Canadians seem to bo getting
long pretty well in the settlement of their bargain for the territory of the Hudson's Bay Company. If nothing happens to prevent it, we may soon see that vast region of wi'deraess added to the new Dominion. Very possibly an effort will be made to build a railroad through it to the Pacific, but the success of such an undertaking is much more doubtful. It has been about as much a9 the United States could do to build such a road, and Canada can hardly ruise the mouey for another one at presest. But we are glad to see this great scheme of annexation advancing so successfully. It is only t'ue precursor to another one that will be still larger

When we consider that that paper has crawled thus far on its course without possessing a tithe of that quantity ef cerebral tissue, its reckless extravagance in calling fur a whole "thimbleful" is astonishing.

Tbe vision that can see encouragement in a degree of cowardice that dares not bring out a ticket, must be sharp indeed and who can withhold bis tributo of admiration from the "organ" that grinds a cheerful strain over election returns, which show tbat the only candidate of its politioal stripe polled but 504 voles in a total of 1,760? Sucb are the facts concerning the election of Monday, and tbe Dsmocracy must be in a fearful strait if they can find consolation in tbe contemplation thereof,

confidence, on being able to regain much of their lost ground through the agency of tbe propoied Fifteenth Amendment It was to divide the Republican party, and would cortainly result in large Democratic gains in the Spring elections. It would give them Connecticut, help them

Well, what have they re*lized They find nothing cheerful in the returns from Connecticut or Rhode Isiand, whilo in the various municipal elections held in different parts of tbe country tbe Republican party has been generally successful, and has mtni fested greater power and more thorough organization than ever before.

Compared witb this, his Baltimore slur at bis successor as being a willing "slave to Congress,'' was a compliment. All the blood

in defenco of that Constitution of which Mr.

Cbaqin,
chairman
of the committee to' audit and control the contingent ..expenses of. the Senate.— After quoting the law in reference thereto, and stating to whom tbfe power of appointment is given, the committee say that the number of persona employed the past few years has been largely in excasg of the number limited by statute. The. law of 1854 also gives the ages
of
Grimes
pages
to be employed as not less than thirteen years of age, and not more than seventeen. The committee believe that from $60,000 to$100,000 oan ba.faffed annually, if Senators will only assisi thorn, and not press the Sergeaut-a'.-Artns for tho appointment of persons wbenibe exigencies of business do not require it, ar.d when provision has been tnado therefor. Senator
remarked, after the raci
ng of the report, that the pages employ^ ed a few years ago wero worth much In ore than those at present on duty. He complained tbat the lads were too young, and not calculated to go upon erritntis outside of the Capitol, which-was- very often required of thym.
From this it would seom that it i? not beneath the dignity of those "most patent, grave and reverend" Senators to crowd children into places at th« public ciib in violation of law. Wonder it' they go snacks" with the "little bubs" in Ue mntler of pay?
Be it enacted, $c.,

That section 20 be so amended that in caso of distilleries having & producing capacity of lass than 10O gallons in 21 hours, in which grain or meal is mixed by hmd, and witbout the U3e of bteam, 60 gallons of mash, or beer, brewed or fermented, from grain, shall represont not lesi than ten bushels of grain.
Tbat section 56 be amended so us to extend the time for withdrawing distilled spirits from bonded warehouses until the 30th of June 1869, but sul ject to an additional tax to each proof gallon deposited in bonded warehouse at the raio of one cent for each month after
April 1869, and until withdraWD
Xhat section 59 be ^memjed
for
geries. Tbe author of those letters is not fit to hold any office under an administration tbat proposes to reform the public service. There is no honest man in the United States who does not fool that such an appointment is calculated to bring reproach upon the entire Republican party. We can stand heavy installments of "kith and kin/' and don'tcomplain oi strong column of "personal friends," for, so far as we know, they are good men, but we protest, in the name of decency, against this
Ashley's
appointment, un
less he can prove that he did not write those letters, or at least put in a "general denial," which is more than he has ever attempted as yet.
Strike out the fourth paragraph thereof relating to retail liquor dealers, and the fifth paragraph to' and including the
words "shall be required to pay tbe special tax of wholesale liqaor dealers," and insert in li«u^ of it tho following
Retail dealers in liquors shall pay $25 Every person who sells or offers for sale foreign or domestic distilled spirits, wineor malt liquors in less quantities than five gallons at the same timo, shall be regard, ed as a retail dealer in liquors

