Anti.NEouopoly League.

. It is an evidence of the great
and alarming growth Of corpora
tons in this country that citizens
are organizing against them. Small
corporations are being swallowed
up by big ones; competition is al
most dead, and it is coming to be
q fight between the corporations
and the people. Take the railroads,
for example: where ten years ago
there were several competing lines
of railways you find all under one
control and management; where q
few years ago there we're three
great telegraph lines to day the
Western Union owns them all. The
influence that these large corpora
tions WELD in National and State
affairs is immense. If they contin
ue to grow for the next ten years
as they have grown for ten past
they will become stronger than the
government.
The doctrine of the Anti-Monopo
ly League is that the State thai
creates the corporations must con
troll them, and protect the rights o.
her citizens against unjust discrim
nations and oppression; and thai
there should be National and State
Railroad Commissioners to regulate
the railroads.

Senator Logan's bill to make
General Grant Captain General Of
the Army with great big salary
and nothing to do, has not met with
much favor from the Democrats,
Senator Lamar, of Mississippi, be-
ing the only Democratic Senator
who favors it. Logan calls it up
on every possible occasion for a
vote, but other business pushes it
out of the way. The last occasion
was the 22nd of February. BE
thought that day an appropriate
one. The Senate, he said, had just
appropriated $4,000 for a monu-
ment to the father of his country,
and he thought it a good time to do
something for the countrys savior.

Mr.. HAYES.

Thursday, the 4th instant, MIR.
Hayes, the de facto President, re
tires from the Office to which be
was never elected. Into his retire
ment, he carries, it is said, about
$3.50, 900, the savings Of his four
years in the White House, and he
also carries with him the contempt
of a large portion of the American
people Of al parties In the eyes
of one great party he has been g
cEeat and a fraud; in the eyes OF
the other puppet. His retirement
will very likely be permanent; and
he will be permitted to enjoy in
private the remainder of his days
Thanks to Casanave and Anderson,
Linn and Conover, Stanley Ma
Shews and Charley Foster-and to
the Electoral Commission-he is
not only secure against want, but
is blessed with a suMciency of this
worlds goods to enable him to live
in comparative luxury.
AS a President Hayes has been
many-sided. In removing the troops
from the South and thereby knock
ing the prop from under the radi-
cal and corrupt State administra-
tions Ae did an act Of justice to
these States at the same time
relieved his own party of a burden
that had well nigh sunk it beneath
the waves of the country's indigna-
tion. Had he not done that there
would have been no ''solid South"
in 1880; there would have been no
sectional issue; and the Republican
party would have been swept from
the face Of the continent. His &C.
tiou-nay have been disinterested,
unselfsh and bipartisan but when
We remember how readily it was
acquiesced in even by the ''stal-
warts" that the removal of the
Collector of Customs at New York
City created greater Uproar in his
party than his whole Southern
policy; we are forced to believe
that he acted from political mo-
tives, and as the potent represents
tive of the Republican party he
ssunlosded" a burden that that par
ty could no longer carry with safe
ty.
His ''civil service" policy has
been a sham. Under no admins
tration have Office holders taken a
more active and influential part in
politics and no President has made
so many appointments for political
reasons Almost every man, from
the Casana7es and Kenners of the
Louisiana Returning Board, to
John Sherman, of Ohio, who aided
him in securing a seat to which he
was not elected, has received a fat
appointment.
Under his administration the
country has prospered. It has
prospered because it is recovering
from the losses and disa of
civil war, and because beneicent
Providence has sent fruitful sea-
sons and plenteous harvests. The
prosperity Of the country has been
Independent of politics and presi-
Dental administrations.

