An old man totters on the road Bow'd down with age and care ; His locks are white and float about Like snow flakes in the air; The clouds are gath’ring darkly round, The night seems settling fast, The winds sends forth a moaning sound, The owlets flutter past. ‘ The old man halts along the road, He sees the gathering gloom— No hope has he—no power to stay His fast approaching doom. He sees the children pass him by, And sadly turps his face ; - He knows too well that he must die, The New Year take his place. He hears the children clap their hands And shout aloud for glee, He marks them hasten on their way The glad New Year to see, And then he hears the midnight chime Ring out his funeral knell; His life fades fast—he rests at The New Year breaks the spell. A little child now leads the way— His step is light and bold, His hair is bright and floats about Like threads of burnished gold. The clouds are passing swift away, The mora seems soft and clear, The night has pass’d—the sun’s bright ray Brings in the glad New Year. Farewell, Old Year ! vour work is done, A new one fills you place; The darkest night will pass away The morning dawn apace! We cannot bring the dead to life, Nor wasted hours recall ; But in the coming year we may, Perhaps, atone for all. ee The eubjoined lines were suggested by the death of the young lady from Ga., who was burned at Salem college a short while ago : From the Chronicle and Sentinel.

O, mother! whose bleeding heart, In the torture’s stress grows wild— O, father ! whose heart-strings seems to part, At the name of your perished child, Think, think, of the woes of life— Its agony, passion, strife, And comfort take as you look on her, Clothed for the tranquil sepulch re, With her closed eye and pallid brow), That never more, Yea, never more, By sea or shore, Can the frozen pulses, grown so still, To the wrench of a mortal anguish thrill, Or hersp‘rit writhe with that speechless pain, (A very madness of heart and brain), Which rends your spirits now.

The ship River Eden cleared from London on the 15th of September for Valparaiso, with a general cargo, in- cluding something over one hundred tons of gunpowder, and a quantity of lucifer matches. Nothing unusual oc- curred on the voyage till the 7th of Oc- tober, when the master, Capt. Bowden, commenced to behave in a strange manner. His conduct wasattributed to insanity. On the 14th of the same month the bark Elizabeth Graham was sighted. Thechief mate of the Eden, Mr. Clarkson, sent a boat to the Eliza- beth Graham to request her commander to come aboard. He did so, and had a consultation with Mr, Clarkson, whom he advised to place the Captain under no restraint, as he seemed hamless, but to soothe and keep him quiet, and to make for Pernambuco. About mid- night the ship was found to be on fire. In an attempt to secure Captain Bow- den, he wounded the second mate by a pistol shot. Thecrazy Captain had poured parafine oil on his cabin floor, and fired it. The terrified crew had only to leave the ship. The Captain refused to go, and was left by the crew, who pulled on board the brig Jannita which was fortunately near. Two of the latter’s crew volunteered torescueCapt. Bowden, and succeeded, and almost immediately the River Eden blew up. Four days after the rescue, Captain Bowden managed to jump This drama sur Charles Reade’s “Foul Play.” The horror of such a situation as the six- the Eden were in, is almost beyond the reach of imagination, and is another proof of the truth of the saying, that truth is stranger than fiction. —_—___~-e LrGIsLATIVE SUMMARY.—The time of the House yesterday was wasted by the uselesa fillibustering of Republican mem- bere. The game began over a bill to fur- nish improved arms to military schools in the State. Ti came out during the debate on the bill that Governor Caldwell had refused to furnish arms to the military Hilt was ove of the Protessors of the In- atitation. This display of partisanship on the part of the Governor was charac terized and denonuced by Measrs. Brown, of Mecklenburg, and Joues, of Caldwell. Mesgsre, Bowman, Duala and others on the Repuodlican side of the House eadeavored to detend the action of the Governor in the matter and to prevent the passage of the bill. Mr. Dula was particularly clam- orous for the production of the correspon. dence between ov. Caldwell ang Colonel Thomas Superintendent of the Military Institution at Charlotte, avtil Mr. Gorman, a Republican, intimated that Gov. Calds well’s part in the said correspondence was as objectionable as that of Col. Thomas. The bill passed its second reading after much captious opposition on the part of the Republican side of the House. Again, on the bill to arrange the 4th Jadicial District and to change the time of holding courts therein, was mach valua- ble time wasted by the fillibustering on the part of the Republican members. All sorts of frivolous mo’ions were made and the yeas and nays demanded on each of the motions, to the complete clog of all other legislation. They even attempted to break a quorum by a number leaving the Hall at a preconcerted sigual. In spite of their opposition, the bill passed its second reading. No valid objection was raised to the bill and the opposition arose simply from lobby efforts. ‘The Senate yesterday was oceupied al. most exclusively in the passage of a large number of private bills. The consolida- tion bill eame back from the House with a number of amendments all of which were concurred in, with one exception.—Lals eigh News, betore christmas. —_——__—~<- A Pitny SermMon.—Many a sermon has been spun out toan hour’s length that did not contain a tithe of the sound, moral instruction and counsel to be found in the following brief and pithy sermon from the pen of that witty and racy writer, Rev. Dr. Jehn Todd, deceased : “You are the architects of your own for- tunes. Rely upon your strength of body and soul; take for your motto self-reliance, hontsty, and industry ;icr yourstars, faith, perseverence, and pluck ; and inscribe on your banner: ‘Be just end fear not.’ Don’t take too much advice; stay at the helm and geer your ship. Strike out. Think well of yourselves. Fire above the mark you in- tend to hit. Asaume your position. Don’t practice excessive humility. you can’t get above your level—water don’t ran up bill. Pull your potatoes in a cart over a rongh road and the small ones will go to the bottom Energy, invincible determi- uation, with the right motive, are the levers that move the world. The great art of commanding is to take a fair share of the warld. Civility cost nothing and buys everything. Don’t drink; don’t smoke ; don’t swear; don't gamble ; don't lie; don’t deceive or gteal ; don’t tattle.— Be polite; be generous ; be self-reliant. — Read good books. Love your fellow man as wellas you love God. Love your country and obey its laws. Love truth. Love honor.

More than three-fourths of tha litigation of the people of the country would be saved if people would put down their agreements in writing and sign their names to it. Each word in our language has its peculiar meaning and memory may, by a change in a senteuce convey an en- tirely different idea from that intended.— When once reduced to writing, ideas are fixed, and expensive lawsuits avoi-~ ded. <b o The Scientific American publishes a full description of the proposed great tow- er to be erecced in Philadelphia at the centennial.

A large | buck, closely pursued by that famous stag- bound, Old Ring, belonging to Mr. Hopx kins, took water, and headed right out to sea; the dog without hesitation boldly ‘followed him in his veyage over the “dark |and treacherous waves.” They were , watched with intense interest by the hun- ters until each was a mere speck upon the surface of the sea, and until they were . finally and totally lost to’ view. After some time, when it was supposed that both dog and deer had found a watery and per haps a bloody graye,.in.martal combat, or been devoured by sharks, a small object was discovered, which proved to be old Ring returning from his long swim, much expausted, but reaching the shore in safe- ty. Butto the greater surprise of the spectators, after a time the deer also aps peared in sight, making right for shore, on reaching which he was shot down by one of the hunters. —__~+<.@-__ thSome skeptic carried a dark lantern to ere entertainment of the Davenport 8roth- ws, at Westerly the other evening, and t hen the dark scene came, and the gui- lars and bells were busy, turned on the ight.

Year by year a death roll of those who have died at sea in the fishnig fleet is kept.

The London correspondent of the New York World, under date of Wednesday, the llth inst,, the third day of the extraordinary fog that enveloped the city, mentions, among other things, the great mortality it had caused among the cattle on exhibition at the anngal show of the Smithfield Club. On Monday, two days before, there was not a single case of sickness among the large number that ap- peared before the judges, but by Wednes- day at least one third had disappeared from the stalls. The explanation of this singular fact is that the long continuation of the fog had so vitiated the air as to poison them outright. Twenty-five died in twenty four hours, and ninety-three had to be removed during the same time. Nore of them, uo matter how big and hardy, seemed proof against the attack of this strange enemy, whieh seemed to single out cows, bulls and oxen for distinction, leaving sheep and hogs unharmed—the latter not appearing at all affected. —_ 6 Nathan Rothschild. In Harper’s Monthly for January, Mr. Junius Henri Browne contributes under the tanciful title “The Koights of the Red Shield,” a history of the Rothschild fam- ily, with portraits of ita principal members. Those of our readers who may not be millionaires will feel a grim satisfaction in perusing the following which may serve to make them more contented with their lot: ‘The wretchedly rich Nathan Roths child never went out alone after dark, never entered an unlighted room, had servants within call of his bed chamber, slept with loaded pistols under his _pil- low. A fellow Frankforter, dining with him one evening, and observing the luxury of his household, remarked: “You must be happy, Baron, with the power to gratify every wish.” . ~ “-Happy, indeed !’ was the response. ‘Do you think it happiness to be haunted always by a dread of murder, to have your appetite for breakfast sharpened by athreat to stab you to the heart unless you enclose a thousand guineas to some unknown villian 2” “On one occasion, when the great financier had been to an exyening party, and had gotteu into his carriage to go home, a friead, wishing to make an ap- pointment, stepped out to speak to him. The timorous banker mistook his familiar friend for a highwayman, and thrusta pistol out of the carriage window, with his favorate cry of ‘Murder!’ before he could be acquainted with the situation.” ee ee , First Fruits of the Forty- Third Congress. — Thetwo houses of Congress having adjourned over to Monday, the 5th of January, 1874, the record of their doings for this month cf December is before the country. It does not amount to much, and it warns the country to prepare for a long, exhaustless and compatatively pro fitless session. Five millions of money have been voted to complete the repairs commenced by the Secretary of the Navy on our available ships of war; a miserable apology in the shape of a modification of the increased salary and back pay grab of the last Congress has been passed by the House; also a general amuestry bill and a half-way re-construction of the Bankrupt law—all of which have been hung up to dry in the Senate. A bill providing for the redemption of the loan of 1858 (sixteen millions) has passed both houses, and this recapiculation covers the legislative works of the two houses since the first Monday in December.—N.

But what a crop of trouble springs up A Lake Mystery. A Frozen Boy Steering a Yawl Boat. Sunday morning two farmers and thier families, who were driving to Malden to attend church, noticed, when about eight miles below, or east of the town, a ship’s yawl on the lake, heading towards the beach, and about‘a half mile away. They could plainly make out a man in the stern- sheets eteering the boat with an oar and, although there were no vessels in sight, and the morning was so pleasant and the sea 60 smooth that it was supposed that the man had put out from the shore to pick up something, and Lut little attention was paid to the yawl. Passing the same spot on their return the men foued the yawl hard on the beach, and the man sit~ ting stiff and motionless in her stern. Leaving. theis wagons they discovered that the man was lifeless and frozen as as hard as a stone. He sat bolt uprighi on the seat, the oar out behind and both hands claeping the handle, and it required hard work to wrench it from his death-grip. ‘There was about one foot of water in the boat, but the eraft did not show rough usage. ‘The man’s legs were almost covered with ice as far up as his Knees, and the spray had dashed over -his back and shoulders and froze there. There was no uame on the boat, and the person who brought the information to Windsor yesterday could not say. that anything was found on the person of the man to reveal his idenity, or to show how he had been cast adrift. It is not believ- ed that be put off from any vessel, but it is the theory of some of the marine men that he was driven from some of the is- lands or from some point down the shore. No one could say how long be had been afloat or when death overtook him, but he must have been dead at least three days or more. ‘There was neither sail nor mast to the boat, and nothing in it but the one oar, showing that the poor fellow had not ‘intended a long trip anywhere, and he | must have been blown off the shore. —He had uscd his oar to keep before the wind, and had froze to death on his seat, where he was 8o firmly held by the ice tbat it had to be broken with a stone before he could be pulled off. For days, and per+ haps weeks, the frozen mau gat there with his icy fingers clinging to the ashen oar, and the gales and the waves spared him to reach the shore and receive a christain from the seed ot debt. Jlow many sleep. less nights result from it! How many gray hairs it brings, and how often it short- ens life—sometimes leading men to com- mit suicide or murder. And yet how easy a thing it is to keep clear of this ter- rible monster.

Rail Road, and consolidate with the Atlantic Conference brought to the same Synod, $206.20, making a difference in favor of the Eastern Conference of $14.07. Then accord- ing to the author’s own logic, the Eastern Conference has as much, or a little more right to.complain;. put instead of comp!aining it approves of the distribution made for the printing of the Minttes. The author of that editorial may now see-that those “ few un- reasonable individuals” comprise a large and respectable portion of the N.C. Synod.’ In the number dat@d Oct. 31st, of “ Our Church Paper,” the author attempted to cor- was over, and the people submitted in silence to what was a great wrung, under the hope of relief fiom still greater burs dens.

Rail Roads, producing a consolidated line of railway, from the Seaboard to con- nect with the Georgia and Tennessee Roads. We are unable to see any objection to this scheme, althongh there is. a uumber when did the Secretary admit “that he could have saved more than thirty dollars to Sy- nod if he had not listened to those few un- reasonable individuals”? He can infer it only, because the Secretary never said that he admitted it. In regard to last year’s Minutes. The Se- cretary of last year said, he was not so well pleased hithself with Messrs. Blum’s edition of the Minutes, because they used such an inferior quality of paper, &c. It has been supposed that Mr. Bruner would have print- ed the minutes of 1873 on such paper for $55 or $60. : . A minister of the Western Conference said, / he thought we did exactly right to employ frieuds of the grab, who were most anx- ious for its passage, and yet fearful of the responsibility. On the great test two votes would have turued the scale, for the re- cord stood—yeas. 100; nays, 97. If Mr. Doe tt, Mr. Lansine, Mr. Lamport, and Mr. St. JoHN of this State, who voted for the BOTLER scheme, or two of them, had changed to the negative, the grab would then a..d there have ended. They are directly answerable for it. This experience was repeated in the the Standard Medicine for all such complaints, as well as fur Dyspepsia, Liver Complaints, and other kiadred disorders. For Coughs and Colds, Canker, Asthma and Rheumatic difficulties, it has been proved by the most abundent and convincing testimony to be an invaluable medicine.

Still, in or- der to carry on our business successfully, we must adopt the cash system. We therefore urge our friends and patrons to come forward without delay, pay up old scores and renew their subscriptions.

Fine Pigs for Sale. MR. JOHN C. MILLER, a farmer and citizen of this vicinity, offers to deliver Pigs, safcly caged, at the depot in Salisbury, when old enough lo wean, at $10 per pair, or $6 a single one. The Pigs offered are from his highly improved Sow which has taken the first premium at the three last Fairs at Sal- isbury. Her dam was imported from Eng- land—crossed by the Essex and Nohone. My premium sow is jet black, lengthy, head short and broad, short legs. Has from ten to sixtcen pigs ata litter. Would net, if fat, 400 Ibs. Orders sent from a distance with the money, will be promptly attended to. I have slaughtered pigs this Fall from 3 different litters of my premium sow: The first was one that took 1st premium as a fat- ted hog, at Salisbury Fair, 23 months old, netted 503 Ibs.pork. The next, was one that took 2d premium, netted, at 17 months, 405 Ibs. The next Jot, was three sucking pigs which took 1st premium: butchered at 5 months, less a few days, and netted 127, 125 and 122 Ibs. pork. I have one young sow which bids fair to surpass the dam of these slaughtered hogs, when full grown. ~ JOHN C. MILLER.

On the evening of the 1st January, iust., LILY AGNES, infant daughter of S. H. & M. C. Wiley. The church of Third Creek, Rowan co. was called in the Providence of God, with his fami- ly, friends, and the community in general, to mourn the loss by death, of one of its oldest and most valuable members, in the person of Mr. David Waddell. He had attained the ad- vanced age of about 76 years. He was a regu- lar attendant and liberal supporter of the church which he joined more than forty years ago under the ministry of Rev. J. D. Kilpatrick. He was born and brought up in the same vi. cinity, where he spent his long and useful life. Having had in his earty life few advantages of schools, yet of good natural talents, he acquired a good practical business education. His large experience, methodical habits, and stern integ- rity of character, rendered him in general a wise counsellor. He avoided all litigation, and was the promoter of peace. Not aspiring to any public office, he confined himself to the affairs of his farm, and the quiet of domestic life, Of great industry, and accustomed to la- bor from his youth, he acquired a competency, and always enjoyed being busy when his health permitted. A gentleman of the old Presbyterian stock, he was polite and bospitable to all, and es- pecially to ministers of the gospel, who always found a home athis house. The wife of his yonth, with whom he lved very hapy 54 years, survives him with four danghters; two married with families, and two unmarried, to lament his sudden separation from them for a season ; or, rather they feel warned in the Providence os God, to make ready for reunion with him, in that better world where parting is unknown, His decease leayes a vacancy in society difficult to fill. No further seek his merits to disclose, Or draw his frailties from their dread abode, ( There they alike in trembling hope repose ) The bosom of his Father and his God. | eamesnnact ae NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.

TUTTS VEGETABLE ) Aa THE ONLY KNOWN MEDICINE THAT AT THE SAME TIME Purges, Purifiesand Stength eas the System. Dr. Tutt’s Pills are composed of many ingredients, Prominent among them are Sar- saparil'a and Wild Cherry, so united as act to- gether: the one, through its admixture with other subst ces, purifying and purging ; while other isstrengthening the system. Thus these Pillsare at the same time a tonicand a cathar- tic, a desideratum long sought for by medical men, but never before discovered. In other words, they do the work of two medicines and do it much better than any two we know of, for they remove nothing from the system but im- purities, so that while they purge they also strengthen and hence they cause no debility and are followed by no reaction. Dr. Tutt’s Pills have a wonderful influence on the blood. They not only purify without weakening it, but they remove all noxious par- ticles from the chvle before it is converted into fiuid, and thus makes imbilitation, so there isno nausea or sickness attending the operation o, this most excellent medicine, which neverstrains or tortures the digestive organs, but causes them to work ina perfectly natural manner ; hence persons taking them do not become pale and emaciated, but on the contrary, while all impurities are being removed, the combined ac- tion of the Saisaprillia and Wild Cherry pnri- ties and invigorates the body, and action.

One day in théeammer of 1872, by that time hav- ing bétome a filthy aud disgusting beggar, he piteously begged a policeman to have him sgt to the island.

It is renvarkably healthy reading for the times. We copy for the bencft of our readers the concluding passages. It will be seen that Judge Black éstab. lishes most conclusively that the cunning, vily, tyrannical, wicked Secretary of State was resposible for the war that raged so fiercely for years. Kt will be seen that he, William H. Sewatd, could have dissipa- ted the lowering'eloads so heavily charg- ed with death ‘add destruction. But he was bent oh carrying out his infamous and devilish doctrine of the “Higher Law” although it devastated the land and dis- cord. Bat here is what Judge Black has to say, and it is worthy of an attentive reading»:si' 5 Sinee you and Mr. Welles and Mr. Blair have put on record your personal reminiseences of Seward, I will add my contribution, believing that the tact I am about to mention throws a broader light on hia pablic character than any which you have given. When the troubles were at their worst, certain Southern gentle~ wen, through Judge Campbell, of the Supreme’Conrt, requested me to meet Mr. Seward and see if he would not give them some ground on which they could stand with safety inside of the Union. I can- not, within these limits, set forth even the sabstance of it. He seemed eonscious of his power and willing to use it in the interest of peace and union, so far as he could.without the risk of offending his own party. What could he do? Many propositions were discussed, and rejected as being either impracticable or likely to prove uselese, before I told him what I felt perfectly sure would stop all contro- versy atonce and forever. 1 proposed that he should simply pledge himeelf and the incoming Adwinistratian fa qanern according to the Constitetion, and upon every point of constitutional law to accept that exposition ot it which had beenor might be given by the judicial authorities. He started at this, became excited, and viox lently declared he would do no sich thing. “That,” said he, “is treason; that wouldmake me agree to the Dred Scott case.” In vain I told him that he was not required to admit the correctness of any particular caee, but merely to submit to it as the decision of the highest tribun- al, from which there covld be no appeal except to the sword. You will see thatif such a pledge as this had been given and kept, the war could not have taken place; it would have left nothing to fight aboat; and the decent men of the AntisSlavery party would have lost nothing by it which they pretended to want, for even the Dred Scott cave had inured to their. practical benefit. But Mr. Seward must have giv- en up the higher law and deuied bimscelt the pleasure of kidnapping Democrats. I had never before heard that treason was obedience to the Conatitation as con~ strued by the Courts ; but this prepared me to learn, as I did some time afterward, that the correlative virtue of loyalty cons sisted in trampling the laws under foot. What should the world think of the states- manship which introduced these notions 1? I do not know, bat I believe that Mr. Seward, in consequence of the conversa- tion above mentioned, goi Mr. Lincoln to commit himself in the inaugural to the absurd and miechievious declaration that he would moé take this law from the Su- preme Coart, but would take it from the Chicago Convention. Your address has undoubtedly done much to diminish what little confidence was left in the Govern- ment as a protection to our personal rights. We cannot help bat feel that the security of life, liberty and property must be fear- fully slender in a country where a citizen of your standing can openly say that the owner and tinkler of the little bell was a statesman whose example ought to be universally copied. You are a leader of the party calling itself ‘Liberal Republican,” whose plat~ form is a protest against iniquity in high places, and whose movements are a strug- gle for the restorgtion of honest govern- ment. Your compatriots know, if you do not, that the evils they deplore were introduced by the man you advise them to imitate. The party you oppose for its hideous corruption, has but fash- ioned its moral ard political principles upon the model which you now declare to be full of beauty and goodness. Your personal consistency is nothing; but to go back in this way, not only on yourself, bat on your friends and your country, is too bad. . Tt is hardly safe, now-a-days tu name a dead.

C. in the last nine, mooths over $3.600.--l'here were eight other Auxiliaries which the District Sup- erintendent was unexpectedly prevented from visiting, who would probably have paid several hundred dollars, thus swell- ing the receipts of the past nine months to nearly $4,000. The following Auxiliaries have supplied their respective territeries in whole or in part: Alexander, Bertie, Buncombe, Cabarrus, Craven, Carteret, Chapel Hill, Caldwell, Davidson, Durham, Gates, Granville, Heoderson (Granville co..) Henderson co., Hyde, Jonesboro, Lenior, McDowell, Mebauesville, Rowan, Salem Bible Association, Tirza, Wake, Wilkes and Wentworth. Owing, however, to the failare of many of the auxiliaries to keep proper records, it has been found imprac- ticable to ascertain the amount of work which hrs been accomplished, As far as returns have been received, they show a great amount of destitution. 1 Cabarrus county one-fifth of all the families visited were found destitute.

F an eye- witness we have obtained the following circumstances ofthe bloody affair: A picnic was given on the day of the mur- der, which was attended by joe Norton, a private policeman (a man of usually good character), and Squire Cabell, a well- known desperado. A great deal of drink- ing bad been going on during the picnic, and it is presumed that the parties men. tioned were slightly intoxicated. Norton got into a quarrel with a man named Henry Wizer, a companion of Cabell in the army, ina barroom near the place where the picnic was held. Cabell after- warda took up the quarrel of the latter, and Norton and Cabell began shooting at each other in the midst of the crowd on the dancing ground. Five or six shots apiece were exchanged, neither of them receiving any wounds, but the shots takn ing effect in the crowd, one woman receiv- ing a ball in her leg and one man being wounded in the hip. Norton then ran, with Cabell and others at his heels, Cabell throwing his pistol at Norton while in pursuit. Norton ran along the road for nearly a mile, with the others still in pur- suit. Cabell met two ladies in a carriage coming towards ‘him, and, forcibly taking the horse attached to it, mounted it and galloped after Norton. He overtook the latter just as he was jumping a fence, and when five or ten steps distant from him shot him eight or ten times, and it is said afterwards stamped upon him, for fear that life was still remaining, although Norton died instantly. ‘The crowd which maa with-an idea anda fortune of about $6,000, a student at the o of Marseilles. This young man was so de- voted to his idea thes he heaped his little fortune upon it, and, with a telescope and other inatraments, set sail alone for the solitudes of Soathetn seas. Hefory sey- being ted so dnt ee eee set the Faach pursued, | and his reasons for entertaining them at the expense of his time and fortune. He believed, speaking. unscientifically, that the moon was altogether more cracked than modern astronomers imagined, and he went. to the South seas alone, that, being there in that region, where passed the deepest shadow, he might see the sun- light peeping through the cracked moon at the time of the next eclipse. He went away to the South, even to Piteairn’s Island, ereeted his rade observatory, gain- ed an old sailor to assist him, aad they two, with eyes front and instruments pointed, awaited the shadow. It came. Straight through the rugged recks the rugged sunlight shone as one sees a gleam through a crack in the door. A cry of joy came trom beneath the telescope.— The sailor turned photographer, caught three negatives of the penetrating sun. bean. The youth with his idea possessed now proof, to him sufficient, that his belief was not a vision but a scientific reality, and he writes to his old instructor in France, with all the enthusiasm of a boy who has stormed a snow fort, and with all the exclamation points of the success- during his lonely'vigil at Piteairn’s Island to make him declare “that our lovely satelite is not only a shell, and not ouly a shell full of cracks, but a shell that is ruin with @ constant, a savage, a frightful velocity.

It has on its roll thirty-_ seven life members and between 60 and | 70 annual members. Is not this “the banner society” of the State? Let all the auxiliaries emulate this example, and christain men throughout the State would soon be able to rejoice in the conscious~ ness that every home in our State, was in possession of a copy of that precious volume, which carries whereever it goes, | those Divine influences, which never fail | to enlighten and save all who are willing | lto yield their hearts to their gracious power. — In the ninety-five counties in the State, there are one hundred and thirteen Auxi- liariea, twelve Branch societies and four Bible Comwittees. During the twenty | one-months, in which the present Super- | intendent has been in the field, all of these | societies and Committees except two have been visited once, and seventy-eight have been visited a second time. The condition of the Bible work in the State, iz, on the whole, favorable and full of encouragement. Though prosecuting hia duties at times under many difficulties and discouragements, the District Super- intendent, indulges the hope that under God’s blessing much has beea accomplish- ed, for which there is cause for devout gratitude. He trusts that he leaves the Bible cause in a much better condition than he fonad it. He earnestly prays | that all future efforts to cireulate the Bible among our people may receive the hearty ‘and uuited support of all christains, and ‘that the Great Head of the Charch may :erowr these efforts with abundant suc cess. Fifteen thousand Democrais failed to vote in thé late election in Texas.

Several weeks ago Detective Antie became possessed of information of his exact whereabouts, and skillfully worked the case up, assisted by Detectives Fritsch and ‘Tiller. Having obtained a requisition from the Governor of Tennessee, Detective Antle started to Nashville Friday night and was met on his arrival there by Detective Larry Ryan, of Nashville. ‘They went to the place where Cabell or Griffin stayed. As they reached the place four men came out of the cooperage establishment, and Antle, who had known Cabell fifteen years ago, They fol- lowed the party iutoa saloon, when Ante accosted him with “How are you, Squire?” Cabell, who was standing at the bar, turned around and looked the detective in the face. “Don’t you know me?” asked the detective. Cabell stared at him for several minutes in astonishment, and final- y answered, *‘No.”’ “Yes you do,” replied the detective, “you are Squire Cabell.” — The latter stoutly denied hiz identity, maintaining hia name to be Squire Griffin. No) it isn’t,’ said the detective. “I've known you for a number of years. My naméis Antle. Don’t you know me?” Cabell, who-had known Antle before he was connected with the police force of this city, thereupon recognized bim and cor- dially shook bands with him, admitting that his name was Cabell. What was his astonishment when the detective pulled out the requisition and read it to him? Cabell acquiesced quietly to his arrest, and remarked that he was glad that he had finally been discovered, as he wanted to have a trial to end the unatter. He was brought to this city at twelve o'clock Saturday night on the Nashville train, and lodged in jail. Cabell is a small man, about five feet five inches high, weighs about 135 pounds, and is now thirty-four years of age, with brown whiskers and moustache. He has a wife and foar child- ren.

His pictare of affairs is gloomy enough, and as it is applicable in some degree to other States than his own, we believe we will render a service to our readers in giving a sketch of his addrese, in which he so urgently points out a reme- dy. He says :— “From Cvery quarter comes up a wail of omeplatay: Agricultare is languishing, labor demoralized, the cultivators of the soil are in debt, their lands and crops mortgaged, they are borne down with tax- es, and are growing poorer with every re- volviug year. Aid’ the condition of the State ts equally discouraging. Her treas- ury is bankrupt ; her credit gone; her in~ stitations of learning suspended, and the government itself without the means to defray its ordinary expenses. This is, indeed, a oe eee for both State and people. And is it true? If so, there is certainly something wrong, radically and feartully wrong, somewhere; and some- body is grievously at fault.

Such an impact, if it were of suffi- earth from its orbit, send it grazing on a spiral into the sun, or flung on a hyper- bole out into freezing space. Or the same resistlees force might, in falling, crush in the surface of our own planet, break through its crust and deluge us with lava and steam, suffocate us with escaping gases from our own subterranean labora. tory.” Is not that a beautiful paragraph? The reader may think that the moon is not the only cracked thing in existance, but re- strain the thought, for the above occurs just above the signature of Yvon De Pontecoulant, of the observatory of Mar- seilles. The thought that the moon may be thinking of sending a heavy shell hither to avenge the many insults which men have heaped upon her, is the only one which presses after the eager Marsellaise have done their worat. While we do not believe the moon or any part of it-is com- ing hither until the great creative spring now regulating plauatary motions, and ruling their gradual approaches, shail have wrought its perfect work, still we protest against giving the moon any further ground for even consequential damages We doubt not she is proud of her beauty and jealous of the adoration which it commands. [1 is neither safe, or polite, nor wise, to call her a cracked and suicidal termagant.— Utica Herald. ee Iris THE “GOOD MEN” WHO OWE THE Prinrer.—lIt is less strange than true that nearly all ot the so-called ‘good men,” that is the healthy and wealthy men of the country, are they who are the tardicst in paying the printer. ‘The man of small means almost invariably pays up and keeps clear of tle books —he hasa fellow feeling for those who toil, and pay at once for what he gets. But the good man! he of whom everybody says, ‘‘oh he’s good for it, you know’—we lament to say is the longest in paying. Why is itso? For the reason that they think two or three or five dollars is such a small amount to them, that it is as trifling to the printer. “good men”—you are laboring under a delusion. Add all of the small amounts tpgether and it will make you think other- wise.

In North Carolina this feeling practix cally manifested itself a year ago in the Fourth Congreasional District, onc of the wealthiest and most populous in the State, by the élection 43 Representative’ in the Forty-thfrd Congress of Witiiaw A Suits, Independent, who was chosen simply because he favored repudiation, which was opposed by his competitor at the polls. «= Mr. Sarita is a shrewd, self- made man, and probably the most’ influ. apon reflection, entirely ina .

We have said that we believe the farm- ers’ movement originated in proper mo- tives, and while in pursuit of the ends to which such mutives legitimately led we did not fail to commend them. When this movement had taken form and begun to exhibit strength, we thought*we could see unmistakable evidences that the inno- cent pu poses of the unsuspicious farmers were being moulded into. shapes which hoped to float into notice, if not into place upon the popular ewell of cheap trauspos tation. Shortly clap-trap speeches were made ‘tpon the grinding oppressions of a tariff which should give encouragement to home manufactures ; against the vile im- positions of railroads that could not move freight below cost; asserting that the people, i. ¢., the farmers, were the govern- ameut, and that it should be directed and controlled by them. All of this souaded very well from the rostrum, and the poor armers eagerly clutched ‘the worm pro- vided by these expert anglers to learn the folly of their conduct when it was too late to escape the meshes in whi¢gh they were entangled. It isthe opinion of well- advised men in the West that the order of the Patrons of Hasbanitry is fast drifting into, if it has not already become,-a poli- tical order, and its granges. political lodges, by and through which a new party is to apring from the ; decaying Republican party, to be.its successor tu the rule of this imperial domain.

Senator Conkling who sits near the middle aisle, intercepted | the messenger on his way -to the desk, Ajand taking the list of nominations from | him burriedly glanced over them, ex~ claimtng in a tone lond enough to be heard in the galleries, “Chief Juatiee !” At this a large number of Senators jumped from their seats and gathered a- bout him, and ina moment the name of some time.

The nomination of Gencral Cashing re- calla the fact that after the death of Chief Justice Chase, the President's first choice as hie snecessor was Senator Conkling, who declined the appointment. Then he made ap his mind to nominate General Cushing, it beiug thought by him that toward the close of his Administration, General Cushing would retire from the bench by reason of age, when the place thus vacated could be filled by Attorney- General Williams, whom the President desired should meantime remain in the Cabinet. General Cushing’s nomination not being at the time aeceptable to the majority of the Oabinet, inclined the Presi- dent to hasten his purposes with regard to Mr. Williams, and now, after the with. drawal of the nomination of Mr: Williams at his own request, the President has’ re turned to his original position’ and,’ after a Cabinet consultation, has nominated Ca- leb Cushing. ; This nomination, having been read in executive session, was referred: to . the Committee on the Judiciary.

Cold and damp are inimical to health, and we generally have an unwholesome combination of the twoat this season. ; They penetrate the skin and integuments and affect the muscular, glandular and nervous organizations, producing rheumatism, neuralgia, chills and fever, and where there is a tendency to dyspepsia or liver complaint, provoking an attack of indigestion or billiousness. The best advice that can be given under such circumstances is to keep the external surface of the body warmly clothed and to keep the internal organs in vigorous working order with the most wholesome and genial of all tonics, Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters.

Other objections to it I reserve for a general view of the whole sabject, which 1 desire to take, ia support;of the amendment whieh I had the henor ta offer as a substitute for the bill. First. This bill assuming the State to be insolvent, proposes with $6,000,000 to pay something over $22,000.000 of our debt, which reaches nearly ‘$40,000,000, and for that purpose, it divides the hold ers of our bonds, for that amount, of debt into three classes. The first and a eae bonds to the amount 632,200, are to be paid fifty cents in the ier Phos second elass, holding bonds to the amount in the dollar, and the third class, holding bonds to the amount of $11,181,687, are to receive twenty cents in the dollar. Now as the entire debt of $22,000,000 consists of State bonds of $1,000 each ; and as by the provisions of this bill, each and every one of these bond holders, is allow- ed to come in separately to your Pablic Treasurer and demand and receive a new, a good bond for his old one, according to the per centage allowed to the class, to which it belongs: Now suppose only one-half of the bonds making this $22,- 000,000 of debt, shall thus be presented and exchanged; what I ask, will be the consequence to the State? Simply thie. You will have incurred a new and valid debt stronger even than the special tax bonds of $2,000,000, and you will have imposed an additional annual tax of $180,- 000 upon the people ; which will be als ready levied by the law creating it, and beyond your power to recall, alter, or change ; and yet there will remain against us outstanding and unpaid, $11.000,000 or one-balf of this same debt. For one I am not willing to make such a bargain. And I cannot believe the people will ganction euch a financial scheme. Sir, let the friends of this bill amend ir, by requiring all the bonds representing the entire debt, of $22,000,000, o be first filed with the Public ‘Treasurer, before he is allowed tu issue a single new bond. Or at the very leas , let the State be pro- tected by a satisfactory guarantee, that all the bonds shall come in and be ex- changed on the terms offered by the bill. We will then have security against cruel disappointment; a heavy burden of in- creased taxation ; and an entire failure to restore the credit of the State, in the money markets of the world. ‘lhe Seaa- tor from Randolph has no hesitation in assuring us that all the bond-holders will agree to the compromise, then they are all ready tocome forward with their bonds. Let them do it : Sir, there is another objection of a like character, to this bill far more important and fatal. ‘There is another large class of State bonds outstanding against us, which are not embraced io this bill at all, I mean the special tax bonda, amounting in prin~ cipal money alone to $11,400,00, with several millions of past due interest upon them, and increasing annually at the rate of $684,000. Inthe very forcible speech which the Senator from Randolph (Mr. Worth) made in support of his bill, he denounced these special tax bonds as fraudulent and void, and had no fear that any court would ever enforce them against us; and therefore he left them out of hia bill. The Senator from Mecklenburg (Mr. Waring) asks me if I think, there is any mode by which these special tax bonds can be collected ; and if 80, how it can be accomplished. I had just reached that very point, and will proceed to ans swer the inquiry. As an individual, I believe these bonds to be unconstitutional and void, and join in the condemnation of them as fraudulent and infamous. But sir, my opinion or the solemn declaration of this General Assembly to that effect will not relieve us in this great emergen- cy. Itisa question for the Courts to decide. And the Courts have already epoken. Ln the Supreme Court of North Caroliua, in the casé of University Rail- little act, of,one man, is all that saves the people of the State from the collection or the altempted collection of this endrmous and most jniquitious tax: By a single bair the fatal sword is suspended over us, And at this very moment, we are threat- ened with new suits to compel the collec- |. tion of this interest. Sir, let us waita a little longer, and be in no burry to take this leap ia the dark. And when we do act, let us consider well and deliberately what we are abatit, and make a sure and safe bussiness of it, and not make the ters rible hautk, which I fear this bill would load us into; by’tthposing and additional A Little Fellow’s Petition. mmorere vd ius ; 7 One of thoes tifal eteries that. seem to, inate‘ + ‘s tet f r ¢ : wie fy as a 2ak cames taius from the great metropolis.

THE SUBSTITITE FOR THE BILL. I will now proceed to the consideration of the amendment which I have had the honor to offer as a substitute for the bill under discussion. These resolutions affirm four proposi- tions : 1. That the people are so muca impov- erished by the war as to be unable, af the of the public debt. II. 'Fhat our new State Government impoecs as heavy a burden of. taxation upon the people az they can bear in their preeent impoverished eircumstances. III. That the people of North Caro- lina are not responsible for the late war, or its calamitous consequences. IV. That the General Government, should assume the payment of so much of our public debt, as in justice and equity, ought to be paid. Or at least, should lend to the State such fiancial aid and credit as will enable us to provide for the total extinction of the debt, upon just and reasonable terms, without oppres- ing the people. OUR LOSSES BY THE WARK. First Proposition. The people are so much impoverished by the war as to be unable at the present time, by taxation, to pay any part of this Public Debt Sir, is this true? Allow me to read a paragraph, from the able statement of our public debt, which is presented to us by the Public Treasurer, in this aunaal Re- port, aud will be found on teuth page: “T have already stated, says the Public Treasurer, these losses which are demon- | strated by the present condition of the in- | vestiments entered iuto by the State. It! is not necessary to add to the list the enormons destruction of our property by the war; the annihilation of our system of labor, the ruin of our wealthiest people by the aboiition of slavery ; the death or, disabling of multitudes of ovr young men— in battle or by disease; the sweeping | away of our personal property, our horses, our cattle, our farming implements ; the deterioration of our lands. It is not ne-' cessary to call to mind the cffects on a million ruined people, of the financial troubles of 1867, and the present year. | Every fair minded man will admit, that if ever a State ean be justified in demanding" that creditors should abate a part of their detands ; proportioned to losses, unfore- seeu by both parties, at the time of the creation of the debt, that State is North Carolina.” Sir, what are the items embraced in this comprehensive statement of our losses by the war? I will cnumerate some of them: Let us estimate the loss of 331,000 slaves worth in 1860 $200,000,000 Bank Curreney at 8,000,000 Bank Stock at 8,300,000 Investments in Internal Improvements, to all loss at 21,000,000 ; Destruction aud loss of all other property, deterioration of lands, and loss of labor sys- tem, at 6270,000 $300,000,000 And we have a grand total of $300,- 000,000, whieh summwill be fully sustain- ed by @ fall examination of the subject. Yes Sir, we may put down our material loss at not lesa than $300,000,000. But road Company against Holden, Gov., re- ported in 63 vol. of N. C.

Ihave the case befére me and refer Senators particularly to the opinion of Judge Settle, in which he condenses the opinions of the other three associate J udges and agrees with them in pronouncing the bonds to be constitutional and_ valid. Here is the voice of the highest Jadicial Tribunal in the State, declaring the bonds to be good. And but a few days ago, here ia the city of Raleigh, the Circuit Court of the United States followed the lead of our Supreme Court, and declared the bonds to be good, and declared further that the aet of the General Assembly which repealed the Act creating the bonds, was itself unconstitutional and void. But supposing the Courts do bold them to be good, by what process I am asked, can they be possibly eollected? Sir, I an- swer the question with a feeling of con- cern almost amounting to terror. By the very acts of the Legislature by which that $10,400,000 of our State debt is created, an actual levy is mrde upon all the real and personal taxable property of the State, of fof 1 per cent, to pay the annual interest during the whole period of 30 years which they have to run, fo be collected as other taxes are collected. And Sir, it &% by law made the business and duty of the Auditor to have that tax col- lected as other taxes are collected. And it is done simply by adding another column to his tax schedale, when he is- anes it to the Sheriff of the State. That by what rule will you arrive at the loss to | the State of the thogsands of the flower of ‘her youth, and the prime of her raanhood who fell in battle, or lingered out their lives in prigons and hospitals; and by what rule will you estimate the public loss to the State, arising from the annual emi- gration of large numbers ot our most pub- lic spirited energetic and valuable citizens, reluctantly leaving their native State with ‘all its strong ties and memories, behind them, to fight the great battle of life in strange lands, becauee, from our rnined condition, they have no sufficient trast and confidence in the belief that North Carolina can again regain her former pros- perity ? But we mast add to this dark and terri- ble enumeration of losses and calamities one other, greater than all the rest.

Clean the roots ot the tree and cut out the borer; have a amall bruzh something like a marking brush, and cover the wound.

[Richmond Dispatch.] On the 22d of March, 1838, following up his ideas, he said : “I now undertake to affirm positively, and without the least fear that I can be answered, what heretofore I bave but suggested, that a paper issued by Gov~ ernment with the simple promise to rex ceive it in all its dues, leaving its eredi- tors to take it or gold and silver, at their option, would, to the extent that it would circulate, form a perfect paper circulation, which could not be abused by the Gov- ‘ernment; that it would be as steady aad uniform in value as the metels themeclves, and that if by possibility it should de- preciate, the loss would fall not on the people, bat on the Government itself ; for the only effect of depreciation would be virtually to reduce the taxes, to preveut which the iuterests of the Government would be a sufficient guarantee. I shall not go into the discussion now, but on a suitable occasion I shall be able to make good every word I have uttered. I would be able to do more; to prove that it is within the constitattonal power of Con- gress to ase such @ paper in the manege- ment of its finances, according to the most rigid rule of construing the Consti- tution.” Thus we see that the great South Caro- lina statesman foreshadowed the present national currency, which bas proved to be one of the greatest of national blessings. But for that currency this country upon coming out of the late civil war would have been reduced to a degree of help- les ruin the bare idea of which is pain- ful. Mr. Calhoun did not then dream of 80 large a national debt as we now have. — He, however, suggested the Goverament credit as the best basis for a* paper cur- -reney. He seemed not clearly to see ‘ how enongh of that currency for the wants of commerce was to be set afloat. His ' idea was that it could be paid out by the Government to its creditors, and was to _ be received agaiu by the Government in | duries and other payments from the peo- ple. Circamstances he never anticipated afforded the way and the basis for sup- plying the country with @ national paper ' currency —all his predictions with regard | to the credit and convenience of which have been completely fulfilled. Mr. Calhoun was one of the greatest statesmen this country has ever prodaced, and time only proves the wisdom and forecast of his giant mind. ee Oe A boy of Cohoes, fifteen years of age, and another of Potteville, sixty-niaelyears of age, were mariied the other day, the bride of one being thirteen and that of the other fifteen.

Tae Rorys oF JAMESTOWN.—Jamess town was settled by the intrepid John Smith, May 13th, 1607, and was, as ie well known, the first English settlement on this continent. It wasa peninsular then; itis an island now. The water long since forced a passage through the narrow neck that connected it with the main lend and lef: it an island. Bat the effect of attrition did not end here. For nearly a mile from this locality ‘the noble James” has been gaining on the land. So much of the old town is now under water and, at low tide, evidences of this fact have sometimes heen discovered in the debris that is left there. The old tower and ruins of the church are now lese thau fifty yards from the water and mast, in time, be submerged unless some actiun be taken’ to prevent it. The tower, ivy- grown and picturesque as it is, lifts iteelf some thirty-five feet above the plain, and is eighteen feet square. It is impossible to ascertain the exact date of the construc tion of this old building, for it was not the firat church erected there, though it,was doubtless built early in the 17:h centary. As the site of it is included in the fifty acres deeded to the authorities of James City for public houses, some steps should be taken by the county or State to pres serve it from further demolition, and to prevent it from ever passing under the absolute control of private parties. ‘The and hence the greater necessity for action in the premises to preserve this memorial of the first settlement of Virginia.

They soon became separated ; the one had reached his destination before the sun had sunk bebind the Western hills, where he made himself comfortabie at the inn. His only trouble was concern for his laggard companion. He thought surely some evil must have befallen him. Long after dark, his fellow companion arrived. When asked the cause of his delay, he replied : “twas obliged to stop at every other house to whip off the unmannerly dogs that barked at me. Didu’t they bark at you?” “Yes,” replied the other, “but I did not stop to whip them. I simply told them that they were ill-bred cure, aud drove on.” We are generally losers in the end, if we etop to refute all the back-biting and gozsiping we may hear by the way.

[Signed | S U.S. Grant. mee THE LEGISLATURE. The greatet part of the time of, thid body, since its reassembling, has bee conshmeéd in the discussion of the billy (especially in the Senate), for the adjust- ment of the State debt. In the interim, the Senate has made a new county, Lil- ington, eut of a portion of New Hanover; taking Carteret and Ouslow from the 3rd Laud.Sampson from the 5th. Districts and, added them to the 4th ; made an_appro~ priation for the support of the Deaf, and Dumb and. Blind of $16,000 —$7,00 of which is to be devoted to the Asylum of the colored. The House has resolnted on Civil Rights and instrueted the Houerable mem- bers of Congress ftom this State not to go for it. But'the debt question is ccrtainly the great one with our Legislature. It is an elephant with which that body scarcely knows how to deal. Last summer, when certain papers were urging the adoption of the amendment to the Constitation with regard to the State debt, it was by implication, at’ least, de~ clared, that there would be no difficulty with the Legislasare settling the matter promptly und easily as soon as the con- stitational ‘provision was abrogated. Bat we told the people. the Legislature had no power to make a final adjustment of this debt question, and certainly that body has not yet donc it. _Sqme sort of a set~ tlement will no doubt be affected, but it will not be likely to prove more valuable than the paper upon which it will be printed, ufter it shall have been made, The people don’t mean to pay this grand swindle any how, so our might as well drop the question. Woe be unto him who by any vote increases the already burdensome taxes. ‘The al- ternative in dealing with monstrous or ex- traordinary measures ia either to ignore them or set about their riddance in a prop- er and ligitimate way. If this had been done the debt question would have been settled Jong since. Nobody doubts the capacity of the Legislature to deal with this matter if it only had the power. Here is the rub. ae Harris of the Concord Sun that the Legislature will defeat the bill is afraid compelling sheriffs and others to advertise the sale of property under execution, &c., &c. Mr. 8’s remarks on the subject are very pertinent and should receive con. sideration. The fact is the Legislature has never done any thing to encourage the Press in its efforts to promote a disposition among the people to read, or in its efforts to keep them informed upon matters of general and individual interest.s The Press has been struggling for a Jong time to impress upon the Legislature the importance of having all notices of public or private in- terests well advcrtised—such as the sale of property by Sheriffs, Administrators, Executors, or Guardians, as well asthe annual statement of all disbursing Boards, county and municipal—but it has thus far been unfortunate in its appeals to that body; and the people have remained in darkness, as to the doings of public offi- cers, or the disposition of their money.— Large sums are paid cach year by the peo- ple for county purposes, the Board disbur- ges, squanders, or disposes of it in rome ‘The people certainly should know what is done with their and should be made through the county paper way, the people know not how. money ; the statement in order that they may examine it careful, and not merely post it up at one or two This posting up at the court-lhouse reminds us of Caligula’s laws which were posted so high that the people could not read them, yet they Were puns ished all the same for disobedience of them. In regard to public sales, it is well known that great wrong is frequently done widows and orphans or the heirs of estates, by Administrators, Executors, or other officers, selling property not proper- ly advertised. It is not necessary to set forth how these great wrongs are done; for it must be patent to every one who fully observed its workings. If prop- erty is well advertised there is more likely to be a crowd at the sale, and the addix tion of a single individual not anfrequently enhances the value of property, or causes it to bring ten-fold the price of the adver- tising above what it would otherwise have bronght. Ifevery pertinent matter was properly advertised throngh the papers as it should be, it wld canse the people to look to their local papers for such information, they would become more. interested ia public affsire, there would be less chance for rascals, the people would read more, education would “be promoted, and a -healthier and better tone of morals would prevail.

The South, says our friend of the Fred- erickburg Herald, “is greatly in need of pluck. We have had too much whining and of cani. It is sickening. It losses us the respect of our upponents, and fails utterly in melting the adamantine heart of those who are still disposed to hunt as to the death, despite our capitulation and oaths that we want peace; peace only ; to be let alone.” We assent to all this, and hold in con- tempt those who would consent thus to degrade themselves and humiliate their section by unmanly whines and disgust~ ingeant. Yes, our contemporary ia right. “Pluck is what is wanted. Courage to do right for the sake of the right; nerve to resist the ancers and scoffs of the sen- timentalists, to boldly pursue such a polis cy as the good of our section may demand ; the manhood to set up for ourselves, and with the independenee worthy the sons of our sires so shape our courne as to compel the respect of others. But there is a “pluck,” the offspring of folly and near akin to cowardice, that we do not want ; there ia nothing more contemptible than the fangless serpent that hisses but to run away; than the yelping hound upon the lion’s trail that will flee with alarm upon his near approach ; than a nation, crashed and helpless, to vaiuly boast of its prowess when it is impotent to protect itself against the least aggression. No; may Heaven protect us from any such “pluck” as this, but grant us that calm, cool cour- age that walks aim in arm with prudence, wisdom and true digaity.x—Richmond Whig. Pluck is the word. It has been the want of it—the want of that manly cour- age and true dignity of character in our representative men in the face of our enemies, that has brought us almost to the grave of our liberties. We have had too much cringing-too much time-serving. Let our representatives in the legislative halls of the country hold up their heads and speak and act in a manner worthy the South and her gallant people. " The Exection of Joe Baker.— Joseph Baker, the slayer of Newton Wil- fong, col, was duly executed at Charlotte last Friday. The following short but complete statement appeared in the Raleigh News of Saturday last : RatyigH NeEws:—Joseph Baker, a white man, aged about 35 years, was exe- cuted here to-duy for the murder of a negro, named Newton Wilfong, on the 17th of February, 1873. The homicide was committed under. circumstances of in- toxication, and was both unpremediated and without motive. The stabbing details uninteresting. Baker at his first trial wae sentenced to be hanged on the 20.h of Jane last, but an appeal being, taken to the Supreme Court of the State, which tribunal affirmed the decision of the Court below. He was re-sentenced to be exe- cated on the 19th December last.. By a successful and desperate escape he again evaded the scaffold, but was recaptured and respited to January 2nd. A_ further respite waa then granted till to-day. An hour before the execution, his mother, wife, brothers and sisters took a final fare- well. Atl p.m. he walked down the stairs of the jail and resolutely stepped on the drop. In reply to an interrogation, he said that he had notbing to say, hav- ing previously admitted his guilt. ‘Chen in aclear shrill voice, he made a fervent appeal to tue Throne of Grace for mercy to his soul. After this the noose and black eap were adjusted, the rope by the drop was suspended was cut, and Baker fell about two feet. Strangulation then did its work. His etrugglea lasted about three minutes.. In twenty minutes life was extinet, and after hanging half an hoar the body was cut dowa, placed in a plain pine coffin and turned over to his friends for interment. There was a large crowd present, but only about forty persons were admitted to witness the exe- cution, which, in accordance with the law, was private, a. eee SLocums.

His injuries by the fall were very severe. They were dressed by Dr. C. A. Henderson, and he was put to bed. Before the retirement of these disinterested friends, however, the clerk of the hotel caused an examination to be made of the man’s property. and he was found to haye in his possession $41 and:some few cents.

Or did he just make a grand wiggle while in an unconscious state from brass knuckles and bludgeons, and + land on the cars and in Charlotte by accident ?

Théy penetrate the skin and integuments and affect the muscular, glandular and nervous organizations, producing rheumatism, neuralgia, chills and fever, and where there is a tendency to dyspepsia or liver complaint, provoking an attack of indigestion or billiousness. The best advice that can be given under such circumstances is to keep the external surface of the body warmly clothed and to keep the internal organs in vigorous working order with the most wholesome and genial of a]] tonics, Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters. Gradually but constantly this famousinvigorant is superseding the adulterated liquors of com- merce, as a medicinal stimulant and corrective, in all parts of the country. It will be a happy day ‘for humanity, and it will surely ceme. when this pure restorative shall have taken the place of raw spirits as a stimulantin all our public and private hospitals. It is not,’ however, merely a harmless substitute for the fierry stimu- lants referred to. Its stimulating properties are not its chief merits, although in this regard it suepasses all the unmedicated products of the still, domestic or imported. The powerful in- fluence it exercises over the torpid and toneless stomach, the disordered liver, the constipated bowelsand the relaxed nerves render it a positive specific in dyspepsia, ver complaint, intestin- al construction, nerves weakness, hy pochondria, yheumatigm and sleepleasness.

Bradly and wife Maria, Henry Earnest and wife Margaret, Calvin Bradly and wife Katmah, Jackson W Bradly and’ wife Martha, and Henry Miller and wife Mary Jane In this case it is made to appear to tne satis faction of the Court, that Calvin Bradly and wife Katmah, Jackson W Bradly and wife Martha, and Henry Miller and wife Mary Jane, reside beyond the limits of this State, therefore it is ordered by the Court that publication be medicine ofthe world, for there is no region | of the globeinto which i, has not found its | way, and none where it has not been largely | and highly prized. Moreover, there is no| climate to which it has not proved itself to be well adapted for the eure of considerable | variety fur diseases: it is admirably suited | for eyery race. It has lost none of its good | naine by repeated trials, but continues to} occupy a prominent position in every medi- cine chest; and is still receiving the most unqualified testimouials to its virtues, from persons of the highest character and re- spunsibility. Physicians of the first respec- tability recommend it as a most effectual preparation for the extinction of pain. Ii is not only the best remedy ever known for Bruises, Cutc. Burns, &c., but for Dysentery or Cholera, or any sort of bowels complaint it is a remedy unsurpassed for efficierey and rapidity of action. Inu the great cities of India and other hot slimates, it has become the Standard Medicine for all such complaints, as well as for Dyspepsia, Liver Complaints, and other kindred disorders. For Coughs and Colds, Canker, Asthma and Rheumatic difficulties, it has been proved by the most abundant and convincing testimony to be an invaluable medicine. Nov article ever attained such unbounded pupularity. Asan external and internal medicine, Pain-Killer stands unrivalled. Thirty Years are certainly a long enough time to prove the efficiency of auy medicine and that the PAIN-KILLER is deserving of all its proprietors claiin for it, is amply prov- ed by the unparalled popularity it has attain- ed. Itis aSURE and EFFECTIVE remedy I tis sold in almost every country in the world, and is beeoinivg more and more popu- lar overy year. Its healing properties have been fully tested, all over the world, and it needs only tobe known to be prized.

It was conservative then, and that has been its political charac- throughout its history. When Abraham Lincoln, in 1861, called for Southero troops to suppress by force the Southern Confed- ercy movement, the voice of conservatism was drowned by the roll of the drum aud the din of war; and all men, whacever their op- inion of the inovement, were compelled to take position for or against it.

C. ives the announcement of the sudden death of the Siamese Twins on Saturday Airy, Surry county, N.C. There are no detaile further than the fact that Chang was paralized last fall, since. which time he haa been fretful, very much debilitated and strongly addicted to drinking liquors as a means of alleviating his sufferings. He had been quite feeble for several days, to the bed, bat illness was not so great as to cause any anticipation of catastrephe that wasto follow. On Friday night they retired to bed as usual, but during the night Chang became worse and expired suddenly about four o’clock Saturday morning. As soon as it was discovered he waa, dead, Eng. became se terribl shocked that he raved wildly for a while, at times exhibiting signs of great mental abboration. This attack was followed by what seemed to be a deadly stupor, and in two hours, it is supposed, from the death of Chang, Eng breathed his last. All the papers thie morning have more or leas to say about the President's latest nomination for Chief Justice. From the Salem Press. DEATH of THE SIAMESE TWINS. BOTH DIE WITHIN 'TWO HOURS OF EACH OTHER. CHANG DIES AT 6, AND ENG AT 8 O'CLOCK, A. M. ENG SUPPOSED TO HAVE DIED FROM FRIGHT. Died, on Saturday morning last, at their residence, near Mount Airy, Surry county, Enc and CHanG BUNKER, better known asthe S1aMEsE T'wins, aged about 63 years. The above startling intelligence reach- ed this place on Sunday morning last, and created considerable sensation. Chang had been suffering from partial paralysis for some time, without, however, incommoding Eng in the least, This fact led many to believe that it was proof posi- tive that they might be separated without injury to either. All these surmises are at an end now, as death has elaimed them both within a few hours time. The twins resided at their present home for many years, having removed there from Wilkes county, where they had married two sisters. They both leave large families of interesting children, pos sessing a fair share of intelligence. Two of the children are deaf mutes. ‘The daughter recently married a deaf mu® at Raleigh, and her little brother is an inmate of the institution for deaf mutes in that city. In former years the twins exhibited themselves in this country and Europe, laying ‘the foundation to a comfortable fortune, which they considerably increas- ed by economy and good management. Previous to the war they owned slaves, generally overseeing the farm work them- eelves, and often laboring among the fleld hands. They could wield an axe with the best choppers in the country, plow, hee, aud were considered good farmers.— In putting up log buildings they were considered the best “corner men” to be found, using their hands with wonderful dexterity. Previous to the war they took a deep interest in the politics of the couniry and acted with thes Whig party. Since the war they made another tour of the United States and Europe, and after their return, led a quiet and retired life on their plan- tations. They were cunsidered excellent business men, and good citizens. ‘Thus the world loses the most remarkable humau curiosi ties who ever existed. The fcllowing ia a brief sketch of their early life, previous to their settlement in this State. Enc and Cuana (Eng meaning on the right and Chang on the left), were born in 1811 in a small village on the coast of Siam. Their mother bore seventeen chil- dren, once she had three at a birth, and never less than two, bat none of those of her children were deformed. ‘The parents were poor fishermen, and the twins em- ployed their early years in selling shell fish, until a Mr. Banker brought them to the United States in 1829. After their majority they adopted Mr. Bunker’s name, aud never returned to their native country. The following description of their unica may be interesting to the public: The twins were united at the anterior part of the chest, by a kind of fleshy band, the size of a hand. The band was fiexi- ble admitting of motion in various direc~ tions. The whole mass was tough and capable of being extended considerably. No puleation was felt ‘n the band. It is said when a pin was pressed into the exact centre of the ligament it hurt both, but as you advanced from the centre and nearer to the person of either, ouly one felt the pain. Since the above was written, we have received the following from a friend : Mr. Arry, Jan. 19, 1874. Messrs. Epitors:—The excitement here is the death of the Siamese Twine. It was an unexpected event, as they re- tired on Friday night apparently in good health, and were remarkably cheerful dur- ing the evening. A little before day on Saturday morning, Eng awoke and found his brother Chang dead. He immediate-~ ly aroused the family, and remarked that lie felt himself failing, complaiuing of ains iu the limbs, and died about two boars after Ghang. The entire medical fraternity of Mt. Airy started for the resi- dence of the twins, 4 miles from town, prepared to sever the ligament, but found both dead, and of course nothing was done. morning last at their residence at Mount indeed so much as to confine both brothers CHIcAa 7 bana four > { A very large crowd of people visited: the family on Sunday last, when the bodies were enceased in a tin coffin prepared by W.

They resided alternateiy at their plantations, and were at Eng’s residence when they breathed their last. * * * * Chicago has Another Fire. Go, Jan.. 21.—Between three o’elock this morning, a fire broke out in Union Central depot building, oc- cupied by the Michigan Burlington and Quincy Railroads, at the foot of Lake street, and in a short time made such progress as to defy the fire department. The building was entirely consumed.— The Chicago, Burlington and Quincy bag- gage was nearly all lost, only a few pie- ces being saved. ‘Tne baggage in the other room at the south end depot was saved, the fire being put out before it reached that far.

The Senate Committee on Privileges and Elections have considered Senator Morton’s proposed constitational amend- ment to provide a better mode of electing the President. Without reaching conclu- sions the following propositions were con~ sidered: First. To abolish the Electoral Cols lege. Second. The President and Vice~ President to be voted for directly by the people. Third. Each State to be divided into as many districts as it has Representa» tives, and the candidate having the high- est vote for President in the cistrict to receive the vote of that district, which shall count the Presidential vote ; each State to be algo entitled to two Presiden- tial votes at large, which shall be counted for the candidate having the highest num- ber of votes in the whole State. Fourth. The person having the high- est number of such Preside:tial votes in the United States shall be President.— This will allow a President to be elected by a plurality vote. Fifth. ‘The provisions to be applicable to the election of Vice-President, Sixth. Congress shall have power to provide for holding and conducting Presi- dential elections, and to establish tribunals for the decizion of contested elections in districts or States, and to make regulations to govern these tribunals. Gen. Gordon Makes an Expan- sion Speech. On Tuesday Gen. Gordon, of Georgia made a strong speech in the Senate in fa. vor of expanding the currency. Unlike Judge Merrimon, who spoke on the same side the following day, Gordon argued that a present return to gpecie payment was not expedient and that it would not promote the interests of the producing classes. Specie payments, he elaimed, had never prevented disaster, but had alx ways preceded panics. Neither had it ever been resorted to restore the country after financial disaster. But like the North Carolina Senator he believed ex» pansion the surest road to specie pay~ ment. Gen. Gordon contended with rhetorical and practical force that ‘government could not pay gold till it got the gold, and it could not get the gold till it in- creased its exports; the exports could not be increased until the production was in- creased, and greater production required more money. ‘I'here was a difference between an inflation of the currency and a sufficiency.’ — Star. —_>-___ The N.

In a letter published in the Hvangelic Magazine, Mr. John Bright says : “As to what is best for the pulpit (reading a sermon or delivering one ex~ term poraneously ) I may not venture to say much. Ina pulpit a man is expected to speak for a given time on a great theme and with less of exact material than is obtainable on other occasions and on or- dinary subjects. And further, the majori- ty of preachers are not good speakers, and perhaps could not be made such.— They have no natural gift for good speak- ing; they are not logicai in mind nor full of ideas nor free of speech ; and they have none of that natnral readiness which is -essential to a powerful and interesting epeaker. It is possible—nay, perhaps very probable—that if reading sermons was abolished, while some sermons would be better than they now are, the majority of them would be simply chaos, and utter~ ly unindarable to the most patient con» gregation. Give a man with knowledge on his subject, and a gift for public speak- ing, then I think reading a mischief; but give a man who knows little, and who has no gift of speakiug, then reading seems to be inevitable, becanse speaking, as I deem it, is impossible. But it must be a terrible thing to have to read or speak a sermon on every weck on the same topic to the same people—terrible to the speak- er and hardly less to the hearers. Only men of great mind, great knowledge, and great power can do this with success. I wonder that any man can do it. I often doubt that any man has ever doneit. I forbear, therefore, from giving a strong opinion on the point you submit to me.— Where a man can epeak let him speak— it is no doubt most effective—but where a man cannot speak he must read. Is not this the sum of the whole matter.” —- A Convict’s Speech. Brown, the convict who stole some boots from the Albany Penitentiary immediately after liberation from that institutior, at the end of a five year’s term, was brought up for sentence before Judge Ingalls Saturday inorning. On being he had anything to say why sentence should nut be passed on hin, he got up aud inade a very excellent speech. He spoke as follows: “IT reside in Baltimore; I was sent to the Albany Penitentiary in 1869 ; I have worked for the prison faithfully forfour years ; there is not a single black mark against me_ for anything. I got discharged afew days since without a shilling in my pocket to bay food or take me home. I tried tu cbtain work as a barber; could not cbtain any. The sinell of the penitentiary was ou me; no man dared to employ me: I refused to solicit alins : I refused to break into a store or dwelling to ob- tain the inean of supporting life. As] worked fur years fur the penitentiary, I thought the prisou honestly owed me enough to get food and reach home. I stole the boots from the prison simply to save me from coinmitting a erine against others.” The Court was so touched by the modest appeal made by the prisoner that it very properly reduced the proposed sentence froin five years to one year, — _ o> Communtrsm 1x New Yorx.—WNevo York, January 23.—The Tribune says meetings are held nightly in the smaller halls on the east side ofathe city, and in- ternationaliats the discontented workmen listen to speeches which are often violent. One of the leaders at a meeting held in avenue a few evenings ago said they could count on fifteen thousand well-drilled men, and that many of these were attached to the German regiments in the national guard. It is known that au order was isaned to the police force a short time ago to keep close watch over the churches and other public buildings. It is ‘asserted that at some of the east side halls compan~ ies of internationalist are drilled nightly by competent officers, and that the leaders assert that unless the right of the working people is reapceted they will use their arms. MILWAUKEE, Jan., 17th—Bob Tur ner of Potosi, Grant county, has been ar- reated for the murder of his brother Albert. The inquest, which has just been cluded, revealed a blood-thirsty con- -~ asked by the Judge if sity on the part of Bob, rivaling that of the Bender family of murderers. Albert was killed with an axe, his head being nearly severed from his body, as, hé was coming out of a mineral bole: in whieh he had been at work. He fell back speech-~ less and never moved. The marderor then called another brother, who was in an adjoining shaft, and this brother, fiatn- ed Newton, began to climb- out. When he reached the surface he saw the body of his brother Albert and was about to ran, when Bob seized him and, showing the bloody axe, threatened to kill him iutantly unless he would swear to assist in putting the body away and preseve silence. ‘This Newton assented to, but on the first opportunity he escaped to Potosi, where he gave the alarm, and the murderer fled to Lancaster. He was pursued, arrested and lodged in prison, where he soon attempted the life of his keeper. THE 8ECOND MURDER, which has just come to light, is that of Olney Neeley, a youthof Ellenboro. Bob Turner was there cutting whoop poles, for Mr. Bell. On Dec. 23 the boy started from Bell’s to visit hia mother in New California. His road lay through timber belonging to Mr. Bailey, where Turner was at work. That was the last seen of young Neeley until Jan. 9: The people residing in the neighborhood having heard of Turner's murderéus propensity, and knowing that young Neeley had to pass near where he was at work, turned out on Friday last to haunt for his remains. Eight men started from Bell’s and search- ed the ground on each side of the road. When they arrived upon the premises where ‘l'urner had heen chopping, they found the body, which lay as it had fallen two weeks before. ‘The position which the body lay indicated the course the blow had taken. ‘The boy’s head was nearly cut from the body, only hanging by a small piece of skin on the back and front of the neck, the axe having gone through the neck. ‘The dreadful catalogue is lengthened by other mysterious murders have taken place in the localities in which Turner had been seen. Marshall Bennet visited the prisoner and asked him to confess if he had any hand in them. He finally confessed that he remembered killing two men—a stranger whom he had encounters ed in a deep ravine at the back of the poor farm and murdered, hiding the body ; the other manu he met on the road to Mus- cada, where he was going to get work. He said that the latter madc threatening- gestures, and he feared that he was going to take his life, so he closed him, and with a four pound weight which he carried in hia pocket struck him over the eyes, emashing in his skull and killing him ins stantly. He dragged the body into the brush, seereting it there. Now that he has confessed he delights to talk of the many persons he has killed. He gloats over the skill which he has concealed their bodies, and declares that if they were got together there would be nearly forty of them. ~<a ——_ Keeping Poultry to Enrich Land. Col. Waring, in his “Elements of Ag- riculture,” says: Poultry dung is nearly equal in value to Peruvian guano, except that it contains more water. If granted that a hen will consume of the different kinds of grain, meat, and vegetables, dur- ing the year, the equivalent of two bush- els of corn which weigh 120 pounds, then it is certainly low enoughito place the ex- crement—the result of the digestion of these two bushels—as equivalent to fifteen pounds of guano. As the manure from 100 fowls, during a year, would amount to 1,500 pounds of guano, taking the above supposition as at least safe; and as 300 pounds is ordinarily sufficient for an acre of corn, it will be seen that the ma- nure from 100 fowls will make compost enough for five acres. ‘The experiment has been tried by the writer, of applying to one acre of corn in the hill, the manure of 20 hens one year, mixed with ewamp mack, in the proportion of oue part hen manure and three parta muck, and the re- sult was a better crop than upon an ads joining acre enriched, for sake of experi- ment, with a fair ordinary dressing of sta- ble manure. ~~" A Treasure of a Wife.

Among the well-determined facts of Astronomical science, none are more start- ling than those which concern the fixed stars. “These bodies, like our sun, are “laminous and are in all probability centres of planetary ,systems ; bat they are situated at such enormous distances from the earth that only in a few cases, gad by the most refined observations, ave astrovomers been able to detect au change in their apparent positions due © the motion: of the earth. Nevertheless, it is by: the measmement of such chauges that the distances of some of the fixed stare have been determined. . The stern having the greatest apparent motion are inferred to be the nearest to us ; and thir has determined the sclegtion of certain stars in perference to others, in the efforts which have been made to ascertain their distances. According to this rule, the star x Centauri, whose distance was de- termined by Professor Henderson, may be regurded as nearest to the earth ; and and yet that distance is foand to be more than two hundred thousand times that of the sun, or in round numbers about twen- ty trillions of miles. The human mind can, of course, forra no conception of auch a distance as thie ; but perhaps we may approach a iittle nearer to realization of its magnitude when we reflect that, since light travels at the rate of one hundred and ninety-two thous- and miles a second, it would require three years and a quarter for the light of the nearest fixed star to come to the earth. This is the limit for the brightest and nearest stars; but what distances must we allow for those innumerable stars of the smaller magnitudes, which are barely disclosed by the most powerful telescopes in the remote regions of the Milky Way ? Among the infinite number of such stars it is but reasonable to conclude that there are many invisible whicli are intrinsically as bright as those which immediately sur- round us. Assuming this to be true, itis easy to prove that some of the telescopic stars are situated at such distances from us that their light requira over two thous - and years to accomplish its journey to our own system. From this it follows that when we-note the appearance of such stars we are actually reading tlicir history more than two thousand years ago. An eye situated at such a star, and gifted with sufficient power to discern changes on the earth, would see the surface of our planet as it was before the beginning of the Christain era.--Startling as these con~ clusions appears, they are not to be avoid- ed without attributing an inferiority of intrinsic illumiation to all the stars of the Milky Way—an alternative much less in harmony with estronomical facts connect- ed with our siderial systems. The intrinsic splendor of the star z Cen. tauri has been found to be morethan twice that of our sun; but how can we imagine the splendor of Sirius, which shines with more than one hundred and forty times the sun’s intrinsic brilliancy 7 ——_———_— A WonDERFUL Cave IN W.N. C.— In the range of mountains in Western Carolina, known as the “Fork Range,” a most singalar phenomenon exists. It is a breathing cave. Inthe Summer monthe a current of air comes from it so strongly that a person cin’t walk against it, while in the winter the suction ia just as great. The cool air from the mountain in the Summer is felt for miles, in a direct line from the mouth of the cave. At times a most unpleasant odor is emitted upon the current from dead carcasses of animals sucked in and killed by the violence. ‘The loss of cattle and stock in that secs tion in winter is accounted forin this way; they range too near the mouth of the cave, and the current carrics them in. At times. when the change from inhaling to exhal- ing begins, the air is filled with various hairs of animals, not unfrequently bones and whole carcasses are seen miles from the place. The air has been known to change materially in temperature during exhalation, from quite cool to unpleasant- ly hot, withering vegetation within reach, and accompanied by a terrible, roaring, curgling sound, a pot boiling. It is wn- accounted by scientific men who bave ex. amined it, though no exploration can take place. It is feared by many that a vols canie ernption may break forth there some time. .Suach things have oceurred in places as little unexpected. We hope our friends in the neighborhood will keep us thoroughly posted as to the movements of the strange mountain. Bors tn Horses.—In the Popular Science Monthly there is a short article relative to the power of endurance manifested by the larvee of some insects, and among them of the bet fly, It mentions a case where a piece of the stomach uf a dead horse, which Was covered with bot worins. was spread on a board, and spirits of turpentine was pourd on the worms; yet after an hour not one was datached from the flesh. Then whale oil was pourd om them, when they ell let go their hold, and died almost iimmediately.

Thurman and Allen. The re-election of Senator Th t of Qhio, is an event which will be hailed... with delight by the whole Democratic — party of the nation. Senator Thurman is regarded as the best lawyer and ablest debater in the United States Senate. He is a politician of singularly pure and blameless life, and a statesman of comprehensive views and enlarged patriotism. It is generally known to our readers |” that Judge Thurman is a nephew of Gov. Allen, of Ohio, and that the latter gentle- man was born near Edenton, North Care- lina. It is trae that some of our Virginia cotemporaries, with that State pride so characteristic of them. and which wonld appropriate every good thing to whieh they are entitled for their own Common- wealth, claim that Gov. Allen was bora in Virginia, and lived at Lynchburg, in that State. This is commendable on the part of our sister State, and if North Caro- lina had always exhibited the same spirit, our State would have been more faverably known, both at home and abroad. While in Washington city a few days since, we heard it from Senator Thurman’s own lips that Gov. Allen was born near Edeuton, in this State. He resided for some years, however, at Lyachburg.~ Senator Thurman’s mother, who is Gev, Allen’s sister, was also born in North Carolina, as he informed us. 8o that North Caroliua has an indisputable right to claim Gov. Allen as her native sea, and to claim Senator ‘I‘hurman as a lineal descendant. BABLON’S HANGING GARDENS Our pretty hanging baekete, with thice suspension wires completely draped ia delicate climbing ivies and standing moss ses, with their dropping grasses, with their masses of beautiful trailing plants their drooping grasses, viueas, mimo- sas, musk-scented and covered with brilliant golden flowers, liliputian in stze, are literally hanging gardens. Bat evea should they be made a million times | their plan is so utterly diff-rent that could never suggest the faintest notion the hanging gardens of Babylon, about the very name of which there is @ rin of poetic grandeur and a flavor of orien magnificence. ‘They were literally para- dises, for though our word is from the Greck paradisos, the Grecke borrowed it from Persia, where to this day the riek satraps rejoiee in thcir prradises or pleas ure gardens. Xcnophon mentions those of Belesia, governor of Syria; and such ashe bcheld them, apparently, we find them described by Chardin and other modern travelers. The hanging gardens of Babylon were simply a very costly variety of the paradise, such only ag princely wealth could afford. Their ori- gin is attributed to Semiramis by some; others say that they were invented by & king of Syria to charm the melancholy of one of his wives of Persian origin, whe sighed to behold again the verdant moume tains of ber native land. Strebo and Diodorous Sicular have written about these famous hanging gardens, Philo of Byzantium—if, indeed, he ie the anther of the treatise on the seven wonders of the world, by some attribated to bim— and many others. They were called hanging gardeas doubtless because of the hage branebing palms and other trecs, overhanging the balustrade on the summit of the high walls that enclosed the paradise.

Since Noah fell, man has been diaposed to linger at the wine cup. This dispo- sition being innate, it can not be eradicated by force, or by legislative action. As well attempt to prevent the formation of ice by legislation as to attempt to prevent men drinking spiritu- ous liquors so long as distillation is allowed.— Prohibition laws have done nothing for (hose States in which they have existed in force.— {. For every public bar-room they have closed ten private ones have been opened. The man who went round the corner and got his drink at the public bar three times aday, now keeps his jug in his office or private house and his pota- tions are increased ten-fold, to say nothing of the demoralizing effect of drinking beiore his family.

However pleasant Mr. Stewart of the Salis- bury Watehman may be in his social relations, he is certainly very ill natured whenever he comes to speak of Charlotte or Charlotte news- papers.— Charlotte Observer. Now, this is the most unkindest cut of all. The local of the Charlotte Observer should not so misrepresent us, ealling us out by name at that. We can not re- menber a single instance when we spoke of Charlotte or ber newspapers in an “ill na- tured” manner. We entertain no feelings but those of kindness for Charlotte or her people. We have been provoked to smile at, and to criticise in the spirit of badinage, somethings that have appeared in her pa- pers, seemingly trying to make the world believe tbat Charlotte is the centre of the aniverse; but we have said nothing in ‘ malice. We are g!ad that the citizens of Charlotte think well of their town. It is a good sign, aud it is necessary to the prosperity of the place. Itis most cer- tain to grow and prosper so long as the citizens are contented, proud, and sensi-~ tive. The present citizens of Charlotte have displayed all these excellent quali- ties and have done much for the place, dition to protect itself.

The above note is in reply to some re~ marks of the Watchman relative a scheme proposed by some parties in Wilmington to raise money for the Orpnan’ Asylum. It seems, however, that the gamblers of Wilmington, as Mr. Mills, suggests, had only their own interest in'viow, and that no money objained in the way propos- ed then has accepted by the Orphan Asylum, and it ever been tendered or would rot be accepted if tendered. This is as it should be. The Institution should be well sustained, and it must be by the charitable contributions of the people which are earnestly solicited. ~<—>- Larviyg Our “Mropiz Mey,”—A member bf* the ‘Mallard Creck Grarige, who was ‘In Clarlotte Yesterday," nade ut an, order on tlie part ‘of ‘his own and. othét Grangea, for 25 wagons from Chicago buy these wagons cheaper than auy one else can.—Charlotte Observer.

The local of the Observer closes his flimsy defense of himself with some course irony aimed at “the associate editor of the Carolina Watchman,” which means, if it mean avy thing, that an editor who has independent ideas of his own and the nerve to assert them, regardless of the party lash or the mandates of so-called leaders, is disposed to dictate ; but ye local, was never more mistaken. The associate does not attempt to direet the actions of, or to enforce hia opinions upon, any one. expresses his candid convictions upon all matters he discuases freely and fearlessly. He concedes to others the game rights he claims for himself. Sarely this is not culpable, think you, Mr: Observer P document and accompanies a bill designed to carry out the principles laid down in the report. The argument is twé-fold aud is directed to the constitutional ques. tion first and that of expedieney ‘next. The report examines the right of CGor- gress to make regulations eoucerning commerce among the States, ‘railroad tranportation being considered “ com- merce’’ in the s¢nse in which that term is used in the Constitation. The conclusion is that a railroad may be controlled by a State, and that Congress may make any regulation concerning commerce among the States which any State may make] concerning that which is completely in: ternal. ‘he qtcstion of expediency re- quires less elaborate argument. ting certain well-known statements conceruing the exorbitant rates charged for transpor- ting staple products, the report asserts that Congress has the power to regulate freighit Frates, and that any attempt at regalation which stops short of prohibition of excess- ive charges would be effectuat.

The President, with his third nomina- tion for the cthee, has carried his Chief Justice through the Senate with flying colors in the coufirmation of Morrision R. Waite of Ohio. Had the nomination for4 this, ‘ihe highest jndieial office in the government,’ been left to a republican or a democratic caneus of the Senate Mr. Waiie would not have been chosen. ‘There has been nothing in his record as a parti- san, nor in his comparatively quiet profes- sioaal career calculated to attract the at- tention of the lawyers or politicians on cither side of the Senate. ‘They would have preferred, and doubtless expected, after the failure of Cushing, a Chief Juss tice from their oyn ranks, and if the name had been sent in of Coukling, Edmunds, Morten or Frellinghuysen there would have been a confirmution without a re- ference. Judge Waite was chosen by the Preai- deut, as Williams was and as Chushing was, withont secking in “adviee’ of the Senate, In other words, General Grant, in this unoppossed confirmation of his third nominee for Chicf Justice, is still recogized by the Senate as muster of ‘the political field. The new > Chief Jas- tice may not possess the couspicuous par- ty recommendations of Attorney General Williams, nor the comprehensive legal attainments and experience of Mr. Oush~ ing; but it seems to be understeod that as a politician he is sound upon the record of the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth amendments of the constitution ; that as a lawyer his qualifications, from his eduea- tion and his successful practice of many yeara, are satisfactory, while, in view of bis character as a ‘citizen, he is emi- nently acceptable to all parties. If we have in Judge Waite a Chief Justice who comparative unknown, he is still known sufficienty to justify the general impres- sion that he will meet his high responsi- bilities to the satisfaction of the cvuntry.

ONE among the oldest institutions in Wes- tern North Carolina, dating back to July, 1832, the Watchman has survived all the adversities, trials, strifes, and changes of more than forty years; and by the grace of the Supreme Disposer of all events, enters upon the year 1874, with unfeigned gratitnde to its friend and patrons, to whorn its proprie- tor extends the most cordial congratulations. The Watchwan sprang into existence iu the days of Suuth Carolina nullification, aud |entered the political a'ena as a champion for the Union, which. at that time, was believed to be iu great peril. It was conservative then, and that has been its political charae- throughout its history. When Abraham Lincoln, in L861, called for Southero troops to suppress by force the Southern Confed- |erey inoyement, the voice of conservatism was drowned by the roll of the drum and the ‘din of war; and all men, whacever their Op- jnion of the movement, were compelled to take position for or against it. The Watch- man naturally took sides ia the fray with the people of its State aud section, who simul- taneously sprang to arms in resistance to Federal coercion. Whatever of suffering, loss, and sorrow eusued therefrom, the Watchman has cheerfully borne its part of it, Borregrets, even at this day, the chuice of that hour. But it has passed. The storm which bad been gathering for years before, and against which it had vainly struggled, in the fulness of time come, desolating most where boastful pride was most defiant. It has passed, and we haye Icng since turned to consider the opening future, and joined hands with the people in restoring the losses sus- tained by it, and reinstating the good order which was so thoroughly disturbed in the daysof earnage The Watchman has zealous- Jy labored for the restoration and preserva- ition of every time-proven good thing, aud against the ferocious spirit of radicalism ‘which menaced the most sacred principles of Government which have distinguished us as a people among the nations of the earth. It is conservative still, and will continue to la- bor for the cause of law and order, and for the highest good of the peeple. The Watchman has iutimately been identified with the varied interests and fortunes of the poeple of Western North Carolina for more than a generation, It has never failed to take an active part in whatever concerned thei, whether, in politics internal improvements, public sehool, or social, or moral reforins. Its files are a history of this portion of the State far-the tiwne-of its own existence.

In other words, they do the work of two medicines and do it much better than any two we know of, for they remove nothing from the system but im- purities, so that while they purge ‘trey also strenethen and hence they canse no debility and are followed by no reaction. . Dr. Tutt’s Pills have a wonlerfal influence on the blood. ‘hey not only purify without weakening it, bul they remove ail noxious par- ticles from the chyle before it is converted into nid, and thas makes inbilitation, 80 there isno nansea or sickness aticuding the operation 0. thismostexcellent me-licine, which never strains or tortures the digestive organs, but causes them to work ina perfectly natural manner ; hence persons taking them do notbecome pale and emaciated, but.on . the contrary,. while all impurities are being removed, the combined ac- tionof the Satsaprilfia and Wild Cherry pnri- fies and invigorates the body, and action.

Karamazoo, Michigan, Jan, 20.— Last Friday evening the wife of Mr. J. B. Crum, living at 58 Persons street, gave birth to a pair of bwine—a boy and a girl. The surprise of the parents can be imagin- [ ed when, on surveying the party, the nurse held up the tiny pair of infants iu the palm of oue of her bands. They were soon after weighed, and the aggregate avoirdupois of the twius was three pounds and four ounces, one of the pair weigh‘ ing one pound and eight ounces, and the other weighing one pound and twelve ounces. They were less than eight inches long, and perfectly formed. A bed was made for them, which consistod of a min~ ute basket filled with cotton. batting, and clothing had to be improvised for the, strangers that which ir expectancy had | been made up proving a world too wide for their little limbs. Some doubt has been expressed by the physician who attended the mother as to whether they would live, but up to this morning they are not only alive, but arg lively, bright and wide awake, and claim a place in this big spbere as well as their own immediate brothers and sisters, of which there are several in the family, grown up, There have been since Monday a great many visitors to see the little children, and the exclamations of surprise and the ejaculations of admiration would fill a large volume. Ladies and gentlemen, old and young, flock to the house where the children lay. Pink and blue ribbons have been tied about the little arms of the babes, so as to answer the question of which is boy and which is girl. The sensation is likely to last some time, though every precaution is taken to preserve the lives of the little ones. They nurse and seem to enjoy themselves as well as could be | expected. hey are perfectly formed, and, we understand, are full-time chil wen. Wrapped in their little beds they look like dolls suddenly vivified; their cries are | like those of very young kittens.

In olden times they would have been regarded as_ prophetesses, but in thege matter-of-fact dys they are only empty dreawers. Some time since a watch was stolen, and a woman bad a dream which led directly to the recovery of the watch and the arrest of the thief. This was thought to be a remarkable accidens. More lately a woman dreamed that a stranger came to her house, and asked for a night’s lodging. It was given hit, but betore retiriug he slipped his shoes outside the door. Inthe morning the stranger was gove, aud also a considerable sum of mouey. The woman wakened her huss baud, told her dream, and she was laugh- ed at, as usual, She dreamed it thrice the same night. Some weeks after this ber husband had been to town and | brought out to his home a good sum of money. In the evening a stranger ap- | plicd for a night’s lodging, and was given a good supper and put to bed in one of the upper rooms. Betore the lady retir- ed—with the dream in her mind—she opened the door, aud outside she found a pair of shoes in the precise position of tbe | shoes in her dream, She then recalled all the vivid particulars of her vision.— The man was all over the thief of ber dream. She showed her husband the 1 Grand Gash Giltss.2 2 see) ee eee $50,000 | shoes, and again reminded him of what 1 om ...---25,000' she had told bim that night when he 1 ere ee 12,000 Janghed at her so.

