U., says: “The people of this and adjoining counties are quiet and orderly in politics. A majority of farmers are unable to run their farms without advances, and huadreds of colored men are out of employment aad can’t find homes. Many of them condemn thrir Radical leadere for deceiving them with fair promises, and dragging the state to ruin and then to starvation. What the result of all thie will be, time only can show.” — Charlotte Observer. Times are not so hard in this section, though, doybiless, many are in trouble. Mortgages made during: last year have matured and now comes the tug of paying them off. Some will not be able tode it, and their property will have te be sold.

The colored people are obliged tn suffer when the whites become teo poor to em- ploy them, and poverty has the beeu ten~ dency in this State ever since the rule of the radical party commenced.

Witmineton N.C. ANNOUNCEMENT. 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 long experience in their profeasion 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 assigns them ability to furnigh = news. paper suited to the needs and adapted to the tastes of the people’of North Carolina. Differ- ing in polities 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 qttestions of pub- lic interest, and apt to give thore opinions plain expression, they deem it the first daty of a newspaper to furnish its readers with the in- formation necessary to the formation of their opinions—to publish all “the newk?’ and their purpose is to make THE OBSERVER 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- le of North Carolina, enjoying the affection of its party friends, receiving the respect and con- fidence of ita bitterest political foes, and com- manding in its comparatively isolated location a circulation larger than has ever been attained by an other North Carolina newspaper, and it is thus, by like dignity, and fairness that the editors of Toe OBSERVER, transfer to the State Capital, hope it wilbdeserve, and soon equal, and then surpass, its former circulation and prosperity. : It will be their high aim to deserve the pub- lic confidence by earnest efforts to promote the publie welfare, first and foremost of North Car- Olina, next-of all the Sovthern Statea and, finally, and throngh 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 from the places and power which they have so greatly abused and under whose baleful rule the Sonth has been outraged and the whole cquntry has pire Compost the past year, and take pleasure in saying that it.is by far the best and cheapest Fertilizer that we know of, We intend to use more largely this season. F. A. ARCHIBALD, E, C. MORRISON, WM. L. SAPP, JACOB BARRINGER, Dr. D. W. FLOW. Crencove, N. C., November 30, 1875. This is to. certify that I have used five tons of the Harris Empire Cumpost this year, and find it equally as good if not better ‘than any commercial Fertilizer I have used or noticed used, even at the cost of sixty dollars per ton, making an increase of about 100 per cent. on stubble lands. I expect to buy more largely next year. F. A. ARCHIBALD. PLEAsant VALLEY, Lancaster Connty, 8. C., November, 1875. This is to certify that I have used Harris’ Empire Compost and am very well with it, as it not = prevents rust, but is as good as any a ee Seeman the cost per ton making it old. WD HAYATT. © GREEXVILLE Cornrty, 8. C., 1876. This is to certify that I used Harris’ Empire Compost last year on my iand for Wheat, and though I did not give it a fair trial; as I left ont one of the inqeetionta, but must wae. Sat where it was my wheat was never ter, and where I did not use it I find that it is very indifferent: I shall use six tons this Spring. I consider the formula invalnable to farmers4= Yours respectfully, OW. F- PENNINGTON Gastor }. ., May, 1876. Messrs. Wilson & Black—Gentlemen: It gives me much pleasure to state that I used the Compost bought of you last Winter, and must say that I am highly pleased with it. I used it on an old broom sedge field that wonld pro- doce nothing, and must say the result is aston- ishing. I askin it an invaluable com and ‘ust the thing needed to bring out our old, worn-out lands. Yvuurs, very lly, Dr. J. ¥. SBMYER. MEcKLENBUS? Co., N. C, 1576. I take pleasure in to my far- mers all over the country I last year, Harris’ Empire Compost, under both corn and cotton, and the result was astonishing to all my neighbors. The cost was only one fourth of what I had ' been paying for cand ial fertilizers. : LENS HOOK.

It is a matter of rejoicing that the Const wy has a last ae 4 obligatory u the | ve o the Tctcemeat to give him this aid. With- aut any definite plan of my own, I earnestly recommend this subject to your maturcat deliberation. I transmit herewity a memorial from the Raleigh asking for the establish- ment of this department, and commend it to your favor, your honorable body, after its next adjournment, will not meet again, unless specially convened. for two years, I recom- mend the immediate establishment of such a board as is contemplated by the Consti- tution, which could at least make a begin- ning in the great work, and cou!d gather up much valuable information which might enable your successors to enlarge and im- ve upon your work. In aid of the rd, the statistical labor should be imme diately undertaken. If the Secretary of State were ordered to furnish the neveasary blanks, and it - made the duty of each rson appointed to list the taxable property Pr the mre to take at the same hy ean each taxt-payer, on oath, the amount, char- acter and vaiue of his productions for the past year, with the ac in cultivation, % most accurate and valuable table of the wealth of the State and the condition of our people could be had every year at a most insignificant cost, And if the products of the whites and blacks were kept separate it might be made of service in stimulating the industry of the blacks and increasing otherwise the value of their citizenship. In this connection I have the pleasure of send- ing herewith a memorial embracing the re- salt ofa conference between Agricultural Socicties, the Patrons of Husbandry and the Trustees of the University, in regard to the importance of protecting the farmers against imposition in the purchase of comercial fertilizers. To do this they ask for a smal! appropriation to aid in the establishment of an “Experiment Station” at Chapel Hill, and the emplosment of 4 practical chemest. With the means already on hand at the University, Iam assured they can accow- plish their object at a very slight cost to the State, and all ctival agriculturatlists agre )} in pronouncing it @ necessity. I ear- nestiy recommend the proposition to your favor. I desire to call your attention to another matter of importance to the welfare of a large portion of our people somewhat simi- lar to the foregoing. It is known that great success has, within the last four years, been achieved in various parts of the world | in the artificial propogation of fish. So| important has this become that the govern- ment of the United States has established a department for the purpose of stocking the inter-State rivers with suitable breeds of| fish, and quite a number of States of the Union have taken in hand the filling of all their streams, The results so far have been satisfactory beyond the most sanguine ex- tations. Iam in receipt of an official etter from the Fish Commissioner of the State of Virginia, inviting our co-operation in the restocking of those rivers which lie partly within both States, notably the Chowan and the Roanoke. These will be restocked with shad, striped bass, and other kinds, at the expense of the United States, if the two States unite in freeing them from obstructions to the passage of fish. The same will be done for our two great West- ern streams, the Yadkin and Catawla, if the authorities of South Carolina can be induced to unite with us in removing ob- structions, But a propagating establishment of our own could be created at a small ex- pense, which would enable us in a few years to fill every stream in the State, great and small, with the best. varieties of fish, thus increasing both the food and the pleas- ure of our people. The fact that within the recollection of living men almost every stream within our borders were once alive with the finny tribe, is accepted by the eee as proof that they can be so lled again. 80 unfailing are the conclu- sions of science in this matter that it is well authenticated that whilst in the natural state subject to all the accidents and dep- rédations of the open rivers, only two per cent. of the eggs are ever hatched into fish, in the protected establishment of art ninety- _— per cent. are matured to the size at which they are deemed sufficient to turn into our rivers, Should you establish a t of Agriculture, Irecommend that the estab lishment of an institution for this purpose be made a part of the duty of whoever shall have the department in charge and that the necessary acts be passed for keeping open fish ways in our streams; and also for the protection of the fish inthe spawning sea- son, Though this may seem a small mat- ter, the experiment in other States has been attended with very considerable and very beneficia) resulta. The Geological Survey which has done ao much towards making known to stran- gers and to our own people the nature and resources of our own State, I recommend shall be connected with the University. By some arrangement to be agreed upon by a committee of your honorable body and the trustees, this could be effected in auch a Profeasor Kerr, the State Geologist, could lecture jn the winter and conduct advanced students in the field in the warm season, pretty to the henefit of the University and ts pupils, J am sorry to see any consider- able portion of our le ind to the continuation of thi. adieneh de survey.

