BY JULIAN A. SELBY, A Striking Contrast.?The Chicago' Tribune mentions some instances of the fairness of the whites in the South ia their efforts to secure honest go? vernment for both races. The first Democratio Legislature of Texas since the war, which was elected a few months Bince, had brought before it a couicotcu election case. The claim? ants were Walter Barton, colored. Be publican, and Hunt, white, Democrat. The ballots for the former had been miB-spelled. Burton was elected, but Walter Burton was not. Yet this De? mocratio Legislature believing that n majority of the voters meant to choose Walter Burton, promptly seated him. When the present Arkansas Constitu? tion nl (Convention came together, J. Pennoyer Jones, a colored Republican, nlaimed the seat occupied by the Hon. X. J. Findall, white, Democrat. Pin dall is a distinguished lawyer. He was elected, technically speaking, but it was olearly the wish of the nwjority of voters in his district to ohoo6e Jones. The convention would not let the voters' errors, in spelling and other? wise, defeat their wish. It unseated Pindall and seated Jones. Republican Congressmen may well blush before such examples of justice. They will find nothing like them in the decisions of contested eleotions by CongresB. Hou. Marshall Jewell, late Miniafter to Russia, and the recently-appointed suooessor to Mr. Cresswell as Postmas? ter-Genera), has gone to Washington to enter upon the duties of his office. In connection with this event, the fol? lowing statistics may be interesting: In the decade from 1864 to 1874. the number of letters transmitted by the United States mail has inoreased from 335.000,000 in 1864 to 900,000,000 in 1874?a greater inorease than hae ever taken place in any country during the same length of time. In the first five years of the decade, the rate of inorease was 50 per cent., and for the last five years it was 80 per Cent The cost of handling 502,000,000 letters in 1864 was $33,698,000, and the cost of 900, 000,000 for the year epding June 30, 1874. was about $34,000.000. This shows that an increase of 80 per cent, in the amount of business has increased the expenditures of the department 44 per cent. In 1868, the annual deficit was $6.437,000; in 1878, it was 56,180,000. How is it that girls can always tell a married man from a single one? The fact is indisputable. Blsokwood says that "the fact of matrimony or bache? lorship is written so legibly in a man's appearance that no ingenuity can con? ceal it. Everywhere there is some in? explicable instinot that tails ns whether an individual (whose name, fortune and circumstances are totally un? known) be or be not a married man. Whether it is a certain subdned loots, Buch as that which characterizes the lions of a menagerie, and distinguishes them from the lords.of the desert, we cannot tell; bat tha truth is so, we positively affirm."
