the necessity Of the interposition OF any mill
tary force by this Government, thus confirm
ing me in my early impressions that nothing
moro had been designed from the first by
those associated with Mr.. Dorr than to excite
foar and apprehension, and thereby to obtain
concessions from the constituted authorities
which might be claimed as n triumph over tho
existing Government. With the dispersion Of
Mr.. DORIS troops ended all difficulties. A con
vention was shortly afterward called by duo
course of law to amend tho fundamental law,
and a new Constitution, based on more liberal
principles than that abrogated, was proposed,
and adopted by the people. Thus tho great

ment. under the influence OF opinion and not of

knows as little about James X. Polk as about
John Tyler. Nevertheless, the former. like the
latter. had been q very distinguished man and
had attained a national reputation before he
was elected President. The truth is that before
the civil war such men as Hayes. Garfield. Ar
thur, and Cleveland would have had no chance
of being nominated for the Presidency. The
smallest man raised to the Chief Magistracy
In ante-bellum times was Franklin Pierce. He
was a unique exception to a general rule, yet
oven he was far better known to the country at
large in 1882 than was Grover Cleveland in
1884. As for Polk, he had not only, as we shall

In his second annual message President Polk
reviews at length the many and great causes of
complaint which Mexico had given TO the United
States since the establishment Of Mexican inde-
pendcnce. He then proceeds to argue that the an
~nexation OF Texas to the United States coEstitut-
ed no just cause OF offence to Mexico. Tho pre-
text that 1t did so was. he maintained, wholly in
consistent and irreconcilable with well-authenti-
Gated facts connected with the revolution by
which Texas became Independent Of Mexico.

NOT A DOG.

A very good story has been
going the rounds over the coun-
try and it is good enough to bear
repeating at this time. A Ger
man farmer was visiting a city
friend and they were sitting on
the porch Of the latter's club,
when a very fine specimen of a
Newfoundland dog trotted by on
the sidewalk in front.
"That's very fine dog,' re-
marked the city friend.
"Dot's no dog" replied the
German farmer. "I'm the dog
and you're de dog"
"How do you make that out?"
"Vell | will dell you. In de
