POLITICS IN COURTS OF JUSTICE.

POLITICS IN COURTS OF JUSTICE.
In conservative circles there is about a.
much rejoicing over the escape ofthe Grant
parish prisoners, who were found guilty
by Q jury, as there was lamentation over
that Of Babcock, who was fairly acquitted.
The Grant parish prisoners have been get
free by the Supreme Court of the United
States because it does not appear by the
evidence presented that they committed
the acts which have been charged against
them "on account of the color" of the
victims.
"We may suspect" says Chief Justice
Waite, 'that the race was the cause of
hostility, but it is not averred." It BE-
comes, then, q matter for great rejoicing
in Conservative circles that the only au-
thority which has the physical force to
punish outrages against the native people
Of Louisiana, has not the legal power to
do 50, while the sovereign State to whom
the duty belongs, is physically unable to
discharge it. What a pity hat in the
midst of rejoicing over this defeat of JUS
tice, q shade of regret, . cloud of disap-
pointment should hover over the happy /
group of Conservatives! The Grant par
ish prisoners have been restored to liberty, |
and the Radicals of Louisiana discom-
flied. That is we'll. But Babcock
was not proved guilty; Belknap bids
fair to escape through the blunder-
ing of Hester Clymer; Hays, of Al
ALBANIA, who was accused of having
sold a West Point cadetship has been
honorably acquitted of all blame by the
Judiciary Committee, and
the Democracy dare not face a trial on
the half q hundred other accusations
which have been made against Repub-
lican officials in the interests of one Dem
ocratic candidate or another. New Hamp-
shire has gone to the dogs, and Maine
and New York are bristling with hostility
Democracy, as shown in the recent
own elections. The announcement of
he Supreme Court in the Grant
parish case comes in the nick Of
line to cheer the despairing hearts Of the
amid these manifold disasters
nd disappointments Men who have
'een declared guilty by a jury are re-
eased because Of the want Of legal au-
hority in the United States courts to
'unish, and there is great rejoicing in !
circles. Republicans who
ave been falsely accused By spies and /
ired reporters are h~onorably acquitted,
nd the Democrats groan in anguish. !
UGH is the spirit the Democrats are in I
lsing into the pending Presidential cam 9
align, and such is the fairness, or, to put {
plainly, total want of fairness which
le opposition politicians are practicing =
ward their fellow-citizens, and all in the 7
ope of capturing the federal Offices. .

a railroad to the Pacific, the reparation
of the levees and a deep water outlet for
one section of the South alone. The
Southern Democracy even contrasts the
two hundred million dollars of appro-
priation made to the North with the
thirty or forty millions given to the South
n demanding the difference. Hon. Mr..
Hunter, of Virginia. says that while he
once voted against the Pacific railroad, he
would now vote for it, and perceives
very plainly what the Southern Dem
ocracy have lost by sticking to prin-
ciples which their Northern allies never
regarded.
No doubt the World has the idea that
the Democracy would marrow the sphere
OF government by repeating the principle
OF protection. The Pennsylvania Demo-
cratic protectionist, Mr.. Randall, and the
Louisiana Democratic protectionist stand
without imputation of inconsistency
among their brethren, the protection Dem
ocfatS OF Connecticut and Chicago. The
Democratic House Of Representatives re.
ports an increased duty on the cotton
cloth worn by the laboring people Of the
country.
Why, then, if there be no difference -
the average integrity of the people com.
posing the two parties and the princinlas
Of appropriation and expenditure by the
two parties are the same, should there be
less. disposition or opportunity to rob the
national treasury on the part Of the one

How to Make Money

We will state that the surest, bes and speediest
way to multiply and increase" is to call at No. II
Wall Street, New York, ana consult with Alex.
rockingham Co.
These gentlemen who have long been Identified
with the history and aGiirs of Wall street, I'M
usually skilled in monetary affairs, and IN every.
thing appertanng to speculation, are uneXcalied
for ability and proficiency. 1t may also be sal l
that OF the many b okers in that city they are not
only the the most popular, but also the most sue
cesslul, best patronlzed, and most widely known
in or near the vicinity OF Wall Street.
Among the customers of the house OF Alex.
rockingham & Co., are some of our leading and
representative citizens, who are mainly indebted
to the labors of this firm for much OF the wealth
they now enjoy.
During the long and successful experience OF
Messrs. Alex. rockingham Co., in this city they
have earned for themselves an enva bic reputation
for honesty, integrity and good Iaith and ENJOY a
business almost colossal in its proportions. In fact,
the amount of business done by this house in the
course OF year is something wonderful, and often
forms the subject of comment. IL needs but visit
to their spacious Offices in Wall street 10 prove I'll
truth OF the above statement.
How they manage to convert $40 TO 500 S2O@hlo

