It was announced u few days since
tlmt the Democratic ‘Congressmen
would Insist on the repeal of odious
jury and election requirements by at
taching the provisions to some of the
appropriation hills. The Hmitli
trusted at last she would he free from
oppression and wrong, but from the
hesitating, hailing manner of the
enuouses, it is needless to hope for
anything. Senator Thurman advises
attack on the whole line, and though
driven back, persist in the aggressive.
Our Representatives Hp|»-ar to. he
afraid of their own shadow, and fear
to make any advance. They arc
content to stay in the old trenches,
constantly being injured by inaction,
and when they have power arc too
timid to take advantage of it. In
tlie Senate the repeal of these sec
tional measures, framed in the inter
est of one party, is opposed by such
Senators as Bayard of Delaware, and
Kernan of New York. Through
such counsels and actions as they
advise we will never have the Iron,
elad oatli removed or enjoy the
freedom of an election undis
turbed by insolent Radical
supervisors. These accuse whom
they please, and then because
of tlio rigid test oatli none but Radi
cals can lie on tho jury. In addition
there is a Radical attorney to prose
cute and a Republican judge on the
bench. What chance lias a Demo
crat when charged witli a political
offense urn! brought before such a tri
bunal'.’ The most depraved and igno
rant are believed in preference to the
most honored anil intelligent. A
Radical can do what lie pleases.
These supervisors and iron-clad
juries were constituted in tlio interest
and the success of their party. They
havo proved Instruments of unjust
power and license. The Democrats
seemingly are fearful to attempt to
repeal iniquitous exactions by adopt
ing tlie hold aggressive policy by
which tlie Republicans carry their
schemes, it docs seem that tlie
Southern Congressmen should have
some influence in shaping tlie course
of their party and they would insist
on removing tlie chains which have
so long been mi gulling. They ought
to lie able to force action. Make tlie
Republicans defend’
THAT I'lFTII ARTK l.i:.
Emperor William stilted in his
speech at the opening of the German
Reichstag, that the llflli article of the
treaty of Prague had been [abolished.
This is another instance of tlie prin
ciple of empires; Let him take wiio
has the power, and let him keep who
can. Germany Is good for both
taking and keeping. That arti
cle was inserted in tlie treaty
of 18(14, after Austria and Prussia
lmd jointly plundered Denmark of
tlio provinces of Schleswig and
Iioisteln, and Lauenburg, , It
provided that whenever (lie Danish
element in the Schleswig population
would vote to lie restored to Den
mark, it should be done. At tlio
same time Prussia acquired r’ttuen-
luirg from Austria, (who lmd taken
tlmt part of tlio booty), by paying
her $2,600,000. Now, Germany qnd
Austria have abolished tlie liftli ar
ticle and tlie Danish Schleswigers
have no chance to vote themselves
hack to Denmark. Tills Ih llis-
limrk's work, and it grows out of the
friendship displayed at the Danish
Court on tho occasion of the late mar
riage of tho Duke of Cumberland to
tlie Princess Thyra, toward tlio Han
overian delegation. Tlie Duke of
Cumberland is obnoxious to Uis-
mark, because lie persists in claiming
tlio millions of Guelph property con
fiscated by Prussia In 18(1(1, on ac
count of tho adherence of tlie Duke’s
father to Austria. This monarch
(George V., of Hanover), never
would acknowledge Prussia's
primacy or tlio German
Empire. Hanover was annexed to
Prussia and is now part of tlie Gor
man Empire. There does not appear
to he uiiy justice in the business but
nono strong enough to resist it are
willing to interfere.
Only the metaphysical German
can explain the onuses of the many
dinieulticH and perplexities mid
troubles of tho petty States and Ger
many. When tlie Schleswig-Hol
stein war whs in progress—Austria
and Prussia against Denmark—Lord
Palmerston was asked if he under
stood its origin, lie replied ves, mid
theroweroonly two men in Europe
who did understand it. One was
himself and the German professor
who gave him the explanation. The
professor was dead anil he iP.) lmd
forgotten it.
