MADAUE LEvERT AND SOUTH.
ERS SOCIETY.

Madame Levcrt, of Mobile, was a
famous woman in fashionable Southern
life through long period. She is the
last of her class-having none to wear
her honors or succeed to her authority.
Representative Southern women, the
product of slavery, and of society based
on slavery, are no more. The Southern
'planter" is only seen now and then in
gray-haired poverty. His manner and
bearing may be as princely as Madame
Levert's were modest and elegant, but
the two classes no longer exist and
in their stead another-almost a differ.
ent race-defnes popular tastes and
habits and manners. We need not
make invidiOus comparisons. The
memories of women like Madame
Leve-t are of yesterday. They are
charming visions OF the childhood of
most OF US dissipated by terrible po-
litical events precipitated by madness,
consummated by crime and crowned
by degeneracy in taste, morals and in
telligence. None have been elevated
and all degraded. The special benefi-
Charles of the revolution are advanced
in nothing and only dragged down by
the process which was designed by
sectional malignity to "steep society in
the filth of its mudsills." We have seen
the process in operative action within
the month even in this fair city, and al
most every town, county and village of
the South has been smitten and black
ened by the measureless curse. There
fore it happens when a woman like
Madame LevOrt steps off the stage
of intellectual life and of morals and
fashion once dominant in these States,
We are led to deplore terrible changes
undergone and calamities due to up-
wise and over-ambitious and selfish
politicians. Slavery nobody could or
would be induced to re-create. Its
curses were recognized before and since
the war. II is not of this that we COM
plain who deplore the decadence of
morals and depravity of habits and dis
appearance of local peculiarltles of
which Madame Levert was the imper-
sonation; but we do deplore The changed
political condition of those cities and
counties and the transfer of their mas
terry to stupidity and vice and of their
governments to those who have no in
terests in common with the people
they rob and ruin and degrade. How
long must these intolerable wrongs be
borne by Texans born freemen and
born to govern themselves.

The use of electric light and the
modes of its production and methods
Of substituting it for coal gas now &C.
cupy the attention of Mr.. Judge and
officers of the gas company of this
city. The coal mines of the Indian
Territory now constitute the source of
supply, and from this coal, when the
gas is expelled by heat, coke is made,
used in the iron furnaces. The process
is costly, and especially because of the
cost Of transporting coal so great a
distance. Therefore the eagerness of
gas companies to discover a substitute
for coal. The process of lighting, by
electricity, sticks Of charcoal, such as
the Mexicans make of cedar in the
mountains hard by this city, has been
resorted to In cities of France and Ger
many. Two Of these charcoal candles,
isolsted and fired by electric heat,
give light equal to that of 100 gas
jets. The cost is only one-half that Of
gas. The Erfelder Zei.ung describes
the invention and tells wonderful
stories about it.

IL Chicago have bought, through
tho Intervention Of the Alton and Chi
cago Railway Company, the Missouri,
Kansas and Texas road, terminating
at Denison, and if Chicago would
have the cheapest route to the Gulf,
the shortest, most direct and level,
through the most beautiful and richest
farming country on the globe, 1t will be
found between Gainesville, Fort Worth,
Meridian and Austin. Now that Nor
gan holds the Texas Central, the whole
wealth of the country along its trunk
line and branches will be forced into
Houston, and into tho sea through the
ship channel. Chicago and St. LOUIS
have lost the wealth of Central,
Northern and Western Texas by the
transfer of the management of the Cen
trail to Morgan. Admirers of Tom
SCOTS policy confess this fact, even
rs they will not the palmer truth that
Huntington and his successors will
force the worlds commerce six hun
dred miles out of its way to San Fran
cisco, while Scott will divert it over
his leased roads to Philadelphia. Nor
gan will now show the people of Tex
as how the commerce and travel of a
commonwealth can be forced in any
desirable direction by the managers of
a railway. Texas creates and endows
a corporation, giving its control to
Tom scott, whose millions and labors
of lifetime arc invested in railway
from Vinlta and st. Louis to Phila-
delphia. 1t is palpable that he will
make the old world of Asia and the
new Of the West wholly tributary to
Philadelphia, and We see at 8
glance and confess that Commodore
Morgan, controlling the Texas Central,
will divert from ST. Louis to Houston
the whole commercial wealth even of
the remosest counties of Northern,
Central and Western Texas. II CHI
cage would trade with Texas and if
Chicago railways would have freights
and travel from Texas there will be
none for that city or for st. Louis de-
nved from Morgan's roads. 1t only
remains to extend the Missouri, Kan
-~-s.s Ivau, now terminating
at Denison, TO Austin. The Interna-
tional will give Chicago direct route
to San Antonio and Central Mexico,
the Indianola and Cuero road will be
extended to this city, and however
deep the grief or bitter the disap-
poin,ment that has befallen that emil
nently good and pious man, Mr..
Dodge, it seems to US that the change
Of ownership or Of mastery which the
Central has undergone must enure to
the certain aggrandizement of the cap
ital and cities OF Texas 1t is only un-
fortunate that its morals are such, as !
illustrated in the multiplicity Of its
whisky mills, that We cannot make the
place the central seat of learning, taste,
art and Of colleges constituting the
greatest university OF the South.

The strongest possible inducement
that could be held out to a head of a
family to secure home on the heights
across the river consists in the fact
that property-holders there do not in.
tend to be burdened with police and
caiabooses and mayors courts. They
will not suffer bsr-room to be built
on any lot sold. And yet the vendor
oil this property, selling it with this
condition IN the deeds, was the pecu-
liar representative of the colored man
in the Fifteenth Legislature. He does
not wait for local option to deprive the
poor colored man of his ''liberty,n but
absolutely fastens the tyranny on the
lands and homes Of the people, and no
colore1 man, of course, would live
there. We write against whisky and
denounce 1t; but this is 6rmum tulmen,
empty words. Here, however, men
make our ideas fixed, practical hard
facts, and it is of record that whisky
is a curse to homes, to people, to a
town, to society, and ought to be ex-
PEELED forever. And when we 90 to
buy homes we prefer the spot around
which the law and deeds and county
records build this Chinese wall to ex
clude whisky through all time. But
it is an awful blow at the colored
mans liberty! Now isn't it2
