That Mr. Carlisle is au able states mau and an upright man no one doubts. His state was nominally in the anion during the war, though Horace Greeley once remarked that "Kentucky was the bounty-jumper of .the war." It has Tt;en the boast of iome . Kentuckians that she furnishedXher full quota to each of the contending armien. Mr. Carlisle was counted a union man.' So was Garrett Davis. Mr. Davis was un able generally t.to agree with the party of the union; U4 how best to' serve the mtional cause. , We only know of Mr. Carlisle that he 83emi to have kept up good relations with . the Democratic party, wh;.ch ai an organization al ways set-med to think the war should have been fought without ; any other than the confederate army All which - is a preface to saying that as the solid south made Mr. Carlisle's cause its own, that gentleman must not deem it ill natured it people judge him by the company he keeps. And so the solid south has taken open possession of its own aud assumed visible control of the xsemocraug party, aiiis is as it buoiuu be.

The annual repdtt of the postmaster general presents an interesting exhibit of the operations of this important branch of the government. The post oflrce department deals more directly nun itiu uaujr uuaii'css nuu aumii ui the people, and comes nearer to them in every way, than any other depart ment of the government, while the ex- tMit (it its mipml iiiNi And lh vast number of persons to which it gives employment inventrit with peculiar in terest an i importance. The report of the p mniaster general shows that the growtTFof the dai'artment and of postal business is keeping even pace with that of the country. - The total uu ruber of postofllces at the cl.se 1 the last fiscal year was 17,8('.',--an increase of 1,632. urwrj; the your.

National Repufrfica. THE ATTORN EY-GENEKAI.. OPERATIONS OF THE NATIONAL JU DICIABY DURIKG THE PAST YEAR f RECOMMENDATIONS A8 'TO UNITED STATES COURTS AND THEIR OFFICERS i A PLAN TO EXTEND THE DISTRICT JURISDICTION. The attorney-general's 'report re views ike condition of the judiciary of tho United States, aud gives statistics thereon. There remains on the docket of the Supreme Court 874 cases not disposed of. The number of cases de- hcided at the October term in which the United States were concerned was 61 j of which 80 were in favor of and 23 against the government.' Besides thefce,1 there were 13 cases tlisuiised in which the United States were concerned. Iu the Court of Claims, during the pSst year, 772 suits, claiming over $9,000,-) 000, were brought against the United States, and 51 suits, claiming $162,- 155.17, against the District of ColuuuJ bia, under the act of June 16,1880 Of the suits against the government, 80 were brought, and in 36 of them judgment was for claimants $475, 660.76. Of the -suits against the dis trict, 26 were brought to trial and judgment for claimants rendered in 20 cases, aggregating $40,901.94. In the circuit and distrci courts daring the past fiscal year 1,597 civil' suits were terminated, 642 of them in favoi of the government, and on July 1, 188, 4,432 ciyil suits were pending to which the, United States were a party, There were terminated during the 'ast year .7,792 criminal .prosecutions under the customs, ioternal revenue, post-ofSce, election, civil rights,, natu ralization, intercourse aud pension laws, beside miscellaneous. There were pending July 1, 1883, 5,722 criminal prosecutions " The attorney-general recommends the re enactment .at section 14 of th$ act approved August 16, 1856, pro vidirjg that United States attorneys may , appoint substitute attorneys in certain cases to attend to the duties of the office when they cannot bo attend themselves, to be paid only the regular fees of the United States attorneys. He recommends it on the score of ecoiouiy. He suggests that the pay of the district attorneys for New .Mexico and Arizona should be increased to the maximum, $6,000 per annum. He al$o recommends that not more than Jof witnesses, except in capital cases', anouid De allowed to be summoned at the government expeuse for defeud.uils who swear that they caunot ,pay wit ness fees. He thinks that the fees of witnesses and jurors in the territories should be increased. He recommends an increase in the numoef -.ofUerrito kill judges, special appropiatoin for the ' Utah judiciary, the making the maximum compensation of the clerks of the United States courts uiiform, aud that the emolument returns of at torneys,, marshals an 1 clerks be settled for the fiscal year instead of as now by the calendar year. ;lle suggesu curing defects in the present system relating to funds paid into courts, and addi uonat legislation 10 protect me ex ecutive civil oflicers of the govern ment in the performance of their duties tie suggests that ail accounts of chief supervisor of elections rhould be taxed in open court under the inspection and examination ot tne district attorney. and forwarded to tne proper depart ment for fnrther examination and re duction if deemed advisable and nec esary. . He recommends that outgoing marshals 6e required to tarn oyer to their successors in omce all unfinished business of every kind in their hands at the qualification of their successors He recommends the amendment of the fee bill to pay their deputies not less than nail tiieis net earning, and also recommends mating the salaries of court officers a fixed one instead ot lees. He revises at length the criminal procedure of the law, and recommends llatlne old style rer base and pleo naetic style ot prenarior indictmenu be changed to one more intelligible aoa more m couso nance who tne com moo seoae of the age. He thinks it desirable Uat the pleadiors aaav b simplified, a uoilorss system of chai- itoges provided, and the trials shorn of the. technical objections and nuni brteas dilatory motions that can now be interposed to.revnt a speedy trial npou the ment. He - aacntions the anomalous coaditioa of the United State uoaru ia the Dwtrict of Ooiuaa bia, where the qtutlioe, whether acrim ioal has the rigatof making ten or four challenge of jurora.

