An luter untional tAuitary congress will be called, and measure! lakeu to preveut tee spread of tlio pestilence, which Is alumni certain to follow thn euuual (fathering of pilgrim Irom ill paria of tlio Moslem world at Mecca. In I it a in, an lu China. Hie (l!ae bat umilo Utile or no progress among the Kuropcau population, being especial ly a plaguo of Ibo poor ami underfed, and liuding Ita homo In tlio crowded and IllUiy by waya of groat cilia. Tlio European rosldouts of the nlliea of India and Chlua are almost with out exception wclMo.do, ami perioue who understand mid practice hygienic laws. Hence their escape. It cauuot be that more difference of race would grunt immunity from the plague. If it is ever trausplauted to the thickly peopled cities of Kurope, where proper conditions of squalor and WMit exist, It will probably flourish there as It does in Bombay. Nature is remorseless, nud the plague, while terrible to the lmagiuntiou, may not be an unmixed evil to the humau race, even if It sweeps over the civilized world. It is nature's care for tho type 'it tho expense of tho Individual The survival of the Attest is a doctrine that kuows no compassion or vari tiou. Humankind would soon be- como too numerous for it own good, were it not for the instinct of war implanted by nature, and the visit lions of pestilence which oceassionally weed out tlio weaker individuals of the race. The balance wf!l bo kept, whatever may be the efforts of men to the contrary. If we abolish war entirely, and devoto all our energies to the perfection of what we call civ lization, Ihe greater part of mankind must tduuge lower and lower into proverty in direct proportion as wealth and luxury Increases. Nature take no uoto of Justice In adjusting hor bal- ance. Her plague strikes down with out regard to Individual merit. The cud sought is obtained the thinning out of a too numerous population Even it poverty could bo dono away with, other peslllflucos, brought about by luxury instead of want and fi I lb, would achieve the same end. It is the duty ot Uuitod Europe to do all it can to s'.ay Iko progress of the destroyer, but If a world wide pesli- Ijucc is upon us it comes not entirely without bcuetit to tho human race, irSurtTtiTe'EeViTixpectetl. A Hungarian tramp named Palttka has bcou arrested at Eaton, Georgia, who has confessed Jto being a par ty to the atrocious and uihuniau crime which sent more than twenty luuoceut people down to death at Cahaba bridge. The one sole object of that brutal murder was robbery, tbe uorpees and dying passenger hav ing beeu (tripped of tbeir valuable before help arrived by the humau beast who planned tbe mouitrous crime. It was almost luiposilble to guess where lo look for tbe perpetra tor of an action so out of humau na ture. It was not a crlmo of clvllUa tiou; not sueb a crime a negree would be likely to commit. Tbe de tective would rathor have judged it, as in I'o' fearful dory of tbe Murd ers in the line Morguo, to be the act of lorne crealuro not in tho human form, ami actuated by lower instincts. It toeiiia appropriate that it abould prove to bo the work of a Hungarian tramp. It la a relief to have tho bur den of ucb a crime removed from the raco to which we belong, or that with which we are constrained to be brought into daily contact. A short time ago an article in the Timks, dealiug with tbe annual tramp pest which floods the south lu winter and urgiugstriugout methods lu deal ing with this class of malefactors, was adversely criticised by a contemporary paper, which recommended charity and leniency for the tramps, and re buked the ompbatio condemnation of the fratoruity by the Timks. We uow call attention to tbe arreat of thia creature lu couurmatlou of those as sertions, aud ask what charity or leniency should be tutted out in such a case. Tho south want Immigrants. It urges the people of the north to come south to escape the rigor of the uorthoru winter-, but wheu they come simply lo loaf, to beg, to steal, rob, aud murder, Ihe prison aud the rock pile should meet them at the frontiers. HOW DOGS ARE STUNTED. Probably there hRs never been an eveut in history which was so produc tive of lying as the Cuban war and everything couuected with it. No soouer does the newspaper man take his pen in band to write on this sub ject than he seems possessed with a delirium of mendacity. Not satisfied with iudiscriminale lying themselves tli3v seem detormiued to force tbe o lium upon all who are in any way connected with the affairs of the i- liiid, Tbe most Incomprehensible of of all these newspaper romances is the reported controversy between Gener al Lee and Mr. Money. It Is resolv ing itself, through tbe medium of tbe newspapers, to a mere trivial ex change of "you did" and "I did'nt," like a school children's quarrel. When ever a dispatch appears it may confi dently