IMMIGRATION FIGURES.
The belief and hope Of the peo-

The belief and hope Of the peo-
pie, as the Louisville Courier Jour-
nal saya. has been generally, that
because Of cholera abroad and
quarantine at home immigration
for 1892 would be much less than
before. There has been a reduction,
but not very marked.
In fact. for the first six months
of 1892 there was considerable gain;
53,961, against 1876, 3O7 for 1891.
But during the last half of the
year there was a decline of nearly
one>third, and the record for the
whole year was 543, 4s7 in 1892,
against 500. 666 There was a fall
irg off cf about a tenth from the
United Kingdom and Italy, a still
greater one in the case of Russia
from 1917 to 22,267) and Poland
from 31,2S5 to 26,ss9), a slight
gain from Sweden and Norway, a
trifing reduction in the German
contingent, and unimportant
changes in most other countries.
But still this is a mighty tide;
half a million persons within a year
seeking homes in New World.
This movement of population has
a significance which contempora-
ries do not understand; history will
read in it a condition and an in
fuence which we fail to grasp.
Hungry and poverty, social ou-
preston, military service, a longing
for something better; for the new
generation-all these feelings work
together 10 induce men to abandon
home and kindred and do violence
TO inherited instincts and try the
unknown. Motives such as these
affect the multitude now as they
did two and three hundred years
ago.
Bnt other motives moye the
ignorant and the viciona, and SC
the multitude seek, as by one will.

Who Wrote "Dixie?"

We had hoped to be able to pre-
sent tosday all the facts obtainabie
as to who wrote "Dixie," but we
bave not yet been able to secure
the statement of General Long
street, wherein he is said to des
clare that Is was composed and
sung years and years before the
war ty Southern cadets at the West
Point Military Academy. 1t was
but lately that we first heard OF
this claim of authorship. If Gen
eral Longstrcet's recollection is con
frmed By the recollection of others
it would dispose of the other claims
heretofore asserted; but we all
know that memory is at best "a fal-
lible thing.
A decade or more ago the Mag
agine of american History under
took to show that "Dixie" was the
alleged song of a lot of negroes from
the North who were sold into the
! far South in advance of the ap-
preaching wave OF abolition senti"
ment in their old home
Later, statements of several per :
sons were published that "Dixie'
was written in 1859 by Dan EN- :
NETT for BryaDt's Ministries as "a
wax around" The late MIR, G,
L. Sirgel, of Richmond, who was a
musician in that troupe, was one
of those who were firmly of the
opinion that that was the real ORR
gin of the song.
The present discussion was
started by the newspaper publica.
ton that Dan Emmett, "the author
of Dixie" lie DYING in great lov
erty." and proposing that the
Southern people should raise a
fund for his relief.
1t is to be hoped that the friends
Of Mr.. Emmett will not wait until
this question is determined before
going to his aid, If they do he
may die OF hunger meanwhile, as
the authorship of "Dixie" may
possibly remain unsettled alm,s
as long as Was the question "Whc
wrote 'Stonewall Jacks 'u's Way
and All Quiet Along the Potomac
To-night'?"
We are, however, quite ready t,
beiieye that Bryant's m'nstrels, who
played in New Or!can+ and OF lei
Southern cities just before the war
began gave the song a Southern
popularity which caused it to be
taken up in the camps and to be-
come the accepted Confederate
national air.-Richnaond State.

Too Much Fog.

Undismayed by the ta.e Of the
dogstax bill in the State Senate,
Representative Vance, of Bum
combe, came gallently to the front
in the House, Thursday. in sups
port of his bill to encourage sheep
husbandry, which was in the form
OF a compromise. II substantially
provides that each family be entit-
led to have one dog free of tx and
be required to pay tax on all over
one, on males 81, on females 50
We are indebted to Genera
Vance for the Information 8 to the
number of dogs in Ncr'h Carolina.
which he places at 423 900. while
there are 3s1 900 sheep, a M: ,rity
Of As 5000 for the dog. General
Varce proposes to be very LIBERAL
and allow one dog tree of tax to
every family, which or a b ,sis of
FIVE persons to a family Won d
leave about $4,000 subject to taxse
ton,
II the tax, as proposed, were as
eessed and collected upon those it
would put about 100000, in
round figures, into the State Treas
ury tor the benefit of the schools,
or put an end to the extra dog or
dogs.
We incline to the opinipr, how.
ever. that the General rather un>
dereestimates the number Of dogs,
for there are some towns in North
Carolina which seem to have withs
in them and within a rad Us of a
few miles almost that many.
But 423, 900 are enough to an
swer all practical purposes and fur
nish food for reflection while they
go on making food of the hapless
sheep that are not lucky enough to
keep out of their way. The House.
however, is discussing this matter

GUTENBERG WILL CONTEST
The Race Track Men and the Anti.
Winter Racing Bill.

