Bi&op Newman and the South.
r~.*" *
Bishop Newman's eyes were evidently
opened by his recent trip to
the South. In a recent address to
the Virginia Conference of the Northem
Methodist Chnrcb, he said:
"The purest American blood was
to be found in the South, and he did
not know bat the people of the South
ought to thank God they had been
born South of the Potomac. The
North would ba~ve to engage in. a
death grapple with the foreign element,
which was fast dominating
Legislatures and municipalities, and
it might be that the Sooth would have
. to march forth in defence of our dearnational
institutions from foreign
toe
KTlh this section. J
^^^^^\Tn^?oatner^pSfflj^r believe in the J
Constitution and^felaws. It is grati-1
lying that at last the light is break-}
ing upon the darkened understand-1
ing of Bishop Newman. There is no
better way in which he can do penance
for the political mischief be has
wrought in the past than by preaching,
In season and out of season, upon
the love of fne South for the Union.
?News and Courier.
The STegro Problem.
???
William P. Calhoun, Esq., recently
wrote an article for the Augusta
Chronicle on the " Negro Problem " ;
which has attracted attention iu many
quarters. He advocated the propriety
and practicability of the government
colonizing the race. Some of ur contemporaries
agree with his views but
xhany dissent
We do not propose to enter into
the discussion of the question in any
broad sense. The negroes have peculiaries,
bnt they are baody about ,
doing heavy work. It would require j
years for our people to learn bow to
manage profitably any other kind of
labor. The negroes make a lot of
corn and eotton every year, unsatisfactory
as their work is said to be. It
comes natural to them, and they are
the moBt contented laborers in the
world. They live on less than any
other people, and take no thought of
the future.
We have heard a great deal of talk
about getting rid of the negro, but let
?n agent come around to take them
to other sections and the tune changes.
Violence is freely threatened to
the man who proposes to take them
to toe ieriue ianas 01 tne west, Some- i
times the agents are handled roughly i
without any process of law. From i
many incidents of this kind, we con- 1
elude that the majority of our people 1
are not so anxioos to get rid of the <
negroes as one might sappose. I
^ Old clothes look better on a negro I
than on a white man. He seems to l
EM be peculiarly cut out for such style of f
dressing. What would look seedy on t
the one_?aul4-do for a Sunday suit
oirthe other. c
You cannot persuade a negro to t
burn sassafras wood. He thinks to f
do so will give him the toothache or c
bring some other bad luck. t
The negro believes in ghosts. In ; a
it j..j 1 c _:.li it ?:n !
tut; ueau uuurs ui uiguu vuey win y
jamp on bis shoalders, and the only c
way to get rid of the evil spirits is to
* curse tbem. If yoa hide a bottle of i fi
V whiskey oat in the woods and cover s
\ it op, ghosts will fiod it and dance b
around it all night, and they will be t
visible to the eye. ' p
The colored domestic servant is !
constantly finding something about
the house that has not been lost. You h
also have to call three or foar times j it
before yon can get an answer. This
class is also handy at taking your
good clothes and wearing them to
their frolics. Most of them have
extra pockets, which are convenient
for concealing a biscuit or so, a piece
of sausage, or some other iatioD.
The colored washerwoman will slip
io enough sal soda before your eyes
to rot your clothing. If she can't
"getaway" with your clothing that
way, she will soon wear it out on the
washboard, or beat it to shreds with
a bat. She either puts too much or
too little starch on the neckband of
your shirt, and scorches the bosom
with a hot iron in the very spot where
vnn tcinh if tr? Innt hest. Then SOmfi
J -??
article, which yoa know yoa gave oat,
comes ap missing. If you persevere
ia yoar search, yoa will had it in a
week or two in another washing, after
she has worn it to a frolic or two.
The negro believes jay birds go to
hell every Friday. If he starts on a
trip and has to tarn back, he makes a
cross mark on the ground, spits in
the cross before he tarns. Ge wears
something made of silver in his shoe
to keep his enemies from " tricking "
him. He believes that some great
calamity will fall apon any one who
sticks a three-pronged fork in a grave,
if it is done at night. He will not
carry an axe or a hoe into a honse on
his shoulder. He thinks he will stop
growing it you step over mm ween ne
is lying down. He sticks a poker in
the fire to stop the noise of a screech
owl. He won't pat his shoes on a
shelf higher than his head when he
takes them off to go to bed. Sometimes
he takes a chicken off the roost
or a pig from a pen, bat he never
steals a sheep.
It is not probable that the government
will colonize the negroes in this
generation. While they are with ns
much can be done towards correcting
the idiosyncrasies we have numerated
above.?Abbeville Medium.
A Whopper.
Ia the year 1864, says a Southern
paper, a Confederate soldier from one
t>f the Louisiana regiments came home
Ry men and spent
>land. The solmake
about two
arried in an inrt.
The soldier
snake "Dixie,"
and other pepualways
had a nolittle
snake. He

