The question was upon the motion of
Camerou, of Pennsylvania, to recom
mit the bill, witn the instruction to

gard to the navy. During tbe debate
which followed, Williams Imorrupted
and offered an amendment to be pro
posed to tbe sundry civil bill, diiect-

what would be a just and reasonable
compensation for the services rendered
by Charles H. Reed in the defense of

lowance therefor, not exceeding #5,000.

of the appropriation committee, said
the reduction iu the item for the mis
cellaneous pay of the navy under the
new arrangement was #186,525 aud sim
ilar savings occurred* iu other items. If

London, July 27.—In the house of
lords to-day Lord Carlington, lord
privy seal, moved I lie second reading
to the arrears of rent (Ireland) hill.
The Marquis of Salisbury, conserva
tive, sail lie approved that part of the
arrears of rent bill relative to the laws
and provisions for emigration, but ho
thought that it would be very difficult
to obtain proofs of a tenant’s inability
to pay his rent, lie said he hoped no
more draftH would be drawn ou the
wisdom of the sub-commissioners who
had been appointed as political parti
sans aud the principle of whose
decisions was inscrutable. If
the government did not moan confisca
tion, lot them make the bill optional
for the landlord. There should be
some inquiry as to what class of land
lords it was who accumulated arrears
of rent in order to evict a tenant before
thi9 act of plunder was com
mitted. Landlords .should be
free as tenants' to enter
iuto arrangements under the bill. The
bill containing, as it did, some pro
visions of which he heartily approved,
could not property be ejected at this
time, but in assenting to a second
reading, he protested against iis dan
gerous principles, and would not sup
port it at any future stage unless these
dangers were removed.
The bill then passed at its second
reading.

attempting to intimidate editors
In the criminal court, this morning
Merrick i ose und said that before be
ginning the regular proceedings liefelt
hound to call the attention of the court
to certain circutnstances which placed
tho government under great disadvan
tage in the presentation of their
evidence. He wished to move for e
rule upon A. C. 'Buell, editor of I lie
Capital, a .‘Sunday paper, to show cause
why lie should not he punished lor con
tempt of court. In an article published
in that paper on July 23d, he bad
charged Welsh with perjury and false
hood and had used other abusive ami
libelous language. He also desired a
rule upon Buell, Helm, Iimgwalt,
Hock and E Brady, brother of the de
fendant. representatives and trustees
of the livening Critic, and upon C K
Harris,. one of the euilors of
that paper, for similar abuse ol
Walsh and of ex-Attorney Gen
eral McVeagh and ex-Postmant* r
Ger.oral .1 amts. Iu those articles, the
first part published one day and the
second upon another day, these gentle
men had beeu abmod in the same un
couth vitupera ive language. They
were still witnesses under poooess of
court and had not been discharged.
Merrick then read Rome oi the head
lines from the article, such as “Muo-
Vuigh gets muddled,” “Lying Tom
James on the stand,” and so ou. These
three gentlemen from some rea
son seem to have been objects
of the most. vituperative as
saults, while under charge of the
court, and while giviug testimony.
These articles were intended to inti mi-
da-e and Irighten other wlinc-nse" fiom
giving testimony, and places the
government at. a great disadvantage in
obtaining witnesses, for the reason that
sensitive gentlemen felt an unwilling-
api eir and become objects of
such abuse. He wished to file motions
to serve notice upon the other side, and
call them at. the proper time.
Tattoo, in reply, called attention to
articles in New York papers, great
dallies as they were called, in which
-icies reflecting upon the court i self,
well as upon the defendants, had ap-
I oared from day to day. Tim court
said it would not do to set oil’one crime
against another. Both parties would
brought to punisiuneutif theebarge*
were true. So lar as tho assaults upon
tho court were concerned, he had never
them. Sometimes he received an
anonymous article, but he threw
i tho waste basket wit li
mit reading it. It seeintd im
possible to have a lair trial in this
country anyway, because of tho news
papers. There might, however, be
some advantages iu a free press. Tbe
court warned iho jury against paying
any attention to the newspaper#.
Honest and upright men had ceased
lo pay any attention to thorn, and pub
lic opinion could not be influenced by
a newspaper bought ami controlled by
interested partie-. So far from having
any Influence upon the court, they
would be treated with the utmost con
tempt.
When this trial began there seemcl
to have boon a consorted atiack upon
the court, not upon tho jurv, for so lar
they had expressed no opinion, and
no* upon the witnesses, for none had
been summoned. An opinion in one
direction on one day seemed to have
an effect ou these witnesses, and
a decision in another direc
tion upon a later day would call
fourth the bitterest censure.
If the i arties in interest thought they
were going to help their case by these
articles, they wore mistaken. These
hired scribblers were living upon their
means. It was a loss of money. The
court finally gave Merrick leave to file
ids motions and the trial was pro
ceeded with, the day being mainly oc
cupied by a contention between coun
sel. *

