ARACING WITH A STORM.

The following narrative of q race
with a storm, in a balloon, Is given by
a representative of the Philadelphia
Times, who, a lady friend, accompanied
Professor Samuel A. King in an ascen- |
sion from that city. The balloon kept |
ON falling until the drag-rope whipped
along through thetops ofthe sreeS, only
about one hundred and fifty feet below.
To the left a clearing was discovered
with farmhouse uponi it. Strong ana
loud calls for aid brought ready re-
sponses. "Head us of! Catch the drag
rope - shouted the captain OF the air
ship, but the drag-rope whipped mer-
rily along over the trees skirting the
clearing and defied capture. Matters
were coming to a. crisis. The shadow OF
the coming storm upon the trees i'll the
distance was black as night. The Pro-
fessor sat with the neck of y bag of bal
last in his hands rs tho balloon sailed
over a swamp covered With.tall cedars.
1t would be impossible to land here.
The water was neck deep. The bal
loon would have thrashed itself to
pieces in short order. Down went the
air vessel as if to rcconnoitre. A cold
current struck her. 1t was the advance
guard ofthestorm. With the swiitness
of an express train the great gas bag tleW
l y
saug out tho Professor, as it became
evident that the balloon would strike
The shock came and the basket rushed
through the tree tops and then bounded
up again. Down she came again and
dashed in among the ccdars as If trying
ITO level them. a little moro sand was
thrown out and the basket cleared the
trees and in moment moro the dan
gerous swa.u1p had boon cleared. 1t
was high time> Tho storm was almost
upon tho balloosl. "Now look out for
yourselves" andE tho Professor threw
over the anchor Us the gas bag hoateti
over dry spot covered with bushes
and small trees. VWe must como down
hero, and I'll explode tho balloon, Il
necessary" Thd anchor caught and
held, and tho bi(Nopn carecned ove'
and went up ssih0t tho trees. The
valve was openeda md tho gas rushed
synt. - ButLant half fast enough. Th'
wind increaseSs and tho balloon tuggct
to get free. Tho Professor seized tho
collapsing cord. In an instant tho bal
loon was rent from top to bottom
Out went tho gas with rush, an
down camo tho balloon. 1t foil Owe

THE ERLANGER SYNDICATE.

The company of capitalists known rs
the Erlangcr syndicate are attracting !
great attention in this section at pre- |
sent, in view of the fact that they have
recently leased the Cincinnati Southern
Railroad, great thoroughfarc which
extends through the breadth of our
State. The syndicate is composed OF n
number European capitalists, with MIR.
Erlanser, an immensely wealthy gentle
man, at their head. They own and
control a complete system of railways
in the South, and by the investment OF
their capital and their energy ana enter
prise they are doing much to build up
tho waste places of the South, and to
make the whole Southern country
blossom as a rose. The history of tho
formation of tho IIrlangcr syndicate is
not without altinge of romance. During
the war Mr.. Slidcll, of Louisiana, was
a Confederate Ambassador to France,
and was accompanied to that country
by his beautiful and attractived daughter,
a young lady of rare graces ana attain
mcnts, who reigned a belle in the gay
Parisian usalons," and was sought IN
marriage by numbers of titled ano
aristocratic gentlemen. Her heart was
won, however, by Mr.. Erlangcr, ant
thcv were married. After the war sh'
, succeeded in enlisting his sympathie
for the upbuilding of the stricken an'
PROSTATE South, and he ORGANIZED
company for the purpose of investing
capital in developing the resources
the Southern States. This synd'cat
u has invested largely in railroads, an
1 we arc glad to learn that they ar
It maxim. money largely and rapidly.
u is thus, by singing the songs of nc
&C Zion in strange land, that a mob
o Southern woman has contributed
r, largely to the wealth, the prospcri'
, and upbuilding of her beloved nati'
II land.

PRESIDENTIAL INABILITY.

