"'KPNK.SDAV, APRIL*25, 1877 At lho but-mrs of our priucipnl dry- I uoods men an endless array of k-ileido- t scopio figures, in beautiful and harmoui ous tints, greet the eye from thoir a.? MortmeuU) of ca'icoes at 8 conts per yard, affording to tho IsTlbs material to drcs* comfortably, handsomely r.nd elegantly | at a co*t of only one dollar. Need we complain ??!" tho hardness of tho times | wbeu a woman wn dress with comfort ; and elegance for so small a sum ? Ocrtainly not, if they will ho content with this materia!; hut its very cheap ness 'ii dees it despicable in the eyes ol'lho foolish. who, in their eagerness to itui* I fate tho follies ind extravagancies of | Northern and Kuropoan fashionables, j compete for display of silks, satins, groundin-s and illusions i i eel-skin pat Urns, with creatures whoso easy methods of winning money and losing modesty give thent an insuperable advantage ii. the race, and of course, an easy triumph This is not as it should bo. The sensible women of ttie South should ( leave these creatures without a com petitor or rival, and, taking up the modest calico and oilier kindred and in expensive fabrics and guided by the;i own ever present good tuste, should I shape theiu into habiliments of real j j beauty adapted to our climate, our eir j cutiinlaticc* and above all to the character j of our women, whose modesty r.nd sell I respect are, thank llcaven, without I fault. Such a course is enough ofu-ell | to turn tho tide of fortune ultimately in our favor. Hud it been adop'od ten or j a dozen years ngo and all the money ; unneocssarily spent on female dress been economised, it could ere now have set up a luige cotton factory hi every county, doubling tho value of our staph ore it had left the vicinity in which it was raised. What could havo been done in the past decade can bo done in thy next, una must be ^lonc if wo are ever to rise out of tho sl(/pgh of poverty and defponden "" ! *[? tho misfortunes and mis ?of tho past have plunged ?rigid economy in all can retrieve our fortunes, i economy be with od to In's jiorson. It is a great mistake to associate sumptuousuess with ele gance. Though tluy are comctiiucs found associated, there is a slight in compatibility which usually dissevers them. It is certain that to good taste and fine tact elegance is quite as attainable in calicoes as in silk.-) and satins. "The Stamp of Fraud." It is to bo regretted that the short note of Mr. C. I''. Adaius to Mr. Til,Ion should have found it,s way into print. It lends (ho Bunction of a respcctablc name to a political slang which ou^ht to be dropped, if only in the interest of decency. To assert that the ( stnmp ol fraud" rests "upon the brow" of Presi dent Hayes is unqualifiedly falso. That his clcctiou was securud by fraud on the part if tho election manipulators ol Louisiaunn, Florida and pushups South Curolfna, and that the ex retne and up scrupulous partisanship of the republican members of tho electoral commission which refused to consider these frauds, amounted its< If to an astounding fraud, is unquestionably tru\ Hut this did not afTect Mr. Hayes. His withdrawal from tho contest would not have in augurated Mr. Tilden, but would in all human probability liavo protracted and perhaps perpetuated the infamous reign of (Ion. Grant. So that, on a calm iu view of all facts, we doubt if a more patriotic course could ba pointed out than that which Mr. Hayes pursued. He has been elected President of the United States by moons of which he could not koow and by a party which ho could nofe. control, and his fame ns a statesman and patriot will necessarily depend upon hia official conduct for the next four years. Ho bids fair to make it ns bright and untarnished as that of any of his predecessors. But, af all others, Mr. Adams should abstain from throwing stones at his neighbor's sup posed glass house. For tho election of Mr. Hayes is not tho "first" instance in which "fraud'' was chattel with being "triumphant" iu a Presidential election Life Insurance- -A Maelstrom. Wo learn from the New York Sun that (ho amount of fundi held, or pro* fussed (o bo held, by tho lifo insurance companion of this country is about $400,000,000; whilo thoir nutstumii ig policies amount to over $'2,000,000,000. Tho policy holders, in tho long run, pay moro than this latter sum ; yet they iu the nggrcgato get nuthlng but a mere pittance of it back again?a mere bait to cntioe other simple ouea into tho trap. Of ono hundred and fifty thousand policies annudly issued in tho State of New York, leas than ton thousand are terminated by death ; seventy fivo thous and lapse from tho uon payment of premiums, and the rest are got lid of in various ways?