HINTS To SHEEP NIFN.

In the "American Emigrant Company y's
Circular" we find the following hints sug-
gested to sheep men, which we looked up
on as valuable, snd therefore present them
to the readers of the Journal" -....r
j. Keep sheep dry under foot, with
litter. This is even more necessary than
roofing them. Never let them stand or
lie in mud or snow. -......-. ...
2. Begin graining with the greatest
care, and use the smallest quantity at first.
8. If an Eve looses her lamb, milk dai-
ly for few days, and mix little alum
with her salt ITO
4. Give lambs little 'tmill-feed" in
time of weaving.
8. Never frighten sheep if possible to
avoid it.
6. Separate all weak or thin or sick
from those that are strong, in the fall, and
give them special care.
z. If any sheep is hurt, catch it at
once and wash the wound, and if it is iy
time, apply spirits of turpentine daily, and
always wash with something healing. If
limb is broken, bind it with splinters,
tightly, loosening as the limb swells.
s. Keep number of good bells on the
sheep. #3t
0: Don't let sheep spoil wool with
chat or burs
10. Cut tag-locks in early spring.
II. For scours, give pulverized alum
in wheat bran-prevent by taking great
care in changing dry for green food.

The RIuIatto Convention.

A5 might have been expected, the Mulat-
/ to Convention have split on the negro sui.
iraGe question, for among men Of this class
each filled with his own individual theory,
great diversity Of opinion prevails.
We are not at all surprised that the mem
bers from the South should favor universal
suffrage, for ouly through the votes of the
negro do they ever expect to obtain or hold
office. They have made the black race the
victims Of their selfish and sordid views
They know the feeling of contempt which
they, themselves, and their course have ex-
cited in the minds OF all true and honora-
BILE men of the South and intent upon their
lust and thirst personals ACKNOWLEDGMENT,
they have declared the negro entitled to
suffrage in order that by this means they
may obtain the end in view.
We are pleased to see that many of the
delegates from the border States had some
little sense and delicacy left to them after
companionship with such men as Brown
low, Hamilton, Rev. Hope Balm and Parson
Sinclair, and withdrew from the Conven-
ton.
Although left almost wholly in the hands
Of the friends of negro suffrage after the
withdrawal Of the delegates from the Bor-
der States, the Convention took 10 steps
towards adopting the minority report favor
ing the granting of the elective franchise
to the blacks, and after some unimportant
proceedings, adjourned sine die.
Il the world were searched throughout,
no meaner nor degraded men, who have as
pired to q political career could be found,
than the majority Of those who COM
prised that body known as the Mulatto Con-
ventiOn.

Deaf, OF Mr.. II. q. f4nrtlE.

We regret to learn, by G telegram re-
ceived here by his family yesterday, that
H. B. Hardy, Esq, Attorney ar Law, died
at Jackson, Northampton county. on the 9Th
instant.
Mr. Hardy has resided in this city for
several months past, and had entered upon
the practice Of his profession in our midst.
He was gentleman Of 10 ordinary ability,
and occupied an enviable position among
the members of the bar
The cause of his death is not stated in
the telegram, nor the duration Of his ILL.,
ness.
He left here few weeks since, to attend
the Courts of Northampton county, but by
the will of Providence he will never return
The news Of his death is received with un
feigned sorrow by his friends in this place
who, since his residence among us, by hi
unmistakable worth and merit, had woI
their highest esteem.

our native Scuppernong and its varieties, I
do not understand what need there is Of
risking the expense, and trouble, and proba-
bility of failure, of attempting to introduce
any foreign grapes, which with us are, at
| the best, very delicate and uncertain crop
do not mean to apply this remark to the
Western portions of our State, where the
Lincoln, Catawba, EIsinburg, Delaware,
and other grapes may, as have been as
sured, be successfully cultivated. apply
them only to the Eastern parts of North
Carolina. Other grapes there may be, of
| the punching variety, which will succeed,
even here, in our low and sandy soils but
have practical experience with none but
the Scuppernong species that / can recon-
mend as entirely exempt from disease and
rot. Even with the most careful treatment,
the European, and I may add, also, the
native varieties of bunch grapes, are liable
to failure in our section !; but the Scupper-
nong, the whole species included, is subject
to no such accident as amounts to total
failure.
As to the quantity of fruit produced by
one vine, [ can scarcely state what may be
called fair average. [ have known large
vines to produce as much as thirty-hve
bushels; but, of course, in vineyard Gull
ture no such yield could be calculated upon,
inasmuch as the size of the vine would be
materially less than of one cultivated on an
arbor by itself. Most families consider one
vine of the Scuppernong and one of the
black or Flowers Grape, as sufficient to
furnish them with enough fruit of this
kind for all domestic uses. In this Southern
latitude, therefore, we can fully realize that
ancient and ScrptuTal idea Of prosperity
and happiness, IS to sit under the shade of
our own vine and fg-tree, and none shall
make us afraid" Having said thus much
OF our native Scuppernong and it's varie-
ties, it will be proper next to describe the
best manner OF cultivating it, the kind of
soil most cOngenial to it, and its treatment
in the vineyard-this superb variety of
grape being valuable, it is true, only in
Eastern North Carolina, as for this State,
but for that very reason valuable over a
larger region than that in which the
Champagne grape of France is cultivated
with SO much profit. It will, perhaps, not
be improper to add, although I am treating
only of Eastern North Carolina as a wine
growing region, that am fully aware that
much Of South Carolina, throughout all Of
its sandy, pine-timbered lands, and of
Virginia, probably up to the latitude of
Richmond, are nearly as well adapted to
the Scuppernong as the Estern portion of
cur State. I am informed this grape grows
in those sections, viz. of South Carolina
and Virginia, particularly around Norfolk,
without losing anything, either in size,
productiveness or flavor. So much merely
in passing, and by way of justice to our
Scuppernong. In my next, I shall point
out the proper soil, the treatment, and the
manures requisite to produce this superb
fruit in its highest perfection-and sub
scribe myself,
Your obedient servant,
A. j. BUTNER.