Even if the president should even-
tually get we'll there Is no assurance
that he will be able to discharge his
Official duties for several months. 1n-
deed, unless he improves much moro
rapidly than he Is now improving, no
will be in no condition to return to
Washington when Congress assemblies
in December: There are matters now,
no doubt, which demand the Presidents
attention, but they arc not SO impera-
tive, perhaps, as to admit of no delay.
When Congress meets, however, If the
president is not so far recovered as to
Justify him resuming his duties the
vacancy caused by his inability must
be filed. Perhaps the vice-prestdent
would be filling the office of president
now if there were not great uncertainty
relative to tho tenure of tho vice-presi-
dent If he should take charge of tho
presidential office. The constitution Is
far from clear ON this point. Able law
could discharge the duties of president
only so long as the Presidents inability
continued. Other able lawyers how
ever contend that II the vice-president
assume the duties OF president no Is
in fact and in law, the president, and
must continue to be the president
until the end of the presidential term.
Among this latter class of lawyers In
|Seuator Jones, of Florida. As con-
stitutional lawyer Senator Jones has
few equals, and, perhaps, no superiors.
AS close thinker and logical debater
he stands in the front rank of senators.
Ills views therefore arrest attention
and command consideration. 1t Is pro-
bable that this doubt, whether tho
vice-presjdcnt, after having assumed
the office of president, could retire
from tho Office on tho removal OF tho
presidents inability, has prevented tho
cabinet from Inviting tho vice-president
to discharge the duties of chief eXecu-
tive, and, also, prevented tho vice
president from taking charge OF tho
presidential office. There is no desire
anywhere to deprive tho president OF
his office as long as there is II chance
for his recovery, and 1t is therefore
probable that no action that might
, possibly have that effect will bo taken
until such action becomes absolutely
necessary. 1t is urged that congress,
by statute, can give an Interpretation
!: to tho constitution that would remoVt
the doubt as to whether tho presiden
II can resume his of1lco after tho removR
of this inability, but objections nr
II raised to this way out OF the dihculty
The obscurity of the constitution, IL
claimed. Is of such a character that
CT can only be cured by an amendmon
ia statute would not be sufficient romeu!
The presidential inability questio
promises to grow moro troublcson

ORIGIN OF TIE CHINESE pIarAIL'

Tho recent imperial ctlict on tho subs
icct calls our attention to tho origin OF
the pigtail, which is now the distinc-
two mark of Il native of tho FlOWery
land. 1t is ono of tho strange phono-
mena of that country, whore every
thing is so ancient, and Whcrc so fcW
innovations havo bccn tolerated, that
th is practice, which was originally tho
badge of conquest, should have bcon
not merely accepted, but permitted
to intortwinc itself so closely with tho
national life that 1t would now require
rorciblc measures to induce tho people
to forcgo it,
For in tho days before tho Mnnchu
CONQUEST, when tho throne was occu-
pied by the great dynastics of antiquity
| the Chinese allowed their hair to grow
as best 1t pleased them, and thoy wero
even known to some of their ncighbors
as tho .slong-haircd race" But whom
tho great soldier Noorhachu marched
southward from Moukdcn to conquer
China, and establish the Manchu
dynasty, he gave an order to his !ieu-
tenants to compel tho people, as thcy
submitted, to shave their heads In token
of their surrender. Tho Manchus were
I thus enabled to discover at u glance
which of the Chinese were vanquishcd
and which wcro not; while tho
f thorouyhncss of their success was cx-
f pressed in tho most formal and em-
9 phatic manner. ,
c This practice, which was adopted
c partly from tho cxigcnces arising out
0 of the conquest Of tho multituucs OF
u China by a mcrc handful OF Tartar sol-
Q dicrs, was continued, and became "Il
l. integral portion of tho Manchu system
IS of government, and tho result has tend

&c ors of tho present dynasty. The popu,

COTTON.

