"the nesh;r but he is persuaded that tho
spirit of the lost cause still lives, and can
never DC subdued.
A pretty broad hint suggested to Mr.. Wig
fall at last that "his sentiments were not
"relished.n Probably they were not. For the
Southern people have got very far beyond
Wigfall. They know, if he does not that the
war has settled certain questions forever, and
that tho lost cause will never again arise
Thoy know that their only hope now is in the
cultivation of cordial and brOtherly relations
with the North which was once their enemy,
and with the negroes who were once their
slaves. They have learned something by bit
ter experience; tDd tho wisest Of them are
almost ready to admit that the overthrow OF
Slavery was a blessing cheaply purchased
even Mt the cost of war. There is no place
for The old Gre-caters in the new South.
They must stop clanking their ghostly chains,
and 20 quietly back TO their graycyards.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1873-06-24
The changes on the Chicago and Alton road
are represented by the following table for inst
class freights /:

These changes will not only provo disld-
vantageOus to the farmers, but they will prob
ably work great injury to the commerce OF
Chicago. For example, an important trade
centers at Quincy, on the Illinois side OF the
Mississippi River, and Chicago and st. Louis
have been competitors for it. Hitherto it has
gone to Chicago over the Burlington road;
but the Burlington road must now raise its
through rates, or else carry the intermediate
traffic at loss, which it cannot afford to do
and the Quincy trade will consequently be di'
verted to st. Louis. Indeed it is almost inn
possible to fOresee the commercial deranGc-
ments and shiftings of business which this law
may involve, if it remain long enough
ON the statute book. At first view it
seems to be ingeniOusly calculated to
iniure the farmers, tho merchants, and
certain of the railroads alike Wherever there
are two routes between given points, the
shorter must be favored at the expense OF the
other, even though there may be no difference
in the running time and it will probably be
found IN practice that the greater the number
of way stations on line, the higher will be
the rates between terminal points. law
that sets all the principles of commerce at
defiance must soon work its own repeal.
We have already explained that a freight
law in Illinois Will not regulate the cost of
transportation TO New-YOrk or Buffalo. To
give the scheme effect there must be a SINH
lar law in every State through which the farm
er's produce passes on its way from the
farm TO the seaboard. That is what the Gran
gers are now trying to get. If they succeed
what will be the resultA Why, the tariff
on q bushel of wheat from Iowa to the
Atlantic will be fixed, not by estimat-
ing the cost of transportation for the whole
distance, but by taking the sum Of City or
q hundred local tariffs on wheat, from
one roadside station TO another. For instance,
the Chicago, Burlington, and Quincy road
charges, under the new tariff, 1850 cents for
transporting 100 pounds of wheat 100 miles
The cost of transporting the same quantity ut
the same rate from central Iowa to New-York
would be about 81 81, or 81 40 bushcl-just
double the present price. This would shut
out large part of the grain district alto
gether from the Eastern market and bring
the farmers and the Western railroads to q
common and speedy ruin. Evidently the West
has not solved the transportation problem yet.

weighers were surveying land; men just
appointed to place were removed 80 quickly
that their heads swan; Mr.. Casey went back
to New Orleans, in spite of his sins and his
resignation and, TO crown all, from the rum
wrought by this rampant giant were dragged
out the wounded forms Of Mr.. George William
Curtis and the entire Advisory Board-all
badly damaged Then there came lucid in
teryal.
The Appointing Power, well knowing that
nothing but rules which it may or may not
choose to regard keeps it from doing things
which shock public opinion, is once more
crying out for somebody to restrain 1t. IL
feels the fit coming on again. 1t has an ire
sistible inclination TO turn out a score or two
OF foreign consuls IN order to make room for
the Presidents personal Southern friends;"
it has tasted blood in Massachusetts and wants
to appoint some more of Gen. Buffers sup
pOrtcrs, without regard to consequences.
Warned in time, it calls in the learned doc
tors and the stalwaFt keepers. The net
of strong cords is ready once more.
We recognize in the new Civil Ser
vice rules all of the paraphernalia which
the diplomatic Mr.. Curtis and honest
Mr.. Medill found 30 fragile in the hands of
tho strong man armed. The fit is coming
on again but there are the groupings and
the examiners, promotions, grades and tech
nical classifcations. The Appointing Power
is not sure of itself for o single day; but
tbora ara fhe igotbermol lines the yulOar
fractions done into decimas, the staple pro-
ducts of the Danubian Principalities and our
old friends, tho principal lake ports. Per
haps these things may hold the mailman when
he rises once more in his wrath. Perhaps they
will not We shall see, as Father Richie
used to say.

of Butler to be personal disgrace. But a
great majority of these are so under the inhu-
ence of blind and unreasoning parilsanslip
that. sooner than vote for respectable candi-
date of any other party they would swallow
their disgust and accept the regular nomlna-
tion. We do not believe Mr.. Butler can be
elected. Even if we did, we should
os we have said, be quite content to
see even that. For really he could 90 no
great harm as Governor of Massachusetts,
while he would offer such an illustration OF
the results of partisanship, and would so
exhibit the tendencies of the time, thas the
whole country could not help profitng by The
great moral lesson of it. 1t would be such
sort of fitting elimination kind OF putting
on the cap stone; and best of all, it would
signalize the close of a political epoch.

SNlfNER UEIDLAND.