There is t need for one at least in North Carolina. The Constitution of the State, in section 14, artiele 1X, requires the General Assem- bly, as soon as ble, to establish and maintain in connection with the University, a t of Normal Instruction. I re- spectfully submit that is now practicable to make a beginning in carrying out this pro- vision of a iade There cannot possibly he found in this State competent cachet for our public schools. The records of the county examiners show that most of the applicants for the post of impartin knowledge to others, are themselves def. cient in the simplest. elements of | spelling, reading, arithmetic and writing. The Uni- versity is now in successful operation. If the General Assembly should appropriate an amount sufficient to establish one profes- sorship for the purpose of instrocting in the theory and art of teaching. Iam persuaded the best results would follow. A school of a similar character should also be establish- ed for the education of colored teachers, the want of which is more deeply felt by the black race even than the white In ad. dition to the fact that it is our plain duty to make no discrimination in the matter of public education, I cannot too strongly arge upon you the importance of the con- sideration that whatever of education we may be able to give to the children of the State should be imparted under our own auspicies, and with a thorough North Caro- lina spirit.. Many philosophical reasons can be given in support of this proposition. I am conscious of a few things more danger- ous than for a State to suffer the education of an entire class of its citizens to drift into the hands of strangers, most of whom are not attached to our institations, if not pos- itively unfriendly to them. There are iv the State several very respectable institu- tions for the education of black people, and a small endowment to ouc of them would enable it to attash a Normal School suffi- cient to answer the present necds of our black citizens, Their desire for education is an extremely creditable one, and should be gratified as far as our means will permit. In short, I regard it as an unmistakable ilicy to imbue these black people with a ane North Carolina feeling, and make them cease to Jook abroad for the aids to their and civilization and the pro- tection of their rights as they have been taught to do, and learn them to look to their State instead; to convince them that their welfare is indissolubly linked with ours, I transmit herewith the first biennial re- es of the Commissioners of the Weatern nsane Axylum. It contains an interesting account of the location and purtial erection of the institution, which is destined to be another monument to the humanity and liberality of our people. It would seem to be very satisfactory indeed. I think the location fortunately chosen in all respects. the surroundings most excellent, and the state of the work in reasonable forwardneass, For a wonder, the cost so far is considerably below the origina! estimates, and I am as- sured by disinterested parties that the work is thorough aed substantial. I presume you will have no hesitation in making the necd- ful appropriation for the current year. In regard to the present Asylum in this city, I respectfully reccommend the reducing ofthe number of Directors, Fifteen, the present namber, is altogether too large, both for economy and efficiency. Eight or nine would be amply sufficient. I also respect- fully recommend that the Stewards of the several institutions, penal and charitable, be compelled by law to buy all leading articles of euppiy by advertising for propo- sals, instead of the present method of private purchase. It is thought this plan would save money to the Treasury. The habit of buying at private contract makes everything cost more, and breeds a system ef favorit- ism and smal) peculation, injurious to the public interest, The tax-payers are entitled to the advantage of the competition of the whole country. corre ae message I also send a report from the Board of Public Charities. The indefatigable Chairman, Dr. C. T. Mur- phy, has gathered up a considerable amount of information, aa set forth in this and _pre- ceding reports to which I invite your atten- tion. are auch has been the average rosperity and wealth of our le that ne mare rad little knowledge ofthe suffer- ings of extreme poverty and disease, and but little attention has been given to the methods of providing for them. Since the war, this afflicted class of our citizens has largely increased, and humanity demands that our legislation should make all neces- sary provision for its relief. I am assured that many of our prisons are badly kept in regard to health, and many of the counties’ houses for the poor are obnoxious to the severest criticism—not because of inhuman- ity on the partof the county authorities, but becanse sufficient attention is not given to the subject. Most of them would doubt- less do thelr full duty in the premises if overhauled from time to time by the super- vision of thie Board. I recommend that « sslary be paid to the members of this Board, and that the duties of annual and report ypon the prisons and for the poor be made ypon i [i necessary, authorizing Superior Courts to send crim- Gen damn the eouaties. where they to the railroad works, there to be and enrolled by the Warden in i the very considerable erable and we may reasonably believe that 7 ‘ aaa «ahi | Peer <M discussion amiong the members, esting information pertaining to the Industrial, eries; containing a weekly record, not only of country, but also of all New Discoveries and el ag & wi é r, sent terminus of the road to the French Broad river, and then be divided aan the short branch line and the main trank line, according to ges heretofore fiitce. I recommend ri ge roll of the government by commissioners, the affairs of the road shall be administered by the ordi- nary machinery of railroad companies, with at least eight directors, and that you pro- vide means to furnish the iron as. it may be required. Itis expected that before your assembling again the-road will be in opera- tion as far as Asheville, at least, Many inguiries are being made as to the disposition of our public debt. 1 presume it is the intention and desire of our people to provide for its liquidation at: some figure as soon as the necessary taxation can be borne, but-when and on what terms it can be done, you; as the immediate repre- sentatives of the people, must decide. Whilst it is certainly desirable in many re- spects to take this debt up and restore our credit to its ancient standard, I am far from believing that we are subject to self-reproach, or are in any Way obnoxious to the sneers of those who hold claims upon us. In re- gard to much the greater part of those claims, there is not the slightest moral obli- gation resting on the conscience of any hon- est citizen of North Carolina. The story of the iniquities practiced upon us is an ample justification fur our delay. The most that Ican say to you on this weighty matter is to recommend the appointment of a com- mission to negotiate with our creditors and see what terms can be obtained. In conclusion, gentlemen, I commend the wants and wishes of our entire people to your wisdom and patriotism. I think the sunlight is breaking through the darkness. Should our Federal troubles be happily and peaceably adjusted, we might reasonably anticipate a steady Improvement m our condition, With good feeling between the white and black citizens of the State, the prospect of wise legislation and just govern- ment before us, there is no reason why all classes shuuld not gu diligently to work. With energy and prudence there is every reason to hope that a great crop can be pro- duced, and that all the other in@ustries of our people may be so excited that the year 1877 shall be known-in history as the era of our renewed prosperity.

