The French comedy company, lately in
this CITY and Mr.. John T. Raymond are in
New Orleans.-BostOn AdrertiSer.
Just how tie French comedy company could
be in Boston and John at the same time is really
a mystery. They might have been in the city,
and the city in John, or they in John, and
John in the city, but really now Mr.. Ad"er-
fiScr, have YOU not made q mistake:
Those are crooked truths which come to us
by the way of the ocean cable. A few days
since reports were flashed through the vasty
deep that Don Carlos had flown precipitately
into France. And now the intelligence comes
that the Carlist pretender is at Alsasns, con-
centrsting his troops and preparing to make
another stand for his crown. The Madrid
Government has promised Europe that it will
crush out the Cuban Insurrection Immediately
after subduing the Carlists. The Madrid
Government will, however, be many years
older before she can fulfill her promise.
The members of the House are urging an
other back-pay grab. They are contemplating
giving five millions OF dollars to ex-rebel SOL
diers who were pensioners before tile war and
suspended for disloyalty. Five millions of
dollars taken from the national treasury to
pay men while they were rendering service to
the cause of treason; five millions of dollars
as premium on disloyalty is a sum which we
do not believe the loyalists will be willing to
pay. The restoration of these pensioners is a
great magpanimity on the part of the Govern
ment, but to remunerate them for the time
spent while they were fighting to destroy the
Republic seems the height Of Inconsistency
and imprspriety.

Der of people that this man Dana has about

it is time for society to seek some protection

before in this country, why should he not be

of the best criminal lawyers in the
country, and of thejudges ofthe courts,
and they know at once what the pros.
poets are for brother criminal. If
the case comes before what they call a
hard Judge they raise the money to
secure a postpolement of the case.
They also have fund for mutual SUI

source they are often able to send in

Under the State Constitution, We be-

offices of trust at the same time. Mr.
Riddle had received his pay as Clerk

laws, was entitled to back pay as Con-
gresham. He did not think he ought
to be paid twice for the same time;
consequently be donated the amount
TO the State, as needing the money
worse than the United States. We
honor him for his honesty, and all
right-thinking people will say he did
right. Pity but all Congressman were
as conscientious. We would then
hear of no more credit mohilieEs, back
salary grabs and other stealings.

Memphis last week had a sensation
in the shape of an abortion case, in
which Kate Mccormick, of Humboldt,
and one DR.. johnson. :. Of Memphis,
were principals. Kate went to the
Doctor, it seems, to gct medicine for
this purpose, and, when taken, the
result WAS fatal to her and her child.
The doctor was arrested ard bound
over to court. The Humboldt Herald
says: "About three months ago Mrs.
Mccormick, mother of the poor girl,
came'to Humboldt from rycI!county,
having deserted her husband, who is
said to be a clever, industrious man.
They have never been divorced. Since
Mrs. Mccormick has hoea living here
she and her daughter have kept a
private boarding house on Washington
street, near the depot. Their conduct
was such that their neighbors had
long regarded them with suspicion.
As TO who her real seducer or party to
her shame is, is shroudcd in mystery.

Chattanooga Times: ga line of
sleeping cars from Memphis to New
York has been organized, and when
all the arrangements are perfected
will run through between these two
cities. The cars of this line already
run through from Memphis, Tenn, to
Lynchburg, Va. These cars are own
ed and run by the different roads ON
the route. The Memphis and Charles
ton road furnishes three cars, the East
Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia road
furnishes two cars and the Atlantic,
Mississippi and Ohio road furnishes
two cars. 1t is understood that the
Washington City and Virginia. Mid
land road will also furnish two cars.
These cars are a new patent and
known as the Leighton car. They are
the latest improvement and in many
respects are superior to anything of
the kind heretofore in use. They can
be used as day coaches, and as such

The Memphis Appeal says that the
cotton crop of the Southern States for
this year is estimated at four million
bales. This, at sixty dollars per
bale, will bring two hundred and forty
million dollars. This cotton is grown
in-ten States, and if divided equally,
the amount would be twenty-fotif
million dollars to each State. What
becomes of this large amount? 1t will
not do to say that it is consumed in
the payment of taxes, for c6mpara-
lively a small amount goes in that
way; it must 90 then in the purchase
of supplies Of various kinds, such as
food, clothing, work-stock, agricul-
tural Implements, etc., for it is said
that very little will be left for paying
expenses. Is there no remedy for
such state of things? Suppose in
stead Of two hundred and forty million
dollars worth of cotton, only the
hundred and eighty millions had been
produced in the Southern country, in
how much better condition we would
have been.
