It is said the Mnrdi Gras in New Or
leans will coat $800,000 this winter. Tl:at
amount of money, properly applied, would
bring in 4,000 white emigrant'*, whoso la
bor to the St.iio would bo worth V
000 per annum.

ulets with all the other exploded schemes
of Congress.
It in estimated that r>0,000 square miles
of toriitory in Kansas, Nebraska, and
Colorado have been swept by the recent
terrific fires that have devastated the tree
less portions of those sections, carrying
destruction to hundreds of homes, and in
many cases death.
The New York JI dr aid says the only
way to settle the Cuban difficulty is to
take Cuba, and then with a curious in
consistency in another paragraph it affects
to joke at its discovery that Cuban mat
ters, and Credit Mold’ t have the same
initials. The foit ol the lleniUl utver
was wit, u whale cannot spout like u trout.
A kikle factory at Ithaca, New York,
made 80,000 rifles for the Spanish gov
ernment last fall, and now they have re
ceived an order for an equal uumbor from
other parties Curious that our factories
should ho working for both sides. This
fact shows that the field* of Undo and
commerce aro broader than the bounda
ries <»f nations.
Sr.Non jus Conto, editor of El Cronista,
the organ of the voluutool's in Cuba, is an
American citizon, though ho 1ms espoused
the cause of Spain. Now it is said the
Castclar administration has ordorod his
arrest for hi* opposition to the Fish-Polo
protocol. The question is w ill ho, or can
he ask the protection of the United States
under the circumstances.
A Texas editor, whose midnight oil
must have failed him just as ho was go
ing to press, prints the follow ing energet
ic opinion: “The man who would water
petroleum and sell it, would sneak into
the pnlftco of tlio king of kings and stool
the guilding from Ihe wings of the an
gels." The sufferer could nut liavo been
more vigorous iu his denunciation if ho
hud caught Homebody watering his whis

Tub conunittoe appointed by council to

of obstructions iu the Clmttuhooolioe
have already digested their plans and are
determined to press them to a sncoosnful
Issue. It will require time, patience ami
A gfluerul co-opcnniiun on the part of all
interested. If the liver be not oloor by
this day next year, it will not bo tho fault
of tho gentlemen who are delegated to act

Wo hear on every side the opinion ex
pressed that if tho panic wero to subside
times would brighten up, money would
bo abundant and I ho country prosperous.
IVr wi.ih we could take this view of it.
and being naturally sanguine, wo would if
there were the slightest hope of success
in it. A higher pi ice for cottou would of
courfio increase by so much tho wealth of
the South, but it woidd go only a short
way to ulleviuting tho actual necessities
of tho people. The existing evils were
not brought on by the panic, only hast
ened, or rather, wo only became moro
conscious of our poverty nud compara
tive helplebsuoss, by the money strin
gency. Sixteen cents for cotton might
easo tho present pain, but it
would only bo a postponement of tho
fluid catastrophe, if there bo not a
speedy, dutcimined uud n united effort
on Tie part of the pi niters to completely
revolutionize tiu ir m\ Uuu of agriculture,
and c.lmugo tin suicidal all-cotton policy.
If our furmeiv. had food for themselves
uud hands d fed h v for their stock,
they could 1..ugh at tho wolf of want, and
led less keenly tho present depression in
tho price of their alnplo. Nay, if in the
past five years they had raised their own
food, and exercised a proper economy,
they would not ho forced lo sell
their cotton to pny useless debts,
but could quietly hold it for a rise.
“Sixteen cent tor cotton and wo will
have good time*;, we hear men sny every
day; but there never was a greater mis
take. Tho “good times” aro far in tho |
future, uud not dependent on tlm crop I
that is made, but the crops to bo made. I
There will never ho good times hero while
northern hay is silliug on our streels, j
one sees it now, and northern meat and
broad bought on credit to make cotton for 1
foreign factories. 1 Good times' will not I
ccmo while lm u continue to insult j
Heaven by cultivating one hundred j
acres of land wretchedly when they |
wear goods of Southern manufacture or
imported through Southern ports; t.ieu
we will have “good times,' and they >' ill
como to stay, 1 and tho fall of a few ocnts
in cotton will not threaten our farmers
with famino or the country with poverty.

If anybody has any doubts about the
general literary character of our town,
ho or »ihe should have visited the room of
the Public Library last night, the occasion
being a regular meeting, called by the
President of the organization. Wo went
on an invitation, and expected to see the
room crowded, but there were only two
(hero -the Piysident and another. They
wero Hitting before a new-made fire wait
ing for a quorum. Wo Bat for three-
quarters of an hour with them, but the
quorum failed to put in an appearance, and
wo think the mooting adjourned with no
markod enthusiasm. Wo upent our timo
iu examining tho Library, and it is not
wonderful oither in its matter or arrange
ment. If wc wero to judge of the char
acter of tho books most used, wo should
suy tho lightest novels were the only books
reud, for their covers wore ragged and dirty,
while tho moro sterling books looked as if
they had never been used. A full length
portrait of Gonoral McIntosh adorns the
wall, and the old chief looks out of place,
and his swarthy face in the dim light bears
the expression of one who is sadly musing
over tho degeneracy of tho times. The
Library is not n live institution, its glory
has departed, and the onorgy that gave it
origin was what Mrs. Gamp called a “spaz-
zum.” Its book shelves aro, many of
thorn, bookless, nud others tilled with a
very poorly arranged selection. Its sur
roundings uro utterly unornamontal, unat
tractive and cheerless; its exchequer is
i vhaustod; its members aro resigning, or i
worse, utterly neglecting their duties, so
that wo tool warranted in saying if the
Library stock were thrown on tho market
it would pay to sell it short.
Twelve thousand people iu a rich man
ufacturing town, many of thorn very in
telligent and all of them able to road, at
least tho whites, ought to havo enterprise
and culture enough, oven for tho nnmo of
our city to keep up a library. It cert in
ly cannot be urged that tho neglect of tho
public library is owing to tho many line
private ones wo havo in the city, for after
a careful inquiry wo find thore are but
few such. Again wo ask cannot some
thing bo dono to establish a good library
ami a permanent lyceum in Columbus.

For tho Kcquirer.
Cjuwfoud Gjianoe, Dec. fl, 1873.
Tho members of the Grunge at this
place celebrated tho 4th iusfc. as tho nni-
versury of tho order. Notwithstanding
the morning was ovorcast with clouds and
occasional showers foil beforo 11 o’clock,
tho sky was clear aud seroue, tho weather
pure and bracing, foreshadowing tho
bright future in store for the order. But
for the number of horses and vehicles
seen in the village no one would have
supposed that thore was any occurrence
to disturb tho quiet of the place. No
booming of cannon heard, noisy squads
of men seen engaged in angry political
disputes, no bad whiskey drank—all was
calm.
At 18 o'clock the boskets wore unpacked
and a sumptuous picnic spread,in which all
participated. Tho feast was not tho only
source of pleasure on tho occasion; the
social conversation indulged in continued
till Into, and ended with a pang of sorrow
that such meetings are so short. It
seemed a reunion of kindred spirits, aud
o seemed to fool that isolation that has
for some years past como ovor us. Tho
scene was much enlivened by tho presence
of tho sisters of tho order, who wero at
their post early, arranging tho table nud
rendering such services as woman only
can. So tastily was all proparod that tho
oldest member declared it was woll done,
and was willing to wager that tho Indies
of our Grange could not be excelled by
any other; that tho poet was sensible
when he sung that