A correspond cnt writing to New
Orleans papcr, from Il county in MISS
issippi, says that "not half enough OF
cotton will be raised to purchase food
for tho coming ycar'' In how many
localities throughout tho State can the
Same thing be said? Raising cotton TO
buy corn and pork, anu 1nulcS, anu
hay to feed them with, has been TOO
long the rule throughout the cotton
re,,ion Planters throughout the State
will remember that during the war the
suggestion was made and generally
acted upon, to cultivate very little, IL
auy, cotton, but to direct attention 10
tho production of corn and food supplies.
The result, as all will remember, was
tho most abundant supply OF corn,
potatoes, hogs and cattle ana IL inc
enemy had not unfortunately forccu
his way into the Southern States ana
interfercd with the benefits arising
from tho abundant production OF lood,
the people of the South would nave
| madc greater advances towards real
independence than they had ever made
before. On every plantation the SOUND
of the wheel and loom was heard ana
in every place there was an abundance
of tho food necessary for existence.
Now, is it not plain that If tho same
course should be pursued in timc o.
pcacc, that still more favorable results
would follow? There would not only
be an abundance of tho necessaric5 OF
life, but there would be enough o
extra productions to furnish all th'
, luxurics of life. We have often, since
, our experience of the first year OF TN

LOUISIANA LYNCH-LAw.

The Columbia Herald gives part1c-
ulars of case of incendiarism In jack
son parish. The residence of Mr.. Full
Ter was set on fire last April, while
thirteen persons were in the house
coal oil having been poured here and
there to facilitate the work of confiagra-
tion. Two colored persons, a man and
a woman, were subsequently arrested
on suspicion and the evidence against
the man was very strong. He broke
Jail and escaped before indictment
and the jury failed to agree as to the
guilt of the woman, there being eleven
for conviction and one for acquittal.
Subsequently in the latter part of
August the fugitive negro was re-
arrested, taken out of Jail by mob,
and hung to a tree.
The crime was a peculiarly fiendish
one, for all the inhabitants of the house
might have been burnt alive. The
evidence was strong against the lynched
negro; and there is every probability
that had he been tried, he might have
been acquitted through the stupidity or
partizanship of a mixed jury. But 1t
is nevertheless to be deprecated that
such course should have been pursued
until his guilt was settled beyond all
shadow of doubt. Aud there arc
always schcmers ready and eager tC
coin political capital out of such occur
renceS. "a.
But it must be remembered that in
certain parts Of Louisiana tho whites
must rule with rod of iron in order
to preserve law aud order. In Jackson
there is small white majoetty; hlt
there are parishes in which the black
majority is enormous. The two great
crimes to which the blacks are most
prone under the influence of passion
are rape and arson; crimes which
ought in all civilized countries to be
invariably punished with death. Then
there is the cause of the jury farce. A
mixed jury will seldom convict a negro
of serious offense, when that oftense
has been perpetrated against some one
not of their own color. But law must
nevertheless hold its own: and the
ignorant mass of negroes must learn
that the Intelligent portion of the
population in their parish can rule
and will be masters, and will cnforc'
the penalties of the law in spite of TIN
abnormal condition of affairs. There
fore, while it is possible that tn
lynchcrs of the incendiary in jackson
acted overhastily, we can hardly blam
them if they were positive that the
had the right man.
In a few years more, however, the'
will be an end of such scandals an
= such horrors but the black populatio
: will sink to natural level of numeric
inferiority. The parishes will be thic
= ly settled mon from the North ar
. East and West will pour into Louis
- ana, while from tho South Spanish ar
;, French emigration will swell the viii
. population. Until an increase of po
ulation and capital, and q conseque
. increase of prosperity, law will be
we'll established that the public net
not fear that any such crimes as raj
- - and arson will be suffered to go u
- punished by the courts. 1t is the d
trust of legal authority that often lea
T. unauthorized men, as it did in Il
y y above case, to take law into their ov
