adopted, with scarcely dissenting voice,
appointing delegates to the Congressional

9th of September favorable to Colonel

fore regard him as the choice of the
Chatham county Democracy to succeed

CELESTIAL ETIQUETTE. Chinese Ell
quette in the official world strictly de-
mands retirement from Office for the
space of three years on the death of
either parent. To this there is hardly
ever an exception. The theory is that
the grief of the bereaved son is so incon-
solable as to incapacitate him, for his
public functions; and moreover, the
sacred duties of attending to the funeral
ceremonies and performing the sacrifices
at the grave must necessarily absorb his
time and attention. Whatever his rank
or wealth may be, he must go about clad
in q coarse hempen garment unstitched
at the borders; he must sleep forty-nine
nights on the bare floor, with brick for
his pillow, beside the coffin; he must
remain unshaved and uncombed for one
hundred days, and for the whole period
of three years he can have no music or
joyous event of any kind in his house.
At such time public duty must give
way to private; and the official, no mat
ter what his standing, who should omit
to report the fact of his fathers or
mothers decease and request permission
to retire would certainly incur grave CEN
sure and probably be dismissed from
office altogether

The New York Democrats are GER
tainly working with great zeal to effect
harmony in the party. The State Ex-
ecutive Committee have decided upon
holding the convention at Syracuse on
the 21st of September, and recommend
that the party hold common primaries,
without regard to past factions, and send
but one delegation from each district. If
this advice is followed, it may be that
the old factional fights which have
proven so disastrous to the true interests
of the party will pass into oblivion, and
the Democracy will once more assert its
in the Empire State of the
North.

The Philadelphia Press Republican,
thinks that the adjournment of the House
without passing the stereotyped vote of
thanks to Keifer as Speaker proves that
the House as well as the country has
taken the measure of the man, and that
even the hardened conscience of politi-
clans could not be brought to even a
pretension of respect for either the man.
ner or spirit in which Mr.. Keifer has
conducted himself in position in which
his unfitness was more marked the last
day of the session than it was the first. 1t
says: 1.-THE House has done itself some
credit by abstaining from self-stultifca-
ton in pretending respect that it does
not feel, and when the worst is written
that can be of the errors of the body,
this afterthought of self-respect will go
to palliate sins of omission and commits
sion." This is taking a rose colored
view of the case from Republi-
can standpoint, however. The country
will hardly forgive the Republican ma
jority in this VIGOROUSLY worthless Con-
gress for having placed in a high and
responsible Office a man for whom his
own party could not even pretend to feel
respect

The Philadelphia Record calls atten-
ton to a recent decision of the United
States Court for the Northern District of
Ohio on the question of discrimination
in freights, which is of much importance.
The compliments were coal dealers who
were charged higher rates for freight
than other parties who made larger ship
ments, and for this they brought their
action against the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company for violating the laws relating
to common carriers. The court has
decided that a difference IN freight rates
il justiiable by the difference in
cost of shipment, but that the quantity
which a shipper may send in the course
of a year does not entitle him to a dis
elimination against shipper who sends
less in a year. 1t makes difference to
a railroad whether one ton or thousand
tons be shipped at time, but it is a
matter Of indifference whether the same
quantity of goods be delivered by one or
by several shippers in the course Of a
years business. Railroad companies
under this decision have no right TO
make any discrimination in freight rates
that are not justified by actual Difference
= expense Of carrying.

duce from the port of New York are

provement, their total last week amount

So much Is said OF the sudden rise Of
towns and cities in the United States that
the most. of US forget that similar eases ex-
list in the Old World, some Of them quite as
remarkable as those in the New. Parkerton,
IN England, is Tor soon will be) an instance
in point. 1t appears that the growing i'm
portance of the Antwerp trade, of which
some very striking figures have recently
been published, has made this part OF Har-
wich wholly inadequate for the needs OF the
railway line that terminates there. Accord
ingly the company have erected on an estu-
airy Of the Stour, three-quarters of a mile
from Harwich, splendid new quay where
passengers and freight for the continent
will In future be landed. This quay is 1900
feet long, and has warehouses 400 feet
long by 90 broad, Near the quay will be
erected a station and hotel, bonded stores,
and o1iices for merchants and wOrkmen.
Thus there viii soon be built I'D near Har-
witch an entirely new town. Extension rail-
way lines have been recently constructed
which bring the port into direct communi-
cation with Birmingham, Manchester, Shelf
field, Leeds and other great manufacturing
centres Of England.

