A Pensioned Press.

One OF the carpet-bag Senators
of North Carolina attempted, the
other day, when the deficiency
bill was under discussion, to sad
die some carpet-bag newspapers
upon the public treasury. Mr..
Anthony opposed the motion, and
said that newspapers that could
not support themselves deserved
to die. His opposition was sue
cessful-the Senate concurred.-
The New York Tribune commends
Mr.. Anthony and the Senate,
and adds:
Newspapers that can't support
themselves are not likely to de-
serve Government support, or to
be of much use either to the Gov.
eminent or anybody else.
This is an excellent compliment
from Greeley to the Radical papers
of Tennessee, most of which are
sustained by the act of the Legis-
lature giving them monopoly of
all the legal advertising in the
State.

The Railroad Meeting.


The meeting of the stockhold-
ers Of the Winchester and Ala
bama Railroad at Decherd, last
Tuesday, reelected the acting
Board, with w. FL. Moores, Presi-
dent, and c. G. Mckinney, Secre-
tary and Treasurer of the compa-
ny. A resolution was adopted,
giving the assent of the stock
holders to the leasing of the Road
to the Memphis and Charleston
Road for ten years, at $4,000 per
year, conditioned that the lessee
shall continue and complete the
track from the Junction to a sta
tion adjacent to Huntsville, within
one year; and further, that a daily
train be run between Fayetteville
and Decherd. The assent of the
State authorities has to be secured,
of course, before the arrangement
can go into effect.

Machinery.

History is getting to be an OBJ
Solete study. Under similar cir
Gumstances you may suppose that
humanity will take on similar
manifestation; but when all the
circumstances are changed, and
new and tremendous powers are in
troduced, what is the use of your
precedents?. Among the Greeks
and Romans, certain causes pro-
duced certain effects; but who can
say that the same effects would
have been produced, had some
noble Roman published a paper,
printed on a machine press, at the
rate of thousands of copies an
hour. This knocks all our ar
guments about antiquity into a
cooked hat. Antiquity had nei-
Their railroads nor steamboats,
antiquity had no telegraph.
It is machinery that is now
governing the world. England is
q nation of steam engines; hui
mainly is secondary considera-
ton. Looking merely at the hu-
man population of England-or
New England, for that matter
and its condition, we might look
for breakdown in a week; but
when we look at the machinery, of
which these men are the mere at.
tendants, it is quite another mat
ter. They make all 6rmand solid.
Steam engines now and then
blow up individually, but they en-
gage in no general rebellion
They do not feel the pangs of
hunger, and have no forebodings
of the future. They do not strike
for higher wages. They do not i'm

world is DOW divided into three
classes--directing mind, machines,
and the slaves OF machines. The
present manufacturing system is
fastened upon this country by the
full force of steam engines and
labor-saving machinery. This sys-
TEN is destined to go on progress
sively, and triumph over the hui
man race. The machines will go
on increasing, monopolizing, doing
the labor, until manufactures,
farming, printing, etc., will he

Odd-Fel1oWship.

The fftieth anniversary of the
Order in this country was gener.
ally celebrated all over this con-
tinent on Monday, Goth ult. In
Richmond, Bedford county, the
procession was imposing, and the
address OF Rev. C. L. Randolph,
sensible and appropriate. In
Nashville, the procession was about
a mile in length, and the address
of Rev. A. j. Baird was exceed
ingly able and eloquent. He
paid the Order the high compli-
ment of saying that where its
principles were faithfully observed
and practiced, he would not hesi-
tate to accept any member as
worthy Of place in his church. In
Memphis, st. Louis, Indianapolis,
Cincinnati, and other towns and
cities, East and West, the demon
strations are reported to have been
large and imposing. But Phila-
delphia seems to have excelled
every other place liz the magnitude
and splendor of its display. There
were Deer thirty thousand men,
bers in the procession, who, with
regalia, flags, guidons, banners,
emblems, and music of scores of
bands, made up scene that will
never be forgotten. The day
concluded with a ball, at the large
skating rink, at which fifteen
thousand people were present, one
half of them ladies. -Four thou
sand persons were dancing at one
time.
The growth of the Order in
this country has been almost mi
raculous, The first lodges were
instituted in Boston and New
York, from England, in 1899, but
they did not flourish, and a thrifty
organization was not effected un-
til 1919, when Washington
Lodge was instituted in Baltimore,
under charter granted by Duke
of York Lodge, of Preston, Eng
land. From this small nucleus
sprung the Order of Odd-Fellow-
ship in the United States, which
has increased and extended
throughout every State, Territory,
and Province of this hemisphere,
until to-day, it numbers not less
than three thousand seven hun
dred lodges under the jurisdiction
of the Grand Lodge of the Uni
ted States, with an active men,
bership of over three hundred
and fifty thousand.

