THURSDAY, MAY 26. 1881.
Mr. W. E. Chandler stole the vote of
the State of Florida from Tilden and
gave it to Hayes. Now he has his re
ward.
Senator George H. Pendleton, of Ohio,
has accepted the Presidency of the Civil
Service Reform Association of Cincin
nati, an organization composed of Demo,
crata and Republicans.
Colonel Robert lagersoll thinks the re
vised Bible will break up the Church,
that Garfield is in the right about Rob
ertson, and that there is more cry than
wool in the star route scandal.
Star Route Brady seems to be per
fectly enmeshed in a coil of unexplain
able wickedness, but no minion of the
law has laid a hand on him. Is he to be
merely Bdknapped, while lesser rogues
are hustled into the penitentiary?
The conservatism of the English
character is happily illustrated by the
coldness with which the changes in the
New Testament are received. The re
visers get little thanks for their labor,
though no fault is found with their
scholarship.
Washington Pott: “‘A woman in
the case’ is alleged in connection with
some of the irregularities that are leak
ing out in the Treasury Department.
This is more than probable. There are
altogether too many women about the
Treasury building—or, at least, too
many of a kind. ”
While Secretary Windom has, on the
whole, done a good thing for the govern
ment in refunding the bonds at 3* per
cent., the fact that the extended bonds
immediately command a premium and
are taken with avidity by investors
shows that the rate of interest is not so
low as it ought to be
A Philadelphia revised Testament
seller remarked last Friday that the ma
jority of people buying the book “never
pick up a Bible from one end of the year
to the other.” The Bible being a book
which is old and yet ever new, it is prob
able that these people will read it for
once in their lives at least.
Mr. Cyrus W. Field is quoted by the
New York Herald as declaring that the
streets of that city are filthier than any
he saw while making his recent voyage
around the world, He visited some of
the dirtiest cities of Europe. Asia and
Africa, too. This is a bad record for the
“oest governed city” the world ever saw.
Mr. Ashmead Bartlett, the American
husband of the Baroness Buidelt Coutts,
will sail on the Ist of June for America.
Mr. Bartlett is chairman of an emigra
tion company, and his business here is
that of making arrangements for bring
ing to this country and settling a large
number of English, Welsh and Scotch
farmers.
The experiment of ths German Gov
eminent in adopting the single gold
standard has been a pretty costly one.
The net loss on the silver sold has been
$12,000,000. The country is so poor
that it has not been enabled to keep its
hoard of gold, and has still to rely in a
great measure upon its store of silver for
circulating money.
So much is said by the theologians
about the atonement that it migut be
supposed the word occurred frequently
mthe New Testament. The fact, how
ever, is that it appears but once in the
authorized version of 1611 —in Romans,
v., 11. The revised version displaces it
by “reconciliation,” therein agreeing
with the Douay Bible.
Louisville, Ky., was somewhat excited
the other day over the arrival of an
agent of the Army and Navy Co-opera
live Society of London, who had come
there to make purchases for his firm.
As it does a business of $12,500,000, it*
trade was well worth securing, and
Louisville got quite a heavy order. The
Courier-Journal reports that the agent
would similarly visit San Francisco and
New Orleans to see what these markets
afford suitable to the large trade of the
firm he represents.
India raises nearly the entire jute crop
of the world, and the United States is its
largest consumer. The importations of
jute into England last year were 519,-
752,240 pounds, equal in weight to con
siderably over a million bales of cotton.
It shipped at the same time 121,901,584
pounds, the great majority of which
came to this country,besides 183,146,900
yards of jute cloth. All of which could
easily be raised in this country, instead
of being brought fifteen thousand miles,
at a saving of many million dollars a
year.
Referring to the fact that Thomas H.
Swan, one of the Maine Fusionists who
were offered bribes of SI,OOO and $1,500,
respectively, winter before last, to ab
sent themselves from their seats, so that
that the Republicans could carry out
their plans, is now an alleged fugitive
from justice in Washington Territory,
while Wallace R. White, charged with
tendering these bribes, has been appoint
ed United States District Attorney of
that Territory, the Bangor (Me.) Daily
Commercial remarks that Swan made a
mistake, since “the only safe place for
rascals is inside the Republican party.”
About fifty-six years ago Henry Clay
voted for John Quincy Adams for Presi
dent, and was afterward appointed by
Mr. Adams Secretary of State. Forth
with arose the cry of ‘ ‘bargain and cor
ruption.” The charge of a trade was
denied, but it nevertheless stuck. They
were both disgraced in the eyes of the
country. But nobody now thinks of
bringing a like accusation against Mr.
