COIUIIMIH nf your j aper for ihe following article V j Tho negro an<l hi* present oandition j-> ono of the most prominent subjects nf newspaperconsideration. In fact, (herc h.;^ been, and oven now so much being said about him, until there is a sentiment created against him, HO deeply saturated with a feeling of biasness on thc part of some of our white neighbors, as to make good and respectable colored people feel strange; even to feel that their lives aro en dangered. To this there is no need of special reference, as a proof, for already there linger in the minds of good white peo ple, as well as some not so good, the fact of things done to the negro to warrant thc assertion aa being perfect ly reasonable. With all theac threatening forebod ings, men and women of intelligent minds have been moved to think and carefully investigate to learn the real cause of thc moral sense and dignity nf thc State, and yea, even of thc <bounty, being put in a quiver. This commotion seems to be an outcome, io ]vart, of the condition of thc negro race as a mass, which condition is al most wholly unsatisfactory to superior races in refinement und civilization. This fact is too obvious for denial, and those of the negro race, who can t>ec and hiow this, out of a sense of justic to ali concerned, should admit it. However, in my doing this, it is not my purpose to plead guilty to all thc charges with which the negro is charged, nor to concede that all thc indignities heaped upon thc negro are j just, lt is, however, a matter cf deep | regret to every true man that there is any reason for complaint. For my part, I hope to see things as they are and deal with them accordingly. In doing this, my race proclivities, es pecially those growing out ol' my | prejudices, will nut bc consulted. For | it. is fully realized that thc only hope left for my nice is a linn stand for thc right and an invincible and irresisti ble war against everything that tends to keep us down or works injury lo thc common good ?>f thc country. Many places "nave bet n mentioned as thc place for the ti cst. hattie. But it is my (minion that thc first attack ?should be. made un mani' of thc negro homes. Many of them ure going wrong, and it is from this source that the greater proportion of moral taint conics, which encircles itself in the moral vein, and thereby tainting uver> tissue in thc mural structure of the negro race. Thc deathly contents from this direction arc so large in volume and so very broad in their circulation j .is iii vcr j seriously affect the home j and lives of those whose unitive and conduct are in high keeping with thc most lofty ideas of right. The ap pcaranec of such a menacing influence should stimulate the thinking men and women of the race to vigorous action. The literal meaning of thc word home makes it a central factor in all that materially concerns man in this world, and will have much to do with him in the world to conic. T.ie existence of home is an ordering of Providence, in ' which providential act is"Qcelared the \ recognition of man as an intelligent j being, and as such is ?superior to all "thor animals. Therefore, the prop .riv arranged home i< thc biggest in- J stitution in thc world. It is a monar chy in thc moral, social and religions world, holding tho reins vd' State, Church, society and legislative bodies in its bund1:. When occasions demand it orders Legislatures and Parliaments to convene to enact laws for its pro tection. It holds at its command thc servants of this land, from President down to the smallest district sheriff. And to resist a foe who would dare to invade this sacred castle to harm, all may bc summoned to enforce laws and uphold her sovereign right. There should be no surprise at the words of thc poet, "There is no place like home." Another great poet, as he sat in thc quiet solitude contemplating thc stormy trials of life, when upon his viow burstcd the glorious antici pation of a future resting place, and in all thc wide realm of words beforo his eyes none were so suitable to the ex pressing of his hope as these: "Jeru salem, my happy home: name ever dear to mc," ?fcc. Some may say that States, Churches and society generally make home, but not so. Society, thc State and thc Church arc all offsprings of the home, and tho character and general makeup of tho home will de termine thc character and complexion of all. Thc same is true of races. This being true, thc home should be tho pur est place on earth. Its k eeper should bo mothers and fathers, whoso general make should bc unqestiooably pure and high. Themoral atmosphere surround ing the home should bo free from any thing thai would have any injurious cf - feot upon th G child ron of thc home. For homo influences mould character an SELS IIIS R?CH. Vegro Homes one ol' SxLsting Troubles. I s li ?i po. habits and tone of lilV as noth I iug else will or can Arid as thc home, so will thc men mid ?om- fi be coming j out from these holm -. Our word? und actions are only sered towera in the lives of our hoy- arel , gills. As we -|e ;ik. so will our chil j dren speak. Sh aid we act dishonest* ly, our children will do so, too. Should We he uni ail hltil lo each oilier as men and wive-, nur sons and daughters will he unfaithful to their companions when i lo y go out in life. And let mc further remind you that the men and women who arc to make up the negro race for the future will he just what our homes arc now. For thero is ! nothing surer than whatsoever the I i ? home Howeth thatalsowill thcChurch, j the State, society and the future home of the negro race reap. I am a negro of the strictest sect, and I love that despised race, and for that reason I would say that there is a loose screw in too many of our homes. No one needs to visit them to know that. Hut judging from what may be flceu at many of our publie gatherings, it is safe to say that we have in our race some rough bunnies. Thero you can see young negro men staggering over women in their whis key. There you can see them stand ing over young women and mothers cursing. There you will see on thc outside of their clothes pistols, as though they were going to war. Do you not see some fellow a little dis tance away selling liquor? Can't you see them passing to a.id from like bees to a hive? Some one is about full now. Ho conics up and raises a row. The cowardly wretch draws a pistol, and then see women running, carrying i their children in their arms, scream ing as they go. All of thia tells me that some homes are going wrong. Well, some one may say that white people do that, too. It is true that there are some tough cases in that race. and. in fact, all races have sumo eh a fl'. Hut, brother, our number of ruffians is too large. And grant that some young white men cut up. They have the money to employ lawyers, and, if convicted, can pay out, while tho negro settles his in chains ou some road or on sonic farm. Tho good peo ple will join uni in denouncing any j such, and. my brethren, when thc home is made right, all is right, with a few exceptions, and except ons nev er establish a rule. Some will say that it i.; treason to the race for an alt nek of this kind to be nindi: on disorderly homes. If it is treason, brethren, make the bot of it. For my part. 1. have unsheathed my sword of truth to j defend all that is true and right, and to head to ilie .shoulders everything i that tends '.o darken thc moral horizon of my race, and as long as breath is in ? my body I will never put it up until these ends are met.

