A QUESTION ANSWERED.
A resident of New York city, doing
business on Wall street, recently
wrote to Gen. Beauregard, stating
that certain gentlemen of his ac uain
tance contemplated engaging in en
terprises in the South, possibly in
Louisiana, and asking what kind of
treatment they would meet with.
He also stated that in politics they
were Republicans, but not politicians
in the ordinary acceptation of the
term nor office seekers. Gen. Beau
regard replied as follows:
New Orleans, Nov. 14.
Mr. E. S. Marsh, 61 Wall Street, Neiu
York City:
My Dear Sir Your favor of the
7th instant has been received, but
press of business prevented me from
answering sooner. You can assure
your friends that if they come here
on "business," and to assist in de
veloping the commerce and resources
of our country Shey will be cordially
welcomed, whether Republicans or
Democrats, and will be at full liberty
to vote as they please.
In society, they will be treated ac
cording to their personal merits.
At this time, eighteen years after
the war, only the worst class of poli
ticians, North and South, are inclined
to keep alive the bad feelings engen
dered by that war.
The people of the South, especially
of Louisiana, want the capital and
enterprise of the North to come here
and assist in rebuilding our ruined
homes and restore prosperity among
us. I am, yours truly,
G. T. Beauregard.
We publish this reply because while
it is intended to speak for Louisiana,
it applies to any and all sections in
the South. It is a little remarkable
that after a lapse of eighteen years an
intelligent citizen of the North, who
reads the papers of the day, should
find it necessary to ask such a ques
tion, when the fact is there is no
Southern State where Northern men
are not located and where Northern
capital is not invested, and these peo
ple are just as well treated and their
investments just as safe as they would
be in any State north of the Potomac,
while they enjoy without restraint
every right and privilege belonging to
them as citi ens and as deserving
members of society.
It is estimated that there are now
invested in Southern enterprises $400,-
000,800 of Northern capital, which
sum is constantly being increased.
and there is no complaint made by
the investors of proscription of any
kind. Facts like these give emphatic
answer and speak louder than words.
The effort has been continued, as
Gen. Beauregard says, by a bad set
of politicians to keep up sectional
strife and place the South in a false
attitude, and just at this time the
defeated boss Mahone and his tribe in
Virginia, backed by the extreme
Republican partisan papers in the
North, are raising the howl which
had been raised so often and so often
died out, about proscription and law
lessness in the South, but the motive
of this is so well understood by intel
ligent people that it will not influence
or deceive anyone. It is all intended
for campaign thunder and will be so
understood by people with sense
enough lo read both sides and form
their own opinions.
As a matter 01 tact tne ooutnern
people don't care a fig for the political
opinions of any man who comes
South to engage in business. While
they would prefer that every citizen,
hail from where he may, would vole
the Democratic ticket, because in the
success of the Democratic party is
the safety and welfare of the South,
they feel that in time all these people
who come to engage in busiuess will
discover tneir true interests ana oe
found voting with them in the effort
to maintain good government. In
everj locality in the South where
Northern men are located, will te
found men who in the North voted
the Republican ticket, and did so when
they first came tfouth, but who after
a short experience, and an insight
into the true inwardness of political
managers and parties, voted and con
tinue to vote, the Democratic ticket.
They do so because they consider it
to their interests to do so.
There is no place m all this broad
Southland where the Northern man
cannot live and meet with all the
kind treatment, respect and courtesy
that he can anywhere, as his merits
entitle him to. A sensible man should
expect no more.
An Illinois man has invented a fur

unsatisfactory in use.

The Philadelphia Pr-ss wants the
Republican National Convention to

Within the last eighty y ears con
gress has spent more than $100,000,

The most congenial occupation of
Mahone and his organs now seems to
be in defaming the State which they
could not rule.
Whatever action congress may take
on the internal revenue taxes the
present machinery for collecting them
must go. The tax is bad enough but
the machinery is worse.
There was a rumor that Mahone in
tended to emigrate to Mexico, but
the indications are that he will re
main and try to make a Mexico out
of Virginia.
Pere Hyacinthe was taken sudden
ly and unaccountably ill in New York,

and his wife intimates that it is now
uncertain whether he will lecture at
all.
A slow case of awakened conscience