What the South Wants.
Views ofa Senator who Expects Nothing from
the New President
Senator Vance in "The American"

DSuGlOI fduCS Al 4uG AmSTlCGu.
The South would like to have sim
pie justice from their Northern
brethren. They would like to have
their motives appreciated, aud a ecs-
sation of all sectional abuse. They
would like to have removal or nlodi-
6cation of the iniquities of the tariff
and revenue taxes. which Cypress
their industry they would like to be
protected against protection !; aud,
above all, they want to be let alone !;
to work out that recuperation Of their
fortunes which is now happily begun.
aud which their vast resources Of soil,
mineral and climate place so easily
within their reach, and which only
sectional agitation and bad govern
uent can hinder.
From the incoming Administration
we expect only what experience has
taught US to look for. The thing
that has been is the thing that shall
be. There will be many expressions
Of Cancellation, a little putting forth
of the hand in the way of Offices ard
portions in the name of ur-section-
alism, but really for the purpose Of
Strengthening the party in the South
There will be much depreciation of the
sectional idea !; but gradually the liaes
will be drawn, and BY 1884 the bloody
shirt will be again full high ad.
7aaced' as the only sure means of
elecsing another President. This is
u,y caDdil opinion. l would it were
different. The people of North Caro-
lima ardently desire peace aud recon
cillation, but have little hope of it In
the next four wears.

A Smoke Burner.

A new remedy for the smoke nuisance has
been patented by Mrs. Mary E. Walton, O
New York, who will be remembered as the
lady who took the prize of $4,000 offered fol
the most successful invention for deadenine
sound on the elevated railroads. Mrs. Walton
in speaking of it says:
1.-The invention is very simple, too simple tc
be thought of by any one but woman New
ertheless, it is success and can be used on
any description Of a chimney; either on home
mandatory or locomotive. For. locomotive
it is especially useful. It prevents all sparks
from escaping and does away with railroad
fires. 1t consists of a round cap which fits the
top of the chimney, and extends to one side fa1
enough to allow pipe to be drawn down to-
wards the ground and end in water tank In
the top Of the cap, over the pipe which runs on
the ground, hole is cut and a funnel shared
tube passes down into the pipe. That is all
there is to it. The cold air is drawn through
the funnel-shaped tube and forces the smoke
to the tank. The water absorbs part of the
gases, the others are taken by branch pipe
back to the furnace and returned. For a pri-
vate residence the smoke can be carried into g
sewer, and be disposed of in this way"
Speaking Of tests Mrs. Walton says: "The
first one put on my own house in New Y ork
and invited several gentlemen to inspect it,
put an old suit of clothes, a pair of boots, a
ham-bone and a quantity OF grease into the fire
for wanted something that would make a
smell. The gentlemen went to the end of the
pipe, and in a few minutes one of them came
in and accused me of taking the stuff out of the
fire. opened the range door and showed ii
to him, and he said Mrs Walton, if l had
not seen it / meyer would have believed it
There is no smoke and no smell" have had

Sensation in Court.

For several years the case OF Lee joyce
against A. T. Mitchell to recover 81 900 dam.
ages for malicious prosecution, has been pend
ing in the Circuit Court of Patrick county
Lee JOice is a colored man of responsibility
and on charges preferred by Mitchell, was
tried for theft of $25, and acquitted
He claimed that the prosecution was ma
licious one, and instituted proceedings to
recover damages against Mitchell, who is a
white man of considerable means. After many
delays the cause came on for trial last weel,
before Judge Whittle, of the Circuit Court.
The trial had progressed several hours, and
the outlook was favorable to Mitchell. But in
the midst of the most interesting part of the
proceedings, Col John E. Penn, counsel fol
Joyce, said in open Court that the jury had
been tempered with, leaving clearly the infer
ence of an attempt at bribery. A buzz of ex-
element at once pervaded the Court room,
which was greatly augmented by Judge A. M
Lybrook, one of the defendants counsel, de-
manding an immediate investigation. The jury
was at once Intercepted seriatim. The second
juror examined was Mr.. NOEL, late candi-
date for the County Court Clerkship, who re-
spending to the questions of the Court, said
that he had received a letter signed by the de-
PENDANT in which it was stated that Mitchell
had supported NOEL in the canvass and at the
polls. and on the contrary, Joyce had opposed
him; he therefore, desired to be remembered
by Noel when the jury retired to their room
The plaintiffs counsel at once withdrew from
the case, which was forthwith submitted with.
out argument, the testimony having been taken
before. ~ 49,
The jury found for the plaintiff in the sum o.
$500. The amount was paid by Mitchell al
once.
This is the only case of the kind in Virgins
courts, in which colored man has recovered
damages against white defendant. Martins
