Colonel VIM. II. LOVE, Secretary to His

my own personal knowledge and observa-
ton have no hesitation in saying that
Red Star Cough Cure is the best remedy for

SUNNYsIDE, GA, March 15.-EdjtOa'
Morning NetgS: The wisest and most be-
nevolent man | ever knew once said to
me in moment of effusiOn "ConfOuud
the philanthrCpists; they have done more
harm than all the robber monsters who
have lived" And then he poured out
great mass of facts in relation to these
one-idead regenerators of mankind. Luz
TIERS thirty years war-Penn's policy of
theft, as compared with that of the great
Peruvian instructor who came from
Heaven to enlighten. If he had not been
called away by Gods kindness he would,
l doubt not, have added the history of the
civil war in America, and he wound up
by telling me, his son, to walk tenderly
over the ashes of the past.
How does this Louisiana regeneration
approach the great question which he
presumes to handle? He does not look to
Heaven for guidance. "Aye, fools rush
in where angels fear to tread" He is a
schOOlman, and can WELD the rhetorician's
tools. and having embarked-I fear for
filthy lucre-in unjust war against his
lacerated country, he dares to traduce
her and to give her history falsely.
The South did not go in search Of sla-
very, but slavery sought our shores. The
British Parliament compelled us TO re-
ceive the product of the ASSieRtO farm.
My own progenitors fought hard and long
against the Introduction of the black pol
luton; but when forced to receive them
they cared for them IN the best way-they
improved them. But these naughty High
landers would no more have entertained
the idea of assimilation than they would
have taken a female ape into their arms.
Mr.. Cable has no doubt studied chemis-
try and knows that certain minerals will

EneInnd.s COMPLICATIONS.

The opinion appears to prevail TO some
extent in Europe that England is on the
brink OF a great conflict. There is, of
course. some ground for such an opinion.
England already has a very expensive
war on her hands in the Soudau, and the
complications with Russia, although they
are not Of such a threatening character
rs they were a few days ago, may result
in a war. Ireland is always a source Of
trouble, and the trouble from that source
is more annoying at present than 1t has
been for long time. There have lately
been differences between Germany and
England and between France and Eng
land, which, though apparently settled
fOr the present, may come to the surface
again in the near future in a more ag-
gravated form.
The outlook for England, therefore, Is
not Of the most pleasing character; but
while there is a prospect of conflict that
NAV require all the resources Of England
and Undergraduates TO sustain, there isn't
any considerable peace party IN England
Both the press and the people appear TO
be eager to avenge the death of Gen. Cor
don by smashing the Mahdi and to hui
initiate the Russians by forcing them to
retire from the Afghan frontier.
England seems to think that if her cole
nies and India remain loyal she can sue
cessfuuy overcome any number OF enc
mics. All the reports indicate that she
can depend upon India, and that India is
ready 10 furnish at least 100000 fine sol
diers 70 fight the Russians. The colonies
have asked to be allowed to help in the
Soudan war, and in some instances their
help has been accepted.
In the event Of a great war, however,
the colonies themselves would be threat
ened. and their first consideration, doubt
less. would be to take care of themselves
Ii they were called on to make great
sacrifices to aid England 1t is not I'M
probable that they would demand to be
represented in Parliament. In the event
OF a great conflict, therefore, great
changes in the relations between Eng
land and her dependencies may reason
ably be expected; and il such changes
occur, may there not be notifications IN
England's form Of government reducing
the prerogatives and Importance of the
royal family? These speculations may
have little foundation, but may they not
he reasonably considered as among the
possibilities?
