portion of the South Atlantic States as well rs
Ill the territory northward Of Tennessee, the
Lower Missouri and the Platte Valley. Fog and
rain have prevailed OH the Middle Atlantic coast,
the lake region and the Ohio Valley. The
heaviest rainfall occurred in the lower lake
region and Upper Canada where the barometer
is lowest The winds have been very moderate
throughout the country. Areas of calm have
been very numerous, and were generally at.

now in the Southern States and in
the mountain region of Montana and Wyom-
ing. III the Lower Gulf the pressure is
low. The temperature has fallen in the West
and continues low on the Atlantic coast north
ward of Sandy Hook; but owing to the humidity
of the atmosphere, which is more than seventy

slnmppess make the weather uncomfortable. In
New York to-day it will be cool and cloudy, or

product. In the recent exigeneies
through which we have passed tn has
been painfully manifest. The terror OF
capital, the palsy OF business, the grave
fears that had settled like pail upon the
public mind, were intensified by the
fear that the nation had only dwarfs
and pigmies where it needed men
OF might and strength. For
time it seemed as if the baleful
process which emasculates the
physical man had worked its evil in the
political world, and that the race of
statesmen had become extinct. The
last few days has demonstrated that the
fear is unlounded. The "Cheap Jacks"
in politics, the ''cankers OF calm world
and long peace" have for once and all
stepped down and out. The race OF
statesmen is not extinct. Beyond hope

A FEW mornings since Senor Davila,
Governor of Nueva Leon, of Mexico,
crossed over to Brownsville to get his
bitters. He there met Mr.. Jesse Den-
nett, who, after q brief colloquy pro-
ceeded to bull-doze him severely with a
cOwhide. 1t appears that some years
since three Americans were arrested
for singing in the streets of Monterey,
and on some trivial pretext were un-
mercifully beaten by the prison author
tiles. This atrocity was sanctioned, II
not ordered, by Senor DaVila, who was
the Secretary of the Governor Of Nueva
Leon. The three victims have all since
died, but their friends kept the account
open with the Senor, and Mr.. bennett,
as acting executor, saw his opportunity
the other morning to strike balance.

Judge Bradley has long presided on the

Province Of Santander, Spain-a district
mountain.enclosed and shut out from
The rest of the world-has been devel-
Dped a striking illustration OF the effects
Of finter-marriage or "breeding-in" upon
the human family. Simple and indus
trious in their habits, OF strict moral and
religious principles, this people, num-
bering only few hundred, have been
constrained by the exlgencies Of their
isolated position to inter-marry for so
many generations as to confound all the
degrees of kinship. A mans wife must
necessarily bear some close degree of
relationship to him. She might be his
aunt or his first cousin, or his niece or
his halfsister or his grandmother or
great aunt, or anything but his own
daughter or mother-in-law, and quite
Dftep, perhaps, most or all of these de-
grees of relationship might exist in a
single case.
The result has confirmed the most
gloomy speculations of Comb in his
nConstitution OF Man" and other physl-
plogists who have written upon the evils
of breeding-in. Both physically and
mentally this people have dwindled into
pigmies. The average height. OF the men
is under four feet six inches-the women
relatively less. Their mental faculties
have become so "attenuated" as to re-
duce them to the status OF children,
while they are given over to religious
superstitiLions hardly creditable
amongst people once Intelligent and
independent.
This case establishes the fact that too
much breading-in won't do in the physi-
cal word. Neither will it do in the politi-
cal. The latter process has been going
on in this country under our caucus and
convention system, for 10 these many
years. The race Of statesmen who once
gave name and fame to our cnuntry's
councils, seem TO be gradually dying
out, while their places are being filled
by the mere partisan politician, or the
blatant demagogue. The planning OF
political campaigns, the gerrymander,ng
of elections, the doctoring up of re-
turns, the public have almost come to
regard as the glst of modern statesman H.
ship. The motives to political action
have seemed TO be no higher or more
respectable than those which actuate q
plantation negro in organizing raid
upon neighboring hen rcost, or water
melon patch.

lows. A strict enforcement of party
