The New York papers are advocat- ing a new thought in respect to homi- cides who escape the gallows on the plea of insanity, to wit: that they be shut up in prison for life, on the ground that society is entitled to pro- tection against the mischief of insane persons. The Scientific American goes a step in advance of this by advot&ting (some months ago) that the breed or race of all such as nay be deemed constitu- tional predisposed to crime shall be stopped, and the bodies of such persons be reserved in prisons or work-houses, &c., for scientific experiments. “That’s a ten strike.” HANDSOME RECOGNITION. We learn by a private letter from China Grove, that the»good people of Ebenezer Church, a few days before Christmas, made very handsome dona- tions to their pastor, the Rev. W. Kiwsaui, sending to him quanti- ties of the good things of life, thus cheering and blessing the faithful man and his family, and doing and getting good for themselves all at the same time, On Friday before Christmas he was visited by a surprise party representing Lutheran Chapel congre- gation, (whom he also serves as pastor), bringing in waggons and buggies sacks of wheat, corn and flour, bun- dles of sugar and coffee, potatoes, chickens, articles of dress, leather for shoes, &., &c. The good man’s heart was touched, and he lacked words to express his feelings for such evidences of love. We have heard of nothing this Christmas more creditable to the ac- tors than that related of these two churches—creditable to both people ' and pastor. ———e The Christmas holidays, ever and new year fairly entered upon, the ac- tive business of life will be speedily resumed. The farmer, the mechanic, the merchant, the teacher, and the professional man, all in their respeo- tive pursuits, will begin to think and and responsibilities of his position, and to calculate the chances of his business - prospects. ~ Very soon all will be diligently employed again, and thé great life contest will echo and re-echo from one end.of the eoun- try to the other. The present hour seems more propitious than usual for the scarcity of money to the contrary, notwithstanding. There is just now a-suspension of some of the usual dis- turbing causes. Politics—our coun- try is a nation of politicians—slumbers quite profoundly. True, the news- papers here and there are trying to wake it to life, but the people are heedless of these efforts, and would much -prefer-to think and act on other subjects. “Nineteen men out of twenty in the South feels so well pleased in the confident belief that the days of Grant and: his party of rogues is vir- tually’at an end, and that we shall soon see 'a good and honest adminis- tion of public affairs re-instated, that they are prone to rest, and “let well dential election, which comes off this this Sumaier ; or if, they have, regard that of watching. The grand politi- cal movements of the year have al- ready commenced, and. i¢ ‘will require good attention to keep ‘up with and "| understand them, RO The Proposed Constitutional Amendments, Vv. ‘To rae Eprrons or tHe Watcnman: The Constitutional Convention passed oue ordinance, and only one, proposing to amend Article VI of the Constitution, relating to ouf- rage and eligtbility to office. , j Section 1 of said Article now reads as fol- lows: “Sec. 1. Every male person, born in the United States, and every male person who has been naturalized, twenty-one years old or up- ward, who shall have resided in the State twelve months next preceding the election, and thirty days in the county in which he offers to vote, shall be deemed an elector,” As proposed to be amended, the section will read thus; “Bec. 1. Every male person, born in the United States, and every male person who has been naturalized, twenty one-years old or up- ward, who shall have resicted in the State twelve months next preceding the election, and ninety days in the county in which he offers to vote, shall be dcemed an elector. [Bul no person, who, upon conriction or co. f-rsien in open court, shall be ndjudyed guilty of feiony, or of any other crime infirmous by thetaws of this State, and hereafter committed, shall be deemed aa clector, tn- less such person shall be restored to the rights of citizenship in a mode préserided by law.) The present acction requires a residence for an elector of fterive months in the tute and thirty days in the connty—and confers the privi- lege of vuting npon all netive and naturulized male citizens trenty one yeare of age. The amendment changes the tine of residence in the county from thirty to minety daya—and also denies ihe right of suffrage to all persons who shall be adjadyed gnilty of felony or other infamous crime—wiiich shai! be committed af- ter the first day of January 1877. The amend- ment is not retrospective, but entirely prospective in its operation. All persops who are now en- titled to vote, whether they . have heretofore committed felonies or other infamous crimes, or not, will continue to exercise all the rights of a voter—and no person shal) ever be depriv- ed of this privilege, untess he shall forfeit his right to vote by committin ; a felony or some other infamous crime, after the first day of January 1877, when the amendments proposed to the Constitution by the late Convention will go into operation, if they shall be previously rati- fied by the people, on the Tuesday next .after the first Monday in November, A. D. 1876.— And all persons who shall be thus disqualified from the exercise ofthe rights of citizenship, shall remain so disqualified, until they shall be re- stored to their rights as citizens in some mode to be prescribed by law. The amendment will not affect those who shall commit felonies or other crimes before the first day of January 1877—although they ‘may be convicted after that date. The felony or other crime must be commit- ted after that time—or it cannot have the effect to deprive any one of his right to vote. Thia amendment is not liable to any good objection. A voter is required to reside in the coanty, in whieh he proposes to vote, for ninety days, instead of thirty, as now. ‘This change was_made by the Convention in order to pre vent the colonization of voters, on the gve of an election. In the majority of the@tates of the Union, the time required for an elector to re- side in tre county is from four to six months. Under our old Constitution, until the adoption of the free-sufrage amendment, a county resi- dence of twelve months was required in this State. No fair-minded man, ought to object to this change, as it bears with equal justice and impartiality upon all; and its only object is to maihtain the purity of the ballot box, Qf course, none but the most obstinate, har- ‘dened and inveterate felons and thieves ought to object to the denial of the privilége ofvoting to those, who shall, after thé jirut day of January, 1877, be adjudged guilty of felongor other infam- ous crime—committed also after'that date. The Convention neither proposed nor adop- ted any amendmeaty requiring an intelligence or property qualificaizon for votiny-although it will be remembered, that the Repablicans, in the campaign last Summer, that the Demo- erats would do both these things, if they suc- ceeded in controlling the Contention. JOHN 8. HENDERSON. A Republican Legislator Killed by a Democratic Editor. A especial from New Orleans, under date of the 28th inst., says: “E. L. Pierson, a Republican member of the Legislature from the Parish of Natichitoches was killed on Sunday even- ing by James Cosgrove, editor of the Vindicator, a Demoeratic paper. Pierron was formerly an active Democratic politi~ cian, bat for the last two years has acted | with the Republicans. Since that time Coagrove has commented on Pierson in his paper. A few weeks ago Pierson sent a challenge to Cosgrove which tie latter refused to receive. Pierson then publiab- ed him as a slanderer' and coward. On Sanday night Cosgrove met and shét him in the bead, Pierson wae the law partner of the Hon. Wm. M. Levy, Demoeratie Congressman from the Fourth district. His death gives the Democrats the cou-~ trol of the Legislature on joint ballot.” When a California’ woman defeated a lion in a hand-to-hand combat the neigh- then aé uiere formalities of small in- bors were greatly astonis but her basbaad qaictly tomarked, that’s | devil. . ; 7 the] fraction in liability to error or nvolved number of dollars by days of interest it, there is mistake, figures: cent—Multiply an Six: per uy. 4 y given Sonus true interest on six cent. ‘Hight pet cont —Malsiely ag v- en amount by the sum ys aa nee of nal for the i sum for Soeahedk a eight per cent. and divide by 45.

Never make as- sertions about her you think untrue, or allusions that you feel she herself would blush to hear. When you meet with men who do not scruple to make use of 8 woman’s name in a reck and dnprincipled manner, shun them, for they are the worst members of the community—men lost to every sense of honor, every feeling of humanity. Many a good and worthy woman’s character has been ruined and her heart broken by a lie manufactured some villian and repeated where it should not have been, and in the pres-|- ence of those whose |ittle judgment could not deter them from circulating the foul and damning report. Aslan- der is soon propagated ; and the small- est thing derogatory to woman’s char- acter will fly on the wings of the wind, and magnify as it cireulates, until its monstrous weight crushes the poor unconscious victim. Respect the name of woman, for your mothers and sisters are women, and as you would have their lives unembittered by the slanderer’s topgue, heed the ill that your own words may bring upon the mother, the sister, or the wife of some fellow creature. es The Birth of the Centennial—The New Year Welcomed by the Firingof Cannon, dec. The Centennial Year was ushered in here by the firing of cannon and the ring- ing of bells. Many of our citizens, not being aware that a programme had been arrayed for the oceasion, were at first startled by the booming of the heavy gun upon the midnight air; and, being so sad- deuly aroused from their slumbers, and by sucb an unusual and unexpected pro- cess, were ready to believe that a tremea- dous explosion of some sort had taken lace. A moment’s reflection, however, Ranch to their drowsy minds the fact that it was the birth-night of the Centen- nial of American Independenee, and that the year of 1876, destined to fill so im- portant a page in the bistory of the coun- try, had dawned upon us. The firing of the eannon and the ring- ing of the Market bell, the occasional ringing of Church belle where wateh- meetings were being held, the barking of dogs, rendered riproarious by the unusual din at what would generally be termed sach an unreasonable hour, the crowing of chickens, the occasional yells of ram- bling rowdies and street-walkers, and, finally, the exciting cries of “fire,” and the sound of the alarm bell, seemed alto- gether to make the last moments of the old year and the first of the new one any- thing but calm and serene. The cannon firing, which was by the authorities, was under the immediate di- rection of Mr J N VanSoelen, The number of guns fired was thirty-six, the interval between each discharge being about two minutes. — Wil, Siar. - Wet Dove.—Happy ie that human being who has the tact to doa able thing beautifully.

The good people of WaveHTew™, near Galem,as we learn from the Press; had # merry day op Christmas in various amusements, among which-was a sport-called “rolling.” . Some of qur readers may not understand it without ap explanation : “Rolling” a wheelbarrow at a stake,set up 50 or 60 yards distant, the roller being blind-folded. The man who carried his “wheelbarrow nearest the atake won the prise— a fine turkey or pair of fowls. * One of our College students was walk- ing up Main street in that pompous atylg, for which all G. students are pro- verbial, with a badge of the **Phi” society swinging to the lapel of his coat, flashing go.- , deo rays in every direction, and blinding for a moment persuns that chanced to be ia the angle of reflection; It was truly imposing.

The Scient/ic American proposes to] sabsijinte electricity or lightuing for the gallows, as .a-mode of capital puwishmens, in order to prevent the revolting scenes tometigpes enacted at public executions- This powerful'agent, now so completely and conveniently under control, would, no doubt, do its work far quicker than the gallows, and much more weatly.

Babcock is now immensely rich and bas an elegant cottage at Long Brauch, bev sides the house which he owns here, bur when he came to Washingtou as Grant's protege and Private Secretary, he was not worth a dollar outside of bis pay as au officer in the army. There ie vo doubt but that he was deeply implicated in the Works, which were investigated last year by Congress, and no one has forgotten how the majority of the Congressional Committee of lnquiry, who were Repub- licans; ‘ endeavored —without whitewash the whole affair. Indeed, trails were discovered leading directly to the doors of the White House, buat the Demo- cratic minority were powerless, and mat- ters could not be pashed to the end. Now things are different, and she people of the country can bave the eatisfaction of seci Viose who plunder them punished. Grant ie determined to ae Babeock if possible, and vo peine will spared to gain the desired’end. It is bard to tell why Babcock is-such a favorite with Mrs. Graot, and the eo t family; be is notat all distinguis in ap nce, and a stranger would beyond a Soate re- gard him as aon ordinary aod common looking man. Babcock, however, is a favorite of for- tnae.

A Remedy that has made its Mark. Success is the meed of excellence. The truth of this bas never been” more forcibly exemplified than by the triumphant. career of Hostetter’s Stomaco Bitters. No sooner did the people discover the genuine merits of that supreme invigorantand corrective than they hastened to stamp it with the seal of popular- ity. The press and medical profession speed- ily followed inthe wake of the public, and | emphatically endorsed it. ‘Thus from the rvery outset the success of the Bitters as a remedy and preyentivo was an established fact, and a degree of popularity which it often takes proprietary medicines years to attain, was achieved almost at astride by the ther new preparation. Since that time every suc- cessive year has witnessed fresh accessions to the favor with which the Bitters were early regarded, and the area of its popularity is no longer confined tothe United States, but in- cludes the British Provinces ‘in North Amer- ica and the West Indies, South America, Mexico, portione of Europe and Austrailia That it is not only a remedy for dyspepsia, constirpation, biliousness, arinary and unerine complaints, nervousness and debility, but also a preventive of those, maladies to which air and.water, impregnated with miasma, give birth, bas been nowhere so strongly evi- denced as in those regions where climatic conditions unfavorable to health exist, and where the Bitters have been long and con- stautly tested. To call this superb cordeal a remedy that has made its mark. cannot we think be regarded as boasting, since there is probably no proprietary remedy more widely known, aniversally respected end emphatically endorsed than these Bitters.

About 8:15 o’clock last evening there was consid- erable discussion in the store of Mr. Mecke about the execution of the three _— on December 17th. Guski he wondered how they felt when they hanged, and went into the were ice-house ss closed the door. He found a piece of rope, not over three fbet long, which’ had been doubled to hold quarters of” meat to the kooks. He made a running loop of this rope and slipped the noose over his head. The ice-box was about six feet high, and rows of hooks were W given are selected from the | most interesting of the papers read. VENTILATING BY MACHINERY: Mr; Carl Pfeiffer said, in substance, that, through the difference of from 30°. to 40° outer and inner *| air, a sufficient ventilation in an apart- ty }ment may be obtained in winter, but inmer, or fall. In seasons it will be necessary to resort to mechanical means, which the best authorities consider generally to be nearer perfect than any other ven- tilating system. Mr. Pfeiffer thought that owners of tenement houses should be forced to supply proper ventilatin machinery which should be loca out of the reach of the tenants. A NEW ARGUMENT FOR TEETOTAL- LARS. Dr. Hitchcock suggests a new raid on the liquor dealers, for causes which will add a fnovel argument to those already ev by total abstinence ad- vocates. e vital statistics of the United States, he says, show a mor- not in spri su ee net oa near thetop. Guski was about ve feet six Inches tall, and must have risen on his toes in order to slip . loop over one ofthe hooks. He fin, i succeeded, however, to let his wei, fall upomthe noose. The floor of the ice- box was slip with , and after he had his weight on his nex he could not recover himself. His lea only drew the noose tighter, and in a very short time he became unconscious, The tightness of the noose prevented Guski from calling for help. Mr. Mecke wanted Gus}* come out. Receiving no answ he went to the entrance and threw pen the door. He was nearly para.rzed with alarm at beholding Guski hb: ‘¢- ing from the hook. His face as livid, and his swolen tongue protruded from his mouth. His eyeg were wide open. Recovering his presence of mind, Mr. Mecke lifted up the hang- ing man and slipped the loope off the hook, d Gaski out of the ice- box, and laid him on the floor of the store. The rope had tightened around the neck so hard that it had nearly cut through the flesh. Finding no signs about ten minutes after he had enter-|_ ed the ice-box, and called to him * | tality of from 7 to 16 cent tracea- ‘a to the use of alcoholic drinks.

"4" FINANCIAL EQUIVALENT OF DISEASE. A remarkable paper on this subject a3 read by Dr. Beujamin Lee. The object was to determine the loss sus- tained by thecity of Philadelphia in dollars and cents through the epidemic ‘which occurred there in the winter of 1812. Dr, Lee calculates the loss by diminution of travel and traffic on the railways, and the loss to hotels, to merchants, and to business generally. He also computs the loss due to sick- ness and diminished production and by death. Hesums up his calcula- tions as follows: Expenses incurred in care of sick, $203,879 ; loss by sick- ness (time), $1,072,065 loss ; by disa- bility (time aud expenses), $10,000,- of consciousness. Mr. Mecke called to his assistance, and in a few minute. Dr. Weber was on the spot. G sk. was stri » and his body was r.'' bed wi of animal warmth. Meanwhile Dr. Weber pronounced the man dead. The use of electricity was suggested, and a strong current was pa ved through thegreat nerve centres. There was a momentary quiver, but without the desired result. Coroner Wdltman was summoned, and a careful post mortem examination is to be mad THE RATTLESNAKDE’S POISON.

The story, is of course, improbable ; | but the error of your statement is very clearly shown by the following experi- ments by Mitchell with the venom of that reptile. He says that - is diffi- cult to conceive of the singular of the venom of the rattlesnake with- out carefully conducted experimental research, 6r of the tenacity with which its powers are preserved in the presence of violent chemical agents and ex- tremes of heat and cold.

They are not waiting for the Keely motor in Paris. An engineer of Mans, M. Amede Rollee, has patented a self- sropelling carriage which simply o steam. He recently are from Mans to Paris, a distance of two hun- dred and forty miles, in eighteen hours, his carriage weighing four tons, and carrying twelve men. He whizzed through Paris in daylight, and attract- ing the attention of everybody except the horses, who seemed to regard the carriage with no suspicion whatever. Inceed, the horses probably wondered in their hearts why such a machine had not been invented before. M. Rollee guides his carriage as he would a horse—sitting in front. The boiler is placed at the back, and there are four cylinders placed two-by-two be- tween the four wheels. The Parisians, who go crazy over every new sensa~ tion, expect to see their streets full of steam carriages soon of all sorts, and we hopé that their expectations will be realized. The horse has done his duty long and faithfully, and he is’ entitled to sit down and take a rest for a while.—Chioago Times. Pe A German Paper on Reform.

We would recommend that this law be repealed, and, if neccesary, again re-enacted after- nime-tenths of them shali have been destroyed. _——~ > —__— Sir Walter Scott was a great lover of dogs, and always bad many fine ones around him. One day, in conversing with a friend, he said: “T'bose dogs,’ is to two fine hounds lying on the h, “anderstand every word | say.”’ The friend expreesed his doubts of this statement. Sir, Walter, to prove it, took up a book and began to read aloud: “I | have two lasy, good for nothing dogs, | who lie by the fire and sleep, aud let tl. | cattle ruin my garden.” Both dogs in- stantly sprang up, and ran out of the room, and finding no cattle in the garden, returned and lay down by the fire. The baronet again read from the book the eame story. Again the dogs ran ont and again returned disappointed, aud lay down. The third time their master told the story, when instead of going out, the dogs came up to him, looked in bis face, whined and wagged their tails, as much asto say, “You have made gawe of us twice, you cannot do it the third time.” AGRICULTURAL. | SHOWS OF CHRISTMAS BEEF. A friend has handed us a copy of of the Daily (Toronto, Canada) Leader of the 23rd Dec., which reports son. extraordinary slaughtered beef, mut- ton, calves, &c., exhibited in the markets for Christmas. Thé markets were gaily decorated with evergreens and flowers, and the meats ornamented with rosettes and artificial flowers. Very little attention seems to be giv- en to hogs by the Canadians as com- pared with beef cattle and sheep. What will the neglector of sheep in this section think of a side of mutton which measured seven inches from the inside of the ribs through to the outer surface? He will probably say shere4 was never such a sheep slaughtered, but yet it is true. One man had ‘i.+3 prize sheep the dressed weight of each being about 300 ths., besides forty- five lambs, all fat as butter balls. Fat things was the grand idea of this exhibition. Every article was loaded with fat; and when we state that one of the calves in the show had been fed on eggs and cream the reader may form some idea of the painstak- ing and expense gone to in preparing ing Christmas meats by the Canadians. Every market in the city was a grand show. The slaughtered meats bore the name of the raiser or feeder, and and the name of the purchaser. The list is too long and tedious to count. There must have been over a thous- and slaughtered animals in the mark- ets. Among the rest we notice a number of racoons, oné of which is de- scribed as “a smal! mountain of fat.” Many of the beeves weighed over 2,- 000 bs. Heifers, 600 to 1500 bbs ; calves, 150 to 250 tbs. ——— ———<-- —- THE NECESSITY OF AGRICULT« URAL EDUCATION.

Mr. Fleiecham, who-was commissioned by the United States, in 1835, to visit Europe to obtain agricultural information, informs us in his instractive report that some three hundred and fifty schools exist in Hungary and other parts of Eu- rope, where beys from twelve to fourteen years are taught practical knowledge of | heard the whole business of farming, and also so much mechanism as to be able to make or mend every machine or imple-~ ment used in farming. The teachings vend to make them thorough economists, co that the farm shall always continue to improve. They are not taught abstract science, but positive knowledge—eoils, manures, rotation of crpps, the kind of work, umber of men, horses and cattle required to cultivate a given number of acres. Mr. Fleischam remarks that the perfection of European farming is due to the~* institations. Cot. RICHARD LATHERS, I the Rural Curolinian for December. oe IS DRAINAGE NEEDED? What are the effects of drainage? Thor- ough drainage deepens the soil. Of vhat use is it to plough deep and manure heavily, while the soil is full of water? The roots uf plants will not go down into Stugnant water, the elements of plant food are not allon the surface, many of them bave been washed down by the «’, some of them are fouud in the de- composing rocks themselyes. ‘Take away the water and the yoots will find them. Drainage lengthens the seasons. In our climate thia is an important point to be gained. If by drainage, one or two weeks could be gained, it would be quite arelief in our backward «prings, when there is so much to be done ia a short epace of time. Drainage increases the effect of the application of manure; the soil being dryer is more easily worked fine, the manure is also more evenly dis- tributed. The water also passing through the soil, carries fertilizing matter down to the roots of plants. When there is stag- pant water, manure must decompose slowly if at all, but*let the water pass off, the air is admitted, and decomposition takes place. What observing man is there who does not know that bis crops are improved in quality by drainage? Sweet English grass and clover take the place of sedge and rushes.— Mass. Ploughman. - ~ + me THE GUELDER ROSE. The guelder rose (viburnum), or, as we call it, snowball, is one of the most ornamental. flowering shrubs which adorn our gardens, The pure whiteness of the ilcsscal: the globular form which each mass of flowers as- sumes, and the profuseness with which the trec adorns itself in the spring make it a universal favorite where shrubs of variously colored blooms are mass- ed together, to make an effective pic- ture as a whole, as well as by exhibi- ting variety and contrast of colors. The guelder rose was originally a na- tive of China, and has been varied by cultivation till many species are known, the familiar kind bearing the botani- ical name of viburnum macrocephlum. It yields seeds freely, and can be pro- pagated with some difficulty by cut- tings, which should be of young wood and placed in a moist soil under glass, Grafting, however, is the best method, and is the one adopted in China, which, as we have stated, is the native of land of the tree. M. Keteleer, a French floriculturist, has recently introduced a new variety, to which has been given the name of ''», Keteleeri, but which he (says the English Garden, from which we select the engraving) should be more prop- erly called the v. Keteleeri macrocepha- lum. In France it _ acd well-in the open.air, a cutting being planted by M. Keteleer; and when one year ald, it produced a dozen clusters of flowers. It can therefore be more readily propagated in this way than the common elder rose; and it is sufficiently y to flourish out of doors, although it needs some pro- tection in severe weather. Its fav- orite soil is one that is dry and warm, and of a calcareous nature. M. Keteleer recently contributed a de- seription of the new variety to La Revue Horticole, the most creditable to our nat literary aequirements . and prof ~sioual published in ce-}. ss be ‘vergin’ on to 130.

No doubt it would be a sacrifice to these gentlemen to accept the position assigned them; but are we never rgain to have fit men for the higher officers willing and able to make the sacrifice for the sake of the honor and the good they may do. aap pre eerie A Goop Ipga.—The man who ori- ginated the idea of ultilizing criminals by making them work on public roads ought to have a monument erected to his memory. It isa good thing for the prisoners as well as the public, for it breaks the monotony of prison life, and keeps prisoners in a healthy, growing condition, and affords them the consolation of knowing that they doing sonic good in the world, though they doit unwillingly. It lessens pub- lic expense, a trifle at least; and makes the tax-payer feel better while toiling to remember that law-breakers are at work helping to lighten his bur- den. We advert to this subject at pres- ent with especial reference to the em- ployment of Penitentiary convicts on the Western N. C..Rail Road. The number there employed will soon be in- creased to 3&0. Ifthey can be made to dig and heave up dirt rightsteadily 10 hours tach day, it will certainly count out well at the year’s end. Thanks for the Railroad and the yay they are building it. I The-Commiissioners of the Western N.C. R. R. held a meeting at Old Fort last week, but we are not advised of their ‘deliberations further than that no action was taken as to the removal of the Machine Shops oi the Company, a question in which our citizens very naturally feel some inter- est. Salisbury did a good deal towards building this Road, and her peo- ple no doubt. thought they were laying out-their money and labor to the advancement of their local inter- rests. .They would not claim anything detrimenta] to the per- manent interest of the Road, but it is difficult for them to understand how it can be to the interest of the Road to remoye the shops from this place. The location should be perferred ep- tirely with reference to advantages to the Road, and upon this principle we know of no point where the edvan- tages would be greater than they are here, This point. will.continue to be one thetermini of the Road where trains will lie over, giving time for smal! repairs as well as large ones, which is often an item of great importance.

WasuHinctTon, D. @., Jan. 8.—The statistician of the Department of Ag- riculture has completed a compilation of the official returns for thie past month and finds correct the general assumption that there is a lower yield of ligt in proportion to seed cotton. Only two States, Arkansas and Texas, reporta larger proportion than jn 1874. The Atlantic States Which have previously made low estimates of production all return a smaller yield of lint to seed in com- parison with the , -evious crop, and none of them over, thirty pounds to each hundred , wands of seed.’ The average decrease in’ all the States ‘is four per cent. This reduction is at- tributed in most cases to, excessive moisture and resultant imperfect de- velopment of the bowl, and in some to the effect of early drought i in prevent- ing fall: maturi ae.

Wouo't you please give me ten cents?” I gave it to him. I'd have giten him the money if it had been necessary to pawn my hat. - “Do you let impostors swindle you in that manger?” inquired an acquain- tance. A journalist who bas knocked sroand for a daily a dozen years, has seen every Sides of trenmmn life. Men, women and children have swiudled him, or sought to; people have lied to him; his money bas Sone given to whining, lying vagrants who told dreadful tales of distress, and he ought to be able to correctly read. ha- man nature. “I'll bet that boy is a professional beggar,” continued My friend, chuck~ ling at the idea of my being swin- dled None of us care fur the lues of a shin- plaster on the street, while every ove teels vexed and annoyed at the idea of being swindled out of a single penoy.— T could not say that the boy was nota swiudler, and yet I would baye divided my last shilling with him. “Why ?” I told my fried why, and 1 will tell you. One day last year, when the wild wind blew the snow over the house-roofs and around the corners in blinding clouds, and when the frosty air cut oue’s face like a knife, a boy of ten came up to me as I waited for the car. He was thinly clad, his face betrayed bungor and saffer- ing, and in a mournful voice he plea- ded : “I’m bungry and cold !” “Why dou’s yua gu bome?” I asked. “I haven't any!’ “Haven't you any relatives!” “Not one,” “How long have you been bere?” “Three weeks.” The boy spoke in that drawl which professional beggars assume. | believed too, that 1 bad seen bis face on the streets time and again. “Boy !

I arghed that this proved his guilt, forgetting that a homelees, friendicss waif wight eviuee fear when entirely inuocent. Five hours later, when night bad come and the wiud bad grown to a fierce gale, the boy halted me aguuw as I plunged through the snow drifts. I did not see him watil he called out : “Mister !‘I'm almost starved, and I’ll freeze to death if 1 can’t get some place to sleep |” be same thio, ragged clothes—hardly comforfable for June weather—the same whine to his voice. I felt like giving him money, but the fear that he had been sent by the parents to beg restrained and angered me. Catching him by the arm I yelled out; “See here, boy! if you don’t own up that you are lying to me, I'll take you to the station |” Through the blinding storm I saw his white face grow paler, as he cried back : “Don’t take me—don't | lying !” 1 released him and hurried away, while I walked on, flattering myself that I bad played a sharp game and done the gener- ous public a good turn. Au hour later when the night bad grown atill wilder and colder, some one knocked, and I wondered who could have sent a child abroad on such a night. When I opened the door that same bo was on the step, his face blue with cold, his whole form shivering and a look of desperation in his eyes. “Please, Mister———}!" he began, but stopped when he recognized me. I was puazled to know why he had followed me home—why he had _ sclected me for a victim and trailed me so persis- tently. I might have argued thas the storm had driven people off the streets, and that the freezing, starving boy bad in his desperation called the house, but I dido’t. Had it been any other person or any other boy asking charity I would have given promptly and freely. Bat I was angry at bis trailing mo—angered that he thought he could awindle me, and I grabbed at him and in- quired : “Boy, what ie your name ?” He leaped baek, and standing where the furious storm almost buried him from sight, he answered : “Gil oe “I know you sir!” I shouted, and he moved away without another word. ~ May the Lord forgive me fortl.a: night's work! but you might ‘have acted the same, ben morning came, after a night so bitter that policemen were frozen on their beats, I opened the front door to find the boy dead on the steps, frozen to death!

One day in the summer of 1875, I was in the gallery of painting in the old city of Antwerp, wheu my attention was drawp to a group of pore gathered around a young man who was making a copy of one of Raben’s pictures. He was execa- ting a beautiful copy, but he had no hands and no arms with which to hold his brush. He held it with bis toes, and seemed to use his foot as skilfully as others their hand. Now, it is not natural to bold a small bruaW with the toes, nor is it easy to guide it carefully and delicately with the foot. Most persons with no arms would have said, “I can’t paiut;” he said, “T can,” and so he did, There was exhibited, some mouths since, in a store in New York city, a pic- ture called the “Rat Catcher.” It repre- sents a man and four dogs watching for rats. It is considered a very fine work of art. It was done by a man who had neither arms, por hands, nor feet, with which to hold bis brush. He was an uneducated man, with no knowledge of art; but, on his back, with brush beid in his pens and ten his lips and tougue, the pa fas in a frame over Mie face, he exeeuted this pic- ture, “No que would have blamed bim if he bad said, ‘I can’t,’ while one wonders liow be could say, ‘I can.’ ‘I can’t’ is a very bad counsellor, except when you are urged to do then you may ‘I ro - — and as you please. right path, take ‘I can’ for a traveling companion, and you mouatains saw you power to dig down the bills and fill ~~ Boangelist. ™ the street in bis} Se ob 7 Se eg FACTS!

It is reported in this city, that on Tuesday evening after dark, a man named Smith, citizen of Cabarrus county, wason his way home from Concord, when he was met in the road bya negro who demanded money. Mr. Smith gave him $5 and the scoundrel demanded more, He responded that he had more, but thought that ought to be enough for him. The negro told him to hand over all he had, and Mr. Smith reached in his pocket as if to get it ; but instead of the money he drew his pistol, which he leveled upon his assailant and fired the ball striking him in the breast and producing al- most instant death, The above item appeared in the OxssERVER of yesterday. The circum- stances are these: Dr. Gib Smith, resides in Coddle Creek Township, Iredell county, in the corner of Ire- dell, Mecklenburg’and Cabarrus, was returning home on Tuesday night about 8 ajclock, from a visit to a pa- tient, when he wae met in the road by two negroes,-one of whom demanded money. He handed him $1.20, which he had in his vest pocket, when the highwayman told him that he must have more. Dr. Smith told him that he had some more money, and if noth- ing else would do, supposed he must give him. Saying which, he reached in the rear pocket of his pants, drew a pistol and fired upon the ae The ball struck him in the forehead and he fell dead in the road. Dr. Smith rode on to the nearest. house and _ re- ported the occurrence. A number of persons in the neighborhood visited the body while it lay where it fell but none could identify it; the negro seems to have been a stranger in that section. His companion darted into the woods as soon as Dr. Smith fired, and was seen no more—Charlotte Observer. en eae OUTRAGEOUS CONDUCT.» On yesterday about noon, or a short time after, a negro whose name was subsequently ascertained to be Gus Wayman, went to the house of a gen- tleman in the city while he was away and entering the door, made indecent proposals to the lady. He was run from this place, after which he went to another, not far distant, and on the premises indulged in the most out- rageous language and conduct. The owner of the place was at home and went out to remonstrate with the ne- gro. After some conversation he or- dered him off the lot, when the negro seized a roek as if to throw it at him. The gentleman went in the house and got his pistol, and returning into the yard, found that the negro had fled. An officer was put upon his track, aud he was are and carried before Justice Hilton and MeNinch. His bearing in the court was boister- ous and impertinent, and after having been told several times to stop talk- ing, and having refused, Constable Whitley, was told to carry him to jail. His left hand was put in the hand-cuff, and he was ordered to put the other one in, which he peremptorily refused todo. At this juncture, policeman Hill, who was present, ordered him to allow himself hand-cuffed ; refusing the second time, the policeman very properly knocked him (down in the court room, after which he stretched out his hand and let it be locked up. A farther hearing of the case will be had to-day. The scoundrel is indict- ed for attempt at rape, forcible tres- pass, and indecent exposure of per- son. The case excites a good deal of com- ment. The negro’s conduct was most outrageous and has caused a good deal of alarm among those even who were pot directly interested. He merits severe punishment—Char. Observer. ——_.. > Death from Tight Lacing. ————— From the London Daily Telegraph.

The ombne’ said that. death had resulted from the bursting of an aneurism, and the post mortem examination reveal- ed terrible evidences of tight lacing on the of the deceased, who had been a very beautifal women, In fact, one & the old lady's ribs had been pressed against the internal organs, and had kept them ae at half action, as it were votil a atly an i posi, toy the sadden rupture she died. Mrs. Wheeler must have been an exceptionally healthy women to bave thus lived in spite of the corset which imprisoned part of ber organs and inter fered‘ with their natural development; of which |i longs to one of Marlboro’s most re- — families, and the sympathies of all ¢ just citizens of that community have been extended to her. Many of the colored people admit the justness of the negro’s fate, A coroner’s inquest was held over the body. No arrests have been made. Caught in a Log Trap.—In Warren county three negroes went to a farmer's smoke-house to steal his meat. It was a log house and tliey prized it off the ground, while one held it up with a lever as the other two went under after the meat. The dog barked and brought the farmer out with bis guo, and as the two negroes had commenced crawling out, the farmer fired his gun off, and the one holding the lever took to his heels, drop-~ ping the log house on bis friends and illing them both. It happened daring Christmas.—Ral. News. ——- -- ep —- —- - THIRD TERM IN N. C. What the Office Holders Say— Where the Opposition Is. [ Letter in New York Sun.] Raeics, N. C., Jan, 1. It is really wonderful to note how strongly the third-teraa movement bes developed in this State within the past month. ‘lhe Federal office-holders aro all for Grant. Until Bishop Haven was so outspoken in Boston a short time ago, many of this class were silent on the sub- ject. The leading lights here of the movement for the Presideut’s renomina- tion are first and foremost ex-Gov. Hold- en, impeached Radical, and present Posts mastor at Raleigh, aud Dick Badger, who was, until 1874, one of the most violeat Democrats in the State, but suddenly became a convert under the influence of Holden and a Ring which then held the reins of the State Goverument. Badger is now U.S. District Attorney, and bas still higber political aepiratious. R. M. Douglass, United States Marsbal, former- ly Grant's private secretary, has some religious seruples about supporting his former master for a third term; but, be~ yond the patronage of his office, Robert wields ne politicul influeace in the State. Thos. Settle, who was President of the Philadelphia Convention, is a strong third-termist. His associates on the Sapreme bench of this Stae are non- committal. ‘The colored people in the State, who do not publicly favor, do not oppose a third term. * * * * e e The respectable classes among the white Republieans are not at all in favor of a third term of third termers ; and when the State Convention meets, should the question be mooted, there will be a row. at any rate, it is safe to say third term or no third term, at the next State election in North Carolina will go Demotratic. —— + oe THE GRINDSTONE SWINDLE. To the Editor of the World. Sir: You make a point, in your dis- cussion of the tariff, on grindstones. The principal grindstnoe quarries in the eoun- try are on the Western Rererve, weat of eaveland, Soon after the of the tariff act, laying the present duty on grindstones, the writer met one of the rincipal men interested in these quarries, and the following colloquy ensued : Grindstone Man—1 have been in Wash- ington six months and procured a tariff of $2 a ton on grindetones. Iam a free trader in everything but grindstenes. But we cannot compete with Nova Scotia grindstones, on the Atlantic sea-board, without a tariff. Writer—If the question is not a fair one, don't answer it. But bow much did you pay? A short time after, meeting the same gentleraan, the writer pat the following question : “When I last met you I asked you how much you paid for your .tariff on grindstones. as did not answer. I will put another question: Do Congress- mon take mbes SB their votes ¥” Grindstone Man—They will all stick their’ band out bebind them, illustrating the way thev do it by thrusting bis own hand behind cupped to its utmost recep~ tive capacity. . This may not be plenary proof that this tariff act was procured by bribery; bat that intelligent legislators woald pase an act compelling the industries of the At» lantic States to pay & bonus of $2 a ton on grindstones to an insi t number ofquarry-men on the Western Reserve, ith no other motive than the public weal, is preposterous. the above is literally trae.

[From the Southern Planter and Farmer. | CORN-SHUCKING. Why is it that farmers will contin- ue to pay the negro ten cents per barrel to shuck their corn when there is little or no expense attending that operation? Let the corn be “slip-shucked” as it is gathered and thrown into the crib. This can be done with safety three weeks earlier than when it is shucked. The rats do not injure it anything like so much, and there is not that vile scent upon it caused by them. It is the best plan upon earth to keep weavyil from it and in fact there are many reasons why it should be housed. When you wish to prepare the crop for market or the mill, pass it through the corn sheller and through your wheat fan, with ‘ ¢ chaffer only in it, and there you have your corn shelled, shucked and cured, and your shucks hackled and ready for your stock, than which nothing is better for them, always provided you have them slightly impregnated with water, into which you Teea cast a modicum of salt. What pleasure to see them eat it, all the time remem- bering that you have in your pocket $10 save uponevery 100 barrels of corn you may have made, which would ave gone into the pocket of some low vender of lightning, who have gone into the pocket of every negro to whom the farmer pays money.

Mortgage on Crops. From the N. Y. Journal of Commerce, The-following questions will interest mauy persons, especially throughout the South, where this topie has been much discussed : Concorp, N. C. Dee. 24, 1875. Editor of the Journal of Commerce:— An anewer ip your “Replies and Decis« ions” will be fully appreciated: A farmer plants his crop, then gives a mortgage to a merchant on his growing crop of cotton, &c., for supplies furnished. The mort~ gage claims the matured cotton as his by reason of mortgage on growing crop.— Can the merchant take suid cotton from an innocent purchaser? Will you give ease and decision in United States Su- preme Court, from Louisiana or Missie sippi, concerning mortgage on growiug crops? Was it not decided it did not bind the matured crop? It will be mach to our advantage to have your valued opinion published. Yours truly, P. & C. RerLy.— Tbe case stated appears to be completely covered by the detision of the United States Supreme Conrt in the case of Butt vs. Ellett, 19 Wall. 324, being an appeal f:om the U. S. District Court for the District of Louisiana. One Sillers sold his plantation to Graham, and Graham executed in return a mortgage dated 1867, on the crops to be grown that year. Ellett succeeded to the rights of Sillers as judgment creditor, but Grabam, notwithstanding the mortgage, scld the crops to Butt & Co. to repay advance.— Ellett accordingly filed against Butt & Co., and the District Court gave bim a decree for the value of the crops. The Supreme Court affirmed the decree, Mr. »Jastice Swayve delivering the opinion, and saying, “The mortgageclause * * * could not operate as a mortgage, be- cause the crops to which it relates were not then in existence. When the crops grew the lien attached avd bound them affectually from that time.” HILL'S ANSWER TO BLAINE. A STINGING REBUKE FOR RE- VIVING THE WAR FEELING. Jeff Davis not the Monster the Ex Speak~ er Painted hin—How the Federals were Responsible for the Horrors of Ander- sonvile—An Eloquent Plea for the Union, WasuinGTon, Jan. 11. The House then proceeded to consider the Aanesty bill. Hill epoke two hours in most effective style, and was frequently applauded by the House and galleries. In opening he disclaimed all desire on the part of bimeelt and his aesociates from the South to re- open ill-feeling between the sections, The eountry bad already suffered enongh from feuds. He and bis associates had come here with the patriotic idea to remember nothing but the country, and the whole country, aud turning their backs upon all the horrors of the past to look with all earnestness to find glories for the future. The geutleman (Blaine) who was the ac- knowledged leader of the Republican par- ty in the House, and was the aspiring leader of the Republican party the country, bad, however, willed otherwise and seemed determined that the wounds which are healing should. be reopened, and that the passions which were hushed should be reinflamed. He (Hill) wished the House.to understand that be and his aasociates did not reciporate either the purpose or the manifest desire of the gen- tleman, and while they felt it their im- parative duty to vindieste the trath of not intend to say anything ted aid the gentleman in that work of crimi- nation and recrimination, and of keeping up the war by puliticians after brave men bave éaid that the war shall end. Tlie records on which his fame must rest had been made up, and his companions and friends had remitted that record to the tial judgement—bonest Ree perity. In the meantime no eulogy of thisfeould hel it, no censure from the gentleman (Blaine) could damage it, and no act or resolation of the House could affect it. The charge against Mr. Davis was that he was a deliberate, wilful, scheming murderer, of thousands of his fellow-citi- zeus. Knowing the high character and reputation of the gentleman from Maine, he (Hill) had supposed when he heard. the charge fall from his lips that he had cértainly made a recent discovery and he listened for the evidence; but what was it, nothing but the partial report of a Con- gressional committee. The testimony read was exclusively ex parte testimony, taken while the gentleman now on trial before the country was in prison, without a hearing and without the opportunity of a hearing. If there was any principle held sacred in the Anglo-Saxon mind, it was thatan Englishman was not con- demned until he should be confronted with his witnesses. But the testimony was not only ex parte, but was mutilated, palpably mutilated, most adiiotly mautila~ ted extracts. Even the day of his exes cution Wirz had been offered a commuta- tion of his sentence if he would implicate Jefferson Davis, but Wirz’s answer to his counsel was, “Schade, you know that I have always told you that I do not know anything about Jefferson: Davis. He had no connection with me as to what was done at Andersonville. I would not become a traitor against him or azybody else even to save my life.’ Bat, said Hill, what poor Wirz within two hours of his execution would not say for his life the gentleman from Maine says to the country for the sake of keeping his party in power. [Sensation.] Sir, christianity is a falsehood, human- ity is a lie, civilization isa cheat, or the man who would not make a false charge ya his life was never guilty of wilfal mur-: er. Hill went on to argue that on the logic of Blaines speech, holding Davis respon- ble for the acts of Winder, President Grant might be held responsible . for the acts of McDonald and Joyce, and he ask- ed whether Blaine meant to establish a rule of construction that would authorize the country to arraign President Grant for complicity in the whiskey frauds. Was President Grant responsible, he asked, for Credit Mobieler, for the Saubora ¢ontract, or for the frauds of the District of Colam- bia. And yet Grant had absolutely scnt to the Senate of the United States for confirmation for a high office the name of a man (alluding to Alexander R. Shep- herd, of Washington) who stood charged before the country with the grossest pec- ulations and frauds on this District, after the charges had been made and while they were pending. He (Hill) was nei- ther the author nor disciple of such'politis cal logic, but if the gentleman’s (Blaine’s) proposition with regard to Davis were true, then by the same. logic General Grant, instead of being entitled to a third term, was entitled to 20 terms in 20 peni- tentiaries. { Laughter. ] Extract.—[Whatever horrors had ex- isted at Andersonville not one of them could be attributed to an order of the Confederate Government, and every one of them grew out of the necessity of the occasion, which necessity had fastened on the Confederates by the conduct of the other side. | He challenged Blaive to meet him face to face and fact to fact in the discussion of the question, declaring that the time was of the past when the country could accept the impudence of assertion for the force of argument, or the recklessness of statément for the truth of history. Mr. Hill had some articles regarding the prison at Elmira. ‘ Platt, of New York, asked him who was the author of the letter.’ Hill replied that he did not know. Platt declared, as living within thicty~ six miles of Elmira, that the statements were unqualifiedly false.

