iu turu badly beateu by the policemen.
<iuite a fight occurred between a party of
negroes and the whites who assembled, hut
no one was seriously hurt. When some of
the whites procured fire-arms the negroes
scattered.
—The Savannah News, noticing the “inde
pendent” candidacy for Governor of Hon.
Janies Johnson, says: “While there should
be no cause of apprehension from Mr. John
son's semiiomihatiori, it is perhaps fortu
nate that he did not longer delay the an
nouncement of his Gubernatorial aspira
tion* It may serve as a warning to the
marplots of the Democracy to cease their
personal bickerings, their incessant pranc
ing out of new candidates, and induce them
to wait the calm, sober judgment of the
people in the matter of nominating the next
Governot of Georgia.”

“MU TRAJJT.V
Tne Now York Horald 1 , coni plains
of th<ji;r<)ttt disparity of
into anti exports from Cuba, Attributes
tho cause to the high (Spanish duties,
and Insists that our Government
ought to compel Spain to throw open
tho commerce of the island to us. It
state* tho amount of our trade, with
Cuba for the last few yeurs, as fol
lows: "In 1871 wo imported from
Cuba tho value of $58,240,584, and ex
ported to Cuba the value of $14,200,-
400. In 18720ur imports were $07,720,-
205, and exports, $13,108,966. In 1873,
Imports, $77,305,740; exports, $15,231,-
039. In 1874, imports, $86,272,466; ex
ports, $19,597,080. For the eurront
year, ending .Tune 30,1875, the im
ports were $00,745,527; the exports
$15,580,658.”
Free Trade, when the term means
low or revenue duties, is a good,
tiling. But this, like overy other in
ternational regulation, should be mu
tual, Those who preach free trade
should practice free trade. Our Gov
ernment imposes as high duties on
the wines, raisins and textilo and
other manufactures of Spain, as iSpaln
imposes on the goods which we could
sell iu Cuba. Indeed the United
States is about the last Government
that ought to complain of prohibitory
duties. The importation into Cuba
of goods or products from this coun
try equal to th(f amount of our ex
ports from that island, would doubt
less be a great general benefit to the
peoplo of tho United States, but our
protractivo tariff system stands in
the way, because Spuin will not lower
her duties without a compensating
reduction by nations trading with
her. Why, then, is not this general
benefit secured to tho people of the
United States ? (Simply because the
interest of a few Northern manufac
turers calls for high protective duties
on foreign fabrics competing with
their own—that being the obstacle to
(Spaiu’s “throwing open the com
merce of tho island to us.”
If it could be shown that a greater
revenue is derived by tho United
States from its present high protec
tive duties than it would obtain from
thoso levied with a view to revenue
only, tho need of money with whLh
to pay interest on tho public debt
might justify adherence to tho pro
tective system even at the expense of
tliopeopio. But this is by no means
dear or reasonable. On the contrary,
it is demonstrable tlmt we would de
rive more rovenuo on importations
from Cuba amounting to $75,000,000
in vulue, with a 20 per oont. ad valo
rem. tux, than wo now derive from
$18,000,000 of importations with a 40
per cent, tax; and the consuming
people of this oountry would at the
same timo reap tho benefit of a re
duction to the uraount of 20 per cent,
in the prlco of goods which they im
port from Cubu.
Tho one way sure, by which our
Government may secure a larger and
freer trade with Spain and Cuba is
by reciprocal low revenue duties.
Bet, us offer to admit into the United
States tho tobacco, cigars, fruits and
sugar of Cuba, and the wines, liquors
and manufactures of Spain, at 15 or
20 per oont. ad valorem, in considera
tion of Spain admitting into Cuba
the products and manufactures of
tho United States at the same rates
of duty, and then we shall see
whether the imports and exports of
our trade with Cubu do not more
nearly balance. Should Spain refuse
a proposition so reciprocal und Lair,
we will then have a bottor pretext for
demanding tho reason why.
The San Francisco Chronicle has a
long account of tho group of islands
known as tho Four Kingdoms, or
Lower Society islands, in tho South
Sea, and of some important social
and political events that have lately
occurred there. It states that Mr.
Atwater, tho American consul to
those islands, has married tho native
priueoss Mootia, und since tho mar
ring o ho and the princess have been
active iu arranging for an Ameri
can protectorate over tho group.
Atwater is said to be a pet at Wash
ington, and a fuvorito of Gon. Grant,
like Steiuborger, and it is believed
that he has similar designs.
The St. Louis Globe-Democrat, ever
witty in its criticism if not always correct,
says Unit Senator McDonald, of Indiana,
stands firmly by the theory Unit the Fed
eral Government luis no powers except
such as it derived from the several States.
This is a very good theory, and was a fact
ninety years ago; but the present genera
tion is inclined to boJiovo tiiat, as a matter
of fact, tho Federal Government, never de
rive! any powers from the State of Indi
ana, but Unit tho State of Indiana, ou the
contrary, came into existence only through
the act of tho Federal Government.
lExohange.
Mistake. Tho State of Virginia
gave tho territory of Indiana to the
Federal Government, and the under
standing, either express or by neces
sary implication, was that it should
bo admitted as an equal State of tho
Union. Virginia, a State covoroign
herself in nil but her delegated pow
ers, is tho mother of Indiana and a
number of other States possessing
precisely tho same relation to the
Union.
s
The Washington correspondent of
the Indianapolis Journal states that
Senator Morton is collecting a vol
uminous amount ofi evidence with
which to prove that Mississippi is in
a lawless and dangerous condition
and should bo reconstructed, etc. As
usual, the writers of the letters which
give Morton the “facts” beg him not
to reveal their names, “ns such reve
lation would bo certain to place their
lives in peril.” If Senator Morton
produces these letters when ho opens
bis outrage mill in the Senate, he
should be required to furnish the
name and address of each of his
Mississippi correspondents. That
would doubtless bring about an inter
esting revelation of fraud and lying.
Morton, however, .is still crazy
enough to believe that ho can “star
tle the whole country” by resuming
the old story of terrorism.”—Louie
ville Courier. >