clude that his moral make u‘p lias
no influence on his present conversa

A WOMAN** UKKOIMN.
Osceola Sentlual.l
In connection with the White
Breast Bottom, Iowa, storm, we
wish to speak of the heroic conduct
of Mrs. Carey, a young married lady,
w ho was stopping with Mrs. Wi es
for the night. About 9:30 or 10 p. ni.
the bunks of the creek began to ovet-
flow, and soon the water began
coming iuto the house; the whole
bottom was a black und roaring body
of water; the ruin was pouring down
in torrenti-; tin*cloud overhung the
sky like a velvet curtain, and the
thunder was terrific. Mrs. Carey
took one little hoy, aged about nine,
and.Mrs. Wiles’ baby, but six weeks
old, left the house and started for the
high ground. Reaching the garden
fence, perhaps one hundred feet
from tile house, she found the cur
rent eo strong that she could not
keep her footing. Her clothes be
came entangled iu a barb wire fence.
Fortunately she was at the foot of a
tree. Helping the hoy to climb the
tree she huudid him tlie baby to hold
a moment The waters were raging
all about faeraud were rapidly rising.
She must act quickly. With great
presence of mind she disengaged her
self liy tearing her dress from tier
person, and swung herself iuto the
tree. Assisting the boy to climb
further up she look the baby ami held
it and herself by oue foot and one
hand to that swaying tree for three
long hours aue till rescued by men,
who swam in to her and brought her
aud the children away by Hie aid of
ropes. When the men readied her
she said, “save the baby first.” The
herohm of this noble little woman
who thus saved these children—the
children of another—deserves to he
mentioned in song.
TheKeelyMotor.—Mr. William
Boekel, the Philadelphia machinist
who was selected by Mr. Keely as u
proper person to study ins mysterious
motor and satisfy the doubts of the
stockholders of tlie Keely Motor
Company, lias been pursuing his
studies now for about three months
without learning anything tangible
in regard to the wonderful engine.
When tlie stockholders met and de
termined to demand some proof from
tlie inventor that the stock for which
they had expended their money
really represented something that
existed beyond tlie limits of Hie al
iened inventor’s imagination, Keely,
after some dignified resentment,
finally offered to explain tlie mys
teries of his discovery to one pi rsott,
and Boekel was tlie man
chosen. As the weeks have
passed and B ickel lias learned
nothing that lie did not know
before, the stockholders are again be
coming suspicious. Tiie Philadelphia
Times says that as Boekel had been
employed to manufacture certain
purls of the marvelous machine, some
of tlie stockholders objected to him
from the first,aud declared that his
selection was pre-arranged. Mean
while Boekel visits Kelly's factory
daily, and the people dwelling in tlie
neighborhood are frequently Martini
by the sounds of terrific txplo-ions
iu the building. The enemies of tlie
inventor say that he explodes large
quantities of gun-powder there for tlie
sake of effect, ami they have deter
mined, if Buekei lias not told them
something to satisfy them by Tues
day of next week, that they will con
sole themselves with a monster mass-
meeting lor the purpose of expressing
indignutiou. Mr. K>ely, however,
does not appear lo be alarmed, and
compluoeuily speeds biH new trotting
horse over the diives iu Fairmouut
Puik on pleasant afternoons.
The Principle is General.—
The rumor that me republican con
gressional committee has assessed
Mrs. Gal field 2 per cent, on tlie late
president’s saiury may not be true,
but any person who defends tlie po
litical assessment iu any case should
not find anything improper in it.
Mrs. Garfield is now iu very easy
financial circumstances, and can wen
afford to remit tlie regular percentage
of Hie year’s salary properly voted to
her by congress. She never would
miss it, end, of course, she lias repub
lican principles at heart as unieh as
the laundress at tlie Carlisle Indian
school, or a submarine toiler at Hell
Gate. A defender of the system like
Congressman Robeson, of New Jer
sey, or Senator Hale, of Maine, or
any other republican congressman
who does not denounce it, is estopped
from criticising any application. In
deed, tlie assessment of a poor clerk,
laborer or teacher, is a great deal
meaner than tlie assessment of Mrs.
Garfield would he— first, because tlie
former cannot aflonl to pay, and sec
ondly, because they are in tlie power
o( men who make tiie assessment.—

