•‘Old rKdinseh” on the War Path.
Gen. Wm T. Sherman baa seen
lit to throat bis views on the public
once again ; this time he takes the
present condition of the negro as
the subject for bis consideration.
This is what he says concerning
the colored man:
“They still form one tenth of our
aggregate population. They were
onoe slaves, but are now free ; not
only free, but entitled by the Con
stitution and laws to all the privi
leges of American citizenship. They
area kindly, domeatic and iuoflcu
sive race, and since the world be
gan no higher virtue was ever ex-
etcistd than by these lo*l> people,
who toiled in the fields to raise corn
and food for the rebel armies in
Virginia aud Georgia wh m the)
knew to be employed to perpetuate
their o« n bondage. Every Son th
em gentleman who has a spark oi
knighthood left in his nature should
take off his bat to the old bonds
man who stayed at home to caie
for his mistresa and the young la
dies while be was himself awa\
fighting to destroy hisoan gov
ernment, and to strengthen the fet
ters which bound his slave to the
master. That bondsman is now
free, and by the Constitution aud
laws of his land is t ntitled to a vote
as though he were born a free white
man; but we all knew then, as we
know now, that constitutions aud
laws are idle winds.|JPeople are
governed by usages, customs, aud
not by laws.
•‘The n>-gro is not permitted to
vote if the vote distmbs the judg
ment oi the white minority ; and if
it changes the verdict of their for
mer masters it is not counted.
“What is the use of shutting our
eyes to a well known taotf We
did so from 1850 to 1860, and have
paid the penalty. The next war
may be avoided by reason and com
mon sense, and if I can help to
avert it 1 will feel moie honored
thau*ln past victories and triumphs.
I say to the South, let the negro
vote, count bis vote honestly. It
will oot disturb, but, on the con
trary, will hasten yonr prosperity
and stability as a people. There is
no one talking to me about ‘bloody
shirts’—1 have seen enough of
them; yea, onats and cverooata ens
sanguined by the heart’s Mood ot
the best fawn who ever lived. I
begged and implored my fr ends in
Louisiana, in 1861, not to arouse
the enmity of the sleeping lion of
the North. Ever siooe 'lie begin
ning of time Southern people have
been quick to anger, bat not endur
lug. The Northern people, per
contra, are slow to anger, bat once
aroused, are not easv to allay. The
Northern people will not long per
mit the negro vote to be suppiess
ed, and yet be counted in the polit
tail game against them. Better
met t the question honestly. Ask
the abrogetioa of Article XIV of
the amendments to the Coustitu
Uon of the United States, or allow
the negro to vote, and^oount his
vote. Otherwise, so sure es there
Is a God in heaven, yon will have
another war, more ornel than the
last, when the torch and dagger
will take the place of the mnskets
of wellordered battalions. The
negro is gaining in experience and
intelligenoe every day, aud be has
read Byron: ‘Oereditary bonds
men, know ye not, who would be
free, themselves must strikp the
blowf Should the negro strike
that blow, in seeming justice, there
will be millions to assist them.
Were 1 to-day a citizen of Louis
isns, as 1 was in 1861,1 would far
prefer HUd Shady’ as a votei than
any of the Bohemians who reach
Oaatle Garden by thousands even
day of the year. 1 kuow my South
ern friends will answer: “Why not
leave ns alone V We are now all
agreed—we are ‘solid.’ So they
were in 1861, when e tthe of their
aamber, united by self interest,
made the whole mass to sacrifice
their lives aud wealth for the alleg
ed proteetloo ot the slave property
of the few.”
With His Wife's Help
(Elt Jay. Id Soulhtrn Cultivator.)
In accordance with a request from
a “North Carolina Subscriber,” aud
yourself also, I herewith proceed to
give briefly, twenty years’ experi
enoe in the cultivation of light
lauds on the sand ridges of Sonth
Carolina, for what it ia worth, to
whom it may concern. I attribute
my success daring the above de
signaled number of years to work
rotation and rest. Experience
teaches me to have jnst enough
land in cultivation to rotate crops
lu this order: First sow smal
grain; scooud, sow peas aud turn
under; third, plant cotton; fourth,
follow cotton with coru ; filth, tnru
on! Inud to rest for one year. For
1887, according to this plan, the
yield of a one-horse farm was as
follows: Fifteen acres in cotton
produced fifteen bales of cotton,
weighing five hundred pounds each
fifteen acree m eora harvested 20<
bushels; my fodder reached 4,000
pounds; my peas measured sixty
bushels; trom five acres ia wheat,
I got aevonty-five bushels; from
five acres in oats, one hundred
bushels; then 1 made from my wa
termeion patch besides bavin
plenty to eat, f 15.00; of potatoes
made one hundred bushels; my
‘4Mnt,cured, weighed 1,500 pounds :
K pfit realised from poultry aua
tier, the product of one oow and
twelve beus was 130.00. This
makes the total amonot of income
from farm 11,442.75, while the to
tal expenditure was only $440,00,
leaving a profit of $1,00275,, which

Aueut a notice concerning the
neglected condition of Marion’s
grave which appesred in the Man
ning Time* and which has been
generally republished, the Charles
ton Budget sa) »:
••The error to be not e«l is the state
ment that Marion’s grave is in
Georgetown County, whereas, ss a
matter ot fact, his ashes lay at
Belle Isle plantation, St. Stephen’s
Parish, Berkeley. Bow the writer
of the above could have been led
into this error is inexplicable.
