The civilization of this country cannot besam ?~ -- - k-m ! tn.t of Mexico in the matter of punishing dead meti and women. ?The editor of the Louisiana Democrat saw, a few days ago, m Alexandria, an old negro freed man, at least eighty-five years old, with two large navy revolvers buokled to his waist, a pepper-box revolver in each breeches pocket, a huge sugar cane knife in his bosom, and a loaded walking cane in his right hand. Ho was a delegate to the Radical mongrel convention. ?The tin toys used in this country aro now nearly all made in Meridon, Connecticut, where large quantities of tin household goods are also manufactured. It occurred to the makers of these latter that their scraps could be advantageoualy used for toy objects, aud with the advantage of labor-saving machinery, they have driven their German rivals from this market. ?It is one of the significant indications of the progress of the age that passengers can now pur chase tickets in New York direct for China, Japan, New Zealand, the Sandwich Islands and Australia, as well as points in Europe. The establishing of the Paoiflo steamship line between San Francisco and Shanghai inaugurates the revolution whi<sh makes a voyage to the most distant lands no more than a holiday excursion ?The New York Heaald states that a compara tive statement of prices in New York, Fbuadel phis, Paris, London, Berlin, and other prominent cities in all parts of the world shows that our metropolis is the most expensive on the globe in the matter of food. The whole cause of this so cial misfortune lies in the fact that the food itself comes to tho consumers through too many mid dle men, all of whom must make their per oentage. ?The Knoxville Press aaya : "J. \V. Allen has arrived with specimens of the mineral wealth of the Cumberland Mountains he has gathered. Thoco that have particularly struck us are a bit of iron ore containing ninety per cent, of pure metal, a piece ol pure alum as taken from the original bed, and several partioles of black oxide of manganese, whioh exists in abundanoe, and is valuable for bleaching or as a substitute for cop peras." ?The Boston Post's Washington correspondent says: "An attachment has been iasued for Gene* xsl Baker, to bring him again before tho Judiciary Committee, and it is said ho is now under ar rest. The General ?will be required to explain many of hie statements, whioh are in direct con suet, concerning President Johnson. It is under stood that no member of the committee gives the slightest credence to anything Baker has said, un less substantiated by other testimony." ?The Paoiflo Railway Directors, it is reported, have resolved to use petroleum as a fuel for their locomotives. The coal dlsooveries reported on the lins of that road may bo exaggerated; but even if correct, it will require time to work them proper ly, and a settlement of the Indian troubles, so that mining operations will be safe. It is repre sented that ons locomotive can carry sufficient pe troleum, without infringing on the room necessary for freight and passengers, to keep up steam for a run of a thousand miles. ?ThCpeople living along the Hudson Rfver, in the neighborhood ol the plaoe whero tbe steamer Dean Riehmond was wrecked, are reaping a good harvest from that disaster. The cheese, wbioh formed a large part of the cargo of the steamer, is floating up and down the river as the tide ebbs and flows, and parties from both shores put off in boats and capture large quantities of it. They say it is of excellent quality, and not damaged. The total loss to tho company owning the Dean Biehmond, by tbe accident to their steamer, is said to amonnt to $800,000, ?The evening schools of New York city include ons high school, two oolored sohools, and thirteen male and elevsn female schools. To these are admitted persons of ovary class and age, from twelve years to sixty. They ars taught in the usual rudiments, and in the high school algebra, book-keeping, navigation, natural philosophy, practical mechanics, the French, German, Span ish and English languages, and other more diffi cult branches are taught. The sohools are at present in foil operation, twenty-one hundred scholars being in attendance. ?In Washington ?ity a new system of running ears has been introduced. Only one-horas cars are ran, and they have no conductors. They are twelve feet six inohes long, seven feet six inches wide, seven feet five inohes in height (inside), and are calculated for sixteen passengers each, eight on a side. These oars are said to weigh about three thousand pounds eao?. There ia no rear platform, but in its place a low step, on which people get in and out. The front platform is ex clusively for tbe driver, being aemi-oiroular in form, and feneed in to prevent passengers from getting on. ?At a former session of Congress the Secretary of War was authorized to sell tarn s-round? ytvywtvjvi tue uovernment at Harper's Ferry, and arrangements were afterward made by the Department to bring them into market But there appears to be a stay of the proceedings, the heirs of those who sold the property'to the Gov ernment now claiming that the dsed expressly provides the land convoyed to the United States should be used only by the Government, and by no other parties. Tbeamocuit purchased was about one hundred end twenty-five acres, for seven thousand dollars. The deed was executed to George Wash ington, who soted in behalf of tho Government. ?The Orefljfc Mobilier, tho famous French en gine of speculation, is threatened with collapse. Established ostensibly to furnish capital for im portant business enterprises, its shares have been subject to tbe most extraordinary fluctuations. Its capital stock was originally 60,000,000 francs, par value 600. Subsequently tbe stock doub Isd, and at times of active speculation the Shares have changed bands at 1899, while they have sold as low as 800. Its direotiors have been of Ute making somewhat reckless advances, and unless the Bank of Francs comes to tbe. r?sous, which it is Utils mclinsd to do, it must feu, and in its fall *ul sorely involve the finances of the Frsnch JpOfde. ?The exportation of condensed meat to England promises to become an important part of the Aus. ireban trade. The prescribing of nutritious food is now the fashion among doctors, both in their l??