Two classes of men in the south aim to
overthrow the bourbon democracy; one en-
braces the republicans black and white who
remain true to principle, and the other the
men who have been democrats, but who have
now left the democratic party forever because
of its obstinate hostility to national and
state interests. These men are all in perfect
harmony. There are two classes of men in
the south who aim at the preservation of the
bourbon democracy; one embraces the bour-
bon impacables, and the others tho small
element who want only just enough ropubli-
cans in each state to hold the federal offices.
Tho bourbons and their x-republican laclloys
are bowling with anger and pain because
their game is made clear, and their days are
numbered.

THE addresses delivered on decoration day,
with rare exceptions, were more in keeping
with the real and proper objects of the ccre-
monies than they have been heretofore.
Thore was total absence of bitterness and
hate, and an evident disposition toward al
lcgance and fraternity to DO noticed rs the
leading features of the orations. This is as
IL shold be, and tho significance of these an
nual celebrations hereafter will mark now
era of nationality, which will grow stronger
with advancing years.

VanderbiIt,s Big Game.


81 am astonished, said we'll known and
influential Wall street man yesterday, hat
nobody on the newspapers had tumbled TO the
enormous Vanderbilt game that is going on.'
" Enormous camel" repeated tho particu-
lar newspaper man to whom he was talking.
" Is IL new game2 What is it2
"Simply this Tho Vanderbilts have been
for some time unloading New York Central.
They held at one time nearly all of the eighty
millions of Central stock, and now the whole
family hold only about five millions"
" DO you know what they got for it 2"
well, they don't propose in shifting ro-
sponsibility to lose all management | tell
you that that West Shore road has worried
them more than all the legislation. But they
are going to make money out of it,"
" How soP
"Just as they have always done. When
they have got rid of most of their stock
quietly you will see the worst management
in the New York Central that il has over
displayed-and IL has been pretty bad at
times, Do you know what will take place
then? Down will go the stock. Yes, sir,
he's going to use that West Shore road Ia
bear his own interests Then he'll cut the
rates and down she'll go again. Now, where
do you suppose Vanderbilt will be when that
stock reaches hard pan? Take my word fol
it, he will be ON deck, and don't you forget it
and will gobble up tho whole business Sc
quick it will never know what happened
Then he'll pool his interests with the Wes
Shore, up will go tho rates and the stock, and
there you are, You know!"
big thing" said the newspaper man
Every big thing. But it involves question
Of ethics. That is to say, it presents mos
graphic picture TO tho mind of speculate
tossing up a railway as gamblers flip dollars
and not caring who gets hurt so long as h,
makes his pot of money"
"Oh, we'll" said the Wall street man
that's a view of the question that we dom
bother with down here.H

A DISPATCH from Jackson, Miss, to New
Orleans paper represents that the republican
executive committee of Madison county, in
that state had fused with the democratic
committee against the independents. Also
that similar action would be had in Kinds
county. II is stated that tho terms of the
bargain will be submitted to the democratic
and republican conventions. If there are
any republicans in Mississippi or any
where else who desire to act with the
democratic party, they should bo encouraged
to give themselves over to the arrangement.
The mutual disgrace to the parties concerned
would promote the political health of the
noighborhood. The republicans of Missis-
sppi will sustain no loss, for they will be
much better of without the association OF
men under democratic control. They will
then have no more croakers against gaining
strength by coalitions with true rebels against
the bourbon party.

Through tho Indian Reservation.

The secretary Of the interior has received
from the Northern Pacific Railway company
checks for $23625, to be paid the Flathead
Indians for right OF way through their reser-
walton in Montana. The checks are for &c.
600 and 81, ,G25 respectively. The former sum
is to be divided among the Indians in common,
and the latter amount is TO be paid to indi-
vidnal Indians, who had made special im-
provements directly on the route selected by
the railway. The agreement of the railway
company to pay these amounts was brought
about by Assistant Attorney General Mccain
mon, who some months ago visited the
Flathead reservation as commissioner of
the Interior department, and also had author
ity to act as the representative of both tho
railway company and the Indians. The agree
ment is subject to ratification by congress,
but as the road has already been built through
the reservation the secretary of the interior
deemed it but proper that the S7,625 should
be paid to the Indians at once The money
has been forwarded to the Indian agent for
distribution. The $4,000 will not be dis
tributed at present

"Boss" RANSOM, who has just been re-
elected to the senate from North Carolina by
the aid of republicans who were unwilling to
tervew, in which he says loftily that " the
republicans arc only known there by the
frightful and ruinous track of the carpet
bagger" He complacently claims for the
bourbons all the cardinal virtues, including
passionate love for constitutional govern
mont, and contempt for office, and is decid-
edly opposed to republican bosses.

THE Tonquin war inaugurated by France
against China is likely to prove more Sc
rious affair TO the former than had been sup
posed.
The Chinese, although slow to make
changes, and persistent in olinging to ancient
methods and means, as well in civil as in mill
tary affairs, have in the last decade gradually
availed themselves Of many Of the improve
inents of western nations, and have
greatly advanced in military knowledge.

80 per cent, deciding that this was about
the stage ofhonesty they had reached and
about all that they could bear at once.
These Legislators didn't want to be glut-

the expense Of the other States. As
this action tended to make the Legis-
latnre obnoxious in the eyes Of every

pension bill, giving ten dollars month

one or both eyes, and TO all Union sol
