Noting Williamee Chandler's recent

Washington Post is reminded that "he
prepared some in 1876-7, which, if we re

was their true value. We may say, how
ever, that in view of the circumstances
then existing, we have always thought
that Mr. Hayes was ungrateful. He ought
to have taken those opinions at any price."
In our Atlanta special of yesterday, in
reference to the decisions of the Supreme
Court, it was stated that the Central Rail
road Company, through its counsel, Gene
ral Lawton, in the case against the Rail
road Commission, had responded to the
remarks of the court. This, we are in
formed, was a mistake, as the Central is
in no way a party to that case; the eon
struction of the Georgia Railroad charter
is alone involved, and General Lawton
was assisting Major Cumming In repre
senting that corporation,
The Georgia llailroad Case.
The issue in the case ot the
Georgia Railroad versus the Railroad
Commission, which arose out ol an ap
plication last spring by the Georgia Rail
road aud Banking Company and William
M. Wadley, lessee, for an injunction to
restrain the Commissioners from enlorc jug
certain rates of freight a# against the
Georgia Railroad, was a purely constitu
tional one, growing out of the terms of the
charter of the Georgia Railroad.
Counsel for the company held that, as
its charter permitted a charge of not more
than fifty cents per hundred pounds per
hundred miles and live cents per mile pas
senger tariff, the Commission, although
authorized by the Legislature, had no
right to .enforce lower rates for the ser
vices of the company. On trial before
Judge Simmons. at Macon, the applica
tion for an injunction was refused, aud on
apjieal to the Supreme Court that body,
by a practically unanimous decision, on
Tuesday affirmed the judgment of the
court below.
Our views ujion the wisdom or justice
ot employing the services of a Railroad
Commission, clothed with the powers of
the laxly that now virtually controls
the railroads of Georgia, have been so
plainly aud so repeatedly expressed, that
it is needless to advert to the subject
again.
The case just decided, however, present
ed so square an issue as to the inviola
bility or contracts that it is difficult, while
conceding the houesty and'sincerity of
the honorable court, to see how the recon
cilability of the acts creating the Commis
sion and" the vested rights of the Georgia
Railroad Company could be so readily de
termined. The case will, doubt
less, go to the Supreme Court of the
United States for final adjudication.
Whether the highest tribunal of the land
w ill agree with the Georgia courts as to
the scope of the powers of the Commis
sion, remains to be seen, but its final judg
ment will le needed to determine the
quest ion.
Should that judgment be adverse to
the appellant, there will l>e nothing left
but to accept the legality of the Commis
sion and- its extraordinary powers, but
until such judgment is rendered, it is the
right of those who doubt the usefulness
of the Commission aud the wisdom of its
creation to trust to the calm reason of the
court of final appeal for the justification
or resolution of snch doubts.
Teeumseh Sherman detailed Col. John
11. Tourtellotte to’play flunkey to Lome
and Louise while on tlieir recent tour
through the United States. The British
Minister and his daughter, with Miss
Sherman.are now at Bideau Hall, Ottawa,
the guests of the Marquis. A gushing
contemporary remarks; “The Marquis,
with true British hospitality, has set out
to entertain ihe daughter of his American
host by inaugurating the most character
istic festivities of the Dominion. These
are the trifling international amenities
which in the end do most to cement good
feeling and permanent comity.’’ That a
British gentleman should act as such in
his own house should not call for such de
monstrative gush. There are fifty million
people in this broad land aud Miss Sher
man is just one of them. It’s a matter of
iudifference to forty-nine million nine hun
dred and ninety-niuc thousand Americans
whether the daughter of the General of
the army takes tea with Lome or not.
It will l>e remembered that the defense
in the star route eases have held among
