MOBILE, Ala July l2.-The

Thomas and the first impression

were the murderers. After com

Out here the wet weather which

UsURPATIoN of any kind is distaste-
full to the American people; but, in the
hurry and hustle of the life we live,
and the eagerness with which every
man pursues his particular bubble,
little time is left for reflection about
that which does not Immediately con-
Germ us. We have no time to devote
to remote consequences. In this way
Nations run upon the breakers that
make shipwreck of liberty. 1t is not
that the people of this country love
liberty less than their forefathers did,
but the long enjoyment of it has rem
dered them careless of its blessings.
Liberty's value, like the value of a
friend, receives its just appreciation
only after its loss. Had the positions
recently taken by the United States
Courts been taken a half century after
the Revolution, a storm would have
been created which would have led to
the placing of restrictions on their
power that could not have been safely
disregarded by United States Judges.
Governor Stone is the first to raise the
cry of alarm at their monstrous usur-
patton of power. They have arrogated
to themselves the power to tax the peo-
pie of this State in violation of its con-
stitution, and have imprisoned the of
ficials of a county for refusing to obey
the mandate of United States Judge,
to levy a tax to pay bonds issued by
county on behalf of a railroad of which
there never has been a mile in exist
ence. and the payment of which the
of the State absolutely
prohibits. A United States Court
has morally just as much right, under
the time-honored and democratic rule
that State law governs the citizen, to im-
prison the editor of this paper for this
article, as it has to imprison the County
Judges of St. Clair county for refusing
to levy a tax to pay fraudulent bonds
obtained by false pre:enses. The Re
public is right. There should be no
in this matter: usurpation
should be resisted TO the death.

THE day of deliverance for the agri.
culturist of the Mississippi Valley is
not far off when the plutocracy of the
Northeast begin to look about for
means to remedy his condition. Their
great statistician, Atkinson, removes
his Indebtedness by some of '.the
blamedest tallest ciperin'" ever wit
messed on this continent. Their fnan-
cial writer, Marshall, comforts him
with the assurance that all business is
a game of chance and that if the game
has gone against him, SO far, he may
expect better luck next deal, which he
no doubt will have if he can get rid of
the cold deck up his opponents sleeve.
Aud now comes their newspaper, the
New York San, whose editor Probably
knowns a blackberry patch from a
clover field, and could, if called upon,
readily distinguish sweet potato from
a squash, with valuable advice as to
the manner he should conduct his bus
mess. Uncle Dana tells him that a
half or quarter section is too much
land for him; that FIVE acres, the size
of a japanese farm, is about the mark.
No doubt, if the Valley agriculturist
be not a pig-headed and perverse var
let, he will paste Uncle Dana's advice
in his hat and carefully read it, night
and morning. He may, after he has
become thoroughly saturated with the
wisdom therein contained, give to the
bonanza farmer his surplus land, limit
himself to his FIVE acres and live on
rice and rats for the rest of his life.
This would undoubtedly free him from
his financial embarrassment and cause
him to erect a statue to the New York
San.
