A negro in Virginia is gradually
turning white. During the seven
days fight around Richmond, he OBJ
served small white spot on his arm
This has increased until one-third of
his body is white, and the skin is soft
as an infants. He ought to hurry
and register. before it is too late.
Rev. Joseph Lindsey, the pious
clergyman who whipped his little boy
to death because the child would not
say his prayers, and who was, in con-
sequence, sentenced to the State pri-
son of New York, has been released
on bail for q new trial.
The Massachusetts shoe business
has improved considerably from the
inactivity of the winter and early
spring. In Lynn, the factories are
doing very brisk business, and the
establishments in Boston are quite
lively.
A correspondent states that Mr..

TRUTH FrTLY SPOKEN. ex-
change has the following paragraph
In the late struggle for independ-
ence. says practical writer, the
North conquered the South. A greater
and more signal victory remains for
the South to conquer herself. Old
pursuits are to be changed, old habits
abandoned, and her prejudices must
be weeded out before she can again
renew her prosperous career. Mr..
Carey has laid down an axiom in po-
litical economy whic time and expe-
rience demonstrate: GA country
which grows and exports its raw pro-
ductions, must end by exporting its
inhabitants, or starve." Last year,
the South planted cotton, to the ne
glect of corn and grain; now, large
districts are destitute-no bread to
eat. The lesson is too dear to be lost
Florida, owing to the goodness of
her climate, abundance of fish and
game, is in measure exempt from
the calamity weighing so heavily
upon South Carolina and Georgia
Still she shares in the general dis
tresS.

The Fcnians Once More.

Vhe t'cnlanS Once u1Ores
The irrepressible Fenians are rep
resented as again about to try their
hand on Canada. The New York
World says:
eve learn from undoubted sources
that the Fenians are really deter
mined to make another raid upon
Canada. We are unable, from the
crowded state of our columns, to
give the particulars to-day; but our
neighbors over the border may rest
assured that they had better get their
shot-guns in order and keep their
powder dry. These disturbances are
to be regretted, but the moral they
teach should be needed by the Cana
.dians. They cannot expect perma
nent peace until they cast their lot
with the great North American Re-
public. What say you, friends over
the border?"
What humbug! If the deluded
masses of the Irish in New York or
other Northern cities are so weak
minded and foolish as to believe that
they can in any way benefit their
native land, Oh in this manner make
the slightest forward step in reliev-
ing her from what they call fBritish
misrule," then, indeed, are they not
only misled, but are more effectually
forging stronger fetters for her, and,
very probably, manufacturing halters
for themselves those of them, at
least, who do not get killed in the
forey.
English leniency need not be ex-
pected to continue patient much
longer, and every futile attempt
against that Government only puts
off the day of Ireland's freedom-if,
indeed, that day should ever come.
At all events, now is not the time to
make the experiment; let the excited
and reckless men, who would rush to
their own destruction, calmly await
the progress of events, remembering
the old saying, that "England's ne
cessity is Ireland's opportunity" AS
for the foolish suggestion of the
World, it is akin to the advice given
to young lady as to the best way of
getting rid of disagreeable suitor,
and that was, to marry him. The
treatment of ''rebels" in this coun-
try is not much more lcnient than
that of the Government whose op-
preston the unhappy Irish have de-
nounced for centuries past. Might
is right, as the Fenians ought to
know by this time, both from. their
own experience and those still sadder
lessons which the history of all such
up-risings against British authority
teaches:

SOME HOPEFUL SIGNS. The New
York Journal Of Commerce chronicles
hopeful sign of improvement in
the general interests of the country.
1t says:
cit is found in the altered tone of
feeling among those prominent bust
ness men who have heretofore acted
with the extremists Of the dominant
party. We notice unmistakable signs
within q few days that the eyes of
some of these gentlemen are open to
the probable future, in case the poll
teal radicals are longer entrusted
with the management of political
affairs; and the costly tuition under
which so many have recently been
brought is evidently producing it's
legitimate effect. This may lead to
nothing beyond q temporary restraint
upon those measures from which the
country is now suffering; but, rs the
reaction must come at last, we see
no reason why it may not have be-
gun now, not to be arrested until
peace is restored to all parts of our
land, and trade is released from the
oppressive load under which it is
now struggling"
The actual condition of business is
still one of great depression, trade in
the necessaries, as we'll as the luxu-
ries, being very languid.

