home, Hendricks skulking In Indiana,
said nothing. The New York Sun
was the loudest, most cowardly and
contemplate bowler for peace and sub
mission amongst the dough-faeed papers Of
the North. The Southern Democrats read
It's mean, servile and piteous editorial with a
sickening disgust or with righteous indig-
nation. Not man in the loyal North, not q
journal there, dared to talk Of resistance.
The men who, inspired by venomous hate of
the South, had fought to crush the Confed-
eracy were unwilling to shed drop of blood
TO preserve the constitution and vindicate the
freedom OF elections. The South looked
around In establishment, Indignation and dis
may. What was she to do? She was unable
to make the fight herself, and il she had at
tempted to do 80, Northern Democrats and
Republicans alike would have combined to
crush her The now blatant hero OF the !S,,,
would have been the first and the ioudest to
depounce her and cheer on the allied leyalists
to "wipe her out"
Under the circumstances. the South had
nothing to do but to get the best terms she
could. She made sort of treaty, we pre-
sumo. by which three of her States were re-
lieved from the terrible curse Of carpet-bag
thieves. If the Presidency passed into the
hands of O. man who was not entitled to 1t;
If base conspiracy against the constitution
was successful, the cause Of it must be traced
to the miserable eowardiee of the North, end
not, as the Sun charges, to the treachery OF
the South, or to the terms the South may
have made for self-protection.
If this great crime can now be fully exposed
and punished we guarantee that no Southern
Democrat in or out of Congress will refuse
his support to the means necessary to that
end. It is needless therefore, for the New
York Sun to try to defame Southern men with
the view OF fixing the responsibility OF the
presidential. fraud upon them. Ii there has
been cowardice and treachery. it has been on
the part Of the Northern supporters of Tilden
and Hendricks and not on our part. We were
ready to fight in 1876. and we are ready to in
vestigate, expose and punish in 1873; the
Southern Democracy, in short, now and at all
times, are on the side of the constitution.

Joe jefferson, it seems is very clever
amateur painter, as well as a most excellent
actor. An English landscape of his is very
highly commended by the art critics of New
York, In which city he has allowed it to be
placed on exhibition. The critic of the World
thus discourses of its merits:
It is q picture Of considerable size, and
shows the painter to be a close and faithful
student of nature Ina her sweetest and most
attractive moods. In tone and sentiment it
belongs to the school Of Corot, and that mas
ter of the moonlight and the dawn would have
gazed upon 1t with cordial delight It repre-
OF quiet forest brock, where an angler
dreamily wanders under the shade Of chin
mering birches and slders. Certain technical
criticisms will suggest themselves to The
technical critic who gives the work the close
study it merits; but those who seek the pleas
ure OF the eye and the Touch Of sentiment
more than all things else In works of art will
dwell with genuine enjoyment upon the true
poetic sentiment, the harmonious quality
and the simple, nnstrained composition of
this unique and interesting contribution to
American art.

TO SUMMER TOURISTS.

The great Jackson Route offers the greatest
inducements to Eastern and European trav
elers this season. 1t should be known to all
that this line has been immensely improved
during the past year. It has, in fact, been al
most entirely rebuilt. It now has q fine steel
rail track, laid upon new ties and an excellent
road-bed. This enables it to make as fast
time as any line TO New York with entire
safety and without the appearance Of rapid
running, it's connections from Cincinnati and
Chicago being among the finest roads In the
world. Attention Is especially called to the fact
that the jackson Route runs two daily trains
to New York and all the principal Eastern and
Northern cities. The train leaving at D. m,
one hour later than any other line, makes ex-
actly the same time to New York as it's
quickest rival; and the a. m. train makes
one and half hour quicker time to New
York than any other train from New Orleans.
There are no through cars to Nep York By any
line The Jackson Route has but one change
Of cars, which is made in Union depot, Gin
cfnnaH, at s a. m.
Passengers direct to New York by theJack-
son Route pass through the splendid scenery
and cool air of the Allegheny Mountains. Those
going by Chicago pass by daylight in full
view of Niagara Falls, and also have but one
change of cars from New Orleans to New
York.

