Cox,. D. R. Anthony, the Kansas
editor who was shot in the breast

far advauced toward a eompleto cure
ns to he reinstated in tho editorial
chair of his Leavenworth Times the
duties of which dangerous position
lie Ims resumed, “prepared,” as ho
says in a card announcing the fact,
"to 00-operate with all who will work
to advance the Interests and promote
the welfare of the liumnn race.”
The Washington Chronicle lias
dono a good deal in representing the
agricultural and manufacturing inter
est. of the South, and more than any
oilier journal in misrepresenting the
political condition of our people,
When it is fairly met, and its doc
trines successfully combatted, it
crawls out of it by tho dirty subter
fuge of hard words and ungentleman
ly insinuations. We never willfully
misrepresent the Chronicle, hut, it
impugns the motives of every news
paper that gets the bestof it in an ar
gument. Such is only contemptible.
Recent advices from France mention
thodeutd of a character made fa
mous by the powerful pen of Los
MUrabtos, under the name of “Jean
Yaljean.” His real name woe Martin
Foisemollo and was born in tho vil
lage of Verves, (where Victor Hugo
learned history) in tho province of
Seine-et-Oise. In 1842 he was sent to
tho galleys for lifo for killing a priest
who seduced his wife, pardoned in
1702, for displaying great heroism
during the prevalence of cholera in
1859. After his pardon he went to
Persia, and made a great fortune us
a phvslean. A few years ago lie re
turned to his native village, and
spent the remainder of liis days in
amusing himself with children, of
whom ho was very fond, and exhibit
ing his old convict dress to visitors.
He had no lack of admirers during
his residence in France, for the
French worshsip their heroes, especi
ally when they arc rich and power
ful.
While New England manufacturers
complain that they are making no
money, Columbus, Ga., is increasing
in prosperity and is soon to have a
bagging factory and n hrooni factory
added by Northern capitalists to it's
already numerous industries.—New
York Sun.
The above, from the New York Sun,
shows howtbe advantages of our city
are becoming known in tho North.
The Times will lose no opportunity
to induce Northern men and Europe
ans to cast their lot with us.
Immigration was much larger after
1870 than before. The net immigra
tion into tne United States for the
ten years ending June 80th 1875, was
8.378,657 and for the five fiscal years,
1861 to 1895 inclusive, only 709,458, or
less than half tho rate for the lust
ten years; and for the ten years end
ing with iB6O the arrivals were 2,568,-
214. The present population of tho
country is estimated at over 45,000,000,
with 54,000,000 in 1880.
Tlir latte Elections.
Tho dispatches received from the j
Northern States concerning tho elec
tions are anything but encouraging.
With the exception of Mississippi
they show Republican gains in all of
the States. Even Maryland, which
lius always been Democratic, was
so hard pressed that she could only
squeeze out a majority in favor of
liberty and peace. New York, tho
citadel of Democracy, has lost thou
sands of votes, and while it is unde
termined, ut tlio hour of writing,
whether she Is Democratic or Radi
cal, the very uncertainty argues Re
publican gains. Massachusetts,
which last election elected a Demo
cratic Governor, now shows a decided
Radical gain, though it is a dose
election; but “close don’t count,”
and will do us but little good. Penn
sylvania is Radical to the backbone,
while poor Virginia barely escapes
t he Infliction of Radical rulers.
The election returns do not hear
out the assertions that a better state
of feeling exists in tho North toward
tho South; for, after all, it is an ex
pression for Grant for a third term,
which means a renewed hostility to
tho South. If we are wrong in this
conclusion, then it is a conclusive ar
gument in favor of contraction, and
shows the unwise action of our party
leaders in dragging tho currency
question into the contest. Either of
these two things has contributed to
our defeat, aided by the wild fanati
cism and superstition the Radical
party lias used on a portion of the
voting population. At any rate, we
have lost, even if it turns out that wo
have won in those States in which wo
expected a victory.
Tho people of tlie South have
watched with unusual anxiety tho re
sult of these elections, and, of course,
feel vory*much discouraged at tho re
sult. As wo now have no voice in tho
National Councils, by ull means let:
us preserve our local and State gov- 1
ernmonts free from Radical rule. Wo
have once suffered ; now lot us profit
by our experience. We hope another
day will bring more encouraging
nows, hut we are afraid it is n vain
hope.

History ol Pfnnsylrailla'N InlrriiHl
liiilirOYCiiicnlH.
From tho New York Sun wo gather
tho following facts;
Costof internal improvements from
1820 to 1853 amounted to $35,099,083.91,
and embraced 629 miles of canals and
112 miles of railroads. The branch
canals had n total length of 344 miles
and a total cost of $10,985,569.01.
