gestion has again been made that- he
should withdraw from the contest before
the assembling of the National Conven

gine for a moment that this course will
be taken. The New York Herald quotes
a Republican Congressman as saying
that Grant wants the nomination "and
is so anxious and bent on it that he does
not mind what dirty and disgraceful
political trickery is used to secure it for
him." This no doubt is tHe truth, as
Grant himself is credited with having
said, he • ‘cannot be forced from the field

Congress and the Sugar Tariff.
On Thursday last the merchants of
Baltimore held a meeting, which was
largely attended, to discuss the subject
of the present unjust tariff on sugar,
and the proposed bill of Mr. Carlisle,
providing for a uniform duty on all raw
sugars, or sugars that have not been re
fined, and a moderate rate on all the
lower grades of grocery sugars. A com
mittee, which had been appointed by the
Board of Trade to consider the subject,
made a report, showing the great evil
wrought to commerce generally by the
present unfair tariff, under which
Baltimore had lost her former
large import trade in that staple.
“ We had,” say the committee, “ three
large refineries in successful operation
and did an extensive distributing busi
ness in both raw and refined sugars.'
Large employment was given to labor,
to our millers, to our coopers, to our
storekeepers, to our wharf property, to
our bankers and brokers, to our rail
roads ; and nearly all classes of our peo
ple felt the influence of this great trade,
which, indeed, was the most extensive
branch of business of this city. Within
a short period it has all gone away from
ns. Those of our merchants who still
import sugar take it to New York and
Philadelphia, where they can find
market for it One of our refineries
a storage warehouse for cotton, one was
sold for a song to parties in another city
and the property is lying dead, whilst
Itie third has a silent and forsaken look
and appears like a relict of the past.”
What is here true of Baltimore is, to
great extent, true of nearly every Allan
tic port. Under the present tariff, the
importation of grocery grades is entirely
forbidden, and only refining sugars are
permitted to enter the country. In this
way, everything like fair competition in
the sugar trade is denied to all our mer
chants. The refiners of New York and
Philadelphia are given a monopoly of the
business, and not only are the
people of the whole country forced to
pay tribute to these Northern sugar kings,
but all our porta are deprived of what
would be a most valuable item of an im
port trade. As we remarked a few days
since, this is a subject of specially great
importance to Savannah at this time.
The recent combination with the
Louisville and Nashville Rail
road was formed with the ob
ject mainly of making this city
the chief South Atlantic outlet for
large share "of the produce of the great
West. Unless, however, we can receive
cargoes from abroad in return for those
we Eend out, we can never rise to that
point of commercial importance to which
through our natural advantages and
position as the first South Atlantic port,
we are entitled. With Mr. Carlisle's bill
a law. Savannah can once more, as
she did years ago, import sugars from
South America and the West Indies for
distrihu ion In the West, and both our
ship and railway lines would enjoy the
benefits of a commerce double that
which can possibly exist under present
circumstances. In other words, wc would
then do a large business iu imports as
well as exports, whereas now wb are es
sentially only an exporting port.
This is a subject of so much impor
tance to the whole conntry that it de
mands tbe active attention of all South
ern and Western members of Congress.
The Baltimore American discussing the
matter says:
"The Frye-Carlisle bill at least strikes
down the inordinate discrimination
the present tariff in favor of a clique of
refiners, and allows other branches of
the sugar trade a chance. The adoption
of this bill would be legislation in the
popular behalf, not alone for Baltimore
but for the millions in the We-t
Northwest and Southwest who were
enabled, through the processes of
competition, to obtain good,
cheap and pure sugars, liefore
a half dozen New York refining
houses got very nearly the whole busi
ness into their hands. Baltimore is not
fighting her own battle merely; she is
representing the cause of the shipping in
terests of Norfolk. Richmond, Charles
ton, Savannah and Mobile, and also the
jobbing trade of Chicago, Cincinnati, St.