Garfield and Mr. Blaine. On the con
trary, Mr. Garfield is roundly censured
for not keeping & supposed bargain
made at Mentor by which he secured
the support of the Grant and Conkling
crowd.
Ex-Gov. Leland Stanford, one of the
leading railroad magnates of the Pacific
coast, who is now in New York, criti
cises with some severity the recent de
nunciation of him as a “monopolist,”
and is disposed to take issue with all
those who, he says, “are just now making
such a senseless outcry” about railway
corporations. These corporations, he
says, have given the country the great
est start on a career of prosperity it
ever experienced, and, as railroad pros
perity is indissolubly connected with
that of the people, the imputation that
their interests are in any sense antago
nistic he denounces as “a mischievous
demagogic device, which should be
frowned down,” etc.
Turpentine Farming—Yalne of Onr
Pine Forests.
The production of naval stores in
Georgia and Florida has of late years
become a great industry, which is daily
increasing in magnitude. The vast
extent of our pine forests would seem
to be exhaustless, and it is this fact no
doubt which has led manufacturers
and land owners into a care
less and wasteful system of turpen
tine farming. We are informed that
much of the land on which the “turpen
tine orchards” are located is leased on
short terms, that the owners, anxious to
obtain the ready cash, sell the privilege
for a small sum to the turpentine gath
erers, who, after “boxing" the trees for
a year or two, abandon them for other
fields. The neglected trees are exposed
to forest fires, and thus large tracts of
timber land, which might by careful
working be made productive for years to
come, are destroyed.
Under 6uch a system the naval stores
trade in this section will soon be a thing
of the past, and millions of dollars of
the products of our pine forest will be
lost to our people. It will be to the in
terest of land owners and farmers to give
this important matter their attention be
fore it is too late. In North Carolina,
the pioneer naval stores State,
this matter is well understood,
and every care is taken to
get all the yield possible from every tree
and to protect the forests from fire. In
that State many of the manufacturers of
naval stores are farmers who occupy
their time when not engaged in farm
work in this profitable business, and the
product of their small ‘‘turpentine or
chards” make in the aggregate the big
naval stores crop of the old North State.
In the interest of all concerned it will be
well for our people to give this import
ant matter their attention, and by the
adoption of a more economical system
save for themselves, and the future, this
vast source of income.
Tho Theme of Universal Discussion.
The press and pulpit of the country is
engaged in discussing the merits and de
merits of the revision of the New Testa
ment. Doubts have been expressed by
the clergymen as to whether the revision
is sufficiently "authorized” to warrant
then in using it in their pulpits. Such
changes as disturb the popular memory
of important passages, will not be well
received. There is an impression, for
instance, that the revisers had no
more authority for striking out a
portion of the “Lord’s Prayer” than
they would have had for rejecting the
whole of it. Then, there is a prejudice
against the revision of such a book. The
people have been taught to believe it
already perfect, and are not pleased to
hear it pronounced otherwise. They are
told that this is not a translation, but a
revision of an old translation, and are
apprehensive that the process of re
vision is, consequently, not yet finished,
and that so soon as a general belief in
the perfection of the present revision is
inculcated, another revision will be an
nounced.
While some regard the revision as an
improvement and harmless in its effects,
others doubt whether it is calculated to
advance the cause of Christianity, fear
ing that serious consequences will result
from such an upsetting of the popular
belief in the perfection of the New Testa
ment. Henry Ward Beecher heartily
approves the revision and says that it
ought to have been made long ago. In
another column we give the views of
Professor Swing, an eminent Chicago
clergyman on the subject.
Grant to the Rescue.
A Washington special says: “General
Grant, it is understood, will, on his arri
val in New Orleans from Vera Cruz,
proceed direct to New York, where he is
expected to arrive in time to put in some
big licks for Conkling and Platt. The
rumor has been started that in case it is
found that Mr. Conkling cannot be re
elected, General Grant will be brought
forward as a candidate. It is not likely,
however, that much could be made out
of his candidacy. It is understood that
at a conference recently of prominent
Democrats, including Senators and
others, the New York political situation
was discussed, and it was deemed that it
would be the wisest course for the Demo
cratic members of the Legislature to
avoid alliances with either wing of the
Republican party, and this view will be
impressed upon them. If by any chance
the Legislature should adjourn without
electing Senators, it is believed the
Democrats would have a very good pros
pect of carrying the next Legislature and
securing both the Senators.”
The change in the current of trade is
illustrated by the last Treasury statement
concerning our exports of breadstuffs.
