An advertising people are always
thrifty. The enterprise and energy
that prompt them to push forward in
the race and keep themselves and their
business before the eyes of the world
insure them against failure. 1t would
be difficult to point to single instant
of a great success in trade that has not
been won through the valuable medium
of the advertising columns of the press.
Our most famous houses in every branch
of business are those which have expen-
ded fortunes as advertisers, and persev-
cred until thoy have forced patronage
from the public, The American people
are beginning understand these truths,

The COlOred Man.

We have never ceased to urge upon
the colored people OF the South this idea
that their true interests ran on all
fours with the interests of the white
people of the South. The colored man
who thinks for a moment that the car
pet-baggers and scalawags have come
down here from the North out of pure
love for him and his race, and not to
line their own, dirty pockets with the
fruits of their stealings is, to speak
plainly, ga blasted fool Human ma
ture shows no example Of love like this.
There is but one instance of it on the
records of time, and that was given by
the Divine benevolence, which gave the
Son of God to purchase the forgiveness
Of world of souls. These scurvy scoun-
drels from the North, colored men, are
here to prey upon the whites and to
make tools ofyou?an the rascals new
er cease to laugh in each others faces
when they think what blind asses they
have found in the majority of your peo-
pie.
Forget not what we, have told you so
often that the white and the black. men
of the South have, in the end, to settle
this question of relations, political and
social, between them. When the scala
wags have filled their pockets with all
the plunder they can lay their thieving
hands on, you and we will be left to
make final settlement. And Just as
sure as you are born you have got to
meet us, face to face, in this matter,
with the scalavags counted out-count-
ed out they are obliged to be. If not
one way, another, for life is not pre-
cious enough to balance against the
stern determination of this people to
overthrow the usurpation and tyranny
of these intruding scoundrels and incen-
diaries.
Let the colored man stand aside un-
til this contest for the mastery Of this
land is settled. He can gain nothing,
but risk much and lose much by taking
a part in it. Stand aloof, black man,
and then join and make friends with
those who win.
The Southern people wish you well,
and they will be your friends if you
let them: But if you consort with their
enemies, you take your destiny with
them, and that is certain defeat. This
Southern land is ours and "by the
Eternal we mean to rule it.-Mobile
Register.

Two years have passed. 1t is once
more the time Of blossoming roses, and
Christine Jarvys came out Of the front
door of her country home, and again
looked upon the fair landscape.
Somehow those two years had chang
ed Christine; but the change was that
which comes not of years, but of char
acter. Something more thoughtful, more
spiritual, had come to the sweet face.
The memory of that night came back
to Christine Jarvys as she gazed.
at was just such an evening as this,
and there in that white belt Of moon
light by the gate you kissed me for
the last time-oh, Alfred!" she mur-
INJURED.
Miss Christine" fell upon her ear,
and she started, for the speaker had
entered the grounds by the side gate,
and come round to the front steps so
lightly that she had not heard him.
Her face flushed into glad surprise,
as she gave the speaker her hand with
the cordiality of long friendship.
"I am glad to see you back once
more, Mr.. Winthrop"
"Thank you,' said he. "The three
long months since l left seemed long
