TfJBSPAY. MARCH 30, 187i>.
—The undertaker* here aro complain
ing of doll times.—Chattanooga Timet.
Times were dnll with the undertaker*
immediately after the subsidence of
Noah's flood, and yours could not have
fallen far abort of it.
Ton Washington Republican intimates
that an effort is preparing to make a olean
■weep of the elective offices of the Sen
ate, including the Publio Printer. It in
even asserted that the olerkship will be
given as a balm to the wounded feelings
of Fincbback.
A raw years ago the authorities of Bos
ton agreed that they could inour no debt
whioh they (could not pay the same year.
Aa a consequence taxes have been reduced
ten per cent, and more than one million
of dollars of the municipal debt has boon
paid off. In the moantime mauy substan
tial improvements have bto.1 made.
Other cities might find it profitable to
imitate this example.
—The Supreme Court has decided not
to render a decision on the * ‘Enforce*
nieut-aot coho” this term of the court, but
will embrace the “Grant parish cane" in
the opinion to be delivered at the next
term of tho court.—New York UeraUl.
This determination will not at all sur
prise the country. IJut it may be sur
prised if a further postponement in not
roeolved upon at tho next term of the
court.
Oun total cotton production for the
last throe years roachoH the enormous
aggregate of 11,750,000 bales, worth
about $725,000,000. But the cotton
Htates htvo not been enriched to tho
amount of a dollar within those tbreo
years, notwithstanding this immense pro
duction. It would havo made exception
ally rioh and prosperous any country or
auction producing its own meat nnd
breadstuff*, but tho hundreds of millions
of dollars for which the Houthorn cotton
crop is anuualiy sold nre expended in the
purchase of agricultural products nnd
manufactured goods which we could make
bore cheaper than they are roado else
where and sold hero. Is not this a “tiue
bill ”?
Tax difficulty between Col. Middleton,
editor of tho Meridian Timet, nnd Mr.
Love, editor of the Cilittn, which ro„
suited in tho death of tho former, appears
to htvo Ik on cauuod by n joke and tlio
refusal of Mr. Lovo to take it an such.
Probably tho parties were not on such
terms as to admit of such joking. We
can only account for Mr. Love's sensi
tiveness iu this way, for most editors
would only have laughed at the remark
which offended him. Tho Timet had
stated that Mr. Love hail climbed a pole
at tho court-hotiHO to look into tho tiro.* s-
ing-room of tho ladica of tho Helen
D'Este troupe, and thia ao offended Love
that he struck Middleton, and tho fatal
piatol shooting followed. Such personal
joking between editors is, of course,
silly nnd uudignified, but it is downright
folly to engage iu personal combats on
aocouut of it.
In tho United Hinton Circuit Court at
81. Louis on Wednesday morniog, Judge
Dillon rend an act paused by Congress,
aud approved March 4th, a copy of which
he had received from Judge Miller, of
the United Htates Supreme Court. Tho
act n quostiou enlarges the jurisdiction
of the United Btatos Courts, permitting a
citizen of one Htnto to bring n suit, in
casus ariaiug under tho Ooustitution, in a
Htute of whioh he is uot an inhabit
ant, against a citizen of another Htato.
Bo that a oitizuu of Illinois can bring
a suit iu the Uuitod Htates Court in Mis
souri against u citizen of Georgia. Ac'
0 irdiug to previous euaotmeuts, the
party bringing such a Miit would bo re
quired to be a resident of Missouri.
Judge Dillon B*id the act had the same
provisions iu relation to tho waiving of
juries, and that it would doubtless have an
important boariug on oases to be tried in
the Uuited Htates Courts. The Constitu
tion of the United States says that the
judicial power of the goueral government
■hall extend to oases “between citizens
of different Btatea,” without farther
apocifiostions.
WE CONDOLE HUH THEN.
Our ooteuipurarioM of tho proas in all
the cities in which the Cun-Can perform
ers have lately exbibited, are very out
spoken aud iudiguant in deuouuciug the
indecency aud immorality of tho per
formance. We notice that our brethren
apeak from personal observation. They
would uot take any hearsay about a mat
ter of this kind, but each oue went for
hitusolf, aud thuroforo speaks from per
sonal knowledge. They seem to have
been accommodated with frout boats and
with opera glasses powerful enough to
tako in the whole or nny part of the at ago.
They doubtless anticipated a prim and
rigidly moral performance like those of
the “Old Folks’ Concerts,” or a religious
drama like “Pilgrim’s Progress," and had
worked themselves up to a proper frame
of mind for reporting an exhibition of nn
elevating character. They had also
deluded the publio iuto simi
lar auticipstious, aud this accounts'
for tho great crowds reported as every
where iu attcudunoe. This moves us to
offer to our editorial brothrep our con
dolence in their groat disappointment,
far bitterly disappointed they must surely j
bavo been. Wo wonder they did not rush
out of the ball before tho first round of
indecent dancing was over, and hurry up
the “city fathers" aud the police to sup
press tho damoruli/.ing exhibition. (Of
o°nn»e nouo of the “fathers” know any-
thiug about it.) But they heroically
stood it out, and their patience under
such trying oircuun t.iuee* is what most
elicits our admiration. Wa almost regret
that wo failed to go ourself, and thus
wiu a share in the reputation for heroic
ouduranco won by our brethren ou those
occasions—especially as their indignant
denunciations siuco the pcrforinauoes
convince us that if wo should hereafter
“want to see the folly of it too,” we will
have to “go it alone” of all the editors in
see ion.
