THE MOBILE NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
The following is the article published in
the Mobile Nationalist of the 30thi ult., ad-
vising colored people when and how to use
firearms, for which that paper was suppress
ed, as announced by telegraph q few days
ago:
To the Editor of the Nationalist: 8.
I wish you would give me space through
your honored journal to give word Of sd-
vice to the colored people of Mobile about
the use of firearms know that we are
accused of being turbulent and rotous, and
I also know that many of US are ignorant Of
what is right and dutiful in great degree;
that we are friendly toward the white peo.
pie as general thing, and that they would
be Just as friendly to US If we only could
agree with them in politics; and know too,
that there are many bad colored men - well
as bad white men, who will not agree with
anybody in what is just and good. But the
demonstration on the night Of the 14th
brought to my sight and to my mind one OF
the greatest errors that have ever seen the
colored people make. ! was in the thickest
of the firing, and had no. pistol because I
did not expect riot, and know great
many men who likewise lad no weapons.
Strange as it may seem, nearly all Of those
who did have pistols shot them of in the
air, where there was no enemy, knowing at
the same time that the alarm bell was -
busy as it could be, calling our enemies to
"Come!" "Come |" "Comer' But it ap-
pears to me that God had his finger In the
pie, and He directed Q general stampede OF
all parties. Had He not have done %, be-
live me, my friends, our enemies would have
rallied and come to the sound of the alarm
bell, and then and there they would have
found Us with empty pistols, and general
massacre would have been the result. beg
you, therefore, on all future occasions nfthst
kind, not to waste single shot until yon
see your enemy, then be sure be Is your cne-
my, and if you should pnt him to fight,
never waste the balance Of your smmnnitions
lest he should rally, and again assault yoa.
But dent forget my FIRST advice: lAoRt
shoot your. pistol until it is absolutely ne
cessary, and then be sure you shoot your
enemy. :. =.
The National,st commented - follows:
[The .prsctice Of carrying weapons y q
very bad custom inleed, and shcnh b
abandoned as soon - possible BY Al classes'
/! But it is especially impoxtsnt that the prac-
tice Of firing into the cir should be stopped,
| If man is attacked, he has perfect 1l&ht
to defend himself but throwing sway hta

We publish to-day very important order
from Gen. Sickles, No. 80.
This order covers good deal of ground.
Its object is justice to all, and the restora-
tion of the Union. Indeed, this is the whole
aim of the commanding General. Having
supreme power in District No. 2, we have no
doubt he is using it with an eye single to the

Gen. Schofeld in his recent order, which
we publish to-day, does not pay much attcn-
ton to Mr.. Stanbery's opinion. We do not
see why he should. That opinion is evi-
IDENTIFY in the interest of disloyalty.
Gen. Schofeld makes broad sweep in his
exclusions from the polls. Any thing, say
we, to restore the Union. There is no safety
for us in our present condition.

Gen. Sheridan has removed Gov. Wells, Of
Louisiana, and appointed Judge Thos. ].
Durant in his place. We have the pleasure
of being well acquainted with Judge Durant,
and can say with strict truth that his ap-
pointment is most excellent one. He is
one of the ablest and purest men of his State,
and his loyalty is Of the best stamp.

The President-The University.

President johnson, accompanied by Messrs.
Seward and Randall, Gen. Sickles and staff,
Col. Bomford and Staff, and others, visited
Chapel Hill on Thursday last, to be present
at Commencement The President was re-
ceived by Gov. Swain, the President of the
University. Speeches were made by Presi-
dent Swain, President johnson, Mr.. Seward,
Mr.. Randall, and Gen. Sickles, full reports
OF which we have not yet seen.. We think
it more than probable that full and correct
report of the speeches of Presidents Swain
and johnson will not appear
We learn that Gov. Swain, in the course
ofhis welcoming speech to the President,
referred to his veto messages as worthy of
the wisdom of Washington and the states
manship of Jefferson. President johnson,
in the course of his reply, paid tribute to
the courage displayed on the battlefield, but
he said the courage which he most admired
was that which enabled man to stand up
against the clamors OF tyrant majority.
This expression was enthusiastically applau-
ded. Of course neither of these expressions
will appear in Mr.. Gobright's report for the
Associated Press Indeed, the telegraph wires,
as well as the Railroads of the South, are in
rebel hands.
We learn that Confederate flag was
found waving in one of the rooms of one of
the Societies of the University. Wepresume
that out OF respect for the President and Gen.
Sickles this flag was removed for the time
being
Some of the officers belonging to the staff
of the President, Gen. Sickles and others
were entertained in very common style at a
hotel in the village of Chapel Hill. Theil
fare was quite ordinary, we learn, for which
they were charged 81 per day. Several Of
them left before the President did; Others
renamed longer out of respect to him.
The University has been, and now is, in
the hands of persons disaffected to the gov.
ernment of the United States. 1t must be
reformed. The State Convention to be held
under the Sherman act must reform il, g from
turret to foundation stone"
We regret to have to say that the effect o.
the Presidents visit to Raleigh and Chape
Hill has been to encourage the spirit of re
bellion. The enemies of the government art
more exultant and defiant than they hav'
heretofore been.

ing the integrity of the Union, and which
guided by the example of other nations, they
could with justice charge to the instiqators
of the rebellion and the men who attempter
the nations life. But the people off,,
North seek no such indemnify, they woul'
rather look upon the South as an o,i
brother, and receive him back into :,
communion under the maternal roof
to resort to harsh measures of punishment.
Our Government is not perfect, nothing
human creation is; but the men who can
see no good in the nation which protects
them in ''life, liberty and the pursuit of hap
piness," who find fault in everything, from
venomous and revengeful motives,are at this
time the worse enemies of the South and of
our country.-Ne,o6ern Republican.
AS additional evidence Of the good the Bu-
reau is doing, We state that during the last
month twelve thousand rations have been is
sued at Raleigh, for Raleigh and the sur
rounding country. These rations for one
place for one month are worth about $4,000.
At least one-half have been issued to

MEETING AT Mr.. TuPPER's CHuRcH.-
On Tuesday evening last, a large and enthn-
siastic concourse of our colored citizens %.
sembled in Mr.. Tupper's Church--which
building, by the way, is fast becoming
historic.
Rev. Mr.. Warwick was called to the Chair,
and Mr.. VIM. Cawthorn, of Warren, chosen
Secretary.
The meeting was then addressed by Mr.. G.
L. Harris, who introduced Rev. Mr.. Ellis
worth, of Newbern, who was followed by
Messrs. Thomas and Carpenter Of the same
City. Their addresses were received with
warm manifestations of approval; and really
deserve more notice than our short space Of
to-day will allow. We trust that Republican
Newbern may come to see Us ut RALEIGH
over and often.
Mr.. j. H. Harris closed the meeting in Q
short address, when the doxolgy was sung
benediction pronounced and the large audi.
ence dispersed much pleased with the even,
ing's entertainment.
