OUR RESOURCES.

The Richmond Enquirer will
SAYS When We consider the ex>
tent and the resources Of our South
crn Sta tes, It's almost wonderful that
any man should for a moment doubt
the tremendous power our section
must and will exercise, within
very short time, not only upon the
United States as one of its integral
parts, but upon the whole CONNER
cial world. Our own people are
hardly conscious of the vantage
ground they occupy. The follow
ing from our valued contemporary,
the South, is not an oyerdrawn
sketch
The Southern States embrace an
area ofnearly 100000 square miles,
OF more than 600, 100000 acres, with
a population of about $4,000, 900.
The natural capabilities Of this sec
ton surpass those of any other land
beneath the sun, while their produc
tive results are ofvital Importance to
the commerce of the world. the an
nual cotton product reaching, say,
100000 bales and bringing rev
enue of nearly $300,000,000, while
the rich agricultural products, timber
and naval stores contribute in NJ
small measure to the general wealth
To these sources of revenue may b.
added the mineral resources of th'
country, now being developed. Th'
success and economy with which this
work is being carried forward will b.
conceded, when it is known that phi
iron is actually being made in Ten
nessee at less than SIS per ton.
But the development of this sectio,
is hardly begun. 1t is said that tn
State of Mississippi alone, if her so
were properly and entirely titled
would bring forth On amount of cotto
equal to the present entire annus
, product.
And surely the aggregate minin
interests of the whole section coul
find ample scope in about any one
| the rich mineral States we coul
. name.
6 If to-day this section, still bearin
: tho scars of war, is able to contribur
Q so heavy share to the prosperity I
= she nation and of the world, it is n,
J possibly to measure the magnitude
her products few years hence, whe
! the hand Of man shall bring h
{ resources to the light. The Soutl
5 ern States are destined to be the seat
great population, of vast industri
and Of untold wealth.

A!THIRD TERM.

y travelling correspondent of the
indianapolis Journal Senator Nor
toms home organ, in recent letter
to thatpaper, reports a conversa~
tion which he had the other day
with Ticc-President Wilson on the
recent third term revelations, andin
the course Of this conversation it ap-
pears the Vice President declared
that d" he did not know whether the
President really aspired 20 third
term" but " that if he did he would
~-.ealnly ind that the American
people would cloct no man for a
third term to the Presidency. no
matter how mcritorious his services
or record" and that so far as he
(Wilson) was concerned, he 'would
have as soon joined the rebellion
in its first conception as to join now
the tail Of it which yet showed life. .

A contributor of the Morning
Star advocates second State Peni-
tentiary, to be located on Deep
River in the midst of the coal and
iron region. His object is to utilize
convict labor in the development of
the great resources of that portion
of the State. The Star suggests
that perhaps a better, because more
economical, plan would be to estab-
lish temporary quarters there for
laborers drawn from. the Penitenti~
ary at Raleigh. This is feasible.

us SAUL ALSO,AMONG THE PRO
D tETC 1iI

The following editorial III the
Washington CAroniels reads strangely
in the columns of that journal.
The Vicksburg election passed off
quietly and in the best of order.
After all the threats of danger and
demand for United States troops it
appears there was neither imminent
danger nor cause for alarm: The
result was the success by nearly four
hundred majority of what was called
the white mans ticket. Some colored
men voted with the majority, but
only four white men, it is said, voted
the negro ticket.
It is peculiarly unfortunate that
contests of this character are precipi-
tated at these municipal Or State elec-
tons. If the colored men in the
Southern States are to become useful
and worthy citizens it can never be
done by making the question Of
color an issue in The political canvass.
This of necessity arouses the worst
passions of both races, and in every
instance thus far the result has been
the defeat of the colored men.
The difficulty in these cases is
Scarcely ever attributable to the
colored men themselves, or to leaders
of their own race. It it generally
occasioned by the selfish course Of
some debased white demagogues, who
incite this feeling in hopes to gain
political office for themselves; and sc
long as this class of men are allowed
any influence or control in public
affairs in a city or State, so long viii
will these unfortunate contests arise
Peace, harmony and an united desirt
for the public good, without refer
ence to race or color, is the onl,
security for the prosperity Of tbs
. community; and the sooner th'
! Southern countrysis rid Of these pes
tilent instigators Of public discor
> the better for all citizens whethe
: : white or black; and if they were t
suffer from the summary punishmen
~ they seek to excite against thei
neighbors, the loss to the communit
E would be small, and thepublic benef
4 incidentally great.
What can be the cause Of this sue
g den change of front in the leadin
e Radical organ on the negro question
u But no matter what the cause {
# motive, we congratulate the countr
n upon the conversion Of the Chronicl
,r and gladly welcome it in:o the rank

A CONVENTION.


One of the greatest evils obtain
ing in political parties in these latter
DAYS is that the contest seems to be
too much for place and plumber
and not enough for abstract prlncIN
ple. 1t is true that this state OF
affairs has been an inevitable result
of the excited animus produced by
the war, making the first chiet dis
tinction between the national parties
the simple matter of policy towards
the Southern states, the one party |
taking the position they were peers
with the other states of the Union
and should govern themselves ac-
cording to constitutional require
ments, the other that they were
conquered territories and should be
treated with severity and humiliated
that treason might be made odl-
Gus. The natural effect OF this
state of things in national politics
was to cause in the Southern states
parties likewise involving but little
of the principle of government and
making the basis of difference
5ycophantic subserviency and an
indignant opposition. Eight years.
however, have past since the war,
and it is time that our people were
taking deeper views of their politi-
cal situation.
North Carolina has just achieved
most overwhelming victory. The
people after years Of endurance,
have risen up against the party
that has been stigma to the State
and declared that North Carolinians
should rule North Carolina. What
is to be the result of this great vic
tory? Shall it be simply to place
or shall it 60 deeper and change
the organic law of the State so that
she will be forever guarded against
the evils that have afflicted her
The first is noble purpose, but our
victory would be almost void Of
good results if We do not call a con-
yention and change our constitution.
However able our Legislature may
be, it is powerless for good as long
as it remains hampered by the
present constitution Of the State.
I We do not advocate just now
radical alterations in the constitu-
ton, except the expunging of a
large mass of matter which props
erly belongs to the Legislature and
is no part of the organic law. The
Constitution should contain moths
ing but few fundamental laws in
regard to the preservation Of life,
liberty and property, the detail
being left to the Legislature. We
only now mention two suggestions
affecting the question of suffrage ::
No man should be allowed to vote
who does not show his tax receipt,
if demanded by any elector so to
DO, nor should any persons be en-
titled to vote who has been convic-
ted Of an infamous crime. These
laws would not only be right in
themselves, but would do much to-
wards collecting the public dues
and for the prevention Of crime.
Take, for instance, county like
Edgecombe, and what could do so
much for the suppression of crime
IS the knowledge that if caught
and convicted the guilty person
would for ever be deprived of his
suffrage: Not the whipping post
itself would be such preventive.
We hope the matter of conven-
ton may be the first considered
by our Legislature, and as there
can be no doubt about the requisite
two-thirds vote this time, it will call
the convention as soon as practica>
BILE.

from, which in the Merrimon>Cald-
