intolerable conspiracy. He declared the
agitators were workieg with a pecuniary
object in view, and that the L\nd L?*,

nell wa i loudly cheered as be left the cor.rt.
There ia one good reason why General
Walker should present his census returns
to the present Congre ;s in time to allow
that body to act upon plans for a reap-
poniomuent, and that ia that in many of
the States the Legislature meets biennial
ly, and, without a special session of Con
gress or a special session of the Legisla
tures in those States, the redislrictiDg of
the States could not be oompleted in
time for the Congressional elections of
1882 unless the reapportionment ’Ik
made this winter. The action of Con
gress, moreover, is of very little politi
cal, or rather partisan importance, and
cannot be made to give either party any
pronounced advantage. It can deter
mine the number of people to be allowed
to a Congressional district, but, what
ever that number may be, the propor
tion of representation from each State
must be about the same. If the reap
portionment can be made at this session,
the State Legislatures of all the States
will have plenty of time to arrange their
distriots to 9uit the new order of things.
Several Northern papers are urging
the abandonment of the national con
vention plan of nominating President
and Vico President. It is insisted that
the present system is full of objection,
and is not the plan intended by the
founders of the government. It is pro
posed as a substitute that the electors
meet in national convention instead of
in State colleges, and, after taking an
oath that they are free from all pledges
and arc at liberty to vote for any
person, proceed to elect a President.
It is thought that this plan will! necessi
tate the selecting of only the wisest, the
most discreet and reliable men for the
place of elector, and much that is objec
tionable in the convention system will
be avoided.
Army officers appear to be in a some
what quarrelsome humor just at present
The retirement of General Ord appears
to have caused some ill ieeling; the pro
posed appointment of Grant as Captain-
General has been productive of consid
erable coolness between the ex-President
and General Shermin, aud now comes a
breeze between Sheridan and Sherman
apropos of the Warren court of inquiry.
Sheridan complains that the c illiug of
the court, for which he holds Sherman
altogether responsible, really places him
self and Grant oc trial, and comj>els
them to show that they were justified in
removing General Warren from com
mand at Five Folks iu the very face of
the enemy.
The ice men of Maine had good luck
last season, and sold a million tons of
their product, bringing in at least a
million and a-half of dollars. They arc
making preparations now for housing an
enormous crop of ice, and the prospect
is that 2,000,000 tons will be cut and
stored the present winter on the Kenne
bee and Penobscot. It is not easy to see
how the ice dealers will be able to keep
up famine prices next summer; especially
as an ice crop will be gathered as far
South as Virginia.
The Railroad Problem.
The agitation of the railroad problem
involving the question of State or Fed
eral control of the railroad system of the
Uuion has received a new impetus from
the recent letter of Judge Black and the
reply of Mr. George Ticknor Curtis.
Especially in the Western agricultural
States, so largely interested in cheap
railroad transportation, is the agila
tion of the subject most earnest
and persistent. The leading journals for
the moment discuss but little else, end
they declare that it is a question which
ought now to have precedence over all
others. Some of them are taking the
ground that, as there is to be, apparent
ly, absolutely no limit to future railway
extension, the question of their relation
to the State and the people cannot be
determined too soon, so that the various
parties in interest may know precisely
where they stand. In harmony with
these view?, memorials are being for
warded from boards of trade and other
representative bodies to Western Con
gressmen, urging them to give the subject
their attention after the holiday recess;
and these are accompanied in tome cases
with significant intimations that no
member need face his constituents to ask
for a renomination unless he places him
self squarely on the record in this matter.
The question seems to have been taken
out of the arena of politics and made
one of busioess, in which all classes of
the people are interested. With a view
to force the matter upon the atten
tion of the State Legislatures and to ex
pedite a settlement of the question on
some satisfactory basis, conventions
representing the farmers and comuer
cial bodies are to be held in Kansas,
Minnesota and Iowa next month.
Some very extreme views are
advanced by the advocates of State and
Federal control, aid while much that
they demand from the railroads is just
and proper, it is to be feared that in
soeking to remedy existing evils even
greater evils may be entailed by the radi
cal legislation proposed. On this sub
ject the New York America advances
the following conservative and rational
views. Commenting on the letters of
Judge Black and Mr. Curtis, the Ameri
ca sayB
“Although not, properly speaking, a
controversy, the antagonistic opinions
given by Judge Black aud Mr. George
Ticknor Curtis in relation to the power
of the State to regulate the rates of rail
road traffic have brought out the leading
joints of difference between the contend
ng parties represented by those authori
ties. Both are emphatic in the princi
pies which they advocate, but they start
from points so widely distant and follow
two hues so perfectly parallel in contra
rv directions that they can never meet.
Between these two champions the Amcri
can people will have to decide, or per
haps to mark out a new line on ground
less accidented than that which they are
so resolutely traveling. The problem
mual some day be solved to the satisfac
tion of all interests. With a vast terri
tory where the steam engine is still un
known. we could not afford to discour
age railroad enterprise, even if the power
necessarily possessed by gigantic cor
porations were so arbitrarily exercised
as their opponents would have us be
licvc. Facts are more potent than law
Legislation must accommodate itself to
the necessities of trade and industry. In
community like the United States,
where the forces at work developing it
in all directions are so far beyond the
■>ntrol of hov human agency, it were
idle to speak of compelling them to follow
a certain course. They will not opera’e
as the legislator intends if their nature
is disregarded, and they may be lost to
progress by those who would have them
serve only a certain purpose. This great
I railroad question is not to be studied or
discussed in a law school, bn*, in the
light of public economy, by statesmen
who understand their time a».d the gen
eral march of civilization. Congress has
given an example of wisdom by refusing
to take any steps in any direction before
the greatest possible amount of informa
tion had been collected and so classified
as to afford a broad basis of intelligent
discussion.”
A Sweeping Decision hr Ihe Supreme
Court.
The United States Supreme Court has
just given an opinion in the case of Wil
liams & Arnert against Jason N. Bruffy,
administrator, the practical effect of
which, it would appear, will be to estab
lish the authority of that court to ignore
the judicial authority of any State, as
such, to issue its mandate reversing the
decision of any inferior court, without
acting through the State’s Superior
Courts, and to execute its processes di
rectly on the premises by its own Mar
shals. The case was a suit in the Circuit
Court of Rockingham county, Virginia,
against a man's estate to recover the value
of goods sold by the plaintiffs, who
are Pennsylvanians, in March, 1861.
The administrator pleaded the act of the
Confederate Government sequestrating
debts to alien enemies, and that under
that act the amount claimed had been
paid over to the receiver appointed under
the law. This payment, it was held,
discharged the debt. The Rockingham
Court admitted the plea as valid, giving
judgment for the defendant, and the
Supreme Court of Appeals of Virginia
refused to reopen the case, holding the
judgment of the court below to be
“plainly right.” The case was taken
on writ of error to the Supreme Court of
the United States, which directed the
action of the Virginia Appeal Court to
be reversed and the case to be heard
before it. To this mandate the Virginia
