WHITE MEN' MUST RULE.
EX-SENATOR ALCORN ON THE
SOUTHERN QUESTION.
Vo Possibility of the Success of the
* scheme to Build Up a White Repub
lican Party in the South—The Grand
o id Party Missed Its Opportunity
Afte r the Close of the War.
Washington, April 30.—Ex-Senator Al
.n 0 f Mississippi is here to bav-o a talk
with President Harrison about the south.
What he will tell him is indicated by what
be told in an interview as follows: “Presi
dent Harrison will not be able to build up a
white party in the south. It is born and
bred essentially democratic, and cannot be
changed from it. The Republican party
missed its opportunity at the close of the
war and in the succeeding years. If it had
chosen a wise policy then it would have
divided the south.
THK MIGHT HAVE BEEN.
“When I was elected governor of Missis
,inm in ISG9 there was a large white vote
cait for mo, and when Gov. Ames defeated
mein 1873 I received 25,000 more white
vo tes than he did. He was a carpet
hacger and the people wouldn’t have him,
and overthrew his administration. If Grant
had sustained me at the time of my election
there would have been a white Republican
•arty which would have held the state.
The southern people will not have negro
rule. The negro is not a white man with a
black skin.
A DIFFERENT RACE.
“He is a different race. He is a barba
rian and barbarians cannot rule civilized
people. His head is covered with wool.
He is a sheep. The white man has straight
hair like a lion. The negro is an infant.
He has the flat nose, the retreating chin,
the protruding lips of an infant. It will
take centuries of development to thoroughly
fit him for civilization. Take a dozen white
babies and a dozen negro habies, put thorn
in a room where there is a Are, and cover
them with a sheet. You can tell the white
from the colored without seeing them.
HOW IT CAN BE TOLD.
“The colored children will work around
till their heads are toward the fire. They
want the warmth and the warm air, they
Bre tropical. The white children will have
their feet to the fire and their heads away.
They want the oxygen of the cooler air. It
is a racial difference, and the strong race
will rule.”
FLORIDA'S METROPOLIS.
A Big Crowd Spends the Day at Pa
blo Beach.
Jacksonville. Fla., April 30.—Hun •
dredsof people from Jacksonville were at
Pablo Beach this afternoon aud evening,
aDd much interest was manifested in the
races there.
The bicycle race, three miles, for the
Christopher gold medal,was won by Howitt
of St. Augustine. Time 11 minutes and 18
seconds. The five mile race, for the Jack
sonville and St. Augustine railway diamond
medal, was easily won by E. M. Sanderson,
the present holder, whose time was 20
minutes and 30 seconds. The mile race, for
the champion med-I, held by H. G. Conway,
was run by him and C. A. Clark. Conway
won, but owing to informality in the start
the race was declared off.
The individual drill m the evening was
largely attended. Lieut. Boyiston of the
Metropolitan Light Infantry won, aud was
banqueted at Murray hall by his company.
The day closed with a baU at Murray hail.
SALE OF A BOAT.
The steamer Rosa of the Deßary line has
been sold to the Columbia Navigation and
Commercial Company of New York. The
boat is reported to have brought
1(12,000. She will be taken to
Carthagena, South America, and
run on thß river Seine in the Uuited
States of Colombia. She will be one of a
fleet of four steamers wnich this compauy
will ran in that conntry to carry the
Spanish mail, they having a five year con
tract with the Colombian government to

‘What did you do about the court mar
tial of Private King of the Jacksonville
Light Infantry?” asked the News corres
pondenct of one of the officers of that
tribunal this morning. “Well, I can’t give
away the decision,” replied the man with
the epaulets, “but we 6ent our
finding to the governor, who, as
commander of the troops, will announce
it publicly when be feels like it.” From the
manner in which the officer spoke, the re
porter is rather inclined to believe that the
court found Private King guilty of insub
ordination, but recommended leniency.
The penalty for this is a fine or imprison
ment.

“ BRINQIN’ up CHILDREN.”
Rearing a Big- Army of Boys and Girls
with the View of Bringing the Family
Name to the Front.
From the Detroit free Pi ess.
One day I halted at the cabin of a North
arolinian named Nisbit, and I saw so
many children around that I asked if he
was keeping school or running an orphan
asylum.

