Is it net cheaper to Dike a daily pa per costing six dollars per annum than n weekly costing two dollars? Twenty Htutoe are now In the hands of the nomocracy. In uddition to this, the House of Representatives Is Democratic by a large majority. Hence, If an election by the people should fall, the Democratic Congress will control the Presidency. Aovkhtikkuh at a distance are re spectfully referred to our charges for advertising. Wo claim that they are the cheapest lu fite State outside of Columbus, and that onr paper re duced the price of advertising in this oity to its present low rates. Thk Archbishop of Canterbury in Kngland receives $75,000 per annum, and the Archbishop of York $50,000, and these are no one, two or three term positions, but are held for life. Grant, gets $50,000 per annum, and he will get It only one year more. - • • • Da. H. T. Hf.t.mboi.u has been ar rested for the non-payment of his boari.l bill ut the Ocean House, New jx>rt. In view of his singular con duct his recent case against parties for illegally confining him will prob ably full to the. ground. —— ■ ■ • * • The Louisville Ledger says it is sig niileant that all the ’‘Southern out rages” occur just before election day la the Northern States. There was the trouble in Mississippi, the other iluy, for instunce, with thu Maine election near at hand. Hut the trick did not win this time. The Republi can majority is reduced some 5,000 votes, and Morton was wearing the bloody shirt in the State, too. Hkal estate lias depreciated in New York four hundred millions of dol lars, or forty per cent., since the panic of 1873. We, do not believe that the depreciation ovor the whole South Ims been less than that id nee tiie same date, If property was forced on the market. Chicago is In no bet ter condition. In Isolated Instances proimrty has advanced, but on the average the whole country is just realizing the cost of the war. ■- • - It now see.ns that the Cubans are Imitating the barbarous conduct of Gen. Sherman In his much boasted “march to the sea.” Tho New York Sun slates that “the Cubans had or ders to burn every house, and tho painful scenes tlmt are described, where the aged, tho sick, and the helpless were forced to abandon all and go forth completely ruined, show the terrible nature of war.” This Is criminal in the Cubans, but merito rious in the Federal soldiers under Sherman, even when no enemy op posed his march except women and children and infirm old men. Gkn. Couiuitt. The Augusta <\m nttliitionuH.it, speaking of General CoUiultt'a late visit to the Grange meeting in Richmond county, says: “Wo take oocaston to state that Gen eral Colquitt has never said one word about the candidacy for Governor of Georgia. He has, however, for ten years [last, worked hard and most faithfully to elevate the farming in terests of Georgia, delivering address es in a majority of the counties upon purely agricultural topics, totally free from polities, and without even political allusions. The papers have micunstrueted all this Into an ambi tlon to be Governor, thus robbing him of much that is duo him and breakfogthe foree of what lie had to say. After all that has been said, no one actually kuows whether lie would even aeoept, the nomination." Thk Committee on finance and Taxation in their report to the Con stitutional Convention of Alabama, find the total indebtedness of the .State to be about $2:>,000,000, and the total value of the taxablo property übout $159,000,000; that it would re quire nearly twenty per cent, of the outlre taxable proiierty of the State to liquidate the debt. Total would indeed Vie npimlling were it not for t he hope of an adjust ment held out by the Commissioners apiKiiuted to adjust the public debt, by which Alabama may bo relieved from this heavy burden, which is crushing the energies of her people. The direct debt is about $15,000,000, and the contingent, for endorsement of railroads, &0., about $14,000,000. They recommend a reduction of 25 per cent, on all salaries, and a reduc tion of pay and mileage of members of the Legislature from sti to $4 per day, aud from 40 to 10 con' i per mile; recommend that the Legislature shall not in any one year levy more thau Jto 1 per cent, tux upon the pro|wrty of the people for Stale pur- poses. That discovery and the remedies proposed, if carried out, will alone show the wisdom of, and necessity for the Convention. 'l'll* New York Sun thus arraigns the Republican party: After lift eon years of continued rule and complete" possession of every bWHch or the Gbvwhmebt, legisla tive, executive and judicial, this party has brought the country to the very verge of bankruptcy and ruin, de moralised the whole public service, spread corruption everywhere, en oouragod fraud, exerted force for po litical ends, seised Stati-f jtnd govern ed them its satrapies, created infa mous Rings, squandered and stolen the people’s money, sustained huge monoitolies by oppressive taxation, and struck at the liberty of the press for exposing such iniquities. Urnrfln lawyer*. lmllrli-d Inner the HfYfniH laws <H Alabnnm. the Code hffleorgta, }3bs and too, provides for the admission of attor neys fro® other Btates to practice in the Courts of Georgia. A simple certificate from a Judgo of a Circuit or District Court of the State, of which he is a citizen, stating that the applicant, is of good moral character and lias been legally admitted to practice law In such Circuit, and that by tiie laws of such State our attorneys are allowed to practice law therein, and on paying tho Clerk Ills foes for his petition and license, en titles him to practice in our State. This attorney, though he reside in unother State, under §lOl of our Code, can pructiee in our State without any further tax, provided that Stab) al lows our attorneys to do like,wise, No attorney of any other State has ever been required to pay any rovenuo or other tax by the laws of our Slate. Tliis the gentlemen of the profession know all along the line from Florida to Tennessee. Section 896 of the Code of Alabama, has similar provisions to the Code of Georgia recited above. The inten tion of the States was to tax their own attorneys, residing in their borders, and allow attorneys of their sister States to practice law in such State, under the tax paid In the State of their residence, provided such Stute did likewise with its attorneys. The late revenue laws of Alabama have been construed by some Solici tors and grand jurors to violate this long established comity between the States. Several of tho lawyers of this city are now indicted in the j Courts of Alabama for practicing