He Gould identify,

II there is any one thing the Southern
darkey is unwilling to admit it is that
there is anything in the world he does
not know. Not long since, an Austin
Senegambian missed pair of dove-col-
ored Sunday pants that had been star
routed from his trunk without his knowl-
edge or consent, by someone unknown.
He made complaint to the police head
quarters, and few days afterwards
pair Of unmentionables, similar to the
missinggarment, were discovered among
the other collaterals deposited in a pawn
brokers' establishment
"Do you think you could identify the
pants il YOU were to see them?" asked
the chief of police, on meeting the dis
tressed owner on the street.

The Future Of the Negro in this Country

The Future Of the Negro in this Country,
We must again ask the question,
What, from this standpoint, will the
upshot be when the blacks numerically
will so far exceed the whites as to over
come the vantage that the superior
wealth and intelligence of the latter
now give them? The outlook here is
no less serious. Whatever civic capa-
bility the blacks may have, it is now in
germ; whatever governing aptitude the
race may possess, it Is at present dor
mant. In the history Of nations it has
nowhere, as yet, been exhibited. If this
race in the United States is improving,
its improvement as was to have been
expected, is slow; and in every political
virtue it will still be vastly below the
whites, when in voting strength its
fecundity will have put it vastly beyond
them--so far beyond as 20 overcome
every counter-inhuence, and give the
political reins entirely into its hands
Who can doubt that, when this dav
comes, the blacks will obey a race-in-
stinct which all their surroundings will
have powerfully tended to develop, and
vote blacks alone into office? Thus
have they done wherever the power
existed. Kept, as they are, a distinct
and alien race. no other issue Is reason
able And who can doubt that, under this
state Of affairs an inferior and incompe-
tentrace completely dominating, bymere
numbers, a superior one--the worse dis
orders would ensue9 The whites would
not submit, and violent and disas-
trous conflict Of races must follow. The
whites would hold CD that, while
America is nation governed by ma
jorities, yet by those who framed the
Constitution it was never intended that
race brought here as slaves, an in
ferior race, one kept distinct by this
very inferiority, should, merely through
a superior fecundity, become politically
supreme, and lord II over the land
They would hold (2) that this political
lordship would be ruinous to every in.

piest results; and that, should this lord
ship become distinciively fastened upon
large section of the Union, the incom-
potency of the negro to provide legisla-
lively, for the manifold and complex in
terests of an advanced civilization
would arrest its activities. paralyze its
trade, and spread 4 decline throughout
the entire country.
These are real and gigantic evils

Surveyor General Atkinson yesterday
and inquired how he and Senator
Logan spent the time during their
recent trip to the American Valley.
"Ohl" said he, ave put in the time
very agreeably,- and he went on to
relate several interesting narratives.
Twenty miles northwest OF Moore
& Casey's ranch are located the woD-
drous salt springs, and after going on
a hunt south and bagging deer and
some wild turkeys, the party decided
upon visiting these springs. Here is
salt basin about one mile in diane
ter, and the waters ebb and flow as
regularly as do the tides of the ocean:
When the tide goes out, the edge OF
the basin shows salt instead of sand.
In the midst of the Lake are three
conical-shaped mountains LOO feet in
height by 100 feet in diameter,
which are apparently composed en-
tirely of cinder, such as Is left in any
ordinary CRATE after the coal is burnt.
One Of these forms On island in the
middle OF the basin, but the others
are 30 situated as 10 be accessible
when the tide is out. Fortunately,
this was the case when the visitors
were there, and, actuated by desire
to see all the wonders, they climbed to
the top of one of these mountains. 1t
was found to be hollow-just as If An
immense funnel had been thrust into
the top-and at the bottom, about on
q level with the water in the main
basin outside, was a spring, which
they discovered was possessed OF sew
ers1 peculiar features. The party
scrambled down inside the mountain
and reached the spring. The water
was found to be very strongly impreg-
mated with salt, and its density 80
great that a person in bathing would
find it impossible to sink or even
stand up in it OF do other than float
upon its surface. The depth of the
spring is unknown, and this too. like
the water in the basin, Gibbs and flows
with the tide.

A Peep ut the Planet Mersxry.
Providence Journal.

We had fine view of Mercury on
Wednesday evening soon after {
o'clock. The shy planet put on its
most winsome aspect as he made his
advent just above the belt of orange
skirting the horizon into which the
golden hue of twilight had deepened.
Jupiter shone in superb radiance
about 15o east of him and @ little
further south, while bright Capella
beamed upon him from the north.
The two planets and the star reigned
alone in the northwest, no other stars
having put in an appearance. They
formed starry triangle fair to see,
while the golden hue of Jupiter, the
rosy tint of Mercury, and the white
light of Copela were lovely illus
tration of the contrasts in color that
mark these shining mysteries. The
exhibition was a short one. Before
the sufused glow of twilight had
faded into the gray of evening swift
footed Mercury had disappeared from
view, and though the sky was swarmed
with stars, and the moon flooded the
sleeping earth with silvery light, the
charm of the evening had departed.
The planet that travels fastest, and is
nearest to the sun, seldom deigns to
remain so long above the horizon af-
ter sunset or to travel so far north as
at present. He will be visible for a
week longer, and then his light will
pale in the bright blaze of the suns
rays as he retraces his steps on the
track that draws him with resistless
force nearer to the great central source
of light and life. Any sharp-eyed
observer who commands an unob-
structed view of the northwest Will
be sure to pick up this ftfully shining
and wondrously brilliant planet under
the present favorable condition. The
sight viii amply repay the trouble ii
costs.
