A Shallow Kca-soner.
The habit of judging existing institutions
by what was thought of them
in ancient times rather than by what
they are, is not a very logical one, J
but it is a very persistent one. There
will probably always be people in this
world who will be incapable of forming
an intelligent opinion of their own,
and these will always seek ont for the
opinions of the past. They will accept
the guidance of authority rather
than that of reason, being incapable of
exercising the latter. The Nashville
preacher, for example, who de
Mounceci the stage couid imu no oecter
reason for doing so than that the
Tlieodorian Code was against it, and
that Juvenal, and Tacitus, and Plutarch,
and Pliny had denounced it. |
The stage may have been ever so corrupt
in that day, but this fact could
have no bearing upon its right to exist
to-day.
The speaker ought have remembered
that if other people should happen to
adopt his inverted proccss of reasoning,
tnat the question might be put to
the church, "Why curabereth thou
the earth?"
?
Unfortunate Ihe5- Friend i.
Canning prayed to be saved from "a
candid friend." The doomed anarchists
at Chicago should vary the formula
a tittle, and ask to be saved from the
benevolence of wicked associates.
A meeting was recently had in London
tor the purpose of expressing
sympathy for these unfortunates at
which "Stepnaik" ana rnnce xu-apuikine
were present; the latter delivered
an address in which he declared
"that if the condemued men were
hanged thei^r comrades would be justified
in retaliating in kind."
Such expressing of sympathy will
have no good effect for the anarchists
on the popular mind in this country.?
It will have no effect whatever on the
Court now charged with the duty of
looking inty the legality of the trial
and conviction of the unfortunate
men.
The laws and the people of this
country tolerate an almost absolute
freedom of speech; jthe fatter, are
ready.always ^to listen.to^a refonner,
but they will not tolerate the argument
of the bomb-shell nor does the
law countenance the use of such
agencies even on thejpolice.

It has been called to our attention
by a distinguished professor of political
economy that the Southern States
rather than bear the burdens of the j
tariff could afford to pay the manufac- j
turers of the South double the amount
which they realize upon their investments
in manufacturing enterprises
and stop the factories. It appears i
from the report on the internal commerce
of the United States for 1SS6 !
that there were in 1SS5-C only 218 I
cotton mills in ten Southern States
with an annual product of only $34,- j
500,000.
JIow insignificant the profits of this j
favored class appears when compared
with the incalculable amonnt which is
annually drained off by the tariff can
only be imagined by those who have
given careful study to the subject.
The tariff iniquity exists solely because
its beneficiaries are able to
control legislation; they own the politicians,
for the most part, body and
soul. They have bought them and
paid for them. They have bought
them regardless of party affiliation,
and they have bought some of them
cheap. The truth is lamentable, but
it bad just as well be told.
"We warn the Democratic party that
power has been given it for the good
of the people, aud it must be exercised
for their good. The tariff issue has
been avoided long enough, it can be
safely avoided no longer. Justice has
screamed herself hoarse against it.
Raising the Dead.
The partisan bias of politics may
induce many to denounce the conduct
of Judge Bond in committing the
attorney-general and county attorney
of Virginia to jail, but the sober
second thought of the people will help
them to a realization of the truth, that
even Judge Bond in this instance did
but his simple duty.
An order had been passed in the
United States Court enjoining the State
officers from proceeding under the
Act of the State Legislature, kno^vn
as the "Coupon Crusher." If the
State of Virginia or her officers felt
aggrieved by this order they should
have appealed to the Supreme gConrt
of the United States.
Bat this coarse was not taken.
Avers & Co., wiser than their generation
in their own esteem, assumed to
treat the order of Judge Bond with
contempt, and to defy the judicial
power of the Federal Government.
They went down into the graveyard
and dug up the ugly ghost of State
sovereignty, but even this had lost its
AkAMwt TM\a r\>4 An 1 oo?>or v.*hnf !
V^jUUI 111. k. ll\s v/i.1 UiUg ?? ~ j
manner of service sjie was expected
to perforin, went back to the tomb,
and her mi?gnkled votaries went down
to the jail, where they ought to have
gone, and where for the good of the
country they ought to be allowed to
stay awhile.
But the most disgusting part of the
drama is yet t< come, when Governor
Lee quits the executive mansion to go
down behind the bars to hobnob with
the jail birds. We prefer to pass this
without comment.
We are sorry for the people of Vir- !
ginia, for whom we have the kindest!
feeling. Their situation is a hard one. j
They are reduced to the last disagree-!
able alternative of choosing between :
the talented rascality of the Iteadjusters
and the effete mediocrity of the
flinders.