Louis, and all the other inland cities and
towns where sugar is handled for con
sump ion. That reciprocity of trade
which conduces to general busi
ness prosperity is allied with the
tariff reform plans, for if they
are successfully carried through, adis
tribution of the volume of grocery busi
ness and the renewal of trade between
our Southern ports and those of the
West Indies and South America will in
evitably follow. Keen as business ri
valry in everything now is. a market
must be thoroughly equipped with every
thing that buyers can demand, and when
it fails to furnish one leading article they
will not only go elsewhere for it, but
they will also go there for other pur
chases.”
Congress has adopted a resolution to
adjourn on the 31st inst, and, as yet
that determination has not been recon
sidered. The Honse Ways and Means
Committee, organized as it is largely in
the interests of the refining monopolists
of New York, have, with the aid of the
vote of Mr. Felton, of this State,.so
far prevented this bill of Mr.
Carlisle's from being reported to the
House. For the sake of the trade
of the entire country, and for the benefit
of the millions of consumers in tbe land
now forced to purchase cheap adulters
tions of glucose, etc., called sugars, from
the Northern monopolists, we trust
the National Legislature will lake up the
subject at once, and not by permitted to
adjourn until this and Similar questions
of tariff reforms so generally demanded
by tbe country, be disposed of.

Texas Pacific Railroad Rumors.
The Washington Star says a sensation
was created Monday morning at the
meeting of the House Committee on Pa
cific Railroads by a statement made of
Chairman MeLane to the effect that he
had received a letter stating that bonds
of the Northern Pacific Railroad Gom
pany had been distributed “where they
would do the most good.” It is said the
letter implicated not only members of
the Pacific Railroad Committee, but sev
eral members of the House as welL The
letter will be laid before the committee
at today's meeting.
Alluding to this matter, the Washing
ton correspondent of the Baltimore Sun
says; "The letter, after being read by
Sir. MeLane, was again scaled up and
will not he opened until it is laid before
the committee. The charges contained
in it are of a general Dature entirely, and
there is no mention of individuals or
amounts. The writer is said to be em
ployed in the census bureau, and he was
in the employ of tbe Huntington lobby,
if he is not now. His letter is consid
ered as indicating a desire on his part to
be summoned before the committee: It
is understood that not much importance
is attached to his statement, although, so
far a* that is concerned, it has never
been doubted here that some of the
ways by which the Texas Pacific charter
was obtained, were decidedly crooked. ’
It turns out that George Eliot has not
married after all, but that the lady who
did marry Mr. Cross was the legal wife
of the late George Henry Lewes. It is
in order now for these individuals who
berated the distinguished novelist for
her apparent fickleness to feel rather
small.
The La* Governing the Right
B u ’*1al in Cemeteries.
The Supreme Court of New York de
cided on Friday in the case of Dennis
Coppers a question of interest to all per
sons having lots in cemeteries belonging
to religion* denominations. The pivot
on which the case turned was whether
the managers of a cemetery have a legal
right to refuse burial to a person who
had bought and paid for a lot in it. Den
nis Coppers bought a lot in Calvary Ceme
tery. He was educated in the Catholic be
lief, and the cemetery was one in. which
members of the Catholic Church had the
exclusive right of burial. But Dennis
Coppers was a Freemason, and as the
rules governing the cemetery prohibited
the burial of Freemasons within its lim
its, the church authorities refused to
allow his remains to be interred by the
side of those of his wife and children.
The Supreme Court—all the Judges con
curring—decided that m all such cases
any one who buys a lot in a cemetery
controlled by any religious denomina
tion takes it subject to its rules and regu
lations. On this point the court said;
"It is in evidence, without dispute,
that under the rules and usages applica
hie to the cemetery in question the buri
al of non-Catholics or Freemasons is for
bidden and that such right is reserved
exclusively for Roman Catholics dying in
communion with the church. It also
appears that the cemetery was duly con
secrated by appropriate rites and cere
monies; that the trustee- are mem
bers of the church, spiri.ually subject to
its laws, usages and discipline, and
in substance that the business
affairs of the cemetery were and are
being conducted in good faith by these
trustees to give effect to such laws,
usages and discipline. In tbe absence of
any special contract excluding this status
by the omission of restrictions in a for
mal deed or agreement, the presumption
is a just and reasonable one. that such
status was a part of the transaction, and
that the laws and usages to which we
referred were understood by both parties
as lying at the very root of the negotia
tion and pervading it throughout.”
