Fraud Hayes.

1t is being very evident that the Re
publican party desires to unload any
responsibility il has for Hayes, past,
present and future. And 10 some ex.
tent IL will succeed. Great crimes, such
as the theft OF the Presidency in 1876
and the attempted theft of il from
Jefferson at the iIstigation Of the Fed.
eTalists in lsC0. seem to seek personal
representative. with which their enorm.
ity becomes identified in history. Jus.
lice reveDges itself on one man. This
will be Hayes lot. The political lead.
ers and party that pushed him into the
stolen Presidency, at first against his
own weak protests, now seem TO think
their guilt will be wiped away by the
more ignomy they heap on Hayes. But
Chambers confession shows that Haye1
vas not the inspiring force OF the great
crime. Ii came from Chandler himself.
Grant, Cameron, Sherman, Garfield and
scores Of other leaders. backed up and
sustained by the Republican press and
organization. Here were the really
guilty parties, the originators, promo.
ters and defenders OF the crime. IL
appears rather travesty on justice that
the responsibility of their guilt should
fail on a weakliog like Hayes but such
seems to be the drift OF public senti.
ment. II is all wrong. of course, but
the American people have queer way
Of compounding for their political sins.
For instance, jeff. Davis TO day repre-.
sents in his own person the crime Of
rebellion and the horrors of four years
Of civil war. The part Of Others in the
great drama seems 70 be forgotten.
Jeh will stick as finger post in the
annals OF time. SO will Hayes.

The Dreaded Disease.

JERsEY CRY. N. j., January 20.-A
sad case of poverty and sickness was
brought 10 light this morning in the
upper part OF Second street. At No.
1863 of that street is frame tenement
house sheltering four families. In the
basement Is family named Williams.
The father, who was a shoemaker, died
last week OF smallpox, leaving a wife
and five children. The neighbors, will.
ing enough TO assistthe widow. were
afraid OF the disease, and when Deputy
Sullivan came TO fumigate the house
they insisted that the bed, the only one
in the rooms. should be burned. This
morning the deputy health inspector
visited the place and found the mother
lying on heap OF rags and carpets and
covered with the pos,ules Of smallpox.
On her right was the dead body of her
little girl and on her left that of her
little boy. In a corner of the room was
sitting little fellow, on whose face was
the shadow Of death, while headlong,
close To the cold stove, were the two re-.
manning children. Mr.. Pearson, the
deputy, ut once lighted fire and sent
for food for the unfortunate family, at
the same time telegraphiDg for the am
bulance to remove them 10 the hospital.
The two dead children were buried TO
day at heexpeDse OF the county. There
were sixty one persons vaccinated at the
sub-staiion at Greenville yesterday.

NEW PUBLICATIONS.

THE opening article in the North American
ReUieW for June is one from Senator w. B.
Allison on 'The Currency of the Future" in
which he indicates the measures that will
have to be taken by Congress for insuring a
stable currency after the national debt has
been extinguished. "a Memorandum at a
Venture" by Walt Whitman. is an explana-
ton of his purpose and point of view in
trenching upon topics not usually regarded
as amenable to literary treatment. "Andover
and Greed Subscription" by the Rev. DIR.
Leonard Woolsey Bacon, is a philosophical
review of the present state ofdogmatic belief
in the churches. The Hon. George F. Sew
ard, late minister TO China, in an article en-
titled monaghan Immigration" makes an
argument against the proposed anti-Chinese
legislation. DIR. John w. Bowling, dean OF
the New York Homeopathic Medical Col
lege, comes to the defense of the Hahneman-
mic school of medicine, against recent at
tack upon it's principles and methods. o. B.
rockingham has a sympathetic article on
Swedenborg. Not the least important paper
is one entitled 'Has Land Value?" by
Isaac L. Rice, it being a criticism of one of
the fundamental postulates of Henry Georges
political economy. Finally, Charles F. Ly-
decker essays to prove that a National
Militia" is a constitutional impossibility.

PERSONALS.

Mr.. ED NOOK, the popular young Mem

his present objective point.
THE following visitors were registered at
the Cotton Exchange yesterday: Colonel ].
L. Epperson, Bill Station; NJ. Pointer, Como,
Miss; Max B. Britton, Florence, Ala.
COLONEL G. F. AKERs, the well-kpewn and
popular fish commissioner of Tennessee, has
resigned his position, having removed to
Kentucky, where other business will occupy
his attention.
Mr.. JOSEPH MCCAIN, of Louisville, KY,
who has sojourned with us during the winter,

left last evening for home, carrying with
him the best wishes of host of friends in

the manner born" fascinating, whole
souled companion and staunch friend.
CAPTAIN JOHN D. WALDRAN and Lieu
tenant Kellar Anderson, of the Porter
Guards, had their designations rejected,
which were rendered to the company last
night. This should be sufficient evidence to
them that their services and companionship
are satisfactory to the company. The rumor
that Major Robert Wildberger would be
elected to command the Porters was only
rumor, and doubtless received it's origin from
the sending in of Captain Waldran's and
Lieutenant Anderson's designations, together
with the well-known military reputation of
Major Wildberger.

Photographs of Bill Rivers and Sandy

the photographer, yesterday. The photo
graphs represent two as fine looking $50
pound negroes were ever "elev ated and

Catholic church and wear the rosary and
cruciix around their necks. They were con-
veyed to the photographers handcuffed to
each other, and he sheriff would not permit
the cuff to be removed. They were, conse-
quently, photographed separately, yet bound
together. Rivers, it will be remembered,
was a driver for Bryson & Camp, and the
party who killed his mistress in front of
house of ill-fame on Gayoso street, between
Main and Second. He is reported as ex-
tremely pleF SAINT in conversation and has the
sympathy of the sheriff and his acquaintance.
Sandy Matthew VS. has rather intelligent look,
but not so pleasant as his companion. The
evidence in his case showed that he invited
his victim to dine with him, and while his
guest was eating Matthews stepped
behind him and Drained him with
an az, afterward he cat his victim
into sections for the greater conven-
fence of barreling him up. The sheriff
has already given out over 600 invitations
to the executions.
The two men were waited upon yesterday
morning by Detective McCune and Officers
Butler and Mullowney and escorted to the

people followed them. The negroes were
