OBITUARY.


Mary Phillips, wife of John Phillips, and
daughter of VIM. and Jane Dalany, was born
in Jackson county, Ohio, July %, 1925, and
died near Portland, June 49, 1874, in the forty
ninth year of her age. She was married to her
now bereaved husband September 10, 1915.
They were the parents of seven children, five
of whom are living; two have preceded her to
the better land-one in infancy, in 1850 the
other had only been married some ten months,
and died in great peace of mind, in 1872, Sister
Phillips Remembered her CREATOR early in
life, seeking him of whom Moses and the
Prophets did write, and united with the NJ. E.
Church. Her life clearly exhibited her con-
stant faith in Jesus, scattering love and friend
ship wherever she went, preparing her for the
duties of wife, mother and neighbor, Her af-
fiictions were long and severe; yet she patient
ly endured as seeing him who is invisible, after
speaking of her rest beyond aff1iction's VALE
She patiently awaited the masters call, and
when informed by weeping husband that they
could not live without her, she said they had
done all that could be done for her earthly
welfare, not to mourn for her, for she was 60
ing home. At two p. very large audience
assembled at the old home, and after appropri-
ate religious services, all that was mortal was
laid in the family burying ground, to await the
voice Off Jesus to awake the sleeping dust. May
husband, children and friends, meet her in
Heaven. NJ. D. VAUGHN.

SHEER NONSENSE RUBBED TN

That the appeal of the REPUBLICAN to
the whole people of the United States
not to drown out some of our best sugar
and rice lands by authorizing the expert
ment Of wingdams has had its effect has
been proven by the efforts of the Eadites
to ridicule the very idea of the theory that
the jetties will back up the water and
cause it to overflow above the head of the
passes as stark nonsense" This cores
ponds with the observations Of dry land
engineer of our own city, who is a veke-
ment advocate of Eads. But We under
stand this effort to disparage what they
apprehend. 1t is to whistle through the
graveyard of their expectations. We
newspaper men see SO much of this that
We always know when shot strikes bv
the terrified pretense Of the sufferer that
he is not hurt.
We began by reciting the history Of the
relief of the Banks squadron, when
aground in Red river, by wingdams,
which raised the water, and fioated the
vessels over the shadows. We then gave
the assertion Of Albert Stein, who said.
twenty years ago, that

Captain G. W. Howell reasons thus
Does Captain Eads know the effects of q
flood in the lower Mississippi! He seems
to understand that the banks are built up
by overtows-perhaps, also, that the over
flowed bottom lands are 80 built up.
An addition, by artificial means, of even
few inches, to the natural rise is matter
OF importance to people, who, from sad
experience. view every inch Of rise above
ordinary food height with fear and trem-
bling.
1t it be true that jetties must raise the
water above them to be useful, that such
rise be only Temporary; that, when it sub
sides the useful effect OF jetties is lost, is it
not possible that Captain Eads should have
argued for a permanent rise, to create the
effects OF permanent flood, rather than
for one OF temporary character
When our people assemble with shot
guns to prevent the dash of steamboats,
wheels, when two of our daily journals
warned the steamboat pilots to keep in
the middle of the stream to avoid the
danger of overfowing the levees, then
filed to the brim, or Of being sho. at for
the danger incurred, there is no ''sheer
nonsense" in protesting against anything
that may enhance that danger. The tide
does back water to the levee of New Or
leans, and the water must, therefore, be
level from the Gulf to New Orleans.
Hence the parishes of st. Bernard and
which lie below New Or
leans, would be destroyed. What are the
products and what the population of
these parishes exposed to this danger

Having, then, sustained our position

THE ISTHMUS CANAL.

| While we are discussing the industrial
and political situation, and quarreling
among ourselves as to who is to blame for
having produced it, an expedition has been
dispatched by the government to inspect
two competing routes for an interoceanic
canal across the isthmus of Central
America. We have traced the progress
OF this commission across from the San
Juan harbor to that of Bito on the Pacific
by way Of the great interior lakes. The
commission then went down the coast in
the United States steamship SaRnac to
Cupica Bay, the Pacific terminus of
the Atrato and Napipi river canal
From this point the party assembled
the rivers, inspected the obstacles
and facilities of the Panama route,
and found in the Gulf of Darien the
United States vessel Gettysburg, which
had taken them first to San Juan. in Mica
ragua, ready TO take them back to the
United States, where they have already
arrived. As survey, SO far as ascertain
ed, this commission has found the Mica
ragua crossing practicable, with an abund-
ant summit supply of water. This route,
however, is through highly productive
and populous country. in climate COM
parat;vely comfortable for white people.
The harbors on the Atlantic and Pacific
will require artificial deepening on one
side and protection on the. other. The
only merit Of the Pana ma route consists
in the superior harbors at both termini of
the canal. The lockage and summit sup
ply of Panama is more unfavorable than
at Nicaragua.
We can not tell whether Congress will
make an appropriation. for this work of
external improvement, but if it should do
so, New Orleans and the West are deeply
interested that the one nearest to this
port shall be chosen. The construction
will involve am estimated cost of
100000, 900, and may possibly be in
creased to S100,000,0OO This whole sum
will be expended in labor, materials and
supplies, which should be furnished di-
rect from New Orleans. 1t certainly would
animate greatly our trade in such supplies
and would offer more satisfactory base
of national expenditure than il we
were made the base of supply for a
war with one Of the tropical States.
The canal will be but the OPEN
ing to an enlarged commerce with
the ne WY developed republics Of Central
America. The war would prejudice an
array against us, and turn their commerce
into other hands and channels. We
would suggest that our merchants give a
reception to Mr.. Walton, who has, with
out any compensation from the govern
ment, but on behalf of New Orleans, &C.
companied the expedition, and who, we
may suppose, may soon be among us to |
render an account of the results to be ex-
pected from the enterprise when COM
pleted.

first assumed that . Democratic juror
may and will under his oath acquit any
man of murder where the subject has
been Republican. Secondly, it is
claimed that if man be of color, he is
necessarily Republican, and that being
Republican, he will naturally violate
his oath and convict prisoner of murder,
albeit the testimony may be insufficient
to justify the verdict. This publishes no
very high opinion Of the jurymen Sc
lected under the amended law. The
Democratic juror, sworn to try the issues
joined between the State and prisoner upon
charge of felony, is expected by his
party to acquit the prisoner before he even
goes into the box. It is also very fair
avowal of the hostility and distrust to-
ward the colored people that the mere
fact OF their being upon jury is suff-
cient to predict dishonest verdict.
These evidences of distrust will be re-
membered when the time of year comes
to persuade the freedmen that those poll
ticians who now hold them unfit alike for
suffrage and for justice will constitute
their best friends and representatives.
There should be at least one statute ex-
acted from the Fusionists by the colored
dupes who may vote for them. Its de-
scriptive title would read somewhat thus:
"An act to exempt persons of color from
being killed for political causes during
the months Of September, October and
November in every alternate year after
The passage thereof"
This would be in the nature OF a game
aw, and would preserve the stock of
aborers and menials at least during the
and elections. During this
period they would be useful to the Fusion
politicians. At any other TIME, under the |
uling of the Picayune, the killing of a
nan of color because he was suspected of |
'eing Republican, being political Of |
ense, would constitute no punishable |
rhine. Such is the legal and logical de-
luction from the Picayne's paragraph, |
nd should the Fusionists get control of
be government it may be logically ex-
ected that they will carry out by enact
lent the doctrines they have thus avowed.
