AN INTELLIGENT NEGRo's OPINIoN.-A
correspondent of the Philadelphia Press. from
jackson, Tenn, describes contraband guide:
Alexis idea of the cause of the war. its
probable results, the best mode of action for
the negroes and the real value of the present
change in their situation, and in fact of every
thing relating to the war; were remarkably
shrewd and mature. Aleck does not look
like negro. He is not darker than many
white men, and his features have but little of
the negro cast. Said he, Il want to see this
country come doUn. You can't bring them
down, Mr.. -, without you ruin them.-
Pride built them up, and nothing but poverty
will bring them down. You may take away
everything that they have but their darkes.
and they stand it very well: but as soon as YOU
take nigger they begin to weep and wall.
and gnash their teeth. You take the ground
right out from under them. Ii you take cot
ton they can plant more. If you take horses
and mules they can get more. So with corn,
and all kinds of produce. But you take a
niger, and you cut off their supply. The
nigger is the producing machine He turns
ost everything. II you take him away it is
like taking the principal; and if you only
take cotton, it is like taking only the interest;
more Will come next year. Then their pride
is in il, too. They hate to lose a slave: II
makes them. mad. They tell us all sorts of
foolish stories about the Yankees. But | tell
the niger folks about me they amt true
Why, the Yankees are the smartest people in
:, ''' 49, - sf.fr'o
all our tools, and clothes, and everything
"Do you think you would be any better Off"
asked, "if the Yankees should conquer and
occupy this country?" "Well, don't know,
said he: 1--WE can't be any worse Off | tell
all the colored people about here if they have
got good homes they had better stay where
they are till the thing is settled. They can't
be any worse off, and if they run off they
have no homes, and perhaps can't get work;
and If they go North they don't understand
the country, and it is too cold.

THE Two VoICEs.-Fernando Wood, Dem

THE Two VoIcEs.-Fernando Wood, Dem
ocratic candidate for Congress, recently said
in an elctioneering speech:
"He believed the South is still devoted 10
the Union, and that she will come back to the
Union If we treat her kindly and ertend to her
the rule Of Democratic administration If
he should be elected, he would endeavor to
stamp such policy upon the actions of the
Administration. The election of Seymour
would make the Administration tremble. This
war must be settled by concessions on both
SIDES There must be conciliation. There
mus. be yieldidg by both sections of the coun-
try we cannot do this by generals in the
held, but by our representatives in Congress.
Non-combatants must settle this unfortunate
war. We must elect men of the Democratic
party II we expect to have this bloodshed ter
minated. The Democracy alone can do it."
On the other hand, hear what Col. Hamilton,
fresh from the rebel rule in Texas, and pro-
foundly conversant with all the secret springs
of the rebellion, says:
"There were those in our midst who pro-
posed to overcome the rebellion by extending
the hand of friendship to the disloyal people
of the South-to bear down upon them in gal
liant array, with the sword held back in the
right hand, and the olive-branch foremost in
the left Why, the people of the South had
aS"ii anu again passed RESOLUTIONS tllat they
would never treat with the Government of the
United States for peace upon any terms but
independence, not only for the states engaged
in the rebellion, but as to those still true and
loyal, where the institution of slavery existed.
And they had manifested by their action that
they were in serious, sober, desperate earnest
ness to make good their declaration These
gentlemen who talked about conquering with
the oiive-branch,. he would ask who it. .was
fhaN- cad fl.n., 1&.I
South? Did they want to bring the olive
branch to the down-trodden millions who are
beseeching the Throne of grace for help and
relief from the tyranny under which they are
groaning? Be not deceived. These ranted
to see us come drmed cap-a-pie, Nth socords
ana odyonets. They wanted to see us come
with power to strike the manacles from their
limbs, and they would rush to meet us more
than half way, and embrace us with tears and
joy"

NB- A Botanical Medalist and Prizeman of
Kings College, London" writes to the Times
AT this juncture number of ingenious and
well-intentioned inventors step in and declare
that we have in our own country stores of f.
bres which may be transformed into a mater
ial OF the same nature as Gotten. / have OBJ
tanned samples of most of the fbres proposed
as substitutes, and | have submitted them TO
careful examination under high powers of the
microscope. | find them all to be varieties of
woody fibre, more or less split up and divided,
varying in length and thickness of the fbriu9.
The tibres of all the specimens have seen are
nevertheless uniform in the following particu-
lars They are all solid, inelastic Tor brittlel.
with joints and rough edges, showing where
the bundles of .tfbrillG have been torn apart.
Having some practical acquaintance with cot
ton-spinnng and weaving assert that the
above qualities render woody fibre untitled TO
be used as substitute for cotton unless a very
considerable modification be made in our cot
ton machinery. The ibres which have been
exhibited may probably be useful as substitutes
for linen if they can be largely produced at a
cheap rate; but the woody fibre from which
all the proposed substitutes are drawn) can
never be used under the same condition as cot
ton, which consists of vegetable hairs, hollow.
elastic, ribbon-shaped, and spiral, with smooth
edges and surfaces. If we want perfect SUBJ
stitute for cotton we must not look for it in a
woody fibre,"
Mr., Harden, the gentleman who commits
stoned his lawyers, Messrs. Philips and Son, to
announce to the world, through the medium
OF an influential London paper, the fact that
he had discovered a substitute, has been in
Manchester, and had an interview with the
Chamher OF Commerce in that city; but the
result is less encouraging than could be wished.
The material which he proposes is one largely
USED by upholsterers for bed and sofa stuffng,
called alva, or grass-wrack, better known to
botanists as the Zostera Marina. which
abounds on the shores of rivers,-a species
of sea-weed much used in Sweden as a ma
nure, and which pigs and horses are said to
eat. The stems are branched, two or three
feet long, and Mr.. Harden contends that the
fibre might readily be rendered available for
cotton spinning purposes,-.n opinion, howev-
er, which has yet to be substantiated.
