The New Time.

To-day Is inaugurated far.rcaching re-
form In noting time. 1--WE take no note
Of time but from Its loss" says POLLOK.
To-day, In noting time, we take long step
towards making all the Kingdoms OF the
world one kingdom. Henccforth we shall
be able TO look at our clocks or watches
and know exactly the time everywhere In
the United States. and also In England,
Scotland, and Wales. Howf Simply In tins
manner We have adopted the eastern
standard-time--that Is, the time OF the
18th meridian. The 10th meridian Is
five even hours west OF Greenwich;
and all England, Scotland, and Wales, keep
the Greenwich time. We, too. keep the
lating our watches so as to make them keep
the time Of the 10Th meridian, we regulate
them by Greenwich time, since we count
westward from Greenwich-the starting
point. What is your time now? Just
seven O'Clock. you are reading TINS
mornings Dispatch at an early hour
Very wen. IT is Just twelve o'clock. noon,
in England. not q minute before or after,
but just twelve, IL your watch il exactly
right. On the other side OF us, IL Is SIX
O'Clock at st. Louis, five at Denver, ana
four at San Francisco.
But that "twelvc O'Clock, noon.'
.stwelve O'Clock, NJ" "twelve O'Clock,
Z. NJ" &C., &C., "must CO." When
railroad conductor is furnished with a
timetable, it ought to have nothing but
the proper figures on it. Many persons
are employed in humble capacities on rail-
road trains who hardly know "a. NJ"
from "P. NJ" How long sinceyou learned
that "12:3O p. NJ" means half-past twelve
In the day 4? and "12:30 A. NJ" half-past
twelve in the night? Are you quite sure
now that such is the fact
But we advocate another reform. In the
name OF humanity, is there any good rea-
son why we should longer risk every day
the lives OF tens Of thousands OF travellers
by using an antiquated dial by counting
the hours as they were first counted by the
Babyonians thousands OF years ago! One
wheel added 10 the present number in a
clock or a watch viii make 1t keep the
hours correctly from one to twenty
four. II is nothing to put twenty
four numbers on the dial. What
rs the impeachment? What the objection
us inert,g prejudice, old fogyism,
what you will. Surely it would be much
better to number the hours from to "a.
Why. the saving of space in books and
newspapers, and the saving Of type, would
be immense. In railroad timetable d" y.
NJ" or "P. NJ" or the turned commas
which indicate them, would disappear
from L thousand places. But, above all.
there would be no room for such mistakes
as so often cause accidents. The hour
marked 1880" may now be either $3.50 n.
NJ. or $3.50 +. NJ; but then every hour
would speak for itself; $3.50 A. NJ. would
appear as 1880, and G:3O 2. NJ. simply as
$50. And so on.
When once the United States and Eng
land shall adopt the new method OF count
ing the hours the whole world will do it.
Away with old fogyism.
=. S. To-day at IL, noon, the clocks will
be changed; but that fact does not require
us to change our 7-o'clock illustration.

The NEGROES.

We have received communication-the
result, no doubt. Of northern libels upon
our people--advising virginians to encour-
age the immigration OF whites and the
emigration OF negroes. II is not the fault
of the negroes that the northern press
teens with falsehoods concerning the farm
ers, planters, mechanics, merchants, law
yers, doctors, clergy. &C., &C., Of Virginia,
nine-tenths of whom, in this section at
least, voted the Democratic ticket at the
recent election. The northern papers will
soon become ashamed Of their bloody-shirt
literature.
We would encourage the immigration oil
whites. The white line is gradually NOV

Yesterdays Dreadful Accident.

There were good many accidents yes
terday. There will be some to-day, and
probably more or less tomorrow. Chill
dren are tumbling down stairs. Women
are lighting fires with kerosene. Boys are
playing with pistols. Big men are sprain-
ing their ankles as they try to catch the
moving train. Babies will get their little
thumbs caught in the doors. Bruised shins,
dislocated joints, and mashed fingers con-
stantly remind us that accidents may take
place at any moment. People who have
Perry Dayis's Pain-Killer can smile at most
Of the accidents that befall them. Those
who have not tried it are reminded that
they do not have 10 run further than the
nearest drugstore to bay it.

.[From our special Reporter !

a delightful dance was given by
the young gentlemen of Osceola on
Tuesday night, at the Court House,
in honor of the approaching depart
ure of Miss Mollie Matthews and her
guests, the beautiful Memphians,
Mrs. Simpson Tate, Miss Maggie

The band brought from Memphis
was a charming departure from the

the hours fed by in swift delight.
The evening was stormy, and
many of the pretty dancers sighed
when they thought of their daintily
slippered feet, but the tragical call
of the prompter, the spirited music,
blended with the musical voices of
the musicians, changed the sighs to
smiles and laughter, and "On with
the Dance" while "joy was uncon-
fined" until the tremulous dawn of
the morning. Dor.

Now don't that just beat every
thing? We do admire pluck and
enterprise! In no calling is it SO es-
sential as in journalism. and there is
nothing so Improbable and unpala-
table as news items that have lain
on the shelf till they are stale from
and we would just like to know
how it is, that the Yindicator man,
living away over in the wilds of wes-
tern Arkansas, could have been so
well posted as to affairs in Russia, as
to be able to announce the corona
ton of the Gar, as an accomplished
fact five days before it was consum-
mated; also giving the non-attend-
ing circumstances. We greatly fear
that Bro knoble is a Nihilist; if not,
we always keep our eyes skined for
anything new in the way of inven-
tions, and try to keep up with the
times, at least, as near as three mails
week, on an average, will let us !;
but we feel the isolation of our sit
uation keenly and therefore hustle
around lively in hunting up news
items that had not attained their ma
jority before the food; now if our
brother Editor has discovered a
means by which he can forecast the
the news of the world for his rural
sheet, without the aid of the mod.

CITY AND COUNTY PAPERS

Are the city papers cheaper and
better than the county papers be-
cause they give more reading matter
for the money? Do the city papers
ever give any home news? Never.
Do they contain notices of your
schools, churches, meetings, improve
ments and hundreds Of other local
matters of interest which your paper
publishes without pay? Not an item.
Do they ever say word calculated
to draw attention to your county and
its numerous thriving towns, and aid
in their progress and enterprise? No.
And yet there are men who takes
such contracted views of this matter
that unless they are getting SO many
squares of reading matter in their
paper they think they are not getting
the worth Of their money. Such was
the idiotic idea of the person who
took the largest pair Of shoes in the
box because they cost the same as
| the pair much smaller that fitted
him. i Exchange.

One reason, says an exchange,
why laws are not better enforced, is
because men are selected as jury
men who have no interest in seeing
them enforced, and in many instanc-
es are more in sympathy with law
breakers than with law and order,
and hence it is but natural that their
verdicts nearly always have ten
dency to screen the criminal. Such
men should never be selected upon
juries, for their integrity and vene-
ration for right and justice are so
slightly developed as to render them
unsafe jurors. ...