law therein, Wit hout paying this revenue tax. We claim that the revenue law of Alabama admits of no such construc tion as to attorneys residing in sister States, who have been licensed to practice in Alabama us aforesaid. They pay their taxes in their own State and are invited to practice in Ala bama by comity between the States under the tax paid in their State, the lawyers of Alabama being allowed tile same privilege in Georgia. Construing the statutes of Alaba- ma In /niri materia no such indict ment should be found. If the reve nue laws of Alabama should bear such construction, we know that it is a mistake in the law-makers and will lie changed. We are neighbors, and when we are invited to exchange courtesies and have accepted the in vitation, and are carrying it out in good faith, we know that the mag nanimous State of Alabama did not intend to have our lawyers kicked out while complying with a custom hallowed by age and sustained by the laws of both States. • ♦ - llriMtnl corn. liroom corn is now being extensive ly raised in Texas. The Dallas Com mercial says: Broom corn is a profitable article of trade in Dallas. The establishment of a broom factory in this city inis had thu effect of turning tin-attention of farmers living in the county to the cultivation of broom corn, which they find us lucrative as any crop that can lie raised. The broom factory is pros perous, and is adding considerably to the wealth of the city and county. The Florida t’nion has a correspon dent at Knoxville, Toon., who writes as follows: Last spring a man from New York, accustomed to ils cultivation, came out and rented about, sixty acres of rich bottom land on tho river, four or five miles above Knoxville, at ten dollars an acre, and planted it witli out manure: and upon a light plow ing, and with an inexpensive cultiva tion. I judge the crop will average ten hundred pounds, at, least, to the aero, of the best average brush I ever saw worked Into brooms. And tills brush is worth, on the place, from ten to fourteen cents a pound, while the cost of production is but little, if any, moro than a crop of Indian corn. A factory is, or was, located at At lanta, Gu., and the cultivation of broom corn was found to be remuner ative by the very few farmers who tried it. We can not too strongly urge the planting of broom corn by our farmers. We need not only a di versity of erops, but such crops as will cause additional and a diversity of manufactures. We hope to see the day when raw cotton will cease to ho exported on a large scale, and no Northern brooms he brought into Georgia. Let yarns take the place of raw cotton, and brooms used at the South be raised and manufactured at tho South. The New York San contains the following item: A grand jury in North Georgia, having discovered that half the coun ty tat of Bartow county went to de fray the expenses of two sessions of the Superior Court, called the atten tion of the Judge to this fact, and re quested him “so to amend the rules and practice of his court as to facili tate the dispatch of business, and not to allow attorneys to consume so much time in wrangling and in use less ami irrelevant discussions.” The Judge intimated tiiat they wore med dling with matters which they did not understand, and ordered their recommendation to be stricken out of lhe presentment before its publi cation in the official i>aper of the county. In doing this, lie is accused of having exceeded his legitimate power. His action has provoked much indignation, and the Legisla ture is called upon to investigate it. It is generally thought that Ed mund Ruffin, of Virginia, fired the first gun at Fort Sumter. The Itcv. John Douglas, of Steele Creek, tells the Southern Home that this isa mis take. He was residing at that time on James Island and heard the first gun. It was tired by Captain George James, from a little sand battery on James Island. He (Captain James) was killed afterwards at Gettysburg. Tlie second gun was fired by Lieuten ant Wade Hampton Gibbes. also from James Island. The third gun was fired by Mr. Ruffin, from Morris Island. The fourth guu was from Sullivan’s Island, and the fifth was from the Iron Battery.

THE TIMES: SUNDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 111, l*7. r >. If Mr. John 11. James will ]>ay us full advertising rates wo will publish the sketch of his life, but wo decline the following liberali?) offer, which we find in the last Sunny South : Having been frequently applied to by publishers for the engraving of Mr. James which appeared in this paper, we beg to say that it bus passed out of our bands, and when last seen, was in a bad condition.

Till- llsilAlMtrtWlM. The Bonapartists are undoubtly more active in Franco now than they have been before since the adoption of tiie existing Constitution. The Tribune litis the following dispatch : London, Tuesday, Sept. H, 1875. The Daily News this morning has a special telegram from Paris, saying that M. Itouther starts for Areuen lierg (Switzerland) on Wednesday to assist at a grand Bonapartist con clave on Friday. 'Admiral de la Roneiere le Noiiry has also been in vited, but he is undecided whether he will accept. M. Emile Gliiver is cer tainly going. The Bonapartist pro paganda is being energetically pur sued in the barracks of Paris, where the l’aya and the Ortlre are profuse ly distributed gratuitously. The 'Admiral Roneiere le Noury, who is to have an audience with Mar shal McMahon soon, recently lost the command of the Mediterranean fleet through his imperial fervor. If any proof were needed that tiie \ North is thoroughly sick of the “bloody outrage” business, it could | he found in the treatment given to Gov. Ames’incoherent demands for ! troops. Aside from the organs at Washington, only one or two Repub lican journals have shown any sym pathy fur Ames. The general senti ment toward him appears to be fairly expressed by this paragraph from the Utica Herald: “There is a growing impatience over the efforts of such men as Ames to involve the General Government in local troubles that concern it lust of all. There is a gathering conviction that under such a policy tho .Southern question will never he eliminated from our politics, but grow more complicated with the years. Governor Ames’ dispatches heighten this impatience and deepen this conviction.” Tiie tunnel under the British chan nel will be nearly 250 feet below the bottom of the channel. The chan nel Is about 200 feet deep at the deepest part. Sir John Hawksltaw, the famous British engineer, thinks there is no doubt that the tunneling scheme will ho successfully curried out.
