BEARLNq FRUIT

By permission of our esteemed fell
low-citizen, Mr.. j. NJ. PRovINE,
we are able to lay before our readers
the following extract from a letter to
him, written by w. w. and J.. s.
PRovINE, lawyers, of Macomb, ILL.,,
who were present at our Commercial
Convention as the Representatives of
that State:
Had a very pleasant trip and are much
pleased that we visited your city. We
will remember, with pleasure, the kind
ness and friendship of the people with
whom we became acquainted, particu-
larly yourself and family, and hope some
time to be able to reciprocate. A visit of
that kind among the Southern people dis
sipates many p%rejudices, and affords a
much more correct knowledge of the real
situation and feeling of the people than is
possible to obtain from the people either
North or South. We will do what little
may be in our power toward correcting
wrong impressions and turning the atten-
ton of those contemplating a change of
place in that direction.
This is only one of many express
ions of good viii that have reached
us from the North, by private hand
expressions that evidence to lis the
disposition of men of ability and re-
spectability, from that section, to do
us justice, and speakofu us fairly as they
find us. On the principle that a little
leaven ~leaveneth the whole lump,
have we not reason to believe that
Northernsmen, like those who partici-
pated in our Convention, will be the
means of dissipating the wrong i'm
pressiOns that Northern people have
of us, induced by politicians and kept
alive by q red-hot partisan press; and
that ere long we shall have an era
of good feeling, of good neighborhoOd,
of kindly and social spirit such as
should exist between the States as a
bond and guarantee of the Union upon
which the stability Of our Govern
ment rests? We think so. The ex-
tracts we have given from the New
York Herald, from the Commander
of Post 10 of the G. A. R., from Chief
Justice CHASE, and Col. SHERIDAN,
all testify that the clouds of prejudice
are lifting, slowly, to be sure, but
none the less certainly, and that men
are beginning to realize that nothing
else has ever stood between us and a
glorious career. We regard this letter
as an evidence that our Commercial
Convention is bearing good fruit.

THE Charleston papers announce
the death of DIR. JAMES MoULTRIE,
for many years a professor of physi-
ology in the South Carolina Medical
College, and one of the most learned
physicians in the United States. He
was born at Charleston in February,
1872, and rose to distinction at an
early age, his ripe scholarship and
acute judgment being universally
known. When the enterprise of start
ing the Medical College of South Caro-
lima was first undertaken, he was as
ISOLATED with Drs. DICKSON, FROST
and GIDDINGs in that institution as
Professor Of Physiology, occupying
that chair for more than thirty years.
He published a treatise on the func-
tiOns of the lymphaties and absorb
ents, also several pamphlets on other
scientific subjects, among them an
elaborate paper on the general and
systematic circulation, which won dis
tinction in the profession. DR.. MoUL-
TRIE also held once or twice the posi-
ton of President of the American
Medical Association. He was also an
active member of several scientific
and literary societies.

THE EreniHg Post, of this city, yes
terday published a statement signed
by Woodbury." denying the charges
which appeared in these columns
against UPHAM, who commanded the
gang of murderers and thieves who
deprecated so long upon the property
and lives of the people of Crittenden
county, Ark. We hold ourselves res
pOnsible for the publication of facts
that have been proven to our satisfac-
ton and win be to the satisfaction of
the general public, if ever law and JUS
tice are permitted sway in Arkansas.
There was not one word, in reference to
UPHAM and his gang, published in the
APPEAL that is not true, and we defy
any successful refutation of it. Up
HAM stands charged with theft and
murder in Arkansas, and one of these
days viii have to answer for both.
We repeat all we have said of him
and defy successful contradiction.

out ON a large enough scale, will restore

The people of the South are pre-
pared to guarantee to laborers from
any country ready and remunerative
employment, and kind treatment.
Thepoint made by G. W. i. as against
our rice is not a good one, for it is a
fact that the small rice of Southern

best, we BELIEVES kept at home,
whilst the larger and more snowy ar

cracy of Californians to believe that
theirs is the only country in the
woodland it is quite a respectable
spot-but when theyundertake to COM
pare it to one of our great States OF
the South they overshOOt the mark.
If so, 900 Chinese can find employ

rious occupations of miners, day Ia

we have to offer is by the year. The
security we offer is the great staple,

We have the only cotton country
proper in the world; we have rich
lands, improved and ready for the
plow; we have men who are
skilled in the cultivation of all our
crops, and who can and have been ac-
customed to organize and employ