The Senate, short time before ad-
journing, agreed to the appointment of
a commission to study the cause of de-
cline in our shipping and to suggest
remedies for the evil. Everybody of
any intelligence knows the cause, and
no commission is needed to tell them.
The destruction of American commerce
is due to our ruinous navigation
and ship building laws, which protect the
New England shipbuilder so effectually
that it is impossible for him to compete
with foreign rivals. The object of this
commission-like that of the Tariff
COMMISSIONERS simply to shirk con
sideration of the subject in the interests
of protection. This fact is emphasized
by the appointment of Wood-pulp Mil
Ter, of New York, as Chairman.

As Mr. Bldind cannot stump the entire

Mr.. Blaine urges that there were a great
many Independents and Democrats who
wished to condemn this Outrage" in
1880, but the importance of the Presi-
Dental struggle compelled them to
postpone their virtuous intentions
If we mistake not, there were
number of Republicans who
condemned the great fraud of 1876, but
none of them, from Conkling down,
have been at all conspicuous, in the inter
val that has elapsed, in expressing their
outraged feelings at the ballot box. An
cient history is interesting in itself, but
Mr.. Blaine might just as well, for prac-
teal purposes, have reminded his fellow
citizens of the fall of Sodom or the ca
tastrophe that befel Mrs. Lot. If the
''plumed knight" had just pointed with
pride" or viewed with alarm" in the
regulation way, his letter would have

Death Of Col. WiIIiam M Wadley.

Death Of Col. William NJ. Wadley.
The news of the sudden death OF
Colonel William NJ. Wadley, at Saratoga
yesterday, will be received with deep
and sincere regret by thousands through
out the length and breadth Of this and
other States where his name was so well
known. Nopsrticulsrs are given Of the
sad event beyond the fact that he fell
dead in the streets Of that city yesterday
afternoon.
Rising rapidly from one of the hum
blest spheres of life. by force of his indi-
vidual exertions and native ability
alone, to the high position of President
of Georgia's great highway, the Central
Railroad, Col Wsdley proved him
self truly possessed of a master
mind, and of administrative and
executive abilities of high order.
Succeeding to the Presidency of !that
road and it's many connections but few
years previous to the panic of 70, he, by
his wonderful sagacity, remarkable fore
sight and wise management, brought it
safely through the perils of
that disastrous period, and not
only raised the value of its stock
from the very low figure it had then
reached to a point far above par, but also
established and managed most success
fully in connection Herewith our splen-
did line of ocean steamships, which
have done 50 much towards
adding to the prosperity and
commercial importance of this port.
Doubtless had his wishes been concurred
in, and his views regarding the proper
management of these two lines been
needed, the stockholders of the road to
which he devoted, with almost paternal
solicitude, the best years of his life.
would not now be called upon to regret
the heavy losses to which they have of
late been subjected.
Col. WadleY was truly great man,
and though the management of the
great corporation over which he presid-
ed will doubtless be successfully con-
tinued by the efficient officials of the
road with whom he had been so long
associated and with whom he was in
thorough accord, his sagacious counsels
and great wisdom must be seriously miss
ed. He had been in bad health for
some months back, but of late it was re-
ported that he was decidedly on the
mend, and it was hoped that he would
yet be spared for many years of useful
ness. In his death this community, the
State of Georgia and the South will
meet with a loss which cannot be over
estimated, and one which 1t will be hard
indeed to fill. No greater eulogy
can be passed upon him than to say
that he was an honest man in every sense
of the word, capable, far seeing, reliable
and true to whatever duty he was called
upon to discharge. ~ $
