The River and Harbor Bill.

This bill, which has passed the House OF
Representatives, appropriates near four
millions of dollars. A hundred thousand
dollars or so is appropriated to the mouth
of the Mississippi and elsewhere on that
stream for the benefit of the northwestern
States, and small sum is given to the
State Of Tennessee (for improving the Ten
nessee river) as sop to the negro govern
mcnt of that State. Save this and an ap-
preparation of $4,000 last year to the
mouth of the Mississippi, for the benefit OF
the Northwest, not cent has been given to
the southern States in this "river and
harbor" appropriation for three years.
About $l2,OOO,OOO have been appropriated
in that time!
The partiality Of the Federal Govern
ment in the disbursement Of the improve
ment fund has been for many years a5 re-
markable as it was grossly unjust to the
South. Millions have been voted to the
northern States where hundreds of thou
sands have been grudgingly appropriated
to the southern. Take the Hudson and
the James rivers feer example. They are
similar in the extern OF their tide-lt liii1tt-
ming in both about one hundred and twenty
miles inland--on the Hudson to Albany, on
the James to Richmond. We do not over
state the aggregate that has been voted out
of the United States Treasury to improve
the Hudson river when we put it at
81 100000. To the James there was voted
| 500, 900 before the war and nothing since
| 1t would present o startling picture Of
unfairness and inequality Of benefits and
| burthens were tabular statement Of the
appropriations to the North and the South
for purposes of improvement prepared ano
laid before the nation. National wars o.
great magnitude have grown out OF griev
ances of far less magnitude than the in
jury which has in this way been inflicted
upon the South-upon that South which ha!
ever contributed it's full share to the ma
tional treasury, and more than its share t.
the national defence.

Monstrosities Of Recons truction.


The Legislature of North Carolina con-
sists of fifty senators and one hundred and
twenty representatives. OF the senators,
three are negroes, eight carpet baggers, and
twenty-seven scalawags-making thirty
eight Radicals of the representatives Six
teen are negroes, eight carpct-baggers, ana
fifty six scalawags-making eighty hadl-
calls, or one hundred and sixteen Radicals
in both branches, against ffty-two Con-
servatives-a majority of sixty-si1 on joint
ballot. The aggregate taxes paid to the
State by the Radical representation Of one
hundred and sixteen does not exceed s506.
The aggregate value of the property in the
State to be taxed Ia $3.50 ZOO, 900.
The carpet -baggers in this statement are
mostly from New England. One A. d.
ToURGEE, of Ohio, who represented Guilford
county in the late convention, is now judge
of the Greensborough district, over which
the illustrious RUFFIN once presided This
man has been furthermore appointed to re-
draft the Jurisprudence of the State-a
State renowned for the purity, dignity, and
legal ability of her jurists, at the head OF
which stood the immortal CASTOR! TOUR
GEE isl mere adventurer, with poor ac-
quirements and no principle.
A contemporary thus sums up the facts OF
South Carolina and Mississippi:
"In the South Carolina bogus Legisla-
'ture there are fifty seven whites and
"ninety-eight negroes-one hundred ana
" ffty-fve in oil. Of these, ninety pay
absolutely no tax, the remaining Sixty
" four pay SAL 80, or on average OF s6.9o
each. The real estate Of the State lat
"the absolute mercy Of these paupers) is,
"by the latest assessment, worth $780,
"507,750
"The expenses of the last Black Crook
" Convention of Mississippi, in which out
" of one hundred members there were only
" seven Mississippians, foot up already
" $4,000; and, says the State Treasurer,
there are other large allowances yet to
" be made for services rendered under its
il" laws
elm the mean time, but for the charita-
" BILE the patients in the State lunatlc asy-
" lum would starve, all the public money
l." being necessary for reconstruction.
Of course no one supposes that this ex-
ample is destined to more than an ephe-
neral existence. 1t is uncomfortable. The
mind, the capacity, and the property of the
country must either triumph over this con-
dition of things, or the State must be de-
graded to the level of the representative
bodies here described, losing dignity, re-
spectability, reliability, solvency, and pros
perity. Under this latter extremity, all
that constitutes the greatness and thrift
of a community must be banished. 1t can
not exist in the same sphere with such con-
claves, evoked from the commissions Of re-
volution, and monstrous in time of peace.

The Democratic Convention.

