THE WORLD MOVES.

It gives US pleasure to bo able to oongrst-
ulste our readers that we are able TO sn.
nounce, elsewhere in to-day's REPUBLICAN,
the abandonment Of several Of the relies Of
the rebellion-the vacation and closing up Of
the Old Capitol PRISON. tho dismissal of all
prisoners upjustly held; the surrender Of
others to the civil authorities for trial, pre-
paratOry to the early restoration Of the writ
Of habcds corpus, and the removal Of others
military or State prisoners-to Fort Whip
pie, Va, and the immediate reduction TO the
end that it G totally abolished, Of the special
government detective force, about which
there has Of late been so much just cause of
complaint. Espionage should fall with the
rebellion, especially in a country like this,
and particularly whom those under whose
surveillance 1t is organised are prosecuted,
forget their duty and use It for their own sell
fsh, pecuniary, or political purposes without
regard to the public good.

some southern scntiments.

The Montgomery, Ala, Mail WAKES ex-
ceedingly wroth over Gov. PARsoN's very
sensible message to the Legislature. 1t says ::
We have no room now to express an
opinion Of his message in detail we will
do this on another occasion; for the
present, We forbear. We are not, never have
been, nor do We desire to be recognized as
friend to the local administration of Alabama.
The questions which Gov. Parsons pro-
pounded to those of our people who applied
for PARDON, 1--WE never have and never will
under any oircnRaSfaRees,) were such Us to
disgust any Southern man, and we could not
have replied to them, to have saved our
souls from HELL. In few words, we call on
all Southern men to MroV him of as Sena-
Tor from Alabama. He is not representa-
nvG Of Southern feeling IN this great matter
Of yielding 10 Northern opinion. The Legis.
lature of Alabama may elect him to be Sen
ator from this State, from pure meanness of
spirit.
TX another dispatch it discusses the pres
ence of the United States troops thus:
We think 1t would be a somewhat difficult
task to assign sensible and concise reason
why Federal troops are still retained in the
South. Not a man is in rebellion here, nor
is there single organized armed force in
existence in opposition to the authority of
the Government.
It will be necessary to keep troops in Ala
bama as long as such talk as that of the
Ledger Is common.

TEE story which follows is going the rounds
as spropos to the pardon-seeking business.
But as most Of the pardon.seekers are old
soakers, we doubt II the experiment Is worth
trying:
"In q Baptist church In the western part Of
Conneetieut, during revival, q man became
subject Of the awakening and was anxious TO
Join said church, but his antecedents had been
such that the members hesitated about admitting
him. They finally ooncluded that each member
should give his vote and his reasons for against
his admittanee. They all gave their votes one
way or the other, until Caesar, an honest old Gull
nes negro, being called, remarked: "He say he
be good man, he say he be converted, he say he
heart, and we 'spose Il must b, so, and we must
admit him, but guess we had better put him q
soak over night.
A SINGULAR murder was committed nj
shelbyville, Illinois, on Wednesday last. On
the afternoon Of that day, Thomas NJ. Thorn.
ton, jr., Of the firm of W. +. Thornton a
Sons, bankers, walked into the clothing store
Of Max Deeman and deliberately shot, with
out any warning Lieutenant George Tsckett,
who was reading newspaper at the time.
Tackett rose from his chair and staggered
toward the door, when Thornton shot him
again, the ball entering his shoulder. Tack
EFT then ran out of the door into tho street,
followed by Thornton, who again shot him in
the small Of the back. This shot brought
Tsckett to the ground, and Thornton then
walked up to the dying man and placed his
revolver to his head and shot him again, the
ball passing completely through his head.
Thornton then walked to his banking house,
mounted horse, and fed. Nothing has been
heard Of him since. Tackett expired in
few hours. A number Of persons wero wit
nesses Of the affair from the commencement
Of the shooting, but made no effort TO inter-
fere. It is stated that an old grudge existed
between Thornton and Tackett, and growing
out Of the latter's real or supposed familiari-
ties with Thornton's wife, but it was parti-
ally settled by Tsckott agreeing to leave the
place and not return. About two months
since Tackett returned to Shelbyville, ex-
pressing desire to go into business, and the
tragedy recounted was the result.

