BEWARE OF SwINDLERs- Savan-
nah Ne,cs has the following cautionary
remarks. which may be Of much .servipe
to the people if needed:
We would caution the readers of the
NeOs against an organized company Of
swindlers who have their headquarters
in New York, md have been for several
months past distributing circulars all
through the South, offering to arrange
mortgages, advance money, etc., on
reasonable and satisfactory terms. They
profess to control very large capital,
and pretend to responsibility. The usual
formular is gone through with after some
person has been induced to correspond
with the liberal firm, in the hope Of get
ting small loan, and he is invited to for
ward BIO as fee ''for registration. -
whom the amount desired will be imme
diately sent. The money is mailed, and
that is the last ever heard of it, It is
astonishing after the frequent exposures
that have been made of similar swindlers
that are to be found in .his section, men
are credulous enough to entertain such
propositions moment, yet We learn
that several persons in this vicinity have
been victimized by these ''heathen
Chinese, and we make this mention in
order that our readers may be on their
guard.

The jews IN RouMAN1A-Tbe perse.

oution Of the Jews in the Roumanian
principalities is disgrace to the civil
ization Of the age. The countries along
the shores Of the Danube have for CEN
turtles made that region favorite Jew
ish centre. The result OF the Crimean
war was supposed to be gain to the
Jews. The treaty OF 1856, and the sub.
sequent additional treaty signed by the
convention of 1858, made full provision
for the religious liberty Of all the Eu-
ropean subjects of the Sultan. Article
4B of the convention of 1858 guarantees
equal liberty to all Christian creeds, with
the privilege OF legislative extension TO
all other rites. In 1870, such were the
encouragements given In Koumania, the
Israeltes had increased to the mum Der
Of 100000, and the synagogues at the
same date numbered 176. It is said that
in France, about that period. the Jews
did not exceed in number 160. 900, and
that in the three kingdoms of England,
Scotland and ireland, there were not
over $4,000 of that unmixed race. In
1868, A1oldavia aud Wnlachia were
united under the common name of Rou-
mania, and the rapid increase of the
Jewish population in the united princi-
palities, with their activity and growing
prosperity, became source of trouble
to the Government of Prince Charles.
The trouble, as NIL the world knows, has
continued until this day. It is said that
in no part of the I'D nre the children
of Israel so prosecuted as they have been
in Roumania. The British Government
and our own have demonstrated in rc-
gard to it, and now the British and Ita-
liam Governments have proposed con-
ference of the great powers on the sub
lect, and to debate also the propriety of
direct allied pressure on the Roumani-
On Government to compel measures for
the executive repression of the bnrbar-
GUS outburst against the Jews in that
country. Prince Gortschakoff declines,
on behalf of Russia, being deferred by
apprehensions that the proposition will
serve only to excite an agitation of tho
dreaded Eastern question. He agrees,
however, that the powers moro immedi-
ately interested shall address Joint note
to the Roumanian Government demand
ing an explanation of it's intentions, and
o definition of the guarantees which
Prince Charles can offer for the protec-
ton of the Jews in the future, and thus
awaken the Bucharest executive to a
sense of it's official responsibilities.
Should the Roumanian reply prove un-
satisfactory to the cosignatories of the
note, the Emperor of Russia would pro-
pose settlement of the difficulty on the
basis of the treaty of 1858. The Prus-
sian Government is said to take the
same ground as Russia. It is to be
hoped, in the interests of humanity and
civilization, that such pressure will be
brought to bear upon Rnumania as will
prevent the recurrence of barbarities.

