SEC. SHERMAN'S SPEECH AT
boston.

The following extract from Secretary
Sherman's speech, delivered in Boston
last Tuesday evening, will be read with
interest:
while it is true in theory that under
our system of government all the peo-
pie enjoy the privilege of equal rights,
and have equal opportunity to acquire
wealth and distinction, 1 am sorry to
say that it is not entirely true in fact.
All men do not enjoy equal rights. The
same love of liberty and justice does
not prevail in all parts of the country.
The schools and colleges which you
enjoy and which are the foundation of
your greatness, are not established in
all parts of our country; but other
sections have advantages which you
have not. They have a far more fruit
full soil; a more genial climate; vast un-
cultivated acres ready for the pillow;
undeveloped mines, and a capacity Of
production compared to which the
valleys of the Nile and the Danube are
Insignificant. Over all these broad
regions the power of the national gov
eminent is acknowledged, and will be
asserted more and more with the
growth Of population and advance of
prosperity. We all know that the
business men Of Boston and other cities
have interests in every part of our
country; that their energy and money
have aided to build up the great cities
OF the west; to extend the lines of rail-
road reaching into every state and ter
ritory; that your active surplus popula-
tion have found homes in every commu-
nifty and the influence of your institu-
tions is felt everywhere.
what WI desire in this country is
to cultivate the broadcast national feel
ing, so that the men and women and
children Of our country may go any
where within the limits of the United
States; everywhere respected; every
where protected; equal to each other;
and by mingling their ideas, their in
dustries and their principles, they make
real and actual all the great ideas of
the founders of our government, so
that liberty, equality and fraternity
may exist among American citizens
wherever II national Jurisdiction ex-
tends; and that all alike from the north
and south will look upon the national
government as the supreme protector
and preserver of all Of their rights and
privileges as citizens of a common
country"

Gov. CoLoUITT, of Georgia, has
announced his purpose Of offering a
reward for the capture of the murder
ers of the Mormon elder killed in
Coloosa county July 21st. He has re-
ceived information from a trustworthy
source that it was a cold-blooded MUIR
der, committed without excuse. 1t Is
said that the perpetrators a be easily
taken when desired, though it may be
difficult to fix the actual shooting on
any one man. There were many men
and women who had become converts
to the polygamic faith and had .ex-
pressed their determination to leave for
Utah. This incensed their friends and
relatives, who several times threatened
the elders with summary treatment If
they did not leave the country. There
is NO doubt that the crowd that waylaid
the elders for the avowed purpose of
whipping them, intended to handle
them roughly, and shot one of them in
the heat of the assault, and then scat
tered in fear of what they had done. 1t
appears that for years there has been a
sort of Mormon headquarters on Look
out mountain, from whence the elders
were sent through Carolina, Tennessee
and Georgia, and where converts were
sent to wait for a crowd before leaving
for Utah. Several parties have been
already shipped off, and the surround
ing country has been infected with
elders ever since. The appearance of a
Mormon elder always created excite
ment in a moral community.

Telephones and Electric Lights.
Edison has Just sent a man to Eng
land with so telephones ON a new prin-
ciple and of exceeding delicacy, to ad-
apt them to the humidity of the Eng
lish climate. He proposes to establish
with these a telephone exchange in
London. AS to the electrice light, Mr.
Edison says: II have supplied six elect
ric lights from one horsepower These
cost me just about one-third as much as
three similar gas-burners will cost gas
manufacturers. l claim that this solves
the question:" He is still perfecting
the machinery for generation. so as to
have it all right when manufactured in
quantity.

How to Relieve Memphin.