TO OUR sUBsoRIBERs,

From and after the first day of December
the price Of the DAILY NATIONAL REPuBLI-
CAN, delivered at the residences Of subscrib-
ers, will be ten cents per week, or forty-hye
cents per month.
In consequence Of the great drought which
has prevailed for months past in the middle
and northern States, the paper mills, worked
by water power in those States, have fur
nished but little paper, and some have
stopped altogether, making it impossible for
those worked by steam power to supply the
demand. Much paper has consequently been
imported at heavy cost.
In consequence of this fact the price Of
paper has increased, since we reduced the
price Of the REPUBLICAN in July last, over
fffy per cent, We are therefore compelled
to increase the price to meet this unprece,
dented rise in the price Of paper, but hope
that it will be only temporary, and that we
shall be able to resume the old prices in a
short time.

From Hayti we learn, via Kingston, that
Cape Haytien has been bombarded by two
British war steamers, the city reduced to
ashes, and the forts destroyed.
The troops Of Geffrard are In possession Of

The Alabama Senators.

The most encouraging sign that any
Southern State has yet given, we take to be
the election Of GEo. s. HoUsros and LEWIS
E PARSONS to the United States Senate for
Alabama. Mr.. HoUsros was Union man
in 1861, and we believe he mover took any
part in rebel politics. We heard occasionally,
all through the four years of the war, of his
speaking his mind with much freedom upon
the iniquity Of secession. From the pug
naoity of his nature we make no doubt he is
now n radical.
As for Gov. Parsons, his position is clear
These manly words from his message to the
Legislature mark him as the man for the
hour:
The people Of alabama an convention as

CHOLERA AQUARANrISE.-Ths United States
Consul General at Constantinople, under
date of November 2, sends dispatch to the
Department Of State to the effect that all
vessels hereafter coming to that port from
parts of the Black Sea must stop at Buyak.
dsre, or Kavsh, places about twelve miles
distant from Constantinople, and must have
their bills of health examined at the health
office at one of those places. Vessels having
clean bills of health will be permitted to sail
down the Bosphorus and continue their voy-
age after having their bills Of health verified

THE CHOLERA.

At q meeting Of the New York Health
Commissioners, held on Tuesday, some in
teresting facts were ELECTED on the discussion
of tho oil important subject to our large
cities Of the Asiatic cholera. A communica-
tiOn from DR.. MARsDES, Of Quebec, embrac-
ing plan for keeping out cholera by quar-
antine, was presented and received with
favor by the board. DIR. MARspEN, who was
formerly president Of the College Of Physi.
clans and Surgeons, Lower Canada, lays
down these propositions
controllable disease.
Sscond-That its cause is not in the atmos-
phere, nor communicable through it except
by near approach.
THird-That it accompanies human travel
and human traffic.
FoHrth-That it progresses only at the
rate Of vessels across the ocean, but never
precedes them.
FI7h-That it Is transmissible by cloth.
ing and effects as well as passengers.
Sirth-Thst 1t never appears in a new To-
cality without communication, directly or in
Serenth-That il may be arrested, like
the plague, by an absolute quarantine of
short duration.
These propositions, laid down by Dr.
MARsDES, agree with those submitted by
ALEXANDER MoREAU DE JoSSEs, in 1881,
in report made to the Conseil Superior de
Sante, in Paris, on pestilential cholera; and
1t appears also from the reports Of Surgeon
TRIPLER, of the United States army, that he
had been able to control cholera by quaran-
tine.
DR.. sAYRE, who took 4 leading part in the
discussion at the meeting of the Health Com
missioners of New York, although insisting
upon the enforcement of a rigid quarantine,
also recognized the necessity Of sanitary reg
ulation, house-inspecting, domestic instruc.
ton in diet, clothing, and cleanliness, clean
streets, and proper sewerage. He also CON
troverted the idea that there is no danger to
be apprehended from cholera in the winter
season, citing the fact that It had prevailed
in Russia during the coolest weather.
We do not know how far we can use the
controlling power of quarantine in repelling
the disease, but it is certain that our citizens
should regard sanitary measures of the very
first Importance, for If the quarantine in our
sea coast towns should fail to keep the dis.
ease out Of the country altogether, II will
travel wherever passengers are allowed to go,
and where the most inviting field for its raw
ages are found, 1t will there be most de.
structive.
1t is highly desirable that our Commis.
'ioners of Health should prepare circular Of
domestic instructions with reference to
cholera. Hundreds Of families would adopt
the necessary sanitary measures if they
knew how, who will neglect them If left in
Ignorance. We hope at the next meeting of
the City Council action will be had author
iring and directing the preparation of such
circular and providing for its free distribu-
tion in every family in the city, and also for
its being advertised in the city papers until
the danger of n cholera visitation has passed
by.
