What became ofthe Republican party in Alabama in
1878? Is it said that they ran no ticket because defeat
was inevitable? Are parties in the habit of doing
this? DO Democrats give up voting in Vermont, or
Republicans in Missouri? 1t was because the Repub
licans of Alabama had been taught by midnight mur
ders and whippings, by social ostracis and by the
tyranny Of employers that the less they had 10 90

enioyed. 1t remains be how much better they
have Jared in the election just held under the

show nearly double The rate Of increase Of the
northwestern states. 1t says:

1t will Surprise many" to learn this. The
southern states, excepting Texas and Arknn-
Sas, mentioned by the C.J have been staenant
for n quarter of a century. They have offered
no new inducements TO scttlers. Their lands
are to a great extcnt barren or worn OUT lhcir
staples are cotton and tobacco which can only
be raised proftably in largo plantations nnd
require considerable Investments OF capital.
Their cities have not grown. Thoir commerce
has not expanded. Their mileage Of railroads
has increased very little. The statistics of the
government show no unusual contributions Of
internal revenue from any of them, nor any
great demand for public lands. There has
been little foreign immigration into any of
them, but considerable native exodus out Of
some.
In the face of these facts, which indicate no
special growth of population, tho census rc-
turns show an amazing increase in tho popula-
tiOn of the south-an increase unparalleled in
its history. The seven states reforred to have
made the following absolute gains in each

Mays landing, when the engineer slowed up
and started to run on tho siding to allow tho
passage Of the $50 express from Camden All
the cars had passed tho switch except two,
when tho second section came laundering
on behind. The engineer Of the latter
whistled down brakes rs he approached the
switch, but when the brakes were applied
they failed to work, owing TO the wet, and
the rear locomotive crushed into tho last car
of tho first section, tcleseoping II aud causing
| a fearful wreck. As the locomotive forced its
way into the car the cylinder heads wero
forced open and dense cloud of steam poured
! through the car, scaldiug nearly every passon-
ger in IL, In au instant there was scene Of
