The present Legislature may not hare placed upon the Statute book, at its first session, any law which will ! commend that body to the notice of j posterity, but there is one thing which j it did, which entities it to no little i credit?it killed the proposition for a : constitutional convention. Congress should pass an inler-Slate ! commerce bill during the present ses- j sion if it does nothing else. Experi ence has shown that the railroads u-.u&t j be restrained, and the recent decision j of the Supreme Court of the United j States rendering State legislation on ; the subiect uractically nugatory makes ! :t the imperative duty of Congress to take the matter in hand. The Xew York State Woman'? Suffrage Association has entered its em- ! phatic protest against the execution of Mrs. Druse. The protest is based solely |on the ground that it is cruel and unjust to hold women to full accountability for their actions in violating laws, so long as they are not allowed to have any part in framing those laws. It is urged that they should be treated as adult citizens or as children. Some of the Democratic newspapers are trying to drive Henry Watterson into the Republican party, but the wilylventuckian seems very unwilling to take his place in that fold. He says in substance that he won't support 15Iaine oranyDouy iiKe mm, ana mat i he expects to remain in the old Democratic ship until (just before) she goes down. He writes much better English than the late Senator Logan, and altogether we wculd hate to see him : leave the partv. " m9 ^ f m , ivi; Or re vx is eight \ of age and has entered npon his second sevenyears term as President of the French Republic. Mr. Gladstone is seventyseven and daily looking for Lord Salisbury to break down in order that be may again assume the government of the British Empire. Von Molike is eighty eight ami looking forward to the time when he will have to meet the French again at Sedan. It would seem that the average age of public men in Europe is something higher than in this country, at least the period ig nmkng^. The "Picture of the State," in the Ifeics and Courier of the 1st ins:ant, is perhaps not quite as regular in outline as an ardent lover would wish to see of his mistress, but it is withal a pretty accurate likeness, and it is this feature that will give to it just now a SDeciai interest. Like the mariner, i tossed on an unknown sea, we have occasion first of all to find out exactiy where we are. A new point of departure may then be selected with **J8ore assurance. The needed infortnationVma ^oun^ *u c^is "picture." We ?ot advise anybody !^?ith statistics but the people or tins State can afford to give this paper a very careful consideration, first, because "it is our business," and secondly, because it is neatly and compendiously gotten up, leaving but little room for dispute about the facts among those'who are competent to pass judgment. If Capt.

There is j one other thing too that he should j strive to neglect, and that is his very i homely habit of denouncing farmers, j without distinction, as puppets and i fool?.

But of this we will not make any appraisement. As Capt. Tillman may not appreciate j it, we will simply leave hiai to take it at what he may think it is worth, | knowing as we do, that if he err in j the matter, time will reverse his judg- , ment, just as mercilessly as though , he were the humblest citizen in his , county.

' I^ord^. 0 Mr. Henry Labouchere is probably the most?brilliant living journalist. He is the editor of the London Truth, (?* . a member of Parliament and an unoomprtfinising liepublieau. He is an unrelenting foe of the British aristocracy, and his assaults upon the House of Lords in the-columns of 9ns paper and other periodicals have led less inquiring spirits than his to ask, jTnmliftwI J-i ii fhr> fvirfh tlie American people, schooled in jStliecmaxinis of liberty, it is simply a monstrosity. The unsophisticated genius of pnre Democracy will never comprehend the proposition that one man may be born to the position of a law-maker, may inherit the right to rule his fellows. Mv. Labouchcre may not ISve to witness the reforms which he advocates, but it is clear thai the House of Lords must bring itself into harmony with modern thought by becoming elective, or it must go. A Calamity that Jlay Come. Poverty is a hard master, the truth is illustrated in more ways than one, and it holds good in the lives of nations wpII individuals. 