The scope of this decision is not
special, but general. It applies to all
cemeteries founded by religions bodies,
and even by inference to those that are
secular. Whosoever buys a lot in any
one of them buys it subject to the rules
and usages of the particular church, and
to regulations governing burials in secu
lar cemeteries. It was contended in the
Coppers case that the receipt for the
purchase money should be treated
as a deed in fee, but the court
held that "it is only when
formal conveyances are made expressly
granting the fee simple of an estate in
land for the purpose of sepulture that
an intention to sell and dispose of the
land will he admitted;” that a mere re
ceipt for money paid conveys no title to
the land
tween the parties; it simply gives the
payer a position analogous to that of a
pewho'der iu a house of public worship.
The association still remains the owner
in genera], and holds that relation to the
public and to the government.
The San Domingo Scandal.
The revival of the San Domingo scan
dal in the Senate tbe ether day is seized
upon with avidity by various Republican
organs of the anti-third term persuasion
as furnishing an excuse for telling tbe
scandalous story over again. Mr. Hatch’s
petition, it will be remembered, was pre
sen ted by Senator Eaton, much to the
disgust of Senator Conkling, the points
of it being that Hatch was outrageous, r
abused, sentenced to banishment from
the island and afterwards kept five
months in prison by the Babcock gang, to
the great damage of certain interests and
privileges which he held in San Domingo
under contract with the government.
Hatch was never able to obtain any redress
from a Republican Congress, simply be
cause the Grant administration and the
Babcock business sustained too intimate
relations to permit a substantiation of
the charges made; and now, when he
comes up with his petition again in the
hope of obtaining justice at last, he
confronted with the same evil genius
that ruled him out of the capital in the
first place. The narrative that Hatch
recites of his persecution and imprison
ment is of considerable interest, and, for
the benefit of those who have forgotten
the circumstances, will doubtless be re
told with embellishments by the anti-
Grant newspapers and filed for reference
in the literary bureaus of Sherman
Blaine & Co.
A Cheerful View of the South.
The Rev. Dr. W. F. Hatfield delivered
a lecture in Washington Square M
Church, New York, Sunday evening, on
his recent visit to the South, and his im
pressions of the country and its people.
He says that nowhere in his travels has
he ever met with such genuine courtesy
and hearty hospitality as that which
characterized his reception in the South,
and he advises heads of families and
young men who cannot make a Jiving
North to go South and buy a farm, as
suring them that if they mind their own
business, devote themselves to developing
the industry of the country, refrain from
boasting of having thrashed the South
erners, and from thrusting into un
due prominence the unsavory truth
that a negro is the equal of a white
man, they will be heartily welcome
The progress made in the education of
the people, Mr. Hatfield said, was re
markable, and in Richmond, Va., the
building set apart for the colored chil
dren is as fine as any school house in
New York city. The South, to his per
sonal knowledge, is doing all in its
power to lift up the colored men to the
rank of intelligent, useful and moral
citizens, and he found the colored people
it is not even a contract be- industrious, happy aud contented, and
not striving for higher wages or shorter
hours. Many of them own farms in
Georgia and Virginia, work them with
zeal and are encouraged by their old
masters.
The Sugar Business ia a Nutshell.
Even if Congress should adjourn on
the 3lst, there is no reason why it should
neglect to remodel the sugar schedule.
It has been ’two years and a half ago
since the Secretary of the Treasury
officially said that a change in the mode
of collecting duties on sugar was im
perative, and he ba« twice repeated the
declaration. He has taken the matter in
his own hands, and collected the duty iu
a way not provided by law, and in de
fiance of the protests of the trade, in
volving the department in a great
Dumber of law suits. Seven eighths
of the importers and refiners in the
country have memorialized Congress in
favor of simplifying the law, in order to
relieve them and the trade, which is now
hampered and embarrassed to the last
degree. Will Congress refuse to graDt
this relief ? The subject has been care
fully and thoroughly investigated. It is
understood in Congress and out of it.
