Sr. Louis, Jnne 27.—The Hall of the Chamber of Commerce is handsomely decorated. Delegates assembled promptly at the stated time. It was called to or- der at 12:20 by Angustns Schell. In ealling the Convention to order he sub- mitted a few brief remarks upon the par- poses of this Convention: to nominate candidates whose election ehall change the government and overthrow corraption, and prodace an administration of reform demanded by the people. [Applauee. | He said the corruption now existing in the government must be baried. This duty wast be confided to the bands, not of those who now hold the government, but to the Democratic party. The thing to be reformed can’t be reformed by it- self. The people are intelligent and sagacions. ‘l'hey understand their rights and will not again trust their interests to the Republican party. He referred to the Democratic party as the hard money party from the beginning. He said it was a trick to try to saddle on it the ex. isting policy inconsistent with bard money principles. All the aets authorizing pa- per money as legal tender and the opivion of the Supreme Conrt sustaining it all, were done during repablican administra~ tion. Hethen referred briefly to the civil results. ‘The remedy is not rapid contraction or increased currency, but the one remedy at this time is repeal of the resumption act. Dothat and give the Democratic party the reins of government and their policy of the one money, and sound finance will bring specie payment speedily. [Applause.| This centennial of the National independence we have met to adopt means to restore the country to prosperity, may we not hope after sixteen years of republicanism that the Democratic party may resume supremacy in the Government. The rales that will govern the Convention will insure good nominations. He exhorted the Conven- tion to use wisdom in making the plat~ form. At the conclusion of hie remarks he nominated Henry Watterson, of Ken- tucky, as temporary Chairman. [{Ap- plause.}| hit was unanimously agreed to. Senators Barnum, of Connecticut and Ransom, of North Carolina, were ap- pointed a committee for the parpose of conducting Watterson to the chair. Wat- terson, upon beiog presented, was re- ceived with applause. He said : WATTEKSON’S 8PEECH. Gentlemen of the Convention :—We are called together to determine by our wisdom whether honest government, ad- ministered by honest men, shall be re. stored to the American people, or to de- cide by our folly that it is the destiny of this country to pursue gn eudless and ever revolving circle of partisan passion and corruption, antil with the loss of our material well being we lose the poor man’s last bope—civil liherty itself.— Every citizen of the Republic, be he of one party or the other, feels, and has felt for many a day, the depressing influence of what are called hard times. We look about us and we sce neglected fields and vacant houses, the faetories closed and furnace doors shat. T’bere are myriads of idle hands. ‘he happy activity of prosperous life is towbere to be found. Loyaliats fatten while honest men starve. Empty "is the mart and shipless the bay. What is it that has wrought so great a change in a land that, under the rule of an intelligent, progressive, Constitutional arty, advanced within half a century heer the condition of a huddle of petty and squalid provincial sovereigntics to a foremost place among the nations of the earth. The reason of men must answer partisan misrule and seetional misdirec- tion. The Republicans, my friends are not alone responsible; with them rest the disgraces, with us the follies. These twin agents of national misehanee, work~ ing under the miserable rule of coutrarics,. have kept the people of the North and | Seuth aside and have supplied sustenance to, corruption. ‘They have distarbed values ; they have unsettled prices; they have made our whole fioancial a exile an@ -haye organiged er as to believe itself entitled to rule by | tion the shere force of its own wrong. So mach let us set down tothe con- venient pretext of war. So much to the long account of damages between the North and South. ‘ It is for you to say whether the same conflict with the consequences maltiplicd and magoified, shall by any acts of yours be inaugurated between. the East and Weat. T shall not undertake on a occasion of this kind, and in a presence so impusing, to enforce the familiar lesson of matual forbearance. Nobody doubts our capac- ity to make battle among ourselves.— Entreating you to direct your energies to the common enemy, I ask indulgence only on my behalf. You lave called me to a place not merely of distinction bat of difficulty. Toa place which requires the best training of a better man that I am. In taking it I wust to your confi- denee and geod nature and heart incapa- ble of an unmanly or unfair act. The work before us should relate to ideas ratber than to individuals. It is theissue not the man that should engage us, We have come here to make the people's, not our fight for free no less than honest gov- ernment, for the reform of the public ver- vice and the regeueration of pablic = mor- als, for the administration of relief from the administration of nihilism, embraced in the simple creed of hume rule, to re« duce taxes and give a living chance for the South as well as the North, for both the East and West. If anything comes of our proceeding it must spring from the epirit of association and fg@lowship.— Wheo warned, the followers of Audrew Jackson and Silas Wright, of Henry Clay and Daniel Webster, feet together on common ground, at last to wreat the got-~ ernwent of their affuirs from the clatches of rings, robbers, Federal, State and Mu- nicipal, and who mean to extirpate these wherever they are found, and whether they be republican or democratic. The points of his speech were empha- sized by frequent applause. A: the con. clasion he introduced Bishop Marvin, who offered prayer. The Chair announced as temporary secretary, Frederiek O. Price, of Maesa-~ chasetts, and T. O. Walker, of Iowa, and | 8. K. Donovan, of Obio, assistant secre | taries. He also announced Dan Able, of | Missouri, as sergeant-at- arms. Abbott, of Massachusess, moved a reso- lution adopting the rules of the last Na- tional Convention until otherwise or- dered. Littlejohn, of New York, inquired if this iucladed the two-thirds rule. [ Voices, “yes, yes.”"| If so, all right. [Applause.] The Chair answered, “It does.” | The resolution was adopted. Smalley, of Vermont, moved a resola- tion to call the States in order for the presentation of eredentials. Adopted. Wallace, of Penosylvania, in order to have a Democratis precedence observed, | moved to reconsider the resolution just adopted. He urged that States should | name their members of committees ou | credentials and permauent organization before any other business should be done. He hoped there would be no innovation on past precedents. Weed, of New York, insisted that the resolution adopted is in accordance with precedents. Under it credentials are re- ceived only for reference to the credea- tial committee. Wallace read from the official proceed- ings of the Convention of 1868, to show that the first business was to name the committees. Doolittle, of Wisconsin, suggested that there be appointed a temporary secretary. He suggested that E. A. Perrin be ap- pointed. | The Chairman decided this out of or der. The motion to reconsider was rejected, and the secretary proceeded and called tbe roll of the States for credentials. Pomeroy, of Lllioois, moyed that Perry be appoiated temporary secre- tary. Fineb, of Iowa, objected. Perrin did not ioherit this appointment if he had had it before, and the appoiutment should be left to the committee on organiza: | tion. The Chair finally decided the motion out of order, A Minnesota delegation moved a reso~ lation to call the roll of States for Com- | mittees on Permanent Organization aod Credentials. Adopted. The roll was called and the committees named. ° Carroll, of Tennessee, moved that when the Convention adjourned it be to 5 p. m., and the committee just named shall then report. Adopted. Smith, of Illinois, moved a resolution that a committee of one from euch State be appointed on resolutions, and al! reso- lations relating to the plaiform be re- ferred to said committee without debate. Adopted. Weed, of N. Y., moved tbat the chair- man of each delegation send to the Chair the naures of its members to the Platform Committee. No objection, so ordered. The Chairman said the delegates from the National Women’s Suffrage Associa~ tion were present, asking a helfing, [cries of hear them.} No objection being made the Chair announced that they would be heard. Weed of New York and Swmally of Vermont were appointed a committee to escort the ladies to the platform.

The committee escorted Gen. McCler- nand to the chair who addressed the Con- vention extemporaneously, arraigning the Repoblican party for maladministration, which be claimed called for a change. Mr. Belmont, of New York, read a series of resolutions arraigning the Repab- lican party and appealing to the Aqmeri- can people to forget the civil war, after 11 years of peace, and put an end to sec- tional strife. He accompanied them with some earnest remarks. The resolutions were referred. Adjourned antil 11 to-morrow. After the adjournment, Dan Voorhees, of Indiana, was vociferously called upon and attered gn eloquent speech on tlie issue of the campaign. REFORM. WTEC HVOR Ww Nominated on 2nd Ballot. FOR VICE-PRESIDENT. AN ADMIRABLE PLATFORM. Trouble Over the Finanelal Plank of the Platform—A Large Crowd Present— Introduction of Resolutions—No Bal- loting Until the Platform is Adopted— Majority and Minority Platforms Pre- sented—Doolittle Speaking. Sr. Lours, June 28.—The Committee on Platform sat until 1 o'clock this morning and then adjourned without coming to any conclusion. There are serious differences relating entirely to the financial plank. While nothing is officially known, current rumors, well defined, are that a majority favor a plank fabricated by Mr. Dorsheimer, of New York, which is earnestly opposed by tho Western members, especially Mr. Ewing, of Ohio. Every seat and standing room is filled. President McClernard called the Convention to order at 5 minutes after 11 o'clock, intro- ducing Father Brady, of St. Louis, who offered a prayer. Young, of Georgia, offered a resolution that the Convention endorses the reform inaugurated by their Representatives in cutting down appropriations; approves their inydstigations of fraud, and congratulating the country on bringing public criminals to justice. The Chair decided that the -reso- lution must go to the Committee on Plat- form. Cox, of New York, offered a resolution that the will of the people for retrenchment, | a8 expressed in the appropriation bills, is and ought to be sustained. Referred to the platform committee. Vilas, of Wisconsin, offered a resolution confining delegates’ speeches to five minutes; | that ten minutes be allowed tor the presen- tation of each candidate nominated. Cox, o& New York, presented a memorial of the working men’s central union, express- ing their views, and asked that it be made a part of the proceedings of the Convention. Eaton, of Kansas, moved that it be omitted from the proceedings and referred to the platform committee. Adopted. Kelly, of New York, presented to the Convention, a list of the names of prominent men of New York, who are opposed to the nomination of Gov. Tilden. The Chair ruled them out of order. Recess was taken till 2 P.AL, to hear the report of the Committee on resolutions. Kelly, of New York, requested some New York delegatcs to present a paper signed by many eminent gentlemen who were op- posing the nomination of Gov. Tilden. {Applause and hisses.) Jacobs, of New York, made # point of that during the pending recess of the al) the delegates and visitors, in their seats. the This was out of order, i ided - vo eee i. a - b : * Pe erates: Fee ed: 3 e Chair 30} gar eadienteeh one pero oLy early as possible, and he lose no time in ; as that the Convention will not. He suggested the possibility of two reports from the committee. He hoped there would be harmony, but it must be harmony upon principles if success vention. the amendment by a substitute ordering the roll of States to be called for nomination, and fen proceed to ballot. Wallace moved that the entire subject tabled. € McLane accepted Abbott’s amendment. Loud cries of “No!” greeted a proposi- tion that the declaration of a State’s vote by the Chairman of any delegation, shall alone be accepted. Wallace asked what would be the condi- tion if a motion to table failed t Oliver replied that the Convention would then come to vote on the amendments. The Chair here announced that the com- mittee on resolutions was ready to report. A request for a call of the States was with- drawn without taking a vote. The Chair recognized Mr. Meredith, Chairman of the Committee on Platforms, who said they had agreed on resolutions, but had referred it to a Committee on revisions, and are to meet again at 1 o'clock. Mr. Kernan moved a recess until 2 P. M. Carried. Later.—Judge Meredith presented a majority and General Ewing a minority platform. [SPECIAL DISPATCH. |] Mr. Doolittle, of Wisconsin, is now ad- dressing the Convention, and is being lis- tened to with close attention. The Platform—It Arraigns the Republi- can Party for Corruption and Misrule, Denounces Its Policy at Home and Abroad, Declares for the Repeal of the Resumption Act, and Opposes Chinese Immigration—Tildexn Receives 581 Votes, lS Being Necessary. Sr. Lous, June 28.—The Convention was called to order at 2.15. Judge Mer- idith, of Virginia, chairman of the Commit- tee on Resolutions presented a report sta- ting that a great many resolutions were pre- sented, all of which had been carefully ex- amined, and discussed before coming to agreement. He then requested Mr. Dorsh- eimer, of New York, to read it to the Con- vention as follows : Tue PLatrorM.—We, the delegates of the Democratic party, of the United States, in the National Convention assembled, do here de- clare the administration of the Federal govern- ment to be in urgent need of immediate reform; do hereby enjoin upon the nominees of this Convention, and of the Democratic party, in each State, a zealous effort and co-operation to this end, and do hereby appeal to our fellow citizens, of every form and political connection, to undertake, with us, this first and most press- ing and patriotic duty. For the Democracy of the whole country, we do here re-affirm our faith in the permanency of the Federal Union ; our devotion to the Constitution of the United States with its amendments universally ac- cepted, as a final settlement of the controver- sies that engendered the civil war, and do here record our steadfast confidence, in the per- petuity of Republican self-government, in ab- solute acquiesence in the will of the majority, the vital principle of the republic; in the su- premacy of the civil over the military authori- ty; inthe total separation of Church and State, for the sake alike of civil ad@ religious freedom ; in the equality of all citizens before juat law, of their own enactment in the liberty of individual conduct, unvexed by sumptuary laws, in the faithful education of the rising generation, that they may preserve, enjoy, and transmit these glourious conditions, of human happiness, and hope. We uphold the noblest products of a hundred years, of changeful his- tory, but while upbolding the bond of our un- ion, and the great charter of these our rights, it behooves a free people to presérve, also eter- nal vigilance which is the price of liberty. Re- form is necessary to rebuild and establish in the hearts of the people, the Union eleven years ago \appily rescued from the dangef of corrupt centralism which after inflicting upon ten States, the rapacity of carpet-bag tyrannies, haw honey-combed the offices of the Federal government itself with incapacity, waste and fraud ; infected States and municipalities with the contagion of misrule, and locked fast the prosperity of an-industrious people, in the par- alysis of hard times. Reform is necessary to establish a sound currency, restore the public credit, and maintain the national honor. We denounce the failure for all these eleven years to make good the promise of the legal tender notes, which are a changing standard of value, in the hands of people, and the non-payment of which is a disregard of the plighted faith of the nation. We denounce the improvidence which in a eleven years of peace, has taken from the in ‘Federal taxes falfilting Wood, of Missouri, offered an amendment, is to be obtained by the unity of this Con- | Abbott, of Masachusetts, moved to amend | of co in all its national source the prosperity of the people. Reform is necessary in the sum and mode of Federal taxation, to the end that capi- tal may beset free from distrust, and labor lightly ‘ rd < 4 ‘We 4 the re 4 i : tariff levied upon imported articles as a master piece of injustice, iniquity and false pretence. It yields a dwindling, not a yearly rising reve- nue, it has impoverished many industries to subsidize a few, prohibits imports that might purchase the products of American labor; it has degraded commerce from the first to an in- ferior rank upon the high seas. It has cut down the sale of the American manufactures at home and abroad, and depleted the returns of American agriculture and industry followed by half of our people ; its costs the people 5 times more than it produces to the Treasury; it ob- structs the means of production and wastes the fruit of labor: it promotes fraud and fosters swindling; enriches dishonest officials, and bank- rupte honest merchants. We demand that all Custom Houses taxation, shall be only for rev- enue. Reform is now in the scale of public ex- penses Federal Staite and municipal. Our Federal taxation has swollen from 60 millions in gold in 1860 to 450 millions currency in 1870; our aggregate taxation from 184 mil- lions in gold in 1860, to 730 millions currency in 1870, or in one decade from less than five dollars per head to more than $18 per head. Since peace was proclaimed the people have *| paid to their tax gatherers more than thrice the sum of the National debt, and more than twice that sum for the Federal government alone. We demand frugality in every depart- ment and fromevery officer of the government. Reform is necessary to put a stop to the profli- gate waste of public lands; and their diversion from actual settlers, by the party in power, which has squandered two hundred millions of acres upon railroads alone, and out of more than thrice that aggregate, has disposed of Jess than a sixth, directly to tillers of the soils. Reform is necessary to correct the misrepreseu- tation of a Republican Congress, and the errors of our treaties of war diplomacy, which have kept our fellow-citizens of foreign birth, and kindred and race, re-cossing the Atlantic from the shield of Americanship, and Have exposed our brethren of the Pacific coast to the incur- sion of a race, not sprung from the same cur- rent stock, and in fact now by law deemed citi-| zens through naturalization, as being neither accustomed to the traditions of a progressive civilization, for exercise of liberty under equal laws. We denounce the policy which discards the liberty loving German and toleratés the revival of the Coolie trade, in Mongolian wo- men, exported for immoral purposes and Mon- golian men, hired to perform servile labor con- tracts, and demand such modification of the treaty with the Chinese Empire, or legislation by Congress within a constitutional limitation, as shall prevent the further importation, or im- migration of the Mongolian race. , Reform is necessary and can neyer be affect- ed but by setting the controlling issue of the elections, lifting it above the two false issues which the office-holding class and the party in power seek, together with the false issue with which they enkindle sectarian strife in respect to the public schools, of which the establixh- ment to support belonging exclusively to the several States, and which the Democratic party has cherished from their foundation and resolv- ed to maintain without partjality or preference for any class, sect or creed, and without con- tributing from the treasury to array the false issue by which they seek to light anew the dy- ing embers of sectional hate between kindred peoples, once unnatorally estranged, but now reunited in one indivisible republic and a com- mon destiny. Reform is necessary in the civil service. Experience proves that economical conduct of the government business is not: pos- sible if its civil service be subject to change ; at every election be a prize fought for at the ballot box, bea brief reward of ‘party service instead of posts of honor assigned for approved competency, and held for fidelity in the public employ ; that the dispensing of patronage should neither be a tax upon the time of all our pub- lic men nor the instrument of their ambition. We attest that the party in power can work out no practical, or salutary reform, Reform is necessary even more inthe higher grades of public service, Presidént, Vice-President, Judges, Senators, Representatives, Cabinet officers. These and all others in authority are the people’s servants, their offices are not a private perquisit. They are a public trust. When the annals of this republic show the dis- graceful censure of a Vice-President, a late Speaker of the House of Representatives, mark- eting his ralings as a presiding officer ; three Senators profiting secretly by their votes as a law maker ; five of the leading com- mittees of the late Ho attorney-general , —_ . ee se of Representatives | 1, exposed in jobbery; a late Secretary of the] | the financial plank.. The majority report was adopted, 651 to 83. : Sr. Louis, June, 28—7 P. M—Col. Will- jams nominated Hendricks; Whitely, of Delaware, nominated Bayard ; Leon Abbot, of New Jersey nominated Parker; Francis Kernan, of New York, nominated Tilden. First ballot: Allen 56, Tilden 4034; Parker 18, Hancock 75; Bayard 27, Hendricks183}. On the second ballot, Allen received 54 votes; Tilden 467 ; Parker 18; Hancock 71, Hendricks 108, Thurman 2. Iowa changed 20 for Tilden ; Illinois changed 24 for Til- den and 18 for Hendricks; Missouri chang- ed 20 for Tilden and 10 for. Hendricks. Total vote for Tilden, 581.

The vote for Vice President. yas: taken to-day. ‘We have no report further than the unanimous nomination of Mr. Henpricss, of Indiana. The Democratic Convention has proved'a grand success. It has a ticket which thi® people had c ths ago. For more than a year the honest people of the Country have had their eyes fixed on Tilden as the man to lead a war against the corruptionists which infest high offices of the Government; and for some time past they have associated with his name that of Mr. Hendricks for Vice President. The Convention has obéyed the will of the peo- ple this time, and have not attempted to force up some man unknown to them, In this they have done well. All prase the St. Louis Convention, and a hundred guns for TILDEN AND HENDRICKS. ° ~~ A WOMAN IN A RAT HUNT. Yesterday morning a Burlington lady who lives out on West Hill, says the Burlington Hawkeye, was moved by reading the “city lyric” on the oct to go down into the cellar and see how the moisture was. She did not go down, however, for the water was there before her, and had been there all nig ee bad driven the rats to higher gro the poor people in Happy Hollow. She had not more than opened the door when a great rat sprang between her ~ arene au pole ousrae tok eee’ he bling up to an kneasy restin; next instant the lady bad him in her nervous grasp, holding dress, skirt and rat with a desperate grip, despite wriggling and agers of the rodent.

It is cheap, and we doubt not will soon become a public favorite, They had a frightful storm of wind, rain and lightning on the last day of June at Wilmington, chiefly rain and electricity. Two clouds met over the city, and they clashed and poured out their fury for four hours. The streets were flooded with water, which rushed madly down the gutters, sweeping away goods boxes and the like. But the center of interest was in the Tele- graph Office, where the wire overcharged with atmospheric electricity, flashed with fire and frequent explosions, In the midst of all, the fire bells sounded an alarm, so that the good people, of Wilmington had cnough excitement in those four hours to last them a whole day. They are ready for something else now—a_ brisk trade or a hurrah for Tilden and Vance.

He had a very indifferent seating ard consequently bat lit- tle control over the horse, which was young, though generally saf’. He met a company of threshers with their horse-power, thresh- ing machine and cleaner; the latier standing tallapd bulky on the wagon, frightened Mr. Peeler’s young horse as it . passed, and made him startin aren. Some confusion ensued, so that the driver of the passing team had no chance to watch Mr. Peeler's horse. When he did look back be saw nothing but a cloud of dust—all were out of sight. Fearing some accident had happened they went down the road and soon found Mr. P., but the horse and wagon were gone. His leg above the knee was broken, and on exatnivation the bones.were found terribly shattered. Amputation was performed next moruing, but death clused the scene Thurs- day evening. turning with his grist, -_- Escape of Convicts Si Lively Time. Seven convicts made their escape last week from the works of W.N.O. R. R. On Sanday one of the number was dis- covered in the Reem's Creek section, he having stripped himself of his clothes and having on only hia nether garments. He was pursued by several parties, and only captured after having been shot in the leg, but before surrendering he inflicted a severe and painful wound on the head of Mr. Juo. Foas by throwing a rock at him. ‘he other escaped convicts are thonght to be in the same section.—Asb. Cetizen. Se THE CENTENNIAL 4TH.

A SUCCESS—LARGE ATTENDANCE. WEDNESDAY. The morning was beautiful and calm, espe- cially the latter, with the mercury skirmishing in the neighborhood of 90 degrees avoirdupois, when the train bound for D. C., left Charlotte. It was packed like a saratoga tronk, with only about four inches play for a palm leaf, add to this the pleasure of stopping every six hun- dred yards to take on way-side passengers and you will have a very delicate idea of the trip from Charlotte to the College. We arrived in time, to hear Prof. R. L. Harrison’s address, who kindly consented to fill/the place of Rev. T. B. Witherspoon, D.D., of Richmond, Va, who had failed to arrive on account of his being ill, a very sudden attack, Prof. Harrison's effort was an unusually fire one and was appreciated by both studenta and audience. The students, just after the oration presented him with a fine gold headed cane as a token of their esteem. The assemblage was then dismissed till 8 o’clock, P. M., at which time the representatives of the societies made their appearance on the stage. Just before the exercises began, Mr. R. M. Miller Jr., chief marshal, pinned a bunch of collards and mustard greens on the lapel of our coat and conducted us to a conspicuous place in the house where had been prepared chairs, table and paper, for the use of quill drivers. And just here we wiil say that Mr. Miller made a most excellent marshal, better than the College haa been able to boast of in the past few years. Weare sorry we can’t talk about each speech, find we can’t spare the room. Mr. Brooke led from the Eumenean society, was followed by Harrell from the Phi. There were three representa- tives from each society. All made good speeches, better we think than usual. Mr. W. W. Moore of the “Phi” made decidedly the best oration of the evening. It would have done credit to dn older and more experienced head. His handsome form and easy manner on the stage won the admiration of the house as was shown by the number of blossoms sent from the ladies and the cheers from the gents. Mr. R. M. Miller, Jr., made the last oration and got all the flowers that was left in the house after Mr. Moore’s chivalric effusi on. THURSDAY. On Thursday there was no less than three thous- and people thronging in the campus, Exer- cises opened with prayer by Rev. P. F. Penick. Then the inauguration of J. O. Sampson, Pro- fessor of Latin and French, by the Rev. Jacob Doll. The following persons had honorary de- gress conferred upon tiem : D. D.—Rev. Jas. Bardwell, Mississippi ; Rev. C. W. Lane, Athens, Georgia. LL. D.—Kev. Chas. Philips, University of North Carolina. A. M.—J. N, H. Summerell—class 1873, Then came the orations. 1 Mr. W. B. Arrowood was the salotatorian. We guess his speech was gotten up in good style and were no doubt words fitly spoken. He was cheered by the students and editors when he eulogised Vance, we don’t read latin off hand good enough to tell alk that he said, but we have this consolation, he liked to have forgotten it himself,—stumbled two or three times, However, he got 10 bouquets when he finished. 2 Oration,—Arabian influence on civilization: Jno. A. Tyson—blossoma. 3 Oration—Church and State, Archie C. Daltan. He unearthed a heap of good people that we never heard of and pictured viyidly their good deeds; their grand and glorious lives, and got showers of blossoma for it. 4 Oration—The Feudal system. Cartér,—excused. 5 Oration—Greek influence on Rome, E. M. Suammerell, excused. 6 Oration—The Nebular Hypothesis, A. MclIver Frazer. This we think was the best oration of the day—blvussoma. 7 Oration—Battle of King’s Mountain: Thos. B. Craige—blossoms. 8 Oration—Turks in Europe, B. F. Watkins, “Turkey in- Earope” was heard occasionally from the stage during the speech, it sounded very nice, bat when a fellow is in need of tim- ber to run hia internal organization, he don’t like for the turkey to be in Europe or any oth- er foreign land—blossoms, 9 The Philosophical oration—Mackbeth, Thos, McGehee—-blossoms. The Wiley prize—a gold medal—offered to the best mathmetician in the soph-class was awarded to W. 8S. Moore. The Rockwell prize—offered to the best latin scholar iq the soph-class was awarded to W. J. Bingham, Then the graduating clas, 17 in nomber bad W. F. their sheep skins prenepted—YValedictory— Duncan Rose. No tears, Benediction, We copy the following from Bro.

As plants are not scattered haphazard over the earth, bot- anical geography must be studied, and, with this, plant-history. Botaoy may be applied to the wants of every-day life, as in Agri- calture, Hortienlture, or Medical Botany. Animals often exhibit a marvelous instinct in selecting medicinal herbs, aud an obser- vation of their habits has often, even in the preseut time, led to inmost 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 speak, or of the HEPATINE PLANT, discovered in Southern Nubia, the Flower of whieh changes its color with every change of the atmosphere. The remarkable changes and variations of this Plant and Flower have been for years our special stady, resul- ting in the discovery of its possession of wouderfal medical properties, the existence aud value of which have heretofore been en- tirely unknown to imedieal science.

But when we saw him, with his large six feet two inches frame, slopiiig shoulders, fluxen thin bair, long arina, plain clothes, soft hat, genjal smile and wide mouth, we coald not pealige that he-was the man of our youthful enthasi- asmthe great American orator. Io fact, of all the great men’ we ever saw, John C. Calhoun, of South “Carolina, is the only ove wlio ever came up to.the fall realization of our imaginings. So of Dr. T. DeWitt Talmage, the gréat preacher and Doctor of Divinity of New York. We had expected a grave, atern-looking, reserved, rather repélling man, who looked dowd on common mor- tals from a stand-point almost among the angels, aid near whom common humanity approach with awe and with head bemt down in deep humility and reverence, We were disappointed agaio, and so after reading his remarks about his late visit to ‘Trinity College Commencement, we feel’a desire to introduce bim to North Qarolina as whole thousands saw himand heard him at Trinity, But those who were not there may like to know how he looks. Dr. Talmage is in height ahout § feet 10 inches, straight up to the nape of his néck, where he shows the bend peéuliar to the student and writer—that slight droop forward which long habit at the desk forms. He weighs somewhere gbout one hundred and thirtyyfive pounds. His arms and legs are long; hia head is high, not very wide, and it is partly covered with coarse sandy hair which he carefully traing over the dome to cover certain spots where there is an evident tendency to ‘grow throuzh.” His nose is lang and slightly “‘retrowsse.” Standing in front éfhim and taking a yiew you are struck with the great promineace which the bamp of comparison bas. It must be the pre- dominent bump in his head. - His. eye- browa are pale-sandy and very busby, his eyes is blueegrey and when he draws down his eyebrows nearly hiding the eye, as he frequently doca in speaking, you can see the sparkle of the eye, the dia mond glitter, but it appears so deep that you could not reach it with your finger it we were to thrast it into the aperture. hen in conversation, his” eyes come open and theu you see what large pupils hehasand you can almost feel their leigth. But the speaking feature of his face is his mouth. Itis simply tremen- dous. When he lays it open, as he fre~ quently daes, you look at it, or into jt, in astonishment. It does not literally'reach from ear to ear, but it might be classed in that class, if mouths are classed at all. Ot his voice na idea can be given an pa-~ pet... When he begins it will strike you ‘as being very harsh, grating an the nerves; as he advances, warms up, or you become More accustomed to it, there is a softening in the tone, and when he comes to the pathetic part of his discourse it softens down \and is sweeter and clearer. His manner cannot be described, buta famil- iar gesture of his seems to be with both araised, elbows at right angles, and hand pointing upward. He finished his @efnon ‘at ‘Trinity and backed down from the'desk with his hands in this position aiid the word “Judgment” trembling on his lips. Shortly after, we heard two farmers comparing notes on the sermon. Ooc asked, ‘“‘What part did you like best ?” The reply was, “I liked the way vlyerended best—he seemed to want to say more and yet he was done!"’ The effect of some passages of his sermon was very great, his illustrations very striking aud the overruling power of comparison apparent through both sermon and lec~ «ture. Asa companion Dr. Talmage is. very pleasant and interesting. Hegeemed at ‘Trivity like a schoolboy in vacation. He Was up with the sun and scar pering over the hills and fields until breakfast when he came in and after a hasty meal .made @rash for his pencil. In fact that pencil séemed?to be intruding always. After every conversation the pencil; after every walk, meal and interview, the pengil. No doubs bis-notes oa North Carolinians are vol fous. ood-bye, Doctor.

A gentleman of means named Gardner, residing near Melrose, broaght an action for the pur- pose of having a young woman named Mary Gardner prohibited from calling him ber father. From the evidence it appeared that Gardner, while courting the lady who afterwards became his wife, discovered that she was enciente; not- withstanding this he married her, and a week or two afterwards she gave birth to a child, the defendant in the case. The fact was kept a secret, and Mr. Gardner denies that he is the father . the oe though, till the present trial he made no pablie avowal to thie effect. ‘The Lord Ordinary found for the pursuer, bat the second division have now reverted the decision, holding that Mr. Gardner, by marrying the lady, knowing her condi- tion, took upon himself the burden of be~ ing the repused father, and that he is not now after twenty years’ silence, eutitled to deny the penalty. _~ao---—- CHINESE LABOR ABANDONED. The Boston Globe of Monday says: “Mr. Sampson, the North Adams shoe manufacturer, who employs Chinese work- men, has decided to discharge them, or rather not re-engage them, preferring to give employment to other residents of the town, who are suffering severely from the stoppage of several mills and workshops. Mr. Sampson has hired Chinese shoema- kers for six years. In 1870, having suf- fered much from the strikes of the Cris~ pins, and being uawilling tq comply with their demands, he seht bis agent, Mr. Ubase, to San Francisco for Ohinamen, mainly for the purpuse of breaking up the order, between which and himself a bitter warfare was waging. The first importation consisted af seventy-five men or boys, for most of them were between the ages of sixteen and twenty years. Since thattime several lots have come and retarned, the number employed in the factory during the past six years ranging from seventy-five to upward ofone han- dred. The present number is eighty-five, of-whom forty, the latest arrivals, were imported a yearago. Some of the first importation remained four years, and then retarned to China, and have since come back to this country and are now work- ing at Belleville, N. J. The Chinamen here all work by the month, on contracts for three years or longer. ‘The prices paid them have never been made known to the public, though they are supposed to re- ceive from $20 to $25 per month. Over forty of them are at Kberty to go at any time, the term for which they were hired having expired. They are in no barry to return, and would undoubtedly be gladto renew their contracts, but the opportanity to do ao will probably not be given them. ——$—_-—a> ICE IN LAKE SUPERIOR. The Milwaukee Sentinel priats a letter from Superior, Wis., dated June 5, which says; “The head of Lake Superior is still covered with ice for twenty miles down, of a thickness of ten to twenty feet, and for miles it ts anchored along the ‘shores, Occasionally the wind drives it a short distance, so as to make openings to ad mit the very of the ice, and then closed up so as to hold them there for days, and in some cases for a week or more, before they can getin or ont. Much damage has been doneté evesy craft that has attempted to pass through. Every day for more than three weeks several steam- ers have been in sight, ice bound, No wind can move it from the shores where it is anchored antil it thaws safficiently so that it will vise, and jf the weather keepe as cool as it has been thas far this Spring, there is but little prospect that the e will be clear of ice for twenty days yet. At preseat it is hazardous to attempt & passage through it.” “Awful Gardiner’ was once a_well- knowa pagilist and sporting character in New York. Ou one oceasivn he went to Newark with “a select party” to give a eperting exbibition.

Y. Sun. ——— ee THE LANGUAGE OF FOWLS. Is there any one who keeps fowls who has not noticed the great variety of sounds they make, expressive of their feelings? It amounts almost, if not quite, to a laa- guage ; probably move so than any other creature except man. Even the modula- tion of noises made is very significant of meaning. First, there is piping of the little chick, calling for the care of its stately mother who continually keeps an- swering wich the assuriog “cluck, clack.” As the chick grows a little older, the piping is succeeded by a chirrap; then there ia the thrilling song of pleasure they make under their mother’s wings when sitting down to rest; but just put your haud under the mother and pall out oue of the little chicks, and hear ite cry of terror, miugled with the d«finance and abaag of its pareut. T'brow @ large beetle iuto their coop, and hear the consternation uttered by all the little family, miogled with the warning voice of their matron. Now, throw them some dainty bit, -and hear how soou her voice changes; ber children understand there is something extra nice for them by her peculiar des clamation, which brings in all. stagglers in a great hurry. How well the little things comprehended the peculiar ery of their mother in case of danger, such as the approach of the cats or hawke; or let a litsle straggling waif peep into the coop, and bear her timely warning to keep out. In the course of time the mother tires of her charge, and gives her children the slip, who express their forlorn feelings by a whioning cry, while huoting around for ber. In due time the young gentleman chick tries his voice at a crow. Conld any one ever believe that such stammer- ing, such straining and croaking, woald ever reach the clear, rich song, tbat has been celebrated in the history and poetry of all the great nations of the earth, and cause so many great “awakening3”’ in all classes af society? Soon he begins to feel gallant, and if, by chance, he finds some rare bit, hgcalls some of the nearest belles to partake of it, but they frequently arrive just in time to see him bolt it him- self. One of the next masical strains is the pratiog of ballets when they feel hap-~ py and well; then there is the alarm, when startled by anything etrange ; also the shrill cry raised by all, should a hawk appear. Another peculiar noise is made when you approach their roosts at night, uttered and answered all round,—a slight, thrilling noise, as much as to say, hawk | what's that strange noise!—which is deepened into a sharp tut-tut, if danger is suspected, and into a shrill, piercing cry, if taking from their perebes, evidently suspecting that you may be thioking of chicken pot-pie? I think there is no domestic animal that bas a less offensive voice than the domestic fowl. It will compare favorably with the voice of the duck, turkey, guinea fowl, goose, or pea fowl. Their loudest noise bas a charm for many a fancier, when they set up the ery, “Uome! Come! Come! Take the egg.” — Henry Hales in Poultry Bulletin.

A man, as he gets to be worth more, may become worthless, There is no whet to the appetite - like early dew, nothing for the stomach like grass and wild flowers, taken with a fast- ing eye at five in the morning. A busbaud telegraphed to his wife: “What have you for breakfast, and how is the baby ?’’ The eurwer came, “Buck- wheat cakes and the measles.’’ A little girl hearing it remarked that all people had once been children, artless- leasly inquired, ““‘Who took care of the babies?” — “My dear lady, your daughter is lovely a perfeet little pearl.” “Aud pray, sir, whatam 1?” “Ob, you are the mother of pearl.” When pretended duellists call for “pis- tols and coffee” they probably want the pistols to-make a show of fight, and the coffee to settle.

When North Carolina passed the ordi- nance of secession Vunce was etumping the State for the Union. He was an ancumpromising Heary Clay Union whig. After the State seceded he raised a “com- pany. He was elected and served two years as Colonel of the 20:h regiment participating with great gallantry iu many hard fought battles. In 1862 be was elected Governor over Col, Wm. Jolingon. Vance was the whig conservative candi- date, while Johnuéou was voted for by the original secessionists, In this coduty Lewis Thompson, Rev. A. M. Oraig, Josep Cooper, James Bond and others of like political faith voted and worked for Vaneey As soon as Vance was elect- ed he turned his whole attention to the noble work of feeding and clothing poor soldiers and their widows aud orphans At no time during our fierce struggle did Vance fail to mainfain law and order in the State. No man could be arrested without due process of law. The sacred writ of habeas corpus was rigidly enfore~ ed. Finally when the war ended and the Federal soldiers enterred the Gover- nor's palace, althongh Vance’s opportani- lies for acquiring riches were greater than any other man’s in the State, they found aothing exeept the scant furniture. and raiment which is common to the» homes of all poor men, Vance was seized and carried to the old capitel prison at Wash- ington City. While there in response to an inquiry why he was in prison, replied —''I am in here for debt. Holden pledg- ed the last man and the last dollar for the war. I went his security. Le fuiled. Lam here to pay his obligatioo.” Als thougi Vance when the war ended had just been re-elected Governor by the large majority of sixty-four thousand votes and had 18 mouths to serve, the carpet baggers put him in prison and the military made Holden Governor. Now the people intend to give Vance an op- portunity to serve out bis term. Bertie will give him 100 more votes than Merri- mon received.— Albemarle Times. a ee HOUSE-KEEPERS’ LACK OF KNOWLEDGE. One of the most prolific sources of mat- rimonial difficulties ia the lack of knowl- edge on the part of wives of the duties of housekeeping. In these days there are a hundred young ladies who can drum on the piano, to one who can bake a loaf of good bread. Yet a hungry husband cares more for a good dinner than be doee—sv long as his appetite is unappeased—to listen to the musie of the spheres. Heavy bread have made many heavy hearts, given rise to dyspepsia—borrid dyspepsia—and its herd of accompanying torments. Girls who desire that their husvands should be amiable and kind, sliould learn bow to make light bread. Whea a young man is courting, he can well live at bome; or, if he has to go a distance tu pay bis ad-~ dresses, he usually obtains good meals at a hotel or eating-house; but when he is married and gets to house-keeping, his wife assumes the functions of his mother or his landlady, and it is fortanate for ber if she has been educated so as to kuow whata good table is. ‘hose who are dependent apon hired cooks, make a sor- ry show at house keeping. ‘Ihe stomach performs a very important part of the economy of humanity, and wives whu are forgetful of this commit a serious mistake. Even the lion may be tamed by keeping hin well fed. — Sel. - THE CHINESE. AND DEATH. The Chinese are almost indifferent to the phenomenon of dissolution, and fre- queatly compass their own end when life becomes wearisome. A wife sometimes elects to follow ber bagband on the astar- light road of deatb; and parents wil! de- stroy their offspring 1 times of famine and great distress, rather than allow them to suffer. Still more remarkable is the custom of selling the lives. in order that they may purchase the superior advanta- ges of obsequies, which are considered to insure the body in safety for future resur- rection. A wealthy man condemned to death will arrange with bis jailer to buy him a substitate for a certain sum of money to be spent upon the poor wretche’s inter- ment and the preservation of his body. Should he have parents, so much is usu- ally paidto them iu compensation for their son’s life. Cbinamen invariably help to support their parents. Filial re- spect and devotion is the great Chinese virtue and religious precept, in which they rarely fail. Regarding death as inevitable he makes the best of a bad bargain, and cunningly and comically gets paid for dying. ‘The wholesale destruction of life in that coun- try ia greatly the result of indifference.

Nothing is more important, after secar- ing pure air to breathe, than to obtaie pure water. Hard water isthe cause of many serious and fatal maladics. Water containing organic impurities, as sewage, eraivings from cess-pools, barn-yards, or cemeteries, is a frightful source of dis ease. ‘The degree of hardaess of water, which generally indicates the amount of mineral impurities, is readily tested by determin-~ ing whether it readily forms a good lather soap. ‘I'he lather should be compared with that made from the same soap with rain water. The organic impurities are the most to be dreaded. ‘They may be detected in either of the following ways; it ie well to try both :— To a small bottle fall of the suspected water, add a pinch of sugar. Cork tight- ly, and set in a warm place. If the least tarbidity appears after standing ten days or two weeks, the water is unfit for use. To a smal! quantity of the water-in a small bottle, add two or three drops of a solution of permangunate of potash, just suffcieut to impart a slight tinge. Lt the color of the sulation has diminished after standing a week, the water is foul. Both ot these testa are so easy that any one can try them; and ao one should rest conteuted without agsuring himsel/ that the water he driaks is pure. me The Really Well Dressed Lady.

A subscriber asks, “What do you think of onions as food? How are they best prepared ?”’ Onions are certainly food, and some authors claim that theic nutritious proper- ties are very considerable. ‘The only ob- jeetion to them is their strong odor end tlavor, which are due to an acrid volatile oil which they contain, aud which pos- sesses powerful exciting and irritating qualities. ‘The onion belongs to the same class of plants with the garlic and leek. ‘Those varieties grown in cool climates are so strong as to be scareely fit for food. Io Spain, and other warm eougtries, milder varieties are produced which are very wholesome food. Perhaps about the only advisable use of unions grown inthis country is aa a flavoring tor other food, when considered desirable. Only those with healthy stomachs should attempt to eat onions in any form. They are quite too acrid for dyspeptics. The acridity may be somewhat lessen- ed by soaking the bulbs iu salt water for twelve hours, after they have been peeled and quartered. After soaking in salt water, they should be well washed in fresb water to remove the salt. Peel- ing under water prevents emarting of the eyes. —————— A WHOLESOME LAW. The papers state that a city ordinance of San Franciseo forbids the use of a sleeping room, as ageb, which contains less than five bandred cubic feet of air for each occupant, for vivlating which twelve Chinamen were sometime since arrested. Such a law is certainly an evidence of ood sense in the law-makers. ‘The min- mom amount of space allowed, however, is only “one-half that which savitarians say is absolutely required for the mein- tenance of bealtbfal purity; and even when-one thousand feet are provided for each occupant ofa room, it is essential that the whole air of the room should be changed several times an hoar,- to main- tain ive parity. ‘The most efficient means} of ventilation are required to effeet this; hence, ventilation is as necessary a meas~ ure as the provision of proper air space! A capacioas room without ventilation would be less healthy thau a dry-goods box with a constaut curreut of pure air through it. ; te ; WALKING HORSES. FAST bm Ah S ref The best gatea horse had) is the- fast walk. A slow walking horse is an abomi- vation. Who has euce with such a horse? If you ride him, or drive’ him, he exhausts your patience, Ifhe is used to plow or barrow, or go ou the road, he mopés along at a snail's pace. He doeson!y about half the work of the rapid walker. If” time is money, you wake monéy becagse you save time by having a horse that walks fast. Breeders should pay atteution to this mat- ter. To.selecting a stallion to breed from, hy all neans select onethat can walk fust. A slow walking stallion willbe likely to get slow walkiog colts; while the stallion that has a long, rapid, spirited stride, ‘will be likely to beget colts with a similar ac- tion. Then there is @ great deal in breeding to ahorse with spirit or ambition, These cold-blooded horses will beget cold-blooded colts. The nearer you can approach the thoroughbred. even for obtaining a fast wulker, the better. There is game there. and spirit. aud endarance, and stamina, and style. There are the neat, bony heads, the protuinent eyes, the small ears, the capa- vious nostrils, the large luogs. and chests, the well-develuped masecle, the bones as dense as ivory. Even for walkers, then, get the nearest to thuroughbred pyssible, and the same for trotters. and aaa the same for runners. You bave then, horses fit for anyompany, and for any purpose—to haal the plow, or buggy. or carriage, or to carry you upon their backs. Bred horses that you will not be ashamed to have your friends see.— Cole- man’s Rural World. ——_—— ~- eo o——————— SOUTHERN COTTON SPINNING. ‘I'he suecess attending the manufactare of cotton fabrics at the South is attracting increased attention throughout the coun try. While Eastern mill, have been run- ning at a logs, or not running at all, the Southern factories have usually been able to declare satisfactory dividends. ‘The aunual report of the Graniteyille, South Carolina, Mannfactaring Company shows that the factory has beev run at full time throughoat the year, and 126,796 yards more of cloth were made than during the year preceding» ‘Che entire product of the year was 10,663,293 yards consuming 8,346 bales of cotton. The profits from the sale of the goods daring the year amounted to $74,499, from which a divi- dend of 10 per cent. on the capital stock was declared. ‘The company also par- chased a valuable mill privilege, erected gas works and new operative houses, and maiutained the high condition of the en- tire property. ‘The cost of the cotton consomed was 13 58-100 cents per poand, on which the saving of freight alone was a material item. ‘The operations of the Angusta Factory have, we believe, been equally satisfactory. Sach instances most forcibly illustrate the possibilities of cotton manufacturing at the South. —Jron Review. ——__—_~~ap-—- Activity Essential to Longevity. Lazy persons, it is said, die young.

