Prof. Agassiz, we fear, has given NOR
tai ottense to the ruling race of this
country, In recent lecture he had the
temerity to declare that the blessed ne
gro was was a separate creation from
the CaUcasian-but we will let him
speak for himself. He said "The ne
gro and the white man were created as
specifically different as the owl and the
eagle. They were designed to fill diff
ferent places in the system of nature.
The negro is no more a negro by &C
cident or misfortune than the owl is the
kind of bird he is by accident or mis-
fortune. The negro is no more the
white mans brother than the owl is the
sister of the eagle, or the ass the brother
of the horse. How stupendous, and yet
how simple, is the doctrine that the AL
mighty Maker of the Universe has
created different species of the man, just
as no bad different species of the lower
animals, to fill different places and
officers in the grand machinery of ma

Who Will?

Last Monday, Maj. Nat. f. Cheairs,
said that he would be one of a number
TO raise the amount-fifteen thousand
loIlars-needed to put the Duck River
Valley Railroad to LewisbuIg under
contract. This is a noble example.
Who will initiate it? What haye our
leading citizens to say? Maj. Cheairs
lives eleven miles. from the road, and
will not be benefited as much
as men in Columbia and along the line
Are there not one hundred men that
will subscribe one hundred and fifty
dollars each7 That will raise the
amount. The HERALD Office is down
for thousand dollars, as poor as We
are; and we feel that will have a right

and contribute substantial aid to the
enterprise. What are you going to do,

THE constituents of Mr.. GARFIELD, of
Ohio, have sent him a petition asking
him to resign his seat in Congress be-
cause he voted for the back pay grab.
Why don't the same voters go farther,
and ask the President to resign for
signing the bill ? 1t was not Gen.
GARFIELD's vote but President GRANTS
signature that made il law. More, by
signing the said bill GRANT at the
same time increased his own salary
twenty-five thousand dollars per annum.
Suppose 1t had been plank in the Re
publican platform that he should re-
ceive fifty thousand dollars year in
stead of twenty-five, does any sane man
doubt that he would have been defeat
ed? He stipulated with the people to
serve them four years for 500, 900, and
by his own act-by not vetoing this

A Jackson Miss. letter to the New
Orleans Picayune says: "The whole
Legislature, that is majority, could be
bought, we are told, for about 5000
sometimes $1,000-prices of individual
members ranging from twenty-five to
one hundred dollars. Senators are
worth from one hundred to two hundred
and fifty. This in comparison to Louis
lana bayonet crowds, is cheap, but
money, il is said, is scarce and members
would sooner have five dollars than
nothing, and so they go. There have
been several railroad men in Jackson
the past winter for various purposes,
and they have been enabled to procure
what is desired at moderate prices"

Last week will be memorable one in
 the history of Wall street and in the his tory of ssrailroading." The failure of the
 Oswego Midland railroad to meet about 8 million due on it's paper precipitated a fall in stocks, Wednesday. On Thursday morning the announcement of the sus- pension of the great banking firm of Jay Cooke < Co.,, started panic that has re- suited in one of the greatest financial crashes ever experienced inINew York.
 The failure of other firms following that of Jay Cooke, run on the Union Trust Co:, and general collapse in railroad stocks prepared the way for worse work still on Friday. That day commenced with the suspension of the great firm of Fisk & Hatch. This was followed by the suspension of numerous small firms in New York The fall in stocks continued, and on Saturday the Union Trust Com pany was obliged to suspend, followed by the Bank of Commonwealth and the Ma tional Trust Go. Then came 8 wild panic which could only be stopped by the closing of the Stock Exchange. -
 On Sunday the President came up to New York and was importuned by busi- ness men to allow loan of greenbaeks to the banks. He wisely refused his consent to any illegal resource of that description. He agreed, however, to redeem U. s. notes to the extent of ten millions if re- quired. The Clearing House association of banks also arranged for the advance of cash on good securities. The effect has been to put stop to tie panic and restore confidence. t. ....:..... .. t--.-.
 r It is too early to predict the conse- quences of this remarkable crisis. The firm of Jay Cooke & Co, was broken down by the failure of ths public to take the large amounts of Northern Pacific bonds they had undertaken to ''place. :" The suspension of the Union Trust Go. was occasioned by the default of it's secretary, ,, 0. T. Carlton, son of Dr. Carlton of the Methodist Book Concern, who has stolen about half million it is thought. The general result of the crash will probably be to suspend uncompleted railroad en- terprises, and to affect general business injuriously to an extent that cannot yet be known. l-