Ie made on the
h the root the

Kwrn fW a*
run ning tee root
around thfrim of tbe hat, so that the
r^nakecQtdd not crawl oat ; bat there
came a puff of wind and blew the bat
' off the fenoe, and the influence5 of
the charm being removed, the snake
crawled off into the swamp near at
hand. The prettiest thing about the
snake was that it was beautifully
tattooed with different colored inks.
T^e name of the snake?" Dick "?
the initials of the soldier and his
\
regimt^and company and C. S. A.
were beantifnlly and legibly tattooed
on the back of the snake.
As/time passed -on and lifted the
war clonds and let in tbe snoshine of
^peace and prosperity,'no mora was
thought of the soldier and his little
rattlesnake. Iq 1886, twenty years
after the war, a negro woman, in
passing the swamp, discovered a very
large rattlesnake, which, after being
killed, was fonnd to have twenty-sis
rattles and two buttons, and bis bide
when staffed held three pecks of bran,
bat all the tattooing had gone ont.
Then how are we going to know that
it was 44 Dick ?" Why, when the
woman assumed a warlike attitude,
" Dick " sprang his rattles and rattled
off " Dixie" io each tones as would
pat to blush. a regular brass band,
and to the tone of whioh np marched
aboat 100 well-armed young rattlesnakes
about six feet in length, all
rattling off the " Bonnie Blue Flag."
How He Lost His Situation.
The editor of the Waynsbnrg (Pa.)
Republican asked his nephew, "How
came you, James, to lose your place?"
"Well, HI tell you," was the reply.
"X had an easy berth; got my
seventy-five dollars a month; had an
assistant; didn't have to get down
till eight in the morning; left, at
live; had a chance to take life easy,
but gradually began to take it too
sasy?didn't get down until nine in
;he morning instead of eight; waited
;o smoke two cigars instead of one;
jrew careless of my money, used
bur dollars where I had been using
;wo.
"First, I knew my salary was cat
lown a little, and then a little more;
>ut I couldn't take tbe bint, but
retted about my poor situation, and
me morning I walked up after a
light's spree, and lo! I didn't have
,oy situation at alL But I'll tel
ou what I did have, uncle, I had
Qy experience."
That youth is working at fortyive
dollars a month now, instead of
eventy-five, but be already has six
uadred dollars in the bank. Would
bat more of onr youths might be
irofited by bis experience.
No young-man ever climbed the
idder of success with a wbisky flask
a bis pocket.
To Mothers.
If you say "No" mean "No." UnlesB
yon have a good reasoD for changing
a given command, hold to it.
Take an interest io your children's
amusements; mother's share in what
pleases them is a great delight. Remember
that trifles to you are mountains
to them; respect their feelings.
Keep up a standard of principles;
jour children are jadgei.
Be honest with them i:i small things
as well as in great. If you cannot
tell them what they wish to know say
so, rather than deceive them.
If you have lost a child, remember
that for the one that is gone there is
, no more to do, but for those left,
everything.
Make your girls and boys study
philosophy; when they are ill try and
make them comprehend why and how
their complaint arose, and the remedy,
so far as you know it.
Impress upon them, from early infancy,
that their actions have results,
and that they cannot escape consequences
even by being sorry when
they have done wrong.
Eespect their little secrets; if they
have concealments, fretting them will
never make them tell, and time and
patienoe will.
Allow them as theygrow older to
have opinions of their own ; make
them individuals and not mere echoes.
Find oat all their special tastes and
develop them instead of spending
time, money and patience in forcing
them into studies that are entirely repugnant
to them.
The Kicking Cows.
"I learned a lesson when I was a
little girl," says a lady. "One morn
T 1_ ?_ 4 fit. _
log i was loosing out oi toe wioaow
into my father's barnyard, where
stood many cows, oxen and horses
waiting to drink. It was a very
cold morning. The cattle were all
very still and meek till one of the
cows attempted to torn round. In
making the attempt she happened to
hit her next neighbor, whereapon,
the neighbor kicked and hurt another.
In five minntes the whole herd was
kicking each other with fary. My
mother said: 'See what comes oi
kicking when you are hit.' Afterward,
if my brother or myself were
a little irritable Bhe would say:
'Take care, children; remember how
the fight in the barnyard began.
N^ver give back a kick for a hit,
and you will save yourself and others
a great deal of trouble.' "

Fretting About Trifles.
Women often find a sea of troubh
in thei^ honsekeeping. Some on<
says they often pat as much worrj
and anxiety into a loaf of bread, ?
pie, a cake, into the weekly washing
and ironing as should suffice foi
much weightier matters. Suppose
these-thlDgs go-wrong co-day, the
to-morrows are coming in which to
try again, and the thing is not worth
clouding your own spirit and those
around you, injuring yourself and
them physically?for<the mind effects
the body?and for such a trifle.
When a thing is beyond repair,
waste no useless regrets over it aod
do no idle frettiDg. Strive for that
serenity of spirit that will enable yon
to make the best of all things. That

SIGHT IS PRICELESS.
But how often it is ruined by poor glasses, and also by good glasses poorly fitted. If
,11 eyes were normal, that is perfectly shaped, then it would be an easy matter to get -/
;lasaes, a person by stating his or her age would receive the number ofglass correspond* |
ng to that age and be suited exactly. But unfortunately there are few eyes perfectly
lormal, and sometimes we find a person ot fifty and a child of twelve years of age wear* ' .'M
ng the same number of glasses, the reason.being that the childs eyes were very poor
rhile the older person's were very good. Again we often find a different strength in the ' ' m
ight and left eye of some person. Again we find persons who complain of never being
ible to get a glass to suit them perfectly. This is owing to a peculiar malformation of
heir eyes which ordinary glasses will not remedy. When fitting cases of this kind?by '-\y
, new process?we make a careful measure of the eye and grind a glass specially to suit,
By this system we have made persons see well, who thought that nothing could be done '
or their sight. If your eyes give trouble, call on us and be fitted properly.
The Brazillian Axis Cut Pebble Speotacles and Eye Glasses are the FINEST and _
BEST on the market They are made from natural stone, so hard that they do not be- *
some scratched. They keep out heated rajs of light, and are soft, cool, and pleasant to
he eye. We sell them. Send for Circular, or call when in the city.
