TAPPING THE WIKES.
At a meeting of the Blackburn weavers
held Friday, the delegates reported that the
misters had resolved to enforce the pro
pped redaction in wages. Mach angry
feeling was manifested, which it is feared
will result in a determination to 6trike.
Devavanya, Hungary, which was lately
threatened with inundation,is now consider
ed to be safe.
The House yesterday was occupied all
day in considering, in committee of the
whole, the army appropriation bill. Mr.
Tucker, of Virginia, offered an amendment
to repeal section 1,218 of the Revised
Statutes, which prohibits the appointment
to the army cf any person who served in
any capacity in the late Confederate States.
A point of order was made by Conger, of
Michigan, against the amendment, which,
after some discussion, was sustained by the
Chairman. Several other minor amend
ments were offered, and at leDgth section C,
to prohibit the use of the army at the polls,
was reached. Upon this an interesting debate
followed, which may be regarded as the pre
liminary skirmish to a long battle. The de
bate was participated in by Messrs. Carlisle,
of Kentucky, on the Democratic side, and
Messrs. Frye, Robeson and others, Republi
cans. Late in the afternoon Hon. A. II.
Stephens obtained the floor, and will ad
dress the House to-day.
A serious effort is to be made in London
to help Turkey out of her difficulties, which
have become so pressing as to alarm the
British Government.
Henry Rochefort writes that he did not
authorize the appeal lately make for his am

Fitz-Jobn Porter has at length been com
pletely vindicated, and the Grand Army of
the Republic’s Society of the Fifth army
corps have fired a congratulatory salute over
the fact.
A voting in the bureaux of the French
Senate shows ninety-three Senators in favor
of a return of the Chambers to Paris, and
one hundred and thirty against it. As
seventy-seven Senators were absent, how
ever, ihe r esult in a full sitting is still un
certain.
Habessah Douglass, a young girl nineteen
years of age, while walking the streets of
Dauphin, Pa., was yesterday met by a mar
ried man named Gaynor, who drew a pistol
and shot her dead. Jealousy is thought to
have been the cause of the murder.
The New York Elevated Railway Com
pany has been censured for gross negligence
on account of the recent accident on their
road.
In the debate in the Reichstag Thursday
over the question of an autonomous govern
ment for Alsace-Lorraine, the speakers of all
parties concurred in favor of the measure,
within the limits calculated to insure Alsace-
Lorraine ever remaining a part of the Ger
man Empiie. Bismarck’s speech was again
remarkable for its moderation,and heeaid he
held himself bound in all conscience to try
and meet the wishes of the people of that
province.
A letter from Bangkok, Siam, states that
the arrival of American goods in Siam are
Increasing, and are much sought after by
both natives and foreigners.
A meeting of Roman Catholic priests,
held in Cincinnati on Thursday night, to
perfect plans for the relief of Archbishop
Purcell, was thrown into some excitement
by the announcement that the Archbishop
had appointed a committee to solicit sub
scriptions. This appointment was under
stood to mean that the committee appointed
by the priests was entirely Ignored. The
meeting finally adjourned without aov
united action in the matter.
In the British House of Commons yester
day, Mr. Stanhope, Under Secretary for In

Afghanistan had failed, and an advance of
troops had been ordered.
The Louisville bar yesterday held a meet

Judge John M. Elliott, and also to express
the high d6teem in which he was held.
Eugene Kelly, of New York, telegraphs

