THE NEGRO PROBLEM.

This twaddle about solving the
"negro problem" as agitated by
some of our Georgia exchanges,
seems to US to be very untimely,
when the election of another Presi-
dent is only next year The status
of the negro has been fixed by the
l4th and II 9th amendments to the
Constitution of the United States.
The negro is in the race for life,
and be will either 90 forward or lag
behind. The white race being the
superior of the two races, has moth
ing to fear as far as the Survival Of
the Ettest" is concerned. We admit
that the negro as political element
is corrupting one, when he is con
trolled by designing, bad men, but
we have a foreign element constant
ly flowing into the United States,
i'm bued with communism and many
other "isms" which are inimicaI to
the genius and spirit of our govern
ment, likely to prove far more dan
gerous TO the permanency of our
constitutional form OF government
than the negro. The negro is here,
and be is here to stay, as far as this
and the next generation is concern,
ed. To remove him, as the Indians
were removed, requires colonization
aud Acknowledgement, which would
in our opinion bring about bloody,
insurrectionary war, destructive to
both life and property, something to
be avoided and not desired, 1t were
Infinitely better to bear the ills we
have, than to fly to others more ans
archial than those we now endure.
God aud nature has settled the social
relations of the white and negro ra-
ces, which no law of man can alter !;
the political and Industrial relation
ship Of the two races must work out
good or evil, just as Intelligence ard
wisdom, opportunity and circum
stance may evolve.

A PITIABLB PICTURE.

RamsdelI writes from Washington
to the Philadelphia Press: IL can
point out to you ex Senators who can
scarcely buy their breakfasts, who
are so seedy and dilspidated that
they will cross the street rather than
meet an old friend. There are also
ex Cabinet officers who used to be
spatter 'us common people with mud
from their carriage wheels as they
rolled grandly on, who are now not
recognized by their former Asso
ciates. There are ex Generals in
the army, whose names have honor
able mention in history, whose deeds
will never be forgotten, aud on
whose shoulders the double star of a
Major General set with pride, now
so poor and helpless that they are
often hungry, without a cent to bay
food 1t is all such a painful phase
of Washington life that | have not
the heart to go on. But is it not a
pity, dear reader that the same fate
that takes away from q mau the
power to continue to be good and
useful also takes away from him the
power to end his miserable days with
bare bodkin 7 1t is gloomy, dis
nal subject, and we will drop it,"

INHERITED STRENGTH.

Prof. r. A. Proctor found at Re-
no, Nevada, a man who claims to be
the strongest man in the world
His name is Angels Cardella. He
is an Italian aged thirty eight, and
stands FIVE feet ten inches in height,
weighing l38 pounds His strength
was born with him, for be has had
no athletic training. lie differs from
others chiefly in osseous structure
Although no. of unusual size, his
spinal column is double the ordinary
width and bis bones and joints are
made on a similar large and gener-
Gus scale. He can lift a man of 200
pounds with the middle finger of his
right hand The man stood with
one foot on the floor, bis arms OUT
stretched and bis hands grasped by
two persons to balance his body
CardeIla then stopped down and
placed the third finger of his right
hand under the mans foot, and, with
scarcely any perceptible effort, rails
ed him 20 the height of four feet and
deposited him on a table near at
hand. Once two powerful I-ishmen
waylaid Cardella with intent to
thrash him, but be seized one 10 each
hand and hammered them together
till the life was nearly hammered
nearly out of them. He is of a
quiet aud peaceful disposition, and
bis strength is inherited, for he
states that bis father was more pow.
erful than himself.
