An exchange says that the carpet
baggera nave LETT the State 81 ,T-
ginin, North Carolina, Georgia, Ten
nessee, Arkansas and Texas, and that
they are packing their trunks-carpet-
bags will not hold their "plunder" now
in Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana,
etc. This speaks well for the future of
the South, and we hope it is entirely
true.
Francisco Aguilera, President of the
Cuban Republic, is redeeming his
promise that the fight should he at
once re-opened all along the hostile
lines. Scarcely had his proclamation,
in which occurred the memorable
L., 1 llnnI In
dependence and progress for all" gone
forth to the world, when We received
intelligence of II sharp attack on the
Spanish forces by the insurgents, near
ST. Domingo.
King George, of Greece, seems to he
in an unhappy predicament. His
kingdom is threatened with revolu-
ton, he is unpopular, and nobody
takes his hat of TO him on the streets,
the Queen has been insulted, and he is
afraid to go the Hellenic Long Branch,
at Dekeleta, because he thinks it quite
probable he will not be able to get
back to his capital again. Two Rus
sian ships are ready ut the Pireus to
carry him away in case of revolu-
ton.
The Washington Chronicle, of the
14th instant, positively says there will
be no change in the head of the Inte-
rior Department unless Delano, "fOr
personal reasons, should voluntarily
choose to resign, of which he has
now no intention, until the retirement
of the present administration" This
was printed after the publication of
Professor Marsh's letter, and the
Chronicle says: ain saying this, we
speak that we do know" That set
ties it.
The statue of Lafayette presented by
the French Government to the city of
New York, has arrived on the steamer
Amcrique. 1t was designed by Bar
thOldi, and cast in bronze by Barbe-
dienne. The figure is little over life
size, and represents Lafayette in his
youth embarking for America, with
the historic words: ".SitOt QtOT dppris
Ia proclamation Pindependonce, mon
occur fit enrOle." "As soon as | knew
of the proclamation of independence,
my heart was enlisted"
Thomas Carlyle recently closed an
interview with u London correspond
ent of The San Francisco Chronicle
with this characteristic growl at Cali
fornia. "YOu are doing no good there;
you are harming the world. Cover
over your mines, leave your gold in
the earth, and go to planting potatoes.
Every man who gives potato to the
world is the benefactor of his race; but
you with your gold are overturning So
cety, making the ignoble prominent,
hn of
living, and confusing all things"
Secretary Robson must be nice
man to know. A Washington dispatch
states that the Tallapoosa will make II
pleasure cruise this summer for the
accomNn odation of a large number of
prominent persons, including 'the
Misses Porter, with several other of
our society bellies" In case these
bellies should fall overheard, we hope
our rosy secretary of the navy will
have gallant young MILDLY at hand
to wiring them out, rs Tennyson says,
"to the wild sky, the flying clouds"
The nation is taxed for the Gear girls
summer frolic, but then what was the
American nary created for?
Referring to new secret organiza-
ton which has been somewhat inquir-
ed about in Washington and Balti-
more, the Washington Star says: "The
new organization Las no party or ma
tional lines, and is rather local in its
character, having for one of its main
purposes opposition to the policy of
granting State or municipal aid to Sec
tartan institutions. 1t embraces men
of all politics and nationalities in its
but is understood . to be
anti Catholic. 1t is claimed that the
order has already membership of
some fifteen thousand voters in Balti-
more, and that it will be power in
the coming election in Maryland"
Not single Southern journal has de-
Tended Preston's harangue, but, on the
contrary, all Of them have uttered sem
timents similar to the following from
the Memphis Avalanche: "The des-
TIMES of the South have been trans
ferred to the keeping of the younger
men, most Of whom were not voters
when Sumter fell. They have more
important task than brooding over the
past and presagiDg evil in the future.
They have a vast, almost ruined en-
pIre to rebuild and beautify and enrich
"a country TO render greater and more
glorious than ever before. Men
charged with this great mission have
no time to listen to the maunderings
and jibberings of unsheeted and un-
coffined ghosts.

ply TO an article in the Times, says 1t