The POPE AND BISMARCK. Pope

The POPE AND BISMARCK. The Pope
received the members of the German
Literary Club. Of Rome, on June %,
and in the course of his remarks upon
the occasion made use OF the following
language: "rhe persecution of Catholics
has commenced in Germany, but they
display courage under afflction, and
have notified the German Government
that the persecution Of the church ia
folly. The church, said the Holy Father,
remains triumphant. We have asked
Prince Bismarck how it is that the once
contented German Bishops have, accord
ing to the expressed belief of the Ger
man Government, been suddenly trans
formed into dangerous conspirutors. No
reply has yet been received. Let us
pray to our Father in Heaven that the
stone may fall that will complete tue
overthrow Of the colossus"
At the first reading of the bill directed
against the Jesuits in the German Par
lament, June ID, the Federal Commits
sary, Friedberg, declared that the law
was but provisional, and necessitated by
the dangerous opposition of the Order
of Jesus to the State. The measure was
not in antagonism to the Roman Catho-
lie Church, and the Order of Jesus must
not, in any way, be identified with that
creed. The Federal Commissnry desig-
mated rs kindred societies the Ligorians
and the Frers Ignorantins, as well as two
Orders of School-fellows, which were re.
spectively under the French and Roman
authority. In the course Of the debate,
Privy Councillor Wagner pointed out
that it was not Prussia, but the Roman
Catholic Church that had originated the
quarrel. The ruling party in that church
was tampering with German unity and
religious peace. The Jesnits were in
league with foreign powers against Ger.
many. According to diplomatic reports
the Frenuh Jesuits were forming Ro.
man Catholic league in France, Italy,
Austria and Germany, and promoting
fanaticism among the lower classes,
trades unions and societies. i part oi
the German Jesuits had been won over
to this plan, and all such projects mus,
be opposed.

WHAT THE RELIGIOUS PRESS SAYS.-
The Golden. Age Theodore Tilton) di-
lates upon what it calls 1.-The Successful
Failure at Philadelphia" and draws a
parallel ''between the two Republican
parties" to use its own phraseology.
Says the Golden Age:
Cincinnati, fresh from the people,
initiated long needed movement of re-
form; Philadelphia, drawing its breath
from the public offices, clnmored like
claquers in theatre for continuance Of
the Administration and the re-appoint.
ment of its $4,000 paid stipendiaries.
Cincinnati declared for the one-term
principle; Philadelphia was ns hushed rs
the grave concerning this central and
main-spricg measure of civil service re-
form. Cincinnati demanded that our
foreign policy should ask for nothing
that was not right, and submit to no.
thing that was wrong; Philadelphia, for.
getting this maxim Of Jackson, connived
at the Alabama surrender, and gave this
ignominy the name Of honor. Cincin-
natl protested against olevating the mill
tary over the civil law; Philadelphia en-
tertained itself with picture of Grant
on horseback, as typical Of the admins.

power. Cincinnati denounced the abuses
which the Government has feared to in.
vestigate; Philadelphia was pre-ar-
ranged mechanism, snbordinating the in
dividual freedom of its delegates to
affect unanimity which did not exist,
by an enginery which itself was one of
the chief abuses of which the Admins
tration has been guilty. Cincinnati was
for universal amnesty; Philadelphia was
for limiting this clemenoy. Cincinnati
denounced the distribution of public
offices among persons who had given
gifts to the President; Philadelphia off,
cially represented these givers and re-
ceivers. Cincinnati denounced nepo-
tism; Philadelphia bandaged its eyes
into blindness to it.. Cincinnati indicted
the President as violator OF law;
Philadelphia gave syoophant's compli-
mont to his practical wisdom. Cinoin.

SOUTHERN SECURITIES MORE ACTIVE. -
The New York Herald, OF Wednesday, in
it's money article, says:
The Southern State bonds were more
active, with. in several features, @ consi-
derable improvement. Parties from the
South say that the crops of cotton, wheat
and corn will prove unusually large this
foil. and that more prosperous condi-
ton exists generally in the Southern
States. At the same time, a hope is
entertained that the expected coalition
between the Liberals and Democrats will
restore the State administrations to the
Democratic party, in view of which the
so-called old bonds of the Southern
States will be certain to be most gene
rously treated in all financial legislation.
The first indication of this state of feel
ing was given in the old North Carroll
mas, which advanced about two per cent.
in two days dealings, closing strong at
35936. The reaction in the new South
Carolinas continued. and the July issues
sold at 3lH. but were subsequently Of

A YouNa LADY BURNED TO DEATH
We learn that a young lady, about fifteen
years of age, the daughter of Mr.. John
Faulkenbury, OF this County, was 30 Sc.
,yere!y burnt few days ago, that she
lived but short time. She went to q
neighbors house for fire, and on her re-
turn, by some means, her clothes caught,
and all efforts to put out the blaze
proved Ineffective. A Younger sister
finally came to her rescue, but not until
the sufferer was so seriously burned as to
result in her death.-Lancaster Ledger.
Mrs. Mary Jane Il. Bishop, a wealthy
widow lady, about fifty years Of age, died
suddenly in New York. on the 26th.

is combination to glorify, enrich and