THE LATEST NEws.-Itis hard to sift
1t out from the contradictory mass of dis
patches, but we gather the situation to be
about this: The vote of Florida is given
for Hayes by an average majority Of for
ty-three. In South Carolina the Demo-
cratic members of the Legislature from
Edgeiied and Laurens counties were re-
fused admission to the State House,
whereupon the Democrats and one or two
Republicans withdrew in Il body. The
Republicans then organized the Legisla-
turc but it is claimed that no qnorum
was present and their action consequently
illegal. South Carolina will be blessed(?)
with two State Governments. In Louis
lana the Returning board is hearing evil
dence in regard to the disputed parishes,
and some of the testimony is of such n
character that Palmer, Trumbull, and
other Northern men present on the be-
half of the Democrats are very indignant
at the means adopted to carry solid
South for "Reform Palmer is reported
to have said that iii the story of the wit
ness Pinkston is false, those who prepar-
pared it for her should be hanged, but if
it is true, the wretches who can pcrpe-
trate such atrocities should be executed
without mercy. The question is broader
than President making it is one of hu-
manity." This is the view which should
be taken by every citizen, whether Repub-
lican or Democrat. Either phase of the
matter is national disgrace and deserv-
ing of the severest punishment. A later
despatch of the SIN contradicts the wo-
mans statement on her own evidence
We are glad that such men as Trumbull
and Palmer of the Northern Democrats
are on theepot. The vote Of North Car
olna will be contested on the ground of
wholesale frauds. The New York Vorttt
is bitter on President Grant, and calls
for his impeachment by the House OF
Representatives about to assemble.

An UnansweFabie Argument.

The strongest argument which can be
urged against the advisablity of admin
istering such corrosive and nerve destroy
ing poisons as arsenic and quinine for in
termittent and remittent ievers, is the
vastly superior success in the prevention
and cure Of such diseases of Il medicine
which is the very antipode of the above
named drugs, both in respect of its COM
position and the results wrought by it. -
Such a medicine is Hostctter's Stomach
Bitters, Il purely vegetable preparation,
which not only eradicates with wonder
ful promptitude every trace of fever and
ague, and kindred types of maarious dis
ease, from the system, but is certain
preventive Of all maladies begotten of
masma tainted air and water. These re-
suits mineral anti-iebrile remedies do
not effect with certainty, and their con-
tinued use entails consequences highly
pernicous to the system. The Bitters, on
the contrary, not only afford speedy re-
lief, but establish health on permanent
basis.

TOWN AND COUNTY.

THE CHURCH FEsTIvAL.--Thomas'
Theater, on Thanksgiving evening, pre-
sented an attractive and crowded appear
nnce. Stands were erected in various
portions of the hall--a Fancy Table,
loaded with the handlwork of the ladies
of this vicinity was particularly noticea-
BILE ; n stand, with silverware to be rallied
for; ring cakes, lemonade, fishing pond
and post-otfice; also fancy bed cover
and sofa pillew to be awarded to the ones
holding the lucky mum bers, were among
the devices presented for the purpose Of
making the entertainment pay. BY 10
O'Clock everything offered for sale had
been disposed o., and then about two
hundred people sat down to a supper pre-
pared by the ladies and to which ample
Justice was done. After supper, the hall
was cleared and dancing made the order
until about 2 o'clock Friday morning.
Having oursef participated in the festiv-
tiles will no doubt be received as sufficient
apology for so slight notice of the Fes-
tval as we are enabled to give to day.
The whole affair was a success and re
fleets great credit upon the ladies who
had the matter in charge. The gross
receipts were $i00 %, and we are informed
that the net profits will exceed $3.50, all Of
which will be turned over to Rev. Mr..
Jackson, the Protestant Minister at this

ABOUT THOSE CHICKENS. The chief
sachem Of Tammany informs us that we
made n mistake in reference to those
chickens which are supposed to be dcs-
tined for slaughter in the same contin-
gency which Miss Gwin is supposed to be
waiting-the casting of the electoral vote
for Tilden. The sachem says that it is
not the design to limit the devourers of
the said chickens to dyedin-the-wool
Democrats as we asserted, but that his
friends OF both parties can shake ha nds
across the bloody chasm by masticating
the fowls together. While we believe the
lives Of those chickens safe ones to ven
ture a policy of life insurance upon, we
give our Macedonian friend the benefit of
the correction.
