The 'Conduct of the Southern 'Negroes
Since their Emancipation.
think it due to the reader and to the
general public to-give them some curious
information as to the social state of Vir
ginia for some mOnths past. During this
time, In , most of our counties, we have
"-bad no law *Shies, and in consequence
no law or
,government; yet our people,
black and white, even on the eve of most
exciting elections,
were as pacific, as or--
derly and as fr eefroin crime as any peo
ple 4fi the world. Indeed, many Inge-
Woos persons begin to maintain that gov
erncrient 4 Eizteediess thing, and that pub
lic opinion and correct views of self-in
terest would enable us to dispense with
the cumbersome and costly machinery.
I hold no such opinions, but cite these
facts to prove that there is not the slight
est foundation for the popular rumor and
opinion that there is cause to apprehend
a war of races at the South. Our pros
pechi, are very hopeful, and we rejoice to
find that many sensible persons at the
North are becoming aware of it, and are
rapidly settling, in our midst.
- The negroes, When first emancipated,
were turbulent and. disorderly, and coin-
Milted Many crimes, but at no time since
their liberation have they been half so
lawless r so Aurbulent, so beggarly or so
'cri'minal siS"were the' emancipated serfs of
England for several centuries, according
to the unanimous testimony of historians,
and the still better testimony of many
acts of Parliament enacted to puniah their
mendacity, vagrancy and crime.
I should fail in doing • justice to the
whites of Virginia, and I believe of the
whole South, were :I not to add that since
the:war, although exposed to trying volt
ocailops and temptations, they have been
peaceable, quiet and orderly, and crimes
and .misdemeanore have been of ex
trentely rare occurrence among them.—

Heating , R 1411144 Caii.
In devising niethOdi lieating rail
road cars winter in'such'a way - as to
avoid the terrible scenes which so fre
quently occur when there is a 611ision
or other ,accident, we Must not forget
that the same problem has presented
itself to experienced railroad engineers
abroad, and that on many), of the rail
roads inEurope a solution of the prob
lem has been in a great measure attained.
The methods made use of there consist
usually in adapting a steam heating ap.
paratus to this purpose, so as to carry
steam from the locomotive boiler, or from
a special boiler just behind that through
all the cars from one end of the train to
the other. Under each car runs an iron
tube, properly enveloped in some non
conducting substance, connected between
the cars by rubber 'or gutta-percha coup
ling, and with a stop-cock in it at
the lowest point of the curve for allowing
the condensed steanf to escape frotn time to
time. From the main tube smaller tubes
pass into the cars, which arel connected
with cylinders under the seats, or with
other tubes running along the sides of
the car. In some instances special stops
are applied, by which the steam can be
cat off from one seat of a car without in,
terfering with the rest; but generally,
the arrangements are such that the steam
can be shut off from one half of the tu
bing, while the rest is free to act. How
far this process has been introduced into
the United States at present, we are not
able to state; but there seems to be no
reason why its application may not ( he as
satisfactory generally here as in Europe;
At any rate, we would commend the sub
ject to our engineers and mechanics in
the hope that they may devise something
that will answer the purpose in question.
The English Telegraph Lines.
The plan of the British Government for
buying up the _telegraph lines of the
United Kingdom, now before Parlament,
seems to' meet with public favor. The
companies are to be allowed twenty years'
purchase of the net profits of their busi
ness up to the 80th of June last year.
The sum which they originally claimed
was £7,036,037. From this sum the Gov
ernment proposes to deduct £1,320,990,
and give to the complui'es ;the sum of £5,-
715,047 for their propertt in the under
takings. In addition to this payment
there are other payments which it is ne
cessary to make to the railway compan
ies and to other parties, the general result,
of which is that the whole payment to be
made by the Government amounts to the
sum of .46,750,000. The gross yearly in
come of the lines is estimated at £873,838,
and the expenditure at £359,448, which
leaves a net profit of £314,354: Deduct
ing four per cent, interest for the sum ne
cessary for the purchase, there will remain
a profit of at least £44,000 a year, and if
the money be obtained at 31 per cent.,
£77,000. As the income is increasing at
the rate of 18 to 32 per cent, per annum,
the profits to the Government will become
still larger than this. It is believed that
the ratesmay be considerably reduced and
a profit still derived by the Government,
as has been the case with the Postollice
Department under the cheap postage rates.
This seems to be a reasonable expectation,
and, if realized, the bringing of the lines
into one complete system under Govern
ment control will • prove a great public
benefit.
The Corn crop.
Reports from local correspOndents re
ceived at the Department of Agriculture
since August 1, indicate &general decline
of the oorn crop as compared with the
yield of 1868. New Jersey, Pennsylva.
nia and Delaware, in the East; West Vir
ginia, Kansas and Nebraska in the West;
and Arkansas, Alabama, Louisiana, Flor
ida and Texas, in the South, are the only
States which report the condition of the
crop equal to, or superior to that of last
year, at the corresponding date. Illinois
and Indiana, which together produced
one-fourth of the corn crop of 1868, re.
port the present condition of the crop at
25 to 30 per cent. below that of last year,
with an average acreage somewhat de
creased, owing to the late and unfavor
able Spring.
Ohio and.lowa report 20 per cent. be
low last year in present promise; Michi
gan, Minnesota and Wisconsin 20 to 30
per cent.; Virginia, North Carolina. Ten
nessee' Kentucky and Missouri 10 per
cent.; New England 10 to 15 per cent.,
and New York 20 to 25 per cent. below.
Of the few States reporting the crop as in
better relative condition, Texas rates 20
per cent. higher than last year, with in
creased acreage, and Arkansas and Kan
sas about ten per cent. higher, with large
ly increased acreage in the latter State.
The probabilities are that the crop will
fall considerably below that of last year,
and with continuing drouth and early
frost may fall very far short. Timely
rains and a late Fall may yet do much for
it, however.
The "Positive Motion .Loomu
On exhibition at the fair of the American
Institute, at New York, is thus described
by the Tribune: The shuttle is carded
through •the warp instead of ' being
knocked or driven through, its IMpulse
being inseparable from that which moves
the reed, so that, if the shuttle should
ever ne stopped in its course, the reed is
also arrested and held fast till the shuttle
has moved on and cleared the web.
Friction, pulling, breaking yarn, itc..
are thusprecluded; the power required is
greatly reduced; while a web of any con
ceivable width may be woven with ease.
We yesterday saw one of these looms
weaving drugget nineteen feet wide, yet
requiring no more attention than an or
dinary loom; while the finest and heavi
est silks were being woven without fault'
in a similar loom beside the former.
Though this invention Is "scarcely a year
old, and its development had been greatly
retarded by a fire, •which consumed , the in
ventor's premises six months since, yet
more than forty of his looms ate now reg
ularly at work, 'arid hundreds more will
be so as Soon as they can be made. In
fact, the weaving of the world•must rap
idly be transferred to' looms based on this
inventiOn- , ,

