Lighting Up the Dark Continent.

In the old school maps there was large
blank space in the center of the African
continent labeled UNEMPLOYED region" This
unknown land was an awful mystery to the
inquring lad of forty years ago, and he WAS
wont to people it with all sorts of fancrul
monsters evolved from his own imagination.
TIL schoolboy Of these days is not permitted
to exercise his fancy in giving form and
action and modes of life to the denizeps of an
unknown land, The "uuexplored region"
of the old maps of Africa has become the
this generation has solved the mystery that
has boen hanging over tho dark continent"
for thousands of years. The civilized world
has not yet comprehended the magnitude of
the work accomplished by Hon ry NJ, Stanley
in his exploration Of the valley of the Congo
river.
Tho region drained by the Congo and
its tributaries contains probably a million of
square miles Of the richest land on tho face
of the earth, and Mr.. Stanley estimates the
population at forty-nino millions of people.
Some of the African tribes are distinguished
for tho splendid physique Of both men and
women. Gen. Colston, in recent lecture,
delivered in this city, said the best regiments
that came under his notice in the Egyptian
army were composed entirely of men cap.
tured from the slave traders caravans and
put into the army because there was no other
place to put them. The principal occupation
of these people in their own country is fight
ing each other, and the cOnquerors sell their
captives to tho slave traders, When they
cease to fight tho slave trade will die. because
there will be no men nor women to sell.

The senate committee on foreign relations
has now under consideration . resolution

NRLoO and TcNyksbury.

Hon. Ethelbcrt Barksdale, member of con-
gress from the seventh district of Mississippi,
appeared before tho senate committee on
privileges aud elections yesterday, and made
a statement undor oath concerning his con-
noction with the events that have given Co.
pah county o worldwide notoriety. When
the committee was in New Orleans examin-
ing witnesses in tho Copiah affair it was
testified that Mr.. Barksdalo made speech OF
Hazlehurst not = long before the murder of
Matthews aud had recommended the shotgun
! policy. In his statement yesterday he adj
mittod that he had made two speeches, but
denied that he had suggested the killing of
any one. Mr.. Barksdalo is entitled to the
benefit of his denial, but witness who affects
to believe that the murder of Matthews was
the result Of personal difficulty between
himself and Wheeler is not likely TO have
much weight either with the committee or
with the country.
When interrogated as to what ho thought
of Copiah and Ysgoo, Mr.. Barksdale said that
he knew of nothing to the discredit of either
that would equal the "Tewksbury horror"
This was intended to be fling at Mr. Hoar,
who is supposed to take some pride in the
public institutions of Massachusetts,. 1t is
very probable that Mr.. Barksdalo has not the
least idea Of what "Tewksbury" is, except
such as he derived from the press reports of
Gov. Buffers investigation. Mississippi has
no such institution, and will not have in
the next hundred years The support of large
numbers of INDECENT and helpless people by
public charity is something that Mr. Banks
dale knows nothing about.
Gov. Butler very properly exposed the
official doad-beatism that had crept into the
management of tho Tewksbury almshouse,
and he made a special effort to wound tho
feelings of the gentlemen whose negligence
had permitted abuses to grow up by parsd-
ing all the disgusting facts before their eyes
that gould be dug out of the hospitals and
graveyards. There is something horrible in
the idea Of selling the dead bodies of paupers
to medical colleges, and yet the thing is done
wherever there is medical college. 1t is
only when a great parade is made of the I'M
savory business that delicately-organize
persons like Mr.. Barksdale are struck with
horror. He can console himself, however,
with tho reflection that it will be a long time
before Mississippi will have a. cwksbury aims.

National Republican. (Washington City (D.C.)) 1872-1888, 1884-03-22

There appears to be no good reason why
tho senate should be wasting SO much time in
the discussion of tho bill fixing the salaries of
United States district judges at 5000 year.
tsinly not extravagant, and is scarcely sufi-
cient to support the dignity of the Office in
some of tho districts. A lawyer of sufficient
ability to fit him for judicial Office gener-
ally makes Il pecuniary sacrifice in accepting
ii. A few months ago one of the United
States circuit judges resigned because rail-
road offered him far higher salary as its
standing counsel than he was receiving for
his services on the bench
Mr., George, of Mississippi, made speech
in opposition to the bill on Thursday, aud
laboriously went over q long series Of old
statutes to show that forty or fifty years ago
United States district judges were satisfied
with salaries ranging from 81 200 to $1,000 per
annum. In those days Mississippi was rop-
resented at least as ably in the United States
senate as she is now, and her sena-
tors were contended with IS day. Mr..
George would not argue that tho pay of
senators should DO reduced to 81 day, and
yet if his argument is worth anything this
would he its logical sequence. The change
in conditions which makes 1t impossible for
a senator to live on 50 day operates with
equal force upon United states judges and all
other public officers.
There arc substantial reasons for paying
judges even higher salaries than are paid to
executive officers, Their position should be
made absolutely independent, They are de-
barred to a very large extont from engaging
in other pursuits, aud, in fact, judge who
discharges his duty faithfully has no time to
give to anything else Further than this,
the salary should be sufficient to take away
from Judge the temptation to resign aud go
back to the practice OF law which is so fire.
quently presented, As a whole, tho judicial
department Of the United States government
is one Of which We can justly be proud, and
every citizen is interested In maintaining its
dignity and efficiency.
A salary of 5000 year may seem large to
man who derives his idea of tho cost OF
| living from what he knows Of household ex-
penditures in tho state of Mississippi; but
the simple tastos and habits that obtain
among MIR. Georges constituents have disap-
reared in Now York and Boston. 1t may be
the misfortune of the well.to'dO people OF the
northern citios that they have outsrowR the
possibility of maintaining large family on
5000 o year. but congress cannot bring
