" The Mystery Of Edwin Brood"
Crrom the Uniyersitv Echo1

- q aHf. ..r q .
The last words of any writer whom we
have read and reverenced, have sad and
especial interest for US, but when Gas is the
case with the late Charles Dickens) the
active brain is stilled in the midst Of health
and the pulseless hand still grasps the pen
forever stayed ia its mighty work--we
take up the broken monument Of his great
ness with deeper sadness-a more tender
reverence. Thus it is that We read !" The
Mystery Of Edwin brood; )" and as VIC
read arc haunted by unavailing regrets for
that noble mind whose utterance was
checked in its very prime and whose best
efforts were ever put forth in tho highest
good of humanity.
The wide world was the workshop Of
Charles Dickens, and his tools keen
vigorous intellect, and a marvellous discern
ment in all the labyrinthian twists aud
turns of human nature. With the aid Of
these, he has placed before us the sublimest
virtues, and the most appalling vices en-
bodied in living characters. A few trench
ant strokes of his unfailing brush and we
are startled by the breathing image that
stands forth on the canvass. A mere lay
figure in other hands, he endues with an
individuality all its own, aud it starts to
life before us.
Apart from the peculiar interest that
" Edwin brood" possesses as his last work
1T attracts one from the fact that it DIFF
fers from. and is in 'uauy respects superior
to, any of Dickens previous works. The
characters are marke ed with the unmistaka-
bic touch of his genius, but they also have
fresh vigor that imprcsscs them more
vividly on the reader. The bookas a
whole is very powerful, as if the author
had risen to new strength in his last hour,
as the last ray Of the setting sun seems
brightest to our lingering eyes. The sub
tie influence of the opium fend (upon
which the plot is based) peryades the
whole, and breaths gloom upon the light
hearted child Rosa" and the merry youth
=" Edwin Drood;" as well as upon the
deep villiany of Jasper" Indeed, every
life there delineated is marrcd-for time
at least-by its hidden yet baleful power.
In many Of Dickens works, there is but
a sligh. framework of plot sufficient to
support the various characters that appear
upon it. But in Edwin brood" the
plot is well laid and mysterious aud would
undoubtedly have been finely developed,
had its completion been permitted AS it
is-the reader is left to his Imagination to
supply the fate of " Edwin" whose mys-
terous disappearance is the Keynote of
the story Yes, incomplete as it now re-
mlius, we would rather have the magnifi-
cent fragment than have the missing link
supplied by another hand.

% Another stupendous job to rob the
Southern People is reported from New Or
leans. A largo portion of real estate in
Louisiana is held under grants and titles
from the former French and Spanish Gov
ernments, These titles, under old surveys,
have been held us good, without confrma-
ton by the United States; but under
some recent act of Congress, the provis.
ious Of which are not generally known in
Louisiana, it is claimed that in all cases
where the title has not been confirmed, or
where the surveys cannot be found in the
Land Office, the property is public land,
which must be turned over to the United
States, subject to entry under the provis-
ions Of the Homestead law. To carry out
this scheme of robbery, a register and re-
ceiver of public lands have been appointed,
and the carpet baggers who are in the con.
.spiracy expect to get possession not only Of
plantations, but also of whole squares Of
valuable city property, as public lands, un-
der the Homestead law.

WOMAN PREsIDENT.-Tn answer to
the question propounded by the Golden
Iee-" Shall the next President Of
the United States be woman ?"-the
Charleston Republican says: Thinking
it all over, We don't know but what it shall
be a woman. Where's the objection 1t
depends very much, it strikes US, on what
kind of women it shall be. If she be
young and beautiful, raven tresses, marble
brow, pearly teeth finely chisled nose, a
rosebud ofa mouth, really kissable, and all
that sort of thing so often given of their
heroines by the novelists of the romance
school; aud ii she had the intellect Of a
Bacon or q Webster, aud knew how to
hold her tongue when important state
secrets are to be kept, then where would
bc tho objection !? Mind, We don't say
there would be none, We only ask what
the objection would be? Anyhow, all must
admit that snch President would give a
live interest to governmental affairs. But
We repeat, it very greatly depends upon