Simple, few but earnest and touching were the exercises, and all turned from the sacred ground feeling that it was bet- ter to go to the house of mourning than to the place of mirth. —__~-—-_ OBITUARY.

We sometimes hope that all is weil with the departed ones :—in his case We are certsin that “He has found the joys of heaven, He ts one of the ange! band. To his head a crown of cold is given, And a harp Is in his hand, He has learned the song they sing Whom Jesus hath set free, And the glorious walls of heaven now ring With his new born melody.” He was not able to give utterance to the thoughts which must have occupied his mind tu the last hours of his earthly life, but words were not needed. Pa- rents can desire no more for their children than that they should live as he lived—Though we must mours that he was so soon called from earth we must re- joice that his memory will ever be dear to all who knew him.

Congress is legislating peaceably.— Commitives of the two Houses are striv- ing to reach @ satisfactory mode of count+ ing the votes for President. ‘There is uo excitement in Washington, and no prob- ability wf any distarbance in that cous munity of officebolders, claim ageuts, cun- wactore, lobbyists, and proleesional jub- bers. Ouly two or three inflammatory” speeches have been made in cither Rana, and they have bern condemved by beth Democrats and Republicuns. While this js the condition of facta, « large force of artillvry bas been concen trated at Washingtou during the past month, and it is known pesicively that other troops are to be ordered there with- in the next few weeks. When rerola- tions of inquiry are offered iu the House to ascertain the reasow for the gousual presence of part of the army aud for these wilitary preparations iu the midst of quiet, Mr. GARFIELD or some other agent of GRANT joupe to bie feet with an ob- jection, aud as two thirds thew becouse wecersury to carry the resolution, it is laid over. Now, it is useless to disguise the mean- ing @f theee various movements, which have been-chicfly directed by Dux Cam. gxon. They form a part of the conapi- racy to wake Haves President, by force sattaining fraud. ‘I'be pacific aesuranees aud the promises of agreement by thoee who are acting ander the orders of Cha » dler, Merton, Sherman, and their couf-d- crates, are ouly devices cuutrived to with- draw atteution from the plot, and to evable the conspirators te perfeet their plaon, while the deecived people are trust- fully looking forward to an honorable solution vf the present problems.

The question of waking wine from the North Carolina grape is now uo longer a uestion. While a: the Centennial, Mr Sam’! Mickey, of Salem, the largest and most successiul grape grower iu this ecc- tien ef the State, secured the method adopted by the Oulifornia wiue makers, and when he returned home be procured agqeantity of the Scupperuong grapes and made some wine sceording to their method, without using a particle of sugar, or other ingredients, ad we have tasted thie wine, and found it pleasant tasted, and entirely without the vinegar taste asaally accompanying oar wines where no sugar is ured. By thie method a great improvement can be made on the North Carolina wines, and they can be prought up to as high standard as any made iu the United States. - Win. Sens tinel, —_ Up Sarr Riven —The origin of the expression “Up Salt River,” as applied to « defeated political party, was as fol- lows: Davy Crockett, the famous Keu- tacky Congreseman, while a Whig can- didate, was challenged by his Demecratic opponent to meet bim on the stump in joint diseussion. Crockett accepted, and the day and pluce were fired; bat Crockett did uot appear, aud the people, thinking him afraid wo do #0, rallied for his opponent and cleeted bim.

Crockett war too good « hunter w starve in the wilder ness ; bat he was totally aauble to reach the appointed place in time, aud gave it aud with it his chance of " ence the phrase, “Up Salt River” — meaning that party is boprlessly deteated.

Sheep and other farm stock may live throagh the Winter witbout‘artifieigl shelter or more foud than can be obtained on the range in these favored localities, but they would certainly do better with added comforts every Winter, and occasionally heavy losses might be avoided by making the necessary provision to protect aud feed them when severe storms prevail.— New York Weckly Sun.