THE MILITIA IN CLARKS

VILE.
Owing to the fears of one j. JAY
BUCK, of GAINESVILLE, that pleasant
town is now the theater of operations
for the militia, still employed by Coy.
SENTER, notwithstandi9AShe State is
on the verge of bankruptcy, without
a dollar in the treasury to meet the
July interest, or defray the ordinary
expenses Of the government. Buck
says, in a note to the GAINESVILLE Pa
triot, which he intends as an apology
for his mischief:
That no mistake may be made l take
this occasion TO say that 1 telegraphed for
them md thew came. | deemed that /
acted prudently. My sole motive was to
avoid the burning of the town. If my
course is regarded improper 1 will not
again interfere.
This is all very well for Mr.. Buck,
but it will hardly make up to the
people of GAINESVILLE for what they
will lose by his indiscretion. If he
had any just grounds to %apprehend
the burning of the town he should
have communicated them to leading
citizens, and taken counsel withthem
before saddling the town with the
curse and incubus of the militia. He.
certainly did not fear that the Demo-
Gratis and Conservatives, who own all
the realty in GAINESVILLE, were gOingto
burn down their own property. That
he viii not say. If there was any
foundation, then, for his scare it must
have originated in the ranks of the
party with whom heacts, and who are
responsible to-day for all the trouble
upon which the existence ofthe militia
is based. If Buck meant well by the
people of GAINESVILLE, instead of writ
ing a note to apologize for his betrayal
of them into the hands of such a crew
he would have united with those who
acted with him and requested the
Governor to countermand the order
by which the militia were transferred
from Nashville to GAINESVILLE. One
were as easily done as the other.
Bucks failure in this particular
robs his repentant card of all its virtue
and affords the people of GAINESVILLE
fresh occasion for an o%utpOuring of
their contempt for him and their in
dignation at the treatment to which
through him they are subjected by the
presence of the militia.

THE important case of WALLACE
VS.. WILLIAMS came up for a hearing
in the Circuit Court yesterday, but,
the writ being defective, proceedings
were quashed. A new writ was,
however, issued, and an order re-
straining WILLIAMS from making re-
turns as to the election of Criminal
Judge. The case will be finally dis
posed of on the 18th inst, and we
have nc doubt to the satisfaction of
MI. WALLACE, his friends, and the
Democratic party. See fourth page

The Nashville Press and Times
(SToKEs' Radical Organ) thus c~onfesses
to the deplOrable financial condition
of our State. 1t says:
"Out of the eleven hundred thousand
dollars interest to be provided for, the rail
roads ought to pay something oyer eight
hundred thousand dollars. Inst iOfthis
they provide about half that sum. The
militia viii cost the State about two hum
dred thousand dollars. OF this sum fifty
thousand has been borrowed in New
York. The taxes this year will not bring
any money into the treasury until after
the July interest is due, so that some
heavy borrowing will have to be done if
the July interest is to be paid in time.
The schools have taken over -four hundred
thousand dollars since August last. The
current expenses of the Government will
'absor b asSmuch and perhaps more than
can be raised from taxes up to fall"

SENTER FOR E~NFRANGHJSE-
HENT

We publish this morning a special
dispatch from Nashville reporting the
fact that SENTER, in a speech at the
Stokes meeting, held yesterday, an
nounced himself in favor of the en-
reimbursement of every citizen in Ten
nessee. He was bitterly personal upon
STOKES, thus setting at restany doubts
that he would continue the race. The
issue is definitely made up. SENTER,
the Republican, opposes STOKES, the
Radical.

AT a recent meeting of women in
Boston, the following pointed resOlu-
ton was adopted:
ReSOIUed, That the white women and
girls who to-day give a long and hard
days work for twenty-five cents in cur
rency are quite as much the object of
Christian and benevolent sympathy as
were the negro slave women of the South
ern rice swamps.
That's the gospel we have been
preaching at the South ever since the
first Exeter Hall a%bolitioniSt made his
appearance. But it don't have any
effect. There is a peculiar charm in a
blackski for your modern %philanthro-
pists, and so long as it exists they
will be blind to the wrongs of white
women,

graves oblivion of past differences, and

endeavor to assure the honor and welfare

SCHOOL FUNDING WITH A
VEVGEANCE L

Under this head the Nashville Press
and Times of Friday, says that "the
Superintendent of Stewart county has
received from the State Treasury the
snug sum Of 800 for services rem
dered~(?) The children of the same
county have received nothing. We
gather these facts from the books in
the COmptroller's Office, which, being
public property, are open to public in
sp%ection." This is school funding
with a vengeance. No wonder the
Treasury is depleted, and our State
credit below par.
