Some ot them thought well of the plan, while others were of the opinion that this country was good enough for them. It is a very grave question whether the negro would be better off iu Africa than in this countiy. From all accounts Africa is uot a very •V-sirab-e place to live. No where, perhaps, certainly uot in the north, are there more favorable surroundings lor the negro to make a living than right here iu the south. It is his natural home. It is very question able whether many would accept the offer ol the government to send them to Africa freo ol charge.—Daily T.-E. O Happy Day -Gotze, Misses Greenlee, Few, Gardner and Davis.

Jarrett did not examine the dollar at the time, but next day discovered that it was span, ous. He then sought Deputy Mar shal Hurst and told him that he had received the dollar from Americus Major, and gave as his reason for being so positive that he only did a small business, and that the dollar he iretired irom the old woman was the only obo he took in that day. “The deputy went to the o'd wo man and asked heir where she got the money. She told him that abe re ceived it from a Hr. Vaughn in pay ment for her aervicea. The deputy found Ur. Vaughn, who is near sighted and old, and asked him if he gave the woman Ihe dollar. He re plied that he did, but did not know that it was spurious, as he was near sighted. “Vaughn told the deputy that he received the dollar from a young man in his employ named Andrew Uilton. When Milton was seen he said, that he bad received the money for some chickens that he eold in ThoBusville, but said he knew who parsed it on him. When asked to tell who it was he refused to say, and the deputy could not get him to tell. ‘Deputy Horst went back We are worth at least (30,000,000,000; that amount ot property assessed at one half of one mill on the dollar; an' nually, for thirty years will give ns (750,000,000, which will enable the Government to remove the laat negro this country back to Africa. The transportation from this coun try to Africa will cost about (25 per capita,-including such goods as may be necessary for them to take with them. We have at present, as stated above, about seven million negroes in the United States. Add to this num ber two million more for tha duriog the thirty years required to remove them, and then we will have nine million. Nine million at (25 per capita will cost $225,000,000. That amoaDt deducted from (750,000,000 will leave $525,000,000 to assist them getting a start in their own conn, try. In removing nine millions in thirty years, it will only require the removal of three hundred thousand an nually, which can easily be done without disturbing ur frustrating bush Americus Major’s house and placing negjin Bay „ an expenae of ^ U m1™m b Se! *f'° 00 ‘ 0W ‘ » iU friend* to Macon, where she had not of 006 ml11 ° n lhe d” 11 " our a friend in the world, xnd placed her erty.

He replied that the entire article was wrong, and was quite indignant at the injustice the paper had done him, Marshal Hurst’s version of the affair is about as follows; E. C. Jarrett went to Marshal Hurst and preferred charges against A mericus Major for passing counter feit money, and requested her arrest, lie stated bis case to the Maishal, aud seemed very anxious to have the woman arrested, in fact had written a letter, which he had not yet mailed, to the Marshal at Macon for a war rant. Marshal Horst wrote the Mar shal at Macon about the case and atked for a warrant. The Marshal tent the warrant and wrote Mr. There is another thing to take into consideration in regard to our ability send the negroes back to Africa, which is tho enhancement of the value of our property, . The very fact of separating the races and mak ing this wholly a white man's country wopld increase the value of our prop erty twice the amount it would cost to remove them, especially in the South where so much valuable land going to nanght from negro culti vation. It would giye the South an opportunity of recovering a_part of her losses sustained by the freedom ot lh) negroes. All of her rich agricul tural lauds that are now going to naught for the want of good white labor, would soon be sold to first-class white people at a good price and in a short time the whole country would blossom like a rose.

Mr. Jarrett was the prosecute! in the case and when the warrant was placed in Marshal Hurst’B hands he had nothing to do but to execute it according to instruc tions.

