Now, let the factories in this city and vicinity pool their issues and institute a school of technology of their own. It will not cost much and great will be the profit. Brother Jonas of the Aberdeen Exam iner makes daylight shine through the fig ures of the Times-Democrat on Miss’usippi BFseesments. Now for Gov. Lowbey’s wild statistics. k -» Mbs Stonewall Jackson and her daugh ter are the guests of Gen. Benjamin F. Butlbb, at Boston. We hope no ultra Southerly people will go into spasms at this announcement. The Rev. Dr. Howard Cbosby wrote to the Anti-Monopoly meeting at Cooper In stitute last Thursday : “OUB PBBSENT SYB r tkm punishes those who steal five dol lars AND KN COURAGES AND APPLAUDS THOSE WHO STEAL FIVE MILLIONS.” Hatch is enthusiastic for (lart.tht.r for Speaker ; and yet Mr. Car lisle is entirely hostile to Mr. Hatch's pet project-the Mississippi River im- Trovement. Mr. Hatch’s enthusiasm is of the double-barreled order. We do not find our matches any cheaper since the removal of the internal revenue tax. Probably this is on the same line as indicated by the Inter-Ocean which says that ever since the tax on tobacco was re duced free-traders have been able to buy good 5 cent cigars for 10 cents right along. The New York Globe says that when Fbed Douglass was Marshal of the District of Columbia he gave nearly a third of the places at his disposal to colored men, but his successor, McMichael, "this Pennsyl vania Republican, this obsequious tool of the eccentric, strutting Attorney-General, ‘ has run every colored man out of the Marshal’s office-not one remains.” In answer to our esteemed Greenville Netos we may state that while the road from Greenwood to Spartanburg will be pushed to completion, grave doubts are expressed as fa the Savannah Valley project. The Central Road is compelled to move on Spartanburg. While the Western and At lantic Road is not unfriendly, the Central will not push the Anderson scheme. The New York Times, commenting on the negro vote, says the civil service in the South is being used, as it has been used before, as a machine to grind out delega tions to the National Convention. It adds: “Such a policy is fatal to Republican suc cess, not only in the South, but in the Na tion. Its prime requirement is that the Republican vote in the South shall be kept down in order to be manageable. Its ef fect upon the party in the North is to ex cite disapproval and disgust. No candi date who shall succeed in obtaining a nomination by such means, or shall owe to them a great part of his strength in the Convention, can be elected President of the United States—a fact which is earnest ly commended to the attention of whom it may concern.” Herb are some figures that will let you know what race has the bulge in ruling this country: The Germans are about 60 k per cent of the population of Dakota. The ■f same is true of Minnesota and Wisconsin— r in Nebraska and Michigan one in four of the population is foreign born and in Illinois and lowa the proportion is one in five. In all these, our great agricultural "States, detailed figures show that the per centage of foreign born population is hea vily German. And this is particularly true of the Northwestern States. Highly commending the Teuton settlers, the Boston Commercial Bulletin says: “The Ger man element dominates in each campaign. There were more German born foreigners in the country in 1880 than of any nationality, the number of Germans out of a total of over six millions being 1,966,742. The Irish born, who were next in number were 1,855,827 which was hardly an ap preciable gain over the figures for 1880 which showed a gain of 300,000. Figures of to-day show that this movement contin ues.” ? ** “ The New York Nun, in answer to a Cou rier-Journal circular anent the Speakership and Presidency, answers that it favors Randall for Speaker, because bis election will mean "economy and reform.” As available candidates for the Presidential nomination by the next national conven tion of the Democracy, Mr. Dana names the following: Thomas F. Bayard, Delaware. Benjamin F. Butler, Massachusetts. Roswell P. Flower. New York. Abram 8. Hewitt, New York. Allen G. Thurman, Ohio. Thomas A. Hendricks, Indiana. William 8. Holman, Indiana. Joseph E. McDonald, Indiana. John M. Palmeb, Illinois. Samuel J. Randall, Pennsylvania. So far as the tariff is concerned, Mr. Dana quotes Hancock and the Ohio plat form to show that the Democratic party is not excited on the subject of free trade, and that they do not wish to disturb the the system "which has built up our in dustri|s.” C’UIIONICLE AND CONSTITUTION A LIST. 