Let us hope that the home of Wash-!
ington and Jefferson and Madison and
Marshall may yet somehow or other t
be delivered from the leadership of
either of the two.
"Protection to American Labor."*
We have a few plain questions to j
put to our esteemed contemporary the I
Jlanvfacturers1 Record. We nave
been held up by our contemporary as
a sort of a blind leader of the blind.
But before coming to the questions,
we must state a fact of immediate j
bearing upon the issue. Here it is. j
We have now in the South millions of;
men and women post the meridian of i
life whose best days were spent in j
slavery. These people are now free
and we arc proud of it; and we choose
to believe that our contemporary is
also. They are now working in the j
cotton lields of the South, far from the j
"hum" of factories, striving to make |
an honest living, to rear and to educate
their children. Many cf them
are endeavoring, even now, by the
practice of a commendable frugality,
to save enough out of their meagre
earnings to purchase a blanket to shield
themselves from the blasts that winter .
brings.?The Scotchman, ready to:
supply their wants, beckons them to i
the shore and offers a blanket for I
Sl.oO, but the great American Repnb- j
ic says, "Stop; you must go and pay j
the wool-growers of the West 84.00
for a blanket, or you must pay $3.00
i into the treasury for the privilege of
trailing with a foreigner." And this
by a perversion of language that is
blasphemy itself is called "protection
to American lab?r."
This is a fair statement in general
of the practical working of "protection,"
and it is defended by all sorts of
sophistries.
Xow we ask our contemporary to
answer fairly: What justification can
protection otTer for the tribute which
it levies upon the unfortunate toilers
in Southern fields? Is the system not
as wicked as Burke thought Warren
FTnstinprs to be? Can we not say of it:
? o - - - - "It
does not rob from the loose superfluity
of standing greatness, it devours
the weak, the indigent, the necessitous?"
And if not, whyrnot?
We will not cease to light protection as
long as there is a vesfige of it left. We
will expose itshypocracv audits wickedness?,
and appeal to" the millions of
our countrymen who esteem justice
and liberty above price, and who are
sensible of their duties to their fellowtncn.
We will win in the end. "Onr
frjends the enemy," through the instrumentality
of fraud, falsehood and
bribery, may enjoy for a little season
their unjust advantage, but a day of
reckoning will come, and they will go
down uei'ore the righteous judgment
of a mighty people.
State JovereisB<y.
The imprisonment of the Stale officers
of Virginia brings up the dead
issues of the past. The Richmond
Stales says, among other things: "We
have, then, jhe painful, humiliating
j spectacle of a sovereign State insult.ed
i by a subordinate Federal Judge."
The News and Courier quotes the
editorial of the States, endorses it and
goes further, saying: "If Judge Bond
be sustained, then it were almost vain
for the States to enact laws, for State
gvernmcnt wiU have become a farce.
Political districts they may be, but independent
States no longer."
This is all right if anybody wants to
mourn over the dead dogma of State
sovereignty they have a right to do so,
but when the News and Courier or
any other disciple of the school quotes
the Constitution of the United States
in support of his or its doctrine, a
plain case of the devil quoting scripture
is presented. They forget that
the Constitution of the of the United
provides, Art. I. Sec. 10: "That no
State shall pass any law impairing the
"ui:?/-v-T ?' A nd thnf" it
UUlJljatlVll Ul wunuvw.
is the sworn duty of Judge Bond to
sec to it that this provision is carried
out and maintained.
Virginia invokes the doctrine of
State Sovereignty to avoid paying her
debts, and the JV<?<cs and Courier
thinks that because the Constitution
prohibits this, that "it it almost vain
for the States to enact laws for State
government."
We do not share our contemporary's
faith in State "sovereignty," nor
do we tremble as it does when the
Federal Constitution is fearlessly enforced.
The States have rights, but
not "sovereignty," rights which are
guaranteed in the Constitution and
which no judicial interpretation can
ever take away. Theso rights are
fundamental and permanent, and amj
ply sufficient for all the just purposes
of local self-government. The trouble
I in Vil-onnin soloiv beC"UCC that
State desires to set at naught that proAision
of the Constitution above quoted,
"That no State shall pass any law
imparing the obligation of contract."
' State sovereignty," if it ever had any
place in the economy of our laws, has
lost it. The issue was submitted a
quarter of a century ago to the solemn
arbitrament of war, and "State sovereignty"
went down. lie who invokes
it nov.* for partisan and political
purposes is an enemy to the South
and to Southerners, to the North and
to Northerners, to America and to
! Americans.

The Judjjc.
