f* pr" A Juror Challenged Becauso a Confederate. The animus of this Corhin proeoeutoiu of Iiis political opponents in the Kllentou riots, was manifested yesterday in his challenging .Major llutsou Leo as a juryman, on the ground that he was in the Confederate army. We Intvo seen different cjuris of the United States, sitting in the South, and have noted tlio organization of the juries, but we have not observed the challenge of juryuicn on such a pretext before.? There are some men with whom the war will never be over?to whom peace would be a midfortune. 3U|c warfare of peace, co-called,carried on through the halls of legislation and tlio courts ^r i u i 1 I rc??J i .. oi iutvf uiivncu ujr uuii'.crs imu soiuiers, IS lllt'ir hearts desire?a warfare still rife and attractive. Spoils and honors are sought with less risk and more comfort tosuoli warriors against u defeated and down-trodden peoplo. The rooted sentiinont r of tbe^r aspiring souls is tus vied* I It seems that while the war was going on, Juno 17, 1802, an act was passed in Washington (linking it n cause of disqualification nnd challenge in the courts of the United States for grand and petit jurors to have adhered to the Confederate cause, or have given aid and comfort, directly or indirectly, to any engaged in it. And this act, adopted during active hostilities, is now trumped up to preclude men of the South from Sorviug on juries in a United States Court twelve -years after the cessation of the war, when everybody has been accorded amnesty nnd disabilities have otherwise beep all removed. As a matter of curiosity as well as profound indignation, \vc produce from the Revised Statutes the passage on which Major Leo was yesterday deemed disqualified to serve: "Sec. 820. The following shall be causes of disqualification and challenge of grand and petit jurors in tlio courts of the United Slates : Without duress or coercion to hnve taken up arms or to have joined in any insurrection or rebellion, giving it aid nnd comfort; to have given, directly or indirectly, nuy assistance in money, arms, -?clSthes, or anything whatever, to or for tho use or benefit of any person whom the givor of such assistance knew to have joined, or to be about to join, nny insurrection or rchollion, or to liavo resisted, or to be about to resist, with force of arms, the execution of t ie laws of the United States ; or to linvc counseled or advised any person ta join any insurrection or rebellion, or to resist with force of arms the lnws of the United States." "Sec. 821. At every term of any Court of tho United States, the District Attorney, or ottier person acting on behalf of the United States in said Court, in their discretion, may require the Clerk to tender to every person summoned to serve as a petit juror, or venireman or talesman in said Court, the following oath oratfirma^ tion, etc. : That you have not, without duress *?hud constraint taken tip arms, etc."?Journal of Commerce. ?? Why Farmimo Dukh Not Pay.?Tho reason why so ninny men fail to make farming a success is simply because they fail to make it a business. They at once conclude that farming doesn't pay, and then ge to work in such a way as to utterly exclude the possibility of its ever paying, '.s a rule, tho successful merchant follows no other pursuit but that of his trade.? The lawyer or physician who attains to eminence in his profession devotes his time, energies and talent to that profession. Not only docs this theory hold true of all other branches of business, hut it holifctrue of farming. The successful farmer docs nothing for a livelihood but farm. If lie has money to invest ha should invest it to improve his farm. He should inform llimanlf no A Kio Imainaaa >"'! - intelligent manner. Upon such farms weeds do not stand as high as a man's head; nor are fen-* ces neglected, buildings dila] idalod, farming implements left exposed to the weather, and stock uuslieltercd and uncared for, but everything denotes thrift and enterprise. It is really painful at we go around the couutry and observe the number of neglecte 1 farms. Pigs, geese and cattle nro allowed almost unlimited range.? Weeds render the door yard, the orchard and meadows unsightly. The good wife, in addition to her household cares, must milk the cows, feed * the pigs, and do the chores generally. Hut *'"wliero is the owner? Where and how does he spend his time? lie is across the way, hanging on his neighbor's fence, talking politics; or is in the nearest store or blacksmith shop talking gossip. Perhaps lie is inspired with a desire to make sonic money and is out huckstering, or, what is less laudable, soiling a patent right that may bo useful or not, just as it happens; hut while he is earning a few dollars away from home, many dollars arc being lost at home, because it is time to do spring planting, summer harvesting, or fall sowing. Thus the years are passed, and sympathizing ouos remark, "he is n clever man, but somehow don't get nlong in the world;" and all because he owns a farm, has a business, and yet fails to attend to it.? Cincinnati Orange Bulletin. A IIomr Papkk.?An exchange says, we like to see a man refuse to take his iocal paper, and all the timo spongo on his neighbor the reading of it. We like to bear a man complain when we ask him to subscribe for his home paper, that he takes more papers than he reads now, and then go around and borrow his neighbor's or loaf about him until he gets the news from It. We like to see a inan run down his liotne paper as not worth taking, and every now and then beg the editor for a favor in the editorial line. We like to see a merchant refhse to advertise in'a home paper, nnd then try to get a share of trade which papers bring to town. But, above all things, we like to sec a rich, miserly man, who cannot pny for his local paper.always manage to ho around in time to read the paper, at the expense of a friend not worth the tenth part of Hihat lie himself is. It looks bo economical, thrifty and progressive, you know. ? Educational Facilitiks.?We aro glad to see that our Legislature is moving to have a thoroughly digested scheme forthe higher education of the youth of the State. This is a subject of great interest among the colored people, as well as the white, and they are watching anxiously to soc what we will do in fulfillment of tho promises held out during the political campaign of last summer. It is for us to show that we do not intend to have tho funds for education pocketed as perquisites by official thieves, and mean to secure every practicable advantage to those who can use the opportunities. Permanent and well organised institutions are needed and will we trust he instituted next winter.? Journal of Commerce. Wiit They Auk Brushing Ui? (linnaltar.? * The present strengthening of Gibraltar means that England does not intend to be "caught napping," and that the government does not know how soon this matchless citadel may be needed as a base of active operations in the Meditcrra jiean and the further east. Louis XIV threatened to turn the tidelcss sea into "a French lake;" Alexander, if he had the opportunity, would gladly make it a Russian lake; but as long jis England holds Gihralter?the key of the Western door?tho Mediterranean is. to all intents and purposes, an English l&ko. And Rugland will keep that key while she has a man and a musket to defend it. snupkn dkatii.?Colonel J. H. Vandike was found dead in the road near Crawfordsvillc, one mile and a half from, his residence, on Sunday Inst about twelve o'clock. He had been that morning visaing Mr* ^urb>flll at tho residence ^of Mrs. B1 rings, a*d left there appsrenUjaJn good health about eleven o'olook db horMbSlr#] riding in the direction of CrawtbrdrUle. Dri A.J.

