The AIR L1NE.-J. o. Hudnut, ESQ.
OF the Air Line Railroad office, who has
been on official business to Richmond,
Va, has returned. From him We learn
that the track will be laid over Pacolet
bridge on Friday next, which will give
better accsss to the trestia over Big
Thickety, located between the former
point and Charlotte. Upon the comple-
ton OF the work at these places, the cars
will run to South Tiger. the only i'm
portant construction between Spartan
burg and Greenville. Mr.. Hudnut is
confident that the cars will be running
through from Charlotte to Greonville by
the 18th March, with tho exception OF
South Tiger, as the contractors are pre-.
pared to get through by that time, no
matter how the weather may be. The
bridge over Saluda River, on the West
aide OF Greenville, has been completed,
and construction trains now run to
Georges Creek, in Pickens County, and
track-laying is going rapidly forward.

"The final passage OF the bill in regard

PEOPLE who growl and complain
that the twelve hundred soldiers in

diately exterrnlnate the miserable Mo-
does-scalp the men and bury the
squaws and pappooses-shouid read
the following facts in regard to the
position of the. savages, condensed
In the Cincinnati Enquirer:
The Modoc country isl vast and al
most impregnable retreat, covering
one hundr ed miles in length by thirty
in breadth. The Indian camp is vast
hasin,, filled with ravipes and caverns
and cliffs, and surrounded with walls
one hundred feet high. A single man
intrenched there is worth hundred
outside. Sixty savages skulking be-
hind rocks, hiding in ravines, unseen
in their Gibralter-like fortress, are
able to withstand u greater host than
that which slaughtered the three hum
dred Spartans at Thermopyle. But
the lessons OF Bloody Brook, i'll Mass
achusetts; of the Miami Valley, in
1871, when 1,400 men were cut To
pieces, and OF Braddock's defeat in
l755, have all been forgotten or ig-

THERE are not quite S3JS, 100000 of
legai-tenders outstanding. They have
been outstanding since 1862 without
Interest. Suppose that they had been
in. bonds, as many now desire, how
would the account have stood We
should have paid, in the meantime,
S2I4SO0.000 gold in interest, part OF
the time when it was Two and almost
three TO one, and the debt would still
be 10 pay. This shows the advantage e
of 1egal-tender On little bonds held by
the mass of the people, over the big
bonds held by few capitalists. These
little bonds can be kept out without
interest, and never be paid in specie
until the day of Judgment they serv-
ing the purposes OF circulation-and
nobody would complain about it. The
question: arises, why are the authori-
lies at Washington so anxious to pay
what they call The legal tenders debt
by issuing bonds bearing interest in
its place? About one-sixth of our
debt is in legal-tenders. We could
just as well have had one-third-yes,
one-half-of it i'll legal-tenders, and
thus been saving S30,000,0O0 to $40.-
100000 every year to the taxpayers.
Ii we had had honest men at the head
of the Government, that would have
been their policy.

Garfield's AIisstetements.

A Washington special says: Gen.
eral Garfield's letter of The 21st OF
April, excusing his vote Oh the salary
question, is exciting surprise by it's
gross misstatements OF facts. lie
says that if the Senate had stricken
out the salary amendment they could
have compelled the Ho use to abandon
it, the fact being chat the Senate did
noncohcur in the salary amendment
by more than 50 10 9.
General Galtield's statement that he
was the only one of the Conference
Committee who voted to strike out
the retroactive feature is positively
untrue, and is directly contradicteG
by the letter OH the same subject from
Senator Bayard, who was a member
of this Conference Committee.

DEATH OF Ex-CoNGREssMAN Brooks,
The dispatches of Thursday morn
ing announced, the death of Hon.
James Brooks, f'New Y York. He
died at his residence in Washington,
Wednesday evening, April Both, in
the. presenceofahis family. He rec
ognized those around him till the very
last moment. His disease was pro-
nonnced to be cancer of the stomach.
He was in his 62d year.. 49, I...;
Mr.. Brooks was born in Portland,
in 1910. He became in 1886, associate
editor of the, New York Erpress,. his
brother Erastusr being editor-in- chief.
He was elected to Congress in 1913,
and has served several terms at differ
ent periods since. He was a member
of the last Congress, and had the ex-
ceptional honor of being selected with
Oakes Ames to be the 2scapegoat of
the Credit Mobiiier iniqaity. He has
always been regarded as one of the
shrewdest politicians of the country.
As an editor he was in the front rank
of his profession. Politically he has
not been the most consistent. In 1855
and 1856 he was a Knownothing, and
received "a nickname which continued
to be thrown at him through life of
Booby Brooks. When the Know
nothing party was broken up Mr..
Brooks Joined the Democrats, and has
since acted with that party. New
York mourns for him as her adopted
son. He was a true type of her en-
terprise and greatness. All parties
express deep regret at his death. He
is supposed to leave "a large estate
The Ecpress in which he was largely
interested, is one of the flourishing

THE Presidents friends defend him
from censure' for signing the bill for
an increase of salaries, because sit was
tackled on 70 the general appropriation
bill, and hc could not have defeated it
without stopping the whole machin-
cry of Government supplies" 1t will
occur to men of ordinary Judgment
that If this plea is II good one for Mr..
Grant, it is as good for every man
~ ho voted for the bill and the Rad
icals must either give up Grant or
abandon their censure of other people.
The idea of stopping the Government
supplies is all bosh, for the House,
which had an enormous Radical ma
jority, could have concurred in the
senate amendment striking out the
whole increase.

STEEL TOOTH HARROW /!

Last season / sold this Har-
row with 10 inch teeth They
gave good satisfaction where
the ground was free from
stone, but on ground having
some stone, as many of our
farms have, the teeth were
found to be too light. This
season L have them with
heavier teeth, and have no
doubt of their working to en-
tire satisfaction. The teeth
are round tempered steel;
owing to the shape and back
ward slant Of the teeth, there
is no useless friction, and the
draft is much less than the
common Harrow. 1t will

SOME time ago negro named Gra-
ham, brought an action before U. S.
Commissioners Halliday, at Cincinnati
against the School Directors of Dis
trict No. 10, Pierce Township. Cler-
mont county, Ohio, for refusing to
receive the children of complainant
into the public schools, and the de-
PENDANTS were dragged from their
homes and taken to Cincinnati to an
swer to the charge of having violated
the Fourteenth alteration of the Fed
eral Constitution in that respect. 1t
appeared in evidence that there was a
special school for negro children near
where Graham lived, and that the
Directors requested him to send his
children to il; he, acting under the
advice of pretended white friends,
who desired to make mischief after
the mott approved Radical plan, re-
fused TO do SO, but persisted in at
tempting to force them into the white
school. In his decision the Commits
sioner very properly held that the
directors had III no wise violated the
fourteenth Amendment nor any State
law, and discharged them. The law
ofthe State provides that where there
are twenty or more negro children
there must be separate schools estab-
lished for them. Where that provis-
ion is faithfully carried out the negroes
ought to be satisfied. es.s ,.s,.

Another Terrible storm in Kansas.

Advices from Cloud county, Kansas,
mention another fearful storm, by
which a number of lives were lost,
and much property destroyed. The
roof of the house of a Mr.. Snyder

children and farm laborer were bur-
led in the snow and frozen to death.
a few miles from Snyder's house an
other family shared a similar fate, all
having been frozen to death.
