DIFFERENCES IN PRICES.

PAREL IN 1864 AJJD 1878.

Front the Pittsburg Commercial-Gazette. Some time ago we gave figures showing the differences in prices of various articles of pcovisons, when "money wa§ plenty and times were good," compared with the cost of the same articles now. Every man and woman could appreciate the force of these figures, because they tallied exactly with the practical knowledge of every one who bought provisions Below we append a comparative price-list of' at tides to wear, furnished to the Philadelphia North-American by one of the largest dry-goods houses in the country, ana which may be relied upon as accurate

Those who clamor for inflation, which means higher prices for everything else as well as labor, should study these figures. Just think of it. There is an average reduction in the cost of these articles of from eighty to ninety per cent It took fifty cents to buy one yard of calico in 1864. Now eight yards, or enough for a dress, can be had for the same money. And 60 all through the list. Now the tact to be lemembered by the inflationists 16, that wages go up slowly, while every article of commerce can be marked up each day and once an era of inflation it entered upon, no one can tell when the end may come. It would not come short of universa. distress and bankruptcy—even worse than the hard times through which we have just passed. If the laborer can buy to-day only double the quantity of pro vision^ and clothing compared with the prices of 1S68, he is 6till the gainer direct iy—and will gain largely in an indirect way, because the business of the country is now conducted on a healthy basis, and not the result of wild and ruinous specu lation. It is to the interest of all, rich and poor alike, to stick to honest money and good times will surely come, and come to stav.

HON. ROBERT SMALLS, ex-Congress man from South Carolina, has been con yicted of bribe taking and sentenced to three year6 in the penitentiary. Radical papers, of bloody 6hirt proclivities, de clare it to be perfectly outrageous to convict one of their Congressmen of such a crime.

VERMONT is nothing if not ccnsistent in its opinions. The public of that virtuous commonwealth are opposed to lotteries. Years ago they were forbidden by statute law. But while they were prohibited church fairs continued to flourish and fatten on raffles. This last device ha* now been prevented by a special en* actment and thus gambling bns been killed in the last ditch.

GoRTScHAKOFfr, the Bismarck of Russia, is a smoother spoken man than his karsh and yoly consonant name would seem to indicate. Being asked by a disciple the secret of his success, he returned an answer worthy of Terre Haute's Chesterfieia. He said: "Be civil to everybody. Ignore casual affronts, reciprocate courtesies. Maintain your independence before the great, and be generous and just to those who are •beneath you in rank and fortune."

WHEN tbe Washington correspondent of a Western paper wrote to his Journal that more Congressmen than usual were

mjfk

this reason avoiding the high-priced hotels and seeking "cheaper accommodations," the paper in question rushed into double heads and cited the facts mentiontioned as an excmple of the prevalence of healthful sentiments of economy and a return to Republican simplicity. It now transpires, however, that' the cause for this beautiful economy is to be attributed to the cost of elections, which, according to the congressional authority from which the information came, was much greater last fall than formerly. Retrenchment in board bills was, therefore, an absolute neccessity, in order to save money wherewith to meet campaign assessments.

THE grand assumption of Blaine in his late attack on the south wa» that the blacks were and always must be Republicans. It was alBO his grand mistake. The intelligent tax payers have done more than bulldoze* the negroes they have reasoned with them and brought them to a saving belief in the doctrine that the best interests of that distracted scction could be subserved by intrusting the government to those born and bred on the soil which pays the bill?, rather than to cavaliers having a residence elsewhere and going thither as argonauts on a golden fleecing voyage. A minority that can bulldoze majority has brain power sufficient to convince and control by reason that same majority. How far the Senator from Maine reckoned without his ho6t when he declared that all the negroes were Republicans, is evidenced by a letter sent to the New York Herald by Samuel R. Cox. He is a prominent colored citizen of Charleston, S. C., and he very vigorously defends the Democracy of His State from the attacks made upon it in the Senate. The concluding portion of his letter is as follows:

Why, sir, the peace and quietness now existing among us should be sufficient evidence to silence the tales 6ent north by those disappointed politicians who know their occupations are gone tremblingly hope that something turn up to benefit them.

