That Southern Uprising.
From the Birmingham News (Dem)

The uprising in the Southern states,
which the Spanish were confidently ex-
pecting, has occurred. However, 1t has
been directed against the Spanish and not
against any other section of the American
union. Hobson, Blue, Joe Wheeler and
other Southern men have taken a con-
spicuous part in the movement.

If Madrid dispatches are to be credited
a very doubtful "if" by the way-Spain is
going to annihilate US shortly with a mod
ern application of the old Chinese idea of
the stink-pot in warfare. A cable of a
few days ago announced that the Spanish
minister of marine, on board of Admiral
Camara's flagship the Pelayo, had witness
ed the trial of a bomb invented by an
.apothecary of Zecla, one Michael Daza.
According to the story, the bomb could be
operated by four men in "the smallest
boat" Notwithstanding which 1t could des-
troy our strongest warshiDs. A popularity
of it was that it emitted a deadly gas, and
that one bomb would emit gas enough to
kill whole ships crew. The bomb, there
fore, would be a powerful weapon in at
lacking American coast cities. The smell
is called "toxpyre." The probabilities are
that this yarn was constructed by the
Spanish officials for home consumption.
Outside of Spain and China, the stink-pot
story will inspire neither awe nor fear.

Almost daily there occur in the camps
of concentration incidents which tend to
still more strongly cement together the
sections Of the country. One of these
which is worthy Of special notice was de-
tailed yesterday in our Chlckamauga cor

water barrels for them, supplied them
witch wood, and showed them various other
attentions. And then the two commands
ate and talked and laughed together, and
friendships were made which viii last as
long as life does AT Tampa the other
day the Second Georgia performed SINH

these Northerners and Southerners are
brothers in spirit rs well as in arms. all
though their homes are in sections which
were formerly hostile.

CURRENT COMMENT.
Don't Throw Away the Substance.
From the Pittsburg Dispatch Rep).

The fellows who thought that because
the United States won victory on the
other side of the globe it was time to
throw away everything that this country
has stood for are in a fair way to discover
that the people of the United States do
not take very kindly to imperialism"