'UjUSTA WEDNESDAY. SEPTEMBER, 26. 1883. EDITORIAL. VOTES. Texas is said to be the “coming great State of the Union.’’ According to Puck, Jay Gould has a corner on hell. This is a horrible jest. Rumor hath it that Ro ooe Conkling may take Lapham's place in the Senate. If Geobge D. Robinson cannot defeat Ben Butler nobody in Massachusetts can. John Sullivan is making a fortune at bis bar. He takes in from $2,400 to $496 daily. The people of Abbeville cannot com plain of a lack of Police Gazette literature this week. The South Carolina Railway Commis sion will do that State no good, but much harm, we fear. Unloading the colored voter is becom ing a distinct policy of one wing of the Republican party. Mb«. Kats Chase Spbagub is worth about $250,000. She is not now an ex travagant woman. Sab*h Bernhardt has had another theatrical ovation in Paris, while her latest husband wanders off in obscurity. A “Georgia cotton prophet” named Cook, having from Albany, predicts that a 5,000,000 bale crop will not be made this year. A Walker county woman, who has mis behaved herself, claims that she was “con jured with the left hind foot of a graveyard rabbit.” Hon. Robert M. McLane, the Demo cratic nominee for Governor of Maryland, is a man of great ability and experience in public affairs. Rose farming is said to be a most lucra tive Georgia industry. Horticulture, with brains to back it, is one of the most hon orable and profitable of callings. After the equinoctial storm, the New York Herald predicts comparatively mild weather, especially in the latter part of autumn and through the winter. The New York Herald thinks it would strengthen the Democratic ticket if Gen. Gobdon, Gen. Hampton, Mr. Cablisle or Mr. Randolph Tucker could be nominated as Vice-President If George D. Robinson, of Massachu setts should be remdved from the House of Representatives, the Republicans would lose the only man fit for leadership. His absence will be a Democratic gain. Major Barnes is loud in admiration of Canadian gardens. England is said to be ahead of all nations in landscape garden ing, and a traveller there declares that, in the summer time, it is the earthly Paradise. Jacub Thomison describes Joseph Holt as a man without heart or soul, without a friend in the world. He is said to have made a good Postmaster-General. He is supposed to be a live dead man some where. Hon. Geobge T. Barnes’ correspondence from Nnva Scotia is highly entertaining and instructive. Canada and its outlying provinces are almost unknown lands to many persons. Mejor Barnes has lifted the curtain for us. 4 The New York limes neve> was more prosperous than now, and yet its reduc tion in price has caused a sensation. The advertising is what pays principally at New York, one and two dollars a line being easily obtained, in 3«sh. The Baltimore Sun says : ‘’There has been more capital sunk in this country in the daily newspaper than in any other business, and yet there are many more ready to engage therein, and who think themselves competent to ‘run a newspaper,’ as the saying is ” Gen. Mahone is “working the Depart ments,” in spite of Civil Service Reform. A warning circular has been sent to all Virginia office-holders who have declined to make contributions to the campaign. The conservative Republican papers howl at Mahone, but the Administration is with him. The Democratic nominee for Governor of Maryland has been highly educated at home and abroad. Be is a West Point graduate, a distinguished engineer, a noted lawyer, a trained diplomatist and an elegant orator. His family is historic and wealthy. Though 68 years of age he would readily pass for a man of 50. Now and then, a Virginian of the old school emulates the ancient Romans. Judge Mayo, according to the Richmond Slate, had to choose between his con science and Mahone, between death and dishonor, and preferred the foimer. It seems to us there was another alternative —the Jndge might have resigned his Office and not his life. The Inter-Ocean says : "There are in all hardly 5,000,000 persons in the United States that are not pursuing protected in dustries. Every grower of grain, provis ions, oak bark, timber, cattle, sheep, every maker of wine, beer, or liquors, every per son sailing in our coasting trade, every manufacturer of almost every article of food or clothing is pursuing a ‘protected industry.’ There are at least 45,000,000 of this class of 'monopolists’ in the coun try, and everybody who remains on the outside is as free to get on the inside as he is to ‘go in doors when it rains.’ ” Ills Twenty-1 bird Child. (Poughkeepsie Enterprise.) Patrick Brennan, of Newburg, became a fathei for the twenty-third time on Sun day, when a fourteen-pound boy was born unto him. Mr. Brennan, who is an Irish man by birth, is 65 or 66 years old. He has been twice married, nine of his child ren being by his first wife and the other fourteen by the present Mrs. Brennan. He had been a supervisor for several terms, and has held other public offices, now be ing a special policeman at Washington’s Headquarters. At one time he was pos sessed of considerable property, but it has made him poor to rear hi? numerous fami ly, most of whom are living. To Be Vetoed. Boston, September 19.—A special dis patch from Concord, N. H., says: The Governor has decided not to sign the Southern Pacific Railroad and Steamship Company bill, which passed both branches of the Legislature. Dangerous "Wrecks. New York, September 19.—The steamer City of Pueblo, which arrived here, to day, from Havana, passed three vessels, bottom up, which are dangerous to naviga tion to south bound vessels. LOUISVILLE EXPOSITION. THE EXPOSITION VNDKK ELECTRIC LIGHTS. The Great Floral Display And the Novel Devices—-The Seventh Regi ment Band And the Chorus of Five Hundred » rained Sing err—Two More Fine P.c tures—Advertisers Slow. [Regular Correspondence of the Chronicle.] Louisville. September 19.—Seeing how great has been the pressure upon your space, I have thought best to condense several days into one letter, and write less often. The Legislature and local matters always deserve precedence over correspon dence from foreign lands, as Kentuckey was to us in the days of the Confederacy, and if you will grant space for a good letter occasionally, it will be better worth read ins; than daily scraps. The great show is best seen at night when the four thousand six bund ed electric lights create a new and very wonderful sort of day light. I have spoken of them before, but the article was crowded out by capital news, or the paper never came. Thereat© three chief exhibitions of this pure white light, and I do not propose to glorify any one, unless they pay us for it. But all are good, save the old blue jumpingflame, and that is bad for eyesight. The Atlanta fac tories use it, and the operatives all com plain. But the exhibits all appear better at night, and the Art Gallery, having bad skyliehts, can only be seen perfectly under the Edison light. But one of the most beautiful things in the main building is a waterfall, where hundreds of gallons per minute are pumped ten feet high and let fall in a ceaseless cascade, by the trans mitted power of electricity. The foot of the waterfall is surrounded by dwarf palms and blooming plants, the imita tion rocks are moss covered, and behind the waterfall is a star of electric burners, while above the same kind nf burners shine softly on the falling wafer and the flowers through richly tinted glass It is as pretty an effect as the illuminated foun tain at Niblo’s New York. The visitors also look better under this soft light, and the many beautiful girls who belong here or visit us, become radiant when seen by it. The most of gentlemen and manv ladies, turn to look twice at a Invely blonde who graces the Courier Journal ex hibit office, although I am not sure if it is the paper, or the Crab Orchard salts ex hibit that she guards. I could take those salts forever if they would make me as pretty in kingdom-come as she is to-night, sitting there with the electric light mak ing a coronal of her pale golden hair. She suggests the younger Lord Litton’s words of his friend— "Oh, Naira, you wonderful infant, whose dutv Is but to be pretty and proud es your beauty;” Only she does not seem at all conscious of the admiration she wins. Outside of the divinely beautiful children who live and dance through