NEWS OF THE DAT.
-Gold closed in New York at UftiUf.
-Cotton closed firm; uplands 20;c; isles
2100 bnles.
-In Liverpool cotton closed heavy; unlar js
9Ja9$d., Orleans 9?a9jd.; sales 12,000 t?ies,
-Mrs. McFarland-Richardson will open a
store In Chicago.
-Miss Laura Fur gives dark hints of shoot?
ing a certain Chicago reporter In case she ls
cleared.
-California is shipping pears to Eastern
markets by the car load, and the growers are
realizing handsome profits.
-The cotton receipts at Macon, Georgia,
since the 1st inst., have been lighter than for
the same time ia any year during the past
twenty years, If the four years of the war are
excepted.
-The public school committee of Boston de
clines to abolish corporal chastisement ol male
pupil?, on the ground that the "best teachers"
do not abuse lt. Granted; but if flogging be
requisite for the moral and Intellectual ad?
vancement of male scholars, why should Its
advantages be withheld from the other sex ?
Such a glaring piece of injustice must shock
all who uphold the equality ol the sexes.
-A street car dummy is to be tried In De?
troit, The car ls so arranged that the engine
consumes its own smoke and steam, and
moves along the street noiselessly and smooth?
ly. The cost of running it ls four-filths less
than by horse-power. One dollar per day will
keep it in fuel, and two men can run ir. It is
so arranged that the engine only occupies
surp us room under the floor of the car, lt
being somewhat higher iban ordinary cars.
-Some excitement bas been aroused In New
York over the stay of proceedings granted by
Judge Pratt, of Brooklyn, ia the case of Buck
bout, the Sleepy Hollow (New York) u-tirderer,
who was to have been hanged on friday last
What adds to the public dlfp'easure in this
matter ls, that lt was the same judge who,
when all efforts ?md failed elsewhere, granted
a similar stay of sentence last July in the case
ol Foster, ihe car-hook murderer. The system
under which Pratt hos acted in these two cases
is one whereby any one cf the thirty-three
judges of the Supreme Court in the Slate cnn
granta stay of proceedings In the case of any
sentenced murderer, whether the trial occur?
red within his district or not.
-The Chinese of California were, a few
days ago, about to meet In' a place called
Chinatown, for the purpose of holding what
might be termed a campmeeting. A pavilion
was erected, and a large number of Josses, or
Chinese gods, were in position awaiting the
coming of the faithful. Some of these idols
were tall, some short, some corpulent, and
some thin; In tact. Joss was lhere in every
shape and of invariable ugliness. The prin
clpalJoss ls a dratron ot hideous mein and im
mense length. Ail these e ods will be worship
ped at once by ihe Chinese at this campmeet?
ing, and the whole affair will be, as one of the
Celestials sententiously remarked, "Ailee same
as Meliican man preachee."
-A New York telegram, of Tuesday, says
"There was excitement In Wall street to-day
caused by manipulations for higher rates of
interest, and before the close of bank hours
call loan rates were put up to seven per cent
For the first lime in mouths l hey were opto
legal rate of interest. The advance in money
was warranted by the legitimate demand. At
one time during the afternoon lt was reported
that a large city bank had ca'led In all its loans
-about $5,000,000-and agreed for considera
tlon not to lend any money for a specified
time. This report, which was not without its
influence, was authoritatively denied at the
close. The gold syndicate made another suc
cesslul squeeze in cash gold to-day. At an
early hour the syndicate and Its Canadian
bank, and other friends, c died In their gold
previously loaned, and sent into the cold room
to bid f uriously and in extravagant manner for
the use of cash gold. By this device the bor?
rowing rate ?or cash gold was run wp to seven
Bixteenths."
-By a late arrival from Nassau we learn
that the cyclone which recently swept along
the North Atlantic coast struck the Bahamas
about twenty-lour hours before Its effects were
felt here, with di-a9troiis energy. The cale,
or succession ol gales, were terrille, the storm
Bhlftlng Irom the northeast to the southeast.
The whole coasts of the Islands are strewed
with wrecks, from which much valuable prop?
erty and many ?ives have been destroyed.
Sweeping through the island of Abaco, the
storm completely divided it Into two islands,
carrying with its violence a large number of
inhabitants, who bave been the victims ot its
fury. A large amount of property was also
carried away and probably burled in the sea.
