TIE reconstructed" South exhibits
some curious anomalies. For instance.
in Florence, Alabama, the conductors
and drivers on the street cars in this
city nearly all belong to the first
families, and consequently they are
admitted in "first family" fashionable
society; but the men who W the
street railroad are Northerners, and
are not admitted where their humble
employees are welcome. In the same
. town there isa mar from Maine who
has been prospecting for the leasing
of . large tract Of marsh land, where
he proposes to cultivate large frogs
and preserve and can their hind legs,
for use in the North ut all seasons of
the year. The town of Florence is
improving rapidly. \ large number
of Jews have purchased lots in the
city, and have put the lots in the mar
ket at, on az average, $3.50 each. A
man who Is making a fortune in Flor
ence by selling his real estate, several
years ago ran away, pcnniless, from i
vessel which came to this port. lie
went to work, saved money and bought
the land which is NOW making him
rich.

of putting off the election of members
of Congress till August, 1871. This
would leave the State without repre-

coNF1scATED REBEL PROPERTY.

During the continuance Of the rebel
lion ideas were rather loose in relation
to the manner In which the laws
against treason might be carried out.
In regard to persons guilty Of this Of
Tense, there was no actual instance of
IN Indictment and trial for treason.
The Army and the War Department
dealt with traitors or suspected trail
tors summarily. Where the mill
tary authorities made arrests, or,
more properly speaking, captures of
suspected persons, the parties thus
seized were treated rs prisoners of
war. Suspected traitors arrested by
the State Department were sent to
Fort Lafayette or Fort Warren, and
there held until they entered into some
arrangements for future good bela-
vior; nobody was tried, nobody was
sentenced. In the States which were
in rebellion, and in some Of the loyal
States, property was seized, conflscated
and sold, not by virtue of the DEGREES
of Courts Of justice, but by military
orders. Exactly what titles might be
conferred by these sales was not agreed
upon. The Government made no
guarantee. and the purchasers took
their own risks, and most frequently
without understanding the value Of
their acquisitions. Since the conclu-
sion of the war many persons who
were interested in Southern property,
seized upon and sold by military or
| other orders, have come forward and
claimed to recover it upon various
grounds. There ia 4 good deal Of
litigation connected with this sub
ject yet unsettled, and much more
Is likely to arise. The decision Of
the case Of BiSelow vs. DcForcst. is
one of the first in which the effects of
sales of coniiscatcd property have been
considered, and the Judgment of the
Supreme Court is important, rs it af-
fects 4 large class OF cases arising in
the South, and will bear authority for
many proceedings in the future. The
real estate in controversy was pro-
ceeded against, condemned and sold.
Since that time the party who was the
owner during the rebellion has died,
and his heirs have brought suit in
cjcctment to recover back the property.
The claim was resisted on the ground
that the title of the original owner was
forfeited by his treason, and his rights
in the property thoroughly Invested.
But the United States Supreme Court
decide that it was only his estate dur
inc his life which was Invested. and
since his death his heirs may recover
the property. This decision is likely
TO create 4 sensation among holders OF
| coniiScatcd estates in the South, but 1t
is really in accordance with clause two
section three, article three, of the
Constitution Of the United States,
which says:-"Congress shall have
power to declare the punishment
of treason, but no attainder of trca-
son, shall work corruption Of
blood or forfeiture except during
the life of the person a%ttaintcd."
Gradually we are approaching
\ thorough understanding of the
nature and responsibilities of rebellion
which heaven forfeMd we shall ever
have another attempt to subvcrt the
Government-we shall at least under
stand "whcthcr treason is odious,"
and if so, how it should be punished.

THE BuIetia is rejoicing in the fact tina.
it has growing limitations Of the tendency
Of interior trade to seek San Francisco in
stead Of Chicago. San Francisco has had,
and it ought to be able to retain, the trade OF
this coast. II il do not, there is something
wrong about the top story Of its merchant
princes or priccs.-Scc. Bee.
The merchants of san Francisco
have played the "shoo fly" long
enough towards not only many respon-
sible traders on this side of the noun
tains, but also towards Il Nevada
newspapers, in refusing to advertise
in them, and thereby showing to our
merchants that they desire the Nevada
trade. But, they say, "your attach
ment law and Practice Act are so
defective we cannot collect an honest
debt in your State" Perhaps they
are but let the merchants of San
Francisco show 4 little more frlcndli-
ness towards the press of this State,
by more liberal patronage, and they
will see that the Legislature next
winter will remedy defective laws, in
the matter complained Of.

