The f gjptlan Saddle
Tfc*; outcome of the crisis in Egypt is
difficult to foresee. It seems improbable
that the terms prescribed by England
and France for Turkish intervention will
be agreed to by the representatives of the
other powers in the Constantinople con
ference Get many, Austria and Italy are
credited with admitting the complete
suaerainty of the Porte over Egypt,
and it is, probably, for this reason that
the Sultan again declares the conference
inopportune. Though England and
France admitted the Porte’s suzerainty,
when they appealed to it for the deposi
tion of Ismail end the elevation of Tewfik
at Khedive, they now wish the Porte to
appear solely as the mandatory of the
power*
Though B.smarcfc would find it hard
to set up any special interest of Germany
in Egypt, he has chosen to assume the
rok of protector of the Sultan, and a
hint from him has its weight Italy is
ambitious, and having an opportunity to
show her importance embraces it and
adds to the complication of the problem.
Austria's interest is more in what may
follow than in what is actually occurring,
and it suits her to range herself with
Italy and Germany. England and
Fiance have appe iled to the
j conference, but have reserved the right
not to be bound by its decision, shomd
it be counter to their wishes. They
have assumed that the powers should
order the Porte to tranijuilize Egypt,
and declare that, if this is not done, they
will undertake the work themselves. It
would appear that they should have
done this already. In fact, they did un
dertake the task by sending ironclads to
overawe the rebels. They should have
sent armies with the Eijuadrons.
If the other powers had
then insisted on the rights
of the Sultan, they could have pru
dently halted ere proceeding further
with their self appointed task. Now
they will have to get their forces ready,
and, possibly, land them in opposition
to the wishes of the other powers.
What would follow such a course is
urn ertain, but the probabilities are that
the other powers would insist upon their
wishes being heeded. Again, urabi
claims that he is able to prove that the
Porte has instigated his whole con
duct towards the Khedive. If this
is the case, and there are good grounds
for thinking it is, England and France
would risk a great deal in allowing the
Sultan to interfere ia Egypt, even as the
mandatory of Europe. Moreover, it is
intimated that Bismarck has been the
P irte’s teacher in its attitude towards
Arabi, and this affords the most likely
explanation of his stickling for thc-
Porte’s rights. Thus it would appear
that, if the task is assigned the Sultan of
restoring order in Egypt, it will be in
his character of sovereign. This Eng
land and France dispute, and they
must let their interests in Egypt
go by the board, or boldly proceed to
-juiet the country themselves. Both M
de Freycinet and Mr. Gladstone have
stated that when the time came their
respective governments would be pre
pared to do their part in the premises.
That England is preparing for the con
tingency is evidenced by the signs of
preparation that are manifested in the
British arsenals and dockyards.
The possibilities of the question are
so numerous and grave that one would
need the gift of prophecy to foretell their
sentence. England and France could
solve the problem speedily if suffered to
do so. But whether, if the other powers
should resist them in the undertaking,
they would persevere, is doubtful.
National pride and the rights of their
subjects in Egypt would dictate the
straining of ail their resources to maintain
their position. But a war with
the rebels would be quite a different
thing from a conflict with the powers
that maintained the rights of the Sultan.
Arabi s conduct justifies the conclusion
that he has friends in Europe, and the
hesitancy of the Western powers would
imp’y that they feel that their position is
critics 1 . and that however easy
of solution the Egyptian prob
lcai appeared at first view, it
ha* become so complicated as to call for
ut expenditure of thought and atten
tion that they had not bargained for.
The question may be settled peacefully,
but from its present aspects it foreshad
ows more momentous possibilities
than have followed few social
disturbances since the French revolution.
The rise of Arabi, the humiliation of the
Khedive, the dispatch of the squadron
to the Nile, the riots in Alexandria and
the conference of the diplomats have all
been mere by play. The drama has yet
to begin.
The Southern Farmer's Monthly for
July.
The July number of the Bmthorn Far
m-.r't Monthly has been laid on our
table. This number of the journal, both
in its typographical make up and its
valuable contents, holds the high posi
lion it has gained as a leading farmers
journal of the country. The table of
contents is varied in character, embrac
ing valuable papers on agriculture, hor
ticulture, stock, poultry ’and household
subjects, besides correspondence sug
gesting practical ideas of value to every
farmer in the South.
