what the war Was For.

1t is stultifying puerility for Mr.. Sher-
man to cry out against the formor rebels
for performing the duties and claiming
the rights of citizens in holding Office
when they were compelled by force OF
arms to resume their citizenship and had
their disabilities removed by Republican
congress, for the express purpose OF
opening the way to the service of which
the senator from Ohio now complains
Either the war was bloody farce OF
every eX-Confederate now In the service
OF the nation has just as good a right TO
be there as John Sherman has.

NOTHING like prohibition. Georgia
has over ninety local option counties, and
her legislature is strongly prohibition.
Witacss the logical result. Bills to tax
all unmarried men over thirty years of
age, and to prevent fishing on Sunday,
have already been introduced. Blue laws
of this nature are natural sequence
when such narrow-mlnded and mrcason-
able fanatics get the reins in their hands

New Orleans Times Democrat, Sept |.
II Is in Texas, however, that the greatest
improvement has been made, and in Texas
the greatest agricultural production Sc
cured. The immense size of the state,
and the varieties in its climate enables il
To cultivate all kinds of crops, and ut the
same time TO carry on such other indus
tries as cattle and sheep raising. In the
matter OF cotton 1t has made wonderful
progress, and a crop Is claimed for this
year OF between 100000 and 1000, 900
bales. The Texas cotton crop Is largely
what this staple should be everywhere in
the Sonth-a surplus crop to which the
farmer deyotes his attention after he has
assured himself of his food supply. II
represents cash surplus, therefore. and
renders the Texas farmer Independent,
and far more free of debt than those of
most of the other cotton states,
The credit system is much less preya-
lent through Texas than formerly. The
farmers are learning, moreover the nd.
vantage of cultivating more closely. i'm.

throughout the South some wears ago.

INC Increase oi acreage in the state, there

result IS that the yield per acre is now
larger and the profit greater than ever
before. The necessity for diversified i'm.
dnslries and varied crops is fully recor.

DUPED ABOUT A SwINDLER.-on Tuesday
last tall colored man, giving the name of Bill

having some houses In course of erection and
ready use for the sand, thought he had struck
n bargain, and stipulated for the whole boat

that he would like 1t taken on as soon as pos

once, and early Wednesday morning he en-,
gagged teams and proceeded TO the named
wharf for his sand. Upon arriving at the
wharf he was disappointed in not finding the
boat there, and was surprised, on inquiry, to
find that the boat had not been there. He sus-
pieioned something wrong, and made a search
around the waters edge as for as the Long
Bridge, but the search was in vain. No sand,
no Bill Jones was to be found. Mr.. Lloyd at
last came TO the conclusion that he had been

THE EVENING CRITIC.
OPPOSITION TO KELLEY.
a HUNDRED Protest Against the New
Minister 20 Rome

minister TO Rome.
1t is currently rumored in diplomatic and
official circles that the Italian government
has protested against the appointment as
Minister to Rome of man, who, in 1871
delivered an incendiary speech in opposition
to the Italian government and Victor
Emanuel. At the State Department no
such protest has been received aud no init
nation has been given that such a step is TO
be tGkon, but IL the story Is true the De-
paItmoDt would not have been likely to
have heard from the matter thus early
The Italian Minister, If notified by his gov
eminent of a protest against Keiley's APP
pointment, or If counseling his govern
ment to protest, would have no right to
personally present the matter to the De-
partment. Any protest to receive official
attention would have to come from tho
Italian government direct.
Such protest would be by no means un-
pTecedented. After the appointment and
confirmation Of Kasson as Minister to Spain
the Spanish government protested on ac-
count of his advocacy of republic Of Cuba,
and he was sent TO Austria instead of Spain.
There arc several similar cases, and 1t is
supposed that protest from Italy in this
instance would BIO respected. The friendly
relations existing between the United
States and Italy and the well-known de-
sire of Secretary Bayard to have Kelley re-
ceived at Rome lead many people to doubt
that such a protest has been or will BIO
made.

Quite stream of men poured into the
