Death of Professor J3. R B. Bfarse.
During the past week tbo tolc
graph has brought the intelligence of
the death of its inventor, Professor
' X' A
Saranej F. 1$. Morse, which occurred
at ^118.residence in j^evy Yorif city, on
the ist i.DSt. Ho died full of year?
and honors, having nearly completed
hjs seventy-first year, and having re
ceived, perbaps, more aisunguisutu
foonors than h.Tre ever bpen accorded
to any othei; 4fPer,can. Crowned
bpads have showered.Mpon him marks
of their favor, and only a few months
a/gpo tho nriyeiji'ng of tys statue, in
New York city showed tho apprecia
tion of his countrymen. Theso hon
ors were well merited if greatness is
to be mensured by the vast results of
an invention which has already
changed the faeo pf the civilized
world. . . .
Long an eminent painter, accident
sop.ms to have turned his attention to |
those electrical researches which havo
immortalized ljis name.
In lS-iO.ho perfected his .palont at
the Patent: Offico, and set about get
ting his telegraph into practical ope
ration. In 1844 tho first cIcetriG tele
graph in the "United States, between
Baltimore and Washington was com
pleted. Since then its wire* have
extended over the country to the ex
tent of more than fifteen thousand
miles. Thoro has been a lengthy con
^roverqy .as to me reaj inveoior 01
tho electric telegraph, and it is care
fully analyzed by Dr. Wynter in his
"Curiosities of Civilization." Subma
rine telegraphy originated also with
Mr. Morse, /who laid the first subma
rine telegraph lines in New York
harbor in tho autumn of 1842, arid re
ceived at tho time, from tho Ameri
can institute, a gold medal for that
achievement. ? In a letter from Mr.
Morso to tho Secretary of the Treas
ury of the United States, dated Au
gust 10, 1843J it is believed occurs the
first suggestion, pf tho projnet of tho
Atlantic telegraph. Professors Morse
had his summer house at Poughkeep

his winter residoncc-,io Xew York

The Tobacco Seizures and the;; Abbe
!"1 ville Merchants.- .
Id the published proceedings of the;
United States Court, which we fiud
in the Charleston papers of Friday}
the 5th inst., occurs the following
paragraph, which certainly docs very
great injustice to; the Abbeville mer
chants, and perhaps to others, whose
names are mentionod therein :
"Convictions - wero. found against
the following nersons for haviuer to
bacco in their possession with a view
to evade Scetion 48 of the tax act of
June 30, 1864, and they were fined as
follows : Bower \V\ Barnwell, J200 ;
Marhein Kaphan, $50; Patrick Can
trcH," $20"James R. Cunningham,
$200; Andrew M. Hill, $100; L. M.
Fouche,' $100; Phillip M. Cohen,

$100; James T.' Robertson, $200;
John' C." Frazer, $50; Andrew B,
Wardlaw, $200 ; Leonard W, White,
$200;
The'injustice consists in .charging
that theso honor^e and Mgh-min
aea men nave Doen convicted 01
'.'bavin# tobacco in their possession
toith view to ei?adc the law." To avoid
trouble, e^pepsc, flnd the loss of. iirne
in attending. Court, they have plead
ed guilty to a lechni^i. violation of
tbo law, in having unstamped tobacco
in thoir possession^; but tl\cy db how
as they, have always tjone?^o^sted
^heir jiJnocence of ^ny guiltyintout.
XTn am Knm iriio knows
anything of these gentlemen, could
believe thorn guilty o? a wilful viola
tion of the iaw, ftid it is certainly a
gross misrepresentation, to makp any
other statement.. They were guilty
merely of an'inadvertence. "The
head and front of tbeir offending,

Upon the National Executive Com

Business .men iuthisgr^at eottpn

"What win "Be* the effect of\he Pre'si:

crop? The question is one of equal
importance at the North* foe upon
tho great staple '.'depends otic hbiiitj
to meet our commercial obligations
to Europe and to' regutato oiir busi
ness at liomfe. It is 'beyond doubt
that General Grant will mnke extra

States. To this end, every species of
cajolery, eVery sensation dodebknown
to political wire-pullers, will bo used
to 'bring out and fasten tho negro
vote. 'There will be mass Conventions
barbecues, torch-light processions,
protraeted meetings, and all that Sort
of thing, to tickle tho African ear
and eye.' Labor will, therefore, be
uncertain in" its operations. "The
ne^ro,' after all, is but a child in intel
lect. Ho is easily draw'ri a to ay by
glitter' and show. Tho cXeiternent
and dissipation of a political gathering,
the flattering and"1 fawning of white
men who want his vote, are peculiarly
attractive to him.' He is improvident.
Ho has nq disposition' to'- work for
more than *a bate' livelihood.- When
ihe ^barbec'no conies in competition
with the hoe, freo liqaor at the hust
ings with'toil in the ffelif, who doubts
where our colred brother will be
found ? The hottest part'of ttio Pres
idential campaign will como in the
pit-Ring season, when a day or atl hour
lost is so much lost to the cotton
crop, and aMoss that qonnot be re
trieved. Is it not possible, therefore,
that next season tpay bo a very short
crop iq consequence of the partial
withdrawal of the negroes from labor,;
and may not tho price formiddling^
once more range in the thirties ? The
matter is: worthy of"thought in the
