The Lewisburg, Pa., Chronicle of the
10th instaut quotes the following para
graphs from a letter recently written by
Senator Mitchell to Prof. Tustin :
"I appreciate very keenly the weitrlit of
the very grave responsibility cast upon
me by my election to the Senate. I am
not vain enough to attribute this to any
special fitness on my part in point of abil
ity to shine in such a body among the
great men of the Nation, but I am con
vinced rather that it was bestowed in the
belief that I am disposed to deal fairly
and justly toward all parties. In my
judgment, the highest essential attribute
of a public man is measured by a purpose
to do the right as he is given to see it.
So far as that is concerned. I assure you
no one need hesitate in the belief that I
am disposed to exemplify it in the future,
as I have endeavored to do in my career
in the past.
And now I am about to accept a career
of more grave responsibility than any
hitherto lain upon me, knowing that by
so doing I lay aside the hope which I
have for years entertained of spending
some of the long years of a rapidly ebb
ing life in that peaceful home and neigh
borhood relation which is best fitted to
confer happiness here and to secure it
hereafter. But I assure you I shall en
deavor to stand guard against all the
blandishments of tbe world, the flesh and
the devil in whatever station 1 may be
called to act. I shall strive on toward
the end, in the hope that if I do not enjoy
such rest and tranquility here I may in
herit it hereafter. I regard the "legacy"
of the blessed Eternal Life as higher and
better and far more precious than all
earthly honors or worldly fame.
I feel very greatly indebted to my old
schoolmate and long-time friend, Mr,
Wolfe, for his confidence and support.
Without them, I am quite aware my nom
ination and election could not have been
secured with so great unanimity, even
had my selection been at all possible
without his aid and concurrence.
Says the Boston Herald :—Marked as
has been the improvement in the South
among all classes and in almost every in
dustry, there is a danger which threatens
this section and which can be more easily
averted now than in the future: From
everywhere and everybody comes the
statement that one of the great questions
to be solved by the South, and that very
soon, is the labor question. Already it is
becoming dfllcult for large planters to
command the labor to plant and gather
their crops. They And it necessary, in
many places, to yield to the colored man's
desire to till the soil for himself by giv
ing him a house and a few acres of
ground upou the plantation, which he can
cultivate for himself, and allow him a
portion of his time to work it. Of course
the custom varies in different sections,
but it is evident that in all parts of the
South the whites are finding it to their
intrests to cultivate closer and better re
lations with the blacks. This is as it
should be, and will naturally result in
beneflits to both. I believe, however
that the result of this year's planting
demosstrates the fact that the sooner the
great plantations are partitioned and fall
into the hands of small farmers the better
it will be for the South.
The totai amount of the new French
loan is $200,000,000 in American currency
and the rate of inter st S pe cent. As the
bonds were sold for 8:H, the Government
actually received but $100,500,000 in cash
and the buvers of the bonds will realize
3.63 per cent, on their investment. The
outstanding French bouds now redeem
able net the holders at present rates 3.43.
Our own 4-per-cents. when at 112J, net a
trifle over 3.55 per cent. What advantage
there is to the French Government in fix
ing the rate of iutrest so low that its
bonds are only negotiable at a discount
of 10® per cent, is not apparent. A 3£-
per-cent. bond would probably have had
the aditional advantage that when the
debt comes to be paid, ifit ever does, the
Government would have to pay no more
byway of principal than it actually re
ceived. — Press.
Colonel Thomas A. Scott, since his
recent return from the South, has endow
ed with $50,000 the chair of Mathematics
in the University of Pennsylvania; given
$50,000 to Jefferson Medical College, $30,-
000 to the Orthopedic Hospital, $20,000
to the Children's Department of the Epis
copal Hospital, and $50,000 to a Southern
Medical College.
