Tlio Washington Post, under
tlie head "Wlmt Bhall Wo Do
With tiio Nepror thus discourses
in its usual level headed stylo:
"Secretary lloot asks: 'What
Kliall wo do with the netrro?' We
answer let him alone!"
"The noero is free. Ho has the

He receives an education, such

tM'iiso of tho whito taxpayer, and,
in tho South, at least, ho can al
ways ohtain emnlovment. It lies
with him to work out his own
destiny, to make of himself a
useful citizen, and to rear his
futnily in righteousness and de
cency. Why need our statesmen
concern themselves over the
feverisli complaints of a handful
of impudent agitators demanding
that to which they are not en
titled and which white men of
similar condition and equipment
would not dream of asking for 7
There are thousands of well to-do
colored men in tho South who
could inform these anxious gen
tlemen that the nejrro is not
heljs'd but injured by this ever
lasting outcry. There arc thous
ands worth anywhere from 10,-
(XXJ to f 1,(K0,(KX), who pet all tho
'recognition they want without
clamoring for it, and they can
testify in their own experience
that 'recognition' conies always
to him who hits deserved it This
pestiferous vociferation over the
negro and his Hocalled rights
merely inflames the vanity of the
the ignorant and robs him of what
little self-respect he has."
Following this the Post prints
a letter from a colored mechanic
in Philadelphia complaining of
his inability to secure work be
cause ol Ins color, uiougn ins
ability is unquestioned, and then
adds :
'This man is a victim of the
wicked and mischievous agitation
to which we refer. Evidently
far superior to the average of his
race, he was nevertheless credu
lous enough to believe that great
things awaited him at the rsortli.
He abandoned a home in which
he had been contented and pros
perous, and transferred himself
to Philadelphia with the result
we have already seen. Of course
he will return to South Carolina,
where he has friends among the
whites and is assured of remuner
ative employment at all times.
There are other victims, how
ever, who will not so easily es
cape the consequences of their
own credulity, for only a few
days ago the New York Tribune
called attention to the number of
southern negroes who had i mi
grated to the metrojolis, expect
ing no doubt to dine with tlie
mayor and be elected to office
within a week, but who had
landed in the almshouses and who
were then begging for transpor
tation back home. The truth is
that this eternal nonsense about
the negro and his rights and
wrongs; this mischievous cackle
over him and his future, is in
finitely harmful to him, and
fraught with calamity to both
races.
"Let him alone ! Stop this
idiotic uproar. The negro is all
right, and for every impudent
pretender and complainant filling
the air with clamor for recog
nition there are ten thousand
honest, industrious, self-respect

building up their own fortunes.

THE LIQUOR DEVIL.
The late Cithop i'eck, of the Metli
diet Epii-copal Chnrch, wrote the
following vivid accrotjt of what ca
lamity and rain intemperance brings
upon a man, a family, a nation :
Intemperance cuts don youtb
in its vigor, manhood in its strength,
snd age in its weakness. It breaks
tbe father's heart, bereaves tbe dot
iDg mother, extinguishes natural af
fection, erases conjugal bve, blot
out filial attachment, blights parent
al hope, and briDgsdown mourning
age in sorrow to the grave. It pro
duces weakness, not strength; sick
ness, hot health ; dettb, not life.
It makes wives widdows, children
orphans, fathers fiende, and all of
them paupers and beggars. It feeds
rheumatism, nurses gout, welcomes
epidemics, invites cbolera, imparts
pestilence, and tmbrsces coneurop
tion. It covers the land with idle
ness, poverty, disease, and crime. It
(ills your jails, supplies your alms
houses, and demands your asylums.
It engenders controversies, fosters
quarrels, and cherishes riots. It
bile your penitentiaries and furnish
es victims for your scnffolds. It is
the life blood of tbe gambler, tbe
element of tbe burglar, the prop of
tbe highwayman, and tbe support
of tbe midnight incendiary. It coun
tenances tbe liar, respects tbe thief,
and esteems tbe blasphemer. It via
lute obligations, reverences fraud,
and honors infamy. It befamts
benevolence, hates love, scorns vir
tue, and slanders innocence. It in
cites tbe father to butcher his help
less otiripringB, helps tbe husband to
massacre his wite, and aids the child
to grind tbe paricidal axe. It
burns op man and consumes woman.
It suborns witnesses, nurses perjury,
defiles the jury box, and stains tbe
judicial ermine. It bribes votes,
disqualifies voters, corrcpts elec
tions, pollutes our institutions, and
endangers our government. It de
grades tbe citizen, debases the legis
lature, dishonors the statesman, and
disarms the patriot. It brings shame
not honor ; terror, not safety ; des
pair, not hope ; misery, not happi
ness : and with tbe malevolence of
a bend, it calmnly surveys its iright
tal desolation, and, nosatiehed with
havoc, it poisons felicity, kills peace,
ruins morals, blighu confidence,
slays reputation, and wipes oat na
tional honor ; tben curses the world,
and laughs at its ruin. It does all
that and more, it murders the soul.
It is tbe sum of all vilUinits. and
father of all crimes, tbe mother of
all abominations, tbe devil's btt
friend, and God's worst enemy.