THE first and main step toward obtain
ing q competency of ten, twenty, or fifty
thousand dollars, is the securing of one
thousand; the chief difficulty in getting
the one thousand is in obtaining the first
hundred and keeping it. HscSneyed as
this may appear, it is a fact that is ever
new, and one that ever needs to be drum
med into the ears of the struggling mil
lions who work hard and look with strain
ing vision, but in vain, for the coming OF
plentiful days And especially does this
homely philosophy Of wealth need TO be
emphasized at the present time, and i'm
pressed upon the young men II this gencr-
alton, since the prevalent tendency, now
more than ever before, is for beginners
in married or business life 10 adopt such a
scale of personal and family expenditure
as must render thrift impossible. The
youth of our time seem likely to forget
that easy circumstances in middle or ma
ture age are, as rule, only to be purchas-
ed at the cost of rigid self-denial in ear
iier years. The son and daughter are
ambitious to begin life where their parents
left off-in other words they wish to reap
where they have not sown, or before they
have sown, and the result is, lives of make
shift, anxiety and failure. Most of those who
are really industrious, and yet find them
selves at the noon of life with only their
daily efforts between their families and
want, could have been in more comforta-
bic circumstances, had they early learned
the lesson that the key to competency
lies in the practice OF rigid economy a,

commences life for himself viii rarely be.

Some of the ways in which even very
small sum, actually saved and put aside
in early life, serves as stepping stone 10
future competence, are these:
The saving gives the young man the
reputation among his neighbors and bus
mess associates Of being careful, frugal,
and prosperous. 1t gives him what is
called a good business credit, it is accept
ed as an index of his business character,
and instead of his being forced to seek
employment. opportunities seek him.
Besides, his little ready capital enables
him 10 take advantage of business OPEN
ings which, if wholly empty handed, he
could not aspire to. II enables him soon
to become his own employers most i'm
portant consideration Money begets
money. Capital has q natural tendency
to increase itself, and a very little capital
in the hands of a juiicious and COM
bined with the labor of strong and skill
full hands, is vast help. The day laborer
or the mechanic who has few hundred
dollars in the bank, or invested in a good
interest bearing security, is capitalist as
well as q working-man, and is prepared
to reap the advantages Of his double
But mainly, the saving and keeping of
the first hundred or the first thousand
dollars is the key 10 future success, from

at the new brick block of Wallace &
Cunning, on Main street, in this place on
Monday afternoon, there was 8 scene OF
more thrilling and fearful interest than it
is usual in the life of man to witness. In
raising heavy material from the ground to
the top of the building rope and pulley
were used, and to assist in the raising of
the articles heavy weight of tin was at
tached to the end of the rope, which stops
at the top next to the pulley. On the day
mentioned, u little girl Of about eight
years old was innocently pulling and
swinging on the rope, when, by successive
movements Of the weight which was rest
ing on the platform above, it was moved
off its resting. place. Being much the
heavier, the weight began the descent, and
rapidly took the play ful girl from off the
ground, and thence 10 the top Of the
building, forty-fve or more feet high.
The weight struck the ground, and the lit
tie girl daDgled from the other end in ter
rible and alarming danger of a sudden
fall. The people near heard her cries as
she began to ascend, and in painful Won
der ran to the scene, alarmed and almost
paralyzed with fear to see so young, so
tender, so weak being hanging only
by the muscular effort of her slen-
der arms and tender fingers so high in
the air, suspended over stone, lumber
and other debris of q new building.
The workmen were loudly called
upon to go to the roof, but they knew
not what meant this calling them by
the numerous voices on the streets below
They looked out of the second floor win
dOws, and for some time it was difficult to
get them to understand what was wanted
Of them. In the meantime the situation
of the young girl was alarming, and strong
men turned pale as death which seemed
ready to take the child. Her tender hands
not being used to go rough hold,
her physical strength began to give way
Che began slipping, slipping down, nearer
and nearer the end of the rope. Two
minutes had elapsed since she began as.
cending, and now exhausted nature could
hold out but little longer. Sfch suspense
was painful The excited crowd below
cheered the girl as best they could. while
anxjOusly did they watch for help from
Off the roof, and it came just in time-a
few seconds longer and the child would
fall. What suspense, and then what
relief, to those almost breathless specta-
tors, when the strong arm reached out and
rescued the fainting girl from the impend
ing fall :! She is lifted away from her
slender hold and is telling to the gaping
childr en- the wonderful exploit which
struck terror to the strongest heart,
turned pale faces that were not used
thereto, and, no doubt, she will never for
get the incident, nor will those who saw
the scene.--IiHsburgh Gazette.