In the city of Philadelphia. there stands a amall, uncouth, unimposing looking building which one hundred years ago was considered a splendid piece of architecture. One hundred vears to-day in that building was assembled a Continental Congress; the people of the colonies had been writhing under the galling yoke of a miserable tyrant; their righta had been taken from them; these men here assembled were their representatives, “appealing to the Su- preme Judge of the world for the rectitude of their intentions” determined to seek redress, but in what manner, weak and powerless as they were, they knew not how. Beside the representatives assembled in the old hall, a vast concourse of people from far and wide had come together, the pulse of every one beating with renewed animation and every heart thrilled with feelings of liberty. They stood without, awaiting calmly and with almost breathless patience—the action of the Congress; the old sexton even catching some of the en- thusiam, had taken his stand in the old belfry; there he stood grasping the rope with his thin bony hands with his eves fixed upon the old bell as if by some magic spell waiting for the glad tidings, at last the fiat comes forth, “We solemnly publish and declare that these United colonies are, and of a right, ought to be free and independent.” The old sexton hears it, pulls the rope and the old bell peals forth the glorious news; the people catch it up and and huzza af- ter huzza arizes, shout after shout cleaves the air—Liberty! Liberty ! America is free, union and freedom forever! what a grand and glorious scene | where is one in the history of ages that will compare with it, where in all the muta- tions of historic government, can we find an ac- tion so full of intrepid bravery, true heroism and patriotic devotion—there 1s none to equal it, no not one. The lion was aroused from his lair, and the startling principles put forth in the declaration were regarded by the tyrants of the old world with astonishment and consternation while it tended to revive and animate the friends of liberty to renewed exertions to maintain their rights against the encroachments of tyranny. And why not we celebrate the fourth as well as any people! is it not as much ours as anybody’s, is not this ourcommon country? The old North State was one of the original thirteen and right nobly did she act her part in those times. We should have a jealous eyeupon the way our northern friends celebrate this day, and should vie with them in doing its memory honor, And right here I would say @ great deal of honor and respect is due those gentlemen who determined to celebrate this day aright; it will do more than anything else that has been done in restoring the right feeling between the North and’the South, in bringing aboat the fraternal relations,—-more in banishing this secret ill-will that bas been growing in the hearts of the two sections since the war, more to break down this hage black wall of differences which has separ- ate us for so inany years; this is our common country, her interest is yours, her glory yours and you have as much right and are as much duty bound to lift your voice for her welfare as the bitterest New Englander that ever lived. I thank God that we are again the union that that banner, established by our fathers uader whose folds they fought and died, and which waved over us so long and 80 peacefully still kisses with its silken folds the genial breezes of: our sunny clime, still reflects the sunbeams of eace and happiness upon our country, once ae united oad I hope united forever. «We had another banner once—forbid that we should ever cease to hallow its glorious memories, It has been sadly furled and has taken its flight to join those heroes and warriors who. fought for it and died by it, the recollections of whose deeds are so dear aud so sweet to us, whose memories are so engraven upon the tablets of our hearts that all the flood tides of life cannot wash them out—but above all let us revive the Stars and Stripes, the flag of a Washington, the. flag under which our fathers fought and gained their independence. a We owe to the patriotism moderation and wonderful sagacity of Washington and his com- peers a debt of gratitude which we never can repay, for at the most critical hour of onr na- i existence, at a time when-everything was dark and gloomy, when it seemed dou whether we had freed oan nn" the des- potism of England only subject us to the more re- volting eee or subjection to some foreign tray St dark and most critical hour when I i i fat they ube titattiops chi was about to be lost, they the r -stood up like giants blessings we en s0- we to owalor, oe ae have been rent arid torn -esunder. | , ry breathing. der. tar of atta et the hs to the’ noble by our. peo- everything or oa : be ‘ofa land. lived ‘the 20th of May 1775 there termined spirit of .resistance which found i response in the.

I believe if it were not the women there would be no such thing. as patriotism—love of country wonld be: but an | empty name—they are the bone and sinew of any country. ‘ And here in this county took place’ one of the noblest and smost patriotic acts of those memorable times ; when the colonies had made their call for troops young ladies of .the. most respectable families of Rowan met together and or addresses of any suitors who had not obeyed their country’s call and was there a man so lost» to bravery as to. withstand that rebuke; one of. the most heroic and noble deeds of ancient his- py is when Rome was beseiging Varthageand had refused mercy to the Carthageinan’s they supplicating it; they determined to resist to the last and their women cut off their hair;, which was greatly esteemed at that day—and made it into bow strings, this was a deed that surpassed that in self-sacrifice, for the Carthagenians shorn of their greatest and most beautiful or- nament sacrificed their pride, while the Rowan ladies gave up for their country—that which above all things else was dear,—their beaux. Another act of fortitude and patriotiem is worthy of mention, General Green in his long, arduous and eventful march throngh the Carolinas, while passing through Salisbury stopped at the principal hotel which stood some- where between where the old Mansion House now stands and the court house, dispirited, fa- tigued, hungry, penniless and alone—the land- lady Mrs. Elizabeth Steele finding out his con- dition had set bofere him a well prepared table and approaching him with words of sympathy, pulled from under her apron two small bags of specie perhaps, her earnings for years, and proffered them to him; take these said she, you will want themand I can do without them: With tears trickling from his eyes he accepted them. Such were some of the acts of ourmothers, acts of puré patriotism and true devotion un- surpassed by any of the deeds celebrated in Grecian song or Roman mythology—and not only so was it in Rowan but from all portions of the country thus arose woman’s ardent zeal—- the alarms of war—the roar of strife itself could not silence her voice, lifted in encouragement and prayer, the horrors of a massacre could not, drive her from her post of duty. It is impossible to appreciate her vast in- fluence upon the destinies of the infant Repub- lic, she nursed the infancy of freedom, history dont do her justice and I am sure I cannot. There is no State in the Union whose early history is marked by such pure patriotism, un- sullied devotion to liberty or such indomitable opposition to tyranny as North Carolina, and it is much to be regretted that while her sister States have been holding up to the world the valiant deeds of their noble sons and erect- ing monuments to their memory, she has let the names of her heroes whose patriotism and chivalric daring have not been equaled, whose characters were so worthy of imitation and emulation, go unhonored and unsung, until they have almost dwindled away into nothing- ness—all of us should feel the opprobrium of this reglect. “There are deeds which should not pass away And names that should not wither, tho’ the earth Forget ner Empires witha just decay Tne enslavers and enslaved their death and birth.” The famous Tea Party of Boston when a number of citizens: disguised as Indians went on board a ship in the harbor and threw over- board the tea with which she was loaded, has been told by every writer of national history, children are taught it in their early lessons, it adorns the picture books of the nurseries but scarcely anybody knows that Cols; Ashe and Waddell of Wilmington, N. C, marched with their brave followers to Bruns- wick before which town was« anchored the sloop of war, Diligence, loaded with stam ped paper, and so terrified the captain and his crew that no attempt was made to land it, seized thesloop of war's boat, hoisted it upon a ce rt, ix- ed a mast, mounted a flag upon it, and marched back in triumph to Wilmington; then seized the stamp master, Houston, and forced him to take a solemn oath not to execute his office ; like the former it was ‘fot done under any diagaise-but bravely and openly—it was more daring in its action and more important in its result. The first blood of the revolution was shed upon ‘our soil—the first strike in the great cause of liberty, which ten years afterwards united the whole colonies. “No stern ambition waved them to the deed; In Freedom’s cause they nobly dared to die; The first to conquer, and first to bleed, God and their country’s rights their cry.” Here within our borders and friccipey by North Carolinians was Lord Cofwallis and his ruffians:so disabled that the victory of Guilford. Court House terminated in his over- throw and final surrender at Yorktown’ in Virginia. Then tet our hearts swell with pride for the old North State, Here was the birth place of independence, here the cradle of liberty was first rocleed, here, were-dasde dows greater than at Platea or Marathon, Jet her past history animate and encourage us to sostain her ftir name and live and if- neces- sary die, for her, honor and. welfare, “All hail to thee, thou good old State the noblest of the band, i f Who raised the flag of liberty in this our native land, « .. ‘ All hail to thee! ee eee sons were first to urn the y ; The yoden fetters from their hands at Meck- ey broke, Ye sons of Carolina, I bid you in her name, Devote your time and talents to retrive her r tarnished fame.” But. while, your be: os our old let us Soi) tat breed we are throbing with a pledged themselves not to receive the attentions |,, wit Sood old and Jong ’ Ppa existed. this de )e Th = ing air, and stretching from the Atlantic ocean -on the East where the sun arises from its dark bine waves, shedding. light. - the rock-bound Pacific on the t ben whose billows it sete in all the m : and golden splendor of an Eastern sun-tet. — ' “Italy may boast of her,ever green bowers, Aut Sw may vauntof her gatdeus and owers, - Romantic und wild are proud Scotia *moun- tains, And Granada may tell of her groves and her fountains, - The climes of the East may exhibit their treasuries, ane a And musicmay wake to enliven their But there is one spot which is betier then these, ¢ °Tis the land we live in, this beautifal land.” —but the best of all, herefreedom exists, here the people may rule, here each may have a voice in the welfare of his country.

Of course the North press encourage this pusilanimity ; it is a matter of interest with them. But it requires ap amount of cheek on their part _ to any occasion when at the same time they call on us to con- tribate three fourths of the votes to elect their choice and sustain their principles. Our op- ion is that the sponer it fs established thatZa democrat is a democrat ‘the ‘country; over, entitled to equal rights with every other demo- cratand no more, the better it will be for the parte, QOne-reason why we have thought it desirable for Southern democrats to speak out in advance ia because we wish to beat the radi- cals, and to do this we must have Southern voter. Now if we leave the matter entirely in the hands of the Northern Democrats they might select a man our je would not vote for. For instance they would vote for Hancoek, but would not vote for Sherman. Let this miserable mischief treeding monotone about Southerners having no opinions die out without an echo.— Albemarle Times. We clip the above from the Albemarle Times, one of the most eprightly and vigorous papers of the east. I¢ is not easy to controvert the position here taken in respect to Southern Democratic eub- serviency to the Northern wing of the party. It ia the common sense view of | the subject, aud under some conditions would indicate the ttte line of policy whieh the hanar and self-respect of the Southern wing should follow. And yet, we may he allowed to inquire, what would, in all probability, have been the effect of carrying out this line of policy in the present Presidential contest. The sub- mission which the Southern democracy has made and is making, proceeds not so much from a meaqu spirit an their part as from a due regard to the disasterous con- sequences of provoking the anjust and fanatical prejadices of the masses iv the Northern States. We all know how casy it is ta excite those prejudices, and how inevitably the subjects are led ‘to re- sist and appose everything that would enure to the advantage of the South. There is probably no syrey way to per- petuate radical rule than ta practice the suggestions of the Times. No one dis- putes that it is a virtual surrender of rights to yield as we are doing; bat if that re- linquishbment will purchase for us a great good otherwise impossible, the question seems to us as redycel to one of mere policy. It ie like a man going to market with bis wagon and team and encounters in his road the trunk of a great tree. He is entitled to the raad, but the ponderoas log obstructs him. Lie may cut a new road around it, and eo get on his way with a small comparative loss. If he should attempt to jamp it with his team and wagon, he might keep the road, but have all the breakage and ponsequent loss for bis rigid assertion of rights. Jo every country in which we have traveled— rarth, east, south, weat — the farmers uni- farmly agree ‘an a practical question like this, and always turn aut to the right or left and make a new road for the time being. Thia may be called common sense, because it is such good sense as that everyhody follows it, If we are correct in this view of the subject, there is not then sych a ground for shame jn the present attitude of the South aa should coerce her to act differ. ently. We hold, however, that the na- tional elections since the war, as well as the one now approaching, are mere ex- periments in ao far as the South is con- cerned. These experiqients have de- monstrated that the party now in power is nat friendly to ys,-bgt have caustantly sought to injure us in all the ways open to “it. Hence the South turns to the Demecracy of the North, and yill con- tinue to vote with and for them, believing that that party will have the statesmau- ship and moral cagrage to rise above the mean prejudices of an ignorant constitu eusy, and pursue guch a course towards the Soath as shall make her feel that she ig an equal in the Union, and that her rights are fully acknowledged and secured. to her nuintorrnpted enjoyment. If she should be disappoiyted in this, she will of course look for eulargement and deliver- | Againg i |the ig winne? in asserting, and vainly. at- tempting to enforcing, rights juatly belong: another, sourae pursued by *South~ ern country tiewspapers” on this sabject suggested Jis not anly sustained; but was and advised, by her leading statesmen, with very few exceptions. And the com~ mon sense of her masses in all parts of South ratify it and act ypoa it, Free thought sometimes over leaps ali such considerations and planis Ite lf hight above them — The world would lag in old rats forever if there ware aot soaje whose keen - er pereeptiog and sense drove them to break the yeual bands of restraint. Evory- hody respects advance thinkers, though it is donbtless a wise constitution of men that they are more disposed to compro- mise with this adventurous portion of the race than to accept at once all their theories and épasteuts.” Ta thie we‘are pleased to suggest patience to our highly esteemed friend of the Times, believing as we do, thet his views with some modification, no doubt, will yltimately become the policy of the South, and that it will have a duc regard to her houor as well as ber material interest. ——~—- Dox Car_os, the distinguished Span. iard who forso long a time troubled Spaiu with a civil war, and was but recently routed and pat to flight, passed through thid place last Thursday morning, aceom., panied by his suit of officers, Spanish and Meziran. Since his, flight from Spain he bas visited Mexico, and the newspapers say he tried to organize a party there with a view to succeeding to the throne and government of that countfy. It is said he has $20,000,000 depasited in English Banks, and cousequently is a man of power, flying around through the world, seeking a place where he may light aud fiad worshippers. He ia at- tending the great Exhibition in Philadel- phia, at present, where doubtless his presence produces a small sensation. The priest in charge of the Catholic eburch in Charlotte “father Hawnvs,” having coneladed to break over the laws of the denomination in respect to marry- ing, eloped with Miss Cora Brapsnaw, a few days ago, passing this place, up the Western road to Lenoir, There he ap- plied for ligense to marry; bat the Register of Deeds was absent, and the discomfort~ ed party went on towards Watauga and Teunesece.

Fout years ago the Republica’ suc- ceeded in thé elections, not 80 1 on ac- count of the strength of their own ecandi- dates as of the weakness and unpopularity of the Democratic, niminees. As soon as the Baltimore Convention surrendered to Greeleyism the Democratic hosts became ut- terly demoralized and an %j nious defeat was inevitable. Satin The nomination of Greeley was a pew ahem only on a grander scale, of the same under which, in 1868, placed on the National Dem- ocratic ticket a most unfortunate candidate for the Vice Presidency upon an exceedingly objectionable platform, So far, this year, the Demderacy seem to have committeed ‘no iilstakes whatever, either in the nontination of candidates or in the adoption of Platforms. “One of the best campaign documents’ I have ever read is the National ratic Platform adopt- ed by the St. Convention; and the Platform of thi ‘ State, though i same ring to.it. » The watehwords in are—“ Honest men for office ;” “° Econo in the administration of Public Affuirs ; “ Retrenchment and Reform.” In view of the foregoing facts, the outlook for a complete Democratic victory this Fall seems to be exceedingly bright and promis- ing. All that is now nec to insure an overwhelming triumph in North Carolina is for our party leaders te:take care that no mistakegshall be committed:in. making nom- inations for the Legislature for County offices. The best party org n in the world will not ealfice of itself to “insure a victory, if the mominees of the Party have not the confidence, and do not represent ; wishes, of the people. a This is no time for discord and dissension, for political rivalry and wrangling, and for|;. personal jcalousies. The man must stand aside, when he is in the way of the success of the principles, which he himself profess- es to advocate. We cannot afford to carry deadweight during this campaign. As fur as I can sec, the people seem to be disposed generally to attend the Nominating Conven- tions and to put forward as candidates those who will add strength, and not be a source of weakness to our ticket. A party conven- tion is always popular, and justly so, when the choice.of the convention is the undoubt- ed expression of the will of the people. And there is realty never necessity for a conven- tion to nominate any one as a candidate who is distasteful to the people. With a good Legislative and County tick- et, old Rowatt may be set down for Tilden and Vance and all our nominces, by a very large majority. Who the nominees shall be for the Legislatare and the various County offices, must be left to the good sense of the people themaclves. And if the nominations, when made, shall really reflect the wishes of the people, the ticket will be invincible. It will be utter folly and sheer madness to Charlotte Observer, necessitates the re- dedication of the church in which “father Hands,” officiated at the time of bis in- fidelity. No doabt it was his duty to have handed in his credentials before | “stepping down and oat,” and his failare to do so subjects him to the imputation of motives highly offensive as regards the vows taken upoo entering the priesthood. The lady for whom he makes this deser- tion of principles ia well known in this commanity as the danghter of the late Robert Bradshaw, accémpliebed and handsome, and worthy the constant devo- tion of @ faithfyl man, The crime of the priest Is in dolag what he had vowed he wonld not do. ‘That is alone between bim and God. Let bim not add another to the pomber of broken vows, involv- ing the happiness and may be the life of avother than himeelf. -——-- 8 8 82} . LEGISLATIVE AND COUNTY NOMINATIONS. A valued friend of The Sentinel, one of the nominees on our State ticket, writes a letter urging the importance of selecting the very best men for the Legislature, Uounty and Township offices. This is a matter of so wuch importance that we direct attention to it in the earliest moments of the campaign, and shall fre- quently refer to it during the neat sever. al weeks. In his letter our friend says ;— “Please let me urge. the propriety of “frequently and sharply calling attention “to the avery» nominating strang “men for the Legislatare, County gnd “Township offices; the importance of meee wd nok the Counties end “how mach will depend on Oognty nowi- autdoiee No. iyeh should bald Gath pe “personal grounds, wha can add anythiug *to the success of the party.

Before putting a man forward in these times for any office of hon- or or trust, the following questions ought to be asked about him, and answered favorably: Is he honest? Is he capable? Is he available? If he is honest and capable, but not available, he should not be nominated. If he is honest and ayailable but not capable, hashould not be nominated. If he is capable and avajla- ble but not honest; he should not by any means be nominated. There are numbers of men everywhere, who are honest and ca- pable, as well as available; and no good reason can be given why any other sort should eyer be nominated. For the first time since the close of the late unhappy war between the States, a Na- tional Democratic ticket has been chosen, which all good Democrats, and all liberal and conservative men, south as well as north, can support with genuine sincerity and cor- diality, and with good hope of success, Our leaders and our people already begin to feel confident of victory. One of the most clear headed and inteHigent farmers in this Coun- ty remarked to me, in the presence of several others, during the course of a conversation, a few. days since, that he thought the elec- tion of Tilden, although to be accomplished by peaceful means, would in reality be as great a Revolution as that which secured the Independence of the United States in the days of 1776. The issues involved in the present political campaign were quite as great, he thought, as those involved in tlie le for*American Liberty. The first ution ws3 the result ef an appeal to arms. The sccond Revolution will be the re- sult of an appeal to the judgment and rea- son of the American people as. expressed at the ballot box. There are hundreds of thou- sands of Republicans who to vote with the Democratic party at the next elec- tion, because they are tired and disgusted with the corruption and misgovernment of the party in power. These men are honest and sincere, although they have heretofore acted from mistaken matives with the Re- publican party, and they ought to be en- to cast in their lot with us, and to aid us ir the work now before the peo- of ‘the country from its pre- sent condition of degradation and ruin.

Lere the Indians made repeated assaults but were repuised with great slaughter. The Indians fivally gained higher gronud than Reno and with longer range guns than the cavalry, kept up « galling fire till night. ‘The Indians re- newed the attack at daylight. Maj Reno had loet 40 odd killed before reach- ing the bluff, many in hand to hand con- flicts, the Indiaas outnumbering them ten to one. ‘Themen were without water 36 hours. They determined to reagp water at all hazards, and Col. Betiton made a sally and routed the main body, guarding the main approach to the water. ‘The water was gained with ove killed and seven wounded. ‘I'be fighting ceased for the night, daring which Maj Reno pro posed to resist further attacks.

Gen. Custer was surrounded or every ‘side by the Indians, and men and horses fell as they fought on the skirmish line or in line of battle. Custer was among the last who fell, but when his cheering voice was no longer heard, the Ludians made easy work of the remainder, The bodies of all, saya the newspaper corres~ poudents, were etripped and most of them were horribly mutilated. Quster was shot through the bedy and threagh the head. The troops cared for the wounded and buried their dead and returned to their camp for supplies and iustractions from the General of the army. Col. Smith arrived at Bismarck last night with 35 of the wounded. The Indians lost heavily jn the battle. The Crow scout survived by hiding 4n a ravine.

Wasutneron, D.C. July 11.—There were 4 deaths here yesterday from heat ; 42 in New York, 14 in Baltimore. Recently Postmaster General Jewell au- thorized the statement that he had no other expectations than to remain in office until the 4th March. Yesterday the Postmaster General called on the President on business and was informed that his resignation would be acceptable. He immediately wrote it. Internal Revenue Commissioner Pratt has resigned. Jewell was before the Committee on Post Offices and Post Routes to-day. He had turned over all cases of violations of law in his department to the Attorney General for prosecution. He would decline giving con- versations with cabinet officers or reasons for removals, beyond general ones. nestion— Was your resignation forced or voluntary? Answer—Well, the President notified me that my resignation would be accepted and I tendered it. Q—Were any ch preferred against you? A—No, sir, not that I am aware of.

Henry Clay, that great man, the pride and heaor of his.couvtry, always express- ed feelings of profound affection and ven- eration for bis mother. higual corres- pondence and onliaing ion aybsisted between them to the last hour of life. Mr. Olay ever spoke of her as.a model of maternal ebaragier and female excellence, and it is sale Fas e never met his con- stituents in. Woodland county, afier her de without some allusion to her, which 26 ected both him aud his audience. And nearly ‘the last words uttered by this great statceman, wheu he came to dis, were, Mother, ‘mother, mother.” It ia natural for us to feel that ghe ppust have been a good mother, that was loved and so dutifully served by snch. a,boy, and that neithes could have beem.wanting jn rare virtues. Benjamin Franklin wag gconstomed to refer to his mother in the tenderest tone of filial affeciion. His respect gnd affee- tion for her were maintained among other ways, in frequeot presents, that contiibu- ted to ber comfort and solace in her ad- vancing years In one of bis letters to her, for @gample, he sends ber a moidore, a gold piece of the value of six dollara, ‘ihe chaise bire,’” said he, “that you may ride warm to meetings during the wiuter.”’ In another, he gives her an accouat of the growth and improvement of his soa aad daughter—topies which, as le well. uos derstood, areever as dear to the grand~ mother as to the mother, ‘Thomas Gray, author of “Elegy in a Country’ Churchyard,” was most assida- ous in his attentions to his mother while she lived; and, after her death, he cher- ished ber memory with sacred sorrow. Mr. Mason informs us that Gray seldom mentioned his mother without a sigh. ‘The inecription whivh he placed over her remains speaks of her as “ihe careful, ten- der mother of many children, one of whom ‘alone had the misfortune to survive her.” How jouching is this brief tribute of grateful Jove! Volumes of eulogy could not increase our admiration ofthe gentle being to whom it was paid—her patient devotion, her meek eudurance.— W ber- ever the name and gevius of Gray are known, there shall also his mother's vir- twep be told for a memorigl of her. He was buried, according to his directions, by the side of his mother, in the chareh- yard at Stake, After his death, her gowns and wearing apparel were found in @trank in lig apartment, just ap she had-teft' theary It seemed as if he goald never take the ¥esolutiog to open it, in order to distribute them to his female re-~ lations, to whom, by his will he bequeath- ed them. Amos Lawrence always spoke of lis mother in the strongest terms of venera- tion and love, and in many letters to bis children and grandchildren are found mes- aages of affectionate regard for his mother, such as could haye emanated only from a heart overflowing with filial gratitude. Her form, bending over bis bed in silent prayer, at the hoar of twilight, when she was abvut leaving him for the night, was among the earliest and most cherished recol ections of his early years and his childbood’s home. Sergeant S. Prentiss.

In summer, such food should be given as would keep the aui~ mal in an improving condition, and woald cause it to lay on a little fat, bat not so much as to cause it to suffer from heat, as a fat porker andvubtedly does. Cooling foods, sach as plenty of young clover and bran and middling slop is what we use much of, not forgetting to give regular and ‘abundant supplies of fresh, cool wa~ vr. In putting up swine for exhibition purposes, we bave wied many,, different kinds of food for the fall exhibitions, but have found noue so desirable as a slop made of corn and oats ground together, one-third of the former, by measure, two- thirds of the latter. (ne of the best ways to prepare it is to scald it at night and feed next morning, put on the mass only enough bot water to thoroughly moisten it and then cover up the barrel tight go it can steam well, and make the mass wmel- low and nice by morning. If it is foand andesirable to seald it, moisten the mass with water and then put in une or more pans of sour milk —thick milk or clabber —to cause it to eour by the time it is us- ed. We use both or either plan, and find them both good. Aaan ordivuary sum- mer feed, we have fuund this food to an- awer almost all purposes as experience has abendantly proved that breeding rock should not be very fat, only in a healthy, growing conditiou, to insure healthy, vigerous offspring.

There is something very pecaliar in the fact of an offeuder pleading the crimi- nality of his offe.ee as a ground for the escape from its cousequences. It implies, first, that he acknowledges his offence, which is rare enough to be peculiar. It implies also that he prefers that sume oue else way suffer for his errors. Thus a noted gambler refuses. to pay several thousands of dollars due. for rent, on the ground that he leased the house for immoral purposes, and therefure the plain- tiff caanot recover. Equally peculiar was the defence offered receutly by a noted speculator, who refused to meet certain obligations, on the ground that they re- sulted from transactions that were of the nature of gambling, and were therefore illegal. Many such cases. will destroy all confidence in the old adage about honor among a certain clase of -an~ trastworthy persons. Of the same nature was the defence offered some years since by the owners of the steamer who refuged to pay damages iu the case of ivjuries to passongers. ‘They muiutaived that the parties were traveling on Sunday, which wes illegal, and that therefore they had no slaim, No less ingenious was the plea of atheatre manager in Pennsylvania, when sued for damages by a epectator, who was fiijured by the fall of a trapeze’ per- former. Y{é maintained that the plaintiff was negligent in taking a front seat when such feats were being performed. It is gratifying to be able to record that the wisdom of the Supreme Court’ was’ soffi- cent to determine that this defence was uot valid. 7--- —-—- Frederick the Great said; “As for my plau of not sparing myself, I confess it the saine as befure. The more ope nurses one’s self, the more feeble aud delicate does the body become. My trade requires toil and activity, aod both my budy aud mind must adopt themselves to their daty. It i not that I should live, but it is that I should act. . I have always found my- self the better fur this. method.

If the plearare of an idle flirtation, of whispering pretty compliments, and calling blasbes to pret- ty cheeks, is greater to you now than the preservation of my peace of mind or your honor, we are better apart.

But you are so ecursedly rigid. One might av well have a stone for a wife as you.

She bad been rather a pretty girl two yeare ago, more noticeable, perbaps, for a cestain refinement, an air-ot unmistakable ood style which clang abont her, than or actdal good looks, Now, at foar-and twenty, she was simply a beautiful wo- man—beautiful even without the added charm of birth and cultivation ; and she knew it, knew it as well as did any of the idle gazers on that fashionable lounge, and valued it—well, valacd it rather less than she did the greenish-white pebbles glimmering through the cool water under he. feet, or the fragment of seaweed flap- ping idly to and fro at the will of that water... What was beaaty or grace to her when she was all alone # ‘Two years ago—even now, looking back, it seemed like ten to her—she had been wont rather to fret because her hair was not so curly, her cheeks as piok, and her eyes as blue as other girls'— girls Will used to admire at the theatre or in the Row. She wanted to be pretty then for Will’s sake, just as she wanted to be rich, just as she thanked God for her tal- ents, her good ald name, and the capa- bilties for good she felt within her. ‘They were just so mach to give Will, and for that reason they were precious to ber, not for any other. An orphan, with neither brother or sister, living with a wealthy stepmother, and while enjoying every com- fort and even luxury in thatlady’s house, fully aware that of ber own she had only the prospect of a modest handred a year, and that contingent on her not marrying without Mrs Jerningliam's permission before ber twenty-fifth year, perhaps. no humat being felt more solitary than did Mazie at the hoar we are contemplating her. There she sat thinking, as she did of- ten—mueh too often—of that parting in Ilyde Park under the old archway, She never could quite recollect how she had got home afterward and what came next, though she could remember well tbat, just after Will bad eprung up the bank Master Jack-had leaped on the foremost miss of an ospproaching girls’ school, splashing her with water frou his ail, and ebe (Alazie) bad to go forward and apologize iu her pretty, lady-like manuver fur the accident. She gould remember that trifle, aud also a very red pimple on the very large nuse of a bald-headed old gentleman who sat opposite to her at dinner that day; bus everything else, thought, fceling, and surroundings, seem- ed like one dark blank to her until she found heraelf lying face downward on the floor of her room, with the door balted, aud the moon fooking curiously in on the tempest of sobs and tears which was tear- ing her slight frame with the violeuce of its anguish. He was all she had, ber own, her love, her husband in all but neme, the very heartspring of her existence, and she had torn herself away from bim. No one, not even herself, eoald have told how deeply and passionately she had loved that idle, goud forsnothing young sailor, with his handsome face and. winning manners. She only learned it vow when he was gone from her for ever ; learned it, as we learn most things in this world, too late Are all women sach. contradictions, I wonder? Do all of them know, their winds, or rather their, hearts—for when do mind and heart go together in a wo- man—as little as Mazie Jerningham ? No girl could have appeared more cold, more paasioniess, more unsympathizingly hard than Mies Jerniogham when reason- ing cooly with, and as cooly diamissing ber loving, passionate, half desperate suitor. Now, that pradent, sensible wo- mau of the world was rocking herself to and fro, her eyes blinded with tears, ber face, her hair soaked in the same scalding rain, her handa twisted together, her breath coming in fast, strangling sobs, her white parted lips quivering with hopeless of sheer. heartbroken _ misery. ‘And Lieutenant Travers, where was he 1? Ifis bonny brown eyes had been full of tears—tears which were no disgrace to his manhood —when be. held his hard~ hearted love on his breast, and as he strode away bis brain seemed almost on fire with wrath and despair; but ere he got into Piccadilly.ho meta naval friend, who greeted him with warmth, told him he seedy, aud asked him to have a glues of something at the club; and ‘Travers assented, and had not one glass, but several something whiclr cleared bis head for the moment and give bim artificial spirits, and afterward be dined and went to the French play with the samefriend ; and after thai—Well, I don’tthink we veed follow him any farther. that sbe would send | trees this’ of ‘la joue; it-was bis tara: Moy hort-lived folly, us she had short- y, us she said, that sad little romance ; and it was ended now. If everything else in lif seemed ended too, that could not be helped. It is not the fashion to die of a broken heart nowadays, and she could live it down. cess of “living down” is a w t dom than many a death; cae more that to weep over the victim is the pes er ah that we cau offer. Masie gave no one a chance of oerneee hers; let fall no word which could give a clae to her sorrow. She bad a heavy cold, she said, and so she kept-her room for a couple of days, and the blinds were drawn Soi and a white face and swollen eyes were quite admissible even in Mrs. Jerningham’s opinion. “ But after that she ‘came down stairs, and took wp her usual role of home and social duties, and was the same grace- ful, dignified, intelligent Miss Jerningham as.of old; the same clear-eyed, courts eously cheerful girl to all outward ap» pearance as she had ever been; how changed within none bat herself and God kuew. “People talked a little at first, and won- dered why that charming Lieutenart ‘Travers was.never to be met at the Jer- ninghams’ now. ‘There had certainly been a stroug flirtation between him and Miss Jerningham— though she seemed so proud and animpressible in the usual way—but, afier all, every one knew he had no money, and was always flirting with some one; those sailors were so pro- verbially fickle. And then some one said he had gone to sea again ; aud it was suggested. that. Miss Jerniogham had refused him. . Mrs. Jerninogham, of course, would not dream of such a miser- able parti for her elegant step-daughter, and every one knew how devoted Sir Ed- ward Bartlett had been in that quaiter of late. So wagged the tongues for a few days ; and then the subject was forgotten for some more interesting piece of gossip, aud Mazio was left to herself. Not utterly heartbroken after the last few weeks. ‘There was a great element of justies in this girl’s character ; and before that stern goddess Will’s wratbful specelt- es and despairing threats melted away, and were eoudoned on the score of the provocation which had evoked them. “If he had not loved me, he would not have been so angry,” said Mazie to herself, and the thought brought a sudden warm pulse to the poor bruised: heart, a soft mist over the painful brightness of the brave gray eyes. His last words, too, how could she forget them—sbe, a woman, and a | woman 8o passionately in love? Com-~ ' mon sense and logic would have,told her ‘at once that it was absurd to lay tress on one word more than another, when both | are uttered in a moment of great excite- | ment ; but then girls are seldom noted for | either extra common sense or logic; and | well for usthey are not! for on the strength of that one sentence, “I love you better than any living woman, and I'}l win you | yet some day,” Mazie quietly consecrated her whole life, heart, and soul, present and future, to waiting for that day. Sir | Edward Bartlett was sent away discom- fited, and so were one or two other men of good means and high standing; whoin most girls would have been only too will- ing to adecpt ; and still Mazie Jerningham kept Will’s angry kiss aacred on her lips aguiost the wouder of the world and the grumbling of her stepmother, who, being a kindly, managing woman, Was anxious to see her daughter well established in life. [TO BE CONTINUED | ———-aa The True Meaning of the St. Loui Ticket. The St. Louis platform and nomina- tions are very satisfactory to as on the financial question, with the interpretations which we put apon them, The platform is an elastic platform, suited to any colored spectacles that a man wants to look throngh at if. It is intended to be like the suspendeits which the auctioneer cried in these \words : “Long enough for any man and short enough for any body.” It was intended to suit Demoerats of different States holding diametrically opposite doctrines. For such a purpose we do not see how it could have been better devised. It is like the restaurant in California, where you could have beefsteaks, veal, or ven!~ son, whichever you ordered, but all eat from the round of a yearliog ball. What réecouciles the platform to as, bowever, is the candidates. We have Hendricks, a yery soft paper-money man, and Tildeo, a very hard hard-money man. Now, we take the meaning of the names combined to be: A paper carren- cy redeemable in gold; and each @ car- reney ought to satisfy the most fastidious. ON. Y.

Were he Presi- dent to day, and only» for the rest of Grant’s expiring term, he would. ,econe- mize sixty or seventy millions of dollars, raise the public credit, revive confidence, and make every citizen once more proud of his country. Te people will see in the action of the two Conventions the points of contrast between the two parties. Under Hayes, the present system of plunder would be inevitably perpetuated, because it is the life of the party and. the ‘nourishment of its leaders. Under Tilden, the Rings would be crashed, public stealing woald be soup and reform would be a reality. —N. Y. Sua. ————».——_—— WATCH THEM. At the Republican meeting bere last Satarday, Stephen Douglas in his speech | 8° asserted that “Tilden had been hand ia hand with Tweed in the great swindle io the city of New York.” We are surpris- ed that Mr. Douglas should have made such a bold and reckless assertion. Why, it is a notorious fact—a mutter of un~ doubted history—that Tilden; with the help of O’Coner and a few others, broke up the ‘I'weed Ring and pursued Tweed, backed ap as he was with millions of money stolen from the City of New York, through all the Courts until they landed him io the penitentiary where he belong- ed. ‘Tilden was at the head of this great reform inthe City of New York; and everybody including Mr. Douglas, knows it.

Above both doors are windows, provided with wire-grating inside; duting the warm season the winduws are taken out. The floors are laid with brick, and eyéry room is provided with a stone trough for water. Close to that heunery ia a beet sugar refinery, the steam engine ot which is'used fo feed these troughs with water, and the waste steam is car- ried in copper pipes through the hen- house to heat it iu winter. One part of every room is cnt off for a dark place in which, 3} feet from the floor, are baskets with straw for the hens to lay their eggs in. The second story, 54 feet high, fs diyided into four rooms tor yoang fowls, and a large room in which fowls of all kinds are kept for fajtening in little cages. The great sucecss of that establishment is particularly owing to the cheap food which is used, consisting of the maggots of the bow fly, which ure raised “in the following manner: A ditch was cut out 180 feet long, 9 feet wide, and 3 feet deep, the bottom of which js paved with stone, and on the sides a brick wall is pubup, a little above the ground and well smdothed, to dvoid the escape of the mag- ots) Tat ditch is divided by little rik walls ifite twenty parta and, in- cludiug four feet room’on each side, built over with a shed four feet high, covered with a roof to keep frost and water out. In thetonger side of that building, facing south, are three doors. Every ove of these partitions is filled with layers ot six inches cut rye straw ; two inches un- mixed horse dusg; owe inch rich soil finely sifted; one inch “grains” from breweries ; on that are poared four pounds of blood, or guts and. waste meat. The contents of two and a half ofthese mag- sholes, which do not coat over $4, ing abfficient to feed 6,000 hens, sev- ere thousand of young fowls an] fowls patiop for fattening one day, it is evident that an enormous profit must be derived from that establishment. About. twent days .alier the ditches are filled wit these ingredients they are full. of mag- gots ready to be fed, which is done in the jollowing way; Atdaysbreak a certaip yuantisy of the eontents of the maggot holes (about four ounces to a hen) is brought to the first yard in front of the hen-house and spread over tbe same, when the deor of the first room.of the hen hvase is opeved, and the hens, knowing exgetly the hoor when they are to be fed, ave rusbing-into the yard, where they finish their weal im-balfan -hour. They are ‘then driven back to the house and stay there until the time of the second feeding. . While the . inbabitamis of . the dirstvoom are fed, the third yard is .cov- eved #ith maggots, then the filth, severth, second, fourth, sixthy, and cizht,, which finishes the fiest feeding, of the hens.— A‘fte? that the young fowls are fed in the same way aa the hens. Ila rainy ar snowy weather all fowls are fed in the houses. The second feeding commences pegularly at 1 o'clock, and is done in the pame way ae that in. the morning. ‘The fowlg kept for fattening. are. fed during sheday every two hours, and daring the night four hours, alternately on Maggots, grain, meat, anda pulpy mass ob broken barley, which. is fed with a stopper.* Every division of the horse is thor- ughly cleaned onee a week, and the| floors are covered with a “@wo-iteh layer of coarse saad, mixed ‘with ' fine-grained lime. . “There are ten ‘tmalé and eight fumale Taborers regilarly employed. “Phe hens are kept for ying watil four years old, when they are fattened and sold, while the reOsters are used two years for breeding. . fw the. months.of March avd April the eggs are saved for hatching, during which ‘time the number of roosters, which is enerally one to seventy-five, is iacreased to: oF eMhaaay heuss The hateh- ing is done, wich inoubators, after the vges have been fires pat six duys under a barley hen, iu order to give them. the greasivess which ia essential for the pur- . ‘Lhe re sold exclasi t, when they brig “a hi 3 P by vely in win er’ pricei— them in _Tbey are preserved “solution of iinglass.” Extract from the books of that establish- ment of the year 1858. aol Ce tae aoe 474 50 ve peaaceanmess: 17 i Bebra e Expenses... . ee eat of capital ilivested... 2, .9 ”" death of Tees. os ee Spe tee ttre eee tees eens ‘Materials for ryisjug maggots. ... fog teeding..,..5----+5--, er Prag eggs to Lendes aud 125.¢ neat Page ay Mee RO 4° nee . : wane 7 aN smerrrecrt* ae dozgeu eggs hoaght.2.--.-- 1,750 | s —_— ne a Ae a ae cavercere-eses Saal Soumof expenses....-,--++--- +~dine ebiaet 2 “OIL YOURSELF.” ~ Qyoe upon a time there lived an old Shroom a large house. He bad servants and every thing he wanted, yet be was not happy ; aud when things did not go as he wiehed, he was, cross. At fast bie servants left him. Quite out of temper, he went to a neighbor with the story.of hig diatresses. “Lt seems to me,” said the neighbor, “it would be well for you to oil yourself a little.” Le oil myself?” : “Yes, and I will explain. Some time ago one of the doorsin my house creaked. Nobody; therefore, liked ta.go in or out by it... One day I oiled its binges, aud it has constanly beeu used by everybody siace.;’ “Then yoa thivk I am like your creak ing door,” cried the old gentlowan. “How do you.want me to oil myseli?” “Thavean easy matter,” said the neighbor. “Go home and engage a set vant, and when he does right, praise him. If, on the contrary, he does penemnitg amies, do not be eross ; oil your voice an words with tke vil of love.” ‘Lhe old gentleman weut home, and bo harsh or ugly word was found in his house afterward. Every family should bave a bottle of this precious oil, for every family is liable to have a creaking hinge in the shape of a fretful disposition, a cross teraper, a harsh tone, or a fault-findiog spirit. ‘*How shall we settle the labor qnes- tion 1 exclaimed a member of the Geor- gia Logislatare, iu the midst of his speech. “By all going to work and earning your living honestly !"" thandered a spectator in the gallery, ‘hat sentiment brought down the house. ~__- Fire Works Among the Clouds. The most novel and scientific exhibi- tiou of the age. One of the special and most interesting attractions on the evening of the great Centennial Fourth, were severel mam- moth meteoric and cannoaading balloons sent.ap by Prof. Harris the inventor. — Attached to each balloon is a fuse or trail, some thirty or forty feet long, fur- uished at equal intervals with canoonades, meteoric displays, gcld rain, and floating stars beneath parachates. ‘I'he firing of these at an elevation of miles presented a grand and most intercstiug spectacle, and evoked enthasiastic expressions of delight and rounds of applause from the immense multitude assembled. Prof. Haris has made the subject of. balloon signals a study for years. He has the endorsement of several vary scieatifiz geutlemen in the service of the goveru- meut, rnd recently has recetved a letter of invitation from the chief officer of the signal department at Washington city to cone tothat city and exhibit before a board of officers. By means of fire bal- logus, with pyrotechnical attachments similar to those displayed on the evening of the Fourth of Jaly, be claims to. be able to transmit any desired message by colored fire and actouating bell+, which ean be heard and seen and read for many miles. _— ~~ — Frankness. Be frank with the world. Frankness is the child of houesty and courage. Suy just what you mean to do on every occa~ sion, and take it for granted that you mean to do just what isright. Ifa friend asks you a favor you should grant it, if it is reasonable; if it is uot, tell bim plainly why you cannot. Yoa will wrong ofany kind. Neverdo a wrong thing to make a friend or keep one; the man who requires ) ou to do so is dearly pur- chased, and ata sacrifice. Deal kindly and firmly with all men, and you will find ft the policy which wears the beet. Above all, do not appear to others what you are not. Ifyou haye any fault to find with any one, tell him, not othere, of what you complain. ‘here is no more dangerous experiment than that of un- dertaking to do one thing to a man’s face and another belind his back. We should live, act and speak out of doors, as the phrase is, and say and do what we are willing should be known and read by all men, It is not only best as a matter of priuciple, bat as a watter of policy. A Happy Incident. The New York Tribune remarks that the most inspiring moment of the great national celebration of the Foarth at Philgdelphia was at the close, when Sir Edward Thornton was presented to the people as the representative of Great ritain. A storm ef cheers followed his appearance on the platform. “It was,” prearee popclar recognition of respect vor the mother country, and of epecial welcome to ler representative sach a memorable day. It was “so ‘fresh and cordial that no Ametican present could helpfeeling that it marked the close: of all hostile or even jealous feeling and the beginning of a new era of noble -self-reli- ance and self-respect. ———--—___~ Jefferson's Ten pules. “1.

