What is tbe moral of the grand outbreaking or uprising of the Red Murder Fiend in these d rye ? Let tbe philosophers—the theologians psychologists and all the wiae men skilled in the secret maladies of the son!, look into the mat ter and tell ns the cause and the remedy, If there be any. Such horrid murders crowd into the news reports—reorders of wives—parents— husbands—children I Snch strange actors, too, flit across the ghaa’.ly and ensanguined stage of the great mnrder drama—child murderers and women murderers—asms of the latter of whom smile with composure as they compute their victim* by the half score. One Borgia attained a historic idfancy nnobntested down to this period; bnt now they are getting to be so oom- iton tbat they will oeaso to be prominent. Soro.y there must be some way of explaining and accounting for this saturnalia of mnrdar ihis rampant triumph of human brutality hich has rpmog np as if lo mock, with a dev ilish leer the shallow felicitations over the so- called “advancement of -the—19th-oentnry. Ab, it is a rose colored century: so fnll cl Christianity, civilization, progress, benevolence, human amelioration of all sorts, and so forth, and so forth; bnt look on the other side of it and yen see leg'ons of murdered innocents flee ing in terror from uplifted dagger, axa, knife, pistol, and bludgeon, or writhing in the agonies of death by poison. The world has o'asaed dif ferent eras as the age of iron, bronze, silver, and gold—bat this is the age of murder. How came it an? Tbe ffexlcan Border. The Mexican Border Investigating Commit tee make a dolorous report of the stale of af fairs on the Texas frontier. They have been engaged constantly since \Jannary 10, and have heard evidence in four hundred cases, and have received in addition to thirteen hundred the ex parte sffidrvits of several women and children, who have escaped from Ihe Indians and appear- ' before Ihe Commissioners, and told the story of their terrible sofferiDgg. The Comanches are said to be mainly engaged in tbe business of stealing and selling tho children of white set tlers, while the Kickapoos and Lipana and Mexi cans disguised as such, ohiefly confine them selves to cattle stealing. Ths stock raising within two hundred miles of the Bio Grande hss been well nigh abandoned. The Commissioners represent the cmnnnt of damages, direst and consequential, to those who have hoffered by these raids at between fifty and sixty millions dollars. Five hundred pjti- lions m Ihe way of complaint, with specifica tions, were presented to tbe Commissioners, and these were Bnpported by sixteen hnrdred affidavits. Many of tbe petitions and affiants are represented to be men of fino odnoation and of most respectable character. Ae to tbe Kickapoos it is supposed there are not more than two hundred warriors of them altogether. One of toe old chiefs, referring to the proposition of the United States to the Kick- spocs to go on a reservation said to a courier as follows: “We wonld have bnt a small patoh of eronnd and oonld not make raids on other res ervations; here wo are supported in part by tbe Mexican government, which not only supplies ns with provisions bnt gives n3 money, and when wo want to go to Texas, the Mexioan merchants and planters supply ns with horses, gnns and amnnition and provisions that we may make onr bread, and we pay them from what we capture. Besides we have a good oonntry nnd fine climate, msny privi)*ges and tbe whole Texas border to raid on." The Commissioners think if the captives taken by Cob McKenzie should bo restored to the Kickapoos, they would be more ioolined to return to the United States than thoy are now, and henoo donbt tho propriety of comply ing with their requeit. The Seeretary of the Interior will take no present notion on the telegraphic request of the Kickspoo Commissioner, except to report it to the Secretary of War, with tho suggestion that he confer with the Secretary of State on the subjeot. Bnt alas for the Kickapoos, a good many of thvoa Vioked for Iba last lime when McKenzie raided into their Mexioan fastness and came down upon them like a dock npon a Jnno-bng. From Twigs* County. Twiaas Cotott, Ga., Jnne 18, 1873. Editori Telegraph,and Messenger: I have notioed to nearly'all of yonr issues letters and reports from varions counties in the State, rep resenting the oondiUon" of crops. Therefore, I hope yon. will bear with mo to tell yon onr condition in Twiggs county. First, enclosed I send yon a sample of cotton, whioh yon may aeo at onoe is kneo high (to a duck) and not fall of forms. We haTO brood fields of cotton like this in Twiggs, and the oontxnned heavy rains that have visited ns almost daily for the past aix weeks, together with the cold nights of May, has eansed onr notion, in any quantity, to grad ually grow less'and die ont. Unless we have more nanshine and leas rain very soon the grass will oover the remainder of it. Onr grass crop will now measure as high as any “Lee oonnty man’s” stalk of cotton he gets from “ ’hind do girding,” and sends yon so forward and fall of forms; and right here let ms aay, ten chanoes to one “these soon birds" have given warehonse liens and want to give another “Pape.” Corn crops look,better than any thing else, bnt they are suffering for tillage, and withont it will not mature well. We have some twenty cases of small pox in tho eonoty, and those who nover had measles before have them now. Besides all this, Messrs. Editors, wo have read oarefnlly Mayor Hnff s appeal to Georgi ans, telling ns of onr tree condition, and unless we adhere to its teaobings, insvnmpieo non eomatihus, Twiggs county, Georgia, and the Southern Slates. If it continues to rain, and navigation is free to all, and when tbe caterpillars comes, y off may again hear from, yours trnly, Max EiiAxnrx. Hit tbe Nall on (he Ilead. A correspondent of the Wathtogton Republi can, writing from West Point, relates the fol lowing concerning some of the questions asked the nnsccoessfnl candidates for admission to the military academy at the late elimination: Bio history tbo question was asked, “What social change did tbe rebellion prodnoe?" to to which a Southern candidate, whoso name shall be nameless, replied: “It made the South hate tno North, and the North hate the Sonth; it freed the ‘ nigger’ and broke a tie which nover can be healed." And yet this boy failed to pass in history! It the examiner wanted a true answer to his ques tion, be got it A truer ono w»s noTer made. That Sonthem boy hit tho nail sqnaro on the head and ahonld have been admitted if he had had, failed on all other branches. Bnt perhaps his answer was not “loyal.” . t'bolera In Nashville. Aeoording to onr telegrams printed yesterday there were thirty cholera interments in Nash ville on the 17th. On the 15th the Union re ports twenty five and on tholGth fouitoen.