The increase in the value of taxa
ble property by t lio development of j
tho natural resources of the State,
more than equalled tho costof the
public works. Receipts from tolls on
all the lines had steadily increased
until, in 1856, they amounted to over
$2,000,000; and tho average income
from 1813 to 1856 was $1,609,768.13.
Since 1850 the people had favored the i
proposition to sell the public works
and apply the proceeds to the reduc
tion of tho debt.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany was incorporated in 1846. This j
corporation became a great power
from tlio date of its organization in
controlling tho legislation and direct
ing the public opinion of the State.
A systematic effort, was made todo
preciute the value of the public im
provements, and tlie press of both
parties was, with hero ami there a
few honorable exceptions, employed
to forward this gigantic scheme to
plunder the State. On every sido was
heard tho cry, “The whole canal sys
tem is rotten.” But nowhere in the
State was there a journal or a public
man to he found that proposed to
purify the management of the public
works by a determined and vigorous
raid on the plunderers. There was
but. one remedy advocated —and that
was to sell the canals and railroads
owned by the State; or, if that could
not tie done, to give them away.
A Lesson l roin Italy.
It is painful for Americans to bo
obliged to accept a lesson ill pblie
duty from Italy. But the absolute
impunity with which one after anoth
er high official of the Administration
at Washington has been allowed to
creep off with a Presidential certifi
cate of good conduct and “unabated
personal esteem,” from charges
threatening not his character only
but his personal liberty if fairly
pushed homo and proved, gives
piquancy and point on this side of
the water, to the vigor with which
the Italian Oovormnent is now pro
ceeding against ft personage of exalt
ed rank in that realm. The Duke of
Satriano, an Italian nobleman and a
Senator of the kingdom, having be
come implicated in certain charges
of a financial nature, his arrest was
ordered by the High Court of Justice.
An oftieerof tiieltalian Gendarmerie,
with two sergeants, all in civil dress,
went at once from Rome to Naples,
and presented themselves at the
ducal palace. When tho Duke re
ceived them they made their errand
known with all the politeness prop
er to he observed toward so eminent
a culprit. Tho Duke simply asked to
see their warrant; sent ills servant to
prepare a change of clothing ami
a traveling-back, and returned with
his captors to the capital. There ho
was at once conveyed to tlie Castle
of St. Angelo and locked up in the
apartments occupied during and af
ter tho dreadful seige of Rome under
tho Constable of Bourbon, by Pope
ClementVll. 11l these apartments,
as readers of Benvenuto Cellini’s ex
traordinary story of his own life will
remember, that most accomplished
artist and assassin went through the
whole gamut of avarice, rage, ambi
tion, despair ami delight, in liis suc
cessive interviews with liis Papal em
ployer. the most appreciative but at
the same time the most exacting of
patrons. Tho proceedings of Govern
or Tilden in the matter of the Canal
Ring give us, it is true, some reason
to iiopo that tlio day may finally
come, even at Washington, when
Secretaries and Senators of the baser
sort will he dealt with as manfully bv
the American as this distinguished
Neapolitan dignitarv has now been
handled by tlie Italian Government.
But while Delano goes about making
speeches in favor of financial hon
esty in Ohio, it tries one’s patience
to read of the Duke of Satriano
caged within the old Mausoleum of
Hadrian!—New York Herald.

PIHUC OPINION.
The lag baby is odious, and is
speedily to bo buried out of sight.
Ohio has furnished tho corpso, Penn
sylvania will provide tho grave, and
New York the tombstone.—Cincin
nati Commercial find.)
Any increase of Government irre
deemable paper beyond the limit
pledged when tho war debt was con
tracted is Inflation. It is a sanction
of tho policy nnd an invitation to all
the consequences of limitless infla
tion.—Davenport (Iowa) Gazette
(Rep.)
Every good citizen who desires tlie
continued ascendency of the Repub
lican party, yet who knows that it
depends upon changed party coun
sels, must regard the appointment of
Mr. Chandler to bo {Secretary of the
Interior as a grave public misfortune.
—Harper,s Weekly (Adm. Rep.)
The extent to which tho question of
honest currency lias wiped out ail
other issues may bo judged by the
language held by Edward Atkinson
in a recent speech ut a Republican
meeting. Mr. Atkinson has been,
perhaps, tlio most vehement, if not
tlie most fanatical, opponent of the
protective tarilT. He lias boon con
spicuous of late years in most public
movements for Free Trade or Reve
nue Reform, and is one of thelrabiost
men. Now ho says: “But is there
not the tariff question, one may ask.
