Especial Correspondence Of the Globe.1
New ORLEANS, Dec. 14.-The transition
from the brisk, cool weather Of st. Paul To the
soft, damp days of this end Of navigation.
from a sleigh ride to a walk through garden
where oranges are ripening and roses are in
bloom is, to the average Minnesotaian, .
most novel and interesting experience. Mon
day evening shivering in the icy streets, al
though wrapped in an ulster, and Thursday
morning perspiring in shirt sleeves; truly
our country is long and broad. The journey
here was full Of interest, the Royal Route
taking me through a handsome country IA
miliar to US all; then by the Illinois Central.
whose line trayerses first rich portion Of Il
hnois, and then enters that unproductive re-
gion known as Egypt" reaching Cairo at
the junction of the two great water courses,
the Mississippi and Ohio rivers.
Now we are in the country where the col
ored race seem to predominate, and lazy,
shiftless lot they appear TO be. Senator
Palmer, OF Michigan, said ''after three sub
stantial things, a full stomach, a suit of
clothes and bed to sleep on, all else in life
were simply Illusions" One OF the sub
stantial factors appears to answer for the ne
groes, for as long as their stomachs are full
they care for nothing else. They sleep in
the sun like an alligator. and pull on any old
garments they can find OF steal.
While waiting to be transferred across the
river at Cairo the passengers amused them
selves watching the antics Of q crowd of
about twenty young darkies, who followed
along the foot of an embankment and. as
niekels were tossed into their midst, the
scrambles for them were extremely fanny.
Piled on one another they formed a pyramid
of wriggling, writhing black kids; feet kick
ing in the air, lighting with hands and biting
with their white teeth, until some lucky
picaninny grasped the prize and quickly
popped it into his capaeious mouth as the
safest receptacle. This is regular pastime
for passengers at Cairo.
AS we now proceed south, all resemblance
to the north vanishes. Little cultivation Of
the land is found, and the small. rude huts Of
the colored people abound, while here and
there appears the pretentious mansion of
some former slave owner. An day we notice
the gradual changes Of natural characteristics
as we pass through Kentucky and Tennessee

DAKOTA EXHIBIT.

Commissioner Alex. Mckenzie Is doing
good work in preparing his Dakota display
and it viii be peculiarly attrae-
tive and creditable. His span is
the same as that Of Minnesota.
55xls5 and he has arranged it in a novel
manner to show the progress and process Of
development in a new country. A genuine
skin tepee with Indians and dogs stands by
the side OF a bark shack, and skins of ali
kinds are displayed to show the first industry
Of the territory. The interior Of the shack Is
elegantly decorated with handsome wall
papers TO give an idea of the present resi-
dences Of Dakotians.- A large circular park,
finely sodded and bearing trees, stands in
front, and here splendid specimens of the
animals belonging TO the region are placed
beneath the branches, while petriica-
tons, etc, are arranged about 1t is
handsome novelty. An octagonal pagoda
is the center-pieee Of the exhibit, and this is
decorated with agricultural products, an ear
Of corn cunuingly wrought, fourteen feet
high and bearing an eagle, surmounting the
whole. Here are excellent specimens Of
minerals, old Indian mills, Sioux Falls jasper
and Ignite, nicely arranged, and two corn
cribs are filed to bursting with sixteen var
ieties OF as fine corn on the cob as can be
found. Mr.. Mckenzie will produce SEN
sation with bis magnificent display of buffalo,
deer and elk heads. Of each of which he has
goOdly herd, and also his menagerie Of stuffed
animals. Dakota may be proud Of what her
commissioner accomplished.
The city is rapidly filing with people, and

BLAINES STRENGTH.

Evening Wisconsin 1t is known
that the Evening Wisconsin is and
intends to be fair toward all the
presidential candidates, and hasnot all d
in its columns any articles besmirching
the enviable reputation Of such state
men as Edmunds, Arthur, Logan,
Fairchild. Hawley, Allison, Harrison
Lincoln and Blaine. But every voter
is anxious to anticipate the outcome of
the Chicago convention to be held
June 8.
As matters now stand it is impos-
sible to forecast the result Of that con-
vention. But the drift of nearly all
the expressions in the different new
papers is to the effect that Blaine will
lead on the first ballot. Yet his
precise strength is matter Of such
conjecture that no two estimates agree.
One puts Blaine's first ballot at
367, another sinks it as low as 234.
1t is generally conceded that if Lo-
gan throws his entire strength for
Blaine he will be nominated. Logan's
friends place his strength at 70, and
the effect of such a combination
would be instantaneous on the con.
vention. as not few Of the Southern
delegates would gravitate at once to
the strongest candidate.
At this time it is interesting to
know the ballots which Mr.. Blaine
received in the previous conventions of
10 and 80. Such figures are always
interesting and particularly so at the
present time. On the final ballot
which terminated in the nomination of
Hayes in '76. Blaine received 351
votes and Hayes 3S4. Blaine received
on the first ballot in that convention
2s5 and gradually increased to 351
and there it stonped-379 being re-.
quired to nominate. In 1880 Blaine
received 2S4 on the first ballot and
his highest vote was on the thirteenth
ballot, 2S5. Garfield vas nominated
on the thirty sixth ballot by the
friends Of Blaine and Sherman going
over in q body to Garfield.
There were no combinations
in the convention Of 80 but il
looks in 1884 as though COM
binations would be formed between the
prominent candidates, because the
manifest disposition of the people is
no longer to select dark horse for
presidency. but to choose candidate
from the prominent statesmen Of the
country.
This should be the policy, as ;ndiff-
erent men should not be forced to
the front when really great men are
consigned to retirement.