The growth of sprouts will destroy the valae of the potato in a short time.” The Methodist newspapers speaks ap~ provingly of the fight which Gov. TrLpEn carries on “against corruptionists.” ‘This is the true way of putting it. He did uot auter bigh-sounded diatribes against cor- ruption ia theabstract, or show, by fivebun- dred reasons thatcorruption was an incorect thing that oaght to be reformed as pleas- autly as possible.

It is by this method he will labor to reform the Government, and root out corruption. ‘The corruptionist who have got hold of it will euffer the fate of ihuse who plun- dered jhis city’s treasury, and of those who have been phinderiug along the ca- nals. ‘There are philosophy, practicality, and success in Gov, ‘Titpg)'s method of wurkiug.—N.

THAT COW LAW ia yet a fruitful theme, and in these dry times anything fruitful is a desideratum, There are two parties deeply interested in the cow law, | viz: the owners of that kind of stock, who often put themselves to a deal of trouble in hunting and driving them to their homes, fur they all, | without exception, want their cows to come up to be milked, and to lodge forthe night in the barn ur lot, and get their peck of feed. It is ' always a trouble in the household when “brin- | dle,” “crumple horn,” or “spot,” wearied with the day’s grazing and weakened by the heat, lies | out in some back street or the common, instead | of coming home as usual; and the children, and | sometimes the head of the family, turn out and to hunt and drive her up. The other narty interested in the case is the policemen of the town, but they from a very different motive and with very opposite feel- ings. They are not at all disturbed by the fail- ure of the good cow to go home. It is a matter of money to them that she should not. If they find her lying in the back street, or lane, or the commons, they can make a dollar or two by driving her to the pound,a very light job, with no scortching sun to broil them, and no public eyes to gaze on them in the little “sheep- stealing job” they are engaged in. They are out of nights on the streets: itis their daty to be vut, and they are on the outlook for cowa, and rogues, &c., but more especially for the cows. The Commissioners have made it their daty, and for the performance of general duties they allot them a monthly stipend; but for the cow duty they pay them extra, so that it is assumed that this is the primary work of the policemen. They arethe Commissioners cow boys rather than the town’s policemen. We don’t blame the boys for requiring extra pay for extra mean work to be done; but there is something hard in the operation of this law on the owners of cows, $3 25 is a big thing in this case. Have our “city fathers” no pity on the poor and the widow / Surely they would not collect $3.25 for such an accidental offense, ai atime when money is so scarce, and dishonest officials #0 inaatiate! We pray “deliver us from evil and lead us notinte temptation;” but the Commissioners tempt the policemen to inflict evil on the citizens, and strangely thirk they are doing good service.

As an illustration of the condition of some of these County Coarts ia tlmoldemtiae, the Judge related to me the following exs, traordinary story that occurred to him~ self :— Shortly after my retaru from Europe, about forty years ago, I attended the Western Cirenit of the Supreme Cuvurt, which then-terminated at Annapolis, and remained behind a few daye, for the pur. pose of examining that most interesting place, which is the scene of the firat effec- tive settlement in North America. While engage in these inveetigations, a person called upon mé, and told me jhe had ridden express from Plymouth, to obtain my assistance in a cause which was to be tried in a day or two in the county court at that place. that period, as I have previdusty Observed, not professional men, but magistrates, and equally unable to admiuister law, or to preserve order ; aud the verdicte generally depended more upon the declamatory powers of the lawyers than merits of the The distance wae great—the journey had to be performed on horee- back—the roada were bad, the aecommo- I had a great repagnance to attend these courts under any ciicum- stances ; and, besides, had pressing en~ gagements at home. I therefore declined accepting bis retainer, which was the largest that at that time bad ever beeu tendered to me, and begged to be excused. It the fee, he said, was too small to render it worth my while to go, he woald cheer- fully double it, for money was no object. The cause was one of great importance to his friend, Mr. Jobn Barkine, and of deep iptereat to the whole commanity ; and, as the few lawyers that resided within a hundred miles of the place were engaged on the other side, if I did not ge, his un- fortunate friend would fall a victita to the intrigues andanjuatice of his opponents. In short, be was so urgent, that at last I was prevailed upon to consent, and we set off together to prosecute our journey The ageot, Mr. William Robins (who had the most accurate and eapacious memory of any man I ever met), t entertaining and agreeable He had read a gteat deal, and, having resided many years near Plymouth, knew every body, every place, aud every tradition, Withal, he was somewhat of abumorist. Finding him a person of thie desqriptien,: my curiosity was excited to know who and what he was; and | put the question to him. Tam of the same profession you are, I immediately reined up. “Tf that be the case,’ [ replied, ‘“‘my friend, you must try the coe re yprlt I cannot consent ta gu on, thing that induced me to set. out with you was your assertion that every lawyer, withiv a hundred miles of Plymouth, was retained on the other side.” “Exeuse me sir," he skid; “BE did ™ not say I was a lawyer.” i1O€ “No,” I observed, “you did not; bat you stated that you were of the same profession as myself, which is the same thing.” Not exactly, sir,” be said. “I am a J am Jjloyd’s ageat, aud live on the misfortunes of others ; 80 do you.

Enthusiasm Beyond Description For Zebulon B. Vance. We hasten to go to press this (Satar- day) evening after the most interesting and enthusiastic discussion ever had in the county of Buucombe. At Ll o'clock Gov. Vance was escorted by the Tilden aud Vauce Club to the spacious chapel of the Female College, gallery, and every conceivable place was occupied a eager throng. Judge Séule opened the debate in quite a dignified aud chaste style, and occupied bis time of an hour and a half; but we must coufcas tliat we did not ex- pect sach an entire failare on the part of Judge Settle to meet the issues of the can vase, the time being most exclasively de- | yoted to questions growing out of the late ‘war, which, ip no sense, were relative to \she great questions before the people — The whole point in the effort of Settle | was to rouge the prejadices of the people | growing out of the war, and out of the a-klax organization. We had never before heard the war record of Gov. Vance in its detail, but having heard it, we think that instead of injuring Gov. Vance, it will show him pot only an honest, devoted patriot, but a brave soldier and a@ statesman almost without an eqdal at this time. Judge Settle failed wo show that Gov. Vance had ever dome a single official act during the war, whilé acting ag Govertior, bat what was his daty as a sworn officer, and that bie whole efforig were to discharge bia daty faithfully a8 an officer. We feel ed that the people are now sat- isbed that a man who would make such a model Governor during a period of war eould certaiuJy be trusted in a time of peace. When Gov. Vance came upon the stand, we pever ' witnessed such hearty and almost uncontrollable enthusiasm. Almost.the first, word wuitered by him strack the crowd as thongh some unseen power had electrified them beyond con-~ Governor Vance. was affected almost beyend uiterance gt this greeting cw the people whom he had grown fram boyhood...

For inétance, in a recent editorial it says: “The North is magnanimous,and gen- erous. Lt is, willing, to go far and do much to. lift mp the South and secure peace and pore ot Thie not mere lip service, dtje the testimony of all who are desirous of real and true reconcilia- ‘tion. The Demoerats have a vast amount of bancombe talk always ready to serve theie purpose with the South, Bat of Be service iu behalf of Southern in- terests they have nothing to show. Our claim are based on indisputable facts. We have protected Southern industry ; we have aided Southern railroads; we have elected Southern men to office ; we have bad them in the Cabinet, and whe-ever else they could be made serviceable.” The tcuth of the matter is that there is more “tancombe” iv this ove litle | paragraph from the American than can be found in all the speeches made by Demo- cratic canvassers in one entire political contest. The Republicans may be very “magnanimous and generous,” but we -suy that the people of that party take a very peeuliar way of ehowing it. Evi- dently their definitions of the words mag- nanimity and generosity differ very ma- terially from the construction we have always placed upou them. They foreed upon us an unrighteous war, legislated our property out of our possession, laid waste as fair a country as God’s san has ever ahione upon, burnt our cities and ravaged our Acids, and all because it fs 80 “magnanimous and generous.” All of thia, we suppose, because they are always “willing to go far and do much to lift op the Sonth and secure peace and harmony.” And to show. how willing they always are, the war was followed by every species ' of degradation which oue white man could offer to another. Ignorant freedmen were put in office over us, unprincipled white ‘men succeeded to positious of trust and | profit, whole States were wrecked to sat- | isfy the greed of unprincipled adventurers, and worse than all, some of the best men in the land were imprisoned in ‘o thaome cella, aud with common felons, were tied up by the thumbs and subjected to in-~ dignities such as are but seldom offered to | conwberog thieves. ‘I'bis was another of lthe resulig of the “maguanimous aud | | generous” feelings felt by the victors fur the vanqaished. If these arc the “claims” 'of the Republican party spoken of by the American, they certuiuly are “based ou indieputable facts.” As far as the “protection to Southern industry” is concerned, it is only neces~ sary to point to the iniquitous protective tariff now iv force, which has bad so much to do with the general prostration of busi- uess and stagnation of industries through- out the entire couvtry, a tariff which has made war upon Southern developments and especially on Southern agricaltare and which was enacted and maintained in the interest of the New England manu- facturers. ‘The aid to Southern rail roade bas come through the ambition of North- ern men, who bave invested their mouey for their owo benefit and not for that of the people in sections throagh which the road might pass. Itis not the fashion now-a-days for a man to spend his money for the benefit of steangers. Those who have put their capital iuto such invest- ments have done so with the expectation of seeing it fractify for their own iudividual benefit, As the “Soathern men” who have been “elected to office’ and have been bad “in the Cabinet,” there is not one who has either eerved fu the Federal army or who, repudiated by the honest men of the South, bas made as blush to thiik that he was ever known south of Mason and Dixon's fine. We do not quarrel with 4 man because of his political sentiments, nor do we arro- gate to ourselves the right to question his motives; but we let bis record tell. We are well aware of the fact that the fabric of a Republican government can be based upon no surer political foundation than (wo strong opposing parties, of almost ual strength, but we dao like to see 9 Hitle téal maguanimity and a little genuine genarsity displayed by the one toward the other. Let a roan make a good, hon- est and capuble official, of jf be lacks capabificy; let him try to do right, and he will sarely receive the plandits of’ those who opposed, as well as of those who aided bis election. So should it be with ythe two great parties whigh now ¢tayd 0 to each other in battle array, gud ether peace and prosperity shell come, or gloom, and disaster still continue to lower, it will not be hecagse Tilden and Hendricks are Democrats or Hayes and Wheeler Repablicays.— Will.

From the Richmond Whig. In the very pointed speech whieh Gov. Tilden made in Albany the night the news of his nomination reached that city, to a vast concourse of her citizens calling ou him, after picturing this vast country stretching from ocean to ocean, with a fertile soil, with every variety of climate and productiqn, with natural and artificial modes of travel and transportation un- surpassed, with all the arts and indus- tries of an older civilization, and bound- less nataral wealth cf a virgin continent, ‘we ought to be the happiest and most contented people on the globe.” Hetben turned and asked: “What is our actual condition: ? All basiness depressed —every industry languishing — labor without emptoyment, and the wolf at the door of every home in the land, gaunt and hungry.” Invbia own very clear way, he states the reasons that in the 11 years since the war the earnings of labor and in- come of capital have been consumed aod wasted in governmental expendi- tures. Believing with Gov. Tilden that it is in this vast and wasteful extravagance and robbery of the public funds, together with the unequal fiscal operationa of that Mor- rill tariff system, which we propose to show is another of the most prominent causes of all of the suffering which the panic has inflicted on this land since September, 1874, to this present hoar. ‘The Treasury of the United States re~ ccived from all sources from Jane 30, 1361, to Jane 30, 1874, inclusive, with the loans and treasury notes excluded from this estimate ; Customs Internal revenue Direct tax Publie lands Miscellaneons Premiug on sales (gold) $1,973,710,367 1,956 ,.323,725 14,810,189 22.151,958 236,084,982 192,557,117 $4,395 638,341 Received from tariff and in- ternal revenue for fiscal year ending 30th June, 1875, (estimated) $307 .000,000 Fer 30 June '76, estimat’d 297,000,000 Aggregating 4,999,638,341 Debt now saddled on coun- try, whieh amount was spent in addition 2,240,000,000 Making the aggregate, 7,230,638,341 of expenditure, inclusive afahe expenditure of the —— year which ended The ge annual expen. diwure for the ten years (yieceding the war was -aboat = the ten years eee expen- diture since the war Wes ended is upwards of Or for ten years Of this sum the annual average on account of the war debt ia 6 per cent. on 1,800 millions Sioking fund 1 per cent.

In other words, an expenditare for the civil service of Government alone un- der the Radical or Republican rule an. uually of mere than 300 per cent. Who can doubt that Great Reformer, who ne oe ly in New York ex ares Would adminixer the Na- tional Government on 75 per cent, . ju- crease on the average expenditure be- forethe war. Allowing the war expen- »es to remain the same as under the Re- pepiiees sale, there would be under Mr. ea an annual saving » pe y of over $120,000, m, $400,000,000. aL Sy beatin io t w coat now thrilling the bosoms of forty~ five millions of people on this conti- nent ? On the other hand, the operations of the t tariff on the revenue of the people, as denounced by the St. Lonis form, is that in order to raise $300,- So0,e0 for the public treasury, — i a duty of 50 per cent. on the im- poten ebe teosehiat of $600,000, the con-~ sumer has to pay 50 per cent on the $1,~ 800,000,000 of manufactures of a domes- tie product. In other words, a bounty of that per centage on this vast amount of domestic man annually consumed io this country by the consuming class, which, in the main, are the laboiing population, who pay to the maaoufactaring cxpitalists $900,000,000 bounty, and ander this system have paid m~re than $9,000,000,~ 000, or four times the amoant of the na- tional debt. Is it to be wondered at, the vast dis- tress which prevails among the working classes, where a system like this in the last sixteen years has been building up the most gigartie wealth side by side with the most deplorable poverty which bas ever been seen—when thirty-five men at the North have an aggregate wealth greater than the three million of people who emerged from the Revolu- tion, In view of this stapendous robbery by the Radical party, we say to the Ameri- can e again— “Arise, ye Goths, and vent your ire.” -__—o— /One of the witnesses who appeared be- fore the House Vommittee ou Louisiana Affairs was names Furgeson, and bis tes- timony, 80 fir as it went, was very in- teresting, as he had possessed peculiar House ander Brother-in-law Casey. Fur- guson told a good deal, and was to tell more in New Orleans; but he fuiled to put in an appearance there, and, like Billy Lackaday’s father, has kept in the back~ ground and never since been heard from.

Whether Orvil Grant, Robeson, the other Grant, or any other member of the Grant Ring at Washington was a “silent partoer” in that concern, there is no evidence toshow. But the placiag Robeson cf £220,000 of pablic money im and that concera, after failore of the main bouse| ) in America, to be used in, carrying their general indebtedoess, certainly shows a1e- markable interest in the fortanes| of Jay Cooke & Co., by persons bigh ia the con- fidence of the Executive. The act was a deliberate violation of the law; a moustrous and criminal breach of public trust; a “high crime and misde~ mesnur"™ of the most fiygrant character. ‘The impeachment and dismissal of Robe- sov from all public service or trust is the least that would satiefy the demaod of justice. oe Kirk, Hotpen, Pearson, SetTtTLe.— On the 20:h July, 1870, Governor Hol- den wrote to President Grant informing him of the condition of affairs in North Carolina, and predicting that Chief Jus- tice Pearson would substantially sustain him. On 23d July, Governor Holden telegraphed to Washington as follows : “Habeas Corpus jast decided. Chief Justice Pearson substantially sustains fere.”’ AND PEARSON CONVICTS SETTLE. The Chief Justice in case of Exparte Kerr and others, after deciding that “the power of the Judiciary was exhausted,” thus convicis Captain Settleand his other brother Justices as follows. “He says: “It is gratifying to be able to say that the other Justices have been in anreserved conference with me, and that all concur in these Habeas Corpus proceedings." And thus stands the record as to the foreign consul, as Blaine proposed to have Mulligan appointed, is a question which | reons outside of official circles would | find it difficult to answer. Bat bis disap- pearance is mysterious, and suggests re- collections of other mysterious disappear- ances under similar circumstances. For instance, the House Committee on Indian Affairs, in the course of its lavestigations, | had occasion to summon one John H.| Smoot, who had been a clerk in the! Indian Office for ten jor twelve years. Smuvot testified that be bad resigned bis lace in the finance division of the Indian ureaa because he was unjustly, ax he thought, transferred to the Pension Office. Upon being tioned as to his reasons for the trausfer, be testified that it was made because he refused, at the solicita~ tion of Congressman Shanks and the late Indian Commissioner, the Rev. E. P. Smith, to falsify the records of the Inte- tior Department and Indian Bureau for a political purpose. Having resigned, he says he looked over the whole transac« tion, and considering that he had been injured, proceeded to fortify himself with | facts, after which he made charges in| writing against Secretary Delano and Commissioner Smith. ‘I'he result of this bold move was an earnest invitation from | Commissioner. Smith to withdraw bis | resignation; and upon doimg so his pay | was restored, though he did no service for the Government. About this time an investigation into the affairs of the Indian Boreau was set on foot, and Smoot was ordered away from. Wasbiogtin, A. H. Wilder, Smith’s tavorite cantractor, giv< iog him $300 when he went away, with- out any explanation other than that he was to leave the city immediately. This was in May, 1874, and until February, 1875, be coutinued to receive a salary from the Interior Department, though he testified that from Jaly 16, 1874, aatil Febroary of the following year he did not do asingle day’s work. ‘I'he methods of the preeent Administration are peculiar, and it requires a great deal of money to run the Government as it is now conduct- ed. It is therefore no wonder that, with an election approaching, the Hayes and Wheeler men in the Senate resist all the measures of retrenchment proposed by the Tilden men ia the House.—N. Y.

Here is a proof of good aense and taste on the = of Mr. Garner’s friends, “Sa- ted with the pompous follics of this world, of whieh I huve had en uncommon share, I desire to have no posthnmons dieplay,” wrote the celebrated Lord Chesterfield, and ordered his body to be buried in the nearest graveyard, and his funeral ex- penses to be limited to a gmall sum. His example had great effect in England in patting down foolish funeral pomp. In thia country, it is among people who are not rich that funeral folly is carried to its highest pitch. od ph who can searealy see a month's food ahead, will spend what is to them a little fortune at a fangral, and earned eavings of friends are pended in a drearyprocession of hacks toa distant cemetery, “What possible croiag tan there be between. dria & glass of wine, and that fellow's bealth ?" asked-a- man when urged tion can there be to the dead in @ long retinue of hacks at 810 apiece filled with mourners, whose grief is nut always as avit ought to be, following him Diseonnes if want = give proof of affeetion bereavement, Jet them sebseribe to help widow or children, if they need aid, and not to the hack pro- and undertaker, who now hi tt. —N.

The Goldsboro Messenger, of July 27, tells this pitable shameful story which, for hamanity’s sake, we wish we could disbelieve; ‘An ineident happened here Wedoeaday juss after Gov. Brogden bad received the nomination for congress. The governor met West Brogden, a poor, idiotie brother of Lis, clad in rage and barefooted. Mr. Jesse Grant called the governor's attention to the @ilapidated drees of his poor brother, and suggested that as he (Brogden) bad been distribu- ting hia money liberally among his negro manipulators, be might give his barefoot- ed brother a pair of shoes. ‘I'he governor acting upon the suggestion gave his | brother the pitiful aum of fifty eents. At this several bystanders were indignant, and thereupon Riehard A. Newsome and Jesse Grant furnished West with the West will hardly vote for the governor,” —— — +a poe —— ee. THOMAS SETTLE. The Philadelphia Times, an indepen- dent paper, thus speaks of the Hoforable Thomas Settle : ‘Our old friend Settle tarns up once more as candidate for Governor in North Carolina, having been nominated by the Republican Convention at Raleigh on Wednesday. Settle has a way of tarn- ing up. He turned ap first as an origi- val secessionist, and did as much as any~ body else to take North Carolioa ous of the Union. During the war be tarned Up at various peiats uoder cireumstances not always creditable, and when the war ended he turned up as a devoted Union man. He presided over the Convention in this erty that nominated Grant for @ second term, aud of course hé got a good appointment as his reward, Bat some how be didu’t seem to be as mach pre- ciated at home as be had been, for sometime past we have not heard much of Settle. He now comes up, smiling as ever, and hopes to be made Governor of the old North State. It is possible that he will be, it Mr. Grant gets anew At- torney General meanwhile, who will start up the outrage mill that Williams and Settle ran so successfully and so regard- less of expense. They carry elections in North Carolina by means of Deputy Marsbale, and as Settle has bad experi- ence in that way he is the man to man age the campaign.

The current of precious metals which has flowed out of our country for the eleven years from July 1, 1865, to June 30, 1876, averaging nearly $75 000,000 a year, Was 000,000 in the whole period, of which $617,000,000 were the product of our own mines. To amass the requisite quantity, by inter- cepting from the current flowing out of the conntry, and by acquiring from the stocks which exist abroad without disturbing the equilibrium of foreign money markets, is a result to be easily worked out by practical knowledge and judginent. With respect to whatever surplus of legal tenders the wants of business may fail to keep in wae, and which, in order to save interest, will be returned for redemption, they ean eith- er be paid or they can be funded. Whether they continue as currency, or be absorbed into the vast mass of securities held as investments, is merely a question of the rate of interest the draw. Even if they were to remain in their present form, and the Government were to agree to pay on them a rate of interest, making them desirable as investments, they would cease to circulate and take their with government, State, mun , and t corporate and pri- vate bonda, of which thousands of millions ex- iats among us. In the perfect ease with which they can be changed from carrency into invest- ments lies the on! danger to be guarded against in the adoption of general megsures intended to remove aclearly ascertained surplus; that is, the withdrawal of any which are a permanent excess beyond the wants of business, Even more mischievous would be any measure which pen ~ pablic neomneetiar with the fear of apprehended scarcity.

Mr. Davis did not vote for Mayor last election. He did no special electioneering. He took no more part than any other quiet citizen who went to the polls and put in his ticket. He certainly had a right not to vote for Mayor, or to put in a ticket of his own making, more especially as there was no regularly authorized ticket resented to the conservatives. bea no public meeting called or held to There was a division among the conservatives themselves, one party ad- hering to Mr. Haughton for Mayor, an the other party adhering to Stewart. The tick- és were printed for each party, and they were going into a triangular fight on Mon- day morning, which would certainly have resulted in the defeat of both Thus it stood at 9 o'clock Saturday night. About that time three gentlemen met at Mock’s store, one from each of these two parties and one belonging to neither. These three men un- dertook to form a compromise ticket—-print- ed it that night and presented it at the polls Monday morning. The voters of town had no hand in forming it. Mr. Davis had taken no part in the wrangle between these two conservative —— and had none in fonn- ing any ticket. The compromise ticket was binding on no one but the framers of it. How then, can any man be blamed for rejecting it as a whole orin part! And yet he has been denounced for it. Country | have been told that he is responsible for the election of a radical Mayor. This report was freely cir- culated in Franklin township and it is believed caused Mr. Davis’ defeat there. A more ungrounded fabrication could not be made. A more unjust proceeding could hardly be enacted by men who would ra- ther do right than wrong. But there is still another chapter: Not content with the above his enemies broke out at the Hatter’s Shop on Saturday, and through the oratorical powers of David Bar- ringer, published that Mr. Davis, as chair- man of the Board of Superintendents of Common Schools for Rowan, prior to the year 1870, had failed to account for some twelve or fifteen hundred dollars of school funds placed in his hands, We are author- form a ticket. . izetl to say this is false.

(Signed) “ J. 8. McCUBBINS, “Tr. of Rowan Co.” This is all regular, and there is no evidence of fraad. If any, it must be sought else- where. Mr. Davis’ books are open for in- spection, and all other sources of informa- tion free to the public. The personal ridicule and contumely di- rected against Mr. Davis is very small trash |in the balance. It is nothing new and no- | thing worth. His being a candidate gives | @ limited license to his adversaries who of course must be allowed to exercise it to the “ best of their skill and ability,” and accord- ing to their own tastes and instincts. But it is no disgrace to be made the subject of sneers, contempt, and abuse. and personal shame can only come by one’s own words or actions. The best men in ey- ery community are generally the “ best a- bused.” If the subject of this paragraph be judged by this rule he is high above his neighbors.

That in this centennial ear of our existence, we invite all patriots w ignore all dead issues, to disregard the prejudices engendered by the past events, | to unite with ue in the effort to restore aconstitutional, honest, economical and administration of the government, and thus promote the general welfare and bappiness of the country. Resolved, 2. That we earnestly and cor- dially recommend the adoption, by the ple, of the amendments to the Consti- tation proposed by the Convention of 1875, vapd thus largely reduce the expenditures of our State avd county governments and simplity their administration, so that we may be enabled td” establish a thorough id enlarged system of public schools for the benefit of all the citizens of the State. Resolved, 3. That notwithstanding our mpeated disappointments and impovished econdition, we still cherish the North Car. olina project so long labored for by More- bead, Saunders, Fisher, Wm. H.

Gold and silver are the teal standard of- values, and our national currency will'net bea perfect medium of exchange until it shall be convertible at the pleasure of the holders. As I have heretofore said no one desires a return to specie payments more earpesily than I do; but I do not believe that it will or can be reached in harmony with the in- terests of the people by artificial measures for the contraction of ‘the sufrency, any more than I believe thac wealth. or per- manent prosperity can be ereated by an inflation of the curreucy. The laws of finance cannot be disregarded with im- punity. The financial policy of the Gow ernment, if, indeed, it deserves the name of policy at all has beeu disregarded of those laws, and therefore hasdisturbed commer- cial aud business confidence, gs well as hindered a ruturn to specie payments. | One featare of that policy wae the resamp tion clause of the act of 1875, which bas embarrassed the country by the anticipa- tion of a compulsory resumption for which no preparation has Leen made, and with- oat any assurance that would be practi- cable, ‘The repeal of that clause is ne- cessary thatthe natural operation of finan- cial Jaws may be restored, that the busi- ness of the country may be relieved from its distarbing and depressing influence, and that a return to specie paymentaanay be facilitated by the eubstitution of wiser and more prudent legislation, which shall mainly rely on a judicious system of pub- lic economies and official retrenchments, and above all on the promotion of pros- perity in all the industries of the people. 1 do not understand the repeal of the resumption claase of the act of 1875 to be a backward step in our return to specie payments, but tbe recovery of a false step; and although the repeal may, for a time, be preventedyyet the determination of the Democratic party on this subject has now been distinctly declared. There should be vo hindrances put in the way of a re- turn to specie payments. “As sach a hiudrance,” says the platform of the St. Louis Convention, “we denounce tha re- sumption clause of the act of 1875, and de- mand its repeal.’ I thoronghly believe that by pa economy, by official retrencbwents, an a ‘ by aioe Aacass enabling us to accumulate presented Uy oes Boatwell, in behalf the précious metals, resumption at an | of the majority of the Missiesippi Inves- early period is possible, without prodac.. tigating Committee, reachea the conclu- ing an “artificial searcity of carrency”’ OF gion that the present Legislature of Mis-~ disturbing public or commercial credit ; | sissippi was elected by fraud and intimi- and that these reforms, together with thie | oPP ; J restoration of pare government, will re- | dation, and is, therefore, not a legal body. store general confidence, encourage the, The resignation of Gov.

There is noth- ing which indicates that thie rale was’ violated op the trial. The defendant sends up for our consideration the following exceptions : 1, To evidence that the deceased had money, ront fixing the defendant with knowledge of it. The deceased was the mother of the defen- dant’s wife, who, a short time before the homi- cide, was threatening to leave the defendant aml go to her mother if he did not provide bet- ter for her. He replied he would provide better in about a fortnight. He then had no money, and left home saying he was going to hunt work. He did not return home until the ty the just and powerfal guardian of the rights and safety of all.

Mrs. Roney, of this county, had a child five or six years old, that had been sick with sore throat several weeks, and one day last week it seemed to die. It had no pulse so far as persons present could discover. It was laid out for dead and a coffin made. ‘The persons setting up with the corpse, grew sleepy and were nodding when suddenly the child threw. aside its grave clothes, got up from the table where it, had been laid, and went tothe cup-board and got something to eat. When the parties, who came there to set up, woke up they found, to their astonishment, the child standing at the cupsboard door munching food, ‘The astonishment of the people present can be better imagined than described. It was eating 4 piece of bread, and, aa soon as it saw that some one was awake, it called loudly for milk. Such was the superstition »that. no one would, for some time, touch orgo near the child. The mother came in and after some hesitancy caught her hand, aud the electricity seemed to restore her courage and convince her that it was no ghost. After eating, it was placed, io .bed. It seems that this sudden .exhibition of strength was a freak of nature, for in four hours after, the child died, indeed, This is noidle sensation, but vouched for b the best citizens of the heighbor > several of whom were present. If we had been iuterested’ in’ the ehild we should have been afraid to bury it at all uutil mortifieation took place. There is no telling how much latent life there is ia a child.—Morganton Blade.

V. “John,” said Mrs. Stubbs to her husband, Monday after dinner, “I have some shopping to do this afternoon and would like for you to stay at home and take care of the baby.” Mr. Stubbs would much sooner she had ask- ed him to tunnel the Pilot Mountain, but when he saw a frown gathering on her brow, he told her that he would stay. Putting on her bonnet, and telling Mr. Stubbs that she would not be gone more than an hour at the farthest, she started but did not proceed far before she met Mrs. Gab, who was on her way home from the milliner’s, and half an hour was spent in talking over the late fashions. Leaving Mrs, Gab, she proceeded on her way and met Mrs.Gossip, who it took just one hour to tell herall the Jatest news. Arriving at the store another hour was consumed in selecting and purchasing a calico dress patern and a card of buttons, During her absence Mr. Stubbs’ patience was sorely tried; for no sooner had she left the house than the baby let in to yelling, and all that poor Stubbs could do would not pacify it. He hammered the bottoms out of two tin pans try- ing to make music for it, but that only frighten- ed the baby and made it yell the more. Then he got the sugar bowl and fed it sugar until it had an attack of colic, which incraesed they ell- ing. Getting the paregoric, he undertook to administer a dose of that soothing liquid, but just as he was putting thespoon to the baby’s mouth, it threw up its hands, and striking the "spoon, knocked the contents into its eyes, and then the yelling became terrific. Not knowing what he should do, Mr Stubbs concluded to take the baby over to one of his neighbors and get them to quiet it for him, but just as he got ready to start Mrs, Stubbs return- ed,—after an absence of two hours and a half,— and snatehing up the baby soon had it quiet; then turning to Mr. Stubbs she told him it was a shame that ‘ie couldn’t take care of the baby a few minutes while shedid a little shopping. Mr. Stubbs made no reply, but as he wended his way to the tinner’s with two bottomless. pans, he made a solemn vow to himselfthat he would never take care of the baby again. —_——_—~—>e THIEVES BY INSTINUT. We clip the following from the New York Herald : “It is reported that Mr. Nuon, of Chi- cago, asked Mr Blaine to use his influs ence with General Grant for some parpose or the other. Mr. Blaine, according te the story, replied in these terms :—] have no influence with the present admiu- istration. No man who ia not a thief by instinct.” This is the most serious con. demuation ever passed upon Gravt.

ACCIDENT FROM A PISTOL. Warning to Those Who Carry Concealed Weapons. Night before last a very respectable | young colored man, by thenameof W. H. Webb, a barber in the employ of Scott Brown on Fayetteville street, met hia death by the accidental discharge of a pistol, in the following manner: From the evidence adduced by the coroner's jary at the inqaest it appears that Webb had called at the house of Sampson Brown, a colored man, living on Davie street near the old Fair Ground, to see a girl by the name of Polly Wal- ker, and, after remaining till bed time, ou rising from his seat to leave for home, a pistol (a navy revolver) fell from his pocket to the hearth and fired, the ball taking effect iu and entering the body of Webb in his right side. He sat down immediately as if nothing had happened, bat in a few minutes commenced growing faint, and even before preparations could be made to serid for a physician be had breathed his last. Yesterday the coroner's jury waa sum; moned, who, after viewing the body of the deceased, rendered a verdict in accor- dance with the facts us above stated. The deceased had come from Wiseton to Raleigh a few months ago, and had made many friends among the cvlored people of this place daring his short stay among them, —News. [We learn from a gentleman of Fors sytbe co., who kuew Webb while there, that he was a bad man; that while wait< ing on Mr. J. G. Lash, he stole several articles of property frou his employer, among the rest a pistol, probably the very oae by which he lost his life. ] ———~~ + A New Bank President.—The stock- holders of the Merchants’ and Farmers’ National Bank have elected Dr. J.

See es Capt. W. H. Crawrorp,—It is now pretty well settled that this gentleman will be the Senatorial Candidate presented by Rowan for the acceptance of Davie. He will go before that County with a fall endorsement, and will doubtless be ac- cepted ; for we suppose there is nosuchop- position to him as will warrant any other conclusion. Individuals there, as bere, may have preferred some one else; bat they will gracefully yield to the majority when no sacrifice of principle is required. Mr. C, haa had geome experience as a legis- latar, and will doubtless do the best in bis power.

A. Davis bas served the Coun ty of Rowan as a Magistrate, a member of the Committee of Finance, or a Com- missioner, for about 38 years, with an intermission of only one year daring the whole time. We suppose there is not another such case in the County. Per- haps there is not one in the whole history of the County. Perhaps there is not such another case in the State. Ool. Thomas Allison, of Iredell, and the late John Phifer, of Carbarrus, served long and faithfully in their respective counties; and we believe B. Bailey, and Lemuel Bing- ham, of Davie, and Alfred [argrave, of Davidson, have render similar service for a long term of yeara. very doubtfal if any one of them has ox- celled Mr. Davis ejthey in the number of years or the character of the service ren- dered, Some of them have served in the Legislature at various times, and in this respect oceupied positions which he has not. But like them, he has been a man upon whom mueb public work has fallen, and be has performed it with a prompt- ness, ability and faithfuluess equal to his compeers in any county ofany State. No one knows this better than thoss whose lotit bas been to aet with him, and they are the men who most heartily proclaim his worth. He belongs to an old school af patriots now passing away.

The horses employed were decorated with U. 8. flags. The national emblem was streaming from our tall pole and numerous private resi- dences. The streets were thronged with a moving mass of people whose faces were beaming with pleasure. unusual end highly interesting, and whel- The scene was ly complimentary to Judge Fowle, who came to address our people on the great political issues now engrossing the public mind. The speaking was announced to be held at Meroney’s Hall aud to commence at 8} o'clock. Long before that time the crowd pressed towards the Hall, so that when the hour and the speaker arrived it was packed. The speaker's entrance was greeted with applause. We will not attempt to follow the learn- ed Judge through bis truly able and argumentative speech. It partook strongly of the character of bis owa miad, habit- ually engaged on law and coustitational questions. He review the history of the Republicaa party, beginuing with that first annavciation of their's in de- claring that the Constitution of the United | States “wae a compact with the devil and an agreement with hell.” He traced them thé step by step up to the war and its close, shuwing their anfaithfuloess to the great charter of liberty; and then exhibit- ed the horrid deeds perpetrated by them since, beginning with the marder of Mrs. Sarratt, avd continued in ten thousand | instances of eruel wrong and injustice |against the Southern people, and espe- ‘cially against the people of North Caro- lina, through the instramentality of a base Governor and a debased judiciary. It was an impressive speech, We re- gret it was not heard by a larger number. That portion refering to the unconstita- tional “Civil Rights Bill,” as it is called, possessed, if any, a more general interest to the public, and should be heard by all. The wicked designs which gave rise to that measure were duly commented on by the Judge, and the practical effects of it as illuttrated by the conduct of white radical leaders in mixing with pegroea on terms of exact equality, enabled the Judge to present to his audience a picture at once ridiculous, disgusting and abhor- rent, At the conclusion of his speech a nam- ber of citigens went upon the stage to shake hands with the orator. He spent the night here and went on his way next morning to ‘Troutman’s depot where he was to speak ‘l'uesday. LATTEST NEWS, Congress adjoyrued, gine dig, on the }dth.

The bridges of the Couaty bave also re- ceived prompt und proper attention, and with a very few exceptions are in good condition. These facts, then, do sustain Mr. CRAW rorp's declaration in respect to County affairs. Avd more than that, it proves having the services of a competent and faithful Board of Commissioners to mao- age ber affairs. Here is a condition over which the people may rejo‘ce, for every tax payer is interested iu it. Let them not forget to bestow the merited ap- plause — “Well done, good and faithful servants.” We confess to cherishing a deal of old fogyism, and if we had our way about it, we would keep this Board in office just as long as they are willing to do the work. Offices were mace by the people | for the performance of their work—uot for the benef of the men who fill them. We vever could see any good in turning out a faithful man and putting in a new hand. The St. Louie Couventiou, we are glad to see, declared against the practice of turn | ing out honest and faithful men on party grounds alone, and we believe it is wrong on any grounds at all. No farmer swaps off a good horse or exchanges a good work hand without ‘There is neither seusc nor reaeon ia turo- first-rate reasons for ir, | ing out honest, capable aud faithful men and putting in those who have no exper- ience and uo proof of fitness. It is bad enough to do it when it must be done from necessity. It requires years for a Board to become thoroughly acquainted with the duties they must perform. We can think of nothing that would be likely | to result in more mischief to a UCounry | than to change her Board of Commission- | ers every year. She would soon have confusion. ————-—___—— “Nothing,” says the Loudon Times, ‘is more remarkable in the political life of the United States than the amenability to party discipline displayed by almost all sorts and conditions of public men.” This is very true, bat what is more remarkable is the subjugation of the private citizen to his party. Itis the strongest of sxper- stitions, and most men would abandon their wives or renounce their church soou- er tban abaadon their party.—N. Y. Sun. There is much truth in this short para- graph which should engage the serious reflection of the private citizen.

When men reach the point of being more anxious for the success of their party than for the pro- motion of truth and good govern~ ment, they have enslaved themselves. Sach is undoubtedly the condition of the intelligent portion of the republican masses, who ia the face of the most stu- pendons abuses and corruptione perpetra- ted by the party in power, under the weight of which the country is groaning, do yet coolly and deliberately persist iu supporting and advoeatiig that party. They have made themeelves the elaves— the tools—of party, and instead of being the country's strength and defence, Lave become her enemies. All party slave, of whatever party, constitute an element of danger to the country’s welfare and life itself. ————_-—>o—————_— VANCE AND SETTLE’S APPOINTMENTS. Statesville, Iredell county, August 11.

The allegation is not true, I did not vote for either Mayor Broadfield or Commissioner Clarke, both Republicans ; but I did vote for the seven conservatives who were elected on the Board of Town Commissioners. I did not use or attempt to use, directly or indirectly, any effort to elect or defeat any person voted for at that elee- tion, bat went to the polls and quietly voted as a frec man for whom I desired to support. I, with the rest of the Commissioners (but I most of all) am blamed for continuing John Bringle, a republican, as, overseer of the Poor House. 1 have not used any effort to remove Mr. Bringle on account of his politics for the reason that, in my experience of the last fifteen years we have found him honest, efficient, attentive and useful in his sition, and I do not believe a better man for the place can be found, who will better, if as well, fill his place for the price he is paid, or for a much higher salary. The complaint against Mr. Bringle by those who raise this clamor is his a and that he hauled the paupers to the polls to vote the radical ticket. It is true Mr. Bringle is a professed republican, but takes no active part in politics, and as to hauling the paupers to the polls, I never knew this done but once, and that was by a zealous radical without the knowledge or consent of the Board. Bringle had no hand in it as far as my knowledge extends. This clamor, however, may cease, as Mr. Bringle has vol- untarily tendered his resignation, and all who are so anxious for his place may file their application with Mr. Woodson, Clerk of the Board, and the man who in my judg- ment is best qualified to serve the County in this position will get my vote. And now I beg leave to say to all to whose hands this card shall come, that if they re- eat these charges without first examining into the truth of such allegations they must be content with being charged with “ bear- ing false witness against their neighbor.” ‘And that there may be no doubt about the position I occupy, I will put my political confession of faith on record, and if those who are so fond of calling my loyalty to the conservative party in question will sub- scribe to as good a declaration of political rinciples as mine, and stick to it as I shall, there will be no need to charge any one with heresy or inconsistency. If spared to vote in November, it is my fixed purpose to do all I can consistently with my age, to secure the election ot Tm.pEN and HeEnNpRicks, the nominees of the St. Louis convention; and of Wo. M. Rossrnys, the nominee of the Tay- Jorsville convention; and the nominees of the State conservative convention, held in Raleigh, June 15th, 1876, headed by Zs. B. Vance, the glorious leader ot Reform in N. Carolina; and lastly, the nominees of the County convention which is to be held in Salisbury the last Saturday in August, inst., whether they be personal friends or foes. August 10, 1876. D, A. DAVIS. READ THIS. Ar the request of D. A. Davis, Esq., we make the following statement in reference to his management of the School Fund for Rowan County, after having carefully ex- amined his Books. Mr. Davis made this request of us from the fact that a report is now actively circu- lated which he considers as detrimental to himself, and which report he claims is not founded on facts. According to his Books he took charge ot the School Fund in the year 1855, and we have examined his accounts from that year until after the close of the war, and up to the time of his settlement with the County Treasurer. We took up each year’s account and carefully examined his annual and semi- annual balances, and we could find no error | whatever, and in our opinion his Books have ‘been kept in the most business-like and complete manner, and without any compli- cation whetever. As to the character of the currency, that which was received before and during the war, we find that but a small amount of funds was in his hands at the beginning of the war, and that was exhausted ore there was any depreciation of Bank bills, or but little Confederate currency had been re- ceived by him for school purposes ; and that: the amount in his hands at the close of the war and which he paid over ta the Treasur- er, was such currency and money as was cur- rent in the Country at the time he received it, and that no ante-war money was in his ssion at the close of the war, nor any current funds except a few hundred dollars which he in his wisdom managed to save by exchanging Confederate enrrency for curren- cy of the United States, more commonly called “ Greenbacks,” which was in our opinion an actual saving to the County in the interest of public schools. In our opinion there is no reasonable grounds for complaint as to his management of the funds which came into his hands, A. J. MOCK, B. F. ROGERS, Salisbury, Aug. 11,1876. H. M.

