very handsome, and will doubtless be treas

fine display Of racing stock at the spring

pleasure of recording the ensuing spring

BAD STATE OF AFFAIRS.-In consequence
of the Wholesale suing that has been resorted
to in South Carolina, we learn that affairs
are In a deploEable condition in that State
A great deal of property has been sold by
the Sheriffs for almost nothing, and families
who were heretofore in good condition, are:
in consequence left without home or the
means of making living. We are told that
good tracts of land have been sold at less
thar 80 cents an acre, and good mules as
low as SIG. Many of the people have not
money enough to pay the taxes on their
property, and consequently it is offered for
sale by the tax collectors, and in numerous
instances sacrificed Of course, where there
is so much suing, bad feeling exists between
man and man, and in some instances serious
conflicts have barely been prevented.
Now, this is all wrong. Our South Caro-
lima neighbors, of all people, should be the
most patient and forbearing towards each
other in these times of trouble and disap-
pointment and gloom. They started the
ball that has crushed the hopes OF so many
thousands of people; and now, that distress
prevails In consequence of the failure Of the
Southern cause, they ought to be the last
people on earth to add to that distress by
uncharitableness and illiberality towards
each other.
We are not disposed to chide our South
Carolina neighbors for their past political
conduct, but we will say to them that it is
shame to be suing and distressing each
other when they know very well that the
money is not among the people to meet their
liabilities. Where man has money he
ought to be made to pay his debts, but there
are few people less destitute at this time than
South Carolinians generally.-CA Charlotte Dem

ors and captains of hundreds and thousands,
by the blessing of God and the wisdom OF
Congress.
The Unionists now occupy an advanced
position. One of them said the other day
that "he would stand by the Congress OF the
United States if it slew him !" The words
found an echo in the breast OF every man
present. Sea-
Besides these things, the speech OF MIR.
Revcrdy johnson on the late veto message
has produced profound sensation among
those of the disloyalists who are large land
owners. Confscation troubles them. They
are growing meeker, but the change Is scarce
" perceptible vet. Further opposition on
their part will certainly provoke punishment
of the most stringent character, at the hands
of the Union Convention in this State, to be
assembled under the military act. The
white loyaists and the black loyalists can
find ample justification in the history OF the
past, and their own condition in the present,
to protect them in the eyes of the world,
should they determine to break up the vast
landed estates of the Southern rebel leaders
and aristocrats. Especially when we behold
the condition of the mass of our industrious
black population, the memorable words OF
Mr. Benton, of Missouri, uttered in the Uni
ted States Senate years ago, rush with re-
doubled force upon the mind. He said:
"Tenantry is unfavorable to freedom. 1t
lays the foundation for separate orders In So
ciety, annihilates the love of country, and
weakens the spirit of independence. The
farming tenant has, in fact no country, no
hearth, no domestic altar, no household god.
The freehslder, on thecontrary, is the natural
supporter of free government; and it
should be the policy of republics to multi
ply their freeholders, as it is the policy of
monarchies to multiply tenants. We are
republic, and we wish to continue so. Then
multiply the class of freeholders; pass the
public lands cheaply and easily into the
hands of the people; sell, for reasonable
price, to those who are able to pay; and
give, without price, to those who are not"
Such sentiments may ere long ring through
the pine forests of North Carolina. The loyal
people are ripe for it.
Very truly yours, NEUSE.

Weakened Yankees.

Under the above name, the Galveston Bull
letin administers a we'll deserved rebuke to
specimen of a class which has disgraced it
self and greatly INSTRUCTED the progress of
liberty and free thought. The object of the
Bulletin's criticism was an agent of Ken
lucky carriage builders firm, who, on visit
ing Galveston, had his circulars struck off at
the Bulletin office, but requested that its i'm
print should not be put to them, as it would
raise prejudice against him for dealing with
journal friendly to the Union cause The
Bulletin adds:
Men in the North ask the Union men of
the South to be plain and outspoken-to
wear their faith on their sleeves for Confed
crates to pick at. 1t is right. Every man
ought to have manhood enough to respect
fully avow his principles. But how differ
ent is the conduct of some Northern men
when they land on our wharves and fairly
embark in the business of making money
The longest Grape streamers, on the recent
johnson obsequies, were worn by men who
had not yet parted with the aroma of Weth-
ersfield onions, and whose accent betrayed
the nativity of Connecticut These men are
fatterers and hypoerites they insult US by
playing on our assumed weakness They
lack the manhood that makes character re-
spectacle. They are despised alike by all
manly men among Confederates and Fede-
rails.

The DISTINGUISHED.