other things that the Department of Jus
tice, through its agents, Fall and Nelson
who certainly were connected with the
department), attempted to bribe Juror
Brown In another criminal
trial ol last spring, kuowu as the “banco
case," Juror Brown was equally con
vinced of the innocence of the accused,
and thereby secured disagreement against
a majority of the jury. The grand jury
of the district has now indicted the con
scientious juror for selling his suffrage
in the banco case for the somewhat mea
gre sum of eight dollars. Nelson being in
dicted for giving him the money, which,
it is claimed, Fall brought on front New
York parties. Here are three of Colonel
Ingersoii’s affiants.
Colonel Stewart has sent home to Eng
land a detailed account of the False
Prophet of the Soudan, which completely
knoeks on the head the pretensions that
he was a mulatto barber, hailing from the
western part of Pennsylvania. Accord
ing to Col. Stew art he is an illiterate Don
golian, who can barely write
but who gullied the
Moh;unmcd au religion. Ho is head of an
order 'of Dervishes and displays great
executive ability in uniting and govern
ing the quarrelsome tribes of the Soudan.
His following, according to Col. Stewart’s
estimate, now reaches 338,000 tribesmen,
and the loss of life consequent upon the
insurrection amounted to about 0,000
Egyptians and 50,000 rebels. It is proba
ble these numbers are greatly exagger
ated.
The New Y’ork Court of Appeals has
given an interesting decision about the
right ot children to play on the public
sidewalks. A little girl was jumping
rope, and in moving backward she fell
into an open area in the sidewalk. Dam
ages for her injuries were sought by suit
against the owner of the property, and ob
tained. On appeal, the verdict was sus
tained, and the owner must pay. The de
fendant submitted that the child was
guilty of contributory negligence, and
also that playing on the sidewalk was not
a legitimate use of it. The court decided
that one who passes along a sidewalk has
a right to presume that it is safe, and
likewise that “it is not unlawful, wrong
or negligent for children, on the sidewalk,
to play.” The latter impression has pre
vailed for many generations.
The decree regulating the liquor traffic
in Russia, recently signed by the Em
peror, is oue of the most stringent charac
ter. There is to be only one liquor shop
in a village, and where two or three vil
lages are almost contiguous one shop
must suffice for their combined inhabi
tants. The publican must be a native of
the place, appointed and paid by the
Common Council, and must sell food as
well as liquor. If he al.ows any person
to get drunk he is liable not only to dis
missal, but to fine and imprisonment, If
any Russian village is reported to the
authorities as addicted to drunkenness
the sale of liquor may be interdicted for
as long a period as may seem necessary.
The Bt. Petersburg Goto*, having dared
to mildly criticise the condition of public
affairs in Russia, and to suggest that pos
sibly some additional reforms might prove
acceptable, has been suspended for six
months, whieh is equivalent to its entire
confiscation. The Czar has issued an
ukase appointing a commission to exam
ine into the laws relating to Jews, and to
prepare a report, which will be submitted
to the legislative department.
The House expended so much time in
w indy aud profitless discussion of the
tariff that important measures, chief
among which is the river and harbor bill,
are lelYvinacted upon. The last week of
the session crowns the imbecility of
Robeson’s majority.
The upshot of all the noisy talk in Con
gress is likely to be the passage of the
humbugging measure known ps the inter
nal revenue reduction bill. The tariff
will likely remain as it is, which is just
what its beneficiaries want, if they can’t
get more pap for their "infants."
If. as seems probable, the present Con
gress adjourns without action upon the
tariff, the contest for the Speakership of
the next House will become |import
ant. With Mr. Carlisle in the chair, the
people would be assured fair p^ay.
The G. O. P. needs a diversion, and ac
cordingly Brewster will set the minions

