Tiik following is the pledge Senator Tolk made tho editor of this paper, about ! o'clock in the forenoon. ov. , IX which was election day : "Abby, I could no more vote against "siibin.'.ion tlian I could cut my right 'hand off. How could I, after the way I was raised, vote against audmission it" We liave htood ly mnator Polk, wo have fouirht for him, we have defeadpd him on every fide till today. We have .stood up ami called men Jiars for his sake. He has never had a betic-f friend th in us till today. Wc arc his enemy today; it hurts m to siy so: it nearly kills us to be so. We cauaot help N fr he voted against Submission yeatc-iday, and "Alcohol" is our bitter enemy. A yorxrj lady of Stella, not having a favorable opinion of church member?, hands us the following item for publica tion. While we do not agree with her. we insert it, in order to give our readers food for thought: If Jesus Christ ran a carpenter shop in this town, there are fully one half of the church members who drive up to our churches in their fine carriages who would not speak to him unless he lived among the quantity or belonged to some big club, Tribune. SUBMISSION. The vote upon submission in the i-tate 6enate, yesterday, will be a surprise in many respects to the people of the state. First we had been lead to believe from the oft repeated rumors and newspaper reports that submission would probably fail in that body, yet thanks to senators who represent the party, some of whom had made no pledges nor committed thimselves upon the all absorbing ques tion it carried just as the obligation of party expressed in convention required. The republicans of Cass county however cannot boast of their delegation in ths senate, and it is with sorrow ami disap Ioiutiueut we notice the action of Sena tor Polk upon this question. His action with the whisky ring will be a great dis appointment to the republican party of Cass county and especially to the larger number of the senator's friend, who when constantly assured by him during his canvass both for the nomination and election, that he was in favor of submission. We arc reliably informed that the senator's writ ten pledge to vote for submission is in existence and that it will be published, :xt least, we guarantee it will be published if we can get our hands on it. No man has the right to deliberately deceive his friends and constituents in this manner. If he is opposed to giving the people an opportunity to vote on this or any other question, as an honest man he should say so when asking for their support. In th case of the seuator his pledges to vote for submission were freely made, bifth before the election and since the organi zation of the legislature, and it is a ser ious thing to thus recklessly break faith with friends and party, at the back of the saloon keepers and whisky riug. The Her t.d proposes to follow this matter up and give the public the full facta touching Mr. Polk's course with our peo ple oa this question. SOUTHERN COTTON CLAIMS. The case of the State National Bank.of New Orleans, formerly tlte Louisiana State Bank, may possibly involxe a just and fair claim against the government but there is certainly good reason for Joo.bt upon that point or the bill would not b opposed by Senator Edmunds and other distinguished lawyers. It appears to be indisputable the Louisiana State Bank was the fiscal ager.fc of the confederacy, and while this doed not absolutely condem its successor, such a fact is suspicious, in a general way, par ticularly when the claim has bet n investi gated and rejected by the treasury department It is a claim connected w ith the ueizare nd sale of cotton for the benefit of the government; and all claims of that sort have an unpleasant odor. To be sure, it is alleged that the cotton in question was taken and sold after the close of the rebellion; but it is by no means certain that the conditions were essentially different from those of cases directly related to the operations of the confederacy. The idea of setting aside the statute of limitations in order to give the claimant a chance to recover where payment was long ago denied by the proper authority is therefore doubtful, to say the least; and a doubtful legislation upon such a subject. It'has been supposed that when the statute of limitations was passed as to claims of this character the design was to put an end forever to that method of im posing upon the government. Abundant time was given for the consideration of all cases in that connection, and it was certainly understood that rejected claims should not be taken up again under any circumstances. If one such claim may properly have a rehearing, then there is no reason why any such claim should be debarred. The statute of limitations should be strictly observed, or it should Itc entirely set aside. It will not do to say that a particular claimant is entitled to favor when in fact, as the law now stands, all preference is forbidden. There are thousands of persons in the South who th'iiiL they have been unjustly dealt with in the matter of coiio;; claims; and if a banking institution which was opec iho tisc.il agent of the confederacy is to have an exception made ia its behalf, these other thousands have an equal right tp such treatment. The only true and safe rule is to observe the limitation whic? was imposed on purpose to close the Southern claim business for all time. It it not at all iil-rj?! y that any serious wrong will be done by letting me iff stand, without favor on any account or in any direction, Jho government has already paid too many southciii pjai's of one kind and another. It is the duty o con gre to see that no more are allowed; and tucrto ae fecial reasons why no par tiality should be shown in i'uui rpertto a concern with such a record as that of thfl State National Bank of New Orleans. Globe Democrat, . '..rgggg AMERICAN CORN AND PORK IN' NORWA Y. As the greater part of the corn and pasture land is situated on the hill and mountain sides, its cultivation is neces saril arduous and expensive; and for every five years the farmers generally count upca one bad year, sometimes two. Either too much rain spoils Jhe crops or early frost nights destroy the corn and potatoes. But the people do not lose heart; they try again. When they have forests or fishery, they make good their losses from these sources, or they cairy on more extensive sheep and cattle farm ing by means of their great mountain pastures than the farm could otherwise support. The Norwegian peasants live frugally, but, notwithstanding this, their farms are generally luortgaged. They cannot compete with the great porn-pro-tlucing countries, e.-necially since America lias begun to supply the market of the world witli its enormous productions of corn anil pork. Many are trying to con fine themselves 10 sheep and cattle farm ing njy; but the change involves much expense, and the character of the people do; s not dispose to e&sily relinquish the labor of tilling the soil; it is the noblest. rBjornstjerne Bjornson, in Harpe, Magazine for February.

