Because a servile racowas performing the la- ( bor of those States, making it dishonorable there; and because none of the laborers of that region belonged to this great creative race, who alone could have given tho stimulus to tho material development of tho 8outhem States which they have given to that of the Northern States. • * Does anybody pretend to tell me that it is a blessing to this country that those people are here? It to no fault of ours that they arc here; It to no fault of theirs; it to tho fault of a past generation; but their presence hero to a great misfortune to us today, and tho question of the adjustment of the relations between the two races socially and politically to no nearer to a settlement now than It was tho day Sum ter was fired upon. The philosophy of the history of every age and our experience of the last seventeen years jnstify mo In making the prophecy that tho African race will never bo permitted perma nently to dominate any State of tho South. Tho experiment of conferring upon them po litical power in proportion to their numbers has thus far proved a dismal failure, and In my judgment will so continue as long as human nature to os It to. The failure has not been be cause wc have not done everything wo could to make It succeed, but because laws Inde pendent of and above all human laws havo Irrevocably stamped upon tho one race its sm periority over the other. • * * « There never were more truthful words spo ken; but it to one thing to aspire to bo free from personal servitude and a very different thing to have the Intelligence, the self-containment, the great qualities of character that can direct and support free government. Docs anybody believe If the restraining, the directing, tho guiding intellect of tho white man that now surrounds the African In the South were en tirely taken away aud he wns left to maintain our institutions alone, that he could do It? I do not know how my friends on this side of tho House may feel, but I for one do not believe that they could bo maintained without impair ment for a period of ten years. This judgment may seem to some to be harsh and unwarrant ed, but it to the truth ns I sec it. . Suppose then that when the first ship-loid of Africans wa» landed In this country some one hod risen on the floor of ono of the assemblies of the States and opposed their landing because they would In the end prove the source of im mense disturbance In the country, because their presence would occasion a great civil war, be cause they would produoo precisely the effects wc have since seen that they have produced In the South, how true these views would have been, though doubtless they would have been regarded as groundless and fanciful alarms. And, digressing for ono minute, I ask Senators to reflect wliat would have been the condition of this entire country if the same proportion of Africans hod been In the North as were In the South ? I say, then, suppose that objecting to this immigration of an incongruous race, of a race that could not assimilate or amalgamate with us, this speaker had urged the exclusion of the negro from our country, ho would nave uttered wise words and given sound advice, The negro, looking for a return of the old days when a political boost might at any moment be expected, is saluted with the charge that he is a disadvantage to his country; that the country would be better off manned by the white race; that he is the cause of intellectual stagnation South; that the experiment of conferring upon him political power was a dismal failure; that he could not run the country ten years if it were given oyer to him that had the negro been excluded from this country, it would have been a blessing. We are not here to pat Senator Jones on the back, or bid the negro rebel. Wo are simply pointing out to him that the party which claims to have been his friend and bene factor has cast him off. And is it not true that the words of Jones,from Nevada, were the echoes of the President. How many negroes hold offices of any impor tance in Geoigia? Two only, if we re member aright. And yet the President but recently has had gifts in his hands which, despite the claims of those colored men, be has busied himself in bestowing upon renegade Democrats, and broken down white Republicans. It is true, and some of the more intelligent colored men recognize, and protest against it. Belcher, of the Savannah Echo, and White, of the Augusta Advocate, have added their pro tests to others which have gone forward to Washington, not nnder seal. It is fact that Georgia boasts ol more educated colored men than any other State. Why is it the President places an ignorant white man in office, and leaves out edu cated colored men? Where now will the negro turn for friends ? Not to the little baud of plun derers who have organized as coalitionists. The negro has nothing to expect from them. There are not enough offices to go