our friends of "the Dark and Bloody
Ground" In the four-mile race Big Eel
low was their favorite, and they put
their money on him at odds,
so as to retrieve their losses on Katie
Pearce. Big Fellow took the lead and
kept it well for three and a half miles.
He was then passed easily by Rutherford,
and soon Wild Idle passed him; and thus
they went to the stand, Big Fellow being
third instead of first. Then came the
purse for all ages, one and one-eighth
miles, in which the Kentuckians made
Monmouth even a greater favorite than
Katie Pearce or Big Fellow had been.
But the result was the same-a bad beat
and a ruinous loss of money. All of which
goes 10 prove the wisdom of the advice:
put money in your purse, and if you wish
to keep it don't put it on a horse race.
Van Leer, a Nashville horse, now here.

THE Ns10 York World inquiries why
II is that We, who furnished the looms
Of England last year with eight hun
dred and seventy-fve million pounds Of
cotton, valued at one hundred and
thirty-siz million nine hundred and
ffty-two thousand one hundred and
eighty-seven dollars; who are the equals
of her population in industrious quail
ties, whose country has industrial ad.
vantages superior to hers, are unable
TO compete with her in neutral markets
in the sale of manufactured cotton
goods? As the Morrill, tariff in 1861
gave rise to our present exaggerated
system Of protection, and as since that
date commercial prosperity has been
far less pronounced in this country
than it was during the previous decade,
the inevitable conclusion is that our
protective system has proved an injury
rather than a benefit. It is therefore
assumed that with a more moderate
tariff we would more rapidly become
the peer of England in manufacturing
enterprise. If we enter into cOmpeti-
ton we must do so on equal tariff
terms. The natural advantages are
altogether in our favor, the raw ma
teriaI and the consumers both being in
our midst.

dred and ninety-five millions. Georgia
IN 1860, returned a larger amount of
assessed personal estate than any other
State in the Union, namely four hun
bred and thirty-eight millions. In 1870
this total was changed to eighty three
millions, a loss Of three hundred and
and fifty-fve millions. Missouri,
though a slave State, has suffered COM
paratively little. Her personally, as
assessed in 1860, was one humid. ed and
thirteen millions. In 1870 it was in
creased to hundred and thirty-seven
millions. Taking the aggregate estima-
ted true wealth Of all the slaveholding
States in 1860. it presents a total of six
thousand seven hundred and forty-six
millions of dollars. In 1870 the same
aggregate falls to five Thousand four
hundred and siXty-two millions, show
ing a loss Of twelve hundred and eighty
four millions. The. non slavholding
States, on the contrary, show an i'm
mense increase during the same period.
In 1860 their aggregate estimated true
wealth was nine thousand three hun
dred and forty millions, and in 1870,
twenty-four thousand three hundred
and sixty millions; being an increase
of fifteen thousand and twenty mil
lions. If we look at the wealth of the
late slave States in 1850 there appears
a great increase from that period to
1860. The total in 1850 was twenty
nine hundred and forty-seven mil
lions; and in 1860, six thousand
seven hundred and forty-six millions
showing an increase of thirty-seven
hundred and nmety-nine millions, or
one hundred and twenty-eight per
cent. Had the war not taken place,
the same ratio of increase would have
fixed the wealth of the Southern States
in 1870 at fifteen thousand three hun
dred and eighy-one millions, or more
than two and a quarter times what it
actually proved to be. And yet, with
even all these enormous losses, the
South would now be happier and more
prosperous than at any time in her his
tory but for the corrupt and tyrannous
rule with which she has been cursed
since the war. But peace has come at
last, and the next decade will show a
glorious outcome.

DEMOCRATIC CHANCES IN mAssA.
CHUaETTN
New York Tribune, Julr 10.

New York Tribune, July 10.
The political situation in Massachu.
sets, with reference to the fall cleo
tons, Is decidedly complicated by the
rather demoralized condition of the
Republican party. The reverses of
last year seem to have scattered it's
leaders and encouraged the spirit
of independence among voters
who have heretofore followed
without question the dictation of con-
ventions. Federal Office holders are no
longer a controlling element, Gen.
Butler, for a time at least, is inactive.
and the ProhibitIonists and anti-Pro.
hlbitionists have not yet seen the ne
cesslty for compromise if they would
secure victory for a Republican ticket.
The Democratic leaders, on the other
hand, have held their forces well
IN hand, and are quite willing to
try another campaign with Gov. Gas
ton as their candidate. 1t is evident
that unless something is done speedily
to secure harmony in the Republican
ranks the Democrats and Liberal Re.
pubhcans will carry the day.

