DOES TIIE SOUTH WANT CHEAP
LAIiOR t
At the first thought it seems that tho great
requisite for tho'restoration of prosperity to our
section is cheap labor ; hut there is room for a
question as to whether the end attained by the
introduction oF Inborers who can successfully
compete with negroes, will be productive of
desirable results. The lubor system of the
South as it was in Lime past, was unquestion
ably tho most expensive and best paid labor
in the world. Nothing but the cultivation of
owr sail could Itavo supported such an expensive
form of labor. The monopoly of cotton cul
ture, together with the other productions of
incalculable value, which were annually pour
ing wealth into the South, was the only reve
nue which could ever support so costly a sys
tem of labor. While left to themselves the
people of the South were content with their
institutions, and their laborers were the hap
piest and best satisGed people in the world.
The perverting of this happy state of affairs
by fanatics has confused our people so that
many are seeking to promote measures which
must, if accomplished, prove ruinous alike to
the interests of both the white and black races
in the South.
The proposition to flood the country with
semi-barbarians from China or elsewhere,
would doubtless cheapen labor to an extent
which would astonish its advocates; the poor
negroes would be compelled to give place to
thorn, for they can live comfortably where
negroes would starve ; but at the same time
the native white people would find their
own interests materially injured by the
largely increased productions of our great
staple, which instead of bringing increase of
revenue to the producing section, would rather
tend to furnish cheaper cotton to the world,
while goods manufactured from it, would bo
enhanced rather than diminished in value, by
tbo increased demand for them consequent
upon the effort to civilize the imported hordes.
We have not the opportunity at preeent to
discuss this question fully, but design merely
to call the attention of those who are over
anxious for an abundant supply of labor to the
fact that while it may indeed be productive of
largely increased material wealth to the world,
neither the Southern planter nor the native
laborer will receive the benefit of that wealth.
If to embellish and ornament our section with
palatini residences, owned by foreign landlords,
as illustrated in down-trodden Ireland—if this
he desirable, then lot labor be reduced to its
minimum value, by the importation of com
peting millions who can subsist on rata and
mice, with a spoonful of rice occasionally ;
but if we would retain this generous soil and
salubrious climate fur ourselves and our chil
dren, let no inducements be offered to give an
undue stimulus to immigration. The over
crowded population of other countries will
naturally tend to this sparsely settled section,
ns rapidly as we can receive and assimilate
thorn to ourselves: any immigration more
rapid than this, must engulph us and destroy
our civilization. Is this result desirable ?
The Largest Elevator in the World.
In 1857, Messrs. J. <fe E. Buckingham erect
ed their great Central Elevator, which at that
time wns considered one of the great wonders
of Chicago enterprise, and was thought hy
many of tho over-cautious merchants to ho a
wild scheme, in which the owners were certain
to sink their fortunes. But not only has time
demonstrated the wisdom of the investment—
very many of those who condemned the plan
have since that time assisted in erecting other
capacious elevators at various convenient sec
tions of the city, for tho purpose of providing
means for handling the great quantities of
grain that now come pouring into Chicago
from every direction, making it the great grain
market of America. Within the past twelve
years, nearly sixty million bushels of grain
have Been received through this one elevator.
To meet the demands of a constantly increas
ing trade, it wa*. last tSpring determined to en
large the elevator. Originally it was 101x200
feet, but when the enlargement shall have
been completed, it will occupy 101x300 feet
on the ground, with walls two feet three inches
in thickness, and one hundred and fifty feet
high. This will make it the largest elevator
in tho world, as it will contain 270 bins, each
68 feet deep, with a total capacity of 1,600,000
bushels of grain. There will be three railroad
tracks running into the elevator, two of which
will bo used for receiving grain, and one for
delivery. Each of these tracks will accommo
date ten oars, so that thirty cars can be run
into the elevator at one time if necessary, thus
making it possible to discharge 200,000 bushels
a day.
