SOUTHERN LYNCH LAW,

AtrUcious crimes, such as gen
orally provoke an appeal to lynch
law, certainly demand and deserve
speedy and fitting punishment.
The death penalty is none too
severe in cases of rape, or arson,
where human life has been en-.
dangered. But the power to try
and punish is vested solely in the
courts of justice. Lynch law is no
law. Human life can be taken
legally only by proper procedure of
tine law. The very essence of free
government is that every man,
white or black, no matter what
the crime with which he may be
charged, is entitled to u fair and
impartial trial by jury. The killing
Of a human being under any other
circumstances, except in selfde-
fense, is murder. Is it not high
time that the hoarse cry OF the mob:
Lynch him! "Hang him!' '.Burn
himl" should cease throughout the
country. Let the people rise not as
II mob, but in their cool, determin-
ed might, aud throttle the wolf of
violence that bares its fangs in the
very temples of Justice. Will the
great and growing new south bear
this stigma longerl Have the
southerners no confidence in their
courtsi Do they desire to send lynch
law down to their children's
children as a worthy herltage1 If
not say to all public officers en-
force the law; all lynchers shall be
punished. And it will be done.

TeNNYsoN AND WOMEN.
Some Quotations That Show His Opinion
ofone Half Of Creation.

Lord Tennyson, who, many peo.
pie think, was scarcely less
philosopher whose opinions are
authoritative than a poet whose
words are a delight, said in the
course of his career many things
about women. If he had been
merely poet the fact would not
have been SO important, for poets
are forced to say "whatever suits
the rhyme," but as he was a
thinker also, it is interesting to see
how he interpl cts the puzzling
half Of creation.
One thing that be insists upon
is the indissoluble bond between
them and men.
The woman's cause is mans
they lise or sink together, dwarfed
or godlike, bond or free; if she be
small, slight natured, miserable,
how shall nau grow :"
That places uuite a burden of
responsibility upon IA woman, but
elsewhere he remarks:
''AS the husband is, the wife is,n
which again places the burden on
the masculine shoulders. Probably
the poet meant to divide it.
About The esteem in which she
should he held, he speaks in no
uncertain manner:
"Who does not honor his wife,
dishonors himself,n and "the low
man thinks the woman low"
Somewhat equivocal is this:
''It is hard to wive and thrive in
a year"
Which probably merely means
that so much good fortune does not
befall a man in so short a time.
His various heroines were all a
little above the ordinary.
"IIer eyes are homes of silent
prayer"
"Eyes not iown-dropped nor
overnight, but fed with the clear
pointed flame of chastity"
''By common clay, taken from
the common earth, nodded by God
and tempered by the tears OF
angels to the perfect form oi
woman."
"Pure vestal thoughts in the
translucent fame of her shill spirit. "
II Apply he with such motherl
Faith iii womankind beats with
his blood, and trust in all things
high comes easy to him, and though
he trip and fall he shall not blind
his soul with clay"
"She stood sign to make an old
man young"
SO much aud much more did be
say of women. And they in graft
tude may well apply to him other
lines of his.

was WE'LL" and s'He crowned !

COTTON AND PEANUT CULTURE IN
VIRGINIA.

A census bulletin just issued
shows that in Virginia the total
area devoted to the cultivation Of
cotton in 1SS9-'9O was 1928
acres, ami the production of cot
Ton 1915 bales as compared with
a cultivated area of 45,040 acres
and a production of 29,59j bales
in 1S79-'S0,
There was, therefore, DECREASE
of 6,S27 acres, or 1884 per cent in
the area cultivated, aud of Ia, 4,220
bales, or 72,57 per cent, in the
number Of bales produced, the
yield in 1779t7O being at the rate
Of 0. A of bale to the acre, or 2.3U
acres to the bale, and in 1S49-90 at
the rate Of OLA of bale to the
aare, or 730 acres to the bale.
The county having the largest
acreage in cotton ia lSS9-'g0 was
Brunswick, which also had the
largest production.
Many of the counties in this
State which formerly produced
cotton, in view of the low price Of
that staple, now devote the atten-
ton and land which they formerly
gave to it to the cultivation OF
peanuts and other crops-small
crops, we were about to say, but
the peanut crop OF Virginia is not
a small one. AS a ''money pro-
ducerv it is one of the best of our
crops. though we are sorry to learn
that the profits are by no means
what they once were.
The Census Bureau Of course has
no account of the cultivation OF
cotton in Virginia from 1861 to
1860, but the figures for that
period would be interesting were
they obtainable. The Federal
blockade of our ports and the
picket lines with which they encir-
cled us on other sides threw Var
glnia and the other Stites of the
Confedaracy upon their own re-
sources during the period Inentioa-
ed, aud the result was that hand
looms, discarded for halt a cen
tury, came into use again. To
supply these nearly every farmer
had his cotton patch. In this way
Virginia became ga cotton State, =

Wayne Mlcveagh's able and
eloquent speech in Philadelphia is
likely to give Sherman a good
deal TO think about. The orator paid
much attention to tue Senator's
recent utterances, and gave him a
very bad quarter of an hour, as
the French say. He also took up
those whom he calls the cOrrup-
tionists in the Republican party,
and gave them a severe overhaul
ing. Mr.. MacVeagh says that he
left the Republican ranks because
he could no longer endure the
spectacle of the financial corrup-
tion which enters into election
campaigns. Mr.. Quay will hardly

made to him and his election tao

ly. Third, the law does not forbid
the placing of the names of the
electoral nominees of each party
together-lt leaves the matter of
arrangement discretionary with
the commissioner.
The CLARION would suggest that
speakers and papers explain the
common facts of the preparation
and form of the tickets and the
voting before the coming election.
In the first place voters should be
given TO understand that the
names of the Presidential nominees
will not appear on the tickets at
all. And that they will have to
tamilidrize themselves with the
names of the electors; through
whom their votes will be cast for
President and Vice President. OF
course it will occur to the party
committees of every county to
supply this knowledge-to have
cards printed bearing the names
OF party nominees, to be distribnt-
ed to every voter for reminder aud
governace. But to take all pre-
cautions, the further suggestion is
repeated that the speakers and
the papers Of the State bestow
especial regard on imparting the
details of the manner of voting
from now until the elec ion. Ii
would be well for the papers to
run the names Of tue electors in
ticket form-after the following
general arrangement:
