The New York Herald puts it neatly, thus: “Has the Senate any more right to require ot the President hie reasons for re- movala than the President has to require of the Senate its reaaone for rejections?” Ex-Gov. Ckittkndkn, of Missouri, de sired to go abroad. Senator Vent wrote him: “When Cockrell named yon the President said he conld not entertain the idea; that in the East yon were believed to to havo bargained with the Fords for the kill ing of Jesse James, and whether true or not he conld not shoulder public opinion on the subject. We endeavored to explain tin- matter, but he was very firm and cut us off with tho remark that he ‘could not think of it' I think you ought to know this in justice to Cockrell, anyhow. I have not given all the conversation, but the above ie the substance of it." Tho ex-governor is mad, and takas occasion to say sp. Jnnx Logan aspires to bo a historian, and yet he says no man who over served as Senator bccawo President. John's infor mation is as bad as his grammar. Seven different persons have been elected Presi dent who had previomly served in tho Senate—lames Monroe, 17'JO-'.tl; John Q. Adame, 1803 3, Andrew Jackson, twice, 1897-8. and 1823-1 ; Martin Van Bnren, 1821-8; William Henry Harnson, 1825-8; Franklin Pierce, 1837-42, and James Buchanan, 1834-13. John Tyler and An drew Johnson, eaoh elected Vice-President with the view of his becoming President in thn event of the death of that officer (which ocourred), had previously served as United States Senators—Tyler, 1827-33 ; Johnson, 1857-83. Senator Vance says the bill he has in- trodncod repealing the civil service law antright will be fonnd to have more sup porters than is generally supposed now be fore Congress adjourns. He says there are a good many Democrats and some ltepnbli- cans who agree with him that the only w{y to make the elvil service law satisfactory to the people of the country is to strike every word of it ont of the statnto kooks, IIo is confident that he can get a good following on both sides of the Senate if he can get his bill before that body for action. A gentleman who is informed abont the views of Senator Logan, says Vanco is right so far us the Illinois Senator Is conoornod, as Logan would not hesitate to vote for a re peal bill. “In my The First Skirmish. Congress is patting on s little more-life. After the delivering of sundry speeches on pensions, in which various members en deavored to put in as much buncombe as possible, the parties in tho House joined in the first real exciting partisan skirmish. Mr. Herbert, who led the Democrats, behaved admirably, and Mr. Wise bore off the honors of the debate. It is gratifying to know that the Democrats were right, and that they made this appear very clearly to the country. They were in their places when called for, end thus con tributed to the victory. It does not yet appear if this was the resnlt of discipline, or whether the brawny whipper-in, Ike Hill, gathered the vote from committee rooms, saloons snd other less reputable resorts, the fact that the Democratic majority was there and available is a good sign, especi ally so when it is more than doubtful if the Democratic majority of the House has won the active sympathy of a so-called Demo cratic administration. Heretofore in con tests between Democrats and Republicans, the first have illustrated the militia and the latter the regulars. Tho attempt of the Bepnblicans to open a partisan debate was indefensible, and in the skirmish which followed, they were nn horsed and shamefully pnt to flight. The careless observer would probably not see more than this in it. Bat there was a show :) rancor and temper that utterly drowns II the twaddle abont the death of section alism. The Republican party is as sectional as ever, and only lacks the power and op portunity to relegato the South again to military rnle. The wish expressed to tear down the monuments erected to the Southern dead shows up in its true light tho Northern heart. There may ho a presB here and there that will attempt to pooli pooh this whole proceeding, but the Republican party in the House on Friday last correctly repre sented the Republican party of the North, including the deserting Mugwumps. It is a galling reflection to the Nortli that aided by the hired hirelings from the four quarters of the globe it was enabled to force the South down and to rob and insult it, bnt was nnable to crush the manhood of its people. The monuments erected to the Southern dead, illustrative of a righteous cause, will stand, until distroyed by time. They were erected by people, whose descendants are capable of preserving their work. The South has shown a willingness to forget nnd forgive, bat it cannot bo forced into dishonorable denials. The government has exhausted the large stock of cannon, can non halls, muskets and bayonets left over from (he war, in