The Daily Review, JOSH. T. JAMES, Editor & Prop. WILMIGTONi N. C FKMAY. DtCEMUEK 5. 18,9. liNTEKKD AT THE 1'OSTOTFtCK, AT Wilmington, X. C, aj Skcond-Class Matte r.1 ' VEhvs AiL) Kt,VlE The new Pullman palace earn are very luxurious, costing each $15,000. Ordi nary passenger cars cost $4,000; draw ingroom cars, $8,000; mail and baggage car, 82,000; box can, $400. A man at Dutch Flat, Cal., picked np a rock the other day to throw at a cow. The weight of it attracted his attention, and on examination it wai found to eon tain over a hundred dollars in gold. Prince Bismarck gets low, and says that not all pis great doings have .made himself and others any the happier; and oldjSarah, Duchefs of Marlborough, who Is gorged with gold and weighted down with honors, recently wrote of berselt to Lvly M.irv Wortley Montagae as & moBt rniberable being A St. Louis boy was delighted when a fine. Bix-bladed knife dropped down to him appa-entiy frona the sky. Wrapped anuml it 'as h ji iper on which was writ ti i. 'We iii f.sttned in the dome; for ! a veu'rt bnkt bHp us cut.' Two girls bad assembled to- the top of the pourt house, and closed a self locking door. A w.Ki stt.rj is current in Owingsville, Ky., of a man 11 -ating over tb place in the air. fct'Vtral pt-i.vmis declare tbat they saw him. A woman describes hiiu- as makingJ extravagant gesture? awhile, and then ris ing out of sLjht. ' One theory is that be was Wise, the mining ivo: aut ; that he had let hinuHi down by a rope fioni bis bajloon, which the siaitU'd spectators failed to see, in the hope of tlieethig a lauding. Samuel Shook got married at Ilillsboro, Oui, ami took hl3 briJe lo the home that he ihad'pn pared. Two rowdies of the neighbourhood, di-fcirii.g to play what they conc.'ived to he a good j jke on the hus band, broke jtiti iho house that night while he was as lot' p, and carried cfl' the wits, frigh'en iiig hr into silence -by bran dishing pH'o, 8. 'They hid her for three dys,anfl o ., r-tunuil her to the anxious Mr. Shook. They su(i they, nieaut no liurin, but he lefwses to regaid the exploit "as lun, and has h id tiiciu arrested. ' . The quantity of ail vtr obtained in 1878 from British mir.es was 397,471 ounces, and in st of the precious metal was fouud in ccinbh.ai i.ii with lead. The total vahn of tin s'Uar thm obuiaed ia the year in question wa estimated at 88. 20G I0i GJ. hi thy game year the gold found in British mines, weighed 702 ounces 10 hvti. 8 grs., and; estimated to be of the viiae of 2,848 -15a. 2 i. Nearly all tlis British goldnamely,' a fraction o?er C'J7 ounct s .vas procured in Wales. A wot?i ai ci;l;in herself the Qieen of Cure is doing au enonaous business in .the-Southwest, particularly anions? the eroes. Shu rides in a discarded circus hariot, wearing velvet and spansles. and accompanied by a band of music.' She has ihe reputation among the credulous of pot-scbsing miruculous powers of heal i g, and muhitudtfs 11 ck to her wherever s'legoes. She makes no charge for her s.nviceV, buts .ils vat quantities of a lin- merit, to which he ascribes marvellous curative qualities. , During the procrssba on Lord Mayor's Day a large sfpue was thrown into the carriage of the retiring L rd Mayor. A similar attention was once paid to George III. when going to open Parliament, and he picked up the tone and presented it to tbe Master of the flor.-e, slated oppo sir as a proof of the affection of his sub jects. Ti.e royal Sta te carriage is pro vided with -bullet-proof shutters, which cui be adjutted by a spring; but the King whose' courage was never question ed, would not use them '. The population of the globe may be roughly assumed at 1,421,000,000, divid el thus: Europe, 309,000,000; Asia, 8M.000.000; Africa, 199.000,000; Ocean i;a, 4.000,000; America, 85 000,000. It his ben calculated from the mortality tables if known countries that the annualH number of deaths throughout the world ia 35,003,350, or that, in other words, 97,793 peras die every day. On the other hand, the balance of population is more than kept up by births at the rate of 104,800 per day. Seventy new lives are nsheied in every minute of the twen- tyfour hours. Persons apparently in connection with tne trerman uovernment repeat in the German press that the Russian troops stationed in Poland and Lithuania have within the fast few months been increased to something like 500,000 men . One half of these are stationed in the kingdom of Poland, taking iu flank the provinces of East Prussia, West Prussia, Silesia, and Posenf theother half being distributed between Riga and Kieff. According to the Afolva. the leading financial paper of Russia, the last Easts n campaign cost the Cz ir 1,500,000 000 roubles and 200, 000 livres. Tnis is neirly twice as much as hail been hitherto assumed, THE COLOIIED EXODUS. i The exodus of the colored people has now begun in North Carolina, and Iodi ana is the Eldorado. An invoico of two hundred and twenty-five of i the poor, de luded beings a-ived in I Washington, P. Mi ! 