rne duplication Of III. Laws.

Tho Voorhees, Committee listened TO .
vast deal Of misleading az
Trenton on Saturday regarding the pup
1ication OF the laws. and the members
and sheir counsel expressed some very
Hl-consldered views upon the subject. Al
4be same time. they reduced to mathe-
NAUTICAL certainty the abuses in the prem
ICES which had previously been matters
of surmise. s.
The law in this State holds no man
excused from the consequences OF ms
acts on account of ignorance OF the
law. 1t is the duty of every citizen.
Theoretically, to know the substance OF
every statute. In view of this require
ment, the State is assuredly bound IN
morals and reason to so publish it's en-
actments that every person may easily
read them. The question is how this
may be best and most economically d0ne-
One proposition Is that they be printed
In pamphlet form. The previous reyeia-
tons of the Voorhees, Committee anord
sufficient answer to this proposal. When
we hear OF tens of thousands of State
documents being piled up in the cellar
of the State House uncirculated and
uncirculateable, we cannot but laugh at
the proposal to promulgate the laws In
that way. The proposal to mail a copy
to every citizen is equally grotesque and
Illogical. Common sense shows the i'm
possibility Of the undertaking. Besides,
il the State took the responsibility of
direct delivery to individuals, anyone
might at any time claim his failure to
receive his copy as an excuse for viola
tion Of the law.
The logical plan is to publish the laws
In the newspapers, and throw on the
citizens the responsibility of procuring
and reading them. The economical way
to do this is to limit the number of
PAPERS used as much as possible. This
might be done by some such regulations
i the fcIlowing:-
i. The laws shall be printed only In
The English language I'M in papers pub
nshod in English-English being the
language Of the State.
3 They shall be printed in no
paper published in the interests of any
religion. race, class, society OF other

zens This will bar labor sheets. benefit

excrescences III the system.

Off the miserable subservient rags which
live on the designation and are bought
as to their opinions to a greater or less
degree by lis c~onferment.
1t will be fair, however, If any such
limitation as this is made to enact that
failure to secure the designation shall
not disqualify any paper for the publica,
ton OF Sheriffs' or other legal notices,
but that any paper which has been in
constant circulation for two years shall
be authorized to publish them. One rea-
son why the designation is so much
sought after now is that lawyers do not
regard as valid legal publications made
in papers which do not hold this State
designation.

THE QUEENS DONKEY.

Once the Property of q Poor Basque
Peasant.
Queen Victoria, during her recent So
journ at Cimiez, on the French Med
~iterranean coast, was often seen to
drive, on pleasant afternoons, a very
sleek and comfortab]e-looking donkey.
The aged queen, holding the reins her
self, seemed greatly to enjoy her drive,
and the c%omplacency of the donkey
suggested that he almost understood
the honor which was being done him.
This donkey, whose name is Jocko, has
an interesting history.
During a previous sojourn in the
same district, says the Youths Com
panion, the queen was one morning en-
joying herself incognita, in the open
air at Acquisgrana, when she saw a
peasant leading along by the bit a don
kew which looked as if he had once been
a fine animal OF his KIND, but low
seemed to be almost starved. He was
lean, languishing, evidently suffering.
The queen asked the man If his DON
key was for sale.
"That depends, signora,' said the
man eff I were to sell him, now, how
should l get my living?'
"How much did you pay for him."
"a hundred francs"
II will give you two hundred, and
you can buy another donkey"
The man sold him to the unknown
"signora," and poor Jocko at once be-
gan q new life. Abundantly fed and
carefully groomed, he blossomed out as
a royal favorite. The story spread, and
the queen conld take no more prom
enades with convenience, for she was
certain to encounter every day several
peasants who tried to sell her decrepit
and half. starved donkeys. She bought
none of them.
During her late visit the queen drove
through Acquisgrana with Jocko, and
his former owner, the peasant, saw the
equipage go by. The donkey was fat,
glossy and glittering with buckles Of
silver and gold.
"Alas!" exclaimed the peasant.
"WhenI sold the donkey, why didn't 1

it is to take the brands Of all stock ship