Tito following letter, remonstrating
Against tho appointment of McDon
ald as Supervisor of Internal llevo
nue, ought to have prevented that
unfortußatei not. The signers were
all Republicans, and all but one
United States officials, nnd it will be
seen that they distinctly told Secre
tary Boutwell that McDonald would,
in their opinion, ro-establish just
such rings or combinations as he has
been convicted for establishing.
Taken in connection with tho strange
forbearance of Washington officials
towards McDonald after he had com
menced his swindling operations, if
not connivance at his conduct,
this letter must be very damaging to
persons high in authority:

The Hon. George ~S. Boutwell, Secretary of
the Treasury, Wanhinylon, D. <J.
Bib; We have to-day learned bv tho
telegrams of our daily papers, that,John
McDonald, of this place, has been ap
pointed Supervisor of Internal Revenue,
un assigned duty to this district.
Wo beg leave to assure you that the rep
utation of this man and fils associates are
snch that ho can bring no moral support
to tbe Government in tho enforcement of
ttie Internal Revenue laws, und that It is
quite certain that his qualifications, na
tural or acquired, arc such ils render the
appointment an unfit one to be made.
Wo believe that by his being placed in so
Important an office, the collections of the
revenue will bo retarded, and the combi
nations which have heretofore existed
against the Government wifi be re-estab
lished.