Hill— With all dae deference to the gentleman, he! did not think any sach thing. {Laughter} He -he would divert me from the purpose of my argument. Blaine (apologetically)—Oh, no: the gentleman can have all the time he wants. Hilt— What measures the Confederate Government might have proper to take at that time to protect the women and children of the Confederacy from insurrection, I do not recollect; but I shall not be diverted by the gentleman from Maine from the course of my argu- ment to go into the ‘history of slavery, or of the insurrection, or Johan Brown's raid. I know this: that whether I, or any other gentleman, or the committes was the author of the resolution, and which I thiok more than probable, our purpose was not to do injustice to man, woman or child, North or ; but to adopt what we deemed measures to protect our wives and dren from servile insurrection and slaugh- ter, while our brave sons were ou the field.

He is a prospective Republican candidate for the next Presi- dency, and if be can again craze the pab- lic mind of the Northern people by flannt ing in their faces the bloody shirit of the late war and the “prison horrors” of Andersonville, he may accomplish two or three party ends of great importance: First and foremcast, it will divert the pub- lic mind from the consideration milder horrors of Radics! thieving, op- pression of the people, upd sal-aduinis~ tration of public affiive.

The Townships, as they at present hexist, are self-governing municipalities and Corporations, with onlimited powers of taxa- tion. As mere territorial districts and voting precincts, they are perfectly harmless. But they onght not to have any powers of taxation. The people are fazed enough already—and if the Amendments are ratified there will never be another Township faz levied or collected. I venture to say, that there can scarcely be found in the whole State a man, who ia in fa- vor of the Township system just as it stands in the present Constitution, that is not also direct- ly interested in the perpetuation of the system, either as an office-holder, or from some other selfish motive. It will be observed that sections, 3, 4, 10 and 11 of this Article are virtually obsolete, having already accomplished the purpose of their adoption. . JOHN S. HENDERSON. CONGRESS.—Jan’y. 18.—In the Senate, Thurman presented: the credentials of Jas. B. Eustis, claiming a seat as Senator from Louisiana, and ket that they be referred to the committee on Privilege and Elections. After some discnssion, the matter was laid over till to-morrow. Banks’ amnesty bill excepts Mr. Davis, though Banks himself, wi)l vote to strike the exception out. The theory is that the bill cannot pass unless the Republicans are allowed to record themselves on the subject, but that the bill will pass after the excep- tion is stricken out. It cannot pass with the restriction. [It is the only means of sc- curing two-thirds for a clean amnesty. Mr. Waddell of N. C., made a speech in favor of an appropriation for the Centennial Exhibition. The Judiciary Committee reported an a- mendmeut to the Constitution limiting the Presidential term to four years. —_>—_ —_ CINCINNATI—AND WHO? The Republir 1 National Commit- tee, says the N. Y. Sun, after many indeterminate ballotings, finally fixed upon Cincinnati as the place, and the fourteenth day of June next as the time, for holding the Repuclican Na- tional Convention to nominate cani- dates for President'and Vice-President of the United States. The New York Times, the great journal of the party, in announcing the fact, stigmatizes the place selected as “Porkopolis,” though it magnani- mously refrains from any remarks about trichine. In the debates u a place a great deat was said about getting railroad tickets at half price, the speakers evidently being forgetful of the fact that they wil] all be dead- heads, after the election. No compliment was paid to Presi- dent Grant—they were not the men to worship the setting sun—but on the other hand, the call issued says nothing to those opposed to a third term. —-_- A new movement has been started in Congress to bring in the rotten borough of New Mexico, with its mon- | population, as a State in the Un- ion. The facts concerning that Ter- ritory have been systematically mis- represented, both in regard to the quantity and quality of population, resources, and everything else which affects the question of admission. The whole Territorial Government is ab- solutely controlled by a Ring, of which S. B. Exxrns, the present Delegate in Congress, is the head and front, That Ring notoriously runs the courts, hucksters what is miscalled justice, handles all the appropriations, and in a word governs as Territory asa per- sonal property. This is done through favoritism at Washington. The peo- ple have protested in vain against this corrupt dominiation, and when they rose up at the last Territorial election and defeated E_x.ns, they were fraud- ulently. counted out by his tools. It is proposed, without a color of reason, to convert this worthless Ter- ritory into a State, in order to place the chiefs of this Ring of plunderers in the Senate. By that means patron- age would be multiplied for their prof- it, and the recent history of rascality in South Carolina, Mississippi, Louis- ina, Arkansas, Alabama, and Florida would be in another form. The engineer of this scheme is ELKins, who last married the daughter of Senator Davis of West Virginia.

Washington, Jan. 16.—So many of the officials engaged in the Whiskey Ring prosecutions are at present in’ Washing- ton that very natarally considerable in- terest and curiosity are excited. Very litle actual iuformation, however, can be obtained from them. Notwithstanding General Babcock’s protestations of inno» cence, the proseeation say they have a very strong case against him, and strong testimony must be presented:to clear away the damuging testimony secured by the United States attorneys. Ex-Chief Clerk Avery still eays that he will aps ply for a new trial, but a gentleman who knows all of the testimony against Bab. cock, states that when that gentleman’s trial occurs and eome of the Government's witnesses are sworn Avery will be quite contented that be cseaped as easily as he did, and will never ask for a new trial. Bluford Wilson, Solicitor of the Treasury, declines to express an opinion on General Babcock’s guilt or innocence, but denies that any ill-feeling exists between him- sclf and the Private Secretary.. Washing- ton is filled with spies of the Government and the whiskey ring, both on the alert to discover whatever new moves the other is making. Several of the whiske ring spies have endeavored to obtain em- ployment in the ‘Treasury Department tor the sole purpose of observing aud re- porting the movements of the Govern- ment in the prosecution. Fortunately Secretary Biistow has thus far, aided. by fiience, been able to keep these epies and eavesdroppers out of the department. Within the past week a celebrated character io the whiskey frauds has made bis appearance in Washington. He ia an ex-gauger numed Everest, of St. Louis. Everest was the middleman or agent be- tween Joyce and the “old man in the way,” or “gentleman in the country.” When the frauds were first exposed, it is said that Everest, who had recently marticd, took unto himself of the profits of the “crooked,” and with his wife went abroad. They. stopped in Rome, Italy. Everest is a man who knows all about the transactions which took place in the manufacture of illicit whiskey and the parties interested, and the Gvoernment hearing of his whereabouts, sent an agent to Rome with authority to inform Ever- est that if he would return to this eountry aod testify to all he knows in regard to the ring transactions, immunity from punishment would be granted him. Ev- erest aceepted this offer, and hence: his presence in Washington. General Bab- cock will be well defended. His counsel are ex-Judge Krum, of St. Louis. and [John K. Porter, of New York, and he is assisted in preparing his case by Jobn Russell Jones, the late Minister to Bel gium, a personal friend of Mr. Babcock’s. District-Attorney Dyer, his assistant, and Mr. Bliss, of St. Louisa, are still here ar- ranging for General Babcock’s trial. Supervisor Myer, of St. Louis, who has also been here co-operating with the Treasury officials. in the same direction, bas just returned to St. Louis. —_—— see -——_ — THE SouTHERN PLANTER AND FARMER.—We are in receipt of the January number of thisold and stand- ard Southern Agricultural Journal, and its contents show no decline in ifs vigor.

And it lies there alone. I will reverence it ever— The paigh on the elbow, the hole in the side’; Fora more gallant heart never breathed then the loved one Who wore it in honor and soldierly pride ; Let me brush off the dust from its tatters all tarnished, Let me fold it up closely and lay it away; It is all that is left of the loved and the lost one,\. | Who fought for the right in the ranks of the Gray ! ——————-a-—____ * Revenue Irials—Supervisor Tutton Ordered to Chicago.

I generally work in the markegie T must get my red checks through what I absorb from meats | handle,—but about a year.ago one of our butchers took sick, and I his place in the slaughter-house for some six weeks. I bad not been at the ter-house long until ono afternoon about 2 o'clock —our time to begin killing—a carriage drove up. Two ladies drove ap and alighted : one known to me as the wife of, the superintendent of one of our leading Cométock mines, and the other a young lady from San Francisco, as I afterwards learned. I saw, almost as soon as the ladies atrived, that the youoger one had no use of ber ene Fanare letely paral was to oak wih ber left band. I observed that when she wanted to put her dead hand into her muff she was obliged to reach through with ber left, get hold of the hand and then draw it to where she wanted it, just as though it had been a skien of yarn. Well it appears there had been some understanding about her com- ing there, bat what she did, not a little came. The ladies stood looking on while we hauled up a bullock and knocked him on the head. No sooner had the knife been withdrawn from the animal's throat than the young lady suddenly threw. off a large mantle that she wore, and rashing forward sat down upon the floor just at the bullock’s neck, where a torrent of blood was gushing. She then bared her right arm and thrust it to the shoulder into the gaping and blood-sepouting throat of the animal, holding & there until the blood had ceased to How. We were then killing about thirty animals every after- noon, and every day regularly the girl came and thrust her dead arm into the bleediug throat of one or more of them, Thatgirl had courage, and was not ove of your over uiee kind, I can tell you. She had a course dress of some heavy wooled stuff thatshe wore for the pur- e, and when the bullock fell aud the nife hud done its wark she at ,oneo ~ran up and seated herself.on the floor, as__re- gardless of the blood as if it had been so mach water. There she would han across the neck of the beast antil it ceas to bleed. She was so brave that we were all glad when she got well. I remember how happy she was when she came one day and showed us that she could begin to open and close her fingers. From that time forward she improved rapidly. Soon she could move her arm and finally could grasp and lift yhings with ber band. [ think she came for about three weeks before she was cured. ‘Ibe last day she came she was quite bright and merry— more so than | had ever seen her. Alter utting on her mantle she thanked us all for our kindness to her and shook hands with us, giving us the cured band, whieb, as she laughingly said, ‘we had some right to.’ We all felt a great interest in her, but never saw her again. I never learned her name. All I know is that she came from San Franciseo. I suppose I might have found out'who she was by asking Mr , but I dida’t know but | might be considered impertinent. I don’ know whether the cure proved permanent. After the young lady went away we thought we should see many persons there to try the blood bath; bat none have ever come. ‘hat gi ' was the only one, and TI never saw anything like it before or since.” +. A CURIOUS ROMANCE. Norfolk street, Strand, says the Lon- don Court Journal, has a curious com~ memorative monament. An observant spectator will notice that the first floor windows of a large house at the corner of Howard street present a pecaliar appear- avce. The shatters are up, and they are covered thickly with dust, while through the chinks can be seen the blinds, also thick with dust and moldering away with age. Those shutters and Blinds have been in exactly the same position, un- touched, for about fifty years. During that time no haman foot, it «is believed, has entered that room. And the reason is this : Fifty years ago a certain nobleman was engaged to be married, the day was fixed, the wedding morning srrivel, and breakfast was laid out in that spacious and handsome room, the bridegroom was ready to prem te eharch, when is wae discoyered that the bride was missing’; a note in her handwriting was found addressed ¢- use bridegroom, briefly in- forming him that she had eloped that moraing with his “best man,” a gay and lerigs, — captain of dragoons.

When the Western terminus of the tuc- nel is reached it will be easily graded to Asheville. The Board, Mr. Canady inform as, transacted a good deal of neaeant bas- isess, all looking to the completion of the road at aa early a day as possible. Among other things the Board made contracts with parties for doing al! the tunnelling ; ordered fifty convicts to be pat to work on the road at Paint rock beyond Asheville, and to work on the line between that point aod Asheville : Ordered that application be made to the Penitentiary Board for one bandred and fifty convicts more, who will be employed at points on the road, to the beat advan ge. Owing to a reduction in, the tariff of freights, there has been an increase in the receipts of the road, of twenty-one hundred dollars, for the months of No- vetpber and December, over the receipts for the same months iu the year 1874: If the proper energy is continued on this im t work of internal improve- ment, the sea and the mountains will soon be made neighbors to each othor ;—then will the “floods clap their hands and the hills rejoice together.” vO) FAITE, POSTERS, PROGRAMMES, Circulars, CB HdE.

Captain Butler loved Charles dearly, and it well nigh broke his heart to see him thus afflicted. — Unknown to-any of his crew, he had concealed him in the cabin, and there he tended him, narsed him, watched over him, wondering, day by day, night after night, if it was really true, after all that there could be ne eure for him and that he must remain mad. When he entered the cabin on the night in question, Captain Butler found his brother in a state of feverish excitement. “Devils ! devils!” he cried. “Drive them back!

We know nothing of his medical knowledge and skill nor of: 'the entlorsements presented in his circulars, Truth has ever been the search of men and is fikely 80 to continue. Like good and evil is generally found mixed with error, so that men are constantly required to exer- cise their reason and judgment in the dis- crimation between them. It is an exercise which every one must make for himself, or he is liable to deception. When he has done his best he may fail and have to deplore his error. ‘No one is exempt from this lot of human frailty. Doctors, lawyers, scientis, teachers, people of. every class, are constant- ly blundering in their search after truth, and the wisest of them are often deceived when they think they have it. Now, 4n téspett to this doctoring business we have'thiy’ to ‘say: We believe there is virtue in castor oil, salts, calomel, quinine, Brandreth.and Cook’s pills, and a few other things which we have, tried, for certain ail- ments, and are not afraid to prescribe them for ourself.

Some one in Raleigh oceasionally writes a letter tothe New York Sen about North Carolina polities, and while he don’t seem to be entirely correct in hie last as~ sertions and predictions, he often indicates “the way of the wind.” We make the following extract from a letter dated “Raleigh, N.

The so-called Liberals have “defeated us by an incessantagitation, “We must fight them with their, own “weapons.” This isa curious ad- mission of the superiority of the Lib- eral tactics; but it is. certainly far more desirable both for the Roman Chureh in Italy and for its opponents that the] cortroversy between them should be erred on in the open air by diseussion and debate under the constitutional forms now established in the Peninsula, than that the Vat- ican should be persistently represen- ted as a gloomy prison in which the Head of the ureh sits silently awaiting ued course of human events. The next step to be taken, and it is hard to see how the Pope ‘can refuse to allow his followers to take it, will be to accept the situation, entirely, organize a clerical party as in Bel- gium, and try conclusions with the victorious Liberals at the polls and in the Italian Parliament,—N.

Speech « unkind sometimes when there is no unkindness in the heart; so much the worse that need- less wounds are inflicted; so much the worse that unintentionally pain is caused. Keep it from falsehood. It is so, casy to give a false coloring, 90 to make a statement that it may convey a meaning different from® the truth, while yet there is an appearance of truth, that jwe feed to be on our guard. There are | ¥ many who would sbrink fromtelling a lie, who yet suffer themselves in such inaccurate or exaggerated or one-sided statements that they really come under the con- demnation of those whose “lying pe are an abomination to the Keep ii from slander. The reputation of others should be dear to us. Sin should not be suffered to go unrebuked ; but it should ‘bein accor- danée’ with the Seri pture method: Go ahd tell his fault betwixt thee and him alone.” And it shall be borne in mind that whatis too often considered as merely harmless gossip runs dangerously near, if it does not the confines of ‘slander.

She has innured herself to the stings of ker pet insects, and handles them with ect confidence. From every brood born in her pre- serves she selects the best “layers” to rear, and their ate sold ata fair price to bird fanciers as food for phea- sants. The police see to it that she keeps her anthouse a good distance out of the city, and a number of agents are continually scouring the forests in the rural districts of France and capturing large nests of ants to send to her. Her establishment is, therefore, not only no nuisance to her i but a positive blessing to thousands of farming people. = HOW INDIANS CURE MEATS AND DRESS SKINS. , Whew ber lord has vet a the pt ork . -Bhe to skin i, na As to a and all to pack up- on ponies or males, and carry to camp, where the mest must be cured. ‘I'his ia done by cutting it iuto thin sheets, and hanging it over poles in the hot sunshine, where it ia soon dried thoroagh. ly ; then it is ed fresh iu packages of out a 100 dre each, sail Wiskiesa in a nice folding sack of thick buffalo skin, prepared es is cut oat like « huge envelope, so that the ends and sides will fold over what- ever is pat fwithem, and aceared by strong buckskin strings.

The Repub- 1 legates in the Convention did not dare to place themselves on the record as being op- pored to this amendment—alithough it is well known that the Republican leaders are really lear hoatile to its adoption—and the Republican party, asa party, is notoriously in favor, not only of mixed schools, bat alae of intermarriage between the races—as appeors from the public sets of that party in the-Congress of the United States:;and in the Legislature bodies of those States, where it maintains an undisputed and absolute ascendency. Section 4, of said Article now reads asfollows: “See, 4; The proceeds of al? lands that have been, or hereafter may be granted by the United States to thin State and not otherwise specially ap- propriated by *the United Btates or heretofore by'thia Stute; also, all moneys, stocks, bonds, and other property now belonging to any fund for purposes of education; also, the net pro- ceeds that may accrue to thé State from sales of estrays, or from fines, penalties and forfeit- ures; also, the proceeds of all eales of the swamp lanids belonging to the State; also, all Money that shall be paid as an equivalent for temption from military duty ; also, all grants, gifta or devises that may hereafter be made to this State, and not otherwise appropriated by the grant, gift or devise, ahall be securely invested, and sacredly preserved as an irreducible educu- tional fund, the annual income of which, together with so much of the ordinary revenne of the , Brate as may be necessary, shall be faithfully appropriated for establishing and perfecting in this State a system of free public schools, and forfno other parposewor uses whatsoever.” The! amendment strikes out the whole of said section, and proposes to insert fro new nec- tions, in lieu thereof, as follows : (Sec. 4.

Mr. Houston presents some fais new tous going to -estubliah the hypothesis that'P. 8. Ney was the veritable French Marshal. ‘Bat this fact, if it be a fact, necessarily implies the commit- tal in open day, and, in, the presence. of many interested witnesses, one of. the most remarkeble—fraade—ever- perpetrated in France or any other-eountry. French historians have never yet, we believe, admitted that there was any doubt about the execution of Marshal Ney. It is re- corded by them as a well known and ad- mitted fact, and, if we are not mistaken, those in this section who were acquainted with P. S. Ney, the achool teacher, and had good opportunities to’gather infornia- tion from him, while they admit the old man from some cause shrouded himself with mystery, do not believe that he was the historical Marehal Ney of France, though he wes a Frenchman, and a man of rather remarkable pereonal presence. —_- OF TUE WHISKY RING? A correspondent of the New York World states that the original “crooked whisky” ring of St. Louis was started in 1872, ostensibly for campaign arposes: iv the interest of Grant. Its leading spirits were McDonald, supervisor; Joyee, revenue agent: Bevis and Finer, distit- lers ; and CO. G. Megrue, cashier and pay- waster. Instead of using their fanda to promote the cause of the Repabliean par- ty, money was divided among thew. This arrangement continued till after the Presidential election, the géverumént be- ing defranded of from $5,000 to S15,000 per week by rhe efficials. After’ the election was over McDotiald’ and Joyce wanted to “freeze out” certain members of the conspiracy, and accomplished their object by having all crooked onérations stopped for a while. As'noon as the ob- noxious persons were’ got tid of; iucluding Megrue, operations=were resumed more boldly and npon a.durger scale than at first. oT the diatillers, with unimportant xceptions, the supervisor, the revenue agents, gangers aud gtorekeepers were iv the ring. been vO A HISTORY In 1874, Peter Curran, baviv prosecuted by the government (his Gave was subsequently settled), desired to get = of lsis trouble; and ‘tbe cx/teembers of the original: riug, ‘the trigh which had bee played upon: s —— having suspicions that the crooke tions had been res psaet soem a corres- ence with, Co i elective, in baie the @xi Peni ear, A secret sent to St. Loais to investigate.

The darkest part of the case as it now stands, is Babeock's con- duet after he says he discovered the guilt of the two chief conspirators. He carried on @ correspondenee with McDonald through an army “master at St. Louis ; and with the President's private (Luckey), in St, Louis, be conspired. to mislead the public’as to his desire to tes- tity. And of all this last, the President knew nothing. Bat if the Presidens, up to within a year or so, had no saspicion of the roguery of McDonald and Joyce, it is barely possible opon the evidence that his confidential secretary was equal. ly nosuspicious. We say “upon the evidence,” because the proof telegraphed to New York as produced on the trial falls far short of what we were told, from various quarters, the prosecution would show iu St. Louis by unimpeachable wit- uesses. ‘The theory of the District- Atiorney evidently is that Babcock was not only in the conspiracy bat in its pay, and that he acted the part not of control- ling the action of Douglass, Richardson, Bristow and Grant, butof a key-hole listener and adroit inquirer for Govern- ment acta uufuvorable to the ring, and telegraphed such before they were offi- cially proclaimed. Between these two theories the jury must choose. ‘The Presidei:t’s testimony in favor of Babcock wants no element of eomplete- ness. He testifies to facts and to bis opinions, usurping in the latter the func~ tions of the jury. The breadth and scope of the President’s testimopy have vot beer fully appreciated. “Q. Have you ever seeu anything in the condact of General Babcock, or has he ever said anything to you, which iu- dicated to your miud that be was in any way iuterested ia or connected with the Whiskey Rivg at St. Louie or elsewhere ? A. Never. “Q. In what manner, as regards the public interests and as etvineing bis fidel- ity aud integrity, has be peimaeesen his datics as your private secretary? A. Always lo my entire and full satisfaction. *“Q. Have you iu aby form observed or learned anything in connection with General Babcock’s conduct which has tended to diminish your confidence iu his fidelity und integrity, and is that confi- deuce in his fidelity and integrity still unimpaired and uodiminiehed? A. I always had great confidence ix his integ- rity and hia efficiency, and as yct my coufidence in him is unshaken; I have never learned anything that would shake that confidence ; of course I know of this trial that is progressing,” This, it will be borne in mind, is suid after the indietment, and after all that has beeu' doue, and exposed, against Babcock. It is said afterall the repre- sentations that the Treasury can aud should have made to the President. At the end of his cross-examination, and when all was unfolded, the President was unshaken iu bis confidence. “Q. What was the general character of the explanation of the dispatches to which your attention has been directed as given you by General Babcock? A. ‘The explanation which he gave seemed to me to clear up al! groands of suspicion agaiut bim. “Q. What wae the general character of those explanatioss } A. It was geu- erally a statement of thcir meaning and what they were in response to; but I could vot probably give at this time bis explanation of any one of them. “Q. But the explanations givea at the time were such ae to satisfy yout A. They seemed to me to be entirely satias factory.” Of course this is very improper testi- mony |o go toajury, because they are to decide according to the facts, aud the President’s opinions are not such facts ; but nevertbeless these opicions are ex. traordinary and almost inexplicaple. And yet, if the Presideut honestly feele thas he was befvoled by McDonald from be ginning tovending, he would natarally be charitable with Babcock, and give bia the benefit of every doubs. ; As tothe change in a of which so much has beeu , it appears from the evidence that Commissioner Douglass invented the plan befure Secre- tary Bristow entered the. department, and communicated it tothe President at-the end of 1874, who suggested it to Bristow early in 1875, The latter never ap to have considered it of much le efficacy, abd therefore be did not resist Tusen’s ideas, but with them to the President. Tbe plan, however, is important as showing what MeDonalé and Joyce seared, and bow zealous Bab- cock was to promote a revocation of the ‘The epeéches—for they cannot be cal-| tontot Hi ‘shine has been golden.

We shall see. ‘The air is full of ramors of impending Cabinet changes when the result of the trial ig decided, but they seem to a8 to be deserving of little ‘attention. Why should the verdict of the jury, whatever it -be, require or justify Mr. Bristow's resignation! If he bas been thwarted by the President in the prosecution (of whieh there is no evidence), he should have resigned, if at all, when the ob- struction was interposed. He was meek, so faras the public is informed, under the revocation of the-supervieor order, under the dismissal of Henderson aud under the recent mysterious proclamation of the Attorney-General, He has en- dared Bubeock in the White House. He has been nimoved by the President's solemn oath that, in his opinion, Babcock ia an innocent man. bat, then, can the jary have to do in deciding bis fature relations tothe Treasury? And it will furthermore be observed that there in not a particle of evidence that be bas been aggressive, or even iviative, againt Bab- cock, or tha: the President has intimated that he had better stay bis hand. If the President had so intimated, or if he and the President had differed over Babcock’s guilt, or by assent this difference had been referred to the jury, the Secretary might, iu case of acquittal, feel bound in honor to tender his resignation. A disa- greement would be a drawn bet. And finally, the verdict of the jury will bave very little political effect as between the two great parties contending for the Presidency, for the reason that it cannot change men’s couvictious as to the stus pidity of the White buuse, or the mis- management which has since 1861 mark- ed the collection of the revenue, whether iuternal or external. A Tieasary which tolerates the appoiutment of Leet, first as store-kceper and next as a deputy collec- cor at a port like Jersey City, cannot ¢x~ cite much popular enthusiasm among right-minded people, no matter what may be the verdict of juries.—N. Y. World. —-— ~4Doe _ 8UN AND SHADOW. There are no outpourings of sunebine in this complex world of ours which have not their correspoadiug shadows. If we revel io this fraity lusciousuers of summer, we shiver in the icy barreaness of winter; and the Ludding hopes. of spring, when all is magnificent because unknown, are followed by the closing days of autamn, where incompleteness is disappointed, not otentially. Every happiness we enjoy ae its special misery, iis parasite or dou- ble made to its own shape. And love itself, the cent:al sun of our sky, without whieh life would have neither spring-tide nor summer, flings the deepest shadow of all. What else are the doubts and fears, the sick jealousies, the sad forebodiugs, that go before apd.atters and bew ia on all sides this royal Lord of Souls? Boy aud girl, man and woman, who amoug loyers laughs forever in the sunshine unsadden- ed by the shadow? Ouly in heaven can we picture a love so perfect in eplendor as to havé none of these troubles checker- ing its radiant path. On earth we have asmany clouds as rays, and starless nights ae long ae our most eunny days Lover's quarrels come like summer storas, desolating bower and garden, fruitful field, and sheltering wood, for the time they last. Sometimes, indeed, they are like tropical tornadves, leaving a desert where they found a paradise; if at others they do no more harm {han that which an hour’s sunshine can repair —clouds that a smile can disperse, tears that a kiss cin dry. Batat the beet they are not leasant breaks in the biae heaven of bes. in spite of the old Latin proverb which mukes these lovers’ quarrels dear loves’ renewing. To our minds, the tran- qall peace of sunshine—sanshine always unbroken ee the long sammer’s dey till evening, and the final setting ends all: thet ie, trath, belief, bearing and forbear- iog,; patience where patience is needed, avd tender consideration for the beloved, thinking no evil and offering no despite— is better than the fierce pain and agonized tarmoil of a quarrel, even with its healing raptures of reconciliation, But worse than the worst of these temporary storms is the terrible darkness of separation, whether tor a season by circumstance, 07 forever by death—and sometimes forever poy circumstance, too—whereby the guo ot life goes,ont, and only the gloom the night is left us. wherein to walk.

Bat your lives ron far a- part, and there is no_fording place, , no point or junction, and no bridging over the iuteryeniog space possible for either. You meet just for that oné runoy hour, and then you part; and the sorrow of the loss is as great as the joy of the gain hae been. It is so rare, -you think, to find one of whom you felt you could make a real, trae, endearing friend, Aud now. to have seen your pleasant prize, to have held it in your hand for those few days, and ‘to have to lay it duwn again, and» go out in the desert of your loneliness unac- companied as before! Is notthat a pang? Surely yes; quite as sharp in its way as others of which more account is mado, Old-established friendship, too, bas its shadow like this newer kind which is not rooted in eocial- possibilities; its shadow again like love, though it hae not ihe rest- lessuess, the quick dissatisfaction, the ar- bitrary requiremente of love. Your friend —God bless ber !—is not yoar queen, nor yet your Egeria. She may be old and ugly, with a waist like a wheat~euck or a body like a broomstick—what do you care, you who demand flawless loveliness in the Aphrodite you paint as your queen confessed, or in the Egeria concealed and adored, to whom you write sonnets in the moonlight? To your fastidious taste, a gray hair in Aphrodite's golden tresses would be a mortal stab, and a wrinkle iu Egeria’s satin skin would be like a fur- row traced by death bimself. Bat the dear old friend may wax or wane, and you feel only the deep love for her as age makes her feeble in frame, yet more pre- cious iu soul, And when death comes to finish the work of time, you know that you have lost what nothing can replace. Her sympathy, ber affection, her intelligence, the warm “afterglow” which radiated from her as the reflection cast by her loving heart and yoang experience, who will give you those good thiugs as liberally as she gave them | —she who had watehed your career with the love of a a mother and the pride of a sister, and who kuew your worth before the world had taken cognizance of your existence ? Her friendebip wus the sansbine, ber death is the shadow; and there has been friends betore now in the shadow of whose tombs life has grown eold, and the harvest of happiness has falien ever short for want of the dear heart lying withio. This, too, is the sun that must needs be accompan- ied by its shadow, anlese fortune is ex- ceptionally kind. No one enjoys life with such keen and educated pe-ceptions of beauty as an ar- tist. He is one of the few people whose eyes areopened and who go uboat the world seciug. Bat Le bas his shadow all! the sam:; and bis enjoyment is some- times dearly bought by bis corresponding diegust. Where people without au edu cated seuse see brillianey of coloring, he wrihes under the infliction of crudenese, vulgarity, and a false’chrotmatic scale all through. Where a florid bit of cast-iron work, say, is praised as rich or pretty, he feels ready to tear his hair at the propa- gation of monstrosities vot a line of whieh is right. He does not envy the callous- ness, the ignorance of his inartistic friends nor wish to be as easily pleased as they. But his brighter sun of knowledge has its shadow in despair at the work of iguo- raoce; and, though he basks in the suns shine of a greater delight than the ignorant know when he meets with beauty, still the meeting with itat all is rare, while ugliness and bad taste are ubiquitous. Again, take the poet — ‘Hidden In the light of theaght, Singing byinus anbidden, Bil the world ie wrought To syinpathy with hope and fear is needed not.” * Weaving lovely fancies companioned with wasic aud more or less of conscious song, interpreting men’s thoughts to themselves by the ever-present activity of hie own— people think we must meed be happy, bav- ing at command euch beaatifal vigions, such subtle, far-stretehing sheaghts "Bes the converse?

He sings like the ewan in the agonies of death; and when he most deeply stirs, it is the eclio of his agony which shakesthem. He has higher eojoyment than others, traly. He loves more, rejoices more, ie gladder, aud by so much the wearer to heaven than other men. Bat he down into the lowest depth of despair, where the thicker- skioued uce not aware that they are un- comfortable; aud the shadow which falle on his brightoess is blacker than the shad- ow which falls on the suushine of any one else.

WHAT THEGREAT GERMAN OR. GAN SAYS. The Westliche Post is undoubtedly the representative organ of the German ele~ ment of this ci:y, and the name of its editor, Carl Schurz, at the head of its columos, entitles its editorial utterances to more than the ordisary respect which its large circulation alone would justify. When it is remembered that the associate of ex-Senator Schurz in the editoral sanc- tum is vo less a ‘person than Dr, Emil Preetoriogs, one of the most distinguished German philosophers of the country, who,. asa journalist, carefully weighs every word he writes, our readers will share our own astonishment at the grave charges that paper receutly preferred. They were four in number, to wit : 1. That Judge Treat, of the United States District Court, sympathizes with the Whiskey Ring. 2. That Jadge Dillion of the United States Cireuis Court, sympathizes atill more with the Whiskey Ring 3. That his charge to the jary in the McKee case was inspired, if uot dictated, by President Grant, 4 That the whiskey frauds themaclves were carried ou, if not, in the name, at least directly by order, of President Grant himeelf. Of course both ex-Senator Seburz and Dr. Preetorious are personally reepongible, for these exceedingly grave charges. But lest we should do oar German coutempor- ary injustice, we will again translate iis own words trom T'weéday’s Post, printed editorially and-prominenily : Sadly disappointed have those been who expected frous Judge Dillion less sympa- thy for the Whiskey Ring than waa man- ifesied by Jadge Treat, Dillion’s charge, which, if not directly dictated by the execative in Washington, was certaiuly,in consonance with ite well known sentiments, was the most shame- less bid for ati acquittal which was ever witnessed in ahy cuart of # secre The conviction of McKee—right. aod jast in every respect as it was —will cause cousiderable trembling and gnashing of teetin among the big guaa of Washington. ‘They certain}y did, not.expect, such a re- sult, bat mow the. ball. which is dea- tined to crush them is irresistibly rolling toward them. It.13 perfectly plain that a wan of McKeée’s, wealth ‘and immense so- cial iuflaence woald'not hayé risked every- thing for a few’ paltry dollars. The only: explanation for se¢h condueton the part of so shrewd © politician'is that be knew the Whiskey Ring was a perfectly: safe thing, that he was,in possession of iafors matien and keew that the Ring was or~ gevized and mauaged from Washington, if not in the name, at least dn bebalf and, by order of the. President, Aud so the motio must remaiu: “Lot us feach high- er still 1" 7 It will be in Vain to think that with conviction of MeéKee jastice “should ‘be satisfied, and ibBubcock & Cu., shoald now be handled with gloves; then public opinion will bave more sympathy than condemustion for McKee as a comparay. tively innocent vic im. — oe - Gen. Sherman, fn a letter to Gen. Custer approving, of bie plan of writing his war memories, alludes to a letter written by Gen. Lee. The following is an extract from the letter, which was written by Gen: Lee to a friend: in Warm Spring, Va., and is dated July 27, 1868: “As regards the movements of Gen, Sherman, it was. easy to.'see that unless they were interrupted I should be com- pelled to abandon the defense of Rich- mond; and with @ view of erresting his progress I ga weakened my fotce by sen- ding reioforeemeénts to Sozth and North Oarolina, that I-had not stfficiont ‘men to ken, I should have abaudoned them’ as soon as Gen.

Perhaps if the stockholders in ‘the Company would attend the nex: regular meeting in persou, instead of by prory, as heretofore, and take this subject under consideration, discussion might léed to something of importance in the right direction. It ig marvelous to many iuter- ested persons, why gas cannot be produerd here as cheap asany where. Cord wood, rosio, and invested funds are all as cheap here as anywhere else in the State or the country. Skilled labor is also at a low price, if any such is required in this busi ness. ‘These questious, togethet with all that relates to the general aubjeet, should be considered with the view of ascertain- ing, if possible,.the cause rendering it necessary to charge double the rates for gas usually paid in other cities. _-—— ~~ HAIL COLUMBIA.

This insect is what is commonly called the louse. It is very small, green in color, sticks close in the boot and inner side of the green leaves, on the juices of which it feeds. Seems to. have very little life, moving slowly when disturbed. The plant is soon robbed of its vitality, turns yellow and dies. Some of the insecta acquire wings and can probably fly. . What‘ds it, and what is to come of it? We learn tuat they are more destructive on thin soils than on rich. A Newly Married Pair—Mr.J. G. Heilig, | of Salisbury, was married in Wilmington, on Wednesday night or early yesterday morning, to Miss Lilly Eilers, of that city, and arrived here last evening by the Carolina Central train, with his bride. They stopped at the Central Hotel, and will Jeave by this morning’s train for Salisbury.—Charlotte Observer. The Odserver is mistaken about this couple’s returning to Salisbury. They went on to New Orleans to attend Mardi Gras and will not arrive here until next week some time. John Heilig is an A,? boy, and we wish him long life and happiness in the double harness.

In June, of that year, they set out from New York with one hundred large and lively lobsters, with the intention of acy climatiziug them in the Bay of San Francisco. All save seven of the lobsters died on the journey, and those seven ar- rived iu an exhausted condition. They slowly crawled away when placed on the shore-of the bay, and“there was a differ- ence of opinion among the Commissioners as to the sesultof the expesim Aa each lobster bore about a quart of eggs at the time of introduction to the bay, the question was one which a year wuuld be likely to eettle. If either of the lobsters lived, the eggs she bore would yield a million lobsters, and these would soon be learn that Messrs. Meroney have engaged the services of Mr. J. Gilmer Kerner, an | experienced and ekillful workman, t»| paint scenery for their spacious ball. Mr. | Kerner has just finished a landscape scene which does him much eredit. Travelling theatricals, on their way from Raleigh to the Hub (around which the business interests of the State revolve with lightning-like rapidity), would do well to stop at Salisbury, where they will receive first-class accommodations. Snow Controvenrsy.— We lcarn from the Charlotte Demoerat of a controversy between that paper and the Statesville American as to the date of a certain snow storm in 1857, one putting it on the 20th January and the other on the 12th March. The big storm of that year, according to our files, must have commenced on Saturday the 17th January. The railroads were obstructed and the mails | failed to come through from the 18th to the 22d. The Snow plow and three engines to drive it were three or four days clearing the | track, Crawford and Miller, have a large steam saw mill near China Grove in this county and are | turning out quantities of lumber for the Salis- | borf'aad Concord markets, and which they find it as cheap, or cheaper, to haul by wagons as toship by Rail.

They were not satisfied, however, and got at it again in the yard, drawtng bat_her knives. Again they were parted.—A short.time after, Mr. James met one of them in the passages some words were passed between them, which caused Mr. Jaines to kick the darkey, who drew his knife. Mr. J. went down to the hall and got his revolver, just as the nig made his appearance in the door, Mr. J. deliberately walked up to him, preseuted his pistol in the face of the nig and suaped. Mr. Lanier, (the other clerk) ran towards thein, and was nearly between the two when Mr. J. fired. In his haste, he fired just about tof an inch above the darkey's head— the ball taking effect in the ceiling near the front door, and then taking to himself wings, Mr. J. soared to parts unknown. Rowan Rifle Guards.—Where are they? We want tosee them on the streets; they haye not been oa parade fur some time. | They ought to be 1n good trim by the 30th of May.

Wm. W. Belkoap then Secretary of War that they found it their duty to lay the same before the House. They farther report that this day at 10 o’clock a leticr the President of the United States was presenied to the Committee acgepting the résignation of the Secretary of War to gethdr with'a gopy of his leiter of resigna- tion Which the President informed the committee was accepted about 10.20 this morning.

THE TESTIMONY — CLYMEK'S VOICE TREM- BLEs. Mr. Clymer proceeded to read the tes- timony of Oaleb P. Marsh showing he had paid Secretary Belknap about $20, 000 in consideration of his appoiutmeat as post tracer at Fort Sill, Indiana ‘Ter~ ritory. ‘The reading was heard\with in- tense interest by the members of the House and a large audience ia the galle- sies. In the more pathetic portions of the narrative Mr. Ciymer was frequently forced by his feelings to panse uutil bis voiee recovered from its trewulousvess and himself from his agitation. Mr. Clymer followed the report in a short speech saying that Belknap was but the proper outgrowth and the expo- nent.of the corruption, the extravagance and misgovernment that had cursed this land for years past. Robbins of North Carolina pleaded his mental. and physical exhaustion from hard service on the committee for not ad- dressing the Honse at any length. He spoke of the thiog as a disgrace aud shame to the American people. And as to the question of impeachability of an officer who bad resigned be would only say ic could not be trae that an officer who was being investigated and bad been found a criminal could flee from justice. He wiladed to what’ he “ad terned \the unscemingly acceptance of Belknap's resignation and referred tg, the Luglieh cases .of Warren Hastings and Lord Francis Bacon both of whom bad been ched after they committed the crime. everal other members spoke to the report of the committee.

Y. World. _——-. — ——— PLAINNESS OF SPEECH. —_— — These observations from an article in “Blackwood” published some years since, are illustrated at the present time by the great work at the © Hip- rome: “There are far worse dangers to be apprehended in the matter of pulpit oratory’ than familiar illastrations and honest, plain-spoken English. Firing over the heads of a congregation is) a far more common fault, and much léss exor ible, than firing point-blank in- to tueir consciences, even at some slight risk of falling into the coarse pe ue. Rowland Hill (who certainly did not himself sin on the side of over-refinement) was right enough when he said: ‘I don’t like those mighty fine preachers, who so beautifully round off the sinner’s con- science.’ ‘When I preach,’said Luth- er, ‘I sink myself deeply down: I re- gard neither doctors nor, masters, of whom there are in the church about forty; but I have an eye to. the miul- titude of young people, children, and servants, of whom there are more than two thousand.’ It is hardly too much to say that two-thirds of every ., ser- mon that is preached ia practitally unintelligible to an audience of eek ingmen. Neither the words, nor the ideas, nor the formation of the sen- teinces, are what they are accustomed to. It is quite true, that such audi- ences by no means to fine Jan- guage, if it be sonorous] y) delivered; and there are plenty of stories current as to the imposing effect of a sounding polyyrtiabls; or-even 4 scrap of Latin, pon ignorant hearers, But if the nlpit trumpet is to call to the real pap of hfe it it must at least utter an intel gible i ere ra ceuaiaphedear seeker tre to hve any effect on the| me dt alan ote oe annealed "ey wou OVF eee irae COLE i a a “wat i Nadel an ehecticad of the ebylocks shapes oy with a en see? ee et wives and | while your pega ane ast the nt Ta tHe wo to cut loose from the old rotten dynast of Demotmttic fyrany and assert hinitelf freeman ? t ' k 0 | ear it ready” to toto * ithe eae fens ‘Our’ Aietersrct open. ‘The zi ites appeal to the white working men and mechanics of N, G. jo better times is as fallacious as, are all others of that paper.

Heilig, Tuesday evening, was one of the most bril- liant affairs transpiring here since the late unpleasantness between north and south. The faces ofall wore gracious smiles of Pleasure, as they mingled in the throng to congratulate the happy bride and groom, her rippling laugh occasionally ringing out above the huniof théincessant mirth of the delighted guests. To the credit of the host and hostess, we Must.say this party was an oasis in the usu- ally rather inanimate society of our city, and its fascinations wil linger long in the Memory of those who enjoyed their splen- did hospitality. We eannot refrain showing a glimpse of the dining room: ‘The table (which filled the room) was an H in form, and in the cen- Wr of the cross table connecting the two tides, was a pyramid of blooming flowers, “*Pped with the bride’s cake, which was sbout 2+ feet high, om awoctagonal. base, ai- nate sides of which ‘bore the monogram Of the bappy pair in gold and silver ; above this were rich. and tare. designs wrought in King.

That we should act wisely and prudently—with a full knowledge of the situation will be conceded by all who have at heart the good of our dear old state. Wy wantin the first place to aroqse the great masses of our party 80 aa lo have their hearty co-operation and zealous support in every movement made on the pulitical chess board, Without this our leaders can do nothing and without this we may expect nothing but cer- tain defeat. Now in order to-secare this much desired end, | beg to make a aingle suggestion: For the last two or three years there has been a great cry in our party that scheming and de- tsigning persons have been “packing our con- ventions for their own and their friends’ benetit —that the party ix used to give the individuals place and power—that we-have “rings in the | party,” d&e., &e. one, and that out succens d a ne ing this thing up is no Tess thie.