He showed great want of judgment in the selection of his subject, to get up before an au- diance, § of which was democratic, and try to arouse the old war feeling was the last thing for him to do. He had no sympathetic hearers on the subject. All together his speech was a failure, nothing new, nothing but the same old harrange. Vance, (though his voice was weakened from continual speaking,) replied in his gentlemanly and masterly way, utterly demolishing the attempt of his adversary to taint the minds of the people with the venom of black radicalism and the beggardly attempt to arouse the feelings of the people against his wnimpeachable warrecord Settle showed in his face that he was used up, he sat like one at a funeral, his fore finger in his muuth, -hia eyes set, gazing steadily at the rough planks that composed the rostrum Our attention was so frequently call- ed to his troubled look, that we felt ander obli- gations to ‘our numorous readers to sketch him.

He rejoices to Know that many of hia boyhood days are gone by; and hopes that when he becomes a man, he will make a fair show of his wit, wisdom, and energies, and stand high in the sight of his fellow menu. This, too, is a point that might be very easily attsin- ed, and the poorest man could make, at least, something very respectable of himself. But sad truth that so many of our young men mie take themselves. Let us see then what is calculated to make men honorable, and how near the rising gener- ation complies with these rules. First, Sobriety is one of the leading charac- teriatics of honorable men. Let our young men abstain from all intoxicating drinks, avoid the society of the drunkard, and have good moral conrage enough to refuse such invitations as will disgrace them while they live; and they will thereby exhibit such bravery and stability as will elevate them in the estimation of-all good men. Second, Let them avoid the habit of profani- ty which, instead of being an honor to them, is very disgusting to the hearer, degrading to their own characters, and even indecent in f male society; and they will thereby bear another in- delible mark that will be an honor to them in society, help them in business and will always speak well for them in life. Third, Let them abstain from the habit of lewdness and the society of the lewd. When they give liberty to such illegal and indecent lusts of the flesh they diagrace themselves for life. Yet thisseems to be a growing vice and is calculated to do our young folks (older ones not excluded) much harm, and some body ought to inform them of their error. —_ ovr Aa) oe ied oT. : ‘ 4 eee ee ae ar ts a ee coat ° : An Bas eo ji a a t ” eat e he oe as me . a te settee dha ctenieieeet ese iel ; ‘Vers,’ Your: fiews afe Got my views Your policy is not my : better With *& m= - ew = Gy your and a ) | Jomx C, Carson.” _ Mr. Carson’s letter to Rey. Mr. BRumple, stated clerk, as published in the Pioneer, and from which paper it is here copied, may be regarded as correct though given by himself, also his rehearsal of the names of the commit- tee, to whom it was referred, and the charges ~hich were tabled against him, based spon tuat le(ter. The charges were that: his action in writing that letter, was “contrary to the con- stitution of the church and in violation of “his ordination vows.” The constitution of the Presbyterian charch makes no provision for -| any of,her Ministry to “diselaim the aathority and jurisdiction” of her courts, as Mr. Carson did. There are only three ways provided for getting rid of her courts: Ome is by de- | position : another by regular diamission to some other church, and a third by death. There is no such thing in the constitation as “renuncia- tion. Mr. G. had a perfect right to ask for a dismission and it would have been cheerfully given to him. He violated -the constitution and the Presbytery was obliged to deal with him. At his ordination Mr. Carson solemnly yow- ed “to be subject to his. brethren in the Lord,” Under the power of this vow, he was bound, either to united with the majority, or to separ- ate himself from them in an orderly way. He did neither, but with a high hand, he resolved to sever his connection in a new, unauthorized, and unconatitations! way. All this appeaf® from his own showing. Mr. C’s ideas of “immorality and unchristian conduct” arealso somewhat peculiar: He says no such charges were brought against him: Are drunkenness. aad theft, and murder, the only things that are immoral and unchristian ? Are not covenant breaking and violation of solemn vows, immoralities? Is it not immor- ality to tradace his brethren, to stigmatize their action asa “rebel measure, sustained and driv- en through the church by rebels and none others’ ? Those ministers and elders had, many of them, at that time, taken the oath of allegiance to the United States, and they have beedi to this day as “truly loyal” to the consti- tution as Mr. C. has. They had no thooght of disloyalty. They simply decided that it was to the interest of the church of Christ to continue their Organization by sending delegates to the Southern General Assembly. Mr. C’s assertion that all these charges were made because he was a “loyal man,” isgratuitous and unfounded. No notice was taken of the “six or eight others” who signed the “solemn protest.” They may In short, let them avoid all immorality, which, though, so popalar with many, is degra- ding and diagracing; and let them become con- sistent members of some church, and they will adorn themselves with such marks, and such a grade of reputation that nothing in the world can surpass it. But what is the drift of a great part of the future dependence of our country? A little ob- servation will show that many of thowe are first foand profane, then drunk, afterwards adulter- ous and finally given up to all the lust of a corrupt human nature, and deceitfulness of a depraved heart. The public streets of our cities, public gath- ering in the country, excursions, and nearly all large bodies are so thronged with profanity, drunkenness, and other sinful habita, that it is often very unpleasant for good moral citizens to be at such places. Young men, stop and think. Do you expect to make anything of yourselves? Do you expect to be honorable, wealthy and wise? Then avoid these vices; but especially drunkennessand profanity. SOBRIETY. ———__- <9 6 REV. JOHN C. GARSON, candidate on the Republican State Ticket for the responsible office of Superintendent of Pub- lie Iastruction, having published iv the Ashe- ville Pioneer, Aug. 5th, a long letter contradic- ting certain statements made by tho Raleigh News touching his expulsion from Concord Presbytery, aad undertaking to show that the Presbytery’s action in his case was unconstitu- tional and schiamatic, we having some know)- edge of the case present the following in answer to said letter. Mr. Carson disclaims ever having recognized in any way the Southern General Asdéembly and the Presbyteries of which it was compos- ed—neyer attended any of their meetings dur- ing the war; but was at the Fall sessions of Concord Presbytery in 1865, The General Assembly of the Confederate States had been in existence since Dec. 1861. Concord Presbytery was an integral part of it, and Mr, Carson waa an integral part of Con- cord Presbytery. He uttered no remonstrance, made no protest. He says he did not meet with his Presbytery for about four years, The Records, not now before us will show. But in the Statesville Presbytery, he either was a member, or he was not. If he was a member, it was by succession through the four years of war, Only on this theory had hea right to seat and a prc test. The question at Statesville was nat one of “reconstruction,” asstsved by Mr. C., but whether the Presbytery would send commissioners to a genetal assembly to be held in Macon Gai, in Dec. 1875, in place of the general assembly that waa to have met the May previous, but prevent- ed from convening by the state of the Coantry. and atrong opposition” on the “recenstraction” subject. No vuch thing is remembered. Our recollection is that it was an earnest, courteous, fraternal discussion, upon the question whether it was expedient to have awembly that Fail, or wait for the regular time, next spring for more settled times, The majority | of Christian work shoald | } suspen In order to dhow the head and front of Mr. Mr. Carson says there was s “stormy debate |- to unite in calling-eneet cece, that our plans | y not be suspended. have been “loyal men” too, for what the Pres- bytery knew and cared. Some of them we | suppose are still members of the Presbytery, in good and regular standing, and enjoying the | full confidence of their brethren. These charges having been made against Mr. C. he was regularly cited to appear and anewer, three different times, and failing to appear, he was at length deposed from the holy ministry, for contumacy, all in strict accordance with the constitution. Bat perhaps there is something else that will ac- count for the “milk in the cocoanut.” The Northern general assembly had passed a reso- lution declaring that any three ministers of any of the Southern Presbyteries, who should form themselves intoa Presbytery should be recognized as the Presbytery, in connection with herself. The bait was too temptirg to Mr. Carson. He and two others, in the same predic- ament with himself, organized a “Simon Pure” “Coveord Presbytery,” and were recognized by the Northern assembly. They supposed them- selves the real heirs of all church and school and college property, belonging to the Presby- tery. If we are not ‘mistaken that “Simon Pure” Presbytery had serious thoughts of tak- ing posession of Davidson College and the Femaje College, and they were only prevented from making the contest by the entrance of two or three more modest and bonest men, who put the brakes upon them. Mr. Carson, we learn, is a very ordinary man, of little culture, who failing to succeed as a doctor, by some means or other got ordination asa Presbyterian minister ia a new school Presbytery, in East Tennessee. He became a member of Concord Presbytery about 1858 by certificate. He has been preach- ing in obscure places if the mountains, and has never had any associations with colleges or other liteary institutions of note, so far as we know. His qualifications for the duties of Superintendentof Pablic Instruction need to be certified. ———__~gpo—___— A Double Danger Averted.

It has been asserted, since the beginning of the present campaign, that alibough Mr. ‘Tildew was fully aware of the nefarions scheme, he held bis peace, stood aloof, and permifted ite cons summation without remonstrating against it. Hearkeu to the Times of August 17, 1871, iv an editorial on the sabject ; There were a few. indignant protests against the scheme uttered by such high toned Democrats as Samu.

And ia the report of the proceedings of the same date, the following wero the editorial comments of the Timez on the course pursued by Mr. Tilden at the Cou- venation :-— There would be no doubt where a gen- tleman of Mr. Samuel J. ‘Pilden's char. acter woald be found in such a contest as this. He tried every argument aud every expedient to induce the Convention to come befure the people with clean jbands. No portion of the blame for the suicidul course of the Convention attaches to him.

Suffice it to say, I returned home more in love than ever with my own beloved South, even in her present state. It is hardly necessary for me to add to the pages of panegyric written on the Cen- tennial Exhibition, but it certainly more than deserves them all. I think, indeed, I know, that I learned more of the produc- tions, the active industries of the world at large, in my short visit, than I would have acquired by years of foreign travel. I am very fond of a branch of study to which ladies do*not often take a fancy, viz: Miner- alogy, and the treasurers of precious stones, diamonds, stones of every kind and value, would alone have engaged my attention for weeks. The Japancse department in the Main Building was one of my especial favor- ites, (after the treasurers in painting and statuary contained inthe Art Gallery.) I never had any idea that the Japanese were ao Ingenious, had such stores of treasurers gorgeous and unique, splendid stands of their own lac- queted or Ja ware, of carved ivory, c., cabinets from several inches to 5 or 6 pearl, ivory, and every thing choice and costly; their bazars were so crowded, when selling goods, that it was very difficult to get near enough to examine their wares. After the Japanese, the next in interest to me, were ‘the Chinese, Evyptian and Russian department: tho Ex y ptian for their old time treasurers, splendid saddles, heavy witb gold and precious stones, wares of ail kinds, indeed it is useless to attempt a description unless I fill a volume. A large stuffed crocodile looks around, with a most taking smile. The Russian department was mainly interesting to ine for its treasurers in Mala- chite, Lapis lazuli, &c., round or oval table | tops, (nice Bezique tables.) of Malachite richly polished, as well as of Lapis azuli, a bright Liue stone which looked as if | gold dust had been sifted through it; clocks | of the same stones, charms, knife handles, &c., and a splendid Mulachite mantle piece, ornamented with rich clusters of all kinds all made of some precious stones. There were also mineral treasures from the Ural Mts., from the Mining School at St. Peters- burg, crystals of Bereyls Aquamarine, Emer- ald, Amazon Stone, Rosé Tourmaline, To splendid clusters of Amethyst. I noticed some twenty-two different kinds in a very small space. In another department I saw a magniticent mantle picce of Mexican Onyx, (a yellowish stone, veined with green,) sold to the Emperor William of Germany for $2.500. The exhibitor, an American, told me he was so sorry he did not know that the man he was selling it to was an agent foran Emperor, he would have added $2,000 to it if he had been aware that it was not for a private individual.

Logan's Opinion. | WasninGTo®, \ag. 17.-The President's deepotic order was the theme of conver- sation aud criticism in this city to day. A few members of Congress remain w bose vpiuions are worth quoting. Senator Gordon of Georgia, whu started for home to-night, when asked what be though would be its effect, said: ‘I fear it will be the means of wreating two Stat«s from us Such orders are never issued from phi- lauthropic or disinterested motives. It certatnly was uot intended to etrengthern the Democratic party ; therefore we must reason that its object was designed to effvet a contrary result. Not that there was any fear of violence during the cam paign, bat the slightest pretext woald be made ao ¢xcusedur calling apoy troozs, aud alter that tales of intimidation and terrorism could be repeated.” Mr Morrisou, the leader of the House, said that, after reflection, he was convinced the order would result in great good to the Demoeratic party in the South. — It would pat the people of that section on their good behavior, and doubtless kee hem from rash acts. He did not dock’ - of the wisdom of policy which prompted the order, but of ita effect now that it had been promulgated. ‘I can’t but believe,” he concluded, “that the party and the country will be the better for Grant's rashness,” Mr. Lamer declined to express any opiuion, bat by his looks and actions it wae evident he was exceedingly aunoyed at the attitude of the Administration to- ward the Soath. Congreseman Sayler of Ohio laughing ly said that it would do the Demucrate quite as much good ae it would the Re- publicaus, ‘Thoughtful people would un- derstand that one portion of the coantry eunnot be picketed and garrisoued by »| Federal troops ou the order of the Presi- deut without giving the right to scatter the army all over the country. If in the South, why not the North? If in New Orleans, why not in Cincinnati, Chicago, or any other city ? Nor would the people believe that order was maiutained through fear. Iu Louisana the trouble had vot been riots and iutimidation, but the dis. honest conduct of the State officials in counting the vote; and all the army of the United States bad no terror for such men as Packard and Kellogg. ea HE KNEW IT. Bill Smith sail in his speech at Ashe- boro, last week, that he knew the .war was coming on two years. before it did, and that be put bis house in order for the crash when it came, by baving himself elected to sundry offices, which would exempt bim from military duty. He told this to show that be was not under any obligations to Governor Vance for giving him a command in the militia, which ex- rempted him from service in the field. This is rather a crooked commentary cn the Major by himself. He kuew the war was coming, took steps to keep out of it, and then voted for the ordinance of seces.. sion, by which his neighbors were forced intoa war, the perils of which he had taken precaution to eseape. ’ ———-~s--___ A borrible miscreant walked delibor- ately into-a certato store ia this place @ day or wwovago and registered an awtal vow that, for once in his life; at least, bie wifewbould have a sensible present.

On the blade near the hilt ere the letters “W. H.

The history of this sword, so far as known here, dates no farther back than April, 1885. Mr. Marsh’s father, Mr. E. H.

R. on Tar River) was done in 12 hours: now it takes 30 hours. Still I was glad to ,stay over night in Raleigh, not having been in that city since the | war, The boistergys and rude importunities of | negro hack drivers and hotel runners at the | Raleigh depot are kept at bay to the extent of | permitting passengers to alight from the train unmolested, but this unpleasantness assails them fitreely at the end of the gangway. I wassaved from this annoyance, however, by the politeness of Mr. Kerr (son of “our Major,’ ) book-keeper at the “ National.” Capt. Brown at Morganton, | before the war, kept the best hotel in this State | He now has the very best, in every respect, that I have seen in the South. Gouimands and Epicures will alike regret their limited stomach and paunch capacity when leaving the “Na- tional” dining room. The capital square, the finest and shadiest park of its sizein the U.S, ia, practically, aa much a part of the National Hotel as if it belonged to it, in the promotion of pure air, rural stillness, and autumnal cool- ness in the hottest weathers, while furnishing that antidote to or preventive of weariness or despondency,—a dilightful rest to the eye: from thiy arcadian seclusion, a half minute's walk acroas the capital square yoa ewerge on the very business centre of the ¢itg. There the first eye attraction is the large and clegant book store and publishing howe of J. H. Enuniss. After seeing, in and around Salisbury, vege- tation frozen in April, deluged in June and roasted in July, it is a pleasant relief to see in this locality abundance, and to héar people speak thankfully of the favorable season and aay that this year will be better than an average one for all crops. Plenty of peaches here, I have them with cream or as “Cobblers,” every day at dinner and supper. People here who appear well posted say there are only twelve white radicals in this county, (Franklin) and all of them office-holders or aspiranta to office in the pa:ty. By-the-way, are there any other white radicals south? Rea- soning by anology from my own personal ob- servation, there are not. I do not include very ignorant men in some sections, of whom I have heard but not seen, who are dupes. If this is deemed of any interest, [ will write similarly, occasionally. ~ COSMO.

Nor can they generally see any deeper into a mill stone than the hamble willer. Take an example of com- paratively recent date. Hoo. B. H. Hill, of Georgia, wrote as follows, 1861, to wit: “No man is a fit counseller now who | sesunies\that slavery can be abolished by any party or any power. This is a con- _ces#ion to tho effects and dreams of fav~ aticism without any foundation in fact.

A few months afterward there was another murder in the town, and the: suspected marderer was brought before the "Squire for examination, In the meantime, however, a lawyer from a dia~ tant town had been engaged by. the ac- cused and appeared in the court-room for the defense. The old Justice was pro-. ceeding as calmly with the second case as with the firet when he was interrupted by the learned counsel. “If the Court please “he said, you cannot try this man.

As for the Southern people, they are not only soldier-ridden ; they are as loath as. they are helpless to resist. It is with us-of the North to pro. tect effectually against such outrages upon our common right, and perhaps, and it will be the better for us all if we deal seriously with any menace of repeating them, and let the Government of the United States understand that such per- formances cannot wieely be threatened as a mere partisan trick and contrivance. __ <a GREAT GUNS AND IRON ARMOR. The London Standard of July 31 says: “The trial of the Armstrong gun of 100 tons, when it gets out to Italy, will be awaited with much interest. The test applied to the hydraulic machinery of the gun will also be practically valuable.— Let us cousider what is involved in the working of four 100 ton guns on board ship. Iu actual combat these guns may have to be fired simultaneously over the side. Although placed in turrets, and therefore occupying a central line, there will be a great shifting of weight when these guns recoil. Supposing the vessel to be rolling from the action of the waves in the direction of the recoil, it is possi- ble that the instantaneous shifting of more than four hundred tons from. one side of the keel to the other may have an awkward effect. It would be a strange fate for a big ship to knock -herself over by the recoil of her own guns. ‘T’be Italians seek to get rid of this riek by making the recoil] exceedingly short.— The hydraulic machinery inveuted for this purpose by Mr. G. W. Rendel can- not fail to be well worthy of his fame, but the mechanical arrangements must be exceedingly strong and well contrived to bear the enormous strain they will have to endure. The gun recoils with the same force that the shot advances, and when we remember that the 81-ton gun has put forth an energy of more than twenty- six thousand foot tons, we may. guess at the immense force which will have to be controlled in the case of the larger an. ’ It may be well to refer to a clasa of vessels altogether distinct from such he- roic monsters as the Inflexible, the Duilio, and the Dandolo. The most powerfally armoied ship at present afloat is the Thunderer. jast heen finished on the Tyne, each of which will be fitted up by the Armstro firm with hydraulic wachinery workiag a 38-ton gan. ‘T’bese vessels ars al the Stauneh type, but larger, being of about four hundred tons ere Com- pared with our big ships, these gun-boate are diminative.

It was thought desirable to ascertain as nearly as possible the choice of the people, and the Executive Committee directed the Townships to hold full meetings, and take the vote of the people. This*was done, rather {mperfectly no doubt ; for in some cases the attendance at Township meetiag was smalk and in other cases, the attendance was tardy, spreading through the larger part of the day, whereas, the holding of the meeting and taking the vote was only the work of a few minutes time, cutting off from its privi- leges those who were slow in arriving, Notwithstanding these and other imperfee- tions in the plan, (which, hereafter, should be amended), it worked pretty well; and we have a ticket made up by the people themselves, who will doubtless support it with more zeal, than any presented to them jn a long time. It is not out of place to call attention to one defect in the above plan, and that is, in leaying the Townships to make their own appointment of day for holding the town- ship meeting when candidates are to be se- lected for the county. By this rule, the town- ship meetings will be held at different times, affording an opportunity to interested men to run around from one township to another and set to work cunning machinery by which to control the action of the town- ship. It would be better, we think, to hold all the township meetings on the same May. There would be fewer chances for outside influences to come in and affect the spontan- eous expression of the people; fewer dis- tractions of the mind, and therefore a clearer verdict rendered. The comparison of the votes of the town- ships on Saturday last, showed an almost un- | animous vote for Mr. W. H. Crawford, for | the Senate; J. S. Henderson and J. 8 Mc-| Cubbins, Sr., were decidedly chosen for the | Commons; Waggoner, for Sheriff; Fraley, | for Coroner ; J. 8. McCubbina, Jr., for Treas- r urer; Woodson, for Register; and J. C. Bernhardt, for Surveyor. It was found that only three persons had received a ma- jority of the townships for Commissioner, so that the delegates had to go into an elec- tion for two more te complete the Board. The two persons selected had received five townships each in the primary township elections. Mr. Reid got the vote of Salisbury, | Mt. Ulla, Locke, Litaker and Morgan ; rep- resenting a voting strength (as compared with Robbins' vote two years ago) of 796. Mr. Davis had received the vote of Salisbury, Mt. Ulla, Atwell, Gold-Hill, and Scotch Irish ; representing a voting strength of 948, which is 152 more than a majority of the Conservative voting strength of the county.

Colored man—Not one that J can call to mind now. Gent—And yet you vote for them every year, right or wrong, good or bad. Colored man — Yee sir, we goes it blind.

He arched | bis beautiful neck, and travelled in a business like manner ‘vill we got to the caw-taw-baw river bridge, which is about 650 feet long and | spans that mighty tumultuous river, which was named after the bridge. “Old purp” persiat- antly refused to go through the bridge, and by way of pursuasive argument, the driver knock- ed him down with a rail and led him through before he fully recovered, Presently he came to himself and Legan to show signs of life by | starting off in a lope, which was a great incon- venience to the man that took tule fur the use | the bridge: he followed on a mule, hollowing lto us to wait! but old purp was riled, he bad | been knocked down and there wae no stop in Ile got worse and Legan running as the tole-man neared us, We suppose the idea of a race had entered his sensible head, and that fool notion together with the masic. urged him to his utmost. The tole-man despaired and turn- ed back, but “old purp” went onward till we en- tered the saburbe of that frontier city, Hickory —-the music and the speed attracted the atten- tion of the natives, they all came runring to the doors and windows to the know excitement. “Old purp” heeded not the merry gaze of the smiling people, but hurried on to the Western Hotel where he wasinthe habit of stopping when in Hickory, and stopped. Rro. Tumlin- son came immediately forward and congratu- lated us on our safe arrival and musical turn- out.

The inhabitant of a malarious region ix threatened by a double danger. [le is not only compelled to breathe miasma, but to swal- low it, since it infects not only the atmusaphere, bat the water. The aerial poison threatens his system through the lungs and pores, the liquid through the stomach. Against this double peril there is but one protection, and that is to invigorate the entire body through the diges- tive and secretive organs. Ordinary tonics usually fail to accomplish this—Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters never.

Aftera brief consultation, the court announced that from the importance of the questions raised, the great amount of testimony iptroduced, and the limited time the court had to examine the case ; as this was probably only a stepping stone to the Supreme Court, it bad concluded to enter a pro forma affirmation of the de- cision below, but withoutindieatiog any op- jnion op the merits of the case.

Joy in Saloons and Lodges. ‘The first party which entered the church consisted uf two Masovs, one of whom is a leading member of the faction and the other an old apostate from the Lutheran faith and wembe; pf the M. E. church. The otber two if not Magons are jo full sympathy with the Lodge. After ringing the church bell for a few minutes this party left, locking the door. They had not gone more than ten piontes when two members of the council faction, both of whom are Masons and one a saloonist, in company with their pastor, Rev. J. G. Neiffer, appeared and entered the church. | This “Christian” pastor entered this | church vow for the first time in bis life | and secmed highly jahujant over the! temporary victory, evineing hia joy by | raising the windows, playing the organ and singivg in a boisterious tone.

Our Lord’s saying concerning the tem- ple at Jesualem on one occasion, came vividly to mind on seejng that sight: “It js written wy J’ather’s house is called a house of prayer but ye have made it a den | of thjeves.”’ How well this language applies to the case in Land, may be seen by the fuise swearing by leaders of that party to gain thatchureh. We may have occasion to refer to this ata future time.

As soon as it is thne divided they will cease to be an object of ostracism and boue of contention. Both parties will then treat them wi b due respect. aud the white people of this State are as friendly to the colored people as they are feelings exist between the two races.

To a visitor this strocture does not present a very striking appearance, as it is lost in its simplicity Ly the side of the young men’s Christian Association just cpposite, an immense structure, being the largest building of fis kind and nature in the United States, but as you enter the halls of the Academy you are somewhat astonished by the beauty of the rooms is perfect, ventilation good, and light, 80 escential to a place of this kind, admirable. Tts walls are adorned with all that tlie arts can create, of beauty, of grace, and of majesty. The present exhibition originated in the suggestion that the city of New-York ought to furnish to its Centennial visitors more than its ordinary sourceof entertainment. The private galleries ard individual possessions of the citizens of N. Y. were known to be of a rare and munificent character, and the appeal to the citizens for a temporary loan of their treasures was answered with the most generous responses, r which has enabled the Gommittee in charge to present an exhibition of art that has never been surpassed on this continent—the unusual excel- lence and rarety of this collection deserves more praise than your correspondent is capable of giving. The visitor will find a sufficient guide to the collection in the Catalogue which can be had by applying to the door-keeper. It is sensibly and intelligently arranged, givng to each col- lector its own individual room and space, with number of subjects corresponding to title and name of artist in the Catalogue. People do not go to see this collection with a view to criticise schools or individuals, the whole city is interested in the Exhibition and everybody goes sure of meeting everybody else. As we enter the building we gradually ascend a few flight of steps which brings us to the main hall of the building. Here we are in the midst of art!l—pictures the greater part of them painted by men of great note and popularity, very few of them without signs of cleverness and points of interest, and the majority of them of rare exceptional value. In the North room fronting the stair case are to be seen the collections of Ex-Gov. Morgan 48 in number, chief among which, are o be mentioned the.“ Bi Festi- val,” by A. Alverez, Se a prominert place,.where the best light ie afford- ed—the coloring is exquisite with its high lights daring, brilliant costumes piquent sub- jects. To the left of this we have by S. Dan- nutelli of the same school a subject entitled “an Intrigue ;’ Period of the Venetian Republic —the careful perspective, the gradations of light, the projection of shadow, the minnte ob- servance of effects in the-distribution of color make this a grand picture. On the opposite wall we have one of Lobri- chon’s most amusing—“Le Bagage de Croquen- ritaine’ this is a subject full of humor and feel- ing. “Departure of the Bride” by Ch. Bauguiet is to be admired for its richneas of color, is clearly painted and full of good expression. No 74 “Fruit” by J. H. Doeph ia excellent, is of the most exquisite delicacy in coloring and seems almost eatable in its richness. Inthe East room from the gallery of Mr. Fisk we have firat and one of the best “The Pension Agent” by Eastman Johnson, apart from the clever painting the popular value of the picture lies in ite wholesome happy portra- ture of a wholesome happy kind of life—the | old country qiiilt, the old fashion side board and a few old and odly shaped jars are objects of never failing interest. Toright of this is a beautiful subject “Gand ma’s Birth-day by Rudolph Epp, this isa gem of gentle sentiment, skillful drawing and pleasing color. So life like—in the fore ground we have the old family Bible and Grand ma’s never-to-be-forgotten work basket. One lingers near this picture and recalls days past and gone forever ! From the collection of Mre. A. F. Stewart in the South room are to be seen two of Geromes bent —the “Race of the Chartoteers” and the “Gladia- tors.” Likeall of Geromes works they are pre-eminently suggestive—he not ouly creates but inspires, It is difficult to say just where his power lies, it can be refered to no one thing, but rather to the complete harmony be- tween hieigures, his color, his form and gen- eral treatment. 279 “Head waters of the Hud- gon” by Homer Martin from the gallery of Dr. Otis is a strongly rendered scene—the Hadson son isa never failing theme, and well may it be, for its ecenery is of usurpassed beeuty. This is clear characterization of one of the good “views.” In the West room we have from the gallery of Mr. BR. M. Oliphant, sixteen very five and pleasing subjects mostly of the American school, two by Eastman Johnson “Warning her Hands’ and the “Young Letter Writer” are of the best. The artist never painted more charming pictures. They are richly colored, finely drawn and expressive in character. From the collection of Mr. Parke Godwin, we have a treasured relic of the Father of his life and energy, and gives us the immortal ps- triot in a noble distincti v@ mien, feature 3nd expression.

Two young mai- Gens with ideal faces of real beauty in the sweet summer of life—meditation is written upon their faces, the atitade of thoughtfulness as if young Love's dream were with them—the fine coloring—the arrangement of drapery conspire to give thie pieture »n almost inesta- mable value to the lover of the beautiful in art. We can almost fancy we hear them say : “Summer is gone on swallows wings The earth has burried ali its flowers No more the lark or linnet sings Bat silence sits in faded bowers.” From the gallery of Mr. A. R. Eno, we have a suberb painting called the “Family Group.” One of the finest figure pictures in the whole Exhibition is “Leaving the Church on a Rainy Day” by Madrazo. Mr. Robert Cutting is the fortunate owner. “The Miser” and the “Marriage Festival” by Adolph Dillens both notable paintings, and it seems as you look at them itis hardly possible for color to produce still life more perfectly. These are from the gallery of Mrs. Paran Stev- ens. From the collection of Mr. Chas. Stewart we have a beautiful subject, “Objects of Art”’—fruit piece by Blaise Deagoffe. It makes the lips moist from the desire to tasie, to‘ gaze on this picture. Also the “Last Throw” by Spriddon, “Echo” by Alex Cobarel, “allstaff’ in the Bask- et” by Isabey“‘The Dethroned Idal” by Horace Viynet, and many others of note. ._.. And thus could we go on describin? one by one of this grand collection but time and space will not permit. There are 48 contributions in the make up of this collectiqn numbering 398 paintings from the Roman, Venetian, Flemish, German, English and American schools. Instead of art being neglected inthiscountry — it is surely on the increase, especially in the cities of N. Y. and Phildelphia. Its populari- zation must be considered as one of the charac- terictics of this century—this is owning to the great facilities given by schools of Design, and the fine display of our art gallerys, art stores and the extraordinary liberality of in- dividuals in lending their collections for public purposes. The extent to which art enters into the usages of daily life is better know than re- membered, Not an article of the household but may be'an object of art. ‘The ancients re- duced this to practice. Their very cooking utensils had symmetry and proportion, and their lamps, vases, wine-jars, or water cooler, chairs, couches tables and tripods were mould- ed in lines and curves which are now the ad- miration of the moderns, and are copied into forms of luxury and elegance. Art in this country is in a transition state, but in our large cities we find an indication of growth, larger sympathies and ¢ more veraatile taste, What we expecially need is to bring art within the scope of popular associations, to es- tablish schools of Design—to throw open our art galleries ab libitum, and thus endeavor to teach all classes the way to the true, the bean- tiful and good, thus stamping by the highest individuality of purpose, truth to nature, hu- man actions, human sentiments and patient self devotion.

Turkey ia the only empire in the world where a council of Miuisters, appointed by the sovereign, could seize and bandle the reins of power and change the soy- ereign at their pleasure. ‘I'bree m ocths ago the Tarkish Ministry dethroned the Sultan, Abdul Aziz, who thereupon com- mitted suicide.

Mr. Hayes is but the figare-head put up by Conkling, Cameron, Morton and Co , to secure a continuation of their own power, They certainly have nominated him; they have the undispated leadership of the party; they have the absolute cone | duct of the campaign; they move heaven | and earth to eleet him; if he is elected it | will be mainly through their efforts. He is under the greatest obligation to thew now | tor hig nominvation; would then be under still greater obligation to them for bis | election. Mr. Schurz praises the honesty, the scrnpuloas bonesiy, of Mr. Ilayes. | How then ean be he-itate a single secoud to recognize these obligations? Low, as | au bonest man hesitate to pay then off! but this is not all.

WHAT HAYES MUST DO. What, then, must most plainly be the position of poor Mr. Hayes? Already an- der the heaviest buarthen of obligation for the past he is bonnd to solicit their aid fur the future. He will have to depend upon them just as much after bis inaugu- ration, as before bis nomination and elec~ tion. Ifhe is av honest man he is boand te and belougs to them for what they bave done. iu the past; it he is a prudent man, doubly belongs to them for what they may do iv the fatare. ‘This seems clear enough, that as long as the world exists the creator controla the created, the superior the iuferior. In the face of all this Mr. Schurz pretends to believe that the election of Mr. Hayes woald in- sure av entire change of the present Grant adwinistration—a complete departure from the leading men and measures and management of the party. Has Mr. Hayes given any reason for so extraordinary an expectation? Mr. Schurz's idea of re- form certainly means the atter polirical destraction of the ‘‘machine” of Grant and Cawerou and Morton and Oonkling and Blaine and their bandreds of thou- sands of office holding or office expecting tollowers—in one word, of every ‘ma~ chine” politician who now labors for Mr. Hayes.

The line theo marched up King street quietly and without iuterraptioa,. uu til they reached the German Church, oppo- site the Citadel Green. when a wob of about 150 negroes, armed with staves. clubs and pistols, caine yelliug after them, harrabiog for Hayes aud Wheeler. The white men stopped, and oue of the leaders of the negru gang whe had run op ahead of his crowd accompanied by about a duZen, knocked the first white mao he met iu the head with a slung shot. and the crowd iminediately be- hind him fired a pistol iuto the crowd of whites, shuating that they would have the colored Deinocrats out even ifthey had to kill «very nan io the crowd to do it. The whites then returned the fine, shouting over the beads of the negro ineb, aud a | portion of the white men took Rivers, Sawyers, Jeu- | kius, aud otherevlored Democrats to tlhe Citadel, where they were placed uuder the guard of the United States troops. Tu a shorter time than it takes to tell the story, the negro mob had increased to fully three huudred. ull of whom were yelling and shouting aud breathing threats of vivleuce. There were abvat forty whites iu the crowd, and these retreated backwards up Kiug street, facing the negroes aad keeping them off as well as they oonld by returning the fire froin the pistols of the wb. On feat ing the eorner of Juhn street the negro mob was reinforced by another multitude of blacks wh. swept out of Jobu street and cut off the retreat af the whites. It was at this point that the fight became hottest. It was now a band to Baud contest, in which pistol shots exchanged very rapidly. Ouly foar or five policemen had arrived at the scene, and these were of vourse, powerless to restrain the infuriated nuh.

Policeman Chas Green, cvlored, at this time came up. and stavding between Judge Reed aod Mr. Piasphol did all he could to persuade the crowd to disperse; they refused, ausweriug his words with curses aud threats. For a moment the crowd ap- peared as if quieting but a skirmish between a white and black man, vn the outskirts of the eruwd, soou reuewed the geueral figh'. Policeman Green became surrounded, aud endeas ored to arrest a man who had just fired offa pistol. Pistols were guing off every moment, avd amid the firing Pulice- wau Green fell shot in the abdomen, aod Mr. J. M. Buckner, white, was shot through the abdomen. By this time the policemen were reiuforced by equads from the upper and lower Guardhouses, and succeeded in severating the whites from the blacks. The wounded uiva were taken to the upper Sta- tiouhvuse by a detail, and the fightiug im- mediately began again. The whit«s by this time ununbered ouly about fifteen meu, large nuinbers of them having been knocked senseless with clabs aud palings, with which the mub were armed. After a desultory fight of about fifteea mioutes longer the ne- roves had complete inastery uf the field.— Policeman Green was the only colored man up to that time whe was hart, and he was shot, it is believed by one of the negro mob, who attewpted to fire at a white man be was protecting. Several negroes had been kuoeked down, and five or six received bad gashes over the head, but noue were seri- ously hart. The tegroes then stationed themselves in crowds offorty and fifty at each corner along King street, extendivg from Calhoun street to the Upper Gaard- | house, in which stvod a huge and ivfuriated wob, cursing and threateving to break io and take ont the white mea who had been placed there for protection. White meu oa the street were scarce, and as soon as ove turned 4 corner or caufe aldug ov his way home, the crowd iu his immediate vicinity would give a yell aod ge for him with brick- bats, stoves and pistol shots. The crowds at the coruers sbuve and below them. bear- ing the pistol snuts, would close up. aod iv a few moments the uofurtuvate was surroun- ded by a pack of over two handed negroes, who did everything but kill him. They would knock him dows with brickbats, aud as s60u ashe would get up to ruu they would fire pistul shote at him aod over his bead, while the crowd alread woald re-arrest him aud giwe him aoother beatiog.

DEAR WATCHMAN : In addition to the large libraries of the two Literary Societies of the University, there is a very valuable collection of books in Smith Hall, known as the College Library. It con- tains several thousand volumes. Owing to the policy of Gov. Swain, and other causes, it does desirable. Now and then both old and new books are added. The collection is ‘extraordi- narily rich in books that are old and rare. It embraces great variety as to language and topics. While cariously inspecting the treas- ares of its shelves, not long ago, 1 found a cou- ple of volumes, with the title of “Smith’s Tour.” It gives the narrative of an intelligent and ob- servant Englishman, who travelled through the colonies between the war of the Regulators and the Revolution, and who, as a loyalist, had quite an eventful experience during the strug- gle. The work was published in London in 1784. As apropos to the Centennial, I send you extracts from bis story. PerhapsI may give you some others, at another time. It may please your readers to look into the mirror of a hundred yearsago. I introduce the traveller, on his way from Hillsborough to Salisbury. He says: “Late in the afternoon we crossed the niver Yadkin, at a ford, six or seven ‘miles beyond which isthe town of Salisbury, where we arrived that evening, beiog about one hundred and twenty miles west south-west from Hills- borough.’ The Yadkin ina very large stream of water, at least three timies'n¢ wide as the Thames at Puiney : it runs through a rich and extensive country, enters South Carolina, passing through the Chawrawe, having a vast body of luw grounds and rich rice and indigo lands on each side, &c. ; Salisbury is the capital of a district, and is the county town of Roan: it is situated on a small creek that runs into the Yadkin on the South-west side. This town is larger than. Hillsborough, and less than Halifax; but does pot share an equa) degree of commerce with the least of them. The trade from Salisbury is pretty exactly divided between the towns on James River in Virginia, and Charles Town in South Caro- lina. ) There is a beautiful romantic mountain 4 few miles due South from Salisbury, which be- effect, as the Carroway mountains dé ‘also, the Th order that’ the piblie may Davie'eo’s position on the Senator. | correspondence to be used as } 1876, } rebé oth awd. both 4 Seen wich forms Hosky siver, a hasnoh ol the et from Rowan Co. in sconvention asseuibled to- | ins of even the name of a’ village. \ It stands upon a creek that runs into’the is not a county town, and ite-trade and of commence is " , Miles? ahs ~ During this dey’s ride, I observed that safe the a As ile, on the other side of Salisbury.” © = °° It will’ beseénh that Mr. Smith’is not’ correct as to the distances, His statements appear’ to corroborate Judge Murpliy'S Hotes as the ab- sence of thé lofty forests which “obsctire’ the views in oat day.

DIGNIFIED BUT SCATHING LETTER TO THE EX-SENATOR FROM EX-LISUTEN- ANT GOVERNOR MUELLER (WHO Was FRLECTED LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR OF OHIO ON THE SAME TICKET WITH GOV. HAYES IN 1869. (Translated for the Cleveland “Plain Dealer” from the “Waechter am Ere" of Aug. 24) To Mg. Cary Scuvnz: The announcement that you are guing to make your debui asa ta reform- er in our beautifal Forest City has been a surprise to me and no less to many of your former admirers. I think I under- stand why the Republican leaders wish to gee the lever for reconverting the Lib. eral Germans first applied in our city ; bat what J do not anderstand is that you should so readily offer your assistaace | You must have known, since 1872, that the reform ideas whose seed you helped to sow took strong root with us bere, and that these roots cannot be pulled out without some trouble. I do not think that you are given to the illusion of being able to re~Republicanize the German re- form elements of this locality, even with the rhetortical mastership that is your own. But as the persons who have ‘call- ed you heve believe, or at least pretend to believe, that such adexterous performance can be accompliehed, and inasmuch as the J,iberal Germans are thus exposed to the humiliating suapicion of requiring on- ly a0 intimation from yourself to be con- verted—this explains why you make your first you sign: speech in German— it is right ang to protest. Far too long already, far. too long fur the bonor of the German element as well as the honor of all of as, bas the false idea been work. ed and speculated upon that the German vote can be effectively influenced and Sanieied by, are one great or small u tis high time w mem hedeed.” ' Tae t in case that your speaking in Ger- mao is accidental, and that admins drawn from it be therefore void, I still wust avail myself of your presetice in order to set forth something to me all-important. Having been a member of the New York Conference, to which you invited me, I fee} called and justified to do ao. of the A friend has handed us some N. Y. papers published in 1839. We learn from one of them, under the head of “Abuse of Executive Power,” that the Gov, of N. Y. was charged whh having appointed a “minor to a civiloffice, contrary to the State Jaw.’ ‘Think of that reader. The people madea big fuss abogt emall abuses in those days. And that Governor who appointed minor to office had to account what the people of that day have done with Grant, and the rascally Gov- a who have plundered the Sonth? y would have hung them like sheep- “killing dogs. ‘» oe One is forcibly impressed, in looking over theseold papers of how small was the stock in trade of politicians iu those happy days of the Republic, (Of stealing ‘was none.

Hayes.” [we compare this parrage, which pronounces the verdict upon Mr. Hayes, with the parole likewise is#ued by Mr. Bchurg, vis:—that this election did not tara on political articles of faith a»anuch as on the personalities of the candidates, noton platforms bat on ‘the men that stood on them—then we discover the ér- refutable fact that not only Mr. Seharz but the entire conference, all of whom enthusiastically approved of the address, aud the above passage counted Mr Hayes as among those who should absolutely nol be supported. And, not yet content with this, the couference, by their eweeping ap- proval of Mr Adams’ speech, fixed ite programme as fuollowa; Bristow or Tilden; and in case that neither is nomiuated, re- convenying of the conference. The position taken by. the conference fall corresponded with my ows couvic- tion, It wus a great satisfaction to me to know that so patriotic a body of men- as were assembled there should agree iv the points above mentioned. I took the canse to be an earnest one; 1 have remained true to it, and shall remain true to it de- apite of all deserters, How it is with Mr, Schurz —the insti- gator and leader of the conference; the chairman of the executive commitiee, ap~ pointed at his own motion, and which was charged with carrying out the views and resolutions of the ussembly? How is it with the mao that, as long ago ae 1871, declared war on the Republican party, and who, to accomplish the ruin of he party, in 1872 allied himself with the Democrats? Is he, who for the past five years has been using his captivating elo- quence, his great talent and the strong power of his popularity for the overthrow of the Republican party—is he in his to- day's speech going to support that eawe party? Is te guing to show the Ger- maus that the Republican party is better in 1876 than it was in. 1872, and that Hayes has become a different man since the May conference?) Will Me. Seharz on the same epeaker’s stand ou which four years ago be advovated the alliance with the Democratic party to day sepre- seut this alliance to bis Germau fellow citizens as dangerona. Mr. Schurz ought to feel that he can- not succeed iv the attempt to harmonize his position of to-day with both thet of 1872 and that taken in the New York conference, and that no amount of sophis try is sufficient to fillthe gap which ex- ists between Schuiz the reformer, and Schurz the Republican stamp orator ! If the danger of a Tilden administra tion were as great as Mr. Schurz now pretends to fear, a review of his agitative activity during the past five years would certaiuly overwhelm him with a sense of great responsibility, for no one more than bebas successfully discredited the Re pablican party in the eyes of the people ; no one more than he more contributed to the thinning of its rawkes |! What ever Mr. Schurz may maintain in order to reconcile the contradictions between his previous position aud that of to-day, he will wot be able to overcome the logic uf the following propositions : 1. If his activity in behalf of reform since 1871, which culminated in the New York conference, has been caruestly be- lieved and justified, his present position is unpardonable, untenable and iaconsis- tent. 2. If that conference purposed more than tobe a mere comedy, Mr. Schorz can not possibly favor the election of Mr. Hayes. And iv ease that Me Schurz did not feel able to abide by bia dwy to sup, port Mr. Tilden the only thing left. for him to do was to reconvene ihe conference. 3. Lf Mr Sebarz in his sovereigmy be lieved that he could set himself above this dae regard and, obligation towards she members of the confereace there was left for him the only alternative to maiitain a passive or neutral, or at leust a reserved attitude, even if merely for the parpose of quieting in hie fellow-citizens and former reform companions the suspicion that bis position in this campaign is based on per- sonal grounds rather thaa on patriotic motives, : I have been induced to write this open pian t oe before, by Mr. Schurz’s coming bere fur a parpose whi “pars veal SROBLIE due delead Ove ne} sponded to hig invitation to the New ork meters This provoéation prompts me to v my own posi: as well as chat of all my MSS erators, of whom” theiri “forsyer ¢1 i, bave fougit for years, and not wnfre. a be y wade the~ greatest sacrifices. b Mr.) eity,) at i. ia th + is Ppwngent tc % soni ee ge to the Gen sinew toalt ne a ° Rip Ras mated ‘ .

