THE "WILMINGTON POST.- WILMINGTON. N. C. OCTOBER 21. 1869" The Folly of the South J J t A humpristic writer refers to the absurd ity of sham democrats, seeking to convince people who possess full stomachs, that they, are gylnjpf hunge- and that porerty ia eVen now clutching at the throats of j men whose plethoric pockets give the lie'td the assertion. iNasby may well' declare, u we lost Pensilyany," because this argument was: not a success.;: The present condition of the South proves better than any array of facts or figures that all .the predictions of con-' servative blockheads about ' war of races "relapse into barbarism" and all the myriad! of fictitious woes to follow swift upon1 the! freeing of slaves, was, and : is the merest bosh and selfi3h slanders of men," who after warring Upon the1 mot sacred instincts of our common humanity; 'after leading their dupes into the very mouth of hell; still pre sumed that their power as leaders was not .gone, and that .the masses of the South would believe any and all statements ema-, nttirig from these chiefs of fustion and rant .yclept " States rights Statesmen." The folly of the South has been that these slmllpw brained donkeys ever possessed power, and now is that to-day the remnants !of the mad pack keep up a cry of " sacred ca,Use " lost liberties" and other twaddle when these very scoundrels know that the only " sacred" business neglected by the government was the right to hang for treason, , and the only" liberties infringed upon were, and are, the liberty of. the mis led and abused masses to rise and wreak their vengeance upptf men who led tp de struction and still impudently I claim J that " the South'' should repeat the folly of the past under such men as led the secession movement in 1801. j The folly of the South, we are glad to say, can neve1 be eo great I that j reactionary visions will become realities, j r The j past with its dread baeniories may have no les sons to men wlfolly imbecile or j insane! but the men who work and desire to see others! working have gained control of affairs, and the doom of the professional politician;, and social drone is sealed. , The power lor j mis chief of the former ruling class in the $outh 7 is crone forever, and with it the folly of the South.-: v ; . . Future Wealth. r The future of Wilmington might prosperous as her natural advantages )Q as give her claim to be, did the leading citizens pos sess half the energy wasted in dolefuljcom plaints and idiotic references to "former wealth." The mushroom city of Brunswick 1 - j bids fair to become the great cotton! mart .- of- the Atlantic coast; simply because the property owners are mostly enterprising New York capitalists and understand how to grasp results every day possible, but rap ,nti Tiie rcacn v- jjiu uummumut xxrmrancuTjj weuK and .:, imbecile men. The Savannah papers con- less that the energy of the Brunswick pro-1 prietors gives " good reason for sanguine! belief that the whole sjstem project ed from Brunswick spanning the cotton States, to a junction with the Southern Pa-j ciflc Railroad, on the 32d line, near the Brazos, and debouching from this point tc the Northwest via Montgomery and Mem phis will be accomplished." The port of Wilmington might be the terminus px the ! true Southern Pacific Railway route, viz : the El Paso did our capitalists comprc- 1 hend the grandeur of the scheme, and en-; courage-instead of abuse the Republican representatives who possess power to assist in bringing the wealth of the West to our. aid in improving our trade and enveloping our, resources. ! ' - I What can be done for a placehoweveV, when one ot " its oldest ancl most respecta ble " citizens declares he is " in favor of the city being a sand heap fifty more years rather than any strangers' should come here to live ?" We pause for a reply. It is an old saying tliat chickens gener ally 0omc home to roost ; and there is some: indication that one 'of A. Johnson's chick en's may come home to him much sooner than he wishes. The Nazlu: ills Press and, Tkncs, speaking of the! right which every legislative body has to protect itself by ex-: eluding obnoxious members, cities the case, of the Hon. JesseD. Bright, of Indiana, who! was expelled from the Senate by a resolution offered by the Hon. Andrew Johnson, then; Senator from Tennessee. The latter sup ? ported his resolution by a forcible speech 4n Which he" showed that though ho overt; act of treason was charged against Mr. '-Bright he was believed to be a dangerous man, and the