Two hundred mon are now employed on the
building, and it is intended to increase the
force at an early day to 300, so that the build'
iug may be made ready for use early next year,
la the rear of the elevator proper, an engine
house, twenty two feet, and a boiler room
thirty eight feet in length, will be ereeted,
thus making the whole length of the building
360 feet. The Illinois Centra! Railroad Com
pany’* slip “ C” is on the east, and slip “ B"
on the west of the elevator, so that when dis
charging grain into vessels for Lake shipping
both convenience and dispatch are obtained
in handling grain. Four new boilers will be
put into the boiler room, and a large double
engine of 300 horse power will be put up at a
cost of about $27,000. The chimney will bo
about 150 feet high. The elevator is being
built in the strongest manner, and after tho
most approved plans, and when completed will
be worth half a million of dollars.
The editor of the Carson Appeal recently
saw a white boy and a little darkey bitched
up together as horses, and a China boy was
holding tine reins and driving them.

The flrcnt Crime.
The Radical party baa cuiunutu J many
crimes, but the greatest of all i» wlmt is called
“ Reconstruction.’’ By the tontimoney of every
department of the government during the ad
ministration of Mr, Lincoln, military success
was instant and perfect reconstruction. There
is not a particle of doubt about this. Why
were States which were deemed to be in the
Union during the long and bloody war declared
to beontof itihe moment the “ war for Union”
bad been brought to a successful issue ? There
is only one possible answer: The ruling party
meant to keep them in military control until
the right of suffrage was secured to the ne
groes, hoping thereby to pcriietuate its power.
Hero is the great crime. We speak not now
of it as a political crime, nlthough, as an utterly
lawless and revolutionary act, it was as wicked
as it could possibly be ; but we allude to its
far-reaching influence upon the social and
business interests of tho people. Its conse
quences might have been foretold with infalli
ble certainty. One is the dispersion and ex
tinction of the negro race. We are reminded
of this now, by a movement among the negroes
in Georgia to emigrate to the Northwestern
States. They find tlrey eannot live peaceably
with the whites. Why? Simply and only
because an outside power has. arbitrarily
sought to confer upon them superior—or equal,
if the word is preferred—power in the local
government: Grant has made it a point to
confer upon them many responsible offices, for
which they are notoriously unfit, and the con
sequence is, a feeling of enmity has been en
gendered between the races, and the weaker
race must get out of the way. It will save it
self for awhile by conforming to the wishes of
the whites ; hut no one can donbt that those
who will not do this, will find it agreeable to
move away. The negro is not fit to vote, and
Congress has no right to require hi* voting ;
and if, under these circumstances, he persists
in running a tilt against a superior race, he
will get the worst of it. A multitude acting
from bad advice will do this, and doing it, they
will offend and estrange the only power which
can bo useful to them, and nothing is more
natural than that, they should take refuge
among those supposed to bo better friends.
But, whether they go to the West or the East,
they will bo disappointed, and their extinction
will bo accelerated by the very means taken to
escape it. When the war was ended, the ne
groes were conceded to he free, yet the whites
of the South bore thorn no ill-will. They had
been faithful during the great trial, and might
have remained with their old friends, in their
changed relations, without conflict, if they had
been let alone; but the attempt to elevate them
to a superior power has destroyed them.
This lends to another alarming problem. It
is no light thing to paralyze at onoc the labor
of half an empire. It must he supplied, and
by a curious coincidence, ChinA. with its my
riads of people, locked in heretofore, throws
open her doors and offers emigration by the
million. What shall we do with it? There
is no doubt that Chinese labor is vastly superb
or to that of the negroes, in thoir present
moralized condition. This will be demonstra
ted the ensuing year; and we do not think it at
all extravagant to predict that, within n very
short time, the negro population of the South
will have to he supported at the public ex*,
pensc. Crowded out by better and cheaper
labor, they will scatter over the north and live,
while they live, by pillage or charity. This
emigration is likely to affect white labor, also,
most disastrously, and just at a time, too, when
it has no margin for accidents of any kind.
