Not Pleasant Reading.

The barbarous custom prevails in GER
tain States Of letting out convicts to the
highest bidder, to whom, for the term OF
his contract, they are rs veritab,e slaves
as any negro was under the old regime.
Mr.. Geo. w. Cable, the novelist, made
it the theme Of his eloquent denuncia-
tion at q late meeting in New Orleans,
and from Arkansas comes All instance OF
its practical working which jnstifies the
worst that can be said against it. One
Sharp. arrested for owing 81 board
money was fined $40 by the Judge. Not
having the money. he was sent to Jail,
whence he was taken by one OF the..con-
tractors in flesh and blood. In six days
the latter had whipped him to death. A
coroner's jury found verdict Of wilful
murder. The contractor w&s arrested
and Immediately discharged on straw
bail. 1t lis hard to say which is the
filter subject for Indignation the law
which condemns a man to slavery for q
debt of 81, or the inhuman wretch Who
takes advantage Of il to murder his help
less victim.
The sickening outrage is nearly paral-
leled by late occurrence in Georgia
town, where n woman sentenced to
sweep the streets in the chain gang for
some trivial offence, and pleading sick
ness as an excuse, was, by order Of the
magistrate, tied to the tail OF a cart and
80 dragged to the place of punishment

A New York commercial agency has

mess failures over the entire country for
the first half of the present year. They in
dictate marked increase in the number and
extent of liabilities as compared with cor
responding periods of the two
previous years. For the first six months in
1881 the failures were z, S62 In number; the
first six months of 1882, 5,397; the first half Of
1888, 4,637. The liabilities show a greater
increase in 1881 The liabilities for the first
six months were $40, O00 600; in 1882, $50, 600,
OCO; the six months of 1888, SCI, 600 0OO The
increase i'm liabilities the last half of the
year is attributed to the large speculative
failures in the West but even deducting the
Indebtedness springing from this cause, the
increase in failures and liabilities is very
marked. There were 165 failure during the

preceding week, twelve more than the cor

True POlitenesS.

A poor Arab going through the des-
ert met with sparkling spring. Ac-
customed to brackish water, draught
from this sweet well in the wilderness
seemed, in his simple mind, q present
fit for the Caliph. So he filled the
leather bottle and, after weary tramp,
laid his gift at his sovereign's feet. The
monarch, with a magnanimity that may
put many Christian to the blush,
called for cup and drank freely, and
then with a smile thanked the Arab
and presented him with reward. The
courtiers pressed eagerly around for a
draught of the wonderful water which
was regarded as. worthy such princely
acknowledgement. To their surprise,
the Caliph forbade them to touch a
drop. Then, after the supplemented
giver left the royal presence, with a
new spring of JOY yelling up in his
heart, the monarch explained his motive
of prohibition: During the long
journey, the water in his leather bottle
had become impure and distasteful; but
it was an offering of love, and as such L
accepted it with pleasure. 1 feared,
however, that if L allowed another to
taste it, he would not conceal his dis
gust. Therefore it was that forbade
you to partake lest the heart of the
poor man would be wounded
