stimulants it recovered, aud we un-

A Maudliu sentiment.

Comment on the prevalence of crime through
out the country would seem simply a waste of
ink and paper. 1t really appears of little avail
with the "head centres" of law that the press
narrate again and again, and continually. the
ceaseess recurrence of crime in almost every con-
ceivable form. Even judges of courts and prose-
cutting attorneys, however vigilant and efficient.
are unable to enforce the law against capital
crimes Grand juries may faithfully discharge
their duties, and still the laws fail of enforcement
Now. whose fault is thisi Absolutely, the fault
of the petit jures of the country, the reader an
swers, and answers truly. These juries coolly ac-
quit men proven guilty Of deliberate murder in
this and other counties i'm the State and all over
the whole country. As a consequence the price
Of life has become No cheapened that it is taken
by any one who chooses, has become a very com

haps not too much TO say that public sentiment
is becoming perverted on this subject ii is inocu-
lated with a maudlin scntimentalism about capi-
tai punishment and juries. being as general rule
representative men and citizens, naturally enough
participate to greater less extent in this sick
ly sentilnentality. Even when convicted of crime
and sentenced, the criminal often escapes a con-
dign punishment. And so we may expect to be
startled almost daily by the commission of new
crimes until the most bloody and diabolical
will cease to surprise any one or until public
opinion recOvers its normal vigor and rational
status, and demands of courts and particularly of
jurcs, that laws of the land against every degree
and species of crime he impartially fearlcssy and

A correspondent of the New York Tribune recent
ly wrote the following from Washington:
While Davis was recently swinging around the
"Confederatc circle, laudably engaged i'm retiring
the Southern heart he stood sponsor to the child
of an intimate friend residing in the neighbor-
hood of Chattanooga, when n conversation ensuetl
on the prospects Of the South. The friend was
gloomy, and the rebel eX-Presiient cheered him
with "Never mind, my dear Colonel; it will come
out all right. We have recovered portion Of
our ground At the next election we will get
back every Southern State Legislature. We can
impcach the Radical Governors and / can assure
yOu that, if live, fully expect to be reinstated
as President Of the Southern Confcleracy." The
person from whom this statement comes is credit
ed with being thoroughly trustworthy. There is
little doubt that JEFF. Davis did utter words in
substance such as given above, at the time and
Oh the occasion indicated.
This is another evidence of the intentions of
the Democracy of the South, in which, of course,
they will bs backed by the COpperlleatls Of the
North, as they We're during the rebellion. The
people Of the South are fully determined for
that secession immediately after the election of
Democratic President and Congress. If the
Democrats elect the next President, those now
live who will see this Union torn and dismembered
by secession. Mark the prediction. jeff Davis
expects to have the cooperation of the Democratic
President in rebuilding the Southern Confede-
racy.
The only way to prevent such things is to elect
a Republican President. We heard of an old gen.
tleman in this country of Democratic proclivities,
who recently said to his son: at is too soon yet
To put the Democrats in power; they yet have too
much antipathy to the government. We hope
every rejecting man will consider that point.
All know the Union is safe in the hands Of the
Republicans, for they have dragged it from the
fiery abyss Of dissolution and preserved it with
their blood We do not know that it would Ike
safe with the Democrats, for the last time the
Union was under their control they dragged it in

THE CnoLERA.-Fears are again aroused of the
approach of the cholera, spreading from Persia to
Europe, and thence to this country Our large
cities cleansing their streets tn bid the visitor
definance. We copy the following from the st.
Louis Democrdf:
Prevention alone Ike relied upon; to trust
to cure is death. The experience of the London
Sanitary Board, in 1865, and of the New York
Boarl of Health during the same summer, prove
that with modern science and common sense the
epidemic may be stamped out wherever il puts in
an appearance. In England they isolated the pa
tient, they purified the room he occupied, and they
burned his soietl clothing. If he died he did not
leave a legacy Of death behind him, and il was
found possible to dispose of each it came,
instead of leaving it rs a focus for other eases.
This was the course after the cholera made its
appearance. Before its arrival every street and
alley clcansed and disinfected, and the whole
city set in order for its coming That the
violence of its ravages was abated by these pre-
cautious there can he doubt. A similar plan
adopted now will be attended just as certainly
with the same results, and harvest of death
made larger by its increased population than it
has yet reaped in this country, may he de

