Respectfully Submitted.

To the Democratic leaders who are
telling the people what the Northern
Republicans would have done for the
South if she had thrown herself into
their loving and tender arms, and are
threatening new alliances in that direc-
ton in consideration of Pacific Railroads
and subsidies, We would respectfully
commend the following extract from a
recent speech of Hon. G. a. Grow, a
Republican leader in Pennsylvania:
1t is of paramount importance that the
Republican party should have majority in
the House of Representatives In the next
Congress, not only To guard the Treasury
against the Southern war claims that will
be pressed for payment, but also to guard
the labor and industrial interests of the
country against the free-trade tendencies
of the controlling elements of the Demo-
cratic party. And in order to secure con-
tnued ascendency in the United States
Senate it is of equal importance chat a ma
iority OF Republicans should be returned to
the State Legislature.
And in this connection, here is some
thing from the n. Y. Tribune, an organ
of the Hayes Republicans:
When it is considered that Southern war
claims, aggregating $350,000,000, are either
pending before Congress and the tribunals,
or awaiting in the hands of the claim agents
favorable opportunity tor presentation, it
would seem to be quite time that Congress
men should begin to study the ques-
tiOns involved i'll their consideration, with
view not oIly of clearing away a great
clog to the wheels OF legislation but of
guarding against the danger, which is emf
nent, that the National Treasury will be
robbed of its revenues and the country
burdened with an enormous additional
debt.

The Freedman's Bank swindIe

A report has been sent out from
Washington that Congressman Whit
thorne writes to a friend in this city that
as soon as Congress meets in Deem
Der, he will take measures to expose and
bring to justice the men organized in
the conspiracy to rob the Freedmen's
Bank. That there was deliberate con-
spiracy to rob the bank he thinks there
is ample proof. He has been making q
careful examination of the records TO see
whether the original trustees cannot be
held responsible for the loss in civil suit.
The Freedman's Bank, like every other in
corporation, was chartered by Congress
(by the way, where did Congress get its
authority under the constitution
it to grant the charter?) and
we are perfectly willing that Congress
should investigate its management, but
we repel as utterly preposterous the as
sumption that the people at large should
be taxed with the losses. The people
who entrusted their earnings to the keep
ing of the exclusive friends of the col
ored race" must bear the consequences
of their own folly, and profit by their
experience. The government has no au-
thority to tax one portion of the com
munlty to compensate another class for
their had Investments

THE Boston Journal Republican
thinks that "there is in effect but one
issue before the people of the Northern
States, and that is, whether or not the
country will have an honest dollar, and
whether or not the Government will
faithfully keep its promises to the credi-
tors. Its promises to its creditors were
to pay them in greenbacks, but the
Journal means gold which is according
to the contract after it was charged at
the Instance of the bondholders."

state Relief 10 the Yellow Fever
Sufferers.

The communication of Hon. III. NJ. Street
published in another column is creditable
to his head and his heart. The yellow
fever is growing to such dimensions in
our State that it deserves to be treated as
public matter, worthy of the attention
of the State authorities. We trust that
each member of the Legislature will cor
respond with the Governor at once on the
subject in accordance with the suggestion
of Mr.. Street.

The yellow fever has made rapid
strides since our last. 1t has almost
literally devastated Grenada - sparing
neither age nor sex. But few of those
who remained to face it have been
spared. It's introduction was so sudden,
and progress so rapid, that numbers
were in its grasp before they were aware
of it, In a short time, its work of de-
struction will be complete, because there
will be no more victims for it to feed up
on. In. Vicksburg, after Ominous
threatenings in sporadic form for several
weeks, it burst forth like a thunderstorm
five or six..days ago, and its subsequent
ravages have been fearful.
In Canton there were indications of
the disease two or three weeks ago, Civ
ing rise to ..ominous surmises and
vague conjectures, which have developed
into a dreadful certainty, and the disease
has at last got its start, The rest may
be imagined. Fortunately most OF the
citizens have left town.
Memphis held out bravely for time,
but she has at last been overtaken by
the scourge, and it is doing fearful work.
We have heard of some one or two
cases, by importation, in Water Valley,
Grand Junction and other points, but
they seem not to have spread. There is
no telling, however, what a day may
brino forth.

NOW LOTTERIES IRE MiNAGED.
Methods OF an Association for the Beneat OF
Widow. nnd Orphans.

Suit was instituted by the Southern Asso-
citation for the Benefit of Widows and Orr,.7ns
against Benjamin Wood. J. C. Butts. Henry 81
ton. Nathaniel $. Morse. and Chas. II. Murray.
In July. 1867 the Legislature of Virginia incor-
porated the plaintiffs rs n society. They ac-
quired nnda at low price. The act OF incorpora-
ton empowered them 10 dispose Of this land 10y
any scheme OF chance. such NJ n rafic. though
they were not authorized TO have Il lottery.
which is prohibited by the statutes Of Virginia.
The defendants signed bond for $50. 900 to the
plaintiffs. which bond referred To- u contract

mcnt oi the contract. Butts was TO have the cX-

month. and 81 100 u year to II person 10 bc
named on behalf oi the society as general man
aE"r. Tho bond was conditional ON the fulfil
ment by him OF that contract. Butts had charge
for about seven months. and ts he did not pay.
this suit was instituted against the signcrs Of
the bond. II was urged on the part OF tho de-
fence that the contract was void rs against pub
he policy. nS the nc, sought tn be done was UNI
constitutional; that bribery and corruption were
used on the part of members Of the association
TO induce the passage of the act through tho
Legislature.
Lyman Emore was the only witness for the
plaintiff IN the trial Yesterday before Judge Wal
lace, and he simply Identified the bonds and the
signatures. On crpss-cNhminAtinn he said that
the only connection he hal with the case was To
endeavor as "A lawyer to eNtricate "A client. VIM.

Henry 4. Wise cX-Governor Of Virginia has
made deposition in tho case. in which he says
that SO far ns he knew, the southern Associa-
ton was all right. He named among the di-
rectors Of the dissertation his own son, the son
81 Bishop Dudley Of the Episcopal Church. and
Frank VI. Ballard whom he described as Of
well-known rcpute In Richmond. Mr.. Wise
described himself. rs he was accustomed To do.
as an undisguised and unrcpcntant rebel"
Though the drawing WAS nominnlly for land
II was actually for money. ms all the prizes were
paid in money. There was a regular graded
system OF risks. as in policy playing, with urin-
cpal numbers, the winner getting a lnrg"r sum
when guessing the first number. Judge Wal