The Examiner of tbe 16th reports five deaths from cholera on that day— three on the 15tb, three on tbe 14th and one each for the four previous days. The deaths were mainly of the colored population, and oc curred to an insalubrious part of the town. A Partlnr, a Meeting and a Wedding. Ten years ago M. B. Christie journeyed from England to America, and found employment in Lord A Taylor’s: After fire years’ faiihfnl ser vice, on recommendation of that firm, be began traveling for White, Ross A Co., with whom he remains. Before he visited America he fell in love with a bine-eyed, rosy maid, of twelve years, sod on parting the two bound themselves with solemn vows to become man and wife. Maurice did not hear from her daring the ten years* abfence. He worked hard ml laid up a song little fortune. Last Saturday a friend told him that a young Englishwoman was in the Stacy House, whose name was Carrie Linyard. Maurice hastened, and fonnd his betrothed of ten years ago a beantifol, accomplished yonng lady. Her aged tether was with her. The old rows were repeated.

With the father’s approval, they were married that night; and they now live in Mont gomery (treat, Jersey City, aa happy a* two bee* in a tube ro*e_—-Yne fork Sun. Tbe Crops. The Memphis Appeal locnbratea on the grow ing cotton crop as follows: The news that reaches us from all the States, in regard to the growing crops, is anything bnt encouraging. Gotten has been especially un fortunate. In North Mississippi, indeed, we might say throughout the State, newspapers and private correspondents agree that the cater pillar is marching in larger numbers than ever, and that the destruction is greater than has ever before been known. In Louisiana, so great has been the destruction by wet weather, that it is feared impossible to counteract its itflaenoe before ihe pest, which Is a nsnal result of it, (the army worm) makes its appearance and kills what remains of a chance for a crop. In the western part of thia State the continued rains and prevalence of an unusually hnmid atmos phere are quickening the growth of the grasa, and although planters are a orking diligently to check it, it ia feared that it ia already too far ahead and may succeed in checking the growing plant From Georgia there comes the same complaint of grassy cotton, caterpillar and possibility of army worm; yet the farmers are not cast down, bnt are as busy as beavers in their efforts to coop ont the one and kill off the other. In Florida tbe same cause for the same complaints exist, and the apprehensions of planters are folly aronsed, tbongh the hope is indulged that with each hot, dry weather as we in Memphis have been praying for, the threatened damage maybe escaped. Everywhere thronghont Ala bama the cry goes np, “The caterpillar! The caterpillar!” And there seems to be no help for it. Rains have been almost incessant, plant- era are indulging in the most gloomy forebod ings, and tbe newspapers are prognosticating dire calamities in case of failure, since, as the Enfanla Times hss It, “there are no oats, no corn, no bacon ; and all onr money is in a little weed that trill not blossom for three weeks.” In Texas, also, wheneesome time sgo we had reason to expect better things, the story of caterpillar, rain and posaibly the army worms comes with augmented force, and the general feeling is thst the cotton crop will be short. The Sonth Carolina papers, too, are filled with gloomy aooonnts, and they are unanimously of tbe opinion that the crop will be short, the wet weather prevailing there, as everywhere along the cotton belt. In Louisiana, the sugar cane is overran with gra‘S, and no reasonable hope ean be entertained of a satisfactory product. An ont all thia, and as an antidote, we have en- ennraging accounts of the wheat crop in Texas, Tennessee, Virginia and Alabama, and, gener ally, oorn is doing very well. From this it will be seen that any arrangements of spinners or buyers for a big ootton crop are in a fair way to be frustrated, and that those who deal in “fn- tnres” would do well to disoonnt largely the swelling figures of the “bnlla.” The Vienna Exposition. Bayard Taylor, oontinning his description of the Austrian department in the World’s Fair at Vienna, gives soma interesting details of Vien nese industries, beginning with the costliest jewels and fancy articles and going down to tbe minutest artiole of household furniture: The most valuable thing in the jewelry de partment is a necklace of forty-six brilliants of remarkable sizo and lnstre, the property of the Archdnke Carl Ludwig, whioh the police man who stands guard over tbe Ireasnre says 0091 $250,000. There are also three ooronets of diamonds and rabies, whioh perhaps eonnt for $100,000 or $150,000 each, and a nnmber of magmfieent brooches, earrings and pearl neck- laood, with diamond clasps, the cost of which the policeman does not pretend to know and de clines to guess. -One of iheccroneta represents a bit of grapevine, tho stem and leaves being of diamonds and the tranches of gripes of large rabies. A necklace of seven rows of pearls is noticeable more