A Sotfzbino Vicmr or the Ku-elux.—A cor

South Carolina, furnishes some heart-rending
details of tho sufferings of one L. E. Bigger, a

And yet upon this shallow and ridiculous
pretence the majority in the House proposes to
evade the Constitution of the United States,
and lay the axe at the root of the dignity and

quit, and in the absence of every legal remedy,
the Clarendon men took a summary one.

the latter substantially independent of ordinary

high and sacred to have their rights and crimes
adjudged by the common courts and juries of

And so it is that first, having in contempt of
law assumed to make citizens of States, the next
step is to take care of them in equal contempt

Senator Vance Censured.
Gov. Yanoa is severely criticised by Demo
cratic Senators for sot resigning and allowing a
Democrat to be elected who will be allowed to
take his seat. They are sure that his dtoMB-
ties will not be removed.—Washington dUpatch
to LouimUe Ledger, 25th.
And he ought to be. His condnot in clutch
ing after what is palpably beyond his reach—
meanwhile standing in the place of another
good Democrat who might reach for and grasp
what Yance cannot—is in the highest degree
reprehensible. It is an injury to himself,
to the people he seeks to represent, and to
the cause of Right in its battle with Wrong, in
that it keeps one more recruit from being
added to the ranks of those who fight for Right
in the United States Senate. We do not believe
that Gov. Vance’s course has the approval of
Ms constituents, and it is certainly not in accord
with the pledge he was said to have made them
when they elected Mm—viz: that if he failed
by January, to have his disabilities removed, he
would resign and let them eleot another man.
who could take his seat at onoe.
We honor Governor Vanoe for what’he has
been and what he has done in the past, and we
do specially commend his manly utteranoes to
Fomey when charged by that Hessian with dis
loyalty for not being sorry for his acts as a
“ rebel,” but all this neither condones his pres
ept conduct nor seems sufficient reason tons why
he should be spared criticism and reproof there
for. We hope he will promptly resign and let the
Legislature of North Carolina send some gal
lant, true son, more fortunate than he In being
in a position to at once reinforce the Democrats
of the Senate in their pending fight against the
last and most desperate scheme of the Jaoobin
conspirators to destroy the Constitution, and
degrade and ruin the people of the South.
The New York Express says that “property
to the amount of over a thousand millions of
dollars passes through the New York Custom

may seem, not more than six or eight or ten
millions of it are annually stolen.—Oourier-
Joumal.
Planting ana Farming.
A traveling correspondent of the St. Louis
Republican writes a3 follows to that journal,
from the city of New Orleans. His letter
dated last Thursday :
The South Poob.—The South is not recuper
ating, as was expected, but is poorer than ever.
This will be the case as long as tMs generation
lives. The fame of the planter is a poor thing.
It don't pay, and will be abolished in tho South
when the present generation is gone aad not
before. Farmers are tho only people that can
do anything in tMs country. A planter is a
splendid humbug, and can do more and make
less than any class of men we can have. A far
mer will make Ms living and have cotton to sell
besides, but a planter cannot make anything
except cotton and has his living to bny, wMch
keeps him poor. But as I have said, there are
no fanners in this country and no material to
make them. The die is cast and this generation
is doomed—doomed to die poor and give their
places to others who will rebel against King
Cotton and cultivate this fruitful land in a way
that tho monied wealth of the Union will con
centrate here. It would be a bad tMng, how
ever, for the States in -the upper part of the
valley if the people should change their old
habits. As things now are, the entire value of
the cotton crop, except what goe3 to the East,
goes above to enrich the farmers in the States
along the Ohio and Upper Mississippi rivers.
By proper management^ these things, except
bacon, could all ~ be produced here and the
money would not go to your section but remain
in the South for manufacturing the cotton into
dry goods. In the course of time the thing will
be done, bqt all of us will be gone before the
change is made.
There is much truth and force inwhattM3
writer says. It is, indeed, little else than what
the Telegbaph has been constantly urging upon
its readers for the past three or four yoais—
when cotton was high as well as now it is low
for the fact of price made no great practical
difference—the balance on the year’s operations
was bound to be, in most cases, an empty pocket
any way. For, when planters have every tMng
to bny but cotton, they will naturally buy lav
ishly or sparingly, just in proportion to the
means they have in hand.
And it is a singular faot that tho prices of
what they have to buy seem to be graduated by
the price of cotton. Generally speaking, bacon
ranges alongside of cotton—not far from pound
for pound—and travels with it up and down the
scale. Mules and com follow suit os nearly a9
they can, and so with many other articles. Con
sequently, when receipts from cotton are heavy,
supplies are liberally purchased at correspond
ing prices, and when they are light, purchases
are light at comparatively low prices. The sit
uation seems to be adjusted exactly to “size the
planter’s pile,” be it great or small.
And that tMs has been the practical opera
tion is easily shown by the faot that little or
nothing better than debt is left from the pro
ceeds of all past crops sold even at the highest
prices, and thus, at this day, the South is poor,
(as this correspondent says,) after having pro
duced and marketed since the war hardly less
than fifteen hundred million dollars' worth of
cotton! All the profits on this enormous pro
duct have, as he says, gone to enrich the traders
of the East and North and “the farmers along
the OMo and Upper Mississippi rivers.”
In these classes might also be included the
Railroads, to wMch this insane poliny has fom
iehed an enormous carrying trade at Mgh rates
—for when people import all they eat and wear,
and send abroad all they produce from the
ground, it is bound to open np a wonderful
freighting bumness; and then people become
so mad to swell it and avail themselves of it,
that a perfect mania sets in to mortgage the
public credit in order to bnild more railways at
the risk of the tax-payers, that the latter may
pay them still more enormous freight bills at
extravagant rates. What is to become of some
of these investments when we cease to supply
our tables and stables from Cincinnati and St
Louis ? It will be as bad a thing for them as it
will be for the WeBtem fanners.
And this correspondent says existing genera*
tions must die out before there can be a change!
We hope not Indeed, we know it cannot be
true; for the planters must have either money
or credit to continue this policy, and affairs
have now come to that pass when cotton-grow
ing will not afford either the money or the
credit to enable the planter to purchase supplies
from abroad. Hard and bitter neoessity is al
ready stopping it We have got to raise what
wo eat, for the simple reason that wo can no
longer buy it, and every year’s product of cot
ton will increase our poverty in a oompound
ratio unless it is a concomitant of food crops
wMch obviate the necessity of bnying our sup
plies from the West.

