4 new party founded upo,

"A new party founded upon
avowed declaration Of opposition to
President Hayes, but in all other
respects republican, has been organ
lied in Washington. We take it
that it is composed of those whose
discomfort grows out Of their failure
to control Mr.. Hayes, aided by such
as have not been appointed by him
to official positions. Reasonable
men, though they may differ with
the President, would hardly engage
in organized opposition at this early
day. They would wait and see
what his policy will develop.

1t is true that this matter of the
old bonds is swindle, but the swim
die was in making the loan, and its
perpetrators were among the men,
bers of the legislature and old cor
porations. Both were alike guilty,
and amongst both there were doubt
lessly many who really believed that
the interests of the State would be
advanced by the loan. We have
never believed that the present
holders of the bonds were parties to
this swindle. Had they been, they
would have contrived to pet rid OF
their bonds before their credit de-
preciated. Those who wilfully per.
petrated the fraud did not get caught
with bonds in their possession.

The recent murders perpctratcd
in 1'ouisiana will afford Gov. Mich
oils of that State an opportunity to
prove the Sincerity OF his promises
to preserve order and protect all
classes Of citizens. If he does not
put forth everyosiet1ort to arrest the
cowardlyperpetrators3qf these crimes
and bring them to punishment he will
merit and. rcccive2thc severest con-
dcmnation and will soon sink into
obscluity, drsplsed by honest men
of all parties. 1t will not do for him
to plead inability to enforce the law,
for he has repeatedly declared that
he has both the will and power TO
do this; and he is now called upon
by tic entire country to perform Ills
duty and redeem his pledges. We
hope and expect that he will procure
the punishment Of the blood-thirsty
asSassins and relieve President
Hayes Of the odium Of having COM
mitted an error in the adoption of
his Southern policy.
The Grange advance., 1877-05-30

The opponents of the PROPOSE
ton for canceling the old railroad
bonds declare that the detunct com:
panies guaranteed the people that
the State would never be called up
on to pay one cent of the principal
or interest of the bonds. This is
not true. The old companies guar
antied nothing. The speakers in
favor of the loan made such proni-
ses, but they, even, did not pretend
to be authorized by the companies
to do So. Had they done so the
people ought not to have been de-
celved, for it was evident that the
companies could not pay the inter-
est as it fell due. The truth is that
nearly every body then in the State
wanted the railroads built, believed
that their building would make them
all rich, and were willing to incur
twice this amount Of debt to secure
the much desired boon. /

the avcwed purpose of putting Satan to

bid farewell to the Kahba, and taking
with them some sacred souvenirs, such

coed to their homes. 1t Is from the
pilgrims that the treasure referred to in

amount yielded every year must be
very large. In 1873, 200, 900 pilgrims
visited the the holy places.

A STORY ABOUT WALES.

A story is circulating that the Prin-
cess of Wales is going to live at Copen-
hagen. She is alleged to be so outraged
by the last public intitieiity of her nus
band that she can endure the position
no longer. l do not believe it, but
repeat it rs piece of gossip which has
already Travelled far. The princess is
on her way home from Greece, aud the
prince has gone to meet her. Her re-
turn and his departure are alike rather
sudden. She was not expected quite
80 soon, and this change of plan has
naturally helped to propagate the
rumOr of u serious quarrel. But the
world asks, in its cynical way, what
there is in this new Jason with Lady
Caroline Seymour moro public or more
offensive to the princess than in any
of all the others with which she has
borne, except in that Lady s. is one of
the most beautiful and fashionable
women in the United Kingdom. The
princess has been thought to take
philosophical-or shall I say royal?-
view OF these matters. A remark is
imputed to her which, if she really
made it, would confirm that theory.
"Bertie,' she is reported to have said,
sthas loved many women, but he has
loved me the best of all.'' And, in
truth, whatever else has been urged
against the prince, nobody ever accus-
ed him OF the lesser domestic sins-of
treating his wife coldly, or falling in
all outward attentions or in constant
kindness of manner, i

TORPEDOES.

