THE PEOPIE OF SUSSEX COUNTY have good
cause to express their pleasure at the unexnmpled
freedom from crime which the recent session Of
their cOoDtg Court has shown. We doubt 81
there is single county in the United States, In
which so few cases Of crime has been brought
before the courts. The Court only meets twice
in year, and yet all the criminal cases were
disposed Of in abonr three days, and the whole
session only occupied about Eve days. When Il
is isFsmsmbsred that Sussex county is the largest
county in the State in territory and has popu-
uIation OF about thirty thousand, the general
moral character Of the people must be acknow-
lodged to be very great, Notwithstanding tho re-
peated charges made against them for neglecting
the education OF their children. There is little
wonder that the freedom from crime, In that
county shOnid draw from the Chief Justice the
compliments hO has seen proper TO pay the peo-
pie, aer sitting on the Bench for many years, and
hearing the repeated falseleOd hurled al them
from partizan, preiudlced and untruthful press.

TEE LOUISIANA TRoUBLEs.-A Cl,gnGx of
HOtEtIeds HuekSfegiag. There seems to be
very little difference Of opinion among the
leading journals of the country as 70 the re-
cent bloody climax TO the political troubles
in Louisiana. The New York Herald, refer
ing to the subject says:
The mistaken policy of Gen. Grant in be-
half OF peace In Louisiana has been produc-
tive only of mischief, confusion and disorder
II Is but justice to him, however, TO say that
he appealed to Congress at the Iate session for
asettlement of this imbroglio, and that Con-
gress lacking the moral courage to settle it. left
the whole subject to the discretion of the Pres
ident, as the two houses left the Mormon difii-
Guilty, and that the President, adhering to the
Kellogg government, as he had notified Con-
gress he should do, IL left TO his own discre-
tiOn, has made it de JdctO the State govern
ment"
The New York Commercial AdUertsser says
THE bloody tRSeait6 In Louisiana shows one
thing very plainly. to wit: That when black
attacks white, white will unite with white,
without distinction Of party, to put down
black. Here is the great fact Of race antipatby
demonstrated by the irresistible logic Of
events Among the whites OF Colfax there
were men OF various political opinions, but
they sunk all such differences, aud banded to-
gether against the blacks as against a common
foe. He Is no true friend of the negro who
teaches him either 20 underYalue or disbelieVe
the great truth which this conflict has terribly
illustrated"

Il SD Picture.

The effects of the panic are telling
with fearful consequences in New
York, occasioned to some extent by
many who have been thrown out of
employment elsewhere, going to that
city in search of something to do.
From carefully preparing estimates
furnished by the World it appears
that out of 10000 machinists in that
city 1000 are already out of employ
ment, and of 1000 bricklayers 400
have been discharged. This ratio of
discharging prevails in almost all
branches of business in that city, al
though it should be mentioned that
those engaged in the manufacture of
luxuries, such as piano, carriage and
billiard-table making, etc, suffer the
most, many Of whom had their wages
cut down one-half At many of the
stores where twenty clerks are ordi-
narily employed only fifteen remain,
scores of whom are working for $40
per week; then come the shop girls,
who have likewise had to submit to a
reduction OF wages and frequently to
being discharged. 1t is estimated
that there will soon be from O.OOO to
$4,000 persons dependent upon the
charities of that city, which it will be
impossible for the benevolent societies
to provide for. The World saws:
Forty thousand dollars in cash and S25.-
900 worth of coal, the amount of donations
to the outdoor poor last year, would 90
but short way indeed with 40, 900 or so, :
600 paUpers. The private benevolent So
cieties appear to be doing as well as they
can, but their ability is always limited.
For instance, the Founding Asylum is full
and running over. a policeman has been
kept III front of the house in Washington
place day and night toprevent people from
leaving more infants there. Even then
some of the desperate mothers have been
aole to put down their infants while the
PACK OF the policeman was turned, know
ing that the kind sisters would not allow
the unfortunate babe to perish
Every effoIt Will be required to be put
forth by both authorities and private citi
zens during the coming ordeal. not only to
prevent suffering and starvation. buf to
save the city from being put at the mercy
of an army of men, women, and children
driven to desperation by the pangs of hun
Ger, cold and general want