ANOTHER BHOOTIMU CASE.
Columbus is gaining a moat unenviable
notoriety for shooting end violence, and
thia because her good citizens, though
greatly in the majority, tacitly permit
crime, and are most conservative in their
denunciation of the lawless. Bravos are
virtually our locnl rulers, though
our elective officer i are uneqnaled for vir-
tue and courage, yet armed ruf
fians have been for a long time tho open
opponents of law and order. Many weeks
have not elapsed since Captain Marphy
was shot down in our streets. Since then
the knife and ballet have been buqr with
other live*, and only tbo poverty of two
murderers prevents thoir walking onr
Hi reels on bail. Last night a man noted
for the recklessness of his life attaokod
Captain Caah and his brother. Aided by
a companion he wounded both. The rash
man's owu lifo was the penalty of his
reckless temerity, llis companion, who
is reported to bear a good character in
Alabama, escaped, we learn, without in
jury.
Ho goes on the story of blood, and it
seema as if the end had not yet corno. In
tho name of the God of the universe, is
this thing to lost ? Is there never to
oome a day when peaceful eitizeus can
wulk the streets w ithont arms, feeling se
cure in the majesty of the law ? Wo be
lieve the day ia nearing; for the good
citizens must oven now be drivon to dos-
peration ; even now must feel the horrible
oulrago of shooting down the officers of
tho law.
If the prayod-for peace is ever to come
—if prosperity is ever to return to this
land—if capital is to seek investment
hero, and labor find here its home—life
must bo protected, and the laws mast be r
enforced. This can never bo done unless
the good people rise in their might, and,
as in California, crash out lawleasnesa by
tbo most stringent meoauroe. Tho oyes
of the world are turned to America, and
the Huutheru problem still waits solution
iu tbo Htates. It is horrible to know the
livos of good citizens are ever iu dangor ;
it is simply damnable that tho officers of
tho law aro to bo alain and wonndod,
We demand, in the name of peace and
justice, that the good citizens givo ex
pression to their horror of the conduct of
armed bravos, who, not satisfied with
making lifo unsafe, boldly attack tho very
officers of tho law. 0.
WHAT IT WAN CALLED FOR.
The extra Mwftion of the United Htnlos
Senate has adjourned, aud if it had any
important biiHiuess before it of a nature
requiring nn extra aeasion, the public has
yet to learn what it was. It acted npon a
few nominations by the President, but
this might have been done in Executive
session, and would havo consumed only a
few hours. Its action waa wholly unim
portant, and only politically significant on
aoconnt of tho Louisiana resolution. The
fact cannot now be oonoealed, in view of
the results of tbenession, that this Louisi
ana matter waa tho sole object of tho call.
The President wanted an endorsement of
his coarse; ho knew that he oonld not ob
tain it by the eoneurrent notion of the two
branches, aud therefore he sought it at the
tho handH of the Henato alone. Whether
ho ought to be satisfied with the endorse
ment whioh he got, ia a debatable ques
tion. We notice that soma prominent
Republican papers (the Now York Timet,
for instance) contend that tho Henato
only approved tho President’s notion in
maintaining ponce in Louisiana last sum
mer, without expressing any opinion npon
the legality or propriety of his other acta
touching that Btate. The Philadelphia
Inquirer, another Republican paper,
tliinka that his course even in that niattor
was unjustifiable and should not have
boon approved by the Senate. But tho
Republican press generally are gleeful
over tho asRnrance that the adoption of
the Lonisiuna resolution harmonized the
party by the removal of a disturbing
element. It is hard to understand the
philosophy of this. If tho question of the
right of the President to force a Gov
ernor on the people of a State, as
Kollogg was forced ou tho State of
Louisiana moro than two yeara ago,
bus beou settled, how has it beeu set
tled? Aro the people of the country sat
isfied that Gen. Grant will not assume
such a responsibility again whenever the
interests of his party seem to reqnire it ?
lias he not given evidence that he will
do so by hia recent messago asking Con
gress to authorize him to remove Gar-
laud as Governor of Arkansas and inatal
Brooks ? Iu reference to tho action of
lost summer, the Senatorial resolution
is a full endorsement of the President
and a backing down of those Republi
cans who last year participated in indig
nation mootings to condemn hia course.
