The man who keeps his nose so close to the business grindstone that health is neg- lected may build up a fortune for his heirs, but is that com- pensation enough for the pain~ racked nerves and the disease- worried system?

THE NEGRO PROBLEM-

The negro problem in the United

States was by no means settled when the emancipation proclamation of President Lincoln was issued thirty- six years ago. Since that time tlie population of the Republic has more than doubled and the number of Afri- can descent has increased from four millions to seven and a half millions. By the proclamation of Lincoln the enslaved negroes, like those who had before been nominally free, became citizens of the State and entitled to all the privile;_'»,'es of citizenship. But in the south, where the -grea.t...bulk of the colored population are located, they have not been permitted to realize the high hopes they had entertained of equal rights and privileges with their white brethren. They were, in fact, ill qualified to become citizens. They were ignorant as they were' poor, and superstitious as they were ignorant. A century of slavery had broken what- ever spirit of manhood was with- in them, and when declared to be free they still retained the disposition and feeling of subjection. Every in- vention that ingenuity could devise and that malice could inspire was re- sorted to in order to keep them still in practical subjection to the will of their former masters. By state laws and a system of terrorism they were prevented from exercising the the votingprivilege. And by the sys- tem of lynch law they were deprived of fair trial then suspected of any olfence |aga.inst the laws. As a result there is increased, rather than diminished hostility between the white _ and colored races. This is not the case in t-he Republic at large, but is true of the old slave states in a very large Vmeasure. In the states of Louisiana, llllississippi and South Carolina the colored people exceed the whites in number, while in the states of Georgia, Virginia,Alabama and North Carolina the relative numbers of the two races are not very disproportionate. Schools and colleges have brought to the ris- ing generafion of the colored people a. sense ofthe value of thedibertles and privileges to which they are con- 'stitutionally entitled, but of which ` they have been deprived by e force or fraud. Hence the natural nisposition on their part to assert their rights and the resistance on the part of their former oppressors,which have brought about from time to time beginnings of a race war, such as we read of having recently occurred in Delaware.

As to the danger of a general negro

uprising, leading on to the for-mation pf a negro nationality in the south, it may be disposed of without much labored consider ation. The negro population of the United States mgkgg up less than one;eighth part of the entire people, and statistics go to show that the white population, with its large gains from immigration, in- creases almost twice as rapidly as the colored people. Everywhere the whites are crowding in upon them, and absorbing their small possessions. The instincts of the c -lored people A and their continued subjection render them unable to hold their own in

competition with the more energetic and thrifty whites. There ex; ceptions, of course, but the general

U9 yet clomon the vergggg _V andxivith no' ros not I9" I

4, that their condition will somewhat

thgiie in the land of their ancestors. Social philosophers have spe- culated whether in case of this _ being _ done the negro would lapse into* barbarism or retain the measure of civilisation he now has and perhaps be the means of building up ncivilized and Christian community among the natives or the Dark Con- tinent. But these speculations are idle and useless. The negro people have no disposition to return toAfrica and they cannot be disposed of in any siich fashion without their consent. The future ofthe colored people of the south must be worked out where they are. Gradually it may be hoped

improve, but their numbers will con- tinue to forma. smaller and smaller proportion of the total population of t_he country, and not for many gener- ations to come, if ever, will they ex- ercise any considerable iiiduence in the,country’s a.ii`airs. America is now a white ma.n’s country, however un- righteously it has become so. The N egro's wrongs, like those of the In- dian, are not ended. By sheer force of numbers the African race will long survive in America, but its future is clouded, almost to hopelessness.

Mr. Smart, Deputy Minister of the

Interior, makes a good report in re- gard to Northwest immigration. Lastiyear some eifort was made to in- duce immigration from the western States of the Republic and about 700 were secured. This year over 6,000 of the_same valuable class have come in, with a good deal of farm stock and money. Next year a much larger number from across the line are expected; in fact, the current that l`e"merly_ set southward across the beindary line has now been reversed ani i“the flowing tide is with us.” This year also the immigration from Great Britain has doubled. In regard to the Gallicians, Mr. Smart says that Canada has got but a small part of these people that are emigrating to the new world. South America. gets the bulk of them, and in Argentina whither most of them go, they are considered.. to he a. valuable class of settlers. Canada has received 5,000 Gullicians this year and Mr. Smart has received very favorable accounts of them.

A very had attack of the Grippe _Gul

year ago last winter left my system in l very wealutate and in -nerYous_lyltcu_\. completely unstruug. ter gettfug Over the dangerous stage of“ the diseuel naturally expected to gain strength, but, unfortunately, did not db so. 08 thi contrary, my blood' beca.rne.wea.ker. I daily lost strength and vitality, my. herv,ous system became so weak that it was a constant source of sntfermg both _lay and night. I lost appetite, the sight of food nauseated me, the weak state of my system caused shortness of breath and unnatural action of the hurt, such

` as tluttei-ing and violent palpitation, and

my face was like chalk. I was in this condition and constantly getting weaker when I began taking Dr. War ’s Blood and Nerve Pills. I had read the books they distributed and their advertisements in the papers, and thought, “ W_ell, I have taken so much medicine without benefit it is useless to spend any more money. However, I finally made up my mind. It is a. forlorn hope ; I can but try. If I am not benefited I will not be hurt. So I bought one box and received great benefit therefrom, so continued their use, and to-day am a well map in consequence; my blood is strong, my lace has the ruddy hue of health, my appetite has_ returned, I sleep well, I have not the slightest rn- dications of nervousness or heart trouble, and from a sick, weak, nervous man Dr. Ward’s Blood' and Nerve Pills have transformed me in six weeks to full health and strength." I am yours very truly,
