The Banditti are muking things lively in Illinois, and the lowa papers say that crime was never so prevalent in that State. Let tho United States troops be sent to preserve order, by oppressing tho conservative citizens and upholding the disorderly thieves, rabble and carpet-baggers. “What is saiieo for the goose should be sauce for tho gander.” The living expenses of the live members of tho tirm of Duncan, Hhormun & Cos. aggregated *150,000 a year. Yet not a dollar of their own capital was invested in their Dank! Here wo have a “great house” doing an enormous business upon capital provided how?

Tue New York Sun says that for forty years tho New York canals have been the fruitful cess pool of corrup tion, and advocates tho sale of them by tho State to private companies. It is tho exiiorienee of mankind that publie properties which yield rovo -11013) generally fall into the hands of political jobbers, who uso them to make all out of them possible; and this policy is pursued so far that it becomes actual robbery. This class of po|ierty should never be owned by the Government, The St. Louis Rt'imbllcnn says thill nn earnest attempt will bo made by the Democrats to carry Mississippi, 41 tho coming Kali election. Ever sirteetlie war t.lmt State has been re garded as hopelessly under the con trol of carpet-baggers, and colored voters. But it is now a question wheth er the apparent numerical suprema cy Is founded on fact.

EX-r*Btsrnsu varkeu's release. CItART.nSTov, 8. <?., Aug. 17. Ex- Treasurer Barker was released from custody lust night, at Columbia, by .1 udge Mackey on a writ of habeas corpus. The ground of the release was thodofovtlve nature of the .Sher iff's retvirn, the return not alleging fraud. Barker was Immediately re arrested for grand laoony. His coun sel then Wi'cofded in getting him re leased oil S:I,GW> bait. It Is believed Parker will forfeit his bail and es cape. Later. After his release last night ox-Treasurer Parker want to his Tio&fto. It is now ascertained that he took tho train for Augusta at :t a. m. If. is very probable he will never again be seen in South Carolina. Tue Philadelphia Inquirer suggests tbe name of William Welsh as the successor of Delano. It says: No Other man would brlngto the offloesuch tKH'uiiar iitness as William Welsh. He lias made the Indian problem the study of years, lius seen Tt an* revolved it in all its bearings, and come to his conclusions through patient, inquiry. He has shown him self thoroughly informed on Indian affairs, and bus.earned the gratitude of his countrymen by exposing the corruption which has made tbe In dian Oflioe a shame and a reproach. Let Mr. Delano, who bus demonstra ted his unfitness, give place to Mr. Welsh, who has shown himself the man, above all meu, best suited to tlie ofllee of Secretary of tho Interior. Such an appointment would be emi nently satisfactory to the immediate friends dr tho President, to the peo ple of Philadelphia, and of Pennsyl vania, and, above all, to the people of the entire count ry. We think this is the best suggestion that we have heard yet. It will tend to unearth a number of villainies now studiously concealed. The present population of Keu tueßy is l.MEfill scattered over 37,- 680 square miles, or thirty-live per sons to a square mile. Tho population of Brooklyn, New York, foots up 483,252, an increase in live years of 67,152, .4 M'OIIOI.IC DRINK*. jf Use u llttlo wine for thy stomach's sake, and thine often Infirmities,” is advice found in tho Good Book. Hu manity obey* the dlvino Injunction without a murmur. As to the Indi vidual, however, this advice depends upon circumstance*. Where the ten dency to strong drink 1* hereditary, It should bo treated as a disease. But we write chiefly of the masses. We believe the evil effect* of strong drink to lie greater in America than in other countries. In all wine-growing countries, where wino Is taken as a daily beverage by tho laboring classes, drunkenness is exceedingly rare. In those countries general con sumption makes tho culture of the grape general and profitable, and it is not necessary to poison these liquor* in order to proilt by tho sale. Our Georgia cities strike at a much dreaded evil when they prohibit the sale of spirituous liquors by the drink; hut wherever tills has been tried, drunkenness has increased in stead of having been thereby dimin ished. Wo wish, however, that every town in Georgia would do this; be cause it would lead our people to reflect long onough to teach them some plan by which the evil could be remodled. The Now York World says; “It is not alcohol which does the mischief, hut impure alcohol. In Great. Britain this evil