f-OMPAIBIftOB OF SYSTEMS.
We do not know why It is, but Ala
bama has the same system of hiring
convicts as Georgia. If credence is
to be given to the report of the visit
ing committee of the Georgia Leg
islature, it will he noted that more
deaths resulted in one camp in our
State than in the whole force of our
sister Commonwealth. The compari
son is strange and deserves the serious
investigation of our members. Cer
tain facts are alleged to he such and
it behooves that the proper authori
ties should muke a dilllgent enquiry
into the matter. There is one thing
which we are unable to understand.
The committee of the Georgia
Legislature, while reporting the
enormous mortality in the camps,
exculpates the keeper of the
|ienitentiary from all blame. If
men uro dying like diseased sheep,
and from cuuses that the lessees can
remedy, how is it that the keeper has
not reported the fact to the Governor,
to be by him reported to the General
Assembly? Weare unable to reconcile
these two statements. If the mortali
ty was as great as the committee says
they found it, and the excuse so lit
tle, why is it that the Htate had not
heard of the matter until this visit
was made? It must have existed for
some time. Is the office of the keeji-
er of the penitentiary purely an
ornamental one, arranged for draw
ing u salury? Of course these re
marks do not npnly if facts he other
wise than published in official docu
ments. As they appear there, tho up-
pearanco is singular, and if they be
true,some duty lias been plainly neg
lected. There are quite a number of
Important investigations to be made
at the next session of the General
Assembly, and we believe it will be
done fairly and impartially, ami no
attempt be made to whitewash offi-
ials, lie they high or low. The truth
an be obtained, and that is what is
desired. That iienitentlary report is
a terrible expose, and if it be correct
the query is inevitable—why was it
lot known before the last session,
and why was not public attention
culled to tlie matter that the opinion
of the people might force u correc
tion ?
The New Senator. — Colonel
Wilkinson Call has been elected U.
S. Senator from Florida to succeed
Conover whose term expires on the
4th of March. He is the son of the
first territorial Governor of Florida,
and is aged about 45 years. He is
u lawyer of the first rank, and a grace
ful s]>eaker. He has ever been fore
most among the leading Democrats
of the State, and richly won his pro
motion. Under the "Johnson re
construction” he was elected to the
Senate with Governor M&rvin but
was not allowed to take his seat. By
birth, he is a Virginian.
Florida Radicals.—Defeated at
the polls, they are using the U. S.
Courts as a vehicle of oppression.
Packed as their juries are, it is useless
for Democrats to attempt a defense.
Tills system of petty tyranny cannot
be borne always. Spies ami Inform
ers cannot always triumph in their
malicious charges and with their sub
orned witnesses. The lot of Radical
whites and negroes that exist in
Florida will swear to anything for
pay or interest.
A Wisconsin girl pnt on trousers
and started through the deep snow to
walk six miles to a village for provis
ions, the family larder boing empty.
Slio soon became tirod out, bosidea
losing her way, and the cold was in
tense. A big New Foundlaml dog
which accompanied hor was the means
of saving lier life. She scooped out n
hollow in the snow, lay down in it, and
mado the warm dog lie on her, shifting
him about so as to successively cover
the coldest parts of her body. In that
way she passed a whole night, and waa
not vory aevorely frostbitten. "With
two or three more dogs,” she says, “I
would liavo got along very comfort
ably.”
AUAINMT THE TAXES.
It seems a hard matter to get taxes
out of the wealthiest men in tills
country. They prate much about
the duty of others but are averse to
doing uny more than they ure abso
lutely compelled. Thus, during the
war and several years after, until It
became so odious that it was repealed,
the United Slates hail an Income tux.
The wealthiest rarely returned it cor
rectly, hut allowed it to be assessed
by the officers, and they made the
amounts much less than they were.
Mr. Tililen, a bachelor, President
elect of the United States, and re
puted to he worth millions, Is now
being sued by the Government for
buck taxes on his income. Hundreds
and thousands did as he acted. New
York 1ms a personal tux, and here
comes Win. Vanderbilt, according to
general account, witli an estate of
one hundred millions of stocks and
bonds, and sweurs that his debts
exceed his personal property
and hence he has nothing on
which to pay. Many others have
followed In his train. Taking the
course of events, says tho New York
Times, during the pust six yeurs as a
basis of calculation, It is presumed
that the decreuse in the amount re
alized from personal taxation will
ftill Bhort of that realized in 1878 at
leust $10,000,000.” As an example,
one man came into the tax-commis
sioners’ office who had been assessed
for $25,000 personalty but who swore
that he owed $240,000 on bonds and
mortgages. This affidavit wijied out
his personal tax. A second, who wns
assessed for $1,500, swore that if Ills
dnbts were jiaid he woule not own
$300 ; and a third who was assessed
for $5,000 as a broker, stated that ho
whs only n broker’s clerk and did not
own a cent. A lnrge Item of exemp
tions is represented by stocks in in
oorporated companies which invest
their capital in United States bonds
which are not taxable; and still
another Jis the wealth of corpora-
nation. He aiinounons his intention to tions which do nearly all their bust-
Preparing to Flfhl the Wen fern Union.
Prom the N. Y. Graphic.]
The final results of tlie combina
tion of railroad companies against
tlie Western Union Telegraph Com
pany have come to light. It appears
that of 8,000 places from which mes
sages for the Western Union are sent,
something like 0,000 nre railroad sta
tions belonging to various railroad
companies. The telegraph wires
along the routes of the railroads are
the property of these corparations,
and simply leased by the Western
Union. Were ail the railroad com
panies to combine and form an asso
ciation of their own for operating
these wires, it would at once deprive
the telegraph company of tnrec-
fourtlis of its business and over three-
fonrths of its stations from which its
most lucrative business is derived.
But the New York Central, with its
connections Is favorable to the West
ern Union because of tlie interests of
tlie Vanderbilt family in the Htock of
the telegraph company. While this
abides in strengthening the hold of
the telegraph company,itiHusoureeof
jealousy among the officers of the
railroad companies. There is a feel
ing among the officials of all other
grand trunk lines that they have
been made the tools and agents of the
Vanderbilt interest. The recent Uni
ted States Supreme Court decision gave
opportunity for tho combination to
act. It is thought it is tlie intention
of the originators of the new move
ment to organize a company in which
all tlie trunk railroad lines", with the
exception of tlie New York Central,
are to take stock. Messages are to
ho sent at about one third tlie price.
Press messages, especially, are to be
transmitted at very low rates. It is
supposed that, with the wires and
poles now owned ny the railroad com-
panies, not more than $1,000,000 will
ho required to supply the additional
wires und poles necessary. It is un
derstood in legal circles that the leas
ing of the Union Pacific and Central
Pact fie was nil illegal act; because
under tliclr charter, these companies
are required to maintain telegraphic
lines for the benefit of the communi
ty, and cannot grant special privi
leges to any individual or corpora
tion. They aro required also to re
ceive and transmit commercial mes
sages on equal terms for all parties.
Tlie necessary committee for the or
ganization of tlie coni|iany is already
arranged, and the $1,000,000 will he
forthcoming. The programnieof the
new company will lie cheap tele
graphy and the breaking up of the
monopolies connected with the Asso
ciated Press. It is claimed that the
■final result of tills movement will be
to make telegraphy in the United
Htates as cheap as in England.

