THE TELEGRAPH.
MACON, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 1869.
The Mississippi Election
Takes place on the 30th of the present month,
and if we may believe Judge Dent, with assured
prospects of his success by a heavy majority.—
Judge Dent is the nominee of the “Conserva
tive Republicans,” with the acquiescence and
support of Mississippi Democrats. The latter
feel themselves compelled to buy a right to

pa tell to the Louisville Courier says: “Some

field is said to have expressed fears that a party
in Washington intended to make him a scape
goat. If so, ho will be likely to tell some plain
truths after bo is out of office.
_Mks. Stowe.—John Murray, the London
publisher, announces that the London Quarter
ly Review for October will contain hitherto un
published letters from Lady Byron to Mrs.
Leigh, 1816, which completely disprove Mrs.
Beecher Stowe’s story. The elder Murray hav
ing been Byron’s publisher, any statement
emanating from this well known house is au
thoritative. The Review will be republished
by the Leonard Scott Publishing Company early
in November; and all who wish to secure a copy
of this number should make immediate applica
tion, either direct to the publishers, or to a local
agent.
Latest Style.—The last New York bride
wore a rich dress of white satin, made with a
long train, and trimmed around tbo edge with
heavy white tulle mchings. The overskirt was
looped npat the sides and id the back, enprinter,
and also trimmed with a niching of tulle. The
waist was made with a very low corsage, with
the Parisian puff or band sleeve. The bridal
veil was of fine white tulle, and was worn over
the face by the bride on entering and leaving
the church, and daring the ceremony.
Good Old Rabun.—Christy, of the Athens
Watchman, says he was in Rabun the other day,
and “ as an evidence of the good morals of the
people of Rabun connty, the foreman of the
grand jury, the Hon. Horace Cannon, informed
us when we were there at court, that, from the
organization of the county—fifty-odd years ago
—to the present time, there has not been a sin
gle public execution in that county!"
The Romo Courier says: Cass county took
nearly all the premiums on blooded and fast
horses. With such men as Waring, Milam, the
Stiles Brothers, Turnlin. and others of that ilk
this is not surprising. We congratulate Bartow
upon the possession of such men as these. Her
record at the State Fair will bo good, wo ven
ture to say. Will not our people pay attention
to this subject and help Captain May to have,
tome stock premiums at home ?
The President’s Message.—The President is
reported by the newsgstherers to be in all tho
agonies of composition- He began to write his
First Annual Message on Monday, and all visit
ors havo since been excluded from his august
presence. Much curiosity is felt as to the man
ner in which Grant will acquit himself in the
composition of this, his first, State paper.
Fink is the Woods.—We understand, says
the Columbus Sun and Times, there was an ex
tensive fire in the woods, about five' miles from
the city, on the Macon road, Monday night. A
good deal of timber burned, and hard work was
required to keep the flames from fences and
houses. ' .
A person named Folger was on Tuesday ap
pointed AssistantXJnitedStatesTreasurerin place
Of Butterfield. Fifteen female clerks in the Cur
rency Bureau were Rent to New York to count
tho money in tho Snb-Treasnry, nnd to verify
Butterfield’s account.
Wanted.—The Athens Watchman wants three
thousand more new subscribers,which is the very
thing the Telegraph has been after for a long
time. But to show that wo are more reasonable
than CoL Christy, we would, on a pinch, compro
mise with twenty-five hundred.

The 19Tn Century for November was re

Dispatch of the 11th:
Nearly Done.—Wo learn that the bridge of
tho Macon and Brunswick Railroad Company
across the Ocmnlgee has been completed, and
that the work of construction is now going on
from both ends, at the rate of from
three-quarters to one mile per day. Some
fifteen or eighteen miles remain to be comple
ted. Trains aro expected to run throngh by the
20th, at latest. The cars are now running tri
weekly from Macon to Lumber City, a distance
of 100 miles.
Burning of Gin-Houses.—Hardly ever do we
pick up one of our exchanges, withont reading
of some gin-house having been burnt. This
thing is getting qnite too common, and it is time
the matter was being looked into. We can’t be
lieve that all these fires result from accident.
Let our farmers store their cotton as soon as
packed, and keep up a vigilant watch around
their gin-houses.
A Good Rain.—The first good rain we have
bad for lo these many weeks, fell on last Tues
day evening aiid night. We believe it rained
nearly the whole of that night, and puddles re
mained in the streets yesterday. The spell be
ing at last broken, we may look for an ample
supply of the watery element for some time to
come. The riddance from the heavy sand and
dust with which we have so long been troubled,
is a great relief to both our pedal extremities
and respiratory organs.
Cotton Market.—As will be observed, by
reference to our weekly statement, the price of
the staple has come down a little, and is still
falling. Below will be found the shipments by
railroad and receipts at the ware-house for the