This inexcusable sacrifice bas been notable especially in thc caso of swamp lands that have often sold at less price per acre than tho value of one large cypres?? tree. liven at thc present time timber syn dicates are buying up all of our avait able timber lauds at a very low price, and that, loo, with an iron-clad ar rangement that puts tho owner of tho j laud entirely ut their mercy, the con tract being that the buyer has all the time ho wishes for thc removal of tho trees., virtually giving him absoluto i control of tho land fur as long II .peri od ! as ho chooses to bold it.

Thc kingdom ol'Saxony, with about one-third the area of South Carolina; easily supports a population of nearly 5,000,000 people, aud this, too, despite thc fact that two-fifths of thc whole land area is reserved for forests. Tho j forests, instead of being an expense, j aro a source of considerable revenue, j to say nothing of tho good they ac complish in improving tho climatic aud atmospheric conditions of the oountry. Thc same rule, with very little variation, prevails throughout thc whole of Germany. In Spain the timber has been de stroyed, with no attempt to replace it; the consequence being that it formerly supported a much larger population than it does at tho prosont day.

Joe Wheeler, who for si time j jumped about thu country tooting thc praise of McKinley's policy of imperial ism, has been snubbed in the Philip pines by lien. Otis anti, affording to cable advices from Hung Kong, be wishes to be ord? red back bonn:. It will be remembered that Gen. Wheeler was very anxious to take the tiold in the Philippines, and finally his impor tuning resulted in the President in structing him to proceed to Manila and report to Major Gen. Otis. The press had much to say about the good work Gen. Wheeler would do when he took the field against the Filipinos. It was generally understood from the Wash ington dispatches that Wheeler would be given the command of FuuHton's brigade and participate in tho active operations of Lawton and MacArthur ! as soon as the. dry season commenced, lt appears, however, that upon his ar rival at Manila he met with a chilling reception. There was no field band at the landing place to hail his coming with martial music, but, on the con trary, Gen. Otis exhibited the marble heart and extended the \cy hand; in other words, he was, to use language of diplomucy, persona non grata to the entire military outfit at Manila and was treated ns un interloper. Gen. Wheeler for weeks wanted to be assigned to a command, and at last, growing impatient, he called on Gen. Otis in order to ascertain "where he was at." Ile then learned that ho had been billed for the command of a little aud lonely island of the archipelago, situated "far from the madding crowd's ignoble strife." Wheeler protested against being snuffed out in such a manner, but the man who shaves his chin and allows his hair to grow on the rest ol' thelawnremaiued (inn. Wheeler then began to yearn for home and ( every tond spot that his infancy knew. He had been thrown down hard and j his dreams of leading u dashing charge i against the rilipinus were jolted out ol j him. Army officers predicted thal ; when Gen. Wheeler sailed for the Phil j ippines that he would not be given J ! show, for the reason that he would b? in the way of thc' gular army men i and they would resent his coming tc j Manila. I Gen. Wheeler was all right solon* as he traveled from one city to anothe; j making speeches in favor of McKinley' ' Phillippinc policy and imperialism, bu I the moment he sought a command ii the Philippine army he began to bott '< the President. The desire of Wheelo to distinguish himself made him per persistent, und finally thc Presiden sent him to tia- Philippines, kltowinj I full well that tii-n. (His would lind way to smother him.

Not much attention ?a often paid to the first Symptoms of Eczema, bnt it is not lons before the little redness begins to itch ana barn. Thia is but the beginning, and will lead to suffering and torture almost unen durable. It is ? common mistake to regard a roughness and redness of the akin aa merely a local irritation ; it ia bot an indica tion of a humor in the blood-of terrible Eczema*-which is more than skin-deep, and can not be reached by local appli cations of ointments, salves, etc., applied to the surface. The disease itself, the real cause of the trouble, is in the blood, although ell suffering fa produced through the skin ; the only way to reach the disease, therefore, is through the blood. Mr. Phil T. Jones, of Mixersville, Ind., writes: *'I had Eczema thirty years, and after a great deal, of treatment my leg was so raw and sore that it gave mc constant pain. It finally broke into a running sore, and began to spread and grow worse. For tho yaat five or six years I have suffered untold agony and had given np all hope of ever being free from the disease, as I have been treated by some of the best physicians and have taten many blood medicines, all in vain. With little faith left I began to take 8. 8. 8., and it apparently made the Eczema worse, but I knew that this waa the way the remedy got rid of the poison.