Urn t Ma Uat sectkM of u re tutttea he so asieaied astoa i ford the postoffice and other depart ments protection against perjury. He devotes considerable space to the jury system of the District of Co lumbia He refers to the large number of people virtually living here, but n'.vir.c a constructive resiaence else where, as a. fact that militates against the jury system in the district. He ttiiuus the same justice should not be assigned more tbanonca in seven year! to the criminal court. The small num ber of persons selected as candidates from whom tne jurors are to be selec ted, arising from the vast number of those who are exempt, renders it nee csary to draw nearly one half of the paueis from taliamen. He comments J on the subject ot "jury fixing" in the district, which; he says, is alleged to be alarmingly prevalent. He speaks oi those crimes which are offenses against tbel IJnited Stales, and says that when a crime has been committed in the district against the United States government by a government official justice has too frequently been denied the government. A perse n in the em ployment of the government who be trays his public trust commits a crime against the United States. When that crime is perpetrated within the district, past experience proves that he should be tried before a jury other than that engaged in the trial of local crimes committed in the district. To remedyf his defect lot the law, he sub mits that the desired end might be at tained by extending (in such form and under such limitations as may bead visabte) the jurisdiction of the United States circuit and district courts for thejudicial district oflaaryland so as to include tne cognizance oi crimes committed in th. Dis tret of Jolumbia. By this the circuit and district courts of that judicial district would have original jurisdiction over all crimes committed in the District of Columbia wirch are offenses agains. the general laws of the United btates, and their jurisdifitiou would be concurrent with that of the courts iu the District of Columbia, So thah. the prosecutions and trials could be proceeded with in either court. The advantages to bervderived are that. vher the trials take place in the circuh or district court in Mary land, the jury would be drawn in the manner ujw prescribed ty law, from the people of the entire state of Mary land, and the chances of obtaining an impartial, jury would be greatly in creased. In conclusion, he recommends fire proof ..protection for the records of his omce. ChnlunerN vs. Planning. In answer to Chalmers' notice of contest, Mr. Manning said : "I admit that the inspectors and cierKs oi tne several election precincts did certify to the county commission ers of cSectioa in their respective coun ties that ynu received a. majority of the votes cas', and I further admit that the 1,472 votes which the commissioners of Tat e county returned as cast for J.

Las; jar's cotton crop was 7.000.0C0 bale-', te largest yet record, d.- But the cotton crop is not more than a fourth iu value of our a'gricu I tu'al products. Every year we draw less ind less or. the north for food supplies A few jevs ago the southerner never tasted fine lrui, ber ries, grapes, except as they were brought from the north, at $n appall ing cost. Now Tennessee alone sells millions of dollars worth of peaches, berries, grape, fine bteves, spring lambs and other luscious food to Cin cinnati, , Chicago, ew York, Balti more and other northern centres of consumption. From the vicinity , of Chattanooga obout $15,000 worth of fruits or berries were sent north during tbe past spring aud summer, aud the season was. cone the best. The local grain trade of Chattanooga has grown from a few thousand bushels just after the war, to over a round million bush els 'in 1883, while the foreign grain trade has almost disappeared. ' A few years ago a thousand of mules and horses were shipped to the cotton belt from Kentucky, Ohio! - Indiana and Other northern states. This trade has almost ceased. In a word the south, in the matter of food supplies and stock, is practically independent. What our farmers, farmers, fruiters, garden ers ana stock breeders sea will fully pay for all the section buys from be yond its borders, excepting, of course, dry goods and small groceries. Dis- cussiog this' topic the Courier Journal closes an admirably expressed article as follow: ; The fine profits made by, the tobacco raisers in Kentucky, stock raisers in Tennessee and elsewhere, by the orange growers in Florida, fruit growers in Georia, and the truck" farmers all over the south indicate in an unmistakable mauneJ the yalue of a diversified agri culture, a diversification, which comes in obedience to natural law?, aadwhich increases rather than impairs the great leading staphs. Another change lias taken place in the south little noted by superficial observers: It is the increase in the numbers oi northern farmers who are coming south, attracted by the cheap lands. The foreign iuimigrtits prefer the north and west, knowing little of the couth. This makes a greater de mand for laud there and advances the price. A northern tanner understands he can sell his farm for Iky or seventy five dollars, go south where the ciimate is more geuial, and ptrytea acres for one. This tendency is each year be coming more marked, and ia this way tbe soathern states get their propor tions of the immigration wve. It is a change the full value of which is ap preciated ouly by those vio have had some cause to study if. The tffect u the south is marktd.
