K.r:r?v".7 ',:'. ; "" , Harper's Weekly before he war and after the war was a great enemy to the south. It slandered our people, and with its cartoons sought to prostrate and afflict this part of the land. We do not see It now, but Jearn thatjt Is keeping up its old hatreds, and is abus ing and insulting the south in so far as it is capable. It is one of the Impla cable. It feeds upon its own poison ous nature. Its expectorations are filled with the bacteria of satan. The lat est occasion of its "bitter criticism and purblind hostility, Was a letter by Mr. W. L. Wilson, of West Virginia, late of Cleveland's cabinet, and lately elected president of Washington and Lee uni versity, at Lexington, Va. Mr. Wilson said that he had accepted th place tendered him because he desired to make this excellent institution "a great centre of sound learning and sound citizenship, a power to reproduce in the south some of that high thinking .which made her leadership in past gen erations so conservative and yet na tional. I am sure the seed has not run out. But it needs strong and whole some culture." Considering that the great Robert E. Lee had been president and 'his son had succeeded him, and that' the university had 'been well manned' for the last thirty years Mr. Wilson is" very modest (?) and his as nitinn vaultlne. -But we are not , Concerned with this great man, as some hold him, but with spiteful and 'bitter Harper's Weekly. Hear this deliberate slanderer:- '"Surely there was never a people more greatly in need of education, and of such education, in mind and morals, as Mr. Wilson can impart and inspire. The south is wrong on nearly every economic and social question. It has not fi man of distinguished ability in public life. It is under the rule of hair-brained adventurers, who are ready to take up with tany cause that seems to serve their ambition of the moment. It has become the harbor and refuge of the wildest economic and political heresies. Not only is the pres ent intellectual conditiop of the south demoralizing the immediate section, but its' evil influence extends through out the country, and very seriously af fects the character of the federal gov ernment. There is no cure for the evil except through education, and in the spread of enlightenment every centre of civilization in the union is deeply interested." i TKat is cool in its effrontery. See 'how imperious the knowledge of this pictorial weekly. HoW sweeping Its censure, -how infallible its judgment! 1 1 repeats the wild, false slanders and deliberate, lies of the campaign, that garnished the dailies and weeklies in the north. The sorrow of the thing is, not that an old slanderer belches forth its old lies and. diatribes and cock-sure ignorances, but that all through the south there are men living off the slandered people, and among them, who will relish the insults and feel glad that the scoundrels who cruelly malign and stab are willing to keep up their old fusillade. The depth, the vitriolic fierceness, the far reaching effort to wound and disparage in that mean at tack are made more intense by the fact that it is aimed not 'at -the stolid ignorance or the unlettered elements, but at the most intelligent, the best ed ucated, the most honorable men. When newspaper or magazine or any other r publication can fall so far Jbelow de cency and truth as to declare that the south "'has not a man of distinguished ability in public life," it is not only past reform: but should 'be past pat ronage. In the senate today there is no man the equal iof 'Morgan. What men in. the senate are the superiors of Vest, Jones,; Gorman, Walthall Rate, Mills and Daniel? As to the thread-hare, clap-trap in econo- about the south's heresies mic questions it is enough to say that the best evidence pf its wisdom, its devotion to " true political science, its fidelity to the great fundamentals of a democratic form its faithful adher- genuine republican of government, and ence to the principles of the old demo cratic, expounders ajnd leaders, i3 that it has no regard for the Wall street selfish philosophers and economists that it has never accepted the dogmas in church and state of New England, and that today iti in freer from mobs, from cant, from humbug, from social disturbances, from a war of classes, from outrages and ijvrongs, among the whites, from gross scandals in churches and social life, in legislation and gen eral political abuses than the north, with all of itsinsuperable boastfulness V. and arrogance and pretension. The & i . Richmond State says in some proper remarks upon this attack upon the f" . south: "Of all the sections of the union the south is more nearly influenced and controlled by American born citizens than any other. I Of all the sections (of this country the south can show more statesmen than any others whose names' will live as long, as her government shall exist. Our institutions of learning, our lit erature, our pulpits, are equal to those of any part of the country. Oucrepresentatives and senators in congress today number among them some of the finest orators, ablest debat ers and best lawyers in the country. The .south proved, during the panic through which we are still passing that our business institutions of every class were among the best and safest in the country. We have had fewer failures and have paid our debts better than -any other section of the entirs coun- After all, is the Harper attack, vi cious and devilish as it is, more con temptible and reprehensible than Wil son's covert attack upon the south?

