Beustor from Jsekson county, N. has
been Idacod in the Insane Asylum, near
Raleigh. It is thought tho |iulitienl condi

a mass meoting and were addressed by
several distinguished geullvuinu of that
State. Among them was Ucnonil Wade
Hampton, who spoke of the movement nt
one of vast Importance—not only to the
colored, but to the white man. lie advised
tho fnaidmcn to give their friends nl tho
South a fair trial, and if they wero found
wauling, it was then lime enough to go
abroad for aympatliy. It was to their in
terest to build up tlie South; for us the
country prospered, so Would they prosper.
The present state of affairs was not brought
about by tho action of tlio Southern people
—white or lilnck; therefore, neither was rt-
aponsiblo for it
Tub PmcnovI’niNTiNu Ibiruu.—A dis

lias declined to Ifi.J(«,ltl cents per pound.
Straw and mg mixed ranges from 1:14(1115

"The editor is still living, nnd hill of statis-

Jlcro is what oho of younnee declares ia
true. Ho ban bocn to Washington (5itynhd
mingled witti those who professed to bo life
friend s/and finds that tbo only .true friend
to tho negro is tho old master ufter all. In
a recent speech at a mass meoting of the
negroes at Columbia, 8. 0., 1 loverly Nash
held forth os follows:
If wo nro lo havo a Convention in tlio
Statofor the purpose of changing its Con
stitution, let it bo a Convention of lull in
tellect and power. If tho' black man is to
cast a vote, let him rest that vote upon a
standard of ability, and not lo be content
ed to seo a body of men who ore not com
petent to discharge the high duties that will
bo required of them. Wo know tho old
saying, that “fools rush in where angels
fear to tread.” If, therefore, you elect ig
norant men, you will havo a bad Constitu
tion. Give iis, then, tlio good men of tho
.State. I would rather trust him who took
up arms and Went to the battle field, and
Iuh come homo with liis honourable sears,
behoving in tbo justice of his cause, tlmn
ho who skulked from duty, and now claims
to ho a Union man, (Cheers.J Such none
is unworthy the contempt of even n negro.
I would rather trust to General Hampton,
riding nt the head of IiIh column, nnd snout
ing to his men to follow, than any man who
lias stayed nt home, ami when his country
was in danger, limited for an irwi-chid or n
nir-hole. | Cheers, | And so would you.
■^TluuVrua?*) We don’t believe ill tfinsu
people who, since the wnr, have dodged
around corners, declaring they were “ Union
moil.” (“No, no.”) When I hear a South
ern man Ray he was a “Union limn,” 1
know he is a traitor. When I hear a North
ern man say he was a Southern limn during
the war, I know lie Is a traitor. Hut when
I hear a colored man say lie was a Union
man, I believe him from my heart. When
ever tho telegraph announced a Southern
victory, the black man trembled, but when
ever the tidings came of a Northern victo
ry wo rejoiced, beenuso wo jolt that we
were that liiueli nearer freedom. To-day,
tlmnk Und, we enjoy thu results of that,
freedom. We stand before the world in
vested with a political equality with the
white man. Wo ran vote.
It Is true the majority of colored nu n
may not be ahje to vote intelligently, but
you will be educated. In the four weeks
proceeding the first election in this district’,
you will be taught more about voting than
the people of Ireland or Kugiaml ever did
know. There never was a people who have
gained so mueli as we have done. Until
little while ago we were slaves. Now we
are freemen. It has been declared that we
shall have a voice in public affairs. In these
public affairs wo must, unite with our white
follow citizens. They tell us that they have
been disfranchised, yet we tell tho North
that wo will novi;r let the halls «d* Congress
bo silent until we remove that disability.
Can we afford to lose from the councils id’
the State our first men? Can we spare
judges from the beneliV Can we put tools
or strangers in their position V No, fellow-
eiti/.ens, no ! Gloomy would be that day,
indeed. Wo want in ehargo of our inter
cuts only Our best and ablest men. And
then, with a strong.pull, a long pull, and a
pull altogether, up goes South Carolina.
(Cheers.)
Population or Macon.—Harry Neville
nnd his assoeiates have recently been en.

Dear »Sir—In your paper of yesterday
you have expressed a desire to hour the views
of several gentlemen ttprfn the political con
dition of tho country. 1 find my name men*
tioned upon your list, and proceed, without
hesitation, to respond.
As I havo never applied myself to politics,
I cannot claim to speak to tlio. w'iho states
men of the country, who are devoting
their energies to the solution oftlio problem
which agitates the public mind. I can only
speak the plain, honest convictions of a
soldier. -
It can hardly be neressjiry at this Into day
to enter into a (lisemfttion of the matter that
is usually brought up in arguing upon the
proposed plan tbr reconstructing the Gov
ernment. Indeed, I think that many of
them are not pertinent to the question.
The striking feature, and the one that our
people should'keep in view is, that we are
a conquered people. I.erorffiiziitg this fact
lairlvalid squarely, there is but one course
left for wise men to pursue. Accept the
terms that are offered us by the conquerors!
There can he no discredit to a conquered
people for accepting the conditions offered
l>y the conquerors. Nor i i there any oc
casion for a feeling of humiliation. We
have made an honest, nnd ] hope that I may
say, a creditable fight, but we lmvo lost.
Let us coiiio forward then and accept the
ends involved in the struggle.
Our people earnestly desire that the con
stitutional government shall be re-estab
lished, and Vim only means to accomplish
this is to comply with tho requirements of
the recent Congressional legislation.
It, is said by some that .Congress will not
receive us even after we have complied with
their conditions. Ibit I can find no sufficient
reason tor entertaining this proposition for
u moment. I eatiuot admit that, the repre
sentative men ol a great nation’could make
such a pledge in bad faith Admitting,
however, that there is siteh a mental reser
vation, can that beany exeuso for us in fail
ing to discharge our duty V Let us accept
the terms as we are in dut y bound to do,and
if there is a lack ol’goml faith, let it he upon
others.
I am, very respect full v,
Your most obj’t servant,
James Lonoktukkt.
.Mississippi Movks roil an Injunction.
The Mississippiaii learns from undoubted
authority that Judge Sharkey telegraphed
to Gov. Humphreys for permission to file a
bill in the name of the Stale of Mississippi,
to enjoin nil proceedings to subject the peo
ple of this State to military rule, under tho
recent act of Congress, and that till' Gov
ernor immediately replied, giving the desir
ed authority. Since then the Governor has
has received a telegraph from Judge Shar
key upon the subject, stating that, the “pros
