The rush of immigration to Ne
braska, Wyoming, Utah and the Pa
cific coast this spring, via Omaha, is
reported unusually large. Nearly
10,000 emigrants have passed through
since March Ist, and 1,000 more are
there now awaiting transportation.
The defeat of woman suffrage in
England by only tho close voto of
187 to 152 Isa noted event of the times.
That Disraeli should have voted with,
the minority is also a fact that shows
how tho drift of public sentiment on
this question is running.
We are glad to notice in our ex
changes that Memorial day is to be
generally observed throughout the
(State. It is indeed a solemn and im
pressive event In the lives of South
ern people, and to observo that day
is but a fitting tribute to the brave,
heroic soldiers who fell fighting for
tho Lost Cause.
N ho no Mobtauty.—Statistics show
ing the fearful mortality among tho
negro population ore causing much
talk in the North. Thero is a lot of
stuff written to explain this matter,
but the simple truth is that the boon
of freedom to tho blocks was the be
ginning of tho practical extermina
tion of the race in tho United States.
The Orinoco river is about 1,800
miles long and lias more than 400
navigable tributaries—its immense
basin extends from the Andos to the
Atlantic, from tho Caribbean Sea to
Brazil—hundreds of miles from the
ocean, it is four miles across and
slxty-llvo fathoms deep. Its trading
nnd commercial importance to New
Orleans, Is beyond present calcula
tion.
The latest news In tho London pa
pers about the Hon. Judah P. Benja
min is, that three weeks ago as
Queen’s counsel, he made a great.
• speech in behalf of the plaintiff in
the cubo of Emanuel vs. Padwiek.
Tho reporter writes: "His scathing
criticism at the conduct of the de
fendant, produced a great sensation
in court.”
Massachusetts lias adopted a strin
gent liconse law. Among its provis
ions is one that no sale or delivery of
liquor shall bo made to a person
known to be a drunkard, or to an in
toxicated person or to a minor; ond
another that in ease of damage done
by an intoxicated person, the liquor
dealer Is made liable, and he is fur
ther subject to damages should ho
I>ersißt in selling liquor to a person
habitually liable to intoxication, after
warning from a husband, wife, child,
guardian or employer.
The nogro solons of the Louisiana
Legislature, recognizing in tho .Re
publican newspaper of New Orleans
an organ nnd a support, appropriated
[xip to the proprietors during tho Inst,
session to the extent of $135,000, which
has to be jwid largely by tho people,
who feel that tho “Republican" is
making war on their best, individual
and material interests and the gen
eral prosperity of tho State. Tho sum
of $05,000 was ulso appropriated to
some little Radical country newspa
pers, to keep them running.

•One of our most talented and ap
preciated friends, becoming tired of
rural felicity, writes us an admirable
letter, from which we take the liberty
of extracting the following :
* * * “The truth is, the Pincin
nntus business is overdone in this
country. It may be that the formula
was not strictly followed. Cincln
natiis did not plough mules; so far as
I am informed, mules were not then
invented. It was, so to speak, a kind
of preliminary period—that animal,
if then in existence, being in the
crude jackass form.”
The New York Sun in its issue of
April flth demands the resignation of
Secretary Itobeson, charging him in
unmeasured terms of flagrant viola
tion of trust in his administration of
his duties as a public officer. It
charges him with diverting tho pub
lic moneys from their proper uses in
orderto subserve the interests of Jay
Cooke, McCulloch & Cos., and alleges
that even on the eve of the crash of
this great financial firm lie, with
knowledge of its rottenness, doubled
the amount of money it already owed
the government, taking security
Which he knew was worthless, as lie
had no shadow of right to lend any
money to this firm. The Sun calls'
for an investigation by tho next Con
gress, asserting thut. impeachment
will certainly follow.
Gen. John W. Wofford endorses the
Gordon programme, but thinks the
Senator aid not go far enough. Tho
gallant Wofford says "as fast as the
Radical [wirty acted the rascal, the
Democrats would act the fool. ” Yes,
the Democrats “acted the fool” in
1872, ond Wofford wants them to act
the unlimited fool in 1876.
[Augusta Const.
The Constitutionalist is mistaken in
the man. Gen. W. T. Wofford we do
not think coincides always with Col.
Jno. W. Wofford.
--Four thousand two hundred bales j
of cotton have been shipped from j

TUI'. TOMB OF I.EK.