Mrs. Sally Duty Hays of Oxford, Is a gifted, brilliant woman We have known tout few of her sex in a long life who impressed us as her equal in intellectuality. She has not had time to devote herself to letters, being fully employed In domestic duties and the responsibilities of a large household. .Whenever she has taken time to write It has 1een because she had something to say and knew Just "how to say It. Many years ago she had a little leisure and delighted hundreds with her spark ling comment and "bright humor. The other day we aw a brief contribution from her in the Greensboro Christian Advocate. Tt amused us, for it was full of good sense and It was on "The New 'Woman." It should be read as a whole to understand her motive and scope of treatment. 'She believes in woman, Tut has no fancy for such "ob jectionable terms-as "New Woman" and "New South." Even that shows her sanity and womanly intelligence. Woman, the genuine sort, is, she holds. "the same erlorv of the man' an angel of mercy intent on her new mis sion." (She may have crude plans un der "new evlra'menis," but she is still useful and charming. And now let lis give a paragraph or two In full: "Born under different conditions; disciplined to the modern training- schools methods; educated under kin dergarten suggestions, woman's meet ings, mother's congresses and a grow ing list of humane and religious soeie tfes: is she not expected to be up and doing?' But she Is no less womanly- no less -lovely. Man's home no less an earthly Paradise because his Wife plans for the betterment of her fellow crea tures." ' Of course. I am not speaking of the 'cigarette girl,' the 'bloomered wheel woman' nor the "Colorado convention creature." This latter contingent who wildly shrieks her political platform who clamors for her rights and on tip toe, with ruddy cheeks says,, she will stand by them or die! die! die! , She, who provoked with her sharp tongue, insult and vituperation from the other sex and, as is reported by a recent pa per, called in vain for the gentlemen' to avenge her wrongs, (Which gentle men naturally enough supposed she 1-1 -1. " . . i .-. 1 T was aoie w xane care ox jiersen. x i do not call her into the discussion. She 1 is of her sex a thing apart. A 'mon strosity' that has always existed true not always under bloomers, nor always found in congress assembled;' but trailing her slimy way along the coars er walks of life. Talking loud, dress ing ditto and flaunting her unwomanly self outside the pale of refined and honest circles. . I pray heaven that there may be such a revulsion in public sentiment that this monstrous thing may never obtain a foothold on southern soil. But let us "be unprejudiced! Let us not call a halt among our philanthropic women who are accomplishing such a vast amount of good." We like that. Like all "old fogies" the men of the old school of that "old order, thatv changeth," as .Tennyson writes in his matchless, immortal "Idylls of the King" we nave the old fashioned way of admiration, of cour tesy, of undimmed .respect for good women the world around. We would stand uncovered in their presence, and offer the loyalty and admiration and chivalrlc devotion that characterized the venerated fathers gone before. Men of the old school do not affect admira tion or worship for "a womail impudent and mannish grown." They pay court to those who have 'been better pictured by Shakespeare in his splendid gallery of women than by all other poets com bined the women whose "modesty makes 'them seem divine" the women all gentleness and kindness" who "win the love" of men women "wise, fair and true" women whose "voice is ever soft, gentle and low" women "constant,"and "pure," for "the hand that hath made you fair, -hath made you good" these are the Women wno draw loyalty from the soul of man, excite him to noble deeds and pure liv ing, and command all the adoration and affection of his nature. But we are more intent upon letting Mrs. Hays have a hearing than to write ourselves. She is so wise, so full of experience in life, so close an observer of her sex, that she may be well list ened to while man is silent. Let us give another glimpse of the "women," she admires and lauds. She writes: "We should justly regard this as an age of common sense, an age which de velops what is best in woman f she is in full rapport with her best impulses; her best and highest endeavors. God guide and keep her! No longer the butterfly of idle society, no longer the languish ing beauty Of languishing circles, she is wide-awake to her full duty. Going from house to house, from charity to charity looking systematically after the infirm, the aged, the helpless, giv ing of her time, her money, her pray ers; dropping consolation on the poor bleeding heart, or lifting the outcast sister into a life of hope and honor. The modern woman's tastes are di verted into many channels, but are al ways of an elevating nature always for the betterment of humanity, the uplifting of the world." iShe sees to women a wider (field open ing. She cheers them on in the blessed work before them. She says: "Oh! my fellow women, live for a purpose, avail yourselves of the call of humanity, go on in the' noble work you have assumed! vEvery intelligent man and.woman will hail the change that gives you much breadth of opportunity both in employment and in recreation." If you knew her as we do you would know how overflowing with intelli gence and healthy common sense she is, and how keen of vision and. bright with scintillating wit she is. She turns her glass upon the "lord of creation" towards the close of her too brief paper. She quietly "digs" him a side thrust while really holding him as worthy of consideration. Hear her once more: "Our men no longer fill one end of the meal sack with corn and the other with rock. They have found a better way. Nor do they build with the same architectural design. Nor yet run the same style vehicle, nor chew the same tobacco, nor drink the same 'rock and rye.' Yet I think none of us worry over the change. The dear honored ones? If they like it we are content. They are none the more the 'new man.' In fact, we rath er cling to the 'old man' notwithstand ing we so righteously talk of 'putting him off. 