Nothing stands in the way of immediate
action but a strong, almost in
dividual interest, seeking to re
tain what is practically a monopo
ly, to the injury of the revenue,
and the serious obstruction of the
convenience aDd comfort of the whole
country. Congress can dispose of the
matter in a very few hours if it is willing
to act. The merchants, refiners and con
sumers of the country have a right to de
mand that it should act. and, as the New
York Herald says: "The treasury has a
right to demand it, and that its officers
be not left in the awkward predicament
of devising extra-legal means to carry
out imperfect laws at the exp r.se of a
perpetual legal conflict with the mer
chants, who pay one-third the customs
revenue, and at the risk of gross injustice
to that large section of the mercantile
community."—Baltimore Sun.
The postponement of the hearing of
the Jesup injunction case to the 15th of
June is in some respects unfortunate.
At points where the Savannah. Florida
and Western Railway comes in competi
tion with the Brunswick and Albany
Road, the managers of the former line
have reduced its rates from 30
to 60 per centum below the rates
prescribed by the Commission
which arc in operation on the Bruns
wick and, Albany Road. It would ap
pear from this that tbe opposition of the
Savannah, Florida and Western Railway
to the schedule of the Commission is a
farce. What that road wants is the
right to discriminate, and the people are
not in favor of discriminations.—Atlanta
Constitution.
We do not for a moment suppose that
our esteemed contemporary, the Atlanta
Constitution, would willingly make a
misstatement of facts to the prejudice of
the Savannah, Florida and Western
Railway, which it seems to regard iu the
light of a most ruthless and “rapacious'
monopoly, seeking not only to rob the
people of their substance, but actually
to subvert the State government
Neve:thi-less, it is manifest that
in its extraordinary zeal in
behalf of “the people against the
railroads,” it is not only led into utterly
untenable positions, but into very grave
errors of fact In proof of which it is
only necessary that we should say that
we have the very best authority for
stating that no such "discrimination, no
such change or reduction of rates" as is
charged in the above paragraph has
been made by the management of the
Savann h, Florida and Western Rail
way. We foel confident that the Con
stitution will retract its statement when
we assure it upon unquestionable au
thority it is entirely erroneous.
Lief, the Norseman. •
The statue business is becoming the
rage of the age, and is reaching far back
into the past for subjects for commemo
ration. Boston believes in statues, in
spite of Wendell Phillips’ derision of
many of the granite and marble figures
that adorn its parks and avrnues, and
proposes a bronze image of Lief, son of
Eric, the Norseman, who is presumed to
have visited the New England coast in
the tenth century, five hundred years be
fore Columbus made his great discovery
and seven hundred years before the Pil
grims disembarked at Plymouth,
number of wealthy and liberal citizens,
with Mr. Nathan Appleton at their head,
have taken the matter in hand and
contributed $5,000 for a statue to the
daring navigator. J. Q. A. Ward, of
New York, is the artist chosen to do the
work. The model presented by him is
that of a rugged man of Norse "face and
garb, standing with one foot advanced
and with eyes looking intently upon the
strange land just lifting itself before his
vision. The left hand grasps a spear,
and the right hangs easily at his side.
The garb consists of a closely fitting
tunic of mail, with a cloak falling from
one shoulder, rawhide boots and a metal
helmet. The work will cost $10,000,
and the pedestal, which is to be of sculp
tured granite, $5,000 more. The place
selected for it is the post office square, in
the heart of the city, and surrounded by
some of the stateliest buildings.
The fact that Sherman and Blaine have
lately sojourned several days at the same
hotel in New York, has occasioned a
conjecture that they have formed a coali
tion. The conjecture may prove correct.
Certainly, snch a combination could dic
tate the nominations at Chicago. But
there is “ bad blood ” between these two
men. It is contrary to the etiquette of
politics for one Presidential aspirant to
enter another candidate's State and en
deavor to capture its delegation. Yet
this is what Mr. Blaine, in the supreme
selfishness of his ambition, did. His
emissaries made a hard fight in Ohio, and
but for Sherman's hasty trip home and
his appeal, accompanied by a threat, pre
vented the capture of the delegation by
the Maine Senator. Still, it i9 possible
that this breach has been healed, though
hardly probable.