The editorial department is, as usual,
ably conducted, and is full of im
portant ideas on a variety of interest
ing subjects, while the miscellaneous de
partment presents the customary readable
variety. The Southern Fat mer’s Monthly
should find its way into the home of
every intelligent Southern farmer, as it
is published at the low price of $2 per
year. Its present issue makes up a
really handsome and attractive volume
of valuable reading.
lt reports be true, business is active in
the Northwest, even if strikes and dull
re-s arc the rule elsewhere, and it seems
that the prospect of abundant crops evi
dently has imparted a freer movement to
merchandise in that quarter. The St.
Paul PUmeer-Pre*s, for example, says:
“The merchandise trade here was never
better. Grocers report extensive sales.
One house, to meet the demauds of its
customers, has been obliged to employ a
number of men in addition to its already
large force. This is but a sample of
what other houses in the same line are
doing. The clothing trade has shown
marked improvement, with liberal de
mand from Wisconsin and from the Red .
River valley and North, and from the
line of the Northern Pacific. Hardware
and kindred goods are booming.’’
It seems that efforts are being made to
revive the old Know Nothing, or Native
American, party in New York. It is
stated that an organization known as the
Legion of Liberty have put a ticket in
the field for Governor and Lieutenant-
Governor of that State. The platform
of the new party is very brief. It con
sists of three planks, as follows:
“First—Americans to rule America.
“Second —Honest men for public
trusts.
“Third—We expect honest men to
vote for them."
The Advance In Cotton.
Cotton has taken a decided spurt
during the past two days, spots having
advanced from 12±c., the closing figures
at New Y*ork Tuesday night, to from
12 7 16c. to 12 1116 c., and futures having
also scored a net advance since that time
of about twenty points. This rise is at
tributed to various causes—mainly, so
far as we can gather, to the short crop
of this year and the short supply to meet
the demand before the next crop comes
in, and to the increased complications in
Egypt, which threaten to become still
more serious, and to cut off the supply
usually received from that source.
Whatever the cause, the advance has
proven very grateful to a large number
of our operators who are on the “long”
side, and if it continues no doubt n con
siderable portion of the money lately lost
in this city on stocks will be recovered. It
is, however, simply impossible to make
any reliable forecast of the price of the
great staple, since its rise or fall is
always to a greater or less degree con
trolled not by the laws of legitimate sup
ply and detrand, but by the manipu
lation of speculators. The acknowl
edged shortness of the crop this
year, added to the probable lateness
of the growing crop and the Egyptian
muddle,by which unless, settled speedily,
it is estimated 400,000 bales will be cut
off from the Nile region, all certainly
point to a decided advance yet. But, on
the other hand, as will be seen from the
report of the correspondent of the New
Y'ork Sun on the cotton situation, else
where published, a powerful bear syn
dicate is doing all it can to hammer
the market in the hope that they may ge*.
up a large “short” interest, and then by
purchasing and holding all the spot cot
ton they can get their hands on, “cor
ner” the market this summer, and so
run up the price to any figure they may
desire.
While, therefore, a still further* ad
vance seems to be certain eventually, it
is impossible to tell whether a decline
may tot be witnessed in the meantime,
or whether prices will continue to shoot
upward. The only advice we can give
in the premires is for our operators
to keep their eyes opeD, and to specially
beware of the tricks and 9harp prac
tices of shrewd Northern speculators
and manipulators.
Shall the Democracy Triumph In
1884?
To this question we unhesitatingly an
swer yes, in spite of Radical rascalities,
thefts, etc., if (there is always an “if”)
the Democrats will organize as before
our disastrous split in 1860, and, sub
mitting to the old sound party discipline,
sink personal preferences and prejudices
in the one great object of party success.
Hitherto since reconstruction began, Na
tional Democrats have been defeated
rather by our own want of internal har
mony and unity of purpose than by ltadi
cal strength and trickeries. As the ex
plosion at Charleston and its bloody re
sults rended us into factions, so
have we continued to be disunited,
instead of rallying with one heart
around a central principle. This expe
rience, however, has not been without
its good influences, and ha 9 impressed
upon Democrats—those who really hold
to certain definite maxims of national
policy—the absolute necessity of yield
ing minor views to the major consider
ation. Evidences of this returning per
ception of our common duty come to us
from all parts of the United States.
