The fifth, thir teenth, fourteenth and fifteenth dis tricts elected radical delegates, giv ing that party twelve members In the Convention. In Dougherty nod adjoining coun ties the long drouth bus cut off the corn crop 50 per cent, und the cotton crop probably 25 per cent, or more. Our correspondent there now, writes us as follows: “We are having too much rain entirely here, and I think crops will be very short.” He is well situated, und well quulllled to judge of the condition of the crops. We trust the true condition of the crops may be made known before they pass out of the bunds of the planters. ■—- .. Two of the monkeys at the Jurdin des Plantes, at Paris, fought a duel witli knives the other day. By some ueoldouttwo large clasp knives were left by one of the keepers In tlio cage of the animals, and no sooner hud they been perceived than two of the largest monkeys seized them, opened the blades, and fell upon each other liken pair of men. One of them was killed ut the first pass, whilst Ills ad versary had one of Ids paws nearly out off. — . • Wnugree with the Washington Star that the new third party, which was set. upon its plans iu Boston last Sat urday, upon the basis of electing N. P. Banks to the presidency and La mar, of Mississippi, to the vice Presi dooy, is not likely to luet through the frosts of early autumn, much less live to weather the stormy blasts of a presidential campaign next year. The performance reminds one very much of the famous Philadelphia urm-ln-urm convention, and that, we believe didn’t bear much presidential fruit, so to speak. Fx-Gov Vance, of North Carolina, in his recent address before the Southern Historical Society, related a secret incident of tiie war. Ho said that soon after the fuiluro of t fie Hampton Roads conforcuco ho was visited by the late Gov. Gruham, who stated to him that many of the Sen ators and Represenutives ill the Con federate Congress and other leading men believed that the end of the war was near, and despairing of obtaining peace through Mr. Davis, they desired Air. Vance, os Governor of North Car olina, to enter into separate terms with President. Lincoln. Gov.Vunce said that he declined to hike the de sired step. The mnV Constitution of Missouri provides that: The Legislature shall meet once in two years, cannot have adjourned sessions, and if it is in ses sion longer than seventy days every member loses £1 a day from his pay, which in the regular session is $5. Every amendment, must ho incor porated with tin; original bill, and printed with 'it before any action is taken, and no motion to reconsider at a future time can be entertained If a bill is lost. The necessary expen ses of the Suite Government, inter est, sehool, charitable and other funds must be provided for before money is voted for anything else. ,i ust such a Constitution would be tlie salvation of every State. Espec ially iu Georgia, do we want some compulsory law to prohibit so much expenditure of time and money by our Legislature. One good step to ward effecting an early adjournment ef the Legislature would be to move tlie Capitol to Milledgovllle. The peculiar fascinations of Atlanta are not there, and the average Hon. Mr. Somebody would consent to hurry through with the business and ad journ, rather than die of I'lmai. Tins Western cotton crop is not so good as has been reported, us can be seen by the following from the Shreveport Times correspondent: “1 have nothing good to report from tlie cotton crop. The lice are devour ing the hill crop on all lands, and they are retarding the crop on fresh and bottom lands to such an extent that we can calculate on no top crop. Many people call it rust, but it is no such thing; it is Hoc. If a man tells yon his cotton has rust on it, tell him to go home and look at the underside of the leaves and see it they are not lielng devoured by lieu. I think the crop hero in this part of the country will be about two-thirds as large as last year, where good prolitlo seed wore planted, and about a halt crop where the old kind of seed wore planted. Iff observation Is that lice are on all the cotton, but in good fresh hill lands and on strong bot tom lauds the cotton can bear up aud is not so much affected as in poorer lands, I attribute this disease to tlie cold nights and damp atmosphere, but it is something Unit I never knew to occur before. ” “Colonel Pompey, how isyoudis morning?” “Look'ee hero nigga, don’t you call mo Colonel no more, since the white folks done run dis thing in do ground. I’se a Major, or nothing, arterthls.” Keren iflte. Jmlicr* of the Mtpmiip Couri over worked -The ('nose Slid the Hrinrdy. This subjoot is now receiving great attention throughout the State. Since writing our last article on the subject wo have InvestlgaTed" the matter closely, and to a certain extent