The Athens Banner is of the opinion that
the “long-haired Southerners” are always
welcome when they make lou^ bills with the
Northern people.
Parents eansot be too careful about watch
ing their children during the season when fires
arc necessary in a house. We see by the Co
lumbus Timet that a day or two ago, a little
son of Mr. William Cooper, of that city, made
a very narrow escape from a terrible death.
The li'tle fellow was pitying near the fire,
when his clothes caught. He was running
through the house cry ing.when fortunately the
cook noticed his condition and extinguished
the flauies. The child had one of his hands
burned.
On Friday night Mr. Rawlins, ltailiff in Eto
wah district, Floyd county, went to the house
of a Mr. Patterson to arret-t him for the offense
of carrying concealed weapons. The Home
Tribune says that as soon as Mr. Patterson
saw who it was he drew his pistol and ahot,
uii-sing his mark, and Mr. Kavriins drew his
and fired twice, but did not shoot at Mr. P. on
account of h<« wife, who was clinging to him.
No one was struck by ihe balls and Mr. Patter
son made his esc »pe. This is the secoad lime
tli' officp"s have been after him. and both
times he escaped from them by taking to hi9
heels
A correspondent of the Toccoa Newt writes
that pajier from Aerial. Habersham county,
that the Mormons have invaded that county,
and on last Monday night two of them had it
announced that they would p ea ;h at a pri
vate houie two miles from that place. The
people of that section, however, do not be
lieve in Mormon doctrine, and they were not
allowed to go on with their discourse. The
meeting broke up in a row. and had it not been
for interference, no doubt there would have
been a serious time with the Mormons. After
a while the difficulty quieted down and no one
was hurt, but the polygamists were s > terri
bly frightened that they will hardly venture to
preach in that neighborhood again scon.
The quiet of Sundiy morning of last week in
the town of Eiberton was ruJely disturbed by
what threatened to become a serious riot.
From the Gazette we learn that au idiotic
negro boy was on the street drunk. A brother
of the boy approached him and tried to take
him home. He resisted, and the two began
fighting, when the Town Marshal came up and
proceeded to arrest the drunken boy. Itnme
dlately several negroes rushed to the scene and
took the boy’s part, one of them, a female, be
ing vtfi-y in-iiltiug to the Marshal and using
obscene language. Other negroes then joined
in and attempted to excite a riot.and they would
have doue so but for the nerve of the Mar
shal, who kmcked down several of the rioters
and arrested four of the ringleaders, who were
promptly jailed. The turbulent darkies then
caine to their senses, and realizing that discre
tion was the better part of valor, quieted down
aod dispersed.
on last Sunday week a difficulty occurred
between two young men at Thom as ton, Upson
county, in which the lie passed. Pistols were
drawn and two sh »ts fired, one bail misting
everybody and the other pasting through the
pants legs of a bystander. Friends then rush
ed in, and the matter was amicably adjusted.
Jack Thra-her. colored, was arrested and
put in jail in Madison last Wednesday for kid
napping Mary Croft, colored. The Madisonian
learns that Jack lias two or three wives, but,
not satisfied with this, he invaded old man
Croft's domicile and kidnapped his daughter.
It thinks he should, a soon as relieved from
his present embarrassing condit on, emigrate
to Utah, where he can enjoy his predilections
without let o r hindrance.
The Quitman Free Press says: “The negro,
Luke McCormack, who killed another colored
man on Mr. Win. Golding's place several
months since, was captured on the the night of
the l-uh iDst by parries in Mr. Go ding's em
ployment. and is now in jail here These gen
tlemen will doubrless get the reward of one
hundred dollars offered by the Governor."
MacYiUe South Georgian : “We are inform*
el that the old crazy negro woman. Amanda
.McMillan, is out la the woods, near town, in a
little shanty, and in very destitute circum
stances. As she is an imbecile, unable to
work, and in no condition to work if she could,
will net the prop-r authorities see that she
does n<>t >iarve to death, as she i« in a fair
way of doing at this wri ing. She also has
with her two little children, too small to work,
who are almost entirely naked.”
Athens Banner; “There is some talk obout
establishing a branch luuatU asylum at Gaines
ville or t-ome other point in North Georgia.
There is no necessity for that T he present
asylum ought to be enlarged either bv addition
to the present building or by the erection of
new one. There are many advantages in hav
ing the entire bo •> of lunatics under one man
agement, and th re are many disadvantages
and much unnecessary exj»euse in the other
course. We hope the Legislature will not es
tablish another asylum.**
The Madison Madisonian acknowledges the
receipt < f a blank petition from Gen. Wof-
ITord asking the legislature to repeal the
present chain gang system aod ad pt
some other more in acc^rl with hu
manity says that paper: * IVe indorse
it with a'l our heart. But how can the pres
ent system he changed until the time of lease
expires, without interfering with vested rights
is a question that bothers us. We have ever
been aga n*t the preseot system. We liked the
<»ld penitentiary system, and although often a
burthen to the biat^, it should have been kept
in existence ” ^
Alluding to the Oothcaloga Valley, the Rome
Tribune says: “1 his beautiful valley extends
from Calhoun, (Jordon county, t * AdairsviHe, a
distance of ten mi es. Oothcaloga creet ex
tends the full length of the vailey. emptying
into the Oo-tanauia river near Calhoun. The
'alley lauds are exeeedirgly fertile, yielding
abundant cro: s of corn, wheat and grass**.
Cotton is raised to a considerable extent,
though the soil is more especially adapted to
cereals a- d stock raising. The soil is deep,
with clay foundation. The surface isgenerairy
level to gently undulating. The lands are well
improved s ciety good, with ample school and
church facilities. Ihe famous Peters’ stock
farm issiiuited in the valley, two miles from
Calhoun The W. & A. R. li. divides the valley
throughout.”
On the subject of “absent-mindedness.” the
Va-T - a limes says: “Two weeks ago we
spoke of a gentleman friend <4*onrg who rode
hi* hor-e to town, and forgetting ihat h** had
come in that wav. went back on foot. leaving
his burse hitcii*-d to the rack on a back street.
We thought It a remarkable c»se of absent-
minde<jn»-ss. but we have another case that
beats it about six to one. Mr. Jes Hardee, liv
ing in th * Clvattville district, iu this eounty.and
twflve miles from town, came in to court last.
Thursday, driving his mule in a buggy. When
court adjourned, he started lor home on foot,
being i m pressed that he was without® convey

