The Reward Ofthe Hircling.

Thomas Jefferson Mackey, the scullion of
the Robbers, Scott & Co., has received his
reward. He has received and receipted for
his thirty pieces cf silver. Would it not be
blessing if he were 50 to carry out the role
of Judas, as to go and hang himself?
Mackey has been Scots ananucnsis and
adviser in preparing his Annual and special
messages to the Legislature, and doing such
ether duty work about the Executive kitch-
en-. and as reward for his faithfulness to
tho Robber Crew and his treachery to his
native State; has been given the Circuit
yudgeship for the 9th Circuit. Thomas, the
former incumbent, has been turned out to
make way for one still capable ofadminis-
tering justice. Mackey has not been admit
ted to the Bar longer than q twelvemonth
and knows no more about the science ofI4aw
than a Fcjee Islander does about Sturmis
them, and can no more administer justice,
than Scott can tell the truth, and although
he may not strive to hide "the brand Of the
convict under the guise of the impeachcr,"
he does endeavor to play the part Of a Solo
mon under the guise of the monkey and
demagogue.
Strange how strikingly alike the words
Mackey and monkey are. Tho similarity
gives some force to Darwins Theory on the
origin of the species.

R.uInOrS of War.

Our readers are doubtless aware that the
relations between the United States, and
Spain and Russia are anything bit friendly,
and that certain preparations arc going on,
which indicate the possibility Of war be-
tween this country and one or:bath Of those
above named.
The question naturally arises as to how
this country will be benefited by war with
either of them. Cuba, of course is the objec-
tive point to which the eyes of "Uncle Sam
uel'' are looking in reference to Spain, and
the large possessions oERussia to the North
Of the United States, known as Russian Amer
lea, are the objects as far as Russia is con
eerned.
Tho population of Spain Is, as nearly as
we can G. innate, 25,OOO,00O. She has
standingarmy of 100000, and navy Ct
one hundred and fifty vessels, carrying about
two hundred thousand marines and seanicn.
Some of these vessels are of the latest and
most improved kind. The population OF
Russia is about seventy million, she has
standing army of nearly million men, and
q navy of three hundred vessels of war, car
rying ten thousand guns, and armed by two
hundred and fifty thousand marines and
seamen. In her appointments aud equip
ments, both on land and sea, she rates with
the first, and is at this time, probably the
most powerful nation in the world.
The possessions of Russia in North Amer
sa are very considerable. On the Northwest
coast of the continent, they extend in length
about eleven hundred miles, with an average
breadth of about FIVE hundred, but the pop
ulation is very small, less than 100000
Should the United States engage in war
with either Spain or Russia.she would have
her Hands full, and the war would neccssari-
ly be confined in great measure to-. naval
combats in which she would be worsted; ;(for
the condition of her navy is very bad indecd,)
unless it should be war of invasion, in
which case the invading power would. have
vast odds to contend against. AS far as wc
can see, nothing commensurate with the loss
she would necessarily suffer could be gained
By war with either country, and it is GER
tain that we of the South, have no desire to
embark in such struggle after the bitter
experience of the past.
. The Grand Duke Alexis, so we learn, has
been ordered home by his papa, on account
of the fracture of Russian relations with the
United States, and the latter is exhibiting
considerable activity in repairing the various
dismembered forts along the southern coast.
It certainly seems as ifa speck of war, per-
haps no larger than mans hand, can be
seen on the horizon, and it may require but
little to blow up a great storm, which may
sweep with devastating force over many
peaceful, smiling: and happy portions of the
earth

EXPERIENCE in the use Of this Guano for
II the past six years in this State for cotton

In accordance with the established policy Of
the company to furnish the best concentrated
fertilizer at the lowest cost to consumers, this
Guano is put into market this season at the
above reduced price, which the company is en-
abled to do by reason of its large facilities and
the reduced cost Of manufacture.

and COMPOSITION is precisely the same as that

acre planted con be fertilized with two hundred
pounds Guano at cost not exceeding the pres
ent value of thirty pounds of cotton, while ex'
nerience has shown that under favorable condi'
lions of season and cultivation tho crop is in