have changed our opinion regarding the necessity for new Judges. ! There are many suggestions being 1 made by members of the bar and the j press of the State as to the best meth od of lessening the labors of the members of the Supreme Court. Let I us enquire tile cause of the great labor lof that bench. Anyone who Is con j versant witli the decisions of that tri bunal cannot be at a loss to uccount for the Increase of litigation In that court. The opinions of the Judges, Instead of being decisions upon the points made, are argument* and e,**ag upon kindred questions ami some times upon questions not germain, entirely outside of the ease to be con sidered, thus Inviting litigation und strife. Our reports are lilted with opinions of this description, thus causing cases to bo carried up as well us taxing the legal profession to pro cure them at great expense. The de cisions are unsatisfactory not because the questions made in the case adju dicated are not decided right, but be cause tiie obiter diela of the Judge is unsatisfactory. Hence a spirit of liti gation is engendered, and the conse quence is a decision of the court be low, honestly and correctly follow ing. The 01/iter of the Judge of the Supremo Court is carried up to the Supreme Court and the judgment of tiie court below reversed. Now it cannot be denied but that the Judges of the Supreme Court are themselves responsible for this. In this way they have imposed the labor on them selves, of which they now complain. What is the remedy ? Let the opinion of the Judge pronouncing the judg ment of the Court be a decision of the points made in tiie record, and not an argument of error* upon questions outside of tiie record; for every Judge well knows that no argument, how ever conclusive, ever satisfied the party losing his cause. This will tend to lesson the number of cases carried to the Supreme Court. it lias been suggested that tho Leg islature pass some law providing that, only eases involving a certain amount shall go to tho Supreme Court. This can not bo done under our constitu tion, ns it now stands. That instru ment provides that “The right of the people to appeal to the courts shall nover bo impaired,” and, however small the matter involved iu contro versy, tho party aggrieved lias the right of uppeal to the courts, and no legislation can Impair tills right. And the suggestion of an intermediate Court of Appeal is impracticable. The present system is rigid, ; the courts are open to all; and tho evils complained of, can be remedied by those who caused them. There Is one suggestion which is well worthy of consideration by the Legislature, not so much on account of its being in a great degree a rem edy, but on uccount of its inherent justice. If the Supreme Court was by law invested witli power not only to impose damages upon the party who carried a cose to that Court with out good and sufficient grounds, but also to tax tiie party with reasonable attorney's fees for tho prevailing side, it would both bo doing justice and would prevent unnecessary litigation. But let tho Court commence the reformation, and their burdens will lie lightened. Nirlkc* ami Protection. Early In tlie winter the iron work ers of Pittsburg struck against what they conceived to be unjust exactions by their employers, but after “wait ing out” for five weeks they had to accept tlio terms of the capitalists. Not many weeks ago an extensive strike umongthe coal miners of Penn sylvania was brought to a close in fa vor of the mine owners. Lately there have been fifteen thousand mill op eratives on a strike lathe city of Fall lliver. Tho most noticeable thing iu tlioso three strikes is the fact, that they are all "protected industries.” For many years past every consumer of coal, iron amt textile fabrics, has been compelled to pay more for them than they were worth in open markets of the world, to the end that American mills and mines bekeptinoperation. Tho farmer was net protected; tlie cotton grower, tho tobacco raiser, the mason, the carpenter and others were left to depend upon their own skill,hut to tlie end Unit the unprofitable spin ning of cotton and wool might lie done iu Massachusetts, and iron dug in Pennsylvania everybody in the country was forced t,o pay a premium to the home manufacturer. The operative miner and spinner do not seem to have been protected by Protection. It has not helped tlie farmer much who for years Ims had to give three bushels’ of grain for what he could have poreured for two bushels laid there been no protective tariff. It, lias not, that wo can see, helped tho ship building trade of tlie United States; for tho ship building trade of the country is lifeless. Who lias it helped? Is tlie answer not given by the fifteen thousand opera tives on strikes iu tile city of Fall lliver. just as it was