THE DAILY TIMES. Columbia. #.. MU DAY • .JULY a. ISKB. LARGEST DAILY OIEOULATIOH In Ity nl Wuhiirb.. Mrs. BewJusr Is authority for the statement, ‘‘To be mad all through Isa good tonic." Ttfsutfong elettwiit in the present inflationist movement is opposition to the present National Hank mo nopoly. ■ ♦ Fred Douglass says that the negro raoe does not wish their educational institutions to be brought under de nominational religious control. Tins number of National Banks, when the last call was made on them for a statement of their condition, which was on the Ist of May last, was a,045. A eoNvmmoN of bank oiUoera and bankers will bo held at Baratoga Hprlngs, N. Y.,on the 20th July. The "Bullionlsts" of the North are wide awake. Prkhidnt MacMahos has increas ed his personal popularity in South ern Franco by his prompt visit to the scene of the terrible floods, and his efforts to relievo the sufferers. Two Btato Conventions met this week. The California Democrats mot in Ban Francisco to nominate a Htate ticket. The Bepublicans of lowa met, on Wednesday, at Des Moines for a similar purpose. It is not surprising, however start ling it may bo, that $567,000,000 of American railway bonds were last year in default, while a correspond ingly large quantity of railway stocks were paying no dividends. Tub New York World says the rec ords of the negro in the United States for the past ten years conclusively show that he has degenerated in pro portion as he has sequestered himself from the influences of white civiliza tion. The Cincinnati Enquirer says that preparations are being tnado at Quin cy, 111., to receive 200 Jesuit priests, who are expected to arrive in a few days from Germany, whence they have been expelled by tho edict of Bismarck. - • ♦ If Boss Tweed is In jail in Now York waiting for that $3,000,000 bail, why is Boss Shepherd still walking tho streets of Washington unmo lested, and General (?) Littlefield so gorgeously Independent in Jackson ville, Florida ? When Scott A Cos. took possession of South Carolina the public debt of the State was less than $8,000,000. Under their fostering care it suddenly grew to over $20,000,000, “with an in definite verge for oxpanslou,” to use an expression of the Governor’s. — THE voters of Leo county, Ala., arc earnestly requested to call upon their Beat Registrars and register immedi ately, no other registration being valid. The books will bo closed on the 17th of July, tho time prescribed by law. i ♦ Gov. Tilden, of Now York, has vetoed the bill shortening life sen tences. 110 says: “To tho heinous crimes of murder in the second de gree, rape and arson in tho first de gree, should bo attached a punish ment proportionate to their enor mity." By order of the Prussian Govern ment tho German language Is to be made-phonetic In its spelling, and Professor Raumer, of Erlangen, is now at work eliminating superfluous letters and preparing a series of rules which will bo adopted in tho public schools. This is tho way it strikes tho Cin cinnati Gazette: "Now is Governor Hendricks’ opportunity. Allen and Thurman are killed off in Ohio. Pen dleton never lmd any chance. Hen dricks is tho representative Western Democrat. ‘Let him make hay while the sun shines.’" The New York Hvrld, in au article on “Gold, Paper, ami Land,’’ says: “To the two groat standards of value in all civilised countries, gold and land, or Its productions, tho United States added In 1872 a third, Govern ment Promises. Of these there are floating about the country at present some $382,000,000; indeed, so plenti ful are they at the great commercial centres that they can be borrowed of tlio glutted bonks at 2 per cent, per annum on good security.” We hazard the assertion that not a celestial fire-cracker will be exploded on the 4th of July.. Many of 113 well remember old Mr. Bumis' Fourth-of- July cannon, and the hundreds of gaily mounted fautastiea. But these, with other light-hearted joys of tho old Fourth, belong to the days of “Auld lang syne.” Until the country Is united upon the basis of “justiee to nil, and malice to none," the Fourth of July will not be tho day we cele brate. 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. Here is a catalogue: Republican*. Democrat*. B. If. Bristow, T. A. Hendricks, O. P. Morton, A. G. Thurman, E. B. Wnshburne, W. Allen, E. 1). Morgan, T. F. Bayard, H. Wll.ion, J. H. Black, J. G. Blaine. S. J. Tilden. The following shows how Indian iaus treat negroes who assault white women. Lynch law is the only tri bunal competent to try such villains: 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. Lei ter from Truj. 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 rains of tho past week have 1)0011 general throughout the county. Weather exceedingly warm, with prospects of moro rain soon. Tyco. 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 largest hotel structure in tlie world, it covers 06,250 square feet of ground, and is seven stories high; 24,661,000 bricks were used in its walls, 3,000 tons of east and wrought iron, and 4.501,524 feet of lumber and timber. It contains 1,060 windows, 377 of ’which are bay windows; 030 rooms, none of less size than 16x16 feet, and 388 bath rooms. It. contains over three miles of halls; there are five passenger elevators and seven grand stairways; there are 4,540 doors, 9,000 gas burners, and thirty-two miles of gas and water pipe. It requires 50,- 000 yards, or twenty-eight miles of carpet. It can accommodate 1,200 guests, besides 360 servants and em ployees. And, best of all, there is not a dark or windowless room in the house. It has been decided to run a length of heavy plate glass, sixteou inches high, along the top of the balusters and balustrades, as a pre caution against accidents by children sliding down the balusters or climb ing the balustrades. This plate glass will reflect the gas jets, and at night the interior courts will present a daz zling scene. —\Ye heard on the streets yester day afternoon t hat suits for pretty lags amounts would be instituted against the city by ono or two parties bv the obstructing n tributary of South river iu budding the water works; one of the parties complain ing being proprietor of a cotton facto ry and the other of a grist mill, both located on the stream above referred to.— Atlanta Constitution. MuwiMirri A.vn daxi be. 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.