round the white table,much less serve the kitchen. Besides, these men are to do the bidding of the administration, and it is not likely that they will disagree with the President when be says, the negro as a politician is a dismal failure ; the of ficers are for you. No, the negro has, and has never had, but ono class friendly to him in every sense of the word. The great body of Southern people have stood by him through all tho varying changes of his fate. Let the negro join hands with him and let the aliens alone. Here all his interests lie, here must bo mak'o his living and rear up his family; here must he educate and fit himself for regen eration. Assimilation and miscegenation are ghosts of a dead fear. Tho white peo ple smile over them and society protects Itself. In every movement toward worldly and intellectual improvement the colored man will find helpers by his side. Tho public schools are for him as for bis while friends, and the law is equal, the rauting politician and the lying demagogue to the contrary notwithstanding. peculiar stand taken by the leading ne groes in the matter of public schools, at a recent meeting held in that city. The two changes advocated in pub lic schools at this meeting by tbs educated speakers, negroes, were that there should be for negro schools, negro teachers only, and that the color line should bo oblite rated at least so far as to allow of mixed schools. In discussing these questions, which, by tho way, seen/to have been met by an almost affirmative spirit In the meeting, some strange and dangerons sen timents were expressed by the speakers. One of the orators of the evening was Professor J. E. Jones. We quote from the report of the proceedings: He said his convictions were decidedly in favor of mixed schools, and in opposition to all othen; not that ho was specially anxious to come Into contact with the white man in order to he bettered by the association—for ho did believe this possible—but he thought It bwt on the ground of economy, because It would Akc schools more numerous in districts which un der present regulations paid tax and had no schools. In the further course of his romarks he declared that “constant contact would break down all barriers, and complete assimilation teould bc^c final result. It was only a question ofmnc when all this would come to pass.”’ Another speaker favored the golden rule, that Inasmuch as tbero were white teachers in colored schools, there should be colored teachers in white schools. Other speeches followed in tho same strain. This condition of affaire may be traced at once to the Mahone insurrection, which has placed a false value upon the negro’s rights and prospects, and has misled him into believing that this government and civilization hinges on the colored man. To us it is unimportant. Senator Hill, in discussing Viigluia politics, has said that the State is not ieadlDg off in a new po litical movement, but merely suffering from an epidemic of false ideas through which the other States have already passed; that she will in time resume lier former status and rid herself of the encumbrance. He has stated the situation briefly and correctly. Georgia and other Southern States have been threatened with miscegenation and assimilation, and have seen tho bubbles buret harmlessly in every section. Igno rance can no more triumph over educa tion and civilization than cau pov erty overwhelm capital. Gradually the rule of ignorance established over the Southern territory gave way before intelligence and the element placc^ln power by the bayonet suck" to its own level. There is no resurrection for it. For every colored man in this broad country there is an opportunity for advancement equal to that of any white man of the same mental and moral pow er. His power will never again exceed his intelligence. We might temper these words by the assertion that there is for the a’mbitious negro opportunities which no wbifb min of equal intelligence pos sesses. Before him lies his race wrapt in igno rance and to a great extent, poverty. They need teachers, counsellors, preach ers and leaders. To reform, redeem and improve the condition of this race, is a mission which any man might with honor and profit undertake, but which by rea son of a common brotherhood and race- sympathy, a colored man can best succeed in. Sucb a line of ambition will bring him the assistance and admiration of the good men of all classes ; would yield hmi more honor and the race more lasting benefit than any other line of attain ments. Should such a man become qualified to represent in any sphere his people, or the people at large, there should be no opposition to him on account of “race, color or previous condition.’ But he mast command respect before he can lead. His field now is not in politics. He must lift up and bear forward his peo ple; make their labor more remunera tive by educating the laborer; make their advancement possible by elevating their moral tone. But first ol all, these people must realize that the policy of the govern ment and the party which delivered them into an over appreciation of their power and possibilities, has been entirely chang ed; that their sudden spurt into power ten years ago was a political movement upheld by the bayonet, and that both the men and the hour have passed. In view of the recent utterances in Congress, this- cannot be doubted. Senator Edmunds, the leading Republican, and representing the abolition corner of the country, rose in bis seat on the 0th inst. to speak upon the Chinese bill. His words were signif icant: “I doubt whether the people of Massachu setts would desire that im migration of the people of Africa to that great and noble old commonwealth «hould be encouraged. The people of Massachusetts (I speak of them ab extra, although as a Senator of the United States I have a right to speak of them if not for them) I do not think wonld be hungry*for an irruption of a million of'the inhabitants of the continent of Africa to-day, or to-morrow, or next year, not because the people of Massa chusetts hare any hostility to the African, not became they do not desire hto development, bis growth, hi* education, every amelioration that may belong to him, but because they be lieve bj instinct or by education that It to not good for the two races to be brought Into that kind of contact in that place.” This in behalf of the State that gave birth to Charles Sumner. But this is not all. Colorado, in the samQ discussion, sends out Tcilor to state that the negro was not equal in intellectual power to the Caucasian race; and to state it twice, when the negro, not tho Chinese, was discussed. But it was’rcserved for Jones, of Nevada, to fold up the mantle which ha3 eo long hidden the real sentiments of> t ho Republican pai ty. Jones, of Nevada be it remembered, is in thorough accorff with the present administration, Grant And the stalwart ring. It was Jones who sheltered Arthur in his privato residence at Washington for weeks after Garfield’s death, and during tliQ time when it was feared that auother Guiteau might seek the White House. The Senator from Nevada has always represented the Presi- dent, and bis words must be taken as ex pressing to a large extent the views of the administration. Speaking upon this same race issue, engendered by the Chinese dis cussion, the administration mouth-piece says: Sir, I am In favor of thl» bill because I be lieve It to be an advance tn public law, nmk- lng It conform to the law that nature has writ ten on the face of the physical universe and upon the face of man.

The receipts for the week ending on Friday night last were, 01,010 bales, against 03,090 in 1SS1, and against 53,410 for 1880.

Under the above heading, the Sumter /cartindulges in some obserrations to which our attention has been directed. A week or so ago the following from the special Leesburg correspondent of the Atlanta Conftilutlon attracted our notice. - Judge Crisp is decidedly the favorite in this community f»r Congress. Tho grand jury upon being polled ttood nineteen for Crisp and four for Cook. j , It was at once reproduced with a short criticism upon tho impropriety of judges, while und«r commission and holding seats upon the bench, entering Into a canvass for political honors and office. Our readers are perhaps familiar with the paragraph containing our views, and it is Ibereforo unnecessary to reproduce it. We desire to state that wo have no change or amendmeat to make or to add to, what was then wntten. The Republican com ments in thif way: The Mepub'.lcan Is no more tho champion of Judge Crisp than it to that of General Cook, but It desires to sec justice dune to both par ties. The comments of tho Teleorato and Messenger we think does Judge Crisp great injustice in charging him with polling tlie ju ries of hto clrefit for political purposes. Now, wo were present at Lee court and happen to know exactly how It occurred. After tho de liberations and business of the grand jury were over, some members of tho body suggested that a voto be taken os to the strength of the two gentlemen, anil tho result was reached as stated above. Judge Crisp had nothing to do with it, and knew nothing about it until tho adjournment of court. * * * * It to by no mc^bs unusual for judicial officers to accept political preferment. Chief Justice Chase sought tho Democratic nomination In 1868, Justice -Field in 1876, and Justice Davis was elected to tho United States Senate. It is understood that Justice Martin J. Crawford of the State Supreme Qpurt-to a candidate for Governor, as was Chief Justice Warner In 1880, ana Jndgo Buchanan was on the Bench of tho Coweta circuit when nominated to Congress in I860. Why theu attack Judgo Crisp? Is this a fair way to advocate tho claims of General Cook? We think noL This to not the first time the Teleguapii and Messeng