Please al- low me to say all those I ever knew who were most intimate with P. 8. Ney, believed with Mr. Honston, that he was Marshal Ney. My brother, O. G. Foard, was pupil of his and boarded with him at Mr. Thos. Foster’s, in Davie, in 1833, and afterwards boarded Mr. Ney at Rowan Mille, where he (Ney) died. My brother, Dr. W. A. Locke, who was also intimate with the old Frenchman, and many others, believed he would have ahowh to the world that he was the Marshal Ney of Napo- leon’s army bad the Bonaparte Family regain- ed the French crown in his day. When the heir appdrent to the crown died in 1832 or 33 P. S. Ney dismissed his school in Davie, and took a spree for three weeks; de- siroy ed a trunk full of papers, and was heard | say many things looking to that fact. I often tried to draw him out on the subject as did others, but to no purpose.

Their purchase | ‘of teas by the cargo was traced down to one or two purchases of half-chests atthe time, and that not from large dealers, but at second-hand from re- tailers, ‘with whom of ‘course it: was necessary for them to divide the profit.

But the dif- fieulty is that the Grangers are not aware of these facts, these essential points of trade knowledge. Instead of trusting to honest dealers, whose business it is to. make the necessary discriminations, they have just gone mad in pursuit of the . phantom of {cheapmess, and consequently fall an easy prey to dealers who, have no scruples about practising upon their ignorance and folly. It is the essen- tial evil of this whole Grange move- ment that in their attempts at “agen- cies,” “co-operation,” and the like, they are thrown right at the start out- side of the line of business which the legitimate and reputable trade is will- ing to do, and necessarily becomes victims of sharpers and dealers ey of havd né boheern ué nah their opera re ibd ta charhctef pee See. offers the bighest ‘possible premium 7 dishonesty by starting out with a = of operations in' which it is im ble for respectable dealers to join ds with them.

Chicago, March 4.— Lt ia reported here that the part which Geo. ‘I’. Robinson, of Bahimore, and Geo. A. Armes have ta- ken in the Belknap. disgrace ‘bas led to the examination of the army records which show that they both lost their pla- ces in the army through their own scan- dalous practices upan charges preferred by superior officers asd after fortial court marshal anc not throagh (the “inetramen- tality of the Inte Seeretary. Geo. T. Robinson was captain in the LOth caval- ry and was arraigned before a legal court marslal at St. Loais, Oet, 284.1874, on the charge of traud againet the gov- ernment, which frand consisted in diaw- ing his pay repeatedly for the same month. The cour tshows a series of frauds extend- ing over two years of time practiced not only apon the government at New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Galveston and other points, but for false charges of goods and medical practice. Robinson also did. not hesitate each time he drew |} his pay to commit perjury. ‘The court found him guilty and passed the‘ fallow ing sentence: ‘‘And the court does therefore sentence Capt. Geo. T. Rebin- ion 10.h cavalry, to be cashiercd and to forfeit the regular pay and allwoance now due and to have his crime, name and place of abode published in and about St. Louis.’’ George Armes was also captain in the 10th cavalry and was tried by court mar- shal at’ Leavenworth, Ky, March 12th 1870 and was. dismiesed from the service by the command of General Sherman. The court tound him guilty of conduct unbecomirg an officer, the offence being the exhibition of obscene pictares to fe» male servante at the post. Armes was also guilty of other offences such as lying. ~—_—_>— Tae Dey anp THE Knieut. —A Chris- tian Knight was playing at draw. poker with the Dey of Algiers for a monareh’s ransom.

The betting was loug and arduous, bat, finally, the Christian, not desiring to prolong the agony of his Lrave opponent, called bim. What then, was his surprise when the Dey brought forth four Kings and, an ace, the ace that he bad so prudently placed on hia own knee, while -his own hand consisted of three aces, a Queen and the seven of diamonds.

Minister Schenck drags the flag ofthe United States through the gutters of London in order to from a British court, bnt that was an exceptions. McDonald went to jail, a deceased but moat trusted friend of the President was named as a party in a ‘plundering conspiracy, and the President's private secretary was in- dicated, and was saved from the penitentiary only by the evidence of the President, and a moat extraordinary order from the Attorney- General preventing evidence for the govern- ment; but there, it was charitably said, were exception. Jhen the private sacretary, thas uitted, visits the convict McDonald in his eel, and returns to announce to the Senate of the Lnited States “a menage from the Presi- dent,” and even while these words from lips so long silent in the prisoner's dock, were ret echving through the Senate chamber, and Sen- ators were crowding to congratulate him. uport his escape from State’s prison, in another room of the Capitol a witness was presenting, under oath and with unanswerable documentary evi- dence, the proof that the Secretary of War had for years been selling offices in his. depart- ment.” The editor of the Wilmington Post is, however, the madest Republican we have heard from. He went into Belknap like fury : Gave hint a sound eastigation for his disgraceful conduct in taking bribes, And after doing his duty on him, was evidently not satisfied—probably felt that the case was sadly against his party and ought to be relieved in some way, and so he turned his battery in s»sther direc- tion : Turee Sweet Bases.—Honorable William M.

Vance, ex- Governor of North Carolina, who is such a dirty blackguard that respecta- ble people won’t allow him in their es. Thus we see how the exposures at Washington is firing the passions of Republican editors. “RINGS.” If there are any, let names and evidence be given.

Mock was called to the chair, and the fullowiug geutlemen were select- ed as judges: Capt. W. H Crawford, Wm. M. Kincaid and Col. T. B. Long. When all was ready, Mr. Owen opened the argument, tho’ he was unwell, held out manfully for nearly two hours, using great force of argument, and quoting largely from history, oecasionally throw- ing in little witticiems in his inimitable way. During thie speech the feeling of the audience was completely under the control of the orator, sometimes causing the welkin to ring with shouts of applause, and again, the eyes of some filled with tears at the mention of George's immortal name. Just in the midst of one of these effective speeches, the ery of firé “rang throagh the house, the wildest excitement prevailed fora few moments; it proved, however, to be a false alarm, only a chim- ney burning.

This Elkins is the Seiehe of Henry G. Davia, Democratic Senator from West Virginia, who his side of the cham- ber to aid the bill on the ground hat ‘two Democrats would come to the Sens ate. | By this arrangement the family would achieve the object of their ambi- %° | tion, though one of the parties to it must be inevitably cheated. No good ereven plausible reason ean he assigned for making New Mexico a State. It is a barefaced job in the inter- est of an organized gang of thieves. Ac- cording to the exaggerated census of 1870, made to order by officials wholly unwor~ thy of trust, the population was returned at 94,874, composed of Mexicans, Span- iards, Indians, “greasere,” and adventur- ers of all kinds, who follow the the army and float along the frontier. Of “this population about one-tenth only speak the English language and have the habits of our civilizatiun, so that in fact, about nine or ten thousand people who have drifted down into New Mexico during the last qaarter of a century, are now coolly asking fur two Senators aud a Re ntative iu Congress! util the admission of Nebraska and Nevada, the law was stringent and care~ fully drawn for adding new States to the Union. ‘The departure in those cases was prompted by a partisan object only, and to give the Republicans an ae ey in the Senate, whereby all their vio- lent meazures could be passed over the oppositinn of the minority. ‘They suc- eveded for a time, aud the country to-day is prostrate under the baleful effects of some of that extreme legislation. It is now proposed to apply a similar process to New Mexico, and to put in the hands of three men, holding their places at the discretion of Grant, which practi- cally means at the will of Elkins and his Territorial Rig, the absolute control of the political machinery for organizing the proposed State Governmeut. The fol- lowing extracts from the bill tell the whole story so plainly that he who runs may read the design: “Sec. 3. All persons qualified by law to vote for representatives to the General Assembly of said Territory at the date of the passage of this act, shall be qualified to be elected, and they are hereby authorized \o yote for and choose representatives to forn: a conventiin, under such rules and regulations as the Governor of said Territory, the Chief Justice,and the Uai- ted States Attorney thereof may prescribe.” What constitutes a qualified voter in New Mexico remains to be determined by the Supreme Caurt, before which this very question is now pending. In the mean time the Governor, tbe Chief Jus- tice, and the District Attorney are cm- powered to make the “rules and regala- tious” for electing a convention without any eheck or supervision by a revising power. Again: “Said apportionment shall be made for said Teritrory by the Governor, the Uuited States District Attorney, and the Chief Justice, or any two of them ; and the Governor of said Terri- tory shall, by proclamation, order an election of the representatives aforesaid, to be held throughout the Territory at such time as shall be fixed by the Governor, Chief Justice, and United States Attorney, or any two of them, which proclamation 1 be issued within ninety days from the passage of this act, and at least sixty days prior to the time of said elec- tion.” When it is known that the area of New Mexico is 121.201 square miles, equal to 77,000,000 acres ; that there are no railroads in the Territory, and that the means of communication are limited through a sparsely settled country, the deceptions of this scheme stand revealed. No fair election could be held, because no proper notice could be given to be followed by preparation within the pre- acibed time. ‘The bill is therefore a fraud, which was concocted to give El- kins and bis Ring associates complete direction of the whole organizing power, just as Kellogg bas directed the frauda~ lent registration in Louisiana through his purchased tools. These rotten boroughs are the bane of national legislation. ‘They are the dregs that rose to the eurface in the violent fermentation of civil war, yet their votes have determined many of the most im- tant questions. ‘Ihe population of ebraska, Nevada, and New Mexico is as follows : Nebraska - - - - - Nevada - - New Mexico ~ 122,993 ss ¢ SaRA9l —_—_—— -——- Total -- - + 257,358 Uader the ratio of representation in the House of Representative—131,000— these three existing and proposed States jon for more than two members. Yet with New Mexico they would have six Senators, and offset the votes of New York, Penn: eylvania, and Ohio, with twelve millione people and eighty representatives in foveed, as by its enforcement others are detecred from the commissicn of crime. In your case there is no excuse. You are no ordinary thief. You enjoy the confi- dence of the Government, ki ou betray - ed the trust placed in you. tee crime is on account of this betrayal more serious. I am sure after your confession that you took the money. ‘The sentence of the Coort is that you suffer imprisonment at hard labor in the Albany county peni- tentiary for the period of four years. The prisoner bowed and was aboat to take his seat. ‘The Court added : I might also impose a fine of some thousands of dollars on you, but you have lost most of the money yoo stole, so I will not im poee the fine. The prisoner then walked to his seat, and Mr. Henkle, his counsel, asked to file a motion to suspend the execution of the sentence. ‘I'he Court answered that he might file such a motion with the, mo- tion for a new trial ; that there would be 2 anusual baste in burrying the prisoner off. W. H, Ottman, charged with the lar- ceny of $47,000 from the Treasary, and receiving stolen and embezzled money, was next put oa lis trial, afteran effort to hinve the proceedings postponed until Monday in consequence of the absence of ex-Senator Carpenter, who is of counsel for Ottman. _— —_~boe—— FREEDMEN'S SAVING BANK. It appears, says the New York Sun, that in the course of the investigation into the affuirs of the Frcedmen'’s Saving Bauk, now in progress, one of the former officers of the swindling concern acknow!l- edged that $300,000 of the deluded de- sitors’ money was taken for political nse in 1872, when Grant was running for bis secund term. Lf thé whole history of the canvass of that year could be wiit- ten, it would be the most shocking siory of wholesale fraud and corruption the country bas ever known. The whisky ring exposures have affurded some light upon the means used by the Grant’ party to swell their corruption fund, though bat a small part of the truth has been made known. Many of the worst facts never will be proved, ifthe policy adopted by Grant aud Pierrepont to intimidate wit- nesses is allowed to prevail. But ubout the meanest part of the whole business was that stealing of the poor freedmeu's saving to use for the purpose of keeping the venal administration crowd in power, with coutinued opportuaities for plunder- ing and oppressing the people. THE —S>- COUNTY TAXES AND THE RECENT DECISION. The recent decision of the Supreme Court of North Carolina, in the matter of taxation, is of great importance to county officers. We . oa not seen the opinion of the Court, but are indebted to the Wilmington Eveving Review for the fol- lowing synopsis which, our contemporary says, is the meaning of the decision : 1. ‘Taxation for State and county ex- penses combined cannot exceed 66 2-5 cents on the $100 valuation. 2. The current expenses must be kept within the limits of the levy as above. In the case of any county, therefore the exponses at present cannot exceed 28} cents per anuom. 3. “That any new debt created sioce the adoption of the present State Consti- tution by any county, must be paid out of the amount levied for county expenses 4. ‘That any old debt must be paid, as well as the interest on old debts, aud the power of the Couaty Commissioners to levy sufficient tax to meet such priuci- pal money aud interest, is ‘affirmed. 5. ‘That every dollar levied and col- lected for the payment of old debts, must be appropriated to the legitimate purpose of payment of interest of the old debt and for no other debt, claim or demand. If this decision is correct then our peo- ple have been payiug exorbitant and ille- gal taxes for the past eight years, aud even the county tax assessed in Wayne cmhnty the present year (38 éents on the $100 worth valaation) isin exeess of the limit allowed by the Supreme Court, in the case of Griffin atid others, by the Commissioners of Pasquotank, holding that the Beard of County Commissioners have no power ta exceed the Constita- tional limitation. of 66} cents on the $100 valuation for State and coanty expenses. In this ease it appeared that the taxes levied for the expenses of the county government, if restricted tu the Consti- tutional Jimitation would be entirely inad- uate to defray the necessary expenses of the county.

Beoke afterward caw the form of a solitary man upon the wrecked vessel amid the liftings of he storm. Then the schooner d off the heach and went to the north a short nee and again she strack upon the beach. Beebe saw the sailor on the stranded vessel hurry from the lee of her quar- ter and spring on the main ng. He climed for the mast, and his voice could be heard distinctly as he shouted foraid. Beebe made mgnsto him to go toward the bow, and the sailor obeying the directions ran down to the deck and climbed iuto the foretop mast and shrieked: “Save me: for God's sake save me!” Beebe then ran north along the beach to [.ife Saving Station No. 1, and the crew of that station burried down and met the men of Station No. 2, who had arrived in the mean- time. once. The mortar bearing a life live was fired and the bomb fell over the bow of the schooner. The man in the seemed to pay no attention to the line that had falien below him, but still stood at the masthead and shrieked, “Ged save me" His cries gradually grew fainter and fainter and as the storm of snow sliutin closer he could be seen only at intervals. At length there came a tremendous storm-buret from qhe south. A black, overwhelming sea caught the vessel and lifted her fairly out of the waves. She was crushed iike an egg shell. Her spars shot up toward the dark sky, and the form of the safior trembled for a momentand then dropped out of sight in the chaos of billows. His last ery was he: rd distinctly as he shrieked, ‘Oh, for God's sake, beip! oh, help!" ‘Then the clouds of the snow storm swept down thick, and nothing more could be seen. An attempt had been made by the life-saving crews to jaunch th> life boat, but just as the craft was pushed into the watera a great villow jammed it upon the shore, and the heavy boat was caught ¥ and carried far inland and smashed into pieces. No other efforts were made ‘tor the rescue of the crew.—N. ¥. Sux. Then followed a lengthy account of other heart-rending disasters along the coast, and of heavy losses of property on the land in differ- ent parts of the country. abe . Gas Lighting in New York City. Fifty-one years ago the gas was first lighted in bouse of Samual Leggett, the then president of the New York Gas Light Company, at No. 7 Cherry street, now Franklin square. In honor of that event the company, on February 28, 1876, reduced the price of gas from $275 to $2 50 per 1,000 feet, which is the lowest price at which gas has ever been sold on this island. During all these years the fire that was lighted when the company started has never been allowed to expire ; aud when in 1874 the works were remov- ed from Canal and Center streets, the burning coals were transported to the present location at 21st street, East river. —_>--— Killed by Meteor. Au intelligent black boy was trudging along a highway at night iu the vicinity of Palestine Texas. ‘There was a negro woman riding a horse in the direction. in which the boy was going. The intelli- gent black boy re-appeared in Palestine that night out of breath and as pale as he could get. He said he saw a ball of fire come out of the sky and strike the woman and set her ablaze. ‘The horse ran one way with the woman afire ou his back, and he ran back (to town to tell the people what had happened. The people went to look after farther particulars of this curious incident. ‘They found the woman lying ou the ground with alt of her clothing burnt off, but with life enough in ber to tell that she had been struck in the breast by a ball of fire. The horse was found with bis mane singed,and the woman died the next day. ‘The ‘people thiuk she was hit by a meteor—St. Louis Republican. ee MIND IN PLANTS. Tis my faith that ever flower Enjoys the air it breathes.” So wrote Wordsworth long ago, and very often the poet's prophetic spirit’ an- ticipates resulta which slowly demonstra- ting Science arrives at only after many years of patient observation and logical deduction ‘ts it possible that Word«- worth’s faith in the capacity of vegetation td enjoy was really such an anticipation, that the conseieusuess which enjoy- ment presupposes is iu any degree a function of plants ? There is certainly a growing disposition on the part of scientific meu to accept sach a position, and the evidenee in sup- port of it has already become too abandant to be overlooked or despised. As Dr. Fobes Winslow has remarked, vegetable life is so universally assumed to be, as a matter of course, unconscious that it uppears to many a mere folly to express a doabt of the corsectness of the assumption. But he continces, let a close observer and admirer of flowers waich carefully their proceedings om the as- suwption that they not only feel but en- joy life, and he will be strack with the immense array of facts which may be ad- duced in support of it. Endow them hypothetically with censciousness, and ie Herold, well as stripes.—| en Fe and they are yudoubtedly iu the same category altogether ate end, not differing in nature, perba from those of the lower animals. Probe. bly, be adds with characteriatic cautious- ness, life is essentially the same in the two kingdoms; and to vegetable life fac. ulties are superadded in the lower animals, some of which are here and there indis- tinctly foreshadowed in plants. Darwin has observed in the drosera rotur ijfolia a faculty for selecting its food, which in animals would certainly be at- tributed to volition. Mrs. Treat has de- scribed the same trait in the plant. On Both lifesaving crews went to work at Pbeing deceived by the means of a piece of chalk, the drosera carved its stalk glands towards it, but, immediately discovering its mistake, withdrew them. The plant would bend toward a fly held within reach, erfold it, and suck its juices ; bat would disregard the bait if out of reach, showing not only purposive movement (or a refus~ al to move, as the case wight warrant), but also a certain power of estimating dis- tance. Again, Darwin has shown that the more perfect tendri! bearers among climb: ing plants bend toward or from the light, or disregard it, as may be most advanta- geous. Also, that the tendrils of various climbers frequently attached themselves to objects presented to them experimen- jally, but soon withdrew on finding the support unsuitable. He says of the bdig- nonia caprelata that its tendrils “soon re~ coiled, with what L can only call disgust,” from a glasa tube or a zine plate, and straightened themselves. Of another big- nonia, he saye that the terminal part of the tendril exhibits an odd habit, which in an animal would be ealled an instinct, for it continually searches for any little dark hole in which to insert itself. The same tendril would frequently withdrew from one hole and insert its point in anoth- er. Iu like manner, spirally twining plants seem to search for proper supports, reject- ing those not suitable. Speaking of phenomena of this sort, Dr. Lindsay makes this strong remark : “Iu carnigorous and climbing plants, there is a choice or alternative between action or inaction, acceptance or refusal; and the choice made is not always judicious. There may be an error, and the error may be corrected ; but in order to such cor-~ rection, there must surely be some kind of consciousness or perception that a mis- take has been committed : an exercise of will in oiaking further efforts at suc- cess, and a knowledge of means to an end, with their proper adaptation or applica- tion.” According to Professor Laycock, organ- ic memory is common to both animals and plants, and certain lianas seem to exhibit it in a marked degree in their antipathy to certain trees. ‘The botanist Brown has remarked that the trees which the lianas refuse to coil round are physically iucap- able of supporting the climbers. Aad not only do many plants aet, ae ote might say, reasonably, but some ex~ hibit the opposite quality. In his “Veg- etable Physiology,” Professor Lawson epeaks of the eccentric movements of the side leaflets of hedysarum gyrans, which make it appear as though the whole plaat were actuated by a feeling of caprice. Iu many cases observers are, no doubt, self~deceived, and mistake a mechanical and wholly anconscions mimicry of in- telligent action for an actual exhibition of intilligenee : still euch men as Dr. Gray and Darwin are not apt to be deluded by mimiery or figures of speech ; and how- ever much it may run counter to popular notions of what is proper to plant life, the hypothesis that intelligence does not end with animal life seems by no means in- consistent with a multitude of trustworthy observations. —_-—_—_— “GEORGE” AND “DOLLY.” T'wo nice old people, man and wife, sat in the Detroit aud Milwaakee depot yes- terday, baving come from Cannada, and waiting to go further west.

You don’t wantto make a public scandal, do you?’ ‘Watch them things,’ she said, waving ‘ber hand, and she went out upon the’ street.

She saw himas she was walk- ing past, and she softly slid in and had him by the hair before he looked up. ‘What on earth—Doll—why Dolly!" he yelled, in his sudden surprise. ‘Yea, it’s your old jade!’ she hissed trying to get hold with the other hand, too. ‘What's this—who—hold on!’ he ex- claimed. ‘For de Lawd’s eake! What's all dis yere mean ?" called the barber. =~ ‘Found that young and blooming wife yet?’ sbe sneered, holding . his head against the wall. ‘What, wife-—what ails ye—are ye crazy ?” he yelled. ‘Now, dew stop dis yere bludshed or I'll call out de police !’ added the barber, waving the lather-brush around. ‘Sneaked in here in hopes I'd go, did you ?” remarked the wife. ‘Woman, are you mad? asked the man. ‘If she baiu't done gone crazy as a fox, den I never seed a ‘possam !"" put in the barber. ‘George’ returned to the depot with her. The baggage was there, but the strange man with a novel wasn’t. She sat ‘George’ down, sat down beside him, and in reply to his explanation she press- ed her lips and said : ‘You set right where you are or there ’Il be broken bones !” ‘But, Dolly ——!’ ‘You let Dolly alone! We'll be alone bime by, and you'd better git ready to shiver !’ The stranger was a mean man. ‘Dol- ly’ will never believe there wasn’t some- thing in it. —Deiroit Free Press. —_—~—_~+>-—_—_—_—— ELISE’S VANITY. The vanity of the fair sex, it is said, is of the same age as the fair sex atself. A clever writer ia defending this trait of the feminine character, has said that it con-/ stitutes its greatest eharm; that -without it the sex would lose half its “attraction ; and in support of this theory there is the old qnaint story of the German maiden ; a history which is so tender and pretty, that it # worth rescuing from the forgot- ten legends of the Fatherland. A maiden lived on the banks of the Rhine with her father, the miller. Now the maiden, whose name was Elise, was not pretty, and she was cross and fretful for she grieved for her own lack of beau- her on account of the few graces Nature had given to her; so she did not even try to please, and yet her heart was very large and very kindly. She spent half her time in front of her looking-glase, lament- ing ber plainness, and thinking bow im- ible it was that Carl would ever learn to love her, while Gretchen, who was so fair and pretty that she was called “The Daughter of Spring,’ dwelt near her. ise was not loved, for she had never tried to gain love. - She always faneied that it would be in vain te eudeavor to please, in vain to:be kind, and thoughtful, and loving.

We suppose the colored people are not an ex- ception to the rule, ‘That many of them will regard with indifference the loss of 7 money they had in the Freedmen’s : g Bank when they learn that $300, 000 of ft was expended in canvassing, to secure the re-election of Grant in 1872. Party spirit, under the circumstances, will coustrain them to yield to the loss of their hard-earned savings, and to throw up their hats and shout for Grant, Bab- cock & Co. But who knows how much of this money, was ased to buy up black votes? To priutlying gireulars to send out amoug them, and to lice lying white ‘men and negroes to run about over the country to deceive the hard working, stay-at-home colored people? This was using the negroes’ own money to fire their zeal, and harness them to Grant's political chariot. ‘T'o-be sure the colored people would not have put their money in the savings bank if they had known it would go that way. But as the thing is ail over andthe money gone, it is quite * eany to give it up, and to do it joyfally. Bribing has always been denounced as a crime, but it was left for radieal pol- fticians to bribe the negroes with their own money, It will be ofsipterest to the true and honest men of the country to note the effect of the astounding revelations now being made at Washington. Some are anticipating great good re- Sults to flow from them. They sup- pose that the people of the country, ‘ eitraged as they have. been by rob- beries and corruption in high places, will arise in the majesty of their power and hurl-the offenders and their party _ from the places which they have so shamelessly abused. That would in- deed be a most ‘natural result if the people were suitable impressed with the magnitude of the mischief the wicked offenders have wrought, and of the individual duty ofeach man to rebuke them on all occasions with sternest indignation, But sithia so? It is greatly feared that it is not; that the people, individually, do not real- ize their responsibility—do not feel that they have any duty to perform in jd the premises ; but are looking away to some unknown source from whence a remedy may come.. Hence there are many good men who fear that the dis- , Susting and horrible revelations refer- ‘Ted to, will be fruitless of good; that ge will be a republican sti will continue to vote for his partizans as though nothing had hap- pened, and that our public affairs will continue to go dn from bad to worse until we shall reach some terrible crisis in which ruin and desolation will -overtake the whole country —followed by years of confusion, anarchy, cruel- y; bloodshed, and all the nameless dices of a people given oyer to be two weeks ago, reciting the methods ployed by ae traders in N. Y., to de- ceive the Grangers and get out of them better prices than they could obtain from merchants well acquainted with the tricks of trade. Our object was to post the Grangera iu order that ihey might, prac-! tice greater cantion in buying from men in distant cities of whom they know no more than is représéfited in ‘circulars, which, now-a-days Jiterilly flood the country... If there is any good to, the far- mer community to come out of the Grange movement, we want them to-have it. If they can save money by sending off to distant matket« fur goods, they are cer- tainly entitled to do so. No one will dis. pute that. Men who dig and delve as do the farmers for a living, should make their labor count to the utmost in provi- ding forthe wants of the family. . And yet they are liable tobe deceived iu their efforts to get the most for their earnings. Indeed, merchants themselves, with all! their knowledge of goods and experience in trade, are liable to mistakes, and some- times commit very serious ones. It is well enongh to bear these facte in mind, and not take things always as they ap- pear to be, We have beard of several instances lately wherein Grangers have been decrived by merchants abroad : One, av it reepects coffee: A grange agent sent north for coffee and paid 25 ets. per lb., besides freight and drayage, when he could bave bought the sawe or a better article from Dingham. & Co., Sallivan a Gowan and other merebants here for 25 ets. Another sept for hats and paid $1.25, of which lot there was one that did not fit, and the man broaght is to town to exchange, when he discovered that he could have bought just as good hats here at $1 cash. We have heard of frequent instances of this kind, and advert to them now, not for the purpose of discouraging grangers in their efforisto do the best they can for themselves, but merely to show them that the merebants of New York, Boston, &c., are not.-more honest than they should be, and that it may rometimes be true of grangera as other people, who reject things near them and go far to fair worse. Grangers may confidently expret the most artful atiempts to deceive them by merchants at a distance. The competi- tion between merchants in the large cities is so great, and the immorality of trade so’ common among them, that even skill. ful and long experienced dealers go into the markets with caution, closely scruti- nizing everything before purchasing. We cannot conceive that it will Grangers to do less than this.

To Tag Eprror or rHe Henacp:— As you have of tute devoted much of your space to the “tive Question,’ and as yourgremarks have been mainly de. uted to one side only, | respectful- ly beg leave to intrude a tuw remarksin the defence of the others de. itis matuly owing to a want of kuowledze unt.e partot the general public in in matters relating Ww gus that many persuus have | indulged in much 1l-lecling, suapiciva and censure, which is not linuted to « particular class, but sbared by a large portion of the coannunity, which, I believe, would not be the case were they better informed on the matter. We often tiud persons vi more than ordinary intelligence who regard tie operations of gas compauies as of doubtiui natdre, who consider th: measurement of gas as a mere farce, and who suppose the sale of gas to be a mys- tery. Even the Hews». generally remarkable for its liberality of opinion, has given expression to observations which, if true, would reflect but littie houor upon gas companies. All such charges are the result of an entire want of knowledge of the manufacture and measaremént of gas; and ! un- hesitatingly sey thatif the public would look carefully into the subject without prejudice the opinion in the matter would be materially changed itis often argued by dissatisfied consumers that merebant is mainly depeyded on to pur- chase their smaller prodpets, would it not be wise in Grangera to test the home| markes forthe gooda they want before sending abroad for them? Let them! make up their bills, adding freight, insu- rance, &c., and having ascertained the sum total of the cost if bought in New| York, then call on the bome merchant and see at what price he will ondertake to fill theorder, ‘This can be easily dene with- out the loss of time, and if it shall tarn out that the home merchant caa well for them as ; } do as ihe unknown dealer away off in some distant city, it will be to the interest of all parties to limit the transaction to the home circle. We write this from the conviction that there can be no antagouivm between the home merehant and the producer that will not in the end be injurious to Loth. The Grangers themselves distinctly disclaim the need of any sach antagonism. ‘Their grand aim is to get the best bargains pos- sible for their produce.

This is a rule of trade whieh al! merchants understand perfect- ly, and_apon which they practice every ay. MORE QUARRELING. The Raleigh Sentinel and Raleigh News have managed to extract from the Howerton ditlicalty the material for another bitter controversy and another bitter tirade of abuse against one another. It seeme that Dr. How- erton, the Seeretary of State, denies the charges of corruption which have been made against him; and, having been refused the opporneity of reply in the columns of the News, he applied to the Sentinel, which published his communication, _In this the editor of the Sentinel was partly to blame; while he had a fect right, if he thought fit, to give Howerton a chance for defense in his paper, he should ‘have insisted that that perv ot a died which reflects on Col, Walter fone of the stock- fe civ anne But nh s ‘pressure, in order to avoid loss by leakage from the the wheel or c.ock work of the meters works with- out any regard to the quantity of gas passing through the meter, Nothing can be more errone- ous than this, The wheel work of aclock is the perfection of mechanism, fun it records faithfully und continuously the vibrations of the pendalum ; these vibrations ate made tu correspond With cer- THE ELKINS JOB.

During the twenty-seven years which have passed away since that time no effort has been made to confirm these grants ander the Spanish and Mexican govern- ments, some of which date back one hun- dred and sixty-six years.

On the contrary. it isthe interest of the company to fornish gas under the lightest ible mains in the streets, which always unavoidably occurs. Dr. Chandler says (see Engineering and Mining Journal, January 1, 1876):—“Nothing is #0 mysterious to the gas consumer as the meter, and yet. esa matter of fact. the meter is quite as accurate as any other measure in use. It does sometimes err, but its errors are almost always in favor of the consumer and against the companies. It cannot measure gas that does not pass rough it, bat may permit gas to pass through without registering the quantity.” Again he says:—*“Pro. fexsor Wor.n'ey, State Inspector for Ohio, in testing 2.321 meters, found only thirteen t.at varied over one-half of one per cent.

What can be done?» Listen while we make a suggestion. Let the town have built several portable tanks, on wheels of course, to hold from 500 to a 1,000 gallons of water each, keep them full, and centrally loca- ted, and in a few moments they ‘could be run to the scene of any fire within the ccrporate limits, What say the commissioners? Wouldn’t it be a good plan ? If so let it be carried out at once. Clean up.—Our “city fathers’ have distin- guished themselves for several years by push- ing a rigid system of cleanliness throughout the town. We believe the whole commanity concur in awarding them great praise for it, for many believe it was the principal cause of the good health we have enjoyed dur- ing these years, The time is near at hand when this subjeet will claim their attention again, and it is hoped there will be no relaxing of the system, but rather that the requirements may be extended and more strenuously pressed. There ié no blessing of life equal to health, and it therefore merits and should receive a primary concern. There are many small streams and damp places in the suburbs of the town that ough t to be drained, but we suppose these will be duly inspected at the proper time. —_- For the Carolina Watchman PUBLIC ADMINISTRATOR. Battles Rey:eal of the public laws of North Carolina, chap. 45 Sec. 19, providesas follows : “Theremay be in every county @ public administrator to be appointed by the Judge of Probate for the term of eight years.” Section 22 is as follows : “The public administrator shall epply for and obtain letters on the estates of deceased persons in the following cases: (1.) “When the period of six months has elasped from the death of any decedent and no letters testamentory or letters ofa administra- tion or collection, have been applied for and issued to any person. (2.) When any stranger or person without known heirs shall die intestate in any county. (3.) When any person entitled to ~adminis- tration shall reqnest in writing, the Judge of Probate to issue the letters to the public ad- ministrator.” For several years I have wondered why Rowan had no such official—other counties have, for instance Mecklenbury. Of our own knowledge cases arise which the law cied specially provides for. It is different now in these times, very often for those entitled, to give a bond that will be taken by the Judge of Probate, and it then happens, that some one not interested in the welfare of the estate, but who wishes the use of a little ready money for two or more years, ad- ministrators and gives bond which at the time seems good, but in the end proves to be “straw” —sometimes the Estate is in debt and the widow or other heirs think it may be to their advantage to have no administrator against whom suit can be brought, and there is no one creditor enough interested to justify him to ad- minister—meanwhile, it may be, the estate is wasted or misappropriated to the injury of heirs or creditors—strangers may die among us. Not infreqnently it happens that the heirs disagree- ing, prefer u disinterested person as administra~ tor, and would prefer « man of known capacity and probity, ax would likely be appointed Do you Messrs. Editors know of any good and counterbalancing reason why we should not have such an official? I ask the consideration of this matter by our worthy Judge of Probate and our “county Fathers” the county commis- RURAL. sioners. —___—-_-s a Bia Farmtne.—We are informed by Mr. W. B. Parks, that a negro man in this county, Hopewell neigh- borhood, made last year thirteen bales of cotton and three hundred bushels of corn with one mule, and that on thirty-seven acres of land he himself made forty bales of . cotton, and on thirty acres of land he made fifteen hundred bushels of corn. We think this beats anything in the farming line we have heard of yet. Whosays there is no money in farming ?—Char. Democrat.

This prairie flower blooma in our a tg Rev. John Leland, D. D., Londor, 1757, remarks : What affordeth the most melancholy appre- hensions, is the great corruption and depravity of manners, which is so genera}ly and justly complained of.” The moat blasphemous abuse of the name of God, by shocking oaths and imprecations, and the most corrupt and wilful perjuries, drankenness and excesses of riot, but especially by the excessive drinking of dis- tilled spirituoxs liquors, the health, morals, and religion of the laborious and useful part of these kingdoms are well nigh destroyed. Fired with this: infernal. poison; they are spirited to perpetrate and execute the most bold, daring and mischievous enterprizes, and shaking off all fear and shame become andaci- ously impudent in all manrer of vice, lewd- ness, immorality and profaneness, in defiance of all laws human and divine. But it doeth not stop here, its malignant influence reaches to the children yet unborn, who come half burnt up and shrivelled into the world, and who as soon born, suck in this deadly poison with their mother’s or nurse’s milk, so if this worst of all plagues be snffered to go, it will make a general havock, especially among the soldiers, sailors, and laborious part of the nation, who are manifestly degenerated from the more manily constitutions of preceding generations.” Ile then quotes from another author, who speaking of distilled spiritods liquors, says: “How much, therefore does it behove all, who have any concern for the honor and dignity of their own kindred species, any indignation at u- ty. —a---- of pity for the vast multitudes, no les perhaps than a million, that are yearly destroyed all over the world, by the moral as well 2s natural, and therefore worst of all evils, that ever be- fellunhay py man, to use their utmost endeavors to deliver mankind from this pest? But not- withstanding this astonishing ravage and de- struction of the human species, yet the unhap- py, unrelenting nations of the world seem as unconcerned about it as if only so many thous- ands, nay millions of caterpillars or locusts were destroyed thereby. Was there ever a more important occasion to rouse the indigna- tion of mankind? Can we be calm and undis- turbed when this mighty destroyer rears up his envenomed head? The moat zealous advo- catea for drams, even the unhappy besotted dramists themselves, the prolonging of whose lives, and whose real welfare both here and hereafter, is hereby sincerely intended, cannot find fault with this well meant remonstrance, in defence of these, and all mankind, against this uniyersal destroyer, from one who has long been laboring to find means to preserve multitudes of lives.” If such language would apply at that time to tL ravages of intemperance, much more now when 40,000, 000, bushels of grain are annually destroyed ; and many other articles useful for human food turned intg poisons ; and crime and vice, vastly increased by means of ardent spirits. Depreciation of Silver.—A sudden and rather remarkable depreciation in the value of silver is noted in Germany and Holland, and mast have its effects very soon in England and othereountries. !n a well written article on the eubject in the N. Y. Sun, of the 23, ij seems Eng- land is caught a napping on this question and will eastain considerable loss and in-~ convenivnce as a consequence, unless there should be some reaction to restore the value. This depreciation is attribated to the immense quantities of silver flow- ing from the mines of this and other coun- tries, producing an excess in the market. Gold and silver, like all other products, fluctuate in value according to the de- mand. We apprebend, that this move~ ment is more of the nature of a panic than the result of well considered and mature “calculations. Nevertheless, as matters now stand, we need not "be eur- prised if the price of silver in this country shall suffer a decline, Fora loug time it has been five or six cents below gold, and if the depreciation abroad shall be- come established, it must inevitably come to pass in this country that a silver dollar will not be worth what it is now. ——————--- A Baptist Preacher Testifies.

Renewed vigor is most speedily supplied through the medium ofa tonic stimulant, and among medicinal resonrces of that class. LIlostetter’s Stomach Bitters assuredly deserves a pre-eminent place. Weakness, whether constitutional or arising from disease or over fatigue, cannot be better compensated for than by a resort to this. prime strengthening cordial. The enfaebled invalid, the convalescent, and the age and iufirm, find that it is an unfailing source of vigor and. com- fort.

The party which made up this en- campment consisted of four men— Northerners on a tour of pleasure and observation. Three were gentlemen of wealth; but the fuurth—Jerrold Gray—was a dependent nephew of one of the rich trio. His uncle. had educated him, and now, at the end of his collegiate course, had taken him on this tour, At its conclusion Jer- rold was to choose a profession, and commence = ed the battle of life. His uncle had a number of chil- dren, so that Jerrold could not reas- onably expect to inherit anything, and his independenees proupted him to de- cline further peeuniaty aid. Leaving his companions cooking the supper, in trué camp fashion, Jer- rold strolled off to view the panorama that was stretched beneath the sur- rounding hill; As he stood listlessly Jeaning against a tree, he broke out fnto a chance song, He was real! y a fine singer, ofa highly-culti- vated yvice, and sang with all the abandon of presumed solitude, He did not see the bright, black yes that were watching him, nor the nty ears that were listening, both ‘which belonged to one of the weal- fiest and prettiest teiresses in Louis- ‘jana.

Why doso many of our noble hearted youths hasten to leave the paternal roof, and the limits of their native State to ac- ry ' rolls as she does here, carrying the active to the summit of success, and harling the indolent into the vortex of degredation? Why are so many of our well to do farmers sacrificing their personal property and domestic happiness for means to leave their families to a land said to offer advantages superior to those of North Carolina? Simply because the populace is comparatively ignorant of her real value and actual advantages. Her citizens, especially those who are continually wanting to “sell out band leave,” are like a certain class of house- holders, of rather visitors, whO\never enjoy home, because’ they are seldom theres and nev- er try to make it attractive; but are always surprised at the success and home enjoyment of their neighbors. The Siren’s song says, “In the west you can secure large crops with little labor.” It never says anything about, nor does the en- oo | chanted farmer dream of the double expenses treble doctor-bill, and sextuple moral disad- vantages, which generally exist in those sec- tions where crops grow so nearly spontaneously. Our citizens should remember, that Sandy Ridge and Blackgum Texas, do not conprise the entire State. Edgecomb will produce 500 tbs of lint to the acre ; Columbus yield turpen- tine by the cargo; Rowan creek bottoms will yield 100 bushels to the acre, Cabarrus 30 bushels of wheat. The mountain section affords much of arable land, adapted to the growth of cereals, also excellent range for grazing stock. As fine fruits as the continent affords, are grown in Western Carolina. The mica;and other minerals of the same region offer great inducements to miners. Noone need leave Carolina to find pleasant and lucrative employment. No wherein the Union, are the educational advantages better than in Carolina. North Carolina, Trinity, Davidson, Rutherford and other Colleges, nved nothing but a liberal sup- port from good citizens to keep them. equal in grade to Havard or Oxford, and to make them surpass the present standing of those institu- tions in facilities and pecyniary advantages. Let our citizens then, give the worth’of emigrant and return tickets to institutions of learning, and send their sons and daughters there to be taught two years, instead slaving them dur- ing that time in some western State, to return weaker physically, mentally, pecuniarily And morally. North Carolinians, your representatives are among the moat noble at Washington now: educate your sone to take their places; if you do not, numbsculls, neg? oes or scallawags will take them. Cc. W.C.

The Brooklyn, New York, Tabernacle was crowded in every part at the forenoon services recently. Rev. T. DeWitt Talmage continued the series of discourses on “Public Iniquities,” tanking for his text “O. thou man of God, there is death in the pot”—II Kinga, iv., 40. He said he wanted to go back of all public iniquity and find its hiding place. What are the sources of its hiding place. What are the sources of its power? What are the caldrons from which these iniquities are dipped out? He believed an unhappy and disciplined home to be the source of a great deal of the iniquity of the day.

A mortgage can be depended on to stick closer than a brother. Lt has a miesion to perform which never Icts up. Day after day it is right there, nor does the slighwst tendency to slumber impair its vigor in the least. Night and day, and at holiday times, without a moment's rest tur sickuess or recreation, the biting off- spring of its existence goes ou. ‘The seusuus may change, days ruc in- to weeks, weeks iuto mouths, and months be swallowed up into the gray man of advancing yeas, bot that mortgage stands up iu sleepless vigilance, with the interest, a perreuuial stream, ceaselessly rupping on. Like a huge nightmare eating out the sleep vf some restless slumberer, the uns paid mortgage rears up its giant frout in perpetual torment to the miserable wight who is held within its miserable clutch. It holds the poor victim with the releut~ less grasp of a giant; not a woment’s eva~ sion of its hideous presence. A_ genial savage of mollifying aspect while the in- terest is paid ; avery devil of hopeless desiructiou when the payments fail, Other liabilities way be evaded or smoothed asidd; but a mortgage hangs on with the pertiuacity of a bull dog, or the grip of a blacksmith’s viee. It the interest is uot paid it is added to swell its grim parent, the principal, aud it holds up ite horrible frout with a bardsr seem~ iug than before. Jt will bave the pound of flesh which is nominated in the bond ; and more terrible than the fearful witches iu Macbeth, the threatening fiend, Fore~ closure, rearg up ite dreadful menance with the crushing weight of Lopeless despair.