^Ktl0*Mrlia ?overnment and cberiU . bis institutions. The <>?*umpUon of soups and gravies, sad especially of ba?f tea, Is partly re sponsible tor the high pries of m tat in the English anrtehsr shops. The process which ths Australians use is that ?avsntsd by Baron listig. Every morsel of fat, sinew and albumen is cut away from' ths fresh beef, and the soluble matter in ths re mainder is then extracted by steam.

Just as fast as she Pajiflo Railway posses the groat military posts upon its Une, these become unnecessary, and are, in effect, abandoned. Fort Leavenworth, which was of auoh magnitude as to be a little oity of itself, is reduced to a vast store house of war materials, and a ploasant place of call for army officers on their way to, or returning from, the Plains. The road went by Fort Harker, and three miles beyond created Juuotion Oity. Tho frontier was changed in a day. Immediately the large military work at Harkor ceased to be an oisfejast, and the troops quartered there went to the West, This very month Fort Hayes will also oease to bo an outpost and become an impost. So will Fort Wallace by the middle of May next. The EanBaa Paoiflc Railway pushes "the Plains" fur ther and further West, savos the Government the necessity and expense of permanent forts, and narrows the field of operations against the In dians. Tho army officers regard it professionally, and consider it the most important military agency in the effectual settlement of the Indian question. Tis a peaceful conquest the road makes as it goes over the unsettled Plains; and the Government should feel that the warfare upon the Indians, which will shed the least blood, waste the least money, and soonest lead ty permanent po.'ico, will bo generous aid to the road to reach , the Pacific at as early a day as is possible. 1 The Nation, of October 10, says the news of yes ?terday morning would seem to indicate that ' France will leave the Roman question to be solved by the "march of events," which in this instance means the march of the G a rib.i Uli an volunteers, and that the Italian Government will have to in terfere for the Pope's protection. The plan of al lowing Pins IX. to retain the government of the city during his lifetime, even if agreed to, would be certain not to work, and it in probably only talked of as a means of letting his Holiness down easy. The Roman population could never bo kept in order or the Italiads deprived of their capital by a potentate of this sort. The Papacy will pro bably bo enabled before many months to boast that it?the Vicegerent of Christ on earth?was the last power in Christandem to employ merce nary troops, and that its troops were, individually 1 and collectively, the" most worthless vagabonds that ever stood in Une. If St. Peter were to see them in time uf jk>?oo, w* may p?rh?p? Imaaine bis disgust; bnt we doubt very much whether we can form any adequate conception of what bin feelings would be if he were to se* thorn coming out of action with victorious heretics and infidels in their rear. The Philadelphia Aqe says: "It is a long time since we have read fairy tales, and we are not pre pared to say in what part of the world it was that the old man got on Sinbad's shoulders. Possibly it was Africa, and he who ataok to tho poor unfor tunate was a negro. The RepubUcan party is Sinbad. They have got something on their shoul ders which they cannot get rid of. Like poor Sin bad, they invited him to bestride them, and now they would give up everything to get rid of him. But there he sits and defies them. Let any one look at the RepubUcan newspapers before the elec tion and see how persistently they contended for absolut? negro equaUty?how they, insisted on their riding In the care, not as a matter of charity and kindness, but of social and political equality? how they blazoned the deeds of negro soldiers how they instituted charitable agencies (of which, we do not at all complain) for negroes as distin guished from whites?how vigorously they con tended for negro suffrage. Let any oho see aU this, and then he wfll comprehend the perplexity of tho Republican positiou sow. They dar? not abandon their negro aUies, and, ein?? the vote in Ohio, they dar? not advocate his claims. To KEOisTEB the direction of the wind, a simple tveathercock is used, which is connected alter nately with a system of fonr eleotrio magnets cor responding with the fonr cardinal pointe. Each 3f these magnets directe a particular pencil; when tho vane turns to the North, it communicates with the first pencil; when it turns to the East, rrith the second, and so on; the pencil than traces i series of black strokes on tho paper, as long as its wind blows in the same direction. This is the -egiatering anemometer of M. Da Monoel. This s how tho rainfall is measured : The water that alia is collected by a funnel from which it flows nto a Uttle cistern.

