The late census showed that Vienna

The lowa Democrats don’t want
specie payments until the business
interests of the country will permit,
and they don’t like tho National

just as obstinate in their determina

contraction.
The Democratic Central Committee
of Missouri have a resolution invit

Missouri, the National Democratic
Convention of 1870 to assemble in St.

make ample pnoparatlous for the re

who come to it.
It hits now been ascertained that
the public tjuildings erected, under
the management of the Treasury
Department, were huge swindles and
nests of jobbery. Mullet, the super

too soon. Everything pertaining to
Clrantism* seems tainted with theft
and bribery.
The Cincinnati Enquirer expresses
it thus: “The charge of Judge Neil
sou was beautifully brief, filling less
than a day, hardly more than an or
dinary session of tho Court.’* The
same paper styles tho New York Ihe
ald, New York Tribune, and the New
York World, and the Chicago Tribune,
and their affiliated echoes in differ
ent parts of the country, “the Bank
Monopoly iTeas.”
We call the attention of our rentiers
to a “circular” from tho great tflaek
berry merchants of Chicago, which
wo publish elsewhere. The plan of
“bearing” tho blackberry market has
begun quite early in the trade, and
is significant of tho huge proportions
to which tills industry may be car
ried. Seriously, tho future of this
I business is an immense one if prop
erly handled in the beginning. Many
of our subscribers can well remem

to be valuable for food. Now it i
probably the most popular vegetable
that wo have.

the place of tho true-worker, and
‘knocks down’ for a liicro pittance
tho factory, now silent, that lately
gave employment to thousands; the
merchant, failing to collect his dobts,
goes into bankruptcy; tho laborer
is thrown out of employment, and his
family subsists on charity; and tho
bnnker, distrusting all securities,
holds his money in Ids vaults. Thus
there is universal stagnation, with its
complement, universal distress.
Tun Legislative Committee of Lou

TIIK roi.ORKII PEVFI.K.
Wo take issue with our correspond
ent In tho expressed opinion that tho
higher education of the negro will
militate against tho welfare of tho
country. Wo think popular educa
tion tends to lossen crime, and that
in proportion ns tho negro becomes
educated will his value as a citizen
and voter increase. In tho main wo
agree with his conclusions, but do
not four any amalgamation or Inter
mingling of tho races. There will
ultimately bo colored lawyers and
physicians, and there Is m> sound
reason why there should not bo. The
negro was bereft of his protector by
emancipation but thus far, and for
a generation to come, perhaps, his
only hope for protection before tho
law, ns well as In sickness or distress,
is reliance upon tho ’superior white
race. The colored people, according
to the census reports, are gradually
diminishing in numbers relatively.
This fact, added to the constant im
migration of whites from Europe,
will place tho negro race, in a few
years, in a hopeless minority. Their |
conduct in tho immediate future will j
determine their fate then. If they
identify themselves with the white
people by so voting as to insure the
mutual prosperity of both races, they
can rise faster in property and the
comforts of life here than anywhere
else. But if tho whites uro so robbed
by corrupt government, through the
blind devotion of the negroes to Rad
ical leaders who live a thousand miles
off, that industry is paralyzed and
property depreciates in value, tho
dependent negro race is bound to be
the greatest sufferer. Emancipation
was only a war measure, determined
on when all other means of conquer
ing tlie Soutli had failed. Even then
we would have been admitted into
tho Union without consenting to the
abolition of slavery, if we had con
sented to abandon our ideas of State
Bights. Tho abolition of slavery
would havo ensued in a short time,
any way for it was an unprofitable
system for the country at large.

Honesty Is thr He*! I'oliey.
The adulterous death-bed connec
tion proposed by tho Selma Republi
can between what that Radical organ
calls Independent Democrats and the
rotten carcass of the beaten Radical
party, for tho purpose of attempting
to defeat the Constitutional Conven
tion, is, we are glad to see, being re
ceived by the people every where with
the contomptand scorn which such a
suggestion justly deserves. In Wil
cox county alone a corporal’s guard
of so-called Democrats, who, for the
sake of tho public sop flowing from a
few little county offices, have long
tigo formed a close corporation with
tho Radical party in that county, led
on by tho I‘aeifwalur and News , are
attempting to carry out the above
programme in order that they may
full heir to tho old clothes of dying
Radicalism. Tho cities of Sodom and
Gomorrah were righteous when com
pared to the disgusting wickedness of
the course being pursued by these
men. All the waters of the Alabama
river could not wash out the disgrace
of sueh conduct. These men may as
well know now, as hereafter, tiiat
their offorts will lie as vain in the one
matter for which they are laboring,
as in tiie other. If they have any
doubt about it the result will show
them that the people of Alabama can
safely give them the votes of all their
Radical allies in four sueh counties
us Wilcox added to what the entire
vote against the Convention will be,
and then carry the Convention by a
decided majority. And when they
come to administer upon the estate
of dead Radicalism existing in the
shape of tho public offices of Wilcox
county they will also find that they
have reckoned without their host.
The Shameful end of their little game,
not more disgraceful than its prog
ress, will lie hut another demonstra
tion of the old truth, that “honesty
is tiie best policy.”- Montgomery Ad
vertiser.