0 , a few days since en route to this new home. They wew prjncipaily from Le noir county, in this State; and 'a majority of them bad xpended all tbeirj means when they had reached the Capitol; These were of course obliged to remain, depend ing upon the charity of the citizens to keep them from actual starvation. About 1, 00 of thrm started for this ! newly found promised land J but jot no further than Goldsboro when their funds becam Mhansted and thevi could not continue ! ( the journey. Th se who reachei Washington were 6ii'tj ctcd to the interviewing process by a 1'oat reporter, and )f course they had a readv-made tale of outrage to justify their ' i i removal from North Carolina I But, among j . i I i i other things, it was ascertained that they had been promised a bonus ojf ' lorty dol lars, their expenses paid jto Indiana and s :venty-five cents a day guaranteed them as wages during the winter months and un til they can make regular 'arrangements for the next year's labor. M It is hoped by thej Republican leaders in the movement that this exodus may be kept up until enough are colonized in Indiana to assure that State to theRepub licans in the election next fall, j It may prove successful, though we very much doubt it. But, one thing is assured by the moYement and that is one which should receive the most earnest and em phatic protest of every philanthropist in the country which is, that the colored people, who are madei the designing political leaders, dupes of these will be obliged to endure unto'd and unutterable cruelty and suffering They are goiDg to'a climate to which they are altogether unused and unsuited, and to a sort of labor with which they' jave no acquaintance, what ever. Many of them are inherently lazy and while such may manage to exist, after a fashion, in North Carolina, in In diana work is the only remedy for star vation. NOT THAT SOR'11 OF A TAX. The proposition of Mr. Hayes; and Mr. Sherman to impose a tax on tea and j 1 . ! coffee, ways the Washington jos, ia not the least remarkable! of their numerous unpopular suggestions, for iust condemnation It is coming in h all journals, except those so thoroughly cmmitted to the Administration as to bave no views of their own. Bitter greeting it gets from denunciation is the many Republicans in the House, and there j arj Republican Senators who do not hesitate to character ize it as unwi3e and impolitic. It is a universally admitted principle of taxation that no tax (shall be laid on the necessaries of life so i course can be avoided 1 rig ' as such a is only in great emergencies tbat any government is justi tied in -imposing an import j duty on articles of universal consumption. So long as the needful revenues can be raised by the taxation of luxuries they are to bear the burden, i As a matter of course the Post would prefel" free full sense of the term, but trade, in the! as that is no attainable at present, si must be content with the advocacy of justice in the mat ter of duties. And there would be neithefjustice nor expediency in carryin into efiect the suggestion of Messrs. Uaycs and Sherman relative to these bev erages of the poor these "drinks that cheer.' but do not inebriate.' - j mere is no prerense oi au emergency calling for unusual measures, no pretense of an emergency of a: yf kind. The rev enues arc ample for ah purposes Last year we had an exq.ss of six millions of receipts over expej ditures and Mr. Sherman estimates that the revenues for the current year will exceed expenditures by 11,000,000. Where, j then is the necessity for imposing an additional bui den oh the poor? They are jalready load el with more than their share of the gen eral contribution to the National lex chequer. Why increase the cost of tea and coffee when, according to Mr. Sher r man, we are to have $11,000,000 more of revenue than the sum total of ex penses? ' j The answer to this inquiry is that Mr. Hayes and his Cabinet desire to wipe out the National debt more rapidly than will be'pcssible on the existing basis of in cline and outlay. Now,, we1 are not among those political economists who look upon debt.either National or personal as a blessing; but we well j understand that a remedy may be i worse than tL evil fcr which 'it is !pre3cribedj The taxpayers of the United' States are not in such a hurry to cancel our public debt as te approve of extraordinary and op pressive methods of raising money (for that purpose. The present generation has borne immense hardens. It will give to posterity a magnificent inheritance, ?en if the estate shall be incumbered with comparatively insignificant debt. The country would have thought leas un kindly of Messrs. Hayes and Sherman if instead of this strange proposition, they ' had sent in a list of worthless offices t be abolished as a means of increasing the net income. A KILKKNAlf CAT FlGUT. 