The Cedar Key Journal complains that there
is such a scarcity of labor in that section
was never liefore known, and mill men and
others find it very difficult to supply th*lr
necessities. The reason for the tcarcity, how
ever. is that business of all kinds is flourish
ing. ana that the labor demand is greater than
the supply.
On Friday last a colored man named Abram
Jackson was arrested in Jacksonville on a re
quisition from Governor Colquitt, charged
with arson at Bainbridge, Ga. He was locked
up to await the arrival of officers from that
place. Since he has been in Jacksonville he
has led a sober, industrious lire, and has
been faithful to his employers.
The Monticeilo Constitution warns its readers

Captain J. H AJlen, owner and commander
of asteainer plying on the Kissimmee river.ar-
rived at Jacksonville a few days ago. Accord
ing to the Union, he returned from his last
trip from near the mouth of the river on ihe
9th instint, and reports the whole of that coon
try nrimmino. He says the river has the ap
l**arance of an immense crooked lake from
three to eight miles in width, with no end to it
He says he can run his ste&uier almost in a
straight line over prairies usually dry. making
his ruu iu two days, which, it he followed the
channel of the river, would require three and a
halfdays. The flood is as great as ever known
aud fully equals that of 1*172. Thousands cf
head of cattle have been drowned. He counted
twenty-tux at one time floating on a lake he
was passing and could see them huddled togeth

along the whole line of the river.

Deputy United States Marshals are carrying

One of these gentry arrested Marshal Holzeti
dorf, of Cedar Key, and took him to Jackson
ville for trial because he arrested one Griffin,
mail agent, for disturbing the peace of Cedar
Key a few nights ago. United States officials
in our sister State are, it seems, determined to

Young boys in Pensacola are reveling in the
possession of a dangerous toy io the shape of
a pocket pistol which shoots twenty-two ca
fibre brass cartridges. The weapons are sold
for only twenty-five cents apiece, and the Oa

shot himself with one of them through the

such accidents before the winter is over.
A powerful new engine was received las'
week from the Grant Railroad Works of Pat