General Stagnation.
There is now, and has been for a few weeks
■ last, a general stagnation in political affairs.
! tfot a ripple is visible on the placid surface, and
everything seems to be calm and serene. This
is not because the people are specially delighted
with the situation, but grows out of tho fact, we
we apprehend, that they are heartily sick and
tired of the noise and turmoil of the past few
years, and want repose.

Homicide.—Tho Columbus Sun and Times of
Wednesday says:
One of those shocking affairs which are so
unfreqnent in this quiet city, occurred yester
day about 1 o’clock in the afternoon. 'Mr. Joe
Allen, a young man 22 years of age, son of Mr.
John S. Allen, of this city, was .shot and killed
by Doe McDaniel, of Girard, a man about 35
years of ago, a bridge builder, who works on
the Mobile and Girard Railroad, below Lin-
wood. The affair occurred in Bradley’s Er-
ohange, a bar r?ciu nearly opposite our office.
SHIVERY.
A Hard Winter Impending.
Withont claiming to be specially weatherwise
ourselves, although we have some views of onr
own on thesnbjeetof the seasons, deduced from
observation, experience and study, we can not
bnt attach sufficient credit to the signs and to
kens which old hunters and woodmen on this
continent, and scientific calculators in Europe,
are adducing to sustain the prediction that we
are to have an early and severe winter through
out the Northern Hemisphere.
The beavers and prairie dogs of the West and
Northwest of America, along with many other
animals that honse themselves away in the cold
season, have greatly advanced their preparations
for the frost this year, and on the Atlantic coast
the Storm King sends ns no equivocal or infre
quent warning.
In Europe no less important an organ of
learned opinion than the Bulletin de Association
Scientifigue (Bulletin of the Scientific Sooiety)
announces that the winter of 1869-70 will be ex
ceptionally severe on the Eastern Hemisphere.
It reminds its readers of the fact that the winter
of 1868-69 was very remarkable for its mildness,
its mean temperature not having exceeded 6
deg. 65 min. The three most moderate preceding
winters of the century had been those of 1822,
1828 end 1834, when the mean temperatures
C deg., 6 deg., and 6 deg. 27 min. respectively.
Previous to our century, the only winter
among those of which the temperature was cal
culated that approached 1868-9 in mildness was
1797. The severe cold snap which came in
January last, was another point of resemblance
between these two seasons, for there was no
such lowering in the temperature in the mild
winters that we have mentioned. The other
singular accompaniments of this similarity will
attract the notice of any close observer.
M. Besou, writing to the Bulletin above men
tioned, tells the world that since the atmospheric
perturbations of 1859-60, the years have been
warmer, clearer and dryer, and the barometer
iressure lighter than before. The anomalies,
ie, thinks, cannot fail to find their compensa
tion ere long, the winter before last closely cor
responding with that of 1828, and everything
betokening that about 1870 wo shall have a great
winter like that of 1829-30.
To those whose business consists -in the sale
of all sorts of winter wear and seasonable ma
terial, this is no unwelcome news; especially
when comfort and plenty already fill their
homes; but to the poor it is alarming. Fuel,
clothing, bread and all, they npprehend, will bo
dearer, and work harder to get
Meanwhile the frightful tempests that have
recently raged along the Atlantic coast, and far
away into the interior, have destroyed heavy
stocks of grain and cattle, and although, as the
gold operators told the government before the
Wall street plot, American wheat could not be
sold in Europe to compete with the Black Sea
and Mediterranean article, while gold was as
low as the thirties, the foreign demand, in view
of the long and heavy winter, may yet help to
enhance rates for the necccssaries of'life.
As it is, we are not sorry to perceive that our
inland traders are hastening to lay in a sufficient
stock of goods while prices are comparatively
low, thus enabling their people to buy at rates
which will leave them some cash on hand for the
agricultural requirements of next year.
The savants afe not invariably right, but
there is accumulated evidence in their favor to
show that, on general indications and careful
comparisons kept up for years past, they can
make some fair pTediotions concerning the year
to come. At all events, thrift and wise precau
tion never do any harm, and should the phe-
nominally severe season thus predicted ensue,
our friends may not blame us for having given
this hint in good time.—New York Mercantile
Journal.
Habits of Some of the Cabinet.
Washington, November 7.—President Grant’s
chief mode of recreating while in Washington
is a long walk early in the morning and .a ride
after dinner. One day, for instance, the Presi
dent starts out from the White House and walkB
towards the Capitol along F street and back,
and the next day, by way of variety, takes his
coarse along Pennsylvania avenue towards
Georgetown. He may bo seen almost any
morning enjoying this pedestrian exercise. He
walks along very slowly, with one hand in his
breeches pocket and the other either holding a
cigar or thrown behind his back. A strange
little man is Grant in his walks. He never
looks to the right or left, but straight before
him, or towards the ground. and seems not to
notice any of the passers. His manner is alto
gether that of a man wrapped up in his own
thoughts and nnconscious of what is happening
about him. Many who know him pasB Presi
dent Grant in these walks, but very few venture
to join him.
BOUTWELL AS A BILLIARD 1ST.
Boutwell is a good deal of a walker also, but
his chief amusement is of another kind. Tho
financial head of the country is an enthusiastic
billiardist. To him the cue and balls 'aro a per
fect delight. After a busy day spent in close
attention to tho dry work of his department, the
elegant Governor, who, by tho way, is growing
in his manner very like unto Charles Sumner,
repairs to a select billiard saloon on Pennsylva
nia avenue, and there spends two or three hours
making his carroms. Boutwell is not a profes
sor of the scientific game, but he is a very fair
player and improves apace. Ho has a cue of
lis own, which he brings with him to the billiard
saloon nnd carries home with him when he fin
ishes playing. Georgo S. may be seen issuing
from the saloon sometimes as late as midnight.
THE OTHER MINISTERS.
Fish scarcely ever is seen in the role of a
pedestrian on the streets. He rides to and from
the State Department in a stylish little coupe,
and after official hours generally passes his time
at home in entertaining select parties at dinner.
Belknap and Robeson are great walkists. The
former- is a splendid looking gentleman, the
very picture of good health, with fine, clear,
dark eves, ruddy complexion, and a well put
together frame. He is not, as formerly describ
ed in some of the newspapers, “a bijj, red-whis
kered and red-faced fellow from Iowa.” To
sum Belknap up in that style would he doing
him great injustice. lie has quite an intellec
tual face, and carries about him a self-reliant,
independent air, that stamps him as a man of
decided character. He has made a very good

