Tbr assertion that the strikers on the
railways have been driven to their violent
aota by anoh a rednction in their wages
a* left them “not enough to live on” i*
utterly at varianoe with the faots in the
oaae. The Tribune yesterday showed
that the engineers and firemen on the
New York and Pennaylvania lines have
atruok against rates of payment which are
actually 36 per cent, higher than tbe
same classes of railwaymen reooived in
I860, while the average of prices of the

many articles which twenty years ago
worn regarded ns luxuries, such as ooffee,
tea and tobaooo) are but 7 per cent,
higher than in I860.
Col. John A. Jorox, who has been in
oarcerated for aome time in the Miasouri
penitentiary for his own crooked whiskey
ains, and those of Avery, Baboook and
other Hepnblioana of “sound principles,”
says, in proapeot of bis release, whioh i*
believed to be near : “I shall go to New
York to live and if I have auy documents
or information of valne, as so often
alleged, I shall be heard from through the
press of that city. I have suffered enongh
from the malevolence of those who, of
all others, should have befriended me,
and, when onoe more at liberty, I intend
that the oonntry at large shall know all
tbe faots oonneoted with my imprison
ment, the oanse and motives leading
thereto." Joyce asserts that Avery onoe
told him that if be would give him and
Baboook $6,000 he would aeoure his re
lease. He deolined to negotiate, and will
doubtless make it hot for Avery, Baboook,
and several other notables, when he gets
out.
Tn* street arabe of St. Louis, like their
compatriots everywhere, are blessed with
an abundanoo of mother wit. While the

capitalists,” the gamins were alBo having
their fnn. Bays the Rejmblican ;
A lot of ragged urohina, to the num

banner, on whioh was Inscribed the
words:

The New York Herald every now end
then exhibits its true inwardness by bints
that the Democratic party is dropping to
pieces. For its purpose it qnotee the
mere pet<7 differences whioh are readily
dosed when there is any oooasion for
onion. To-day the party is stronger than
at any time in its history. All ita ele
ments ate more firmly united than even
in the days of its highest triumphs.
Never were ita prospects brighter for re
gaining possession of the Government.
It has the House and almost tbe Senate—
virtually under control—and tbe Bepubli
cat: President has been compelled to
adopt its policy as tbe only national one.
The wisdom of following this course is ex
emplified daily, and never more strongly
than the past two weeks. Had Packard
and Chamberlain been sustained by Gov
ernment troops as during the rale of
Grant, the people of South Carolina and
Louisiana would have united in
the late strike for the simple
purpose of driving tbe usurper from pow
er. Thus we would have bad strife in tbe
South, where now all is peace and order.
Of oonrse bad conditions been altered,
the troops, as now, would have been sent
off to quell the rioter* in the Northern
States, snd the people, ss strikers, would
have foroed the Radicals from tbe place*
whioh they held for a time by fraud and
bayonets, and the whole trouble would be
repeated. Mr. Hayes, however, deemed
it wise and prudent, as he was compelled
to aooept the inevitable, to pursue the
line marked ont by National Democracy,
and qniet reigns over the land, and troops
can well be spared to crush the Northern
rebellion. Does all this show that Dem
ocracy is weakening '< Are they not in
dubitable proofs that the organization is
growing and its principles impressed more
durably in the minds and sffeotions of tbe
people?
THE MEW MIMIUTEE TO BRAZIL-
Hon. Henry W. Hilliard was born in
Cumberland county, North Carolina, in
1808. He was admitted to the bar at Ath
ens, Ga.,in 1829. Io July,1880 Mr. Lamar
retired from tho Columbus Enqtiibzb,
having sold his interest to Mr. James Van
Ness, and in November Mr. Marks sold
his interest to Messrs. Henry W. Hilliard
and James N. Betbune. He retired from
tho editorial management in February of
1831, and for tbe next three years hold a
professorship in the University of Ala
bama ot Tuscaloosa. Subsequently a*
Montgomery be was editor of the Ala
bama Journal. In 1838 he was eleoted
to the Alabama Legislature from Mont
gomery county, and in 1840 was a dele
gate to tbe Whig National Convention,
and earnestly advooated the nomination'
of Mr. Clay. The next year he was
candidate for Congress, and was
defeated under the “general ticket’ 1
system, though he oarried his
own distriot. In 1842 he was sent ss
charge d'affaires to Belgium, where he
remained two years. In 1846 he was
eleoted to Congress, and served for three
successive terms, at the end of the third
declining a re-election. He was a warm
snpporter of the Compromise measures of
1860. He was a oeudidate on the Fill
more electoral tioket of 186(1, and on the
Bell and Everett tioket of I860. He op
posed secession, but went with his State
after secession was a faot aooompliabed,
and was appointed n Commissioner
to Tennessee from Alabama. For
awhile, in the early period of the
war he commanded as Colonel, Hilliard’s
Ligion, serving in East Tennessee, most
of the troops being from Alabama. In
1802 he removed from Montgomery to
Augusta and resided there until 1878,
when he tooated in Atlanta, and came
here in 1876, where he has sinoe made hia
home. In 1868 he ran for Congress in
tbe Augusta District, and was defeated by
the Republican nominee. He supported
the Greeley movement in 1872. He was
defeated for Congress last year by tbe
regular Democratic nominee in this Dis
triet, he running as an Independent Dein
oorat. Ool. Hilliard, sinoe early life, has
been a minister of the Mothodist Episco
pal Church, Booth, and has often preaohed
in the Columbus oburohe*. He has been
married twioe—to Miss Bedell, sister of
Dr. Bedell, of Harris oounty, and then to
Mrs. Mays, of Montgomery. Ho was an
old time Whig, but sinoe the revolution
has acted with the Democrats.
Col II. has also figured in literature,
having published a volume ot speeches,
in I860, and later, a political novel.
He has ever ranked high aa an aooonv
plished soholar, a debater and among the
leaders of bis party. In manner he is
oonrteoua and polished. The opening of
bis memorial address on the anniversary
of decorating Confederate grave* last
year, we have often thought, represented
fairly his politioal opinion : “Standing
here to-day, I represent tbe South, but
feel, too, that I am an American.”
Tho entire community, will unite in
congratulating him on having obtained
the appointment.
SOUTHERN MAMCrACTUREB.
The following letter, written by stead
ing citizen snd who loves tbe South and
delights in her prosperity, and is doing
all he oen to promote it, only reached os
yesterday. It was not intended for pub
lication, but the sentiments are so just
and foroibly expressed we give it publici
ty, omitting names and dates. We want
to rouse our Southern people to the im
portance of showing the capitalists of
New snd Old England that the proximity
to the cotton field furnishes the very best
opportunities for turning the raw staple
into goods of every variety, BDd that
eventually the South will drive off every
competitor, and that her oapacity of pro
duction is unlimited. We love our sec
tion better then our oonntry. It may be
disloyal but it is true. We mean to prove
things from actual figures, not assert
premises and oonolusions as Mr. Atkinson
has done:
July 30th, 1877.
Editor Enquirer-Bun i
It is with muoh pleasure that I see you
have takenuj>, with* view of prosecuting
it further, the subject of manufactures at
the South. I have long been of opinion
that tbe ootton States oan manufacture
cotton goods muob oheaper than those of
tbe North. Recent events have caused
me to look into the matter more closely,
resulting in the positive oertainty that
the more the subject is investigated, the
more thorough must be tbe oonviotion of
this faot to unprejudiced minds.
Nothing bat deep-rooted prejudice,
coupled with narrow-minded selfishness
has hitherto kept Northern oapltal from
being largely invested in Southern mills.
This state of benightedness, ss it was felt
by far sseing men, must have a limit, and
happily tbe eyes of tbe people are now
being opened to the true condition of
thingB; and if those who are already en
gaged in the manufacturing business at
tbe North still persist in ignoring the
marked advantages we possess in point of
cheapness, to say nothing of other facilities,
such as olimate, being able to work all
the year round, etc., others not now en
gaged in that business will not be slow in
discerning this great field for safe invest
ment, this road to wealth, and will un
doubtedly avail of it. Even Englishmen
ate, sinoe the new “regime,” beginning
to look hitherward. And already we can
see the dawning of a new era of enterprise
and prosperity for the Sontb destined to
culminate in a magnificent future. Keep
placing stern faots before the world, and
the desired result is sure to follow.
Yours truly, .