The Key West Democrat is in favor of pull
ing down the old wooden buildings at the bar
racks in that city, and supplying their places
with brick hou-ea. It fears the old buildings
are full of the germs of yellow fever, aud to
l-*ave them standing is detrimental to the
health of the place.
Returns from the election on the Constitu
tional Convention question have at length been
received. The Gainesville Bee says: “All the
counties except Brevard, Dade and Monroe
have been lieArd from, which shows 14,326 votes
in favor of. and 22,354 against, a convention-
majority in the negative 8,028.
Key West Democrat: “Our spongers and
fishermen have nearly all put to sea since the
election. Most of them remain-d, as they pre
ferred losing several weeks of work rather
than their votes. Taking into consideration
the fact of most of them being men who could
ill afford to Jose the time consequent upon
such a delay, we can certainly honor the mo
tive that actuated them.”
Says the HamiltonUounty Times: “A negro
who gave his name as Ijiwrence Chestnut
(and who by tlie way m ght be called a light
chestnut clor), went into the establishment of
Mr. T. E Lanier this week and showed him a
handsome la ’y’a stem winder gola watch and
chain, which he said his father gave him. Mr.
L , thinking the story fishy, asked what the
watch c-jst f2», replied Chestuir, and the
chain 510. Mr. Lanier became satisfied that all
was not right. • uoaequentlv a merchant Jiere
bought the watch and chain for a small
amount, thus, we think, establishing the fact
that there is some one minus a handsome
watch and chain. Who is it! Do they live in
Florida!”
Mr. George Summerlin, writing to the Orlan

Gulf coast the people there have not been idle.
From January last up to the middle of October
we shipped to Cuba over twenty thousand head
of beef and sto k cattle, and if the trade con
linues brisk until the 1st of January next, or

we will have shipped ro that port 25,0U) head.
Put down at a sale estimate of ?12 per head,
u akes ihe round little sum of 5300,000. Now,
-ir, combine this with the other great export
trades of ihe btate, such as lumber, cotton,
sponge, live fish and hides, then aid to this the
great products of our fiuit and vegetable
farms.”
Tallahassee Patriot: “Last Thursday even
ing the Sheriff of Jackson county arrived nere
with another ii sane woman, to have her ad
judged a lunatic aud to ootain an order for her
admission into the asylum. This poor creature
is about sixty three years of age anl a native
of Scotland aud sajs she is the daughter of
Rev. R Lester, of Scotland. She first made
her appearance in Jackson county about seven
months ago, sajing she wav from Texas and
in search of some laud which she claimed t»
possess; employed Mr. McKinnon. a» attor
ney, to assist her in locating the
land and establishing the lega lty of
her claim. Having but little mo^ey it was
socn all gone, and her search for her alleged
claim wa- hardly commenced when signs < f a
tailing mind manifested itself, and a few weeks
since she became totally insane. She is truly
a pitiable object, and to see her and hear her
moans is enough to fad-'en the most callous
heart. She was taken to the asylum. Her
name is given as Mrs. Kemps.”
Tallahassee Floridian: ’ One day last week a
bright, wi .cawake young clerk iu < ue of our
principal grocery stores was waiting upon a
customer, and had wrapped up a package of
tobacco, which the customer laid on the coun
ter beside him while he looked at some other
goods. A Garfield voter stood by ** aiting his
turn, and presently the customer turned fo get
his tobacco but it had disappeared. The
clerk, knowing that no one else had been near,
iwmedi tely charged the G. V. with having
appropriated the tobacco, but it was in-
dignau ly denied. Not satisfied. Mr. Clerk ran
bis hand into the outside pocket of the G. V’s
coat, and drew forth the missing article. 1 he
ihic-f begged, but the clerk jauked him into
the back room and offered him his choice of
a paddling with a barrel stave or a visit to
W’yse’s camp, aud he wisely chose the former,
whereupon fie got it well laid on, and departed