Anew motor, sustained by such
! eminent men as Prof. Morse ami Mr.
Peter Cooper, has been inviided by
Professor Webster, of New York.
Prof. Webster, when a boy, aided
Prof. Morse in his earliest efforts to
persuade the public of the success of
telegraphy. Ho lias given the subject
liis special attention for thirty years,
and now brings forward an engine
which he claims he can run for any
length of time without a pound of
coal, a stick of wood or u drop of
water.
Senatcb Goudov's plan for settling
the vexed question of finance, which
threatens to break the harmony in
■ the Democratic party, is as follows:
Ho proposed that tho Democratic
party should relegate the whole finan
cial question to Congress; thar the
National Convention should pledge
its nominee to endorse the action of
tiie majority of the representatives
of tho people in the National Con
gress. In this way, the tariff ques
tion was disposed of in the Cincin
nati and Baltimore platforms of 1572;
and thus that canvass, so disastrous
to the Democrats, was relieved of
one perplexing and angular problem.
Tho financial question should be so
disposed of at tho National Conven
tion next year.
Gen. Gordon is a strong inflation
ist, We believe, however, the mass
of tho Democracy, North and South,
tiro committed to those cardinal
principles of Democratic faith.
“Hard money. Pice trade, and Home
rule.” It is proper and best that
these issues should bo made now,
that they all may bo reconciled be
fore the National Convention is
held.
Whitei.av Weed says, with far
more of energy than might be ex
pected of so old a man, “Whoever
identities me with Thurlow Reid is a

existence I never called upon Yieto

Hom s. Editors: I ttslc pardon for
agaip trespassing upon your goodly
timo and space, and promise—as
“Thinker” promises—to rest the mat
ter with this.
My previous communication had
all the desired effect, in that it
brought “Thinker” back to his origi
nal position, assumed in the Times
of the loth inst., in which you sub
joined a comment, to which I would
refer your readers: and could rest
assured thut the fallacy of his theori
zing would appear in all its glaring
inconsistency.
"True Christianity depends on fact!
Religion is not thiory, but act!”
If wo should apply the principles
of our Government to the above
"couplet,” it will appear, and cor
rectly, too, that there is no theory
about it, and especially such as
“Thinker” upplies; but that it is
made up of one long, continual suc
cession of act3—the acts of Con
gressional bodies down to the be
ginning of tho war, and extending
back to tlie very Declaration of Inde
pendence. It was declared in tho first
“old compact,” and incorporated in
the present Constitution. All (he
acts and writings of our public men,
and the many decisions of tho Su
preme Court, declare in unmistaka
ble terms this to boa Federal Gov
ernment, made by States, and for
States. But I have held, and still
hold, this to bo no time to debate
these questions. “Thinker”--if no
older than tho writer—if the provi
dence of God should extend his life
to old ago, will yet livo to see these
questions discussed and decided to
his full satisfaction or rather to his
dissatisfaction. If hoary age presses
him upon the brink of eternity, we
have but to state that a long life has
been spent without arriving at a true
understanding of this Government.
And we must tell him--his slur to the
contrary notwithstanding—that Alex.
H. Stephens, in his “War Between
the States,” will livo in the hearts of
this people, and in the mind of tho
world, as long as Cervantes shall sur
vive the decay of time in his “Don
Quixotte do la Mancha,” (the Knight
to whom lie compares Mr. Stephens.)
However much Mr. Stephens has
fallen short of the expectations of his
people, in Congress, he lias built a
monument in the work above men
tioned, which will never die, so long
as a spark of constitutional freedom
shall exist.
But “Thinker” dares to charge tho
Southern Democracy with disunion
sentiments! Well, we accept tho re
proach rather than endorso his prin
ciples. The Southern Democracy ac
knowledge the failure to sustain the
principles of our government, by the
sword. Wo accept the abolition of
slavery, and promise support to the
Union (the Union under tho Consti
tution in its purity J All this we ac
knowledge and swear in our “Regis
tration oaths”; and we think wo are
honest, and believe the Northern De
mocracy can and will unite witb us
upon this basis.
Messrs. Editors, accept my humble
congratulations for the almost un
precedented success of tho Times. It
has sprung, magic like, into mature
existence, nurtured by the longing
sentiments of a people, for an advo
cate, fearless in (he right, congenial
in spirit, and a representative “to the