Supreme Court of Appeals replied, de
clining to take action on grounds mainly
technical, such as that its action bad
been final in the premises, and that the
Virginia statutes expressly prohibited
the issue of process on appeal, writ of
error or aupersolcat after a certain inter
val of time had elapsed, which was the
case in this instance. The Supreme
Court of the United States has now
decided. Justice Field delivering the
opinion, that it was the duty of the
Virginia Appeals Court to have
reopened the case, and. if it had done
so, it wcnuld have teen reason to reverse
the decision of the court below. So
long as that decision of the court below
remains unreversed it will be authority
to all the inferior courts of Virginia that
the confiscation of debts due to loyal
citizens under the act of the Confed
erate Government is a valid proceeding.
It is. therefore, the duty of the Supreme
Court of the United States to review the
case, and, in order to relieve the Vir
ginia Supreme Court of Appeals from
the embarrassment of acting in defiance
of a Virginia statute, it decides to with
draw its mandates to that court, and to
issue another mandate directly to the In
ferior Court of Rockingham, requiring
that court to reverse its judgment and to
give judgment in favor of the plaintiff
for the amount decided to represent the
claim upon an agreed statement of facts,
with interest from maturity, except for
ihe time of actual war, the judgment to
be paid by Bruffy a administrators in
like manner as other claims against his
estate. This decision seems to rover the
point that in Federal cases the Supreme
Court has the right to ignore the action
of State courts entirely, to pass them by
aud deal with the facts presented as if it
had original as well as final jurisdiction
in the premises.
The Official War Records—War Re
collections ReTiTfd.
The Federal Government has issued
the first volume of the official records of
the late civil war, the publication of
which was ordered by Congress. The
first volume is principally devoted to the
operations in Charleston harbor, the siege
and surrender of Fort Sumter, and the
beginning of the war. Among the dis
patches quoted is the following from ex-
President John Tyler, who was in Wash
ington as a friend of peace, addressed to
Governor Pickens, of South Carolina,
and dated February 18, 1801, two weeks
before the inauguration of President
Lincoln:
“Kingman, known as ‘Ion,’ who cor
responds with the Baltimore Sun, and
is considered reliable, in his letter of
vesterday says he has seen and read a
letter from a former member of Con
gres3 from South Carolina, which as
sures him that Fort Sumter will be taken
on or before the 4h of March, ’without
reference to what the Montgomery gov
eminent may advise or order on the
subject.’ This startles the President
Will you quiet him by your reply? The
State Commissioners will adjourn during
the week. No result yet.”
The history of the secession of Geor
gia and Alabama is given in the closing
pages of the volume. In connection
with the secession of Georgia the follow
ing dispatch is quoted from Col. Arnold
E'zey, a Marylander, who afterwards
served in the Confederate army, dated
“Headquarters, Augusta (Ga.) Arsenal,
January 23, 1801,” and addressed to Col.
S. Cooper, Adjutant General, United
States army:
“1 ain just officially informed by the
Governor of Georgia, now in Augusta,
supported by a superior military force,
that, Georgia having resumed exclusive
sovereignt>* over her soil, it has become
his duty to require me to withdraw the
troops under my command at the earli
est practicable moment from the limits
of the Slate. He declares his intention
to take possession of the arsenal, and
proposes to receipt for the public prop
erty, and account for the same on ad
justment between the State of Georgia
and the United Stales of America. He
further declares that the retention of the
troops upon the soil of Georgia after
remonstrance is, under the laws of na
lions, an act of hostility, claiming that
the »State now is not only at peace, but
anxious to cultivate the most amicable
relations with the United States Govern
ment, and that an answer from me to
his demand is required at 9 o’clock a. m.
to morrow. An immediate answer to
this communication is respectfully re
quested."
Rap.road Construction.—Carefully
compiled statistics show that this year
there have been constructed 5,839 miles
new ra lroads ia the country,
against 8,594 in 1870, 2,243, in 1878,
.944 in 1877, 2,283 in 1870, 1.264
1873, 1,808 in 1874, 3,606 in 1873,
and 7,065 in 1872. The roads have
been built at an estimated cost of
$30,000 per mile, nuking over $173,000, -
000, and most of this money has been
expended upon lines west of the Missis
sippi river. It would not be surprising
the construction of railroads next year
should be as great as that of 1872, for
the capital is ready for the extension of
all the Southwestern lines and the com
plstion of the Northern Pacific.
Jews in the United States.—Under
the title “Statistics of the Jews of the
Unitod States,” the Union oh American
Hebrew Congregations has published
Mr. William B. II acken burgs report
ne ha6 been engaged some five years in
collecting and arranging the “statistics,”
from which we obtain the following
summary: Jewish population of the
nited States about 250,009; number of
congregations 278, with a membership
of about 13,000; value of real eslatc and
other property (synagogues, hospitals,
cemeteries, etc.), owned by congrega
tions and beneficent societies, about
,000,000.
The Pension Tax.—A Washington
letter enys: “The continued growth of
the pension list of this country may well
be viewed with alarm. Now, after the
lapse of fifteen jears since the close of
the war, it will aggregate for the current
fiscal year, including the deficiency ap
propriation asked for by the Secretary of
the luterior, the enormous sum of fifty
million 3 . At every session of Congress
pension bills arc rushed through in heavy
batches, and members aud Senators, no
matter bow economically disposed with
regard to other appropriations, actually
seem afr&id to raise any question as to
the propriety of passing a pension bill.
Probably as much as 20 per cent, of the
amount paid out annually for pensions
is to fraudulent claimants, or to persons
who, under the most liberal construction
of the laws, have not properly any claim
against the government If something
is not soon done by Congress to throw
the necessary safeguards around the dis
tribution of pensions the frauds will
grow to such colossal proportions as to
become a burden undt r which the peo
ple will be restive.”
The New and the Old.—The Wash
ington correspondent of the Baltimore
Sun says: “Speculation in political cir
cles is already quite rife as to the proba
ble aUitudc of the stalwart wing of the
Republican party toward the new ad
ministration. After the understanding
arrived at between the particular friends
of General Grant and General Garfield
in the early part of the fall, it was con
sidered settled that his administration
would receive their hearty support. But
there aro rumors as to General Garfield’s
intentions, both in regard to policy and
patronage, which would seem to indicate
a possibility that after all his adininistra
tion may not bo in more favor with the
stalwarts, or a large portion of the stal
warts, than has been the administration
of Mt. nayes. But if this should be so
the country perhaps will not be any
worse off.”
A Fatal Wedding Day.—It has been
an open secret for some time among
their intimate acquaintances that Mr.
Douglass Warwick, of Richmond, and
Miss Nellie Burwell.of Franklin county,
were heir*-thed, and (hey were to have
been married about the firet of this
month. Everything was in readiness on
the eveninir appoint'd for the wedding,
and a carriage was sent to the depot to
meet the expected bridegroom, but in
stead of the gentleman a message came
stating that sudden illness prevented his
presence, and a-kiug that the wedding
be deferred. Thite times successively
it was postponed for tie same reason.
But last Wednesday. wh«.n, for the third
time, everything hud been prepared for
the nuptials, came the most cruel blow
cf all. ’Twas but natural that theyoung
lady should have felt some trepidation
at the approach of the carriage that had
thrice failed to fulfill its mission, aud
the tad sequel proves that her apprehen
sions were not* groundless. Instead of
greeting her future husband she received
a telegram conveying the shocking intel
licence that he was dead.—Big Lick

