When the Telegraph annoHhced the dis

planet had two satellites, and the dispatch
was read the next morning at ten thousand
American breakfast tables, what think you
was the effect upon the hearers? Some
cOllOquy similar to the following was sure
to occur: "Mars has two moons, hey?
Pass me the milk, Kitty. Strange, isn't it,
that astronomers never saw them before.
Another chop, please. wonder what they'll
discover next? These corn cakes are excel
lent What's the latest from Europe" We
have become so accustomed to startling dis
eoveries and announcements, that we take
them as a matter of course Even truth
must appear in flaming cOlors to make her
self seen. The virtues of DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery and Pleasant

I ENNESSEE FLOUR FOR THE LlV-

Nashville American, Aug. 23,

-N'Ai'''iiS i'~'i'j mug 81
Perhaps not many OF our readers are
aware that within the past month 100 car
loads OF Kentucky and Tennessee wheat
have been sent through.he to Charles.
ton, for the Liverpool market. One car
90 of 10000 bushels OF this wheat is now
in transit via an ocean steamer. The
steamship Mexican, which can carry q
800 barrels of flour, is now at Port Royal.
Desiring to encourage direct trade with
Liverpool, the management OF the Nash
vile, Chattanooga and st. Louis railway,
with their accustomed promptness when,
Nashville's interests are TO he subserved,
put themselves in communication with
that point, in order that our millers
might avail themselves OF the oppOrtuni-
~ of sending their flour direct to the Llv-
erpool market. TO that end, Mr.. Geo.
Il, Knox, general freight agent OF the
road, spent three hours with our miIlers
and flour dealers yesterday, urging
them to take immediate action toward
sending their flour forward. Acting up
on his advice, quite number expressed a
willingness to help make up the $500
barrels. To secure uniformity of action,
those interested will bring the matterup
tor consideration durin" the Change
tanned such favorable rates to Liverpool,
that our millers and merhants will hardly
fail to take advantage of it.

JOHN SHERMAN's COMMUNISM
From the International Review.

From the International Review,
1t is a significant and startling event
that a prominent statesman, and the
dormant party in one of the largest
States, formally propose as a remedy the
virtual control OF railways by the Federal
government. Does any man seriously
believe that tour thousand millions of
property, with revenues OF five hundred
millions yearly, In the hands of men who
already make and unmake senators and
representatives IN many states can be con-
trolled by a tree government 1t would
be simpler to elect Col. Scott perpetual
president Of the United States with
powers of dictator. II ever
the United States makes il
necessary for railway property
and railway managers either to control
the government or be controlled by il.
the end is sure. The necessity of self,
protection against the communistic spirit
in congress will band together instantly
all railway owners and managers, not to
resist but to "run" the government.
-Four thousand millions will never be
owned by two hundred men who think
pay and mileage ian object" and vote
themselves toothpicks and the ranking
privilege. We shall surely escape com
munism, in that case because we shall
surely take dcspotism as better.

COMMENTING on the announcement
that the firm Of Payson & Co., have gone
into bankruptcy, the Jonesboro Gazette
says:
Payson & Co., sold two and halt
millions OF the first mortgage bonds of
the X. X. in Holland Tor gold, at a
slight discount. They received some
500, 0O0 In county bonds, and S. 900,
700 OF stock Of the Cairo and st.
Louis railroad company, and we
fail to see bow this TRANSACTION
could add to their financial embarass-
ment. Besides this there are some SIO,-
OOO which they. or their sub.c0ntractors
owe to the people OF this county tor
labor and material furnished in building
the railroad. Messrs. Payson and Canda
have undoubtedly been unfortunate in
constructing railroads; but we do not
think that the Cairo aud st. LOUIS, from
the above statement of the amounts
received, has added to their indebt-
edness. They were embarrassed, doubt
less when they took the contract Tor
building the road, and from the COM
mencement were short OF funds. Mr..
Canda IL still manager OF the road, and
IN arrears to bis employees. The bond
holders, and Canda's friends. who hold
the $6,OOO,0O0 OF stock control the road,
and 10 has been managed badly for the
past six months. 1t has really been OF
little benefit to the counties through
which 1t is constructed. Mr..
Canda is q good bridge builder. and
Knows how to construct a road
but his embarrassment, together with his
inexperience in operating railroads, has
made the Cairo and st. Louis narrow
gauge failure. We trust that the bond
holders, who have the largest interest in
the railroad, will make some better ar.
rangement in the management, so that
the road Will be profitable to them, and
beneficial to the people along the line.
While we do not intend to do any In,
justice to Mr.. Canda, we nevertheless
consider that he should not be intrusted
farther with the management of the
road.
We believe the sentiments expressed in
the above paragraph are Endorsed by
nine-tenths of the people living on the
line Of the Cairo and st. Louis road. n
10 a aUv mat cannot be denied that the
road has been badly managed, and that
it has become of little or no value to the
country through which it passes. The
present management has become so un.
popular that 1t is doubtful if, even under
the most favorable circum stancns thov
could re establish themselves in the good
opinion, Of the patrons of the road.
Properly managed there is every reason
to believe that the Cairo and st. Louis
road would be source Of profit to its
owners and blessing to the country
traversed by it. but so long as it remains
in its present condition it must prove a
burden to the former and of no benefit
TO the latter.