nUABEBT ON THE WAR
PATH.
He Hashes Round Generally.
[We publish from the New York Independent
the following remarkable letter, as it originally
appeared. Although our readers have already
seen extracts from it in the Telrgbaph, they

a most remarkable utterance, and from an un
impeachable witness, bo far at least as relates to
the character and course of the Radicals in the

The South as it Is.
by passes pillsbubt.
Washington, D. O., October,. 1869.
To the Editor of the Independent: All who
travel in the Southern States since the war can
learn lessons, if they will, unknown to them be
fore. Many have reported their impresses to
yon already, but all is net yet told. I am afraid
the worst is yet unknown. Indeed, I think tiro
North knows less of the actual South to-day
than of almost any other portion of the globe.
Republicanism bears rule there, and reports it
self to please itself. Counter authorities, espe
cially from Democratic sources, are oast aside as
unworthy of confidence, as no doubt they often
are.
“beconbtbuction is a failure.”
But it is timeone thing was told, and believed,
too, everywhere; and that is that reconstruc
tion, so far, is a failure. It is a bad failure.—
From the sole of its foot to its head, if it have
any head, there is no soundness in it, none
whatever. It began where it should have left
off, with political organizations, with suffrage
and sovereignty, when the first lessons in civili
zation had uot been learned, had not been
taught, and have not yet been taught. Bat
party supremacy required the measure, and it
was adopted, against all the dictates of genuine
statesmanship, as well as the demands of jus
tice and humanity. And hence its failure, as
could not but have been expected.
PARKER WAS AN ORIGINAL ABOLITIONIST.
If tho Democratio party expects to be com
forted by any word of mine on the present con
dition and needs of the South, it will be disap
pointed. Slavery was the one sole cause of tho
terrible devastation and desolation under which
the South reels to-day, and from which it can
not recover in a hundred years under any poli
cy. Nor under the present policy in a thousand,
if ever. And it is not possible for the human
mind ever to forget the unceasing and unhal
lowed support tho Democratic party rendered
that system until the Infinite Patience conld en
dure it no longer,.and in righteous wrath, at
one fell stroke, stove down the god, altar and
worshipers, and left them a shapeless, ghastly
ruin.
“THE REPUBLICAN PABTVDID NOT ABOLISH SLA
VERY.”
Neither political party understood the situa
tion during tho war of rebellion. Neither party
understands it to-day. Slavery was not abo
lished by the abolitionists. Still less was it
abolished by the Republican party. In spirit
and power, it survives even thp war, with all its
woes. Like everything else at the South, it is
a ruin—but it is there. Both master and slave
are there. And more at war than ever before.
“THE NORTHERN REPUBLICAN DOES NOT LOVE THE
SLAVE.”
And so far the Northern element infused be
tween them, instead of reconciling, has only
made matters worse. T.he Northern Republican
hates the master, but does not love tho slave.
The North never loved tho negro raco better
than did the South. It did not abolish the slave
system in form for the sake of the victims, nor
at all until driven to the measure by the stem
exigency of military necessity for self-preserva
tion. So far as any sense of justice and human
ity over were intended, it was manifest enough
beans, with plenty of potatoes, bad harvested
fifty bushels of exoellent rice, kept a horse, a
mule, two cows, with pigs and poultry on all
