I ini<$ii©0MiNG Thurman fob the Kaoe.—
£*&? Washington correspondent of the
01 j5p*pinnati Enquirer says: “There is
iaat strong but quiet movement on
b foot here to push Senator Thurman for
ihe Presidential nomination. It is en-
7 : gineered mainly by leading ex-Confede-
- rate Senators end Representatives, promi
nent among whom are Cockrell, of Mis
souri, Gordon and Lamar, together with
several of the most influential supporters
of Mr. Kerr in the contest for the Speak
ership who wer6 not in the Tilden pro
gramme. This movement is rapidly
gaining ground and bids fair to result in
bringing up a nearly solid support for
Thurmau from the Southern States to
the National Convention of the Democ
racy, unless the influences at work here
are counteracted by the friends of Mr
Pendleton and Mr. Hendricks elsewhere.
It is noteworthy that Tilden seems to be
losing ground rapidly in the South and
among Southern men here.”

The Jew and Christian.—Mr. Moody
has been snapped up very suddenly by
the editor of the Jewiah Messenger for ut
tering a libel against the Jews, having
said in one of his 3ermons : “A thousand
Jews met not long ago in Paris, when one
of the orators said, ‘We have the honor
of killing the Christians’ God,’ and this
was greatly applauded.” In reply, the
editor of the Messenger says : “What Mr.
Moody’s object may have been in thus
giving currency to so absurd a fabrica
tion I do not know. But I do assert that
no such meeting was held at Paris, that
such a meeting of one thousand Jews has
not taken place anywhere for years; and
when Jews do meet together they are not
likely to applaud the sentiment quoted.”
A man occupyiug the place Mr. Moody
holds ought to be very careful how he
utters such an atrocious libel against
another religious sect. Charity is one of
the Christian graces he would do well to
cultivate.

Injury to the Cotton Crop,
The New York World thinks there is
comparatively less good staple in the
country now than last year. In the last
seven or eight weeks heavy rains have
been followed by unseasonable cold; and
clear, pleasant days have occurred only
at intervals. Cotton has been beaten out
of the bolls, and the plants broken
down; the cold checked growth, and
many bolls rotted; and many fields
were early abandoned as not worth
going over. The cotton which has
latterly been received at the South
ern markets has therefore comprised
an unusual pi oportion of low grades, and
the better grades are already scarce, not
withstanding the large aggregate buy ply.
The consequence has been, much irregu
larity has occurred in the course of prices;
the high grades have advanced and the
low grades have declined, while the me
dium grades show’ very little change.
While “ordinary” in New York has, in
two weeks, declined J cent, there has
been an advance in “fair” uplands of 3-1G
cent, and in “fair’ Gulfs of 5-1G cent.
The port receipts show an excess of
200,000 bales over last season, but that
this is due in part to the free marketing
of the crop is shown by the fact that on
Friday last the stocks at fifteen interior
towns of the South amounted to only
176,347 bales, against 221,r»H0 bales at the
corresponding date last year. The specu
lation in this as in other staples is likely
to feel the recent decline in gold and the
higher rates for money, but prices of cot
ton are already low, and any increase in
the quantity grown is probably counter
balanced by the poorer condition and de
ficient staple.
MISSISSIPPI POLITICS.
Memphis, January 5.—Governor Ames’s
message to the Legislature was ready yester
day. It opeiiB by calling attention to the
late State election, aud recites the eveuts
occurring at Clinton in September ; that
lawless bands of men controlled other couu*
ties prior to that time, and that violence
reigned elsewhere in the State, and that ap-
pe.tls came for protection from all directions.
The sentiment against the militia was
so powerful as to prevent its
organization, the sentiment growing out
of a fear of the race issue
Under ihese circumstances the Governor
called for national troops, but failed to re
ceive them. A reuewed effort to organize
the militia developed a deep-seated bitter
ness of the race issue, aud a conviction pre
vailed that they would only precipitate t
conflict; but because au attempt was made
to organize aud use the militia force
a class of people rebelled, and to
avoid threatened deeds of violence
committee of prominent citizens—powtrfui
in controlling one political organization—
gave their pledges to preserve peace aud
good order, aud sc-caro a fair election. This
novel and humiliating spectacle in the gov
ernment of a free people was presented.
The regularly organized legal authority
unable to preserve peace aud goo<
order aud secure a' fair election,
the leader of a political organization,
assume to do it without accredited power to
accomplish all tucy might attempt. The
deeds of violence alluded to had the effect
to intimidate many voters. In proof of the
practice of intimidating, the message gives
several instances. The message recom
mends a modification of the fundamental
laws of tho State so as to briDg about a
better feeling between the races.