A DISPATCH from Hon. VIM. D. Kel-
ley, dated Y 0ungstOwn, Ohio, contains
the sad intelligence that a sudden
change in the condition of his health
renders it impossible for him to i.lu-
inmate our citizens upon the subject of
finance Tuesday night. This is a sore
disappointment and one grievous to be
borne, but Mr.. Kelley will find, should
he attempt to come West again, that
the climate in this latitude Is particu-
larly unhealthy for persons holding his
particular views.-IndlqnGpoIis Jour
nal.
Rather cool this, coming from the
organ of so pronounced an inhationist
as Morton. 1t remains to be seen
whether the Indiana Senator will find
the Ohio atmosphere more salubrious
when he mounts the stump there next
month to champion financial principles
which he has been denouncing in and
out of Congress for the past three
years.

THE canvass between McCrezry and
Harlan, the Democratic and Republican
candidates for the Kentucky Cover
norship, is being conducted in eminent
~ genteel style. They travel together.
speak together, eat at the same table.
and sometimes sleep in the same bed.
In their debates they show each other
no mercy; both are able and practised
debaters; both are men of popular
manners, and each IS a good match for
the other. But they observe the strict
est decorum and courtesy in their Ian
guage; even in the personal passages
when they assail each others record.
they are careful to avoid mere abuse,
and to abstain from any accusation
they cannot prove. This is an i'm
pTovement on the rOugh-and-tumble
contests of olden days, when yigor Of
expletive was more potent with the
groundlings..than strength Of argument.

CHEAP TELEGRAPHY.

capital stock is So, 200, 900, IN 100000
shares, 800 each. Seven million five
hundred thousand dollars have been
subscribed and ten per centum already
paid mp. Michael Reese, Calvin W.
Kellogg, James R. Kecne, F. D. Ather-
ton, William Sharon, William Burling
and Alfred a. Cohen, all leading fnan-
Ciers, are interested in the en-
terprise. They announce that
they mean To commence the con-
struction of lines at the earliest posi-
bic moment, and propose to extend
lines all over the United States and
leading points of the British provinces.
Within ninety days a central construc-
ton Office Will be opened in New York.
-Four through wires are to be built be-
tween San Francisco and New York
City. Tolls are to be fixed at extreme
ly low rates, about equal to the pro-
posed postal telegraph. No stock is
for sale at present, thepromoters snow
ing their confidence in the enterprise
by building these lines. The present
favorable financial condition Of the
Pacific coast may enable the new COM
pany to commence at an early day a
struggle for supremacy with the older
Jines. At all events, the incorporators
express their determination to make
the enterprise a national success. Up
with the poles. The era Of cheap tele-
graphy is at hand.

THOMAS CARLYLE has numerous
admirers Cd this side Of the Atlantic,
but probably California does not take
much stock in his philosophy. He
blurted out to lady of that State, the

service there; you are harming the
world. Cover over your mines, leave
your gold in the earth, and 60 to

everywhere the expenses Of living, and

OUR RIFLEMEN IN OLD ICELAND.


The account we publish in another
column of the dinner given by the fac.
ulty of Trinity College, Dublin, TO the
members of the American team will be
found full of interest. Nothing could
better illustrate the profound friend.
ship all classes of the Irish people feel
towards Americans, than this BANQUET
offered to our rifemen. Among all the
! conservative institutions of Ireland, old
Trinity has ever been the most rigid
and exclusive, and that fellows of that
institution should throw open their
banqueting halls to a number of repub-
lcan American riiemen shows that
the kindly feeling entertained
by the masses of the Irish
people toward our institutions begin to
be shared even by the most conserva-
tive element IN Ireland. The banquet
itself gave occasion for a display OF
after-dinner elOquence at once graceful
and effective. Toasts were drunk to
the health of the President of the Uni
ted States, an honor never before paid
to any foreign ruler. The value of all
this Is IN the lesson of unity and good
fellowship it teaches. If these peace
full contests at CreedmOOr and Dolly
mount should do no other good they
Will have removed many ingrained pre-
JUDGES from the minds of many per
sons. Irish gentlemen will learn
from the testimony of men Of
their own caste that the Ameri.
can people do not at all resemble the
typical Yankee, and Americans who
have been drawn TO Ireland will find
that the stage Irishman has no exis.
teuce except in the fertile brains of
dramatists. Their visit will also de-
monstrate to them the existence of a
cultured and refined Irish society, as
distinct from the whisky-drinking
rlot-loving creatures pictured by for.
elgn caricaturists as could well be i'm
agined. With the disappearance Of
these and kindred preiudices we may
hope that the bonds of sympathy be-
tween the Irish and American people
will continue to multiply. And if these
pleasant visits and interchanges of
compliments do no more than this,
they viii have amply repaid the time
and attention devoted to them.
