THE LATEST LEGLSLATIVE OUT
WYE N.Af RAGE

The latest invention Of the enemies Of the
people who were sent last fall to the State
Capitol TO swindle the public, is bill to es-
tablish a new steam-looomotive railroad
through tho heart Of Fairmount Park. This
project would seem incredibly audacious if
we did not remember that the voters Of Phila-
delphia last fall reelected members who were
guilty Of supporting schemes only few de-
groes less infamous, and If the belief had not
been generated that our citizens will quietly
submit to any rascally wrong these unscrupu-
leus adventurers may choose to perpe-
trate. All men might have known that
great evils would inevitably result from the
grant of Legislative powers to members who
were notoriously Indifferent to the welfare of
their constituents, but few could have sus-
pected or feared that they would dare to lay
their sscrilegious hands upon Fairmount
Park, and intersect the territory set apart for
sacred purpose by a totally unnecessary
steam railway line. Yet on Monday last Mr..
Miller introduced bill into the House, which
was referred to the Railroad Committee, ,provid-
ing for the incorporation Of the Schuylkill and
Angora Cor Angolia) Railroad Company, which
oonfers the power to construct steam railway
directly westward from the Columbia avenue
railroad bridge, through that portion of the
Park which lies west of the Schuylkill, to
Fifty-fourth street, and thence in a southern
or southeastern direction, with incidental
power to intersest the Park at other points.
The secret purposes of this act are not dis
closed, but some bright genius has probably
conceived plan whereby few dollars may
be made by gross violation of the rights of
che citizens of Philadelphia, and sad expe-
rienoe has demonstrated that our mis-
representatives are ready to betray their
constituents for share of the plum
der gained by gross acts of robbery
q and oppression. These heartless knaves care
not if they render the expenditure of millions
of dollars by the taxpayers of Philadelphia
comparatively useless, provided they can earn
their miserable bribes; but if the force of
public opinion is not totally powerless, we
& trust that protest will be made against this
--latest scheme of villainy which will make our
venal Legislative tyrants quail, and teach
them that the people still have a few rights
remaining which they are bound to respect.

The Constitution of Mississippi pro-
hibits the appointment of members of
the Legislature $50 a learned jurist
writes) to other offices, and yet AlcOrn
appoints, and yet the greedy raseals
swallow the oath to support the Con-
stitutiOn and accept the boon.
The Board of Directors Of the Gre
NADIA, Houston and Eastern railroad
have enough money to grade and put
down crOSs-ties on the road, and are
only awaiting the action of the Legis-
latuTe in an important matter pre-
paratOry to commencing work on the
road.
The ring, resolved to pass the in
iqOitOus general railroad bill, have re-
ferred the veto to a special committee.
To the last the Spartan band OF Con-
servatives stood firm as pillars of
iron in support of the veto, while day
by day the Republican followers of
the Governor drifted away until he
was left with scarcely a bakers dozen.
The Legislature deserves to have
especial credit for rejecting the scheme
of the Governor to levy special con-
tribution of LOCO on each of the In
surance COMPANIES transaeting busi-
ness in Mississippi. The seheme,Lt
would have driven the
companies out Of the State, and CON-
PEELED the. people to seek them else
where, or would have greatly In
creased the cost of insurance. s- /

CHICAGO.
The hew Constitution of Illinois Minority
representation judicial Elections.

CHICAGO, July 3.-The election in
this State yesterday was on the adop-
ton Of the new constitution Few
scattering returns have been received
but not enough to make it certain that
the constitution as whole is adopted.
Each of the eight propositions sub
mttted to a separate vote have been,
it is thought, adopted by a large
majority. If there be any exceptions
to this Statement, it is on the question
of minority representation. AT this
hour there seems little or no doubt of
the success Of that proposition.
In this city about twenty
thousand votes were cast, and
nearly unanimous for the constitution
and separate propositions in this Sixth
Judicial District.
VIM. k. McAllister, independent,
Is probably elected Judge of the Su-
preme Court over G. Hitchcock, regular
Republican nominee. Bath and Far
well, Republicans, and Rogers, Dem-
Ocratic, are elected Circuit Judges in
this circuit for the Second Judicial
District. Anthony Thornton, indie
pendent, is probably elected Judge of
the Superior Court over the regular
Democratic nominee in the Third Ju-
dicial District. Hon. Jno. NJ. Scott,
regular Republican nominee, is elected
over E. w. Terry, independent, in
the Seventh Judicial District. Hon.
Benz. p. Sheldon, was elected without
opposition.
The Fourth of July will be recog-
nized here by the suspension of busI-
ness, including newspapers. There
will be no general celebration, but an
immense numbero of independent ones.
The day promises to be delightful.

The indian as He Is.

A writer in the New York Tribune
tells the truth about the "Poor In
dian" when he says that one of the
great disadvantages he has labored
under is "his picturesqueness." We
have been taught by Cooper, the nov
elist, to look upon the ''nohle savage
as a natural edition of ali the original
cardinal virtues. His courage, his
legends, his domestic relations and
love of horse flesh have been sung,
sculptured and painted, while his cru
city to. the helpless and ferocity to
fallen foes, indiscriminate sentiment
tai relations, chronic desire to steal
horses and drink whisky have .been
kept carefully in the, background.
The ''red man" is a fine subject tor a
poem or water color, but in reality
he Is as coarse and dirty, as he is
treacherous, cruel and given TO SMELL
ing badly. The fig leaves of romance
with which he Ia clothed will not suf
fee to hide his moral nakedness. His
cultural utterings about bis ssGreat
Father" the '.Great Spirit, % the 'spale
facesn and the gradual extinction of
his race are very fine, but don't recon-
ellie the hardy pioneer to having his
scalp taken by the ''Child of the For
est.o

Up---How ihs Wool was Drawn
Over their Eyes.

Special to the APPEAL.l
HICKMAN, Sunday, July 3,-The
Lee passed the wharfhere at 2:4I ?. m,
railroad time, running with unparal-
leled velocity. Clouds of spray were
dashed right and left by her hur-
rying bow, and the air was
blackened with dense columns of
smoke that issued from the
heated ehimneys. When the Lee APP
peared, the smoke from the Natehez
was hardly visible twenty miles OF
more below. The whole population
of the place-men, women and chil-
dren-had been anxiously awaiting
the arrival of the racers, and never
before was there such multitude
upon the river banks as ON this bright
Sabbath afternoon. The people gath
efed here from the country for miles
around, and such day of excite
ment has not been known in
Hickman since Federal gunboats
threw their first shells at
Bahkhead's battery, in 1861. As the
Lee came up the multitude greeted
her with cheers loud and long. Two
cannous, placed upon the wharf, were
fired at short intervals, and the ex-
citement of the multitude that
thronged the river-shore for a mile or
.
more was boundless. The negroes
had all bet heavily on the Nstchez.
They didn't like the name of the Lee,
and the poor devils have lost, many
of them, their last pewter. The Nat
chez passed up at 4:45. There was
great cheering, and the guns were
again flred. The Natchez was gain
ing steadily on the Lee when she
passed, but she is hopelessly beaten. i