given by tlie miners of Pennylvania? It has had tlie effect of innktig a few men rich, of rearing a few colossal fortunes, of erecting some enormous monopolies, “Lot. every man soil at. the highest and buy at the cheapest,” is an old and true proposition, legislation against which contravenes one of the clearest laws of trade. — Lynchburtj Xe ics. From the Jackson (Miss.) Times, we learn that that city is now quite prosperous. Its population is about tl.ooo, nnd steadily increasing. Besides being tlie capital of Mississippi, it is handsomely situated on Pearl river, near the geographical center of tlie State, and is furnished with railroads north, south, east and west. Churches in abundance and good schools, are notable features of the place. Much 1 new building is going on, and the ! street railway is being extended, so j t hat four miles of road will soon be 'in use. Around, it there is a tine agrt ; cultural country, and the Times says itlie citizens are liberal minded and i anxioustoenoourage immigration. ! —The Fort Valley Mirror says that a man in lleynoids, while digging a well, at the depth of forty-two feet came to a log of wood in a perfect state of preservation. ri HUC OPINION. | The South has changed rapidly and I greatly. A policy like that of Gen eral Grant, while It may have been useful and necessary eight years ago, or even four years ago, is no longer necessary, and lias become extremely injurious and even dangerous. The prevailing feeling to-day umong the Northern people is that the negro has had his chance, and that ho must now, ten years after the close of the war, make fils own future. There are Republican demagogues who would like nothing as well as to seen mussaere of colored men between now and the Presldontal election.— .V. V. Herald. In spite of agricultural losses and commercial disaster, of political tur moil and official rasculity, the future of South Curolina is rich in promise : and bright witli hope.— Charleuton Courier. Asa matter of fact, we suppose it is universally admitted that tiie prime cause of the present business depres sion is tho lack of confidence. It is not that capital is needed to initiate new or carry on established enter prises. There is plenty of capital; but it is idle; the money market is glutted. Tho trouble is that values are unstable, and capital, prover bially timid, shrinks from the unu sual risks of investment.- Kn lamge. I'lin-lKii Value of Aiiirrlenu Title*. One of our American colleges at its last oomtnenoomt i t sought to distin guish itself by conferring upon John Bright, the commoner and states man, the degree of Doctor of Laws. He declines the honor and gives his reasons at some lengtli in a courteous reply to tho trustees. Ho says : This very degree of LL. IX, which you have sent me, appropriately em balmed in a dead language I which I am not ashamed to say I cannot read ) is, I find, conferred upon comic lec turers, and scarcely loss eotnienl preachers, while the degree of DI). adorns the names of your Fultotis as well as those of your Mark Hopkins. Where all wear the same title, do you not degrade those who deserve it to the level of those who bring it into disrepute and ridicule ? As there is not a civil or political title, from King to Constable, that lias not been worn bv an unworthy European, so, you will permit mo to say, there is not a literary or learned degree which has not been conferred upon addle headed and rattle-brained Americans. Nay, more; your country is disgraced by some who drive a lively trade in these degrees. He then quotes the advertisements in English papers of |iersons who un dertake to secure these titles, giving £2O ns tiie total cost of an American University degree. He numbers some of tho German Universities in this class who sell their diplomas, just as beer and Indian corn are sold. • Gen. Pickett’s Kindheartepness The St. Louis Time*, alluding to the recent death of the Confederate Gen eral l’ickett, relates the following in cident of the famous charge at Get tysburg: I’ickett put himself at the head of Ids Virginians. He had an aid-de-camp, a boy almost, and the only son of a mother who idolized him. Just before the column broke from a parade rest into a run, tho General spoke to his staff officer ten derly and asked him if he, the aid-de camp, were killed in the ehurge who would be sorrowed for him. “My mother,” tho boy answered, some thing like a tear dimming Hie glint of his steel blue eye, and busied him self no further with the future. Not so with Pickett. Just as he mounted upd moved out at, the head of Ids troops, he called tiie young officer to him and sent Idm with an important message to a distant part of (lie field. When the boy returned the division was decimated. His commander had just taken tho trouble to save his life. Prof. (Jeoi'U'P W.
