Tbk New sPrieans Bulletin uy: Almost every ring organization for tin (.hinder of the Treasury has been moro or loss directly connected with the White House. jgj^ The Mayor oJf.New receives Kla.OOu per annum, or sl,ooo more tltau a member of the Cabinet; while the Comptroller receives #IO,OOO, as much as the Secretary of the Treas ury. _ The DomocmSc triumph in Missis sippi involves the cutting down of tho State printing bill from SIOO,OOO a year to $16,000, and Republloan newspapers in the country are very generally subtending. S*.ATOK FkBKV, of Michigan, the acting Vice-President of the United Statos, denies being an inflationist, but he thinks the Government should accept its own currency, even for the payment of eustoro duties, and doubts the wisdom of the re sumption act. —— Tax New Orleans Bulletin has this to say about Mnbeork: Qen. liab oock wants a Court of Inquiry. The Cabinet will consider the point, and perhaps will giant Gen. Babcock's modest request, Secretary Babcock will appoint the officers of the court, and the court will organize, and—ln quire. Gen. SputNEahas not lost any faith !u the 3.65 bond project. He wrote of it In a recent letter: “The scheme will prevail as soon as it shall be thorough understood. The bugbear Cries of 'iaflution,' ‘repudiation’ and *rag baby,’ have had their day. Next year’s election will be fought on this issue.” Personal. Wo wore pleased to see yesterday, Mr. Watt Harris, jr., a promising young lawyer of Catersville, and afeo Rev. Mr. Norris, of same plaoe, in our city. Dr. Jesse Banks has returned from New York on a visit to his relatives in this city. He looks well, cheerful and prosperous.^ Wk met a young planter yesterday who is out of debt. The result is thut he made this year two thousand bushels of oats on 150 acres, corn and meat enough, and twQlvo bales of cotton. He only employed two reg ular hands, hiring others when nec essary by the day. He has made money, and- has been annoyed very little. He says if he had hired eigh teen hands and planted his planta tion in cotton the place would have been very heavily involved in debt. Tin: Charleston Courier is severe Upon "InfeHce,” and its author, Mrs. Wilson. Hear the Courier: “Mrs. Wilson has appropriately named her novel ‘lnfelloe,’for It is superlatively infelicitous in every respect. While some of her faults appear in a modi fied form, other peeullidities ttihtjlg foil themselves more obstrusivaljf than over. The amount of erudition displayed is not overpowering, jt is thinner, more commonplace, and con sequently more exasperating thhn usual.” , i'Sm niTfi itlf • Hew VofVrkktywS fresh lltedfifflbw that the public know who la at the bot tom of it. It Is generally believed that the character and great wealth of Mr. Samuel Wood leave no doubt that the scheme Is a substantial one. Mr. Wood’s wealth is estimated at between $3,000,000 and $7,000,000, and the greater part of this is to be used in the endowment of the new insti tution in Central Park, where the divine art can- be imparted free of charge to those who have morn tal ent than worthy. jt. ..I „ I Couldn't Penult him u> fcnmr*. One of the most eccentric clergy men of Scotland of the latter port of the last century was the Rev. Peter Glass, minister of Grail. His pulpit language was broad Scotch, and his expreswans, even in devotions, were liurticuluriy simple. Many of his pa rishioners being fishermen, he usu ally prayed specially for their wel fare. One day using the expression, “May the boats be tilled up with hor rin clear up to the tow holes” (.spuces for the oarsj a fisherman Instantly called out, “Na; no that far, sir, or w<t wud a’ be sunken.” A farmer in the parish had been In tho habit of sleeping much to Mr. Glass’ aanoy anoe. Mr. Glass approved him prlv ately, and the farmer excused himself on the ground of his arduous labors during the wek. He expressed hope that the minister would extend to him a tittle Indulgence adding that he would drive two cart loads of coal to the manse. Next annday the farmer not only slept, but gave very audible demonstrations of the fact. “Wauken ministered according to clerical re quest, David awakened suddenly, understood to be conferred for f ttoe twa cans.” “David.” said tho Min ister. “I micht hae winked at the sleepln’, but I oanna permit you to BBore.” SHI 11 qp. 1 of dp I’resi* dutff'ol eaeli ■hi Off!.. public :hylo,j)r jmil ne. TttwHax#’ tlon of church property we do not believe to be cither a wise or nec essary measure. When a people tain to wealth and luxury, as Is the casein thegreat cities of tiic United States, in no manner can they better exi*>|<l tft<4r ttfbqey than in building cathwUtifc; (diuiVmtes, and embellish ing the architecture. If an Income was derived from these aesthetic in vestments it would be proper to tax them. We were agreeably surprised at tho paciilc tone of the President’s message with regard to Cuba. He in timates, however, that circumstan ces may make it his duty ’’to make further communication to Congress at some period not far remote,” which alters tho pacific tone of this part of his message. His views OQg corning