the Southern side ought now to be
excepted on that account from
the General Amnesty. 1t has been
alleged as aground Of exception, that
the officers had taken an oath to serve
the United States, but thousands Of
others who did 80 in other capacities,
are now amnestied. Ii is. too, very
easy to suppose that Southern off.
GERS may have concientiously believed
that it was no longer the United
States" when their native State "se-
osded." That was the current opin-
ion at the South, as everybody knows.
But apart from this. the now univer-
sally recognized principle is that res
ignation and acceptance ends the mil
itary obligation, and this was strenu-
ously maintained by the American
Government in the Revolution, when
its officer, General Charles Lee, an
e1-British officer, was captured and
threatened by the British.
As to the Southern members Of
Congress, did anybody want them to
stay and vote in Congress, perhaps
against necessary war measures, when
their States had seeded and cancell'
ed their powers?
We think then there is grave
moral objection to this partial amnes,
ty but since it does remove political
disabilities from many American cit
izens let Mr.. Greeley have full cred
it for it. 1t is stealing his thunder
to credit the administration party fol
what he has forced them tardily and
reluctantly to yield.

To which the american Nevspa-
per Reporter adds more at length:
"The above truth should becopied
and recepied in every country paper,
until the trouble is abated. The pub.
fisher Of a newspaper, depending as
he does, in a measure, upon his SUBJ
scription list for support, naturally
expects each family who desire to
read his paper to subscribe for it, if
they can affordit. Subscribers them
selves, as well as publishers, find the
newspaper borrower a frst-class qui-
sance, for he.often borrows it as the
owner is about to readit,, retains it at
certain times when he misses it,, and
too often, if he returns it at all, j, the
paper is in such a condition that no
one of nice sensibilities would care to
read II. We would suggest that in
towns where the nuisance has be-
come intolerable, the publisher print,
when requested, or stamp in large
letters above the heading, "Subscri-
bers not permitted to lend thispaper,"
Or, "This edition not for borrowers"
The idea would take with subscri-
bers and prove agentle hint to the

While it cost Ohio only $4,000 to
run its whole government and legis-
lative expenses for 1871, it required
the enormous sum Of nearly half a
million to misgovern and outrage
South Carolina curing the same pc
riod. The new furniture for the
scalawag Scott's executive residence
cost that carpet--vagabond- cursed
commonwealth, the princely sum Of
nearly 100000. This is a tolerable
picture of what Grantism has done
for the States, and it presses the con-
viction that if the damnsble oonclave

Cotton "Futures."

A New York cotton dealer, in a
letter noticing the effect Of the estab-
lishment Of the Cotton Exchange Of
thss city ip developing the business
in cotton for future delivery, which
has now attained such vast propor-
tions, takes occasion to give to the
planters of the South a bitof whole
some and timely advice. He says:
Whether this new departure is to
ultimately benefit the planter, the
factor, the dealer, or the spinner, is
still riddle; and if either is to be
more directly the gamer than the
other by as complete a metamorpho-
BIB as this new system of future con-
tracts has created, no one class thus
far is given the credit Of prominent
favoritism. 1t is generally admitted
by all in interest that the marketing
Of cotton for delivery far into the fu-
ture by the planter is, and is TO be

Narrow Gauge Railroads.

On the nineteenth of June delegates
representing all the narrow gauge
railroad companies in the United
States will assemble in convention at
St. Louis. This assemblage will, it
is said, be composed Of some Of the
most eminent civil engineers and rail:
road builders Of the country, and
many important results are anticipa.
ted from its deliberations. These will
probably be a thorough discussion Of
the respectivemerits ofthe narrow and
broad gauge railway systems, Of the
difference in the cost of construction,
operating and keeping them in repair {;
the freight capacity Of the new sys
tenn, and its safety and accommoda-
ton for passenger traffic !; and what
general plan ought to be adopted in
It's construction and management, to
render it successful. All these are
important and interesting questions.
The advantages claimed for the
narrow gauge system rest upon the
general principle that, with sufficient
width OF tract for safety and speed
all further increase Of width renders
imperative an increase in the weight
of engines and cars in greater pre-
portion than it increases capacity, OF
In. other words, the /" dead weight" OF
train increases with the width Of
the track. The friends of the. mar. nal!
row gauge system assert that their
roads can be- built and equipped at g
cost not exceeding one-half that Of
the broad gauge; that they earn as
much money per mile as the latter.
