The Beauties of Negro Rule.

The attempt now making to Africanize
the South has turned the attention of the
white men of this country to the results
of similar experiments in other countries.
In this connection, the New York Herald,
in the course of an article showing how
the Radical theory of reconstruction is
making a combination of Hayti and Ja>
maica in the South, says:
In Hayti we have nothing bat war of
races since its discovery by Columbus
From the negro Emperor, Jacques /, in
1904, to the present ruler, Salnave, the
Haytien part of the island has presented
even worse condition than that which is
presented in the lsng years of wholesale
Spanish murders which made it's horrors
proverb How rapidly the country
marches to the primitive barbarism. which
Is the delight of the negro race, Is best
shown by the value of the exports just
previous 10 the accession of Jacques /,
compared with those of to-day. At that
time they reached the large figure of $27,-
$4,000. To-day they are scarcely So
| 100000.
But if Hayti exhibits sorry argument
| for negro domination, what does Jamaica
show Since the island was given up TO
negro rule, its march has been rapid from
bad TO worse, until to~day one of the finest
and formerly one of the most productive
of all the West India group lies but a
wreck in negro hands. All this has taken
place in thirty four years, notwithstanding
the efforts of the English government to
prevent it. And how of Liberia Large
sums Of money, Christian and missionary
effort unlimited, have been used to little
advantage. The negro there, forced into
a hot-house growth, and kept upon the
plus side of civilization by constant
white effort, IS still far dcwn in the scale.
He often runs eastward to lis native bar
barisD, and is only kept inside the bounds
of the colony By large contributions to bis
welfare. We dismiss Liberia rs nam
moth negro poor-house.
But Liberia IS nothing 30 the negro
poor-house we are establishing in the
whole Southern half Of the United States
We so into this negro asylum business as
we 60 into every thing else in America
We set the whole Northern half of the
nation TO earning money to maintain the
negro. We make huge appropriations fol
the benefit of the negro. We bury al
material progress TO embody all our ideas
in the progress of the negro. We take
10 time to legislate upon our ruined com
merce, for we are occupying every moment
for the negro. We approach financia
panic, but try to hide il by holding before
it the negro.
We reconstruct the South, not for tht
common benefit of the white and black
relative to the whole nation, but entirely
for the negro. The Radicals GO so fa

- No other work con ntains so many re-
liable biographies Of the leading men of this
and other nations In tbis respect it is far
superior even to the mere bulky Encyclo-
p@dia Britannica.
So The best minds in this country have
been employed in enriching its pages with
the latest data, and the most recent discov-
cries in every branch of manufactures, me-
chanics, and general science.
"a. 1t is library in itself, where every
topic is treated, and where information can
be cleaned which will enable student. if
he is so disposed, to consult other author
tiles, thus affording him an invaluable key
to knowledge.
SO. 1t is neatly printed, with readable
type, on good paper, and contains most CO.
dious index.
''6. 1t is the only work which gives any
thing approaching correct descriptions Of
cities and towns of America, or embraces
reliable statistics showing the wonderful
growth of all settions "
Every one that reads, every one that
mingles in society, is constantly meeting
with allusions to subjects on which he needs
and desires further information. In conver-
sation, in trade, in professional life, on the
farm, in the family, practical questions are
continually arising, which no man, well read
or not, can always SATISFACTORILY answer. II
facilities for reference are at hand, they are
consulted, and not only is the curiosity graft
fed, and the stock of knowledge increased
but perhaps information is gained and ideas
are suggested that will directly contribute to
the business success Of the party concerned.
A CyclOp@dia is pre- eminently the work
of our country and generation. This is the
age of steam. No one has time to grope
among hundred different works for every
little fact required, without the certainty of
finding it al last. With a CycloI e liza EN-
bracing every conceivable subject, and hav-
ing its topics alphabetically arranged, not a
moment is lost The matter in question IL
found at once, digested, condemned, stripped
of all that Is irrelevant and unneces ssary, and
verified by comparison of the best authori-
ties. Moreover. while only men of fortune
can collect library complete in all the de
partments of knowledge. a Cycloredia.
worth in itself for purposes cf reference at
least a thousand volumes. is within the reach
Of all-the clerk, the merchant. the profeS-
sional man, the farmer, the mechanic. Ia a
country like ours, where the humblest may
be called to responsible positions requiring
intelligence and general information. the
ualue OF such work cannot be over-esti-
mated.

THE BANKRUPT LAW. ALI who con-
template availing themselves of the bene-
fits of the Bankrupt Law must do so pre-
vi0us to March 2, 1868, as the fifty per
cent. clause takes effect on that day. All
claims against a bankrupt who applies
after next March will, as a matter of
course, be proven. Section 33 of the law,
in relation to the fifty per cent, is as fol-
lows: "And in all proceedings in bank
ruptcy, commenced after one year from
the time this act shall go into operation,
no discharge shall be granted to debtor
whose assets does not pay fifty per cent.

ton and Dayton Railroad, on Thursday
The Cambria freeman. [volume] (Ebensburg, Pa.) 1867-1938, 1867-11-28

The belief is quite general that Wes-
ton, the pedestrian, is in league with one
or more parties who have staked large
sums of money against his accomplishing
the one hundred-mile feat, and that he
will receive more money by failing in it
than he would otherwise One rumor is
that John Morrissey had made a bet of
500, 900 that Weston would not do it,
and that he is to give Weston $4,000 in
order that he may win $4,000. There
are strong evidences that he might have
made the one hundred miles either in the
first or second trial if he had been SO dis
posed.
