One span in particlar attraction auen
attention on account OF their beauty
and activity. COnsideTOg the many
ADVANTAGES which mules have over
horses for the farm. It is rather suTprl-
sing that they are In so little favor
with farmers In this part Of the State.
Mules are not 30 liable to disease as
horses, and they live 70 much great
er age. Instances are recorded o.
mules living fifty years, but this o.
course Is unusual. Their average ags
may be set down at least at 2 thlL1
longer than the horse. The heaElo5
Of the male Is much more - 80 -
than the horse, and he Is n9oon -
likely to sheer of or be itlghteh az
the sight or sound OF any opJect on tn tlis
roadside. They are very sure Ioo.e9,
and traqgI fearlessly along the brio <
Of Z precipiee, where the morse eouia
mot Be induced to 90. We could not
INT admire this Characteristic Of the
mule while climbing the Alps IN
Switzerland. The mule upon Which
re we're mounted always seemed 20
perfer the very edge Of the preolplee.
On account Of their sure-footedness
they are always preferred by travellers
over mountains and dangerous passes.
Mules are said to endure the neat
while IabOring much bstteF than nor
ses. and as they consume less food are
90 much hardier, SO much less liable
TO accidents both Of limb and body
than the horse, il would seem they
could Be profitably introduced upon
our farms. The question Of food alone
is quite an important stem in their IA
voT, for We have no doubt but that a
pair Of mules, doing the same amount
Of work on the farm as a pair Of hOT-
ses, could be kept at one-haH the ex-
pense Of feed as the horses, and still
be in good working order all the time.

From the Greensboro (Geo) Herald.
Address of the White People of Greene Co.,
Georgia, to the Colored People of the same
County.
We white people wish to say a few things
to you black people who were our former
slaves We wish to say that we are still
your friends. We do not wish to injure
you. On the contrary, we are anxious to
see you prosperous and happy. 1t is our
interest to be friendly with you, for we
expect to live with you always. 1t is to
YOUR interest to be friendly with us for the
same reason. You will always live with
us. You canpot get away from us, and we
cannot get away from you. We form but
one community We are like one family.
Now you know house divided against it
self cannot stand The Bible teaches us
this. So if we wish to live in peace we
must be friends. That is what we desire.
We wish now to caution you against
great danger. Strangers from the North
nave come among us, and have endeavored
to get you all together into black mans
party. Without saying whether their mo-
lives are good or bad, we wish to say to
you that if you allow yourselves to be form
ed into black mans party, you will force
party. So right at the beginning you see
uur house is divided against itself. Do
Won not see that if the black man is oppo-
sed to the white man it follows from this
that the white man is opposed to the black
man So we shall be opposed to each
other. Now, no good can come from this
It will bring nothing but harm to white
and black, but the greatest harm will be to
YOU. These Northern adventurers who
come out here pretend that they are your
friends. Perhaps some of them are, put
they deceive you when they tell you tna'
the Northern people are going to do any
thing for you, except so far as they can use
YOU as tools for their own purposes.
If the Northern people love the blacks
so much, why don't they do something for
them at home Don't you know that only
a. LEW few months ago it was proposed in Ohio
to let the negroes vote, and that the white
people there voted it down by forty or n

Saturday morning before the child was
for nd, had given birth to child; that il
he'd been delivered in the stable and
that with, perhaps, assistance the mother
had killed the child in the stable and GOV.
cred it up with some loose manure and lit.
ter, from which place it had been dragged
by dog, who, after eating the body, at
empted to remove the remainder to a dis
lance that in crossing the field with it in
his mouth, he was discovered by negro
woman, who caused him to drop it.
The body, from what was left of it Zone
arm and the entrails gomez, showed that
the child had reached full maturity, that
it had been strangled Ia strong string be-
ing tightly tied around the neck, and that
its skull had been crushed-literally beaten
iuto jelly. Near the place from where
the dog had dragged the body, marks were
that the child had been taken by the feet
and struck at least one violent blow, which
crushed the skull, and which of itself was
sufficient to kill it.
On Monday morning of this week, Mar
garet had an examination before justices
II. A. Crawford and Jno. Coppedge (her
condition not admitting of a trial before),
and, in view of the evidence, the magis-
trates deemed it their duty to commit her
to Jail to await trial at the next term of our
Superior Court. -Wadesboro Argus.
| MILL BURNED.-A mill, running two sets
of stones, one -four and the other grist, in
fine condition, situated on Lanes Creek,
in Union county, about four miles from
| Whites Store, on the road to Monroe, was
| fired on Sunday night week, (the 10th in
stant,) and consumed with nearly all its
contents-some three Or four thousand
pounds of -four and several lots of wheat
and corn, belonging to persons in the
neighborhood. Three negroes. Ned White
and his two sons, Martin and Isham, have
been arrested and committed to Union jail
at Monroe, the two last charged with be-
ing the incendiaries, and the father to be-
ing an accessory. It seems that after the
mill was burned lot of flour was found in
the neighborhood in the bushes, and the
parties finding it kept watch to see who
came after it. The night after the fire the
boys came with several mules and horses,
taken without permission from some of the
citizens in the neighborhood, and began
to remove the -four, when the party in
aiding sprung upon them. They ran. and
refusing a summons to halt, they were fred
upon, and one of them wounded and
brought down, and soon after the other
was captured. They claim that their father
was not party to the burning of the mill
that he knew nothing of the fire until
the mill was destroyed, but that he con-
| had taken from it. They charge that they
were instigated by a white man to do the
Decd not to rob, but to fire the mill, and
that they removed the -four after it was
fired, thinking it pity so much -four
should be destroy ed.-W adesboro Argus.

A Hopeful Sign.

A gentleman who is connected with the
Banking and Currency Bureau returned
here Saturday from business trip in the
West, and reports the Republican party
badly divided. In Cincinnati he found all
the leading Republicans indignant at the
assaults which had been made on Chief
Justice Chase, and many of them openly
declared their purpose to sustain the Con
servative ticket regardless of who might be
the nominee in the New York Convention.
They said they agreed fully with the Chief
Justice that the time had come for all
lovers of constitutional liberty to band to-
gether against the Jacobins.

thousands of her best citizens, prescribed by the

can be no political reconstruction, nor no resora-