Jethro Tall states that the difficulty was common in England, till some wheat taken from a sunken vessel wassown. This produced wheat free from smut, and from that time forward the practice of soaking seed- wheat in ocean brine, or water made arti ficially salt, became general. Land that contains salt is not liable to produce smut- ty wheat. Applying lime and salt direct~ ly to the soil seems to Operate to prevent rust, but it is better to treat the grain than the soil. Sulphate of copper, commonly known as blue vitriol or bluestone, is,a0ow generally used, instead of salt, to prevent smut. An ounce and a quarter of this salt, dissolved in’ as much water as will cover the wheat, is regarded by many persons asa sufficient quantity for a bush- el. The wheat may remain in it an hour. For convenience in sowing, many after- wards sprinkle the grain with dry lime.

She refused to listen to their entreaties, however, and again she disappeared from view, and nothing more was heard of her until last weck, when a Chicago. policeman rescued her from a drunken brawl, in which she was an active participant. Upon learning who she was the girl’s parents were prompt- ly notified, and she will now be released from custody on condition of returning to her tamily, who are willing and ready to receive her, ———— The American Deser_—Wild Men and Wild Horses in Western Kansas. [Sargent (Kansas) Letter to the Topeka Commonwealth. ]— Large numbers of wild horses abound on the prairies between the Arkansas and Smoky Hill rivers. They are of all sizes and colors, and are the wildest of all wild animals. They usually roam in bands from six to twenty, and A great mauy domestic horses, as well as their owners, have taken up with the wild ones. After running with them they be- come as wild as their untamed compans ions. Various methods have been adopt ed to catch these aboriginal horses, but they have generally proved fruitless. A scrubby colt or a bhoken-down mule are, as a geueral thing, the only reward for all the time, labor, and expense in such Visionary schemes. Settlers on the fron- tier would hail their speedy extinction as a blessing, for when domestic animals get with them their recovery is simply out of the question. . Ever eince the first emigrant turned his footatepe towards the Pacifie this country has been infested with a thoroughly or- ganized gang of highwaymen and “horse thieves, aud few have reached their des- tination without losing atock. They hov- er around emigrant trains like vultures over a carcass, waiting for a favorable op- portunity to pounce upon their uususpect. ing prey. I know of ove outfit, the “Chicago Minning Company,” that left this place in the spring for Silver City, that had nearly all their stock, some seventy-five head, stolen before they got half way to their destination. The expe- dition had to be abandoned, and most of the parties returned sadder but wiser men. Seldom or never is a horse thief arress ted; and if by some hocus~pocus one is gobbled, it is simply impossible to convict him, as he always has a host of “friends” ready and anxious to prove his innocence. Bat their day has come. ‘The country is being settled by a class of people that will protect themselves against these outlaws, and compel. them to seek other climes to carry on their nefarious work. oo Facts About THE BritTIsH PaRtrta- MEXT.—The British Parliament which has been dissolved by Queen Victoria at the instance of her premier was the eighth of her reign, and met on the 10th ot De- cember, 1868. 1i would not have attain~ ed the constitutional limit of seven years un.il 1875, but since 1826 only one Par- liament recorded in English history was that elected in 1661, which existed near- ly seventeen years, and the shortest that elected in 1860, which lasted only five months and twenty-six days. ‘I'he House of Commons now consists of 658 members, of whom 493 are frem England and Wales, 60 from Scotland, 150 from Ireland. The number of electors on the register in June, 1872, was 2,574,939, namely, 2,094,781 in Fngland and Wales, 266,751 in Scot- land, and 224,507 in Irelend. Since 1872, all elections for members of Parliament must be by ballot.

Men can no longer go at one leap into eminent position. The world, as Emerson says, is no longer clay, bat rather iron in the hands of its workerr, and men have got to hammer ott a place for. themselves by steady and rugged blows. Above all,a deep and barning enthusiasm is wanted in every one who would achieve great ends. No great thing it or can be done without it. It is aquali- ty that is seen wherever there are earnest and detetmined workers—in the silence of the study, and amid the roar of can- nons; in the painting of a picture, and in the carving of a statute. Ability, learns ing, accomplishment, opportunity, all are well; but they do not, of themselves, in- sure success. ‘I‘housdnds have all these, and live and die without benefiting 'hem- selves or others. Men, on the other hand of mediocre talents, often scale the dizzy steps of excellence and fame becaise they have firm faith and high resolre. It is this solid faith in one’s mission —the rooted belief that it is the one thing to which he has been called—this enthusiasm attracting an Agassiz to the Alps or Amazon, impelling a Pliny toexplore the voleano in which he is to lose his life and fierving a Vernet, when tossing in a fierce tempest, to sketch the waste of waters, and even the wave that is leaping to de; vour him,—that marks the heroic spirit - and wherever it is found, euccess, sooner or later, is almost inevitable. —— 7p Cune For Ear AcHE.—There is hard ly «1 ache to which children are subject so Lid to bear and difficult to cure as the earache.

According to Sir Samuel W. Baker, the same phenomena occurred at Mauritius, where the martins, which exist in immense numbers the year round, wholly disappeared during the pre- valence of cholera. ——— —- +> CanceR.—The attention of the medical world abroad has been aroused by the new treatment of cancer, introduced in London by a Hungatian physician named Grob. He contends that cancer is not a local but a general disease ;_ that it arises from the presence of a poison in the sys~ tem; and that the knife will never cure the disease, but only postpone its fatal effect. His remedy consists in setting up another discase—fever—uuder the influ» ence of which, the blood-poison, which causes the cancer, is thrown off. It is said that he has made rome marvellous cures. Where an individual is unable to sup- port himsclt and Lis family, on the profits of his business, and is forced to resort to his capital for a living, that jndividual is considered to be is a bad fix.

W. M, ROBBINS A few days ago Hon. W. M. Robbins made in Congress the ‘most sensible and ablest speech, we think, yet made on the Pending Civil Rights Bill. Mr. Bobbins is certainly the peer of any member from N. C. in either House, if he, ia not really of any State. We regret our inability to give the speech entire this week. We give, however, a few oxtracts, 4s selected by the Charlotte Observer, which will fernish our readers an idea of its character. We shall try and give the whole before a great while, oe A telegram, dated St. Louis, Febuary 2nd, gives an accoant of the robbing of a ger train by five masked men at Gad’s Hill station on the Iron ‘Mountain Rail Road in Missouri. ‘The robbers went to the depot before the arrival of the train, arrested the agent, and switched the train off on a side track, when they pro~ eeeded to arrest the conductor, engineer, aod other train men, and to rob the pass sengers. Five men do all this? It is al- most incredible. Did they have accom- plisea on the train? Or were the train men and passengers so teiror-stricken as to be unable to resiat fivemen, Witboutarms, it seems to us, they might have prevented this robbery. aa The people of the Western part of the State secm to be very anxious that the éonsolidation bill now pending before the Legislature be passed; and they think very properly that the bill has been in- eumbered with unwise and damaging restrictions. It is really laughable to see Legislators waking up at this late date to the importance of protectiag the State’s ‘interests in her publicimprovements. Some- thing might haye been done two, three, or four years ago, but it is too late now. It is like locking the stable door after the borse is gone. Consolidation will not make matters worse ; and it may be the means of securing the completion of the W.N.C. Railroad ; and this much Wess tern N.

Kerr, for expenses incurred in preparing and transporting articles for exhibition at Vienna, will justly be regard- ed by the people as coming with very bad grace from members of a body that has been in session nearly sixty days at. an expense to the public of nearly eighty thousand dollars withoug doing any thing to benefit that public materially. When the matter is cousidered in all its bearings, the plea set up to justify the refusal of the Legislature to pay the small sum aeked for, ia ridiculous in the extreme. The gentlemen who advanced the mon- ey to defray the expenses of Prof. Kerr, should be paid ; and, indeed, Prof. ierr deserves extra remuneration for the excel- lent service herendered the State on the oc- casion of the Vienna Exhibition. Let the Legislature make the asked for appropria- tion, even if the length of the Session has to be eurtailed. The people will hail with delight an adjournment. ee The Legislature has elected sixty four Trustees for the defunct university of N. C. We are unable to understand the use of electing trustees unless the Legislature intends making an appropriation to revive the institution and start it going again. But we hope that body will make no ap- propriation now, Money is too tight, and taxes are already burdensome. There is no immediate or prospective necessity for the ,university. We have colleges enough in the State to meet the require- ments of our people, and they will not quietly submit to new burdens merely to gratify the whims of a few dreamers who imagine that the university can be restor- ed to its former glory. The Legislature will have enough to do to educate the poor, without reviving and rebuilding col- lege for the benefit of the rich. ‘The latter can take care of thomeclvos, tho former, need all the Public charities the State has to dispose of.

There are other Southern States which are more or less unfortunate, but perhaps Lonisianva is the most to be pittied. Sena- tor Carpenter warns the Republican party that it cannot mareh under this heavy load much longer. For this he will prob- ably be accused of infidelity to his party— for we have apparently arrived at that very dangerous point at which any honest and independent criticism is regarded as an act of treachery. ‘There are foolish mem- bers of Congress, even in our own Btate, who think that it is the duty ofa public or a public journal to register the decrees of a clique, and if a word of protest is ut~ tered, they threaten to ostracize the man or abolish the journal. Weshould like to see there idiots begin their work—at pres- ent, everybody of any sense ean see that the Republican party must deal with the great questions of the day in a frank and liberal spirit, or be destroyed.

On Saturday the 24th of January, Mr. Robbins delivered a most excellent speech in the House of Representarives upon the Civil Rights Bill, a cull report of which appears in the Congressional Record of the 23th inst. The length of the speech forbids its re-publication in our columus. So, we shall content ourselves with brief extracts therefram, tagether with an ab- stract of its most important parts. In the opening of his remarks he re- minds the Northern Representatives of the importance of the Southern States to the power and prosperity of the Union. “So important were those States in area, cli- mate, soil aud resources that a dozen years ago you declared that their continuance in the Union was necessary to the ‘nation’s life,’ as you phrased it. If that were 80, are not their peace and prosperity in the Union essential to the nation’s healthy life? If by an unwise policy you keep that half of the body politic morbid and disordered, will not the nation—like my late constituents and supporters, the Sia- mese T'wins, afler one was paralyzed— drag eut but a diseased, enfecbled and miserable existence ?” He opposes the Civil Rights Bill main- ly on the ground of its “ruinous inexpe- diency.” In alluding to Jefferson’s celebrated sentence, ‘“‘all men are born free and equ- al,” Mr. Robbins delivered the following vigorous sentences; Not equality, but infinite inequality and variety, is the law of this universe. It has been said that “Shakespeare never o eS . Fo = pest a3 a wo ET A ~~ repeats.’ * Sach was the compass of b his genius, that every effart of* his pinto volved a new idea. Does God then re~ peat 1—No sir. “Each thought emanated from the All-perfect mind is a new thought, and each act a newcreation. He made the oak to battle with storme, and the daisy to shelter underneath ; the eagle to soar above the clouds, and the mocking bird to sing in the thicket. All nature is full of contrasts and unlikenesses. And not only does this variety pertain to the nataral world, but in that higher realm to which faith points us, “one star differs from another star in glory.” So that from the grains of sand and the rocks, upward through the living, the animate, the intel- ligent, the spiritual, the angelic existen- ces, to the very throne of God, all being is one grand chain of progressive and successive links, whereof there are no two of them equal or alike. He thinks the eagle ought no longer to be the national emblem. The crow is the bird for the glorious Union now, because “his plumage is of the favorite eolor ; and because of his thievish propensities, and the like.” ‘This original sentiment brought down the house; there was much shaking of sides among the jolly Solons. He was quite happy in his remarks on the difference existing between the white man and the negro. He said: “In some things the negro excels the white man. He has much music in his soul. He can outsing, outdance, out- laugh, and outfrolic the white man. He is more docile, more self-satisfied, more imitative, more affectionate, more paraio- nate, and perhaps more naturally eloquent than the white man. He is the world’s “rmaerry-andrew.” He is the world’s star actor on the comic stage. Such are the endowments of the negro; and some of them are noble qualities, and by no means show that the negro may not fill a useful and important place in the world’s fature civilization. But when you come to the grand tragic and heroic parts in the drama of humanity, where will, force, courage, forethought, the sense of masterdom, and the instinct of dominion are required to shine, the negro fails. Despite all that we have heard on that subject, the negro is no fighter. ‘To prove that he is, we are pointed to the records of the recent war between the States. Yes; infuriated with whiskey, he was brought to the scratch a few times, only to be sacrificed without result. Here Mr Walls interrupted Mr Robbins with the question, ‘ Did you ever meet the negro on the battlefield ?”” To which our gallant representative replied, “Yes, some- times, and whipped him easily too.” It was my business for four years on the battlefield to meet all comers without re- gard to “race, color, or previous condition of servitude.” Mr. Robbins created considerable laughter in his sallies of wit against But~ ler, who gave a glowing account of how he with three thousand negroes whipped out a thousand of Lee’s veterans. Said the speaker: Now far be it from me to charge that gentleman with intentional or conscious exaggeration. I have always thought it was cruel and unjust in Prince Hal-to ac- -cuse Falstaff of lying when he recounted his fight with the supposed travelers on Gadshill. I have always believed that Sir John did really see eleven men in buckram, though it was dark, and only Hal and Poins were there. Allowance must be made, sir, for excitement of fancy in combatants rehearsing their own ex ploits and “fighting their battles o’er as gain.” Mr. Robbins is an advocate cf white mau rule. He said: “It is time to recur to the doctrine in which is bound up the salvation of this country—the doctrine that this is the white man’s land and ought to be a white man’s government. — I wish I had time to review the record of the great leaders of the Radical party in the first few years after the war, and show how indignantly they then spurned the idea of making the negro a suffragan and political power in this country. They bave long since gone beyond their scru- ples then. Party greed and ambition drove them on; and the same motive pushes them still on to this last and most ruinous of all the measurers. If any hap- py future remains for this country, it must soon be delivered from that party and its reckless policy. This sir, I repeat, is the white man’s land, and he is responsible for its welfare. The temple of liberty founded here, and toward which all the down-trodden nations turu their faces to pray for deliverance, is committed to hia charge. Let all the gentiles come, if they list—Chinese, Indian, Malay, African— and worship, and be amply and chival- rously protected while they worship, in its outer courte; but the consecrated priest who ministers at the altar should be only the white man.” In concludihg his able speeeh, he enunciated the novel idea that the South is not the permanent home of the nes gro. He is sojourning here as a school boy under a course of tuition. He will gradu- ate after awhile and leave school. He ia not increasing in numbers. By the cen sus reports, the African race in this coan- tty, during cvery decade before the last, increased on an agerage about 22 per cent. during the ten years from 1860 to 1870, half of which period the negroes were in their forwer state of servitude, they gained 9.7 per cent. only, much less than half the former rate. We may infer then that the 9.7 per cent. was gained before 1865, and that from then to 1870 (under freedom) they increased none, but ratber declined in numbers. The overshadowing white race is increasing rapidly io the land, In any event, then, the negro will in course of time be reduced to compara- tive insignificance. But for the present he is here in sufficient numbers, and makes up a sufficient fraction of the population in thirteen States, to be a tremendous hin- drance to the harmony and progress of the South, if this kind of legislation is to pres vail. Butio proportion as the negroes become educated and their pride and self- respect are developed, they will feel that they are ina land where, in spite of all laws and pretenses, they are looked upon as pariahs and inferiors, and they will pine for a country where they canbe the real, not merely the nominal, peers of all. Then will come the voluntary exodus, whether to Central America, or Cuba, or Bape Brice fs wa vilization and the gospel to" fils [fir whete the white maa ¢anno I will not venture to speeulat t the womb of the future “yet” bolds ‘these’ things.” Afric (more If the statisties of desertion from the United States army were published they would present a striking proof that our military system is a sham within a sham; that the rank and file‘mostly enlist to get food, shelter, and clothing till they can find other employment, or to get ca’ at the public expense toward some distant point they wish to reach. Our excessive peace army of 30,000 men is not an army. It is never better than an unassimilated mass, one-third of whichis strangers to the musket, and nearly the whole of which runs away and disappeass every four years. Asa nucleus for such an army as we pat in the field to suppress the rebel» lion it is little better than worthless. The men who enlist are mostly foreigners and refuges from idleness, be , or crimin- al justice. - The army ca hel poor house or hiding place. They ,enterit to-avoid starvation or arrest, The quality of the Confederate soldierg effectually disposes of the plea that it is necessary to keep the regular army as a nucleus. On the Union side was the entire rank and file of the old army. Of that force the rebels had only officers. The Confederate, rank and file was composed wholly of raw men, and, in the first two years of the vgr, volunteers. Yet what an infantry theyywere!, Those of us who saw them charge in line of but tle never approach s Contederate cemetery without taking off our hats in homage to the devoted braves ‘who ever walked straight into the jaws of death without blenching. The explanation of the extra- ordinary excellence of the rebel infantry is that it was made up of American citi- zens. ‘Che present army of the United States is not such It is largely compos- ed of unnaturalized foreigners, who enlist as a temporary refuge from material ills. Let it be reduced.—V. Y. Sun. — SO The Wife of a Bandit. The wife of one of the masked bandits in New York calied at the prison to see her husband the other day.. She kissed him through tbe bars, and, after wiping a tear from her eye, she handed him a box of cigars, a lajge paper of chewing tobac~ co, and a quantity of clothing. She wore four sparkling diamond rings, pair of su~ perb diamoni ear-rings, and an elegaut solid gold square-barred pin, which nestled in a white lace collar... She wore a black silk dress trimmed with real lace, over which was a fine blue velvet cloak, also trimmed with black lace. She was accom- panied by a young girl, a waiting-maid, whom she calied Mary Ann, and who car- ried a Russian leather reticule and a gen- uine camel’s iwir shawl belonging to her regal mistress. —- A Dirrerexce oF ‘l'aste.—Goethe called on Schiller one day, and not. fin- ding him at hou» svated himself at -his friend’s writing tible to note down vari- ous matters. Hewas soon seized with a strange indisposition, from which he near- ly fainted, but fincing it proceeded from a dreadful odor he traced it to a drawer, which he fouud fut of deeayed apples. He stepped oat of the room to inhale the fresh air, when he met the wife of Schils ler, who said her husband kept the draw- er always filled with rotten apples because the scent was so beneficial to him that he could not think or work without is. —~~ape—____—_ We learn from the Raleigh News that a meeting of the members of the Bar was held in the Supreme Court room Wednes- day evening, for the purpose of adopting suitable reeolutions of respect tothe mem- ory of the late Associate Justice Boyden whose death occurred since the adjourn- ment of the last session of the Court. On motion of J. H. Wilson, Eg., of Char-~ lotte, Chief Justice Pearson was called to the Chair, and Colonel R. F. Armfield of Statesville, requested to act at Secretary, — Kulogistic addresses were deliyered by Messrs. J. H. Wilson, of Charlotte, W. H. Bailey, of Salisbury, T. J. Wilson, of Winston and Judge Cloud. After which suitable resolutions were adopted by the meeting, and ordered to be spread upon the minutes of the Court, also upon the minutes of Rowan Scperior Court, and a copy ordered to be seut to the fam~ ily of the deceased. A pRruGGist SENT TO JatL FOR A Fa- TAL Mistake.—Dr. Livezy, of Yardley- ville, Bucks county, Pa., was arrested on Tuesday, on complaint ef the coroner of Mercer county N. J., founded on the verdict of the jury “that one James A. Grant, of that cornty, came to his death by taking cynaide of potassium, sold by said Dr. Livezy for iodide of potassium, which was ordered by the prescribing physician.” The doctor, who is a drug~ gist, was taken to the Doylestown jail, whence he will be bronght by requisition from the Governor of New Jersey and tried in Trenton. ~~ A Goop Custom.—'There is a pleas- aut custom in the Presbyterian Church of New Orleans, which exéwplifies tne com- munion of saints. ‘On the’ first Sabbath of the year all the Presbyterian churches of the city unite in the celebration of the Lord’s Supper. The sacrament is-admin- istered in the Firat ehureh, and the body of the church is filled on such occasions with communicants, while the galleries are crowded with spectators. The minis- ters of the city conduct services, and the elders of the churches distribule the bread and Wine to the people. A sense of unity and of communion in like precious faith is begotten, which binds all hearts togeth- er in strong, tender bonds. =. ee REMEDY FOR CHoLIc mm Horses.—Take one pint of hog’s lard—melt it over a slow fire, and add soot from the chimney to make It of the consisteacy of cream; alse, two or three pods of red Pepper; pour: mixture in a bottle and drench in usual way. If the horse is not relieved in fifteen or twenty min- utes, repeat the dose. I have given this to a great many horses, and have never known it te fail if given in time. There are many valuable remedies, but the difficulty, is, that the ingredients cannot be obtained on a plan- tation ; but this one, canalways be obtained. If no lard can be had, a pint of grease from fat bacon will answer. ‘al Coroli’s. — fot} y their functions. and cold, and it is therefore wise and pradent t© fortify the system against them by whole some stimulation. Hence it is that Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters prove such an admirable safe- guard against the complaints most common at this season! The ingredients of this powerful vegetable invigorant comprise three essential medicinal elements which act simultaneously upon the digestion, the circulation, the secre- tions, and the nerves, infusing strength and regularity into all. In this way the Bitters put the body in the best possible condition to escape an attack of rheumatism, or intermittent fever, or indigestion, or biliousness, or of pulmonary disease. Cold and damp are very depressing ; almost as much so as excessive heat, and a pro- tective medicine is quite as needful in winter asin summer. The commercial stimulants so unwisely taken in the form of drams to “keep out the cold,” have a precisely opposite effect to that produced by Hostetter’s Bitters. Their first result is succeeded by a reaction which de- vitalizes and prostrates the system ; while, on the otber hand, the tonic and vitalizing operation of the great vegetable invigorant, is not only immediate but permanent. There is no reval- sion, no reverse nervous action. The physique is strengthened, the appetite increased, the bow- els regulated, the stomach reinioreed, and these conditions ¢ontinue. Jf dyspepsia or rheuma- tism, or biliousness, or intermittent fever, or general debility, or nervous weakness, is pres. ent in the system, expel it with this pure and harmless antidote, which is not only invaluable as a preventive of sickness, but also a remedy for a large class of disorders, CHAPTED Hanns, face, rough skin, pimples ringworm, salt-rheum and other cutaneous affec- tionscured, and the skin made soft and smooth, by using the JunrpeR Tar Soap, made by CaswELL, Hazarp & Co., New York.

From the high standing and character of the persons who highly endorse and recom- mend it, any one would be perfectly sufe in buying it without seeing it. Messrs. Barrow and Pleasants did a clever thing when they devised this labor saver for the women. Hitherto little has been accomplished in this direction save the Sewing Machine. Now they have by this taken off the hardest of all works — washing. Itis quite opportune in these days when servants are so hard to get and keep. See what others say ; Messrs. Barrow and Pleasant: Gents ;— Before I purchased your steam Washer I paid $4 pr. month for my family. Now without any additional help I have the washing done at home and pay 50cts per week to have the ironing done, I save $2 pr. month and my clothes are much whiter, and I am satisfied will last much longer than when washed by rubbing or the use of the Board. It is all it is recom- mended to be. Very Respectfully MRS. C. M. COOKE, Louisburge, N. C.

ONE among the oldest institutions in Wes- tern North Carolina, dating back to July. 1832. the Watchman has survived all the adversities, trials, strifes, and ci:anges of more than forty years; and by the grace of the Supreme Disposer of all events, enters upon the year 1874, with unfeigned gratitude to its friend and patrons, to who.n its proprie- tor extends the most cordial congratulations. The Watchwan sprang iuto existence in the days of South Carolina nullification, and entered the political a ena as a champion for the Union, which. at that time, was believed to bein great peril. It was conservative then, and that has been its political charac- throughout its history. When Abraham Lincoln, in 1861, called for Sonthere troops to suppress by force the Southern Confed- ercy inoyemeut, the voice of conservatism was drowned by the roll of the drum and the din of war; aud all men, whacever their op- inion of the inovement. were compelled to take position for or against it. The Watch- man naturally took sides in the fray with the people of its State aud section, who simul- taneously sprang to arms in resistance to Federal coercion. Whatever of suffering, loss, and sorrow ensued therefrom, the Watchman has cheerfully borne its part of it, norregrets, even at this day, the chuice of that hour. But it has passed. The storm which had been gathering for years before, and against which it had vainly struggled, in the fulness of time come, desolating most where boastful pride was most defiaat. It has passed, and we haye long since turned to consider the opening future, and joined hands with the people 10 restoring the losses sus- tained by it. and reinstating the good order which was su thoroughly disturbed in the daysof earnage The Watchman has zealous- ly labored for the restoratiun and preserva- tion of every time-proven good thing, and against the ferocious spirit of radicalism which menaced the must sacred principles of Government which have distinguished us as a people atnong the nations of the earth. It is conservative still, and will continue to la- bor for the cause of law and order, and for the highest good of the peuple. The Watchman has intimately been identified with the varied interests and fortunes of the poeple of Western North Carolina for more than a generation, It has never failed to take an active part in whatever concerned thein, whether, in politics internal improvements, public school, or social, or moral reforms. Its files are a history of this portion of the State for the tine of its own existence. [tis entitled to the favor of the public as on ofa the things of the olden time still filliug ¢ public requirement. There is still work fo it do, and it will continue to advocate the cause of the people. battle for constitu nal liberty, equal aud just laws, and their impar- tial execution. It will continue to labor for the promotion of the agricultural, mechanic aud other industrial interests of the State; aud for general moral social, educational, and material welfare of the people. It will expose and condemn public plunderers, dis- honest officials, and self-seekers at public expense, whilst it will heartily praise those who merit reward. In fine, the Watchman will strenuously endeavor not ouly to sustain its good fame, but to exceed its former efforts in every mat- er serviceable to the public. It has always had many friends and patrous both in State aud out of it, aud they of the better class of people. It is therefore a good advertising medium. especially for those who desire to reach the people of this part of the State. Begs New subscribers are solicited with confidence. The Watchman is not a sensa- tional paper, but is chiefly devoted to sub- stautial and truthful things. We believe that those who subseribe to it will find ita most welcome and profitable visitor; and we therefore request its friends tu aid us in extending its circulation.

Thus these Pillsare at the same time a tonic and a cathar- tic, a desideratum long souglit for by medical men, but never before discovered. In other words, they do the work of two medicines and do it much better than any two we know of, for they remove nothing from the system but im- purities, so that while they purge they also strengthen and hence they cause no debility and are followed by no reaction, Dr. Tutt’s Pills have a wonderful influence on the blood.

They drew the lids with a gentle touch ; With a tender touch they closed up well The sweet, thin lips that had secrets to tell ; About her brown and beautiful face They tied her veil and her marriage lace, And drew on her white feet the white silk shoes, ; Which were the whitest, no eye could choose ! And over her bosom they crossed her hands, “Come away,” they said, “God understands !” And there was silence, and nothing there Bat silence, and scents and egiantere, And jasmine, and roses, and rosemary, And they, said “As a lady should lie, lies she. And they held their breath as they left the room ~ With a shudder, to glance at its stillness and gloom. ° But he who loved her two well to dread The sweet, the stately and beautiful dead ; He lit his lamp and took his key And turned it. Alone again—he and she, He and she; but would not peat Though he kissed, in the old place, the quiet cheek. He and she ; yet she would not smile, Though he called her the name she loved erewhile. He and she still she did not move To any passionate whieper of love. Then he said, “Cold lips and berast without breath, Is there no voice? no language of death ? “Dumb to the ear and still to the sense, But to heart and soul distinct, intense. “See now ; I will listen with soul, not ear, What was the secret of dying, dear? “Was it the infinite wonder of all That you ever could let life’s flower fall ? “Or wasit the greater marvel to feel The perfect calm o’er the agony steal ? “Was the miracle greater to find how deep Beyond all dreams sank downward that sleep ? “Did life rell back its record, dear ? And show, asthey say it doest, past “things clear ? “And was it the innermost heart of the bliss ? To find out so, what a wisdom love is? “Oh, ect dead ! Oh, dead most dear ! I hold the breath of my soul to hear ! “I listen as deep as to horrible hell, As high as to heaven, and you do not tell ; “There must be pleasure in dying, sweet, To made youso placid from head to feet. “JT would tell you, darling, if I were dead, And ’tweré vour hot tears on my brow shed, “T would say, though the angel of death had laid His sword on my lips to keep it unsaid. “You should not ask vainly, without streaming eyes, Which of al! death’s was the chiefest surprise ; “The very arnee and saddenest thing Of all surprises dying must bring.” Ah, foolish world ! Oh, most kind dead ! Though he told me, who will believe it was said ? Who will believe what he heard her say, With the sweet, soft voice, in the dear old way? “The utmost wonder is this: I hear, And see you, and love you, and kiss you dear : “And am your angel, who was your bride, And knew that though dead I have never died.” ——_aao———_— Waar may one always have his pock- eat filled with, even when they are empty ? Holes. To MAKE winter short, give a ninety day note, without grace, right away. March will then come round before you know it. Tux Detroit Free Press says; “St. Louis is talking of widening her principal streets at a heavy cost. It was always a wonder to us how three St. Louis women could put their feet down in any one street at once.”’ AN undecided fellow courted a lady for twenty-eight years and then married her. She turned out a perfect virago, but died in two years after the wedding. “Now,” said hé, in a self-congratulating tone, “see what I have escaped by a long court-ship.”’ Tux firet thing a young man does when he sees a friend with a new hat on is to take it off and serenely try it on his own head. nm a young lady sees one of her tances with a new bonnet, she just liftd'tip her nose and serenely wonders “wherg thé thing got that fright from.” Ma.. Jenkiys playfully remarked to his wife that in her he possessed five fulls, ‘‘Name them, my love.” ‘Yon are beau- tiful, dutiful, youthful, faithful and an armful.” “You have the advantage of me, my dear.” ‘‘How so, my precious.” ‘I have Bat one fool’ Mr. Jenkins made no farther inquiries.” “How is it that you came home from Lay so early last night, Susan ? Didnt you enjoy yourself?” Susan— “Yes ma’am, but the young man as tuk me hig'to supper insulted me.” Mistress —“[dgulted you, Susan? Why, what did he say ¥ Susan—Yes ma’am. He asked if my program was full, and I’m sure I neverdad nothing but a sandwich and a Jemonade, so I came away home.” tal é “T’¥z known many a church to die ’eause it didn’t give enough, but I never knowed a church to die ’cause it gave too mach.

It is re- markable not only for the range and variety of its sewing, but also for the variety and different kinds of texture which it will sew with equal facility and perfection, using silk twist, linen or. cotton thread, fine or coarse, making the INTER- LOCKED-ELASTIC-STITCH, alike on both sides of the fabric sewn. Thus, beaver cloth, or leather, may be sewn with great strength and uniformity of stitch; and, in a moment, this willing and never-wearying instrument may be adjusted for fine work on gauze or gossamer tissue, OF une tucking of tarlatan, or ruffling, or almost ‘any other work which delicate fingers have been known to perform. . And with its simplicity of construction, ease of operation; uniformity of PRECISE action at any speed; capacity for range and variety of work, fine or coarse—leaving all rivals behind it. : We with pleasure refer the public to the Gold and Bronze Medals and Diplomas awarded to our Machinesin Ameri-a, Prussia, England, and recently in Austria at i!:c Exposition in Vienna, where we were awarded five Medals, Merit, Pro- gress, and three for articles manufactured on our Machines.

In their treatment, a purgative, exerting a pow- erful influence upon these various or- gans, is essentially necessary. ‘There is no cathartic for the purpose equal to Dr. J.

He died, in utter abandon- ment, in the city of Philadelphia, some three vears ago. Those who knew George Lippard, while they lament his fate and drop a tear to his memory, will read this sketch with interest; and, equally with those who knew him not, may derive from it something more, we trust, than simple amusement. * * * _ * * * They brought him a dollar. He took it and clutched it in his long, skinny fingers, tried its sound against the | bed-post, and then gazed on it long and intently with his dall leaden eyes. That day, in the harry of business, death had struck him, even in the street. He was hurrying to collect the last roonth’s rent, aud was on the verge of the miserable court where his tenants herded like beasts in their kernels—he was there with the hand-book in his hand, when death laid his icy hand upon him. He was carried home to his spiendid mansion. He laid upon a bed with a sat- in coverlet. ‘The lawyer, the relations and the preacher were sent for. All day long he ls without speech, moving only his right hand, as though in the act of counting money. At midnight he spoke. . He asked fora dollar, and they brought one to him, and, lean and gaunt, he sat up, in his bed and clutched it with the grip of death. : A shaded lamp stood on a table near the silken bed. Its light fell faintly a- round thosplency room, where chairs and carpets, and mirrors, silken bed and lofty ceiling, all said, “Gold!” as plainly as haman lips can say it. His hair and eyebrows were white, his cheeks sunken and his lips thin and sur- rounded by wrinkles that indicate the pat- tern of avarice. As he gat up in bed with his neck bared and the silken coverlet wrapped about his lean frame, his white hair and eyebrows contrasted with his wasted and wrinkled face—he looked like a ghost. And there his life was ceutered in the dollar which he gripped in his clenched fist. His wife, a pleasantsfaced, matronly woman, was seated at the foot of the bed. Hia son, a young man of twenty-one, dressed in the last touch of fashion, sat by the lawyer. ‘The lawyer sat by the table, pen in hand and gold spectacles on his nose. ‘There was a huge parchment spread before him. “$o you think he'll make a will ?” ask- ed the son. “Hardly compos mentis yet,’ was the whispered reply. ‘Wait! He'll be lucid after awhile.”’ ‘My dear,” said the wife, “had I not better send for a preacher.” She rose and took her dying husband by the hand, but he did not notice it. His eye was upon the dollar. | He was a rich man. He owned palaces in Walnut and Chestnut streets, and hov- els and courts in the outskirts. He had iron mines in the State ; copper mines on the Lakes somewhere ; he had gold on in- terest in California. His name was bright upon the records of tweaty banks—he owned stock of all kinks; he had half a dozen papers in his pay. He knew but one crime—to be indebt without the pow- er to pay. He knew but one virtue—to get money. ‘I'hat crime he had never forgotten—this virtue he had never fors gotten, in the long way of thirty-five years. To hunt down a debtor, to distress a tenant, to turn a few additional thousands by asharp epeculation—these were the chief achievements of his life. He was a good man—his name was up- on the silver plate upon the pew door of a velvet-cushioned church. He was a benevolent man—for every thousand dollars which he wrung from the tenants of his courts, or from the debtors who writhed beneath his heels, he gave ten dollars to some benevolet institu- tion. He was a just man—the gallows and the jail aiways found him a taithfal and unswerving advocate. And now he is a dying man—see! as he sits upon the bed of death, with the dollar in his clinched hand. O! holy dollar, object of his lifelong pursnit, what comfort hast thou for him now, io his pain of death} At length the dying man revived and dictated his will. It was strange to see the mother, and son, and lawyer matters ing, and sometimes wrangling, beside the bed of death. All the while the tes- tator clutched the dollar in his right hand. While the will was being made the preacher came—even he who held the pas- toral charge of the great church, whose pew doors bore saintly names on silver plates, and whose seats on Sabbath day groaned beneath the weight of respecta~ bility, broad eloth and satin. He came and said his prayers—deco- rously and in measured words, but never once did the dying man relax his hold of the dellar. “Can’t you sce I’m going?” at length said the rich man, turning a frightened look toward the preacher. The preacher, whose cravat was of the whitest, took a book with a golden clasp from a marble table. And he read : “And I say anto you, it is easier for a cawel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.” ‘Who said these words—who--who?” fairly shrieked the dying man, shaking the hand which clinched the dollar at the preacher’s head. The preacher hastily tarned over the leaf and did not reply. “Why did you never tell me of this be- fore? Why did you never preach from it as I sat in your charch, Why—why?” The preacher did not reply, bat tarned over another leaf. But the dying man would not be quieted : “And it is easier for a camel to ge through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter. the kingdom of God, is it ? Then what’s to beeome of me? Am I not rich ? What tenant did I ever spare, what debtor did I ever release? And you stood up Sunday after Sunday and preach- éd to us and never said one word about the ¢amel.” } The preacher, in search of a consoling passage, turned rapidly over the leaves, and in his confasion came to this passage, which he read : “Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you. Your gold and silver is can- kered, and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days. Be- hold the hire of the laborers who have reaped down your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth; and the cries of them which have reaped are entered iuto the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth !”’ “And yet you never preached that to me !” shrieked the dying man. The preacher, who had _blundered through the passage from James, which we have quoted, knew aot what to say.— He was, perchance, terrified by the very dying look of his parishioner. ‘Then the wife drew near and strove to comfort bim, and the son (who had been reading the will (attempted a word or two of consola- tion. And with the dollar in his hand be sank into death, talking of stock, of rent, of copper mine and camel, of tenant and ot debtor, until the breath left his lips. Thus he died. © When he was cold the preacher rose and asked the lawyer whether the deceas- ed had left anything to such and such a charitable society which had been ingraft- ed upon the preacher’s charch, And the wife closed his eyes and tried to wrench the dollar from his band, but in vain. He clutehed it ag though it were the only saviour to light bim through the darkness of eternity. And the son sat down with dry eyes and thought of the hundreds of thousands which were now his own. Next day there was a hearse followed by a train of carriages nearly a mile in length. ‘There was a crowd around av open grave and an elegant sermon upon the virtues of the deceased by the preach- er. ‘There was a fluttering of crape badges and rolling of carriages, and -- no tears — They left the dead man and returned to the palace, where sorrew died, even as the crape was taken from the door-knob. And in the grave the dead hand still clinched the dollar. Mendelssohn and His Sister. The union of Felix and Fannie Men- delesohn was something wonderful, like the wonderful genins of sensibility and music which endowed them both. Such pure, tender, and noble souls are made for each other. ‘Che more fervid and exac- ting bonds of marriage and parentage did not interfere with the profound sympathy in which they lived, both when together or apart. ‘heir emotions too deep and strange to be conveyed tu the world, like articulate thoughts, they expressed in tones. Seating themselves at their instru- ments, they would for hours carry on an intercourse perfectly intelligible to each other, and more adequate and delicious than any ordinary vocal conversation. When Felix, at Naples, at Rome, or at London, sent to Fanny a letter composed of notes, she translated it first with her eyes, and then with the piano. The moet charming transcripts of these affectionate and musical souls were thus made in mu- sic. Sweeter or moredivinely gifted be- ings have rarely appeared on this earth. Their relations of spirits were sensitive and organic, far beneath the reach of in- tellectual consciousness tidings through the ethereal medium by some subtile tele- graphy of feelings, which transcends an- derstanding, and belongs to a wiraculous region of life. For, when Fanny died, iu her German home, Felix, amid a happy company in London, suddenly aware of some terrible calamity from the distur- bance of equilibrium and dread sinking of his soul, rushed to the piano and poured out his anguish in an improvisation of wailing and mysterious strains, which held the assembly spellbound and in tears. In a few days a letter reached him ans nouncing that his sister had died at that very hour. On receiving the tidings, he uttered a shriek, and the shock was 80 great as to burst a blood vessel in his brain. Life bad no charm potent enough to staunch and heal the cruel laceration left in his already failing frame by this sundering blow. ‘The web of torn fibrils bled invisibly, and he followed his sister to a world of finer melody, fitted for na- tures like theirs. “ ———__~<.>s So long as God holds you up by the will and determination to serve Him with which He inspires you; go on boldly and do not be frightened at your little checks and falls, so loug a3 you can throw yours self into His arms in trusting love. Go there with an open, joyful heart as often as possible; if not always joyful, at least go with a brave and faithful heart. —_ — ~~ A New DEFINITION.—A veil is a la- dy’s protection from the too earnest gaze of the sun of heaven and the sons of men. —— Why does a man think more of a wo- man as a wife than as a sweetheart 7?

He was educated at West Point, and entered the United States army in 1846. He foaght throughout the Mexican war, and was bre for gal- lant and-meritorious condtet in the battles of Contreras and Cherubasco. , He resign- ed from the army in 1849, and in 1851 was admitted to the bar of Clinton county, Ky. From thence he removed to Parris, Lamar county, Texas, where he now res sides. At the outbreak of- the civil war Gen. Maxey warmly espoused the South- ern cause, and organized the first regiment of infantry raised after Hovd’s brigade left that State. He was subsequently promoted ti]l he obtained the rank of Ma- jor General, and was placed in command of the District of the Itdian Territory. His military record in™tAe Gonfederate army is filled with brillant acbievements. Gen. Maxey is in the. prime of life, an elegant gentleman, and will do honor to the State which has thus honored him. The exchange from Flanagan or Hamilton ta: Maxey will be a happy one for ‘lexas. —Lynchburg Republiean. SS ee . About Alligators. All our alligators, says a Galvaston, Texas, paper, as well as the crocodiles of the topics, are oviparous. They are gre~ garious in their habits, although they do not seem to actin concert in obtaining their prey. During the winter season the alligators remain in a state of torpor, buried generally in the mud of the marshes and bayous. ‘Tle first warm weather re- stores their suependinag vitality, aud a few may then be seen sunning themselves on fogs aud other floating debris. ‘They fish principally dariug the night and lie in the sunshine half ae on the surface of the water during the iy A splash in the water, or any slight noise in fact, will instantly arouse their attention, and as their curiosity is great they will slowly swim here and there to ascertain the cause of the disturbance. ‘The whine of a puppy seems to excite them more than aught else; why, I cannot tell, for it is equally efficacious where dogs have nev- er previously been and where it were im- possible to snppose the alligators had ever heard them The resemblance to the noise or bark of their young has been said to be a cause, but such reasoning is falla- cious as at seasons when their young no longer bark, they are equally attracted by a whine, ‘heir ferocity and other dan- gerous qualities have been very greatly overrated and exaggerated. That they are extremely voracious is unquestionable ; but they generally coufine their ravages to fish and other small prey. The har» rowing talee of families being devoured by them are the ‘‘veriest coinage of the brain,’”’ and have in reality no existence whatso- ever. Tae Man Wuo Dues Not Svcceeb.-- This beautiful extract is from the pen of Hon. George S. Hillard :—“I confess an increasing respect for men who have not succeeded in life, as those words are com- monly used. Heaven is said to be a place of those who have not succeeded on earth ; and it is sure that celestial grace does not thrive and bloom in the hot blaze of world- ly prosperity. Ill success sometimes from a superabundance of qualites in themselves good—from conscience too sensitive, a taste too fastidious, a self forgetfulness too romantic, a modesty too retiring. I will not ge so far as to say, with a living poet, that ‘the world knows nothing of its men,’ but there are forms of greacness, or at least excellence which die and make no signs; there are martys that miss the palm but not the stake ; heroes without the laurels, and conquerors without the triumph.” ae WHAT THE FarMErS OF ALABAMA Mean to Do.—Ava meeting composed of the members of nine of the Grangers of Rus- sell county, Ala., held at Seale, on Satur- day the 3rd, the following sensible resola- tions were adopted without opposition. We commend them to the consideration acceptance of our planting friends in N. U. 1st. That it is the true policy and boun- den duty of every farmer to devote in the future, a sufficient quauity of land to corn, peas, potatoes, oats, wheat, rye and turnips for the support, not only for his own family, but for the laborere and stock on his farm, thereby making cotton crop a surplns. 2ud. That instead of paying out such vast sums of money for commercial fertili- zers, every planter should make as much manure at home as poesible, and further improve hia lands by resting and rotation of crops. 3rd. That all peraons refuse to buy farm produce between the hours of sunset and sunrise, and that each grange respectifully request the several merchants of their neighborhoods not to do so. This is a step in the right dircction, and it would be well for the Grangers 1n this section, to adopt and curry out the above resolutions. <-> Cause or THE DeatH OF PRroF. AGAssiz.—T'he autopsy of Professor Ag- gassiz by Dr. Morrill Wyman, indicates that the disease which caused the death of the great noturalist was of long stand- ing. Obstructions which were probably originally fromed in the region _of the heart were carried by the arteries into the brain, and there gradually disorganized and at length checked the cirulation. These morbid processes may have begun years ago, with an inflammation of the lining membrane of the lungs, which has left its traces. The autopsy was made in accordance with the wishes of Prof. Agas- siz, long since placed on record. In death as in life he has devoted himself to the interests of science. Itisa melancholy satisfaction to know that no haman skill could have saved hia life, as auch disease | is far too deeply situated fur surgical aid. _ Ifa pan of water be placed within six inches of either sideoftheatem of a pump- kin or vegetable marrow, it will in the course of the night approach it, and will be found in the morning with one of the leaves on the water. This experiment may continue nightly until the plant be- gins to fruit. Ifa prop be placed within six inches of a young convovulas, or sear- let runner, it will find it, althoagh the prop may be shifted daily. If, after it has twined some distance up the prop, it be unwound and twined in the opposite di« rection it will return to its original posi- tion or die in the attempt; yet, notwith- standing, if two of these plants grow near each other, and have no stake around which they can entwine, one of them will alter the direction of the spiral, and they will twine around each other. Duhamel placed some kidney beans in a cylinder of moist earth; afier a short time they commenced to germinate, of course sending the plume upward to the light, and the root down inte the asoil.— After a few days the cylinder was turned one-fourth around, and again and again this was repeated, until an entire revolu- | tion of the cylinder was completed. The beans were then taken out of the earth, and it was found that both the plame and the radicle had bent to accommodate themselves at every revolution, and the one in its efforts to ascend perpendicularly, and the other to descend, had formed a perfect spiral. But although the natural tendency of the roots is downward, if the soil beneath be dry, and any damp sub stances be above it, the rvots will ascend to reach it. The First Elements of a Home. I never saw a garment too fine for man or maid ; there never was achair too good for a cobbler or cooper to sit in; never a house too fine to shelter the human head. These elements about us, the gorgeous sky the im- perial sun and uot too goud for the human race. Elegance fits man, Butdo we not value these tools of house-keeping a little inore than they are worth, aud sometimes inortgage homme for the mahogany we can bring into it? I would rather eat my dinner off the head of a barrel, or dress after the fashion of John the Baptist in tae wilder- ness, or sit on a block all my life, than con- sume all myself before I get home, and take so much pains with the outside than the in- side was as hollow asan empty nut. Beau- ty is a great thing, but beauty of garments, house and furniture is a very tawdry orna- ment coinpared with domestic love. All the elegauce in the world will not make a home, and I would give more for a spoonful of hearty love, than for whole shiploads of far- niture, and all the upholsterers of the world could gather together.— Theodore Parker. ee Earty RECOLLECTIONS OF MoRGAN~ Ton.—Under this head the Piedmont Press, of Thersday, has the following. Alexander Erwin, the grandfather of Col. Jos I Erwin, the late Dr. W. C. Tate, Mrs. Dr. Jno. C. McDowell, Mrs. Burton Craige and other descendants, was one of the early pioneers of the county, and lived on the place now owned by Mrs. Hannah Caldwell. He was a member of the Legis- lature for several successive terms after the Revolution and was distinguished during the war for lis fidelity to the cause of Independence. After peace the old man etill retained his prejudice against the tories, and it was his habit on public occasions in Morganton to mount his horse and give notice that allsuch who might be in town must leave before sundown ! Being a.fair man, he gave timely warning, bat refusal or failure to obey briught on old style Ku Kluxing which neyer had to be repeated. In that day no “reconstruc- lion’ wasicsortedto.

Vance, Dr. Fox and sisters, of Charlotte. and some of the Bairds and Smiths, of Ashe~ ville ) —— That bright little journalistic luminary, thé Concord (N. ©.) Sun says: Every one knows that Gov.

Don’t be so selfivh ; you are gluttonous in your desires ; you are laboring from a severe attack of “Mother of Presidents” on the brain. Not long since, not content with what really belonged to you, you laid claim to the authorship f ‘Cousin Sallie Dillard,” and some of you want the 20th of May, 1775, changed to some other date, just a3 if Thomas Jefferson had never copied our Declaration. ‘he next news we expect to hear will be that Sir Walter Raleigh first landed at Fortress Monroe, and that Virginia Dare was born at Lynchbarg.

A Horrible Death. A Man Held Fast by a Sea Monster Until the Tide Rises and Covers Him. We were yesterday put into possession of the details of the ao of a Chinaman ou the Coronades, day before yesterday, pays the San Diego World of Jdhuary 15, tha. eclipse in horror the death ecene de- rer‘bed by Victor Hugo, in his ‘T'oilers of tne Sea,” in which a devil fish is intro~ duced with a graphic power. Our readers know that the abalene meat is a prized delicacy of the Chinaman, and that the shell of the abalone, when properly polish- ed, is one of the most fancied cad Peauti. fal things in nature. The abalones are generally sought lower down the coast, but are also found in the neighborhood of a Deigo. Day-before yesterday, Fang Chon, a poiceees herman, residing near eville, known among Americaus by the nickname of “Chowder,” started out to the Coronades in his boat to bunt for abalones. Of course his movements can only be surmised by theevent. The eup- sition ig that he moored his boat and gan his quest. The Coronades- are quite abrupt in their formation— precipit ous, but occasionly broken. ‘Chowder’’ saw an enormous abalone in a cleft of the rock, in a place covered with water when the tide was in, and, throwing himself on his stomach, he dropped over the ledge to wrench the delicacy from its fastuess.— Abalones are univalvular, and if, in des taching one from the rock, to which it can fix itself almost inmovably, one happens to not wrench it loose at once, it often closes its single shell on the rock, prison~ ing the spoiling band and causiug inex-~ pressible agony. This was poor “Chowder’s fate. As his evil star would have it, the abalone was unusually large, and the poor China- man, unable to release himself, must have early realized that he was doomed. From his position leaning over the rock, he could not brace himsclf, or obtain any leverage by which at the sacrifice of the hand, if need be, he could tear himself free. We can imagine the agony suffered by the poor wretch as he waited long hours for the rising of the tide which should end his misery by death. ‘he actual pain endured must have heen unspeakable, and no help was nearer than eighteen miles. We can conceive of nothing so horrible as such a situation, except the ancient Persian punishment of the “Boat,’’ de- scribed minutely in Plutarch in which the victim was thrown to the ground, a boat was turned upside down over him and staked, and his face was smeared with honey to attract the insects. There he was left to die. The poor Chinaman’s plight was almost as bad as this, bat, happily, the returning tide prevented the agony from being as lasting. The inex~ orable waters, however, shortly did their work. ‘l'here came a time when the poor Chinaman could strain no longer, and when the briny flood sucked from hie lungs the breath of life. When, yesterday, ‘“Chowder’s body was recovered by a brother Celestial, his degd hand was clutched iu the remorseless grasp of the abalone, which had so terri- bly avenged the invasion of his rock home. ‘The agony the poor fellow had endured was imprinted on his face. ——_ ~~ ___—_—_- MURDER aND SuIciDE.— We regret to learn of a murder, and the subsequent suicide of the murderer, which occurred at Downing’s Store, near Council's Bluff, in Bladen county, on last ‘Tuesday morn- ing. It seems that the two victims, Messrs. Giles Sykes and William H. Woods, met at Downing’s Store on the day above mentioned. Both were under the infla- ence of liquor and a quarrel between them ensued, ‘I'he result of it was that Sykes was shot tbrough the chest by Woods, killing him instantly, the weapou used being a double barreled shot gun. Some few hours afterwards Woods, filled with remorse for the act he had committed and possibly with 9 fear of the consequences, discharged the contents of the other barrel of the same gun into his body, causing instant death.— Wilmington Journal. ee Swearing. It is not a markof a gentleman to swear, The most worthless and vile, the drankard and the prostitute, will swear as well as the best dressed and edueated gentlemen. No particular en- dowerment is requisite to give a finish to the art of cursing. The basest and mean- est of people swear with as much tact and skill as the most refined ; and be that wishes to degrade himself to the very lowest level of pollution and shame, should learn to be a common ewearer. Any man has talent enough to learn to curse God, and imprecate perdition on their fellow- men. Profane swearing never did any man any good. No man is the richer, or wiser or happier forit. It helps no one’s education or manners. It commends on one to any society. It is diegusting to the refined, abominable to the good ; in- sulting to those with whom we associate ; degrading to the mind ; unprofitable, need- less and injurious to society, and wantonly to profane his name, to call bis vengeance down, to curse him, and to invoke his vengeance, ia perhaps, of all offences, the most awful in the sight of God.— Louth. ———__~+.--———_. A few days ago, Col. T’ G. Walton of Barke called our attention to a fact which may be unknown to many of oar readers. It is, that a blue hog has not a single blue hair on it.

In these times of | pofat out a fe® of them; ‘Phere-are’ some worthy of praise or blame according as bis deeds are good er bad, But there are many a exceptions to thig rule, and my object isto inen ia almost every eommunity who are largely overrun. They stand fair in the world, and thelr reputation would indieate that they were. of irreproachable character. The dopmioa fs prevalent that they are well- meaijug meu, and if a stranger should in- qnire concerning one of them, “how does he stand and is he of good character 7” thé an- swer would in ajl probabitity be, “he stands very high in the community and has a fine reputation &e.” Sach stranger would accept this as evidence of his strength and purity of character, and woald be prepared to add his weed of praise when a- similar question should be propounded ty him. Jt is often, said that if we should err in our judgment of others, let the error be v2 the side of merey. That is a good rule, aod yet I sve no reason why we should award a large share of praise to any one sitaply beeaase he has beer prais- ed by others, And I ain not willing to graut that aman is of good character and high toned, because I ain told that he is popular. There is mach undeserved popularity in this day aud generation, aud men have large rep-_ utation who have very little sulid merit. — They do some plausible deeds and artfully conceal their mean actions from public seru- tiny ; ergo, they are just and irreproachable. Allowing thet we should be apt to forgive the frailties uf poor human nature, there is one custom ‘which I maintain is wrong.— There are many persons of ‘high Standing who practise, with impunity, m'sdeeds that in others would be wholly unpardonable. Tn estimating the worth of men we should con- sider, first and above all, whether they are actuated by prineiple.. When I see one who, I believe, is pursuing a cvurse of conduct which he honestly believes to be right; [ain tempted to admire that man, although he may vot always have a clear conception of the truth. But [cannot have genuine respect or esteem for hitn who, with clearer discera- meat and with enlightened judginent, does a thing that he will adinit to be wrong, in the face of his convictionsand in defiance of pub- lig opinion. Money weighs heavily in tke scale of justice. and is powerful to silence the the voice of reproach when vice parades her- self in public places. It isa lamentable fact, that good meu too often keep silence when the rich man, or man of high family eonnee- tioas, habitually steps aside from the path of yirtue and honor, and condescends to du deeds, fur the commission of which, the poor man would be justly scorned and reproached. There is abundant veed of reform iu this inatter, and the tone of society can never be elevated, nor the cause of christianity ad- vanced without it. Let yirtue assert her claims once more, and let her head be lifted proudly and her silvery vuice be heard; let the brazen visage of immorality and vice be lowered in the dust; then will the dross of corrupt society be reinoved. aud the pure gold of social elevation appear; and then shall a broad line of demarcation be drawn between character and reputation.

SVe recognize the necessity of a tax on tobacco, and that it is for yon, and It is not the rate of tax that renders our busi- neas uncertain, but the contmued agitation of the rate of tax at every seasion of Congress, and the manyer in which it is collected, - ess accompanined with a specified and remote period of reduction, serves to unsettle ihe price, and impede our sales, the bayers naturally holding back expecting to get cheaper tobacco with a lower rate of taxation, and hence we ask yoar honorgble body never to entertain a pro- position for are duction of tax .unless it is specified that it go into effect on the lst of the next succeding July. We name the month of July because our seasons for working Tobacco are such that the work of one season has ample time to be sold and consumed by the Ist of July of the next year, and the Tobacce worked in the months of April, May and June, immediately preceding the time of reduction can in most cases be held without any loss or inconvenience. The mode of collecting the tax, or the require- ment of the tax before the tobacco is removed from the factory is oppressive, we think and and manufacturer of Tobacco, and during such a financial crisis as now exists afford great relief to the country. There is now a great stagnation ir. the tobacco trade from the want of money to market as the manulacturer of tobacco. To rise money or satisfy their creditors others can mortgage. their property, but tobacco is worth- lessasa consideration in a mortgage, unless stamped, neither can it be sold. We might extend our arguments at great length, showing the oppressivenes: of prepayment, but we feel that jL is unneccessary, as we are confident that your honorable body well understands this, but have adopted it from a belfef that it was ne- cessary to secure the payment and prevent fraud, and, we are, therefore, more inclinded to hope that it may be abandoned and that you will give us sixty days time on our stamps, when we pre- sent to you for your consideration, certain regu- lations ang requirements that might be adopted which in our opinion, would give the govern- ment full protection against fraud, which we respecttully present, as follows : Ist. Let our. Manufacturing Bond bind us and our securities, for the payment of our tax. 2d. Never let our indebtedness to the gov- ernment exceed one half the amount of our bond. 3d. Require us whenever we make a requi- sition for stamps to certify that after remoying the tobacco, for which the stamps are required ; that we will still have in the factory of manu- factured tobacco an amount equal to the num- ber of pounds for which we are indebted ta the government, and make it penal if the certificate is false. 4th.

Documentary History of the so-called Declaration of Independence of May 20, 1775—Lecture by President Lelling be- fore the New York Historical Society. At the regular monthly meeting of the New York Historical Society, held in the Library, corner of Second avenue and Eleventh street, yesterday evening, a paper was read by James U. Welling, LL. D., President of the Columbian University, Washington, on “The Documentary Ilistory of the so-called Declaration of Inde- pendence, alleged to haye been made by the People of Mecklenbury County, N.C. on the 20th of May, 1775.” After a brief introduction the lecturer considered the origin of the so-call- ed declaration. The resolutions Which have been termed the Declaration of Independence of the People of Mecklenburg first appear in a narrative pur- porting to have been written comtemporary with the event, which was published in the Haleigh Register of April 30, 1319. isdated immediately after the event, and chroni- cles the assembly of a convention at the county seat, at the call of the commander of the local mnilitia. This convention passed resolutions de- claring that the inherent and inalienable rights of man had been violated by the Crown and Parliament, and forthwith dissolyed allegiance to the home government, and its laws commis- sions, and declared that the people of Mecklen- burg were and of right ought to be free and in- As all previous laws and commis- sions were abrogated by this action, the same were re-enacted under the authority of the peo- ple, and to this declaration the members of the 1 Convention pledge themselves, their lives, their : fortunes, and their sacred honor. ‘The narrative explained the absence of any doeumentary evi- dence in 1819 by the fact that the book contain- ing the record had been burned. Immediately 2. after the publication John Adams charged Jet- ferson with manifest plagiarism in drafting the Declaration of 1776. ‘ He afterwards withdrew the charge, and it is easily proven that the parts of the resolutions which resembles the Declara- tion are to be found in duced by Richard Henry Lee July 25,4776, on whom the charge justly rests, if at all. entire subject was investigated by the Legisla- ai : ture of North Carolina in 1831, and a commiitee | Dr. Pride Jones, of Orange county, ex-.

This is well enough as far as it goes, but it does not fully co.er the caae. Some- a} thing should be done to relieve tax-payers from the burden of supporting in idleness the prisoners in the jail awaiting trial.

Precaution Against Sickness. ‘The ability of the hantan body to resist the causes of disease depends upon its vigor and upon the regularity with which the several or- gans perform their functions. In the winter the most prolific sources of sickness are damp and cold, and it is therefore wise and pradent to fortify the system against thein’ by whole some stimulation. Hetrce it is that Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters ptove such gn admirable safe. guard against the complaints most common at this season. The ingredients of this. powerful vegetable invigorant comprise three essentia! medicinal elements which act simultaneously upon the digestion, the circulation, tle secre- tions, and the nerves, infusing strength and regularity into all. In this way the Bitters put the body in the best possible condition to escape on attack of rheumatism, or intermittent fever» ar indigestion, or biliousness, or of pulmonary disease. Cold and damp are very. depressing ; almost as much so as excessive heat, and a pro- 4 {WStive medicine is quite as needful in winter as in summer. The commercial ‘stimulants s0 unwisely taken in the form of drams to “keep out the cold,” have a precisely opposite effect to that produced by Hostetter’s Bitters. Their first result is sneceeded by a reaction which de- vitalizes and prostrates the system ; while, on the other hand, the tonic and vitalizing operation of the great vegetable invigorant, is not only immediate but permanent. There is no revul- sion, no reverse nervous action. The physique is strengthened, the appetite increased, the bow- els regulated, the stomach reinforced, and these conditions continue. Jf dyspepsia or rheuma- tism, or biliousness, or intermittent fever, or general debility, or nervous weakness, is pres_ ent in the system, expel it with this pure and harmless antidote, which is not only invaluable as a preventive of sickness, but also a remedy | for a large claas of disorders, KIND WORDS. The Associated Reformed Presbyterian says —For years. Perry Davis, Pain-Killer has been known as a most useful family inedisine. For pains aud aches we know nothing sv good as the Paiu-Killer. For inany internal diseases it is equally good. We speak from experience, and testify to what we know. No fanily onght to be without a botile.of Davie, Paiu-hiller. Messrs. Perry DAvIS, & Son.

Croup, Bruises and Cuts. I bave used it in all and found a speedy cure in every case. Yours Truly, T. J. GARDINER M. D. Judging by our own experienee whoever once makes a trialof Perry Davis’ Pain- Killer, will not fail to recommend it widely as an unequalled linwnent, aud valuable in‘ernal remedy for colds and various other complaints.—Lvery Month. The efficacy of Perry Davis’ world re- nowned Pain-Killer in all diseases of the bowels, even in that terrible scourge, the Asiatic cholera, has been atnply attested by themost conviaciug authority. Missionaries in China and Iudia have written home in commendation of this remedy in terms that} should carry conviction to the most skeptical, while its popularity in communities uearer home is ample proof that the virtues claimed for it are real and tangible. Among family mediciues it stauds unrivaled.—Boston Courier. The Saturday Even'g Gazette of Boston, says: , It is impossible to find a place on this brvad land where Perry Davis’ PAIN-KILLER t not known as a must valubale remedy for physical pain. In the country, miles from physician or apothecary. the Pain-Killer is cherished as the exclusive panacea, and it never deceives. “Perry DAvis’ PAIN-KILLER is really a valuable medicament, and, unlike most of the articles of the day, is used by many pbh- sicians. It is partivularly desirable in loca- tions where physicians are not vear; and by keeping ft at hand, families will often save the nececessity of sendiug out at midoigh for a doctor. A bottle should be kept iu every house.’ Boston Traveller. ‘\We have tested the PAin-KILLER, and assure our readers that it not only possesses all the virtues claimed for it, but in many instances surpassess any other remedy we have ever know,’’—Herald of Gospel Liber- ty.

Since this change > have received articles by Ixprees fo New York, 60 which the freight for transportation. was 33} per cent. less tban{ what we heretofore paid on the same articles. We are glad to be able to chroni- cle this faet, for the reason that through the Express Company is. the safest, as well as most expeditious way to ship ar- ticles of value, and it will prove of great advantage to-the public. This reduction ought to secure a very large increase of fatronage, since nearly everybody can now afford to ship by the Exprees Com~ pany. But there are other advantages ip shipping goods by Express; for instance, the Express Company, is, or can be held, responsible for all articles properly intrus- ted to its cure that way be lost. Then the rapidity with which goods are convey- ed from ohe point to another, makes it de. sirable for shippers to use the Express Company in preference to evcry other mode of transportation. a ~_>- rpce Hovse,” N. Y. Jan, 22nd. 1874. Teev. PB. A. Strobel,— Dear Brother : —J have at hand your notes of Jan. Sth, and your very comprehensive review of Bible affairs in North Carolina, which it was very considerate in you to forward at this early date, and which will be put to its appropriate usc in our next annual Report. The list of present officers of Auxiliary Societies, shows alvo the same fidelity and care which have characteris zed all the Statistical returns which you have forwarded since assuming charge of our work in your District. Regretting most deeply the untoward circumstances which have led to your resignation, we feel that the service you have rendered ‘has been of great benefit to the people of North Carolina and very satistactory to the Board of Managers. In the earnest hope that God’s blessing may ever attend you—I remain, Very truly your's. EDWARD W. GILMAN, Con. Sec’y. A. B.S. The above letter is highly creditable to Rev. Mr. Strobel, whose earnest zeal, and lwell directed efforts in the Bible cause in this State resulted so uniformly sue- cessful, while he was acting as General Agent for the State. His resignation. was regretted by all those who were witnes~ aes of his fitness for the work he was iperforming so well. We learn that Mr. S. has recently been elected pastor of Organ chareh, in this county, and that it is probable he will accept the position. ~~ { Another new bank haa been or- ganized under the tittle of the ‘Commer- cial Bank of Charlotte.’ The Directors Miller, Joseph MeLaughlin, W.

We have been informed that a party was here a short time since, with moncy and plenty of backing, and desirous to ope a bank Here; bit that he was advis~ ed by ‘certain individuals not to do so. And itis alleged that the reason such advite was given, is that the parties who opposed the establishment of a bank in Salisbury, have money to lend, and they were fearful, if a bank was opened at which our eitizens could be accommodated, their high rate of interest would be stopped. Now, the town would be greatly bene- fited bythe opening of a bank at which our people could be accommodated, the usurious money- lenders to the contrary not- withstanding. Weare greatly in need ot more banking facilities here, Some of ouy eitizens have had to go to Statesville, to get bank accommodations. This is ‘too bad» Yet it must continue in this way so long as a few selfish individuals, who are more-interested in geting a high rate of interest on their money than they are in the welfare of the town, are allowed to control affairs and dictate to our people what they may have and what they must do. Stich a course of conduct is well calculated tq bring hard times and busi- ness stagnation upon Salisbury. ————~-~.-—__—_— ‘Sad Accident—A little girl, the ddnetitet of the Widow Elliott who hives near Salem Charch in this county, was so badly burned yesterday at the school house, as to cause death this morning.

ROBBINS, OF NORTH CAROLINA, In the House of Representatives, ° SATURDAY, dan. 24, 1874. The House, as in Committee of the Whole, having under consideration the bill to pro- tect all citizens in their civil aud equal rights— MR. ROBBINS said: Mr. Speaker: In the discussion of this so-called ‘‘civil-rights bill,’’ the Representa- tives of North Carolina have thus far occu- pied but little of the time of the House, and myself none at all, as I preferred to hear fal- ly the advocates of the ineasure before giv- ing iny views. But a sense of duty will not permit oe to remain silent longer ou a sub- ject so vitally important to the people of the entire South. The Northern States, whose eople are nearly all of one race. will be little affected by this measare; and their Representatives here. knowing little of the practical ditficnlry of maintaining free gov- erument avd social harmony among a heter- ogeous pepulation like ours, nay think it a light thing to indulge ir this theoretical and fanciful legislation, and thus to thrust a new factor into the great and novel problem which we of the South have to solve. Bat that spiritof comity and wnutual good-will which should exist among all the sections of a common country, now irrevocably bound to a common de-tiny, ought to induce our northern countrymen to hearken with patt- ence abd deference to the protest which comes up against this measure from all those thirteen States whose welfae it most deeply coucerns——States which. itis true, you lately overwhelined on the field by your superior numbers, but whose hervism in the struggle aud whose bearing under defeat entitle them to the respeet of their brave adversaries. So important were those States in area. climate. suil, and resources, that a dozen years ago you declared that their coutinuance in the Union was necessary to the “vation’s life.” as you phrased it. If that were so, are not their peace and prosy erity iu the Union es- sential to the nation’s healthy life? If by an unwise policy you keep that half of the bo- dy-tolitie rrorbid and disordered. will not the uatiun—like my late constiuerts and supporters, the Siainese-twins, after oue was paratyzed—drag out buta diseased, enfee- bled, cu’! miserable ex:stence ? The bill under di: cussion reads as follows: A bill to protect all citizens iu their eivil and legat rights. Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of Amri- ca in Congress assembled, That whoever. be- ing a corporation or natural person, and owner or in charge of any publicinn: or of avy place of public amusement or entertain nent for which a liceuse froin any legal au- thority is required ; or of any line of stage- coaches, railroad, or other means of public carriage of passengers or freight; or of any cemetery, or other benevolent institutions, or any publie school supported, in whole or in part, at public expense or by endowment for public use, shall make any distinction as to admission or accommodation therein of any citizen of the United States because of race, color, or previeus condition of servi- tude, shall. on conviction thereof. be fined not less than $100 nor more than $5,000 for each offense; and the person or corporation zo offending shall be liable to the citizens thereby injured in damages. to be recoveted in an action of debt. Sec. 2. That the offenses under this act aud actions to reeuver damages may be prosecuted before any territorial, district, or cirevit court of the United States having jurisdiction of crimes at the place where the offense was charged to have been committed as well as in the district where the parties may reside, as now provisioned by law. Ainendmeut proposed tu be submitted by Mr. Morey: Add to the end of section 2 the following : And all of the provisions of the act enti- tled “An act to protect all persons in the United States in their civil rights, and fur- nish the means of their vindication,’’ passed April 6th, 1866, relating to the enforcement of civil righ!s, with the penalties therein pro- vided, are made applicable in the prosecu- tion of offenses uuder this act. Whether Congress has the right, under the Constitution, to enact such a law. (which I do not believe.) or whether such right per- tains solely to the States, (which is my opiu- jon ) L will not stop to diseuss, for not ouly has that question been fully debated already, but even if the right of Congress to pass this bill were undoubted, [ should still oppose it on account of its ruinous inexpediescy.

But fortunately these thivgs are beyond their power, being protected by a constitution which our radiealists and~tigher Jaw men cannot.and therefore dp not, violate and trample oo. Bat there is one thing which these fanatical levers might do, and to be consistent they ought to do it at once. Above your head. Mr. Speaker, I see the iinage and presentment of the eagle-——our national em- blem. In the name of equality, sir. I de- mand what business has hethere? He is a monarch—the king of birds. He is no fit emblem for us in these times—no proper representative of the prevalent ideal. I sug- gest that he be torn down, as the French tore down the monogram of the Emperor.— Do you ask me what bird could with pro- priety be putin his place? The crow, sir.— He is a bird of medium size, avd therefore embodies well the idea of the levelers. Tis plumage is of the favorite color, so popular with the dominant party. [Laughter.] I will not—because it would seem ungracious —earry out the parallel in its details, and show how fit an emblem for the times he is in other respects, such as his thieving pro- peusities, and the like. ([Laughter.] I think what has been suggested is sufficient tu satisfy you that if this biil is to pass, the so-called reformers should at least amend it by providing that the eagle shall henceforth come down from his proud perch, and the crow be exalted in his stead. Laughter.] The gentleman from Massachusetts (MR. BuTLER] seemed himself to abandon the idea of the absolute equality of men; for he formulated bis ductrine in these words :— “That every man has the right to_become the equal of another, if he can.” In some sense that may be conceded as true. But thai is not what this bill proposes. It does not propose to leave the negru to be the eqaal of the white man, “Gf he ean ;”’ for our laws ainply provide for that now, by open- ing to the negro every avenue tu progress aud emolument which other men poss&s — But this bill seeks to make the negro equal tothe white man by pulling the white man down to the level of the negro; by providing that thewhite man shall be nothing, haye nothing, and enjoy nothing, unless he sees to it that the negro shall be, have, aud enjoy precisely the same thing. Sir, since it is impossible for any one man to be equal toor like any other man. is it not more philosophical to say that such a thing can be no proper object of human effort or ambition? Our rights are limited by our du- ties, and our drties are measured by our capabilities. ‘To whom much is given, of hin shall be much required.” I lay this down as the true doctrine—that every man has the right. aud is bound by the duty. to fill the sphere and move in the orbit to which God and Nature have assigned hin, as indi- cated by his peculiar natural endownments which, being different in each individual and in each race, point out for each a different part to perforin. If we could change this, and compel all to revolve in one and the same orbit, we should overthrow eternal laws, and reduce the world back to chaos. In speaking of the characteristics of the negro, I do not mean any disrespect to him. I respect all men as men and as the children ofa common Father, and I trust [havea heart to wish well to all and to do good to all. But, sir, the negro is not a black white man. He isa different man with different taleuts. different duties, and different rights. In saying this I do not deny unity of origin and a common aneestry to the hu- man family. I believe in these things, be- cause such seeins the plain teaching of that Book which southern men generally rely upon as the embodiment of perfect truth. Do you ask me, then, whence sprang the huge dissimilarities which mark the several have thus distinguished them for ages? That is a‘questicn which has puzzled the brarns of scientists for centuries, and it would be pre- suinptuous in me to attempt its solution. Bet we are told iv the Book of bouoks there it.) and while they were engaged iu buildiug a lofty tower, as a common rallying point, for the parpose of preventing their own dis- persion, this design of theirs being opposed to the design of the Creator, He caine down and, by an exertion upon the whole race at onee, of that omnipotent power by which divided them up into tribes, and nations, and races, and scattered them abroad over the world, giving to each division a different speech, and probably, at the same time, a a specific physical type ; fur that great chan- ges were wrought in man’s physical constitu- tion about that period is proven by the faet that previously men lived nine hundred years. while eyer since the measure of thier days is three score and ten. Butthis is a digression, aud this is not the time or place to follow up the idea. sing ethnology, I would enlarge upon and fortify it. I merely throw out the hiut, to be pondered by those who realize the mystery and (as Carlyle says) ‘the deep tragedy of huinan life.”” But, sir, no matter how the races originated, they do exist and are not alike. The negro is different from the white man. In some things he excels the white man. He has much music in his soul. He can outsing, outdance, outlaugh, and outfrolic the white man. He is more docile, more self-satistied, more imitative, more affectionate, more passionate, and perhaps more naturally eloquent than the white man. He is the world’s “merry-andrew.” He is the world’s star actor on the comic stage. Such are the endownments of the negro; and some of them are noble qualities, and by no means show that the negro may not fill a usefal and impor- tant place in the world’s future civilization. But when you come to the grand tragic and heroic parts in the drama of humanity, where will, force, courage, forethought, the sense of masterdom, and the instinct of dominion are required to shine, the negro fails. Despite all that we have heard on the subject, the negro is no fighter. To prove that he is, we are poin ed aud the rocks, He first made inan out of the dust,of the earth, | If we were ina lyceuin diseus- | branches of this common family, aud which i too. was a period when “the whole was of one, language and one lip,”’ (as the Hebrew has | i enfranchise him as you may, he to the records of the tecent war between the States.

Did you ever meet the negro on the battle-field ? ‘ _Mr. ROBBINS. Yes,sometimé, and whip- io him nye too. it was my business for our years on the battle-field to meet all comer’s without regard to “race, color, oF previous con- dition of servitude.” Sa The gentleman from Massachusetts | Mr. BuTes] has given usa glowing ae¢count of how he sent in a column of three thoysand negroes to take a redoubt at Newmarket Heights, pro- tected, he says, by two lines of strong abattis and manned by one thousand of Lee’s veterans. Relying solely on the weight of his column and the energy of the charge, he says he ancap- ped the muskets of his men to prevent their tiring. And he says they took the redoubt with a of five hundred and forty-three kill- ed, and that the thousand rebels were so frigten- ed—of course they were not nest, as his men had no caps on their muskets—--that they did not stop running for four miles. Now, far be it from me to charge that gentleman with in- tentional or conscious exaggeration. I have always thought it was crnel and unjust in Prince Hal to accuse Falstaffof lying when he recoun- ted his fight with the supposed travelers on Gadshill. I have always believed that Sir Jolin did really see eleven men in buckram, though it was dark, and only Hal and Poins were their. Allowance must be made, sir, for theexcitement of fancy in combatants rehearsing their own exploits and “fighting their battles ever again.” Laughter.] But absent, wounded, at the date spoken of by the gentleman from Massachusetts, of course Icannot speak of the facts from personal ob- servation. But from many comrades who were thereabout at the time I have always under- stood that when Ord’s column of white troops surprised and took Fort Harrison, which was the centre and key of our Confederate position, whatever posts to the left of it were given up at all were abandoned at once under orders and without serious resistance, their isolated situa- tion rendering them untenable. A handful of skirmishers, moved by the instinct of old figh- ters, may have given a parting shot or two as they were ordered away. Four or five were usually wounded in battle to one filled outright. If five hundred and forty-three were killed in thas negro column, two thousand or twenty-five hundred others must have been wounded; so that is really wonderful, that the small squad Icfc_ should have been able to terrify so thoroughly will their uncapped muskets that thousand powder burnt Confederates! There does not appea any good reasons for their running in such wild dismay ; and no one knows better than the gen- tleman from Massachusetts that the men he used to meet in battle were not given to running away without a good reason. Mr. Speaker. it appears now that we men of the South must have been under a strange delusion. Those serried lines which used to charge us with such terrible vigor looked like white men to us; and if the field ever remained in onr hands, we always found that the slain heroes who strewed the ground so thickly were alas! our white American brothers—all honor to them; all honor to the heroic dead on both sides who laid down their lives for their prin- ciples! We thought then that the masses of heroic white troops led by Grant, and- Sherman, and McClellan, and Meade, and their compeers, were the men we ought to dread ; but we learn now that it was the hero from Massachusetts and his colored troops that we had most reason to fear. Wonderful ! that we should thus have been destroyed by that which then caused us sv little apprehension ! I am to!d that the records of the war show that only some fifteen huffdred negio troops were killed in the entire four years. That fact alone speaks volumes. We know that a single corps of white troops—Federal and Con- federate alike—sometimes lost that inany killed in one battle. Meagher’s brigade of heroic Irishmen must have lost a large fraction of that number at Fredericksburg. There was fighting indeed. And though I was their adversary there, yet in honor of their matchless gallautry I pray that the turfon their graves may be as green forever as their own Emerald Isle. Look atone more fact. Nearly three years before the war ended the four millions negroes of the South knew that its result involved the question of their liberty. Yet while continent shook with the earthquake of war, and nobody was athome but old men and boys to keep them in order, those negrovs seized no weapon and struck no blow. I do not mention it as a re- proach to them. It merits rather the thanks of southern men. I mention itonly toshow that the negro is not like the white man. What raceof white men would have remained quiet under thesame circumstances? When the proc- lamation of emancipation was issued the peculiar patrons of the negro in the North expected him to rise and throw off the yoke and butcher our wives and children; and in the abundance of their philanthropy and humanity they hoped so, The result showed how little they knew of and their whole policy the negro character ; | shows how little since, by, this very bill to-day, they still understand him. Sir, the negro may excel in but he is lacking in those peculiar enc of vigor, will, and force of character dominion in this rough world of ours. Where- fore it Was said that “Japhet shall dwell in the tents of Shem, and Canaan shall be his servant ;” and the white man has come all the way from Europe, and the Indian has beep dispossessed and the negro has been brought from Africa, that the prediction might be fultiled here in Ameri- ca. Sir, the negro is a clinging parasite. | Ife looks up to others as_his superiors. Ife is an inveterate servant. Free him how you will, still wants for In all the minor qualities, Jownments which give guidance and submits to command, Southern States to day he is but the tool of political shysters, who prate of his bodily free- dom while they enslave his soul. Ever hereon this floor (and I mean no disrespect to any fel- low-meinber by this remark) he does nothing, he.say: nothing, except as he is prompted by his managers; even here he obeys the bidding of his new white masters, Who move him Jikea puppet on the chessboard. ; The old system of slavery, as once exist- ing in all the States, is forever dead and buried, and I have no tears to shgd over its grave. always believe it would come to an end before a great while, because I saw it was_ changing ; and whatever thing changes must die. ‘There is in the universe but One eternal, because there is but One immutable. Sir, slavery has fulfilled its mission, which was to civilize and christianize an originally savage race. It was God Almighty’s school to which he sent the negro to be trained and develoyed. Practically, as human nature is, it seems the only system by which he could have been protected, fed, cloth- ed, and cared for, while gradually acquiring civilization from the more cultivated race in whose presence he dwelt. ‘This line of remark may seem digressive, but I adopt it in defence of my native South. She is often derided for her slow material progress in the past, and her late social system is denounced as the cause. Sir, 1 have heard these revilings of my people till my spirit burns within me. I stand here to-day as an independent and fearless vindicator of the South. T hope I ehall not be charged with improper sectionalism in so doing. Other parts of the country feel free to talk of themse! ves here. When we were talk- ing of the centennial celebration yesterday we heard Pennsylvania boast of the glorious events that have made her renowned; and Massachu- setts took up the refrain and sounded her own praises, too. They had a right todo so. But aes oe is consistent with national sentiment me States to boast of their renown, it can- not be wrong for other Statesto defend them- selves against unjust reproaches. It was not slavery, sir, which kept the South back ; it was the presence there of four millions of men who came to us at first utterly untrained SAVAGES 5 antl these we had to govern, train, and improve, as best we might. Herein it was our mission to expend our moral and material forees, and it entailed upon us great burdens ; for these men were awkward and unskillful laborers, whereby our effurts were of necessity confined to the coarser and more primitive kinds of ha- man industry j and thus we suffered infinite material loss. The North, with her skilled and educated laborers and artisans, was at liberty to devote herself to the more complex and refined industrial pursuits, with consequently higher pone and more rapid growth in affluence. To have freed our slave laborers, and set about dir- e:tly educating them in the schools was, for many reasons ; a practical impossibility, If we had freed them much eaglje they were set free, and thrown them on their own résour- | ces, they would have perished in their helpless- ness. When they were freed, immensely advan- ced as they then were in practical knowledge of the arts of civilized life beyond their original condition, consider what immense cost and la- bor it has required on the part of this great Government, through the machinery of the Kreedman’s Bureau and other agencies, to hold that race up till it got to stand alone. While the North, therefore, can point to her great cities, her wide commerce, and her abound- ing wealth, as the results of her efforts, may not the South truthfully say that the grand work of civilizing and elevating a whole *race has been mainly hers ? I donot claim, nobody pre- tends, that the great and beneficent result which, under Providence, we have thus wrought out were directly and consciously aimed at by us with deliberate purpose. In our dealings with the Africans we were, ofcourse, mainly prompt- ed by those ordinary notives of self-interest which move human nature everywhere; just as were the Yankee slavers who deported the negro from his native land and sold him to us. Ile owes none of us, North or South, many thanks. But Ido maintain that his remove from Africa, and temporary subjection in this country, have been the divinely appointed means of his civilization and Christianization. These things seem so obvions to me that I con- tent myself with simply stating them and leav- ing them for the reflection of all candid minds. Neither ought the negro, or his sot-disant friends, to indulge perpetual bitterness, as if in all those events any wrong or any strange thing has happened to him. We may speculate upon the absolute right of every human being, under all circumstances, to liberty and_ self-control. These are fine abstractions. But the order of nature and of Providence, which is practical, seems to be that eyery man, every nation, and every people shall first pass through a stage of subjection and pupilage under some superior authority before arriving at maturity and en- franchisement. Each individual man_ passes through this stage of youth and suborination to his parents before he becomes of age. The leading of Israe) into Egypt and into bondage was as wonderful and as necessary as their exo- dus therefrom. And as for nations, Spain, France, England, end the United States and all others, I believe, first went through a period of dependence on some superior power or to moth- er country before they reached independence and autonomy. The negro race, therefore, in being required just to serve and to be protected, and to learn, has only obeyed a law of human develo ment, universal in its application. Looking at what has been done for him, the negro has perhaps done less as yet for himself and the world than any other man in history. In his own land he has always been and still is asavage. Against his own will, the English and Yankee slavers stole him from Africa and sold him into southern servitude and as soon as these had done so and got the money, began to roll up the whites of their eyes over the sin of slavery and to plot for his frecdom. Against his will, the southern master trained him to regular labor and civilized habits, and gradually fitted him for tiberty Then ina grand conflict of arms among white men, in which he took no important part, he was freed. Afterward white men, voluntarily, without any effort of his, enfranchised him, made hima voter, and empowered him to hold office. As a freeman and voter he has put bad_ men _in power, mace suffrage a farce, destroyed public credit, ruined States, and disgraced republican institutions ; ahd the return he makes is to clamor for more power and more privileges that he may further blight and wildew and waste our general wel- fare and prosperity. Is it not time to eall a halt inthis wild, negro-toting legislation ? Is it not best to content ourselves with the ample guarantees which have been provided to protect the negro in his rights of life, liberty, and pro- perty, and set to work to see if we can save the institutions of this country, the good name of republican government, and the cause of human rights throughout the world? . France and Spain, our earliest allies, led by our example, have both, since 1789, struck many a resounding blow for liberty and popu- lar institutions. from tyrants and seem to be retrograding back to menarchy, and inviting again the voke of the depost. Why is this? Itis because our example no longer cheersand encourages them, When they look this they way see South Carolina, Florida, Mis-i-spp), Louisiana, under so-called repnblican govern- ments, crushed, dispolled, oppressed, and ruin- ed—all this the work of the negro and his baser allies. Thus our example rivets chains on the necks of the nations. Central and South America it impossible to establish good ernments. They breed revolutions and disor- ders as putrifying carcasses breed worms. It is because they are mongrel nations. They have no unity of race, interest, or sympathy 3 ho common aspiration, no concord, no cohesion. Still, in pursuit of a vain and crazy theory of universal equality, born from the brains of im- measurable fools, you propose to follow in thier footsteps and mongrelize half this nation, there- by rendering its healthy life impossible. Is it not time to call a halt ? _ It is impossible to un and nobody purposes to at ever, unless by common senre and common con- sent and by peaceable means. But we can avoid going further on the down-hill road. Sir, itis time to recur to the doctrine in which is bonnd up the salvation of this country—the doctrine that this the is white man’s land and ought to be a white man’s government. I whish I had time to review the record of the great leaders of the radical party in the first few years etter the war, and show how indignantly they then spurned the idea of making the negro a suffra- ragan and political power in thiscountry. They have long since gone beyond their scruples then. Party greed and ambition drove them on; and thesame motive pushes them still on to propose this last and most ruinous of all their measures. Ifany happy future remains for this country, it must soon be delivered from that party and its reckless policy. This, sir, I repeat, isthe white man’s Jand, and he is responsible for its, wel- fare. ‘The temple of liberty funnded here, and toward to which all the down trodden nations turn their faces to pray for deliverance, is com- mitted to his charge. Let all the gentiles come, if they list —Chinese, Indian, Malay, African— and worship, and be amply and chivalrously: proice ed while they worship, it 1s ouler courts and Mexico find and stable gov- do what has been done, tempt that now, nor become educated and their pride’ 1 ace. developed, they wil! jeder ee NO. 22.---W HOLE NO. 19 bat the consecrated priest who minis a ales only the whit a 7m n my opinion this is not the permanen of the negro, He pascarsina bese ana Sian boy under a conrse of tuition. He will graduate after awhile and leave school. He is not in- creasing in uumbers. By the census reports, the African race in this country, during every de- cade before the last, increased on’ an average about 22 per cent.; during the ten years from 1860 to 1870, half of which period the negroes were in their former state of servitude, they gained 9.7 per cent. only, much less than half 9 former rate. We may infer then that the 7 percent. was gained befure 1865, and that from then to 1870 (under freedom) they increas- ed none, but rather declined in numbers, The overshadowing white race is increasing rapidly in the land. _In any event, then, the negro will in course of time be reduced to comparative in- sigaificance. But for the present he is here in sufficient numbers, and makes up a euffitient fraction of the population in thirteen States to progréss of the South, if this kind of tegislation ts to prevail. But in proportion ag the negroes elope wid | where, in spite of all laws and pretences, they ure looked upon as pariahs and inferiors and they will pine for a country where they can be the real, not merely the nominal, re of all. Then will come the voluntary exodus, whether to Central America, or Cuba, or Afriea (more probably) to carry back civililation and the gospel to their fatherland, where the white man cannot carry it, I will not venture to speculate ; for the womb of the future yet holds these things. . Mr. Speaker, these ideas of mine may seem novel, and my utterance of them in this place and on this occasion may appear extraordinary. I desire it may be distinctly understood that no indiyidual and no party is responsible for what 1 have said except myself only. But I have carried out my purpose not to go over ground already trodden in this debate; and I have offer- ed these suggestions, also, with design, that | might aid, if possible, in stemming: the tide of fanaticism: and mongrelism, which, if it should continue to advance, would ultimately sweep over our wliole land and destroy every vestige of its former beauty and glory. . You have heard how this bill, if passed, wil! destroy our southern free schools. Not only is that true; it is true, also, that it will destroy the white republican party in the South. If I de- sired only party advantage, and not the welfare of the people of my country, I would wish you to pass this bill; for no respectable wiite man in my country is in favor of it; all are bitterly against it, and all will desert you if you paas it. But the evils which this bill would entail on us are too great a price to pay for any mere party success; anc I therefore hope if it comes to a vote it may be voted down. If you destroy our reviving free schools what isto become of us? And especially what is to become of the orphans of our soldiers? The ne- groes will fare better than they. Private schools supported by northern donations, by Friends’ societies, by liberal contributions from negro sympathizers everywhere, dot our hills, and ure filled with negro children. I do not complain of this; I rejoice at it; for I want all educated, by whatever means. Lam an enthusiastic friend of universal education.