Thk reinarkablo “trance case" at
Fort Edward, New York, turns out to
have been an ordinary death from
heart diseaao. Theatoryisa very sad
one. On Friday evening the week be
fore last, the “Mito Society” of tlie
Baptist church had one of its customary
sociables, and Miss Anna Carter was
among tho brightest, merriost and
prettiost girla in tlio parlors. She
soemod to bo in perfect health, and her
animation and flow of spirits made her
tlio leading spirit of tlie evening. “1
fool happy,” slio said to one of her
friends, “hut I feel queer, as If I could
lly away with myHelf.” While in tho
supper-room sho turned pale, and
clasp Iior hand to hor heart. At
tho same instant she rose from
tho table anil with the simple words “I
don’t fool well,” fell lifeless to the floor.
A physician arrivod In a few minutes
and pronounced it a fatal case of hoart
disease. When the body of tho beau-
tlful girl was tenderly carried to the
liouso which she had loft only a fow
hours before in such morry mood, her
mother's grief was lieartronding. “She
is not dead ! Sho cannot 1)0 doad 1” was
tho cry of anguish uttered again and
again. On tho noxt day it was noticed
that tho body was quito warm, and
hopes wore inspired that the girl was
In a tranco that was tho counterfeit of
death. Then began tlio vigil of love.
Friends watched day after day and
night after night for signs of life.
Physicians wore summoned and extra
ordinary tests were inailo. The arm of
tlio girl was barod and a vein punc
tured by a sharp needle. A mirror was
held under tlio nostrils and something
like moisturo was discerned on its sur
face. A galvanic battery was brought
into requisition and currents of oloc-
triclty woro set in motion. But tlio
breath of life had departed forever.
On Wodnosday preparations wore made
for the fiinoral, but when tlio body was
placed In the coflln a slight flush gath
ered oil tlie chock of tlio girl. IIopo
was rekindled. Tim funeral was again
delayed anil tlio watcliors resumed
their places ; and it was not until there
were manifost signs of decomposition
that tlie mother would consent to have
tlio romalns buried.

Butler's Intimidation. — Tlio
debHto on war claims in tlie House
yesterday possesses a great deal of
interest, (iulicu number of Demo
crats united in tlie oondeimuitlon of
siidi appropriations and their unnl-
ternblo opposition to them. They
showed too that the immense amount
j of Southern claims, so-called, had
! been voted by Republican Congress*
i men to imported Radicals—men who
| could not he classed as Southerners.
I A majority of the money was voted
to men who rarely had nothing hut a
pretended claim. Gen Shelley said
there were not twenty claimants in
1 Alabama.
| The most notable feature of the
discussion was the plain and unmia-
I taknble Intimation of Gen. Butler, of
| Massachusetts, that tlie era of hrotli-
| erliood would soon arrive when the
I animosities of the war would lie for-1
j gotten, and tlie maimed and wound
ed of l>otli armies would he cared for
Wesleyan Christian Advocate: Tlie
Texas Advocate publishes a letter from
Governor Roberts, of that State, ill
which lie denies tlmt lie was tlie
“Judge" Roberts who warned Bishop
Janes to leave Bonham, Texas, in 1859.
Bishop Haven was certainly misin
formed in this matter.
It would indeed seem that tho gentle
Bishop "was certainly misinformed in
this matter." Would it not lie well
enough for him to do a little something
to arrest a slander to which he lias
given very wide publicity 7 Some
men would feel liko making an apology j by tlie general Government and no
to Governor Roberts. Poople who go 1 other claim considered. May that
about with itching cars aro apt to ho
misinformed. Hut what a luxury it
must bo to tho good and loving Bishop
to hear and tell ugly tales on Southern
people. Doom he also find this habit of
lit.. moans of grace?’*
; era soon arrive ia a wish that can he
devoutly spoken. Such an utterance
j coming from a man like Butler al-
| most creates a sensation of wonder,
j It certainly exhibit* a surprising
I change |ti sentiment.
