The difference between having a

The man who says so lies. If he

Bonn Piatt says: “When a play
ful boy is sliding down a sand-bank
with a heart full of carelessness and
a pair of summer pants,nothing more
quickly turns the current of his
thoughts than to slide on a briar,”
but how Bonn Piatt can imagine a
playful boy with a heart ful of sum
mer pants is one of the queer things.
Attorney General Pierrepont [says
he has not had a single complaint of
a “Southern outrage” since he as
sumed the duties of his office. It re
quired Williams’ imagination and
expenditure of the public money to
trump up charges, to keep the “mill”
in operation. The machinery stop
ped working when Williams left the
office. — Courier-Journal.
It is asserted in Washington, upon
what is usually considered good au
thority relative to administration af
fairs, that at the secret session of the
Cabinet on Wednesday the question
of our relations with Cuba was seri
ously discussed, and that the change
in the policy of the Government
was decided upon. This change it is
said contemplates the recognition of
Cuban patriots as belligerents, a
course which the United States has
heretofore abstained from.
A candidate for a vacant vicarage I
in England announces an invention I
of his own which may prove to be
useful. It is a peculiar arrangement
of the pulpit, with a clock to give
warning. When at the end of a half
hour, the clock sounds an alarm, if
the preacher does not conclude with
in three minutes, down comes the
pulpit, with the parson and the rest
of the appendages.

The officials of the Interior Be

of late in circulation printed slips
containing a collection of all the cor

in this city for the last month for
certain Western newspapers, under
the special supervision of that de
partment, and discrediting the re
ports of dishonesty and fraud that
have been printed. Tho religious
press has been chiefly favored with
these deliberately prepared misrepre