In our own State, the pro
posed nomination of Mr. Alexander H.
Stephens for its Governor is received
throughout the counties with such general
favor as to indicate the disposition of our
Democratic fellow citizens to reconstruct
the Union and the uuity of the party in
Georgia, and to discourage discontent
and mutioy by ambitious aspirants for
public office. The vanity that would
throw the interests of the State into the
hands of the Radicals for the purpose of
gratifying the cravings for popular favor
of a few selfish men, has been decidedly
“sat upon," and who ever shall attempt
“Independentism” now in Georgia Demo
cratic politics will excommunicate him
self from the national Democracy, and
be so regarded.
Asa fine old statesman of the olden
time, Mr. Stephens adheres to the high
toned maxim of those nobler days, that
“the office should seek the man, not the’
man the office.” Knowing that fitness
for place is the true test of qualification,
and not “who spoke first,” Mr. Ste
phens has not sought the Governorship,
but the State Executive is seeking him.
and in this search we see the evidences
of the desire of our National Democrats to
crystallize on the great principles of the
party by evaporating all watery elements
that create flaws ami seams. Georgia is
an influential State in the estimation of
the people of the United States, and
therefore it becomes us to be a unit in
politics in order to maintain our prestige.
So then, whatever the decision of our
State Convention, whether for Mr.
Stephens or any other of the gentlemen
named for it, let every Democrat accept
the nominee without cavil, as the key
stone binding firmly together, tor all
time, the Democratic arch in Georgia.
Democrat ok the Old School.
Marital insurance companies, which
seem to regard the South as a fair field
for enterprise, are not meeting with
much encouragement in many States.
The State of Pennsylvania, which was
recently the paradise for kindred institu
tions, now popularly known as death
bed insurance associations, is inclined to
view them with great distrust. Judge
Henderson, of the Twelfth Judicial Cir
cuit of Pennsylvania, recently expressed
himself regarding them in these decided
terms:
“We are not satisfied that these asso
ciations are not injurious to the commu
nity. They are not calculated to inspire
confidence in the marriage relation. Its
purity is the rockbed of society. Neither
the welfare of the State or the commu
nity demands such benefit or encourage
ment as is here sought to be given to the
individual. It does not add to, but takes
away from the sanctity of a holy ordi
nance. Asa civil contract, the highest
consideration should be mutual love and
affection. It ia degraded by any other,
and the idea of mu ual benefit and pro
tection in the mode prescribed by certifi
cates of membership and assessments
upon the members, is, in our opinion,
altogether chimerical. No practical or
beneficial result can flow from it. A
premium upon marriage may be the
price of virtue. Neither the wants of
community, the good of society, or the
welfare of tne Individual require aDy
such organizations On the contrary, we
believe that in the end they will prove
subversive of virtue and good morals.”
Dr. Hugo Philler, an aged, trusted,
and experienced physician of Waukesha,
Wis. .. administered a dose of morphine
to Mrs. Magdalena Hille by mistake for
quinine, and caused her death. Dr.
Philler had been out all night and was
exhausted by want of sleep. He dis
covered the mistake, and hurriedly or
dered his team, procured a stomach
pump and antidotes, and drove as fast
as he could to the Hille residence. The
time of his arrival was about 50 minutes
after the morphine had been administer
ed. He used the stomach-pump and
applied his best art, but Mrs. Hille was
beyond all help, and died soon after.
Judge Bruce, of the United Btates
Court for the District of Alabama, has
just rendered a decision in an election
case which squarely opposes the rulings
of Judge Bond in the Charleston elec
tion cases. He denies the right of the
government to order unsatisfactory ju
rors to “stand aside.”
Condition of Ntgrotg in Kansas.
When the so called philanthropists of
the North, some two or three years since,
for political purposes induced a large
number of negroes to leave their South
ern homes and emigrate to the bleak
Northwest, it was generally predicted
that the misguided freedmen would sin
cerely rue their bad bargain, and would
regret the day they had ever listened to
the delusive words of politicians who
really cared nothing for them, but who
merely wished to do as they had ever
done—assume the guise of friends of the
“poor African” that they might the more
easily mislead him, and make of him a
tool and puppet for advancing the
schemes and purposes of Radicalism.
