hereafter. Of one thing / am convinced,
and that is that the Northern people are
determined not to recede one step from the
amendments, and it is therefore all folly
in US to oppose them. There is no course
left, therefore, but to advance. If we are
defeated this year, Toombs, Stephens and
Davis will be elated and strengthened.
They will be finally defeated, however, as
the South will not and can not be misled
by them. If the counsels of these men
should control however, and the Republi-
cans pursue aliberal policy it would very
much alter the situation.
GENERAL AMNESTY.
/ asked him what the effect would be in
the South if the general amnesty policy of
Senator Schurz, Harper'S Weekly and Ho-
race Greeley should be adopted. His an
swer was that if such policy were adopt
ed by the Republicans, and the old issues
of Stephens and Toombs were the issue on
the other side, it would give the Republi-
cans in the South a much stronger founda-
tion.
Though he did not and could not say so.
[ was impressed with the fact that he be-
lieved liberal Republican policy toward
the South might yet give that party great
strength in the South, for the odium of
Democracy was not yet removed and would

sisted in policy which would inevitably
keep the South PROSTATE and humiliated.
His determined opposition to the recon-
struction measures in 1867 in Georgia.
places him unequivocally with the South,
but from his antecedents he can never act
in harmony with such leaders as Stephens
and Toombs, unless forced into their fell
lowship by the drift Of political issues.
NEW ERA FOR THE SOUTH.
His recent address before the Georgia
State University and his letter explaining
it, shows Mr. Hill to favor progressive
measures looking towards a new develop
ment of his section. He favors Northern
immigration, wants schools, workshops,
and public sentiment which shall not
prescribe honest citizens for political opin-
ions or nativity.
Mr.. Hill is fluent and pleasant cOnver-
sationalist, gives one the impression of
honesty and thoroughness in all his reason
ing and convictions. He says he has
no aspirations for office, but looks solely for
the recuperation of the South and the heal
ing of all bitterness and contention, and
intends to boldly and plainly make known
his views on all these questions, this fall,
in Georgia. | do not think he will shrink
from bold fight with the bourbons, but
it remains to be seen who will triumph. l

Toombs and jeff Davis, and that he will

for further strife, and if need be, bloodshed

Tell.Tale Tomatoes.

"Where did you get them tomatoes p
asked an old Long Island farmer the Other
morning, of neighbor whose real estate
yielded a product of nil, and on which
| there was not tomato vine.
His basket was full of very fine, ripe
specimens, which the farmer thought he
recognized. 1t wasn't the first time that
suspicion of his impecunious neighbours
honesty had arisen in his mind.
"Where did you get 'em?"
Bought 'em."
"Who did you buy 'em Off"
"Bill Van Brunt, on Crow Hill"
"Ah let us look at your hands,
With his basket on his arm he held out
both hands for examination. What do
you want to lock at my hands for? There
aint nothing on to 'em."
The old farmer was washing his own
hands at the time in tin basin of rain
water, with wooden bowl of curdled
brown soft soap before him.
"No; there amt nothing on 'em that
you can see; but look a. here, set down
your basket and wash 'em. It's very cool
in, and your face and hands looks hotn
cold water, pointed to the soap dish and
relieved the bearer of his basket
The first immersion and friction of the
hands in the water let the cat out of the
bag. 1t at once turned green grew green
er and greener every second, and at length
was an intense dark green
Here, Jim," said the old farmer to his
tow-headed son, 'take in this basket and
empty it, and bring it out agin." Then
turning to his honest neighbor, he said:
"You hooked them tomatoes from my
patch not half an hour ago. Three or four
of the top ones knew in a minute. Here's
your basket! !"
If any reader of the evening Post in the
country would test this discovery of a
theft, let him pick one or two tomatoes,
separating the vines with his naked hand,
and then wash it. There is a mysterious
something about the plant, perfectly color
less, that instantly impartes the green,
which cannot be seen until water re-
moves it.-NeaU York Post.
