The “young Editor" now has a
chance to retaliate. The Editor of |
tho New York Sun spells it thus:;
“dulnoas.”
“The evil that men do lives after

The now compulsory education law

Cabi. Schurz is mousing in the ooi
cial archives in Berlin for documents
relating to tho early history of the

Oct of the list of fourteen Gen
erals-in-chief of the army of the
United States from 1789 to 1875, three
have published military and personal
memoirs. r
The Emperor William has confer
red tho Order of Civil Merit on Hon.

Georgia and Texas new crop flour
arrived in St. Louis on the same day,
and samples of it were on exhibition
at the Merchants’ Exchange in that
city on the 30th of last month. It is J
said that the sample from Georgia
was forwarded by a Chattahoochee
county farmer.
The New York Tribune thinks that
so far as newspaper sentiment is con
cerned, Hon. M. C. Kerr, of Indiana,
will bn tho noxt Bpenker of the House
in tho National Congress, ir the
Democratic majority in the House j
can be induced to think tho same
way, then Mr. Kerr might, be the
man for tho place.
Last Saturday was the ono hun
dredth day of tho Beecher and Tilton
trial. On tho next day, Sunday, the
sainted Beecher preached a long and
interesting sermon in his church.
Several naughty girls laughed and
giggled, but ho finished his sermon
in peace. Bapsio Turner occupied a
front seat. Such is social and moral
life in Brooklyn.
There is a good size split in the
New Hampshire Legislature. Why
is it that the military is not sent to
the front? Is it because little Phil
is getting married, or that Grant is
at Long Branch? We suspect that it
is neither, but that they dare not, do
unto an Eastern State us they have
done unto a Southern State. Con
sistency nnd justice, where is thy
blush?
Setting typo by telegraph is tho
latest invention. Tho London Timex
is said to have the machine, and to
be perfecting a system by which tho
paper will be set simultaneously in
each of tho large cities where it has a
largo circulation. This will connect
the London odices with offices in Liv
erpool, Manchester, Birmingham,
etc., and a person operating the keys
of the machino in London will set the
typo thore and in all other offices at
the same time.
Money is quoted in New York “easy
at 2®2i.” What a difference in price
between hero and there! The quota
tion in Columbus is, “Money easy,
but hard to get without ‘gilt edge,’ at
i 12@15 per cent.” Some of the large
money owners of tho North aro los
ing a fortune by not sending their
money to Columbus and lending it at
a good rate of interest to honest men,
who will give them land as the “gilt
edge.” Some day, when Georgia is
built up, land around us will bo “gilt
edge” and money will be quoted here
in Columbus as “easy at 4@5 per
cent.”
CSrant vi. V auliiinftun.
No matter what has been previous
ly said of Grant as a public speaker
and letter writer, his last effusion has
stamped him as a genius. Fortu
nately somo people can seo through
it. Wo think Grant will be the next
Republican candidate for the Presi
dency, and we trust he may. He is
tho man of all men of any promi
nence In his party, that tho Demo
crats, Liberals, Conservatives and all
others, will take the greatest delight
in defeating, and the one without
doubt tho easiest defeated.
How unlike Washington is Grant.
When Washington determined not to
be a candidate for the third term, he
expressed himself in the following
unequivocal language;
“It appears to mo proper, especial
ly as it may conduce to a more dis
tinct expression of the public voice,
that I should now appriso you of the
resolution I have formed, to decline
being considered among tho number
of those out of whom a choice is to
bo mado.”
No man or party read that but at
once knew its meaning. There was
no equivocation, no balancing or
bidding, but tho outspoken senti
ments of a great man who said what
he meant, and meant exactly what lie
said.
The difference between the two let
ters is that one was written by a pa
triot and statesman, whiio tho other
was the production of an ambitious
political schemer and vain egotist.
Equitable Dlitrlbutlon of Currency.
The question of an equitable distri
bution of currency lias for a long time
vexed tho minds of our legislators,
and tho prospoct is that a fair distri
bution will never bo gained. The
South has clamored for more cur
j-oney, and it is unjust and unfair to
withhold it from us’. These things
nil fair-minded citizens North and
South admit; yet, they claim the
monoy la distributed pro rata. Upon
this point rises a question, and that
question the Congressmen from the
j South have never had settled in our
' favor.
It occurs to us that if tho Govern
ment will not give til more eurrenoy,
then we must devise means umong
ourselves to keep what we get in the
South. Every year there Is a tre
mendous amount of money sent
among us to purchaso our cotton
crop. When the monoy is paid for
the cotton, then is the time to retain
it. This can only be done by raising
our own supplies, building our own
mills, and instead of sending the
money back for bread and meat,
send into their country our own pro
ducts for sale. Tho money goes
back in an hundred various ways.
Wo buy all tho delicacies wo enjoy
from them, when they could bo made
among us. In the one item of Irish
potatoes we send nnnually thousands
of dollars North, when wo could
raiso them hero just ns well.
The equitable distribution of cur
rency will never bo settled by the
government, but it can and will bo
settled by our people. If the*gov
ernment to-day were to recall all the
currency and divide it equally be
tween the North, East, South and
West, under our present system in
less than a year all of it would find
its way baek to the money centres of
the North and East. It would be
entirely different if we were self-sus
taining—if wo raised our own sup
plies and manufactured our own
goods. If such a state of things ex
isted, we would bo continually in
creasing in wealth and prosperity,
for instead of sending out our money
we would send abroad our goods and
get currency in exchange. When
tlie South does these tilings, then
there will bo heard no more cry of
hard times and the scarcity of
money. In New York to-day money
is plentiful at three per cent, interest,
while here tho price is ns high as 15
l>er cent., and only loaned on un
doubted security.

Vot on the ProKramme.
Under the above caption the Wash
ington Chronicle, a Radical sheet,
emphatically denies the statement
going tlie rounds of the press that j
Gen. .T. E. Johnston lias been select
ed to aid Gen. Sherman as marshal
of tho day at the great Philadelphia
centennial swindle.
We have no doubt, of the truth of
tlie correction made by tho Chronicle.
We never thought when wo heard
tlie report that it was true, but on
tlie contrary believed that the whole
thing was managed by a set of dirty
Radicals, whoso minds never rose to
tho conception of having a gentle
man associated with them in the
capacity of marshal. The report
that, Hon. Mr. Lamar, of Mississippi,
has been invited to deliver an ora
tion, is equally untrue.
It is very plain how this report
originated. The owners of tho cen
tennial knew that such an announce
ment would add greatly to the suc
cess of tlie swindle, and so had it
circulated; but they hav? not the re
motest idea of carrying into effect a
programme that would give it an ap
pearance of deoency. We don't be
lieve Gen. Johnston or Mr. Lamar
would have anything to do with the
affair, if they could become acquaint
ed with it, or had an intimation that
it was a gigantic fraud.

On Wednesday evening last, Mr,
Farley Wilson went to the jail for the
purpose of removing a negro prison
er. Just as he stepped out at the
front door with tho prisoner, the dogs
in the yard mudeadash at him, when
somo one called to him to jump into
tho house and close tho door. The
negro immediately sprang back and
slammed the door, leaving Mr. Wil
son iu tho yard at the mercy of
tho dogs, and, by tho way, the most
ferocious ones, we suppose, in the
whole country. Mr. W. was thrown
down and severely bitten ; indeed, so
tierce was tho attack, that the dogs
had to bo choked off. The above are
the facts as wo ascertained them.—