For the ten months ending April 30,
1881, the New Orleans exports were in
value $11,000,000, a gain of nearly $4,-
000,000 over the corresponding period of
1880. As the total exports for the whole
country fell off during this period SB,-
680,000, it is clear New Orleans has been
diverting trade from some of her sister
ports. New York exports in these ten
months fell off $1,750,000. Boston in
the same period fell off $3,300,000,
Philadelphia $3,500,000, Baltimore $6,-
250,000, and San Francisco $2,500,000.
New Orleans is the only port increasing
its exports not only for the ten months
but for the three preceding months and
for April alone. This is doubtless solely
attributable to the development of the
barge system of shipping grain, which
is securing for New Orleans a greater
proportion of Western produce for ex
port every week.
The New Register of the Trbas
cry.— Ex-Senator Bruce entered upon
his duties as Register of the Treasury
Monday morning. A Washington
special says: “It looked rather singular
to see a colored man walk in and take
charge of this bureau, including as it
does a large number of lady clerks.
Office-seekers poured in immediately on
Mr. Bruce, and were loath to believe
when he told them that he had no power
to make appointments. He added, by
the way, that he was very glad that he
had no such power. The salary of the
Register is $4,000 per annum, but there
is no labor attached to the position at
all, the signature of the Register to the
bonds and currency being put on by
stamp.”
The Virginia election bids fair to be
hotly contested. Notwithstanding the
manifest impolicy of a Republican coali
tion with the Readjustee, as regards the
effect upon the Republican party at
large, it is very probable that such a
combination will be made. The plan of
the administration appears to be that the
.Republicans shall make distinctive legis
lative and local nominations, but shall
support the Mahone State ticket. If the
arrangement proves successful, a Blaine-
Garfield Republican is to succeed Sena
tor Johnston, and meanwhile the Ma
hone people are to have parceled out to
them a lot of small post offices. All this
will strike the country as belonging to a
rather low grade of political manage
ment.
An Important Investigation.
There is to be a scientific test in Lon
don some time in August or September
next of the appliances for the complete
combustion of smoke and the abatement
of the nuisance which arises from non
combustion- This is a matter in which
every large city has a lively interest. The
people of Cincinnati have evinced a
good deal of desire to remove the smoke
nuisance, and Senator Pendleton ad
dressed a letter to Secretary Blaine, ask
ing that the American Minister at Lon
don make a thorough investigation and
report on the results of the approaching
test. Mr. Lowell was instructed to
that end, and replied that it would
be well worth while to employ an
expert in order that the examination and
report might have a practical and trust
worthy value. He also suggested that,
for the sum of £SOO, he could secure the
services of the gentleman who is to be
the general superintendent of the Lon
don investigation, and who would for
that sum prepare a report, and also pur
chase, pack, and transmit whatever
models and apparatus would be most
useful in applying the results of the in
vestigation. Secretary Blaine reports re
gretfully that there is no available fund
from which to authorize the payment of
the compensation for the services of such
an expert, and in the absence of Congress
no steps could be taken by the govern
ment towards procuring a scientific re
port
The Chicago Tribune says the op
portunity which the London test presents
ought not to be neglected, and suggests
that the cities in the United States
which consume large quantities of bitu
minous coal should subscribe the two
thousand five hundred dollars required,
and forward it to Minister Lowell for the
purpose of procuring the desired report,
along with such models and apparatus as
will enable the municipal authorities to
establish a thorough system of inspection
and assist the consumers of coal in the
efforts they must make to abate the
smoke nuisance.
Senator Hoar Quoting Scripture.
During the debate that recently oc
curred in the Senate on the Chinese
treaty, Senator Hoar opposed the meas
ure very vehemently, and, being noth
ing, if not puritanical, he managed to
quote very copiously, as is his wont,
from Holy Writ to sustain his argument,
or, as the San Francisco Argonaut says,
“to prove from the Bible that God, in
His infinite discrimination, had the
divine purpose of settling California and
its adjacent States and Territories with
barbarians and idol worshipers, and with
the heathen who deny His existence, and
hold in utter contempt his moral and
social laws.”
Senator Hoar had brought one of his
glowing periods to a close with the
scriptural quotation, “For God has made
of one blood all nations of the earth,”
when General Miller exclaimed, “Go on;
quote the remainder of the sentence!”
“There is no more of it,” said Hoar.
“Oh, yes, there is,” rejoined General
Miller, “for the Apostle Paul said in
addition to the words which the Senator
has quoted, ‘aßd hath determined
the bounds of their habitation.’”
