THE DIFFERENCE

Chicago, in few years, will be
rebuilt and the last vestige of the
most disastrous fire in modern times
wholly obliterated. But, attracting
less attention, far more momen-
tous disaster is now in process of
contamination. The Constitution of
the United States has been under
mined and our structure of liberty
is lettering to its base. The En-
forcement Act is destroying and con-
suming daily the very elements of
civil liberty, and yet, strange though
it be, few of those who are to suffer
are mindful of the evils around and
before them.

HEAVY PRoPOSITON.-An editor
in New Hampshire grows indignant
over the corruptions and rascalities
of those in high places who have
heeced the people, and makes this
swinging proposal
Hang the scOundrels. There
ought 10 be law passed by the
Legislature of this and every other
State, and by Congress too, making
it a capital crime for any man, high
or low in official position, either in
State or nation, to steal the public
money. There should be laws that
will hang every official thief or de.
faulter in this country. We care
not to what party he belongs, if he
steals the public money raised by
any form of lawful taxation, he isn't
fit to live, but ought to die for the
public good.
We have no doubt that more than
half of all the public debt of this
country has been caused by rascals
who stole the money. They ought
to be killed.

THE CHICAGO CALAMITY.

The Savannah News gives ex-
preston to a sentiment alone worthy
Of the Southern people in relation to
the great disaster in Chicago. 1t
says
The South has no investments In
Chicago. Our impoverished people
have no capital in insurance institu-
tions. no business relations with
Chicago; but in common with the
commercial world we must expect to
experience in some degree the effects
of her calamity. Even should it not
produce revulson in the great
financial centres of the North, by
which our commercial interests
would be prejudicially affected, the
loss of the vast amount of bread
stuff's stored in the magazines of the
greatest produce depot of the West,
will have the effect to enhance the
price Of bacon, -four and corn in
those markets from whence the sup
plies of the South are drawn, es-
pecially at a time like the present,
when the nations Of Europe are
drawing SO largely from this side
1t is to be feared too, that the with
drawal of so vast an amount of CAPT
tai from the ordinary channels of
trade, viii have the effect to depress
the price of our great staple in the
same ratio that it enhances the price
of provisions, In all its paralyzing
and depressing effects on the gener-
al business prosperity of the coun-
try, the South, like every other Sec
ton, will share in a greater or less
degree. Therefore, we are not dis
interested spectators of the calamity
that has befallen the distant city OF
Chicago. But, if it were otherwise,
the people of that devoted city
would have our sincere sympathy
and, if we were as able as hel
wealthy neighbors, the generous
Southern heart would need nc
prompting to extend liberia
helping hand in this hour of her over.

ARE THEY FEELING THEIR wAYo

The Atlanta Era in a long article
deploring the terrible disorders of
the Ku Klux concludes as follows !:
"There is much more involved in
the suppression of this outlawry than
most persons, at first glance, are apt
to think. Suppose ii should turn
out that the law Courts, State and
Federal, should be unable to put
down this disgraceful species of
brigandism, what follows? Must
lawlessness continue? In that case,
the instincts of self preservation will
prompt men to form counter organ
izations, and to oppose force BY force,
Just as hos been the case in Mexico
and some of the South American
states for years. This puts US UNI
der government of the mob, and
supplants the Courts with the par
tisan junta. What peaceable and
law abiding man desires to live in
such a community as that ? Is it not
evident that such a state of affairs
would soon reduce us to state Of
pure barbari8m And yet this
must be the inevitable result, unleSs
that most dangerous Of all crpedientS,
martial las0, is reSorted to. Martial
law is fully authorized By the acts Of
Congress as a last resort, sche'a both
State and Federal Courts taiI to rc-
store order; and property holders aclH
alaCays arelco0ae martid lac rather
than end,Vc a1sarchg 1t may in
deed destroy Liberty, but it will pre-
serve Civilization and when men
are thus forced to choice between
the two, they will never hesitate to
accept the loss of civil liberty rather
than the loss of both liberty and civ
iIization.'

THE FARCE.-Our neighbor, tho
Era, seems to be sensitive about
what is said of the remarks of its ed :
itor, in relation to the postponement
of the investigation of tho charges
against Capt. Foster Blodgett, on
Saturday last
1t has been stated-and to some
extent the Era has intimated the
same-that all these prosecutions
amounted to farce, and would most
likely end in smoke. This is the
impression conveyed by reading
several articles which have appear
ed in the columns of the Era.
What has really been done, so
far, is the arresting and binding over
to Court of the following persons:
|. P. Harris, n. p. Hotchkiss, B.
w. Wrenn, James Mullins, w. d.
Il. Millar, J. {. Alexander, Joseph
Fry and Foster Blodgett-all, eX-
cept two of these upon the affidavit
of Maj. c. p. McCalla.
We have seen a list of over TWEEN
ty names, whose cases, with speci-
fed charges, will be presented to
The Grand Jury-the result OF which |
we shall see.
We are inclined to the opinion
that there is not much farce in it

PREJUDICE.