The President has appointed
Judge Alexander White,of Alabama,
Chief Justice of the Supreme Court
of Utah. This is the Mr. White, who,
in the Convention of 1865 argued
against the abolition of slavery, and
desired God's thunders to blast him
if ever he proved recreant to the Lost
Cause, and in 1867 urged the people
of Alabama to spit upon the recon
struction acts, immediately after
wards going over to the Radical
party. Last year this man was de
feated by 15,000 votes when besought
a re-election to Congress, and this,
coupled with the facts that he voted
for the force bill,made the last speech
for it, ancl was its author, sufficed to
commend him to Mr. Grant’s grati
tude. So promptly has Messrs. Haz
leton, Duell and White recieved tliir
wages during the past month, that
such of their feilows as remain un
paid will do well to call on the Pres
ident while he has anything to give.
One good result of the change from
Attorney General Williams to Attor
ney General Pierrepontis seen in the
late difficulties in Mississippi. Gov
ernor Ames, without attempting to
surpress trie disturbances with the
power of the States, immediately
made a request to the President for
the interference of the United States
troops, which would probably have
been granted,but for the action of the
new Attorney General. Gov. Ames,
in the excitement of the movement,
and following his old manner of do
ing business, forgot that Williams
was no longer in office. Asa conse
quence of the non-interference of the
United States army, the difficulties
are about settled, and the State is
again quiet. So much for the author
ities at Washington paying some
respect to the Constitution and laws
of our government.
The Atlanta Herald's reporter has
interviewed General Gordon, who
has returned from Mississippi. Gor
don thinks the Democracy will carry
the State this time ; in fact, they are
sick of Radicalism and are determin
ed to do so. He says the main light
of the Democrats will be made on the
Legislature, and thinks Lamar will
be sent to the Senate of the United
States. He has hopes of two other
Democratic Congressmen besides La
mar. The Augusta Constitutionalist
hopes General Gordon will prove a
true phrophet. Perhaps it is the fear
of a Democratic victory that has
moved Governor Ames to plead for
the military occupation of the State.
Even with the “blue coats” on hand
we trust the Democracy with tri
umph.
The Louisville Ledger says:
“While Judge Herschei V. Johnson’s
charge to the jury in the case of the
Georgia insurrectionists was calm,
dignified and manly ; while the jury
carefully weighed the evidence and
finally accquitted these ignorant tools
of crafty leaders, the Radical papers
can find nothing to praise in this ju
dicial moderation but discover only
that there was “a deep laid plot”
against the negroes. Nothing will
satisfy them. Blinded by partisan
bigotry, they are hopelessly prejudic
ed against the South. But who cares?
Theit ravings are of little avail. Let
them nail the black flag to the mast
head, the storm-driven and rotten
ship will go down all the same.
It is remarkable how a certain
class of items will escape Radical
newspapers. Here is one that not a
single “Reformer” seems to have
seen : “A few days ago a venerable
South Carolina settler in Butler
county, Kansas, was sssailed by lvu
klux of Northern birth, and he and
his family were driven out of the
county. He was accused of burning
wheat stocks, and was regarded as a
dangerous character.” The Louis
ville Courier-Journal truthfully re
marks that “If this outrage had been
perpetrated upon a Northern man in
a Southern State, there would have
been a yelp all along the battle-front
of Radicalism.”
The inteligent jury has at last at
tracted the attention of the maga
zines. Scribner’s says : “The simple
truth is, that the jury system is out
lived and ought to be outlawed. It
does not help the cause of law and
justice, and ought to be kicked out of
the way. It is oppressive to the juror,
it is anomalous in our system of gov
ernment, it makes the uncertainty of
law still more uncertain, it is expen
sive, and it is utterly unnecessary.
There is nothing sacred about it. To
be tried by a man’s peers is not half
so good a thing as to be tried by a
man’s intellectual and moral superi
ors.
Affairs in Spain indicate a prospect
that civil war in that country is about
to end, or, at lease, to suffer a tempo
ary eclipse. The Carlist army is in
retreat, its officers counsel a peace
policy, and even the stubborn Carlist
peasantry of the country are convinc
ed that their cause is hopeless. But
the normal condition of Spain is un
rest, and we need not be sure that
King Alfonso will not follow in the
footsteps of Amadeus, and that poli
tical chaos will come again.
Harper’s Weekly thus pronounces
against Grant as a candidate: In
point of view, therefore, in perfect
remembrance of the President’s past
services, and the most greatful res
pect for them, he seems to us unques
tionably the weakest and not the
strongest Republican candidate.
An old ex-soldier returning on
Thursday from receiving his pension,
was set upon by highwaymen and
murdered. Perhaps it might be well
to state that this happened in Mas
sachusetts, and not in an “unrecon
structed” Southern State.
At a~lo\v estimate, Georgia pays
$500,000 anually for imported wag
ons, which could be more cheaply
made at home, and this large sum
saved to her people.
Mr. Ralston, President of the Bank
of California, got $50,000 a year for
his services. Fifty thousand dollars
a year as President of a bank!
Think of it, laborer at the princely
sum of a dollar and a half a day.—
llochester Democrat and Chronicle.
Yes, rejoins the New York Sun ,
and he ruined the bank at that rate ;
and yet his salary was not fixed by
any trick or by any bribery, as Pres
ident Grant’s salary was three years
ago, when with back pay he seduced
Congress into voting him $50,000 a
year after he had been elected on
the agreement that he would serve
for $25,000. Think of this, laborer,
on the Atlanta public works at the
princely sum of eighty cents a day.
Tlie Origin of the Pin-Back Dress.
BY NAD.
Mrs. Judy O’Flinnigan was an
Irish lady, with limited means and a
good constitution. She, therefore,
like a sensible woman, used the lat
ter to preserve the former by taking
in washing, and soon became noted
as a purifier of soiled linen.
Mrs. Judy was a widow, having
buried her “dear Mike” a few days
after his return from a fair with his
nead broken in seven places. “Small
loss,” said the widow to herself, yet
she waked him in a manner worthy
of the O’Flinnigans in olden times.
Now Judy lived in that “modern
Babylon” called London, and it
chanced one day that Madame la
Mode, a noted French modiste , while
visiting “perfide Albion,” required
the services of one of her craft, and
being recommended to Judy, called,
and found her busy over her tubs,
her ample skirts well pinned back
and her person resembling a huge
clothes pin with a sheet tied around
it.
Madame was charmed; to her it
seemed a novel sight, as they do
things differently in la belle France.
There the washerwomen are no,
troubled with long skirts; besides
they generally use the river for a
wash-tub. She immediately felt in
spired with the birth of anew fash
ion, and on her return to Paris pro
duced the dress called the “Blanchis
sense,” which, meaning simply
washerwoman, did not suit on this
side of the water, and the one now in
use was adopted in its stead.— Wash
ington Chronicle.
The Water Famine.— The long
drougnt and heated term have caus
ed great distress in many portions of
Charleston, and at all hours of the
day colored and white children and
servants may be seen plodding along
the streets hunting water. Rain has
not fallen in the city since July 5,
and fully half the cisterns and many
of the public and private wells have
gone dry.
The water famine, which is almost
unprecedented, causes intense suf
fering, and the municipal authori
ties are urged to erect as many
pumps as they can at any early day.