specie resumption are ttfosa 1 of tho Republican party, and this promises to overshadow all other issues in tho next campaign. The suggestion that all merchandise be excluded from tho mails is a reform much needed in tho postal service. Of the Indians, he says: “The meth od of treating the Indians, adopted at tho begihatog of my first term, has been steadily pursued, with satisfac tory and encouraging results.” In view of the disclosures made by Prof. Marsh and others, we do not think the country shows tho satisfaction expfbs(pti by the President. The treo*dlsntof tho Indians is a blot upon civilization. With regard to Utah and Poligamy, he is uncompromising in his hostili ty, and the people arc in sympathy with him on this subject. The wisest suggestion in the President’s message, we think, is that depriving "all persons who cannot read and write from becoming voters after the year I*9o. disfranchising none, how ever, on grounds of Illiteracy, who may be voters at the time this amend ment takes effect.” We of the South have already suffered enough by the law allowing ignorant negroes the privilege of tho ballot. In a country, nearly one half of whose voting jxip ulation aro illlierate, and more than one-fourth of whom are recently freed from slavery, the only safe guard is in limiting the suffrage to those who are capable of appreciating its responsibility and Importance. Pmldait James Buchanan’s Message, in isai, Endursed the project of building a Pacific Railroad by Government ui<| in land and money subsidies. All tho Northern papers, nearly, aro now clamoring for the Democrats to cling to Democratic traditions and oppose any subsidies whatever. It is notable that these same Northern journals were equally clamorous for Government aid as long as such aid was extended to Northern States and Territories. Ia the South a jstrt of the Union? While we do not approve of grunt ing aid to Tom Scott’s scheme be cause it is not intended to benefit the Southern States but by its very charter will bo enabled to deflect freights to St. Louis, and thus en rich the Pennsylvania Railroad Com pany, we do hope that Southern Congressmen will Stand by President Buchanan’s interpretation of the Co nstitution. Let them demand Gov ernment aid for the development of Southern interests. Let us have equal aid if we are to bear equal bur dens. tty ref*rence to an old 01s of the Columbus tpaxs, of December isib, lfiST, Wfl find President Buchanan’s message, in which he says of tho PACIFIC RAIL HOAD : Lobg experience has convinced mo that a strict construction of the pow ers granted to Congress is the only true, as the only safe, theory of the Constitution. Whilst this principle shall guide my public conduct. Icon mh&e&k a military road through the Territo ries of the United States, when this is absolutely neoessary for the de fense of any of the States against for eign Invasion. The Constitution lias conferred upon Congress power “to declare wur, “to raise and support armies,” “to provide and maintain a navy,” and "to call forth the militia to repel invasions.” These hlg sev ere igd jiftwers necessarily Involve Important and responsible publiodu ties, and among them there is none sion of a foreign enemy. The Con stitution has, therefore, left nothing on this point to con struction, but expressly requires that, “the United States shall protect each of them (the States uguinst in vasion.” Now, If military road over our own Territories be iudwpensublv necessary to enable us to meet and repel tile invader, it follows, as a necessary consequence, not only that we possess the |x>wr, but It Is our im perittve duty to construct such a road. It would be an absurdity to invest a Government with the unlimited pow er to make and conduct war. and at the samo time deny to it the only means of reaching and defeating the enemy at tho frontier. Without such a road It Is evident we cannot “protect” California and our Pacific possessions “against. Invasion.” We cannot by any other means transport men and munitions of war from the Atlantic States it) sufficient time suc cessfully to these remote and distant portions of the Republic. Experience has proved tnat the routes across the isthmus of Central America are aTOcst but a very uncer tain and unreliable mode of commu nication. But even if tjvis were not the case, they would at oue be closed against us in the event of war with a naval I’owerso much stronger than our own as to enable it to blockade the iKiris at either end of these routes. After all. therefore, we only rely oo a military rood through mreewn Ter ritories ; and ever since the origin of the Government Congress has been in the practice of appropriating mo r‘,r •*”' The difficulties and expense of con structing a military Railroad to con nect our Atlantic and Pacific States have bitch greatly exaggerated. The distanoo on lbe Arizona route, near the 33d parallel of north latitude, be twoen the western boundary of Texas on the Rio Grande, and the eastern boundary of California on tho Colifc rn.k>, from tt best explorations witnln our knowledge, does not exceed ll® miles, and the