mated that he would make report

before the close of the session. The

ton of the proposed Canadian con
federation and kingdom have not vet
come to auy definite determinatio
upon which to base Il report. They
do not seem to know what to do with
the matter.
An organization has been formed
in this city, having for its object the
development and settlement Of our
public lands, by inducing emigrants
Of character to settle thereon and

The Columbia Meeting.

In its comments on the proceed
ings of the meeting held here on
Monday, the New York .Sun says:
The proceedings of the freedmen S

In the capital Of South Carolina. con
vey moral which should not be lost
on the Southern people. Many white
citizens were present at the meeting,
and addresses were delivered by Wade
Hampton and other leading Carroll
mans, rs well as by prominent CO.
lored men. The best of feeling pre-
vailed-the freedmen being highly
pleased with the frank and cordial
SPIN. manifested towdrt3, then. BY the
whites, and the latter were equally
gratl6ed with the disposition shown
by the freedmen 10 renew friendly
relations and to work together for
the general interest The most no
ticeablc feature Of the meeting, how
ever, was the expressed determina-
ton of the freedmen to support and
vote for the best men il the State in
the election for delegates to frame
the new constitution, and also to
urge upon Congress the propriety Of
repeating the clause Of the new law
which disiranchises large class of
the Southern people. This action is
significant. 1t shows that the ne
Groes are not imbued with hatred or
malice toward their old masters.
With their natural kind-heartedness,
they are now inclined to forget the
past, return good for evil, and do
what they can to relieve the whites
from the disabilities imposed upon
them by the law. We believe that
the action OF the Columbia freedmen
is an index Of what that class will do
throughout the South, if the whites
only treat them fairly and decently.
They are an atfectiouate, confding
and trusting people, anxious for
peace, quiet and contentment, and
with no natural taste for political
excltements. If they be made to feel
that the whites are disposed to be-
friend them, they will do anythng 6 in
reason to hold that friendship. If
We were disposed to venture predic-
ton, we would say that the negroes,
within five years, will leave the po-
lltical management of the South in
the hands of the whites, and be salts
fed with voting for the latter. Negro
suffrage will be q valuable help to
the South politically, if the friend
ship of the freedmen be cultivated,
and the time is not distant when that
section will feel thankful to Congress
for forcing upon it SO important an
addition to its political strength.
The Washington Repudltcma says it
will be curious to see the effect of
Beverly Nash's speech on the party
at the North.

The Presidents Views OF Military
Republics.

In an interview with President
johnson, last Saturday, the subject of
reconstructing the Southern States
under the new military government
bill, came up, and his opinion being
asked on the subject, he shook his
head gravely and remarked that the
holding of elections under military
control was in conflict with the spirit
of republican institutions. Then
rising and retiring to an adjoining
room, he returned with a book in his
hand, and read the following extract
from an address of Daniel Webster to
the citizens of Massachusetts, on the
occasion of the celebration of the
completion of the Bunker Hill Monu-
ment, on the 18th of june, 1913:
''They are yet on their trial, and I
hope for a favorable result: but truth.
sacred truth, and fidelity to the cause
of civil liberty, compel me to say that
hitherto they have discovered quite
too much of the spirit of that mo-
nlarchy from which they separated
themselves. Quite too frequent resort
IS made to military force, and quite
too much OF the substance of tho peo-
pie IS consumed in maintaining
armies, not for defen ce against foreign
aggression, but for enforcing obe-
clence to domestic authority. Stand
ing armies are the oppressive instru-
ments tor governing the people in
the hands Of hereditary and arbitrary
monarchs. A military republic-a
Government founded on mock elec-
lions "nu supported only by The
sword-ls a movement indeed, but a
retrograde and disastrous movement,
from the regular and old-fashioncd
monarchial system II men would
ENJOY the blessings Of republican 60
vernment, they must govern them
selves by reason, by mutual counsel
and consultation, by sense and feel
ing OF general interest and by the
acqulescence OF the minority in the
will OF the majority properly express
ed; and above all, the military must
be kept, according to the language of
our OH OF rights, IN strict SubOrdlna-
ton to the civil authority. Wherever
this lesson is not both learned and
practiced, there can be no political
freedom. Absurd, preposterous is it,
scott and Il satire on free forms of
government to be prescribed by mill
tary leaders, and the right Of suffrage
to be exercised at the point of the
sword"

the subject.

The Expense to the North,

l. AA4oi>ASAP Piiies ~i.Jc Calls the at
tentlon of its readers to the high
rates which they are compelled to
pay for the products of the South
without a corresponding increase il
the prices of their own productions.
We extract from its article on the
subject, the following paragraphs:
"Let us look at some of the facts
Take the article of sugar. Cuba.
clarified is quoted at 8 cents, in cold.
That would be from 1231 to 1871,
cents in currency, using the lowest
quotation of gold, that is, 1885,
Within q few years Havana sugar
could be bought at from so, brown,
to ~ cents, clarified; or loaf from /
to 13 cents the pound Sugar is a
Southern product. Carolina rice is
quoted at 1O34 to IL cents. 1t has
sold by the tierce in our market at 81,
cents, the retail price at the same
time being from to 6 cents. The
gold quotation IN this instance would
be- Sla cents per pound, an advance
OF nearly $50 per cent. over the
lowest prices given. Rice comes
from the South. Cotton is quoted
at from 80 to 81 cents. Its price in
gold would be from % to % cents.
The highest price at which cotton
ruled anterior to the war from 8. II
to 13 cents. The advance, there
fore, ranges near 100 per cent. at the
present time. The price of the best
cotton cloths, white or printed. for
merly rated: Wamsutta, from IL to
II cents; Merrimack and Sprague
Mills. from II to 13 cents. These
brands are selling from % to 2S cents.
and white goods higher in proportion.
that IS, from 80 t. 40 cents. This
is the Southern side of the account
Now look how Northern products
have been affected We have to pav
higher for all articles purchased. Do
we get an advance on all articles sold?
Hay IS quoted-the a:erage-takino
the short ton, at $500. This in GOLD

G2 to 50 cents: lowest inferior quality.

duction to gold would give IL cents
as the highest price, and 21l., cents
as the lowest. In lS45-46, wool.
when prices were much lower for ali
the products than they are at present,
would readily bring from 80 to So

same ratio of decrease exists in ali
the leading products Of the North.

all exhibit q great advance over their
former or actual value, while those of

for which we are asking a market.

relative values. This is a tax upon
the business and industry of the
North.

Congress will soon adjourn, and
the work OF reconstruction will then