It seemed almost like meeting and converging with some one of my old Thomasville friends. I am glad to note the many improvements going on in Thomas ville, and to know that the town of my birth is prospering. I have many friends and relatives living there that will share in your prosperity and re joice in your good fortune. I would give much to visit you this summer and enjoy an old-fashion berry pie, and help you eat some ot the delicious fruits and melons that grow around Thomasville. My miud often reverts back to boyhood days in Thomas county, and often wish that I could live them over again, but, alas, the hand of time carries us from one Stage of life to another, never allow ing ua to retrace our steps, and to day I fiud myself in Texas, one thous and miles from my childhood scenes, battling with the world, trying iu an honest and humble way to make a living. While I miss my old friends and associates at home, 1 have no reason to complain, as J can count tried and true friends here by the score, and all my surroundings are very pleasant. Texas is a great aud grand country’ for a poor man, os many liCre can testify. I know’ of numbers of fami lies who came here penniless, that are now iu good circumstances olid re joiciug in their good fortune. W. W. Jackson. would enable ns to get a better class of emigrants from the old country; in fact, we conld change onr emigration laws so as to make onr own selection, Now, instead ot breaking ns op, it looks that we might make money ont of the operation, to say nothing of a large trade we would get from Africa Money or no money, trade or no trade, we would evidently do a great and gtorious work by separating the two races. I will now offer some reason why the negroes should and will go. Freedom is the most desirable ot all thing*? as such, we find mankind ever ready to do whatever he can to ob tain freedom. The negroes are be ginning to recognize the fact that they are not entirely free, nor never can be in this country; that they most, as long as they remain here, be ruled and governed by the whites. That vrill go whenever we are ready to help them, which we should do at for the longer we put it off the more it will cost us. Not only that, but if we put it off too long, some thing terrible may come of it. Another war over the negro would be terrible indeed!. It is evident that the two races are farther apart to day than ever before* net withstand ing we have spent millions of dollais trying to educate them up Ufa stand ard where the two races conld live in peace and harmony. Sensible negroes are beginning to recognize this fact, and fear the result. It will only be necessary for the Government to employ a v few good, able men to work the thing up on bath sides; show the negro* s their interest £q going back to Africa, a country where they can make a living with less effort than anywhere else in the world, and show the whites their interest in raising the means necessa ry to lend them back. Iu selecting men for this work, it will be necessa ry to take them from both races, as well as both political parties, so as to keep it out of party politics, and make it a joint work of the two races. It would be a good work for the chorcbes of the country, both white and black, of all denominations, for it is evident that God never intended two races of peop’e made as far apart as the Caucasians and Africans to ever become one people. We com mitted a great crime in bringing the black man to this country.. It has proved to be a curse from the begin ning' to the present. In the first place, it destroyed the peace and harmony of our country; we fussed and quarreled over the African slave trade for more than two hundred yean. Finally after spending mil lions of dollars the trade was sup pressed; it was then slavery and abolitionism which eo divided the north and sonth that nothing but war would do. We fought for four long yeais over the negro. In the mean time he was set free, but the fuss is stillon, and the negro is still in it It is now the white and black man, between whom the fuss will ever continue while the two remain together, such it wonld be wise in both to agree separate as early as possible. The white man should commence at once make amends for the crime com mitted in bringing the black man to this country, by sending him back where came from, and assist him in get ting a start in his own country. In this way we will be able to restore peace and harmony to the whole country, and do away with sectional prejudice, and make one peop'e of the north and south—and it may be the means of christianizing the whole of Africa. Heretofore, everything said and written upon this subject has fallen like a dead letter, not that we have not recognized the subject of the greatest importance, but that we have had so much trouble and excitement growing out of the war that we have not been able to discuss the negro upon his own merits. But now that we have been trying for nearly thirty years to become one people, as h were, and find ourselves frather apart than ever before, it is certainly high time we should take such steps as will enable ns to settle the question per manently. The main thing to do is agree to do it, and go about it without further delay. The longer we delay, the more trouble we will have in accomplishing what we de sire, for there is no mistake of the fact that the two races are growing apart. While the whites are preparing the way and means, the negroes should organize African Emigration Associa tions throughout the country. When thoroughly organized, they will be able to appeal through their national organization to the Government for such assistance as they may wish; in fact, they will be able to treat as a race of people with the Government just as one nation treats with another. In tiua way some general plan of ac tion may be agreed upon that will be bindjng upon both sides. The beet thing that I have ever en upon the negro question, little book of 205 pages called “An Appeal to Pharaoh.” Everybody should read the book. How Advertising Pays. The Cuthbert Liberal-Enterprise, in speaking of the pamphlet devoted to the advantages aud resources^! Randolph .county, makes some good points. - Oufcontemporary says that Florida, once thepooreststate in the union, has been built up-by advertising. Her once cheap lands are now valuable and her people are prosperous. Thomasville, fifteen years ago, was Only an average South Georgia town, but last year northern tourist left half a million dol lars there, and within the lastfive years more than $r,ooo,ooo of outside cap* ital has been invested in Thomas coun ty. A home market has been treated, employment given to labor and the rate of taxation has decreased as taxa ble values of property have increased. All of this is the direct result of town andj county advertisings This policy pays and it should be tried on a larger scaleJ>y our state.—Constitu tion. Yes; sir, town and county advertis ing pays, in fact any kind of adver tising pays, and our people realize this fact, as all progressive people should. The city council of Thomasville has but recently appropriated one thou 1 sand dollars to be expended in adver tising this summer, and it will be money well spent. Advertise judi ciously, “keep everlastingly at it,” and good results are sure to follow. This has been demonstrated a thousand times.

Have you seen the new counter that was placed in the office of the Thomasville Exchange and Banking Company yesterday? If you haven’t you should drop in and inspect it. It is a beauty, but the prettiest part of the business is it was made right here at home and made out of Geor gia pine. The work was done by the Thomasville Variety Works, of this city. It is made of selected curly and plain pine, highly polished aud artistically finished, and would be au ornament to any office in the country. There is no use sending off to have work of this character done, for it can be executed just as well and just as cheap right here at home, and the money ia spent with your own people. Always patronize home industry. Mr. I. Levy’s Thomasville friends, and this includes everybody, are delighted to see him here again.
