American manufacturers will be in
terested, and not encouraged, by the
statement that there has been this year
an increase of exports from Great Brit
ain to the United States, as compared
with the corresponding period of 1873.
This is true of almost every article on
the list, the largest increase being in
cotton goods, silks, ribbons, wool, and
pig and railroad iron. Although the
general showing is not favorable to
American manufacturing interests, the
statement of the totals of British ex.
ports and imports is not fattering to
British commerce, both branches Of
trade showing decided decrease, as
compared with the exports and imports
of 1873. 1t is early to calculate with
any degree of accuracy the changes in
the balance of trade which will be
made by an English demand for Amer
lean grain and breadstuffs. A we'll.
known English authority estimates the
outcome of the British grain crop at o
third less than the average. A large
importation of wheat will be required
1t will also be noticed that agriculture
reports from Central Europe indicate
that considerable deficiency in grair
crops has been caused by long-contlnuec
drought.

Frank Dixon, the brother of the Yazoo

Frank Dixon, the brother of the Yazoo
victim, arrived at Washington Monday,
to the complete surprise of his family,
who did not expect him. He explains
his sudden flight from Mississippi by
saying that he became tired of going to
bed with his shot gun every night, hour
ly expecting to be called upon by some
of the mob that murdered his brother.
He finally yielded to the counsel of his
friends and left the State. He gives a
very painful account of his brothers
death. The wound which the latter re-.
ceived in his kidneys from Barksdale's
shot gun was SO painful that while he
was being carried to his residence on a
litter he uttered the most agonizing
shrieks. His funeral was largely attend
ed, and on the same day the Independents
of Yazoo held a mass meeting, and de-
termined to stand by the Independent
ticket which is still in the field. Mr..
Dixon says that his brother seems to
have had premonition of danger. and
that few days before his murder he
had begun to write full statement of
his relation to the Mississippi democracy,
and the part he had played in its affairs.
He did not finish writing the paper,
but had 10 pages of it in his pocket
when he was shot. Strange to say. al
though search was made for this paper
as soon as the victim was taken 20 his
house, it could not be found. There
are people in Mississippi who believe
that those who had been previously
identified with Dixon became aware of
the latter's intention to write a con-
fession of his sins, and rather than run
the risk of having the statement pub
lished, they decided to kill its author.

MORE JEALOUS THAN DISCREET.

1t really seems as though those cut
throat chevaliers, the Mississippi Demo-
Gratis, were allowing their zeal for the
cause of reform to outrun their discre-
ton, and getting so far in advance of
the latter are ID aaige + OF Struggling
and getting picked up by the enemy.
Their murderous methods may challenge
the admiration of "the wealth, intelli-
gence and culture" of the solid South,
and as long as those methods were used
only to put a few negroes and white
Republicans in their graves, and scarce
those that were permitted to live away
from the POLLS no Northern Democrat
called them in question but up here in
New England there are few men who
have always voted the Democratic ticket,
who. to say the least, do not think it
discreet just before presidential cleo.
ton to deliberately murder, in public
street. in broad daylight, such promi-
nent member of the party as Col. H. NJ.
Dixon of YazoO county, Mississippi, for
boiling the regular nomination.
To be sure, this murder was all regu-
lar. 1t was part of the campaign
mapped out by the Democratic State
committee and tacitly approved by that
polished specimen of the reconstructed
rebel, Senator Lamar, and the brave and
loyal patriots Barksdale and Singleton,
and the whole Democratic delegation in
Congress. And then. again. it was no
worse than hundreds of other Mississippi
murders, and not half as brutal as the
Chisholm massacre, which no Democrat
ic convention has ever condemned even
in the mildest terms,-but Col. Dixon
was Democrat. He never voted any
other ticket. He was prominent in
wrestling the State from carpet baggers
and negroes, and in doing it, if report
be true, killed his full share of the ene-
my, and on this account, if no other, he
would seem to have been entitled to
some consideration to which a Republi.
can could lay no claim.

Hayti, that miserable country of revo-
buttons and tumult, seems to be drifting
further and further from peace within its
borders and the respect of civilization.
The north is under the control of the
liberals under Bazelais, and the south of
General Lamotte, under the nationals.
The provisional government despatched
the war steamer "l804" with troops
against the liberals, but the vessel has
returned, unable to land troops at Cape
Haytien or Gonaives. On the eighth the
1854" blew up in Port-au- Prince har.
Dor and became a total wreck, several
persons being killed and wounded. The
catastrophe deprived the country of its
only war steamer. The explosion is sup.
posed to have been the result Of party
spirit among the officers. 1t Is affirmed
that the national party have sent fol
General Solomon, now living in Jamaica
to become the head of the government
The decision of the quarrel may cause ,
great deal of bloodshed and the compli
cations an ENHANCEMENT the result o.
which probabilities cannot foreshadow.

i WASHINGTON, Aug. 26, 1879.
While it seems certain that Mr.. Til
den will be the next Democratic candi-
date for the Presidency, it is equally
certain that there will be powerful op-
position not only in his own state but
in that part of the country which has
been supposed to favor his candidacy
most. Senator Wade Hampton is re-
ported as saying to an interviewer that
Thurman or Bayard will be the next
Democratic nominee for the Presidency.
Hampton's choice was thus announced i:

ator thought that Sherman rather than
Grant would be the Republican nominee.
The word of Hampton goes long way
in South Carolina and other Southern
States.

THE FAIL ELECTIONS.

