Julius Poppe, Anderson C. fT. ?3. P. Kimmi, Newberry C. H. Wlinf :t Missionary Says. Tho Rochester Union has had a call om a gentleman who 1ms recently iturneel from a tour thrungli thc outh, where ho lins been preaching Mo preaching tuc uospel to all colors, visiting schools, seminarios and col? leges, and conversing with the loading minds of tho South in favor of uni-, versal amnesty and universal suit rage. Tho railroads have passed mo ; freely; the hotels have entertained mo without charge. Governor Yanco wrote mc a letter :o a railroad agent; Gen. Beauregard passed me over his line: Mayor Mon? roe extended mc the hospitalities of Iiis homo and supplie.] me with ? money for my necessities. Mr. Monroe expends more than I his salary in benevolence, and about four thousand souls aro dependent i? n his employment for daily broad. 1 was permitted to make a speech i in tho North Carolina Legislature immediately after adjournment, and reproved them for rejecting the con? stitutional amendment. L hoard but :wo men express a desire for more righting. They have sworn to sup? port the Constitution, but not to amend it. They will endure what is put upon them, and prefer anything to the present state of uncertainty. Their condition is dreadful-heaps . i ruins in their cities, railroads out af repair, fare five to ten cents a mile, famine prices, poverty, penury, sheer starvation, and a lack of confidence between tho negro and white man, capitalist and planter, man and man. states and tho Government. National concerns aro almost for? gotten in domestic distress-Legis? latures trying to pass stay laws and i bankrupt hills-men fearing to lend to-day lest it become unlawful to col loct to-morrow-cotton tax three cents per pound-last year's failure a bar to this year's planting, and the negro suffrage down to justices of j the peace. ? They sinned when they took up ' nrms: they surrendered when they '?. laid them down. Would to God that thc destinies of ' this Republic were entrusted into the ? hands of the people of the Republic. Would to God that every man. white ; .?nd black. North and South, might be ' permitted to exercise his God-given, right of self-government and public j protection! ..Shall tile sword devour forever'.' ; Know you not that it will be bitter? ness it: the latter end?" MISSION Al IV. -> ? ? ? rloKiuniiEMURDER IX MAINE. -Geo. itolfe, an inoffensive man, aged thirty live years, was murdered, on Sunday morning, in thc Williams House, in ? Falmouth, by Eben Williams, aged1 twenty-one years, who shot him : through the hear! with a rifle, and then cut oft* his head with an axe. Williams was an imbecile, but being supposed harmless, was allowed to occupy the house with Rolfe, who .vas a pauper, as his servant. Wil? liams went to the house ol* his guard? ian in thc afternoon, and stated glee? fully what he had done. The body was found laid out, as it' for burial, and the head in a pail of water. -??.? A Hartford "ann.) woman is said to have whipp 1 her little son nearly to death, last u - k, because he played truant; and w' n. he was lying sense? less, flogged ano.her son in tho most brutal manner for tho same offence. Gen. Sickles to t!i<- Freedmen. Gen. Sickles, having ben sere? naded in Ctrurlestou bj-the colored people, addressed them ns follows: . My friends. 1 thanh yon for yon visit. Although unexpected, it is nunc tuc loss gratifying, lt is your privilege, not minc, ii? take part as a partisan in the political action of tho day. My duty is to see that every citizen of North aud South Carolina lias a full ain; fuir opportunity to vote as his judgment and consett nee may dictate. This duty I shall en? deavor to perform. Thc colored race in this country have pained just praise for their admirable conduct during the war and pending the re? cent agitation ol' their civil and po? litical enfranchisement, in my de -; partment, 1 can truly bear testimony I to your patient forbearance. When sorely provoked to retaliate by cruel acts of violence and humiliation, you have horne yourselves with uufalter- 1 iug confidence. The day of your! deliverance was no' distant. [Cl Let me enjoin upon you all i hour of vour success persevera M'S. sll-doiusr. Y now tube and their bread by the sweat of their i brows. [Applause. I Nutt'! b>r<> the land of their hirth moro fondly; none will defend it with more con? stancy and valor than those whose j labor make np the sum of a nation's wealth. [Applause.] So long as the destinies of this country are i. the haiais of 111.?,' wlioss limaos are made sacred by justice-whoso liberties > depend on tho courage with which they are maintained-the old ?lag j may defy all enemies, whether from without or within, [Creal applause.] It won':.! lu? difficult, under the most favorable circumstances, for any race of men to engage, ?ts yon have now to do, in the most interesting political event.-, without hoing deeply j moved by their importance and no-1 velty. Let me advise you as a friend, ] and as one nol without experience in | public affairs, to preserve at all times the utmost moderation of language, j temper and conduct. Avoid every- ; thing like violence, impatience or ' indecorum. Do not give even your, adversaries just occasion to complain ' of thc least disrespect .shown to, them in your discussions, private or public. And beware of those who. would endeavor to excite animosities j between the white and black races. The prosperity of thc South, the j welfare of the country, are intimately . associated with the harmony and ? good feeling which should exist bc- ' tween tho people of both races and j the South. Whatever seriously im- 1 pairs the interests of one race must result seriously to the other. Intel- j ligencc, culture, capital, land, are not less essential than labor, and yet, without labor, these eui have no solid and enduring foundation. You . have already shoVn your appr?cia tion of these, advantages by the eagerness with which you have om- ' ployed the opportunities lately given to you to educate! yourselves, it will* not be long before the white race in thc South will seo how deeply they arc interested in the education, industry, thrift and progress of their colored population, in this mutual dependence lie- tin1 security of all. Abundant time and opportunity will bo afforded and ample notice will be given of all the successive steps to be tak< n in the organization of thc State Government within my command, lt will not bo necessary, nor can it be otherwise than inju? rious to yourselves, for you to neglect your regular employment and asso? ciations to attend to political affairs. 1 promise you that without any such sacrifice on your part, every man in the Carolinas entitled to a voice in the decision of the great question to be passed upon under my supervi? sion, shall have a fair chance to act his part without let or hindrance from any one. My friends, I wish you all good night. [Enthusiastic 'cheers, j ? -? ^- . Mr. Stevens is always a forcible speaker, but unless the Democrat, shall again rally in solid column U his support, as they did when he advo cated thc reconstruction bill, heisjno likely to have much success in urgin confiscation.--iYcr York Tribune.