Asthe season is Approaching when bawks are most destructive to young poultry, a method of catching and killing these marauders will be in oider. It is a well known fact that a hawk will alwaye light ov some conspicucus place close to the poultry yard, from which to swoop dowu ou bis victims. Taking advantage of this, erect a pole with a flat suiface a! the top just large enough to hold a strong steel trap. Fasten this trap by a chaiv to @ staple in the pole, and await results. No bait will be needed, for the Lawk will be quite certain to light on the trap and be caught. A gentleman who has tried this method haa secceeded in killing all the hawks in his neighborbeed, and can now raise poultry without loss exerpt by accident.— From the Culifornia Horticul- turist. elie Horses.—F vem our observations we expect to vee much influenza, sporadic at least, if uot epizootic, the coming winter. To avoid this weakening disease, thorough ventilation should be given in the etables, avd too great warmth avoided ; the fuod should be of the best character, the bow- els should be kept somewhat relaxed by bran mashes and liuseed meal, and give au occasional tonic, such as balf au ounce of gentian root, aud one dram of sulphate of copper. With such care, thia disease driving should aot be left standing expos. ed to storms. ~~ Poultry.— To keep poor fowls, now that the heavier pare~bred kinds are so cheap and easily procured, will not pay. A prominent poultry dealer trom Ohio, who exhibited largely at the Centennial, petated to ue that the income of .farmece from poultry in bis locality, had doubled, since he had been in busioess, from she use of better kinds of poulyy. ‘In our own etperience we have surpassed even this increase of profit. —_— Shelter —It is absctately necessary that all animals should be well sheltered from cold aud nan The reason why pigs or other animals domotfatien so readi- ly in cold weather as in the Warmer months is, that the food is largely sed in keep- ing ap the vital heat, which is now given off in etcess, and lost, If this lose is pre- veated, animals will fatten now as readi-+ ly ae at any other time.

