A rather fantastic argument was made
by the Hon. Roscoe Conkling before the
Supreme Court of the United States the
other day, to the effect that railroad COR
porations are under tbs protection of the
fourteenth amendment to the Federal
Constitution. The amendment, which
Was designed to meet the new condition
of persons in the South resulting from
the war, declares that all persons born
or naturalized the United States are
Citizens, and that no State shall deny
to any person within its jurisdiction the
equal protection of the laws AS every
knows. the object of this provision was
to clothe the e~mancipated slaves of the
south with the full priviii. es of Ameri.
can citizenship. Under it have grow
up h civil rights laws for comforting
upon co'ored citizens equal social privi-
'tgcs With the whites In hotels. theatres,
railroads. etc, But Mr. Conkling seeks
to give The provision a much wider appli-
cation III extending il to corporations, or
artificial persons that are not born
or naturalized but are created by law.
ne case comes up OF appeal from the
Circuit Court Of California on the suit of
county of San MateO against the South
ern Pacific Railroad for taxes. Under
the new Constitution of California the
property Of corporations is assessed by a
State Board, and the share of each
county 10 which any part of that proper
ty may lie Is apportioned to that countv
which proceeds to collect the tax. In The
Court below Justice Field aud Judge
Sawyer gave a decision in favor of the
railroad company.

In South Carolina the growth of cot
ton manufactures has been most remark
able, and especially during the last de
cade. In 1850 there were Is mills 10
the State, with a capital of 1857 POO.
which gave employment to l,Ol9 hands,
consumed A, $50, 500 pounds of cotton,
and yielded productions that were valued
at $S42, 40, the value o fthe annual pro-
duct amounting to almost as much as
the capital invested. Ia 1860 there were
II mills in the State, nth 525 Iooms.
80, 800 spindles and y capita Of $SOl, OPS.
They gaze employment to eo4 hands,
paid out 1923, 300 in wages, consumed
1878. O6l pounds of cotton and yielded a
product valued at $7l3,05O. In l77O
745 looms, 1858 spindles and a capital
Of 81, 3S7, 900. They paid out $2s7, $50
in wages, rave employment to 1,l23

aud yielded a product valued at 81,

factories refused to give any particulars
as to their business) with 1910 looms,

500. They paid out $40 900 in wages,
gave employment to 2, 1875 hands, con
sumed IA, SCI 500 pounds OF cotton and
yielded a product valued at So, $50, 10.
The production OF the South Carolina
cotton mills In 1880 amounted TO neatly
one million dollars more than the amount
Of capital invested in them, and yet we
are told that the Yankees can beat us
manufacturing cotton goods. There was
never so great mistake, and as the years
go by experiments are proving that the
cotton States hold the key to the future
commercial destiny of this country.

Among the uany splendidiy dressed la
dies who attracted special attention during
the progress Of the ''Charity'' ball was
Mrs. Alfred II. Moore, OF Seventeenth and
Spring Garden streets, who was lesplen
dent with diamonds and lace. She wore
two pairs Of diamond bracelets, with
clusters Of diamonds at the clasps and a
double string Of diamonds around the
arm; a pair OF very large and brilliant
earrings magnificent coronet of dia
monds, and a most splendid necklace Of
diamonds that flashed like fire from her
head. neck and throat. A pair Of dia.
mond buckles held the lace Of her dress
at the arms, and a diamond-studded
comb held up her hair in a coil at the
back of her head. The value of the dia-
monds worn by Mrs. Moore was not less
than $35 900, and the lace of which the
dress was made was worth almost as
much more philadelphia Record.
A horrible story of poverty and self
murder was told in the papers late in a
telegram from Trenton n. JERSEY. An
unknown man, who had vainlv beooed

a train and had his head almost sever
ed from his body" He had accosted
