Sheridan,s So EBandistE.,.

In his series of Louisiana letters Mr..
Charles NordEof is answering several
important Questions, and setting at
rest some very ugly and malicious
ISLANDERS. His last c0mmunication to
the New York Herald takes up the
question of who are the mur3erers
who have been represented III such
formidable mum bers in Sheridan 5 ban
ditti reports. He chooses Natchito-
ches Parish because 1t has become no.
torious as the most unruiy one in the
State, and he tiIds by reference to the
official record properly authenticated,
that the murders in that parish be
tween 1868 and 1873 number forty
one. OF these there We're thirteen
whites killed by whites, thirteen
colored Men killed by negroes, four
whites killed by colored men, and three
colored men by whites, while the re-
malnder were mostly murdered by
persons unknown. There IS no evil
dence that any of these murders arcse
from political causes, and though hap
pening under Republican rule, only
one OF these forty-one nurderers was
punished. But the abuse of the exc
cutive pardoning power has kept pace
with the ia lure to enforce the law
Between January, 1873, and March.
1874, Governor Kellogg pardoned thir-
teen murderers and SIX men convicted
OF man slaughter, viii e over sixty con
vlcted OF other serious offences wer"
also subjects OF his clelnency. Mr.
NordhOtf concludes from all bis OBJ
servations that 1.-The only cause Of dis
order in the State lies il the corrup-
ton and inefficiency o. the State ansi
Parish Government. What q com
mentary upon the reign of oppression

An Odd 'SeBegraDhic Error.

OF all the freaks of the telegraph,
the following is the most laughable
which has come under our personal
knowledge. Not long since a graduate
from one of our eastern theological
schools was called to the pastoral
charge of Il church in the extreme
Southwest When about TO start for
his new parish he was unexpected Y
detained by the iDcapability of his
Presbytery to ordai'- bin. In order to
explain his non arrival at the appoint
ed time, he sent the following telegram
to the deacons Of the church pres
bytery lacked quorum to ord lin. -
In the course of Its journey the mes
sage got strangely metamorphosed,
and reached the astonished deacons in
this shape: "Presbytery tackled a
worm on to Ad IN l'' The sober church
officers were greatly discomposed and
mystifed, but after grave consultation
concluded it was the minister's face
tious way of announcing that he had
got married, and accordingly proceed
ed to provide lodgings for two instead
of Chicago Inter Ocean,.

The Prince de Joinville, who came
to this country at the outbreak of the
war with his nephews-young men
who took service in the Northern
army-wrote a letter to friend from
Wizards Hotel on the 9Th of October,
1861, which has just been published in
the Washington Sunday Herald. In
it be says: s'The more [ think about ii
the more / believe that the greatness
and perhaps the very existence OF
your country depends on the re-estab'
Iishment of the union. That can be done
still L firmly believe, by the legal gov
ernment of your country showing its
power, but after that by all classe-
of the community showing the great.
est considerat on and the most delicate
magnanimity. If the civil war is al
lowed to last, if you don't pave the
way back into the Union for the mel
of the South, then L will become very
uneasy, because secession, if once sue
cessful, will become epidemic.
Such are the views of Prince who
has the reputation also of being {
statesman. We regret to say that it ii
only of late that the philosophy O.

President Grant will not be urged to
accept the nomination he in advance
declined, but he is perfectly sound on
the theory of the thing.-Springfeld
Union adm. Rep.)
The explanation has been made, and
it is not satisfactory. The third term
issue will now be regarded as squarely
made. There will be Republicans for
it, but the great mass of the party will
be against it. The duty of these lat
ter is plainly made evident. Through
their conventions and through the
press they must affirm their opposition
to the principle, under any and all
circumstances. No longer must there
be and dallying with this momentious
question. The hour for silence is pas
sed. The hour for action has come.