Some Reminiscences for New Eng
land Republican*.
The New York World scores a hard
hit on New England Republicans in the
following article:
“While New England Republicans are
celebrating their forefathers, let those |
of them, especially who sit in Congress, 1
consider the origin of the navigation
laws. They will find that under the
Confederacy each State had its own pe
culiar navigation laws, which led to
confusion between the thirteen govern
ments. South of the Delaware the laws
favored cheap ocean carriage, but north
east of it a dog in-the manger sentiment
prevailed respecting the shipping inter
est. New England was then a nest
of 6lave traders, doing a rattling
business in rum and notions with the
subjects of the Emperor of Morocco
and all manner of petty negro potentates
on the African west coast. At the same
time Virginia. Maryland and Delaware
prohibited the importation of slaves, and
New England’s chief American markets
were Charleston and Savannah. As late as
July 4, 1787, Judge Daggett, who subse
quenlly became one of ~tbe most distin
•rui&heii public men of Connecticut, was
loudly applauded when, at New Haven,
in his oration, he said: “Let us repeal
all laws against the African slave-trade
and undertake the benevolent and
humane merchandising of importing
negroes to Christianize them. Wc
should have the sublime satisfaction
of curiching ourselves and at the same
time rendering happy thousands of blacks
by instructing them in religion.” When
the Federal Constitution was adopted, to
rectify the general confusion born of
discordant State legislation, Congress
was granted power “to regulate com
merce” aud the State Legislatures were
deprived of that power. But this was
not done until the votes of New England
had been secured by amending the right
to import slaves for twenty years. It is
a mere historical fac’, that our naviga
tion laws are founded upon a compro
mise with the New England slave catch
ers and slave peddlers. Is it not in order
then for such stalwarts as Blaine, Ham
lin, Dawes, Hawley aod Fr3e to atone
for this immortal bargain of their fathers
by repealing the old navigation restric
tions of 1792 And emancipating com
merce from the slavery of such provi
sious?