building monuments to the hirelings who did the fighting of tho North. The South is quite willing that theso ahull stand, and that the jnstieo and merits of tho quarrel shall be arbitrated by the pcoplo of ooiulng generations. Dn. Fallen of St. Louis says: opinion tho practice of medicine will be revolutionized within the next few years. We will live to see tho student and success ful practitioner of to-day retire altogether from th« actual practice of medicine, and establish himself as a consulting physician oiiy The learned snrgeon or physician of the future will devote more time and at tention to the prevention than to the care of disease. It is no great trick to learn to set a fractured hone or prescribe a dose of salts. Such things will bo below tho great doctors of mediaine, and will he relegated to a class of practitioners about on a par with what are now called nurses. Hygiene and sanitation will be the study of the physician of the fntnre. Of course lie must have a knowledge of drugs, anatomy, physiology and such matters, but his of- flee will be that of a consultant. The bone- setters and drug-preseribers will lay their caaes before him, and he will advise them pretty mnch as the advice of an old estab lished counselor at law is sought by nn at torney* The great question of the future will not bo so mnch tho core ss the preven tion of disease." To Mr. Itoiltellr, of Maine. The only inscription upon the old war eannon of the South, now legible, is that written by tub hand of time in lottcra of ivy and framed in flowors. The monu ments of which you complain are dumb testimonials reared by woman's hands to preserve the memory of their dead. The acton in the bloody struggles hnvo lain down their arms for all eternity, and as the yean roll on, company after company falls asleep upon them. Only lovo nnd hatred survive, tho love that speaks In monuments and in patriot ism; tho hatred that finds expression in lies anil misrepresentations. Let the coun try judgo betwoen the two. Ferry Rklmont has gotten himself into a scrape. A Washington special says: “There are queer things turning up in the whirligig -of time and none more qnecr, certain Dem ocrats are saying now, than tho appoint ment of H. Conquest Clark by Mr. Belmont as clerk lo the committee of foreign affars. Ten years ago Clark was before tho country in tho suspected capacity of both forger and perjurer in the great steal of the Presiden cy. Clark was private secretary to Gov- «rnor Kellogg, of Louisiana, and was inti- mately concerned in fixing up the bogus certificates presented at Washington before the Electoral Commission. He was charged with having forged ‘he name of LevUse and another elector to the certificates and swore that men signed them whose resi dence was ont of New Orleans snd all the circumstance* made it an apparent impossi bility. In Gibson’s ‘Political Crime' Clark is charged with both perjury and forgery in so many words. From page 173, chapter 10, the history of Clark's share in tho lTra- idential steal is given at length, along with a review of the testimony. Democrats are naturally indignant that a man writb such a record, and especially upon the Hayes-Til- den crime, should be selected by the Damo- erotic chairman of a Democratic committee ^ a Democratic House for a position of 1 sod honor." Tobacco culture. Recently, an attempt has been made to interest the farmers of Georgia in tho cul tivation of tobacco. This is bailed with pleasure, for every year demonstrates more plainly, that we cannot support onr popu lation upon the cultivation of cotton alone, and grow prosperous and strong. Any variation in our productive industries will be welcome. Tobacco was onco cultivated to a consid erable extent in Georgia, until superseded by cotton, and onr red lands stimulated by commercial fertilizers should make tobacco a paying crop. Tho Commissioner of Agriculture is pre pared to furnish Oronoco seed, with iu- strnctious lor cultivation and curing. This variety of tobacco, if properly cultivated und cured, will make a fine article of smoking tobacco, which cannot now be found in the market. Of late years there has been a disposition to ent tobacco before fully ripe. This gives a bright leaf, but the tobacco ia bitter, nnd an infusion of colixnya bark, deer tongue nnd other articles of a similar character only adds to its offenaivenesa, when burned. Tobacco when fully ripe is brown in color, and has some sweetness in itself, and the farmer who shall - raise smoking tobacco, up to the old standard, will be amply re paid for the ontlay of time and labor, Georgia onght to make a considerable show in tobacco culture during the proeent sea son, and take a decided etep forward in the diversity of crops. crease of pension to the soldier,'^liis widow, his heirs or some of bis descendants. If this business increases in tho future