'i Toe ' disorder and demoralization in the Democratic ranks," is not so much of boom foj the Ridicals after all. The term al this time will apply more readily to the Rej ublicans than the Democrats. They are divided and tbat, too, as a que.-- t on which allows of much latitude on either side. Mr. Haves assumes to be a financier and so makes such suggestions in his message a arouses the re and the antagonisms of John Sherman and bis friends. A kilkenny cat fight is the re sult and the disordered" and Jemoral ized ' Democrats, who are, we hope, willing to let the money question settle jtself this session, are quiet but not dis Interested spectators of the fun. "When rogues fall out honest men will get their clues," and this is the principle on which the Democrats are willing to stand by and cry, "hands off." As the Wash ngton Post so pertinently says: I The Democrats, controlling Congress, are possessed of the only power that exists to shape legislation. VYitn reierence 10 really important matters this authority must be exerted. Ia the present instance, however, it is well to allow the Repu licans in both blouse and Senate to make the first move in response to the financial recommendations ot the Administration. The Democratic policy on this subject ia to simply observe the statu quo Former hard money and soft money men are United in the belief that further tinkering with the currency is a proceeding to be frowneoVupon and deprived of all encour agement. For them to permit themsel ves to be divided again woul 1 be to com mit a grave; blunder. Tna Republicans should be allowed to attend exclusively to tne suggestions of the de facto Presi dent and becret ry of the Treasury. There is ho cUl for Democratic interler ence. A grand fight is in progress in the Republican ranks. The Democrats should content themselves with looking on. It will cost them nothiiag to do this If they take a hand in the disturbance they are more than likely financial greif. to come to For the Review. The Democratic Party. Mr. Editor: (The circumstanc33 and (rials of life are the tests of what stuff men and parties are made. Iu all theupsand downs of parties and amid all the changes and vicissitudes of the last two decades and longer, the old Wil mington Journal has steadily main tained that uncompromising Demo cratic orthodoxy, that eheda such a bright halo and political radiance around its honored nam a and history. And now, when a temporary, and only a temporary, cloud baa arisen across the Democratic horizon, you? own continuous and outspoken appealsand warnings to Democrats not to waver nor to falter in Democratic deyotion, show anew that you are the worthy and! valiant successor of the Fuhons A. L. Pfica, Joseph A Engelhard and William L Saunders in the able and unfaltering support you are giving to Demoora:io niucp'e Th mantle tbat was so truly aud nobly worn by these former Editors pf the paper that you have since and! are now run ning, has fallen upon firm and consis teBt Democratic'shonldera in the per son of youself.Tnese remarket are now aaade in simple justice to yon because .some Democratic papers, and a few Democrats, are now and then to be seen, of late, to be either inclined to yield somewhat to what is called the Grant boom in the South, or else are performing suoh a wishyitwashy course in the perils tbat now surrouna us as cannot but damage the Democratic party. The Democratic party of North Carolina ia with you in your bold denunciations' of Qrantism, and there never was a time when true Democrats should be more decided than no vr in resisting the intrigues and encroaoh- m nts upon the Scu h cf all those who are seeking to disintegrate the Dauo oracy of the South by praises , of Grant Any Democrat who now allows him self to be seduoed into the support of Grant as the next President, is doubly dangerous and injurious to our party and aa a Southern man licks the hands of his oppressor. As an American citizen the South is solid and will be solid in feeling for and treating him with . all proper respect, but the South is, and will be, equally solid cud patriotic , in voting against bim or any other Republican, as a candidate for the Presidency.! Those memorab'e words of bis "Let us have peace, are still ringing' in the ears of the Southern people as they remember the oppressions and injustice, and burn ing wrongs of his Radical adminis tration of eight cruel years to our em poveriehed people of the South. All efforts now to woo and win their sup port of him for President will not on lybe futile but will mere certainly make the South solid against him. ' An Old Subscribes. Dec. 4th, ,79.