and contained a number of State
bank bills, now worthless, and also a
number of heirlooms highly prized.
A-
EPUBLICAN VIEW
What Gen. Wickham, an Old Republi
can, Says About Coalition Intimida
tioa
Richmond, Va . Nov. 18. A. W.
Jones, who was the coalition candi
date for the Senate from the Hanover
and Caroline district, has served a
notice of contest upon Gen. Wick
ham. He alleges that the election
was carried by intimidation, ballot
box stuffing and use of whisky. Gen.
Wickham has been a Republican ever
since the war between the States
ended. He has been the chairman of
the Republican State committee. He
was in 1880 the chairman of the Vir
ginia delegation to the Chicago con
vention, and a steadfast supporter of
Gen. Grant. He is still a Republican.
Me has published a reply to Jones
notice of contest, in which he pro
nounces the latter s statements base
slanders against his constituents. He
charges that to the great crimes
against humanity itself, in which
Jones has been engaged during his
whole canvass 01 endeavoring to in
cite to a pitch of frenzy the feelings
and prejudices of the colored people
of this district against the white peo
ple amongst whom they live, who are
their best and truest friends, and be -
tween whom and themselves it is ab
solutely essential to the interests of
both that there should be kind and
neighborly feelings and respect and
esteem l e is now adding the crime
against the nation of endeavoring to
incite hostuity on tne part 01 tne
Northern people against the white
people of Virginia, by falsely charging
upon them intimidation of the colored
. 1 1 a 1 . C !
voters wno aesirea to vote ior nun, in
which charge he knows that there is
mo truth whatever, and that in fact
the only intimidation of colored
voters in this district at the late elec
tion was exercised by their own race
upon those w ho wanted to vote for
me irom their kindly feelings for me,
or because they knew me to be a Re
publican."
In conlcuding Gen. Wickham says:
"I esteem the vote given me by the
white people of the counties, in view
of the fact of my being a Republican,
as the highest compliment they could
have paid me as a man, and as a
proper recognition of the propriety,
in the terrible stress in which the
State was placed, of putting in abey
ance our national political differences
until we had reheved the dear old
State of bossism and corrupt rule.
The colored men who had the courage
and manhood to stand by their prin
ciples and convictions and support
me, in the face of the fiercest efforts
to intimidate them, even to the ex
tent of ejecting them from their
church organizations and of setting
their wives against them, have won
my esteem and respect,and have done
more to elevate their raoe in the esti
mation of our people than an army of
coalitionists could ever do. Their
honest support has strengthed my
position and made me far more potent
to bring about good feeling between
the races."
A Peculiar System ol Marriage.
PaU Mali Gazette.
Life in" the Siberian mines is not
such an altogether unmitigated curse
as popular imagination pictures it.
From some of the greatest evils which,
men elsewhere have to suffer, the
convicts in Eastern Siberia are happi
ly delivered. There is indeed mar
riage and giving in marriage, but
there is no courtship, nor need any
man complain that he is ' mate'd to a
savage" cr a shrew. When a pris
oner wishes to get married, all he has
to do is to send in an application to
the overseer, who straightway allots
him a wife Three days probation is
then allowed, and if any incompati
bility of temper seems likely to arise
the man receives twenty-five lashes
and another wife, and so on until he
is contented.
Tennessee's Debt interest.
Nashville, Nov 20. An impres

on the State debt will be paid unless
a majority of the bonds are funded.
The funding board 'announces that
this is a mistake. The interest will
be paid on all bonds funded whatever
the, amount. There is a -misunderstanding
among the bondholders also
that no January interest will be paid
on bonds funded alter January 1st.
Interest will be naid on all hnrtds

NOT EXEMPT.
Au Important Opinion by the United
States Supreme Coart on Railrad
Taxation.
Washington, Nov 20. Among the
decisions banded down yesterday by
the Supreme court was one in the
case No. 765, the Louisville & Nash
ville Railroad company, plaintiff in
error, vs. Manuel Palmer, collector
&c, in error, to the Supreme court of
tne &tate 01 i lorida. The question
presented by this case is whether a
Ime of railroad which was commenc
ed, partly completed and operated by
the Alabama & Florida Rail rod com
pany and which through successive
transfers has finally come into the
hands of the Louisville & Nashville
Railroad company is or is not exempt
from taxation by virtue of an act
passed by the legislature of Florida
m 1855, and known as the internal
improvement act.
Ihis court holds that exemption
from taxation created by the 188th
section of the internal improvement
act of 1855 is in every respect similar
to that which was declared by this
court in the case of Morgan vs Louisi
ana, 93 U. S. 217, to be non assigna
ble, of which exemption therefore did
not pass from the Alabama & Florida
Railroad company to the Pensacola
& Louisville Railroad company, when
the former conveyed to the latter its
road and franchises connected with
and necessary in its construction and
operation. Even, however, if such
exemption had passed to the Pensa
cola & Louisville Railroad company
that corporation would have had no
power to further convey it, so that
the line of railroad in its present
hands is properly liable to State tax
ation, and its present owners cannot
claim immunity on the ground that
the act of 1875 taxing property of all
corporations was an imparement of
the obligation of the contract of 1855.
The decree of the Supreme court of
Florida is affirmed with costs. The
opinion was by Justice Matthews.
Five other railroad corporations in
Florida claim immunity from taxa
tion upon practically the same ground ,
which was assumed in this case.

British Landlordism.
Michael Pavitt.
In England and Wales 4,500 people
own 17,500,000 acres of land; in Scot
land 1,700 own 17,000,000; in Ireland,
1,942 own 12.000,000; that is. 8142 in
dividuals hold as theirs, within these
three countries, 46,500,000 acres of
land. To give a cl arer idea of this
stupendous monopoiv of the earth s
surface, the estates of these 8,142
landlords amount to over 9,000,000
more acres than the entire area or ex
tent of England and Wales put to
gether; or to 6,000,000 over double
the size of Ireland, or 8,000,000 over
twice the extent of Scotland. Assum
ing that this land brings in fifteen
shillings per acre per annum, which
is an under estimate, this small group
of persons receive, in round figures,
an income of 35,000,000 a year, I
need scarcely add, without doing any
work whatever for it.

The figures of the manufactures of
the South may not seem great to a

ist, but that tha South should be able
to make anything like such an ex

how recently that part of the country
was almost exclusively given over to
agriculture, and that almost entirely
in one staple. Many iro furnaces
have lately been closed in Pennsyl

the capital that ran them is reappear

extent of - the revolution that is thus
being accomplished is as yet unap

Cincinnati, November 20. A spe

May's hotel was set on fire by incen

rooms saved themselves by making
ropes of bed clothing and lowering
themselves. All the guests lost every
thing. H. A. Sommers, editor of the

from a window. Chas. Rihn received
dangerous injuries from a falling