in the same proportion ss in the pest, tbis country will not b) able to afford to go to war with any foreign power. Not only the fear of a new pension list will etand in the way, but the government will not have money sufficient to buy arms, ammuni tion and rations. In the bnmeombe debate of tho past week in the House of Representatives the fact wob elicited that there were now eigh teen thousand names on the revolntionary pension roll. During the debate, Mr. Mc- Millen, of Tennessee, said: “Now, if the bill becomes a law, what a spectacle ie presented here! The three hundred old veterans, who Buffered in tho war of 1812, who did the marching and the fighting, who spilt their blood and endured fatigue, endured all the trials and troubles incident to that warfare, will go on during the rest of their lives drawing $8 a month pension, while the widow that was mar ried to his deceased comrade forty yiors ago, and who possibly lived with him but a very short time, goto $1 a month. This i injustice aginst which the amendment of the gentleman from Ohio provides. It is an injustice that cries aloud for a remedy. We will do ourselves aud our constituencies injustice if we fail to remedy it The woman has mode some sacrifice who en conraged her husband to go to the war and was thereby deprived of the comfort of his society and the help of his hand in the Btrugglo of life. But what commensurate sacrifice has sho made who did not marry the soldier till years after the war closed? And let mo repeat the question, what sacri fice has she made that has placed her on a higher plane of merit than the soldier him self stands on? Mr. Chairman, I have bnt little hope that my views, or any other man’s upon this floor, can materially affect the passage of any pension bill. We sakr that the arrear ages bill come forward here with a carefully prepared statement that it wonld drain the Treasury to the extent of about $20,000,000. It bas come nearer, o- will come nearer be fore we are done with it, to twenty times $20,000,000. It has seemed to mo that if you bring the House of Representatives any pension bill it will pass. I have as much respect for tho members as any man can have; I have respect for their integrity, for their ability, for their disinterestedness of purpose in the main, but I have- never yot seen the House brought to a vote on any question of pensions, on a yea-and-nay vote, when the bill failed to pass. If this bill carried instead of a hundred thousand pensioners a million of pensioners, when it comes to the record the result will he the same. There are hundreds of men now drawing pensions, who never heard a gun fire, or saw a days service, and yet Congress continually opening the door for more. Two classes of soldiers are not yet pen sioned, those of the Mexican and Black Hawk wars. The pensioners are virtually in control of the Government. No country esn stand snch a strain, that grows, rather than decreases, with the coming years. It is particularly hard upon the Booth. After tho war, she was gagged and robbed by thieving agents and soldier bnmmcrs of what little was left, and the government laid and collected an unconstitutional tax upon the cotton raised there. Justice would demand that the proceeds of the sales stolen property in the treasury and the cot ton tax be credited to the Sonth upon pen sion bills for the comfort of Northern sol- diora. It is still nn open question, ns whether we nro a nation of liars, but it settled that we are a nation of pensioners, know the names of all tho riversThat flow into tho White Sea, bnt they neglect to teach tho great cardinal facts about the uako up of the earth and about the peoples on it. They also neglect to teach the his tory of the United States and of this State, which every citizens of Connecticut ought have knowledge of. They neglect— shamefully neglect—to teach the children how to use their own mother tongue.— Lastly they do not sufficiently realize that they con maintain order in their schools much better by keeping their children busy, and by tactfully varying tbeir occupitiore os to keep them interested, than by the most extensive use of ap;.l tree switches." This condition of things is largely owing, is believed, to the prevalence of the dis trict system. The report says: 'By creating within onr towns from ten to twenty little parasitic governments, par tially independent in school affairs of one another and of their towns, and by dividing the dulios and responsibilities of school ad ministration between town meeting and district meeting, and between Bchool visitors and district committees, we have vitally impaired and paralyzed tho self-government of onr towns, and have rendered a proper management and control of schools im possible or at least unlikely. “ Bat there is something more than expo sure and criticism. The remedy for most of the evils of