Captain J. B. Eads has received a tele
gram stating that Captain Brown’s official
survey of the jetties at the mouth of the

results.
A warm and excited debate upon whom
the responsibility of the late Zulu disaster
should rest occurred in the English House of
Commons yesterday. It was very generally
participated in both by the government and
the opposition.
A caucus of Greenbackers and 6oft-money
Democrats was held in Washington yester
day. About thirty were present, and reso
lutions were adopted asking for the passage
of bills to increase the coinage of silver; to
issue certificates receivable for all dues and
the purchase of silver bullion ; to reissue
retired greenbacks ; to substitute legal ten
der for national bank notes ; to stop ail Jin-
Increase of the national ‘debt, and to pro
vide for a tax on Incomes of over two thou
aand dollars.
General Toombs on the City Bonds.
Wc have been shown a private letter
to a gentleman of this city giving the
eubstance of a conversation between the
writer and General Robert Toombs on
the subject of the new city bonds.
The General says that he was “among
the first to accept the compromise, and
with the many safeguards thrown around
the Savannah bonds, he considered them
a first class investment; that with State
bonds at their present figure, he thinks
Savannah fives should be worth fully
ninety.”
We present the above opinion of Gen
eral Toombs without comment, further
than to say that his sound judgment on
financial matters has never been dis
puted.
The City's Water Snpply.
At length, after considerable delay, it
seems quite probable that the long talked
of plan for supplying the city with an
abundance of pure and wholesome water
will be carried into effect. At the meet
ing of Council held on Wednesday, the
19th inst., the report of the joint com
mittee on this subject, of which Mr. D.
G. Purse was Chairman, was presented
From some cause or other objec tions
were made at that time to this report
and a new committee was appoint
ed. This last committee, after
again examining carefully into the mat
ter, have come to the conclusion that no
better plan for effecting the desired ob
ject can be devised—all things, such as
expense, etc., being considered—than the
one presented by 3Ir. Purse, and we
presume that Council, at its next session
will take final action in the matter
A visit to the point just in rear of the
Central Railroad wharf, from which the
city obtains its supply of water at present
will readily convince any one of the ne
cessity of some such action, and that the
sooner it is taken the better. The canal
which now supplies the city’s basin is fed
from what is hardly anything more than
a lagoon or pool of water. Hence, when
water is now drawn off for the city
use, the surface water, which has been
thus standing for hours, is the first
pass into the basins. We do not mean
to imply that this water is specially un
wholesome, or that it is very impure
but one thing is certain it is much more
likely to be both impure and unwhole
some than other water which might be
readily drawn from the Savannah river.
The plan to remedy this, as proposed
by the committee, is very simple and en
tirely feasible. All that is proposed to be
done is to run a wooden box culvert from
the present mouth of the supply basin
canal, under ground, out some distance
into the deep water of the river, where
there is a constant current. This done,
it is proposed to draw off water into
the basins at three quarters tide, when
not only will all refuse matter which
may be floating on the surface have
been carried several miles up the river,
but an abundance of water from some
distance below the surface, and the
purest, sweetest and best which the
river contains will fill the basins,
Manifestly this will be vastly preferable
to the half stagnant supply which, under
existing circumstances, we are required
to use.
The distance to which it will be neces
sary to carry this proposed culvert is
about 975 feet, and the entire construe
tion will only cost about $4,000. Thi:
also will really be diminished abou
$1,000, since, even if the proposed im
provement be not carried out, the dyke
at present used is sadly in need of
pair, and upon this at least $1,000 must
be expended. So it will be seen tin
actual expense to the city for th<
proposed improvement will only be abou;
$5,000—a sum which can readill
be afforded, especially when the substao
till benefits to be conferred by such ex
penditure are considered. We hope,
therefore, that this long mooted subject
will at last be acted upon, and Savan
nah will speedily be furnished with
bountiful supply of the purest of water,
against which no possible objection can
be raised.
Governor Colquitt.
Alluding to the effort that has beer,
made in some quarters to hold Governor
Colquitt reprehensible for not preventing
the murder of Colonel Alston, the Au
gusta Chronicle and Constitutionalistsay
“The evidence before the Coroner’s jury
was clear and conclusive that Governor
Colquitt did all in his power to prevent
the tragedy. Some correspondents have
taken occasion to condemn the Gov
ernor for not arresting Cox, 8!Td for not
sending Colonel Alston home. We fail
to see wherein Governor Colquitt did
not do his duty. He acted promptly in
trying to prevent the difficulty, and he
is no more to blame for the killing of
Colonel Alston by Ed. Cox than the
Governor of Alabama.
“There has been a purpose manifest
for some time to weaken the adrainistra
tion of Gov. Colquitt, and to undermine
him personally in the esteem of the pco
pic. It will be difficult to estrange pub
lie confidence from Gov. C. His oppo
nents will fail in their efforts. He
doing his duty in the high and responsi
nle position where he has been placed—
this, too, with credit to himself, and to
the satisfaction of hi3 people. His ad
ministration has been characterized by
‘ wisdom, justice and moderation.’ ”
Memphis finds that she has not
sloughed off trouble with her corporate
existence by any means. The receiver
appointed by the United States Circuit
Court, at the instance of the city’s credi
tors, has been at work collecting back
taxes and seizing all of the late city’s
assets that he could get hold of. But
Governor Marks has also appointed a re
ceiver, by the Tennessee Legislature’s
direction, and he claims the right to hold
everything for the State. Meanwhile
commissioners are trying to arrange the
affairs of the present taxing district, and
the issues at stake between the opposing
receivers will probably be settled in May,
when Judge Baxter,, of the Circuit
Court, and Justice Swayne, of the
United States Supreme Court, visit the
city to settle the questions relating to the
legal status.
The Blue-Hen’s chickens are stirred
up throughout the coop. Wilmington
rejoices. After forty years of conflict
the Delaware Legislature has ordered the
removal of the court house from New
castle to Wilmington. The Newcastle
hotel-keepers put crape on their doors
and said they were ruined, while the
lawyers there talk about dividing New
castle county.
It has been a matter of wonder how
Senator David Davis, of Illinois, has
been able, amid the conflict of principles
and the turmoil of party strife, to pre
serve his political independence. The
only solution of the question that we can
give is that there i3 not enough of unap
propriated Democracy or Radicalism in
the Senate to leaven such a ponderous
mass of humanity.
Self Protection.—The people of

