Rural md Municipal foundation.

A census bulletin gives the total popula-
ton OF the 100 largest cities in the United
States haviNg over 10000 inhabitants at
900S 900, which is nearly one-ffth of the
whole population of the country. The TO-
tai increase OF population in the country
in the last decade was 100000, and
2,39S, 900 of this was in the 100
cities. The figures are pointed at as an
indication OF an excessive crowding of
people into cities from the rural dis
trlcts. But it is doubtful if there is any
more such crowding going on in This coun-
try than elsewhere. No doubt there are
thousands of persons in every large Amer
lean city who contribute nothing to the
aggregate of usual human effort, who do
nothing in the way of earning an honest
living, and are mere drones in the social
hive. OF the 100000 persons constituting
the population of these 100 cities, LOCO
600 perhaps could be spared, and the
cities be better OIL without them,
But it is not clear that the rural districts
would be better OF with them, as the ma
jority of them would be as averse to earn
ing fair living there as they are in the
cities Both the rural regions and the cities

Some three months ago young man of
good appearance and genteel dress was ar.
rested by the city officials and thrown into
the county Jail ON charge made by one
Carroll, who charged him with having
robbed him of so in currency. In the
meantime Carroll, who was recognized as 4
drunken, dissolute character, fled the city
and all efforts to reach him by attachment,
sent out for him have proved
futile Having no witnesses to pros
ecute the prisoner, who still swears
his innocence, and who by hi.
manner conyinces those who hear
him that he tells the TRUTH the county at
torncy yesterday dismissed the case. The
young man halls from Maryland, and his
people there, who are poor but of high
standing, have written letters to prominent
citizens Of this city anxously inQuiring into
the matter THIS thing of arresting man
on the affidavit OF an unknown party, with.
out holding him to appear, is hardship on
the accused that should not be tolerated.

VIZ notice in the New York Herald of
late issue suggestions and hints on tonic
of considerable significance to the United
States, and which ought TO elicit far more
than mere passing or cursory notice and
pcrusal. A possibility for great wealth and n
tremendous trade is opened up by the
growth of the islands in the southern Pacific
seas, and no nation $50 layorably situated
for gathering in the profits as Is the United
States. Whether our people will suffer This
growing trade to be diverted into European
channels, or labor to capture 1t, we canno,
say, but there will be terrible lack of yam.

DURING the comparatively short term of
Mr.. JAMES as the head of the post. Office
department he won many golden opinions
from the press, but since his retirement
matters are coming TO light which are not
calculated to add much to his reputation
for honesty and true reform. Among other
things, perhaps the most damaging charge
yet made is the one to the effect that ON
December the 18th he wrote n letter to Mn.
VANDERBILT proposing to make an addi-
tional allowance to him of from $50, 900 Ia
$1,000 per annum, without any material
increase of service in transporting the mails
by Mn, VANDERBILT. Soon after this letter
was written, Mn, JAMES was mad,

AFTER the longand numerous talks about

important meeting at the navy department

Southern Outrages.

WO desire to say just now that IN
the name ana IN behalf oil the honest
Republican masses and the people of
our native State generally, we object
and protest against the COURAGE
mills" that are sent here and into
other Southern States TO work up
cases of "bulldozing" and "intlmida.
tion"-both terms implying cow
ardice whom claimed to have beon
perpetrated upon the majority OF
any looality-on evey election oeos.
sion, As Southern man awho
never went back on the flag of his
country" we are weary with this
eowardly and infamous means or
plea to carry National Republican
success.
Time was when National interior.
enec or protootion-propor enforce.
ment of the Federal law-might
have come IN we'll in this eonnec-
ton, and afforded proper relief, but
tho Government on almost all such
occasions weakened and pandered to
the enemy, until now it is too late
tor all such interior eneo, even If
needed which 1t really is Motif tor
no othor reason than simply because
ii is impracticable. Hence We at
this time denounce all outside effort
to breed and work up sensation OF
this sort, as against Arkansas,
whose people to-day, regardless OF
party, are IN the main as law abiding
and iair.mrnded and generous and
tolerant of differences OF opinion AS
any people IN the world.
We repeat, We want no more such
duplicity and strife breeding policy
to carry political triumphs and sue
eesses which never bring any relief
or benefit to the honest and faithful
masses OF the Republicans Of tho
South. If wrong upon the ballot
box of the State has been or shall be
perpetrated, honest men at homo
will appeal to honest mon at home,
regardless of party, tor redress
knowing that if it does not como in
that way it will not como ut all.
So hands off this matter, all you out
