Haskell Hasn't the Money.

| have heard the question asked,
why does not Haskell overlook the
methods by which Indictments were
procured and proceed at once to trial
on the facts? ! therefore made this
inquiry myself Of a prominent citizen
Of Muskogeo. He replied, bringing
here the necessarily large number of
witnesses from a thousand miles or
more away, and paying al the other
expenses Of trial. would probably cost
fifteen TO twenty thousand dollars in
cash, Haskell is probably no, worth
one tenth of this sum- Ii cou,d he

money to bear against the nm united
resources OF the opposition. Al"o, we

No wonder the people of the great

1t is one of those peculiar blessings
that is never mixed; it is sheer, abb
solute, perfect, whenever and wher-
ever it falls. Its gentle breath pene-
trates the last faint creyice Of nature
in which turks an atom Of the evil
weather from which the people pray
for surcease; its presence, its action,
its influence, IS complete, swift, sure,
and as 1t blows, the grateful heart re-
Spouse to its lure and finds infinite
pleasure in full relief, fixed assurance,
in the softening, healing, comforting
play Of the rare wind.
