ENCOURAGING.

Two good indications have Just come
from the South.
s,Governor Taylor, of Tennessee, refuses
to be a tool of his partisans in aiding to
rob Evans OF his seat in the next House
of Representatives because he ia Repub-
lican. He has had the nerve and the hon
esty to resist the great pressure brought
to bear on him to take part in the foul
conspiracy.
The other cheering sign is that Govern
or Seay, Of Alabama, approves the coa-
duct of sheriff Smith of Birmingham in
refusing to surrender the Jail under his
care to bowling, murderous mob. Ii
was hard alternative forced on the sher-
III, but his oath and obligation required
him to maintain the law and to defend the
Jail aud its prisoners at all hazards In
the positions they have taken the Govern
or and the sheriff have the thanks of good
citizens of the entire country. Let their
example be extensively copied in the
South. maintaining the laws for the de
Tense of white and colored citizens alike,
and new era will dawn on that section
of the land and have a wholesome inf1u-
ence in the North as well.

AMERICAS MERCHANT MARINE.
A Report Which Shows That it is Sec
ond Only to That OF Great Britain.

The report of Commissioner of Narigs-
ton. for the year ending. June 80, lsss,
shows!tha, the total tonnage of the country
required to be included in his statistics
amounts to 4,i9l ,9l5 tons and that our mer-
chant marine is second only to that Of Great
Britain. The Commissioner remarks that
so much has been said as TO the decay of our
merchant marine that perhaps a large pro-
portion of the people of this country have
the impression that there is but little tonnage
left belonging to the United States. This
impression is erroneous. While the amount
is not so large as it should be. considering
the growth of the country, and while it is
true that the foreign going tonnage is de-
creasing. the domestic or cosst-wise tonnage
is increasing.
The tonnage of the United States probably
exceeds the aggregate tonnage of Italy,
France. and Russia, and equals that of the
whole world, excluding few of the princi-
pal countries. Since last year there has
been material increase in the vessels in the
coasting trade, and there is good reason for
anticipating further increase during the
next year.