Spartanburg IftraUl. A citizen of Ashoville, N. (?., who made the acquaintance of np Arkansas soldier during the war, has received a letter dated Monticello, May 6th. In speaking'of tho death of his wife lie [ says : "She was born at Meridian. Miss., and a 1 better woman never was called on to pass in hor chocks. In (lie gatno of life site always held n tinsli of hearts, and when death trumped her best card with his spade, she threw Iter hand <P the deck without a murmur-" IWoodiiull axu Olaclin out of Funds.?Tl Now York Timet states that Mrs. TeniaeC. Cln lin 11us presented a claim against Commotio! Vninlcrbilt's estate for an indefinite niiiouu stilled at over $100,"00, or $70,000 anil cor pound interest. A paper was served on Mr. V II Vandcrltilt on Saturday before hisdepnrlui for Kurope by Miss Clntlin's attorney, whit states that in tlie full of 1871 she culled on Con uiodoro Vauderbilt and gave liiin $10,000 i operate with in New York Central anil llndsc Hirer stocks, anil that in 1873 the Couimodoi informed her that the original sum and itsacci inulntious amounted to$70,000.

He refused to give t.iei any, saying that fhey were in such circumstai ecu that he diil not believe they would use it jt diciously. Having full confidence in his goc intentions and in his superior wisdom ntidjudj meat, they allowed him to retain it. Miss ('In lin, in reply to an interviewer, said: "M Vanderhilt will have to pay eventually. 1 hat too much proof. 1 have over one hundred wi ncsses. Why Commodore Vaudcrbilt hituse testitied before Judge McAdani in 1874 that li had then an o; en account with us. If I was I tell you all I know it would be worse a gret deal than the lloecher cave." "It would inak a splendid seusational article for the newspi pers," said Mrs. Woodhull, "if we gave you tli reasons why Commodore Ynndcrbilt took sue an interest in a paper that expressed the mo: radical of radical views, but our lips are scaled. Mr. Vanderbilt, on being questioned in rcgar to the suit on board the Britannia ou Saturdn afternoon, suiil, "Oh, that is ridiculous.

The Singer Machine which loi merly sold for sixty-five dollars, can now b bought for thirty-five dollars, and agents arc in allowed to charge more when the payment i ,mado in cash.
