A Mgro peddling patent medicines panned through the county about three week* ago distributing copica of the C?ru#*t*r anti taking subscription* where be could get them, we are informed.The CmHidi'r la favored with an intelligent and unscrupulous corres-pondcnt from thia county, who, w* learn make* hla living out of the county school fund and was educated ( I) at one ol the inaUtultona run by the State to fit the negro for Ju»t such mischief as this fellow i* engaged In, and also to learn these young bucks not to cu'tuca* them-selvaa by any kind of manual lalnir but to get a livirg out of politics, the school fund, or by bamboozling the more ignorant of their race in some other way.W« have not seen a copy of this paper, but from those who have seen it learn that iu miasion is to help the Republican party by stl ring up had blood betwean the racas.This may ba of easier accomplishment than the general public suppose The majority of the oolored people in the Ktate certainly wish to work for an hoaeel living end live In amity and peace with ttie whites and this is especially true of this county. There are others of the younger brood, however, who are restless and dissatisfied and who may, if allowed, create a strife which can result iu but one way. Some whites may be killed in a conflict brought on by anch advice as Chalmers, Wimberly and the CVuoadr'r Is giving to the negroes, but, in such a contest the negroes will go dowa, worsted from ten to a hundred fold, just in proportion to the damage they may have been able to inflict upon the whites.Honest men, white and colored, cannot afford to Mkt up the gaunt-let for cattle thieves and the like. Nor can honest, hardworking colored men afford to b« unfriendly or gst into difficulties with their white neighbors aud fellow citizens !ecause such renegade white trash as Jimmy Chalmers, and deaf Lynch, who not two months ago was a Democratic candidate for the legislature in his county, head a so-called Republican Mate Ticket which has one lone, solitary colored tnau upon It. We say In all kindness but with earnestness to our colored friends and fellow citizens, beware ut CrumditH and Chalmerses, and give them a wide berth.Since writing the foregoing wo have been favored with a copy of the CVaamfr of the 28th alt. It is published by a company (limited) and one L. A. Martinet is given as Acting Manager. It is evidently an irresponsible sheet, reckless of con* fteqttc02es, whose sole aim is to stif the oolored people up to deeds of riot and blood-shed. If it la spread broadcast over this count; and is as eagerly read by the colored people report* to us iudicitle, the con-on those carnivals of crimes and of-Us lake a band in them. The perusal of a letter in another column from trustworty correspondent will tell the reader how they carry on. The killiug of those two officers isthe result of the lawlessness prevail-og in that county and in the Stale. Who sows the winds reaps the whirlwind.'*VYt will state that so in lt;ch of our space is devoted to I his scurillous paper aud its lying correspondent for tha purpose of Informing ojr people of what is going on below the surface in our midst, and also to warn the honest, industrious and right thinkiog of the colored race mi this county 'Ho stand from underand not permit themselves to bsdrawn Into antagonisms which will prove a misfortune to all classes of our people and especially to Uutm.POOL SELLING AT THE fAlliLif GnovsD8.i - TiLast week we stated that the clause in the regulations of the Fair Association forbidding -betting on races sod pool telling on the Fair Grounds had been abrogated by the Board of Director. on Tuesday of that week.This statement was correct, but the Board of Directors held a mcetlog on Thursday of last week at which they rescinded their action taken on lueaday iu referenoe to the poo! selling, leaving thst clause as It Mtands in (be catalogues.VVa were not aware that the Fair Director8 had held a meeting on Thursday or rescinded their action on Tuesday until after the Kki*ubu-C.VX was published. As the clause forbidding pool selling, etc., was published in the catalogues issued and for other reasons of expediency it seemed best to the majority of the directms to allow the matter to stand as published foi this year.
