Quincy Herald: A few days ago we
saw a pair Of young mules that were
raised In this county. They were large
and healthy and show that our farmers
need not send away for stock if they will
only take little pains in raising them at
home. The lately arrived Germans on
the Alsace plantation have gone steadily
to work and seem to be contented and
happy. They are sober and industrious
and will make excellent citizens. We
hope to see many more of the same class
OF people locate in our county.

General Harrison was not elected on
the color issue. Personally he does not
owe any special favors to the negroes;
politically, he can serve his party best by
looping off the Southern branches of the
Republican tree. He can never hope to
break the Solid South by restoring to
office the scalawags and strangers who
made Republican South impossible.
The South is in the Union to stay there,
and, whatever the policy of the coming
administration may be as to the
color question, it is certain that
in the South, as in the North,
and throughout the world, the
race that is strongest in mind, character,
and resources will prevall.-Charleston
