The noted Clark County bond. case was decided in the United States district court at Little Rock last week. The Gazette says of the case: "The evidence showed con c.usively that the so-called bonds issued by procurement of c. W. Tan kersley and Ludlow B. Clark amounted to s100, ,000, and that their issue was the result of fraud and for. gery. The sum involved Tn the suit brought in the United States court was 5000; but the decision is sweeping, and while relieving Clark county from responsibility for debt for which there never was the shai ow of legality, it thoroughly exposes one of the most villainous schemes of plunder in the annals of the re- construction regime in Arkansas" :" The Gazette adds: "Unfortunately for the completion of justice, the per petrators of this vile robbery are be- yond the reach of the law"

It appears that under the ad ministration of MT. Garfield the few democrats ln the south who have held federal offices must take back seat. It reflects very little credit upon the new administration that democratic postmastsrs should be summarily discharged, as is now be- ing done in this and other Southern States, to make room for insxperien ced, and in some cases, incompetent and illiterate men whose political sentiments happen to be in more perfect accord with the party in pow. CT. Every one kno ws that in e ma. jority of cases where a democrat has occupied position of this kind it has been owing to the fact that no competent republican could be found to fill the same, The ejectment of these democrats is not only in total disregard of the will and wishes of the people whom they have served satisfactorily, but will be found very hard to reconcile with the dsclara. tions set forth in Mir. Garfelds inau- gural address; neithor is it calcula- ted above every thing else to break up the solid south, as the republican party would have us believe they so much desire, but which in reality they desire so little.

The supreme court of New York has rendered a decision of general interest to all sections of the coun try, and which is for once a victory of laber over capital. The case is that of a party of striking iron moul- ders who objected to reduction of wages and prevented other moul- ders by use of money from taking thelr places. The supreme court de cides with and for the moulders on the grounds that without resoltlng to violence they had the right under republican laws and institutions to combine, and by their united effort to keep up wages by the means they employed as members of the Iron Moulder's Union. ~

If the present ruinously low price of cotton should prevail next fall there are many farmers who in counting up their profits at the end of the year, will discover that they have made profit of abont ten dol lars bale over the left. The fact is a farmer cannot afford to raise cotton for less than ten cents a pound, even if he makes his bread and meat at home. And yet it IS useless to advise the people not to raise it, or to raise less of it; they are going to make It, and it is right and proper that they should-and a plenty of it. The more the better - for the manufacturer, but NOT for the producer.
