What " great pity it is The soash-
ern whites aud sostheru negroes csn.
not be let alone to work out their
own salvation They understand
each other, and could get along oil
right bat for the interference of
outsiders who do not understand
the situation. The white mars
disposition to rule his c"nntrS 10
Just "a great now as 1t was at the
close of the war, and his determine.
ton has not aLsted either. The
negroes uuders,apd THE, aud if let
alone they would submit pescsbly
to It, aud this would always end The
controversy, because there il. no
contention between them. Right
or wrong, the Caucasian race has
always ruled whore it had the pow
er, or in other words, il is going to
aud the power, aud 10 the end, the
su coordinate race vii, have to yield.
The Caucssisu of the southern

from, the rest If the race, the w,rld
over. For o'orsd men to under.
take to rulS . n0rtbera state, would
prove iust as DISASTROUS IN it proves
10 the South. There is much
more kindly feeling in the hearts
of south ern people for negr1es than
can be found ia the northern hearts,
for they have grown up together.
aud ehch understands the other,
but when the southern negro gets
fired up to = state OF arrogance by
northern people, and led to believe
it his right and duty to rule over
and control his white friends he is
on dangerous ground, on what has
proven time aud, again untensble
ground, and the sooner the whole
country realizes that the southern
whites and blacks can settle their
difficulties themselves, or rather that
they can keep out of difficulties,

Ans.-As there is no difference
in the price tho public will tuy on.

how can you get che public to
know your make is the best?
If both articles are brought
prominently before the public both
are certain to be tried and the public
will very quicklp pass judgment on
them and use only the better one.

Mounting the Guns.

The mounting of the cannon attract-
ed a large crowd to the Diamond last
Saturday and great interest was taken
in the work. The stone foundations for
the carriges had been completed, and
the carriges put in place the day before:
and on Saturday morning derrick con
sisting of three stout timbers was erect
ed over one of the carriages, to which
was attached large, iron block. from
sherman q Johnston machine shop.
The chain was attached 10 the gun, the
carriage protected by timbers, and the
gun dragged and lifted into position.
\ great shout went up when the trun-
Mons Of the first gun. settled INTO their
places The guns weigh about 500
each; the carriges about 1900 lbs. each.
The carriages were cast by w. n.
Emery & Son of Franklin from some
old moulds in their possession, with the
lettering changed.
The mounted guns make quite an ad-
dition to the attractions of the Diamond
and to Col Z. P. Scott, who secured the
guns and carriages, and arranged for
their mounting. the credit is due.
