ABOUT WASHING MACHINES

The Indianapolis Journal, the Republi-
can organ at the Capital of Indiana, has
this paragraph:
"Anent patent washing machines the
Louisville Courier Journal says: THE best
washing machine we ever saw was invented
thousands Of years ago, and sold before the
late war for eight or nine hundred dollars;
but one of Lincoln's procamations broke
the handspring of it, and it has been rather
a worthless piece Of machinery ever since
On the contrary the machine referred to by
the c. j. is better than ever. So far from
breaking its handspring, Lincoln's procla-
nation gave it just that very thing, and
since that time the machine has developed
a degree of intelligence quite startling to
the world. Before the war the machine
was owned and control led by few lazy
NOR opolists, but now it has set up for itself
and is doing fine business on its own &C.
count" rH.
That may sound very prettily in Indiana,
and may be gulped down Gas gospel
truth" by the Hoosiers, but here in Ten
nesseee and in other States South of Jus,
where we have indubitsble evidence as to
how these "wsshing machines" are con-
Quoting themselves, it cannot be regarded
otherwise than as the veriest bosh. II
our Indiana contemporary should travel
Though the South little he would soon
find the romance taken out Of this "wssh-
ing machine" business.

SEWERS.

Cincinnati has finished thirty-three miles
of sewers at a great cost, and is now en-
tertaned with a proposition to compel
every householder'on the lines of the sewer:
to connect with them, at an additional cost
of about one million of dollars. The fol-
lowing paragraph from New York journal
on this point might be worth consideration,
especially as we arc discussing the project
of inaugurating a system of sewerage and
drainage in this city:
"What are the facts in regard to sewer
age, drainage, and the public streets? In
England and in this country individuals
have been forced by statutes to connect
their houses with The street sewers, which
generally discharge their contents, more or
less directly, into running streams. This,
1t was claimed, was necessary to preserve
The healths of towns and cities. Both In
England and in the United States, it is now
asserted that the communication of houses
with the street sewers almost invariably
leads TO the influx into the houses of the
foul air of the sewers, to the great detri
-ment of the health of the occupants, whilst
the wssteful discharge Of the contents of
the sewers (Which if collected in proper
places aud returned to the land as fertilizers
would be of immense value) renders the
water of the streams unfit for household
purposes, and often destroys the fish which
formerly abounded in them.
Let us get all the light we can, and be
sure to begin right when we do begin"

DEAD UNIFICATION.

In an editorial on the failure of the unif-
cation movement in Louisisns, the New
Orleans Picdyluae says of the negro leaders
of that State: "Their declaration is this,
and nothing else: I'VE are citizens, gentle
men, equal under the Constitution and the
laws; but we are not satisfied; you must be
Inundated, degraded, or we shall not feel
safe; it is easier for you to come down to
our standard than it is for Us to work Up TO
yours; at any rate, we have you on the rack,
and we'll still turn the screw We are
sorry indeed that these representative
meu' of the negro should have SO wanton-
ly and effectively killed the. unifcation
movement: but they have done it, and the
funeral is theirs"
A Massachusetts Republican, who spent
three months of the winter land spring in
the South seems to have studied the negro
character to some purpose. In letter to
the Boston Advertiser, he says: ..
SIT may seem singular that the coIOred

his family, his money, and all his temporal
concerns, except his politics. He won't
vote with the white man because, like the
Indian, he worships the great father at
Washington and minds the orders of his
political league. Gradually and surely these
oppressed people are finding cut, amid their
weary search for true friends, that the poll
ticians who have settled among them aon
the make" are not the wisest and best Of
guides. There is no hostility-at least the
writer has never seen any-between the
former masters and their former slaves. The
blacks go to these men for advice; they even,
in many instances, support their old mas
tiers or mistresses who have been stripped of
their all by the war. I know the leading
gentlemen of Charleston, old and young, are
studying the problems Of race aud govern
ment with an earnest de.ire for the welfare of
its blacks. They feel that their own prosperi-
ty, for veal or woe, is indissolubly bound up
with that the colOred race, and that that
race must be educlted and trained to citi
szenship. The general satisfaction with the
colored polica of Charleston, and the favor.
able comments from old residents, are o
proof that ofthe whites are willing and anx-
ious to have the colored people do whatever
they can do well. To make Judges, Adju-
tant and Major Generals, State and Con-
gressional Legislators of them in their pres
ent ignorance, and In league with bad
whites from the North, is simply reducing
society and government to chaos, and crea-
ting state of things which augnrs no good
for the colored race"
81 Here We have the story told truthfully.
The negroes will not vote with the white
people of the South, and are doing all they
can to establish black mans party, which
is sure to be met by counter organization
of white men. The course the negroes are
pursuing is leading inevitably to this result,
aud it will come sooner or later unless there
is a change in their policy.

THE Athens Post forecasts the future
political situation thus: "Hon. Horace
Maynard, if he lives and keeps his health,
will be the Republican candidate for Gov
ernor of Tennessee in 1874. This may be
news even to many members of that party,
but our information is direct and positive.
1t is not only settled that he is to be the
candidate, but what is still more strange,
those most prominently connected with the
movement assume that he will be elected.
Judge Houk expects to go to Congress, and
will be a lively contestant for the next race
in the Second District. He will find right
smart brush in his way when the time
comes, but, as he possesses the two great
elements of popular success-cheek and
gab-he may win. We wish him well-as
we do all our fri ends who have the misfor
tune to be on the wicked and more vicious
side of politics"

THE SALARY GRAB AND OTHER
- SINS.

I
The Sandusky (Ohi') Register is goot
Republican journal, but it is growing "dis
loyal" aud is disposed to talk out about the
wicked men of its party. For instance il
says.
"The Republican members of Congress
could have voted down the increase of Sala-
~ bill; Republican President could have
vetoed the bill after it had been passed by a
corrupt Conrgess, and Republican Admin:
is tration could have kept its hand eff the
Louisiana disgrace and lett the responsible
ty # dealing with the corrupt factions of
New Orleans with the people of that State.
Let US clean our own stahles; let Us
frankly admit our own fanlts, and teach our
enemies that much as we love the Repub-
lican party and its PRINCIPLES, no false sepse
OF duty will prevent US from seeing our
selves IS others see us, and as we are"
Touching the salary grab, the Cincinnati
Enquirer says every one knows that had it
not been for Grant the salary bill could not
have become law, and he boldly assumes
the responsibility. Butler introduced the
salary bill in the House, and finally fought
1t through, and Grant has given him con-
troll of The Feneral patronage in Massachu-
sets, and is trying to make him Governor
of that State. Bingham reported the sal
airy bill to the House "With the recommend
alton that it do pass,' ard Grant has made
Bingham Minister to Japan with salary
ofs1S500 year. Under the law of Grant
a member of Congress may draw from the
Treasury s6,250 before Congress meets, and
resign without even taking the oath of Of
fee, while be has received SC, 250 for doipg
nothing. This fore-pay is funny feature
of Grants salary law. But funnier fea-
ture to increase the pay of Congress
one. half when its lsbOrs had been just re-
duced one-third.

A HEAVY and sudden increase in the
mortality among children has taken place
in New York and Brooklyn. In the latter
city, out of three hundred and seventy-six
deaths, two hundred and eighty-fvo were
those of children under five years of age.
In New York an official investigation has
been made of the subject, ard shows that
cholera moIbus, cholera infsntum, diarrh9a,
scarlet fever and other diseases, incident to
crowded tenements and filthy alleys and
streets, have become frightfully prevalent.
What is true of these cities is also true of
other cities to a greater or less extent. The
children need more pure fresh air.