July 24th, 1882
Jfon. Patrick Walsh, Chairman of
lhr Richmond Delegation:
My Dear Hir—I sieze this, tin*
earliest occasion of my arrival at
home, ol returning to you—and
through you—to all nty friends,
whether members or not of tlie recent
convention in Atlanta, my sincere
thanks for their warm and* generous
support of me for congressman-at-
large. Their enthusiastic and self-
sacrificing efforts to secure my per
sonal advancement will always lie
gratefully remembered among tiie
most cherished recollection* of my
life. 11 will always he pleasant, too,
to recollect that nothing occurred
during the excited canvass calculated,
in tho slightest degree, to mar the
kindly relations which had always
existed between opposing candidates
and myself, or (hose who so ardently
supported us. We all entered the
lists as friends, and I have every
reason !• behove that we left tiie
field with our friendships for each
other not only not impaired, hut
streugtnened and cemented. I feel
hut oue regret, and that is, that in
the hurry attendant upon the closing
scenes of the convention, 1 did not
have tlie opportunity of expressing
to tlie assembled delegates, my hear
ty acceptance of tlie results of Hie
contest.
It is tlie duty of a true democrat
always to yield cheerftil acquiescence
to the fairly expressed will of tiie ma
jority of his party—iir% much as it is
the duly of a good citizen, in a free
form of government, to obey the will
of tlie people lawfully expressed at
the ballot box. In no other way can
party harmony be strengthened and
maintained. When tlie majority Inis
spoken we must sacrifice our opinions,
and make the views of tlie majority
our owu. Such was tiie advice of
tlie great apostle of democracy and
tiie founder of tlie party—Thomas
Jefferson. In a celebrated letter to
Mr. Duane, a Philadelphia editor,
who had been indulging in severe
riticism on Mr Madison’s adminis
tration, written April 30, 1811, Mr.
Jefferson thus expresses himself on
Hie subject of duty to party :
“I think an editor should be inde
pendent, thut is of personal influence
and not lie moved from his opinions
on the mere authority of any indi
vidual. But witli respect to the gen
eral opinion of the political section,
with which lie habitually accords,
his duty seems very like tlmt of a
member of cougress. Suite of these
indeed think thut independence re
quires of them to follow always their
own opinion, without respect for tlmt
of others. This has never been my
opinion nor my practice, when I
have been of that or any other body.
Differing on a particular question
from those whom I knew to tie of Hie
sarne political principles with my
self and with whom I generally
thought aud acted, a consciousness of
tlie fallibility of the human mind,
and of my own in particular, with a
respect for tlie accumulated judgment
of my friends, lias induced me to
suspect erroneous impresssions
in myself, to suppose my own
opinion wrong, aud to act with them
ou theirs. The want of this spirit of
compromise, or of seifdistrust, proud
ly but falsely called independence, is
wliut gives tiie Federalists victories
which they could never obtain if
these brethren could learn fo respect
the opinions of their friends more
than of their enemies. I state these
considerations because they have
often quieted my own conscience in
voting and acting on the judgment
of others against my own,'and be
cause they may suggest doubts to
yourself in the present case. If the
measures which have been pursued
are approved by the majority, it is
Hie duty of tlie minority to ac quiesce
and conform.” — Randall's Life of
Jefferson, vol. Ill, p 858.
it is in tii in spirit that those who
have been disappointed in the selec
tion of candidates of their choice for
either governor or congressman-at-
large should acquiesce in the will of
the majority; should seek to believe
that tlie majority in making the nom
inal ions were actuated alone by what
they conceived to be for the highest
und best interests of tlie parly, and
should unite with that majority, in
now lay i ng aside a 11 pri vale con si do r-
ations and personal preferences, and
should enter on tlie great duties of
the campaign “not as a holiday rcc
reation, hut ve ry much in that spirit
of consecration in which the soldier
enters battle.”
The coming contest is but prelim
inary to tiie presidential campaign of
1884, and it is our drty. in this eun-
va-s, toso solidify the Georgia demo
cracy that it will prove no uncertain
element in winning the great victory
—which, we trust in find, yet awaits
the party of the constitution in that
grand national struggle. We have
the same enemy to contend with
against whom we* fought in 1868, ls72,
1870 and 1880. With the close of the
war—and the settlement of the issues
which grew out of it —Hie republican
party had accomplished its mission.
Its history since lias been a
history of repeated efforts to per
petuate its power at the expense
of the liberty of the citizen Under
(Irani, in tlie exercise of military and
despotic tyrrany—witli a spirit akin
to that of ('rornwell, it entered with
armed force the halls of legislation,
and drove out the representatives of
tiie people. At Hie close of his term,
under tiie forms of tiie electoral hill,
it transmitted its power to Hayes by
fraud and corruption. The party of
tlie constitution still survives, and
this same radical party now seeks,
under the guise of imiepondentism,
to seduce our people from their alle
giance, and enable tnein, in the Ian*
guageof Mr. Jefferson (just
that we will always find them, like
the white plume of King Henry, of
Navarre, in tlie path to honor and
glory.
W itli a firm and abiding confidence
in tiie ultimate triumph of democrat
ic principles, as enunciated liy Jeffer
son—in our contests, state and
national, aud on Hie success of which
free government depends.