of poisonous liquor* prevails to a less extent than here, first, because the liquors most largely consumed gin in England and whiskey in Scotland and Ireland —are of homo manufacture, and are comparatively inexpensive; second ly, on account of tho thorough legis lation with reference to adulteration, such ns that of beer with tobacco and spirits with fusel-oil and sulphuric ucid. Here, however, we have a high duty encouraging dilution in the tirst pluee, which must then bo atoned for by giving the liquor additional strength from chemical substances; and we ure wholly without the re straint of an adequate inspection. The result is that our liquors are, us a very general rule, the most abom inable In tho world. Even in the better class Of resorts they are far from being pure, while in the 'dog geries’ and ‘bucket shops' they attain an incredible utroolty, so that those whom bad liquor is most likely to affect disastrously are those to whom tlie worst liquor is furnished.” There must be drinking. It is sheer nonsense to try to prohibit it utterly. But when we see tho hollow eye of woman whose grief-traced lineaments speak with tho eloquence of misery of the trials euusod her by the erring father or husband, whoso noble im pulses have been drowned in poison ous liquor, or when we see the once brilliant intellect clouded and befog ged by the demon of alcohol, so that tlie brute Instincts of tile man tri umph over reason, and the excellen cies of his native character siuk un der the weight of self reproach, we feel that something should he done to arrest the growing evil. We do not believe in praying before bnr-rooms, or crusades against a nec essary want; init, we do think that tlie most stringent laws should be passed against those who may be convicted of adulterating their liquors. Let the French custom be adopted of placard ing saloons and stores whore poison ous liquors arc gold, and official warn ings in that manner he given. If it be necessary let chemists of undoubted nerve and Integrity of character be appointed, whoso duty it shall lie to inspect, analytically, all liquors offer ed for sale in every city in tlie State. We do not object to drinking good liquors, but wo do object to tho clau destloe system of murdering in order that individuals may prosper. All over the United States (his is a com mon evil, and it should bo boldly un covered and sincerely combatted. The New York Tribune lias the fol lowing allusion to Jefferson Davis: For reasons over which lie has no control, he cannot appear in public, much less make a speech, without giving rise to bitter and angry fel l ing. He has done more harm than almost any other man who over fig ured in our history. He tbok a prom inent purl in fomenting the wicked and causeless conspiracy which ended in war. He was tlie head and front of the rebellion as long as it lasted. He took no means to mitigate its hor rors or alleviate its acrimony. When ever ho addressed an audience, he ap pealed to tho bitterest mid basest, passions to rouse them against the people of the North. This was not a necessity of his position. Abraham Lincoln set him a far different exam ple. No man ever heard from his lip* anything like the savage malice which formed the staple of Davis’ speeches. And now that we can hike a somewhat calmer view of the war than was possible ten years ago, we must still insist that Mr. Davis did not do ull in his power to make it as decent and merciful as possible. The Union prisoners were not treated as well as they might have been, if a generous nud humane man had been President of the Confederacy. A part, at least, of the horrors of Andorson viile and Belle Isle can be charged to his account, Wo deny everything here said, and challenge the Tribune to produce its proofs. The Union prisoners were treated as well as the Confederate prisoners were, and were fed on the same diet that nourished our heroic troops during the struggle. If they wore not more liberally supplied it was because it was not in our power to do better. The richest people, and those most accustomed to luxury and plenty, for months at a time never tasted coffee, and dispensed with what were considered before the war absolute essentials to a civilized exis tence. It was the cruel policy of the North which refused to exchange prisoners with tho Confederate au thorities, that brought upon the Union soldiers the trials to which they were subjected. We are not ex tremists, but wo want fair play, hon est, expression, and tlie truth ou all occasions. Es-Pifflldfiit Johnson's Nruntorlal Suc cessor. Lonsviu.K, Ky., August i:t.