They read about them in some catalogue or newspaper, but don't more than half remember tho name, and tho result is, to say the least, peculiar. One woman came in tho other day and asked for 'The Rhine stone, and went out mad because one of tho clerks told her wo didn't sell jewelry. Another wanted 'The Car dinal's IeUer,' by Ilawthor ic. It took our whole force about fifteen minutes to get at what she really wanted, 'The Scarlet Letter.' She said she knew there was something red about it some where and thought it must be car dinal." Portland Advertiser. Mo:!cn Iiliiis: Crusoe. Professor Lee, of Bowdoin college, who accompanied the Albatross expe dition as a naturally, tells of a curious experience in the South Pacific. Years ago the Fcuador government planted a convict colony on Charles Island, one of tho Galapagos group. The convicts reyoued, killed the governor and escaped, Jeaying behind pigs, cattle, donkeys and horses. Since that time no one was thought to live there, and at Chatham Island, another of tho group, the Albatross party were told that Charles Island was entirely deserted. They' were, therefore, rather sur prised when they visited Charles Island to come upon a man nearly naked, carrying a pig .on Lis back. lie quite as surprised as they, and was at first in great fear; but finally they got him to talk. Ilis hair and beard h.td yrown very long, and he had lost all notion of nw. He said that some years before ho had come to Charles Island with a party in search of a certain valuable li? oss ; that he had deserted his eom naiiivtiii, ',v;o bfd irone off without hii:i, tind that since t'luu timo ho had U:::i stlono on the island. lie had lived on fruits i-ud herbs; had captured wild cattle by setting ti-aps for them, killed them with a spear made by tying his pocket knife to a stick, and from their hides- made a hut. lie wits glad to see men again, and asked to betaken back to Chatham Island, which was granted, of course.

She deems herself very properly at least the equal of the mu' cuhno prute, who is taught by her t know that he is not by any ineaus the indispensable crcaturu cojnrnonjy sup poseci. The female of t!:o humr.i: species hereabout, outnumbering r greatly as she does the local male sup ply, must needs learn to take care of licr.se! f. And so she does. It is thus one finds thousands of unprotected but self reliant maidens of various ages approaching matrimonial hope lessness,' pursuing a sort of bachelor csqi;e existence in the studio buildings, with art or literature for an occupa tion. Some of them paint things more or less bad, which their kind hearted friends make a habit of buy iug. Others do hackwork for the newspapers. As a rule they are ladies and have somo little income of their own which enables theni to make both ends meet. Their manner of liv ing is simple and inexpensive.

I heard an amusing story about a prominent insurance agent who has a monopoly of the Gluncse insurance business in this city. He went to a laundry nd got the Mongol in charge to translate a small circular into Chi nese. Tho names of several wealthy Chinesc merchants were given as ref erences. When the circular had been photo-engrai'cd and reduced to a size convenient for printing on an ordi nary business card ' the insurance agtiit fah'JWed ono of his Chinese friends a copy. "Jlelican plintc-r no goode. He spellce my name wlong." said the Mongolian merchant.