“Mr. P. M. Wilds, living within four miles of
Port Henry, this county,” sa> s the Fernandina
Express, * informs us of a disastrous fire which
occurred on Saturday afternoon last, by which
ho lost all be possehsed. The fire swept away
Mr. Wilds’ dwelling bouse, a two-story buil '-
ing, and several adjoining outh mses. and left
him with only the clothes he was wearing at
the time. Tliere seems to be some mystery
connected with the coaflagra'ion, os Mr. Wilds
left home at about twelve o’clock, noon, tak
ing his usual precautions against fire, by seeing
that none was left burning on the premises.
There was no one in the house, and when he
returned late in the evening he fouud bis home
tmoking. smouldering ruin. His loss
is est mated at about 5LOOO, and is a severe
blow to Mr. Wilds, who is an industrious, ban-
working citizen If the fire was the work of an
iii--enotary, we trust that the offlceis of the law-
will succeed In ferreting out the culprit, and
that no mercy will be shown the detestable
criminal.”
Jacksonville Union: “Mr. W. R. White, a
most respectable citizen of Cedar Key. was
arrested in that town at 2 n m.. Friday, by
Deputy .Marsha) Fowler. The charge against
Mr White is that he, while serving as inspector
at the election of the 2d inst., refused to per
mit a negro to vote. It seems that the negro
in question had been twice convicted of lar
ceny. This fart was within the knowledge of
Mr White, who simply carried out the Mate
law on the subject. I seems to iu a very
harsh proceediug that a quiet citizen should
be compelled, on th* affidavit of a thief, to be
put to the inconvenience of traveling 250 miles
to answer such a charge. Mr. White gave
bond b-fore the Lomi i*sioner in the sum of
$500 for Ids appearance before the United
States Court, and was discharged, having
waived an examination. Dr. Mcllvain, of Ce
dar Key. an inspector at the same precinct,
has also been arre-ted on the same charge

are allowed to give evidence against honest
men, what man In this community is safe!”

the State Engineer to lay before tbe
board. Tbe facts upon which the protest
is based are that in the Eighth ward
of Oswego the Inspectors refused to can
vass one hundred and seventy Republican
ballots which were endorsed on the back
and on the top. The return was sent
back to them for correction, which they re
fused to make, and the county board of
canvassers rejected the entire return. Tbo
Attorney General decides that the State
board cannot supervise the action of the
board of county canvassers, but must ac
cept the regular returns as they are sent in.

Washington, November 22.—A case
Involving the legality of the -^Treasury
circular regarding the collection of the
duty on sugar showing an appa
rent color of over No. 7 and not over No. 10
Dutch standard in color, but testing over
ninety-seven degrees in crystal lizable
strength, was recently reached for trial on
tbe calendar of the United 8tates Circuit
Court in New York, but the trial on the
Dart of the government was waived, the
District Attorney giving assurances that the
claim would be paid. Jn view of this action
a prominent firm in New York has address
ed the Secretary of the Treasury, requesting
that present orders upon the snoject of
classifying sugars upon their crystaJlizible
strength instead of their apparent color be
revoked, and that claims for overpaid du
ties be refunded.
Tbe reply of the Treasury was: “In re
gard thereto, you are informed that this de
partment waited a trial of the case referred
to for the reason that the officers of the
government who examined the case prepar
atory to trial had doubts whether the sugars
had not been classified above their
true grade, the highest test by any
government experts^jiving 97 45 per cent,
involving a controversy of facts relating to
less than one half of one per cent, of crys
tallizable strength. The dismissal of the
salt is not to be interpreted as an abandon
ment by this department of the rule
ec*.ion prescribed in the circular referred
to, and this department will give its aid to
the speedy trial of a case involving the
issue iu which tbe facts shall be found suffi
ciently clear to justify such action.”

Great Activity and Iainienae Trans

money market.

New Yoke, November 23 —The stock
market was characterized by great activity,
and business was immense. Prices opened
at an advance of from % to 13^ per cent,
tbe latter in Chicago, Burlington and
Quincy, and subsequently rose from \ to
1^ per cent., Michigan Central and the
Granger shares aDd Western Union leading
the improvement.
About midday, a reaction of from to 1%|
per cent, took place, but during tbe after
noon speculation again became strong, and
a further advance of from Is to 2}£percent,
was recorded. In the late dealings sales to
realize profits caused a reaction of from \
to 1? j'per cent. The transactions aggrega
ted 610,0(10 shares.
The /Wi’a financial article says: “The week
opens in the money market with six per
cent, the rate for'call loans, exceptional
rates being five per cent. Time loans
are yet to be had at from 5^ to 6 per cent,
for short date, from 4 to 4)^ per cent, for
loans running by the second week in January.
Prime mercantile paper is from 4 to 6 per
cent. At the advanced rates there is, as the
saying is, ‘money enough to go around,'
although every advance in the price of 6tock
increases tbe amount which tbe Stock Ex

