NORTHERN TRIBUNE OQcial Papar of Cheboygan County. SATURDAY. MAY 13, 1870. ENCOURAGE ImiGUATION. The Tribune has at various times spoken of iho advantages to be derived from the encouragement of immigration to this county. . Tlie fact is becoming more generally known that this section is a producing couutry. That almost all kinds of cereals can be successlully and profitably cultivated in our 6oiI,and even now there rrc many farms being cleared up and improved, and cultivated to a limited rxtent, and we heir of no one w ho is dirsatistied with their experiment. On the contrary, so far as we know, those who have settled on lands in this county are perfectly satisfied with their pros pects, and are confident of a successful future. Of course they do not expect to :;ttain this success without labor, nor do we wish to convey the idea abroad that there are no obstacles to be overcome by the settler in opening up and cultivating a farm, bnt we do contend that there are many advantages in the favor of the im migrant to this county, among which is a icdy market for the sale of the products 01 his farm. The demand so far has been great ly in, excess of the amount produced, ne cessitating the bringing in from outside markets the greater portion of the wheat and Hour, oats, hay and other articles that arc necessary for subsisting man and beast during the work of getting out the logs from our vast forests to supply our ' numerous mills. Now this all might be . raised in this county, were there sufficient land cultivated, and the cost of piadueing would be no greater than that ot the sec tions which now raise it, while the price realized would be greater than those re ceived in other sections,for the supply and demand, necessarily regulates the price, and as long a3 the supply produced is not sufficient to meet the home consumption, it will follow that the price paid in other markets, with the additional cost of freight and handling will govern the price in this market, and the prospects arc that for some years to come the de mand will be constantly on the increase, thii3 affording a ready market for a great ly increased production. There arc vast quantities of fine farming lands iu this county, within easy access of this mar ket, that are yet uncultivated, and are awaiting the arrival of industrious set tlers to open them up and cultivate them, and now that spring is here and naviga tion fairly opened, we ma' naturally ex- pect an influx of immigration to set in, and let every effo:t be made to encourage all who may come. Every settler who comes and clears an acre of ground is adding ti the wealth ot the county, and every additional bushel of grain or ton of hay raised is that much more money kept in the county, and when there is a sufficient amount raised here at home to supply the demand the large amount of money that is now annually expended in other markets, will be disbursed, here and the advantages to be derived from this fact can scarcely be estimated. The money being kept at home ail will enjoy more or less benefit from its circiilaiion. . The farmer will receive it for his produce, he will have to expend it in making im provements on his farm and puichasing "as his necessities require from our manu facturers and merchants, and thus in the natural course of trade, all will be bene fited to a greater or loss degree. The different town boards of the county should do all that they can for the encouragement of immigrants to the different towns by opening up roads and and improving those already opened a3 rapidly as the amounts raised for road purposes will admit of. It is to the in terest of the whole community to have good roads, and labor and money ex pended in this way will prove a good in vestment. The prospects are that a number of new settlers will locate in the county during the present season. Many have already secured their land and may soon expected to arrive, and each settler will be have more or les3 influence with friends in the localities from whence they re moved, and in their correspondence with them can do much to encourage further! immigration, and the more favorably they are impressed with the advantages of the location the more probable will it be that their influence will be used the more strongly to promote the interests of the county by inducing further immigration. Let them therefore receive all the en-, couragement from the older settlers, aiid citizens possible in the way ot creating a neighbor!' and friendly feeling, assist them in making their improvements as much as possible and make them feel that they are welcomed to our midst. There are many little courtesies, which cost comparatively nothing, that may be extended iu theway of neighborly acts, which go far towards creating a favora ble impression and a homelike feeling in the minds of those who may locute in diflerent sections of the county, and by all means let these amenities be freely and heartily given, and the beneficial ef fects thereof will be easily manifested, and the more rapid settlement, and con sequent improvement of your . county promoted thereby, and it3 prosperity much advanced. There is no reason why Cheboygan county should not become equal to any . county in the state as a successful farm ing country. All that it needs is the de velopment and systematic cultivation which older counties in the state have received. We feel confident that it is only a question of lime, and that the day is not very far distant when our county will become well and favorably known as an agricultural county. A Madrid dispatch reports that Con gress, by a VDte of 22G to 39, rejected the amendments proposed by theModeradors against the religious toleration clause of the constitution. EpiTOXXIAIi NOTES. . . ine cabinet at a meeting on the 3d mat. arcea 10 terminate the Ashburton extradition treaty with Ureat Britain, and Secretary Fish ha3 telegraphed to London to that effect. The end of the extradition treaty, should it be ended, will, perhaps, bring Tweed to light. First thing the country knows, he will be heard from in Canada, maybe. He will be convenient at the New York election, and his experience will be very valuable to his fellow Demo crats. "Old Abk,'t the famous Wisconsin war eagle who accompanied the Eighth regi ment during the war for the union, start ed, last week, for the Centennial ex position in charge of Johnny Hill, his bearer during the war, who was shot through the body yind left for dead on the battle field at Corinth. In view of the large supply of corn in New York city awaiting transportation 10 jcurope tne sicamsnip