It is estimated that .Jay Gould has made from $1%00,000 to $15,000,000 by his operations in Union Paeiile and other stocks during the past year. “Every dog has his day.” This is true with regard to Spanish affairs. Don Carlos is now reported to be getting ill tiie ascendant again. —■— —' ' *■• ♦ ♦ In a speech at a dinner given him by the Canada Club, Earl Duffer! u said the prevailing passion of the Ca nadians was a desire to maintain In tact their connection wttli England. The occupants of six hundred shan ties along the lines of New York rail roads rnuke a living by plunting corn and potatoes between tiro rails and the fences. It is said that 900 acres are cultivated in this way. • ♦ • A test was recently made of the buoyant power of a leaf of the water illy known us the Victoria Regia, in the botanic garden of Ghent. Bricks woro heaped over its entire area, and before it was submerged in the water a weight of 7(!l pounds was floated. • ♦ • Under the regime, of President Grant there lias boon one economy. In tiie bills of previous Presidents there was a regular yearly salary ol sllsO for books for tho library of the Executive Mansion. Under Grant that salary disappears. They don’t want any books. St. Louis Bepiiblican: Ten thous and copies of the forthcoming book of the Detroit Free Free* man, “SI Quad’s Odds,” have been already sub scribed for, it is said, mid uuy one who says that tho American people liavn't u taste for hilarity is evident ly mistaken. It is said by the Richmopd Dispatch tliut the manner in which tiie .South ern people, denuded of their wealth, have taxed themselves to educate no groes, who pay so smull a part of the public revenue, is one of tho most rc murkuble instances of the liberality and philanthropy of a people on rec ord. The wealthiest man in Atlanta, On., is worth but four hundred thousand dollurs.— Cincinnati Enquirer. And he is probably the wealthiest man in tho State. Asa people, we are very poor. Tho people of the North have no conception of how much wo lit vo endured. • • TheN. Y.

This is a hobby in the West. Is it not best for tiie State Government to havo nothing to do with industrial enterprises? We think that either the railroads should bo owned by the Stare or be lot alone. All legislation like State aid, or tiie exemption of manufactures, defeats its own aims by counter legislation subsequently. Wo believe the policy of Uiisscr fairc.

Well, if what she has got in the shape of a Government is a Republic we never heard it called by that name before. Hite has Louis Napoleon's Government in operation to-day, wit h McMahon at the head. Sho is a Re public without trial by jury; without liberty of the press; without any thing that constitutes a free State. Outside of Paris the peasantry would vote to-morrow to restore Napoleon IV. rt XENAI. OBMPApTES. Tim great love, esteem and venera tion in which General Benning was held by his life-long neighbor* and friends, found fitting expression in tho largo concourse assembled to do honor to his memory on Sunday morning. For hours before thut fixed for the funeral, tho streets around his lute residence, were plucked by those unable to find admittance with in. All that public or private love could suggest to show appreciation of Ids worth, was done. The solemn burial service wtu* reuil, the long pro cession formed iu order, and ull that was mortal of Henry L. Benning con veyed to tiie narrow homo appointed for all the living. The military and civic authorities, and the Bar, were present in a' body. “Angels of life and death alike are His; Without His leave they pass no thresli hold o’er; Who, then, would wish or dare, believing this, Against His messenger to shut the door?” And tiie angel of death who sum moned this hero and sage, bore a lit tle waxen form from another sadden ed household in our midst. .Scarcely were heralded the sad tidings of Gen. Bcnnlug’g death, ere tile spirit of lit tle Jamie Hanscrd took its flight to meet tho little brother angel tliut had gone before. Tho one life, matured—gathered when full of years and full of honors; the other just opening. All the great and nobler possibilities tliut had been grandly fulfilled in Gen. Benning, to be developed, in another sphere from this in tiie younger life. Could care and love and skill havo availed to avert the sad blow, we would not this morning havo to offer our tonderest sympathies to tho bereaved parents in the loss of their beautiful boy. "Ho died an die* tho morning