“The pore, onery soul!” sighed Mrs. Nis
bit.
“And tbar’s me,” contined the man, as he
changed knees and spit into the wood-box.
“Yes, thar’s me. I’m onery. I’m lazy-. I’m
on the squat. I’m so and >g-gono shuckless
and mean that b’ars won’t eat me. I hain’t
got the ambishun to swap mewls or make
moonshine whisky. The only good thing
about me is the feeliu’ that the name of
Nisbit has been rolled in the mud and
drawed through tho muck till I’ve got
ashamed of it. Yes, sab, stranger, when
you stopped at the doah and axed me if
my name was Nisbit I was ashamed to own
it. ”
"Yes, he’un feels that way, dog gone him 1”
said the wife.
“And so you’ve got a scheme?” I que
ried.
“I hev. The name of Nisbit has got to
be silver-plated agin and perch aloft on the
banner of —of—wall, she’s got to roost near
tho top of the tree. The day has got to cuin
when the Nisbits kin w’ar broadcloth and

“What is the scheme, if 1 may ask?’
"It’s bringiu’ up them children to know
suthin’. Yere, Absolam, cum yere.”
Absolam was a boy of 15, and he toed the
mark without any hesitation.
“Absolam, who was the first man?”
“Adam.”
“Whar did he’un hang out?”
"Garden of Eden.”
"Who killed his brother?’
"Cain.”
“Who slew Goliah?”
“David.”
“That’ll do. Go back to that ’tater patch
an’ work till I call ye. Ye see, stranger,
Absolam is to be a preacher. I’m bendin’
he’un’s mind fur it, aud givin’ him the
ground work. Jefferson, come forth ’’
Jeff was a year younger. He came to the
scratch and v/as asked:
"Who’s the highest man in these Yunited

"The President.”
“How ar’ congress composed?”
"Of Senate and House.”
“Who’s the highest man in No’th Caro

"Th 9 guv’nor.”
“That’ll do. Go and dig roots till crib

Thomas was about 13, and had been roost

“Thomas, how many parties ar’ they?”
“Two—Democrat and Republican.”
“Which ar’ the hevtieot?”
"The Democrats.” (This was a year
ago).
“How often kin a feller vote?”
“Only once.”
“What’s a candidate?”
“Feller who runs fur office.”
“That’ll do, and you kin go to the ’tater
patch and hoe two rows. I’m gwine to

