Amo.v t10 charges against Secre
tary CV 3 one McGarrahan, who
asser kat ox ordered the
Qoriii3sioaer ol the Land Office to
face and destroy the record "of
a patent. Thi3 charge ia a very se
rious one, and we cannot believe it
true. Bat the crimination and re
crimination indulged in by the parti
sans of the opposing interest?, im
poses upon Congress the necessity of
a prompt and thorough investigation
of the whole matter. It is each an in
vestigation that President Grant de
sired, and Secretary Cox opposed, and
ia opposing it, the latter must realiz e
that his motives are liable to a con
struction not altogether in accordance
with the high standard of official pa

TriE Shawneetown Mercury speaks
Very encouragingly of ita railroad
prospects. The editor has passed over
the Ht. Louis & Southwestern Road
as fir as Equality. Ho says the ties
are large, and cloiely and evenly
Bpicc J, and the bridging of the very
be3t. The President is confident he
will have the road finished through
Gallatin County by the first of next
January.
The Springfield and Illinois South
eastern is also being put ia good run
ning order. In White County the
grading has been completed as far as
Enfield, which leaves about twelve
miles still to be graded.
Loth these roads are connections
or branches of our Carmi & St. Louis
road, and will contribute largely to
the prosperity of our city when they
are finished.

The Chicago Tribune has been
wretchedly victimiz3d by papers from
whom it expected a vigorous support
in its attempt to organize a new party.
The Tribune anticipated producing
a great eensation in its new role, and
lad off with trumpeta'that was truly
"stunning. But, unfortunately, no
body followed its lead. On the con
trarv. all the rjrominent papera of
both Darties promptly repudiated its
programme, and left it to hold the
bag without the most remote prospect
of eecuring any game. The New
York Evening Post, the Chicago
Times, and even the St. Louis Demo
rrnt. verv decidedly announce that
they propose to remain in their re
eoeotive political parties, and contend
for the - reforms they desire inside

dailies of the country could mould
the people into any political shape
they might desire. The last election
in Cook County, demon3!ratcd, we
think, to the Eatisfaction of every
reasonable man, that while leading
papers may influcnos the peopla and
strengthen parties, they cannot, by
their ipse dixit, tear down an old,
or build up a new, order of things. At
least, the thing cannot be done
very suddealy. Parties grow; they
aro not niacb. They aro the expres
sion of the conclusions of the people
with regard to great questions of gov
ernment coming before them for
S5ttlement. They are the offspring of
gTeat political necessities, rather than
the weapons of scheming men. It is
true the latter very often use parties
to advance their private echemea, tut
it is observable that these schemes
must be in harmony with the great
leading idea which cements the party
together.
The Tribune committed the mistake
of supposing that because Republi
cans differed on the subject of tariff
and revenue, that they would divide
on that issue, regardless of the other
great principles as to which they were
agreed. In other words, the Tribune
proposed to make J a hobby of free
trade, mount it, and charge indiscrim
inately through the ranks of political
friends and foes.break them in pieces,
nd rally the fragments to a new
standard, which it would set up, and
thereby gain much honor for the
"great Radical organ of the North

1 Word tiboat the Hib School.
Editors Journal:
Many of the friends and some of
the officers of our City High School
are imbued with the idea of practical
education, so called, and though it
would be unpopular to take a con
trary view, and wrong to adopt dif
ferent planii as a rule in the govern
ment of our city schools anl selection
of studies, W9 have a fow words to say
regarding the oourso cf study in eth
High School in special oases, or in
the preparation of students for col
lege. As regards the study of the class
ics, outs:d3 of college often, and in
college sometimes, when students are
course, it is not considered -
but is considered the l " i1
tical professor- imf1m'
iil.il., . ., uimot imprao-

