The Negroes at Hope Fur
nnnR-


We are informed that when the
negroes arrived at Hope Furnace,
of which we spoke a short time ago,
all had revolver strapped to his
side and the negro boss had two
revolvers fastened to his honorable
body. When asked to explain that
military movement, they said they
were armed to protect themselves in
case white men should attempt to
drive them off. They say they in
tend to leave MS soon as the railroad
upon which they are at work, is
completed from the NJ. & G, r. r.
to the Furnace. They came from
Athens county, and are employed by
Gould & Greene, contractors, Of
Athens county. 1t is said that a
notice was posted up at Hope Sta.
ton stating that White men shall
rule the place. Very appropriate
notice. This country belongs tc
white men, and white men improv
ed it, and should enjoy the benefit
Of it in every way. This is no time
to bring Africans here to drive Irish
Germans, and American laborers
out of employment.

TIE other day General Rose.
Grams was on the floor of the
House, and while talking with
some of his old soldiers, a per-
son in the gallery ran over the
list of members to see how
many there were who had serv-
ed under the General. 1t is
doubtful whether any other
commander can find as many Of
his officers in Congress. There
is in the House, Garfield, his
Chief of Staff ; Slocum, who
commanded a corps ; Negley
and Morgan, divisions Beatty,
Coburn and Shanks, brigades,
and Asper, Dyer, Benjamin,
Burdett, Witcher, Barnes and
Stokes, each a regiment. In
the Senate, Warner and Harris
were at one time under Rose
Grams.

cotton, besides an abundance OF
corn and stock, was produced
in the four northwest parishes
of Louisiana. That amount OF
cotton at prices now ruling
would bring $l8,0O0,OOO in
gold. Nearly all of this mag
nificent region Of country is
now at the mercy of the Missis-
sippi river. A few narrow
strips of front are partially pro.
tected, but nearly the whole
area is liable to be inundated
from the crevasses now open at
Ashton and Diamond bends
If an efficient system Of protec
tion could be had against the
depredations Of the river, it is
believed that in four years the
four parishes of Carroll, Madi-
son, Tensas and ConcordiO
would make more cotton than
at any time before the war.

How StOD a Paper.

The following from one Of our cX.
changes, so fully and clearly cX-
presses our views upon the subject
that we copy it withoutcomment;
"You have an undoubted right to
stop q newspaper whenever you are
disposed, upon payment of all ar
rcarages. Do not. hesitate to do SO
on account of any tenderness Of
feeling" for the editor, Don't you
suppose he would stop buying su-
gar of you, or meat, clothing, dry
goods, etc, ifhc thought he was not
gotting his moneys worth? And
wheu you discontinue paper do so
manfulIy, Don't be so pitiful as TO
throw it back to the postmaster
with contcmptious II don't want
ii any longer! and have refused
written on the margin, and have
the paper returned TO the editor
No gentleman ever stopped paper
in that way no matter if bis head is
covered with gray hair that should
be honorable, If you do not wish
longer to rcceiIe newspaper, write
note the editor like n man saying
So and be sure that the arrearages
are paid, This is the way to stopa
newspaper"

Hon. ID. j. CalIen for Con-
GreSS.

Nothing could please us bet
ter than to learn that the name
ofouryoung friend, Hon. d. j,
Callcn, the Irish Orator of
Mercer county, who made,
during the two last campaigns,
a number Of able and appropri-
ate speeches in Vinton county,
will be presented for nomina,
ton to the Congressional Con
vention which will soon assem-.
bic in lis district. Now, we
do not like TO interfere OF take
part in the nominations outside
of our own district, but we
wish to say that Mr.. Callen is
good man on general princi-
pies; upright and honesty and
possessing an irreproachable
character is a thorough Dem
ocrat at all times, and an earn
est worker in the glorious cause,
has the backbone to stand firm
in maintaining the right against
the opposition; is good law
yer, having natural talent, and
since lie became a member Of
the Ohio Legislature, he has
proved himself to be not only a
ready debater but one Of the
first of Legislators. The nomi-
mating convention of his county
met q few days ago, and we no.
tico that it passed unanimously
a resolution recommending him
as the choice Of the Democracy
of the county to represent the
5th district in the next Con-
gress. We are sure that the
counties composing the district
can not make a better selection.

The Jackson Standard thinks
that John t. Wilson, member
Of Congress, from this poverty
stricken district, had better re-
tire. As the Standard and
Wilson are both loyal we are
unable to see why one should
object to the other. We are
sure the people Of the district
want an honest Representative
they have had a mis.repre-
sentative until they are taxed
beyond endurance. Wilson's
property is in bonds and is
not taxed. The poor people
in this district own property
that is taxed heavily by the
Mongrel Administration. He
pays no taxes on his bonded
property and holds office; the
people pay the taxes on their
property and the interest on
his bonds. Is this why the
Standard wants him cast aside?