Pneumonia Contagious.
Though the fact that pneumonia
is contagious has long b;en recog
nizsd by physicians, it ha not beeo
generally known among the people,
nd this, no doubt, accounts in large
part for the prevalence of the dread
disease.
A bulletin recently issued by the
Chicago board of health, for in
stance, sayt that in the last two
years tbe deaths from pneumonia
in that city have been one eighth ot
all, and 40 per cent more than all
other contagious and infectious dis
eases combined. Tbe writer of tbe
article further asserts that tbe great
spread of ti e disease is due mainly
to the carelessntss ot patients and
their friends who ignore the conta
giousness of pneumonia, as well as
to professional negligence.
Commenting on this, a writer in
American Medicine declare that
pneumonia is tar more contagious
even than tuberculosis, and he pro
duces figures to show that the mor
tality from pneumonia is in some
cities far greater than the mortality
from consumption.
It would be well, especially at
such times as this when tbe weatber
is peculiarly favorable to tbe disease,
to bear these facts in mind. More
attention paid to tbe fact that pneu
monia is a highly contagious dis
ease will go a long way toward les
sening its ravages. Asheville Cit

In the Spring there will be built
a $250,000 addition to the Chad-

has been in operation only a year
and has had wonderful success. It
makes only hue sheetings and in tbe
addition to the mill fine .roods, also,
will be manufactured. The Chtd
wick mill was built at a cost of 300,-
000. Tbe improvements will make
it more than a balf million dollar
plant and one of tbe best in the
country. Charlotte Observer.
Senator Hinna's pension bill i'or

1,000 LIVES ARE LOST.
Death and Devastation Sweep Over
tbe Islands of tbe Pacific, and
Terrible Consequences
Ensue.
N)wi of a fearful lost of life in a
disastrous storm which twept over
tbe 6 nth Sea Islands last mon'h,
rcachfd San Francisci Sunday a
week ago by the ttoamfr Mariposa,
direct Irom Tahita. The lost of lite
is (stiinatod at 1,000 persons. Oo
Jannsry 13 last, a huge tidal wave,
accompanied by a terrific hurricane,
attacked the Society Islands and the
I'uamoto group with fearful force
causing death and devtttation never
before equaled in a land of great
stormt. The storm raged several
days. From the newt received up
to the time of tbe tailing of the
tteamer, it It estimated that 1,000
of tbe islanders lost their lives. It
is feared that later advices will in
create this number Tbe first newt
of the disaster reached Papeete,
Tahiti, January 20, by the schooner
Eimeo. The captain of the schooner
placed the fatalitiea at 500. The
ttetmer Excelsior arrived at Papeete
the following day with 400 destitute
furvivors. Tho captaio of the Ex A
celsior estimated tbe total loss ot lite
to be 800. These figures comprised
only the deaths on the three islands
of Hao, Uikuera and Makokaa,
whose ordinary population is 1,800.
On Uikuera Island, where 1,000
inhabitants were engaged in pearl
diving, nearly one-half were drown
ed. On an adjacent island, 1,000
more were washed out to sea.
Makokan and Hao are depopulated.
Conservative estimates at Tahita
Elace the number of isltnds visited
r tbe tidal wave and hurricane at
80. All of them are nndur tbe con
trol of the French governor at
Tabita. Tbe surviving inhabitants
are left destitute of food, shelter
and clothing, all having been swept
away by tbe storm.
The rrencb government on re
ceipt of newt of tbe disaster, took
prompt met s ares to relieve tbe dis
tressed districts and di patched two
warships with tresh wuter and pro
visions. At the supply of fresh
water and provisions was totdlly
exhausted by the storm, it is feared
that many lives will be lost before
the relief ships c-in arrive. As far
as is kn jwn eiht white people were
among the drowned. Included in
these were Alexander Urander, N.
P. Plunkett, of Oakland ; T. V.
Donnelly, formerly t fireman on the
steamship Austialia, and the local
agent of C. Coppenrath, a merchant
of Papeete. Added to this number
was an nnknown woman who com
mitted suicide from fright.
At the islands were barely 20 feet
above sea level and were not sur
rounded by coral reefs, it was
ntccssary for all inhabitants to take
to the cocoanut treet when the tidal
wave began to over the land.
These treet grow to an immense
height, many reaching an ahitcde of
100 feet. All of tbe lower treet
were covered by the raging seat
which twept with pitiless force
about and over them. The ntivet
in tbe taller treet were safe until the
cocoaunt roots gave wav and tben
tbey, too, were twept out into the
sea. l be 4uu survivors Drongni Dy
tbe Excelsior to Papeete gained the
ship's side by swimming three and
four miles from tbe tops of the
cocoanut trees. The Eiemo, though
badly damaged by the storm, also
brought off as many persins at
could swim to her tide, the, like the
Excelsior, being unable to run close
to tbe shores because of the violence
of the ocean swell, which continued
to run abnormally high for a week
after the tidal disturbances. An
other schooner, tbe Gauloia, from
tbe Marqueean Islands, 600 miles
awty, encountered tbe hurricane
while on the way to tbe latter place
and only tbe timely action of tbe
captain in having the cargo, con
sisting of 30 head of cattle, 35 pigt
and 30 ton of cotton, jettisoned,
saved tbe little cralt from deetruc
tion. Even with th t precaution,
tbe life of one mao wat lost by wave
weeping tbe decks.
Heavy Loss by Fire.
The Newton Eatemrise says tbe
dwelling and barn of Mr. Garland
Arndt. on the Catawba river, in
Cline's township, Catawba county,
were burned Wednesday night with
their contents. Sir. Arndl was
away from borne. The fire started
in the second story of tbe dwelling
and when the family awoke they
bad barely time to escape without
saving anything. With tbe brn
wat destroyed a reaper, wagont and
farming tools. Tbe lost it estimated
at f 1,500 with (400 insurance.
