GOOD BYE 1885.

| ~ "So NN'1 iNi~o t'is' Charles Dickens embodied in his Chri. tmas carol named "The Haunted Man" In this short story, the best that ever came from the pen of the great magician of words, he showed lthat even in the most unfortunate lives, joy predominated over sorrow, pleasure over pain. That memory was always blessing, never a curse. If this i, true of the live of all sin, gle indiyiauals, il must be also true oi the broader life of the whole human race, aud each year as it passes must contribute its quota of blessings up on the toiling, seething mass of hu- manity that struggles through it, If we analyz. individual cases ia any year, curious complications will be met with which will seem to upset this theory, but in the general run It will be found that all things work together for good to them that do their level best. That growth, pros periiy and happiness to the human race are constantly marching shoul- der to shoulder with old Father Time.
 Our dead friend 1885, will not stand out very boldly in the record of the centuries. It was not an Annas MIra- 6IHs among the cycles that have come and gone since the year the Christ was born. It was commonplace old ear, in which nothing very wonder ful transpired, Europe has been so quiet that 1t only had one war, and that was so small that 1t was over be. fore most of the people knew where it was located. At home we have had change of government and considerable change of office holders, After score of years of banishment, the Democrats are again in the ring, with three good years before them to show what sort of fight they can make. While business has not been very prosperous, there has been no hard-felt depression, and throughout the whole year there has been no very serious disasters, either on sea or land.
 The neurological record of the year presents 2 long array of worthies, ia nous in almost every domain of hu- man action and thought. TAe roll i, 100 long to even mention names, al though some of them are among the brightest on inc page of history. Bat there are two that stand out boldly in the van of the silent cavdlcad. Vic tor. Hugo and Ulysses s. Grant. The one king among men of letters, who iabored for a republic of politics as well as of thought. The other, mighty man of war, who became the apostle of peace.
 The curtain has been rung down on the last act of the year of grace, 1885 While some of it's recollcctions may not be pleasant, aud 1t would seem to be boon 10 be able to ior- get them, others are so overfowing' with joy that we can all join in the prayer of Dickens "Iaunted Man" and say with him, "Lord keep my memory green"

His Promise Made Good.

Representative Nor wood has made
good his promise to have the Collector of
this port and the Postmaster Of this city
removed and Democrats appointed as their
successors soon after the adjournment Of
Congress. The President was urged
strongly for year or more to make the
changes which ne made yesterday, but
for some reason or other he hesitated to
do so. 1t makes very little difference now
what his reasons for delay were. Demo-
Gratis will soon fill all the important Fed
eral offices In the city-and in the State
for that matter-except that of the Mar
shalship of the Southern district. 1t is not
improbable that q successor to the pres
ent Marshal will soon be appointed, and
then the President will have made clean
sweep, 30 tar as the important offices OF
this State are concerned. With the excep-
ton of postmasters there are compare
lively few Republican Federal officials in
the South now, and the Republican post
masters, who, by the way, hold only
minor Offices, will gradually be replaced
by Democrats.
The President has been criticised by
some quite severely for not removing
more promptly Republican officials at the
South, but fair and unbiased review oil
his course is calculated to leave the i'm
preston that he has acted prudently and
wisely. About all the offices which dc
not come within the jurisdiction of the
civil service law are now filed by Demo.
Gratis. Republicans have been removed SO
quietly. and Democrats appointed to sue.
coed them, that the country has hardly
realized that the offices We're being trans
ferred to Democrats. A clean sweep a.
the very outset would have excited criti
cism, antagonized the Senate, and created
doubts about the sincerity OF the Presi-
| DENTS civil service reform declarations
While the President is not restricted il
any way by the civil service law, yet it is
his policy to be guided in making ap
pointments by civil service reform prin
ciples. The South has stood squarely by
the President, and there is every indica
ton that he intends to stand squarely by
| the South.

Growing Importance of the south.

Growing importance of the South.
The press Of the entire country, es-
peciallv of the Eastern States, has been
giving greater attention to the SOuth ior
the last year or two than to any other
section OF the country. In the New YORK
and Boston newspapers there ls almost
every day some alusiOn to the rapidly
improving material condition OF the south,
or some discussion of Southern Industrial,
economic, or race problems.
While a great deal of that which APP
pears in the public prints respecting the
South shows want OF information about
the subjects discussed, the main purpose
of the writers, except those who discuss
politics from an extreme republican
standpoint, is to do the South
good. Even the mistakes, which
are sometimes rather remarkable because
they are so directly contrary to the truth,
are not Of character TO do the South
harm. The more fully the South is kept
before the public, so far as her resources
and industries are concerned, the better
it Is for her. She cannot be advertised
too well. There arc more immigrants
and capital coming into the South now
than ever before, and it is matter for
cOngratulation that the immigrants are a
very desirable class. They have some
means and are intelligent and progress
sive.
One OF the reasons why the South is at
tracing 80 much attention from the lead
ing men of the country is that they see
great future in store for this section of
the country. The best lands of the West
are occupied, and the current of immi-
grafton cannot run strongly in that direc-
ton much longer. 1t will be turned
gradually towards the South, ana in the
very near future the development Of the
SOuth's rich mineral and agricultural re-
sources will receive an impetus that will
attract wide attention.
Many of those who pretend TO speak for
the South make the mistake 81 suppOsing
that the views of public questions affect
ing Southern interests which prevail
among their acquaintances 10 their re-
spective neighborhoOds are those which
are held by the entire South. Such mis-
they proceed from harmless vanity, but
they sometimes lead to confusion in the
public mind respecting the actual con-
dition of Southern sentiment concerning
public matters. Nothing is more COM
mon, for instance, than for q Southern
man who Is a protectionist-snd South
ern protectionists are comparatively
scarce-to talk at the North as if the South
were in favor of high protective tariff.
OF course a glance at the vote on the
motion to consider the Morrison tariff
bill shows where the South stands with
respect to the tariff. In all the Southern
State conventions lately held the admin
istration has been strongly Endorsed, and
it will hardly be denied that 1t favors a
reduction Of the tariff to a revenue basis.
Messrs. Morrison and Carlisle, and not
Mr.. Randall, voice the tariff views Of
the South.

Saunders, of Arkinsaw,"

Capt. McGrath clerk OF the Supreme Court
tells good story of his war experience, saws

the war at least the world sometimes seemed

we're supplied with rations under Gen
Grants order, the same as their guards. but
they didn't always, or even generally, eat
alone. The Union soldiers followed with
them to great extent, and while guarding
them as prisoners, really treated them as old
friends and discussed the incidents of
the siege with them with great relish.
Among the prisoners was young
officer named Saunders, belonging to an
Arkansas regiment, who became favorite
in the camp OF the Seventeenth and spent a
good deal OF time for a few days among its
officers. He had come OF u good family, was
well educated, and among gentlemen always

days later he parted from his recent foes now

new Yankee uniform which his entertainers
had made M for him to replace the battered
garb in which he had been captured. He
went away expecting never TO see his new