Senate had an undoubted right to protect itself by- expelling him. Mr. "Johnson showed by reference and argu ment that the Senate had Supreme author ity over its own organization, and that the safety of the people was its highest law. The question is naturally suggested, there fore, whether if Mr. Johnson himself be chosen to represent Tennessee in Washing ton, the Senate of the United States may not follow his own precedent and refuse him a seat on account of his indecorous attacks on Congress, and thVcontempt which he has tried to cast upon its law. It will be well, concludes The Press, for tho Legislature of Tennessee to reflect seriously before it sends a man to.Washington who may be sent back by an insulted Senate, determined to main tain its own dignity. f Young gentlemen at a college will appre ciate Heine's witty .remark jthat "The Ro maris would neverhave found time to con querthp'worid if they had been first oblig ed to learn Latin. This happy people," said heknew in their cradles what nouns have an accusative in tw." 1 m Axl who want rare! seeds and valuable pjants fqr experimlnta AgiicuHure would do well to "write the "(jommissioner of the Department of Agriculture. S. The president of the Argentine - Agricul tural Society writes to the bommissioner that he h&s sent, through the United States consul at Buenos Ayres, a- collection of the seeps of their native plant, cpmprising such as are useful in the. arts and medicine. as well'" as some showy ornamental ones; also, seeds of a plant largely used there for ive fences on account of its thorns. It grows in the mountains south of Buenos Ayres, lat itude about 40, and may prove a valuable acquisition to ; some parts of jour country. The president has also made arrangements for gathering for the agricultural exhibit' on at Cordova a full collection of the native seeds of the fourteen provinces that! will be rep-: resented there, to be sent to the department at the close of the exhibition. Manv of these j . particularly such as have originated in the higher latitudes of the republic, it is thought may prove valuable and worthy of introduc tion to the United States. ! California claims that its interests in the future, will be more with the West than the ' - ii i . East. West of California, indeed ! Why it seems but yesterday that Buffalo was the West then Cleveland, Ohio then Colum bus, Cincinnati, then St. Louis, then Jeffer son City, then KansasJ and the Territories beyond, tlien Utah, California and Oregon, the Columbia River, &c. ; but now an Amer ican State, only a week from New York, declares that there is a West west of the Pacific say at the Sandwich Islands, Japan or China which instead oLbeing West, are in the far East, or at j the antipodes of hc United States. i Since in ninety days! the globe can be en compassed by sea and land, the world seems to be literally upside down. What musi Co lumbus now think, if, through the glimpses of the spirit land, he is permitted to, survey the new world, its steamers, railroads, and a people not content with steam but very ambitious to fly from ocean j to ocean, on board of some winged ship ? land even this is possible. Tnfe unreconstructed vigor of the Star glimmerings lately, proves one of two things: either that the editor has lately visited Vir ginia to see the restoration of the " lost cause," or else the luminary liath engaged another satellite. Thus doth jhe shine : " The Southern people know the unselfish fidelity with which Jefferson Djavis sustained their sacred cause." Can madness further go ? Is the " sacred i cause" still an object for praise in the glim merer, when all know that cause beggared the land and made the working people so sick of men of the Davis stripe hat his very name is synonymous of selfishness, cru elty and diabolical crazines of purpose. The Star people must be mad to excite the anger of its few white supporters, and we f-hacn T cn thusUax laudations. Am nf youth in the shape of Davis The Italians have resolved! not to be be hind the other nationalities in this country, in the matter of their honorary anniversa ries. -The Scotch had their Burns, tne Ger mans their Humboldt, the English their apocryphal St. George, and the Irish their traditional St. Patrick. Our Italians, in-the same retrospective spirit, have been cele brating the landing of Columbus in the New World as good an anniveisary as any of the others, though some may be disposed to think of it in a slighting way. The courageous Columbus, 4i the man of two