HoPEFUL.-Writes ''P. W. A." the
New York correspondent of Gcor-
gia paper:
1t is hoped and believed that the
conservatives will make large gains
in the interest of the South at the
approaching Congressional elections,
in spite of Northern radicals and
Southern critics. The tide is now
setting strongly in that direction.
The mechanics and laboring classes,
who claim Mr.. johnson as one of
their own fraternity, no less than the
solid men of the country, are gather
ing around the President with a spirit
of determination that is full of en-
couragement. If the South will only
be patient and silent for season, all
will yet go well.
Andrew johnson is great power
in this land. There is no man in the
United States who possesses 1.-THE
of his popularity, even in the North.
The whole Democratic party, lnclud-
ing war Democrats as we'll as copper
heads, $50 called" with that large,
intelligent and wealthy wing of the
party which elected Mr.. Lincoln,
known as the moderate Republicans,
now stand at his back, and are doing
battle under his lead for our rights
In this State, and, indeed, through
out the North, the followers of Mr.
Seward are wheeling into line in the
most gratifying manner.

THE THREE PHILADELPHIA CoNvEN

THE THREE PHILADELPHIA CoNvEN-
TroNs. We copy the paragraph below
simply as a specimen of the off
hand manner of a leading New York
Journal" in disposing of matters
which it happens to disapplove:
1.-THE three Philadelphia Conven-
tions have ali been failures. The first
was conservative convention Of De
mocrats and johnson Republicans.
That has been entirely broken down
in New York by the bad faith of the
Democrats in adhering to their old
party lines and organizations. The
second and third were radical conven-
tons, sort of Siamese twin COM
pound of Southern ''loyalists" and
Northern fanatics. They have fallen
through by the dead weight of the
radicalism they carried. Too much
copper proved fatal to the first
convention; too much niggsr has
ruined the hybrid second and
third. Meanwhile, the country has
struck out for itself path between
the two extremes, and, regardless of
factions or conventions, is moving
for the constitutional amendment as
the only way of settling the whole
business

sphere. States as individual units
count according to their number, bnt
the people, outside of their own
States, are not counted at all.
We agree with the New York
World, from which We eondense the
above views, in most of its conclu-
sions. and, we think, answers the
queries of the London Times us well
as they can be answered.

The "LAsT SURRENDER. The
Asheville IN. c. Neaos says that the
last surrender of the war East of the
Mississippi was made by Col. James
r. Love, on the 7th of May, 1865.
The Ne,cs says:
It is fact which impartial history
will record, that Col. James r. Love,
with his little veteran band, fought
the last battle for the ''lost cause"
that was made on this side ''the great
father of waters" This battle took
place at Mill Creek, in Mcdowell
County, in this State, on the 18th
April, 1865, and was q success to the
Confederates-delaying Gen. Gillian,
who had cas- many thousands as Col.
Love had hundreds" and causing
the enemy to take another route to
Asheville, then the headquarters of
the military district, known as the
'sWestern District of North Carolina. :"
Subsequently to this, however, Col.
Love had skirmish with Col. w. G..
Bartlett commanding United States
forces in Haywood County, on the
9th of May, 1865, and negotiated
terms favorable not only to his own
command, but to the citizens of the
district, in the surrender on the day
following, at "Alman's Mill" which
terms were confirmed by Brig. Gen.
j. G.. Martin and Col. w. III. Thomas.
This was the last regular surrender

Atrrny Between Gamblers.

