He will do more <. real kindness for hi* brother in black s than the Northern man, and when the negro is left to himself wo believe that t he himself fee's and knows that the T Southern while man is a much better t friend than the Northern man. Tbe ? people of the South know ti e negro, t They know his weakness; they know c h;s good qualities, and they know 1 exactly what is a real kindness to the t n&gro. i The Charlotte Observer gives us an 1 illustration of the differenct between t the treatment of the negro by Northerners and Southerners. Southern i Pines in North Carolina, it says, "is a i typical Northern community." The < p'aoe was settled, developed and is 1 controllad exclusively by Northerners, I and that too by Northerners from c New England, the cradle of the abo- I litionists. Dr. Edwin Gladman, a i rwVi? Wftthinorfnn ritv. has a t sanitarium at Southern Pines, and be ' told a reporter for the Washington I Post the following: "I aoi in a North ] Carolina town which is altogether t outside the zone of race disturbances. ? It is equal to Washington Irving's 1 Sleep? Hollow, for freedom from bloodshed and disturbance, and also 1 ofTmHle vopi? illnsfrfttion of' hew t circumstances alter cases. Southern t Fines was founded by Eastern capital- < ist* as a resort for invalids, and c hundreds go there every winter seek- f ing restoration to health. Itsionnders, i notwithstanding their birlh-place and c traditions, did not allow any senti- i mental notions about the negro to < enter in their plans. No negro is allowed to live or do business in Sc-utbern Pines. They are all congregated iu a place called "Jinltown," and when they visit the town proper, are models of quiet and orderly behavior." The Observer adds: "Southern Pines is the only town in North Carolina in which negroes are not allowed to live," and we have no doubt that it is- he only t-jwn in the Sooth settled exclusively by Northerners, and we ( lurtder Have not tne sngniesi aoaot ( that it is the only community in tbe Sonth iu which "no negro is allowed j to live or do business". New Eng< laiid, let it iiot be forgotten, has . abused and maligned the white , people of the South because the negro was not accepted as the ( social equal of the white man. Il wa? New England which tried to ' put former slaves over their masters; it was New England that tried to fasten negro government upon the South ] by the bayonet; it was New England i that produced "Uncle Tom's Cabin," and yet the only community in the . . South, settled, owned, and governed by New Eoglanders, not only does not permit the negro to move in society as the social equal of the whites, but "no ( negro is allowed'J even "to live or do business in Southern Pines." In truth, j T>:o Tranrr rt>AA/^ I , CUUiUClU J. 1UC3 auuiu? a iw; gwvu illustration of how circumstances alter , case3," and we quite agree with Dr. Gladman on this point. The Peace Commissioners will rival th? United States Senate in talking ! and doing nothing. The Uaited States j havp saifl that Snain mnst release her sovereignty over Cnba, and tbey have al?o made it "clear that Spain mast give up the Philippines. While all this is so, the Commission adjourns from day to day without coming to any settlement. The Spanish comrais. sioners are playing the old Spanish af?KCr?/v -Pam ? a??a Tt UVU^C VI QOAIUg xvi iuvi& uuivi JLv wa3 thought that it was settled that Cuba was to be lost to Spain, bat now tbe news comes that the Spanish com- ^ missioners consider the question still open. It is time to say to the Span- { iards that oar terms are so and so, and 7 ( we advise you to accept, and if you do not ac?ept them, [we sba'l force them on you. This will bring the whole business to a settlement. Spain can ? then say to her creditors: "We had to release your security by force." It ^ is be:ter for Spain and for this country ^ to end the business, and be done with The Charlotte Observer is giving the * white people rome good advice. It < says: "This day, a week after the 1 election, there should not be a single r suggestion of race or other trouble t gro v:ng out of the reeent exciting * campaign.

