From the columns of "The Christian Advocate," published at Dallas, J- Texas, we quote below what this V "Christian Advocate" . clipped from the columns of "Collier's Weekly," published in New*York city; and this "'Christian Advocate," in our estimation, but feebly condemned this diabolical fling at "Southern Womanhood;" the clipping follows: * "It is well known that many identifications are sheer hysteria, often for crimes that were never committed, and many other charges and identifications are founded on something worse than hysterical invention; they are the easiest escape from scandal. Now these are not the ; * things to say, no doubt. They altogether lack chivalry and the aristocratic virtues, but perhaps it is time to put justice and truth above 'honor,' whatever that may be."

Listen! "Collier's Weekly" c says: S "It is well known that many iden- a tification8 are sheer hysteria, often for crimes that were never committed, and many other charges and identifications are founded on some- r thing worse than hysterical invention, they are the easiest escape from v scandal." By this statement, does "Collier's S il Weekly" propose to brand Southern women as cohabiting with black 8 brutes, and for fear of being betray- h ed by the brute, will then raise the cry of "Rape?" You say, Mr. "Col- h lier's Weekly," that your malicious statements are "well known."?The a Rip Saw says, it's a lie as black as hell, and you can't prove your state- a ment to be true. e Mr. "Collier's Weekly," if you at no distant day, find your "A-dollar- ^ down-and-a-dollar-a-month" business g; petering out, in that section which you so maliciously brand with such a dastardly charge, you need not be surprised, unless we have judged s? wrongly the fathers, the husbands, f< and the brothers of the Southland. o Just such as you, Mr. "Collier's T Weekly," is what whets the appetite a of the brutish "coon" and makes him tl commit his fiendish crimes upon the C mothers, wives and daughters of the b South. ^ Listen how the above quotation e from "Collier's Weekly" sneeringly" d winds up: "Perhaps it is time to a put justice and truth above 'honor,' f< whatever that may be." No wonder S that a journal which inquires what P "honor" means, dared to publish K such a dastardly article; as from the c< query in regard to what "honor" e: means, which that sheet seems not to h know, perhaps it is, in a way, par- tl donable for publishing this dishonorable tirade against "Southern Wo- t< manhood." h We have known for many years A that the Roman Catholic church was reaching out for the negro, in order to make him a part of their asuperstitious institution, and there- ti - \ " - -- : l - v > a, IL \ l, Orangeburg, Colleton, Hai ronage of our large number ho buy from us have been th re them money every time. amber i buys without seeing us is tl it styles and makes that an; >ur large show rooms and yi To Dc it will not be the fault of on !W g oods, and if you want to [y made goods, but our guar inuance of your valued patrt :heap vehicle from a mail oi nable prices and terms, and 2 hand the year round, somet iNK D VEHICLES. iy control both his pocketbook and lis vote; but we did not, nor do not et know, just what machinery it is ising to bring this about But we re now constrained to ask if it is ossible that your "Uncle Peter Fenln Collier," whose name "Collier's Weekly" bears, and who sits away up mder the eaves of the Vatican, has een delegated to woo the "eoon" ato its fold by vilifying "Southern Vomanhood," in order to gain the onfidence of the blacks of the iouth??Will "Uncle Peter" please newer??National Rip-Saw. An Embarrassing Mistake. A short time ago, says The Couier-Journal, a young lady was roubled with a boil on her knee rhich grew so bad that she thought t necessary to call in a physician, he had formed a dislike for the famly physician, so her father suggested everal others, and finally said that e would call in the physician with tie homoepathic case, who passed the ouse every day. They kept a sharp Dokout for him and when he came long he was called in. The young idy modestly showed him the disbled member. The little man lookd at it and said: "Why, that's prety bad." "Well," she said, "what lust I do?" "If I were you," he nswered, "I would send for a phyIcian. I am a piano-tuner." Negro Hanged at Hampton. Hampton, April 23.?Dan RobertDn, colored, was hanged here to-day 3r the murder of Eliza Hunter, colred, at the depot here last February, he rope was cut by Sheriff Lightsey t exactly 12:54 and in 23 minutes tie man was pronounced dead by Dr. !. A. Rush, county physician, the fall reaking his neck. While the negro ras being led to the scaffold he seemd to be perfectly willing to die and id not show any fear or excitement t all. Grant, a colored preacher, ofsred a prayer in behalf of the ne ro's soul and Robertson seemed imressed with it. Two brothers of Robertson came up from Beaufort ounty this morning and were presnt at the jail at the time of the anging and will take his body to leir home in Beaufort county. This is the first hanging in Hamp>n county since three negroes were anged for the murder of Raymond [ears, about 15 years ago.