’Receipts and Expenditures of the
Government During the Past Fli
cal Year—The National Banks.
By Telegraph to the Morning News.
Washington, D. C., November 22.—U,
S. Treasurer Gllfillan, in his annual report,
shows that the receipts of the government
compare favorably with those of the previ
ous fiscal year, and that there has been an
increase of revenue from customs, internal
revenue and sales of public lands of $59,
811.505 78, and a decrease from miscellaneous
sources of only $112,079 26. The expendi
tares show an increase of $695,074 25 In tbe
aggregate as compared with the previous
year, caused by an increase of $22,395,040 06
in paj meats on account of the Interior De
partment, but show a decrease of $21,
G95 81 for interest and premium on the pub
lic debt, on civil and miscellaneous accounts
and for the War and Navy Departments.
In relation to the national banks, he says
tbe banks have availed themselves to a large
extent of the privilege accorded by the set
authorizing any national bank desiring to
withdraw its circulation of notes to take up
the bonds drposited for the security of
such notes upon a deposit of lawful money
with the Treasurer of the United States,
and providing that an equal amount of the
outstanding notes of the bank shall be re
deemed at the Treasury o* the United States
rhatmorethan $85,000,1)00of circulation has
been surrender! d in the manner prescribed,
and nearly $71,000,000 have been redeemed
at hi6 office. This provision was adopted in
expectation tba* it would act as a regulator
of the volume of bank clrculattou. It was
expected when the circulation became re
duDdant the surplus would be retired, and
when the demand for more circulation
should spring up the banks would
increase their issue to meet it. Thia
expectation has not been real
Ized. Tbe reduction has been
solely to enable tbe banks to avail them
selves of tbe ruling premium on bonds
withdrawn, either because the bonds were
exceptionally higher or because the banks
needed the premiums to enatde them to
meet losses sustained, or to reduce their
premium account.
It is plain the action of the banks would
not be affected by the fact that the volume
of circulation was redundant, for the slm
pie reason that the bank has more at its dls
posal after reducing its circulation than be
fore. The bank which deposits $45,000 to
reduce its circulation, and takes up $50,000
of its bonds, which it sells for 10 per ceDt.
premium, has $10,000 more to lend than be
fore. While, therefore, the retirement of
tne bank circulation diminishes the aggre
gate volume of circulation, it increases the
loanable funds of that particular bank
whose circulation i6 reduced.
On the same subject Mr. Gllfillan says,
although the exact amount canno r be ascer
tained, It is safe to say millions of additional
circulation have been issued through tbe
office of the Comptroller of the Currency to
the banks, which were still reducing tfieir
circulation through the office of the Treas
urer. The consequence has been that the
new notes Issued have, to a large extent,
speedily been presented to the Treasurer for
redemption out of the legal tender deposit.
Biuko which have applied in vain to the
Treasurer for a surrender of their lezal
tender deposits, have accomplished the
same object by obtaining a new
circulation from the Comptroller of
the Currency. The cost of printing tbe
new notes thus issued is paid for by tbe
United States, so that the government
though not deriving tbe remotest benefit
from the transaction, has been obliged to
bear the whole expense of their issue, and
a part of the expense of their redemption
simply to enable a bank to do by Indirection
what It was not permitted to do directly. In
several instances the banks have repeated
the operation of reducing and increasing
their circulation several times within
the brief period of taking up their bonds,
and selling them, it would appear, when
ever the premium constituted sufficient In
ducement, and increasing their circulation
again wheuever bonds could be bought at
better rates, the United States all the while
redeeming their notes at its own expense as
that of other banks, and issutng others, also
at its own expense,whenever called upon by
them.
AN OUTRAGE Lit NAILED.

