From letter, written to the Tarboro
SOutherner of the Both ult., dated at "Rebel
Retreat" we make the following extract:
But to make long. matter short Ply
mouth Of old no longer exists, but charred
ruins and few scattering houses mark
where once she stood, and when the eyes of
her children rest upon these dark and gloomy
remains of their once bright and JOYOUS
homes tho they endeavor to suppress it, a
prayer will go up to that God, who has ever
been true to those that proved true to them
selves, to send down everlasting punishment
upon her destxoyers. AS one of her children,
l can say. with truthfulness, that hope the
day will come before die. when every city,
town and village in New England will pre-
sent the same appearance, that Plymouth
now does. Y. HATER."
Itisnot necessary to make any extended
comments. A sentiment so atrocious as that
conveyed in the closing sentence, carries its
condemnation with it. A spirit of dark and
bloody revenge, though embodied in the form
of prayer, will never bring down "ererlas-
ting punishment" upon the head of an
enemy. The punishment will fall elsewhere.
1t is time such expressions were dismissed
from the public prints. They cannot be de-
Tended or justified in any manner If the
public men in Edgecombe discountenanced
things of this kind, we would see nothing of
1T in the Tarboro' press.

CONCERNING WIDOWS, WHO HAVE QUALIFIED
AS ExECUTRIX TO THE LAST WILL AND
TESTAMENT OF THEIR DECEASED HUs-
BANDS.
Sec. 1. Be 1t ordained By the Delegates of
the people Of North Carolina. in Conoentiop
assem5led and it is hereby ordained By the au-
hority Of the same, That the widow of any
tfstator whose last will and testament has
been admitted to probate in this State. since
the first day of January, one thousand eight
hundred and sixty-two, and before the first
day of May, one thousand eight hundred and
,sixty-fve, notwithstanding such widow may
have qualified to such last will and testa-
ment as Executrix, be. and she is hereby al
lowed to enter her dissent to the same. ac-
cording to the same forms as are now proyi-
ded bylaw for dissent of widows.
Sec. 2. Be it further ordained, That in all

The superiority and availability Of white
labor over that of the freedmen is apparent
to every observer Good and clean crops are
found on every plantation cultivated by
white labor in this county, while in but few
instances can we say as much for black la
borer. The German settlements everywhere
present beautiful fields of thrifty growing
crops, clear of weeds and grass. despite the
long and continued wet season. In this the
Germans are not alone The Americans who
have been denounced by the Northern fac
ton as a dependent thriftless populace-
preferring want and degradation to labor
seeking to obtain their daily bread from the
sweat of another's brow has been fairly refu-
ted and the often repeated assertion proved
false to the letter. The dignity of labor is
being fully manifested in Texas. The young
the middle aged and the old of both sexes
of the white race are seemingly vieing with
each other, although unaccgstomed as they
are and have been to labor, IN presenting a
respectable progress in which they have moi
been found wanting. Breaham Lnduirer.

She'll Fish and their History.

OYSTERS are now the favorite food of the
whole human race, savage or civilized, if
they can be procured. They are not at this
season fit for food. 1t is their spawning
time, and they become faccid and tasteless.
Each oyster is ascertained to be perfect
animal, both sexes in one, and in itself capa-
pie of producing what is called "spat," that
Is the germ Of the young oyster, and at least
100000 spat are thrown out by every full
grown fish of two to four years of age. AT
ter four years, the shell thickens, and the
cartilage known as the heart hardens, and
the fish contracts, becoming less palatable
and nutritious for food until it dies, to make
a bed Tor its own descendants to grow on.

A SUGGEsrIoN.-One of our most benevo-
lent and patriotic citizens suggests the ap-
pointnent of committee for the collection
of contributions to erect a monument to the
memory of the gallant spirits of this city,
who fell during the late revolution, nobly
struggling for Southern independence VII

Would it not be better to first devote
whatever funds we can now raise towards
relieving the distresses Of the widows. and
other destitute persons around US. and edu-
eating the orphan children of our noble SOL
diers9 After that is done, then let US erect
monuments and cemeteries for the gallant
dead If both objects can be accomplished
at present, let it be done; but first let US re-
lieye the wants of the poor women and
children and disabled soldiers in our midst.
In making this-suggestion, We do not mean
the slightest censure for those who are col

we think they deserve praise for their noble
and patriotic efforts; but probably, on refec-
ton, they will conclude with rs, thatit would
be best to first supply the pressing wants OF