A Good Investment.

The Tobacco crop alone, in a
single year, from the farms that
are offered in the "Great Land
Sale Enterprise" at Henderson,
Kentucky, sold for over S57, 900,
and besides this, the owner raised
enough supplies, in the way of
corn, pork, grain, &C., to carry on
the farms the next year, and have
some left besides. We are not

Education as it should be.
NUMBER ONE.
By MALCOLM.


The following extract from
Rackurd's Monthly for May speaks
! for our views:
"If you tell me that mathemat-
les, for instance, is a science to
which Woman's powers are une-
quail, I answer, that depends on
aclsich woman you refer to. There
are great many women not quail
flied to shine, even in orthogra-
lphy; yet / would not, on that ac-
count, forbid them the use of the
spelling-book. ! shall not advise
nay daughter to study Greek; but,
Iif she chooses so to do, and / make
no objection, I don't see why 9TH
ers should trouble themselves a.
bout the matter. / believe Ma
ture is competent to the vindica-
ton of her own laws, and that>no
act of Congress, no decree of q
Board of Education or University
Regents, is required to prevent
the growth of cucumbers on pea
vines, or artichokes on hop-poles.
These matters may be trusted to
regulate themselves.
"I would have, then, our Acad-
emies and Colleges, like our Com
mon Schools, open to all clearly
and withdrawing persons who
may see fit to claim their advan-
tages and pay the established
charges, without exclusion on ac-
count of age, or caste, or sex. If
women could not find therein the
opportunities for requirement that
they need and seek, they would
continue, of course, to look else
where; but, so far from excluding,
/ would make exertions to attract
them. That their presence, in
considerable numbers, would ele-
vate the common standard of mo-
rails, as well as of manners, in our
Colleges, / have no manner of
doubt; and the frequent insinua-
ton that such community of study
would be perilous to female mod
esty or purity, rightfully belongs
to a darker age than ours. Ire
member Mrs. BTandyball, in one
of Theodore Hooks novels of So
ciety, Boosting of her Seminary
for Young Ladies as one of the Sa-
fest in the world-being entirely
surrounded by a dense wall, eight
feet high, surmounted by sharp
spikes and broken glass bottles. /
reckon all the virtue preserved in
this way was not worth the cost
of its defences."
In the discussion of education,
we prefer to give the matured and
well-founded opinions of those ell
der and ADLER than ourself-ot
wise philosophers who have made
human nature a lifetime study,
and, consequently, are best pre-
pared to- judge what are its re-
quirements.

HE% Senator Sprague,

~ Senator Sprague, Of
Rhode Island, is an impracticable
politician. He belongs to no ring,
is immensely rich, and appears to
be entirely independent. Most of
all, he is thoroughly posted as to
most of the gigantic schemes of
public robbery at present in pro.
gress, and is consequently both
feared and hated by the pocket-pa-
triots of the party to which he os-
tensibly belongs. Some of these
gentry, by way of counterblast to
his damaging disclosures, assert
that he drinks to excess. Others
say that he is the cat's-paw of
his father-in-law, Chief-Justice
Chase, and is industriously clay
ing pipe" with a view to the NOM
ination of that gentleman for the
Presidency in 1872. But these
countercharges do not affect the
proofs of Radical rascality which
he is continually bringing to light.
He is a wait-a-bit thorn in the side
of the Ring Interest, and roar
and writhe as it may, the barb
sticks and the wound deepens.