the park, and next to the fine pictures and statues that simulate life; the best things of the w»ek have been the floral display of Tuesday night, the chorus of five hundred, and the cornet solo per formances of Signor Libernti io the Seventh Regiment band conceits. Signor 0. A. Cappa is an excellent conductor, and both in open air concerts and in the or chestra in the shadow of the grand organ, the music is delicious. The flower show was not largo, and there were very few choice flowers In fact, the daily show of gladiolus and dahlias is, in single specimens, the best. But the subject pieces are very fine. 1 may mention a gasolier with globes of pure whi’e blossoms, at one end of the long table. Near it tbe harp of Erin in na tive green, with strings of golden bloom, pleased me very much. A. floral clock, with the figures and bands made of sweet violets, on a face of white blossoms, and the body of the clock, or case, of crimson flowers, attracted much attention. A pillar with two slight leaving arches was pretty, as was 0 floral mirror frame. The common device of the ‘goo I luck” horse shoe attracted attention from its large size and the richness of its flowers The ox yoke and bows, now so common at wedding”, was noticible from its rare and perfect delicacy of finish, and the absence of the appearance of weight, that suggests a hard lite for the bride blushing beneath it. The Northern visitors were much pleased with a great spread eagle of tube roses on a ground of rich crimson flowers, while the old thirteen stars, of which Georgia owns one, were above it on the shield. A pair of temple gates in bloom, and a fine “Star of Bethlehem,” filled spaces that were else too bore. The most curious thing was the mnllato nurse and her baby carriage. A mask of brown was the only part of the group not entirely of flowers. A dress and train consisted en tirely of pink blossoms. The sacqnewas of crimson flowers, relieved bv a white pinafore apron of pure white, with belt and shoulder straps. Her hat was in the fashion, with plume of the graceful pampas grass. In one hand, a fresh green palm less kept the flies from her infant charge, or, as is more usual, herself, and the other rested lb fatly on the handle of the baby carriage. This, too, in wheels, gear, body. seat- and cano py, was all of green vines or beautiful bios soma, and beneath the rich canopy of crimson and purple blossoms, which was lined with white, lay the occupant, a fceau ful wax doll. The crowd about this was so great all the evening as to make the aisles impassable. A chariot of greenery and blooms, drawn by a pair of large white horses, the hair all of blossoms and manes and tails of pampas grasses, was to me the most beautiful, al though not so singular. The grand con cert, in which the Seventh Regiment band under Sig. Capps, the grand chorus of 500 voices, and the great organ, participa ted, had only one drawback. M D. Mac. pherson made no error with his select© 1 chorus. George Zoeller missed no effect of which the superb organ was capable; but the lady with the fidgets and ths spoiled child was there, and talked to or about her darling in en eating-house voice all th© time that the darling was not pro fefsing to read the programme aloud. The two society young men were also there. One felt in vain for the down on his upper lip, and listened while the other, who was most “pawshoonately fond of dawncing,” told of his ball-room victories. He was a poor, little, gone-to-seed-too-early young man, with a real diamond ring and a cheap gold watch, and according to his story he had been the Adonis and heart-breaker in every fine salon from Pittsburg to New Or leans. It was real sad to hear how La Belle Fathcgiana in Cincinnati was in love with him; how the Vere De Veres of Vir ginia tried to entrap him into an alliance with their Clara ; how the queenly Pighamitina of the West was in quick consumption for him ; how La Divina Gloriana of the opera took blue-msss for his sake; and bow really there was not a young lady in St. Louis or New Orleans who enjoyed good health while he staid away, and since he danced there first. He said dawnce. I felt my heart ache for the poor things who had no hope save in Salt Lake City, and his early Mormon conversion, and moved my seat. But I got just in front of the young man who beats