Tlie Senate Tariff Bill.
This measure, w hich will be the basis
of any reduction of taxation made by the
present Congress," is now in the hands of
a conference committee. It includes
the repeal of taxes on bank de
posits, capital, checks, drafts aud
vouchers, and on watches, perfu
mery and patent medicines. It reduces
the annual tax on wholesale dealers in
leaf tobacco from $25 to *l2, on cigar aud
tobaeco nftmufacturers, from $lO to $6,
and similar reductions in favor of tobacco
peddlers. It reduces the annual tax on re
tail dealers in leaf tobacco from SSOO to
$250, with an additional tax of SO cents on
each dollar of monthly sales in excess of
the rate of SSOO per annum. Producers
can sell their own growth of tobacco at
retail to consumers to an amount not ex
ceeding SIOO annually. Snuff and manu
factured tobacco reduced from 16 to IS
cents per pound, aud cigars from $6 to $3
per 1.000. Cigarettes (.3 pounds per 1,000)
from $1 75 to 50 cents per 1.000, and above
that weight from $6 to $3 per 1,000.
Other reductions in the bill are—steel
rails from S2B j>er ton to sls 68, 1-10 per
cent, on tin plates, 20 per cent, on various
iron and steel manufactures, J-4 per cent,
on bar irou, 1 cent per pound on Russia
sheet irou, Xo.J3 sugar and below, 18 per
cent., and higlK-T grades still more, books
from 25 i>er cent, to 15 per cent., and books
in foreign languages free, 20 per cent. on
salt and gives a drawback on salt used in
curing meat and fish. The rates are re
duced on wools, silk and some fomi9 or
cottons ami woolens. The free list is
largely increased by jute butts, chemicals
and sundries. The bill makes a slight re
duction in pig iron and non® on iron ore.
Copper ore is 2}-j instead of 3 cents. The
rates on steel blooms are advanced. The
duty of $25 jier ton ou raw hemp is re
tained, anil also the duties on most kinds
of iron aud steel manufacture.
Literary Notes.
We have received from Azel Ames, Jr.,
Secretary of the American Public Health
Association,volume VII., containing pub
lic health papers and reports presented at
the ninth annual meeting of the Ameri
can Health Association, which was held
in Savannah, November 28 to December
3, 1881, and containing an abstract of the
record of the proceedings. The papers
upon the public health and kindred sub
jects which were presented at that meet
ing and which were so interesting to the
enlightened of this community, are here all
gathered, making a large volume of four
hundred and forty-six pages, beautifully
priuted and bound from the publishing
house of Houghton, Miftin & Cos., Boston.
The volume contains, among other Inter
esting rtqiorts and scienlitie papers, the
President’s (Dr. Charles B. White) ad
dress, the addresses of Captain George A.
Mercer and Dr. Richard T. Nunn, and
very interesting treatises on the “Rise aud
Progress of National Hygiene," “National
and International Sanitary Jurispru
dence," “Railroad Sanitation,” “Effects
of Tobacco on Youths,” “Impure Water
and Old Dangers.” and various other ques
tions of national importance in a sani
tary point of view. It will certainly
prove a valuable addition to the library
of the sanitarian.
Novels —The Good aml the Bad.
Editor Morniwj Metes: The daring
crimes nowadays, such as train robbing,
bank robbing in broad daylight, and oth
ers similarly audacious, Iteing charged
partly to the baneful effects of reading
“dime" novels, brings up the subject of
novels. It has not been many years since
they were excluded from many homes.
And it cannot le denied that the old time
fictions were rather ideal and romantic.
The hero was a lofty Adonis of unlimited
prowess, and the heroine was an angelic
paragon, and the former won her through
marvelous adventures and exploits which
would not have been unworthy of Baron
Munchausen. The tendency of snob read
ing was to mislead the young; to cause
them to liojiC to find, for husbands and
wives, what does not exist—perfection.
The world owes to Thackeray the cor
rection of this pernicious, stilted fiction.
He assailed it with tremendous temerity
by writing a novel without a hero, where
upon the literary world fell down and
worshiiHxl him ’for his truly wonderful
achievement. He wrote as if he believed
that “truth is stranger than fiction,” and
hence that novelists need only strive to
invent life-like stories. In passing, we
offer as an example the life and career •of
Moses, which eclipses any character to In
fo und in novels.]
He heJfJ-fljSit people may worthily love