The river and harbor bill before the
present Congress appropriates $8,500,-
000, and is the largest appropriation of
this kind ever asked for.
The Radical Figures.
Don Cameron at last unwillingly ad
mits that there is a defection among the
Pennsylvania delegates, but says that
not more than six” of them will refuse
to obey instructions—possibly eight—not
another crow, on any consideration. He
privately exhibits, to a few of the faith
ful, the slate as he and Conkling have
made it up without waiting for Illinois,
Minnesota and Dakota to choose their
delegates. As the figures come from
what are irreverently called the "head
mugwumps” of the Grant party, we give
them as a passing matter of interest.
Here thev are:
Grant on the first ballot 411
or 32 more than the number necessary
for a choice.
Meantime the newspapers go on pub
lishing their tables of “reliable” figures
just as vehemently as ever. Here are

Touching the Presidential question, re
marks the Baltimore Gaiette, it is pleas
ant to note the overwhelming feeling in
the Democratic ranks in favor ot a
Democratic nominee who can and will
unite the entire Democratic party of the
country. Without the solid Democratic
vote the nominee of the Cincinnati Con
vention will not have the ghost of a
chance of an election. It makes no dif
ference what may be at the bottom of
the disaffection evinced toward any par
ticular individual If any such exist, he
should not be chosen, for his nomination
would be like the Dead Sea's fruit—dust
and ashes to the lips! It is well to look
the matter squarely in the face at Cin
cinnati.
We were favored yesterday with a call
from our immediate Representative in
Congress, Hon. John C. Nicholls, who,
after a brief visit to his home in Black-
shear. was on his way to Washington.
We understand that Colonel Nicholls
will be a candidate for renomina-
tion to the position which he has filled
with so much credit to himself and
benefit to his section and the country at
large, and that, if unsuccessful in the
nominating convention, he will, as he
has always dene, give his cordial support
to whoever may be the nominee of the De
mocracy of the First Congressional Dis
trict. Tbe Colonel is in fine health, and
after a brief rest, returns to his post with
renewed vigor.
General Johnson Hagood is a candi
date for the Democratic nomination for
Governor of South Carolina, and the
election of delegates so far indicate that
he will be nominated, although General
M. W. Gary is pushing his claims for
the honor.

That Great Wrong.
Editor Homing News: That a great
wrong was done to the Democratic party
in 1876 is undeniable; and the friends of
Mr. Tilden claim that it can only be
cured by renominating him at Cincinnati
for the Presidency. Before adopting
their proposed remedy let us look into
the nature and extent of the injury done.
In a convention, coiled at St. Louis to
represent the views of the Democratic
party, but which proved to be, in reality,
the purchased private property, largely,of
Mr. Tilden, his "Ring” Disced him at
the head of the ticket as per bill of
sale. The Democrats did not like
the trade, but were too loyal to
go back on their delegates, and
accepted and elected Mr. Tilden. But
he had not the nerve when tried, and
weakly permitted Democratic success to
slip from his nerveless grasp. Tbe
Democratic party was undoubtedly
wronged. But by whom? The Radi
cals, or Mr. Tilden? The Radicals
played their game boldly, and "bluffed
Mr. Tilden "had not the backbone, and
ran,” abandoning the stakes put up for
him at his own request. And yet kis
friends ask us to back him again!
Now. who did the great wrong to the
Democratic party—the Radicals or Mr.
Tilden? They played their hand, and Mr.
Tilden betrayed ours! He sought our
trust, got it, and delivered us over into
the power of the enemy. And now has
the cheek to insist ’ that we shall
trust him again! Metbinks I hear the
Democratic parly in swelling chorus re
ply:
“Oh, No! Not for Joe!
Not for Joseph!
Ob. No, No!*’
Mr. Tilden wronged us first and then
himself, and us again: and to-day claimB
reward for the injuries he inflicted upon
himself and the damage he did to us!

Louisville.
Caere la
Louisville Post and yeses. Monday.
