WILMINGTON. N. C, DECEMBER 2 T.
We surrender a larg&.amount of space, to-day
in printing the remarks of the Ionl Henry' J
Raymond, of New York,' in replytothe stric
tures of Sumner and Stevens on the president's
late message to congress J And we are convinced
that we could in no more satisfactory way to bur
readers appropriate this space, ' Mr. Raymond js
the leader in congress of the conservative repub
licafffaction--that is, the faction -1 of the repub
lican pafty which sustains the "policy of the pre-
sent, administration of the general government
He. is the representative in congress of that class
of politicians who derive' their political ideas
from such eminent and patriotic sources as the
Albany Evening Journal, the National Intelligencer
and the New Yovjc Times. It is the old silver grey
wing of the ancient whig party, conspicuously
represented in the government by the distin
guished premier, Hon. William H. Seward, and
outside by Thurlow Weed. It is a party that has
ever been noted for ability in the maintenance of
dignified principles, and the only semblance of a
party that has ever manifested a worthiness to
cope with the old democratic porty.
"The -utterances of a leader of such an influen
tial political organization are more than interest-
ine i-they are. important.; tney become, in a
great measure, the foreshadowings of the policy
of , the . government, so long as the government
shall continue to be influenced and guided as it
is now influenced and guided. .
j- But beyond this important character of this
ijpeech,or ihese. remarks. They will he eagerly
perused in; the south because of , the antagonism
ihey develop between the party of the adminis
tration and the radicals. Messrs. Sumner, Ste
yens, Wilson, Chandler and others of that stripe,
lare very noisy in congress, but as they possess
but little of the brains that enter into the compo
sition of the bodies to Which they belong, they
jean be counted as having little influence. Influ
i ence usually goes with intelligence. Neither in
l fluence no, intelligence usually abide long with
! fanatism or radicalism. Mr. Raymond develops
I the rupture in the republican ranks, and of course
j the intelligence and influence of the party will
take the conservative side; and thus the radicals
j will be very apt to sink away into the insignifi
,' cance they inhabited a few years ago.
j We shall'' probably have more to say on this
j subject in another issue.
I A CONFLICT OF ADTHOBIT1ES.
i At the last term of the New Hanover county
; court' two negros, convicted of larceny, were
sentenced to be sold into servitude for a term of
five years, in accordance with the provisions of
an old statute of this state, in force long before
the war. We learn that the case has been
brought to the knowledge of the fieedmen's
bureau, and that Major Wickersham, agent of the
bureau in this district, acting under instructions,
has directed the chairman of the county court to
revoke the sentence already passed in the case.
The principle upon which the interference is
based is' that no laws which recognize a difference
in the races shall be enforced. It is claimed by
the authorities that, as the statute upon which
this action is based does not include white peo
ple, but is solely applicable to free negros, there
fore it must not be enforced.
The Pbospekitt of thb South. It is report
ed that General Grant remarked during his re
cent visit to Raleigh, ihatl n ten years the south
would be richer than before the war. The pros
perous appearance and advertising columns of
the southern journals, says an exchange, indicate
that thet commerce of the southern cities is rap
idly increasing, and that their business prospects
are decidedly encouraging. Seven daily papers
are now published in Richmond (four more than
it could boast before; the war), and they !! ap
pear to be, well sustained. Similar signs of news
' paper vitality are observable in the other lead'
ing southenfeities, wid especially in New Orleans,
the great southrrn commercial emporium. A re
cent number of one of its journals the True
'Delta states that the receipts at the -custom
house for duties, in gold, in November, 1855,
were 8510.973 70. against 8248,066 93 in the
corresponding month of 1860, before the war
and it proves th t this is not owing merely to an
increase of duties, but to a large increase of bu
siness. The amount of assessments of internal
revenue in that city in October and November,
1865, were $952,731 05, against $148,936 during
the corresponding months of 1864 ; and the col
lections of internal revenue for the year ending
June 30, 1865, were $1,546,999 30. These signi
flcant statements clearly indicate that already the
south is reaping many solid advantages from the
. establishment of peace. . ' .. .
Anniveesaet of the Battl of New Or
leans. The ancient and honorable Tammany
- society, of New York, are s making extensive ar
rangements for the semi-centennial celebration
' of the anniversary of the, battle jot New Orleans.
. The committee, in' their cards of mvitataon, say
t that " it is with:- unfeigned joy they hail the ad
vent of a season; when they can recur to an event
which no achievinents . in our subsequent history

complete, with most excellent spring and well
of water. ' ; .
The Dwelling is surrounded by a beautiful 10
acre grove of oaks, hicory and elm trees, a well
improved garden, 20 acres devoted to apple and
peach orchards and grape vines in fine bearing
condition, and acres are devoted to Mulberry
trees, contiuning 8 varieties, which are in full bear
ing from May until August, and is invaluable for
hog and poultry raising; fire wood and timber are
auunaani ana convenient.
The lands are as good as any in the country ;
the river bottoms rich, the uplands fair, and both
susceptible of high improvement. Of the crops
grown, corn, cow peas, potatoes, cotton, wheat,
oats and rye are the principal all ol which do
well.
With a trifling expanse a head of water thirty to
forty feet could be had for milling or manufactur
ing purposes the stream never fails. The health
of the place is unsurpassed. In a residence of
three years, with a family (white and black) ran
ging from sixty to eighty, no death has occurred,
nor has a physician been called to any case, attrib
utable to the health of the place, or has any ague
or fever of any kind, or other disease occurred.
And last, but not least, no sign or sound of mos
quito of any description has ever been known upon
the place.
To a person aeslring long life and a pleasant
one, this place offers rare attractions
Plantation furniture, stock and , provisions will
be sold with the place if desired.
Application may be made to me, upon the prem
ises, or to O. G. Parsley & Co., at Wilmington.