He’s climbin’ like a young ba’r with a dog

Cum yere, Peter.”
Peter was of an uncertain age, with rags
enough fo.- four boys of bis size. He was
in the wood-box, but he came out at the
call, evidently anxious to show off.
"”eter, what’s good fur worms?” asked
the father.
"Jim weed and ’lasses.”
“What takes bile off the stomach?"
“Wild onion tea.”
“What cures fits?”
“Rubbin’ with hot water.*
"What cures cramps?”
“Whisky.”
“And dog-gone me if I’ve got a drop in
the house! That’ll do, Peter; you go ’nfind
that mewl and bring him home. I’m gwine
to make a doctor of he’un, stranger. Wash
ington, over thar, is gwine to be a lawyer.
Perry will boa merchant, and so it goes on
through down to that dratted tow-head a
drinkin’ out of the washdish, who has got to
boa steamboat canting, or I’ll hang his hide
on the fence. What dy’e think of the
scheme?”
“It’s good, but you have some girls
here. ”
“So I hev, but they’ve got to work in.
Arthusa, thar, she’s gwine to paint picters.
Hbe’im don’t want to, but, drat her long
feet, she’s got to. Jessamine, over thar,
ehe’sgwine to write poetry. It curas uateral
to her. Emily, the next, is gwine to be a
school teacher. Thar hoiat one of the Ut
ter but what’s got suuthin’ figgared out fur
him or her, and it's in the Kiraight line of
bnugin’ the name of Nisbit to the front.
I may not live to see the records stored up
in the escutcheons and the archives hung
up on the banners of victory, but you will.
It’s a-breediu’. It’s a-bormn’. She’s got to
resurrect. Sit down to cribbin, stranger.
It’s only pone and bacon and barley coffee,
but she bound to cum. Twenty years hence
these yere children will welcome ye with
the stuffedost turkey that rich folks kin
sling oil a table.”
Arul Mrs. Nisbit asked a brief blessing,
and then turned to me and said:
“Pore critter! Hain’t you got: no pros
pects nor nuthin’ ahead of ye to make ye
feel happy ?”
A Profitable Hand Shaking.
The. Rev. B. Thomas in fit. Louis Globe-Demo
a-at.
It was some years since, in tlie Ozark region,
where 1 was riding a circuit, that 1 saw a minis
ter enjoy a most sub itantiul band-shaking.
Shaking hands was his iieculiarity. He believed
In the potency of a cordial grasp to win men to
the church. And though successful in winning
souls, he was very unfortunate in the mat ter of
getting dollars. In fact, poverty continually
stared him in the face. He owned a little farm,
anil mortgaged it as long as it would yield a
dollar. The mortgages were fatlin? due, but
there was no prospect of paying them. But it
did not bother him a bit. He shook hands more
and heartier t nan ever. "I have unbounded fait li
in hand shaking to bring everything out right.”
he often said, until his penchant came to he the
talk of the town. At last came the day when
the mortgagee must be toreclosed that would
deprive him of the little home that
sheltered his family. On the eve of
that day a knock at the door of his
house, which was a little way from town,
called him. When he opened the door a whole
crowd rushed in and, without saying a word,
commenced shaking hands. He felt something
cold in the hand of the first man. and when the
hand was withdrawn it stuck tohisown. “That
is the moot substantial shake I ever experi
cooed, ” he said, as he held up a :$5 gold piece.
Hut llie next man stepped up and a silver dollar
was left in the preacher's prim. No one would
say a word In explanation, but pressed iu on
him as fast as bo could stick the metal and bills
into his pockets. The house was not large
enough for the visitors, each one of whom de
posited from SI to 81b ui tha uutstreched hand
Knob left the moment his little errand was
acoompliehed, and noL a word could be bad in
explanation, except the last one. who, as he
turned logo, remarked: "tVe wanted to play a
little Joke on you, and we have.” The sev.-ral
"jokes” ne ted just S7HI. Ells home was saved
aiid a neat balance was left besides. The min
i.-itor maintained that he Imfl contract# i a habit
that night that, for a year afterward when lie
shook a hand prompted him to look into bis
own palm, half expecting to see u piece of
metal there.

THE MORNING NEWS: WEDNESDAY, MAY 1, 1880.
GEORGIA S BAR ASSOCIATION.
Arrangements for Its Annual Meeting
in Savannah Next Week.
Arrangements are being perfected for
the annual meeting of the Georgia Bar As
sociation v> hich will be held in Savannah
next Wednesday. Hon. P. W. Meldrim,
chairman of the executive committee of the
association said, yesterday- that the attend
ance will be large, as the rates of faro will
be low next week from all points in Georgia
to Savannah. Mr. Meldrim received a let
ter yesterday- morning from Macon inform
ing him tbit Judge Gusliu has adjourned
court to enable membe s of the Maeou bar
to complete their preparations for attending
the meeting of the association.
At a meeting of the bar of Savannah,
the following committee of arrangements
was appointed to look after the visitors:
A. R. Lawton, Jr., A. Minis, Jr., J. R. An
derso:i, Esq., Hon. F. G. dußig.ion and
Hon. P. W. Meldrim. This committee will
meet later in the week for consultation.
The meetings of the association will be
held in the hall of the Georgia Hussars,
Hon. llashall J. Ciarke, presiding, and will
last two or three days.
The executive committee of the associa
tion has been called to meet at the law
office of Garrard & Meldrim Tuesday May
<, at 10 o’clock a. m. to fix upon the
programme of exercises for the sessions of
the association. Tnis committee will also
act upon tho applications of those who de
sire to become memuerg of the association.
This committee is composed of Hon. P. W.
Meldrim, chairman, and Messrs. A. E.
Erwin, Washington Dessau and W. H.
Fleming. The executive committee has
fuli power to admit applicants to become
members of the association, when the latter
is not in session, and any member of the
bar in Georgia in good standing is eligible
to membership.
A parlor lias been tendered the bar asso
ciation at the Screven bouse, which will be
tho headquarters of the association, and the
Southern Travelers’ Association has invited
the membfers to accept a special tram for a
ride to Tybee next Wednesday afternoon,
as tho travelers’ guests.
The visiting lawyers will expect to meet
with an open welcome at the iiands of the
Savannah bar. In fact they will expect,
and are not likely- to be disappointed, such
hospitality as Savannah is justly noted for.
At tho last meeting of the association, held
in Atlanta last August, Hon. John W.
Akin of Cartersville said that “we all
know how giad the Atlanta bar was to
have us here when we first came—they took
us to ride in carriages. We came the next
year, but we did not get the carriages, ami
we have never had them since.” The
speaker said lie had no doubt that t :e mem
bers of the Savannah bar will bo delighted
to have the association with them and give
them carriages, “aud perhaps something
else if they could get us.” The speaker
said he could imagine nothing more de
lightful than a visit to Savannah in May.
The members of the bar here say that,
Mr. Akin w ill not be disappointed in his
oarriagß drive, but that he will be driven
to all the beautiful suburban resorts, and
have no cause to regret his speech in his
resolution to hold the annual meetings of
the association successively at the several
larger cities of tho state. Mr. Akin in
elu ed Augusta, Macon, Gainesville and
Rome in his complimentary remarks
alluding to Savannah.
Maj. C. 11. Smith (Bill Arp) will read a
paper on "Lawyers: As Seen by a Re
formed Lawyer.” Chief Justice Fuller has
been invited to deliver the annual address.
O-her papers will be read by distinguished
members of the bar of the state.