and be loved without being endowed w T ith
iMI-Yiuiug like perfection. He advises that
those looking to matrimony should seak
frankness and sincerity,* rather than
greatness and splendid beauty. Some of
liis most celebrated contemporaries
promptly imitated his simple manner of
novels. Mrs. Lewes wrote a very suc
cessful one called “Adam Bede," making
the hero, not a Grand Duke nor an Ameri
can bondholder, but a handsome young
carpenter. Also Charlotte Bronte and
Augusta Evans each wrote in thi6 vein.
Now that common sense has been in
fused into the novels of respectable authors,
the old prejudice against this kind of
reading is giving way. Great modern
statesmen not oulv read them but have
written them—as £)israeli and Bulwer—
a clergyman, too, as Rev. Charles Kings
ley. Young men take to them almost as
readily as to cigars; and young ladies as
to decorative raiment, It is important,
then, to discuss them, w liich to select,
>etc. There is no better antidote against
trashy aud vile fictions than to begin to
read good ones—those in which useful
instruction is blended with the love
storv.
Some novels are depositories of particu
lar information. Scott’s give graphic
pictures of old English and Scottish life,
and of the feudal times. Miss Edge
worth’s of good society in our fatherland
some generations bygone; and the ten
dency is to tone up the manners and
morals. Mrs. Opie wrote some excellent
moral tales. Cooper and Marryatt depict
life on board ship, and hence are edifying
to “land lubbers,” as sailors call ’ us.
Cooper has also given kind and pleasant
accounts of the red men before the supe
rior race ruined them; see •• r she Last of
the Mohicans,” Bulwer’s “Last Days of
Pompeii" describes liow the Romans lived,
their religious customs, gladiatorial con
tests, etc., winding tip in a sublime
tragedy, an eruption of Vesuvius—a
very interesting work. The writings of
Dickens and Thackeray will render the
reader almost as familiar with life in
town and country in England as if he had
lived there. No American had described
the colonial life of old Virginia so
well as Thackeray, the Englishman, in
his novel, “The Virginians.” Mrs. Mary
E. Bryan’s portrayal of the indignation of
Southern planters and their families
against the carpet-baggers is one of the
most vivid ever Written. It wiji be found
in her novel. “Wild Work.” Some of
Charles Lever's contain amusing accounts
of army life; “Joseph 11. and His Court”
paints the heavy cares and re
sponsibilities of a King. Dick
ens’ “Martin Chuzzlewit” is a severe
satire on American manners, etc.,
and should be consulted by Americans as
a wholesome lesson—as we would take
physic. A novel need not be a long one
to have merit, for one of the liest of all is
“Christie Johnstone,” by Charles Reade,
which is only of small, quarter size, and
yet in it two pairs of lovers are success
fully carried through to matrimony. A
celebrated novel haying been written
without a hero.t harles Kingsley wrote one
without a Heroine, but it had no success,
from which it may lie claimed that men
think a great deal morf of the sex than
they do of themselves. Edgar A. Poe
could write a thrilling story without hero
or heroine, as may Ik* found in his prize
6tory of “The Gold Bug.”
Some authors have written novels to ef
fect certain ends or purposes. Thus “The
Wandering Jew,” by Eugene Sue, is a
harrowing exposure of the cunning, ava
rice and power of the Jesuits; and it is
probable that this powerful book has con
tributed to arousing some of the European
governments to oppose this secret reli
gious order, as they are doing.
The broad burlesque of Don Quixote
was leveled at knight errantry, which the
author thought bad gone far enough.
Dickens wrote one to break up cruelty in
boarding schools, and another to show the
cruelty that may be practiced by a fac
tory boss. Charles Reade wrote fictions
to ventilate the abuse of personal liberty
which lunatic asylums afforded, and to
expose the bitter feelings of the striking
class. Miss Martineau wrote stories
which contain food for deep thought
choosing this method of conveying and
illustrating her views of political economy,
The foregoing gives only a few hints and
names. Those who have the time, means
and inclination to read novels, ought to
get lists of good ones from competent per.
sons. It is truly pitiable foe the young to
be wasting time and vitiatifig their minds
with inane, contemptible productions,
when there are a plenty that contain in
struction with amusement. X.