Was Victoria Really Killed?—A
telegram from Dallas, Texas, says:
“Lieutenant Nevill, of the Texas Ran
gers, just in from the frontier, says he
is positive the reported killing of the
Apache Chief, Victoria, by the forces of
the Mexican General, Teressas, is a
canard. He says that a number of Vic
toria's band were killed in an effort to
make them divulge his whereabouts,
and the Mexicans were shown a moitally
wounded subordinate Chief, who in no
way resembled Victoria, and they claim
ed to have killed the latter in order to
secure the reward offered by the Mexi
can Government Lieutenant Nevill
says Victoria escaped, and is, no doubt,
organizing for more border warfare, and
is liable to be heard from at any time.”
A Michigan bridegroom was a Baptist
and Ihe bride a Methodist. They agreed
that just after the ceremony they should
decide by chance which should adopt the
other’s religion, and asked the officiating
clergyman to toss up a cent He declined
for two reasons: First, because he
thought it a wrong way of deciding a
somewhat serious que.-tion; and second,
because If the cent fell Methodist wise,
he, being a Methodist, would be accused
of fraud. Then the bride threw the coin
ami lost, but when she went with her
husband to join the Baptist Church, she
was refused admission because she didn’t
believe in close communion. This made
her husband mad, and he resigned from
the Baptist and joined her iu the Method
ist Church.
A Valuable Cargo.—Twelve hun
dred cases of silkworms’ eggs were ship