JERSEY CITY, March 14-The. manage
mept of the Hudson County Jockey club
has been doing lot of quiet investigation
since the anti-winter race track bill was
passed. This bill prohibits racing durin-
Tho months of December. January and
February with racing legal in New jersey
except during the months mentioned
Assemblyman Thompson was denounced
by the Gutenberg management 1t was
charged that Thompson was actuatcd by
motives of revenge; that 1t was because
Gutenberg would not pay its share of a
fund used for the passage Of the race bills
The Gutenberg officials now say that
Thompson is not wholly to blame for the
anti;racing bill, and that national politics
figured more in the Legislation than the
public is aware Of. A member of tho
executive committee said:
There is more truth than fiction In tho
published report that President Cleveland
announced that hewould not recognize in
his distribution of federal Offices the men
whovoted for the race track bills
From this source pressure was brought
on Senators Smith and Mcpherson, and
they in turn practically forced Thompson
to introduce the bill prohibiting racing
during the winter months. Briefly, it was
case of having all the bills repealed OF
the three months bill If Thompson had
refused to introduce this bill then the re-
pealers would have been rushed through"
What do you folks intend doingP"
I'VE shall take the laws before the
courts OH a writ of certiorari and have
them tested as to their constitutionality
Our counsel has given it AS his opinion
that the bills are illegal, and we shall fully
test them"

Nj. Bourgeois, late minister of Justice,
took the stand amid murmurs of excite

smphatically repudiated all the insinua-

Cottu. He denied having authorized any
body to act in his behalf, and said he only
permitted Mime. Cottu to see her husband
from motives of humanity. Il never

"of the interview between Nine. Cottu

statement to the effect that he had told
her he would see NJ Bourgeois, but, he
added, nobody authorized me to say so.
NJ, Bourgeois arose and exclaimed: ''It
any one knows that Iacted contrary to the
dictates of honor let him speak"
These words created an uproar In the
audience and Judge Desjardins concluded
that the most effective way to allay the
excitement was to suspend the hearing,
and he gave an order to that effect.
After the close of the hearing Mr..

DISASTROUS MINE EXPLOSION.
Five Workers Fatally Burned In the
Rainbow Colliery at Connellsvills.

CoNNELLsvILLE, Pa, March 14-A seri-
ousRxplosion of fire damp occurred in the
RAINBOW Ccnl and Coke company's Whit
sell coal mines near Perryopolis yesterday.
Ten were injuted, five OF them fatally.
Mine Inspector William Duncan, the hero
OF many mine disasters, is among the most
badly burned. The names Of the other four
men brought here are Edward Harrigan,
William Goidsborough, Oliver Branthoven
end Josiah Rose. All are married and have
families. The cause Of the explosion is yet
mystery. The report was heard for sew
eral miles
Mine Inspector Duncan, with a party Of
the mine officers and workmen, was max
Ing an inspection of the mine. They were
inqniriDg into the cause of the explosion
Two weeks ago in the same mine, but it
seems that some one in the party had an
open light The mine is small one, and
has always been considered free from gas.
When the explosion occurred the men
must all have been in group. They were
all badly burned, but the ones who seem
To have been standing on the outside of the
circle were hurled against the rib of coal.
Of those brought here two have their arms
broken, and Mine Inspector Dur cam ) skull
Is fractured. All injured in the explosion
were rescued soon after the accident hap
pened. None of the injured here are able
to give full account of the explosion.
TheAnine is located in Franklin town
ship, about six miles from the main line of
the Pittsburg, McKeesport and Youghio-
gheny railroad. About two weeks ago
fire damp was ignited in a mine by blast
fired by one of the miners after working
hours. No one was hurt and no further
precautions were taken. Open lights were
In use in the mine. 1t is supposed that gas
has been accommodating in the mine till it
was fired by miner.