. r not it is best to require
study of Greek in college, we shall
not discuss here, as older heads diner.
It is true, however, that among
men capable of judging, the classical
course is considered a better course
than the scientific, for the purpose of
discipline. It is true, also, that in
the Indiana Colleges, and most others
I believe. Greek is an essential in
gredient m the classical course.
The object of this article is to in
quire and find out -whether a young
man in Evansville can prepare for
the elaasical course in college, and.
after completing the course of study
m the High School, enter the Fresh-
xaan class.
It is really an inouiry of interest to
the citizens of Evansville, for though,
at present, money icorsliip is shame
fully overriding mental culture here,
we hope ior better times in future,
and hope that future is cot far
distant.
Under the administration of Mr.
Parsonsv five years ago and previously.
students left the High School and
entered the classical Freshman class
very arditably; but from all the in
formation we can get, it is not so now.
The authority in direct superin
tendence has refused to permit Greek
to ue taxight in the High School, and
his principal reasons ior doing so, we
believe, are that there are but few who
want to- study it, and that few should
not ask. the exclusive attention of the
teachers from the most of the schol
ars for the necessary time.
There is some apparent force in the
objection, as we know that the great
majority of the High School scholars
have no need to study it, and the
Free Schools are established for the
education of the masses who seldom
complete the High School course,
and very seldom go further, and even
in any such view we mention our Freo
Schools with pride, for they ara in
valuable. Another reason is, as our worthy
Superintendent informs us, that he
has mada arrangements with the Pres
idents of Indiana Colleges, for those
who go from the High School to Col
lege, to hring vp their Greek in Col
lege, and thus remedy the matter.
To the first objection we say it
needs only to be taught in tho higher
classes and it only takes halt an hour
Lotli rooms at once, so he must redundant crop of nearly or quite
drop altogether (so far as the reeular ; four million bales will bring down
college advantages are concerned) the ! the aversge price from one hundred
study in which he is behind, and be rand four dollars to sixty-seven dollars
unable to complete a pertect course,
or must nrglect a current Etudy of his
clas3; must drop one cr the other, or
alternate, and to one who ever saw
tho workings of either of the above
principles, no further argument is
necessary.
Other things, however, being equal,
a student who is behind, either in
Greek, Latin, or Mathematics, expe
riences unspeakable difficulties and
irreparable injury, and if he labors
through his college course under these
difficulties, it is because he is a little
above the ordinary Btudent. TheEv
ansville High School should prepare
students to enter college "up" in ev
erything. And we ask of the Trus
tees and Superintendent, to parmit
those who want to study Greek, to do
so, for there i3 no good reason why
they should not. Aloixus.
From a Washington Special.
Senator Trumbull's Position.
Senator Trumbull, who has been
here for several days, talks very freely
with all who approach him on, politi
cal subjects, and does not hesitate to
say that the recent course of the Chi
cago Tribune was adopted without
consultation with him. He disclaims
all intention of disrupting the Repub
lican party or introducing any disor
ganizing elements into its counoils.
He believes that it has within its pres
ent organization every element of suo
cess, and expresses cordial concur
rence in General Grant's policy. He
docs not think it brilliant or calcu
lated to excite enthusiasm, but he
says it will satisfy the people if for no
other reason than it is honest, and is
steadily accomplishing tho reduction
of the public debt, which, after all, is
the great desideratum just now. His
opinion of the revenue reform move
ment is that it is too glittering n its
generalities to withstand the test of
capablo investigation, because he
thinks thepeople are tired of empty
promises without even an attempt at
an explanation of the manner of their
fulfillment.
"The revenue reforms of the Ad
ministration," said he, "are sufficient
to satisfy the people, because they
show economy and honesty; and, as I
said before, the reduction of the debt
proves capacity for all required at
present. The Civil S2rvice bill, in
troduced by me at the last session, is
tho one thing needful, and it is re
quired more as a measure to prevent
politioal corruption than anything
else. If you free the Executive De
partments from the outside pressure
now brought to bear on then by
Congressmen to secure appointments,
you will have better officers in subarr-i
dinate places, and you will give
greasmen moro timg t3 mnd i ' .a
legitimatfj duties as Icsisuto"' - their

