THK I'OI.I.Y AND CRIME OF THE SOUTH. i'nder the above caption the New York Sun of last Sunday undertakes to read the South a moral lecture on its treatment of the negro, and to give it some gratuitous advice bear ing on the general principles of polit ical economy. /Vs usual with most of the northern papers that under take to mould our morals and shape our policy, it shows its utter igno rance of the actual conditions, and is so warped by prejudice and blinded by malice that its opinions are worth less and its advice superfluous. It virtually asserts that the lawless element among the negroes is no greater than that among the whites, and Unit if the negroes should organ ize any extensive movement to leave the South there would arise forth with a general cry of alarm, and the whites would organize on their part to prevent the execution of the pro ject, even to the extent of using vio lent measures. We do not believe that there would be any general or serious objection to such a movement on the part of the negroes, but on the other hand nine- tenths of the whites would hail it with j >y us the long sought-for solu tion of a hitherto vt xing and unsolva hie social and political problem, and that the great body of the white peo ple would do all they reasonably could to aid the movement. It is true, us the Sun says, that negro labur is cheap. It is true also, as the Sun does not seem to know, that it is cheap because to a great extent it is unreliable and inefficient. It is true, further, became the pro ducts of negro labor are cheap. I’n reliable labor producing a cheap com modity cannot be otherwise than cheap. Of course we have in mind absolute, and not relative, figures. I’nder such conditions labor, at ever so low a figure, might be excessively high when compared with the value of its out-put. In estimating the value of negro labor to the country at large, there is another fact which has been over looked, the negro is a great consum er. We seriously doubt if the whole out-put of negro labor in tho South to-day is more than the race con sumes. Indeed, we doubt if it is as much. A large and rapidly increas ing proportion of the negro race are idle and thriftless. Another consid erable proportion are the seekers of light temporary jobs which when per formed add nothing to the staple commodities of the country. A com paratively small proportion of the race are steady producers, while all are of necessity steady consumers. In the light of these facts our infer ence that the race consumes more than it produces assumes a high degree of probability. With such probability admitted, it would be folly indeed for the white people of the 8outh to throw any obstructions in the way of a general emigration of the negroes. If such emigration could take place lands would be im mediately so cheapened that the best agricultural laborers of the world would he immediately attracted to them, and the South would start out on a career of material prosperity never known before. Tire cheapen ing of the land would work no real hardship to the land owners, for the lands under the present management are for the most part unprofitable. Hut it useless to discuss this phase of tho subject further, for general emigration at this time is impossible. The great majority of the negro race are contented and would not leave if they could. The Sun complains that the South is killing the goose which lays the golden egg hy subjecting the negroes to treatment which will finally drive them out of the country. That »s simply ridiculous. If the Sun will show us the golden egg we will he re sponsible for the goose. The Sun asserts further that the negro is disfranchised in violation of the constitution of the United States and that such disfranchisement is dangerous to the general government. If this is anything more than sense less twaddle, it is the ranting of pre judice or the multeriiiga of hate. Tho Kouth lias been compelled in ticif-ricferco to do what she could towards counteracting the Hood of real dangers which the general gov ernment in its blind animosity turn ed loose upon the country over thirty years ago, and in the emergency has disfranchised many white men along with the negroes, in order to keep within constitutional limits. So the franchise of both races rests on ex actly the same foundation. She has only checked the Hood. In tho meanwhile she is giving tho negro an opportunity equal to that of the white man of rising to the standard of full citizenship. • NOTES AND COMMENTS. THE“KERNEL" AT THE REUNION. Things that He Heard and Saw. A charter has been obtained for the building of the largest cotton mill in the South, at Columbia. The name is to be the Olympia and the capital stock is fixed at $1,500,000, with shares at $1,000.