We publish in another column General Order No. 98, from Military Headquarters, ordering an election in the State of South Carolina on the 19th and 20th days of November next, "at whioh all registered voters of said State may vote for a Convention or against a Convention, and for delegates to constitute the Convention." The order will be read with interest by every one. j JUDGE BK /irc'KDtaci We publish, this morning, an opinion of the Hon finnans S. Bryan, United States Judge for the District of Souih Carolina declaring the Civil Rights Bill, the Reconstruction Acts, and the tyranny under which the South is groan ing, constitutional. We regret this decision deeply. We believe that but few lawyers, either North or South, would be willing to en dorse this decision. We as journaliste and lovers of the liberties of our country, regret that Juduk Bryan, a South Carolinian, should have been the person by whom the opinion was delivered. We know the Judge well, and for no man in the community have we more personal regard. We know that he can do nothing either small or mean; and we would not be understood, in any way, to insinuate that his decision is not the diotate of an up right conscience. No one who has ever had the pleasure of knowing him could believe that he would do other than that whioh he believed to be straightforward, manly and true. In protesting against the decision, we protest against the views of law taken by a Judge. Those viewa we believe will be overturned whenever the voice of law can be heard. Against these views we, as Americans, enter our earnest protest. We have been raised in a school which taught us to believe that expe dient and law are two very different things. We have been taught to think that whenever a Judge is convinced that "ita lex scripta est," he cannot turn aside from the law and frame a theory which, u "^L pleasing to the party in power, and perhaps expedient, is, neverthe less, without warrant in the written law. If | the Judge'* opinion does this not, we are at a loss to understand it. He says In fact, if not in | words, "There is a written Constitution, it is true, but none but antiquated lovers of liberty believe any longer in that document. South Carolina, too, has a Constitution, but th* dead body and dry bone* of Amer ican liberty, called by courtesy Congress, but whioh counsel, in the latitude of de bate called a Rump, haB declared that the StaC* ?? ?4W*d ?uad buvlari I ' era a Judge by virtue of that Rump having sucoeeded in con quering rebellion. The people will bring things right one of these days, but at present [he wishes of that Rump are law. Their acts, whatever they may be, are constitutional. Even their wishes are to be obeyed. I do not find constitutional law for declaring the Bump supreme, but I know the fact that the Rump conquered a great rebellion, and therefore the Rump could hang all of the Governors of all of the Southern States. Jury trial used to mean something, and the Constitution says something about if,; but the OonfttUttUos !s dead in this Court and in this State, and there Fore every act of Congress, 'so-called,' la con stitutional." We do not think that wo misstate the aub jtance of the decision. If we do, our readers wn judge for themselves. We are glad, for the sake of constitutional law and constitu tional liberty, that snob ? deoision is not final und conclusive on the country. If that opinion is law, the United States is the last country in the world for a man to live iu. A revolution can be gotten up at any time, or a Fturap of Congress may declare that one exist*, [f a State officer violates his duty, the State Constitution is dead and buried, not to live igain, except is so much as Congr?s? may par a?t, or even any two men, or one man, having he power may allow. This may be law; but f it is taw, it is not to be found sanctioned by my jurist of distinction la ibis country or in 2ugland; it certainly ta >f? law ander vhtch We have deluded ourselves tha", we ware iving; nor is It the taw and*? which we desire o live. We dismiss the subject to-day with a renewal vbat w* believe to be hi* unsound vl?w/i as a Fftsjf? en aqaestlea of vital importance to th? vhota Amaalesa people, .
