COLONEL DENNY.
Some OF the California papers
have been making very unjust ana
ppgeperous remarks about colonel
Depby, tha new Minister TO CHINA,
on the supposition that no 10 more

toned 10 weigh his words well before
he utters them. So far he has said
nothing that exception can DO taken TO
nv ANYBODY not filled with anti-Chin-
ese preiudice. He has placed himself
on good terms with the official repre-
senJatiyos of the Chinese Empire at
Washir gtop, by exercising the
courtesy OF calling on them. The
call was promptly returned, ana
subsequently Colonel Denby dined
with the Chinese Minister by invita-.
ton. This was very sensible course
10 pursue, and there is no doubt that
Colonel ID. has thereby much increased
his power Of beretiting his country
abroad. No matter what his own pri-
yatc opinions may be in relation to
those peculiar people, no goes ttere
under the instructions OF the govern
ment, which he will be required to
carry out, and which, of course, no
will do in good faith. 1t will be Il me
enough for the California newspapers
to find fault when they know what
these instructions are. The govern
ment, not the minister, Is responsible
for them. The treaties between the
two countries, and our laws relating
to the Chinese, will also, of course, be
strictly observed.-[E Evansville Jour

PUNISHMENT FOR WIFE EEATERs.
The Cincinnati Commercial Gazette
has an editorial two columns and 81
half long against the flogging of WIFE
beaters at tho whipping post. II it
ever becomes necessary. to provide
punishment worse than the whipping
post for such rascals, nothing. could be
more effective than the reading OF all
the guilty culprit. If he survives, ell
right. But if he diep, as he probably
will, then he will deserve his fate,
however horrible 1t be- Baltimore
American.
GROWING BELIEF.
While O. small fraction OF tho North
ern Dress still effects to doubt the
ability of the New South to compete
with the older manufacturing regions,
and would like to 60 on considering
Southern planters as the poorly paid
agents for New England spinners, 1t is
easy to see that a conviction is spread
ing oil oyer the industrial world OF the
North and East to the effect that the
New South is not to be judged by the
standards of the old, and that in all
departments of business and industry
this section has been learning
and adopting the most APP
proved methods known to
be promotive OF success in other. re-
gions, and is to-day pretty fairly
Equipped to take care of itself in COM
merce, manufacture and agriculture.
Among other things which the North
ern press is beginning to recognize
with surprise, IL now generally con-
cedes that tue long-credit system, once
the bane of our agricultural, ana par
ticularly our cotton interest, is nearly
o thing of the past. Hard times aud
the experience Of credit system in
herently ruinous to legitimate farming
operations have combined to force cot
ton planting into methods Of organiza-
ton and finance growing each year
more like those properly applied to
other reputable productive adventures.