The Republican party cuts a beautiful

intimidated by monopolies, aud proposes
to obev monopoly rather than the people

If Cougress adjourns ou Sunday uext

as well conclude that its day ot service is
done, and that a disappointed and deluded

for which no remorse will avail, and for
which those who are responsible will
never cease to crave the popular forget

at home, while those which ought to lie
in the oyster business are waiting their
inevitable fate in deep waters, 'tlie loss

It is certainly far better that the Dem

split—and split across the middle, if need
be—by the tariff' issue, for want of a

i the principle of anti-protection, than
that it should lie held together only lv
the cement of a common greed of power
and patronage. The A’etrs heartily con
curs with the New York B’orW that if
Dem-icracv means anything more than
“a dislike of seeing Republicans in
office,” it means the maintenance of
j principles, one of which is the right of
every man freely to labor and freely to
exchange the products of his labor for
the objects of bis desire, and that if those
who now call themselves Democrats can
not unite upon this principle in opposi
tion to the whole system of protection, it
■ is time thev should separate and array

Tea has been grown in India since 1842.
The chief seat of its growth is in Assam,
though it is also cultivated in Bengal
proper. Its manipulation and cure are
done by machinery and not by hand, as in

considered cheaper than China tea, and is
coming to be largely used in this country.
The owner of a New" Haven fac
tory lioasted that he had made |q a single
year something like $72,000. On investi
gation it was found that large numbers
of boys from eight to twelve years of age

a day, and that they were compelled to
work ten hours a day in order to earn
that amount. The faces of these child
ren were “colorless.”
“Mrs. Rooney,” the female chimpanzee

a reputation for herself for her dexterous
use of a handkerchief. “Mrs. Rooney’’ at

The organist at Westminster Abbey has
invented anew kind of piano, which he
calls the vocalion. With one key-board,
it imitates at the same time the metallic
tones of the ordinary instrument and the
strains of the human voice. It is manu
factured in four sizes, the largest being
full and sonorous enough for a cathedral.
Its superiority to the American organ
is claimed by the English, and it has been
adopted by the Kirk in Scotland.
The new observatory at Columbia Col
lege, New York, will have a paper dome,
the fourth one erected in the world. Pa
per domes are an American invention,
being made only by Waters & Sons, of
Troy, N. Y.. the paper boat builders. The
three now in use are at the Polytechnic
Institute, Troy, at West Point and at Be
loit College. They wear well, and if kept
well covered with shellac, seem imper
vious to damage by wind or Water.
The subscription to the Darwin memo
rial has awakened so much enthusiasm in
Sweden that the local committee there
formed has received contributions from no
less than 1,400 persons, including all sorts

stress, the sums varying from £5 to 2

It was discovered by a Bloomington
physician, the other day, that the internal
organs of Samuel Fuchs, aged twenty,

having taken sugar of lead in mistake for
ammonia. He telegraphed to Hong Kong
for a doctor, who came to the office and
sent him advice tay cable, which resulted
in bis recovery. The distance is about

that a doctor has prescribed for a patient
iuO miles away.
A nautical mile, or an English admiral
ty knot, is 6,080 feet. The United States
coast survey, always most accurate in
such things, has adopted 1853.248 metres,
or 6080.27 feet as the standard mile, which
Is popularly “a minute of latitude,” but
more accurately the sixtieth part ot a
degree on the great circle of a sphere
whose surface is equal to the surface of
the earth. A miuute of latitude, accord
ing to the head of the coast survey, would
be 1861.655 metres at the poles, and 1842.-
787 metres at the equator. One miuute of
the equator would be 1855.345 metres, or
6087.15 feet.

own apartments, and resorted to a tine bit
of strategy to accomplish her ends. Stay
ing at the same hotel as the beauty, she
arrayed herself in the cap and apron of
one of the bell girls on duty, and patiently
waited for a call to attend the room. In
a short time there was a note to be car
ried. Fortunately she was admitted, aud
stood waiting until the note was read aud
any answer to be given. The pretended
l>ell girl-returned, uml is still raving over
the “marvelous beauty of the peerless
Langtry.”
The journalists in Washington are en-
that is told at the expense
of a New England Congressman, a conn
try lawyer, one of that class of people
who imagine that the function of every
newspaper man, whether he lie reporter,
editor or stockholder, is to “pick up
items.” This gentleman was introduced
some time ago to Mr. Haskell, whose in
come as one of the proprietors of the Bos
ton Herald runs into four ciphers, aud is
said to have a very comfortable figure in
front of them. "Ah,” said he, benevo
lently, “glad to see you, Mr. Haskell,
You’re down here, 1 suppose, picking up
a few items for your paper.”
Some thousands of persons assembled
in the neighliorhood of the Adelphi Hotel.
Liverpool, to witness Mr. Ewing Bishop,
well known in connection with thought
reading entertainments, take up a chal

The pin was hiddeii wjiile Mr. Bishop re
mained in the hotel in the custody of a’
local clergyman. At 1 o’clock Mr. Bishop
came out ol the hotel blindfolded and