This was greeted by the Senate with
peals of laughter, overwhelming the
Massachusetts Senator with confusion.
He questioned the accuracy of the quo
tation. General Miller, of California,
producing a copy of the Holy Word,
and turning to St. Paul’s speech on Mars
Hill, read the whole passage, leaving the
Senator from Massachusetts to hang
upon whichever horn of the dilemma he
should find most comfortable to him.
He was eitheir ignorant of the entire
passage of the eloquent aposile, or he
bad willfully misquoted it.
Cos operative insurance is being injured
in another way besides by death-bed
risks. The Indiana legislative commis
sion favor excluding from that State all
companies issuing certificates of member
ship by which, at the death of a member,
an assessment on existing membership is
promised. The permanency of this form
of company is questioned because the
membership is not held by any obligation
beyond agreement to pay the assessments
as made, and it is claimed that it is im
practicable to compel payment by litiga
tion. There are, however, many argu
ments in favor of co-operative insurance,
legitimately conducted, which the India
na commission have evidently avoided to
study. Experience justifies the claim
that the people are as much to be trust
ed with their own funds as high salaried
officials, many of whom, having proved
defaulters, are now filling felons’ cells.
It is also true that the economy
with which cooperative insurance
associations are conducted, as com
pared with the extravagant manner of
conducting some of the companies run
on the stock plan,is an argument in favor
of security. Which is the better class
of insurance is a problem which even
the able Hoosiers have not yet solved.
Ingersoll to be Challenged. —A
prominent Washington divine is about
to issue a challege to Bob Ingersoll for
the discussion of the following question:
“That the Christian religion, as taught
by Jesus Christ and His apostles, is per
fectly adapted to the moral, intellectual
and spiritual wants of mankind, and, if
maintained and practiced in its integri
ty, will elevate and ennoble the human
race.” Inasmuch as Ingersoll has al
ways refused to accept preaching chal
lenges, this discussion is to be conduct
ed by letter. The distinguished divine
referred to will write a letter on the sub
ject, Ingersoll to have two weeks to an
swer, and says that the lecturer must
either accept this challenge or cease his
abuse of Christianity.”
Power of Congress Over Rail
roads. —Hon. James F. Wilson, a former
leading member of Congress, and who is
now a Republican candidate for the
United States Senate from lowa, in re
ply to a farmer’s letter asking for his
views on the power of Congress over
railroads, wrote: “I want the people to
understand that I believe in the power
of Congress to regulate and control in
ter-State commerce in the fullest extent,
and lam in favor of its exercise. My
own views as a citizen and a public man
are that Congress has full power over the
whole subject, and ought to exercise it.”
Mr. Wilson doubtless expects to scoop in
the granger vote with this strong bid.
Proposed Statue of Henry Clay.—
Mr. John D. Defrees, in a letter to Mr.
Thurlow Weed, calls attention to the
fact that there is uo statue of Henry
Clay in the old hail of the House of
Representatives at Washington, which
has been set aside by Congress for the
reception ot the statues of distinguished
men. Mr. Defrees says such a statue
will be placed there by the contributions
of the grateful and admiring country
men of Mr. Clay if an opportunity be
given them to do it, and says there is no
man so fit as Mr. Weed to take the lead
in devising some plan by which it can be
accomplished.

feet higher than the Savannah river at Au
gusta. The healthfulness of the place is well
known; the air pure and cool, especially at
night. The climate and well kept houses of
Aiken have made its reputation national as a

SINCE the Introduction of this Spool Cotton
into the American market, its success has
been unprecedented. No other brand of thread
has ever met with the same amount of public
favor in the same space of time.
The “O. N. T.” manufacturers were the first
to recognize die importance of the Sewing Ma
chine and to make a six-cord cotton, which has
ever since been the recognized standard for
machines.
All the improvements in machinery that the
inventive genius of the nineteeath century has
produced have been adapted by the manufac
turers of “O. N. T.”
At all the great International Fairs of the
world, “O. N. T.’’ has been awarded the highest
honors.
The “O. N. T.” factories at Newark, N. J.,
and Paisley, Scotland, employ 5,200 operatives
—make sufficient thread daily to go around the
world four times.
Consume 140 tons of coal daily.
The manufacturers of “O. N. T.” are the
largest manufacturers of Spool Cotton in the
i world.
A full assortment of this Spool Cotton can be
had at wholesale and retail at DANIEL HO
GAfii’S. JACOB COHEN’S, MOHR BROS’, DA
VID WEISBEIN’S and GUTMAN BROS’.