er has undertaken to meddle itself and control this district in tho Interests of Gen. Cook. We would most respectfully suggest to our contemporary that its personal or po litical preferences, predilections or preju dices are foreigu to tho discussion. It is a matter of no, importance who the Re publican is for. The issue is with Judge Crisp. If he, by himself or through his partisans, from court to- court on his spring riding is having juries polled, as was published in the Atlanta Constitu tion, then his conduct in our judgment and opinion is reprehensible. No cause should ever be given in any way to arouse the remotest suspicion that tho unseen power and influence which a judge wields over lawyers, juries and parties litigant, is being used lu any way to advance his political or personal aims. The converse of this proposition would undermine the judiciary in ’popular confidence and re spect. When Judge Crisp heard of this extraordinary performance, alter the ad journment of court, he could have done himself great credit by summoning the editor of tho Sumter Republican and the accompanying parties, and giving them to understand that it should not be repeated at the court in course. Whether it bo “by no means unusual” or not “lor judicial officers to accept po litical preferment” i3 not a matter that belongs to this discussion. Nor is the Re publican happy yr its references. Judges Chase, Davis and Field were of the Su preme bench of the United States, far re moved above the people who' voto and manage elections. They had no juries to be polled either by themselves or their partisans. And "so with Judges Warner and Crawford. In the case of the latter geutlemau he had made distinct publica tion of the fact, that ho would not in any way be a party to the canvass for tho gubernatorial nomination. If he has vio lated that pledge given to the public, the fact Las escaped our observation. But admitting that Judges Chase, Davis, Field, Warner and Crawford did wrong, this fact cannot possibly bo so tortured as to make what was a wrong upon their part a right when followed by Judge Crisp. Tho Telegraph has made no attack upon Judge Crisp. It has merely set the seal of its condemnation upon an act her alded in a public print as hiving occurred at a court presided over by Judge Crisp. Tho Sumter Republican is simply mis taken when it undertakes to say that this journal has at any time, or in any way, attempted to meddle with or control the third district in tho interest of General Cook or any one else. Its circulation is not bounded by the limits of the third or the sixth congres sional districts any more than its utter ances are to bo measured or shaped, by what may be or may not be agreeable to tho Sumter Republican, or any other in fluence. Tho Telegraph in common with the citizens of tho entire State and country, is interested in the maintenance of a pure and undefiied judiciary- Without it jus tice becomes a farce, and human life, lib erty and property are mado the playthings of a political mob. It is tho servant or partisan of no man, no ring, clique or organization, and is tho friend of all who would keep the courts clean, and would purgo aud purify party politics as far as possible. • ’■ . Tlie Silent Man. As part of tho preliminary plan when it was decided to make Grrfht a Republican leader and politician, it. was given out that ho was a silent man, a sphynx from whoso couutenanco nothing of inner thought cou'Id be read. Such is the im pression that solemn and owlish looking people make upon tho multitude, that tho shrewd trainer who took him in hand de termined to mystify the populace at tho outset. The jrick succeeded and such are the staying powers of first impressions, Grant to this day is spoken of as tho silent man, and people who may not have seen him, and do not read and think mnch, still believo him to bo a gloomy, taciturn, impenetrable person. There was never an impression farther romoied from a fact. When under the nervous depression produced by a debauch, he is silent as is every other man, iu a like con dltion from a similar cause. He is silent, we may say grim, glum, grum. When he desire8tobe rude, which is not Infre quent, he is cold and still. But ordina rily he is aj garrulous as a sailor-board ing-house-parrot, and about as intelligent. He has a loose tongue, a very foul one, and a “memory whose treachery to Ids tongue Is constancy itself. In the early days of his Presidential career, when John B. Baldwin, of Vjrglnia, was sent to see him at Washington, k with a view of lightening the burdens cf military rule upon the peo ple, ha related upon Ids return how fear fully he had been bored by the stream of loquacity dressed In villainous gram mar tliat welled out from Grant. Since | that day, from one cad of ll.e habitable globe to tbo other, this man has been talking drivel, mostly iu the shape of slander upon other and better men. It is of