"A NEW RAlLWAY.

The latest railroad scheme is single
rail track, aud, according to western
paper, railroad men are giving the plan
serious attention. The new road is to
consist If one large, flat iron rail, rest
ing on pillars of iron fourteen feet
high, planted In single file, and four
feet below ia another rail, running
parallel, on both sides of which run
the wheels OF the car, grooved on the
tire 90 as to fit the angles of the rail,
while on the upper one the wheels turn
horizontally, and prevent all motion OF
the car sidewise. The trucks of solid
iron, without rivet or bolt, come down
oven the upper rail in such way that
a broken wheel or rail cannot throw
the cars from the track. The advan-
taRes claimed for such a road are free
dom from snow or other distractions,
clouds of dust, accidents at crossings
flor the road will be above them), and
the minor annoyances which make
travel by rail uncomfortable. The cars
on the proposed road are to run, accord
ing to the enthusiastic inventor, one
hundred miles an hour, making Chi
cago and Detroit three hours and New
York and Detroit seven hours apart.

THE GRANT BILL.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-The Grant
retiring bill will be severely antagon-
lied in the House by the Shermans,
unless pledges are given to their salts
faction that if the bill passes Grant will
retire at once.
Gov. Foster Of Ohio appeared on the
scone today, and, with Gen. Sherman,
was active at the Capitol. The bill
restores Grant to the rank of General
of the Army, and provides for retiring
him. Sherman wants to know II things
are being done in good faith, and
whether he will not, after all, be legis-
lated out and Grant in as the head of
the army. 1t Is no secret that the feel
ing between Gen. Grant and Gen. Sher-
man Is not the kindest, particularly on
Sherman's side, In which John, the
Senator, shares, for a variety of reasons.
Gen. Sherman was to have left for the
Southwest this week on u tour of duty,
but he remains Mt the capital to look
after this bill, and will not depart before
he becomes satisfied there is no cat in
the meal.
Independent of this, there Is dispo-
sition in the House to antag0nize the
bill, and 1t would not be difficult
thing to hang 1t up, perhaps kill 1t out
right. 1t is Fosters business to deter
mine what course to pursue, the Sher-
mans keeping in the background.

Mr.. Blaine at the memorial ceremonies
in respect to the late President. Mr..
Blaine and Mr.. Garfield we're closely
associated in Congress, and upon his
election as President, Mr.. Garfield made
his eulogist, Mr.. Blaine, Secretary Of

it was expected, would be splen-
did liteary effort, and this tho address
is; but it Is not what was as confidently
expected-a development of the distin-
guished eulogist's intentions regarding
his candidacy for the Presidency. There
Is but a slight allusion to the differ
ences between Mr.. Garfield and Mr.
Conkling, not more than called for in
such an address, and Mr.. Blaine pro

THE NEEDS OF THE SOUTH.

Let me submit for your consideration
a remark of one of your ablest State
Senators: It was, that the great want of
this State and the South was an inter-
est-bearing, home or local security, in
which our people could invest their
small surplus. Nothing could be more
true. The Massachusetts, man invests
his surplus in an interest-bearfng bond,
or ties it up in stocks. The MISSISSIPPI
plan invests his surplus in bank, or
ties it up in his stocking. What we
need at the South, what we must have at
the South, is an increase of those enter
prises which invite combination and
cooperation OF enterprise and capital.
Hence the value of corporations as the
means Of successful cooperation. 1
know that much has been said in refer
ence to the dangerous powers of cor
porations, and I concur in the opinion
that it is lawful and sometimes expe-
dient to limit by supervision those pow
ers and privileges. But, submit, on
due, in a large measure, the wonderful
material development of the North, and
that corporations have been the most
stupendous strides of American pro-
gress. What are corporations? They
are but the means, legalized and pro-
tectei by law, of conservative cooper
alton, and without cooperation little is
accomplished in any department of
life. AS l said on another occasion,
cooperation is Gods law. All nature
is cooperation. The dew of the noun
tain's brow, the snowflake upon its
side cooperate to form the rivulet, the
rivulets to form the rivers and seas
which carry the commerce of nations.
And so the poor mans hundreds and
the rich mans thousands combine to
build the railroad, erect the factories,
spin the cotton and cut down the for
est. Corporations are the distinctive
feature OF Northern civilization the
absence Of corporations the "distinctive