I remember dearly that I pulled it off and laid it on the counter while I tried on those fur rid- ing gloves. No one but this girl has wait- ed on me, and no other has taken it, There stands the thief!” The speaker, a fashionably dressed, stylish young lady, was greatly excited ; she stood the centre of a gaping crowd at one of the counters in the large estab- lishment of Burt & Bond, while her finger pointed with stern accusation at one of the shop girls, with face pale as death, who clung in a sort of dumb stupor to the eounter for support. The speaker had missed a valuable diamond ring from her finger, the counters and floor had been carefully searched without leading to its discovery, and the suspicion which the loser had entertained from the moment of first missing the ring was no longer con- cealed. “There stands the thief! Iam as posi- tive of it as I live,” she continued, stern- ly. “De not say that. Oh, please do not!” the accused, after several choking efforts, managed to gasp out. “I have not taken your ring. I did not even see it. Search me, if you think I am deceiving you.” “Oh, no doubt you have safely concealed it long before this. Such hardened wreteh- es‘as you understand such things,” sneer- ingly remarked the other. “Guy,” she added, turning to the gentleman: accom- her, “call an officer at once, please, I ghall deliver this creature over to jus- ” Sizes oh, have mercy!” moaned the aceused, piteously. “It will kill my poor old mother ; and oh, I am innocent.” The handsome face of the young man flushed a deép red, as, laying his hand with a restraining gesture upon the lady’s arm, he pleaded: “I beg of you. think thisover again, Anna. That poor girl . don’t look like a thief or criminal. Her face and actions are too innocent and hon- est for that, and I feel certain she has not committed the theft.” “Tush, Guy! you are led captive by her pretty face, and your silly disposition to believe all the world as honest as your- self,” she replied, impatiently, and with a sting of something like jealousy, in her words aswell. ‘Besides, you seem to forget, Guy, that it is the diamond ring that you gave me.” “T will purchase you a handsomer one to replace it. Come, we will go for it at oneé, and forget all about this affair.” She broke away angrily from his re- straining grasp. ‘Guy, you are blind. I kasiow this girl deliberately stole the ring, and I shall remain here until she is in custody. Will not some one call ‘an offi- cers” In-a few moments a police officer ap- péated, who, after listening to the charge made against the poor girl by the young lady; said, looking upon the deathly pale face of the accused (it must have been a timid trusting, honest face, and very love- ly before the terror of this charge changed it, andsif strangely moved the officer, for he had @ daughter just about her age also serving in a store, and he thought how it w kill him if some day she was charg- ed with a crime like this :) “Of course, iniss, if you charge her with the theft and demand her arrest, I must take her with me; but a jail is an awful place for such a tender, innocent looking thing to be locked up in. Maybe some one here would like to accompany us to a justice and go bail for her appearance. It would be an act of mercy to the poor thing.” He looked straight at the members of the firm, but they saw, if he did not, the sterm of passionate anger his words oc- casioned in the breast of the accusing lady. One of them drew him aside to whisper, “Wedare not assist the girl. This body who miakes the charge is the daughter of the wealthy and influential Mr. Reynolds, and we cannot afford to do anything that would alienate her patronage from us. The officer’s lip curled in scorn, as, turning to the accused girl, he said, grasp- ing her hand tenderly, “Come with, me, poorthing; there is no help for it. Keep up like a brave little woman, now.” It probably was his touch that aroused the gitl from her stupor. Casting one last bewildered stare upon the faces about her, she seemed to realize the hopelessness of her position, and, moaning out, “‘My poor old mother ! my poor mother,” she dropped to the floor unconscious. At this juncture the gentleman who was ate accusing young lady turned again , and, laying his hand gently upon her shoulder, said :— “Anna, I plead with you for the girl’s mother’s sake, if not for her own, relin- quish this purpose of yours, and forget all about the fatal ring.” “Guy Halford,” she exclaimed, throwing off his tough, her face livid with anger, ——- —— “your interest in this eresture is very un- reasonable, to say the least, Your peti- Sea ee make me more not to T the mene es Te very flushed accused carried out by ee fre: ua ge a man, placed in a cab, and driven off to a nolds, having completed her purchases, called upon him to escort her to her car- driven to the court.’ The magistrate in attendance, learning that she was Miss Reynolds, daughter of the wealthy mer- long enough to grant her, in the most ob- sequious manner, a private interview. She reiterated her charge of theft against the shop girl, and he, after listening at- tentively, begged to know her wishes in the matter, promising te earry them out literally. “I wish the creature prosecuted, and punished wilth all the rigor of the law and without any consideration of mercy,” she said, bitterly, with a meaning look at Guy Halford. “It shall be done,” the magistrate said. “You need not be detained here; I shall hold.ber for trial under heavy bonds, which of course she cannot furnish, and she will therefore be locked up.” “T am glad of that—a prison cell is her proper sphere,” she added, as she and Guy returned to her carriage. He handed her in and was turning away, when she eried to him, in surprise, “Why, Guy, of course you mean to ride back with me ?” “Thank you, Miss Reynolds!” he said, politely but coldly, “I have business that will detain me.” She fell back into the seat with a gasp of dismay. What could it all mean? Why this calling her Miss Reynolds, when he knew how fond she was of “Anna” from his lips? Why this sudden inde- pendence, when she had domineer over him so long and in so many ways, always finding Het WiPhis faw? Was there rea- son to fear that she was losing her power over him; that her severe treatment of the shop girl was allenating any of his affection from her? The thought brought a burst of wild‘tears and of terror with it. She, of all persons, alone knew of the months ofanxious planning and maneuv- ring it had cost her, the admired and en- vied heiress, to catch, honest Guy Halford, for whom she had spurned a score of other offers that the world would have called more brilliant, and now, was she to lose him merely through her spite at the shop girl? Distracted at the mere mention of it, she reached to call the driver and in- struct him to drive her back to the police court that she might withdraw the charge of theft against the girl, and in the hope of meeting Guy on the way. But no, on second thought she felt she could not do this, she could not humiliate herself so, even were it doing an act of justice to an- other, “Guy will call as usual this evening,” she murmured to herself; “‘he is too great- ly under my control to remain away,” and with this belief she dismissed her fears. And while she rode homeward, and for long hours after, the accused girl sat cow- ering and shivering on a seat in the police court, surrounded by filthy, blasphemous victims of crime, and stared a® and cruelly joked about by the curious and vicious. The magistrate called up and passed one case after another until the list was exhausted ; he lounged and gosaiped, drank and smoked, eracked jokes and ut- ¢ered tremendous oaths with every bum- mer, politician, and criminal that happen- ed near, and, at last, when it was impos- sible to avoid it longer, he took notice of the shrinking, weeping girl. It was not necessary, he said, to open any inquiry into the charge against her. He was sorry that he could not pass sen- tence on her instead merely of binding her over to appear, as he was satistied she de- served the severest rigors of the law. He would hold her over in 82000 of bonds, and as, of course, she could not furnish such bonds, he would order her locked up at once, Mingled with the hopeless cry of the poor girl on hearing this, came a firm voice from an obscure cornér of the room, where, during all these hours, a man sat almost moveless with a newspaper held before his face. “T will qualify as bondsman in $2000, or ten times that amount, if required.” The accused girl, the magistrate, and other listeners in the court-room turned their gaze in amazement towards the corn- er. Guy Halford stepped forth. “Mr. Halford,” the magistrate exclaim- ed, recognizing him, certainly you do not wish to interfere in this creatures behalf! She undoubtedly is a hardened thief and criminal.” “Your duties, sir, are not to pass a final judgment,” uttered the other, in a tone that convinced.the magistrate he waa not to be trifled with. “Any man, yourself in- cluded, who dares, from this moment, to 4 honesty and worthiness, until it has been proven in a court of justice, will do it at his peril.” The magistrate, realizing that, in his ardor to secure Miss Reynolds’ approba- tion, he had overstepped the bounds of cast an aspersion upon this poor girl’s| j/°t® A 1 abi als ws Siwy ve Pe fe missing ring would be found, ised to proceed to Bs ( 1S ed + & es express her thanks, except by such gleams of worship out of hereyes as to set his pulse heating in a way it had never done before under a woman’s glances, he thought this shop girl, Allie Linton, very lovely and very innocent. The carriage stopped before a very hum- ble tenement, and he supported her tot- tering steps into it. A kind-faced old lady met them with a cry of alarm upon her lips, but he explained nothing until he saw the girl comfortably resting in a sparsely-furnished but remarkably neat and eleanly room. Then, quietly draw- ing the old lady into another apartment, he told her all that had happened to her daughter; but in such a cheerful and hopeful manner, that when he left her, under a promise to return again that even- that the innocence of her dauthter would soon be established. On leaving this humble home, Guy Hal- ford, at once proceeded to Burt & Bond’s, and, by offering a handsome reward to any one who would find the missing ring, had a thorough search made. It was unayail- ing and he tarned away sick at heart. People who knew the circumstances scoffed at his faith in the accused girl’s innocence. Could he be mistaken in that face 1 Could she have taken the ring, and was all her suffering since only a piece of clever act- ing? He went back to her humble home to look again into that strangely winning face, and ask himself, had he been deceiv- ed? She was lying on a lounge like a pale lily, wounded and broken from its stem, and, half springing up with excited ex- pitifully yearning look into his face, and reading the disappointment there, with a single hopeless moan, sie hid her face, and thereafter lay like one deprived of life. Guy perceived, the moment he looked upon her, that a fever was raging in her veins, and, hastening away, secured the services of a noted physician, and sent him to her, pleading with him very touch- ingly to save her, if possible, from a sin- gle additional pang. He could not return himself, he was not calm enough; his blood was on fire, he was choking, and he felt as if his brain would burst its limits. He walked the streets, trying to think of some way to prove the accused girl innocent, for he knew she was innocent; he had not a doubt in his heart about her. In this state of fearful misery, he had Reynolds, the accuser, and demand of her lookiug up from his reverie, he found him- self again before Burt & Bond’s establish- ment. He felt an irresistable inclination to again enter, and he did. One of the proprietors met him, and said :— “Weare sorry, Meg@ilalford, but we shall have to refuse to be further annoyed in the matter of the missing ring.” “Show me the bex of fur riding-gloves Miss Reynolds made her purchase from !” he demanded, sternly. “Why, Mr. Halford, it is useless to look among them again. We have tambled every glove out of the box scveral times already in onr search. “Show them to me in an instant !” thun- dered Guy, in a tone that occasioned the proprietor to spring behind the connter for safety. He, nevertheless, produced the box of gloves. Guy turned them over mechanically, pressing them one by one closely between his hands, while the proprietor leoked on. Suddenly he seemed to discover that in the finger of one them was some foreign ob- ject. His face grew radiant with a wild hope, but his hands trembled so in his ex- citement that he could scarce extricate the object from the place in which it had been held fast. At last he secured it; he pulled it out to view; it waa the veritable dia- mond ring Anna Reynolds had lost. Was it strange that Guy Halford greeted its recovery with a wild shout of joy? The mystery of the missing ring was clear to all now. Anna Reynolds had not removed it from her finger, as she imag- ined, in trying on the glove. In removing this glove from her hand, the. ring had come off and remained wedged in the glove finger. Guy almost flew over the ground in his excited strides until he reached Allie Lin- ton’s home. Alas! the evidence of her in- The aight Fiat \oretstonecest girl, ing, she was almost happy in the belief pectation when he entered, she east one almost made up his mind to go to Anna! to withdraw the charge of theft, when, | a ested back against the cushions, unable to | — nee she y- “Creche expect justice to be done, it were ‘walk on one’s and knees from 8 place to her intensity of feeling. “Guy, you are insulting.” “Perhaps Iam; It comes fiom my anti- quated notions of honor and tness. Miss twelve hours believ- ed I loved you so well that ng you might do could alienate love, I j frommy months of in submitting patiently to your y whims, your Late aber: and ddnineering, thinking they were excrescendées satel on a kind and noble heart; tho in my creed the utniost one may hope to attain in this world is the graceef consid- eration for others’ feelings. This day's events have unvailed your innetecharacter to me in such repulsive form as t¢éshake my love to its foundations; and, nov, coming as I do from the bedside of the victim of your false accusations, and remembering w she islying there in the will ravings of a fever brought on by your crudty, from which she may never arise, I ii your friendship, but with the wishthat you may never require the charity yeu have withhéld from another.” He turned sternly on his heel and strode out of the room into the street, and with him fled all for which Anna Reynolils had stvivenand ence gained—the hope and «nbition Of her life. She essayed t¢ call him back, that she might sue for his for- giveness; but the words stuck in her throat, and, hearing his proud tread on the pavement outside, she swooned and fell to the floor. Years have passed since that day, and Anna Reynolds, now the discontented, shrewish wife of @ miserable husband, often meets in society gatherings the love- and admired wife of Gay Halford, once Linton, the shop girl. Anna’s hbus- | band has reason to look forward to such ' occasions with dread, for it is an era of hysterics in his househeld, and he has 4 keen remembrance of the terrible abuse that then falls upon his innocent head. POLITICAL. PEACE OR WAR. They who oppose the electoral ‘bifi, be , they Democrats or Republicans, will ‘not | be allowed to ignore plain facts. They must accept the bill, or suggest -ome bet- | ter plan of counting the votes. What can they suggest? The plan by the Joint Committee, says the Charleston News and Courier, settles absolutely and speedily the questions in dispute, without any re- | sort to force or arbitrary authority. If | | | this be rejected, the two Houses of Con- gress are sure to disagres, for they will , have no common ground to stand on. The | House, to a dead certainty, will withdraw | and eldect TILDEN; the Senate will de- clare the election of Hayes, President GRaNnT will interpose in favor of Hares. What then? Either a docile submission to the installation of Havzs by the troops, under the command of Grant and Suen- MAN, or resistance by arms and civil war. There is no escaping this! The choice is, between the bill and usurpation or bloody strife. It cannot be doubted that the country will insist on having the bill. The opponents of the Joint Committee have no time to lose ; the doors of the ark will soon be closed. Ex-President WALK- er, of Virginia, shrewdly says that, if all the telegraph wires could be cut for two or three days, so that there should be no news from home, the bill would not pass. But the wires are not cut, nor will they be !— Raleigh Observer. ——. - ~~ - FLORIDA. More Testimony About the Radical Conspir- acy. Wasiuincton, D. C., Jan. 25.

