THE VOLCANO BURNING.

For the past twenty-five years the
North has been n receiving vessel for
the higher law and red radical teach
ings of European revolutionists. Its
bosom is pest house of restless, dis
contcntcd socialists and Agrarian
leaders All this radicalism was eager
~ seized upon by the abolitionists be
fore the war and turned against the
conservative capital invested in slave
labor. The Northern laboring man
was used as a tool to crush the slave
labor system of the South, believing
that he was striking a sturdy blow in
defence Of the life and rights of
American white labor. Slave labor
persisted and the capital it represented
vanished.
The North in freeing the Southern
African made n white slave of the
Northern laboring man. This late
labor revolt was a struggle against the
grinding despotism ofcapital monopoly.
The war of 1851 was for the freedom
of slave labor and the civil war of last
month is but the beginning of a revo-
luton for the independence and life Of
white slaves. The North kindled this
volcanic fire in 1861 and she has but
commenced to feel its whitening inAu-
ence. None Of lis lava or fiery ashes
reach the Southern States proper.
Our labor is weilfed, contented and
happy. We have no revolutionary
element in our midst. The pillars Of
our material prosperity rest upon the
basis Of an established and well-Prc-

PERILOUs CRY.

The cry has gone up that the regu-
lar army must be increased at once as
the acknowledged source of peace and
safety in the States. This demand is
the of.shoOt of the late labor disturb
ances which are the first in the history
of the country. This proposition of
large standing army ostensibly for mu-
nicipal purposes requires the gravest
consideration. 1t envelopes a deep
peril to representative government.
The question Is, shall the country sur
render to the Federal Government the
police duty of our mighty common
wealths? In moment of weakness
Pennsylvania, New York, Ohio, In
diana, Illinois, Missouri and Maryland
proclaimed their inability to protect
life and property in their respective
Jurisdictions and sought federal aid. In
the call they made for help from the
regular army they sounded the death
bell to Republican institutions and
struck a blow in favor of federal cen
tralization. We grant there is security
in a standing army, but it is the peril
Gus security of a giant whose strength
may be called upon to strangle the lib
critics Of the country. The theory of a
standing army Is at war with every at
ribute Of our Government. The States
have both the sovereign right and power
to suppress civil commotion within their
borders and when they fail to meet an
emergency like the late labor revolu-
ton they imperil their automany and
entrust the exercise of an inalienable
prerogative to an agent whose might
may become a right in the near fu-
ture.
In late years we have been drift
ing towards strong government. The
States have been sEorn of many of
their former constitutional rights and
have relied too much upon the SUI
preme rule of centralized authority.
a distinguished man has said, "There
can be no peace in this country until
the people themselves become the
source Of peace; and when the federal
army must assume to maintain order
in our communities, there will be no.
thing left of free government for which
either capital or labor can afford to
struggle"

Plots of the Democracy.

Especial Dispatch to the Philadelphia Timos.l
WASHINGTON, August SENATOR
Morgan, Of Alabama; Senator Jones,
Of Florida; Congressman Fornev, Of
Alabama; Congressman Schleicher, Of
Texas and other prominent Democrats
are here and holding various secret COL
claves. There are many vague rumors
in the air about a disafection from the
ranks of the Randall supporters, and
It should not surprise the readers Of the
Times if the slip between the cup and

That there Is . very determined effort
on foot to have y Southern man chosen
Speaker there can now be no doubt,
and II looks a. If all the disafected
were settling down on the Hon. John
Goodc Is the choice. Senator Morgan
made the speech last winter in execu-
tive session that caused the Democrats
to vote for the confirmation of Fred
Douglas as United States Marshal for
the District Of Columbia. He Is Il
great favorite Of Hayes, and it Is said
here that it was owing TO his influence
that the President has appointed Gen

THE HATCHIE RIVER AND THE
LEGISLATURE.

Major Benyard, of the United States
Engineer Corps, operating on the Mis-
sissippi river and its tributaries informs
us that the Government will not I'M
dertake to surveythe Hatchie or remove
Instructions, because the Legislature
of the State has decided that that
river is not a navigable stream. In
order to secure the aid of the Govern
ment in improving the navigation of
this river, it is necessary, in the first
place, to have the Legislature declare
it navigable.
We learn through this officer that a
bill was before our State Senate at its
last session to remove this legislative
difficulty, but, for some unaccountable
reason, failed to pass. This measure
is too important to a large section Of
the western district to be allowed to
be killed in Senatorial committee
rooms.
1t is said that railroad influences
choked the bill in It's parturition
state. BE this as it may, the Hatchie
must be opened up to navigation and
kept clear of distinctions by annual
appropriation. The Federal and State
Governments are able and should be
willing to prosper the general public,
Regardless Of the dictations of rail
road corporations the interests of the
people must be consulted. Cheap
freight rates for all species of produc-
ton are demanded. Railway tcrmi-
mimal points are built up but interme-
date places are made to suffer by I'M
fair freight determinations.
Nature has given this river-way to
our people and legislative enactments
should not be allowed to place an en-
barge upon its navigation.