Yes, gentlemen, but the reform of the
revenue system will follow, and can
not precede, the establishment of
good money. A bad system of taxa
tion works harm, hut it is nothing
compared to bad money, and when
the specie standard Is restored 1
doubt not the revenue system can he
rightly settled. To-day l will uoite
with the most vehement advocate of
a high tariff in tho contest for hard
money. There is now but one ques
tion, and on thut let the issue be join
ed.”
Nothing is clearer to tho unbiased
political observer than that the elec
tion of Hayes is not a Republican vic
tory, nor a Democratic defeat. N. Y.
World.
Tho result is full of meaning. Hus
the Administration of President
Grant or tlio Republican party done
anything since lust year to commend
either of them to public confidence
or popular support? Not one tiling.
So far as they are concerned the situ
ation is unchanged, except that they
have stood hack and let their oppon
ents make their own fight and t heir
own destruction. N. Y. Tribune,
(iuv. IllKtcr's Warning.
In his annual message in 1853 the
Governor warned the people against
tlio foolish practice of depreciating
the value of their own property. He
showed them that the net reciepts in
1852 and 1853 were equal to tho annu
al interest upon $15,000,000 of the
State debt. His advice was not heed
ed. The railroad lobby was omnipo
tent. A joint resolution was passed
in 1854 directing llie Governor to ad
vertise the main lino of public works
and sell the same to the highest bid
der :
“Again Gov. Bigler lifted his warn- :
ing voice, and admouisiied t he people j
that neither justice, equity nor com- j
mon sense could sanction the repeal
of the tonnage tax, but with little if
any effect, for two years later, the
main line of pulie works was sold to ;
the Pennsylvania Railroad for the in
adequate price of $7,500,000, witli the j
privilege of commuting the tonnage j
tax by the payment of $1,500,000
more. This last provision of the act i
was, however, declared uneonstitu-!
tional by tlie Supreme Court of the
State, and it was not until 1862 that
this monstrous swindle upon the peo
ple was finally perpetrated.
the loss to the state.
During years from 1860 to 1857, the
averge annual net revenue from the
branch canals, exclusiveof the North
Branch from Plttson to tho State
1 iile, was $409,110. The development
of the coal trade with western New
York through this channel, together
with tlio natural growth of business
on the ot her lines, certainly would
have sw oiled tlie average yearly re
ceipts from the branch canals during
the eighteen years succeeding their
sale to fully $750,000.
Assuming thut theso are safe esti
mates- and uobody cognizant, of the
facts will dare deny them—tho reve
nues which would have accrued to
the State from these three sources
may be summarized ns follows :
Receipts from Philadelphia wild Colum
bia Railroad. 1857 to 1&76, averaging
SOOO,OOO per Biiumn $10,800,000
Receipts from tho tonnage tax from
1857 to 1875, averaging $500,000 per
annum 0,000,000
Receipts from branch chuhlh from 1857
to 1875. averaging $750,000 per an
num 1.1,500,(HR)
Total $03,000,000
The public works were sold in 1857
and 1858 for $9,000,000, hut $3,500,000
of this sum did not, according to the
terms of sale, draw interest till 1872;
therefore, the net return to tho State
from this source during eighteen
years lias been only $4,275,000.
The net loss to the Commonwealth
by this operation can lie summarized
thus:
Receipt* which should have accrued
from tlio Philadelphia aud Columbia
Railroad, tho brunch canals, aud
tonnage tax for 18 year* $113,390,000
lute rest on bonds received to secure
the purchase money of tho public
works during tune period as above
shown 4.275,000
Net loss to tin* State $20,0*25,000
THE PLUNDERED STATE.
But this is not all. From Dec. 1,
I iB6O, to Nov. 30, 1874, tho otlicial re
! ports of the State Treasuershow that
there were received from sources of
revenue set aside and designated for
! the sinking fund by the Constitution
| and laws of tho State, the vast sum of
$35,524,861! Not one dollar of this
| money could bo applied to any other
purpose than the payment of the
principal and interest of the public
debt, without a plain violation of law.
If it was used in any other way, or
for any other purpose, it was simply
a robberv of the people. Now, the
reports of the Sinking Fund Commis
sioners show that during this period
there has been paid 011 account of
interest aud principal of tho debt,
only $29,307,885, so that $0,206,876, the
| difference between tlie amount re-
I ceived for this purpose and the
; amount disbursed, Inis been misap
j preprinted or stolen,
j Thus in eighteen years and leav
-1 ing out the war times in one part of
the calculation—the people of Penn
: sylvania have been plundered of the
! vast sum of $35,231,870!
