Few cases of homicide in the south
west within the last five wears have
attained the uncnyiabIc notorictv t.
which the Mansfield affair has reached
from one end of the country to the
other. Some northern aud western
papers, especially, have been filled
with the details Of what they are
pleased to charactc!zU al a representa-
tive ease in southern society. While
lis representative character can not be
admitted, nor the justice of the fngs
of those journals, which, blind to such
occurrences IN their own section as
the Dukcs-NUtt tragedy, step aside to
charge the Louisiana horror to defects
in southern society, it is of no use to
deny that the Mansfield case assumes
a blacker aspect as the testimony pro-
ceeds. According to the statement
OF Mrs. Borden, Mss Butler was affi-
anccd, not to the Rev. Il. F. jenkins,
but to another party the young lady
herself solcmnly asserts that she made
no confession to Jenkins of ruin by
Professor Borden, or anything like it:
she has not only defended her own
honor, but mcasurabIy cXcuIpatcd the
memory Of Professor Borden. There
fore, Ben and Ned jenkins, and more
especially Ned, are, in the Judgment
of the public, left without the shadow
of an excuse for the accomplishment

ment in every respect. Her citizens
are being awakened to i realization III
the bright future iThich is now open
ing for them, and they are uniting,
their efforts in common fight against
the causes which have heretofore re
tareled her natural progress.
We are now in q state Of transition
from darkness to light. During the
past few years our advancement has
astonished the idle drcamers Of Jr
caying generation. The dawn Of hope
is everywhere visible. The mutter-
lngs of chronic croakers grow fecbler
as the #ork Of development goes
bravely on, and the harsh and lib
cral sounds of disturbed ancicnts,
gradually become fainter, like the dis
tant rumblings of passing thunder
The entire state is filed with mcn
OF integrity, education, industry, en-
crgy and enterprise. Their influence
is most potent and is eyerywhefe a6-
knowledged by those disposed to see
things as they are.
Nearly, if not quite, every parish
in the state is out Of debt; money is
in the treasury of some of the more
advanced parishes, aud interest is
evinccd, actively, in all matters of pub-
lie interest.
This happy condition Of affairs Was
not produced by any political party,
nor by politicians. The people have
laid aside the hoary old cloak of past
prejudice, brushed the cobwcbs Of in
activity from their brains and gone to
work. Work is what made Amorica
1 great country and developed he's
vast resources, aud work is what will
preserve the country as the home and
'efuge of free men. Because the pco-
Die Of Louisiana have gone to work

To SHOW the feeling against Judge
Billings, in New Orleans, the follow
ing is taken from the States. The
people Of that city have good reason
to be bitter against this judge, and
doubtless they applaud the remarks Of
the States:
There is such a thing N this coun-
try as inlPeaching a judge for eorrup-
tion in Office and violation Of his con
stitutional oath. The Democratic
house Of representatives will have an
excellent opportunity to exercise this
right BY Prcferring charges against
Judge i, q. Billings, Of the II. S.
court. Such an Indictment could be
found against him as even a BcpubH-
can senate would not fail to coayiei
upon evidence 50 overwhelming as to
leave no doubt Of the guilt Of the
accused. Congress will meet III DE-
oember next, and from this time forth
let our people demand 81 our repre-
scntatiYes and senators that tlo i'm

There arrived in Mshanoy City Friday

Smith, apparently, was a deaf mute. He
Immediately instituted inquiries as to who
was the Noble Grand Of the Odd Fellows

DR.. G. NJ. Brendle. Upon calling at q
Office Of the doctor he was informed thai
Mr.. George Parker was the person of the
Lodge holding the Office of Noble Crane
and he wended his wav 10 the residence
that gentleman. Mr.. Parker made inquir

course,) which satisfied him that the man
had al one Time been an Odd Fellow but a,
prese At not invested properly q entitle him

pathy naturally awakened by the condition
of the mute, who appeared in deep distress
Mr.. Parker, however, told him that he
would take him around to the members OF
the order and make a personal appeal IN
his behalf Tue alleged mute stated that
he was member of Somerset Lodge, Nc.

Contesting a Fathers Will.

An East"n despatch of the 9th inst, saws
We are promised long and interesting
controversy in the courts over the will oi
the late Andrew Herster, wealthy citiz. n
Of Nnrlhampton county. who died about one
year ago, leaving an estate valued at $3.50.
600 Four SIMS and two daughters surviv
ed hun, but nne of SIMS has since died.
There is a very bitter feeling among the
heirs craving out nf the fact that fully two
birds OF the entire estate was lch hv the
nld man Ia a son with whom he had live
for some years hefnre his death. while others
Of the children get mere pitiance. The
allegation is that Andrew j. Hers'er and
his wife, while the old nan was living with
them took advantage of the impairment Of
his mental faculties (which, it is claimed
were weakened by age and dIsease) to exert
undue influence, poisoning his mind aga INST
his other children, and inducing him TO
write codici after codcl to his will, Tedue
ing the bequests to the others to increase the
share oi Andrew j, The suit will be bitter

The Coal Trade.

At last the coal companies have agreed
upon a policy of restriction, which seems to
be compromise between Mr.. Hoyt's views
and these of the other presidents. The mines
will, therefore, shut down for three days
the last three days Of this week, the last
three Of the week following and the hrsl
! lhree OF the week after that, thus bring to-
gether six consecutive working days sus
pension. The reason for making IL in this
way is probably because Christmas falls on
Tuesday and there would be but little done
in any event on the Monday befnre or the
Wednesday following Before this. how
ever, President Hoyt had reduced the cir
eular price nj his c,ial fifteen tn twenty FIVE
cents, making the price thirty cents less
! than year ago, when his rates were as
much MS that below the rates oi the other
companies. This action has aroused not a
little dissatisfaction, but President Hoyt IL
wise enough To know that in this time oi
idle factories and reduced wages coal must
come down like everything else. A fair
pronf of this is found in the fact that the
rsdueitn n has not at all stimulated orders
though stnrks aIe not large. The Western
trade Is artive and stocks are light, al
th"ugh the business of the wear has been
very large -Fhila, PeSs, lith inst.