What part docs he act in this inter- ;
esting and solemn drama? Does the ;
defendant and his counsel feel or man- j
ifcst any concern or uneasiness during i
the progress of his charge? Does the j
attorney for the State feel or manifest;
confidence and reliance that sophistry :
will be unravelled and rebuked? Not j
at all. They all know that he is pow- j
erless to aid the jury or to influence!
the result. lie is looked upon with j
kindness and tender sympathy, and j
listened to with respect as he goes
through with his fixed and monotonous
formula. His only power, province
and duty is to preside at the j
trial, maintain "order, exclnde incomnetent
evidence ("and of this there is
precious little left on the statute book)
and to instruct the jury as tothe law
of the case.
In trials for homicide this consists
in defining felonious and non-felonious
homicide instructing the jury not to
convict unless, in their view of the
facts, the defendant has been proved
to be guilty beyond a reasonable
doubt, arid that, if from the evidence
they entertain a reasonable doubt of
the defendant's guilt, they must acquit
hiin.
Such, in brief, is the substance of
the Judge's charge, and beyond this
he dare not go.

enacts that "Judges shall not
charge juries in respect to matters of
fact, but may state the testimony and
declare the law."-- Judge J. II. Ilud.
son on the Defects of our Criminal
Laic.
Clearly Judge Hudson is dissatisfied
with the limitations which the Constitution
imooses upon the functions
of the Judge. This, however, is no
conclusive reason to assume that the
law should be altered. Great Judges
have rarely been distinguished for
their ability as legislators.
The right of trial by jury is at the
foundation of English liberty and a
proposition to repeal or abridge it
should be severely tried. The instituI
tion has its defccts, let us grant, but
these arc virtues when compared with
i any scheme which may be substituted
| in its stead.
As the law stands, the humblest citij
zen cannot be deprived of his life or
| his liberty, or be despoiled of his prop{
erty, except by the free and deliberate
i judgment of twelve of his country!
men. This will not be the case when
j the Jmke sits with them as one of the
! triers of the facts authorized to "ex|
pose and rebuke sophistry."
j The Judge is empowered under the
Constitutior to "state the testimony
and declare the law." He may array
the testimony, which makes tor the
guilt or the innocence of the accused,
accordingly as he is impressed, in its
most logical connection, and he may
say to the jury, "If you believe this,
you must Had the defendant guilty or
not guilty, as the case may be." In
i short, he may help the jury to a conj
elusion of facts, but he must not thrust
i it ready-made upon them. The nlti|
mate issue must left to their deliberate
| choice, and this is as it should be. To
j clothe the Judge with further power
is to arm him with a weapon to smite
liberty in its home.

Gentlemen:?Yours iii'juiring whether
or not I had been benefited by Kaskine,
and if so to what extent, &c., to
hand. In reply will say that my health
has not been as good in twenty years
- tti r *
as now. I suffered witn emus num
malarial poison contracted while serving
in the Confederate army on the
Peninsular Campaigns in Virginia. Did
not miss having a chill at least once in
twenty-one days, and more frequently
once in seven days, for more than fifteen
years.
In this condition I visited New York
in November, 1SS5, on business.
While there I stopped with Mr. E. D.
Barker, of the University Publishing
Company. I told Mr. Barker of my
condition. He called my attention to
your Kaskine and procured for me a
bottle. After my return home 1 toot
the pellets as directed and found much
relief afforded thereby. Of this change
I wrote Mr. Barker, who sent two or
three bottles during the past year. My
health greatly improved. I increased
in weight from 165 pounds to 200
pounds, my present weight I believe
the Kaskine did it. Quinine had failed,
as had other remedies usually administered
in such cases.
Now, unless in case of exposure to
extra bad weather, I do not have chills,
and my general health is quite good.
I turned over half a bottle to a young
lady friend a few weeks since. I learn
from her mother that she was much
benefited by it while it lasted.
I trust you may be able to introduce
Kaskine generally in this country, in
which many suffer from diseases consequent
upon malarial poison in the
system. From my own experience I
can emphasize its excellence for such
diseases. If I can serve you call on me.
I am very truly yours,
John C. Scarborough. ;
Seven years ago I had an attack of
bilious remittent fever, which ran into
intermittent malarial. I tried all the
known remedies, such as arsenic, merI
cury and quinine. The latter was administered
to me in heavy and continued
doses. Malaria brought on nervous
prostration and dyspepsia, from
which I suffered every thing. * Last winter
I heard of Kaskine and began using
it. A few bottles of the wonderful
drug cured me. Malaria and dyspepsia
disappeared, and as you have seen
a June day brighter for the summer
storm that had passed across the sky,
so the cloud left my life and my health
became steady and strong.