Tlie Army Worm.
The Nashville American of the
18111 of May annouiices through its
advices from diflereut counties of tlie
state of Tennessee, tlie presence of
tlie army worm in the wheat fields
and meadows of tiinseeounties. Tlie
following method of destroying these
destructive pests, by ditching, is pre
sented iu that paper. We reproduce
it here because it appears to us as the
only partial triumph over these un
welcome visitors to our fruitful fields:
“An intelligent farmer friend of tlie
American says the idea of going over
an extensive meadow witli a syringe
has too much of the ludicrous aspect
of Gulliver'H fire department in the
eontl ignition among tiie Ltllput resi
dences. He lias concluded, there
fore, to mow his meadows not yet in
vaded, and take his chances for tho
after moth. The second line of de
fense suggested l»y tlie agricultural
department is to confine the worms
to the fields in which they appear,
tint tlie destruction of them, also,
when they attempt to migrate to
other fields. This is done by tiie
means of ditches and pits dug around
the infested field or that to lie
protected. The ditches can lie made
quite rapidly. First plow a furrow
with tlie “land slide” next to the
field to lie protected, and then with a
spade make this side of tlie furrow
vertical, or, if tlie soil lie compact
enough to admit of it overhanging.
When Hie ditch is completed, holes
should lie dug in it from one foot
to eighteen inches deep and from
twenty to thirty feet apart. Tlie
sides of these holes shold also lie ver
tical, or if possible, overhanging.
The worms, unable to climb up the
vertical side of Hie ditch, will crawl
along the bottom of It, and fall in the
boles, where they will soon perish.
Where the soil is sandy, so that tlie
ditch cannot lie made witli a vertical
side, it should lie dug deeper than in
other cases, and tlie side made as
nearly perpendicular as possible, so
Hint when tiie worms attempt to
crawl up the sand will crumble be
neath them and cause them to fall
hack again. The soil can lie kept
frialde by drawing a bundle of brush
along the ditch, or by burning straw
in it.
“The degree of success and tlie
amount of labor attending the use of
this method of defense depend upon
tho promptness with which it is
adopted. If a close watch lie kept of
the grain fields and meadows during
late spring and early summer, tlie
presence of the worniscan he detected
before they begin to migrate. It will
then he only necessary to inclose, by
means of ditches, those parts of tlie
fields in which the worms are found ;
and frequently these localities are
very limited. But if tbe work be de
layed until later in Hie season, after
the. worms have heiruu to migrate, it
will be found difficult to confine
them, and it .will probably be neces
sary instead of this to surround by
ditches the fields to he protected,
especially any lieJds of corn that nmy
be in thv vicinity of Hie infested dis
trict
“Numerous other remedies have
been proposed, hut we know of none
which are practicable except on a
small scale or under especially favor-
aide conditions. If tlie work of de
struction he general, however, over
the state the ravages of die pest may
he materially reduced and Hie spread
of the crawlers confined and many
fields be thus preserved.”

ets 5 (iiH) feet above its crater, while
in 1851 the blazing mass, struggling
for an outlet, roared so that, its awful

miles. In 1797 tlie crater in T’ungii-
rangua, one of tiie great peaks of Hie
Andez, flung out torrents of mud
which dammed up the rivers, opened
new lakes, ami in valleys 1,000 feet
wide, made deposits 600 feet deep.

The Boss Blackbird Story —

they were at work on tlie prairie bo-
tween tlie Detroit, Grand Haven and
Milwaukee road and Grand river, we
walked over there this forenoon to
see. Tlie story proves to be too true.

been hurried over. Millions of Hie
worms are at work, and almost every
blade of the grass lias been attacked
They appeared some time last week
on tlie piece of ground owned by tlio
Hon. George W. Webber, and have
been und appear to he still travelling
westward. They had not readied the
high-water road this morning,
hut were pushing on vigor
ously in that direction. Myriads
of blackbirds, yellow birds and
robins were hovering over the place
most infested, evidently making a
meal of the worms. Justin front of
the right flank of tlie army of worms
is a corn field, and along tin* east
fence, which separates it from tho
meadow, aline of blackbirds were
stationed, iu as good order as if mar
shaled for a fight, under a military
leader. They would fiy in a solid
mass to the ground, as if attacking
something, and then fall hack to the
position ou th« fence, from which
they repeatedly advanced in a body.
"Those birds,” said John JI. Welch,
who was with us, “are protecting that
corn ” Surely enough, examination
showed that tlie pestiferous insects
had come up to the fence, but hud not
gone an inch beyond, and none could
he seen on tlie corn. But a large
number of dead worms could he seen
on the ground where the birds had
been east of the fence. It is certain
tlmt the birds had made havoc with
Hie worms, and it really looked as if
they had a design in it to keep them
out of the corn-field. Who will kill