At the suggestion of many of our readers
we republish the following showing what
persons are affected by the provisions of the
Constitutional Amendment and the Sherman
bill in regard to exclusion from the ballot
box. the following persons are excluded:
1st. All persons who before the war, were
members of Congress, or officers of the Uni
ted States, and afterwards engaged in the
rebellion.
3D. All persons who, prior to the war,
were executive, legislative or judicial Off
GERS of the State, and took the like oath,
and engaged in the rebellion.
This embraces Governors, members of the
Legislature, and judicial officers from
Judge of the Supreme Court down to JUS
tice of the Peace, who. at any time, held the
Office and took the oath and afterwards en-
gagged in the rebellion.
Who, then, are not excluded? 1st No
one Is excluded because he held an office I'M
der tie Confederate States from President
down, it he does not fall within one of the
excluded classes above specified. The sim
pie fact that he was a Confederate Senator
or a Confederate General, or that he took ali
to support the Constitution of the Confed
crate States, does not exclude him.
2. No State or county officer is excluded
on account of hi. having held the office and
taken the oath and engaged in the rebellion,
if he were not an executive, Legislative or ju-
dicial officer. Therefore, neither a lawyer,
sheriff, clerk, tax collector, receiver, county
treasurer, coroner. surveyor, constable or
road commissioner is excluded
8. AS no man under twenty-one years of
age, when the war began, held any such Of
flee as disqualified, and none of them took
the oath to support the Constitution of the
United States during the war, and as the
war commenced nearly six years ago, no man
under twenty-seven years of age can be ex-
cluded.
4th. Militia officers are not excluded.
9Th. The whole mass of our people who
fall within none of the excluded classes
above mentioned are free from the disquaIi-
fication, and may vote and hold any office in
the States without regard to the part they
took in the war.

Rebel MaIignity.

The Union Register of Greensborough, a
loyal and valuable newspaper, complains that
handbills, containing a prospectus of the
paper, are not allowed to remain posted up
on the streets of that place Greensborough
was at one time a loyal town. But it was
corrupted in its politics by Confederate and
State patronage during the rebellion, and
loyalty in Greensborough is now at low
ebb. But this State of things can not con-
tinue The loyal white and colored vote
will soon purify the atmosphere in that
quarter, and it may be that certain persons
who are fourishing on fortunes piled up on
the blood and bones of our people during
the rebellion, will have to disgorge.
The Register says:
at is surprising what conteptible acts
some men, who claim to be the genuine chiv-
airy, can commit. There is no reason why
tins advertisement should not be allowed to
remain in public places as well as others,
except the fact that some, who have hitherto
been the leaders, or rather mais-leaders, of
public opinion, are not entirely pleased with
the sentiments of the Register. Some of the
principal citizens of this place have been
seen engaged in the despicablc business OF
tearing down these business notices, while
others stood by approving the act. There
is something entirely below even contempt in
these petty acts of malevolence, but we shall
dignity some of the perpetrators, with q
public notice of an unmistakable character
if the act is repeated, and if this will not do
we will see if there is not some power which
will put to stop to it. A man who will
countenance such operations is not whit
above robbing hen-roosts, or stealing greer
| water melons from blind freed-woman."

Macmillan in Mexico.

The French have left Mexico, the Liberals
have occupied the country as fast as they re-
| tired, and still Macmillan remains behind
He IS said to have moved out of the Capital
IN the uniform OF Mexican general, at the
head Of few thousand troops, to reinforce
Miramon, who had sustained a slight reverse.
Whatever may be the issue of these ignoble
conflicts in the interior, it would appear that
Macmillan is cut off from the world, for
some time to come at least, without any
chance of escape. His enemies, the liberals,
| encircle him on every side, the North, the
South, the East and the West. and his fate
depends on the small chance of winning in
Vulnerable petty conflicts in the field, and
| thus propping up day by day tottering
throne. The first act of the Mexican Empire
is over, the curtain has fallen, and all is dark
behind the scenes. What further develop
ments this inimitable historical comedy or
tragedy is yet to unfold, lie hidden beyond
the reach ofhuman ken.
Strange are the destinies to which men are
born. Ferdinand Macmillan Joseph, is
next to the family of his elder brother. En-
peror of Austria, the heir of all the glories
and honors of the House of Hapsburg. He
will not be 35 years old till the 9Th of Jhlv
next. He was married on the 18th Of June
1910, to Charlotte Marie Amelie, the richest
helress of Europe, the accomplished daugh-
ter OF Leopold, King of the Beigi.ns. and
grand daughter of Louis Philippe, King,of
the French. The nuptials were the most
brilliant ever celebrated in Europe, and were
succeeded by fete after fete, to which none

on the Atlriatic; he the descend ant of a.
long line of emperors, is playing the, pazt of
Mexican chieftain at the head of a, few
thousand leperos, in the interior of Mexico.
Macmillan was the flower of the reieaina
family of the Hapsburgs, and of all the sons
ofthe Archduchess Sophia, was the most bril-
liant, spirited and beloved by the people of:
Vienna. Highly educated, he filed sucaes-
slvely the difficult positions of Governor Of:
Lombardy and Chief of the Austrian Nagy,-
with an industry, wisdom and success whiehs
are above all praise. What could have in

Perhaps, as some say, it was pecuniary trou-

perhaps IL was an overgrown ambition over
leaping itself to fall on t'other side;" per-
maps 1t was the romantic yet laudable be-
lief that the descendant of Ferdinand and

MS name, like that of his ancestors, immor--
tai However that may be, it is even still
greater mystery why, after the empire has
confessedly collapsed and all these dreams
must now be over, he could remain behind
and degenerate into Mexican partizan
chieftain.-M. o. Picayune.
