OF the horrible outbreak at CarrolltoD,
Miss. the Davenport Qowa) Democrat
has the fairness to say:
THE massacre Of thirteen unresis.ing
negroes at Carrollton, Miss, makes one
Of the most barbaro,s episodes which
has been our bad fortune TO chronicle for
years. The details 10 to show that the
tragedy was simply an unproyoked
slaughter. The State Of Mississippi owes
il 10 herself and 10 the whole South to
punish the murderers sharply, sternly
and quickly"
But we are sorry enough to be compel
led to add to the fact that the indications
are that neither the State, nor the local
authorities, in Mississippi will do any
thing Of the sort. Governor Lowry says
the affairs at Carrollton do not demand
executive interference as everything il
quieti As twenty-one negroes out OF
twenty-three who were in the Court
House were killed or desperately woun-
ded, there Is not likely TO be any dis
turbance from them, and the hundred
whites who assassinated them in cold
blood will probably offer no more
violence 90 long as the proper meekness
and subsection is continued upon the
other side of the color line. or course

Drv1prra DAKOTA.

The bin recently brought forward in
the house Of representatives at Washing
ton. providing for the division Of the
territory Of Dakota upon an east and west
line, seems to meet with q considerable
degree Of favor among the democrats Of
congress. While il does not look prob
able from the action--or, rather, nom
action Of congress on Dakota matters that
s state win be created out Of either the
whole or part Of the territory al this
session, the movement for division and
creation Of two territories is significant.
Ifthis bin should pass and become q
Law, an enabling act should be submitted
to the people Of the south portion cer-
tsinly, and possibly 10 the northern also,
allowing them to pass upon the question
Of admission in the regular way. II il
sere found. upon fill and fair vote,
that majority Of the people Of either
North or South Dakota had Expressed a
desire for statehood, the territory SO
desiring should be admitted with little
delay.
The political status ofthe people Of the
territory has nothing to do with the case.
While the Globe win be glad to see the
voters Of Dakota adopt rs their political
faith the sound doctrines ofihe demo-
cratic party, which doctrines it believes
to form the true theory Of republican
government; and it believes they would
by 90 doing best suoserve their own in
terests and those of their fellow men;
nevertheless, should they fail to do SO
the Globe would not consent to the
pcstmonement Of their admission as q
state one hour on that sccount.-St Paul

PATRONIzE HOME INDUSTRIES.


The people of Dixieland have yet
to learn the real Importance of, and
beneficial results accruing from pat
ronizing home industries. Favored
by every natural resource, the South
should be vast beehive of Industrial
activity, but until our people lend
the encouragement and support of
their patronage to those who have
the courage to embark their capital
and energies in lines of special pro-
duction, our manufacturing interests
will be represented only in the heavy
and coarse branches of this admitted
ly important source of wealth and
prosperity. We seemingly forget
that the dnte-bellum days, when from
force of conditions and circumstance
and habits, we had to look to the
North for whatever of luxury and
much of comfort and convenience we
desired, has passed away. The South
has many willing hands; it has une-
qualled natural resources it has
much capital that would be glad of
remunerative employment, it can
readily command an almost unlimit-
ed amount, and the only thing requi-
site, is home appreciation and sup
port. We do not support home in
dustries by purchasing homemade
products from Northern dealers. If
the Northern dealer will come South,
let us patronize and support him Civ
ing preference, however, in our pur-
chases, so far as we can, to goods
made in the South 1t is idle to say
we cannot produce as good wares
here as they do in the North. We
most certainly can, but we must have
our own peoples support and patron
age. Is it not the very acme of alb
surdity to buy in Northern markets
goods of Southern manufacture
Yet many of us are doing just this.
An instance: Over at Columbia, S.
C., is the only factory in the United
States which produces genuine Wen
ma bent wood furniture. The goods
are exceedingly strong, elegant,
graceful, superbly finished, and made
from a variety of Southern woods.
Southern capital, Southern brains,
Southern enterprise and energy, have
created these works, yet, singular as
it may appear, Southern people 20
North to purchase the goods produc-
ed in this Southern establishment
Is not this an anomaly? Is it not
time a change in custom was inaugu-
rated? Patronize home industries
keep your money at home; keep our
people employed; let their earnings
circulate at home, and then the South
will prosper and wax fat.-DIXIE.

