TAPPING Til K WIRES.
The entente corduile between Russia and
Boumania does not seem, according to a
Daily News dispatch, to be of the most
friendly character; and because of the fact
that It lutnama is a gathering placo for
roles, extraordinary precautions were taken
by tbe Russian police accompanying the
headquarters of the Czar, rooking to bis
personal safety. The Russians demanded
the unlimited right to arrest suspicious per
sons, which was refused by the Roumanian
Government as contrary to the Russo-Rou
manian Convention, and also the constitu
tion. It is thought, however, that a oom-
promiso will be made on these questions bv
the establishment of a state of siege at Bu
charest.
Mr. Hayes is said to have notified tbe
horde of hungry office seekers from Louis
iana that it is his intention to divide the
offices into thirls—one third for the native
Fireworks and Fires.
Now that the fourth of July is ap
proaching, that day which young America
has always been in the habit of cele
brating with fireworks of all kinds, to
the imminent danger of travelers and
property, it is well to call attention to a
few pertinent facta. All over the
country, experience of the past is in
ducing the municipal governments of
the different cities to act in the matter,
and prohibit the continuance of the
usage. It ought to be discontinued for
many reasons.
In the first place, at this particular
period, there is an universal cry of hard
times. From the most thriving mer
chant down to the humblest laborer como
up the same oomplaint; business dull and
money scaroe. The underwriters gen
erally are moving in opposition to this
display of fireworks, and have gathered
together statistics showing the amount of
monev which has been literally burned
up by this means. They show that
during the past twelve years $1,500,000
have been fired off—$125,000 per annum.
Surely that of itself is sufficient, if we
consider the subject in an economical
light alone, to speak against the custom.
But this is not the most serious fact
presented by any means. We are further
informed that the destruction of proper
ly caused directly by fire crackers in the
same period, amounts to $15,000,000, or
$1,000 of property destroyed for every
$100 expended in fireworks. And, be it
remembered, that thisisa losswhich can
not be repaired. The property may be
insured, still, when destroyed by fire, it is,
after all, a dead loss, for it is so much
money taken away from the general stock
in the oountry. In the ratio of ten of a
loss to every one expended, it would seem,
then, that ev;ry ten cents paid for
paok of fire crackers, involves the
country in a loss of one dol
lar. Rather an expensive investment,
and we have no doubt that the above is
a small estimate, for, if our memory is
oonect, the great conflagration in Port
land, Maine, some years ago, was directly
traceable to fireworks, and that alone goes
very far towards making up the total of
$15,000,000 given by the underwriters.
Of course we presume that dealers in
l fireworks will oppose our proposed em-
Republ.cans.one third for the carpel bag- b n tlleir warts> but if ev6n they wU1

From Galatz bands of Russian forces
frequently cross the river ou reconuoisauces,
having for their obj >ct the noting of the
condition of the river. The position of the
Turkish forces is fully known to the Rus

The Russians, according to the News'
authority, are compiaiuiug ol tbe ill will and
dilatoriness of tbe Roumanians, aud tne

