George Rockwell L llic shrewdest
real estate speculator iu Cicero, 111., or
probably anywhere else. He owned a
farm worth $500, and suit! it almost
simultaneously to live persons, and got
the money before cither of the purcha
sers found out tlie deceit. As farmer
Schultz went around early in the mor
ning to look at his acquisition, lie met
his neighbor, Mr. Mullen, another of
the buyers. Each knew that the other
had been looking at the farm, but of
course thought himself the owner.—
''Mighty nice piece of ground," said
Schultz. "Hang up," replied Mullen,
heartily. Schult/, opened his eyes wide
because naturally he had expected de
preciation. "Guess you don't want to
buy now." he remarked. ''No, 'cause
I've bought," asserted Mullen taking a
receipt for the money out of ids pocket.
Schultz had just such a paper, and so,
they were not long in learning, had
Hie three other purchasers. They look
ed for Rockwell, but he had gone.—
Next they tried to decide which had
bought ihe land first, aud so was the
real owner, but finally they agreed that
a more equitable plan would be to de
cide by lot whose the land should be.
A drawing of slips from a hat settled

THE REPUBLICANS CONCEDE
TIliDEN'S ELECTION IN
NEW YORK.
The Troy Whig, Republican, gives
up the State. Its correspondent in
this city gives Mr. Tilden 45,000 ma
jority in tho metropolis, and declares
that "Mr. Tilden will go over Bpuyten
Duyvil Creek with at least 00,000 ma
jority." Says the correspondent; "I
have tried to figure it less ; but I can
not but hope some change for the bet
ter will cheer thc hearts of the Repub
licans before tlie election. Will tlie
other part of the State raise the major
ities sufficient to overcome this great
majority ? I can't see where it is to
come fro m." __
Before*the war, under a Democratic
administration, the cost of the Federal
Government was under $75,(XX),000.—
Now it is over >400,000,000; yet "we
une at peace with all the world and thc
rest of mankind." Where do all these
millions go? _

majority to tho House of Représenta- |
t'ves ol tlio tinted Stales, it will pas-. Read
Lolland lias already given Ins support to then
it, and on its filial passage will giyo his I mau
votein support of it. What are its de- 1 b es,
grading, shameful, outrageous and dis- 1 0Ond
gracing provisions? Read for yourselves tbo
—read closely and thoughtfully ; and act I bu
for your own—for your wives' and for of
your children's sake. I cannot, for want
of space, give you tho whole bill, but 11 ty
will give you tlie section which contains 1 ,„
its force, its ruinous principles: "Timt I
all persons within the jurisdiction of the I wc
Unitod States shall bo entitled to the I ored
full and equal enjoyment of tho accom-1
modations, advantages, facilities, prn-i-1 tbu
leges of inns, publie conveyances on land a!ia0

or in part by general taxation; and ot I a3
cemeteries so supported, subject only to I ba
tlie conditions and limitations establish-1
ed by law and applicable alike to citizens I you
of every race and color, regardless of any I lt
previous condition of servitude." This is |
tho main provision of the bill. This is I tbu
what affects your race, your manhood, b
your comfort and your honor. They tell I
you this is no issue before the people. I tlX)
They would lead you into a false securi- i g
ty. They would blind you that they 1 ia
may the more easily lead you to ruin, lt m
has already passed tlio Senate and they I w
aro pledged to pass it through the House p
if they elect a majority of the members.
Read and ponder weil before you vote I
for Lofland—before you voto to sanction I y0
such a nefarious, devilish bill as this. I
Think before you fasten upon yourself |
aud your fellow citizens a leprosy that |
the waters of tlio world cannot wash out. I i„
What does it force upon you? That the I
nogro shall bo entitled to the "full and I b
equal enjoyment sf tho accommodations, I
advantages, facilities and privileges of
inns." Now look at this provision for j
one moment; a dirty, drunken, lousy
negro presents himself at tlie Clayton
House anil demands admittnneo us a
lodger, to bo "accommodated ;" to have
tlio "advantages" of tlio shelter of that
beautiful homo for the weary traveler,
and tho courteous and gentlemanly Col.
Sawyer says, no. you cannot come in
kero ; what does this law say ? That "all i
persons within the jurisdiction ot tlie I
United States shall bo entitled to full
and equal enjoyment of the accommoda- 1
tions, advantages." &c. What will the j
Colonel do when tho filthy brute points 1
him to this law ? ITo must admit him orJ
suffer the penalty ; aud what is it? ''Ç500 I
fine and imprisonment lor one year." I
Suppose lie admits, or, in other words, is
compelled to admit lum. He would then
Sd ÂitÂÎ llouse and
take ilia seat beside tho most beautiful
and elegantly dressed lady there, tilth,
vermin and all. Again suppose that the
Colonel makes tlie plea of liis house be-1
ng full, but the negro has discovered I
that there is a room with two beds in it, 1
and but one occupied ; ho demands that I
bed. If he refuses, tlio negro will poult
to tho law anil say, I claim "equal enjoy

will affect tho masses. My fellow citi-1
