ca" why not repeal the statute against
carrying concealed weapons, and, in
the interest of public revenue, let a
man pay a license for becoming
walking arsenal? Gamblers would
be glad to pay heavy tax for legal
protection in plying their wicked
trade. Why not take q "practical
view" and give them license? Why
not gather large revenue into the trea-
sury by legalizing brothels in our
towns and cities? Seeing prohibition
does not prohibit in these things, there
are the same reasons for the same
practical view" in the passage of the
pint law"
But there is another objection to
this pint law" 1t makes an unjust
discrimination against other men in
the same line of business. Saloon
keepers are compelled TO pay license
tax of $500, in addition to the expense
of publishing their petitions in coun-
ty newspaper. But any man can open
a den and sell by the pint by simply
paying 800. The injustice of such leg
islation is unquestionable, though the
view may be practical"
Other points in the article might be
considered, but space forbids; besides
they have already been met by we'll
known correspondents. Methodism
cannot afford for any of her trusted
sons to give an uncertain sound in this
great struggle. We hope, therefore,
that orr friend and brother NAV mod
ify his views, fall into line, and WELD
his bright Damascus blade on the side
of prohibition.

Five Old Muskets.

The line of the New Orleans
Pacific railroad runs through the
Mansfield battle ground. A few
days ago while body of hands
were at work clearing the right of
way, about four miles from Mansfield,
they found five muskets, with bayo-
nets fixed stacked in the usual army
stvle. These guns, says the DeSOtO
Democrat (from which paper we OBJ
tain these facts) doubtless have been
where they were found. and just as
they were left, ever since the battle of
Mansfield, April s, 1864, and were in
very good condition, except that they
were rusty from long exposure. The
Democrat states furthcr-what is a
most remarkable coincidence-that one
of the party finding the muskets was
a Federal soldier and in the Mansfield
fight, and that he recognized one of
the guns as being his by private
mark he had placed on it. He says he
was not in the main fight, but was
with a party of scouts on the left, and
had halted temporarily, when a squad
of Confederate cavalry suddenly DASH
ed upon them when they were COM
PEELED to beat a hasty retreat, some of
hem leaving their arms.
Seventeen years have elapsed since
the famous battle of Mansfield, during
all of which time these implements of
death have stood harmless and silent
sentries in the forest, locked in peace
full embrace above the slumbering
slain, while the actors surviving the
great struggle have gone their several
ways, many following on that long
journey upon which so many started,
that eventful day these old mus
kets were stacked. History will hard
ly, out of all its varied stores, furnish
a parallel, and fiction itself will own
its Indebtedness to truth in this, as in
thousands of other real occurrences
not wholly dissimilar, but equally in
credible when not sustained by proof

WindOW.GIaSS,

A Pittsburg dispatch Gays: The
window-glass manufacturers have
unanimously decided to close down
their works on the LIST of June for the
summer. There was some opposition
to the movement, but all came into
line finally. Window-glass houses
usually close down for the summer
about July LIST, but on account of an
over production and high wages this
step is taken one month earlier this
summer. The warehouses are well
stocked, but it is expected that this
movement viii cause an increase in
prices. The shut down is understood
to be for three months, but the manu-
facturers are opposed to paying the
present rate of wages to blowers next
year, and it is probable that reduc-
ton in wages viii be made during
the vacation, which may cause a still
further suspension. The manufacture
ers claim that they are now paying
twenty per cent. more wages than
they ever paid. The blowers will re-
sist any reduction in wages.

WINDOWS Operations.

The refunding operations under the
plan originated and put in force by
Secretary Window are now drawing
to a successful close, the only work re-
naming being to wind up the recent
transactions and pay off the bonds
which were not continued in exist
ence at 80 per cent. interest. 1t is
estimated in the treasury that the
amount of bonds continued at 81 per
cent. is about $550,000,000. The bonds
not continued will now be paid out of
the surplus revenues. About SIS, 000,-
600 skies that were not continued
must be paid by the 1st of August next,
and will be Cancelled when paid.
After that the coupon tives, which
have not been continued at 81 per
cent, will be paid and Cancelled, and
the next move of the treasury will be
to redeem the registered tives which
exceed the limit of $25kelQp0 put
upon that class of bonds. gxW1ter will
amount to about $70,GO0,000. The
treasury has notified the holders of
fives that no further continuance of
80 per cent. interest can be allowed,
as the limit has been reached.