The Senate's Louisiana resolution ^an
only harmonize the ltopnblioan party by
bringing back its rebellions mombers to
the foot of the President and making
him moro completely waster of the situ
ation than ho was before. It is an ad
vantage gained by Grant in the skirmish
preceding tho contest for a third term,
and if it has strengthened the party at
all, it has only strengthened it with Grant
as its head aud leader.
Tun latest New Orleans papers express
tho opiuion that the danger of a destruc
tive overflow of the lower Mississippi
from floods now coming down the upper
rivers, is about over. This opinion is
based upon tho last reports from the
tributary rivers.
Tim Henry Couuty (Ala.) Register of
lust week states, on the authority of a
goutleman just from Jackson county,
Florida, that there is iu that county
plenty of cotton up aud growing finely.
We believe it has beou too wot down
there to plant corn early.
Flood In Early and Calhoun Counties
From Col. It. O. Dunlap, of Early coun
ty, wo learn that a disastrous fl-.od oc
curred last Friday night, doing a vast
deal of daumgo along tho wuter couthon
iu Early and Culhonn counties. Col.
Dunlap's mill data was waahod away; ho
was that of Mrs. R. D. Ivey, seven milos
below, and that at Jones’ mill, noar Blake*
ly. The mill at Milford, in Baker county,
was completely washed away, also the
j bridge at that place. Bowers’ mill, in the
sumo county, is also gone, and Dr. Hand's
j mill, on the Chickasawhstchie, is under
wetcr. The streams wore higher than
they were ever known to be before. Our
I information is that not a mill ia Early
1 county cau turn a wheel, on acoount of
tho dams all being gone.— Macon Tel.
Baektag In Texan.
Tho correspondent of tho Cincinnati
Commercial, writing from Dallas, nays:
There is no usury law in Texas, and
money goes for wh«t it will bring. It
firings a good deal in dollar*. Two, throe,
four and fivo per cent, a month aro the
ruling rates to day. I was told of men
who had borrowed money at five per cent,
a month, and built business houses with
it, oxpoutiRg largo gains. Business firms
doing busimss in banks readily piy their
banks two per cent, a month, and con*
sider it an aoj.tnmodatiou and tho rales
reasonably lo*. The banks can and do
lend all they have to their rugiilur cus-
totnois at that rate. An outsider hen to
pay more.
The banks in that two per cent, coun
try are, of course, making a good thing
of it. I hesr of a bank at Paris, which
went into operation eighteen months ago
with a capital of $50,000, and now has a
orpins of $85,000 after paying all ex
penses. That is h indsome. I hear of
another at Waco, two years in business,
with a capital of $75,000, whioh now has
a surplus of $50,000.
In business houses at Dallas I saw
printed notes for those purchasing goods
on time, bearing two per cent, a mouth
interest. Inde d, that is theorliuAry fig
ure for first-class paper, and the demand
is far in excess of the supply. What do
yon think of that? No wonder tho cry
comes up for “moro money.” To have
to pay two and three per coat, a month
for money would inako an inflationist out
of most anybody.
The Best Iiion in the World.—Wo
were yoaterdsy shown a chain made of
onohundred and fifty nails, each nail for
ming a link. These nails wore bent into
links while they w ore cold. They were
made at the nail factory, iu this place.
The pliability of the iron, in this section,
while either cold or hot duiuotiHtrnies its
superiority, being pronounced by compe
tent judges to bo the finest in tho world.
There aro throe kinds of iron: the cold
short, the red short, and tho neutral.
Iron of the tint kind will not bend while
cold, but will do so whi'.o hot; iron of
the second kind will not beud while hot,
but will while cold ; but iron of tho third
kind will bond wbilo either cold or hot.
Of such ns tho lost mentioned is the iron
in this section. Our iron alone ought to
and will eventually make us tho richest
people in tho world.—llomc Commercial.
Dn. Lovia Pierce.—This venerable di
vine, wo regret to loarn, was quite .'lick
for u fow days Iho first of tho week. There
seotuod to bo a general prostration of the
system, nnd anxious fears wuro enter
tained by liis friends of a serious spoil.
We were glad to learn afterward l that lie
was rapidly improving, and trust that ere
this wonted vigor lias returnod.
We loam that Dr. Pierce will celebrate
tho ninety-first anniversary of his birth
by n family reunion at Sunshine on
Wodnesdny before tho fourth Sunday iu
this month. - -Sparta Timet.
—Ishlsrtoo Eherling, adopted daughter
of Esquimaux Joe and Haunuh Eberling,
died nt Groton, Conn., Thursday, agod
nine yonrs. Capt. Hall, the Arctic explor
er, bought her of her parents when she
was nn infant, giving a snow sled for
hor. Bho was on tho ice with Tyson and
his party 1 !l<* days, having au experience
which has probably nover fallen to anoth
er of her years.
In Re-Morse.—All our exchanges arc
commenting ou the fact that everybody
connected with tho Beooher affair has
been kissed, oxcept Bowen and Mrs.
Beecher ; and some have oven gono so far
us to suggest that they ki«s each other,
and make it even. But wo have soon no
