MIR. HARRISON does not regard surplus
in the Treasury as blessing in disguise,
but thinks the beat way to reduce it is by
giving pensions to everybody who was in
The federal army during the civil war. All
so expended would 90 to the North, though
the South would be taxed to pay its full
portion. Mr. Harrison is evidently not a
believer in the unfailing rule that circum'
stances alter Cos es.

THE POLICY OF Mr.. Harrison's admins
t,stion. as announced in his inaugural adj
d,4s.. vii be to increase and perpeuste the
tariff. to reduce the surplus OF revenue by
increasing pensions, to secure If ee vote
and fair count" in the South, ard TO ex'
tend and moke mere stringent the opera
ticn Of the civil service law. Such policy
nav strengthen bis administration in the
North, but hat it will not have that elect
in the South goes without Saying. The
tariff, while not increasing either the de
mand for or The price of labor, does increase
the cost of living, and is particularly hard
upon the Southern farmer; the South is
compelled to pay her full share OF the pen
sion money, Of which she does not get back
a cent; the free vote and fair count" is
Only another way of expressing the rule OF
a negro majority, and the civil service law
means the creation of privileged class
None Of these measures can be popular in
the South, and some of them can hardly
be even In the North.

WITH ALL MIR. Harrison asntecedents ana

be were living 10 Southern community'and
would not prefer bayouet rule to thai OF the
negro majority in that community he wou'u
be totally unlike every intelligent ana re-

tied in the South. He may talk as much Us
il plepses him about the privileges ana
r phts of fair msj )rities. but white men, no
matter whether they live in the North or the
South. will not be dominated by negroes
Mr. Harrison knows full well that the white
men of his own city, if the Chinese had q
majority there, would not submit TO that
majority, hut he cen not understand why
the white man of the South should object to
the rule of the majority of a race inferior
even to the Monaghan. The sooner MIR.
Harrison realizes the existence OF patent

nature to the extent of learning that oioou

has nut asunder man can not join together
the better it will be fer his administration.

MIR CLHvELANDs veto of the bill to re
turn the money collected during and soon
after the war upder the direct land tax law,
to the people who paid it, and the refusal OF
the democratic House of Representatives to
pass the bill to pay the French spoliaton
claims awarded by the Court of Claims, are
not conducive to the spread OF democracy
among the many people in this section OF
Virginia who were interested in both those
bills. And, what's more, if both those bills
had become laws they would not have ad
ded one vote to the republican, nor taken
one from the democratic party, in any OF
the States of tho country. From now on
ward the prayer of the democrats should be
that their leaders may get understanding.

attention is called to the fact that Pref

contracted on the day he was inaugurated.
The weather was March weather, similar to
this, aud General Harrison took of his hat

that on the 18th OF every November preceding

every President naugurated on Monday has
died in office, and that on every inaugural Mon
dag it has rained, and also that Mr.. Harrison S
grandfather had two ex Cabinet officers in his
Cabinet, and the grandson will have similar
number. These are all authenticated facts of his

ARTIST wAKE-REDoUBT AT FORT GEMAIzEH.
THE enemy keep up shell fire upon the
forts at night and a rifle fire during the day.
One night six shells fell inside the fort and
four men were killed by the bursting of one
of them. In the day many bullets whizz over
our heads, but very rarely is any one hurt.
Whenever a rebel shows himself, crack go
dozen rihes-it is just like rabbit shooting.
At night the Arabs come within forty yards
of the forts, shouting out their war cries and
yelling like demons. 1t is SO dark you cannot
see them, but if they fire the soldiers fire at
the fash. If any are killed their bodies are
carried of the rebels being very particular
about this"
The word 'rebel" shows the English view
of the war: The Arabs under FL Mahdi 1.-The
Prophetl are assumed to be in rebellion
against the Egyptian government, which Is
supposed to own the eastern part of the
great Soudan. Since the above letter was
written the combined British and Egyp-
tian army have captured the rebel forces,
with heavy loss, and now the question
debated in English government circles is,
whether they shall at present merely hold
Suakim and negotiate, or penetrate the
Soudan and attempt to completely crush the
Arab confederacy The issue is compli-
/
sion of the African slave trade. the
rescue of Stanley and Emin Bey, the
founding and maintenance of the Congo Free
State the UNFOLDING of British prestige III
Egypt and the Mohammedan world gener-
ally and the maintenance of free route to
India, that it is just now pulling question
for both administration and opposition in
London.
Geographically, Soudan or Nigrtia, is that
belt of Africa some eight or ten degrees wide,
extending along the southern border Of the
Great Desert from near the west coast to
near the Red sea; and that part of it which
is considered a province Of Egypt includes
/ Nubia and the adjacent provinces Within
the last century the Arabs have combined
with the ruling classes of negroes and estab-
lished independent governments all along the
northern border of the Soudan; civilization
has made great progress, and now the Arab
rulers desire to excite race and religious
hatred, to exclude all British influence and
! Egyptian rule and control all Africa south Of
Egypt and the desert. They also insist on
maintaining the slave trade, against which
the civilized world is now united. 1t is a
peculiar war, war of races, classes and re-
ligions, one which Americans cannot under
stand without considerable study of its spe-
cial features
