ment Promises. Of these there are
floating about the country at present

We hazard the assertion that not a

One of the most striking evils of a
Republican government Is the distri
bution of patronage by Senators aud
others for Federal offlec. Tho Inde
pendent party seeks to remedy this
evil. Ac exchange, in referring to
this system, says: “First of all, he
must reward potttienl service. He
cannot search out the right place and
put him In office without regard to
his service to his party. Such a course
would be the death knell of any Sen
ator that holds office to-day. The
present system requires hint to con
tend for patronage and to use it for
the benefit of his party. The firm
ness of his hold on his position as u
leader, depends in a great measure
upon the skill he exhibits in the dis
tribution of Federal patronage.”
THK (I HEEta ql KMTIWV
While thoro is a split in tho ranks
of tho Democracy-the Democrats in
the West and tho South being for a
further inflation of the currency,
while those of New York, Pennsylva
nia, and most of the other States of
the Union are opposed to it—still the
future is not discouraging for tho De
mocracy. Wo base this opinion upon
tho fuct that, aside from the question
of “reconstruction” in tho South,
which is in itself enough to kill the
Radical party, tho Republicans are
equally divided upon this all-impor
tant question. Tho most prominent
and influential leaders of tho Repub
lican party—Butler, Morton, of Indi
ana.and Logan, of Illinois—aroavow
cd Inflationists. Tho Republican par
ty is even moro radically divided on
the currency question than the Dem
ocratic party. Tho traditions of the
Democratic party commit it to Free
Trade; those of the Republican par
ty to Protection. “Protection” means
the taking of money from the pockets
of producers,and giving it to huge rail
road corporations and steamship com
panies, which are never repaid, and
to bolster up tho fisheries of New
England, and tho manufactories of
the country in an altogether undue
proportion.
The Protective Tariff levies a heavy
import duty on iron, cotton goods,
and other manufactured articles,
which, “barring out foreign articles,
enhances tho price of domestic manu
factures, for the boncflt of tho com
panies which manufacture them and
monopolize tho home market.” Thus
wo have to pay SBS for a sewing ina
ohino that does not cost the maker
$25, and tho great body of the pro
ducers are mado to pay extortionate
prices for nearly all tho luxuries of
life, that tho few rich manufacturing
companies may bo benefltted. True
Democracy is opposed to monopolies.
The Eastern State Journal, (White
Plains, New Yorkj thus elaborates
Its opposition to the Protective sys
tem in the following words:
This Protective system of taxation,
with the equally vicious system of in
ternal revenue taxation, creates a
necessity for a horde of office-holders
who produce nothing, but who, like
a standing army, cat out the sub
stance of tho people, and, by promot
ing an inordinate greed for office, de
moralizes, in a great measure, the
public sentiment and the habits of
the community.
It is our opinion, therefore, that
those greater questions of weight di
viding the two parties, will ultimate
ly remand tho currency question to
tlio Congressional districts to be set
tled by tho peoplo irrespective of
sectional differences. Tho material
Interests of tho South and West are
closely connected, as this issue clear
ly proves. Tho differences in the
Democratic party on tiiis subject are
exaggerated by the Republican press,
because they know that the greater
question of Constitutional Reform
and a return to the landmarks of the
Constitution will bo the strongest
rallying cry of tho Democracy. Both
parties are hopelessly divided on tho
currency question.
The Memphis Avalanche says: “The
currency is ample. In proportion a
we produce articles needed by our
Northern neighbors or for foreign ex
port, currency will (low into the
South. Sections that produce only
what they consume cannot expect an
influx of capital. The problem is
simple: Produce something to sell,
and tlio money will seek it.” In pro
portion to population the South is not
backward in producing “something
to sell.” Southern exports sustain
the General Government, and yet a
high tariff prevents our reaping our
just reward. If wo had free trade,
sineo wo want but few foreign com
modities, while our commodities arc
in good request in foreign countries,
we would obtain our Imports at ex
tremely small cost, compared to what
wo now have to pay. Free trade will
solve tlio vexed currency question in
our favor.
South Carolina Is now known as
tho Prostrate State, So much for the
support given by tlio colored people
to strangers, who care nothing about
them, except to use them as tools to
make places for themselves as politi
cal officers. Tho result is the impov
erishment of the tax-payers, the de
basement of tho negro, and the deg
radation of the State.
The names of tho gentlemen from
whom the respective parties will be
pretty sure to select their candidates
for President next year are not many.