THE PLANTER ANDnls MERCHANT.
Est. Landry (LA) August

Last week we made some conn ent0
upon the condition of the planter and
his city merchant or agent. This un-
fortunate relationship was brought
about by state OF things that existed
prior to the war. Twenty-f1ve or thirty
years ago, slavery was in the very
height of its glory. Our lands were
fresh, money plenty, provisions cheap
and our products In good demand.
Communication with the great cotton
market of the South, New Orleans, was
by stage or water. To the planter 1t
was trip of hardships-long, tedious
and attended with considerable risk to
life aud limb. Agents became neces-
sary. Commission merchants sprung
into existence, and eagerly sought the
planter. He not only sold your cotton,
but he also purchased your plantation
supplies, family groceries, furniture,
clothing and cooking utensils. In re-
turn he was we'll paid, and exerted
himself to please. This is all correct as
it should be.
complete and thorough change. There
are no more deposits in bank or mer-
chants hands for tho planter. He has
no longer at his beck and nod the obe-
dient slave. His lands are impover-
ished by the bad and luminous methods
of the last sixteen years, and his build
| ings, fences and bitches are In bad con-
dition from his own improvidence or
the Iaziness of the African.
When the planter visits New Orleans
these days, with the intention of seek
ing aid, he goes, not AS an autocrat OF
old, but as beggar. The ssprincely
merchant" who has grown fat and
saucy upon the hard earnings of the
farmer, is very patronizing and would
consider il much honor conferred, II
he could lend you a few dollars at ruin.
Gus rates of interest, secured as we
have previously stated, by mortgage
on all you possess. This is as 1t should
not be. With railroads radiating from
the great commercial centre to every
point of the compass; with steamers
and barges and fats floating upon
streams that have been made naviga
BILE of late years, adding hundred
fold to former facilities, the planter
should reflect upon the changes, and
the impossibility under present cir
cumstances of ever being able to thrive
under the dictation of New Orleans
money lenders. We ask the impover-
ished planter how and when shall he
be able to pay from twelve and a-hal1
to twenty-five per cent. for money
| Will some one solve this problem?

THE OVERFLOW.

The Mississippi Valley is certainly in
deplorable condition. a flood, greater
in extent than any that has occurred
for at least twenty years, is upon us.
There is no longer any hope for escape,
especially in North Louisiana. Thous-
nnds of industrious farmers will be
without means of support for months
to come, and doubtless great suffering
will ensue. Some three or four weeks
ago we did not deem it necessary to
call upon Congress for relief; but the
crisis has come, and the appropriation
made last week by that body will be
tho only means OF saving many poor
families from absolute want. The
calamity has assumed IL national form
1t is no longer a district in need OF aid,
but almost the entire raising
country of the Union.
In this sad state Of affairs, those OF
our planters who are fortunate enough
to be secure from the disastrous effects
of tho overflow, should plant every
available acre in corn. Let cotton this
year be the surplus and not the main
crop. The experience of last year and
the scarcity of feed-nay, bread, in the
country, should be a salutary lesson,
which, we sincerely trust, will not be
thrown away.-htanklia San, an. inst.

~To those who have never seen an
overflow in an alIuvial country, no
idea can be conveyed of the extent OF
the food in the alluvial parishes OF
North Louisiana. The overflow is not
80 crest from the Ouachita river as
that of 1874, but the water coming from
the overflow of the Mississippi Is
greater. The fall of rain since Tues
day is almost unparalleled in this
locality, and the Indications are that
the rain was general. All the tributa
rles of the Ouachita were full, and we
shall expect to see the great rainfall o.
Tuesday and Wednesday coming down
upon us. The swamps were already
full of water, and the ground thor
oughly soaked. Every drop Of rain
that has fallen for several days
will add that much to the over
flow. A steady rise In the Qua

fering cannot be doubted. Our mer.
chants are strained to the utmost, the
planters are in hourly expectation OF
ruin, and the stock, driven to small

and dying from lack of food. The
ground is too wet to plow, and the

less to effect good.
