Daar Sir,—An unfortunate ac
cident occurred near this place on
yesterday, w hich, from its strange
ness, deserve* more than a mere
passing mention.
As the up-train flora Cedar Keys
for Fernandina. neared Bronson,
Levy county, the engineer came
through the smoking-car, and in an
excited manner, told me he had
just run over a man, crushing him
across the chest. The train va
quickly stopped, and moved slowly
backward shout a mile, when we
saw a hat lying nerr the track.—
The train was again stopped, and
all got out and proceeded in search
of the body, which we soon discov
ered lying near the track, in n fear
ful state of mutilation ; the neck,
chest and left arm crushed, the
head partially severed as though
the neck had been cut with a knife.
The body was recognized as that of
Reuben Tomkins When first seen
he was sitting on the track, and at
the blowing of the whistle, ran up
the road in frontof the engine with
his hat in hand. He did not seem
to be intoxicated. He had every
opportunity of getting off the track,
but from some strange persistent
inconsistency he rushed or. to his
destruction, verifying the saving
that, “those whom the gods would
destroy they first make mad ” It
was clearly a case of mania trami
toria. The body was taken to
Bronson, there to await the down
train to be conveyed to his home
near Otter Creek I, Y W.

THE STOIC.TI lil.\U.
The account of the terrific tornado
which swept like a besom of destruc
tion through our Slate on last Satur
day. will be found in fill I in our
columns to day. This was the most
destructive cyclone that ever visited our
section of the country, and its details
arc heart-rending. The sad and in
some iu>tauees disiitute ondition of
the sufferers from this t rri’nle J’rovi
dential visitation, appeals with peculiar
empha-is to all those who escaped the
awful calamity. Aire dy the people
are moving to the relief of the sufferers.
We are happy to record the fact that
the (’ity Council of Groenegboro’ has
made an appropriation for t! is purpose
and we feel assured that our citizens
individually will respond in a spirit of
Christian RLcinitty.
ADVIC E TO XEG ROES.
Under be above caption, we pub.
lisb elsewhere in our present issue,
a most excellent article clipped
from the Perry Home. Journal, and
commend i: especially to that class
of our population who have been
so wofully duped for the last decade
l>v adventurous pol iicians.
All the Radical philanthrophy
which finds vent in amendments to
the Organic Law of the land in fu
tile efforts to pla'e the negro upon
the same plane wiih the cultivated
whitemnn, and tke enactments of
Congress establishing his social
status, can avail nothing in amelio.
ration of his mental, moral or so
cial condition. The great problem
of the destiny of the negro upon
this continent can novel he solved
by the strong arm of the law. The
truth is. the tendency of all such
legislation is prejudicial to the ve
ry best interest of the negro,
Naturally, the negro is adapted
to the climate of the South. He
could not stand the intense cold of
ibe Northern winters—nor could
he make bis labor remunerative
there, then if he lives in this coun
try at all it must be here in the
Souih Such being the case, ii is
desirable, at least so far as be is
concerned, that the kindest feelings
should exist between 'he white
rare of the South and himself. It
iloes seem that the colored people
of this country, making due allow
ance for their ignorance, ought to
have sense enough to realize the
tact that the efforts of their pre
tend *d friends are not calculated to
produce any s u ch desirable state of
affairs. The everv act of the Re
publican Party, since the emanci
pation of the negro, which bad any
bearing on his condition, has tend
ed to alienate and estrange the peo
ple among whom he must live, if
live at all, and upon whom he is de
pendent for maintenance. These
pseudo-philanthropists of the North
have never really considered the
negro’s true interests and to-day
care as little about him. except as
r political automaton, as they do
about the South Sea Islanders
The average Radical p'nilantropist
is a whited sepulchre. External!v
correct (as far as the ignorant and
deluded tipgro can see.) but inter
nally full of rottenness and corrup
tion. With a wonderful show of
love for the poor negro, they
have won bis unwary confidence
only to use him f r unholy ends.—
The great plutn line of sincerity
need not be used in making sound
ings of their charitable intentions
The ripples upon the surface indb
cate too clearly their shallowness.
We hope those colored people in
onr midst who can read, will care
fuliv consider and heed the advice
contained in the article in question,
and counsel their less fortunate
and more ignorant brethren to pur
sue a like course.
According to an article in the
London United Service Magazine,
Major-General Sir Garnet Wolse
ley gave it as his deli b rate opin
ion, from personal observation,
that “in military genius Lee has
had no superior since the great Na
poleon astoni-hed the world by his
marvelous career of victory,” and
he is “even above the gre >t Ger
man generals, who have so recently
avenged the defeats inflicted on
their country by the mighty Corsi
can ”