companies have doubled their charges for freight They know that the New York Central road has agreed with the owners of this grain to transport it to Liverpool, and the' have the road in their power. Has Mrs. Marsh fled to Canada? She is wanted a3 a witness before the grand jury in Washington, , to testify against Belkuap ; but the District Marshal, after a diligent search, made a return that she cannot be found. The family appears to have a mysterious faculty for disappear ing when particularly wanted. Tub New York assembly adjourned without passing the rapid transit bill for New York city. This is called a victory of the horse car companies, and its cost is put. down at twenty-five thousand dollars. It reminds old New Yorkers of the opposition of the stage and omnibus lines to the horse railroads, when the lat- ter were first proposed. Disraeli said ,hat the title of 'Em press of India" was intended, like a Chinese mask, to frighten Russia and prevent further aggressions in Asia. The Czar evidently doesn't understand what it is meant for, as the Russian embassa dor at London has received orders to ex press the Emperor's congratulations and approval of the new honor. According to the dispatches from Washington to the. journals of both par ties, even including the New York World, the opinion is general that the Senate will decide that it has no jurisdiction in the Belknap impeachment case, Belknap not being an officer when impeached; and thus the House will completely break down once more, and be again convicted of igiorance of the constitution and laws. The President and Secretary of War deny that Gen. Cti3ter was relieved from his command because he was a wi tness iu the Belknap impeachment trial. It was the wish of the President that Gen. Custer, having been subpoenaed as wit ness, should remain and give his evidence. and that in the meantime the Indian ex pedition should be placed under com mand of another officer. Neither the Secretary of War nor General Sherman protested against relieving Custer. Winslow, the alleged forger, was not discharged by the British authorities Wednesday of last week, though, accord ing to the British laws, the time he could be held expired that day. Upon what law or pretence of law he is still held is a puzzle, since the British government refuses to extradite him under the treaty, pleading that its own law is superior to the treaty ; but its own law says that, if not extradited at the enoVof 60 days from the date of hi3 arrest, he must be set free. The South San Francisco Anti-Coolie club and Young Men's Universal Reform society, of San Francisco, California, held a meeting May 2d, indorsing the destruc tion of the Chinese quarter at Antioch, in that state, and advocating a similar course in that city unless the Federal government should take immediate steps to abate, the evil. Highly incendiary let ters were read from societies' in the interi or of the state, seeking co-operation. The sergeant-at-arm3 had received a telegram from New York saying that 2,G00 stand of arms could be delivered in that city at 10 days' notice. ' While such talk and ac tion are universally reprobated by the great mass of thinking people in that city, there can be no doubt that they meet the approval of a large and dan gerous class in the community, and that in the event of ho action being taken in the matter by the General' government, there is grave reason to fear a serious dis turbance at no distant day. The stage routes to the Black Hills at different points are infested with pesky redskins who amuse themselves in firing upon the passengers. Governor Thayer of Wyoming has called upon Gen. Cook for military protection. He wants forces stationed both at Red Canon and Hot Creek. The former is yery deep, and all travel has to pas3 through it. The In dians crawl up its sides and shoot down or throw rocks upon travelers. The Gen. has promised all the protection possible, and an order issued to that effect. The Centennial commission ha3 de cided to close the exposition on Sunday in spite of the requests of a good many Americans and the protests of many for eigners. This action would be generally sustained by the religious element of the country and agrees with the prevailing sentiment outside of the large cities. They are now discussing the propriety of prohibiting the sale of liquors on the grounds. Their sale is said to tbe pro hibited in the park, of which the grounds form a part, by municipal or state law now. kepokts irom tne Baltimore conven I tion show that the Methodists continue their progressive tendencies and substan I tini nm in wuiith nn,i mpmWshin The increase of more than three thousand churches, and over fourteen million do lar3 in the value of church edifices, as shown by the bishop's report, yesterday is a wonderful testimony to the faithfu work of this comparatively young doin ination. There is a war cloud now hanging over eastern Europe, and the near future may see a mighty contest between Rus sia on the one hand and Austria and Turkey on the other. Baron Rodich, a representative of the Austrian govern inent, charges Russia with duplicity to ward the South Sclavonians. The feeling too, of the Russian press ha3 been cx pressed in strong term3 against allowing the oppressed Sclavonians on the Black sea and lower Danube to be overwhelm ed by Turkey and Austria. Some of the Vienna iournals also have been bitter against the Russian policy. CONDENSED NEWS. : Three thousand Sheffield strikers have resumed work at reduced wages. A party pt masked men last week set fire to the coal shaft;at Massilpn, Ohio. Tne British Columbians arc also get ting exciteu over tne Chinese question. Gov.

The Eagle & Phcenix manufacturing company, of Columbia, S. C. last week broke ground lor their third cotton-mill. It! will be.the largest one ever built in the south. Anthony Gehring, a Chicago morning paper carrier, grew jealous of his wife. and killed her Wednesday morning by shooting her. He then killed himself by the same means. The low rates of freight are bringing grain to the sea board in such quantities that the elevators are begining to put up their rates for storage, handling, screen ing, blowing, etc. Patrick Keiley wrtS arrested in Ma- honev City, Pa., May 3rd for murdering John Conroy in January, 1874. On his arraignment he admitted that he shot Conroy in a drunken spree. The failure of the North Adams, Mass- print works is more disastrous than at firt supposed. The liabilities will exceed $1,250,000, and 12,000 men, woman and children in the six mills will be thrown out of employment.
