being asked for little money TO pay washer
woman's bill, he lavlshed the large sum of forty
cents upon him. Then it was that the truth flashed
forth in the mind of Mr. Springer that Morehead wa
the worst enemy he had instead OF his best friend
With reference 10 the scarcity of articles OF which
we at the North have heard so much. Mr.. Springer
corroboass the principal facts, bat hesitates to g6
into details concerning Them for fear that the real
truth of the matter would not be received IN good
faith. The lack of the commOnest luxures Is beyond
all belief. A small tallOw candle, which costs one
cent in Philadelphia, cannot be had in Charlotte for
less than sixteen cents, aud from this one item the
efer must form his conclusions.

! ciFtnent among them; and one person who gave an
account OF Ii to newspaper down there said, 80,

ing, "Why, we can cut the tires off the wheels Of
their wagons, and make bowie knives enough to kill
them, two TO one; we'll cut their - hearts cut"
and similar expressions. II is the opinion of Mr.
yet in the South, which will manifest itself b soon
as cid reaches them frOA the North.
Yet, there is also turbulent and brutal class in
the South, who, having no knowledge Of affairs be-
yond what is told them by their leaders, are solely
guided by them, and submit readily to their wishes
This is dangerous element when left without proper
control. Many of them do not know the love Of
mother. When born they are often given to the
care Of negro woman who may have babe OF
her own at the same time; and thus, with her mis-
tress child upon one knee and her own upon the
other they first receive the lasting impressions Of
youth. When this great aud paramount fact Is con-
sdered the contrast between the people Of the North
and those Of the South will be satisfactorily demon
strated.