the system is clearly pointed out, and fortunately it is not a complicated or difficult' one, consisting chiefly of the abolition of the district system and the or ganization and superintendence of the schools by tho towns and cities acting as a unit. Tho following graphic example of how the district system ’8 worked is sug gestive: Some man goes to district meeting with his hired man, his brother and his brother's hired man, and perhaps one or two more relatives or friends and gets elected district committee for pnroly selfish purposes. He does so in order to obtain the teacher's wages for bis daughter, who is unfit to teach, or, for another example, to secure a teacher who will board with him and pay him a good prico therefor. Snch operations are far more common in these little neigh borhood constituencies than without obser vation we should have deemed possible.” That the treasurer of the Grant monu mental fund in St. Lonis has sent out seven thousand circulars to Missouri and received not one cent in return must strike the rebellious South as a very curious caper to be cut in a loyal State. Either Missouri knew Grant or knows the aforesaid trees nrer, seems a settled fact. Which ie it? If, by some sudden convulsion of nature everybody in the world should be killed, except one man and woman, most of the arts would be destroyed, but the male mem bers of the generations that would spring from this pair would leave the doors open at the wrong time, and the females would wear bangs. There are customs ingrafted upon humanity that can only bo eradi cated by the utter annihilation of the hu- Damagu In Georgia. In estimating tho damage to the orange and frnit erop in Florida, the general public seems to havo quite overlooked the fact that Georgia has herself sustained an immense loss in the way of mined oats. Wo have it from reliable authority that ss far south as Baker county the grouud was frozen solid to the depth of five inches Tbis beyond a doubt insures the destruc tion of tho foil oats, and necessitates imme diate preparations for replanting. Georgia's oat clop has become a necessary factor in tho welfare of the farmers, and this backset ahould not dishearten them. The loss in Florida is irretrievable; not so tbe loss here. A little industry, and the farmers will stand as beforo with the ex ception ot tho first outlay for seed and labor. This is gone forever. It is tho generally accepted opinion that severe winters are followed by good fruit years. If 1886 proves no exception to the rule, Georgia should produce nn over- whelming crop of peaches, pears and straw berries, and snch aro the circumstances, theso products will not find tho markets crowded. Her early vegetables also will come into the market about the same time the great body of Florida’s vegetables is ready. Perhaps the enhanced values of Ul these will recoup the State for the loss now evident. As a lost proposition, it may bo said that if the germ theory is well founded, this year will find tho State blessed in health. The Kml uf Were. Peace congresses and societies, diplomat ic conferences, and cartels of military dig nitaries, thongh often held, with good in tentions no doubt, have failed to pnt an end to wtn among civilized nations, or even to have the rales of warfare respected and enforced. The vandalism snd cruelties of tbe war between the States and the Fran- eo-Prnssian war, established the fact that no perceptible advance has been made towards a universal and popular peace, or the miti* gallon of tbe rigors and hardship* of war. But it may be that tbe millenium is ap proaching, and in an nnexpected shape. If anything can stop wan it will b« the growing pension rolls, for, singular to ssy,a pension roll never grows shorter. The larger portions of the time a of onr Congress are devoted to the pasaege of pension bills,eteh bringing forward some new claim to an in- rubtlc Schools. Tbe pnblie school system of the Sonth is modeled after that which has prevailed in New England. Just now there is a prodi gious effort being made to extend this sys tem in the South, under the protection snd direction of tho “paternal government.'' Before rushing blindly into tbis project it may bo well enough to look buck and see bow tbo system is doing in New England, tho people of which section make them selves chronically wretched over the wont of educational facilities in the South. It has already been shown in these col umns that tho publio school sjstem of Massachusetts ia in a very unsatisfactory condition. Much money is spent and the children are very hardly worked, but they know little or nothing that can prove of practical advantage to them. Recently a high commission has looked into the public school system of Connecti cut, the land of steadj habits, good morals and all other excellencies. Wo give the best part of the report of this commission, os