WHAT THE SOUTH WANTS.

The Northern press frequent
lily assert and many of the
Southern press as frequently
! repeat, that all the South needs
at present is an infusion of
Northern energy and pluck.
With such an introduction of
the Northern element into the
mercantile, gricultural, manu-
featuring and financial circles
of the South, it is claimed that
all Of these various interests
would be invigorated with a
new life, &c. The South needs
capital; and unless the immi-
grafton Of energetic and indus
trious men from the North
brings capital with it, the most
indomitably energetic North
erner can effect no more here,
that can be effected by the
Southern man in similar cir
cumstances. The Southern
people are as energetic as the
embarrassment under which
they are suffering will permit
them to be. Factories would
be built, mines would he open
ed, the iron rail would be laid
if energy and industry were all
the South required.
But, however tough the hand,
or ready the arm, the Mouth
will starve unless the labor of
that hand and arm is paid. In
every public meeting, which
has the internal improvement
of the South as its object, the
question where is the capital
coming from 2 is one which
any number of resolutions can
not decide. Every effort made
by private companies is dis
heartened by that fatal an
nouncement, it will cost so
much Y and if public corpora
tons. and private companies,
have to suspend work for want
Of funds, it is hard to see how
any amount Of individual ener-
gy and pluck, from any part OF
the country, can accomplish
anything. Capital is what the
South wants. Let money send
it's warm blood through the
Southern body, and the South
ern arms will work as long, as
any Northern hands or arms
can work. Lynch, Rep.

act of Congress by which this
State government was crushed
out and a military government
created in it's stead was null
and void, as being unconstitu-
tional, an act of sheer usurpa-
ton and wanton violence which
cannot be defended. Such is
the sentence pronounced on the
legislation of Congress byJudge
Chase, and we cannot doubt
that every Judge of the United
States Supreme Court would
concur in this judgment. The
recognition of the proceedings
by which this State government
of Virginia was created is COM
plete and conclusive every day
that the names of the Senators
and Members from West Vir-
ginia are called in Congress-.

Hon. Jacob Thompson.

It would not be difficult to
collect a volume of letters,
speeches, and addresses, deliv-
cred in the South by the more
distinguished Southern seces-
sionists on the occasion of their
return home, since the end of
the great civil war
These, though often exhi-
biting evidences Of the ability
that had secured the promi-
nence of the speakers, were
sometimes unwise in the poll
cies advised. A few were ut
tered in the unrehecting Ian
guage of passion. Such of
course, served to keep alive
fanatical enmity at the North.
They contributed largely to
aid the purpose of an insatiate
party necessity, which admit
ted of no scruples, whether of
truth, of wise patriotism, or Of
constitutional obligation.
But the causes, or the pre-
,tence Of causes, tojustify fright
full wrongs in the South we
trust have finally passed away.
To illustrate what is I'M
doubtedly the dominant feel
ing in the South, we present
to- day the speech Of Hon. ia
cob Thompson, which cannot
fail to command attention for
it's excellence, whether in the
regard of its sound philosophy,
manly dignity and calm tenn
per, or for the interesting man
ner of it's relation. ..a

THE DOGS OF CONSTANTLY.
NOPEE.

The condition of the streets
would be worse were it not for
the dogs, the unpaid scavengers
of Constantinople. I don't
know how many there are in
the city, but L have counted
six-and-twenty Of these owner
less quadrupeds within space
\ of fifty square yards, all lying
motionless and stretched as if
dead beneath the midday sun.
There are very few vehicles in
the streets Of the city, or they
would be more often killed.
Very many people give them a
knock in passing, which must
be cruelty hard to disturb their
sleep, but | never saw any one
of them return the incivility
with bite, or even dare to
growl. They seem quite to
understand that neither men
nor horses will tread on them,
and for the unkind familiarity
Of a kick or a tap with a stick
they don't seem to care. They
slumber on, often surrounded
and dragged by six or seven
puppies, until the sun falls, and
soon afterwards the streets are
their own. 1t is not very safe
to walk in the narrow ways of
Constantinople by night, for
much of the refuse of the house
is thrown out of the upper win
dows in the dark. hours, when
the dogs gallop joyfully to-
wards the sound failing food,
which is to be avoided by foot
passengers. They yelp, and
bark, and wrangle, over their
supplies without the least re-
gard for sleeping people, but
they clear the streets of a great
deal of garbage, in considera-
ton of which public service
they are allowed to multiply
and possess them in numbers
limited only by canine acct
dents, plague and starvation.
They are all of very equal size,
of wolfish aspect, and, while
the majority are of a foxy yell
low color, there are some in
! which the yellow is tinged
with black; but l never saw
one of the street dogs that had
not some yellow in his coat.
They say that these dogs have
an organization among them
selves which limits each to a
certain district. A young
Greek told us that he was in
the streets one night, when
some dogs followed him, bark
ing horribly, until suddenly it
seemed that they passed the
boundary of their quarter, and

Meeting i'm HenriG O.

At a called meeting Of Re
publicans of Henrico county,
held at Carbon Hill, May IL,
1869, the following preamble
and resolutions were adopted
without a dissenting voice
Whereas, we believe that the
time has come for all men to
live in peace and happiness to-
gether, without strife, dissen-
sion and malice being held at a
premium and, whereas, we
believe that such a state of
peace cannot be brought about
by the election Of total strang-
ers to high positions in this
State, and ignoring the rights
of citizens who have their all
invested here at home there
fore, be it
Resolved, That we, q portion
of Republicans of Henrico coun-
ty, hereby declare our intention
to support Gilbert G. Walker
for Governor, instead of Hon
Fl. H. Wells, who, we believe,
has no intention of doing JUS
tice for colored men, and should
we be mistaken in the policy Of
Gilbert G. Walker, we cannot
be any worse off in his election
than we would be in the cleo
ton of Hon. HI. II. Wells.

