From the Memphis Appe,lf

From the Memphis Appeal
We always read the Chicago Tribune
with pleasure This paper is decidedly
Republican IN its politics, but the edi-
toriais are devoid of SANDER, misrepre-
sentation or abuse, while characterized
by dignity, philosophy and statesman
ship. The Tribune of Monday las; has
an acticle on ''The color line in the
South, which, if read and appreciated
by the Southern blacks. would have a
powerful influence in future elections.
+ We make the following extracts:
We have heretofore urged the neces-
sity and wisdom of abolishing the color
line in Southern politics, and have
/ pointed out how much better il wonld be
for the negroes of The Southern States to
abandon their race organizations and
assimilate themselves with the white
people, who compose the political parties.
Divided, as members of the Democratic
and Republican parties, the colored peo-
pie would have the support and protec-
ton of both parties, while, so long as
they remain united as race, they will
be but fraction within one party. and
perpetuate an antagonizing of races in
which they will always be defeated So
long as the colored people insist upon
being solid body in political matters,
so long will they force the white race
into the opposing party, thus giving the
Democratic party an ascendancy in these
States which it would not have under
other circumstances. So long as the col
ored people in the South band together
as separate party, so long will the
whites of all shades of opinion unite to
oppose them, and so long viii the ne
groes possess their political privileges at a
disadvantage. Gradually, State after
State has passed beyond the control of !
the eolored people. Only in South Car
DINA and Mississippi do they hold su-
premacy, and in these States in due |
time the power must pass away from /
them The North, or the general gov
eminent, cannot arrest this change, even
ifso disposed. The majority must rule,
and in a struggle between the two races,
as races, the less informed and less ex-
perienced, and less educated, must be
vanquished. If, however, this color /
line be abandoned, and the colored peo-
pie exhibit disposition to unite with the
whites, there will be instantlya division
of the latter into two parties on old and
new political issues. To each of these
parties the support of portion Of the
colored people will be necessity, and
both parties of whites will become at once
the friends and protectors of the weaker
race, instead of being as now united TO
oppose aud Cypress it. When the negro
race at the South divide their suffrages
between the Democratic and Conserva-
tive parties, all the present hatred, pref
udice and bitterness against them will
give way, and the negro voters will be-
come identified with and merged in the /
general population of the South, sharing
its prosperity and advancing in intelli- |
gence, power and influence, under the /
better feelings and unity of the whole.

A strange Freak of Nature.

DardanelIe, Arkansas, is fairly ahead
on hens, and may properly claim the
champion layer of the world. Mr.. James
Miller of that town owns a hen of very
ambitious nature, which set itself down
the other day and did its level best to
Guido anything that had ever before been
witnessed in the egg line. The Siamese
twins were taken as exemplars, and the
hen succeeded at any rate in getting up
the basis ola gallinaceous imitation. Two
seemingly perfect and complete eggs
were laid, united by small cord about
the. size of lead pencil. Mr.. Miller
was too curious to see what was inside to
wait till the hen could hatch the egg, and
broke the shells, finding the yolk in ore
and the white albumen in the other. II
is doubtful if the old thing could have
been warmed into life under the circum.
stances, and madame hen will have to
try it over once more and get a little
yolk and little alhumen in each.

was very complimentary IN his reference
TO Mr. Revels. And an Endorsement
from such a source, General West being
one of the old-time citizens of the State,
and at present prominent railway man
sger Of large enterprise, was significant.
:
1t was with real regret We parted from
our genial friend Hillyard, at Holly
Springs, and the pressure of the farewell
from the hand Of General West was warm
and re-inviting as that Of brother. We
shall remember our journey South as one
of interest not only, but OF profit, for We
are persuaded that freer intercourse of
travel, and especially confidence which
is reciprocal, viii do more than ballots
or bayonets Ia restoring normal relations
between the too long alienated sections
of our common country.

after arrested the thieves. They were

Novel Duck Hunting.

A ingenious Minnesota youth is
to be credited with a novelty in
way OF duck hunting. He lives
at a beautiful spot known as Rice
Lake, from the wild rice growing
on its margin as thick as wheat in
a field. Ducks love this rice, and
when they have partaken of a suf-
flcient quantity their flesh becomes
OF a nature to tempt the palate of
an anchorite. But the Rice Lake
ducks either from experience or
an instinct which may be said to be
wisdom intensified, do not like
human company, and when they
see hunter approaching generally
hasten out of gunshot range. Dick,
the youth before alluded to, was
particularly fond Of ducks, and
looked with contempt upon the
futile efforts Of his sire to provide
the table with this delicacy. He

So many persons fail to grow
garden peas that we will give a few
plain directions which, if followed,
will ensure a good return. We
take it for granted that the soil is
rich, as all garden soil should be.
If not let it be enriched with old
rottet manure. Coarse manure will
not answer for any garden vegeta-
bles.
Work a foot deep, make the
ground fine and level off, make a
trench, fully six inches deep il the
soil is sandy, il clayey four inches
drawing it by line. Make the
trench three inches broad on the
bottom, so that the seed may be
scattered somewhat as you would
corn in q hill. Sow aboat fifty
kernels to the foot, and cover two
inches deep. As the plants grow
draw the earth to the row and when
four inches high, brush them so
that they will not fall over, and
You will have pels in abundance.