It Ih amusing to watch the Republi
cans pluck up courage as the cipher In
vestigation proceeds and develops the
criminality and stupidity of a fow pri
vate schemers in’the Democratic party.
They have actually reached tho point
of insisting that it is not proved that
tho Returning Hoard woro purchasable.
Up to this time no one has over thought
of advancing such a monstrously absurd
proposition. Even Republicans have
hitherto taken it for granted that they
woro purchasable stnfT. Nono lias
thought of disputing it. Tho temporary
veil tlirown over their successful felony
lias emboldened thorn to insist that
thoro was actual virtue in tho Return
ing Hoards. Wo submit this is carrying
a joke ontirely too far. We can stand a
joke in reason, but not to that extent.
—[Nashville A merican.
It is some comfort to know that if
our British kinsmen woro defeated by
tho Zulus it cost 3,000 dead Zulus to
500 Englishmen. Tlio inevitable result
will be a speedy cleaning out of Zulus
and occupation of thoir country and
further extension of British civiliza
tion. Thoro is nil admirable quality of
tonucity about tlio Briton. Where ho
once puts down his foot he will build
ids own kind of civilization if ho lias to
create a solitudo in which to build it.
Ho is absolutely determined that it
shall bo'Hritsh civilization,and provided
that is accepted ho always allows tlio
largest liberty. Sentimentalist quarrel
with the method, but tlio practical are
satisfied to accept tho result.
Tiik RopublicAu party at the present
moment is in an indescribable condi
tion. There is Sherman for himself,
Blaine for himself, Edmunds for kim-
solf, Conkling for himself, and tlio
men of tlio Zacli Chandler and Robe
son stripe for Grant. If it is prolmblo
to etVeet a union of such iuhurmouious
elements in time for tho general con-
tost of next year, it will hate to bo
done on some different basis from
oither resumption or sectional hostility.
Tho party, in truth, is merely falling
apart because it no longer acknowl
edges a sentiment strong enough to
keep It together.
A m'miikii of members of tho Re
formed Episcopal Church in Philadel
phia propose to discontinue tho obser
vance of Lent as a season of fasting.
They urge that tho indulgence in
worldly ploasuro before and after Lent
is increased by way of compensation
for enforced abstention during the sea
son of fasting; while they also urge
that uniform moderation of lifo is the
Church’s great need, and that this may
be better soeurod without Lenten ob
servances than with them.

In pleading for the protection and
perpetuation of forosts the Lumber
man's Gazette, gives some interesting
particulars of tho amount of timhor
consumed every year In this country.
It says:
We have about 90,000 miles of rail
road; the annual consumption for tics
or sleepers alone is 40,001),000, or thirty
years’ growth of 75,000 acres. To fence
these roads would require at least 130,-
000 miles of fence that would cost
000,000 to build, and take at least 915.
000.0(H) annually to keep in repair. We
havo 75,000 miles of wire, which re
quired in its putting up 800,000 trees,
and the annual repairs must take 300,-
0(H) more. Tlio little, insignificant
Inciter match consumes annually in its
manufacture 300,000 cubic feet of the
tin list pine. Tho bricks that are annu
ally baked require 2,000,000 cords of
wood, which would swoop tlio timber
clean from 50,000 acres. Shoe pegs
arc quite as important an article as
matches or bricks, and to make tho re
quired annual supply consumes lo ) ink)
emit* of fine tini)>er, while tho in riu-
facture of the lasts and boot trees
500,000 cord* of birch, beech ami in »plo
and about the same amount is require i
for plane stocks and tho handles of
to ds. ’Hie packing boxes made in the
United States in 1874, amount to *12,-
000,000, while the timber inanufactured
iir.o agricultural Implements, w i rons,
etc., is more than $100,000,OcO. The
farm and rural feiieeM of tin* country
consume an immense amount of lum
ber annually, but as we grow old as a
nation, this consumption m »y and
probably will be redu ed by the in *ro
general use of live fences or hedges.