sides of his honse (inside not exoepted, so far
as poultry was concerned ;) and yet, with the
exception of one plain bat cabinet-made rocking-
chair, and one glass goblet, carefully kept
wrapped in a clean sheet of straw paper, and
brought out to give me and my friends a drink
of water, the furnishing of the honse did not
differ materially from those I have described.
PILL8BURY TURNS UP HIS NOSR AT aMX. KABIOx’s
DXMNBB.
We were treated to roasted sweet potatoes,
which an old grandmother pawed out of the hot
ashes with her hands, and replaced with others,
which she covered in the same independent
way, no shovel nor tongs ever being used, seen
or. known.
Drunkenness is not confined to class or color,
in any of the States I havo seen. Many say
“ the nigger and the Indian have natural tastes
and tendencies for stimulants.” Bnt with-the
former it would be safe to attribute it to his im
itative natnre or disposition, coming, as he ne
cessarily does, into too close contact with the
whites. I certainly never saw such need of a
temperance reform before, anywhere under
heaven. I well remember the drinking habits
of New England long before the thundering elo
quence of the old Dr. Beecher (sire of many
sons) was denouncing every grog-shop and bar
room as “ a breathing hole of hell!" But never
have I seen- such wasting ravages, by drunken
ness, of all moral and spiritual wealth, as here,
now at full four o’clock in the afternoon of the
nineteenth century. The calm appeal of
Father Mathew, and the glowing, fiery zeal of a
John B. Gongh, are needed in every elective
district throughout the Southern States. Down
right drunkenness cannot be Baid to bo an om
nipresence ; bnt habitual and destructive drink
ing is. Those who do not drink themselves (of
whom, alas! there aro but few) furnish it for
their friends, patrons, customers, and especially
on election occasions to their supporters—too
often in deluges and torrents.
NORTHERN TEMPERANCE MEN DEINX WHISKY IN THE
SOUTH.
No class of politicians, from North or South,
can plead exemption from this fearful charge.
Young men and old men, who perhaps never
tasted ardent spirits'in their lives before going
to the South, now drink the horrible beverages
here concocted habitually, and many of them to
fearful excess. And, worse still, will provide
them for the poor, besotted colored people
whenever vote3, better bargains, or better work
or more of it, can be had thereby.
• Private virtue among public men is not look
ed for, not expected, not even desired. And
this is as true here in Washington as farther
South or farther North. x
PARKER SEES LEARNED ALDERMEN.
I havo seen Aldermen when sitting at the
City Council Board so drunk as that they had to
be removed by tho police before busine'ss could
proceed. I have eeen Aldermen and Council-
men who not only could neither write nor read,
but who exhibited littio capacity for public
business, even when sober. And only yesterday
I read in a newspaper an account, by an eye
witness, of a Judge in Abbeville, down in South
Carolina, on the bench so drunk as that he had
to be taken home by his friends and the court
adjourned. The clerk, it was added, was about
as drunk as tho Judge. Whoever travels throngh
the South with eyes and ears open will have no
difficulty in believing all this and more, were it
needful to be told. And it is absolutely needful
that it should be told.and published through the
nation, if we would save our nation from the
doom of Sodom and Gomorrah.
THE SOUTH CAROLINA LEGISLATURE CAN NEITHER
BEAD NOR WRITE.
A majority of the Legislature of South Caro
lina are colored men, and many of them can