The Chicago Times says: GA shoot
ing affray occurred III front of the
Varieties Theatre, u few evenings
since, between two we'll known gam
hlers, named David Stanton and
James Leary. The former is per-
manent resident of Chicago, and the
latter, it is said, haiis from Memphis.
They had been engaged in Il friendly
''contest of skill, III the gambling
rooms located in the Varieties build
ing, and there dispute arose con-
cerning the wager. The precise ma
ture of the dispute could not be
ascertained at the time, but it is rep
resented to have been of very tri-
vial nature. From the gambling
room, Stanton and Leary proceeded
to the street, and seated themselves
on some barrels, in front of an adj
joining saloon.
Here they discussed their differ
mind which did not appear to threat
en- serious consequences. Finally,
Lealy took from his pocket Il re-
volver, quickly presented it to the
head of Stanton, and fired The
latter, rs soon as he saw the weapon,
attempted to evade the shot, and par
TALLY succeeded, by dropping his
head, and by some unaccountable
and inexplicablc process, placing
himself in such q position that the
ball struck just over the left eye,
glancing upwards, and only producing
q flesh wound: Stanton, supposing
himself to be mortally injured, rush
ed into a saloon near at hand, and
exclaimed I'm fixed"-words which,
when interpreted, conveyed the idea
that he was mortally wounded.
After his head had been examined
by physician and it was ascertain
ed that he was not, after all, in very
critical condition, he became imbued
with q spirit of retaliation, and in an
excited frame of mind sought for the
nan who attempted to take. his life.
Leary, as soon us he had committed
the bloody deed, walked leisurely
away, and was found by Stanton on
Washington street, opposite the Ope-
RI House. A scene here presented
iself which beggars description. The
wounded man, covered with blood,
and with the crimson fluid streaming
from his forehead, furiously assailed
his fellow gambler and wouid-be-as-
sassin. With one terrible blow, he
felled Leary to the pavement, and
then continued his blows with renew
ed fury, finally eliminating the fu-
rious assault by jumping into his
face with his heels, and mutilating
the body and face of his opponent
IN q shocking manner. Had not by
standers interfered: it is believed
that Leary would have been killed
on the spot, SO great was the rage and
so blind the fury of the maddened
man who was beating him. After
this second phase Of the atfray. Stan
ton was placed under arrest and taken
to the armory.

Shall we Encourage Home Innufao-
lures.


Everybody says aye to this; but
few agree as to the extent of so doing.
Each trade and profession urges that
this be done as to its own products,
and denounces the going to any
foreign or distant domestic point,
even when better or more cheaply
dcne there. Yet few, very few, if
any, make it a point to buy all the
things they eat or weal or use of home
production or manufacture
Some time since, we met an old
friend, foundryman, and asked him
how he was doing in business. His
reply was, that when he proposed to
build man an engine for 81, ,450,
the reply was / can get it in New York
for 81, 400. Rejecting on this, the
next time we saw our friend, we said
to him, "You must make that engine
for the man for 81, 400. The only
way we can build up home manufac-
lures is by competing with other
sources of supply, even under-selling
them if possible"
He acted afterward on our advice,
and made some contracts profitable to
himself and to the parties he served,
and now both he and his customers
arc satisfied with one another, the
one moderating his prices, and thus
getting employment, and the other
finding that the loss of time and the
various contingencies in ordering
things from the North, make it cheap
er and more convenient to get them
here.
Our Southern journals, in COM
mending certain magazine publish
ed South, have, with considerable
unanimity, deprecated the fact that
it was printed in New York. But
the State whence it halls has never
yet had that practice in book work,
nor is it supplied with the material
needed to give this magazine the neat
and tasteful appearance so much
priced. We might do this in New
Orleans, but we are out of the way.
Besides, the cost would be far greater,
even for indifferent work, III North
Carolina than in New York Must
the gifted and gallant editor and pub
Usher impoverish himself and imperil
his success, that Il few workmen may
earn extra wages for inferior work?
Besides, who of these grumblers
practices that he breaches? When do
you find them clothed in copperas-
dyed, or as our Northern war writers
called them, butter-nut colored
clothes, the work of Southern looms,
when they can buy broadcloths, cassi-
meres, or even satinets, OF Northern
make, at the same figure? When
those who complain that those in
other trades and professions do not
pay them higher prices, for perhaps
less durable, or ut least less comely
wares, do themselves avoid buying
and using things made out of their
section, then let them begin to throw
stones.
But we can manufacture as cheaply
as at the North, and we can learn TO
10 it as we'll; but we can never receive
the full value of encouragement until
we resolve to charge, at the least, no
more Those things, like cotton and
WOODEN goods, leather, wooden-ware,
even machinery, the materials for
which are to be found within our own
borders, we can manufacture and sell
cheaper than they, if We do not ask
more fer our labor.

