Grant ax Dictator. Everybody who has an ambition to be on the side of the ixirty In power, cun now kucss the rlKht side, If they will join Grant as Dictator. The force bill means nothing more nor less than Grant shall rule. If lie is not legally elected for the third terra, all he will have to do, is to dc clare himself Dictator of America, and the result will either be a revo lution, or a slave-like submission. Grunt thinks his head will fit a crown, and he has crowds of admirers who are of the same way of thinking, es pecially If they can be benefited by him. We would not be surprised if the coronution did not take place in civ ilized Philadelphia, on the occasion of thd grandest of modern humbugs — the centennial celebration next year. It will be a fitting ocusion, and we suggest that time, if Grant has not determined on a more speedy as cension. Our politicians who are looking for ward to the Gubernatorial chair, and to bo the successor of Norwood, had better moke friends with the admin istration, or they will be like Pinch, not allowed to take their seats. Grant wants to die in harness, and intends to have his wishes gratified, though he would not like to follow in the foot-prints of his illustrious predecessor, Abe Lineoln, the joker. TUr l/CKlvlalurr lia- Adjonrnr-d. The press of the State are congrat ulating the people on the adjourn ment of the Legislature. They re mained in solemn conclave for nearly lifty days, and yot they have accom plished nothing for the people in the way of wholesome legislation. They have literally “done those things which they ought not to have done, and left undone those things which thoy should have done.” The people — the honest yeomanry of the coun try—clamored for the re-enuctlon of tho Lien law, so that they might make a crop, but their voieo was un heeded, and to-day many farmers are in most straigntened circumstances with their farms curtailed and their families destitute. Tho failure to re enact this law will provo beneficial in a few years, but before the benefits oomc many will bo the privations and absence of necessities. The people demanded they should not ro-enaet the Usury law, yet in the face of their determination they did pass a Usury law. Tho people demanded a convention that they might rid themselves of certain laws which Bullock and his thieves Imported from the North, had settled upon the people, hut the Legislature thought it ill-advised on account of tho expense to the State; yet they sat there eating goober-peas, at seven dollars |>er day, passing laws against drinking whiskey within two miles of every cross-road in tho State, and granting license to Mr. Hnoodles to build a toll gate, or to relievo somebody of some Shite debts. They passed no general law of im portance, but towards tin) close of their arduous (?) duties sprung a question ou tho Treasurer, who whip lied out the concern and sent them homo. There was decided talent in the Legislature, as can be attested by our Representatives and several from adjoining counties, hut their wisdom was unavailing in the face of numeri cal strength from elsewhere. ImiMirlniil to Columbus. Every city of any importance is stretching out its arms to grasp all tho trade within its reach, and is sending agents into the territory of other cities to take away their trade; while it seems our merchants, as a rule, art> doing little to extend their trade, or even to protect that which they already have. From the papers published in tho lower counties wo learn that much of the trade former ly coming to Columbus Is now seek ing other places, and t lmt by a proper effort on the part of Columbus, this trade could be .turned to us. Thero is a new avenue of trade opening up to this section, which we can control, if our merchants and those directly interested will make nil effort. Columbus, Miss., and l>e mopolis, Ala., are thriving places, and on account of the want of rail road facilities are unable to supply themselves except at enormous ex lensc In the way of freights. Tho Central Railroad lino has gone to their rescue, and has sent an agent out to oontract with the merchants at a much lower rate of freights than they have received. Columbus, If she can get the patronage of these and adjacent places, can get through rates >f freight over this line, and thus extend her trade into a rich country. A Terrible (ataniroplir. From the New York Herald, wo learn the particulars of the terrible cutastrophe, which befell the con gregation of St.. Andrew’s Catholic Church In New York. While the congregation wore proceeding with the lenten services at night, a huge wall over-topping the church, fell with a crush, killing twenty-five per sons, and wounding over one hun dred poople. The Priest was In the midst of his discourse on the subject of sudden death, and had scarcely finished the sentence, calling upon his hearers to be always prepared for eudden death, when the summons came. The scene was described as fearful In the extreme, and the suf fering of tho victims, who lay coy ered in the ruins, beggared descrip tion. Material at our Hoorn for A not her Man manuring Knlerprlne. The idea has suggested Itself to us by reading an article in the Scientific American that some of our enterpris ing citizens might make it to their advantage, besides building up an en terprise in Columbus, by bestowing a little attention to the weed grown here called “sumac.” The weed grows in rank profusion all through this section, and Is commonly called “shoe-make.” It Is very useful in tanning, and