The Bell-BlrS.
In the forests of Guiana at day
break and at sunset, says Audobon,
may be heard, mingling with the
morning and evening tributes of the
birds, a loud, clear note, like the
sound of a distant bell; and at noon,
when all animated nature in forest
and grove seems bushed in tropic si
lence and repose, this tolling sound
steals ill rough the air at regular In
tervals, and rouses the drowsy hearer
from his mid-day reverie. This pecu
liar music is made by the bell-bird, a
native of those climes, called by the
Indians, Dara, and by tlie Spaniards,
Campanero. This bird is about as
large as a jay, with plumage of daz
zling whiteness, and form much re
sembling a dove. The peculiarity
which, distinguishes the bell-bira
from ail others, in appearance, is a
rounded and tapering muscular- ex
crescence, of a jet black color, and
covered with short feathers, which
proceeds from the forehead. This car
runcle is flexible and usually hangs
down upon one side of the head; but
when the bird would give forth its
peculiar note, it is raised by muscu
lar contraction and protrudes above
the head a distance of two inches or
more, forming a hollow tube of small
diameter. The cavity of this tube
connects with the throat, and it is
supposed by naturalists that the bell-
like tones of tlie bird are produced by
the quick vibration of the air through
this singular crest. The bird’s note
is full and rich, like a silver-toned
bell, and may be heard in the still
ness of the forest for a distance of
three miles. It seeks not the com
panionship of other birds, but alone,
in tlie midst of those extensive wilds,
jerched upon tlie high and withered
op of an aged mora tree, it gives
forth tills strange and solemn strain.
First a single toll, and then a pause
for a minute, while the sound floats
into silence; then another toll, uud
then again a pause of longerdurution,
after which the former succession is
resumed.

