dirt, and venereal diseases would devour them of
the face of the earth in few years With peace
established they would return in ninety-fve cases
out of the hundred, to their old plantations and
work for their old masters. Freedom was to them
an orgie, of which such as had enjoyed it were
rapidly sickening While health lasted and adle
they might get along well enough. But when sick.
starving, and illtreated, their first wish was
longing to be back with their old masters and re-
domiciled on their old plantations. Of this, even
during the war and penalty of returning to slave,
~, he had seen many instances-enough to con-
vince him that, with freedom assured, or rather
its evils to them in their unprePared state better
understood-the great majority of the blacks
would flock back eagerly.
Mr. Davis said he had heard my little daughter
had undertaken to be his housekeeper, and sent
over his meals He knew the kind hand of wo-
man was always tenderest in the greatest grief
It only needed they should see misery to wish and
labor for itsrelief, unless
repealed. He begged me to carry the assurance
of his gratitude, and hoped-if he might never
see her himself-that his children would some day
have an opportunity to thank the young lady who
had been so kind to their father.

The Club numbers only about twelve or fifteen
members gentlemen of standing and character
who are axious to adopt and to see adopted, the
best plans of farming, and to conform In their
operations to the order of things, as to LABOR
saving instruments, and improvements necessi'a
ted by the result of the war.
Spring Garden and Rocky Point, where Tue
members reside, are lands celebrated Tor tne1f
great fertility, and well adapted to the culture
| OF corn oats potatoes, pea nuts, COW peas root
crops generally, and cotton and the members %
the Club are therefore, stimulated In their lauoa
BILE efforts by the fine prospects presented OF max
ing farming as profitable it can be made IN any
mart of North Carolina. Add to the fine pas
tnraee of that section, and the excellent opportu-
mites for raising stock of all kinds, and then con-
slider what a good market Wilmington always pre-
SCENTS for the sale of whatever surplus the farmer
has. and the inducements held out for farming IN
that rich section of our county, only about Twelve
To fourteen miles from our city, are unsurpassed
The means of access to market could not be bet
ter than are furnished by the railroad and the sew
eral nayioabe streams that run to the very barns
of the farmers. %
At this meeting several subjects of practical
character in connection with farming were dis
cussed, such as the best mode Of raising tnrnips
the question of subsoil blowing, the manner OF
preparing land for planting corn, &c. Mr.. Joel
Hines, admitted to be one of the very best, as he
is one of the most successful farmers in the East
ern part OF our State, entertained the Club, &C
cording to previous request with some valuable
views as to the best mode of raising corn. He
thinks, as did others, that success depends more
upon preparing the land by early blowing, than is
generally admitted Subjects for discussion at the
next meeting were chosen.
The next meeting will be held at the residence
of the President, Col. Will. S. Larkins, on Frl-
day, the Goth of July next Colonel e. d. Hall has
been invited to address the Club. We hope to see
other similar Clubs established, as well County
Agricultural Societies.
In this connection it may be stated that a COM
mttee i'm behalf of this Club and the public good,
will wait upon the Wilmington and Weldon Rail
road to urge the Importance of an early erection
of warehouse and ticket office at the Rocky Point
depot. This subject has for long time been
urged in vain upon the railroad authorities. to the
detriment of the public convenience, especially to
the injury of the farmers and the erection of such
buildings would be every way beneficial to the in
terests of the railroad Let the railroad investi-
gate properly this matter, and the truth OF these
statements will be more palpable.