Tildenand Hendricks.—The Harris
burg correspondent of the Philadelphia
Times says: “As the attitude of Mr.
Headricks with regard to the nomina
tion of himself on a ticket with Mr. Til-
den is a subject of great interest and im
portance, it may be stated that one or
more letters written by him to prominent
memliers of the Democratic party in this
State teem to settle the matter. Mr.
Hendricks’ letters, it is understood, sig
nify not only that he will not refuse to
take the second place with Mr. Tilden,
but that he encourages his friends in the
direction of renominating the ticket of
187C.”
What with caucuses, pompous ad
dresses to the people of the United States,
and an immense amount of threatening,
brag and bluster, the corporal’s guard
of Greenbackers in Congress are endeav
oring to keep themselves before the
country as the nucleus of an embryo
political par»y. As a tail to the Radical
kite, they have attracted some observa
tion, but their assumed importance is
perfectly ridiculous. We read of a
Greenbacker whose self-importance re*
suited in a fatal collapse. As a warning
to the Greenback faction, we refer them
to ^Esop’s fable of the ox and the frog.
The Negro Emigration to Kansas
The now progressing emigration of
Louisiana negroes to Kansas bears two
kinds of Republican fruit It enables
the R.publican preis to plausibly assert
that the cause is Democratic abuse of the
freedmen; and it reduces the population
of a Democratic Slate, while it increases
that of a Republican State—an impor
tant point in view of the taking of a new
census next year, and the reapportion
ment of Congressional and electoral rep
resentation, which is to be based upon
that census. With this latter point no
one can take exception, since the right
to remove from one State to another can
not be questioned. But against the claim
that Democratic abuse is the cause of
the exodus the charge of untruth can
properly be brought. Pinchback is,
perhaps, more than any other colored man
at the South, an acknowledged repre
sentative and leader of the Southern Re
publican negroes. He is now endeavor
ing to stop the tide of emigration. Would
he do so if the Republican charge of
Democratic abuse of the negroes were
true ?
If negro emigration of the class that
is now leaving Mississippi and Louisiana
and pouring into Kansas is an evil, it is
an evil that will cure itself in due time.
The negro will find the white race in
possession in Kansas, and his treatment
there, as in the South, will depend en
tirely upon his good behavior. He leaves
no prejudice behind him that he will no:
encounter where he is going.