At tho close of the decade which
witnessed the surrender of the Con
federacy at Appomattox Court House,
tho State of Virginia honors itself by
honoring tho memory of Lee. The
statue, guarded by young students of
Virginia, Is homo to the .Sarcophagus
containing the remains of tho grand
old hero. No monument in Trafalgar
Square; no tomb in the Hotel (let
Involutes or Westminster Abbey, is
dearer or more touching to tho hearts
of tho people, than that of the heroic,
Christ-like soldier, Lee. Well might
Sir Garnet Wolsey give to him tho
praise of being tho grandest figure in
our history. Washington was not
his superior; Trajan was not his
equal. Impregnable in conflict, ho
was sublime at tho surrender. His
lofty patriotism forgot self in tho
solicitude lie felt concerning his
valiant followers who were with him at
our Thermopylae, Appomattox, C. H.
Well might Sumner propose to oblit
erate from the conquered banners
the names of the battles, for those
names were records ”of Confederate
vulor rather than Federal victory.
We fought forces fourteen times
greater than our own, and numbers
conqurcd us. To the cold heart of
Grant it was merely a question of
time and mathematics. Lee in ids
grave is blessed; Grant in the Presi
dential chair is loathed. Could he
nave his way, it Is but reasonable to
suppose thut he would send Sheridan
to the “mother of States,” that he
might repeat his infamous order con
cerning monuments to tho people of
Louisiana. What, a sacrilege would
be the presence of Sheridan at the
tomb of Loo! And yet let us emulate
his virtues. It is true that a vengeful
satrap, absorbed in his own egotism,
has offered the olive branch, but gives
the deadly upas; lias arrayed the
servant against the master; desola
ted the fairest portionsof a eontinent
that lie might revel in riches and riot
in power, and placidly puff his cigar
careless of the ruin of tho Republic.
Nero was not loss mindful of the
burning of Borne, than is our Ctesar
of the desolate condition of the
country that gave birth to Washing
ton, Lee and Calhouu. But let us
emulate Gen. Lee, and, by a moder
ate but decisive course, and yielding
not a jot of our rights, bring to our
side tlie great mass of the Northern
people. No man can say that Gen.
Gordon has ever lucked in speaking
at the right timo and in the right
tones, in behalf of our suffering coun
try, and his course follows the mag
nanimous course marked out by Leo.
In peace, as in war, Lee was our best
guide. It is with gratification that
we add hero the remarks of the Jour
nal of Commerce on tiiis subject:
"We of the North see and know
that the South is to-day loyal and
peaceful, and as obedient to the law
as any purt of the country. On the
other hand, the South is well aware
that the administration and its Radi
cal allies, in their unjust policy to
wards her, do not represent the great
mass of tho men of both parties at
the North. The two sections will not
let themselves bo rubbed by tho ears
like a pair of bull dogs and set to
quarrelling again to gratify the hate
or servo the ambition of a crew of
soulless politicians."
TIE (BUNK OF THK PATKVT LAWS.
AVo give elsewhere a letter to the
New York World relative to the above
subject. It is one replete with inter
est to every citizen, nnd especially to
farmers. All who have had occasion
to buy high-priced machines must
have wondered why the cost should
be so great. To use one of General
Toombs’eplgrumatie expressions, "it
fatigues the indignation” to discuss
tho corrupt system in all its devious
details.
Suffice it to say, that a sewing ma
chine or a mowing machine, man.
ufactured in this country, can be
bought in the city of London for loss
money than it costs at the place of
manufacture; and this, too, after the
cost of transportation and incidental
commissions have been paid. This
is proof sufficient to indicate tho
enormous profits over cost of manu
facture reaped by these monopolists,
who feed those hungry vultures, the
"patent lawyers.” The system is in
keeping with the corrupt Government
which has ruled the country since
1861. It is a baneful policy, which,
> “by ways that are dark, and tricks
> that are vain,” enriches tho few at
the expense of tho many. It is a pu
i sillanimous policy, that fosters these
manipulators of the inventions of
I others, and excludes from citizenship
, sueli a man ns Commodore Maury,
1 while refusing to pay anything for
his wonderful services to the country.
Millions were lavished upon Prof.
Morse for the invention of telegraphy,
and he deserved it all. But a greater
than he Matthew Fontaine Maury
, rendered ocean telegraphy possible
by the discovery of the Physical Ge
ography of the Sea. Had he been
encouraged, as Morse was, he would
have given to agriculturists the same
benefits which he gave to mariners.
lint he died disfranchised. He it was
who originated the meteorological
system, by which the weather may
be forecasted; and the Government,
by dishonoring him, has perhaps
thrown tho world a century behind
in the progress of this science. France
and Russia offered him an asylum for
j life and honorable official position,
j England presented him with a large
■ sum, in gold, as a feeble testimonial
i of what England owed him for the
material benefits, reaped by all na
tions, by his discoveries in nautical
science. The pigmies who lead a par
tisan Congress and give their time to
schemes of plunder, allowed him to
die in poverty because he was a
Southerner, but the civilized world
honors his name as pre-eminently
the greatest of modern inventors.