take time to think, they will see that their
opposition is based ou poor grounds, for
the profit to them is very small compared
to the risk they run in damage to their
own property. Only a few years ago here
in Savannah the store of one of these
dealers in fireworks was destroyed by the
discharge of a pack of fire crackers he
bad himself, but a few moments before,
sold, and protection to them is as impor
tant and necessary ns it is to every other
rises.
This is really a subject worthy the
i-erious attention of our city fathers.* If
an ordinance of the nature wo propose is
passed now it will protect everybody; not
only the general property holder, but also
the dealers in the dangerous articles, for if
these latter know that they will not meet
with ready sale for their goods, they will
lay in no stock of explosives for the
fourth of July, but will invest their
money in something useful. We have
said nothing on the head of the danger to
passers by in carriages and horse vehicles
of every description, though that is a
point also worthy of attention. We
think we have said enough, however, to
justify the suggestion we have mad--, aud
respectfully refer the whole subject to
the City Council.
White and Black Mortality.
The health report of Charleston, S. 0.,
presents some facts touching the compar
ative vigor of whites and blacks that it is
not easy to explain. The population of
the city is 56,0d0—2t,000 whites and
32,000 colored persons. As the colored
persons outnumber the whites, of course
the mortality tables embrace a greater
number of tbe former than of tbe latter;
but the disproportion of deaths' is strik
ingly greater than the disproportion in
the population. Thus, among the whites
there were 608 deaths, and among tbe
colored persons 1,344 deaths in 187G—or
twice as many among the latter os
among the former, though the colored
population exceeds the whites only one-
third. In 1875 there were G24 deaths
among the whites and 1,240 among
the blacks—still about the same dispro
portion. In 187G there were 27 deaths
iu the thousand among the whites and 42
in the thousand among tbo blacks. Tbo
difference is still more strikingly exhibi
ted in the infant mortality. About 44
per ceut. of all the deaths were of chil
dren under five years old, or 89G; bul of
this number ouly 238 wero white children
and 658 colored—or nearly three of the
latter to one of the former. These facts,
says the St. Louis Republican, are not
explained by the inability of tbe colored
people to securo medical attendance, fur
medical attendance can bo had by the
poor, white and black alike, without cost,
and there is probably no city in tho
United States where the colored popula
tion are in a more comfortable condition
than Charleston.
“A Very Pretty Qu«rreL”
In these days of hard times and husi
ness depression, when men are prone to
despondency over the prospect ahead,
there is always reason for gratitude for
anything which can dissipate gloom and
excite an interest sufficient to cause oare
to be forgotten. And especially is this
tbe case at this particular time, when the
heated term is abou' setting in, and we
are all, in a degree, prevented frem vigor
ously exerting ourselves seeking for those
diversions which msy be readily resorted
to in cooler weather.
In this view of the case we should be
very glad of the qnarrel which has taken
place between McVeigh and Butler. It
requires no undue exertion to enjoy it,
all that is necessary is to sit down under
one’s own vine and fig tree, and while
perusing the Mobxinq News in the cool
of the day, take in the situation in all its
bearings, and enjoy the blows given and
received on either side.
So far, Mr. McVeigh has decidedly the
best of the fight. His remark regarding
the facility with which a military com
mander in time of war can appropriate
other people's spoons and thi ngs to his own
use, with impunity, was a home thrust.
The Beast is exceedingly restive under it,
while his efforts to retaliate and parry its
effect arc labored and weak.
He attempts to turn it off in this wise
‘•Every one has his own taste in choos
ing his way to acquire mouey, but if
were obliged to ohoose one of two ways,
either to appropriate it as a military com
mandant or to marry iuto a family where
I was neither wanted nor by which
should be respected, to get money to
spare, I certainly should choose the
former, strange as jou may think it, be
cause at least I should have the money
after having committed a disreputable
act to get it, aud would not be liable to
be disappointed as I might be after I had
waited so long for dead men’s shoes by
the other method."
Now it is very well established in the
belief of every one in America—no
matter whether Lord Beaconafield and
Dean Stanley agree with us or not—that
Ben Butler hud rather make his money by
appropriating to his own use the proper
ty of others (provided always that he can
do so with impunity), than in any other
way. Id plain English, there is an excite
ment about the act of stealing which, if
not followed by punishment, is peculiarly
attractive to his constitution. And,
while it is not considered very “high-
toned” or manly in a man to marry
the daughter of a rich father
simply for mouey, still the
world at large is much more inclined to
be lenient to one so doing than towards
simple thief. The former certainly
has to make some sacrifice; for even if
he proves fortunate in his domestic rela
tions, he most generally has to exeroise
great deal of patience and fortitude
while waiting “so long for dead men’s
shoes;” the latter is only called upon to
forfeit his character, and we all know
what a slight sacrifice that amounts to in
oases similar to that of B. Butler.
We do not pretend to intimate that Mr.
MacVeigh is guilty of the charge brought
against him by Butler, and it will surely
require more than that individual’s sim
ple word to aeoure credenoe for what he
asserts. Certain it is though, that Mac-
Veigh has pierced a bestial hide, hitherto
so thoroughly encased iu impudence
as to be generally regarded as impervious
to any dart, no matter how sharply
barbed with truth or pungent wit, for tbe
Beast squirms aud roars with greater pain
than he has ever before manifested, and
is perfectly unmindful in his rage of the
feelings of his own son-in-law, Adelbert
Ames. AU we do say is that MacVeigh
