JUDGE ARRESTED IN ALABAMA

The oafh on the b. Il. &c.

The police recently made a descent
on the Memphis Division of the Kuk-
lux Khan. About twenty of the plot
tiers were captured and marched to the
station house. Upon the person of
each prisoner was found a mark of
black cloth, with holes for eyes, but
concealing the rest of the face. On
the Presidents table, in their halls, one
human skull served for ornament. The
constitution of the Khan was found in
the pocket of one of those s~pprehended.
This document announces that the
object of the order is 'to protect the
South from the band of murderers now
preying on it, even to the last resort
assassination" The oath we give be-
low in full:
Here in the presence of this skull
and the members here assembled, l
solemnly swear to be true to the order,
to its members individually and collec-
lively, and should / ever, by sign, word
or deed, betrsy a secret, or a member
of the Brotherhood, that the skull upon
which l now look may be 8 counterpart
of mine, and l hope that all the social
relations which | now enjoy may be
sundered that honesty IN the men or
virtue in the females may not be known
in my family or generation, and that all
who hold my name shall be branded as
dogs and harlots. / further swear to
obey implicitly the orders of the Grand
Cyc.ops, regularly issued through the
Council, and as o as | receive an
order to fulfill it. l again swear that,
should q member of this order be in
danger, that, even at the risk of my
life, I will defend and endesyor to save
him. That l will give no outward sign
or hint that q person may know Of the
existence of the L. K. K, unless
authorized by the Grand Cyclops, and
that each member of this order, as soon
as the sign is given, ! will recognize,
defend and protect as a brother. /
further swear that l will, under and in
all circumstances, bear true allegiance
to the South and her interests, as in
terpreted by the Supreme C~yclopean
Council, and when | receive its orders,
should ! be sven in the embraces of my
wife, l will leave her to obey them. |
further swear that all Radicals and
negroes who have placed themselves
opposite to the interests of the owners
of the soil of Tennessee, shall forever
be my enemies, and that under no
circumstances will | have other con
nection with them, if 1 can help it,
than to welcome them with bloody
hands to hospitable graves" That my
family and the family of 8 Radical shall
never interchange visits. And l furth-
er pray that the God Of the Southland,
whom 1 now invoke, shall strike me
dead should / ever, either in letter or
spirit, infringe upon the things set
forth in this oath. To all of which 1
swear in honesty of heart and sincerity
of purpose. So help me God"

NRsoUkI.-The arabic land Of Mis-
souri amounts to thirty-fve millions of
acres out Of forty-three millions in the
state. The alluTiAl margins of the
rivers cover two millions of acres. and
the high rolling prairie twenty millions
more. The richness of the soil is with
out its superior on the globe, ranging
from two to six feet on the uplands,
and sometimes 8 fabulous depth on the
alluvials. Some farms, after bearing
some twenty-five successive crops, have
not shown any diminution of produc-

two crops can be gathered in one year.
Winter wheat or oats can be succeeded
by 8 crop of corn fodder or Hungarian

Of q great deal Of advantage to the

The New Orleans Pieayuns says that
the R&mie fibre is beginning to become
an article of trade at that port, and
that one merchant there. whose name
it gives. has received orders for it from
New York, and offers double the mar.
ket rateof cotton for all he can obtain.
IT adds that q demand for the fibre is
also springing up in the West, but that
no definite orders for it from that sec
ton have yet been received at New
Orleans. As . generous mention" of
the merits of Rsmie, the PieayUae says

The London Spectator says of our Gen =
eral Sheridan: "Any n who looks mar
rowly into the facts will discern in the
foresight 4, decision, speed, sudacity, reso-
lHt:on and wise caution of Philip Sheridan
something Napoleonic. Had he been n
France ninety years ago, he would have
become Marshal and a Duke; had he
been born in England, his fine military
gifts would have been lost TO this country,
or, if he had entered the army he would
have died almost a Sergeant"

The Ku-KIuX Khan.

The Ku-Klux Khan, so-called, have
obtained a reorganization from General
Meade, who on Saturday issued an or
der which declared that certain muir
ders and outrages of recent occurrence
in Georgia were the acts of a secret or
gsnization, and warns all citizens from
participation in its work of intimida-
ton Of voters. Gen. Meade includes
iniammatory newspaper articles and
speeches among the means employed
in this business, and gives warning that
the authors of such will be liable to
trial and punishment by military COM
mission.
The name Ku Klux is said to be de-
rived from the noise of the cooking of
a rife, and is significant of shooting at
sight. Gen. Meade informs the Khan
and their friends that, if shooting is to
be the order of the day, he proposes to
have a hand in the work.
On the whole, we Judge that this
Khan is a reality, and means dan gerous
mischief. 1t has spread, in an incredi-
bly, short time, from Eastern Tennessee
to every nook and corner of the South.
eTn States, 1t is petted in an indirect
way by the worst of the rebel pIess,
and hints are given here and there of
the great deliverance from COngression-
al rule that the South is to have at
some future day through its operations.
If it is really another secession snake,
the sooner its fangs are drawn by the
judicious exhibition of loyal power, the
better it will be for all of us-more par
ticularly, however, for the Southern
people.

As we said last week, there is but lit
tie change even in'styles ofsfurs. Clark
90 Farmer have, perhaps,othe largest as
,sertment.ef furs in. the city, and from a
survey of their stock we gather the fol-
lowing items:
For some years'it has been ruinored
that the old-fashioned- -gbow would be
brought out, but the prediction remains
unfplflled. But there is some approach
to it in the narrow bow that ties in one
knot, with long ehds reaching to the
waist.u The small abow, made up of a
single skin, with the head remaining oas
an ornament. The bow does not gain
favor rapidly, most ladies preferring the
collar but those made Of white are much
used 4orsopera wear, and the mink, with
its glittering eyes, is much admired for
the completion of a skating costume,
and matches the pocket muff. = zF a
Ermine sets are the most fashionable
for opera or evening wear, and the only
fur suitable to be worn with a costly
velyetg cloak. Sable is made. in mufss
bows ana collars. Mink is the most gem
erallysworn of dark fur, the pyies being
lower than sable. The price of mink
set is less than last year-the principal
cause of this being the increasing popu=
larity of Persiana and Astrachan.
Gray squirrel is still much worn, and
is durable, looking well until nearly
worn out. The coarse, common furs
which were often seen during the past
few years now find no purchasers, and
should not BE- worn. d{
Sealskin was introduced last year, and
will be much worn for skating costume
the coming season. 1t is made in loose
sack, lined with quilted silkAa muff to
match-and jaunty cap of glossy seal.
skin, with dropping feather. Occasion
ally sealskin sack is noticed for its od-
dity, having vein of the natural color
of the seal, which is a yellowish, creamy
tint. running across the back in the
form of vine with tendrils.
Russian lamb is made up in sacks with
muf and collar, or boa. Gray Persian.
is worn in sets of cloak, muf and collar;
there are two kinds of this gray, one
with fine round curl about the size of
small shot, and another with larger
curl and more glossy. Persian is more
costly than squirrel but probably NOT as;
durable, and is made from the skin Of a.
sheep found in Persia and the south of
Russia.
