I . ' TEE ERA. official Orpaa of (lie 1nJte States Official Organ of the City, W. M. BKOWX, Manager. THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1874. The tendency of the Democratic rule in the South, as foreshadowed by its orators and press, Is the total annihilation of the colored race. They look upon the negro as our ancestors looked upon the red man, and forgetting, as we charitably conclude they do, that there Is more than a difference between the negro and the Indian, they turn their bat teries of hatred against the negro, and embrace every opportunity fair and unfair to cripple as a citizen, the colored man, and in many in stances, personal violence, resulting in the death of the negro, is the sad result. It is worthy of remark, that for some time after the emancipation of the negro, our Southern white peo ple exhibited a better feeling toward them they acted with more liberal vies in fact, there seemed to be much of christian charity manifest ed for the poor slave, just ushered into the sunshine of liberty, and it really did seem that the unpleas ant ne was at an end, and that Ieace and good will would hence forth reign in the South. As the sequel has proven, the beautiful picture was but a surface painting. The rod yet held over these wicked people, rendered them for the time, humble and obedient they were looking for amnesty and pardon, and they could afford to hide their truecolors for the time. Amnesty and pardon came ; the U. S., full of forgivenness and mer cy, said to these her obedient children, 'go in peace and sin no j more" and they went but they went back to their "first love," and to-day, if we are to judge from act ual outrages daily being perpetra ted, the feeling of hatred against the colored race is more intense among certain whites of the South than was ever the feeling of hatred against the red men, the original and only proper owners of the land we now occupy. The eyes 0f the whole civilized world look with utter astonishment at the conduct of the South so soon after reconstruction ! This aston ishment is increased when, it will bo remembered, the gallows was cheated of its prey, when the trait orous crew were pardoned and again invested with all the rights and privileges of citizenship ! Embold ened by the mercy extended by the government, every thing we see and hear has the appearance and the sound of new preparations for resistance to the old flag ! As tests of the determination of the govern ment to force an observance of the conditions of reconstruction, the Ku Klux Democracy in Tennessee, (icorgia and Kentucky are murder ing in cold blood, inoffensive color ed men and under the pretext of "vindicating society," they force ojx'ti prisons and take therefrom colored men, and without trial, or granting the poor wretches an hour of preparation, they shoot them with a thousand balls, or hang them to the first limb. As a dare to the national author ities, the Ku Klux Democracy halt ed a train of cars in Alabama, and took from ho mail car, the agent, and hung him, for no offense, save that of being a colored man ! Lot us hope that the better por--tion of the Southern Democracy disapproves such conduct; still, we can only nope, knowing that the iK'tter portion, if there be such a class, could command and compel the Press of their party to desist from language calculated to educate the wicked mind to Just such acts of violence. If wo would be prosperous and happy, we must obey the laws of our country in this, is the true se cret of Peace. But the laws of the land will be broken and trampled under foot, tio more, with impunity ! Mark the prediction! Swift and suro justice will be meted out to that State whoso local authority is found insufficient to procure for its citizens, that protection, and thoso rights, which are theirs. It is es timated that in the . Democratic State of Georgia alone, one hundred negroes are killtd daily the civil rights bill, not yet a law, being the pretext for these murders ! So common has become the murder ing of negroes in the South, that the attention of the government has been officially called to the fact, and we are not unprepared to hear at any moment that the President has determined to call Congress togeth er at an early day, to consider the state of affairs in the South. While it Ls a matter of congratu lation that our own State has not relapsed Into barbarism, we have looked at the tendency of the de mocracy with many forebodings, and with trembling. That a dispo sition to browbeat and Intimidate the colored people has manifested itself, during the summer, ho fair minded reader will deny. The Press of the party have Indulged almost daily in the most disgusting language In regard to the colored race. All kinds nf insults have been offered, and yet, we are at peace owing, for the most part, to the great forbearanco of the colored race, and the counsel of the white Republicans. j Were we called upon to point out such papers, we should point to the entire Democratic Press. If requir ed to particularize, we should name the Southern Home, edited by D. II. Tf ill rvmfpderate General, as the leading spirit, and after the Home the whole pack yelp the same mu sic! As a sample of the feeling of hat red to the colored people, in North Carolina, we copy the following from the Home of August 21. Al lowance mut bo made for the at tempted wit (!) at