^ The mill will oper- I ate 105,000 spindles and 2,000 Nur- thop looms. Truly the mills are coming to the cotton, and New Eng land is left with the bag to hold. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ The potato bug pest lias been on tho increase for several years. It comes in on schedule time this jear and will completely ruin tiie Irish potato crop if it is not checked. Nothing so far tried is so ellective in stopping its ravages as Paris Green. Sprinkle the vines with a strong so lution late in the evening or early in tiie morning, and the bug will soon disappear. ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ Judge Brawley, in our opinion, has made an unnecessary blow over the neglect of General Wheeler at the Charleston re-union. It looks a lit tle like the judge is piqued at tiie thought that lie himself did not at- tract quite the attention that he ex pected. General Wheeler himself says that he did not feel slighted in the least, but on ihe other hand was highly gratified at tiie honors paid him. That ought to settle it. Gen eral Walker with 30,(XX) people on his hands, could not be reasonably expected to look after every man separately, no matter if that man was a distinguished general. 11 is generally conceded among the veterans that Charleston entertained the re-union in bountiful and superb style. There was plenty to eat and every body got a place to sleep. The opinion prevails, how ever. that the sponsors occupied too much time and space. The re-union is becoming overloaded with them. Pretty girls are always attractive, but they are not in demand on oc casions where time or space is im portant. One girl will take up as much room as three men and she is utterly oblivious to the flight of min utes and hours. It is said that hun dreds of these sponsors crowded the stage while the veterans stood in the hack ground, and so much time and thought were given to their enjoy ment as seriously to interfere with the true objects of the meeting. General Hampton publishes a card in which lie expresses his apprecia tion of tiie motives that have promt- ed the people to oiler to rebuild his house, but positively declines to ac cept the proffered aid. This is about what we expected. Hampton in his poverty and old age is still a hero, proud, self-reliant, and unconquera ble. He would die before he would eat the bread of charity or submit to the least degree of humiliaii >u. But this proffered aid on the part of tiie people is not a charity, not even a gift, but a righteous debt all of which can never be paid either in monej, or gratitude, or love. We hope that hy some means the General can b e per suaded to take a correct view of the matter, and that the movement will go on to its consummation. Many of the old alchemists be lieved that somewhere in the hidden field* of nature there was a remedy for all the ills of the flesh and the means of perpetually renewing youth, and thereby of prolonging life indefi nitely. They sometimes conceived of it as the philosopher’s stone, which by being rubbed on the flesh would impart its wonderful virtues to the human system, and smnetimes as a fountain in w hich if a man hat lied lie would live forever. It is said now that some man has at last discovered that the juices of gnats contain the elixir which the old alchemists spent their lives in attempts to discover. If this be true, tiie South will have a new industry added toiler varied list, which will heat cotton and cotton mills so fur that they will bo left out of the account. Tiie beauty of it will he that tho raw material is unlimited and that it requires no kind of culti vation, and we suppose no costly ma chinery will be needed for the manu facture—nothing to do hut just to catch it ami squeeze it. $ioo Reward, $ioo.

Hall's Fauiiry Fills arc the ls-st INTERESTING INCIDENTS Speaker Frank Cary Presents the Resolu tion I’itssed by the South Carolina Cenortil Assembly—I.lcutenant-Oov. MeS weeny's Patrlotie Address. Etta Jane, Muv 17.—Note:—As hundreds of our Ledger readers are looking for our report of the grand re-union, we don’t intend that they shall be disappointed, even if we have to omit our news letter. So we continue from where we left oil last week. After prayer by Chaplain Jones Hon. Frank B. Gary, J8p°aker of the House of Representativesjof the State of South Carolina, was introduced by General C. Irvin Walker, commander U. C. Veterans, of the Soutli Caro lina Division. Speaker Gary called attention ‘to tiie ^resolutions passed hy the general assembly of the State and us the mouth-piece of that body said that the resolutions lie was hidden to present was no empty and meaningless platitude, but it ex pressed the heartfelt appreciation of a great and grand people. He then read the resolutions which most of our readers have already seen. We omit them here. Continuing he said: “To none of the veterans is a