These predictions have been fully veri
fied. The negroes who were thus in
duced to leave the homes of their birth
to try their fortunes as strangers in
strange lands are reported to be in the
greatest destitution. So great indeed
are their sufferings that it has become
necessaiyto institute a regular system
of begging for aid to save the poor
creatures from actual death, and we
read that people outside of Kansas
are asked to furnish $lOO,OOO or there
abouts wherewith to buy land and build
houses and fences for these unhappy
victims of Radical duplicity and hypoc
risy. And it seems that upon the suc
cess of these begging missions rests the
fate of the “refugees,” as they are
termed. If the appeals are granted, the
negroes may live; if not, nothing is left
them but to suffer as best they may, and
meet their fate with what fortitude they
can command. That this last will be
the lot of some, if not a majority, is evi
dent, for it is stated that the applications
in behalf of the sufferers are exciting lit
tle or no enthusiasm.
One cannot keep from feeling sympa
thy for the poor negroes who have al
lowed themselves to be reduced to this
condition, Tor there is some excuse for
them. Thefr ignorance and credulity
caused them to believe the stories told
them that Kansas was a land flowing
with milk and honey, an Utopia where
all things needful for life and happiness
might be had for the asking, and where
they could at last enjoy their idea of
freedom—liberty to do as they wished,
work or not as they pleased, and yet
live in peace aud plenty. True, it
is pissing strange that after their
vast experience with their Northern
philanthropic!?) allies—who have always
used them as hobbies on which to ride
into political power; who promised them
“forty acres and a mule,” and yet never
fulfilled their word, who robbed
them through the medium of the Freed
man’s Savings Bank, and who, in short,
seem never to weary of misleading and
deceiving them—they should have again
become such ready dupes. Still, as we
have said, they are, as a rule, a credulous,
thoughtless race, easily imposed upon,
and for that reason their unhappy lot nat
urally excites commiseration. But what
must be said of those who, for political
purposes, and to create a false impres
sion as to the misery, oppression and
unhappiness of the blacks in the South,
deliberately lured them away from home
to poverty, distress and destitution.
Such as these are only entitled to be held
in universal execration, and upon their
heads will rest the blood of each and all
their victims whose deaths from suffer
ing or starvation may occur as the result
of having too credulously listened to the
falsehoods poured into their ears with
the sole object in view of exciting sec
tional prejudice and maligning the
Southern people.

We’re betting that Mrs. Christlancy goes

to pUy Juliet beautifully.— Boston Post.
At New Albany, Indiana, recently, Henry
Kraft, a butcher, killed a cow, from the
stomach of which he took two pouads six
ounces of nails, a knitting needle, a silver
five cent piece, half a dozen hairpins, part
of the steel work of a woman’s corset, the
buckle of a pccketbook, and other similar
articles.
“The Princess of Wales,” says London
Truth, “never looked more charming than
she did at the trooping of the colors. She
was accompanied, as usual, by her three
little daughters. The Princess appears to
have Eolved the problem of eternal youth.
She looks very little older than she did as a
bride, nineteen years ago. Her bonnet was
almost covered with pale green grapes.”
Four cowboys were put out of the way
for cattle stealing near Platt Point, Texas,
on Tuesday last. Two were hung to trees
and two shot to death. A Dallas special to
the Cincinnati Enquirer of the 22d instant
says: “Cattle stealing bad been going on
on a large Ecale in that section for several
weeks, and it is pretly certain that these
men were overtaken by the vengeance of
those whose cattle they had been driving
off. The dead men were all young, and
dressed In cowboy costumes.”
In London has been founded a National
Society for the Suppression of Juvenile
Smoking. One of the leaders In the move
ment Is the eminent teetotaler, Dr. Benja
min Ward Richardson. Letters in approval
of the society’s aims were read from the
Earl of Aberdeen, Mr. Samuel Morley and
others. Dr. Richardson said the use of to
bacco by the youDg was a grave and
increasing evil, and that the effects of it on
them were destructive both to mind and
body. He was convinced that the need for
th: society was large and real.
