PAUPERISM AND CHIMB. Tho prcsldnut of tho national prison emigres, rails attention to a fact of great Importance which, though not notv, has uttrnctcd comparatively little attention. Tlio fact Is that the number of criminate hi .he United States ftp. ermines out of oil proportion to tho groutli of population. Tlio figures bring out this fact in n startling way. In 1850 ono person out of ;t,442 In tho United Status was a criminal; In 1800 otto in I,<H7; 1870 one lu 1.171, uud in 1800 ono In 757. That is to say, la forty years tlio criminal classes in creased nbout ftro times ns fast as tho population. Various theories lmvo horn put for ward to account for tins relatively rapid increase of criminals. < luo Is that It la duo to the ulmormal growth of cities anil towns, by which millions of poople lmvo boon withdrawn fron tho rural districts and subjected to tho vicissitudes, tho temptations and tlio poverty of city life. This theory seems plnusllilo. Tlio great llow of poptiln- .Bon to the cities hns Iwen most marked since Hie railroad era Imgnn, not long iKiforo 1850, nnd Is chnmcicrtsUo of every country whose railroad system Is largely developed, llut If tho lucrenso of crime were wholly due to this cause, It would 1k> equal In nil of these coun tries. , Hot ns n matter of fact, It Is not. While crime Ins Kvn increasing lu tho United Slates by hups nnd tmunds, ns tlio llguroa we lmvo given show, it bad been decreasing In (treat llrltatn. In that country the records show n great falling o!f ia tho number of oonvfctkMia for crime uud also a great falling olT In the number of paupers. Them nro not ouly relatively fewer criminals mid paupers tlinu forty years ago, imt actually fewer, so that It may lie said thnt lu Uioso respects England Is not only not worse off than slio was, Imt is distinctly lietter off. Posidldy im explana'lon, or n partial explanation, of the Ineroiso of erlmo lu tlio Pulled States eon lie found In these foots of Unglldi exiiorl.'ace-Hmt Is to sny, possibly tlio Incronec of erlme In tigs country Is due to tho lbciense of poverty. It Is no answer to the sug- pwlkm to sny dint sluce 1850 the eouu- try ns a whole has ticeomo euonuimsty rich. So it has; tiut It Is also true that during the same Mum the number of very poor popple— people Who nro un the verge of privntlcu—luis Increased very largely. The new wealth Hut has come Into the oeumry or been created here Is not evenly distributed'hut 1ms gone Into the minds of eomponulvely few peoplo. Tile re*ult Is Hint whereas la 1850 we tiad few rich men mid al most no abjectly (»oor One*, we now have many very itch unit very ninny poor. Tlio featuring eoutmst m ootidl- tkms Is uot eiHrulalod to add to the cealenl amt ImppUirsa of thoso who do not sluire the pooxciial >u of wealth, and It Is not Impossible that this contrast Is Uio cause, through the discontent, tho envy, tho ndntf of smog ru(Tered, the despair It creates, from which much crime springs. It will never bo that tho wealth ot tho world wlU lie slmred equally by Us people nud such a division of tt Is uol necessary b> thrir happiness. Nor does nu unequal division of it necessarily breed crime. Mon do not fret about tlio honestly nequlred wealth of thotr neighbors. But when they seo that wenllh was not earned hut Is the' revult of d'svrlminaUon by the government tu favor of its holders, they naturally be- come dlssatlsflcd. v t:. After nil, tho Isist rv'in.xty for crimo is the doing of exnet JusHce by gowmmoat In nit'its relations with its caucus, the in. a it the bond of pnbl c atTolrs nain-iiitk-ring always that they (jioc. t do favont for ono citizen except nt the expense of others. A*QUBKR ARGUMENT. One of our Poputtot routeinpornrca thinks that the reveal striVo goes far towards proving that the gorernmeut should own the railroads "The rail roads." Is says, "nave shown their Inability to transport the moils, freight sud passengers regularly." This Is a curious spechuvu of Inverted reasoning. The failure of the government to fully protect the railroad* in the iw* of their property nnd hi thrir right to do buriaena ia used as an argument to prove Hist the govenuneol to well qua! tiled to perform other duties. If the railroad* did not regularly transport motto, firighl glad isueenger*. the fall- urg was entirely doe to the Weakues* of Hie goierttiwat-to >ts failure to perform Us full duty-and tu* to any lock of ability on their own part What guarantee Is there, when the govern ment foils la tho |K-rtomuuieo it the plainest, simplest nf Its' duties. Hint of protecting ettieeus ia Ibe possession of their property and inatitalnlng public order, that It will Is* In any degree suc cessful In uduJatotettog tlio n If sirs of the railroads? If It should not ho suc cessful, wlint then? Revolutions do not go backward, and tho government anco in possession of 'lie miboads would continue to I add them, uo matter what disaster was brougtit an the ooun- try from Its possession of them. Tho hundreds of Hiousands of men with u direct pecuniary Interest In ifovcrnment ownership, I landed together for politi cal uctrai. would see to It that no par ty which favored a change of policy- got oo*i tool of the government , A TARIFF "ERROR." A telegram from Washington tlio other day stated Umt the Republican sumitohi had determined to prevent tho correction ot uny error* lu Hia new tariR luw. The most Important of tlieso errors is a clause permitting the freo importation of alcohol useil in Hie arts, out of this orr-ir the Itepuhllcans are to lag to make u good deal of pot lltlcal capital. Mr. Sherman rays It will cost the government £10,000,000 to 150,000,000 a your lii the loss of reve nue. Now It happens that this clause is an amendment offored by Senator Hoar of Massachusetts and put lu the hill main ly by Rcpuldleaa votes. -It Is ex plained that Mr. Hoar offered the nmendment "tentatively" and was’ as tonished when it was adopted. It lip- pear*, therefore, that tho so culled ‘‘error" Is not an error, but tho result of a Republican attempt to make the law a hail one. If It remains uneor- rccted Iiecauso of Itepabllnan obstruc tion, *ii spite of tho fact that Repulp llcnu senators admit that It ought to bo corrected, there might not lo ho much chance to tnako capital out uf It for the Republican party. Tho stato campaign opens In earnest this week, when tlio Democratic enudl- duto for governor nnd a largo number of tho party's most prominent mou take tho stump. It Is going to ho n lively campaign nnd, of loursc, a win ning one. But tlio certainty Hint tlio DumocraMo ticket will lw elected does uot innka. persistent, hnrd work by every Democrat who can help to swell the party's majority loss desirable. There is ovtdeneo that the third party movement tins lost its aggressive force nnd to faltering. Tho election in Geor gia should liy its results make this a fact too plain to bo disputed by nuy- body. Mr. Clem rtillUps, -vho ts in charge of the lucnlmnU* display at tho Dixie Intel-state Fair, lias written a circular letter lu which lie asks tho hearty co operation of Mncoi. mciYhuiitp hi mak ing tlio display all Hmt It should bat.

