men of both races and various political
opinions" This is o msstatement, rs the
record Of the court shows that not one DEM
ocrat has been indicted, although the evil
dence before the COCHRAN Star Chamber
Committee, from whence all these
charges proceed, shows that Demo-
Gratis by the dozens were accused of
the same crimes which they allege against
Republicans, but not one of them has been
prosecuted. The excuse given by Demo-
Gratis who may be charged with bribery and
corruption is that they did it for the good
of the State, to wit: To enable them TO get
the State out of the hands of the Republi-
cans" Democrats 20 "scot free" while
Republicans are sent to the penitentiary.
CARDozo has just been convicted in spite oil
the law, without adequate proof in obedi-
ence TO the clamor of the whole community,
simply because he had been o prominent
Republican leader and opposed the HAMP-
TON government up to the last moment.
lie was one of the returning board who was
sent to Jail last December because he re-
fused to turn the State over to TILpEN and
HAMPTON. A native Republican, just ar
rived from Columbia, states that he never
saw, either before, during, or since the war,
such state of excitement in that COM
munity-bitter hate and thirst for blood
rs is at present evinced in the persecution
of leading Republicans. The determination
is to wipe out forever the very existence
of the Republican party. Although the
Republicans, with an honest vote and
peaceful election, could carry the State
by 10000 majority, yet we are as
sured by reliable authority that there
is not county in the State
where the Republicans would dare TO hold
meeting to-day. The dispatch to the New
York Herald of last Tuesday, announcing
another indictment against Senator PAT
TERsoN, states that when the grand jury
came into court and announced the fact the
sheriff was compelled TO suppress the ap
pause which ensued. We are assured by
an eye witness that the announcement wa!
received with shouts Of applause by th'
motely Democratic audience, and that, too
during the solemn trial Of CARDOZo, ex
Republican State treasurer, for his liberty
With such court, such juries, and such {
community what show of justice has any
Republican down there; and yet efforts ar,
being made to drag prominent Republicans

IN his domestic affairs tho late Prussian
Field Marshal Won Wrangel showed the same
iron courage and the same notions of honor
which marked his military career, and 1t is
said that when his only son, who was subor-
dnate officer in the army, WIS implicated in
some nisdcmeanor, the General paid whatever
money forfeit the lad had incurred, and then
handing him pistol, said tersely: For a
Prussian officer who has disgraced himself
there is no way but this" Obedient to the
suggestion, young Wrangcl put the muzzle Of
the weapon to his head and blow his brains
out before his fathers eyes The General wit
messed the deed uutwardly unmoved, and
never mentioned the Offenders name.

On next Thursday and Friday night, at the
Opera House, the play of "Madcap Violet"
will be given. Miss Stockton, who h9s drama
tized this play, is u New York lady of much
worth and talent. She began the work OF

Harper's Weekly, like the fly in the spiders
web, has worked itself SO deeply into the net
of politics that it finds it difficult to either ex
tricate or to be consistent with itself. 1t has
swung around SO far toward the Democratic
side that it now declares, in substance, that the
descrtion of the Republicans, black aud white,

out any countenance or protection from the
Federal power, which it is bound by the Con.
stiiution to extend in "a republican form of
government" entities the architect of this
great wrong ''to the gratitude of every patr.
otic citizen" For all this Hrrprr's Weekly is
richly entitled to the favor and support of
Democrats everywhere, North and South, hut
as for the Republicans, the bond that attached
them to its fortunes has been sundercd by its
change Of position.

The YOUNG MEN Of Boston are renowned
for their good luck. A Mr.. TwoMBLY, hailing
from the Hub of the Universe, is to be the
ou-in.law of WILLIAM II, VANDERId-T. He
is to marry the eldest daughter of the railroad
king, the later part of this month, at St. Bar
tholomew's Church, Boston. 1t is announced
that VANDERBILT has given Mr.. TwoMBLY
half million dollars, and likewise provided
him with permanent position as superintend.
ent of all the New York Central Company's
grain elevators in New York city. This young
Bostonian will doubtless rise to eminence by
these elevators and his father-in-law, and he
should by all means drop the first or second
letter OF his name. The idea that the future
newspaper is doomed to print such name as
TwoMBLY is painful.

THE st. Louis Times has the following good
word for ex-Prcsident GRANT: There are
not great many men in this country who
would have withstOod the amount of toady-
ing that GRANT has without q nearer ap-
proach to the sacrifice of good sense by ashow
Of self.Glorifcation. If the General feels more
exalted now than when he used to drive into
81. Louis Oh the top of a two-horse load of
wood, nobody can prove it by bis manner or
his speech. lie is as much an enigma to his
friends as to his opponents" This is from a
Democrat of the rock rooted stripe, and from
one who has ever abused Gen. GRANT, shows
that there is sometimes grain of honesty and
truthfulucss TO be found among SO much wan
ton villifcation.

HERE is a chance for genuine devotion on
the part of some of the doubtful Christians OF
'rhe Row." The London journals announce
that there Is to be Patron Saint Of Journal
ism. The world of journalists has been crop
ing in the dark and stumbling among errors
since the invention Of printing without any
particular Saint to pray to, and might have
gone on thus for eternity but for the kindly
iorethought Of the London Unita Cathoi'cd
The conductors OF that eminent exponent Of
religion have petitioned the Pope to nominate
II Patron Saint of Journalism. Tho poce Della
Terita supports the idea. The Pope, 1t Is
stated, is giving the matter deliberate consider
alton. II live editor is to be canonized, his
Holiness should by all means choose from
this side of the water. Just think of Saint
SAM BowLEs, or MURAT HALsrEAD, or ALEC
MCCLURE, or DANA, or Saint BEN: PERLEY
PooRE. If the Pope does canonize journal
list, the members Of that profession will then
be like members of all other professions, they
will be able to invoke their patron saint This
will be grand movement in Christianity,
Tor 1t is to be feared that the invocations that
daily go forth from editorial sdnctum sdncto-
runs are not always of sanity character.

aged ninety.three years; his daughter, in

Que years Mrs. FANNY STANLEY, aged ninety
seven years, and others, making in all thirty
four persons. This company of old people
averaged seventy years and aggregated 2,;'so
years. These examples of remarkable long
evity were gathered from rural and not very
thickly settled district of two miles square,
and are represented, when together, as having
made up rather lively company. There was
plenty OF cht-chat, but no dancing.

with gold and paper would have been at
par long ago. If silver is remonetised
and made legal-tender, the greenback
will go to par in six months and silver
will be as valuable as the greenback.
Gold is kept up by legislation. Whenever
greenbaoks are recognized by the govern
ment and taken in payment for duties
they will be raised to the same level in
legislation as gold SO long as our mer-
chants are required to go and buy gold
to pay duties, paper and silver will be a
shade below IL in value But the remon-
etization of silver and its recoinage and
its restoration as a legal-tender will bring
the three species of currency about as
near each other as possible. Yet the dis
covery of a very rich gold mine may at
any time reduce the value of that metal
very materially.
