LET 'EM ALONE. We think it jts time to call a halt on the everlasting negro question. 4iThe problem," so called, is already talked and written to death. Every penny-a-liner has his .theofy to ad vance in a settlement of the ques tion ; speeches hy whites and blacks, at different points through the land, are being read and quoted from, and now Congress has been brought face toTace with the knotty question of -'what to do with the ne gro," Senators Butler and Morgan S outhern representatives are pushing a bill asking means to aid in their deportation from the coun try and shipment to Africa. An immigration scheme is actively on foot for transporting them across the continent to the semi-frozen clime of Oklahoma. Meanwhile "Peg" Williams is drifting westward large car loads of them. We actually fear that theory down South will only .too soon change into "what to do without the negro." We have al- .ways thought that the "problem" of the question was magnified unduly the South is not at all hurt at the , want of a speedy "solution" of it It is working out its own solution, jind both races to-day are contem plating with complacency the r gradual but sure adjustment of mis understandings, or fa lse notions hith erto entertained, and thesecurement of equal rights in all particulars es sential to the happiness of each race. Year by year the status betwixt em ployer and employee, especially on 'the farms, is more fixed and satis jfactory. The negro is being educa ed and improved in aljtfee Condi tions of life. It jsji mistake to sup pose that he is-reaehing after politi cal supremacy over the whites, much less is b envious of unenjdyed re IkiiftjtN in the social life except w,hen used by his white associates in politics. He is contented and will continue to be if simply "let alone." He knows the South and its old masters, who feel for his in terests a genuine solicitude. He needs no better friends and they, many of them, will rue the day when they may have unwittingly aided in moving him to other part that are cold and strange and natural y unfriendly, and which in the end will prove to be ihe burial places of nil his best hopes. The South is the land for him, to which he has the best title so let him stay here and. instead of coaxing and enticing him away by rose-celored promises, how ever sincere, let him be and remain where he was raised arfd among his real friends. As a citizen, improv ing each day in an understanding of all essential duties and privileges of citizenship, he will reaeh his highest development here and with his present environments. In the fields of labor, particularly agricult ural, and in the general march of prosperity, he is a factor which the South can illy afford to displace Bv, any other element under the sun. We take no stock in any movement, legislative or otherwise, that has for its object depriving the South of its valuable negro population. That was a lively time they bad at Alton, Ills fOft the 11th.

Jefferson Davis. When the ladies undertake anything they usually" make a success of it, and we hope in this case the responses will be prompt and liberal. Christian VVomans Exchange. ) Cornek South & CampStkekts. -Sew Orleans' La,, Dec 13, 1889. j At a meeting called to day for the purpose of adopting suitable resolu tions on the death of Jefferson Da Vis, the Board of Managers' of thf Christian' Woman's Exchange clr- psi'milieu IO luauguiaio ninn . bomen of the South a movement mi the purpose of aidiug in erecting a monument to his memory. With that end in view a register was immediately opened at the Ex change and will be kept for the con venience of those who desire to send their contributions through this me dium. Mrs. P. N. Strong, the dulv appointed Treasurer, wiH receive subscriptions, deposit the same in Dank ana publish a list weekly. xi was iurther determined to make n appeal to all organized bodies of women to call their organizations to gether at once to co -operate in this great work, by making their associa tion domicils headauarters for. and using their individual efforts in col lecting the subscriptions of all wo men in their respective commu nities. As it is especially desirable that this should be a voluntary nnd united offering from- all Southern women, it is proposed that it be put wunin tne power or each one to con tribute her part by making the sub scription fee one dollar; but as many, who by the ravages of war or the death of their bread winners. have been left so destitute that even this sum would be burdensome, the widow s mfte is earnestly solicited : and from those, favored by fortune, whose hearts prompt them, larger amounts will be welcomed;. This Exchahee will gladly tafce charge of and receipt fof collections of other organizations, turning them over to the proper authorities when they. are ready to receive them. Come forward, Southern women, with one accord and without delay, and pay such atribute to the memo ry of him who was the soul of chiv alry and honor as shall prove you worthy of the esteem in which he ever held you: the bravest, truest women the world has ever known ! Mrs. R. M. Walmslev, President. Mrs. D. A. Gwin, Cor. Secretary. It appears that Mr. Lodge has ahout reached the conclusion the News and Observer long ago ar rived at, that a partizan federal elec tion bill, aimed at the' South, exclu- sivwi', stood no chance or passing the present House. He has therelore abandonedthat purpose and now suggests merelv the requirement that the election of Congressmen shall be held with the Australian ballot sys tern. We are not unwilling to see the Australian ballot come into use all over the Union, but we do not de sire Congress to take any action in the matter whatsoever. ""When"" theCoVti.tution was being framed the patriotic men uittngue work thought it well to invesT. the iederal government with some pow ers hich they did not suppose would be exercised except in emerg encies ; and without doubt there are many powers conferred on Congress that our statesmen have never thought iTOesirable to call in opera tion. Of late more and more of these latest powers have been resorted to in order to remedy evils. Among them we may mention the power to regulate commerce between the States. This right to make regula tions concerning federal elections is plainly given to Congress, but for seventy-five years the power was "never exercised. Then it seemed well to make a regulation opneern ing the election of Senators, and now it is proposed to put the power into opejation in regard to the election of Representatives. Apparently the chief object in con ferring this power on Congress 4&as to permit regulations to be made when the State authorities could not or would not hold elections. No Huch contingency has arisen. There fore the power should not now be exercised. News and Observer. That Little Tickling In your throat, which makes you cough once in a while and keeps you constantly clearing your throat, arises from catarrh is a constitutional disease the ordinary cough medicines all fail to hit the spot. What you need is a constitutional remedy like Hood's Sarsaparilla. Many people who have taken this medicine for scrofula, dyspepsia, loss of appetite, and'other troubles, have been sur prised that itshouldcure this troublesome cough. But to know the actual cause of the cough' is to solve the mystery Many cases oi consum ption can be traced back to the neglect of some such slight affection as this.