A PalatiaI Steamship.

There is at present great COMPETE
ton between the various ocean steam
ship lines for Europe as to which shall
furnish the finest, staunchest and best
boa is for the service. Boats are put
on the transatlantic ferry this year
that excel the grandest maritime ideas
of even a few years ago. The Great
Eastern is, of course, the largest boat
afloat; but at the time she was built
they did not know how to build boats.
She is little better than a great freight
barge, and is no more to be compared
to the grand passenger steamships
than Lake Superior ore boat is to
the City of Cleveland, the Peerless, or
the City of Detroit. The biggest pas
senger steamer afioat is the new In
man steamship, the City of Rome.
The length of this great vessel is 600
feet, breadth tifty-two feet three inches,
and depth of hold thirty-seven feet.
She is $500 tons burden. Some idea
of the size indicated by these figures
may be had when it is stated that the
Commodore, the largest propeller
aflOat on the lakes, is but 2,0S2 tons.
The breadth of beam secures great
stability and consequently correspond
ing comfort to passengers. The fig
urehead is a gigantic Roman Caesar
clothed in the imperial purple. I'm
perious Caesar, dead and turned to
wood, will lead the way to many
passage good. The steamer has four
masts and three funn3lS, and the en-
gines are 10000 horse NOwer. The
grand dining saloon is seventy-two
feet long and fifty-two feet wide.
The vessel will carry fatal of 1,500
Storage passengers, besides having
state-roOms for 300 first-class passen-
gers. The City of Rome will be ready
to catch the ebb of the great tide of
travel that is now setting in for Eu-
rope.

A Boy VINO Could BE Trusted
The Rev. Richard Cecil, who lived to
be a greatly useful minister, was born
in London, in 174S. When a boy he
was strong-willed, but brave, straight
forward, and thoroughly to be trusted,
hating all that was mean, shutting, or
deceitful. One day his father, who
had business in the city, took little
Dick with him, and left him at the
door of the East India House, telling
him to wait there till he should finish
his business and return to him. TAX
en- up with other matters, his father
forgot all about him, and left the
house by another door. Richard, in
the evening, was missed by his moth
er. His father, now remembering
where they parted, said: depend
upon it, he is still waiting for me
where / left him." Immediately re-
turning to the spot, there, to be sure,
he found poor Dick faithfully waiting,
as he had been for hours, and as he
had been ordered to do!

Mollie had little ram, fleece black
as rubber shoe, and every where
that Mollie went, he emigrated too.
He went with her to church one day
the folks hilarious grew to see
him walk demurely into Deacon's Al
lens pew. The worthy deacon quick
ly let his angry passion rise, and gave
it an unchristian kick between the
sad brow eyes; this landed rammy in
the isle; the deacon followed fast, and
raised his foot again, but, ali! that
first kick was his last For Mr.. sheep
walked slowly back about a rod, it's
said, and ere the deacon could retreat,
it stood him on his head. The con-
gregation then arose and went for
that ere sheep, but several well direct
ed butts just piled them in a heap.
Then rushed they strightway for the
door with curses long and loud, while
rammy struck the hindmost man and
shot him through the crowd.

Colonel Killebrew gave the figures as
to the number of immigrants who ar
rived for several years previous, and
added that in 1878 an election took
place in the north, not in the south.
and partisan speakers so abused and
villified the south, and uttered SO
many falsehoods that immigration
stopped, and since that time but few
came to Tennessee Congressman
Moore sat down, asked no more ques-
tions. and the audience enthusiastical-
ly applauded Colonel Killebrew's an
swer TO the pregnant question. The
audience remembered Mr.. Moore's
speeches on the bluff during the Pres
idential campaign.