bo expected that tbe next one will assert that tlicro is not one word of truth In it. The controversy seems to exist only iu Ihe newspapers them- solves, but it is probable that Mr, Money finds fame and forlnue dearly bought, even if bis letters are worth a thousand dollars apiece. Methods Emplojed 1b th HMifMtin )f Toy Terrier. There is an era of tiny dogs in Eng lish soclrty. Tho more diminutive a parcel of enjiine fleh thavt you cam pos sess the more are you a swell, (ay the Toledo Blade. But alas! I low many fr mi nine readers who delight In the miniature dogiriea know that they are an artificial product? There is in London an establishment devoted entirely tn the stunting of the am lmols. The proprietor la an ex-breeder of fighting dogs, but he now finds irore profit In rearing tbe lllliputlan canines, for which he haa a wide repu tation. He does not claim to be the originator of the proeeaa, for he eay that all dojr men Know of the dwarf ing powers of aloohol, but he asserta that he is the only man In London to adopt the principle systematically, Hi method 1 as follows: The pup destined to be stunted is taken from lta mother when a few hour old and when it begins to whine for sustenance It Is fed with a warm decoction of gin and water. Deprived of milk. It takes to tils readily. When it reaches a certain age alcohol in various forms constitutes tbe animal's sole diet. The pups do not die nor da they develop. They soon cease to grow at all. After a generation or two of mating the rauoh-prized 11111- putian canine ia obtained. ALWAYS ILtW. iNatcbra Democrat. In view of the tact that there are to mauy well-to-do aud luduilrou agri oullvrlsts at the Northwest who are uow looking with w Uful eyea toward the Southern Blatee a the great Mecca of the United Stales, the plase whore they eau make an easier living and lay up more of the world's goods than I possible iu tho arid, bleak and gen erally nudeslrable sections In which they are uow located, loads us lo re gret somewhat that Mississippi did not lake stop to be represented by an elaborate display of her agricultural and otber reaourocs at the cantenulal exposition that Is lo be held at Nash vllle, Teuu., during the current year.

Our fett ate It Is true, has very little money lo spend In matter of publio display, bul wheu these displava ere likely lo be atleudod by substantial results, they cauuot fail to nrove most justifiable for the investment of a limited amount of the public fuuds. Of course, it it uow too late for anything lo be done iu this direction but It la only auother one of I ho mauy opportunities that Mississippi bus neg Iscled to push herself forward in the race of progress aud prosperity We have beeu eullroly to slow la enter prise of this character, aud it cannot be gaiusald that we have beeu sufferers thereby, lbere I net uow, so far as we know, any creditable book or even pampblel that gives our Slate the credit of possessing the latent resources she does offer, the advantages aud op portuuities that she cau place at the disposal of tbe Immigrant, that could be sent out to any part ot the country to thoso seeking Information of Mis- sissippi.

Atlanta Jeurual.l One 01 tbe most Interesting speeches at the Jackson banquet of the souud money Democrats iu Chicago was thai of Mr. Hamlin, aMittant secretary of tbe treasury. Oue of the point msdo by Mr. Ha tu rn wa that ''the present admiuislra tion In iisuiug bonds lo protect the gold reserve has iu effect but re-issued those bond which (be last admluit tration unwisely purchased and cancelled." The fact thus slated is an important oue aud must be cousidered in any fair estimate of the reeord of the treasury department under the pres ent admission. Wheu Mr. Cleveland went out of office on the 4th of Murcb, 1889, hs left a large surplus in the treasury. This begau to dwindle after President Harrison' administration got fairly under way aud wa enacted. Iu spite of the vauishiug aurplus that aamlmstraliou continued lo buy lu bonds until lbere whs a deficit ii; tead of a mrplu in the treasury. For the fiscal year 1889 there was a surplus of $87,700,000. For tho next year the surplus was $106,400,000. Then the MclCluley law weui into ef fect aud the aunual aurplus rau down with a rush until iu Ihe fiscal year 1893 it wao only $2,800 000, aud lu last half of tbe year there was a de ficit instead of a surplus. Both seerelarlo of the treasury un der President Harrisou ncrtlstciitlr pursued the pollsy of buying bonds "to relieve tbe mouey markot" when ever there wa a fiuauclal stringency. a a coniequeuc tbe $100,000,000 reserve was reduced to $20,000,000 when Presldeut Cleveland was inaug urated for bis present tarm. Ibe Harrison admiuislratiou pur chased $216,000,000 of bond, paying tor a large pari ot them with the sur. plus which the preceding admiuislra uon nail lert.