Coon DOCTRINE Foa TALK, But A Poor ONE
FOR wORK.-Thc Lcavcnworth Bulletin a blatf
ering Free Trade papcr-the only positive one, in
fact, in the State-goes back ON its own preaching
most beautifully, when the question is brought
home to it. 1t is foupd that Leavenworth needs
manufactures and the Bxllcfis undertakes to tell
how to secure and build them up. 1t goes ON ia
tell how, as a general principle, it is opposed to
discriminating in favor of one branch Of industry
under ordinary circumstances, il does not believe
in offering subsidies; generally speaking, wants
to every enterprise stand upon it's own bottom;
but being rs how, nevertheless, notwithstanding,
and all that sort of thing it is in favor Of exempt
ing manufactures In the city from taxation for
certain length of time-in plain terms, the Bxlie-
tin confesses that Protection to Home Industry is
the only way to build up home manufactures
The Protection doctrine is to tax foreign manufac
turers in order that they may not, with their fab
rics produced at oppressively low rates Of wages,
nndersell and brrak down home manufactures of
the same kind; aud while protecting home manu-
factures, it also brings in o revenue to the Gov
ernment. The Bsilctis proposes to encourage
manufactures, by relieving them Of the burden
of taxation imposed upon other branches of indus
try. 1t is substantially good Tariff doctrine-less
just, to he sure, but aiming at the same object.

Free Trade is pretty good thing for wind work,

id business, and then dry npon that hobby. Med
icine that will not help the ailing, is worthless

are able 10 pay the costs.
FoxFIRE-Go it, old fellow; you have sof
thing. But look sharp, or they will sink down OF
you for hundred dollars, the first thing yor
know.
BENzrSE-A good opening, and the hest paying
business going. If you are ashamed to do it your
self, carry it in the name of some man who ha.
got beyond that point.
ISNoCENCE.-If the fellow saved your scalp
and then refused to do your dirty work, he ha,
proven himself very ungratcful. The sooner you
cut his acquaintance, the better. 1t is a very
selfish soul that looks for friendship to work lotl
ways. Yet You are not wholly blameless, if you
neglected to remind him, at least three times a
week, that you were his friend, and to demand
some practical evidence of friendship ON his part
EsoP.-The frog was busted, simply because
he got too big for his skin. You ought to know
how it is yourself.
CORNs.-H you cannot trust your home physi.
clan to prescribe for your poor feet, consult
distant doctor by letter. Their wives some.
times read their letters, and gossip around among
their neighbors.
HAM.-You are correct. That's the way mig.
ger gets served when he sells himself, after they
have used him all they want to. We may add,
white men generally get fixed the same way.
Good for them.
LARK.-If liquid was emptied upon your head
from an upper window, while serenading your
sweetheart, and it discolored your clothes badly,
you should seek explanation without delay
for there is something about it that don't look just
right.
LiMBERTwIG.-If you hate the man, and have
not the grit to face him and tan his pelt, we can
only recommend patience. Wait until the next
civil war, then report him to the Jawhawkers as
dangerous character, and have them go through
him.
]. L. & CO.-Splendid opening. You don't need
any house. There's plenty of brush all over town.
OLD GUARD.-You have no right to ask for an
Office. You have belonged to the party more than
ten years, and are barred by the statute of limi-
tations. Give the Young converts a chance.
GEOLOGIsT.-Wc have no doubt this region is
rich in minerals, if they were only dug for. Some
are now hunting for nitrate of silver.