Reconstruction, indeed! This attempt to
reconstruct what wns perfect before is likely
to upset our whole political, social and indus
trial policy, and leave us in anarchy and pau
perism.
On Sunday morning the family of Louis
Drnosler, residing on Manor street, South
Pittsburg, heard the report of a pistol in an
upper chamber, and on going thither thoy
found a little daughter of Mr. Chessler, nam
ed Mena aged about ten years, lying upon the
floor in a dying condition. Beside her was a
Sharp’s revolver, and it was at onco seen that
the child had shot herself. She made several
efforts to speak to those around her, but was
unable to articulate, and died, therefore, with
out giving any explanation of tho shocking
affair. The father states that he left the re*
volver on the mantle-picco not knowing that
it was loaded. It is supposed tho little girl
was playing with tho weapon, and that it was
accidentally discharged.—Pitts. Post.
Remedy for AVhoofino Cocan.—The Tri
bune publishes the following remedy for the
whooping cough, contributed by a New York
physician : To one ounce bf tho dried leaves of
the common chestnut tree add a.quart of .boil
ing water, and when the infusion is cold give
a cupful three times a day, the last dose being
given when the patient retires. After twenty
four or thirty six hours the patient will be
relieved, and then the dose may be adminis
tered in smaller quantities,
CoMroRT to Tax Paters. —A German sta
tistician has discovered that those who pay the
greatest amount of taxes live the longest; that
is, he says tiiat only ono per cent, of those who
pay fifteen thalers taxes die in a year, while
two per cent, of those who pay only twelve
thalers die in that time; and so on in like
proportion down to those who pay nothing.—
There’s a little comfort for American tax
payers.
Destructive Drought.— The rains have not
been sufficient about this city and the sur
rounding country for miles around, since the
Ist of August, to enable our people to put in
their turnip crops. Those who sowed when
light showers fell, lost their seed, the hot sun
having parched the life out before or shortly
after the plant showed itself ou top of mother
earth. The nights are now cool, but in the
sun the, days are hot and the earth dry. If
copious rains do not descend shortly, the potato
crop will be almost a failure and the turnip
crop a total failure.—Columbus Sun. 11th.
The Brent Mining Horror.
Like n grrnt cloud of sadness comes the
ngu> of .that Wrib’© disaateg tyitchery
of over two hundred persons at the Avondale
coal mine near Scranton, J’a., a- particularized
yesterday. God give cmhfort to the desolated
hearts \vhicb mourn all over the valleys there
about, and wail out their sadness anff repining
over the mountains. Words of pity for tho
dead, for tho living, will not avail now, hut
this much is our duty to say, and wo say it.
Into the valley of death went these two
hundred workingmen, eager to labor for the
support of their families. Husbands, father*,
brothers, sons, lorcrs. clad in garb of laborers ;
strong of nmi; true of heart; stout of muscle.
Three months kept out of employment by the
avarice of monopolists, they were eager to
work, for they had needs to fill.
Into the mine, 'weeks unused, passed the
stream of life, of love, of labor, of deserving
manhood.
Tho pick, the bar, the shovel—the coal-black
faces—the blows of implements, the flicker of
miners’ lamps, the clicking revetherations, the
wiord figures to he seen in different coal cham
bers, the busy going and coming—told how
men will work for their loved ones.
The long idle works were set in motion
without examination. Tho greed of the mo
nopolists had long kept these men idle—tho
reckless indifference as to consequences 6’pened
the mines without examination—.the weak,
cockle shell death traps were sprung— the
uucared for, and unprotected furnace kissed in
mockery the tinder timbers —the flames, like
devils let loose, ran hissing, cracking, singing,
curling, dashing, burning their way up the
terrible shaft—the fire-damp and blue fine,
more terrible than death, rolled its way over
tho foul air, into caverns, leads, and chambers,
settling like the weight of hell into the lungs
imd over the bodies of the victims, and more
than two hundred of our brothers were called
to God !
