The Truth
D. S. COWAN,
Chm'n. pro tenn. Elk. Com.

PInchback, one of the most promi-
nent negro politicians, said III the late
convention of colored men at Nash
vile, Tennessee:
eff we consolidate the white people
of this section together, or any other
s. elton, against the black man
and make it an issue, the ami hilat1oE
of the blacks is certain. There is no
question about it. There once be-
longed to this very land race that for
c ivalry and daring. for true valor and
courage, has not an equal on the face
Of the globe. I allude to the Indian.
Where is he to-day? There was an ire
pressable conflict between him and the
white man, and the result is that the
place which knew him but few years
ago knows him no more. And gentle
men just as sure as L speak; If this
antagonism is to go on IF we are to have
this political war which is now being
waged between the races, it will not
be long before it will be an actual war,
ana the end will be our humiliation. "

Northern uethodists.

These have long been noted for
their intese loyalty and devotion to
Grantisn. During the war they
burned Southern Methodist churches
and shot Southern ministers with
gushing devotion to the Union. Since
the war they have tt stjfied their loyalty
by approving every act of oppression
of the South. Rev. DR.. Callahan of
that loyal body reiterated the other
day at the Baltimore conference the
charges that he had before made that
their Great Book Concern was a fraud
and swindle, and that tue snpra-loyal-

Charge BayOnerS!

On Saturday evening a free fight
took place at AycOck's rum mill, OPP
posite the federal garrison, between
some niggers and soldiers. A darkey
by the name of Amos Smith was
fioored through the instrumentality of
the butt end of musket in the hands
Of muscular son of Mars. and then
ends were changed and the bayonet
was inserted into his left side. causing
a dangerous and jagged wound. At
last accounts Amos was thought to be
in a critical condition. The best of

the fighting kind is Tapped up, the
consequences are often fearful. Beat

Brief hut Brilliant.

The two briefest and most brilliant
orators above the sod are Dom Pedro,
His Brazilian Majesty. and John A
Moore, Esq, of Halifax, N. G.
When the notables of this sweet
scented country met the former in the
harbor of New York in bowling, set and
polite speeches The old fellow said, all
right. No tomfoolery for him.
The latter attended as spectator a
base ball match in his town. The con-
quered side asked Our friend to pre-
sent the ball, at the same time hand
ing it to him.
Who to ? asked he.
TO Capt 2.
Ga, certainly, slil he.
Cap'n here's your bali.
Capt. Il. accepted it with a bow,
stepped back aud delivered a flourish
ing Grafton. The presenter, amazed,
pulled off his hat and listened with an
intensity that was ravishing.
He retired to his room, ordered
Rice's manual (or somebody else's) and
at once began hasty, though
thorough study of the art and my stery
of the literature of baseballism.
1t is more amusing as our friend is a
fine orator and first class lawyer.

We learn that the fine, large DWELL
ing house near Garysburg, owned by
j. j. Long, Esq, and It present oc-
cupI"d by Mr.. J. b. Tilghman and
fsmily, caught fire at an angle of the
roof from Il chimney spark Gt was
supposedly about three o'clock on the
afternoon of Friday last. There was
no male assistance nearer than a quar-.
ter of mile. Mr.. L. and his sons
were absent, and nearly mile distant
at the time. Mrs. Tilghman and her
two daughters, Misses Harriet and
Ella, Mrs. Us little granddaughter
and the school children were the only
persons in the house.
Very soon after the alarm was
raised the point of danger was ascer-
tanned aud Miss Harriet Tic hmau
procured a ladder which was III the
yard, some twenty-five steps from the
back door. aud with it hastened to the
house, aud then up flight of stairs to
the second floor and by means of it,
after being placed in position, reached
the scut6le. Here she encountered a
volume of smoke. Nothing daunted
however, and knowing no time was to
be lost. she acted without hesitation
and finally reached the burning roof
through the trap door, raising the
door with her head and turningit over
SO that she could get on the roof and
make her way to the fire.
On the roofa double danger awaited
her in the risk of falling to the ground
thirty six feet or more, and of her
clothing catching fire from the culver
ing flames pressed toward her by the
high wind prevailing at the time.
Buckets of water had been drawn
Ind carried to the second floor by the
school children and by some colored
friends on the premises as soon as
circumstances would permit, though
| Miss Harriet was on the roof ten
minutes or more before aid reached
| her. .
The buckets had all to be gotten up

EDITOR OF THE JOURNAL: The at
tempt to organ'ze new pafty-some.
what after the creed of the com.
munlsts of France-in this county was
developed a few days ago and fully
illustrates what short of shifts those
imbued with official Grantism can
make to retard apparent political in
fiuence in the community. The at
tempted organization was made by
the issuing of the "old style postal
card" by e. NJ. Rosary to a few select
and confidential colored men tc circu-
late among the colored voters of this
township for their signatures. On the
back of each of the cards was printed
the following. which I give verbatim:
believing in the universal Father
hood of God, in the common brother
hood of man and in oneness of the
American nation. l, representing the
mighty mite of one cent, DO heref V
pledge my vote and work during the
centennial campaign, to the party Of
Humanity, Equal Rights and National
progress. Signed: WITNESS.
These cards We're given out Ill great
secrecy by Ro@afy and were to be cir
culated among the colored voters
entirely, and when signed, to be
returned to the crafty author of the
mighty mite, each card was sup
posed to represent the signer thereof
as controlling ten voters, and thus vir
tualy secret political organization
would be made which could not be
reached by the law. However the
prOnunciamentO of Rosafy was so
grand, and so far out of the common
consisten " If things. that it had the
very opposite effect from what he in
tended. A few evenings ago the lead
lug colo1ed men ofthe township assem-
5led to the number of about forty, only
two white men being present. and for
mally declared that Rosafy must
hencefOrth take back seat and medi-
tate on the INCONSISTENCY of the brother
hood, and the prehensibility of
mighty mites. Truly, the RAIDS have
a very unpleasant time of 1t IN Bruins
wick, and this year it appears will be
more prolific of ghostly apparitions, to
wouid-be otfice-hoders than any ever
known before.
The Masonic fraternity of this place
have reftted their lodge room, and
ordered a new and costly set of regalia
aud jewels. The lodge room is now
one of the handsomest in the State, and
speaks highly for the interest of its
mem bers, as we'll as its prosperity.