Emotion or Judoxs.—The Convention
yesterday decided to elect Judges both of
the Supreme and Superior Courts by the

about which there was a great variety of
opinion, and in a way whioh is aooepta-
ble to the people.

A bxoxnt history of American uniforms
brings to light tbe faot that tho gray ot
the Southern Confederacy was the regula
tion dress of the Amerioan armies which
fought at Chippewa and Niagara in 1812,
snd was adopted at West Point in com
memoration of those victories. It is still
quite extensively worn by Northern regi
ment*, and is the prevailing color in all
military aoboola, snd for economy and
quietness ia doubtless preferable to the
bine.
ADVAMTAURB OF THE BOOTH IN
THE OLDEN TIHES.
We oontend that not only now but for
merly Southern mills made money while
those of the North were barely subsisting
or starving. We think we have demon-
atrated the faot already from aotuaf re-
aults, but we mean to show it beyond the
shadow of a possible doubt, and we in
tend also to prove to an absolute oertainty
that Mr, Atkinson, of New England, in
his articles in the New York Herald de
crying Southern manufacture, did not
know what he was talking about, that his
premises were wrong—the mere theoreti
cal speculation of a prejudiced calculator,
who assumed conditions to suit himself,
which are wholly at variance with estab
lished faots, and henoe his whole con
clusion ia falsely drawn, and is a whole
sale fabrication.
This advantage in ootton manufacture
in the South has existed for years. To
show this we quota tbe following extract
from the Bavannah Republican ot Octo
ber, 1848, whioh is pertinent to the point
as demonstrating what was done thirty
years ago, and which can better be re
peated to-day. We thank a friend for the
extraot, which reads as follows:
OKOBOIA KANTTTAGTUBZB.
The Bavannah Republican says, “We
are gratified to learn that the United
States Government has made a contract
with the Milledgeville faotory for delivery
of 800,000 yards of ootton osnaburgs.
Thia oontraot was made after a compari
son by a government agent in New York
of the Milledgeville with other like fabrios
from other manafaotories.
“This is not only a high compliment to
the work done in Milledgeville, but af
fords unquestionable proof of the remark
so frequently made that for obvious reas
ons manufacturing in ootton oan be done
oheaper in Georgia than in the Northern
States.”

Hr. Editor: What do you mean ? Are
you just now suffering from mental ab
erration ? Generally you are lovel-headed,
or supposed to be, but this warm weather
seems to have made you “orotchetty. ”
Just ooosideryour own writing in Wednes
day’s paper in an article on the death of
Warren, the author of “Ten Thousand a
Year “Oily Gammon will be recognized
wherever rascally latrysrs are known.”
There now—tint do settle if. “Rascally
lawyers 1" Did you ever see a white black
bird ? Why then speak of rascally law
yers ? The very purpose and objeot of the
profession is to advanoe justice, and oan
you or any one else suppose that we would
do otherwise ? It is a maxim, you know,
that law abhors a multiplicity ot suits.
Now law does, but, my dear sir, as is well
know, lawyers do not. Why? Beoause
we never have olienta who are in the
wrong—they are simply unfortunate—and
we want always on hand a good supply of
justice toadvanoe. Whenever aman haB no
law in the courts he gets no jnstioe, when,
on tbe oontrary he stands as terribly on hia
legal rights as the army “swore in Flan
ders," he does a good deed. He is sim
ply in the oategory of the patients with
whom Dr. Sangrado’s treatment worked
well when the plague was io Valladolid.
You know every man was to drink five
gallons ot warm water a day, and be bled
until he fainted. If be died he didn't
drink enough water nor lose enough
blood. If he managed to live through it
medioxl theory was sustained on that lino,
and he more fortunate than others. This
is the "true inwardness" of the whole
matter.
Rascally lawyers, indeed! “No more
of that Hal, an’ tbou loveat me.”