Details of an Awful Tragedy-
Chicago,
April 9 —The funeral of
"Ira. Gray and her four children murdered by the insane farther took place at Oak dale, Minnesota, tc-day, and was attended by people from the surrounding coun try in large numbers.
Gray is strongly ironed in jail. He Qas lucid intervals, aod when in that condition is terribly borne down by his crime
Tbe St. Paul papers of yesterday contain the following additional particulars of tbe Gray tragedy at Qakdale, Minne sota:
Upon entering the dwelling a most shocking scene met tbe eyes. In the back part of the room are two beds, one on each side. That on tha right was occupied by the father,, mother and little girl.* The one to the left directly in front of tbe door, by tbe other children. The pillows of the.latter :Were saturated with blood, and,the bed was so tumbled as to indicate a considerable struggle. Tbo other bed was no more disarranged than it would naturally be in the morning Upon tbe floor between the beds and tbe door lay the murdered children placed in a row, the largest nearest the foot, of tbe bed and the smallest, a sweet, mild fact, light-haired little girl between two and three years of age, nearest, the door.— Bach one of them had their throats out bo thoroughly as to almost sever tbeit beads from their bodies. Tbete -undwere of tbe most horrible description. They were at least three, or four inchein width, and extended clear across from eaf^t ear. Besides the gssbes in bethroat there was ai^ugly one on the lower left jiw of Maggie, -the eldest girl'.lace. The horrible gashes were given while tbe fatbec was kneeling upon ttu breasts of his children, with tho blade oi an pzs in his bands, jamming the same down thoir throats. This accjunts fur the gash in Maggie's left jaw, aa well as fr ihe depth of the wounds in tbo throat* of his victims.
Tbe blow of the ax that killed the little girl went crashing through the bones of the breast and neck, to that one could look under tbe bresttbone. Inthegranary lay the corpse of the wife arid mother. This is an old' shell of a building entirely empty, a desolate' and lonesome place- Mrs. Gray lay with her feet to the door and hor face to the floor, in a puddle of blood, with her left arm extended parallel to the body. The only cloth ing she had on was a coarse cotton night dreasjfa rough short coat belonging to aer husband, which she, had evidently put on to protect h6r from the cold morning air, whilo she accompanied her busband to the baruyard, and a pair of ooarse shoss, which, in her baste she had left untied.
She was a middle aged woman, with a pleasant countenance, and about thirty years of age. Her night dress was open front, and upon her breast aud other parts of ber body were seven wounds, her husband had given her with the carving knife. Through one of them ber intestines protruded. Her throat was aisc cut from ear to ear, aud her face and the front part of her body were covered with blood, presenting an indescribably revolting and sickening sit bt.

need it regularly and often set a pitcher of water in a room, and in a few hours it will bavo absorbed all the respired gasses in it, the air of which will become pure, but the water utterly filthy. The colder tbe water is the greater the capacity to contain these gases. At ordinary temperature a pail of water will contain a pint of carbonic acid gas and several pints of ammonia. .The cap* ity is neariy doubled by reducing the water to the temperature of Ice. Hence water kept in a r«om a while is always unTlt for use.
the same reason tbe water from
a pump should always be pumped up in the morning bofore any of it is used. Impure water is more Injurious than impure air. The above proves bow exceedingly careless many of us are as regards oui neaitb, for we venture to say that a large majority of tbe people use water for drinking which has "absorbed" for hour* tbe noxious gases of their rooms.