But our poor white soldiers’ orphans are forgotten. No heart has a pulsation for them, except the hearts of their poverty-stricken living comrades. Weare striv- ing to build up the ruined foundations, and again to consecrate the moldering shrines of so unless we admit him there too, despite what we know is for his good and ours; and notwith- standing we everywhere provide for him out o ly equal, though separate, privileges of educa- tion. Ifthis shall be furced on ue in apite of our protest, surely the curse of HTeaven, in re- eponse to the orpkan’s cry, will smite the wick- ed, besotted, reekless rulers of this country. The masses of the negroes of the South donot desire this enforced association in churches, in graveyards, hotels, schools, and elsewhu:e.— They know full well, especially, mate intermingling of the young will deprave our children and corrupt theirs. It is the idle, mulatto, paper-collared gentry, wh) hang around ored men of the South devote themselves, who keep up this agitation.

We intended also to-Have the members re-adopt the provis- io of the election law with respect to the selection of two Supreme Court Judges— to have them pass a law taxing worthless cw and in favor of wool growers,—re- nvedel the School laws, complete the revi- afl and destruction of “Battle’s Revisal,” atid do many other things of great impor- ® ° tance to the people, which our learned law-makers had failed to think of, owing to the great pressure of business of more vital public interest, to say nothing of the Consolidation Bill and other matters sug- gested by rings and cliques.

Hearing that both Houses of the Gen- eral Assembly would disband finally at about 3 o’clock in the evening, we saups tered np to the capitol to witness the ad~ journment ceremonies. We were not very favorably impressed with the dignity of our law-makers ; for after taking acarefal survey of both Houses, we conld not help thinking that many of the members are better adapted to the pursait of some branch of industry requiring mazual la- bor, than they are to the profession of law-makers, which requires bruins. How- ‘ever this may be, we do hope that the legislators hereafter. Let the best men, the most competent be chosen. Let abil- ity, honesty, practical business tact, and fidelity to truth and right, be the tests of fitness for the position, and the people will rarely have cause to complain of their representatives, In these times of financial embarraas- meut and high taxes, how much we need men capable of rising above mere _parti- san or selfish considerations to the impor- tant issues of the hour. It is useless to hope for better tines until the people re- solve to take more interest in their public affiira, and are more careful in the selec- tion of their public officers. , We heard it reported in Raleigh that a new paper was gvon to be started there uuder the auspices of ex-Gov. Vance, and Col. Johuson of Charlotte. If true, it nay be to help ont certain senatorial as~ pirations, and in this case itis destined to prove unfortunate to all concerned. It seemed to be the impression in Ralcigh that the State would yet be com. pelled through Federal Courts to pay the so-called Special Tax Bonds. This would indeed be a calamnity if our people should quietly submit to it. Bat they should resist it to the lagt, and only yield when the exaction is made at the point of the bayonet. - We may refer to other things we heard and saw at the capitol, hereafter. “Building and Loan Associa- tion” Meeting. Ata meeting of the citizens of Salis- bury this evening at Meroney’s Hall. 1. J. Meroney was called to the chair, aud J. F. Ross on motion was elected Sec. The chairman Mr. T. F. Klutiz to explain the object of the meet- ing, Which he did in a few timely res marks, Ile alluded to the necessity fora con- cert of action on the part of our citizens, in order to promote the prosperity of Salisbury, and pointed ont salisfactorly that a Building and Loan Association would greatly tend to obtain the result. ‘The meeting was addressed by several other gentlemen, all fucoring in a most decided and eatistactory mauver the nee- essity ot a Building and Loan Association and added many illustrations to prove the vast benctit that would attend its orgaui- zation, The reports of several Associations in other places were introduced, aud were very encouraging to the friends of one here, A Committee was appointed to. receive subscriptions, and the number heretofore subscribed was increased to the handsome nuraber of 200 shares, at the ultimate par value of g200,00 each. Ou motion, Rev. F. J, Murdock, T. F. Kluttz, P. A. Frercks, G. A. Bingham and J. F. Ross, were appointed a com- mittce to “draft a Constitution and By- Laws, and investigate the law in regard to a Charter,” and report at our next meeting. On motion, a meeting of the Stockhol- ders, and the public generally, was called fur next Monday night Feb. 23rd at Me- roney’s Hall, when it is hoped to effect an organization. The Messrs. Meroneys, tendered the use of their Hall to the triends of the As- sociation until its organization, free of charge. The See. was intrusted to furnish a copy of these proceedings to the “Caron lina Watehman,” with a request for the publication of the same. On motion the meeting adjourned. T. J. MERONEY, Chr. J. F. ROSS, Sec. Salisbury, Feb. 16th 1874. called on _ HON. Z. B. VANCE. We find the subjoined sketch, accom- panied with a splendid likeness of Gov. Vance, in the Baltimoreun. The sketch we believe is pretty accurate, and will be read with interest by the many admirers of this gallant gentleman : The subject of this sketch was born in the county of Buncombe, near jts seat of rjustice, Asheville, in the mountains of North Carolina, on the 13th of may, 1830. His father was a most respeeted merchant. His mother’s father, Zebulon Baird, was one of the trusted citizens of Buncombe, for many years chosen as their represen- tative in the General Assembly. His father died when he was quite young. His mother devoted herself to his taining with the loving and intelli- gent care, which so often distinguish and reward the women of our land. Her sender means, however, prevented good people of North Carolina will be. more particular in making s:lections of | re ucation in hig boy- d by the) coantry the chicfiext_ books, But young Zeb had an enqniring mind. He read with avidi- ty every volume within his reach, and being gilted with great quickness and a strong memory, in his boyhood began the accumulation of the stores of illustra tious and strong, apposite diction which have made him conspicuous in his man- hood. He had acéess to few Books, bat those were good ones. A gentleman fresh from the Seiior ‘class of:a university, traveling in Bancombe, was amazed at finding the superior acquaintance and apt- speare, and Scott’s novels, displayed by our half grown and half edacated moun< tain boy, and twenty-five years ago pre-~ dicted his subsequent success. In 1852 young Vauce went to the University of North Oaroliza where he spent one year. [le stood among the firat in the branches to which he devoted him- self. He bere began the study of law aud soon afterwards was admitted to the bar. He made Asheville his home and soon commanded a fair share of practice. He early became inflaential with the jary, his humor, and ready elyquence telling well on the mind of the average moun~ taineer. He tells on himself with much glee the first compliment he received for his forensic efforts, “Zeb, if gou can only get apast the Judge, 1’d as lief have you as any old lawyer.’”’ It was not long be. fore his “getting past the Judge” was not the sabject of doubt. Like most young men of active and ambitious minds, Mr. Vance went early into politics. He was elect:d to the Leg-~ islature in 1854, where he was one of the most prominent among the young men, being an enthusiastic Henry Clay Whig. His peculiar powers were not fully devel- oped, however, until 1858, when he took the stump iffopposition to the late W. W. Avery as a candidate for the National House of Representatives in the Mountain Distiict. This district had once been Whig. The people, howeyer, were devotedly attached to Thomas S. Clingman, who for many yeara represented them in Congress.— When Mr, Clingman swung around to the Democratic side, he retained his ascen- dancy notwithstanding his change of base, carrying the district in 1857 by 2.000 majority, over his Whig opponent. When, therefore, in consequence of being promo- ted to the Senate, be resigned his seat, it was generally thought Mr. Avery, a man strong in debate and of an influential family, would easily fill the vacancy.— When Mr. Vance announced his iuteution to oppose him, he was applauded for his gallantry, but laughed at for his supposed folly. Jn this campaign, Mr. Vance then only 28 years old, displayed those qualities of a stump orator avd leader of men, for which he is now so conspicuous and un- equalled. Quick at repartee, teeming with anecdotes, which he tells with happy humor, able to pass at will from = mirth- moving fun to invective, eloqnence and pathos, by his power of presenting argu- ments and facts in an interesting light, his consummate tact and winring ways, “he stole away the hearts of the people.” He was elected by a majority as large as the year before had been given to his Democratic predecessor. In the following year, David Coleman, another distinguished Democrat, measured his strength with the young Whig, bat the effort to diminish his majority tailed. Coleman met the fate of Avery, and thence- forth Mr. Vance was supreme west of the Blue Ridge. In Congress he was an active aud watchful member. THe took sides strong ly and labored carnestly against secession, at the same time warning the country a. gainst coercion of the Southern States, by foree of arms. His appeals for the Union in Congress and before the people, were earnest and powerful, but when Sumpter | was fired upon, like nearly all the leading Union men of North Carolina, Badger, Graham, Raffin, Gilmer, and others, be- lieving in the right of revolulion, he cast bis lot with his native State, and took up arms agdinsi the Union. Whatever Mr. Vance does, he does with all his might. He was one of the earliest volunteers, marching to the seat of war in Virginia as a Captain, in May, 18€1. It was not long before his promo- tion came, he having been elected Colonel of the Twenty-sixth Regiment of Nerth Carolina troops, in August, 1861. He was among the brave fighters who drove McClellan to his ships in the James, and he brought his regiment off safely, when Branch’s little army was over- whelmed by Burnside, at Newbern. He shared cheerfully all the hardships and dangers of his men. He was a faithful and gallant. officer, and civilians and soldicrs united in the de- mand, tat he should be the next Govern- or of North Carolina. He was chosen by un overwhelming majority in 1865, and two years later by a similar vote, over the late Governor W. W. Holden. As Governor of North Carolina in those tioublous times, Mr. Vance displayed tal~ ents for which even his most ardent ad- mirers had not given him credit. Blessed with a stroug frame and hardy sonstitu- tion, he was able to go through an incred- ible amount of hard work, mental aud physical. He exhibited administrative and executive powers of the highest order. It became his nate to aid the Confederate Government in securing and maintaining in its armies the military contingent of North Carolina. I: waa likewise his duty to assist, as commander-in-chief of the militia, in repelling invasion of its territo- ry. ltwas his province to execute largely the funetions of a war minister, and when the full history of the war shall be writ- tea, it will be found that he excelled all Southern Governors in vigor and ability in these regards. He kept his State up to the full measure of its obligation under the Constitution of the Contederacy. At the same time, he was watchful tbat there should be uo iufringment of the rights of the State. gles of the war, be insisted that the mili- tary should be subordinate to thé civil powers. It should be known and remem- bered throughout the civilized world that all during the time when the Confederacy was vainly fighting for life, and when one-fourth of the State was everrun by ieee capone ae ness of quotations from the Bible, Shakes In the midst of the very death strug-} ntending armies, the great privilege of the writ of habeas corpus wae nevét su ~ nded. North Carolina_had Bade firm enough to issue that a Governor brave enowgl to, enforce its even in the lines of troops drawn up in order of battle. While Mr. Vanco touk care that there shoul? be no skulkers or deserters. among _ liabe , ander. the esaseript ut jhe per. equal care that) all who claimed they were not liable, should have on their petition and impartiat~ hear- ing before a judicial officer, It was by his efforts likewise that sup- plies of clothing and other needful articles were regularly imported from Engtand through the blockading squadron at Wil- mington. All during 1863 and 1864 the departare and the arrival of The Advance, were watched for with breathless interest by the sobkliers ef North Carolina, whose wants the Confederate Government could net supply. And when in the excitement daring the trial of Wirz for bad treatment of Federal prisoners, an effort was made by enemies of Mr. Vance to connect him with the sufferings at the Salisbur prison, an examination showed that he had been active in alleviating those suffer- ings. During 1864 there tprang up in North Carolina a reactionary party, headed by Holden and others, composed of those who despaired of the suecess of the Con~ federacy. But Gov. Vance took the ground that the power of making peace bad been devolved on that government and that any separate State action would bring not only disgrace, but rain to the State. He therefore struggled with ua-~ faltering constancy for Southern success uatil the surrender of Gen. Johnson to Gen. Sherman. ; He now laid down his high office with dignity, conscious tbat he had done his best, and that the defeat of his plans was the act of God. .He renewed his vows of allegiance to the General Government, determined thenteforward to contribute all that in him lay to the advancement of his native State and the dignity and glo- ry of the Union. He was arrested after the close of the war, aud suffered imprisonment at Wash~ ington, on account of his prominence in the struggle, but on examination of his letter books and other documents it was found that his conduct in tbe struggle was according to the rules of civilized war- fare, and the sentiment of the North being against personal punishment for jreason, he was honorably discharged. ; Gov. Vance then returned to the prac- tice of his profession, making Charlotte his home, In 1870 he was elected Senatoayf the United States, but on account of the disa- bilities imposed by the 14ih amerdment to take his seat. In 1872 he was the nomince of the the election by a coalition between a few friends of Judge Merriman and the Re- publicans,. L. D. from Davidson College in 1867. Gov. Vance is a married man, and has four children. Te is exceedingly lovea- ble in private life, has more warm, perso- nal friends, probably, than any man in North Carolina, He is an especial favor- iie with those excellent judges of a kind heart—ladies and children. Le bubbles over with fun and anecdotes. His mots are quoted throughout the State. “Have you heard Vance’s last?” is a common mode of commencing ajovial conversation. Still he d-es not neglect the serious busi- ness of life. Although he devotes moat of his attention to the study of statecraft and politics inthe large sense, he pre~ pares his law cases well and is a first rate Nisi Prius lawyer. He is distinguished as a lecturer, and is often called on by literary societies and by those desiring to aid charitable institutions by receipts at the door of the Iecture hall. He has found time to read much on historieal, social and political subjects, and has the power of presenting bis views in an attractive and interesting manner, and clothed in strong, sturdy Faglish. In conclusion, we must add, what it would have probably been deemed almost insulting to a public man to have mens tioued in the earlier days of the Republic. that in the course of 80 eventful a_politi- cal life there has never been any charge against Gov. Vance’s integrity. No sus- picion that he has ever ehanged his views in order to receive promotion ; no whisper that the money of any “ring,” railroad or otherwise, has stuck on his palms. He is a fine specimen of a straight-for- ward, bold, plain-spoken, anti-Republi« cau politician, who seeks for his success by convincing the reason and winning the hearts of the people, May his exam~ ple be contagious. As Mr. Vance is a vigorous, live man of forty-three years of age, the country will no doubt see more of him hereafter. His growth ig not yet reached. Important Act.

Lhe ability of the human body to resist the causes of disease depends. upon its vigor and upon the regularity with which the several or- gans perform their functions. In the winter the most prolific sources of sickness are damp and cold, and it is therefore wise and pruden to fortify the systenr against them by whole’ some stimulation. Hence it is that Hostétter’_ Stomach Bitters prove such an admirable safe. guard against the complaints most common at this season. The ingredients of this powerful vegetable invigorant comprise three easentia medicinal elements which act simultaneously upon the digestion, the circulation, the secre- tions, and the nerves, infusing strength and regularity into all. -In this way the Bitters put the body in the best possible condition to escape ar indigestion, or biliousness, or of pulmonary disease. Cold and damp are very depressing ; almost a3 much so as excessive heat, and a pro- | tective medicine is quite as needful in winter |asin summer. The commercial stimulants so | unwiscly taken in the furm of drams to “keep | out the cold,” have a precisely opposite effect | to that produced by Hostetter’s Bitters. Their | first resalt is succeeded by a reaction which de- | vitalizes and prostrates the system ; while, on the other hand, the tonic and vitalizing operation | of the great vegetable invigorant, is not only | immediate but permanent. There is no revul- sion, no reverse nervous action. The physique is strengthened, the appetite increased, the bow- | els regulated, the stomach reintorced, and these | conditions continue. Jf dyspepsia or rheuma- tism, or biliousness, or intermittent fever, or | general debility, or nervous weakness, is pres. | ent in the system, expel it with this pure and harmless antidote, which is not only invaluable as a preventive of sickness, but also a remedy for a large clasa of disorders, KIND WORDS. The Assuciated Reformed Presbyterian says —For years Perry Davis, Pain-Killer has been known as a most useful family medisiue. For pains and aches we know nothing sv good as the Pain-Killer. For mauy internal diseases it is equally good. We speak froin experience, and testify to what we know. No family ought to be without a:bottle of Davie, Pain-Killer. Messrs. Perry DAvis, & Son. Prov R.I., Gents:—Although a stranger to you I am aot to your invaluable medicine, Pain-Killer. I formed its acquaintance in 1847 and I am on most intimate terms with it still; my ex- perience in its use confirms my belief that there is no medicine equal to Pain-Killer for) the quick and sure cure of Summer Com- plaints, Sore Throat. Croup, Bruises and Cuts. I bave used itin all. and found a speedy eure in every case. Yours Truly, T. J. GARDINER M. D. Judging by our own experience whoever once makes atrialof Perry Davis’ Pain- Killer, will not fail to recommend it widely as an unequalled liniment, and valuable in ernal remedy fur colds and various other complaints.—Every Month. , The efficacy of Perry Davis’ world re- nowned Patin-Killer in all diseases of the bowels, even in that terrible scourge, the Asiatic cholera, has been ainply attested by themost conviaciug authority. Missionaries in China and Iudia have written home in commendation of this remedy in terms that should carry conviction to the most skeptical, while its popularity in communities uearer home is ample proof that the virtues claimed for it are real and tangible. Among family mediciues it stands unrivaled.—Boston Courier. The Saturday Even'g Gazette of Boston, says: i: is impossible to find a place on this brvad land where Perry Davis’ PAIN-KILLER t not known as a must vaiubale remedy for physical pain. In the country, miles from physician or apothecary. the Pain-Killer is cherished as the exclusive panacea, and it never deceives. ‘Perry Davis’ Pain-KILLeER is really a valuable medicament, and, unlike most of the articles of the day, is used by many phh- sieians. It is partivularly desirable in loea- tions where physicians are not near ; and by keeping it at hand, families will often save the nececessity of sending out at midnigh for a ductor. A bottle should be kept in every house.”” Boston Traveller. ‘We have tested the Pain-KILLER, and assure oar readers that it not only all the virtues claimed tor it, bat in many instances surpassess any other remedy we have ever know,”’—Herald of Gospel Liber- po rams alarming, and army officers believe that a]. ° . . . 4 on attack of rheumatism, or intermittent fever, ty.

CaRRIED NORTH FOR AUTOPSY Owing to the fact that the sleet inter- rupted telegraphic communication between this clky and Greensboro, we were unable yesterday to furnish our readers with in- formation concerning the movements of the scientific party which visited Mt. Airy for the parpoge of sccaring the bodies ot the Siamese T'wins. Below ‘is a brief letter fiom our correspondent, dated Greensboro, February 4th: The Siamese ‘T'wins arrived here at 10 o’etock A. M. und went north at 1} o'clock P. M., in charge of Drs. Pancoast, Allen aud Andrews. It is supposed they are now the property of the Philadelphia Medical Society,:and they are being taken to Philadelphia foran autopsy and other scientific purposes. The wonderful pair were found well p.eserved, nothwithstanding the reports of hasty interment. The broad chair used by them was also with the party. Itis a common home made splii-bottom affair, about 3} feet wide. What is Farming P Sapa the Rural New Yorker : There are two classes of soxcalled farm- ers. One of these classes says farming does not pay; the other asserts that it does. This suggests the questions : Why is there this difference of opinien? If Julin Johnson or George Gedds, or a seore of other men we could name, phould assert that farming does not pay, we elould be inclined to believe there was something in it! But we never have i they made such an assertion Who dg take the negative of this queas tion Ise Are they men who make agricul- ture @etudy 2? Are men known as mod- el business men and who base their asser- tion uponincontrovertible facta and figures, realized from intelligent, economical and yet liberal treatinent of soils, ercps, live stock, &e.? Can these men give us an definition of farming? We are anxious to be gnlightened on this subject. Will not some onc who believes farming will not pay give us the grounils of his belief, based upon aclear definition of what he means’ by farming, with the facts and figures‘in detail relative to the manage- ment of his farm ? We are anxious to get at the root of this matter—to know wheth. er the reason why farming does not pay certaimymen is due to the soil, climate, locatiemgelative to markets, want of adap- tationrefcrops cultivated to the market dermmaw@; management, railroads, middle men, taxes indolence or ignorance ? Who will be the first to tell us what farming is and why it will not pay ? eS Grae Greenwood, in a recent Washx ingtomester, tells a little story of a fami- ly of Missouri “crackers,” careless, sbift~ less, awd intolerably lazy, the daughters if whith Were accnstomed to go barefoot, till the Boles of their feet became hard like uggo horn.

We receive so many inquires as to the laws governing the circalatioa of newspapers, that we find it necessary to publish the fullowing summary, which will cover all the questions that have been addressed to us ; 1. Subscribers are considered wishing to continue their subscription. 2. If subscribers ordering the discontinance of their periodicals may continne to send them unti! all arrearages are paid. 3. If anbscribers neglect 0. refuse to take their periodicals from the office to which they are directed, they are held responsible till they have settled their bill, and urdered them discontinued. 4. If subscribers move to other places without iuforming the publishers, and the papers are sent to the former direction, they are held respovsible. 5. The cvurts have decided that refusing to take papers from the office, or removing and leaving them unealled for, is prima facie evidence of intentional fraud. 6. Any person who receives a newspaper and makes use of it, whether he has ordered it or not.is held inlaw, to be asubseriber and must pay fur it. POSTAL iXNFORMATION.

We claim and can show that it is the CHEAP- EST, inost beautiful, delicately arranged, nicely adjusted, easily operated, and smoothly running, | of all the Family Sewing Machines. It is re- markable not only for the range and variety of its sewing, but also for the variety and different kinds of texture which it will sew with equal facility and perfection, using silk twist, linen or cotton thread, fine or coarse, making the INTER- LOCK ED-ELASTIC-STITCH, alike on both sides of the fabric sewn. Thus, beaver cloth, or leather, may be sewn with great strength and uniformity of stitch; and, in a moment, this willing and never-wearying instrument may be adjusted for fine work on gauze or gossamer tissue, 01 se tucking of tarlatan, or ruffling, or almost any other work which delicate fingers have been known to perform. . And with its simplicity of construction; ease of operation; uniformity of PRECISE action at any speed; capacity for range and variety of work, fine or coarse—leaving all rivals behind it. We with pleasure refer the public to the Gold and Bronze Medals and Diplomas awarded to onr Machines in America, Prussia, England, and recently in Austria at the Exposition in Vienna, where we were awarded five Medals, Merit, Pro- gress, and three for articles manufactured on our Machines.

Katharine Forsyth was a brave woman, else 1 should not have this story to write, but the terrible wildness of the night, the furious lashing of the rain, the roar of the angry sea, made her falter for a moment | upon the threshold before going out. ‘The ‘wind in that one moment whirled past === (her, and blew open the half shut library door, bringing her father from the room to see what had happened. “Katharine, you are not going out?” in amazement. ‘Y e8: 5 There was certainly no hesitation in her voice, and something in her eyes made her father careful of his next words. “Let me go if it is a mecessary er« rand.” ~ “It is a necessary errand, but one which my father would not wish to at- | tend to," she said, with her eyes looking ‘straight into his. “A messenger brought | ine word five, minutes since that Courtney | Alcott’s vessel was up® the rocks at Bay | Stone Point.” “You will do nothing unwomanly, I trust,” Mr, Forsyth said, in real alarm now, as he took his rubber coat from the rack, and hastily slipped it on. “You had better not go, father, if you | are afraid of me,” she said quietly as be- fore, though he saw well enough that it was a forced quiet, “for I am afraid of myself to-night. Que thing is certain, if Captain Alcott lives to see me again, he will know that I love him, and that it was no fault of mine that he thought different lv six months ago.” “ Mr. Forsyth fairly groaned. He had been so sure of her, and so certain only this very evening that she would accept his plans for uniting the houses and the lands of the Forsyths and the Holworths, but now this plebian, that he hated as he hated poison, must come again between him and his most cherished hopes. There are times when such a thing as authority in a parent is uot, and cannt be thought of. ‘his was his time. He mast go with ker, and while her face held that awful look, if he was a wise man, there would be little said. It was a full mile to the Point, and they started out, silent and anxious. He hoped in his heart that the vessel would go to atoms, though he dared not think that he hoped so, though as he strode on beside his quiet daughter, he had some doubts whether that event would mend the matter in the end. Katharine had, from her young girlhood—sbe was now twenty-three—been a most incomprehen- sible person to those who knew her best, and a year back she had reached the cli, max of incomprehensibility by accepting, tacitly, the alinost reckless adoration of Captain Alcott, who cared as little for her aristocratic blood as any man living, but who would almost, if not quite, have laid down his life, if need be, for the love of this woman. Katharine’s father had managed to sce him alone when he came to make his last call before sailing, and in reply to the Captain’s question if he would entrust bis daughter to his keeping, Mr. Forsyth answered him that he could not, because other plans were matured for her--that Katharine was engaged to-day—would he excuse her? and had bowed him out with all the politeness of an earl, and the Captain bad gone off to sea, cursing the proud father who had stood between him and the dearest hope he had ever had, and almost cursing the proud daughter too. Mr. Forsyth had told his daughter of the interview, told every particular, with- out comment, because he was a little a- fraid not to let her known it, and she had received the intelligence with equal reti- cence, which the father hoped augured well, though for the life of him he could not tell whether it did or whether it did not. To-night he knew for a certainty where his daughter’s heart was, and he knew as well that he had little to hope for unless Providence should favor him by opening the door into the next world for this suis tor of bis daughter. As they emerged from the grove of pines which skirted the beach, the spray began to cut their faces sharply, and the whole fury of the storm scemed to strike them as it had not done before. “Tt isa dreadful night, Katharine.— you had best return.” * “Hush!” Her voice was sharp and strained. “I had rather by far drown in this huugary ocean here, than live to know that he had gone down.” She-did not usually go to her father or any one else with her heart-secrets, but to-night she would Lave spoken to any one who had been near’ her, with little heed as to who that person was. ‘The wregkers were gathered upon the sand with boats, ropes, life-preservers, everything needful, but nothing was be- ing done, nothing -eould be done, they told Mr. Forsyth, and all the while came, boom! boom! boom! from the guns of the ill-fated vessel upon the rocks, around which the sea was tugging, and drawing and surging as if eager to swallow it up aud be done with it at once. Katharine left her father’s side and went up to one of the bravest men. “How san you stand here! Is no one ready to go with you?” she asked. “Yes, we bo all ready cnough, Miss, but the good Lord help the man who goes out to-night.” Katharine said not another word, but thanking the “good Lord” that she knew how to handle both a boat and a pair of oars, she slipped through them, and before any one knew it, she had unfastened a boat, was in it, and going out swiftly on a reecding wave towards the rocks aud — him. The light flared upon white faces c- nough when they found that a woman had gone out alone, and Mr. Forsyth ALL IS WecLL THAT ENDS| ‘triumph over all obstacles. =" Suex . 2 gasped for breath, and nearly fain- ted when he really believed that it was true. \ The rest of that long night—and it seemed as if morning would uever come —they paced up and down the beach, while the storm raged on, for not a man would follow the mad woman, though Mr. Forsyth offered them more money than most of them had ever seen at once in all heir lives, if they would make the at- tewpt. He could not row himself, ‘and so, half-crazed, knowing now how well he loved his child, he had to endure as best he might the horrors of that time, which his heart told him would end in certain death. One such honr will teach us more of ourselves, than a common life~ time. Oh, if he had his treasure for one poor half hour now, how he would take hrer-to’his heart. They had distrusted each other for many days, but there was love, boundless stores of it, in the depths of their hears for each other, he knew, and as he wrung his hands in an agony of despair, and cried out for his child, the rough men felt their own hearts breaking up, though they could not help him. | At last, as the morning began to dawn, a life-boat was thrown upon the shore, scattering its freight of half lifeless bo- dies, some intu the sea and some upon the land; but it was not Katharine’s boat, and neither she or the Captain were found among the number. There was work enough to do now; and it was done with a right good will.— The first one that could speak said that all of the crew had left the ship ; that the Captain had gone last—where or how none of them knew, tnough one of them said after a time that he had a kind of half recolection of hearing the Captain cry out: ‘My God! Katherina!” as he swung himself over the side of the ship ; but he could tell nothing certainly, as there had been much confusion when the ship be- gan to go to pieces. In the middle of the forenoon, the storm had abated; when another boat made its way into the bay With Captain Alcott on board ; bat, though be thought he had seen Katharine the night before, he believed it to have been his imagina-~ tion, and knew nothtng of her énly what they bad told Lim, that she had gone out to save him ‘rom death. In an hour after he had landed, he, with Mr. Forsyth, had taken a steam tug and were off after the woman who was probably lying at that moment many fathoms deep bencath the crael waves. Captain Alcott kept his own lookout ; and he had both Heaven and Hell in his head during that dreadful search —for, if he did not find her, and lis reason told him that it was the mereat folly to hope for such a thing, he would never forgive the man who kept so close beside him at every turn, and whose worn, haggard face was enough to move a heart of stone to pity. : Bat, if he did find her—if God would but hear and answer this, the most terri» bly-in-earnest prayer that he had ever uttered in his life, it would make him a changed man for all time. ‘We make such vows in-these dire straits which overtake us now and then, the worse for us if we do not keep them. The sun Legan to get low in the Wes~ tern horizon, and yet nothing. Would it be in vain? Could he give her up now, just as he was certain of her love, and upon the very threshold of what might be bliss? His eyes were straining far a- round in every direction, the hope and despair alternating in them, making them dreadful to see. He was a strong main, but strong men love with a fearful inten-~ sity sometimes, and love over a_ possible and probable grave is always more or less terrible. At last, after another hour, he gave such a start that Mr. Forsyth caught him, thinking he was about to plunge overboard. : “Do you see that?” he said, his face white as ashes, pointing off toward what seemed to be a mere speck upon the water. Then came the command: “More steam on! Straight ahead !”’ As for s\atharine, God took care cf her as he does of us all when everything buy man fails. She had somehow outlived the stormy night, and though she was drifting help-~ lessly out to sea, her oars had been lost long betore, she was alive, and kept up a faint courage until she knew that help was coming. When they lifted her on boaid, she lay like one dead, and for hours afterward she only repeated delir- ously in answer te either her father or her lover; You will let him drown! You will all let him drown ? By the time Mr. Forsyth saw bis daughter really sayed, he was quite ready that she should become Mrs. Captain Al- cott, and as “All is well that ends well,” the lesson was a good one for him, and one certainly not likely to be soon for- gotten. ee Genius Triumphs. The more strongly marked the genius, the greater is the waste of power. that must ensue froma mistake as to the vo- cation. What would have been the loss to humanity had Shakespeare been forced to practice medicine, Walter Scott to study law, and Dickens to become a mer- chant; had Newton been induced to be- come a soldier, or Washington a school- master? On the other hand what might not have been our gain lad the special genius of all our great men been fostered and nourished from the beginnjng, if their education had been directed to its develop- ment, and if they had never been led by mistaken ideas to waste time upon mas- ters utterly foreign to their special mis~ sion?

Mr. Beecher preached Sunday evening (15th) upon the difficulty of acquring correct religious habits, and the compara- tive ease of maintaining them when once they have become second nature. “Many look upon religion,” he said, as an insur- ance policy against fival loss by fire.” He described that kind of religion so funnily that the congregation laughed outright, “They go to church every Sunday,” he said, pulling his coat close around him, drawing his face down dolor- ously, and rolling up his eyes. ‘“ The hymns are doled out to them, a good, sound, dry sermon -is preached to them, and the most eloquent passage of all ia | their going out. ‘They attend prayer | meetings, too—most dismal prayer mects | ’ Here his lower jaw dropped, more | of the whites of his eyes showed, and his | hands were clasped before him. “‘Lhere | are some comfortable things in Greenwood, | but none in one of these prayer meetings. | : ’ ngs. They go through the exercises solemnly, and the brethren try to to say something —they do say the same things they have been saying twenty years. ‘hen the servics are mercilesely cut short, and they go gloomily home.” After describing true religion as some- | thing independent of forms and catechisms, ' Mr. Beecher illustrated process of its prac- | tical acquirement. He held an invisible | fiddle, fingering the straings with one! hand, drawing the bow with the other, and adjusting the imaginary instrument under his chin, while he said: “Have | you ever seen a boy trying to Jearn to| fiddle ? I don’t wonder they call those strings catgut. I should say the spirits of all the dead old cats were in them. But when the boy masters it—’’ stopping short he commenced to fiddle gracefully like a | good violinist. ‘Then he showed how a nfan learus to set type, the desk farnish- | ing the case, from which he slowly and awarkwardly carries the letters to a sup- positions composing stick, spelling out audibly s-h-h-a-d. When the congregation had stopped laughing, he gave the rapid motions of the same man afier his trade had been learned. ‘I was taught elocu- | tion,” he said, ‘although you might not | think it. I was drilled in all the gestures, and struck the attitudes in awkward but rapid succession, and then did them grace- fully, in the style of a speaker to whom they had become habitual and unstrained. “When we try to be gracefal,” he said, “we can’t be. All those things come by long and persistent usage, and then with- out thought. In the country where a beard six inches wide is laid in the mud, aman‘will walk it without effort aud never step off”) ‘I'aking his place at one side of the platform, he walked easily in an exaci line to the other side, with, his hands in his pockets and his eyes wander- ing carelessly. ‘‘Now,” he went on, ‘put that board at a height of fifteen feet, and | not one man in a dozen can walk the | length of it without falling off.” ‘Taking , hia position as before, he fixed hjs eyes in| front of him as thought on the elevated | board, looked scared, and commenced the , imaginary passage. Wavering and bal- ancing, with his arms extended, he with difficulty got half way across, and stum- bled as though falling. ‘The people laugh- ed out loud at the elaborately pertect pantomime. The greatest hit, however, was the droll mimicry of a miser, who resolved upon reform and began.by releasing a mortgage on @ poor man’s farm. ‘The counterfeilt severity of the miserin demanding pay ment the fright of the debtor, the blanduess of the miser in presenting the cancelled document, aud the joyous antics of the debtor’s wife and children, were all pro-~ duced with the skill of a trained comedian. Finally, when Mr. Beecher, as the reform. ed miser, with a benevolent smile on his face, mounted his horse and, rode off— bending his parted knees and swaying his | body in exact imitation of a rider, and, cutting behind with amaginary whip— everybody laughed uutil the tears came. ' made it a specialty. \ ‘ ‘ FEBRUARY 26, 1874. The Baltimore Gazette referring to address of the National Grange, publis i el in these columhs yesterday, says: “The address of the National Grange convened at St. Louis, day in oureolumns, is a remarkably strong document. It is quite singular in a fash- ton ia which it should not be singular—it contains very little chaff and a great deal of wheat. It is noticeable for its common sense. The tone is faniliar, while digni- fied, and is that of a body cons<ions of its strength. It ignores politics, but politic~ ians had better keep out of its way. It is going to bea power. It is going to hold the balauce rn the next Prideegal election! It bas already partially revo- lutionized the-West both industrially and politically. is that the addrees is withont sectional Jealousy or one word that can wound.— Its advice to the South was drawn up by Southern men, and heartily endorsed by every member of the order. It sets forth as the true policy of the South just what every friend of that section has been ure ging upon it for years, and yet che South itself has been too dull to receive it.— Raise home crops, not exclusively cotton, but corn, wheat, potatoes ; feed hogs and cattle of all kinds; raise poultry where the negroes will allow it, and be free from dependence on others.” The New York Zribune thus s the same resolutions: “Phe declaration of principles put forth by the National Granze, at St. Louis, is certainly a striking and able document. ‘I'he aims and objects of the Patrons of Husbandry, as _ therein stated, are designated tu harmonize capital and labor, promote the greatest good of the greatest number, and clothe the brother- hood with all the elements of the highest manhood and citizenship. If the Gran- gers will live up to this admirable decla- ration, they will confer a lasting benefit on the whoie country. peaks of —_+~-_____ Tae Mormon QveEsTroN BEFORE ConGRess.—The memorial of the non Mormon ciiizens of Utih, which is now betore the Committee on Territories” pre~ rents the whole Mormon question in a forcible light. ‘lhe Mormons are evi- dently alarmed, for Mr. Cannon, the Delegate from Utah, presented a petition from the Legislature of that Territory yesterday, asking for a committee of ins vestigation beiore any legislative action be taken with regard to Utah. The ob- ject of this petition, no doubt, is to stave off the crisis that is inevitable. The gen- eral facts are well known both to Con- gress and the country. Here is a com- munity which lives in open violation of the common law and morality of the Re- public, and even in violation of the stats ute law, and that makes allegiance to the Utah priesthood superior to that due to the government of the country. The question must be met and disposed of and there is danger in delay.--N. Y.

Mrs. Foley became Phillip’s surety. Mary O’Brien, the victim of these men, is punished by being locked up in the House of Detention, and as it is the rule of the District Attorney’s office to try prison cases, or those in which the accused are in prison, in preference to bail cases, no one can tell when Mary O’Brien’s term of imprisoument will ecase. Here is a striking contrast. Phillips, the accessory to a brutal offense, is set at liberty on paltry bail, while this young girl is kept a close prisoner in the House of Detention to testify against him in the fullness of time after the cup of the laws’ delay is full—N.

But this is not the case, as will be seen from the following statements of fatts : If one dollar be invested and the inter- est added to the principal annually, at the rates named, we shall have the Rilowing result at the accumulation ef one handred years : $1, Agnes at 1 per ct.,, $23 7 194 “ 6 « 3404 en. 2,203 re 5,443 “#10 13,809 “120 84,675 oS is 1,174,405 ce 18 « 15,145,007 cc “cs 24 e cb 2,551, 789,404 There are probably few, however, familiar with the subject of the increase of capital put on interest, who would not be startled at the statement that the cost of the outfit of Christopher Columbus in hie first voyage of discovery, put at interest at 81X per cent., would by this time have amounted to more than the entire money value of the Continent, together with the accumulations from the industry of all who have lived upon it. . Estimating the entire outfit to have eost ouly the small sum of five thousand dollars, and remembering that money doubles at six per cent. in little less than 12 years—or, accurately, 11 years, 10 months, and 21 days. Allowing it to double every twelve years, at interest at six per cent. since 1492, it will be feund, would ,have amounted to $17,895,700,- 000,000, which, estimating the population of the entire Continent of America (North aud South) to be 85,000,000, or 17,000,- 000 families, (averaging five members each) would give more than a million of dollars as the possession of every one of these. The interest upon a million of dollars at six per cent. is sixty thousand dollars, which would be the princely an- nual income of each of these 17,000,000 families, from the accumlation up to this time upon so small a sum as that uamed for the outfit of the discoverer, In Hidreth’s “ History of the United States,’ itis stated that Manhattan Island —afterward called New Amsterdam, now the city of New York, was brought by the Dutch from Indians for sixty guilders, or twenty~four dollars ($24), and this ouly about 200 years ago. Aud yet, if the purchasers could have securely placed that $24 where it would have added to the principal annually, interest at the rate of seven per cent. the accumlation would exceed the present market value of all this real estate of the city and county of New York. Again, if a man at the age of 25, should commence business with a capital of one hundred thousand dollars, aud could by any possibility add thereto interest at our legal rate of seven per cent. annually, the result would be (in round numbers) as follows : AGE.

It is plain, therefore, that the great mistake most men make is in attempting to use the borrowed capital at an immensely high rent, ordinarily termed interest, which, by the use of gold, as currency, is often foreed still higher. While the growth of the national wealth remains at the pre- sent rate, the average man who attempts to pay even seven per ccut. for all the capital he can get, should not expect to avoid bankruptcy as the result. ——_ - + +e —_— DeryiInc THE Brzzarnpvs.—A fellow who was in the habit of getting drunk whenever he went to town, in returning home one day, fell from his horse and was qitiet as though dead.

Custom- ere, like sheep, are gregarious, and flock where they sce others go. If nobody else were engaged in the same business, it would be important to tradesmen and dealers to advertise in the paper, because people are tempted to buy what they read of. But others are engaged in the same business, aud even if they do not advertise, it becomes the more important for you to do so; if they do advertise i¢ becomes doubly important — Anon.

It gives more thoroughly the eondition of that negro-robbed and impoverished State than anything we haye yet seen. Says the Courier : An Appeal to the Press.—There is one small yet very important service which the newspaper press of the whole country can and ought to render to the plundered and oppressed people of this prostrate State. It is to enlighten the pablic every- where as to the real issue in the approach- ing covtestin South Carolina. It is high time that it should be known of all men that this is going to be no battle of Demo- crat against Republican, or of Conserva- tive against Radical. Itis simply the desperate struggle of a brave and impov- ished people to save the remnant of their property from a grang of remorseless rob- bers.

A mouse tbat dwelt near the abode of a great magician was kept in such constant dis~ tress by its fear of a cat, that the magician, taking pity on it, turned it into a cat itself. Immediately it began to suffer from its fear of a dog, so the magician turned it into a dog. ‘Then it began to saffer from fear of a tiger, and the magician turned it, intoa tiger. Then it began to suffer from fear of a huntsman, and tho magician in disgust said, “Be a mouse again. As you have only the heart of a mouse, it is im- possible to held you by giving you the body of a nobler animal.” And the poor creature again became a mouse. It is the same with a mouse hearted man. He may be clothed with the pow- ers, and placed in the position of brave men, but he will always act like a mouse; public opinion is usually the great magici- an that finally says to such a person : “(ro back to your obscurity again.

The last news fram Scotland is that a “Christian Convention for Scotland” was held iu Edinburgh on.

The dreadtul scalpel was first used on the connecting band between the two brothers. The abdominal cavities were entered for the purpose of examining the viscera. ‘This investigation was attended with most gratifying results, and the physicians were rewarded in their efforts in finding that the lungs, heart, panereas, liver, spleen and alimentary canal were excellently developed in each, and that of ordinary mortals.

Many reported that they had adopted the plan of throwing the meetings open, and re- ceiving requests for prayer in our Ameri- can fashion. One hour was given toa discussion of ‘The Young.” and it was very solemn and earnest. Messrs. Moody and Sankey spent a day at Berwick~on~ Tweed, ang Dr. Cairns said that the day was such as never had been seen before in that place in the memory of its inhabi- tants. On the Sabbath after, in Edi, burgh, the old parish church of the Canon- gate was crowded.by upwards of two thousands persons. On the same day a morning prayer meeting was held in the Assembly Hall of the Free Chureb, and the requests for prayer came from all parts of the hall, and many were converted.

In this way the Bitters put the body in the best possible condition to escape on attack of rheumatism, or intermittent fever ar indigestion, or biliousness, or of pulmonary disease.

In December, 1872, the Grand Lodge of Masons ordered the opening of an Asy- e, D. D., of lum, at Oxford, for the protection, train | ing and education of indigent and promis: }ing Orphans. Several weeks were occu- pied with necessary preparations, and, In | February, 1873, the work began. Some | foresaw nothing but failure, and predicted that spontaneous donations would not austain euch an institution. Oihers des i termined that se faras its success depend. 'ed on them, their whole duty should be performed. Lodges, Churches, Benevo-~ ‘lent Socicties and liberal individuals have supported it by comfortable clothing and faithful instruction will make them iutel- ligetit and useful citizens. ‘he laws of ithe land afford but little pretection to Ore | phang, and the hard hand ot avarice often ‘holds them in sad and shamefui slavery. | Legislators disregard their appeals. Or-~ |phans cannot vote, their fathers are all dead, and the rich scldom espouse the |cause of their poor relations. Careful |observation has shown that, by close | economy, each Orphan may be fed, clothed and taught for five dollars a month. In | order that different sections of the State 'may be represented, and the most urgent and most needy applicants may be admnit- ted, about two hundred Orphans should be kept in the Asylum. ‘Their expenses ‘will amount to twelve thousand dollars a 'year. ‘l’o the ensure permanence of the | iustitution and the continuance of its work, there onght to be some provisions fer its support for at least five years.

In the United States Senate, Friday, the vote of Mr. Merrimou’s amendment, instructing the Finance Committee to res port a bill providing for the increase of the national bauk circulation to $400,000,000_ was agreed to as follows: Yxeas—Meessrs. Allison, Boreman, Bo- , Cameron, Clayton, Conover, Ferry, of Yieigan, Goldthwaite, Horsey, Hitch- co¢u, Howe, Johnson, Logan, McCreery, Mérrimon, Mitchell, Morton, Norwood, Oglesby, Vatterson, Pease, Pratt, Ramsey, Robertson, Spencer, Sprague, Tipton and West—28.

A special to the Baltimore Sun says : The debate on the question of inflation or non-inflation has been dragging along very wearily for many days past, but to- day when the struggle culminated in the vote on Mr. Merrimon’s proposition the excitement displayed was equally as great as if some important political question was about to be decided. Senatora gath- ered around the desk while the roll wag being called, and watched closely every vote. Extreme Democrats like ExsCon- federate (:eneral Gordon, of Georgia, were found on the same side with such extreme Radicals as Governor Morton, of Indiana. Never since the reconstruction has the spectacle been witnessed of Democrats add Republicans laboring so earnestly to- gether. Lut nive of the Democratic Sen- ators can be found in the negative on the main propositions for inflation which have been brought before the Senate. These are the two Delaware Senators, Bayard and Salisbury ; Mr. Hamilton, of Mary- land; Mr. Davis of West Virginia; Mr. Kelly, of Oregon ; Mr. Hager, of Califor~ nia; Mr. Stockton, of New Jersey; Mr. Cooper, of Tennessee ; and Mr. Stevenson, of Kentucky. a Don’t Give Liquor TO CHILDREN. —One ofthe first literary men in the United States said to a writer, after speak- ing on the subject of temperance :— “There is one thing which, as you visit diferent places, I wish you to do every- wiiere, this 1g to entreat every mother never to give a drop of strong drink toa ehjtd, 1 have had to fight as for my life alt@iy days to keep from dying a drunk- ard, because I was fed with spirits when achild: I acquired a taste for it. My bee or fellow, died a drunkard. I woil! oH iiave achild of mine take a deop.of liquor for anything. Waru every er, wherever }ou go, never to give a drop toa child.” ee ape Seventy years ago the Rev. Dr. Lyman Beecher, father of Henry Ward Beecher, was paid asalary of $300 and his fire- Wood, WOMEN’S LOVE. As Gertrude Von Der Warts sat bum- ming the cradle-hymn which bad tailed her babe asleep, she heard the tramp of men in the court-way of the castle. Suddenly the door was opened, ahd armed men rushed rudely into the apart- ment, where Love sat guarding Innocence. “Your husband, sata, and yoar brouh er\-where have you bid them?” asked the chief of the band of soldiers, in menac- ing tones, as he rudely clutched the shink- ing women by the arm. Her women’s instinct at once divined that those she loved were in danger, and she answered, in trembling tones : “Indeed, sir, I know not. I have not seen them.” “Wife and sister of the murderers, tell the truth!” he replied savagely. “Oar queen—Agnes, of Hungary, the daughter of our murdered Emperor Albert—has sent us, with the sword of vengeance, to bunt, to the ends of the earth, for the men who have taken her father’s life. On them and their children shall fall the punish- ment.” “Merciful Heaven!” gasped out Gert- rude, as the dreadful news broke upcn her, ‘has the Emperor been killed? Oh, sirs ! my husband and my brother had no hand in the cruel deed !” ‘‘Prate not with the woman,” said one of the soldiers. ‘Do our queen’s bidding. There is the child.” In an instant, the mother, wild with terror, flew to the sleeping babe. It awoke, it stretched ont its arms to her. She attempted to take it, but a eword gleamed between her and the infant. “No! no!” she screamed, in thrilling tones of agony and fear; “take not my child from me! Kill me, if you will, but oh ; by the love you bear your own little ones, save this innocent babe! Kill me, but spare my child!” Intent on their bloody purpose. the sol- diers heeded not the cries of agony which went up from the mother’s heart, as plung- ing their swords iuto the child, they tramp- ed out of the room with heavy steps, and mounting their horses, galloped away from the castle. There are moments in life so full of agony that it seems as if haman nature must sink and expire under the frightful ordeal. Such moments had come to Gert- rude Von Der Wartz, as stunned by the horrid deed, shestood, speechless, by the poor little victim of woman’s revenge. All that night, sad and silent, she sat beside her dying babe ; and when morning broke over the earth, low wails went up from the room where mourned the child- less woman. T’o reach her husband was now the one wisb of Gertrude. The tie that bound her to the secluded castle was broken—her child was dead. But she was a prisoner in her house ; tor a guard had been placed around the castle to prevent the escape of her husband and brother, in case they should be secreted there. Eluding the vigilance of the soldiers, however, she escaped. The news of her husband’s arrest and imprisooment had reached her, and, urged on by the most devoted love, she made her way to the royal chatean. Throwing herself, in an agony of grief, at the feet of the widowed Empress Elizabeth and her daughter Agnes, she exclaimed : “Spare him! ob, spare my busband ! He is innocent of the crime of which he is accused! My only child has been slanghtered by your soldiers ; let one vie- tim suffice ; spare me—oh, spare mejmy husband !” The frantic prayer fe!l on stony hearts. Silent and stern sat the queen and her daughter. There was no pity in their breasts—no tenderness in their words. Repulsed and driven from the royal resideuce, Gertrude hovered around the prison that contained her husband. As Death drew near, Love grew stronger, and supported her fainting epirit in the dark valley of the shadow of woe through which it was passing. Though strong her love and unwearied her efforts to save her husband, sbe could not avert the fearful doom that awaited him; and it was with a heart of agony that she heard the dreadful sentence—To be broken on the wheel / The fatal day arrived, and the young and handsome Baron de Wartz, was re- moved from bis prison, and stretched on the scaffold to have his limbs broken on the wheel. Silently the sympathizing crowd stood around to witness the dreadful spectacle. “Stand back!” said a voice, “and let her pass.” The crowd made way, as Gertrude at» tired in mourning—pale, but still beauti- ful—slowly advanced, and throwing her~ self at the feet of the executioner, cried out, in piteous tones : ‘Have mercy on me and let me stay with my husband to support him through his dreadful trial !” Her prayer was anewered, and ascend- ing the scaffold, she placed herself beside the victim, who turned his eyes upon her with looks of love and gratitude that haunt- ed her ever after.”’ Silent, almost crushed by agony, ready to shriek out as the blows descended on her husband, she yet stood resolute and firm, while the crowd looked on in tears. When the executioner had finished his dreadful task, the multitude disa, peared, leaving Gertrude alune with the dying man. The night came on, covering the earth with darkness, and the devoted wife crept under the wheel on which her husdand was extended. Through all that long night there she sat, soothing him, and assuring him of her belief in bis innocence, Thus passed three days and nights, and, on the third night, the sufferer said faint~ 2 : “Leave me my darling, and take some rest.” She kiesed him tenderly, and, wiping the drops of agony from his brow » Te- plied : “Love needs no rest | there is no rest for me !” That night was ons of intense agony to the martyr. Great drops of anguish start- ed from every : As tne footk merola dawned, the vie- tim expired, looking the gratitude and love that he had not the strength to speak. The wife’s mission of love had ended ; and, kissing the pale face upturned to hers, with feeble steps she wended her way to the convent, the superior of which was the sister of her husband. “Room for me, sisters,” was all she eould say, as, fainting, she fell at the threshold of the door. The nuns took in the emaciated creas ture; and the convent gates closing on Gertrude Von Der Wartz, all that the world henceforth kuew of her was this ead story of her love and “fidelity unto eath.’’ Away from you ——___3 0 e—___—_ A REPTILE IN A LADY’S STOMACH. It Comes Up Into Her Throat. There is a young lady living within a mile and a quarter of Christiana, who is afflicted as singularly as was the celebra- ted Miss Godsey, the “Sleeping Beauty.” Fer four years part she has been suffering with violent fainting spells, that comes on periodically, and are produced by some kind of reptile which comes up into her throat, She is choked to such an extent that her mnscles become rigid, her ex~- tremities cold, the pupils of her eyes dilated, and the skin breaks on her hands and face, and in all other particulars, thoroughly convulsed. She is only re~ lieved by the reptile itself, being, it is thought, partially choked, withdrawing itself into the stomach. The reptile has af previous times been seen by different persons. On one occa- sion a Methodist preecher was visiting at the home of her parents, when she was seized with one of the usual attacks, and the parisitical object even came out of her mouth and was grasped by the minister. Being of a very superstitious turn of mind she had conceived the idea that its death was her death, and refused to have it re~ moved, although that could at that time have been easily accomplished. ‘The minister avowed that the reptile felt as cold and clammy as any other snake, but that it offered no particular resistarve when he clutched it with his hand. When it made its appearance outside the mouth it eurled its head rather under the chin, when let loose went immediately down the young lady’s throat agin. It fre- uently comes up into the mouth, and ihe young lady says that whenever it does so it appears to lick the roof of her mouth with its horrible tongue, and then recedes again. A neighboring physician has been at- tending her daring the period of her in- disposition, and has been treating her for tape-worm, believing that to be the trne malady, ‘The symptoms are, however entirely different from those produced by tape-worm. The girl still continues ro- bust, instead of being ravenous, is fickle, at times scarcely taking any food, while at other times she has a very good appe- tite. The strongest tape.wrom remedies were used, but without any effect what- ever, and the physician, thinking the case hopelees, gave it up a short time ago, when two others were called in, who are using every means in their power to effect a cure, with what result remains to be seen. The first step to be taken was to disabuse her mind of the superstitions that had taken possession of her in regard to her disease. She has at last consented to have the monster removed, if possible, and destroyed, as she is now convii.c:d that her life depends on it. The _physi- cians in attendance are anxiously await- ing an opportunity to effect a removal, and are keeping constant watch for the appearance of the reptile. Alcohol has already been prepared for the reception, so.that, when it shall be displaced, so strange a phenomonon may be preserved. The reptile, so far as has been ascer- tained, is about half an inch in diameter, of a dark color, with a sort of hairy coat- ing, but no one is capable of judging of its length. It has never been so closely scrutinized by any one as to tell whether it has eyes, but that, we be- lieve, is hardly possible. All that is yet known of it is that it frequently comes up into her mouth, choking the girl and throwing her into terrible convulsions. It is attracting universal attention about Christiana, and all the, more 80, becanse her life has been seriously threatened by the peculiar movements of the reptile.— Nashville Banner. ——_~- THE S1amese Twins AND THE ScI-~ ENCE OF MownstTRostrixs.—A_ corres- ndent of the Tribune, writing from hiladelphia concerning the delayed au~ topsy, says That the Siamese twins are an oridnary example of monstrous formations, or rath- er the class of monstrosities to which these twins belong, is well known in medi- eal science. Dr. Wm, Goodell, of our aviversity, delivered a lecture on the monstrosities, reported in the Afedical Times of this city, in which he goes over the whole subject, and says that since 1549 there have been issued from the press over three hundred works and pamphlets on this subject, and of double moneters there are recorded over five hun- dred cases. Early in the last century Haller rescued the subject of monsters from the idle speculations of the ignorant, and raised it to the dignity of a seience. splendid work apon “Tertology,” as he termed it—a compound werd derived from feras, “‘a monster.” and logos, “a diss course.” By careful disseetions. and numerous comparisions, St. Hiligre found that all the monsters followed certain laws of development in harmony with those of embryology, and were, in fact, capable even of classification. The science of “double monster,” or diploteratology, has been carefully elaborated by one of our own countrymen, Dr. G. J. Fisher of Sing Sing, New Yerk. According to him, the genesis of double mo@sters is not an aceident or a mere freak of nature, but the out of an obedience to three invariable jaws. : The total collections rnal revenue at Greensboro’, N.O., in January were $86,370,50, and in February, to 11th in~ stant, $39,834.93. a. Gen. Gordon in his great speech in the U.S. Senate on the 20th of January, thus ably vindicated’ the combinations among the Farmers of the West and South : Sir, it is high time the agriculture of both the South and the West were reliev- ed of 25 per cent., money. It is high time that the agricultural interest, which is the foundation of all other interests, should have some special attention of this Government. Both the South and the West are prostrate. With money to the farmer at 18 to 25 per cent., with cotton below the cost of production at such a pei cent., for money, which grain unable to pay its freights to market, with a finan- cial system which places the productions of the conntry at the mercy of speculators, which in the striking language of the gifted Frenchman, Le pay, is “the art of oppressing the people,” is any wonder that this interest has at last aroused to a sense of the danger and has combined for its protection. Why should it not combive ? Has not every other interest combined? Is not the money power of the country combin- ed, and did it not dictate the financial policy of 1862, which has brought such disaster to the producer, and does it not even at this very hour while I appear, by its delegations from Boston, from New York, and elsewhere block the doors of this Chamber to influence the yote of this body ? Labor cumbines, aud receives at the hands of the Government an eigh- hour law. The fisheries combined, and received from the Government a ment a bounty. Manufacturers combine, and re- ceive a high protective tariff ‘The iron- mongers combine and, unlike the farmer's pigs which must be fed fromffhis own crib, they have their iron-pigs fattened at the cotton crib. Railroads combine, and by Government bounties and Government giants they scale the mountains and link with bands of steed our eastern and west- ern oceans. But, sir, this great interest, which lies at the foundation of all other interesta ; this interest, without which no other interest can survive; this interest, which numbers among its subjects near 25,000,000 of the 49,000,000 of the popu lation of this country ; this interest, which bears on its Atlantean shoulders of wealth, the commerce, the manufactures, and the very civilization of the country, has to day less influence in shaping the legisla~ tion of the country than the fishers of salty cod-fish on the shores ef New Eng- land. Sir, it is time, I repeat, that this here changed ; it is time that agriculture was heard. me Drinking Warm Blood. [Boston Journal. } Mention was made recently of a gen-~ tleman in a very feeble state of health, who had been for some time at the Butch- ers Abatteir in Brighton for medical treatment, simply drinking a half tum~ blerful of warm blood twice a day. ‘This course the gentleman, Mr. C. H. Stickney, who is willing that bis name shall appear, has followed until a week ago, having been there ten weeks, and during that time gained ten pounds in weight, and, to uee his own words, ‘“‘My appetite is good ; I sleep well, and feel like a new man, and I am soon to commence business again in Boston.” He also says that there are ten or twelve others there, drinking the blood, all of whom are gaining under his treatment. One gentleman from Boston, a consumptive, so feeble that it was with difficulty he could get to this abattoir, is now able to handle an ax skillfuily enough to “knock down a bullock.” A lady from the city who has been six years, stricken with paralys's, isimproving won- derfully by this “blood cure.” A gratify- ing feature of this cure is that it is *with- out money and without price.” ir A Beautiful Incident. A poor Arab traveling in the desert met with a spring of sweet, sparkling water.

Provid- ed, further, that no dealer shall be exempt from eaid tax who does not produce such certificate. Any agent who offers such liquors for sale shall pay a like tax on the value of all liquors of any description sold by him.” —__.— MoEDER IN Swain County.—A let- ter to the Western Expositor trom Charles- tion, the County seat of Swain County, dated the 16th Inst., states that N.

How Bills are Engineered into Laws. A correspondent of the Wilmington Journal gives tke following routine of legislating bills throngh the Legislature, w ich may afford some interest as well as information to a portion of our readers : “In the first place the bill must be in- troduced in one of the two Houses and read by the Clerk the first time. On the first reading the bill passes as a matter of conree, the universal practice in Legisla~ tive bodies being to make no objection to a bill on its first reading. After passing the first time the bill is referred to some appropriate committee of members of the House in order that its character may be ascertained by careful investigation.— These investigations by committees are made while the Legislature is not in ses- sion, and constitute the most laborious part of the duty of members. When the committee have agreed in opinion, whether the bill ought to pass or not, they return it to the Reese with a statement of their opinion in writing.— The bill is then ready to be put upon the second reading whenever it is reached in its regular turn. The Clerk reads the bill.a eecond time and it is discussed and amended so to meet the views of th: majority of the House aud passed second time. ‘The bill is then ready for its third reading, and when reached in regular order it is ready a third time, ameuded and discussed if desired, and passed a third time. The opinion of the committee has a great influence in shaping the action of the House upon a bill, at ig not con- clusive. When a bill has passed the third time ia the House in which it was first intro- duced, it must be “engrossed” or copied for transmission to the other House. The committee on Engrossed Bills have to ex- amine the “engroseed bill,” as it is called, and see that it is an exact transcript of the bill as it passed, and certify this fact on the bill. The Chief Clerk certifies on the bill the fact that it passed in due form, and the engrossed bill is then sent with a written message by one of the Clerks to the other House “informing that Hon- orable Body,” as the phrase goes, that the bill bas been pagaed, and asking concur- rence therein. The original bill with the amendments, &c., is preserved among the records of the House in which it is intro~ duced. When the Clerk with the maesage and bill reaches the other House, it sus- pends business for the moment, the door keeper announces in a loud voice ‘‘a mes- sage from the House of Representives” or “from the Senate,’ as the case may be, and the presiding officer invites the mes- senger to come forward. He does so and delivers his papers to the presiding officer who rises to reccive them. The Clerk then returns and the regular business is resumed. The course of the bill is now precisely similar to that taken in the House in which it was introdeced, to wit: it is read and passed first time and referred toa committee for examination and report, read and passed third time. When an engrossed bill has been pass- ed the third time in one House precisely ag ii came from the other House it is then ready for “enrollment.” The committee on Enrolled Bills examine the enrolled bill and certify that itis au exact copy of the engrossed bill as it passed both Hous- es and report the fact to boti Houses, the committee on Enrolled Bills being com- posed of members of both Houses. ‘I'he enrolled bill, after being reported on by the committee, is signed by the presiding officer of each House in open eession and then is no longer a “bill’’ but ‘‘an act of Assembly,” in other words the law of the land. Itis then placed in the office of the Secretary of State for safe keeping. This is the very simplest way of ‘“‘get- ting a bill through the Legislature.” ‘lhe “engrossed bill” is the copy sent from the House to the other. The ‘enrolled bill’ is the copy deposited in the office of the Secretary of State, as the record proof of what the law is. ‘I'bis is, in brief, the history of a bill that bas an easy passage through the Legislature of North Carolina. In other States the forms and terms are somewhat different but the substance is the same.” ee a The Macon Telegraph takes the occa- sion of Washington’s birth-day to draw a comparsion between the ‘Father of his Country,’ and General Lee. We take an extract covering two points at the risk of spoiling a good article : “Washington owes his fame to success in a great measure—Lee’s memory sur< vives amid the wreck of the mighty armies, and the overthrow of the dearest and most cherished hopes thatievery stirred the souls of a gallant race. The one is hailed as the founder of a great natiou—the other lives enshrined in the hearts of a bleed- ing people, for whom he periled and lost everything s@ve honor. ‘I'he one accept- ed and enjoyed the highest dignities of the country—the other cast in his lot with his fellow sufferers, and ignoriug all future aspirations, was content to become an educator and ceuoeelor for the children of bis afflicted State. “In one particular, hb» wever, they were both alike and equal, and stood together par nobile fratum. We allude to the common platform of a pure and glorious Christianity. Both were men of prayer and possessed of ihe same modesty, gen~ tleneas, and unaffected piety. ‘The one blessed with honors and the proudest tri- umphs known to man’s estate, still re- tained his allegiance to the Author and Giver of all mercies. ‘The other, tried in the crucible of the direst affliction and disappointment, came forth as pure as gold well refined, to shine with increased lustra. ‘hank God bLere, there is no line of separation—no room for invidious com~ parisons.

It was generally believed that he had been foully dealt with; detectives were imployed, and every means used te obtain a clue that would even forma ground-work for suspicion, but not the eligheet progress could be made in that direction. The affair remained a mystery and time had almost wiped out the me- mory of the colored man and the circum+ stances of his mysterious disappearanee. Last week two gentlemen of well known good character and high standing in the community, who were also brothers-ia- law, had a quarrel, from which ensued a persenal difficulty. An amicable adjust- ment between the brothers in-law could pot be effected by friends. ‘They abused and denounced each other in such ans measured and unguarded terms that it finally leaked out that each knew some- thing of the mysterious disappearance of the colored man, and upon an investigation it was clearly shown that they were mar- derers of the man. They have beea committed to jail, not even being allowed bail, and the evidence is said to be cone v.ucing and conclusive—one heing a@ guilty aa the other. seo DramMonps GLITTERING IN WASHING@- ToN.

The question of electing U. S.

Speak~ ing of the removal of General Jounson trom the command of the Western army, for which Mr. Davis was held solely re- sponsible and was greatly blamed, Mr. HILv says that the matter was long cons sidered by the Cabinet and that Mr. Davis was the last to give his assent to the removal. He desired to retain. Gen Jounson but reluctantly yielded to the presure from outside sourees brought to bear upon him —Eachanye. We have no doubt that Mr. \Hill has stated the facts with resnect to the removal of Gen. J. E. Johnson. We know that there was a strong feeling in Lee’s army in favor of the removal of Gen. Johnson long before it was done at the instance of Mr. Davis’s iCabinct.

Cotton is a necessity, and the ex- tent of that necessity can be calculated with exactness. It is equally well known what proportion of that necessity must be supplied by the Cotton States of America. If 3,500,000 bales are grown, they will be consumed before another ctop can be gathered, and a remnneration market price will be sustained by the consequent demand. If 4,500,000 bales are grown, the large marginal excess will control and depress the market. It is not within the, power of our organization to control tliis feature of our condition.

Further Concerning the Autop- sy of the Siamese Twins. PHYLADELPHIA, Feb. 25.—The second edition of the Medical Times states that the autopsy of Siainese twins was continued on Friday last resulting in some iuteresting diselusures. It says on Friday the commis- sion continued the autopsy upon the Siamese twins aod made some important discoveries. They found that the two livers, which were supposed to be joined only by blood vessels, were really one body, the poseuchimator tissue being coutinuous between them so that when taken from the bodies and placed on the table, they formed one mass. The so-called treat of portal continuity is there- fore liver tissre. It will be remembered that Chang was said to be possessed of one more g than Eng. When the liver was regipved, however, an upper hepatic pouch Was found also, proceeding from Eng, so that ghe band contained four pouches of perituneum besides the liver tissue. These disclosdres shuw that any attempt during life to separate the twins would, in all proba- bility have proven fatal. The price of cuffee has declined in the North. But it continues high in the South. Can’t the merchants let down a little on this essential ?— Observer.

Nothing has ever been at- tempted so absurd, so insane one may almost say as the scheme of the Austra- lian-buateher to make himself a baronet and millionaire by simply lying. He had scarcely a single point to begin work upon, A young gentleman had been drowned at sea, who was heir to a title and agreat estate. His friends, convinced of his death, gave his heritage to the next of kin. His mother almost, refusing to despuir, advertised for the missing one. The advertisement coming to the eyes of a butcher in Australia, he resolved to personate the lost son. There was nota chance in a million tbat he could succeed. There was no accidental resemblance of person, of manner, or of character. Mr. Nasby tried to get a drink once at Wils lard’s Hotel by saying be was Charles Sumner. But this attempt was no less ridiculous. ‘I'he baronet was a little, delicate, “scrubby” man. The claimant wasaman-mountain, weighing 360 pounds The baronet epoke French more readily than English; the claimant did not know one word of the language. Sir Roger belonged to a wide-spread family connec- tion of which the claimant had never seen asingle member. Yet he confiden- tly sailed tor lsngland and for seven years fought the desperate fight which was ended in his conviction as a felon, with a Varyimgeenceess which must always re- main a Wonder to succeeding ages. His trial has changed men’s opinions as te the worth of humanevidence. Dozeus of witnesses, among whom was Sir Roger’s mother, testified that this was the right» tul hg. Several members of Parliament espoused his cause. Popular subserip- tions agsisted Lim in lis scheme. He was defeated at last by two things—by his own etatement in regard to: Mrs. Rad- cliffe; which all England instinctively cried could not have been made by a man born gentleman, and by the evidence of Lord Balle w, whosaid he had tattooed Sir Rogerin his boyhood. Remove these two éompuratively unimportant incidents from the case, and it is not impossible that the craziest crime against rank and property ever attempted might have suc- eceded, by form of law, in the most aris- tocratic country of earth.—N.

V.---THIRD SERIES. [Philadelphia Press. } Individual Men. There is not much trath in the delara- tion made, that individual power is perish- ing. In twenty years, from 1796 to 1815, the First Napolean literally, proce nse in and through Europe. hatever was done on that continent in that time was caused by some action or aim of his. So, in England, before and after Napoleon thus became a power, William Pitt pres dominated, as his father, Lord Chatham, had done forty yeare before. Peel occupied the highest position for over twenty years, and, like Wellington, was powerful ont of office. Se with Palmerston. There was O’Connell, the uncrowed King of Ireland, from the establishment of the Catholic Association and “the Rent’’ until he was fairly driven out of the field by the Young Ireland party and ill-health, bis being a reign of over twenty years. Declining office for himself, he liberally dispensed government patronage among his adherents. Peel died in 1850, and the history of Europe ever since might be told in the biography of Louis Napoleon ; Cavour, and Bismarck. Who will deny that Individual power has rarely been so throughly represented as in the person of the German statesman? It is curious, tracing effects up to causes, to see the springs of action in Europe during the last twenty years. Cavour was the rep- resentative of the great movement south of the Alps which ended in Italian unity. Bismarch represented the corresponding movement which made the resurrection of the old Germanic Empire. Louis Napo- leon was the blind instrument of Destiny in working out both of these great revolvu- tions in Kurope. It turned out that Cavour and Bismarch were too wily and resolute for Napoleon. It is impossible to determine what would have been the state of things in Europe it the third Na- poleon had possessed the decision and dash of the first. Because Louis Napo- leon was weak and vacillating, deficient in self-reliance, and insisting on working out his own ideas through the agency of clerks instead of statesmen, Italian and German unity arose in our time. Ever since 1852 the history of Europe is to be read in the biography of Disraeli and Gladstone. ‘I'heir names represent ideas and principles. soe - Married and Didn't Know It. The suit of Edward K. Winship, the bankrupt broker, for a divorce from his wife, was before a New York court on Saturday. In relation to his marrage, Mr. Winship says that while he was in the navy, one Butler, his ship mate, a Philiadelphian, went home ard was mar- ried, and invited him to his honse. He went there and the next day accompanied Mr. and Mrs. Butler to Germantown, and was introduced to the person from whom he ia seeking divorce. On the ttip some thing stronger than water was imbibed, and he knew nothing more until he awoke at his hotel on the following day, when he awaked and discovered a lady in his bed, who said she was his wife, and ex- hibited a certifiate to prove the tact. He did not know how they came to be mar- ried, as he had only known her two hours before the event took place, and up to the present time he has now been able to find out wheter his wife’s suraame was Bate- man, Beekman or Bachman. es PoisoN OF THE OLEANDER.—The oleander, 80 popular as a house and yard plant, is extremely poisonous. A physi. cian says that be was called to attend a child a few days ago, who had eaten some small fragments of an oleander bush that had been clipped off. The aymptoms were sudden and violent, and the result nearly fatal. Deathly prostration, sanken eyes, great pallor, ivcessant vomiting, ex- treme thirst and purging, were the predom- inating symptoms. And old medical work quoted by the doctor, after describing the poisonous qualities of the plant, adds : ‘‘When han- dled in a close room when the stomach is empty, causes a numbness, coming by degrees, which show that something poi- sonous belongs even to the smell.” The United States Dispensatory mentions the fact that it ia used by the French peasan- try asa poison, and that while the deadly principle exists both in the leaves aud bark it is more active in the latter. are —— S CuarLEs DickeNs.—The following passage occurs in Forster’s Life of Dick- ens, being a letter in which the novelist explains some of the reasons why he was seperated from his wife. Dickens writes : “Poor Catharine and I are not made for each other, and there is no help for it. It is not only that she makes me uneasy aud unhappy, but that I make her 80 too —and much more so. She is exactly what you know, in the way of being amia- ble and complying, but we are strangely ill-associated for the bond there is between us. God knows she would have been a thousand times happier if she had married another kind of man, and that her avoi- dance of this destiny would !:ave been at least equally good for us both. Iam often cut to the heart by thinking what a pity it is for her own sake, that I ever fell in her way ; and if I were sick or dis- abled to-morrow I kuow how sorry she would he, and how deeply greived myself, to think how we had lost each other. But exactly the same incompatibility would arise the momeot I was well again, and nothing on earth could make ber un- derstand me or suit us to each other. Her temperament will not go with mine. It matters not much when we had only our- selves to liye for, but reasons have been growing up which make it all but hopeless that we shall even try to struggle on.” ——————~——___ . William Wilson, the man who killed Andrew Strong, one of the Robeson couns ty outlaws, died in Fayetteeville on Wed- nesday, Disease of the Eye Contagious. Dr. Reuling, of the Maryland Eye and Ear Institute, writes that the disease known as Egyptian or granular inflama~ tion of the eye, is spreading rapidly through the United States. It sometimes causes blindness and is very contagious. The adds: , I haye in many, and I may say ih the majority of cases, been ableto trace the disease to the use of the so-called rolled towels. Sueh towels are generally found in our country hotels and the sleeping apartments of the working classes, and being used by nearly every one are made the.carriers 8f.ons.of the most dangerous, and,.as regards its symptoms, thost troub- fesome diseases of the eye. I therefore would strongly reemmend that the ase of the rolling towel be abolished, for thereby we will discard one of the great instra- ments for the spread of such a dangerous disease to the eye, by which thosands of workingmen are annually deprived of their means of support. ——~aao————__— Young Men. Read this below and reflect on what it so truthfully says : “A little incident occurred at a neigh» boring town lately which we publish for preservation. A noble hearted and sen- sible woman was shopping, when a elerk asked her, ‘What are our men to do now ? The merchants are reducing the number of their employes and discarding their clerks, and as we can find no other situa-~ tion what are poor clerks to do?’ She promptly replied, ‘Walk-right into the field and get between the plow-handles, where you are most needed. ‘I'oo many young men are hunting easy pusi~ tions and crowding the professions, while their mothers are at home, many of them toiling hard to maintain and keep up the family, even chopping wood to make fires to cook and wash with, while the sons, and ‘oo many of the daughters, are dressing fine, keeping company, and like vampires eating up the substance of their living. If all our ladies, both old and young, would bat talk thus plainly to our young men, many more of them would remain home to make that home happy and com- fortable to repay the watch-care, anxiety and toils of parents by industrious, uscful labors.’ That clerk was benefited by that excellent lady’s lecture, and we hope many more will be profited by reading | her sound views published here ; for we. have not seen nor heard anything more to | the pointanywhere.

Of a buining well in Boone County, Ia., the Boonsboro Fepublican says: “About three weeks ago a well was bored on the farm of Mr. Jolin Long, a farmer, | living six or eight miles south of Boone. | The auger went down 65 feet without ' fiading water, but it was noticed that the | well, 15 inches in diameter, emitted some sort of light fluid, haying a peculiar gasc- | rous smell. Last Friday, at 10 o'clock | a. m.a lighted match was applied to the orifice and the escaping gas immediately ignited, making a brilliant, blush flame, varying in height from five to fifteen feet. It has now been burning for several days without losing anything in the size or brilliancy of the flame, and our informant | believes it supplies gas enough, if the same ' could be atilized, to light quite a city. He also gives it as his opinona that the resources of these subteranean gas works are equal to almost any emergency, and that the supply will not run out. Be this as it may, the buruing well is quitea curiosity, and many people are visiting | it daily. Whe flame was extinguished once, last Sunday, but shortly afterward relighted.-It burns entirely above ground, | and not in the well.” ! I IOWA ANTI-MONOPOLY PARTY’S PLATFORM. Des Moines, Feb. 26. The Anti-Monopoly State Convention met bere yesterday. Sixty-four counties where represented by 414 delegates. ‘The Hon. Thor. Mitchell, of Polk county, was chosen permanent President. The first resolution declares that the primary ebject of « frce republican gov- ernment is the proper protection of per- sons and property, and that simple laws, faithfully administered, will best secure that end. ‘lhe second declars iu favor of political reform, and to that end demands honesty, economy, and purity in official life—The third repudiates the doctrine that “tothe victor belongs the spoils,’’ and favors a true system of civil service reform, making honesty and capacity the only valid claims for public employment. ‘The fourth resolution opposes a protective tariff, and demands free iron, stecl, salt, lumber, and woolen fabrics, and a tariff, for revenue only. ‘he fifth declares all corporations eubject to legislative control, Federal or State, according to the source of the chartera of the eorporations, and that railroads should pay a full and just share of the taxes, and are entitled to only a just and reasonable interest on the money invested. ‘The sixth favors a free banking system, under national laws. The seventh opposes further land grants to railroads, aud declares that the public domain should be reserved for actual set- tlers, and invites all men of whatever call- ing, business, trade, or vocation, regard- less of political views, to join them in re~ moving the evils that affect the country. ee THE Jones was thrown into a state of won- der by the sign ‘ladies’ felt slippers,’’ which he diseovered when passing a shoe- store.

Congress has taken the iniatory step to investigate the results of the traffie in liquor. Hardly a day has.passed since the session opened on which there have not been presented in the Senate one or more petitions urging government investi- gation in the matter. ‘These petitions have come from all parts of the country, and have been signed by clergymen, by State, national and local temperance or- ganizations, and by .thcusands of other respectable citizens. A resolution appoint- ing a committee to investigate the subject was briefly discuesed in the Senate on Thursday and Friday of last week. Sena- tor Schurz opposed it in a vigorous little speech, in which he advocated the German plan for suppressing intemperance ; that is encouraging amusements in which whole familics join, and discouraging those in| which men alone take part. Senator Bayard combatted the subject on consti- tutional grounds. Very little interest has thus far been manifested in the subject, and the probability of its success is very doubtful. ———c—5.-— — “Pay as you Go.” The farmer cannot succeed until he learns to liye on what he makes after it is made, and not on what he expects to make before it is made. Many years ago, an ecouomical, thrifty farmer, was asked by alarge cotton planter, why it was that, though he was called a poor farmer aud made much lees to the hand than many of his neighbors, he was prospering, while they, with all their broad acres and heavy crops, were constantly falling into debt and becoming embarrassed. He re- plied: ‘You begin at the wrong end, you buy your supplies at the beginning of the year on credit; I buy mine at the end for cash.’ ‘This was the true secret of the difference. Mr. McDuffie, in an agri- cultural address, delivered thirty years ago, in the hall of the General Assembly at Columbia, introduced, in connection with this subject, the language of that re- ; markable statesman, John Randolph, who in the midst of one of his brilliant rhapso- dics iu the United States Senate suddenly paused and exclaimed with the utmost tention of his equeaking voice, Mr. Presi- dent!

Nothing can fall more softly or more silently upon the earth than the rays of our greatest lumi- nary—not even the featherly flakes of snow which thread their way through the air as if they were too filmy to yield to the demands of gravity like grosser things. The most delicate strip of gold leaf, ex~ posed as a target to the sun’s shafts, is not ' stirred to the extent of a hair, though an infants faintest breath would set it in tremulous motion. ‘I'he tenderest of hu~ man organs, the apple of the eye, though pierced and buffeted each day by thou- sands of sunbeams, suffer no pain by the process, but rejoices in their sweetness, and blesses the useful light.

His method is to render the sponge compact by wetting, and then tying it tightly until it is thor- oughly dry. A bit of sponge, in size not less than a grain of rice, is placed under the nail, and secured by strips of adhesive plaster.

[Ben Hill’s speech before the Georgia Branch of the Southern Historical Society.] There were many pecularities in the habits and character of Lee, which are but little known and which may be studied with profit. He studiousiy avoided giv- ing opinions upon subjects which it had not been his calling or training to investi- gate ; and sometimes I thought he carried this great virtue too far. Neither the President, nor Congress, nor friends could get his views upon any public question not strictly military, and no man had as much quiet, unobtrusive contempt for what he called ‘military statesmen and political generals.”’ Meeting him one day in the streets of Richmond, as I was going out, and he going in the executive office, I said to him, ‘General, I wish you would give us your opinion as to the propriety of changing the seat of government, and going further South.” ‘That is a political question, Mr, Hill, aud you politicians must determine it. I shall endeavor to take care of the army you must make the laws and coatroly the government.” “Ah, General,” I said, “but you will have to change that rule, and express political opinions ; for, if we establish our independence, the people will make you Mr. Davis’ successor.” ‘Never, sir,” he replied with a firm dignity that belonged only to Lee.— “That, I will never permit. Whatever talents I may possess, (and are but limi- ted), are military. I think the military and civil talents are distinet, if not differ- ent, and full daty in either ephere, iz about as much as one man can qualify himself to perform. I shall not do the people the injustice to accept high civil office with whose questions it has not been my busi-~ ness to become familiar.”’ “Well, bat General,” I insisted, “his~ tory does not sustain your view. Cassar, and Frederick of Prussia, and Bonaparte, were all great statesmen, as well as great generals.” “And all great tyrauts, he promptly rejoined. ‘I speak of the proper rule in republics, where, I think, we should have neither wilitary statesmen, nor political generale.”’ “But Washington was both, and yet not a tyrant,” I repeated. And with a beautiful smile he said: “Washington was an exception to all rule, and there was none like bim.” I could find no words to answer further, but instantly I in thought said: Surely Washington is no longer the exception, for one like him, if not even greater, is here. Jews Wits Brack Sxixs.—In the city Cotochin (Hindostan) and its neigh- borhood live nearly two thousand colored Jews. ‘They are not quite so dark skin- ned as the Ethiopean negroes. ‘They are Israelities in the fall sense of the word, aod faithfully worship the God of their ancestors. According to their own state ment their origin is as follows: ‘he con- quest of a portion of the Hast Indies by Europeans opened to the commercial world the road to unlimited wealth, and the prospect of getting rich attracted ad. venturers from all parts of the world. Among these were many young laaclites from Bagdad, Bassora and Yemen, who came to seek their fortune. After establish- ing themselves they purehased female slaves from the natives, a number of whom married their masters after they were converted, and from these intermarriages the present population of Cotochin is de- ecended.

