ANOTHER UNQUEsnoNED RIGHT.
Nobody questions your right to do
this. Nobody claims that q court
should issue mandamus to compel
you to invite a Northern man to
dine with you, or to compel you to
attend the funeral of his wife or
child. Southern men have an I'M,
questioned constitutional right to do
all these things, but they will exer-
else that right, if at all, in the alb
sence-or, at oil events, the exercise
OF this right will produce the absence
of all those who are possessed of
the pride and ambition which make
q man.

we will treat them as they deserve

Jay Gould's Movement.
From tho Chicago Tribune.


II is the matter of considerable 10
speculation why Mr.. Jay Gould
should withdraw from the field Of
his stock operations, and expend so
much of his valuable time in passing
over the G. and N. w. r. Il. On
Friday, President Tracy escorted him
in special car over the belt rail-
way, landing him at the Rock Island
depot. Next m orning two or three
of the Directors accompanied him to
Milwaukee. Sunday they spent a
mong the Lake Supiror iron mines,
returning to Green Bay yesterday.
He purposes going over the Madison
Division TO Devils Lake, and will
stop there.

Systematic. From his residence in
New York city telegraph wires run
to all the leading railroad Offices.
For weeks together he remains
closeted at home with bis secretary,
and, by telegraph, manipulates the
stock market. During his famous
run, on the Northwestern, last De-
cember, he was not seen once on the
street" Holding himself thus aloft

and act coolly. On this Western trip

Personally, Jay Gould has not
what Carlyle terms God~like phys
ique." He is diminutive in stature,
recalling Col. Jim Fisk's laconic des-
cription:-"Gould is three feet high;
two feet head, one foot body, and no
legs" In complexion he is very
dark, has a full beard, is modest and
retiring in manner, talks but little,
and looks like cross between q
saxonized Jew and an ordinary dry
goods clerk. He is perhaps 80 years
of age, has wife and four children

A CASE IN POINT.

One instance illustrates what |
mean. A friend of mine in WISDOM
sin-a man of intellectual capacity,
great personal energy; a man of
wealth, with an accomplished wife
and two refined and educated daugh-
ters-took it into his head q few
years ago to come South and raise
cotton. He came to the state OF
Louisiana and rented two planta-
tions. For one he payed $4,000 and
for the other $1,000 annual rent
He employed 800 negroes, raised his
crop, paid his laberers, paldshis rent;
but one year was enough for him.
Ne had been in the habit of being
treated like q gentleman his lady
bad been in the habit of making and
receiving calls, His daughters had
been in the habit of mingling in So
eiety, but during the long year of
his residence in Louisiana hardly q
white man crossed his threshold.
Do you suppose there is money
enough to be made by raising cotton
to induce such a gentleman to come
here and endure this2 He left for
his own home in the North, where,
if he could not raise cotton, he could
be regarded as man, and this fami.
ly could enjoy the civilities and
courtesies that belong to refined
life.
Let me repeat, you have undoubt-
eddy been sorely tried with some
very bad specimens of Northern
men, but it is an error to suppose
that all the North bears any resem-
blanee to the worse men that come
from it. There are brave men and
beautiful and accomplished women
in the North. The northern people
have all the impulses and emotions
that glorify human nature. They
have intelligence; they have ener-

er, entered the room and advanced toward
Manning, armed with cooper's -broad-axe,
exclaiming, "Damn you, 1 will kill you"
The deputy drew his revolver and ordered
the man to leave the room, ut the same time
threatening to shoot him If he did not obey.
Simpson continued to advance, springing
from side to side to avoid the pistol, when
MIR. st. Johns seized chair and struck him,
which, however, failed to prevent his ad-
vance. Recovering from the blow, the pri-
soner rushed at the deputy, who fired first
shot, followed by two others.
Mastering his failing strength, Simpson
threw the axe with all his force, which rar-
rowly escaped the deputy's head, and then
fell AS he fell the deputy fired a fourth
shot. The second was fatal, as was after
wards ascertained. No motive for the act
is known, except that the prisoner had once
escaped, and had an idea the deputy had
something to do with his recapture. A core
per's jury exonerated Manning.