deserves much credit for what he has ac
complished, and if he really wishes a plum
from his father in-law’s garden, old Simon
ought to give him a hundred thousand
cash at least. B. B. Butler has never been
so completely bottled up since the days he
fell into the trap set for him by Beaure
gard.
Governor Wade Hampton is to-day
more honored and genuinely respected in
the North than is His Fraudulency, the
aliunde President of the United States.
The Governor has been invited to attend
tbe twenty-eighth anniversary of the
Shields Guards of Auburn, New York, on
the 20th instant, and we learn has ac
cepted the invitation. This is a sponta
neous outburst of a desire on the part of
a Northern military organization to do
honor to a man who koew his rights,
and knowing dared maintain thorn, in
spite of the attempt to deprive him of
them by fraud. But when the aliunde de
facto is invited anywhere, it is simply as
a figure-head, and beoause the parties so
inviting him cannot help themselves
Therein lies the difference.
The will of the late Fletcher Harper
was offered for probate in New York on
Saturday. It bequeathes nn estate of from
tivo -hundred thousand dollars to seveo
hundred thousand dollars. His widow,
Jane F. Harper, is made the executrix,
aud his nephews, Joseph W., son of
Wesley, and John W., son of John arj
tbe executors. Most of the estate, con
sisting of the house at No. 14 West Twen
ty-second street, the country seat at Ir
vington, tbe stables, carriages, etc., aud
the interest of Mr. Harper iu the pub
lishing house, are left to the widow und
the testator's two sons, Joseph W. and
Fletcher. Small legacies are given to dis
tant relatives, and bequests of five hun
dred dollars to each of several children
named after him, among them sons of
tho llev. William H. Milburn, the “blind
preacher,” and of the Rev. Lemuel Bangs.
Contraction.—The Nashville Ameri
can says: “The purpose of tbe Secretary
of the Treasury to retire as much of the
greenback circulation as he oan control,
is shown in the debt statement for May.
He reports among other items of money
in the treasury $7,762,000 held for re
demption of fractional currency. As
nearly all the fractional currency be
lieved to be in existence has been re
deemed already the hoarding of this
amount of greenbacks for that purpose
is unnecessary. It is kept out of cir
culation evidently as part of the con
traction policy which the Secretary is
pursuing as a preparation for resump
tiou.”
It is stated that Cossacks have been soon
in the distriot of the Valley of Tchuruk, at
Ipaar. If this statement la true, communi
cation with Trebizood, an important depot
of auppliea for the Turkish army, will prob
ably be interrupted. Trebizond is a port
on the Blaok Sea, about one hundred aud
thirty miles northwest from Erzeroum, and
about one hundred miles north of Erzin-
gan.
The Ohio Demockact Exuberant.—
number of Ohio Democratic poli
ticians arrived in Washington cn
Monday, including John G. Thomp
son, Chairman of the State Com
mittee and Sergeant-at-Arms of the
late House. A dispatch says they are all
in the most exuberant spirits over Demo
cratic prospects in Ohio, and aver with
out hesitation that they will sweep every
thing next October. They say that the
Democratic Convention, which moots in
advance of the Republican Convention,
will tako the wind ont of the sails of the
latter by putting forth a platform which
will leave nothing to be said on the cur
rency aud other issues before the people.
A Colored Army Officer.
Lieutenant Flipper ia his auus. He is
a living result of the policy of Radical
ism, whioh has declared from tbe first its
determination that, under any eircum-
stances, the Amerioan citizen of African
deeoent shall enjoy all the privileges of
his white brethren. Carrying out this
determination, and not dismayed at the
fate of colored Cadet Smith, who figured
so largely in West Point annals a few
years ago, Cadet Flipper was sent to
that institution to try his hand. He
has graduated, and now holds the com
mission of Second Lieutenant of cavalry
in tbe United States army, the first of his
race who bas ever attained such a po
sition.
It will be ourious to watch young Flip
per’s career as an officer. Time was,
when army officers were a very aristocrat
ic and exclusive set of gentlemen. Wheth
er they still hold to their old ideas, or
not, we know not. There seems to be
enough of the old feeling left, however,
to justify the belief that until some other
descendants of African parents graduate
at the institution, Flipper will have a
lonely time. Daring his cadetship, we
learn from no less an authority than the
New York Tribune, “the paper founded
by Horace Greeley,” that he was let
severely alone by his fellow students.
According to that paper, one of the ca
dets said, “We have no feeling against
him, but we could not associate with
him. It may have been prejudice,
but still we couldn't do it.” This
showB very clearly the animus which wiil
exist in the army against the oolored
offioer. If at West Point, where he had
to drill, reoite, eat, and, perhaps, sleep
with his white brothers, they couldu’t
associate with him (notwithstanding the
fact that the majority of these whiles
were Northern meu and ardent advocates
of Radicalism, with its civil rights and
social equality reoord,) how can it be ex
pected that they will overcome their pre
judioes any more readily after they be
come officers. The Tribune thinks they
will, aud that, in time, the army will not
hesitate to receive young Flipper and ail
of hia race who may hereafter graduate at
West Point, with open arms; but the
chances are that the Tribune is wrong.
Your model Yankee is very willing to use
the negro as a hobby horse upoo which
to ride into place and power, but when it
comes to inviting him to his house and
embracing him as a brother, he is very apt
to be found wanting. The only society
Lieutenant of Cavalry Flipper can ever
hope to enjoy is that whioh will exist
when there are enough of his race in the
army to form a corps cTAfrv/ue, and by
that time he will be too old to delight in
social pleasures. Meanwhile, he will be
doomed to a life of solitude and Belf
oommunings, and be subjected to many
such snubs as the venerable Frederick
Douglass has but reoeutly received at the
hands of that champion mourner for the
poor African—Rutherford B. Hayes.