The theory of government, as set forth
in the Republican papers of the day, and
as the Republican party has attempted to
practice it in thi3 country, reminds one
of the Count de Gasparin’s observation
on intolerance, that it is an attempt “to
impress upon all consciences one national
physiognomy.” Or perhaps Laboulaye
better expresses the idea of centraliza
tion which give3 birth to intolerance,
when he says of the Roman ideal of or
ganized society, that it was
enormous polypus, and all individuals
were at best like its cellules.” The meas
ure of liberty under these conditions
depends entirely upon the central
authority, and under such conditions the
central authority always destroys libert}’.
The Republican party of this country
would cast the people in one mold and
eliminate individuality. Its spirit is the
essence of intolerance, because it cannot
endure the assertion of the power of con
trary choice. Its iutolerant spirit has no
conception of that freedom which is an
absolute and inalienable right. The Re
publican party in full and unrestrained
power in the United States would be
cruel, monstrous and a persecutor, for its
spirit is and always has been, “Thiak as
I do or I will kill you.”—Courier-Jou
nal.
The Radical majority in Congress for
seventeen years have given no office to
Democrats. They retained a few old
men, who were formerly Jackson men
in places as clerks. These clerks gave
no votes, and made no opposition to
Republican party decrees. Bat Judges,
Foreign Ministers, District Attorneys,
custom house and post office officials
were Republican. The Secretary of the
Senate ran the party machine in Wash
ington for the Republicans. His assist
ants and the assistants of the Sergeant
at-arms were all at work for the Repub
licans in the late elections. Now the
Democrats have appointed good men to
till their places, and the virtuous Ed
munds and the Camerons are indignant
Even the mild Blaine is disturbed. The
Hartford Times is right when it says
“Had not the Democrats turned out that
partisan and machine set they would
never more have had the confidence
the people.”
The debate in the Senate, Monday
wherein the Republicans deprecated the
removal of the Republican officials to
make room for men in harmony with
the dominant party in the Senate, and
wherein “civil service reform” (as the
retention of the Republican officials is
termed) was flaunted as a Republican
principle of action in the past, gives
great interest to the following utterance
in August, 1876, of the Radical organ at
Washington, the National Republican,
the occasion being the making out of
lists for discharges in the various execu
tive departments: “We hope no Demo
crat will be left in the service when
these discharges are finished. No matter
how high the position—no matter who
recommends him, let every Democrat
step down and out.”
Hayti’s New Tariff Regulations.—
The Treasury Department is in receipt
of information that the republic of Hay ti
has passed a law declaring that the duties
upon merchandise shall be paid at the
time of the deliver}’ of the goods, instead
of giving credit as heretofore, and that
no goods shall be held for payment of
duties longer than thirty days, at the end
of which time they will be sold at pub
lie auction to realize the duties due, if
not sooner delivered. The Government
of Hayti does not hold itself responsible
either for damage to the goods or for ac
tual deterioration or deficiencies. The
Haytien Government also imposed a tax
of one dollar per thousand on United
States silver coin imported into that re
public.
Tns Electric Light.—A movement
is on foot at Boston to light the harbor
at night by the electric light It is
thought by placing powerful lamps on
Fort Independence and the wharf of the
Cunard Company the harbor can be
ilium iuated sufficiently to make it safe
for vessels to come to the city in the
darkest night. A San Francisco letter
says: “A powerful company is organized
to light our city with electricity. The
most approved apparatus is on hand,
and numerous patent rights are secured.
Ex-Governor Latham is at its head and