The following shows how Indian

Tho order was giveu to drive the
wagon out. Tlio command was obey
ed without further delay, and Iteem
er went swingiug into eternity at the
rope’s end, his feet only six inches
from the ground. He was dead iu
twenty minutes by tlio watch. In or
der to polish off tho deed with a little
refined sentiment, tho chief of the
gang then pinned the following ,
MOB VERDICT
to the victim’s shirt, written on tlio
back of an envelope in pencil, and in
a very irregular and disguised hand.
These are the words : “It is tho ver
dict of one hundred and sixty men of
Hancock, Rush and Shelby counties
that liis life is inadequate to meet the
demands of justice. ’ Tho ceremo
nies closed then formally with the
following brief oration, spoken by
the stalwart chief of the party to his
midnight crew: “Whoever discloses
what has happened here this night
meets the same fate in the same
place, whether he be white or black.
This is done to defend and avenge
the honor of our wives, and we be
lieve God will justify us in the deed.”
At the word of command tlio ranks
then dispersed in small squads and
by various directions, leaving the ne
gro alone with his dreadful expiation.
Early on tho following morning the
body was cut down and removed to
tlio undertaker’s in Greenfield.

Troy, Ala., June 30tb, 1875.
Editor* Time*: Since tho refresh
ing showers which have visited this
section for the past ten days the faces
of our farmers have grown consider
ably brighter, and tho prosiiect for
the best crop since the war is more
flattering than ever. Tho sufferers
by the recent hail storm have betaken
themselves to work with commend
able energy, and are sowing down
their lands in peas and such other
crops as aro of a quick growtli and
will oorao to maturity by fall. A good
crop of peas and othor forage crops
will go far to make up their losses.
Our merchants, with their accus
tomed liberality and generosity, con
tributed u considerable amount to re
lieve tho immediate wants of the
sufferers, so that tho losses will not
fall as heavily as they would other
wise.
Eli C. Lee, who murdered Geo. W.
Carroll, ton miles cast of this city on
tlie 16th inst., was brought here on
yesterday from Eufaula, near which
place he was arrested several days
since. Ho was committed to jail by
Justice Starke to await a preliminary
examinatiod, which will take place
on to morrow. This is said to be, by
those who are familiar with ail the
circumstances, one of the most uu
provoked murders ever committed in
our county, and it is hardly possible
that Lee will escape pulling hemp,
though it is hard to foretell what the
verdict of a jury will bo. Leo could
easily have made good his escape, but
very foolishly stopissd and hired him
self out near Eufaula, and his em
ployee seeing the advertisement, and
description, offering szuo reward for
him, had him arrested and lodged in
tlio Eufaula guardhouse.
Business is exceedingly dull at
present, but our meruhunts look for
ward to one of tho best seasons for
several years. With the unprece
dented crop proHjiccts their hopes aro
rising high, and should no blight of
any kind befall the crops it is safe to
predict that Troy will do a (Hitter
business during the coming winter
than for a long time past,.
Our city is improving some, with a
talk of other improvements to be
commenced at an early day. Should
the talked of buildings bo erected
they will add greatly to the appear
ance of the place, and no doubt prove
a success, financially, to the owners.
The proposed Mobile and Cirurd
stockholders’ meeting, and conse
quent free ride to Columbus, is quite
the topic at present. Everybody in
this part of tho “moral vineyard,”
who can possibly do so, is going;
among them soveral of our gallant
young men, will visit your city, what
for, we are unable to suy. Perhaps
the bright eyes of some of Columbus’
fair ones have the magnetic attrac
tion which is drawing thorn. At. any
rate, wo would adviso the beaux of
your city to keep an eye on them for
there is no telling what their aspira
tions may bo in the matrimonial line.

