Our readers remember late call made on Gerrit

Mr.. Smith in his reply to that CALL states
"Of the three thousand colored men to whom
gave land, probably less than City have taken and
continue to hold possession Of their grants What
is worse, half the three thousand as Judge, have
either sold their land been so careless as to allow
it TO be sold for taxes"
This is very satisfactory to all who know what
could and should have been expected, bu: look how
is explained in the opinion of the Boston Journal
which says:
!" Mr.. Smith very frankly admits that the princi.
pal cause Of this failure owing to the sterile ma.
ture of the land. Wherever the land was of good
quality. and advantageously located Those who oc.
cupied it have prospered."
Mr.. Smith very frankly" tells the truth, and
the Boston Journal and kindred organs are as frank

TOUCHING THEN IN THE POCKET NERvE.-AI the

this represent them as being unusually dull Except
the Peabody Jete given by Mr.. Wetmore, where two

young ladies, there has been nothing at Newport call

very recently, almost deserted. The immense draw

across which few lonesome looking individuals
might be seen promenading at odd hours of the day.
while the Germania Band and Dodworth 8 celebrated
corps Of musicians have given their delicious operate
strains day after day to unoccupied corridors and
soudes of park. Why is this? Have the fashiona-
bles determined upon retrenchment and concluded to
forego the drives and suppers and serenades of

Perhaps by staying away for several years and thus

GerSa NoRrH.-Our merchants are leaving for the
North where they will purchase their winter stock
OF goods What pity It's that our own people will
year after year contribute to the building up of North
ern cities, when in return such mighty efforts are
making by Northern citizens to bring ruin and dcs-
olation upon our homes!
Why do not South Carolnians, at least, bestow
their patronage upon their own city, Charleston p
do they not lend their aid build up that city,
and make it the Queen city of the South, that we
may ever after be Independent: of the North 'Tis
said by some that our merchants cannot do as well"
in Charleston as in New YORK. If this be SO the
reason is apparent; it is because by neglect
we do not give her the power to complete with her
pampered rival. If Southern Merchants would pat.
ronze her. she would gladly prepare herself to sup
ply their demands, and offer inducements at least
equal to those Of New York. We would rejoice to
see our Southern merchants Withdrawing their sup
port from people who use their wealth thus acquir-
ed to the injury of their patrons and We would also
rejoice to see Charleston importing goods for the
supply of the Southern market, and growing mp in.
