A MERITED TRIBUTE.

To the spectators who were present az the
last sad tribute paid to the memory OF the
late D. C. Byeriy, Esq, our brother IN the
crusade against fraud and corruption, one 1act
must have made lasting impression upon
them. and that was that the throng who'
leaving their usual Sabbath relaxation and
rest. and turned out by hundreds to testify
their grief was composed Of representatives
from all grades Of society. The humble arti-
can marched with the afluent banker side by
side. the poor Woodworking woman, tear
stained and saddened, led her little children
in the long line, evidencing stronger than
language could express the general love and
appreciation felt for the lamented deceased.
It was no gathering of those who, prompted
by cold curiosity, simply were present to
crafty their desires to witness the obsequies
of prominent man it was the true, loyal
and heartfelt tribute of whole community
to the noble career and proud distinction Of
him who, ever ready, led the charge Of the
people against villainy and corruption, no
matter where found.
Could the cold, inanimate form have been
revivifed, and what was once the sterling
champion of honesty, right and truth again
returned to life, the spectacle Of this homage
to his memory would have, in no slight
measure, repaid the personal sacrifices, the
long labor and the untiring zeal expended in
the battle for justice and right for the people
of our fair State

BULLETIN the first newspaper in the South,
and if untiring zeal and singleness of pur-

The proclamation of the President order
ing disorderly and turbulent. persons in
Warren comfy, Miss, to return to their
homes within five days. would appear to be q
work of superfuity, considering that perfect
peace and order reigned in that county when
the proclamation was issued. But the fact
that the citizens of Vicksburg had combined
to defend their city from an invasion Of
armed negroes offered Gen. Grant an oppor-
tunity to manifest his earnest sympathy for
official thieves too tempting to be neglected.

RANK PERJURY.

The Returning Board closed its labors after
having made a record for infamy such as has
never before been achieved by any other body
Of men, either in private or public capacity.
They have fully illustrated the full force Of
the expression, an Immortality Of infamy,"
and if there are greater criminals in any Of
the penitentiaries than are the men who will
fully set aside the legal returns Of the cleo
ton held in this State on the I'd Of Novem-
Der, then human nature is much more de-
PRAYED than we have ever believed it to be,
and there are . very sad and irreclaimable lot
in the penitentiaries.
If an ordinary thief steals loaf Of Bread
if some poor woman, driven to desperation
by hunger, filches the wherewith to stay the
cravings of nature, he or she are arrested by
the "minions" of the law and thrust into
prison to expiate their dreadful offenses
against the law; but 1.-the King can do no
wrong" and the Returning Board is King
1t may. it appears, with perfect impunity set
aside the formally expressed will Of the peo-
pie and then boast of it. It may remit
whole people back to virtual bondage, spite
of the sacred DEGREES of the ballot-box, and
under cover of the sure protection of Federal
cannon and Federal bayonets perjure their
souls in order to achieve temporary success
for their party.
1t appears that all this can be done with
IMMUNITY, even in New Orleans, and even
after the 14th of September; and while the
press of the country, even the Radical part of
it, appreciate the outrage and condemn it, we
are counselled to keep cool and do nothing
rash" We appreciate the disinterested ad-
vice very highly, and we have accordingly
evinced irigidity of department which some
may possibly misconstrue, but which is clear
ly an evidence of our ability to forbear under
circumstances SO aggravating and exasperat-
ing that they would have warmed up consider
ably any other people in the wide world and
set their minds to Illuminating on the tate of
horse thieves in Kansas, and of the peculiar
fitness of hemp for sustaining sudden and
heavy strains.
Since, however, summary punishment has
not been visited upon the men who have SO
grossly and palpably violated their oaths, and
who have inflicted wrong upon the people
of Louisiana, the character and full force of
which cannot be estimated, we believe they
can, at least, be arraigned before the Grand
Jury on the charge OF perjury We would
suggest that parties in interest take imme-
date steps to have the men who tossed out SO
the legal returns Of DeSoto,
and who in many other ways violated their
oaths and failed in their obligations, brought
before the Grand Jury, and then tried for one
Of the most heinous crimes that was ever
committed by any set Of men under the pre-
tense Of law and justice. Every one Of the
Radical members should have the brand Of
perjurer fixed upon him. never to be efflced

As an illustration of the changes of per-

60 Times tells the following suggestive
story Detroit readily disposed of S75, 900
in thirty-seven per cent water bonds, there
being but two purchasers, each of whom paid
q premium Of one per cent. J. H. Beech,
who tack $4,000, went to Detroit in 1S47
with the present Governor, Bagley. He had
Sc in cash. Bagley found employment in a
tobacco house, Beach in bank. The latters
employment not proving permanent, he went
to Cincinnati, where he failed in business.
DESTROYS Of going to st. Louis. he had no
other means Of reaching there than such as
nature provided. and to raise money wrote to
Bagley asking him for s25. Bsgley, now a
millionaire. was just able to remit the amount.
Beach reached St. Louis, and now, with a
ready cash capital Of 100000, is investing in
the bonds Of city where once he hadn't q

The message Of the Governor of Virginia to
the Legislature contained q recommendation
for the establishment of bureau Of statistics,
charged with the business of collecting, CLASH
flying and preserving such particulars relating
to the production, transportation, manufac-
lures, trade and other interests as would
essentially aid the Legislature in regulating
assessments and taxes and other matters of
general importance. He says, in support Of
his recommendation, that "no government
can be carried on with intelligent and equal
justice to all classes, sections and interests
without the means Of collecting stated and
accurate reports of the more important opera
tons of society," 1t is unfortunately true
that statistical information is the only reliable
basis upon which to found legislation, and
that in this country of much legislation there
are but few really good bureaus for the col
lection Of statistics Of any real value.
Counsellor Lawrence, of San Francisco, is
SO near-sighted that with glasses on he cannot
see anything until 1t comes within three Oh
four feet, and without them he can see moth
ing far or near While walking to his Office
he was startled by the muzzle of pistol sud-
denly obtruded within the limited space of
his vision, and he lodged so suddenly as to
throw off his spectacles. Left thus sightless,
with the dread PROBABILITY that bulle: was
about to enter him, Mr.. Lawrence plunged
around in wild endeavor to grab the assail-
ant. He caught the skirts of woman, and
held her so fast that the pistol was discharged
harmlessly in the air. She proved to be the
defendant in a case that he had prosecuted,
and she had intended 10 kill him.