From the Boston Journal
The United Siates have no occasion
to dread the rivalry ot anv nation in
cotton, for nature favors the. culture
in the United States,
The clouds rolling iip from the Gulf
of Mexico dispense their moisture
during the spring and summer. A
dry fall ripens and opens the balb,
and rivers rising in the spring and
winter bear the crop to market,, while
the contour of the country is remark
ably favorable to railways.
In India, our chief rival, the climate
is too dry for the cotton, and an acre
of land in our Southern States yields
three-fold the amount of cotton pro
duced by an acre in India, and each
pound of the product in America is
worth a third more than the same
weight of India cotton, from the length
of the staple,
Brazil might compete, but its sugar
and coffee make better returns than
cotton. Its product of coffee doubles
once in five to seven years.
Egypt has competed during the war
of secession, but there the rich allu
vium watered by the Nile yields an
nually three crops, and sometimes
four crops, of maize, which is moro
profitable than a single crop of cotton.
Our country has it in its power to
regulate, control and determine the
price of this great staple.
It may be for the interest of our
manufacturers to keep down its price,
for the consumption of their fabrics
and their profits may be stimulated
by low prices, but the country as a
whole is benefited by a full price, for
it exports from two-thirds to three
i fourths of it3 product, and it serves to
liquidate our debt to foreign nations
and to prevent the exportation of our
gold.
Let us regard it, not from the stand
point of the mill owner, but from the
standpoint of the nation.
The nation again advances to its
claims to be the chief producer of
cotton.
m Before the war its average produc
tion had risen to three millions and a
half of bales. In 18(39. with free labor,
it yielded three million one hundred

"With the close of the war came a
collapse. China and Japan ceased at
once to ship, and India gradually re
duced her exports to Europe and re
sumed shipments to China.
The former exports leu, according
to the valuable report of Mr. Nourse,
to thirteen hundred and twelve
thousand bales in i&oo. i.ney con

to fifteen cents, promise in tne cur
rent cotton year to fall below twelve

Before America sent cotton to
Europe the Surat cotton ranged from
twenty to thirty cents. When it falls
below fifteen in India, it gives but a
poor return, for it yields on the aver
aee but sixty-nine pounds to the acre,
and we may infer that the production
of India will continue to decline if the

Last year our crop of three million
One hundred and fifty thousand bales
returned a hundred and four dollars
per bale, and gave the planters thrae
hundred and twenty-seven millions ot
dollars. This was the largest sum
they ever realized in one year from
nttnr. Our exports were two mil

and baies, and gave the country two

While the supply grew moderately,
stocks declined, the demand in
Europe increased, and the consump
tion increased at the rate of three to
four hundred thousand bale3 a year.
If our planters had been content to
increase their planting but ten per
cent, a year, they might have kept
India where she is, they might have
sustained prices and supplied the in
creasing wants of Europe, but they
forgot that it was the last straw that
broke the back of the camel; they
forgot that England paid two prices
for half a crop in 'Gi, and much less
than a fair price for the crop of 'GO.
Abandonicg breadstuff's and other
substitutes for cotton, they have
thrown away their extra labor and
outlay, have to buy their flour and
provisions, and have diminished the
value of their crop at least fifty mil
lions of dollars.
They will be out of pecket for the
money they pay for the last six hun
dred thousand bales, both for culti
vation, bales, freight and pressing,
beside the loss on the residue of their
crop. They have lost the substance
while clutching at the shadow. For
tunately, for the country, an increase
in our exports from two million two