—Gov. Porter, of Tennessee, in response to the demands of East Tennessee, has appointed D. M. Key to succeed ex- President Johnson in the United States Senate. The Courier-Journal’s Nashville special says: “Mr. Key Inis not figured much in Tennessee poli ties. Ho is a man of forty-five, of decided talent, diffident, retiring and very popular in his owu section, but is not generally known throughout the State.” —— . Idle Operative*. In Lynn, Massachusetts, 15,000 op eratives of the boot and shoe houses are on a strike. In Fall ltlver, Massachusetts—a elty rti 43,000 lnhabltantn-tho operatives in the cotton and mixed goods manu factories have struck and they are now Idle to tho number of 15,000. In Dundee, Scotland, 31 rams and 12,000 operatives have been idle since tho 21th of July. In Ashton-under-Lyn, GO mills and 8,000 employees are idle. In Oldham 180 mills and 30,000 op eratives are idle, and this state of things prevails all over the manufac turing districts of England. The most striking refutation of the claim asserted by tho British dele gates at Dalton, that wo could pur chaso manufactured goods in Eng land for consumption in the Mouth cheaper than wo can manufacture them, if tho tariff laws requiring a duty on all foreign manufactured pro ducts were repealed, Is the fact that English manufacturers are moving their mills, to a large extent, to India, where tho cotton is produced. The custom of shipping raw cotton to England and bringing back tho man ufactured articlo to India, is dimin ishing every year. The year 1888 will see the largest manufactories of cot ton In America located in the South, und year by year, our manufacturing facilities are destined to increase from tlds time forth. .Vo Southern cotton factoru U idle. PI 111,1 ft OPINION. That riots have occurred and mur ders increased in the Mouth under the reconstruction dispensation, must be admitted; but upon whom' rests the resjionsibility for tlie fact ? Certainly an unprejudiced judgment will say upon tlie North. The Fed eral Administration, elected by tlie Northern people, and sustained by the Northern People through force of nrms, organized and established in these State* tho carpet-bag Gov ernments, composed of the worst class of men. The Governors of our •States have been robbers; the mem bers of our Legislatures have been thieves; the Judges of our courts have been bribe-takers and shysters, and tlie officers of the law, generally, have been ignorant, rascally, coward ly fellows, who ought themselves to be in our jails and penitentiaries. It is not astonishing that, under such dominance, crime lias increased, and that the lawless men amongst us have grown bold and defiant. Indeed the only wonder is that the condition of affairs is not inttnitely worse; the only wonder is that, with the Kel loggs as- Governors, the Field* as chief law officers of the States, Lud lingsos Chief Justices of the Supreme Courts, with robbers composing the Legislatures, and thieves ami pam pered vagabonds as peace officers, there is amongst us either security for property, or protection for life.— Shreveport Timex. The people of no State need be long troubled witli dishonest or incompe tent officials if they hot take upon themselves the task of remedying matters. They cannot expect to be well served unless they exercise care in tho selection of their servants. Honest, capable men in office will insure honest and efficient adminis tration lower taxation and better re sults with less exiiemllture. Iu the township, in the city, in the county, in tlie .State, and in the nation this is certain to be the ease' Detroit Tree Trent (Vent.) We know of no reason why we should assume that u Republican ac cused of wrong-doing in office is guilty, und proceed to attack him, in advance of proof of the fact; nor do we know any reason why we should say a Democrat is Innocent, after proof of ills guilt bus been adduced, We neither attack Republicans pre maturely, nor defend Democrats who cannot bo defended. Each must stand the Inexorable rest of the facts. Republicans can rely upon entire fair ness at our hands, equally with Dem ocrats ; and neither can expect us to defend them if evidence is against them.