A LITTLE IMAGINATION

EDITOR JoURNAL:-I notice In
the morning paper short squib in
reference to the haunted barn in
South Salem. 1t seems that since
the Salvation army has left town
that the periodic spleen of We States
man reporter must be leveled at
South Salem In some Hammer. A
short time ago 1t was the Gypsies,
now we have 1t as the Haunted
Barn. Now don't think it's either
honorable or fair to make any spe-
cial portion of the town a target for
base inslnuations when they are en-
tirely uncalled for. South Salem is
we'll located and Is peopled with a
respectable decent people IS can be
found anywhere, and If the said
porter will deslst tor brief periC
from mixing his drinks 1 think he
will find as much to commend in
South Salem as anywhere.
Yours,
SOUTH SALEMITE.

NEW YORK LETTER.
Evacuation Day-A New Ferry-$5,
100000 Raised.
New York Nov. q, 1889.

One hundred and six years ago
to-day, November 25, 1888, the last
of the British troops formally and
finally evacuated New York City,
and George Washington made his
triumphant entry. Our city has
grown somewhat since then, and
what was little more than a seaport
town of few thousand inhabitants,
has become one of the most import
ant cities of the globe. lis singular
that the anniversary Of such an inn
portant event is allowed > pass by
without receiving more attention,
for by this evacuation of the British
our country was left in undisputed
possession of the people. The cen
tennial was marked by magnifi-
cent celebration which will long be
remembered, but the usual celebra-
ton is confined to the hoisting of
the flag on the Battery, at daylight.
This is done by David Van Arsdale,
a grandson of the boy, Van Arsdale,
who climbed the pole at the same
spot and there nailed the Stars and
Stripes, 106 years ago.
A NEW FERRY.
An effort is being made to estab-
lish new ferry line across the
North river. The Pennsylvania
railroad company, which already
has two ferries, has made a propo-
sition to the comptroller as men,
ber of the Sinking Fund commits
sion, to take control of and operate
the line If established and ut the
next meeting of the board of Alder
men an ordi nance to that effect will
be introduced. This will make the
tenth terry for regular passenger
business between New York City
and Jersey.

In shape for presentation to congress
next week. No question about it,
we have been very slow In raising
such comparatively small sum for
so large an undertaking and benefit.
Our very rich men have, as a rule,
woefully fallen beneath the stand
ard of what was expected, but our
"middle class" has been generous.
The fact that Jay Gould, with his
fortune of 800, 1000, 900 and upwards,
subscribed at the last moment the
modest sum of SIS, 900 Is commented
upon In a way that is extremely un-
complimentary, to the donor. To
be sure, his "interests," the Western
Union Telegraph Co., aud the ele-
waited railroads have Clipped in a
like amount each, but 1t is safe to
say that II the fair is held here, they
will receive the amount of their sub
scriptions back In less than one
weeks time. Our people are far
from elated at the niggardness of
those who will mott benefit finan-
cially by the fair.

a Tribute to Faithful slaues.

Mary Frances deserves the thanks of the
southern people for having written "Da ldy
Dave" an unpretentious but very int es
ing little volume She says that her main
Object IN writ g it was to pay a tribute t
a faithful and beloved family servant, who,
under the most trying circumstances, ever
faltered in the trusts confidei to him. Il
will at ones be OWNED from this
that the book relates to the war
period of 1896 During Mt period
the property Of the southern people was a t.
the mercy of the slaves, and the women
and child On were under their protection.
and yet, as the author of this book SAYS,
there was never recorded during that time,
from the Potomac to the Rio Grande, a
instance Of insure ton on the part of these
slaves. Their fidelity was remarkable. There
was strong b)ni of affection of a
peculiar kind between them and those who
we're left TO their charge. OF course there
were instances in which they were unfaith-
full to their trusts, but these were the ex-
captions.
Southern people do not need to read this
book to be informed concerning the rela-
lions that existed between the slaves and
the better classes Of slave owners during
the war, but here are many n rthern peo-
pie who would profit by reading it. They
would find that slavery in the south was
not a convertible term with cruelty and
oppression. Many of them have formed
their impressions Of slavery in the ,uth bv
reading ''Unc.e Toms Cabi :" Mrs. Stowe
was not IA niliar with her subject whea she
wrote that book. The pictures which she
drew were greatly exagge ated, aud they
would have been ludicrous under other
circumstance The author of Daddy
Dave" places matters i'll their true lighr.
The outhern people found themselves the
possessors by Inheritance of these colored
people, d they gave themselves conscien-
tlously to their care. In the vast majority
Of cases they won the respect and affection
Of the slaves, and they went to the war
with the conviction that their interests
would be faithfully cared for. Tho re-
markable action Of the slaves during the
war Is to be accounted for in no other wav.

This year it is s13, 905, SO4. In behalf of
public schools the south mas put its shoulder

In the division of the school money no
discrimination is made against the blacks.
They have all the adva tages the whites
have. If they don't improve it is their
own fault.
If the republican politicians of the north
will let the south alone, and cease their
efforts to mako the black vote a power n

OF this century, will show an advancement
in material wealth that will surprise til,
