The Ladd Murderers.

When the murderers of Amos Ladd
were up in the United States Court, on
the 10th instant, on a writ of .hd6eas
corpus and motion for release on bail
was made, Judge Bryan very properly
refused the motion until due notice had
been served upon the Solicitor of tho
Eighth Circuit, SIS the representative of
the State of South Carolina, against
whose laws the prisoners had offended.
1t is to be hoped that no legal punctilio
will prevent the Solicitor from being
present at the renewal of the motion,
and it is no disrespect to Col. Cothran to
say that it is also to be hoped that the
Attorney General of the State will be
present to assist him in opposing any
effort to release the murderers from con-
6nement
The official position of Mr.. Youmans,
and his remarkable forensic ability and
legal attainments, would make his assis-
tance invaluable to the Solicitor, and
would doubtless have great weight with
the Court. The case is one in which the
honor and reputation of the State are at
stake, and which consequently impera-
lively demands the presence of the At
torncy General. The prisoners are ruff
ans who, under the authority of United
States commission, either recklessly or
maliciously granted, for a long time ha-
rassed and prosecuted the people of the
mountain districts of South Carolina,
until their vicious career finally cuI.57i-
mated in the d;abolical murder of Amos
LadI, for which they were arrested by
the State authorities. Their case has
been transferred to the United States
Courts with view of shielding them
from the consequences of their crime,
and it is due to jnstice and humanity, as
we'll as to this State and people, that
every such attempt should be thwarted.
The friends and relatives Of Amos Ladd
are poor, hard-working mountain people
unable to pay the expenses of proper
prosecution of his murderers, and in this
case they are only the representatives of
hundreds of other citizens of South Car
olina who have been made the victims of
the most persistent and outrageous op.
preston by lawless officers OF the law.
The State should protect them, and in
order that this may be properly done,
both the Attorney General and tie So
licitor of the Eighth Circuit should take
part in every phase of this trial, and
secure, if possible, the just punishment
of these offenders against humanity and
the law of the land.-Ne,os and Courier.

LoNDoN.-Of all great cities London,
on the whole, contains the most to inter-
est and instruct Americans. Its mere
growth is marvellous. 1t has doubled in
population in the memory of men still
young. Most of our readers remember
when Macaulay's History appeared. In
his first volume the author contrasted the
grandeur of the modern city with the
London of Charles ii, and boasted that
the number of inhabitants had increased
from littlesmore than half million to
at least nineteen hundred thousand. In
the brief time that has passed since
Macaulay wrote, the one, million nine
hundred thousand has become four mil
lions. A few extracts taken from the
best estimates will give some suggestion
of the immense magnitude of the city.
1t is aptly described as "a province GOV.
cred with houses" New York is equal
in population to the aggregate of Maine
and New Hampshire, Vermont, Rhode
Island, Connecticut, Massachusetts, and
California, all together. To equal the
city of London here, we should have to
bring together all the people of the fol-
lowing cities New York, Philadelphia,
Brooklyn, st. Louis, Chicago, Boston,
Baltimore, Cincinnati, New Orleans, Bul.
falo, San Francisco, Washington and
Louisville. The transient people in
New York arc about thirty thousand, in
London one hundred aud sixty thousand.
In New York a babe is born every fifteen
minutes, and death occurs once in sew
enteen minutes. In London {. birth
occurs every six minutes, and death
every eight. The drinking places in
New York set in one street would extend
seventeen miles, those in London seven
ty-three miles. The hugeness of Lou
don makes it an uninspectable labyrinth
to the majority Of visitors. They see a
little here and there, but the wealth and
variety of detail in all that interests the
mind is too great for any tourist to mas,
ter who does not 60 Systematically and
intelligently about it. Taking up these
yolumes on the great city, after having
made seven visits there, we find that we
have not begun to see what we desire TO.

RarnI1m,s Eat Woman,

No circus is now considered complete
unless it has an enormously fat woman
in a side t1lt. As Barnum has the
"the greatest show on earth," he OF
course has the fattest woman. Yet of
the thousands of curious people who an
nually visit this monstrosity, few ever re-
fleet that her obesity is disease. Until
very recently there WAS no known reme-
DIV for this abnormal condition. Allan's
Anti-Fat has proved more efficacious
than even the most sanguine hopes of
its discoverer had anticipated. BY its
use even Barnum's lat woman could be
reduced to graceful and even delicate
proportions. Sold by all druggists.

Nothing. Do they contain notices Of

matters of interest which your own paper
publishes without pay? Not an item.
Do they ever say Il word calculated to
draw attention to your county and aid in