New Orleans, November 22.—Hon. J.
Floyd King, Congressman from the Fifth
Louisiana district, to day wrote a letter to
the President in regard to the “outrage’
port of H. B. Lanier, in which he saysY[
Commissioner Kaum, on the report of
Mr. Lanier, appointed by him Inter
nal Revenue Collector In tbe Fifth
Congressional district when he
centiy became a candidite for Congress
bas ordered him to invade the district
with an armed force. There is perfect peac e
and quiet in the district, and there is no vio
lence nor a disposition to violate the laws or
rights of any one. Mr. Lanier no more
needs United States troops than does Mr.
Raum in the Treasury, or than 1 do when
attending the sessions of Congress. Mr.
Lanier is short in his accounts in s
large amount as State Tax Collec
tor, and has more than once been
engaged in desperate broils, not political,
resulting in the death of bis antagonist.
Should such a man be appointed to such t

A Remedy Suggested.
Editor Morning News: Coming from Ne
York to Charleston a few days ago, one of my
fellow-passengers was an agent of a New York
house, coming South to sell their goods in all
our principal towns. He was the most bla
tant and foul-mouthed Radical I ever struck
and in iny day I have encountered some pretty
bad specimens of that tribe. I asked him how
he got along with the Southern people, enter
taining the sentiments he had expressed.
• Oh,” he said, “as scon as I strike land I talk
business only.”
This incident set me a tkinking I had spent
some weeks at the North, aud had listened to
great mtny Radical speakers, all inspired by
the same unirnu* as this Radical “drummer.' 1
The tone of bitterness and malignity exceeded
anything of the kind I had heard since the war.
And* by these means Garfield Is elected. Tbe
Northern voters were made to believe that the
South is still rebellious, aod a majority of them
went to the polls, “breathing out threatening
and slaughter” against us. with even greater
alacrity than they went to the tented field dur
ing the war.
Now, we need not be alarmed about this.
It is only a joke, periodical and per
petual. It will be laid aside now. to be re
produced four yea s hence, with many new
embellishments. In the meantime. Garfield
won’t hurt us. He will chuck)? a little over
his adroit and successful campaign, but will
protest that it was all in fun, and that he has
no enmity towards the South at a’J; and pretty
soon he will come down here with a retinue
from the White House, of both sexe-*, and the
authorities of all our cities will make haste to
tender him a becoming reception. The
agents of Northern houses will swarm over
our States, offering their goods for sale, and
the bloody chasm will all be bridged over—for
four years. The next we very well know.
Now, 1 am tired of this thing, and I do not
know of but one way to stop it. What is want
ed is a prompt, vigorous and manly ass-rtion
ot our self-respect—not in resolutions and edi
torials. except so far as these call for appro-
>riate action. The South must produce for
nefself. She is already doing reasonably well,
perhaps: but a great deal more can be accom
plished by united and concerted action,
’he object is worthy to take the first rank in
our private and public efforts to prom 'te the
interests of the South. By proper and respon
sible representations, a great deal of North
ern capital may be brought here, and ©ur
own limited capital, if properly com
bined, may be sufficient fur many
dustri&l enterprises of immense advantage
»our people individual can do much to
iroduce something which our people w ant, and
’or which their tnouey now goes into the cof
fers of our enemies. Let us put our heads and
han^s together to achieve a subst&n’id and
perpetual business independence. We shall
thereby not only rebuke our enemies in a way
they are most likely to feel, but we_render a
most substantial service to our people, and
millions more who would be glad to abide with
us if we could give them anything to do,
whereby they might earn an honest livelihood.
l’lease give this matter a little consideration,
ana I shall be gratified if your judgm *nt so ac
cords with mine that you will give it the
prominence I deem it to be worthy. II. A E.

I A letter received from Dr. W. G.
Kingsbury, dated London, is published
in the Galveston Heirs:
Inasmuch as the railroads of Texas
have often been charged with doing lit
tle or nothing in support of immigra
tion, I wish to let your readers know
what one at least has done toward get
ting the 680 immigrants by the America.
As the agent of the Sunset route and by
orders, I went to Bremen in the month
of April last, and made a special con
tract for tbe sailing of this ship direct
to Galveston instead of New Orleans,
(fearing the yellow fever), providing I
could get 500 passengers. To get the
passengers, I placed in the hands of all
the licensed immigration agents ihrough-
out Germany a pamphlet descrip
tion of Texas, each book also
containing a complete man of the
United States. I printed both at Ham
burg, and distributed from that place
30,000 copies during the months of April
and May, and since that time 15,000
more. During the month of May I also
printed a pamphlet of seventy pages at
Stockholm,and distributed them through
out Sweden, Norway and Finland. I
also, in the same month, printed another
in Copenhagen (all with maps) and dis
tributed them throughout Denmark. I
have made three protracted visits to the
continent at great expense. This same
road has also supported an expensive
agency in Switzerland from M&y to
August, and we are still aiding local
societies there. I may also state that
I saw maps and circulars of the Texas
Uentral in almost every town that I saw
in Germany, and I think it only reason
able to suppose that all this may have
had some little influence in the matter.
I am still pushing for German business

