strong admixture Of Chinese blood,
especially in the northern islands.
The Malay and Mongoloid currents
appear to have met on these islands.
There is small percentage OF pure
bred Spaniards on most OF the Islands
and a much larger admixture OF Gre
ole Spaniards and half breeds. IN
like the method of government adop-
ted by Spain in it's colonies, its RUE
in the Philippines has not been con-
sidered severe. ...
Before the discovery by Magellan,
the Arabs had opened conmun1ca-
ton with the islands and Mohamedan
missionaries endeavored to convert
the natives to Islam. The Spaniards
preached the religion of Christ. Thus
Arabia and Spain, the crescent anc
the cross, stood face to face in the
Philippines at the beginning of the
sixteenth century, and for nearly four
hundred years these two religious
forces have contended for supremacy.
The native races are still mostly
pagan.
Manila, the capital Of the Philip
pines and the chief city of Luzon,
contains a population of 33O, 900, prin-
cipally Spanish creoles, Chinese half
breeds and the original natives. The
bay of Manila, the largest and finest
in the world, could offer anchorage
to the united fleets Of Europe.
The commerce Of the islands with
other nations is large and constantly
growing, that the United States
being Of very great Importance. With
the acquisition of the islands this
commerce will be increased manifold.
Let us hope that it may serve also to
raise the people from their barbarous
and semi-barbarous condition to a
higher and grander plane of civil
cation.

ish succeeded so we'll to keep us in
ignorance, at last bobbed up in the
West Indies at Martinique, one of the
Windward Islands, belonging to
France. There they took on coal
and supplies. From there the squad
ron sailed southwest and was next
heard OF at Curacao, a small island
belonging to Holland, north of the
coast. OF South America. Nothing
has been heard OF the Spanish fleet
since, whetherit is still cruising in the
Caribbean sea, gone to Porto Rico, or
is advancing toward Havana. Ad-
miral Sampson, after the lombard
ment OF San Juan, returned towards
Cuba, but his exact movements are
not revealed. The Spanish feet is
somewhat swifter than ours and can
probably evade a battle if it chooses,
unless cornered up and compelled to
fight. A great naval battle is not
improbable in the near future.
Schley's squadron has sailed also to-
wards Cuba. Either SIMPSONS or
Schley's squadron alone are consid-
cred more than a match for the Cape

The emancipation celebration held on Mon
Gay was attended by large crowd of ne.
groes who came net only from the immediate
vicinity of this city but from all parts oil
Sumter county. The most important faa-
tures.of the celebration were the addresses OF
Ex-Congressnan George W. Murray, and
Rev. Richsrd Carroll, of Columbia. The
speech of the former vas not particularly
noteworthy as it was slen2 the usual line and
differed not materially from speeches delivered
on previous occasions by him
The address of Rev. Richard Carroll was q
noteworthy deliverance in more ways than
one, so much SO that it ia given 10 full in
order that it may be read and it's excellence
appreciated by those who did not hear it and
would otherwis eremain unscouainted with it,
The address speaks for itself and it is to be
sincerely hoped that iss truth will carry con-
viction to those to whom it was addressed
tho negroes of South Carolioa, who have been
so grievonsly misied in the past and have
suffered 30 serionsly for their errors.
The speech was well received by the large
concourse of oegroes and the celebration
passed off without an unpleasant incidens.
