the results Of tho great moral victory it has
gained over the mutinous organization Of the
shareholders of Cuba, by submitting in future
to the threats of the Volunteers or the repre-
sensations of the Casino Espahol. We may
therefore be justified in expecting more
faithful execution of our own neutrality laws
upon this side, and in Madrid more serious
and energetic attempt than has yet been made
to carry into effect those schemes OF emanci-
patton and reform in the Antilles to which the
Government are personally and Officially
pledged.

confessed that although q reduction in the
price of coal is very desirable, the arguments
of the miners against any decrease in their

The Administration organs which so zeal
ously contradctod our statement of the resig-
nation of Gen. Sickles, are now busily en-
gagged in explaining why he resigned. The
public does not look to them for information
upon this subject, and as the matter is one OF
some interest, and the public welfare will
probably not suffer by publication OF the
correspondence in the case, we would suggest
that the State Department might as well give
it to tho press.

In the anxious inquiry after openings for
retrenchment some prying Congressman have
lighted on the luckless marines. These orna-
mental warriors cost the tidy sum of one mil

swell the amount to some additional thousands
1t is injuriously said that the marines are
relic of the old times when ships fought at
close range and musketeers were stationed
in the tops to pick off the enemy's
gunners. This is a tale to be told to credu-
lous marines perhaps; but the corps does
represent the fine old spirit of conservatism
which keeps up an organization long after it
has ceased to have any vital functions. The
Marine Corps has friends, however, as well as
easy places fer gentlemen of leisure. 1t will
not give up the ship without gallant struggle

Gov. Dix's judicial appointments deserve
high praise, and fairly illustrate the advan-
tages we have 80 often claimed for an ap-
pointed as against an elective Judiciary.
Judge johnson, who takes the place OF the
late Judge Peckham, commands the universal
respect of the bar. Prof Dwight of this city,
who succeeds Judge johnson on the Commits
sion of Appeals, needs no praise to any New
Yorker. Mr.. Countryman, who takes the place
of the late Judge Parker in the Supreme
Court has NO partisan qualifications for
hs Mace. but will be recognized by
the bar of the State as possessing every legal
requisite. Compare these with the system that
gave us Barnard, Cardozo. McCunn and their
comrades, and let us be grateful to Gov Dix
for the contrast

The false packing of cotton has grown
to be an evil of frequent practice of late
years, in the preparation of the staple for
the market. 1t is shame upon those
engaged in the culture of the State,
and every good citizen should make it his
special mission to expose and punish the
villainy. The subject has become of so
much Importance that the New Orleans
Cotton Exchange have deemed proper
to issue circular describing the injuries
resulting from the practice, and warning
against it. The following extract from
the circular is worthy of attention
The quantity of false and fraudulently
packed cotton shipped 10 this and we be-
ieve to nearly every other market in the
United States since the war, caused the
adoption of various devices for the thor
ough examination of every bale, and the
detection OF fraud has consequently been
reduced to almost certainty. These ex-
aminations- by means of boring, etc, are
made through the buyer, after purchase,
and entail much loss in weight. besides the
expense necessary to the employment of
comp etent inspecUors-a tax which is made
up by the reduced price at which the buyer
is enabled to execute his orders and. conse-
quently, really falls upon the producer
That considerable portion of the false
packed cotton i the result of carelessness
and ignorance, rather than deliberate in
tention To dcfraud. We are fully prepared TO
believe; but still so many evidences of the
latter have been made apparent within the
past twelve months, that a serious and de-
termned effort should be made by every
good man TO trown down and expose so in-
furious and criminal practice.
We call attention To the fact. that in the
criminal code of nearly every Southern
State. provisions are made for the punish
ment of those who falsely and fraudulently
pack cotton, so that not only does the pack
er lose heavily by detection, from the de-
probation in the value of his shipment (the
price being regulated by tine poorest
quality in the bale), but renders himself Ii
able to conviction tor felony and conse-
auent long Imprisonment.
We earnestly call upon each planter and
country merchant to aid in stopping this
injurious practice, not only by direct pro-
Ct edings, but by forwarding to this institu-
| ii IN with proofs, the particulars of every
case coming within his observation.

The Lesson of California.

The triumph of the Anti-Monopoly
or Peoples movement in California, at
its first venture in politics, looks (says
the St. Louis Republican, like marvel.
Both the old parties were in the field,
and both attempted to debar the new
movement from the fight. But it burst
into the conflict with the fierce vigor of
a popular uprising, and, without forming
an alliance with either of the old parties,
has beaten them both and made itself
master of the situation in California. A
success so wonderful and unexpected is
due partly to the inherent power of
the new movement itself and partly to
the decay of authority in the two old
parties. 1t shows that the people of
California of other States too-are
weary of both Republicanism and Bour-
bonism, and weary of the Snprohtable
struggle between them. They are ripe
for the advent of a new party with new
issues, and are ready to dissolve their
allegiance to the old parties whenever
the opportunity presents itself.

Amcs and his Two PROMISE, and
which he VIII Keep.