'Make a dot right here. You never see him the object of cheap wit and flippant jest in the modern newspapers. Call a halt? No indeed! With our improved facilities .our day's work is done in less than half the time and the other-half spent in exhilarating, sport. Our nights are a long delicious slumber, and our wakening on the morrow a foretaste of Immortal Youth. We may look with pleasure and pride on the finely developing rising generation." And this is the kind the only kind of woman that one of the brightest and truest and wisest of her sex in our state holds up as worthy every way of public countenance, of man's sympa thy, aid and adoration. We thought this plea for woman from an old friend too good to be overlooked. It is on such healthful, true lines of pro gress, that it seemed to us we could not better fill the space than by giving our women readers the privilege of reading the above. HOME FOIiKS. The railroads seem to be in "bad luck." Several accidents -have lately happened Either the watches need rtg-ulatinsr or something else Is wrong. Some thitry-odd years &gd we knew an accident to occur twice within a hun dred or two yards of each other. One was from downright bull-headedness, and the other, we think, from careless ness. - If that convict for manslaughter up in Buncombe had only behaved himself in his prison he would have been turned loose upon" society, we suppose, al though the court had said he was guil. ty. Oh, that one man absurdity and tyranny! This writer , is very anxious to pro cure the number of the "South Atlan, tic Monthly," published nearly twenty years since in this city, and edited by Mrs, Cicero W. Harris-, containing an article entitled "A Plea for Reading Poetry." His name accompanies the article. A liberal price will be paid for the copy and he will be much obliged to any one who has it. The delay in appointing a district judge caused two courts to be omitted and at a cost of money and much in convenience to defendants and wit nesses. This is the way radicalism ber haves itsejf. A last, after unnecessary delay, it is telegraphed that Tom Pur nell, of Raleigh, gets the pieceof pie. Tom "jined the radikils" a long time ago, but he. has had to wait for decades to get up to the pie counter. The grub will be the sweeter after the protracted diappointment and the increasing hun ger. As it turns out that Tom did not draw those "awful" insane asylum bills, Which are the wonder and amuse ment of the legal folks, he may pass muster. While not a jurist, we sup pose, of the ability and learning of the late Judge Seymour, he is a good averr age lawyer', if we are not mistaken. By the way, those "Insane asylum bills" were the joint product of Loge Harris and Charles Cooke, aided, abet ted and confirmed by Governor Rus sell. No one would expect Loge and Charles "to draw" anything but a sal ary well, but the governor ought to have been able to "fix up" a bill or two so that they would "hold water" under analysis tv,om v,c "Judge" Henry discounted. them before the ' test was applied. It really looks as if this was the day of very small things, and that the "gen tlemen from" Lilliput had arrived. STATE PRESS.

Monroe .Enquirer. . . The statement -made in the local columns of The Sentinel, some days ago, that faim Branon, colored, one of vvins ton's well known fighting characters,,was dead, and that Sim was a democrat who was never afraid to show his colors, has been taken as a pretext by some sneak, wno is xacKing the manhood to sign his name or show his face, to make cowardly and assassin-iiKe thrusts at this paper. through the columns of this week's issue of The Union Republican. Winston Sentinel. - I In the United States the chief end of man is to gst an office, and he naturally thinks that the chief business of the government is to furnish a plenty of them. An instance of the efforts to furnish them! is found m the bill of Senator Hans braugh, of North Dakota, mentioned in the last issue of this paper, "authorizing the appointment of a commission to in troduce and popularize the bread foods of the United States among- the people of the Orient." Each commissioner is to get $5,000 a year, the clerk to the body $3,000, and $50,000 is to be appropriated for ex penses. The object of it is to carry the gospel of wheat bread and corn bread to the heathen of the east; to convince the heathen how good they are, in order that the United States may- selr them flour and meal. This is one of the finest schemes ever heard of. Statesville Land mark. . We are not in accord with this policy of the governor, but candor compels . us to say that if the recommendations- that he is constantly giving out to the press are true from some of our superior court judges and solicitors that he admits in fluenced him in granting these pardons reveals a state of affairs unthought of before. In the case of nearly every con vict who has received executive clemency the governor states that the pardon had been recommended by the trial judge and the solicitor and then goes on to say that these gentlemen think the culprit has re ceived sufficient punishment or that the evidence was not at all conclusive on which his conviction was based. If the above facts are true then the truth is re vealed that some of our judges have been imposing punishment and sending prison ers to the penitentiary or the public roads for a longer term than their offenses de served. Instead of tempering justice with mercy punishments have been imposed upon the unfortunate criminal without due consideration of his temptation or environments that in the calmer moments of reflection of judges pronounce too severe and petition the governor to reme dy an injustice that they have imposed. Laying all other, considerations aside is not this a strange state of affairs? Does it not mark a new era in the history of the administration of justice and present another side to the question, why are so many convicts in the penitentiary being pardoned? Washington Messenger.