Planta shop in the midst of the finest block of houses in the city, and property will depreciate fifty per cent. Men engaged in the ruinous traffic will say, “You don’t cs ciate the fact that the largest revenues paid to the government are by our business.” Glad- stone said én that subject, “Gentlemen, don’t be uneasy about the revenue, Give me $0,000,- 000 sober people, and I'll pay all the revenue and have a large surplus.” But the ruin of property is a very small part of the evil. This evil takes everything that is sacred in the fami- ly, everything that is holy in religion, that is infinite in the soul and tramples it ont. The reverend gentleman drew several graphic pic- tures of the soul-destroying influence of intem- rance in society, and concluded by exhortin is audience to shun the evils of which he ba spoken. oe Appeal from the Mount Verhon Associa- tion to the Ladies of North Carolina. By yesterday’s mail we received the follow- ing from a most estimable and well known lady in Leaksville which we take pleasure in pub- lishing, and have no doubt the press at large will give it tree circulation The appeal reads : It may not be inappropriate during the cen- tennial year to refresh our memories with some facts connected with this Mecca of our country ; and many inquiries addressed to me recently on the pteser.t status of Mt. Vernon induces the hope that the interest in the place is reviving. It is unnecessary here to review the history of the purchase of the place by Miss Cunpningbam of South Carolina, aided by contributions from the women of the land. The payment of one dollar made the donor a life member of the Mount Vernon Ladies Association. This Association was organized with a Re- gent and Treasurer, and a Vice Regent was appointed from each State by the Regent. The charter granted by the Legi-lature of Virginia was given with limited powers, and Virginia holds a reversionary right to Mount Vernon should the Association violate its pledge to “keep and preserve the home and grave of Washington’” ‘Therefore it can never become the property of the general government. It came into our hands in a dilapidated condi- tion ; it ie now an honor to the Association. In 1872 malicious persons made a series of misrepresentation to the Governor and Legis- lature of Virginia as to the management, neg- lect &c., of Mt. Vernon. The Leqnest urged the appointment of a committee, to inspect the books, the mansion and the farm. Ou the 15th of May this committee, consisting of Judge Thomas, General Meem. General Fitzbugh Lee and Senator Burgia met the ladies of the Grand Council at Mt. Vernon and the extract will at once refute the charges. Judge Thomas said it “gave him great pleasure to inform them that the committee. of whieh he was the head, had examined carefully into the work- ings of the Association, and the financial ex- hibits as shown them, and were prepared to atate that they found everything entirely cor- rect. He complimented them upon the suc- cessful pursuit of their labor of love and warm- ly indorsed their action in regard to the charges imposed as toolx and wharfage, a the only regular source of revenue opened to them He regretted that the limited time at command would not enable the Committee to prepare and read to the Council the full report that would be sent to the Governor of Virginia, but he assured them that the Board had full con- fidence in the Association.” The Grand Coun- cil meets in May at Mt. Vernon to which are submitted the reportsof the Regent, Vice-Regent and resident Superintendent. The principle source of revenue is from the steamer Arrow, which brings visitors from Washington daily, and the sale to them of flowers, fruita, lunches and potographs is considerabie. We greatly need an endownment fund, the interest of which will enable the Association to meet the neces- sary expenses of keeping Mt. Vernon in a con- dition of perfect repair and also to relieve it from the duty of charging an entrance fee. Many of the States were appealed to by the Vice-Regents for aid and responded on the 22nd of February. I have the honor to ac- knowledge a handsome “Centennial offering to Mt. Vernon” from the ladies of Asheville on that day. Will not the ladies in other parts of the State select the the 20th of May to make a similar offering to the treasury ? It is a beautiful sentiment in the heart of the American people, which prompts them to preserve the temple of our patriot, on his na- tional day, but let us adopt the honored day of the 20th of May when our forefathers took the initiatory steps towards that freedonr which Washingtoe achieved for us. .

TILE SPIRIT OF THE MEETING. We were particular struck with the candid and charitable spirit towards other denomina- tions which distingnished all the speeches we | heard ; notably those of the bi-~hopa present. | Of course there was a good deal of blowing, and nota little glorification of John Wesley and Methodism—the truth ia, it was claimed that the Methodiata had originated so many | good things, the revival syatem, the Sunday school, the Tract Society, Bible Suciety, m ern miasions, &c., &e., that we were. really afraid nothing would be left to the honor of the Baptists and other denominations, and thonght it rather fortunate for us that Methodiam was | so young.

The firat Methodi«t church formed in America From these smal] beginnings, a Jittle more than a hundred years ago, the Methodist church has assumed siupendous proportions. The summary, given in the Methodist Almanac for 1876, is as follows: EPISCOPAL METHODIST IN U. 8. Itinerant - Ministers, 1,808; Local Preachers, 1,002; Lay Members, 3,025,427. NON-EPISCOPAL METHODIST, | Itinerant Ministers, 18,645; Local JPreachers 23,282; Lay Members, 147,802. Total—ltinerant Ministers, 20,453; Local Preachers, 24,384 ; Lay Members, 3,173,229. Adding the preachers to the members we have 3,216,264 Now, if we take the aggregate of the church throughout the world there will be accurding to the same authority, 27,591 itinerant preach- era, 61,474 local preachers, and 7,189,105 mem- bers, making a grand total of 4,278,170. If new we estimate thrce adherents to each mem- ber, the usual prop rtion, the Methodist church will havea following of 12,834,510 sonls. Astothe charch property, the Methodist arein advance of all others. The census of 1870, put down their property at $67,854,121; the Bapt- ints, $41,906,193. Episcopal, $36,514,549 ; the Presbyterian, $53,265,156, and Roman Catho- lic, $60,985,566. or has their progress in the cause of educa- tion been leas extraurdinary.

No tele- gram has ever announced whether or not his first round has been completed, or, if not, when it will be ; or whether he is in his first, second, third, fifth or fifty-fifth round. All great characters who are independen- enough to shine by the light of their own gen- ius, are subject to the malicions efforts of en- vious individuals, who plot to obscure their brightness.- There isa little globe, thi-teen times. smaller than the earth (the moon) that is very frequently throwing itself before the face of the sun, to prevent his looking his fiar daughter, earth, in the face. But insignificant impudence never succeeds beyond spasmodic efforts, attended by fruitless results. There are, however, certain secret enemuse not so well accounted for. Ii the year A. D. 360 the sun becanfe suddenly eclipsed, to all the eastern provinces of the Roman Empire, for a whole day. Darkness was total, except the light of the stars. In 586 he was obscured, and continned so fourteen months. In 626, half the disk only was visible for eight months, In 984, his light was diminished for twomonthe, complete darkness came on by day for six houra. A similiar occurence was observed again in June 1241. June 1547, the solar dixk appeared blood red for three days, But in spite of all these troubles, the san is still the great, grand, undiminished light dispenser and guide of his family, on the great cireular path leading throagh the trackless regions of imnien- sity. Some suppose that the sun haa another class of enemies, that instead of trying to obscure his brightness, pelt him with great meteoric mis- sles. Hence those enormous explosions that oceasionally take place on the surface of the sun. Disturbances thatagitate many thousands of miles squarein a few minutes. From the nature of these great outbursts, it is more than probable that the aun ts as great for hoise as for light. An explosion that will sweep over forty thonsand miles in a minute, cannot be a silent affair, but must be‘ attended by shocks, compared with which, our heaviest thunder claps are but as the faintest whiaperings.

As it ia customary to describe the character of the heroes of whom we write, we may that the Sun has ever furnished us with the finest example of energy, benevolence, and im- partiality. Asa creature of perseverance, he never uses in the discharge of the duties assigned him, but acts to day with thesame undiminish- ed vigor that he did six thousand years ago, in diapensing light and heat for the comfort of the teeming millions that inhabit the planets re- volving in his domain.

Bunyan was, in his day, quite a controversial writer, and was very severe upon the Quakers, until he learned that through the intercession of that sect he obtained his release from prison. It is a somewhat note worthy fact, now well au- thenticated, that Oharles II. liberated Quakers and Puritans from confinement, through the personal intercession of the Quakers, among whom was Richard Carver, who was the mate of the fishing vessel which conveyed the king to France, alter the famous battle of Worcester, 1751.

The frauds and corruption recently brough to light in investigating the whis~ ky frands, the Emma Mine affair, and several other astounding developments, are almost enough to make honest people believe that rascality is the rale, and hon- esty the exception, among public men. There are so mauy riogs, clans, cliques, and secret orders extending their rawifi- cations all through society, and working in sceret, that a great many very uufit men find their way into places of trust and profit to the great detriment of the public good, and to the shame and mor- tification of all good men and women who earnestly desire the welfare of their country. The moral and religious elements of the country should use their influence to place men in office who are not connected with these combinations, which are 80 dangerous to the liberties of the people, and men who have the moral firmness to scorn corruption.—Messenger of Peace. The remarkable discovery of a boiling lake in the island of Dominica, has cx- cited much scientific interest, and inves- tigations of the phenomenon are fo be made by geologists.

It is prob- able that silver will fluctuate in value, remaining, however, considerably below its old coin valae until ite cheapness opens o¢ extends its uses in the arts. That may, in retare, enhance its price. The shipment of silver bullion to India and China, wkere it is still money, will also enhance its value, and in time it may so nearly return to its old coin valae as to be serviceable as a standard of value. But there are, nevertheless, sume rea- sons why silver may be profitably used to redeem the fractional exrrency, aud if limited to that will accomplish a certain good. The amount of silver now on hand in the treatury is nearly sufficient to redeem the fractional notes, ‘The val- ue of the silver is so near the value of the depreciated paper that the seigniorage of the coin and the paying of the expenses of printing the fractional currency - will make the silver resuwption of the frac- tional currency rather a profit than a lose to the government. ‘The extent to which Europe is now drugged with eilver from the canses already mentioned it is very improbable that the silver coia will be drained out of this couvtry. There is, however, one important practical consid- eration. ‘The usefulness of silver coin is in proportion to its smatlaces. Lt is more importaut to eall in the ten eent and fif- teen cent notes, thaa those of twenty-five and fifty cents. It seems therefore de- sirable to call in the tea ceut uotes first, and to fullow this up with the twenty- fives, and last of all the fifties. The moral effect of this will be of more value than mere financiers and statisticians are apt to consider. For after all, hope and confidence and credit are important fac~ tors in money questiuns. ‘I'he politico~ economical and mathematics! -cousidera- tions may be largely outweighed by the merely emotional ones of hope and fear. Fear is the most inportant element in all panics, Hope and confidence are main stays of enterprise and prosperity. ‘Tbe financiers may prove conclusively that this silver redemption of the fractional currency does not help specie redemption, but the people at large will pot accept their conclusions, and when they see sil- ver exchanging for paper at the face val- ue of the latter, it will have a good effect on businese. The old traditional values of silver coin will remain, and people in general will not think that the silver is cheap, they will think that the paper is better. ‘I'his, we repeat, is worthless, except in the moral and edacating effects in tavor of bard money and gold redemp- tion. The experiment of silver resamp- tion is certainly not a costly one. ‘The blunder, should it tara oat to be one, will involve very émall amoants and the thing is worthy of a trial. —_———___~ ao —_—___—_—_ The developments at Washington con- tinne to widen and swell until they threaten something like a dam-disaster. It becomes a question whether for econ- omy’s sake, it would not be better to punish the innocent than the guilty, the latter being few compared with the for~ mer. Indeed, thece are so many forms of land piracy now, and so many pirates practising them, that it brings to mind the possible utility of tbe plan for im- proving public morals suggested by a Georgia judge. [t was that there shuald be a wan hung in each county and town aud that he should be dicened to be hung for being the meanest man in the county or town by the citizens having the right to vote. It will be seen that mean men would at once proceed to lead such lives as woald save them from election, and that there would be a wonderful im- provement in public- morals. ‘The diff- culty in Washington would be that the number is so great that the banging of one would make a slight impression upon the vast society of+ rascals. Still, it would do some good even there. There would be no certainty ia the matter as to who would be elected, and that might induce some to be a little more circum~- spect than ordinarily. —Richmond Dis- patch. The man who has once learned what a very small part he plays in the world, and how few people watch him as he plays it; is likely to bea more genuine, earnest follow thereafter.

It bas added greedy to his already leading position ia the House. Major Yeates took the House by storm. ing under severe indisposition, and securing the floor in the latter part of the day, after the members were-worn down from many hours of continuous discusions, he began under serious difficulties. Ris- ing superior to them, however, in a few minutes he filled the vacated chairs and secured andivided attention from the mem- bers, the lobbies and the crowded gal lerivs- Impetaous in manner, clear and forci~- ble in statement, and conservative in sen- timent, he arraigned the Republican party in-one of the most masterly speeches ever heard iu the House, There was a freshness in the manner and matter which won the attention aod sympathy of all, and the speaker was continually interrupted with the most rapturons applanse. The fact that the Chairman forget to stop him at the end of his hour, and that no one raised the point of order, is a compliment seldom paid to a speech, when so many are de- sirous of being heard, and a speaker's time is watched with such a jealous eye. These two speeches have done much to add to the fine reputation already ac- quired by our North Carolina éelegation. ludeed, in both Houses no State has more reason to be proud of her represen- tatives. When our people learn to ap- preciate her public men as they deserve, we will find that their inflaence will be extended and the State will be the gainer. npn A KETROSPECT. Let's see how we all started after the war ended. We were poor and proud to begin with. The men who had been rich met up with good fellows who knew them i when they were rich dnd good fellows | who had speculated and eaten dirt and made good piles of money now thought it an honor to offer to lend it and the quon~ | dam rich accepted the loans as if sure enough it was an honor to the good fel- | lows to offer it and this made borrowing fashionable and so we started and all | things began to look like old times and everybody seemed “doing well.” Nobody nad any idea that anybody elee was bor- rowing money except themselves and the men that didn’t borrow but toiled on in ' patebed clothes and lived from hand to | mouth were considered poor shiftlesa creatures and quite beueath the level of lthe ordinary run of mandkind. Bat finally pay day dawned somewhere and borrowed capital began to explode and | the whole eountry has been going off like a crazy shotgun ever since. “It now be- | eomes us in this centenuvial year to touch ! plain bottom and realize that we are very | poor and must live accordingly and not borrow or go in debt and best of all not | be ashamed of the work we do but blush \ like a thief if we are caught trying to live without it. ‘Then the centennial year of sure prosperity will begin and while we | may not prosper faster it will be a pros» rity that is sare‘and steadfast because it is honest in the sight of God and bon- est in the sight of all men.—Taleigh News. —_ ~~. The Notorious Major Merrill Summoned before the Military Committee. Wasutxcton, March 30.—That emi- nent soldier, Major Merrill, who found it profitable to arrest persons in South Car- | olina on the charge that they were Ka- Klax, and drew pay from government tands while receiving his pay us Major of Cavalry, ie to be examined by the Mil- itaty Committee of the House. He is 80 innocent that he asked the chairman to~ day why he had been summoned. “SE it is to get my views on any intricate sub- ject, I wish you would tell ine now, 80 I enn study and euvlighten yourcommittee.” Gen. Banning blandly informed him that he would be heard at length on the situ- ation of affairs in South Carolina daring the Ku~Klux rivt«. Merrill turned his back and slank away, with the phantom of a coart martial and possible dismissal frota the service staring lim in the face.— N. Y. Sun. A Successron Drver.—A gentleman accidentally dropped his umbrella over- board at the wharf, fuot of Princess street yesterday morning, when it sank to the bottom. A colored man volanteered to recover it for a quarter of a dollar and his offer was accepted, Upon coming to the suctace it was found that he had not only succeeded iu getting the umbrella, but had also brought ap a bag, which, a being unfastened, was found to contain a journal, ledger and blotier. At last ac- counts we learned that one of the books had been left at the Firet Natioual Bank.

Inthe United States Circuit Court Judge Bond and Giles, the April term for which commenced yesterday, a long pending case under the enforcement act was decided in accordance with the opin- ion of the United States Supreme Court, delivered a week ago in Louisiana and Kentacky cases. The Court gave no opinion, but Judge Bond simply ordered an acquittal entered, and sustained the demaurer tor the reason given in the opinion of the Supreme Court, that the law did not specify that the offence was committed on the negroes because of their race, color, or previous conditions of servitade. — - Laying the Piping.—Last Thursday Mr. Atkinson, eugineer in charge, com- menced laying the piping that is to con- vey water from the top of the South Mountains to the Asylum. ‘The water will be brought four miles and will have an immense power when it reaches its destivation. The citizens of Morganton are thinking of purchasing piping and conveying the water to the town. We would then be as well prepared for-a fire as the city of Augusta, Ga., and insuring would be a work of supererogation. <> Old and New Washington. The person who visits Washington now, if of a classical turn, will at once reeur to the Ode in which Horace deplores the luxary and degeneracy of his own age, In that he draws a beautiful picture of the splendors of the architecture, the pro- fusion of the flowers, and stately porticos, to which, in a fine antithesis, he contrasts the customs of the ancient Romans under the austere Cato. The observer who compares the new Washington with the old will not fail tosee how happily the poet's beautiful verses describe the exis- ting condition of affairs in the capital of the republic. ‘The most prodigious and costly changes have taken place. The government has expended vas: sums on the public buildings, and the famous “ring,” with “Buss” Shepherd at its head, has spent millions in real estate specula- tions uader the name of necessary im- provements. In looking critically at these, one is reminded still farther of the lament of the poet, when he sang that ia the better days of Rome the revenues of individaala wer small, but those of the State were ample. This suzgests itself at once in Washington as haying onee- been true of this country, but now it has been carionsly reversed.

PROTECT THE BIRDS. Birds are the nataral enemies and de- © stroyers of bugs, caterpillars and worms, the ravages of which insects are. very destructive, Nature never. provides an evil without a cure, and has in this par- ticular ordained that the birds shall de- stroy these destroyers. The citizens should therefore guard them all they ean, by attracting the birds about them. Build neat littie bird houses and put them in the trees abont the city, “Teach the boys to protect the birds as their’ best friends instead of encouraging them in stealing their eggs and: young and de-~ stroying their nests and: finally: killing the parent birds themselves.—Charlotte Observer. i When a man detects a missing button after getting on a clean ahirt, no one in the house is aware of the fact.

Ilis amend- ment to the Legisldtive Appropriation bill, providtug that the clerical force of the House shall remain nearly the same as it was under the extravagant rule of the late Republican majority, is one that should be summarily voted down.

Many of the best stories in our story- booka are the reproduction of some very ancient bit of history or myth; and the finest df all English nursery tales, “Cin- derella,” was once the delight ‘of the children of Egypt in the palmy days of the Phuraohe. We will tell you how it happened ; a and we think that you will say that the old story is quite as clever ad the new, and much more probable ; for in the trae Cinderella history there are no tniry gods mothers, no mice and no pumpkins. A wise old eagle takes all the management of the slipper, aud we can, in fancy, see him carrying it over the silver sands and dark pyramids of Egypt, without greatly taxing our belief. Redolphe—a pretty name, to begin | with—was the fairest lady in all Egypt. She had a dainty foot, and wore jewelled | slippers ; and all the people gazed upon ber with delighy when, she walked, as though she were & goddess of wfafry. She went out ‘to bath ene day among | the white lilies of the Nile. While aha | and her maids were spoftiog tthe Water, a great shadow passed over them, and | they saw an eagle alight on the bank where their clothes had been left. Pres- ently it arose with something in ite talons and wheeling through the golden buses, beame a speck in the clear sky. When Rodolphe came up the bank, she found that one of her jowelled. li had been carried away, and whe sa her maids, “I'he eagle has taken it.” And the maids said, “Then it. will a bring you good luck. ‘Tho eagle isa bird of good omeg.”’ So Rodelphe hob- bled home with alight heart, ope of her slipperless feet caning the lotus blos- soms, Her maids, laughed at ber, bat she said, “It is good luck, for an eagle has takeu it.” Far away, up the Nile, lay Memphis, with her bright-winged temples. apd pal- aces; acity seventeen miles Bi ciceuir, the seat of the Pharaohs for pearly a thou- sand years, at this: time (the eapital of Egypt. Tere were the splendid temples of isis, Seraphis, and of the San; and the throne was now filled with a Pharaoh who had overthrown eleven other Egyp- tian kinge. His name-was Peammeticus. His son, the Pharaoh Necho, slew Josiah, King of Jadah, B.C. 610. (Sce LL Kings xxiii.) He was sitting in a cool portico of ‘his palace toward evening. ‘The ciimson — Pi yon ee low ou the het sands of e desert, inds tri with light feet along’ a Grbac creer the Nile, and fanned the king as they passed.

Poon. aii pe Frown the Health Reformer. CANCERS. A correspondent requests an article relat- ing tv the nature of cancers aud the methods of cure which are to be adopted. We give a very brief summary of the subject. Cancer is notan animal, as many suppose. It does out **eat up” the body. as we are sometimes told. It is uot, in its’ early «sta- ges, even a blood disease, but is wholly local in its eharacter and origiu, although there may be an hereditary or acquired predisposi- tiva of the system to the disease. The tissues found in the cancers are not different from those which are found in var- ious portions of the body. They are, how- ever, often out of place, and frequently be- come greatly iocreased in size. After the caucerous disease bas progressed for some time, the whole system becomes affected, aud the disease is no longer a local affection. CAN CANCERS BE CURED? Yes; they cau always be cured while the dis- ease is stitl local. After the whole system, or a considerable portion of it, bas become impreguated with the disease, an absolute cure is nv lunger possible. Henee, persons having caucer should take immediate steps fur the care of the malady before it becomes -| iueurable; and vo one can tell the exact puiut of time when a care becomes impussi- ble. Delay is bazardous in the extreme. HOW TO CURE CANCERS. The remedies fur cancer haye been as nuinezvus as the drugs iu the materia medi- ca; for scarcely a vegetable or mineral pois- vn can be mentioned which has not at some time been recommended as a ture cure for this dreadful disease. Quacks have gather- eda rich barvest of filthy lacre from the hopeless victims of this disease; and they still do a most thriving busiuess iu the same line. The numerous remedies for cancer have attained celebrity by their apparent care of diseases which were not cancer, though pro- nounced su by the proprietors of the nostrums. Cundvrango, sarsaparilla, clover blossoms, and sundry other berbs which in many cases were wholly inert, have each enjoyed its seasun of popularity a8.a remedy for cancer. At one time a certain spring in New York, England became greatly reuowned fur the healing icflaeuce said to be exerted by its waters upon eancer. Hundreds resorted to it, not one in twenty of whom had the disease. There were of course, numerous cures. Cu- rious ductors sought to unravel the secret of this wonderful spring by an aualysis of its waters. The analysis, wade by expert chemists, determiued the fact that the only peculiarity of the water waa its remarkable purity. It was soft and pure. Thestrange perversity of bcman nature is clearly maui- fested in the fact that as soon as this became known, the patronage of the spring ceased ; and its waters are no louger incladed iu the list of cancer remedies. If the chemist had discovered a little iodine, or osmiam, or sul- phureted hydrogen. vr some other poison, very likely a thousaud quacks would have seized the idea, and sovu Huoded the market wich as many patent compounds warranted to covtaiu the poison in @ concentrated and poritied forw, and the spring would have retained its notoriety. The ouly remedy whieh offers any chauce for cure, is destruction of the cancerous growth. If this is done thoroughly, while the disease is confined toa small portion of the body, a cure is almost certain. The agents which effect this in a thorough man- ner are electricity, caustics, freezing, aud re- inoval with the kuife. The last method is most in favor with the best surgeons ; caus- tics are the remedies employed almost en- tirely by quacks. Inthe bands of skilled yvperators, electricity aud freeziug have each proved successful methodse Caustics are al- so often successful ; there are two or three which are especially effective. The great aitn is, uf course, tu destrvy all the diseased tissue. There are special cases which can be best treated with each of the remedies mentioned. Iu general, the remedy which will the most effectually remove the morbid tissues is the best remedy. It should be meutioned that although can- cer is at first a lvcal disease, and although this local disease may be cured, yet there still remaia in the system the predisposing causes, whivh at first pruduced the disease. From these causes a new cancer inay be de- v , either in the same, or in a remote, rtivu of the body. Can anything be done for eancer when it has become ineurable? Yes ; wuch may be dune.

King & Co., doing business at Shanghai. Mr. King had recently returned. from the United States, where he had formed an alliance with a blooming young lady, the daughter of a Presbyterian clergyman residing near Boston, who, after the nup< tial ceremony had been performed, accom- panied her lord to the Celestial Empire. On their way they stopped for a few days at Hong Kong. After ensconcing them- selves in comfortable quarters the couple were visited by a rich mandarin. The. latter regarded the lady very attentively, and seemed to dwell with delight on her movements. When Mrs. King at length left the apartment he said'to her husband in broken English (worse that. broken Chiga,) “What you give for that wifey — wife of yours?” “Oh,” replied the hus- band, laughing at the singular error of his visitor, “$10,000.” This the mer- chant thought would appear to the Chi- naman rather a high figure, but hs swas mistaken. ‘‘Well,” said the mandarin, taking out his book with an air of busi-~ ness, “s’pose you give her to me; I give you $15,000.” It is difficult to say whether Mr. King was more amazed than amused ; but the very grave and solemu air of the Chinaman convinced bim that he was in sober earnest, and he was com- pelled, therefore, to refuse the offer with as much placidity as he could assume.— The mandarin, however, continued to press the bargain. “I give you $20,000," said he; “you take ’em ?” Mr. King, who had no previous notion or thought of the commercial value of the commodity which be had taken with him on his business tour, was compelled at length to inform his visitor that Ameri. cans were not in the habit of selling their wives after they had come in possession of them; an assertion which the Chinaman was slow to believe.—Greenicich Jour- WIFE. | nal. — + CHINESE FUNERALS. On the death of a parent it is eastomary in china, at any rate with persons above a certain rank in the social scale, to for- ward to all friends add acquaintances, however slight, a formal notification of the fact, written in mourning ink and on mourning paper of portentious dimensions. On the present occasion this document (in which, be it observed, the family name of the parties, Shen, is omitted) ran as follows : “Be it kuown that the unfilial Pao-~chen, who, on account of his manifold and grievous crimes, was worthy of sudden death, bas not died, and that, instead, the calamity has fallen upon his worthy fath er, upon whom the reigning superior of the ‘l'aching (lit. great, pure) dynagty has conferred the first order of rank in the civil service, and that in the imperial body~guard, and the governorship of the province of Kiangse.

These gentlemen, much talked off as repub- liean candidates for the presidency, it is likely will have to pass the ordeal of an investigating committee before they reach the goal of their aspiration. It seems that they also became anddenly rich within the last few years, and the tongue of bad fame assailing them, they must show their hands and explain to an out- raged and indignant people. “Let no guilty man escape,” said President Grant ; and though he evidently didn’t mean it, the lightning has been flashing all around and over him ever since, revealing secret villjanies of darkest hue. The implication of Blain and Morton will console tlre President if there is any truth in the old saw that “misery loves company.” Mr. A. T. Stewart's will has been published, He first gives all bis prop- erty to his wife; bat then proceeds to add codicils No. 1 and 2, in which be provides for numerous friends and employees who had remained by him for many years, aud for his wife's relations. The public charities which be had projected and commenced, are left in the hands of his wife and his friend Judge Hilton, to whow he had fully made known his plans, and who are expected to carry them out. He also charges his wife with the responsibiiity of recollecting and ma- king gifts to uamerous other persons who had beer in his employ and served him faithfally for ten years and more—§$1,000 to those who had served him 20 years and $500 to those who had served him 10 yeare. -He bequeaths to his friend Judge Hilton, $1,000,000, the largest eum mentioned in his will. The balk of his estate will doubtless go to build up the public charities he bas projected, which are saidto be on a very large acule, When Bubcock’s part in the safe bur- glary conspiracy was fully exposed, Grant affected great enrprise and iudig- nation. For a second time he had lost coufidence in human nature. Jn order to relieve himself from suspicion and tarn aside the public wrath, he caused an annoyneement to be made by the Associ- ated Pres3, that he would go before the jnvestigativg committee to disclaim any knowledge of the conapiracy, and to express his profound astonishment at the developments that had been made. A week has passed away and the President has not appeared tu testify, nor has he made any siatement to the com~- mitte. He has ehanged his miod, if ‘such a purpose was ever really entertain- ed, which is uow donbted. The state~ ment of bis alleged intention was made for effect. When twenty-five thousand dollars were traced toward the White House as a part of the apoils of the “Black Fridey” epeeulation, which Fisk and Gould had eent there through broth- er-in-law Corbin to secure the favor of Grant, the committee aevked for an ex- ora statement, Grant refused to open his lips, and Garfield had not the “EP to summon bim ae a witness. when Babeock was put on trial for the Whivkey Ring poooevery Grant was quick enongh to volunteer bis testi- and ¢ to go-in person to Bt, ie his confidential 735,00 iat ‘Cross Fund, : , 36,75 etn Athomesion” =} os _Lenten Ker, J Muriocn’ Lenten offering ) ~ Soieried by Mime Fanny Katey ©} aio Recetpts from other sources, 190,74 $8,321,57.

The Church also owned stock in the Building & Loan Association of the cash value of about $300, The congregation unanimously ratified the pur- chase of the Brick House on the corner of council and Church streets, which the Vestry had hereto- fore bought from Capt. W. C. Coughenour at the price of $2,500. And the Rector and Vestrymen of the Parish, and their successors In office, were duly appointed Trustees to hold property for the congre- tion. Toshow how strangely God sometimes accom- plishes his purposes, I will relate briefly the history of how the Parish has finally reached its present prosperous financial condition. At a meeting of the Vestry held last December, various plans were pro- posed and discussed, in regard to paying for the Furnace, buying a new bell, &c., but nothing definite was determined upon. The idea that we would be able to raise money enough to carry out all our plans and to meet ali our liabilities, at as early a day as Easter, seemed to be utterly wild and unreasonable. !n the course of the discussion, the Rector remarked, that he believed that by Easter the Furnace would be paid for and we would get ha// enough money to pay for the Beil but this remark only excited a smile of incredulity on the part of the Vestry. Shortly after- wards two ladies of the congregation— Misses Fanny Kelly and Jane Rutledge—without consulting the Reetor and without his knowledge, quietly went to work—under most disheartening circumstances— resolutely deterniined not only to get money enough to buy a Church Bell, but to buy one that should be a credit to the Chureh, as well as the n.—The zeal perseverance, and faith of these young ladies knew no bounds, and they themselves knew no such word as fail,and hence, inspite of some discourage- ing features, their success was far beyond their own most sanguine expectations. They thought they might possible be able to raise as much as $100—they succeeded in getting $169,40—and of this amount, they themselves contributed about one fifth—é. ¢. $32,25— in equal proportions. The next most tiberal con- tributor on their list, according to her ability, being Mrs. Julia T. Cuthrell, who gave them $10,00, The success of these young ladies in their efforts, had a most surprising effect upon a good many peo- ple, and was the means of encouraging and “provo- king them to love and good works.” In the opinion of the writer, the credit of all that has been accom- plished in a financial way in the Parish during the last few months, is in a great measure due to the exertions, energy and decision displayed by Misses Kelly and Rutledge. But for their active zeal and good example, [ believe that comparatively little would have been done. Encvuruged by their success, the Treasurer of the Vestry undertook the apparent- ly hopeless task of raising the sum of three hundred dollars, the amount believed to be required to meet the absolute wants of the Parish for the present. By means of asimple printed appeal, and in ‘that way only, the Treasurer has 90 far succeeded in ob- tajning $326, in cash, and a solvent note for $70 ; and he will probably receive $50 or $100 more. The most liberal contribution received in response to this “appeal,” were from two colored female com- municants, viz: Lucinda Murphy, who gave $3,50 and Elvira Connelly, who gave $2,25. They also con- tributed $2 and $1 respectively, towards the Church Bell. CHURCHMAN. _——-~~Do-— THE SAFE BURGLARY PLOT. The Grand J Investigati th Great Ceaspirncy meh | Gen. Babcock, Dick Harrington, and Boss Shepherd to be indicted — Strong Evi- dence Implicating the whole of the Ring Crowd. Wasntnotoy, April 14—It is understood that the Djstrict Jury will to-morrow indict Gen. O. E. Babcock, Richard Harrington, Alexander R. Shepherd, Hallet Kilbourn, Thomas Shepherd, und John ©.

It is said by those who have the means of knowing, that the prominent official whom Miles, the burglar, saw at the Metropolitan Hotel on the night the safe in the District Attorney's office was blown open, was Johu M. Clarvoe chief of the Metropolitan detectives. The burglar Miles was in Washington three or four days before the safe burglary. He remained here several days afterward, and visited Ben- ton, his pal, in the jail.

S. Senate in the case of Gen. Bel knap has began to assawe an importance which was wot atall anticipated. ‘The consequences which are foreseen as fow- ing from an ‘affirmative decision are such that partisan considerations will almost inevitably, toa more or lees extent, in« fluence the judgmeut of Senators, It is alleged, aud with great show of plausi-~ bility, that ifthe Senate decides that it has juriediction over Gen. Belknap, net- withstandiog his resignation, then it will | be competent for the House to bring be~ fore the bar of the Sevate at its will any ex-civil offiver, no mattor how many years had elapsed since the commission of his alleged offeuse. ‘This power, it is argued, would be availed of by the House for political motives. ‘The con. clusion scems inevitable that if au officer eav be tied after resignation, time has nothing to do with it. ‘There is no eon troversy over the fact that in the last fifteen years scores of civil officers, who are not now inthe pnblic service, have committed acis deserving of impeacn- went. If these are etill liable w ia- peacu ment, and the House of Represeut- atives either now or hereafter sete itsell to work to discover them, the Senate would be kept pretty baisy on impeach- ment business.— Baltimore Sun. eee WHO IS INDICTED, AND FOR WHAT. Orville E. Babeock is indicted for con- spiracy to falsely accuse a reputable eiti- zen of Washington of a most odious crime. ‘The name of that citizen is Co- lumwbus Alexander, and he was to be falsely accused of breaking upon a eafe and stcaling therefrom certain valuable pepere. It may be remarked that origi- nally the word conspiracy waa used al- most exclusively to signify an agreement of two or more persons falsely to indict one, or to procure him to be iudicted, of felony. Aud who is Orville E. Babeock who thus stands indicted 2? For seven yeare past he bas exercised, ue secretary to the President, a very large part of the office of President of the United States. He has stood between the people and the President. He has undoubtedly influ- enced hundreds and even thousands of appointments. He opened the letters of the President, and showed to him ouly such as he saw fit. When Gen. Babeock was accused of a crime agrinst the revenue of the country, the President shielded him by his influ. ence, and the Attorney-General came to his rescue by the issue of a most extraor- dinary order. Will he be . protected now Fortunately Congress is now in session. The House of Representatives is invested with the power of impeachment, and any further attempt to protect, by « flicial in- fluence, this man whe has betrayed so many trusts, will be likely to put those who shield him in danger. Next to the indictment of the Presi- dent, is thie indictwent of the man who, more than any other, stood iu his place and acted for him.

Y. Observer The Jewish creditors of the Sultan of Tarkey who are trying to induce him to cede them a portion of the Holy Land in exchange for the bonds apon which he cannot pay the interest, are but repeat- ing a proposition which they have made in other times, without success. The Sultan is now harder up thaneven he ever was lefore. He cannot borrow money anywhere, on account of his bad faith. But, even ander these cirenm- stances, there are wealthy Jewish finan- ciers and money lenders who are ready to afford him relief in retarn for a portion of the ancient heritage of their ancestors. This doea not imply that the Jews as a people are thinking of their retarn to Jerusalem, or that we are to behold the re-establishment of the Jewish kingdom in Palestine. It is merely an attempt to get some real estate for those bonds upon which the Saltan cannot pay the interest. N. Y. Suu. eel NOTICE.

Stewart, the head and principal partner of the great mereantile house bearing his name, the most suceess- ful merchant in the history of our coun- try, died on Monday last at the age of 73. He had been ill about a week, hav- ing taken cold which resulted in inflam mation of the bowels. Until the day of his death, it was not generally known ‘that be was seriously ill. Mr. Stewart was born of Scotch-Irish parents, near Belfast, Ireland. Before he was eight years old his parents died, and he was left with his grandfather who educated him at Trinity Coliege, Dublin, in the hope that he would enter the Episcopal ministry. After his gradaation he emigrated to this country, where be foand employment in a public school in thie city. He had a partrimony of about $5,000, which he invested in goods, aod he commenced basiness in a small store on Broadway, direetly epposite the whole- gale establishment, on the corner of Cham- bers street. In 1848 he had accumulated so much capital that he was enabled to build a large warble store at Broadway and Chambers street, on the site of the the Washington Hotel. The new store was the marvel of the day, and hia baei- nese from that time increased until it became immense.. He afterwards built the up-town retail store en the square bounded by Ninth and Tenth streets, Broadway and Fourth avenue. The cost of the land and counelere weean res from 2,750,000.

The sales in the two establishments are suid to have amounted to $203,000,000 in three and the income of Mr. Stewart has been the in the mer- cantile world.

It is confrasedly the most difficult of all tasks to convict a man of murder, however clear the evideuce against him. A morbid sympathy per~ vades the comeaunity and leads jurors to take the side of the prisoner. And ,it is the constant outery of the press aud peo- ple, that it is almost impossible to bring 4 murderer tu justice. Butno sooner is one convicted and sentenced than the work begius to get him off. Women and meu join hands and, regardless of the welfare of human society and of the demands of the divine law, they combine té get the murderer out of the hands of the hang- man. Now, it is right that a man havea fair trial; that the first trial be reviewed by a higher court, and thia review be reviewed by the highest court, but that should be the end of it. If we have law, and courts to administer and interpret it, it is the daty of good citizens to submit to it and! support it, and assist in i's enforcement. What is the use of complaining that law is not executed, when good citizens and 1 ministers of the gospel and women con- | spire to get murderers off, aficr all the! courts, iveluding the Court of Appeals, | fully equal to the Sapreme Court of the | Uniced States in character, have pro- nounced his sentence just! A dreadful responsibility rests upon men who thus testify to the dangerous classes that no efforts will be spared to shield them from punishment, if, to their other crimes, they will be careful to add the crime of mur- der. Wehave acasein hand this mo- ment. Dolan was committing a barglary. ‘The owner of the store interfered, and Dolan mardered him. If Dolan had commitied burglary ovly his conviction | would not have called out any kindly | efforts to shield him from the just penalty But as he was good enough just to mur-) der Mr. Noe while he was about i, we} have “property~halders”’ begging the | Governor to thwart the ends of justice, | and interpose one more obetacle in the way of the law, and offer one more pre- mium for the commission of wmarder.

It is not merely shame that showld beawakened, bat such a public indignation as shall demand, beyond the possibility of denial, the turn- ing over of a new leaf in the condact of officials and the management of the pab-~ lie interest. It is proved beyond all doubt that there has beet an immense amount of peculation; and it is high time that a scourge of large cords, of scorpions if necessary, were used to drive from the places of trast ell who have used those places to promote their own aggrandizc- ment by betraying their trust. The people are sound, bat we must have a higher standard of patriotism and honor and honest for pablic men than that which seeme to prevail at Washington and else- where. —N. ¥, ‘Leap Year™”’ said he as he threw himself indolently upon the loange, “Ob, don't I wists I was a pretty, fascinating stanner of a girl !

Unfitted for the active pursuifs of lifeyand incapable of partaking of its pleae- | ures, to which health alunc can giye a zest; disinclined to social intercourses, aud a prey to melancholy, the valetudinvarian is indeed an object of pity. Yet there is nothing in all this that canuet be remedied by that genial alternative tonic and nervine, Llostetter's Stomach Bitters, which supplies deticient staunina, braces the nervous system, and over- comes those bodily irregalarties to which nervous weakness is most frequently attribu- table. Diseases of the kidney aud bladdez, imperfect indigestion and uterine troubles are fertile svurces of debility... Their eradication however, becomes a matter of certainty when Hostetter's Stomach Bitters are xystematic- ally used fur that purpose. The Bitters like- wiseannihiiate tia pfevent fever and ague and other debiliating febrile compiaiuts of a mala- ria} nature. SS ———e THE PEOPLE WANT PROOF. There is no medicine preacribed by physi+ cians, or sold by Druggista, that carries ‘such evidence of its success and auperior virtue as Buscnee’s Geuman Syeup for severe Coughs, Colds settled on the Breast, Consumption, or any disease of the Throat and Lungs. A proof of that fact is that any person afflicted, can get a Sample Bottle for 10 cents and try ita super- ior effect before buying the regular size at 75 cents, Ithas been lately introduced in this country from.

It gives as it thinks a fair estimate of how the different States will-vote in the Presidential election next November and thinks there is no consid- erable change.from the programme as set forth. The chief problem to be solved, it declares, both at St. Louis aad Cincin- natti, is; what candidate has the greatest strength in New York? New York we have no doubt willbe the great battle- ground of the campaign, but as it has for the last two successive elections, gone lagely Democratic, we think the Herald erred ia placing it in the doubtful list as it did in placing Florida among the Re- publican States. ‘ pemocrafic STATES Alabama, 10 Colette: 3 ’ California, 6 Connecticat, 6 Delaware, 3 Georgia, il Todiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, oe’ as of the power the world bas over you.

I learn on very authority—vera- cious authority in fact—that Grant’s sickness was much more serious than was at first re- ported, It was nothing less than a slight stroke of apoplexy, the first he has ever known, but attended by the dire premonition of a more serious second and a fatal third visitation. I don’t know why the correspondents failed to get hold of it, as it gave his immediate friends considerable concern. The republican portion of the senate went into cancus over the i- bilities of recurring attacks and debated the question as to Ferry’s eligibility quite earnest- iy. Grant, taken altogether is in a sad way. Ile has been. a gross eater and a heavy drinker fur the last ten years and the tendency of phy- sical has been inonedirection only. He does not look like the man whose pictures and statuettes confront you at every turn here. His eye is sluggish and watery, his face bloated, his neck ny and the reins all swollen with blood. is SPIRIT IS BROKEN along with his constitution. The Jast few months and their developments have told on him fearfully.—He doesn’t sleep well of nights. After Belknap’s confession of his guilt, it is said he never closed his eyes for nearly a week, and is petulant, unsociable and moody during the day. Very few calls are made upon him, comparative speaking ; hegives no more: din- ners, and seldom is seen on the street, I pass- ed him on the avenue one day last week, and would hardly have known him. He has chang- ed almost beyond recognition, WANTS To GO. Gen. Blair nsed to predict that Grant would never go out of the White House for good un- less he went ont feet first ; but Blair didn’t take into consideration the possibility of his party’s wreck and the implication of the president in a score of degrading petit larceny frauds. In- stead of desiring a third term, there is nothing that Grant desire now, at times at least, so much as the close of his present incumbency. He ia tired out and disgusted. That worthless brother of his, Orvil, has driven the iron to his soul, first by his greed, and next by his insuffera- ble asininty; aud now Babcock’s daily exposures are fearfnlly increasing the depth of his tribu- lation. There ia no doubt, tov, that he is in mortal dread of disclosure which will pir himself to the rack, beyond the possibility of an escape. The Barnard letter, begging for a euttlership to sell, and backed up by one to his sister-in-law, Mra. Grant, whom he addressed as “Dear Julia ;” the Ingalls presentation of a $5,000 watch, the mysterious connection of the presi- dent or some of his immediate family with the real estate ring, are all preying on him. Still, I do not doubt he could bear the ill’s he has if it were not for the others that the world knows not of just at present, but which some one of next winter. NOD - — - THE SITUATION AT THE NATIONAL CAPITAL. Special telegram to the Richmond Enquirer. Wasuineorton, April,17. The debate in the House to-day upon Hal- lett Kilbourn’s case was one of the ablest of the session, Ilooker, of Mississippi, made an excellent apeech against ordering the surrender of Kilbourn to the court. The chief interest, however, gathered about the speech of Mr. Tucker, of Virginia; who made a strong argu- ment for his amendment, directing the sergeant at arms, by counsel, to ask for the quashing of the Writ a8 improvidently granted. General Garfield came over and took’a seat near Mr, Tucker and began a conversational debate in which he was soon worsted. Blaine, who had his plans fixed for a bloody-shirt display, next left his seat, and took a conspicuous place in front of the House and near to Mr. Tucker, with whom he soon managed to provoke a col- loquial debate. His points were badly taken and be was easily embarrassed, Mr. Tocker telling him good hamoredly that he already demonstrated that he was no lawyer. Blaine stirred over this for a whiie, and after thinking it over began a personal attack on Tucker, rak- ing up the war record of the latter as attorney- general of Virginia. His manner was of the most pompous and inflammatory and dramatic order. Tacker had already been thrice appland- ed, and now Mr. Blaine secured partial ap- lause; but when Tucker came to reply, the bully of the republicans received such a dressing as has rately been administered to any We see alto that the Hom: 3.