Two Little Girls.
I have two little girls—one 2 and the
other 4 years of ago. They were both very
badly afflicted with eruptions on the face
and neck. Sometimes when they would
strike the sores against anything, they
would bleed as tag ‘as ten minutes: they
were in fact o painful that we had to tie
up the bauds of the younger with soft rags
to prevent her from scratching off the flesh.
They suffered in this way for about eight
in nths, during which time we tried several
remedies without any relief. Seeing Swift’s
Specific was recommended highly, 1
discarded all other remedies ad
bought ouo bottle of it, and
gave to the children, and it cured
bith sound and well, aud they are now en
tirely free from any sort of trouble. There
is nothing as good for blood and skin trou
bles as S. 8. S. VV. L. Woodward.

The Future of Photography.
From Scribner'a Magazine.
The ease with which photographs can
now be takau by <uiv one is destined to
have an important influence upon science,
art, and literature. It must not be sup
posed, however, that with the cheapness of
material, and simplicity in applying it,
perfection in the art of photography is any
nearer to its votary than it was when tho
difficult wet plate was in vogue. Pictures
can be taken more readily than formerly;
but the conditions of light and comp witiou
remain as difficult as ever—and the amateur
every year throws behind him bis quickly
taken photographs and discovers that art is
still long.
The improvements in photography have
resulted from the labors of the chemist
rather than from th se of the optician and
the maker of lenses. Indeed, ouo of the
most remarkable features of photography
is the simplicity of the apparatus which is
neces-ary. This simplicity perhaps might
have been foreseen by a careful study of the
human eye. The eye of every person may
be said to constitute a detective oamera.
The retina is the dry plate upon which
all objects are focused by means of
the crystalline lens; the cavity be
hind this lens constitutes tho camera,
the iris and pupil the diaphragm,
and the eyelid the drop-shutter. The latter,
it is true, is a slow drop-shutter—not faster
than a tenth of a second—whereas the
drop-shutter that Is employed to take an
express train may move as fast as the one
hundredth of a second, or ten times as fast,
ns tho eyelid. The eye gives the brain a
number of composite impressions of an
object in motion, while the sensitive plate
and the drop s .utter of the camera can
give but one phase of the motions. It does
not, seem jus , therefore, that the photo
grapher should insist that the sculptor or
artist should cony certain instantaneous
attitude! of animals in motion, for the eye
does not see them.
Ex-President Soto of Honduras whose home
is now in Paris, has returned to the United

he left this country he has Written a history
of Central America, for which he was

Spain