the expense of human life. We boil down the ar ticle, and we find the editor sorry because no negroes were killed. Here is the article : "It turned out badly there were only four wounded no casualties. We allude to the colored excursion that left Charlotte on Sunday, and became embroiled (the normal des tiny of Ham) with some other ne groes at King's Mountain, S. C The fight began In the whisky shop and extended until the crowd was pretty nearly evenly divided. Knives, pistols, razors, slungshots, clubs, bludgeons, rocks, and every other weapon known to Ethiopia's sable sons, were freely used, and yet (mournfully) there were no casu alties ! Why, Tump Ponder's mule could do better than that ; its elon gated dexter perambulator has al ready translated five saddle-colored voters to the "Happy Hunting Grounds," as easily as you could knock a fly off your ear. It's a great disappointment all that row, and no casualties " This is a very meagre sample; yet, it is easily seen what are the wishes and what the ultimate design in regard to the colored race. As North Carolina only retired from the Union, after it was crushed out between Virginia and South Caro lina, let it not follow in the wake of such States as Georgia and Ten nessee, in setting at defiance the common law or tne lanu. n we have good and loyal men even among the Democracy, let them come to the surface, and frown down every act that looks like a breach of faith with the general govern ment. Let the finger of scorn si lence the newspaper scribblers who would again plunge our beloved country into a civil war a war of races a war a thousand times more to be dreaded than a war between sections. We appeal to the good men of both races and all parties ; we appeal in behalf of the women and children of the country ! P. S. Since writing the above, President Grant has very promptly and properly taken measures to put down lawlessness in the South. We copy his letter to Secretary of War Belknap : " Long Branch, N. J., September 2, 1874. General W. W. Belknap, Secretary of War : The recent atrocities in the South, particularly in Louisiana, Alabama and South Carolina, show a disre gard for civil rights and personal protection that ought not to be tol erated in any civilized government. It looks as if unless speedily check ed matters must become worse until life and property there will receive no protection from the local author ities until such authority becomes powerless. Under such circum stances it Is the duty of the govern ment to give all the aid for the protection of life and civil rights legally authorized. To this end I wish you would consult with the Attorney General, who is well in formed as to the outrages already committed and the localities where the greatest danger lies, and so or der troops as to bo available In cases of necessity. All proceedings for the protection of the South will bo under the direction of the law de partment of the government, and will be directed by the Attorney General in accordance with the pro visions of the Enforcement Acts. No instructions need, therefore, be given the troops ordered into the Southern States, except as they may be transmitted from time to time on advice from the Attorney General or as circumstances may determine hereafter. Yours truly, U. S. GRANT." The latter day piety of Ex-Confederate President Jefferson Davis, serves only to provoke a smile of contempt from those who know the man and his early and late history. We are aware that we run the risk of being accused of a lack of Christian Charity, when we as sert as our candid opinion and te Iicf, that the late speech of Jeffer son Davis is a bit of hypocritical cant. The speech to which we al lude was made by the Ix-Confed-erate President, at an indignation meeting held by citizens of Memphis to express their disapprobation of the recent acts of lawlessness in several of the Southern States, in which the negro has been murdered by scores, in cold blood, by the dis ciples of the said Jefferson Davis. Mr. Davis is reported as having de livered himself after this wise, and in the following language: " Every Southern man in his memory runs back to the negro woman wno nursed him ; to the boy who hunted and fished with him ; to the man who first taught him to ride and swim ; and, as he grew to manhood, the cordial wel come given by the old nurse, with a tenderness scarcely inferior to that of his own mother." It is possible the ruffians may have carried out orders a. little in excess, but that they have carried out to the letter the programme of the party, we have not the least doubt, and it comes with a bad grace from Mr. Davis the expounder and leader of the Southern Democracy that he should shed tears over the memory of his black mammy, and the strong nourishment drawn from her enslaved breast, when he was In the front to keep her in chains, and her children in the cotton fields under the lash of a heartless over-, seer. The picture is a true one ! Yea, verily, and no one knew more of the good qualities of the slave mother than the Mississippi plan ters,5 whose white children were cared for by them, and whose ten der care made the luxury so much admired now, and affectionately remembered ! Davis is not the only man in the South who fucked a colored mammy. We would not be far wrong, if we should estimate one-tenth of the lives of the chil dren of slave