compiled by the Roston Advertiser. Anybody who will take occasion to read it carefully will see that we have about the same state of affairs here. There ore, sajrs the commission, too many school houses unfit to be used. The at tendance of large classes of pnpils is irreg ular and insufficient; there is too little good teaching, and too much that is very, very poor; because the teachers are ignorant and do not know what or how to ter k, and in many cases do not know what they attempt to teach. The answers given to questions about common school studies by some per sons who are at present teaching in the schools of Connecticut reveal blank abysses of ignorance, which in n teacher are uppall- ing to contemplate. Of the 406 persons examined for teachers only seventy passed well enongh to receive a certificate of tbe lowest grade, although the examinations were by no mean* difficult for any one who is fit to teach. Tho subject of teaching is discussed at much length, snd the follow- lift picture of the condition of things it given; “Teachers insist that the children shall learn lists of things of no possible interest to them snd which they nevet will remem ber. They insist that the children shall A Ilemarkable Proceeding. Tho New York Sun says: “It appears that the inquiries by the Hen ate committees into the causes of remo vals from office have been signed by the Demo cratic Senators as well as by the Republi cans. ” There are certain so-called Democratic Senators, who owe their scats to Republi cans, and who bare very dear Republican friends in olfice, whom they are anxious to protect. Aud this is one of the main reasons why Democrats are not looked upon with favor by the present administration. As the Re publican Senators will not accept Mr. Clevo land's invitation to go up to the White House and talk over the appointments, he can do the country und the Democratic party signal service by making public the names of the Democratic Senators who have called upon him for his reasons for dis placing Republican officials. Judge Bbeweb, Uned itStatee Judge for Kansas, has recently delivered a decision which is of interest to prohibitionists. It was in the case of a brewery. “All that I hold is that property within the meaning of that amendment includes both the title and the right to nee. That when the right to use in a given way is vested in a citizen, it cannot be taken from him for the pnhlio good without compensation. Boj-ond any donbt tbe State cun prohibit defendants from continning their business of brewing, bnt before it can do so, it mnst pay the value of the property destroyed. As amusing bnt disgraceful scene oc curred in the New York General Assembly on Wednesday. As the Speaker declared the House adjourned the clerk bawled out in stentorian tones: “I have a package of passes here for the members of the House, who will come np and please get them." Then he proceeded to call out the members' names. Many of the old members, aston ished ot the proceedings, which were unique as they were startling, remained seat ed, bnt tbe new members rashed np to the desk. At one time a line ten feet deep surged in front of the clerk’s desk, like so many hungry wolves howling for provend er. The some scene may be witnessed at tho opening of every Georgia Legislature. The wife of a cavalrj’ officer famishes 8cnator Plamb, with tbis evidence ns to gambling in the army. “I noticed some time since a bill piesented in the Senate re- ganling army officers. I think it is the first attempt (at least, it is the first that I have seen) to show up the dark side of army life, and I do hope, for the sake of the wives and children, as well as for tbe nation's honor, yon will not lose eight of it I can speak from experience, for the greater part of my life, since the war, has been spent in garrisons and among army people, I have lived at a poet where the commanding offi cer turned his qnarterg into a gambling sa loon, and from retreat to reveille yon could find officers there; while this came com manding officer, who was a major, lost so much money that his wife and children pre sented more the appearance of beg gars than belonging even to respcctubility, and yet tbo code of honor waa so great among theso same gentlemen that when a poor, unfortunate fellow was 'caught cheat ing—and who will not. heat that will play for money?—he was given bis choice to re sign or have charges preferred sgainst him for conduct unbecoming on 'officer' and a 'gentleman.' He mode a compromise by committing snicldo. Drunkenness and gambling have been tbe rain of thousands who have gone into tho army with high as pirations. West Point may not be a school for vice, but it takes the cadets a very short time to become experts after joining their regiments. Who is responsible? Cannot those high in power do something to make our army better than a mob?