The New York World says:
“TlieSouthern planters were stead
ily drifting nearer to final ruin with
every year of tho old reckless system
of easy lending and borrowing. They
are this year taking their first steps
towards renewed prosperity, not on
borrowed money, but on tlie solid
ground of economy and a well regu
lated industry.”
That’s a mistake. They aro run
ning on borrowed capital still; but it
is true that they are more economical
than ever.
The New York Sun says:
“Tho only newspaper in Mississippi
that Is edited by colored men pub
lishes an article in which it asserts
that tlie time lias come for the color
ed i>eople to take anew departure,
out loose from the political adventu
rers, who, while professing all sorts
of friendship for tho negro voters,
only use them to accomplish their
sinister designs, and join in with men
of character and respectability in the
community, who arc bound to the
soil of the State by ties stronger than
offices and political emolument.. The
colored voters In the South are learn
ing that their self-constituted leaders
aro ns selfish ns they are unprinci
pled, and that they cannot impover
ish tho whites by their schemes
of public robbery without inflicting
equal injury on tlie blacks, whose in
terests aro inseparably connected
with those of their white neighbors.
It will not be long before the influ
ence of the carpet-baggers over tlie
blacks In nil the Southern States will
be gone, and then tho colored voters
will naturally seek the advice of the
best, class of white citizens in regard
to the choice of public officers, as
they now look to the same class for
counsel and assistance iu the ordina
ry affairs of life.”
AU of which is undoubtedly true.
The Palace Hotel, now nearing
completion, iu San Francisco, is the

it covers 06,250 square feet of ground,
and is seven stories high; 24,661,000

tons of east and wrought iron, and
4.501,524 feet of lumber and timber.
It contains 1,060 windows, 377 of

none of less size than 16x16 feet, and
388 bath rooms. It. contains over
three miles of halls; there are five

not a dark or windowless room in the

SOME SENSIBLE REMARKS ON THE COM
PARISON.
An ardent opponent of tho scheme,
now ratified by Congress, for im
proving the mouth of the Mississippi
by jetties, writes a long letter to the
Memphis Avalanche on that theme.
His argument is, in brief, that the
jetty plan's having worked well at the
mouth of tho great Danube docs not
prove that it will work well on the
greater Mississippi, because tho two
rivers differ greatly. The main points
of difference, according to him, are,
tho greater area of tho Mississippi;
its greater volume of water: the
greater amount of sediment it holds
in solution; its lack of the firm banks
that served to support tho Danube
jetties; and tho difference in the
winds and tho shore currents of the
two hurbors. Ail this, if true, is
somewhat important. Itstiows that
tlie success of tliescheme on the Dan
ube is not tlie übsolute success on the
Mississippi that it has been asserted
to be. liut the writer falls into a
greater error than any of those ho,
tries to expose when he coolly as
sumes that tlio argument from the
analogy of the Danube is the only
one upon which the Mississippi jetty
theme rests. So far from being the
only one, it is not even the
most important. The idea has
been successfully tried in several
Eurofiean rivers. The history of
these trils afurnishes n body of cumu
lative proof of great weight. But
the strongest reason Is given by the
Mississippi itself. That river once
bad its delta near Camden. It has
pushed Its channel six hundred miles
to the south by constructing its own
jetties. In other words, Captain
Eads merely proposes to do quickly
and by human labor what the river
does slowly anil by purely natural
forces. The simple law that regu
lates tho sedimentary deposits of a
great river is, the greater t he velocity
tlie greater the sediment carried in :
solution per cubic foot of water.
Thus a current of from four to five
miles an hour iu the Mississippi will
carry along about a cubic inch of sed
iment to a cubic foot of water. As
the breadth of the channel increases,
the current slackens, und a proiKir
tlonal part of the sediment drops to
the bottom and helps form a bar or
shallow. Hence tne delta. Now,
the delta used to be in the vicinity of
Cairo, Illinois. As the mud brought
down by tin- river was deposited at
the side anil shaped into banks, the
channel was contracted, the velocity
of the current increased, and the
sand-bar between tho newly-formed
banks was swept away. What the
Mississippi lias done for itself from
Cairo to New Orleans und lie low,
Captain Eads now proposes to do for
it the rest of the way. He Is carrying
out Nature’s idea and using Nature’s
processes, and may safely bo relied
upon to win. Chuatgo Tribune.