Prince Bismarck has recovered from his re
cently reported ill health. He had been
gone some days from Berlin, when he sur
prised the Reialhtag one day by suddenly
appearing before It, looking marvelously
well and sun-burned. He was dressed in
full regimental uniform, and wore the star
of the order of ths Black Eagle around his
neck. He was ou his way to meet the Eirt -
peror, and, after shaking Lands with a lew
friends aud showing no irritation at the re
jection of several government bills, he left
the house with the blandest of smiles play

Near Crowland, In Eagland, on the estate
of Lord Normanson, workmen have brought
to light about three acres of a subterranean
forest some ten feet below the surface of
the ground. Many of the trees are declared
to be In an admirable state of preservation.
One of them is an enormous oak over fifty
feet tn length. It Is possible even to dis
tinguish the various kinds of trees. The
most abundant Is a kind of fir, the wood of
which Is so bard that the trees can be drawn
out of the clay In their entirety of root aud
branch, (juantities of flags, grasses, aud
other growths are found In the clay along
with the trees.
In the Bern* da Deux Moudes M. Victor
Cherbulitz treats the objections to the pro
posed channel tunnel, from a military point
of view, as absurd. He acknowledges that
Frenchmen, as a rule, are so afraid of sea
sickness that many would-be tourists have
remained at home; and that in future Eng
land might be more persecuted by French
art, philosophy, republicanism, and possi
bly Nihilism, than heretofore in case the
tunnel were dug. He concludes by saying
that, for the sake of allaying the actual and
anticipated distress of a few victims to sea
sickness, it is not worth while to fortify
Djyer and Calais; and that, if the tunnel
cannot be made without panic and national
misunderstanding, it would better remain
unmade.
Not far from Farges-les Bains, in France,
has been brought to light some inter
esting evidence concerning an ancient tower
near the parish church. It was known that
Thomas Boulen, or Boleyn, while the Am
bassador of England in France, had his
daughter Anne brought up in the Chateau of
Brus sous-Farges till she was fifteen, that
he then took her to the Court of France,
where she was well received, and that he
returned with her about. 1525 to England,
where she was certainly well received. Now
It is claimed, with good reason, that the
tower in question is the donjon of the old
chateau In which Henry VHl.’s second wife
and the mother of Queen Elizabeth passed
her youth. The place is about an hour and
three-quarters distant by rail from Paris.
Further items in the annual report of the
Butz canal managers are made public In
Paris. Last year’s figures show a percentage
increase over those for 18S0 of 34 per cent,
in the number of vessels and tonnage, and
of 28 >£ Der cent, in the receipts. Of the
2,727 vessels which passed through the
canal 1,406 came from the Mediterranean
side, and 1,321 from the Red Sea side; 2,010
were merchant vessels, 135 were in ballast,
412 were matl steamers, and 42 transports.
Of the passengers 43,000 were soldiers,
35,600 clvlllane, 7,200 pi'grims, 480 convicts,
and 337 Australian emigrants. To the
already ex ieting lines 46 new vessels were
added. The vessels bound direct for Aus
tralia numbered 06, against 51 In 1880,which
is a surprising evidence of growth In the
southern continent.
Many singular and sensational crimes have
been recorded in the Paris police reports
this month, but few have been more aston
ishing and none perhaps more painful than
an attempt at donb’e murder made by a
band of youthful reprobates on the banks
of the river at Bievres the other afternoon.
Wearied of marbles and seeking some new
sensation the precocious juveniles in ques
tion hit upon the idea of playing at murder.
Two luckless members of the party were
instantly bound hand and foot by the other;
and tossed Into the slimy and unsavory
stream, where, bat for the timely arrival of
a man who saw the whole scene, they would
most probably have perished. The would
be assassins were let off with a reprimand
on promising not to commit any more crimes
till they grew up.
Thanks to the persecution of the Jews, a
scandalous scene occurred recently in the
lobby of the Hungarian Parliament. Istoczv,
a Magyar representative, took occasion, in a
speech calling attention to the danger of
Immigration of Russian Jews into Hungary,
to attack the Semitic race in a fierce philip
pic. Representative Wahrmann, who Is an
Israelite, defended his race, and, carried
away by excitement, indulged In some un
parliamentary remarks which Istoczv inter
preted as an insult to him, though they were
overlooked by the Speaker. After the ses
sion he attacked Wahrmann in the lobby,
and there was an interchange of indecorous
words, followed by blows. In consequence
Wahrmann challenged Istoczy to a due).
Wahrmann is an elderly, obese gentleman,
nearly blind In one eye and short-sighted in
the other, whereas Istoczy is a fighter of the
old Maygar school. It is therefore hoped
that so one-sided a duel may be prevented.
