Don't 90 to Tsx,s, Young Man.

General Dabney H. Maury, who
has been south recently in the in
terest of the Southern Historical
Society, is eminently sensible IL
civil as we'll as military matters.
He has recently written letter to
the Industrial South, published at
Richmond, Va, in which he takes
strong grounds against our young
men deserting their homes and seek
ing q hard life in Texas. He says:
Texas does well enough as a field
for able bodied, resolute young men
who love hard work and can stand
hard life, to SOW their wild oats and
to get rough experiences; but the
same energy, the same capital. the
same endurance (the same priva
tions are impossible) applied in
Virginia will build up a greater re-
suit, and amidst all that makes life
worth living. For women, Texas
is a hades. The life on a ranch
means for woman the hardest do
mestic drudgery-no servants, no
meat (fit for humans), }, no milk, no
butter, no doctor, no neighbors, no
church-and climate which drags
down by day and by night in winter
and summer; and there is not cold
spring in the state that l have
drank of and / have drank of
of the springs of the Rio Grande
from its source to its mouth-and
no ice except from the machines IN
the towns. know it all, because
have been there-had a ranch
there for many years, and have ever
since 1846 been familiar with every
part of the state. Therefore say
to the young men of Virginia, if
you can't find work among your
own glorious people, don't drag
gentle Virginia girl out to share
your rough fortunes, but mate with
those who know no better things.

farmers.
The range of knowledge to be at
tanned by a farmer is far wider
than that of any other calling or
pursuit. Others may shine out
with more seeming brilliancy, but
they are but stars, while farming Is
the grand central sun around which
all these stars revolve. We invite
special attention to the views
of Prof McBryde. They are
strong and are presented with much
ability.

It is inconceivable that any
country magistrate should oppose
the levy of q tax to build good
roads. Opposition might be ex-
pected from q city magistrate be-
cause the city bears a greater pro-
portionate burden Of the taxation
while the country secures the greater
share of the benefits from the ex
penditure of the proceeds of taxa
ton. The roads are built in the
country. They advance the price
of country acres. They are great
convenience to country people
They save the countrymsn many
dollars annually in wear and tear of
mules and wagons besides materi-
ally reducing the cost of transport
ing his produce to market. A
farmer living 10 miles from the city
on a macadamized road would be
practically no farther from market
than the farmer who lived one mile
from the city on a mud road. AS 8
mere question of self preservation il
is difficult to understand why the
country magistrates are not unani-
nous for even higher tax than il
proposed to he levied for the con
struction of good wagon roads.-Ex

SHERMAN FOR PRESIDENT.

The Wichita EAGLE is for Gen. Sherman
for President. Our friend Marsh had better
not be in too big a hurry about the Repub-
licah candidate In 1884. The action Of Con-
gress this winter, the drift Of public senti-
ment in the country during the next five
months, and great many other things that
may happen, will determine who should be
ADMINISTRATION Champion.
OF course we may be too fast. No man
can tell. To catch the drift of public opin-
ion, or the direction 1t will take before it
has fairly started, Is matter which often
employs the most delicate touch and fore
sight akin to intuition, but the EAGLES
support of Sherman comes from 4 conyic-
ton that he il the best man, all things con-
sidered, for the Republican party and for
the welfare OF the Nation. The attention
Of the CAdmpi0. H. called TO the following
extract from "Gath's" last letter 10 the
Cincinnati Inquirer:

Gen. Sherman as the candidate. How thor
oughly rooted the sentiment is, how much
Of IL is enthusiasm, which will wear of in
n short time, or how much of il H. based up
on known and definite qualities in the gen.
erals character and purposes, the fact still
remains that Sherman's name is received
with great lavor. The name of Governor
Porter is usually allied with Sherman's, al
though there are few who fix it SHERMAN
and Lincoln

the BLOODY SHIRT.