Our consumption of timber is rapidlv
on th« incf* »se Our staves go by the
million to France annually; walnut,
oak, maple Mini pine to England, and
spa' s hi I docking timber lo China and
j Japan."
New York, Feb. 10, 1870.
Enquirer-Sun: Very rarely now
am I troubled with “cacaethos scrlb-
ehcli,” perhaps it is only because of my
desire for “rest.” Although not horn
exactly tired, I confess to a weakness
for comfort. To-night, however, ns I
sat, with feet toasting on the steam-
pipes, in my room looking out on
Broadway, thronged with its vehicles
jufd pedestrians (by the way, I think
tho city papors within tho last few
wooks have said something about pe
destrians,) my mind turned with a
longing for homo and home poople;
and Columbus and her much loved
homos and citizens lingered so in my
thoughts that, as I could not talk to
them in person, I felt it would be a
relief to do so through you.
But away with my musing, else, al
though “I never use a big, big D .”
“Well! hardly ever;” I may bo tempt
ed to apply to my luck, because I am
not to-night iif the “Club,” recounting
tales of Now York life, of Paul Boy-
ton’s feats on sea, as woll as tlie won
derful seamanship of “tho first lord of
the Queen’s Naveewhoso fleet now
consists of seven of “H M S Pina
fore’s” floating on the broad stages of
seven Brooklyn and New York thea
tres—a success In comic opora never

Agnes Robertson, wife of Dion Bou-
cicault, appears this week for tho first
time in many years, and Booth’s Thea
tre will be jammed with the “Acade
my” people—that is, tho same class
which attend Col Mapleson’s high fried
operas at tho Academy of Music. “Aw
fully swell” oxpressos It, which means
when translated into plain old-fash
ioned Southern slang, “the top of the
pot.” Gerstor, “queen of song” in
price and in voice, Minnie llauck,
Campanini and “little” Maploson’s
wife, Marie-Roze, and all tlioso sweet
singers return on the24tli (“before Lent,
thank gracious,” each little city beauty
says,) to gladden we “musleales,” for
you know I am a judge of music, a*s
all of it sounds alike to me.
Mrs J L Robertson, formerly Miss
Mary Webb Pollard, of Montgomery,
made hor debut to-night at Chickoring
Ilall in concert. Despite tho fact of
to-night’s being that for tho charity
ball, thoro was a very fine audience,
many of tho “swell” being out, and
Mrs R.\s appearance and drdss were
only equalled by hor beautiful man
ners and surpassed by her oxqulsito
soprano voice, which last aroused a
feeling in tho vast audience that said,
as plainly as if written, “she will be a
groat singer.” Well may Barili, who
first taught the groat “Patti” when a
littlo child, claim Mrs. R., as ho does,
aiijong his favorite pupils. It is not
knowu as it should be, that among
several hundred applicants for
tho poBt of first soprano, Mrs
It was awarded it in this city’s
finest church, and the sudden
sickness of her children aftewards
caused her to resign, os b1\© could not
loavo hor then homo, and sick children
to como to New York. Sho is now tho
principal soprano in a magnificent
church.
Tho Union Square Theatre, which
never pluys any one as a star in its
star company, owes much of its suc
cess in tho long runs of “Mother and
Son” and “Tho Banker's Daughter'
that most graceful and accomplished
lady and student “Miss Sara Jewett,'
who has relatives among your best
citizens, and who once played to
Columbus audionco.
The ball season is at its height,
and to-night’s “charity” ball—well I
will not particularize for tho glitter of
diamonds so dazed my poor head that
I could but think mysolf in Aladin’w
palace, until my hand touched my
pocket, when the spell was broken and
I know I was only a poor straggler,
and as I gazed on my last nlckol I
thought of my feet and my mouth,
and though I sighed as I passed tho
nearest boor shop, my love of luxurious
muse overcame my appetite and a pass
ing horse car “kotch dqt nickel.”
