The Attack ON BayRrd by TIL
denis Friends.

Washington Special to Cincinnati Gazette. ]
The publication by democrats of a
speech by Senator Bayard in 1861,
made in Delaware, on the question Of
secession, is not injuriug him by dem
ocrats. AS a matter of fact, it is
known here that whatever his senti-
ments might have been in the open
ing days Of the rebellion, he exerted
himself actively and with great effect
to prevent Delaware from going out of
the union. The significant point Of
this attack is that Tilden's friends
and supporters were responsible for
its publication.

ONE of the leading manufacturing
establishments of this city was de-
stroyed this forenoon by fire. The par
.tiOulars appear elsewhere in our local
columns. The loss falls heavily on
the firm Of James, Roosa & Graham,
which is one of the most enterprising
south of the Ohio river, and will be
felteven more keenly blythe large num-
Der Of laborers and mechanics thrown
outofemployment. This establishment
grew up to position of good promi-
nence in the face of serious difficult
ties and reverses. The entire factory
was burned down early in 1878 and
speedily rebuilt in substantial and
costly style, including all the latest
improvements IN machinery. The
loss is not far from $6j,O and insur-
ance only about $4,000 The firm,
however, will no doubt rally with its
accustomed energy and soon be on its
feet and at work again. We hope so at
least, for Memphis cannot afford to
lose the leading wagon factory in the
south.

Special to the COurier-Jou
WASHINGTON, February 27.-Presi-
dent Hayes to-day nominated P. B. S.
Pinchback to be naval officer at New
Orleans in place of James Lewis.
Pinchback and Lewis are both colored
men. The latter is very insoIent
republican, while Pinchback is more
moderate in his political notions
Pinchback came to Washington several
weeks ago to secure the naval Office.
Charges had been preferred against
Lewis. Mr.. Hayesiniormed Pinchback
that these charges were not sustained,
and that he therefore should not re-
move Lewis. PiDchback returned to
New Orleans in high dudgeon, and
Immediately began to organize move
ment to secure a grant delegation to
the Chicago convention from Louisi-
ana. This maneuver alarmed John
Sherman, who has been manipulating
the New Orleans customhouse in the
interest of his presidential aspirations.
Sherman called upon Mr.. Hayes and
insisted upon the removal of Lewis
and the appointment of Pinchback
Civil service rules were again broken
and the desired appointment was
made.

AGRICULTURAL NOTES..

February has this time been true
to it's reputation, having been really
a dry month. In the central and
west parts of the island there have
been only II or II lines of rain,
and at La Vall6e only s lines.
Nothing could be better for the
planters, who have been taking
advantage of the favourable weather
by pressing forward with their reap
ing and manufacturing operations.
Those who believe in that particu-
lar example of the division of labour
which the Central Factory seeks to
bring about, must have felt an I'M
usual satisfaction on reading the items
of information which we were able
to give in our last in regard to the
successful start of that institution.
We are aware that some OF u
friends do not believe in the useful
ness of factories to the planters, even
if they + eve SO successful: but
surely they must have been shaken
in their opinion after reading the
notice of the report Of the Martinique
factory of St. Simon, which we lately
reprinted from a st. Lucia paper.
An institution which pays its owners
20 per cent, its manager a premium
of 10 per cent, and the cultivators
connected with it premiums of q to
Al per cent. must certainly be a benefit
