WEDNESDAY, , JAN. 11, 1882. WILL THERE BE A BREAKING UP? Some respectable Northern jour- nals have been contending that the Selid Democratic South would go to pieces now, since the Mahone plan barely squeezed itself through in Virginia. The question would naturally arise just at this point, what is going to cause this disintegration, and who are to lead the movements in the several States? Surely it will not be the Lamar’s, the Hill’s, the Gor- den’s, the Morgan’s of the South, who will organize new parties or factions and aim to hurl from power the old Democratic party which alone brought peace and prosperity to that section. There is no material need for a breaking up of the political solidity of the Southern States. They were made solid by natural causes. Self protection is the first law of nature, always among every species of the human race. The Southern people only united in this solid compact as the most effective method of chok- ing ott the political cormorants that hung like leeches to their throats. Has the South any reasons or dispo- sition now to again subject herself to the dangers of such a_ condition by allowing the present solidity— the only safeguard to her political iberties—destroyed? We think not. The truth of this business about the Southern people wanting to aban- don the old parties and begin some- thing new under the sun, is simply escaped wind from numerous gas- bags called politicians, styling them- selves patriots and reformers, who belong with that tribe from which Longstreet, | Mosby, and Ma- hone sprang. There are a_ set of Halfbreeds who recognize no principle, and are never content un- til they get some petty office, who are inciting mischief into the minds of credulous people aside from the narrew circles where this influence prevails no dissatistaction oxi the South. The effort made last tall to turn Mississippi over to the clans ot repudiation fur- ni San example of what can and can’t be done in the direction of breaking up the Solid South. Mahoneism may reign in Virginia tor a season, but the autumn of its existence will soon draw near when the abortive creature will wither and die on the spot where it was born, an unclean thing for chaste and hon- orable people to welcome as their savior. and sts in FITZ JOHN PORTER'S CASE. {t now appears that Fitz John Por- ter, is to have his disabilities removed after nmeteen yeats waiting. Gen. Grant is out in a letter to the Presi- dent earnestly pleading for the old soldier—something Grant has re- frained trom doing until this late day. Gen. Porter was court martialed in 1363, while under Gen. Pope for iukewarmness to the cause, and hence was disqualified from holding any office of trust or profit under the United States Government. Under this disgrace he has rested ever since, every succeeding President having refused to remove the disability.— Gen, Grant among the rest, refused to do anything in the matter while President. but now recommends a favorable consideration of the appeal to President Arthur. The whole country is, doubtless, quite anxious that Gen. Porter be reinstated. a The latestrumor about Jesse James is that he was at his mother’s in Clay HOW ABOUT THIS. The Daiiv Yournal Democrat, published at Warrensburg, handles us inthe foliowing manner on our railroad policy: If the Timms is an index to pub- lic sentiment at Butler, Wafrrens- burg has noth.ng to expect ‘rom that place inthe matter of building a railroad. We understand the situa- tion well enough to know that a sin- gle institution in Butler, whose in- terests are identical with those of a Holden institution has labored assi- duously to estrange the people of Butler from the C. M. and K. road, well knowing that while its construc- tion would be vastly beneficial to the capitol of Bates, 1t would im- peril their interests at Holden. We do not expect anything better of the Trmzs, but certamly tne Democrat and Record cannot fail to discern the agency that is working to over- throw the Harris projects at all haz- ards! Warrensburg is aburdantly able to take care of herself and_ will most certainly do so, but we desire our adroit (?) friends of the Tres to understand that the cause ot their dancing when the Holden boys fid- dle is negsecret. If the money had not already been obtained to” bond the C. M. and K. to Warrensburg there might be something alarming in the attitude of Butler as painted by the Times We perceive very accurately the sly purpose of the J.-D. in thus de- livering itself of such superlative Nonsense. It is a cute way our journalistic friends down there have of drawing us out in expressions of favor or disfavor of their local schemes. We are not to be caught on any such pin-hook, and you had as well understand that gentlemen, first as last. The Times has declined to side in with either the Harris or Walters scheme, and has so expressed itself on more than one occassion. We don’t intend to throw cold water on either project, and we don’t propose to say things about the one that would be aetrimental to the other. We welcome both to our doors, and will offer up the fatted calf for he who crosses our threshold first. This is ovr railroad policy at pres- ent, Judge Waters, has completed the survey from the C & A road, via Holden to this city and Rich Hill. From this fact alone his company is entitled to our best recognition and hospitality. If he comes first with a proposition, teasible and just, he will get the money, no doubt, Butler has to give for a connection with the C& Aread. Further than this we do not feel warranted in speaking. From this time forward we trust the J.-D. will do us the kindness of not misrepresenting our position on the railroad question. The St. Louis Mews, alludes to Hon. J. R. Waddill’s location mn Kansas City in the following way: Hon. James R. Waddill, the late Democratic Congressman from the Sixth District, has removed from his old home in Springfield, where he was born and raised, to Kansas City, where he will continue the practice ot his profession. Mr. Waddill was acknowledged as the first criminal lawyer in Southwest Missouri, and prosecuted the first three men who were hung in that section since the war. It is stated that he may be a candidate for the Democr nomi- nation in the Eighth Cong: ional District, and so be able to harmonize the discordant elements. g upon the The Gazette is ur: people of Rich Hill the importance It states that the has broken out in Ft. that the disease is very apt to reach Rich Hill in due time, doubtless before anybody is aware of it.