A St. Louis paper comes to, the reseue and declares that sreumapece lie less and make fewer mistakes than individuals, How many men, asks the St. Louis paper, “can show a re- cord for correctness, accurancy and trathfulness, that will at once compare with average news- papers? The editor gathers his news. from a thousand sources, from his intances and from strangers, from letters and papers. He sits and culls, hunts the details, and endeavors to get ‘the straight of every he publishes, for it goes to the world over hig own signature, and he knows that in a t measure he will be held responsible. e private individual hears a piece of gossip, listens carelessly, tells it to another with equal carelessness. and if called upon for details, in nine cases out of ten cannot give enough of them to make an intelli- gent item for a paper. ‘Writing makes an ex- act man, says Bacon; the newspapers verifies the truth of thestatement. Let any one who doubts this, sit down and put on paper some pieces of gossip, with the purpose of hav- ing it printed over hisown name, and he will see in a minute how little he knows about a matter he thought himself familiar with. And he will wonder, not that the newepapers should contain occasional inaccuracies and misstate- ments, but that they contain so few. And his wonder will wonderfully increase when he re- members that the editor has to depend for much of what he publishes on the common run of mankind. ‘ oo THE HEADSTONE SHAME, [From Chattanooga Times.] There have been received. at this: point, via Savannah and Mobile, in the past few days, eighty-six cars loaded with headstones for soldiers’ graves at the National Cemetery. The The cars contained each about one hundred and fifty-one stones, or something over thir- teen thousand in all. These have about all been delivered to the contractor, who hasa large force engaged in putting themup. The freight on the Jot from Mobile was $3,126,03; from Savannah, $2,000 ; $5,126,03 for the whole. We took a look at a lot of the stones yester- day that were’racked up in the yard of the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia road. They are blockes two feet six inches long, and six inches square. Many of them have the corn- ers knocked off. All of them are rough-and unpolished, just.as they came from the saw, with the great slashing scars on the faces, many we saw were nearly three cornered so much of one angle had been broken away. This mater- ial is all of it inferior, much of it is mean, with dinty yellow streaks ranning through it, The rock is soft not appearing to have pear ‘the tenacity and firmness of Berea sandstone. The figures are cut on the tops of the stone in -rouglf style, and are scant eight of an inch the fifteen committees will bring to light before | dee Uipun the whole these are coarse, unsightly looking bits of stone, none too well dressed for a house wally and certainly not the sort of monument a gentleman would select to mark the resting place of a favorite horse or hound. If a man who served honorably in the Union army wants his blood stired by other than pa- triotic emotions we cannot prescribe a more certain mode than a visit to the piles of these rock. We have seen ‘some stealing by quarter-mas- ters and commissiaries ; we have gone cold.an hungry that such harpies might fatten. We have seen men, or our neighbors and kin under our command, perish from disease and neglect of their wants by those who paid well to sup- ply those wants. But none of these scenes dur- ing actual hostilities stir one’s indignation like the evidence of the cold-blooded knavery, the cowardly theives and scoundrelism written all over these insulting “tribute” 2(?) to the dead, who died that the Enion might live. —_————~=>r_—_—_—- POULTRY BREEDING. Preparations for setting hens is now 1n order. It is better to have a separate room in which to place the sitters, although it is not by any means essential to success. Let the nests. be thcroughly cleaned, and in the bottom of each pnt about two inches of earth ; cover this an inch deep with clean straw or hay, and on this sprinkle ten or twenty drops of oil of tansy.” When the green tansy (herb) can be procured, line the nests witl that, . lis said to be a certain preventive of mites and hen lice. Place the nests in some quiet, and, if possible, somewhat secret part of the build- ing ; set the hen at evening, handling her gen- tly, and avoid scaring her if possible.

Con- gress seems determined to have the business of that inetitution thoroughly examined into and settled up. ———_-eo— We invite attention to the notice call- ing the Democratic Convention for the 7th Congre:sional District, to be held at Taylorsville on the Sih June. The Democrats of the District will doubtless wish to respond to the call promptly, and to do so well, should take up first the subject of primary meetings in the town- ships and counties. It must strike every reading man in the District that the contest now approach- ing, in this Siate and the country at large, is no ordinary one. It involves mach more than ordinary political eontests in this country. We have arrived at peril- ous times in the life of onr Government, and this feeling hangs heavily upou the hearta of the people, who cannot, if they would, ‘tid: themselves of a profoand sense of personal responsibility for the fature weal or woe of this country. For, aay what we may in vindieation of our selves against blame in the premises, it is yet nevertheless true that the voting people of the country are largely to blame for the disgraceful conduct of their public officials. It will not doto vore for men simply because they are “clever,” “smart,” “funny,” and merely “capable.” The people surely cannot afford any longer tg over look ‘the grand necessity of toate sclid, honest and worthy men to fill the offices. And the change should begin in the primary meetings in nomina- ting delegates to the county Conventions. Let the best and wisest men be selected on all occasions to represent us in what- soever capacity involving the character and the interests of the pecple. Enforce the same rule in the representative bodies from the lowest to the highest—in the county meetings, District Conventions, State Conventions and the National Con- vention. It must run through all, other- wise the purpose aud aim of the people may be defeated at Jast. Township meetings should be called as carly as practicable. The people should meet and talk over the affairs of the State, the County and the General Government. Itis the duty of every voter to apply himseif earnest ¢o under- stand his own duty and to do all in his power to promote the cause of honesty, justice and truth in the land. We are all on trial if voters will vindicate them. selves as wise and virtuous men our Government may run through another eentury; but if they fail in this the day of grace, the end, so far as haman under- standing can determine, is not far dis- tant. * PARTY MACHINERY.

Washington, April 20.—Exs-Attorney General Williams was examined by the House Committee Expenditures ia the Department of Jastier, and testified to the payment to John J. Davenport, for- merly United States Commisrioner in New York, out of the secret service fund, $30,000 tor election purposes. Upon being pressed, Jadge Wilhams acknowl- edged that the money was paid by the direct order of the President. Notwithstanding the many recent atart- ling developments of fraxd and corrup- tion bronght to light in Washington, the above acknowledgment by Ex. Attorney General Williams is shockinz, yea, ap- palling. What! has it come to this at al of the U. S.

In March, the same year, Senator Wilson intro- dived a joint resolation to aid the States of Delaware and Maryland to emancipate their slaves, It was strongly opposed by. Senator Saulabury of Delaware and never went any further. July 16, the same year, Mr. White, from a select committee of nine, reported @ bill offering $300 a head for the legal emancipation, of the slaves of Delaware, Maryland, Virginia- Kentucky, Tennetsee and Missouri, or either of them. This bill also failed to be acted on sion the subject was again discussed, and a bil passed the Senate providing for compensated graduated emancipation in Missouri alone. This was also loat in the House, and so far as we know the question was never again raised in Congress, though there have been from time | wirly pistols buckled to them. to time rumors of an intention on the part of somebody to bring in a measure to compensate the South for the loss of its slave property.— vlitical Sneak.—Sanvy Tate of thia town fell in company with a Massachussetts emiasary Monday night, registiring here as J.

The nomination of the pure, eminent, bat frigid stateeman, Charles Francis Adams, could not turn back the tide now so heav- ily set against Grantism and corruption, We rejoice that the day of deliverance is nigh, That Grant may go out of office with some show of respectability, we venture a bit of gratuitous advice, which he will, we trast, embrace with all his heart, and with thanks to us. We observe that he is to open the Centennial on the 10th May, next, in the delivery of an address to the assembled multitude. That occasion will afford him the amplest opportunity to atone, in part, for the corraptions of himself and couneillors.

How often we are called on to chronicle the sad fate of some victim of intemperance, who having finished his course comes to die in some dirty street or lane, no one knowing and ap- parently, no one caring what becomes of him. Last Sunday the sun rose beautifully, shed- ding his brilliant rays on all nature, inspiring all sentient beings with the sweet calm of a quiet sabbath -‘but ere the church-going bells had strack, summoning to the house of God, the public were called to view the ghasily re- mains of Wm. M. Etheridge, found ia an old dingy shanty, in one of our back alleys. It waa a pablic disturbance fut not a public sur- prise, for all who knew the man were prepared to hear of a sudden and horrid fate overtaking him.’ For some years he has been a picture sickening to look on, a living illustration of the work of intemperance.

This body met in Mocksville on last Friday, the 2lst inst. Nearly all the ministers and most of the Ruling Elders were present. Rev. J. Rumple was elected Moderator, and Rev. B. L. Beall, afd Mr. E.

Messrs, Pen- ick, Anderson, Glasgow and Thurston were received from other Presbyteries, thus raising the number of Ministers to 23. 2. Two Cundidates, viz: Messrs. Ramaay and McLellan were licensed to preach as_pro- bationers, 3. Reports showed that the average salaries | of laboring Ministers were raised last year from | about $700, to $800, thus showing a deeper in terest in Ministerial support. 4. Considerable additions were reported to the wembership of the charch. There are now over 3500 church members inthe Pres- bytery. d. A new church was organized at Moores- ville. 6. Steps were taken with the view of raising 31000 the coming year fur the cause of sus- | tentation. 7 Rev. L. McKinnon and Prof. J. R.

ELporapo, N. C., 17th April, 1876. | Eptrors Watcuman: Strs :—I herewith transmit abstracts of communt- | cations of Silas McDowell of Franklin, Macon county, | N. C., on “The belt of no frost, or Thermal belt. ’ “Among the valleys of the Southern Alleghanies | sometimes winter is succeeded by warm weather, which, continuing through the months of March and April, brings out vegetation rapidly and clothes the forest in an early verdure. This pleasant spring weather is terminated by a few day’s rain, and the clearing up ts followed by coid, raking winds from the northwest, leaving the atmostphere of a pure indigo tint; through which wink bright stars, but, if the wind subsides at night, the succeeding morn- ing shows a heavy hoar frost; vegetation is utterly killed, including all manners of fruits germs, and the landscape clothed itn verdure the day before now looks dark and dreary. 7 It is precisely under this condition of things that the beautiful phenomenon of the vernal zone, or thermal belt, exhibits itself upon our mountain sides, commencing about 300 feet vertical height above the valleys and transversing them in a perfectly hori- zontal line throughout their entire length like a vast green ribon on a black ground. Its breadth ts 400 feet vertical height and from that wider, according to the degree of the angle of the mountain with the plane of the horizon. Vegetation of all kinds within the limits of this zone is untouched by frost; and such is its productive influence that the most tender of our native grapes has not failed to produce abun- dant crops in 26 consecutive years. The Thermal belt mostly exist in all countries that are traversed by high mountains and deep valleys, as the natural causes that produce it are infallibie as those which produce the rainbow in the clouds.” The philosophy of the subject ts described as follows : Frost is but crystalized dew, and can only form during clear, still nights, when the atmostphere ts in repose, The atmostphere, when at rest, falls Into a Series of Strata, One lying above the other, the heav- lest stratum becoming the base of that above it, and all take positions according to their weight and densi- ty upon the principle of gravitation. Heat is the agent that produces this result. The heat is of two kinds, both from the same source; the primary one being the sun’s rays direct, and the other the heat reserved Or retained by the earth. This heat is ever radiating and in cold, clear, stil nights it mounts upwards through the cold, damp air, taking from it its caloric, while the latter rushes down in cold frost, produ- can be weu attested, that all at- tempts to cultivate the grape in our low, valleys have utterly failed, the plants being attacked tai ee eb LA a . a Md era p 2 : - The Pee Dee Herald nominates Calvin W.

It says “he has been a respectable Governor and a clean handed representative in Congréss. He defeated Gov. Allen last year, and mod. estly wears the laurels of victory. His war record, like himeelf, is fair and ered- table, without being in any way brilliant. On all the living issues, be is conserva- tive, and not open to any exception as an extremist.” ‘Ibe opiuion of the Sun accords very nearly with what we have | expressed. Without being at all inter. ested on the subject, we think Ri publi. can opiniou is more strongly fixed upon Hayes than any other. Tt may finally centre upon Bristow, but sentiment will be slow to crystalize upon one so new to Presidential aspiration, and qne who bas given sucha deadly blow to Republican practiccs, Reseutment has not yet quite yielded to policy, and if Bristow iu nowi- vated, it will be because he will carry the new party colors of honesty aud reform, the only colors that will win ip the com- ing cawpaigu.— ial.

My advice is: Go propose to the nrost sensible woman you know. If she says yes, tell her bow much yoar income is, from what source derived, and ‘tell her, you will divide the last ebilling with ber, and love her with all your heart.in the bargain. Andthen keep your promise. My word. for it, she will live within your income, and to your last hour you will vegret that you didu’t marry sooner. Geotlemen, don’t worry about female extravagance and feminine antrath. Just yeu be true to her, love her sincerely, and more foud, faithful, foolish slave you will never meet anywhere.

Luther spared the alter, and hesitated to deny totally the real pres- ence; Calvin, with superior dialects, ac~ cepted as a commemoration and a seal the rite which the Catholics revered ag a sacrifice. Luther fivored magnificence in pablic worship, as an aid to devotion; Calvin, the guide of republics, avoided in their charches all appeals to the senses, as a peril’to pire religion. Lather cou- demned the Koman Charch. for its im. morality; Calvia for its idolatry, _ Lather exposed the folly of superstition, ridiculed the hair shirt end the scourge, the pur- chased indelgence, and dearly-bonght, worthless masses for the dead; Calvin shrank from their criminality with im- patient horror. Luther permitted tie cross and the taper, pictures and images, as things of indifference ; Calvin deman-~ ded a spiritaal worship ia ite utmost | purity. Luther left the organization of the Church to princes and governments ; Calvin reformed doctrine, ritaal, and practice; and, by establishing ruling elders in each church and an elective synod, he secured to his policy a repre- sentative character, which combined au- thority with-popalar rights. Both Luther and Calvin insisted that, for each one, there is and can be no other priest than himeelf ; aud, as @ consequence, both agreed in the parity of the clergy. Both were of one wind, that, shog!d pious laymen chdose one of their number to, be their ministers, the man so chosen would be as truly a priest as ifall the Bishops Miu the world lad consecrated hia." ee THE WHOLE STORY, The World Washiogton especial says ftrange stories are circulating abont the President.

In the journal of Stephen Grellet, a noted and most worthy minister of the Society of Friends, I find the following record, made in the Fall of 1809: | I may not omit recording here ‘the death of Thomas Paine, A few days previons to my leaving home on my last religious visit, on hearing he was ill and in a very destitute condition, I went to see him; and found him ina wretched state ; for he had been so neglected and foreaken by his pretended friends that the common attentions to a sick man had been withheld from him. The skin of his body was in some places worn off, which greatly increased bis safferings. A nurse was provided for him, and some needful comforts were supplied. He. was mostly in a state of stupor, but some- thing that bad passed between us had made such an impression upon him that some time after my departtre he sent! for me, and on being told I was gone from home, he sent for another Friend. This induced a valuable young Friend, (Mary Roscoe) who had resided in my family and continued at Greenwich dar- ing a part of my absence, frequently to go and take him some little refreshment suitable for an invalid. Once when ske was there, three of his deiatical associates came to the door, and in a load, unfeel- ing manner, said ; “Tom Paine, it is said you are taraing Christian, but we hope you will die as you have lived ;” and then wentaway, On whieh, turning to Mary Roscoe, he said; “You see what. mixer- able comforters they are.” Qnce he asked |! n one of | Carolina and who during the war was in prison at This in| We are re~| was still in er before f was another incident in the had sprung up ia the Baish ny. ‘hed now comes a nt of the legend.

England,» however, re~ quires as a condition that Winslow should only be tried for the charge on which he is claimed as a fugitive criminal, and an~ less she receives aeneeetens that he will ; be tried only on that, and u no other iediciwniants found for the eee will hold him and discharge him at ths end of the’ period allowed for his de- tention. : !

They reqnired all the money deposited with the branches to be drawn to Washington, which would have been the safest thing for the depositors if the managers here had only been honest, The finance committee was controlled by Cooke, Huntington and Clephane. These men could not have the swing they wanted as long ax the character of the bank required all loana to be made ou United States seenrities, It was part of the acheme of the Washington ring to use the earnings of the poor freedmen to carry out their magnificent pres for enriching them- selves by speculations in real estate and the enable them to loan money on real estate. The pretext for thie was that politicians in | the Southern States wanted to get hold of the earnins of the freedmen, and were helding ont to the... greater inducements than the Freed- man’s Bank could, aa long as it was restricted | to loans in United States securities. They argued, of course, that the freedmen would be at the mercy of unscrupulous speculators, un- less the institution established especially for | their benefit was enabled to take care of them.

The committee on the subject reported that thirty-five per cent. of all the fires of last year origina~ ted from incendiarism, and that fifty five per cent. of the whole amount of property destroyed by fire was throegh incengia- rism, or, in other words, that the losses by this crime for the year in the United Siates and Oanada ran ap to fifty million of dollars. The report did not suggest any very promising way of dealing with this tremendous evil, but merely propesed the offer of emall rewards for the arrest and conviction of incendiaries.

Joba ¥. Beal, of the Coufeder- ate Nuvy, long a bosom friend of Booth’s, lay in prison under sentence of death pirsey on the Northern Jakes. Booth, accompanied by Senator Hale of New Hampshire, Col. Forney and Washington McLean, interceded with President Lin- colu for Beal s pardon, going tosbe W hite House, after midnight, calling Mr. Lin- coln trom his sleep, and most piteously pleading with him. The interview lasted till 4 o’elock in the morning, Booth throwing all his dia~ matic power into the work, and bringing tears from the eyes of all. At last Mr. Lincoln yielded and promised that Beal should be pardoned. Next day he told Mr. Seward what he had done, avd he was very angry, declaring that the sen- timent of the North required Beal's blood, and if the man was notexecated he would leave the Cabinent and charge Lincoln with being in sympathy with the South. Accordingly Lincoln thanged bis mind, and Beal was“executed. ‘This was too much for Booth. He wegt into a frenzy of rage, aud swore vengeance on Lincoln.

It was brought into the South of france about the beginning of the present centu- ry, and noble specimens of it are now growing in the promenades, and public gardens of Niece, Oannes, Hyeres, and Algiers. Js medicinal qualities, how~ ever, did not become known yaiil abont thirty years ago. The Spaniards firet discovered that it was a preventive of fever, and the colowists of ‘Tasmiama ased its leaves fora variety of purposes. Je-was not until 1869 its fall power be- came known, and, ag a hygienic measare, it was introduced into the Spanish realm were suffering from malarial fever; Ens calypius trees were planted about the city, and a marked improvement in the bealthfglness of the locality followed.

It next travel- ed io the Cape of Guod Hope, Corsica, Sicily, South America, and California, Garibaldi’s attempt to introduce it into Rome is not entirely new; some years ago a few-dozeo specimens were planted about the walls, and although nemly all of the trees lived, bat very few of them are vigoroas. Afcer a trial of many years in Southern France, it has failed to be- come hardy, or suck up and destroy the poisovous vapors of the swamps in which it was planted. “I'he Trappist monks of the Tre Fontane have recently set out large plantations of Eucalyptus trece, and are tending them with the utmost care. Is may be fairly looked upon as a decis sive experiment. ‘he place known as Tre Fontane, or the Three ‘Fountains, lies some miles south ot Rome, and isthe seat of a magnificent monastery. Its climate, once healthy, in consequence of the destruction of all the timber in the vicinity, has become so deadly that, not- withstanding its eplendid buildings, rich in mosaics, marbles and freseoes, the place is wholly deserted during the sum- mer months. ‘Io live there in June, July, August, it is said to be almost cer~ tain death.

Taxation for State and county ex- penses combined caunot exceed 663 cents on the $100 valuation. 2. The current expenses must be kept withio the limits of the levy as above. In the case of any county, therefore, the ex- prnses at present caunotexceed 28% ceuts per annum. 3 ‘Thatany new debt created since the adoption of the present State Coiisti- tation by any, county must be paid out of the amount levied for county ex- penser. 4.

Stymovk did on that occasion, It | raging to see a statesman who en- joys the confidence of all shades of opin.” ion in his party and the respect of his political opponents, at the threshold of a Presidential campaign in which the chances are in favor of his as#0ciates, throw aside the low, selfish appeals to party spirit, so common in such performances, and tell the Democrata thas they do. not. deserve success in the pending contest merely because the Republicans are extravagant and dishonést ; that they will only be worthy of triamph when they can prove to the people that they themselves are econ~ omical and faithful ; and so far as he is concerned that he does net desire a Demo- cratic victory this fall, unlese the party ean stand this test. The nation is not hopelessly given over tu profligates and plunderers when such a man as Horatio Szyruur thinks it wise to open a Presi- dential canvass by sounding a key-note like tbis. Gov. Szymour’s speech was marked by a noble moral tone and a bread and genuine patriotism. He rebuked both friends and opponents for their tolerence of fraud and corruption in the conduct of affairs, and asserted that these views were not confined to the Federal Administra» tion, but existed io all oar State and municipal Governments. He pointed to the general greed for money and the haste to get rich as the main cause for the de- moralization of society. He had the can- dor to say that though, in his opinion, the Republicans hold certain lax cunati- tutional doctrines, which lead up to the doors of the Treasury, nevertheless be believed that if the Democrats had been in power so long they would have been about ae corrupt as the Republicans have been. Lle was severe on shoddy, tinsel, wild speculations, and extravagant living, and denounced the venality and profligacy of men in office as the natural outgrowth of reckless expenditures, inordiuate love of money, and lack of sterling integrity amoug the masses of the people. He pointed to an early return to the simple habits and gennine virtues of the fathers of the republic, both in society and gov- ernment, as the best remedy for the evils that surround us. There is nothing very original in these views. ‘They have been uttered by scat- tered moralists, by a portion of the pub- lic press, and a limited number of inde- pendent politicians ever since the close of the war, and especially during the adminis- tion of Grant. But that which challen- ges particular attention in this instance is the fact that at an important convention of his party, on the eve of a fierce steag- gle for supremacy in the government of the sagacious political leader deems it not only proper, but the highest reach of ex- pendiency to send ringing along the lines of his followers a speech in which he bases the claim for a victory by the Demo- crata mainly ou the contingency of their ability to satisfy the voters that they will administer the Government more honestly | than the Republic a:.—N. Y. Sun. ~~ >> THE JEWS AND THE HOLY LAND. The New York Express says that the report that the Sultan offers to compro- mise with his Jewish creditors by turning over to them the Holy Land in payment of his bonds, has started anew the stories about the schemes of the Jews for the re- turn of their people from all quarters of the globe to Palestine. Christian. tradi- tion assigns to them an irrepressible long~ ing to do thi-, and now the ey is offered to them to do it. All that ja necessary is for the Rothschilds to pay what would be a mere bagatelle to them, as the papers which are running the story for the dozenth time put it, and The dream of Judea may bé fulfilled, all of which is very fine and very romantic, but nobody has discovered among the Jewa.of London, Frankfort, Paris, Vienna and New York, in which cities they arg¢ among the money kings, an irrepressible longing to betake themselves to the desert Syrian wastes, and to surrender the place they fill in the great capital, in any Quixotic attempt to build up a picayane governmental estab- lishment there. There are few people io the world who have better reasons to be satisfied with thepower they wield throagh theig wealth in every land.

Strange, is a youth of dneurpased character, as was shown by such witnesses as Bishop Atkinson, and others who knew bim from his infancy. These facts taken in eon~ nection with the melancholy circams tances that led to the death of young Murray, made the case ove of exciting interest to the community. ‘T'wo days was ocenpied in the argu~ ment of counsel, whieh, for profound legal learning, close analysis, avd eloquent logic, has rarely been surpassed in any of our counsel are given in another place, Daring the trial the large College Chapel, both floor and gallery, was filled with eager spectors, iuclading a large number of ladies. The prisoner was ac- companied in court daily by his father and his step-mother, and perhaps other female relatives. His Honor Judge Watts, delivered a written charge to the jury, which exhibi- ted much learning and depth of thought, and was delivered to the jary in an effec- tive and impressive style. He told the jury that it was a case of marder or noth- ing, that the question of manslaaghter did not arise in the case; and having stated the position of the law arising upon the facta, the Jury had bat little to do bat to reader « verdict of not guilty. We have not expressed an opinion of this case, taking the view pat by the court, the jury did right; but we think the facts might well have warranted a verdict of manslaughter. We think the excellent and enviable character of the defendant repels the idea that be was a murderer, buat that he was only guilty of manslaugher, whieh the proof would well warrant. And. while we say this we have no doubt the prose- cutor and bis friends will be satisfied with the result, as he had no vindictive motive in pushing the prosecution. Bat for the bunor and dignity of the Court, we regret the demonstrations of applause which came from the crowd on the rendeting of the verdict. While this was doubtless the result of an honest sympathy with young Strange, atill it looked too much like sending up shouts of joy over Young Murray's grave. 1: showed disrespect to the father and mother of the deceased, and was inconsistent with the solemn proceedings of a court in a scene of such intense solemnity. ‘hat it was the result of an anthoaghtfal ia- diseretion of the yast crowd we have no doubt, bat nevertheless unsuited to a court of justice. The Judge's charge to the jury will be given to our readers next week, as we could not obtain a copy for this issue. We should add that the young prisoner and his near frierds acted with the most becoming propriety throughout the trial. — Asheville Expositor. INDECISION. I believe that is the trouble with thoa- sands of people that have been attending these meetings. I believe that if every man and woman that has been here had been trae to their own convictions, there would have been thousands more saved. Many a man and woman bas gone out of this hall convinced that they were sinners, and that they ought to receive Christ, but yet they have rejected bim, just as Pilate did. Pilate wa. a vaceillating character, wayward and undecided. One solema truth comes to me to-day, and that is, | that all these men that would not - decide for Christ and decided against tiim; how punishment came upon them! Lost, lost, lost, for time and for eternity for want of decision ! I believe in my soal that there are more at this day being lost in New York for want of decision than for any other thing. O, my friends, what is your decision to-day ? What are you going to do with Christ? That isthe question to-day. I do not care much about the sermon; if [ could only get this textdown into you: hearts, get it down deep into your soul, I should feel I had accomplished my work here. It is not preaching you want now; it is to come to a decision, to decide what you will do with God’s own Son? He gave him up freely for as all. —Will you not receive him? It is to have him for our Saviour now, or at some fatare day to have him for our Judge. Pilate, like every other sinner, wanted to get rid of the ‘responsibility. He did not like to be pressed to a decisios. He shified the responsibility to Herod. But even Herdd refused to take his life, and sent him back; so Pilate tries agaio.’ He thinks he has gota plan that will work. He pats it out of his own power—foolish man! He ought to have decided it him- self, and not left the multitude to decide. He said “I will put the question to them now, and get them to decide.” Poor deluded man! He thought ‘they woald choose Jesus instead of Barabbas. He did not know “the depravity of man’ heart, and how they were in leacue with hell against Christ. He took the marder- erand bighwayman and asked them whieh one he should release, and the multitude lifted up their voices and seid, “Release anto us .” After they of settling in Ventral Africa, avd the} 6° tyes ty Me * * ae * oe 5 thal : Pk “ record is made satisfactory. it that these papers cioat Gok.

Sup- pose Col. Poot had done all these things 1 Aside from much that is rumor, let us come to facts. In 1874 he got a bill passed to allow him to bay all the sta~ tionery for the State on the ground thet he wanted to save money for the State, In 1874 he did bay, and the bills in the office show that the prices charged were about 20 per cent. higher than the same articles could have been bought for in Raleigh. Emboldened by success, he agaio bays in Nov. 187d. He buys from the same firm (Brown & Warner), and notwithstanding the heavy decige in prices, he bays from them at about 40 per cent. higher than in 1874. The bill was only stopped by the honesty and firmness of John Reilly, the Auditor. Suppose Col. Pool had done all this ? in Noy. 1875, Howerten bought car. peting for the State at $2,25 per yard when merchants here, in Raleigh, say that the same carpeting could have been honestly bought at 81,15 per yard. Nay, wore, when the bill was examined, it turned out that the house from which it purported to have been bought was a fictitious house and had never had an ex- istence. Llowerton filled a power of at- torney from the fictitious house to draw the money. Suppose Col. Pool had been caught at this ? ‘There are yet other delinquences of Ifowerton which we will not at present give to the public. These things do net make Col, Pool innocent.

From iuformation iu relation to this matter, I have reagon to believe that Stephea D. Pool is a detaulter, and that he has taken a portion of the Peabody sehoul fund for his own private use and benefit, in violation of the public trust which he held. I desire correct information upon this subject, as Col. Pool bas occupied an important position, by virtue of which I presame be was selected as the cuetodian of the Peadedy seheol fand for this State.

Brogden; Dear Siz :—Superiatendent Pool has sent me a liat of the schools which be has paid from the Peabody Educational Fand, and I have no reason to doubt its correct» ness. ‘There are several other schools which Lave not yet been paid, but which he says he will pay. There are certain- ly “ieregularities."’ 1 hope, however, he will falfill his promise to me and pay up soon. His account of moneys received from me and miue are. correct. 1 suppose he has veuchers for all he bas paid. I sent him my account, whieh, no dowht, he will show. ; I have no doubt he has used for his owu private convenience the mooey I paid him for all the. schools not on his. list, which should have been paid to those schools. ‘The way to get at the exact truth would be to compare my list of checks given him, amounting to $15,150, with ‘his vouchers- My list is in his Just before} he bad actu- | capital of the Catholie which it will upt be moved unless that | using is 5} ae wee ith great ha a brilliant liglt on account of their vols canic nature, the rocks being often smooth and polished, and their jagged surfaces giving theth powor to cateh and throw light in every direction. The southwes- tern portion is especially voleanic in its appearance. On elose examination, how- ever, we find long ranges of mountains exhibiting no signs of volcanic action, but in many respects similar to the Sier« ras, much steeper on one side than the other, and apparently formed by similar forces, though asa rule the volcanic ele- ment prevails. Many ef these mountains are of immanse size ; thus Clavius is 120 miles in diameter, and has an area of 12,000 square miles, and turrets on its walls shvoting to an altitude of 16,000 feet.— We next notice the frequent oceur- rence of ringed mountains, not more than ten or fifteen miles in diameter, and al- most perfectly circalar in form. They are found alone upon the level country, or in groups-and even upon the ridges of the pits, which differ chiefly from others in their smaller dimeusions.—There is also another promicent feature which has puzzled astronomers, even in the present day. For many of the ringed mountains, notably from T'ycho, Copernicus and Kelper, are radiations, extending in some eases hundreds of miles, which at the fall vf the moon glisten with a remarkable brightness. ‘They shine as brilliaetly under the oblique as under the vertical rays of the sun—a fact yet unexplained ; they pass over the tops and through the the craters of voleanoes, and throngh the valleys in an uninterrupted course. Of the many theories concerning t « baps the most reasonable is that they are veins of matter ejected from below daring some great volcanic or_carthquake dis- turbauces, and in aere respects they resemble our own trap dykes and veins. Since the time of Galileo, astronomers have painfully, patiently and persever~ ingly mapped every detail of the moon's surtace, until we have lunar topographic~ al charts more aceurately constructed than any hitherto coustracted of the earth’s surface. Photography has receut- ly aided largely iu this work. By carefal experiments it has been proven that the light ofthe full moon is only 16,000,000 part of that of the sua, and ‘that she gives only one-sixth. as much light as would a pure white disk ; therefore she is nearer black than white. An equal sized globe of fire-brick or clay thrown into the orbit of the moon would furnish us with light as bright as our own luminary. As early as 1700, efforts were made to ascer:ain if any heat came from the moon, her rays being concentrated by means of a lens upon the bulb of .a thermometer, with no effeet, however; and other and later trials with improved apparatus gave the same result,or in some cases indica- ted that the moon was shedding negative heat or cold. It was only after the io» vention of the thermopile that evidences et lunar heat were discovered. The amount was excessively small, however. Lord Rosse, with the aid of his three-foot reflecting telescope and Thomason’s gal- vonometer, shows that little, if any, of this beat comes from the interior ot the moon, or, in other words, that the body of the luminary would be cold but for the heat absorbed from the sun. This bor~ rowed heat has becn shown to raise the exterior temperature of our eatellite to at least fifty degrees Fah. As the sun’s heat and light cease to fall apon her sur~ face and are lost for fifteen duys ata time, and the remaining heat being ra- diated into space, the alterations of tem~ perature must be something startling, and the changes in the physical features of the body produced by the enormous ex- pansions and contraccions of her outer substance must be great and very de- strative.- - The Cardinal Vicar at Rome has is- sued the Edict and Apostolical Pardon for Lent in 1876.

No picture of distrese, deepair-or desolation is there, where desolation must have assumed its most fearful aspect." In those dark ‘vaults you may sé¢e now’ ‘the Good Shepherd gently bearing the young lamb in his arms, showing hia protection to the weak aud innocent; now. .fosr compartments in which are drawn scb- jects from the Old and New ‘Testanients, surrounded by garlands of flowers: and trait ;,now it id: Nosh apd his ark »-ziow.

More” frequently it is Daniel in the lions’ den, a syabolof martydom. by . wild. beasts ; or denab ejecied by the whale, a symbol of marty- dum by water; or the three ehildred in furnace, a symbol of martydom by fire, These scenes of triuatphaut martydom were evidently painted to give: courage aud cuuselation.. But. no traces of cons temporary persecutions, no _represen~ tations of Christian slaughters do we find; nor scenes of bloodshed to awake’ hatred and revenge, while images ‘of pardon, love, and hope are predomiuant. . This» is Christian painting in .the Catecombs. This is Christian symbolism, THE WATER LOCOMOTIVE. Mr. Huet’s theory of the water loto- motive has excited: considerable interest. He thinks it a mistake for. ships tory have to force their balk through the water; meeting thereby the large opposing sur- face of water, and a sliding friction over the whole of their immersed - surface ; this he holds to be, in fact, as much’of an error as it would. be to dismount: rail~ way cars from their wheels, and drag them, like sledges along the rails. . He boldly argues that vessels should be mounted on rolling drums, that’ these drums should give principally the power of flotation, avd. that they .should’ be driven round as paddles to move the ship forward. In this way there would bea floating locomotive modnted on ‘its sup~ porting wheels or rollers ; the’ veseel would offer no resistance. but.a. rolling one to motion; the whole of the support ed weight of the, ship wonld be used as usefal pressure to give adhesive frictional effect to the rollers, and a “high velocity attained. bsseuluN, +o APPLICATION |OF LIME, Svils rich in organic matter, even. though they already contain it in considerable quan- tities, drained peat swamps, stiff clays, -and coarse heavy soils, and especially those des- titute of it, are all benefited by an prion tion ef lime.

Henricka, for the mur- der of Robert Seaford, which was moved from Davie to this county, came off last Friday and Saturday. This was a very interesting trial and was ably contested on both sides. Solicitor Dobson, and J. A. Williamson of Davie appearing for the State, and Mesars Clement and Price of Mocksville, J. W. Stephenson of Statesville, and J. M. McCorkle of this city, appearing for the defendant, The whole of Friday and half of Saturday was tak- en up in examining the witnesses ; in the other half the lawyers made good use of the short time allotted to each. The jury retired about 9 o’clock and return- ed about balf past ten with the verdict: “He is guilty of nothing.” A great deal of interest was manifested by out-siders, On both days the court room was well filled. The prisoner seemed to have the sympathy of very one, and when the verdict was rendered a slight murmur of ap- proval ran through the crowd and then came a shout which made the welkin ring. It was wrong that any such demonstration should be made in the court room, and it greatly dis- pleased his Honor, who did all he could to stop it. Wecan safely say that this was not done with any disrespect to his Honor, but was the natural outbursting of joy at what was esteem- ed to be a righteous yerdict. SALISBURY GAS, LIGHT COMPANY.

Under What Circumstances the Final Dissolution may be a Pleasure. Dr. Frederic R. Marvin gave to the Liberal Club last evening a physiciun’s view of death, his enbject being “The Physivlogy ot Death."” The history of death embraces three periods, the fabulous, the superstitous, sad a philosophical. The fabulous period was in mythological times, in which death was personified as the goddess Mors, the glance of whose eye was fatal ; the superstitious era was that long period in which death was regarded as an instantaneous change ; a stroke that came and cut off life from the whole body atonce. Ours is the philosupbical age. The lecturer had experimented on dogs, to discover the order of time in which the sensesdie. ‘l'o one dog he gave arsineous acid. ‘he second died instantly upon his introducing « weedfe into the medulia oblongata ; and the third he bled to death. In the laet, the order of death was, sight, taste, smell, hearing, toach ; which eetab. lished the fact that the scnses disappear in the same order as they do in sleep. The baman body ie an aggregation of celle. Life is the segmentation of these celle; death their disiutegration. Each cell dies for itself. Every moment cells are springing into life, Every moment cells wre dying. Our bodies are compos- ed of theese little points. Take them away and there ia nothing left of us but the connecting shreds. ‘here are dead cells iu your body, and when you are dead, there will for some time continue to be living ones. We eball ali st the same time be resolved into.earbouic acid, water, aud the mineral elements. The whole su:faceof our globe, said the speaker, has been dug over 128 times to bury its dead, even not reckoning the long age of the world which is given it by acience, land we inhale, we feed upon elements and the very atoms, that bave been living boman beings be~ fore. The dead, he continued, live and we greet them in the me o city, io the flakes of the suow, in the thousand es of the forest, Death, the Dostor saye, is meet There is no moment in our lives iu which E ou in as. ) es tee dhl Ge Peck, a mae 3 e _ ee deat ee eee 4 lew a range of, Aisorders as Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, and this not because it has special Proprieties adapt:d to the cure of each—sach a| pretense would be m on account of its wonderfally improving effect, upon the general tone of the system, and. its’ alterat:ve action upon the organe of nutrition, Secretion- and discharge.

McClellay also was also transferring bis troops from the James to Fredricksburg, on the Rappahannock. ‘To prevent a juncture of these two armies, General Jackson determined to strike the former add tora Pope towards the mountaius, or drive him back apon Washington city. Accordingly a forced march was made through the county of Orange avd part of Culpeper, the divisions moving by differ- ent roads. Pope advanced to meet us, and the two armies came together at a lit- tle stream called Cedar Run, six miles southwest from Culpeper Courthouse. Our line was quickly formed on the south- side of the stream, Ewell’s division form- ing the right, and was posted on the slope of a little mountain called Slaughter’s ; Winder’s forming the left, and streched across the old stage road leading from Charlottesville to Alexandria. Hill's division, which was still in column be- hind, making the reserve, his march hav- ing heen retarded by the wagon trains of the others. Immediately in rear of our line there was a large body of woods, but in frout the open ground sloped gently to the run, and from thence rose gradually t® a ridge some six hundred yards distant fom our line. Upon this ridge were posted most of the troops of the enemy—a heavy column having been detached to mareh by a circuitous rout auder cover of the tem- ber and attach us on our }eft. The sup- erior nambers of the enemy enabled bim to de this without violating any military maxim. It came very near causing our defeat, tuo, as the agquel will show. Our left Hank was guarded by the second brigade of Winder’s division, posted in the woods to the left of the road, and formed at a right angle to the main liue of battle, From the top of thx mountain above- mentioned Gen. Jackson sat apou his horse, calmy watching the movements of the enemy, ‘The brigade of Early opened the battle by driving in the enewy’s cavalry; bat he withdrew to the position assigned him when the Federal infantry and artillery came up and began to deploy into the line, A murderous fire on both side was now commenced by the artillery; Ewell'’s guns doing sp!ehdid execution from their ele- vated position—the enemy's fire heing chiefly directed to our batteries in and near the road, across which Winder’s di- vision stretched. The fight had now eommenced in earn- est, and Jacksou, leaving his observatory on the mountain, rode to the front. ‘I'he shells were tearing.up the ground and ricocheting down the road in a most un- healthy manner as we advanced, and jast as we reached the battery posted in the road, General Winder, who was directing the fire of one of the guns, fell wortally wounded, almost under the feet of Jack-/ son's horse. Asking who that was, and being told, Jackson lifted his head for a few moments ia silent prayer and rode on. As most of Hill's brigades were still in the rear, Jackson became uneasy for his left and the writer was sent to have the skirmishers thrown further out. The pre- caution was too late, however,-for the skirmishers came running in jaat as | reached the second bridge, and a heavy columu of infantry were to be seen de- ploying for attach, and over-leaping the little brigade on both sides. Returning to Jackson with the infor- mation, I found him in the field to the right of the road, midway between two batteries. ‘Ihe news seemed to have no other effect upon him than to cause the muscles in his face to become hardened, and his thin lips to be move tightly com- pressed.

They swept down slope to the ereek, through the fields of growing grain, and theu ap towards our line. It was a magnificent sight, and I al- most held my breath with anxiety, and |i now oar infantry, who had been lying down, rose out of the corn and in a deadly volley. ‘Tne enemy's front line quivered for a moment and then broke, rdoning through the other lines, throwing everything into .

I bave noticed that all of bis biograpbers, tollowiug the first, Dr. Dabuey, state that on this occasion Jackson used the follow- ing language, viz: ‘Rally, brave men and press forward; your general will lead you, follow me.” This is a mistake. Stonewall Jackson was too modest a man to use such language. Words very simi- lar to these were used, but, not by Jack- son. The Yaukees were rapidly advanc~ ing through the woods with reformed ranks, and for the succeeding half hour the fighting was the most desperate and at closer quarters than was ever before wit- nessed by the writer. There wae little or no undergrowth, and nearly every tree was large enough to shelter one or more men, and the battle was after the regular Indiao style—Gen. Jackson betaking him- self to the friendly side of a large onk of sufficient size to lle himself and horse, the writer and the color-bearer of the Fourth Virginia regiment sharing with him the protection of the tree. As the fight progreesed the men clug- tered around Jackson, causing the fire in our immediate front to be very heavy, and forcing the enemy to give way to the right and left until a considerable gap was made iv their line. Jackson, who had beeu eagerly watching from first one and thew the other of the tree, seiz opportunity to charge. ‘l'aking the Wag from the sergeant and placing the end ot the staff apou his foot, whieh projected beyond the stirrop, and without eayiug one word to the men, he advanced in a cunter. the troeps followed in a run. We had not gone tweaty yards before the Yan- kees turned their backs, and made better time going throagh those woods than our fellows had dove half an hour before. The pursuit was coutinued till dark, bat there was no fighting worth epeaking of after this final charge. I have always thoeght that Jackson showed wore of the hero in that fight than any other of his numerous battles. ‘I'ke heavy rains that fell that night and the next day prevented further pursuit, even itit had been deemed admissible, I have only told ia this description, Mr. Editor, what I eaw myself, and howl not attempt. ed to describe the whole battle.