In a recent issue Of the New Orleans Times

In recent issue of the New Orleans Times
we are pleased to see the following very just
and deserved tribute to the Hon. G. W. Jones,
United States Senator from Florida
The elear-headed and vigilant manner in
which Senator Jones has always come to the
front when Southern interests were at stake,
is deserving of specialrecord, in which we are
always ready to join:
We have received copy Of the speech deliv-
cred by Senator Jones, of Florida, in the SEN
ate on the twenty-first Of March, on the sub
ject of trespasses on public lands, and find it
an able and complete ventilation Of the whole
subject Senator Jones, by his action in this
matter, has given another proof of his devo-
tion to the interests of the people, regardless
of State and sectional lines.

One of the mysteries OF criminal law has
been the case of Constance Kent, who muir
dered her little brother and escaped detection,
but afterwards was convicted ON her own con-
fession. 1t appeared so improbable that a
young girl, evidently of sound mind and
without any apparent motive, should be
capable of such a brutal crime that public
opinion refused to believe her confession and
held her guiitless. This case was cited by
DIR. Hammond In his Interview published in
the Herald sometime since, In relation to the
value of confessions, as an instance Of prob
able false self-accusation, resulting from
hallucination or hysteria. But the secret of
this remarkable murder was recently dis
closed In a medical lecture delivered in Lon
don by the eminent DR.. Bucknill. The char
acter of the witness forbids any further doubt
OF the guilt Of the girl and the truth Of her
confession, which are rendered probable by
the disclosure of motive, the absence of
which was the sole cause of doubt. The state
ment Is clipped from the New York Tribune,
and reads as follows:
In discussing the legal relations of insanity,
Dr. Bucknill remarked that the most singu
lar case In which he had ever been concerned
her young brother, and escaped detection.
After an interval OF several years truly con-
scientious motive led her to confess, and
DIR. Bucknill examined her for the purpose OF
ascertaining whether 1t would be right to
enter the plea of mot guilty on the ground of
insanity" He was compelled to advise against
It, and her counsel admitted that the experts
could not do otherwise. By her own wish he
published a letter in which the material facts
Of the crime were described, but as the motive
was not disclosed the case was still envelOped
In mystery; for how could young girl, who
was not insane, have murdered her beautiful

According to Herbert Spencer andthe new
sociologists, marriage had its origin in vio-
lence. The accounts of savage tribes show
that the primitive man lay in wait for the
woman he had selected to be his wife and
knocked her down and dragged her to his
tent. We can't speak with 80 much assur-
ance Of how the institution began, but we do
know that It frequently ends in that way.

THELAND OF THE MISSING.

In our issue of yesterday we puollshed
special dispatch from Simpsons Sta
ton, on the Baltimore and Ono road,
between Grafton and Clsrksburg, re-
garding the finding of boys body on
the track, with nothing to identity II
save a cross tat:ooed in blue ink
on his arm and the clothe;
he wore. This was read throughout the
city by many careless readers who simply
said, "another man killed on the railroad
some tramp 1 guess" but this was not
the way the news was received by al
Within twelve hours after the REGISTER
appeared containing the dispatch, no lee:
than four eager, anxious iDquirers en-
desvored TO obtain further in.
formation on the subject and two
dispatches were received from LeighDor-
ing towns to the same purport. What 3
sad insight this gives into some Of the
homes of this city and the vicinity. In
the short space of time mentioned, six
fathers or mothers have shown that there
is q skeleton of gigantic Prortion8
in their households, that holds
in its bony hand weapon
like the sword of Dsmocles, suspended
by hair, and they knew not when it
would fall upon them and lnhiCt wound
upon their hearts that could be healed by
no physician save time, They had way
ward sons who were forced to be absent
from them by the stern DEGREES
of poverty and they could
not tell where their boy was or whether
it was his remains that were found all
msngled beyond recognition. Few of US
realize the sorrow that exists in the lsml-
ly circle of our closest neighOor, and it is
only such occasions as this, that bares
them to the eyes of the world.
The body OF young girl was found
in the river between New York and
Brooklyn several years ago and des-
cription of the body was published and
those who desired to see it were re-
quested to call at the morgue. We were
at the morgue on the morning alter the
announcement and one of the ssddest
spectacIes that ever presented itseIf
to humanity was the throng Of
anxious seekers for those who were
in the land of the missing.
Two hundred and three fathers,
mothers, brothers, sisters or husbands
came 10 sec the body as it lay on the
marble slab, with q small stream of water
falling upon it, and al wentsway without
fn1ing the dear one whom they sought.
1t was found afterward that she came
from London, and had thrown herself
recklcssly to ruin. Her relatives proba-
bly, never knew OF her death, and thus
she passed from the land of the missing,
with its horror and despair, into the
land of eternity and rest.