Into the shaft went the living, the loving!
Out of the shaft leaped the flames as if to
burn the curse of this most appalling horror
into the hearts of those who by lovo of greed
and careless return to labor murdered them !
Into the shaft wont bravo men to learn of
their frionds. The heat, the smoke, the fire,
of death, hot from the throat of the
monster who there in the bowels of the earth
was surfeited with life, drove, and drove, and
drove back to the air, heroes who valued thoir
own lives as nothing.
Out of that ved hot grave are borne the
burnt, blackened, swollen, fire marked, mur
dered bodies of those who deserved no such
torture; borne to the arms of friends who
deserved no such sadness.
God pit} - the living and the dead.
A little care would have saved this horror.
A few dollars would have stayed the feast.
Ventilation shafts and an examination of the
mine, would have saved this torrible disaster!
But what cares wealth for manhood or suf
fering?
Grind, hear down, oppress, and destroy !
Greed is hearties-*—it srleneos investigation
—it buys legislation—it rewards labor, anid
tljen murders it.
Save nnr monopolies!
Save onr bondholders!
What care the rich if the poor dir, ate
murdered ? ’ >
Are there not other poor compelled to work
above and under ground, that riches may he
heaped before the rich, and treble labor award
ed the poor?
God pity, for man will not, the poor, the
sorrowing, the workingmen, who need pro-
tection, yot have it not.
Had tliero been two hundred bondholders,
monopolists, men of wealth, killed, there
would have been congressional legislation
and military interference. But theso two
hundred were pour men. Let us see what will
follow their terrible death.
Let us see!—[N. Y. Democrat.
The Case in France.
The departure of Eugenie and son for Ajac
cio, the atmosphere of which, it was believed,
would impart to tho offspring of the Emperor
something of the talent of his family, followed
as it was by tho serious illness of the Emperor
himself, has been deemed a most unfortunate
incident of the peculiar Parisian times.
That the condition of Napoleon’s health is
such ns to render his early demise more than
probable, is indicated by the hurried return of
bis son toward Paris, whilo the mothor lias
been permitted to c.miplcto the visit contem
plated when thoy left. It is also evidence
that the father does not Jcom tho family hold
upon thesentiment of Franco sufficiently strong
to insure its continuance at the head of tho
nation should the son be away from, the Gov
ernment seat when be shall depart to roturn
no more.
The late changes by which much of liberty
has been gvanted to the people, coupled with
tins new anxiety for the presence of tho prince
in Paris, gives evidence, first, that tho Emperor
has resigned himself to belief in his early death ;
and, secondly, to tho absolute necessity for
immediate action, following bis demiso. in or
der to secure the throne he has created to n
prince of his blood.—[New York Democrat.
Another Sensation for Niagara. The
boldest and most scientific feat yet performed at
Niagara is promised before the season closes
by a daring fellow who proposes to cross the
river without the employment of any such safe
guard as an “undershot” velocipede, and, in
fact, he will even dispense with the rope.
This new miracle, who. we presume, will claim
the distinction of the “Canadian Sinbad,” de
signs taking serial flight across the chasm on
wings ; and as wild as such an attempt would
seem, we can state as a positive fact that ap
paratus is now being constructed in this city
for that purpose. We are not yet informed
whnt sort of practice the new professor has
been pursuing, or concerning the principle of
his flying appurtenances, but it would proba
bly be advisable for him to take a small flutter
over tho Dun-las marsh before doing Niagara.

A Manly Temper.