Tho luerclmiits' display can easily lie .-undo ono of tho most beautiful features, nud this ought to bo equivalent to saying that It will lie. HARD TO GET AWAY FROM MACON. To Hie Editor of the Telegraph; It I* very hunt to get a-wny from Macon. What will) my own buslnes* and (he va rious other enterprlecs ot it public nature that X have in my humble way tried to help along, my hand* have been so full and I have been *o cloaely ronltned that my physician'* order* to set away be came Imperative, and. Detains ihe nrat opportunity thereafter of "acuaeton" mire, 1 bought a ticket over the Uoutlivrn Hall way for Cumberland Itlnnd. My nrat at tempt to get away from Macon 1 made Saturday ntsht. To be aurc ot getting off I engaged a faithful Jehu to call at 0 o'clock eo ns to be In ample time. You remember how tt rained In Macon Satur day night? Well, th* hackman wae mak ing an extra drive, I auppoie, and did net cull tor me until 10:10. Tho herd ruins had waehcd a tot of suUlea on Col ton avenue, and before we had fairly started the hack had sene down nnu the Hank axle mapped. Tho horses tried to extricate themselves from the first heck, while th* driver ami myseh were trying to control them.

I am opposed to traveling an Sunday, so I waited until Sunday night to nwiko another atari. Thl* time I aent -Saratoga" down by the trap-frf ihre* hour* before train time, and two huura afterward I started out on fool foe th* depot. 1 did not ride on Mat.

Richmond, Va, Aug. 21.—A Covington special to the Dispatch says: Court met yesterday morning, pursuant to adjourn ment on Saturday, and after considerable delay Goodman was brought In to be sen tenced. He came along for the first time during the trial. His wife was absent, but was with him in Jail until ihe court sent for him. The prisoner was cool and calm. He waa greet*! by his attorneys cordially and sat bohind them In the bar. MaJ. Crump arose and submitted a mo tion In arrest of judgment, which was overruled by the court and an exception taken. Tho clerk then directed the pris oner to stand up. and asked the usual questions oa to whether he had anything to say why sentence should not -be pro nounced on him. The prisoner responded In a low but distinct and clear .voice that he had nothing to say. and the judge proceeded with the sentence of eighteen years In the penitentiary. Goodman's counsel moved for a stay of execution un til October R, pending an appeal. This was granted by the court without agree ment, and the afternoon was spent In preparing bills of exception. A number of points have been raised by the defense and exceptions token to the rulings of the court, but only one seems to be much relied upon «a a cause for setting aside the verdict. This Is the admission ot Staple’s testimony. It la held by the de fense that a letter charging improper conduct with a station agent's wife at 8t. Peter Cave will not and cannot apply to a charge of Improper conduct with the wife of a section master at Spring Wood. On the other hand, the prisoner admitted both by his letters and on the stand that he thought that the Staples matter was directly referred to in the parson's letter. v CRABD BY PRINK.
