Tribune, Abiding the Issue. “ The South," wo are told, lias decided for Grunt by a small majority ; wherefore. tlio.se of the South who were not for Grant should conform to the judgement and set to work to Imi! I up their section's indus trial and commercial prosperity. We heartily second the motion. Let the South like tlie North, accept the situation. Let her resolve not to waste years in sighing for the impossible, but whatever her hand Undctli to do, that do with all her might. This advice will sound harsldy in the ears of planters who Cannot possibly grow enough to pay the taxes imposed on them by men who pay nothing under such nujckeriesof governments as those ot South Carolina and Arkansas—yes, or even Louisiana as she has been, to sav nothing of North) Carolina uniter lioklcn or Geor gia under the rule of her later fugitive it is hard that men should be bidden to slop grumbling atul.go to work, when their earning must be snatched away and de voured by such daughters of the horse leech usjimpose taxes on tlie long-suffering people of the Slates above named. But what else ? The South must live , and she cannot live on sterile agitation She lias appealed for a kindlier usage, and it lias been flatly denied her. Now, we are well assured that tlie chief victors in oqr latg strugglo are inclined to correct abuses and satisfy just complaints to the extent of their power. We urge the just overborne whites of the South to meet ev ery kindly overture with cordiality and trust. "Let us have peace" is a cuckoo song . hut let us try to have it neverthe less It were idle to prolong a contest when hope has utterly fled. If the geu tlcmun of the South would give more heed to the education of their poor neighbors, especially the blacks, —would treat them hom this hour as fellow-citizens, having like interests and duties with themselves— it would not he possible to keep the igno rant voting (hr plunderers aud peculators ! evermore. The geotlcmcu of the South may yet go to the (mils and tiud their hold hands aud cottage Umaut&votlng with, not a aiust them. This is a work ol time; wherefore, it can uot be begun inn soon. The idle,, the dissolute, are not amenable to llte influence of association with the (letter classes they choose other eomrados, other conversation lint even o >■ utii t it ruling, we must hope that there ate Blacks who do uot choose to la' taxed as i veu they must now he. when, by con ferring ami acting with Whites Whom tl e\ know and respect, they may sweep away their robber* into nn oblivion of all but their infamy. flu' late eanva-s has enlightened the j .V r:h idt u gat’d to Southern local rule.its I e.iii'cs amt its poiiis No one longer pie- - ■ends that things are as they should be at ' ■he S, nlh, < \ o in States like South Caro lina, where Republican rule meets no so rlotis opp-option.

Lewis Solomon, deceased, in the thirty second yenr of her ago It gives the writer of this notice pleasure to SBy that he lias been intimately acquainted with the deceased ever since her childhood, and therefore knew her to be a most ex cellent lady, and one whose examples are well worthy of emulation. She labored hard and earnestly for the good of tier husband and children She wa* a mem ber ol the Baptist Church for many years previous to tier death, and was know n to tie a worthy and exemplary member, al ways noted for affability in her manners and strong attachments for her friends and neighbors, ever manifesting a benevolent igid even sacrificing disposition,whenever necessary to aid and comfort those in need. She feared uot death, and asked only a few moments before Hie separation of the soul from earthly tabernacle, that the Lord would conduct her spirit home where there wouldbc no more suffering, hut all joy and peace forever more. Industry and religion were her chief delights on earth. Bite often spoke of death, hut not in dread, but said that God s will was hers aud she patiently awaited his summons. She ielt a devoted husband and two children (one of which is an infant.) and many friends and relatives to mourn tier toss Oh ! how sad to behold the mother of an infant in death, hut the true christ thin can only be consoled by tlie fact "‘that all tilings work together for good to them that love the Lord.” Mow pleasant the thought -that death may be stripped of all its terrors, aud dying grace be given when timely preparation is not neglected.
