No New SDV Law.
BERLIN, May 6.—There is no truth in the report that the government proposes to have anew spy law enacted in consequence of the Schnaebel affair The police will be strengthened and a detective force will be organized especially to watch spies. An official burgomaster will be appointed in each city containing over 10,000 inhabitants instead of the present elective honofary incumbents.
NOT A BREACH OF PRIVILEGE.
Action ofthe House of Commons In the Times Case. LONDON, May 6—In the Commons last night, after Mr. Gladstone had quoted precedents to show that the attack of the Times on Mr. Dillon was a breach of privilege, the Speaker put tbe question on Sir Edward Clark's amendment that 7)o breach of privilege had been committed. The Parnellite members challenged a division, which resulted in a vote of 297 for the amendment and 219 against it--the amendment thus becoming the substantive of the motion.
The Standard (Tory) condemns the action of the government in seeking to protect the Times when the precedents show that Mr. Gladstone's position was the only correct and just solution. The Liberal press with scarcely an exception, protest against a distinction being made in thie case because the offender happens to be a powerful newspaper that supports the government.

Tbe Senator-elect was born in Martinsburg, Berkley county, W. Va., where he now resides and is about 40 years of age. He is a lawper by profession.

Some Old Papers.
Through the courtesy of Will Noel the GAZETTE has received two old copies of the Illinois Statesman, published at Paris, Ills., one dated July 6tb, 1838 and one Aug. 27th 1841. In 1838 the paper was edited by J. R. Loveless and Jno» Delay and in 1841 by Ephraim Abbott. The space in each is largely taken up with political matter. In Mr. Noel's collection is a tourist's pocket map of Indiana published in 1837. There were no railroads the state then but the map contains a proposed road from Louisville to Chicago via Indianapolis. The National road entering the state just east of Richmond is put down very prominently, as is also tbe Miami Reserve just north of Hamilton and Clinton counties. The population of Marion county (Indianapolis) and Vigo county is put down at 7,192 and 5,766 respec tively. These counties, now among the most populous in the state were then behind Clark, Dearborn, Franklyn, Harrison, Jefferson, Lawrence, Montgomery, Orange, Union, Washington and Wayne. The total populotion of the state was then 348,031.
LANDSLIDE.

LOUIS, May 6.—Wednesday night a freight train on the St. Ziouis & Iron Mountain railroad bound south was thrown from the track by a land slide near Cliff Cave station. The slide which oame down with terrific force buried six cars and the engine out of sight. The engineer and firemen escaped. In one of the box cars were two men, John O'Malley, of St. Louis, and an unknown. They were buried beneath the debris, and when exhumed, were dead. Damage to freight $5,000. All trains were delayed 24 hours.

DOM PEDRO II,
Emperor of Brazil, Now Seriously ill. News of the serious illness of Dora Pedro II, Fmporer of Brazil, is reoeived with sincere regret in this country. His Majesty has travelled extensively in the United States, and has impressed favorably all with whom he has made aaquaintance. by his unaffected, manly bearing, his affability, his eager and well-informed intelligence, and his earnest desire to benefit, by the adoption of tbe best means of industrial and social improvement, the great country over which he reigns. He is a man of good natural parts, improved by keen and comprehensive observation, aud by study, and excels in his acquaintance with the results of both literary and scientific pursuits. Iu every way a progressive and exemplary ruler, his death would be a severe blow to Brazil, a country which, backward ab it is, when compared with the leading States in Europe and this country, i9 incalculably indebted to Dom Pedro for the rank it holds among the nations. His people have indeed followed bim in the way of improvement, but at too great a distance.

