THE Boston journal (Rep.,) is
weary of political sDarliug, add
speaks out in meeting thus /: "Mas~
sachusetts has more at stake to day
in the prosperity of the Soalh and
in the cultivation of fraternal reIa~
items than any other State The
drift of business westward of US is
tending to insulate New England.
Our commerce has fallen off, and we
must necessarily rely on our trade
and manufactures to maintain onr
former condition and prestige. We
must retain our hold on the Southern
markets and ought to have new ones.
1t is the height of folly to think these
possible unless there is reformation
among our dominant politicians.
This is not to be looked fer. The
great need of our day and condition
is to place men in positions of power
and influence who understand fully
our business relations, and who will
make them specially for study and
Improvement. The sooner this is
learned the better. But it ought
not to be dormant sentiment"

THE Memphis Board of Health on
Saturday formally pronounced the
yellow fever epidemic in that CITY,
The death rate is small in proportion
to the number of cases reported, and
inasmuch as large proportion OF
the population liable to the disease
have left, it is expected that the rate
Of mortality will not exceed in any
week that of the week past. The
total number of cases reported up to
Saturday from the first appearance
of the disease is three hundred,
number of deaths ninety seven. -
Every practical means of disinfection
and local sanitation calculated to ar
rest the disease has been, and will
continue to be, prActiced. Expenses
of nursing, etc, are $500 per day,
will probably increase. No assis-
lance from outside would have been
needed, but negroes have focked
into the city to receive free rations,
and as these furnish food for the dis
ease it may spread and outside aid
will be required.

AMONG the charges which are said
to have been made agaiost Collector
Badger, of New Orleans, and which
have been laid before Secretary
Sherman, is the allegation that TWEEN
ty-seven members of the families of
Wells and Anderson (ootoriously in
strumental in the returning board
frauds of 1860 are drawing pay
as custom house officials, and that
some of them are small children. 1t
is charged that c. B Anderson, son
of Returning Board Tom Anderson,
is on the pay rolls as clerk at 81 500
salary and he never goes to the Gus
tom~house except TO draw his pay.
He lives on a plantation in the int
rior, and boatman with 5000 sal
airy, does all the work for which he
receives 81, 800.

THERE is no paper in the State
held by the press in more esteem,
than the LaGrauge Reporter. Why 7
Because, Waterman, its able editor,
is sincere man, and treats all men
and questions fairly and squarely.-
And it the press would be a power in
the land, welding an influence for
good, their expressed opinions must
have lives back of them that do not
belle in themselves the truths they
wish to impress or the evils they
desire to correct. 1t is the same way
with the citizen he cannot give po>
tency to his opinions and make them
prevail with men, when it is known
that be does not practice what he
breaches, and lives an inconsistent
life.

LITTLE Rock, ARK, Ang. r.
Intelligence from Smishviile, Law
renee county, Ark, states that a
farmer there, whose crops had been
suffering from drought, prayed fer
ventIy for rain. Dry weather con-
tinued, however, and he changed his
prayer into curses, disappearing
everything sacred. Suddenly the
family observed smoke, then sparks
issuing from, his mouth, ears and
nose, succeeded presently By sui
phurous blue flames. He is now at
home, where be PAGES the floor con-
stantly, unable to eat or drink,
while fire and smoke of an uneaFth
ly hue escapes from him day and
night. His sufferings are terrible to
contemplate.

The Legislative committee inves>
tigating the wild land crookedness,
examined Comptroller Goldsni,h's
checks and found some Of them pay
able to newspaper men. A great
fass was raised over this matter,
some demanding to know who res
ceived this money. The Constitu-
ton gratifies this curiosity by pub
fishing their names. P. f. Lawshe,
the independent editor Of the Gaines
vile Southron, received 500, drawn
July Stb, and Marcellus Z. Thorn
ton, the independent leader, and cor
respondent Of the Augusta News, re-
ceived $50, drawn July 14th.-
They are the only newspaper men
who received Goldsmith's questiona-
Bile money. So it seems that these
independent Pharisees, after all their
abuse of the Democrats, are no bet
ter than the rest of mankind The At
lanta Photograph says it was offered
money not to write an editorial on
the wild land committee report and
rejected the bride.

AN idea of the immensely of the
Krupp gun works in Germany may
be gle aned from the following: One
establishment employs $500 work
men, and contains 29S boilers and
engines, combining 10000 horse
power. These operate, with other
machinery, II trip hammers. the
heaviest of which weighs 100, 600
pounds. Fifteen thousand cannon
have been turned out since 1877,
and the average is 800 month. -
Over 5000 tons of coal are used
daily; 81, 900 gas Jets are 10 use; a
railroad track with "A locomotives
and 700 trucks connects the works
with the nearest railway; in the
mines connected with the works
there are $500 workmen the com
pany gets its ir IN ore from is own
lands in the north of Spain, and uses
five steamers of its own to bring it
over there have been built 327S
tenements for the employees, and
10 200 persons live in these. This
city of employees has also four com
mon and one industrial schools.

SINGULAR PHENOMENON.

William Langley, a cotton planter
of Gwinnett county, was standing 10
field on his farm. Around him
we're several men, woman and
three children, Gil breaking the soil
for cotton. The sky was clear and
the air quiet, there being about both
hint of sultr;ness. The children
had just stopped work and throHn
themselves, tired as tired could be,
on the top of pile of guano sacks,
when a peculiar roaring was heard
ia the field. The sound bore some
resemblance to that of an approach
iug train, but as no railroads were
near, the workers looked at one an
other in amazement. Ia moment
they saw small column not larger
10 circumference than barrel, skim
rapidly aIoug the ground. The wind
column or spout appeared to be I'LL
ed with dust, and in the center con
tanned what looked like ball of fire.
The mother rushed towards the chill
dren, who crouched low in fright.
but before she could reach them the
pile of gaano bags, children and all
were scattered right and left. In It's
course, always eccentric, the column
struck stump fairly from butt to
roots. and tore it from the ground,
the wood splitting into three pieces,
and dropping twenty or thirty yards
away. Mr.. Langley was sucked 10
as the whirling thing bolted by and
thrown into plowed gully some dis
lance away. In the next instant
the strange visitor had gone, passing
up over the tops of the trees. 1t
was seen plainly by the ladies at the
Langley House, appearing to them
like the smoke that rushes up in cir
cular volumes from the smok stack
of a locomotive.

Mrs Dorsey's property amounted
to only $50, 900 aud not to $3.50, 600.
Her income was 81 250 per annum,
less 1892 iu taxes. She owed 3d.
900, Last Spring she made a bona
tide sale of the Boauvoir place to Mr..
Davis for So, 800, for which he gave
his notes, running for one. two and
three years. So Mr.. Davis has not
the bonanza some people imagined,
and not enough to tempt the cupid
ty of any reputable lawyer at the
North.

THE Cochran Enterprise will soon
eclipse Eli Perkins, Christopher and
George Alfred Townsend if it tells a
few more like the following: "a
man who doesn't live a hundred miles
from Cochran, who went regularly
to bed one night and dreamed he
was sitting on rock fishing, and
when be woke up there he was &C
tually sitting on the rock and had