THE TREASURY SUITS.
WHAT MADAME BIJMOB BE FORTH CON
CERNING THEM.
We are apprised by what appoar to
be reliable rumors, tiiat the ue.tion to
be taken by the Governor in tho mat
ter of the unsettled accounts of ex-
Treasurer Jones will not be deferred
beyond the coming week, at farthest.
The amount claimed upon the suits
to bo instituted at this timo we un
derstand to be $110,000; but whether
this is tho maximum amount consid
ered to be duo from Capt. .Tones, we
are unable from present information
to state. The best impression, how
ever, is that tills amount is exclusive
of the $150,000 of bonds which it is
alleged have boon twice paid.
The parties sued will be Captain
.Tones and all the sureties whose
names are subscribed to the two offi
cial bonds given by hitn and now on
file in tho Executive office. Upon tho
iirst of these are the names of John
Jones, John T. Grant and C. A. Nut
ting; and upon the second are the
names of John Jones, John A. Jones,
Seaborn Jones, Batt Jones, A. K.
Jones, James D. Waddell, James M.
RussMl, and Henry L. Befitting [since
deceased.] Each bond is for the sum
of $200,000.
The report Is that the Governor has
determined, with advice of counsel, to
begin these suits In tho counties of
Bibb and Cobb. The suit upon the
first bond will be brought in Bibb
county, iu which is the residence of
O. A. Nutting, one of the sureties.
Tlte suit upon the second will be
brought in Cobb county, where Jus.
1). Waddell, one of tho sureties upon
it, resides. Both suits will claim tho
same amount of $110,out). And only
that amount could do collected l'f
judgments were secured in both cases.
It is supposed that the bringiug of
thoso suits in tho above counties will
efieetuully remove them from the sur
roundings and influence of local pre
judices nnd conduce to their just de
termination. Asa further explana
tion, the State can elect where she
will place her proceedings, so that
they will be iti a county where one of
tho sureties resides, and tho other
parties inay be joined as defendants,
although Don-residents of the county
where the suit is brought.
It is said that Attornoy General
Hammond in the prosecution of those
suits, will bo assisted by Gen. Robert
Toombs nnd Messrs. MoCuy &Trippe
for the State. This is a strong team
and will provo tough to handle.
The counsel employed thus far to
represent the defendants are Judge
O. A. Lochrano and B. 11. Hill Sc Son.
Other local counsel at Macon und
Marietta may be joined in the defense.
It is stated that Judge Lochrano yes
terday secured his fee of $2,500 in tho
cases, and it is believed that a like
sum was paid in to Messrs. Hill &
Son.
The litigation promises to be hoavy
and the case will doubtless develop
into a cause celebre in the legal aunals
of the State.—Atlanta Constitution,

N Tax on Tea and Coffee.
The Washington correspondent of
the New York Bulletin says:
There is quite an effort among strong
manipulators around Congress to secure a
duty on Um and coffee, and, failing in that,
to get it on toa alone. Rut the test of
making the receipts meet tho expendi
tures it. ttie Government has boon decided
by a determination to level the expendi
tures down to the ordinary receipts, and
to adjust the tariff on the basis upon which
it now stands, with more oquitablo provi
sions. The Republicans, in majority, as
protectionists, oppose a duty on tea and
coffoe, while the Democrats say they will
not assume tho responsibility of Its roim
posltion. I believe that a two-thirds ma
jority of the House, without regard to par
ty, are against it, and while the Senate
Committee favors it, the Senate lias a largo
working majority against it.
Pork Parkluse.
The Cincinnati Price Current, of the 236
inst M says:
Notwithstanding the fact that there hay
been several day ft of quite warm weather
the movement of hogs to ma. ket in the West
during the past week lias aggregated a iaiily
liberal number, and shows a considerable
increase over co.jespooding week last year.
The information which we hefte, indicating
the packing at the six leading cities, shows
that the deficiency as compaied with same
date last year has been reduced from 595,-
000 two weeks ago, and 560,000 one week
ago. to 440,000 at this da f e.
From interior points we have returns this
week Bom places ivhuh packed *ast year
1,135,857 ot a total of 2 065,415 at all inte
rior points. The packing to dates of these
report, al! within five days past, aygrega'.es
475,404* against 7$6 V 455 to same dates last
season a falling off*of 311,051. Shou'd the
same relation exist ior the other points, the
deficiency now at all interior points would
reach about 560,000. indicating that while,
the six cities have been gaining during the
past two weeks, as compared with the same
period last. Year, the interior points have ap
parently fatten equally as much behind,
which, i correct, would make the aggregate
packing in the West during the same time
to have been about the same as in the cor
responding time last year. To carry out
the calculation in the same proportion, the
packing in the West would now appear to
be about 2.600.000, against about 3,600,000
to the same date last year. This may or
may not be approximately correct.
