FRIDAY. DECEMBER 4. 1874^
Franc School Issues.—Tne decision
by tha Supreme Court of Indiana ex
cluding colored children from the bene
fit of the oommon school fund of that
State has been seized hold of, " says' a
Washington letter, as a means of making
party capital, and Congressmen who are
in favor of the civil rights bill say they
will nse it as ah argument in favor of that
measure. There is also some talk of an
effort to have the question adjudicated
upon by the Supreme Court of the United
States. A proposed constitutional amend
ment making it the duty of Congress to
provide for a uniform system of educa
tion throughout the Union is now on the
calendar of the'Senate. The proposi
tion had a strong Eupport last session,
and it i§ alleged that its advocates have
increased’, and that, in consequence of
the decision of the Indiana Supreme
Court, there will be an attempt made to
have it acted on this winter. The adop
tion of such an amendment to the Consti
tution would take from the State Legis
latures all control'of the common schools
and vest it in Congress. But even if a
two-thirds vote could be obtained in the
House for such an amendment it would
certainly fail of ratification by the States.
New State Making.—A-Washington
letter says the movement for the admis
sion of New Mexico into the Union will
be renewed with redoubled vigor this
winter. The bill for that purpose p
the House by a large majority, and is now
before the Senate. New Mexico has more
than the requisite number of population,
which has not been the case with any
State admitted in the last two score
years. In times of high party strife.Ter-
ritories have several times been made
States when the circumstances did not
warrant it. Now there seems to be a
growing feeling in the Senate that the
Territories should be put on longer pro
bation. There is also an indisposition to
increase the membership of the Senate,
as if it becoming somewhat noisy aud un
ruly, like the House. In the case of New
Mexico it is also objected by Senators
that.although it may possess the requisite
population, that is very far from being
the only consideration; The population,
which is in the main of Spanish-Mexican
descent, do not speak the English lan
guage, and have no adequate conception
of our institutions.
Justice Swathe.—It is understood that
it is contemplated by Justice Swayne to
retire from the bench of the Supreme
Conrt in a few months. Under the law
of Congress Justice Swayne, if he con
cludes to retire, will have his full salary
during the remainder of his life. This
will _ give another appointment on the
Supreme Court bench to President Grant.
President Grant has already had the
appointment of four Supreme Court Jus
tices, arid another vacancy during his
term of office would make the majority
of the’ court his appointees. Such a
thing has never happened before during
the incumbency of any President.
Cotton Manufacturing in tlio South.
From the report of the New York
Commercial and Financial Chronicle,
made after several months of close in.
vcstigation, we learn that the eight most
important manufacturing States are Mas
sachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut,
Pennsylvania, Maine, New York, Mary,
land and Georgia. The names are given
in their order of cotton consumption.
Massachusetts used last year 438,000 bales,
and Georgia used40,000 bales. The Stats
of New York uses but 13,000 bales more
than Georgia, Ohio but one-tenth as
much as Georgia, while Illinois, Iowa,
Michigan, Wisconsin, Missouri, Kansas,
. California and Oregon do not appear in
the list of cotton-spinning states at all.
In minois, Iowa and Missouri there are
a few small mills which buy tbeir yarn
already spun and make it into cloth. The
Chronicle says that the cotton mills of
Georgia, Alabama and South Carolina are
the most prosperous in the Union.
It appears that the number of spindles
in the United States now is 9,415,383,
against 7,114,000 four year? ago, an in
crease of 33 per cent Tha increase of
oar home population has been in that
time only 11 per cent. The New York
Tribune seizes upon these two facts to
argue that the decline in the price of
American cotton goods is due to the in
creased production at home and the in
creased imports of foreign manufactures.
It says that the remedy must be found
in shutting out foreign goods and in ex
tending our exportations. This narrow
view of the subject is met by the Mobile
Register with an argument, the irresist
ible fores of which must sooner or later
be recognized by the Chinese party in
this country. The Rrgl^Urr asks: “Will
the Tribune never surrender its antiqua
ted notions on the subject of protection ?
If it were to examine more closely into
the facts gathered together by the Chron
icle, it would see that the surest remedy
against the evil of which it complains is
to cheapen the cost of manufacture.
Where can the cost be cheapened?
Evidently in those localities where the
profits of manufactures are greatest—
namely, in Georgia, Alabama and South
Carolina. Here we have continual mild
weather all the year long. Here the la
borers can work out of doors all the year
long. Here the cost of fuel aud food is
at the minimnm. Here, therefore, is the
field for the most remunerative manufac
turing enterprises. Instead of building
up a Chinese wall around the Union, and
making the consumers pay an inordinate
tax to the few cotton manufacturing
States of New England, let ub throw open
our ports to all the world! It would then
not be long before the capital of Europe
would seek the cotton States with their
machinery. Strike the tariff off, and
Alabama, Georgia and South Carolina can
still manufacture cotton goods at a profit!
If New England should not be able to do
let her move West! ”