A July SESSION WASHINGTON

A July SESSION. Washington
despatch, to the Baltimore SIN, says:
An energetic effort is made by the
impeachment party and Mr.. Sumner
and others to bring sufficient num-
ber of members of Congress here in
July, to form quorum of both
houses. Mr.. Sumner says he only
remains here himself to help make
up the quorum, and, if possible, pass
q law to give suffrage to the negroes
in the Northern States and in the
Territories. Thirty-three letters to
members were sent off yesterday by
the impeachment party, urging them
to come on, and a large number have
been written to by MI. Sumner, who
urges them to come in aid of his suf-
frage proposition.

SOUTHERN ASYLUM LAND CoMpA-

ton which has been chartered by the
Legislature of Mississippi, which is
authorized to buy and sell lands, or
dispose of them by chance. The
company is located at Hernando.
Miss. and the Memphis BuQeti,
states that it now holds not less than
1,OOO,0 900 worth of property. The
purpose of the company seems to be
two-fold-to found an asylum for
Southern widows and orphans, and
to sub-divide plantations, and to dis
tribute the richest lands among i'm
migrants, small farmers and garden

many we'll known and prominent citi-

The Right Kind of missionaries.

The Right Kind OF Missionaries.
We.noticed, some time ago, that a
party of Pennsylvania capitalists had
visited Virginia for the purpose of
investing largely in lands and manu-
factories in that State. We now no.
tice, with great qualification, in some
Of our Georgia exchanges, that q
party of about forty Northern gen.
tlemep, representing about $40, ,OOO,-
900 capital, will visit that State, early
in September, for the purpose of in
vestiug in improved and unimproved
lands, in and near the route of the
Atlantic and Gulf Railroad. if they
can be purchased on reasonable
terms. Their ulterior object is to
found q settlement or colony of
Northern farmers, who are to culti-
vate the lands as tenants for speci-
fled term Of years, when they will be-
come proprietors.
These are the sort Of missionaries
the South now really needs, and all
such will be welcomed most cordially,
and very soon learn what is the
genuine old-fashioned hospitality her
people have been so long famed for.
They will also discover the utter
worthlessness and unreliability of the
stories of the fanatical emissaries and
itinerant Bohemians, which portion
of their press delight to employ to
regularly regale and edify their read
ers. Let the work of reconstruction
be taken out Of the hands of their
base party politicians, and prosperity
would follow in an incredibly short
space of time.

Rock ISLAND GooDs.-We call
attention of the merchants Of our
city and State to the card of the Pre-
sident of the Rock Island Manufac-
turing Company of North Carolina
We have before us number of SAM
pies of the goods the establishment
turns out. They embrace a large
variety Of beautiful all-wool cassi-
meres, and of very durable jeans and
kerseys. Some of the specimens of
the cassimeres are equal to those i'm
ported, in texture and elegance of
finish, comprising beautiful black,
grey mixed and striped.
One thing may be relied on as to
these goods, they are what they are
represented to be, and are not like
those from most of the Northern
factories, the worthlcssness of which
has earned them the contemptuous
name of shoddy, and whose beauty
is not even skin deep, but disappears
with the first good wetting it re-
ceives, while its durability is simply
n mockery. We trust our merchants
will lay in plentiful supply of these
home manufactures, as they have
every advantage over the imported
articles. They, at the same time
that they thus supply the masses with
cheap and durable goods, render the
South the highest service, in that de-
partment of prosperity and industry
in which she most needs the aid and
support of her own people. Let our
merchants, then, forward their orders
to Mr.. Young, the President of the
Company, in good season, that they
may be on hand in good time for the
fall business.