Tho Southern States are intrinsi
cally wealthy. Their natural resour
ces are practically exhaustless. Their
I ultimate ability' to provide for the
I education of the children of all clas
ses is unquestionable. Their people
j should therefore devise means at
| once for the establishment and sup-
—
port of schools, especially of the prl- 1
mary grade, for all. If they cannot!
be kept open tho year round at pres
ent, they can bo organized and the
necessary work commenced; and as
the needed funds are augmented, in
structions can be continued for great
er portions of each year, and other |
schools of a higher grade established.
Washington Chronicle.
When the Chronicle examines Into:
the relative population of the whites
and blacks in the Bouth, and tho rel
ative amounts paid into the State
treasuries by the two races in the
form of taxes, it will be better able to
advise us concerning the policy of
public education. Where the two
races exist together tho laws bearing
on this subject cannot justly be
framed upon those existing in States
which are peopled by whites almost
exclusively.
—- * ♦ *
Hon. Alexander H. Stephens dc- 1
nies, distinctly and emphatically, |
that he “ever upheld, supported, or
defended any act of usurpation by
Gen. Grant, or anybody else, either
In low or high official position,” and j
says his life lias been devoted to the.]
“maintenance of right against wrong i
the rights of individuals as well
as the rights of States against all j
abuses of power which tend to op-1
pression and tyranny.”
Some good people will differ with!
Mr. Stephens in tlie opinion ho ex
presses of himself.
The Washington Chronicle coin-:
cides with tho Augusta Constitution
alist in repremanding Gen. Gordon
for saying "Let us convince them
that, we accept as final the abolition
of slavery and the franchise of the
negro.”
No better proof of the soundness
of Gen. Gordon’s views can be urged
than the opposition of the Chronicle.
Unlike Mr. Stephens, Gen. Gordon
tells us what to do, and what ho ad
vises is not inconsistent with
“straight” Democracy. We add a
part of the General’s statement in
proof of this:
A BTBAIOHT DEMOCRAT CAN HE ELECTED.
Reporter—Do you think that a
straight Democrat can be elected on
tiiis platform?
General Gordon—l certainly do. J
believe that any man who has the
confidence of the people, standing
upon this platform and pledged to its
support, would carry at least two
thirds of the loyal voters of the
country. I believe that two-thirds of
the people of America are opposed
openly and squarely to the adminis
tration. There is hardly a point in
tiiis platform to which the Radical
party is not opposed.

Financial Crisis In Germany.
Although the Staats-ZeUnng ac
knowledges that it is no part of the
duties of the German Government to j
give financial assistance to the num- ]
berle.ss commercial enterprises which
are now threatened with ruin, it says |
that the spirit of reckless specula- j
tion engendered hy their unparalleled
success, and which is the cause of
the present panic, was mainly fos
tered among the German people by
the immense government disburse
ments made to keep up their military
prestige.
The inflation of tho currency and
tho consequent elevation of the cost
of living throughout the empire have
produced a state of things somewhat
similar to what has been created here
by the enormous increase'of the cir
culating medium. Sudden fluctua
tions in prices have given birth to
the wildest schemes far realizing in a
few months colossal fortunes, and
now that the reaction tins set in,
thousands of imaginary millionaires
will havo to go to the wall. Says the
Demokrat of April Bth : “The cable
announces a crisis in Berlin. This
might have been expected long ago,
and it will not only be felt on the
Bourse, but throughout the entire
commercial world.”

The rxieplralins nml Tlielr Work.
We do not speak of the results of
tho abolition of slavery upon the
dark race. However excellent they
have boon, our present business is
with the apostles of abolition of a
wiiite color, a Northern residence
alula homo-loving and peaceful in
clination in tho days oi war. The
eliiefest surviving person of that class
must be admitted to havo been Rev.
Henry Ward Beecher. He is now on
trial, before a sympathetic jury, in
the sympathetic city of his apostle
ship, Brooklyn, on a charge of seduc
tion. His accuser is his late lieuten
ant in the anti-slavery crusade, Mr.
Theodore Tilton, of whom we will
say nothing, for his own testimony j
has revealed him sufficiently to the
world. Beecher s assistant pastor,
Halliday; Mr. Frank Carpenter,
President Lincoln’s household pet;
Mr. Brown, the Pecksniff of "The In
dependent” newspaper; Air. Oliver
Johnson, tho original Abolitionist
and friend of John Brown ; Mr. Wen
dell Phillips, Mr. Redpath, Mr. Jack
son S. Shultz even an innocent
daughter of tho honest Abolitionist,
Lovojoy all these are mixed up in
the strange and infamous tragedy ot
lust, perjury and hypocrisy. Could
any man have invoked a heavier
curse upon the Abolition gang of 1
1860 '6l than has fallen upon them? j
Nmo York News.
