These facts suggest the extent of their
sacrifices during the war-the Wilderness
with which they laid their all upon the altar
with which the men sent to rule them at the
close of the war despoiled them of what re-
manned. The devastation that everywhere
followed the track of armies would have been
soon repaired but for the horde of cormor-
ants whe followed afterwards and fastened
themselves upon the people. These have
Slapped the very foundations of industry,
loaded the people with burdens of taxation
difficult to be borne, repressed all desire for
economy and thrift. Evidences of prosperity
on the part of a citizen marked him as their
prey utter helplessness and impecunlosity
have been the only protection against their
rapacity.
Sad as this picture is, we are sure it is moi
overdrawn. That the people have
had too much pride to herald
their misfortunes abroad, is no
disgrace to them. It is rather to their cred
it that they have endured uncomplaininglJ
outrages that would have driven most people
to evaporation. But grevious as have beer
their wrongs, PROSTATE as their material re-
sources are, we look for a brighter era in thu
near future. By persistent struggling the.
have succeeded in freeing themselves from
the CALLING yoke Of the plundering hordes o
carpet-baggers, and are just entering one
more upon career of prosperity. The RICH
of self-government has been restored t
them, and their first work has been to re
duce the cost of government. People n
longer avade the payment of their taxes, fo
they know that the money that they thu
contribute will be honestly used to secure fc
them protection to life and property: that
will not be diverted from its legitimate use
to fill the Golfers of INSCRIPTIONS plunderers
Being assured of the fruits of their industr,
trade will be stimulated, manufacturing Ell
couraged, commerce revived. Ere man
years we expect to see the South assert itse
by taking the positi IN to which it is entitle

the place of indulgence. Her repression h'
only been temporary. She cannot be perm

THE ERR OF TREATIES.

This appears to be an era of treaties
across the water. Since Beacons6eld sprung
the Anglo-Turkish convention upon the pub
lie, every nation in Europe, from the largest
to the smallest, seems to have become anx-
fious to possess itself of treaty-to form
an alliance Of some sort. Treaties have be-
come SO popular that prime ministers Cry for
be without one. Yesterdays cable dispatches
convey the intelligence that Austria has con-
cluded convention with Turkey against
Russia; that Italy and Greece have allied
themselves against Turkey, and that the
Vatican is about to declare its policy towards
all the powers, with view to securing pro-
lection for its interests. ~
The most important of these conventions
is that between Austro-Hungary and the
Porte. Under its provisions Austria engages
to prevent any future alliance between Rus
STA and Montenegro and Servia, and to pre-
serve order in Bulgaria between Mussulmans
and Christians even, if necessary, during the
Russian occupation. Exactly how she will

lance between Russia and Montenegro or
Servia does not appear. By the terms of the
treaty of Berlin she is given only the same
power over these States that other nations
have. She is bound to guard their inde-
pendence if it shall be threatened, nothing
more. She cannot interfere in their gov
eminent or prevent them forming alliances
any more than France, or Italy, OF Germany.
So far as her moral influence may go, she
may be able to carry out this part of her
agreement, but could not attempt to force
acquiescence in her views unless she could
demonstrate to the satisfaction of Europe
that the contemplated treaties were designed
to interfere with their independence.
(. The covenant to preserve the peace in Bull
garia between Mohammedans and Christians
is difficult task. The two classes cannot
live together in peace any more than oil
and water can commingle. Yet the under
taking is a praiseworthy one, none the less
SO because of its difficulty. It will hardly be
necessary for her to interfere, however, dur
ing the Russian occupation, for that power
will see to it that peace between the factions

TIE CONDITION OF THE SOUTH.


A paragraph in recent number of the
New York Times tells in brief the story of
the South-a story of hardship, of outrage,
of robbery, of accomplishing suffering, of
"acqaiesence in the results of the wars akin
to despair. It is story that awakens the
keenest sympathy, the liveliest commisera-
ton. It is concise history of the country,
suggesting all the hardships endured while
the war was in progress, all the impositions
practiced by the constituencies carpet baggers
who so relentlessly plundered the people. It
tells of the ruin that has been brought upon
bones once happy and full of plenty. A
volume could not have been more suggestive
could not have shown more fully the mis-
cry that resides in section exceptionally
blessed by nature, exceptionally cursed by
man. Here is the whole story of the war
and it's results in nutshell:
While there never was civil war III which
the victors displayed less vindictiveness toward
the vanquished than in our contest with the
South, there never was one in which, from the
lost SO much. We hear SO little of social life
in the South to-day-for those who lost the
most are the last to haunt their woes-that very
few north of Washington realize al all what
it is; but in truth it can scarcely be said to
exist. Speaking broadly, there is no money
anywhere. Out of New Orleans, hardly a dry
goods shop could be found which would
offer a choice of half dozen silk dresses, and
a Northern lady who passed the winter in Ten
nessee, at a university town, said she didn't
| think there were two dresses of silk among all
| her friends. In Mobile there are said to be
now only three private carriages, and not more
| than that number of persons who would think
of giving any entertainment which in the
North would come under the description of a
dinner party. What is much more serious and
sad is the deterioration of no uncomfortable
portion of the educated and refined class. A
Southern banker asked a friend, a lawyer OF
high standing, who had lately had occasion to
| travel up the country, how he found matters
| He replied that he had found men and women
of education, his former friends and acquaint-
ances, gradually sinking to the level of theil
| own negroes. They have the means of sub
sistence, but that is all not cent to spare fo1
literature any of the arts and sciences Of
life.
To those at the North who live in luxury
who see on every hand evidences of pros
perity, who know of want only in the alb
stract, this brief recital is full of meaning

New York Sun, 18th.
In the Vanderbilt will case, yesterday, Mrs.
Elizabeth Campbell, of Quebec, was witness
for the contestants. She testified that in
1869 and 1870 she boarded at 20 West Fourth
street, with Mrs. Diker, Mrs. Crawford, and
her daughter, who afterWard married Com
modore Vanderbilt, who also lived there.
'Did you ever see William 81. Vanderbilt
in that boarding house while Miss Crawford
was there?' Mr.. Lord asked.
Mr.. Clinton objected, and asked what Mr..
Lord expected to prove by the witness. Mr..
Lord replied without hesitation that he in
tended to prove that, two or three days after
| the witness first saw Miss Crawford in the
boarding house, William II. Vanderbilt be-
came frequent visitor, coming as late as 8
or 9 o'clock in the evening, and on one night

when the witness went home about P. NJ,

went into Miss Crawford's room, and saw
her with nothing on but a chenlise; that
Mss Crawford covered her face with her
cl emise, and then witness retired, saying, Il
beg your pardon and that on the same af-
ternoon in the parlor Miss Crawford avoided
the witness and blushed.

MIR. Clinton denounced the offer as part
of a scheme of blsckmail and SANDER de-
vised by the contestants to blacken the
character of as estimable lady as ever
lived.
/ Mr.. Lord replied hotly that Mr.. Clinton
had no right to denounce as false what the
witness was ready to swear to, and declared
that the testimony proposed was relevant,
because Mrs. Vanderbilt had been charged
with being one Of the conspirators. He in
timated that William 81. Vanderbilt had been