How it bounds along its pebbly bed, sometimes in shade ; sometimes sporting round all things, as if its essence were merriment and brightness; sometimes flowing solemnly on, as if it were derived from Lethe itself Now it runs like a liquid diamond along the meadow ; now plunges in fume and fury over the rock ; now it is clear, limpid, as youth and in- nocence can make it ; now it is heavy and turbid, with the varying streams of thought and memory that are flowing in- to it, each bringing its store of dullness and polution as it tends toward the end. Its voice, too, various as it goes; now it sings lightly ae it dances on ; now it roars amidst the obstacles that oppose its way, aud wow it has no tone bat the dull, low murmur of exhausted energy. Ruch is the stream of life!

Stewart's Everyday Life. Mr. Stewart usually breakfasted at 8 v’clock, his meal ordinarily consisted of plain bread, a bit of fish, an egg, and some oat meal porridge. Then he was driven down to his retail establishment, where he spent two or three hours, walk- ing through every part of it, asking. the salesmen the prices of goods in order to ascertain whether they were up in their dues, and observing how affairs were eartied on. Then ‘he went down in bis carriage to the wholesale store. ‘There he read bis letters, and transacted busi- ness antil 6 o'clock. For aiany years he was accustomed to dine at Delmonico’s, on the opposite side of Broadway, but latterly be dived at home. Getting an interview with him was mach like get- ting aceves to the Prime Minister of Eng- laud. He was to be seen only at the down-town store, and on the visitor's entering, the floor walker near the door would first inquire that visitor’s business. If he said that he wanted to see Mr. Stewart, he waz asked what he wanted of him, and if/ it was anything that a subordinate could attend to, he was turn- ed over to him, If he still insisted upon seeing the great man himself, he was al- lowed to go as far as the foot of the stairs, where another Cerberus was wail- ing, and unless he could be satisfied that it was worth while -distarbing Mr. Stew- art the visitor was tured back.

If not, the visitor was allow~ ed to go up the stairs and wait again within sight of the glazed inclosure where Mr. Stewart sat, and jn due time was summoned into his presence. ‘Though courteous in manner, Mr. Stewart wasted no words, and anything like a bore was summarily dismissed.

Webb, The following resolutiohs were adopted; “4th, That while we have the utmost reapect for the Courts of the country, and greatly desire to see the diguity and in- tegrity of ali Courts maintained at all times, yet we do feel called apon to say that Samuel W, Watts, Judge, now holding the Coarts in this District, has nat given satisfaciign to the people of Western North Carolica in the above named case, but ow the contrary was one sided and partial, and coos the condemnation of all good citizens, and we do hereby ex- press our condemnation and disapproval of the same, Sth, That in our opinidn the trial was a great foree and complete mockery of pub- lie justice. That in charging the jary that the declarations of the defendant, discon- neeted with the act of filling, constirute A a of the res gestaes and muat be con- sidered as positive evidence of the fnno- cence of the defendant upon his proving a good churacter, is in our opinion a false legal proposition, and that the precedent eAtablished thereby is ‘alarming to the country, as it enables even marderers to escape from the clutches of the faw, by the means of manufactured testimony fn thelr own favor; afd that in so LiMding, the Judge lias provoked the jast censure of an indignant and outraged people. 6th, That if such isto be accepted as the law of the land, we think it time that the people demand legislation upon that subject which will define and protect the rights of the poor people of our country agaiost the assaults of the rich and pow- erful. Tih, That in charging the jury that the uestion of manslaughter coujd rot be considered by the jury the Judge com- mitted such a gross error as to deserve the just indignation of the whale commun~ ity. We do not understand the animus of these proecdings, but suepect there is more hankering after political effect tham 4 ablest man io this canvas, We are} holy horror at what the actors are pleased ald State would be aroused, as it has to annownce as bad Judicial work on the part of Fudge Watts.

A GREAT SENSATION at present holding the. very important office of County Commissioner, was body master of a division of Mollie Magnires in Palo Alto: + This sensation was heighten- | ed when President F. B. Gower, of the | ) Philadelphia and Reading Railroad Com. | pany, who.is a volanteer counsel for the Commonwealth, said he would prove that Collins had secreted wvurderer*, and, had within a few daye wadé a visit for which | he would Bé'called to account before the} Court. Tle bad also placed one of his emissarics iv jail as watebman, with keys to the cells of prisoners. Mr. Goweu | exonerated the Aucieut Order of Hiber- | uians outside of the coal fields from any knowledge of a participation in crime, | but boldly charged that in Schuylkill county af least the Order had degenerated into a society worse than the thugs of In- dia, whose objeét was deliberate murder, arson, robbery aud the prevention of the detection of crime.; Awong iis members pthe commission of murder was the tile to| distinction and pecuniary reward. Here. after, to be'a member of that society in this coanty will be regarded as ex-officio — an evidence of criminal guilt. tweetive testified that if any member of the Order gave auy inforaiation which might lead to the prevention or detection of | crime he would be immediately expelled. THE METHOD OF MURDER. roads body master and asks consent for the murder. If the consent is given the body application to the body master of some netghboring division, giving a pereoual guarantee that the favor wil be recipro- cated at any time, In accordance with the plan MeGeehan and Boyle came over from Carbon ecvnnty to murder Yost, with the distinct understanding that the ‘Tam- aqaa division were to furnivl men to kill John P. Jonee, ot Uarbon county. The agreement was cartiedout to the letter. Yost had effended Duffy, one of the pris- oners, aud Jones had incurred the enmity of McGeehan by refusing him work in the mine of whieh he had charge. ,The murder of Jones wae the thirty pieces of silver paid for the murde# of ‘Yost. For the clean job MeGechan made in Yost’s marder the society set him up io the liqnor business in Summit Hill. It is not possible to describe the excitement in the court room when this damning ¢xposure was going on, The various members of the society present were yery white in the face. ‘The detective coolly exposed their secret sigus avd passwords. Good citi- zens were rejoiced, as they believe the events of this trial will certainly work the destruction of the Mollie Maguire power. _——P- - Jupaz Boxtrox.—Judge Ralph P. the guest of J, H.

Last week the Graud Lodge of Odd Fel- lows met in Raleigh, and had a most pleas- antand harmovious meeting. The streets of the city of oxks were thrunged with fel- low odd, and as the shank of, the’ day ad- vanced they gathered like martins arouod the dooz of the National, chatting, mogbing, and speoding merrily the soft, wnellow hours of the fading twilight, when the glimmer of the day's last beam had flown. On Thursday night. the Grand Ledge with ravited guests aud a baad of music. re- paired to the National Hotel where a myst suinptuous feast bad bee » prepared for thew. There were three tables ruuning the epsire length of the hall, with seats for the acouin- | medation of two hundred and fifty persons. The room was deevrated with flags, badd- uera, wreathes, sweeping festovns and flow- ers, all artistically arranged and preseatiug quite a fuseiuating appearance. The feast was gotten ap iv elegaut style. wholly ip keeping with Cul. Browu's far spreal repo- tation as a | utelist.

Brown haulted his company in front of our door, and after carrying his men through many evolations which were sdmirably per- formed, he brought them to an “order arms.” The officers were ordered several paces in front, aud while wonder ing what it all meant, the Captain eom- menced a speech addressed to asia about the following. strain : aes “Mr, Editor of the Watchman: Iu behalf of myself and the brave men _ bere with me under arms, I desire to express our thanks for the kindly notice you bave- taken of us from time to time in the past, through the columns of your paper.

Oue day came astep, like that of his master and he seddenly left his place. .'The man had .jost entered wore ribbed stockings; the old dog had lost his scent and referred at once to the stockings that he remembered rubbing his face against. Helieving hie master had returned after those weary years of absence, he gave way tothe most extrava- gant delight. The man spoke. ‘The momentary illusion was dispelled ; the dog went radly back to his place, tay down wearily and died.” ere Speaking of tbe reservoir which recen- tly brake, an exchange says; “Except for one weak spof, ite strength was am- ple to meet all possible demands upan it.” So it is withman. ‘The “one weak spot” makes life a failure. As the strength of a chain is only the strength of its weakest link, so the streugth of a man’s life is on- ly that of the weakest spot in bis charac- ter. Wisé id he who secks to know where is his weak spot, und wiser atill is be who, knowing it seeks diligently to fortify it.

There is no question about it. ‘There onee belonged to thie very land a race that for chivalry and dering, for true valor ai@ courage, has not an equal on the face of the globe. ‘I allude to the To- dian, Where isshe to-day? ‘There was an irrepressible conflict ‘between him” and the white man, and the réeattis thar the place which koew him but afew years ago knows him no more.

Our reason for nominating Bristow is, that it would fairly compel several in- flaential journals, which are now hoping and expecting to support the St, Louis nominee, to reconsider. The Sux, for instauce.—Springfield Republican, Very good. Let oar Springfield con~ temporary go ahead and nominate Mr. Bristow, if you can; aud let the Demo- crate, on the other hand, nominate Sam- nel J. ‘Tilden, aud then honest mep ueed not feel much auxiety, beeause, which~ soever is elected, we may coaut on having a very good President. _ Of cowase we should reconsider at once ‘wfter Bristow’s nomination. That js the right thing to doat every important erisis. For the present, however, the cffurt to get each party to nominate a -first-rate candidate will suffice....When that ig ac- complished, everybody can stop and re- consider, and determine what to do uext. For our own part, however, we fear that no reconsideration will enable’ ug to give nepgert to the Republican party, no matter how good ite candidates. Jt is wo far lust in corruption to ‘be saved even by a Vigoro.s man of good inten- tions, like Mr. Bristow. No party ought io be kept in power forever; aud: it would have been a great thing for the couniry if the Repablicans had been tarned aut four years ago.

As “bread is the staff of life,” I have thought that, perhaps, iu the raising of corn and the peanut—(the great elements for procuring bacon)—my little experi~ lence might benefit some of my fellow- planters. In the outset, hawever, | promise that all successful agriculturalists must be governed by glimate and soil, as different lutitudes aud different soils re- quire a correspodding difference of man- agement of even the same crops. M land, without fertilizing, will uot produce more than from six to eight basbels per acre. By the application of such material as I could procere at home, I: have brought it up to fifteen bushels “fo the acre. I use no commercial fertilizers. This is the outline of my mode of plant- ing and cultare. I lay off my rows three and a half feet distant, and check four feet. I then plant every three-feet row, 80 as to give he corn a distance of four by seven feet. Having taken some pains for the last three years for the improve- ment of my corn by @ careful selection of seed, I now geuerally get two e1rs to the stalk. I plant the peanuts between each hill of corn in the row, and between the rows of corn, seven feet in width, 1 plant a full row of the peanuts. As the peacat is not detrimental to the growth of the corn, nor but slightly inthe way in its cultare, the pea crop ia a clear gain of twenty-five or thirty bashels to the acre. These fatten my hogs, with the assistance of very little corn, ‘I'be peas do not attain such sige as to be materially in the way until corn is ready to lay by. I hoe each crop twice—once at an early stage of the corn's growth, and again when [ “T the corn by. As corn and bacon are what we of the South mostly need, I think the method I pursue is the surest one to procure both. At least I know of none better. Occasionally I have planted speckled peas in the corn_rows, as I think that to have a variety of food, causes the hog to take on fat more rap- idly J. W. Witaoy.

Stewart contain a paragraph or two &o defective, in a moral sense, that he is constrained to direct your attention to them. “He paid every one his dae, and exacted the same of every other man.” “He was not in the habit of signing off.” Now such a practice is not sanctioned by high-toned merchante, for in all cases of failure, and aa goon as ineolvency is declared, the property of the debtor is dedicated to the creditors without prefer- ence. Every creditor can rightfully claim and ia equitably entitled to his his full pro-rata ehare of the assests,and no-ereditor can take more without irjus- tice to all the others. Even where there is an appearance of fraud, a recovery by one creditor, by suit, of the whole amount of his claim, it ia questionable whether the money thus obtained ehould not be distributed pro-rata. In short no practices are allowable, from a Christian standpoint, that are inconsistent with the rule to “do unto others,” &c. “Pry.” A REPLY. My excellent correspondent, ia every line of whose writing I discern the marks of conaeicntious integrity and sincerity, doee not fully present my purpose. I stated simply the facts, without eudorss | ing or censuring Mr. Stewart's practice. (‘There is an honest diversity of opinion among good men on the question involved, and | was cautious to say the trath and to leave the judgment to others. This is | what I said of the dead merchant : “He paid every man his due, and ex- acted the same of every other man.

But it proves that patience, prudence, perseverance, pay: ing as you go, may be just as profitable as most rapid, hazardous, enterprishig credit system can be» The most succesefal merchant in the world bought for cash. In the year 1857, when commercis] houses were falling in the panic as if an earthquake shook the city, I beard thata basiuess firm of large capital had failed. I rushed to their counting-room and asked what it meant. “I heard you have sus- pended payment ?” “Certainly we owe nothing, why should we pay anything ?” And eure enough; there immense es- tablishment, employing hundreds of men, had been carried on for yeara, without giving a note to anybody. And when business became so dull tbat it was betier to suspend doing than to go on, they lay still six months, and continued to pay wages to all their men who coald not get employment elsewhere. ‘hey bought for cash, and now they use their millions tor the good of their fellow wen. A flourishing concern, doing a large basiness, took in a new partner who fonad the plan of baying on six month was the rule of the house. He prevailed on hie partners to alter the practice und gradual- ly to work iu a better. In two or three years time, everything was paid for when bought; the firm never gives its note to anybody for anything, and stand A No. 1 on all the mercantile Agencies lists. Let me not be misrepresented as say- ing that it is wrong to ineur debt. I say that success in business docs not make it necessary. Slow and sure is a very un- fashionable motto, and quite antiqaated, but it is good nevertheless. And as it is right to pay as you go, so it is right to insidt that every customer shall lf that rule ix in harmony with the will of God, on which the law of love is founded, then the law of love does not require me to release my Cebtor from his promise to pay.

It is in the line of the greatest commercial proeperity fort and New York, whep to let a note unpaid at the hour it was due, wasa tain that no water could washout. But now it is not go here or there.

For @ church, or a railroad company, or any association or individual to do so, ia A SIN AND A SHAME Misfortunes may overtake the best of men and make it impossible for them to! pay their debts.

There wasa time in London and Frank. | g common saying, atid it ie'as true as it “is common, that without grass, no cattle; without cattle no manurc ; without man~ ure, no crops ; and, we will'add, rapid de- terioration of soil. ‘T'o the neglect of und even hostility to this invaluable element }early in March, a bushel to eight or may be traced the alarming waste of Vir- | ginta’s soil—the gullies, “the pines, and broomsedge old fields, which present such a decaying and mournful scene to the passing stranger. Clover is the only woedinm available to the average farmer by which this sombre aspect can be chang ed to one ofa brighter ‘hne. It is ‘the only practical mode by which the organic food of plants can be restored to-an ex- haneted soil,or the inorganic retained. Detrioration of soil is occasioned as much, or more; by the abrasions of heavy rains as by the crops grown upon and taken from them. Every one at all observant bas noticed the differenee in the color of the water after a basty shower flowing off a well- grassed field from that from the surface of one destitute’ of grass—the clearness of the former, the discoloration of the lutter—from being saturated with the finer and most valuable constituents of the vorl—in fact, the available portion. The reclamation of worn-out lands by means of so-called manipulated guanos, in comparison with clover and plaster, on the seore of economy and efficiency, is simply preposterous. ‘They may be used as aoxiliarrés with the primary object of secaring a stand of grass; and if the in creased crop of grain over the ‘natural prodaction pays cost, the farmer should be sati-tied, and look to the stand of grass as the profit fur his outlay. As to auy permanent, direct tmprovement from their use, it need not to be expected. ‘They are oftet: so laden with inert ballast as scarcely to prolong the vitality of the young graes till it can be invigorated by an application of plaster. Hence the nes cessity of immediate application of the latter. lf clover is intended ta be ploughed under as an improver, it ehould be sowed, without mixture, with other grass seeds at the rate of a gallon or more to the acre, lightly barrowed in, and rolled and plas. tered as soon as possible, and again plas- tered lightly the two following seasons. ‘The first year's crop should be allowed to fall upon the land, netther mowed nor graz- ed till late in the season, and then very partially. ‘I'he second year's crop should be effectually ploughed under, deeply or shallow, according to the character of the soil, commencing as soon as the clover has attained iis full growth. Ifa heavy, stiff clay soil, shallow; if light and loose, the deeper the better. "he clay should not be distarbed for some time after | ploughing, to allow the admission of air moisture. ‘The first harrowing should be in the direetion of the ploughiag, the se- cond crosewise. By seeding time the elover will be ina decomposing condition, imparting warmth to tue soil and great vigor to the germi- nating wheat—aciing as a hot bed. ‘The failare of your correspondent, Mr. Garduer, to realize a good crop from hie green fallow must, [ think, haye been caused by burying the clover foo deeply beneath a heavy clay soil to be reached by atmoepheric inflnences, thas retarding lor preventing altogether its decompéei- tion.

It ia more certain to stand ou porous soils than clover or timothy, affurds the earliest and latest grazing of all the caltivated, and resists the hoof, as well as the native grasses, It is prolific of seed, which is easy to save, and always finds a ready market. Every farmer should at least save his own supply, as it is costly, from the quantity necessary to the acre. Asa fertilizer, clover stands pre-eminent. Its long tap root penetrating the subsoil to a depth beyond the reach of the ordinary plough; its soft, suceulent stem and elaborate foliage ; its rapid decay un- der favorable conditions, supplying to the cereals their appropriate food, gives to it a value, as a green crop, superior to peas, buckwheat, or any other legaminous plant.

English authority of great reputa- tion among his countrymen : “A friend of mine tried this in Northamptons| shire. He had a field of clover, which he di*) vided into two parts; the whole was cut at mide summer; half was left to grow again, and the other fed off. In October he staked out two pieces as regularly as possible, and had all the roots dug up and carefully cleaned and weigh- ed. ‘The result was, that where the clover had been cnt once and eaten once, there were thirty- five hundred-weight per acre, and where it had been cut Jwice, there were seventy-five hundred- weight of roots per acre; being a difference of two tons of roots per acre. Who will say, then, that two tons of vegetable matter, con- taining so much nitrogen as these roots du were not an exceedingly good dressing? Of course, the result in the wheat crops; was per- ceptible at once, and you may depend upon it that, with one exception, namely: where the soils are so light Wat the mechanical treading of the feet of sheep is a prime necessity, you will always get a better crop of wheat after two cuts of clover than by feeding off.” ee STRANGE SCENE AT A BURIAL. the Board: “Two years ago'the Commission, in. aying out the programme, expressly stat- ed that the Centennial Exhibliion would be open daring the period from May to November 19, from 9 o’clock mornings. until 6 o'clock everings, Sunday, excepts. ed.

I wish to dictate to no one, but, as for myself, I firmly believe that the one day's rest in seven is founded on natural law, and farther than that, is made binding by Divine acthority. Is is well to ghow the foreign nations the American idea of the Sabbath.

Mr. Gilson says he stopped shoveling on the instant, and looked around on every side, but could discover no one, and directed his attention to the grave, when the earth in the grave began to rise, especially over the head of the coffin, toward the sarface, this movement being accompanied by groans similar to those heard at first. At this Mr. G. being somewhat startled as he admits, cried out “My God! what have I done that you should come after me iu sach a manner?” or words to that effect. He then called to some of the relatives who were pro- ceeding homeward in a wagon, and who had reached a distance of sixty rods from the grave. ‘I‘hey retraced their way to the grave, and Daniel Wilcox and his wite Ellea, who had arrived: first, wit- nessed the upheaval of the earth two or three times after tle arrival.

Every lawyer knows that the Leg- islatare had no power to remove his disa- bilities, and in was doubted whether the convention, having been a resiricted one, had the power to do so; but as it was, the removal of his disabilities was defeated, if I am not greatly mistaken, by a republi- ean vote.

But it is said that the South is repre- sented ov this floor by confederates, and whenever we raise our voices in bebalf of aud honest government, and expo- sure of fraud and corruption, the force of what we say is soughtto be broken by the ery of rebellion and disloyalty. Now let me say ove thing about that, ‘The war, as every candid man will concede, resulted from a long~protracted and often bitter difference of opinion upon certaiv poluical questions. ‘These differences became sectioval, and culmiaated in an attempt by one of the sections to with~ draw from the Union, and a resolve on the part of the other that the Union should not be severed. ‘The issue was submisted to the arbitrament of the sword, and brave men fought it out. ‘The result is known to the world; every questinu iu- volved in that contest was honestly sur- | rendered, aud the soldiers of the South, with a quiet and submission to authority that was remarkable, sought their homes and the sweet pursuits of peace. “l’eace hath her victories no less renowned than war;” and they have bent all their ener- gies to the task of peace. I can say this’ of a truth as to the soldiers of the South, and I believe it to be trae of ihe great body of brave suldiers of the North, ‘I'he Union was to be preserved, and to be preserved for the sake, not simply of the Union, but of sivil liberty aud good government. ‘I'he soldier who was roused w deeds of daring and carnage by the by the ery of the Consiitutioa and the Uuiow, and by the rally of the old flag, believed that civil liberty was to be pre- served by that Union and under that Constitution. The soldier of the South, when he took with bim the same Consti- tution, was equally couscientious wheu he offered his life in the conviciion that he too was fighsiug for civil liberty; both were alike devoted to the same idol, civil liberty—the one fighting to maintain it iv the Unioa, believing that in this way aloue it could be preserved; the other to maintain it in a uew coufederacy, but both claiming to be freemen and the right to be freemen. ‘The Union was victori- ous, and from that day it was settled that civil liberty and good government must be preserved iu the Union, abd not out ofit. The right peaceably to secede and the sestional inatitatioun which was the alleged cause of secession were sur- rendered by ue, surrendered in guod faith by brave and tree men, and we were again in the Union. But our right to be freemen was uot involved in the issue. We never surrendered our manhood; we never surrendered our right to free gov~ ernment as we inherited it from our fa- thers; we never surrendered the proud and glorious memories of the past; we never consented to be elaves of ciaveus. We must be in this Union of States as equals or the Union isso in name and not iu deed. ‘T'he South must be repre- sented by men of her choice or this is a ia deed.

The lady insisted that the pony was “exported fram wherever Shutland ponies come from.” The gent, said it was nota Shetland pony and that the pony in question was an American animal. The lady seemed deter- mined that the Shutland Isles should not be lost in oblivion by her compahion, and by way of a clincher replied shat “she knew it wasa Shut- land pony, for the gentleman that bouglit it, got it from the man thatmade Shutland ponies.” ‘The young man changed the subject.

Have the cannon brought and employ its obstreper- ousness to aid in applause, a grand procession, the military, band, a fantastic brigade and the citizens to escort the orator through the princi- pal streets before the oration is delivered, We think this a capital idea. All our neighbor cities have had their big days and Salisbury must notbe behind them., Several gentlemen were mentioned for the orator of the oceasion, but they.could find no better person for the position than Prof. A. W. Owen. He was interviewed, but would not consent, positively, He though there ought to be a meeting and the orator se- lected. We agree with him and knowing our peo- pleas wedo, wedo not hesitate to annonnce;that there will be a public meeting in the court-house next Tuesday night the 30th inst. All are in- vited to attend. ‘The business of the meeting will be. to elect or select an orator and appoint a committee to fix upa programme and see that it is curried through.

St Louis Journal, May 23. Considerable excitement was created in East St. Louis yesterday morning on Ve discovery that the Belleville House, a twO story franie just south of the Pittsburg hailroad and Coa! Company’s dike, near the southern limits of the city, nud disappeared in the quicksand. The cireumstances connected with the unusual oc- currence are as follows: The house, which is used as a hotel, was built on piles, but, a few days before, showed evidences of an inclination to sink into the earth, On Thursday night it sunk about two feet, but the proprietor, Mr. F. W. Decker, not apprehending anything se- rious, paid very litle attention to the matter. On Friday night the. guests went to bed. as usual, but ata late hour the clerk, Mr. Geo, Heubner, discovered that the premises were tting rather unsettled, and ‘gave the alarm. re the inmates could realize what was going on the building had sunk forty-eight feet, carrying with itten persons... Atter. con- siderable difticulty they were all rescued, badly frightened, but not hurt. The backwater from the river soon surrouuded the place where the house stood and would very probably have car- ried it away if the gable end, all that is visible, had not been securely fastened with ropes to terra firma. Mr. Decker’s loss on the building is about $6,000, and on the furniture about $1,000. The house was recently pnrchased by its present proprietor, and in all probability it entirely disappeared last night, as very little of it was visible at a late hour. - —~—_—>— —-— FATAL ACCIDENT. We learn that last Satarday Mr. Frank Owens, who resides in Stokes county, some four or five miles west from Westfield, acci- dentally killed himself. -The particalars of the sad oceurrence are as follows: Mr. Owens went to a neighbor's house to borrow a gan to kill some squirrels for a sick person, The lady of the honse let him have the gun, and he asked her if it was loaded. She replied that she did not know, but believed that it was. Mr. Owens then took the cap off and set the gun down to blow in it. Whilst blowing in the muzzle he took his foot and pushed the hammer back, which coming down on the tnbe | discharged the gna, literally blowing his head off. He leaves a wife and three children to mourn his sad fate. So says the M. Airy Watchman. ——————~—~>-_—___ STATE AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY. Last evening the executive committee of this society held a meeting at the office of the secretary. Messrs. Blacknall, Hines, Creech, Nichols, Arrington and Denson were present. A programme for the ensuing fair was marked out, The committee will endeavor to make the coming exhibition the most complete ever held in the State, The resignation of Major John Devereux as secretary was received and adopted, and Capt. C. B. Denson of Pittsboro elected in his stead. Captain Denson will en- ter at once upon the discharge of the duties of his office.

Walter McCurry, of McDowell county, a pupil in the institution for the deaf and dumb and blind, has invented a machine for splitting shucks for matiresses, The machine was built entirely under his directions, he not receiving a single suggestion from any one. It is said by competent judges to work admirably. Walter is too poor to get a patent for his invention, so here is a chance for come benevolent person to help a poor, afflicted and deserving boy on the road to, fame and fortune. It is said shat there ia money in the invention, and mayhap in helping Walter along ay might be gained by the helper. “Cast thy bread upon the.wa- ters,” ete., and so on.—Raleigh Sentint.

A CHILD OF ROMANCE. A School-Girl Elopes With Her Friend's Betrothed—A Remarkable Listory. [From the New York Herald.] Etprep, Pa., May 6, 1876.—Among the young people of the best cirzlesof Eldred ‘Bleaxie’ Cuokton, aged 16, adopted daugh. terof Jerome Cookton a rich farmer, was an acknowledged leader. She recently re- turned home from a Philadelphia board- ing-school, where she had been a pupil four years, making occasional visits, home.. On one of these visita about a year ago, she met Alva Evans, the son of aéron founder, of London, Canada. He was visiting this section with a patty of other young men for the purpose of troat- fishing. Evans fell in love with Miss Cookton. ‘T'he result wae thata- corres: poncence was opened and kept up be-~ tween the two aud a marriage fixed upon, to be consummated when Mise *Blessie” sheuld have reached the age of 18. The room-mate and “particalar friend"’ of the young lady at school was Frances Peters, of Patersville, N. Y. She was two years the senior of “Blessie,” and left sehook soare time before the latter. Miss Peters is a blonde, exceédingly at- tractive, and of a dashing and reckless natcre. At the house of a friend in Philadelphia she met Isaac Bell, a young nan, represented to be of an old tamily and wealthy. ‘The young people formed an attachment for each other—at least Miss Peters fell deeply in love with Bell. As her parents had other matrimonial prospecta marked out for ber at home, she kept her acqnaintance with young Bell a secret from them, bat, it seems, promised to marry him at some fature day. Not being able to have her lover visit ber at home, Miss Peters made an arraugement with Miss Cookton by which she waato pay the latter a visit, when Mr. Bell was to go also and stay a few days. ‘Lo add to the completeness of the ar~ rangement, “Blessie’” wrote to her Cana- dian betrothed, and he was to join the visiting party. Miss Peters came to Eldred abdut the middle of April, and in a few days there- after Isaac Bell made his appearance. Miss “Blessie” liked him from the first. It was near the latter part of April be- fore Mr. Evans came from Canada. Dar- ing the two weeks that had elasped since the coming of Mr. Bell, Mise Cookton had transferred ber affections tv her friend’s betrothed, and his love toward {iss Peters bad visibly grown cold. It did not take the jealous eye of Miss Peters and the yonng Canadiun long to notice the change, as it affected them respeciively, but they had no idea that it was avy thing more than a temporary flirtation. On the arrival of young Mr. Evans “Blessie” planned a May-day par- ty for an excursion to the mountains. Ou Wednesday morning the party started, in accordance with previous arrangements. Miss Cookton and Mr. Evans in one car- riage, and the visiting couple in another. On reaching the woods the party stroll- ed at random. ‘They vatarally got some- what separated ; bat while Miss Peters and the Canadian were always in ballooing distance of each other it seemed that the other couple strélied fartheraway. The occasion seemed to be ove of no pleas~ ure to Evans and Miss Peters, and they, after an hour or 80, met near the edge of the woods and and sat down to await the return of the other couple. ‘They sat there talking for an hour or more, and as. there was yet no sign of either Bell or Miss Cook ton, both Evans aud Miss Peters betrayed evidence of uneasiness and alarm. . ‘Che Canadian told his companion to remain in her seat, aud be would walk back over the hill and look for “Blessie,” as he was fearful she had lost ber way. Le.was absent « long time, and finally returned, looking pale and ‘oe ia had eer A ehther of me missing yoang folke, — Peters was y over the resa)t ot bie search, but neither she nor Evans at that time entertained the ] covered with blood. eee a aD ace - ’ fi: 2 oC ae 7 : ofp qi a Sf ot tees ¥: 3 ao of sebieid set pg o0e7d Corot ' “not ' t of “Biessie” and ~ Bell was anything more than a girlish rai and was confident that they wonld tind them at home. On reaching the a they foand they were still absent. Miss’ Peters hastened to her room to hide: her emotion. Ina few minutes she sought and found Evans walking in the yard, , and’ placed'a note in his band. Tt read as follows: Dear Frank: So greatly do I love Mr. Bell that I have given up all for him. I hope you will be brave enongh to bear up, and think of me as the most cruel creature in the world. ‘Tell_Alva T have not the coarage to write to him nor to father and mother. We are going to be married, and intend to return to Eldred when the gossips are through with us. Farewell, Frank. Bid Alva farewell for me. 1 hope he bad learned to hate me before thia. B. ¢. Evans cooly handed the not back to Misa Peters, and remarked quietly : “T am glad to have found the young lady out before it was too late.” The same evening be was driven to the railroad aud retarned to Canada. The farm: er's family took the matter very calmly. Misa Peters, however, was found lying in her bed, about 7 o'clock the same evening With a small pen- knife she had severed the large arteries of both arms, and was veari® unconscious from loss of blood. But tor the timely discovery of her situation she would soon have past all aid. Her wounds were bound up, and a doctor summoned, who now has her in charge. Her parents were sent for and arrived here this morn- ing. ‘They will remove their unfortanate daughter to her home as soon as they can with safety. “Blessie” Cookton -has a remarkable history. She was found, in the sammer of 1860, on the doorstep of Farmer Cook- ton’s house, in a basket. Accompanying the infant was this note : This child’s father is the son of a Sen@ ator of the United States. [ts mother 13 a Gypsy girl, who has been converted to Christ and ean not bear the thought of this innocent creature growing in ignor- ance and vice, Is there room for it here? his litle wings are weary, and, like the Jesus, it has no place to lay ita head. ‘Targ it now away, but keep it, for the love of Cbriat.

Knowing that it was nearly useless to atiempt to get the Senate to agree to any legislation sach as we wanted he has not wasted time in in- troducing many bills simply for the name of it, but he bas however, offered several, among them a very important amendment to the Bankrupt Law, and he has. been warmly urging the dimination or abolition of the Internal Revenue ‘Tax, making a epeech on this subject which attracted attention, ad did aleo his speeches on the Belknap case and on the Centennial.

A few stalks of this grand, rank grows ing plant, in the garden or near the house, are highly. beneficial in many respects : they are great promoters of good bealth by freely absorbing malarious gases in the air and puritying it. The seed is splendid food for poultry i the wioter and spring. And, best of all, the seed of sanflowers is the most healthy food that can be given to horses ia winter and spring ; half a pint a day keeps them in Leakth and spirited, with sleek coats, and more animated, than any other food. It prevents “heaves” and other diseases. All places, with the least tendency to malarial difficulties, should have numbers of sunflowers growing about the resideu~ ces. ‘Then they are great favorites with little bires—yellow birds, blue birds, wrens, and many others—which will leave fruit and berries to perch upon and pick suntlower seed. It may not be gen- erally known that the seed of the sun- flower is the most infallible remedy yet | discavered for the speedy cure of founder in horses. ‘I'he direction which we glean ‘from a brief article upon the subject in the Essex Banner, says: “Immediately on discovering that your horse is foundered, mix about a pint of the "whole seed in his food, and it will perfect a cure.” Note By THE Eprror.—In that most excellent book, “Zhe Earth as Modified by Human Action” (Mars#), is found the following mention of sunflowers as a protection against miasmatic exhalations ; “Maury believed that a few rows of sunflowers, planted between the Wasb- ington Observatory and the marshy banks of the Potomae, had saved the inmates of that establishment from the intermit- tent fevers to which they had been for~ merly liable. Maury’s experiments have been repeated in Italy. Large planta- tions of suflowers have been made upon the alluvial deposits of the Oglio, above ite entrance iuto the lake of Isco, near Pisogn, and it i+ said, with favorable re-~ sults to the health of the neighborhood. In fact, the generally Leneficial effects of a forest wall, or other végeiable screen, as a protection against noxious exhalations from marshes, or ocher sources of disease, situated to the windward of them, are very commouly admitted.—Southern Planter and Farmer. —--—_-<>>___——_ A SAD TRAGEDY.

Weshall be glad to see our people who can afford to insure their lives take out policies in our home institutions for the very plain reason that it keeps our money at home by building up the fortunes of North Carolina men. Insurance Companies generally make money, and when our mohey goes out of the State for Insurance nearly all of it is so much clear gain to the companies and those who are managing them. It is thought that not more than $1 in 10 ever returns to bless those who send it out. It is proposed that our young ladies get up a strawberry festival fur the benefit of our band. Every one kuows that the band has been and is now a self-sustaining insti- tutiva and as there is coustantly « heavy drain ov them fur music and instruction, a complimeutary entertainmeut given them would be highly appreciated. Besideg the good it would do them pecuopiarily, it would teach them that var citizens appreciate and honor them as a band."Aad again, our young people would be brought together in svucial auivn and evald evjoy with avalloyed pleas- ure an innocent amusement. Ifthe young ladies will get up thefestival, the young men will patronize it. It isa melancholly sight indeed to behold a local editor at his desk these hot evening», a pile of papers lying before him large enough to copy three times Robison Crusoe’s exploits with Cinderilla’s glass slipper, or to wrap up two messes of smoked herrings and onions, without an item worthy of mention, perambu- lating the upper story of his apacioua cranium. We see the sweat-spiration trickling down his troubled countenance and bad words dancing a jig on the end of his tongue as he exercises the muscles of his arms to rid himself of the fifth plague dent upon the egyptians and at last in agony he drags himself along the rugged edge of despair and cries out with unlifted eyes out of which briny tears are rolling majestically : “Oh, for a land of Goshen, where locals grow "on horse apple trees and flies consider them- selves above lighting on any man’s nose. In- deed the locals road is rough and rugged and few are the flowers strewn in his pathway. DECORATION. Early on Tuesday worniog the colured people began to fluek iuto the city. Excur- siun trains down the western and from both ends of the N.C. Railroad brought in hua- dreds during the morving. About one v’- clock a procession, headed by a band (com- posed of culored gentry) marched out to the National Cemetery. The programme not being made up till 12 o’clock, it was im- pussible fur them to.act with much coneert. Some strewed their flowers and left, others remained to hear the orations. The pm- gramme was as fullows : SINGING NATIONAL AIR, Prarer—by Elder J. Greene, (cul.) MUSIC. Addresses by Rev. Mr. Martia(white.) Avd Rev. Mr, Denning, (white-) MUSIC. Addresses by A. B. Lourance (cvl.) Rev. A. 8. Billiogsly (white.), aad Mr. McDonald (white.) MUSIC. Benediction by a colored gentleman. ColeT. B. Loug aud Mr. Bird were ex- pected. but did vot make their appearance. There was very little said of a political Ba- ture, though the seotiments of each speaker leaned in that direction. The whice vrators tried to impress upon the negroes that every drop of blood spilled by the northero armies waa fur their freedum—to free them from the chains of slavery, that that was the prime object of the war. It le useless to urgue this question here. sinee every intelligent reader kuows it was ouly oue of the iveidents of the war. Again, they regretted that awong that vast audiecee there appeared no white faces. The white aud black pevplemsaally divide in churches, in polities and ia social gather- ings. The speakers knew this well envngh; and as the black people were very early af- ter the war incited by designing leaders to take the lead in decoratiug the graves of federal suldiers, the white people bave giv- eu it up tothem. It is one of their holidays and the white people are willing that they shall have it. That is all there is in this— this, and nothing more,—is sufficient to de- termiae the course of var white people oo the subject. Under other circumstances they act differeutly. But they will nut be everced into measares aceom- pauied by so much that is distasteful to gratify a set of men who have perverted a a sacred ceremony to base political purposes.

College, at Mount Pleasant, this county were opened on Sunday morning, 2let inet., by the delivery of the Bacca- laurate sermon, by Dr. Conrad, of Phila- delphia. He preached from the text 2ud Peter Ist chap., 5th aud 6th verses. His subject was bandied in an able manner, aud tue sermon made a deep impreéeion apon the large audience preseut. Sunday evening an address was delivered befor- the Young Men's Obristian Association, by the Rev. Dr. Dosh, of Salisbury, The exercises of Monday night were opened with prayer by the Rev. K. P. Julian, after which Mr. J. W. Moore was introduced to the audience and proceeded with: his oration, his subject being, *“T'ri- ucph of ‘T'ruth."’ For one of hia age and experience, we think Mr. Moore made a splendid effort. His address was echolar~ ly and entertaining and Le was loudly applauded at its conclusion, but he was too busily engaged with the lovely boquet« of flowers showered upon him by fair hands, to notice it. He was followed by an able and well directed address from Mr. J. D. Heilig, of Salisbury, upon the subject, “Dignity of Labor.” His cum- posure upon the stage, graceful manners and good oratory won for bira the admi- ration of all present. “he acedemic ex. ereises then followed Mr. Heilig’s address. The young men acquitted themselves in good style and were frequently ap- plauded. ‘Nuesday morning an address by Dr. Cunrad, was delivered before the Literary Socieiies, and in the evening Rev. J, C. Moser addressed the Alumni Association. His address was followed by the installa- tion of the President. We were not pre- seat at this interesting part of the cere- monics and cannot report it. Tuesday evening at 7 o’clock, the annual contest of the Literary Societies took place. Mr. J. K. Efird, of the Pi Sigma Phi Literary Society, led off in an able essay upon the subject, “Gospel on Civilization.” At the conclusion of his address, Mr. W. D Henkle, of the Pbhilalwthian Society, took the floorand spoke at length upon the wabject uf “Music.” He handled his subject well and acquitted himself band- somely. The next in order was the orations. Each Society bad one repre sentative. Both of them spoke well, and if they will only cultivate their talents, may some day make fine orators. Owing to the illness of a debator, the debate which was to come off, was obliged to be omitted. Oar limited space forbids our giving the details of the addresses made by the graduates on Wednesday morning. We will only say that the addresses were sound and sensible, and were delivered in a manner, chaste and elegant, ‘They proved that the many weary days spent ander the roof of their mach-loved Col- lege, poring over dry text books, were not epent in vain. And now that they are freed from the cares and troubles of college life, and turned loose upon the cold wold to seek their fortunes as best they can, may they be guided by the noble precepts tanght by their instructore, emulate their good examples, and bring into use, always, the instructions received ander their care, so that when old age overtakes them and “‘silver threads among the gold, shine apon their brow,” each one may be able to think that his life has not been a failure.

Yes, sir, we are actually at work to make Chapel Hill what she was in ante bellum times.

There is no pathological fact more clearly ascertained than that the most formidable phases of nervous disease is directly trace- able to impegfect digestion. Insomnia, with its train of direful consequences, proceeds more frequently from weakness ofthe stomach thaw from any other cause. Mere sedatives are powerless to cure nervousness, ard soon cease to paliate its symptoms, The true way to strengthen the nervous system is to invig- orate the Cigestive and assimilative organs, upon whose unobstructed action its equilibriam is absolutely dependent. The daily use of Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters will do more to brace and soothe the weakened and irritated nerves, and induce sound, refreshing sleep nature’s grand cstcholicon—than all the so- called nervines to be found in the pharmaco- ecia or out of it. A wineglassful of the Bitters hould be taken before each meal. —- —--- ape - -- Reine Rater tthe.

Itis this: ‘The white, under three winates’ rapid cooking, becomes tough and indigestible, while the yolk is left suft.— When properly cooked the eggs are done evenly through, like any other fuod. This result may be obtained by patting the eggs into a dish with a cover, as a tin. pail, and then pouring upon them boiling water, two quarts or more to a duzen eggs, aud cover and set away froin the stove for fifteeu min- utes. The heat of the water cooks the eges slowly, evenly, and sufficiently. and to a jelly-like consisteney, leaving the centre or yolk harder than the white, and the eggs tastes as much richer and nicer as a_ fresh egg, and no person will want to eat thetn boiled after“haviug tried this method ouce. aes The Old Man Gone. _ The Lancaster (3.