Jay Cooke-’s Northern Pacific rail
way was sold under the hammer in
New York on Thursday for one hun
dred thousand dollars. The lucky
bidder got ten million acres of land
five hundred and fifty miles of iron
rail, and thirty-six million dollars of
indebtedness in his bargain. Noth
ing was said about those gorgeus
pamphlets of Sam Wiikerson’s which
told of the beauties of the “banana
zone” through which the road was
to pass, and which conveyed the idea
of so much tropical sweetness to the
beguiled bondholder; but if they
were thrown in the thing was dirt
cheap. The road has been bid in by
the bondholders.

Howes’ Circus, Menagerie, ami Hippo
drome.
At least five thousand people attended the ex
hibition of Howes’great London Cireus-Ilip
podrome yesterday afternoon and night. The
atractions promised were such as to excite
general curiosity,and everybody went prepar
ed to be disapuomted in cn>e even thing was
not of superior excellence. The performance
and exhibitions over, the managers were as
sured by- the many expressions of favor that
their combinations of canvas-covered wonders
was not only above the average, but far ahead
of any show of the kind that lias pitched tents
in these parts for many a day. The street pa
rade was really gorgeous. The six golden char
iots as they moved through the thoroughfares
drawn by cavalcades of richly caparisoned
horses, presented an imposing architectural
spectacle of fantastic threedec ked magnificence
on wheels that at once indorsed the high char
acter ot the show of which this feature formed
only a minor incidental. Under the pavilions,
however, there were zoological and areuic
novelties to he seen, that challenged the admi
ration oi the old and young. The entrance
passage ushered the visitors into the menagerie
department. Here were ranged the cages and
stalls ot some of the rarest and strangest crea
tures of the animal kingdom. Among them
were the African eland, Bless Bock ; the poto
quaine or sable antelope ; the zebu or sacred
hull ; the brindle gnu, ichneumon, the black
tiger of India, the only one in America, and
the South American tapir. In addition to these
live elephants, camels, zebras, kangaroos, an
aviary of beautiful tropical birds,nine hyenas
five Bengal tigers, leopards, lions from Asia
and Africa, a drove of mustangs, and in fine,
representatives of almost every department of
natural history. The circus was exceedingly
good. The artists gave their respective spe
cialties without a balk. Mr. Chas. Reed, the
I cquestrain, performed a number of interest
| ing feats on horseback, one of which was the
j throwing of a backward somersault through a
1 hoop. Mons. Wm. Conrad’s “dog family,” was
| remarkbly well trained. At the merest verbal
j suggestion they would execute the variety ot
tricks,that almost bespoke human intelligence.
| Mile. Cordelia, the “Queen of the Arena,”
i went through a pr gramme of banner-leaping
and hoop-vaulting without the “pad,” and
was loudly applauded for her skill and daring.
Mr. and Mrs. Austin, the trapezists, belong to
the modern school of gymnasts, and their evo
lutions upon the suspended bar are very thril
ing, and out of the usual run of such perform
ances. The leapers and tumblers of the com
pany were usually good with the rest. One of
them made a double revolution in mid-air
over two elephants. The five performing ele
phants were brought into the ring together,
with their keeper, and actually perform
ed the pyramid illustrated upon the post
ers, much to the surprise of the skeptical.
The e were only a few features of .a long and
j absorbingly interesting entertainment. The
clowns, lour in number, made abundant mer
riment for the spectators. The accommoda
tions for the throng were first-class. In the
reserved quarter the seats were provided with
backs, which added greatly to the com
fort of those occupying them. No one who may
desire to attend a circus and a menagerie
: thoroughly good should fail to visit the Howe
j Combinations. — Cour.-Jour. May 1 at.