The conference betcen Gen. Shor
i man and Gen. Johnston, by which
I tlie Coufedrate army was surrendered
arc recounted in Shermans book as
follows:
The circumstances ,>f the memora
ble conference ale those: After the
surrenderor General Lee, the only
rebel army in tho field was hemmed
in North Carolina, under the com
mand of General Johnston. Jeff.
Davis and his cabinet had take refuge
with this remnant of their forces,
and were somewhat anxious to ar
range terms of peace. Johnston pro
poses a enfereuee. Sherman accept
ed, and attended alone. The first
day’s consultation was devoted to
general talk. No plans were pro
posed nor even outlined. The second
day Johnston came to the scene ao
oompaned by John C. Breckinridge.
What, impression was produced upon
| the gallant soldier’s nature by the
| spectacle of this once brilliant figure
, bowed in great, can only be surmised;
j hut the day they spent together more
ithen neutralized the best year’s
work of his life. He wrote out, and
with Johnston signed terms of peace,
1 which were forwaded to their respec
tive Govenments. subject of course to
their approval. These terms, what
ever may have been tlie design of
the negotiators, were belli to reestab
lish slavery, and guarantee its per
petuity under State laws; to recog
nize tlie rebel State Government as
tlie Government Of the States after
their restoration to tho Union and to
representation in the Federal Con
gress ; to pay tlie way for the assump
tion of the rebel debt, reimburse
ment for all damages sustained bv
rebels, and payment for all escaped
slaves.

Among the leading industries are
the following: A woolen mill (build

foundries, three flouring mills, three

three breweries, two fruit drying
establishments, one fruit cannery,
two candy factories, one glove factory,
one broom factory, one tannery, one
coffee and spice mill, one starch
factory, and a furniture factory of
some pretensions. Fine quarries of
freestone are adjacent to the cite,
and timber is in abundance. Seven
miles distant is Peniteneia Canon,
where 400 acres romantic lands,
abounding with mineral springs,
have been reserved for public uses,

EDUCATION OV THU XIiOHO.
Editors Z>a'Uy Times:— ln the last
issue of your paper was a short edi
torial on tiio education of the negro.
Tho recent exhibition of scholarship
in tho Atlanta University (colored)
likewise suggests reflections upon
this subject. We agree with you in
tho opinion that there are entirely
too many books studied by tho pupils
of this country, both whitoand black.
Tlie system, In some respects resem
bles tho grinding of a machine. At
stated periods the scholars aro ground
out, and up into another class, and
here again a fresh supply of books
are piled into tho “hopper.” Wo be
lieve that higher education is a luxu
ry forwhich there must be a large ex
penditure of time and money. Our
schools for the' public should not at
tempt to give this higher education.
Their whole effort should be directed
towards a practical English educa
tion. Especially is thlstrue with col
ored public schools. Therefore, the
timo devoted to tho acquirement of a
smattering of Greek and Latin, and
a superficial knowledge of Belles Let
tres, is just so much thrown away.
The negro wants knowledge fthich
he can utilize on the farm and in the
workshop. His mind, perhaps, can
bear the burden of this spoeios of
knowledge, but we doubt whether he
can ever become proficient as a dia
lectician. But if his mind is capable
of receiving a thorough training in
tho classics and the sciences, we
think his education in this direction
would seriously militate against the !
future welfare of this country.
One of Georgia’s leading statesmen
in talking of the Civil Rights bill in
our hearing said: “We need appre
hend no danger from the effects of
tlie Civil Rights bill. The negro will
never give any trouble on this sub
ject because he will never merit
equality; but it he merits equality he
most certainly deserves it.” If these
words be true we have much to ap
prehend in the future. As for social
equality, that will never take place
in the higher circles, but os the mind
of tlie colored man becomes more
and more cultivated we will see him
taking his place in the counting room,
on the forum, at the hustings and in
all the stations of tlie body politic.
Train any mind to the appreciation
of ancient and modern literature;
sharpen the intellect by contact with
the problems of science, and store
the memory with facts of history,
and such a mind will lead.* The
equality will be merited and if this
political sage is correct tlie day is
not far distant when negro leaders
will arise iu our midst. We are not
opposed to the education of the black
man. Far from that. S. A. E.

The San Francisco Call lias tlie fol
lowing concerning tho income from
inter-ocean canals:
Tlie receipts of the Suez Canal for
1873 readied nearly $5,000,000, while
its running expenses were less than
one-fourth of that sum, and its stock
was then placed upon the books of
the London Stock Exchange. The
dividend declared and paid during
that year was three and three-quar
ters per cent. The receipts the past
year were more than $6,000,000; but
enlargements and improvements are
to be made in the canal, which will
absorb this amount this year, which
are, of course, extraordinary expens
es. The construction of this canal
cost $95,000,000; and if such a water
path has proved a financial success
as to captivate tiio British mind,
there can be no feir of success not
attending the much shorter canal
proposed on the Panama Isthmus
that divides North and South Ameri
ca ; and it is quite probable proposals
for constructing it will come from
London before long.
Fitzhugh Lee thus speaks of the
reception accorded the Southerners
at Boston and Bunker Hill:
Do you know what all that means?
It means at that end of the line pre
cisely what the outpouring of your
people at this end of the line to meet
us on our return means, viz.: Thut
the people of this country have taken
this matter of recon,-: ruction out of
the hands of the politicians; that tlie