We are opposed, says the Winston
Sentinel, to the "Do Nothing" policy
advocated by the Radical party in re-
gard to the delegates sent to the Con
stitutional Co uention. We want
delegates who will go there to do
something, and one thing we want
them to do is to require the Judges to
rotate as they did in the good old
days before Radicalism tampered with
our Constitution. By requiring the
Judges to change circuits we will
send Judge Cloud off like l comet,
and he never will be heard of any
more until after his time is out
VIII such an end in view who in this
district will favor the Radical Do
Nothing policy?

The breaking up of the monastic or
ders in Prussia, by the recent consti-
tutlonal amendments, will affect
directly about ten thousand persons.
The Jusuits have already been oxpel-
led, and have gone into Belgium, Hol-
land and France. Some of them have
started a convent III Holland, near the
Prussian eroutier-so near that re-
monstrance has been sent to Holland
against the institution. It is evident
that the expelled monks will not get
very far away, SO that their presence
in Belgium, Holland, and other coun-
tries is likely to prove a source oftrouble
to these governments, who will doubt
less hear from Bismarck in the way of

The EeIegrapb in the African Ejs-
serts.

A correspondent of the London
Times, writing from Berba, in tropi-
cal Africa, says '' 1t was singular to
meet with the telegraph III the heart OF
the desert between Arab and Berba :;
not the telegraph put up III working
order, as we see it IA Europe, but ali
the appurtenances of that Instrument
Of civilization carried on the backs of
hundreds of camels, which laden with
coils of wire and hollow iron posts,
trod their toilsome path through the
burning sand. Every now and then
we met,one of these poor beasts, which,
overweighed and broken down by the
weight of his load, had fallen on the
ground and been abandoned avictim to

was marked "oiemnns Broth rs, Lon
don, and was tte route to KhartOum,
from which town it will be forwarded
on to span the de ,ert between KordO-
fan and Darfour. 4 good many lives
will probably be sacrificed before the
line can be considered open, as the
Arabs, who eagerly steal every piece
of iron they can meet with for their
spear points, have to be very severely
punished before they leave off cutting
down the poles. However, tins diff
Guilty once gotten over, the telegraph
will be as easily worked as the one be-
tween Khartoum and Cairo, which,
when it was first laid down. Was con-
tinualIy being interrupted.

In one of General Boynton's forth
coming letters to the Cincinnati Ga
zGtte, regarding the Sherman Ne
moirs, proof will be given, il is un-
derstood, that the terms of General
Joe Johnston's surrender CD to Gen
eral Sherman at Greensboro were
written by Confederate Postmaster
General Reagan. of Texas. It is also
understood that letter is in existence
from Reagan to JEFF. Davis, which en-
braces the opinion that the virtual eff
feet of those terms would be to re-es-
tablish slavery. This is the view Sc
cretary Stanton held of the clause re-
establishing the State governments OF
the rebellious States. Alas ! poor
Sherman.

WHILE the German army is being
rapidly equipped with the Mauser
rifle, new breech-loading musket, de
vised 10y son of Herr Won Dreyse, in-
ventor of the needle-gun, is being
tried in the government grounds at
Spandau. The new Dreyse rife is
state to be superior in some respects
even to the much-vauted Mauser.
Another and equally important inven-
ton is that of new kind of prismatic
powder adapted to the German heavy
artillery. Its specific weight is some
what greater than that of the ordinary
prisn1atic powder Q.69 against 1.65),
and its effect SO tremendous that it
makes the Prussian 27-centimetre gun
match for the English 11-inch can
non. The powder mills at Hamm and
Hanau have been ordered to manufac-
ture large quantities of the new article.

An Ohio CasabiaR,ca.

Rome, Ohio, has genuine Casabi-
anca. One day recently a farmer
placed his boy, youth of t"elve. to
guard certain point where they had
been ''fghting fire" which was pas
sing through the woods. The little
fellow did not return home at tue time
expected, and search was made for
him, though he was not found until
the morning of the following day,
when his body was discovered burnt
to a crisp. 1t is not known how the
boy can to perish in the flames, but
the belief is that his regard for his
fathers command was 50 great as to
induce him to face the fire until es
cape was out OF the question. If this
theory be the correct one, the boy
should have a monument aud Il high
one. Young America, it must be re
gretfully admitted, does not supply
much of the material for Casabiancas,
and a case SO exceptional as that of
the Ohio boy should be made much
Of, as showing that such a thing as
fiIial regard still exists.