rgcord that Andrew Johnson, who did not cling to truth with the same tenacity with which he clutched the constitution, charg ed him with lying and, what was worse, proved tho charge well laid, by his cabi net officers. It Is not at all improbable that if Grant’s speeches,talks and interviews might be col lated from the culnmns of the public press it would be shown that ho has indulged In more speech than any President of tbo Uniftd States,that he has for a fact talked more, and said less that is' calculated to be remembered than any American who has preceded him iu public life, Henry S. Foote not excepted. Of late he has scarce ly appeared in public prints save in de famation ,or bellttlement of some one who had won his displeasure. His most distinguished effort in tbisrespect was dur ing the close of the Garfield and Hancock campaign, when aftor an attempt to depre date tho masterly services and character of Hancock,which he attempted to deny, he afterwards stumped the Siato of New York, with a speech full of disgusting and untruthful assaults upon the people of the South, whom but a few months previous he bespattered with praise. His garrulity grows with bis age, and his malignant temper does not seem to soften under the touch of time. At present ho is in Wash ington controlling and directing the ap pointments of Arthur, to the benefit of the flunkies and friends who stitl adulate him. Very recently he took occasion to deny some talk of his in which he had made a brutal assault upon General Rosencrans aud Mr. Hewitt. This was had in the course ofan Interview with a Mr. Thomas M. Nlchol, and was made public by rea son cf the discussion of Blaine’s unfortu nate eulogimn on Garfield. The New York Herald has followed the matter up and produces the following from Mr. Nichol. The question is not the dignity of Grant or my insignificance, but who is right about the incident in question. I remember the conver sation and what was said as well as I remem ber any Incident in sny life, and when General Grant disputes what I have said I have no more hesitation about contradicting him than I would have If he were a bootblack. If I am right ho simply don't remember it; that's all. If he Is right I havo manufactured a conversa- ' tion os a contribution to a pending controversy, and am a liar. I distinctly reaffirm what I said in tbo Journal. Grant did say that Garfield could never speak to cither Hewitt or Rosecrans; that Rosc- crans would have sunk Into obscurity and con tempt long ago if it had not been for Garfield; that he never was fit to command an army, and he repeated three times that he was what he called ‘a constitutional insubordinate and couldn’t obey orders, and that he would ruin any army tn the world unless It was saved by the intelligence of subordinate officers and men.” In conclusion, Mr. Nlchol said: “I am not of those who think the public care much about my Individuality, but if they seem to care to know more about who has told the truth in this case, I am not nt all alarmed as to the effect on myself. I said what I said in Chicago with a fall realization of the fact that I might be called on to support it.” In view of the record, the reputation and the convenient memory of the silent man, it is not at all likely that Mr. Nich ol will suffer any loss of credit in popu lar estimation. It would havo been bet ter for Grant’s fame if bo bad been a Sphynx in fact rather than in name. If wo were not afraid that Mayor English wonld want to stand in with ns too heavy, we would like to have the red lemonade and pie-stand privilege at the Independent show on tho 1st of Jane. “There’s millions in it.” It is 'scarcely necessary to observe, at this early date, that wo do not refer to the Richmond comity watermelon.

Mr. Smith soya; “He appeared to be familiar with the political situation in Georgia, and spoke of the probability of his brolher, the Governor, succeeding Sen ator Ben Hill, who is ill with cancer of tho mouth, should tho malady provo fatal.” And that was too many for the piano and the pocket book.

It was exhibited at the Cotton Exposition, and took n gold medal, a blue ribbon, a diploma, and an honorable men tion, though they have not yet been deliv ered. In a recent speech Hon. W. D.

Wiloox, ono of Mahone’s hench men in tho Virginia Legislature, is a man of foresight, and is not likely to bo loft. A few days since in open meeting he arose and announced himself as a full-fledged Republican. A Washington dispatch in a notice of tho event says: “Tho Republi cans hail with great delight Senator Wil cox’s announcement of his conversion to tlo Republican faith. They look upon it as only tho beginning of gre&tor things. Said one of them to-day, “Wilcox is only the first bird of tbo early spring; we shall have the whoio Rond juste r fleck by tho fall eloctions.’' Tlie examplo of Mr. Wilcox is worthy of tho serious consideration of tho Markham Honse party.