The first state election of much impor-
lance this fall is that in Maine, which
takes place the second Monday, in Sep
tember-the Sth. The Greenbackers
and Democrats together were strong,
enough last year to defeat the Republi-
can candidate for governor. This year
these parties tried to unite on the Green
back candidate for governor, feeling sure
that such union would defeat the Re-
publicans. But as the canvass has pro-
ceeded, great many voters have been
found who were Greenbackers last year,
but this year have renowned Greenback-
ism and returned to the Republican par
ty-so many that the Republican vote
of the state will be as strong as ever.
Encouragement, that took the place of
doubt, has now grown to be strong con-
fdence. The Maine Republicans feel
sure of success. Secretary Sherman's
tS haze sg byRs SGgsa fB'
the Greenbackers, but there are hund
reds of Democrats who will not vote fol-
the Greenback candidate.
The election in Ohio takes place thu
second Tuesday in October. All thu
t signs indicate great Republican tri
| umph in that state, and all the Demo
, Gratis appear to expect it. Mr.. Morrison
q of Illinois, who has made tour of oh
4 servation among the Ohio Democrats
t finds lack of enthusiasm, and talks o
: the subject as if he were considerably dis
n couraged. The Cincinnati Commercial
e we'll known as ian independent journal,
o says: Everything points to a thunde
d ing Republican victory in Ohio this fall.
We hope and expect that the CONNIE
ciaFs judgment of the situation wi
u prove correct. There are various reason
81 why the Republican canvass is stror
le and hopeful, while that of the Democra
< is discouraging. The influence of tt
y extra session of congress is felt, and Il
III Democrats have made the matter wor
ne by maneuvering to draw the Greenbac
u ers into their ranks. Mr.. Ewing's We

THE FALL RIVER STRIKE.

We suppose there are plenty of honest
people and sensible people in Fall River,
but, as far as appearances 60, the knaves
and the fools are in a decided majority
down there. A good share of the capt.
al invested there has been stolen by
thieving treasurers and agents, and what
is left is in fair way to be wasted by
the criminal folly of mill managers and
operatives, who are now, as usual, en-
gagged in costly struggle over the ques-
ton of wages.
Both sides are undoubtedly, to blame,
and both are being severely punished,
but at this distance it looks as if the
me milf OTRs s are losing T PGfSoht5, ' ana,
perhaps, inviting bankruptcy, but the
operatives are losing, or deliberately
throwing away, their bread and butter,
and inviting starvation. This being
the case, the result is not doubtful. The
strike will end as ninety-nine out of ev-
cry hundred do end-in the triumph Of
the corporations. The loss of wages to
the strikers is about 100000 per week,
and as they are, almost without excep.
ton, people who had nothing laid up to
live upon, ten weeks of enforced idleness
has reduced them to beggary and com.
PEELED them to exc out an existence upon
the small contributions received from
sympathizers elsewhere. The end tc
this manner of living will come before
long. and they will have to 60 to work
again upon employers terms or become
paupers. The loss of profits to the mills
must be nearly 100000 per week.

A REMARKABLE ACHIEVEMENT.

Nothing is easier than to accuse a
public servant Of dishonesty. Many men
do this thoughtlessly. They take it for
granted that man who has the oppor-
tunity to steal the public money will
steal it. Others, and especially the
talking politicians of the Opposition
party. use the accusation as part of
their political ammunition. They hurl
charges of corruption at the ofice-hold-
ing portion of their opponents as though
honesty and good faith were virtues to
which every one who accepts an Office at
once bids farewell. That so sweeping
an accusation is unjust need hardly be
insisted upon; for if the Government
were represented in all its branches by
men as vile as the picture drawn Of
them, the nation would have been bank.
rupt in purse and character long ere this.
Besides, what slur is it upon the PEG.
pie themselves, from whose ranks the
ofice-holdcrs are taken! Many public
servants have stolen the public money
there can be no doubt of that. But we
do not believe it to be true that every
American citizen only wants the oppor.
tunity of access to the public treasury to
begin Immediately to steal from it.
A good illustration of the groundless
ness of this general charge of corruption
in Office is furnished in letter from Mr.
| Raum, the Commissioner of Interna
Revenue, to Secretary Sherman, direct
ing attention to the faithful collection O.
the revenue throughout the United States
during the past year. Commissioner
Raum says:
At the close of the fiscal year ending
June 80, 1879, caused careful ex
Examination to be made Of the records anc
accounts of each Collector of Interna
Revenue throughout the United States

only success which it had was to enable

The Tribune publishes interviews with
large number of prominent business
men on trade prospects, and says the
leading business men of New York ex-
press belief that the times are steadily
improving. The abundant harvests in
the West and South are cited as the
basis for this belief. A revival of man.
ufacturing interests in different parts of
the country is also mentioned as a proof
of returning prosperity. Prices in all
departments of trade are firm, with a
tendency to rise. In many cases the
volume of business for the past six months
shows an increase over that of any COR
responding period since 1873, and in
every instance the volume of business
thus far for the present season is consid
erably in excess of last year. Intelli

News from Maine continues to b
bright with the promise of coming victo
ry. All Republican authorities in tn
State, editors and politicians, agree il

rests on a sure foundation. He estimate
that 5000 Republicans who voted witt

to their old party this year; that tn
combined Democratic and Greenbacl
vote will be in the neighbOrhood of 60,
900, and that the Republican vote will
be between $4,000 and 10000. Tn
hard work which the Republicans hav
done is the main reason for this crafty
ing outlook, but they have had power
