Enquirer -Southerner
had long letter for you, but upon
sitting it for news, found so little that
have reconsidered and concluded to con-
dense, in mercy to you and your readers.
The excitement of the election has pass
ed away and both sides have settled down
very quietly. At least it seems so now,
but our good people were a little exercised
a few days ago by reason of the news from
Mississippi. There was Immediately a
connection made between that 'rumOr of
war and sundry things that were esteemed
suspicious. For example: the negroes had
been holding secret meetings from which
even their own women were excluded, and
Tom and Dick and Harry all had heard
something very portentous of a storm-a
general uprising of the blacks to wipe US
poor pale faces clean out. have no doubt
bat some of them would like to do it, and
there are white radical fools enough to set
them on. But the time is not yet.
Crops are promising in this section, not
withstanding the cold nights which it was
feared would SO injuriously effect the cot
| ton. Financial confidence is recovering
| slowly. The saw mills are busy-improve-
ments and building are going on. Evident
ly a better day is dawning.

If Mr. Cobb means this as a threat, we hope
our people Will not be influenced by it, for
the law p1escribes the duties Of Sheriff,
and if he goes beyond them his bond may
be held responsible

SELF REsPEcT.-People of Edgecombe,
your self-respect demands that you do all
you can to prevent men who have endorsed
the Civil Rights, who have canvassed the
county and dealt in the yilest abuse against
you, who have advised the laborers of the
county not to work except for the most
ruinous wages, who have put forward low
negroes to villify decent white people,
from holding offices of honor and trust in
your county. You can do it if you will
not sign the bonds of Cobb, McCabe or
Duggan.

THE MARKET HoUsE-Our attention has
been called to certain irregularities about
the Market house that demand the atten-
ton of the police 1t is said that it has
become such place for lettering idlers,
and such low and indecent conversations
are so often carried on about it, that it is
extremely disagreeable for a gentleman to
attend it, much less a lady. The town
authorities should see that one of the po-
lice is at the market house every day until
eleven o'clock that he may see that every
thing is properly conducted.

THE HAIL.-The cotton in the Bethel
region, that was SO much injured by hail,
presents very delusive appearance. A
gentleman has placed a stalk upon our

be so late that but little, if any, can ma
ture before frost.