time with his feet and hums the air out of tune; and there fore I failed to properly heir the concert. The orchestra led off in Wagner’s Tann hauser, and then the double chorus, band and organ rendered the “Hailstone” pas sage of Handel’s Israel in Egypt. God frey’s Reminiscences of Mozart was played, and then the full power was turned on for Bishop’s “Hail to the Chief,” as sung for President Arthur. The precision and enunciation of this was wonderful. Sig nor Liberati then gave us “The Lost Chord ” as a cornet solo, and the fact that his instrument cost six thousand dol lars, and is of solid gold, jew elled. did not impress me so much as its soft tone and his great mastery of this most difficult of all instruments I have heard .Arbuckle and Levy, but this handsome young Italian, and his golden toned instrument, are very satisfactory. Sometimes the notes were soft and mellow as the never to be forgot ten tender notes of Neilsson, and then there would ring out a clarion tone, like tbe trumpet music of the Horse Guards, who attend the Queen. I cannot describe it, for it was a boquet of music a voeal sunbeam, a nightengale in gold and dia monds, but singing still, a skylark, as I have beard them under the English shy, and it all ended in a prolonged trill that Patti could not equal with her divine voice. “The Reminiscences of Scotland,” a med ley by the band, was very sweet, and Mrs. S. J. Friedenheimer—be sure you get it right, Friedenheimer - appeared in the role of Rossini, “Inflamatua.” with the full chorus, band and organ in interludes and accompaniment. Ah, it was fine, especially when the sooiled child behind her took the sulks, and when the weak minded young man indulged in a few magnificent passages of silence, and when the idiot who beat the devil’s tattoo on my chair hurt his pet corn and limped out to cry softly in the solitude of the fountain court. I love good music so well that I edited the Southern Musical Journal for nearly two years, to show how little I know of it, and lam in deep sympathy with the dog that howls in the next back yard over the slap-bang-set ’em-up-again music of tbe Buckingham theatre in he middle of the square. I for give them once a day-when they play “Dixie." But you ought to have been at the Exposition when the volunteers from the Frankfort inauguration filled the room to the number of some thousands, and Sig..Cappa gave the signal for Dixie Land, the old veil broke out as I have not heard it since Perryville fight. 1 sit now and dream, as a tender strain from Meyerbeer floats over the crowd that is hushed at last, and I hear tbe splash of the two fountains in the ad jacent courts, and feel as it in the enchant ed Alhambra away off in Spain, and wait for a Moorish princess to wake me with a kiss. lam awakened by- “Nice fresh candy, sir; fresh ever? day.” “Buy some Florida curiosities, sit?” “See here, sir, wonder ful invention; takes grease out of your pantaloons in a minute, sir, or no charge,” and I go out into the park, and am waked up by the man who sings, without breathing or punctuation or cessation, “Don’t forget that this is the only and first electric rail way in America goes all around the park and stops at the Art Gallery starts now in one minute get your tickets now 10 cents first and only electric railway in Ameri—” and I have escaped his din, while out on the soft air of night, among the grand oaks, beeches and elms there floats the solemn “March to Calvary,” from the “Redemp tion” of Gounod. There are florae pictures yet to paint for the thousands of readers of the old Chron icle, the oldest in the State save one, and among th<- oldest, (and best) in Amer ica. In fact I mean to try and paint two or three pictures in my next letter. The printers begin to know the writing that was once so familiar to you all, and do not let me in for so many blunders. I hone to get among the advertising exhibitors soon, and I mu-t get ready for the two pulpits I fill on the Sabbath. What will my congrega tion say if I picture the wonderful and lovely dancing girl of the West Art Gal lery as I see her now in my mind ? It is halt nude, and yet so sad, so sweet, with the eyes full of unshed tears over her shame, and with the limbs so weary with the paid-for dance just close \ that to ma it is a sermon, like the story of Jesus and the Magdalene.
