There is no doubt that the south is
beginning to feel more independent of
the democratic party, and less fearful
of the republican. The repeal of all
the Federal election laws was re-
garded in many southern states as q
new declaration of independence. AT
any rate, southern business men no
longer have that reverence for the
democratic party which was notice
able for the past quarter of century,
They no longer look upon the Nation
al democratic party as the guardian
and protector of southern rights and
interests. The business men Of the
south are about convinced that the
northern republicans are about tired
of the negro, and very much inclined
to leave him shift for himself. The
business men of the south look upon
New York as an immense clearing
house for the country. and the views
and opinions of New York business
men dominate to an enormous extent
the commercial classes of the south.
1t is argued, too, that when the south
needed friends in congress, or in the
convention New DIRK was always re-
liable ally, whilst the west was fire.

This is the way that southern men
explain the present situation and pre-
sent tendencies. Men whom your
correspondent has known for years as
enthusiastic, aggressive democrats are

threatening absolute secession, IL the
free coinage sentiment prevails in the

new light; to be convinced of the error
Of their ways, and that they intend to

insist that they are in favor Of free

Secretary Carlisle, as the head Of the
administration Is now carfully prepar.
ing speech which he will deliver at
the MemphsiS convention In q few
weeks. In this speech Mr.. Carlisle
voice the policy Of the president and
and the administration. Mr.. Carlisle
will speak with authority. He will lay
before the people the result of hts
judgment, his experience and his fruit
full information. lie will reason the
case with the people and submit facts
and figures that only one whose ex-
perience during the past Two years
could command. 1t is expected that
this speech will be one Of the most
comprehensive Of Secretary Carllsle's
public life, and this is saying a great
deal.
Subsequently, Mr.. Carlisle may make
few speeches in Kentucky, where the
silver agitation is IN full blast. PEG.
pie in authority here are paying a
good deal of attention to the Memphis
convention. 1t is believed that it will
be gathering of far.Teaching impOr-
lance. The understanding here is
that the business men Of the South
the bankers, merchants, manufastur-
ers. planters-whO are opposed to the
theories of extreme silver men, are to
meet IN Memphis to serve notice on
the democratic politicians Of the South
that II they embrace the theories OF
the radical silver men, the business
element of the South will not acqul-
esce, but, on the contrary, secede from
the democratic party.
For years the southern democracy
voiced the opinions of the c0urthOuses
Now the business men insist that the
southern democracy, must to a certain
extent, reflect the opinions of the
counting houses. The conservative
south seems inclined to view with
alarm the tendency towards an ALI
ance between the southern democracy
and the radical elements of the west.
The Memphis convention accord
ing to reports received here, will have
Representatives at all the states of the
south, and these representatives, ac-
cording to the understanding here, will
serve notice on the democratic leaders
of the south that if an alliance with
the extreme silver men is contem
plated, there will be q parting of the
ways" as Senator West would say, or
rupture in the ties that have bound
the conservative South so long to the
| democratic party.

The French do not intend to be left
behind in the struggle for commercial
advantages in China il they can help it,
Some time ago the Lyons Chamber Of
Commerce. with the fun approval of
the government, resolved to send
special commission to China in order to
ascertain the best method OF establish
ing business relations between France
and the Chinese empire. The commits
sion has been organized and is about to
start. The ministry of foreign affairs
and the ministry of commerce have CIV
en- special privileges to the party. which
will have an official status, and be
under the direction and control of
French official who has spent several
years in China. and is known to be APP
preciated by the Chinese authorities.
The government will also appoint a
physician to attend the commissioners,
The working members are young men
who have passed with credit through
the higher commercial schools, and
have gained some practical experience
in what the Temps calls the politics of
commerce. The commission will pro-
coed up the Yang-tse-Kia to Tshung
King, where it will establish headquart-
ers, and send out detachments to ex-
plore the neighboring provinces. The
Lyons chamber of commerce mas pro-
vided funds to support the mission for
two years, and has sent circular to
all the other, principal chambers Of
commerce. inviting cooperation. 1t Is
probable that the expedition has quite
as much political as commercial sig
nificance.

A NOy,EL ROAD III EQRY.

The new Highway commission of
Connecticut will be Interested in the re-
ports Of several committees, appointed
by the department Of agriculture to
examine the subject of making country
roads, which have been submitted to
Secretary Morton. That branch Of the
work which involved the farmers roads
was intrusted to General Royston, who
has made very thorough examina-
tion into the requirements Of the Amer
lean farmer as far as good roads are
concerned. General Royston reports
that the farmer needs ga solid well-bed-
ded stone road so narrow as to be only
single track, but having an earth
track alongside This idea Is rather
new and is based on the fact that where
the ground is dry and in good condition
the dirt road is as near perfection as
any well made road can be. 1t is easy
for the horse, is noiseless and Is readily
and cheaply maintained. On the other
hand it is, in some seasons of the year,
almost the worst road that can be imag..
ined. General Royston's plan proposes
a road Of ordinary width, one-half of
which shall be of stone, which can be
used in seasons when the dirt road is
at its worst, and the other natural-soil
track, which can be used when in its
best condition. In this way the expense
Of building and maintaining the high
way will be reduced about one-half,
and track perfect at all seasons of the
year will be provided for the farmer.
If this idea is adopted the question of
cost Is greatly sinnplified. There are
very many sections Of the country
now suffering from bad roads where
stone or gravel can be obtained at a
small cost for a single-track road say
eight feet wide. But 1t is not easy to
see how General Royston's theory will
work well in practice.