worlds, well deserves his day ofj remembrance and on any spot of American gronnd. And still further, should the Scandinavians be for an anniversary if they can make out the date for Leif, son of Eric, who once did something also in; the way of discovery, we do not sue why they should not enjoy it. " . ..X i or some wise reason iraitors arc per mitted to live and a political Judas may exist long after his name has become odious as suggesting only dishonor and treachery Thus Andrew Johnson enjoys all the above blessings and fears arc expressed that Salmon P. Chase, by his action in the larger matter will bring up the question of reconstruction so that Congress will again have tq step in and save us from another four years of anarchy ; social misery and impoverished business. The Washington Chronicle thus refers to the matter : The counsel for Yergcr seem to be confi dent that the court will affirm its jurisdic tion, and, if so, the argument on the writ itself will then proceed. The Attorney Gen eral has suggested a reasonable delay, but the parties to the case are in haste, and the opinion prevails that the writ will be issued before the first of November, and perhaps this very week. Of course nobody can au thoritatively foreshadow the opinions of tho judges, but the belief is that they will stand five to three Greer, Swayne, and Miller being against the exercise of juris diction in the matter. It is to be regretted that Congress is not in session The effect of a decisio i against reconstruction for that is what the counsel of Yerger are look ing for will probably constrain the Execu tive to some action to save unreconstructed States like Mississippi and Texas from a worse fate, almost, than the rebellion itself. His counsellors are to be found in a Repub lican Congre'ss and in a patriotic people. Should the Supreme Court assdme extraor dinary powers, and attempt, in ulttcr defiance of all precedent, to overthrow the laws in tended ttf restore the revolted States, under republican institutions, to their relations to the Government, the Executive and Con gress must find a remedy for the evil. , T -. - The Sentinel on the rums of pro-slavcry- i?m condoles with its brother Joilrnal of this city.

The question "arises whether black republican money will sustain the; barn yard Sentinel two years longer. We hope hot TDK following very ; wise remarks wll ; be useful to loanyadies who ignorantly in- dulcco In stimulants without knowing the dangerous character ol the same : Medical men in all parts of the world have startling facts brought to their know- ledge in reference to, iaraiiy anairs. fortunate for thWpeace" of households 1 that aociors, as a ruie, eei a guaru upua iucji tongues, and that Jit is deemed a .breach .of professional etiquette to disclose the secrets they learn in the course of their' practice..; 1 The "mysterious maladies" which alarm the heads of households are frequently to be traced to the deleterious compounds sold as "bitters," and warranted by the makers tp cure half the diseases flesh is heir to. The basis ot these mixtures is nothing but whis ky, flavored and disguised to give some excuse for the pretext under which it is sold. . Analysis will e'aaw that what , is rci presented as a glass of . healthy bitters is, almost always theAJircean cup, destined to acquire an increasing influence- over the un happy dupe who drains it, until at last she becomes hopelessly degraded. The victims are chiefly women, for when men want td drink they can find plenty of opportunities ol doing it openly. They can ask for whisl ky over a counter without exciting scandal But a woman cannot walk into a barroom and call for, "burbon" or "rye." It is for her, therefore, that preparations of tStteisj under all sortsof fantastic names, are scat-i tered broad-cast over the land. She is ini nocentof any ill intention i.n taking themi She is not aware that he is really ruining her constitution by imbibing daily doses of alchohol. But in the course of time her hus band notices that her health is failing. Her nervous system. is deranged, her appetite disappears, she rises in the morning tireoj and feverish, her heap is always aching; her-hand shakes, and he is sui ject to con stant depression of spirits. The husband looks on at these symptoms with pain and grief, but he i3 at a loss to account for them, because he does not! suspect the demon which lurks in the apparently harmless bot tle of "bitters" etowed away in the cup board. He tries chaqge of air, but it does no good, and