Inc freSlQenC ordered Gne TroNisiOidt
Governor to reorganize the government of
the State of North Carolina. and established
it upon loyal basis. 1t was done, SO far as
the Provisional Governor was able to ac-
complish it, for which the President tender
ed his public thanks. But the whole OF the
work of the Provisional Governor, which the
President so heartily endorsed, is being
rapidly undone by Gov. Worth, and men,
who were ousted for disloyalty are being re-
stored to their former position to the injury
and the detriment of the character of the
State. Last week Mr.. Thomas was decapi-
tated as President of the Atlantic and N. c.
railroad; this week the efficient President of
the Raleigh and CASTOR railroad, Mr.. Las
sitter, shared a similar fate Others will fol-
low in due course of time.
By the appointment of State Directors
hostile to these gentlemen, Gov. Worth &C
complished his purpose. But why did he
see fit to restore Messrs. Whitford and HaW-
kins and oust Messrs Thomas and Lassiter
Because the former voted for him, and the
latter against him. Such line of policy
in public affairs, so selfish and illiberal, has
never before been adopted in this State.
Messrs. Whitford and Hawkins may make
good officers, but they cannot excel Messrs.
Thomas and Lassiter. No fault has been
found with the latter gentlemen, and Gov.
Worth, himself, must commend their energy
and industry. although the victims of his
personal revenge. Indeed, we challenge
comparison. There have never been better
railroad officers in the State of North Caro-
lima than Messrs Thomas and Lassiter.
What motive of public policy then die
tated the removal of these gentlemen Are
they asloyalas Messrs. Whitford and Haw-
kins ever were or ever will bel Have they
not labored incessantly for the public good ?
And what reason or apology can be rendered
by Gov Worth to the people, for this de-
parture from the liberal policy of his pre-
decessors, in finging out of office efficient and
oluSIWoltuy puOiiS oOiNo hiSASiy "SS"AsN
they voted against him The public will
not suffer such unwarranted and unprece-
dented persecution to be visited upon good
and true men.
Did President johnson order the removal
ofMessrs. Thomas and Lassiter2 No. Did he
not commend their appointment and endorse
theremoval of Messrs Whitford and Haw
kins last year? What change has come over
the spirit of our dream Are secessionists,
who were ordered out of Office, because
their presence prevented restoration, now
deemed essential instruments for the proper
completion of the work of restoration 3
1t seems that the Governor thinks so. Ver'
lily, he has gone over to the secession camp,
horse, foot and dragons! He has sold
himself for a price-the Governorship.-
And all who have opposed him, or oppose
him now, are to be politically guillotined.
Do the people endorse such an illiberal and
selfish policy2

bill to repeal the act retroceeding the county
of Alexandria to Virginia, was discussed
and laid over. The same disposition was
made of the bill to pay the loyal people in
the South for supplies furnished. The SEN
ate refused to transfer to the Secretary of
War, supervising and other powers over the
acts of the commissioner of Indian affairs,
now exercised by the Secretary of the interior
by vote of 81 to 12
q The conference report on the army bill
was agreed to in the Senate.
Nothing of moment was done in the
House with the exceptions to the tariff bill.

CHILD POISONED By YSwALLowINa PHAR-
oAH SERPENT EGGS ".-en Thursday wo-
man named Kearney, came near to putting
an end to the existence Of her child, boy
eleven years of age, by administering to him
three Pharoah serpent eggs y for worms,
with which the child was afflicted. Mrs.
Kearney, it appears. on the day mentioned,
was engaged in cleaning house for lady
in Centre Park. In rummaging the house
she discovered a box of the eggs and reading
"serpents on the cover, she at once conclu-
ded that they were pills-medicine for worms
she pocketed three of them. These she
gave to the child, who soon commenced vom-
iting, throwing up blood, and was made
very sick. The alarmed mother ran to the
house where she had been working. and asked
ifthere was poison in those spills" She was
told they contained deadly poison.and with
out another word she ran for DR.. Shipman,
who repaired to her house, and promptly ad-
ministering antidotes, it is believed has saved
the child's life. Itwas very low last evening.
1t will be great wonder if the child lives.
Mrs Kearney says she intended to tell the la
dy for whom she worked that she had taken
three pills from box in her bureau, but did
not think to do so.-Rochester Union.