owners as being in debted to the milk drawn from the breasts of women in slavery. And this fact alone, in our humble opin ion, is sufficient to deter white men from murdering the very mothers and their offspring, whose black bodies nourished them and reared them into manhood. If the language uttered by Jeff. Davis had fallen from the lius of our own worthy fellow-citizen, the venerable Judge Battle, we could believe in its sincerity but coming as it does, and under the peculiar circumstances, we can only see in it that gross hypocrisy which crops out. when the strong arm of the 7 - government is being upraised to punish the fiends who are again in open rebellion. Opinion of the Attorney Gen eral. EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT, Statk of Nortii Carolina, Raleigh. Aug. 28, 1874. Hon. T. L. Hargrove, Attorney General: Sir I have received a petition signed by the county officers and other promi nent citizens of Washington county re questing me to appoint a County Com missioner to fill the place of a man who was elected as such in said county on the first Thursday of August, 1874, and who. as the petitioners state, will refuse to qualify. Now I wish to know whetherin your oninion. it is the dutv of the Governor x to appoint a Commissioner in compli ance with the request of the petitioners, or can the men elected as such, and who nen elected as sucn, ana wuo qualify, lawfully complete choose to their organization by the election of an other County Commissioner. Very respectfully, Your ob't servant, C. II. BROGDEN, Governor. Attorney General's Office, Raleigh, N. C, 29th A"Gg., 1S74. To His Excellency, Curtis H. Brogden, Governor Sir: Yours of the 28th inst., statin; that 3'ou " have received a petition sign al liv ilio county officers and other prominent citizens of Washington coun- tv rwnipstiiicr me ivou) to appoint a - J X o ' County Commissioner to fill the place of a man who was elected as such in said county on tho first Thursday of August, 1874, and who, as the petitioners state will refuse to qualify," and asking 'whether in my opinion it is the duty of the Governor to appoint a County Com missioner in compliance with the ro- quest of the petitioners, or can the men elected as such, aud w ho choose to qual ify, lawfully complete their organization by Jhe election of another County Com missioner," has been received There is no express provision made in the Vllth Article of the constitution, nor in any other Article, for filling va cancies in the Board of County Commis sioners. The first Section of Article VII provides that in each county there shall bo elected biennially, by the qualified voters therof, live commissioners. A county is a municipal corporation, so described in the constitution, Article VII, and its .powers can only be exer cised by a ' Board of" County "Com misiioners," as they are styled in the same Article. " The corporate authori ties have an inherent right to till vacan cies " in the Board. And there has been appropriate legislation to enable County Commissioners to II 11 vacancies" in their Board. It was first provided, "that any vacancy occurring in tho Board of Commissioners of any county shall be filled by the Governor of the State.' See laws of spe-ial session of 1SG8, chap ter 4, proviso to section 1, page 0. Af terwards the General Assembly, lawsof 1S70-'71, chapter 70, section 1, page 139, repealed so much of the law of 1SG3 as provided for filling vacancies in the Board of County Commissioners by the Governor, and further provided that va cancies " shall be filled by a majority of said Board." This seems to be the law at this time. In support of the view that this legislation is appropriate and constitutional, I bog leave to refer your Excellency to the case of People of N. C. eas rel. Nichols et al.. vs. McKee el al., GS X. C. Reports, page 437. The opinion of the Court seems to refer to this very legislation ; at any rate, the principles enunciated sustain it as proper and con stitutional. My opinion therefore is. that it is not now and will not be when the vacancy occurs, the duty of a Gov ernor to appoint a County Commission er. And in case the person elected shall refuse to qualify, then it will be the duty of the other members of the Board to qualify and then themselves elect some one to fill the vacancy. Very respectfully, Your ob't serv't, T. U HARGROVE, I Attorney General. A man by the name of Perkins, says the Hlllsboro Recorder of the 2d inst.; lias been lodged In the Orange comity jail charged with stealing books, carpeting, and the portrait of Dr. Caldwell, from the Philanthropic library of tho Uni versity of Chape! Hill. llow Kicli Men Summer. It is bad enough to be detained in the city all summer by pressing work or by poverty. It Is much better to bo kept in tho same place by riches. Oh ! but nobody is confined there by being too wealthy to leave. Then those vera cious chroniclers, the papers, do not tell the truth. Here is the record they make as to some of tho richest men of New York : , c i Among those who will be much in town is Commodore "Vanderbilt, who is getting too old to go off summering. He has a fine place on Staten Island, ten miles down the bay, but the old gentle man shows great dislike to going thith er. Perhaps one reason is the fact that the family vault is there. The Commo dore has not been down to Staten Island for