THE nEAMNU AND HESDLT8 OP
TUB EXODUS OP NEGROES.
The negro exodus promises to
'Teach very large proportions in
North Carolina. The Stab has ex
pressed its opinion that the negroes
are free to go and no obstacles should
be put in the way of their departure.
Where they have entered into con
tracts for a given time if possible
they should be prevented from break
ing them. But after all, is it not
safer to let even this class go ? Will
not those negroes who have no sense
of obligation prove a dangerous class
if interfered with in their purposes to
emigrate ? Ton cannot reason with
such creatures for not many of them
are open to the appeals that are in
tended for the understanding and not
for superstition and prejudice. It is
perhaps a good riddance to let the
disturbed element have an escape.
Operated upon by designing men and
allured by promises that are absurd
and baseless they move away and
nothing in the way of candid state
ment or argument will reach them.
So let all go who will.
There is one great mistake that
white men make just here. They are
wrong in thinking that the white
race can ever be dependent npon
the colored race for anything. There
are millions of white laborers await
ing to be asked to come and work
our fields and in our factories. Do
net think that North Carolina will
become a waste howling wilderness
if Sambo and Mose and Cuffy should
go away forever. The highest and
most cultivated intellect in the State
is in no sense a necessity to the
progress and happiness of the State.
As soon as the grave closes tbe
world moves on, business continues,
other toilers and factors come to
the front, and you are feign to
think that no man is important in
this world, whether Kaiser or pea
sant, President or postmaster.
If every negro in the State should
leave in five years you would hardly
realize that they were ever here. The
whites must learn to do for them
selveslearn to labor and to wait.
ytner labor will quickly come in
when the black labor is gone.
Do not understand us to be in
any way inimical to the negroes.
We know them, and in some respects
they are desirable labor. We are
used to them and know how to deal
with them. They are not - the best
workers, but they fill a serviceable
ena iairiy weu, ana it tney were con-
tented it would be best, we suppose,
to have them to remain. But they
will not be worth much as laborers
BO long as they are restive and their
heads are filled with great promises
never to be realized and the reddest
pictures of a Mife somewhere else
placed before their, eyes.
Left to themselves, and, therefore,
not interfered with by lying agents
or manipulating political emissaries
of evil, they are a contented, happy,
docile race. Bat foreign agencies
soon render them worthless and even
turbulent.
The strangest feature of this new
exodus fever that promises to be fills
ed with great results, is the State se
lected whence to carry the negroes
and the Southern State selected
whither to take them. Of all the
States, with perhaps the single ezcep
tion of Virginia, this State is the one
in which the negro has the most lib
erty, his personal and political rights
are most protected, and where he is
at liberty to work out his own dee
tiny under free and equal laws. There
is no bulldozing of negro voters in
North Carolina. We believe that in
all the State last year there was
scarcely one negro elector who was
Interfered with. Bribery is not com-
mon ana Duiiaozing is not practiced.
The negroes vote freeand unmolested
As yet there is no educational or
no property test. He not only votes,
but Sambo now and then slips in two
votea when be can catch the whites
napping. (
Why remove the negroes, or any
part of them from the State where
he is best protected and where he can
vote without restraint? Why take
them to Arkansas? In that State he
will have fewer rights and is sure to
have many serious collisions and that
too where human life is held to be
somewhat cheaper than in North
Carolina or Virginia? If the whites
in Arkansas shall find it neces
sary for their own safety and
preservation to adopt the Australian
system they will do it quickly and
enforce it to the letter and at the
point of the pistol. In Arkansas
there have been some warm times be
tween the races already, and other
conflicts are ahead.
How will the Arkansas whites re
lish the influx of a hundred or 2 hun
dred thousand negroes or even more
if the big plans can be carried out?
Will they allow their State to be
Africanized and then civilization to
take wings? Will they stand their
ormnnsl and finKt. if nnt tn Ilia
r. - I
w A . WAS. UU
outer end, or pack up and go where I
me .aryan race lives unspotted from I
taint of negrodom?
What will be
the issue?
A last thought. Is this a cunning
movement on the part of the North
ern Radicals to capture two Southern
States? Is this a dodge to remove
the negro from North Carolina, di
vide the whites and turn the State
over to Radicalism and Monopoly?
Is this the game? They will be dis
appointed, for the whites are not pre
pared to accept the most immoral
and unrighteous of all political or
economical principles that it is right
to tax a thousand men to make rich
one man and to deprive all freemen I
of the right to sell where they can I
- vau I
sell highest and buy where they can
buy cheapest.
The Northern Plutocrats may
spend their money to try to buy up
North Carolina -with Boodle but they
will fail.- They may Buccced in cap
turing Arkansas bv Africanizincr it. I
In doing this they may erect aHayti
ti a I
right at their door.
TOE TARIFF THAT WASHINGTON
SIGNED.
The funniest thing yet in politics,
is the Republican proposition in the
Pennsylvania Legislature to make an
appropriation to celebrate what?
Guess an hour, or a week, or a year
and. then you would have to give it
up. Why, it is to celebrate the day
on which Washington signed the first
Tariff bill. This is too good. What
sort of a Tariff bill was that Wash
ington approved of think you? Do
you suppose for a moment that it
bore any,the slightest resemblance to
the present Monster War Tariff?
You are very, very green, if you do.
The Philadelphia Record says :
"If the people of the United States could
revive the Tariff act of 1780, imposing
duty averaging 8 per cent upon a few hun
dred articles, and get rid of the Act of
1883, levying an average duty of 47 per
cent, on 4,000 articles, they would, indeed,
have reason for celebrating at Lancaster,
and everywhere else, on the 4th of July and
every other day in the year.
"We have no Idea that our patriotic and
tariff-loving representatives at Harrisburg
ever examined the Tariff act signed by
Washington, and which the patriots of that
day and generation considered sufficient for
the support of the Government and ; for the
encouragement and protection of manufac
turers.'' . The entire Democratic party this
very day will accept with shoutings
and acclaims the Tariff act that
Washington signed. A tax of 8 per
cent. who .would not rejoice in such
a schedule? Let the Rads-m the
Senate, if they would render them-
selves immortalmake glad the heart
of the country, (not the few hundred
SIT r .
thousand Plutocrats .. and Monopo
lists) and deliver the oppressed
workingmen and farmers from the
toils of the Giant Tax Crusher, let
I them -pass the Washington ".Tariff
I bill or one graded at 8 per cent. We
believe every Southern Democrat
will accept it with joy and go forth
with singing. Let them try it.
Bat so far from favoring a Low
Tariff the Republicans are actually
demanding a higher tax than 47.10
per cent. In doing . this thing .Con
gressmen are but obeying the orders
of their masters, the Manufacturers.
The people, are not to be fooled
much longer. The educational cam
I paign begun last year will be con-
tinued through the next four years.
On 82 railroads in the first week
in March the gam was 14.83 per cent
over the ssme week in 1888. For the
second week on 56 roads reported,
the gain was 14.51 per cent.
CURRENT COMMENT.
It is a matter of very little
moment what Gen. Roger A. Pry or
I may think ox the statesmanlike qua!
ties of the men who have come to
the front in politics in the. South
since he left his native State to seek
his fortune elsewhere. Many of them
may not nave measured up to his
standard of "statesmanship," but that
they have met the expectations of
their constituents in the continuous
struggle which has been waged for
years against the aggressive acts of
the Republican party, has doubtless
compensated them for any lack of
appreciation on the part of a gentle
man who thus far has witnessed the
struggle from a distance .NerfoUc
Landmark, Dem.
The worst nomination made
by the present administration is, of
course, that of Mr. Wanamaker, be
cause circumstances give to that gen
tleman's appointment the appearance
of a species of purchase, and strong
ly tend to lower the standard of po
litical ethics. But the most grotes
que of all the appointments made is
that of young Blaine to be the legal
adviser of the State Department. The
post is one requiring the highest or
der, both of ability and learning, and
young Blaine's predecessor in office
was no less eminent a lawyer, scholar
and publicist than Mr. Francis Whar
ton; while the young man who suc
ceeds him has not as yet been recog
nized anywhere as either a lawyer, a
scholar or a publicist. IT. Y. Com