Tha solid men of North 3 Car >iina have reclaimed tbe State and c they are going to govern it wisely and ^ we'!. liiey will not now or hereafter 1 toie-ite any injustice to the negro, but, on the contrary, the black man will be ^ better protected than ever before in * life, liberty and pursuis of happiness. * In ( fiarlotte, Wilmington and every- ? wht e cl8? let us all be quiet and await 1 4*- - ~ .x?: T A/W^AlA^nMA * lilt; -a?*atiw:i >v uiv,~ mc u;g;5iamit v< 18P9 has in store for the State." 5 Ic the Democrats shall pursue this I wi?o policy, t^e trouble in North Caro- r lina wili ead, an l the prosperity of the State will m-ve onward.

AH of the colored egiments are encamped at San Luis, .bent twenty-five miles from Santiago, tod the despatch states that tbe?e colored troops were, sent there "to get hem out of the way becanse of the lilEculty in managing' them," ana it is inrtber added lhat "the colored ofSer* seem to have little or no control >ver their men," that "officers and >rivates are often seen drinking together." It feenas that an outbreak >ccorred in "an attempt to arre?t two >f the soldiers fvr abusing a Cuban tnd stealing bis hog." Lieut. Ferrer!", :bief of Gen. Wood's police, was the >fficer who attempted to make the irrest. The two soldiers escaped, but hirtv soldiers attacked th? hou*e of jient. Ferrera, and "kept up a regular nsilade until they killed him and two >tber men ar.d a baby aud wounded everal other people." Geu. Wood started out on an mvesigation, but the colored officers, who ?ere in the habit of drinking with heir Luen, denied that their men hsd mything' to do with the disturbance, >ut Gen. Wood went to the scene of listurbance and made investigation for limself. He must have found out hat the officers bad deceived him, or n plain words had lied, becaase before * s ? ? ,3O rrnrrr couPTP eaYlL'g UC uc?nucu a fw*7 are to them. One of the obvious conclusions that vill be drawn from the disturbancs s that the negro is incompetent ;o control. The men have no respect "or their colored officers and tbe officers lave no control over the men. The ;olored soldiers, it is true, have not jebaved any worse than some of tbe ivhite troops, but thi3 fact doe* not liter tbe significance of the incident, rhe negro may make a good soldier, >ut he mu?t always be a subordinate. tie may mase a iairjy ^wuvjumju, >at he must ever feel the band of sapeiior aathority and control over lim. Often we bave fhonghe that if the Jnilsd States mast enliot colored roops, it was only fair and just that he colored troops should bave officers >f their own race, bat we bare officers )f their own race, bat we have always 'eared that it would not work. The ncident related seems to show that jolored officers with colored troops won't do. The negro mast be a sub>rdinate, for the present at least. "Moee than 10,COO deer, it is staled, ?rere killed in Maine last year besides nouse, 500 caribou and 600 bears, fn V0137 Ynrt. it is fnrther renorted, leer have increased so rapidly under :he five years' absolute protection jiven to tbera that they are fairly swarming in the woods. It payp, jvidently to pass wise game laws? md enforce them."?The News and Joarier. South (Jaroiina das some wise. game laws, but the trouble is ^hat the? are not enforced. Land :>-wners, as will appear by the frequent notices givan to trespassers, are taking ;he right 5-teps to preserve the game >f tbe country, though this may not be primarily their object in forbidding hunting on their lands. If all land owners would absolutely prohibit trespassing and enforce the Jaw, in a fewjyears quail and other game would be abundant in Fairfield County. North Carolina and South Carolina have their race trophies now and then, but they are soon over and peace and order restored. In Illinois, it is qnite different. There the riot is prolonged indefinitely, and citizens cannot feel secure in the enjoyment of their peace and property. A reason mast exist for this, and the* explanation of the difference between the condition in Illinois, on the one hand, and North Carolina and South Carolina, on the other, mnst be found in the difference between the white people of tbe two sections of tbe country. The whole State will sii>< ? y n.jret that tt e success of tho fair \va? so much hindered by the very bad weather. Thousands ot visitors remained at home on account of the ireather. Il so often rains during fair week that we think the eociety might try tbe suggestion of one of its members that the date be changed.

The following is the fall text of the r touching, appropriate and fervent trib- c ut<* to the memory of Johnson Hagood 1 and John Brattoa, < elivered by Col. ^ John P.
