SPEECH OF Mr.. Pou.-On Saturday eve
ming last, we had the pleasure of listening to
the address of Mr.. E. w. Pou, at the Court
House in this City, on the cause and cure
of the nations troubles" Mr.. P very forci-
bly, depicted the rise of the slave power,
showed how it divided the nation into geo.
graphical parties, and precipitated war. He
argued that morally and politically slavery
had been great evil to the South, and had
produced sorrow in all the nation. He
showed how it snapped churches and parties
asunder; and concluded with an appeal to
all to reunite those golden links of Union and
peace. 1t could only be done by confess
ion of the errors of the past. He strongly
urged the establishment of the Republican
party on stable foundation, in every South
ern State, and expressed his feelings OF in
dignation towards the copperheads or North
ern Conservatives for the part they had
PLAYED since the rebellion.
We believe that Mr.. Pou's address gave
general satisfaction. He was frequently APP
plauded, and all his remarks were listened to
with attention.

"If Governor johnson is really your friend,
and wishes to see all thepeople prosper, why
don't he accept the Reconstruction an d Sup

should be thankful that he has the privilege
of coming here to-day to speak to you and
to advise you. He has reason to be thank
full because he has not been hung"

The small pox has at last become sacrile-
gious in Japan, having lost all respect for
the sacred person of the Mikado. The late
Mikado died of that disease, whereupon the
Japan Herald says that it, although COM
mon to the country since the time Of the first
Mikado, Jingmoo Ten-o, who reigned 1868
years ago, has never been known to attack
the sacred person of Mikado until now"

sons of Rockport, left the premises of his
owner, and deliberately walked to the break
water,a distance of mile, and jumping
over, swan with his head under water until
life was extinct, thus committing suicide
The dog was nearly blind and quite infirm.

ARKANSAS The town of Napoleon, Ark.
is situated on tongue of land at the juno

Last year the river cut deeply into this point,
and now large portion of the town has
disappeared. The water the other day was
sixteen feet deep in the streets, and the
chances are that another season will see
steamers running. over the city.

The WHEAT Crop IN ILLINoIs.-The
Prairie Farmer, in notice of the wheat crop,
concludes thus: at isparticularly pleasant,
under this state of circumstances. to know
that the growing crop has never been more
promising. The deep SHOWS ofwinter, lying
steadily on the ground, have been the chief
cause of this. 1t is true that the crop is still
liable to suffer during the summer from
drought, and we may possibly be visited, as
at times heretofore, by insects: but this dan.
ger is not immediate, and 1t is satisfaction
enough to know that there are now no un-
favorable indications, and that so tar as in
dications go, we have every reason to antici-
pate an abundant and profitable harvest"

States evinced in rejecting the Howard
amendment. There is no door by which we
can enter but the Republican door. The
friends of those who saved the Union, and
who now conduct the affairs of the nation,
can alone restore our State to her forfeited,
coveted position.
Union men must, therefore, be Republic
cans. There is no room for choice in the
matter. 1t may be disagreeable to some to
accept and act upon this truth; but such
persons, if they really love the State, and
desire to see cur people once more on the
high road to prosperity, will conquer their
preiudices, or will, at least, if they can not
act with the Republicans, throw no obstruc-
lions in their way.
The Republican party of North Carolina
is daily adding to its numbers. Its doors
are open to all honest men who love the
Union, and who are ready to make any sac
rifces to restore it. 1t is destined to be the
party of the State; and weappeal especially
to our young men, on grounds both of inter
est and patriotism SO far as they are con-
cerned, to unite themselves with it. Let
every good Union man at once announce
his adhesion to the Republicans. Let him
show his hand Let him unfurl his colors.
For we repeat the Republican party is the
party of the Union, and the State can be re-
constructed only through its instrumentality.
RIOT IN RIcHMoND.-There are conflict
ing statements as to the origin of this
| rot. It seems from the Richmond Times
and N. Y. Hesulds accounts that a large
crowd of colored people had assembled to
witness the trial between the Wilmington,
Del, fire engine and the Richmond engines
The Wilmington engine failed in its trials to
surpass its rivals, and a negro man remark
! ed, that {" the Richmond engine could beat
the Wilmington company all hollow One
of the Delawarans, taking offence, struck the
colorcd man, and fight ensued. The po-
lice arrested both men. On demand of Capt.
Charters of the FIRE company the white man
was released and turned over to the custody
of his company. This enraged the colored
people who saw the police still in possession
of one of their own color, and the riot ensu-
ed. During the whole of the excitement,
whites mingled freely with the eolored peo-
pie, going whittier they pleased and attend
ing to their own affairs The crowd after
rescuing the prisoner, was dispersed The
whole proceedings were evidently more bois-
ferrous than dangerous