The Chapman Bisters.
The Montgomery Daily Advertiser of Wed
nesday, says:
Last night opened tho season of these gifted
young sisters in Montgomery. They are ably
sustained by Mr. C. B. Bishop, who proves him
self to bo one of tbo finest commedians on tbe
stage. The other members of the company
gave great satisfaction.
Tho Misses Chapman sustained in full the
reputation that preceded them, and we advise
all who really admire histrionic talent of tbe
highest order to attend the Theatre during tho
present week. They are tho daughters of that
sterling actor, the late Henry Chapman, whose
career on the stage was a series of ovations*—
He may be said to have .rendered many char
acters famous. Throngh tbe Drakes, who have
contributed somo of tbe brightest names to the
American stage, they get by inheritence still
another vein of talent. ' This we see happily
combined in Blanche and Ella Chapman, tho
chief characteristics of those two histrionic
names, Chapman and Drake. A word as to
their personal appearance. Miss Blanche is
tali, lithe and graceful in figure, with well cut,
delicate features, lovely mouth and teeth, large,
tender looking eyes, full of sensibility and feel
ing, while a wreath of golden hair shadows a
brow of snow. Add to this a sweet, low voice
in speaking, and one fall of musical pathos
when singing, and faultless taste in dress, and
you have an imperfect picture. Miss Ella is a
nice little, thing, with an exquisite figure, an
arch, winning, bewitching look, and a thousand
ways which render her quite irresistible. She
is a dramatic chameleon who takes her color
from whatever she plays and “touches nothing
that she doeB not adorn.” She has ono of tho
brightest, merriest faces in the world, and
seems .to be brimful of mischief and fun. She
is puck personified in weird pranks and pretty
8&uciness.
The North German Navy, since the acquire
ment of porta on the Baltic, has been rapidly
increasing, and greater interest is folt among
the people in maritime affairs. Tho German
Society in aid of the shipwrecked is constantly
receiving additions of members and contribu
tions, and the operations of tbe association ore
becoming more extended. The sympathy with
the shipwrecked sailors is not confined to the
coast districts, and tho society recently received
a donation of $8000 from a resident of Bonn.
The “I’ca-Xnt Picker.”
Among the various labor-saving machines on
exhibition at our Fair few atttracted more at
tention than the “pea-nut picker,” the invention
of Rev. W. A. Crocker, of Norfolk. The object
to bo gained was attended with xuuoh difficulty.
Owing to the delicate natnre of tho hull of the
pea it could not be subjected to tho violent ac
tion of the ordinary threshing machines, which
would fracture them. Tbe separation of the
pea from the chaff and stems, and the good
pea from the pop, or sap pea, was attended
with still greater difficulty, owing to the light
ness of the pea and the very small difference
in the weight of the good and tbo faulty ones.
These difficulties have been fully overcome
in thus machine. The peas aro thoroughly sep
arated from tho vine, without injuring tho hull,
and by an original, but simple arrangement in
tho fan, a nice discrimination is made between
the different qualities of peas—a part or nearly
all the faulty peas being thrown out, os the op
erator may choose.
The machine has been operating successfully
in Isle of Wight for several weeks, and has mot
with tbe approval and commendation of the
farmers of that section who have witnessed its
work.
During tho Fair, hundreds from pea-growing
sections of Virginia and North Carolina have
had an opportunity of seeing ils practical work
ing. But one opinion has been expressed by
all who have seen it, and that of nnqualfied
approbation.
The present one is a-light two-horse power
machine. Its capacity is from 200 to 400 bush
els per day, according to tho quality of tho peas
and condition of the vines. It is eight feet long,
three feet wide, four and a half high, and
weighs about 800 or 1,000 pounds. They can
be made of any size, from a hand machine to a
ten-horse power.
The machine is destined to have a great in
fluence on the production of this valuable crop.
Hitherto these peas had to be picked off the
vines by hand. Four bushels per day is con
sidered a fair average for a hand. A farmer
who raised 1,000 bushels (and many raise four
or five times that quantity) would require ten
hands two months to save his crop, at a cost of
fifteen cents per bushel. If the amount eaten
and carried off is added, the cost will not be less
than tweaty cents. The crop raised on the south
side of James river, between Petersburg and
Norfolk, is estimated at 1,000,000 bushels per
annum. To save this crop would require the
labor of 6,000 hands for two months, at a cost of
$200,000.
These figures will serve to show the import
ance and utility of this machine. We are not
surprised to learn that it was awarded a pre
mium.—Richmond Whig.
Equestrian Statue to General Grant.—
Washington, Nov. 5.—The Committee having in