The debate on the Electoral Compromise bill engaged the House to-day to the ex- clusion ofall other subjects. The galleries were crowded. An unusual degree of in- terest was manifested in the proceedings. Specches in support of the bill were made by McCrary, Hunten and. Goode of Vir- ginia. Hewittand Wood of Massachu- setts, Hale and Monroe spoke against it. The most notable of the speeches that ‘of Hoar.

NEW YORK. Meeting of Northern Bondholders—Ap- pointment of a Committec— Express Sym- pathy for the South. New York, Jan. 25.—Ata meeting of bankers, merchants and others interested in the settlement of the debt question of the Southern States was had to-day in the Clearing House, Wm. Cullen Bryant president. Frederick Taylor spoke of the deplorable condition of things in the South. Col. Stebbins then offered resolu- tions which were adopted, deploring the State of affairs in the Southern States and symapathizing with the people of said States in their unhappy condition. Re- cognizing the obstacles in the way of an honorable discharge of their legal obliga- tions, stating that some method of com- promise and re-adfustment was absolute- ly necessary, recommending the interven- tion of a Committee of disinterested arbiters between the States and their bondholders as offering a fair and honor- able method alike te debtor and creditor and naming as the committee, Messrs. George 8. Coe, J. L. Vermillye, B. B. Sherman, B. B. Comegys and Enoch Pratt, and inviting defaulting States to confer with this committee upon the matter.— These gentlemen accepted the trust, and undertook the werk given them. They will report the progress at a future meet- ing. Addresses commendatory of this project were made by George Opdyke, John A. Stewart, Rev. Dr. Osgood, F. 8. Winston and others. a Smith, the Woman Murderer, in the Hands of the Sheriff. We learn from the Greenville News that the young man Lawrence Smith who bru- tally murdered a young lady who refused to marry him at Williamson, 8. C., (an account of which tragic event was pub- lished yesterday) and who was supposed to have fled in the direction of this city, has given himself up to the authorities at Greenville. He professes to be in the very depths of despair, and says that he has no recollection of committing the deed, and would willingly have given his own life to save hers. The News thinks that he is, or was at the time, demented, and that he deserves pity rather than cen- sure. He went immediately to his home after the murder was committed, and was brought to Greenville by his uncle. It isa remarkable affair.—Oharlotte Obser- ver. —————~a-__—__ To Be Hanxoep.—Allen Carter, tried and convicted at the last term of our Sn- perior Court for the murder of Mr. Lilly in Stanly county, and whose case went up to the Supreme Court, is to be re-sen- tenced executed, the latter tribunal having the decision of the Supe- rior Court in the first instance. Carter is now confined in our county jail.—Spirit of asked if there was anything: the. matter | g with it. Nevels (which is understeed to be the second of the Democratic principal) he withdrew his hand from) his bosom, disclosing a bloody sleeve, and exhibited arm, He was then asked if the reported duel really took place, when, Nevels ne- | plied that it@ertainly did; that they met on the ground near Fair Bluff, at 10 0’- clock on Friday morning; that they ex- changed four shots, he (Nevels) receiving one wound in the pistol arm and his, an- tagonist three seperate wounds, one on each side of the chest (high up) and one in the left arm. He said the agreement was that they were to fight until one or the other party should cry “enough,” but that when his competitor received his last shot he dropped and could not stand up further to “face the music.” . Neyels sta- ted that the “d——d@ Radical” had chal- lenged him to fight two or three times be- fore, but he had told him that he didn’t want to shoot him. ~ The seconds were armed with double- barrelled shot-guns, and their appearance suggested the idea that they were a party |- returning from a hunting expedition.— They were very calm and collected, as was the principal, exhibiting no evidence of undue excitement, and when the latter left the train at Marion he walked off very deliberately, with his hand in his bosom, and his appearance excited no remark or attention. In fact, our informant states that, for a duelling party, returning fresh from the field, both principal and seconds exhibited remarkable coolness. The Republican principal, Moody, with his party, remained behind, the impres- sion being that he was too badly wounded to be removed to his home, The pistol used by Nevels, which was exhibited to our informant, was one of the Smith & Wessons silver-mounted patent, the distance between combatants being fifteen paces. This affair throws the Bennett-May fiasco entirely in’ the shade, and shews that Southern chivalry, “without regard to race, color or previous condition,” is not to be “sneezed at.” el A SABBATH-KEEPING RAILROAD. We congratulate the Stockholders and all other interested in the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia Railroad Company upon the intelligent action of the Company pany in regard to the observance of the Sabbath-keeping is an excellent basis for the cultivation of all moral and personal qualities that make men trustworthy and successful.