— Albany Argun t Deni.) There is every indication of both political parties going to pieces in tho coming Presidential election. Tho Republicans appear to be ready to di vide upon the “third term” issue, ami the Democracy are hopelessly devill ed on tho money question. Kaunas City (Mo.) Knot (hot.) The South Carolina courts will have to hear a heavy burden of suspicion if ex-Treasurer Parker, as now seems probable, manages to escape punish ment for his crimes. After tho civil suit went against him, Parker, by breaking jail, showed his unwilling ness to stand trial on the criminal charges, if he did not, ns many be lieve make confession of guilt. Yet we now hour that he has been relascd from custody on the ground of a de fect in the Sheriff's return, and that on a second arrest he was released on giving bail in the paltry sum of *2,- 000. The way of this transgressor seems by no hieans hard. T. T. Tri bune. Occasionally n genuine unconvert ed rebel turns, up, and gives tlie reconciled patriot anew sensation. Gen. P. M. It. Young said the other day that if the North and Mouth Imd understood each other formerly as they do now there never would have been a war. Whereupon the Colum bus (GaJ Times says, on the con trary, the South would have been lighting yet, and proceeds: “What are the evidences that bring these gentlemen to so charitable ana hope ful a eouslusion ? Except to hang our leaders and butcher our women and children, what could the enemy have done that they have left undone? What ‘hidden thunder,’ still chained in tlie vast storehouse of hellish Northern invention, tins not yet belched forth upon us ? What ro finement of cruelty and cowardice has not spent its force upon us, and into what depth of humiliation have we not been plunged ? What odious enactment lias been swept from tlie statute book, and what material loss has been or gives promise of being repaid?” And this: “Indeed! yes, indeed! Our soldiers have been ask ed to annoiut with oil. and bow be fore the altar upon which our hopes and prospects have been sacri ficed, to appease n Moloch of envy and hate. Upon Bunker’s Hill they have been permitted to drop peniten tial tears for an hottest attempt to preserve from ruin the principles it was reared to commemorate.” Which minimis one of ttie tears and tones of Miss Miggs. Ted York Tri bum'. Now who is Miss Miggs ? Will the Tribune explain ? —The Liberty county Messenger says a lad named Baggs, who was bitten by a rattlesnake one day last week, was entirely cured by whiskey internally and in large doses, ami a mixture of salt and the white of an egg applied to to the wound. The snake was a seven footer. Tho Cincinnati Enquirer has this to say of the struggle in Herzegovina: The irreslstibls. conflict between the Cross and tW Cresaant hu< afi re rod so much already into tlie iujrir reutiou in iWzrgovum. that ihopreL ability of a “religious war” urising from it U very great. Thu hatred of tho Turks among the Herzegovinians and kindred people is Intense, and appears to survive wars which ended in utter defeat. As late as 1881 -’C2 the Herzegovinians maintained a struggle against Turkey for nine mouths, and although then overpow ered by an unity of 32,iX(0 men, they appear to boas resolaU; und as un controllable to-day as eyer. Tim Shreveport Timex says : Com modore Vanderbilt is worth over one hundred millions of dollars; he lias twenty-live millions In the Western Uniouidone; his Income Is one mil lion dollars a month. Ho has placed in his will *45,000,000 in stock of the New York Central Railroad so that his family will control the road after his death. He is now lighting Scott, of tho Pennsylvania Central, und Garrett, of the Baltimore* Ohio, in the matter or freight und passenger rates, from Mt. Louis east ward, with the chances for whipping the light largely In his favor. This fight for Mt. Louis eastward bound freights will be a great benefit to Hhroveport as her through cottons to the East via Mt. Louis will get the benefit of the reduction. The capital of the national banks has now reached a higher levol than ever before. -It amount is *501,000,Out), against $487,<XK),000 two years ago. The number of tho banks is 2,078, showing an increase of thirty-one banks during the last two months. These thirty-one banks have an ag gregate capital of about *4,000,WK), so that theaverage capital of each Insti tution is less than *130,000. i’rom other facts referred to it appears that the new hanks which are just begin ning to rise up throughout tho coun try, under the stimulus of the recent financial legislation, are all of them hanks of small capital, The Hhreveport Timex puts it thus : We freely admit that, if a preponder ance of wealth and power constituted refinement and righteousness, our poor section could not make a very flattering showing just now; that if the construction of vast railroads out of Government, subsidies; the growth of great cities; and tho organization of gigantic schemes of material im provements, rotten with corruption, made up a record for national glory, social culture and refinement, the North and West would have much to boast, of, and the South might bow in humiliation and shame.