One ot the early issues of The
Budget in 1887 contained some very
interestiugaud valuable information
concerning tbe condition of Gener
al Marion’s grave wbicb at this
time will bear republicaticn.
Tbe facta are that about three
yeara ago during a storm a mas
sive sugar-berry tree was blown
across tbe grave of tbe Sir amp
Fox, and that of Mrs. Marion which
adjoins his, > nd tbe stone slab over
tbe General’s grave was completely
shattered. There was considera
ble interest expresaed at the time,
aud a country paper, possibly with
more pattiotism than influence and
doiiais, pioposed to raise a fund
with which to replace the slab, aud
put the graves in good condition.
A few dollars were sent in, hot iu
terest languished, and nothing
more has ever been done toward
tbe consummation of this most
laudable object.
It is forther stated that tbe ne
groes. tbe only present occupants
of Belle Isle plantation, have cut
up tbe sugar-berry tree for fire
wood, and have carried away trig
meats of the shattered alab which
are now doing service as oven backs
in nnmerons negro hovels around
the couutiyside.
Unless something is done to re
claim tbe graves of tbe famons old
Bet olatu na j Lero and his wife from
tbe decat and min into which they
*re rapidly falling, it will not be
long before they will be in tbe same
condition as the grave ot the old
patriot, William Moultrie, who
died in 1805 full of years and bon
ors, and was ouried at “Windsor”
plantation in 8t. James, Goose
Creek. No tomb was ulaotd over
his grave, and his family and ad
mirrra contiooed patting it off year
after year nutil in 1852, when
number of gentlemen visited the
old buryiug ground to locate the
grave for the purpose of erecting a
shaft over it, to their mortifleatiou,
and tbe mortification of all persons
who value the memory of the old
heroes of 76, it was impossible to
identify it among the many brush
grown mounds ia the decayed en
closure.
In speaking of Marion’s grave, it
might be of interest to many to
kuow that in tbe Rocky Blufl
swamp, in Sumter County, there is
a low island—uow altogether inac-
eessible, unless a person ia willing
to gala it on foot, cutting bis way
through the dense eaoebrakrs
which surround it, with an axe—
upon which can still be seen the
ruins of one of Marion’s old rendez
vous. The spot where the shanties
for the protection of the soldiers
were erected is marked by the re
mains of mud oliimneys, and tbe
old forge where tbe horses were
shod ia almost intact. The old
fashioned anvil was in its plaoe un
til a few years ago when a country
blacksmith penetrated the swamp,
and bronght it away, and It is now
doing good service iu these piping
times of peaoe, as it did under the
hammer of some stalwart old sol
dier-. mitb a hundred years ago.

(Southern Christina Advomln.)
The announcement lhat the Rev
P. B. Jackson of the South Caro
lina Conierenoe had consented to
a transfer to California took his
friends by surprise. The Abbe
ville Medium states that he wil
leave this week for his new field of
labor. The South Carolina Con-
feience wi l part with Brother Jack
son wi h regret. He is one of oar
most useful and promi*iug young
preachers. For tbe past two yeara
be baa been in charge of Abbeville
station, one of oar most important
pastoral charges. Bis snooess in
thia field has been marked. There
has been steady growth iu every
department of Church work, and
the charge was perhaps never in
better condition than now, spiritu
ally or financially. By hia faithful
and earnest labors, both iu and out
of tbe pulpit, Brother Jackson has
endeared himself not only to his
own congregation, but to tbe entire
community. Most heartily do we
commend him to the confidence and
love of the brethren on tbe Pacific
coast. They will find iu him a
genial companion, a faithful friend,
a strong and able preacher and an
earnest aud zealous Pastor. In
the name of bis brethren of the
South Carolina Conierenoe, we with
Brother Jackson a happy and pros-
porous career in bis new field of
labor, and a speedy return to uis
old home aud Conierenoe.

A Carolina Indian Chief-
(MeDonnld Furtunn ia 8uatci*Advna«n )
la Janaary, 1887, tbe Jfete* mud
Courier inform d oa that the Ca
towba Indians were “on the law
path.” They were not after the
bloody scalp of any pale face, but
were looking up a elaim to 144,-
000 acne, which formerly belonged
to them, and to a good (lait of
which. I iielieve, they still have a
just claim. The Indian mo-t prom
incut in buutiug op thin claim ap
pears to have been Tbomxs Morri
son, Chief ot tbe Catawbas A lew
words about him Mid his people
will not be nuinterestiug to those
of yonr readers who are fond of our
Indian history, lor Chief Morrison
is not only a civilized, bat also a
Carolina Indian Chief
Mr. A E. Smith, of Bock Bill,
who is the agent for the Catawbas,
in a recent letter to the writer ol
this article, says ot these Indiana:
“About 60 live oo tbe reservation.