To the Honorable the General Assembly of the State of North Carotina: A meeting of the holdersof the bonds of the State of North Carolina was held in the city of New York, on De- cember 27th, 1876. Its object was to devise such a scheme or measure for funding the debt as would be acceptable tothe people of that State. A plan was agreed upon, and 2 committee appointed to present it to the General Assembly during the present session. As such committee, and jn pursuance of the res- olutions under which they act, the un- dersigned herewith present the case as briefly as the cireumstances admit. Be- fore proceeding, however, it is well to state that the speakers at this meeting, without a single exception, expressed the kindest interest in, and sympathy for, the State and its people. They also manifested a commendable willingness to concede to the State all that is reas- onable; and to aid the General Assem- bly and State officials in re-organizing its fmances and placing them upon a solid basis. The bonds represented at this meet- ing were chiefly those which the State has re as valid. None but the holders of these bonds were allowed to vote, and the committee represent no other. In transactions with a commonwealth, it is advisable, in the outset, to define, clearly, the relations of the parties thereto. This is but a plain business : which individuals and cor- alike recognize. To carry out this principle in the matter at issue, bonds were sold and re-sold by brokers. Boua fide holders have not parted with their bonds, for the reason that they believed the State would, ultimately. redeem its promises. be worth $10,000,000, Its bonded debt is placed at only six per cent. of this sum, or $600,000. Its bonds (gold) pay eight per cent. per annum, and should sell freely at a premium of not less than ten per cent. Instead of this they are selling at a discount of from twenty to twenty-five per cent. No doubt this is, in part, due to the character of the men who, for years past, have contr: rll- ed the city government; but the chief reason is to be found in the uncertainty in the public mind regarding the debt of the State. In contrast with Wil- mington, take the city @f Richmond, Virginia. With a population estimated at 65,000, it has to pay about one-eighth of the t>xes for all State purposes, its pro rata being nearly $360,000 per an- num. The municipal and county ex” penses amount to at least as much more; and in addition, it has to pay interest at an average rate of seven per cent, on a bonded debt of 84,500, 000. Yet, in spite of all these burdens, its eight per cent. currency bonds are sought after at a premium of fourteen per cent. Settle the debt of the State of North Carolina and the bonds of Wilmington, and other cities within its borders, would speedily advance to a level with those of Rich- mond. * Those who invested in the ante-war bonds, and subsequent issues, did so in the belief that the State would never invalidate its promises by enacting laws in any wise repudiating its justly con- tracted debt, or that would impair the public credit. The traditions of the State, as well as its statute law, justified this confidence on the part of its credit- ors. Section 41, chapter 82, of the laws of 1848-49, declares, ‘That as security for the redemption of said certificates of debt, the public faith of the State of North Carolina is hereby pledged to the holders thereof.” This wise provision was confirmed by the adoption of the Constitution of 1868, under which the State was re-admitted into the Union, Article I, section 6, of this instrument reads. as follows: ‘To maintain the honor and good faith of the State untar- nished, the public debt, contracted be- fore and since the rebellion, shall be re- North Carolina Railroad Company, holders of which look to that corpora- tion for payment, the de ‘ qt tl i Not including the bonds issued to the | fe the bt on October | a was as follows : } ) To settle this indebtedness, the fund- ing scheme of 1874-'75 provided for the issue of new bonds having thirty years to run, and bearing different rates of interest, the average being less than four and one-half per cent. per annuin, This rate of interest was, undoubtedly, objectionable to many creditors of the State; but the failure of its proposition resulted almost wholly from the insu ffi- ciency of the compromise offered. Ig- noring the accrued interest, the State proposed to fund the debt on the basis following: re $5,578,900 ; at 40 pr ct. $2,231,560 ey | 8,67, 145s at 25 pr et. 2.206786 TOTAL, 914,445,065 $4,448,346 This is lesé than thirty and eight- tenths per cent. of the principal only. between the State of North Carolina and its creditors, would be, compara- y, an easy were the committee State, and who claim that it is able to pay in full. On the other hand, it is well-known to the committee that the people of the State, and many of their representatives, plead extreme poverty as the reason for long delay in pro- viding an honorable and equitable ad- justment of the State’s indebtedness. Between interests and views so diverse, the committee, themselves interested parties, fully realize the difficulties of their task. They, therefore, bespeak the candid consideration of their views, both by the General Assembly and the holders of the bonds of the State of North Carolina. It is not denied by the authorities of the State, that nearly all of the recog- nized debt was contracted to aid, direct- ly or indirectly, in promoting internal improvements. The larger part of this indebtedness is represented by bonds issued more than twenty years ago, to- gether with the issues under the Fund- jects were, first, to, fund the interest clusive of the years named; and, second, to retire a portion of the ante-war bonds that had then matured. When the original bonds were placed on the market, the credit of the State was rated very high. Its bonds, at one time, a considerable pre- maium, and regarded as a safe in- vestment by managers of trust funds, as well as by some of the wisest private capitalists. Many savings institutions in the city of New York, and elsewhere in the Northern States, then became purchasers of these bonds and still hold them. It is also known to gentlemen of this committee, that many individ- uals who invested in them the savings of years, have been reduced to the most straightened circumstances, some of them almost to beggary, by the failure of the State to pay the coupons as they came due, and to make some adequate provision for the settlement of the prin- cipal. The coramittee are in a position to state, that a large percentage of these bonds is still in the hands of the original purchasers or holders. Having great faith in the future of the “old North State,”’ many holders of the ante-war and funding bonds, also invested in the several issues made since the war. Without their assistance, the State never could have established its fine xailmay which has aided so largely in developing its resources, and which cannot fail, under intelligent su- fresh capital could be obtained upon feasonable terms, to complete old and improvements, both "Sei, corporate om garded as inviolable, and never to be questioned, &o!’ Andthat these might yall. ppropr islation and by adequate taxation, vide for the prompt and regular payment of the interest on the public debt, and after the year 1880, it shall lav a specific annual tax Gpon the real and personal property of the State, aud the sum thus realized shall be set apart as a sinking fund, to be devoted to the payment of the public debt.”’ There can be no doubt that the wise legislation of the State, and the honora- ble action of its officials before the war, did much to establish its credit and enable it to borrow at a lower rate of interest than was offered and paid by other States: The same may be said of the constitutional provision of 1868, which the bondholders regarded as only the authoritative expression of the estab- lished practice of the State. The holders of the recognized bonds, ao net, “however, base their claims i pro- to protect their rights and property. It procured their money under laws of its own making, and upon the representa- tion of its chosen officials. It also holds for its own protection, bonds and stocks of the corporations in whose interest its credit was given, the amount being, nominally, about equal in value to its indebtedness. At the time it accepted these securities, it, doubtless, believed them good. If, afterward, it found they were not, then it had the power amply to protect itself. If it failed or neglected tu do so, should it or its cred- itors bear the, consequences? But even if it held no security whatever, the State has derived benefit from the in- vestment of the capital of its creditors, incaleulably greater than the whole amouut of the acknowledged debt. Upon these clear and explicit premises, the bondholders base their claim that the State is bound, both legally and morally, to maintain the inviolability of its pledges to those who have trusted it. This, they hold, is due them, and, also, the people of the State, the full and rapid development of its resources being retarded wholly by reason of the dis- credit which so long has vitiated the character of its bonds. In view, however, of the prevailing financial depression, and general shrinkage in values, it is claimed that the State can not now, nor for a long period to come, pay all its indebtedness. Recognizing this fact, the bondholders very generally signify their readiness to accept a compromise which shall be fair and Nonvreble the State to tender them. In this Fete rawdly necessary to suggest that the funding under the law passed by the General Assembly in the session of 18745, was not such as the bondhold- ers had reason to anticipate, nor such as they could accept. That this is true is evidenced by the fact, published by State Treasurvr Jenkins in his last biennial report, that only $506,400 of the entire debt was offered for adjustment. Possibly, this propo- sition of the Btate was based upon the extremely low prices at which its bonds appeared to be selling in New York, a single bond. It is safe to say that the dealings in the bonds of the State have | not, for several years past, averaged $50,000 per month, aud that the same wholly upon legal grounds.