The ripe fruit crop ol the various islands com?
posing the group has been entirely Bwept
away. Nothing remains of the orange or
banana crop but the very young growth, and
the trade In these fruits has been very serious?
ly disturbed. Taken in connection with the
effects of the tornado in Florida, we see but
little prospect for the usual fall and winter
supply of tropical fruits for this market.
-There ls in New Orleans a small commu?
nity r?l Sicilian* through whose intercourse
with each other appears to run a thread cf
hostility that resembles a vendetta. For many
years past murders and shooting affrays
among these people have been frequent.
These Sicilians do not seem to disturo any
other class of citizens with their killing pro?
pensities; but among themselves they periodi?
cally iurnish food for the coroner in slaying
each other. The cause, immediate or
remote, of this lasting feud has
never been ascertained by the au?
thorities. When a murder or a cutting, or
shooting difficulty occurs among them, they
preserve, as far as possible; stolid silence,
not only as to the cause of the affray, but as to
the Dame ol the guilty man as well. Should
the victim of I he assassination, or the attempt,
ed assassination, be asked the name of his as?
sailant, he will reply that it is nobody's busi?
ness. Should the witness to the affair be
Viestioned to the same end, they will shrug
their shoulders and confess to nothing. Every
succeeding crime committed by these Sicilians
upon the person of one ol'their number is Ihe
logical sequence of a crime previously perpe?
trated by the person who suffers last; but
whether the vendetta that is thus so sedulously
maintained be the result of a lamily feud or of
hereditary sectional difficulties having their
origin in Sicily-something like the feuds of
the Irish Orangemen and Ribbonmen-has
never been made clear. All that is known is
that these assassinos Sicilianos ply a lively
trade ot mutual murder, and take nobody into
their confidences. The latest result of the
traditional quarrel among this class is shown
in the death of one of them at the hands of a
comrade a few days ago in New Orleans.
A Rogue in Bnckram.
Senator Scott, in bis letter to President
Grant, urging the proclamation of Martial
Law in South Carolina, described the pres?
ent condition of aflairs in Spartanburg and
York counties in these words:
"The cruelties that have been perpetrated in
Spartanbt.rg and York counties are shocking
to humanity. * * * ? The members of
these organizations-the Ku-Klux-have again
resumed their arms and their midnight raids
cf brutality and assassination."
The most trustworthy citizens of the
county published, at once, a point-blank de?
nial of the truth of the Btatement, and Sen?
ator Scott set to work to explain his posi?
tion in a second letter to the rresident. It
was expected that be would either acknowl?
edge himself to be mistaken, or show con?
clusively that the citizens of Spartanburg
were utterly wrong. But ho does neither.
AU that be advances is the assertion that a
man named Quinn was whipped in Union
County by men from Spartanburg County,
and that, therefore, the signers of the Spar?
tanburg letter, in declaring tbat no outrages
bad been committed since the departure of
the committee, were guilty of an evasion. It
is plain that the Spartanburg letter was lit?
erally correct. Senator Scott, by implica?
tion, admits this fact. The astonishing
revelation is, that the whipping of one young
mao in Union is the only reason which Sen?
ator Scott can muster wby Martial Law
should be established in Spartanburg and
York. Two whole counties are to be put
under bayonet-rule becanse one young man
receives a thrashing across the border. No
other outrages are recorded. The frantic,
malignant letter demanding the proclama?
tion or Martial Law is founded upon an iso?
lated case of whipping, and upon that alone.
It ls this which leads Senator Scott to de?
nounce "ihese atrocities," to expose "the
"cruelties shocking to humanity," io con?
demn "th? midnight raids of brutality and
"assassination," which render "lire insecure
"and property of but nominal value."
Alas ! these rogues in buckram ; these mis?
begotten knaves in Kendal Green ! They
are as handy to-day as Jack Falstaff found
them five centuries ago.
.'The Irrepressible Conflict."
The New York Journal of C?mmerce,
philosophizing on the eight-hour procession
of the workingmen of New York, the other
day, Invites attention to the fact that
"They were, as a class, intelligent looking,
well dressed, and exhibited no tigns what?
ever ot poverty or privation. Great numbers
ot (hem, we dare say, have balances al savings
banks, and live in comiortable homes much
more happily than millions of others in this
country who never thiuk ot parading streets
with banners bearing distressful mottoes."
