A DAPPER little Frenchman from
New Orleans recently appeared in New
York, claiming To be the inventor Of a
chemical process by which fax or cot
ton fibre could be converted into silk,
or rather given q texture so nearly like
silk as to DEFY ordinary tests. He
showed fine samples, and having no
money Cf ais own, succeeded in inter
esting Mcssrz. Seligman d Co.. q large
banking firm, aud also Messrz. PralI
Brothers. silk manufacturers Of Pat
t5rs5n, n. j. The lattsr.plaeed their
machinery at his service, and gave him
flax to operate on, which he did sue
cessfuily. But the ingenious French
man disappeared one fine morning,
very mysteriously, inasmuch as be
took of nothing not belonging 10 him.
The Ne1r York World says:
Mr.. PralI. still maintains perfect
faith IN the Frenchman's process and
the integrity Of the man himself. He
thinks that the latter was worried and
Overwrought, perhaps became entirely
crazy. and fed To Europe to escape
imaginary evils. A 3oX Of ribbons,
woven from common fax yarn, but
brilliant as from the looms Of Lyons,
remains at Mr.. Prall's Office to testify
to what might have been.

ing all her Southern sisters in attract
ing settlers, mainly because her rail.
roads have an interest in importing
purchasers for their land grants.
This great advantage of the North
west over the South has not been due
to any faulty policy on our part SO
much as to the ~inexorable logic of
events. Tennessee was settled, divided
up and occupied, long before the great
railroad era set in. New York was pin
ming her faith to canals forty years
after we were admitted to the Union.
When the iron horse came later, we
had no public lands with which to
tempt him, while the undeveloped
West could offer but little else. Later
than Tennessee In getting a start, Hi
nois, Missouri, Iowa and the rest could
offer free roadways and alternate sec
tons to C the aid Of steam and
rail when they did start in the process
Of development, and as a consequence,
their development has been the mole
rapid and astonishing. We need hard
ly advert to the influence of slavery in
inducing the Southern people to spread
over and occupy more land than they
can cultivate to advantage that
slavery has been abolished. The de-
funct institution no doubt FASTENED the
absorption Of public lands, with which
newer States bribed the railroad power.
Without assuming to ourselves any
blame for the past, which was deter
mined by the circumstancesof thepast,
it becomes US to recognize the changed
condition of affairs, and see what can
be accomplished under present sur
roundings. Our people have surplus
lands to sell, if our railroads have not.
10 is quite as much the interest of the
railroads as Of the people, to encourage
the importation of men and muscle.
No class will appreciate more keenlyor
more quickly than u railway man
ayers the indisputable fact that to
double Tennessee's productions is to
double or triple the profits of their
roads. We are not ready to go so far
as the NeU York Bulletin and ask them
to bring us immigrants and pur-
chasers for u lands, without pay.
But we DO ask, in all reason, that
Tennessee be given the benefit Of
emigrant rates such as Eastern
roads find profitable. We do ask for
second class fares on our lines, for the
benefit Of such as do not care to travel
f~rst-olass. Plain folks who are con-
tent with plain cars, should not be
compelled to pay for rolling palaces.
Throughout Europe ard the North the
traveller can chose his accommodations
according to his purse or inclination.
The era is fast coming-is, in fact, al
ready upon us-when the same rational
system must BE- adopted here. Graded
rates have invariably increased the vol
ume of travel, wherever tried. We can
hardly expect to compete with the
West for ~emigrants, until We can offer
them emigrant rates. The subject is
one that merits attention and discus
sion. We bespeak for 1t the serious
consideration OF our railroad o~ficIIls
nd brethren Of the State press.

TEEE CHEAT NATIONAL SMOKER

Boston S1i4Elat LNtA-AB N-L--t--
A lady travelling from New York to
Boston. a short time ago, took her seat
in a drawing loom car, the only occU-
pants Of which were two gentlemen.
One was smoking; the other held a
fresh and u1lighted cigar just ready 10
apply the match. TIE fair traveller did
not Ike the odor OF smoke, and calmly
remarked aloud that this was the draw
ing-room car, and they would please
find the smoking car forward, for the
smoking was very offensive u her. The
gentlemen removed the obnoxious
weeds. but looked extremely serious
about it. and had a word or two with
the conductor when that functiOnary
entered. He mildly requested the lady
70 step into another car, but she was
comfortably seated and declined to
move By and by other gentlemen ap-
peared and addressed the would-be
smoker as Mr.. President" and when
at last some one let drop themYstic word
Grant the obtuse but wel-meaning
dame recognized ner company, and
summoning the conductor, sought
another car.

A WASHINGTON dispatch to the

ment that Edwards Pierrepoint was
one Of the speakers at the New York
Indignation meeting against the Lou
isiana usurpation. If this be correct,
and if he is also a third-termer, as init
mated by the Cincinnati Commercial,
P~ierrepont's ~supCrsedure of Williams
does not presage any astonishing
change IN Grants policy. Il is said
he was the Presidents third choice,
Matt. Carpenter being first, who de-
clined, and Ben. Butler second, the

MINING POLITICS AND RELIGION

indianapolis is just O rnjoying
the excitement Of a close municipal
canvass. and the Radicals leave no
stone unturned in their appeals to pas
sion and prejudice against the Democ-
racy. Witness the following bit Of
editorial TRADE In the indianapolis
Journal. Senator Morton's home organ:
In this country the Catholics sup
port the Democratic party, for that
party is the supple tool and instrument
of the church, everywhere sustaining
the pretensiOns Of the church and
trampling Protestant N under foot to
secure Irish and German Catholic
votes. The party Trims its sails TO the
Catholic breeze. all the time knowing
full well that the bishops cen at any
time take from the ranks of the party
the entire Catholic yO-e.
This was not the tone IN which Ger
man and Irish voters were spoken Of
during the war when Gov. Morton was
re .ruiting his regiments for the Fed
eral army. 1t is notorious that the
majority of Germans in the Northwest
voted with the Republican party until
lately, and the Irish co-oPerated heart
ily as War Democrats. Now they are
receiving their reward as freeand equal
American citizens.
Other Radical organs, as the Ne5g
York Times and Cincinnati Gazette, 7
pursuing the same peculiar policy, sug-
costing the contingency that the rarity
Of moral ideas" may seek to repair
It's ~rottening fortunes by appeals to
s~e5tarian prejudice and a revival of
Know-Nolhingism. Now that the cry
of Rebel pals ON the Northern ear,
1t must, forsocth, try the virtue Of en-
deavoring to identify a political party
with what 1t calls foreign church
Southern outrage failing, they nat
urally follow Dean Swift's Tonical ad-
vice to " abuse the Pope A party
that lives on hate, when sectional ami
mosities disappear, must seek prolonged
life through stirring up other sources
of bitterness among the American peo-
pie.

As the "Gegban law" passed by the
late session Of the Ohio Legislature,
promises to become a Radical hobby In
the fall campaign in that State, and
has been logged into the pictorial
weeklies with illustrations, attracting
national attention, we give elsewhere
an account Of It's practical operation IN
Cleveland, as detailed by a local jour
nal. The title Of the bill defines its
object 10 be 80 secure liberty Of con-
science in matters of religion to per-
sons imprisoned or detained by au-
thority Of law Radical organs, like
the Cincinnati Gazette and HQTpeT's
Weekly represent it as a bill to hamper
the ministrations Of the Young Mems
Christian Association and accord tx.
traordinary privileges TO Popish priests.

impartial account Of how it affects