It is some time since a case of hydro
phobia has occurred in this city, but to
day we have to chronicle two peculiarly
horrible cases of this most dreadful dis
ease. The persons afflicted are Preston
Forman, a negro plasterer, living on
Sixteenth and Harney streets in Califor

An Interesting Legal Decision.—
Judge Bacon, of the Superior Court, has
just rendered an important decision for
travelers in declaring that a corporation,
having agreed to carry a passenger over
a through route at a reduced rate, less
than that asked for transport to some in
termediate station, has no right to pre
vent that passenger from stopping at
such intermediate point till he has paid
additional fare. The particular case was
that of Ward McAllister, a Harvard law
student, who bought a ticket from Bos
ton to New York by the Oid Colony
line, and on attempting to go ashore at
Newport was detained by an officer of
the company till he had paid sixty cents
additional. Judge Bacon says the colt
pany may demand the difference in fare
between the local and the through rate,
and if payment is refused may recover
the same in a civil action, but have no
other remedy. His Honor also held that
a passenger leaving the boat on this dol
lar ticket would be a trespasser on the
gang plank and wharf of the steamboat
company.—Springfield (Hass.) Union.
Six black envoys have arrived in Lon
don from Mtesa, monarch of a wide re
gion in the dark continent of which Stan
ley Africanus has so much to say in his
book. Thev come with the King's com
pliments to Queen Victoria, requesting
her to express through her envoy her de
sire as to the status of missionaries in his
kingdom. They had also orders to,re
quest a supply of rum and rifles, and, as
an inducement to their request being
granted, to announce their master’s wish
to embrace the Christian religion, pro

healed. Three days
’ellow began to exhibit
strange symptoms of sickness, which
gave his parents much alarm. Since
that time he has constantly grown much
worse, until now he is suffering from
what is thought to be a genuine case of
hydrophobia. The child froths at the
mouth, snaps and snarls like a dog, at
times is seized with agonizing spasms,
and exhibits other symptoms of rabies.
The child’s father, Preston Forman,
has a family consisting of a wife and four
children. lie is a plasterer by trade,
and is a large, powerful negro, weighing
about two hundred pounds. He has
been attending to his child during its
sickness, and it is supposed that the boy
must have bitten him, or else it is im
possible to account for his singular and
sudden affliction.
Up to to-day, Forman has shown no
symptoms of madness. This morning,
he complained of feeling badly, and soon
began to act strangely. It was not long
before he began to rave like a maniac,
and to show signs of rabies. He began
to froth at the mouth, howl and snap
like a dog, and tried to bite whoever
came near him. About 9 o'clock this
morning he went out upon the street,
where his appearance created a perfect
panic. He was terribly violent, and
threatened every one whom he saw. For
tunately he did not succeed iu seriously
injuring anybody. One negro man he
struck on the head and knocked down,
but the man was not badly hurt. People
living in the neighborhood were terribly
scared at the violent behavior of the
madman. A policeman was sought for,
and officer J. P. McWhorter soon ar
rived on the scene.
He gave chase to the maniac, who ran
away from him, but caught him at tbe
corner of Sixteenth and Prentice. Now
began a terrific struggle, for tbe Degro
resisted with almost superhuman
strength. The policeman called others
to his assistance, and with the help of
four negroes Forman was finally secured
and bound about the hands and feet. A
wagon was procured and the madman
placed within. Officer McWhorter, ac
companied by one negro man, started off
with him to jail.
Even tied as he was, the negro contin
ued to resist. He would bite at those
holding him, strive to burst his bonds,
until sometimes it seemed as if he would
get the best of his captors.
Policeman McWhorter is one ot the
largest and strongest men on the force,
but Forman was even larger than he, and,
besides, had all the added strength which
a man has in the violence of madness.
The policeman had to sieze the negro by
the neck to prevent being bitten. Every
time tbe latter would make an effort to
snap, McWhorter would have to choke
him with both hands before he would
desist.