It is made evident by unmistakable signs that trouble has arisen iu the coali tion ranks. Stated in brief, Col. Thorn ton is mad, and has led the organ of the new party into revolt. In the last issue of the Post-Appeal he rises up to call Longstreet the “Georgia Boss,” and the coalition a “syndicate.” Bnt this is not all. In commenting upon tho nom ination of Pledger for the surveyor-ship of Atlanta, a position, by the way, to which the Colonel himself asfired, he goes so far as to state that the nomination was made “at the Instance oi a syndicate of played-out Georgia politicians, who seem to have risen to the surface rehabilitated with some ephemeral authority.” Nor is tho Colonel’s choice of English limited to these few descriptive phrases, in discussing a section of the great and good party of which but recently he has so enthusiastically written. He goes fur ther. Indeed, he is bold enough to say that “there is not a member of the syndi cate who can command the votes of their own party, much less briog recruits into the formation of a new party. Some of the syndicate are men who have held Fed eral positions, and emerged from office in delibly besmirched with the taint of dis honesty.” To leave no false impression upon the public mind, the Colonel, with his accustomed frankness, states, openly, the names of the men who compose the syndicate, some of whom are indelibly “ besmirched with the taint of dishonesty.” We are informed that they are James Atkins, A. N. Wilson, Dr. J. W* Arnold, James Longstreet, Henry P. Farrow, aud A. E. Buck. Pause we here to sum up the situation and reform the lines. It is evident that harmony between Colonel Thornton and the syndicate is now an impossibility, He has summarily kicked the syndicate into outer darkness, leaving upon the base of its new official garment the Im print of his polished boot. With one skillful stroke, ho has severed the silken bands with which Parson Felton, act ing as high priest, so recently bound to gether the young couple, and has disobey ed the injunction so impressively pro nounced, “Whom necessity and self-inter est have joined together, let no man put asunder.” In short, he has divorced the syndicate a vinculo matrimonii, and by the same vast act himself, politically speaking, a mensa el thoro. As wo be fore remarked, here pauso wo to reform the lines. From Colonel Thornton’s standpoint, tho State now fathers the dreadful Bourbon party, the syndicate and the Georgia Independents. Exactly where the fight between these tbreo is to open, we are not prepared to say. Col. Thornton lays some stress upon the fact that Farrow and Pledger of the syndicate division are not yet confirmed and it may be that he proposes to bulldoze the administration into a withdrawal of their nominations. We cannot toll. To our mind it looks as if we are to have what might be called a waiting contest, in which the relative constitutions of ali are to be tested. In this event it is well to examine tho relativo strength of the parties. The Bourbons have all of the State, county and municipal offices, and are,' in the soft, sensuous terms of our modern, language “well heeled.” The syndicate is in possession of the Federal offices, and being but a small organization is In a condition to withstand a protracted siege. But the Independent faction is out to grass, feeding about on the shrubs and the early spring shoots as it were, with an unbridgtd gap between the twig and the blackberry season star ing it in the face, and nothing to bridge over tlie desert waste which lies between the departing blackberry and the prospec tive tender persimmon which, if reached, would support them until the ballot box determined the victors in the final fight. It cannot be denied that the Independents are less favorably situated than their op- poncLts; still, thoy have to back them the genius of Felton, the startling perceptions of Elder Hook, aud the indomitable ener gy and courage of Colonel Thornton. With these at hand, the division cannot be looked upon as poverty-stricken. Mo ses led the children of Israel through the desert, and it may be that Colonel Thorn ton will himself find a way to guide his party from between the devil and the deep sea. The eyes of a great people are upon him- Tbe Floods and Crops. Reports from tbe West indicate that the waters of the Mississippi are rapidly rece- ding from the cotton lands, and under a generous sun and fair winds, planters may soon goto work again. The latest trouble seems to be that tho accumulated waters have broken into and overflowed the sugar lands. These, too, will soon be relieved If there is a cessation cf the un