star That sinks not down behind tho darkened West, Nor hides obscured anddat the tempest of the sky, But melts away iu early sunlight, into Heaven.” Hl'.ltO WOK*HIP It must be a comforting thought to Southern people .to contrast the sen timental adulation which the people of the North bestow upon such lead ers us Grant and Beecher, with the love and respect which our people bear for our poor but respected vet erans. Hero worship, then, us evi denced by these two men, the most prominent of tlielr representative men, must be suggestive of the influ ences whieii sway tho masses. Mr. Beecher’s salary has been raised to one hundred thousand dollars; and, after a trial which is the scandal of the period, ho is visited at his Peeks kill Farm by four hundred ardent nr mlrers bearing banners and baskets, to greet their pastor, as if lie were a patriarch. Mr. Stephens has defined the "dem agogue” truly when ho stated that there was a true as well as a false dem agogue. Wo can rocall but few in stances in history which so fully il lustrate the false demagogue as tiie character of Beecher or President Graut. No true demagogue, according to Mr. Stephens, can be less than a hero; no true hero can welcome tho senseless flattery of satellites or the unmanly bonding of the knee tliut “thrift may follow fawning.” Neither Beecher nor Graut reminds one of that emblem of moral government, tho chariot race of the anoients. Neither of thorn would have attained ft niche in the Pantheon; for in ull tho essentials of true heroism, except courage, they are lamentably deficient. Trouble, the war against poverty, the descent from power and fame to tho ordinary avocations of life these are the con comitants of the crucible which re tines the pure gold of tho human character. The plaudits of tiie multitude to tiie prosperous man—safe by being In unison with tho majority—is mistaken for fame and greatness. Well might Lord Orford say to it is sou, “Quote me, not history, for that I know to boa lie!” if such men as Beeoher are to receive hero worship. A true hero, and one who deserves tho love that is next to worship, is he whose deeds, whether in peace or war, in riches or in poverty, fights against adversity and yet listens to the demands of the poor and with the hand of charity widely relieves the cry of distress. His sovereign ambi tion will bo held in check only by a will regulated by the demands of duty. A true hero is he who easts aside tho honors that gratify a laud able ambition from conscientious motives, lays aside tho General’s uniform to don the dress of the ordi nary citizen, and by his life gives a guido for his people in peace as well as in war. Such a man is truly great. Tho General of volunteers becomes the citizen General, and literally dies in harness. Though poor In purse, he is rich iu tho love of liis people, who throng tho highway that leads to his last resting place—the bivouac of tho dead. Tho whole people, with out regard to class, or age, or color, or sex, or faith, with one impulse ac cord to tho true hero all that a true hero deserves - universal regrets from manly hearts, and universal tears from tho gentler sex. This is the only hero worship that finds a lodg ment in the Southern breast. “Let him not t>oast who puts his armor oil As lie who puts It off, tho battle done.’’ The man who will now go to work and rake up old embers from the late war, and fun them by his breath into anew flame of hatred that was dying out -who will endeavor in that man ner to prevent the restoration of good feeling between brethren who nave been estranged—should, in jus tice, receive a severe punishment ratlier than be honored by a contro versy with a gentleman. He belongs to the same class, and should be so considered, with those who malicious ly spread the small-pox or tiie itch and the scarlet fever among their neighbors - who would throw Cay enne pepper or vitriol into the face of the passers-by. In comparison with him an ordinary incendiary is respectable.— Cincinnati Enquirer. tOMNEWEIIIMT IT AI BITtV, AI.A. EXERCISES at TEH ale academy by the , PBI'ILH or MBS. I'HILO E. SCOTT--I'HO (iRAMME OF TO-DAY, ETC.