We had 4 conversation with an old farm
CT on Sunday last, in which we spoke of
sending negroes to school. The old gem
tlcman remarked that it would do the
race no good. He said the young race Of
negroes only imbibed the idea from
schools that they were as good in all re-
speets as the whites and that it would be
beneath their dignity TO do any kinds of
service for the white man that the white
man would not do for himself. He fur
ther said, that only those negroes reared
in slavery have any true respect for
white people, and that that class of ne
grOes only will work. This thing of
taxing white people for the schooling of
negroes is a yankee device that will, if
not checked, work the ruin of the nation
Let wise minds reflect, said he.

Mr.. Dashiell in his beautiful address
upon the ''The Lessons of a Hundred
Yeers, - among other great truths, enun-
ciated the following:
''Fhe philosophy of government which
resulted in independence and the f0Fma-
ton of the Union is, that governments
are or Oughtto be, instituted and adj
miuistered for the preservation and pro-
lection of individual sights. These pFin-
ciples and constitutions were silenced by
the civil war They are not dead but
sleeping. The idea OF a true constitu-
tiOnal government is still fresh and Wig
Orous, and If cultivated and cherished by
an unselfish patriotism, they will still live
on, and by their presence and influence
preserve American institutions through
countless ages yet to come
The addresses of both Mr. Dashiell and
Mr.. Brown were well received by the
crowded audience that heard them; and |
the young speakers had smiles from wo-

CATGUT.-On Wednesday night last,
we saw party approach C. II. Brown,
asking Il question "Are fddle-strings
made of catgut?'' There were five men
of the party-four against one. The one
stoutly eontended that the strings were
manufactured of feline entrails; while
the four insisted they were not made of
that material. The one said he had seen
persons catching and killing cats III order
to get material for the manufacture of
strings; but agreed that Mr.. Brown
should decide the controversy; and that
gentleman said sheepgut, not catgut, was
the word-that the lightrcolOFed strings
the sort in highest favor in America
are made of the entrails of the spring
lamb-the dark ones of those OF the old
sheep-the latter being strongest. Like
