The conviction of Samuel Brown of South
Carolina, justifies the general belief in the
northern States, that the Ku- Klux organza-
ton is composed, so far as its leaders are con-
cerned, of prominent and wealthy citizens,
who exercise controlling influence in south
ern society. Brown is a man about sixty
years of age, and owns between three and
four thousand acres ofland, within a few miles
of Yorkville. He has held various local of
fees, and is a man of influence in his county.
He was a member of Ku-Klux Khan, and
his son was its chief. The evidence shows
that the members of this Khan committed at
least one murder and whipped or otherwise
tortured many negroes. The constitution Of
the order in York county was found in Browns
house. The sentence, five years imprison-
ment and 81 900 fine, seems none too severe
in view Of the prisoners responsible position
in society.

state Temperance Convention.

The men and women OF Maine, who practice to-
tai abstinence from all intoxicating liquors. and who
are In favor of the prohibition ofther sale oy legal
enactments. are invited to meet in Mass Convcn-
ton at GRANITE HALL, AUGUSTA, WEDNES-
DAY, Jan. IL, 1872 at IL O'Clock Nnoon, to consult
upon the best measures to promote the cause OF
Temperance in the state.
While this convention is not called in the inter-
ests of any political party religious creed the
fact is patent that there is great
among the old long-tried and leading friends OF
Temperance in the state, with the present aspect
of the cause and especially that those whose duty
it is to enforce the Prohibitory Law should fail TO
do 50. It is also the conviction that some neces-
sary changes should be made in the law, and that
measures should be taken to secure its more gen
eral and impartial enforcement
The usual reducebn Of fares on the railroads
may be expected,
The convention will continue through the fol-
lowing day.

and best for the State. and not simply to
suit the interest of any individual, cor
poration, or local interest. The honest
vote is power; the dishonest one leads
to the Jail, though its owner accumulate
millions by dishonesty and his name be
Tweed. We hope that a generous and
far seeing policy will prevail in relation to
railroads. They are the chief arteries of
business. Where there are none there is
stagnation. To manage them properly is
great subject, occupying the best brains
of America and Europe. But with all the
difficulties which they present they are
necessity and benefaction. Though the
stakeholder reap no profit on his invest
ment, the road which has failed to give a
return for all it cost to the country through
which it passes is an anomaly.
The appointment of the State into con-
gressional districts will not be so great a
labor as the districting tor representatives
and senators which took place last year.
Some change of lines will be called for
which perhaps it may be found advisable
to make.
Further legislation will be demanded
for the schools. The new measures Of
the Superintendent have proved so sue
cesful that his demands will meet with less
opposition than usual. The stubborn re-
sistance which he has met and conquered,
proves, that faith in the. people towards
his plans is strong. 1t is better, no doubt,
that there be discussion and objection,
which only serve to root the system the
stronger and help it to more vigorous
growth.
In closing this article let us impress up
on our friends the Importance of adhering
to the policy of favoing by all reasonable
means the growth and development of the
State, in all its varied interests. Let us
avoid the fatal policy which governed the
State for more than quarter Of centu-
ry, forbidding capitalists to enter, placing
clogs upon private enterprise. driving our
own citizens elsewhere to obtain liveli-
hood. and worst Of all, expressing the
farmers by the general stagnation of bust
ness and the want of local markets for their
produce. We look for no steps in that
direction.

Matchmaking Mammals.

The marriage de cOnrehsance" is just as
much an institution here as in Europe,
and managing mammas are just as COM
mon. There is a lady well known in one
of our cities who has married off large
family of daughters eligibly, and prides
herself openly on having performed
mothers duty. "NOt one of Them" says
this frank woman, when speaking of her
sons-in-law, 'swould have married a
daughter of mine if l had not brought it
about by little dinners and adrOit atten-
tons. by making opportunities for inter
course. and-by putting it in their heads.
And they are all very happy. l think the
world would be much better off If the
question of marriage was settled for
people by anybody except themselves
But all young ladies have not such
clever mammas; some must scheme and

Growth of COralS.

An interesting fact has, according to
the Honolulu Gazette, been recently OBJ
served respecting the growth of corals.
Somewhat less than two years ago. Capt.
MacgregOr, of the steamer kjianea,
mOOred buoy in Kealakokna Bay. Late
ly he was ordered to hoist the anchor, and
examine the condition of the chain. The
latter, which is heavy, twO-inch cable,
was found covered with corals and oyster
shells, some of which We're as large as a
mans hand. The larger corals measured
four and one-half inches in length, which
represents their growth during the period
of two years that the anchor and cable had
been submerged. When taken out OF the
water. the cable had small crabs ON it..
A query arises, whether these crabs live
on the coral insects, or whether they smp-
ly seek the branches of the coral for pro-
lection. The popular belief is that
cOrals are of extremely slow growth.
Yet here is a rapidity of formation equal
to over seventeen feet in a century.