Gen. Ames was forced BY the pressure of
public opinion to declare against paying the
bonds. or go without his nomination. Only
two CT three weeks before the meeting of
the Radical State Convention. in this city.
being pressed upon he question. he openly
and VIGOROUSLY lodged il. We have heard
that delegation waited upon him but only
a few hOnrs before the nominations Were to
be IN ade for his final word on that subject
At the last moment, probably acting upon
the secret Instructions OF Ben. Butler. he
Welded, or pretended to yield. the purpose
the Boston ring Of speculators IN repudi-
ated bonds had in procuring his election for
Governor. To have stood out against the
delegation that waited on him would have
been to lose all opportunity of playing the
part assigned him by the bondholders.-
Meridian Mercury.
1t seems, then, that on bis electioneer-
ing tour for the nomination Ames de-
clined to give answer unequivocally how
he stood on the Bond question. In this
connection, it is worthy to remark that
his declarations on the subject in his
speech to the Rabble Convention accept
ing the nomination, were so indefinite,
that after he had concluded it, he was
sent back to the stand by his prompters
and made to re-explain his position. The
game of deception is so glazing that it
"glimmers in blind mans eye" The
election of Ames and his gang of adven-
turers means the mortgaging of the whole
property and labor of the State to the
Bond Ring.

Another Version of the Butler
Bond Inquiry.

A Washington special to the ST. Louis
Democrat says that the Interpretation
prevalent in that city of Buffers letter
inquiring after the so-called Mississippi
debt, is that Immediately after the re-as-
sembling of Congress the Beast intends
to introduce a bill providing for the as
sumption by the Federal Government of
the debts of the Confederate States-this
Repudiated Bond debt among others.
This explanation is said to be given by
''high official, who is said to be fully &C
quainted with Buffers plans" 1t will be
seen that no one doubts that Butler was
acting for the Bondholders in institnting
the investigation, and that motive to
secure the pretended claim induced him
to write the letter. The plan here men
toned would be infamous. 1t would be
to saddle on all the States the errors,
crimes, misfortunes or wrongs, as the
case may be, of part and to increase the
centralising tendency of the Federal Gov
eminent The Beast shrewdly suspects
that when that government assumed the
pretended debt of Mississippi it viii claim
the right to enforce with the bayonet its
payment by her people.

The ticket headed by Ames represents
a spirit of hostility to everything that
savors Of Southernism and of liberalism.
1t has an oder of intense exclusiveness.
1t strikes at every Northern man who is not
a carpet-bagger in the most odious sense
of the term. 1t was nominated to secure
AMI perpetuate the rule of alienism in
Mississippi through the colored voters.
Ames, the head of the ticket, is not
citizen, and is a fit representative of
this policy. In his testimony before the
Senate Committee appointed to investi-
gate his credentials, he declared in effect
that his becoming a citizen depended
upon his election to office. He came
into the State as an officer in the Federal
army after the war, and was subject to
be sent elsewhere by the order of his
superiors. He was elected to the Senate
on the pledge that he sought the place as
a stepping stone to promotion in the line
of his profession, by a Legislature which
he had brought into existence by the cor
rupt use of the bayonet; and not with
any view to its permanent occupation.
He has not resided in the State since he
reached the Senate by this trickery. In
the packed Convention he succeeded over
Governor Powers, not because the latter
was not Republican of the true faith,
but for the reason that he was believed to
entertain respect for the rights and SEN
sibilities of the Southern whites, and had
not devoted himself wholly to the dis
ruptable mission of fomenting strife be-
tween the races.
Who does not believe that Musgrove's
defeat was due more to the fact that he
retained competent and meritorious South
ern men in the clerical force of his office
than to any other course?
Who does not know that the decided
individuality of J. S. Morris as South
ern Republican, had as much to do with
his defeat for Attorney General than his
official connection with the issuance of
Warrants to the Ripley Railway Compa-
ny?
Who does not know that w. H. Vas
ser, whose integrity and capability as an
officer are so well approved that no man
has been found in the State to impeach
either, was not in favor with the conven-
ton because he is a Southern Republican
of talents and force of character?
Who does not know that Gov. Alcorn
himself is abhorred by the Ring that
ruled the Rabble Convention because he
is Mississippia, as wei as Republican,
whose interests must necessarily compel
him to oppose policy of organized strife
between the races and the plumber of all
classes of her people for the benefit of adj
venturers and spoilsmen?
For the reason that this spirit of pro-
scription and motive of cultivating and
perpetuating hostility among a people
who should cherish friendship and good
will towards each other, ruled the Ames
Convention, the good people of all
parties, creeds and colors are invoked to
make common crusade against the ticket
which it nominated.

The Platform of the IRabble
Convention.

So little consideration have we given
of the Convention that nomi-
mated the Ames ticket, that We
have not before the present number in
serted it In our columns. 1t was reported
by Prof. Walton, of the Mississippi Uni
versitv, and adopted by reclamation.
Two of the resolutions, however, demand
more attention than the others-the 9th
and the 18th. The first is reputation
of the act of the Legislature loaning the
School Trust Funds to the Railroads;
and the second is a committal In favor OF
mixed schools.
The 9TH resolution, on the subject of
the Repudiated Bonds, is matter OF
course. As pledge against taxing the
people to pay them it does not amount to
a puff of wind. The pledge of the Con-
vention will not bind the Legislature. II
will not weigh a straw against the infu-
ence of the Corruption Fund known to be
in the hands of the agents of the Bond
holding Ring to buy the purchasable
commodity which will control that body
in the event the Ames gang carry the
elections. The 9th resolution, in favor
of 'retrenchment," is no less a humbug
than the 7th. Who does not know that
nothing is further from the intention OF
the Adventures gang than the reduction
of expenditures? On the contrary, theil
whole policy in the future will be, as il
has been in the past. to levy taxes, con
fscate estates and grind the faces of the
moor