A late Washington special says certain
members of Congress have started a
paper binding the signers to favor an
appropriation for mileage for the special
session. The law expressly prohibits
Congressmen from receiving mileage
oftener than once a year, but by a clause
in the appropriation bill this law can be
repealed. The next thing will be a vote
giving each Congressman a year’s allow
ance of stationery for the extra session,
as was done last Congress.
A scoundrel named D. O. Shaw, who
for several months has been swindling

plying his work at King’s Ferry, in that
State. The Courier-Journal knows noth

agents. It is to be hoped the rascal will
be arrested and punished.
Efforts are making to establish a
foundling hospital in Washington. In
view of the Cameronian developments
we should judge such au institution has
been greatly needed in that city. The
Star frankly admits that “a foundling
hospital would be a much better place of
consignment for abandoned infants than
the sewers or vacant lots, in which the
inquisitive policeman now too frequently
finds them.”

AMERICAN PRODUCTS POPULAR IN EUROPE.
New York, March 28.—A private letter
received here yesterday from Rome contains
the following: “ The American locomotive
that was on exhibition at Paris last year has
been making a tour through France, Swit
zerland and Italy, with most brilliant suc
cess. She attracted great attention at the
places where we stopped and drew large
crowds. The trade in American coal
Is growing 6teadily. A negotiation is
now pending with one party for one
hundred thousand tons and will probably
be concluded. The first cargo was shipped
by the Pride of the Ocean for Marseilles and
arrived in January, 1878, and the most of
was sent from there to Genoa. Since that
cargo there have been twenty-one ship
ments, eight of them going to Genoa, the
balance to Trieste, Marseilles, Cadiz, Bilbao,
Bordeaux, Alexandria, Leghorn and Havre.
Italy will probably be the best market. All
who have tried the American coal are well
pleased with it, and the indications
favorable for a fine trade. The Paris Exhibi
tion did a great deal towards popularizing
American products.”
CAUCUS OF GREENBACKERS AND SOFT MONET
DEMOCRATS.
Washington, March 28.—A caucus
Greenbackers and soft money Democrats
was held to-night. About thirty were pres
ent, prominent among whom were Messrs.
Kelly, Reagan, Springer, Ewing, Lowe,
Murch, De la Matyr, and others. The debate
referred particularly to the financial policy
of the government. Resolutions were
passed asking for the passage of bills to in
crease the coinage of silver to the
capacity of our mints, and to issue
certificates receivable for all public
dues, and the purchase of silver
bullion at market rates; to reissue green
backs now held for redemption ol fraction
al currency or hereafter retired for the pay
meat of the arrears of pensions and in the
extinguishment of the bonded debt; for
providing for the substitution of legal ten
ders for national bank notes ; to stop all in
crease of the national debt, and to provide
for a tax on incomes of over two thousand
dollars. Mr. Wright, of Pennsylvania, pre
sided over the caucus.
DEBATE ON THE ZULU W’AR.
London, March 28.—In the House of
Commons to day, Mr. Hanbury reopened
the dr bate on the Zulu war in a speech de
fending the government and Sir Bartle
Frere. Mr. Lowe commenced to urge the
recall of Sir Bartle Frere, but having lost
his notes he broki down and resumed his
seat. Sir Robert Peel, Conservative,
tucked Sir Bartle Frere and declared
that the blood of the soldiers spilled
in the Zulu war was upon the head
of Lord Chelmsford, until he should
be acquitted by a court martial. Sir Chas.
ltussfeil warmly defended Lord Chelmsford.
Mr. Walter Henry James attacked and Mr,
Henry Chaplin supported the government
Sir Henry Holland, Conservative, strongly
condemned the retention of Sir Bartle Frere.
Lord Colin Campbell said the government
had wasted precious weeks before they cen
eured Sir Bartle Frere, and were responsible
for the war for which they sought to blame
the latter.
WEEKLY COTTON BROKERS CIRCULAR.
Liverpool, March 28.—This week's circu
lar of the Liverpool Cotton Brokers’ Asso
ciation says: “The cotton market was very
animated on F/iday and Saturday and
large business was done at a considerable
advance. Oa Monday and Tuesday the de
maud fell off and prices gave way, but on
Wednesday, with renewed activity, there
was more firmness, and on Thursday the
market advanced. In American a large busi
ness was done at a farthing to three-fourth
pence higner rates. Sea bland was
a’r dtiQuu I, and firm. Futures opened
strong, with considerable business on
Friday and Saturday, and advanced 3-16<l.
On Monday, with a pressure to sell, they
declined j^d. There was a recovery on
Tuesday, but it was not maintained. On
Wednesday, with an active demand, the de
cline wa> fully recovered, and on Thursday
a large .business was done at higher prices.
The final rates show an advance of a farth
ing on last Thursday.”
ADVICES FROM MEXICO.
City of Mexico, via New Orleans,
March 28 —Aq official paper contradicts the
report that President Diaz intends to visit