Shipbuilding existed in New England, and brick-making in nearly all the colo- nies. ‘here were but two steam engines in the territory; one built in 1772, for use in a distillery in Philadelphia; the other ler copper mines, at Passaic, N. J.» Both were of the Newcomen type. No agri- cultural machines were kuown, except, perhaps, the grain drill, no cotton mills existed, and the green seed or staple ecot- ton alone was cultivated. Nota printing press existed west of the Alleghanies; and there were only forty, all band machines of the crudest type, in the colonies. Thir ty-seven newspapers sufficed to spread in- telligence. From Boston to New York was a week’s journey by conch, sloops and in winter, colonicis in Virginia were practically isolated from those in Massa. chusetts. Certaiuly no vation ever em- barked in so gigantic a struggle worse prepared ; for of the material prosperity whence the sinews of war are drawn, the colonies were destitute. Canada, refusing to join them, furnished vantage ground for the invader. The Spaniards along the Miesissippi looked with uo favor on the rebellion, and the English in Florida were actively hostile. Thus on the 10th day of May, 1776, just one hundred years before the opening day of the Centennial, the few bat resolute inbabitants of the thirteen colonies tonnd themselves hemmed around with foes, bankrrpt in money and in in- dustries wherewith to gain it, menaced by an uprising among the Indians on the border wildernesses, disunited iu thought and feeling among themselves; and to crown all, a British army was preparing to attack New York, while all the sea- board cities seemed doomed to certain and swift destruction. Yet, in the face of these terrible odds, Ludependence was proclaimed, and the nation was born. I: is our purpose to present hete some brief account of what Americans have ac- complished in Science and invention since the bell in Philadelphia pealed forth “lib erty throaghout the land.” Mach must necessarily be omitted ; of nothing can we take more than a passing glance, so vastand varied are the achiewmente which beyond all else, have combined to create a great and powerful nation in the short- est period kuown to history. To the same apecetry that asserted their rights as freeBorn men, aa ancestry gathered from the skillfal workers of all countries, are due the frugal and industrious habits, and the indomitable preservance and ea ergy which characterize the Americgn people; and it is well to remember that ju efforts toward progress were found the dence. The industries of the country being woolen nor flax manufactories; all were J had been imported in 1736, for the Sebny- | plied between New York and Albany . | the facility of adepting means. to ends, the very restfictions placed upon their impelling causes of the war of iadepen~ | PT we kat (wae one te ress up to the close of the conflict: is meager in the extreme. Lhe discoveries of Fraviktin, the fitst great Se of thé New World to Science, bad « been made; it was in 1752 that he domees stated the identity of lightning with the electric spark, and drew elecwricity from the elouds. Early in 1775 be’ left Eo-~ gland, where he bad beew honored and courted, and returned to bide his fortunes with bis mauve country; bat eren the engrossing labors imposed upon him as a memberot the Continental Congress and a. frabeér of the Declaration were not sufi- cient todigtract his attentiog from Science; and when seut as Commissioner to Paria, he took advantage of the voyage to make observations of the Gulf Stream and plot a‘chart of that great current, which still forme the basis of our maps. One other man, that of David Ritten- house, of Philadelphia, may be noted besides that of Franklin, whom he sac- ceeded as President of the American Pbi- losophieal Society. Rittenhouse was a clock maker, and cartied the perfection of his art into the manufacture of orreries, which still exist,-and whieh show he movements of the heavenly bodies for a period of 5,000 years, aud their positions for each year, month, day, and hour with marvelous aceuracy, He made a success: ful observation of the transit ‘of Venus in 1769, and on acceuntuf his great math- ematical attainments waa elected a Fel low of the Britizh Royal Séciety. After peace had been declared, the country found itself exhausted in resour- ces and io men as well, and saddled with a debtof farty million dollars, with no system of public revenue wherewith to provide for it. Financial disaster follow- ed, and private confidence tell in the wreck of public faith. It was no time to await the slow development of events, and the people reeogniged the fact. It seemed ag, it every one worked with a will. The whir of the spinning wheel and creak of Athe loom were heard all over the land — | Every family became a mauafacturing |society. Iw 1784 New Jersey alone lad forty-one fulling mills for woolen fabrics and not a woolen factory ir the S‘ate.— Iu two countics ia Virginia, 315.000 yards of flaxen cloth, 45,000 yards of | woolen, 30,000 yards of cotton, and 45,- { ooo of linsey woolaey were made in one lyear by household labor. One family | completed 1,355 pair of shoes in a year The inventor's skill was quickly called into action. In 1785 Oliver Evans, of Philadelphia, first applied steam machinery to the grind~ ing of plaster and sawing of stone, and to flour wills. ‘Then he invented the cleva- tor or bucket chain to raise grain, the conveyer to tuke it fran place to place, the hopper bay to spread it, the drill to | carry it by rakes instead of buckets, and j the kilu dryer. In 1799 he attempted to | build a steam carriage, and iu eo doing | iuvented and coustructed the first high | pressure steam engine. In 1785 Jobo Fiteh built the first steamboat, and ran it on the Delaware river. It had-reciproca- ting paddles, and steamed at the rate of | eighty miles per day. During jhe sne- jceeding year James Rumsey propelled a | boat on the Potomac by a stream of water | driven out through the stern by a steam engine. In 1790 Jacob Perkins, of Mas- {| tachueetts, invented a machine for cut- | ting and heading naila, which produced | thoge useful articles at the unprecedented rate of 200,000 a dav. On the 3Ist of | July, 1790, the first United States pateut was issued, the patent and eepyrightlaws being both first enacted iu that year; and thereafter a marked increase in the num ber of inventions becomes visible, At this périod, the growing cotton in- | dustry of the eonutry seemed to hive | encountered av obstacle, which bid fair 'to be a serions one. Lland-clianing of | cotton was slow and costly; aud unless mechaniert weans could be devised, the new staple could cever become a soarce of wealth. It se happened that phere then came to the bouse of Mre. General Greene a poor student, from Yale College, named Eli Whitney, who, in various ways stowed himself possessed of cousideruble mechanical skill. While some officers, her gueate, were one day regretiing the absence of the machine above noted, Mrs. Greene laughingly suggested that Whit- ney shoald invent one. ‘he yourg man overheard the words and remembered them. He had never seen cotton in his life; but making hia way to Savannah, he obtained a small quantity and, shatting himself up iu a room, went to work. Lt is said that the saw gin war suggested to him by the accidental use of a toothpick te try the tenacity of the eed. Within4 ten days after he began experimenting, he made @ model which was capable of cleaning 50 Ibs. of green seed cotton dai ly. Thes was completed one of the greatest inventions of wodern times, and one which the inveator lived to see result in increasing the eotion production from 5,000,000 to 215,000,000 Ibs. In 1796 tho great scientific discovery of the non-materiality of heat was made by ancAmerican, Benjamin Thompson, Count Rumfor, then residing in’ Munich. [I> had deserted his countty during the war, and accepted service uuder a foreign prince. “his discovery lies at the foun. dation of the mechanical theory. ef. deat, and direetly led to the grandest doctrifies of modern Science, the car 00 of forces and the Conservation of enérgy. - Wemay ‘note the establishment of broom making as a new industry, and the invention 6! broom making machinery fr 1797, b lakers located along the | Mohawk, ver, Lathe same: A Mohelede OY 7ds Wepeer. res Amos the fires machigg for nufactare of woo! and cottoy cards; this device prnes. ured the Teather and*set the wires This »ved of great value toe«the. indastry, and highly remunerative to te tnvew A _ wt wep avec? ‘gaat T — c 2 % tor.

Ta 4801, anne blowpipe was invented r, Robert Hare, of Philadelphia, one of ths greatest as- well as the earliest of American scientists. Ih }oecurred to him that a flame prodaced by the combustion of oxygen and hk gases ought to be attended with a higher heat than that generated by barning charcoal. Bat the two gases mingled in certain proportion prodaced a d explosive mixture, and» Day Hare was thus led to adopting the expedient of storing the gases in separate vessels, and bringing them together by tubes which met at the poiut of igsition. Now followed one of the most impor- tant advances in steam navigation, al- thongh the fact was not recognized for years after. It was the practical demon-~ stration of the efficacy of the screw pro- peller, by Colonel Jobn Stevens of Hobo: ken, who in 1804 built a boat containing a Watt engine, « tabular boiler of his owa in¥ention, and the bladed screw. It was & pirogue soure fifty feet long The ma- chine itself is still ia existence, and was iMustrated in these columns some time ago, Daring the same year, Oliver Evans ran av amphibious, etern paddle- wheel boat on the Delaware and Schuyl- kill rivers. ‘This was driven by a double action high pressure engine—the first of its kind—which rotated wheels when the crait was ashore, avd operated the stern paddle when afloat. In 1806, ‘Lhomas Alanchard, of Massachusetts, in- vented a machine which made 500 tacks per minate, with perfeetly finished heads and points. Soon after, be devised an apparatus for turning gun barrels through- out their entire length by one self-direc- ting operation, “his was the initial work which culminated, twenty two years later, in the magnificent invention of the lathe for turning irregular forms. Blaach- ard’s inventions are now applied to many operations in making amsket stocks, and comprise no less than thirteen different machines for making different portious of the weapon. The following. year, 1807, witnessed the triumphal voyage of Robert Faltoa’s steemer, the Clermont, from New York to Albany. Falton at that time was al- ready ap inventor of repute, both in En- gland and in the United S:ates. He had devised « will forsawing marble, machines for spinning flax aud making ropes, an excavator for canals, and he had success- fully tried, probabby, the firet submarine torpedo boat. It wasin relation to the latter that he retarned to this country from Eogland. Here he received a con-~ gressional appropriation, and made some suceessful experiments in blowing up vesselx; bat ullimately Commodore Rodgers reported the system impractica- ble. Liter, he obtained the exclusive right to navigate the Hudson river iu bis steam vessels. In 1814, Fulton built for the United States government the firet steam wae vessel, a heavy and uowieldy mass, capable of making about 2} miles per hoar. The war ct 1812, in which she was designed to be ased, terminated be- fore her completion. Fulton died during the constraction of the vessel. Dariug the year 18U7, oil cloth for floora was inveuted and wanufactared in Philadelphia, and Join Bedford of the anure city devised the first metal-bound boots and shoes. ‘The first breech-load- ing military arms ever offered to troopa, aud likewise the first fire arm made on the interchangeable system, were ioven- ted by John H. Hall, of Massachusetts, in ISL1. Some of these old weapons were captured at Fort Donelson in 1862 Ju 1812, anthracite coal was for the firat time eucessfally atilized. It appears that Colowel George Shoemaker, ‘of Potts- ville, took nine wagon loads of the “black stones” to Philadelphia, aud there sold two wagon loads to Messrs. White & Hazard, wire afmufactarers. Whité and his firemensworked faithfally for half a day, bat the stones refased to baro; whereupon at noon they slammed the furnace doors shut in disgust, and went to dinner. On their retarn the Coors were red hot and the furnace in danger of meliing. Meanwhile the Colonel bad eold bis other seven Joade to less success- ful experimenters, ang was by them ar- rested as a swindler for selling them rocks for fuel. Daring the war of 4812 bet very few military inventions appear. Probably the most important was the eplngpbind, a long chambered cannon capable of pro- jecting shot and shell at high angles and with heavy charges. It was devised by Jolonel Bomford, Inq 1813,. Francis GC. Lowell invented namerous important im- provements in the power loom, notably the stop motion for winding on the beams for-dreasing, and the double speeder to regalate the movements of the dy frame ia filling the spools. ‘The first important American improvementiu printing presses appeared in 1817, and was the Golambian press, invented by George Clymer of Philadelphia, The power was applied to the platform by a compound lever covsisting of three simple levers of the second order. ‘The first transatlantic voyage made by a steam veseel was ac- complished. by the Savannah in 1819.— The was of 389 tuns burden, and was dr by paddles.

[From*the Southern Planter and Farmer.) DOGS AND SHEEP. oo It is necessary sometimes fo bring antagon. Liem together in ofder to bring about recon- cili tion. In the minds of somé farmers there could searcely be two thitigs named more antagonistic than the two which head this article. Light‘and darkness, beat and cold, fire aud watet) may, in their minds, bear some reset, but they only faintly illustrate the antagonism be- tween dogs and sheep. I confess it re- quires some boldness to step forward and advocate the cause of a class of domestic animals so aniversally anathematized us the dogs are, when mentioned in connec tion with the sheep. But justice requires that the truth should be known and con~ sidered before a sweepiig judgment is pronounced, even against a yelping cur. There is a philosophy connected with the chasing of sheep by dogs which it may be well for sheep raisers to consider. Every. body koows that sheep are timid, and ate frightened at the very appearance of a dog; and if a dog makes his appear- ance in a field where there are sheep, they willran from him as long as they can see him, and this will they do withoutany show of hoatility ow his part. And everybody knows that it is the natare of a dog—es- pecially young dogs—to chase all animals that can run fromthem. Probably nine- ty-nine of every hundred dogs convicted of sheep-killing were led into it in this way. How then, shall we prevent it? I tell you what I did a month ago. I have a small flock of sheep which I feed and attend to myself I also have a young pointer dog, and be is foud of go-~ ing with we wherever I go. One morn- ing, when I went to feed the sheep, the dog went along, and it.did.not oecur to me what a mortal hatred sbeep .bave to- ward dogs, until I reached the field where the sheep were and saw them faking to their heels as for life, and the dog just ready to take after them. I scolded the dog and called she sheep, and, though gentle, [ could not induce them to came back to their feed until EF had pot my poiuter the other side of the feuce; and even then they eat as though Shey felt an- safe, and had a suspicious eye all the time toward the innocent dog that stood looking through the fence at them and secmed to be wondering what the difficul- ty was. The next morning he started with me aguin, but I bade bim go back ; but when I had gone some distance. 1 looked back and he was looking after me, and seemed greatly scandalized that I had forbid bim to ge. Saddenly it flashed upon my mind that the reason why sheep are so wuch afraid of dogs is. beeause we always drive the dog back when we go emong the sheep; and the reasons why the dogs chase the sheep is that they are never allowed te see them except by ac~ cident, and then sheep run fiom them, and if not under the eye of the master, four | dogs out of five will- give chase. While I thocght thas I bade Ponto come along. I have atlowed hitn to go every time since. For the first two or three mornings the sheep were afraid of him, though be did not dare to cross the fenee ; bat -all- fear has now subsided, and be goes with me into the field and walke rouod and looks at the sheep as though he felt that it was, his special businees to see that they are fed ; and they are about as niuch afraid him as they are of one another. Is it be cause they know him as a particular dog? or would they not be lees frightened at the approach of any other dog, as the rex sult of their acquaintanee with him? I thiuk there is a lesson here that may be learned with profit. If farmers who raise sheep would often take the dogs with them when they go among the sheep, the dogs would find out thatthe sheep belong Ltn the place, and they would as soon think of killing and eating the hogs as the sheep, for dogs love hog meat just as well as sheep. And the sheep would soon learn that tbe dog ia just as harmless as any other animal, aud they would learn not to be frightened gt his aperodcy unless he actually chased them. am in favor of a dog tax as a means of reducing the sar- plus dogs ; bat taxation will not prevent my pointer or your setter from ranuiug after sheep if they run from them, tright~ ened balf to death, when they ‘happen to enter the field where the sheep are, on their return from the Hignt, and we are uot in sight.

I prefer the large Berkshire breed to any other breed I know of ; to the experienced he has the appears auce of indicating beth skin and flesh of a coarse quality. Nothing, however, can be finer than the bacon, and the animals attain to a very great size (from five hun dred to eix hundred pounds being the average weight when completely fatten- ed). It not unfrequently happens that a young sow will eat her young ones, she should therefore be carefully watched and well fed when about to farrow ; which may be kvown by her carrying straw in her mouth to form her bed. Care should be taken to seperate her from other pigs, the boar particularly, or he will infallibly devour them. The sow, at farrowing time, should be enclosed in a pen, with a shelter at one corner wiih a bed of straw or leaves. At the close of about a week after farrowing the sow should be allowed to leave her pen for a short time every day, and wheu the brood acquire a little strength, they may accompany her. If the brood be too numerous, they should be lessened as soon as possible, by killing some of them at the age of a fortnight or ters.” Six or seven, or at the most aine, are qnite as many as should be left, The sow, during the whole period of nurs- ing, should be supplied with an -aband- ance of the most nutritions food, consisting of cooked potatoes and corn meal, or some~ thing equally nutritive. ‘The young pigs, even while sucking, should not be left wholly to the nourishment afforded by the sow, bat shoald be furnished two or three times a day with skim-milk made lnkewarm, and having a little corn meal mixed with it; in about eix weeks or two months, they will generally weigh from thirty to-thirty six pounds, and be strong enough for weaning ; iv doing which, they should be gradually separated from the sow, only altowing them to suck at first twice, and then once a day. As regards fatteu- ing, it is true that hogs are very com-~ monly fattened and killed at ages not ex~ ceeding eight or ten montha, bat I have found, by experience, that the animal is not iu his prime until two years ald ; and if kept a year longer the flesh will havea still higher favor ; for that substantial consistence of fat, which constitutes the main value of bacon, can only be acquired in perfection by age. Some varieties of pigs, (the Cliinese for instance) arrive to nearly their full growth within a year; but the Berkshires, and all the large brecds, increase with good keeping as much or more in size and’ weight daring the second year as they do in the’ first. From five to eight weeks ig the averagé time requisite for fattening, but to fatten thoroughly a hog of the large Berkshire breed for bacon for the farm hands, etc, would require ten or twelve weeks. But, for my own usc, I prefer bacon that is less fat. Whole corn, boiled potatoes and corn meal mixed with slop from the kitchen, I bave found to be the best food for fattening hogs. I feed’my fattening hogs three times a day (as much as they will eat) onthe above articles, and one of my hogs will generally weighed more than any two others in the neighborhood. To havé a good breed is of vital impor- tance, and as I said before, I think the Berkshires are the most profitable. ~ Wirral Bey. Fauquire county, Va. ———_ -ao-—_—— A MORALs PARTY.

We publiah in another part of this paper an interesting letter over the well known initials, E. F. R., who never fails to throw acharm over the valuable pro- ductions of his pen. We know of no bet- ter method of ascertaining the facts in thé history of P. S, Ney, than that adopt- ed by our correspondent, j. e., gatherin all the well authenticated incidents re- membered by those who knew him in life, whieh of course will be valuable in proportion as they are foand to be con- current, and leading to the some defivite conclusion in respect to the great ques- tion of his identity with the celebrated Marsbal Ney. Werhave no recollection of the rumor- ed interview in Virginia between P. S. Ney, and a person believed to be his son; and if any sush thing was published in the Watehman as intimated by our cor- respondent, it was probably when the psper was in the hands of its founder, H. G.Jonnzs, Esq.; and sometime be- tween’ the years 1832 and 1839. We made the acquaintance of Mr. Ney, about the year 1840. He was then teaching either in Davie, Iredell, or the western part of Rowan. He was fond of writing, and frequently contributed poetical arti- clea tothe Watchman, nearly always on political or patriotic subjects. Weare very clearly of opinion that the intelligent people by whom we were sarrounded in those daya were not con- vineed that P. 5. Ney -was the French Marshal, but on the contrary seemed dis- posed to regard the popular stories rela. ting thereto.as largely imaginary, and springing from various mysterious utter~ ances.and acte of his when under the influence of spirituous liquors, ia which he oeeasionally indulged to excess. Our opieion on the subject was formed from the lisaitéd personal knowledge we had of the man while yet living and m)stly from the impressions made upoo us by those whom we heard talking of him. It Sean Interesting inquiry, and we aro | te. promote it as well for the grat- Hieation of the public as for the discovery of the trath, if, indeed, it is now possible to ‘arrive at it. —-—-—~-———____ THE CROOKED IN NEW ORLEANS.

A Man Falls from the Tower of the Court House, and is Instantty Killed. Sunday afiernoon a conpacily built stranger, of fair complexion, light hair aod moustache, passed up Main astreet. A apirit-level and square over hia right shoulder, to which was suspeuded a small earpet bag, indicated bis calling, and his business here—a brick~mason in search of work. He had footed it from Green- ville, S. C., and though fatigued and travel-worn, wa was an air of tidinese about his apparel} combined with a frank open countenance, that favorably im- pressed the eascal observers that passed him. He stopped at the boarding house of Mr. N. P. Ubedester, and early Mon- day morning sought and obtained em- ployment of Mr. Henry W. Scott, court- house contractor. He was directed to Mr. Deacon, waster builder, who assigned him to work ou the tower, where an arch was being constructed over a window which fronts east, and which is about fourteen feet from the roof of the main building. He had been at work bat a short time, when those near him heard him give an agonizing scream, and the next instant be had pitched over the wall. Alighting on his head on the roof, the body, with a coovulaive effort, turned a complete somereaalt, and, stretched at full length, rolled down the south side, first slowly, but then with the rapidity of thought, to the eaves, and then dowy! down !—fifty feet—to the bard ground, among the disintegrated grauite rock of which the foundation of the building is composed. Striking upon his side, the unfortunate man bounded five feet from the contact ; but no ery or groan escaped bis lips. Horrified spectators ran to his assietance, but he bid passed beyond their aid. Tbe heart, which bat a mo- ment before beat high with hope at the favorable change in the condition of his affairs, had now ceased jis pulsations. — They beheld nothing but e@ crushed and lifeless fellow-man, whom their sympa. thies could not affect. They tenderly bore him to the neareat house, where an examination proved that his neck, lefi thigh and ankle were broken, right side of skull crushed, and right shoulder bruised, No one could idemify hiw.— Around bis neck was a leather string, to which was attached a clasp ring, similar to those in which crucifixes are woro by those of the Catholic persuasion. A bunting-case sil-er watch was in his vest pocket, and in his pants pocket was a wallet coataiuing 24 cents, two sleeve- battons, and a gold ebirt bution. Ou his shirt was printed in Jegible characters, “M. Conway,” and this is supposed to have been his name. Ho stated to some of the guests at his boarding house that be was a native of the Emerald Jsle—the land of that generous, impulsive, but un- fortunate people, whose courage, ende- rance and fidelity have ever been the marvel of the historian and the theme of poets. For An Irishman carries his heart in his hand; It flows like the water that circles his land; It beams in his eye, and there's nought so sin- cere, Asan frishman’s smile and an Jrishman’s tear. He was buried Tuesday morning, at 9 o'clock, in the Catholic cemetery, Father Frederick, of Baltimore, deliver- ing an impressive oration, and performing the beautiful serviee of that charch over the dead. _ P. 8.—Sines the above facts were put in type, Mr. Hs W.

When I sew your article about Marshal Ney, 1 had just taken down the following statement from the mouth of a gentleman well known in Salisbury, and who was an eye witness. Heis not certain about the year, but about 1830; the informant was then about 14 years old, attending Mr. Ney’'s school at Cedar Hill, two miles above Mocksville. He was accustomed to take out Mr. Ney’s mail, as he lived in town, and and Ney boarded at Thomas Foster's, half a mile from the school bouse. One morn- ing as usual, he took out letters and aud gave him. After reading the former, took up a paper, and in s few minutes was observed to turn pale and tremble with rage. He jumped up, threw the paper on the floor, stamped on it, till he tore it to pieces, cursed it, saying, “Now lie there!” adding, “The schoo! is dismissed.” Some of the larger boys pare ao of the house, rushed in a “What is the matter, Mr. Ney?” He replied, “Young Nepoleon is dead ; my hopes are blasted; I have a family in France that I never expect to see.” He went to Mr. Foster's, went into his room, locked the door, burned his pa- pers; put one end of his trunk into the fire and sat down on it, purposing to burn him- self with if. Mrs. Foster, smelling some- thing unusual burning, broke open the door, and found him in this position. He had bought a good many books, but now he gave them all away. Though it was near the end of a term, he did not re- sume the school at that place, but several months afterwards, he was invited by some of the citizens of Mocksville to teach at Flint Hill, two miles on the other side of town. He staid at the Academy on Satardays, reading aod writing, and invited the boys to come at those times to learn fencing. One by the name of Hughes he told to hit him, which he did once, but received some hard raps inreturn. He joined in thesports of the bogs, but was very rigid in school. He taught a system of stenography peculiar to himself which none but his pupils could understand. At the time that he was teaching in Va, it was reported in the papers, and some say, in the Watchman, thatasonof Marshal Ney was in America and had an interview with him. Some one says that when he taught on Hunting Creek, in Iredell, boarding at Mr, Houston's, he marked out on the sand by the side of the creek, after a fresh, the scene of the battle of Waterloo, and showed where his command was, but afterwards told the witnesses to say nothing about it. Dr. R. H. Dalton, now of California, in a letter to Mrs. John H. Dalton, March 10th, 1876, says that in 1827, he commenced the ractice of medicine in Guilford oo., N. C. t was nears hotel on the public road. That Ney stopped there several days on his way to Raleigh to consult about writing the history of N.C. He learned that he was a Frenchman, but it was not indicated by his language. He spoke of the great Surgeon ot Napoleon, and delighted to dwell on his character. Hedrew him out in subjects involving the history of the French Revo- lution, and it was evident that no one but an actual participant in that wonderful drama could have delineated the facts with such clearness and precision. He says, “I ventured once, by way of ascertaini whether he was Marshal Ney or not, to if he was related to the y of that, great man. He gave an evasive answer.” Soon after hecame to this country, he was teach- ing in the family of Mr. Irvin, near Darling- ton, 8. C. He wae sitting by the fire, one day at ahotel, apparently in astupor. A traveler present, was telling what had seen in Europe, among other things he. vis- ited the grave of Marshal Ney, when sud- denly hr roused up and said, “Well you may bh. 2 been there, but he was not there.” We are desirous of gathcring up the vari- ous traditions, and the facts lift Pil relating to him, in the memories of his for- mer pupils and friends, for fature use, Hon. Geo. Bancroft is in his secret, but will not reveal anything. If not the real Marshal Ney, what prominent military officer was he under Napoleon ? E.F.R Ex.porapo, N.C. May, 80th 1876.

The quiet of this remote section was brok- en day before yesterlay by an unprovoked attack upon the person of Jehu H. Davis, by the wife if James Pucker. Davis was raised up among the Quakers and when smitten *‘un one cheek turns the other also,” bat Mrs. Tucker nut aceustomed to *‘shuffle, cut and deal” aod play both hands herself, becaine provoked with quaker usages and fell upon yaok with houp poles. hand spikes and the like with a fury pot often exhibited by one of her sex.

A blooming, eager, grateful throng were soon Hew, A. M. Waddell to the Societies. His introduction was full of aroma of beart- memories and fell like the voice of weep- ing love on the responsive hearts of those who rejoiced to hear their own sentiments so eloquently uttered. The body of the addrese was a fresh, vigorous and impres- sive discourse ov the government of the early futare and contained excellent coun- sels to the young gentlemen who are to live beneath its sway and participate in the gnidance of ite destiny. Ac 4 P. M. Kev. Dr. Ts H. Pritchard delivered an earnest, touching and. profi- table discourse on infidelity. The sermon, while it displayed learning and ability, was peculiarly ereditable in that it showed the paramocat anxiety of the emivent miniater to accomplish the chief object of his bigh calling. At night the six representatives of the Societies delivered their maiden speeches to a crowded audience. Be it remembered that these young men were not graduates, but from the let, 2ud, and 3rd years’ classes. None of them had been here, of course, more than one year. Yet, as I furetold in a recent article to you, they spuke as well and in every way made as fine an impression as did the graduates iv other years.

Botany is a3fdivision of natural science which treats of plants, and a stady of Veg- etable Physiviogy mast be the foundation of botanical knuwledge—a study only pussi- ble by the improvements ia the microscope acd in organic chemistry. As plants are not seattered haphazard over the earth, bot- anieal geography must be studied. and, with this, plaot-history. Botany may be applied to the wants of every-day life, as in Agri- culture, Horticultare, or Medical Botany. Animals often exhibit a marvelous instinct iu selecting medicival herbs, aud an obser- vation of their habits has often, eveu in the present time, led to inost valuable discov- eries. And should man, with his knowledge and appliances, fail to discover less than the brute? It is of Medical Botany we would apeak, or of the HEPATINE PLANT, discovered in Southern Nubia, the Flower of which changes its.culor withevery change of the atmosphere. The remarkable changes and variations of this Plant and Flower have been fur years owr special study, resul- ting in the discovery of its possession of wonderful medical properties, the existence aud value of which have heretofore beeu en- tirely anknown to medical science. After touch labor aod écivotific investigation, we have succeeded in extracting its peculiar medicioal principles, which is a specific end cure for all diseases of the Liver, Stomach and Bowels ; a perinaneut cnre fur Dyspep- sia, Indigestion, Spleen, Constipation, Jaundice, aod all Bilivus Complaints. Of svarse we caunot senda living Flower of this Plant to all who read of Hepatine; bat to all who will send their address to MER- RELL & CouDeENn.

Their effect on the nervous system is prompt, quieting restlessness, imparting re- freshing sleep and vigor to the whole systew Tho citaek young will be alike benefited by the use of this teal estimable medicine. a IS YOUR LIFE WORTH TEN CENT?S Sickness prevails everywhere, and everybody complains of some disease during their life. When sick, the object is to get well; now to say plainly that no person in this world that is suffering with Dyspepsia, Liver Gomplaint and its effects, such as Indigestion, Costiveness, Sick Headache, Sour Stomach, Heart Burn, Ipitation of the Heart, Depressed Spirits, ident; &c., can take Green’s AUGUST Frowers without geting relief and cure.

TO 1840. In no @ra of our country’s existence does it appear that greater progreas was made than during the twewty years pre vious to 1840. Early in 1840, Dr: Rich- ard Hare introduced the deflagrator, a form of voltaic battery capable of giving effects of great intensity, and also another form of voltaic apparatus called the calor. imotor, desigued to generate, with a low intensity of electricity, an enormous vol- ume of heat. By means of it large rods of platinum can be ignited and fused in a few seconds, and its magnetic efforts are ‘equally surprising ; yet it is hardly capa-~ ble of producing the faintest spark be- tween the carbon electrodes. During the same yeac Henry Barden invented his first cultivator, which was the begin- ning of a series of splendid inventions.— In 1825 he received a patent for a ma- chine for making the wrought spike, and iv 1835 for a horseshoe machine. Then followed au apparatus for making the hook-headed spikes used. ow railways, a self-acting machine for reducing iron into blooms after paddling, apother horseshoe machine, a machine for rolling iron into bars, and fivally anentirely new machine for horseshoe making, which is a marvel of mechanical skill. It is self- acting, and produces, from iron bare, horseshoes at the rate of one a second.— From these several inveations, Mr, Bar. den amaseed an immense fortuna Also in about 1820, Jordan L. Mott invented the stove for barning small coal. Pte-~ viously only large lumpa had been de- voted to domestic purposes, and the small fragments were wasted. During his lifetime he took out more than forty pat- ents connected with coal barning apparat- us, and also instituded the change from blast farnaces tothe cupola in making stoves and other light castings. His son earries on the business of his father at the present time in this city on a most ex- tengive seale. In 1832 James McDonald, of New | York, patented an imporjant machine for breaking and eleaning unrolled flax and hemp. During the following year, Nicholas Longworth, of Cincinnati, made his first essay in making wine from Ca- tawba and other native grapes, thus j starting the manufacture of the famous Catawba wines. At the eame time auoth- | er great inventor became known in the persou of Joseph Saxton. In 1823, he | invented the machine for giving the epi eycluidal form to the teeth of notched | in 1825 he made an astronomical | wheels ; clock, for adjusting the compensation 10d in the pendulum of which be invented the reflecting pyrometer and comparator. lu 1839, he went to London aud there in~ vented the magneto electric machine. - Subecquently he devised a self-register ing tide gage, a deep sea thermometer, a dividing engine, and an hydraulic pria- ting presa with flexible platen. In 1824, the Franklin Institnte io “Philadelphia was founded, and in the fall of the year ita first aunnal fair was held. Daring the same year, Zadoe Pratt es tablished his great tannery in Prattsville, on Schobarie Creek, N. Y., for the man- ufacture of hemloek-tanned leather. He probably tanned more sole legtber than any man in the world, and. it is said, em- ployed a eapital of over $250,000, and covtinued the business till hie death, without a single litigated lawsnit, or the loss of one dollar in bad debts, or having a single hide stolen. He was elected to Congress in 1886, and there proposed the intrednetion, through United States’ con- suls and national vessels, of foreign seeds and plants for distribution by the Patent Office, and publication and engraving of all important patented inventions for circulation throughout the country, and the establishment of a bureau of statistics. The year 1825 is memorable for the com- pletion of the Enie canal,* one ofthe greatest engineering works in the coun~ ‘try. It couneets the Hudson river with Lake Erie, is 363 miles long, and costs only about $8,000,000 to construct. — lin 1825 the fires house faruace using flues was employed in Philadelphia, by Pro-~ fesaor W. R. Johnson; and in London Jacob Perkins exbibited steam artillery, which did good experimental executions against iron targets, before the Duke of Wellington. The first eigns of the electric telegraph new becomes apparent; for in 1826, Har- jrison Dyer ereeted a line on Long Island and used frictional electricity to give sparks wherewith to make chemically prepared paper. Dr. Nott, of Union Col- lege, in the same year, patented hia cele- brated stoves, which gave him a world- wide reputation. Inu +1827, Joba Me- Clintie, of Pennsylvania, devieed the first practical mortising and tenoning'machine; and iv the eame year Mr. W.'C. Red- field published bis “Laws of Storms,” wherein by long-continaed observation, he showed that storms are vast whiyl- winds, having both a rotary motion and a motion of translation on a curved path Mr. Redfield’s diseoveries are of immetise value, gince they afford a knowledge of cyclones which enables navigators to avoid them. ‘Tbe first locomotive trip in America was made on the Oa ale avd Honesdale road in Penasylvania, in 1828. During thesame year, the first American patent for a locomotive was ob- tained and the firat straw and hay r +was made. It was in 1928 that ian ton spinning how in general use, and then, like Saxon and Burdef, produced invention after invention wit eclerity. In,1829 be invented mills with eccentric grinding plates, never beeu fully superseded, | Sees eae eam madblae for trans- Bogardus invented the ring Ayer for cot- | wo ga2. the Beh Per Carre ferring bank note plates. In 1836 he devised a marvelonsly ingenious engra- ving machine, aud in 1840 machines for pressing glass tuasblers. He aleo made im tim ments in drilling ma- chines, and in, 1847 erected in New York the first cast iron building, we believe, ever constructed. We now xeach the period when the discoveries of Professor Joseph Herry, foremost of living American scientisis, were made kuown. Previous to his in- vestigations, the means of developing magnetiem in soft iron were imperfectly anderstood. He was the first to prove by actual experiment that, in order to develop magnetic power at a distanee, a galvanic battery of intensity thast be em- to project the current through the ong conductor, and that's magnet sur- rounded by many turns of one long wire must be used to receive this current. He waa alsothe first to actually magnetize a piece.of jron at a distance, and he inven-~ ted the first machine moved by the agency of electromagaetism, In 1820 be exhibi- ted to the Albany Institute electromag: nets of power saperior to any before known; in 1831 he transmitied signals by en electromagnet through «a wire wore than a mile io length, and caused a bell to rug. Ta 1833, while Professor of Natural Philosophy at Princeton College, he explained the electromagnetic tele- graph, but he never reduced the princi- ples deseribed to actual practice. Pro- fessor Henry also as nearly as 1830 de- monatrated that the discharge of a Ley. den jar consists of a series of oscillations backward and forward, a fact afterward by bim proved tirne of lightning. He also made the remarkable discovery that a voltaic current indaces an extra current in the conductor in which it is iteelf con- veyed, which, however, manifests itself only on making or breaking connection with the battery. ‘The system of con- ductors adapted to the demoustration are flat spirals of copper ribbon, known as Henry’s coils; and by these, induced car- rentea of the niuth order have been de- | ménstrated, and the possible number is theoretically anlimited. ‘The years 1830 to 1833 were pfolific ia electrical discovery. Following sv close upon Henry's investigations as almost to be mingled with them came those of Dr. Charles G. Page. He in vented ingenious eleetromagnetic lco- motives, two of which pulled a car, weigh ing eleven tons and carrying fourteen an hour; he observed that the molecalar changes in a bar of iron produced by 15aKeee wd FHSS * fo in-s Siete < gets prt a ‘+ ee 1 tye Reerteee et ue so Fes 3 pifi by dies from # evil of five wire. In 1833, Hlussey, of M made the first harvester, It bad open fiugers, with a knife reciprocating in space. He was followed ia 1834 by Cyrus H. McCormick, who jnvented the reaper, in which a sickel-edged sectional knife was reciprocated by mechanism from the drive wheel, and fingers gath- ered the grain. ‘bie was an invention of great importance; and it met with worldwide asage and secured great re- wards to the inventor, who still carries on the business of mannfactare on an en~ ormons scale in Chieago. Dai ln 1834 Professor Denison Olmsted, of New Laven, Coan,, by observations of the great meteor shower of the preceding year, reached the theory that meteore are portions of a nebulous body drawn into the earth's atmosphere and inflamed by the heat generated by the resistance of the atmosphere to their motion. Daring the next year, Dr. J. W. Draper began hia maguificent investigations of the actinic rays of the epectrum, which included ex- periments on the absorption of the chewi- eal rays by solid and "Tqnid media, the decomposition of carbonic acid by light, the interference of chemical rays, the erystulization of substancea by rays of light, the supposed magnetizing properties of light (which be found not to exist,) and the effects of light upou vegetation. Dr. Draper was the first to photograph Fraunhofer’s lines, the first to take a portrait by daguerreotype, the first to suggest the relation between the spretra of incandescent bodies afd their physical or chemical composition, the first to deviee charts of the spectral lines of bodies, the first to explain the mechanical cause of How of sap in plants, and that the yellow ray and not the vielet produces the reduc- tion of carbonic acid therein, and the first to photograph the moon. No oue Amer- ican iavestigator has made more original researches, or extended them over a wider ficld, or contributed more largely to the general progress of Science, than Dr. Draper. In 1836, another great invention ap- peared in the, shape of revolving fire arms, which were patented by Colonel Samuel Ooh, of Hartford, Ooon. These were first used in the Florida war of 1837; but it was not uatil the outbreak of the Mex- ican war of 1847 that Colt erected the works io Hartford which-bave since as-~ sumed such immense proportions. Colt _also invented a submarine battery of great passengers, at ihe rate of nineteen miles| power. Iu the next year (1937,) A. A. | Wells patented the process nuw in gen- eral use for forming the bodies of far bats . . ° ' *_* . . magnetization are attended by audible by depositing the material directly oa a eouudls; be inveuted a pole changer where< | perforated coge revolving in connection by a magneto-electric machine may be, with au exhagsting fan. At about this made a substitute for a galvanic battery ; time John Erjessou successfully applied in electroly.ie and galvanoplasiic opera-| the screw prapeller to purposes of navi- tions. He also devised the earliest form gation in England, and immediately of induction coil, and made a large nom~ thereafter emigrated to this country, to ber of important discoveries in connection | which belongs his subseqaent record, of therewith, resulting iu the invention of a which mention will be made fcrther ou. spark-arresting circuit breaker, It was in the autum of 1832 tha: Sam- uel F. B, B. Morse, then an artist in painting by profession, embarked at Havre to return to this country. On that vuoy- age, while in casual conversation wih a passenger on the recént discovery of the relation ef elsetrieity and maguetism, he conceived the idea of the electromagnetic and chemical recording telegraph sub- stantially as it now exists. Hefore the close of the year a part of the apparatus was coustructed in New York; but the telegraph was not experimentally exhibi- ted in operation until 1835. In 1837 he filed a caveat and soaght, fruiilessly, Congressional pecuniary aid. From this time, the inventor's life was a continued struggle against scanty means and ad. verse circumstances, until the season of Congress of 1842-3, when he obtained an appropriation, and in 1844 the experi- mental line between New York and Washington was completed, andghe prac- ticability of the electromagnetic telegraph demonstrated. To Professor Morse is also due the origination of submarine tel- egraphy, and the first submerged lines were laid by him in New York barbor in 1842. He also made the first daguerreo- type apparatus and took the first sun pic- tures produced in America. In 1832 Edward Evans patented the method of anhairing hides by sweating, without the use of lime. Daring the same year, Dr. Samael Guthrie, of Sackets’s Llarbor, N. Y., discovered eblerofurm, although he did not understand its true constitution, and called it chloric ether.— At this period also was prodaced the first lock stiteh sewing machine, by Walter Hunt’ ~ He made and acid his machines, but was an erratic genius, too vergatile to be successful, and through his sheer neg~ ligence lost the opportanity of acquiring the fame and fortane which Elias Howe and other patenters sabsequently realized. | In 1832 M. W. Baldwiu, of Phil delphia, | | Iu 1859 the United was engaged in’perfecting many of bis. locomotive the plan of inventions = iu He devised numerous mechanism. smoke box, metallic ground joints, and other valuable improvements. His most important inveation was the flexible truck locometive, patented jin 1842. Seth Boyden, of Newark, N. J., had already discovered the japav or varnish by which patent leather is produced, and had laid the foundation of the manufactare of that material, which has been successfully curried on at the latter place ever since. He also porsued experiments with a view to convertin, the hardest laminated iron into soft malleable iron; and these suc- ceeding, be began making malleable iron castings, between 1831 and 1835. He subsequently invented several important improvements in steam engines, notably the ent-off instead of the throtile valve, and the connection between cut-off and governor. The first . anlomatie machine appeared and was m iavention of Dr. Johan I. Uowe, of Conneeticut. 1t formed the head of the States government despatched an exploring expedition to the antartic regions. No other exploratiors of that part of the globe have eince been made, aud the somewhat doubifal report of an antartic coatinent, brought back by the United States’ vessels, has not been fully verified. During the same year Charles Goodyear wade the important invention of yuleaniziug india rubber.— He had already discovered a method of treating the scrface of native india rab. ber by nitric acid, which allowed a surface of rubber to be exposed on goods, hither- to impracticable owing to tbe adbesive- ness of the material. In the course of expecimeuts in 1839, be found that a piece of rabber, mixed with ingredieuts among which was sulphar, upon being acciden-~ tally brought in contact with a red hot stove, was not melted; but that in certain portions it was charred, avd in other por- tions remaiued elastic, though deprived of adhesiveness. More than sixty patente were afterwards taken out by him tor im- provements in treating india rubber and ca articles manufactured from it. In 1839 also Erastns B. Bigelow invented his power loom for weaving ingrain car~ pet. ‘I'his machine could easily weave trom twenty-five to twenty-seven yards per day, whereas the previous hand loom paoduction never exceeded cight yards. ‘The invention was tollowed later by a powe? loom for Brussels and tapestry carpets, ove of the most ingenious pieces of mechanism ever devised. Mr. Bigelow also invented a machine for weaving coach lace, and another for weaving counterpaues, both of which are in exten- sive use. Ilere we may close the review of a period remarkable for th? namber of great inventions made during its contins uance. ‘The origiual types theu prodaced have since formed the foundation of thousands of modifications and improve- ments, and the end of making such changes seems far from being’ attained.— Progress therefore since 1840, thoagh rapid, is due to development of previous attaching cylinders to the outside of the | P : ideas, wore pethaps than tv origination of new ones.