Ail this time Forman was foaming at
the mouth aDd presenting a most horri
ble appearance. He would scream and
ell, then bark and snarl like a dog. He
ept calling out, "I didn't do it! I didn’t
do it! and would beseech his captors to
"stop smothering him. ”
In this pitiable plight the poor fellow
was brought to the jail about 11 o'clock
this morning. Here another hard strug-
5 Ie ensued in getting him into the cell.
IcWhorter called officer McAuliffe to
his assistance, as well as the turnkey and
several bystanders. Forman was forced
to walk into jail with five or six men
holding him. In going through a nar
row passage in the hall where there was
not room for the whole party to
walk, the mad man with a desperate
effort, although h is hands were stil 1 fasten
ed, broke away from all those who held
The Flushing Journal speaks of Bay
ard’s "personal dbigne’.ism. ’’ We do
not like the term since it became the
custom to use it to describe the fawning
and caressing by which Blaine binds
weak men to him, and hold* to him as
by hooks of steel men strong in intellect
and weak in principle whose guiding
principle in politics is that gratitude
which has been described as a lively
sense of favors yet to come. We sup
pose It is a part of vrtrat-is called Blaine’s
personal magnetism to fairly crawl in
private over the "Southern Brigadiers’
he abuses so bitterly in public, uniil one
would suppose he was rehearsing the
preliminaries of an imitation of the
Abbot kiss.
If any one imagines there is any of
this sort of "personal magnetism” about
Senator Bayard he is very much mis
taken. If by personal magnetism is,
however, meant that innate kindliness
and quick sympathy which finds expres
sion in the most genial manner toward
friends and acquaintances, and that ad
herence in the privacy of unrestrained
social intercourse to the high sense of
honor manifested in public, which binds
all generous natures brought in contact
with him closely to the man, then Mr.
Bayard has “personal magnetism" in a
large degree; but, like real magnet
ism, it has a repellent as well as an
attractive force, and drives off intrigue
and selfishness, while corruption cannot
come into the remoter circles of its
influence.
About Salad.—What is a good salad?
A London editor insists that it should
not be too miscellaneous. "In sim
plicity lies perfection. The endive and
beetroot, fresh beau and potato, radish
and mustard and cress, asparagus and
celery, cabbage-hearts and parsley, and
all the other ingredients that in this
salad or in that find a place are, no doubt,
well enough in their way, but the greatest
men of modern times have agreed in
saying that, given three vegetables and
a master mind, a perfect salad may be
the result But for the making there
requires to be present a miser to dole out
the vinegar, a spendthrift to sluice on
the oil. a sage to apportion the salt, and
a maniac to stir. The household that can
produce these four, and has at command
a firm, stout hearted lettuce, a delicate
spring onion and a handful of cress,
need ask help from none and envy none,
for in the consumption of the salad thus
ambroeialiy resulting all earth's cares
may be for the while forgot, and the
consumer snap his fingers at the
boroughs, whether they go right or
wrong.”
There is one instance on record—and
only one—of a usurer repenting during
his last illness, and, moved by the ex
hortations of his priestly confessor,
promising to restore the immense sums
of money which he had unjustly acquir
ed. His daughters, however, heartless
as the charming Jessica, daughter
Shylock, begged trim to do nothing
tbe kind. In vain the poor man pleaded
that in case of his not making restitution
eternal torments awaited him. "Never
mind, papa,” said the young ladies; "tbe
first quarter of an hour will be painful,
no doubt; but you have plenty of char
acter, and after a little time will get
used to it”

An Organ Grinder Kills His
Child.—Chas. Gardella, an Italian or
gan grinder, has been arrested at Ashley
near Wilkesbarre, Pa , charged by his
ten-year-old daughter with having shot
and killed another daughter, five years
old, about two years ago. Detectives
will go with the girl to the spot
where the body is said to be buried. At
the hearing Gardella threatened to kill
the girl if she testified. He was sent to
jail.

We wonder poor Mr. South worth, the
Boston expert, was so excited when he
became convinced of Cadet Whittaker’s
guilt that he had to take to his bed. He
is, it appears, an "oid organization
Abolitionist,” and preferred to suspect
three hundred young white men of a
peculiarly atrocious crime rather than
accept the theory that Whittaker could
have mutilated himself. The evidence,
however, was too strong for him, and he
was forced lo beiteve his own eyes, even
to the prejudice of his life-long th orles.