ment is not disposed to enter into a com
mercial treaty with the United States, on
the basis of the McLeon-Ocampo treaty, be
cause it is considered to be to the disad
vantage of Mexico.

of troops had been ordered, as reported in
the Standard this morning. He added that
he could say that the information to hand,
with regard to Afghan affairs, did not
agree with the statement of that journal.
ROVISION FOR THE RETURN OF THE CHAM
BER OF DEPUTIES.
Paris, March 28.—The majority cf the
Senatorial committee on the proposal for a
Congress, appear to maintain their opposi

tors and Deputies belonging to the Left,
that the Congress, if convened, should dis
cuss no change to the constitution except
such as was necessary to provide for the re
turn of the Chambers to Paris.
AFFAIRS IN BULGARIA.
London, March 28.—A correspondent of

Cruelty to the Insane.—A Colum
bus, Ohio, dispatch to the New York
Timessays an investigation of the affairs
of the Ohio State Asylum for the Insane
shows that the patients have been sub
jected to the most brutal punishments.
One of the penalties was ducking in cold
water. The sick have been forced to
work in rooms where the temperature
was one hundred and ten degrees, and
upon their refusal to do so were stripped
of all their clothing and wet towels used
as whips. The punishment is described
as very painful, but leaving no marks on
the person. Men were knocked down
and a gag was inserted in the moutb and
kept there until the victim became weak,
exhausted and the face turned purple.

F. L. Cardoza, ex-State Treasurer of
South Carolina, who was convicted
some time since of some crookedness in
connection with his office, and who has
been a refugee from the State, returned
to Columbia on Monday, surrendered
himself to the Sheriff, and was lodged in
jail. The Supreme Court of the State
refused him a new trial before he disap
peared from South Carolina.
The trial of ex-Governor Chamberlain
and other ex members of the South
Carolina Land Commission, which was
called in the Circuit Court, at Columbia,
S. C., Monday last, was postponed on
motion of Chamberlain's counsel, on
account of the death of one of the chil
dren of his client and the illness of the
rest of his family, including Chamber
lain.
The ticket offices at Edge water and
Beverly, New Jersey, on the Pennsyl
vania lioad, were entered Tuesday night
and a large amount of money and tickets
stolen.
Thirty-one Chinamen were arrested on
Tuesday night in New York, in a Chi
nese gambling house, for playing a game
called tan, but after a hearing Wednes
day were discharged from custody.
The ladies sing “in the sweet ‘buy’ and
‘buy’ we will meet in that beautiful store,”
and we certainly can raise no objection.
But remember the little one6 at home and
do not leave the nuree without a bottle of
Dr. Bull’s Baby Syrup. It
