THE Avalanche seems to be puzzled

mob" used by the LEDGER yesterday.
We mighthave said was first. class,
genteel mob, a high toned mob, gem
tlemanly mob, FIRST families Of Ar
kansaw mob, Sunday school picnic
mob or a chivalric Christian mob; yet
it is doubtful whether our cotempos
rary would have been any better sat
isfed. A "quiet, orderly mob" may
seem illogical and paradoxical, espe-
cially to the gentleman called from
pleasant dreams in his cage at an in
convenient hour Of the night, but the
world moves and at much smoother
pace than when Jack Cade marched
unto London or in the early youth of
our argus-eyed neighbor. The victim
of the ArkansaW mob was not allowed
to pine away in dungeon deep for
twenty years, but given a short route
to the country where nearly all mnr-
derers say they are going to when
about to be officially hanged. The
method by which this was done is moi
COmmendable, but the result is excel

AS violators Of the law the "quiet,
orderly mob which executed ven
geance upon a prisoner in the hands
Of the law, committed a crime more
direful in its consequences upon hu-
man society than the crime of the
wicked wretch who murdered his wife.
There is too much mob spirit abroad
defying the laws. Ii should be dis
couraged by the press instead Of de-
Tended. A "quiet, orderly mob, bent
upon wreaking vengeance upon its
victim, is the most dangerous thing on
the American continent.
AS to the assertion that the men
who took justice into their hands un-
der these peculiar and aggravating
circumstances are worse than the man
who conspired to doubly outrage and
murder his wife, there will naturally
be a difference Of opinion. There is
ample room for it without people
punching each other with their elbows.
There is difference between justice
and vengeance. Mobs, in the ordinary
sense, are to be deprecated and con-
demned. Yet if they never do any
thing worse than swing up such a
wretch as this, who was about to es-
cape merited punishment, aud whose
guilt was established beyond question,
then the pillars Of society and OF pub
lie safety are not likely to be broken
up. There are occasions when an
outraged people are justifable in
netting out justice upon an enemy Of
the human race, and if this is not one
Of them it is so near it that the differ
ence can be overlooked.

COLONEL Mcclure, editor Of the
Philadelphia Weekly Times, has
written a gross and utterly inexcusable
assault upon the women Of the south.
The fact that he came south last win
ter on tour of observation and was
courteously treated everywhere, did
not eradicate his life long prejudices
or prevent him from betrayiDg lack
of good breeding and decency. His
criticisms are egotistic, unjust and
above all cowardly and contemplate.
Taken as a class, the women Of the
south to whom he alludes will compare
favorably with the women Of any Sec
tion, country or age in the world.
They need no defense from the as
ssults Of man who betrays private
hospitality and takes advantage of the
condolences Of the social circles where
he has been a guest. The south, by
reason of changed circumstances,
needs to learn something of the econ
omy and thrift whereby the north has
grown rich, but for manners and chiV-
alric respect for woman will never ap-
ply to such men as Editor Mcclure.

LESS than four hundred subscribers
have been obtained to Jefferson Davis
book in Memphis. This falls short Of
general expectation, but can be ac-
counted for 1) on account of the high
price of the book, (2) the fact or be-
lief that it can be had as cheap or
cheaper at any future time, and (3) a
distaste for any book that brings up
the horrid phantoms of the war. A

The preparation of such feast
naturally requires time, labor and at
tention. Captain Mallory occupied
several weeks in getting it up, and
had thirty assistants. On Monday
last pit 45 feet long, a feet wide and
several inches deep was prepared and
fired. Over the hot Goals sixteen fat
and neatly dressed sheep, lambs, kids
and shoats were laid, each in quarters
with stick running through like
a huge skewer so it could be
turned over easily and at once.
Small buckets of vinegar, seasoned
with herbs and pepper, were close at
hand, to baSte at intervals, by means
Of sponge on a stick the slowly roast
ing meats. Early on the morning of
Tuesday last a dozen or two of the
invited guests appeared on the grounds
and were regaled with stewed pigs
liver, fricaseed chickens toes, hashed
glblets and dozen other cleverly con.
cocted dishes, manufactured from
trimmings of the stock on hand. Be.
sides the foregoing items, a hundred
and fifty pounds of corn pone and
wheat bread was brought on the
ground, sixteen dozen chickens were
used, twenty skillets were busted in
making corn dodgers, twenty gallons Of
fresh buttormilk, and four blocks Of
ice were there, large supply of ice
water, two kegs Of beer, ever so much
Kentucky Bourbon, a supply Of i'm
ported cognac, some claret, several
packs of cards and other items were
necessary to bring the feast into a
state of perfection.