Respectfully, Re Y. McApDDEN. ee A VOICE FROM THE SOUTH. ———., MIss1ssiPP!, March 4, 1876. Hoa. - Dear Sir : To an outsider anxious that harmony shall evail in the views of the Domocrats of different sections, it appears that entire suc- cess will not probably attend the present ‘efforts being made at Washington to bring about so desirable a condition of feeling. I say “appears,” because I can only speak of things as they louk to a “layman” at this distance. Although I sympathize entirely with all effort to produce unity of sentiment and action upon the financial question, it does seem to me that if a little more de- termination of purpose to go for hard. mon- ey were made apparent by those who favor that view of. the question, supported by those who are not so deeply concerned for the success of that principle as for a change of Administration, 1t would do more to se- cure concert of action than anything that has yet been tried. I take it for granted that all the Southern States except South Carolina and, possit ly, Florida, will vote for the nominee of the Democractic party, without much regard to his views upon the financial question; simply because to them (the Southern States) a change of administration, with all that implies, is of nore consequence than the question of “gold and silver, or green- backs”-——important as they recognize the latter to be. This will give us 127 electoral votes to start with ; and as 185 is a majori- ty. there will be only 58 more necessary 10 order to succeed. To most Northern people it would no doubt have the appearance o political heresy to state that any question is of importance than the one of finance. Be that as it may, it is none the less true, as re- gards us of the South. Ifthe North knew the situation in the South, especially, if they had felt as we have, they would, perhaps, look at the matter as we do, "promising that any candidate who will be nominated will get the 127 Southern votes, s above specified, would not the votes of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut, making 50, and those of California and Oregon, making 9 more, be safe for the Democrats with a hard money man? This would give us a 186 votes, and that would be a majority without another State. It is ap- parently very doubtful, even with a soft money platform, about carrying any of the Western States ; and such a platform would probably lose us all the above Northern and Pacific States. The chances to carry those above mentioned for the Democracy with a hard money platform are evidently much better than to carry the Western States, or any of them, with a soft money plat- form. An intermediate platform,would prob- ably carry neither. Besides, if the Western States saw a determination to carry out the above policy, enough of them would proba- bly acquiesce to make the triumph assured for a larger majority ; if, indeed, any of the Western States can be carried by the De- mocracy, at all; which is more than doubt- fal. The South, I think, does not favor con- traction ; but a hard money platform can be made without contraction, and resuming as egriy as 1879; it resumption be, as is gener- ally held, impossible without contraction. I think the entire South, with the exception of the two States previously named, will go for the nominee of the Democratic party upon a hard money platform, if there were no contraction feature in it, That is the way it looks to me, . ; ; The desire for. change of Administration is more strenuous with us than any and every thing besides, All this I say without intend- ing to give an opinion on the mooted ques- tion of “gold or greenbacks * but to show the only way, as it seems to us here 18 the South, to secure a change of Administration —a thing the South needs, and at present wants, more than any change in finance and currency, important as that may be, Very Truly Yours, * * * ————— the value of timber on journal instances time, hth > ne in not a a from a witness who is under their protest» | really 0 ion,; | Pee ree tenth. ni papisvaes (iow The Kerr cornmittes is. quietly com uing ite investigation. .

Swepaenn, 4 writerin your last paper, gives us a very interesting ac- count of hia method of training farm doge 80 ag to obviate the danger of their de- stroying sheep. His plan is very good so far asit goes, emiuently practical and kind to the dog. Bat it only measurably meets the practical question of how to secure protection to the sheep-fold. I: is easy for a farmer who has a flock to teach his dog,to let the sheep alone. | have a dog and sheep in the same yard very often, and the sheep drive him about as they please, not because the dog could not destroy them, but because he knows they belong to.the family and that I want them in the yard. But this, however good in itself, falls far short of the main trouble. There is not more than one farmer out of ten who keeps a flock of sheep, and all the other nine keep one or more dogs each. ‘I'he sheep raiser eau’t teach these dogs to respect his flock, and from them comes the danger. Many dog owners allow their dogs to pick up a living as best they can, rarely feeding them more than the crambs from the ta- ble. Dogs are lovers of flesh, and when it is not given them, are apt to seek it wherever it may be found; and the tim- id, noiselegs sheep is more apt to be at- tacked by them than any other of the Gomestfe animals. connected with the Peabody fund and its disbursement by me.

MR. PODS’ PREDICAMENT. —— BY 6. EB. V. Mr. Pods weighs about two hundred pounds, is a young bachelor, in good cir- cumstances, and consequently takes things easy. The hot weather greatly affects him, and he isin the habit every day, just after he eats his dinner, of divesting himself of his outer garments, and lying his mammoth form on the bed to cool off and take a nap. Now it happened that on last Monday Mr. Pods’ chamber maid took the bed cov- ering and put it out for an airing, Jeaving the feather bed, a mattress and the pillows remaining on the bed-stead. Mr. Pods, as usual, disrobed all but his shirt, threw him- self on the bed, and was just beginning to doze when he was aroused by hearing fe- male footsteps approaching his room, and the next instant he heard them stop at the door; then it occurred to him that he had forgot to lock the door when he layed down. Presently he saw the door-knob turn, and jumping up he erowled between the feather bed and mattress just in time to avoid be- ing seen by bis neice and another young lady, who had come to solicit a contribu- tion from him for some charitable parpose. The young ladies thinking that Mr. Pols was out, and that he wont return soon, seat- ed themselves to await his arrival. Now here was a nice predicament for Mr. Pods to be in;-there sat the two young ladies in his room, while he, in a nearly nude state, was lying under the featherbed, nearly smoth- ered, while the perspiration was oozing out at-every pore, and running into his eyes al- most blinded him. “Confound those girls, I wish they would leave,” muttered Pods to himself as the feather bed began to settle more closely about him. But the young ladics had no idea of leav- ing until they saw Mr. Pods; and to while away the time, they proposed to “straight- en up” his room, and setting ta work, the very first thing they began to “straight- en up” was the bed. They took hold of the feather bed to remove it from off the mat- tress, but great was their surprise to find that something held it fast. Their curiosity now being excited, they redoubled their efforts, and each taken a stronger hold on the feather bed gave it a smart pull, when, oh horror! Mr. Rods’ hold gave way and off came the feather bed. The youny ladies gave a scream and rushed out of the room, while Mr. Pods bounched out of the bed and made the hastiest toilet that he ever did in his life. In future when Mr. Pods’ neice calls on him for contributions she will send in her card before entering his room, and Mr. Pods will be careful to lock his room door when he goes through the cooling off process. -__- PHILADELPHIA, Juve 9th, 1870. Dear Watchman :—We left Salisbury, N- C.. on 5th iast., on the 8 30 A. M. train, aud reached this city next day at 1 o'clock P.M. Our traveling companions, two lit- tle girls, stood the trip well. To-day, wr visited the Centennial groands, went through the Main Exnibitinon Hal!, which is over 1800 feet long aad 400 feet wide. and in which we saw woolen, cotton, linen aud silk goods, in great variety, from different nations, Also, glass aod other ware. Hardware. cuttelry, silvery ware. jewelry. clocks, cabinet furniture. and other like handiworks and all in gaeat variety. Here we also noticed carpeting and other house farwishing goods of foreign as well as of American works. Implements of different kinds from different nations: Organs. Pianves, and other musical instraments ; printing. priuting presses in full blast, fire arms, mechanical tools and other things useful as well as ornamental to onerous tu apecify. The whole was a grand display. and mast be seen to be appreciated. Next we went into the Machinery Hall: here we saw a great variety of articles of fine work- manship, of foreiga as well as of domestic manufacture, among other things the long Engine of 25,000 burse power. It was a big thing; aud many other wachines and other articles of usefulness. In Government war implements, such as cannons, guos, swords, sabers, pistols, &c. Also, Minerals of iron. eval, granite, ‘nica, lead, silyer. eop- per, gold and other ores; wild beasts of the furest, and birds of the air stuffed, fishes and animals of the sea, staffed; of all of which there were a great variety.

The Evil Fruits of Weak Digestion. There is ‘no pathological fact ‘more’ clearly ascertained’ than that the niost formidable pliases of nervous disease is directly trace- able to imperfect digestion. Insomnia, with its train of direful conseqnences, proceeds more frequently from weakness of the stomach than from any other cause. Mere sedatives ure powerless to cure nervousness, ard soon cease to paliate its symptoma, The true way to strengthen the nervons system is to invig- orate the Cigestive and assimilative organs, upon whose unobstructed action its equilibrium is absolutely dependent.

And should man, with his knowledge and appliances, fail tu discover less than the brute! It is of Medical Botany we wonld spenk, or of the HEPATINE PLANT, discovered in Southern Nubia, the Flower of which changes its color with every chauge of the atmosphere. The remarkable chauges aud variations of this Plt and Flower have been for years vur special atady, resul- ting in the discovery of its possession of wouderful medical properties, the existence aud value of which have heretofore been en- tirely unknown to medical seience.

GRADUATION DRESSES. An inq"iry has been instituted in the school committee of Boston as to what means cau be taken to secure simplicity of dreas among pupils on graduation day and other public uceasions. Miss May, Migs Peabody and. Mr. Huatebius were appointed td report, the former having introduced the inquiry. ‘I'he Boston papers. regard this step as an indication of the practical uses of the custom in vogue there of electing women to. the public echoul committee. It is quite sure that the elaberaung to which graduating p4wake making calculations of business, dresses are carried causes a great deal of time-and money to be devoted to personal adorument and show. We sometimes forget, in delight at the resalt, how much vanity has been stimulated in some pupils aud bow much. beari-barning and envy in athera, .

Mach has been said and written upon the importance of sleep iu maintaining a healhy condition of mind and body, and much remains to be said aud written upoo the same subject ; fur itis one of great im- p-rtance. Let a man or woman become reatleas and slecplesa,.at night, aud. let sleep come irregularly, and fiifully, as it huppens, at night or iv the day, and . you find such a person becomes mentally weak, fickle, easily raffl-d,- childish, in. constant, forgetful ; but let the condition change, and the pergon 40 affected be- come regular again in taking repose, and you dud btw regain, in time, his vigor and decision of character, anlesa age or other weakness forbid a sound. state of health. “Night is the time for rest, The séasou for repose ;" and no amount of day naps will fully atove for trogdbled and broken reet at night. The fact is, you would have a ‘sound wind in a sound body, you must sleep well at night. To do this you must not get fidgety and alarmed, and get up at uight, and fuss around, make up a fire, or take a bath; for if you do @ few. times it takes the chionic form of habit, and it will —in- crease upon you. No; be sure that you make all right before you retire, then close your eyes mechanically, if you must, and keep them closed, awake or asleep, uulil morning: If sleep still keeps at. a distance, count a thousand ; repeat your ald lesson in Sabbath-school, or bymne, over and over; be sure you do not keep or troubling your mind, or exciiing it at all ; bat calm it, soften it, a8 you woald a crazy friend, and eoon you will get sleep, plenty of it. —+ ~<a AIM HIGH. Tt ig aim that makes the man ; without an aim man is nothing, aa the utter des~ titation of force, might, and even individ- uality among men can reduce him to noucntivy. ‘Ibe strong gasts and currents of the world sweeps bim iu this way and that without steam or sails to impel or helm to guide him; if he is not speedily wrecked or run aground, it is more ‘lack than good management.’ We have nev- er heard a more touching confession of utter weakness and misery than these words from oue singularly blessed with the endowuments of natnre.or providence: “My life is aimless.” Take heed young man, of an aimlées life, take heed aleo of a low and sordid aim. A well ascertain edand generous purpose gives vigor, diminetness, and perseverance to all man's efforts. A well disciplined intellect, and cheerfulness within ; snecess and honor without, are its concemitants. Whatever a man’s talent may be, with no aim; ora low one, he 4 weak and despicable; and he cannot be otherwise than respectable and iuflueotial with a high one. The.

Easton, Jane 5.—The poisoning of the Laros family, which has been the subject of conversation in this community for the last three or four days, proves to be a strange tragedy. Martin Larosa, the murdered man, re- sided juat below Sandito Eddy, about four miies from this place. The family consisted of himself, hia wife, six childcen, and Moses Schug, who boarded with him.

While the meal was in progress two or more of the victims spoke of the peculiar taste of the coffee, but Allen ridiculed the idea and it himself.

In some cases the efforts of the physician proved successful, but in oth~ ers death ensued. Mrs. Liros died about 7 A. M. on Tharsday and ber husband at aboat 1 o’clock of the same day.

After a very thorough search it was found that on Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday of last week some one had purchased four and one half ounces of that article at 4 drag store in this place. . The druggist, feeling certain of his ability to identify the persou to whom he had sold the poison, was taken to the honse in which the marder was committed, and the result was that, upon being cou- froated with Allen C. Laros, he recog- vised him as the man who had purchased the poisun.

He told the officers where they would find the money, and an examivation of the spot which he pointed out disclosed a place where the earth showed that it had been lately disturbed. After digging about eighteen inches the officers came upon two pocket books, which were found to contain about $350, the sum for which Allen Laros bad planned to send father, mother, brother and eister into eternity.

Steele's speech at Wadesboro, in accepting the nomination for Congress : In the great struggle which lies be- fore us, I only ask that our leaders shall be men of courage, character, unremitting labor and unsuspected devotion to our cause. Let their metal have the clear ring of the old Mexican dollar, and not that dubious and uncertain sound emitted by the debased eoin of the Centennial miut. I only ask, as one speaking from the bitter experience of 1872, that our Presidential candidate shall be in “thor- ough and sincere aceord” with the great Demoeratic party of the country. I want no more ® »ngrels —and whether it be the chivalrous Bayard, the pure and amiable Hendricks, the former enemy bat now the gallant and sincere friend of the Southern people, the noble Haneock, the fearless and able ‘Thurman, the “Noble Old Romaa,” ‘Tilden, or the “Great Un- known,” [ shall give him, for his cause, the most ardent and enthusiastic support. In this State I want no better leader people's rights, Zebulon B. Vance. Let all our candidates be living, laborious, capable aud honest. If all this shall be, then, by the blessings of Heaven, this land will soon be freed from the banefal influence of a party which has debased the ebaracter of the American people by tke profligacy of its official representa~ tives, from the very door of the Execas tive Mausion to the lowest and meanest aneak connected with the interaal reve- nue vyetem of the Government. We shall have no more Belknaps and Bab- eocks, whiskey rings, and the general official venality, which marks this ad- ministration, as the blackest page in our history. Iiavoke you, my friends, to “shake off the dew-drops that glitter ap- on your garments,"’ to rise up in all your might and majesty, as American freedom —bold, honest and patriotic—and strug- gle for the salvation of your country —for whatever else has been lost “our country yet remains.” If we will all do our duty, when November's sun shall set, we can, as | sincerely believe, sing with grateful hearts the song of Miriam and the Re- deemed, “The Jehovah has triumphed. His people are free.” ee SYNOPSIS OF GOV. VANCE'S SPEECH. At the cloee of the Conservative-Dem-~ ocratic Convention all the delegates aud many strangers and citizeve repaired to the National Hotel and ealled out for a man ifthe did not accept the nomination, and it was honor enough for him to be the choice of the largest Convention evor beld in North Carolina. I congratalate you fellow citizens that there is once more a pruapect of the Government of North Carolina being administered in accordance with che 'eu Uommandments. The Re- publicans want REFoRM, bat they want it ia their party; but we cannot hope to create a reform inthe Repablican party. “Come out from among them ye people, and serve the Lord, saith the ford.” Belknap’s great complaint is that he was capunk by rebel officers. They float the bloody shirt inthis way.

Reception of Gov. Vance at Home— Grand Demonstrations and Speeches Jrom Vance and Steele. A self-appointed committee having been advised in response to a telegram from Raleigh that Gov. Vance would be home Thareday night last, 15 iust, on the 9.20 train, bills were printed and cir- eulated upon the streets, calling for a rat- ifieation meeting ia Independence Square upon his arrival. Long before the train came, tur barrela were set on fire in the Square, and a large and eager crowd gathered upon the wet streets, and an- xiously waited for the traia to come, in order that they might bear what their distinguished towneman bad to say after the houor with which the people had just crowned him. A delegation was in waiiing at the depot when the train came up, with a six horse phaton, drawn by four grey horses. Gov. Vanee, Col. Steele, Capt. Waring and Sheriff R. 8S. Harris of Cabarrus, were given seats in this pha:on, and were driven to the square, when, as soon as they appeared, th: band struck up, aud amid the music and in the light of the bonfires, shont after shout of “Harral for Vance!" rept the air. When the vehicle game to a halt, the enthusiastic maltitade gathered around it as though they had never before seen the man whom they had assembled to honor, Amid contin ved applause the speakers were eondyeted to the stand which had been erected for the occasion on a street corner, and Capt. b Waring arising upon this, introduced to the vast audience, jn a few exceeding tasteful remarks, ‘‘North Garolina’s {a> vorite son the tribune of the people, Zebulon B.

OF, OHIO, Its ts Hayes of Olido—not® Blaine or Conkting, or any of tle offitr nominees. Rathertord B. Hayes, ‘now Govetior of the State of Ohio, was yesterday nomiua- ted by the Oincinnatti Convention of the Republican party as ‘ite candidate fur Presideéut of the United States. * ° + s&s * * @ Hayes iv a candidate Whose weakness and animportanee are his principle reeém- mendations to thé Republican party. His record ia brief and ‘slight, ‘though he is fifty-four years old. [4 wis’ ah Olio lawyer, served fora time in the army, was twiee sent to Cungress, and was thrice elected Governor of Ohio — beating Bill Allen for the @ffice last full. ‘Ta the army he was a serviceable officer; if Con- grees, he was one of the obsctirest of its wetbers; and in the Goveruor’s office he has performed such routine duties as were required of biariu a way that éxcited no particalar commeént. His name to Con- gress or elsewhere has been identitied with no policy, or “measure oF action: of any kiud. that have been brought into play; be has ne strong peints of character; ‘he has been but a lueky man iv polities, When Ex- Gov. Noyes nominated him in the Con- vention on Thureday, he mentioned as ove of his most distinguished qualitiea- tions that he was a man agvivst whom uothing could be said. “I'hese points of Hayes's character, and these features of his career, are inicresting enough; but they do not prove Lin to bea fit man for President in times when recommendations uf a stronger aud wore positive kind are required. Above all, Hayes ia no reformer. He is uot the man to clean vut politieal cor- ruption, to destroy the desperate Rings which have got hold of the country, or to do anything to obliterate the abomination of Grantiam. He is a man whe, in the Presidency, would run the machine in as easy and unoljectionable a way as he could; but he would rnu it in the old ruts; and this is about the worst thing that could be said of any man who desires to become the successor of Grant. lu regard to the financial question, he will be suifed exacily to the thin plank of the Cincinnatti platform. Iu regard tothe auti'Catholic question, the plank on that subject will be satisfactory to him. Dur- ing hie last cawpaign for Governor, he was sustainved by the anti-Catholic @enti- went of Ohio, which, perhaps, had more to do than anything else with his election. The whole platform will suit him as it was the work of the machine, and as be bhim- sclf is the candidate of the machine. The Ciucinnatti Convention had among its nomivees strong men like Morton and Conkling, who stood for the power, poli- ey, and history of the Republican party; ) ithad a practical reformer in Bristow, who possesses the capacity for valuable work; it had in Washburne one of the earliest champions and old-time leaders of the Republican party; it had in Blaine a notorious jobber aud tiicketer; bat it selected a man unknown to gtatesuanship, unknown to reform, and aukuown in par« ty traditions; it took him as the ouly hope of averting the triumph of the great cor ruptionist, wih whom the party would have been whirled to the ruin which awaiteit in any event, Sennen oe Ae 1 RD An iutelligent foreigner, passing | through the streets of Philadelphia, took out his note-book atthe end of a long walk and made a litthé memorandam to the effect that “eighty-nine per centum of the population of Philadelphia are members of the powerful family of Roow- vf bis, cvar-) gevius aod his de- to Waal Sane Brie He has no mareed powers usually feiches things. 0° big, iccgreanepetinrerith “Tis With bidneas tito” recor ‘death, on poste at at ihr quuricts past six odbc, of Mire ai ee el, ird District, hich operre ; excellent ‘and accompli the whole’ éomminity’eyin -invalid, suffering from that iuisidious ', de- slroyer, consumption, —— Mrs. Wadde Oharch, of whicli she’ was'a wember.— Wil.

The spider wears a plain brown dress, And she is a steady spinner; To see her, quiet as a munse, Going about her silver house, You would never, never gueas The way she geta her dinner. She looks as if no thought of ill In all her life had stirred her, But while she moves with careful tread And while she spins her silken thread, She is planning, planning, planning still The way to do some murder. My child, who reads this simple lay With eyes downcast and tender, Remember the old proverb says That pretty is which pretty dues, And that worth does not go nor stay For povérty nor splendor. ’Tis not the honse, and not the dress, That makes the saint or sinner. To see the spider sit and spin, Shat with her web of silver in, You would never, never guess ‘The way she gets her dinner. —_-_ a ———— CONTENT. My heart and [I but lately were at strife, She fell a-longing for a certain thing, The which 1 contd not give her. and my life Grew sick and weary with her clamoring. God knows I would have given my youth's wide scope, - To buy my heart but one brief, blessed day Of the blind bliss she coveted; bat hope, When [ appealed to it, turned dumb away. Until hope failed, [ did not chide my heart, But was full tender to her misery, I knew how hard and bitter was her part; But when I saw that good was pot for me, I felt that time and tears were vainly spent, “Heart,” said I, “hope is silent; be content.” Poor heart! She liatened earnest, humble-wise, While my good angel gave her counsel strong, Then from the dust and ashes did arise, And through her trembling lips brake forth a song, A soothing song that grew into » straid Of praise for bliss denied a» well as given. She sang it then to charm a lingering pain, She sings it now for gladness, morn and even’, She sings it, seeing on life’s garden wall Love's deep red roses in the sunshine atir, And singing, passes, envying not at all, Content to feel that love is not for her, The roses are another's bloom and ascent, My heart and [ have heart ease—and content. —All The Year Rouad.. — ar - WANTED A FARM. A Detroit real estate agent was waited on esterday by a tall man with a weed on bis at, who said he had the cash to pay for a farm, provided he could «get one to suit. The agent smiled him to a seat, and brought out his register of descriptions, Hé had several farms’ registered on his books, and had no doubt that he could suit the would- be purchaser, The stranger remarked : “What I want is a farm of about three hundred acres.” “I've got it,” replied the dealer. “['d like about six big hills on it.” “Here she is—here's a farm with exactly six hills on it.” “And I'd like a lake near the center.” “Here you are. Here's a farm with a lake exactly in the center.” “And I want a big natural cavern in one of the hills.” “Here you are. There's a cave in this farm that can’t be beat.” The stranger drew a long breath, and then went on: but one hundred acres must be marsh land.” “Here she is,” was the ready reply. “Just three hundred acres in the farm, and just one hundred in marsh land.” “I must have a waterfall twonty-six feet high on the farm,” continued the stranger. “Here you are. This farm has a natural waterfali of twenty-five feet and eleven nehes. I don’t suppose an inch, more or ess, on a waterfall amounts to much.” “Well no, but I want a windmill, op of the hilts.” . “That was put Op last year,” was the calm reply. ; It was some time before the stranger thought of anything else, but finally said : “There must be a Baptist charch right across the road from the house.” “One built last summer sir.” “Tt must be a brick charch.” “So it is.” “Has it an organ ?” “It has,” “Then I can’t buy the farm of you," said the stranger, rising to go. “If, there is any- thing I hate, it is a church organ, and you can seé for yourself that I woull'De if « state of continual misery.

She foand it rather slow traveling after her slow guide. So she would stop now and«then to danze on a flowet, or to rest on the down of an early thistle, Sean she met a party of gay friends, and join- ed them in a dance and a frolic, saying : “There's no danger [can eaeily over- take that slow fellow. He only crawls.” fut alads she lingeced too loug thie time | When she flew back to the place where ahe bad left him he was gone, and she had no guide but the ugly tracks he had left behind. As she went 01 she met anather friend, and they had a wahz on a spire of golden rod, till she was weary. She sat down on a bright green leaf to rest ber wings, and when she rose ap what should she eee but the tartls on his way back ! “Why, did you gol” she asked. “T bave been and seen the soldiers and flag, and have eaten all the worms and tadpoles I can hold, and am harrying back, as my mother bade me. Follow my tracks, and you will see the show yet, if you hurry ;" and the turtle was craw!- ing on. “Do you eall that gait ‘haurrving 1" and the butterfly laughed as loadly as ever a buiterfly did “I'll show you what hurrying is !’" and off she flew. Alas! the sun was down and so was the flag, when the tiny idler reached the luce. The night was falling, and the dew chilled ber golden wings, and she turned homeward withont A.uing among the stars or eveu lighting on a soidicr’s plume. When near home, faint and chilled, she met the turtle crawling along. She would gladly have passed him unnoticed ; bat he was Victor’now, and he ventured to re- buke the litle boaster, Withoat stop- ping for a moment, he rolled rouad his ugly eye and said: “Lt is my mother has always told me; the dilligent and taithful outdo the idle ; and the dull and slow, if persevering and obedicut, will al ways excel the brilliant and trifling, who boast of their beauty and their power. I am black and slow; you are yellow ani swift; but who saw the flag and soldier's to-day 1” —_-—-—- SOILING STOCK. There is a sul-ject that will engage the especial attention of farmers and breeders for some years tocome. [ do not say that the system will be generally adopt- ed » But I believe Uhat as it becomes bet- ter known, it will meet with more favor, and be found to exactly suit the eireum- stances and wants of a large claes of the tarmers and breeders of this country.” By “green soiling,” or “soiling,” | mean the practice of keeping animals in pens or barns, feeding them ov green food, grown and cut for the purpose, instead of allo v- ing them to ran in the pastures. The advantages of this plan are being freely dimeussed among the must enterprising, practical farmers and breeders, as well as by leading agricaltaral writers. I have before me a valuable little work bv Josiah Quincey, Jr., of Massachusetts, who, with his farher, may be considered the pioneers of this practice in New England. I will make a few extracts from it. Mr. Quincy save: “My farm being compact, the annoy- ance of having fifteen or tweety bead of cattle driven night and morning to and from the pasture ; the lors of tie in often turning the team and plough, owing to the number of interior fenees and the loss of surface of good land capable of being plowed ; owing to them and the many head lands, all drew my attention to the subject of ‘soiling’ and us effecte. All thie Buropead writers maintained (hat 6x distinct advantages were to be obtained by the practice of ‘soiling’ over that of pasturing eattle in the summer season : “Tot. Lt saved land. “od, Tt saved fences. “3d. It eeonomized food. “4th. It kept catile io bei. v. condition and greater comfort. “Sib. It produced more milk. €th. It increased the qaality aud qaan~ tity of manure, ‘Satiafied in my own mind of the beue. ficial effects of the practice, | adopted it, keeping some fifieen or twenty head of milch cows; with some other stock, and with entirely satisfactory success, Since then I have kept from thirty-five to fifty cows in this way, so that, in my mind, my experience is conclusive on the sub- ject.” * _ He ul athatone acre “soiled” from ace at leastas much as four acres tured in the asual way and that “there | orm ace my motets ep es ; t spear . be sege rete a Be 3 Lipa a whet |” Some will ask whether “Boiling” ia con~ sistent as the healt’ 6f the animal? ‘‘No confinement prejadical to the animal's bealth is poaiantyd we Wee _ani- mals that have been “oiled” from six to thirteen years. One cow, \now rixteen years old, tad thus been fed for thirteen summers, ad has! always beer ‘heal. thy. We havewaised colts in this way, and thought them more tlirifty aud quite as healthy as those raised on pasture. We regard it as promotive of health, as the animal bas more equal diet—not subjected to such fluctuations of abundance aud searcity, as in pasture, It requires less food, because the animal gets all it wants withoat foraging sixteeu hours a day over short pastares.” 1 feel confident, if more of our Virgin- ia farmers would adopt this mode of *‘svil- ing’’ (if only fora short time), they would never go buck’ to pastaring their lands again. Owing to the scarcity of timber in wany portions of Virginia, we will ulti- wately have to ret or to some mode of enclosures other than the old fence sys- tem. And the sooner we make this change the soner prosperity and thrift will reign triamphant.—F. W. Chiles, in Southern Planter and Farmer. Louisa County, Va. —_>- DECLINE OF POPERY IN EUROPE. Dr. Herbert Vanghan, the Romish Bishop of Salford, has lately retarned from a visit to the “prisoner of Vatican,” and thoagh he brings choertul news as to the health of the Holy Father, he dias been telling the “faithful” in Lancashire, that things ou the Continent, and espe- cially in Italy, look very gloomy indeed. Iv assures them that a Liberal conspiracy has been entered into throughout the Con- tinent, the effeets of which are painful to comtemplate, and still more painful to feel tle suggests that in Lialy the new ruling power is going at such a terrible pice that we may expeet soon to see it abolishing the Deealegue. From these dolefal words of Dr. Vaughan, it is safe to conclude that the wholseome current of |. progress, detested by such men as he, wnat have set in very strongly ; and this infereuce is certainly sustained by the political incidents in Italy, France, and Spain, whieh are reported simaltaneonsly with the lngulricas speech of the ex-edi- wr of the Tablet. In the first named of the countries, Iualv, the political unity of whieh cannot be said to be tually consolidated so long as ils institutions repose on the basis of the present restricted suffrage, a Royal Cowwiseion has been appointed w draw up ascbewe for the extension of the franchise, and all who kuow the antece~ dents of the leading members of the now lralian Cabinet are expecting to seo a decided step in advance taken, thaugh of course, the great mass of people—thanks to the protracted rale of the priests in the past — ure by far too ignorant to permit of their being euddeuly added to the elec. toraltle. In Feanee, where the efforts that are being made by the Republican majority to effect the divorce of the Church from the State proveked the holding of a great Ultramontane Conference, the most of whose proceelings were conductel in se- cret session, we see the Government issa- ing an order with respect to the circulation | of newspapers, which has almost a frank English teeling about ir, and which is ove ot many heralds proclaiming that for our neighbors on the other side of “the silver streak” better days are at band. At Madrid the disenssion in the Cortes during the past week have been mainly on the réligious question, and the tone of the debates has been exceedingly hope- ful. It is true that Senor Ortiz did not suceecd in carrying au amendment which sought to reintreduee the wore liberal article on she religipas tolerance contained in’ the constitution of 1869, thoagh even for that sturdy band of thirty-three senators yoted in the divisian; but on the other baud, the Ultramontane factions were powerless against the over- wheming aajority whiclt declared iu fa vor of continuing to the Protestants the measure of tolerance which they at pres- entenjoy. Peahaps the most rignificant incident in the debate was that which ocecrred at the close of the great speech of Senor Ortiz, when he demanded to know of the Ultramontane members whether their party would close all the Protestants places of worship at present existing in Spain, and expel all Protes- tants from the country. To this question Senor Ferdinaud Alvarez replied, with bru‘al frankness, that they would; but we percieve one token of the great cha which has come over the spirit of | land of the Inquisition when we note words that are added by the Parliamen» tary reporter. “The auswer of the leader of the priest party, we are told, “caused a great sensation.” Tt evidently shocked the majority in the assembly, pretty much in the same way as it bave shocked an English audience.

An Effort to Secure the Immense Chad: wick Estate—A Long Chancery Suit. In the reign of Queen Anne of Eng» land, Andrew Chadwick was taken out of the rauks of common soldiers and made a knight, vecause be had saved ber Majes- ty's lile. Ter horses had ran away with ber. aod he had stopped them, suffering severe injury by the exploit. Soon after his social elevation he married Margaret Humphreys, a kent county lady, and throughout the rest of his life accumulated property rapidly. He died in 1768, at the age of uinctyseight years and was buried in Marylebone chureh yard. He ewned about a thousand houses in Lon- don, and had investments in various pro- jecta. He appointed Alexander Scott and two others execotors, but they neg- lected to sign the will, and the docament was declared void, Scott attempted, not- withetanding, to get control of the prop- erty, aud the record of the Courtof Chaa- cery shows that a lawsuit upon that point was decided against bim in 1769, , ‘The Chancellor decided, ‘Ihe court, is stil} open tor the heir at law to prosecute the claim to the property!" Lady Obadwick died in 1784, aud the estate was left in such confusion that, in 1784, two men condvived the project of forging a will to get possesion of it. They were hanged at-Newgate. The property has uever been aeitied, although there is au undecided chancery suit 104 years long, and £10 OUU in Government bonds, with the ac- crucd interest, and a chest of plate, are still iu the Bank of England awaiting au owner wha can make good his claim. —___—_-+ ~gao——- CURIOUS PROVISION FORA FUNERAL. The funeral of Dadley Burwell took place at Little Falls last Ftiday. Mr. Burwell was a very eccentric man, and lad written letters, to be opened after his death, describing minutely how he desired to be buried. Le wished that no sexton, no undertaker, and no hearse should be em- ployed at his funeral, A man named Erastus Smiib’was to make bis coffia of butternut or black walnut, and for this purpose be tad the material in his house seasoning for two or three years. A cop- per plate properly inscribed was to be pat on the cofin. The ecfiin wasto be deposited in a rough box lined with sheet Tead and sealed up. On the hillside above his res idence he had prepared for himeelf a sep~ ulehre cut in the solid rock, with a stoue fitted into the opening that was to be sealed up with cement, His funeral sur- vices were to cousist of ouly a prayer at the honse. His own horges awere to con- vey him to his tomb, aud he bad picked out eight men, some of the moat prominent of the villiage, for tiepall-bearers. The faneral-was to take place immediasl y.after break(gst. In all these respects his wishes, were complied wich as far as possible. — Syracuse (N. Y.)

This induced the chickens to scrateb and search.\\ The meal was sirewn every morning from the time the trees blossomed until the frni: was large enough to be ont of danger. The consequence was that the fowls piek- ed up the curcalidé ‘with the meal, and the tree being saved from the presence of the insects was wonderfally fruitful. —-~es>e— —-— The Massachusetts delegation to St. Louis is unanimous for ‘Tilden. “The delegates held a meeting in Boston, of which thé Post says: ‘There was shown a bearty and unanimous sentiment in favor of the nomination of ‘Tilden, and an equally strong purpose of acting strictly for the best interests of the party and the nation in the performance of their daties at the Convention.

Wuereas, The republican party of the Unsted States, for the last sixteen years, has hud the complete control of the government in all its departments, and by its disregard of Constitutional limi- tations; by its anequal and oppressive taxation; by-its extravagant and waste- ful expendityres ; by its unwise and mis- chievons financial policy ; by its unexam- ples pfficial corruption pervading all ranches” of its administration—has brought disgrace upon ovr government and anparalleled distress ypon our peuple; therefore Resolved, 1, That in this centennial year ofour existence, weinvite all patriots to ignore all dead issues, to disregard the prejudices engendered by the past events, ang to unite with ys in the effort to restore & gonetitutional, honest, economical and pure administration of the government, and thus promote the general welfare and happiness of the country. diesolved, 2. That we earnestly and cor. dially recommend the adoption, by the people, of the amendments to the Consti- tation proposed by the Conventioa of 1875, and thas largely reduce the expenditures of our State and county governments and simplify their administration, so that we may be enabled to establish a thorough aud enlarged system of public schools for the benefit of all the citizens.ef the State. Resglved, 3..That notwithstanding our repeated disappointments and impovished condition, we still cherish the North Var. olina project 80 long labored for by More- head, Saunders, Fisher, Wm. H. homas, and others, uniting the harbors of Beau- fort and Wilmington with the great west; and for the completion of the Western North Garolina’Railroad to Paint Reek and Diektown, and of our nufinished rail- roads, wé pledge the continued use of the convict labor of the State, ang of such other Ere. legisjative aid as will se- eure the completion of these great State works at the earliest practicable period, . Hesolved 4. That the people of North Garolina now have jt jn their power by an earnest, determinated and gnited effort, ta relieve pur people from the evils of re- ee eftravagance and cor mate and restore the prosperity of our e. Resolved 5..That we denounce official conuption wherever found, and we hold honesty to be the first and highest quali- fication for office. a “The telegrams of the 26th were busy with the calenlations and speculations at ~ St. Louis.

We take this oeeasion to declare our preference for Mr. Waggoner. Every vot- er is entitled to declare his preference. Our choice is based on the fact that Mr. W. has been a faithful officer, —has performed his official duties with carefal and intelligent fidelity. He is just the kind of officer the people should desire to perform their work. We are not fond of changes in such cases. When an officer ie doing his whole daty it does seem wise to hold on to him. The public good would dictate that policy as the best. The offices were not created for the purpose of mere experiment, nor asa means of rewarding partizans. They are business positions which should be fill- ed with reference to the duties required, and we have not only heard no complaint aguint the incumbent, but those most cog- nizant of his performance speak of him with commendation. But our preference is subject to the ruling of the Convention. It the Con- vention puts aside Mr. W. and selects one whow they suppose will make a better officer Mr. W. will retire and we of course will accept the Convention’s nominee. We all propose to do that, because it is the law of Conventions. ~—>—_—____ THE MANDAMUS ‘SUIT. FIVE DAYS TO VACATE. How Nowt SCOUNDRELS AND THIEVES THE DAY. Justice and Law Throttled.

The amend ments require not only that the call of the Convention shall have the con- corrence of two-thirds of the “members of the Legislature, but that, in addition, it shall first feceive the concurrence of a majority of the people at the polis. So that if the amendments shall be ratified, before any Constitutional Convention could meet, the call for it wou!d liave first to be sanctioned by two-thirds of all the members of the two Houses of the Gen- eral Assembly and afterwards be ‘sanct- ioned by the vote of a majority. of the people. I ig easy to say that ander such a law no Convention would ever be held in North Carolina; and this being so, all men who have honest fears about trusting Conveutione with power, ought to see plainly that it is time for them to speak outin favor of the ratification of the amendments. Indeed the very reasons that induced good citizens, and there were many of them who did a0, to oppose the call of the Conatitational Convention last year naturally compel them to fayor now the ratification of the amevdmeats ; in a word the amendments meet squarely the demand of the anti-copvention men of last year, by making it a part of the Con- stitution that no convention shall under any circumstances be called without first obtaining the consent of the people at the ballot-box upon the direct question of convention or no convention, According ly, we find that Jadge Fowle, who was one of the bitterest opposers of the con- vention movement is most warmly advo- cating the ratification of the ameudmente proposed by that convention. Bat that is not the only change in the thirteenth article that is proposed by the amendments. ‘The mode of changing the Constitution by Legislative euact- ment is also very materially changed and very greatly fur the better, inasmuch as it ia made very mach simpler and p'aces the entire control in the hands of the pev ple—just where it ought to be. To make any change by Legislative enactment in-the Constitution as it now stands, one Legislature must, by the vote of three-fifths of all the membera, pass a bill containing the proposed amendments Itmustthen be published tothe people six stitution as it uow stands, the Legislatare r i Se > ru 4a Faeeesprvele stories is creating a terrible excite to death aud her body } and her untimely fate is att terrible ghosuy. apparition that frightened her horse on a ic. road, on their way to this quiet vil Miss Leining cititen of this. place, She invited a friend to accompany her to a country fair about five wiles from this village, . ‘The lady who weut with her was Miss Ada Hoff man, also from this village. ‘Their con- veyance, cousiating of one of the family horses and an open plieton, was gat ready, aud a yonng brother of Miss Hoff- wan went with them to drive. ‘The jour- ney to the fair in the twilight. was. de- lightful, as the drive was. among some of the finest scenery in the State. They arrived at the small village of Schaeffers~ town at 7 o'glack, and enjoyed a very pleasant evening with sheir acquaintances at the festival, The two young ladics were reengniaed, as the representative belles of that section, being courted and flattered for their many qualities and ac. compliehments, The weather was warm and they were dressed in white eambric robes. Little did they think when they left home that b-fore they returned one of those robes would be « shroud of blood aud one of their bodies a lifeless, horribly mangled corpse. It was after 11 o'clock before the young ladies told their attendant they desired to leave. ‘The night had grown very dark, und ag the road was as dangerous at mid~ ibuted to friends of the young ladies importaned and begged them to remain an:il mornin This they refused, stating that they des sired to go home that night, and they were not bfraid to travel over the road, as they had frequently done so before.— ‘They left their triends and proceeded on their joarney homeward. ‘Tbry — had. goue about a mile aloug a small stream known as Mill Creek, when the young driver says that he saw a strange, un- earthly looking ubject in white ahead of him on the road. He knew that he waa near a ravine kaown for a long number of years as Ghort Ilullow. All of a sud- dev the white object came wearer and frightened the horse. ‘I'he boy driver is about fourteen years of age, and he in- sists that the fearful thing jumped apon the hogse’s back, which set the animal to running ata frightful pace. Over the road the horse pluaged in the black night, and the young ladies screamed with fright. Within three-quarters of a mile of this village they reached a small bridge epanning Mill Creck. ‘he horse dasved madly to one side and strack a stone heap, partly demolishing the car- | riage. ‘The animal was intensely fright | eved and began to rear and plange. ‘The months before the election of members for the next Legislature, ‘he new Lg. | islature mast then pags the bill by a two- | thirds vote of all the members, and after! all this, the bill must then be submitted to the people ter ratification. This is a long tedious process and was made so | designedly. If, however, the amendments shall be ratified the difficulty will no longer exiet. The following is the amendment pro- posed to this part of the Constitution : Sec. 2. Ne part of the Constitution of this State shall be altered unless a bill to alter the same shall have been agreed to by three-fifths of each House of the Gen eral Assembly. And the amendment or amend ments so agreed :oshall be submiited at the next general election to the qualified voters of the whole State, in such manner as may be prescribed by law. And in the event of their adoption by a majmity of the votes east, such amendment or amendments shall become a part of the | Conatitation of this State. Every man can see for himself the plain «ffeet of the changes in this article of the Constitution prop sed to be made by the amendments new pending. It cau be summed up in a single word almost, that is to say, they restore full power to the people. With the consent of the peo ple everything can be done, and without their consent nothing ean be done. The ratification of the amendments will be substantially a new declaration of inde- pendence on the part of the people of North Carolina, no less important and no less sweeping than that made in Mecklenburg in 1775 and that made in Philadelphia in 1776, If the convention had done nothing but propose these amendments to this article, the great work of liberating the people from the slavery of the Canby Constitu- tion would bave been accomplished, fur if these amendments shall be ratified, the people can in less than twelve months redress any grievance growing out of the Constitution, can cure all constitational ille that may affect them. Bat nothing, not a word nora letter, ean be changed without their consent and co-operation. Ie there any danger in this? Js there any danger in confiding to the people of North Carolina the power to make and to unmake their own government? We think not. Nor can we ever think there is any danger in it, 80 long as we earn- eatly and honestly believe in the right of the-people to fashion and shape their own governments to suit themselves.

Baw ¥ Dear Sir: am in receipt of your two letters of date in which yeu disclaim any intention of be- mally offensive to me In your comments on the Julfan letter, but still claim that you were justi- fiable af your pointed allusion to me. I t your disclaimer of personal !nsult and pro- pose to uss freeéfrom p on or personal hostility the last position assumed by you. I am willing to concede many ns to the press In dealing with men, but I lay it dowmas a fixed rule that you ve no right to assail a private citizen until you are first assailed, or that a private citizen shall be guilty of such gross improprieties that you @ a guardian of the people may feel It your duty to expose him ; and that when you do it without such cause you transcend your privileges asafi editor, and treat with injustice him whom you assail. This rule you cannot controvert: in your letters re- ceived you virtually acknowledge it by attempting not to show that I had assailed you or given you any personal grounds for assatling me, but that I had written some articles that had been published in your paper that were secret strikes at others. Now, sir, as you have taken suoterfuge under these articles I to notice them, and I hereby boldly assert that there is nothing in either of them that can by any ity be construed as personally offensive to any one, or that anything ts asserted aya fact in either of em that 1s not litterally true. I farther assert that in ncither of them is any body alluded to in a disparaging way or Any odious or contempti- ble comparisons made of them. The@first article was signed hopeful, and was a satiracal comment on the ‘Town election, iad the appointment of a Republican policeman. ‘hat article contained nothing person- ally offensive, and was not levelled against any one with such Pt it might have been, and would i there were others I will here take occasion to say were not, and among that number is your model sheriff, a man nomi, two years ago in a cogser- oo convention, elected as a conservative, to liceman, over hard working conservative me- chanics with to support.
