Wfitorday evening, last, a negro naan, about twenty four years of ape, whose name is Torn Perry, wan arrested in Col umtiOK, who confesses the parly who enter ed Mr. Cows< rt's store and the depot at this place about three weeks ag . He aeetna to he a oharac'er of some not*, far ing served five years in the penitentiary. Since leaving here he has committed two burglaries; one at Seale the other at Box Spri- ga. H s foondoess for fine clothes led to hia arrest, a- he was airing a “O’t stolen at Box Springs He had Ben K-m --brongh’s fine pistol ard several wacbes in his posse ion at the 'ime < f bis a-rest.

His ex perience is that a mule oan be raised at a cost of from ten to twenty dollars in cluding the cost of tbe jaek. In other words it oosts almost DO'bing. In tbe city of Coiambus there Lave been sold to farmers, no less than one thousand mules, the present season. One warehouse firm alone in that city has endorsed for two hundred and fifty of these, bought by their patrons on time. It would be a low esti mate then to say that within the cotton belt tributary to Columbus, two thousand mules have been purchased this winter, draining tbe country of no less than $250,i000. Hew if these mules had been raised at home, at a cost of $lO each, we would have $230,000 of that sum left in tbe State. A*-k any farmer what it cost to make a pound of cotton last season; bis answer will be “Not less than eight oenta.” If it cost this and the prioe averaged 10 oenta, the prefit on each 450 pen and bale was $9,00 or $900,000 on all the ootton sold at Colum bus. Thus we see that about 27 par cent of the oar cotton crop goes to pay for stock to make another crop. Aod that if w raised our own mules we oculd be just as well off and dispense with the raising of 27,000 bales of cotton. Or that wt must raise thirteen and a half bales of cotton to buy one mute, when with the profits on one bale we might taise him The lllusirated Scientific News.

The Democracy in Congress. Speaking of the record of tbe democrat ic party in since its last aocession to power, tbe New York Sun aays; On the whole tbe party has made a good record in cougress since the tidal wave of 1871—that great re-action provoked by tbe con options of Grantisn—whioh swept tbe bonrbou republicans and lifted the fair promis’ng demoorafios to dry land. At the last presidential election tbe can didates of this party reoe|ved a majority of the popular votes, as t£ey did fonr years ago. 'these votes were not bought, nor were they result of persuasion and intimi dation. They represent, the honest con victions of the men who oast them, and it is clear that the parly whioh is thus mis* tamed after twenty years’ exclusion from tbe spoils of exeoutix* power has no reason to despair. But the democratic party oan expect sna cess only apon one condition; it must never again yield an inch of Its own ground to tbe enemy. It must stand by the princi ples upon wtissh Jefferson founded the paity, and Madison, Jaekson, and all his worthy successors built. Jubilee Organs. There are makers who seek to earn and fix a reputation for first cihrs work whi b shall be for all times. Among these may be noted tbe Mendelssohn Piano Company, minnfacurers of the popular Jubilee Oi> gaus wnicb are rapidly becoming known, aud which do not fail to hold svery inch of ground they oao occupy. 8o thorough is the inspection of the va rious parts, aud of the whole, that when au ! instrument goes out of the house a guaraoee for five years—long enough to break do wo and wear out two common organs—is giv en the purchaser The Jubilee Organ is eminently an organ for the people.—Lou isvi lc, Ky., Commercial. i Having had ucoxsiou to purchase organs of ! this Company for our own personal friends, and haying foaad them to be all that was choicer! for them after years of thorough trial, and li-ving repeatedly visited then factory in New York city, wo are prepared to assert, from our dwu knowledge of the rn’ornfacturers and their organs, that their work is wot evetleHT'by any manufacturer ,uow in the market. Iu abort, ibe Mendelssohn Piano Compa ny’s instruments are eminently the peoples j oigaus, and are worthy of ibe enviable rep j u!ii>ion tbey so certainly enjoy. Wo cor ! dially recommend them to the o n fidrtiae ! and patronage of the public; wo advise | them to oommnnioate with the Company, at its headquarters at New York, and look over heir oncuar and price list. —Th o In dependent.