The terrible scourge of the south is
again looming up as a dark cloud on
the horizon, spreading dismay among
the people Immediately threatened, and
sympathetic sorrow in every heart not
dead to the dictates OF humanity. The i'm
mediate future of Memphis, if the fever
assumes epidemic type, will be absolute
ly appalli ng. Many families, driven
away last year by the plague, spent
every dollar their utmost credit could
raise in their unhappy exlle-and re-
turned at last, when the fever had abat-
ed, to find that their houses had been
pillaged Of all provisions and supplies
and of every portable article of furni-
ture. With only their unhappy home
steads left, despoiled of business and of
household goods, these families have
fingered along during the winter and
spring months, brooding we the losses
and sorrows Of the past, and drearily
wondering if Providence had yet other
walls Of wrath to pour out on their
wretched city. Their worst fears ap-
pear about TO be realized, and blank
despair is settling down upon them.
They are devoid of means; fight again
is hopeless; the prison doors Of a cruel
quarantine are shut against them one
whole month earlier than last year;
provisions are nearly exhausted; en-
ployment is impossible; there seems to
be no labor ahead but for the diggers of
graves and drivers of dead carts. The
Borrowing households of fathers, moth
ers and children, are shut up to the
charnel house and the gravel And all
this in a land Of Christian charity-in a
nation instinct with life and spirit, ex-
haustless in resources, with railroad
transportation equal to the work of de-
populating Memphis in a day, its people
inspired by a courage that has faced
death in a thousand forms in a recent
bloody war. What has become of the
brave spirit, the power and humanity
of this people, that they pale and cover
before the pestilence and leave their I'M
happy brethren OF a striker city to die
In poverty, loneliness and despair?
Why should not means be provided
at once to remove all the helpless and
as yet well people of Memphis to places
of safety, far from the plague spot
where the grave yawns for themP There
are the mountains and valleys of east
Tennessee in easy reach-pure, breezy
and healthful as Switzerland itself.
Surely Tennessee can and will furnish
a refuge for her own children, and the
charity of the nation had better be
spent in transporting well people to
places of safety than in burying them
dead. Is not this the best, the most
practicable and immediate means of re-
lief, as we'll as in the end the cheapestp
If 30, let no time be lost in organizing
it.

GENERAL DI CEsNoLA's wonderful
collection of the antiquities of Cyprus,
which attracted SO much attention at
the Philadelphia Exhibition in 1876,
have at last found a resting-p place in the
new building of the Metropolitan muse

York, where they are being arranged

1t was expected that the collection

may not be ready by that time. The
antiquities Of Cyprus will be arranged

the galleries of the large main hall of

balls opening off it. The body of the
main hall will be hereafter devoted to

SiOners.

Mayor CooPFR's efforts to promote what
he calls municipal reform, have not, thus
far, been particularly felicitous. He must
think so himself when he reads the report
of the last meeting OF the Board of Police.
His chief reason for making any change
whatever in that Board was the avowod ne
ccsslty Of some Improvement in cleaning
the streets. As soon as Mr.. CHARLES +.
MACLEAN was appointed Police Commits
sioner, the other members of the Board
made him Chairman of the Committee on
Street Cleaning in order that the Mayors
views might be carried ont by his chosen
agent. This arrangement answered very
well as long rs Mr.. ERHARDT remained II
Commissioner, He voted with Gen. SMITH
in favor of giving Mr.. MACLEAN the powers
he asked for.
But with the advent Of Mr. STEPHEN b.
FRENCH into tho Board came an element Of
opposition. 1t did not develop itself at
once, Indeed, there is no reason to suppose
that Mayor COOPER suspected It's existence.
Mr. FIENCH sat through several meetings
of the Board in comparative quietncss On
Thursday, however, Mr., MAGELLAN intro
duccd n resolution to dispense with the fur
appcrtaincd to the Department of Street
Cleaning, and the Commissioner had be-
come satisfied that the public interest de-
mandcd their retirement. He said so. His
resolution was supported by his own vote
and that Of Gen. SMITH, who has long main
tanned that the Chairman of the Committee
on Street Cleaning should control his de-
partment in matters OF detail. 1t was de-

Mr.. CHARLES FOSTER the Republican can
didato for Governor of Ohio, has been max
ing n brief visit to this city.
1t is a little curious that the first thing
after being nominated for Governor Of Ohio
Mr. FOSTER should bctake himself to this
city New York, TO be sure, Is the centre OF
finance. MIR. FOSTER is n banker. He is tho
candidate Of Mr.. SHERMAN, the Secretary Of
She Treasury. The mon who have made
money" millions out OF tho friendship
Of Mr.. SHERMAN reside hero. We infer that
Mr.. FOSTER came on to close up his banking
business and to caution these friends Of Mr..
BHERMAN that they ought not TO contribute
any funds to aid him before entering ON the
nctivc campaign in his own State.
Some of our contemporaries interviewed
Mr. FOSTER while he was here. 1t is evident
from the tone OF his conversation that he
depends for his success upon rctindling the
spirit OF the war, and reviving all its bitter
ness.
1t will be the fault OF the Democrats II the
Republicans are permitted TO do this cs-
pecially in the Presidential election.
With JOHN NJ. PALMER, n Union soldier,
or DAVID DAVIS LISCoIN's bosom friend
and executor, ON the Democratic ticket,
either in the first or second place, this would
seem to be impossible.
