NOT sAMBo's PEER.

The Boston Herald seems to find un limited surprise in the facts contained in the following paragraph, which it pub lished editorially:
 "That is a queer state of things down in Louisiana where a colored murderer, condemned to be hanged, has secured stay of proceedings from the highest court on the ground that no negro Is by law allowed to serve on the jury in New Orleans, and as there was a negro on the jury that convicted him it is held that he did not have trial by jury of his peers It is a remarkable state of things when a negro juryman is held not to be the peer of a negro murderer.
 To resident Southerners there is noth- ing new in the assertion made. One Of the principal traits of Sambo's character is his contempt for his own race. The negro is not self-respecting, he never was, and it is fairly safe to say that some centuries will elapse before he will be. Nothing can approach in emphasis the contempt with which he throws the word 'nigger' at his dusky brother. Officially he may be a colored man or darkey but when he is thrown with his own kind he is a nigger and so is his companion.
 It is a well accepted fact that the ne- gro has no respect for white man who will not order him. Kindness he takes to readily but to hold his obedience and his respect he must feel the curb even with the slackening of the pressure. It is also a matter of remark that negro miners if free invariably refuse to have one of their own race placed over them in au- thority and if convicts proceed to make trouble at the earliest opportunity. They must feel the superiority of him who commands them, and to them negro IS a nigger, no better than themselves, and they will have none of him.

Case for Political Capital.

The republican papers seem inclined to pursue Miss Flagler with gratuitous venom because she accidentally and unin- tentionally killed a negro boy who was stealing from her fathers premises the other day The boy who was killed was 15 years old, and was fully aware of what he was doing. Moreover he jeered at the young lady when he was ordered off, and showed that he was not entirely innocent. Boys of his age who defiantly rob may expect to meet with serious ac- cidents some time and while of course death ought not to be administered for such an offense, everything goes to show. that Miss Flagler's act was entirely un- intentional. Her grief and physical prostration are all the evidence needed in addition to her word to show how lit tie she had calculated upon doing any thing but frighten away the young thieves. It is only the man endowed by nature with the towards instinct who would insinuate that her act was any thing but an accident.-Nashville Amer ican.

AN ENCOURAGING SIGN.

Lately the editorial and news columns of the Age-Herald have been full of men, tion of the small industries which are springing up throughout the State.
 There is scarcely a town of any pre- tensions which has not one or more en- terprises on foot, most of which are practicable and can be set going with a small outlay of capital
 It is true that many of these projects are still in the embryo stage of discus sion. But this of itself Is hopeful sign. It indicates that the people of Alabama are awakening to the varied resources of their grand State; it is proof, more- over, that they have passed the day Of despisng small things and are begin ming to realize that in a multitude of minor industries there is growth and prosperity.
 We are great in iron and cotton. But our fields and forests abound in other material which can be worked up at substantial profit and which has hith- erto gone to waste. It has taken us long time to appreciate this fact. Now let us follow it up for all there is in 1t.

OVER IN TENNESSEE.

After nine consecutive terms in the House of Representatives the Hon. Ben ton McMillin of Tennessee's Fifth dis" trict announces flatly that he will not be a candidate for reelection, although he gives no reason. There are those who assert that his eyes turn towards the chair of chief executive of his State, but the announcement is not official. Should McMillin desire this office there is little doubt of his election, as, since hls eiec- ton to Congress at the age of S2, there has been but one convention held by the Democrats of his district and no oppos- ing candidate, no one caring to invite sure defeat by standing up against Mc- MiIlin, the inevitable. He is spoken or as an efficient servant of the people, ana now that he is nearing the fiftieth mile stone. he steps out of the way Of sure success. merely saying he wishes to get out of public life. As is usual ms friends are looking for his motive, ana it may be as they say, that he will give Governor Turney something to do II a the end of his term the latter wishes to renew his subscription.

ARTISTIC JEALOUSY.

The jealousies of those engaged in the entertaining arts, singers musicians and actors have always amused and have sometimes affronted the public, upon whom the artists depend. Such jeal- ousies are by no means modern; in the realm of the theater they have always been disturbing.
 Garrick and Quin, though their abili- ties were eminently different, were en- vious of each other, and Garrick's great aptitudes, which were broader even than his vocation's demands, hardly served to hide his intense egotism, althouSn oh the death of Quin he wrote teehhs tribute to that actors worth.
 Kemble Forte and Kean were also jealous of their contemporaries, ana Junius Brutus Booth was forced 10 nnu in this country a field for his great apll- ities on account of Kemble and the power of the latters faction in Lonaoii, ai though Booths genius transcended that of any actor of his age. The rivalry of Forrest and Macready was the most tragic on record.
 The recent artistic duel in London of the two greatest actresses of thelr time. Duse and Bernhardt, brings new prooI that the highest type of stage genus does not in all cases rise superior 10 the weakness of self-estimatlon.
 Jealousy is a more marked eharacter- istic of lesser than of the greater art ists. The lesser artist is naturally per haps jealous, not only of those In ms so, or her class, but also of all that excel. The greater artist, if moved by Jealousys seeks mark nearer self.
 There are artists whose work ans9- lutely disarms jealousy and commands unaualified approval, if it does not in- spire wonder in those who follow the same art. In this country there IS one actress at least who seems never to nave animated any of her sisters Of the stage with any feeling but one of admiration. That actress is Minnie Madern F1sKe, whose audiences on the rare occasions she has publicly appeared since her re tirement have numbered members or the profession by scores, and whose return to the stage next season is hailed by players as it is by the public.
 Mre Fisle's characteristics as woman have something to do with her general popularity with her profession, but they simply supplement the uniaue quality of her genius as an actress anu anu her ability to reveal to the experts who wno watch her work new light Tn theu adopted profession.