[By Cable to tbe Morning News.)
Two colored persons who had been
commissioned to be Postmasters of towns
in Louisiana have reported that they
havo been threatened with mobbing by
the whites, and are afraid to take the
offices. In both these cases represents
tious are made to the Post Office Depart
ment by parties whose good standing is
certified to by Representative Elli3 that
the men are, by reason of illiteracy, etc.,
unfit for the positions. The department
wiil give a thorough investigation and
due weight to all such charges, but not
while its authority is set at defianoe and
possession is forcibly refused to the
holders of its commissions. The special
agent is, therefore, directed first to mstal
the men in their offices, and afterward re
port whether they should be removed.
Iu retiring from the editorship of the
New York Express, Mr. Erastus Brooks
gives the result of nearly half a century's
experience, as follows: “ Iu the forty-
one years past at least one hundred and
twelve daily New York city journals have
been born and are now dead, leaving not
so many regular journals in this city now
as there was twenty-five years ago; and
with the constantly increasing expenses
of daily journalism the chances are that
there will not be as many newspapers
published in this city twenty-fivo years
hence as there aie at present, nor, if ex
perience teaches anything, will there be
any occasion for them.”
An enterprising Philadelphia clotbi-r
advertises tbe fact that he made ex-
Presidcnt Grant a now uuiform before
his departure for Europe. It would
seem from this that the Geueral does
propose to don his military toggery on
state occasions after all. If hiB vanity
should prompt him to make such an ex
hihition of himself he cau, according to
tho Washington Star, under the existing
law, wear only the uuiform of h's highest
volunteer rank, that of a Msj >r General,
the chief insignia of which is two stars
on either shcnlder.
While Si van mill continues to present a
good health record, it seems that some of
her sister cities are not so fortunate. The
Baltimore Gazette mentions the fact that
the health ol that city is not as good as
it was a year ago, and attributes it to the
remarkable change of temperature re
cently experienced there. The thermom
eter fell forty degrees in twenty four
hours. Very, natural that where such
unprecedented variations in temperature
take place, the result should be uufavor-
rble to health. Cholera infantum is said
to be playing special havoc among chil
dren in Baltimore.
Beast Butler is wroth ! Ho has mash
ed his beaver on his brow, buckled on his
harness, smeared his face with war paint,
and set his lance in rest. With
his sinister eye on de facto
Hayes, he scowls fierce defiance at Mac
Veigh, and is desperately intent on a fight
or a foot-race. But things ain’t now as
they used to was. The bloody shirt don’t
nave worth a cent, and we may say to
the burly Beast, in the language of the
immortal bard:

Senator Thurman was anxious the Ohio
Democrats should not hold their State
Convention till after the Republicans had
made their nominations, while General
MorgaD, General Ward, Mr. Sayler and
other unwashed Buckeyes insisted upon
meeting earlier, as the Republicans were
preparing to steal tho Democratic thun

an early convention. The latter pre
vailed.
The New York World desires to know
if Boss Shepherd is responsible for tbe
anishing of the petitions for the re

fourteen thousand signatures attached
thereto, including those of every leadin
business man and bankers in the Distric’,
all the lawyers but ten, and several of the
Judges. Dr. William P. Young, the
Boss’s brother-in-law, had them in
charge. The Boss called on him. The

“ Carpet bag journalism is rapidly fol

rate, we are glad it is leaving oar seotion.
In the oity of Boston the loss by tbe
depreciation of value of real estate is offi
cially stated at $100,000,000 during the

on the subject. The loss is estimated at
donble the amount given for Boston.
Some of onr Republican contempora,

London, June 7.—While the advices from
MoDtenegro are conflicting, Nicsic ap
pears to be seriously threatened. Osrinich
Blockhouse, commanding the entrance of
the plain of Nicsic, has been evacuated,
most of the garrison escaping to Nicsic.

Bucharest, June 7.—Extensive prepara

quantity of chain cables has boon accumu
lated at this depot. Tbs pieces on tbe
Danube whither this mateiial will be moved
is not known.
Bands of Russian soldiers frequently
cross tbe river at Galatz and make their
way as far as tho bills opposite tbe city. The
object of these reconuoisauces is not so
mnch to ascertain the position of the Turk
ish troops, which are already well known, as
to watch tho progress of tho water on the

Several specials confirm the, report that
Bucharest is about to be proclaimed iu a
state of siege.
The R issia ■ police, owiug to tbe seputa-
tiou of Roumauia as & gathering place for
Foies and other turbulent characters,
deemed it necessary to take even more than
usually severe precautions for the safety of
the Czar. As well as sending a host of se
cret police, they demanded the unlimited
right of arresting suspicions individuals.
The Roumanian Government refused to
grant this, because it was in direct viola
tion both of tbo Russo-Roumanian Con
vention and the constitution of the
country. The Grand Duke Nicholas
manifested bis displeasure at this re
fusal by taking no notice of Prime
Mibister Bratiano and M. Cogalniceano,
Foreign Minister, when they went to meet
him on tbe occasion of his last visit to
Bucharest. Tbe Roumanian Government,
though it bas as yet made do sign of
yielding, will probably compromise by con
senting to proclaim a state of siege, which
would permit the exceptional measures do-
aired by the Russians. In other respects mat
ters do not appear to be going quite smooth
ly. Tbe Russians are oomplaiuing of the
ill will and dilatoriness of the Roumanian
authorities, and tbe latter of the offensive
and almost brutal behavior of the Russian
officers.

London, June 7.—The following is the
Turkish account of the position of affairs in
Aaia Minor : On the morning of the Sth of
June Moukhtar Pasha’s headquarters, with
nine battalions, were at Koprikos. The
Tnrkish right, consisting of twenty bat
talions, was at Delibaba, and tbe Turkish
lelt wing, sixteen battailous, was at Guardje
and Baggagzc, aud about six hours march
from Erzeroum. The samo account as
signs four batteries of artillery to
these forty-live battalions, which seems
inoredible, though it has been
repeatedly staled from various sources
that the Turks m Asia Minor were almost
destitute of artillery. This report places
the main body of the Russiau’s right wing
at Olti, with an advanced guard at Marimau,
and the Russian centre at Soghauh Dagb.
The Russian left bas suspended tbe forward
movement. A Russian detached columu is
approaching Van, and has reached the

at Paris telegraphed to Constantinople and
received tho following from Savfet Pasha:
“It is not true that tbe situation of our army
is precarious nor that Kars is invested, nor
that Mouses Pasha’s cavalry was destroyed.
London, Juue 7.—Some official telegrams
from St. Petersburg state that the Russian
Ambassadors to London, Berlin and Vienna,
on their return to their posts, will be able to
give assurances that Russia does not aim at
a political transformation of the map of the
East. Nothing is further removed from her
intentions than to canse fresh European
complications. Russia will oppose the entry
of revolutionary insurrection into the war,
and also endoavor, as in tbe case of Servia,
to prevent participation of vassal and neigh
boring States.
Ploiesti, June 7 The Czar and Prince