The statuo will bo of bronze, oast from a cannon

tho pedestal is to bo a single block of granite.
It will ba erected upon tho terrace on tho south

of the statue will be about twenty-fivo feet, ex

Treasury Department, will hnve tho south front

Another Fire.—Another alarm of fire was
given on Saturday nightabont 9 o’clock, and tho
citizens and fire companies rushed forth to find
the extensive barns and stables on the Braswell
slavery unto this day, and unto the judgment
day, had not tho preservation of the nationality
imperiously ordered and compelled otherwise.
Year after year tbo South fought, for slavery,
without Union; the North fought for the Union,
regardless of slavery; for a ‘‘Union with slave
holders."
THE REPUBLICAN PARTY NEEDS THE BLACK MAN S
BALLOT.
And now the Republican party needs the
black man’s ballot at the South, and is using it
for its own preservation, as his bayonet and
bnliet were used for the national salvation.
And he is fast finding it out. Even in his own
low estate he is learning who are not his friends.
And his estate is lower than even the most ex
treme Abolitionists ever described it. There is
no tongue, no pen, no language to describe
what slavery must have been, judged even by
tbo gloomy shadows of it which survive. I
would that Mr. Garrison and Wendell Phillips
could spend one month in the cotton fields and
rice swamps of the Carolina3 and Georgia. I
have seen only the Atlantic States ; but these
are tho best.Jnot the worst. They would sooh
see that suffrage is not the one thing .needful
for the emancipated slaves, men nor women ;
however it might have been for the interests of
a party; and above all things, nnless that suf
frage were directed by a far other than the
present order of politicians there.
For it must b8 said that far the larger part of
the Northern men at the South have partaken
in the general moral and political corruption
that ruled there so long. That ruled until the
present ruin followed.
PILLSBUBY SAYS THE NEGRO “STEALS FRIGHT
FULLY.”
Many havo undertaken to cultivate the land
by hiring tho former slaves and paying them
wages. But in nine instances out of every ten
they havo failed altogether, though paying
wages on which it is hardly possible tho labor
ers can live withont begging or stealing, both of
which are practiced there to a frightful extent.
Almost any man who employs any considerable
number of hands keep3 a little store of groce
ries and provisions, nnd pays them out of it.
And usually tho week’s work is all taken up, so
that scarcely ono in a hundred can improve his
condition under this order of things.
THE SOETHEBN WHITE MAN SWINDLES THE NEGRO.
I saw gang after gang paid off at night, some
times fifty or sixty at a time, and not five dol
lars in money was paid to the whole of them.
For com they allow fifty cents a peck; for ba
con, which yon and I would not eat at any price’,
they gave twenty-five cents a pound; and the
prices of labor varied from half a dollar to a
dollar a day. I have seen sturdy, healthy young
fellows, of twenty and upward, working for two
dollars a week and boarding themselves. I «aw
women doing days’ work that no white man in
New England or New York cc»W do at any

of these stores keep very decent articles, but
not all.