no wontler the fatal bottle goes with his wife, in her trunk. At last the doctor is called in, and he at once detects in the unfortunate woman all the disastroii? effects of hard drinking. We have heard on good authority that the patient is sometimes discovered to be on the very verge ot delirium tremens ! The hqrror of the husband, when this fact comes to his knowledge, may be imagined; but although his wife may be temporarily cured, the evil ascendency too often returns, and the flower Oi her life is crucllv noisoned.. . Mg -gas- ; Commissioner W'ells, in reply to a letter from Liverpool givc3 the following interest ing and valuable facts as to the financial condition and prospects of the country : Dear Sir : Iu answer to the inquiry in your note ol" the Gth as to the probable sur plus revenue of the United States which can be maue apniicaolc during tne current ns- cal year for a' further and continued reduc tion of the public debt, I will, in place of giving you a direct and specific opinion, ask your attention to the following ngures; Tho accounts of the Treasury for the fiscal 3 ear whiih ended on the oOth of June last have not yet been fully completed ; but enough is at present known to make it cer tain that the excess of receipts over expen ditures was at least $43,000,000 il c, re ceipts, $371,000,000 5 expenditures $322,000,- " Is no radical change in tne lav imposing" taxation or in the business of the country can be immediately anticipated, we are warrantel in believing that the above sur plus will at least be continued during, the current year, and we therefore assume it as the basis ot our estimate. To this amouqt must ue added two speci fic items of expenditure provided for out of current receipts during the last fiscal year, and must, therefore, be reckoned as a net gain to the Treasury, vis: $18,000,000 to complete the payments forextra bounties and $7,200,000 gold (equivalent to $9,500, 000 currency) disbuised in payment of the Alaska purchase. i - The present annual elasticity of- the revc7 nue, or its increase from the increase of the country in wealth and population, will average-at present $15,000,000, while the guin from the rigid system ot economy inaugur ated by the present administration and from a more faithful collection of its taxes will undoubtedly equal and probably exceed, 130,000,000. The sum ot the several items will be found to be $120,000,000, wtiich approximately indicate, the amount of surplus revenue which is likely to be placed at the disposal of the Treasury during the current fiscal year, and made applicable for the further reduction of the national debt. It only remains for mc to call your attcur tion to the fact that an annual investment of $100,000,000 at six per cent, in a sinking fund will extinguish the entire principal of our debt in less than fifteen years ; pr if the contribution to the sinking fund be limited to $50,000,000 per annum at six per cent.. (and a smaller contribution than this is not in accordance with popular sentiment), tho lawwill only be extended to twenty-three year? ; and between those periods you have, in my opinion,, the exact time, when the present public debt of the United States will be extinguished. ' A 'coTEMroiiAUY referring to the failure of exceedingly learned . men, when placed in charge of newspaper?, very properly re marks : . It is just as impossible to educate a mau to be an editor as it is to make a poet a painter. Beecher told the truth when he said that "ink; beats like blood in the veins of a true editor' There is no forcing a taste for it. It i3 simply and solely a mat ter of birth and of blood, and will unmis takably, make itself known. As one of our exchanges puts it : "Raymond was born an editor. So Were Bennett and Greely. Bigelow was not, and fails with surprising quickness." People who know nothing about newspapers imagine that a good writer must be a good editor. It happens that good writers, as they are called, are otten worthless in a newspaper office, and that nothing damages a newspaper more thaiT the attempted fine writing 'which is so common- There are occasions which call for the highest skill in the expression of thoughtrand the use of language, but those are comparatively rare, and. the man, who has made a reputation as a writer of well rounded periods, is often, . quite aboveor below.he real work of the editoiial tread mill. ' A Christian correspondent reminds U3 that the sarcastic remark of the editor of the Star about converted .rebels making good