Farrell & Co. vs. R. & D. R. R.

i It is not good practice for the court
to instruct the jury that if they be
lieve a certain state of facts the plain
tiff is not entitled to recover. It is
for the jury to pass upon the issue,
and for the oourt to adjudge upon
the findings whether the plaintiff can
recover or not.
The right of stoppage in transitu
arises upon the insolvency of the
buyer ana is founded on the principle
that one man's goods shall not go to
pay another man's debts. The insol
vency may have existed at the time
of the sale, if not known to the ven
dor at that time. The right of stop
page tn transitu continues until tbe
f oods are delivered to the consignee,
t is paramount to all liens against
the purchase by attachment or other
wise, where the seisure is not a de
i very to the consignee.
A clause in the bill of lading that
the carrier shall have a lien for all
arrearages of freight due by the con
signee on other goods, cannot divert
the consigner's right of stoppage in
transitu. The exercise of the right
revested the right of possession in
the consigners, and no interest in
them was ever acquired by the pur
chaser er consignor on which the lien
for, arrearages could attach." A de
livery to . defeat the right must be
actual, or constructive, and a con-,
structiye delivery can only be by a
valid agreement by the carrier to
noia tor tne .consignee.'. A proposi-
I tion, involving no new consideration,
I leaving the parties in , the same posi-
tion as before, is mot such an agree
ment, altering the possession, as
shows a constructive. delivery. In
the absence of a new contract touch