HOW TO MAKE WINTER EVENINGS
PROFITABLE.

This is the season of short days
and long evenings, the best time of all
the year for study and improvement.
Perhaps you are young man de-
slrous of obtaining commercial en-
ployment. One of the best passports
In that direction, next to good char
acter, is good baud writing. OF
course you know how to write, but
like the great majority, probably,
you have never trained yourself to
write we'll. No merchant wants his
books disfgured by awkward and il.
legible scrawling. No lawyer will
submit to badly written copies. We
suggest you devote yourself this win
ter to persevering endeavors to i'm
prove your penmanship. You will
be surprised at the improvement
which real effort in this line will
achieve.
Do you wish to become expert as a
mechanical draughtsman? There are
excellent instruction books, sold verv
cheaply. The industrious occupa-
ton of your evening hours as a learn
er will surely be fruitful of results.

NINETEENTH CENTURY PROVERBS.

A thousands persons see no further
than one.
The truth of the past fights for the
hope of the future.
Genius is merely the courage to
fish in your wreck.
Ii you wish a person to think you
vlrtuous confess few faults.
Marriage is the prism that brings
out the colors of a youths and maid
ems life.
No small part of human misery
comes from the unjust application of
just laws.
Wise men sit in judgment upon
the poor, but the poor sit in judgment
on the world
Thousands of men who would muir
der you for ten, will not put to sea
on Friday.
If you wish a person to believe that
you know one thing, first swear that
you know nothing else,
Vices unite men; virtues separate
them drunkards are good friends.
The chief art of war is to assume
the offensive the mouths of soldiers
are more dangerous than their bayo-
nets.
There are two crimes in the world
not to work when you are able to
work; not to help those who are un-
able to work.
Science knows neither clean nor
foul, neither delicate or indelicate,
neither eyes, nose nor taste, but
only the truth.
The poets who created the heather
gods turned them into men to give
them greater interest. But they
were never able to turn them back
into gods.
The SANDER of friend, the treach.
cry of a wife, the deaf ear which hui
mainly turns to its lover-for these
three evils the gods cannot find a
remedy.

HOW.

A philosopher advises every man
who has. a heavy load of sorrow or
misfortune to carry, to devote an
hour every day to the study of some
language or art which in happier
days would be agreeable to him, fore
ing himself to do this until he takes
an actual interest in the occupation.
The physician who was most success
full in his treatment of the insane in
France, always inquired, when a pa
tent afflicted with melancholy mania
was brought to him, whether the per-
son had, when in health, any special
taste, such as love for dogs, birds,
gardening or passion for any kind
of game. If this was the case, OBJ
jects that would suggest the favorite
pursuit were brought before him.
"When can get patient to making
pies, planting seeds or quarreling
over chess, the victory is won," he
said. In all these remedies for grief
the motive is not to lessen the sor-
row, but turn the brain from the in
cessant brooding upon one subject.
We must remember that our mind is
affected in sorrow through the brain,
which is physical organ as much as
the stomach, and is equally subject
to physical laws. Our first duty
when grief overtakes us is submission
to God. But even the highest spir-
itual exaltation does not hinder dam
age to the material brain by the en-
gorgement of the blood vessels, pro-
duced by incessant dwelling on a
single theme. Every day we read of
suicides of young people who are
overwhelmed with the first misfor-
tune in lite, disappointment in
love, or failure at college. A man
ly struggle for submission, and after
that some practical effort such as
these which we have cited, would
keep them from the towards exit OF
life.