This has been the great source OF
Southern woe and is yet the great
obstacle to Southern progress and
deliverance. However well found
ed it has ever been unwisely indulg-
ed. The Atlanta Constitution sug-
gests mode of deliverancc
Loaded as our old national states
men are with the prejudices of a
life time advocacy of certain fixed
views Of government, imbibed in
early education and riveted by the
ambitions of politics and the intense
antagonisms of public strife, they
find it hard to accommodate them
selves to new order Of things, de-
mmding the modification and in
some cases the utter abandonment of
cherished convictions. And again
their connection with old events, in
which sectional sentiment is largely
involved, and their indentifcation
with the incidents preliminary to the
great revolution that went against
them and their people, render their
prominent association with public
matters now an embarrassment and
an injury.
Their prejudices and their ante
cedents alike clog their utility as
public leaders, and impede the
achievement of Southern political
independence and power. And none
more profoundly regret this than we
do.
1t is therefore an emergency in
which a younger, less known and
more maleable class of men must in
the very nature of things come to
the front, and bear the burden of
leadership-a class of men less we'd
ded to the past, less under the in
tluence of old Prejudices, more pro-
gressive, and more capable of ac-
commodating themselves to the
clearing away Of old ruins and rub
bish-a class Of men whose honesty
is guarantee that nothing corrupt
will be endorsed, whose honor will
prevent the acceptance Of disgrace,
whose courage will preclude submis-
sion to dishonor, and whose intelli-
gence, disciplined in the rough
schools of war and subsequent ad-
versity, and animated by Southern
patriotism, will master the great
questions Of this new epoch, with its
startling changes and unexpected
and amazing reforms, and rejecting
the evil, assimilate to the public
body polite all that is good and val
liable.

State gives money for pictures,

&c, grant to theatre is consider
ed to be outside the functions Of the

means of refining the masses, and
turning their thoughts from low,
coarse ideas TO great and ennobling

WISCONSIN.

EVANSVILLE, Oct. 14.-Governor
Fairchild telegraphs that the appall-
ing calamity has not been exagger-
ated. Over three thousand men,
women and children are now desti-
tute. The loss of life has been very
great. Not less than five hundred
persons have been burned at Pesh-
tigO aud vicinity, and three hundred
on the eastern shore. The men,
women, and children who were
manned and burned, are now in tenn
polary hospitals.
CHICAGO, Oct. l3.-A dispatch
from Green Bay, Wisconsin, states
that a steamer had just arrived from
the burning and reports that three
hundred and twenty-five bodies were
burned at Pishtego last night, and as
many more are still missing. Sew
enty five persons were burned to
death at Little Sturgeon Bay. The
suffering throughout the North is
terrible.
The fire at Manister destroyed
% buildings, six of which were
mills, together with all the shipping
at the docks. Loss, ST, 100000.
Further advices from Green Bay
state that $50 men were burned to
death in large barn where they
had sought refuge. Hundreds Of
people have been driven into the
rivers and drowned.
The loss of grain in Chicago foots
up 100000 bushels.
GALVESTON, Oct. l4.-The Dem
Gratis have doubtless elected all four
of the Congressman.
The aggregate majority of the
State is estimated at 10000.
GALVESTON, Oct. l4.-One hum
dred and twenty-five colored militia
have arrived at Groesbeck. Bust
ness has been suspended there, and
all the roads leading to the place are
guarded, and none are allowed to
pass 1out or in. Twenty-Five citi-
zens have been arrested and placed
under bonds for their appearance
before Judge Oliver.
AusrIN, Oct. 14.-I'he Cover
nor's proclamation of martial law
was taken up in the House. A res
olution to sustain the Governor was
opposed by many leading Republi-
cans. Plumly, a Radical from Gal
weston county, bitterly opposed it,
and said: II shall vote against the
Governors proclamation of martial
law, because / think it Illegal. l
will not be deferred from expressing
my opinion against the proclamation
by the cry of having gone over to
the Democracy. | shall vote
against it because | am Il Repubh-
can, and regard the proclamation as
destructive to the party, and sub
versive of the Constitution and lib
critics of the people. The Governor
has made mistake. | will not be
compelled, under a party lash, to in
dorse and ratify the error My
county has increased its Democratic
majority from 100, two years ago,
to 1000 now. The increase is caus-
ed by enforcing just such illegal and
irregular declarations o. martial law
as we are now considering"