Republicans," is sarcasm thrown away, u for do not converted sinners make the best of christians ? . ' Oub copperhead cotemporaries i are slmg- mg the ink of condolence quite lively. One heavy headed old journal refers with confi dence to 1872, and another to the fact that " the Republicans barely saved them selves this : election! and two year3 from hence will certainly lose hevery thing." I I4ke the foolish virgin referred to ia the ponce reports, ine democracy ieei mat ineir sinful failure 4his time - was " such - a little one.' The increased prosperity of the National Freed man's Banks, is a subject for congrat ulation among the friends of the colored people. The official returns from Wash ington show greatly increased deposits in every one of the late slave States. Ho greter proof is needed of the growth pf thrift and industrious habits among : our laboring population. Our next issue will contain a letter from the State Fair at Raleigh, and wc hope our friends will duly appreciate the labors of our 41 Special Correspondent." The Democracy and the People. It is really pitiful; to see the quivering of the occe "unterrihed.-' JSot the fabled Keg ulus, with his" eyelids torn away:, and his uncurtained eyes exposed to the noontide glare of the Carthagenfan sun, recoiled more sensitive! v than does now the Democratic Party from the fiejry eye of the people. Everywhere it is all'the same nothing but shrinking and evasion.? Instead of plunging recklessly into the fight as of old, they are all taken up with the thought of avoiding close quarters, and fco shifting as to escape further punishment They would give all the world to -get in a telling blow upon the 'Administration, -but can find no point "where they durst p'ant themselves to attempt it. If thc-v try the national debt, and open ever so shyly upon the only alternatives-repudiation, they prick the people's honesty '-and rous-j an auger which threatens to' isuinihilate I hem. , They are no better off ii they make a bolt at the President's strict and libicil policy of re construction, ior tiierc again tliey wound the people's old-fashioned-loyidty and love'pf or der. What makes it '.til the worse is that J they cannot shake off their old notdriecy, and are suspected at every glance and turn. Their past sins are stifl so fresh in the recol lection that, by an inevitable law of asso ciation, the people connect therewith all present Democratic! motives and designs. Every movement is referred to the lingering disposition of the time when the party prac tically turned against the Government, and sided with traitors. It is felt that the at tempt to balk reconstruction is all ot a piece with the attempt to Ibalk the war which saved us from destruction that the temper which opposed the raising of a dollar is just the temper which w'onM refuse the payment ot every dollar that (the spirit which was factiously hostile to the patriotic devotion of President Lincoln ii precisely that which is now engaged in hostility to President Grant. No amount ot protestation or sophis tical explanation helps the matter. All that has been tried to the last possibility, and the only result has been sorer punishment than ever. The people will: not give up their old memories. Their old instincts and reason ings will stick. Tbjc party, alter a great deal of vain struggling, ' has become sensible of the actual case, and it . of (loo in. we i ' lis upon .ueru like a sense In ?pite of ail tiuir there is no withstuhding the luree a 'gainst them. They are ns icom)letely dtmoraiized a3 were even the rct'el$ in the hist stage of the war. J It is needless to s$y that this cannot last. The very vitality ot tiny party is in its strong hopeful spirit. Thtl . day Aa ends decay begins. A spiritless; party is a dying party. It lives only to'piue fide and thrive!, and to drop away by inahes into its original ele ments. It may bo that outright dissolution will not overtake the Democratic Party for many years to co 11104 But that matters lit tle. The mere funqal organization is noth ing. . When a party gets too week to be longer formidable, it ceases to exist for any practical purpose. IWithout; the abiiity to regain public confidence and its old power having rendered all retreat to old principled ridiculous, and to old.regards impossible, the Democratic Party has actually nothing left to live for. The utmost it can do is mischief. ZVr. Y. 2'imc. OF A L L rr-.- MAGISTRATE'S CLANKS, COURT BLANKS AFFIDAVITS j .SDMM.OICS, etc.. BUSINESS CARDS, LElTTER HEADINGS, !