The money of farmers goes to the North for agricul- tural machinery and fertilizers; our met- chants seud their money North for the purchase of goods of every description ; and for almost every manufactured article of domestic use, we are dependent upon the enterprising Yaukees, ‘Ihe true and only permanent remedy for our troubles is to live within ourselves. Keep the money at home by engaging carnestly and actively in the work of tuilding up our own manufacturing interests —encour- aging home merchants, and fostering by all possible means home industry and en- terprisc. Until we do this we may expect to be ‘“ hewers«f wood and drawers of water” for other people who know better how to take care of themselves, and need expect no relief by Congressional tinker~ ing with the currency. The remarks of the Chronicle apply with equal feree to North Carolina, as well as to nearly all the Soatherti States.

We make cotton and send it North to bay clothes with, instead of converting the cotton here isto cloth and thereby reaping all the advantages of manafactur- ing. So it is with every thing else, every branch of iudustry is kept trammeled or raiher, made subservient to the manufac- turers of the North. Uulesa there is a change ; unless eur people resolve to live more within themselves —to build dp man- ufacturing establishments, and to encour- age and patronize them, the people of North Carolina and of the South, will soon become if they are not, indeed, al- ready, mere hewers of wood and drawers of water for the more enterprising people of the North. All the money that is made in the South is at once sent North to be expended for articles that we could make as well South, if our people would ouly do it. Whatashame, thata section so eapable of being independent should be so utterly dependent upon the North, —_All our ad- vantages of soil, climate, production, water-power, &c., amount to nothing, — They barely serve to give our people a limited subsistence.

Your correspondent as- ANON. From the Richmond Whig. DEATH OF MILLARD FILLMORE, MILLarRD Fitrmore, the last Whig President, and the last save one of the ex: Presidents, is dead. A brief account of his death anda sketch of his career will be found below. No man since the days of WASHINGTON who has filled the Excecative chair ever better deserved the appellation bestowed upon him of “the model President.” Although a native of the North, and naturally prejudiced against the peculiar institutions of the S uth, he was yet thoroughly national in his views, knowing no sections, but recognizing in all of its parts one common cou itry. The success of his administration gave ample testimony of his ability as a statesman, and the record of his life will attest hia devotion to his country. As a christain and a gentleman his walk was above re- proach. Would that we could ever hope to see his like again the Chief Executive of the nation, SKETHCH OF THE DEAD STATEMAN Millard Fillmore was the thirteenth President, of the United States, having been elected Vice-President on the Tay. lor ticket in 1848, and succeeding to the Presidency on the deaih of General Tay- lor, July 9, 1850, Mr. Fillmore wa: born in Locke township, Cayuga county. New York, January 7, 1800, and wa. | second of nue ehildren of Nathanie! and Phebe Fillmore. His education was limited, and he never saw either a gram war or a geograhy until he was nineteen years of age. At fourteen he was appren- ticed to legrn the fuller’s trade, and the five years were devoted to that and to la. bor upon his father’s farm, spending a portion ofeach winter in attending the rude common schools of the country. In 1819 he conceived the design of studying law, ay arrangement was made by which he obtained his releage trom his employer. The laws of New York then required seven years prepara:ion for admission as attorney from those who bad not received a classical education. He surported him self by teaching while studying law. At twenty-oue he removed to Buffalo, his late home, the jourrey being mostly per- formed on foot. He arrived an entire stranger, with $4 in his pocket. Afier his admission to the bar he acquired in a few years a large practice, and goun at- ily ever published in t Sta e. broad. ebristian charity, and loved and: ’ j the real struggle was between the Demos the impression that they are a determined | advocacy of the act to abolish imprison- ment for debt, which was passed in 1831, and which was mostly drafted by him.

He supported Mr. Adams upon the ‘question of the abolition petitions in ‘the T'wenty-fifth Congress. The famous tariff of 1842 “was his creation, and he bestowed an immense amount of labor upon its prepatafion. He retired from Congreas iu March, 1843. Iu the Whig National conyention which met in Balti- more in 1844, he was supported bv his own State and by ‘some of the Western States as a candidate for the Vice-Presi- dency. In the same year he was nomi- nated for Govérnpr tof’ New York by ac- clamation, bug Was defeated by Silas Wright. In-1847-he was cfected Comps trolley‘of thé State of New York; and in Jtine 1848 was nominated by the Whig National Convention for the Vice-Presi- dency, with Gen. Zachary ‘Taylor for President, and was elected in the ensuing November. Dresident ‘Taylor died on July 9, 1850, and Mr. Fillmore took the oath of office as President on Jaly 16. His administration, as a whole, was ack- nowledge to be patriotic, able, and useful, and his purity as a public man was un~ questioned. Yet, by signing the fugitive slave law, he lost the support of a very large proportion of bis party in the North~ ern States. On Jaly 4, 1851, he laid the corner-stone of the capitol extension, aimd an immense eoncourse of people who were addressed by Daniel Webster. His ad« mipistration was distinguished by the ex~ pedition to Commodore Matthew C. Perry, to Japan, iu a squardrou which sailed in the autumn of 1852, and which resulted in a favorable treaty with that country. Other expeditions to Africa, to the Chinese seas, and the valley of the Amazon were dispatched under his administration. He retired from the Presidency March 4, 1852. In his Cabinet there lad never been a dissenting voice as to any measure of his administration. At the Whig convention of 1852, although hia polisy (the fugitive slave law included) was approved: by a vote of 228 against 66 he could not com- maud 20 votes from the free States. In the spring of 1955 he sailed for Europe, where he was received with mark- ed distinction by the leading statesmen at the principal courts. ‘ihe degree ot D. C. L. was tendered to him by the Univer- sity of Oxford, but be declined the honor. While at Rome he was nominated for the presidency by the American party ; bat crats, supporting Mr. Bachanan, and the Republicans, supporting Mr. Fremont, and though Mr. Fillmore received the sup- port of large numbers in all the States, Maryland alone gave him its clectoral vote. He has since resided in Buffalo, devoting himself to stady and to the so- ciety of his trienda, and enjoyiog general respect. Mr. Filimore was of command- ing personal presence, of pure aud amiable character, of marked uprightncas and self- reliance, and proved himself in the Presi~ dency worthy in every wiy of that exalted position. ———__+-<>-+ ‘Lhe Prohibitory Liquor Law.

THE GREAT ANTAGONIST OF DIs- | said complaint within the time pt ' EASE. | What is the patural antagonist of disease ? It is the yital principle. From the moment that disease is developed in the system, this champion fights the intruder until it either conquers or is conquered. Which side should medicinal science espouse in this life and death struggle?: Should it depress and cripple the physical energies of the patient, thefeby help- ing thei disorder, or should it reinforce th vitality of the patient and thereby asgist in quelling the ailments? Ofcourse the proper answer to this question must be obvious to every one above the grade of an idiotor a lunatic, and hence it follows that the weak and broken down invalid who chooses to dose himself with dep'eting slops, instead of toning, invigorating and vitaling his enervated frame with Hostet- ter’s Stomach bitters, must’ be either feeble minded or deranged. Surely nothing short of imbecility or insanity could induce a person laboring under bodily weakness and nervous prostration, to take day afler day powerful doses of some drastic purgative in the hope of gaining strength thereby. Although charlatans may payerine preparations of this character as tonics, people in the full possession of their rea- son can not, one would think, accept them as such. If they do the penalty of their credulity may be she shortening of their lives. The rheu- matic, the dyspeptic, the bilious, the debilitated and nervons, and all whoare subject to intermit- tens, or other diseases brought on by the in- clement whether which prevails at this season, will do wellto strengthen their nerves, tone their stomachs and regulate their bowels with the Bitters, The two-fold operation of the restorative aS‘an invigorant and an aperient, in addition to its-direct arid specific effect upon the disordered liver, renders it a most efficient remedy for complaiuts of the digestiye, secretive and excretive organs, at present in use. This fact is conceded by erhinent members of the faculty whose testimony to that effect is pub- lished in Hostetter’s Almanac for 1874.

A Connecticut husband lately sought for divorce on the ground that his wife “did throw cucumbers in his face, because he helped himself too plen- tifully.” A gentleman afflicted with an impedi- ment in his speech was one day looking at the Siamese twins when they were on embibition. After examining them for geome time in silence he turned to the showman and inquiringly remarked, “B- bb-brothers, I presume 2” I say that the South would have con- red ns in a ycar if her Major Generals p’t been drunk; and we would have eaptaied her in two years if our Major Generals hadn't been drank. [Laughter and applause] Wendell Phillips The hydrate of chloral has so rapidly tmeréased in use, that, whereas in 1869 it eost $80 per pound, it can now be bought in a German chemical factory for $2 a pound. It is said that the secret use of this drng has become so great the victims are now classed in England with opium eaters. In eighteen months four dealera gold forty tons, or enough to dose thirty- eix millions of people one time. This is a@ fearfal revelation. William M. Evarts tells this story: “A few summers since at the urgent re- quest ef one of his younger danghters, he sent up to his country place in Vermont a dovkey for her use. She had read abodt donkeys, but was not familiar with theig¢, peculiar vocalism. The animal’e strange noises inspired her with the dest pity for his evident distress. she wrote to her father: Dear papa, —I80 wish you would come up here soon, my donkey is so lonesome.’ As Mr.‘ Evarts renders this pathetic appeal it is irresistible.” ———-“~— (From the St. Louis Gloube.] Against Dogs. Our 500,000 dogs furnish one of the most.important economic considerations now affecting the State. In the first place, they thilitate against the mutton crop an- na«lty tothe extent of at Icast $5,000,- 000; secondly, they cost at an average of twenty-five cents a week each, &6,500,- 000, enough to run all our common schools and leave a large steulable gur- pe 5, bhirdly, they slay annually, through ydrophobia, at least 120 persons, which (at 5,000 each—the average price paid by railroads for the very poorest grade of re ida amounts to a further sum of ere is a direct expenditure of nearly seven and three-quarters millions for dogs, not to, Mention the fines, eosts, and more remaig.aud sentimental damages resulting trom-dewsuits about dog fights and conse. qectenern etc of friendships between e owners of the combative cuis.

How Success 1s ACHIEVED.— Whef Professor Agassiz was asked to becom a member of a firm with the assuramee that he could make “any amou@ of money,” he replied “T have no tigje-te make money.” The prin- ciple gfthis doctrine is the secret of hccometr life. Ifaman could multiply himself, issue himselt’ in many copies, and topy apply itself to some busing§s, he would, if he were a capa- ble man like Agassiz, succeed in all ; but eaeh man can apply himself only to his 6wn business, and there he must use hig energy if he would succeed. This is the secret—concentration upon one business. Avassiz had no time to make money, to make love, to be a statesman, lawyer, mechanic, anything but just what he was—a scientist, whose specialty wasichthyology. All his energy was devoted to this purpose, and he succeeded. The concentration was itegse and long-continued, and not evemithe great Cuvier was his equal, w= slain ——-- Pure fron.— Absolutely pure iron is said to have been prepared by a Rassian chemist, by means of the galvanicghatiery.

Address, - EDWARDS & BROUGHTOM. Feb. 13, tf Raleigh, N.C. whe oo q > egar Bitters are a purely Vegetable preparation, made chiefly from the na- tive herbs found on the lower ranges of tke Sierra Netada mountains of Califor- nia, the medicinal propertics of which are extracted therefrom without the use of Alcohol. The question is almost daily asked. “What is the cause of the unparalleled success of VINEGAR BItT- TERS?” Our answer is, that they remove the eause of disedse, and the paticnt re- covers his health. They are the great blood purifier and a life-giving principle, a perfect Renovator and Invigorator of the system. Never before in the history of the world has a medicine been compounded possessing the remarkable qualities of VixeGar Bitters in healing the sick of every discase manis heir to. They are a gentile Purgative as well as a Tonic, relieving Congestion or Inflammation of the Liver aud Visceral Orgaus in Bilious Diseases The properties of Dr. Warxer’s VinkGaR BITTERS are Aperient, Diaphoretic, Carminative. Nutritious, Laxative, Diuretic, Sedative. Counter-Irritant Sudorific, Altera- tive, and Anti-Bilious. Grateful thousands proclaim Vrx- 2¢aR BITTERS the most wonderful In- Vigorant that ever sustained tho sinking system. No Person can take these Bitters according to directions, and remain long unwell, provided their bones are not de- stroyed by mineral poison or other means, and vital organs wasted beyond repair. Bilions, Remittent and Tnter- mittent Fevers, which are so preva- Jent in the valleys of our great rivers throughout the United States, especially those of the Mississippi, Ohie, Missouri, Allinois, Tennessee, Cumberland, Arkan- sas, Red, Colorado, Brazos. Rio Grande, Pearl, Alabanja, Mobile. Savannah, Ro- anoke, James, and many others, with their vast tributaries, throughout our entire country during the Summer and « Autumn, and remarkably so during sea- sons of unusual heat and dryness, are invariably accompanied by exiensive de- rangements of the stomach and liver, and other abdominal viscera. In their treatment, a purgative, exerting a pow- erful influence upon these various or- fans, is essentially necessary. There is no cathartic for the purpose equal to Dr. J. WALKERS VINEGAR BILrens, as they will speedily remove the dark- colored viscid matter with which the bowels are loaded, at the same time stimulating the secretions of the liver, and generally restoring the healthy functions of the digestive organs, Fortify the body agaiist disease by purifying all its fluids with VINEGAR Bitrers. No epidemic can take hold of a system thus forc-armed. Dyspepsia or Indigesiion, Wead- ache, Pain in the Shoulders, Coughs, Tightness of the Chest, Dizziness. Eructations of the Stomach, Bad Taste in the Mouth, Bilious Attacks. Palpita- Sour tation of the Heart, Inflammation of the Lungs, Pain in the region of the Kid neys, and a hundred other painful svimp- toms, are the offsprings of Dyspepsia. One bottle will prove a better guarantee of its merits than a lengthy advertise- _Inent.

Key West, Fla., March 2.—On the 48th of January last two men calling themselves Sandy Campbell and Billy "Tracy arrived here from New York aud pretended to be looking for work as las borers. ‘hey took board ina respectable boarding louse and sauntered around town for two or three days but got no work to suit them. Ou the fifth day after their arrival they had a fight with some of the other boarders and were arrested and committed on charge of assault with intent to kill. ‘The oncat day after their commitment they hired a boy to get their baggage away from their boarding house and hid it. ‘I'he boy stole the bag- gage and secreted it, but was arrested, and in ifthe police found an outfit for burglars, al sectional jimmy about five feet leng being one of the instruments. ‘I'he police thought the men had come duwn ere to rob some of the pay-masters’ safes ; but aboxt this time the attention of the efficers was attacted by the trial of the masked robbers in your State, and learns ing that one or two of them had escaped, the police thonght these fellows, Camp- bell and ‘Tracy, might be the two. Uhief of Police Marshall therefore tele- graphed to New York, and received a reply that Camp bellat least was one of the men who had escaped, and the Chicf was requested to hold him But abous this time the prisoners broke jail and escaped. Bleodbounds were put on their track, and within twenty-four bours they were found wu the swamps. A desperate fight follow- ed, in which several ot the othcers were slightly burt, but tue desperadoes were at length eaptuved and handeuffed. Camp-~ bell smashed his haudcufls over a stump, and the officers had more trouble with bim, but finally he was lodged in jail, and ia chained to the toor of his cell awaiting the arrival of the New York detectives.

From the Indianapolis Journal. A Touching Case. During the last week the Journal has announced the death at the Hotel Bates, of Thomas L, Salisbury and Eliza E. Salisbury, bis wife,the former having died on Monday tbe 16th, and the latter on Saturday eyening the 21st. Some of the circumstances attending the death of these two amiable and excellent persons were not only very touching but rather extraordinary. ‘I'lhey formerly resided in St. Louis, and while there were called upon to mourn the lost of two fine chil- dren, their sole family; who were lost to- gether while skating near St. Louis. They were a young lady aged eighteen, and a lad of fifteen. They were drowned on the 21st of February, 1864, precisely ten years before the day of Mrs. Salisbury’s death. This double affliction almost broke their hearts, and henceforce they lived for each other alone, concealing their great grief as those only uudeistoned who have been similarly bereaved. Naturally con- genial and devoted to cach other, their lives grew more closely together by rea- son of the hard providence which at one dispengation had removed both their dar- lings from their sight without a word of parting or warning. ‘I'wo weeks ago when Mr. Salisbury was taken sick, his wife watched at his bedside with sleep~ less affection. Day and night she minis-~ tered to his wants till it was feared her own frame, never very strong, would wholly give away. About twenty-four hours before his death, finding him able to converse alittle, she asked him if he knew her. He said yes, and smiling call- ing call her by name. ‘I’o her inquiry if be was willing to die, he said “Yes.” She said “Thomas, you want to go and see the children, do you not? He answered “Yes.” ‘hen she said, ‘Thomas, I will follow you soon; do you wait for me; il will come very soon.” From-that moment she evinced no more anxiety about her husband. She scemed io regard his death az certain, and her own as soon to follow. Yielding to the advice of frienda, she re- tired and alepttill just before her husband’s death, when she rose and bade him good bye. Immediately after his death she took to her bed and began to sink rapidly. No physical derangement was apparent, but it was a case of broken heart, or insup- portable sorrow. The doctor did what he could, but it was a case that wholly baflled his art. Her malady was a_ kind that no human remedy could reach. ‘The gentle lady was cntirely resigned to her situation, and seemed to contemplate her approach ing death with ertire composure. During the weck she steadly sank ‘until it was apparent that her eid was near. On Saturday evening, a short time before her death her friends were startled to see her face illuminated by a bright smile. It beamed with light that never shone on sea or land, and told of unspeakable joy. Her eyes gazed into distance and her hands moved as if to welcome some one. A solemn stillness fell upon the bystand~ ers, and the thought struck all that was greeting her children. From that moment the lady neither epoke nor moved, but sank away and passed trom mortal life with the same eloquent smile upon her face. She kept her engagement with the husband, and followed soon after him to complete the family circle in the land of the hereafter. ~~ RipeNING FoR DEATH.—No one, (says Von Humboldt) can fear death legs than I do, neither am I much attached to life, but [ have never known the feeling of an anxious longing for death ; and although it be a nobler one than that of an absolute weariness of existence, it is nevertheless blamable. Life must first, for as long a period as Providence wills it, be enjoyed or suffered—in one word, gone through, and that with a full submission, without murmaring, lamenting or repining. ‘There is one important law of nature, which we should never lose sight of; I mean that of ripening for death. Death is nota break in exiatence, itis but an intermediate circumstanee, a transition from one form of our final existence to another. ‘The moment maturity for death cannot be de~ cided by any human wisdom or inward feeling ; and to attempt to do so would be vothing better than the vain rashness of human pride. ‘hat decision can only be made by him who can at once look back through our whole course ; and both rea-~ son and duty require that we should leave the hour to Him, and never rebel against His deerees by a cingle impatient wish. The first, and the most important thing is, to learn to master ourselves and to throw ourselves with peaceful confidence on Him who never charges, looking on every situation, whether pleasant or other- wise, as a source, from which our interior existence and individual character may draw increasing strength; and hence aprings that entire submisaion which few attain to, although all fancy they feel it. — -~—-—?>-- Tite “Norfolk Virginian makes the following practical remarks concerning the establishment vf cotton mills in the South : “There can no longer be doubt that the South is awakening to her advantages for the manufacture of cotton. Scarcely an exchange comes to us from any point south of the James river but it brings either record of the succese met with by cotton factories or report of efforts making for their establishmeats. Th statistics of this industry are daily laiu before the country, and contrast made be- tween the S91 factories of the North and the pitiful 83 of the South. The relative rates of labor and the greater profit to be made here than there are dwelt upon, and the magnificent result of Georgia’s enter- prise in this direction are heralded for all ' men’s information.” SALISBURY N. C.. MAR From our Living and our Dead. Roanoke Island. We close the account of the great dis- aster which befel the Confederates on the 8th of February, 1862, in the fall of Roanoke Island. Future historians will record this event as one of the most im- portant which had occurred in the progress of the war up to that date. We still hope that more light will yet be thrown apon this event. Justice to Col. Shaw, who gave his life for the cause, and to the brave men he commanded, demands that some of the survivors, who partieipated in the fight, should give more in detall what was done to repulse the enemy ; the losses sustained by us, and the injury in» flicted upon the Federals. Where are the surviving officers and men of the 8th, of she 31st, and of the 17th who were there ? Will they permit the meagre accounts we have to go to posterity as the whole truth concerning this great disaster ? Col, W. J. Green; who commanded a battalion, gave in a previous number of Our Livinc AND Our DEAD, an inter-~ esting account of the part borne by his command—why cannot other officers do the same ? If Col. Shaw ever made an official report we have thua far been una- ble to find it. His brother officers, his friends, owe it to the memory of that gal- lant man to furnish us with the material ne- cessary to vindicate his action in the affair. ‘The testimony given before the Congres- sional Committee, appointed to investigate the causes which led to the fall of the Island, and the conduct of our troops, was a complete vindication, and led to the Report which we publish in full ; but that testimony is not within our reach. Many of the officers who appeared before that committee still live, aud why they hesitate to publish their statements now passes our eomprchension. It is due to the liv- ing, and ina still greater degree to the dead, that they should be heard. The future fame ot the brave Virginians who fell there will be properly and revrently eared for by those who survived them, their prowess and gallant conduct will be fitly commemorated, and why should North Carolinians be less carefal of the fame of their brethren, the brave sons of the same noble mother! -~—_-- Beatrice Cenci. The Story of a Well-Known Face. In almost every paint shop is to be seen the aad face of the unfortunate lady whose story is briefly told in the subjoined sketch, | and only recently Messrs. Woodhouse & | Parham had exposed in one of the win- dows of their establishment a very strik- ing and artistic picture representing the | incident referred to of Guido painting the portrait of the unhappy Beatrice just bes fore her execution. Shelley has embalm- ed her memory, and misfortunes, too, in hig immortal verse. As very few who look upon this sad, sweet face know the facts conneeted with the tragic history of the subject of the famous piccure, this brief sketch cannot fail to be read with interest by the general public: In the picture gallery of the Barberini palace, at Rome, hangs a portrait of a} young Roman girl, painted by Guido. It is a beautiful but melancholy face, whose “south look of swect, sorrowful eyes” and “touch of prisun paleners,” reproduced in chromo, are go frequently seen in parlor and shop-windows. For of all the famons paintings in Rome, none is better kzown or more copied than this. It derives pe- culiar interest from the history of her whose features it is said to represent. Francesco Cenci, the head of one of the oldest and wealthies! families of Rome, | was a man of violent temper, and, in his household, intolerably cruel. Two of his sons were assassinated at his instignation. At length, unable longer to endure his cruelties and tyranny, his family ap- pealed to the Pope, Clement the VIII, for protection. ‘The petition was miscar- ried, and remained, of course, unanswer- ed. On the night of the 15th of September, 1598, Francesco was murdered. He was found with an enormous nail driten into each of his eyes—a mode of assassination which indicated that at least two persons were engaged in the work. Que of them was finally captured, and upon examina- tion, charged the wite, a son, aud the daughter, Beatrice, with having prompted the deed. ‘hey had, he testified, put the victim to sleep by adtinistering a narco- tic draught, and then had introduced himself and his accomplice into Frances- co’s chamber. ‘hey were arrested and imprisoned in the Castle of St. Angelo, where they were from time to time, as was the practice during the middle ages, subjected to the tortures of the rack to force them to confess the crime. As was frequently the case with the accused, whether guilty or not, preferring death to this lingering agony, the mother and brother made confession, But for nearly a year Beatrice continued firm in her dec- laration of innocence. At last a new method of torture was devised, to- inflict which would make it necessary to cut off her hair, which is described as being “the most silken, the longest, the most mars vellous in color ever seen.”” At this she turned pale. ‘J'ouch not my head,” che cried. ‘Let me die without multilation.” , And to save her tresses she, too, yield- ed. Her beauty, the beliefin her innocence, the courage she had shown, had won the sympathy aud compassion of the whole Roman populace, and the Pope was be sieged with petitions to grant her pardon. | This he was nearly persuaded to do, when | at the trial her cause was most eloquent~ ly pleaded by the counsel appoiuted for , the defense, and it was shown how prob- ' ably a wan. so ‘generally disliked and dreaded as Francesco should have had enemies outside Lis owa household to plot _of corn would have a wonderful effect.— REE LE Re PRP wok he SH19, 1 .00 HEE C ie against bis life.

All the windows, and balee- nies in the vicinity were filled with people to witness the scene, 80 was the interest felt for the beautifal and young heroine. ' The portrait by Guido is said to have been painted just before, her execusion, and during her confinement in prison.— Her story has furnished food for many a romance, and has often been represented upon the stage. She is still generally supposed to have been inaocent of con- nection with the erime, and for every one recalling this passage «f histery, the pics ture has a strange fascination. oe Prepare the Land Well ar:d Plant More Corn. The most important point in the culti- vation of this crop is the preparation of the land by deep and thorough plowing. Corn roots run deep enough to avail them- selves of the benefits of all the soil the plow can break. ‘The earing season of corn is very often a period of frequent drouths, and deep and thorough prepara- tion of the land is the best remedy for droughts. Ifthe sub soil plow is used te increase the depth of the preparation, the roots and plants will run far down io search of food and moisture. The time of plowing should be deter- mined by the condition of the land, and no land should be plowed, especially in the spring-time, when too wet. Alllands with an atundance of vegetable matter growing upon them, should Le plowed in the fall or early winter, so as to allow the vegetable maticr to fully decay, that it may become available as food for plants. Bottom lands and all loose soils, already containing much vegetable matter, need not be plowed uutil near the time for plan- ting—this will enable the corn to come up aad get ahead of the grass and weeds. The distance apart corn should be plan- ted varies with the fertility and physical propertics of the soil, A rich soil can of course sustain a greater number of stalks than a poor one; but of the two soils equally fertile, one of stiff clay and the other of dark loam, the latter will bear closer planting than the former, because it absorbs more freely the light and heat of the sun. Young farmers are more apt to err in haying their corn too thick than too thin upon the land. ‘This crop de- mands more than simply an abundance of food, it requires a full supply of light and heat, with a free circulation of air. The corn plant requires manures con- taining potash 27 per cent., phosphoric acid., 47 per cent., and some manure con- taining ammonia to make the plant start off and grow rapidly. | Cotton seed con- tain all these ingredients and is one of the very best manures for corn. If before applying our cotton eced to the corn as a manure we would wet them and roll them in ashes, it would supply the potash, whilein the fermentation and decay the seed would yield up the phosphoric acid and ammonia, giving all the ingredients necessary for the rapid growth and quick maturity of the crop. | Prepare the land thoroughly, manure liberally, cultivate well, and don’t be satisfiied with less than 30 bushels to the acre. Ashes, plaster, cotton seed, and woods mold composted in the following manner, will make an excellent fertilizer for corn. 4 bushels of ashes. 1 bushel of land plaster. 20 bushels of cotton seed. 10 bushels of woods mold. A pint of the above mixture ta a hill Try it this year and repert. gee “J Oan’r AFForD Ir.”—How often do we hear this plea from young meu when the importance of an education is urged upon them. Many of them can af- ford to poison themselves with liquor, paying fifty or a hundred dellars for the privilege: they can afford to educate the tect in the gaycties of the ball-room on like terms ; to. attend sensationat places of amusement; to stake this same money they could not afford for an education, in a game of chance; to expend money for novels, which would pay for a library of educational works, and in a variety of other ways useless to enumerate here. This is looking at it froma moral stand- point. But let us suppose the existence of a moral young man who makee this objection, and yet wastes no money in the ways indicated. He “can not afford it” Bat he zan afford to remain in ignorance for the remainder of his life, of the most essential elements and principles of the business that he will be every day called upon to transact.—Hechange. 2 EXcELLeNt Conrection.—This is the season for oranges. ‘Ihe peel of this fruit, preserved in sugar, is one of the most delightful confections which a fami- ly can use—far superior to the extracts sold in the shops. ‘I'he peel should of course be perfectly clean, and should be cut in loag, thin strips. Stew in water till all the bitternese is extracted. ‘hrow away the water and stew again for half an hour in a thick sirup made ofa pound of sugar to one of peel, with just water e- nough. Pat away, in a cool place, for fla~ voring puddings, pies, etc. For this pur- pose it should be chopped very fine. No better or cheaper flavoring cau be furvish- ed a household. RECAP a Maio ls i HCE ts 874, woe. j dora of simi-| pardon, | and his wife’s niece. 7 "aie re mee Ke abana ction sf: eee Man Elopes With a url—The | of ee ‘Zwe —— On last Sunday morning the usual! as: neighb -rhood of sone Hope, in Nash county, was disturbed by the start- ling report that Griffin Holloman, a mar- ried man, had run away with Miss Mary Edwards, a young girl of only sixteen | summers, daughter of Mr. W. F. Edwards, Alas, the report proved too true, and upon enquiry, it was found that the faithless -husband and profligate had shamelessly abandoned his wife and children and enticed with hima beautiful girl, who was the idol of fond rents, to destroy her happiness and ng disgrace and ruin upon her name. Thus by one wicked and diabolical act, was destroyed the happiness ef two inno~ cent families, who are now bowed down with grief aed broken hearts. The wite who had given this wretch all the love and devotion of atrue woman, and con fided in him for protection and comfort, with a happy home suddenly cenverted into misery and desperation, is indeed an object of sympathy in this hour of trial. The thoughtless girl, snatched from her fond parents by the allurements of a bad maa, leaving her motber prostrated® with disappointment and agony at the rain and disgrace ofher child, what a pity for her in her wild, sad and gloomy fate. This man, Holloman, married about six years ago the daughter of Abraham Lamm, of Nash county. He was a Con- federate soldier from this county, and after the war, settled in the neighborhood of Spring Hope, where his conduct here- tofore has been that of an upright man. He is about 25 years of age, dark com- plexion and went off with his buggy, driving a sorrel nag that paces in harness. Ifer parents would gladly receive any in- telligence at Stanhope, that will enlighten them as to the whereabouts or fate of their rvined daughter. Language is inadequate for the denuns ciation of this wicked and cruel act and for the exposure of the villian, whe would deliberately perpetrate such a foul deed. If the sad effects of such a crime could be confined to the guilty, it would net be so bad, but lost to all sense of shame, they are not the heaviest sufferers, bat leave behind them in their wicked flight, a sting that pierces deeply the hearts of the innocent.— Wilson N. C., Ads vance. From the Wilmington Star. Mr. Wood’s Speech. That veteran Democrat, Fernando Wood, of New York, made a speech in the House of Representatives last Satur- day more startltng in its array of figures than any expose of the financial pelicy of the Administration yet made. Following in the wake of Mr. Dawes, of the Admin- istration party, and Mr. Beck, of his own party, Mr. Wood strikes some sledge+ hammer blows that must tell fearfully npon the Republican party in the coming elections. We ark the Republicans of North Caro- lina who read and have any opinion of their own to ponder thie speech well. Do not read it merely because it was deliver- ed by a Democrat and it is well to see both sides, but because it has the ring of the trath in it. These figures speak with hard metallic voices in condemnation of the policy of the Graat Administration, which is the policy of the Republican party of to-day. Can Republicans who claim to.be intelligent and to have wills of their own read the admissions of such Republican leaders as Mr. Dawes, made in his place in Congress, admissions so damaging to the party that every ingenui- ty is resorted to in vain to avoid the force of their sweeping condemnation, without fecling that there is something rotten somewhere in the party machinery ? And will such intelligent men, when they are thoroughly satisfied by the accumulation of proof from both sides, continue to sup- | port such a corrupt and crazy party ? Below we print the suramary of the in- dictment Mr. Wood brings against the Republican party : The government of its creation has maintained a large standing army at great expense-during a time of peace. It has usurped, by foree, the State au- thority in several States, producing an- archy and repudiation of their moneyed obligations. . It has increased the civil list from 44,- 500 persons in 1860 to 86,660 persons in 1873. It has instituted a system of espionage and oppression in the execution of the revenue Jaws which resulted in enriching Custom House and other officials without aiding the public treasury. It has created and maintained direct taxation which, until its advent to power, has been unknown in this country since the close of the American Revolation. It has stealthily absorbed the whole Government power of the country at the Federal Capital until all State interests are made subservient and dependent upon its will. It has driven from circulation gold and silver, the only constitutional medium, and notwithstanding its large receipts in coin from customs duties and mines, does nothing toward its restoration. It has increased the salarics of all offi~ cials, including that of the President, which it still maintains, though industrics are oppressed and poverty gocs starving through our streets. It has maintained a protective tariff in the interest of a class to the detriment of the whole people. It has, since 1869, anticipated the pub- lic debt not due for twenty years, and paid $40,000,000 for the privilege of doing ao, although the immediate obligatiens of the Government wee dishonored, and the — —_ ox es > es noutitell? csi = | JUBhias ~ —==a i i itgie & bondT ef ties ae GD > eA ’ ’ ee deepe dees ee r= now exhausted. 1% has inaugurated a fatal policy in ite treatment of the Telune een a. and part war—by dealing out moral suasion to the most warlike, and certain death to j the most peaceful, thue adding to the diffi- culties and expenses of a proper settlement of this serious question.

Samner, the able and distinguish- ed Senator from Massachusetts, is dead He died at his residence in Washington eity, on the morning of the 11th inst, in the 64th year of his age. Mr. Sumner succeeded Daniel Webster te the U.S. Seaatc, and was first elected bo that position in 1851, and he has held & without intermission ever since. His @lection to the Senate in 1551 was the gwiumph of fanaticism and abolitionism in Measaachusetts, and to the service of these he faithfully devoted his life. He was extremly sectional and fanatical, yet able and honest withal. He was a statesman es nearly as one can be who is governed Dy fanatical and sectional ideas. He did mach to afffict his country with war and desolation. Lis last acts were commen- dable, however, in that he strove tu oblit- erate as faras possible the memories of the late war, by erasing from the records end blotting from the battle flags the Gates and evidences of Union victories, Thoagh we never admired him, and al- wags regarded him as an enemy of the Boath and the couatry at large, we would @ay let his bad deeds be buried with him —peace to his ashes. eee os * par Gov, Kemper of Virgiuia, a good @ Conservatixe, is now being terri- Bly, abused by some of the Conservative C= of that State because he would not aparty.slave aud do what the party wanted him to do, right or wrong.—Char- lotte Democrat. Yes; he is abused now by his own party for doing what the members of the Conservative party have been abusing the Radical party for cot doing; that is, for acting independently, and discharging his pablicduties conscieutiously and fearlessly thout reference to the special demands ef either political party. We have been complaining this long time of the Rads. ignoring the public interest in their de- termined effurts to promote party ends vajy. But if our own partisans are not allowed to exercise their judgment in the execution of public duties, aud are to do nothing except ia obedience to party dicta- tion and thé requirements of party interest, it is about time we had ceased to upbiaid the Rads for so doing. We want rulers who know nothing but the necessities of the public interest, the general good of the whole people, in the diagharge of their official duties. We want no mere party tool to fill the office of Governor, of Legislator, or of any other position. We have had too much of mere partisanism iu the past. Itis time thatiwe were acting upon broader princi- ples and governed by more enlightened views. f. We believe in loyalty to party and party organization, bat there is such a thing as going to extremes, and extremes are always wrong. THE LATEST FRO fe MOUNTAIN. _ ‘alamity. — Louc ders and Terriffic Shocks that Wake Nervous Children and Frighten Sin~ ners to the altar of the Church, &c. ae. (0 For the last ten days or two weeks there-has-been gréat excitement mantfes-) ted on the subject of the volcanic and earthquake premonitions in the mountains of Western North Carolina as detailed by reliable correspondents and others who have either visited or live on the spot.— Some of our exchanges have given as much asa column at different times to the alarming subject ; and yet it has not been exhausted and the interest has not fagged. Bald Mountain, the ostensible scat of the threatend calamity, is situated about 15 miles from Asheville, belongs to the Blue Ridge range, and is several hundred feet higher than the peaks im- wediately around it. Until the recent aubterraneous thunders and terrific shocke were heard aud felt, thers was nothing remarkable in the appearance differing from the surrounding knobs and peaks, if we except the fact that snow has been noticed for several years past to melt more rapidly there than at other points. But now the deep detonatiuns and fearful tremblings of the mountain are exciting the wildest alarm. Children are awaken- ed from sleep in the stillness of night, aud sinners of the most obdurate and harden- ed kind are driven with fear and tremb- ling to the altars of the church. Prayer ineetings are in daily session and large numbers are sceking forgivness as the surest remcdy against the inpending dan- ger. Large quantities of land on and a- round the mountain are for eale but there is no one inclined to purchase. The latest intelligence repoits the excitement as on the increase. ‘lhe thunders are louder, the shocks more frequent, and great fissures are rent at different places from which smoke and steam issue forth. The people and stock are fleeing in all di- rections ; yea, the smoke it is said, can be seen from a great distance, and the lava ig running down the sides of the mountain, burning every thing in its pathway. And it is said Gov. Caldwell has called out the malitia in that section to stop it. ee DEATH OF CHARLES SUMNER— FURTHER PARTICULARS. WASHINGTON, March 11.—Hon. Sena- tor Sumner appeared in his seat in the Senate yesterday, and although taking no part in the business of the session, seems ed in his usual health. About 2 o'clock lhe was seized with a severe paia in the region of the heart, and left his seat and reclined for a moments on a sofa. At first he thought it prudent to go home, but at the suggestion of his personal friend, Hon. Sam Hooper, who was in the Senate Chamber, he concluded to remain there uatil his colleague, Mr. Boutwell, had presented the resolutions of the Legisla~ ture of Massachusetts, rescinding the reso- lution of censure passed upon him on aecount of his action in the Senate relative to striking the pames of Union victories duriug the late war from the army regis- ter aud all battle fligs. rallied and the pain entirely ceased. He returned to his residence in ordinary health. The Senator was in good spirits during dinner and for some time after; bat, at about 9 o’elock was suddenly seized with pains in the region of the heart aud rapidly growing worse, Dr. J. Taber Johnston, one of his physicians, was summoned. Ou finding his condi- tion so serious, SurgeonsGencral Barnes, and Doctors Lincoln and Wu. P. John ston were summoned, and promptly re- sponded. An examination developed the fact that the Senator was suffering from angina pectoras, or a contraction of the muscles of the heart, the worst phase of the disease from which he suffered a cou-~ ple of years since, and that in all proba- bility he would not recover. He suffered excruciating pains during the night, and early this morning, the Senater being no better, telegrams were sent to his friends, informing them of his serious illness. At 2 o’clock to-day he -had rallied a little, and bis condition was somewhat more comfortable. Uader the influence of a narcotic he slept at intervals, in his wak- ing hours being entirely conscious, though suffering intense pain. He said nothing, however, beyond making knowa hia im- mediate wants. Ata quarter to three he was thouglit to be easicr, as he was ap- parently sleeping, but expired at 2:55 o’clock, almost without a ‘struggle. At the time ot his death, there were present, Major Poore, Drs: Lincoln aud Johnson, Judge Hoar, Messis. G. ‘T. Downing, James Warmley, Hon. Montyemery Blair, and Senator Schurz entered the room just as he died. ‘There were a large number of persons, including many promi- nent colored citizens, gathered on the cor- ner of the strect about the time of his death, who closely questioned every one leaving the house, and all received the announcement of his death with unfeigned feclings of sorrow. ————~—a>s We understand that one of our leading law firms is ia possession of a letter from a lady out weet, laying claims to the en- tire city of Greensboro and mach of the surrounding couatry, which she claims was willed by her grand-father to her father some hundred years ago.

To nothing are we so much indebted for the improved condition, increased comforts, and elevation of snind and in- tellect amoung all civilized- people, as to the discovtries, inventions and imptove~ ments in the mechanical arts. Since the days of Watt, Bolten, and Arkwrighw’ all the great movements ef- fecting the conditions of the different orders and ranks in socicty owe their origin or have been mado practicable only by the introduction and usé of machinery that adds to human industry. In “the good old times” those who, by hereditary rights or by superior prowess assumed or usurped the right to rule over the great laboring masses, were content to have their wants supplied, whether of courtly display and extravagance, or of predatory warfare upon their rivals without a thought or care as to the, amount or kind of labor required for gratifying the demands of their pride and ambition. “ The tillers of the soil, the artisan and the manufacturer, all upon a common level, were regarded as mere serfs, useful only as producers of what was required by the higher orders. Labor-saving machinery has changed all this. It has been the great elevating aud equalizing agency of modern times and made it possible for the mechanic and the laborer to supply bis wants and to surround himself with cumforts, con- veniences, and luxuries unknown in for mer times to even the very highest’ or~ ders. He is no longer the serf dependent on other ranks, eompelled to devote his life, subject to their will in ministering to the wants of others, for the mere right of existence for himself. All this we owe to the mechanie and mechanical arts. ‘he great movement in this direction is still going on at a con- stantly accelerated ratio, Oue improves ment ouly stimulates to another ; a comfort or luxury for tosday is a necessity for to- morrow ; one improvement or advance secures the means aud opportunity for still further triumphs. The mechanic of to-day is not defined, as he once was by aliterary lion of the old aristocratic court circles, aa “a low mean fellow.” He may, if he improves — his Opportunities, be the pecr of ménin any 1auk or profession. — —__+-—>-. ---__ TRUE.

Four years ago a young lady of this city, now 18 years old, visited Florida. While there she accidentally swallowed a lizard in drinking a glass of water. ‘I'he reptile has remained iu her stomach ever since, causing her great pain at times, and mak- ing life miserable.- Several physicians have had the young lady under treatment, bat to no avail. A visiting doctor named Champlin has the case in hand, is confi- dent he has destroyed the reptile, and hourly expects to relieve the young lady of her torture.

Tenth Lecture—MRepentance, Conversion, and Sunctification—The Different Sta- ges of Christian Life. —_ New Haven, March 12—The tenth lee- ture of the course on preaching was deliver- ed this afternoon to the theological students by Heury Ward Beecher on repentance, con- version, and sauctification. The man who gives reasonable evidence that he has started out in earnest to be a learner in the school of Christ has aright to hope he is a Christian. You should uot define ‘faith accordiag to the ripened experience of a mature Christian. In some cases couyersivu is like the unveiling of a statute in a public square. ‘To the peo- work of years. It is enough for men to say they are only beginners in the Christian life, and woe unto him who says, ‘I have re- nuunced all sin.” Many are lost because ministers do not recognize the childlike be- ginuings of their faith. You would not lay a new-born babe out in the sturm and say, “If it survive the night it will be. worth taking care of." The Christian,'like the babe, needs succor most in the beginning: The practice in the New Testameut is to bring wen to break off wrong-doing at once. One will fail at first in this, but if he per- serve he will learn the great lessu of pa-o tience and conquer at last. I do uot set aside all drainatic expericuce attending conversion. Ladinire it. Istrove lung for it and didu’t get it. But weshould not judge all exper- ieaces by such special ones. You might as well say atter reading one of Mitton’s grand poetical outbursts that you would call nothing literature which did not equal it. The point when ove turns may be like the point of time wheu a ship turns in tecking. The sails shiver and flap'and gradually catch the wind and then become eutirely full.— There was a puiut when she turned, but you cannot inark it. Some think there is a want of dignity in commanding men tu repent at oree ; that this 13 @ waut of respect for one’s individuality. They say we should lay our sermons befure men delicately, and leave thein to choose. , AS well might a general in earnest send across the lines to the enemy a wheel-barrow load of balls aud say **We don’t intend to fire anything. Please kill yourselves with these,”’ I think I see one of these modern ininisterial eunuchs going and sitting down.on the banks of a streain where trout are, and saying, ‘‘O trout, here ain I. Here is my basket. Please coine forth in the exercise of your trout nature and get into it.” He theu goes away and says, **The meadow was pleasant, the stream was pearly, but the trout signified their intention not to come out, and I respected their individuality.” Be In earnest or else get out of the pulpit.

The former gentleman has already tak- en high stand in that body, and has as-~ sumed a leading position upon the most important and difficult question now be- fore the country. Gen. Ransom, though hitherto silent, has not failed to make a most favorable impression, and we have no doubt that when the proper time and subject comes up his voice will be heard and repeated.

Of its three cardinal characteristics, Faith, Hope and Charity, the true Odd-Fellow, always obedient to the Divine injunction, gives the greatest breadth and scope to the last named. Yesterday a lodge of this order filed through Main street on its way to pay the last tribute of respect to a deceas- ed brother. It was Friendship Lodge No. 10, and the members marched with solemn steps and slow to the performance of this melaucholy duty. Brother John J. Rob- erson, who they buried, had been an inva- lid for the past seven years, during which time, besides his dues, his brethren kept constant watch over him, to see that he suffered for nothing. Now that hia voice will be no more heard in the lodge room, his family will receive six or seven huns dred dollars paid by the five lodges here who have united themselves together under the endowment policy. We doubt wheth- er there is an order extant into whose com- position charity more largely enters than the Odd-Fellows.—Richmond State Jour- nal. rr Takes it as a personal Insult. Our loyal brethren of the city of “Brotherly Love,’ says the Savannah Morning News, are getting their dander up because Congress hesitates to vote eight or ten millions of dollars to defray the expense of their Centeunial show, and threaten if Congress does not come down, they will appropriate the one handredth Fourth of July to themselves exclusively, leaving the rest of this glorious Union out in the cold. Chevalier Forney, in his Press, alluding to the niggarduess of the Senate in refusing to instruct the commit- tee to recommed an appropriation, and the probability of his people having to foot the bills of this contemplated jubilee, says : “Driven to that alternative, Pennsyl- vania will honor the Fourth of July 1876, herself single and alone, and the recollec- tion of the neglect of her sisters will be to oe like the recollection of a personal in- sult.” We would be very sorry to sec sister Pennsylvania toke the matter so mach to heart. If, howcver, she should construe the refusul to make her a donation of a few millions of dollars into a personal in- sult to be remembered in tbe future, the country might possibly survive her rescnt- ment.

Walker's California Vin- egar Bitters are a purely Vegetable preparation, made chictly from the: na- tive herbs found on the lower ranges of tke Sierra Nevada mountains of Califor- _nia, the medicinal propertics of which are extracted therefrom without the usc of Alcohol. ‘The question is almost daily asked. ‘“‘ What is the canse of the unparalleled success of VinkGaR Bit- TERS?” Our answer is, that they remove the cause of discase, and the paticnt re- covers his health. ‘They are the great blood purifier and a life-giving principle, a .perfect. Renoyator and Invigorator of the system. Never before in the history of the world has a medicine been compounded possessing the remarkable qualities of VinkeGAr Birrres in healing the sick of every discase manis heir to. They are a gentle Purgative as well as a Tonic, relieving Congestion or Inflammation of the Liter and Visceral Organs in Bilious Diseases The properties of Dr. Warxen's ViskGar Birrers are Aperient, Diaphoretic, Carminative. Nutritious. Laxative, Diuretic, Sedative, Counter-Irritant Sudorific, Altera- tive, and Anti-Dilious. Grateful Bhousands prociaiin ViN- EGAR BITTERS the most wonderful In- Vigorant that ever sustained the sinking system. No Person can take these Bitters according to directions, and remain long unwell, provided their bones are not de- stroyed by mineral poison or other means, and vital organs wasted beyond repair. Bilious, Remitient aud Inter- mittent Fevers, which are so preva- Jent in the vallevs of our great rivers throughout the United States, espeeially those of the Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri, Mlinois, Tennessee. Cumberland, Arkan- sas, Red, Colorado, Brazos, Rio*Grande, Pearl, Alabama, Mobile, Savannah, Ro- anoke, James, and many others, with their vast tribataries, throughout our entire country during the Summer and Autumn, and remarkably.so during sea- sons of unusual heat and dryness, are invariably accompanicd by extensive de- rangements of the stomach and diver, and other abdominal viscera. In their treatment, a purgative, exerting a pow- erful influence upon these various or- gans, is essentially necessary. There is no cathartic for Uie purpose equal to Dr. Je WALKERS VaNeGal Brrrens, as they will speedily remove the dark- colored Viscid matter with which. tlre bowels are loaded, at the same time stimulating the secretions of the liver, amd generally restoring the healthy functions of the digestive organs. Fortify the body against disease by purifving all its fauids with Vingaan Birrens. No epidemic can take hold of a system thus fore-armed. Dyspepsia or Iidigestion, Nead- ache, Pain in the Shoulders, Coughs, Tightness of the Chest. Dizziness. Sour Fructations of the Stomach, Bad ‘Taste in the Mouth, Bilious Attacks. Palpita- tation of the Heart, Inflammation of the Lungs, Pain in the region of the Kid nevs, and a hundred other painful symp- toms, are the ofisprings of Dyspepsia. One bottle will prove a better guarantee of its merits than a lenethy advertise- ment.

In these, as in all other constitutional Dis- cases, WALKER'S VINEGAR Birrers havo shown their great curative powers in the most obstinate and intractable cases. For Inflammatory and Chronic Rheumatism, Gout, Biious, Remit- tent and Intermittent Fevers, Diseases of the Blood, Liver, Kidneys and Bladder, these Litters have no equal. Such Diseases are caused by Vitiated Bleed. Mechanical Diseases. —Persons en- gaged in Paints and Minerals, such as Plumbers, Type-setters. Gold-beaters, and Miners, as they advance in life, are subject to paralysis of the Dowels. To guard against this, take a dose of WALKER's VIN- EGAR BITTERS occasionally. For Skin Diseases, Eruptions, Tet- ter, Salt-Rheum, Blotches, Spots, Pimples, Pustules, Boils, Carluneles, Ring-worms, Scald-head, Sore Myex. Erysipelas, Iteh, Scurfs, Discolorations of the Skin, Humors and Diseases of the Skin of whatever name or nature, are literally dug up and carried out of the system in w sliort time by the use of these Bitters. ; Pin, Tape, and other Worms, lurking in the system of so many thousands, are effectually destroyed and removed. No system of medicine, no vermifuges, no an- thelininities will free the system frum worms like these Bitters. For Female Complaints, in young or old, married or single, at the dawn of wo- manhood, or the turn of life, these Tonie Bitters display so decided an influence that improvement is soon perceptible. . Cleanse the Vitiated Blood when- ever you find its impurities bursting through the skin in Pimples, Eruptions, or Sores; cleanse it when you find it obstructed and sluggish in the veins: cleanse it when it is foul; your feelings will tell you when. Keep the blood pure, aud the health of the system will follow. R. H. McDONALD & CO., Droggists and Gen. Acts.. San Francisco, California, and cor. of Washington and Charlton Sts., N. Y¥.

When we pray, for instance, for our enemies, the ial mast be rendered practical, must made a means of softening our spirite, and cooling our resentment toward them If we deserve their enmity the true spirit of prayer will put us upon endeavoring to cure the fault which bas excited it. If we do not deserve it, it will put-us on striving fora placable temper, and we shall endeavor not to let slip 80 favora- bly an occasion of cultivating it. ‘There ie no such softener of animosity, no such < soother of resentment, no sach allayer of \Watred, as sincere cordial prayer.—H. ” More. a> —_-~-oa-—— “The femelstrom” is what a Dayton man calls the present inovement in favor vf tem- perance, OL.

Upon the coffin lay a bunch of flowers, a gift from his “enemy’s daugh- ter’—the daughter of a man by whom he was feared and hated, (President Grant.) Near the mourners were the Secretary of State, to whom he had not spoken for years; the President, with whom he bad broken, after a merciless exposure of his selfishness and dishonesty, who never missed an opportunity to vilify or denounce him, and insisted upon the tnfliction of that which his puny soul deemed humilia. tion and disgrace; Butler, whom he dex apised as a demagogue and political trick~ ater ; the four Senators who, at the bidding of the Executive, headed the conspiracy which forced him from the Chairmanship of the Committee on Foreign Relations ; Cameron, whom the conspirators placed in his position. ‘The announcement of his death was made by his enemy, Anthony. His enemy, Carpenter, directed the com- mitment of his ashes to the eoil of Mas- aacbueetts. Was there ever such a mok- ery of mourning? Did it not resemble morea re-union of murderers? Is not the quietness of the corpse under such an accumulation of ghastly pleasantries the best evidence in the world that nothing can disturb the sluinbers of the dead ? " a Stay at Home and go to Work. We would not advise any young North Carolinian to take Mr. GREELEY’S advise and “go West.” On the coutrary, we would say stay at home and go to work in earnest. ‘he same amount of energy displayed here as would be required to in- sure success there would yield a greater re- ward. Labor is as much in demand here as there, and is as well remunerated. The difference is there no false pride prevents you putting yoar shoulder to the whecl and with gloveless and guiding the plow, the axe, the saw or anything whose touch defileth not the soul, whi'st here amawkish, senseless. scnimentality retrains those unfitted for the learned professions from soiling their hands or giving em- ployment to their muscles by engaging in euch pursuits as they are alone fitted for. Why those who accumulate fortunes in the West by manual labor are to be re- spected there and scorned if they attempt the same here we cannot exactly com. prehend in a country so throughly demo- cratic, nor have we any sympathy with a sentiment founded upon so absurd a pre~ judice. The kid glove charlatan, the mushroom of aday, who has yet the odor of talllow about him, may affect to despise the trade to which he is indebted for the position in society which his money pur- chased—and of wi ich be is totally un- worthy—bnt the true gentleman, the man of inate nobility of soul, the born patriciant is influeneed by no such narrow sentimen- talism. No, let our young men stay a, home and engage in any iegitimate occu~ pation that may insure a competency, even though they have to take off their coats and roll up their sleaves and go to work. Better this than roughing it in the West ; better a thousand fold learn a trade than sink all selfsreepect by becoming a fawn- ing aycophant atthe footstool of power, living on hope deferred until he grows sick in aaxious expectancy of a few crumbs of official patronage. Anything, we re peat, but this ; for even though the cove- ted office be obtained what assurance can there be that to-morrow you are not adrift to make a place for one more obsequious than yourself. ‘The poetexactly express~ es it when he says— Tis sweet to have a wife and five or six Small children to support, and live in dread Of every fitful breeze of politics That blows a shadow o’er your daily bread Which floats upon the tide of party tricks ; To know that you may sup and go to bed, And sleep and dream like any other novice, And wake up in the morning out of office. —__ - ~~ JAYNE, the Maryland Custom House informer, in his evidence before the Com- mittee investigating the affairs of that in- atitution, stated that in fifty-three cases which he had investigated he found evi~ dences of bribery of officials. ‘The names of these officcis were reported to the See- retary of the ‘Treasury. Some have resigned, a few have been removed, but by far the greater number are still in office. There is ananxious inquiry in the country for the nawes of these corrupt officials. Let them be made publi:, and then let the reasons for their retention be demanded of the Secretary. Fraud will thrive, if those who eommit it go anpun- ished when detected. In vain will the country look for a reformation ef abuses e0 long as bribed officials are rewarded by position.— News. > Doctors’ Canes.—It was formerly the practice among physicians to carry a cane having a hollow head, the top of which was gold. piereed with holes like a pepper box.

By the Constitution of the State the county commissioners who constitute the county boards of education have supervi- sion and control of the public schools in their respective counties. SCHOOL FUNDS. ' 'The law appropriates annually seventy- five per cent, of the entire State and coun- ty capitation taxes, property tax of cight and a third cents on the hundred dollars worth of all property and credits in the State, all taxes on auctioneers and license to retail spirituous liquors, and the income from the permanent sehool fund, for the support and maintenance of free public schools. Ifthis money is properly and economically applied, it will be sufficent to maintain a free public school from two to three months in every school district in the State. If this money, along with any balance which may remain in the hands of the county treasurer, shall be insugicient to maintain schools four months, the law makes it the duty of the county commissioners to levy, annually, a special tax to supply the deficiency. ‘The ques- tion of the levy and collection of such additional school tax, however, must be aubmitted to the vote of the electors of the county. If in any county the vote is against the additional school tax, the only school fund in sueh county will be that which che law has absolutely provided as above mentioned. GUARD THE SCHOOL MONEY. In the adminiswration of three hundred thousand dollars annually in four thous- and school district, it will be necessary to guard the school money with vigilance. 'The county Board of Education may adopt and carry out one, or all, of the following rules, or others which may occur to them : That no order for school money shall be paid by the County ‘Treasurer, until it is approved and signed by the Chairman and Secretary of the County Board of Edocation. That the school money in no case be apportioned to any township, or paid upon the order of any school committee until the school census of the township is taken and reported as required by law. That the pnblic schools shall not be taught at seasona of the year when labor~ ing children cannot be spared from the farm. COUNTY EDUCATIONAL ASSOCIATION. The county board of education and the board of examiners of each county are respectifully but earnestly urged to call an educational convention in their county and organize a permanent educational as- sociation. The State educational association which was permanently organized in July, 1573, adopted a resolution recommending that county educational associations be organ= ized. The educational interests, which are the greatest “interests, of the State, should be fully represented and fostered by appropriate county and , State associa- tions. Newspapers in the State which are favorable to popular education will please publish this circular for information. ALEx. McIver. Sup’t. Pub. Instruction, —— A BROOKLYN HORROR. An Insane Man Chops His Wife up with a Hatchet and Cuts His Own Throat with a Razor. Early on Snnday morning a terrible tragedy occurred in Brooklyn, N. ¥., in which Dennis Delaney, a private watch. map, in an insane freak inflicted deadly wouuds on his wife with a hatchet, and then committed suicide by catting hisown throat with a razor. ‘lhe New York Sun‘says : “The only witness to the crime was a little boy nine years old, was awakened by the sound of hJows. With three younger children he slept in a pallet on the floor in the room with his p:rents, The baby slept in a crib He opened his eyes and saw his father on his knees on the bed striking his mother with a hatchet. ‘I thought mother was asleep, he said afterward, ‘for she did not stir or make asy noise as father struck ber blow after blow. The boy was so terrific: that he was unable to move or cry oul, but he watched his father strike the ua- conscious woman, first with the edge of tbe hatchet and then with the head of it. Then his father dropped the hatchet and stepped to the manted shelf, and a moment afterwards the boy heard a heavy fall, and saw that his father was lyiug on the floor gasping. “An alarm was soon given, when of- ficers came to the spot, when a terrible scene was presented to their view. ‘The sent them with canes togheir noses. three terror-sticken children were sob~ jing mena ‘severed his head from his: ‘boi pillows an =— bing dismally, and were straining theft’ eyes toward the body of their father.

The family thus made orphans consists of the boy before mentioned and four ether children, the youngest only seven months old.” ———_ +e Intra-Montane Fire North Caro- i We printed yesterday in our telegraphic columns a brief statement of the premoni- tory symptoms of volcanic eruption at or near bald Mountain, western North Caro- lina. Aad this morning we publish further and fuller particulars, which go to show that the mountains must, indeed be on fire, notin the usnal sense of burning forests outside, but of actually and liter- ally raging fires inside. We are at a loss to account for this extraordinary demonstration on the part of thestaid old State just beyond the border of conservative Virginia. The recent death of the Siamese twins, with the attention given to the event by the scientific world, and the tragic end of the last of the Lowerys the other day, ought to have been enough, for some time, at least, to satisfy the “old North State” that her fame is not fading, and that the Mecklenburg declaration of independence is not all she has to boast in pointing to the memorable epochs in her history. But it is not so, it seems. Ler ambition. is aroused. Her jealousy is moved. Her blood is up for a_ rivalry of California, or it may be of Italy itself. She wants an earthquake, or a velcano, or both. And as her Bald mountain rumbles, and trembles, and sends out amoke from its seething sides, a wonder- ing world stands agape and aghast, in breathless apprehension of the outburst of an intramontane fire that shall light the land from east to west, and make North Carolina known even beyond the bounds of civilization. But badinage aside—and our raillery with our sister State is, of course, the familiarity of fondness—there ig matter for serious reflection in this phenomenon so new to us here. It is something for the geologists to explain. For aught we kuow our own Old Do- minioa mountains, that have never yet, been moved, may catch the contagion and give us a voleano in Virginia too. What an attraction it would be to visitors in summer! What an advertisement it would be for the proprietors of the spring ! If North Corolina is in earnest about es- tablishing a Vesuviua, Virginia will not rest contented with her Peaks of Otter, her Natural Bridge, and her Weir's Cave. She will have a burning mountain also, ifshe has to send to Mexico for it.— Richmond Enquirer. —--- -—— Every one HAS A Girt.—All Christ- ians have some gift. Some may have but one talent, but all have one at least. Tne Great Householder has apportioned to every servant a talent. No single part of a vital body is without its office. True, there are some parts of the body whose office has not been discovered; but as these are found to be necessary, we are quite sure that they fulfill some needful purpose. Truly, there are some Christ- ians who might be put in that category ; it might puzzle anybody to know what they are capable of; and yet it is certain they have some charge committed to them to keep, and that, if true believers; they are essential parts of the body of Christ. As every beast, bird, fish and inseet has its own place in nature, so has every Christian a fit pésition in the economy of grace. No true plant, no weed could be dispensed with without injury to natare’s perfectness ; neither can any sort of gift or grace be lost to the Church without in jury to her completenees. Every living saint has his charge to keep--his taleut over which he is a steward. A measure of gift is in all of us, needing to be stirred up.— Spurgeon. ee It is not the man who sticks close to his own business, makes money, hoards it, or spends it upon his immediate family that is a blessing toa town.

THE CITY OF MEXICO. Splendors of the Mexican Capitol. A correspondent of the Philadelphia Press writes from the city of Mexico: I arrived in the city of Mexico on Sat- urday night. I have been here a little over a weck, and freely admit that I nev- er was in such a magnificent city, nor in one in which I had rather reside, before. The entire population is less than three hundred thousand, and one with no know- ledge of the Spanish language would find it very difficult to get along. The city claims « population ef three hundred and fifty thousand, about one-half of whom are half-caste Mexicans. I doubt if any eapitgl in the world contains so mauy handsome women and wealthy gentlemen, or has so many poor, hideous looking people. Like all Spanish towns, the rich are very rich, and the poor very poor. The wealthy are handsomely, tastefully and fashionably attired, while those of the middle class affect the chivalrous dress of the old Baatile—cloth jackets with metalic buttons, gaudy sashes, sombreros with embroidered bands, and gold and silver clasps down the outer seams of the pan~ taloons. ‘lhe women promenade with no head-dresr, thcir faces protected from the sun by parasols which they coquettishly carry. From 10 to 12 in the morning the strects are thronged, and the shops crowded until 4 or 5 o’elock in the after- noon, after which hour few ladies are to be seen on the thoroughfares until late in the evening. ‘Then the parks, plazas and promenades wear an animated appearance. Ladies are to be seen floating about grace- fully, followed by their servants; and caballeros, in full dress, swords, boots and apurs, ride slowly around, mounted upon superb horses, whose heads and loins are nearly covered with elegant trappings. On the Calle de Santa Clara, or the Calle matched horses, with gold-mounted har- nese, drawing open phzetons, with liveried groom and driver occupying the front seat, and liveried footmen perched upon a high seat behind. The houses of the rich are built round a court-yard in the centre, entered through an arched way from the street; the lower apartments are occupied | by the domestics of the household, and the upper stories by the family ; wide stone stairs lead from the paved court yard to the balcony above ; flowers and statuary decorate the balustrades—some of the residences are beyond my powers of description, but, in justice to their owners or inmates, J must say that whoever farnished them must have had exquisite taste. All the doors and windows facing the street open upon small balconies, and here ladies love to stand and fan themselves under the damask awnings, and gentlemen to smoke their cigarettes, and both to be admired by the passers-by. ‘The streets are paved with cobble-stones, the narrow ones with flags. Carriages, caroes, horsemen, dimi- nutive jacks with immense loads, and half- naked Indian water-carriers travel the former, white men and women, Mexicans and Spaniards, jostle each other on the latter. The Circulo, built in Maximilian’s time, is the fashionable resort of the people ot the capitol ; it is a sort of park, beautifully laid out and elegantly kept—flowers, fountains and music are the attractions of the Circulo, which is, by the way, opeu to the public and visited by every one. Opposite the park and separated from it by a wide avenue, is the government build- ing called the palace, corresponding to our capitol at Washington in purpose, but by no means in appearance. Congress has adjourned, and President Lerdo Tejeda has retired to his castle at Chepultepec, two and one-half miles from the city. The most noticeable object to the repub- liean here is the number of aoldiers quart- ered in and around the city. You meet them every where, on the street, in the cafes in the parks. The discipline of the soldiers is very loose, and if one conld judge their efficiency by appearance, the opinion would be the adverse of complimentary. I will not attempt a description of the cathedral. I never saw 80 mach gold and silver used as ornaments iu the inter- ior of building in my life—solid silver column, ten or cwelve feet high, support- ing golden candlesticks, surmounted every altar; bronze railings protect the precious decorations from the cupidity of the de- yout worshipers. In every recess was an altar, at some of which during my visit, ladies, gorgeoualy attire!, were kneeling on the bare floor, beside the filthy Indian saying mass, and each alike dropped their fee—much or little, as the case might be—in the goldem box which the priest held out. Paintings on the walls, gold trapping around the sacred alcoves, and burnished gold and silver in great support themselycs, than it is to give charity to those out of employment and - indulging idle habite. masees bebind the principal altar, made the interior one scene of splendor. ing the marble.

While such a state of affairs pre- vails it is no wonder that the people cry aloud for relief. Quite a change has come over the speech of those people, however, for when the spies were operating South they were called detectives, officers of the secret service. ‘T'reasury agents ; now they are “base epies and informers.’ Well, well, circumstances do alter cases very ma- terialjy ? We know the way of the transgressor is hard, but we sincerely trust that our Northern brethren will at last reach that haven where tbe wicked cease to trouble and the weary are atrest. But if they do not cease to mourn until they have drained all the bitter cups they have held to the lips of their Southern brethren, they have yet much to learn, though we must admit that their education bas of late been pushed forward preity rapidly. The following, which we take from the New Yo:k Evening Post, isa sample of tlie way they do business up North.— “Jayne” referred to is what would have been called at at the South “a ‘Treasury Agent.” but now at the North a epy and informer. Jayne in the course of the statement | made by him yesterday before the Com. | mittee of Ways and Means of Congress, acknowledged that the papers containing Refugio, can be seen, almost every even~ ing, the old-style Spauish equipages, four | ‘ing)—Do Mr. Jayne, answer for my | as happy ae u’ please, but who shoul | I am not admitted to the private consul- the evidence so-called, used by the Cue tom House officers against Phelps, Dodge & Co., were stolen from the books of the 'fiem by the clerk who acted as informer. | he assertion is 80 astounding that we republish herewith the essential parts of Jayne's testimony: “Mr. Beck—Had ycu any idea how they (the clerk and his lawyers) obtained the papers 4 “Mr. Jayne—I never asked. “Mr. Beck—Did you not see that these papers lad been torn out of the books ? “Mr, Jayne—I saw they had been torn off.

It pains us very much to make the acknowledgement but truth compels us to eay in reply to our contemporary’s ques- tion that we believe it is true! “And thus the whirligig of time brings in his revenges.” From the Savannah News’ The Kurnel’s Room.

They had powers of attorney from-nearly all the silk ribbon. 8 in the country tu sue the United Stases to recover back duties which they ‘alleged had been unjustly imposed vn their goqds.— The first suits were begun seven years ago. They dragged along accumulating in namber until over $2,000,000 was represénted by then in principaland iuterest. The question involved was whether ribbons, in which the chief value was silk. should be appraised at forty or sixty per cent. The revenue officers interpreted the tariff in favor of the highér rate, which thé importers paid under protest. ‘They contended that the ribbons were ex- empted from duty as silk, because they had asingle thread of cotton along the edges. and that they could be taxed under the tariff only as silk and cotton, chief value silk.

It will also destroy red and black ants, cockroaches, spiders, chintzt-bugs, and all the crawliug pests which infests our: residences. ‘Take two pourds of alum and dissolve it in three. or four quarts of boiling water, let it stand on the fire till: the alum. disappears, then apply with a brush, while. nearly boiling hot, to every ‘joint and-creviee in’ your closets, bedsteads, pantry shelves,.and the like. Brush the crevices in the floor of the skirting or mop-boards, if you sus~ pect that they harbor vermin. If in whitewashing a eciling plenty of alum is added to the lime, it will aleo serve to keep insects ata distance. Coekroaches will flee the paint which has been washed in cool alum water. Sugar barrels and boxes can he freed from ants by drawing a wide chalk mark just roand the edge of the top of them. The mark must be un- broken, or they will creep over it, but a continuous chalk mark half an inch in width will sct their depredations at ngught. Powdered alum or borax will keep the chintzbug at a respectable distance, and travelers should always carry a package of it in their carpei-bags, to rcatter over and under their pillows, in plaees where they have a reason to suspect the presence of such bedfellows.

From the Italian News, an English Ameri- following : Our contemporary, La Liberta, states that a girl returned a few days since to one of the communal schools looking very thin, and the frequeut subject of convulsions. The directress finding that something had hap- pened to the child enquired what it was when the following story came out. The girl had been sent by her parents to the cun- vent of monks at the Bainbino Gesu to per- forin spiritual exercises before being cou- firmed. One evening the nuns collected the children in an apartinent, when late at night. there appeared lights which seut out a clear fire, the nuns then chanted prayers in low tones which the children repeated. Sudden- ly. a door opened, and in the: neighboritig hall flames were perceived, accompanied by a strong fumeof sulphur. Then two long, lean figures one in white, and the other in black, slowly travegsed the chamber uttering heartrending cries, The children were all terribly freightened, and doubtless from the continued spiritual exercises and long nights passed in praying, or fron the meagre diet which is allowed thein on such occasions, as & preparation for a first communivn, the patural result of the apparition which they witnessed was that. any fainted away, or went into hysterics. “Fhe nuns nevertheless drew the children to the door and while the ghostly phantom passed to and fro repeated in deep tones. You see that those are damned souls, and if you do notdo that which we shal say, you will become like them and go to the inferuo ; one can easily‘imagine the shocking effect produced on the over excited girls, many of whom—we beard on ezedible author- ity caught brain fever—and the one referred to above was so dreadfully affected as to be rendered an object of pity. This barbarous and greatly to be reprobated superstition, has been long enacted inthe convents here, and we wonder that the$e nuns can cunsider themselves fit and proper instructors tor childreu, in this so called. ealightened age. a An Eeyrrran Burtat.—The King of Masindy, in Upper Egypt, having died, was lately buried, bis wives being interred alive with.Lim.

The light as reflected by the clouds was quite awe ivgpiring and brilliant, and many at onee concluded that the subtcrraneoas fires had burst forth and that Bald Moun- tain had already been changed into a fear- ful ‘volcano. The quakiug and exclama tions among many of the solid men of the place, were laughable in the extreme. The shonag tops aud upstairs were crowded with those anxious to aecertain the truth of the supposition.

He takes the posi- tion that the Constitution does not confer the power on the General Assembly to elect Trustees, but makes it the duty of the General Assemtly to provide for their election. Here is the section of the Con- stitution to sustain this epinion—we quote trom Article 9, section dth: Sec. 5. he General Assembly jshall have power to provide for the election of trustees of the University of North - lina, in whom when chosen, shall be vest- ed all the privileges, rights, franchises and endowments heretofore in any wise granted to or conferred upon the trustees of said University ; and the General Assembly may make such provisions, laws and regu- lations from time to time as may be nec~ essary and expedient for the maintenance and management of said University. Tbe General Assembly can authorize the Supreme Court Judges, orthe Superior Court Judges, or the Board of Education, or thé Governor, or even the Commission- ers of each county, to appoint or elect Trustees, but the Assembly iteelf has no light to elect ehem. Therefore, there can be vo lawful Beard of Trustees of the University until the Gencral Assembly re-assembles and makes provisions for their appointment, Charlotie Democrat. ee eee DeatH OF Grn.

Comparatively littl: seems to be known of thig territory, its fertility, resources, and people, by the average reader. Its geo- graphical position, distance from the set- tled portion of the other States, and in- convenient and uncomfortable modes of public travel render it aimost inacceasible to the modern traveler, and its world is nearly a sealed book tu the people beyond its limits. She has an area of about 406,- 000 square miles, and claims a population of 112,000. She maintains also that her ability for self-support is well established, upon the ground that, while all the other territorfes buve, at some time during their territorial existence, appealed to charity for bread to feed their famishing inhabi- tants, 6r relief from pesitilence or fire, New Mexico, besides baving an abun- danee for her own people, has always had asurplua more than sufficient to supply the army nm New Mexico and Arixoua with breadstuffs and forage. ‘The people are affirmed to. be law-abidding, indus- triows; thrifty, and frugal, hospitable-and generous; eonservative io fiancial affairs ; slow to contract debts, and willing to make sacrifices to pay them. It is further urged that since the adoption of the Federal Conetitation fifteen new States have been admitted, each having a population of lese than 85,000 and one of the number less than 39,900, while the average of the whole fifteen was about 62,000. Hence she considers there is no principle of right or justice upon which she ean be longer re- fused admission into the Union. A meteoric explosion occurred the lat- ter part of last week at Rocky Point, New Hanover connty. There was once 3 German nobleman who led a foolish and dissipated life, neg- lected his people, bis family and his affairs, drinking and gambligg. He hada f one night which yividly impreseed him. He saw a figure looking at brm with a serious face, and pointing to a dial when the hands marked the hour of IV. The figure looked at him sadly and said theee words, “After four,” and disappeared. The nobleman awoke in great terror think- ing the vision forboded speady death. four! What could it mean? It mast mean that he would die in four days. So he set bis house in order, sent tor the priest, confessed his sina and received absolation. He also sent for bis family and begged their forgiveness for past offence. After arranging his affairs with hia man of business he waited for death. yee four days passed on and he did not lie. He then concluded the vision meant four weeks. He did all the good he could, but at the end of four weeks he was etill alive. It is plain now, he said, the vision meant four years, and in the next four years he gave his whole life and fortune for the improvement of his people, his neighbors, and the poor, taking an honorable part in public affaire. At the end of four years he was elected Emperor of Germany. a ee The Germen Parliament. The new German Parliament differs considerably, as regards the elements of which it is composed, from its predecessor, which commenced its sittings on the 2d of March, 1871. The two leading parties are now the National Liberals and the Ultramontanes, the former supporting and the latter opposing the present organiza- taion of Germany. The minority hostile to the Empire numbers 136 votes ; the majority favorble to the Empire has 261 votes. Of the former, including the mem-~ bers for Alsace~Lorraine, there are 180 Ultramontanes ; and 144 members of the majority are National Liberals. Among the members of the minority the Poles and Hanoverians may be relied upon to vote with the Ultromontanes on every oceasion, while the Democratic Socialists, led by Dr. Jacoby, will probably pursue an independent course on social as distino- guished from purely poltical questions. The Progressist party in the new Parlia- ment is composed of mach the same mem- bers aa before, but a great proportion of the Liberal ‘Imperial’ party have lost their seats, and it is believed that those whe have been re-elected will join the National Liberal party. As for the Con- servativea, they nearly all belong to the majority, and there is reason to expect that the few members of this party who still refuse to reconcile themselves to the new state of things will be persuaded to follow the example of their colleagues. ———_—_~4 Do - The Steam Plow. A correspondent who witnessed the work of a steam plow in England, rays ; I found the apparatus at work, plowing a wheat-stubble field of about fitteen acres in extent. The land is a light friable or sandy loam, covering evidently rich beds of the well known Tisbury free-stone. Upon walking up to the implement I found on one side of it only three of its five beds or skifes at work, the other hav- ing been smashed by the rock, which every now and then was very toublesome. And so the work went on, three furrows being turned by one end and five by the other for about half an hour, the uninjured end making most excellent work, and calling forth the strongest praises. The apparatus consisted of a set of patent double machines, each engine be- ing of twelve-horse power, and weighing about ten tons. They were fitted with winding drums and 800. yards. of steel rope, each alternately drawing the imple- ment towards itself, the engine notin work paying out the rope while moving forward into position for the return “bout.” The apparatus was purchased last Jan- uary for the sum of $9,000; complete with cultivator, van, and all necessary ap- pliauces. ‘I'he engines have single cylin- ders, fifteen tnches in diameter, with a stroke of eight inches. ‘The rope is one inch in diameter, and is worked on and off a large drum, so that at no time is it subjected toa sharp bend. The whole apparatus was worked by four men, one on each engine, one on the plow, while the fourth had charge of the van, and was otherwise employed as occasional work turned up.

The California papers relate a story of wrong and snffering that is not often equalled. In 1866 a Mr. Strong and his wife, steady, industrions people, came across the plains and secured a pre-emp- tion ranch of 200 acres in Mendecino county, They had just succeeded in cleaning off the under-brush and making their home comfortable, when two stock raisers, named Giger and Alexander saw the place and wanted to buy it, but Mr. Strong refused to sell, saying that he was too old to move again. He persevered in this detormination, and the men swore vengenance on his obstinacy. Killing a neighbor’s cow on his farm they accused him of the deed, aroused public clamor against him, and, by perjury, had him sent to the State Prison last July. They then laid thei: plots against his wife, and on the 28th of last month she was fonnd dead in a gorge near the house, witha bullet hole through her head. Suspicion was then directed against the droves, and the evidence is now so strong that their punishment is deemed certain. A petition for Strung’s pardon is in the Governor's hand. a em ABLAZE WITH Dyamonps.—Mrs. Astor, the wife of the hundred millionarie of New York, appeared at a party given at her Fifth Avenue residence one even- ing last week, at which she literally blazed with diamonds. On each of her shonlders she had four stars, the size of silver dollars, made of diamonds. Her hair was set thickly with diamonds, and her head secmed aflame with them. There was a diamond bandeau upon her brow. She had diamond earings, and a diamond necklace ot magnificent proportions. Upon the two sides of her chest were two circles of diamonds about the size of the palm of the hand. From them depended lines and curves of diamonds reaching to her waist, around which she wore a diamond girdle. On the skirts of her dress in front were too large peacocks wrought of lines of diamonds. There were rosettes of diamonds on her slippera. ‘There were diamonds, large or small, but in every variety and form, all over her dress and persons wherever they could be artistical- ly placed. She présenced an extraordin- ary, dazsling spectacle. A connosseur in precious stones, who was present, says the diamonds she wore could not have cost not less than a million dollars. A BEAUTIFOL FANCY. Kingsley’s ‘Primitive Civilization’’ is valuable as an attempt—by a theologian of great abilities and profound learning— to combate the scientific theory of the development of a man and civilization. Mr. Kingsley said he knew nothing at all about the matter, but he believed that the human race sprung from one pair. Of the origin of civillization he confessed an equal ignorance, but he had dreamt con- cerning it, and his dream was that the beginning of civilization was supernatural What, said Mr. Kingsley, if the first few chapters of the most ancient and sacred book should point, under whatever syms bola, to “the actual and only possible” origin of civilization—the education of a man, or a family, by beings of some high- er race than man. And then he proceeds: to say: “Recollect that the three oldest peo- ples known to history on this planet are Egypt, China, and Hindostan. Back of these there loom up, out of the darkness of legend into the as yet dim dawn of history, wbat the old Arabs call races of pre-Adamite Suitans—coloesal monareh~ ies, with fixed and often elaborate laws, customs, creeds, with aristocracies priest~ hoods—seemingly always of a superior and conquering race; with a mass of common folk, whether free or half free, composed of earlier conquered races ; of imported slaves, too, and their descendants. But whence comes the royal race, aristocracy, the priesthood? ‘They do not know themselves. They have cross- ed the neighboring mountains ; they have come by sea, like Dido to Qarthage. like Manco Cassac and Mama Bello to Ameri- ca—and they have sometimes forgotten when. But they have come from afar, and they are wiser, stronger, fairer than the aborigines. They are not sure that they are not descended from gods. They are the Children of the Sun, or what not.” This is a very preity dream, but after allitis only a dream. Scientific men will hardly give it a thought, and Darwin will only smile at it. But still it is so pleasant to cherish these ideas of our ori~ gin that good, easy-going people will thank Mr. Kingsley for having attempted to reconcile Genesia with the superstitions of the Aryan race.

In con- nection with this subject the St. Louis Republican says it is estimated that charch rty in Massachusetts amounts to at east $25,000,000: The population of that State is given in round numbers at 1,500,000, and thereis chareh aceommo- dation for only 900,00 persons who could not get iato the churches if they wanted to, and yet are indireetly ta for the support of privilleges it is: impossible for them to enjoy.

They, too, are indir- ectly taxed for maintenance of an institux tion of which they have no desire to avail themselves. The Republican goes on to comment thus : “The subject is a delicate one, and has hitherto been very generally avoided in the discussions of all legislative bodies ; but the time is coming, if, indeed, it bas not already arrived, when it must be dis~ cussed thoroughly and settled finally. We confess that we can see no more rea- son—under a government like this of ours —for exempting church property, par- tially or wholly, from taxation, than there would be for building the churches them- selves out of the public treasury. If church and State are separate, having no sort of connection with each other, why should the latter grant exclusive privileges t. the former? Why should not ecclesias- tical establishments stand on precisely tle same footing a= every other establish. ment, and contribute their shares to the support of the government ?” + ~-<E> —— Froin the Leavenworth Times. A Grange Burial. How the Order Put Away Their Dead The first burial of a member of the Patrons of Husbandry with the honors of the order, that has come to oar notice, took place a few days since in Kickapoo, when the remains of Henry Bolin were consigned to their last resting place with all the pomp and funeral pageant of the Granger burial service. Mr. Bolin was a prominent member, and the attendance was very large, e@™me 400 persons being preeent, ‘I'he programme of the barial was about as follows : On leaving the residence of the de- ceased, the hearse which contained the remains was flanked on either side by three pall-bearers, who walked with uncovered heads and regalias draped in mourning.— Following the hearee came the relatives of the deeeased, and next marched the Sisters of the Order clad in full regalia. The Brothers came next, and following them the vast concourse of people, who had come from far and near to witness the ceremonies. ‘Ihe remains were first taken to the charch, where a priest went through a service peculiar to the Catholic chureh, of which the deceased was a member.— When the exercises had been concluded, the procession took up its march for the cemetery, where the Granger faneral rites were performed. ‘The coffin was placed ou supports directly ever the open grave, and remained there until the impressive and interesting service was concladed.— G. B, Coffin, Master of the Fianklio Grange, condacted the ceremonies. When the brothers and sisters of the grange of which the deceased was a mom- ber had assembled about the grave, the Master read a selection from the burial ritual, followed by a second selection by the Chaplain, and then the members re- peated slowly and solemnly the Lord’s prayer, closing with a beautiful and ap- propriate hymn. he Brothers of the Order then stepped to the grave and threw into the opening several bouquets of flow- ers and evergreens. A short, but power- ful address was next delivered by the Chaplain. While the coffin was being lowered into the grave, a beautiful and soul inspiring hymn was sung, and during the singing the sisters strewed bouquets of flowers upon the descending coffin un- til it reached the wooden box at the bottom of the grave. ‘The Master then sprinkled a portion of dirt thrown from the grave over the coffin, and the service closed with the solemn benediction of the Chaplain. Taken throughout the ceremonies were very beautiful and impressive. This was the first burial of a Granger in the county, and, if we are correctly informed, in the State—that is, with the ceremonies of the Order. i A Hundred Years Ago. One hundred and ten years ago there was not a single white man iu what is now Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana, or Ilinois.— Then, what is uow the most flourishing part of the United States, was as little known as the country in the heart of Africa itself. It was not till 1776 tha Boone left his home in North Carolina to become the first settler in Kentucky. And the pioneers of Ohio did not settle till twenty years later still. Canada belong- ed to France 115 years ago, and Washing- ton wasa modest Virginia Colonel, and the United States the most loyal part of the British empire, and scarcely a speck on the political horizon indicated the struggle that im a scere of years was to lay the foundation of the greatest Repub-~ lic of the world, A hundred years ago there were bat four small newspapers in America; steam engines had not been imagined, and loco- motives, and railroads, aud telegraphs, and friction matebes, and revolvers, and pereussion caps, and breech loading guns, and stoves, and furnaces, and gas for dwellings, and sewing machines, and India rubber shoes, and anthracite coal, and and crome paintings, and oil, aa free echools, and sprin mattresses, wood vings, an Brussels carpet, ged evan Sess and greenbacks, end cotten and woolen facto-~ ries, in anything like the ot meaning of terms, were utterly unknown. A handred years ago the spioning wheel was in almost every fami » and cl@hbing was span and woven and made up in the household, and the printing press was a cumbrous machine, worked by hand ; aud a nail, ora brick or a knife, or 4 pair of shears or scissors, or a razor, or wooven pair of stockings, or an axe, or hoe, or shovel, or a lock or key, ora plate of glass of any size, was not made in what is now the United States. Even in 1790 there were only seventy-five post- offices in the country, and the whole ex- tent of our post-routes was leas than nine- teen hundred miles. Cheap postage was uuheard of, and had any one suggested the transmiasion of messages with light- ning speed he would have been thought utterly insane. ‘The microscope on the one hand, and the telegraph on the other, were in their infancy as instruments of science ; and geology ond chemistry were almost unknown. In a word, it is true that to the century passed have been allot ted more improvements in their bearings ou the comfort and happiness of mankind, than to any other which has elapsed since the creation of the world.—Topeka (Kan- sas) Record, oo From the Courier-Journal. Preparations for the Wedding at the White House. And now it is ru.aored that Miss Grant’s wedding is to be hastened, anc the names of her five bridesmaids are given. ‘hese are the Misses Borie of Philadelphia, nieces of the ex-Secretary of the Navy; Miss Drexel, daughter of the Philadelphia bauker; Miss Kitty Cooke, and Miss Anna Barnes, daughter of tne Surgeon.

When the elder Mr. Sarteris aud his son mct Miss Grant on the steamer coming from England last October year, they were ou their way to Michigan, where Mr. Sartoris owne lands, and he intended to locate this his second son in this State, for him to earn his own living. ‘The sudden death of the eldest son took place while they were traveling in the West, and a tele- gram was sent to President Grant to learn their whereabouts and inform them of the sad news. Of course they retained to England immediately upon receipt of this intelligence. Now that the young man has such different prospects, he will not cultivate wild lands in Michigan, but take his bride to his ancestral halls.