Crittenden to commute j the sentence of death pronounced upon John A. Phelps of Saline coun- ty, to imprisonment for life, but all to no purpose. In this case the Gov- ernor even resisted the appeais of his wife, whom it is said used her influ- ence in behalf of Phelps. ee Two factions are springing up in county on Thursday night the sth. | the Rebublican ranks of Missouri.

It is said that Wm. H. Vanderbilt is soon to retire from active business. Eleven inches of snow fell at Rich- mond, Virginia, on the night of the 5th instant. a The public debt of the United States has been reduced during the past year $16,300,000. John A. Phelps was hanged at Marshall on Friday, the 6th, for the Murder of Elijah Keyton in April last. ee The latest indications are that Sar- gent ot California isto be made Sec- retary of the Interior, and Wm. E. Chandler Secretary of the Navy. Owing to the increase of small pox throughout the country, Presi- dent Arthur has resolved to address a message to Congress on the sub- ject. ‘Lhe trial of Mrs. Mary A. Har- per for the killing of her little step son, in Henry county in October last, is now in progress before Judge Gantt at Clinton. The small pox is becoming alarm- ing throughout the Southwest, in lo- calities. Every precaution possible should be exercised toward prevent- ing its spreading. It 1s expected Congress will get down to work now since the holiday testivities are over. Up to this time the introduction of bills of buncomb has been the chiet feature of each day’s proceeding. es The Nevada Ledger suggests the organization of a hook and ladder company to protect the property of that city against the ravages of the flames. We don’t desire todiscour- age our neighbors in this undertaking, but unless they make a better suc- cess of a fire company than Butler has done, the effort will be in vain. We are in receipt of volumn one number one of the Daily Record, published at Pierce City, this State, by Smith & Davis. It is a sprightly five column paper and deserves that support which we hope and_ believe the people of that city will accord to it We welcome the Daily Record to our exchange list. Our Foreign mmigration. CN. Y. Sun.) The year’s statistics of immigra- jion at Castle Garden as mad show enormous number of arrivals, of which 430.276 were steerage passengers, the remainder being being cabin passengers, ex- cept 183 brought by coast vessels. This total of 455.681 is 128.310 more than last year’s, which was then the largest on record. It is more than five times as great as the immigration of 1875: nearly seven times that of 1876; more than eight times that of 1877; more than six times that of 1878. It is astonishing to observe thatfour years ago the twelye month’s arrivals were only 54-536 at Castle Garden, while there are 455.681. The total of last year exceeded by 172,974 the combined immigrations of the four years from 1875 to 1878, inclusive. When_the arrivals at Boston, Baltimore, Phil- adelphia, Charleston, New Orleans and other ports have been added. The tolal_will probably be nearly 700.000. This is one of the great and memorable facts of 1881—the unprecedented march ot humanity from the Old World to the New. Yet there is reason for believing that the year 1882 will surpass in this respect evenits predecessor. By the last week of December fourteen thousand tickets had already been taken for transportation in vessels to leave Bremen for America in the spring, and almost an equal number from Hamburg, Germany sent to Castle Garden alone, last year, near- ly 200.000 of her people. To the whole of the United States she sent more than a quarter ot a million. Yet the rush this year is to be grea - er than ever.