Major Gee.

The formal announcement of the aCqulttal
final. Gee, of the charges preferred against
him for cruelty to prisoners while IN COM
mand of the late Salisbury prison, has been
made. The Military Commission took oc-
casion in their findings to refer to the old
subject of cruelty to Federal prisoners,
and connecting Herewith strong censure
of the Confederate government. 1t seems
to us that truth and decency demand that
officers of the government should cease
giving character to statements that have
the tendency to do injustice to the people
of this section by such er parte assertionsand
accusations The Court-martial will at
tempt in vain to pervert history IN regard
to this matter. The people of the whole
civilized world know full well that the Fed
eral government was solely responsible for
the refusal to exchange prisoners during
the time these censures refer to, and no
better reason has ever been assigned than
a desire that the large number Of prisoners
in our hands should remain to eat of our
scanty supply of provisions, hoping thereby
to starve us into submission.
Nor can this Commission, nor the execu-
ton of the unfortunate Wirz by another, re-
flute the official figures that out of the 2OO,-
900 Confederate prisoners North, 26, 436
died, while of the 260, 900 Federal prisoners
South, only 22,576 died The horrors OF
Andersonville may be illustrated in North
ern Pictorials for political effect, and the
sufferings of Salisbury depicted by their
penny -a-iners for pay. the fact is neverthe-
less, that with all the supplies that large
surplus population, open ports and pleth-
ORIG treasury enabled them to provide, and
the terrible necessities under which we were
struggling, still one Confederate prisoner
died out of every eight in their hands,
while but ono Federal prisoner died
out Of every t,CeIre in OURS, according to
their own reports. NorSenates, nor Courts,
civil or military, nor Pulpits, nor Histo-
ries, can hide the disagreeable and terrible
truth. Wirz may expire upon the felon
gallows Gee may return home wasted IN
health and estate, and ex-President Davis
may languish, in accomplishing and heroic
imprisonment these outrages will only
pander to blood-thirsty appetites, but will
not deceive the world.
It is time that these things should be at
an end. The South has done her part to
secure the permanent reconciliation be-
tween the sections, at the cost of much feel
ing and some humiliation, and if CORES
ponding good faith is displayed upon the
part of the North, the wounds will yet be
healed and many of the scars removed, but
it cannot be done by officers of the Govern.
ment heaping reflections upon us, at the
cost of truth, or hiding the terrible faults
of their own people by censuring ours.

The Railroad Bridge.

We regret to learn that the prospects o.
constructing Railroad Bridge across the
river near this city are not so favorable as
we have been led to believe, and possibly
has been altogether defeated. As we are
not acquainted with the causes of this fail
ure fully, we refrain from making any com
ments thereon. Be the fault where it may,
and the reasons good or bad, we can tell
the Companies interested in the project,
that while delay in this matter is hurtful to
them, the failure to build the bridge Will be
ruinous to the railroads. The time has
now passed when passengers can be delayed
to cross unnecessary ferries, and the com
petition is too great and routes and mar
kets too abundant to pay heavy taxes for
ighterage and drayage. We hope 1t is not
too late to secure the advantages to be de-
rived by the building of tho bridge, and
measures should be taken at once to place
Il under construction. The breaks In the
connections at Richmond and Petersburg
are being rapidly mended, and in order to
secure the full benefit Of this, we must
unite the roads here. Both the State anG
City are largely interested in the railroads
concentrating at this point, and we are fully
persuaded that without the building OF the
proposed bridge, the stocks will never be
remunerative property. The public have
and feel deep interest in this matter

1ndixnit1es to the President.

The unconcealed disrespect, and the
many insults which the President has met
with in his progress through the State OF
Ohio, has the appearance of being premed'
itated, and evinces the despicable condi
ton into which Radicalism and mean par.
ty spirit can reduce people.
In his position of Chief Magistrate of the
government, the President by virtue of that
Office, is entitled to at least a show of re-
spect in his presence, if admiration for his
course is wanting, but carried away by
their hatred for him and his policy, the
Radicals have rendered his progress, which
has heretofore appeared like triumpha
march, extremely unpleasant. At Detroit
he was, again, the recipient of insulting al
lusions.
This is done because the Radicals see in
this man firm and immovable obstacle
between them and their base desires. He
has rendered their future sway, SO long I'M
disputed, somewhat doubtful and he
is more liberal, more conscientious anc
more just in his views, which is the prin
cipal cause Of their hatred, as the base cal

A Card.

The undersigned some time ago reln.-
pushed all hope of being able to resume
the publication of the Fayetteville ObSer-
yer. The mail facilities throughout the
South, and especially in our part of the
State, are SO greatly curtailed, and the test
oath presents so general an obstacle to the
acceptance of the office of Postmaster that
we could not hope for such a circulation rs
would justify the heavy expense of rebuild
ing and furnishing Printing Office. See
ing nothing that we can engage in at home
that promises even support, much less Il
repair OF our shattered fortunes, which were
sacrlhced IN the Southern cause, we have nc
alternative but to remove from the State.
and have concluded that the only field which
promises success is New York We have
consequently opened in that city a Whole
sale Book and Stationery House, in which
we hope to secure the business of our many
friends and acquaintance among the Mcr-
chants and Booksellers of the Southern
States, and also gradually to engage ii the
publication of Southern books We have
