NEW SOUTHERN CONFIDENCE
GAME.


ceedingly "sweet" on Northern capitalists.
With charming candor and graceful condcs-
ccnsion, they acknowledge that the South
greatly needs an infusion Of Northern energy,
enterprise, industry aud money. We almost
feel indebted 10 them at times for the polite
ness With which they discuss and acknowledge
these points Of superiority on our part. We
arc cven tempted to expand on the advnn-
tages afforded By the Southern States for tho
profitable Investment Of Northern capital, and
to torecommcnd to our Northern fnanciers to aid
In the work Of covering the financial naked-
ness Of the South, even though We approach
The subject rs We have already SO often done,
walking backwards and Witheyes revert1tial-
lr aycrted, so rs not to see the real merits OF
the Investment. But no sooner do VIC thus re-
ciprocate the Southern "sweetuess" than
some new proof is thrust upon us that for all
The absence Of capital at the South.
there always has been and still Is tho
ali sufficient md incxorAble reason that
II falls to pay there rs we'll as In the North,
und that all attempts to force capital out of
lis natural channels will prove disastrous fall
ures. A recent illustration Of this fact is found
in the experience Of the Northern subscribers
the great National Express scheme recently
concocted at Richmond. A knot of
reconstructed southerncrs who scnsib1y ap-
rrecinted the great need OF capital at
the South contrived u very Ingenious mode Of
introducing several millions from The North.
They propose q great National Express
Company, with q capital Of five millions.
Exactly what this great enterprise Is to
perform with its capital OF FIVE millions
tie world Is not informed, except that
It viii curry packages from place TO
place for hire, on railroad, steamboat and
stage lines which arc the property of other
people. For nught We or its subscribers
know, II may yet DIVE daily donkey Of its
own from Richmond to Petersburg, but this
would be expensive, and is therefore improb-
able But five millions having been agreed
upon Us the capital stock, the ruagnanlmity
CT the South Is shown by : concerted effort to
hare the entire stock taken in tho
North. An e1-rebel general Is sent
post haste to New York city, with
dispatches positively limiting the astuie
financIers Of Wall street to two millions.
Not another cent can they 1lare for affection
or erecnbacks. Philadelphia, Cincinnati, St.
Louis and other points are in Like manner
limited to their quotas, The agents en-
powered to receive subscriptions in each
place proceed sccrctl.s, stealthily like the En-
pcrnr Of France, with his mine Of diamonds,
In the Mont Gems tunnel. Only favored
few are permitted even to know Of The exist
ence Of the enterprise. The agents In each
city arc wholly ignorant Of what Is being
done In Gny other city. On given day, at a

Lake Disasters in 1865.

list furnished TO the Buffalo Commercial Ad-
uegfiSer by Captain Weber, General Inspector of
the Board OF Lake Underwriters, shows that l52
lives were lost on the lakes last year, and that
the total loss of property amounted to 81, 1885, 643
No list of disasters for 1864 was made up, and
we cannot show, therefore, how the losses of last
year will compare with those of the year pre-
vlous. In 1863 the lives lost were 1913, and the
loss of property ST. 4SO,434. In 1862, loss of life
l0S of property, 81 1872, ,l73. The total number OF
vessels in 1865 was l749 tonnage, 1895; in
1863 there were 1870 vessels, with 470,034 ton
mage.
Captain Weber says that large proportion OF
these disasters are caused by vessels going
mainly from culpable Ignorance of the planest
rules of navigation by the masters. There is un-
fortunately no law requiring them to pass an
examination, and, according to Captain Weber,

Of the habeas corpus writ in all Ireland The
Lord Lieutenant has notified the Government
that he can assume no responsibility FOR any dls-
turbances of the peace IN Ireland without such
suspension. Tue House OF Commons has rushed
through o bill for the suspension OF the writ
brought in by tie Government in one night by
364 votes against 6. The House OF Lords ex.
pressed its concurrence on the fame night, and
the royal assent was given 10 the bill on the day
following. The United Kingdom Is again
breathing more freely, and indulging the hope
that the final blow will soon be struck at those
formidable Fenians.
EThe events to which the alarm in England
during the last weeks appear TO be chiefly due,
are the discovery and seizure OF immense guam
Titles Of ammunition, and the rumored calling OF
a Fenian crusier from New York (the Cubd.)
AS regards the former, it seems that the manu-
factnre of arms and ammunition has been really
carried on in Dublin to q larger extent than any
one not initiated supposed TO be the case. The
report concerning the privateer is for the present
only false alarm; but 1t is interesting to show
what effect the appearance OF one, two, or half
dozen ALdbdm0s, sailing under Fenian colors,
would produce upon the nerves, as well as the
commerce of our English cousins.
They have, of course, long since become
unanimous in England as to the conviction that

Tinkering the Constitution.

FROM the WOTtd.
Some intelligent citizens OF Iowa, Justly uneasy
at every finger being thrust into the Constltu-
tlonal pie except their own, have pettioned for
an amendment of the Constitution, recognizing
the existence OF God and the divinity of Christ.
OF course Congress should have power in the
second clause ''to enforce this article by appro-
pirate legislation
The gratitude of the Deity at an Official ac-
acknowledgement of his existence by the United
States may be more easily imagined than de-
scribed; probably he would Immediately perform
some miracle ot,a very astounding character

fleas, bleach SamDo into the whiteneSs OF the

There is a very large class however. OF most
excellent citizens of the Hebrew race, intell-
gent industrious, obedlept to the laws, ire
proachable III Their domestic relations who still
pers ST IN not admitting the divinity OF Christ.
There are some very good Unltarians who in
dulge in the same pIeposterous perVerslty OF
thought. What is to be done with these people
under the proposed amendment?
They would be placed in the awkward diem
ma of honesty and dlsloyalty, or hypocrisy and
LOYALTY.
However, we must give the Iowa reformers
the benefit OF the admission that they are as
| logical and a good deal more consistent than
some Of their party associates. The leadins Re

No one affects to doubt that the men who joy
fully anticipated the veto Of the Freedmen's

Andrew johnson when he made his 22d OF Feb

his election to the Presidency, and Of his pre-

the candidate Of the Union party. In other
words, they were anti.coercion, anli-war Demo

TO foreshadow the future asoendaney In our
