Amid ail the horrors of reconstruction the people o] the south looked to him more than any other man as the great leader who was directing the minds and hearts of the people of the United States to constitu tiooal methods, and the Democracy of the whole county, ?nd especially of the south, owe to him a dept of gratitude it wi!! never forgot. The news of his death will be received with unfeigned sorrow throughout the country. Alexander Collie. NEW YOKK, Dec 12.-The Herald says this morning : Two men were the only mourners at Woodlawn cemetery yesterday at the funerel services over the body of Alexander Collie, a man who a few years ago was known in every European capi tal. In the civil war he was a noted blockade runner and establish quarters at Wilmigton, N. C. Under the guns of Fort Fisher this "block? ade king" carried on a thriving trade in the contraband articles of war and exported the cotton of the South. The house which he established at Wilmington waa an abode of luxury and lavish hospitality. There the leaders of the Southern Confederacy met to take counsel together Collie, who at one time could have drawn his check for millions of dol? lars, died on Nov. 15, almost desti tute, and his funeral expenses were paid by a son of au old friend There is no name on the coffin plate -for he died under the assumed nam*? of f??orare McNeil. SOUTHERN ENTERPRISES A First Rate Showing in Dif? ferent Lines for the Fast Week. _ BALTIMORE, Dec. 12 -A special dispatch to the Manufacturers' Record I announces that a site has been se- j lected at Rome, Ga , for a cotton I mill of 30,000 spindles, and 1,0001 looms, to cost about $600,000, to be built by a combination of Northern and Southern capitalists. There is already under construction in the same town a mill of about the same size, which is being erected by one of the oldest cotton mill corporations in New England. Among the enterprises reported for the week, were the purchase of 91,000 acres of timber land in Flori? da and the purchase in the same State by Minnesota capitalists of 440,000 acres of another large body of timber land for $140,000. with the intention of erecting large lumber mills and turpentine plants A $30,* 000 lumber company and a hosiery mill in Georgia ; the purchase in Kentucky of oil and gas lands by I Pennsylvania people and arrange? ments for opening up 10,000 acres of coal lands ; active mining; ; a $100,000 cooperage company in Louisiana ; extensive glass factory in Baltimore and two manufacturing companies, $100,000 and $2u,U?U capital respectively, in the same city. North Carolina report? au electric light plant and a gfro.OOO cotton mill; South Carolina a *ash and blind factory, a koitting mi !, a quarrying enterprise and a 45 ton ice plant; Tennesee, lumber mills to be built by Indiana people, a knitting mill, iron and wire works and the projection of a $25,000 cooperage company; Texas, a ?25,000 canning factory and,an extensive irrigation system ; Virginia, a com mill, a cot? ton mill and an iron mining enter? prise. A Plain Point. Thc rise in the price of the fleecy staple causes the natural fear that next year the farmer ef (he South will plant every available acre in cotton and raise such a crop as the world has never be? fore known. The newspapers of the South and the most progressive thinkers among the planters are already hard at work to prevent the commission of such an egregious blunder. The experience of the past year should have ttiujougbly taught Southern farmers that as loug as gold mooometalism prevails ?he only way for them to get a good price for their cotton is by fighting thc contract? ion of the curreooy with a contraction of the yield of cotton. If they oeit year raise a crop not more thc o a miliou bales larger tan this year's they will get as good, or better, prices as have prevailed this fall. If, however, they close their eyes to the plain teachings of this year's experience4 and bend j every effort next year to making as J many bales of cotton as possible, they j will be lucky if they get five cents a ? pound for the next crop. In this con? nection, we commend the following crisp comment from the Lancaster Eu? terprise : "When the farmers of the South begiu to plain for uext year's crop they should bear in oxind that it pays better to raise three bales of cnt tou for $103 then it does to raise five for that amount. See the point?" That sizes up the situation exactly without wasting words. The man who cannot "see the point" is to be pited. The "point" is so plain that a mau can fail to see it only by wilfully clos? ing his eyes -Columbia Register. Wheo most needed it is not unusual foi your family physician to be away from home Such was the experience of Mr. J. V Scheock, editor of the Caddo, Jod. Ter.; Banner, when his little girl, two years of ag? was threatened with a severe attack of croup He says : "My wife insisted that I po foi the doctor, but as our family physician wai out of town I purchased a bottle of Chamber' Iain's Cough Remedy, which relieved hei immediately. I will not be without ititi tfci future." 25 and 50 cent bottles for sale bj Dr. X. J.