igr SCHENCK'S ruresiroNrc
BYRLP.. SEAWEED TON/C AND
MANDRAKE PILLS will cure Consureption,
Liver Comp t Tt end Dyspepsia, If taken accord
ing to ditecti ns. They are all three to'be taken
at the slime e. They Cleanse the stomach, le
lax the !Ivor and on; itto work; thee the appetite
becomes good ;' the food digests and makes good'
blood; the patient 'begins to grow, In flesh; the
diseased matter riieras into the lungs, and the ,
patient outgrows t he disease and gets well. This:
:it the only way to cure consumption.
To these three medicines Dr. S. H. Schenck, of
Philadelphia, owes his unrivaled suttees* in the
treatment of pulmonary Consumption. The Pal
monic Syrup ripens the morbid - matter In the
lungs, nature throws It off by au easy expectora
tinn, for when the phlegm or matter Is ripe a .
slight cough will throw it off, and the patient,has
rest and the lungs begin to heal.
T do this, fre el yaeed 'lonic and Mandrake
Pills must be need to cleanse the stomach
and liver, so that the fralmonle Syrup and the ,
food will make good blood.
Schenck's Mandrake Pills act upon the liver,
removing all obstructions. relax the duets of the
gall bladder, the bile starts freely. and the liver
is soon' relieved; the stools will show what the
Pills can do,• nothing has ever been Invented ex
cept calomel (a deadly po'son welch is very dan
gerous to use tines& with great care,) that will
unlock the gall bladder and start the secretions
of the liver like Schtuck's Mandrake Pills.
Liver Complaint is one of the most prominent
muses of Consumption.
Schenck's Seaweed Tonic is it gentle stimulant
and alterattve. and the alkali in the Seaweed,
which this , pmparation Is made ot, moats the
stomach to throw out the gastric juice to dissolve
the food with the Pulmonic Syrup, and It is made
Into good boost without fermentation or souring
In the atomaoh.
The great reason why physiclaris do not cure
Contain Lion is, they try to do too scuch,• they
give medicine to stop the cough; to atop chills, to
stop night sweats, hectic fever, aud. by so doing
they derange the whole digestive
_powers. lock.-

Schenck,
Dr. ln his treatment, does not try to

the cause, and tkey will all atop of their
own accord. No one can be cured of Consume
tion, Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Catarrh,
Canker,' - Dicerated - Throat, unless the -liver and
stomach are made healthy.
if a person nas consumption, of course the
nags in some way are diseased, either tubercles,
abeesses, bronchial irritation. pleura adhesion,
or the lungs are a mass of inflammation and fast
decaying. • In such cases what must be done? It
is not only the lungs trait are wasting, but it is
the whole body. The stomach arid liver have lost
their power to make blood out of fo d. Now tne
only chance is to tale Dr. Schenck's three medi
cines, which will bring up a tone to the stomach,
the patient will begin to want food, It will digest
easily and make good blood; then the patient We
gins to gain in flesh, and as soon as the body be
gins t the o
pa gr
t ow, the
gets a cs hs commence to heal op.
and idet y and well. This is toe
only - way to care Consumption.
When there is no lung disease and only Liver
Complaint and D.yspepsia, Schenck's Seaweed
Tonic and Mandrak.e Pills are sufficient, , without
the Palmonic Syrup. Take the Manerake Pills
freely in ail billions complaints, as shay are per
fectly harmless.