Gardner, who was ' serving a ten years' sentence, was a celebrated horse thief and had become a terror to upper North and South Carolina by Irequent depredations. Boils and Carbuncles Cured. For years I have been constantly troubled with humors in the blood, which caused the breaking out of boils and carbuncles all over inv body, that when bruised would make a lasting, ugly sore. I con sulted many eminent physicians and took a great deal of medicine with out any perceptible benefit. Noth ing helped me but Swift's Speci6c (S. S. S.) That medicine cured me !

Swift's Specific Co., Atlanta, Ga. The Boyle Case. The opinion of the Supreme court in the BoTle case is handed down by Judge Merrimon. It is lengthy and able and says there was error in the Superior Court and that Beyle shall have a new trial. The Court holds that there was error in Judge Armfield's charge to the jury, in that he failed to suffi ciently and in a plain and correct manner review the evidence given and explain the law arising thereon. The Judge declined to direct the at tention of the jury to parts of the evidence tending to discredit the evidence of prosecutrix and instruct them as to its nature, bearing and application. - This was regarding the time of day and public location of the house and of the chamber where the alleged rape was committed. The presence of people near the house who could have heard, but did not hear, any outcry of prosecutrix, and also that afterwards she joined her companions in the yard and did not tell them she had been outraged. The Judge should not have left the jury to digest and classify the voluminous and conflicting evi dence, but should have explained its nature and purport to the jury and told them if that part of it, as to the public situation of the place of the alleged assault and failure to hear outcry were true, the law made such facts strong evidence to dis credit that of the prosecutrix. There could scarcely be a case in which the aid of a Judge could be more important. In such cases without the aid of the Court a ver- is nlten the result of alack of intelligent comprehension and ap preciation of the evidence becausei of the want of knowledge on me part of the jury of the law and of the lack of experience in the appli cation of testimony. The Court, in concluding its opinion, does not deem it necessary to advert to numerous other excep tions, most of which are without merit Twin City Daily, Puikerlon warriors are knocking out the teeth of protected miners in Pennsylvania.

Great in terest was taken in the votes upon the World's Fair question in the House to day. The members rep resenting the competing cities were active in consolidating their forces and in keeping their men in line. Dozens of members kept the tally nnd every vote was closely scanned. The most energetic of the Chicago men were Messrs. Cannon, Mason, Lawler, and Springer. The Missouri troops were marshalled by Messrs. HatchDockery, Frank, and Bland, wtiile New York interests were at tended to by Messrs. Flower, Far quhar, and Cummings. The result of the contest is that a special com mittee of nine members will be ap pointed without receiving any in structions. It may choose a site if it sees fit, but it is more probable that the determination of that ques tion will be related to tHe House. The Egypt Coal Company on last Saturday had a fine young mule put down in the shaft and it look the efforts of eight men to perform this task. This mule will likely stay in this dark shaft as long as it lives and that may he a long time. There was one which staid in the same shaft during the war, it was taken out when operations ca6ed and it died about three years ago. It went blind soon after it came out, and it is related that it amused it self until it dietTby lucking. San ford Express.