warmer greeting extended than to the privates who stood behind the guns, and who without pride or posi tion to stimulate or divert, forced the dangers of battle with unfaltering de votion and furnished an example of as true heroism as can be found upon the pages of any history.” He re cited an incident in which General Stephen I). Lee, said to a color bearer to give him the colors that he might rally his men, when the sol dier replied: “Tell me when to go and I v.iil carry them. I am en trusted with this flag and no man can get It frotn me.” (Applause.) Concluding lie said: “In the name of the sons and daughters of those who were your comrades in arms and fellow sullerers under a iiag which now though furled forever, was not dishonered, and in the name of the self-sacrificing women of Soutli Carolina we bid you welcome to our homes and welcome to our hearts.” (Immense applause ) Tiie clear dis tinct voice of speaker Gary could be heard throughout tiie crowded audt- torum in which thousands were cup- livuted by his eloquence. General Walker then at tho con clusion of speaker Gary’s address said: “I regret to say that tiie health of Governor Eilerbe is such that hr cannot be present in response to our invitation. He writes that his heart goes out in fullest sympa thy with the resolution. South Caro lina is fortunate in having such a worthy representative of the execu tive department in the person of Lieu tenant M. B. McSweeny to present. He then introduced Lieutenant Gov ernor McSweeny who read a carefully prepared speech in which were ex pressed some noble sentiment as well as patriotism. He began thus, Gen eral Gordon, Chairman, ladies, vet erans and fellow citizens: “It is in deed painful to me to announce to you in opening this address that his excellency, Governor Eilerbe, has been hindered by protracted illness from welcoming you in accordance with the usage on occasions like this as the guests of our State. Con tinuing he said : “You will be told by others that the city of Charles ton is yours to-day, and will he yours during the full term of your visit within its hospitable walls. Its pleasure boats, carriages,, railways and gardens of beauty are yours. The old city is not dismayed hy the events of the past half century, al though at one time shocked by per petual thunder of cannon,—lit up by the lurid lightening of war guns aimed at the very spies of holy sanc- tiarins; then shocked by the inerei- lass grasp of fearful earthquake, and time and again rocked and lushed by the force of unrelenting wind storms driving before them an enraged sea, foaming waves wiiich lushed in mud destruction against the very walls of beautiful homes which to-day are so serene and beckon you with hospi tality. During these trying ex periences the citizens of the grand old city remained steadfast at the post of duty, thus writing a place in Iter history winch shines gloriously with that of any city of modern times, and us grandly thrilling us are tiie ancient incidents which made Home great. I therefore indulge tiie hope that this will prove a most entertaining visit. There is much of interest for you to see, and while here you may read frotn living evi dences, page after page of the event ful history of Charleston, known us the “cradle of secession,” a city so honored to day hy having a whole army us her guests. I say also that you are the guests of South Carolina and when I repeat to you that you are welcome, thrice welcome, to all that can give you pleasure within her borders, I hear that sentiment re echoed. 1 hear that sentiment en dorsed hy our governor from his in valid chair, I hear tiie voices of ap proval us they ring out from tiie lips of all Chariest m rolling on un til the soutii wave reaches Tybte and climbs the peaks of the iMue Ridge. Your coming to-day from all parts of the Confederacy in grand re-union convocation us our guests confers upon South Carolina tiie very highest compliment—a distinc tion that any State might feel an ; lint orable pride in enjoying. In bringing offering* of praise and i wilcotne and laying them witli loving ban is at the feet of the living our dea l are not forgotten. Tho gruit 1 chieftains, Davis, Lee, Jackson, Beauregard, Johns >n, Stephens, the Hills and almost on army of which but few )reinain can never he for gotten. Their deeds are linked with fame immortal—their names were never born to die,” It is respect, love and veneration that prompts me to refer to the dead on this festal oc casion. I do not wish to sadden your hearts, nor would I do so could I discharge my duty otherwise. As wo look down tho lines of o!d regi ments we see nothing "Kxceiit now and then astray iiIntH'tlc” and lie unlit for duty-—an arm or a leg gone. The commanding voices of generals are hushed in death. The earthly roil calls they no longer an swer. But