FIGHTING JOE SPEAKS.
The Nashville Banner is
authority that Hon. W J Wood
received a letter from Gen.
Wheeler, , in which he says: . "I
am delighted with the Philippine
islands. I have no doubt that a
little rush and energy this fall
will "rasa out the Aguinaldo in
surrection. Out of 9,000,000 of
people I do not think he has
more than 20,000 soldiers and in
a square fight 5,000. Americans
would tear them to pieces. All
that is necessary to crush them
'a once is for the army to get at
,th jm till the work is done. The
evil, features of the islands have
been exaggerated to our people.
The action of some of the people
in ,,he United States in asserting
that the peopled the Philippines
ought to .ave independence does
a great deal of harm and assists
Aguinaldo in maintaining the in
surrection, as he publishes all
the assertions and tells his sup
porters if they hold out until
winter independence will be
given them."
, ' It does seem that the evidence
is cumulative, that the prevailing
tones of sympathy for these rev
olutionary Filipinos and the
caustic denunciations of our gov
ernment in trie Philippine affairs
are not warranted in cause and
are not politic in effect.
THE STORY AGAIN.
. A Jackson, Miss., dispatch of
the 6th, says:
"Hunter Johnson, a white
citizen, .while hunting in Pearl
rh r swamp, east of ; the cityy
several days ago, discovered a
box containing nearly 50,000.
The money was encased in an
iron case and is in gold pieces,
nearly all of them $20 denomina
tion. It is is thought the money
is a war treasure. All of the
coins bear date prior to 1850."
Such ephemeral stories engage
public attention ever and anon,
but when you attempt to lay
your hand on the fortunate
finder he is always at the end of
the rainbow.
Movements In the Philippines.
Stirring events seem about to
be inaugurated in, the Philip
pines and if lingering rains do
not too mnch interfere the great
' f oi ward liio vement may be looked
lor. - ;
The Philadelphia Record
says: 4
'iThe movement of troops
from three directions against the
decimated insurgent forces on
Luzon Island may be regarded
as the beginning of the end of
organized resistance to Federal
authority in -the Philippines.
Thirty thousand men, under Gen.
Wheaton on th& north, Gen. Mc
Arthur on the south and Lawton
to the eastward, are closing in on
the disintegrated army of Agu
inaldo, which is now cen cen
tra ted at a point about twenty
miles of the Filipino "govern -ment."
; If this effort to trap
the rebel leader shall be success
ful nothing worse than guerilla
fighting will have to. be- done
thereafter to assert and main
tain the supremacy, of American
authority . over ...the whole
archipelago.

Dividing the Dominions.
For some- years the Samoan
Islands have been a bone of con
tention with Germany averse to
policies on which England ttnd
the United States were harmo
nious. At'' times the I contention
has been somewhat alarming for
the mutual good -will of these
great powers. A treaty is about
to be consumated, which will
make an equitable and satisfac
tory division of islands needed
by each, so that each shall have
exclusive dominion over its own.
Strange, is it not, that
Mitchell county now enjoying the
unenviable reputation of being
the most lawless and dangerous
county in the State in which to
live for a white man, and doubly
so for a negro, is the banner Re
publican county in the State. In
some sections of. the county we
learn a negro is not allowed to
live.
A little rumbling ifter the
storm in France comes in the
way of finding Count Esterhazy
guilty of swindling. He was
sentenced to three years impris
onment, a small fine and the dis
gorging of 35 '000 f ranees of his
swindling. Stretching hemp
attached to his upper spinal
coll' .xin would probably be a ver
dict of more universal approvel.

For Sleeplessness. ,
The following is recommended
as a cure for sleeplessness:
"Wet a hVlf towel, apply it to the
back of the Heck,' pressing: it
upward toward the base of the
brain, and fasten the dry half
of the towel over so as to prevent
the too rapid" exhalation. The
effect is prompt and charming.