The proceedings in this great assembly
on Saturday were merely preliminary. Our
readers will find all that has been done re-
ported by telegraph. To-day the business
of nominating candidate will, we suppose,
be accomplished. 1t is hardly probable
that after 80 much time for conference
there will DC prolonged balloting.
One feature about this convocation IN
New York that is quite striking IS the ,ih-
mcnse number. of outsiders that II hae
drawn together from al parts OF the coah-
try. but especially from the northwestern
States. No previous convention has exhi-
bited anything of the kind. 1t is an en-
phatic expression of the deeply-aroused
public feeling. People were never 80
anxious about nomination. The coun-
try has been vexed, wearied, and worn
out with the heartless selfshness OF the IA
dical party and it's destructive measures.
The people desire to be relieved from that
party, and they desire to see the country
prosperous and harmonious. There Is no
hope but in political revolution, and TINS
New York Convention is expected to BRING
that about. Hence the people, unable 70
restrain their anxiety, rush to the place OF
it's meeting, that they may witness proceed
inps upon which so much depends.
1t is also remarkable that the great bulk
of these outsiders comes from the West.
This gives us an example not only OF the
growing power of that part or the ohloh'
but the determination Of its people to be
heard and felt more decisively than hereto
fore in national affairs. There is no mis-
take in this. We shall sec that that young
giant, which has been heretofore tied to the
apron strings of Radicalisn, will cut itself
loose and manage its policy after its own
fashion. Puritanism will yet find in that
growing power its greatest enemy.

Farmers Convention.

A convention is to be held at Burkevllle
on the 9th to consider the interests Of
farmers and real estate owners in the pre-
sent trying period. The questions OF the
sale of lands and of introducing labor
from abroad will be discussed. Upon both
Of these matters light is much needed, and
we hope some may be thrown upon them
by the approaching meeting. The gentle
men to compose the convention are the
most deeply interested of all men, and
their practical wisdom and intelligence
ought to enable them to devise something
for their general benefit.
We have not permitted ourselves to nope
for great deal until the Union is restored
and the military and the Bureau are with

importance that we should intently con-

THE SIAMEsE TwISs.-The New York
Tribune announces that these twins have
determined to dissolve their physical part
nership by severing the ligament that has
bound them together for 80 long period
about sixty years! The younger people of
these times are not acquainted with these
remarkable twins. They were born united
by stout ligament fixed to the breast of
each in close proximity to the vital organs.
This ligament, some ten inches in circum-
ference, is endowed with sensation, morbid
and nervo-mental conditions to such de-
gree that the highest medical authorities
have differed as to the possibility Of sever
ing it without death to the twins. 1t was
considered so hazardous that they have
lived together, with MI the inconvenience
of such q union, for their long lives. They
came to this country in 1927, and were ex-
hibited for some years, after which they
retired to a valuable farm in North Caro-
lima, where they were married 10 two SIS
tiers, natives of that State, and each have
nine children
At last CHANG and ENG-these are their
names-propose to separate; and it is said
they will go to Paris to have the operation
performed. We half suspect this announce
ment as O prelude to the reappearance Of
these old twins in public for the benefit OF
their numerous progeny. We shall see.

General FUsBos LOGAN, fixing UP mate
rial for his electioneering for the Presi-
dency, got q resolution passed by Congress
to gather up all the speeches and descrip-
tons of ceremonies on the occasion of deck
ing the graves of Union soldiers at the re-
cent anniversary for that work, and pub
fishing the same at public expense. Un-
der this resolution one MOORE has been ap-
pointed editor, and LOGAN calls on every
body who spoke and wrote about the occa-
sion to send forward their sayings and do
ings, to be crammed into MooRE's book
What a world of trash and bathos that
book will contain Fortunately for man
kind, they will be free to read it or not.
Were the people under compulsion to read
it, we should next have cemetery corps to
bury the dead that read the book that Lo-
GAN made, And memorial associations
would arise, whose pious task would be to
deck the graves of the Inflated men who
died in the attempt to read that book
Well would their memories deserve the
honor. The "ilnminent deadly breach, u
into the very lannon's mouth, would be an
agreeable and safe enterprise compared
to it!
But what monstrous thing is this voting
out jobs to publish such stuff at tae cost Of
the public treasury, when the people are
ground into dust by taxation. 1t Is all FOL
little Radical capital-a little more fuel
to keep alive the sectional fres--that Radi'
calls may hold on to the Offices and the pub

The PENINsuLA.-The New York o"@
says:
"The inexhaustible fertility Of the lands
Of the Virginia peninsula is matter OF
history since the days of the colonial period
under James H.. and thousands OF our
soldiers, in the disastrous campaign OF
Mcclellan, saw with their own eyes the
rich neutrality-suspicious. and the widespread
fields of wheat that stretched along the
shores of York river from the heights OF
Gloucester to White House Point. But the
war laid waste all these magnificent re-
gions, and only recently an effort has been
made to place them under cultivation
again."
The measures that are now on foot to
bring this garden-spot into notice will prove
ultimately successful. The restoration of
the State will give an impetus to these mea-
sures which will in q few years fill the
peninsula with an industrious and thrifty
population. They will have advantages in
communication with the best markets of
the Atlantic such as few people can have,
and the kind and fruitful soil will reward
their labors in most bountiful manner.