II EIDLEbEhG, Uermany
EDITORS REpoRrER.-Few realize
except by experience the events and
incidental thross OF sea voyage
across the Atlantic 5000 miles in
width. The tension Of the mind,
through anxiety and omnibus appear
ance of the elements, cause the heart
to vary in it's beating when great black
rolling waves dash in violent fury over
the deck of the vessel making it
culver like reed in music-suppose

some delicate feelings that they never
again will look on the faces and homes
of those held dear, and that solid
footing has really gone, makes copious
tears of relief come quick and fast.
After the first two days a certain
disease seizes hold of about three
tourths of the passengers. Those
having the disease do not send for a
doctor and take very little patent
medicine but those having the disease

the network of villages spread all over
the land. The railroad system in
England is not so pleasant to an Amer
lean as her majesty might think Their
trains run faster and smoother but the
stations are very numerous. There is
first, second and third class. All ordi-
nary persons travel third class. You
are put in small coup and locked up
till you arrive at the next station when
the porter comes and announces the
station. The small coups hold some
6 to 8 passengers and do not open
into each other. No conductor goes
with the train but porter stands
waiting at each station ready to punch
tickets and inform passengers what to
do and where to GO. The baggage
man is called a guard and rides behind
the train in van Any baggage is
very troublesome to carry or English
railroads and very expensive in Ger
many. The switches are all moved
from central Offices by means of long
wires running on pullies. The engines
have no cow catchers on and no great
central headlight but a small one on
each side.

The special grand jury appointed to
consider the crimes in connection with
the riot and burning of the court
house, in Cincinnati, made a report
on the 18th to Judge Avery. The
report treats at length of the causes
leading to the riot and speaks of the
common report that jurors were bribed
of the general complaint that the
courts permitted too many delays,
and that good citizens avoided jury
duty to the detriment of a fair admin
istration of Justice.

The Republicans of Volusia are thor
oughly disorganized. They attempted
meeting at Daytona to ratify the nomina-
tions for the Legislature made by the
Republican Convention at ENTERPRISE,
and did not ratify at all. The following
on the subject is from the Daytona Hail.
fac Journal:
The ratification meeting Thursday night,
called by the Republican precinct Chairman,
WAS 80 largely attended by Democrats and bolt.
ing Republicans that il failed to be ratification
meeting. The former ratified" the regulars
out OF the house and had it all their own way,
making speeches, passing resolutions etc, and
wound up as they began. with a torchlight pro-
cessOn over the town.
The resolutions mentioned provided
for the calling of Convention of the

licans in opposition to the nominees of

Rogers, republican nominee Of the Enter

protest against the action of the boilers,
and says he will fight it out against the
torchlighters, who he conceives to have
been instigated and abetted by the wick

F. w. Pope, republican, radical, indie
pendent candidate for Governor, has at
last resi- gned his seat as State Senator
from Madison county. We suppose it
came hard for him to bid adieu to official
position for long, long time, if not for
ever-for otherwise he would have done
it sooner. He could no longer resist the
pressure of circumstances, nor disregard
the remarks of his friends and supporters,
as" eff you is so sho' you's gwine to be
Governor why don't you design outen de
Senate ?" Is you 'fcard you amt gwine
to be 'lected dat you holds on TO de Sen
ate?" "Come, Frank, resign your seat
at once, or these niggers Of ours will
never believe that we are going to win,
and will go back on us, for they want to
be on the winning side" He had to re-
sign to show his faith in his own conf
dent assertions to his mixed constitu-
ency that he is going to succeed, and now
he can tell them from every stump that
he resigned because he is certain of sue
ceeding. The resignation which removes
an enemy OF the State from her legisla-
tive councils was received At the capitol
last Thursday.
