tbo pulpiteer til' Plymouth Church and

country in blood and immorality than
all tho efforts of any one hundred per

debauched both races. Tho demor

To glvo our reudera an insido view
of tho moral training of tho negro race
down South, under the same instruc
tors, wo pull to tho witness stand a GO
year old Mothodist negro preacher, ol
Raleigh, North Carolina, who can keep
quiot no longer and therefore issues
tho following address to his people
Road what ho says carefully:
To the Freedmen of North Carolina :
I dosiro to call your attention to the
fuct that among our pooplo crime is on
tho incroaso ; stealing, robbery, murder
and crimes in all tlieir hideous forms,
seem to havo taken possession of our
pooplo, and it must bo stopped. The
penitentiary is filled to overflowing,
tho jails and wuik-housos are no soon
er emptied than thoy aro tilled again.
rollow countrymen, you must awoke
to this dreadful stato oi affairs and gird
on your armor and battle against crimo
in all its ltirms. Alimstorsot tho gos
pel, deacons and class-leaders, go to
work, impress upon your people tbo
danger of entoring into tho paths ol
crimo, which sooner or later, if this
continues, will ongulf our entire race.
This is no exaggerated appeal ; go
to tho court-houses aad look at the
dockets; go to tho jails and you will
see tbera tilled ; go to tho penitentiary,
to the railroads and tho public works
and you will sue hundreds of our raco,
in striped suits, tailing and working as
a pnnishmont for crimes committed be
cause thoy wero too lazy to work be
fore. During the January term ot
Wake county court over thirty colored
persons woro convicted for stealing:
only about five wero acquitted, and
only three white men wore convicted ;
is not this a sad reflection upon our
raco t Colored men and women, go to
work, stop stealing, stop going to tho
court-bouse.
Stop stealing and lying and cheating
and go to work, and wo willjio a happy
and prosperous people. Hero aro some
of the cases in our last court: Ono man
sentenced to the penitentiary tor steal
ing a goose ; one for stealing a cow ;
one old, gray-headed woman "and her
two sons for stealing a hog and a sheep.
Fathers and mothers, mako your
children work ; don't encourago idle
ness, tho father of crime. Colored
people of North Carolina, you must
arouse to tbe necessity of doing some
thing to put a stop to this thing, or we
are a ruined pooplo. Hoep it before
the people, talk to thorn, preach to
them, exhort them by every lawful
means, to live honestly and in tho fear
ot uou. in your cliurcnos, at hoiao,
in tho school. house, everywhere, keep
alive tho fact that crime must be stop
pod. In tho namo of heavon, 1 im
plore ovory preacher, and ovory man
of influence, to go to work and do
something to put a stop to crimo among
our people.
lnmk ot it, ye mothers and wives
and daughters in time, for you know
not bow soon you will seo one of your
bolovod ones being led in shackles and
handcuffs to tho felon's cell. Think of
it in time, and God will bless and re
ward you for it
I am an old man and I write this in
tbe hope that 1 may arouse our people
to the importance of taking some steps
to put a chock to crime which is stalk
ing abroad in out land, and cutting off
in tuo primo ol lilo so many ot our
pooplo.
To the preachers of Raleigh, and to
the poachers all over the State, i es
pecially look to for somo good work.
Lot thorn preach every Sunday and let
them take tlieir text from tho criminal
dockot of their county. Thoy will find
plenty of case which will furnish
abundant material for a powerful ser
mon. Bring this matter to tbo atten
tion of the people, so that thoy may
think and ponder over it and resolve
to better their Faya.

HARSH TREATMENT.
. Tho scalawag and carpolbag oflicials
in Mississippi and South Carolina aro
boing rewarded for their patriotic efforts
in those States. Tho Legislature in
tho former Stato has' jnst Teported lot
tersof impeachment against Lieut. Gov.
Davis and School Superintendent Car-
doza. The voto in the Legislature
stood 101 to 4 only four friends in a
body of ono hundred and fivo peers.

s Tho vote in the South Carolina Leg
islature, whore three of tho Stato offi
cials aro on the rack, was equally as
emphatic. It also looks now as though
a portion of tho Louisiana Stato officials
would he similarly rewarded.
It is as clear aa the sun at noonday,
that nino ont of evory ton of the mon
who havo hold official positions in tho
Southern States, sinco 18C5, under tho
Immediate control of tho Radical load

less and corrupt, resorting to both

roui has robbed tho South of millions
of dollars j yet, when ono of them is
gobbled up and sent to the penitentiary,
not one of thorn has enough monoy to
pay tho attorney for defending him.
Such are somo of tho practical results
of Radicul statesmanship.

We have somo notion of going to En

kind. ore we a citizen of Osceola,

sound and orthodox by ninny, His
sermons woro not only theoretically
correct, but they woro full of fluo sen

which be delivered from the pulpit on
tho Sunday bof'oro his flight with bis
plundor.was unusually sound and swoet,
and was greatly admired by his audi
tors. Tho rovorencd forger's religion
was mado up of just that sort of thing
dogma and rapture. Ho noilhor
preached nor practised tllttt great fea
ture of all genuine religion which i
called righteousness. IJu carried on
hia deviltries while ho held on to his
creed, and saw no inconsistency be
tween his evil ways and his Sunday
sori)ions, There are not many clergy,
men who pruelitio (brgury ii) thp yiiis

of Ihein who aro just as negligent s
he was in regard to tlio inseparable re

Tue Mexican Cattle Thieves.
General Ord, commander of the Mili
tary department of Texas, was before
the liouso committee on Texas fron
tier troubles on Saturday, and gave an
account of the eattle raids to which
tho country for a lungth of 500 miles
and breadth of 150 on tho American
sido of the Rio Grand ia subjected.
The general says the region of thoso
forays is soparated from the rivor by
an extonsivo belt of undergrowth for
est of chapparal, which lurms a screen'
and shelter for tho cattle thieves, and
that tbe worst class ot Mexicans livino-
on the Texas sido act as apius and in-
uiriuurs tor tne raiuers. rue inlelll-
gencu received tnim thoso dishonest
Mexicans enables the thioves to avoid
tho routes by which they might be in
tercepted on returning with their nlnn-
der. On the Mexican sido. the raidinir
bands, which sometimes numbor from
100 to 150 men, aro leagued with the
local aathoritios, Cortina being thoir
recognized chief: henco evory facility
is givon thorn for the disposal of their
plunder, and the restoration of tlio
stolon cattle ia not thought of. Gen
oral Ord thinks the Mexican govern
ment powerless in tho matter, and that.
therefore, tho only remedy is to in-'
crooae the military force on tbe Rio
Grande, and authorize him to send
troops in pursuit of the marauders to
tho Mexican side, and deal summary
punishmonlon them.
Babcock's Trial. The outlook in
the Babcock case is lhat tbo General
nay bo acquitted, but more from the
want ot evidence than from conviction
of hia innoceme. His ten Inwvons
have vigorously fouirht to koon out all
evidence for tho prosecution. Grant's
testimony is to tbe cnuot that if ISub-
cock waa connected with the whisky
ring he docs not know it. He saya
that Babcock explained all tho"Svlnh'
and "Grit" telegrams "in a satisfactory
manner," but he does not say what tho
"manner" was. lie ooncludes hia
deposition with a atronu assoveralion
of his belief In bis secretary's inno
cence. But hia asseveration should
not weigh any more iu a court of
justioe than Bishop Kerfoot's voluntary
uwovenivitiD oi jsr. avory s innocence

it should not weigh so much. For the

acters, like Collector Tom Mumhv.