Besides axcertaining the state of the weather, approach of storms, and the ike, which they do with marked precision, they will established an astronomical station and will build a special observatory for that purpose. Young’s Mountain is only about 400 feet above the common level of the surrounding country, ont we were surprised to find such a chavming view. The Blue Ridge inthe north and west is distinetly visible, while the steeples and spires of the churches in Mocksville are visible to the nakedeye. The country immediately around is a level plain, then undulating, then rolling higher and higher till we have the Blue Ridge looming up in the far west for a buck ground. — CONGRESSIONAL CANVASS.

Dick Badger aud Tim Lee each got their $8,000 of ihe State bonds out of the At- lantic & Obio Railroad Company appro- riation.- du fact, vot one of these pledge the faith of the State to their pay- tensive acquaintance with the members of that body. One of them, Gea. Jos. C. learning of what Messrs.

Estes, then a partuer, or in geome way connecied with Abbott, rep~ resented Abbet!; the bill wae passed and the mouey paid by drafton New York and eashedatthe Raleigh National Bank. The money was divided in Abbot.’s room, he and Estes taking $2,500, and J getting the other $2,500. Of this sum, I gave $500 fo a Major Rich, from Pitt county; $250 to Jas. H. Harrie, and kept the remainder. This was the commencement of the swindles that were perpetrated by the Convention and Legislature which lead to the financial ruin of your State. Before the close of the Couvention, the bill wae pessed giving Stase aid to the Chatham Road, aud $60,000 of bonds were given to Gen. Littlefield to pay the members for their votes. The Legislature met, and the members ever clamorous foralikinds of swindles and steals, their influence and their votes were up for sale to the highest bidder.

L~t me say in couclusion, that the above is only a sawple of the men who now want to control the destiny of a State. They are fit followers of such a thieving government as Grant has given as for ibe past four years, and which, if the Repnb- lican party is successful, we will have for the next four years. Then it is for the freemen of your State to rally around the polls at the November eleciion, and by your votes get rid of these thieves, for thieves they are; and gut honest meu io their places. ‘They are a degrace to the peuple of your State, aud lam glad I parted company with them, and got once more in hevest company.

I had, by this time, come to the conclusion that Swepson, Abbott, Littlefield and Co., would be tired of their shaking ne in the way they bad. Sol saw Judge Sammy Watte; made an arrangement with Jadge Watteto enjoin the issue of bonds to the Railroad Company, and ‘he was to have $5,000 of State bonds for issuing and sus- taining injunction in the Atlantic and Tennessee Railroad case, ‘The suit was in the name of one Kehoe of Newbern; the case wae fixed up, and Sammy got bis $5,000. There was but ove Railroad I now remember of, that did not pay trib- ute to this ring, and that was the Salem Road. They declined to bleed.” It was well understood that Mr. Swep~ son was toand did take care of Gov. Hol- deo, and ‘athe was paid for bis infla- ence. Andy Jones and Swepsou have otten told me that Swepson paid Gov. Holden some $25,000, besides bis siock in the Raleigh National Bank. I know that Litth field gave Holden $15,000 for the Standard. ,The ptice was high, but the Governor gave his countenance and eveouragewent to steal bis State. So it was about even, Gov.

Governor Vance was met some distance from the town by 200 moauted ¢itizens and escorted to bis lodgings. The epeaking commenced at 11 o'clock and lasted about 4 hours. A large delegation came up from Yorkville, S. ©.,; to hear Gov. Vanee. The enthu- giasm to his behalf was sablime. After ‘he. usual discussion he complimented the South Carolina part of bis audievce, aud-ebeered. them on io their endeavors to redeem the Palmetto State from the hands of tlié spoilers, The radieal party of this county met at the Court-House laat Saturday to nomi~ vate county candidates. ‘There were three or four white men and about 100 darkies. There are various rumors in re- epeet to the nominations made, though it ‘ fa generatly understood that they took ‘the asual liberty of nominating persons with or without their knowledge or con- sent.

Vance and Settle were at Charlotte on Tuesday. Vance’s friends got up a ‘aplendid-tnrnout, and with a Band of _ music marched down to his reeidenee and wit eerie up. They then went to the Hotel where Settle was stopping, and teok bim up also, and the two gentlemen ‘fode together to the place of speaking. "This was cemainly treating an opponent with courtesy. The speaking progressed about as usdal, Jadge Settle leading off in the de- bate. “When the Judge came to make "hia rejoinder, he very sean slowed bad temper; Accused Mayor Jobneon of having falsified the faete in regard to some difficalty there un a former occasion; aceuted Vance’s friends of insulting him, and eaid if one of his friends were to iu- » salt Vanee, he would descend from the stand, arreat him, tie him, and lead him off ; and that-he held Vanee responsible * for all the insults offered him. ~ Gov. Vance replied that he bad on all oceasions endeavored to preserve order; that he could not eollar, tie, and drag off his disorderly friends, as they were not likely to sabmit to that sort of thing. ‘That if he was to be held responsible for his friends he would no longer at- tempt to control them to give a res- pectfubbearing to his opponent.

It is a very shallow triek in figures, but na, nat, more than one in 20 thoasand of Mr. Dula’s colored cunstinents would detect the fraud, it is quite safe enough for them.

Pispah church, near six miles Station on the Western Road. A meeting was commenced on Saturday week, under ministerial care of Rev. H. W.

The ob- ject of the meeting is to send aid to the suffer- ing people of Savannah. raging there and the peoplefare destitute of the necessaries of life—we must help them. The Observer says :—The Young Men’s Chis- tian Association, at Savannah, has appealed to the Young Men’s Christian Association, in this city for aid to relieve the sufferers from yellow fever that has craped our Southern city in mourning and Woe. Savannah is terribly afflicted, and the maladay is making fearful ravages u her citizens, carrying off dozens daily to the grave. Let us remember too, that God’s hané may be laid upon os at any time, and we too, may have to cry to our fellow men for help. The health of our city was never better, and no great fire has swept over our homes ; 80 let us give from our income some- thing to ease the ish of those now linger- ing upon beds of sickness and pain, Coatribu- tions may be left with S. O. Smith at the drug store of T. C. Smith & Co., or with Prof. Geo. B, Hanna at the Mint. The Raleigh News says : The accounts which reach us over the wires and otherwise, touching the saffering which is existing in Savannah on account of the yellow fever, are distressing in the extreme, and the Macedonian cry goes up or nae og toes stricken city. Great desolation prevails, a the sad’ condition ee a ls ly to the citizens of other Ne tees etd. iladelphia, Baltimore, Ne, Augusta and Charleston have responded to their calls, and the Board of Aldermen of the eity of Char- lotte, in our own State, at a meeting last Wed- neaday afternoon, authorized the Mayer of favannah to draw on them for $300. They alxo appealed to their sister cities in North Carolina to give aid to the aufferera in Savan- nah, and the attention of the people of Raleigh is hereby called to the matter. Be sure and come out Thursday night pre- pared tohelp. ._Wehope the Mayor aod city fathers will be at the meeting and lend their aid as our neighbor cities are doing.

Iu the Samuer of 1816 three men liv- ing about three miles above the Falls saw a bear ewimming in the river. Thinking he would be a capital prize they started for him iv a large, substantial log canoe or dag-out. When they overtook him he seemed quite obliged for their attention, and quietly putting his paws on the side of the eanve, drew himself into it, notwith- standing that they vebemenly belabored him with their paddles. As he came in on one side two of the men went into the the water on the other side. The third, who may be called Fisher, could not swim, and naturally enongh felt somewhat em- barrassed. Much to his relief the animal deliberately sat down in the bow of the canoe facing him. As the noise of the rapids and roar of the Falls reminded bim that they. were ominously near Fisher resolved to take advantage of the truce and pull vigorously for the shore. But when he began to paddle the bear began to growl his objection, enforcing them at at the same time with an ominous grin. Fisher desisted fora while, but feeling their insidious approach to the rapide, be tried again to use his paddle. Bruin then raised hia note of disapprobation an oc- tave higher, and made a motion as if be intended to g-t down and “go for’ him The meu who swam ashore soon, however reappeared in another canoe, with a load ed musket, shot the bear, and ended Fish-~ er’s terrible susponse. ruin weighed over three hundred pounds. —Seribner. — ~~ off to He Smiles are not siniles only when the heart pulls the wires.

I secord him those tame household virtues whieb entitle him to the reepect of his neighbors and con- fidence of his family ; bat heean no more stem the torrent of Republican eorraption than he can awir nat the rapids of Niugara. Llis w history shoaws that he would not evea make an effort to do so. He bas been most happily called “a mau of tried subserviency.” A reformer in. these times must be made of stern material. He must have uo connection with, and be wader no ob- ligation to, the authors of the abuses which need reform. Above all things, he must not have consented: expressly or impliedly to the commission of the pab- lic wrongs which his duties as @ reformer would require hia to punish. When he comes to oppose wickedness in high places the consciousness that he himaeclf is in pari delicto will make even a sirong man us nervelees as infancy. To show how hurd it would be for a man like Mr, Hayes to resist the worst orders of bis own party, I must cite a case directly in point, and certainly within your recollection aa well as mine. In the cuse of Milligan you made an eloqueut and powerful epeceh before ¢ Supreme Court for those free principles which I, atthe seme time supported in my weaker way. You showed the indestrac- tible right of every citizen to a legal trial; you proved that Magna Carta did wot perish on the batzle field: you demon- strated by irrevistible logic that the Cuil: stitution was as eapreme after the war as it was before; yer eparned wich lofty contempt the bratal idea that iw wae extinguished by victory of the farere call rd out to defend is; «ud you closed with that grand peroration uu the Goddees of Liberty, whieh, fap ken in Atnens in the best days ef her “fierce Deuecracie,” would have “shook the arrenal and ful- minated over Greece.” These were not the words of a paid advoeate, fur you had voluut ered in the eave; nor the suds den emotions of 4 acuphyce, tor you had read and powdered the subject well. You speke the deliberate conclusions of your mind, and there is no doubt that ia your heart of hearts you believe them to be true this day. Yet when the reconstruction law was proposed you suffered yourself to be whipped iu, surrendered your ¢onscience to your party, and voted againat your re- corded convictions, for a measure that wallified every provision of the Conatitu- tion, whereby ten millions of people were deprived of rights which you knew te be sacred and inalienable. If this was your case, what sabservi- ency may not be expected from Mr, Hayes, when the party lash comes to be laid on bis back? Yon are his superior in every quality that holds a wan true to public dary. You have been carefully schooled iv the moraluy of the new testa. meat, you have lived all your life in the fall blaze of the gospel, you are gifted with a logical acamen which few can boast, and with moral courage far above the buman conscience speaks and orders (a ortidien.

The slightest “araft’ sett the sentitive patient into convalsions. Dur- ing Tuesday, the first day in the hos italy Mr. Hermann repeatedly tried to swallow food and drink; but bis’ efforts were not only unsuccesstul but they were extreme- ly painful. In the-spasms, which were only momentary, Hermann’s face turned almost black, his eyes stood out from their sockets, and the expression of his face be- came not only ghastly bat demoniac. “I have never seen anything Bo fright- ful,” said Dr, Rice. “Yet he was rational through all, and wae able to talk. clearly And sensible, He sometimes bemoaned hia fate ia having served all throngh the war, to die by the bite of a wretched little car.’’ All these symptoms continued up to 10 o'clock on Wéduesday morning, wheu the patient beeame slightly deliri- ous: _ He sprang at an aitendant, and was afterwards tied (loosely) to his bed. He foamed at the mouth, and his head and face became covered with froth, and all day long he spat in quantities so great that he covered the floor and the walls, soaked hia bed clothing. He became un- conscious in the afternoon and died very suddenly at 5 o'clock ia the evening Mr. Hermann was 54 years of age. The case was wholly in the hands of Dr. Rice, but while Mr. Hermann was in the hospital, his case attracted many of the most distinguished physicians of the city. Among them were Profs. Markoe, Dalton, Clarke, Mason, and Watts of the College of Physicians aud Surgeons. They followed the case with interest, aud it was with reluctance that the body was surrendered to Deputy Coroner Gold~ schmids yesterday. He found the iuter- nal organs in a very peculiar condition. The lungs were iu a state of hypostatic congestion, the cavities of the heart. were dilated, the liver was enlarged, the peri- toneal coat of the emall intestines was inflamed, the membranes of the braia were cougested, and there was an effusion of the watery portion of the blood, in addi- tion to a depusit of lymph. The base of the brain adbered to the akull as the re- sult of iuflammation. The spinal cord was congested, and (bere were hemorrhagic spots in the spinal canal. The cord was softened.

Bar- num’s Great show, will be very iuterest- ing to our readers : “We saw at ex~Mayor Barnum's : resi- dence, this moruing, a wonder of tattooing oa the person of Uaptain George Costen~ tenus, a descendant of a uoble Greek fam< ily, from the province of Albinia. His statement is that while he, toyether with an American and a Spaniard, were min~- ing iu Chinese ‘T'artary, in 1867, a rebel- lion arose, and the three joined the insur- gents. Ill luck coming to their cause, they were taken prieoners, and subjected to the tattooing process for three months, as a punishment in lien of baving their heads cut off. He says that the process causes such terrible paiu chat it required six men to bold him while one performed the nperation. Afier it was. completed, all three escaped from prison, but the American only survived five or six months. The Spaniard lost his eyesight, aud died in Morilla, but Captain Custeateuus sur- vives and is ingood health. ‘The tattooing was done with indigo and cinnabar, pro- ducing blue and red colore; and there is not a single point ou his body which is not covered with these colors, so that it ie impossible to discover what was the natural color of Lis skin except by bis eare and the soles of lis feet, which are the only paris they did uut tattoo. He appeared .at first sight ae though he were clothed with very close-fiuing tighta, made.of a shawl or of very soft, fine draggett.. Upou a.close inapection, how- ever, it is seen that he is entirely uaked, and that the apparent tights are an illu- sion. Moreover, bis whole persou is fuand to be covered with a variety of avimal figares, with their uames most ingevoas aud skillfal printed into the cuticle. Ou ‘ te and hs, othed, ‘thas: be’ mate tae through the public ys tthe “ itl Pe. en oe suspecting that he was not dre tights. © - . CAUGHT IN HIS OWN TRAP, Once two ministers of the. conversing on extemporaueous preagh. geo 4 - oa nit eeveal pads jn “Well,” said ¢ warm, “‘you are ruining yertieene ing your éermons and reading them: off. Your congregation cannot in ested in your preaching; and if you were called “pen to preach unex unless you could get hold of an old sermon, a be completely confused.” “ge ‘young divine used all his uence, bat in vain, to convince the she that the written sermons expressed. his own thoughts and feelings, and if- called upon he could preach extemporaneo “As we are of the eame fuith,” said young minister, “suppose you me next Sabbath monslads On a the pulpit you ean hand me a text from any part of the Bible, and I will eonvinee you that 1 cau preach withoat hav looked at the text before I stood Up. Likewise, 1 must be allowed the same privilege with you, and see who-willanake the best of it.” ; = The idea seemed to delight. the old geutleman, and it was immediately agteed upon. The following Sabbath, on mounting the pulpit, his senior brother handed him a slip of paper on which was ‘And the ass opened his Benen | spake;” from which he preached a glorious sermon, challenging the attention of his delighted hearers, and charming. his ‘old friend with bis eloquence. In the afternoon the young brother, who was sitting below the pulpit, handed his slip. After rising and opening the Bible, the old maa looked sadly arousd— ‘Am I not thine ass?” Pausing a few minutes, he ran bis finger throagh _ his hair, straightened hia collar, blew his nosé like the last trampet, and read aloud, ‘‘Am I not thine ass?” Another pause, in which a deadly silence reigned. After reading the third time, “Am I not thine ass?” he looked over the pulpit at his friend, and in a doleful voice said, **J think Iam, brother.’ —_— + ~~ H!DDEN TREASURE. Gold bunters who still dream of finding the treasure of Capt. Kidd shoald read the story that comes from Indiana and be encouraged. In the little town of Eminence, about twenty-five miles south- west of Indianapolis, two Iudiang. called Proper directions were given and the Indians departed. Never having seen his eallers before, the farmer was curious to kuow their object, and went to the tree by a short road and hid himself: in the bushes near by. Soon the inipumes s came, lantern in hand. They duga hole in the ground on one side of the tree—they seemed to know the very place to dig— and te the blank amazement of the farmer found a copper chest two feet opened it by the light of the Lest ek aah took out several bags of gold which at once poured into a strong satk provi- ded for the purpose. Astounded ‘at the tight, the farmer jumped from his. hiding place toward the men, but in an instant the light went oat, all was darkness, and the Indians disappeared through the bushes. He estimates that $10,000 were found in the chest, and it ia*beliewed the treasure wis secreted there many ‘ye ago by some anceetor of the Indians in bis flight before the enemy. rT —_—-——o~m 0 —-- OWNING A HOME.

A very impos- ing parade of items, figures and daes were given by the Zimes, and every soeessary formality complied with to make te pwblic believe the statement. There wid one glaring fact, however, that was obliged .o confront the reader which it was not possible the Times ww obseure, and that was the high charac- ier of the man whom it thus assailed.

It was taken up by Judge Jas, P. Sinnott, item by item, figure by figure, and »verything shown to be false from top to »oitom. 'TLe investigation and report is ‘ven in the newspapers, and we rather regret our inability to republish it, owing to ita great length. ‘The exposure is full and complete, so that the whole story ow goes out with well metited scorn. a The present enthusiastic temper in favor of Tilden, Vance and reform fas no ralle] since 1840. It sweept the coun- try then from Maine to Texas, and wiped out Martin Van Baren and the party he represented. It is clearly the same spiiit of that great civil revolution, proceeding om eases of a similar character, though uc offences of the party now in power are a thougand times greater than were those Jaid to the charge of Vao Buren and his frieuds. Joun M. Moneneap was then the whig candidate for Governor of the State. ran ; Like Vance, he was the people’s eofified in bim and loved him. His own heart, like Vance’s, was full of sym- pail with the people ; he was true to them, and they were true to him. He carried Rowan that year, against R.

It isa fact, that dancing has been practiced in all agea, by the heathen, as well.as christian people, both ae a_reli- gious service, and as an amusement. |e is a fact, that as an amneement it ia eesentially worldly in spirit, object and aim. Ji is afact, that the wise aud good have always coodemned it as a form of evil to be avoided, and looked upoo it as oe of the by-paths of ihe world, which though strewa with flowers, lead into the broad road tw ruin. It is a fact that, as far back as the days of Job, it led to erynelecss of God and a disregard for bis lawa. It is a fact that he makes it character. istic of the wicked to dance and rejoice at the sound of the timbrel, harp and- or- an, . His words are, Job 21: 11, 15: “They seud forth their little ones like a ock, And their children dange, They take the timbret.aud the barp, And rejoice at the sound of the organ. They spend their days in mirth, And jo a moment go down to the grave, Therefore they say ute God— * Depart from us. For.we desire vot the knowledge of the ways, What is the Alinighty that we should serve him? And what profit should we have if we pray unto him ?’” Tt ia a fact that Tsajah gives somewhat a similar description of the ancient feasts among the Hebrews, in which God was torgettea and his law ignored. leis a fact that Dr. Albert Barves, in his comment on the custom spoken of by Isaiah, says, applying his words to ow times; “God is commonly forgotten iv such places, and even the sweetest mu- sic is made the occasion for stealing the affections from him, and of iuflaming the paseions, instead of being employed to soften the feelings of the soul and raise the beart to God.” It is a fact that two of the Apostles, Paul and Peter, put sach amusements amoug the works of the flesh and de- nominate them “banquetings and reve- linga.”’ Iv is a fact, that the most noble and Virtaous among the heathen coudemned dancing because of its tendency to demor- alig@ and debase those who engaged in it, Cato is said to have always left the thea- tré when dancing was introduced. Cicero haa the credit of saying; “No oue dan- ces who is not drauk or mad.” It is a fact, that daucing is a favorite amugement in the lowest dens of vice, infamy, aud crime. At is a fact, that it is the principal pas- tim@in’such places, where wretehed be- ings fallen from virtue, are seen frantically dancing their way down to the lowest deep of the bottomless pit. It is a fact that scarcely a company can assemble anywhere, even of cbil- dren,..for sogial enjoyments, byt that some ure-loving votary myst pros poag@ @ dance as a meave ot passing away ie The reason for this ja, jn many gases . . . ’ that the seat of - intelligence has been transferred from the head to the heels, and, in every cass, it is because the heart is devoid of the sauctifyiug influences of the spirit of God. It iss fact, that young ladies will als low diberties in tke dance which the would uot allow elsewhere, and for this reagon that some satirist in his deeciiption of owe form of the danee, at | ast, calls it “bagging act to music.” ‘Lis a fact, that all who delight to en- gagé@ id the dance, in whatever cirele of Buc.ety, are induced to do so from enue and the same mative, the love of pleasurable eXcitement due to the commingling of the sexes. This is shown by the fact that no dans cing parties are ever specially gotten up for the amagemeat of ove sex alone; for every One can testify, who has had an experience iu the matter, that it is | business dancing with @ pgrtuer who the game sex with one’s self. that if the sexes did iniefigingte fu the dance, it would be shorn of its fasciuativu, ite excesses, end the jpy ble evils thas follew in ite - .

Who hae levied and collected enormous taxes, given away millions of acres of our pablic lands, plan- dered the National treasury, equandered our revenues, paralyzed our industries, cloeed Our mines, rolling mills, furnaces, forges and workshops, and brought our Te’ to. starvation, baukruptey and rain; thrown thousands of hotest meu out of work and banished Wem from their homes to “tramp” upon every 1boroughfare and highway in the land in’ parsait of em- ployment t Is it not, the Repablicau party that is responsible for all this stag- nation in basiness ; for all this misery and woe? Shall we give thia party which has been guilty of these crimes, of this ont- rageous career, a new lease of power? Shall we vote for Hayes aud Wheeler and thus perpetuate the-reign of Grant- ism? Shall we be drawn into a decoy movement ard cajoled into the firee ol voting fur Cooper and Carey, who cannot poesibly obtain a single electoral vote, and thereby aid iu continuing the Repub lican party in power? Or shall we act the part of sensible men, and vote in a manne? that’our ballots will count in the great battlé for reform which will come offin November. Is it uot folly, iv i not madness in us, who ‘have stffered such deep wrougs at the hauds of the Republican party to waste our strengtir upon this’ Peter Cooper movement, which can bring us no reltef. Shall we vot act VWke wise men vote With the ariny of reform tha now marching on under the leadership ot those fearlees, gallant’aod honest leaders ‘Til- den and Hendricks} ‘There ia but one escape from ont present difficuliy; there ia but oué toud which wl] lead us out of our feartal condition, but ofie pouree left for us to parsue, and that is to vote for Tilden aud Hendrick’. Business and workivg men, shall we'not do this, and achieve ‘a vietory decisive aud com-~- plete ? In the event of the election of Tilden and Hlendricks, a‘uew era will dawn up on us, which will revive trade, set the industries of the uation in motion, giriny employment to laborers, mechanies aud artisans in every voeation and calling. Vote for Tildeu, Hendricks and a crestor. ation of our erippled industries and a general revival of business. gaps: . - ae ee <<. surg ae Ticced to be Delivered lo the United States | Authorities, A gentleman who professed to be fully io- Gapre _ ee that it was nut true that the Boss would be tirst delivered tu New York author.ties. cuicou fy he said. was that he should be turued over to the Uulled States dathorines in (Wash. ington, they having conducted allfhe nego- tiations which led'to the ‘arrest avd Atetura of Tweed. ‘Thess negotiations. he further said, included an agreempat on the part of the United States tw arrest and turn over to Spanish Goverument a. certain coutractor who abseoaded from Cuba, taking with him a large sum belonging to the Spauish Gov- ernment.

Bot through there continued to be an active demavud among the idolaters for the Bibles that were gratuitously dia- tribated, hoe eonverts turn up, At last the missionaries determined to undertake an investigation of his strange state of things. It was a melancholy relation for them, when they discovered that the quick-witted heathen were not giving themeelves up to the pious study of their free Bibles, but were using them in the try, and in April, 1830, he received. bis appointment in the Philadelphia Cenfer- ence. con, and in 1834 as elder. gaged in his labors, as a pastor, he began the study of medicine, and in 1842 re ceived the degree of M.

Hol- den's reply to the statements of Mr. Bailey, published last week, in regard to _ the murder of J. W. Stephens and the Holden—Kirk war. Mr. Bailey affirms and Mr. Holden denies. The reader can decide between them. It would seem, however, that it devolves or Mr. Bailey ‘to show, if he caa, corroborative facts in support of his statements. We have no doubt he detailed truly the impres- sions he received from the conversa- tions had with Holden, and we think there must have been attendant circum- stances producing these impressions which were not given in bis statement of last week. Otherwise the case niust be passed on as aquestion of veracity be tween himself and Holden. ———___~gpo—___ THE BAILEY—HOLDEN MATTER. | We published last week, Rev. C. T. Bailey's statement of a conversation be- tween himself, and W. W. Holden, in reference to the Holden-Kirk war and the murder of J, W. Stephens. The readers of this paper have doubtless read Mr. Bailey's card with the foterest the subject entitles it. We have to add that from all the accounts we are able to ob- tain, Mr. Bailey is a man whose word may be relied on with confidence. We publish in this paper, as a simple act of justice and fairness, that part of Holden's reply adverts to the state- ments of Mr. Bailey, and is a denial in toto of that gentleman’s account; and have only to add to jt, that a man whose political life is but a bandle of in tencies and falsehoods, erowned wit! of the moat wanton assaults on liberties of the people of the State ever perpetrated in our country, and who, for his crimes was expelled from office, fs hardly a competent witness in the case before us, He trates it step by -step—thongh its dealings with Arkansas, ‘Texas, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, South and North Carolina—and a blacker record of tyran) ny and oppressioncan nu where be found. He shows the convection between the wicked policy of the adminietration and ihe present financial distress of the coun- try as cause and effect. He shows the inevitable totabruin that most follow the continuance of that party in power. Hence the imperative necessity for a change. There can be no reformation without a change, ‘The same party will continue the same sort of government, and there will be no bope and no peace. Peace and quictness reign in every South- ern State under the control of the Demo- cratic party. But in every State ruled by the radicals there is lawlessness and public licentiousness. ‘There is no peace there, but all is in a state of dreadful sus- pense anda fearful looking for of evil. The taxes levied, collected, and. wasted by a party without property, is donsuming the substance of the people and driving them to despair. The speaker was listened to with rapt interest, especially by the more intelligert portion of his audience, which, though it filled Meroney’s Hall, was not near large enough for such an occasion. He reeeiv- ed complimentary calls at his lodgings at the Boyden House from a number of our citizens both before and after the delivery of his speech, and we trust will have no occasion to regret hia visit to our town. - Mr. H. H. Hetrer is pushing his colonization theme in the county canvases, in this county and Davie, running ‘as an independent candidate for the Senate. We are pot eurprise to learn that his speeches attract attention, and that be meets with some at every precinct who aceepts his views and plans on this eab- ject as worthy of consideration. Indeed, it has come to pass that many white peo-~ ple of the country would willingly part company with the negro forever, and help pay his expenses to some land of perpet- ual fruits and flowers where he might en- joy to the full, the bliss of idlenesa. Mr. Helper wants to see them happy in e land of their own in order that white folks bere may be happy without them. He is try~ ing to get the ball in motion. It remains to be seen what he ean accomplish alone. If the people will elect him he will bring the subject before the Legislature, and through that body endeavor to have it brought up in Congress ; and finally, if sanctioned by the people of the country, he expects some efficient national scheme to facilitate the work. It is a pleasant subject to talk about, when you are not busy, and at some fatare day will proba- bly assume a graver aspect than there is any reason to expect will result directly from the labors of Mr, Helper, thuagh he is laying bimeelf out iu his zeal to advance ub. When the subject comes up for serious thought and action, it is probably there will be several elements of strong opposi- tion found to exist. First, the white men of the radical party, if that party sheuld then be in existence, will want to keep the negroes here to vote. Southern white radicals would aboat as soon hear Gabriel blow his horn as to see the negroes leave, Ob, bat there would b2 mourning ! Again, there is @ very large part of the Conservative people of the country who are conscientious in regard to a faithful obsetvance of Constitutional obligations, rights and privileges who would vigor- ously resist any encroachtiient on the rights of the citizen, notwithstanding his color, previous condition or present worth. lessness. He would say, let the negroes alone, for you may jump out of the frying pan into the fire in your wild hant after a better laborer, besides he has rights which mast be respected. And again, the negro himself may ob- ject to going away to Africa, or elsewhere. Like the little ball harnessed to a tart, of which the Charlotte Observer tell us, whieh cvolly resolved he would not move apother inch. His master clubbed him over the head and all abou:, but still he would not go. At last some one said, “twist his tail!” And his master caught this caudal member and twisted it. It wae a violent remedy but it roused the little ball, and be carried himself and the tart ~jout of town like a streak. Bat you can’t treat the negro that way, for be has got no tail to twist, We ased to have a song that every body was so fond of that they wore it out in a few months — “Wait for the wagon; Wait for the wagon * 3 TOs << o Sol “ . wath ¢ ts Bs tg 5 i ys in R as - eal qh She ; a iy were tounite in the effort tocarry it oat, hots ‘sited om" enc ; e ae a or a Prev coun-. ifel the they could not complete the work ander ten or twenty years, The preese eration would not pro ~ a a a a = whieh mnst be finished on the 7b of next month, ‘They have undertaken to throw out of office a hundred thousand bad men who bave been and are yet plandering the country.

THE BLOODY SHIRT A FAILURE—TESTI- MONY OF THE LEADING NEUTRAL NEWSPAPER. [From the N. Y. Herald of Sept. 19.] The sudden and general determination to carry the campaign on the Southern issae, shows uncoutrollable alarm among the Republican leaders. They are panic atricken. They have compared notes, and their couclasion appears to be that on a fair canvass, on the real issues of the year, they will lose, and in desperation the word has gone out to fling the “bloody shirt” to the breeze and make the appeal, not to the reason, the . honesty and pa- triotiem of the country, but to prejudice, hatred, fear and ignorance. This is the way it looks to cool observers ; and even it thie were not the correet theory of their policy, it is still true that euch ie the im- presvion tt makes. Shrewd political cal- culators say, if the Republican managers were not badly frightened they would not force an obsolete and a hateful issue up- on the country. If they felt sfedetaicty sure of winning they would argue ; it is because they feel themselves weak that they take to vituperation and denanci- ation. The policy of denunciation, this ex clusion of reform and concentration on the Southern issue is a blunder of the Republican leaders in several ways. It alienates a large mass of voters; it cre- ates a feeling of distrust and alarm among the calculating or “loose” voters, and it places the party io a falxe relation to the living issues of the day. It may exas perate and alarm timid and ignorant voters, but it cannot carry the country. — No thoughital voter believes that the or hart if the Democrats should come iu- to power, and that sort of nonsense ex- cites as mach conteapt in sensible men country would be seriously eudangered | 1, ae a eee re . . a t 4 Le or Connecticut. | : We have in the above cetimate given the Republicans Ohio. If they should lose thut State, but carry North Carolina aa we have sapposed, Hayes would have but 135 votes; and aalosing Ohio would auppese alco, loging. Indiana, he would have to come East for 42 votes, which means that to win, he mast in that case carry, New York, Connecticat and New Jersey or fail of an election. It will be seen from ‘this that ‘Tilden can he elected wii lout the aid of Indiana or Obin, as he will certainly earry New York, Connectient and New Jersey. As to the assertion that the Republicats may fairly hope to win’North Carolina, that is all nonsense, Nothing. is more certain than that Tilden and Vanee will carry this State.

This supremacy fs attested by the pablic TESTIMONY OF MUSICIANS GENERALLY in America, and a very large number in Europe, published in full in the Catalogue and Circulars | Company ; also, by the remarkable and . how Entirely unprecedented Award to them of highest ors at competitive Exhibitions in BUROPHE AS WELL AS AMERICA.

There are few things in this line with- in the scope of the wants of this section of the country that they are not ready to supply on shoft notice. With patterns ready made, and facilities fur preparing promptly others that may be needed, they can execute almost any casting and finish it np in superior style—large orsmall.

They have recently put in a “Universal Wood Worker” Machine, which almost entirely dispenses with the carpenters’ work-bench and tools. Their various wood working machinery togethér, re- duces the carpenter to a mere fitter, and joiner, all the heavier parts of other operations being performed by steam power at a speed and with a neatness that is surprising to those who have never looked through such an establishment.

AMENDMENTS TO ARTICLE II Six amendments are proposed to ar- and the | Inwa, Says a ticle HI, of the Constitution. The amend ment to sections 5, alters the time of the meeting of the General Arsembly to the firet Wednesday in January next after their election. ‘The object of this ie to get rid of the vacation for the Christmas holidays, and the delay and expense incident thereto. This change will be particularly beneficial to farmers who st- tend the legislatare. They will not be called off trom their crops, when they are gathering and marketing them. Sections 4 and 8 are vbselute, aud should be abrogated. Our Constitution should not ge down to posterity encum- bered with dead matter. Section 27 ia proposed ta he amended, eo as to make the terms of office of Sen- ators aud Representatives commenee at the time of their eleetion, Thia, of course, can meet with no cbjection, from avy source whatever. ‘rhe amendment proposed to section 29, merely abrogates the obsolete parts of thie section; aud needs no argument in its favor, ‘be moet important ordinance in re-~ lation to this article, proposes au addi-~ tiovual section, by which the sessions of the General Assembly are restricted to sixty days, the per diem at $4.00, the mileage to 10 cents per wile, aud the limit of an extra session to twenty days, with the eime per diem and mileage.— This is solely in the interest of economy. This amendment would save fifty thou- sand dollars a session, and the weight of taxation would be proportiouately ligbtened. This cutting down of expenses, no one will object to, Everybody shoaid favor ajeasures that tend to reduce the burden of taxation, under which we have been groauing sinee the Radicals began rob- bing the State in 1868. ‘This saving cau be effected without in the least affecting or crippling legislation.

At least, this is how things used to be. They are changed now. One evening in June, when the editor went home to din ner, bis wife said : “George, | have some news for you ” “Ab, my love, is it exclusive }” “Our neighbors are going away for the summer to Perry Springs.” “T hope they are going to take that parrot with them.” “No; and what do you think? They had the impadence to come and ask if we would take care of the bird for them while they were gone. Did you ever? I'd like lo wring its neck for them while they are A smile that was horrible to see illumi nated the editor's face as be hissed iu a low, concentrated voice : “My dear, we should always try and return good forevil. I will take care of that bird.” Next day the minister weut away and | the editor set himself assiduously to train | the parrot inthe way he should go. He had a room padded and the walle deaden- ed, and he hung the cage apin it. ‘Vhen he went and hired two A.D. 'T. meesen- gers and bought a borse syringe and a water barrel, and installed the boys in charge. “My sons,” he said, “little par- rots that shouldn't sivg but will sing must be made not to sing. Whenever that bird lets off a cheep just syringe him with ice water.” The boys carried out the instructions sv faithfully that io less than a week the bird was as silent as the tomb. “Aha!” said the editor, “his mind is now a ‘fabula rosa,’ and prepared to reevive proper instruction. He must now be taught, and first I shall attend to my mu- sical education.” Accordingly he hired a man from a variety show on Canal street to teach that parrot to whistle all the pop- ular airs of the day, snch as “Yum! Yow! Yum !"’ “Saw wy leg off!” “As 1 was going over the hill, | saw a maid milking a billy goat.” ‘Then the vocalist taught that parrot all the'cries of the street ped- dlers, and how to swear in five print with- ont the dee’ of glasses. “Now,” axid the editor triumphantly, “If I can teach hiw the value of time I shall! be well repaid.” By diut of syringing the bird with ico water when he offended and comforting him with almonds, he reduced the bird to the status of a teathered alarm clock set to go off with guerring regularity at 11:30 P. M., and 10:30 A. M., and warranted not to run down until the whole perform~ vance had beeu gone throagh with accord- ing to programme. The parrot's educa- tion bad cost him a heap of money. aad much trouble, bat he did not regret it. A week ago yesterday the miuister re- turned by the 7:50 P. M., train, and re» ceived his precious bird. The editor went home on the half past 10 ear, lit bis cigar opened the window, and with a calm smile of expectancy listened. The clock had just struck half past LL when there came the yell of ‘Fire!’ that probably startled every body in the block except fhe editor. “Lie still, my love,” be said to hie wife, “it is only the parrot. ‘There is no danger.” ‘be fearful ery was re- peated, and the editor heard sounds as if the minister and his family were abs ek out of bed, then windows were opered ou all sides, and he bad the pleasure of see- ing the man who kept the key of the sig- nal box (and wasn’t insured) tear along the etreet in his slippers and tarn in an alarm. A few minutes afterwards the fire bells rang and the engines came tear- ing ap to the house, whence the shouts of “Fire!” were issuing. ‘he mivisier had te go down and explain, and one of the drivers remarked audibly that he'd panech the old snooser's head off for’a uiekel.

Obebslan,lcten e the mn. Even to me, who no longer believed in a hereafter, this seemed to be a very solemn step. And a = ehurch over which I so long pre~ a8 pastor, so of whom I had led down iato the wie of baptism, and to whom I bad so often administered the See? it soone ‘e ipa, that this event ve appeared nothing less than shocking and awful. Aad yee it is a sin- gular feet that there has never been a prayer offered in the Union Park (now the Fourth) Pogtiot, nay iu any other charch in this city, for m recovery from infidelity. On ‘the other band; the Boston Baptist paper, the Watchman, expressed the liveliest satisfaction that I b adjur- ed the Christian faith and was going to hell. I have no idea, therefore, that I can secure an interest in the prayers of the Baptist; but [ ask to be remembered in the prayers of the Christians at large who may attend Mr. Moody’s meetings. — I make this request because for several mouths past I have felt that there was, afier all, a great truth somewhere in the orthrodox Chritian religion, though, as yet, I cannot define nor comprehend it. But my present view of Christianity ex~ erts no influence over my heart or life, and if [ should die iu my present state of mind I should, if the Sele Testament je trae, sink into an endless hell. I have also, as an incidental motive, the desire to receive a demonstration of the truth of religion by experiencivg this highly im- probable change in auswer to prayer. I make this request in this public manner because I am a pablic charueter, and my case is of aii duacianees to the cause of religion, My defection has shaken the faith of many, to my knowledge, and a woltitude all over the country, whom I have never seen nor received letters from, must have been more-or less affected by ft. 1 might suggest more particularly what I wieh prayed for, 1 would request that prayers be offered that I might recover my faith in the Christian character; that ie, that I might become convinced that the belief and subjective experience of the Ubristian religion make mea in the long run, more truthful, more honest, more jast, more merciful, more loving, more forgiving than other people. For I must coptess that an experience of sixteen years ia the Christian pastorate has well nigh convinced me that Christianity simply in- tensifies human natare; so that while Chris tians love their friends more than other people do, and when once displeased are the most cruel and anserupulous class of the community. Florence McCartuy. Chicago, September 25. ee Ce THE BRITISH POST OFFICE. 0 Tbe London Standurd says: The Post.master General has just issued bis anoual report, showing the work done in 1875. By this it appears that, io the course of the year, more than a. thousand millions of letters passed through the Post Office, being at the rate of thirty-one for every man, woman, and child in the United Kingdom. Iu addition, there were more than ¢ighty-seven millions of post ecards, and nearly two bundred and eighty millions of book packets and newspapers. ‘| Compared with 1874, letters show an in- crease exceeding four per cent., post ecards nearly eleven per cent., and book peckets and the newspapers eight per The figures vary considerably for the three pacts of the Kingdom. ‘Thus England sends thirty five letters per head, while Ireland sends only thirteen, and ‘twenty-six. The increase of letters'in England, compared with the previous year; ig more than five per cent., of post cards between eleven and twelve per ceut., and of book pockets aud newspapers nearly ten percent. ‘I'he number of reg- iotered lettergin the United Kingdom dur- ing the’ yeur was about one in 234 of the whole number of letters. The number of levers received in the Retarned Letter Office was very nearly'in the same pro< portion, being about one in 232. But it was found possible either to return to the writers, or to re-issue nearly. nine-tenths of the whole number thus received.

At the head of the subscription list are the names of her Brit- ish Majesty’s Minister and the Members of he eerie with those of the Hon, Caleb Cushing, American Minister, and his Secretary. It is, therefore, not a nas tive or Spanish place of worship in any sense. foreign residents Oa the return of these from their vacation, the Rev, Mr, J amieson, of the Free Church of Scotland, who act- ed as chaplain, wisbed to give notice that the services would be resumed. Hereto~ fore all such notices had been sent to the press, aud no difficulty whatever had heen met with in getting them inserted as or- dinery advertisements. When the clergy- man applied to the semi-official Corres. pondencia de Espana to publish a notice to the effect that divine service would be held at the chapel on the next Sabbath, the manager of the paper declined to do so, and declared that he could not assume the responsibility of anything connected Protestants doctrines. ‘Che same appli- cation was made to the Liberal paper, the Imparcial, which has taking a leading part in defence of religious toloration, aud a polite refusal was also given by the editors. The cousequence was that very few residents and only part of thé visitors in the hotels could be notified of the res openiug of the church. ‘The native Protestants are under the closest restriction in regard to their ser- vices. ‘They are not allowed to have any notice on the outside of their places of worship, nor even to have the door op- en, lest some passer-by should be attract- This is the religious liberty which Roman Catholies believe in, and the only kind that they allow where they have the power. Nay, they would not allow Christians to assemble for worship, even in the most private manner, if they could help it. They are doing all that they can to suppress and destroy Protestant~ ism in Spain, root and branch, even in the face of the new Constitntion. And yet Roman Catholies in the United States of America profess to be the friends of civil and religious liberty, one would think from their professions they were the only friends or tivacty, But look at their history where they have had the power; look at the limited regions where they have sway now, aud their trae principles will be apparent to any but the wilfully blind.—New York Observer. —— ~~ From the Cradle to the Grave. — An English generation on the march from the cradle to the grave is an instract- ive spectacle, and we have it carefully presented to us in the report by Dr. Farr. Let cs trace the physical fortane which any million of us may reasonably expeet. The namber to begin with is made up of 511,745 boys and 488,255 girls, a dis~ proportion which will by and by be res dressed by the undue mortality .of the boys, and will be reversed before the close of thé strange, eventful history. More than a quarter of these children will die before they are fiye years old—in exact number, 141,387 boys and 121,795 girls. The two sexes are now nearly on a level. The next five years will be much less fatal. Iu the succeeding five years— from ten to fifteen—the mortality will be still further reduced. Indeed, for both sexes, this is the most healthy period of lite ; the death-rate, however, is lower for boys than for girls. Tere will be some advance in deaths in the next five years, and still more in the five which follow, but 634,045 will certainly enter on their twenty-sixth year. Before the uext ten years are at av end, two-thirds of the women will have married. ‘I'he death’ during that period will be 62,052, aud of these no fewer than 27,134 will be caused by consumption. Between thirty- five and forty-five a still larger “death- toll” will be paid, and littie more than half the original band—in exact num- bers, 502,915—will enter on their forty~ sixth year. Hach succeeding decade, up to seventy-five, will now become more fatal, and the numbers will shrink terri- bly. At seventy-five, ouly 161,124 will remain to be struck down, and of these, 122,559 will have perished by the eighty- fifth year of the march. The 38,565 that remain will soon lay down their burdens; bat 2,153 of them will straggle on to be pinety-five, and 223 to be 100 years old. Finally, in the 1y8th year of the course, the last soli life will flicker out. Such, then, is the average let of a million English men and women.—Cas sell's Magazine. ————_~+ a> —_—_ “When I was travelling in Massachusetta, had a seat with the driver, who, on stopping at the post-office, saluted an ill- looking fellow on the with, ‘Good morning, Jugde, Sander; I hope yeu e well, NTI sues] ora ed by the singing and induced to enter. |. some twenty years ago,” said a traveller, “|. —_—~ VANCE & SETTLE AT HILLSBORO. mea a A String of Transparencies. * nae , [Special Tefegram to the Sentinel. ] HILissono, Oct. 12, 1876.