WHAT DOES THE BULLETIN -
MEANge

The Memphis AroJmcRe would know
the exact status of the BULLETIN on.
Size State debt question. We are OPP
posed to repudiating one cent Of the
ascertained just indebtedness of the
State, but would accept a fair compro-
mise of the same. To dictate terms
OF settlement to a creditor is repudia-
ton and from such a dishonor, good
Lord, deliver the Commonwealth.
We would have the Legislature purge
the debit account of the State Of all
bogus claims, if any there be, and
thus find out the amount of her actual
legal indebtedness. In the meantime,
her creditors should meet and propose
what they may deem to be a reason
able basis Of payment and submit the
same TO the Legislature IF the Leg
islature on considering the subject
should decide that the proposed basis
is too high, then confer through a com
mittee with the creditors and seek
openly and fairly to effect a settlement
upon terms mutually acceptable to
both parties.
In this way we believe a solution of
the question may he reached without
tainting the fame Of the State with
the charge of Reputation. Let the
State act as any honorable individual
citizen would do in relieving himself
Of pressing financial embarrassment.
/ We are avcrse to forcing the creditor
class to accept any terms we may pro
pose. 1t would be very easy mat
ter to infame the masses to trample
the entire debt under foot, but such a
course would infict an irreparable
injury upon the public conscience of
the State and do infinitely more harm
TO our developing resources than would
high-rated taxation.
We would accept a compromise, but
would not dictate terms to the credi-
tor. individuals, communities and
corporations are too much inclined in
these days of lax commercial morals
to avoid payment of just debts. Ten
nessee is not 50 poor that her name
should be tarnished for all time with
the charge that she forced her credi-
tors to accept an unwilling settlement.
Far rather should she pay a few cents
on the dollar more and endure taxa
ton in the interest of an honorable ad-
justment.

Evidently the national bankers of
Chicago do not run or own the Board
of Trade Of that city. If they did,
the following resolution Of that body
would never have passed. The Chica-

following resolution, which has been
submitted for consideration to the Ma
tional Board Of Trade, now sitting in
Milwaukee:
''ResoIred, That in the judgment Of
the National Board Of Trade, Iega-
tender notes issued by the governl
ment, redeemable in coin on demand
at the treasury in Washington, or at
the Office Of the assistant treasurer in
the city Of New York, at the pleasure
Of the holder, would constitute the

dunn that could be supplied to the peO-
pie of the United Stats, and if Il suit

rect Congressional or political inter
ference, can be devised for It's man
agement, considerations Of economy
and convenience alike to the Govern
ment and the people demand that steps
be taken to provide and protect such
issues, that at an carly day they may
become the permanent and sole paper
currency Of the country; and that the
business Of banking, namely, the loan
ing Of money and the care Of deposits,
be left in the hands Of corporations,

AMONG the most popular productions
of American industry in these times is
the fve-cent cigar. Comparatively few
people are above smoking ive-cent

interested in knowing something OF Its
fearful and wonderful construction.
According to the manufacturers Of
the five-cent cigar it Is Il real Havana,
except the wrapper, but an investiga-
ton has shown it to be any thing else.

HIS SOUTHERN POLICY VINDTCA-
TED,

Grantism taught that the South was
grumbling volcano ready to shoot
forth fire and smoke upon the country.
Hayesism thought otherwise and hence
withdrew federal soldiery and restored
the Southern States to selfgovernment.
1t was declared to be an experiment.
But recent events have strikingly vim
Dictated this policy of Mr.. Hayes.
While the Middle States were being
shaken by alarming labor tumults, the
South enjoyed absolute exemption
from the dangers that threatened the
North. Even federal troops were
withdrawn from our section and sent
to quell the disturbances. All these
facts are making a proud historical
record for the South. They show that
Grantism was an enforced ic-that
military rule in the South was a ruth
less Republican political trick, and on
the other hand they clearly prove that
the pacific policy Of Mr.. Hayes was
the act of wise, political statesman
ship OPPORTUNITY exercised in the enter
stof peace and prosperity throughout
hitherto distressed and oppressed
section. Events attest the growing
popularity of Mr.. Hayes conservative
administration. 1t bears goodly fruit
THE Democrats of Mississippi, met
in convention last week and nominated
the following State ticket: For Gov
ernor, Stone, presentincumbent; Lieu
tenant Governor, w. H. Sims; Secre-
tary Of State, Col. Kinlock Falconer;
Treasurer, Col. w. l.. Hemingway;
Auditor, s. Gwynn; Attorney Gener-
al, Thos. T. Catching; Superintend-
ent of Public instruction, Gen. J. A.
Smith. Gen. WalthaH refused to let
his name 90 before the Convention for
Governor. 1t Is stated that the Re
publican party Of Mississippi will make
no nomination, thus leaving a clear
field to Democrats and Independents.
The July returns of the condition of
cotton, rs stated by the Agricultural
Department at Washington, covers the
entire area Of 361 counties, and these

ton grown in the United States. The
average condition Of these counties is
So 40 per cent. or less by Z per cent.
than the average for 1876. The crop
is from one to two weeks later, owing
to cold in some sections and excess of
rain in others. Insects have done but
little damage. Labor is said to be
becoming gradually more efficient,
and an improvement both in morale
and efficiency is reported from Louisi-
ana.