Horace Buslinell. in one of his essays, gives
ih.i following forcible description of the man
' who has learned to comprehend and control
his own weakness and variations of mind. —
' And what true man has not dono so ? lie
! says :
” Now a wise man is one who understands
■ himself well onnugh to make due allowances
I for such insano moods and vagaries, never con
j eluding that a thing is thus and thus because
, just now it hears that look : waiting often to
see what a -sleep or walk, or a cool revision, or
perhaps a considerable turn of repentance will
do. lie does not slash upon a man or a sub*
j jeet from the pointer a just now rising temper.
| He maintains a noble candor, by waiting some
I times for n gentler spirit and a better sense of
truth. lie is never intolerant of other men’s
judgments, because he is a little distrustful of
his own. lie restrains the dislikes of preju
dice, because ho has a prejudice against his
dislikes. Ilis resentments are softened by his
condemnations of himself. Ilis depressions do
not crush him, because he has sometimes seen
the sun, and believes it may appoar again.—
lie revises his opinions readily, because he has
a right, he thinks, to better opinions if ho can
find them. lie holds fast to sound opinions,
lest his moodiness in change should take all
truth away. And if his insano thinking ap
pears to he toppling him down the gulf of
skepticism, he recovers himself by just rnising
the question, whether a more sane way of
thinking might not think differently ? A man
who is duly aware of his own distempered fuc
ultv, makes a life how different from one who
acts as it he were infallible, and had nothing
to do but just to let himself be pronounced.”
Gkn. Longstrest.—Gen. Longatreet “claims
that whilst he is politically damned, Virginia
is commended for adopting the very class of
.ideas and tho very line of action whioli he two
years ago saw and stated was in the way of the
inexorable logic of ovents.”
We do not know that any body particularly
“commends Virginia ;’’ but the difference be
twoon tho Old Dominion and Gen. Longstreet
is this : Tho one thought she was compelled
to stoop, and the other stooped of his own
accord. —Constitutionalist.
A British officer committed an offense in the
Crimean war punishable by death, but being
influential, had that penalty commuted to per
petual reduction to half pay, and to have bis
sword riveted to the scabbard. lie is now on
duty at Halifax. Ilis position requires him
on public occasions to be in elaso attendance
upon the Governor, and this brings him con
spicuously forward. At tho reception of the
Prince, ns tho latter with his suite stepped
upon the platform prepared for him, upon
which were standing the Governor and other
dignitaries, all tho officers saluted with the
sword, tiio single exoeption being this atten
dant upon the Governor, who, with his sword
by his side, was yet compelled to salute with
his hand. Any one who has worn a sword
will realize how much worse than death is this
public disgrace.
A oouple of girls put a bull fr-.g Into tho
hired man’s bed to see if they could get him
to talk. Daniel threw the frog out of the
window and never said a word. Soon after
he put a bushel of chestnut burrs into the
girls bed and about the time he thought they
would make the least shadow, Daniel went
to their door and rattled it furiously. Out
went the light and in went the girls, but they
didn’t stick, though tho burrs did. Calling to
them, he begged them to be quiet; lie only
wanted to know if they had “seen anything
ot that pesky bull-frog ; he'd give two dollars
to find him.’’ .
New York Legislature ratified the proposed
fifteenth amendment, and fatally neglected to
direct Goveror Huffman to transmit their action
to the Federal Government. Hence it falls to
the ground. Georgia's Legislature rejected
tho proposed fifteenth amendment, and direct
ed Governor Bullock to transmit their action
to the Federal Government, Governor Bul
lock has disobeyed the direction. Governor
Hoffman has done his whole duty in not assu
ming instructions not given. But the Radical
prints quote this State for the amendment, and
never quote Georgia as against it. New York
is to defeat the nullification of her will by the
very stupidity of her Legisiature. Georgia is
to lose the registration verdict by reason of a
rebellious Governor. Will the Republicans be
frank onough to denounce Governor Bullock’s
disobedience as heartily as they abuse Gover
nor Hoffman's masterly inactivity.—World.