The eggs are packed in cases, each con
taining about 1,200 cards. There are

Inter state Commerce.—Judge llea-
gan. Chairman of the House Committee

soon as the funding bill is out of the way,
to move to take up his inter-State com
merce bill. He says also that he expects
to secure favorable action on it at this

any infraction of State rights, and insists
that it is simply designed to protect the
people against discriminations and un

Kellogg’s Case.—The Washington
Star learn3 tliat the majority of the Sen
ate Committee on Elections are deter
mined to get the resolution declaring
vacant Kellogg’s scat in the Senate up
as soon after the holiday recess as is
practicable, and to have a vote upon it.
The Star says: “They, evidently, do
not expect to carry it. but their purpose
is to put every Senator on record on this
question. The Democratic members of
the committee intimate the opinion that
the Democracy of the country will visit
its disapproval upon those Senators of
the party who ehall vote with the Re
publicans against th<s resolution.”

with its scholars, its learning, its pro

intellectuality—that its Jewish people

a belief on the part of the mob that such
petty daik age prejudice and persecu-

The statement telegraphed from Wash-

SUCCESS
Hot been most gratifying. We have more than doubled the volume of our business. It hi
proved to us that the old adage:
“SMALL PROFITS AND QUICK SALES,’
T S a true one. We shall therefore follow it up strictly and ooctinoe still more to increase our
buttinesa. It la inherent in people to mistrust low prices. We have had to battle against
this prejudice, but we are pleas* <1 to say that our Increased business proves we have over
come it, in a great number of instances. It is strange that in this enlightened age there are yet
people, and a goodly number of them, who do not think that they receive value unl«w* they
nave to pay two or three times as much as the article is reallv worth. We especially allude to
the Jewelry business, which isto the bulk of buyers yet a hidden mystery. We wish it to be
understood that our goods are equal to any to he had elsewhere. #ur Waltham Watches are
the same as all other Waltham Watchee. according to the fineness of the carat, and so with ail
other goods. We are determined to sell only such goods as will give Invariable aatisfaction.&nd

B
Emperor William of Germany on his
seventieth birthday told his physician
that he would make him a Count if be
brought him safely to his eightieth. He
kept the promise, and made another,
namely, to make the doctor a Prince if
he brought him to the ninetieth birth
day. 7 lie Crown Prince had better get
that doctor out of the way. The old
Emperor is now eighty three years old,
and if he reaches ninety he may promise
the doctor Prince to make him his suc
cessor if he will enable him to get
through a century of life.
A Bad 8on Ruins His Father.—J.
W. Blaxendale, son of the leading shoe
manufacturer of Brockton, Ma38., and
who had entire control of the financial
department of the business, has ab
sconded with from $8,000 to $10,000.
He had been keeping company with a
notorious woman of lioston for the past
three cnon'hs, acd it is surmised that she
went with him. His father was in finan
cial struiU a: .he time of his disappear
ance. and it is thought that this loss will
ruin him.
A police captain of Bath, Me., is a
great believer in enforcing city ordi
nances against fast driving and running
of fast trains within the city limits.
As he stood by a railroad crossing the
other day a tram came tearing by at what
seemed to him an unlawful speed.
He asked a small boy who lived right
there. “Does the train always go that
way?” “No, it sometimes goes the
other way.” . The guardian of the peace
walked away in a spirit of reflection, as
it were.
Not m Beverage.
“They are not a beverage, bat a medicine,
with curative properties of the highest de
gree, containing no poor whisky or poison
ous drug*. They do not tear down an
already debilitated system, but build It up.
One bottle contains more hop*, that is, more
real hop strength, than a barrel of ordinary-
beer. Every druggist In Rochester sella