92 in all, the others are scattered
abool at different points, but main
tain their identity. Tbe reserva
tion contains 720 acres, situated in
Catawba Township, in York Couu
ty, onthe waters ol the Catawba
Biver”
Last March the writer received
an interesting letter from James
Harrison tone of the Catawbas)
aud from it we learn that Chief
Morrison went away from his |h*o
pie when he was small aud return
ed in 1886. His wife was dead
when Harris wrote She wan half
Catawba. He was married in tbe
Cboetaw Nation. Mr. Smith writes,
“Chief Morrisou i- about 45 years
of age.” The government of the
Catawbas is rather Republican in
form : “In electing our chief,” says
Harrison in his entertaining letter,
“we hold a convention and ap|K>mt
him, then call a mass meeting and
elect him by voting.” Harris says
lhat Thomas Morrison was elected
Chief aa near as he could tell from
memory on November 5tb, 1886.
The Chieftaincy ot the Catawbas ia
something more than anempty title;
again 1 quote from Harris’s letter,
“the Chief has (lie authority to do
all public business lor the tribe,
while others do not ” The newspa
rs mention two viaits that Chief
orrisou has paid to Columbia in
the interest ot bis people; both vis
its occurred Isst year, one in Janu
ary, the other iu December. He
has manifested an earnest ink rest
ia the rights sod welfare of tba Ca
tawbas. When he visited Colom
bia in January, 1887, the Columbia
Register, speaking of him. another
red mau wlo accompanied him,
tells os; “they were both clad in
the habiliments ot civilisation and
had uotbiog about them to attract
unusual notice save their strongly
Indian features.” The Chief waa
mentioned as “being a man of more
than ordinary statue” and was “wry
dear and “difficult to converse
with.” Tbe Columbia correspondent
ot tbe Aogoata Ckrouiele has spo
ken ot Chief Morrison as “an in lei
llgeut Indian” and of bi« “having
served nobly through the war, and
rendered invaluable servioes ns a
scout in the Confederate army
From thia we learn that Thomas
Morrisou, besides being an Indian
Chief, has also been a brave Indian
warrior.
Such is a brief sketch of Thoms*
Morrisou, Chief of the Catawbas, a
nation ot Indiana who have been as
brave, if oot braver, than were the

They Have Deceived Themselves
(Tbe NdUod.)
It is evident already to a dose
observer of tbe present political
campagin that tbe Republicans
have wofully deceived themselves
sboutt jeir main reliance for *uc«
oeas, namely, their ability to fright
en the wot king classes by the ars
gument that a reduction of Federal
taxes meaua a reduction of wages—
ia other words, that American
workingmen earn better wagea on
tbe average than most European
workingmen solely because of our
protective duties. It i* retributive
justice that this failure of a sophis
tioal argument is due to the real
cause of the better financial condi
tion of Americau wage em nera, that
is, to ’.heir greater intelligence. If
the questions which are under dis
cussion in this year’s campaign
were argued before constituencies
of a low order of intelligence, it
would be easy to convince them, by
the mere statement, that because
wages are higher here, aud because
we have a hlgb tariff, therefore the
wages depend on tbe tariff. To de
monstrate tbe error of this proposi
tion requires an argument which
will attract the atteatioa aud ap
peal to the reason only of men who
oan think for themselves. Tbe tar
iff reformers hold that the main
reason why Americau workmen get
better pay than their European
fellow-craftsmen la most blanches
Is because they werk with more Iu-
teUigeuce. produce hatter results ia
a given time, and no are “worth
more” to their employers. The
Democrats, ■odor President Cleve
land’s lead, hare honored ^ ^
ean workingmen by placing faith
in tbeir ability to understand the
ngbt of ibis great question,* and
the early indication* from Maine
and Newark have proved that they
have not overestimated tbe Amer
ican workingman’s intelligenoe.
Girls in the Garden.
It there ia one thing more beauti
ful than another iu a garden of
flowers, that thing is a beautiful
girl, with a suubonuet on her head
so wide aud capacious that you
have to get right nquare before her
and pretty near i er, to see tbe
glowing cheeks that are sure to be
there if she is at all accustomed to
garden walks and works. Pbysi
cally, there cau be nothing better
for daughters, aud, indeed, for
many wives, than to take sole
charge of a small flower garden.
The benefits derived from early
rising, stirring tbe soil, snuffing
tbe pure air, are freshness and
glow ot cheek and brigbtnes of e)e,
cheerfulness of b mper, vigor of
mind and purity of heart. Conse
quently, she must be more cheerful
aud lovely as a daughter, more dig
nified aud womanly as s sinter, aud
more attractive and confiding as a
wife. If you have not the doorvard
ground, then get a dozen pots and
plant the seed of flowers to your
taste. Tbe care and attemiou re
quired to rear aud train tbe grow
ing plants occupies the mind, to
tbe exclusion, oftentimes, of sense
less novel reading, a senseless waste
of time. You listless, pale taoed,
fragile thing of a girl, throw of
your mock delicacy, put on gloves,
if you will, but wora iu the garden
till your cheeks will vie iu color
with the blush of tbe rose you cul
tivate.— lYetter* Rural.