-chiefly, w ? suspect, by (he insumuco companies becoming in ?imm ?olvoot and bankrupt before the death of tbo parties insured. Wccall the atlcutioo of our people to these startling fi^urv-s. If a uiau h:*s i oot insuivd, he had better no? do it uu- | le-j filuced uudor peculiar cirvuuistauc s. Kveu if he hut insured aud has paid ou I) a few premiums, it in well worth his serious cousideration whether it is not better to forfeit them than wajlo more money oir the Mwindle?always provided he is sound and healthy. No people under the suii, or ih-t ever were under the sun, cau submit to n tax of 62,000, 000,000 on one generation to bo upian dercd by drones, knaves r,nd gamblers without ruiu and impoverishment. ? We have repeated y before lifted up our voice iu warning against the evil in fluence of life insurance carried to an excess, ns it has been at the South, but we*have not before met with as definite statistics to confirm our convictions. The Ru -?o-Turklsh War. Southern fartueis should not over look the now imminent possibility of a war between Russia and Turkey. Kven if confined to those two powers alone (as it should be, but as it is to be feared it will uot be) it cannot affect us other wise than injuriously, lepressing the [ftice ol our staple?cotton?and raising the prices of the provisions which we so ex tensively buy. rii is consideration should induce the farmer at once to revise his | plau ol crop and to withdraw from cot- j ton every aero which iH not [iceuliarly i well ad ipted for tli.it crop, and to put it ! in com, p'Nis. or something else which 1 may avail to shorten the provision bill ! of the next \i\ir It should ti >t he! imagined t iat btc'iii;c t* i> war h:;s | within the p ist year so often seemed im ' mincnt wre shall ngiin have the samo f.ircc repeated?the cry of wolf, but no ' wolf. Ih.it this w ;r must occur seems j now almost certain; the only tiling I doubtful being as to whether it will in volve other nation*, and perhaps the world, in its confl ignition. This will depend upon its duration, and that up on the ability of the Muscovite to crush the Tuik at one campaign. This can scarcely bo don?. When last pitted singly against each other, lSl'S-21), there was no such superiority eviuc.-d by Rus sia us vvould justify such an expectation, and she h.'.s now to contend with an element which was wholly wanting then ?the aroused and heightened national and religious fanaticism of the Turk ? an element which, in *ts intensity, may overthrow ull the calculations of tlw" strategist. Upmi tho whole, wo inay look for o ?r. which, ere. Tbo Political Outlook. The itidepeudont and ]>atriotiu course thus far pursued by President Hayes promise* yery fairly to break up the chronio incrustation* which have lor u long time hampered tho two great parties of tho country, and to permit tho cJif" fercnt elements which make up tli's American People to readjust themselves politically according to their affinities, inclinations or interests, roal or fancied: Ibr nothing but a name nnd a clique gives unity now either to tho Demo cratic or Republican party. These parties arc themselves divided into fac tions as hostile and irrecoucileahlo as the parties themselves are to each other. Ulainc, Morton, lieast liutler and such scamps hate Hayes far worso than they do Tilden ; and on tho other hand, there is no room for sympathy between contiactionist and expansionist Demo crats, of whom Mr. Tilden and ex Gov eriii-r Allen, of t) iio, mi^ht fairly be taken as typ s. What bjti'J can hold tojother elements so repugnant now when tho President h is reu.ovcd or is removing those federal encroach ments upon constitutional liberty made by I.is prcdcccs or and to with-t net which was the duty of ail partrio's and of an importance paramount to every other political duty of the hour? We confess wo can see none and imagine none. The old parties, therefore, must fall into speedy dissolution an<l new ones be firmed , whether with new names or not, whether with a Da lit esq ue interchange of names, is no matter. We, therefore, cannot imagine any impropiic ty in a Southern Democrat accepting office under appointment from Presi dent Hayes, though w>? imagine none with a spirit bigger than tint of a mouse wouid bocome suitor for office to the man whom Ihey have so recently or so bitterly opposed.
