SEN\.rot B.AIN.: mnd! one of hi.
customnary speeches in the Senate ti
other day, in which he struck Domv.
brook tshion at all the )emocrati
heads aroun him; an(I reailced the
climax by illustrtinig the love of tile
South for the North by an arithimetical
problem which he claimed is a sam
ple of all the Southern text books it
use. The example, we believe, coies
from a book once published by Gen.
1). H. 11111, and asks, "If ten cowardly
Yankees have two days' start and
make eight miles a day, how long will
they run before being overtaken b%
live brave Couftderat.ts who are pursu
ilg at the rate of tel miles a dav?'
fis is a little rough on the South wc
must admit, but Blaime knows just as
well as anybody else that this sort ol
literature does not pay any better it
the South than anyiwhere else.
The Railroad Cases.
The United States Court is In ses.
sion at Charlestonl, Chief Justiet
Walte presiding. The cases of specia
importance are those afl'eeting th<
South Carollnt and tihe Greenvilk
and Columbia Railroads. A dozei
or more lawyers arc engaged in th<
ease. and) the arguments are tot
lenigthy and intriente to repay
casual reader. The fight, of course
1$ beOtween the stockhioiers of thn
roads and the holders of difierent
classes of claims against them. At
efibrt is making to reverse the ap.
pointmenut by tJud~ge Presly of Gener
al Conner as Receiver of the Greenvilkt
Road, on the ground that the east
was not a bonu ,/dce one, and was in,
tended to prejudice certain claims. Il
is also attempted to have Judge Fishei
removed .as reeleicr of the South
Carolina Railroad because the appolint
mnt was made by Judge Bond hi
Baltimore, and it Is claimed ho had ut
jurisdiction theretbre in the premises
What the result will be cannot be
foretold, except that thle stoekholder
wilfbe left. out, ini the cold. A mong
the lawyers present are D). II. C~hami
berlain and D. T. Corbin, who shouki
be gracing the dock of the crimina
court instead of appearing as attorney
oni the civil side.
No Fear of Revolution.
Since 1877, whenx it began to be cvi
dent that the Democratie party wouli

liep~ublican party, and1 in the interes
of aings and monopolies, hnmmigratio
from abroa~d beg'an to revive, and th
arrivals in 1876 were 74,487 as agaiu
Mi,&86 in 1877, when Immigration we
at its lowest ebb. Again, the toti
imports of mnerchand ise inito the Uit
ed States for the calendar year 187
amounted to $431,822,588, again
$480,248,300 ini 1877, showing r di
crease ini 1878 of $48,433,717. TI
total exports for 1878 amountedt
$787,156,611; against $6320,802,412 1
1877, showing an increase in 1878<
$1 16,858,199. The total foreign trad
of the United States, exports and In
ports, exclusive 01 specie bullioi
showed for 1878 $1,168,968,194, agaiim
*1,100,648,712 for 1877, or un increas
of *68,410,482. Ini addition to this
should be remembered that, owing I
the fact that the confdence of th
country hn the Gover'nent was ri
stored, when it was cottain that Cot
.gressional legislation was in the goo,
and safe bands of the Demo'erats, Joh
Sherman was enabled to sell aboi
*700,000,000 four per cent. bonds t
Americans and foreigners. Thes
facts should be rememb~ered by al
American citizens. They indicat
condidence with Democracy in .powe
