bate on ritual wGs resumed. Rev. Dr.
Mason, of n. O., talked most eloquently,
and produced three chief points as regards
the snbiecs. There was ritualism that IS
idolatrous; ritualism that is superstitious;
and ritualism that is decent. He would
exclude any thing symbolic in doctrine;
There were numerous amendments offered
but as fast as they were they were reject

South Carolina is suffering
greatly under the military rule
OF the Federal government in
several of her districts. Hun
dreds have been imprisoned,
and more forced to leave their
homes. Both the guilty and
the innocent are leaving, for
innocence is but little protec-
ton where any vindictive ras-
cal can have his enemy impris-
oned simply by a word.
Many poor and uneducated
persons have given themselves
up, acknowledging themselves
to have been Of the ku-klux
organization, but alleging they
were forced to join. None OF
those concerned in murders
have delivered themselves up,
and very probably none have
been or Will be arrested. Thus
the outrageous acts of a few
desperadoes have brought ruin
upon thousands. .. ..- a
If any people ought to be
excused for ku-kluxism, they
should be the South Carolini
ans. The government OF Lou
isiana has been excellent il
comparison to that Of SoutI
Carolina since the war.

KICKING Bird and other Kjowi

Kicking Bird, and other kowa
Chiefs made an application for the
release of Satanic and Big Tree.
The appeal having beenreferred to
General Sherman, for his opinion,
he returned it with the following
endorsement: rE...
"RespectfulIy submitted to the
Secretary of War to ascertain the
wishes ofthe Interior Department.
In this case Satanta oughtto have
been hung, aud that would have
been ended; but his sentence has
been committed to Imprisonment
for life, and l know these Kiowas
well enough to see that they will be
everlastingly pleading for his re,
lease. He should never be releas
ed, and | hope the War Depart.
ment will never consent to his re.
turn to his tribe. As to Big Tree,
| do not consider his Imprisonment
so essential, though he ought to
keep Satanta'S company. With
this exception l approve of the
action of Agent Tatum, and would
advise him to treat the KiOwas
as strictly as the CaddOeS and
other treaty Indians. Kicking
Bird can keep the Kiowas peace
able if Satanta is out of the way

when he asks for his release; but
that is simply acting the part t.

A very ungallant correspon-

recently visited all the courts
OF Europe, says that he did not
see a single good-looking prin-
cess. As for the Grand-duch-
ess hereditary Of Prussia, about
whose beauty SO much has been
written, he says that she is a
thin and sour-looking creature,
who appears to be over thirty
years Of age. Queen Olga, of
Greece, he calls a pert-looking
little woman, who evidently
lacks brains. The Empress
Augusta of Germany, he
charges with dressing in too
youthful a style. "Her males
ey," he says, is homely wo-
man; and SO is her daughter
in-law, the fat ungraceful
crown-princess. The Princess
Frederick Charles, in whom
expected to find an angelic
beauty, from what | had read
about her, is a coarse-featured
lady, with very imperious and
awkward manners. She ap-
peared to more like a house
keeper or a farmers wife than
a princess

Our Police Jury convened on
Wednesday last and up to our
going to press, is still in ses-
sion. We will publish its pro-
ceedings next week. They
are transacting business of a
character very important to the
parish; and if what they do is
not pleasing to certain individ-
uals, those individuals should,
by all means, curb their resent
ments.
Under the present condition
of our laws, the Police jury
has a very difficult position to
occupy. For inStance-how
can the BODY raise parish war
rants up to par, when the State
forces the parish to pay such
heavy costs in criminal prose-
cutions, and at the same time
limits parish taxes to one hun
dred per cent of State tax prop
err How can the roads be
worked. when the only penalty
for road hands not working. is
a fine to be recovered by suit /!
The man with only exempted
property is certainly independ-
ent of road working. These
are but a few Of the difficulties
the Police Jury has to labor
under. The members are GER
tainly trying to do their duty
to the parish as "a whole as
well as to individuals.