New York Sun.
The stalwarts of the New England
stripe claim to have complete possession
of Garfield, and announce that they will
prescribe the policy of the admiuistra
tion from the outset. Mr. Boutwcii.
who was a loud third-termer, and is au
extremist of the most pronounced type,
is now here. He makes no concealment
of the intentions of the faction who as
sume their right to run Garfield by vir
tue of their dominating part in the ie
cent campaign.
Their programme is to Africanize the
politics of the South by returning to the
practices in Ihe days of reconstruction.
This is to be done under tbe pretext of
“protecting a free ballot.’’ Mr Boutwcii
and the leaders who think as he does
have one great object in view, and that
is to humiliate the South by putting tbe
black race above the white* to hold tbe
States in subjection as conquered pro
vinces, and to make the people realize
that they are doomed to occupy an in
ferior position in the Union, while tb«-\
are ostensibly equals.
However It may be disguised under
fine phrases, this is the practical aim of
these political philanthropists. The last
of the colored representatives will go
out on the of March next by the re
tirement of Mr. Bruce from the Senate.
Tbe stalwarts intend to bring others into
the new Congress, by unseating member
from tbe South, believing that the pres
ence of black representatives will be n
thorn iu the side of their white rol j
leagues.
The .scheme is ihe product of narrow,
vindictive, and bigoted minds, and if j
carried out, as it is proposed, it must re
suit in great danger to the peace and tbe
prosperity of the country. The crops
of the last two years prove conclusively I
that the labor of the 5k>uth is general 1}* |
contented and doing well. They have
contributed largely to the improved cou |
dition of business everywhere.
The iudustrial development of that
section may be called astounding, when
compared with any period of the past.
The effects of emancipation are seen i
from Delaware to Texas. The freed 1
men are rapidly advancing in intelli !
gence; their children are receiving good j
education, and the race is learning to be f
self reliant and thrifty. These arc I
cheering signs, and they give promise of !
a grand future.
Btit politicians like Mr. Boutwell arc
not content to advance slowly and surelv
in the right way. They contend that as
tbe amendments of the Constitution have
made the negro equal to the white man
before the law, and have put the ballot
in the hands of the former, in order that
he might vote down his late master,
therefore he is a social equal aud must
be so treated. To enforce that equality j
he must appear in the benate and in the
House of Representatives and fill State
offices, lie must be sent to West Point !
and to Annapolis. He must represent i
the government abroad, and go on.
When a similar experiment was tried I
under Grant, it had to lie supported by
bayonets. It cannot be related without
resort to force, and the employment of
force means practically a disturbaacc of
the industry of the South, a relapse into !
the worst methods of government, and I
a check to the present prosperity, to be |
inevitably followed by a financial crash I
of temble proportions.
The leaders who are plaj ing with this ;
fire forget that they are walking on a
magazine which may explode by any in- ■
discretion, and tbe ruin thus invited will
not envelope the agricultural population
of the South, but fall directly upon the
capital, the commerce, the mflfeufactu
rers, and the enterprise of tue North

General Garfield has broken his agree
ment, but this was a part of the original
scheme, and is a part of the programme
to build up the Grant party in 1884. I
believe tbat General Garfield expects in
finitely more respectable opposition from
the Democratic party than from tbe
’306’ segment of Republicanism—and a
very small segment it will prove itself to
be* when it comes to breaking lances.”
“Will Sherman be elected Senator?”
“Most decidedly not. The election of
Governor Foster will be the test of Gen
eral Garfield’s strength in Ohio. If he
fails, his administration will be a disas
trous and unhappy one for the Republi
can party. General Garfield's mission is
not to create factions, but to kill them.
The first homicide must be committed
here in Ohio, and if Mr. Sherman wants
to ride in the funeral procession all he
has to do ik to push the Senatorial can
vass.”

