A black walnut grove that was planted
by a Wisconsin farmer some twenty
years ago on seme waste land was recent- j
ly sold for $27,000. The trees arc now |
from sixteen to twenty inches through.
The Post's Washington special says the !
Senate Committee 011 Elections asked to j
lie discharged from further considera
tion of Warner Miller's case, as the ob
jections raised against him had no
weight.
The surgeons in charge of the Presi
dent's case have refused to send their
bills to Mrs, Garfield's agent at her re
quest, but if the government is willing to
pay them $25,000 apiece, they will not
reject the fee.
There is great excitement in Snyder
county, over the arrest of Joseph Mayer,
011 a charge of murdering a peddler (if teen
years ago. The crime was revealed by
one of the actors in the murder of Kent
zcr and wife.
The Pensacola( Fla) Advance does not
regard Postmaster General James as an
out-of-the-way candidate for President,
and believes that lie would receive as
large a vote in the South as any Repub
lican now 111 oilice.
President Arthur does justice to his j
own intentions and appreciates the special i
circumstances of the case by trca ing the '
Star Route cases as State trials, adopting
them as his own and urging their vigor
ous prosecution.
A company lias been organized ia New
York for supplying the cities of tiie Eas
tern, Middle, Southern and a few of the
Western States, with gas, manufactured
at thecoal mines of Western Pennsylvania,
and conducted to the places of consump
tion through pipes.
A large number of nominations of presi
dential postmasters were sent to the Sen
ate yesterday for consideration, it is
understood that the Inferior Department
will present a number of nominations in a
few days, mostly to fill offices in the In
dian department.
judge David Davis has made an inter
esting discovery, He says Peesident
Arthur's message is the first document of
the sort in forty years that has not re
ferred to the South as a distinctive sec
tion of the country. Perhaps this cir
cumstance is a happy omen of a time not
far distant when the South will be a mere
geographical term and will have no more
political significance than the East or the
West has now.
Charles Nordhoft'in New York Herald
says: There is a lively curiosity about
the contents of this, Mr. Arthur's first
Message. Representatives and Senators
have been engaged ever since their ar
rival in Washington, and some of them
ever since his accession in "taking his
measure," and the universal verdict so
far as men speak their minds is that Mr.
Arthur is an uncommonly, and to most
Congressmen who did not know him, an
unexpectedly able man.
It takes about S3O for every man, wo
man and child in the United States to
make up the currency required to meet all
the needs of the nation. Controller Knox
reports that the aggregate of coin and
paper money in the United States at the
beginning of last month was $1,455,031,-
092. Of this amount $502,508,971 was
gold, $186,037,305 silver, $340,071,010
legal-tender notes and $300,344,250 ua
tional bank notes. The perfection of the
banking system enables our people to
transact their business with a less
amount of money in actual circulation
per capita than any other people 011
earth. .

The >Wr I \irk Tribune •
'•The Leading American Newspaper."
During the year 1882 TIIE TRIBUNE hopes to em
ploy with increasing success the work and the
methods which have won for it so large a measure
of popular approval, it has attained, and means
never to lose the high standard of success which
was aimed at by its founder the largest circulation
among the best people. Ho large a circulation and
one so widely distributed over the entire territory
of the Nation has never been attained by any other
newspaper in the United States. We incept this
fact as the verdict of the American people upon the
conduct and character of the TRIBUNE. Ihe po
sition it occupies could never have been gained nor
retained but by pre-eminent merits as a newspaper
as an organ of sound opinion and an advocate of
just publ'c measures.
In short the TRIBUNE will as heretofore continue
to be the medium of the best thought and the voice
of the best conscience of the time; will keep abre ist
of the highest progress,favor the freest disctnsion,
hear all sides, appeal always to the most enlighten
ed intelligence and the purest morality, and refuse
peremptorily to cater to the tastes of the vile or the
prejud.ees of the ignorant.
The well-known special features of the TRIBUNE
will be careful'j naintained. Its Agricultural De
partment will remain as it is, the fullest and best.
The Household and Young Folks' Departments,the
literary, scientific and religious features, the stand
ard market reports will all be kept up and extend
ed as opportunity may serve.
VALUABLE PREMIUMS.—The TTIBUNE has
never been equaled by any other paper in the per
