CEEATlT To BE DEPRKcAUED.

Presidential junksting, .inaugurated
under Grants frst administration, is
dropping into = custom that threatens
to become part and parcel Of the claw
OF the realm" The trip of Hayes and
his cabinet to this coast in the latter
part of 1880, when their services were
much needed at the national Capitol,
Is yet fresh in the minds of everybody.
Toe little political speeches dished up
along their route to admiring audien-
ces, were partaken of right heartily,
because they were something new to
the people. Even those who deprecated
the custom aud who could not relish
the political menu, could not resist the
temptation to turn out en- masse to see
a Ers President-the great American
Jumbo. Gradually the habit has been
insinusting itself into every department
OF the government, until the present
time, when the heads of al the Depart
ments al Washington ars away spend

sorts. In the meantime, subordinatss

The attendance Of the Senators and
Representatives toward the close of the
last session of Congress, is a notable
instance Of the prevailing tendency to
bsentesisn at the present day. In

The next Legislature eonveaea on
next Monday, the 1lth inst, Il 10
sincerely 70 be hoped that salutary and
needed legislation win not be lost sight
Of on account of the fact that the duty
of elscting United States Senator
happens TO dsvolve upon the ensuing
legislature, From present indications,
however, such state OF afiairs seems
to be highly probable. The much valu-
able time that has elapsed since the
general election, has been consumed in
discussing the chances of the ssvsrsl
senatorial aspirants, instead of in the
preparation of hills looking to tho bet
tering of the faulty legislation now on
the statute books. The press of the
State, with few exceptions has neglected
to discuss measures most needed at the
present time, and has confined itself
chiefly tor abusing and enlcgiEing 10
turn, one or the other of the gentleman
whose names are mentioned in connec-
nection with the senate. This is not IS
it should be. Whilst il Is all-import-
ant to the interests of our yet young
State that We have man to represent
US in the national legislature of known
probity and integrity, it il equally, II
not mere, important, that matters near
er home eneross our attention.
The road laws OF the State are sadly
ia need Of improvement, A law taxing
mortgages on real estate in the county
where such real estate Is situated
and the mortgage recorded, is ons much
needed, notwithstanding the position
taken by few leading journals in the
State, against il. Sach . Law is in
iorce in California aud - result much
property is taxed that would otherwise
escape taxation. The fees Of Clerks
and Sheriffs should be reduced by leg
islatiOn, and a good registration Law. ID
much desired by the people Of the State.
A law regulating Interchange Of
traffic by common carriers vas defeated
in the last legislature, but win be
again brought before that body and
should not be neglected longer. The
argument that there are no competing
lines of railway in the State, Is Of nc
fOrcs-it is the duty of the Legislature
to encourage competition By the enact
ment Of wholesome laws.
There are many other measures oi
Importance that might be mentioned,
but it i not our purpose At this time &c
enumerate them. The members
from the several counties kLow whal
legislation is most needed, and we only
intend to remind them, in as few words
as possible, that there are other thing
as important as the election Of Sena.

A CROUxDLEss ALARM.

The rebel :risadiefs in Congress have
always been source Of great annoy
ance TO the editor of the Poiaris. And
now his "undensminational and indie
pendent" spirit Is greatly perturbed
over the reunions of ex- csnfsderates re-
Gently held at SedAIis, Missouri, and
at Sherman, Texas. He is OF The opin-
| ion thai these -eonfsderates cannot
consistently lay claim to being legal
citizens and at the same time, hold an
nual reunions to talk over the Incl
dents Of many q hard fought battlefield
"We confess" says the editor Of the
Pol.,r;s, ssif we were an e%-cOnfedera.e,
In order to be consistent, We should be
compelled 10 do one Of two things. If
we rejoiced in confederate herOi4m and
pluck We would stand oy the 'lpst causs;
for when you condemn The cause for
which man struggles there is not
much left in the struggle over which 10
hurrah. On the other hand, If we had
truly repentsd Of the wrong ani had
given up the cause, we should be
ashamed to peddle over the country
any part of the dead carcass" The
position be has taken il as antenable
as the sentiment he gives voice to il ILL
timed. To say that hereism only ex-
lists in proportion As q canse is just, is a
new theory, and that is substantially
the position taken by the editor of the
Polaris above. And yet, as if by way
of apology in the cry next breath he
says: I've are perfectly willing TO
give them all credit for heroism, but
prefer not to see them bid for it in
these public self. Dauastions" How ex-
tremely consistent According to the
limping logic Of the erndise ex-preachsr,
he dare not give the x-confederates
credit for heroism, lest he be charged
with standing by the 'lost eause," and
be condemned out Of bis own mouth.
It isa source Of qualification to know,
that there are few indeed of the brave
boys who wore the blue as illiberal as
the editor of the Polorts. Wrapt in
the solitude of bis own imagination, he
stands almost alone in the mar
row opinions he giYes utterance to.
Knowing the position be has held in
days gone by as an active worker in
the vineyard of the Great Master, one
would naturally expect to find him in
all things showing himself a pattern Of
good works, in doctrine showing nncor.
ruptness, gravity, sincerity, sonni
speech that cannos be condemned and
telling bis readers, "be re kind one TO
another, tendsrhearted forgiving one
another even as God for Cbrist's sake
hath forgiven you.e Instead however,
~e find him cberishing ap malice. Un-
like the host of conqnering heroes he is

An era of prosperity is dawning up-
On the South. Her people are gradual
ly realizing thst they can no longer de-
pend solely apon the culture OF cotton,
and are turning their attention to other
agricultural pursuits to which the soil
and climate are 30 admirably adapted.
In ante-bsllum days, cotton vas king,
and all else was lost sight Of in the mad
desire to raise it. The people with few
exceptions, paid No attSntion to the
culture Of staples that entered largely
into every day use, and they depended
upon the north and west for articles
that could have been produced cheaper
and with better results at home. But
the times have changed. and shipments
Of wheat are being received in Balti-
more from southern ports. The exam
pie set by Georgia is being rapidly fol-
lowed by other Of the Southern States,
notably Mississippi, and cotton factories
are springing up verywhere. The kind
and quality Of goods turned out there
is said to compare favorably with that
turned out by New England mills. Be
sides, railroad enterprises upon large
scale are being embarked upon, and .
greater number Of miles of railroad have
been built in the last year than ever
before. Inducements are held out to
turu the attention of immigrants to the
agricultural resources of che South, and
with good results, as the gradual in.
crease in the rate of immigration
shows.
The fertile soil of the South cannot
always escape the Eyes Of the immi-
grants, yearly seeking homes in this
country. Once turn the tide of ipmi-
grafton that way, and the future pros
perity Of the country is assured.

telic battle fields have done 30 much
toward bridging over. We are not
alone IN the opinion that these reunions
20 much dreaded by the editor Of the
Polaris, tend much to cement the
friendship Of the brave taen who once
measured swords with each other.
whet er such reunions be Of federal sol
diers or ex.eonfedsrates, there are always
present those who participated on the
other side, and we have yet TO hear Of .
word ever spoken that could offend the
most fastidious. Those of the ex.con-
federates who DO not ckeerlully submit
to the result Of an appeal to arms, are as
few and unmanly as are those on the
other side, who would deny them the
pleasure Of meeting once in while to
talk over the incidents of their hard
fought battles.