while they are dead in ilesh and body they still live in mem ory. Their lives and characters still live in glory and in light and as long as there remains on earth a Con federate mother or daughter to strew flowers tiie sweetest and most fragrant will be selected for their tombs. As long as there is a Con federate tongue to speak it will hal low tiie spot where the bones of these heroes rest, and in a figure of speech will pile to the very heavens majestic columns of their glorious records— jewels won in a “lost cause.” To-day we have to hunt among the tombs of our dead to find the last resting place of the great majority of those who composed the Confederate army but thank God we have in liv ing presence a noble fragrant of the grand old regiments though time worn and battle-scared—with miss ing limbs showing the foot prints of time botli by feature and frosted hair. Xerces never felt a more glorious pride when lie surveyed his army beyond tiie Hellespont than I do to-day in the privilege of behold ing the veterans of the Confederacy and bidding them welcome to our State iu the name of her citizens. Now, to you my battle-scared veteran fathers, who composed tiie rank and file of the grand old army as private soldiers—you whose his tories have been written upon tiie tablets of memory, but we tell you that as a fact that your history—in dividual history—was written among the first incidents of the war by your loyalty, your patriotism, your suf fering, your bloodshed, your cour age, and last of all your undying de votion to the “lost cause,” in the hearts of those who led you in bat tle and whose glory you helped to win. Turn now with me to those who tire now sleeping “beneath the sod,” and from the glory and fame you so faithfully and unfalteringly helped to establish and perpetuate, read your own glory. Pardon me for being personal when 1 refer to and pay homage to the dead of our own State. On that roll there are Gen erals Gist, Jenkins, Evans. Eiliott, Bratton, Monigault, Mart, Gary. Jackson, Httgood, Kershaw, Ken nedy, James Conner, W. L. Bonham and others whose names will always be remembered though they sleep in their graves. Turn with me to the living and we find Gen. John I>. Gordon, Gen. Joe Wheeler, Gen. Stephen D. Lee, and other distinguished guests, then to our own Hampton, Butler, Capers, Haskell, and other surviving vet erans. In paying eur offerings and bring ing our liibuto of love and respect tt> Hie tombs of our Confederate dial, and in jus! praise of living veterans, I offer no insult to the flag of our country. "The Star Spangled itamiiT.” l.ong. inir, It wave "O'er the land of tlie free and home of tiie brave.” Mayor Smyth was introduced and in behalf of Charleston welcomed the veterans and visitors. Among the many good things ho said we caught the following: Mr. Chairman and Comrades: As I attempt the welcome Charleston offers to the United Confederate Veterans this honor touches me for tiie high tide in the honors of a for tunate life. In this city tho first ordinance of secession was passed. Over yonder broad and bountiful harbor that beautiful April morning thirty-eight years ago. just as the sun-beams were reddening the expectant East, reverberated tho roar of the first cannon ot" the war. As the hustling sound of that shot was echoed and re-echoed over the length and breadth of tiie South it proved the tocsin that summoned her sons to defend their homes and firesides. Itj called upon them to die, if needs be, for principles which we hold us precious and as dear to-day as when we fir&t donned the grey. It seems meet and fitting that in this “Cradle of Secession” where the war began, your heroes of the “Lost Cause” who for four long weary years did all that men could do against overwhelming odds, should gather together over a generation af ter the close of that war. Charles ton’s great heartbeats us true as ever to the cause you love. There is the same reverence here to-day fur the Confederate memories the same warm love for the Confederate sol diers and all he represents as in those days when Charleston bared her breast, in defense of glorious and immortal principles. There are in Charleston to-day four camps of veterans, three of sons of veterans and as large and active a chapter of the Daughters of the Confederacy as you will find any where in the South. They all join to welcome you to Charleston and the precious association and memo ries that cluster so thickly around her battle-seared walls. Your ranks were thinned and de :i- mated often upon the field of bat tle, yet now with prompt obedience to the order, “close up men,” you come shoulder to shoulder with un broken and unwaving lines. Some*of our comrades, will never witness another Re-union. Tho ice of ago is freezing in our veins. Daily and houriy our ranks grow thinner.