Flight From Philadelphia to New
York—Seeking a Young Spanish
Lover—Arrest on a Charge ol La-
nary.
Friday says: “Mrs Eliza Berg
mono, of this city, was arrested in New
York late on Wednesday night on a tele
gram sent from this city, and locked up
at police headquarters. The fact of her
arrest was telegraphed to this city
and her brother and several other
relatives went to New York. It is
said that she was married two years
ago, when but fifteen years old. She
traveled with her husband in Europe,
and returned home recently. It is said
she bas an income in her own right of
$15,000 a year, which will shortly be in
creased to $25,000. She is very pretty,
and was very defiant to the police au
thorities for having dared to deprive her
of her liberty. It is alleged that her
family claim she is insane, and desire her
incarceration in an asylum for the in
saue. The young lady, it is said, denies
tbe assertion, and says that the family
wish to get rid of her.* She talks natu
rally enough.”
T*he New Y'ork papers contain full
particulars of the arrest of Mrs. Berg
maun, who. it is said, was a Miss Swain,
of a well known Philadelphia family.
The allegation in New York is that she
had become tired of her husband and
bad fled to New York to seek a dashing
young Spaniard, whose acquaintance
she made at sea on tbe Transatlantic
Company’s steamer France, which ar
rived on the 2d inst. While this is
borne out to a certain extent'bv state
ments made by Mrs. Bergmann to Police
Commissioner French, in New York,
her relatives declare she did not elope,
and bad no intention of joining any per
son in New York. The young Spaniard
ith whom, it is said, Mrs. Bergmann
became infatuated, is now in New York
city.
An Associated Press dispatch from
New York Saturday evening says: “Mrs.
Bergmann, of Philadelphia, is still at
>olice headquarters, closely guarded by
Matron Webb, Her husband and rela
tives have been at headquarters all day,
and various conferences, in which Com
missioner French participated, have
taken place. She was told that she was
at liberty to go with her friends, but she
refused, because she was afraid they
would put her m a lunatic asylum. Dr.
Marion Sims and Dr. Morion examined
her to-day, aud expressed the opinion
that she was certainly insane on one sub
ject. that of her infatuation for a stran
ger with whom she herself admitted that
she had very little conversation. Mrs.
Bergmann, however, maintains that
these physicians were quacks. Charles
Bergmann, the husband, was at head
quarters to da}’, but his wife refused to
see him. Efforts to effect a reconcilia
tion between them were made persistent
ly during the day by Commissioner
French and Inspector Dilks, and towards
evening they had so far persuaded Mrs.
Bergmann that she declared she would
have nothing to do with the Spaniard, for
whose sake she hud left home. She had
telegraphed to the Spanish hotel where
she thought he would be found, before
leaving Philadelphia, and receiving no
answer d« cided to seek him at the Fifth
Avenue Hotel, and afterwards by walk
ing up and down Broadway until she
met him. While resigned to the thought
that she would not see her lover again
she still refused to return to Philadelphia.
The question of her sanity will be made
the subject of judicial investigation to
morrow.”
by these extremists. It would be a* fear
ful step backward, but It will be taken
if the Boutwells control the new admic
istration, as they expect to do.

A High Spekd Locomotive. — The
Baldwin Locomotive Works have just
entered into a contract with Col. G. A-
L. Roberts, of Titusville, Pa., for the
construction of a passenger engine which
will be able to run eighty miles an hour,
and maintain this rate of speed for one
hundred miles without stopping. The
locomotive is to weigh thirty-eight tons,
and will comply with standard gauge.
The driving-wheels will be six feet in
diameter. The forward trucks and those
on tbe tender will be made of paper,
which it is said will endure more struc
and wear than iron or steel. The wbems
will ail he of the pattern known as the
broad-tread, which will enable the oflgine
•" run on roads of either 4 feet 8$ inches
4 feet 10 inches gauge. The most im
portant feature of the locomotive will he
the introduction of the Roberts patent
cylinder and piston, which, it is claimed,
bas proved capable of saving at least 25
per cent, in steam pressure.
