\ LATE Grand jury in the city of
New York feeliDgly deplores the muir
dcrs, robberies and burglaries, now OF
such frequent occurrence in that cor
rupt and ill-goverued community. 1t
Is not alone Its proximity TO Brooklyn
that furnishes solution of the almost
mysterious increase of crime, another
cause may be founl in the fact that the
North has been so intent upon ferret
lag out crimes in the South, against
the sweet-scented and meek wards of
the nation and pets of Radicalism-
overlooking the grossest immortality at
home, until it has become a supersti-
ton with the misses that no act is 4
crime unless n negro Is the victim. y
white man is nothing in comparison,
and so imbued are the courts with the
same sentiment, that Judge Lynch
alone metes out justice to the few Grim
inals who suffer the punishment they
so richly deserve. Still another reason
for the spread of crime in New York
may be found in the fact that the mill.
tary have so long exercised the func-
iions of the civil courts as TO create
the impression, with the ignorant and
vicious of the North, that they can
murder with impunity in the absence
of head courts aud the niger
in the wood pile" The South being
a part of the Union and, theoretically,
subject TO the same laws and entitled
10 the same right enjoyed 10y the other
sections, ignorance can not and vice
will not, discriminate between what
constitutes crime, and its mode ofpun-
ishmeut North and South, but apply
70 the North the same conditions
which attend the misappication OF
iu,tiee By the federal government IN
lis unauthorized interference with the
States of the South. Bad example is
dangerous

of an iredeemable currency. He seems
TO have forgotten, however, that
we have had no other in this country

out those evils sooner and pointing out
the disastrous results Of greenbacks
upon the commerce and productions
of the country, during the period he

THE hulk of the testimony laid be-
fore the public, concerning the troubles
in Mississippi, is to the effect that Ames
has deliberately created them, in order
to secure his election to the Senate in
place of Alcorn. Ames considers
himself the only true type of Radical
ism in that State, and believing the
negroes to be the only Radicals to be
relied upon in every case, his object is
to separate them from the whites by
the line of race antipathy, and thus
secure their undivided vote as against
the Democrats and the Alcorn factions.
Beyond this, he cares nothing for the
bloody consequences of his fendish
pclicy-thc South is not his home, and
if he can not secure Office at the hands
of the negroes, he will return to the
land which gave him birth ami Mis-
sippi will be relieved of an uumitiga-
ted scoundrel.

does sometimes turn mp o fresh, ripe.

decided interest in the social line. On
She 26th of December Count Tinus Ed

Temperance hotel. just opposite this
hotel, in the Downer block, lives me
chanic named Mitchell. who was blessed
with E pretty sixteen. year.old daughter
named Effie. With her the count
quickly became acquainted, and the
result was wedding on Tueaday last.
The bride was elegantly dressed wear
ing sky.blue silk, trimmed with ap-
plique lace costing $3.50, q present from
her grandmother. Orange blossoms
also added their beauty to that of the
bride, while fine diamond necklace
and fine gold watch and chain, pres-
ents from her husband That is, helped
to complete her lovelinees. But not
satisfied with these, q fine cluster dia-
mond ring was placed on her finger,
while in her dress pocket she found
90 9an in gold, and just before the GER
emony certificate of deposit in one of
the oity banks for $4,000 was handed
this lovely girl by her generous count.
This formed her marriage portion but
as he has an annual income of S75, 900,
she may not befobliged to draw very
much from her portion. The happy
couple will visit the Holland homo Of

Dress-Making rs High Art in Ger

An enterprise quite original in its or

interest all educated women everywhere.
Under the special guidance of the Ber-
lin Protection for Women" founded
by Mrs. Martin of that city, number
of educated women have formed soci-
ETY., the end and object of which is to
render dress making more strictly
speaking, tho making of all>artioles OF

these works of the needle art higher
significance than ever before conceded
to German handle. This first "Atelier,"
as they call it, (studio or Workshop, if
you please, connected with this protec-
tion union is presided over by the vile
of a physician residing in the capital.
Seconded by select circle of ladies, by
their exquisite trimming rs well as their
handsome make, the frat productions OF
society are generally admired. The
ladies of the /" Ateiier" seem to have
drawn sharp lines as to the qnalifica-
tions for admission in regard to educa-
ticp, as we are informed that only such
will be permitted to join them as have
in their possession certificate Of having
passed the frat class of some higher
female seminary. Moreover. those la
dies who desire to learn dress making
simply for their own use, and do not
wish to be accomplished, SO that as o
matter of business they may be able to

some "Ateiier" in smaller towns, will
be instructed by regularly examined
