RICHMOND, April 25.

RICHMOND, ApTlI 20.
Senator Wilson spoke at Orange G. FL,
yesterday. He rccounted the events which
led to tie war, and said that after its close,
the North had no i'll feeling for the South.
The South was submissive, and had the
measures now pending been adopted at
its close, the South would have said the
Government was just ard liberal; but
when johnson assumed power, he adopted
a different policy, which has brought on all
this dissatisfaction. Lincoln had prepared
eight conditions for the pardon of the re-
bells, all of which met his (Wilson's) ap-
proval johnson prepared fourteen,
which were six too many. He (WilSon)
had never favored the $4,000 clause,
for he wanted the men of the South, ex-
cept few prominent leaders, to be at lib
erty to go to work. The South bad COM
planned of Congress violating the Con-
stitution, and yet upheld johnson in his
violations of the Constitution, in restoring
the States. The speaker was opposed to a
black mans party, or white mans par
ty; let all who favor human bondage go
together, and all who favor freedom and
progress go together. If any rebels had
cast aside their delusions, let them come
up and join the Republican party.
Major J. Lee, State Senator from
Orange, replied to Wilson. He charged
the introduction OF slavery upon the n orth,
and said Lincoln did not at first intend TO
Iiberate the slaves, ind that the Southern
people were the blacks best friends.
Wilson replied that, in year, the North
would give the negro suffrage. He said
confscation might follow, it the recon-
struction bill was not accepted.

Let there be no Strife.

We have not for somee time past, says
the Atlanta h,telligencer, addresseda word
of appeal, or even Of advice or counsel,
to the Freedmen in our midst. Perhaps we
have been derclict in this, but there were
motives actuating, which must no longer
control us, and which must henceforth no
longer prevail over us-motivcs, the re-
suit rather of sensitiveness in this, that
we did not desire to appear officious in
rendering counsel to a race SO recently in
bondage to ours. The time has come,
however, when we must address both
raccs-ths white and tho black alike-in
our midst. There must be harmony, not
antagonism, between the two races in the
South The destiny and welfare OF each
is with the South. Each claims it as
their native land The freedman of the
South, must be made to feel and know
that there is no Northern, no Western
home for him. Ho is planted as it were
upon Southern soil, and here he must adj
vance and flourish, or reccdc and perish

"A Word to Farmers.

AS it is our privilege to advise, we must
have wcrd or two with our planting
friends. We recognize in them the wealth
of the State, the financial power and pros
perity of the State, and such being the
fact, it bellooves us, in modest sort Of
way, to have word with them about
their business, their interest, and the gen
eral prosperity of the country.
True wealth is not in what we make, but
what we save; like reading, not i'll what we
have read, but what we remember-notl In
what we eat, but in what we digest So
with the prosperity of any people; it is the
internal wealth, or domestic wealth that is
felt through every fibre and nerve OF our
social system. A community of interests
is true economy and prosperity.
As. it is to-day, what do we see (? What
money our planting friends got for their
cotton is fast leaving the State for corn
and bacon; our wealth is but transitory,
but borrowed, if we may so express our
selves; for the Northwest say it is theirs,
and sure enough they get it by sending us
corn and bacon that we must have, when
we could have raised it, had We studied
political economy as we should have done.
What we have to say to our planting
friends is this: Plant enough corn for your
own use by all means. Better plant
enough to sell few bushels to your city,
town and village neighbors, who make
their living by their professions, trades,
DC. Make as much cotton as you please,
for cotton is sure money at all times, but
do not forget the corn-feld, peas, potatoes
and especially your hogs. Ii you do not,
or cannot sell provisions, do not come into
the market to buy, and thereby enhance
the price of such articles to the hurt of
those who live not by farming. But
where you can sell, you do good in two
ways. First, your farming is an advantage
to your ncighbor and State. Secondly,
YOU put in your pocket money that would
have rone out Of the State if you had not
have had what was wanted. You are
thus enabled to- improve your lands, or TO
invest money in stocks, if desirable.
We must live within ourselves, help
each other; keep our money circulating at
home among ourselves; build up our homes
and towns; invest in home stocks or rail-
roads. Such can be, and ought to be done,
if YOU will only be something more than
mere cotton planters. But when the
country is depleted of its wealth Tor the
necessaries OF life that could have been
had at home, it is premcditated murder OF
our own financial happiness and pros
perity. A.. -,
Lei this year proclaim the fact that all
of our planting friends have provisions to
sell. and that cotton must play second
fiddle to the corn crib and hog pen. When
such is the case, the day of our prosperlty,
as a people is dawning, and if continued
in. we will soon stand in the sunlight OF
unembarrasscd and true wealth. Cotton
is good thing in its place, but not when
cultivated at the expense OF all our pro-
visions that truth and act ac-
cordinglyr-SoMhern Recorder.

for no whore else within the limits Of the
"Union" can. he enjoy the advantages
presented to him here 1t were well,
then, for the freedmen within our midst
to deliberate seriously on their condition,
the relation tkoy will bear to the South,
and the absolute necessity which requires
that there shall be no strife between him
and Che white man Of Southern birth and
education, his former master. The South
ern white man is the freedman's natural
ally. He is the frecdman's- best friend (;
the party most interested in the freed
mans welfare AS the black man advan-
ces in prosperity, SO will the white man.
Every material interest of the one is iden-
tilted with that Of the other, and we are
gratifed to see that this view of the "sit-
uation" is being taken by many of the
most intelligent eofored men Of the South,
and even in this city. But recently, too,
there was political meeting held in
Nashville, at which q colored man, one
Alexander Williams, who had formerly
been q slave, and then soldier in the
Federal army, who desired to express the
opinions of his race. The request was
acceded to, and the following is reported
as an extract from his speech:
"He. came forward amid q shower of
applause, and thanked the gentlemen
present fer the privilege of addressing his
fellow-citizens. He said slavery was
abolished, and no law could restore it; it
was dead forever, and he, therefore, could
see no reason why the colored man could
not advocate the cause Of his former mas
ter, but now best friend, and hold and OK
press his political sentiments without
being called rebels and copperheads. The
colored people ought to aid their old
friends in the South in restoring harmony
and good government. Their former
owners were willing to lend q helping
hand, and the colored citizens should aid
them they have the wealth and capacity,
and we the strength and industry. He
could see no reason why We should not
work for our friends and vote for them
too He was proud to see what had been
done to-day, and to hear the speeches
made. This was the place to- give the
colorcd man his rights-here in the South,
where there are millions of colored men
NOT in The North, beyond the Ohio
[Cheers.] Let us join hand and hand for
the common good. We must agree, or
there will be a falling out. The colored
people only asked to have their rights,
and the speaker felt confident they would
be more easily obtained from their old
friends than their new and pretended
ones. He endorsed everything that had
been, said in the Convention, and was
ready to lay down his life for such prin-
ciples. [Applause.] The best thing to
be done is to unite. If we do that, there
will be no danger of failure"