The President of the New York Ele
vated Railroad Company, Cyrus Field,
makes a very extraordinary report of
the condition of the rapid transit pio
neer iu this city. Its track, as far as
completed, is thirty miles long. Its
trains carry nearly 100,000 passengers a
day and run on an average tlie enor
mous distance of 27,000 miles—more
than the circuit of the globe. Tlie
financial showing is still more favora
ble. On May 15, 1877, it bad less than

The Azor,—Notwithstanding the
dolorous accounts which have oome

other cargo of doludcd victims. The
Charleston News and Courier sa
"Four of tho old erew of the Azor have
agreed to resliip on her, und are busily
engaged in oiling and painting her.
Several applicants for passage to Libe

COMPARATIVE WEALTH.
Now that serious labor and fimin-
eiul troubles assail Great Britain,
comparisons are being made between
the wealth of that country and
France, and it is found that the latter
is much tlie richer of the two, and the
United Htates is far behind in the
comparison. In France the real and
personal property is estimated at
$43,110,000,000 and public paoperty
$3,000,000,000 — total $48,110,000,000.
The same values in England, Scot
land and Ireland are $42,500,IKK),000.
The highways in France are valued
at $1,525,000,000. These are not in
cluded in the estimate of Great Brit
ain, which country lias about two
billions less wealth than France.
The real property Iu Frauee great
ly exceeds that ill England,
while in the luttertliC personal prop
erty largely prevails over that In
France. The increase of wealth in
France during the last ten years bus
been $7,500,000,000, or at the rate of
$750,000,000 a year. At this rate of
Increase the German Indemnity of
$1,000,000,000, enormous as it was re
garded, was overcome by tlie savings
of sixteen mouths. The total wealth
of the United Htates, as assessed in
1870, was $14,000,0(81,000, not includ

Penn Yan, N. Y., Jan. 16.—For
many years Leon Lewis, of Penn Yan,
was a story writer for the New York
Ledger, and other periodicals. His
wife, Harriet Lewis, was also a popu
lar story writer. They acquired con
siderable property in Penn Yan, and
took rank in social life. Their home
was one of the finest in the place. A
year or so ago Mrs. Lewis died, and
some months later Leon Lewis an
nounced that tie intended to begin
tlie publication of a periodical in
Penn Yan moddelied after Robert
Bonner’New York Ledger. He got
a large subscription, and on tlie week
before Christmas The Mystery ap
peared. Believing that his wife was
still witli him in the spirit, and was
interested in tlie enterprise os much
as though she were living, Lewis an
nounced Ills dead wife as his co-editor
and publisher. Tlie initiul number
of The Mystery contained tlie open
ing chapter of a story purporting to
have been written by Harriet Lewis.
Leon’s introductory editorial article
was a feeling eulogy of his late wife,
it declared tiiat she was in constant
companionship with him, and that
tlie "blessed hope of eventually en
folding her in liis arms in heaven"
was all that reconciled him to her
death.
Only one number of the Mystery
was printed. Miss Julia Wbeelook,
a niece of Harriet Lewis', had become
a special favorite of Leon Lewis. On
the Monday previous to Christmas,
Lewis and Miss Wheeloek started
from Penn Yan, with the under
standing among their friends that
they were going to Rochester to do
some Christinas shopping. Rut tlie
baggage master checked nine trunks
for them, and since their departure
they have not been seen in Penn
Yan.
It bus come out that Lewis aud his
sixteeu-yeur-old companion arrived
in New York on the day previous to
the sailing of the steamship Scythia,
and that they took passage for Eu
rope. Lewis owes $50,000 in Penn
Yan. He leaves a property estimated
Bctnoval.
