Ye (juntod in yesterday's issue ii jmi tion of a letter from Ashcvillc to a Mas sachusetts journal, evidently written h a visitor whose ranje ul" view was ver limited, and his sojourn too lnicl to ad mit of its enlargement. The information which was contained in the extract vi published was specially obtained and pet feetly reliable; what we now refer to i; evidently the result of original erroneoi impressions, not subsequently effaced b intelligent observation of the questioi. treated of. The writer opens his lettei with the following paragraph: "There is a marked d i iVerence of opinio t between leadint: democrats on bow tin nero shall be treated, lioverip'r ilill.o New Yoi'K, in his Atlanta speech, sail1 that the whites should take t he neyro ii hand and lift him up. Henry VatLcrst said that the blacks didn't know enon.t:! to rule and probably never would know enough. Therefore the blacks nnit Ik forever kept out of idlice. Tlicse arc tlu Northern and Sotitlicru views ol ' t he ease t hie is liberal. The oi lier is narrow an vengeful. In this nencratiou narrowness of thought is havini; ils day. And it day in rciardini; the race qtiestiou is not far distant." In contrasting the two views presented the one. the Northern, is certainly liberal but it is visionary and inadmissible if it be proposeil to be carried out to t he ex tent of that free and equal iustallatioiiot office dreamed of by the writer of thi letter. The other, the Southern view, may be narrow ; il certainly is not veuyi ful. It' it be narroy , it is because tlu treed nejjro has l'ulh esta' lishcdliis unlit ness for the duties and responsibilities o: otlice in its most iuqiortant relation. Southern experience pves ample am eostlv illustration ol that incapacity, and even though it lie a narrow view, tlu South has no purpose to Mibiccl itself t any farther experiment. It will trust th management of its affairs to the raei which, apart from fundamental ethno logical differences, has had the training of centuries to tit it (in its work, ratiici than to that which, w ith itsoiily twenty five years' experience in freedom, lias on Is succeeded in making ducks and tirakeso: every serious matter lu which it has es saved to put its haiiils. It is not venye ful; for there is no vengeance to be i ited upon the colored race; rather kimlU and grateful leelin, towards the ol.lct and passiny-away generation at least The Southern people know the nero llntrouyhly; know hisi;oodqualitics,ain: also know his deficiencies, not the least of which, if it were needed for him to hi, office, which necessity is not upon them, his incapacity to till them up to the jus; standard of public requirement. Hut why vengeful ? hecausc, if that ' element enters into exclusion trom odice. the Northern (States have shown more vengeful feeling than the Southern. We haveneverhea.il that in the Northern States the ncro was ever rewarded with State or county honors; no magistrate ships, no sheriffalties, no clerkships, no solieitorships, no judgeships, no legisla tive or congressional rewards, nothing whatever to reward the colored voter toi his preponderance, as the undeniable bal ance of power, in pvitnj party victoty to the party to which the writer of this let ter so unmistakably belongs. The na tional administration, for party pur poses, has made some selection for ollici from anion; the lew really competent ne groes in the country. Hut that was an abstract consideration. We have seen that the moment President Harrison came in contact with the negroes in the close relation of domestic service, he jjot rid of them at once i( jtnt';uii and purged himself of the foul association. A Southern Tresident would have done no such thm. His estimate of the nero would have been the true one; he would have taken him as a ood, true, docile, affectionate friend ; but he would never have made an officeholder of him. Our correspondent would do well to learn something more of the affairs of the South than he can possibly learn within the seclusion of a sanitarium; and this observation will teach him, as it has taught other intelligent Northern gentle man, that the policy of the South to wards the negro is neither narrow nor vengeful, but wise and generous. MISCONIKI'TION OF j(l KMI.. ISTIC UCTV, The Durham fdole, a handsomely printed and enterprising daily, in its issue of the lath, announced its suspen sion. The cause which led to this result "was a lack of substantial patronage;" and the editor adds, "the existence of :he paper might have been prolonged by lowering its standard." In this we are sure the editor docs his patrons wrong. No class of readers is Mattered by a concession to their assured deficiencies, none of thein complimented by the effort to reduce a paper to the level of their supposed tastes or compre hensions. It is gross ignorance of human nature when an editor presumes to look down from his lolty perch and condes cends to come down into the lower arena he imagines to exist, and consent to play the buffoon or the ignoramus or the charlatan that he may tickle the self love of the-herd with whom be chooses for the time to make himself the equal. That is the mistake editors sometimes make. They assume the people to be fools to be treated according to their folly. If such editors regard the masses u their inferiors, they would do well to measure tlie force anil wisdom of the proverb, "truth lies at the bottom of a well;" and in the profundity of the depths to which such editors have as signed the great masses of his l eaders he will find as much of sound wisdom and judicious rcllcction as he had experienced in the elevated atmosphere from which, for the time being, he had so graciously lowered himself. The aspiration of all people is to rise higher in the scale ot lile and intelligence; they gladly welcome all helps to that end, ami they rcnl as in sult all implication of inferiority. The mind of the most thoughtless or un learned reader is as accessible to higher truths and pure sentiment as that of the most cultivated. They welcome them as cordially ami as appreciatively. If they are in anv way iIi-Ik ieul, they are keenly conscious ot it. They fully understand what is the proper standard ot' a newspaper. If that standard is a lofty otic, they rally to il rather than turn away from it. They teecpt it as a guitlc, and expect that it lie hoi ne loftily. The very suggestion if the ('.lobe that its existence might nave been prolonged by lowering its standard proves the depth ol the iniscon ,'eption of the cililor. Apart Iroin the lair-mess management of the paper, nl .vliieh we know nothing, we would ven- uie the opinion that tnc laiuire 01 mi - i.terprise was due largely to the raising il'a false standard that ol sensational - s,n. which is foreign to tin- tastes and laliiis of a quiet conservative people. I'Ikv I to their paper for truth, toi nl, n illation, lor advice, not sensation. Hid while si, lid steady going journals nay bear unfa vorable couir.tol with the lash and briiiiaucy of more vivacious ivals, they will remain to guide with their more steady light, w hile the pyro technic displays of the sensational school juickly sputters out ils llashy gloiics. iiwl dies in ignominious the kucss. Hut the editoi of the t'dolic m.inlully would not accept the allei native of low riiiL; hi- standard, and went down with .lis llag living.

We give the Massachusetts young wo man the benelit of the publicity in this section she might not have asked for. She says : The court is in session here at Live Oak and several colored men arc on trial lor murder. Some of them have killed others in self-defense and should be ae ipiitieil. but the whites hate them so bit teily that they stand readv to Ivnch them unless thry are sentenced to be hanged. The jail was guarded all last night, and although nothing serious oc curred there was much excitement. The herilf is one who is inclined to have just ice done, and a gang of men went to his house and ealicd lor him. lie hid himseli or they would probably have taken his life. There happened to be two colored ministers on the street, and they made ctreal sport ot them, causing one to kneel dow n and pray ami the other to dance. Within the past year nineteen murders have been committed in this district alone, and it stems as if the present ex citement will have some serious ending. In the county adoiiiiit? tins, I under itand that titty 1'niteil Slates marshals have been sen! down to keep the peni-c. Tlie law is a dead letter here so far as the colored man is concerned. 1 expect that the wiutes are intimidating and abusing the blacks with a view to keeping them back at the coming elections.