several years, except on funeral oc casions, when his daughter was buried, and also his first wife. Tho next trip, no doubt, will be his own funeral. He loves the world intenselj', and although his young wife has induced him to make a large donation to a college, yet it is a small matter to one of his wealth. The Comm. dore may mako a short excur sion, but nowhere can he find any such comforts as at home. Afctor and Stewart are but little out of town during the summer. Astor has a farm at Barry town, on the Hudson River Railroad, and hero he was wont to pass a part of the season ; but he now finds himself comfortable in his Filth avenue man sion. Stewart also lives in Fifth avenue, having the finest house in America, aud hence, although he has a farm at Tuca hoe, he seldom vists it. Peter Cooper will also pass tho largest part of the summer in town, and so will George Law. These men find nothing conge nial in the wild excitement of a water ing place, and hence prefer a quiet life at home. James Lennox is one of the few men of great wealth who spend the summer out of town. He has owned a villa at New Post for many years, and has a tenant family in it all the year round. During tho summer he resorts thither, generally accompanied by his maiden sister, and being a bachelor, ho thus takes all his family with him. William M. Vanderbilt spent a few days at Sharon, and then returned to apply himself to business. Cranberry Fortune. A merchant of Chicago was in- duced by two friends to invest with them in a land speculation at some distance off the purchase was made, and the parties divided the land in three parts, keeping the two best locations, as they supposed, for themselves, and appropriating the other third to the absent partner : for some years he continued to pay a A'"uW.Wp.jr taxes for it, Without ever Having seen it; but finally becoming ruined 1 1 41 1 1 1 1 A m traae, ne Demougnc mmseu 10 visit his distant property, when, .to his friends had palmed upon him an apparently worthless swamp. The N. Y. Independent thus tells the balance of the story: "Sighing just a little at the du plicity of his friends, he wandered over the swamp he almost disdained to call his own, and splashed through its mud and water in des perate hopelessness. Poverty and want stared him in the face, when lo ! something else stared him in the face too. He found something on his land. What was it? It was not California gold nor South Af rica diamonds ; neither was it oil, iron, or coal, it was wna cranDer ries. "Presto, change!" Now mark the result. That land is worth $800 per acre and he is worth half a mil lion dollars. He was a sharp man, with an eye to business; and he saw at once a fortune in those cranber ries, and went to work to realize it by cultivation and systematic la bor, and he has a regularly trained brigade of children and hands to pick and prepare the cranberries for market, for which he realizes as high as $21 per barrel, while the men wno intenuea 10 piay ajoKe on him now mourn over their own unvaluable land and sigh for the fortune their joking lost them." Another Inj unction made 1'er- petual. , It will be remembered that dur ing the past winter the Board of Trustees for the Eighth Township (city cf New-13erne included) levi ed a most oppressive tax, a tax not only burdensome, but,as was claim ed by the tax payers, altogether il legal. Judge Clarke refusing to en join the trustees from collecting this tax, the matter was laid before Judge Russell, who refused to inter fere in the jurisdiction of another Judge. Application for relief was made to Judge Watts the injunc tion granted by him was afterwards dissolved by Judge Clarke, where upon an appeal was made to the Supreme Court by Alexander Mitch ell, Esq., on behalf of himself and other tax payers. At the late term of this Court the case was decided in favor of tho plaintiffs, and the injunction made perpetual. So the trustees will have to whistle for the $1,800 that they sought illegally to collect. A few more experiences of this kind, especially if followed by pecuniary responsibility, will make public oliicials somewhat more care ful how they attempt to exceed their powers.

Printing a book in China is done somewhat as follows: Two pages are written by a person trained to the business, on a sheet of thin pa Der. divided into columns by black lines, and in the space between the two napes are written the title ot LhQ tnfi thAnnmhprnf chanter and page ; when the sheet has been tilU If V " - - w t prined it is folded down through his space, so as to bring the title, etc., partly on each page. The sheet, when ready for printing, is pasted face downward on a smooth block of wood, made usually from the pear or plum tree. As soon as it is dry the paper is rubbed off with great care, leavinsr oeninu an lnverteu impression of the characters. An other workman now cuts away the blank space by means of a sharp crraver and the block with the char acters in high relief passes to the printer, who performs his work by hand. The two points that he has to be most careful about are to ink the characters equally with his brush,and to avoid tearing the paper when taking the impression. From a good w7oodeu block some 15,000 copies may be printed, and when the characters have been sharpened up a little it is possible to obtain 8,000 or 10,000 more impressions. JSEW ADVERTISEMENTS.