Among the who drifted over to New York ew avre, a little while ago, says the Wilmington, Del., Every Evening, wasa young Freveh girl named Louise Damont. Her desti< nation was Newark, Delaware, where she had a distant female relative living in in- digent circumstances, and, as she believed the oaly surviving kin she had in the world. By some mistake, owing to her inability to speak the English language, she took a train on the Delaware, Lacka- wanna aod Western road and got off at Newark, N.J. When she was.informed of her error she bought a ticket to return to New York on the next train, but on account of a very remarkable occurrence she was induced to change her mind. As the girl sat in the depot, downcast in spirits, alone in a strange land and al- mort penniless, visions of her home in “La Belle France,, crossed her miod.— She thought of ber mother, who had re- cently died, of her only brother who fell with his father as they fought side by side at the terrible battle of Saarbruck, and as she mused upon her past joys and pies- ent loneliness, she unconsciously toyed with a large gold locket that was suspend- ed by a strong silver chain from her neck, while tears, trickled down her cheeks.— She was a Lrunette of the loveliest type, and her jet black, wavy hair was arrang- ed with such exquisite taste that it made the broad, high forehead, expressive brown eyes, and graceful, full throat appear to the best advantage. While Louise was abstractly playing with her locket there came into the depot a tall ‘and handsome gentleman, about sixty years of age. He had something of a military Learing, and his countenance indicated intelligence and refinement.— The girl’s appearance immediately at~ tracted his attention, and as he was wait~ ing for a train be occupied the time in watching her. As he walked leisurely to and fro in the ladies’ room he came near to where the girl was sitting just as she opened the locket and reyealed a well- known face that was the exact counter- part of a picture he had at home in his library. It represented the Empress Josephine, the deceased wife of Napoleon Bonaparte. The gentleman immed‘ately cet he girl, in good French, where she obtained the picture. She replied with much simplicity : “My mother gave it to me.”’ Requesting the favor of examining the locket, he took it in his hand, and with great astonishment, read the following inscription : “Josephine to Hortense De Miratel, 1812.” “My mother was a Miratel,’’ said he, scanning the beautiful French girl’s fea- tures closely, ‘“‘and,” he added, as a light seemed to flash in upon his confused ideas “she was a sister to Hortense De Miratel, who, for some act of faithfulness to the unhappy Josephine, received this locket and pottrait as a reward. My good girl, who are you anyhow !"’ The child then related her story—how her father and brother had been killed in the battle, and her mother had recently di:d ; that she had committed her to the care of the only relative that she be~ lieved to be living, at Newark, in this State. The gentleman then being satiefiied that the girl was his own niece, disclosed his own name. Victor Provost.

In response to lettzrs of inquiry, State Treasurer Jenkins has given the follow- ing opinions for the guidance of those interested : Peddlers of liquor, if the liquor is manu- factured in the State, or if the peddler is the manufacturer or agent of the manufac- turer, will not be required to take out @ peddler’s license, but must pay the tax imposed upon all persone dealing in the same species of merchandise, the same te be paid to the Sheriff of the County in which the liquor is manufactared. Parties purchasing liquor in the State to sell again must pay fre per cent. tax on all purchases, provided the tax on the said liquor bas not already been paid by some wholesale dealor in liquor in the State. Those interested are referred te section 10, schedule B. of the Revenue Act for 1873-'74. ‘The form of license to be given by Sheriffe to all classes of business men designated in this law, is provided for om page 38 of the Revenue Act. ———_—~or—____—_—— Dorina the process of churning 6 certain uniformity of temperatare must be observed or the butter will be soft and spongy, instead of being firm and compaet. ‘The agitation, also, of the cream should be regular—neither too quick nor toe slow. Ifthe agitation is too quick the butter will make and unmake itself before the charner is aware of it, as too rapid motion induces fermentation, which, when it bas reached a certain point, is entirely destructive of anything like the poesibili- ty of making even moderately good or well tasting butter. If, on the other hand, the motion be too slow, the agitators in the churn fail to prodace the desired aration of the component parts of cream, and the consequence is that after a good deal uf time spent in lazy action, the churner is just as far from his batter as he was at the beginning of his labors. The best temperature for the cream ia churning is from 50 to 60 degrees.

Secondly, they pay for the privilege of carrying on business as merchants, a license tar, equtal to one-fifth of one per cent on the estirhated amount of purchases. The merchant must list his property to the Assessor. He mhst pay his license tax directly to the Sheriff and account with him. The mode of doing the latter is pointed out in sec, 15, Sched- ule B , No merehant ought to complain of this double mode of taxation, The tax on purchases is only one-tifth of oue per cent., which is far less than ( was in 1360, when it was one-half of one per capt, , Lt wopld be unconstitutional to ex- empt 4he merchant from, the property tax.

In pur- suance of this requirement of the Constitu- tiongthe Lygtstature atits Jast Session enacted (Chapter I, Swetiou 1, Act to ratse Revenue) as fyllows : “Thera shall he an ad valorem tax of— cents up gyp®opo hundred dollars value of real and personal property levied and collected,” and the Machinery Act (Section 9) in speci- fying. ‘Paes. ty be listed for taxation by the tax; EET ED UMerates (subdivision 7 of Section tr other personal property what- ever, includjug therein cotton, tobacco, goods, waresand merchandize. Jt is apparent from the reading ‘of these sections, taken from the + Aot to raise Revenue,’”’ that the merehant is required to Jist for taxetion his stock of goods, wares aud inerchandize. Now, as tu the tax on purchases. The ‘Ast to raise Revenye’y (Sebedule B) declares, *-That the taxeg.in this Schedule juwposed are a Jicense tar for dh privilege of carrying ou the busi- pess,or ding the act nained, aud pothiag iu this sehedulé eontaived shall be eoastrued fo relicoeahgeperson from the payment of the ad valorem tac on his prepartys’’ And farther on (Sectiog’ 12 of the same Act.) “every druggistfrerchant, &e., who cafries on the business of buying or selling good’, wares or merchandige of whatever name or description, shall in addition to his ad. valorem tay. pay ouy eighth (4) of one per gentum as a privil- ege tax on the ttul aunvuut of purchases in . aed out of the State.” These provisions of | A ihe Beyer Lair, ingtetedBe tdithe fon Constitution, to tax trades, professions and franchises, The tax of § of une per centum, or ($1.25) one dollar and twenty-five cents ou the oue thousand dollars of purchases, is a simall on¢ and & in posed as un addittonal tax upon the merchant, for the privilege of earrying or bis dealers, hutel keepers, auctioneers, persons who keep horses or véltteles for ire, ped- dlers, &c.. &c. Provisions similar to these have been ineorpdrated -im. every Revenue of the preseut Cunstitution. Whether the law has heretofore been eafosced or not, we are not prepared to say, but certainly. au ad valorem tax upon every description of person- al property has always been levied, besides the tax for the privilege of following certain employinents. In this connection we willtake oceasion to say that the Revenue Law of last year iinposed a tax upon solvent credits, but for some reason, as we are igformed, the tax same the County Commissioners were mis- lead by the case of Walker vs, Whitebead in the Supreme Court of the United States, as we know some persons entertained the opinion, from reading that case, that the Leg. islature could not tax solvent credits without violating the Constitution of the United States. But there can be no duubt now about this question as_ the Supreme Court of the State, in the case of Lilly vs. the Comumis- sioners of Cuinberlaud, have decided ‘that solvent eredits are property, and like other property are liable to taxation under our Revenue Law.” Every deseription of pro- perty is taxed, except the subjects mentioned in Section 1 of the Machinery Act (being in reference to property set apart for religious purposes and the propegation of the Gospel,) and au exemption cf vue hundred dollars in value of personal property listed fur taxation (Section 9, Subdivision 7). In regard to this exemption of one hundred dullars, we desire to call attention to Article 5 Section 6 of the Constitution asamended, which reads as fol- lows: The General Assembly may exempt wearing apparel, arms for musters, household and kitch- en furniture, or any other personal property not to exceed in value three hundred dollars. Before this section ‘of the Constitution was amended, the Legislature was only authorized to exeinpt certain subjects therein enumera- ted, to wit; household and kitchen furniture, wearing apparel, &e., not to exeeed in value three hundred dollars, but now the Legisla- ture has the power tw exempt any other per- sonal property not to exceed in value three hundred dollars. So the Legislature exempt- ed une hundred dol'ars in value of personal property generally, without specifically enu- merating the articles ; and it is discretionary with. the tax-payer what property he will have exempted. If he prefers to exempt his wearing apparel, aud househvid and kitehen furniture, he cau do so tu the amount of oue huudred dollars. We have noticed these provisions in regard to exempted property, to correct au erroneous opinion, expressed by sume persons, that the tax-payer Was com- pelled to pay a tax upon his wearing ap- parel. While.we are upon the Revenue Law, we will answer soine questions in reference to that portion of it which coucerns peddlers.— By seetion 20, of the ‘Act to raise Revenue” every person that peddles goods, wares, or merchandize, eteept manufacturers or their agents selling by sample, is required toe pay a tux of ten dollars ; and by section 45. of the Machinery Act, it is made a misdemeanor for any person tu peddle goods, wares, nerchan- dize, drugs, uotious or medicines without a license. We refer to the last section to call attention to the fact. that 2 js, nerely the repetition uf legislation heretufore existing upon the same subject, as by reference to sec- tion 44 chapter 34 of the Revised code, brought forward fu Battle’s Revised (Chap. 32 Section 45) it will he seen, that itis made a inisdemeanor to peddle without a license; and we refer to the last section quoted but oue, to show that manufacturers, or their agents selling by sample are not required to procure peddlers’ license. We have thought proper to say this much, concerning the} Revenue Law, for the information of those who are uot already informed upon the sub- ject, and not for the purpose of offering anu 'apology for the action of the Legislature; for, we think it is deserving of no censure ou this score. ———_ ~~ + VOLCANOES. As volcanoes are the sul ject of much concern just now, we thought proper to transfer to our colums from the Asheville Expositor the well written letter of the Rev. Dr. Kennedy, President of the Asheville Female College. Dr Kennedy is said to be a thorough seicntist. His | letter will be found to be very readable, EARTHQUAKES AND VOL- CANOES. Western North Carolina tole a Theatre of their Action! Bald Mountain in McDowell County, N.C. Mr. Enrtor:—At your suggestion I write you a few thoughts touching this interesting subject. As your readers have learned through various reports published in your paper, it seems that BaJd Mountain, some 20- miles dis- tant from Asheville, has presented some un- mistakabJe signs of internal disturbance, ac- companied with heavy rambling sounds or noises like distant thunder, and considerable shaking or trembling of the ground and _ rocks houses, &c., on its sides and cont}guous ya)leys. These, it is said, have been observed for several weeks past, and still continue at inter- vals. It is not surprising that the people Jiving on its slopes and near its base, shoujd feel consid- erable alarin. Such signs portend an interna] commotion, which may eventuate more serious- Jy than is imagined. : In this connection it may be interesting to recur to some of the instryctive and-well-ascer- tained facts concerning earthquages.and yolc3- noes. It is now certainly known that in every aN un purghasesy@ra_too plain wreqgife anJrex- |agplcanic disricts hey occur most 2 gation: pn w- | quemly andmoréFiole “4 plagation {and af@puby car ng oy the ae ay pore _ a pe bes iife_ \afiice wee re n of th earth. are required to pay this privilege tax liquor | Bi Law that has been pussed since the adoption} ine, pelnai, 35000 gedgraph was never collected in thiscouuty.

In-America the most extensive line of volcanic vents commen- ces at the southern extremity of South Amert- ca, and following the chain of the Andes, passes along the Cordilleres of Mexico into Californ- iver. The most remarkable line, of vents in the World is along the chain of islands begin- ning with ‘Alaska; on the soant.of “Ressian . merica and passing over the Alentian islands, Kamtachatka,-Japanese and Mogle 0 APs barng S023 to embrace Sn tage, Java, &c., and terminates in the Bay of enga}, embrac- ; Timilesifi lembtWe4 ‘From | Agored ‘around by’ the Mediterranea: shores|te the CaspianSen, a distance, ef 1000 miles in length and, ten degrees pf latitude, jn, bteadth, is another deeply interesting volcanic | region. It is supposed that between Cape. Palmas on! ihe W. coast of Africa, and Cape St, Roque on | the EF. ceast of South America, the narrowest part of the ocean, isa tract frequently distarb- ed by earthquakes, and isofa submarine vol- canic character. The shores of the Pacific ocean are almost circumseribed by mighty voleanoes, active and uiescent. “Is it beeause of the greater. depths. of its watera, and the greater heights of its con- tignous mountain ranges? What scientist will answer? Ifso, it may be its mighty basin of waters reach down more closely to the pent-up furnace of interior fires, which rage and rise and fall around old earth’s molten centre. : The seat of volcanic power is far beneath the earth’s crust. Because the melted lava is forced out from beneath the oldest rocks, as gneiss and anite—masses of the rocks being often thrown out with it. Again, lines of volcanoes plainly indicate some connection between the vents, ex- tending through thousands of miles under oceans and continents, Again, they sometimes eject more lava, &c., at one eruption than equals. the whole mountain mass around it. Earthquakes always precede a volcanic erup- tion; hence their causes must be the same. An earthquake paroxysm is very distinctly charac- terized. The following signs have been often observed: Heavy rumbling sounds are heard, like a carriage tumbling afar off upon a rough pavement ; the earth trembles, sometimes rocks to,and fro; fissures are opened on the surface, swallowing up everything in its way; springs | are dried.up and rivers turned out of their | course; the electric conditions of the air seems , ehanged ; brute animals become alarnied ; men are affected with dizziness as in sea sickness ; the atmosphere becomes hazy and the sun looks red and fiery ; sudden storms; heavy rain falls, pre- ceded by profound calms Immediately before the shocks occur, the air appears very still, &c. Such are some of the premounitory signs of an earthquake. If the paroxism be very violent, it usually produces deep fissures in the earth which open and shut again, or remain permanently open, and not unfrequently fire and smoke escape from these openings, even if the region be not voleanic. The most interesting earthquakes of modern times, perhaps, wefe those of Lisbon (in 1755), and of New Madrid, Missouri, (in 1811). ‘The great earthquake of. Lisbon began , on November 12th, 1755, and the shock imme- | diately fullowing the rumbling sound, destroyed | in 6 minutes some 60,000 persons. The sea | suddenly receded from the harbor, and return- | ing with a great wave more than fifty feet high, | sudmerged everything. The bottom of .the sea near the splendid marble quay of the city, sud- denly sank down, carryirig multitudes of pco- | ple, ships, &c., into the submarine chasms form- ed by the terrible convulsions of the earthquake. There they slept, entombed amid the rent 10cka, under GU feet of water, awaigng the ess tion power of the last day, TTumboldt estimat- ed that the extent of the earth’s surface agitated by that carthquake exceeded 4 times the ares | of all Europe. | The earthpuake of New Madrid, Mo., south | of St. Louis, which occurred in 1811 and 1812, | was the most important of which record has | been made inthis country. Terseveral months its paroxysms continued, extending over an area of conntry 800 milesin length, from the mouth of the Ohio to that of the St.. Franeis.— The ground rose and sunk again in great undu- lations, aad the surface is represented as_ burst- ing open in fissures from which mud and water were thrown as high as the tops.of the trees.— The gerieral direction of these chasms was from N. E. to 8. W., hundreds. of which were observ- ed by.Flint seven years afterwards, Lyell, the distinguished geologist, observed them in 1846. Some of the moyements were verical and others horizontal, the latter being always the | more dangerous, - These singular commotions continned until | March 26th, 1812,-when the cities of Coracas| and La Guayra, in Venezuela, South America | perished in an instant, uader whose ruins 12,- 000 inhabitants were destroyed. . The New ‘Madrid earthquake then ceased. The destruction of these cities by a contem- poraneous shock, has induced the supposition that 4 subterranean ocean of lava extends from the volcanic district of the Chilean Andes through Mexico and under the Gulf of Mexico, towards the Columbia Riyer in Oregon, and! may, therefore, have produced the disturbance | at New Madrid on the Mississippi. The Hot | River, known as the Gulf Stream, flowing from out of the West India and mid-Atlantic earth- quake and submarine volcanic region, may fur- | ther indicate that the Appalachian Mountain | t-system at its South-Western extremity overlics the track or pathway of this ocean of lava. Its mighty pulsations might shake Bald Mountain and other portions of this the oldest spot, perhaps, on the face of the globe. Again, the contiguity of our Thermal springs in Madi- son county further implies that they too may derive their warmth from a source of interior heat near enough the surface to make its influ- ence felt. And vet it is questionable, as a matter of fact, whether a volcano ever occured so far in- land; although Humboldt supposed he had found traces of some in central Asia. ‘Chey nearly always occur near the coasts of the great seas, or upon the ocean islands. If the solid crust of the earth be only from 60 to 100 miles in thickness, and if this end of | the Appalachian system be an uplifted chain of Mountains, with evidences of violently dis- rupted strata it is not unreasonable to suppose that our hot springs owe their heat toa déep- seated volcanic agency which has Jong been in a quiescence state. This state of quiescence may now be interrupted, owing to its inter- subterranean connection with some active vol- canic district, and hence, too, the shakings of Bald Mountain. But, Mr, Editor, not having had the oppor- tunity of visiting the scene of present interest and witnessing its phenomena, [ can’t adven- | ture any conjecture about it. I think the peo- ple of that vicinitv need not be unnecessarily alarmed. But let them and us watch and pray, for in such an hour as we think not, “the earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgres- | sion thereof shall be heavy upon it, and it shall | not rise again.” J.S.

A great earth~ quake took place at New Madrid, Missou- ri, in 1811 and 1812, the shocks continu- ing many months. ‘I'he ground rose in huge waves, which burst, and volumes of water, sand and pit-coai were. thrown at high as the tops of the trees; the forests waved like standing corn in a gale of | wind, and an area of seventy miles long by thirty wide was submarged and became aswampy lake. California is the most volcanic region in North America. “ ‘lhe crust of the earth there has been shaken with more or less violence countless num- ‘bers of times; but farther than the crack ing of walls, tumbling of cimneys, and the.overthrow of shaky buildiags, little damage has been done by them; and they are so common on the Pacific slope, that they have lost half their ter» rors. The most fearful earthquakes recorded in history are: At Antioch, in 526, when 250,000 persons perished; at Lisbon in 1655, which destroyed 60,000 the Calibrian earthquake of 1783, which buried 35,000 men, women and children out of silt forever, in one awfnal hour ; aud the one at Arequipa, in 1858, which engulfed 40,000 persous.

And they say, because of this disagreement among the white people of the State, there is danger that the, negroes and their allies will car- ry the State at the election this year, though the white elementHas a prcpon- derance.' If the frandifent debts are to be recognized as good and binding by the white party coming info power, the’ best interests of the tax-payers runs with pro- curing its defeat for the present. ‘The white people ounce in power, and commit- ting themselves to the’ validity of these fraudulent debts, fixea them to a reasona- § ble certainty forever a burden upon the peop'e, for pride, principle and consisteu~ cy will hold them to it. ‘The inherent dishonesty and disregard of the negroes will sooner or later bear fruit in the utter repudiation of all debts, the just and un- jast alike, if they retain power.

Only eight went over the average; half of the number were Englishmen of pure race, and the other half were mixed Scotelr, English and Irish.

The case will come up at The editor of a New York child’s pa» reeeived a letter from a lady subseri- oe recently, in which was written: “Our Anna died last week, after reading the last number of your valuable paper. A fat French lady says: “IL am so fat that I pray for a disappointment to make me ihin.

The story of Cleopatra’s pearl has been surpassed. In Saugatuck, Conn., at a supper the other night, about 100 pearls were found in the shell of a roasted oys- ter, all spoiled, large and small, by the cooking to which they had been subject ed. Ohio men don’t ask each other now to go in aud have something todrink, but main- tain personal friendship by passing around hands full of magnificently developed peanuts and gam-drops. Tue GRANGERS’S CREsT OF TRIUMPH. —The Ottumwa Ia., Courier has abolished the belligerent rooster as indicative of triumph at an election, and substituted an ear of corn, sandwiched in the sentence, ‘Pretty near a clean shucking.” It is an improvement. The Sumner obsequies in Boston were very imposing, and the tribute to his person- al worth very uustintingly paid. The crowd was siinply immense, and the process- ion to Mount Auburn, where the remains of the Senator were placed, was over two miles in length. The crowds all along the way were so great a3 to alinost impede the progress of the procession. Gov. Hart, of Florida, the man who so persistently refused to surrender M.S. Lit- tlefield to the authorities of this State, being dead, Gov: Caldwell will, we learn, lose no time in making a requisition for the rendi- tion of Milton S. upon the new Governor. We hope that this requisition will meet with more success than the preyious ones. “One of the most distinguished Re. publicans of Vermont,” writes as follows to the Springfield Jtepublican: ‘You arc right ; there is to be a new birth. I'he Republicean party has lost its savor, and is to be cast out and trodden undr foot. Iam ready for the new crystallize- tion, which should begin inj Massachusetts. But I fear the old fogies there won’t see it. Bring the good men together, and let those who seek only vnigar ends by vulgar means go with Butler and Grant.” FemaLe Fanaticisa.—The plucky, ebeeky, loud-voiced, strong-minded, Ama zonial females who figure prominently in the so called Temperance Reform moves ment, inaugurated out west by Dio Lewis, and other born agitators, are leaving him and them far bebind. These Rum-Re- demptionists have held meetings in Wor cester, Massachusetts, and in Harry Hills Dance House in New York City, in which they denounce the use of wine in the sae- ramental cup of the Holy Communion. To what extent of absurdity their Tem- tance mania may go, defies conjecture. eaction from this excitement is certain, and will aggravate the evils they seek to remedy.— Sentinel. The Church of Rome is “in difficulties” al this moment with the rulers of three Empires—Germany, Austria and Brazil. From the latter country the latest news is that the Bishop of Pernambuco has been sentenced to four years’ imprisonment for continued resistance to the laws of the State. This is the German matter over again, only that the Emperor of Brasil is‘ a Catholic, while William of Germany is a Lutheran.—Philadelphia Press. When Mr. Jobn Slidell went to France, as the commissioner of the Confederate States, he was possessed of property in Louisiana valued at 275,000. ‘This pro perty was seized and confiscated by the United States Government. After the death of Mr. S. his heirs brought suit to recover the property, contending that the Government held only a life interest, and no right to pass a bill of attainder disin< heriting the heirs of a traitor. The Sua- preme Court of Louisiana declared in favor of the heirs, which decision the Supreme Court of the United States affirms.

Beau once made a raid on the Baltimore restaurants. He determined to dine well that day, or know the reason why. He walked into Guy's saloon and asked for the proprietor. ‘Sir,’ said he, ‘I want the best dinner you can give me.” “All right, sir,” said Mr Guy: “walk in here,”? showing him into a neat little private room. , _ The Beau ate and drank of the best, and just after he had finished his cup of cafe noir, and had lit his havana, a servant en- tered with a falded paper on a silver waiter, which he gravely handed to the Beau. ‘What is this ?”’ inquired the Beau, “De bill, sah,” said the waiter. “Bill; T'don’t want any bill. proprietor to come here.” ~ _ ‘The proprietor appeared, bowing and smil- ing; he hoped there was nothing wrong, and that bis guest had liked his dinner. “Tliked the dinner well enough, and the wine,” said Beau Hickman, “bat { want to know what this means.” , That’s the bill, sir,” said the proprie- or. “Well I never pay any bills. I am Beau Hickman. I don’t pay anybody. Besides, you have no right to charge me for this din- uer, I asked you for the best dinner you could give me,” “Well, Beau, you have Tung in on me and got the better of me fairly. Now I'll not vuly furgive you for this trick. but Ill give you $25 if you will play this trick on the St. Clair, on the other side of the Way.” The next day the Beau fared sumptaonsly at the St. Clair and the scene was re-ene-ted. The bill was presented, and the pro; ctor wound up with “Beau. F’ll give you $50 if you will play this off on Guy.” “My dear sir,” gaid the Beau. “why did’nt I call here first? Guy bas paid. me $25 to play it on you.” Ask the Fromthe Milwaukes Wisconsin. A Moruer Trapes Her Son For a —-Doa About a month ago a German woman, who was living at Mrs. Cooke's, ia the ve on a to a large Newfou * rned bp the landlady, and she offer- ed to give one of her little boys and $5 “to boot for the animal. Mrs. Cooke accepted the offer, and the little Heinrich, who was about eight vears of age, was transferred to his new mo- ther, and the German woman took her dog and departed well satisfled. Thursday she returned and demanded the little Heinrich back again. She said the dog ate too much, and she couldn’t afford to keep him. But Mrs. Cooke would neither take the dog nor refund the $5, preferring to keep the boy, who had become very useful to her and loved her very much, A war of words ensued, and then a fight, but neither conquered, and they had to be pa by a policeman. Mother Cooke still keeps her little boy and she is dewrmined to do so if the law will allow hre. | The little Heinrich is indifferent as to the result, but prefers to stay with “Mamma Cooke.” ~~ Rowaa Couuty—Ia the Supertor Coart MatTTHeEw O.

The question is almost daily asked. ‘ What is the cause of the ‘unparalleled suecess of VINEGAR Brr- rexs?” Our answer is, that they remove the causo of disease, and the patient re- covers his health. ‘They are the great blood purifier and a life-giving principle, a perfect Renovator and Invigorator of the system. Never before in the history af the world has a medicine becn compounded possessing the remarkable qualities of Vixecar Birrers in healing the sick of every disease manis heir to. They are a gentle Purgative as well as a Tonic, relieving Congestion or Inflammation of the Liver and Visceral Organs in Bilious Diseases The properties of Dz. WaLKeER’s VixgGar BiTrers are Apcerient, Diaphoretic, Carminative, Nutritious, Laxative, Diuretic, Sedative, Counter-Irritant Sudorific, Altera- tive. and Anti-Bilious. —~ t Grateful 'housands proclaim Viv- BGAR BITTERS the most wonderful In- vigorant that ever sustained the sinking system. . No Person can take these Bitters according to directions, and remain long unwell, provided their bones are not de- stroyed by mineral poison or other means, and vital organs wasted beyond repair. Bilious, Remittent and Tnter- mittent Fevers, which are so preva- lent in the valleys of our great rivers throughout the United States, especially those of the Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri, Mlinois, ‘Tennessee, Cumberland, Arkan- sas, Red, Colorado, Brazos, Rio Grande, Pearl, Alabaina, Mobile, Savannah, Ro- anoke, Jaines, and many others, with their vast tributaries, throughout our entire country during the Summer and Autumn, and remarkably so during sea- sons of unusual heat and dryness, are invariably accompanied by extensive de- rangements of the stomach and liver, and other abdominal viscera. In their treatinent, a purgative, excrting a pow- erful influence upon these various or- gans, is essentially necessary. ‘There is no cathartic for the purpose equal to Dr. J. WALKER'S VINEGAR BErrers, as they will speedily remove tho dark- colored viscid matter with which the bowels are loaded, at the same time stimulating the secretions of the liter, and generally restoring the healthy functions of the digestive organs. Fortify the body against disease by purifying all its fluids with VINEGAR Birrers. No epidemic can tako bold of a system thus fore-armed. Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Ieai- ache, Pain in the Shoulders, Coughs, Tightness of the Chest, Dizziness, Sour Eructations of the Stomach, Bad ‘laste iu the Mouth, Bilious Attacks, Palpita- tation of the Heart, Inflammation of the Lungs, Pain in the region of the Kid neys, and a hundred other painful symp- toms, aro the offsprings of Dyspepsia. One bottle will prove a better guarantee of its merits than a lengthy advertise- ment. Scrofula, or King’s Evil, White ue Ulcers, Erysipelas, Swelled Neck, Goitre, Scrofulous Infammations, Indolent Inflanmations, Moreurial Affections, Old Sores, Eruptions of the Skin, Sere Eyes, ete. In these, as in all other constitutional Dis- eascs, Walker's Vixkoar Bitters have shown their great curative powers in the most obstinate and intractable cases. For Inflammatory and Chronic Rheumatism, Gout, Bilious, Remit- tent and Intermittent Fevers, Discasesof the Blood, Liver, Kidneys and Bladder, these Bitters have no equal. Such Diseases are caused by Vitiated Blood. Mechanical Diseases.—Pcrsons en- gaged in Paints and Mincrals, such as Plumbers, Type-setters, Gold-beaters, and Miners, as they advance in life, are subject to paralysis of the Bowels. To guard agaiust this, take a dose of WaLkrER's VIN- EGAR BItrErs occasionally. For Skin Diseases, Eruptions, Tet- ter, Salt-Rheum, Blotches, Spots, Pimples, Pustules, Boils, Carbuncles, Ring-worms, Scald-head, Sore Hyex, Erysipelas, Itch, Scurfs, Discolorations of the Skin, Humors and Diseases of the Skin of whatever name or nature, are literally dug up and carried out of the system in a short time by the use of these Bitters. -Pin, Tape, and other Worms, lurking in the system of so many thousands, are effectually destroyed and removed. No system of medicine, no vermifugos, no an- thelininitics will free the system frum worms like these Bitters. For Female Complaints, in young or old, married or single, at the dawn of wo- manhood, “or the turn of life, these Tonie Bitters display so decided an influence that improvement is soon perceptible. Cleanse the Vitiated Blood when- ever you find its impurities bursting through the skin in Pimples, Eruptions, or Sores; cleanse it when you find it obstructed and sluggish in the veins; cleanse it when it is foul; your feelings will tell you when. Keep the blood pure, and the health of the system will follow. ' KR. H. MeDONALD & CO., Druggists and Gen. Agts., San Francisco, California, and cor. of Washington and Chariton Sts.. N. Y.

'HE MAIDEN AND THE LILY A lily in my garden grew, Amid the thyme and clover, No fairer lily ever blew, Seareh all the wide world over. Its beauty passed into my heart— I know ‘twas very silly— But I was then a foolish maid, And it—a perfect lily. Owe day a learned man caine by, With years of knowledge laden, Aud him I qnestioned, with a sigh, Like any foolish maiden : “Wise sir, please tell ine whetein lies—- I know the question's silly— The something that my art defies, atone work, which is known to be at least 4,000 years old. This wood, and the on- ly wood used in the construction of the temples, is in the form of ties, holding the end of one stone to another in its upper surface. When two blocks were laid in place, it appears that an excavation about an inch deep was made in each bloek, into which au hour-glass shaped tie was driven. It is therefore very dffi- cult to force any stone from its position. ‘The tics appear to have been the tamarisk, or chitten wood, of which the ark is aaid to have been constructed, a sacred tree iu ancient Egypt, and now very rarely found in the valley of the Nile. These dove tail ties are just as sound now as on the day of their insertion. Although fuel is extremely scarce in that country, these bits of wood are uot large enough to make it an object with Arabs to have off layer of heavy stones for so small a_ prize. Had they been of bone, half the old tem ples would have been destroyed years ago, so precious would they have been for va- nous purposcs. eT se A Goon Harer.—Mr. William Lloyd Garrison is greatly distressed over the fact that the Massachuectts Legislature passed some kindly resolutions over the death of cx-President Fillmore. The same genial gentleman sharply rebuked Gen. i(irant for coming to the funeral of Mr. Greeley. He also formed the chief ob- stacle which Mr. Whittier found in his way when he tried to induce the General Cuart to expugne its disgraceful censure of Mr. Sumner. Dr. Johnson liked 3 good hater, but we doubt if even he would have approved these frequent and not al- together decorous outbursts of venom from one whose profession is philanthropy. I take it for granted, cotton planters, all can now see “the writing on the wall,” as plainly as did Belshazzer; which being interpreted, means this: “Cotton cannot be profitably grown on the plantation system, for a term of years.” Certainly eight years of painful exper- ience, with its heavy drafts upon rain, pati- ence, and pocket, or rather credit, ought to be worth something to men who do sometimes think, and look a little ahead, before they step. can make money, by growing cotton with the negro, on the old plantation system, or any oth- er system that implies a gang of negroes to be gotten together each year, and worked under the supervision of either planter, manager or foreman, such men are rare birds, and may he termed exceptions to the rule. To accomplish that which has been fully tried with failure, may be just the thing to stimul older ones of ardent temperment and iron will; but cool and calculating minds do usually take counsel from experience and obxervation, and leave such an arena to others, And this great arena, thescene of so much toi), care, patience, and almost saintly forbearance, trying to grow cotton by gangs of carcless, thoughtless, short- sighted, seems to me, sensible men shouid flee from fust- er than old Lot left Sodom, with this difference, however, he fled the country because it was doomed to destruction ; our people must stay, from the impending ruin. But can our people d. this? Can they stay in the cotton belt, raise tie fleecy stable and thrive, without being the unpaid and unthanked guardians of the short- sighted negro? I believe they are; did I not so believe, I would stay no longer in my belov- ed native South than to “pick up my duds,” wife and children, and haste away. I have great confidence in the invinerbility of the white race, in their ability toadaptthem- selves to all climes, institutions and cus oms.— Ilistory comes to my aid, and shuws what the race has achieved in other Jands and climes, and judging the future by the past, I have un- ‘bounded faith in the agricwltural success of the South, through the white race, with or without the identical asaistance of the black; while the negro is trying to ape the whiteman, and leg- And if there are men who still think they | and ungrateful negroes, ir one, that ! change their system, and save it and themselves ° to vote for honest nen fer cflice.

Yard after yaid was unwound and folded up by Minhman, and at last, after at least one hundred yards of wrapping bad been taken off, the dry, sluivelled mummy of a emall old man was visible—eyce closed ficch dry and hard—dead and dry asa emoken herring. Norodom tapped the corpse with the erowbar, and it gave a dull, wooden sound. ‘Tepada tosecd it up and caught it—it was as stiff ae a log. Then he placed the mummy on Norod- om’s kuece, and fetclicd a flark of oil, a a flask of wine, and a censer burning with some pungent. Norodom took from Lie hair a little box of ungent, and pry-~ ing open the mouth of the mummy with a cold chigel, showed that the dry tongue could rattle like a chip againet the dry fauces.

A breathless pause ensued—one, two, three minutes—and the mummy sneezed, thrice, £0 violently as to extinguish the fl. me of the censer. A moment later the So the old couple sat inthe roomy porch of the capacious old farny house, with the Michigan roses tossing litte pink billet doux into their lape, in scented showers, and the delicious odors of the fresh mown hay coming up from the meadow-flats by the river, a8 miserable an old couple as you want to see. Meanwhile Mre. Charles Remington, a bride of three weeks standing, was mak- ing herself supremely happy at Niagra. She sat on a fallen log, among the delici- oue shades of Goat Ieland that bright June day, with the lights and shadows chasmg each other over her loveiy face, and turning her long chestnat curls to coils of gold. Dressed iu white she was fastening a wreath of flowers into the rib- bons of her coquettish little hat, and singing some old ballard softly to her eelf. Evelyn Remington was very handsome —neither blond or brunette, she contrived to unite the charms of Loth in her rcsebud complexion, bright hair and miety brown eyes, and the smiles that dimpled her fresh, scarlet lips, were real smiles, mes- sengers straight from the heart. Presently she was joined by ber hus- band, a tall, handsome young fellow, in a white liven guit, and a graccful Panama hat. “Two lettere, Evelyn,” he said lightly, “and bad news in both.” “Bad newe! Oh, Charles!’ and the roses faded suddenly away fiom the bride’s chetks, “Well, not eo very tad, and yet not pleasant. Read, carrissima moi.” He tossed into ber lap a stiffly written letter, on a page of blue paper, signed “Abel and Mary Remington ;”’a keen ex- preesion of their disappointment in the marriage he had contracted, and an asser- tears. In short, Marian Chauncey became the light of the old farm house—the bright guardian angel of its low-ceiled rooms and wide, airy halls. She read the paper to Farmer Remington ; she compounded cake, jelly and syllabubs to the astonish= ment and delight of the old lady; she kept the two old china vases on the man- tel brimming over with a red rain of roses; she knew by instinct when to darken the room for the old man’s nap on the wide, chintz covcred sofa, and she was better than ten doctors when Mrs. aches. “] really don’t sce how we ever con- trived to live without Marian,’ said the old gentleman. “Bat she shall never leave us,” said Mrs. Remington, decidedly. “Marian—little bright eyes—l’ve got news,” called the old gentleman, one morning through the hall; “leave those honeysuckles for some one clee to tie ap, and come in here.

The old man did not notice him, but ate, drank, then tottered to his feet, the feebleet, decrepit old dotard that ever walked. In another moment he saw the nautch-girl slumber- ing wpon her couch, he ecuficd feebly to her, aud numbling, stooped as if to help his dim eyes to ree her better. With a glad cry the maiden waked, clasped him with her bright cycs full of tears. “Oh, Charlee, I’m so gorry,” He laughed and quoted to ler the Scripture phrase, “A man eball leave his father and mother and cleave to hie wife.” And now don’t you want to sce the other letter Evelyn?” | It was a eummone from the mereantile firm with which Charles Remington wae connected—an earncet entreaty that he would vieit Central Amevica, in their iv- tercets, immediately. “Cool, isn’t it, to request a bridegroom to walk off in that sort of way—for it is adjust a blue cibbon at the throat, and wonder slyly to herself what Charlie would say when he saw the new element that had continued go to interweave itself into the home of bis boyhood. “But I don’t think he'll be angry,” said Marian, in a half whisper, as rhe pin- ned a white rose to her breast, and pee ared to descend, in obcdience to Mrs. temington’s call of : “Marian, Muriap, come down and see my boy.” Charles Remington stood in the center of the 100m with his arm around fis radi- A : . ‘ : , |years.

A perfectly formed and most lovely nautch girl sprang out upon the stage, and wae haikd with universal acclama- tions of delight, everybody calling out her name, Luan Prabana, as if it were a word of good omen. Her only drese was a short petticoat of variegated feather- work. A wreatf of roecbuds erowned her soft, short, black hair, and she wore a pearl necklace, as well as broad, gold irmleta and apklets. With a brilliant emile she danced exquisitely for some min- utes to the accompanment of a single no longer a nonegenarian dotard, buta full-veincd, fiery youth, who gave ber kiss for kis.

Jerrenson Crry, March, 24.—From attorneys here, interested in the eourse of Judicial decisions, the following informa- tion relative.to a decision made. by the Supreme Court of the United States has ‘been ined. It certainly contains con- siderable information, if not some degree of comfort for the tax burdened people of this State. It will be recollected that judgments were rendered in the Federal Court against counties in Iowa and other North western States. ‘I'o satisfy these judg- wenta, thesé courts awarded a mandamus on the county officers to compel the levy and collection of taxes to satisfy these judgments. Some of the officers refused to obey the mandamne, and were impris- oned for contempt. ‘ben they resigned, Bat the court then assumed the powers to delegate the U. S. Marshals te go into these coanties and collect these taxes. It will Le recollected that this great as- sumption on the part of the Federal Courts over State authorities, the States claimed, and it had been conceded till these decisions were rendered, that the levying of taxes for State and muncipal purposes were sovereign powers and shat the Federal Vourts could not interfere. ‘The Supreme UCoart has now decided that when judgments are rendered on these bonda, writs of mandamus may be issued to the State or county officers, re~ quiring them to levy and collect the taxes to satisfy these judgments; but if these officers resign, then the mandamue can not be enforeed, and that the Jederal Courts cannot authorize the United States Marshal to go into counties and levy and collect these taxes. ‘This is:a right and important decision, one that will enable counties that have been plundered to have a say inthe proper adjustment of their bonded indebtednees. The Inflation of the Currency— The Baltimore Gazette .hinks of its Probable Workings. There is no doubt of the currency of the couutry being inflated to the extent of $46,000,000. ‘I'he press of different sec- tions differ widely as to their opinion of its working. We have heartly favored it, believing :hat it would work good results. Here is the way the Baltimore Gazette thinks of it: “All the great commercial. citics, from Baltimore eastward, have protested erh- phatically against any farther inflation of the currency. Boards of ‘Tvade are in aecord on this subject. Publ.c meetings, at which the divers‘fied business interests of populous cc mmuritices have been rep- resented, have passed resolutions in oppo- sition to inflation, and depatations have been to Washington to urge upon Cons gress the necessity of legislating in favor of contraction rather than expansion and in the interest of a return to specie pay-~ mentg at the earlest possible day. But the united voices of. these shrewd and cautions and: far sighted business men have been as the voice of one erying in the wilderness. ‘The impoverished South and the depleted West join in the demand that the volume of the currency be increas- ed ; the crowds of spceulatora every where clamor for it, and Congress has shown an evident inclination to grant all that they ask. ‘I'be experience of the past teaches no leeson that our legislators are dispos- ed to heed, The notion that if moré eur. rency is iseued it will find its way to those points that are now bare of it, will be kept in circulation there, and will not gravitate as the existing currency does, towards the Eastern cities, is as puerile as it ia pee Money will be made cheaper y expansion, prices everywhere wilt rise, a new era of epeculation will set in, and the premium on gold will rise. After that will come a panic from over-trading and over-speculation and an inevitable collapse The debauch will be pleasant enough whilst it lasts, but the headach will fol- low—more likely still the heartache, and that sort of repentance that is born of bit- ter regret blasted hopes, and sharp suffer. ine,” ae A Terrible Scene. ‘ Immense damage was recently done in ‘Sherbrooke, Guysborough county, N. S., by a freshet. The St. Mary’s river wus swollen by the rain and thaw. A couple of miles above Sherbrooke there is a na~ tural dam of rocks acrdss the river, be-~ yond which for several miles it is ealled still water. ‘The ice on this portion of the river broke ap in consequence of the freshet, and flooded the whole of the val- ley. Ou the left bank of the river where Sherbrooke is situated the sceve was a fearful one. The flood brought down thousands of tons of ice and great numbers of logs. Whole trees were uprooted from the banks in the course of the torrent. ‘The solid ice below the village remained | firm, and the flate upon which Sherbrooke stands, became a boiling sea. Boats and canoes were in demand. Every house was flooded. The cattle were driven out of town by pereons on horseback. The women, children, and aged people were taken away in boats. Many families abandoned their houses altogether, while others took refage in the upper stories. Two bridges in the village, and a large bridge over the St. Mary's river, are gone. A vew vessel nearly ready for launching was destroyed, and mach timber carried away. The day after the flood the moan- tains of ice and the logs, trees and other debris became frozen solid, so that the villege is now imbedded in a frozen sea. & Ren No. h 9 North St.; Baltimore, Md’ at $1.50 a ago | remember that about twenty-five years Gen.

''I have known the solid granite cliffs of Haywood Mountain to be fractured by volcanic action for nearly a mile in Jenght, and in one instance, I have seen a detached granite rock of perhaps 2, 000 tons in weight which, lying a- bove one of the earthquake fissures was broken into three fragments. But the most remarkable freaks of these little earthquakes was that which split a large tree, bringing one half of it to the ground leaving the other half standing. I have no doubt that the newspaper men detailed to look into these mysteries, will gather many interesting reminiscences from the old settlers of those western mountain countries of the old North State, touching the periodical recurrence of these remarkable. little earthquakes. I have often wondered that the at- tention of men of science had never been drawn to these interesting voleanic disturbances in our North Carolina an mountains. —<~ -—-—— THE SANBORN FARCE. In editorially commenting on the Sanborn trial and acquittal, the New York Tribune says that it was evident from the outset that the United States District-Attorney in Brooklyn was practically conducting the case single- handed against the United States authorities in Washington. Says the Tribune : “The Treasury Department, far from rendering any assistance in the prosecution of officers of the revenue who were charged with defrauding the Government out of large sums of money, threw the most serious obstacles into Mr. Tenney’s way. Mr. Rich- ardson neglected or-refused to furnish him with the documents which he re- quired to lay before the Grand Jury, and Mr. Tenney at last obtained them from ‘this office. The reason for : the Secretary’s action is not far to seek. The slightest examination of this business covers the Treasury Depart- ment with disgrace. If Sanborn has conspired to defraud the. Treasury, men much higher in place and re- sponsibility have shared the crime with him. It is not of great conse- quence, therefore, that the Brooklyn prosecution has broken down. The case is really on trial at Washington. The real culprits are the officials who granted these infamous contracts, not the men who carried them into ex- ecution.” . With this, and the hundreds of other instances of the fraud and cor- ruption which permeates the govern- ment under the sway of the Republic- can party, before their eyes the honest people of this State will be asked in August next by these cheeky fellows to endorse the present administration by electing them to office. - “None for Joseph, if he knows it.” es —_———<—>-_ —_— Judge Bynum. The Conservative press of the State is just now commenting with much favor. and’very properly too, upon a recent dissenting opin ion filed by Judge Bynum in a case that went ey from Johnson county to the last term of the Supreme Court... The question before the Court was one direetly mavolving the right of counsel to conduet their cases according to their own best judgment and not at the dictatiun of the Court. Iu his opinion, Judge Bynum says: Three prisioners are on trial for their lives, and making several detences. Many witnesses are examined and the testimony is cunflicting. The evidenve is closed, aud the argument about to. begin. Just then, without any previous warning, the Judge announces to the prisiouers’ eounsel, ‘you shall have only an hour and a half for your address to the jury.” And without time or opportunity to rearrange and condense the argument withiu the limit. even if it were possible, and against the will of the counsel, the trial is rushed through, with unpre- eee haste, and the prisioners couvic- e * * e * e _ The jadicial annals of our State, it is be- lieved. afford no other instance of snch an’ exercise of power.

The proposed tunnel will enter the sea bottom at South Foreland in England and Cape Grisnez in France. Commenc- ing far inland, it will proceed on a light grade till the requisite level is attained, which will be some 180 or 200 feet be- neath the bed of the waters. ‘I'he Al- pine, or Mont Cenis, tunnel haa met ana solved all the difficulties of such a work, except perhaps that of ventilation, and, in regard to this, plans have been formed which seem, it is reported, to provide for all contingencies. ‘I'he material proposed to be tunneled is supposed, or known to be, chalk and clay, lying in alternate strata. ‘Ihe reporters say that drawings and specifications are already made, and now the whole matter is one of cost.— What remaining difficulty will be over- come; for the tunnel would certainly pay, and the present centary will probably see this suboceanic railway eclipse even the wonders of the cable telegraph and the Alpine and Hooeac tunnel. ee PerMaNewt WhitEwasn. —With the retarn of Spring come the usual inquiries for a good whitewash. We have only to repeat the following directions given be- fore, as follows: ‘Take half a bashel of unelaked lime, slake it with boiling wa- ter, covering it during the process to keep in the steam; strain the liquid through a tine sieve or strainer, and add to it a peck of salt previously well dissolved in water; three pounds ground rice boiled to a thin paste, and stirred in boiling hot; half a poucd of Spanish whiting, and a pound of clean glue which has been previously dissolved ty soaking it first, and then hanging over a slow fire in a small kettle inside a large one filled with water ; add five gallons of hot water to the mixture, stir it well, and let it stand a few days covered from the dirt. It should be put on quite hot; for this purpose it can be pat in a kettle on a fur- nace, A pint of this mixture will cover a yard square of the outside of a house, if applicd with a large paint brush. Se Norra CarROLINA—A PREDICTION.— The tide is turning. Before another year a much larger stream of immigration will pour into North Carolina. Our reasons for making these predictions are these : Ist. I'he climate is superior to that of any other State, mild winters and long, cool summers. Qut door labor can here be performed every day in the year.— Cattle and sheep can be carried through the entire year with little feed. 2nd. Productions:—The soil produces to perfection every grain, grass, fruit and vegetable peculiar to the north-western States; in addition, nealy all the valuable crops of the semi-tropics succeed well, with almost absolute freedom — from drought or failure becange of the great number of water courses in the State pre- cipitating moisture during the hot seazon. 3d. The lands are the lowest: in the Union at this time. Western lands aur- rounded by the same appiiances of civili zation, are selling for three times a= much per acre as the same quality of land here. A farmer there can. only work out doors about two hundred days in the year, and one hundred of this is devoted to making food for Lis stock to eat while they are idle in the stable.— Here, a farmer can do out door labor three hundred and sixty-five, every one of whieh can be placed to his profit, as his stock requires little fodder, hay or straw, to carry them through the winter, and 4th. Until recently, the outside world have not been acquainted with these facts—no effort was made to publish them. ‘The day of careless inditferences about these matters, is past. Active steps are being taken to let the industri- ous and energetic class in the North and in Europe, who desire to emigrate, know all about the facilities and advantages spread forth in this country by a benifi cent Providence for any and all who will come and properly utilize them.

Bnt the boarder. boltod the pancake in such large bites that the presence of the ring was uot diss covered, and now it is lost again. Atrocious ScounDREL1sm.—The in» significance of human life compared with a few cents a day added to or taken from the pay of a rolling-mill laborer - was -il-4 lustrated recently at Indianapolis. Fit mills struck, and their places were filled by colored men. Shortly alter midnight the fires were started under the boilers, and a few hours iater the engineer came along, tested the water gauges and found no water. He was about to start the pumps when he discovered that the boil- ers had been tapped and were perfectly dry. Had he not made the discovery in time, the mill would have been blown to; atoma, and every person in it killed to a certainty. It is not wonderful that strik~ era, no matter where or what their provo- cation, meet with little public sympathy when such atrocitic: are meditated by some of them. ‘Ihe canse of the work- ingman is incalealably injured by the fre- quent discoyery of such desperate efforts at revenge.— Chicago Tribune. ~~ Bowau County—Iu the Superior Court MatrHew O.

BY LOUISE CHANDLER MOULTON, We lay us down to sleep, And leave to God the rest ; Whether to wake and weep, Or wake no more be best. Why vex our souls with care ? The grave is cool and low ; Have we found life so fair That we should dread to go? We've kissed love’s sweet, red lips, And left them sweet and red, The rose the wild bee sips, Blooms on when he is dead. Some faithful friends we’ve found, But those who love us best, When we are under ground, Will laugh on with the rest. No task have we begun But other hands can take ; No work beneath the sun For which we need to wake. Then hold us fast, sweet Death, If so it seemeth best To Him who gave us breath That we should go to rest. We lay ua down to sleep, Our weary eyes we close ; Whether to wake and weep, Or wake no nore, He knows. _- — —- The Farmer Feedeth All. BY CHARLES G. LELAND, My lord rides through his palace, My lady SIVePPps along in sfate, The sage thinks long on mauy a thing, And the maiden muses on marrying ; The minstrel harpeth merrily, The sailor ploughs the foaming sea, The huntsinan kills the good red deer. And the soldier wars without even fear; But fall to each, whate’+r befall, The fariner he must feed them all. Smith hamereth cherry red the sword, Priest preacheth puie the Holy word, Dame Alice worketh broidery well, Clerk Richar@ tales of love can tell, The tap-wife sell her foaming beer, Dan Fisher tisheth in the inere, And courtiers ruffle, strut and shine, While pages briug the gasvon wine: But fall to each, whate’er befall, The farmer he must feed them all.

A decade is but as a moment in the lifetime of mankind, and yet what great changes, says the New York News, may be crowded into it, Lo king back ten years in our own national history, we are! almost startled by the contrast between 1860 and now. ‘The death of Charles Sumner provokes these reflections. Ten years ago we were in the agony of the war. Among the men who were then at the head of affairs in Washington, Sen- ator Sumner was one of the most conspi- cuous. Brief as the time has been be- tween the epochs, nearly all of those col- leagnes of the Senator have disappeared from the scene. One has but to turn to the list of Government officers and mem- bers of Congress in 1864 to relize thie. Lincoln, the President, ie dead ; Secretar- ies Seward, Chase and Stanton, and At- torney General Bates are dead, and Se- cretary Wells and Postmaster General Blair are in‘ retirement. Of the Justices of the Supreme Court, five—'lanes, Nel son, Greer, Wayne and Catron—are dead. Of the Senators who were with Samner in the Senate ten years ago, (and it is a fact that may surprise those who have not thought of it,) but seven are now left, tonwit; Morrill of Maine; Sprague and Anthony of Rode Island, Howe of Win- consin, Chandler of Michigan, Ramsay, of Minnesta, and Sberman of Ohio. Most of the leading Senators, like Suuner, of 1864 are dead, retired, or serving the people in other capacities. Among those who preceeded the Massachuset!s Senator to the grave were Fessenden, Foot, Col- lamer, Hale, Garrett, Davie, Jim Lane, of Kansas, Wright of Jersey, McDougall, Dixon and Grimes. And these who have gone into retire-~ ment are Ben. Wade, T'rambull, Morgan, Doolittle, Buckalew, Foster and Reverdy Johnson.—Wilson is Vice President, aud Hendricke is Governor of Indian. Of the men who were prominent in the House of Representatives ten years ago, Owen Lovejoy, Thad. Stevens, Winter Davis and James Brooks are dead —Boujwell is a Senator, Washburne and Schenck are Ministers abroad, Frank Blair is an in- surance superintendent, and Pendleton is in private life. Of the “War Governors” of the time, Audrew and Yates are dead, Morton and Buchingham are in the Sen- ate, and Curtin is practicing lis profession in Pennsylvania. An almost entirely new set of men are on the chessboard at Washington. ‘The changes of a decade teach us how transitory are the sweet floors of the White House to-day and saw the with their arms in the Capitol. as if the country belonged to them and their sway would last forever, where will they be ten years hence? In view of the gather ing political tornado, it is more than pro-~ bable that the ehanges in the next decade will be even more sweeping than those i the last. ~~» -—-— Wise and Brave. Presence of Mind in the face of Death— How a Young Lady Saved Her Life. [ Titusville Herald.] A short distance this side of Union, on the Union and Titusville Railroad, there is a very long and bigh tressel, and one upon which uobody ventures who is at all inclined to be light-headed. Immediate~ ly this side of the tressel there is a sharp curve in the road, so that a person walk- ing on it eannot be séen by the engineer of an approaching train until it is nearly upon him. On Friday last, as Mr. Wm. Tolea, engineer of Mr. Holmes’ train, came a- round the curve at a good rate of speed, he was horrified to discover a lady about the middle of the tressel, and hardly a train’s length of him. Quick as thought altbough his hair was making frantic ef: forts to lift his hat off. Billy whistled down brakes and threw back the revers- ing lever, while at the same time he knew that.it was an utter impossibility to theck ttre heavy train before she victim would be overtakeu, and crushed tq death and with fixed eyes he waited the catastro- phe. The lady heardthe warning whistle, apd turning her head saw the iron mon- ster almost upon her. Escape seemed al- most impossible ; to remain certain death; to jump on the grownd beneath, a distance of thirty to forty feet, equally certain without his consent, a misdemeanor. ! i death ; and to attempt to run ahead and escape was out of the question.

As goon as the engineer saw her action, he threw off his brakes and putting on steam hurried past as soon as possible, when she nimbly sprang to the track a- gain, and parsued her way as though nothing had happened. ‘Words From oney iting. . The New York Herald under the cap- tion “The Roll of Dishonor,’ cncases the names of the Senators supporting inflation in a black frame, suggestive of the black flag, piracy, robbery and spoils. It also remarks, “and now the Republicans of the West are openly allied with the ene- mies of the country from the South ina policy that leads by no hidden way to national dishonor.” “Indeed it is a signi- Naugh the Ai@ant fact that this measure which tends to dishonor the victor in the recent war, owes the greater part of its force’to vates, from States within the limits of ¢ lat Southern Confederacy. Out of the thirty- six votes for our dishonor the Confedera< cy haa the grim satisfaction of casting nineteen—more than half. ‘Throughout the war the Confederacy never bart us so badly, ne-er delivered so severe a blow. Perlaps the men who cast the nineteen Southern votes would be as little cissatis- tied at the ruin of the Republican party, on whose shoulders they helped to place the responsibility of this infamous measure; as at the full fruition of its posible effect upon the national eredit. It means sim- ply the repudiation ot the national debt.” ‘The New York World says, “It means that the Senators have deliberately dis- hoored the name of the nation. In the months of debate since this swindler’s trick was first proposed, has come the warning and proof that inflation meaut repudiation and ruin, ‘To say that Mor- ton and Merrimon did not know this, is to charge thein with intellectaal unfitness to be at large. ‘Their sophistries woiild be perceived to be sheer and palpable nonsense by even such brains a# are to be found in an Indiana groggery in an un- muddled State.

No man cau say he regards its legitimate results as desirable ends without proclaiming himself a traitor and a scoundrel.

It is also proposed that every three ycars, by universal suffrage, there shall be elec- ted 300 peers and 300 commoners to forra the Parliament of Ireland; that no peer created by the King shall sit or vote in the House of Lords unless elected by the people.

A Firreen-Hours’ WALK For LIFE. —A young man named George Falk, of Baltimore, swallowed, as he stated, three ounces of landanum and five grains of morphia, in order to end his life. There was but one way of saving him, and that was to keep him iu motion. After reliev- ing him as far as possible, his physician ordered that he be walked until he was out of danger. At half-past 2 o'clock Sanday afternoon he was put upon bis tramp for life, and was forced to walk in the open air as rapidly as he could. His | father kept by him for a long time, and a friend or a policeman assisted. After some hours the father gave out, and finally officors and friends grew tired. At last officers had to be taken from their beate and made to do daty in saving the life of the would-be suicide. When the walk commenced it was with great difficulty that he could be kept going, and so great was his stapor that at times he would al- most fall like a stick. Frequently it wae necessary to catch him and move him on. He-rected: at: times like-a dranken man, and ibe ain he would revive ponsidera- bly. be dreary, monotogces walk was Beat i theds ‘iohbemiteish patil balf- past six v’clock the next morning, when tHe physician consented that be should be rallowed to take rest.

In Egypt,-which has been for antold cen- turies the granary of the European world, a rain fall is a phenomenon which excites the wonder of the people.. In Auvergue, in Franee, we have seen thousands of acres of rough mountain laud, which, without irrigation, would have been al- most worthless, yielding three cuttings of lucerne each year of two and three tons to the acre. With a small brook at his command, a farmer may, without manure, eat from his roughest hill side heavier crops of grass ‘than from bis richest bottom land. | We believe the time will come when every brook in the country will be turned from its natura) bed upon our hill sides and meke them smile with bountiful bar- vests, Reformed by His Wife. How one woman reformed her husband is thus told by the Ciocinnati Gazette; A Hamilton man who fell, a few weeks ago, into dissolute habits, and passed most of his time in lounging about bar-rooms, while his family auffered for the necesea- ries of life, was startled, not long ago, by the entrance of his wife inte a saloon on Basin §t., where he sat playing cards with a party of boon companions. The woman boldly walked up to the counter and called for a glass of beer. Turning to the crowd she said, “Come, gentlemen, havea driok with me! If beer is good for men itcertuinly ought to be for women.’ The drink was diapoeed of, when the lady ordered a second for the ciowd, but made a wry face as she struggled to get through with it. Setting her half emptied glass oi the countr, she remarked, “I don’t believe I like beer, what else have you gout” ‘The woman wiro officiated at the bar enumerated the varieties *‘I believe I'll try Tom and Jerry,” was the answer and the crowd willingly helped her to dispose of a round of that also, her hus- band meanwhile smiling desperately a sickly mile, with an effort to show that he thought the affair a good joke. ‘Taking a seat then at one of the dirty tables, she sat down and said. ‘Gentlemen, I've got some money here which I have no other use for; let’s play a game of seven- up, at $2 a game, and somebody played with her and at the same time instructing her in the game, and she lost, of sourse, but manfully paid every time and as oftea treated the crowd as she lost.—Finally, her husband was able to stand it no lon- ger. He arose from his seat and induced her to acccmpany him home, and arm io arm they started. He has not been seen on a bar-room in Hamilton since, A Good Deed Rewarded We find the following in a Jacksonville, Florida, paper of arccent date: More than twenty years ago Major Waldo A Blossom, who is now in Jack- sonville, was a resident of Washington.— While there, chance cast in his way a young man named Larimer, in whom he became deeply interested. Larimer had been led astray by the inflaenceof wicked associations, and was.utterly diesolate aod dissipated—to all appearances, & meral and physical wreck. It is more than probable that Major Blossom discovered redeeming qualities in the young man, notwithstanding the depth to which dissipation had brought him, for the good Samaritan rescued him from the gutter, gave him a pleasant home, and as- sisted him by counsel and the aid of fine social influences to make himsclf a new man. After his reformation was affected, the young man returned to his parents, who resided in Colorado, and for a number of years his generous benefactor heard noth« ing of him. In December of last year Mr Blossom’s attention was called to an advertisement in a Boston paper, over the signatare of “Larimer,” inquiring the address of W. A. Blossom. He responded to the inquiry, and soon received a letter from the pa- rents, of his former protege. in Castello county, Colorado, informing him that their son, in dying, had willed his eee to him, in gratitude for the kine deeds of years agone. The letter, which feelingly alluded 10 this act, gave the sequol of the reformed man’s life. He applise himself vigorously to business after his retarn to Colorado, became an honorable and use- ful member of society, and in a few years amassed a large fortane, all of which, val- ued at $1,000,000, will fall into the pos- session of Major Blossom next June. No act of genuine charity is ever lost. Somewhere in the conservatory of deeds the plant will pat forth its blossoms and shed its perfume, perhaps io the balm and brilliancy of the eternal orning, per- haps iu the subdued light and murky at- mosphere of the mortal life. —_—__~-~s-——_—_ A singular marriage of several parties in Iredell eouuty took place this past winter. ‘Two brothers married two sis- ters; a son of one of the brothers married his cousin, and bis cousia married bis daughter, b Blood-Colored Water.

In times much nearer to our own, phenomena of this kind have been observed at various peintg in Europe, pro- ducing ridiculous alarms, and even lead- ing to actual eeditions. ‘The eause, or causes rather, of these soscalled rains of blood are now well uns derstood. Every one knows that they are to be attributed either to mineral par- ticles diffused through the air strata which are traversed by the rain or the dejectious of certain mothe in their last metamorpho- sis, or to the remains of infusoria carried up by the winds.

The Southern Soldiers. “Ata late meeting of the Augusta (Ga.) braneh of the Southern Historical Society, General W. S. Walker was called upon to epeak, and said that as the mind of his little daughter began to unfold, she asked him ove day how he lost his leg. ‘It was shot off my daughter. And in answer to farther inquiries on her part, he explained the reasons which induced him and _ his feHow-countrymen to go to war.

He felt that no pains should be spared in gather- ‘img up material which would give to their ‘children’s children a clear insight into the _@rigip, rise and progress of the Southern GQonfederacy. ‘The Augusta Chronicle adds: “In illustration of the fact that tauth will triumph, and high parposes be ‘duly admired, he mentioned the fact that during the presentation of the leading ters in a New York theatre, greatly to the detight of the large audience, the gaan with the ‘inevitable cigar’ appeared, + nd the persoaation was greeted with the - wildest applause.

Here is a pieture of African scenery from the correspondence of the London Daily News; “When Lieutenants Richmond and Woodgate went up with their company to build a redeabt; the thickness ot the undergrowth in the bash forbade any view whatever. By hacking at “this under- growth, by felling the smaller trees and keeping vp perpetaal fires, they have ele a considerable space upon the crest, and exposed a charming view. On either side rose lofty hills, elothed in n from base to summit. Very far off, in the misty distanee beyo#l Coomassie, is a faint shadow of mountaius. The level between, through which lies our road, is beheld through breaks of foilage exactly like that affected by the earliest of Italian painters. © Giorgione might have studied his three effects from this spot. ‘I'he plain lies misty and vague, its tones of delicate verdure fading at the dis- tance into a golden haze. High above the forest level uprise the pale green crowns of cotton ‘trees, disdaintal of lower growths. Creepers drop like a brown waterfall down the tranks. Great rans of fern encircle their branches, or hang their leaves like staghorna from the top- most boughs. A few trees bear @ crown of blossoms, searlet or pink, but not to match in mass or beauty the brilliant gar- den of Fanteeland. »Animal life, for all we see of it, might not exiet at all in this country, We hear birds and beasts sometimes ; occassiomally we see parrots fly over-head, ‘at a distance to skim the tallest boughs ; but few of us have beheld a creature that runs or flies except the insects. I meditate a short digression on the creeping things of Africa in some pause of the campaign. It is sufficient now to say that no country in the world can compare with this for variety and number of its inseets.” Another correspondent writes : “ A little stream goes clean and clear oyer some shingly pebbles, and bends in and out above and below the road among foliage rich enough to deck, not crowded enough to conceal it. ~ fmmediately after crossing, one: of the richest banks of flowers which I have here seen presented itself, the chief feature being a gay plant, whose name I do not know, very like a cowslip in the actual flower, but with a bright white leaf standing out as if part of the flower itself is behind each flower- head, and the plant growing into luxuriant maases on stems six or seven feet high; the whole intertwined with ferns and creepers innumerable. he bavk had a curious look—roots stood out from it as from the, base of a fallen tree, and by the irregularity and ruggedness they gave to it added to its picturesqueness and beauty, Yet the whole appearance of a bank, and not of a huge root, was there, from the completeness with which nature had deck- ed every nook and cranny. I was rather puzzled, and went around behind it to find plainly enough, stretching along behind it for perbaps, sixty yarda, the quite rotten careass of an old forest-king—now no longer, except by ita mere shape, distin- guishable from a mound of rich cartb, and covered all over with rich, high-growing moas and ferus and plants of all kinds.” Pe Easter Eestivities Among the Mora- vians. As most of our readers are unacquain- ted with the peeuliar manner in which the Moravians celebrate the Easter fes- tivities, we take the following extract from the Salem Press, in regard to the ceremonies occuring at that place at the time mentioned. ‘l'o a stranger to the “manner born’’ it is full of interest : “The Easter festivities commenced with Palm Sunday, and concluded with Easter Sunday — embracing many beantiful and sublime services—the most interesting of which we will mention. On Thurscay night the Lord’s Supper is administered, in commemoration of its establishment by our Saviour. ‘This is confined to the membership and is very solemn and ims ressive. “Guod Friday is spent in praying and singing —two services being held. “Saturday at two in the evening the love feast is administered, and all whio are admitted are pregented with a roll of sweet bread and a mug of coffee. ‘I'his service lasts one hour aud is one continu- ed strain of vocal and instrumental music —some of the stanzas in German. It is avery pretty service. The coffee and bread were introduced in the more ancient days of the Moravians as a kind of lunch —many coming for miles to attend the service. “Runday (Haster) the Salem Brass Band went through the principal streets, from 210 4a.m. and played a eolemn rdirge. At 5.16 the whole town imet at the church. A part of the service was read from the steps, the programme an-~ nounced, the procession was formed— beaded by the band—marched to the burying ground, where the Easter litany was concluded in a most interesting man- ner. Not less than 1500 or 2000 people were apon the ground, yet the silence and order of a funeral pervaded the whole as~ sembly. “The church which is a very eapacious buildiug, seated about a thousand people, was crowded at the ten o’clock service, which is impressive. Rev. Mr. Oeter of- ficiated and preached an exeellent and eloquent sermon. The choir, composed of splendid voices, accompanied by a magnificently toned organ, violinand born, rendered the music in a manner we have seldom heard equalled.” ee Few who have not. seen a Louisiana crevasse can imagine the wide-spread dis~ trees and devastation it causes. Accounts state that fourteen plantations iu one of the richest sections of the State are sub merged ; but this barc faet gives us very little idea of the danger te lite and de struction of property that must inevitably ensue from the suddea invasion of a tor- rent of water rashing, with the rear of a thousand then:ers, and the swiftness of a whirlwind, threngh a breach in the river. bank. tie stated im the latest advices from New (Qrieans that the water was running over the levee ia front of the city into the streets, which would be quite as novel as it will be disastrous should it prove trae. pand finally. as ee — : | The; Crusade udiated—The Tem q uegtion Un- touched, |’ vA “At first glaneé the retarns of the mu- nicipal elections of last Monday in Ohio do not seem eneouraging to friends of the temperance movement. We look in vain for evidence of that wonderful change of public sentiment which was to regenerate the great West if not the whole country, from the face of the earth. Not only the large cities like Cincinnati, Cleveland and Co- lumbus are reported as declaring against temperance, but town after town in the rural districts registered the same at the polls. There were nota few triamphs for the crusaders, but the drift of the tide was in the opposite direction: A friend. of the temperance movement writing to a Cincinnati paper from the Home of Moth- er Stewart, Dio Lewis’ most efficient fe~ male coadjutor, says that to tell the plain trath “Springfield, after fall deliberation, knowingly rejects the proposition to sup- press saloons; a clear majority want no law deciding what shall be drunk.” In that city the Common Council is evenly divided on the Temperance question.— More disappointing to the Crusaders, and sorprising to everybody, ie the success of the anti-Temperance ticket in Washington, C. 11, where the women’s movement was inaugurated, and achieved, perhaps, its greatest victories, and ‘in Hillsboro, whence, as from Washington C. H., mis~ sionaries have gonc into thé surrounding country to show how the liquor traffic may be extirpated by the women’s method.— The dispatches say that Franklin, so con- spicious in the early history of the cru- sade, gave a majority for the opposition, and that Waynesville, Sidney, Pomeroy, and other places equally celebrated in eonnection with the women’s movement, also voted ‘‘anti-Temperance.” Thus speaks a puzzled friend of the Temperance Crusade, at his wit’s end to with thoge enthusiastic and tneommonly false hopes based on the epidemie which in the Wést forced respectable: women to pray in gutters and to draw fora sea- son the eyes of the whole country upou them. : Yet, if. we examine the, matter, there is nothing wonderful in the fact that terro~ ism and interference with individual right which thinly disguised itself under the form of a godly crusade has‘been repudi- ated by the common sense of the commu- nity. It is an yld remark the Republics fail often to secure to the citizen a liberty in his private and individual life so com~ plete as that which despotism not seldom accords. It is to be hoped, though searcely to be expected, that this leseon will be heed- ed by the enthusiasta. At all events, they will not soon again fancy they have made a moral revolution when they have in fact only committed a series of nuisance against the freedom and the rights of in- dividuals to guide themselves, and to judge for themselves what is hurtful and what is beneficial —Norfolk Virginian. a he Finance Bill. The following is the full text of the bill introduced by Senator MERRIMON and adopted by the U. S.

T. Jackson, the chemist, ‘Dr. Jack- son, I presume?” said he, “Yes, sir.’’ “Are you alone?” “Yes, sir.” “May I lock the door?” And he did so; then having looked behind the sofa, and satis-~ fied himeelf that no one else was in the room, he placed a large bundle, done up in a vellow handkerchicf, on the table, and opened it. ‘‘There, doctor, look at that !’’ ‘‘Well,” said the doctor, “I see it.” “What do you call that, doctor ?” “T call it iron pyrites.””’ ‘‘What!"’ said the man ; ‘‘ian’t that stuff gold!” ‘‘No,” said the doctor, “it’s good for nothing ; it’s pyrites."” And putting some in over the fire in a shovel, it soon evaporated up the ehimney. “Well,” said the gentle. manly wan, with a woe-begoue look, “there’s @ widow up in our town has a whole hill fall of that, and I’ve been and married ber.” Few mea believe that anything gaad ean enme gut of the mouth of a woman-preacher, but the following sentiments from a sermou of the Rev.

It was theo peg- ont, and we breathed in it four months mote of life than it otherwise would have bad not we taken possession of it.

With these few remarks we take our public leave of public lifé, aud now propose to enter into & field of asefulnese, and if God is willing we will never go into the news- paper business again. een A Homan Monkry.—One of the most mystetious and unaccountable freaks of human nature, that we have heard or read of in a long time, has eome to light in this ecommunity.—Some time during last week a child was born in that part of the city known as Brooklyn, the head of which in almost every particular resem- bled that of a monkey. The child per- feetly formed in,every respect save the extreme length and slenderness of its arms, and formation of its head, neck and face, and facial organs.—The ears, eyes, nose, mouth, forehead and arms are undisputably ‘those of a monkey i. fall the characteristics of form and fea- tyre. Onthe head is a formation of pee fleaky skin, or seales—dark, ight and brown colors, resembling the skuil-eap which is usually worn by an organ grinder's moukey, and it would seem was intended by nature to carry out the representation. ‘The child was still- born and we learn will be preserved in alcohul for the benefit of science. me Lovep Hm Treiy.—Ellen Eyre left Wilmington, Delaware, for San Franciseo in company with a friend on the Ist of December in order to meet her betrothed in that place, but he being in the service of the Pacifig Mait Steamship Company, eound not obtain leave off absence, and she accordingly embarked for Japan, there being only one other lady paasenger, and afier a voyage of thirty. five days she landed at Yokohoma, where, on the 6th of February. the ceremony waa performed that made Captain Charles S. McCoy and Miss Byre one in the eye of the law. —___~»—- Our E.pexr Brotuers.—Mr. Darwin's “Missing Link” fias at length been found, to judge from an‘aceount of dwarfish ha man beings, said to resemble a race of monkeys, which is given by the Siam Weekly Advertiser: “On the Island of Borneo has been found a certain race of wild creatures, of which kindred varieties have béen discdvered on the Phillippine } Islands, ‘Perra del Fuego, aud in South America. They walk, usually, almost eréct, on two legs, and in that attitude apcacure about four feet in height. They construct no habitations, form no families, scarcely associate together, sleep in caves, feed-on snakes and vermin, on ants, eggs, and on each other. They cannet be tamed or forced to any labor, and are hunted and shot among the trees like the great gorilla, of which they are a stunted copy. When captured alive one finds with surprise that their uncouth jabbering sounds are like articalate language. They tutn up a human face to gaze at their captors, arid females show instinets of modesty ; in fine, these wretched beings are men and women.” The Southwestern Cattle Trade. We have very favorable reports as to the Texas and Kansas cattle trade for the coming season. The past winter, fortu- nately, was avery mild one ia all that section, and the drovers have come through ft, as arule, with their live stock safe and in good condition. If the Eas- tern markets recover their elasticity, and induce the drovers to come forward by paying fair prices, a heavy trade this com- ing season may be relied upon, and this will enable the stock men to realize some- thing for the heavy losses they had to sustain last year during the panic. Some & | forty thousand head are now on the Arkan- sas river, waiting for the grass to come up to enable them to come forward. At the same time, it ought to be added that the best authorities agree that this year wilt be about the last in Texas fora heavy drive, as the cattle are getting well thin- ned out, and the export is largely in ex- cess of the prodaction. The class will also confined to better stock, mostly beeves, instead of the young and poor stock usually thrown upon the market. The business is slowly but surely centring into the hands of a few heavy operators, who can afford to hold om for good prices and a favorable market.. Kansas handles about the same quantity of cattle it did last year, and the stock men there look for better prices.—N. Y.

Forney, in an editorial in the Philadelphia Press, said of Southern Alabama, witk more fervor than grammar: ‘The facilities for making iron for all parposes exceed any other part of this continent known to the business.” ‘Thomas Dunlap, Esq., of Philadelpia, Secretary of the National Aasociation of Iron Manutacturers, says, in his report for 1873, that Tennasee “‘is of the first importance as an iron State,” and that the East Tennessee ores, are ‘‘of great purity aod especially adapted to the manufacture of Bessemer pig-metal.” McFarland’s “Coal Regions of America” speaks of the “futare Scrantons and Pitts- burgs of the South.” J.

How the Connecticut Election is Rey garded at the National Capital. The result of the Connecticut election was much talked of in congressional and department circles to-day. A Democratic victory had been anticipated, but not of the overwhelming character which the returns show. ‘The Democrats having the Legislature will elect a Scnatof in place of Mr. Buckingham, who. went home in the unavailing effort to save him- self. It issaid that Mr. Wm. A. Barnum, the wealthy iron manufacturer, will be chosen, aluhon h Governor Ingersoll and ex-Governor English spoken of in the same connection. ‘he new Senator from Connecticut, whoever be may be, will be solitary one of the Democratic faith from New England. That seetion of the Union has not had a Democrat in the Senate since the beginning of the war. ‘The Democratic triumph in Connecticut, with the success of the same party in the im. ortant municipal elections iu various parts of the West, have added much strength to the grewing conviction that the Repub- lican party will lose the next House of Representatives.

Price, the millionaire brewer ot New York city, can boast of the most remarkable marital experience of any man living. ‘Thirty-five years ago when a poor clerk, he married Susanna Batler, in Birmingham, LEugland, but separated from her by mutual agreement a year afterward, and came to New York, Susanna married shortly after one Samuel Green. In 1843 he married Misa Caro-~ line Barton, a young lady of respeetable family in Bréoklyn, who was not aware of his first marriage. ‘hey had in the family an Irmsh servant named Bridget Fallon with whom, as it afterward appear- fed the Colonel became favorably impresss ed. Meanwhile wife No. 2 learned that wife No. 1 waa living, aud left her huss baod, whereupon he applied for au annal- ment of the marriage, which was granted, and since that time the Colonel has sup- ported her. Subsequently a report reach- ed him that wife No. 1 was dead, wheres upon he married Briiget Fallon. Bridgs et, however, was not’ refined enough to adorn his house, and trouble begau to | arise. Wife No. 2 made an attempt to open the decree adjudging her marriage void, upon the ground that it was obtain- ed by fraud. A commission was sent to England in the course of the litigation, and wife No. 1 was found, with a flock of little Green’s about her. ‘lhereapon the Colonel took measures to annul his mar- riage to wife No. 3, in which he has suc~ ceeded, altheugh he has to support her and the children. ‘die Colonel now fiuds himself supporting two families, with two women off his hauds who Lave born him legitimate children, and yet were not le~ gitimate wives, and the legitimate wife who is another man's wife. It is highly probable that the wealthy New York brewer is now entirely satisfied with the marrying business, and will hereafver de- vote himeelf simply to beer. a A New Power.—We are constantly complaining of the railroad powers and the money kings:aud other dorms of tyranny. anew influence has arisen in England, which threatens to menace the Parliament and sovereghty.

STEPHENS STaR- reD IN Lire.—When Stephens was a boy, two sisters, old maids, attracted by his brightness, adopted, educated, and destined for the church. Bat a few months of theological training convinced the young student that the profession had no attraction for him, and he announced to his benefactors his intention of exchang- ing the pulpit for the bar. Shortly after he was admitted to his new profession, a lawsuit arose involving the estate of the younger sister, the other having in the meanwhile died. . He asked her to let bim manage the case for her, but she, fearful of lris inexperience, prefeared look- ing for some older lawyer. Atlast one wrote to her whom she approved, and having asked the adviee of her friends she confided the matter to him. ‘The contest was Warm, vexatious and long; but she came out so triumphantly of what had been regarded ag a hopeless snarl, that she doubled her counsel’s modest fee.— The intercourse between the two had been by letter exclusively, she living in the country, he in a distant city, so that the trick which you have already guessed Stephens had played on her was, under the circumstances, quite creditable. Out of his fee he repaid what she had spent on his edacation, and his saccess in s0 delicate a piece of business was a fine be« ginning for a young lawyer.—Savanah Advertiser. ——_ +o The Loss of the L’Europe—A Graphic Account of the Rescue of the Passengers and Crew— Crimination and Recrimina- tion. The telegrams have given pretty full accounts of the recent rescue of the pas- sengers and crew of the French steamer Greece, and the safe arrival of the latter with its live eargo in New York, bat the following graphic account of the transfer of the passengers from the sinking ship to the Grecce will be found of peculiar inter- est as showing the dangers of the great deep : “The passengers had been for more than two days ona vessel in which the main pumpe were being driven night and day, and from saloon to steerage not a person easpected that anything but the monotonous routine of an Atlantie voyage was in store for vessel and freight. It wae noon Thureday before the purser received his first intunation that the vessel was leaking at all, in an order to prepare the ship’s papers for leaving the sbip at a moment's notice. Few of either men or subalterns had been taken into the confi- dence of the captain before this time, but the danger had become so imminent that when a steamer was reported to the cap- ian just atter breakfast as on the port bow punning west, the course of: the Enrope was changed, her speed quickened, and she to overhaul the craft in the dis- tance. The drifting smoke on the horizon grew more marked, gpars and smokestack came into view, and the engers of the Europe crowded on the deck to see the chase.

"A little stir below, and the signal fags came on deck. - The shi }was gaing to be spoken, and the nipbtert ves red and bing and white flags that ‘ean co: much in the signal code and 80 little out. of. jt. were fastened to the hal« yards. There was a pauee for the cap- tain’s orders, and-the passengers were startled at seeing a reversed ensign flying at the peak apd another signal of distress at the bead. A moment later and ‘passengers. on deck and below who tad overlooked these signs of comin red to call the :paaacagers were’ to be. ‘ees the offing at once. Thesame was cammunicated to the stee forward. There was a little eeatastent: ‘a rush for the boats—the signs of a panic. It was promptly stopped, and the fright Or its noisy manifestations ceased. In the cabin perfect order was preserved. Men on deck rushed below to do a little har ried packing, and foand the ladies gather ed in etill groupe ig the cabins waiting for inStructions.. Not a lady or child scream- ed or fainted after the first shock was over; the self-possesdion of every one rallied and preparations began for leaving. .Ore dees were given to put on life-preservers and it is worth nothing that enough were found inthe state rooms’and sbip stores to supply twice the number of :persons.— ‘The course of the Europe was changed again and in a few moments she run un- der the stern of the Greece, hailed the vessel and asked gesistance. The sailors in both vessels were ordered to tlhe boata, and as the boats of the French steamer touched the water the English boats were alongside. A heavy sea was ranning, and passengers on both: vessels declare. that it seemed impossible to transfer the passengers in open boats across the chop- ping waves that tossed the ‘two steamcrs up and down. It was done, however, with perfect sucecse, Every one of the eight boats on the Europe reached the water in safety, every block ran smooth~ ly, and every mau of the crew knew bis duty, and did it thoroughty well. Tbe captain had his men well in hand, and the orders that came from the bridge were obeyed cooly and promptly. Around one boat there was a moment's delay ; the steerage passengers crowded around it.— Two Americans stepped forward and pressed the throng back; one of them, Lieutenant Phenix, cut the canvass cov- boat was safe in the water with its erew, and only itscrew in it. Except their pro- per complement of men, it is the unani- mous testimony of all the passengere that the women and children filled the first boats that left the ship’s side. All the etiquette that governs on such an occasion was observed, and no frantic rush of men for the boats marred tlre scene. The passengers were lowered one by one iuto the boats, rowed across, and hoisted on board the Greece. The work was done well and done rapidly. There were near- ly 400 peraons to be transferred. Both vessels were lying now on the wind, itching and tossing, and every time a baa approached either, it came alongside of a moving, rolling iron wall, against which it would be destruction to touch.— Back and forth the boats plied, the cargo of lives was safely placed in the open boats, the oars took the water, and the boat went out of sight below a wave to come up again on another, and finally reached the other vessel to disembark its load. As the last trips were being made several boats were swamped as they reach- only men, and by the aid of life~preservers all were rescued. It was three o’clock when the signals of distress were hoisted, about half: past four when the boats took the water, and an hoor and a half later the Jast boat came alongside. ‘Mbe off- cers of the’ Europe clambered down the gangway. Captain Le Marie left the bridge and passed over the side of the vessel, and the Europe lay abandoned.” Bat one of the saddest features of the whole affair is the umlappy discussion that has arisen between the rescued and the rescuers, in which mutual crimination treatment and unfair dealing are made against the English. Captain Le Marie, clares that he was forcibly prevented from returning to hig vessel after having gone age crew which boarded the vessel for the purpose of attempting to carry It back into port was composed entirely of En- clishmen. Captain Le Marie is sustained in this assertion by his officers, On the other hand Captain ‘Thomas, of the Greece, as positively asserts that neither Captain Le Marie nor any of his crew ghowed any desire or disposition to go back to the L’Europe after coming on board his ves~ sel, that the salvage crew was entirely voluntary, and that he would not have prevented Captain Le Marie from Being aboard the deserted ship had he so desir- ed. Itis hard to reconcile those adverse statements, and it is to be regretted that two gallant men, who were willing to nsk their own lives to save that of others, should now have this misunderstanding. — AVENGED!

And I am to be bis wife, little Madge, this good man's wife, when the beautiful spring comes. I shall leave you, and auntie,‘and uncle to be all his. Bat this is our secret, little sister, and oaly you can share it.” And then ber hands relaxed their hold, and drawing the light scarf over her shoulders, she tripped silently on. They were almost there—nearing the edge of the wood, and tho stile was but a step away. Another step forward, and they Madge held her sister back. “Wait!” she whispered : two men on the seat, Cora. want to meet strangers there.” “No,” she said, drawing back in the shadow of the wood ; “it is Neil's friend, Willis Dean. We will wait until be goes. for I do not like to meet him.”’ Even asshe spoke the figtre arose, and the sound of his -veice came on the twilight air distinct and clear. “And what of this love affair, friend Neil? When ia it to end, and how? Are . you really in earnest, and do you mean to marry the girl ?” Cora Smith’s hand closed upon the arm of Madge till she shravk in pain while they waited for the answer; Neil Rowan laughed softly. “Mary her!" he repeated. ‘She is just the subject for a grand flirtation and _I assure you I have done the thing well. Bat for anything further—bab | I am go- ing back to town to-morrow, and this is our last meeting ; so be off, old fellow, for I expect her ev'ry moment.” Just fur one moment Madge Smith's heart stood still in awful fear, for she thought Cora was dying. ‘That white, motionless figure, those tightly locked hands, it surely was not the fair, sweet maiden of a momemt before. But the spasm pased, and without @ word, she a- rosc and glided noislessly away and Madge followed ber in silence. Neil Brown waited until the ight had all died out of the West, and the dew lay like summer rain on tRe grass at his feet. His cigar was smoked down to ashes, and his lazy reverie was brokeu by the cry of the whip poor-will. “She isn’t coming to-night,” he said, mentally, ‘that is certain. The sehem- ing auntie up yonder managed to prevent it this time. Oh, well, it saved a scene. I will drop a loving farwell note and so it ends—atummer’s amusement. Ha, bam!” and Neil Rowan strolled homeward, sing- ing, half unconsciously, “I won't bave her, I know—I won’t have her, I know —I don’t carea straw who has her, I know.” ‘The farewell note came to Cora Smith the following night, bat the fever-bright , eyes never rested on the creamy page, for , ere the insane light gave place to reason again, death sealed the white eye-lids. — | To such natures as this girl's love is life ; ' and the rade blow that woke her from the one bright dream of ber yoath, snap- ped the elender cord that bound her frail | epirit to earth, and oat of the depths of ber awfal grief, the kindly band of death Ted her to the mountain-top, where is bailt the city of the New Jerusalem.

