bling and numbering with vigor Christmas approaches
The operations mostly confined tho Eastern half
OF the State and their compliments almost univer
sally paid to negroes and Yankees thereby indicating
tho animus Of the animal The devils who compose the
rank and die Of these regulaors low born brutes
but they led by the and relatives Of former
bobs and nasmuch the better classes do not
them to arrested and hung therefore charge that
these upper classes sympahlzs with them. II does no
good for them 10 they do not long they remain
passive, while their and relatives encouraging
and leading on the mscreanis to their work Of dia-
bolism.
Recently they set Are % the gin house Of M Col.
grove, Northerner who had purchased and cult
waiting plantation in Jones county Besides the gin
house they destroyed his cotton pross and quite large
amount OF cotton that he had gathered, pretty much
running the mans prospects, Aud it was intended that
1t should ruin him. They dent want the damned Yam
kces here. And yet they talk about encouraging emf.
grafton II gets the encouragement the wolf gives the
lamb. A few days ago German family smigrated to
Newbern and bat for some Germans and Yankees who

CURE further from me al tbs time ALEX. JUSTICE
We are having here the loveies kind Of weather the
| days being warm and sunny AZ In June II osnno,
continue thus much longer however business IS dull
90 much that the merchants are all having the dumps
The cotton crop very much lighter than anci.
patcd that takes all the money that comes from tina,
TO pay up debts for rast expenses and nothing BE-
Afforded for uxuries No scarcely in all Tho state
has raised moro than ouenaf they anticipated and
what they had very good reason 70 anticipate even A.
late tho latter part Of ADJUST Then tho rust struck
70, and very short crop tho result Many will not
more tnan one-.hird OF what reasonably Anti
| pated, which will not pay expenses
With all these drawbacks the South Ia truly frpora
bio condition. She is hardly any better % than
whom thc war closed This curse u God s"cms 70 be
smiilng her and every day; and, what u the
worst ~ ~ her people viii not 500 and acknowedge ~
ana act IN spirit becoming erch eond ton OF things
Instead Of owning up that they have done wrong and
made fools Of themselves, and with cheerful fsce
extending the hand Of fellowship and plsfsng smty and
corporation In all that pertains 10 the glory and welfare
81 the country hereafter would naturally infer ~
would be their true policy 10 do 20 say nothing about
the prom tlngs magrnniiiy and cbisary, shey
scowng about rnding their teeth cursns the Yankees
and The I'D niggersh depionns the lost cause" and
constantly mixing up social military and political embsrs
that ought 70 have been permitted 70 do oat long ago
The Presfenis message even does not seem 70 resve
tnelr gloomy snfts And yet they are wondering all
the time why elgrsnt do notpour IN here; why bust.
ness does not revive vhy the niger viii NOT 20 out
into the country and work for them Why Yankees viii
complain " they rob them; why The 'nisrers' won
consent 70 be murdered without grumbling, Why the
Southern states not admitted and various other lido
syncracIes ~ this ariles,, innocent and chvslrous