for its gorgeousness and ooatli- ness than from its beamy of design. Thepearls are eaoh almost as big as a schoolboy’s marble. The Vienna jewelers donotrival those of Farisin the variety and elegance of their work, but they rank next to them, and in some special branches even surpass. What will delight the ladies most is the dis play of handsome dresses made and trimmed in the latest fashion, and of. hats acd bonnets of ihe newest mode—lovely thiogs in a women's eyes, bnt cf small interest to the other sex, who will pass them by to look at the goods shown by the tailors, shoemakers and halters in the ad- joining transept. The shopkeeping character of the Anstrran department is particularly prominent here. Tne ready-made clothing is ticketed with prioe labels, and on each case is a stack of the business cards of the exhibitor trom which tho visitor oan help himself if he wishes. The beds are afeainre of tho farniture depart ment. All over the continent double beds are regarded as relies of barbarism. The beddrag herein Austria is a cariosity. They have ail the modern inventions of springs and mattresses, bnt the only covering is usually a very thick qnilc of bright colored silk or delaine, around the edges of which tho npper sheet is (rationed ao as to make a white border of abont three inches wide on tbe npper side, and this border is plaited or (rimmed with lace. The droll thing abont this coverlet is that it is never long enough to reach from tbe shoniders to the feet, and the only way yon ean make it oover yon is to onrl np liko a cat Washington ana Lee University. Twenty thousand dollars have been sub scribed to Virginia for the endowment of the Virginia chair in tho Washington nnd Lae Uni versity, at Lax'ng'.oa, Virginia. Fifty thousand dollars is neesssary for its establishment, and it to thought there will be no difficulty in ob taining it. The Richmond Enquirer, referring to the endowment of different chairs in the Washington and Lee University, says: It is very gratifying to see tbe deep interest manifested in the Uoiversity by the people of other States. The Missourians have subscribed nearly $50,000for tbe endowment of the Missouri chair of applied chemistry, Dr. N. A Fratt; the Kentuckians $25,000 for the Kentucky chair of history and political economy, Colonel William Preston Johnston; the Louisianians $27,000 for the chair of modern languages. Professor E. S. Joynee, and the Texans $25,000 for the chair of applied mathematics, Colonel William Allan. Tho plan js to get a chair endowed from each State with $50,000. This will give the Univer sity a handsome fond, for it nowbas an endow ment of $300,000, and an aggregate capital of more than half a million dollars, and it is free from debt. It reeeived last year in beqnestsand donations nearly $100,000.” Great Falling Oft In tha Wheat Crop Ex. pected—This Tear Pronounced the Worst Store Ihe War. Special Dispatch to tin Chicago Tribute ] Nzw York, Jane 13.—A Washington special s ays: Accounts aro now in from enough of the wheat-growing States to show that the crop of this year will, in all probability, be less than half what it was last year. In western New York, and in fact along the entire lake region of the country, winter wheat is, as might have been expected from the nnnsnal severity of tbe past season, almost a total failure. Other crops have also been severely injured by the late spring. The long continued wet weather pre vails in Iowa, and the crops are suffering greatly. There is every reason to believe that, with the exception of tbe fruit crops, ail others will be very short, the deficiency being especi ally heavy in cereals. In fact, 1873 will proba bly be tbe worst year we have had since the be ginning of the war. The wheat crop is already being harvested in the Southern States, and as far north as the Shenandoah valley. In some oases it has been very fair, bnt, by the time the great belt of the Central States is reached, it is believed that the falling off of the crop will be such as will astonish the eonntry, and affect tbe financial situation. BY TELJEGRAPH. Deep Sea Flslilog. The Washington correspondent of the Chi cago Tribune says that Gen. Grant “ probably entertains no notion of running again, and if he did, wonld be obliterated," bat flaps ont Mr. Secretary Fish &3 the coming ichthas. Saith he (very irreverently, by the way,): “Do yon know that old Fiah ia amongst the volunteers for the Presidency said a high offi cial to me a week ago. “ By George, hie pros pects are as good aa any of them. Suppose the money interest of the country throws the vote in f ?6, as it did without division in *72, wouldn't it pitch upon Fish as abont tbe safest man in the CalJInet ? And he ba3 got to every honor by the silent slide he is waitieg to take now. Gov ernor of New York, Senator and Secretary of State, be occupied all these places almost with out a canvass. His place is about the only one in the country where he might have a positive policy, and At the right time, by a pop At Mex ico, or some other port, get the veering And volAtile half of mankind enthusiastic for him.