precedented rainfalls we have been treat ed to of late. While the planters will be greatly crippled by the loss of mules, horses, stock of all kinds, aud houses and b&ns, these losses may be repaired in time. The sediment left by tbo subsi ding waters on the overflowed lands is equal, if not quite superior to a heavy coating of costly fertilizers, and this may be put down as a gain, though a very costly one. Bat there Is still time and opportunity to make a crop. It is said that after tho great Mississippi overflow of 1858, when tho river bottom had been covered with water for weeks, the cotton crop was the largest over Mcown, and that in 1878 the lands yielded grandly. Let .ns hope that 18S2 may follow in the* footsteps of the years that have gone before. Mississippi planters cannot hope to re produce tbe success of 1S5S, for then labor was permanent, well disciplined aud plentiful. If they can repeat the experi ence of 1878, it will be as much as they may reasonably hope for. Tbe principal difficulty will be Id pro curing labor. Many negroes and white people also will be permanently frighten ed away by the devastation they have witnessed. But the greatest danger Is thattli9 local politicians may seize upon the opportunity offered by tho free distri bution of government rations, to keep the negioin idleness and in training for the coming elections. So long as bacon and bread are freely furnished tjiere will be a lack of labor. Some years since this thing was illustrated in Alabama. Portions of the State lying on the Alabama and Tom- bigbeo rivers were inundated by a freshet of uuusual force, and such was the dam age that the government unlocked its commissary depot*. The result was that Radical politicians in the upper portions of the State, where there had not been rainfall sufficient to drown a cat, were supplied with provis ions to buy tbe colored ve tej. These tac tics will bo resorted to again, and should be guarded against, if possible. If an average crop cannot be made in tba Mississippi bottoms, tho present out look promises that in the fall a good price may be realized upon whatever is made. It Warn the Cook: ■\Yben V. Hugo stepped aside and po litely bowed to his old Guernsey cook, he only revealed to a startled looker-on, his appreciation of the tact that cooks are entitled to infinite respiect. The literary circles have never produced a kitchen philosopher, and the world generally has but a faint idea of the fearful responsibili ty that rests with the beings who superin tend the stomach fuel. This French man who is accredited with having recently remarked, “I must soon cease to fill tbe world,” was a keeu student, and wise enough to perceive that the man who fills a world is haraly bigger than the cook whose duty ’tig to Jfill him. Perhaps iu his idle moments, when tlie spirit of investigation was upon him he bad solved the mystery of moods aud traced his comfortable feelings back to a particularly tender and digestible dish; perhaps when the horrors seized him and be began to write, his mind reverted to a too liberal spreadiug of pale de foie gras. The idea runs away with itself. May not we see in this internal firing up, the whole basis of tbo French school? May not St. Pierre’s Paul and Virginia rest upon a tender and well cooked cutlet, ap plied when the air was strong with vital power? Doss not tho fearfnl conflict with a devil fish from the Toilers wear tbe garments of a journalized nightmare, born of an extravagant intimacy with overdone frog legs and rubber truffles snatched between the midnight strokes of Notre Dame bells ? No wonder the old man stood aside in the passage with de ferential bow when the cook passed him He might grith dignity have offered her his arm and escort to her destination. V. Hugo, be it remembered, is but an isolated instance. If a badly cooked supper falling into the rough and ready stomach of a man of the world, could have caused grotesque and blood-curdling emotions to appear in outline upon paper, what may not chunks of grease impreg nated boar steak have effected in the nu merous Imperial stomachs, which, let us hope, are now at rest. Might it not have been a leaden biscuit droppe^teto tbe delicate digestive centre of o!u Queen Bess that sent Mary’s head rolling on the sward? Is it not within the range of pos sibilities that a series of eggs boiled too hard even tor the interior of a veteran Roman, caused the disturbance 'between J. Brutus and J. Cassar? Again, is it unreasonable to ask why Cassius was lean and hungry—on whom would you lay the blame, nature or the cook? Is black bread nihilism, or is the watery potato concentrated