During the civil war in America tor

Southern ports. The Confederate Con-
gress organized a torpedo service in
October, 1862, and n bureau of enpi-
neers was established at Richmond
Two months afterward Federal iron
clad, the Cairo, was blown up ON Yazoo
river by torpedo, and during the
remainder of the war seven ironclads.
eleven wooden vessels and six trans,
ports were destroyed in similar wav.
The Confederates lost the Albemarie.
two steamers in Charleston harbor and
q aag-of-truce boat in the same >yav.
The Russian engineers who recently
fastened torpedo under Turkish
ironclad did no more than Lieut.. Cush-
ing had done in the waters of the
Roanoke. There were several officers in
the Confederate service who lost their
lives in attempting to do what Cushing
ccomplfshed. A submarine torpedo
boat, requiring crew of niue men,
was launched in Charleston harbor
FOR use against the bloclxadin@ fleet,
Three crews went to the bottom in this
boat before she was directed against
the enemy. Finally a fourth crew, led
by Lieut.. Dixon, volunteered to take
her out and attack the Housatonic.
The Lieutenant steereled his boat we'll;
she struck the Housatonic fairly and
blew her stern to atoms. The concus-
sion sent Dixon and his boat to the
bottom, and the torpedo boat and the
sank together.

GOING TO DEATH WITHOUT A FRIEND
lAtlanta Constitution. I

(Atlanta constitutional
We doubt that any man ever went
from the gibbet to meet his God with
as few mourners as poor Stephen
Brinkley, who expiated his crime on
the gaIIows at Newman last Friday.
On the day that he committed the
murder it took the combined efforts of
the laW-abiding citizens and the police
to save him from an avenging mob,
who had already cut the rope and
made other preparations for lynching.
When it became known that p. f.
Smith, Esq, one of the best lawyers in
Newman, had consented to defend the
prisoner, he was threatened with viO-
lence. When Gov. Smith, about q year
ago, granted him short respite, ON
more than sufficient grounds, a howl of
Indignation was raised in CoWeta, the
like of which has not been heard since
he refused to commute Miss Eberhart.
7 On the day of the execution there
was scarcely u mOurner in Newman.
His children had been sent to Tennes-
see, where they will be provided for by
his brother. Neither of his brothers
or any of his friends from a distance
were present. p. F. Smith left the
city in the morning to avoid the exc
cuti0n. The crowd about the galloWs
was as full OF gayety as q picnic excur-
sion, and as Brinkley was swung into
eternity some one of the multitude
cried out in spirit of levity, "Good-
by, Stephen!"
One of his last requests was that he
should not be buried in Georgia soil.
Once on being asked if he had the
thing to do over would he kill his wife,
he replied, "Not in Georgia." A few
days before his ignominious death, he
requested the physicians to shave his
head and examine the skull, to satisfy
his friends of his insanity, but they
persuaded him it was useless, as no
good could be accomplished by it. Up
to next to the last day he altered his
that God would not let an
insane man die on the gailows and
that he would be saved an ienominious
death.

A HUGE TREASURE FOR THE SULTAN
IN. Y. Tribune,1

IN. Y. Tribune.l -....
The Scherif OF Mecca, a recent Lon
don dispatch states, has placed the
treasure Of the Kaaba-the hottest
shrine known to the Mohammedan
world-at the Sultan's disposal. The
treasures, which are the gifts of pill
grims accumulated during several hun
dred years past, amount to FOG, OOO, 200
piasters, or ISL, 200, 900. A pilgrimage
to the Temple of Mecca is enjoined
upon every MOhammedan whose
means and health permit. The twelfth
month of the NOLAN edan year is the
time the chief religious ceremonies at
the shrine take place. Most of the
pilgrims doubtless begin their Journey
for the far-distant religious capital one
or two months beforehand. Having ar
rived near Mecca, the pilgrims assem-
BILE at various appointed places aud pre-
pare themselves to take part in the
holy ceremonies. The wall pilgrims
put on a sacred garment, consisting of
two wooden wrappers-one around their
waist, the othera around their shoulders.
The head is left bare, and the heel and
instep Of the foot, They begin their
holy rites upon arriving in Mecca by
walking seven times around the temple. !
This ceremony is followed by running |
hrst slowly and then quickly between |
two mounds, where before the PROPHETS |
time idols were worshiped. Nine DAYS
afterward the pilgrims stand in PRAYER |
on the mountain Of Arafat, near Mecca, |
until sunset. The whole Of the succeed. |