It is doubt- ‘leas wise to fill these offices by annual ‘eléétions, as, otherwise, it might happen that some most unacceptable person should possession of Town authority and abuse it. It is well, therefore, to bave the mattcr under control, over it that discretion which the interest att@ the good name of the Town may req@ire. And the selection of officers for the Yown is no trivial thing. It is cer- \ainkya matter of grave importance, in- volving much more of reputation and aneral prosperity than most voters take the time to consider a Town that acts wisely in this’ matter lays the foundation for a good fame and the general welfare. | A town that selects unwisely shall just as and exercise | certainly reap ah evil harvest ; for in this mattcr as in other things: a man shall reap according as he sows, ‘I'here is ‘virtue, intelligence, property, and repu- tation enough in Salisbury, liable to be affected by the character of ite officers to vempt every citizen to the pursuit of a line lof policy looking constantly to their pro- itection, No man who wakes thia place his home, where he expects to rear his family } and build his furtune, should ever suffer him self to be influenced by prejudice, passion, or favoritism in the ‘selection of ‘Town officers. Reason, right, and a due regard for his own and the best interest.of the community, should be the rule of govern- | ment. Publie officers should be men of \intelligence and = moral worth—should be able to stand before the world nnabashed, in themselves respectable, and reflecting credit upon the citizens whom they rep- resent. Let not those be chosen whose very presence in publie bringeth shame ; but rather those to whom we may point with pride as. faithful, capable and exem- | plary. The foregoing is not meant as a reflection against members of the present board or any who may have been spoken pf as candidates in the approaching elec- tion. Our remarks deal with subjeets, not individuals. Fach vater must determine | merits of indiyiduala,. Op..the contrary, pit, thespresent board of officers are worthy mepyand have proved themeeclves faithful to the pnblic trust, they are not only en- titled to tp aealinds of citiziens, but to their continncd confidence and support. p Uhey are better qeeliaet for service now than when elected a year ago, and it is certainly worth the trouble to inquire whether they will consent to bear the public burden another year. Frequent changes without sufficient cause cannot be desirable. It is the surest way possi- ble to perpetnate incompetency and irreg- ularity in all the affairs of the Town.

The Manchester Union speaks the sen- timents of the sturdy Democracy of New Hampshire when it says: “We are obliged to agree with Mr. Grant that neither he nor Congr:ss ean do anything for South Carolina. Suppose the govern- ment of our State should tax use ten times what it does, and steal the money—what eould Congress do? Suppose this taxing influence was too powerful to be over- thrown by the ballot —what could we do? We could not resist or repudiate, for the General Government will sustain the rob- bers. Wecould only pray for such a government as will respect the primary right of self defense.”’ When Napoleon the Great died at 8: Helena, an English physiean took charge of ins heart, depositing it in a silver basin filled with water. Two tapers burned near it, bat the custodian felt nervously anxious while watching it throagh the night, and did not sleep. _—‘In the silence of midnight he heard a rustling sound, then a plugge into the water and a re- bound on the floor—all occuring with the quickness of thought.

Indeed I do not expect to see of- tener than once in tén years seasons as fa- vorable as 1371 and 1872, and I question whether we shall ever again see the amount of corn in [linois, or indeed in the corn re- gion, we saw in 1872. As compared with the wheat region the corn region is rather limited iu area. lcousider the corn region proper w be also par excellence the grazing regiun, and to be confined tu that climate and area where fifty bushels of corn is the average yield fur good cultivation, and where perinaneuit pastures may be kept aud main- tained through the year—-pastures which will earry horses, sheep and cattle through even the culdest winter, with the assistance: of hay And straw stacks to run to in rough weather. Through all this region of corn and cattle, hay, grass, hogs and bad roads the tendency is to more and more pastures every year—to less corn to be cousumed off the farm and less wheat and other sinall grain." ' ————~-_____. The Jlavana correspondent of the New Orleans Picuyune says: The Cubans are making great havoc in the sugar plantations of this island. ‘I'he destrne- tion of property is fearful. Numerous fires of sugar estates are reported in the juriediction of Remedios, Cienfuegoes and the whole surrounding country. ‘The object in burning plantations is to pre- vent the Spanish Government: from ob- taining a revenue from its exportations of sugar. The patriot army throughout the island is estimated at 35,000. Of late they have beea successful in several -en- gagementa with the Spaniards. Although the war may be prolonged for one or two years, nobody here doubts that the Cu- bans will achieve their independence. In speaking of Lee and Grant “the Uector and Achilles of the American “Tliad,” the London Saturday Review says: “Vhe Virginian’s character was of that noble kind which retains its full measure of dignity in the shadow of ad- versity. ‘Though ‘nothing succeeds like success,’ yet, in the last meeting of the hostile generals, our admiration and res~ pect are given chiefly to him who surren- ders his sword ; and viewing them as they appeared in latter years, when their for- tunes diverged so widely, the President of the great republic looks small and commonplace compared with the broken- hearted school-master of Lexington.” ——___~+<4>s— _ -__—_ eo the Tichborne claimant eutered the edurt onthe morning of bis convietivoa, he looked nervons and auxious. and seeined struck by the appear- ance of three men in plain cluthes who were sitting right in front of him. and who up to that day had not appeared im court.

It is easy to cut—indeed, too tender —and has to be dressed down after it 18 a very pleasing scene to the eye, bat jin a few years it begins to discolor, and eventually turns a dirty, sombre brown, anything but cheerful or pleasant to view, There is no variety of building stone in Paris, as this straw-colored sandstone is all the material they have. It giyes the city a sameness of color which is exceed- ingly monotonous. The grandest public edifices are constructed of this stone, as well as the commonest buildings. Even the monuments of the cemeteries are chief- ly composed of this yellow sandstone. ——_-#-_--- e Marrying a Serious Matter. It appears to be no easy matter to get married in Switzerland. A citizen of Schaffhausen, who had removed to anoth er canton, asked from his ecommane the necessary permission to marry. The preteat of the commune in reply told im that in additian to payment for the needful documents he would have to pro vide for the rights of bourgeoise if his finance were’ a Swiss 200 frances if a foreigner. The man was told, moreover, that,be would have to prove by certificate that he was provided with a wedding outfit end a fortune of 800 francs. He woald be required to pay, in addition, 23 franes to the sehiool fand, 20 franes for the millitary tax of 1873, and 26 florins 12 kreatzere for expenses incarred by his commene when he was ill in Germany.— The claims thus amounted to 232 francs 40° tation, eee = all other ex- penses of permissions, tranlations, stamps and the cost of documents..

Although nearly a decade of years has passed siuce the Reconstruetion measures were first inaugurated by Congress, the coun- try is yet in the midst of troubles consequent upon their euforcement. Louisiana and South Carolina haye served to furnish fresh food fur thought and speculation for weeks past wad now Arkansas has atepped up bold- ly tu the front, and challenged the attention of the world. Tn 1872 the contest fur Governor was be- tween Joseph Brooks, Democrat, aud Elisha Baxter. Republican. As the conduct of af- fairs was in the hands of the Radicals, Bax- ter was, of course, declared elected. But to accomplish this object the vote of four entire counties and of several townships in other counties, was thrown out. Brooks’ friends of course coutended that he was elected and have since continued to maintain that faet, and now the troubles hav culminated ia two armed bands in.

On thet5th, Brooks took the oath of Office before Chief Justice MeClure and in five minutes after had taken forcible possession uf the State House. He present- ed himself at Baxter’s office, at the head of an armed band of men and demanded pas- session. This was refased, when two of the nen seized Baxter and led him from the rvom. Since that tine Brooks has been in possession of the State House, while Baxter has established his headquarters at St. John's College. He immediately called upon the President for assistance froin United States troops, bat hi: application was refused.

When I got to Canterbury I got a ehaise for town ; but I got wet through before I got to Canterbury ; and 1 have got such a cold as I ball not be able to get rid of ina hurry.

VINZUAR BI ‘Dr. J. Walker's Califoraia Vin- Bitters are a purely V préparation, made chictly from the na- tive herbs found on the lower raingeés of tke Sierra Nevada mountains of Catifor- nia, the medicinal properties of which are extracted therefrum without the use of Alcohol. The question 48 almost daily asked. “What is the gaase of tho unparalleled suceess of VINEGAR Bit- rers?” Our answer is, that they femore the cause of disease, and the patient re- covers his health. ‘They are the. great blood purifier and a life-giving principle, @ perfect Renovator aud Invigorator of ‘the system. Never before .in the history of the warld has a medicine compounded possessing the remarkable valities of Vinkcan Lirrxes in healing thé sick of every disease man is heir to, ey are a gentic.

In their trcatnent, a purgative, exerting a pow- erful influence upon these various or- gans, is essentially necessary. ‘There is no cathartic for the purpose equal to Dr. J. WALKER's Vinecar Brrrers, as they will speedily remove fhe dark - colored Viscid nuatter with which the bowels are loaded, at the samo time stimulating the seeretions of tho liver, and generally, restoring the bealthy functions of the digestive organs.

In these, as in ul other constitational Dis- eases, WALKERS VINEGAR Birvers have shown their great curative powers in the Miost obstinate mid intractable eases. For Inflammatory and Chronje Rheumatism, Gout, Bilious, Remit- tent and Intermittent Fevors, Diseases of the Blood, Liver, Kidneys and Bladder, these Bitters have no equal. Such Diseases are caused by Vitiated Blood. ‘ Mechanical Diseases. —Persons en- pase in Paints and Minerals, such ag ‘lunrbers, Type-setters, Gold-beaters, and Miners, as they advance in. life, are subject to paralysis of the Bowels. To guard against this, take a dose of WaLken’s Vin- EGak Birrers occasionally. ‘ For Skin Diseases, Eruptions, Tet- ter, Salt-Iheum, Blotchex, Spets, Pimples, Pustules, Boils, Carbuncles, Ring-worme, Scald-head, Sure Eyes, Erysipelax, Iteb, Scurfs, Diseolorntions of the Skin, Humors and Diseases of the Skin of whatever name or nature, are literally dug up and carried out of the system in a shust time by the use of these Bitters. Pin, Tape, and other Worms, paae te the system of go many thousands, are ctually destroyed and removed. No system of medicine, no vermifuges, no an- tholminitics will free the system {ron worms like these Bitters. For Female Complaints, in young or old, married or*single, at the dawn of wo- manhood, or the turn of Jife, these Tonie Bitters display so decided an influence that -improvement is son perceptible. ‘ Cleanse the Vitiated Blood when- ever you find its impurities bursting through the akin in Pimples, Eruptions, or Sores; cleanse it when you find it obstructed and aluseien in the veins; cleanse it when it is foul; your feelings will tell you when. Keep the bfSod-pure, and the health of the system will follow. Se ees an i : . C ee Was aoiea Chariton Te EVENING CRESCENT, A Conservtive Daily Paper, RALEIGH N. C. Reliable, High-Toned. Courteous.

Baid Wealth to Pride, oue pleasant moro, While moving outward on the train, “T think if you and I were goue, The world would strive to move ia vain.” “Your words, Sir Wealth, are apt and just,” Said Pride; “if we should cease to be, The world would soon consume with rust, Since it is moved by you and me.” New Labor heard these boastings vain, And laying work and care aside, Faid he, *-We'll see who moves this train;”’ So down he sat by Wealth and Pride. But Pride put up her dainty nose, His cousin Wealth leoked black. And now a greater trouble rose— The train stood still upon the track. somewhat “Back to yotr work,’’ cried Wealth and Pride, Perceiving soon, their awkward case: Wealth twitched his mouth from side side, And Pride grew paler in the face. to Bat nct a word stout Labor said, He sat like one in calin repose, Until wealth like a suitor plead, And Pride let down her haughty nose. And then, with half-sarcasting mien, He calinly rose, aud took his place : The vouderous wheels reyolved again— The train resumed its wonted place. -—_- CHANGES or A Century.—The nineteenth eentury has witnessed many and great discov- eries. In 1790 there were only twenty-five post officers in the whole country, and up to 1837 the rates of postage were twenty-five cents for letter sent over four hundred miles. The first public application to practice the wee for gas for illuminating, was made in 1802. . Steel pens were introduced for the use in 1803, In 1807 Wooden clocks commenced to be made by machinery. This ushered in the era of cheap clocks. In 1808 Fulton took out the first patent for the invention of steamboat. In 1813 the streets of London were for the first time lighted with gas. : In 1813 there was built at Waltham, Mass.,a mill telieyed to have been the first in the world which combined all the requirements for mak- ing finished cloth from raw cotton. . The first steamboat which made regular trips across the Atlantic Ocean were the Sirus and Great Western, in 1840. About the year 1733 the first railroad of any considerable length in the United States was constructed. . aa first successful reaper was constructed in In 1836 the first patent for the invention of matches was granted. a The first successful method of vulcanized India rubber was patented in 1830. In 1840 the first experiment in photograph was made by About 1840 the @tablished. In 1845 the first telegram was sent. In 1846 Ellias Howe obtained » patent for he first sewing machine. rre. first express business eyel Goop Law Featunrrs—In California the eurrency is Federal meney, and the legal rate of interest is seven per cent., thoagh parties may contract for any rate as high as eighteen per cent., the penalty of usury being the forfeiture of the excess. Tt has a merchants’ lien law and a hoihe- stead exemption law, by which specified pr perty is exempt from attachment. In mortgages of porsonal property the pro- perty must be transferred. Contracts void if over $200, unless in writing, or part payment made, or part goods deliver- ed. Property may be attached, although the debt may not be due, if there is fraud, concealment or absconding. The wife holds in reparate right propesty owned by her beforo marriage. Tue Laven~a@ Prant.—In Pal- grave’s work on Eastern Arabia we read of a plant whose seeds produce effects simi, lar to that of laughing gas. It is a native of Arabia. The seed pods are woolly in texture, and contain two or three black seeds of the size and shape of a French bean. These seeds when pulverized and taken in small doses, operate on a person in a most peculiar manner.—He begins to laugh Joudly, boisterously ; then he sings, dances and cuts all manners of fantastic capers.

His thoughts, which had wandered much during the latter days, on the last one of all centred upon his home, and he imagined that the most eager wish of his heart in this extremity had been realized, and that his loving mvuther soothed his dying bed. A few moments before his soul took flight he raised himself slightly, and ex- tending his attennated arm, drew down close to his lips the shadow conjured from his own fond affections, while with a look of ineffable content glorifying his pallid features, his last breath was parrendeted (ae he thought) to the parent who bore him.

If the points be moistened in the mouth it will usually drive more kindly. Oil is much better, but then it is inconvenient to dip each nail separately iuto it. Another point is, that boards become loose eventually from the rusting of the nails, which, communicat- ing to the wood, causes not only an enlarge- ment of the nail hole, but the wearing away of the nail itself, rendering the fence or the building shaky and insecure. This may be prevented by heating any rough grease un- til it smokes, and then pouring it over the nails to be used. The grease will penetrate the pores of the iron, and cause the nails to last without rusting for an indefinite period. Besides this, no difficulty will then be ex- perienced in driving them into the hardest wood. The reason is, that the coating of the grease prevents contact by air, and con- sequently oxidation. Oxygen is the great destroyer of iron, and moisture is the induc- ing cause. Anything which is kept from contact with the air is preserved indefinite- ly, and if {t js kept dry, the effect is measar- ably the same. Paint upou buildings pre- vents the contact of air and moisture. If the whole fence canuot be painted, the heads at least, of the nails should be touch 2d there- in.—Pxchange. ee “Heaven knows, the Republican party of North Carolina, as in the nation is sadly in need of purification.— News.

The cost thereof has been $1,440,792. By the terms of the agreement with the parties contracting for the loan they were to pay all expenses and to received for their compensation the one half of one per cent allowed by law. Upon settlement with said parties all expenses incurred by the Govern- mest were first deducted and the balance only paid them. The refunds on account of the loan of 1858—$13,955,000—and the moneys received from the Geneva award—$15,500,00—were not made through any contracting parties, and therefore no commissions thereon were allowed.

WEALTH AND PavPERisM.—It is said thas the wealth and pauperism of England are greater than in any other nation io the world. A severe Tornado swept through the city of Nashville, last Wednesday, un- roofing and blowing down buildings, and ipflicting great losses. It is estimated that more than $100,000 worth of prop- erty was destroyed. Late frosts have done very great dam- in nearly all parts of the country.— Norfolk Virginian estimates thé a age doue to the fruit growers of that peighborhood at $500,000. F Suir Decipep.—The Supreme Court of the United States has recently decided the suit of the Floreuce Sewing Machine Com- pany against the Singer, Grove & Baker, aod Wheeler & Wilsun Sewing Machine Companies. involving over $250,000, iu fa- vor of the Florence Company. A Sincutar SigHt.—During a snow storm on Wednesday, which was accom- nied by thunder and lightning, the sun shéne brightly. ‘Chree inches of snow ou thé- grouud and the fruit trees in fall bloom is not often seen in Georgia, but thid id what Louisville, in Jefferson coun- ty, Ga., saw on the 8th inst.

License Law 18 Mussissrpp1.—The Legislature has passed, and the Governor of Mississippi, has signed a license law whieh requirers a majority of males over twenty-one and females over eighteen in the city, town, or township, to sig. a pe- tition fur a license to sell liquor before such license shall be issued. In the early history of Massachusetts when a bounty was paid for wolf sealps, an Indian used to bring scalps every year to the county treasurer and receive his bounty. At lergth the treasurer said to him: “Why don’t you get the old wolves as well as the mg ones? All your scalps are young.” “If me kill the old ones,” was the shrewd reply, ‘me have no more scalps.’ The rogue had been keeping the old ones for breeding. to bring him in an annual allow- ance. a «’*Madam,” said a polite traveler to gn old tlady, “if I see fit to help myself to this milk, ig there any impropriety in it?” “I den’t ..Janow what you mean; but if you mean to qp@sy there is anything nasty in that I'll give to understand you’ve struck the wrong ahaa.

Prosperinc.—The Vineland Weekly says the Italian colonists at that place are getting along admirably. They are build ing houses in various directions, and im~ proving Jand. They improve their land and acquaintance with fruit-growing, they will make valuable settlers, and prove a great addition to the place. —_——_~—>>o A Dream THat CaME TO Pass.— Weare not at a loss to account for dreams, as it often happens that dreams, come to pass, and more frequently they do not. A gentleman residing in this city dreamed fon the gight of the 14th inst., that his fora week, when he received a letter from a friend informing him that his father died ina distant State the same night he dreamed of his death. Now this isa remarkable case, but, neverthless, true. Who can enlighten as on dreams — Peters- burg Iedex Appeal. TERRIBLE Mintnc Expioston.—A shocking explosion occurred last Wednes- day in a eoal mine at Dankenficld, Lan cashire, England, by which fifty-three miners were killed and a number injured. Many of the bodies of the dead are so badly mutilated as to be uurccognizable. The explosion was caused by the neglect to use safety lamps. —_—___~>>- Confucius in a Police Court. A Confucian p‘ilosopher in San Francisco had as he supposed mastered the old masters, attained the suinmit of human knowledge and the key to happiness. He could repeat the Analects, and the Book of Rights. aud the Book of Changes and other works of Confucius, and was still a young mau. His heathen name was Ah How, aud he loved a Mongol maiden, Ah Yow, ard there was so mueb rhyine and feason and harmony be- tween tho-e two that they became one flesh. The celestial glories of the honeymoon had not faded oat of those two blis-ful lives be- fore How began to suspect that Yow was not so heavenly fair as his fancy painted her. His cash was going more rapidly than the demands of his frngal housekeeping justified, and he bent his almond eyes with suspicion on his beautiful new bride. One lay ke traced her to a gambling-heuse and which he had just given her forthe purchase of home comforts, and he saw those half-dollars raked in at one fell swoop by the insatiable banker. How could bear the sight no lon- ger- He ran home, turned to Confucius to this healthy maxim ; **Corporal chastiseiment is as necessary for thoughtless wiyes as for disobedient children.’’ His conrse was clear. With a section of bamboo in his right hand. and rage in his heart. and Confucius buruing went straight toa magistrate with her eom- recognized as law in the San Francisco Pol- ice court. How like many other philoso- phers, who are so full of systems that they never learn anything practical and useful for their condition on this mundane sphere. Curap ExisvEnce.— A correspondent writing from Italy, says: “At Rome J lived uearly two months at a hotel-pen- sion, in the very heart of the town, for eight frances a day, and in comparing notes with friends who were paying nearly idoubie, we found the balance of comfort was on our side, while a party of acquain- tances who were in lodgings, in an elegant suite of rooms within five minutes’ walk of the ‘Piazza de Spagna,’ told me they lived for less than sixty francs! ‘I'he best pension I have ever been in was at Naples, where, in a large house overlook- ing the orange garden of oneof the Roths- child's, we revelled‘in the products of a ‘cuisine’, which, under the rule of an En- glisb wife and Italian husband combined = = cro et the two countries, of eight francs per day.

Resolved, That we deeply sympathize with the people of the West in their want of railroad facilities, and pledge ourselves to use every available means to secure the early completion of their projected lines. Resolved, That the Republican party having despoiled the State of millions of dollars’ heretofore appropriated for railroad purposes is unworthy of confidence, and that experience justifies the conclusion that if that party should be again entrust- ed with the admistration of our internal improvements, its leaders would again prove recreant to. the sacred trust, and would divert the public fund to their private purposes. Resolwed, That a wise policy dictates the adoption of such measures as may be necessary to increase the educational ad- vantages of the children of North Caro Ima. Resolved, hat we earnestly recom- mend to the members of the Democratic- Conservative party to discourage inde- pendent candidates and all other divor- ganizers, atid that all support be prompt~ ly withdraw from every aspirant for office who shail oppose the regular nomiuees of our conventions. Resloved, That we tender to the friends of Free Government our sincere congrat- ulations at the triumph of the great princi- ples of the Constitution as illustrated by the Democratic succcsses in “the recent State and local elections. Resolved, That this Committee adjourn to meet again, in this city, on the 10th day of June next, and that all the mem- bers be requested to attend. W. R. COX, Chm’n. J. J. Litcurorp, Seet’y.

What will the world think, as under the chandelier this painful contrast comes out? Such moments of deep humiliation cause sleep~ less nights, and the next day result in bills that become as crushing ag criminal indictments to poor over-worked men.— Under the impulse of such trying scenes as these, many a matron has gone forth on Broadway with firm lips and eyes in which glowed inexorable purpose, and placed upon her arms or fingers that which might have helped her husband forward, the gems that would be mill-stones about his neck. ‘There are many phases of heroism butif you want your breath taken away, go to ‘liffany’s and see some largesonled woman, who will not even count the cost or realize the dire conse~ quences, but like some martyr of the past who will show to the world the object of his faith though the heavens fall, she marches to the counter, selects the costlix est, and says in tones of majesty, ‘Send the bill to my husband!""—N.

Our authorities here—thanks to the Board of Alderman of 1873 snd Judge Hoyit—have pretty effectually broken up the practice, so far as thia city and county are concerued. The effeets of thie policy have been mos happy. Chattanooga, once as famous as Knoxville is uow, for murderous rows, has become one of the most quite and peaceable cities in the country. This shows that to reduce that species of law- breaking which has for its principal ins gredient murderous violence, it is only necessary to create a public sentiment that will see to it that the law is enforced against those who violate the minor and preventive feature which denounces a carrying concealed weapons.” ——>-___—_—_ the battle of Manassas, in 1861 it was ob- served by the principal officers of the army of Northern Virginia that it was difficult to distinguish, in the field, the Confederate from the United States colors. I attempt- ed to get rid of this inconvenience by pro curing for each regiment its State colors. In this I was unsuccessful, except as to the Virginia regiments. Governor Letch- them, and brought them to the army him- self and delivered them to the troops with bis own hands. After failing in this at- tempt I determined to have colors for use before the enemy made for the army, and asked (in the army) for designs. Many were offered, and one of several presented by General Beauregard was selected. I square, instead of oblong, and prescribed the different sizes for infantry, artillery and cavalry. The proper number was then made under the direction of Major W. L. Cabell, the chief quarter-master of the army, and paid for with the funds in Johnston’s Book p. 602. —~—>-_- DDSPERATE AND Fatat Douet Br- TWEEN TWO GiRLs. —It is related that Madrid recently killed each other in a hand to-hand contest. The mode adopt- ed by the combatants was as romantic as it was barbarous. ‘I'he antagonists, who were both about twenty years old, and re- markably handsome, repaired one Sunday morning, accompanied by certain of their comrades, to a village some four or five miles distant, where they breakfasted suunptuously at different tables. ‘I'he re- past ended, they closed the window cur- tains, stripped themselves to the waist, and requested their friends to leave the room. ‘I‘hen, at a given sigual, they ats tacked each other with their navajas, and slashed and thrust until both fell to the floor mortally wounded. minutes had elapsed their friends re-enter- ed the room.

Y. Observer. The Arkansas Troubles. The following may be taken as the history of the present Askansas imbroglio ina nut shell. As to the present status of the case our readers have been inform- ed by telegraphic reports from Little Rock : “One Joseph Brooks, Dem.,, claims to have been elected Governor in 1872, and institated a suit in a circuit court to gain possession of the office. In meantime the Attorney General of the State brought suit against Governor Baxter, Rep., who was iu possession of the office, and the Supreme Court of the State decided that it had no jurisdiction over a contested election case of that character. The leg~ islature in 1873 opened the returns and declared Baxter to be elected. Meanwhile ina demurrer to the jurisdiction of the higher court was entered in the circuit court, and a few days ago, in the absence of the counsel of Governor Baxter, the judge overruled the dcewurrer and issued a judgment of ouster. A writ was placed in the hands of the sheriff, and Brooks with an armed band forced his way into the Governor’s office and ejected him.— The party.also broke into the State Armo-~ ry and seized about one hundred stand of arms, whereupon Gov. Baxter telegraphed to President Graut, asking that the com- mander of the United States Arsenal be directed to suetain bim, and Brooks tele- graphed the President to give him posrcs- sion of the Arsenal. ‘T'o both of these ap- peals the President replics in the negative, and refuses to have anything to do in the coutroversy as it uow stands, referring the parties to she proper action of the courts. | ——-—- mee Braxton Bragg. Gen. Braxton Bragg was_ interviewed bea St. Louis reporter the other day, and expressed himself on the subject of Jeff. Davis, secession, the Government, &e. We quote a portion of the account, as follows: Reporter—I suppcse you favored ses cession } General—I did. I thought, and think now, that it was necessary for our honor. Our institutions were being encroached up- on in @ manner that demanded action. I would have favored fighting under the old flag. We were maintaining the true Con- stitution, and not the other side—they | should have been called rebels, and not | us. | Reporter—what are your feelings now ' toward the Government ? | | Generat—I have no government. I (am disfranchised; that is, I suppoce I {am, as I have not ifquired into the mat~ ter. I take no interest in it. My props erty was confiscated and I had nothing lett me but my debts, and have had to _work for my living since the war. Reporter—would you fight for the Government if called upon ? | General—Were it a war exclusively involving the nationality of the Govern- ment, I might. I am strictly with my people of the South, and the cireumstan- ces would have to be extraordinary to ins duce me to serve under such a Govern- | ment as now predominates. ‘There would be but little inspiration to fight for a Government controlled by sach men as Ben Batler and other such men now in office. —_—_—___ ~~ Tragic Narrative of Facts. The heirs of two brothers, named Jacques and Francois Lefevre have, through their attorney, prescated a me- morial to the Indian a Senate, which reads more like a narrative of actual facts. _ Jacques Lefevre came to this country ; about the year 1830, and settled iu Law- ; rence county, Indiana, near St. Francis- j ville, on the banks of the- Wabash. For fifteen years he toiled industriously on his farm, chopping wood and selling it for fuel to passing steamboats.

Eight years later Francois Lefevre came over from France to collect what might be due the estate of hia brother, and to live on the farm ; bat a few monthe after his arrival he, too, was shot on precisely the same spot where his brother fell, and his mar- derer was never apprehended, nor any clue ob:ained concerning his identity.

Three events have occured within a week, in different parts of the country indicating, we sincerely trust, that the bitterness that has so lome existed be~ tween the people of the North and the people of the South is mpidly passing away. In Norfolk, on Saturday last, the mor- tal remains of Commodore Dornin, of the Federal navy, were borne to the grave by eight pall bearers, of whom: four bes longed to the Confederate and four be- longed to the Federal service. In Mobile, on Monday last, when a statue, commemorative of the valor and patriotism of the Southern dead, was about to be unveiled, the ex-Federal soldiers residing in the city presented a floral wreath as “an humble tribute to valor and unselfish devofion to a cause held dearer than life. ‘The guns which were fired upon the occaion were loaned by the Federal military authorities ; and the officers of the past presented a gift of flowers “asa mark of respect to the mem~ ory of the fallen dead, aud in recognition of their manly and geterous action in contributing to the decovation of graves in the National Cemetery at Mobile, Ala., on the 30 of Jmmze, 1873.” In Washington City ond on the same day, while our brethren of the South were holding memorial services over their dead, the Federal Congress was holding memor- ial seryicea over him who only afew short wecks ago was one of its most prominent members, over CUARLES SuM- NER, who had been at once the idol of the North and the enemy of the South. Among those wha apsta wards of eulogy aud kindly fecling and honest re- gret for the death of the Massachusetts Senator, and to whom was assigned the post of honor on the occasion, was the Honorable L. Q. C. Lamar, a Georgian by birth, a Culonel in the Confederate Army ‘and a Representative from the Northern District of Mississppi before the war as well as now, and a gentleman of whom the whole Southern laud may well b> proud. And thus has presented to the world the greatful, doubly grateful spec tacles of Federal soldiers doing honor to Federal dead, and Confederate soldiers and Confederate statesmen doing honor to Federal dead. - May the time speedily come when the people of all sections of the country shall once more be linked together in the bonds of true fraternal feeling, each mindful of the feeling and respecting the rights of the other. ——————-e-_____ Royal Marriage in Egypt. _——— The rete givon by the Viceroy of Egypt on the occasiou of the marriage of his daughter, the Priucess Zeiueb Hano~ um, with Ibrahim Pasha, seem by account given of them in the Turquie, to have been of a most brilliant description, The fetes commenced on Sunday, the 21st ult., when the Princess was conducted from the palace of the Viceroy to that of her grandmother, his Highness’s mother. Her departare was announced by salvoes of artillery, and for three days following the feativities were carried on. ‘The invita~ tions to the fetes were in accordance with the rank of each guest. The ulemas, or members of the priest-hood, received a special mark of honor by being invited on the first day. The next day was devoted to the en» tertainment of the consuls-generals and of the higher functionaries of the State, civil and military. ‘Thirdly and lastly came the religious heade of the Christian com- munitics and the vice-counsels, the Gov- ernors of Cairo and Alexandria, and the principal bankers and merchants of those cities. Afier the banquet was a maguniti- cent display of fireworks, and on the same evening a ceremony ef a different charac- ter took place in the apartments of the haremilk, where a uumber of European ladies and other notables were received by the Viceroy. ‘I'he Priucees, however re- mained in a private room with the Prin- cess-mother and aunt of the Khedive uns til after dinner, when she received her lady guests in another apartment, where were displayed the costly marriage pres- evts eent by the Saltan. The room was profusely and richly decorated, a. carpet of the rarest furs covered the floor, and the walls and ceiling were hung with fas brics of inestimable valuc. Elevated ia the middle of the room were tbree thrones covered with fine silk tissue with gold embroidery. On one of these the Princess, resplendent ei re took a seat, her mother and grand aunt seating themselves the one on the right hand, the other on. the left. To them now advanced their Highnesses the maternal grandmother of the Princess, the mother of Ibrahim Pa-~ sha, and the wives of the Khedive; as they entered the room they opened bags, from which, in conformity with an ancient ed to sell the land since the murder ef ; custom, they took handfuls of gold, which they flung ou the heads of the festive as- On the following day the bride was conducted with great pomp to the of her distinguished husband. In the van of the marriage procession rode the Per~ fect of Police onan Arab e} eaparisoned, accompanied by a brilliant suite of officers. Following these marched a detachment of cavalry and foot soldiers. Then came the uledias and imams chant- ing invocations for the happiness of the princely couple.. The equipages of the ladies belonging to the household of the Khedive and of Prince Ibrahim brought up the rear, followed and. flanked by a body of canvaeses. The carriage which contained the Princess Zeineb, was drawn by six’horses, The sreets were lined with troops, the forts thundered oyt the salutes, and vast multitudes thronged together to witness the procession, which was in every way a grand saccess, A Brave Iceland Girl: Feminine Bare-Back Riding—The Part. ing Kiss in the River. Mr. S. E. Waller started for a trip in Iceland in June, 1872. He gives an aceount of ‘Six Weeks in the Saddle,’ in a little volume from which we get au idea of the customs of tif people there. The Icelanders are almost inconveniently hos- pitable. It is difficult to get a farmer, who keeps you for a day or two, to ac~ cept pay. Our author seems to have done his best to requite hia hosts by mak- ing himself amusing. Here we have an instance of native kiidness and femiuine courage. In the morning I made a small study, and after a very tolerable meal and oy good wishes, we rode off. All went well until we came to the river Markafijot, which happened to be very much flooded. Not liking to attempt to swim under the cireumstances, we rode on down the bank forsome miles, and fortunately found a house. Knocking at the door, we asked: ‘Is the river very deep?” ‘Very,’ said a voice from the inside. “I3 there a man who will show us a ford 1” we asked again. “No,” was the reply, ‘both John and Oliver are up in the mountains, but one of the girls will do quite as well. Here, Thora, go aud show the Englishman the Way. Immediately an exceedingly handsome young woman ran out, and nodding kind- ly to me, went around to the back of the Livvwor, wauglea pully, pul a beidle and not taking the trouble to fetch a sad- dle, vaulted ou his bare back, and sitting astride, drove her heels into his sides and galloped off down the river bauk as hard as she could go, shouting for us to fol- low. We became naturally rather excited at such display of dash on the part ef such a pretty girl, and started off immediately in chase. But though we did our utmost to catch her, she increased her distance hand over hand. ‘There was no doubt a- bout it ; she had as much courage as ever we could boast of, and, in point of horse- mausbip, was a hundred yards ahead of either of us. For about half a mile we rattled along when suddenly she pulled up short ona sand bank. “You can cross here,” she said, “but you must be careful. Make straight for that rock over there, and when you have reached it, you will be able to see the! cairn of stones we built to show the land- | ing place.” on tbhy richly “All right,” I said. ‘Good bye.” She looked puzzled for a moment, and then said: “I'll come through with you ; it will be eafer.”’ “Good gracious! Bajarni, don’t let! her come.” I said—‘‘she is sure to be drowned, and I can’t get ber out with all these wet clothes on; tell ber to go back.”’ But before I was half through the sen- tence, she had urged her horse into the water, aud in a moment was twenty yards into the river. Of course I followed quick ‘ag possible, and, after a great deal of splashing, reached the middle of the flood. ‘Now,’’ she said, bringiog her horse up abreast with mine, and pointing with her whip, “there’s the mark.” ‘I'he, water was running level with the horses’ : withers, and it waa only by lifting their heads very high they could keep their noses clear. “Good bye,’’ she said, “God bless you,” and before I was quite aware of it she kissed me on the cheek I was about to return the compliment, | but she was gone, and a few minutes after we saw her, a mere speck in the distance, galloping over the plain. _ Kissing in Iceland is a custom similar to shaking hands here. I had thought of it in ordinary situations, but a kiss in the midst of boundless waters was, to say the jeast of it, strange. It was certainly the wettest one I ever bad inmy | life. | ~~. REREGISTRATIONIN NORTH CAROLINA. —Much doubt seemstoexist as to whether in the coming State elections the people shall be required to reregister. A gentle- | man of Geldsboro writes to the Private Secretary of the Governor for information » on the subject. He says that some advise to use the same old register book and others think the whole registration should be commenced afresh. In conversation with Hon. W. N. H. Smith, he showed us a late act of the Legislature providing for the elections this year to be held iu every particular as in 1872, and adopting the Same enactment that applied to that. This entactment clearly provides that the registration list shall be revised so as to give new electors the opportunity to be ‘ registered without requiring electors to be registered auew.— Raleigh Crescent. | spot, they found he had been shot. _ terious. , **Mollie Maguires.”’ ‘ble “long strike’ of 1870-’71 he tried to Terroism and Wholesale Assassination in Pennsyluania—The Carbonari of the Coal Regions. COLD-BLOODED MURDERS. ee A corréspondent of a western journal writing from Scranton, Pa., gives a start- i pen picture of the state of affairs in the coal regious-of that State. He says that probably no State in the country is s0 over- run with tobbers apd deéperadoes as Penn- sylvania, . Almost every largely populated eity or town has within its preciucts a regu- larly otganized band of outlaws, whe hold the citizens iu terror by their frequevt apd terrible ations on persons and prope: ty. The acts of these semi-educated van outstrip; in mauy instauces, those that are attributed to the border 1affians or the des- peradoes of the Far West. The cause of all this terroism, in what is generally supposed to be a civilized State, is attributed to the manner in which the criminal cases are managed. The legislators who make the laws, and the lawyers whu handle thei are, as a rule, shysters; and, if a criminal has mouey,*a job is very easily arranged by which he is allowed to go scot-free. While scoundrels and burglars walk the streets of the principal cities unmolested honest men ‘are dying inthe State penitentiaries. Unless some radical change is effected svon, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania will have such a reputation for outlawry that strangers will avoid it with shudders. : Scranton is situated at the upper end of the renowned Wyoming coal region. Near here, and in the same corporation, is Hyde Park, a place of some ten thousand population.— this place has, of recent years, been THE SCENE OF MANY OUTRAGES, pervert by the ‘Mollie Maguires,”’ a orde of desperadoes who infest the coal country. It is said the ‘‘Mollies” originated from a secret organization which existed for many yearsin Ireland. The band, which is between fifteen hundred and two thousand strong, is led by Tim O'Donnelly whose headqnarters are in a lonesome, unromantic spot ou Keyster’s Mountain. In Hyde Park aud this city, po less than twelve persous have disappeared mysterously, aud are said to have been ‘put away” by the ‘Mollies,” this year. It is said that they control the administration of Scranton, and it is a mat- ter of common belief that two of the leading city officials are members of the band. Their plan of operations is said to beas fol- lows: When the ‘*Mollies’’ have determin- ed upon the death of any one who has ineur- red their vengence, lots are drawn, and the one to whose duty it falls to dispatch the victim does his bloody work silently but surely. A nan named Jones, a ‘‘Mollie,”” warned a friand abeut a maak cinan thot ha ‘marked man.”’ A few days afterwards Jones himself was found dead upon the highway. Upon examination it was found that he had been stabbed to the heart. Near where he laid was the emblem of the ‘*Mol- lies,"" A COFFIN, SKULL AND CROSS-BONES, to which was attached‘on a card the words: “So dies the traitor.’”” When the band wish- es apy one to leave the neighborhood, a no- tice bearing some horrible symbol of death is placed on the door of his residence, with the written injunction that he must leave in twenty-four hours, It is needless to state that the warning is generally heeded. The ‘Mollie Maguires” have their way in every- thing: and those that incur their displeas- ure, in aay part of the eval region, are made to quit the country or forfeit their lives. In the Shuylkill region, especially about Mahoney City, Girardville. Locust Gap, Centralia, Mt. Carmel and Shamokin. the ‘*Mollies’? pursue their depredations without check—the people living in constant fear of their lives. Hardly a day passes but that a ‘‘mysteruus death” oceurs. A few days since a miner, Micheal Dougherty, was passing along the main street of Centralia, when, all at once, he was seen to totter and fall. — Persons ran to him, and, upon reaching the As no shot was heard at the time of the occur- rence. the matter was regarded as very mys- The man was carried to his home, and on the door of his I ouse was the inserip- tion. wae o “HE BETRAYED THE BAND.” This was followed by skulls, cross-bones. aud other hideous emblems. By this it was at once known who comuitted the murder. No attempt is ever made by the authorities to unrayel these crimes, as everybody fears the vengence of the terrible urganization.— It is generally conceded that there is no law in Schuylkill county. The ‘**Mollies’ number about 2000 in the Schuylkill region. The leaders are many, but the most prominent one is said to be a man by the naine of Barny Dolan, who lives near Lueust Gap. Citizens, busiréss men, coal operators aud miners, have ei‘her been driven from the regions or bruta!ly assassi- pated on the highways. These brigauds are bound by the most terrible oath ; and, if one is selected to coin- mit marder, and thea fails he is compelled to die by his own hand, in presence of the ‘entire organization.

It is during a miners’ strike that the “Mol lies” raise the mischief generally. Murders are perpetrated, ‘‘mine-breakers”’ and other property burned. During the ‘‘long strike,” no less than one hundred persons fell vic- ‘ tims to the riots and disorder. while, at the time of the ‘‘stand-out” last winter, at least twenty-five atrocious murders were perpe- trated. : ‘Mollie Magurism” is increasing in allthe ‘ enal districts, and eventuaHy notbing can be done by the citizens. unless sanetioned by the organization, Sacha state of affairs would almost seem impossible in the State of Pennsylvania, bat matters are at present even worse than nas been depicted here.

His message, which was sent to the Senate to- day, is us follows : Executive Mansion, April 22. To the Senate of the United States : Herewith I return the Senate bill, 617, en- titled “An act to fix the amount of United States notes,’ and, the circulation of national banks, and for other purposes,” without my approval. In doing so I must express my re- | gret at not being able to give my assent toa ‘measure which has received the sanction ofa majority of the legislators chosen, by the people to make laws for their guidance. * * Theory, in my belief, is adeparture from the true principles of finance, national interest, na- national obligations to creditors, Congressional promises, party pledges on the part of both political parties, and of the personal views and promises by me in every annual message sent to Congress, and in each inaugural address. * * * A declaration contained in the act of June 30th, 1864, created an obligation that the total amount of United States notes, issued or to be issued, should never exceed four hundred millions of dollars. The amount in actual cir- culation was actually reduced to three hundred and fifty-six millions of dollars, at which point Congress passed the act of February 4th, 1868, suspending the further reduction of the curren- cy. The forty-four millions have ever been re- garded as a reserve, to be used only in case of emergency, such as has occurred on several oc- casions, and must occur whenever receipts suddenly fall below expenditures ; and such a reserve is necessary, because the fractional cur- rency, amounting to fifty nrillions, is redeema- ble in legal-tenders. It may be said that such a return of fractional currency for redemption is impossible, but steps may be taken for a re- turn to a specie basis, and it will be found that silver will take the place of fractional currency as rapidly as it can be supplied when the prem- ium in gold reaches a_ sufficiently low point. With the amount of United States notes to be issued, permanently fixed within proper limits, and the treasury so stremghtened as to be able toredeem them incoinon ‘demand, itwillthen be safe to inaugurate a system of free banking, with such provisions as to make compulsory redemption of the circulating notes the banks in coin or in United States notes themselves redeemable and made equivolent to coin, A measure preparatory to free banking or for placing the Goverment ina condition to redeem its notes in coin at the earliest practica- At a meeting in Qarlotte, on Thurs- day, of the Conseryalyes and Demoerats | of that ‘'ownship, Hp .

The effeet of the FAIN-KILLER upon the patiert when taken internally, in case Cold, Cough, Ebwel Complaint, Cholera, Dy- sentery, and otter afflictions of the system, has been truly wondrful, and has won for it a name among medical prepartions that can never be forgotten. Its success in removing pain, as an external remed’, in cases of Burns, Bruises, Sores, Sprains, ¢uts, Stings of Insects, and other causes of sufferbg, has secured for it such a host of testimony, as an infallible remedy, that it will be handal down to posterity as one of the greatest matical discoveries of the nine- teenth century, TOE PAIN-KILLER derives much of its popularity from the sim- plicity attending its use, which gives its ita peculiar value ina family. The various dis- eases which may be reached by it, and in their incipient stages eradicated, are among those which are pecul.arly fatal if suffered to run; but the curative magic of this preparation at once disarms them of their terrors, In all re- spects it fulfills the conditions of a popelar medicine.

Our bodies are not as vigorous ner our minds as clearas they might be. This remark is true of at least two-thirds of civilized society, and of these two-thirds probably- one-half is labor- ing under bodily infirmities of a character like- ly to shorten the lives of the sufferers, This is amelancholy exhibit and furnishes abundant food for reflection. Can the evil be mitigated ? Itcan. Lack for vitality is the primary cause which we are subjected, and therefore a vitaliz- ing medicinal agent is the remedy required. Is there such a medicine? There is. Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters will rouse and energiz the mind and blood when the life power of the system isin a comparatively dormant s ate The languide, feeble, desponding invalid is not aware of the latent energies that underlies his debility. Hethinks there is no element oj vigor left in his frame, when the fact is that his physicial capabilities are merely asleep and only require waking up. Let him’ stimulate and tone his animal machinery and endow it with new motive power, through the agency of this incomparable invigorant, and he will scon feel like a new man, or rather like a man who has received a new lease of life, and the requis- ite health to enjoy it. Many busines men suffer from chronic langnor and depression caused by too close application to business. Hard students are often oppressedl with melancholy froma like cause Mechanics and working men are affected in the same wav as a result of overla- bor. To all who are in this condition, from whatever cause, Hostetters’s Stomach Bitters will prove a signal blessing. It is a perfect panacea for physical debility and mental gloom It strengthens the body, clears the mind and calms the nervous system; while as a remedy for indigestion, biliousness, ‘constipation, rheu- matism, and intermittent and remittent fevers, it takes precedence of all other medicines.

From the very mo~ ment this Old Board was brought forward with Dr. Keen at the head of it—thus placing him on two tickets for Mayor, a wet and a dry one—it was evideut that there was no chance for the writer, to say | nothing of the many illegal and non-resi- | dentnon-tax-pay ing voters believed to | have been polled on Monday. The object of this article is not to cast | undue reflections upon the Old Board, for | it was composed of good men, and we take it for granted that all composing it were actuated by pure and disinterested mo- tives, but the truth with respect to it and previous Boards should be known. It was said that the last year’s Board saved to the town a large ‘‘controverted claim” that, of course, would have been lost ; that it got the debt in ship shape, bought a gravel pit, and done many other won- derful things. And yet these sayings were mere assertions, exparte utterances, unsupported by figures aud fit only for electioueering purposes. ‘Ihe tact is the McCabbins’ Board of 1871-72 was the first Board since the ‘war to inaugurate measures of reform. It | was the first Board to ascertain the in- debtedness of the town and to arrange it so as to be understood. It paid upwards | of Two ‘Lhonsand ‘Dollars of said debt without selling any town property. ‘Lhe su-called coutruverted claim that is alleg~ ed to have been saved by the last Board was in reality saved by \he McCabbin’s | Board, and would have been defiuitely settled by it or the succeeding Board, had it been possible without difficulty to do so while a main party was living. If the defendant was still living the controvert~ ed claim would still be controverted—uan- actiled. - : “fhe MeCubbisn’ Board did about as much work on the streets as the last a..d did it better, it secured the erection of a wall‘atound the Lutheran Grave Yard, paid less money for police and had about as good order, had the bridges rebuilt and repaired over the Rail Roads, drove away uo citizens and dug no useless wells. As to the purchase of a gravel pit, it is safe to say that if anything like the sum was given for it reported, the interest on the money one year would buy more gravel than has been puton the strects since the war. Gravel can be bought for Sand 10 cts a load. It is better to buy at those prices, or even give more, than to have a sum however small invested in pine fields. -The debt of the town, as we have shown in another article, ought to tbe quite settled up. The other wonder- ful things alleged to have been done were not beyond the capacity of a similar num- ber pf the; bumblest of our citizens. .So think and go say those best acquainted with the town affairs. Then, what claims had it upon our people above other equal ly good citizens ! \ Gen. Wrayk P, Blair has joined a Pres- bytérlan church in St. Louis. in debt, and if so, how much?

She was singing at the piano ‘Passing under the Rod.” Not long after this her fair brow was wild. 1No More “Cuicken Pre.”—The House, nog Friday, very summarily struck from the géveral appropriation bill a section giving 39£9,000 to publishing the laws of the United tes to two papers in each State —These papers, of course, are always of the trooly loyal stripe, aud so the carpet. baggers and seallawag memberg from the south raised a , dened how), declaring that without this and atbthe other ‘chicken pie” their organs 2@euld get they coulden’t live at all.

An Istanp oF GoLp.—Some two mouths sioce two California gentleman who had been on a fishing expedition returned to San Francisco, bringing a few pieces of gold and silver ore and some specimen of galena. While on their voyage they came upon an island in the Japanese group and went ashore. Ex~ perience miners, they recognized signe of gold and prospected as much, using a hatchet, as they could without exciting the attention of the rest of the crew. They found rich gold and silver bearing ledges. ‘Yelling their story in San Francisco, a company was soon formed for the purpose of landing an expedition ou this island of gold. The schooner Nautilus was pur- chased and properly fitted, the gentleman gold discoverers placed in command, each agreeing to go without compensation other than a certain number of hares! ‘in the cemany’s stock. ‘The crew is| |made up of ten seamen, including two, minins experts. ~~ Crime Dressedin Dainty Words. It is too common now-a-days to dress up every crime, from murder to petty | theft, in soft words. A desperate killing, | resulting in the death of two or three is! called ‘a fatal affray,”’ oran “unfortunate | occurrence.” Robbery is called “defalca» tion.” Ifa bank officer steals money, an official pocket the public funds, or any one betray trust by appropriating otber people’s woney, the theft is announced as an “irregularity.”’ Bat the world is ins debted to Colonel Needham, the national bank examiner for the State of Massa- chusetts, for the latest illustration of this tashion of dressing crime in dainty words. He tells the stockholders of the Brighton national bank that the losses which they sustained by “temporary misapplication,” will be made good. ‘lemporary misap- plication” is a new name for theft. ‘This sort of soft soldering of villainy is an incentive to crime. ‘The influence of words is incalculable. Men will do that, when it is called by a gentle name, trom which they would often shrink if it were only correctly and strongly characterized. Let “temporary misapplication” be called stealing and let it be punished as stealing and it will not occur 8o often. It is bigh time to speak of foul doings in high or low places as they deserve. Things should be called by their right names. Give the defaulter his cognomen of thief. When a man shoots down his neighbor write murderer across his brow. Let this rule be adopted, and in no rank or degree of life in our country will sin so plate it- to the shafts and bolts of public opinion. — Memphis Appeal. ee THE PeopLeE oF THE SourH.—It secms to us pre-eminently desirable that the people of the two sections of our com- mon country that we opposed to each other in the late war should seek “the things that make for peace” and_ perfect harmony. Slavery, the cause of strife, being destroyed, and no one seeking or desiring its rehabilitation, the interests of the two sections, industrial, commercial, po'itical and religious, are indentical, and nothing remains to separate us froin each other but prejudices and habits which a common patriotism and a common Chriati- anity should make it easy to oyercome.— Since the close of the war it has been our earnest desire and purpose to do allin our power to promote a good understanding between the two sections, to heal all dif- ferences, remove all prejudices and anis musities, and secure perfect harmony of feeling and action upon all questions of common concern. dur convictions upon the quetions at issue in the war remains unchanged, and it must still be asserted when necessity requirers, though always with perfect charity toward the people of the South ; but we would, as far as possi- ble,'forget those issues, and help the Sonth to forget them, and unite heartily with her in efforts tv promote her pecuniary, social, government and religious growth aud prosperity.— Christian Union. > Gen.

Why pay him tho real value of a barrel. of flour and fonr or five dollars additional for buying it? Why pay him the mana- factured price of his cotton bagging and six to eight cents per yard additional for making the purchase? Upon what grounds of agricultural economy does he buy ? Why does he give twenty to thirty dollars per head profit upon every plough- animal which he buys ? Why does he give two-and-a-half per cent. the proceeds of the sale of his cotton to some man for sell- ing it? Can he notsell his cotton to the manufacturer, just as the middle-man, and thus save two-and-a-half per cent. of the gross amount of the proceeds ef the sale? Every dollar saved is that mach made. Can he not purchase from the manufacturer or importer just as well as the commission merchant, and thus save theexpense which attaches to him through the increased profits which arise in the hands of the middle~men? And nearly everything which the agriculturist con- sumes, that he does not produce, passes through the hands of several middle-men, each of whom, before disposing of the ar- ticle, puts, on his profits. ‘hese profits are made to cover the cost of his bread and butter and fine linen, to say nothing of what is made by the various tricks aud subterfuges known to the trade. To illustrate so plainly, that “he who rans may read,” let us suppose a case: We will tak2 three commission merchants and located one in New York, one in Charleston, and one in any interior town of South Carolina. We will number them 1, 2, 3, the order in which they are nam- ed. Our New York, man, number I, buys his stock of merchandise direct from the manufactuer. We will specify some par- ticalar article ; say. Passaic prints. He pays the manufacture in New Jersey, five or six cents per yard, say six certs. Number 1 adds say one-and-a-half cents to the original cost of the article, and dis~ poe of itto Number 2 at seven-and-a-~ alf cents per yard. Number 2. must make his bread and butter and fine linen out of it also, so he adds onesand-ashalf cents to what he paid for it, and disposes of it to number 3 at nine cents per yard. Number 3 must make his living out of it, support his family, and educate his child- ren, 80 he makes a final disposition of it at ten-andsa-half cents per yard. Now, if this illustiation represents a fair per- centage of the increascd profits, and | presume it does not miss tie mark far, the consumer pays for an article, which should only cost him six cents, tea-and-a half cents, or nearly double its manufac- tured price. It would seem at first glance, that one-and a-half cents, is a very small profit io make on a yard of c.lco. Ifthe commission merchants were to sell only a few yards, the amount realized would in- deed, be small. But in the time each of the trio will, probably, sell millions of yards. I do not wish to be understood as en deavoring to create prejudice against the middle-men. ‘Their existence does not depend upon any fault of theirs. They exist by the pas-ive consent of the agricu - turists themselves, and just so long as the agriculturists continue to create the neceat- ty for theirexistence, just so long willthey continue to exist. It is not contemplated, neither ia it practical or expedient to dis- pense with them entirely. ‘I'bat the num- ber should be greatly diminished, is a fact patent to any uobservant mind.

Walker's California Vin egar Bitters are a purely Vegetable preparation, made chiefly from the na- tive herbs found on the lower ranges of the Sicrra Nevada mountains of Califor- nia, the medicinal properties of which are extracted therefrom without the use of Alcohol. ‘The question is almost daily asked. “What is the cause of the unparalleled success of VINEGAR Brt- Treks?” Our answer is, that they remove the cause of discasc, and the paticut re- corers his health. ‘They are the great . blood purifier and a life-giving principle, ® perfect Renovator and Invigorator af the system.

In their treatment, a purgative, exerting a pow- erful influence upon these various or- gans, is essentially necessary. ‘here is no cathartic for the purpose equal to Dr. J.

How the door that leads to heaven Was most ainply broad and wide, And how each could turn the handle And go easily inside ; That the very gentlest natures To the world inay yet be stroug. And bow truth is always wisdom, And all wickedness’ is wrong. He explained how true religion Was day-working. nothing more: ‘Phas thie world was not av veean, ‘JNor we pebbles ou the shore ; Bat that thinkiug men and women * “Sthou'd find better things to do Than in twisting God's commandments Or quite breaking thein in too, “As for acting like our peighbors, Why, we none of us are fools! 5 x cannot be made a Christian Ft FR , nder everybody's rules, If your neight or’s not as good as He you would have bim be, B you go ahead and beat him!” Said this candid Parson Lee. Next, he told then how complaining Was a noxivus choking weed ; That the flowers scarcely blossomed Ere they chauged to homely seed ; How that seed again sprung upward ¥), Aud bore many flow’rets more; Kaa'that life was ‘ever fading Aad renewing, o’er and o’er. So, this man, by honest talking, Worked bis wonders in the town ; But he never cared for praises, And he laughed at high renown, Yet the people loved him dearly, And they bleesed god for the sight, Till at last the master left them, On a cold, dark wiuter’s night. , they knew not whither; * Have you eyer met him, pray? qXou would kpow him by his siniling, ' And the sunshine on his way.

Senate on Thursday last, Mr. MER- RIMON obtained the floor and spoke u:.til ad- journment. We make the following summary of his remarks : “He said that the Kellogg government was a et despotism, set up in defiance of the Constitution and the laws of the State of Louie- iana. He then revitwed at length the relations of the State to the Federal Government, and the ive powers and obligations of each. He in addition to the obligations of the General Government to Louisiana as one of the States of the Union, it was bound by solemn treaty stipulations with France to se- ater pesthants of Louisiana in their rights i He then maintained that Louis- iaga and other States of the South had never been out of the Union ; that their ordinances of secession were null and void and of no effect, as they had no authority under the Constitution to pass such ordinances. Therefore he con- gress as unconstitutional, and null and void at the (ime of their passage. They were revolutionary acts, but they were binding now, because the ple of the South had accepted them, the Executive had recog- nized them, and Congress had, by subsequent acts, recognized and accepted them. They were in the nature of revolutionary acts, but having been accepted on all sides they became valid and of effect. Louisiana had, under these reconstruction acts, formed a new con- stitution, republican in form, and accepted as such by Congress. Under this constitution an election was held for Stave officers in 1872. Mr. McEnery was a candidate for Governor on one side and Mr. Kellogg a candidates on the other. He then stated the mamer in which the re- turns were counted by the board which declar- ed McEnery elected. Those returns were can- vassed according to the constitution and laws of Louisiana, and the result was that McEnery was declared elected. No one could pretend that Kellogg was declared elected in any manner provided for by the constitution and the laws of the State. Therefore he was and could be nothibg more or'less than a usurper. It was claimed that at any rate Kellogg was de facto Governor. He denied this in toto. Kellogg was no more de facto Governor of Louisiana than he Mr. M.) would be de facto Governor of the istrict of Columbia if he should go before an officer and take the oath prescribed by law for the Governer of the District, and then, with a thousand roughs at his back, assume to exercise the duties of the Governor. In support of his position Mr. M. quoted from the constitution and by-laws of Louisiana. The bill coming up again on Friday, Mr. MERRIMON renewed his remarks. He contin- ued his review of the canvassing of the elec- tion returns, and said the Lynch board was entirely illegal and void. He denied there was any evidence to prove that any of the colored people of Louisiana had been denied the privi- lege of voting. The Republican party, he said, had accomplished its mission ; it was founded on opposition to negro slavery, which had been abolished by the sword.” Its acts now were not such as to commend it to the Ameri- can pcople. He did not say what party would succeed it, but, iis day was gone. He trusted in God that it would be swept away at the next fall elections. TS To THE OFFICERS AND FRIENDS OF THE BrpteE Causrk iN Nortu Caroiina.—We from Rev. C. H. Wiley, successor to Kev. P, A. Strobel, District Superintendent for the American Bible Society. The vacancy caused by the resignation of the Rey. P. A.-Strobel, District Superintendent for the American Bible Society, has been filled by my transfer from the field of Middle and East Tennessee, to which I was unexpectedly called five yearsago. The many and strong ties form ed in my new home, where I had a rich exper+ ience of the Devine goodness,.and my devotion to the important work opened to me there did not cause me to forget my native State, where I had spent many years in labors of love for the public welifare; and nowI return to re- new attachments which neither time nor distance can weaken, and to devote myself to that cause which lies at the foundation of all individual and national prosperity, and in which I can co-operate with all races and all classes, and with every branch of the Chureh of Jesus Christ. God will bless and honor those, and only those, who honor His Word. And it is through the Ministry of this word alone that society is to be improved, good government seca, and the wilderness and solitary place made glad. That department of this Ministry over which Tam now placed in common gronnd to all de- nominations and I, therefore, contidently appeal to all who love the Lord Jesus Christ and the supremacy of His revealed Truth, and to every one who would panes the public walfare to unite heartily with mein efforts to deepen and widen the interest in that administrative system which is the chief instrumentality of the Church for the publication and dissemination of the written Word. : The American Bible Society, fostered and watched over as-its Agent by the Church in America, has hitherto proved faithful to its great Mission, has been most abundant in use- ful labors, and is now engaged in operations of immense extent and importance; and I cannot but hope that its representative in this good old State will continue to meet with a cordial reception from every class, and that the Auxi- liary Bocictice which cover the whole territory we be actively supported by the communities n which they are located. ‘ It is my desire, the Lord willing, to visi every part of the State ; but in the mean time, the eyes of the Superintendent should rest con- tinuonsly on the whole field in one view, and therefore he should be able to look and operate through others, and to regard all local officers and agents of the Bible System as his assistants, and himselfas one of a united band. The responsibilities and trials of my position are very great and I deeply feel the need of ry m- i y and aid on the part of every one who oves the Bible Cause ; and I would respectfully call upon the officers of Auxiliary Societies, and upon all others who are able to offer sug- gestion or to furnish information important to my mission, to put themeelves in communication with me and to co-operate in unceasing efforts to supply our people with the Word, of God, and to extend liberal aid to the American Bible Society in its vast and glorious work at home and abroad, For the present my address is Greenboro, N. C., and due notice will be given of m change. iW He WILEY, District Supt, for American Bible Society in N. C. April 24,1874, -_— ~~ It is estimated that it will cost sixty millions of franes and three years’ labor to fortify Paris against foreigh enemies. The line of defense is to be pushed as far as Versailles and Montmorency, so that an invading army would henceforth have to form a belt of 120 instead of 60 miles. The advanced forts will be four to six miles distant, and the intervening spaces, will be covered by the crossfire of powerful artillery.

One case-of iipe horror he discovered there; that of a white woman, the widow of a Confederate soldier, em< pes as a eook in-a neg lily, and er daughter, a child of téh’yeats, acting as scullion. Mr. Mills obtained posses- sion of the latter, aad took it to Oxford, but such was its ragged condition, that until he was aided by a benevolent Jew with a supply of clothing, she was unfit to be placed on the eftrs.” ,, ....... It can’t be possible that the “Future London,” is chargable with such gross negligence—that the leading citizena fo the place are so indifferent to the claims of the poor whites as to permit sanch res volting associations as the Recorder mens tions above. There must be some mis- take about it. Ignorance of the fact is not a sufficient excuse, if these things are true. ——_ emo Royal Oddities. The King of Bavaria is eccentric. His engagement to marry @ princess is said to have been suddenly broken off because she persisted in refusing to éxpress ad- miration for Wagner's music. Among his freaks was construction of a lake on the top of his palace, in which he sailed about in a beat for recreation. A few years since he took a notion that he want+ ed to see a representation of an eruption of Mount Vesuvins, and immediately ordered a court pyrotechnist to proceed, regardlese of cost, to produce such a spec- tacle on the mourtain near his secluded palace. He complied with the order, but the representation waa not satisfactory. The court pyrotechnist at Vienna was then sent for, and be made extensive pre- parations and give entire satisfaction, and hud an order for its repetition, the King expec'ing and thinking that he was and would be the only spectator. He, how- ever, heard that the villagers had assem- bled at the foot of the meuutain and had witnessed the spectacle also. Ou hear- ing this he countermauded the order for its repetition, sent the pyrotechnist home, and, ordering the burgomaster of the vil~ lage before him, severely rated him toi allowing the people toapproach the moun lalo, ————_ +a From the Daily News. “A Daughter of Bohemia.” Thia is the title of one of the most in- tensely interesting society novels I have ever read. Itis a book of very decided power, and shows that the author is stead- ily advancing in her ca:cer as a writer of fiction. ‘There are passages ot exceeding beauty, and the whole production is the workmanship of an artist of great talents and of the finest taste. It is the best novel I haye ever read from a Southern pen, and North Carolina may weil be proud of her distinguished and very highly gifted daughter. The characters are few but admirably individualized ; the story is really of absorbing interest; the style is clear, animated, finished, clegant ; the tone pure and enobling ; the descriptions minute, olaborate and often beautiful, and the conversations remarkably fresh, enter- taining and brilliant. It is well done throughout, and should take rank with the best love-stories of the times. Mies Fisher has no cretcliets to ventilate, no theories to advance, no mysterious problema to unfold. She sits down to tell to the en- trauced reader u story of Southern life, and with the skill of a practiced and charming narrator she unravels the threads of her plot with a grace, a facility and a power worthy of all admiration. Whilst the tone of all her works is noble and i pleasing, aud over them is turown a bright and genial glow of goodness and hamaui- | ty, in “A Daughter of Bohemia” there is | added a grandeur of dramatic interest that renders it specially enthrilling and praise- worthy. In the beginning of the story we have premonitions of the storm that, is to burst at last in fury and madness, and to bring desolation and despair to more than one heart, and death to our un- happy victim. he appreciative reader will sincerely thank the author for the creation of Nora Desmond, whese beauty is not more lustrous and unrivaled than her character, as revealed at last, is love~ ly and heroic. Indeed tke conception and management of this character appears to me to be of a high order of art. ‘There aie scenes of pathos too that will quicken the heart-throbs and fill tbe eyes with tears. 1n all the book there is not a dull line or page. But I only meant to express my high gratification at the perusal of this last production of Miss Fisher, (“Christian Reid” as she chooses to call herself,) with - out attempting either analysis or formal criticism. T. B. Krnaexsory. Raleigh, April 21st, ,74. Does Mr.any one imagine that every body must sneeze when he takes snuff! It can’t be that there is so little respect for the opinions uf others. Miss Fisher is indeed a charming writer—story teiler | she has well won an enviable reputation ; but “A Daughter of Bohemia” will add peculiar gharm to al] her writings. * f OR Biteb (2 int see eak I 14 fe hE pri kald | - N.C.

While thas engaged a knock was heard at the door, which the artist hastened to open. A stranger inquired for Mr. Alls- ston, and was anxious to learn who was the fortunate purchaser of the paiuting of “Angel Uriel,” which had won the prize at the exhibition of the Royal Academy. He was told that it was not sold. “Wheres is it to be found?” “In this room,” said Allston, producing the painting from a corner and wiping off the dust. “It is for sale, but its yalue has never been. ade-~ quately appreciated, and I would not part with it.” “What is the price?” “I have done fixing any nominal sum. I have always, so far, exceeded any offers. I leave it to you to name the price.” “Will tour hundred pounds be an adequate re. compeuse ?' “It is more than I ever asked for it.” “Then the painting is mine,” said the stranger, who iutroduced himself as the Marquis of Stafford, aud from that time became one of Mr. Allston’s warm est friends aud patrons. ~~ There was more than the usual cere- mony in Mr. Beecher’s church in Brook- lyn on Sunday, occasioned by the acces- sion of more than one hundred members to the communion. This was celebrated by a multitude of floral decorations and « cross surrounded by a crown, emblazon- ed “Victory.” Alter the service, Mr. Beecher distribuied the roses among the new members, a somewhat picturesque and appropriate custom. ‘l’hen was sung a‘Te Deum,” after which Mr. Beecher tnade what might be called a joyful dis- course. He did not thiak Coristianity should be gloomy and paintul. The New Testament was full of the idea of rejoic- ing ; aud joy, to Mr. Beecher’s mind, was a sign of love, yirtue and holiness. There was a popular idea that religion was a cominercial transaction, paying a certain amount of sorrow here for the sake of a very large dividen of joy hereafter ; but this was not the true view. > Compotsory Epcocarion.—It will be seen from our Albany news of this moras ing that the bill providing for the compul- sory education of children was yesterday passed by the State Senate. It is right and proper that no child should be allow- ed to grow up toclaim the rights of a citizen of the United States without hav- ing enjoyed the advantages of a common school education. Parents, of course, have aright to educate tueir children where and how they please; but the State has a right to say that they must be edueated. More and more compulsory edacation will become law among the civilized wations. It has long been the law in Prussia, where it has worked wonders. Itis now the law in England, and, sooner or later, the principle will be adopted by all the States of the Union.—N. Y. Herald. ———_~~ The Supreme Court of Tennessee has decided as illegal a law, passed a few years since by the Legislature of that State, imposing a special or privilege tax. ‘The groands of the decision are : Firet, that no power resides in one de- partment of government to destroy anoth- er, or impair the free exercise of its funct- ions ; second, that lawyers constitute a part of the judiciary, and are essential to the free exercise of its functions, as well as for the protection of the citizen in all his rights as for the aid and instruction of the court in the administration of the law; third, that to allow the right of specific taxation a8 to lawyers, is to allow it as to the courts. ‘There is no limit to this power of taxation, once admitted. In the exercise of it the Legislatare could des- troy, by taxing out of existence, the ju- diciary, and thus annihilate a cardinal branch of the government. ~~ SwaLu-Pox.—Dr. Conrad, Professor of the Washington Medical University of Baltimore, in a recent paper read before the Medical and Chirurgical Faeulty of Maryland upon the treatment of small- pox, gives some interesting statistics con~ cerning the number of cases treated at the Marine Hospital. Says he: “Had vari- oloid innoculation 1, died 1; never vaeci- nated or no eicatrik 410, died, 265; un- known if ever vaccinated 189, died, 90; said they had been vaccinated but no cicatrik 102, died, 61; having imperfect marks 262, died, 82, recently, that is from one to eight days, vaccinated 20, died, 18; having one good mark 166, died, 5, two or more good marks 84, deaths, none; total treated, 1,234, deaths 522; total mortality per cent, 42. There was not a singel case of death when the patient had a good mark from vaccination, done after the age of puberty.

A temperance movement has been com- menced at “Machester, England. On Sunday April 12, a meeting took place on the fairground at Knott Mill. From a temporary platform about a dozen workingmen’s wives addressed an attentive crowd on the evils of intemperance. The chairwoman said she had been a teetoteller twenty-seven years and had never regretted it. Some of the speakers were members of the Good Templar lodges, and were styled “sisters,” and all had in some way or other been brought over to total abstinance through the (terrible example of drunken husbands or fathers, One womail Introdeced herself as “no faraway bird, Dut the daughter of ‘old Joe Blank. the drunk- enest man in Deansgate ;” another speaker, also locally connected. said she “had been twenty- one years drink-cursed, having for a husband the greatest drunkard that ever walked the streets of Manchester,” This woman’s husband, who was at one time never without an excuse to thrash her, was now a reformed character. At the close of the speeches a number of persons took the temperance pledge. —-___—_ GENERAL CONFERENCE OF TILE METH- opiIst EpiscopaL CHurcn, Soura.— The General Couferance of the Methodist Episcopal Charch of the South assembled at the Public Library Hall, in Louisville, Friday morning.

Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters will rouse ‘and energize the mind and blood when the life power of the system isin a comparatively dormant state The languide, feeble, desponding invalid is not aware of the latent energies that underlies his debility. Hethinks there is no element oj his physicial capabilities are merely asleep and only require waking up. Let him stimulate and tone his animal machinery and endow it with new motive power, through the agency of this incomparable invigorant, and he will-soon feel like a new man, or rather like a man who has received a new lease of life, and the requis- ite health to enjoy it. Many busines men suffer from chronic languor and depression caused by too close application to business. Hard students are often oppressed with melancholy frum a like cause Mechanics and working men are affected in the same way as a result of overla- bor. To all who are in this condition, from whatever causé, Hostetters’s Stomach ’Bitters will prove a signal blessing. It is a perfect nacea for physical debility and mental glooin t strengthens the body, clears the mind and calms the nervous system ; while as a remedy for indigestion, biliousness, constipation, rheu- matism, and jntermittent and remittent fevers, it takes precedence of all other medicines.

One positive proof of its efficacy is, that its sales have constantly increased, and wholly upon its own merits. The effect of the PAIN-KILLER upon the patient when taken internally, in case Cold, Cough, Bowel Complaint, Cholera, Dy- sentery, and other afflictions of the system, has been truly wonderful, and has won for it a name among medical prepartions that can never be forgotten.

WADE’S “LIVER CORRECTOR,” AND CURE FOR DYSPEPSIA. Among the many discov eries in medicine of late, few are regarded with more ilterest than the valuable remedies for DYSPEPSIA. Of these, none stand higher among those who are familiar with its virtue than the “LIVER CORRECTOR.” Prof. MOORMAN, Physician at the White Sulphur Springs. eminent in his profession, and being well known in Baltimore, says of it : * YT consider it one of the BEST REMEDIES FOR DYSPEPSIA attended with constipation that I ever used.” Colonel GOODE, of Mecklenburg county, Va., an eminent lawyer, and a gentleman of anusal intelligence, says: ‘After long suffer- ing; that the “LIVER CORRECTOR” gave Phi fnore relief than al] othermedicine he has took. ” WILLIAMSBURG.

Manifestly the spirit of the law is to afford protection to our own mechanics and tradesmen. Mr. Linton, representing a house backed by a vast as mount of capital and employing a large number of hands can easily underséH avy tailor in North Carolina and if theré $s td rbe no protection for tailors, a thougand Mr. Lintons may come and drive oar tails ora to the dust whence they come. Again, every tradesman who deals in Ready- Made Clothing is compelled to pay. stax, but Mr. Linton, who sold more Ciothiog here in a week than most of onr merchants do in six months is exempted. Any one can see the palpable injustice of thie,’and it can hardly be supposed that the Legis lature meant to oppress our own citizens and favor those from other States. Of course, no one can blame the magis- trate for releasing Mr. Linton under. the instructions of the State ‘l‘reasurer, -and certainly nu blame can be attached to the rested and who was acting under the most able aud eminent legal advice. Mr. Lin- ton’s train was due at 10 o’clock and it was desirable that lhe should not be al- lowed to leave on that train. Hence his arrest at night ; and it should be stated that the gentleman at whose instance he was arrested heard of it for the first time Allen Ketchey, the that John who was sentenced to be hanged i?

The appalling frequency of the dreadtul crime ef which phe prisoncr was convicted, to say nothing _of the general character of the condemned, has produced avery profound sense of| “thé necessity of executing the law with | _Kigor. ee ape Foreign Emigrants for the | South. —Vhe Baltimore Sun, of the 11th | instant, reports the arrival there of a par- ty of desuitute foreigners, who, sent first | from Castle Garden to Chester S. C., work on the plantation, became diacudes| fied and dishearted at prospects of their Svathern home, and | were making their way back toN. Y., but _awere kindly provided for at Balucierc, and thence took a new departure for the the condi‘ions and | West, where the party expected to join ~-pelatives and fricuds. The general tone of the Sun's report of | this case, acemed to imply that the South was a hard place for emigrants to come -4e;,.and with the conyiction that there *mtst be some error in this view of it, we were led to wake inquiries of an English | emigrant, now employed in one of our) staxes bere, (Mr. W.) for his experience, | \ observation aud views on the subject of « -fereiga emigrants coming Soath. Lis conviction is, that if agents who are sent te engage and furward emigrants to the South will select them with reference to | AMBer former pursuits in life as well as in otfgrence to the work required of them in| their new homes, there will probably be no after dienatistacuon either on the part | of emigrants or their employers.

According to Japanese law he was punishable by death. Considering he was bound to notify the fact to his gov- ernment, he wrote home and renounced all farther claim to his allowance, ‘The government of Yedo thereupon instituted inquiries in America into the manner in which the yonng man was following his studies ; the result of these being in favor, all the reply that he obtained from the Japanese government in answer to his annual allowance to $1 500. ——__~+<>-___—— The Montgomery (Ala.) Advertiser says: “We witnessed the operation of converting water into ice yesterday at the factory established by Dr. Lee. The machinery is of the best qaality. The engine (one hundred horse power) is now running night and day, and thus for the company have only been able to accumu- late sixty thousand pounds, the demand having exceeded the expectation of the company. Shipments are daily made to Birmingham, Selma, Greenville, Union Springs and Opelika. The eondensed water which is converted into ice is of the purest quality, and therefore the ice is as tranepalent as glass. In the manufactur- ing and distribution of ice this company givesemployment to about twenty-five men, most of whom have families, and it may safely be stated that it supports from seventy-five to one hundred persons, besides paying a good dividend to the stockbolders. ——— pe Trovusle Brewinc.—Railroad laws have been passed by Illinois, Iowa and Winsconsin. It remains to be seen whether they will relieve the farmer. It is said that some of the principal roads in Wis- consin have devermined to disregard the law, which goes into effect the 1st of next month. ‘lhe way it will be done is thus given: Ifa ticket agent refusing to ac- cept the fare fixed by law is arrested and punished, they will close the ticket office in which he is stationed ; and if a freight agent is prosecuted, they will close the freight office. The trains will run by the stations at which the offence is given without stopping, and leave the people who are dissatisfied with their rates with- out any railroad facilities at all. It iz probable that a similar policy will be adopted by other roads in the same State, and it is easy to see that such a coarse will create more bitter feeling than has yet shown itself in the war which has al ready waged hotly in the West between the Grangers and the railroads. ee PROSPECTIVE ORIENTAL War.—The Khedive of Egpyt is growing more and more aggressive, and, uninfluenced by the immobility of Fyramids and the Sphux, displays excursive and filibuster ish propensities. Elated by his recent conquest in Central Africa be has now fixed his eyes loigingly upon Abyssinnia, with the view of annexing it toKgypt ane then proclaming himself ‘Sultan of Egypt.’ Great alarm has been caused at Constauti- nople by this intelligence, which has been further aggrayated by a memorandum recently submitted to the Grand Vizier, tian extraction ; that the successors of Omar and Osman became Cxliphs only by the right of conquest, not by the elec. tion of the faithful; and that an Egpytian Sultan will prove a dangerous rival to the present one as the legal representative of the Calips. What “the sick man’ will do about it has not yet been made appar- ent. Whether he is sufficiently convale- scent to do anything is a matter of great doubt. ee Ag an encouragement to our Brookville friends who contemplate establishing a cheese factory, it may be stated that the quantity of cheese sent from this country to England is astonishing, During the three months of of January, February, and March it amounted to €2,830,230—a gain over the corresponding quarter of last yesr of more than four hundred thou- sand dollars. With both a home and foreign market, the manufacture of cheese ought to prove profitable.—Lynchburg Republican. ~~ Nests ror Serting Hens.—We do not often see nests for setting hens prop- erly made. Hay is most commonly ased but its seed attracts mice, and it is scratch- ed about by the hen in quest of the seed aa food. Besides it is too dry, and eggs must be kept damp in some way, as they lose water steadily by evaporation. We prefer damp earth hollowed out and cov- ered with finely cut straw, which will not become entangled in the feet ot the The curve of the nest must be neither too great nor so small as not to ing wire cloth at the ends or sides to let n air.

The Little Rock Gazette was h¢ ap by Baxter, the oppositiou re ‘ to turn bourbon, and to split the Brooks party ; it hoisted the straightousrtigket for Andrew Hanter, a very good*and worthy man. Baxter hag since.givea.the Gazette the public printing for two goun- ties, and it is generally believed it got sixteen thourand dollars besides. Brooks was elected by a large majority even making large allowance for frauds and scratchings. Clayton ran the machine for Baxter and gent out men to bribe the registers to scratch off names sufficient to carry the State. Elisha Baxter, was a good andprominent man in Tennessee. Report says that Jobn has but little use for Elisha. Baxter went to Arkansas in 1854 and he has run for every office from magistrate up and has been elected to none. He is about 52, yery fine looking, a blank, expressionless kind of character bat very smooth featured. He wasa strong Confederate when the war broke out, made flamiug war speeches, and was commissary for a time in Col. DeSha’s regiment. He afterwards deserted to the yanks and at the close of war he was made register in bankruptey. . After the election the votes were counted out by the President of the Senate, not in pre- sence of both houses, but only a few pre- sent, and Baxter himself vf the number. Chief Justice John McCare, familliarly ealled “Poker Jack,’ administered the oath of office on the spet, and soon after- wards administered the same oath of office .to Brooks, “and,” said the Senator, “if I could flip them both out and offer a con- sideration be would administer the same oath to me. ‘The Senator gave mea red ticket with “admit” written on it that he had to get trom Qol.

Walker’s California Vin- egar Bitters are a purely preparation, made chiefly from Da- tive herbs found onthe lower ranges of the Sierra Nevada mountains of Califor- nia, the medicinal properties of which are extracted therefrom without the use of Alcohol. ‘The question is almost daily asked. “‘ What is the cause of the unparalicled suc of VinrGaRk Bit- TERS?” Our answer js, that they remove the cause of disease, and the patient re- covers his health. They are the great blood purifier and a life-giving principle, a perfect Renovator and Invigorator of the system. Never before in the histery of the world has a medicine been compounded possessing the remarkable qualities of VixeGaR BITTERS in healing the sick of every disease manis heir to. They are & geutle Purgative as well as a Tonic, relieving Congestion or Inflammation of the Liver aud Visceral Organs in Bilious Diseases The properties of Dr. WaLKEr’s VixeGar Birrers are Aperient, dag wamhorni Carminative, Nutritious, Laxative, Diuretic, Sedative, Counter-Irritant Sudorific, Altera- tive, and Anti-Bilious. ; + “Grateful ‘i sousands proclaim VLy- EGAR BITTERS the most wonderful In- vigorant that evcr sustained the sinking system. . No Person can take these Bitters according to directions, and remain long unwell, provided their bones are not de- stroyed by mineral poison or other means, and Vital organs wasted beyond repair. Bilionus, Remittent and Inter- mittent Fevers, which are so preva- Jent.in the valleys of our great rivers throughout the United States, especially those of the Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri, Illinois, Tennessee, Cumberland, Arkan- sas, Red, Colorado, Brazos, Rio Grande, Pearl, Alabaina, Mobile, Savannah, Ro- anoke, James, and many others, with their vast tributaries, throughout our entire country during the Summer and Autumn, and remarkably so during sea- sons of unusual heat and dryness, are invariably accompanied by extensive de- rangements of the ctomach and liver, and other abdominal viscera. In their treatment, a purgative, exerting a pow- erful induence upon these various or- gans, is essentiaily necessary. There is ho cathartic for the purpose equal to Dr. J. WALKERS VINEGAR BIrrens, as they will speedily remove the dark- colored viscid matter with which the bowels are loaded, at the same time stimulating the secretions of the liver, and generally restoring the healthy functions of the digestive organs. Fortify the body against disease by purifving ail its (aids with VINEGAR Bitrers. No epidemic can take hold of a system thus fore-armed. Dyspepsia or hidigestion, Head- ache, Pain in the Shoulders, Coughe, Tightness of the Chest. Dizziness. Sour Fructations of the Stomach, Bad Taste in the Mouth, Bilious Attacks, Palpiia- tation of the Heart, Ingammation of the Lungs, Pain in the regien of the Kid neys, and a hundred other painful symp- toms, are the ofisprings of Dyspepsia.

Sere Eyes, ete. In these, as in all other constitutional Dis- easex, WaLKer’s Vinecar Birrers bavo shown their great curative powers in the most obstinate and intractable cases. For Inflammatory and Chronic Rheumatism, Gout, Biflous, Remit- tent and Intermittent Fevers, Diseuses of the Blood, Liver, Kidneys and Bladder, these Litters have no equal. Such Diseases are caused by Vitiated Blood. Mechanical Diseases.—Persons en- gaged in Paints and Minerals, such as Plumbers, ‘T'ype-setters, Gold-beaters, and Miners, as they adrance in life, are subject to paralysis of the Lowels. To guard against this, take a dose of WALKER's VIN- EGAR BITTERS occasionally. For Skin Diseases, Eruptions, Tet- ter, Salt-Rheum, Blotches, Spats, Pimples, Pustules, Boils, Carbuncles, Ring-worms, Scald-head, Sore Eyes, Erysipelas, Itcb, Scurfs, Discolorations of the Skin, Iumors and Diseases of the Skin of whatever name or nature, are litera'lly dug up and carned out of the systein in a short timo by the use of these Bitters. Pin, Tape, and other Worms, lurking in the system of so many tNousands, are effectually destroyed and removed. No system of medicine, no vermifuges, no an- thelminitics will free the system trom worms like these Bitters. . For Female Complaints, in young or old, married or ingle, at the dawn of wo- manhood, or the tuin of life, these Tonie Bitters display so decided an influence that improvement is soc perceptible.