—LABOE CROWD IN ATTENDANCE—COMMENCE MENT SERMON. llditun Times: Having arrived here after a drive (overland? on Friday evening from Hutohecliuljbee, viu Uohee, X am prepured to give you some “dots’-’ about Auburn, her schools and her generous people. Wo attended, on Friday night, the concert of Mrs. Philo E. Scott, u most worthy and cultured lady, who has charge of the Female Academy at this place. Tho acting of plays se lected by Mrs. Scott, and executed by the aid of scenery imported from New York for the occasion, was truly grand and worthy of comment. As no programmes were furnished I can only give mention of a few pieces worthy of note. First, “The War of tho Roses” was elegantly presented. Miss Mollle Cobb, as “Eglantine,” sustained hor character splendidly, while Miss Mattie Smith, as “Glen tilla,” with her musical voice won tho admiration of tiie audience. Master Bobble Saunders, as "Teddy, the Bootblack,” initiated in a solilo quizing song the "Shine ’em U|w.” Were ho only employed by the Uni ted States Government to shine up the well blackened character of Rad ical politicians who were severally engaged In divers back salary steals, etc., Bobbie could do it in style. Miss Mattie Smith recited “Belshaz zar’s Feast” in line style. This young lady deservesjspecial mention, for it is u rare occurrence we sou even older heads who could so well render this piece as to excite the admiration of her hearers. Slit* evidently had stu died It well, and comprehended her subject, as sho seemed to throw her whole soul into tho piece, thereby en hancing the bounty of the rendition. Tiie “Sorrel Top” local of the Timer, and tiie gouty local of the En quirer, should have been present to witness the liest take off of the season on “pin-backs.” I have engaged a couple of photo graphs for their especial benefit, that they may henceforth be happy. The Messrs. Drake furnished some rare music, the best your correspon dent has heard for some time. They are a musical family,so to speak, and must enjoy this accomplishment, so much neglected by our youth. Auburn enjoys a splendid Town Hull, capable of seating about eleven hundred persons comfortably. This hall was used ou Friday night, and an Sunday was used by Dr. Andrews, who delivered the COMMENCEMENT SERMON, as per programme of exercises of the Alabama State Agricultural and Me chanical College. It is perhaps use less for me say that tiie Doctor’s ad dress was a success. All who know this distinguished di vine are acquaint ed with his forcible style of delivery. His text was from the third chapter of Ht. Luke, third verse. The time or! delivery occupied forty minutes. Home excellent music was furnished from the organ and choir.

Yours, etc.. Swamps. Montoomkby, Ala., June tl. 1 ami anxious to make clear two things: That the color lino is a constant peril in tile States in which it is main tained, and that it is kept up how only : by the intervention of the Federal power under the Enforcement net. 1 While the black vote is massed against the white there is a contin ual irritation between thoraces; and this mainly because the white man, j who is the property owner, sees the j black, who seldom owns real estate, used by u few designing whites, to! lay taxes, to make laws, to carry on the government, regardless of tiie wishes and rights of the great liody of intelligent and substantial citizens. I ktttow mauv counties iu which the colored pay in all less than sl,nun of tho annual tuxes, and yet urc* in so great a majority that their votes, massed by unscrupulous demagogues of both colors, constantly waste ami misapply the taxes of the county. 1 have given several eases of this kind in previous letters. Inevitably in such cases there must be a feeling of hostility by the whites toward the blacks, and it is un evidence of the good nature of the mass of whites that in tho main they conduct, them selves toward the blacks kindly and justly. They concentrate their dis like upon the men who have misled and now misuse the black vote, and this I oanuot call unjust. It is com monly said, “The negroes are not to blame; they do not know any bet ter." Mr. Xordhuff tn tht Xeic York Herald . Iti the United States, defalcations, frauds anti breaches of trust are very frequent among her officials, from Governors down; but even when con victed. as in the ease of Tweed, whose spoliation of New York foots up iu the millions, the offenders receive but slight, if any, punishment. How much better the French manage these things than we, is shown by the recent trial, conviction and sentence to ten years’ imprisonment of Adolphe Chastenn, the Prefect of tho Seine, whose defalcation was but 40,tw0 francs, or #.OOO. That is an earnest and just manner of dealing with criminals. — San Francisco Call , M lull It 10-1 to KciqiCairuit.