bales, will, if the price does not fall

Is the loss to the country irremedi

away fifty to eighty millions a year,
when she has bo rival that competes
with her?
"When cotton rises too fast in Eng
land the Bank of England, doubtless
on a hint from the Board of Trade,
puts on tho screws at the opportune
moment and ecrews down prices.
We must adopt another remedy.
We need not burn our cotton, as the
Dutch did their surplus nutmegs we
do not reqire so harsh a remedy. Let
our planters hold conventions in each
district of the cotton States and vote
to reduce their planting twenty per
cent. 1'ram last year ecuJl apply a fifth
of their land and force to other pro
ducts, and earry cut their resolutions.
Then send delegates to a general com
mittee of the cotton States, and report
those who fail to conform to their res
olutions. Of course some will not conform to
decrees which can be enforced by
public opinion only. Very many will,
and a reduction of ten per cent, on
production will restore values. .
It is easy to demonstrate that the
diversion will not only raise the value
of the crop, actually produced more
than twice ihe amount cf the reduc
tion, b.cV when applied to other pro
ducts. jice. sugar, corn, wheat, e
and oats will furnish a lar"-

IaA a month, more than a fourth, as
e taken the field, and vrar uses up

There is also another encouraging
aspect of the case. Although we havQ
in the last fiscal year increased our
exports of cotton more than seven
hundred thousand bales, such has
been the growth of consumption and
diminution of supply from other quar
ters, that the visible supply was on
the last of October twenty-seven
thousand bales less than it was at the
same date last year, so that it is ap
parent that if for two years past we
had increased our crops but ten per
cent, a year, instead of twenty-five per
cent, there would have been a quick
demand for our great staple at full
prices. This view of the subject is
confirmed by the fact that the arrivals
of cotton from other countries in
Europo has fallen off last year six
hundred and ninety thousand bales.
For the future the South must be
true to its own interests, or it will
succumb, not to failure of crops, but,
with the best soil, climate and facili
ties, to over-production.

" t General Butler left la'st night for
' East. lie had a Ions conference
wtth Boutwell, and called on the
XTTS'iide'jt, but eays that neither con -Vfrsatlon
was on matters of public in
terest. Butler denies the report tf ,at
his xmt to Washington had anjtn ing
to do with the President's Message , or
the future policy of the Goraror jent
touching the Alabama clairas, an d in
timates that the Messaga already
written.
The President, ia contersation yes
terday, referred to tb report that he
had treated Senator Sohurz coldly, on
his arrival in Washington last week,
and that he had been more friendly
toward Draie. Tho President re
marked that the- story was entirely
without foundation On th day that
SenaVa Schurz called, the President
was, engaged, and declined to see
neasly every oae. Drake, who called
bqn the earns day, was no more fortu-
ntte than ochnrz.
It is reported that Colfax ha3 ex-,
pressed himself in favor of a new 3.
sua of tei forty bonds, in plac'j of
oae authorized by the new Funding
Considerable stir was caused last
evening by the arrival of Commodore
Vanderbilt, Augustus . Sehell and
Horace Clark, of New York, and
Chapin, of Massachusetts.
A Fbenchman proposes to est0.
lish a child's theater in New Y' jrk
where all the infant pheoomer,a 0f
the day are to appear as acto 3 aa(j
actresses. The pieces are to fce e8.
pecially adapted to chilreD witn
child-like dialogue, and p'l0tg turnicg
?.,l?e passions and accidents of
childhood.
Ir is worthy of noB that tho voices
of all superior dan jers are strong and
harsh. This pec uliarity is said to be
caused by violent exercise. In recog
nitionlof this act professional singers
are forbidden much bodily exertion,
and are sometimes debarred even
from parlor dancing, lest the quality
of their tones be impaired.
CAEPET'i, T7AX.I PAPEES,

The weather is stormy throughout

London November 22, Tha feeling
in regard to the Eastern question is
much more healthy. Confidence is
in a good pait restored in the mosey
circles and breadstuff's is declining.
A special to the Timet from Berlin
says that Russia is seeking to prove
that tho story of buying an American
fleet to eeiva in the Black Sea squad