is generally used as the base of many colors In calico and de laine printing. The consumption of this article in America amounts to twenty thousand tons, and at least two-thirds of it is Imported from .Sici ly, not because just as good sumac cannot be grown in this country, but because our people do not know its value, or in what way to prepare it for market. The sumac grown in Georgia is said to be better than that raised in Sicily, and a good and ready sale can be found for it at all times. It would pay an enterprising man to start a lanyard here. There is plenty of red oak bark in our adjoin ing forests, and tho sumac Is found in every old field near Columbus. It can be procured In large quantities, and with a little effort on the part of our farmers plenty of it can be socured. It grows liko asparagus, and is not easily killed, but can be out like mil let. The American says: “The only trouble Is in curing it pro|>er- Jv. This must he done with uii tho care that Is given to tobacco or hops. Expo sure, after cutting, to a heavy dew, injures it, and a rain storm detracts materially from its value. It is out when in full leaf, and when properly dried is ground, leaves and stalks together. An acre in full hear ing will produce not less than three tons, and when lit for market it is worth from to SIOO per ton. The ‘manufacturers, ’ as the curers are tailed, pay about one cent a pound for It in a green stato. A sumac mill costs about $:),000." Exploits of the l.'nltrd slates Army. Since tho close of Held operations in the war of coorcion tho United States troops have been employed in hanging tho Southern people and in hunting Indians. Their services to the carpet-baggers In aiding them to carry elections at tho South aro too well known to be recapitulated. Their exploits on tho Indian frontier have been duly reported to the Department at Washington, from which it ap pears that the number of Indiuns captured in 1873 was two hundred and twenty-seven; Indians killed by the United States troops, four hundred and five; citizens killed by Indians, forty-eight, and, during six months of 1874, the number of Indians cap tured by United States troops was seventy-three; Indians killed by Uni ted States troops, one hundred and fifty-eight; citizens killed by Indians, thirty-six ; soldiers killed by Indians, three. The list of captured Indians embraces one hundred and fifty-nine Modoes men, women and children —and one hundred to one hundred and fifty men, women and children of the Tonto Apaches, being a part of over nine hundred who left their res ervation and were killed by U. S. troops sent out by the post comman der to bring them back to the reser vation, which attempt they resisted or evaded; also tho killing of 193 men, women and children, Apaches of Camp Verde (the details are not given,) and also the killing' of tifty threo men, women and children of the Apaches. Eskimingln, an Apache chief, San Carlos agency, was ar rested and put in the guardhouse by order of tho officer in command at that post. He escaped and (led to the mountains, and his example was followed by a largo portion of the reservation Indians. United States troops and Indian scouts, under the orders of the officer in command, pursued and attempted to bring them back, and the Indians resisted, with the above result. We have not the data at hand, but it would be interesting reading to the tax payers of the nation if un exact statement could be furnished of the millions of dollars which the accom plishment of all this brilliant mili tary service lias cost the Treasury. O'rir. Nines. • The New lleveiiue Rill. The bill, as it passed the House, pleases New England, of course. All revehue hills seem to be made for her benefit. Without Federal legislation how would she live ? And if she ceased to live, how could this planet continue to exist ? There is no ne cessity for any increase of taxation. The taxes hitherto collected have been often wasted for political pur poses. If the government would economize, as the people do, there need be no increase of revenue. Cabpet-Baooeb. Tho Nashville Union and American defines a carpet bagger as a man who carries all the prejudices of his nativity into the State of ills adoption, and never idon- j titles his sympathies or interests with tho people of tlio latter; but, while enjoying its honors, works against its every interest. A true bill and a true picture. ——■ —+ • We are inclined to think now that Grant has been greatly underrated. They say it. took him four days only, Sunday included, to write his Arkan sas message. The accomplishment of such an amount of rascality in four days ought to stamp him as ti man of genius, whether it does or not. Uourier-Jonnuil. * . ' AI.AUAMA NKWK. Five hundred slieep were killed by dogs in St. Clair. —The sum of $52.20 was raised at the Anniversary meeting of the Bible Society in Eufaula, Sunday night. The Mobile Reijister puts it strong an correctly when it says that five re speotablo citizens of Lee county have been carried to Montgomery by the villains who call themselves' Deputy U. S. Marshals. Whenever a man becomes so depraved in the South as to he a social pariah, lie is appointed a Deputy Marshal, and commences dragging good citizens all over the State, to answer frivolous charges made by lying negro vagabonds. —The Thomasville Times gives an account of a killing near that place. G. W. Forrester killed S. W. Wilcox, Woman in the ease. H) nopal* of llir Force 8.11. The following is a full synopsis of the bill as presented.