GONE TO CANADA.
The Cashier of an Illinois Bank Missing Likewise Some Funds.
JOLIET, 111., May 6.—Seventy-five to one hundred thousand dollars of the funds of the Will County National Bank are missing. The officials of tbe concern admit that there is a big. shortage, but say that was caused by Cashier Knowlton's bad financial management and his peculiar methods of handling the funds of the old Will County Savings Bank. The latter was a private concern, but Knowlton was manager of it as well as cashier of the National, and both hands were until recently in the same building. The cashier has resigned afid is now in Canada with his wife, but Captain G. P. Phelps, a brother of the American Minister to England, who is his counsel, denies that he is a defaulter and has made arrangements to make good the shortage. An investigation is now in progress.
A KANSAS LETTER.
Letter From a Vigo County Woman Now Located There.
BURLINGAME, Ks., May 3—[Editor GAZETTE]—After a somewhat lengthy silence "Squatter's Daughter" again appears on the scene, hoping a letter from Kansas, "the the garden of west" may not be entirely out of place. As spring opens we have the usual amount of wind, so characteristic of Kansas, though not so damaging as is commonly supposed. The winter has been rather mild and stock that have had a moderate supply of food look weil, though in some cases a great many have died for want of it Last year's dry weather cut the corn crop Shorter than usual ih this county, but the oat crop was good. Our water supply has been limited since autumn, some wells drying up entirely, and in most instances the farm pools also, but this week we were pleased to receive a copious rain which has put the farmers, who were-beginning to feel a little discouraged, in high spirits. Corn planting is now the oHer of the day, some having already finished. Garden vegetables are up and looking well.
Our prospects for fruit are good and we have every indication for a fine peach harvest. We have secured another railroad in Burlingame extending from Kansas City to Emporia called the Kansas, Colorado & Texas. The route is now being surveyed. An election was recently held in Burlingame to erect a county high school building in the city, but the proposition was defeated by a large majority. The Burlingame citizens now talk of erecting it themselves. It is said to be the first election of the kind .ever held in the state. Perhaps some of my readers would like to know our prices, so I will quote a few. Corn is worth 35 cents per bushel oats, 30 cents hay from $6 to $8 per ton butter, 25 cents per pound eggs, 10 cents per dozen and chickens $2 per dozen. Horses are selling high and will be higher when work on the railroad commences, which will be soon. There seems to be plenty to do and every one is busy. I have heard persons say they were coming to Kansas "to grow up with the state." Allow me to suggest that if they don't come pretty soon it will be full grown before they get here, for Kansas is an enterprising place or at least what I've seen and heard of it is.• Some get the idea into their heads that this is an out-of-the-way back-woods place, but they are mistaken, for Kansas is no "slouch" for style, if the women do vote. I didn't mean to mention that,but since it is said I must tell you it is surprising to know how many ladies have taken advantage of the suffrage law recently passed by our Legislature allowing women to vote for all city officials. The law is said to be unconstitutional.
At least I hope it will be repealed. Mr. Tom Somers and family, who accompanied us here, are well and are doing well Mr. Somers is farming. The beautiful rolling prairie around Burlingame is now covered with graBS on which graze great herds of cattle and I can assure my readers I never beheld a more beautiful scene, not even the much-loved Hoosier forest could tempt me to leave my prairie home permaw ntly. There is one thing about this place that is admired by every one and that is tbe good roads. It may rain until it gets quite muddy and then let there be two days of fair weather and they are smooth as glass. A ride can no where be more enjoyed than in Kansas, where one can. drive to the top of some kuoll and view the country for miles and miles around.

For Women.
A Duel Among High Officials to Defend a lady's Honor.
ST. Lotris, May 5.—A special from the City of Mexico says: "Senor Vercero Armesto is the name of the Spanish minister who cuts such a prominent figure in the prospective duel. He has been minister to Mexico about one year. He escorted Miss Bazaine to the ball Saturday night and feels that he must fight to protect her good name. Senor Noriega, the offender, has determined to lay the trouble before the Spanish government and is collecting material to take to Madrid with the view to have the minister recalled. The trouble at the ball is only one of a series of grievances, Noriega's friends claim. They cite particularly the minister's course in introducing the bull fighter Mazzantini in Mexican social circles and making of him asocial lion as an imposition on Mexican hospitality. An attempt is being made to have the minister expelled from the club. In the meantime the Englishman, Barron, is impatiently awaiting for Noriega's challenge, as he slapped the Spaniard in the Casino ball room when the latter accused him of undue liberties with Miss Bazaine. Noriega was on the reception committee and his caution to Barron about his style of dancing is defended on the score of his official position. A great deal of sympathy is expressed for Miss Bazaine on account of the notoriety she received from the affair."
Parnell Better.
DUBLIN, May 5.—Mr. Parnell's health is better. His physioian says he hopes that Mr. Parnell will be able to be in his place in the House of Commons tomorrow evening.
An application for the release ot Father Keller, the priest of Youghal, who wad imprisoned in Kilmainham for refusing to testify iegarding his connection with the "plan of campaign," has been dismissed.
Land Claims.
WASHINGTON, May 5—Commissioner Sparks, ot the General Land Office, has recommended for rejection several large private land claims in New Mexico aggregating in area nearly 175,000 acres.
Agony is Courted
By persons who, attacked by a mild form of rheumatism, neglect to seek prompt relief. Subsequent torture is prevented by an immediate resort to Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. Slight exposure ,an occasional draught, will beget this painful malady, where there is a predisposition to it in the blood. It is not difficult to arrest the trouble at the outset, but well nigh impossible to eradicate it when matured. No evidence in relation to this superb blood depurent is more positive than that which establishes its efficacy as a preventive and remedy for rheumatism. Not only is it thorough, but safe, which the vegetable and mineral poisons, often taken as curatives of the disease, are not. Besides expelling the rheumatic virus from the system, it overcomes fever and ague, billiousness, constipation and dyspepsia.