1r co hannons just now that we have in this country a great many poor people. And the truth of our hard situation may be most unpleasantly brought home to us at at any moment. If a European conflict were precipitated at this time, bread and meat, the necessities of life, would at once be placed beyond the reach of probably three-fourths of the people in the South. High price?, no money and no credit, a hard situation indeed. It is rather disagreeable to have to acknowledge the truth that the happi ness of our people, if not more than this, depends at this time upon the possible caprice of some European princeling; that the fruits of our industry for the next twelve months may be turned to ashes by a possible conflict between the "Powers" to determine whether British, Austrian or Russian influence shall predominate in the Principality of Bul^aria^^^ remedy for all this, or rn_tA\ *-riicway to avoid su'-.b a possible calamity, is to prepaid 10 live at home. Until we are to do this, we have a selfish reason for praying that "the peace of Europe may be preserved." The ?Jase of Cluverins. The 14th inst. is, we believe, the day { set apart tor the execution of Cluve rius, the condemned murderer of Fannie Lillian Madison. The evidence which goes to establish lii.s ^uilt is circumstantial entirely; no living witness saw him commit the deed, and under the laws of Virginia even he was an incompetent witness in his own behalf. The strongest circumstance in the chain of evidence against the accusctT WcTsT that in* relation to the watch key which was picked up at the reservoir, in which the girl was drowned. A jeweler testified that he had fixed a key similar to this for the defendant, and described the nature of his work, whieh was inside the key. it wis opened ana the testimony-ot the jeweler verified. This fixed the ownership of the !-:ep upon CluverJus to a dead moral certainly. And this ownership he had strenuously denied. Be lie guilty or innocent of the murder of this i;irl. tolerably certain 'il3 Jii^Tied about" the keyT^TnG'" circumstance of his lying, however, is not altogether inconsistent with his innocence or with the theory urged by the defence that the girl had committed suicide. Humanity, even when innocent. shrinks from criminating circumstances and assuming the innocence of the defendant here, it is not unreasonable that he should have de niea trie Key wncn it controntea mm in connection wiih the corpse, the resorvoir and the evidences of a struggle. It is to be regretted that he was not allowed to testify in his own behalf. The world would be the better satisfied to have heard his story. Shall Women be Vanished Capitally? If the press may be relied 011 lo fairly reflect public opinion, the moral sense of the nation has about answered the question in the negative. True, i some serious constitutional objections ! against allowing such partial immu-! nitv liavc been promptly brought for-J ward, but they have not been accepted j everywhere as conclusive and the mat- | ter may therefore be regarded as legit- | imatcly within the province of legisla-1 tion. What should be done about it? The question has many sides, some of which are not a little curious. The law may be stem as fate, and justice , as blind as a bat, but the idea of a ' beautiful damsel being suspended from ! die "ignominious tree" must of neees- j sity be very unpaiatable to the Amen j can mind. We do not belong to that: class of philosophers (and we speak j of ourselves in this connection with all . modesty) ^vho believe in abolishing .... ... ' all distinctions simply because none j exists between tweedlcdom and twee- j illedee. t n the contrary we believe ' it to be a parr of advancing civilization t<> asvr! ail the Matures re>uk> of ililfcrenoe wherever difference i- tonnd. But it i> notorious that women are not h.dr' so wicked a- men, and wiiv then apoo the very face of the question mav the conclusion not be drawn that their vices do not cail for such heroic measures of repression? Over and above ali other con*id oration, however, i< the undeniable tact that tl.e practice of hanging them retards the <rro\v!b r*f ai! contirn?i,tc jf gallant.*y in thoi 1* hangmrn. Wei lo not commit ourselves to the posi- j lion that capital punishment is good ! for juivoiie, in fact the bem-fioence thatj lieie i* in it in any case is so tffectu- j j ally disguised thai. we have never been \ ! able to see it with satisfactory clear- j ne:*s. But if we must have it then | there is certainly no need to carry it j i farther than the iiecessities of societv I J j demand. The Law of Costs and Fee?. A good deal has been said of lare jvbout the law in relation to costs and I fees of Court officials. An unsuccessful effort was made In our last Legislature to .secure the passage of a bill amending the same. The text of this bill was never uublished, and we have * ! therefore no means of judging of its | merits. It must be admitted that the | law as it stands is defeclive ?more especially in this, that its provisions are liable to be much abused by shysters and such others as have, unfortu; nately become deaf to all the whisper| ings of conscience. This should not ; be so. Abuses should be corrected i wherever they have appeared. But the tone and temper of those I who have assumed to speak and to i write about the matter lately, indicate a total misapprehension of the task that is set befo then?. The law ma" be all evil, but it is a necessary evil. Ii" the stubborn and the litigious refuse to yield to the just demands of others, they must be made to do so, and the creditor having gone to great trouble to e&tablish his claim, the party in default should pav all costs and expenses. When this issue is fairly submilted to the peo 1c there will be no uncertainty in the answer that is given. um i- i i\ : . v. >v nm is ivanieu <nen, is su';n umcnumentaswill