Ixtebestmo Volume.—The World of Saturday

THE HAST LOriSVIIXE SENSATION.
A Three Bays’ Trance—Startling; Predic
tions—Stand From Under, Everybody.
The Louisville Ledger, of Friday last, gives
the particulars of a first class sensation now
agitating the • gossip and wonder mongers of
that city, wMch certainly are higHy seasoned
enough to suit even the greediest hungerer after
such food. It seems that, on last Monday week,
a young German woman, named Carolina Kte-
bert, aged nineteen, who lives on Shelby street,
between Main and Market, was thrown into a
trance, the second one with wMoh she has been
visited; the first coming on at the age of four
teen years, and lasting bat ono day. At that
time she is said to have predicted the present
attack, and accurately foretold the timeatwMoh
it would commence, and the length of time it
would last. On the ooeasion of her first attack,
she also predicted a third and last visitation, to
come on in exactly seven years from the pres
ent ono, and to end in her death.
The present trance lasted from eight in the
morning till eight in tho evening, at wMch time
consciousness returned, and she remained in her
normal condition until Wednesday morning at
eight o’clock, when she relapsed and continued
insensible until five in the afternoon. At eight
Thursday morning tho last of tMs series -of
trances commenced, and terminated at nine that
night. While in tMs trance state, she has been,
to all appearances, totally unconscious of every
thing transpiring around her, lying perfectly
passive, and in a seeming comatose condition,
with the exception of ocoasional spasms, of
such violence as to require the exertions of sev
eral persons to hold her. She does not appear
to be in pain, and occasionally talks, but with
out coherence, in English and German. Some
times she would sing snatches of familiar song,
bnt without paying much attention to either
words or musio. Just before nine o’clook she
began to sing “Home Again,” passing from that
to “Sweet Home,” and closing with the well-
known Methodist hymn, “Come Thou Fount of
Every Blessing.” It is said that during the day
Mrs. Klebert, with her eyes closed, would call
thenamaof each person entering the room—
some of themperfect strangers to her. She also'
indulged liberally in prophecy. Among other
things, she predicted a wet spring, a hot, dry
summer, and a dreadful epidemic of some new
and fatal sickness, wMch will inevitably carry
off all attacked, and cause the people to fall like
autumn leaves before its dreadful walk. All
attacked will die inevitably, and* in a few hours.
There is to be another European war in 1872,
to wMch tho recent conflicts will be a mere cir
cumstance. Nothing so dreadfol as this war
has ever been known on earth.
She had announced that precisely at nine
o’clock she would come out of the trance, and
precisely at two minutes past that hour die

The peculiar distinctions and privileges ex<
tended to the negro race under the Radical Ad
ministration of the United States, inspire the
Herald correspondents with a new desire to
trace up a common origin and lineage with
Africanus, and hence a claim to his superiol
privileges, immunities, protection and so on;
but we don’t see how they will do it. If they
succeed in tracing the broadly divergent lines
back at last to a common centre in Father
Adam and Mother Eve, let them reflect that the
relationsMp so established is too remote—it is
not like that of the Dents—it is not entitled to
political consideration.
Gen. Grant would say: “Gentlemen, take
any wMte pair yon ever knew or heard of and
let them claim the common parentage of chil
dren wMte as snow and black as the ace of
spades—don’t yon see that nobody would be
lieve, though they* were to swear it ? The day
of miracles is past. Mrs. Eve might have owned
young Zip Goon, not mentioned in Genesis,
and as black as the ace of spades—the creature
of what Mrs. Partington used to eall “a speshul
dispensary,” but oommon sense tells us nothing
of that Uni has happened since; and my rule is
never to recognize officially claims of relation
sMp beyond nineteenth oouslns by marriage.
You can’t get into the royal family of Jets in
that way.” We say, therefore, to the Herald—
it is too late to set up these claims to a common
origin with the negro. They are barred by the
statute of limitations.
Affairs in France.
The morning despatches report the Revolu
tionists in full possession of Paris and the red
flag flying everywhere. They are organizing an
army of sixty battalions qf infantry, cavalry and
artillery, and have empowered their sub-oom-
mittee to levy contributions on the people at
will. Marseilles has also declared for the Rev
olutionists.
On the other hand, the Thiers government
are organizing an army of assault on Paris at
Versailles, and expect to be in readiness to make
an assault in eight days. Moreover, a Prussian
force of forty thousand men were expected at
Versailles to-day, and we suppose, will co-ope
rate in the effort to reduce the Reds to order.
What a picture of misery and humiliation does
these events present!