that he does not expect any interference

An'Irish paper announces that a com
mittee, headed by the Lord. Mayor at
Dnbbn,' Sir John Gray, M. P., and others,
have issued a circular calling upon Irish
men in all countries to join in fitly cele
brating the centenary of O'Connell in
Angnst next, and inviting representatives
from every State and clime to the Irish
metropolis “to celebrate the jubilee of
freedom,” when a monument to O'Con
nell is expected to be inaugurated. The
Lord Mayer has, however, since written
to the papers stating that his name was
used without his authority.
' It seems that “vice versa” Smith, of
Arkansas, who proclaims himself Gover
nor of that unhappy State, is a son of
Dolazon Smith, formerly known as “De
lusion Smith,” of Oregon, who once con
tested 'Williams’ seat as United States
Senator. “Delusion”, was a violent ene
my of Christianity, and, in order to attest
the fact, named his son Volney Vcdtaire
Smith. “No wonder, then, that our
Smith is afflicted with the delusion that
he is Governor of Arkansas. He inherit

father,” says the Little Bock Gazette.
iKTEBESTOra to Szockholbebs is Na

trict Court in New York has decided that
persons represented as stockholders in
national backs are held liable for its lia
bilities, even though they may have trans
ferred their shares. In other word?, it is
made the duty of stockholders to see that
such transfer is made on the books of the
bank. This construction of the law will
probably annoy many persons who have
transferred their stocks without relieving
themselves of future liability.
the law creating it payable in coin to be
so paid. A convention of *11 who can
[ agree to the foregoing financial proposi
tion is to be called at Cleveland, Ohio, on
the 11th of March, 1875, to perfeot a Na

Convention to nominate candidates for
President and Vice'President. A National
Executive Committee was appointed, and
the convention adjourned.
Senator Chandler is reported as saying,
in a recent speech at Coldwater, Mich.,
that “ the actual running expenses of the
Government are now as low as before the
war.” This transparent falsehood may
pass for truth in Michigan, but, if so, it
is no credit to the intelligence of Old
Zaoh’s constituents. In the same speech,
this apostle of “ blood-letting,” without
which he once thought the Union would
be worthless, used the following inhuman
language
If our volunteers should be called upon
to go Sou b, which I hope they never
wifi, and if they should ask my advice
before they start, which they won't, my
advice would be not to waste their time
in capturing prisoners while their ammu
nition lasted. If it did give out, they
might capture a few for hanging purposes.
Such-utterances by a man high in Be-
publiean authority, the head of the Be-
publican Congressional Executive Com
mittee, are, of course, calculated to
cement the sections together in prosperity
and friendship!
The Civil Bights Bill.—A ’Washing
ton dispatch says: Judge Hoar, to whom
Charles Sumner bequeathed his. civil
rights bill, is to have a tussel with Ben
Butler as to who shall manage the bill
this session: Hoar says that Butler has
nothing to do with it He favors the
Senate bill now on the Speaker’s table,
while the Beast wants to pass a bill fixed
up by his committee, amending the Sen
ate bill in respect to the school feature
and common cemeteries. This last is
probably the administration ■ policy. The
Democrats will not agree to either bill,
and, if either be pressed, will report to
all parliamentary agencies to-defeat it
If Hoar ousts Butler, as he proposes,
the latter threatens to ventilate the in

get into a scrimmage, to make the fur fly.
