We think it would be advisable,

! FIRST FRUIT OF THE CIVIL RIGHTS
BILL.-From published reports OF the
proceedings of the decoration OF
Union soldiers graves ut the National
| Cemetery, Memphis. the affair was one
fof the most disgrnceful ever witnessed,
and the scenes enacted by drunken
negroes were disgrace to the occa-
sion. There were probably not more
than dozen white persons present,
and Tom Swan, (colored,) president of
the pall-bearers, had tuken charge Of
the ceremonies. The cemetery il
situated some five miles out on the
Louisville Railroad. When the vari-
GUS oolored societies arrived there they
found number of refreshment stands
erected. where luncheon was offered
for sale. Tom Swan detailed portion
OF hls crowd; armed with muskets. to
break them up. which Was carried ont
by threatening to shoot tho owners;
one or two of whom saved their lives
by fleeing to the woods, while the
crowd of negroes seized upon aud ap-
propriated to their own use all the
sdibles. Mr.. Pope. who had regu-
larly licensed grocery near the gate.

for permission to sell, though he ex,

A negro woman named Goldsley was

Tho ImmoraIity OF Government.

Tho immortality OF Government.
An intelligent correspondent has
sent us an elaborate disquisision on
Government, moral and partisan, ~
from which, though too long for inser-
tion as whole in one issue of our
paper, it will afford us pleasure to
select some thoughts occ asionally.
The subject has fascination for us,
Ioth in the abstract and the concrete,
as q study in the pages OF political
philosophy. and as reality whose
ugly presence aud oppressive charac-
ter we daily see and feel. We live
ander despotio numerical majority.
marked by oil the evils which un.
checked license breeds. The antago-
nistio GLASSES OF taxpayers and tax.
consumers, antagonistio in all govern
ments. are here. owing to peculiar
circumstances. brought into sharper
opposition than anywhere else that
We have read of. It is the controlling
interest and almost the sole policy of
the dominant majority, substantially
without property of their own and
without intelligence or fitness to 60
sverD, to steadily increase the taxes
'and disbursements. Upon these they
live and from these they derive their
consequence. The influences which
ordinarily hold this tendency in check,
are utterly unknown here. Interest,
revenge. Ignorance race and class,
pride and opportunity are the motive
;. powers which drive them on. Under
stAae operation of the system as it now
exists, one class, property holding,
Intelligent and cultured, is impover-
ishedAnd weakened: The other, the in
strumente of this infliction. consti-
tuted of tho proletaire, are advanced to
wealth aaad power. That is what is
going on under our eyes. From it
is perishing rapidly.
What power on earth, asks our cor.
respondent, can do right or wrong on
SO vast scale AS the Government?
Where js there such an accumulation
Of responsibility ns in the Govern
ment? What hand 80 holds in its
grasp the veal or woe OF millions liv-
ing and millions yet unborn as the Go
vernment? We are born members of
State, and we are bound to be in
subjeotion to tire powers that be. by
.oensiderations superior to our will.
The question Of national morality, in
every branch of it, is therefore one of
profound concern to every individual.
Ehe sort Of government npon which
we have embarked claims the proud
title of self government. The very
word expresses moral restraint. It
points to conscience as the basis, with.
cut which everything must sink to
ruin. We may point to rising cities
and increasing commerce, to the ex.
tension OF manufactures, to vast tiIlage
'and to the stupendons growth of na-
tional wealth; but il we are becom.
ingiless vittuous and religions, ii COR
rqption exists in tho midst OF our
prosperity. We know that ere long our
dourishing honors will tumble down
end De succeeded by misery and shame.
National growth must produce noble
men, or the glory of national ex.
istence is frustrated. It is not dis
paraging the present in comparison
With the past to admit sad increase
.of political immortality. And it is 10
the action of Government itself that
corruption has most entered.

FIRE IN ANDERSON On Sunday
night last. about IL o'clock, the mar
shal on duty noticed the flame and
smoke issuing from the residence of
Miss Fannie Earle, situated in the
Northeastern portion of town, and
Immediately gave the alarm. Miss
Fannie Earle and some little children
OF Msj. Thos. Is. Lee were rescued
without injury, but Mrs. Harris and
daughter, who slept upstairs, both
suffered severe injuries u being taken
down. Miss Harris, finding it impus-
sibe to escape by way of the stairs,
which were on fire, leaped or fell from
the second story window, striking the
ground violently. breaking one Of her
ankles aud brulsing herself. By this
time ladder was procured. and in de.
scsnding, it broke with Mrs. Harris,
precipitating her to the ground and
severely brulsing her. Very few arti-
cies were saved from the building,
owing to the entrances being all on
fire. Two Gne pianos and u quantity
OF silver. the property Of Miss Earle,
were consumed in the building Mrs
Harris and daughter lost everything
they possessed. The entire loss IS
considerable, neither the house nor the
furniture being insured. The house
was owned by Mrs. NJ. E. Sloan, who
is now residing in Virginia. Mrs.
heith's house, ou the opposite side OF
the street, WAS almost miraculously
saved through the noble exertions OF
tho workers. Tie colored people de-
serve u great deal of uraIse for their