Dervlsch Pasha, the Bultan’s present rep
resentative in Egypt, is one of the many
celebrated men who might have lived and
died unknown but for a lucky accident.
During the first rebellion of the Bosnian
Mussulmans against the Porte, Dervlsch,
then a young Captain of Turkish inrantry,
was sent with thirty men by Omar Pasha to
secure a ferry boat which was required for
the transportation of the troops. The boat
was on the othej.slde of a swollen rlvec, and
the bank swarmed with Bosnian sharp
shooters, but Dervlsch, setting his little
“band to divert the enemy’s attention with a
spattering fire, boldly swam across, cut the
rope and brought back the boat. When he
returned with it and the three survivors of
his thirty men, Omar Pasha, who was talk
ing with an English correspondent, merely
said: “Well done, Captain Dervlsch!”
The Englishman exclaimed loudly against
this cold acknowledgment, when Omar
coolly replied : “Well, don’t excite your
self ; he shall have the first vacant commis
sion.” The General kept his word. Der
vlsch Aga soon became Dervlsch Pasha, and
afterward entertained his English advocate
as Governor of one of the largest provinces
in Turkey.
Camels live from forty to fifty years;
horses average from twenty-five to thirty;
oxen, about twenty; sheep, eight or nine;
and dogs, twelve to fourteen. Concerning
the ages attained by non domesticated ani
mals, only a few Isolated facts are known.
The East Indians believe that the life period
of elephants is about three hundred years,
instances being recorded of these animals
having lived one hundred and thirty years
in confinement after capture at an unknown
age. Whales are estimated to reach the
age of four hundred years. Some reptiles
are T ery long lived, an Instance belDg fur
nished by a tortoise which was confined In
1633 and existed until’ l7s3, when It perished
by an accident. Birds sometimes
reach a great age, the eagle and the
swan having been known to live one bun- ’
dred years. The longevity of fishes is often
remarkable. The carp has been known to
live two hundred years, common river trout
fifty yeais, and the pike nicety years,
while Gesner—a Swiss naturalist—relates
that a pike caught In 1497 bore a ring re
cording the capture of the same fish two
hundred and sixty-seven years before. In
sects are very short lived, usually complet
ing the term of their existence in a few
weeks or months. Some even pert9h within
a few hours after emerging from a e rub
state, and die ou the very day of entering
upon their new life. Asa general rule, not
to be applied too clo;ly, larger types of
animals live longer than smaller.

Jacksonville, June 27.—A correspondent
of the Advance-Gazette , of Pensacola, who
signs himself “Justice,” protest! again - ,t the
strictures of “Potomac,” who, in a recent let
ter from Washington to your paper, painted
the character of Rev. William Watkin Hicks
in rather lively colors. "Justice” must be one
of the many dupes of the arch impostor Hicks,
or he must be utterly ignoraot of the estima
tion in which this “worthy citizen” is held in
Florida. If “Justice” will take the trouble to
trace the career of this humbug in Charleston.
8. C . where he first made his appearance after
the war as the editor of one of the most stal
wart Democratic, fire-eating magazines ever
published ia the South, then follow him to
Augusta, Qa., and from that point to Dade, St.
John’s and Duval counties, in this State, he can
gather reams of evidence to satisfy him that
he is farle r s of a saint than a sinner. In Ma
con, Ga., he also edited a Democratic paper,
and the writer has seen him hand vid glove at
a Congressional district convention with the
delegates of that parly, in the eld oapltol
building at Miiledgeville. When he reached
Florida the Radicals were in power, and it re
quired no effort on the part of this “loved
pastor” at once to fraternize and graze with
the black sheep. Even here among his newly
found Republican friends he was regarded
very much in the same light as was Friar Tuck
by the rollicking archers of Robin Hood’s
band, and his associates always looked upon
him as one of themselves. To these comrades
be was “Billy Hicks,” without the prefix of
“Rev.,” and was “hail fellow, well met,” at
all of their gatherings. He assisted in all their
schemes, participated in all their councils, aud
was familiar with all their villainies. A man
of great versatility, he was ever ready at a
moment's warning to make a stump speech,
boss a camp meeting, lead at a negro love
feast, or form one of a social symposium. He
was a big man, was Billy, during the Radical
regime, and fumed and swelled and strutted
with the best of his compeers.