But as the bystander watched these long
lines of robust and clear-eyed workingmen
moving swiftly past, he was driven to won?
der- What is their grievance ? What is the
trouble with them ? The editor says :
"The Hags, the gonfalons, the inscriptions,
did not answer tht question satisfactorily.
There was a perpetual recurrence of legends
about enforcing the eight-hour law, but the
well-lniormed spectator knew that that was
not the real demand which this parade was
sent forth lo make. The truth is that this pro?
test agalust vrb&t is termed the non-enforce?
ment of the eight-hour law was merely the
pretext of Wednesday's demonstration. Hav?
ing no Fubstantial grievance before them, the
labor societies were obliged to take up with
that. Their deeper purpose was to make a
formidable display ol their numbers, to Im?
press the communltv. and, we regret to add,
to menace it, with an idea of their systematic
organization and imposing strength. 3/ieir
real aim is to Jonn a party which sliall Jix
the hours of labor and the compensation Jor
it, not alone on public buildings, but in all the
tradfs and industries of the Slate. They would
extend the power of the unions, EO as to con?
trol the details of every employer's ou-iness,
dictate to him whom lie shall hire, and what
he shall pay, and use bis capital as they, and
not he, saw fit."
Intolerable as all this would be, however,
the Journal is certain there was a deeper
motive beneath the surface :
"For, ia the turn-out of Wednesday are em?
bodied the sentiments ol the International So?
ciety of Europe, the perfect work ot whose
red hand was seen in the atrocities of the
Commune. We know that the processionists
do not think so and do not mean so, but they
are on the road that leads up to the terrible ex?
cesses ol Paris. What 6tarts out innocently
enough ends, under the guidance of dema?
gogues, in consequences at which the world
shudders. And it was an ominous sight, as
showing how naturally peaceable men will
harbor dangerous ideas in their heads, to ob?
serve in the parade a huge cannon, flanked by
red flags and moving under the shadow of a
crimson banner, inscribed "Eight hours;
peaceably ii we can, forcibly ll we must."
Nevertheless, the Journal goes on to Bay,
catechize the men in the procession individ?
ually, and you will find that most of them
repudiate communism :
"But they do not the less hold to the right
of trade unions to Impose their own crotchets
on employers, and on all non-union laborers;
and, Irom that doctrine to full-blown com?
munism, the distance Is not so great that they
might not stride over lt, under the pressure ol
organization and able, unscrupulous leader
ship. Had the procession of Wednesday been
but a display of workingmen proud o? their
trades, such as often appears in memorial cele?
brations, we should have been much pleased
with it. But as it took the form of boasts and
hardly concealed threats, we regret that so
I many citizens should have adopted 60 un
! American an idea, and one which, while it
cannot disorganize society on this side of the
Atlantic, nor do any serious harm to our insti?
tutions, will react with injurious effect upon
the workingmen themselves, socially, morally
and pecuniarily/'
European Immigration.
We are glad to see that the letter of
Messrs. Keim ? Reed, of the London Emi?
gration Agency (36 Frisburg Circos, ) pub?
lished in THE NEWS, is attracting attention.
One planter offers to give to each family of ac?
tual settlers alternate sections of about thirty
acres of arable land, together with one acre
in a central spot, where a village could be
settled, upon tbs sole condition that the
settlers build and begin work npon the land
withia a certain number of years. A tract
of land large enough for twenty or thirty
families is ready for distribution upon these
terms. Another planter, of Btanding and
culture, proposes to explain to the London
Agency the advantages which this State
offers to immigrants, especially in his neigh?
borhood, where a colony may be settled with
very small expense.
We fear, however, that little progress can
be made in obtaining immigrants, unless
there is a Slate Immigration Association,
with ample means of employing agents and
disseminating information. Nor do we
think it advisable to give away land. The
immigrants whom we desire to obtain al?
ways look with distrust upon what costs
nothing. They are disposed to make the
cost the measure of value, and we think
that reasonable prices and long credit would
suit them far better than a free gift.
Come Down to It!
The Winn8boro' News convicts a corres?
pondent ol the Union of making glaringly
false statements concerning the appearance
of Ku-Klux in Fairfield County. This charge
cannot be dodged. The Union must own
up, or be equally guilty with its Winnsboro'
Munchausen, whose veracity, as indicated
by his signature, need no longer be set
down os X, which is, we need hardly say,
the algebraic symbol representing an un?
known quantity. We give the Union time,
but " come to the scratch " it must.