SAMUEL R. COX.

THE INTELLECTUAL DEVELOPMENT OF ALECK. From the N. Y. World.

Alexander Brown, who is better described as a colored combinat'on than a single negro, is now serving out a tenday's sentence in the jefterson Market Pjison. He claims to be a cousin of "Blind Tom," and if his claim be just the common ancestor ot both from whom they inherit their singular traits must have been a highly interesting being. His talents ars more startlingly developed in "Whistling Aleck" than in "Blind Tom," for while the latter can express the music that is in his soul only through the medium of a piano-forte, which is a manufactured article, the former can con vert the raw material ot the plastic organs with which nature has endowed him into any instrument at will. Now he is a fiddle,now a banjo and anon a 6et of bagpipes. Not content with this wide field in which to exert his powers, he creeps still closer to the heart of nature he appears as a bloodhound* wilh deep-throat-ed bay, and again, dividing himself ac-cording-to the advice given by Mr. Bronson A lcott to persons about to approach the Or.e, which is nature herself, self from himself he frees and becomes a ca and a dog in tne throes of battle. Showing yet further his matchless 6elf-contro he i*6ues from the lower world and from music itself into the broad possibilities ot mere noise and goes off as a steamwhistle, a paddle-wheel or a gong and indeed, when Messrs. Jarrett & Palmer put "Uncle Tom's Cabin" on the stage awhile age "Whistling Aleck" spared those gentlemen the necessity of bringing a real steamboat on the scene—which might have been inconvenient—and startled the citizens with strange alarms as from an unearthly whistle such as for power and volume was never heard on the Red River. Compared with such a production of unassisted nature as this, "Blind Tom" is hardly worth thinking about as a phenomenon. The resources of the one are not within himself, and deprived of his proper environment, like an axolotl or a tadpole he would never have developed into anything higher "Whistling Aleck," on the other hand, is a most beautiful specimen of tMe wilful outburst of internal power under difficul ties, and a really fine case of specialize tion of functions, for his lungs, larynx and epiglottis take any form at the bid ding of his will, and 'doubtless could so be trained a6 to enable them to seem to explode like a park of artillery or to re reverberate like thunder among the hills.

I know that a federal officer is supposed to be a gentleman. If the characters of many of the appointments in this section were realized by the northern people the prosecutsons for perjury would not cail forth one single wail of sympathy. The opinion of a colored man is this, that if the north would leave the south to manage its own local affairs, it would be better tor all parties cocerned. The south will never again be dominated by unscrupulous whites and ignorant blacks. If the north now sees thaf. an error has been committed ia forcing unlimited suffrage the remedy is not to be found in denouncing the whites of the south. The colored people of this state, outside of the politicians and their parasites, are satisfied with Democratic rule they desire peaceful relations with those with whom they live, and, therefore it is cruelty to get up an excitement on their account that will not benefit, but injure them.

showing off his multitudinous powers of yotce and mimicry, and upon going out doors was naturally followed by a crowd ot Youngsters bent upon tormenting nim and thoughtless of the fact that at any moment he might change into a tremendous explosion and blow them all to atoms. He appealed to a policeman fjr protection, and received instead a cutting rebuff in the pride of his hurdy-gurdy and steam-whistle Foul he then, as the officer afterwards :Cported to his sergeant, "used intimidating language," and was at onee collared and taken to the police station, Next morning, on an absurd charge of intoxication, he was consigned to prison for ten days.