The State nuances are unprecedentedly
favorable. The real debt of the State be
yond its ability to pay is only half a million
dollars. The expenses of the Stato Govern
ment for the past year were $018,000, a re
duction ot the year previous of nearly $300,
000, while the "receipts have been $400,000
over the disbursements. The message
recommends that taxes bo made payable
only in United States currency. A change
in the public school laws so as to make a
system already good still bettter, is advised.
A liberal appropriation is recommended for
the proper representation of all preducts of
the State at the Centennial Exhibition.
The negroes are dying out. The report
of the Board of Health of New Orleans
for the year 1874. which has just been
printed gives these figures, which show
the annual death rate among the negroes
in that city to be nearly double that of
the whites: The population of the city is
210,000—white, 155,000; colored, 55,000.
The percentage of mortality per 1,000
population, according to race, is in the
case of children under two years of age,
45C.93 of the white race, and 299.48 of
the colored race. In the total mortality
from all causes the death rate is 28.00
among the white people, and 45.53 among
tha black people.
The Chicago Tribune (Rep.) speaks
■well and wisely when it says: “Let the
Democratic House, representing the peo
ple of the nation, bring the currency of
the country to par, raduce its expenditures
$40,000,000 annually, and restore the
purely revenue tax on tea and coffee; let
it use the knife freely, by relieving the
tariff from the parasite protection and it
will do moi e in a single session to bring
the country back to heathfnl prosperity
end permanent wealth than has been
done by Congress since the war closed,
ten years ago.
The mutual council, by agreement be
tween Mr. Shearman, on behalf of Ply
mouth Church, and Mr. Van Cott, on
behalf of Mrs. Moulton, is to convene on
Tuesday, January 18, and is to consist of
representatives of twenty churches and
ten ministers not pastors, half of each
clas3 to be nominated by each party.
Where the council is to convene has not
been determined, Mrs. Moulton object
ing to Plymouth Church as the place of
meeting.
By the report of the Bureau of Vital
Statistics of New York, it appears that
there were 30,674 deaths in that city
during the year 1875. During the same
period 23,813 births were reported. Of
the deaths, 1,222 were occasioned by that
terrible scourge, small-pox, being almost
three times as many as occurred from the
same disease during the preceding year.
A Washington dispatch says Senator
Morton is mustering his forces for his
raid on Mississippi. Several bummers
have already arrived there from Jackson,
Vicksburg and other points with their
carpet-bags full of bloody shirts, and
otherwise loaded to the guards with a
choice assortment of outrages.
■ "Without giving any authority for his
knowledge, a Washington correspondent
of the Cincinnati Commercial makes this
Assertion: “Bishop Ames is for Grant;
Hot openly, with .U the force of a
glftenleafl. persistent and potent will.
The free-trade reviral has rt< -«I Ro»-
whan, a atrong club h*, been organ
ised It is to hbld public meeu.; 01
. month, Lei tU
The President was interviewed recently
by a gentleman who graduated at West
Point and who has maintained a life-long
friendship with Grant on various topics
of general interest. Grant vehemently
opposed the reduction of the army, and
said that, even if the Senate should agree
to the proposed action of the House,
which he doubted, he would most cer
tainly veto the bill when it came to him.
The President gave no special reasons for
opposing the reduction, but is fully de
termined not to permit it.
As it is not the custom of the Democ
racy to consult the wishes of the Presi
dent, in regard to public measures in ad
vance of their notion, it is not probable
that they will be deterred by his imperial
threats from making such a reduction in
the expenses of the army as they may
deem proper in the present embarrassed
state of the national treasury. Let the
President interpose his veto. The ques
tion will then go to the people. Grant is
not yet King.
Speaking of State Legislatures au ex
change says: “New members are like
new policemen who esteem themselves
according to the number of arrests they
make, and the average Assemblyman
thirks to commend himself to his con
stituents by the number of bills he intro
duces and the number of speeches he
makes.” “All of which,’ 1 says the Bal
timore Gazette, “ we endorse. Econ
omy of tongu6 is as much a virtue in a
legislator as any other practice, and pub
lic appreciation of him is in inverse ratio
to his talk.” Members of the Georgia
Legislature make a note, and when found
overhaul your tobacco boxes, and only
rise to explain when you really have some
thing pertinent to say.