The Newark “Daily says; A_prom- inent lawyer recently pave tas fullowing definition of the law; “It is simply an effort to shift the responsibility the decision. ‘I'he jury of laymen, by the pleadings, make up their verdic with the understanding that if there is anything wrong about it the 8 Court, composed of lawyers, will make it all right. ‘lhe Supreme Coart settles it according to law, with the understanding that the laymen of the Court of Agomle will adjust the error. The Ooart of Er. _ rors orders a new trial, and it comes P to where it started, and begins again the jury of laymen. It is simply a mill that goes round and round, and grinds up the property of fouls.”” ——__~qpo—_—___. Too Fast, In our day, both married and si people live too fast. A bachelor now need of an income such as would once have satisfied a_man with a family; and the busband and father requires for bis single household the means that twenty. years ago would have sapplied twa fam- ilies, if not three.

It i« a fact that, a large number of the more intelligent and better intormed citizens of Kowan and Davie coun- ties were Opposed to the nomination of Capt Caawford, That opposition exisia to-day, and itais as strong now as it wasthen. If the Be- aminer believes that my course as an Indepen- dent Reform candidate deserves censure, then, the Independent negroes who are writing and xperking in fayor of Reform in North Carotina ata! elaewhere, shoald alee be condemned. If the Examiner thinks the people ought ta vote against their honest convictions, for the regu- ler nominee, then, the negroes should not be eébsured for voting a8 one man, the Radical ticket. The Examiner and the public, will, I trust, pardon # personal allusion here to myself. | claim to be the author of the Reform move- ment in North Carolina—see my addresmes and letters published in-February 1872—of which the late Hon. D. M. Barringer, then the Demo- eratic chairman of the State Executive Commit- tee, widte as follows :— “Ra etau, Feb. 29, 1873. i. H. Hevper, Esq. fully with you as to the importance of the “Liberal Republican Movement” and think that ie action at Cincinnati mav_ probably name. Hie neXt President of The United States. Altthe eléntents ‘opposed to corruption, in- eficiency and misrule, ought to unite to defeat the party in power, vow #o grossly abusing the great trusts of the Nation and endangering the free principles of the government. You may rest udsared the platform at Greensboro’ will whatever party, to stand upon logether. Your exce telling letters are being pubtial- ed _. They aré ateong and to the point.” Again, I re-eatablixhed the Raleigh Register in 1367, tn tlie sole interest of the peoples It labored for (Universal Amnesty and gradual negro suffrage. It oppored the severe con- Gecation and proscriptive clanses which were sought to be incorporated into our present Coyastitution by carpet-baggers, anc the carpet- rs, Abbout and Heaton, admitted that ita articles were jit antl wise enough to prevent said clauses irom being incorporated in the Constitution. Again, | established the“Hoklea Record” in the spring of 1868, expressly to write down Holden and the Constitution. And ogain, I established the Salisbury Tribune ia 1372, for the purpose of writing up Democratic Reformes At theserefforta of Reform 1 have lost more than $5.000, in all which l have been ins“teague” with nothing in the world but Re- form, and I am not in “league” with any permon oe thing wor but Reform. - Have Ino rights as a Reformer, Mr. Stewart deserving the respect and confidence of the peo ? ne a Reform ‘cafdidate for the State Senate, I amin favor Firt, of Colonizing the negroes ; Secondly, of the election of Tilden and Hen- dricks, Vance and Jarvia, and the Ratification ofthe proposed Constitutional Amendments ; Thirdly, of a law that ahall reguiate labor ; Fourthly, ef a law that ehall require ery.man to show his tax receipt before rat- ing 2 y post isa relic.of barbariem, vet, it« on would prove a great moralizer at the present time, and I am for that, But Colonization is the pre-eminently great question befory the people of Rowan and Davie, and they are for it.

Nature, habit, sutnioh, have drawn in- delible lines of this distinction’ een them.” Now that the negrves are free, colonization is in order. Again, Mr, Jefferson said: Personally T aw ready and desiroun to make any sacrifice which shall insure the but complete reti from the State, and effectutlly, at the same time entabliah ; safety’ But | have not perceived the. growth of this disposition in the rising generation, of which I once had sanguine hopes, I leave It, there- fore, to time, and not at all without hope thay the day willcome éqhally desirably and wel- come fo tisfaa to them.” That time has come, Mr. Stewart, so™let us all go to work. Again, Mr. Jeffernon said: » “Going fiom a country porsessing all.the neefal ars they might be the means of traneplaming them among the inhabitants of Africa, and would thas carry back to the cenntry of their origin thé seeds of civilization.” Mr. Clay, the father of culonization in Liberia Of the utility of a total separation of the two incougraous portions of our population tler- writen ia none have ever doubted.” ' . . . .

Mr. Lincoln said to a deputation of negroes in 1862: “Why should not the people of your race be colonized 2?) Why should they not leave this country? ‘This is perhaps the first ques- tion for consideration. You and we areadifferent race?” Mr. Lincoln aleo said: “1 did not at any time say I wan in favor of negro suffrage. Twice—once substantially, and once expresely —I declared against it. J am notin fevor of negro citizenship.” Again, Mr. Lincoln said : Il am not and never have been, in favor of making voters or jurors of negrves nor,of qual- ifiving them to hold office; nor w intecmarry with whiten; and I will sey | farther, in asklition to this, that there ie a physical erence hetween the white and black r whieh 1 beliewe will forever forbid. the twa racea living together on terms of social and po- litical equality.” These quotations are given here as additlon- al and greater reasons than any 1 ean produce why the negroes should aud must be colonized. >, RR fully, 1.

The voters of Rowan and Davie Coun- ties. are notified, and it is desired they will pay particular attention to the fact, that"H. H. Helper bas had his tickets privjed thas, for Davie county : For Senate—30:b District : ll. HW. HELPER, Vor the House of Representatives : CHARLES PBICE. For Bowan he bas followed the same form only putting iu the names of Jobn 8S. Henderson and James S. McCabbius, iv the place of Charles Price. “The voters of these Counties should wnoderstand that Mr. Helper has doue this on his own motion, and without any consultation with or the approval of Messrs. Price, Heuderson aud McOub- bius. The Republican gjcket fur Commission- ers in Rowan county, has on it the names of two of our candidates, Mr. D. A. Davis aod Mr. D.C.

The suggestio fulsi method of warfare is so wuch meaner thau any other a8 that it adds vile cowardice to him who prac- tices it.

If all trouble there will come to a speedy end, aud the people will again devae themsétves to the peaceful pursuits of life. The reign of terror and of robbery will close whenever they cast out the radical wolves who havefor eight or ten years fattened on the spoils of the innocent peo- ple of the State. This bas been the result in Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama aod Georgia—everywhere in the South—and will always be the same whenever the work of expulsion is fully carried oat. These facts alone ought to exert a con- trulling inflaence on the miud of the colored voter, and it would, if he under- stood them ‘in ‘all their foree. Bat there is another reason and itis a vital one: The colored man must cease to be s mere voting machine in the poli- tica of this county, or they are domed to to' see much troable. ‘hey will not be tolerated as hulding the balyuce of power, Their queitude deprnls on dividing cheir voice between existing par: ties of the white race. Whea they band gether in ove party against the Whites of any party they tafse up an edemy against themselves; aud just in proportion as this is done, is their happiness cudangered. Their quiet rest ia thie country as a home, ean only be preserved by learning to look at and vete on questions which divide the public miud according to their merits. A black man's party is bouud to go down and out before a white mau’s party; aud he is a deadly euemy to the black man who tries to array them in that way against the white people. The radicals have done this ever since the war, and they have raised up all the enmity they could betweeu the two races. ‘The have been the canse of all the trouble between races The negroes in many of the Southern States have ai last seen that the radicals were leading them to ruin, and thousands ot them have cut loose from that party. They are now dividing their votes, and identifying themeelves with the white This is undoubtedly the wisest Ir people thing they have done since the war fidence between the races, and heuce we see in those States peace and quiet. What we have said on this subject is any black men who may chance to read this paper. It is said for their good, and for the good of all, white and black, as all are deeply interested in securing harmony and mutuyl confidence asthe only guar- rantee of public peace. ——~aaeor————_ REMARKABLE.

STEAM CULTIVATION.” © The following article is reproduced from | o, }an >| » Kugtish agricultara journal, try; Oue rer steam is that it is a tié-saver, The importance of this bas not been ly recoguiged in agriculture. That time is money has passed into an axiom in trade; but, some- how or another, agriculture has been look. | ed upon as not a trade, and the impor~ tanee of husbanding time in regard. to’ it bas been underrated or hardly recognised. And yet agriealtare, more than any trade, depeuds fo? its success ow times and sea- sous. Not ouly is it true that as we sow go shall we reap, bat the amoant and quality of the reaping is, to a very large exteut, dependent on the time of sowing, and #» in degree of all other operations, take the vitally imporvaut one of plowing, ‘There is not ouly a time to plow, bot the more promptly all vacant land is. brokeu up the richer and the better the seed bed; for time and climate are themselves the best cultivators, and the sooner they can get to the land the richer and more mellow it will be fur the coming erup. Now, steam can wake longer bours thao horses, and do ten times the work in one fal? the time. The inion machines do not jre, steel joints or boves do not wear out. With coal for food and heat for motive force, the steam plow or cultivator goes up and down, back ward and forward, trom dawe to dark, till the entire field is swash ed or plowed. Aud not only does it make longer boars, but it does better work. Its power ie equal to anything needed on the land whow she had so summarily put out of the way. ‘This near association wiih [rene proved too much for Brad. He | came thirating for vengeance, and dowi- ciled himself in the same honse with her to collect facts on the strength of which to bring her to the balter, and scttle cer- tain “property matters” with the old wan, who, aceording to another brother, ‘is wortpa “cool million.” But once within the ephere of Irene’s charms, Brad suc- cumbed, and they became “mighty sweet on each otber.”” ‘Phereupou Irene, in the e-urse of a touching letter to “dear “Gerrit,” the brother in New York, put this delicate question to him: “Gerrit, de serions > dun’s you think it woald be wicked for me to think of marrying an other of your brothers under the cireum stanres, and so soon?” It did seem a little early after the shooting.

Steam (ears up large wasecs of soil, oc turns it over aud leaves it rough, exposing far more surface to sun, air, wind, rain, dew, than any other cultivating force at the-dixpdsal of the farmer. Whea the steam eugiue is at rest it costs nothing. No work, tuod in the sbape ef coal, and a shi'ling.a day per bérse power will keep it gofng when at work. Stam is cheaper as well as better than horse plowing, bat ft is ia its ability to do so magh work in so firth time that the numerona advaiyages of steam over allother kinds of agriculiural force consist. Within a few. weeks of harvest the enw tire sartace ofan arable farm may be turn- ed ap, and the whole of the land be in process of preprration for seed beds.

Cow. Com, Kaceicu, N. ©, Sept. 9, '76 To the Voters of North Carolina : A special term of the Uireait Qourt of the United States for the Eastera Dis- trict of North Carolina is ordered to be held in this city on the 20:h of Septem- ber for the appointment of Supervisorsof Registration and Elections, and a similar order has or will be promulgated, we pre same, for the Western District. Our elections bave hitherta been beld under the supervision of our State authori. ties, interference on the part of the federal goveroment being unknown. As this wovement is liable to be misappreheuded by many of our people, we deem it not inappropriate to issue this address in or-~ der that you may the more readily com. prebend the object and iateut of thia a eveding, ae ee In 1871, a statuate law was paseed by the Congress of the United States, whieb proviles, among-other things, that on the petition of ten citizens of good standing in ay county in any Congressional Dis- triet, the Judge of the Cireait shall open the Court and proceed to appoint aud commission two citizens, who shall be of different political parties, for each vating preeinet, who shall be known and devign- ated as Supervisors of Election; and these Sup: rvisors shall be able to read aod write the English language, and they shall stiend at all timee aud places of registration, and challenge any doubiful person off-ring to register, aud take steps to prevent improper or wrongfal changes of the reg‘siration list, The Sapervieors aro also authorized to attend electiune challenge illegal or doubtful voters dnd see the votes counted and returns made. In pursuance of the provisions of the above law, under which Judge Bond is aleo acting, the Attorney General has iseued acircular letter of instructions to United States Marshals, iu which be pays: “Tu elections at which members of the Houew of Representatives are ebosen, which by law tielude also elections at whieh the electors tor President and Viee President are appoiuted, the United States secures voters against whatever in general hinders or prevents them from a free exercise of the elective franchise, ex- tending that cae alike to the regietrasion lists, and the act of voting, and the per- sonal freedom and seeurity of the voter, at all times, ag well as against vielenee oa account of any vote that he may intend to give, as against conepiracy because of any that he may already have given. “The peace of the United Statea, there fore, which you are to preserve and whose violation you are to sapprese, protects, last paragraph, and any person whd by f.rce violates those rights breaks peace, and renders it your duty to arrest himw and suppress any riots iveiden} or that threaten the integrity of the registra+ tion or election, to the end that the will of the people in such election may be asecer- tained, and take effect, and that offenders may be brought before the courts for punishment.” The United States marebals are an- tburized to appoint as many deputy mar. thale as may be required to carry out the provisions of the law, and the Attorney- General further eays : “In this connection | adviee that you and each of your deputies, geveral aud ‘epecial® have a right to summon to you assistance in preventing and quelling dis order, every person in the district above fifteen years of age, whatever may bethe occupation, whether civilian or net, aad inclading the military of all denomiea- tionos—wilitia, soldizra, marines—all of whom are alike bound to obey you, The fact that are organized as military bodies, whether of the State or of the United States, uvder the immediate command ot their own officers, does not in anywise affect their legal character—they are still the posse comitatus.” la this connection the General of the Army has issued the following order to such troops as may_be called on to assis in quelling any disturbauce that may arise ; “Officers commauding troops sammon- ed to aid marshals or sheriff+, must judge’ for themselves whether the service is law- ful or eary, and with their ivary wilitary duties. They must limit action absolutely to proper aid permits, every demand should be forward- ed to the President for his orders, and in all cases the highest officer whose in time to meet the: é 7. . can be given ad others, of wnir se the harbors of Beau. JW Em@lngtoy with the great Weel; among others, the rights specified inthe a of our . Mest-of our euch a la the statute booke. Yet they bave nothing to fear from its faith. fal exeention. On the contrary, if i: will bat tend to relieve the minds of our friends tb, of, their. mia of the cleetion, we anticipate the most favorable reeulie. Each freeman should therefore be stimulaiedancw to make the majorityein favor of Reform and Reeon- ciliation so decided as bereafivr to dis. pense with such pertunctionary and ob- voxious interference. The Conservative voters, constituting the law and order party of the S:ate, bare not the slightest cause to apprely a any inconvenience from a faithtu: excea tien of this federal elec:ion law; aod when itis anderstood we are evntident they will untouly yield a ready obedience, but aceept the action of the government authorities as not merely an assurance of peace and protection at every po'ling place bia gaatantee of a fair clee. tion, Those calored people, who bave de sired to vote the Demuecratic ticket, but who are and have uviformly been deter- red by the proseription and intimidation vf the masses of gheie race, who were and are incited Ly vunserupulous leaders, should especially welcome the action that has been taken by the government au- thorities, They can now attend the polls and vote the ticket of their choice, with. out the fear of molestation either “un account of any vote they may intend to give” or “because of any they may al ready have given.” In conclusion we may add, it is not our purpose to criticize the circular letter emanating from what of late has become the political department ef the adminis. tration, noc todiscuss the law ander which the attorney general assamea io act, bowever much it may fontravene the principles of local eelf-government. We acevpt the professions of good faith made by the officers of the government and even of those, whose groundless tears may have made them the unsuspecting dupes oftheir more desiguing partisans; >We trast that our people by their faithful and even cheerfal acquiescence in this entire- ly gratnix as annceeasary procecding will not ouly disappoim the aachinations of our adversaries, but give additional asen- rances of the character which North Car love of liberty aud good government.

Weil, walking down the street on which his hose Is sitanted, met a man named Tum Rickard, a tobacconist from Mocksville. Rickard spoke to him, and they entered into a conversation, during which Rickard called Weil an exceedingly insulting name japon which Weil told Rickard that he would nut take that from any man, and that he must take it back. Rickard refustd to do wo in an angry tune, and the dispute waxing hotter, thrust his hand in the rear or pistol pocket ef his pants, but before he could with- draw his hand, Weil drew his pistol and shot him three times in the body, irflicting wounds that soun caused his death, Weil asserts thathe sbot Rickard in aclf- defence, but upon searching the dead mav no knife being the only thing in his pockets. Weil is now jn jail, heavily chained, and is amarried man. The dead man was single, and leaves a mother and one sister Lo mourn his unlimely death.

It is related that D. P. L. White, the independent Republican candidate for Sheriff met a party, of colored men a few nights ago, in this city, aud proceeded at once to recouneitre with @ view of ob- taining their votes. Ou bearing that they lived in Providenee ‘l'ownship, he stated that he would arrange to have a speaking aud a goad time geverally at that point, and proceeded to inform them, very mod- estly that he was a candidate for Sheriff, and as it took votes to elect a man to of- fice that their votes would not be disa- greeable. “What ticket do you ran on,” they asked. “Onthe Republican ticket, of course,” he exclaimed, with great em- phasis aud peifeet coufilence, “We aint vuling that way,” wae the stariling re sponse, “we are going for Vance aud his whole ticket, and just wait till the big jubilee bere, and you see us come in mounted avd joiu the procession, and then you'll know who's our candidate.”’ Our inforwant states that the odd canii- date staid to hear oo more, but lefi, the worst taken down man he has seen for many days.—Charlotte Observer.

The Holden-Kirk Wat Policy. ———o Rev. Thos. W. Babb, of Gates county, the author of the following card, is one of the most brilliant and promising ministers among the Baptists of eastern North Caro- lina. He is a self-made man, of unblemish- ed reputation and one of the most popular of all the ministers of the Chowan Associa- tion, by far the largest and most influential body of Baptists in the State. A few months ago he was called to the pastorate of the Baptist Church in N: ewbern, but was unable’ te aceept:. The Rev. Mr. Bailey knows nothicg of the publication of this card, -be- ing absent from the city. Mr. Babb gives it to the pubhe in the interest of justice and truth. Here is what Mr. Babb says: Editor of Raleigh News : I was introduced to Gov. Holden on the cars between Raleigh and. Fayettevillc, on my way to the Baptist State Convention, (Noy. 1872,) and had a very pleasant con- versation with him. I was pleased with him and he seemed to be pleased with. me. During the sesson of the Convention he in- vited me to dine with him at Judge Bux- ton’s, which Idid. We walked from the church to Judge Buxton’s residence, took dinner and returned in a carriage to the church. During most of this time the topic of con- . eek fee tip aes ’ e Holden, of which he spoke freely, and I thought frankly. He confessed his regret for having allowed the interests of his party to sway his better judgment, and declared that he was forever done with politics. He said that the Kirk war was forced upon him by unwise and unsafe counsellors; that Kirk was not the man of his choice, but came so recommended that he could do nothing but appoint him to the command of the troops; that the whole thing was against his better judgment, and he regret- ted that he had acted as a partisan and not as a christian. He said the murder of Stephens was for political effect, and his murderers were thought to be of his own party. He spoke of the rope found on the neck of the mur- dered man, and the finding of the coil from which it was cut as likely to elicit evidence unfavorable to parties who were supposed to he friends of Stephens.

The ‘slope is slight towards Malmesbury, and the upland is all grea with,wood and meadow. It is literally a land flowing with milk and honey, abounding in butter and cheese, rich exceedingly in flucks and berds, and green fields.aud wide well-wooded parks, and little villages with great churches. seat of the Longs, and the scene of Long Wellesley’s fortune-hunting exploits. Near itare the two Somerfords, Broad and Little, and close to them another ford, locally called “Cys Malford,” but more deceutly described in the maps as Chris- tiun Malford, neither name exactly repre- senting the older form, Close to this is railway statjon and canal lock of Dauute- sey, Dauntsey, Dautsey, or Dantzy— There are perhaps as mauy ways of spell- ing it ast apelling Shakespeare or Berk- hampsted. ‘'wo miles notrh is the chareh, and almost touching it the manor-heuse.

She was # anvers, the daughter of a cousin of Lord. Danby, Charles Danvers, of Baynton, « place that lies some ten miles or more further down the river, near Lacock. The story of the marriage has been often told. Walton gives it some romantic features, which Mr. Grosart, in his new edition of Herbert's Poems (Bell & Ese takes un- necessary pains to refute. it Jane fell in love with George unseen, and that she married him three days after their first interview, as Walton says, caunot be disproved by reference t6 the fact of “her near rela:ive, Sir John Danvere,”—Mr. Grosart does not say how near, but be was her father’s first cousin—having been “for sixteen years the hasband of Geoi Herbert’s mother and a true second father to him.” ‘They were not marriéd here, but at Edington near Weetbury, on the 5th Mareli; 1629, as Mr. Grosart has as- certained, though the register it self has perished — The Raturdag Review, It is probable, and it is certainly to be hoped, that the meeting in aid of Wash« ington and Lee University which took place at Philadelphia last week will be truitfal of good results.

The college was re-organized in 1865, and as Geneval Robert E. Lee ac- cepted the presidency, it soon regained, After Lee’s death, in 1870, the name of the institution was changed to Wasliing~ ton and Lee University, the people of tf State desiring to link together in the memory of two illustrious D ~—the snecessful ealdier of the Revolution and the unsuecessfal soldier of the ‘rebel- lien.

Bayard, esq, Camden, Del My"Dear Sir: Your very much ess teemed and. valued letter of the 15th of August, which was directed to Richmond waa thence transferred to the White Sul- bur Springs, after some delay, where I had the ure to receive it about the | let Of thi month. I should bave a to it mofe promptly but for the state my bealth a the fact that striking events in the hietory of oar country bave been occorrring with such rapidity that almost every day which trauspired tempt: ed me to wait another day to see what would transpire ov the next—the march in the progress of revolutionizing our Government being too fast almost for calm thought. Un ove day we-have seen a committee of the Seuate, under thecontrol of the dominant party of Grant, Hayes & Co.—miscalled the Republican party ; /uews @ non lucendo—propusing, actually, for party purposes, to obliterate many of the States, and with equal right which means no right asserting, if wot direetly as L think, at least by implica- tion, the authority to obliterate all of them, and thus to make a consolidated empire of the once constitutioual United States, And on avother, the right of the States to couduct their own elections peaceably and without molestation, as by the Qonstitution they are authorized to do, denied ; and the people subjected to the military power of, what was, the Uni ted. States, under the lead and control of depaty-sheriffs under the name of deputy- marshals. Under such circumstances it is peculiarly gratifying w me when yoo, wy old friedd, approve and coneur in my determination to support with all my heart those honest aud Coastitutiou-loviug Dewoerats, ‘Vilden aud UWendricks. A Glance at the Dust. Asonecientious Demoerats, you and I could not do otherwise, univss Demo-~ cratg of a higher order could have been presented to us aud had been. In our Louiswille Conveution the neble band ot Democrats, who thev associated with us, pledged themselves to make no barter of their principles, but to defeud them and the Conatiiution upon which they are founded and the great country which all were intended to serve and preserve, as long as life lasted, and we thereby neces~ siete pledged ourselves to the correlative Proposition, to wit: that we would sup. port honest and conscientious Democrats, they should be presented to ue—for we are democrats because that is the true Conatitution- loving aud liberty-loving party. You very properly say that Dot- ly Yableo has had her day. She is dead—"peace to ber ashes.” No oue will offend tbe livingeye by erecting a monument to her memory, and the Dem oerats who were misled by the glare of her veil into false worsbip, have returned to the paths of duty and sobriety and united.with us in the straight-out nomi- nations at 8. Louis. And with you I hope that the reflux of the popular tide will be as high as that of 1840, and sweep out those who have so much abused the public confidence of the country and threatened, it they have not destroyed, the Constitution. A Look at the Present, Only think of it. A Government reek- ing with plunderers, its highest offices filled with thieves, who uow seek to de= fend themselves and protect their places by converting the Government into a mil- itaty mobocracy, the worst kind uf des- otisut, afid disgracing the army of the Pnited States, which lately slaaghtered so many of their brethren and bathed the land fa blood, to preserve, as they thought, that Coxstitution and Union which, they now so recklessly sacrifice to serve the worst ends of a bad party. Ouly think of it, these blood stained he- roes ofa four-years’ war, under their gallant leaders, McClellan, Hancock, Mc- Dowell aud Bartlett, firing upon tho peo- pleat: the’ polls under the orders of a dep~ uty sheriff! ! and this done in the name of free suffrage and che guarantee of that right, the first and dearest right of a free- man, Wh the great fundamental princi- ple'atid’ characteristic of a republicau gov ernment. Lhe Common Law-Powers of a Sheriff. A marshal of the United States cor- respouids With a sheriff of a State aud the deputies of one with the depaties of the other, By the common law of Great Lritain, which is the law of moet of the States, xcept where aliered by statutory provision, Blackstone tells us that : ‘Pie sheriff is a judge, the keeper of the King’s peace and the King’s Bjiiiff, with power to determine all causes of torty shillings Value. As keeper of the King’s peate he was the first man iu bis country and for to any nobleman therein. — Pe office he was bound to defend his ntry Against the King’s enemies whentbey caure into the land, and for this purpose as we)l as for keeping the peated pursuing felous, he may comw- maid allthe people of bis county to at- tend hito, which is called posse comitatus or powef of the county; and thie sammona every person above fifteen years old and under the degree of a peer is bound to at- tend Wpon Warning and under paiu of fine and” onment. By'thelaws of the United States an officer called # marshal is substituted for the sletiff, an@ by statue he is directed to exeetté thitgdghout the distriet—that is, his district—all lawtul precepts directed to Lin issued under authority of the United States, und he shall have power to commend all necessary assistance in the @xecation of his duty and to appoint, as thereimiay be occasivn, one or more depaties, Wherein @ Marshal's Power Differs. ‘Tha twill hegeen that the office of maraa “of the United States differs from the office Of sheriff very widely, although Mr. Wiantig placed them upon the same fuothig and clothed the marshal with the coud power of sherif, which has not been granted to bim, and withou: ea und limitations which b For ihe privi "But Mr. Cushing interpola the me eY ! to the offee. of the Supreme Court and heads of departments members of Congress whev in seas- ion. How supremely ridiculous sach « government would be, and how easy for a few rowdy negroes and a ony mar- throw it into a state of chaos.-- Bet Mi -OG heal “Spee” the common law the words, “including the military of all dewominations,” utterly forgetting that an act of Congress limite bia power to command neceseary assis- tance in the execation of his duty. A Forcible Contrast. It would be worth a trip to England to behold a deputy sheriff of the county of Middlesex commanding the Queen's Guards or the famous Forty-secoud, with the judges of the Queen's Bench and the mewbers of the House of Commons, with the Speaker at their head, to keep the ace in the Sheriffs Court or at an opera Laie’ ard it would be worth a trip “around the world in eighty days” ai most, to see the mashal of the District of Columbia marching the President, the jadges of the Supreme Coart in their sur- plices, and the heads of departments led by General Sherman to keep the peace between rowdy negroes and white wen; but the outrage upon the Coustitution and the rights of the people is even more glar ing than this. Under eveo Cashing’s law (and a worse law and a worse law- giver I cannot conceive), in the largess view of the sheriffs power the atuost that the marshal can do is to call apon the people of the couutry who are there when the breach of the peace ocenrs and the marehvl is overpowered, but it uever did before occur to any man that the mar shal or sheriff could anticipate a row and breach of the peace, and in that anticipa~ tion march the arwy iu detachments into the States in order to coutrol the elee- tions. Never before was there a Presi- dent or Attorney-General base enough thus to violate the law and the Costita- tion, and insult the people. A New Name for the Attorney General. M. ‘Taft ought to be re-christened and ealled Mr. Daft; for no man in his senses could be such a pimp to power and party. If the people dou’t rise in their might at the polls and reseue the Government from the hande of the men who now in derision eall themselves Republicans, our liberty is lost or will be brought down to the Bulgarian standard. But will the brave and gallant officers of the army obey these orders of a deputy marshal when every act of obedience will be a crime, x trespass or a murder, according to the deed dote, for which be will be held per- sonally responsible by law? I do not believe they will, at least [> hope they will not, for there ia but one Phil Sheri dan in the army. With you, | rejoice to see that Charles Francis Adame has been nominated by the Democrats of Massa. ehusetts as their candidate for Governor ; for however | may have differed from bim about other matters, all admit tbat he is an honest, able, upright mau, of great expericuce ; and every patriot must rejoice to see auch a man rallymg to the rescue of bis country.

The adwinistration of President Grant has become, in plain Saxon, a stink in the vostrils of the honest meu. Need I recur tu ail or any of the acta which will asso- ciate bis name with the Neros aud Calli- gulas of a once powerful nation. Let me siugle vut one thing fresh in the memory of all. Mr. Bristow, Gen. Wilson, Com- missioner Pratt, of the ‘Treasury Depart- wmeut, entered into a laudible cowbination to bring to punishment the revenue offi cials who bad entered into au eulawfal conspiracy with the distillers of St. Louis to defrand the government to the extent of millions, ‘They puta detective Yaryau on the track and succeeded in baving these revenue officials brought to trial. ‘They were prosecuted by Mr. Dyer, Dis- trict Attorney, (Republican,) tried before the eminent Judge Dillon, (Republican, ) were defeuded by perhaps the strongest array of legal talent ever mustered into service since the trial of Quecu Caroline, and were convicted. The country breathed freer aud the thanks of the nation were given for their partial deliverance. Yet, suddenly there after, without assigning a reason, Bristow | resigns, and following in rapid succession | the head of Wilson, (grown grey in the ‘Treasury eervice,) Piatt, (a man of bigh character,) Dyer aud Yaryan tall from the | political guillotine, Has this picture a parallel iv history ? Aud what significance can be attached lo it, except that thereby the President intended to give warning to their eucees- sora that it was no lounger crime for gov- rrumenut pets to steal, but the bighest po- litical crime to cause thea to be bronght to justice | Now, does Mr. Hayes approve such couduct ? We know uot. Again, the President listening to the counse) of such men as Chamberlain, is- sues a proclamation as to a State of this Union which is false, and deluges that State with Federal troops. We all kuow that whether in this iustance the whites or blacks were to blame fur sporadie riots, there was no resistance to law, vo defi- auce of lawful authority by the white race. Yet, on the eve of an election which may decide our destiny as a nation for weal or woe, when thousands of célore men werévallying w the bright) statdu of honor and refores borue aleft by Hamp ton, the vile pretense of insurrection 1e- futed by every Judge vearly in the State —ia set up by an iufamous ecarpet-bag Governor, is seized at by bis willing ally, the President, avd as noble aw race of white wen as the suu ever shone 09 ate arredted, their arms taken away, while the negroes are armed by the State’s government to shoot defenceless whites. Ob! is it uot “ihe bloodiest picture in the book of time ?”’ When and where do we ever read of, in the- histories of peoples civiliead or savage, seh av insiance of recreaucy to blood, linéage aud caste 7 Is not that heart, especially that soath ern lieart, cold and caflous iudeed, which is vot stirred to its very depths when be cofteniplaies this premediwuted and cold- blooded attempt to enslave the white race, aud that by a degraded and recently ser- vile-class of the community 7 Does Mr. Hayes approve of all this? We known uot, Again, who are Mr Hayes’ main sup- rtera in the campaign | ‘’hé@ ‘Chandlers, the.

And yet, if elected, Hayes is bound to feel that to these and such as these be would owe that honor. ‘Then, we have immediately before our eyes two gross and inexcusable infractions of constitutional Iberby, namitly : 1. ‘The right of whe citizens to bear aims. ; ~* 2.

We are informed that Judge Schenck has directed the Clerk of the Superior Court of Polk coanty to disobey a writ of certiorari, isaning from the Oireuit Gourt of the Uinted States at Asheville, and directed to the Clerk of the Superior Coart of Polk county, directing biw to certify to the Circuit Court for trial, the record in anindietment in Polk couuty against one Lynch Young for assault and battery. Young, who isa U.S. Marebal, made a violent aseank on one Foster, and after being indicted in Polk, filed @ peti- tioo in the Cireuit Court for removal of his case to that Court, under the 6th sec- tiov of the Internal Revenue Act of 1866 Judge Schenck refuses to allow the case w be removed, relying on the cases of the Unired States ve. Hudeou I’, Craneh, Rep. page 32, and the recent cases of U S. vs. Reese and U. 8. vs. Craikehauk, decided at the October tern of the U. 8. Supreme Court. The Judge holds that the Cireuit Court bas vo jurisdiction ot any crime “uuless made a crime by U S. statate, and the punishment. «fixed wo it.’ It is likely that the defendant will carry the case up to the Supreme Coart. It is ander this section of the Revenue laws that U.S. Marshals have been takiug every case, where they were indicted, tu the Federal Courts, We will now see whether they can violate the peace of a State and not be amenable tu its Court for punishweut — Observer.

ANNOUNCEMENT. _Ou the 16th day of November, and in the city of Raleigh, the uudersigued will Commence the publication ot THE OBSERVER, a Daily and Weekly Democratic newspaper. _ Of loag experience in their profession as ed- iturs, renpectively of the Fayetieville Observer and the Wilmington Journal, they do not affect v doubi the soundness of the general judgment which assigns them ability to furnish a news- paper suited tu the needs and adapted to the tastes of the people of North Carolina. Differ- ing iu politics in the olden time, there was nev- er a difference between the Observer and the Journal in zeal for the interest of North Caro- lina. To promote the one, and to uphold and add to the other, will be the object of The Observer now. Of very decided opinions on qnestions of pub- lic interest, and apt to give those opinions plain expression, they deem it the first duty of a newspaper to furnish its readers with the in- formation necessary to the formation of their opinionx—to publish all “the news;” and their purpose ix to make THE OBSERVER now, as of old, « truthful, xceurate, condensed history of the times in which we live. It was thus that “the old Observer” wou its hold upon the peo- ple of North Carolina, enjoying the affection of its party friends, receiving the respect and con- fidence of its bitterest political foex, and com- manding in its comparatively isolated location a circulation larger than has ever been attained by an other North Carulina newspaper, and it ia thus, by like dignity, and fairness that the editors of THz OBservVER, transfer to the State Capital, hope it will deserve, and svon equal, and then surpass, its furmer circulation and prosperity. _ It will be their high aim to deserve the pub- lic coufidence by earnest eGorta to promote the publie welfare, first and foremost of North Car- vliua, next of all the Southern States and, finally, and through these of the whole Union, They think that this can only be effected by the prevalence of Democratic principles, and and the dismissal of the Radical party frum the places and power which ~ have so greatly abused and under whose baleful rule the South has been outraged and the whole country has been impoverished and disgraced. .

C. A NEW PROCESS OF UTILIZING COTTON. By THE COMMISSIONER. Any process which will facilitate and cheaper the manufacture of cotton pos- sesaes an interest which must command the attention of the people of this coun~ try, where alone this fiber is most suc- cessfully produced. The iavention of the cotton-gin was a prodigious step for- ward to promote the increased produc~ tion and profitable employment of the cotton planter; and now the ingenious mechanic proposes ancther =“ forward iv aid of this all-important industry, by “» new process for converting seed cotton directly into yarns ;” whereby the use ol the “gin” will be entirely superseded, and each step of converting the cotton, as it comes from tbe field, greatly cbeapehed. We take this mode of calling pablic at teation to the subject, and to invite a strict serutiny iuto the merits of the pro- aed improvement. The following views upon this sub- ject are_presented in a tewer from F. E. Whitfield, seo., of Corinth, Mississippi; By the new process of couverting seed- cotton direetly inte yarus only four ma chines gre used, viz: the card, drawing- dry, seasoued, aud bristle in this angled condition, vor has it beew ivjared by the willower, lapper, double-lapper, breaker, and cards, where the dumage done by the gin, press, and compiese is soug..t to be remedied.

The strongest argument which can be urged againat the advisability of administering such corrosive and nerve-destroying poisons aa ure senic and quinine for intermittent and re mittent fevers, is the vastly superior success in the prevention and cure of such diseases of a medicine which is the very antipode of the above named drags, both in respect of its | composition and the results wronght by it. | Such a redicine is MHoxtetter’s Stomach Bit- jters, a purely vegetable preparation, which |notonly eradicates with wonderful promoti- tude every trace of fever and ague, and kind- red types of malarious diseases, from the sys j tem, but ix a certain preventive of ail mada- | diea begotten of miaxma-tainted air.and water.

This is after the severest. competition by the best makers, before one of the most competent jaties ever assembled. They have also received the MEDAL, but, as is well known, medals of equal merit have been awarded all articles deemed. worthy of recognition ; so that it will be easy for many makers to advertise that they have received “first medals.” The differences in competing urticles, and their comparative excellence, are recognized in the Reports of the Judges, from which the following is an extract: “THE MASON & HAMLIN ORGAN CO.’s exhibit of Reed Organs and Har- moniums shows Instruments of the FIRST RANK IN THE ys RE. ere OF INSTRUMENTS OF HE CLASS; viz.: Smoothness and equal distribution of tone, scope of expression, resonance and singing qual- ity, freedom and quickness in action of keys and. bellows, with thorough- ness of workmanship, combined | with simplicity of action.” (Sign-d' by all the Judges) The Mason and Ham- lin Organs are thus declared to rank first, not in one or two respects only, but in the SEV- EKAL REQUISITES of such instru:nents, and they are the. ONLY ones assigned this rank.

(Laugh oo AN IDOL OF CHRISTIAN LANDS. Tobacco, to the amount of $250,000,- 000, is used in this country annually. This is about seven dollars to each per- aon, or thirty for each man. The half-dozen cigars which most emoke's use a day contain six or seven grains nicotine —-nough, if concentrated and absorbed, to kill three men; and a pound of tobacco, according to its quality, coutains from one-quarter to one and s uarter Ounces. Is it atrange, then, that smokers and chewers have a thousand ailments? that German physicians attribute one-half of the deaths among the young men of that couatry to tobacco? that the French Polytechnic Lustitute bad to probibit ite use on account of isa effects eu the mind ? that men giow dispeptic, hy pochrouduiac, insane, deliriogs, from its use?

The Turks, as a race, bave no rélation. ship to the Aryan or Indo-European fami- ly. “They made their first appearance in Northern: and Gentral Asia -amoug the flun and Tartar bordes, who, for several centuries before and after oar era; wers the terror of the Chinese.” Pliny mene tiona them as the J'urca, and at ihe be~ ginning of the Christian era, thegehad traversed westward to the Don, aud. had penetrated into Asia Minor. [Ln the sixth century, au empire, baviug iia seat in what is now Kast Turkistan, rese into power, aud wae formidable in the beart of Asia; and in 569 it formed an alliance with Justin IT, the Roman Emperor of Constantinople, for the overthrow of the Sassanidw, a dynasty of Persian kings, by whem the religion of Zoroaster was maintained. ‘This ‘Turkish Empire was overthrown in 744 by the Ulgura, one of eight ‘Turkish tribee, and the first to use a written language. They were original- ly Buddhists, but in the 4:b centary they became Zoroastrians, and in the 9th or 10:h century they embraced Islam. When Genghis Khan destroyed the Tarkish Empire in Central Asia, his chief officers and bis successors were taken trow the tribe of Ulgurs, on account of their superior intelligence. These ‘Turks rapidly extended their conquests toward Western Asia, aud as early as the 6th and 7h ceaturies had possessed what is now kuown as ‘Turkey in Asia. ‘The Seljuchs, another Turkieh dynasty, inthe latter part of the Lith century swept over Asia, from the froatiere of China to the vicinity of Constantinople, but were fin- ally subdued by the Mongols in the 13cb eentury, ‘These invaders of Tarkiston became identified with the peo- ple they had conquered, and, the ‘Vuarkish element predominatiog in the age follow, ing the death of ‘Tamerlane, they invad- ed and aubdued Armeuia and the coun trica bordering on the ‘Tigris and the Euphrates. , Abont the beginning of the L4th ecen- tury, the Ottoman Ewpire was founded by O.hbman, a Turkish chief, and in’ the suceveding century spread over a vast territory in Asia and Europe. In the 4h centary, the Roman gov- ernment was removed to Constantinople : the Christiaa religion was professed in all the proviuces of the East that submitted to that goverument, and the faith of th» Charch of Rome waa the faith of the civ- ilized world. In the Llth century came the final separation of the Evstern and W eastern Churches, and the division re- mains to this day. ‘he croas was the emblem of the faith, and the Rowan eagles were not more truly the sigu of Rome's temporal soverelsuly than the Year after year, and ceutury sucereding eentary, these Mabometan, Oveman Turks, waged relentless, bloody and ter- rible war against the peoples of seath- eastern Europe, ‘They drew their inspira tion from the Koran, where itis written : “Whosoever fights for the religion of Gof, whether he be slain or be victorious, we will surely give him a great reward.” “They who believe, fight for the religion of Gud.” J In the year 1453, Constantinople was takeu by 300,000 Turks, uuder Moham: med IL. then Coustantine Pale y'ogus, the last Emperor of the Romans, perished iu the vain bat heroic defence of the city which became his tomb. 5 From this time, the middle of the 15th century, the T'arks pushed their conquests aloug the shores of the sea, antil Syria, Palestine, Egypt, and other portions of the African coast were subdued. Servia, a province now in open rebel- lion, aud on which the Easteru question mainly turns, has a population of 1.338,- 000, all of Slavic origin, except 140,000 Wallachians, 25,000 Gypsies, and 15,000 Mongol Turks, Bulgarians. Jews, Germans and!