Plainly his fate was due to the sluggishness of his intellect, since, possessed as he was of other powers of intimidation than mere winged words, he could have put the officer to flight or rendered him a limp and helpless bundle of trousers, coat, cap and club cowering on the ground and incapable of motion. Instead of speaking at all to the minion of the law he should suddenly have burst Out like a brass band, the Musicians of Bremen, a siren, a fog-whistle, a can of dj namite, a megaphone, a blood-hound aodthe Highand bagpipes all rolled into one. No policeman could have stood his ground in the face of such a display of vocal uproariousnebs, and, retreating, while still keeping up his music till it died away in the distance, "Whistling Aleck" could have gone scot-free and the officer would now be languishing in Bellevue Hospital. It is intellect that the man needs, and le' us hope that he will take the hint here given and when he emerges from limbo use not intimidating language to an officer when powers so much more effective are his unique possession.

MRS. JENKS.

TO TUB FRONT AGAIN—WITH RAPS EOR REPUBLICANS AND THRUSTS AT DEMOCRATS.

New Orleans, Dect^th, 1878.

To Editor of The Modern Argo Judging from the articles in The Argo, it is nrtorc of a literary than a political or» gan, but with your permission I will refer to Louisiana affairs. Do you wish me to reiterate a fact known to the country at large, viz That the Republican party is dead in Louisiana, without a hope of its future resurrection. The Republicans instead of making nominations and fighting under our own banner, tven though certain of defeat, "fused" with the Nationals, endorsing thtir nominees, who were formerly deemed very good Democrats. By 60 doing the Republicans lost their identity and gained nothing. Even if our so-called party leaders here had had the moral courage to inaugurate a campaign with zeal, or the shadow ot a hope of success they dared not make a ^invass in the interior, owing to "our peaceful law-abiding citizens" dislike to being bored by hearing of Republican meetings. You are doubtlet-s aware that our people have such a forcible style of demonstrating thoir displeasure that the Republicans deemed it conducive to their health and well-being to "keep quiet," at a safe distance, as each day for a time previous to the election, brought accounts of assassinations and open murders of Republicans, in the county parishes.

I do not coticur in tike opinion* ^expressed by many leading Republicans north, that it is only the effect of his Excellency, the President's pacification pol icy. They seem to ignore the lact that the same state of affairs existed here, prior to the election of 1S76. Then, as iiow American citizens, having Republican sentiments, were, and are, not pre sunied to have political rights the Democrat* consider themselves bound to respect.

The intentions of the President were undoubtedly good and patriotic, but he understood not well the elements he sought to propitate. The results of the late election in the south demoustrate the utter fallacy of the so-called "south ern policy." 'TM said that a "political mistake is equal to a crime," but it is not yet too late to retrieve the past in a measure, if our leaders will only be firm and emulate the Democrats in being aggressive. The Republican party in the south might yet be unit in the political scale, instead of :he cipher it now is. The constitution has been violated, therefore resistance such yiolation becomes a just and imperative duty.

How is the noble, but politically reprehensible actions of the President in regard to the so called southern policy appreciated by those whom it ino6t benefitted? Have the pledges of Messrs. Hampton and Nichols, for the "maintainanceoflawand order," beefi fulfilled? Is the reign of lawlessness and terror, the freedom of the bullet instead of the ballot, the deeds of atrocity tha* would appall even savages, their definitions of "law and order?" fudging from events during the past few weeks it would seem so. For instance an imaginary plot is conveniently discovered, (always in largely Republican districts.) Then a few men, (leaders among their fellows,) are taken out and shot, or hung. Then comes a dispatch announcing the fact and adding, "all is quiet." They forget to mention it is the puiet of the grave, and death of those who died for principle and liberty. The perfumed laden breezes of the "Sunny South" sigh over many an unknown hero, and political martyr, who stoically met his fate, or whose souls went out in their last despairing cry for mercy, and whose bones to-day are bleaching in the lonelv woods, and dreary swamps of Louisiana, Mississippi, and South Caro lina. That such a state of affairs exist* is a stain on the escutcheon of the nation Doubtless in the near future Republicans will be expected to bend the knee and re-