New York Commercial Chronicle
Friday. March 22. The move
ment of the crop, as indicated by
our telegrams from the South to
night, is given below. For the week
Ending this evening (March 22), tbe
total receipts have reached 84,273
bales, against 80,026 bales last week,
81,633 bales the previous week: mak
ing the total receipts since the 1st
of September, 1888, 5,175,264 bales,
against 5,060,641 bales for the same
period of 1887-8, showing a in
crease since September 1, 1888, of
114,603 bales.
The exports for the week ending
this evening reach a total of 133,203
bales, of whioh 82,207 were to Great
Britain 6,767 to France and 44,229 to
the rest of the Continent.
To-day the market was unsettled,
closing without important change,
the very , full crop movement not
having much effect as against a
stronger Liverpool report, and the
rapid reduction of our stocks. The
strike of the weavers in the cotton
mills at Fall River drags along, but
seems likely to oome to an early end
against the strikers. Cotton on the
i spot was quoted l-loo lower on
Saturday, and 8gain on Monday, al
i tnousb tbe demand for borne con
sumption continued moderate, and
stocks in this market are compara
tively small. To-day a line of 700
bales strict middling was taken for
the Continent, and prices were firm
on the basis of 10o for middling
uplands.
The total sales for forward delivery
for the week are 274.300 bales.

lomctbloc Worth Reading.
'A Tin Roof," is the title of a little book
just issued by Messrs. Merchant & Co., 517
Arch Street, Philadelphia. The purpose of
tne publication is to buddIv to builders, ar
chitects and the general public some exact
information as to the best methods of con
structing a tin roof and as to the right ma
terials to be used to secure satisfactory and
permanent results. We especially recom-
mena tne dook, which is Intended for gra
tuitous distribution, to mill owners. They
are very apt to trust the matter of roofing
wholly to builders, and they;usually know
really very little about the character of the
tin uped or the excellence or the defective
ness of the job. Tbis pamphlet will help
them to protect their interests. It is very
explicit, perfectly comprehensible, and we
think wholly trustworthy. It is quite pro
fusely illustrated and the cuts indicate pro
cesses oi applying tin-roofing which insure
excellence. f
Catarrb Cared.
A clergyman, 'after years of suffering
from that loathsome disease. Catarrh, ana
vainly trying every known remedy, at last
iDuna a recipe wnicu completely cured
and saved him from death. Any sufferer
from this dreadful disease sending a self
addressed stamped envelope to Prof. J. A.
Lawrence, 88 Warren street, New York
City, will receive the recipe free of
charge. f
Tbelr Business Booming
Probably no one thing has caused such a
general revival of trade at Robebt R. Bel
lamy's Wholesale and. Retail Drug Store
as their giving away to their customers of
so many free trial bottles of Dr. King's
.New .Discovery lor Consumption, Their
trade is simply enormous in this very valu
able article from the fact that it always
cures and never disappoints. Coughs,
Colds, Asthma, Bronchitis, Croup, and all
throat and lung diseases quickly cured.
You can test it before buying by getting a
trial bottle free, large size $1. Every bottle
warranted. f
Tbe Popular Approval
Of the efforjs of the California Fig Syrnp
Co. to present to the public an. agreeable
and effective substitute for the bitter nau
seous liver medicines and cathartics for
merly in use, is as gratifying to the Compa
ny as it is creditable to tbe good taste of
the public. The large and rapidly increas
ing sale of Syrup of Figs, and the promptly
beneficial effects of a single dose, are con
vincing proofs that it is the most easily
taken and the most pleasantly effective
remedy known.

I am satisfied that Cancer is hereditary In my fam
ily. My father died of it, a slater of my motaer died
of it, and my own sister died of it. My feelings
may be imagined, then, when the horrible diaeass
made its appearance on my side. It was a malignant
Cancer, eating inwardly In such a way that it could
not be cnt out. Numerous remedies were ased for
it, ym uie cancer grew Sleaaily worse, until it seem
ed that I was doomed to follow the nt.hora nf th.