MEETING IN HANOVER.

At a called meeting of Repub.
licans held at brakes farm;
Hanover county, Virginia, May
10th, 1859, the following pre-
amble and resolutions were
unanimously adopted
Whereas, it has come to our
knowledge that our nominee
for Governor, H. II. Wells, has
deserted the Petersburg plat
form, upon which he was nomi-
mated, by declaring himself in
favor of having the Constitution
submitted with certain portions
voted upon separately =; and,
whereas, we believe the inten-
tons of the said II. Fl. Wells
to be- governed solely by poll
teal purposes therefore, be
it
Resolved, That we hereby de-
clare Jnat, lnasmucn as our
nominee has deserted his form
er principles, and the platform
of his supporters, we, a portion
of the voters of Hanover coun-
ty, are free to support any man
for Governor whom we think
proper.
Resolved, That we believe
that Gilbert G. Walker is more
honest in intention and more
firm in principle than our form
er candidate, and deem it our
duty, in justice to ourselves, to
support him. A+-

peoples, he says: AT no time
was I tempted to change my
nationality this country is
my birthright, and by no act
Of mine did l wish to forfeit
I it,
! Again, in respect of policy =,
he quotes the example Of
King David, who whilst his
child was sick nigh to death
prayed, tasted, and mourned
in sackcloth and ashes ; but
when it was dead, he washed
himself and put ON gay cloth
ing, and appeared to his after
dants with a cheerful counte-
nance. So top says Mr. Thomp-
son, should the Southern peo-
|ple carry themselves at the
present date.
Now that it is over let us
meet 'the actualities of life
with brave cheerful, and man
ly heart, submitting to the
inevitable, and exerting our
selves with energy &c.
There are those who profess
to believe that in a war with
England or France, or both,
the South would join them. It
answers the purpose so to say
of those who hold power from
the North by cultivating hatred
of the South. .-..
But what says Mr.. Thomp-
son? In the late war the
power OF arms decided that we
should remain one people, now
and forever. The God of bat
ties decided the case in favor
of Union. The true Christian
must justify the ways Of God
to man, and therefore say it
was wisest and best it should
be so decided. A duty, then,
devolves on every man, and he
is bound to contribute his mite
to make this people great, hap
Ply, and glorious. This is, in
fact, the true voice Of the
South. His words were hailed
with joy. They were words of
an old and true man of the
South.

EMITTING THE SCARF"

A sly little maiden sits by me Tonight,
Softly humming an old tune low;
The bright threads fash through her fin
gers white,
As she guideth the needle to and fro.
Sweet is che song that the maiden sing
Sad to my heart are the thoughts it bring
eth;
Dreams that were buried SO long ago,
Under the snow-under the snow.
Little the maiden knoweth of this,
Weaving the bright threads in the whilej
Her thoughts are weaving dream of bliss,
And the red lips part in sweet hall
smile,
As her happiness in with each stitch she
twineth, -
And the light in the luminous eyes that
shineth
Under the lid grow tender and dim,
Thinking of him-thinking of him.
Thus the needle beareth double thread,
As daintily in and out it flies,
And the conscious blood in her cheek CLOVIS
Meath the smile of her steady eyes.
Shake down the cloud of thy brown hairs
glory,
Lest thy bushes should tell the story
That was old when the Eden skies were
blue, 4
Yet ever is new--ever is new. .e.
So blushing and shily the maiden sings,
Knitting the scarf for her absent lover;
And methinks two angels with golde q
wings
Softly round the maiden hover.
Heaven grant that the hopes thou art weav.
ing
Leave no room in thy heart for grieving;
CANCELS keep thee" softly pray,
Turning away-turning away.

CAPITAL Stock $50, ,0OO.-O Organized Seoten,.
Der 10th, 1868.-The above company was or
ganized for the purpose Of bringing before
the world CON pound which was found in
obscurity. The stockholders having seen
for some time past the great efficacy and al
most universal power OF this medicine over
any form OF the following diseases, came for
ward and furnished the necessary capital to
bring il before the world, embued not only
with the sanguine hope but with the expert
mental knowledge that 1t must speedily gu
percede all remedies for those diseases, and
supply the great and increasing necessity
which suffering humanity has long since de-
manded, but looked for in vain. The diseases
referred to are coughs, colds, whooping
cough, bronchitis, catarTh, asthma and con.
sumption. II is natural impulse of the
heart that when we see in every periodical
throughout the land, remedies recommended
to cure all diseases that We are afflicted with,
that the motive is not so much TO benefit the
afflicted as it is 10 enhance the interests of
the venders OF those medicines. We regret
to say that such an impulse Ia too well found
ed This misfortune tends TO operate against
truly valuable medicine, but time will over
come this prejudice and place each remedy
In that position that it's merits demands.
From every part of the country we are re-
ceiving stacks ofletters, saying, in a hun
ueu ulHerenJ IOTlnb' 1Our mouiClne meets
the great demand of the Age, and we sell
more OF your preparation than all other
cough remedies combined. The demand ia
becoming 30 great that we are daily increas-
ing our factlities for as YDanufootTe. To
meet the demands Of those who cannot pro-
cure the medicine of druggists in their vi
cinity we offer to send to any address in the
United States, enclosing us $500. six dollar
bottles, and if the me iicine does not give all
the satisfaction weslsi m in our circulars ac-
companying each bottle, wo will cheerfully
refund the money. We are compelled, as
thirty days, but we will continue to send out
to new druggists, who have not sold our
medicine before, small stock on commits
sion, providing, always, that they take the
necessary pains to sell it to their customers.