A QUESTION OF VERAcIrY.-A Grand
Jury of Chester county, South Carolina,
composed equally Of whites and negroes,
in its recent investigations Of the alleged
Ku Klux outrages in that portion Of the
State, embodied the following in its pre-
sentiment to the Court: We, the Grand
Jurors, upon our oaths, are compelled to
say, from the testimony which we have
taken, and from our knowledge of the diff
fereut parts of the country, that tho allesa-
tions contained in the proclamation Of the
President of the United States are with
out foundation, and must be the result Of
falsehood communicated to him by persons
equally regardless of good order and the
peace of society.

i.Grant and the G. A. r..

Qrant's Office. .holders, remarks the Car
soai hagister, are not slow at doing their
masters work. While his opponents are
sleeping they are busy. Ono Of the evi-
dences Of their craft has come under our
observation id the shape of two nicely
printed circularsy evidently printed ou
the soyernmept press. One Of these,
neatly sdorped With .emblematic fllustra-,
tioas Of commercial aud agriculsural pro:
.grcss, contains the following: National
Standard-the representative Of the G. A.
R-The Soldiers friend-Gen. u. S.

we'll, General Agent, P. D. Box so, Wash.
ington, D. G.. Decrease of Public Debt

1871, $2G5 799,320 Union aud Grant,"
The other circular consists of laudations
of Grant declaring him the only man in
the Republican party that can with safety
be nominated to the Presidency for the
next term," and much of the same sort.
We have been frequently assured that
the Grand Army of the Republic is not a
political organization but these documents
w uOb COuut m H. Ocu UTuut rcuotuIud-
tion is urged as he is I" the Representative"
of that widespread body, and the support
of its members is pledged to that renomi-
nation. The existence Of such an organi-
cation BODIES no good to the Republican
party, and still less to the country. There
are thousands Of honest and independent
Republicans who will not care to figure on
the outside merely as instruments in the
hands Of secret society, to work and vote
for nominations which they have no hand
in making. If the Republican party is to
be in the interest of select few-a sort
of political aristocracy behind the scenes
the mass of Republican voters have but
little real interest in it. They become
merely political surfs, to spend their money,
and do the dirty work Of a cabal with
whom they are not adjudgcd worthy Of
personal association. Worse than this, u
country which is ruled by the dccrees Of
secret military organization must soon
become Republic only in name.

CaITICIsING NEwspApERs.-Itisa a very
easy matter to criticisc newspaper but
to publish a live one, so as to interest,
amusc, aud instruct the public is no small
undertaking. Those in this community
who are SO prone to find fault with every
little item which does not suit their criti-
cal and exalted ideas, should buy type,
ink, and paper. aud publish an organ Of
their own. Let them try it for three
months only, and if it don't give them
some new ideas of the newspaper business,
then we are no judge of human nature,
The conceit would be taken out of such
individuals so quickly that they would
hardly know what was the matter with

button your dress with an old pair Of slip
pers, comb your hair with boot, or grasp

You do not see how this can be ? Well,
we'll tell you. Old shoes are turned to AZ
count by manufacturers in the following
manner: They are cut into verv small
pieces and kept for couple Of days ia
chloride Of sulphur. The effect Of this
is to make the leather hard and. brittle.
Next the material is Withdrawn from, the
action of the chloride of sulphur washed
with water and then dried. When thor
oughly dried, it is ground to powder, and
mixed with some substance like glue or
gum, that causes it to adhere together. 10

n@Another new application of iron ha.

b@-Another new application of iron has
been suggested, which seems likely to prove
OF importance. A citizen of PHILADELPHIA
proposes to clothe the sides Of the canal
with, say, one eighth of an inch sheet iron.
safely fastened and suspended equidistant t
above aud below the water line. thus
preventing the washing away of the banks.
II is further claimed that by this action,
canals can be brought into active and
competing operation with railroads, and
fast-running steam propelIers can be sub.
stituted for the slow and expensive mule
power The tonnage, too, can be increased
at least three times. If these predictions
should be verified there can be no doubt of
the importance Of the suggestion.