Tbe next witness examined waa Silas B.

the present force could not be reduced, and
that Assistant Appraisers should be where
they can exercise careful supervision of
tbe work doue in the Examiners' rooms.
The doors of tbeae rooms can be closed
and none

PARIS NOTES—POLITICAL AND LITERARY.
Paris, June 7.—The Republican clubs
have beeu closed by tbe authorities because
of unauthorized political meetings.
Tbe manager of tbe Egaiite newspaper,
published at Marseilles, has been sentenced
to one moDlb's imprisonment and a fine of
three hundred franca.
Victoran Sardon, the dramatio writer, has
been elected a member of tbe French Acad
emy, defeating tbe Duke d'Andiffret Pas
qui’er by a vote of 19 to 17.
The Monitew announces that a ciroular
will be sent to the members of tbe univer
sities, calling on them to abstain from po
litical discussions.
The Presidents of tbe three sections of
the Left held au important meeting to-day.
The decisions arrived at show remarkable
moderation. It waa decided that M.Gambet-
ta, at the reopening of tbe Chambers, should
move an interpellation on the part of tbe
Left,|but that, contrarv to the opinion of M.
Gambetta himself and M. Thiers, he Bhould
refrain from arraigning the action of Presi
dent MacMahon, whose irresponsibility
should be fully admitted. It was also de
cided that the address in reply to
MaeMabon's message be moderate in
term, though decided in substance, and
that if overtures were made to the majority
with a view to ministerial changes they
should not be rejected without consideration,
although it be necessary to iOBist on the re
tirement of M. Fourton. It waa finally
decided that the question of sanctioning
the budget be left to the budget committee.
A majority of tbe meeting appeared to be
of the opinion that nothing should be done
to render the dissolution inimitable. It was
admitted that M. Fourton’s circular relative
to hawking licenses rendered mauy circum
spect Republican newspapers more luke
warm in their ntteraDoes, and that to give
Republican canvaasers significant hostility
to MacMahon, would lose a number of votes
more.
FAILURE.
Richmond, June T—Horace Blackmur,
agent for the aale of manufactured tobacco,
haa suspended ; liabilities reported at twenty
thousand dollars. He claims to be able to
pay dollar for dollar, and will resume short
ly. He did a large business South and West,
and his embarrassment is due to the return
of a large amount of Southern paper un
paid.
Jersey is said to have been
plundered of over odb hundred dollars a
day for the past four years. The
method was very simple after the
fences” for disposing of tbe
plunder were established, the conductors
simply taking up the tickets without
punching them and handing them over
to be sold again. It is probably tree
in these cases that some authorized ticket
sellers are implicated, but it is evident
that the greater the jnumber of irrespon
sible vendors the greater the opportuni
ties for corruption, and the leas the
chance for detection. While there may
seem, at first glance, an injustice in for
bidding the purchase and sale of
railway tickets by any but authorized
agents, we are more and more
convinced, by tho repeated instances of
the sale of passes, forged tickets and
tickets already used, that it is for the
interest of travelers as well as the rail
ways that the “scalping” offices should
be abolished. The general enactment of
laws Guoh as are now in force in several
States, requiring the companies to re
deem unused parts of tickets at fair pro
portionate rates, would remove any
reasonable objection to confining the
business to tbe appointees of the
oompanies. The instances in which
unsospectiDg travelers—sometimes wo
men without companions—have pur
chased valueless pieces of pasteboard
from the scalpers and have been com
pelled to leave the train, perhaps without
the means of pursuing their journ y, are
not a few, and show that the traveling
publio as well as tbe companies need
protection against ticket swindlers.—