General Sherman, in q recent let
ter, writes as follows:
''It is amusing to observe how
brave and firm men become when all
danger is past. l have noticed, on
fields of battle, brave men never in
suit the captured nor mutilate the
dead; but the towards and braggarts
always do. Now, when the rebellion
in our land is dead, many Fallstaffs
appear to brandish the evidence of
their valor, and seek to win applause
and appropriate honors for deeds that
never were done"
General Sherman and General
Grant, who fought side by side during
the war, and between whom there
was always the most perfect unanimity
of views, seem to still be very much
alike in the opinions they entertain
of Faistaffian radicalism.

In this Convention-whese members
style themselves the ''National Union
Party"-President Johnson receives most
important accession of strength. SO do
the Southern States; but TIE Union itself
receives it above all. We confess, however,
we are for the moment more concerned
with the chivalrous than the utilitarian
side of this question. Since .he Confede-
rate States have failed to realize tho asscr-
tlon Of Mr.. Gladstone that they had made
themselves Il nation, all who are alive to
the cldlms of Il heroic resistance, and q
patriotism which fought to the very defeat,
will rejoice when the Confederatcs, denied
their independence outside the Union,
shall at least be restored to liberty within
it. They have made infinite sacrifices.
They have given up everything that civil
lied men value III order to establish them
selves as q free nation. Their sufferings
have been such that ut the late Conven-
ton, and i'll the streets in Philadelphia, the
Southern delegates could be Known by the
deep furrows of care marked upon their
faces; But they have made even greater
sacrifice than all in the frankness i'll which
they have accepted their fate, and have
bowed to it, Such men are not to be tram
pied upon. And the Government or pco-
PIE who would prolong the bitterness of
their misfortune, would be marked either
by political decay or dishonor.

THE SOUTH.

From tho Public Ledger, Memphis Wednesday evening,
/ JANUARY 3ist
That portion of the country known as
"the South" embraces eight hundred and
fifty thousand square miles, and is as
large as Great Britain, France, Austria,
Prussia and Spain, with most product
i've soil and genial climate; with staple
productions which none Of these great
countries can grow; with three thousand
miles Of coast line, indented with bays
and crowded with islands, and its vast
centre watered by the Mississippi, into
whose bosom are poured thirtyssix thous-
and miles Of tributary streams.
The total agricultural productions Of
the United States for 1850 amounted to
Sl,164,OO0,OO0; of this sum the North
produced in round numbers, Sc, 400, 900,
and the South S5,6OO,OOO. The popu-
Iation of the North in 1860 was 18, 597-

II happened that, ut tho time Of the alleged
murder "A farmer was loading wood near the
house. and looking toward the house, he saw
Atwood fourishing the pistol and standing
near his wife A few moments later he heard n
shot fred and on turning around, saw Atwood
coming toward him, gestIculatinG wildly and

Henry c. Atwood, the husband Of the I'M
fortunate woman, is n young man only nine
teen years old, Of fine personal appearance,
and capable of rising, If his talents and morals
were rightly directed, TO almost any position
he might desire. He has been engaged in the
saloon business in this place, and is represented
as wild, dissolute young man, much given to
gallantries with other women, neglecting his
Young wife and spending much of his time
abroad. II was brought out upon the inquest
that he had several times expressed wish 10
BE- rid of his wife, saying that he " would give
one million dollars if she were dead
His wife was between sixteen and seventeen
wears of age, and had always borne good
character. She had been married but eight
months, and, what makes the murder appear
more heinous, Is the fact that she was daily
expected 10 be confned-the hand of the man
who should have protected her with the ten

The Admission OF Southern Representative

The Admission OF Southern Representatives.
WAsHISGToy, December Silt Is rumored
that President Johnso" at the meeting OF
Congress, will send In special message In re-
gard to the admission OF members OF Congress
from the Southern States The course OF
Henry J Raymond, II appears, has somewhat
alarmed the ultra radicals. 1t is understood
that Mr.. Raymond has publicly expressed
himself as holding that, since the rebellion
has ended and slavery is abolished, the North
and South should have equal representative
powers In Congress. He argues that the
North, under the Constitution, has no right to
legislate for the South unless the South is
represented in Congress. He believed that
the majority Of the Southern members have
been legitilnately elected, and should be adj
mitted to seats. Mr.. Raymond, despite the
Vaccinations Of the ultra-Stevens party,
when Congress gets, to work, will be IN earnest
supporter of President Johnson and the leader
of the House.
