E A Southern correspondent &


~ A Southern correspondent of
the Chicago Tribune takes a very
gloomy view Of the political situa-
tion in the South and professes to
believe that "the Democratic lead
ers are only waiting their opportu-
nifty to establish a new Southern
Confederacy." The Tribune is con-
strained to confess that it publishes
these views merely as curiosities,
and disavows any sympathy or re-
spect for them" but the tactics Of
our Republican contemporary in fll-
ing its columns with trash for which
it has no respect cannot be but
regarded as decidedly peculiar.

which he was very anxious TO trade
or sell. A man approached him one
day and made him an offer. He
proposed to trade the doctor eight
hundred arces of land in Dent county
for his Paris property There was
no use for the doctor to see the land
as the stranger represented it about
as bad as it could be. but still it
was eight hundred acres of land,
and the ownership of it would make
the owner q very respectable landed
proprietor. and whatever it lacked in
quality was made up in quantity.
"Good r. said the doctor. "Giye
me a 800 to boot and it's a trade.
agreed" said the stranger, and
the titles were exchanged and all
the incest requirments of the law
fulfilled, securing each in the pos
session of the property that had be-
longed to the other.
The doctor still owns the Dent
county land. and has yet Heeer seen
it; but he has the best Of evidence
in the world that it is still there. as
a party q few days ago offered him

covery made during the cruise of Ii.

ceedings of the Royal Geographical
Society, London, New Guinea is
known to be inhabited by three dis
tinct types of men; the Papuans

the northwest, and the Arfaks in the
mountains ofthe north. Capt. Mores-
by now reports the existence of q
nation on the shores of the eastern
peninsula of that territory and on
the island OF the outlying archipela-
go. They are said to posses char
acteristics which show that they are
probably of mingled Papnau and
Malayan blood. being more civilized
than the former though still semi
barbarous. Their houses are built
on piles, as the Papuans build, and
are connected with the ground by
means of holes provided with notch
es to be used as steps. The dead are
buried, with small thatched huts
placed over them. Yams and taro
are cultivated, stone mattocks being
used to break and turn the soil.
Cannibalism is not unknown among
them probably. but it is not a general
custom. Their weapons are spears
and clubs, and their mode of warfare
is to form two regular rows, the first
with spears and the second provided
with clubs. The art of manufacture
ing pottery, which Is unknown among
the Papuans is practiced by the
mixed race to a considerable extent.

Returned from the Bourne from
which no Traveller is Supposed

The Augusta {Me) Journal tells
this marvellous tale: 1--WE have an
event to chronicle that would scarce.
ly be believed were it not authorita-
lively vouched for by competent
witnesses. parties whose testimony
cannot well be disputed or set aside.
A young man in the town of Vassal-
boro. i'm this county, was suffering
the last stages of consumption, the
disease which had insidiously and
steadily brought him to the verge Of
the grave. For several weeks he
had been entirely PROSTATE and un-
able to speak, even to articulate
syllable. He became so oppressed
for breath that he compelled his at
tendants to raise the windows in his
room, put out the fires, and resort to
every means to obtain fresh air. One
day last week Thursday We under
stand the young man died. Friend
ly hands prepared the poor emaciat-
ed body for the burial; but just as
the attending friends were arranging
the remains for the casket, there ap-
peared unmistakable evidences of
returning life, in what had seemed
to them an inanimate mass of clay.
The ear of an attendant was bent
down to the side of the dead man,
and it vas discovered that the heart
had begun again the slow and meas
ured patpitations. the pulse throb-
bed, and the young man arose from
the death shrouds, opened his mouth
and spoke in clear and distinct
words to those who stood appalled,
in the death chamber. There WAS
no huskiness in his voice; he ap
peared lively and active, said he felt
not the slightest pain, but, to use
his own language, Il feel just as
well as | ever dld." At his request
the neighbors were all called in, who
crowded the house for hours, de-
claring that the recovery of the man
was equal to any miracle recorded
in the scriptures. lie told this start
led assemblage of his friends and
neighbors that as he died, all things
seemed dark, but only for an instant
his eyes suddenly opened to a new
world, the real heaven which had
been so maay times in his thoughts
and had given him so much comfort
in his last week of pain and sorrow.
He stood upon an eminence which
overlooked vast and beautiful plain
stretched further than his enlarged
vision could penetrate, and he could
describe it in language which, to his
mortal auditors, seemed extrayagant
in the extreme. But the reviviied
life of the young man was not to
continue long. Before night he
again resigned himself to death.
The body was kept q reasonable
length of time, and buried on Sun
day last, the funeral being largely
attended. We have written out the
particulars of this remarkable event
substantially as we have heard them.

BrOWnIOW to BE Burned at the
Stake.


From editorial of Southern Catholic, May 5, 1878.
The promotion of Archbishop Nc
Closkey to the Cardinalate has caus-
ed kind of volcanic eruption in the
Protestant and anti-religious period
ical literature of the country. For
some time before, the ear well at
tuned TO such sounds, could hear un-
usua. rumblings, which betokened
the fact that the tabled giant who
lay beneath the superintendent mass
of unsightly rubbish had begun to
feel uneasy. Our apprehensions were
not unfounded for no sooner had
the event been made known than
there issued forth from the crater Of
this volcano, a stream of burning la
va, which jealosy, bigOtry hatred and
deep rooted prejudice, formed the
component elements. The latest IT.
ruption heard of has broken out in
East Tennessee. The irrepressible
parson Brownlow has felt as lie says,
The velvet Of the tigers paw" and
he winces under the touch. His de-
bilitated form trcmbles as he con-
templates the alarming progress of
the Catholic Church in this country
and horrible visions of dungeons,
gibbets, ETC., crowd on his disorder
ed brain, as he foresees the possibil-
ity of the Roman organization as
suming power in America. The un-
fortunate man fears for his meek"
'' If it was right" he reasons, "to
eXtirpate heretics by fire and sword
in the fifteenth and sixteenth centu-
ries in the Netherlands, Germany
and France, the same Church con-
siders it right now to use the same
instruments in America if they had
the power" The parson is right
As soon as we get the inquisition
fairly started in this country, the
fist victim we shall recommend the
tribunal to lay hold on, will be the
East Tennessee parson and the
mode Of torture to be prescribed will
be that he be tied to a stake and set
fire to by pile of the "Whig and
Chronicle"

A BIG BONANZA,
Is the Whisky Fraud Exposure "a
Political Trick.


As has already been announced
in these dispatches. the grand per-
formance of the Big Bonanza, or
Revenue Frauds Unmasked," was
presented to the American public
to-day. with feeble success so far as
Washington is concerned. One was
reminded of the terrible revelation
in the Confederate archives. and with
what political gusto the Congression-
al Commission gave out the sensa-
tional articles to the Administration
press. The wholesale seizure Of dis
tilleries and rectifying establish
ments has been not less a political
trick than was the dissemination of
rebel correspondence. BY it the
public will understand why Attorney
General Williams was requested to
resign. that the new Attorney-Gen-
eral might see that the alleged
violations of the law were vigorously
prosecuted: 1t further explains why
the President saved Mr.. Douglass
the modification of resigning after
the exposure was made, and why
Secretary Bristow, under whose
regime it will be proved it is said the
frauds were begun, purified this De-
partment by removing an old and
faithful servant and appointing his
successor from his own State, OF
Kentucky, which State. although q
great whisky market, knows not
corruption, and has no need of the
surveillance 0: the Treasury Depart
ment. "The Administration, Big
Bonanza, has been extensively adj
vertised." said an acute Democratic
politician to night, ''but, praise God,
it will ruin the management"