Every generous heart in Europe is burning with: indignation at the foul deeds with which the» oppressor bas striven to pat down the revolt of victims whose patience wits at‘ lust exhausted. “Here is a yreat struggle of right and wrong, in which the‘fédts of histury join with every generous impulse of our nature to lead every man who can see and feel to the side of right. * * *: * * “Even under the very best Muhometan gov- ernment, it is im ible that men ef other re- ligions than the Mahometaw #huuld have rea! political equality with Mahometans, It is im- possible, because it is contrary to the first prin- ciples of the Mahometan religion. The anre- formed, intolerant Turk, has the better of the argument with (he Tark whe profesesyreform and tolaration, because the unreformed Turk is consistent according to bis own prin- ciples, while the reforming lurk ia not. Even under the best Mahometan government, the non-Mahometan is doomed to political inferior- ity, and under a bad Mahometan goverermment, pulitieal inéeriority is sure to grow into actual persooal oppression. Whathas grown to be under that system of! organized brigandage which in the coartesy of- ufficial langnage is eall Ottoman governasent, we see with our own eyes. All experience, past and present, proves that im such a case reform ia hopeless, The evil thing cannet be changed ; it must be got ridof. * * * * * Meanwhile the eondition of the Oliristians under the Turkish yoke bas been getting worse and worse. That ia to ray, a Christian government, however bad, is capa- ble of refuerm. ‘The government of the Turk is incapable of reform; because in teuth it is no goveramentat all, bat simply erganized brig- adage. Bhis last trath ix one that should be clearly wnderstood, The rule of the Turk! ia not overnment: it is not even misgovernment. It ix the mere domination of a gang of robbers, Ifa burglar breaks into «a house, we dv not call it mingovernment; and the so-called ‘gov- ernment’ of the Turk is simply an act of burg: lary prolonged for centuries. The dominion of other conqueror became lawfnl as soon as their dominiun became ‘government,’ as soon as the conqnefor and the conquered became one nation with a cummon interest. As svon ax the sufervign gave protection, the subject owed allegiance. . But in the case of the ‘Lark, the conqueror and conquered remain us distinct as ever ; the su-ealled ‘sovereign’ gives no protec- tion; therefore the so-called ‘aabjeet’ owes no allegiance. To the peepleof Ronsania, Bulgaria, Bosuia, and other enslaved lands», the Turk is not arules; he is net a countryman; he is as much an alién enemy as when he first crossed the Bosporus, «* * * * # “The so-called Ottoman gavernment is sim- ply arnule of a gangof robbers; and it ia the rule of a gang df robbers: without a captain.

In 1822, in Scio, a lovely:island in the Grecian Arehipelago, the Christian popu- lation rebelled, madly indeed, tor their prospect of success was vain; in. two months 23,000 buman beings, without dis- tinction of age or sex, were put to the sword ; 47,000 were sold into slavery, and 6,000 fled into exile to save themselves from this awful fate. ‘The Christian pop- ulation was reduced in two months from 104,000 to 2,000 ‘The right of the Christians to throw off the ‘Parkish yoke if they can is therefore unquestionable. We have heard one and Only one reasou given for the continuance of the preseut Mabometan despotism: it is thia: “ Protestant missionaries have liberty to preach the gore! in Turkey under the, Ma- hometan fale, and it is feared they would not enjoy that liberty if the Tarkish despotism were vverthrown. The Kassian government being insympathy with the Christian pulation, which is ehiefly of the Greek Church, it is fear- ed that the work of our missions will be arrest- ed by Russian authority.” ‘To thie, the auewers are simple and obvious : 1, lv is only an imaginary fear, for which at present there is no foundation iu fact. ‘The triumph of the rebellion, with the aid of Rassia does not make it cer. tain that the Provinces are simply to change masters. They are fighting for independence, in spite of Lord Derby. If the several Powers of Europe cut up ‘Tarkey and divide it amoung themeelves, such guara,.tces will be given and receiv- ed as the preseut laws of nations and the sentiment of Clristian civilization secure.

A correspondent of the Herald writing from Obarleston ov the day of the great procession in honor of Hampton, says: “Along the line the colored Demo- crats, as well us the white men, women and children were subjected to the most abusive and vilest iusults from negro roughe and women, particularly the wo- meu. ‘They lined the streets, and made indecent exposures of their persons and carsed the white and black Democrats in the most foul and indecent language. It was all submitted to under instructions from Gen. Hampton. ‘I'be entire police force was out, but could not put astop to this assault.. In some cases the negro wowen fairly performed an Indian war dance with clabs and knives, and in one or two instances attempted to pull colored men from the rankg aud mod them. No disturbance occurred, owing to the fors bearance of the whites, several of whom were actually koocked down in. the strecta.”’ . ee —— What Surprised both Parties.—The majority by: which the amendments went through, bas sarprieed the Democrats and and knoeked the breath frem all the Radi- cal poliiicians in the State. Before the election, the Republicans openly boasted that the amendments would be defeated by thirty thousand votes, and the strength of their unpopularity would drag Gov. Vance down with them. Ia fact, Judge Settle declared, from the hastings, time and again, that they woald go dewn by a most overwhelwing majority, when the couut shows they did not run much be- hind the vote of Gov. Vance in the State. ‘That both sides were completely deceived, ax to their strength, no one can doubt, and it is a subject of canstaut remark in all political circles,—Oharlotte Observer.

Itis a well known fact,’ that travelliug circuses are among the most efficient agencies koown, in circe- lating ¢ouuterfeit money by giving it ‘in change for good money, and it is more than ikely that this is the plan by which thesé raseals intend to dispose of this. People, arid especially those who live’ in the country, cannot be too particular, in scrutinizing all bills) which come into their possession. Verily circuses are nui- sances.—Obar. Observer. ———— THE AMENDMENTS. The very large majority by which the awenduicnts to the Constitution were rat- ified has occasioned eurprise, in that it turns gut the people attached wore im- portance to them than did the politicians. Bat this ought not to have been the case. It needed but little penetration to discov- er that the people of North Carolina _re- garded the Canby Constitation with no kindly feelings. Its imposition on them they regarded as a crime long to be re-~ membered and, possibly, never to be for-~ given, and its contiuaauce in mastery over them they bave considered as a badge of slavery.. Nor was this all, for its provisions were utterly aneuited eiiber to their wants or to their wishes. I, is no matter for just surprise, therefore, that at the first and every other opportanity that has presented, where distinet defined changes have beeu proposed, the people have agreed to them, by bverwhelming wajorities, id so in 1874 and they did eo agaia ia the last election.— There — age pens as to the dis~ kien e le to change the Con- Bingiion when they could do a with the perfect assarauce that they kuew what they were doing. Nor was there” any thing in the amendwents proposed calcu- lated to exéite suepicion or to inepire fear ‘in the minds. of the people as to the ‘contemplated therein. All that ve needed to insure a heavy vite in an tion of the amendments was that ex: ee Reese) ced 7 = ‘by alt Ro x rei eee b y have one and’ tion of the State in favor of the ratifi. * © . bate ae ote they ; aes 9 2 " i oe bas od by his own party'ae a wsarper, ’ ne and alltaken upa strong ee position since’the election, and. ave occupied their time inl éending’ spe- cial dispatches to their party organs and commitices, assuring them that their re- spective States would be found “on the final count” to be all right for the Repnb- licans, forgetting that, as the chief magis~ trates of their States, they had sworn to administer the laws impartially, and that they will be ealled:apon in their official capacity to take action in relation to the| election returns. The tone of their diss patches, too, haa been injudicious, and {has done much to excite the apprehen- sion of intended foul play. Only yester- day, Governors Kellogg and Ohamberlain telegraphed to the Herald, in response to inquiries from that journal, that nothing is known by them as to the actual results in Louisiana and South Carolina. “I would gladly give you the statement you re- the official returns have not been received from more than eight counties.” So many ofthe parishes of this State are inaccessible,” says Governor Kellogg, “aud the authentic statements of results received up to the pre ent time are so few, and the unofficial accounts vary so widely, that it is impossible to give to-night any accurate statement, or even approximately accurate, as requested by you.” Yet these same gentlemen had been for three or four days previously telegraphing to their party friends that their States had certainly gone Republican, and that the “finel count” might be relied on to make matters “all right.” Goveruor Stearns has been similarly employed. “We hold the fort,” said one of these Executives two or three days ago, “and you need not be concerned about the result.” “If there is a Democratic majority itia by fraud in certain couuties,” said another who now admits that he yet knows nothing about the result, “and this willbe made all right on the final count.” ; Now let us reverse the picture, and see how it weald look to our Republican friends if Democratic Governors were acting the same part now being played by their Southern Republican Exccutives California is a close State, so close that it is claimed by the friends gf Mr. Tilden that the result is not yet positively known. Governor Irving is a Democrat. Sup- pose he had telegraphed to Mr. Abram S. Hewitt, “We hold the fort. Do not be- lieve any Republican reports about Cali- fornia. ‘I'he State will be all right for Tilden on the final count;’? and to the World, “Dou’t be concerned about Calix fornia. ‘he Republican claim of a majority, if true, is secured by fraud io four or five counties, and will be remedii-d when the final count is made ;” would not the country ring with outcrics against the “cebela,” and would it not be declared in emphatic terms that the intention of the Democrats was to inaugurate a usorper in the place of the legally chosen President ? To carry the picture a step further—if a Democratic President had happened to be in power in Washington and had sent troops to California ta back. Governor Irving’s efforts at an “honest count,” would the Republicans bave looked on: complacently and lave justified ‘the act, | however proper it might have been ? We have no great fear that the Admin- istration will be made to steal three or even two States from Mr. Tilden, provi- ding they have given Democratic major= ities. Such a fraad-might be attempted in a single State, but ifin two or three States the pretense of throwing out Dem- ocratic counties on trumped charges of fraud in the vote should be resorted to for the purpose of securing Republican major- itiee, the raseality would be as self-evi- dent ae if the figures for the respective candidates had been boldly reversed. It is inconceivable that a group of unscrupu- lous politicim s could dare to brave the indignation that, in such an event, would sweep over the natjon.

Tt is difficalt to see the wisdom of onr present #ysiem of electing the President and Vice President by State Elgetors. Tt strikes the common mind as a very useless piece of political machinery —uaeless and dangerous ton, in so far aa it sometimes puts intg office a man the majority of the people areopposed to. Abraham Linco!n wag made President by it in 1560, al- though be had 946,285 less than the majority:of all the vetes cast. Mr. Buch- anan went in with 377,609 less than a majority. And if Hayes should go in it will be on a vote fof not abont 300,000 less than that given for Mr. Tilden. In the latter care the wrong ie more manifest for the reasoa.that there was 20 third ticketiof any impertance to divide the whole vote cast. It will be an anomaly in in elections that the man seceiving the emaller number of votes in the whole number cant shall be deelared elected. Bateneh will be the effect of our electoral system should Hayes get South Carolina, Flotida and Louisiana, and thus secure a majority of one yote in the eiectoral col- lege... .A.system working such results as these should be abolished, for it certainly does not sustain the popular will. a PRE CONCEIVED. je’ prevent embarrassing suspense in relat on ta.the Presidential question, was strangely anticipated by some of the radi- cal ledders ‘before the election day. ‘I"hey expedtéd "Hayes wonld be heaten, and evidently pre-concelved the idea of em- barrassiug the question in some way. The movement of troops from South Caro-~ lina to Florida, two days before the elee~ tion, and the sending of troops to Lonis- jana abont the same time, would seem to indicate that it was pre~determiued that in those three States the grand experiment of defrauding the couutry out of its bon. estly eliosen President should be made. Even’ hére, in this town, a radical leader so far betrayed the secret councils of the party aato offer to bet that if ‘Til- den-was dulgfelected he would never be juadgirated a3° President. Similar ex- presifons have escaped the lips of other |. leading’ meibers of the radical party.

Unparalleled and Revolutionary Conduct of the Superserviceachle Canvass- ing Board. Republicans Counted in, in Defiance of Law, and of a Ma- jority of Freeman's Votes. As will be seen by the dispatches below, the returning board in South Carolina, on yesterday evening adopted the revolution- ary und unparalled course of disregarding the votes cast by the people of that State, and have issued certificates of election to the whole republican ticket, State and Na- tiongl, in utter contempt to the mandates of the Conrt, and in de of law. The action of the hoard is clearly revolutionary, and indicates a weakness, and utter disre- gard of all law and precedents. In order to make their victory complete, they throw out the entire vote of the coun- ties of Edgefield and Laurens, which gave the democratic ticket something over four thousand majority, thus proving that, so far as the action of the onal is concerned, the recent election, was worse than a farce. The prominent republican alluded to is probably Judge Bond, of the Cireuit Court of the United States, and if so it is needless to say that his oppression of the Southern ple, is co-extensive with his territorial Jurisdiction. While there was much excitement in Columbia last night, in consequence of this action of the board, everything was quiet and peacabie, and the democrats are contl- dent of success through the tribunals of jus- tice, Co_umara, Nov. 22,—The Board of State canvassers yen wilaine made - to the st t persons who ved the hi number of votes for the office for which they were candidates. the result was a ioheerie and that their 'y own t all the errors of the same character yuld have elected the Democrats. excitement, but the citizens are determined to rely upon the courts and exhaust all le- | means of redress...

He epeaks of the “counting of the electoral votes by the Vice-President in the presence of bor touses,” The Vice-President has no power to count the vote. His power is expressly given to ‘open all the certificates,” bur the count of the voics is uot eutrusted to hira. Time and again in the history of our legislation the two hoases have assamed the power and duty of coun'ing the votes by their respective tellers, cousis:iug of ove Senator and two R-preseatatives. ‘The twenty-second joint rule adopted and retained in force and acted under by Mr. Sherman aud his party for three Presiden tial elecsioue, recognized this and gave the whole control of the count of the elec toral votes and their reception to the twe houses, and invested each boas with the separate power of rejecting any vo'e.

On the 16th day of November, and in the city of Raleigh, the undersigned will commence the publication of THE OBSERVER, a Daily and Weekly Democratic newspaper, Of loag experience in their profession as ed- itors, rerpectively of the Fayetteville Ovserver and the Wilmington Journal, they do not affect o doubt the soundness of the general judgment which assigns them ability to furnish a news- paper suited to the needs and adapted to the tastes of the people of North Carolina. Differ- ing in politics in the olden time, there waa nev- ern difference between the Obnerver and the Journal in zeal fur the interest of North Uaro- lina, To promote the one, and to uphold and add to the other, will be the object of Tite Observer now. Of very decided opinions on questions of pub- lie interest, and apt to give those opinions plain expression, they deen it the firat duty .of formation necessary tothe formation of their opinion«—to publish all “the news;" and their ptirpose is to make Tue OBSERVER now, uv of old, a truthful, accurate, condensed hiatory + of the times in which we live. It was thua that “the old Observer” won its hold upon the peo- ple of North Carolina, enjoying the affection of its party friends, receiving the respect and con- fidence of its bitterest political foes, and econ manding in its comparatively isolated Jocation: acirculation larger than has ever been attained hy an other North Carolina newspaper, and it is thim, by like dignity, and fairness that the editors of Tire Ops#RVER, transfer to the State Capitul, hope it will deserve, and soon l, and then surpass, its former circulation -and prosperity. , It will be their high aim to deserve the pnb- lic confidence by earnest efiorts to promote the publie welfare, first and foremost of North Car- olina, next of all the Southern States and, finally, and through these of the whole Uniun, They think that this can only be effected by the prevalence of Democratic principles, and and the dixmisal of the Radical party from the Places and power which they -have so greatly abused and under whose baleful rule the South bas been outraged and the whole country has been impoverixhed and dixgraced.

From the time W ash- ington till now, the eleetions to the House of Representatives have afforded the beet teat of the atate of public opinion in the country. ‘hose oceurring in the mid- dle of Presidential tesms have foreshad- owed the overthrow of Administrations, and those in the Presidential years have berne the successful candidates along wih them. If Mr. Elayes shall enter the White House in March, be will be the firgt President who ever took office in the face of a hostile outgoing and incoming House. Wib a bare majority of one in the Electoral College, with a universal public conviction that his saccess was due to frand, with a majerivy of more than 300,000 against him at the ballet boxes, with a retiring House of Repre- sentatives denouncing him as a usurper aud confronted by a House whieh holds in ite hands the key of the Treasury and the power of impeachment, and regarding him a» having stolen hie high office frow another to whom it’ rightfully belongs, we favey that his place will be as nacom-. fortable to Limec!f as his administration will be disastrous to the peace aud pros- perity of the vation. been of Sees ae _ ANOTHER WAY ‘TO HAYES. It may uot have occurred to Zach Chandler and Jay Gould that they can make Hayes Presideut by a method that is much siupler than and quite as honest ELECT as the plan which turns upon the foreed declarations of Returuing Buards at the South. * ‘he Tribune has already suggested that when Congrees meets month, the upper branch would do well to choose Mr. Blaine for President of the Senate, in plaee of Mr. Ferry, whom Jay Gould does not regurd as an “able and vigilant Republican.” If this were done, it wouid become the dcty of the able and vigilam Blaine to open and read the electoral votes of the ceveral States. The rest of the programme is simple evough. It would atily be necessary for Blaine to declare the thirty-five votes of New York for Hayes and Wheeler, and wheu the correctness of his reading was diepated to button up the ballots in his breast pocket and boldly denoance bis questioners as couspiiators, Andersonville warderere, and rebels who ought to be banged. This method, which may be termed the Mulligan method, posecsses obvious advantages over the Returving Uvuard plan.—N. Y. Sun The Military at Washington.

The strongest argument which can be ‘urged against the advisability of administering such | corrosive and nerve-destroying poisons aa ar- senic and quinine for intermittent and _re- mittent fevers, is the vastly superior success in the prevention and cure of such diseases of a medicine which is the very antipode of the above named drugs, both in respect of its composition and the results wrought by it. Such a riedicine is Hostetter’s Stomach Bit- ters,a ptirely vegetable preparation, which not only eradicates with wonderfal promopti- tude every trace of fever and ague, and kind- red types of malarious diseases, from the sys- tem, butis a certain preventive of all niala- dies begotten of miasma-tainted air and water. These results mineral anti-febrile remedies do not effeet with certainly, and their continned use entails consequences highly pernicious to the system. ‘The Bitters, on the contrary, not only afford speedy relief, but establish health on a permanent basis. —_ --— Attend to Your Head and Hair —Don't Delay Using This.

ERAL REQUISITES of instruments of the class” by the Judges at the CENTENNIAL EXHIBITION at Philadelphia, 1876, and are the ONLY INSTUMENTS OF THIS GEN- ERAL CLASS AWARDED THIS RANK. This is after the severest” competition by the best makers, before one of the most competent juries ever assembled. ‘ They have also received the MEDAL, but, as is weil known, medals of equal merit have been awarded all articles deemed worthy of recognition; so that it will be easy for many makers to advertise that they have received “first medals.” The differences in competing articles, and their comparative excellence, are recognized in the Reports of the Jadges, from which the following is an extract: : “THE MASON & HAMLIN ore CO.’s exhibit of Reed Organs and - moniums shows Instruments of the FIRST RANK IN THE SEVERAL RE- oon ae OF INSTRUMENTS OF HE CLASS; viz.: ess and equal distribution of tone, scope of expression, resonance and singing qual- ity, freedom and quickness in action of Keys and bellows, with thorough- ness of workmanship, combined with simplicity of action.” (Sign7d by all the Judges.) The Mason and Ham- lin Organs are thus declared to rank - first, not in one.or two respects only, but .in the SEV- | EXAL REQUISITES of such instruments, and they are the ONLY ones _ assigned. this rank.

The Auditor's reports show the receipts antt disbursements at the Public Treasury for the two fiscal yeats ending September 30 $876, and I respectfully. inyite gour at- tentign to tlie same. The Auditor's office ia oneof the most important offices in the State, and I take pleasure in Dearing testimony to the manner in which the du- ties of that office have been discharged. MANUFACTURES, While al) material wealth comes from the soit, and while the interest of the farmer should, therefore, be first considered, we should at the same time give attention and extend our fostering care ta the :manutac- tures and the Mechanic arts. North Caro- lina pays annually to foreign countries and to her sister States millions of dollars’ for manufactured articles, which shoutd be*pro- duced here at home. We have the raw ma- terial, or the means of producing tho raw material for nearly every fabric for which we pay thus largely to other commanities and regions, It may be assumed that we manufacture our own tobacco, and supply a large surplus thereof to other portions Of the world the proceeds of the sales of which constitute the basis of no small part of the financial prosperity of the State; but while this is so, and while I would commend the tobacco manufactures for their skill, energy and industry, yet T would at the same time urge that more and more capital and skijled labor be employed in other branches of do mestic manufactures. We ought to manufacture and sapply ourselves wilh a large proportion of our woolen clothes of all kinds, especially of the coarser and more substantial kinds. We ought to spin and weave at least one- half of our cotton crop, which cannot be less than 200,000 bales per annum. We ought to manufacture our own iron, from the vast beds of ore which we have in var- ious parts of the State, some of which are not excelled for quality clsewhere in the earth. We ought to get out and use more of our timber, and send more of it than we do, to the markets of the world. We ought to di- rect very much more of our attention and energies to the great work of building up a home market for our people, and living more within ourselves. A policy of this kind would benefit every interest, and would especially redown to the advantage and prosperity of the farmera, by creating a demand here at home for their products. It would also save millions of dollars per annum to the State, which are now expend- ed outside our borders, and which consti- tute a constant drain upon our wealth. It would also diversify labor and give employment to all classes of our people, without which we cannot hope to advante rapidly in intelligence and wealth. I cannot geatlemen too strongly commend this subject to your attention and oonsider- atjon. IMMIGRATION, I beg to renew and urge the recommen- dations heretofore made by wy predecessors and myself ou the subject of imusigration. No State has a timer climate than North Carolina, and her soil is rich and so varied that nearly all the frdits and products of the earth common to our couatry can be cultivated and realized here by the hand of industry. Besideg, we have inexinustible deposits of the most vatuable- minerals ; we have water power in the greatest abundance for turning machinery; and we have vast forests of the best timber thus far barely touched by the hand of. man, In a word, there is no region of the earth, so far as climate and mineral resources are concerned. which is more inviting than our State is to the immigrant. I feel sure that your legis- tion will besueh as to hold out inducements as one of our people, and thus labor with’ those of us who are already here, and who expect to remain to develop our resources, to build up our industries of all kinds and to render our State more and more prosper- ous, enlightened und wealthy. UNIVERSITY. The last General Assembly passed an act directing the Public Treasurer to issue te the Trustees of the University, a certiti¢ate of indebtedness for one hundred and twenty- five thousand dollars, with interest at six days of January and July in each year, out of any moneys in tlie Treasury, not other- wise appropriated, the interest to be used Ly suid Trustees in support of the University, — Under this act the Public Treasurer pay to the University $7,500 per annum for that Pithe University was opened for the rece tion of students on the 10th of Septembe 1875, under its new organization and it is now in successful operstion with Hon, Kemp Professor.

The iron doors and frames have been made and are ready for this section also, In compliance with an act.of the General Assembly the Directors of the. Penitentiary furnished 332 conviets to the Commission- ers of the Western North Carolina Railroad and have built for them three sets of quar- ters. The value of the labor of the convicts al- ready on that road is probably $100,000. The Beate is bound to feed, clothe, and guard them. The increase of the number Of convicts, the increase of the guard and overseers have created a deficiency of $21,678.97 for which the Directors ask an immediate appropria- tion, to mtct the present wants.of the prison. The Directors of the Penitentiary farmed out to the Spartanburg and Asheville Rail- road Company 200 convicts for the period of 2 years. That was done mainly because the appropriation for the Penitentiary, made by the last General Assembly, was insufticient tos rt all the convicts. ‘The Convpany agteed to feed, clothe, guard and furnish medical attention to the prisoners let to them and in addition pay to the prison Di. rectors the sum of $31.20 per capita per year, and have given a Goad $e the faith. tul performance of the contract and all of the provisions of the contract have been faithfully observed and the gq'arterly pay- ments promptly made. There isa foundry and Machine Shop connected with the Penitenticry, which has been proved to. be both necessary, and valuable. The work in this shop both as to quality and quantity has been very satisfactory. All rhe work is done by the convicts and all the iron work required for the building is made here. The blacksmith shop has been kept ‘busy } Munufucturiny fools required in re stone and for othér purposes. The Yabor is | performed by convicts. },, Ju the shoe shop they are now mémufac- turing all the shoes worn by the ¢Gunvicts within the prisom enclosure, also for those } employed ou the different railroads in the ; State. It is believed that a small amount of money invested in machinery for mwanu- | facturing shves would viele a large return; | but owing to the limited means on hand | this important branch of basiness has pot yet been very extensively carried on. In accordance with the requirements of the General Assembly, the Directors’ of the Penitentiary furnished 50 convicte to the Insatic Asylum at Raleigh, who weft éniptoy- }ed in the manufactare of brick, used in the | erection of a new kitchen fog that institu- {tion. The Directors of the Penitentiary al- so furnished the Directors of the Western | Iusane Asylum at Morganton 50 convicts. who were. employed in making bricks and gruding grounds for that ‘institution. The Penitentiary Board of Directors furn- ished the North Carolina & Georgia Rail Road Company 50 convicts This road will form a part of the Western Divisiow of the Western North Carolina Railroad, leading from Asheville to Marphy, } in Cherokee county, and thence via the Georgia Road to Marietta, Georgia This Company is composed of citizens of Georgia and North Carolina, and the State of Georgia is working its couvicts on the road to the North Carolina line, while our people in Cherokee ee agreed to take upon themselves the trouble and expense of transporting, feeding and clothing guarding and turnishing medica) attendance to the cunviets for their dabor. The Board of Directors also farmed out to Matthews & Cu., lessees of the New Han- over work house, 80 convicts for the balance hot their term; they agreeing to feed, ciethe, guard and give.medical attention to the convicts fortheit ksbor. I respectfully invite you, gentlemen, to visit fhe Penitentiary any time at your teis- ure, and ste for yourselves what has been don® and the management and progress of this important State work. I degm it due to truth and justice to say that I have had no cause of complaint against any of the officers and managers of the Peni- tentiary during the last two yearn I be- lieve they have been honest and faithful in the discharge of their duties, and I cheerish none but the kindest feelings for them all.

The last General Assembly passed _alio per annum to the establishment at the Ma- rine. Hespital building at Wilmingten, North Carolina of a branch Asylum for the colored insane, and their support and treatment; but nothing has been done- under said act for their benefit. I respectfully gn earnest recommend the estab!ishment of an asylum for the colored insane, under the samnes rules, regniatiops and troautment as white patients. The col- ored race compose a large part of our popu- lation and help to support our government, and they arc as liable to become insane as the white race, Although they were kept in bondage and iguorance for more than two hundred years Lefore their emancipation, yet they .coatrib- ated largely to improve this country and increase its wealth and prosperity. They live among ua, and we hope they will stay and enjoy with us the benefits and blessings of a free Republican government, ef equal laws and equal rights to all. Ifthe white race compose two-thirds of our population, and there are two asylums for the support vf ‘the white insime, surely the colored “race; com the population, ought, In justice, to have ote asylum for the support’ of the cdloted insane. The subject should appeal strongly to the humanity and charity of the General Assembly, and [ hopé the appeal will not be made in vain. DEAF AXD DUMB AND THE BLIND. I respectfully call your attention to the report of the Principal of the North Caro- lina Institution for the Deaf and Dumb and Blind. , The number of pupils enrolled during the lust two years hus been : Deaf and Dumb males 83; {males 65, Blind males 51; temales 42, 148 93 Total. 141 The average attendance for the past two years has been about 210, sometimes more and sometimes lesa. The health of the pupils has been good, and they all seem to be contented and hap Vv They are taken care of by kind and hu- mane teachers and-matrons, who seem to re- | gard their protection and welfare with as muuch intesést aud anxiety ag if they were their own children. The financial condition of the institution is as fuvotable as could reasonably be ex- pected.

Uni- ted States for the sale of the Western North Carolina Railroad, ‘the purchaser was re- quired to pay $19,000 in cash on the. day of sale, which was done, As soon as a per- fect and indefeasible title to said road could be secured to the State, and as soon as the necessary arrangements eould be made for taking care of cortvicts, they were pat to work oh the road: The Directors of the Penitentiary have’ furnished» the Commis- sionerne of the Western N. C. Road addition- al convicts at different times amounting. to 332. More might have been put to work on that road, but the law requires the Peniten- tiary to feed, clothe and guard them, and it has been impracticable for the Penitentiary to support the large and increasing number of convicts out of the limited appropriation for that purpose made by the last General Assembly. No appropriation was made for an active and vigorous prosecution of this great State work which bas been too tong neglected and which is destined tu be of vast impor- tance to the ‘people of North Carolina. Boon ‘after he had /purehased this road and com- menced work upon it with the limited means at our command, some of the liberal and satriotic citizens of Wilmington, actuated ya commendable spirit of State pride, which has ever characterized the leading men of that. eity, voluntarily , contributed $10,000, which paid for iron enough to lay about three miles of new track of the West- ern North Carolina Railroad.

About ten |. years ago thé Congress of the United States donated to this State a certain quantity of public lands, to beapplied ito the support of an agricultural, college, This donation | was made on the basis of population, and included the cologed people of this State as a pert of otr population as represented in Congress. 2 | The scrip for these lands has been sold, and the amount reeeived, namely, one hun- ' dred and tayenty-five thousand dollars, has heen applied éxclusively to the support of the University at Chapel Hill. The people of the State, including the people of color, are annually taxed to the amount of seven thousand five hundred dollars, by way of interest on the sum of one hundred and twenty-five thousand dollars referred to, and this amount thus raised by taxation .on all the people, is applied exclusively to the ben- efit of the white; University at Chapel Hill. Is it right.to do this, while at the same time no provision is wade for a college, for the colored nels, Is it in accordance with justice to devote all of this interest to one race? I am-aware that suggestions of this kind are not agreeable to some of our - ple, and that in making them I am subject- ing myself to animadversion, and even to reproach, but Iam here in the Executive Chair, not to consult popularity at the ex- principle, but to do what I believe to be right. + Mateps be taken b§ this'General Assembly to vide for the establishment of .9: college the educstian|\of the'calored youth of the EDUCATION, your sttention to eae ng senors af the Superintendent of .

When we look into the causes which make and unmake individ- uals and nations, we may discern that intel- lectual and moral culture are both essential to make a usefulcitizén. All those coun- tries wheréevery child is instructed, control and govern! other jands where only a partial system of education is pt in practice. The position which she will in future hold in thé Republic must greatly depend upon the correct instruction given to the people. Our children must be elevated in the scale of intelligence ere the perpetuity of the Repub- lic can be well assured, and nothing should be permitted to swerve us from our efforts to a! eae education. he plan of giving a free education to every child of ordinary mind in the United States is a noble one, and deserving of the highest commendation. Butin this State more especially there is great need that many of our teachers should be | better taught. Therefore it isof prime importance that there should be some few High Schools: or Graded Schools established where our teachers for both races can be instructed how to teach. Every child has a right to an education, and that education shoulg be such as will | qualify the child for any position in life which it may be called to Send. Every one knows that an intelligent work- man is always worth more than one who. is ignorant of even the rudiments of his voca- tion. It is the purpose and aim of a com- mon school system te prepare pupils to dis- charge the duties of life with credit to them- selves and their State. When this is ac- coniplished, it will promote the happiness and safety of the citizen and the nation. A good system of common schools, well carried out, will prove itself the friend of man and ‘the best of hamsn agencies for the preserva- ition of free government on earth. GRADED SCHOOLS, Allow me tocall your attention to the ‘fmportance of graded schools. Several of these schools have been established in this State and they are conferring signal benefits on the communities in which ‘they ' exist. The education which is received in these schools begins with the rudiments for the little chlidren, and gradually ascends until the larger and older scholais are thorougly instructed jn the higher branches of learn- ing, thus fitting them for the active busi- ness of life without further instruction, or preparing them for college, where they may meke still further and higher in igarning and knowledge. We shou d have both races; and carnestiy recommended that a law be passer by, the General Assembly authorizing cities and towhs of more than fifteen hindfed’ itihabitatts ‘to tax them- feelves by-a majority vote to, graded schools, in which the opportunity for an education shall be freé to all, the whites to themselves and the colored: people to them- sevives, according to the Constitution and laws of this State. SEGRETARY OF STATE. The Secretary of State, in his report, makes some suggestions and recommends- tions which I think worthy. of your atten- tion and consideration. LI believe that the records, books and papers in the affice of Secretary of State have been properly ar- ranged \in regard to order, syaiem apd con- venience.

Rail Road wilhelaim the attention of the Legislature, and we are glad Mr. Purnell has introdaced ‘a bill on the subject. It is said the State saves noth; ing by working her convicts on thigsyad ; those who have contracted to do the work, make more money out of it than contractors before the war could make when they fur- nished hands and everything else. In other words, the State js furnishing the hands to do the work and paying more for it than other men reeejved when furnishing their own hands, We had supposed that the men employed to superintend and direct convict labor on this Road were salaried men, and that the labor of the convicts in- ured to the benefit of the State. Sucli is said not to be the case, The Raleigh Sentinel i> merry over a scene that presented itself in the House after ad- journment on the 25th—a “seramble for free passes” over the Western N. C. Road. The members are entitled to mileage to cov- er transportation expenses, and now here comes in some one and donates a free ticket over this Road which belongs to the State. How much better is this than the back sala- ary grab? The State pays traveling expen- ses, that is all fair; but who pays the State for these free tickets over her Road? If no one, it isa grgd. If some, private gentleman pays for them, representatives and senators ought to inquire “Ia there an axe to grind that will cost the peopie anything ? There is also no little talk about the man- agement of the Western Insane Asylum, and abuses have been alledged, This subject should be looked after, and the people's in- terest protected, if need be, It is due alike to contractors and the people that the busi- ness manavement of all State works should be thoroughly understood. The people are not in a mood to take anything on trust: , —_- WHAT ABOUT IT Much uneasiness has been felt about the muddle in the Presideatial election— more at the North, perhaps, than in the Soath—bat it is giving way to aeecoud sober sense. Many feared it might re- sult in a terrible civil war that would eu- gulf all the bright bopes of our young Republic and b’ot oat the san of civil liberty which for a bandred years bas shed ite genial and life-giving beams apon the world. But the people are gen- erally relinquishing that rather gloomy view of the subject and are bopefully looking for eowe more rational sulaiion of the difeulty of the present than is possible to come of force, hour We have laws aud precedents, reason and common sense; and itis beped that all these will be totally exhausted before invoking the presence of the sipendous evils of such a civil war as would be like ly to eusue if once begau. It would ju some respects be far worse than the late struggle between North and Seuth. I: would be house aguinst house, State against Siale—a consuming fury destroy- ing im all directions and to the last degree, There is too much danger iu this mode of settlemeut fur men ia their senses to chonse it. And yet ft is not impessible. We have, got yet passed throtigh the petilone trialofie final adjuetmeut, Human par- sions are very explosive, and men excit- ed to madness do uot stop to count the cost.

The appended article fiom the New York Sun reflucts their views clearly : “Grant, Sherman, Cameron and Rohe- aon stoully deny that avy troops or ships of war are to be concentrated at or about Washington, Never heless, they are do ing what they deny. ‘I's pacify the peo ple, they blandly reapond to all inquiries : Pray, why do we want tevops or ships here ? “When the conspiracy was organize | facture #ffidavi's without ita being known | ing the returns in South Carolina, Florida to thete adversaries.

The MASON & TIAMLIN ORGAN CO. have the hondr to announce that the organs of their manufacture have ‘been unanimous! assigned “the FIRST.

This is after the severest eompetition by the best makers, before one of the most competent juries ever assembled. They have also received the MEDAL, but, an is well known, medals of equal merit’ have been awarded all articles deemed worthy of recognition ; so that it will be’ easy for many makers to advertise that they have received “first medals.” ; The differences in competing urticles, and their comparative exéetlence, ure recognized in the Reports of the Judges, from, which, the following is an extract: “THE MASON & [0 CO.’s exhibit A Reed Ogun and Har moniums shows . 0 INSTR ) FIRST RAN RE- HE GLA : rye OE equal Seeeasee on iat ressilon, r 0 ity, freedom and qu of keys and. bellows, thorougt ness of work« ap, ¢ | with simplicity of action.” (Signed all the Judges.)

CONFERENCE OF NORTH CARO- LINA. The Sentinel Assurances in behalf of the De- moera and if carried out We shall Have no ground a —— Sor the political affiliations of the colored people in the future. Piymovuta, N. ©., Nov. 11th 1876. To the Editors of the Raleigh Sentinel. Gentlemen : Nothing could bave been more timely than the article in your issue of the 9b inst., addressed to the eolored people. And, under, the circumstances, nothing could be more noble and magnanimous than the epirit manifested by the senti- ments expresecd. I hail this as a beam ot light which betokens the dawn of a brighter day. I am prepared to assert that had such sentiments emanated from the same source nine years ago, you would not have seen what you have witnessed during this unpleasant period of oar history —un- pleasant to you and certainly not less an- pleasant to os, You would not have seen the colored man voting most solidly against the men for whom personally he had the highest possible respect, yea, @ reepectthat amounted almost to reverence. You would never have seen colored men voting tor men who cared nothing for them (except that by their euffrage they conld hold office), bad it not beea that they believed that this was the only way in which they could maintain their own rights, The situation of my people, as you frankly and genorously admit, bas been unpleasant in she extreme. I think you will agree with me that, as a rule, the black man has the organ of approbative- ness large. He loves the approval of his fellow man, especially of the better and more favored class. It bae therefore been what appeared to him the s:ervest neces~ sity, amonoting to a religious duty, that has induced him ta enerstice the good will of those, to have obtaiued which he would have been willing to make any reasvvable sacrifice. As your articles, in substance, admits all this, I will not follow this line of thought farther. You are right, my people do feel slarmed, But if yoa will permit me, I will aug- gest a cause that may not have oreured to you. [ think what has most alarmed my people is the tone of the dem cratic prees. We recrive eo much abuse, 80 little praise, eo little fairness. Our erimes are magnified, our virtues are overlooked. When appeals have been made to as, it has beet dove in a kind of half-threatening style which repulses, or a don't care style that shows a want of beartiness. Iam sure that from your own observation, a bare statement of the case is sufficient to enable you to take in the whole of my meaning. The colored people are more discern- ing, more penetrating than they have the credit for. It is because of the heartincss, the evidence siacesity, running through every line of your article, that [hail it’ with joy, ae well as on account of the source Both Purties Spent the Night in the State House Hall Lighted by as for the First Time in Two Yeurs—linger has not Yet Carried cut his Threat — Thought he Wowld Resign First.

Sajiphh, ag: 42; Died Ne: vember 4th, 1876,” was’ a the pile, and the order was t in a circle, solemn grand and peculiar, a the thortal remains of the deceased rother. Arter the singular er of order had been delivered’ uy the J wet Friar, the torch was solemnly and delib- erately applied to the pile, and at once the flames leaped upward and up- ward, L The coffin was soon enveloped in flames, and thousands saw what had nev- er been known here before—a human body cremated. Balconies, windows, housetops, trees, awnings, to say nothing of the living mass that thron the street, were crowded to witness the pro- ceedings. While the fire was lapping io angry fury the lifeless body of this great man, the Friar delivered in the peculiar language of the order, a most eloquent and touching oration. Soon the coffiu began to crumble, and a ghastly spectacle was presented to the eye. The body, blackened, burning, hissing, smoking, was clearly visible, and as the stifling odors filled the air the shrieks and cries of men, women and chil- dren were heard on all sides. After the funeral fires had burned down, all that was mortal of W. R. Sup- pus was gathered in the urn by the ‘Most Worthy Keeper of the Sacred Relics,’’ and the society, headed by the for the occasion, entitled “He has gone to bis long, long home, unsoaked by water,” returned to the bat, where the ashes were deposited in the vault. ‘Then the society dispersed. — - + PUBLIC AND PRIVATE ROGUES, Opinions may differ as to the cause, but there is no doubt of the fact, that in the days before the war public plundering was unknown at the South. What of it was practiced was confined to the people of “great moral ideas,” our brethren iu- babiting the Northery section of the Union. With the changes induced by the results of the war between the States there has come change iu this respect, South- ern communities now, as well as Northern communities, number among their citizens those who have grown rich by plunder of the people; and Southern commauities, as well as Northern communities, have learned sivce the war to look with com- placency at least upon rogues who pass by the corn-eribs and hen-rooste of their neighbors, but under the forms of law break into the public crib and appropriate the property of the peuple. Pablic opin- ion is still against the petty thief. It needs to be once more roused against the thief who grows rich by theft. The people must learn to think as they once did, ae pereonal and political honesty cannot exist apart, that the man who lies as a _politi- cian will lie as readily, upon occasion, in any other relation of life; that he who plunders the public will plunder the indi. vidual citizen with as little compunction if the pluuder be worth taking. As is well said by the Baltimore Sun, there never was a greater or more pestilent fullacy than that which prevaile in many miods that there is a difference in the guilt of public and private dishonesty, so that the crime of stealing, for example, whieh, when an individual ig. the vietim, brings the wrong-doer iuto universal contempt, becomes as it were diluted and innocuous wheo a whole nation is plundered. Evea the ehameless whisky riug rogues, when couvieted and seut to the penitentiary, are not looked upon as common felons, and have a reasonable prospect of being speed- ily released from the inconvenievee of their confinement by executive interposi- tion—a resalt which has been curiously realized already. Tweed, the gigantic robber of New York city, becomes a kind of hero, and is brought home from bie temporary plice of retreat iu a ship of war, tbe captain of which gives up his cabin ww this felouious guest of the nation, though, it is true, not without strictly guarding him. As to the Credi: Mobilier aod robbing railroad rings in general, ao punishment and scarcely aud public oblo- quy ever overtakes them. ‘They are just as influential with their party and receive as much social consideration as if they had never been suspected of felony. Yet nething ia mare certain than that the moral uality of euch me’ is essentially that of inmates ef the jails and penitentiaries of the lacd. While it may be doubtful whether the regue who picks the pockets of an individes sce the genias to — the pocket#of a nation, there is no oubt whatever that the man who picks the pocket of a nation is capable of pick- iog the pocket of an individual. ‘T'his view of the case ought always to be made prominent, in order that the public thief, if he has no other punishment, may fully understand that he is understood by his fellow men, aud that they are not decciv- ed as to his true inwardness as a rogue and felon becuuse the depredations are public instead of individaal. — Raleigh Observer. li —_—_—_—_————Ooo The, New York Sun says: To count on in fraudulently, is probably the most be the murder of the repablie. be the end of official accuuntability to the —the end of elections.