The hundrs dth anniversary of Il e
battle Of Bunker's Hill, on June 18th,
is to receive due recognition. But two
days earlier there viii occur the CEN
tenniai anniversary of an event which
had even more influence than Bunker
Hill upon the war, yet which has as
yet scarcely received mention. On the
10Th Of June, I775, the Continental
Congress IN session at Philadelphia
elected George Washington " Com
mander-in-Chief of all the forces
raised, or to be raised, for the defence
of the colonies" A little before this
it had voted to enlist all army OF co.
900 men, of which the militia and
minute-men of New England were
made the nucleus. The defensive
movements which before then were on
Iy local thus received a national en-
dorsement, and the colonies were soli-
difed into combined resistance to
Great Britain.

California is now actually suffering

ton, and her papers are discussing
the question, what is to become of the

the turnip dinner there are three pared
apples on top of the dish of turnips,
which the actors eat instead of real
turnips. The other night it happened
that somebody had spied the apples
and eaten them. This fact was not
known till just as they were wanted.
Luckily there were more apples al
hand. There was a short but exciting
apple-paring contest and Sellers was
spared the necessity of munching raw

Mr. Beecher says there is nothing

Mr.. Beecher interpreted it recently in
his church, in a passage which to the
common eye of the laymsn, looks so
biasphemous that we hesitate to quote
it; he would, if brought up for judg-
ment at the last day, turn to God and
say, 81 have loved Thee; now damn me
if Thou canst!" The doctrine which
he breaches could not be presented in
a more startling-we might venture
to say a more shocking term, says
the New York Times.

JUDGE KERR

The Hon. John Kerr, of Caswell, as
he is best known to the people of North
Carolina, though be is now a resident
OF the county of Rockingham, and
Judge of the Seventh Judicial Dis
trict of our State, yesterday concluded
in the county of Sampson, his judicial
labors in this the Fourth Judicial Dis
trict, in the Courts of which he has
presided, by All exchange with the
Hon. A. A. McKoy, during their recent
Spring Terms.
The opportunity afforded our people
and members of the bar, by Judge
Kerr's recent riding of this circuit, to
know and consider his judicial bear
ing and stirling integrity, his prompt
ness and impartiality, and his high
apprehension in every sense of his re-
spoons BILE Office, has enabled US rightly
to appreciate and admire him for his
eminent qualities as Judge, Will !
we cannot too strongly eulogize the
pure and manly virtues which SO pre-
eminently characterize him as no.
BILE gentleman and sincere christian.
He carries with him from this entire
District to his home in the Seventh
Judicial District, a grade of reverent
and afectionate regard and esteem ac-
corded to few men.
This, our estimate of the Judge and
the man, is, we are well assured, a
truthful expression of the sentiments
and feelings of the Bar and the people
of this Judicial District.

A movement is on foot in Germany
to hold national industrial exposition
in Berlin some time in 1878. The
probabilities are in favor of the En-
peror's assent. The movement is a
timely relief to the recent disturbing
manifestations of what is called the
war party in Germany; and if it can be
pushed to success it may be hoped that
the fiery ambition of Prince Bismarck
will be turned for a season from di-
plomatic difficulties and misnnder-
standing with foreign nations to the
more grateful business Of fostering
German industry and German trade.

were in line. Moving in divisions
through the principal streets, fling in
to their respective churches, and gath

have been a beautiful one, proving
that Brooklyn is not misnamed the
City of Churches. The whole immense
number of children were regaled with
ice cream and cakes, and the army of
little ones returned to their homes ap-
parently without a mishap or misad-
venture. That was something for the
Sunday school people to be worthily
proud Of.