rebellion? Was it American hard fock that hung Major Andre? We cannot tell; the man to work out these mysteries has not yet been appointed, and in the expressive language of tbe late lamented Dundreary, they are things “that no fellah can find out.” Science has not dealt fairly with this cook and cooking question. The most we have wrested from her is a list of things wo may eat; but she absolutely de clines to furnish a catalogue of what we ought to eat and how to cook it. It is true we can experiment, but experiments in this quarter are dangerous and unsatis factory. Thoy are liable to fill the land with bad law, bad politics, bad religion ana bad manners, and if it so chance, in the course of experiments, that now and then the cook buoys us up with an acci dental dish of far-reaching vitality, it only encourages us into excesses from which there is no masterly retreat. A dish that tickles the palate may throw tho stomach into convulsions and vice versa. Ob, we can experiment. But a rr an never is exactly certain when he has a good thing; and when lie strikes a bad one he rarely ever has an opportunity to advise on the subject. It may be that in the.dim past there are those well qualified to write treatises on cooking; but tbe fact remains that their publishing opportuni ties are few, and the line of communica tion leads the wrong way to do us any good. . We of the South, above all others, need a little light on this subject. We who m sharp relief standout among the people of the world, not as the greatestgluttons, but as the moat liberal browsers. Where the Continental sits him down to a loaf of bread and bottle of weak wiue; where the Emerald islander drops to his milk and praties; where Scotland feasts on two dishes, England on three and Italy on one, we are not content with less than half a dozen. Half a dozen is a mild limit. Look at your dinner tables when the market is good; two meats, two breads, five vegetables, soap, pickles, high seasonings, dessert and liq uids ad libitum. But it is not the va riety that affects your religion, or runs your spirits down grade. Have those po tatoes had the nourishment boiled out of them? Is that rice cooked enough for a billy goat? Ate those green peas to fin ish their swelling in your Interior? Has that meat been left a mass of fibre ? You don’t know. But you will know after awhile that something is sapping tbe foundation of your spirits and patience. A Frenchman once said be heard an oys ter swallowed two hours previously swear audibly. Peoplesaid it was the Frenchman. By tho by, who taught your cook her art? You don’t know, nor does the cook. And yet you trust her with the life and happiness of yourself and family. You put into her hands something as in destructible as alcohol itself—grease— and turn her loose. Then to make her as effective as possible you'supply her witn a frying pan. The most dangerous crea ture that walks is a cook armed with fat and a frying pan. Her value as an agent may be summed up iu a few words If on seven-tenths of the tombstones scat tered about us was carved the figure ol a negro woman, holding aloft, banner fashion, a frying pan, there would be no need of incriptions other than the victim’s names. The emblem would show the cause of death, and apologize for the er rors in tbe lives it commemorated.

Democratic Rebellion In Georgia, it* York Herald. The opposition to the old-fashioned. *r, as It is called, tho Bourbon element In Democratic: politics in Geoigia, has assumed the very prac tical form ofan address to the ‘‘people’^of the State, signed by some responsible gentlemen and a call for a Stato convention next June. , The address is in many respects a political on- rioolty. It is a mixture of Whigism, Democracy and modern Republicanism, demanding pro tection for home.industry: gold and silver as the money of the constitution, and the “big gest kind ot an appropriation.” One sentc-nob & worth quoting, ft reads: “Wo believo that it Is no longer patriotic to )>o partisan, but that, as the two parties now powerful . in tho country are® at Issue on no governmental v>Hp- les It to wise fora people, who aspire to P fra- .^lal relations coexistent with the country, to bury sectional strife and to elevate politics 'o the consideration of thoaematerial questions In which the whole country is rllallT Interested and to this end It is especial wisdom lor our immediate people to select political agencies competent by liberality on principle to offer such a policy to the entire people.” It Is significant that the Geor- Srfa Democratic Journals which approve thlsinsurrectiqnan: movement print the name of Alexander H.