His testimony, however, is all the more
valuable ou this account.

No Free Passes to the Conven
tions.—It is announced that under an
arrangement made between the trunk
lines, the Pennsylvania Railroad will
issue no free passes to tbe National Con
ventions to be held in June next at Chi
cago and Cincinnati. Round trip excur
sion tickets will be issued at reduced
rates from the Eastern citiee and from
prominent interior points to both con
ventions.
The New York Star says Whittaker
has mangled his ears without reaping
any lasting benefit from the operation.
The wounds thus inflicted are all he is
ever likely to receive in Uncle Sam’s ser
vice; and while sorry for the fellow’s
blasted career, everybody must be glad
to know that the Military Academy is
relieved from the stigma which this
outrage”—if it were an outrage—would
involve.
Memphis Waking Up.—Recognizing
the necessity of facilities for the better
and cheaper handling of cotton in Mem
phis, Venn., local capitalists have organ
ized a company and secured a charter for
the construction of a mammoth cotton
warehouse and compress, to be located
co veniently to the transportation lines,
where cotton can be prepared for ship-
ment with less expense than is at present
poesible.
Women in Afghanistan.
Calcutta Pioneer.
The dress of Afghan women, especially I
those whose husbands have rank or .
wealth, is extremely picturesque. A |
short, tightly fitting bodice of green,
blue, or crimson silk, confines the bust,
but buttons so closely up to the throat |
that one can only guess at the propor
tions of shoulders and bosom. The
bodice is generally embroidered with
gold, and then becomes so stiff and un
yielding that it is virtually a corset. In
cold weather, the short arm9 of the
sari are continued down to the wrist,
and the vest itself is padded with wool,
for the sake of warmth. Trousers a la |
Turc, baggy and flowing as Fatima’s,
and tightly fastened at tbe ankles; a j
broad silk kummerbund of almost end
less length, with the ends so disposed
that they become skirts; dainty white
socks, and a tiny slipper or shoe, gold
embroidered—such is the indoor dress
of a Cabulese lady, while covering and
hiding all save feet and ankles, is the
voluminous white garments drawn over
the head and face, and falling to the
heels. These veiled beauties have jew
elry scattered over their forehead, hands,
wrists, arms and ears ; while handsome
gold loops secure the yashmak at the
back of tbe head; the hair being lightly
drawn from the forehead, and tied
tightly into a knot — Grecian fashion.
The length of a silk kummerbund, which
circles a lady’s waist, is sometimes as
tonishing—one I saw must have been
twelve yards long, by eighteen inches ]
broad, and the end was even then not |
forthcoming.
The slippers and shoes are of Cabulese
make, and are very pretty. On a pale
green background beautiful patterns are
worked with gold and silver thread and
particolored silk, until the effect is
more like that of a fairy slipper than
one for daily use. But a stout leather
sole is put on, with high heels rudely
bound with iron, and then the work of
art is complete. Tbe stalls in which
their slippers and shoes are made are j
the gayest in the whole bazaar. A
Cabule-e lady's foot is small almost to
deformity, and the baggy trousers, by
contrast, make them appear exceedingly
petite.

[prettiest I have ever seen. Their com
plexions are red and white, with a tinge
of olive pervading the skin, eyes black
and lustrous, well shaped features, teeth
to make a Western beauty envious,
and bright, intelligent looks" that sadly
belie the race to which they belong.
Their mothers must be beautiful, for
their fathers are generally villainous
looking, the men losing all the pleasing
traits which as boys they possessed.
The lady I have described, as seen in the
zenana for a moment, was certainly
handsome and was far lighter in com
plexion than a Spaniard, her eyes were
really worthy of the praises sung by
Hafiz, but the sensuons lips were a little
too full and pouting. It was just such a
face as one imagines in a harem, and
would be in keeping with the languor
ous life of a voluptuary to whom sensu
ality is a guiding star. Such faces al
ways lack character, and would soon
prove insipid in tbe eyes of the West.

work cage covered with the inevitable
flowing linen, or rides, Amazon fashion,
on a pony behind her lord.