Delightful Summer Trip to the East.

On account of the Triennial Conelave of Knights Templars at Boston, Mass, August 26 to 30, various railroad com panies have generously offered the Knights Templar and the public an ex- ceedingly low rate of one fare for the round trip. The straight one fare round trip rate requires that passengers shall ga and return over the same route, while by the payment of a small difference a va riable route may be obtained. That is, going one way and returning another. A great many very desirable side trips may be taken advantage of at very small cost
 This is undoubtedly the best opportuni- ty ever offered to the people of the south to visit all points of interest in the north and east at a nominal cost. Among the most interesting places that can be visit ed are Niagara Falls, Thousand Isles, Rapids of the St. Lawrence river, White mountains. Chautauqua, Saratoga and other famous watering places of the east
 It has been decided to put tickets on sale in Birmingham August IS. continu- ing until August 25. Tickets will be of sufficient duration to allow all arties time enough to visit the places mentioned
 MT. Joe Frank of this city has made arrangements with the Louisville and Nashville railroad and it's connecting lines to carry a special party on this oc- casion, and he will be glad to answer all questions pertaining to rate, sleeping car accommodat tions, etc.
 At this season of the year, a trip via Cincinnati is particularly interesting, ow- ing to the climate and the diversity of the country traversed..
 For any other information call on Mr. Frank at his office, or call on or write R. F. Beasly, passenger agent Louisville and Nashville railroad.

Is This TrueP Tote Sorare.

At small railway station in the hilly part of Alabama an old man, carrying a carpet bag and accompanied by his wife, boarded train, says an exchange. They took the first seat, the old lady next to the window. It was apparent that this was their first railway journey. The train started and they both looked eager ly from tho window, and as the speed ir- creased, look of keenest anxiety gath. cred on the old ladys face. She grasped her husbands arm and said in a voice plainly audible above the roar to those about her: "Joel, we be goin awful quick. I know 'taint safe" A few min utea later the train ran on to a long tres tie. With a little shriek of terror the old lady sprang to her feet and seized the back of the seat in front of her. There she stood, trembling from head to foot, staring from the window. Meantime the train sped onward and was once more on solid earth. The old lady was quick to note the change. Her features relaxed and she sank into her seat with the fer vent exclamation: Thank goodness, she's hit again!"-Savannah News.

SHAME KILLED HIM.
An Exemplary Young Man Dies. When He Is
 Found Out,

Cleveland, O., Aug. 12.-It was discov- cred early yesterday morning that George Loehner, bookkeeper at the work house, was short in his accounts to the extent of $6O0O. Last night he died as a result of the shock.
 A warrant was issued shortly after the shortage was discovered. Loehner had lived an exemplary life and had been re- garded as a model young man. The news of the dedication was a great surprise. Mayor McKisson had an interview with him during the afternoon, with the re- suit that Loehner refunded a great DOT ton of the money. Loehner was taken to the county jail about o'clock, very much depressed in spirits and evidently suffer- ing acutely. He rapidly showed alarm ing symptoms of illness and physicians were summoned. It became apparent that he was dying from the shock caused by the discovery of his, peculations and his arrest. Every effort was made to rally his vital forces, but at o'clock he died. Physicians pronounced his death to be directly due to the shock.

very poorest. Here. too, we saw the much discussed picture by J. s. Sargent "Carnation, Lily Rose" It is wonder full to see so many parks and such spa< ciousness in so closely built a city as arc to be found in London. As a rule, they are not we'll kept. They seem to be en- tirely for the pleasure of the populace, and there are no monotonOus signs to Keep Off the Grass The prettiest and most picturesque park, however, IS St. James park, just in front Of Buck ingham palace. On one side of the park is St. James palace. an irregular brick building erected by Henry VIII and de- signed by Holbein. Here Queen Mary died in 15S8, and Charles 1 slept here the night before his execution and walked across St. James park to Whitehall next
 morning. There we saw the window where he stepped out to be executed.
 In Friary court, in front of St. James palace, the guard is changed every morn ing, and the fine bands of the Grenadier or Scots Guards play. We saw the per formances, though there were very few, as parliament was not in session. The Scottish soldiers amused our girls very much, and they are fine looking, too.
 Then we walked down the Mall, a broad avenue planted with rows of hand some trees, so called from the game or 'paille maille" once played there. Buck ingham palace is right nice, commodi- .ous residence, considering the queen does not care to occupy it, and prefers staying at "Windsor' all the time. Well! l al most forgot to tell you we had an invita- ton to Mrs. Bayard's 'at home" which we enjoyed very much. Mrs. Bayard is gracious and womanly, and although everything was extremely elegant, it was also unusually simple and without any ostentation. Mrs. Bayard received her guests with so much dignity and grace, while MT. Bayard was present also and conversed pleasantly with friends-and we felt sure that MT. Cleve- land had chosen rightly when he placed Ambassador Bayard and Mrs. Bayard to sustain our national dignity in the midst of royalty. PAUL PRY.
