Political Fools.

A member Of the British Parliament -
Mr.. Raikes of Chester--in speech to his
constituents, has been making a diagnosis,
as the doctors would say, of the various pha.
SEES of political folly, aud he lays down three
we'll defined Glasses, as follows:
There is the foolish person who thinks
that he eau attain objects which he has very
much at heart without associating himself
with others who have the same object at
heart as himself That person, not to speak
harshy, is a fool. (Laughter.l There is
auother class of foolish persons. There are
those who think that because they belong to
a party they are bound to 60 with that
party, even when it Arrogates to tsef opin-
ions which are exactly the opposite OF their
own. That is another class Of folly which |
am sorry to say rs more or less prevalent in
this country. But there is the third, and
perhaps the most mischevous fool of all,
who when he belongs to Il party himself can
see no honesty and no justice in the party to
which he is opposed. (Cheers) Now ask
you to beware Of all these classes Of foolish
persons and especially the last, y
This classification resembles the Old
Farmers Almanac, which is a" calculated for
the meridian OF Boston, but will answer for
any other part of the country.
Mr. Carl Schurz, in his last financial
speech, exploded the idea that we must have
more paper money because there is increSs'
ing wealth each year, by suggesting that a
man might with as good cause ask for a
hundred yard sticks, because he had more
goods. Now, Mr.. David A. Wells, in an ar.
tice in the April number Of the Atlantic
Monthly, presents picture Of the evils Of
an irredsemable paper currency, by relating
the experience of the Republic OF Texas
which tried every variety of promise to pay

hud it required fifteen dollars in treasury

The New African Sea.

We have often spoken in these mi
nor Tropics" of the new African sea,
which will eventually be made by
turning the Mediterranean into the
upper part of the Great Desert, near
the Bay of Tun;s.
It is French plan for the better
protection of Algeria. The water can
be easily let in, as only narrow
stretch Of sand separates it from the
desert, which is Iowa lower level
than the Mediterranean from the sea
coast. 1t will carry the French right
into the interior by water.
From these advanced posts, says
the author of the French report of this
scheme, we should watch the nomadic
tribes of the South. The numerous
and rich oasis of the Sorf and the
Oued, only nominally subject to us,
would fall completely into our power.
Our colonization would extend to the
south of Constantine as surely as it is
established OF the Mediterranean
coast. A benefcient change of eli
mate is also not the least OF the advant-
ages promised by this bold scheme,
the first step to the realization OF
which has already been taken, the
Bay of Tunis having been requested
by the society to allow a survey Of the
country to be made.-BaltiAtorc Ga

among the party was g young Jew,
who received sixty-two and half cents
per day for his labor, and his brother
was then employed by Asa Packer at
500 per annum. But low wages and
salaries did not stamp out their indo-
nitable energy and perseverance, for
shortly afterwards they both went to
California, where there was then a
wide and profitable field for energy
and enterprise, just such rs they pos
sessed and used to great advantage,
which secured them large amount of
wealth. In due time they returned to
New York, which gave them a more
suitable field for employing their large
capital for a time i'll mercantile pur-
suits, but latterly as prominent bankers
in large financial operations on their
own account, and agents for the
Messrs. Rothschilds. Now, reader,

We feel no animosity over the result

Which acted the partizan at the polls
on Thursday, Mr.. Fuller who, like any

Judge Buxton, who sat right at the

Judge Buxton once fined cents

at the gate was rupg, and upon
the appearance of Mr.. Crump, he was

had no alternative but to obey. The

Bassford's brick yard. Just before
we went to press last night it was re-
ported that nothing had as yet been
done with either of the men, courier
| having been sent back to the city for
an important witness.
Tie impression seemed to be that
the guilty party would most certainly
be hung. The men composing the
crowd were cool and determined. They
were all armed.
Gabriel Murrel, it is said, was con-
siderably under the influence of liquor
at the time the shooting took place,
while Michael also seemed to have
taken a drink or two.
This terrible tragedy has created a
deep feeling throughout the communi-
ty. So -blooded and unprovoked
a murder was never before, perhaps,
committed.
Capt. Butler was gentleman highly
esteemed and respected by all classes
of our citizens. A devoted husband,
a fond father, and useful citizen,
he has left void which cannot be
filed.

going to press we learn that the crowd
decided, upon the sworn testimony OF
a witness who saw the deed commit
ted, that Michael Murrel was the
guilty party, and accordingly shot him
to pieces. Gabriel was placed in the
Guard House. Our information OBJ

Death of Hon. Sion H. Rogers.

Our entire community was lnexpres-
sibly shocked, on yesterday morning,
by the intelligence of the sudden
death, at his rooms in the city, Of the
Hon. Sion 81. Rogers. Mr. Rogers
was in his usual health the evening
before, cheerful and genial, as was his
wont. About 5 o'clock in the morn
ing, while in bed, he was seized with a
hemorrhage of the lungs, and, before
medical assistance could be summoned
he eXpir I'd.
Col. rogers was about 40 years of
age. He graduated at the University
Of the State in 1916. In 1854, he WAS
elected as a Wing Representative to
the lower House of Congress, serving
two years in that capacity. In 1870,
he was again elected by the Democrat
ic party in this District, serving also
one term. He was Colonel of the 47th
regiment Of North Carolina troops at
one time during the war. He was,
also, before the war, Attorney General
of the State. He was equal to any
position that he was called to fill, and
discharged his public trusts with emf
nent fidelity and decided ability.
No man was more generally esteem
ed than Col. Rogers. His affability
of manners, kindness of heart and
generosity of disposition made warm
friends of all with whom he was
brought in contact. In all the private
and domestic relations of life, he was
irreproachable. AS lawyer, he was
able and successful, and as a citizen,
he was public-spirited and useful.
He will be greatly missed in all those
capacities, and he leaves to his chill
dren and his State the legacy of n
bright record and n good name.
Peace to hjs honOred ashes.