face of ‘the country is. in the main, favora- Sble. Fol obvious reasons, the Gov ern meat ought not to undertake the work itself, by means of its own agent*. This ought to be committed to other agencies, which Congress might assist, either by grants of Ignd or money, or by both, upon sbcli -term* as t hey may deem most benefi cial for the country. Provision might thus be made urn only for the sore, rapid, and economical transportation of troops and munitions of war, but also of the public mails. The com mercial interests of tltti.whcjtt.Coun and, above (Mi, ft (Voiifn be if |*>werful additional bond of union. And al though advantages of this kind, whether postal, commercial, or polit ical, cannot, confer, constitutional trailer, yet they may furnish auxilia ry arguments In favor of expediting a work which, in my jupgmeiit, is elearly embraced in the wur-making iiowcr. For those- rcmtonwl commend to the friefidly consideration of f*ngress (,ho subject ofJthS Pacific Railroad, without tlnully committing inyself t<s any particular route. (Communicated. **Tlr Only Way to Kimiiim’ In to Up mi me." No voters who lived inOeorgia In 1872, and who were attached to the great Democratic fiarty, can object to any utterance of the late Horace Greeley, eZMpt the four thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine, who at that period, and as a “forlorn hope,*” and alone for principle, cast their votes for Charles O’Conor for President—tho distinguished lawyer, of Now York, tho anticipated an nouncement of whose death may ap pear even in the issue of the paper which contains this article. But Horace Greeley was a great and a far-seeing man. Though he had never occupied a statesman’s posi tion, he was a statesman in fact. He was a thlnker-a deep thinker-and he looked to the beyopd J The 4,91)9 of this State, who of the Democratic party opposed him, recognized his ability, but would not accept him as a leader in democracy—he, its life time opponent, On the currency question Mr. Gree ley uttered the truism which heads this article; “The only way to resume specie iiayrnents is to resume.” To those who so ardently supiiorted him for President in ’72 the statement should bo oracular. Any way, stand ing as he was upon the threshold of two worlds, he conceived that the dark spirit of prophecy possessed him, and he uttered it. The resumption of specie payments by the Ist January, 1879, is an easy matter, if the faith of the Govern ment pledged to the fact, be not tam pered with Iry eithef- of the tvs6 great parties in whoso hands tho safety of the country rests. The Government is stable—at peace abroad and at home. All that tho holders of its securities want to know is, that they can get their money when they want it. Who, except a very few, want to be burthened with gold or silver, when they have the acknowledgment of a goyffnipwt firm as a roek ? A IneWeftt will MHHce to illus trate ; During the “pafi'tcof 1897,” in New Orleans, gs heavy runs were being made upon the hußka. Mens. T# Compte, an old Frenchman, had hbgdb lU& “Canal Bank.” When the excitement was at its height, be rushed with alarm to the hank with hts book und de manded his money. The officer com menced to count it out, handing over bag after bag of precious coin. The Frenchman astonished stared, and said: “By gar! you have him then? Weil, If you have him I do not want him.” CbnfldenetS was restored, and the money returned to its safe depos itory. Confidence is intact to-day with this great, and rich Government. “The only way to resume specie payments is to resume.” Notiee ubundunt notice—has been given, and it is as easy to do it at the time designated as to wait until a century shall have passed. The Savannah News, which is one of the most progressive papers in the South, says: The opinion is gaining ground that both ramie aud jutacau be extensive ly and successfully cultivated in the Southern States. The drawback to' this industry iu [last wars has been the trouble and expense attending the separation of thß fibre from the gummy substance ahd green cover ing of the plant. What little work of this kind has been done has been by hand, and as well as being a verv slow process R is quite ex]iensive. We leurn flow that this obstacle is soon to be overcome by the introduction of a machine, which, through the aetiou or certain acids, separates the fibre in a verv ucat manner and at a compar atively light expense. In India and China,‘o,which countries these plauts are indigenous, we are told the pro cess of separation is done entirely by hand, and at a cost of not les3 than $l5O per ton. The pateutee of the machine states thftt by the new process the cost of separating will be reduuqd to S3O [rar ton. Ramie is extensively used in manufacture of a fabric said to be a K'K&tVSSWa bility. It Is to be used considerably in dry goods made to intimate silk, on account of its resemblance to that fabric In many respects. In Califor nia about one thousand, two hundred iHMindsof fibre have been produced to tip- acre, and it is thought that it can be turned <Sut In e.pmtabundance in many portions of the South.