The Next Legislature.
MEssRs. EDITORS Your recent article on the
subject of representatives from New Hanover to
the next Legislature has not attracted that atten-
ton it deserves. There seems to be strange in
difference in this county to the subject. Candi-
dates already out in many counties for the
Legislature, but in New Hanover no interest
whatever Is manifested important though this
matter is. IF the Convention has postponed, or
shall postpone our State elections from August to
later month, of course there will be more time
but rs things exist, something ought to be done
to get out @ good ticket-men of ability, iudg-
lnent, good habits, devotion to duty, and of
good record Let those men be rewarded
and honored VINO did their duty in the late strug-
gle-who were not alone men, but fighting
this feature of the subject, and the people of New
Hanover while loyal to the only remaining gov
eminent now on hand, will never cease to bestow
their choicest favors, their greatest gratitude,
their best honors and prayers, when opportunity
offers, upon those brave, heroic, living men who
periled their ves their fortunes and their sacred
honor" in behalf of Southern independence. -
This principle will be cherished, and hallowed,
and held most sacred in all coming time.
There is young gentleman of talent and char
acter in Upper Black River District who would
make good representative for New Hanover in
the next Legislature He is recommended to the
people for the position. Of firm habits, and
correct principles he is educated, and has that
industry and business turn of mind that would
make him an efficient representative. It is not
known that he would consent to run, but he would
well in the country, if he consents, and his
name is now recommended to the favorable con-
sideration Of the people of the county This gen.
tleman is Solomon j. Faison. His character and
qualifications challenge criticism the more SO be-
his modesty and retiring disposition conceal
merits and worth thatshould be known, and would
be known if d member of the Legislature. This
communication emanates from many

The University of the South.

It will be remembered that the pet project of
the late Bishop Polk was the establishment of a
great Southern University, under the patronage
and in the interests of the Protestant Episcopal
Church. The institution was designed to be what
Oxford is to the Anglican Church, and the Sor-
bone to the French. Dr. Quintard, Bishop of
Tennessee, thus describes recent visit he made
to its site on Seweu Mountain

| an esteemed friend has placed under obliga-
tons for copy of the Gettysburg Compiler, con
tanning list of all the Confederate dead whose
graves still have legible marks from which we yes
| terday extracted the names of those from our
State. Our friend, who fell most severely wound
ed just under the Federal batteries in the charge
of July Sd, 1868, upon the heights of Gettysburg,
from which he suffered long and tedious confne-
ment in Northern hospitals and in the prison on
Johnston Island, has just returned from that mem
orable field, having vainy sought the body OF a
fellow officer who instantly killed in the same
charge. He informs us that great imposition is
being practiced upon the affections of Southern
people. One woald suppose that the bodies of the
gallant dead were too sacred to be the objects of
fraudulent traffic. but informed that there
exists hyenas who palm off bodies selected and
marked to ill orders received or expected. This
imposition is not practised upon Southern people
alone, but the sympathy and affection of the North
also pays liberal contribution to these
Since the people of both sections have deter
mined to show every mark of respect to their dead
around every battle field, some noble men
without reward, have with labor and expense, done
much to rescue the graves of the fallen heroes
from destruction and their names from oblivion.
cations to DR.. J. w. G. O'Neal, of Gettysburg,
who labored until the close of the war in faith
full and partially successful effort to protect the
graves of the Confederate dead, not only without
thanks, but at the expense of denunciatons and
social ostracism. Our friend represents his efforts
untiring in finding out, remarking and remod-
cling the graves of our dead, and as ready now to
assist those who desire to seek the bodies of lost
relatives and friends. Persons who desire to make
inquiries about those who fell at Gettysburg, will
learn all that is positively known concerning them
by addressing DR.. O'Neal, and will be secure from
imposture.
In reference to his efforts to secure from de-
structon the graves of the Confederate dead during
the war, we take the liberty of making an extract
from a letter of DR.. O'Neil to friend, which we
find in the Richmond Enquirer. He says: GO Mine
has been O labor of love- not interest T have Of
ten wandered over the battle ground, planting the
sprig of cassia here and there and had the finger
of scorn pointed at me because WAS suspected of
having Confederate sympathies. But this was in
days of excitement that has now, thank God, pass
ed away. The tear of sympathy is now often
dropped by persons of intense Union sentiments.
Such conduct as this shows not only NOR
al courage that will make him respected and hon.
ored at home, but speaks of goodness of heart
that will link his name with the prayers of many
of our people, the remains of whose friends he has
and he deserves the thanks of an honor
able but unfortunate people whose heroic dead he
has respected.