The Washington Chronicle., Grants
organ, commenting on some newly dis
covered rascality in the Auditor’s office,
says: “There is a class of people who do
not scruple to defraud their government
whenever it can be done under a proba
bility of escape without detection.” In
its confidential relations with the present
Radical ring administration the Chronicle
has ample opportunities for convincing
itself of that fact. It is a sad truth. But
the worst of it is that under Radical rule
that very class of people are entrusted with
the management of the affairs of the gov
ernment. The way for the country to
get rid of that unscrupulous class of peo
ple is to drive the Radical banditti from
power.
The Cincinnati Enquirer expresses the
opinion that Beecher could be rid of all
these suits and this trouble by confess
ing, and it wouldn’t hurt him a bit. He
would have still larger audiences in
Plymouth Church, and his usefulness
would thereby be enlarged. This is about
equivalant to saying that Beecher owes
Uis present popularity to the general be
lief of his guilt. Well, maybe the En
quirer is right.
The Philadelphia Common Council has
been rebuking the Board of Education of
that city for excluding the Bible from the
public schools. The Chicago Tribune
says the only rational explanation of this
new-born zeal for the Scriptures on the
part of the Aldermanic roughs who rule
and plunder Philadelphia is the hypothe
sis that some publisher of Bibles is will
ing to pay a per centage on his sales to
the schools.
Methodist Bishop Ames is also for
Grant and his third term plan. He is
not so oily and adroit as Bishop Simpson,
but, like Bishop Haven, is more out-
RDoken—though he could not well be a
more c • .‘7e p*rusaii jf Gr ’.l than is
the less noisy but more wily .Simpson.
The Rei .blicans in the Ohio Legisla
ture recognized the colored man.
CONGRESSIONAL.
Washington, January 5.—Tho following
is the text of Morrill’s bill:
Be it enacted, etc., That to further enable
tho Secretary of tho Treasury to provide

SOME FOREIGN NOTES.
London, January 5.—A day or two ago
the Times published a Vienna telegram stat
ing that in reply to a request of the Prince
of Montenegro to be allowed to enter in tbe
action against Turkey, the Russian Gov
ernment advised him on no account to
depart from neutrality. This morning
the Times publishes a letter from Vienna
amplifying and confirming its telegram.
It s- ems the Prince of Montenegro wrote
to Prince Gortschakofl that by following
the wishes of the powers in maintaining
neutrality he directly imperilled his throne
and life. Prince Gortschakoff submitted this
letter to the Emperor of Russia, who di
rected the Chancellor to write to the Prince
of Montenegro to face courageously the
present difficult position, aud on no account
to abandon the policy ol neutrality, express
ing the hope that the situation would soon
improve. The Prince of Montenegro re
plied that he would follow the Czar’s injunc
tions.
Tho Times' Vienna correspondent writes
that the Metropolitan of Mostar, following
tho example of his Catholic colleague, has
issued a pastoral letter in which he has up
braided tbe clergy for fomenting insurrec
tion, and requiring them to leave their evil
ways and return to their duties on pain of
severe punishment, according to his aposto
lic power.
A dispatch from Benares reports the arri
val there this morning of the Prince of
Wales.
A dispatch from Berlin to tho Morning
Post to the effect that the German Govern
ment is favorable to the proposition con
tained in the American note regarding Cuba
is not confirmed. Nothing is known at Ber
lin respecting the views of tho German Gov
ernment in connection with Mr. Fish’s cir
cular.
FOREIGN NEWS.
London, January 5.—A Vicuna dispatch
to the Standard says the reason for tho
coronation of the Archduko Rudolph as
King of Hungary is that the Hungarian
Government has resolved to make a great
demonstration of loyalty, by which it hopes
to gain the supp’ort' of tho imperial
court in the impending negotiations
with Austria relative to the re
vision of the relations between
the two halves of the empires. The feeling
in Vienna is very bitter. All the journals
declaro that a complete separation of Aus
tria and Hungary is preferable to a compli
ance with Hungary’s demand fur a forced
circulation of Hungarian bank notes in
Austria, and the bankruptcy which would
inevitably ensue. The trouble may lead to
tho resignation of tho entire Cisleithan Cabi
net, of which Prince Auersperg is President.
SOUTHERN CLAIMS.
Washington, January 5.—Tho Commis
sioners of Southern Claims to-day transmit
ted to the Rouse eleven special reports in
addition to their fifth general report. The
amount claimed in these eleven cases
was $255,629, of which $39,908 only
was allowed, and $215,721 disallowed.
Adding the first named sum to the amounts
stated in tho fifth general report, the whole
amount of claims disposed of during the
last year was $405,197,470; the amount al
lowed, $53,251,050, and disallowed, $351,-
946,420.