MAY SY The fatermal Revenue System—Its Evils, OPPRESSIONS, AND ABUSES. SPEECH oF HON. WILLIAM M. ROBBINS, OF NORTH CAROLINA, Ix tax House ov Reprbstsrartives; Friday, May 8, 1874. The House, agin CERAM Wore, Waving under consi iow sident’s auoual message i Sere . - SPEAKEBA hen Louis Napoleon, twenty-two years ago, struck down the lib- erties of France by his celebrated coup d'etat and erected his throne on the ruins he scar- cely possessed inore effective agencies forthe accomplishment of his purposes than are now in the hands of the President of the United States. He had perhaps amore subservient army, theugh unfortunately ours has often recently proved itself a conyenient in— strument for the perpetration of very gross outages and invasions of popular rights. Butifwe look at other means and other tools for seizing and maintaining supreme autocratic power, we find our soldier president as well provided with them as was the prince president of 1851. Napoleon contrived to draw into allianee with him the inoney po ver, monopolies. the soulless cor- voratious of France—all, in short, who loved weal:h more than liberty, and who wished for an energetic goverament to protect them iu their nujust exactions, and against the complaints of the down-trodden masses. In like nanner we have seeu our President all through his administration court the sup port and the favor of the money lords to the vegleet ofthe interests of the toiling wil- lions: and by his latest act, his veto of the bill for the expausicu of the currency, he has thrown himself into the avins of the baukers. the monopolists, and the money- changers—the entire creditor class—and thev are now singing peans iu his praise. while he turns his back upon the str ‘ggling debtors aud toiling aricultarist of the West and Soath and leaves thein to perish, crush ed by a mountian of- accumulated burdeus. Even Napoleon sought how he inight favgr the agriculturists. Grant utterly deserts them. : To ran out tha parallel. however;:Napo- leon had his multitudes of deputies and pre- feets in all the provinces and departments, his creatures and tovls, who owed their ofBecial being to his individual will. and were ready at a word from their master to shape public opinion, aud by cajolery, inti- midgtion, vr fraud to carry electiuns as night be-dictated by the central power, the sileut ephiox, at Paris. The people were ingen- iously deceived by the establishment of *usi- an euffrage,” end led into the belief that peag Gere the all-powerfal arbiters of their ting, whilethis nachiné of :-universal b i manipulated by the inter- ened agente uf despotism, recorded uvt the will of y but the will of one man. And here we have the sane “univers:l suff- rage” and prostituted ballot, ard a like multitude of officials aud placemen depen- dent on one tan, for their positions and equally active in doiug the bidding of their master at Washington, intimdating and corrupting tae voters, controlling conven- tions, oppressing freemen, eheating the ig- norant, ma: iputating ballot-boxes. engin- eering elections, perpetrating frands, aud fiually. when all else fails, committing the foulest usurpatiorsin the cootident and after well fouuded hope that the inaster an? the party they serve will uphold them in their daring outrages upon liberty, law, even decency. Such seems to ne the parallel between the circuinstances of the prince president and the soldier presideut—the situation of France in 1351-52 and Ameriea in 1774. Tn the one case we know the ‘result ; usur- pation, despotism, the empire, universal cor- ruption like a worm eating out the heart of national virtue, aud at length a collapse which astounded the world. In the other oase what will be the event we must wait to see. Tam frank to say, neverthless. that I have small fear that Grant grill try to play the role of Napoleon. Ido not believe he is un- patriotic enough to do that. Far be it frown ine to do h'in injustice by charging him with studied designs against the liberties of his country. But is it vot a humiliating situation for us that we should owe our lib- erties to the forbearance of one man 2? More- over, among those who are to come after hin, are we sure that there may not soon arise some one whose domineering and ar- lug ambition may prompt him to put in exercise the mighty engiuery which Grant forbears to use in its full force, aud make us all his subjects ? Aimoug the inauy reasons, some of which T shall eudearor to specify. why the present Internal- revenue systein ought at once to be totally abolished. is its tendency to eeutrali- zation and the absorption of all power in the Federal Government and ultimately inthe hands ofone mau. It works toward this result in mauy ways. a3 by introdneing the constant surveillance of Federal officials into the daily employmeuts and most intimate affairs of the people. by augmenting the jurisdiction of the Federal courts. aud espe- cially by adding so exteusively to the patron- age of the Exeentive. Before the introduetion of this system the people traly felt that they governed them- selves, and lightly did their own self-imposed yoke rest upon thein; but now they painful- ly realize that they are governed—goverued by st:angers or by the sycophants of power. aud grinding is the burden. On a man's ownlata grow his own fruit trees planted by his own haud and Jaden with luscious fruits ripened by the bountifal sunlight of Heaven. He feels that he ought tu have the right to de what he pleases with that which ia so teuly bis own. What he ought to do with it oeftt&er von nor [ -have a right to say ; perhaps wesmight uot think es he does about th=t. In the exercise of his indispatable privilege he chooses to convert setactiee: brady, for the purpose of tting them ints a fourm less perishable and gore available for market. or for uses of various sorts iu bis own family or business.

By the same system the jurisdiction and importance of the Federal courts is vastly increased, in so much that they are rapidly overshadowing the State courts. A few years ago the United States courts were practically unkuown in North Carolina, their proceediugs being eontined almost en- tirely to the adjudication . of an occa- sional admiralty case, of which scarcely ove man in a thousand ever heard men- ‘ion made. Now a session of the Federal court is a great event, aud brings together throngs of citizens as jurors, parties litigant, or witnesses. from the most reimote parts of the State, entailing great expenses, loss of time, and inany inconveniences to the people. No siugle feature of the great reyolu- tion which has recently occurred in this coun- tryis nore notable than the sudden growth which has taken plaee in the assumed pow- ers prerogatives of the Fed ral judiciary. I cannot now digress from thé subject iu hand to enter upon a full disenssion of this matter, I may recur to it at some other time, and enlarge upon the manuer in which the local adininistration of jastice is being superseded by onr Federal courts. When the laws of North Carolina are violated it would seem bnt proper that the trial aud punishment of the offeuder should be lefi to North Carolina tribuuals. But under your legislation it is not so. The. murderer, the robber, the ravisher iudieted iu the State courts has only to swear that he believes be caanot have justice done him in those courte, and it is contended under your reeent laws that be is evtitled to have his case removed to the United State courts for trial. To the jail at Raleigh there is to-day confined a mau who committed a cold-blooded murder in Char- lotte four years ago; but the State whose law he thus violated is inhibited from trying and punishing him unless your Supreme Court, to whieh the case has gone, shall de- cide that she has the right to du so. Ifhe had been a white man and not a negro, doubtless death and the devil would have claimed him for their own long si __ Bat I eannot now to give full and no- tice, as I hope to du hereafter. to the ominous eucrorchineuts of the Federa! tribusele upou the proper jurisdietion ef the State courte. The subject is one of vast importuace. There inay be those who, in their overweening de- sire to see the power and prestige of the Federal Goverument augmented, may not deem it an evil to have the prerogatives of the Federal judiciary thus extended. But thoughtful patriots, in view of receut eveuts, neut overtarned by the decree of a Federal distriet jadge. will pereeive in the new as- stinptious of power on the part of the Fed- eral judiciary the most imminent danger to that fundamental principle of liberty, local self-goverument. Oua of the greatest evils of the internal- revenue systeu aud on which most tends to the centralization of power. is the increase patronage which it gives ta.the President. I do not Kuow, vobody does. know, precisely the niober of vfficials, bigh and low. which the Excentive has by law the right to ap- point, or vominate, which is usually the sane as appointing them. Cabinet officers, judges, postmasters, cusioms officers, Indian agents, internal-revevug officials of every grade—all these are the actual or virtue ap- poiutees of the President. and a large portion of them belong to the internal-reveuue ser- vice. Being the appoiutees of the President. inost of them belong to his party and are per- sovally and politically his supple tocls and bind apologists and gapporters. Just thiok of it. Ina country possessing a republican forin of government, wherein the people are said tu have the right to elect their own rulers aud officers. in aconutry where the iJea of universal suffrage prevails, more than half of }all the officers are elected by one man! What sort of republican government is this? Away with such republicanisin ! In North Carolina, from the governor to eerk and constable of a township. our offi- cials are chosen by the people. Why stould it not beso inthe case of the collectors aud other principal officers of the internal-rev- enne service? Theseoticers. in thedischarge of their duties, come into daily contact with the people, and the manner in which they perform their functions is of vital importance to the happiness and prosperity of the people. Why not then allow them to be elec- ted by the people whose inost istimate cou- cerus they are to oversee and pryinto? If we were allowed to elect our own officers in this department wecould vo doubt find some North Carolinian, tofill every place in our State. As it isnow we have no man from the State cof Maine filling the office cf super- visor of internal revnue forthe States of North aud South Carolina, from which I suppose weareto infer that the President thought he could not find in those two States, in either party, auy inan who, in his opinion, wassuitable forthe position. Inthe name of the people of North and South Carolinia I protest against such injustice. In either State and in either party ean be found many men far more suitable and more worthy to be our supervisor uf iuternal revenue than the mav from Maine whom the Executive has placed overus. Give the people the privilege of choosing their own officers. If the interpal-revenue system is not be abolished forthwith, as it should be, at least grant the people the right to elect the collectors and all the other prin- cipal officials of that service in the respective districts. I demand this in the interest of the constituency I have the honor to repre- sent. Jtis fall time sucha pulicy were adupted in vindieation of popular liberty against the eneroachmests of the one man power, There is no more propriety in de- priviog the people of the right to choose their collectors of iuterval. revenue. for in- stance, than their would bein refusing them the privilege of electing theit sheriffs, solici- fade! er a D fie e ae in }iwhose d dies: ratify ‘ingotev i aorta odd had ten dribfiegu toateli tensa gop amoug which we have seem a .Btate govern. | OH eens 6 mR Beis to ‘ore fn AG tye mmytieds of! beven Ge ‘ofterss d aia ¥ every. citizen »throughy opal é ang.

Ifyou have heard nothing of this sort trom North Carolina, where such abuses are rampant, it. is because the Federal officials in their affairs that they have come to look upon itas one of the inevitables. Why, sir, in a delegation of six men, whom I chanced to Bee on their way do the convention which nominated my opponent for Congress, five were officers of the United States Gagernament. And in the canvass which followed for the seat I now hold here, great as was the ability and energy @f my worthy competitor, his opposi- tion was asa drep in the bucket to that which I had to encounter in the phalaux of revenue officials and placemen, many yf whom were kappointed to positions with no duty to perfurm except to draw their’‘pay of $130 a month and ride day.and night among the people election- eering fur thier candidates. It is inconceiva- ble what activity they displayed and what expedients they resorted to, intimidating some of the voters by theats of prosecution, currup- ting others by promises to wink at their eva- sious of the law, cajoling, bullying, browbeat- ing ; even going so far on one occasion as to present fire-arms at myself while onthe plat- form making a speech, because I dared to de- nounce, in -as fitting terms as ‘I could the infinitude of (heir villainy. If such things are to go on till they become chronic and inveterate, how long will it be be- fore the freedow of elections will entirely vanish and the ballot-box be nothing more than a machine for registering the decrees of the man at the White House! ‘ Another reason for abolishing the .internal- revenue system is the demoralizing influence it exerts both upon its own officials and apon the people. It affords extraordinary facilities for peculation, Ido not wish by any means to make reckless and indiscriminate charges against those who are engaged in this service, many of whom are no doubt honest and up- right men. But it is undeniable that fortunes have been made by some of them very disproportionate to their lawful salaries; and it is well known that in many in- stances these officials use their positions to black-mail.citizens by entrapping them into vio- lations of the law and receiving money to quash proceedings or to wink at irregularties. But the sysiem is still more demoralizing ia -ata influence . oP have people are watehed by apies and informers in their daily employments, as if they were desti- tute of honor aaa not to be trusted in their dealings with the Government. Nothing can be more humiliating and degrading to the spirit of American freemen than this espionage. If possible it will make cheats and swindlers ont of honest men. By the way you watch them you clearly intimate that they are expec- ted cheat you and run the blockade when they can; and that they take care to not disappoint your expectations. If vou would only trust the integrity of the people they would not fail you. Bat you pursue them with spies, and they dodge them. You seek to bind them with oatis and pledges, until oaths become a by-word and use all sanctity. In the South since the war you have required us to swear so often that we got to swearing when not required. Instead of this degrading process, if vou must continue your jaternal taxation, why not adopt a simple and straightforward plan for ascertaining the amountot the taxables, like the State of North Carolina ddes ? The State simply requires each citizen to give in the list of his taxable property himself, and takes his word for it except in unusual cases, In like manner, why cannot the United States allow every man to give in the amount of spirits he makes or tobacco he raises ormannfactures 2? In my opinion you would thus come nearer getting a correct accountot these things than by your present plan; and by simplifying and cheapening your method ot collecting the tax a much larger amount of it would reach the Treasury. 3ut the revenue system is further demoraliz- ing by the great multitude and variety of offices it creates, Which, itis no secret, are considered in North Carolina, and perhaps elsewhere, principally as baits with which to catch hungry democraiic gudgconus and land them safe in the radical party. The rank and file of that party in the South consists mainly of the negroes, with whom are united number of plain, honest men Who entertained Union sentiments during the war, and were induced to become repacli- cans through their prejudices. The the party are alinost all men once bitter deino- crats who have gone over tothe radicals in the hope ofsccuring office or making money; and i leaders of know of no instance where a previously respect- able man gues over to them except in anticipation ofreceiving sume appointment as the price of his tergiversation. This oceasional metamorphosis of an impe- cunivus democrat in an otlice-holding radical is a process extremely curious to wateh. Most likely the individual has been blatant and ex- treme in his professions of democracy ; perhaps a Lluody secessionist. But the first thing vou know the active partisan grows strangely silent and reserved ; he mopes around like a chicken with the gapes, with feathers frowzled ; he avoids as far as he can the company of comra- des, is sheepish and downgast, cannot look a mau in the face, but looks ashamed. like he felt mean and was about to do a mean thing. When you see these signs the poor fellow is near his end—the end, Linean, of his honorable and scli-respecting existence. Very soon heis in some lederal ofiice, and professes to have found out the mistakes in his former opinions and accordingly changed them? So rauch for the corrupting and demoralizing tendencies of the internal-revenue system, The sysiem ought also to be abolished on ac- count of the inequality of the burdens it im pos- es upon differgnt sections of the Union, and particularly because it oppresses the agricul- tural interest. The larger portion of the reve- nue 1s raised on spirits and tobaceo, both of which are products of the husbandman. The tillage Ble soils is the foundation of all other employments and the true key to national wealth in a country Possessing a soil and climate like ours. Taxation, therefore. which lays its heaviest burdens upon this most essentia! calling must be unwise and mischie- vious. Here is a point to which the grangers would do well to direct special attention. It ia sometimes said that tobacco and spirits are luxuries and that it is a!l Tight to tax them as such. Bot they @re ao Wixeries'to hint who ] Produces them. Thelabor which it takex to abyerpeaenai is as any other, and is entit- ed toite reward wi arjust and val taxes being levid upon it.

By taxing it you impose a dispropor- + tionate burden on these already Cepressed com- munities, and allowtherich States of the North- east to escape their justshare of revenue exac- tions; thistoo, while they have plenty of money themselves, persistently pefitse to. allow any expansion of the currency so that the West and Soath could command the means to pay the heavy taxes thus levied on them. For all the reasons mentioned, and others which I must pass over, this whole system of internal taxation ought to be uprooted and other means for raising the necessary revenue devised. Thnow we havea large debt to pay growing out of the war, and the current expen- ses might be retrenched greatly. It is incredi- ble that a government which cost, but seventy- five millions annually fifteen years since, under what was thens denounced as an extravagant administration, should row cost one hundred and seventy-five dr two hundrtd millions, if proper economy prevailed. Then, as io the debt, we should only aim to keep the interest paid and’a very sma!l annual amount on the principal to show that we mean to pay it, and postpone the payment of the main debt till the next generation, when thisgouniry will be one of the richest and most populous On eirth and can pay off this debt without feeling it. If this plan be adopted we can so curtail the amount of money required that a moderate increase of daties on imports will provide for all our wants and however we may regret to see the tariff in- creased, it will certainly be less objectionable than the present system of internal revenue, which could thus be dispensed with. Both the the old whig and democratic parties always agreed that a tariff for necessary revenue was good policy ; they only differed in those days as to the propriety of going further than this. If, however, the internal-revenue system is to be continued, amendments ought to be made which would ameliorate its evils and burdens, Ihave already suggested some of these amend- ments in thecourse of my remarks, among which are the election of the ehief revenue officers, (practicable by altering the constitution, jf not go comrncest enactment, and essential, if e system is to be perpetuated.) and allowing the amount of tobacco raised, or spirits made, to be given in by the producer. as the States W require taxables to be listed, and without these maby other a os n hme | bFings ato revenue while it seriously number of citizens. Store-keepers at small distilleries ought to be dispensed with. In my district many distilleries do net average a pro- duct of more than ten gallons of spirits daily, on which the tax is seven dollars; and vet at each one of these distilleries a store-keeper is required, whose pay is four dollars a day. This and other expenses make the cost ofcollection insuch cases greater than the amount collected. Surely the people can be trusted for enough to ts should be made ould be ; : harasses a large spirits made at these little distilleries. such for instance as do not exceed 9 capacity of tw enty- five gallonsa day. 1 have introduced a bill, which was referred to the Committee and Means. providing that in these ceses the distiller shall report: his monthly product of spirits to the collector, store-keepers to be dis- pensed with. The bill also contains a section reducing the tax on brandy ta fifty gallon. Thope this bill may receive favorable consideration in this House. Another very great injustice is done by the law to the producers of tobacco. It is the pro- vision twhich forbids the — tobacco-grower from selling to anybody except to a licensed dealer, a manufacture, or an agent buying for exporauion. This limits the purchasers toa smatli number of men. and of course reduces the price’ Soextraordinary a law ought not tu cxist.a day longer. Why refuse to the grow- er of tobacco the privilege of a free and open market? Why not let him sell to whoever will pay him the most for his commodity?) Every body else can do this. Why discriminate a- gainst him in this unjust manner ?- There ate many ‘other points in connection with this subject which I should be glad to touch did time permit. But I see my hour is running eut and I must close. If what I have aaid shall induce the House to take this matter into consideration and either abolish the inter- nal-revenue system. orat least reform its most flazrant evils and abnees, I shall be well repaid for the trouble of making these remarks, I thank the House for the patience attention with which it has heard me. +P and ScuEME.—The | final scheme announced by the manag rs. of the “gift concerts,” lotteries, of the ; Public Library of Kentucky smpasser in magnitude and -delusivences any o their preceding schemes.

Upon motion of James E. Kerr, Eagq., John S, Henderson, Esq., was called to the chair, and upon motion J. G. Filem- ming, Esq., Joseph A. Hawkins and W. M. Kincaid were elected Secretaries. Upon a call of the roll of the different townships it was ascertained that dele~ gates from all the townships were present and answered to their names. ‘The Chair- man then announced that the Convention was ready for the transaction of business. Major X. F. Hall offered the following resolutions which were unanimously adopt- ed. Resolved (1) That we heartily endorse and approve the plan of organization, and platform of principles adopted by the Democratic-Conservative State Executive Committee. (2) ‘That a Convention be held in the June 1874 for the purpose of nominating | candidates for the House of Representa- tives ahd*for County officers. (8) That the Executive Committees of the different townships be requested to hold primary meetings and send dele- gates, (4) That the Chairman of this meeting appoint fifty delegates to attend the Con- gressioual Convention to be held at Wilkes- boro on the 11th day of June 1874, twen- ty-five delegates to attend the Judicial District Convention to be held at Wi:s- ton on the 19.h inet, and twenty-five delegates to attend the Senatorial Conven- tion, which we recommend shall be held on Saturday the 13:h day of June 1874 at Foard’s Mills. (5) That the Chairman and Secreta- ries of this Conveation be added to the list of delegates to each of the above Con- ventions. Pending the adoption of the above resolutions ableand patr.otic speech es were made by James EX. Keer, E-q., and the Hon. F. E. Shober urging the necessity of a complete and perfect or- ganization of our party, and predicting the defeat of the Repablican Party in the ensuing elections. The Secretaries re~ ret that they have not space to report a full synopsis of the eloquent speeches of these gentlemen. . Upon motion of Dr. Chunn the differ- ent townships were requested to hold their primary meetings on Saturday the 3rd and at the hour of 1l.o’clock P.

We are gratified to learn that the county convention was well attended last Saturday, aud that/much interest was manifested in ite proceedings by our country friende. A conventionce is certainly the only fair and legitimate way to determine who shall be the standard bearers of a party in any canvaes ; provided it is a full and untrammeled one. And it is especially important that the friends of good order, good government and reform should unite this year and secure the election of our best men. There is no chance to pack a conven tion if the people will tarn out.

It is always fair to give and take, let us then, if we go into the convention, resolve to stand by ita action, and if we can’t get our firat choice take the next best we can get. If the people of the country will agree upon this coure and come to the conven- tion in a body, there will be no difficulty whatever in agreeing upon good and sui table men. But if they will give way or nocon- depend upon others to do the work for | them, the chances are that*the whole thing will turn out to be a farce. ee OUR DORMANT ENERGIES.

Sniimerate ibjects of int at 5 ended to notive ; es shall refer to them more’jn detail hereafter as opportunity may offer, — , Raleigh is really one of the most charming towns in our Southern couutry, and is rapidly growing inte a commercial city of no mean im- ance. The population, trade and business of the place have all more than doubled. within the last few years. The clase of buildings just completed and in process of erection* will do credit to any city in the country, and am,to the hospitality and enterprise of her pedplé, they have been sufficiently tested and are all that could be desired. Her institutions of learning (St. Mary’s, Baptist Female Seminary, and the Peace Institute,) visited by us are of the first order and we were glad to learn in a prosperous condition. ~The State’s charitable Institutions were also visited and thoroughly inspected.— The Press Association had been specially invit- ed to visit all the Public Institutions and of course it is to be presumed that every thing was put in the best preparation for the occasion; but the intelligent observer can always detect the temporary from the permanent, the false from the real, and is not apt to be deceived by the mere superficial. We could very easily imagine every thing in the best of order, and yet see enough to convince us as to the general good or bad management. It was for the pur- pose of ascertaining the fact, doubtless, that the majority of the Association consented to visit the Insane Asylum, the Deaf and Dumb and Blind Institute and the Penitentiary under the circumstances, and we are glad to know that all were more or less favorably impressed with what they saw, and with the general manage- ment of the yarious Institutions visited. We really think that Dr. Grissom and his assistants, Dr. Fuller and Mrs. Higgins, at the Asylum forthe Insane, are the right persons in the right place. We were highly pleased with what we were able to see and learn of the management of this Institution under their contro, and we should regard the removal or withdrawal of Dr. Grissom as a calamnity, and especially un- fortunate for those under, his charge. The same ina great measure may be said of the Deaf & Dumb & Blind Institute, under thé su- perintendence of Mr. John Nichols, aasisted by Mr. Cook. ‘We didnothavea chance, however, ta look through this Ingtitutionas thoroughly as was desirable as our visit was at night. / At the Penitentiary we found thihgs thoving | dlotfgin good ‘style.

At oe end of the late war it was but a wayside station, now it is a town of beautiful buildings, streets, promonades, and manufaetories unequaled in number and importanee by any ‘other town in the State. It is coneuming thou- sands -ef yards of cloth weekly in the mannfactory of smoking tobacco bags. alone. - From one little unassuming to~ bacco manufactory in 1865, there have grown up more than a dozen others of various kinds, employing large nambers of hands and controling yast sume of mon ey. ‘Tre success that has attended the enterpriee of a few men there is really wo1.- derful. Durham is a striking exemplié- cation of: what plack and energy can do, and what may be expected from the es. tablishment of manofactories. Mr. Black- well, the pioneer ia the tobaece ‘business at Durham. starting with bata few hundred dollars, has not only made a fortune, but as the prime mover, built up a town that promises soon to outstrip ali others in the State in many particulars. Now, the lands around Salisbury are just as well adapted to the cultivation of tobacco as those around Durham ; our lo- cation is more favorable for the establish- ment of mauufactories ; all we lack ia en- terprise. We believe that many of our merchants would realize greater receipts on their money if invested in manufac- tories of some description. It is certain that the experience of other places since the war is such as to satisfy us that it is vo uncertain or doubtful audertaking. — ‘There is scarcely au instance where par- ties have gone into the manufaeture of cloth, tobacco, or any thing else in the Southern couatry aiace the war and fail- ed. “1, is now&lmost impossible that any should do so, where there is energy, skill, or other proper qualifications employed. gene of the.pictares nf the North Car )edi~ sd pliken-ia-agrqup by* phat 9) attist,, Mr, J.'B,, Watson, af” Raleigh; N Qes. say.

At any rate, the town debt does vot, we suppose, exceed a thou- pand or two dollars. We would like to we farnished with a statement ; and in Le- half of our citizens we again call for that report. _—~- That Report.—A short time back we called for a statement of the receipts @md disbnrsments of the funds of the Town for the year ending onthe 4th of May inst. This report the law requir- esto be made by the Clerk; for some reazon or other the Clerk has made no report, and the Commissioners have ¢on- tented themselves with that of the town tfeastrer, which they bave had posted ap Siig Court house.

Five Hundred Thousand Years The New York National condenses from an England scientific periodical some interesting speculations:of Dr. -Alfred Russel Wallace on the probable intiquity of the human species. They, may well startle, it says, even those who have long since come to the -conclus on Bhat 6,000 years carry-us but as way back to | the original home. In fact in Dr. Wal- lace’s reckoning, 6,000 years apes but a day. He reviews the varibig fliempts to determine the antiquity.of human:semains or work of art, and finds the bronze age in Europe to have Been pretty accurate- ly fixed at 3,000 or4,000 years ago, the stone age of the Swiss lake dwelling at at 5,000 to 7,000 years, “and au indefinite anterior period.” Te burnt brick found sixty feet deep in th® Nile alluvium, in~ dicates an antiquity of 20,000 years ; ans other fragment at seventy-two feet gives 30,000 years. ‘A human skeleton found at the depth of sixteen feét below four hundred buried forest superposed upon each other, has been calculated by Dr. Dowler to have an antiquity of 40,000 years.” «But all these estimates pale be- fore those which Kent’s cavern at Tor quary legitimates. Here the drip of the stalagmite is the chief factor of our com~ putations, giving us an upper floor which divides the relics of the last two or threc thousand years from a deposit full of the bones of extinct nammalia, aud glutton, indicating an arctic climate. Names cut iu the stalagmite more than 200 years are still legible ; in other words, where the stalagmite is twelve feet thick and the drip siill very copious, not. more than a hundredth of a foot has been deposited with the space of two cen- turies—a rate of five feet in 10,000 years. Below this, however. we have a thick, o'der and more crystaline (7. e.,) more slowly formed) stalagamite. beneath which again, “in a solid breccia, very different from the cave earth, undoubted works of art have been found.” Mr, Wal- lace assumes only 100,000 years for the upper floor, avd about 250,000 for the the Warsaw Hore “an absence of fruits implied do pagel We — urged i heer — the importance of a regtilat sapply of 1 fruit to prevent di-ease, and Meisted aus the best medicine-chest whieh an emigra: ' ling family could catry toa newly settled country would be a box of ‘early-beariig fruit trees, currants, ry avd rasps berry bushes, and platites “We knew a family who a West, and took with them ‘a very latge supply of the first summer.

The following from the Memphis Ap-~ peul cuts like a two-edged sword. We have rarely seen more matter for reflec- tion compressed into so small a compass : “The bondholders should beware. Slavery was as thoroughly well guarded by constitutional law and_ prescriptive right as any property. When the war ended slave property was extinct, and nobody thinks of paying for the property thus destroyed ? Yet these very ex~slave- holders are required to pay in full the face-value of Tennessee State bonds bought by the holders at forty and fifty cents.

Editoral life is not particularly condue- cive to oratory. A facility of writing, however great, does not. always presup- pose an cqual readiuess of sperch. Ready as a writer ay appear, there is always a certain degree of deliberation, a minimum amount of choice, in the sclecton of wer or phrase, which is incompatible with the off hand dash, which heedless of form, reckless of praise or blame, plunges at once into and through the subject, and comes out happy in the tiamplis of its temerity. Editors rarcly make good slump speak- ers. Fewer siill are happy on festal occa- sions. He who might dash off with a moments notice, the most spirited descrp- tion or spicy paragraph, might stammer like a very clown in the presence of an audieice. Lis thoughts, accustomed to be weighed, find halting utterance from unready tongue. This rule had few exceptions in the late editoral convention, and few made reputations as speakers. ‘There were some notable exceptions. ‘I'he President of the Association Maj. Englehard was alwaya ready, self possessed, fluent und agreeable. In the grave, the gay the graphic and the graceful, he was equally felicitous. Our young friend Skinner of the Henderson Register made his mark asa budding orator of bright promise. His voice is acceptioually fine his manuer impressive, and the substance of lis re- marks sensible, frequently eloquent. Capt. Denson of the State Agriculture Journal has also a pleasant manner and five voice, and most poetical and eloquent diction. The handsome Duffy of the Greensboro Patriot called out at Haw Rwer, next to Maj. Engelhard, is the most ex- perience speaker of the Associatiov. He is really a capital one. Dr. Pritchard, trained in another school, had advantages of the others. ‘That however cannot de-~ tract from the merits of his speeches, which were exceedingly graceful beauti- ful and eloquent, and the ‘gang’ was proud to have bim as its mouth piece. Others we might name, but we will spare their modest blushes in naming them so opeuly.—Hillsboro Recorder. 20th of May. ° The day was celebrated by many of our citizens in the following manuer: The Hook and Ladder Company went pic-nicing, the Bankers and cotton men ditto, the Hornet Steam Fire Company had a banquet at § p. m., and the Medical Convention were entertained with refresl- ments at 10 p. m. ‘Those who wanted fun had. a good opportunity on the 20th. It was not convenient for us to attend either of the entertaiaments, but we ac~ knowledge the complimentary invita- tions. The néxt 20th May (1875) is the one handredth anniversary ofthe Meckleuburg Declaration of Independence. An im- mense number of North Carolinians and others are coming here on that occasion to celebrate the day. Wereit not forthe jealous (unbecoming) feeling entertained towards Charlotte by those who really ought to act and think otherwise and feel great city, we might hope to get a small appropriation frem the public at large. to] help make the-occasion a creditable one:to North Carolina.

A | great many facts iudeed show us that cir- culation will go on without an impulse from the heart. In plants the circulation proceeds from chemical chauges without auy heart at all, without any power that pushes the li- quids forward. ln fwtal monsters in our own species there are cases in which the mouster had no heart, aud in which the communication of its circulatory system with that of the al- most half child with which it was connected, was too slight for the circulation to go ou if ve were to look upon the heart as the only organ producing circulation. Besides, in i: embroyos, in animals at a certain degree of their devolpment forin the ovuin, cireula- tion takes place while the leart is not yet formed. And we may say that instead of the heart being the cnly organ that serves | for circulation, that, on the govtrary, the heart is formed by circulation. The cireu- lation helps to giye it a form of organization, and helps to give ita function when it has accomplished its organization. T long ago made an experiment with frogs, ccnsisting in making a section of the ven- | tricle of the heart, dividing it soas to do | away with more than two-thirds of the’ length of that part. After a tite a clot is | formed there which unites the lips of the cut, | and the circulation .goes on with a part of the ventricle. which is so small indeed that | there is hardly an impulse coming froin it. There is a passage, however, for the blood there. and that is all that is necessary, that the great cause of ci'culation, which is attractiou, may be accomplished in every tissue through life. Even in our own species | it has been iny lot to see one case, that of a lady, in which the heart was almost eutirely destroyed by fatty deposition. The heart in this ease had very little action, if any, but still life persisted for sume time. In ap- pearance there was a state of health, until suddenly one day death occured. Thre is on record the case of a man who for three days had had no heating whatever of the heart and who, uevertheless. had had a circulation. He had had no pulse—the beat- ing of the pulse depending on the heart—but the blood was circulating, and life was maintained all the time. Therefore, although I woald not say certainly that the heart is a useless organ, it is certainly by far less im- portant than it was considered to be, a great deal of the work of circulation being due to the attraction that tissues exert on the blood. That attraction is increased by certain ner- ves, and thereby circulation is considerably increased, sometimes, locally to a most wonderful extent, by an irritation of the nervaussystem. In cases ofinflainmation that exists inside of the cranium, we find that the carotid artery beats with tremendous vio- lence. Sometimes we find an enormous in- crease of pulsation in the arteries of the temple. As we find-in such cases that the heart, as indicated by the pulse in the wrist, is not beating with much more force than usual, we must conclude that there is con- siderable irritation and an inflammation in the membrane of the braia or the brain it- GF self. circulation. | mouth. | 12.

World ae WHY A CHIDD LOVES SUGAR. The craviug ot children for sweets ia well known to be oue of the most imperi- ous of their appetites. It has reference probably to that ceaseless activity which characterizes the age of childhood. It may be that sugar performs in their sys tems the part cnacted by fatty substances in the bodies of adults. As it undergoes oxidation—is burned up circulating with the blood —it may be the source of the power which enables them to keep in mo- tion from moruing to night. Besides this itis known that it renders casier and more perfect the disgestion of the albumi- uous food upon which their growth des pends. In respect to these offices it is therefore, uearly essential to their well- being. And yet how strong, for genera- tions, has been the prejudice against su- gar!

There have been some wondertul cases of sleeplessness caused by undue mental exerticn. Boerhaave, the Dateh pbilos-~ opher, tells us that at one time he was so absorbed in a particular study that he did nat close his eyes.in sleep for six weeks. This seems iucredible. A French gener- al asserted that, fora whole year while engaged in active warfare, he slept but one hour in twenty-four. ‘These and similar cases are probably exaggerated. We all know how often people are unwil- ling to admit that they have been asleep, when they really had a sound nap. The persons mentioned gould not have surviv- ed such prolonged wakefulness. An ats teudaut.of the late emperor. Napoleon, whose nervous system had become de~ ranged, died simply from inability to sleep. Can a Governor be Arrested! Many books eontain the assertion that a King can do no wrong, and in England at least, for centuries the doctrine of King- iy infallibility, in a certain sense, has been received as the undoubted law of the land. But it was commonly suppos- ed when the thirteen colonics were. de- clared free and independent States, that they at least had gotten rid of the old royal dogma, and that under the theory and practice of a democratic government, the Chief Magistrate would be’ not the master and sovereign, but the servant of the people, and that instead of being above the law, he before all other citizens, would be under the law. Not 80, however, at Icast in the Caro- linas. During the Holden—Kirk— Pear- son war in North Carolina in 1870, the Governor of North Carolina with the aid of the Chief Justice, established a practi- cal supremacy over both law and conati- tution, the Chief Justice declaring in ef- fect that when process was issued from ihe courts, the power of tht Judiciary was exhausted, for the reason that there was no means to compel the Governor to res- pect it. It is true that the Governor was for his conduct at that time driven from office in shame aud disgrace, and like fate for the Chif Justice was expected. The next instance in which the claim that a Governor can do no wrong is made, occurs in our sister State south of us.— Governor Moses, of South Carolina, has been indicted by a grand jury for the crime of larceuy, and, like his bio’her Holden, contends that he is above the process of the courts, and has ordered out two companies of negro militia to protect him from the clutches of the Sheriff of Orangeburg, who hae the process for his arrest, Verily the times are ehanged when the Governor of South Carolina pleads that by virture of his office he can commit larceny without being amenable to the process of the eriminal courts. ‘I'he ques- tion at once arises will Chief Justice Mo- ses, of the Supreme Court of South Caro lina, be as complaigant to his son, Gov. Moses, in the matter of larceny as Chief Justice Pearson, of North Carolina, was to Governor Holden in the matter of con- spiracy! Neither father nor son in South Carolina need fear, we regret to say, the paina and penalties of impcachmeut.— Wilmington Star. ———___-@p>eo-——_ - — A Beautiful Virginia Lake.

[ Hickory Press. ] Aldrige has been running on the Western North Carolina Railroad for many years. He is one of those brave, noble-hearted. iron-nerved men that distinguish dnd honor [ his profession. ‘The indident we are about to relate is vouched for by a reliable geutle- man. Last. Saturday. as the Junaluskie was approching Morganton Station, Aldrige saw ghee! just beyond the Silver Creek bridge, an old grey headed man—he reeog- njzed as Clem Farr—seated on the track with his back toward the train reading a newspaper—supposing that Clem was read- ing Gov. Caldwell’s reply tu the English Barouet, in the Piedmont Press, he deter- mined not to interupt hiur tuo suddenly, aud if possible rescue him from the destruction tuat seemed imminent. So he shut off steam and jerked the whistle rope vigorously. Still the old gentleman kept on reading the newspaper as if he didn’t propose to be dis- turbed by a railroad train. Seeing that he could neither cal] Clein’s attention from the paper nor stop the train in time to preventa fatal accident instantly determined on a most perilous feat such as he had read ahout in the papers as being performed with neatness and success. He accordingly gave his hat to the fireman to hold, together with a mes- officers, and concludgd the. routine busi- sage to his mother-in-law that he died brave- nqes., Dpey passed reaofations ef thanks ly in the perfurmenee of his duty with his toghe auliorities of Burmigham and citi- | face to the front. zag for their unbounded hospitality to them and their New York guests, and also togp@rious rallrovds, aud to the Western Upion Telegrapp Company tor the free uae of their and then adjourned, theig session very harmonious.

In their treatment, a purgative, exerting a pow- erful. influence upon these various or- gans, is essentially necessary. ‘There is no cathartic for the purpose equal to Dr. J.

PRESS CONVENTION. The following are some of the more important resolutions adopted by the late Presa Convention of this State. Resolved, That the material advancement and solid prosperity of the State of North Carolina must be substantially based upon the improve- ment of its system of Agriculture, upon the development and application of its resources for manufacturing, and above all upon the en- lightenment of the people of the State through the influences of education by which alone they can become conscious of, and avail them selves of their superior advantages, Resolved, That no more ready and effective, because all pervading, means for the diffusion of information ex sts than through the instru- mentality of the Less. : Resolved, That this Convention earnestly a upon each conductor of a public journal in the State the recognition of the true mission of the presa, and that it regard the material interests of the State as embraced in its educational en- lightenment, its agricultural improvement and its industrial development as paramount to the less weighty, if more attractive consideration of artisan politics; and that the press of the State be urged to collect and disseminate all the information embraced in those subjects which may be obtained in their respective lo- calities, by which our own citizens may be in- formed and encouraged, and population from abroad be attracted into our territory. Resolved, That it is the sense of this Conven- tion that we reiterate and recommend the pre- amble and resolutions adopted by the Associ- ation at its first annual meeting in regard to inducing healthy immigration into the State of North Carolina. Resolved, That the Preas of the State be re- quested to unite in setting forth the natural ad- vantages of our soil, climate, etc., and from time to time to lav befure the public, all such infor- mation, statistics as will enable the outaide world to appreciate and understand our real resources. Resolved, That we recommend the appoint- ment of a committee to bring this matter in its proper light before our next Legislature. Resolved, That the Press of the State, as ex- pressed by this Association in Convention as- serobled, be requested to encourage and fosier the development of our resources, and that we extend our hearty co-operation either to the industrious mechanic or the capitalist who will invest his means in mechanical pursuits. Resolved, That in view of the vast importance of the early development of the rich and valn- able mineral resources of the State of North ! Carolina, it is the duty of the Press of the State | to aid in dissemminating information in regard to the same. 2 Resolved, That this Convention heartily en- dorae the sen#iments enunciated by our Presi- dent in his opening remarks on yesterday on the participation of the press in the approach- ing campaign, and that while the Convention recognizes the necessity of zeal and vigor in the conduct of the approaching eampaign, yet cour- tery and fair dealings are not iacompatible with the requisite degree of animation, and that this Convention, therefore, diseountenance the use of personalities and opprobrious Janguage, one to another. and recommend adhesion to the rules of courtesy which is the guide of gentle- men in all the relations of social intercourse. Resclved, That in one opinion, it, would be greatly conducive to the best interest of ever member for the publishers of all papers to ad- | here strietly to published rates, and this Con- vention will discountenance any editor who may deviate from the same, and that the prac- tice of some papers in this State of advertising at lees than the nsnal rates is hereby condemned. Resolved 2nd, That the custom of gratuitous advertising in the shape of local notices is det- rimental to the interests of the profession, and injurious to it? character, and that this Con- vention deprecate and diaconntenance the same. Resolved, That the members of this Aassocia- tion decline to receive through foreign adver- tiring agents all advertisements from the State ef North Carolina at less than regular rates, exclusive of commissions. ——~».— An agricultural paper ‘recommends a they have in Congress.

Many farm houses sround Bil- boa are still in flames. ‘Three bridges in Bilbao have alao been deatroyed by floods. The river is now clear, and the first steain- er that arrived since the siege was loudly cheered by a large crowd. ‘I'he Carlists left behind three spiked guns.

Proscribing Lawyers. The Rocky Mount Mail says that law- yers are proscribed, and publishes a Bat~ tleboro letter from whic following : “Mr. So-and so of Nash” has never mark- effort of praise. “Mr. So-and-so of Nash” has only voted and nothing more. Any colored representative has done the same. For instance, some citizens, of more than cause he would interpret his own lawe.” This is either sublime smplicity, or erim- inal ignorance. Our conrts are the only interpreters of laws. laws than those whose lives are devoted to their study | class. ‘I'his is norrow-minded and blind. to the humble -car. lawyers in law-making bodies, are essen-~ tial. All clases shuuld be represented. A party witbout proper exponents of its grief. It is not necessary that the ‘prop- er exponeut” should belong to any partic- ular class. ratio that they are ably advocated. they are trne, their merit then becomes know. Inthe memory of the oldest man wither her sceuffers.”’ We do not regard the lawyer as pro-~ scribed, the work of all legislatures is ex- ecnted by this claes of men, the lawyer qualify him above all other men for the part of representative. © An honest lawyer makes the beet representa- tive, a diahonest one the most. dangerous, We think the Battleboro correspondent of the Mail underrates the Nash repres- entation. Orange county had a lawyer in the firet delegation, she sent to the leg- ielature in the person of Gov. Burks ; she had one in the laet legislaiure, and she has eeldom been without one.

It will in this way be more distressing and degrading to the poor people of the country than any other class of our citi- zens.

From all that we can gather our coun- ty convention to be held hese next Sa‘- urday, will be well attended. The town. ships throughout theeonnty have gancrally held meetings and appointed delegates ; and the only objection we bave heard al. lege is, that these ‘l'ownship meetings have been very thinly attended, yet, in in same instances, the delegates have been instructed whom to vote for at the county Convention. ‘This objection may give trouble, if there is not a full and an- trammeled delegation from all parts of the county of such men as can not be carried in the interest of aay prrticular influence or clique. In order to secure harmony the utmost liberty must be allowed, every Democratic yoter and every interest. There must not be the slighest semblance of packing or anfairness. There must be no attempt to force any one upon the people for office. ‘The fact is no particular in- terest can take the bit in its mouth and triumph regardless of all others. It would be well enough for all concerned to re- member this and act accordingly. Dicta- tion in no spirit whatever will be tolerated for a moment, and itis not in the apirit of dictation that this is written, but for the purpose of securing the utmost har. mony and liberty of action, without which there had better be no convention at all.

When Does Judge Cloud’s Term of Office Expire P faithfully observed and carried ont. ber. In private circles the quest'en has been forward that we know of. Aa the time has come when the question should. be settled, that is if there be any question abant ir, this article is written for the purpose of review- ing and discussing it with a view to such settlement. Section 31st, Article IV of the Constitu- tion (Judicial Departinent) is as follows: “All vacancies occuring in the offices pro- vided for by this article of this Constitution, shall be filled by the appvintment of the Governor. unless otherwise provided for, and the appointees shall hold their places uutil the next regular election.” Now it the above section had closed with the words ‘otherwise provided for"! there could be no doubt that the appointee of the the term co which his predecessor had been elected. The word “‘vacancy,"’ used without It remains. then. to inquire what is the force and effect of the whole unexpired term. their offices until the neat regular election.” This can best be dons by coustruing tle sectiva above quoted in connection with the various other parts of the Constitution bear- ing directly or indirectly upon the question presented. In the first place it may be well to enquire what the framers of the Constitutiun meaut by the use of the words ‘first regular elec tion” in 27th section of Article II. They say: ‘The term of office of those elected at the first election held under the Constitution shall terminate at the sane thne as if they had been elected, atthe first ensuing regular election.”’ They unquestionably referred to the ‘reg- ular election” which the law provided should be held on the first Tuesday in August, 1868, but which was superceded by the special, or irregular election. held at the time the Con- s.itutiun was adopted. We quote as fol- lows : Section I, Chapter 52, Revised Code.— “The election for members to the Senate and House of Commons shall be held for the respective districts and counties at the places where they are now held, or may be directed hereatter to be held, in the manner as here- inafter prescribed. on the first Thursday in August, in the year one thousand eight han- pe and fifty-six, aud every two years there- after.” Full validity is given to this section of the the new Constitution. That this is what is meant has been decid- ed by the Supreme Court of the State in construing Section 26, Article VWI, and Sec- tion 32, Article 1V, and discharging the du- ties imposed upon said Court by said sections.

The words, “general téction,” ‘ib the one inean precisely what ‘the words “regular election,” mean ia the other. In the one the appuintees of the Governor are to hold until “the first general-election that oceurs more than thirty days after the va- cancy occurs” ; in the other they are to hold “until the next regular election.” ‘In the one it is expressity provided that successors shall be elected at the ‘“geueral election” specified ; in the other it follows, as clearly as any thing can fullow froin implication, that they are to be elected at the -‘next reg- ular election” that taay occur at a sufficient time afterwards to allow such election to be held. And if the section in relation to fil- ling vacancies in the Judicial offiees had come first in the order of precedence in the Coustitation, the grevisiun would have been express in regard to it, and implied in regard to filling the vacancies in the Fxecutive of- fices. That this is so is conclusively shown by the sections which come after itin rela- tion to filling vacancies in the offices of Jus- tices of the Peace and Clerk of the Superior Courts. Mr. Starbuck. who was elected at the time the Constitution was adupted, fo April, 1868, tesigned the office in July or August 18683, and Hun. John M. Cloud was appvinted to filthe vacancy. ..By the express terms of the Constitutjon the time for which he was appointed expires at the next “repular. elec- tion which shall be held thereafter. And from the Constitation itself we learn that such regular election will be held on “the first Thursday in Angust, in the year one thousand eight hundred and seventy’ — It, therefore, necessarily tollows, that if the pro- visions of the Caoustitution are faithfully complied with and carried out. there will be anelection fora Judge of the @th Judicial district on the first Thursday in Augast | next. It way be said that by the words ‘next regular election” is meant, in this case, the next regnlar election for a Judge of the 8th Judicial district. But this cannot be the case, inasmuch as the words are used to qual- ify what is meant by the word ‘vaeaucy,’’ which, withott any quatification, would mean the whole unexpired term, ‘but which can- uot possibly meat that with the qualification annexed. And it cannot be so for the furth- er reason that it would be in viglation. of the great fundamental principles upon bieb oe Constitation is based, and opposed tothe whole spirit of the instrument. The foun- dations of. the Constitutiou are laid upon a purely democratic basis. All the officers of the State Government, Judges included. are elective directly by the people themselves.— And of all the State offices none are so im- portant to the people of the State as the Jur dicial offices. Put the construction on Sec- tion 3), Article IV, of the Constitution, sug- gested at the commencement of this para- graph, aud it may possibly happen that a majority of the Judges will be the Govern- or’s apppointees in yivlation of this great priuciple. FOR CONGRESS. We think that it is the wish of every Conservative in this county:to see Maj. Wm. M. Robbins again nominated for Congress. His past record certainly en- titles him to-atdeast one more term. He has bravely stegd up forthe people whom he represent,s and is agentleman who rich- ly deserves honor at the handa of the Conservative party. We eay. Robbins before any one else, and should the con- vention see proper to nominate him, we believe it would give unanimons satisfac- tion among the Conservatives of our sec~ tion.—Mountain Messenger.

If in this liberal age there are persons to be of human remedies, we should Jike them to witness the worlerfal eTects which [Losvetter’s Stomich Bitters are now prodacing all over the country in cases of iatermittent fever rhau- complaint, constitutional debility, mental de- pression and premature decay. To be sure these elfects are nothing new. 3 table invigorant and its cures have been before the people for more than twenty-five years, and in every year of the twenty-fve its popularity has increased and its sale has become larger. Yet there are no doubt many thousands of in- telligent citizens who have never had an op- portunity of observing for themselves the sur- prising changes which this unequalled tonic and alterative produces in systems which seem to be hopelessly broken, and in cases of disease which are not amenable to ordinary remedies. Probably many of these regard the statements made in relation to the sanitary properties of the Bitters with some degree of incredulity. Would that all such skeptics could see witi their own eves what the medicine is doing for the sick aud feeble everywhere, what a staff of life it is proving to the aged and infirm, what a help.in time of trouble to feeble women sufi ering from the complaints and disabilities pe- caliar to tte sex, what a protection to health and life if malarious districts, what a panacea for languor an:l depression, what a specific for all diseases in which the system requires to be vitalized and sustained. Of all stimulants it is the purest and safest, of all tonics the most genial, effective and agreeable, of all alteratives the least violent and the most certain in its beneficial results. , The great vege- NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.

We certainly intended no reflection on Mr. Haughton; buat we felt sure he wag laboring under a misap- prehension as to his duty in the matter re- | ferred to, He quotes the law to show that he is right, and we quote it again to show that he is wrong. ‘The law bearing on the subject is clear and unmistakable we think. Here it is: Section 12, of the original charter, refer- riug to the accounts tv be kept by the Town Treasurer, receipts and disbursements of all the public funds, says: ‘The Commission- ers shall cause a copy of sail account fur the year preceding every first day of December to BE MADE BY THEIR CLERK and posted in the Cuourt-house in said town for twenty days next previous to the first day of January in each aud every year; and for the breach of their respective duties assigned them in this section, the said commissioners, clerk and town treasurer ghall be liable to indictment.” This section sets forth the daties of the town tieasurer, with respect to the moneys received by him and_ paid out on the order of the town clerk. The comuiissioners then are required to cause p an treasurer, to furnish aud: gign -Alie posted at the Couz!-house. . Bat this was merely a “clerical error’ and is really ‘of but little importance if the law does say to the contrary and impose a penalty for neglect or disobedience. Mr. Haughton says it has been cus- tomary, beretofore, to publish thie matter 11 @ newspaper; but declines to furnish | us with a report, because he “has io au- thority todo so. Here he is again in er- ror. ‘There is no power now to prevent him if he chooses to do it. The only Board that had any control of the matter is functus officio—out of power. ‘The law makes it obligatory upon each Board to mike its owa report; consequently, no ns Board can have any coutrel of it. Mr. Haughton is also mistaken when he says the law has been complied with; for it certainly has not, as to time. ‘Chef Charter saya, (and it hae not been chang- ed although there is a statute changing the time of election,) ‘‘said report shall be inade out in every December, aud postcd for twenty days next previous to the first day of Jaouary in each and every year.” Grant that the law chapging the time for holding the election also clanges the charter, still the report was uct made out spirit of the law at least, ia to this effect : The report aball be made out and posied or published for 20 days previous to each annual election. Mr. Haughton is a gentleman of too much intelligence to deuy that the above is a fuir aud reasonable statement of the facts, if he will but take the time to exam ine the matter. We knew that Mr. Haughton was pot the Board, any more than is the Intend- ant, notwithstanding the senseleas twad- dle of such as merely wish to bo noticed; but he is, nevertheless, reaponeible to the public for his actions, as clerk, and expecially in the matter here dizcussed. (cer effort is making to have the schedule on the mail We understand that an route running from here to mooresville, changed. We hope, however, the our Post Master and the department will not consent toit. It snits all this section of jthe conutry best to ran itas it was let out; that is, start from this poiut on Fri- day mornings. The people in that section who take papers from this point or east, will be discommoded by a change. BISHOP LYMAN’S SUMMER VIS1- TATIONS. Ist Sun. aft. Trinity.

There- pon the thinking men of the South at once warned the Republican Party that ixed schools means social equality and | degradation of the poor white man to miscegenationisin ; that our pride of race would not permit us to acquiesce in such abinfumy; and that if the Bill became 8 law of the land the common schools ofthe South would cease and remain closed, forever! They said that their wh‘te children and negro children should never intermingle as equals, and that this land of the white man should never be converted into a country of mulattoes and balf breeds. As e00n as this determina tion on the part of the South was announ- ced, up rose Mr. Stev.art in Congress, and proposed an amendment to our con- stitution to the effect tbat if any State should not make proper provision for mixed chools under this Civil Rights Bill, then the United States Government should make the necessary provision and estab- lish and maintain common schools for white and blacks alike throughout sach State, and force the State to pay the ex- nses of the same! See then where these Republicans are guing; not only do fliey propose to force on the poor white children of North Carolina the degrada- tiaw_4f negro equality, but they propose to destroy the last right of our people to govern themzeives, and make us submit to be governed in our local concerns by Forsooth the New Enugland Republicans declare the people of New England. in this matter, that our tastes, our views our prejadices, are not to be consulted but we must bow down before them and accept their decrees as to onr local affairs Tell us about despo tism and about tyran- ny; and we will point forever to this pro- posed action on the part of the Republi- ean Party as a yet greater tyranny and still more terrifie despotiam than aught which gan be found in the pages of His- tary.— Crescent. . ee Shi Derk.

The old man sat by the cottage fire And he watched his children play ; And a tear stole duwn his check, . Bat he wiped it not away ; For his thoughts had wandered back again To the scene of other vearr, And his spirit had found a glad relief In the falling of his tears. Again he played on the dear old hearth, And he heard a mother’s voice, And the gentle tones fell on his ears And they made his heart rejoice ; Again he joined in the blind man’s buff, And the game of hide and seek, And heard hig-little sister's voice, SoGentle, soft and meek.

It is all dew spatkle and morning glory to her ardent, buoyant spirit, as she presses for- ward exulting in blisefull anticipations. But the withering heat of the counfllict of life creeps on; the dew-drops exhale ; the garlands of hope, scattered gnd dead, strew the path ; and too often, ere noon-] tide, the brow and sweet smile are ex- changed for weary look of one longing for the evening rest, and twilight, the bight. — — ~EBo Rospgpep or HatF Her Giory.—A pretty young woman of Louisville named Pauline zinsky, noted for the beauty of her hair, which had reached the unusual length of 5 fect, a few nights ago was awakened about 2 o’clock in the morning, experiencing a gensation as if some one was combing her hair, which was lvose about her shoulders. As she awoke she saw two men leave the room. When conscious- ness returned she aroused the family. Her mother on entering smelt chloroform, and found that her daughter’s hair had been cut from the right side of her head, that on the left side being neatly combed. i What alcohol will do.—It may seem strange, but it is nevertheless true, that aleohol regularly applied to a thrifty fars mer’s stomach, will remove the boards from the tence, let cattle into the crops, kill his fruit trees, mortgage his farm, and sow his fields with wild oates, and thist les. It will take the paint off his building, break the glares out of the windows and fill them with rage. It will take the gloss from his clothes and the polish from his manrers, eubdue his reason, aronae his passons, bring sorrow and disgrace upon his trinily, and topple him into a drunkard’s grave. It will do this to the artisan and the capitalist, the matron and the maiden, as well as to the farmer; for in its deadly entity to the human race, alcohol is no respecter of persons. —_——_ +> Alfalia:—Mr. John Cunningham show- ed ua, yesterday, a bunch of this very prolific clover that he bad taken from his grounds only two.years old and had a root four feet nine inches long.

Since Abraham Lincoln is the great exemplar of Republicanism, and Douglas of Northern Democratic states- manship, we reproduce what both these men were accustomed to aay : I hold ghat this government was made on the white basis, by white men, for the benefit of white men, and none others. I do not believe that the Almighty made the negro capable of self-government.— Stephen A. Douglas. ; 1 am not, nor never have been, in favor of making voters or jurors of negroes, nor iutermarrying them with white people ; and I will say iu addition to this, that there 18 a physieal difference between the white awd black races, which I believe, will forever forbid the two racea living together4on terms of gocial and political equality ; and, inasmuch as they do remain together, there must be a posi- tion of superior and inferior, and I, as mach as any other man, am in favor of having this superior position aasigned to he white race.—Abraham Lincoln. A Word for Newspapers. Wo clip the following articles from an exchange. It is true, and we recommend it to eyery man who bas an interest where he resides : “Nothing is more common than to hear people talk of what they pay newspapers ttor advertiaing, etc., as so much given in charity. Newepapers, by enchancing the value of property in their neighborhoods, given the localities in which they are pub- lished a reputation abroad, benefit all such particularly,if they are merchants or real estate owners, thrice the amount year- ly of the meagre sum they pay for their support. Besides, every public spirited citizen has a Jaudable pride in having a paper which he is not ashamed of even though he should pick it yp in New York or Washington. A good looking, thriving sheet, helps to sell property, gives char- acter to the locality, in all respects isa desirable ‘public eonvenience. If, from cause, the matter in the local or editoral columns sheald not.be guite ¢p to your standard, do nét east it aside and pro- nounce it of no account, until you are sat- isfied that there bas been no more Jabor bestowed upon it that is paid for. If you want a good, readable sheet, it must be supported, And it mast not be supported in a spirit of charaity either, bat use you feel a necessity to support it.—The local pregs is the power Ghat moves the erase which are more thin and tender. Never sit a thin shellegg. As regards- keeping eggs to sit, I will just say any old wos man knows a hen turns her eggs every time she goes to her nest. Thus, for years I turn the eggs designed for sitting once every day, to ehange the position.— I keep from 75 to 150 pullets. _‘I select daily all the smooth evenly shaped eggs, keepiug them in an airy place, never cover- ing them, and never keeping them in a room where there is a fire, unless in freez- ing weather. ‘I'here is no safety in sit- \ting eggs in cold weather; one hour's freezing settles an egg. (‘I'hne one pa- per says the old hen comc Ju with one chickea this spring.) In following those rules you may save all the eggs that will not hatch for table ure. I make it a rule to sit the eggs laid the days [ sit them ; and one hen in good weather will batch 18 or 21 chickens at a sitting, and not lose a single egg if thus selected. After they hatch I keep the hens in a coup a tew days before I turn them out to scratch for the young; and never let them go where they can get rain water or hog slop to drink. ‘That is the cause of gaps in poultry It is a worm that breeds in standing water, low slop, &e. ‘The ouly cure I ever fouud, was to open the chicken’s bill draw its tougue under the thumb and put three or four drops of Leef foot oil into the wind pipe, ‘lobacco stems laid in the roosting place helps them to throw the worms out of the wind pipe while sneez- ing.

In the last issue of our Fireside Friend, published at Chicago, we find a letter from Mr. H.C. King, one of its travelling correspondents, from which we copy the subjoined eloquent and manly tribate to the South. The letter from which we copy bears date, “New Orpeans, May 1, 1874. “You wish me to tell you “how I like the South?’ Do I like the ‘Eden’ of America? No! I love it, with a love so strong, and so deep, that had J the pow er I would pluck from her lacerated body every thorn of whatever kind; 1 would beal every wound however deep, and make her, if not the paradise of the world, ccr- tainly the paradise of North America, which nature designed her to be.—I— would unite ber with the North, the East and with the Weat, in the closest frater- nal bonds, for thus the prosperity and happiness of the whole land would be promoted. ‘The South is # land especially blessed by the-hand of God.

The speaker was a tall an in his sbirt sleeves and a sloached aud he stood holding in his stron han@? a-rope attached to the horns of & anted:juvenile steer, that with its eon- iN@iitile . companimi, looked as if srope were sgperfluus, fornshere was thing more foreign to their thoaghte or a running away. The little wagon to which the attenuated ,eattle were bitehed, groaned in its oilless jin under pine sticks of: green wood, eplit because. too thin. The wood ike English bop poles, and the 1 who vowed the times were bard of red rag. We did not wait to hear more of the stale platitnde but went on ; the sight of such steams, such loads, such men and such statements have become too common to excite comment. Late iu the afternoon we saw the team again, going home through the mud, rain and iucreasing darkness. ‘The driver lay on the two planks that formed the wagon bed. We do not know what the jug contamed, but whatever it Was the mau had given all the contents he could, an inside pasgage. ‘The little steers bad visibly shrunken siuce morning, looking, poor things, as if they were gradually washing away aod longing fur the job to be over. ‘The man was nota typeof the yeomanry of this land. Unfortunately, it has no class corresponding to the yeoman. He was a poor, ignorant white man, witha wife and a large family, no doubt, and he lives in a wretched, one-roomed cabin, on a piece of water-washed land, unknown and uncared for. with no impulse and no aid to raise to a nobler life. “Hard times ?” Who are making them ?’" The poor wife with her little ones: huddled about her last night, knew what brought ‘hard times’’ to her wretched abode, when-the famished brutes stopped, with hanging tongues, in the darkuees, and she heard the oaths of the greater brute, as he stag- gered iu with the little glazed jug in his hand. ; - “Tard times !"’ says the man that nevs er did a stroke of earnest, honest work to make them better. ‘Hard times !” says the young man, too proud to labor with the white hands which he folds as he waits for chance to give him an easy job. “Hard times!" says the planter, as he begs the merchant to give him time for food he needs, and paying 100 or 50 per cent. for his advances, he .goes back over barbarous roads to an uncomfortable home to bet big remaining time on that game of chanee—cotton. ‘Hard times!" cries the merchant, as notes fall due, and not one dollar for the thousands owing him, comes in to meet them. Yes, the times are hard, and the cause lies at our own door. QOur merchants are the slaver of New York, and our farmers the vassals of the merchants. ‘here is too little of earnest, manly effort, too many of heaven's blessings Lo incite to persistent labor. Six mouths from now will tcll the story, and the farmer who from neglect, is forced then to buy his food, deserves all the hard times it will, be poesible to inflict.— Columbus [Ga] Enquirer. A Terrible Romance. In the year 1766, a young girl of very preposing appearance, from one of the io- terior provinces of France, was ‘placed at Paris in the services of a man depraved’ by all the vices of that corrupt metropo-~ lis. Suittea with her charms, he attempt- ed her ruin, but was unsuccessfal. — In- censed at his defat, he determined on revenge, and, in furtherance ofthis design accretly placed in her trank articles be longing to him, and marked with his name. He then denounced her to a magistrate, who caused her to be arrested, and the missing articles being found in her pos- sesion, she was brought to trial. In ber defense she could only assert ler ignor- ance of the manner iu which the property came into her trunk, and protested her in- nocence. She was found guilty, and the sentence of death was pronounced upon her. ‘Tbe hangman's office was incfhei- ently performed, it being the first attempt of the executioner’s son. ‘he body was dekvered into the hands of a surgeon, by whom it had been purchased. He imme- diately conveyed it home, and was pro- ceeding to dissect it, when he perceived a slight warroth about the heart. By the prompt use ef proper remedies he restor- ed the suspended animation. In the meantime he sent for a truswor:hy priest, and when the unfortunate girl opened her eyes she suppoeed herself in another world, and addressing the pricat (wbo was a man of marked and majcetic counten- ance), exclaimed: ‘(Eternal Father! you know my innocence; lave pity on me!” In her simplicity, belicviag she beheld her Maker, she continued to sue for mer- cy, and it was some time before she reali. zed she was still in the land of the living. The surgeon and priest, being fully cons vinced of her innocence, she retired to a village far distant from the scene of her anjast punishment. ‘Che community sub- sequently became acquainted with her history, and the author of her misery be~ came an object of reproach and contempt, though it does not appear that any at- tempt was made to bring him to jaatice. eRe Yet Plato is a Democrat, true and tried, Plate ia for Grant, and was for John Pool for the United States Senate, yet, Plato is a democrat.

[From the Chicago Tribune. }§ There are many evidences that the re- mains of the past differences between the North and the,Soath are passing away, and that a feeling of real brotherhood is growing up between the two sections of the country. ‘The war of the rebellion is not destined to leave a lasting echo of strife iu the hearts of the people of this country. ‘Time, the great teacher and the great healer, is slowly but certainly effac- ing the scars of war from the face of na- ture and from the hearts of men. * * The ladies of Chicago did not forget the Confederates buried in our cemeteries.— There were flowers and evergreens and services for them as well as for their ene- mies in life. In Calvary Cemetery. where only one rebel slecps, his grave was re- membered. At Springfield Mafor Bluford Wilson, who delivered the oration of the day at Camp Butler, said that the time had come when enmitics and hates should be buried, and that the living should pay a tribute to the Confederate as well as to the Federal dead. His recommendation was not unheeded. At Rock Island, in this State, the touching eight was witness- ed of surviving Federals placing garlands on the graves of Confederates who died in the military prison. At Cairo the di- vine character of forgivncss was the theme of Governor Beveridge’s oration. At Pittsburgh the unmarked rebel graves were scattered over with flowers by thie same fafr hands that decked those of the Union soldiers. In Alleghany the eame | was witnessed. At Keokuk the gravee of the seven rebels buried in the National Cemetery received the same altention as the Federaf dead. Considering the attitude of the eountry towards the so-eatled civil rights bill in connection with this other feeling towards the Confederate dead, we may bope that the day of reconciliation between North aud South, which must precede the re- cuperation of the latter section, is near at hand. 4 —_——->-o—___—__- [From the Charleston (S.

Implicit confidence in his brother, who wasa mid- dle-aged bacbelor of limited means had of course, inspired the dying man te make such a will; but a number of family rela~ a» tives pronounced the document aa extra- , ordinary piece of servile fatuity, aud dark: ly hinted that harm would ensue from it. ‘lhis feeling caused au alienation bet weeu the occupants of the Epping Forest resi=. » dence and the aforesaid prophets, aud J made the latter the bitterest prosecators of the dead man’s brother in i strenge . and tragic succeeding events, which huve | been described as follows : Unele and niece were both seen one day walking together in the forest, bus the young lady suddenly disappeared, and the uncle declared that he had sought her as soon as he liad missed her, and knew not whither ehe had gone or what had become of her. This account was cous sidercd improbable, and appearances bee ing cleatly suspicious, he was arrested and taken before a magistrate. Other circumstances, hourly coming to light, rendered his position serious, A young gentleman in the neighborhood had beeu paying his addresses to Miss Perkins. It was stated, and generally believed, that he bad gone, a few days before she wes... missed, on ajeurney to the North, and that she had declared that she would mar- ry him on his return. The uncle had re- ‘ peatedly expressed his disapprobation of the match, and Miss Perkins had loudly reproached him with his unkindness and- abuse of his authority over her as dis ward. A woman named Margaret Oakes was produced, who ewore that about MW o'clock en the day on which Miss Perlxs ins was missed she was passing through: the forest and heard the voice of « young lady earnectly expostulating with a gentle- man. On drawing nearer the spot whepee the sound came, Margaret Oaks teatified that she heard the Ete exclaim: “Doa't kill me, uncle, don’t kill me!” The wo- man was greatly terrified, and ran away from the spot. As she was doing eo she heard the report of firearms. On this combination of circumstantial and positive evidence, coupled with the suspicion of interest, the uncle was tried, eonvicted of murder, and almost-immediately after- waids—according to the customs ef these days—was hanged. About ten days after the execution of the sentence upon the uncle, the niees reappeared, and, stranger ati!l, showed the history she related, that all the teaté. mony given on the trial was.strictly true. Miss Perkins said that, having resolwed to elope with hér lover, they had gives out he had gone on a journey to the North, whereas he had merely waited near the gkirta of the forest until the time ap- pointed for the e'’opement, which wae yery day on which she had disappeared. Her lover had korees ready saddted for them both, and two servants in atten- dance on horseback. While walking. with her uncle, he reproached her with ber resolution to marry a man of whom he disapproved, and after some remonsiran- ces, she passionately exclaimed : “T have set my heart upoo him. If { don’t marry him it will be death to me; and don’t kill me, uncle, don't kill me4” Just as she proclaimed those words she heard a gun flred, at which she started, and she afterwards saw a man come from among the treee with a wood-pigeon it his band, which he had shot. On ap proaching the spot appointed for a meets ing with her lover, she formed a pretence to induce her uucle to go on before. her. She then fled to the arms of her lover, who had been waiting for her, and they bo‘h mounted their horacs and immedi- ately rode off. Instead, however, of go- ing to the North, they retired to Windsor, and about a weck altcrwards went on a tour of pleasure to France. ‘There they . passed some monthe so happily that ia thuse days, when newspapers were scarce, when there was no regular poatal comma- nication and no telégraphs, they never heard of their uncle's sad fate autil their return to England. ——_ TROUBLE IN ‘THE CAMP.

If we have done Mr. Schenek any injustice we are very sorry of it; and shall be most happy to set him right if our friend will show os wherein we have misrepresented him. Taking onr re- cent article in eonneetion with Mr. Scbenck’s testiinony befyre the Ku Klux commiteee at Washington, we are unable to see where we have been guilty of wrong. Yet, if Mr. Schenck or his friends, after carefully com- pairing our article with said testimony, will show that we bave done Mr. Schenck injus- tice, it shall be repaired. Our correspondent should not suppose that we are indifferent about who is elected in his Di-triect. be-ause we criticised the action of the Democratic Conventiun in nominating Mr. Schenck. If Mr. Schenck was a thou- sand fuld worse than his bitterest enemies would represent him. ne would still be infinite- ly preferable to Judge Logan. Mr. Schenck, with all his eccentricities, is still a gentle- man of enlture, legal ability, and if elected, will do honor tothe beneh. As to Judge Logan, we can not conceive of any one more utterly unfit for such a pesition. Aside from the disgusting character of his polities. he is fo every imaginable particular deplorably unfit for the position of Judge, To elect him Judge would bea calamity upon the people of his District most fearful. Sinee Mr. Schenck has received the nomination of the Democratic party. and the Radical party has nothing better to offer than the stupid Judge Logau and the Civil Rights abomina- tion, every man who has a spark of decency in his boson should turn his back upon the Radical party and vote for Mr. Schenck.— ‘Turn away also from Independents, for this is necessary now, in order to get as far as pos- sible froin civil rights, social negro equali- ty, miscegenation, amalgamation, mexicani- zation, und other Radica) abominations gen- erally, ep OUR :TATE SENATOR. Davie-county has expressed a_prefer- ence for Capt Chas Price, and Rowan has through her Convention expressed a de- cided preference for Capt. W H Craw- ford. This looks a little like clashing ; but it seems that it all arises from a mis apprehension of the merits of the ease. If we are not misinformed, Davie claims the right to suggest the Senator on theground that Rowan had him for two terms pre~- ceeding the election of Capt Price. ‘This, however, can certainly give her no legiti- mate claim, since Rowan according to population and voters, is entitled to the Senator twice to Davie’s once. But even if this claim was valid, it should be re- membered that 4 years ago Davie suggest ed the Senator, and, although he was tak- en from our county, the facet would weigh againet her own ruli :z. Without desiring 1o discourage Capt- Price, we will say that the people are bent on having new men ia the Legislatare.— Whether this is a wise purpose of theirs is not the question. ‘The fict is, sufficieut- ly evident. ‘They are making eelections of new men in nearly all the countice ; and it is not to be presumed that Rowan will pass over such geutlemen as Dr. Luckey aud Kerr Craige, and vute for Capt Price. True, it is not because of any shortcoming on the part of these: gentle- men, for they are acknowledged to have made good representatives, it is owing to a desire for a change merely, and this de- sire will prevent Rowan from voting for any one who wae in the last Legislature. We can not anticipate the action of the Convention ww assemble at Foard’s Mills. but we think if the action of the two con- ventions is to be respected, counting by Cownships, Capt Crawford has already gotten the nomination. DENISTRY. Until rceently, the treatment of the diseases of the teeth, appear to have been less a proper speciality of medicine, than a mere mechanical craft, requiring in the operator little more than mauual dexterity and physical force. Surgeons and physicians were, gener- ally speaking, profoundly ignorant of the importance of the orgnus to geacral health, and were contented te eurrender them to the care of any who were willing to take charge of them. eases are ecldom mentioned in medical schools, and emiuent profesgors of Surgery, have publicly confessed themselves incom- petent of teaching their students how to extract teeth. In the course of time, how- ever, men of inquiring minds, and studis oas habits, fiuding themeelyes in the | practice of a rude and imperfeet art, the deficiencies of whieh, were continually forced upon their observation, have been constrained to investigate the relations of the feeth to surrounding and distinet parts. Well read medical men, waiving the general practice of the profession, have turned their attention to dentistry, and of necessity have applied their previous in- formation to the augmentativa of Dental Pathology and Therapeutics ; and Snadiy,’ the management of the texth has come to charitable and reasunable in our lives, We. wey Iven, now, dental dis- |’ aye art.

Charles Harris was. one of a large family, aud was early engaged on his own account, in forming his own character. ‘This necessity developed, of course, in a person of his peculiar temper- ament, in a prominent degree, the pecu- liarities of his own individuality. These were independence, self. reliance, persever- ing industry, strict probity and a supreme devotion to his love ef mechanical inven- tion and practical skillfuluess therein. The result was, early in lif-, he earned an ample competency of this world’s goods and this obtained, he devoted sedulously and without thought or reward, the bal- lance of his life to the indulgence and gratification of his great talents for unri- valled skillfulness in practical mechanism. Without the stimulus of necessity for daily practice, he probably had no supe riur ag the were man?pulator of tools, and he was constantly adding, by way of et~ periment, to the improvements of the day. In easy circumstances a good manager, an.excellent neighbor and eitizen, he thus spent among us a long and laborious life, leaving behind him many friends to meurn very doubtful if there ig a single possible disease in which the patient should not have cold water ud libitum.

Her beauty of transcendent ex- cellence. Bright, flashing, intellectual eyes, and face round and rosy, while her calico dress was plain and neatly made, and fitted beau- tifully. Her rich black hair flowed in luxur- iant richness. Highly educated, she conversed fluently, and deported herself with becoming modesty. She wore’ no false bustle or pur- chased complexion; had no top-knot on her head, or false fixings to present, but stood in the majestic beauty of a created intel:igence that would not yield to the despotic dictates of frivo- ldus fashion. It has been along time since we gaz- upoa such a sight. The young men crowded around her wagon with curiosity in their eyes agd admiration in their hearts.

Lowpon, May 1—Occassionally one finds treasure in a Blue Book, just as one occasion- ally finds diamond in the straw at the bottom ofa cab or £10 note in the dust bin. Here, for example, is a Blue Book just published, containing the reports of the inspectors of fat- tories for the last year. Parts of sober and official foluin h4ve all the interest of sensa- tional romance—yes, nore than that, since, its statements are not only founded on fact but are fact. "Une of the inpsectors goes to examine the brickmakers, and he finds them to be—a must semi-civilized, ignorant set. Men and-boys Jook like red Indians ; the sand used in brick making being burnt red their bodies are covered with it; they work bareheaded, barefooted, with exposed breasts and with wild looks, drinking, all day Sunday ; Monday and Tuesday dog fighting and man fighting. They resdmeé work on Wednesdays, when the poor little unfortunates (that is the children of the sexes, who ure made to do the hardest part of thedabor), are made to toil away, stamping and earrying, and pressing a good fortnight’s work in three or four days, One man who last week earned in four days twenty-eight shillings s 60 in gold), took his wife home a loaf of read and gix pence. The rest of the money had been spent in beerand dog-fighting. The law is now that children under twelve must not be employed at work; but in the back country and other places this provision is con- tinaally violated. One man who earned by his own work $600 a year, made his son of twelve years work all night—every night from 6 p.m.to G a.m. During the day the boy had to go to school, and out of the twenty-four hoags he had only seven fur meals and sleep. Bat all this, bad as it 1s, is nothing compared with goes on in the salt works of Droit-. wich: cre the custom is fur men and wo- men to wark together through the night; and as the hegt of the works is great and the eva- poration of salt spoils clothing, the men and women strip off their clothing and work togeth- er all night lung with no covering above the waist, and none below save a single petticoat or a pair of trowsers. The scenes enacted at these works are horrible beyond description and chastity, morality and decency among. the workers are words destitute of meaning. * ___- me From the Knoxville Preas and Herald. A Righteous Decision. The Seuthern Methodist Decreed Possess ton of their Church Property. The following particulars from a cor- respende.t, concerning the recent church suit ia greeneville, will prove interest- ing: ‘The Methodist Chureh in Greeneville, whorth about $4,000, was sold for debt in 185%. Mose of the debt was paid off within two years from day of sale. © ‘The uretiaser, a member of the Methodist Prprecopal Church, South, extended the right of redemption, and received two ayments after the two years from sale ad expired, receiving the last payment iu March, 1860. About $80 remuaiiel unpaid. 1n1866, the purchascr having left the Southern and joined the Northern Charch, took a sheriffs deed for the prop- erty on thé same day, for the remainder cf his debt, with interest, amounting to about $108, deeded it to the trustees for the Northern Chareh, some of these trus- teeg being a part of the board of trustees that held the property for the Southern Chureh. All the trustees of the Southera Chareh have gone tothe Northern Charch bat twe, one of whom, being a minister, brutally whipped just after the war, dur ing the‘feign of terror in Green county. ln November, 1871, suit was instituted by the Soutbern Church, praying the Chancellor to permit them to pay one hundred and eight dollars, and to restore to them their property. ‘he case was tried before Chancellor Sinith last week, the trial ocenpying two days. Jadge R. M, Bartor and E. C. Reeves represen- ted the complainants, and R. M. McKee and) W4 H. Ingersell appeared for the resjovdents. ‘Ihe fight on both sides was very determined. On Saturday morning the case waa decided in favor of the complainants, the Chancellor restor- ing to them thelr property, with rents from date of filing their bill. The respon. dents prayed an appeal to the Supreme Court. SOMETHING ON HIS BRAIN. When the moiety bill was ap Gon. Leach said Ré“thoaght Beck bad something on the brain when the Kentuckian stood up and eaid: ‘ ‘Phe custon honse have become dene of corfuption, and are kept up on aceount of thely political power to control primary elections, pack conventions, stuff ballot boxes aud perpetuate frauds such as ought to be fifossible in any free country. ‘The Collector of New York has a salary of $6,000, the Naval Officer $5,000, and the Survey@r has 4.500, and yet during this administfation the Surveyor has received for hia sliare of penalties $159,000, the Naval. er $162,000 the collector $174 000, andthe informer $491,000, making a total of $987,000 that has been paid to informers and officials, and wliy!) Was it becaueé’there was so much duties with- held from the Government? No. In the PhelpayDodge case $271,000 was paid = kee gaa waa only $1,600 dune to the Government. The system is keptup so that the money stolen from the merchants can be used for the worst purposes by the worst men.” ‘Sap Destg.—The painful duty de- valves upon us of Announcing the death in this city yesterday aftesuoon of Miss) Annie, daughter of Gen Rufus Barringer She had been attending echool at Staauten Va, and being prostratcd by illness, re- turned home several days ago. Miss Barringer was aged about 19 years. - There is something ivexpressible sad about the death of one so young—one just stepping upon the threshold of wo- manhood. We prefer to leave the subject, extending at the same tinfe our most heartfelt sympathy to the afficted family. — Observer. The passage by the House of Repre- sentatives at Washington of the McCrary bill “to regulate commerce by railroad between the States,’ is an assertion of National control over inter State lines, and oes a Iong step farther than any antece- a declaration of the right to legislate in such matters. Tbe very fact of the railroads obtaining their charters from different States, and being State command in certain respects as the proper tribunals show the opinion of the former generation of statesmen. Centralization is now the order of the day, and if this bill of Mr McCrary should become law, one of the widest doors will be open to official bri- bery and corruption that Washington bas yet been cursed with. A paternal govern- ment will have its favorite children, and one part of the country will be fostered at the expense of other parts.— Bullimore Guectle. From the New York Tribtine. Connecticut’? Revolt. A Period of Democratic Ascen- dency Predicted. There has not been a time within twenty years, till the present, that Win W. Eaton bad the slightest chance to at tain what has notoriously been the meas: ure of his ambition, 23 eat In the Senate of the United States. ‘That he bas at last attained it, and that Connecticut lis de- liberately turned that way from the men who have had her contidence of twenty years, to lift to her highest representative position the man she had feared and hat- ed most, and whose political opinions she has repeatedly repudiated and disowned, ig an event of peculiar significance. Who ever should bave said two years ago, when the Republicans, strong in thier majority quallled and split into fictions over the election of Senator, that Win. W. Eaton would have been compassioned as a luna tic auch a prediction a few months later, when the State was carried overwhelin- ingly for Grant would have been wilder still. In the same apirit in which Conserva- tive Connecticut swung over from Bueha nan’s administration to) Francis Gillette in 1854, she has swung from Grant's ad- mistration to William W. Eaton in 1874. The people are tired of platforms and pro testations. They have begun a revolt. Does the party in power understand the situation ? As for Mr. Eaton, with all his faults, and they are such as may scriously im. pair his influence, he has distinguishing virtues that may make him a_ very useful representative. ‘The lesson of 1854 to to his own party, and the lesson of his twenty years’ experience since then, are not more to his profit by than those of the last two years, which seem ape- cially directed to his opponents. If his- tory does not repeat itself, Mr. Eaton's election opens a period of Democratic as cendancy, just as: Francis Gillette's led the way to twenty years of Republican ule in the State. “JAS.

They are the great blood purifier and a life-giving principle, a perfect Renovator and Invigorator _of the system. Never before in the history of the world has a medicine been compounded porseasing the remarkable qualities of Vixxear Birrees in healing the sick of every disease yan ia heir to. are a gentle Purgative as well as a Tonic, relieving Congestion or Infammation of the Liver ane Visceral Organs in Bilious Diseases The properties of Dr. WaLker’s VINEGAR LITTERS are A perient, vig ee Carminative, Nutritious, Laxative, Diuretic, Sedative. Counter-Irritant Sudorific, Altera- tive, and Anti-Bilious. Grateful ‘: housands proclaim ViN- EGAR BIttERs the most wonderful In- vigorant that ever sustained the sinking system. No Person can take these Bitters according to directions, and’ remain long unwell, provided their bones are not de- strored by mineral poison or other beans, and vital organs wasted beyond repair. Bilious, Remittent and Inter- mittent Fevers, which aré so preva- lent in the valleys of our great rivers throughout the United States, especially those of fhe Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri, Ilurois, Tennessee, Cumberland, Arkan- gas, Red, Colorado, Brazos, Rio Grande, Pearl, Alabama, Mobile, Savannah, Ro- anoke, James, and many others, with their vast tributaries, throughout our entire country during the Summer and Autumn, and remarkably so during sea- sons of unusual heat and dryness, are invariably accompanied by extensive de- rangements of the stomach and liver, and other abdominal viscera. In their treatment, 4 purgative, exerting a pow- erful influence upon these various or- fans, is essentially necessary. There: 4 is no cathartic for the purpose equal to Dr. J. WauKern’s VINEGAR Brirrens, as they will speedily remove the dark - colored viscid nyatter with which the bowels are loaded, at the samo time stimulating the secretions of the liver, and generally restoring the healthy functions of the digestive organs. Vortify the body against disease by porifving all its fluids with VINEGAR Brevens. No epidemic ean tako hold ofa system thus fore-nrmed. Dyspepsia or Lndigestion, Uead- ache, Pain in the Shoulders, Coughs, Tightness of the Chest, Dizziness, Sour ‘Eructations of the Stomach. Bad ‘Taste inthe Mouth, Bilious Attacks, Palpita- tation of the Heart, Inflanunation of the Lungs, Pain iv the region of the Kid neys, anda hundred other painful symp- toms, are the offsprings of Dyspepsia. One bottle will prove a better guarantes of its merits than a Jengthy advertise- ment. Scrofula, or King's Evil, White Swellings, Ulcers, Erysipelas, Swelicd Neck, Goitre, Serofulous Tuflammations, Indolent Inflannmnations, Mereurial Affections, Old Sores, Eruptions of the Skin, Sere Eyes, ete. In these, as in all other constitutional Dis- exsex, Wabker's Visepar Birrers havo shown their great curative powers in the most obstinate and intractable cases. For Inflammatory and Chronic Rheumatism, Gout, Bilious, Remit- tent and Intermittent Fevers, Diseases of the Blood, Liver, Kidneys and Bladder, these Bitters have no equal. Such Diseases are caused by Vitiated Islood. Mechanical Diseases.— Persons en- gaged in Paints and Minerals, such as Plumbers, Type-scttors, Gold-beaters, and Miners, as they advance in life, are subject to paralrsis of the Powells. To guard against tia, tako a dose of WALKER's VIN- EGAR Birrers occasionally. ~ ForSkin Diseases, Eruptions, Tet- ter, Salt-Rheum, Blotche:, Spets, Pimples, Pustules, Boils, Carbuneles, Ring-worme, Scald-head, Sore Eves, Erysipelas, Iteb, Scurfs, Discolorations of the Skin, HWumors and Disedse:s of the Skin of whatever name of nature, are literally dug up and carried out of the system iv a short time by the uso of these Bitters. Pin, Tape, and other Worms, lurking in the system of so many thousands, are effuctually destroyed and removed. No -systein of medicine, no vernifuges, no an- thelininitics will free the system frou) worms ljke these Bitters. For Female Complaints, in young or old, married or single, at the dawn of wo- manhood, or the turn of life, these Tonie Bitters display so decided an influence that improvement is soon perceptible. Cleanse the Vitiated Blood when- ever pou find its impurities barsting through the skin in Pimples, Eruptions, or Sores; cleanse it when you find rt obstructed and sluggish in the veins; cleanse it when it is tanks our feelings will tell you when.

A.D: -—_-—_____- The Washington correspondent of the New York World says : Mr. Lamar, of Mississippi, again distinguish- ed himself to-day as an able and eloquent rep- resentative of the South and a real statesman by delivering a prepared speech on the present political condition of the South, It was the lirst full and fair stateman of the attitude of the white people of the South towards the General Government and also the State governments of tbe South that has been made upon the floor of Congress, With admirable clearness he brush- ed away all the sophistry with which the ques- tion of reconstrvction has been surrounded, and, begining by showing the absolute loyalty and submission of the people of the South at the end of the war, he traced the history of recon- struction, showing how wholly helpless and severely afflicted his people were under recon- struction legislation. He showed how the ma- chinery of the Federal Government had been used to conflict evils greater than confiscation Upon theSoath, anddeclared that although there might by State governments there, there were no States. The question he put to the Repud- licans was whether they had not gone far enough with their policy, towards the South. The speech was a sequel to Mr. Lamar’s oration on Sanger, and was listened to by every member of the House present. . r " ‘ty ad Bw pda tsi} isms ‘ dis net SALISBURY aN : ety In ee Go and Learn a Trade.

