THE Washington Post ''notes with especia
pleasure" the suggestion that the State estab-
lish reformatory for juvenile offenders in
stead of sending them to the penitentiary. II
it were desirable to make confirmed GRIM
inal of every boy or girl who is convicted Of
crime, that purpose would be best accom-
plished by sending him or her to the peniten-
tiary, where, in the society of hardened
wretches, all the advantages of finishing
school for criminals are presented. But if the
reformation OF the young malefactoris deemed
worthy Of effort-and we think it is, whether
regarded in relation to its moral aspect or as a
practical matter of business-then reforma-
tory for beginners in crime should be estab-
lished in every State. Texas is moving for
ward with the stride of giant in the develop.
ment of her vast resources, and we believe
her moral and educational progress is scarcely
less remarkable. Governor Ireland's message
shows that he appreciates the necessity o.
such wise legislation as will best TT the State
for her great future"

A Serious Charge.


Vickshurg Herald.
Referring to the charge OF Cap
tain Put Dar,len, that "A Judge of
the supreme court has sent TO "a
high railroad Official for free passes
for his family the Meridian 90
serrer SAYS:
And now there is a great cry
going up from the people to Mr..

judge. We have three supreme
judges, aud the innocent should be
relieved from suspicion at once.
Capt. Darden owes il TO himself

An amusing story is told abeut
the ordination OF a young English
Clergyman whose name was Salter.
Nature had GIFTED him with hair
which was The leddest OF re,l. Feel.
ing that In the solemn ceremonial
of his ordination this red might be
the cause of irreyerent mirth, es-
pecialIy as the ritual prescribes
that the bishop should touch it, he
determined TO dye it black for the
OCCASION, which he did. The bishop
afterward expostulated with the
hapless Salter, and alleged against
him the authorit, OF the rubric in
the prayer book, which says: 'The
psalter must be read in the

ST'1ID IOUi.

Washington Register, Dem.
The staid State of Iowa, a State
whose moral influence has been so
great that hitherto whiskey has
turned to water at the mention of
the Commonwealth's name, and
angels have deserted heaven to pre-.
empt corner lots in the suburbs of
the super-dlvine Burlington--has
been of late going back on its self
constituted record, aud entered into
the ungodly business OF lynchlng.
A mob composed of several hun
dred of its most reputable citizens
last week broke into a county Jail,
overpowered the sheriff and his
quasi:posse, led out twolplisoners to
the slaughter, aud choked them
to death with the novel hempen ap.
paratus. In commenting upon the
act the devout Iowa journals en-.
Enthusiastically advertise the fact
that "there was nothing unsremly
in the affair throughout. There
vas not pistol used, no boisterous
language, the prisoners were not
even taunted by their captors, aud
throughout the entire proceeding
not a single pofane word or ex-
preston was uttered.D Now that
was really kind oil tie part OF the
lynchers, and. We have no doubt
that the two men hanged by them
went to their death deeply Impress

ed before them by their Iowa hang

Mcclellan on Southern Generals

"Sidney Johnston died too sOou. |

Judgment, however, informed me
that Gen. Johnston was an officer ol
commanding ability. He enjoyed
the friendship aud confidence OF

him to display his abilities at their
best.p
Which was the greatest soldier,

Both had genius commensurate
with their opportunities aud both
deserve to be ranked among the
greatest generals OF the age"
"Was either greater than the
otherp I" 1t would be hard to tell.
They were, doubtless, possessed OF
different qualities. Lee was quick
to plan, aud Johnston matcLless in
performance. Lee was superb IN
the defensive, and Johnston with.

had grand fighting qualities, and
Johnston could equal Napoleon in

A STAB AT FREE FRIDE.

Atlanta Constitution, Dem.
The philadelphia Times writes
a painful lly laborious essay to prove
that the Southern people are not in
favor of free trade. AS nobody
ever supposed they are, the crush.
ing nature of the argument may be
estimated. What the Southern
people want is the reduction OF
tariff taxation in the interest OF
justice, honesty aud common sense.
There is 10 question of 'fee trade n

All trimmed with led, red roses,
And a blaekbird on the briIn.
She ties il dowl with ribbons
Under her dimpled chin;
For Oftentimes it's breezy
When sue comes tripping in.
She'll drop dainty courtesy,
Perhaps she'll throw kiss;
She brings so many hundred
That one she'll never miss.
With laughing, sunny glanees.
She comes, s,her friends to greet
There's not another maiden
In all the world so sweet

n strong man lay upon his DEATH

her with eyes, whose love was soon
TO be quenched in death, and said
in faltermg voice:
"Pspa must go alone-papa must
so alone u long, long Journey"
The little one slipped from the
bed aud ran out the room. Soon
she returned with hat and cloak on,
ready tor "a walk, and her little
satchel on her arm. Even in that

unconscious, aud the heartstricken