very best friends assured me that they should
never see such again for the sake of the colored
race itself—uot even to save the State from tho

to easily understand that it must be so.
COLORED VOTES AT FIVE DOLLARS APIECE.
At the opening of tho session, colored votes
were easily bought at five dollars, though later
they rose on their price.
YANKEES COVERING THE WOOL.
One shrewd Yankee from Massachusetts, [not
Tim ?] not a member, bnt who had some schemes
to lobby through the Legislature, carried to tiro
capita! some cases of new hats; and with them
as legal-tender drove qnite a spirited and suc
cessful business. Sad examples for white North
ern Republicans to set before a people just
emerging from tho darkest degradation and
cruelest, bloodiest bondage and oppression that
ever scourged the human race! With all the
frightful realities of their past history still
crushing them down, with tho withering preju
dice against their color still raging around them
on every hand, and with such examples continu
ally set before them by those whom they not
only regard as the superior race, but have been
told a thousand times aro their best and only
friends—what wonder that they are not to-day
many of them, oaeldegree higher in the scale of
moral being than when their freedom was first
proclaimed 1 To me it seems absolutely com
plimentary to human nature’that they have done
no worse.
. It is often said at the North, and in the South
as well, that what is most needed here is capital.
That - is not true. What the South needs most
is men and women. Not adventurers, mere
plunderers, as so many are Who have gone there
smeethe war, seeking whom and what they may
devour—ravenous beasts, who only go forth to
seek their prey, intending to go back to their
native Northern dens to riot on and enjoy it af
terwards. The South needs intelligent men and
women, of industrious, virtuous and thriving
habits, who will go there and identify themselves
with the South, to share her fortunes for better,
for worse—men who shall regard the colored
man for more than his vote, and the colored
woman for more than her virtue, and both as
important to them only os they can income wav
subserve their own interest, oovnenience and
pleasure, with no thought whatever as to what
shall be the fate of thdr victims. Formerly few
labored at the South except slaves and free col
oredpeople. That the native Southerner should
still hold to his old idea and habit of idleness is
not strange. But almost every Northern man
who comes at once contracts the same. Very
few wliite men intend to work here any more
than did the slaveholders fifty years ago. La
bor is about as disreputable now as ever.
YANKEES CHEATING THB TOOB NEGRO.
And Northern men are to-day all through the

of the Eternal God had not been blasting such

! some as planters, but more as politicians, and of
a low order, many of them, too. The young
Western emigrant who wrote back to his father,
a disappointed office-seeker in Vermont, to come
to tho West, and urged as a reason that “most
almighty mean men conld getinto office,” would
find good gronnd for auch argument all throngh
the Southern States. With such resources as
the North is now furnishing the South in great
measure, her last state must inevitably be worse
than the first.
There aro two elements in action at the South,
of which I have not yet spoken—her churches
and her schools. Of the former X have only to
say that for almost a hundred years they de
fended and practiced slaveholdtag, with all its
heathenism, cruelty and beastiaJity; seeking
thoir argument in the Old Testament, the New
Testament, and the Apocrypha to boot; sepa
rating by sale, husbands and wives who were
also members of the same church, and justify
ing it on the ground, as they said and published,
“that such separation is civilly a separation by
death, and we believe that in the sight of God
it will be so viewed.” All this, and more and
more and worse, the churches did, and sane-
tioned and sanctified. And so far as I can see,
they are still just the same churches in form,
spirit and power, and just as'disastrous in their
influence as ever before; and so nothing good
can be expected of them.
The one ground of hope for the South is in
often been told, the same diet serves nearly all
the white people also. I have hoard of “ hog
and hominy ” as a Southern bill of fare com
plete long time ago; but had no idea how lite
ral or how general was its application.
A FINE OPENING FOB FURNITURE DEALERS.
The old slave quarters, unrepaired, are still
the colored people’s homes. Among all iheir
houses in the rural districts, I have not seen one
pane of glass; not one set of crockery, earthen
or iron-ware, beyond a rude and often broken
pot, with iron or tin-spoons, that certainly were
never made lighter by scouring; scarcely any
chairs or tables but of homo manufacture; and
not one decent bed in any cabin—not one! Some
of tho women were rather tidily dressed, as I
have seen them; nnd on Sundays, I am told,
they appear qnite well. But many of the men
might defy all the scare-crows of a thousand
corn-fields. Some of the infante I have seen
were entirely naked, and boys of at least a dozen
years old wore but a single garment; and that
only a scanty apology in length, breadthor thick
ness. And at least fonr kinds of vermin, smaller
than rate and mice, infest many a human bed,
its coarse covering, or its occupants, or all to
gether. Ask the Union soldiers who survived
the campaign of the Southern States whether
this be exaggeration.
