The Negro and COOIie Races
Compared.

The Rev. Charles Kingsley thus
compares the negro with the Coolie
races, AS experienced by him during
a recent visit to Trinidad:
We saw almost daily proofs of the
COOliemen's fOndness for their chill
dren; of their fondness, also-an ex-
cellent sign that the morale is not de-
strOyed at the TOot-tOr dumb ami
mails. A COOlie, Tow or donkey is
petted, led about tsndenly, tempted
with tit-bits; pet animals, where thew
can be got, are the Coolies delight. As
they are the delight of the wild In
dian. / wish l could say the anne of
the negro. His treatment of his chill
dren and Of the beasts of burden is. but
too often, as exactly opposed to that
OF the COOlie As are his manners. No
wonder that the two races did moi. and
1T IS to be feared never will amaIga-
mate; thatthe COOlie, shocked by the
unfortunate awkwardness of gesture
and vulgarity of manners Ofthe average
negro, and stills more of the negress.
looks on them as savages; while the
negro, in his turn, hates the Coolie as
a hard-wOrking interlOper. and des-
piSes him as a heather: or that
fights between the two races
arise now and then, in which the
in spite of his slender limbs
has generally the advantage over the
burly negro, by dint of his greater
courage and terrible quickness.

Save It..

Mr.. Spinner, the Treasurer of the
United States, one of the most devoted
friends of the national bank system.
In a secret letter admits that the de
nIal OF the right to issue paper money
by the national bank, and in lieu
thereof the issuance of the paper cur
rency by the Government itself, would
save TO the people ssin interest from
twenty to thirty millions of dol
bars in interest annually" Twenty
TO thirty millions Of dollars in interest
annually is a very large amount to
save to the people OF this heavily
taxed country. 1t is the last feather
that breaks the camel's back. So
every feather that is removed from
the Over-burdened camel will be of
more relief to him than the same
number Of pounds when he il not
suffering from an unusual weight.
But it is not in this respect
alone that the change from National
Bank currency to greenbacks will be
a relief to the people. The National
Banks, the railroads and bond holders
have the nation by the throat, and
everything that can be said or done to
loosen the grip will be a public benefit.
They to-day control the legislation of
Congress, vote away the public lands
and the public funds regardless of the
interests of the tax-papers, disturb the
popular repose Ikea nightmare, make
trade, commerce, agriculture, and
manufactures, feverish and uncertain.
Hence, for more than one reason,
we insist that the twenty to thirty
millions of dollars in interest spoken
Of by MI. Spinner should be saved to
the people.

AN article appeared in the APPEAI

our present, so called, Executive Com
mittee. The article was signed by the
author, who is gentleman and lawyer

either the Invitation or knowledge Of
the senior editor of the APPEAL.

demand an attack upon the APPEAL

AS the Radical politicians Of this
district are not fully able to take care
Of themselves, our Congressional mas
tiers have sent on Dave Num- to ma
nipulate matters hereabouts. He has
bounced down vigorously, commence
ing his operations at Jackson. We
learn by the grapevine line, which is
occasionally inrunning order between
Jackson and Memphis, that the pro-
gramme originated in Washington
will be fully carried out. Num- has
had a free consultation with Milton
Brown, and they have fully agreed on
the terms. Brown is to hoist the sin
dependent" flag, and all the Radicals,
Loyal Leagues and negroes, fully dis
ciplined, armed and equipped, are to
come suddenly to his support just at
the nick OF time, and put him through
as it was expected to do in our
late judicial election in the cases OF
Ayres and Bullock. Mum and Brown
are already counting their chicks, and
licking their chops over the victory
in prospect. What will our neighbor
of the AUdLGache do in this distress
ingly gloomy view of the case? The
new combination lays Kellar out
" fiat of his back" and we cannot do
less than come in to eondOle with him
on the subject. We tell him it is the
best of good luck to escape the seat
which Winfield Jerusalem has dis
graced. We congratulate him on his
escape from a fall so low from the ed
itOrial chair, and rejoice with him for
the honor of the cloth. Little Bobby
Walker once said that he considered
the position of leading editor
of a great, leading daily paper,
like the Herald which he mentioned,
superior to that of President of the
United States. And why is not the
editorshipof the 4Udldplche a prefera-
BILE position to that of member of Con-
gress? The power of making a Con-
gresham is greater than that of him
who performs the official duties of
such an Office. AS Milton is rather
cold, old fogy and played out, if KEEL
lar can now galvanize him and make
him the worthy successor of the great
Jerusalem, it will be an achievement
for Immortality, which no mere pos
session of office can assure. All in
all, we really do candidly think and
in confidence whisper to him he is
not hurt much, and 50 we hope he
will take consolation. As for Milton,
we now know whom we have to fight;
and for lending himself TO the worst
foes the South ever had, weshalI give
him the most thorough thrashing ever
received by any political fossil.

TESTIMONIALS:
MADISON, Ala, May 9, 1871.
DEAR SIR: Permit me to eulOgiss your
wells of water. for with honest motives I do
so. l have recently been convinced of its
superior medical virtues, in the relief ar
fOrded Mr.. Jared Doolittle, who was a ease OF
mine in conjunction with DR.. Dement,, Of
huntsville, for twelve months before going
TO your Wells, suffering with Brights old
Disease of the Kidneys, a disease that is
scarcely, if ever, relieved by the aid OF med
zeal treatment, thereby producing general
Dropsy of the most formidable character.
1 had responded OF his ever being relieved,
| when, to my establishment, in a very short
time, by the use OF the water of your wells.
he has been placed again on his feet, and is
now able, to some extent, to prosecute his
daily avecatiOn. L feel no hesitancy, but
would urge upon patients suffering SINH
lariy, TO visit at once your Wells, as being
the surest means OF Iegaining their health
and yigor. GEORGE SULLIVAN, Md.

regard 10 the curative properties Of the
HUNTSVILLE, ALA, September 5, 1866.
DEAR SIR; 1 had not known the luxury OF
months when L reached the Wells. 1 suE
fered much rom thai common. but terrible
disease, Dyspepsia. Before a week elapsed
my appetite was voTaclous, and my diges-
tiOn equal to my appetite. Ny father was
suffering from Dropsy and Chronic Diar-
rhes- IN three weeks he was entirely re-
neved from the latter, and almost nom the
former. I am satisfied by experience and
observation that the water has extraordin-
airy curative properties in DYSPEPSIA, DrOpsy
and diseases OF the bowels. 1t is also more
palitable, and much colder than most min
eral waters. 1 believe it possesses as much
virtue as any mineral water in this country,
and time wall prove Ii. &C. CLAY, JR.
HUNTsvILLE, ALA, July 10. 1866.
SIR: I feel pleasure in giving a certificate !
to the effect that your watering place has
been of great benefit to myself the short
time 1 stayed there. My complaint was |
Chronic Jaundiee which was fast resolving I
itself into DrOPsy. When 1 came to your
Wells my condition was truly sad, and my
hops of so early an eradication OF so long
seated a distember was forlorn. Your waters
have certainly wonderful curative powers. !
To all who have DfOpsy, Chronic Dlarrhea,
Dyspepsia or Kidney complaints, j chserfutiy
recommend your Wells, believing at the
same time in their efficacy in other diseases.
