understood that, previous to their
aIraignmsnt, the prisoners have
been subjected to exquisite and In
genious tortures, electricity being
the agent employed. This is new
and startling application Of mod
ern scientific discoveries. It is for.
tunate indeed that the humane
spirit begotten of the progress of
knowledge will make such barbsr.
GUS experiments very infrequent in
the future. To torture helpless
human being, around whom the
msshes of the law are already
securely woven, is about equal to
the atrocity involved in q conspir-

glass balls. It Ia six OF one and
half . dozen of the other, with the
difference that the masters of q
great government ought to know
better. II 1t be true that Gen. Loris
Melikof personally superintended
the torturing of Roussakoff and
Jailibof, then the civilized world
will not shed many tears when
Melikoff, in his turn, has been as.
sassinated, as he probably will be.

The Milan exchange. (Milan, Gibson County, Tenn.) 1874-1978, 1881-06-18
Defrauding the Revenues.

A treasury official connected with
the life-saving service,,whose business
lately called him to a certain town in
one Of the cotton States, where local
option had nominally stopped the sale
of intoxicating liquors, was surprised
to see so many men more or less under
the influence of liquor. Following a
hint as to where he could get some
thing to quench his thirst, he went to
a drugstore and purchased two bot
ties of a certain kind of bitters, which
bore the proper certifcation of the In
ternal Revenue Department that it
was a medicinal preparation. These
two bottles were sent to Washington,
and, their contents being subjected to
the tests in use in the Internal Revenue
Bureau, were found to be as unlike
the original specimens, upon which
the label of medicinal" was author
lied to be used, as chalk is unlike
cheese. The bitters submitted by the
proprietors for test by the Revenue
Bureau contained so large proportion
of a certain drug that the decoction
was very unpalatable, and two or
three moderate doses nauSeated even
the whisky-proof stomachs of Gen.
Raum's subordinates. The two bot
ties purchased in the Georgia temper
ance town contained so little of the
drug that the official testers pro-
nounced it "a first-class article of
common whisky, concealing about
five drops of medicine to the barrel. ="
1t was manufactured in Chicago, and
sent to druggists in country towns.

Why the Southern States do not Secure
Immigrants.

Mr.. James Dickinson writes from
Farnworth, England, to the Memphis
Appeal as follows: BY your kind
permission / should like to refer to
few matters contained in your issue of
the llth. In leading article headed
'1mmigration" you ask the question;
"Why cannot the sunny South get
share Of the stream of immigration 2"
And L may answer that the States
which try for it do get a good share.
Texas has made her name household
word in the United Kingdom. All her
advantages have been blaZoned forth
with the utmost persistency. and as
a consequence, Texas has received
very large number of men who are
DESTROYS of conducting farming under
more favorable conditions than exist
in the British isles. Now, sir, note
the contrast: have resided for some
time in Arkansas, and remem bering
with gratitude the uniform kindness
| received in that State, and its induce
ments for peaceful, industrious set
tiers, l wrote letters to the Governor
and the Land Commissioners suggest
ing the advisability of pushing the
State in this country, and requesting
them to send me a pamphlet, such as
| had seen, dealing with the resources
ETC., but no reply was forthcom-
ing. may as well state that | am
shipping agent, and could induce some
persons to cast their lot in such fav-
ored State. Although have been in
Memphis several times, l do not know
much about the State Of Tennessee,
but the authorities of States DESTROYS
of inducing immigration must make
their States known. There is no rea-
son (other than the supineness of the
authorities) why the Southern States
shoulc not have far greater share of
the many thousand industrious labor
srs and skillful artisans who crowd the
shores of the United States month by
month, and / am certain that an effort
put forth by Tennessee, Mississippi or
Arkansas would be well repaid.

The Next House.

A Washington dispatch says: The
talk about an anti-Republican cOmbi-
nation to organize the next House of
Congress is revived here. While ex-
Speaker Randall is very active i'll the
organization of the movements he does
not expect to be the opposition candi-
date for Speaker. That honor is in
tended for Ladd of Maine, who has
been staunch Democrat for years. and
is acceptable to the Greenbackers. All
the Democrats elected to the next
House are willing TO support Ladd
for Speaker, and the combination pro-
poses to give the Greenbackers either
the Clerk or Sergeant-at-ArmS, and
control the important committees.
Ladd and the Greenbackers will I'M
dertake to carry Frye's district, made
vacant by the election of Frye to the
Senate, and the Democrats propose to
TO carry Morton's district in New York
city. Should the Republicans lose
these two districts they would be in
the minority. But then the two Re-
adjuster members from Virginia are
doubtful. The Democrats claim that
if they carry Virginia next fall, both
the Readjusters will vote with them
in the organization of the House. Ac-
tive operations looking to the organi-
cation of the House in December have
been going ON for some time.

South Carolina Diamonds.

Seneca City cor. Charleston Ne,cs
and Courier: There has been much
excitement in our community for the
past few DAYS, caused by the discOv-
cry of diamonds in an old gold mine.
For years gold mining has been car
ried on to greater or less extent in
tins vicinity. Some two or three
years since Col. John Cochran mined
quite extensively, with what success
was not generally known. Some two
weeks since Mr.. Joseph Blanny, hail
ing from England, came to Seneca on
his way to Western North Carolina,
prospecting for mica, and was induced
to 90 down and look around where
Col. Cochran had been mining for
gold. He went to panning on farm
adjoining the Cochran mine, and was
rewarded by washing out several
diamonds. He sent some of them to
Tiffany & Co., of New York, and one
of their experts came out and pro-
nounced them genuine straw-colored
diamonds, equal to the African dia-
monds. Mr.. Blanny has purchased
800 feet square from the owners of
the land for $1,000, and proposes to go
regularly into the business, not as a
stock company, but on his own ac-
count.

Humane Societies.

The work of the Humane society is
one that makes very bitter enemies
among those who experience its pow
er in compelling the m to treat their
dumb animals humanely. 1t is COM
mon opinion, especially with the lower
and more uneducated people, that
ownership gives right TO abuse or
mistreat. Indeed, this idea is found
among the more degraded and brutal
to be held in regard to family relation
ship. Husbands are found who claim
as a right that they may abuse their
wives; parents are found who claim
as a right that they may beat and
maltreat their children. The Humane
society undertakes to teach all that
there is a higher law on this subject,
which must and shall be obeysd.-Ex.