In regard TO the criticisms offered by
well meaning persons touching the ''boody
shirt spirit Of the EAGLE, last week, we
haze only In reply TO ask every man who
thought the spirit OF the South TO be in
harmony with the spirit of the Nation to
read the outrages committed in Virginia and
Mississippi ut the late election. The decis-
ion OF the.supreme court. or from the fact
OF the overwhel ming majority in Congress,
or because of some other fact, the old bull
DOING and shotgun spirit, which was
thought to have died out under the equita-
BILE policy Of the general government and the
prosperity of the country, blazed forth iu
acts Of horror which seem too bloody TO be
truthful, but which can no longer be de-
MED. Until the South not only feels, but
acts up to the spirit OF the laws OF the coun-
try, and recognizes as fully accomplished
NIL that the North claims as the result Of
the war until the South stops numbering
citizens black and white for no other rea-
sons than that they are Republicans-open-
ly and deiently numbering innocent people
and then publicly passing resolutions to
protect the murders, win the cry for justice
cease In the North. No sneer Of "bloody
Shirt from any source, can stop the cry
Of Indignation that must come from the
lips OF lsw-abiding and loyal citizens all
over this broad land.

THANKSGIVING SONG.


All through the meadows the soft winds
are sweeping;
All through the waters the bright fish are
leaping;
All through the forestssa thousand gay
banners
Swing in the sunshine as signals Of praise.
Down from the clear azure dome far above
Come the pure spirits who watch US and
love us;
And reverently gathering these emblems
OF praise,
They lay them before Him, the "Ancient
Of Days!"
fe beautiful spirits, We messengers tender,
Whose home is with God in heaven of
spiendor,
oh, bear on your pinions, ere passing
away,
Our songs Of Thanksgiving, as offered to-
day,
We know they are faltering and broken in
measure,
Yet God In his mercy will see that we treas
ure
His love and compassion as well as we
may,
While fettered by sin in our prisons OF
clay.
oh, let not the birds of the woods with
their singing
Surpass us, His children, in love tokens
bringing;
But let us swell louder our anthems OF
praise
For guarding our footsteps in devious
ways!
His mercies are boundless, His love never
ceasing;
The great debt We owe him is ever increas-
ing.
oh, touch, loving spirits, our hearts with
new fire,
And bear on your pinions our praises still
higher.

the PENSION PROBLEM.

There Is, We understand, q systematic
move determined upon by the G. A. Il
fraternity of the country for law pension
ing every man who served in the Union
army during the late war. We have moi
seen the text OF the petition. While there
are many public writers who have predicted
that sooner or later this would be the
policy Of the Republican party and conse'
quently the law Of the land. We question
its wisdom. To begin with the Democrats
now have the control Of the lower house
and as that party is controlled BY the South
this is the wrong time in which to move for
any REIMBURSEMENT Of the pension laws. But
outside of that objection we would favor .
different scheme. A large proportion OF
the vigorous and healthy ex-soldiers Of the
Union army do not want any government
aid. Our idea would be to let the present
laws stand supplemented by an enactment
giving to every ex-soldier of the Union
army stipulated pension for life when he
should have attained to the age Of say, ffty
or fifty-6ve year,. Which pension should
revert to his widow In case Of his death for
her life time. Such = policy would take
care Of all disabled soldiers Of the present,
and for such as were not disabled an assur.
ed sum for their old age The old-age PEN
sion should apply to all alike, and should be
large enough to keep without any other in
come, every recipient oft. Under such .
law every patriot who served his country,
whether rich or poor, would rest securely
in the knowledge that come what might, he
would be safe and provided for in his de-
clining years.

the FUTURE ISSUES.


The future political issues OF this coun.
try, and they are issues that the people will
soon crowd into the acceptance Of one Of
tie old parties or make them the foundation
Of = new party, are the rights of labor, the
control and regulation Of all incorporated
bodies, equitable taxation and prohibition
Of liquors as a beverage, in addition to the
leading cardinal principles Ms held by the
Republican party of to-day, such as equal
civil rights for the Negro, anti-polygamy,
etc.
The day is about over for watered stocks,
for gambling on the aggregate annual pro.
auctions OF the entire country, for the levy
ing of millions OF toll by individuals In q
single days transactions, and when the
comparatively poor men must pay, practi-
cally, all the taxes necessary to administer
ing the affairs Of the government. And
the EAGLE is ready for the new issues.

EAGLE and pasted closely together; it is
Twenty-Five feet long and contains only the