He comes back to make his report ?.> tne governor and solicitor, and will then re? turn to search for them. He says the j parties are hiding io the swamp, and that while he didn't nee them, he has j reason to believe he was very near to I their hiding place. He says lie does j not think they intend leaviug the coun? try, but that they are srayiug in hid? ing only until they can see their attor? ney. Mr. Black saya his efforts are be? ing hindered by a few persons in the \ neighborhood, oue of them an officer. So far as I can hear there is very lit- j tie sympathy for the lynchers in this i OOUOty Mr Black says that the deed is very geoerally condemoed by the people of the Broxtoo Ford neighbor? hood, except by a few connection* and particular friends of the lynchers. Ht says that the first account given in The State is substantially correct, and. that the killing was a roost brutal affair. Much sympathy is expressed fer the families of some of the lynchers but not for the lynchers themselves. 0?e of them is especially well-counected, having both a father and a brother in the ministry, and a most excellent mother and sister. Notwithstanding this, the people seem determined that punishment shall be meted out for the crime if published ncoount* are true. Once before the war two white meo were huog in this county for whipping negroes to death. Some people seem to think that the trial justice who held the inquest should be removed for not having the parties arrested as soon a? the verdict was ren? dered. Every effort, will be made to capture the men and have them tried. --m>-mm-mmm Many Clerkships Wanted. It begins to look as if the whole State is going to apply for positions in the engrossing department of the Legislature which meets in Jamuarv. There are about fifteen or tweoty clerk? ships open and for them there are about 600 applications. The Attorney Gen i eral has the appointment of them, and j he willi probably get his list made out this week, and the lucky ones will be duly informed. He will probably give one half the appointments to women. Register. Cuban Headquarters. Washington, Dec 12.-The arrival .io this city of General Gonzalo de Que sada, ?be well-known agitator for the freedom of Cuba, and the announce? ment of his intention to arrange for the establishment of headquarters in Wash iajitoo, have been matters of much in ioteresr to-day when the facts become geoerally known. Orber members of the Cuban committee of the United States will be in Washington in * short time, delegate Palma following General Quesada in a few days. The campaign for recognition of the billigerents will be vigorously prosecuted here wkbout any delay. Several Cubans who called upon General Quesada upon his arrival last night were made acquainted, as nearly ns possible, with current events as they are progiessing iu their army FIGURES OF"THE FIGHT. Interesting Details of the Charleston Election. CHARLESTON, Dec. 12.-The edi? torial in to day's issue of the State referring to the result of the munici pal election and commenting on the "misleading" character of the press dispatches sent out from this city, was read with great interest. In order that the outside world may have the benefit of the ottVr j side of the story through the medium of your widely circulated paper, the following frets are given : . Up to 3 o'clock on the day of election Huger's election was confi I dently claimed After that hour vot ing fell off, excepting those holding back for money-and it is claimed that it flowed like water in the inter? est of Mr. Smyth Two-thirds of the negro vote is claimed to have been polled for him The Huger side were committed against anyr unfair methods and they claimed that no money was used As a result Huger was beaten by 2T8 votes, but he carried the six upper wards Fifteen out of twenty nine nominees on bis ticket were elected-12 aldermen and t! school commissioners-as against the may? or, 12 aldermen and otie school com missioner on the Smyth ticket The other two school commissioners were on both tickets. Of 12 Catholics on the Smyth aldermanic ticket, nine were de? feated. The Citizens' party might have claimed the entire election on a technicality-o06 Smyth bailors be ing protested as under the legal measure-but all contests and pro? tests were withdrawn to-day and the election was declared by the com? missioners on the face of the returns as previously reported. One more such victory and thc "Regulars" would be undone. It is really hailed by the Citizens' party as a victory in itself that 2.200 voters were found here who would go to the polls and vole in defiance of boss dictation and denunciations. / I The Ladies' Home Journal for 1896. !
