thus ''hits the nail on the hcad:"
II tell you that the Northern
States are refusing toilet the negro
vote on their side ofthe river. They
wish to compel him to remove to the
Southern States, where he will be
allowed suffrage. This action is based
on the idea that the negro will natur-
ally 60 where he has most privileges,
and especially if that climate best
suits him. They wish, therefore, to
ship the negro upon you, because you
dare not control him without running
the risk of the interference of Federal

OF the thirty-nine thousand Africans i'm
ported, during: these years into Charleston
the people of South Carolina imported only
two thousand and six. Tho people of Great
Britain and New England have been the
most prominent in denonnoIng us, for hav-
ing slaves; yet it appears that Great Britain
imported and sold to us, nineteen thousand
six hundred, and Rhode Island ssvon thou
sand nine hundred, of the thirty-nine thou
sand slaves. Rhode Island, in order that
she might see that the auction block, realized
the value Of her importations, had in Charles
ton lightweight Of her trusty natives as the
consignees Of her cargoos Now, let it be re-
collected, that this was long after the consti-
tuition was in full operation in 1889, and just
before, the entire prohibition OF the African
slave trade took place in 1903, by the terms
Of the constitution. When the constitution
was made, 1877, South Carolina had prohib-
tied the importation Of slaves from any quar-
Ter into the States.

A MAN-WoLF.-Rev. DR.. Butler,
the well known missionary in India,
recently returned to this country.
He makes the following statement of
a remarkable case:
In 1859 British soldier, while
bearing a dispatch from one Magis-
trate to another in the Kingdom of
Dude, passed an unfrequented ravine,
where he saw pack Of wolves, and
a human being evidently one Of their
company. Immediately turning back
he reported the circumstance TO the
Magistrate for whom he was travel
ing. The latter forthwith mustered
a number of Coolies and went to the
place. The pack of wolves fled a
short distance and sought refuge in
a sort of cave or den, Beginning to
dig, the party soon discovered the
feet of the wild man and drawing him
forth, succeeded in binding him and
carrying him to town. DR.. Butler
has seen him often since, and says
he is evidently a man,, and at the
time of his capture apparently about
twcnty-iour years of age.