But the tide turned at last, and his light was
extinguished. All the bright dreams of politi
cal distinction vanished into thin air, and the
charming possibilities of ever becoming a
Governor or Benator of Florida were at once
and forever dissipated. Billy sought new
fields, and discoveied at Washington fresh
simpletons, who have erected a church and
placed him in itspubpit. He has pretty well
boxed the religious compass already, having
been since his debut in the South a Lutheran,
a member of the Southern Methodist, then a
Northern Methodist, and is now, as we under
stand it here, a sort of an independent evan
gelist.
His lecture upon Abraham Lincoln was
adroitly altered after he came South to an
eulogy upon General Lee, and this * ftort first
commended him to the sympathy of the
Bouthern people. His want of a fixed pur
pose bos been his ruin. “Unstable as water.thou
sbalt not excel,” is entirely applicable in h;s
case, and he changes with equal facility his
religious, political and souial vestments.
Just in his present position as Guiteau’g
“Brother Hicks,” his cup of vanity is full, and
his love of notoriety is gratified. He is now on
a boom. The papers are ablaze with his name,
and if his client, through his efforts, can only
be induced to assert his penitence for his
crimes, and ask for forgiveness. Brother Hicks’
fame and fortune are secured, and his admi
rers will, at onoe, be forced to enlarge the tab
ernacle. You may be sure that Guiteau’s
‘ Brother Hicks" will make the most of this
great opportunity, and that he will achieve
fame if it be even necessary to link his name
with that of one of the most infamous of
assassins
The editor of the Advance-Gazette, in his
comments upon the letter of “Justice,” after
remarking that the article was published in
consequence “of our high regard for the wri
ter,” accompanies the same with these fine and
artistic touches:
“We never knew to what extent a sacrl
legious use of the Holy Scriptures could be
put until we heard this hero of Christianity on
tne stump. We never heard a man appeal to
the baser passions of his colored hearers with
greater unction than this same blasphemous
divine. We never saw a man who pretended
to be a Christian minister, the type of charity
to all mankind, /llify his neighbors, accusing
them of having committed scores of political
murders, and similar talk to the same unchris
tian purpose with a greater disregard for the
truth than this model of every Christian vii
tue.”
Guiteau’s Brother Hicks got angry with the
writer of this, a few years ago, and instituted
a suit for damages to the amount of twenty
thousand dollars, which he never dared to
press to trial. The touching, beautiful, pa
thetic and "searching” prayer of Billy Hicks,
next Friday, on the scaffold, will be a model of
Englisb composition. Every word has been
carefully weighed and adjusted, and it will be
a classic piece of word-framing. In the
sketches of the scene by the various artists
Brother Hlcln will be one of the central fig
ures, and will draw, in point of interest, next to
Brother Guileau himself.
A marked advance in our city is noticed in
the erection of a large grain elevator, of the
capacity of 10t>,000 bushels. This shows a
great increase of business in this direction.
The next thing to follow should be a steam
cotton press. When we have the road through
to Pensacola next winter and 18 or kO feet of
water secured on the bar, it will not be unrea
sonable to expect large shipments of cotton
from the West When the cotton comes, buy
ers will be found, and this city will figure as
one of the points for the exportation of the
fleecy staple. Jacksonville intends to utilize
every possible advantage with which she is
favored to the utmost extent. She is a young
and muscular athlete, read? to wrestle for the
supremacy with adversaries much older thau
herself, and is pushing up to the front rank
surely and rapidly.
Steamers are multiplying upon our river, dnd
freights are increasing to tucb an extent as to
require the construction of a line of barges for
heavy merchandise. In all directions can be
heard the lively music of the hammer and the
saw. Inferior buildings are being replaced by
finer structures, and everywhere I* the cheer
ful hum of industry.
The Duval county Democratic Convention
has been called on the 221 proximo, to select
sixteen delegates to the District Convention,
which will assemble in this city on the 2d of
August. This county and Alachua poll the largest
Democratic vote in the State. From present
appearance?, I am led to believe that General
Finley will not be nominated by acclamation,
as was at first thought probable, and it is not
unlikely that he will encounter opposition in
the convention.