Briefly stated the reached by Mr. Potter are that in the event of the issue of clearly fraudulent certifi- ‘eates.to the Hayes electors in Louisiana e take the it will devolve on sa to matter in hand, Mr. Potter holds, with r prominent Mr. Randall and many other statesmen and pnblicists—and he cites precedents in support of his opinions —that the President ot the Senate is subject to the direction of the two houses of Con-~ gresa in counting the electoral votes. He contends that votes which are disputed by either house, on the allegation that the are tainted with fraud cannot be ects and that the powers of the two honses being in this respect equal a dead-lock mast eneue. In this case “a contingency may arise which will require the House of epresentatives to elect the President.” The House, he argues, is the sole judge as to whether the exigency has arisen which makes it its constitutional duty to elect a President in consequence of the failure of any candidate to receive a legal majority of the votes in the official count. If the Louisiana Returning Board should fraudulently pronounce the Hayes Elees tors elected the Democrats of that State would dispute it, and whilst Kellogg would give certificatesto the Hayes Electors MeEnery (who has never abandoned his claim to being the rightful Governor,) would give certificates to the ‘Tilden Elee tors. ‘There being thus two sets of cer- tificates, the Senate would throw ont those for ‘Tilden“and the Heuse those for Hayes. In this case the recognized votes for band playing the dirge specially written Hayes would be 177 and for Tilden 184. As 185 is necessary to elect—failing this one additional vote there would be no election by the people. T’be House then, in accordance with the provisions of the Constitution, would proceed to elect a President. It will be recolleted in this connection, and in support of this view, that at the last election there were two sets of certificates from Louisiana, and that as a consequence Louisiana was left out of the count. The precedent is a strik- ing one, though its vote at that time did not in any way affect the resalt, Of the generat programme marked out in Mr, Potter's letter, the Herald says: “This is undoubted the settled Democratic programme. ‘his is the method of pro~ cedure the party chiefs have deliberately resolved tv adopt. We commend their boldness io placing it so early before the country and eubmitting it to the ordeal of public discussion.” + a a PATIENCE—BUT STAND FIRM. [Bellefonte (Pa.) Watchman. J It has been determined by the repub- lican leaders to reverse the figures, or as many of them as may be neceesary, and count Hayes and Wheeler in, instead of ‘Tilden and Hendricks. To help them do this and prevent a rising of the people of those States agaiust this damnable ini- quity, President Grant has ordered: all the available troops into those states and placed them ander the command of Sheri- dan and Ruger. In this emergency, which may preeede a great crisis, our advice to the democra- cy aud to the, thousands of republicans who helped to elect Tilden and Hendricks is, to be calm but firm! While it is not nee- essary to brag and blaster, or to say things needlessly to irritate cur opponents, we must not yield an inch. ‘Their is no more doubt that Mr. Tilden is fairly elected than there is that the 25h of December next will be christmas or the Lat of Jan uary New Year’s day. This great fact is couceeded by the masses of the repub~ lican party as well as by those of the de~ moeracy, aad it is the solemn resolve of the whole peuple, the conspirators against our liberties excepted, that Mr. ‘Tilden shall be inaugurated, 1t must end in this at last. No matter what the present de» lay may mean, or what infamous mon- strosity may arise from it, the people who have voted for and eleeted Mr. Tilden, are determined not to be cheated out of his inaugaration and admiuistration. They wanted a change; they voted for a change, and uoew they have sworn by Almighty God that they will have a change. Let us be patient. Let us be magnanimous, Let ns be charitable. Let.as be calm. Let as. be cool [Let us lp considerate, Let us wait. Bat let og stand by. our victory, and swear before Heaven, calling. God to witoegs, that no power on earth shall de- prive us of them!

In the third section of the third article of the Constitation it is provided that the returns of the election for officers of the Executive Department shall be opened and the vote counted in the presence of a majority of the members of both Houses of the General Assembly. In the second section of the second article, as amended, it is provided that the Legislature shall meet biennially on the first Wednesday after the first Monday in January. In the firat section of the third article of the Con- stitution however, itis provided that the terms of office of the officers of the Exee- utive Department shall begin on the = day of Jauuary next after their elec- tha. The inconsistency in the above provie- ions of the Constitution is apparent gf a glance, and it is incumbent on the Legislatare to cure the defect, as will be seen by reference to the provisions of the thirteenth article, as amended, setting forth the manner in which changes may be hereafter made.. Fortunately, thepro- vieions of that article render it an easy matter to make the neceasary either by fixing another day for the ning of the term of offices of the officers of the Executive Department, or by provid- ing some other mode and time for copating the votes of such officers, All that is necessary is for the preseps General Assembly to agree tothe ameng- ment by a three-fifth vote of each House and to submit it to the qualified voters of the whole State at the next general elec~ tion, and then to use the lauguage of the Constitu'ion, in the event of its adoption by a majority of the votes cast, . amendment shall become a part of the stitution of this State. And just bere, it may not be amiss to remark upon the advantage it is to the people of North Carolina to have their own Conetitation within their own cont With the consent of the people any ¢ in the Constitution may now be cheaply, intelligently and con remedied. Without the consent first for- mally obtained no change whatever ean be made.— And thus at last we realize that the people are once more masters in North Carolina. The figh: haa’ been # long one and many and dark have been the days during ite progress; some indeed there were when there seemed scarcely @ ray of light in the whole horison, thank God, the people are at last victori~ ous. And may we not take hope for the fu- ture in national affairs from our experience in the past iu State affairs? Is it not in the natural order of things in this govery- ment of States, that the government ofthe States should first be and within constitutional boandg, and =i the Federal Government should be rester- ed 1—Is not that building from the foand- - ation up? Let us take fresh hope theg and with renewed vigor fight the battle of constitutional liberty in America and the country will yet right itself. — Raleigh Observer. —_—~a-—_ SOUTH CAROLINA NEWS. oeepete omememes Sixty thousand and five bundred acrea of forfeited land are offered for sale in Georgetown County, and yet Chamber. lain wants to hold on to the gaberaatoria} chair.

Nov. 26, 1876. Dear WatcuMaNn :—I promised to send you a few lines occasionally—this time they are hurriedly pnt up. I found this place smaller than inmy memory jit seemed 25 years age, It has many charming private residences, and the that attractive, convenient and healthy style peculiar to many main streets are Jaid out in ahade trees, making two roudways aa well as two side walks, all wide and never dusty nor muddy, The citizens geperally at once im- press a stranger with the most favorable opin- ion of them, and after the few days I have been among them I am fully convinced that aa a whole they are far above the average, in all those attributes that all like to see ia others, whether they thenselves possess them or not. I found the Band very deficient musically, more than any Ihave ever seen, organized as long as they have been, but, aa I now find, not by their fault, but, as usual, by that of the arrant humbug whom they unfortunately employed as a teacher. They are all young, and good look- ing; talented, ambitious, industrious and. atten, tive; as well as being in every respect of the best class iu thia community; and wil soon be a very fine band of music, There is only one hotel bere, a fine one with a proprietor, Mr. Gasherie, who knows how to keep one, and I should know this well, being quartered with vassing Loard Glam ber- in and Haye pets ove antl and Laurens, &c., but to-night a telegram: from Columbia stating that the Supreme Court the State had imprisoned and fined $1,500 each iv? f WALTER SCOTT, JR! and every meaber of the rascally board, make vearly stripped of S. C. towns and cities, i. e., with three rows of deprem din Neste Covi Rlnasoat tae when I heard all about it. It was the exciting and only topic of conversation with everybody till eharch time, (this is a great church town.) As soon as forenoon churches was out, a stable, close behind the maih ‘beatnod cE wan discovered to be on fire. A strong breeze was blowing, but, fortunately, in a direction endangering no property but a large gin house filled with cotton, at a short distance from the atahle. The stable, large, old and red pine made one of the fiercest fires that 1 ever saw, and it seemed nothing short of a miracle saved the gin house, for the means they have here for protecting and combating at fires are infin- itely more primative than in Salisbury even, but many white citizens worked heroically and “the colored men worked nobly.” This incident furnished matter for excited conversation till supper, then the welcome telegram from Colum- bia came, which was matter of remark till bedtime. Now for a place of 1,300 inhabitants these three affairs, affurded excitement enough fur one (Sun) day. I think. COSMO. — << >o———_—— THE VERY LATEST. SOUTH CAROLINA.

OL HONORS AT THE UNITED STATES CENTENNIAL World’s Exposition, 1876 MASON & HAMLIN CABINET ORGANS Unanimously assigned the “FIRST RANK IN THE SEVERAL REQUISITES” Of such Instruments ! The MASON & HAMLIN ORGAN CO. have the honor to announce what the organs of their manufacture have been unanimous! assigned “the FIRST RANK in the SEV. ERAL REQUISITES of instruments of the class” by the Judges at the CENTENNIAL EXHIBITION at Philadelphia, 1876, and are the ONLY INSTUMENTsS OF THis GEN- ERAL CLASS AWARDED THIS RANK. This is after the severest competition by the best makers, before one of the must competent juries ever assembled. They have aleo received the MEDAL, but, asis well known, medals of equal merit have been awarded all articles deemed worthy of recognition; so that it will be easy for many makers to advertise that they have received “first medals.” The differences in competing urticles, and their comparative excellence, are nized in the Reports of the Judges, from which the following is an extract: “ THE MASON & HAMLIN ORGAN CO.’s exhibit of Reed Organs and Har- ums shows ents of the. ites OF STR MENTS "OF LASS; vis.: Smoothness. an equal distribution of tone, scope expression, resonance singing iy, ra a veliods. wi thirene of Keys an ws, © » Am of workmanship, combiaed with simplicity of action.” (Sign:d by all the Judges.) The Mason and Ham- lin Organs are thus. declared to rank first, not in one or two respects only, but in the SEV- EKAL KEQUISITES of such instruments, and they are the ONLY ones assigned this rank. This triumph was not unexpected, for the Mason & Mamlin Cabinet Organs have uniformly been awarded the highest honors in competitions in America, there having been scarcely six exceptions in hundreds of competitions..

ANNOUNCEMENT, On the 16th day of November, and in the city of Raleigh, the und. rsigned will commence the publication of TOE OBSERVER, a Daily and Weekly Democratic newspaper. Of long experience io their profession as ed- itors, respectively of the Fayetteville Observer and the Wilmington Journal, they do not affect o doubt the soundness of the general judgment which assigna them ability to furnish a news- paper suited to the needs and adapted to the tastes of the people of North Carolina. Differ- ing in politics in the olden time, there was nev- er a difference between the Observer and the Journal in zeal for the interest of North Carn- lina. To promote the one, and to uphold and add to the other, will be the object of The Observer now. Of very decided opinions on qneations of pub- lic interest, and apt to give those opinions plain expression, they deem it the firat duty of a newspaper to furnish its readers with the in- formation necessary to the formation of their opinions—to publish all “the news;” and their purpose ix to make THe OsseRver now, as of old, a truthful, accurate, condensed history of the times in which we live. It was thus that “the old Observer” won its hold upon the peo- North Carolina, enjoying the affection of pieof N its party friends, receiving the respect and con- fidence of its bitterest political foes, and com- manding in its comparatively isolated location a circulation larger than hasever been attained by au other North Carolina newspaper, and it is thus, by like dignity, and fairness that the editors of Tug Ons@rver, transfer to the State Capital, hope it will deserve, and soon equal and then surpass, its former circulation’ an ily. It will be their high aim to deserve the pab lie confidence by earnest elforts to promote the publie Welfare, first and foremost of North Car- olina, next of wll the Southern States and, finally, and throuch these of the whole Union. They think that this can only be effected by the preyalence of Democratic principles, and and the dismissal of the Radical party from the Places and power which they have so greatly abused and under whose baleful rnle the South has been outraged and the whole country has been impoverished and disgraced. ° PETER M.

Such of them as did not hold the certificate of the State Can- vassing Board had the authority of the highest tribunal of the State—the Su- preme Court—for their presence.

Whilst comparatively « new feature in our Educational System, this is not true in other sections of the United States. “Rip Van Winkle” characterizes North Carolina as truly in Education as in politics, The idea appears to have originated in the New England States about 1840, thence spread- ing over the Middle States and throngh many of the Western ; never however, as yet having secured a firm footing in the South. Such meetings were, and ure, often culled Institutes, continuing for several days, sometimes for weeks, and being in fact regular schools, having teachers, recitations, &c, as in our ordinary schools. They were often aided by appropria tions from the State. Tieiv objects were varied; principally the more thorough training of the Teacher for his work, an elevation, of public sentiment towards the profession, and the promotion of professiun- al and social intercourse among Teachers; all of which, with others, we hope gradually to accomplish in our future Association. Aa to its success, it is needless to say thatall depends on the indiyidual interest and activity shown by each member. It has proven a com- plete success in other sections, aud it is soon to be seen whether Rowan, Davie, and other counties can furnish as good a quota of true, energetic, earnest Teachers as other places have done: we hope she can, and to this end we call upon each Teacher reading this article to de- termined forthwith to be present in person at the proposed meeting, prepared tou take a ac- tive part in the dutiesof the day, order of exercise may be somewhat irregular.

It has exerted a power over millions both inthis and other countries, and is destined to continue on down to generations unbora—exciling men to emulate his glurivus life and character.

It cannot be measured—it cannot be told, fur it from earth to heaven. reaches But the selection of striking examples for the purpose of illnstration, should not be an- derstood as restricting the application of the rule to rulers in high places only. The law applies to all persons in authority, especially to those elevated by the voice of the peuple. It applies to rulers of towns, of counties, and States, as well as to rulers of nations. A good ruler in atown exerts a powerful influence over the people of that town; and if he is a man widely known, reflects upon its inhabitants his good fame as far around as he is known; for it will be set down to their credit for having chosen such 2 man to exercise authority over them. Bat the influence of the ruler, high or low, is chiefly felt by the people ef the pro- yiace;—in making them contented, proaperous and happy, or the reverse. The ex and life of the ruler will be copied by many of the people in obedience to one of the laws of our nature, just as it'was when the lsrag priests went a whoring after ptrange gods) and the pedple followed them. Or as when they re- pented and turn from that wickediess they catried the people with them.

The MASON & HAMLIN ORGAN CO. have the honor to announce that the organs of their manufacture have been unanimously assigned “the FIRST RANK in the SEV- ERAL REQUISITES of instruments of the class” by the Judges at the CENTENNIAL EXHIBITION at Philadelphia, 1876, and are the ONLY INSTUMENTS OF THis GEN- ERAL CLASS AWARDED THIS RANK. This is after the severest competition by the best makers, before one of the must competent juries ever assembled. They have also received the MEDAL, but, as is well known, medals of equal merit have been awarded all articles deemed worthy of recognition; so that it will be easy for many makers to advertise that they have received “first medals.” The differences in competing articles, and their comparative excellence, are recognized in the Reports of the Judges, from which the following is an extract: ‘THE MASON & HAMLIN ORGAN CO.’s exhibit of Reed Organs and Har- moniums shows. Instruments of the FIRST RANK IN THE SEVERAL RE- UISITES OF INSTRUMENTS OF HE CLASS; viz.: Smoothness and equal distribution of tone, scope of expression, resonance andsinging qual- ity, freedom and quickness in action of keys and bellows, with thorough- ness of workmanship, combined with simplicity of action.” (Signed by allthe Judges.) The Mason and Ham- lin Organs are thus declared to rank first, not in one or two respects only, but in the SEV- EKAL REQUISITES of such instruments, and they are the ONLY ones assigned this rank. This triumph was not unexpected, for the Mason & {lamlin Cabinet Organs have uniformly been awarded the highest honors in competitions in America, there having been scarcely six exceptions in hundreds of competitions, They were awarded highest bonors and FIRST MEDALS Paris 1867; Vienna '73 Santiago 75; PHILADELPHIA, 1876, and have thas been awarded highest Luuurs at Every World’s Exposition at which they have been exhibited; being the | ONLY AMERICAN CRGANS which have ever obtained ANY AWARD at any competition with best European makers, or in any Euro) Worid’s exposition / NEW STYLES, with improvements, exhibited at the CENTENNIAL; elegant new cases in va- riety.

Differ- ing in politics in the olden time, there was nev- era difference between the Observer and the Journal in zeal for the interest of North Caro- lina. To promote the one, and to wphold and add to the other, will be the object of The Observer now. Of very decided opinions on questions of pub- lic interest, and apt to give those opinions plain expression, they deer it the first duty of a newspaper to furnish its readers with the in- formation necessary to the formation of their opinions—to publish all “the news:” and their purpose is to make Tue OnserveER now, av of old, a truthful, aceurate, condensed history of | the times in which we live. It was thus that “the old Observer” won its hold upon the peo- ple of North Carolina, enjoying the affection of its party friends, receiving the respect and con- fidenee of its bitterest political fues, and com- manding in its comparatively isolated locat’ on a circulation Jarger than has ever been attained The Undersigned offers fur sale the plan- tation which he formerly lived apon, lying immediately on the publie road leading from Salisbury to Cheraw, 10 miles South-east of Salisbury, containing 250 ACRES, of whieh there is about one half wood land. the other portion is meadow, pasture and tilable land. ‘There is on the preinises a good dwelling, good barn. and all necessa- ry out-buildiugs.

WARING’S VIEWS. Wasutnaton, D.C., Dee. 9, 1876. Editor News : The Presidential muddle is the sole topic of conversation in all circles here. Yoo hear it in the Capitol, at the Hotels, aod i.deed everywhere, and yet nothing more can be learued here that in Raleigh or Charlotte. Al that I can say is that our friends are bopetul of a peaceful so- lation. It ia rumored that the Republi- cans held a caucas last night and bave determined to make Senator Shermaa President of the Senate. If this shoald prove to be trae, the open attempt to stifle the voice of the two Houses of Con- our triends hope will rather help than injure the right. Tere is one thing certain, that let the matter result as it may, peace will be preserved. The Northern Democrats will submil, and take these chances to preserve civil lib- erty and constitutioual law through the faiure action of the two houses. My opin- jon is that if the Senate count in Hayes the House will not go beyond a protest, certainly will not attempt to elect Mr. Tilden. When we recollect there is not asingle Democratic Legislature in the North, yoa will see at once how hopeless sach an attempt must prove. I have by ho means giveu up allhope. The action of the Governer of Oregon may yet un-~ ravel the Gordian knot. If the Congress decide that the Vice-President is merely a ministerial officer in counting and de- claring the vote, that will let iu the one vote fur Lilden frown Oregon which will give him the constitutional majority. It it should be decided to go behind the eer tifieate in that instauce, it opeus the door, and an investigation inte the vote of the contested States must follow of course. Mr. Edwunda, of Vermont, bas a propo sition before the Senate to amend the conetitution as to constitate the Supreme Uourt the tribunal to coant the vote and delare the result. ‘There are serious ob- jectious to this, and it @ill To think, fail. itis parely a political queetion and, if adopted, will do more to wenkeu the con- fidence and reapect the country has for this august body than anything that has ever happened. Our people should re- main quiet. An indisereet act on the tof any Southern State will be quick Eecized upon and turned to our disad- vantage. We may lose the fruit of our toil, our hopes may be blighted, buat we will not be one whit worse off than we have been for the past eight years. Our northern brethren love liberty, but ean- not, I think, be made to believe that it will be deatroyed even if Hayes is coun-~ ted in by force and fraud. Your friend, R. P. Warine. SOUTH CAROLINA. HAMPTON INAUGURATED. Imposing Ceremonies —A Dense Crowd— ‘The House Tops Covered With Spectators. ‘ THE INAUGURAL ADDRESS. Cotumara, S. C., Dee. 14.—The in auguration of Hampton took place in froutof Carolina Hall this afternoon. The equare in front of the Hall was densely packed by persons ef both races, and the house-topa were covered with apectators. Art 3:30 o'clock Hampton Was escorted to the stand amid demounsta- Viens of great enthusiasm. The members of the General Assembly occapied the Space immediately surrounding the stand, with the crewd in the rear. Gen. Hamp- ton then read his inaugural address, of which the following is an extract: “Geutlemen of the Senate and House of Representatives: It is with feeling of profoundest solicitude that [ assame the arduous duties and grave respousibil- ies ot the high poeition to whieh the »ple of South Carolina have called mo. tis amid events unprecedents in this republicthat I take the chair as Chief /Plagistrate of thia State. In a time of wena peace when no legal officer bad resisted in the proper discharge of Ais fanctions we have witnessed a specta- ele abhorrent to every patriotic heart and fatal to Republiean institutions—fgdera! troops used to promote the success Of a Political party, Undismayed, though alvcked by this gross violation of the onativaijon of the country, our people - With a determination that uo force could subdue, no fraud could defeat, kept stead- ily, ond lyin the path of duty, : to assert their right as American ~Treemen, at the ballot box, that great court of final resogt, before which must be tried » Me grave question of tha su of the constitution and the sta of or ~ Sonstiruency, and oar institutions. What the verdict of tfle people of South Caroling . been, you need not be told; it has Teverberated througbogt the State and its echoes come back to us from every land where liberty is venerated, declaring in ee H e fronted them and tion were examined and a upou by a cor ofthe guard. It was ami cheat ap bahieg seenes that the members v/ the general assembly were called on to assume their daties as the representatives of a free State, and that State one of the original thirteen, who won our independ- ence and framed our constitution, was debarred the free exercise of their rights by the presence of an armed foree. A legal quorum of the Lower House, after placing ow record their test, quietly withdrew from the Capitol and proceeded to organize that branch of the General Assembly. You bave seen a minority of the House usarp the powers of the whole body; you have seen the majority expells ed from their ball by threats of force; you have seen persous having no shadow of a claim as members, admitted to seats as Representatives by the votes of men who themselves were acting in direct violation of the constitution; and you have seen the last crowning act of infamy by which a candidate for the effice of Governor, de-~ feaied by the popalar vote, had himeelf declared elected by his conspirators. It is due to my position as the Ubiel Magis- trate of this Commonwealth to place on record my solemn and indignant protest agaiot acts which I consider as subversive ot civil liberty and destructive of our form of government. A great task is before the Couservative party of this State. They entered on thie contest with a platform eo broad, so strong, 80 liberal that every honest citizen could stand aponit. They reeoguized aud accepted the amendments to the cou- stitution in good fiith; they themselves to work reform and to establish good government; they promised to keep up an efficient system of public education, and ihey declared solemaly that all citizens of South Carolina, of both races and of voth parties should be regarded equal in the eye of the law; all to be fully protect- ed in the enjoyment of every political right now possessed by them. ‘I'v the faithful observance of these pledges we stand committed, and as the represeata- tive of the Conservative party I beld myself bound by every dictate of honor aud of good faith to use every effort to have the pledges redeemed fully and bon- eatly. Let as show to all of them that the true iuterest of both races can best be secured by cultivating peace and promo- ling prosperity amoéug all classes of oar fellow citizens. I rely confidently on the support of the members of the General Assembly in my efforts to attain theee laudable ends, end I trust that all branch- es of the government will unite cordially in this patriotic work. If so united and workivg with resolute will and earnest determination, we may hope soon to see the dawn of a brighter day for oar State, God in His infinite merey grant that it may come speedily, and may He shower the richest blessings of oS aud happi- nees on our whole people.” At the close of the address the oath of office was administered by ‘Trial Justice Marshall. Hampten as Govergor and te W. D, Sim ae Lieut. Goverwer; the crowd standing uncovered while the cer- eunony was being performed. The chair in which Gen Hampton was seated was then wrapped in the wational colors, and he was borne on the shoulders of a dozen men to his hotel, escorted by the entire crowd. Several prominent gentlemen addressed the multitude from the front of the hotel, the Congressional commitice oceupying a prominent position on ove of the balconies; after which the crowd quietly diepersed.

The effort made by the Legislatare o 1874-'75 to consolidate the debt of the State, proves in the main almost entirely fruitless. The act of 1874-'75, entitled “An act to compromise, commute and settle the State debt,” authorized the issuance of new bonds of the State for certain classes of old bonds, at rates fixed by the statute. he whole scheme res- ted upon the willingness of the ertditors to make the exchange provided for; and the law was therefore experimental in its nature. Intending it as sach, a period was fixed for the operations of the act. Section 9, says that “‘the provisious of thie act for the exchange and issue of bonds shall continue in force antil the first day of Jancary, 1878." Bat a short time, then, remaius for the further execa- tion of the act; and unless re-enacted it must soon become a dead letter on the statute books. Io a commanication from the State Treasurer to the General Assembly, which we point én another page this morning, it ie dietinetly set forth to what extent there bas been @ compliance on the part of the creditors of the State with the act of 1874-'75. Nothing has been done by the Treasurer towards carrying the act into effect. The reasons for this are fully stated. The sumof it is that the public creditors declined the propo~ sition of the Sate. Mr. Jenking reports that ep to June 24, 1876, there had been only $22,800 offered, calling for $9,030 of boude; and that at that date $483,600 | more were offered calling for $121,350 of | the new bonds.”’ As the expense of en- ving bonds woald be considerable, Mr. Yeakins did not think it advisable to in- eur such expeuses when only about ene bond in fifteen or twenty would be broaght in. In addition to this he gives other substantial reasens for his noa-con- pliance—such as the physicial impossi. bility to sign the coupons as required, and euadry defects in the law which would be developed in its execation. On the whole it was manifestly bie duty to defer the matter to the meeting of the General Assembly, when the defective portions of the act might be cured. The qaestion now arises, stall this act re-enacted after the Ist of January, xt, with amendments ee by the wisdom ot the present Legislature, or shall tbe law be allowed 10 become 4 dead letter and the whale question of the settlement of the public debt be sufferea to fall back to where it was before the _ocT he eabject is one of vital importance Carolina. The. duty of re-es- ing et the earliest ‘moment Returns in the Office of the. Secretary |. 1 ’ NO ILLUSIONS! is no time to ind in pleasing . ‘What the “ ‘sbeald un- the exact trath, start and it may be. | derstand is ag me ie ree elections the rule has prevailed, and has not been disputed or ae ag that while the counting was one by the two Houses together, as has been the practice from the beginning of the Government, the objection of either House to the vote of any State sufficed to exclude that State altogether from the count. Now, however, a different meth~ od is to be introdneed. The opening of the votes and the counting is to be done in the Senate Chamber, because, as the Washington correspondent of the Tribune informs the public, “there are grave reasons why the Scnate should not put itself in the power of the House, which need not now be more than hinted at.” The President of the Senate, having the returns in his hands, is to open these that he deems proper, to count them by himeelf alone, and declare the result as he sees it. Oaly those envelopes from the disputed States that he knows to contain votes for Hayes will be opened by him, and the others will be altogetl-r ignored, whether they coutain a Governor's certificate or not. The House is to be invited to be present in the Senate Chamber, but is not to be alluwed to have any voice as regards the coun ting, to offer objections to the vote of any State, or to take any action what ever beyond being present to witness what is dove and said by the President of the Senate. Thas Mr. Hayes is to be declared elected, and if the House should make any troablesume demonstration, Gen. Grant will deal with it, “If,” said Grant on Sunday, as he is reported ia the N. Y. Times of yesterday, “If there should be any necessity for more troops, he would order them to Washington. We should have peace, if we had to fight for it.” Next comes the jnvauguration on the 4th of March. Thie is also to be managed by Gen. Grant with tbe soldiers and the bayonets of the United States. ‘This echeme involves the necessity for getting control 6f the House of Repre- sentatives, and thia end is to be attained by means similar to those employed to make Hayes President. By couniing out members really elect in Lonisiana, South Carolina, and Florida, the actual Dewmoeratic majority ia the next [Louse is believed to have been already reduced to only one wember, while there are three vacancies in New Hampshire t> be filled atthe annaal election in March next. ‘These three vacancies must be filled by Republicans. A year ago the Tribune in along review of New Hampehire poli- tics, stated that any election in that Scate could be carried by bribery. By thie means, or by any other, it is intended that after Mr Hayes has been inaugura- ted, a working majority shall be made for him in the Hoase of Representatives, siuce without this it would be impossible for him to carry on the Government, as it is not expected that the present House will vote any general appropriations that can be availed of after the end of the present fiseal year. This is the scheme just as it etands. For this scheme the Republican party aud all the statesmen of that party so far stand responsible. Ne voice of dissent againet it has yet been heard fiom any Republican quarter, influential or not in- finential. ‘The Republicans have the physteal power. The army is theirs, just as the Returning Boards of the South are theirs, aud no_ illusion about their purpose to use this power to the bitter end can any longer be admitted. The consummation of their purpose means the end of government by the people through elections, and the substita- tion of government by an oligarchy of officeholders through public robbers or- ganized as Retarning Boards; eapported by soldiers, and ecurning law and the forms of law. SENATOR FERRY. The denial by Mr. Ferry, the Ire -ident of the Senate, that he had expressed the opinion that the President of the Senate would couut as well as open the electoral vote, isa _ sign. Unlees Mr. Ferry does so hold, it would seem impossible to earry ont the Radical programme. Mr. Ferry was, by a formal resolution of the Senate, declared to be the President of the Senate daring the present Congress. This was done after the death of Vice President Wilson, and in otder to settle the right to the succession in case Presi- dent Grant should die. The Radical pro- ramme is to remove Mr. Ferry and put enator Sherman in bis place, to which little operation the Michigan Senator will, doubtless, very seriously object. Indeed, it may be set down, that without bis ac- tive co-operation the whole scheme will be a failure. It is a matter of sincere con- ion, therefore, to learn that he so emphatically denies having given expres- sion to the opinion attributed to bim.— y Republicans | Georgia, and_ -] cussion, Whether it was the intention of JSE THE’ ‘808 Ooar ieee cent elections in Lonisiana, Florida, * and ed the range of its inquiry into Alabame, aad the years 1875 and 1876. By this proceeding the situation will- be 4 4 latter more | wecond | ®°mplicated then it already. ie, and new |' questions will be epened for angry die-~ Mr. Edmunds to divert the public mind | from the monstrous frauds in the three States which the Returning Boards have counted for Hayes, will appear hereafier. It may be assumed in advance that these committees will d radically in their conelusions, and in their coloring of the material facts in each ‘case. One side hag to expose fraud of the worst yee and abe <a side has to onsequet. tly, there is little, if of bare Mn the ebb ay paper which John Sherman and bis asso- ciates signed in New Orleans, and their eulogy of ihe Rerarning Board, which Republican committees had previously branded with infamy, it is easy to foresee what sort of docament Howe, MeM and Wadleigh will lay before the Senate. The conspirators in South Carolina, Florida, and Louisiana will, of course, throw every possible impediment in the way of a searching investigation by the House committees, until their own friends of the Senate appear upon the ground. There is reason to believe they have been already advised to pursue that course from Washington. ‘The original plan of Mr. Morton was to conduet this investiga- tion at Washington, bat when the policy ef the House was fully developed, the programma was ebanged to its present form. All the retarns, records, and reports connected with the elections in these States are in the hands of Kellogg, Cham- berlain, Stearns, aud their subordinates, who, in some form or other, were connect~ ed with the frauds that have been imposed on the country, instead of the votes that were really cast. They, of course, will not scruple at any means by which these iniquities may be ostensibly sustained. If the sappression of evidence, or the mauufactare of testimony, or the falsifi- calion of papers be necessary, there will be no lack of hands to produce them. The Senate will, of course, be guided by the reports of ite own committees, and will not consider even the minority views that may be presented. The Republicens have sutetautially made up their minds, and they are preparing a case for the public to defend that judgment. They mean to count Hayes iu, and they are sustained in that purpose by Grant and all the power which his Administration can exert. All disguise has been thrown off, and every day develops some new scheme to promote this desi za. The people who are watching the turn of events at Wasbington will sift the wheat from the chaff of the two sets of reporte that will probably be laid before Congress by the end of this month. Truth will assert itself in spite of all attempts at perversion, and the coantry will soon set- tle down to the cenelusion which of the two, Hayes or Tilden, is fairly elected. When three States, with all the election machinery in the bands of the Republi- cane, with the army stationed to help them under the orders of partisan mar- shales, and with thousands of depaties scattered at the public expense as élee- sioneering agents, return ic ma-~ jorities, it will require something more than the stale eharge of intimidation to make the of the United States ac~ cept the ts declared in secret by three Returning Boards. These committees will probably not exert the least influence in bringing the Senate and House of otatives nearer together than they now are, or in soft- ening the asperities of the debates. Bat the testimony collected by both will ena- ble the great body of intelligent and~ in- dependent men, regard the present erisis as invelving consequences far graver than the suecees of either Tilden or Hayes, to form a candid jadgment that will go far to shape public opinion, which is more powerfal than the President, his Cabiuet, aud all the conspirators around them combined. —N. Y. Sun. GEN. GRANT'S ALLEGED CON- TEMPT FOR JUDICIAL AU- ‘THORITY. The coarse language in reference to a State Court attributed to Gen, Grant in the reports in the public journals a few days since, would be comparatively mioor importance were it not followed up by acts in strict accordance with its spirit. The report was that the President of the United States, in an interview with mem- bers of the national Legislature, ased this extraordinary language: “J don't care a damn for Supreme Court of South Carolina.” The action of the President has been suited to these words. He does not seem to eare for any civil authority. Hesends an armed of an ad. aes party : . r the interest of the eountry, and eepecially of the Con- servative Y, which carried the election of last November, that there should be uo outbreak, no act of violence, no attempt avis — le: resistance to the usurpation, no for Serie? “7 for wee weapons by which this conspiracy can alone be safely and surely rellahs are moral weapons—appeals to the cons science, the judgment, and the patriotism of the people, appeals to them to save the work of the fathers, to maintain the Con- stitution, to rescue free institutions.

The conspiracy to ive the le of this nation of the “ to ahotin thle President was foreshadowed by prominent Republicans even before the earliest voter had thrown his ballot on the morning of the seventh of November. The predie~ tions of Mr, Blaine, Newton Booth Murat Halstead, and others, have been verified so fully by the course of events up to this time, that we naturally recur to their lengeege for light on the further develop- ment of the plot. Three weeks before election day the following prophecy issued forth from the St. Louis jail, where the Republican editor of the Globe-Democrat was then confined for whiekey thieving : “No man elected by the process resorted to by the Democrats of South Carolina will ever be allowed to take his seat as President of the United States. This is our deliberate judg- ment.” Two weeks before elcction day James G. Blaine, in a speech at Buffalo, predict- ed Tilden's election in case New York went Democratic, and thea turning to his Republican auditors, asked, “Will you allow him to be inaugurated in that event?” Two weeks before election day Senator Newton Booth of California, in the course of a talk with a reporter of the San Francis- co Chronicle, said : “In the way matters stand at present, in case the @nal deciaratioa of the choice for President depended upon the acceptance of the vote of one or more of the Southern States to which troops had been sent, the House would inevita- bly refuse to allow it to be counted in, and an appeal to force would be necessary in order to settle the matter. “Reporter—W hat do you mean by force ? “Senator Booth—Physical force—war. * * * I think it is remarkably fortunate for the coun- try that we have a Republican President who is also Commander-in-Chief of the army, so that in the event of any serious complications the Government has at its head a man who will see it protected. There are a good many reasons why the Democrats should not be suffered to gain control of the Government.” Two weeks before election day Mr. Murat Halstead, editor of the strongest Republican newepaper in the West, and a close pal friend of Mr. Hayes Satoh oa prophetic ground. His : guage was so remarkable that we printed | it at the time, and reproduced it here; “If New York should happen ‘to go Demo- | 8© cratic, the — ility piers aie be a disposition on the part of the icans to throw out the vee of those Southern States which were carried for Tilden by the intimida- tion of the blacks. I have heard the suggestion made that it would be moral perjury in Vice- President Ferry-and President Grant if they should consent to allow the electoral vote of States to be cast for the restoration of the Soutlt= ern Confederacy, when they knew that a ma- jority of the people of those States had been practically disfranchised, and when they had in their hands the legal proof of that fact. “Now, if the Presidential election should turn upon the yotes of say Mississippi, South Carolina, Florida, or it would be impossible to avoid a desperate di between the two legislative Houses of the Government. The way is already prepared, by the declara- tions of Republican Senators, for Mr. Ferry, acting Vice-President, to assume the entire re- 8 bility of counting the electoral votes. House will of course, consent to this, The next thing is the ition of President Grant. Grant is the mander-in-chief of the Army and Navy of the United States. The uestion would arise whether he vould sustain Mr. F in the Senate. I im- agine that the would. weight of inference is that he he would do it by proclama- tion. That is what in the Spanish-American blics are iami The sit- easton wilt oat cieely didicalt, if not has- ardous. Trouble would come upon us in a more shape than it did sixteen years There is a sort of Mexican miasma in the polit- cal air.” Atthe time of their utterance these vaticinations were generally regarded as the voicings of demagogy or of folly. In the light of sabsequent events they show that two months ago the leaders of the office-holding party bad already determin- ed upon a desperate programme in case of defeat at the polls. Whatever the re- sult of the election, they were not to be disturbed in the enjoyment of place and power. ‘To retain and power, they were to resort, if necessary, to Mexican methods. It will be seen that the programme of the consp as indicated by Senator Booth and more explicity by Mr. Hal- stead, hae been carried out thus far to the letter.

Seventeen out of the 25 | assembled at the time aud place; about half and half Democrats aud Republicans; aud after a free iuterchange of views they resolved on holding a larger meeting this week, which should embrace as many of ihe business men of the city as can be induced to attend. ‘The meeting is to have no direct political significance ; that is, shall not take sides with either Me.

We were uot present, bat learn that their services were solemn and impressive, They also delivered a leetare at Meroney's Hall, Sunday night, on the The Hall well filled, and the atteaiion evila of Tutemperauce. was of the au- dience close. Mr. ‘l'atam came forward tirst, in brief review of what had been done in other States to restrict the liceused sale of intoxicating liquura, advocated the le gal process of dealing with the subject as the true and only real efficient one. He then produced his diagrams illustrating the cffeet of liquor on the stomach. His wife closed the exercises in an appropriate appeal to the women to labor iu this cause. We hope their eff.rts in this cause will be successful; fur if there is any one thing more needful of reform than this wanton waste of money, talent and time, we don’t kuow of it. Indeed it is appal. ling to think of intemperance with the accompaning waste and misery. Our land is a broad expanse of waste ; a hewling wilderness of poverty, misery and death ; a way-ride where bright minds aud rare intelligects grow and flourish for a sea- son, seemingly but to wither under the blighting hand of intemperance. And there is no help. We trust these people may du some good in their tour south, which they say is their only object in making it. ‘They are bigh- ly reeommeuded by good and worthy men amongat us, as gealous and intelligent chris- tians, and will doubtless meet a cordial reception wherever they go.

Epitors; Having recently beep introduced to the Watchman by my chum, | shought it would be a pleasure to me, if not to yoyr readers, to contribute a few idle reflections, and facts, with which the present time is so pregnant, While the public mind has been torn and distorted for several months, by the excitement incident upon the election of the chief executives of the United States, our little-viHage of Trinity has been entirely unmolested by the raging ele- ments. It seems as an Eliz, where tbe din of war, end the clash of contending factions do not intrude their blighting influence. Yet we have luoked through the eye uf the press and watched the political tornado as it swept over our coantry. However much some may be disposed to despise the students retreat, we are perfectly satisfied, especially since we have a “Watchman” to keep us posted, when we en- quire, “what of the night?” But, though the contest is over, and the beating blast have ceased to strike, yet we can feel the vibrations of the troubled waters, The foaming billows have almost ceased to present a threatening appearance, yet the angry clouds lower gloomi- ly above us.

The best literary talent of the whole country, North and South, is writing for it, and it has something each week for all classes of readers. Its stories are superior in literary merit, and equal in thrilling interest to those of any other paper, and its es- says upon all subjects are from the best minds of the age. In addition to thrilling new stories, a series of brilliant articles will soon begin on the Campagn and Battles of the Army of Tennessee, by Colonel B. W. Froset, a dis- tinguished military engineer of that army ip all its trying times. ‘Chese papers will explain all the movements of Generals Johnston, Heod and Shvrman, Don’t miss any of the numbers.

To THE EDITORS OF THE WATCIIMAN: Arkansas com prises 52,198 eqnare miles, in- cluding more rich creek and river valley land and a greater length of navigable rivera, in a very mild and salubrieus climate than any other area of the same extent on the earth’s sur- face. And the river-lands of Arkansas have long been known to be unsurpassed in yalue for the cultivation ofcorn and cotton, The introduction of inrproved plows and other implements of agriculture, has shown thatthe prairie lands, which were heretofore regarded of no value except for grazing, are really the most produc- tive of the uplands of the State, and that othe: uplands possess a capacity of production not heretofure imagined. The opening of the coal mines on the Arkansas river, at Spadra Bluff, on Horsehead creek and on IIlinois bayou, by the enterprise of men who did not hesitate to invest capital sufficient to answer the desired end, has developed a quality of coal which sells atthia moment, in St. Louis for eight and twelve dollars a ton, when Tennaylvania and Iliaois coal comumadsin the aame city only four dollars a toon.. Beds gfiron ore, minea of galena and copper, veins éf plumbago and the | inconiparable *whet#tone 6f Hot Springs are being discoveréd in increaséd quantities. Two great lines of railway have been constructed, | which intersect the State nearly at right angles, | These and the extension of other great lines have given an impetus to business and the im- proveinent of the State, which marks the begin- ning of a new era in ita history. By means of these channels of trade, the fruit- grower in Arkansas, ia enabled to transport peaches and grapes to Bt. Louis and Chicago and other Northern cities, a month or more in advance of the season of those fruits there, while he may supply Texasand Mexico with | the apples they do net produce at all. And the great forests of oak, walnut, pine, cedar and cypress are brought to the duore of treelew Texas and within reach of the untimbered plains of the “Far West.” And the great coal and mineral deposits are proving sources of rapidly accumulating wealth. ; And by means of them the cotton planter is rendered independent of the uncertain and treacherous navigation of the rivers and free to chore among many markets for the sale of his erops and at his own convenience. “fhe institution of slavery having been dis carded, all labor is free and to be freely sought his just recompense.

GENERIS] ST HORS UNITED STATES CENTENNIAL World’s Exposition, 1876 MASON & HAMLIN CABINET GRGANS Unanimously assigned the “FIRST RANK IN THE SEVERAL REQUISITES” Of such Instruments! The MASON & HAMLIN ORGAN CO. have the honor to announce that the organs of their manufacture have been unanimously assigned “the FIRST RANK in the SE ERAL REQUISITES of instruments of the class” by the Judges at the CENTENNIAL EXHIBITION at Philadelphia, 1876, and are the ONLY INSTUMENTS OF THIS GEN- ERAL CLASS AWARDED THIS RANK. This is after the severest competition by the best makers, before one of the most competent juries ever assembled. They have also received the MEDAL, but, as is well known, medals of equal merit have been awarded all articles deemed worthy of recognition ; so that it will be easy for many makers to advertise that they have received “firat medals.” The differences in competing urticles, and their comparative excellence, ure recognized in the Reports of the Judges, from which the following is an extract: “THE MASON & HAMLIN ORGAN CO,’s.exhibit of Reed Organs and Har- moniums shows Instruments of the FIRST RANK IN THE SEVERAL RE. UISIT. OF INSTRUMENTS OF HE ; viz.: Smoothness and equal distribution of oe scope = expression, resonance and singi Tal- ity. freedom and quickness in adtion 0 keys and bellows, with thorough- ness .of. workmanship, combined with simplicity of action.” (Signed by allthe Judges.) The Mason and Ham- lin Organs are thus declared to rank first, not in one or two respects only, but in the SEV- EKAL REQUISITES otf such instruments, and they are the ONLY ones assigned this rank. This triumph was not uuexpected, for the Mason & Wamlin Cabinet Organs have uniformly been awarded the highest honors in competitions in America, there having competitions. They were awarded honors and FIRST MEDALS Paris 1867; Vienna 73 Santiago ‘75; PHILADELPHIA, 1876, and have thus been awarded highest honors at highest Every World’s Exposition at which they have been exhibited; being the ONLY AMERICAN ORGANS which have ever obtained ANY AWA RD at any tion with best European makers, or any World's exposition !

ANNOUNCEMENT, On the 16th day of November, and in the city of Raleigh, the undersigned will commence hthe publication of THE OBSERVER, a Daily'and Weekly Democratic newspaper. in thelr > o- which assigns them ty paper suited to the needs and to the cme of eee nent Differ- ing in po n the olden time, there was nev- era difference between the Observer and the Joarnal in zeal for the interest of North Caro- lina. To promote the one, and to and add to the other, will be the object of The Observer now. Of very decided opinions on qnestiona of lic interest, and apt to give thore plain expression, they deem it the firat of & newspaper to furnish its readers with the in- formation necessary to the formation of their opinions—to publish all “the news;” and their purpose is to make THe OsseRvVER now, as of old, a truthful, accurate, condensed history of the times in which we live. It was thus that “the old Observer” won its hold apon the peo- of North Carolina, enjoying the affection of party friends, receiving the and con- fidence of ita bitterest political foes, and com- manding in its comparatively isolated location a circulation larger than haa ever been attained by an other North Carolina newspaper, and it Son like dignity, and fairness that the editors of Tae OpseRver, t to the State Capital, hope it will deserve, noon <7 and then surpass, its former circulation the prosperity. It will be their high aim to deserve pub promote the lic confidence by earnest efforts to publie welfare, first and foremost of North olina, next of all the Southern States and, finally, and throngh these of the whole Union, They think that this can only be effected the preyalence of Democratic and the dismisaal of the party from the Places and power which have so abused and under whose | rule the has been outraged and the whole country been impoverished and disgraced.
