Editor Enquirer -Southerner:
Every true son of North Carolina re-
ioices at the grand results of your recent
election, and it is to be hoped that the glory
of the victory will not be marred by acts
of thoughtlessness and passion. Success,
in these days, is too frequently insulted by
rashness and our people are the last in the
world who ought to move in any direction
until they have weighed the step faithfully
and fully considered not only the imme-
diate but the probably results that might
arise bv their taking it. Reared in q warm
climate and educated under a sun that
Unmarried to their natures quick resentment
and action, it well becomes themEtO guard,
with jealous care, every act and expires
sion. They can be cautious, prudent and
wise without being political on any other
kind of towards. By nature they are
brave and chivalrous, and never was there
| a time when these noble features can con-
duce more to make their state the s. bright
est star in our constellation" Magnanim-
ity possesses more power over the con-
uuered than terror. One overcomes en-
tirely and creates love, while the other
crushes only for time, for those who
have been humbled by power, despotic or
otherwise, remain only SO long as that
power can keep them from rising. The
uniustly oppressed, when offered or Sc
cured relief, are the most violent of beings,
and blood too frequently marks the path
they choose, as they stride again into pow
er. Many entertain and may forever cher,
ish feelings of bitter enmity against the
negroes of the South, while in my opinion
they should pity their ignorance, pardon
their judgments and endeavor to guide
them Alright. When we consider and con
, denim their present acts and faults We
oucht also to think of their faithfulnes
, ard peacefulness during the war when a
any time they could have risen and mad
desolate thousands of homes, instead o
E raising and producing provisions for on
: support while we were fighting for on
freedom and their slavery. BY prOpe
legislation and conducting of affairs it wi
not require very great length Of time t
0 convince the negro that his rights are saf
= in the hands of Southern men. Thousand
:, are already convinced that the Radicf
party does not intend to aid them at tn
:. sacrifice of its power, worth and prudenc
y will soon satisfy the balance. The legi:
Y lature SnOulu pass SuCH dCCs as VIII Ut nee
4 essary to inforce due respect for the veste
-. rights of every citizen of the State an
L above all things it should compel the execu
y ton of the law that makes it penalty
e. carry concealed weapons. BY doing til
the spirit of riot will be completely crusl
ed, for only armed towards incite insure
lg tons and riots.
70 The action of our people and legislatu
will be eagerly watched by the RAIDS
B. the North and every imprudent act OF wo
t. will be made mountain of and parad
d to make political capital of.
b. We have proved ourselves brave al
u won the admiration of mankind, nc
to let be magnanimous and win the love a
of gratitude of our children and generatio
)n unborn. B.

THE BOND.-Not Judge Bond nor the
bond of matrimony, but the all-pervading,
all-absorbing Sheriff's, Clerks and Regis
ter's bond. Messrs. McCabe, Duggan and
Cobb, noble Civil Fighters and followers of
Butler, have been elected by the colored
people of this county to these important
positions and, now that the campaign is
over, are busy electioneering with the
whites 10 enable them to complete their
victory. 1t is said that one or two of these
officials elect profess to have made all ar
rangements and are perfectly sanguine
about giving their bonds on the first Mon
day in September, but we cannot yet be-
lievc that the white people of Edgecombe
| can be so untrue to themselves as to aid tC
Office men of such political sentiments
No personal friendship ought to justify
one in signing the bond of Civil RICHTER
White people, the negroes of this county
have arrayed themselves almost solidl,
against you, be true to your race and stant
to your color. North Carolina SAYS Radi
calism must die, will Edgecombe, count,
that has suffered 50 much from its curse

GRAs HOPPERs. The Raleigh News
speaks Of the Grasshoppers destroying the
cotton i'll this county. We have no idea
where the News gets this information, but
think it is in error. Always see, my friend,

you allow it to 90 into the columns of your
valuable paper.

\ QUERY.-It is generally reported that
Allen Turner, colored, is to be appointed
jailor when Mr.. Joseph Cobb, Sheriff elect,
assumes the duties of that office. We
have reliable proof at hand that Allen Tur-
ner is common criminal, and we ask Mr..
Cobb if he will place in the responsible po-
stion of jailor, man convicted of theft al
the Superior Court of Northampton coun-
ty?
Gen. Cox, the Solicitor for that district,
informs us that he prosecuted and convic
ted this self-same Individual, under the
alias Allen Green, of hog stealing from {
colored man in the above mentioned coun
ty.
We trust Mr.. Cobb will not impose up
on the decency of the county by appoint
ing thief jailor.

CANNoN-A most worthy and patriotic
gentleman of our town desiring to duly
celebrate the great victory over radicalism
g. e. dishonesty, miscegenation. &c., af-
ter telegraphing to several places and not
being able to procure a cannon, determined
to buy small one. He wrote to founder
on the subject, and the other day received
the gratifying intelligence that he could get
one for somewhat over S11O0. Mr.. -
thought e would take-not more than

by an execution. Let them look out

COMPLIMENT To THE PREss.-The Rev.
W. G. Starr, in sermon delivered at the
CRANKY street Methodist Episcopal Church,
last Sunday night, says the Norfolk Nir-
ginian, paid the following just and descrv-
ed compliment to the press;
eve live in an age of light. Darkness
may live for time under craven roof, but
there she cannot dwell forever. The nigh
ty voice of the people will be heard, and
the people are shouting for light. The pul
pit gives her imperial answer every Sab
bath the press rings the echo back through
all the year, The newspaper reaches tht
man who never enters the sanctuary
Give to any land the freedom of the press
and you bring the very sun out of the SKY
to kindle the light of truth in that land
The wrong may be hidden for awhile, bu
the press will unearth it. The foot of The
criminal may be fleet, and the barrier be
hind him strong, but the hand of the pres
will drag him from his retreat among th'
rocks and scourge him to the scaffold il
the presence of all the people. Yes, say
thank God for the liberty of the press.

wrong in speaking of his failure to arrest
an obstreperous man on the street week
or ten days ago. He says it was not his

is great fault in our police system. II

We all consider Iron the embodiment of
strength and power, but how few are aware
that it is this same element in the system
that gives US strength and vigor, and that an
insuficiency of it causes weakness and de-
bility. The Peruvian Syrup, protoxide of
iron, is prepared expressly to supply this
vitalizing element.

THE POoR HOUsE.-A recent visit of a
gentleman to the Poor House reports the
condition of that establishment, under the
control of DR.. W. A. Duggan, as very
good. The premises are neatly kept and
the Supervisors control seems to be atten-
tive and humane. The DR.. had better de-
voted himself to this work, which seems to
suit him, than adopting the Civil Rights
and entering the political field as cham
piOn against the white man.

right to make us apologize, but as some of

an extent that it would not think we would
neglect an important duty of a citizen