Tl siag a fittle song to-night, And every word is true, oath find that every ward is meant, Young, gentleman for you ! I’ve no intention to offend, In what is sung or said, The sum and substance of it is, To go and learn a trade. Chorus ; The “coming man, is he who lives,’ To see his fortune made, Whom everybody will respect, Because he learned a trade. Your education may be good, Sut time is flitting by, Instead of loafing don’t be fooled, The old man may not die ; band t ‘ehanges are, t Or ywoact on ‘iat cent; So go and learn a trade. Chorus, &e. This country’s ful of nice young men, Who from their duty shirk, Who think ’twonld crush their family pride If they should go to work, Take off your coat (your father did,) Ang find some honest maid, Who'll help you make your fortune when You’ve learned an honest trade. Chorus, &e. Be temperate in all you do, Be faithful to your “boss,” You'll find the more you do for him, Will never prove a loss, You'll find in fifty years from now, When fame and fortune’s made, The best step you ever took, Was when you learned a trade.

Some distance south of the street car line, between Rock Island and Millin, a dis- covered a piece ot twine, which he foliow- ed to a culvert anderneath the horse rail- way. Inthe culvert was a can filled with blasting powder and a candle, so arranged thata pull from the string would bring the candle in contact with the powder, ‘The temperance ladies of Moline chartered cara and visited Rock Island on Thursday, and the Rock Island ladies returned the visit Friday. The design has evidently been blow up one of these parties, but had semehow not carried out. Damages May be Recovered from Trades Union in Pennsy}l- vania. Says the Philadelphia Press : A recent case in Titusville, of this State affecting trades unions, has not receiyed the attention its importance seems to dc-~ mand. ‘The compositors of a newpaper struck and refused to work. On this ac~ count one or more issues of the paper were not published, and the proprictors sued the printers’ union for damages. ‘The court decided every point of law against the union, ‘This is a novel phase of the strike question, and it remains to be seen ‘if the precedent will be taken advantage of by capitalists. Of course, unlese the unions are incorporated they can neither sue, nor be sued, but it is hardly to be doubted that the ring leaders of a strike can be held personally respon- sible before the la. Grant’s Organonthe Third Term. The organ at Washington which is supposed to draw its inspiration direct from the White House, the National Ie- publican, is out with an elaborate article in favor of grant for a third term. After discussing the claims and prospects of various aspirants for the Presidency, the editor concludes in this way : “But what of Gen. Grant? Friends and _ foe alike, the most thoughtful men of all parties concede that if the Presidential battle of 1876 were to be fought this year, no can- didate upon the platform could defeat him. Is it not probably that he will be stronger then than Le isnow? Will he accept or decline a renomination ? Will he do as Jefferson did, and put it away from him ? Will he force his renomination ? Will he quarrel with his party ? Will his party dare to quarrel with him? Will he found a new party ? Will he simply content himself with dictating his succes- sor, and if so, who will it be? These be enigmas which no ingenuity can solve, and so the whole Vresidential question remains a mystery and aspeculation. One lesson, however, can be drawn from it— that it is all nonsense to talk about the death of party whose oflicial head ean it is admitted on all sides, be relected for a third term almost without opposi- tior, and in spite of all the traditions of politics. een re ae Mr. Blackbarn the celebrated blindfold chess-player, lately contested eight sim- ultaneous games against members of the London Chess Club, without seeing any of the boards.

A similar island once existed in a small lake near Bangor, Maine, and there are many American in Egypt. | _ American influence is rapidly increas~ ing in Egypt. ‘There are now sixteen Awerican officers in the service of the Viceroy. At the head is General Stone, whose position as chief of staff ia the most influential and important. Generals Lor- ing and Reynolds are old army officers. Both Stone and Loring have lately been made pachas by the Viceroy. He is throughly organizing his army introduc- ing the most approved arms, and prepars ing for a brnsh with the Saltan of Turkey, whieh will make him King instead of Viceroy, whenever the “sick man” gets into any difficulty with Russia or any other foreign powers. A recent accession to the staff is Major Prout, an American engineer, to whom is assigned the impor- tant duty of making asurvey of the delta of the Nile, running the base line east and west through the centre of the great pyramid. : ————~b>>-______ A Wirr’s PowEr.—The power ofa wife, tor good or for evil, is irresistible. Without one, home muet forever be un known. A good wife is to a man wisdom, strength and courage ; a bad one is con- fussion, weakness and despair.—No con- dition is hopeless to a man where his wife possesses firmness, decision and economy. There is no outward propriety which counteracts indolence, extravagance and folly at home. No can long endvre abad influence. Man is strong, but his heart is not adament. TH{e delights in enter- prize and action, but td sustain him he needs a tranquil mind ; and especially if he is an intelligent man, with a whole head, he need his moral force in the con- flict of life. ‘Io recover his composure, tome must be a place of peace and com- fort. ‘here his soul renews its strength, and goes forth with fresh vigor to eneoun- ter to labor with the troublestof life. But if at home he finds no rest, and is there met with bad temper, sulleniies, jealously and gloom, or assailed with complaints and censure, hope vanishes and sinks into despair. Such is the case with too many who, it might seem, have no conflicts or trials in life ; for such is the wife power, Egyptian Judicial Reform. There being some sixteen consulates in Egypt, and every foreigner being lia- ble to be sued only betore the consul of hia own nationality, continual trouble has been the result. After much work on the part of that progressive ruler, the Khedive, for the six past years, a plan for judicial tribunals has been probable give satisfaction. The scheme includes several Courts of first instance, with a Superior Court of Appeal. In all these Courts_a part of judges are to be nativee and a part Franks; the majority in each Court always to be Franks, ‘he Court are to have exclu- sive jurisdiction of civil controversies to which the parties are natives and foreign- ers, or foreigners of different nationalities. It is a matter of congratulation that the United States should have been among the first of the great powers of the world to welcome and to give consideration to the efforts of the Khedive of Egypt to im- prove the administration of justice in his dominions, and that their assent to the new system has now been accorded with due formality. Victor C. BAkRINGER, Exq., of N.C., has been designated by the authorities of the United States and confirmed by the Khedive asthe Judge on behalf of our Gov- ernment, under the new style of Courts in Egypt. We learn that the Egyptain Govern- ment bears all the expenses of these Courts including $8,000 salary to the Judges and the traveling expenses. And for the above information we are indebted to the Charlotte Observer and Boston Advertiser. Cutting Forage Green. A correspondent in the Agricultural Journal says : I see there is a great disposition among the farmers to recommend cutting forage green for stock. My experience with herd grass, oats and corn fodder, is that they should not be cut or gathered too green.—Oats and herds grass should be- gin to turn yellow before they are cut and corn fodder should begin to thicken up and get brittle (where the corn is doirg well) before it is gathered. Who would think of recommending cutting tobacco green, or gathering ap- ples, or peachers, or watermelons, green to make them better or more of them ? I see it recommended to cut corn for for- age as it shoots and tassles. I think it continues to improve uatil the stalk gets too hard for the animils to be fond of it, or refuse to eat the stalks. I know it’s very good while in roasting-ear state for horses and hogs. ——<— WORMS IN HORSES. The following treatment for worms in horses is recommended by the Prairie Farmer : “Divide six ounces of iron-filings into 12 parts, and, with linseed meal and treacle, form as many balls. Give one ball every morning until they are finished, and then give a dose of aloes, [six drachms of Barbadoes aloes, made inty a ball with two drachms of powdered ginger and suf- ficient treacle,] which will eause the ex- pulsiou of any worms which may remain in the horse’s iutestines. ‘Thenceforward support the horse’s strength by good, generous feeding, and give iron, gentian, and arsenious acid in the following man- ner; powdered sulphate of iron, two drachms; powdered gentian root, two drachms ; arsenic, five grains. Mix, and give one such dose in mixed, cut,or soft feed, twice or thrice a week. As salt ap- pears obnoxious to worms we would ad- vise to have placed, constantly, a good sized piece of rock salt in the manger, or common salt, in a corner within reach of such in Southern Florida. hye" of the best known families in New N.

We have heard many charges made against them, but as the to truth of said charges we know nothing. We have heard it said that the stove they sell can be bought from dealers for a great deal less sum than what the Culver Brothers, demand for it. However this may be, we think that dealers who live among us, who give their labor and money to build up the country, to sustain our Ioeal insti- tutions, who pay their taxes aid share the burdens of local government, should have the preference over peddlers, or other venders, no matter how clever they may be. 3 We have no doubt that our people can always get better bargains from home dealers, and it is certainly to their inter- est and to the interest of the community in which thoy live, to give men who live among them the preference. Our people are too much inclined ta patronize ped~ dlers, drummers, and foreign enterprises and it tends to impoverish us as a people. > The Larceny of the Diamonds— The Woman inthe Case. The announcement a few days since that the Grand Duke Nicholas of Russia had stolen diamonds of vast value from his mother, was received with general ins credulity, and many suspected that a po- litical intrigue was at the bottom of the matter. It turns out to be strictly true, the woman to whom they were given be- ingan American adventuress, well known in Philadelphia and New York. Her maiden name was Lizzie Ely, and she is the daugh‘er ofa prominent clerzy- man of the Presbyterian Charch, and one of the company of Northerners who many years ago migrated to Missouri. Le there founded Marion College, about which has been subsequently built. a very prosperous and thriving town. When Miss Lizzie had attained the age of fifteen she was sent by her parents to a boarding school in West Virginia, where she remained quietly for about one year. She was there considered a remarkably intelligent creature, possessing a slight and delicate- ly moulded @gure, but at the same time superb health, while her disposition, tastes: and general accomplishments gained tor her favor and admiration. It was here, that she took the step in her bold, adventurous carcer, that in a moment divoreed her from her dearest friends, severed her from her parents, and held her up before her acquaintances in the most glaring, and at the same time, most unpopular light. To cut the Zerald’s story short, she eloped with and married a man named Blackford. with whom she quarelled, and before a great while, he was found dead in his bed. She then left the South and moved to Philadelphia. Wer rare and spirituelle beauty completely vailed her real character, and for years she mingled in Philadelphia society, even while she lived the life of un adventuress. She afterwards went to New York and lived with, (she says marricd) a young man of good family named Ieenix, At all events, she dropped at this time the name of Lizze Blackford, and called herself Mrs. Feenix. Her career in the metropolitan city, however, was exceedingly brief. The next heard of her was that she had sailed for Paris in company with a num- ork. It is said that while in Paris she kept up her constant dissipation and blackmailing system, though somehow shie moved fora long time among the most respectable American families. It is also stated that she avenged herself upon all who offended her and who refused to as~ sist in the fulfitment of any of her designs. She figured also in other Europeans capi- tals, and at last, it seems, has made away with $175,000 worth of royal diamonds.

Hon. A. H. Stephens’ Speech to Sunday School Scholars. About 2,000 Sunday Sehool Seholars had a picnic on the grounds of, Hon. Alex. H. Stephens, near Crawfordsville, Ga., last week, and that gentleman addressed the audience. A correspondent speaks of the speech as follows : “Clear and ringing came the words. To the teachers and pupils were his words addressed. Before that time numbers had congregated at Crawfordsville, whom he had addressed on political questions, but never before had so many persons been assembled on his grounds. He was glad to welcome them, only sorry that his strength would not allow him to speak to them as fully as his wishes would dictate. It was-to him a cheering sight to see so many enlisted under so holy a banner en- gaged in 8o sacred a cause. It brought back to him the days, more than half a century since, when he had first learned to read within the precincts of a Sabbath school, where first were sown the seeds which had developed into the life of cease- less study and toil of the years gone by. Unable at that time to perform any labor except picking cotton or peas, to that his days when possible were devoted, and two o’clock at night would find him at work with his books. He would counsel them all to study, and to labor through life under the banner with which they came before him to-day. Never before in his life, had he been called on to make an address relating to the future state of man, to religion. _-Politice, most matters within the range of human knowledge had formed the subjects of various addresses this one never. Specially would he direct his words tothe assembled teachers, for upon them rested a weighty responsibili- ty. ‘They should be careful what they taught; not dogmas or sectarian views, but the truths of the Christian religion should be the subjects of their teachings. At no time had the Christian religion been in so great danger as at the present day. The formation of the miuds of the coming generation should receive the closest at~ tention, for they were, in all probability, destined to become the actors in the great- est era of the world’s history. The crea. tion, the flood, the covenant with Abra- ham, the coming of the Saviour, the estab~ lishment of the Christian Church — all great epochs of the past—were no greater than the present, when infidelity, under the form of rationalism, was striking, at the Christian belicf. These rationalists would make dual only ; flesh and blood; the physical man, and the intellectual man. ‘The mysteries of the atonement of saivution, were to be doubted unless this intellect coutd comprhend them. And what was this intellect? It was merely the higher grade of that instinct which the brute possesses, and man, so composed, was a little higher than the brate. No! God breathed into man a living soul, and made mana trinity. God himself was a trinity. ‘These infidels, these rationalists, had their followers—one of them (Dar- win) had written works which prominent publishing houses had given to the world, in which was enunciated the theory that man was but a natural devleopment from the lower oracles of the brute crea- tion. IIe had believers. ‘These rational- ists must be met, not by intellect, but by the thruthe of the religion of Christ, and those truths must be implanted in the hearts of the little children. In conelusion, he both thanked and con- gratulated them all, and expressed the wish that the different schools would pass through his house, thus enabling him to shake hands with the two thousand schol- ars who were present. After this the pro- cession formed, marched to the cars, and were soon being whirled to ther respective homes. ——+<ao—_—_———- {Fayetteville (Ga.)

Hon. A. M. Waddell, the conservative candidate for Congress in the third Dis. trict, opened the campaign at Beaufort on the 1st inst., useisted by Hon. Geo. lav vis of Wilmington. A correspondent of the Wilmington Star speaks of Col. Wad- dell’s speech as follows: “Col. Waddell first addressed the vast multitude in a speech which in language and spirit we dare not attempt to describe. He came out squarely upon the white platform, asserting that in view of the infamous civil rights bill, ‘and the inevita- ble consequences whicd it involved, any white man flat would longer give in his adherence to the Radical party was a traitor to bis race and unworthy the color of his skin. ILe should deem it a diegrace to have the vote of such a wretch. Col: Waddell’s remarks at this juncture were long and loudly applauded by an audience of at least 800 white men, who, true to their race are sensitively jealous of their social rights and uncompromisingly ops posed to any encroachment. This is the right position for conserva- tive candidates, and they should make every other sort of candidate, Radical or independent, say whether they are in fa- vor of the negro social equality bill.

Y., is a very good, quiet eminently plaée. It is supposed to have built itself efter the modern of “Sweet Auburn, loveliest village of the plain.” Some ycars agoa clever country boy went there a stranger, his bright face being his only récommen- dation. His name was E. G. Miles. He was a moral religious boy, and went to Sunday-school and behaved himself well. He became a church member and a mem» ber of all Christain associations, and work- .ed up his character to a high pitch of perfection. Anburn was a8 quiet place to work, and when the work was done it shone brilliantly in that eminently respectable community. The war came and E.G. Miles went into it a lieutenant and came out a captain. He went home to Auburn oat of the blood and smoke of battle almost a hero. He married a good woman of Auburn and finally became one of a solid business firm there. He had charge of the firm's books and did the firm’s buying in New York, Phil- adelphia and Boston. Capt. Miles was an illustration of how a manc uld work up his character to a shining pinnacle of example and the most unquestioning con- fidence. Little boys was told to look at Capt. Miles and take pattern. Little girls were advised that if they were good they might some day become the wife of such another pure man as Capt. Miles. A splendidly wrought up character anda notable example of that thrift and confi- dence that flow from industry and hones- ty could go no further than Capt. Miles. He went off one day to New York to buy goods for the firm, telling bis partners that he might have occasion to draw if he saw achance to buy cheap for cash. They told him to draw if an occasion pre- sented itself. He went to Philadelphia, and then New York, and finally drew $2,500- Some time elapsed. The firm heard nothing more of Capt. Miles and no goods came home to Auburn. Siill the partners had no suspicion of anything wrong. How could they have? Was it not Capt. Miles who was buying the goods, and had drawn $2,500 to pay for them? Atlength Mrs. Miles sent for a member of the firm. She was a confirm~ ed invalid, confined to the house, and very weak. She appeared also to be very an- happy. She said something was going wrong. She had not heard from her bus- band for some weeks, and besides be had taken with him Miss who had lived in the family with them two or three years. Mise Dare, was ae very pretty girl. ‘Tbe poor sick wife had strange misgivings. ‘Ihe partner began to feel queer, too. He quietly stole away to New York, and fonnd a hotel where “i. G. Miles and daughter’ had stop- ped. He went to Philadelphia, and a hotel register revealed the same sort of record of guests who had been and gone. He returned to New York, and wife” had sailed from that port for Cali- fornia some time before. The etcamsbip company’s office was visited and the clerk there had seen and recollected E. Mills and wife. They had applied jast as the vessel was aboat to start, and there was some trouble making room for them. The partner showed the clerk a photograph of E. G. Mills, and the clerk said : “That’a E. Mills ;’ showed a potrait of Miss Dare ; ‘lhat’s Mre. Mills.’ There was no more hunting to do. There is no more story to tell. The partner obtained s requisition from Gov. Dix for the gay captain, and an officer has gone armed with paper to California.

It isa noteworthy fact that after passing fu other places there is a liberal sup- the bonndaries of Rowan, we saw uo negro | working inthe farms. ‘The laborecs were all white people, and about one half of them were women aud girls. Tu soine cases whole familtes wera seen together in the fields, plowing and hocing, evidently leaning upon themselves aod waiting for no eolored per- son” to eome along and do their work. Wes- tern North Carolina is just the land where such independence and self-reliance way flourish. The climate, svil and productions all favor tue development and prosperity of white iabor. We met with some very clever people in our goirg and returning — dwellerg by the way—Wwhom we shall ever remember with pleasare. Mr. John Gray and Mr. S. H. Neely, at County Line, were of this nuinber. The Messrs. Cooper of Osbornville, bad hearts as big as their houses and all out-of-doors— took all infor anight—Rowan and Davie —and sent them away next morning as gay as larks.. [Ask Fed. and Al. and Sol. and Ed.! We also acknowledge the politeness of Mr. I. G-Privette, and of Dr. Haeket and Wm. H: H. Cowles, Esq..at Wilkesboro. And last, but not least, ogr old personal friend, J. R. Fraley, at Williamsburg, who was feral hours without tue delegates from the i sition on the convention question, | Crawford triumphantly vindieated him- terms when her time rolled round, &c., &e. Of course Rowan did not agree to recognize a claim that did not exist. Row- an insisted that Davie had not by reason of any time-honored custom, agreement, usage, or for other reasong, any claim tv suggest the Senator, or to demand that he should be selected from her county at this time. Jt was shown that Davie had been fairly dealt with by Rowan, and that she had been honored with a full share of the Sen- atorial repreacnatives ; in fact, that she had had more than sbe was entitled to accord: iug to her population and number of vot- ers. Davie, on the other hand, couid not, or would not, see it; but insisted that towan must first agree to observe the so- called custom, and furthermore, that it! to iguore the instructions of their county Convention, and agree to vote by town- cast the vote of certain townships in Row- an, who had no more right to do so, after the action of the Rowan county Conven- ltion, than the man in the moon. And it | was really amusing to see with what per- | sisience Davie urged the voting by town- | ships, and that, too, after it had become known that Rowan had but three or four townships represented. In Response, ‘Rowan said that her to the | Senator was just as strong as Davie’s could possibly be ; that she believed that | she was entitled to him, according to the so-called agreement or usage, and certain- ly on the ground of population; that her ‘Convention had directed her delegates for | whom to vote : that inasmuch as the ma- jority of her townships had expressed a preference it was, in fact, a declaration of claim ship in disregard of this declaration. Cons gates; and after the Convention bad indi- cated a preference for Mr. Crawford, the names of the delegates previously appoint- ed were not taken down or included iu the proceedings by the Secretaries. Row- an further showed that it had been the custom, heretofore, to make the selection of Senator on the basis of the representas tion of the two Counties in te House of Commons; that is to say, as Rowan hat two members in the House of Commons, she would be entitled to two votes, while Davie having but one member, was enti- tled to but one vote. ‘These matters were discussed for sev- two counties getting any nearer the nomi- nation of a eandidate than they were at the beginning ; aud, on motion, the chair adjourned the meeting sine die. Lt is proper to say that Capt. Crawford felt called upon,before the Convention adjourned to make a few remarks in reply to some allegations of Mr. Bailey as to Mr. C’s affiliation with Bads and his po< Mr, self, we think, to the satisfaction of all present, After the adjournment the Rowan Del- egation assembled, called Dr. Chunn to the chair, elected Mr. H. C. Bost Seeres tary, and proceeded to cast the vote of the county tor Mr. Crawford, as indicated by our county Convention, The chairman of this mecting, Dr. Chunn, is therefore authorized and empowered to cast the yote of Rowan for Mr. Crawford whenev- er the delegates from Dayie shall agree fo come Ww a vote, for Senator. ‘Thus the matter stands. If Rowan was obstinate, Davie was equally so. If Rowan did wrong in expressing a prefers ence for Capt Crawford, Davie is equally culpable for doing the same thing for Capt Price. According to all the usages that have heretofore obtained in the nomiva- tion of a Senator in this District, Capt Crawford is ungucationably the nomiuee of the Democratic Conservative party for that position, his county in Convention assembled having designated him as the man. When we remember that Rowan’s Conservative vote is more than double that of Davie, it would seem that the matter ought to be settled. But not so. Rowan and Davie are not pulling togeth- cr. They have gotten wrong, As the matter now stands, there does not seem to be any chance to reconcile the people of the two counties to either of the pres- ent aspirants, ‘Then, what is to be done? Shall the stronger or weaker give way? Or shall both parties withdraw and let a third man be selected on whom all can agree! We feel confident that Capt. Craw- eS Lit nn mae Se and we know that Rowan will do, shat is right. - What hes Davie;to aay $ Her delegation was cothposed good aud true men ; and we will not believe that such gensible and considerate gentlemen as Messrs Braxton Bailey, E. Gaither, T.T. Maxwell, Lunn, Howell, Foard, Kelly and others, whom we met last Saturday, will allow prejudice to actuate them in this matter. After due reflection, we feel con- fident that they will admit that they were equally responsible for the failare to make a nomination last Saturday, and will atite with us to adjust the matter, and take proper steps to bring about harmony and concert of action between the’ two cuuns ties. In the foregoing report we have en- deavored to state the causes of division as we understood them, impartially and fair- ly, and without intending to reflect upon Davie any more than Rowan. We Lave made no attempt to give the exact pro- ceedings, for this were impossible, and not important. If we were to attempt to do so, we would be compelled to occupy. much space with the particulars of one of the most remarkable and rapid restora- tions to health from an alleged incapaci- tating indisposition, ever heard of in the world’s history. We allude to the case of our triend Mr. B. Bailey. SEVENTH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT CONVENTION. This body met at Wilkesboro, on Thurs- day 11th June, instant. The meeting was called to order by Col. Wm. H. H. Cowes, who, after announcing the objects of the Convention, requested the meeting to pro- ceed at once to the election of peru:anent officers, Mr. J. G. MARLER, of Yadkin, was elected President; and Messrs. MaTues, of the Wens- ton Sentinel, and Bruner, of the Carolina Watchman, Secre*aries, The President clect, on taking the chair, delivered a brief but very appropriate ad- dress on the occasion which had brought them together. He believed that harmony and good feeling would characterize their deliberations; and that they would go home nerved and strengthened for the contest up- on which they were entering. On motion of Capt. W. W. Lona, of Yad- kin, the list of counties composing the dis- trict was now called, when it was found that all were duly represented by regular dele- gates in person. Mr. P. C. Car.ton, of Iredell, presented a letter from Mr. R. F. ARMFIELD, address- ed to the President and members of this Convention, which was ordered to be read, and is as follows: STATESVILLE N. C., June 8th, 1874. Mr. Chairman and gentlemen of the Walkes- boro Convention: Many of my friends in the several counties composing our Congressional District have expressed a desire to bring my mame before you for the nomination you have assembled to make, and up to this time I have silently acquiesced in the proposition to do so; but in mingling with the people on the Spring Cir- cuit, I think I have ascertained the fact that there is a prevailing desire among a majori- ty of our Democratic-Conservative friends to endorse the course of Major Robbins in the last Congress by re-electing him to another term; and I feel bound to take cognizance of this tact, and respect the will of the peo- ple. If by any chance, your body should enter- tain different views, yet I could not take a nomination to office unless it came from the unasked and spontaneous will of my fellow citizens. I therefore withdraw my name from your consideration, that there may be no bar to harmony and unanimity in your councils, and that an undivided and unshaken front —the surest omen of victory—may be pre- sented to the enemy. As for myself person- ally, in this great battle which is to decide the destiny of the white race of the South, and as I believe the liberty or slavery of the whole country, I am content, if it is best for the cause in which we all tight, to occupy the position of a private in the ranks, and though my ratious should be nothing but “Hard tack and raw bacon,” and my wages payable, “Six months after a treaty of peace between the Confederate States and the Uni- ted States,” yet I will never desert the flag, or murmur in the day of adversity. When Napoleon was contemplating an in- vasion of England, he asked the gallant Kle- ber if he would go with him ; “Yes,” said he, “T will go, and if you want to throw a tire ship into the Thames, put me on board of it, and I will show you what Kleber can do.” So I say fo you, I will go with you, and if you have a forlorn hope to be lead, and can find no worthier man, give it to me, though it be on board a fire-ship, and if I falter, say I am not a Conservative from principle. Wishing you all harmony and unanimity in your deliberations, and pledging myself in advance to the support of your nominee, I have the honor to be, with high regards, Your fellow citizen, R. F. ARMFIELD. Mr. A. M. Bocwe, of Alexander, said that among the first things in order of time to be settled by the Convention was the’ basis of voting; and he proceeded to enumerate the various rules which were adopted by similar bodies, On motion of Mr, Lintinaton, the Con- yention adopted the basis of representation in the lower House of the General Assem- bly, as the rule for yoting in this Conyen- tion. Capt. W. W. Loye, of Yadkin, proposed that the Convention now proceed to the nomination of a candidate to represent the District in the next Congress of the U. States, and he took pleasure in putting in nomina- tion the name of the Hon. Wm. M. Rosarns, of Iredell, for re-election. The Chairman, Mr, Maruer, desired dele- gates to make their nominations; but no other name being presented— On motion of Mr. James D. Hunt, of Wil- kes, the list of Counties was now called, and the delegates representing them requested to vote, when it was found that the Hon. Ws. M. Rogsins was unanimously chosen for re-election. This announcement was greeted with cheers, and the liveliest satisfaction. On motion of A. M. Boaxe, Esq., of Alex- harvesting a magnificent crop of wheat. ford is willing to do what is right and fair, ander, 8 Committee consisting of one from ee ee a ea ‘each county, was appointed te wait on Ma- jor Rosztns, (who was. then in town), poti- fy him of his nomination ‘and request /-his appearance in the Convention to “hake his : response thereto. $ Ae &4 On motion of Mr. J. D. Huxt, of Wilkes, a Committee of three was ordered to prepare resolutions for the action of this Conven- tion. Committee on Resolutions, through their chairman, Mr. Marues, of Winston, reported the following ; _ a= bt? be see Inasmuch as the Republican me have by the passage’ of the Civil Ri through the Senate of the United States by a strict party vote, drawn the line of color— Resolwed, That the Democratic-Conserva- tive party of the Seventh Congressional Dis- trict accepts the issue, and while we would not deprive the colored race of any right or privilege guaranteed to them by the Con- stitution of the State or United States, we are of opinion that the good of both races and the prosperity of the State demand that her destinies should be controlled by the White Race. Resolved, That as it is certain that the Civil Rights Bill now pending before Con- gress, will pass the House and become a law at the next session of Congress, if not at this, unless there is a decided uprising of the white people of the South in opposition to it in the ensuing clection ; and as one of the most prominent features of that bill is the one relating to public schools, it. is of great importance to the people of our State that the Superintendent of Public In- struction should be'a man‘cf that party op- posed to the Civil Rights Bill and mixed schools, and not of the party that is attempt- ing to force this odious measure of mixed schools upon the country. . Resolved, That the present Revenue System is extremely oppressive to the whole coun- try, and particularly so to the people of this district, and that we demand its entire abol- ishment, or if that cannot-be obtained, we desire an amendment of its most injurious and oppressive features. Resolved, That we arc in favor of such legis- lation on the subject of the finances and cur- rency as will give the people of the South more money and at lower rates of interest. Resolved, That we hail with satisfaction the recent success of our party in the States | of Wisconsin, New Hampshire, Connecticut, Oregon and other States, as indicating a general uprising of the people of the whole United States in condemnation of the mal- administration of the party in power, and that we of the Seventh promise our sister districts to do ou full duty in the coming election to redeem our beloved old State, and place her in ine with her sister States in the march towards retorm and good gov- ernment. Resolved, That we endorse the course of our Representative in Congress, the Hon. W. M. Ronsiys, and’that we pledge him an in- creased majority. On motion, the foregoing preamble and resolutions were now voted on, and unani- mously adopted. The How. We. M. Ropsens having, in the meantime, come into the Convention, was called, and amidst the most rapturous ap- plause took the stand. After thanking the Convention for renew- | ed confidence in him, he briefly adverted to the subjects contained in the foregoing reso- lutions. cible, and was concluded amidst the enthu- siastic applause of the Convention, It was on motion, His speech was pertinent and for- Resolved, That the Conservative journals of the District and of the State be request- ed to publish the proceedings of this Con- vention, The Convention then on motion adjourned, sine de.

To be these effects are nothing new. The great vege- table invigorant and its cures have been before the people for more than twenty-five years, and in every year of the twenty-five its popularity, has increased and its sale has become larger. Yet there are no doubt many thousands of in- telligent citizens who have never bad an op- portunity of observing for themselves the sur- prising changes which this unequalled tonic and alterative produces in systems which seein to be hopelessly broken, and in cases of disease which aré not amenable to ordinary remedies. Probably many of these regard the statements made in relation to the sanitary properties of the Bitters with some degree of incredulity. Would that all such skeptics conld see with their own eyes what the medicine is doing for the sick and feeble everywhere, what a staff of life it is proving to the aged and infirm, what a help in time of trouble to feeble women suff- ering from the complaints and disabilities pe- culiar to the sex, what a protection to health and life in malarious districts, what a panacea for languor and depression, what a specific for all diseases in which the system requires to be vitalized and sustained.

H. Joyce. Msq., for Solicitor, and re~ leommended W.H.

Twelve of her appointees accept- led the honor conferred on them and were lin attendance. Of these latter 7 were ‘farmers.

Sid made his cas cape. ‘The boys are about fifteen years old. John Allen Ketchy. —The time of this condemned man has been extended one week longer. ‘This was granted him | by the Governor, not so much at the ur- | gent solicitation of one of his counsel as | at the request of his spiritual advisers. | The facts in this case secm to be that the prisoner, thongh condemned, had not, un- til very recently, come to believe that ine case was hopeless. He had confi- dently expected relief in some way, And during all this time had made no special spiritual preparation ; but on the contrary, seemcd disposed to wave the whole sub- ject. Ile now believes that the law will be executed, and he is more than willing to prepare for death and the judgment. This was his condition Friday evening which time Gov. Caldwell | was passing through this place. Mr. MeCorkle, one of his counsel, seized the last, about favorable opportunity and presented the subject to the Governor, who granted the If Mr. McCorkle’s application had not been respite bat not without hesitation. carnestly sustained by the prisoners spirit ual advisers, to morrow would have been his last day on earth. Ags it is, he has one more week, The enforcement of Civil Rights in a vew form produced some little excitement on Fisher street Wednesday morning last. A colored lad, not having the fear of the law before his eyes, has been for. some time visiting Mrs. Boyden’s garden and taking thereform apples, &c., which he peddled on the streets. Mr. A. fH. Boy- den, had spotted him, and yesterday morning pursued him up street, overtook, him, and proceeded to administer a whole- some chastisement. The young peddier in stolen fruit sung out in such a way as tosatiafy all that his langs were not effected. Whata pity more of the theives can ] not be detected and similarly punished. DAVID SCHENCK, ESQ. Our friends of Salisbury Wate have done Me Belen the tes nominee for Jadge in this District, : J , a very great injustice in‘an article published some weeks ago, and which has been copied by Radical papers. Mr. Schenck proved in his speech in thie city during Court week, that his Ku-Klux testimony had been ineorrcetly reported aud grosaly misrepresented.—Charloite Democrat. If we have done Mr. Schenck any in- Justice it is to be attributed: to the testi. mony referred to by the Democrat. This testimony, Mr, Schenck says, war pub- lished without having been previously corrected by him, and that it contains gross misrepresentations. Mr. Schenck says that no parties were sent to the Peniten- tiary from his district, at,least, after his testimony was taken. Now, it affords us pleasure to give Mr. Schenck’s version of the matter. It is gratifying to hear that Mr. Schenek ex- plains this whole matter to the entire satisfaction of his friends wherever he speaks. Mr. Schenck bas publish acard in which he shows very clearly that he received, in the Convention which nominated him, & majority of the counties, a majority of the Townships, and a large majority of the numerical Conservative strength of the District, and that the Convention was fairly and properly conducted. In view of these facts, we think that Mr. Schenck is entitled to the support of every Democrat or Conservative in his district, no matter what private or per- sonal objections there may be ta him. He has cleared up the Ku Klux charges against him to che satisfaction of all parties, he has clearly won the nomination, he is a good lawyer, able, zealous and prompt, and he should be elected. After these facts become known to the people of hia District, it would be a burning shame for them to allow Logan to be elected over him. ‘There is now bat one obstacle, in the way of his success, and that is, the op- position offered by Col. Hoke. Col. Hoke is a high-toned, honorable geatleman and true Conservative, and we are persuaded that Le was, like ourself, laboring under a’ misapprehension of the facets with re- spect to Mr. Schenck, otherwise he never would have consented to oppose him, as an independent. And we have no doubt as he becomes acquainted with all the facts, he will withdraw from the canvags and support Mr. Schenck. Col. Hoke is a gentleman of too much character to be swayed by passionor pr judice, and he will not do any thing that will even remotely redound to the benefit of Radicalism.

Raleigh Crescent: Ahi Robbing, an honest old father of Randolf county, raised and educated at college, scyen sons all young men of talent, industry and integrity. Five were slain in battle during the late war, and the remaining two, H@. Wm. Robbins, and Frank Robbins, were maimed for life. Hon. Wm. N. is now in Congress and has golden opinions, from friend and foe, by his bold oratory and fearless course. In view of this slow progress it is worth while for Congress to consider whether it has not made the mistake of interfering too much in the affaira of the Southern States and of overdoing the work of re constraction. ‘I'be best thing Congress can do with Arkangas, and with every other State, unless clearly called upon by the requirements of the constitution to interfere, is to severely let them alone. What the people of the South want is rest and local aclf-government, instead of Congressional interference. ‘The condition of affairs in some of those States is cer- tainly very bad, but the interference pol- dey does not seem to help them much, and we should like to see the let-alone policy tried for a while.—Jndianapolis Journal. A RemarkKabie Lapy—ANn ACTUAL Factr.—Mrs. Polly Ward, of this county who was in ‘lucker & UCo’s., store on yesterday, has not purchased a “store dress” for 24 years. When the late war broke ont, she had 30 homespun dresses unmade, spun and woven by her own hands, which she thought would last her for ber lifetime, bat she found the goods so cheap in Mesars. ‘Tucker & Co’s., store, that she said that she must buy one “any how,” for they were a3 clicap a@@ when she was a girl, She had on at flre‘time a calico on the ‘Dolly Varden order,” which she bought 24 years ago. Sheis the mother of 14 children and has raised them all, and says she always thonght it was better to get them some- thing to eat and wear than to get it for herself.—Ialeigh News Tae DiFPRRENCE BETWEEN ENGLAND AND T1118 CounTry.—Elections in’ Hn giand are not modcls of fairness and de~ eorum, and indeed are a great deal worse fian our own, but then the injustice done at the polls is often redressed on petition. Thirteen members of the present. House of Commons have aiready been unseated far mal practices at the last general elee- tion—one for bribery, one for corruption, one for intimidation and five for “treat- ing”—and there are others to hear from , That is the way they do things under a *monarchical despotism. In our free and glorious country a gentleman who gets into Congress by false certificates or re- turns of imaginary majorities is likely to stay there as he can keep on good terms with the party in power. Or if his aac ia altogether too flagrant he is sent home gently at the end of the session, with a large allowance for pay, mileage ~and expenses. There is in Paris,” says the London Echo, ‘‘an aged woman, who has for the last fifty years, supported herself by an industry of which, we believe, she enjoys acomplete monopoly. Shesupplies the Garden of Acelimatization, in Paris, with food for the pheasants, which food con~ sists entirely of ants eggs. ‘Vhere she ‘collests in the woods around Paris, and receives about twelve francs (about $2.- 50) for the quantity she brings back from each of her foraging expeditions. ‘These gencrally last three or four days, during which she sleeps on the field of action, in order to watch the insects at dawn, and so find her way to their treasures. She js almost devoured by the anta, an incon wenience of which she takes little notice, | bat at the end of her harvest time, which fasts from the month of June to the end of September, her whole body is in a truly pitiable condition. Her services are, of course, highly valued, for, as there is at present no competition in this line of. in- dustry, it would be difficult to supply her place. Tae Sirvation IN France.—The Aseembly, under the new Ministry, has entered apon the discussion of the con- atitutional laws. ‘wo things appear evident. The first is, that the Bonapart- iat. hold the balance of power and endeav- or to precipitate chaos, tumult and revolu- sive in the hope that power will come as it came after the coup d'etat. The other js, that the extreme legitimists and the republicans are virtually in alliance to compel the dissolutions of the Assembly. It ie difficult to see how a dissolution can be prevented. France no longer respects an aseembly that has no representative wer. M. Gambetta, a clear minded, and,jadged by the Rochefort type, a conservative politician, has becn making aspeech in which he compliments the republican party upon its admirable or- ganization, and predicts that the final atruggle will be between the Republicans and ists. We see no better so- lation to this problem than the declaration of g republic McMahon, and a frank sgipnes on is part of the fact that ‘only a republic is possible in France. The time has come when this soldier may: besome the Washington of France. hias the courage and the patriotism If he to be so it will be well for his fame and f for the future happiness of his country.— NV. ¥. Herald, a oa —— Outlines of a Celebrated Case. | Now that dhe celebrated Jumel “Will case is ended, and George Washington Bowen forever restrained interfering with the present possessors, the Chases, it may be interesting to givea full outline sketch- es of one of the most prolonged and noto- rious trials in American jurispradence. Madam Jumel was originally a courtesan of Providence, Rhode Island. She came to New York with Mongicur Jamel, a wealthy Frenchman, and finally induced him to marry her. When he died he left her all his property, which fact temp ted Aaron Burr, then an old beau of bro- ken fortunes, to court her. One evening before she had excepted him he brought a minister to the house, pressed his suit impetuously, won consent in a sudden freak, married her, and was divorced soon after. Madam Jumel bequeathed her money to an adopted ehild, who mariicd a Chaze. George Washington Bowen claimed to be an illegitimate son of Mad- am Jumel, and to inherit throngh his mother; and that the will devising the property to the Chases was obtained through undue influence, He has been defeated. ‘I'he estate is worth six mill- ion dollars. The Soldier’s Dream. If, in 18G1, when patriotic speeches were made, and men volunteered to die for their country, a soldier had dreamed that 1874 would see him in his grave, and his wife Isabella cooking for a colored family ; his daughter Jane blacking boots for negro boys, and his son John bound for seven years as the slave of an ignore ant, and crucl negro, such a dream would have been treated a3 a suggestion of the Devil. And yet this is just what has oc curred. It is true that [ bave stated an extreme case, but the fact that such a case is allowed, and treated with indifference by those who once made fair promises to protect and provide for the families of the soldiers, proves that others may suffer similar hardships. I can give the names of many orphans who are to-day oppress: ed and degraded, hunted down and en- slaved by mean men of both cclors, while good men disregard all their mute appeals for help, and rescue. Reader, if you doubt these statements, the proof is at hand. If you believe them, [ask your hearty co-operation with the Orphan Asylum at Oxford. You can easily inform yourself and then inform me about the Orphans living in obscure places in your neighborhood, and in the neighborhoods you rie and help them find the way out of théfr obscurity. When an opportunity occurs you can state the case plainly and give the people the privilege of making a contribn'ion to help a good work. Be careful not to annoy them, just tell them that there is a place where Orphana, poor and promising, over six and under twelve years of age are fed, clothed and taught so that they can grow up into nseful citizens. ‘That many have been rescucd from extreme degredation and are now making rapid progress in their studies. Then ask them if they ap- prove such a work and how much they approve it, Rev. J. R. Griffith, once a school man himsclf, has endorsed the work with a large contribution taken from a preacher’s salary. He visita the Asy- lum every week and prays with the child: ren. Six denominations are represented among officers of the Institution. Now, reader, be no longer indifferent in regard to this work. ‘Take sides for or against it.

Walker’s California Vin- egar Bitters are a purely Vegetablo preparation, made chiefly from the na- tive herbs found on the lower ranges of the Sicrra Nevada mountains of Califor- nia, the medicinal properties of which are extracted therefrom without the use of Alcohol. The question is almost daily asked. ‘ What is the canse of the unparalleled suceess of VINEGAR Bit- Tens?” Our answer is, that they remove the cause of disease, and the patient re- covers his health. ‘They are the great blood purifier and a life-giving principle, a perfect Renovator and Invigorator of the system. Never before in the history of the world has a medicine been compounded possessing — the remarkable qualities of VixkGar Lirrers in healing the sick of every disease manis heir to.

Bilious, Remittent and Inter- nittent Fevers, which are so preva- lent in the vallevs of our great rivers throughout the United States, especially those of the Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri, Illinois, ‘Tennessee, Cumberland, Arkan- sas, Red, Colorado, Brazos, Rio Grande, Pearl, Alabama, Mobile, Savannah, Ro- anoke, James, and many others, with their vast tributaries, throughout our entire country during the Summer and Aution, and remarkably so during sea- sons of unusual heat and dryness, are invariably accompanied by extensive de- rangements of the stomach and liver, and other abdominal viscera. In their treatment, a purgative, exerting a pow- erful influence upon these various or- gans, is essentially necessary. There is no cathartic for the purpose equal to Dr. J. Wanker's VINEGAR Brerers, as they will speedily remove the dark- colored Viseid matter wich which tic bowels are loaded, at the same time stimulating the secretions of the liver, and generally restoring the healthy functions of the digestive orzans, Fortify the hody against disease Thesé Bitters must become the univ edy of thelage.” Thete is nothing MOI. equal to.them ander thepun. / Pesto rethe weak, invigorate the feeble, and give new li(. and tone to the broken down system.

Cleanse the Vitiated Blood when- ever you find its impurities bursting through the skin in Pimples, Eruptions, or Sores; cleanse it when you find it obstructed and sluggish in the veins; cleanse it when it is foul; your feclings will tell you when.

Now I Lay Me down to Sleep. In the quiet nursery chambers, Snowy pillows yet unpressed, See the forms of little children Kneeling, whitte-robed vor their rest, All in quiet nursery chambers, While the dusky shadows creep. Hear the voices of the children— “Now I law me down to sleep.” In the meadow and the mountain, Calmly shine the winter stars, But across the glittering lowlands Slant the moonlight’s silver bars, In the silence of the darkness, Darkness growing still more deep, Listen to the little children Praying God their souls to keep. “If we die—so pray the children, _And the mother’s head droops low 5 (One from out her fold is sleeping ;) .

These quack medicines owe their soothing and gre, effects to the action of opium, and the infant is by them given a morbid appetite for nareotic stiumlants. The offering for sale of cuch nostrums should be prohibited, as tending to the physical and moral deterioration of the race. In India mothers give to their infants pills containing opium, and the result is a languid, . sensual. race of: hopeless debauchees.-- In the United States the poisonous dose is adntinistered under another name, but the consequences will probably be the same. ——_———~ioo__—- The competition between the New’ York lines of ocean steamers has nearly reached a point which reminds one of the sharp Neale in old times upon the Ches- apeake, when passengers were begged to come aboard and furnished with meals and staterooms, and their railroad fares paid to their destinations. So it is said ; we do not vouch for it. But the Europe- an voyage now is at a merely nominal price, and it is as cheap to goto France as to Niagara, From twenty to tweaty- five dollars is the reduced fare over and the different companies are as busily engaged in cutting each others’ throats as a com- munity deairons of traveling economically could desire.—Baltimore Gazette. ———_~ > Drath oF Cocutse.—A dispatch trom San Francisco announces the death of the Apache chief, Cochise. The last year or two of this notorious sayage were pass-~ ed without hostility, after a lifetime of uncompromising hate and revenge against the white race, and, aa recently stated, his last days were racked with fever filled with horrid imaginings of his victims haunting his bedside and tearing his flesh. The theatre of his numerous tragedies embraced chiefly parts of Arizona and New Mexico, and it will be remembered, required no little fighting, a member of special measages, and considerable plead- ing, besides the concession of his life, though the Modoc chief was scarcely more savage, to bring him to terms of space. ———-~-+.>>-____—_——- HomesTEAD Deciston.— Chief Justice Waite, of the U.S Supreme Court, has recently decided in Virginia, that the interpretations of the Bankrupt Act de-~ claring that the exemptions allowed a Bankrupt should be the homestead , ex- emnptions allowed by the State where he resides, i8 not constitutional because not uniform. He also decided that the homestead in Virginia cannot be claimed against debts contracted prior to the 6th of July, 1866, in the bankrupt court any more than in the State courts. Virginia courts have decided,(and we think correctly, too) that Lomestead exemptions do not hold good against old debts. The act of Congress of 1873 is declared void for ununiformity is thig, that it gave more exemption thau the State laws gave when debts were contracted.— Salem Press. >>> + ___———- They have a wonderful freak of nature in Wilmington—a white child with black parents, Itis nine months old, and a girl, and the Star says it is one of the greatest curiorities of the human spe- cies. Its form and features are perfect up to the bridge of the nose, the chin, mouth and nasal organ being not only well-formed but really handsome in their symmetry and general appearance, but commencing with the eyes the face and head has the appearance of an animal, more resembling a white bear than anything else of the animal species our informant could call to mind. ‘The hair ia of a whitish color and like the wool of a sheep. Its eyes are round and piercing, resembling those of a mink and revolve in their sockets in a very peculiar manner. They cannot bear the light of a lamp or candle: and are in- stantly closed when one is brought in the room and are only kept open in the day time when the room is somewhat darkened. It has no eyebrows and the lid is of a peculiar formation, in no particular resem- bling the eyelid of a human being. It is very timid and when any one approaches it has the appearance and actions of a rabbit startled from its lair and is a fine ficld for those who make human nature in its various forms and peculiarities an ob- ject of study and analysis. A Morat.—A nut dropped by a squir- rel fell through the opening in the middle of an old millstone which lay upon the ground, and being thus protected, grew into a thriving sapling that shot up— throngh the opening. Iq afew years it had increased so that it Aled, tlia space and was firmly wedged to the sides of the heavy stone. Still it grew and ina few more years, little by little it lifted the entire weigh clear from the earth, so that aman could sit beneath it. All was done atom for atom, borne by the sap to the growing trank. Think of this, my little man, puzzling over “long division”’ in arithmetic; little by little of thinking and working will take you through frac- tions, rule by three, and those terrible problems at the ‘end of the book, by and by ; but be sure that the little by little is not neglected. And you, hard working lad on the farm, or in the shops, look at Franklin, Watts, Morse, Field, and thou» sands more who have lifted the weight of circumstances - that would hold them downy like millstones and who have by their steady perseverance risen above their fellows easily bearing their burdens; and ‘‘Keep begging away.” vertiser quoted’ thé ‘following’ state from another ‘paper: “We have us a clipping from’a copy of Liberty Hall’ published in this‘¢ity in 1816, where'a eet ere oe is related2—’ the name‘ of ' the “ physician being * giver’ —of a Mrs. Jobn Kal of metcer coutity;4 Pa., who had just ‘given’ birth to ‘five’ children, that being'the second effort’ of the kind ‘within’ twelve months, ° or tert children born within the year.” And the: Advertiser adds this: “Mrs. Kelly, refér- red toi above, ‘resided “in ' Lackawannock tawnship.

A few words passed between them, and when the General was about to ask the stranger his name, the unknown friend said: ‘General, please let me have a cou- ple of dollars, and at the same time inno- cently taking the bill out of the General’s hand, turned on bis heels and walked off, leaving our Congressman standing ina state of perfect consternation, This is the way members are served in Wash. ton. —_—_-_~@&ao- The Late Severe Accident on the Central Railroad. The Wilmington papers of yesterday contain the latest information concerning the terrible accident which occurred on the Central Road, near Lilesville, on Weduesday morning, but have little ad- ditional to the account given in our telc- graphic columns yesterday. In addition to the three already announced as having been killed, the engineer, Mr. Galvin, died Wednesday night. The cause of the accident was the washing out of a eulveit built in 1860, over which rested a firm old bank, and the track on that part of the road is in most excellent order Some six inches of rain fell ‘Tuesday night, doing great damage to the crops as wellas to the road, ‘The Wilmington Journal, alluding to the disaster,— Bays: Everything possible has been done for the sufferers, and Col. Fremont left here yesterday afternoon, on a special train, for the scene. The entire community was dreadfully shocked, and nothing was talked of but the terrible disaster. We can: only hope that we have already heard the worst. Mr. Galvin the engineer who perished at his post, was not only faithful and efficient officer, but he was one of the most clever gentlemen we ever knew, and we speak this advisedly, as we have many times ridden with him on his engine over portions of the road. He has many warm friends and devoted relatives in this eity, who are deeply grieved at the distressing news of his death. Col. Fremont, in a note to us, says: “John Galvin, that good engineer and faithful seryant, long in the service of the Company, is dead, making four that have perished in this, our first accident, and the worst I have ever hadin twenty years railroad service.” Fairly Stated. The Question of Special Likes and Dis- likes Culmly and Ably Discussed in a Northern Paper. [Syracuse (N. Y.,) Standard.] Put yourselves in their places, is good advice for those who insist that it is right to force the southern people to mingle with the nezroes socially. Nobody thinks of providing that white people shall be treated as social equals by the negroes ; yet there wocld be just as much sense and justice in this. It is a kindness to the blacks to make their social recogni- tion by the whites compulsory. One step more meaus practical miscegenation, which nature stamps as a sin, and an amendent compelling intermarriage will be demanded as a supplement of the civil rights bill, if the latter is passed. Negroes will not consider themselves social equals, and in the enjoyment of all the rights of the white man, until parents recognize their right to court and marry white girls, ‘This is what the eivil rights bill tends to. It may be an unreasonable prejudice, as the Independent says, that makes the idea of mixed schools repulsive, bat it is deeply rooted in human nature. Indivi- duals who have never done each other wrong, are often matually repulsive from first sight, while in some cases the repul- siveness is confined to one side. Why may not races feek the operation of the same law, and acknowledge its force ? This would not be to do any injastice. It is but to recognize a Jaw of nature, and have regard for dislikca as well as for our food, so should it be with our asso- ciations. Wehavea choice.

The frog, on pretence of great affection, and of keeping his companion out of harm’s way, tied the mouse’s bind foot to his own hind leg, and thus they proceeded for some distance by land. Presently they came to some water, and the frog, bidding the mouse have good courage, began to swim across. ‘They had scarcely, however, arrived midway, when the frog took a sudden plunge to the bottom, dragging the mouse after him. Bat the Struggling and flounder» ing of the mouse made so great a commo- tion in the water that it attracted the at~- tention of a kite, which, pouncing down and bearing off the mouse, carried away the frog at the same time in his train. el alliances generally end in ruin; and fle man who compasses the destruction of his neighbor is often caught ir’ his own snare. From the Raleigh Era. The Old Whigs. Col S D Peol, the Democratic candi-~ date for Superintendent of Public Instruct- ion, was an old Whig. Gen M W Ransom, the Democratic U. S. Senator from North Carolina, was a old Whig. : Gov Vance, the regular nominee of the Democrats for United States Senator, was an old Whig. Maj Jesse Y. Yeates the Democratic candidate for Congress in the First Dis- trict, was au old Whig. . Col Alfred M Waddell, the Democratic candidate for Congress in the Third Dis- trict, was an old Whig. Capt Joseph J. Davis, the Democratic candidate for Congress,in the Fourth District, was an old Whig. IIon ‘'hos S Ashe, the Democratic candidate for Congress in the Sixth Dis- trict, was an old Whig. Maj W M Robbins, the probable Dem- ocratic candidate for Congress in the Seventh District, was an old Whig. Gen R B Vance, the Democratic candi- date for Congress in the Eighth District, was an old Whig. Capt Mills L Eure, the Democratic candidate for Judge in the First District, was an old Whig. Bartholomew Fuller, Esq., the Demo- cratic candidate for Judge in the Fayet- teville District, was an old Whig. Hon John Kerr, the Democratic candi- date for Judge in the Greensboro District, was an old Whig. Uhomas J Wilson, Esq., the Demo- cratic candidate for Judge in the Salem Diswict, was an old Whig. The only old Democrats who have suc- ceeded in obtaining nominations from the present Democratic party are Col A A McCoy for Judge in the Wilmington District and Gen Scales for Congress in the Greensboro District. Verily the Crescent was speaking truly when it said the old Democrats are only “hewers of wood and drawers of water for the old Whigs.” REMARKS. While it is an undeniable fact that the lion’s ehare of honors and emoluments have fallen to the lot of the “old line Whig” portion of the Democratic-Conser- vative party in North Carolina, we beg leave to assure our Radical Raleigh co- temporary that it need not bope to take any advantage therefrom. ‘he devotion of the old line Democrats to “he cause of good government, the rights of the States and the liberty of the citizen is aot to be guaged by the measure of spoils that falls to their lot. Their political action springs from a sense of duty and if it happens that a greater share of the honors and emoluments falls to their old liae Whig brethren than to’ themselves they will cone the less do their duty. Our Radical friends will take nothing from their attempts to create dissatisfacts jon in our ranks by appeals tothe sel fishness of “old line Democrats.” Morat. -- Iuconsiderate and ill-matche THE OLDEST VOTER.

The last Asheville Expositor has the fullowing : Prof. Brady, of East Tennessee Uni- versity, who recently passed through Asheville with the graduating class of that institution on a visit to the earthquake region of Bald Mountain, 24 miles east of us, publishes a letter in the Knoxville Chronicle, giving the result of his visit. The letter adds little new to what all were aware of before. The rumblings and other sounds had ceased on his arrival, and he only heard descriptions of them from others. Says the Prof. “There is nothing properly volcanic a- bont them, and the region shows no vol- canic rocks. “Bald Mountain consists of micaceous and hornblendi« schists and gucisses, hav- ing variable southeasterly dip character- istic of the whole range. “The upturned positions of the rocks of all this region give abundant evidence that it has been a region of disterbance through many ages past, and at the same time furnish the means of understanding the new phenomena. “Drying and cooling are both accompa- nied by contraction. As an apple dries, its pulp contracts ; and the skin remaining attached in part to the pulp, but not cons tracting, proportionally wrinkles; as an orange dries, on the contrary, the stiff rind refuses to yield and remains smooth, the pulp being pulled apart. When the earth was hotter than now—and there is reason for believing that it was once melt- ed—it was much larger and its crust was originally smooth. As the globe cooled its consequent contraction caused great pressure in the stiffening crust,aad yielding to the pressare, the crust wrinkled. ‘The same process of cooling and contraction is still going on, but the crust long since got too thick and stiff to bend readily, 80 that its modern yielding has been very largely by breaks. Very extensive aud sudden fractures are naturally accompan- ied by sudden displacements of the sur- face (and often by loud noises) forming great earthquakes, whose cffects are felt for hundreds or thousands of miles. Lut, if the breaks are small, the disturbance will be heard and felt at but small distan- ces ; and euch have been all the earths quakes that have originated in the Ap- pulachions since the country has been koown to white men; and such are the disturbauces in question.’ NO. 36. For THE WATCHMAN. Mr. Vernon, N.C., June 15th, 1874. DEAR WATCHMAN :— I have just read, in your last issue, what you say abont raising a monument to EpGaR ALLEN PoE; and I seize my rusty pen to endorse every word of it, and to thank you most heartily for such trathful and manly utterances. One of my best friends was persecuted, when a youth, for having been raised a Pres- byterian ; and afterwards, as a man, he was dogged and ostracised because it was plain he did not lean towards the Presbyterians.— Of course it was only so-called Methodists ou the one hand, and so-called Presbyterians on the other that descended to this contemptible work—but most of them were men of influ- ence, and did my friend a precious sight of harm. I ean testify, from my own personal ob- servation. that my friend loves the church with all his heart. Not the Methodist, or the Presbyterian, or the Baptist or the Epis- copalian church particularly, but the whole brotherhood of believers. whether they are posted on the saint or sinner side of puritan- ical ledgers. /He is as kind-hearted as the best Bishop, and as prayerful as any of them; yet he has been known todo some things not just right, and to have the ridiculous effrontery to acknowledge it. I want you to talk on in that strain, when- ever you feel like it; aud I stall give you attentiou and huzzas to the extent of my a- bility. What has not narrow-minded bigotry done, to kill out all religion, if it could! It poisoned Soerates—it built all the millions of fires around the martyrs from age to age —it brought on the last war in this country —it has furced the negro on us as a voter— it is discouraging aud disgusting and irritat- ing and keeping thousands of good men out of the visible church of Christ to-day. Shall I speak of what it did for Poe, and many of his cast of intellect? Ido not doubt that the sanctimonious elect, who would not ostensibly hurt a worm or take a lamb from its mother, who drove Tom Hood to appear half a seorner, and who could always do im- mense hurt to human beings by raisiag and fustering prejudices and slanders. did their meanest with E. A. Poe. Speak ont Mr. Watchman! You are right! E: PH: ——- +e The Fate of Two Lovefts. There are fine caverns and recesscs as mongst the rocks ; one particularly which we took the opportunity of visiting, as it can only be entered at the ebb of the spring tide. It is very spacious, beauti- fully arched, and composed of granite rocks finely veined with alabaster, which the imagination may easily form iato a semblance of a female figure, and is, of course, the Nereid of the grotto. We wished to stay longer, but our friends hurried us away, lest the tide should rush in, which it is supposed to do from sub- terraneous caverns, as it fills before the tide coyers the sand of the adjacent beach. I was particularly affected with the face of two lovers (a young gentleman and lady from Clifton) whose friends were hete for the cake of sea bathing. ‘I'hey stole out early in the morning by thems selves, and strolled along the beach till they came to this grotto, which, being then empty, they entered. They admired the strata of rock leaning in different di- rections. They admired the incrustation which covers part of the sides, exactly resembling honey-comb; various shells imbedded in the rock; the sea anemone spreading its purple fringe—an animal flower clinging to the rocks. ‘They ad» mired the first efforts of vegetation in the purple and green tints occasioned by the lichens and other mosses creeping over the bare stone. They admired these to- gether ; they loved each other the more for having the same tastes; and they taught the echoes of the cavern to repeat the vows which they made of eternal con- stancy. Inthe meantime the tide was coming in; of this they were aware, as they now and then glanced their eyes on the ‘waves which they saw advancing at a distance; but, not knowing the nature of the cavern, they thought themselves safe ; when on a sudden, as they were in the furtherest part of it, the waters rash~ ed in from fishures in the rock with terri- ble roaring. ‘They climbed from ledge to ledge of the rocks, but in vain ; the waters rose impetuously, and at length filled the whole grotto. Their bodies were found the next day, when the tide was out, re- clining on a shelf of rock ; he in the tend- er attitude of supportiog ber in the very highest accessible part, and Icaning his head in her lap so that he must have died firat. Poor lovers —Mrs. Barbauld’s Life and Works. Governor Vance as a Grange Lecturer. We knew that Gov. VANCE was good in hand- ling almost every subject as a lecturer, but did not know that he could) prove a success as an instructor to the Patrons of Husbandry. Sle addressed, by invitation, the quarterly conven- tion of the Atlantic Council Patrons of I1us- bandry, held in Goldsboro on Thursday last, and we learn from those who heard him that he made a most happy success, giving to the farmers such practical suggestions and views best calculated to improve their general condi- tion. The Newbern Republican-Cow ier thus speaks of Gov. Vance’s effort : . “The Council was addressed for nearly two hours by Hon. Zebulon B. Vance. The sub- ject was rather a hard one for the Governor as politics had to be entirely eschewed. The Jirst half hour was rather uninteresting, but finally he began to get warm in the harness and he waded in, and thoroughly discussed the subject of capital and labor; he showed that there was plenty of capital owned in our State if only utilized, urged upon the farmers the necessity of kindness towards laborers, especially the colored race ; explained to the Convention that inflation of the currency would not help the people of this State, who do not’ make the pro- per exertion to produce something to buy the money with ; he was io favor of such emigra- gration as would bring their families with suffi- cient means to enable them to commence farming and manufacturing ; said the brains of some of the people of North Carolina needed more guano than did the lands; (applause) ; he urged upon them the neccessity of more and better educa- tion, and the necessity of making the house and the farm attractive in order to encourage its further improvement, &c., Upon the whole it was one of the best speeches we have heard for some years. Such senuments as he advanced has a tendency to create an era of good feeling.” ---WHOLE |NO. 1934 Horersce Murper Near WELDON. —We learn that on Wednesday night a horrible murder was perpetrated near the Seaboard railroad ret pil that crosses the Roanoke River at Weldon. . Mrs. S. Pressey, an old man who has long and faithfully eerved his company, as watchman, at a late hour ot the night was called out of his house by two nes groes who had a horse, which they told him they wished him to put in his stable. The old man complied with the request, thinking they were going to walk over the bridge to Weldon, he being on the Northampton side. Soon after one of the wretches went to the old man’s house and told his wife that her busband said “send him his pocket book,” and at that mo- ment the report of a gun was heard. She suspected something was wrong and re~ fused to give him the pocket-book and he departeds She looked out now, and saw her husband coming toward the house and on reaching it fell in the door, cry~ ing out, he was killed. He was shot through the neck, and expired in a few moments, but before he did died gave the names of his murders, to his wife, avd others, who came to the house, hearing the alarm. On Lhursday a party who went purs suit, captured the two negroes, charged the murder. Onc of them, Auetin Hill made a desperate attempt to escape, and for his folly, was shot down, but was not killed. Both of the murderere have been lodged in Northampton jail.— Sentinel. lates) Sela pean A Sweet Thing on Jokes, HAVE YOU SEEN TOM COLLINS ? If you baven’t, perhaps you had better do so, and as quick as you can, for he is talking about you ina very rough man- ner—calling you hard names, and alto- gether saying things about you that are rather calculated to induce people to be- lieve that there is nothing you wouldn’t steal short of a red hot stove. Other lits tle things of that nature he is openly speaking of in public places, and as a friend —although of course we don’t wish to make you feel uncomfortable—we think you ought to take some notice of them and of Mr. ‘om Collins. This is about the cheerful substanee of a very sucecssful practical joke which has been going rounds of the city in the past week. It is not to this manor born, bat belongs to New York, where it was play- ed with immense success to crowded hous- es until it played out. It seems singular- that such a flimsy affair could take in and do for anybody ; but it has, and of course the most unlikely to be chargeable witb an offensive act in any way were gener- ally selected as the victims. They bit like gars after a rain, somewhat after this fashion : Smith met Jones. Says Smith to Jones, “Have you seen ‘T'om Collios %” “No. Why? Who is Tom Collins “Well, I don’t know much abont him, but he has heen saying some very harsh thinks about you,’* and so on, according to the fertile imagination of Smith. “Where did he say this? Where can I find the fellow? Condemn him I'll shoot him if he don’t take it back.” “Well he said it befor: a dozen men” (at King’s or Bessehe’s, or Jacoby’s or McCullough’s or any where.) Off the victim goes to one of these fa- vorite resorts, and somebody there— ‘Thompson—who is in the joke with Smith, tells Jones that he saw Tom Col- lins at the Southern about haif an hour or so ago, and off Jones goes to the Southera, where he meets Brown and Brown tells him that he saw Collins at the Laclede not five minutes since, where he was re- peating these storics, and really Jones ought to take notice of them because the oftener they were repeated without denial from Jones, the more people would be likely to believe them, and go forth. By this time poor Jones is all ever fight, and of course is so much the better fun, and he goes on until he “smells the mice,” or knocks somebody down. The “sel” acted in a dozen different ways with as many men, and in more than one instance the climax was ludicrous iu the extreme. At one time Jones—let us still call him—went in asking everybod if they had scen that son of the sea cook Tom Collins ? “Yes,” said a Smith No. 2. he was here not two minutes since; ob, there he is now across the street,”’ pointed to a man notoriously on his mas- cle. Jones looked at the supposed ‘Tom Collins for a second or two. He didn’t look like a gift at a rough and tamble, and be had never seen the man in hie life be- fore ; but he had been circulating such in- famous falsehood that life wasn’t worth living unless he could knock Tom Collins down there and then, and kick the lies down his Tom’s throat with the toes of bis number seyens. Jones went across the street, and said by way of gentlemanly warning, “You are ‘I‘om Collins,”’ and before the man of muscle could explain Jones pasted him a hot one over the head, and was econtinu- ing the pasting business when the man of muscle went into Jones on his own ac~ count with this remark: “Well my name’s not Tom Collins, bat I’m just as good a man as ‘I'om Colline, and if you owe j'om anything come and pay me, I’m all here. ‘lhis is my racket, stanger.” If people had not interferred and cx- plained the joke, possibly Jones won! have been more than ever sorry abe Tom Collins.

Late on yesterday we were hauded a cir- cular, bearing the above heading, and issu- ed under the signature ofune A. N, Smith, Esq who signs himself **President of the Conven- tion which was held at Foard’s Mill on the 13th inst... Mr. Smith is therefore the os- tensible author: and his cirealar is worthy of notice only from the fact that he assumes to speak for Davie. Whether he does or not isa question. Ye will. nevertheless, give to Davie this one notice. In our last paper we endeavored to give a clear and trnthful statement of the causes which prevented a selection of a candidate for Senator. We did not attempt to give the exact proceedings; and as oar article was writteo in the interest of peace and har- mony, with a view of bringing about, if pos- sible, a reconciliation between the diseor- | dant elements of the two couuties, and the | nomivation of acandidate on whom all might | agree, we purposely left out some things that we thought might tend to irritate or alienate the people of the two counties. We were jeareful to gay nothing that would further | widen the breech between the counties ; and | we had begun to flatter ourself that we had |succeeded, But we were mistaken. Mr. | Smith has discovered a mare's nest, and then he wants to appear in print: ence, his j circular which justice to Davie aud self-im- ' posed duty require him to issue. This cir- culaz is intended as a rejoinder to our article ‘inthe last Watchman on the same subject. | The first paragraph reads : “As President of the Convention which i} was held at Poard’s Millon the 13th inst., I feel called upon in justice to the delegates froin Davie to give my recollection of the proceedings of that Convention. — Especial- ily, do [ consider this my duty in view of the ‘fact that the Secretary of the Convention, ((Mr. Stewart.) has seen proper to give i through his editerial columns of the Watch jman, a statement which is greatly at vari- | auce, withthe facts as they transpired on that oeeasion.”’ | . . . ! Now, this cirentlar of which thea bove par- pagraph is apart. in addition tothut of +*Presi- | } dent’? Smith, has the siguatures of four other | gentlemen of Davie. (Right here we desire to iS | | oXpressonr surprise that President Simith did | not secure moré uames ont ot the large and | intelligent delegation from Davie present. Surely, if he only has stated facts he conld have gotten a greater number to say so.) | We would feel very bad if we could per- | tice. or that we had given throagh “the | Watchman. « statement which is greatly at | variance with the facts as they transpired on thatocevsion.”’ Su faras the truth ofthe state- ments we have made is concerned, or of thuse suade ourself that we had done Davie injus- | | | which we shall here make, we are perfectly | willing to leave that with the gentlemen from both counties present. Befure publishing our previous article, we conferred with sev- eral gentlemen of the highest character, for lfeate and hunesty, as to the correctness of | : our statements, and every one agreed with ’ , U8 that we had given an {mpartial and truth- j ful statement of the facts, But, as we have [said before, we are willing to leave the ques- ition of veracity which President Sinith has - cid ties there, of agree that we don’t know a Da- vie man from a Rowan man. ae? In regard to the committee of twelve-—Mr. Smith is very anxious that this matter ehould be brought forward. Well, we don’t charge that President Smith did any thing wrong. Bat Rowan men say that the President is a- gain mistaken. They say that it was first proposed to appoint a committee composed of six friends of the aspirants, and nut six gentlemen from each county ; but tnat Presi- dent Smith got it mixed up in submitting the question. That nine of this committee were Price men and only three Crawford men ; that a majority of these names was suggested by the friends of Capt. Price, and so notorious was the fact, that the Price men were suggesting the committee’ and having it appointed to smit them, that the Crawford men cried out atthetime—-No suggestions ! — Nu prompting! and resolved before the com- nittee was read out to oppose its; President Smith may have thought he was acting all right, and we do not charge he was know- iogly acting in bad faith toward Mr. Craw- ford. Yet it is strange tha! be should have received and acted upon the soggestiuns of the Price men and overlooked or ignored those of Crawtord’s friends. The reason the Rowan delegation would not agree to receive the report of the com- mittee of twelve and act upon its suggestions, is that they believed it to have been packed, whether it was done intentionally or not.— This was a good and valid reasun, toc. Da- vie would have acted just as Rowan did if she had entertained the same opinion as to the selection of said committee, or at least, it is to be presumed so. But why was this committee insisted up- on? Rowan opposed it from the start; and would never have agreed to its appointment, but for the fact, that the Secretary, presum- ing that the committee would be selected from an equal number of the friends of each aspirant, and desiring to expedite matters, came forward and expressed the hope that no fair minded man would oppose it. We were acting iu good faith, and would have hstened to the report of this committee, after it had acted, but forsthe fact that when we saw how the appointment was being made, and ventured to suggest the name of a Craw- ford man we were not heeded and a Price man was put dowu in his stead. The fact is this committee was insisted ap- on because Capt Price's friends had ascer- tained that Rowan was represented by dele- gates from but three or four of her townships. We do not believe, however, that the good people of Davie county, or that all her dele- gates to the Mill, would attempt to enforce a We hate to have to say this. yet itis true.— | # township was an respective townships ans were whjch were put to him by the Sectetas this way: Whois your choice for: 8 Who for Senator?

Crawford was ansolicited aad voluntary. it must be admitted that the case is tenfuld stronger in favor of our position: Fur then we have the imposing spectacle of seven of the largest townships unsoli- ited coming fur- ward in open convemtipn of the people of the county and proclaiming their unanimous preference fur a Senator. After this. it is to be presumed that but little effort was neces- sary to have seeured the whole number of townships for Capt Crawford. Taking this view of the case there could have been nu packiug. Yuodeed, no one wil'dare say that the very large Convention uur people held was packed in favor of anybody. Now, what about the Cunveation in Davie? We will not undertake co go as far as President Smith, and say that we know anything pos- sitively; but our people are somewhat anx- ious to know how the delegates from Davie were appointed. Who handed in the names, and in whose hand write werethey? And how was it that such gentlemen as R. Williams. Johu Clement, 5. J. Hanes, Esqrs.. and other gentlemen of the highest character who are not only natives of Davie, but who have passed their lives in building ap the county, were ignored? We know that therd are a large number of goud men in Davie, who would have accepted the position, and whom the people of Rowan would have supported cheerfully. But they, it seems, stood no chance before the Davie county Convention. Why? This question will giye certain gemlemen trouble yet, if they are not particular. President Smith has much to say aboat the action of our Conven- tien.

But this right was not eon- |ceded; whereupon, it devolved upon the | Convention to make a nomination regardless | of the claim of either county.” Mr. Bailey did not, nor did any ong else, show that Davie had the right tothe Senator | this year. We pressed this point, and their was not a gentleman on the hill who did or ‘could show any foundation for the so-called | the fact. | We invite the attention of delegates to the | following flippant statement of President | Smith : “After some confusion it was asceiained | that the Convention was not fully organized; ; and some geutiemen from Rowan inoved that the numes of the delegates and town-ships | of the tivo counties be called by the Secre- Davie readily assented to this propo- | Sition, and proceeded 1o hand in her list.— | For some reasou unknown to me a portion of the gentlemen from Ruwan (whether dele- gates or not I am not infurined.) objected to this course. Tu consequence of this failure to agree and amid some confusion, the ‘on. | Vention on inotion, took a recess for thirty | minutes. Upon the reassembling of the con- ; Ventiuo some gentleman from Rowan moved | that a committee of twelve, six from each | ) county be appointed by the Chair. whose business it should be to retire. consider, aud | report, a mode of vomiuating a Sevatur for j this District. Occupying the Chair, I felt it | ay duty to appoint the very best men on this committee, aud I did so. After some time | Spent in conference, the committee returued, land through their chairmau, Mr. Jas. A.

The question then was upon the adoption or tejection of the | Feport.” President Smith seems to bave grown | reckless in the above. He is simply mistak- (en when he says that a gentleman frym Row- |ta moved that the namesof the delegates and townships becalled, &e. It was a Davie /man, was jt vot, Mr. Snith? Tote fair.

Here we might leave the President. as the | remainder of his circular, is mere yerbosity, and just as reckless as the preceeding; but| ‘in order that he can have ro cause of com- plaint, we will give as much of his circular | jas possible. | After his stating the ‘facts, as we have | ; given them above, he proposes to instruct us ‘and the world in the mysteries of conven- | tious, parliamentary usage, and_ political | economy, generally ; and proceeds by asking and answering his own questions tohis entire satisfaction, no doubt, after a learned style: ‘In the first place, I will ask what is the object in holding a uominating convention? Is it not for the purpose of ascertaining the choice ofa majority of the members of the par- ty for the candidate? This is undoubtedly so. Then howis the end to be accomplished in this Senatorial District, being composed as it is, of the counties of Rowan and Davie, Rowan having eleven townships and Davie six? No body can suggest a fairer plan than to vote by townships; especially, when nine, a majority of seventeen are required to nominate. Sup- pose for instance the county of Rowan in con- } and Cupt. Crawford should receivesix, aud Mr. Price five. and suppose Davie county bad voted all six of her townships for Mr Price, will any unprejudiced mind contend that Capt. Craw- ford is the choice of the District, composed as it is of the two counties? I think not,” The propriety of voting by townships is not the question. It may have been fair to vote hy tuwuships, but this was not accord- ing to the usage which has obtained in the selection of a candidate for Senator bereto- fure. District Conventions have always hertofure voted by counties or accordiag to voting population. Capt. Price's friends wanted to adopt the new mode of voting by townships. because Rowan was not repres- ented by townships; and this was one reason why Rowan objected tothenew method, and another was that her d-legates were instruct- ed to vote for Capt. Crawford.* Bay hear President Smith - ‘‘But Mr Stewart will say that the. Rowan delegation was instructed. I deny the fact, and ask for the proof. There is certaiuly no record of the fact in the proceedings, as pub-- lished in Mr, Stewart’s own paper, the Watch- man: so far from it.I propose to show by those very proceedings that the Rowan conven: tion did not instruct her delegates. nor did she intend to do so.” This is very strong language, though it is merely the assertions of President Smith an- supported by facts. What are the facts ?— During the session of our county Convention some one arose and proposed when the dele- gates from the various townships retired to make their selection: for county officers, &c., that a vote be taken tuascertainthe chuice of the people for Senator. This was a ver- bal proposition, but it was adopted and acted upon. Jt was not submitted in writing and the Secretaries failed to note it in their re- port. When the delegates of the different town- hips returned to the hall. the name of each : , ; Notwithstanding Rowan did not have over | a half dozen delegates present authorized to | of Capt. Price, and after being fully aware | show that the action of his own county Con- measure so manifestly unfair and unjast. The) vention is much more valuerable than that ‘ : : . || fact that Mr. Price's warm friends did desire | to do it, is no evidence thatthe inasses of the | of ours. But we do not hold the good peu- ole of Davie county respousible for the in- discretion of a half do%en or so of imprudent. hot-headed partisins. The harmony of the party and the continued existence of good feeling between the people of Rowan and Davie are matters of to much importance to be endangered merely to gratify the sel- fish whims of any political aspirants. What- | ever damage has been done in this particu- lar is attributable to the action of a few men? We would not do anything or say | a word that would tend to produce heart-burn- ings or bitter feelings between the two counties and inthe whole of this matter, so fards we are personally concerned,swe have acted strietly upon our honest con¥iétions of duty. We be- lieved that we were ’ when we went to Foard’s Mill, and had no right to disregard said instructions. In assuming this position we have censared no oe for at ing with us. On the contrary, we have endeavored. to keep down high feeling, and we appeated in our last paper to the highly’ and respectable dele- gation of gentlemen from Davie, to ~ join. us in an effort to bring about harmony and cons cert of action. Presidnet Smith’s circular w notin a like spirit ; but is well calculated to | pet up bad feeling: and while we have en- deavored in this reply to avoid every thing in the least calculated to produce undue feeling, we regret that some of our remarks may be regarded pointed and harsh. But the existence, of differences of opinion between President Smith and ourself, or for that mat- ter, between any other two or three or dozen gentlemen, should not be allowed ‘o disturb the good feeling that has always existed be- of the two connties will nut permit it, and they should not. We say throw over board all the unreasonable and. factious, and let the people of the two counties come together like men determined to preserve our Conseryative organization. and peace, harmony and good feeling between our citizens. In conclusion, we possitively disavow any pre- juduce or bitter feeling in this matter. We felt called upon to take notice of President Smith’s circular, presented in the way it was, and we regret that space will not permit us to notice many other points, but as such discus- sions never result in any good, we dismiss it finally frown our columns, hoping in the mean- time that the good men of the two counties will take the matter in hand and bring order out of the present existing political chaos. Such an effort we will lend in our humble way, all the help we can. —_———~-—____. Goop News.—Nearly every cotton mill and other manufacturing. establish- ment in the Southern States, pat up since the war, is paying larger prices than are corresponding enterprises in New Engx land Especially is this the case with cotton mills. The reason is plain. An establishment which transforms the raw fabric into cloth where the fabric is raised should more than successfully compete with a similar establishment two or three hundred miles distant, especially in view of the fact that the cotton itself must be freighted a long distance from the fields to the mill over the same route, at a great expense for railroad traneportation to find a market.— Pomeroy’s Democrat. ae A Nrcro Rapes a White Girt In THIS CounTy.—A rape was committed this morning near Morrisville, in thie county, on a Miss Haley, by a negro mau named John Blake.

That was a small matter, but this bill to facilitate trial for libel is intolerable aud not to be borne. ‘This is the day of oppression and | humbug.

If we were making up a political alma- | vac we should say “look out for indepen- dent candidates about this time.” It is trae we know of not more than one iu our own party in this section of the State, but if the months of June and July pass away without others having made their appear~ ance, it will be as old Governor Swain used to say, “a remarkable fact’ worthy of record. Just now the independent candidate disease seems to be spending its force in the Radical camp, where it is raging like the big measels in a regiment of new sol- diers.

To be sure these effects are nothing new. The great vege- table invigorant and its cures have been before the people for more than twenty-five years, and in every year of the twenty-five its popularity has increased and its sale has become larger. Yet there are no doubt many thousands of in- telligent citizens who have never had an op- portunity of observing for themselves the sur- prising changes which this unequalled tonic -and alterative produces in systems which seem to be hopelessly broken, and in cases of disease which are not amenable to ordinary remedies. Probably many of these regard the statements made in relation to the sanitary properties of the Bitters with some degree of incredulity. Would that all such skeptics could see with their own eyes what the medicine is doing for the sick and feeble everywhere, what a staff of life it is proving 40 the aged and infirm, what a help in time of trouble to feeble women auff- ering from the complaints and disabilities pe- caliar to the sex, what a protection to health and life in malarious districts, what a panacea for languor and depression, what a specific for all diseases in which the system requires to be vitalized and sustained.

How touchingly beautiful this is!— Three little New Hampshire girls, not long since, lost their mother by death. Hearing that a lady friend of the family was dying, these three little children went to their grandmother, called her aside, and whispered in her ear! ‘Mrs. is dying, and we want you to go to tell her to give our best love to our mother,” Woo 1s SHE?—Who is the girl Helen Blazes, to whom the boys 80 often appeal in sudden pain or peril’s darkest hour? A day or two ago a young man trod on a piece of orange-peal, and sat down on the avement, at the same time exclaiming, “Helen Blazes !'" Aud that same after- poon the young man struck his toe against a brick, and taking his foot up in his arms, he, too cried, “Helen Blazes !"”— There may be such a patron saint of hmt fn the calendar, bnt we can’t find her there.—Courier Journal. When several men meet to discuss finance politics or refigion each comes with his fixed prejudices to money, men and creeds, Each one tries to convince all the others to his way of thinking, and as a result each goes home more confounded than when he entered the in- quiry. Let but the Spirit of Truth, with all its powers, come into such meeting. Let all those who have had convictions submit them to the test of truth. It is not the triumphs of indivi- dual judgment which ever convince the many. It is only when the people’s judgments and will are convicted by all-powerful truth. The sur- render of opinion is then unattended by any humiliation; it is truth, love, wisdom, God, that has the triumph. Antiquity of the Scriptures. Few of us ever stop to thiuk how old the Bible is. Yet “the Scriptures are be- lieved by candid critics to contain the most ancient forms of truth now known to men.” With the aid of chronological tables any one may easily make profitable comparison between the antiquity of the books and that of other writings and events. The Scriptures contain the only anthentic history of the world before the Flood. We find in the Pentateuch one or two etanzas of poetry composed in the antedeluvian period. ‘The Hebrews stat- nes were enacted a thousand years before Justinian reformed the Roman jurispru- dence. In the Bible we have the record of chartered rights secured to the people more than two thousand years before the Magna Charta. What a sensation would be produced if the first chapter of Genesie sbould appear for the first time in one of the newspapers to-morrow! Yet there can be no doubt that chapter contains the oldest writing, twenty five hundred years before the invention of printing Xenop- hon’s record of the conversation of Soe- rates, in his Memborabilia seems an old book to us, yet similar topics were dis~ cussed in Ecclesiastes six hundred years before. Tbe works of Tacitus, Plutarch, and Quinuilian are not modern; but the books of the New Testament are older than they. As to the jbook of Job, its age is beyond conjecture. ‘hose who make it as modern as they can are com- pelled to place its origin at least one thou- sand years before Homer. When Priam was King of ‘Troy, Job was of remotean- tiqaity. The name of Alexander has no modern sound for us, yet when Alexs ander iuvaded Syria the Book of Job might have been read before him as the work of an author more time honored then than the name of Alexander is now. The writings of Confuius are modern when compared with most of the Bible; and the most that the Hindoos can justly claim for their sacred books the Vedas, ia that they were written five handred years after the death et Moses. The Koran is a hook fresh from the press compared with tlic Seriptares.— Dr. Upson. COtton Factories for ‘North Car-| Olina." J og Facts are constanly arising to prove that the South is destined in: the fatarey to be the seat for the manufacture of heavy cotton goods.—Georgia has long uanu- factured cotton gooda successfully and profitably, and South Carolina is waking up to the importance of building cotton factories. A correspondent of the N. Ys: Journal of Commerce writing from Lang- ley Mills, near Aikin, South Carolina says: A manufacturer of cotton yarns from Manchester, England, after looking "Piedmont “Air Line Railway.” Richmond & Danville, Richm £ 4d & 2 Danvilie R.

Second, experts claim that in our Southern clime, cotton works to better advantage as high as ten per cent.— Third, the reclamation on false packed and damaged cotton ia direct and easy. Fourth, freights on inanufaetured goods are less in proportion than on bulky and hazardous bales of cotton. Yarns can be delivered in New York from this vicinity from 60 to $0 centa per hundred. Tifth, an abundant supply of operative labor at low rates and consequent exemptions from strikes. Northern Superintendents Southern Mills admit the superiority of our factory hands, the whites, and the ease with which they are coutrolled. The average wages paid at the Saluda mills is $142.82 per annum. Sixth, the mildness of the climate enables the operatives to enjoy a larger propartion of comforts on agivea amount of wages. In a cold climate a larger propuration of carbon- aceous food requisite, which costs more than fairnaceous food, nor do the houses for operatives require to be so expensive in the colder regions. Lumber of the best kind costa only ten to twelve dollars a thousand. ‘The short winters require less fuel.—Land is cheap, and each household can have its garden, cow and pigs.— Seventh, there is a home demand for the goods—the larger country stores keep supplies of yarn for sale a3 regularly as ‘they do sheetings. Eighth, by purchas- ing seed cotton from planters and ginning it at the mill, the lint is in a better con~ dition for working than after it has been compressed into bil-3, and the expense-of packing the cotton, bagging, ties and handling would be saved, as also the ex pense of running it through the picker. The wastage cotton undergoes in different ways has been cstimated at one-tenth to one eight of a bale. Could the cntire crop of cotton be converted into yarns at the South, and shipped off in that form, it would add one hundred and fifty mil- lion dollars anually to the wealth of this portion of the United States. Foreign milla would adapt their machiiery to working up the yarns instead of the raw cotton. If bat one quarter of the crop could be thus converted, it would be a great blessing to the Sou h, and enable numbers of women and children that are now dependent on others to support them selves.” JAS.
