Enoch had been absent with out being accounted for during a pe riod of thirty-five years; had fought into tho Mexican war; had dug gold with the Forty-miners; had bearded tho tiger in many a den, and llnully returned to his old home at Louisvlil to find his old wife still without a husband. ——* . . Cox,. D. R. Anthony, the Kansas editor who was shot in the breast with a pistol some months ago, lias been not only rescued from a prema ture grave by his surgeons, hut so 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. • ♦ - OiiKlit (lie Mate Komi to l><- Nolil ?- .i 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. lilt urn: lIiUtSLLU MoILNLUx, NOVEMBER 4, 15f6. 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!
