He was imported to New Orleans
from another State to take charge
of a high school for boys in that
city, and he had hardly . got well
into harness before he wrote a let
ter to his_friend,„the editor of the
Lathrop (Mo.) Monitor/ from
which the following is an. extract;-
“A school teacher in the north is
one who fears God and loves the
little children. In the south a
school teacher is a person who has
a .well developed muscle and whose
watchword is dispatch. All. honor
to whom" honor is due,- but the pu
pils here obey only when compell
ed by force or fear. You cannot
appeal to their sense of right and
honor, for they are destitute of
such dualities. Such is now and
1 Augusts Evening-Sews.
The jdte bagging combination,
it is reported, has reached the con
clusion that it will be more profit
able to dissolve their league aud
seek incorporations. .According to
the Boston Commercial Bulletin
eight companies, with a total an
nual capacity ;of . 31,300,000 yard^
.will be incorporated under the
laws of West Virginia as the Amer
ican Manufacturing Company, with
a capital stock of $1,000,00(1 Pour-
teen mills will remain independ
ent*, with a capacity of 30,600,000
yards.. , - ■ • : §
Commenting on those statements
the Springfield Republican says;—
“So goes another trade conspiracy*
It held up prices with the grand
result of stimulating a most profit
able .production from the: inde
pendent mills and driving the cot
ton planters to the use of a large
amount of bagging of other mate
rial—of diminishing demand, and
increasing production where there
has already been over-production:
Prices must come down now, and
the last state of the-trade is infi
nitely worse than the first,” .*.
All of this, says the News and
Courier, will be interesting to. the
Farmers’- Alliance and tq other
farmers throughout the South who
are already preparing to continue
the fight in favor of cotton cover
ing next year. It is plain that by
-oueerted action the cotton pro
ducers caneasily make themselves
master of ,thS situation. It ,$rill
not do, hoVever, to wait until midr
summer before taking action, as
they waited this year. The whole

should be . done. The expedient
which the President says is “un
authorised and dangeuaus” has
been persisted in by a Secretary
of the Treasury over whom it is
popularly supposed the. President
is capable of exercising some in
fluence. The President implies
that the. deposits, cannot be with
drawn without “id j ary to the com
mercial interests,” unless it is done
a “cautious and gradual” way. He
has been so cautious and gradual
that he has reduced * the deposits
less than 160,000 since the begin
ning of the fiscal year. But the
Administration which General
Harrison denounced last, year for
its financial policy reduced the de
posits $7,756,554 .in the corre
sponding .five months’ including
the last four months of the Presi
dential campaign This was done
without injury ..to the commercial
interests and without that procla
mation Secretary Windom has just
issued, which gives a six weeks’
notice of the proposed withdraw
als, which is quite .as much inter
est to the speculators as it is to
fha. regular business interests of
the country.
During these five months at the
beginning of the fishal year the
interest bearing debt has been re-
duced $51,798,240, which is very
creditable; and- the average of
about ten 'millions a moiith is as
good as the late Administration
showed, but the late Administra
tion kept that average up for
twelve months an d the present Ad
ministration has not kept it up'for
nine. The reduction of the inter
est bearings debt since this Admin
istration came iii is . $80,050,470.
Its reduction of the net debt, how
ever, is only S60,895.29n. If this
Administration has 'Ireduced the
deposits in the banks $7,756,564
instead of a beggarly little $59,709
its reduction of the debt would
have compared very-favorably with
that of its', predecessor. the.
corresponding nine months of lasf
year the bonded debt was reduced
$94*695,850, or fourteen millions
more than this year. -

the town in which the Monitor is
published. He at once wrote to
the New Orleans Spates, and made
a very decided effort to crawfish
out of his former statements. He
said he was not writing for the
New Orleans public, that he had
no intention of reflecting upon The
pupils and teachers of southern
schools,- end what he meant ..was
that “more force, was used, in- the
south than in schools iu thefioitli.”
This was an explanation that did
not explain. Indeed, Prof. Mar-
tin’-s letter to the Latjn’op Monitor
is so direct a reflection upon south
ern teachers; pupils and parents,
that it would be a mistake for him
to say anythiug about it* unless he
wanted to retract his formes state
ments, and make a frank admis
sion that he was either impelled
: by prejudice to say what he did,
'or that .he knew nothing of what
; he wrote about. It appears that
he received a paft ,of his education
in the south, and that he has taught
: school in the south a number of
years. He, was not ignorant, there
fore, upon the subject* and it is to
be assumed that he was controlled
by a very improjjei 1 motive. He
certainly acted in' a very fdfclish
manner, but he will probably be
itke only sufferer. His statements
have no doubt caused him to lose
whatever influence /for good ; he
may have, .had among his pupils,
and such .being the-case, hrs work
in New Orleans, where he has a
,good school, will soon come, doubt
less to an end.

. In Nashville, Tenn., they de
vised a shrewd arrangement for
enabling voters who could not
iread,.to. place their cross in the
right plape on .the .ballot of the
Australian system. They had tin
plates made just, the size, of the
ballots, and With, slots cut in them
at such, intervalsv that the open
spaces would come oyer those
names which the voter desired to.
cross. A young lawyer' of Nash
ville invented the device the bight

Qen. Alger doesn’t propose to
let the president get ahead of him
iu hatching pension schemes. He
wants census enumerators to col
lect the names of -all old, federal
soldiers who are living, and of-rep
resentatives of those who are dead,
with regiment, rank,- residence,
physical . and financial condition,
etc. In a word, Gen. Alger wants
the government to search the high
ways and the. r byways for people*
upon whom to bestow - pensions.
As such reports Would be from
government agents, the govern
ment would hardly go back. bn
them, and as a consequence many
a person who misrepresented mat
ters to tha enumerators would get
a pension. This is a brilliant
scheme—for getting the good will
of the.grand army. It is on a par
with President Harrison’s.—Sav