The abolition conspirators who
brought on the war will go down to
history covered with shame. Even
the statesmen who pandered to the
treason of Garrison, Lovejoy A Cos.,
have already filled the graves of dis
appointed ambition. Sumner died'
without friends, and the only wreath
laid upon his grave came from a Mis
sissippian; Chase expired with the
anathemas of his party; Seward was
spurned by his comrades after his
throat had been out in their behalf;
Greeley passed away heart-broken,
and his death pillow was smoothed
by the hands of those whom he had
| most injured; John Brown died upon
the gallows; Jim Lane blew his
I brains out; Dayton was found dead
!in the bed of an adventuress; Fre
j mont, should he visit France, would
to-day be condemned to the galleys,
on account of the Memphis & El Paso 1
Railroad frauds. Preston King fas
tened a weight about his neck and
drowned himself from a ferryboat;
Stanton out his throat with a razor;
Pomeroy was caught offering a bribe;
Colfax smiled himself away into a
disgraceful obscurity, and Ben Wade
has been rejected by his people.

DESCRIPTION OK HIS ROBES ASIA STATE
CARRIAGE.
The urrival of the pupal messen
gers in New York with tiie cardinal’s
cap for Archbishop McCloskey is an
nounced by telegraph. The New York
Jlerald ot Sunday gives the following
description of the new cardinal’s cos
tume and state carriage:
The election and confirmation of
Archbishop McCloskey as a cardinal
necessitated action In the way of pre
paring the costnmo designated for
tho position, and, as no previous oc
casion hiol arisen for such a costume
on this side ot the Atlantic, consider
able doubt was entertained whether
tho requisite materials oould bo ob
tained without a special order being ,
dispatched to Europe. The dress of
u cardinal is peculiar, both in style
and texture, and the difficulty that j
was expected greatly perplexed those
who had the matter in charge. Ac-:
cording to the official programme the
robes of it cardinal arc composed of
three separate and distinct pieces
tho cassock, the inantclletfa or full
cape, and t lie mezzetta or short cape
all. when worn, assuming the shape
and having the appearance of n sin
gle garment. These three articles are
made of a peculiar and very rich amt
costly fabric, technically denomina
toil Siellienne silk, which is usually
manufactured fifty inches in width, j
in order to avoid "unsightly seams in j
the garments. The color of this Sicil
ienne silk is a rich shade of scarlet,
and bears the name of “cardinal
color.”
The rep when made up is lined
throughout with rich gros grain silk
of the same shade. Fortunately it
was discovered that a Broadway firm
had in store tho needed materials, j
When the goods came to be examined ,
it was found that there was justsuili-,
cient to make Cardinal MeClosKey’s j
robes, neither more nor less, and so
the minds of aiiooneerned were eased
on tho question, and the necessary
orders were at once given. The firm
took especial pains in manufacturing
the robes, and they were delivered to
his eminence on Saturday. The
robc-s are very ricli in appearance, for
the silk is interwoven with the finest'
quality of lamb’s wool, which gives
it a lustre unequalled among such
fabrics. The long, flowing skirt, sur
mounted by tlic capes, make up a
costume both rich and elaborate, so
that when Cardinal McCloskey re
ceives the heretta and assumes the 1
robes of liis high office he will appear
in the precise dress as worn in Rome
on great and important occasions.
THE CARDINAL’S STATE CARRIAGE.
The cardinal consulted his own
good taste and sought a conveyance
which would carry a sense of dignity
to the minds of its observers. He
found one lifted to his needs and tie
had it purchased for set,no i. it is
thoroughly suited to bear the digni
ties of a cardinal. It is an almost
massive, round-bodied town coach.
Within it is lined with dark grden
satin, and fitted witli every appliance 1
needful to the people who can ride in
their coaches. The body is painted
lustrously black, and its running gear
is of dark green, like the upper side
of mi oak leaf. These colors are re
lieved by the pallor of tile silver
mountings of the carriage. The only
exact mark by which people will
learn to pick out Cardinal MeClos
koy’s coach from a host of fine
vehicles drawn by proud horses, is
the eoat-of-arms on its doors. This j
is a combination, it is said, of the |
armorial insignia of the cardinal’s
family and some of the emblems of
his priestly office. The field of the
escutcheon is green. A crimson
chevron running from side to side of
the shield up toward the centre
makes a lozenge at Us base, in which
there is a golden lilly liower. On
the field of the chevron arc three sil
very Maltese crosses. At each upper
extremity of the shield is a golden
star. Surmounting the escutcheon is
a double orosslet, as it is called that
is, a cross having one large and one
small traverse, the latter being above
the former. The escutcheon is thus
described in heraldic terms: Field
vert, a chevron gules, with three Mal
tese crosses argent; two etulies d'or in
chief, and a jhntr-de-lys d'or. Crest, a
double erosslet.