We observe that the "oilicial draught OF
Can't. Halls explorations in the Polaris, rs
prepared in the Signal Bureau at Washington
and published in the papers of that city, con-
tains an error calculated to obscure the truth
of history, the more so as the error OF the
man is corroborated by a similar mlsstate-
mcnt contained in the body of the report
signed by the Secretary of the Navy ana inc
gentlemen whom he associated with him IN
his examination of the rescued portion OF the
Poariia crew.
The cror to which we refer is the misno-
mcr assigned to "the high, bold, and noble
" hcadland" described by Capt. Hall in. his
dispatch under date of Oct. 20, 1871, in which
ho writes: 81 have named it Sumner Head
Gland, after the Hon. Charles Sumner, the
orator aud United States Senator" In the
Washin ston maps, purporting to be copied
from the official dmught, this headland Is put
down under the name of Summer Head
"land,n and in the body Of the report above
indicated this Same mis,tatcment is imbedded
in c;rcumstantial description of Capt. Halls
explorations. In that description we find the
following paragraph: "ln the progress OF
ate journcy-unhappily the last that Capt.
" Hall was to mae toward the POle-he dis
" covered, ns appears by his dispatch,
river, a lake. and u large inlet; the latter,
in latitude 80 81 north, no named New
"man'5 Bay, calling its northern point Cape
Breyoort and the southern one Summer
"Hcadland.n
Nor is this the only passage in which the
miSnomcr occurs. 1t is uniformly repeated
throughout the report. The official map and
text are, therefore, at equal variance with
ruth Oh this point; and whether the blunder
result from carelessness or a still moro culpa-
Die design on the part of somebody at Wash
ington TO rob Mr.. Sumner Of the distinction
intended for him by Capt. Hall, it should not
be allowed to creep into the geography and
history of Arctic exploration. Such perver-
sion of truth would be the more unjust be-
cause Senator Sumner was the foremost patron
of Capt Halls expedition in Congress- and
we chance b know that, in recognition of this
fact, the Captain announced his purpose, be-
fore setting out on his voyage, to write the
name of the great Massachusetts, Senator on
some high point under the North Star. On all
grounds, therefore, this blunder is unlucky,
while if it result from petty aftor-malice to-
wards Il statesman who is no longer numbered
among the "KinSs friends" we can only say
that Che power of meanne5s could no further

4 VOICE FROM THE GRAVE

Ex-senator Wigfall made q speech the other
day in Baltimore. 1t was great while since
this vehement and indomitable person had
lifted up his voice in any public place, and
we dare be sworn that to most of his audience
he came us one from the dead-a half familiar
shade whose very existence had been long
forgotten. We don't know where Mr. Wigfall
has been all these years; we can fancy that
when the Confederacy collapsed lie may have
gone to bed in disgust and refused to get up
again. Evidently he has been far away from
the haunts of men. He knows nothing of the
great political and social changes which
have transformed half the country. He
takes up the course of history Just
where he dropped it eight years
ago. In his eyes the world stopped moving
when Wigfall stopped speaking. The old doc
trines of State sovereignty, tho old defenses
of Southern Slavery, the old vindication of the
inalenable right of every freedom planter to
wallop his own niggers and sell his own mu-
latto chldren,-how the echoes Of all these for
gotten things come back to us when Mr.. Wig
falls rhetoric again disturbs the air Bat
Wigfall believes in them now as firmly rs
ever He has slept through the mOmentous
interval which witnessed their destruction. He
fances that cotton is still king and whip

ment. lie wears "manacles which eat into

PRO RATA FREIGHTS.

The railroads in Illinois are revising ther
freight tariffs to comply with the provisions
of the new law which goes into effect on the
first of July. They are required, as our read
ers know, to establish strict pro rata
schedule, to give no preference to through
over local business or to wholesale over retail
shippers, to make no distinction between
competing and nOn-competing points, to
charge under all circumstances higher rae
for going ten miles than for going five. They
are compelled, after establishing certain rate
from the starting point to the hrst
station on the road, to fix a different
and higher rate for each subsequent
station, without any regard to the peculiar
demands of trade or the circumstances which
make it possible for a company TO do business
much cheaper at one point than another. The
effect of such an innexible and dcspotlc RUE
is of course just now an interesting subject OF
speculation. 1t seems to be understood, how
ever, that most of the farmers will have 10
nay heavier tolls under the new law than IN
der the old, or else the railroads must lose
money. On the Chicago and Rock Island road,
for instance, the old and new rates per humid
red pounds for first class merchandise com

who possesses very jealous, mi'anthropic, and
withal romantic temperament. The other day, this

druggists for bottle of cold poison. The excel

Oh what it is to be lawyers clerk! Owing to
the acuteness learned in this nigh position young
Engishman has been actually enabled to escape IN
scathed from that dangerous affair, breach of
promise suit. He had paid his addresses chiefly by
letter. and in the most tender aud poetic strain, to a
pretty girl, who, when his affection grew less, was
too prudent and energetic not to demand golden
comfort for her wounded heart. Her lawyer heard
her case with pleasant anticipations of damages !;
but alas when he examined the love-letters Of the
lawyers clerk he found his client was put by them
entirely out of court. The ingenious young man
had invariably signed himself. Believe me, my
own dearest divinost. Quickest Angelina your fond

The legal phrase, which the gentle Angelina didn't
understand, had saved him.

Fires in many different parts of the country
form a notable feature of the news to-day. In
wo or three instances many horses have been
burned, fifty being destroyed by one fire in
Buffalo This is the season for forest burn
ings, the protracted drouth preparing the
way for rapidly moving flames which are not
usually common until later in the Summer.
Even in this city the smell and film of smoke

1t is a pity that the area Of rain cannot be
extended or else more evenly distributed. A
TRIBUNE correspondent reports that Excess
sively wet weather has damaged and dimin-
ished the sugar and cotton crops Of the South
West. East of the Blue Ridge, ON the other
hand, there is severe drOuth, and the pros
poets for an average harvest of the local
staples are gloomy. This is not an unusual
state of things; and it is hoped that the late
showers may ehave miGgated tho dryness
which prevails in this region. Reports, how
ever do not.indicate much of a rain fall.
