To BE CONTINUE Ed


Col. Chas. X. Jones. proprietor OF the
Charlotte OLSerrer, is being named BY
several responsible parties, as a suitable can
didate for Congress from the 9Th District
Well, why not? There Is ut any Jntnt OBJ
lection, is there, to giving an office occasion
ally to such men as Jones who give their
whole time, talents, and the use of their
money, to building up their party?
We can speak freely, because the FARMER
AND MECHANIC, MT being a political paper,
cannot be accused Of blowing its own horn
We have received several Chicago
papers containing very eulogistic notices of
Col. p. DOMAIN who visited that city as the
manager or leader Of the Arkansas Press
Excursion-2OO members and their wires.
His Inter- Deem letters do not seem to have
affected his popularity in Arkansas.
The picnic at Holly Springs On Friday
was largely attended, speeches were made
by DR.. T. II. Pritchard, and Messrs. y. b..
Broughton and B. +. Montague. Quite a
number Of Raleigh people were present, and
enjoyed the proceedings

-When a successor to President Wingate,
of Wake Forest College was chosen, we ex-
pressed regret that the initials were not II.
H. p" Fortunately events have SO trans
pired that Rev. DR.. L. II. Pritchard has
taken the position. He resigned his pas
torate OH Sunday, and will remove at once
to the College. 1t is scarcely necessary to
say he carries with him universal good Will
81 the people among whom he has lahored
80 successfully. We think his Presidency
will assure the building up of the Baptist
College, and will inure to the benefit OF edu-
cation throughout the State.

4 COOP PURpOsE.-Dr. Hunter, OF Sa-
lem, DR.. Vine f. Turner, of Raleigh, and
DIR. +. S. Harris, were appointed by. the
State Dental Association to prepare a clrcu-
lar TO parents, urging them not to neglect
the teeth of their children. This IS an
worthy movement. Few persons realize
how much their health, comfort, beauty and
usefulness depend upon good teeth. Many
a man. life is ruined by dyspepsia, and the
disease was brought on by imperfect mastl-
cation owing to defective teeth. The writer
of these lines would cheerfully submit to
the amputation of his left arm, If 1t could
restore his teeth which were all destroyed by
acid drinks thrust down his throat as pre-
tended tonic, while in Albany Penitentlary.
The loss is hourly felt, especially in respect
to indistinctness of speech. We trust the
doctors will stir up the subject as above sug-
gested.

CONTINUATION. THE actual losses IN
ficted by the underground kidnappers pro-
badly can never be ascertained; though
Gen Clingman IN one of his speeches alludes
to a boast made by an abolition member of
Congress that these depredations had already
cost the South "~forty-fiye millions of dol
lars!' At all events they were sufficient to
force the virtual abandonment of slave-hold-
ing in the regions adjacent to the border.
Planters of Delaware, Western Maryland,
Northern Virginia, and portions of Ken
lucky and Missouri, finding themselves con
%tinually harrassed by the care of their ne
groes, being burdened with the aged, the
sick, and the helpless, while liable at any time
to be robbed Of the services of the more &C
tive and useful, gradually disposed of the
troublesome property by sale or manumis-
sion retaining only a few favored house
servants, too much attached to the family to
be coaNed away. But in giving up the
slaves they did not give up the natural feel
ing of resentment against the abolition plot
ters. Many of the best troops from Virginia

Last Ditch were from the border coun-
ties where not one in fifty of the inhabitants
owned a slave. They took arms because
they knew, even better than sheir brethren
of more Southerly ATTITUDES, how incessant
and persistent were the inroads Of the aboli-
t%ionists, and how plain was the alternative
| of fighting, or submission to humiliating
robbery, not only of their property, but Of
their constitutional and natural Rights to
hold it. To most of them the attempt of
John Brown to raise the fires of servile in
surrection throughout the South was a fear
full reality, an eruption of organized murder,
pillage, and rapine at their very doors.
And in view of the wide spread sympathy
shown for the assassins, who could fail to
fear a speedy repetition of the attempt?
THE JOHN BROWN RAID.
Regarding this famous foray as the real
beginning of the Civil war instead OF the fall
of Fort Sumpter, as the Northern historians
affect to believe, | shall sketch the leading
incidents as now remembered. But for 1T,
the war might have been delayed many
wears. But for it, the South, particularly
the central States, could never have been
moved, much less consolidated, IN favor OF
Secession.
As before stated, the chief Under
Groud Route followed the Blue Ridge
Northward from the vicinity OF Harper,s
Ferry, at the confluence of the Shenandoah
and the Potomac, where the latter is crossed
by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, as wei!
as bv the main turnpikes from the Great
Valley of Virginia. Prior to the war 1t was
considered a military post of much strategic
importance so important that -Nirginia's
first act after hearing Of Lincoln's Proclama-
ton was to send her Volunteers skurrying
night and day to seize it; Experience, how,
ever, quickly overturned these theories, and
Gen. Joe Johnston retired IN time TO escape