Thus far no steps have been taken by the
Republicans throughout the State looking to
the commencemet of the fall campaign. Boss
Bisbee is not quite ready yet, and when he
titillates his nostrils with a pinch of snuff, all
his courtiers win fall to sneezing. His royal
will has not yet been promulgated, and conse
quently all of his attendants preserve a dis
creet silence. Thefe are rumors that some of
the boldest of his henchmen-are becoming res
tive, and that the dissatisfaction may yet re
sult in open defiance of his assumed preroga
tive. When the royal animal, however, comes
down, shakes his mane, utters his ominous roar
and shows his teeth and talons, the jackals
will cease their yelpings and crouch hi silent
and timid submission. He is the boss Republi
can ot Florida, has the ear of the President,
dispenses the Federal patronage, ani woe to
the dissatisfied malcontent who dares to rebel
against his sovereign will and pleasure. The
“little giant” Dennis Is about the only man in
the party who ventures openly to heard him in
his den and defy his authority. Whether the
breach bctwetn the two, effected two years
ago, has been bridged over, remains to be seen.
We are now within a week of the glorious
Fourth, and Jacksonville will permit the day
to pass unnoticed save perhaps by a national
salute. P&latka and other towns up the river
are preparing for an elaborate celebration,and
many of our citizens will make an excursion
to those patriotic places.
Our hot weather, ranging to 90 degrees and
upwards, is tempered by frequent showers.
We are blessed iu being rarely visited by such
destructive cyclones as those which have re
cently deva tated lowa. Although under the
tropics, tornadoes are very infrequent, and
only occasionally are life and property im
perilled by such agencies.
Some of the Columbia county farmers are
planting orange groves. In which the peach
and orange trees alternate. This is a good idea.
The peach crop in this State is an absolute
failure, and but few, and those of an inferior
quality, are imported from Qeorgia, where the
papers say they are abundant.
It begins to look as if Governor Bloxham’s
efforts to secure from the General Government
Saymeut for the amount expended by the
tate in repressing Seminole hostilities will, at
last, prove successful. The Judge Advocate
decides that the claim should be allowed for
$234,648 09, the original claim having been
$279,083 67.
Fitsgerald, the suave and polished bunco
man. who has just been sentenced to the peni
tentiary for five years for swindling Charles
Francis Adams, practiced his calling in this
State last winter, and succeeded in getting
checks for several thousand do lars from a
stranger in Green Cove, which he was com
pelled to disgorge.
There seems to be rather a lull in the lumber
business at present, and there are fewer vessels
in port than usual. A heavy home demand ex
ists for lumber, however, and larger quantities
are being carried off by trains and steamers.
There being a vacancy from this Congres
sional district at West Point, a competitive
examination of applicants for the position will
be held in this city on the 13th of July. Col.
Bisbee has selected a colored man as a member
of the committee. As he does nothing with
out a motive, people are anxious to know what
can be the purpose hidden under this strange
proceeding, ana are asking it he wants another
Flipper or Whittaker. W. H. R
A Butcher on Frozen Meat.—Lon
don butchers do not believe in frozen
meat. One of them writes to the Times
in these indignant terms :
“The stupid twaddle written on the
above subject by some of your corre
spondents is most ludicrous to those who
practically know about butcher’s meat
and its supply. For instance, the agent
general of New Zealand says there was
no better meat to be seen in market the
other day than the mutton from that
country. Now, sir, any one who knows
anything of the matter knows this to
be absolutely untrue. This meat, when
it first comes into market, looking
bright and clean, is to the touch
like a piece of stone, when no one can
be deceived hy its appearance. After
ward it begins to weep and becomes wet
and thawed, and after being kept a day
or two looks as though it had been drawn
through a horse pond. Is it likely that
anyone in his common senses would-mis
take that for the best English meat? As
for the butcher palming it off as such,
this is simply stupid nonsense. How
would a good cook like a lump of stone
sent to her to cook iu the shape of a leg
of mutton? Is it likely she would be
deceived about what it was, or, if it was
sent when it was thawed and wet, would
she be likely to take it in?”
It is a curious instance of the strin
gency of the regulations at the English
court that gentlemen wearing ruffles of
old lace —which, it seems, are a violation
of the sumptuary laws of the court of
Queen Victoria—were conducted by an
official to a side Toom the other day,
where the obnoxious decorations were
cut from their wrists before they were
permitted to appear iu the presence of
royalty.