secure the law from unwarrantable abuses. But earnest reformers cau hope to gain nothing' by misrepresentation. Exposure will foice thvin to yield along with the untenable much tbat is really sound. An exainpie of this method of attack in the present war on costs is at hand. The Charlotte Chronicle complaining of the laws of this State, cnvc thflf ft oArfniM firm in fh.lt. eitv brought suit against a New York coinpany having property in Lancaster, S. C. The property was attached. The Charlotte firm lost the case, and had the fellowing bill of costs to pay: Sheriffs $11.25, Appraisers $2.50, Defendants' attorney $4.00, Clerk ?3.50, total $21.25; and to this is artlessly added fee of Plaintiffs' attorney $.15.00, making in all $36.25, and this was taken as a satisfactory basis for a tirade against the ^aws^of this State. isc ffnat the laws of tills State J Tiave to do with the fee of $15 which the plaintiffs (the Charlotte firm) paid to their attorneys, it is difficult for an obtuse South Carolinian to see. Moreover the costs in this case were not a cent more than might have been expected. It appears that the sheriff was obliged to ride a distance of eighty miles, and it is well known that attach- | ment proceedings involve a good deal of work generally. Tne fact that the legal gentleman from Charlotte were beaten out by their brethren down this way, can form no just cause of complaint. If the North Carolina papers have to < kick up a fuss every time that takes place, therecan be no telling when they , will be found in a good humor. Ins^Jar as our laws in relation to j defective they should be ] amended, and the lawyers in the Leg- ] islatnre should not be behind non-pro fessional men in the matter. They owe it to themselves to *-ee to if, that there is no just cause for heaping reproach on their profession. If the letter of the law is all right, then be it enacted that grievous abuses must cease at once and sine die. The question has come and it will stay for treatment. There is no donbt about it Paper. i We arc indebted to Mr. Ilenry George for a copy of the lirst issue of his paper, the Standard. It is a lifliidcnmniv nn sir-fiolnrnn quarto shed, and tv> say that Mr. George is editor renders needless the observation that it is a vary readable journal. The editor is well known to the world as the author of "Progress and Poverty," "Social Problems," and other works, lie is a bold thinker and an uncompromising reformer. Mr. George frankly says in his salutatory that his peculiar social and polifical views will be advocated in the the columns of his paper. Leaving for a time the position of apolitical philosopher, therefore, he assumes the position of a political agitator, and the gospel which he preaches has the virtue of being original, though it may be wanting in the essentials of orthodoxy. The proposal, for instance, for the abolition of private property in land is one wnicn suocks tne conservatism i of a people who have inherited the ! traditions of a modified feudalism, and who have grown np in the conviction that the institutions which they sec around them have been the means by which mankind have achieved and preserved tne results of civilization. It is not therefore a matter for surprise that Mr. George's doctrines should meet with a,passionate opposition, that he should te classed wiih the Nihilists, the Anarchists ana the Communists and that the rallying word ol hi? opponents should be, "To r ~i... 5* su% e bucict\. It is but fair, however, to the "San Francisco prophet" to say that he has nothing in common with these apostles of the new dispensation whose venal creed may be dimmed up in the sensualist dogma, "Let us cat and drink for lu-morrow we die." On th* contrarv, Mr. George would scrupulously preserve to individuals ilie fruit?" of individual eflort. His is j a gospel of utouian optimism which look* forward to the dav of peace and plenty. when poverty shail have disappeared from the earth. As to whether Miis is a possible achievement in the progress wf huma.ary we will venture no opinion, merely remarking in passing that the problem ot '.hipressure <>f population upon 1 homeans of subsistence has neve-- been <tifflfieinly explain <! away to our sati? action. But :his is not a proper time or place 6 A for a review of the philosophy of Mr. ; George. It is sufficient to observe in conclusion that along with the advocar.v of doctrines that many persons rtrgiiru -as* iauu many others as downright wicked, he advo-1 cates the cause of some of the most j important of the living issues in the ! politics of to-day. As the acknowl- i edged leader of the workingmen and the outspoken champion of their cause, he denounces in unmeasured terms the iniquities of the tariff, which is artfully defended upon the ground of "protection to American labor." This j monstrous wrong which is still justified by law and supported by an un- | enliiihteued public opinion has received no heavier blow* than those which he has administered. The Standard is published at New York and should be read by all persons who would keep themselves posted upon the progress of the most advanced thought in the political world.