Compare | with other Se ithern St ites, a large measure of prosperity has heen enjoyed since the war, by tle veople of North Carolina. Its income for the year 1870, probably am int «l to over $90,- 000,000, of which were taken from the soil at least $70,090,900. A glance at the returns of the pro lists o° tht year, is full of instruction. Provects of Norta CaRrovina, FOR gether, the per cent ia only twent <i it offered its the State of North Carolina, creditors about thirteen cents on dollar. These figures explain themselves, and clearly indicate the cause of the failure of the present funding scheme. The stim offered by the State is, in propor- tion to the debt, so small, that a ma- jority of the bond-holders have preferred risking the loss of the whole, rather than aecede to this plan of settlement. At the same time, as stated by the com- mittee in the outset, the bond-holders are generously inclined, and ready te close with the State officials upon the basis of a fair and equitable proposition. It is not to their interest to ask more than the State is able to pay, and they will accept such a compromise as it should be willing to concede, Hence, at the meeting previously referred to, resolutions were adopted setting forth the basis of such @ settlenient as would be acceptable to the bond-holders, | Pe -thent nb these -resplateoms—pru- — vided that in any compromise between the State and its creditors, the bonds to be issued in settlement of the present debt, should pay interest at the rate of six per cent. per annum, the coupous being made payable in January and July, at New York and Raleigh, and to be receivable for taxes and all State dues. The next resolution states that a just and reasonable compromise, one that would be to the advantage of the State and acceptable to the bond-holders, would be fifty per cent. of the principal and interest of the acknowledged debt. In the opinion of the committee, this proposition is as fair as the State has any reason to expect, or should ex- act from its creditors. Funded upon this basia, the debt would, nominally, amount to $10,704,691 50. It is probable, however,“ that even more than the excess over $10,000,000 would acerue to the State, because of the loss or destruction of an equivalent amount of the bonds heretofore issued. The committee, therefore, deem it perfectly safe to say that the recognized debt, funded as proposed, would not exceed $10,000,000, Is the State able to pay the interest on this sum, and provide a sink- ing fund sufficient to cancel the ptincip- al within a period of thirty years? This question, the committee will endeavor to answer by a careful analysis of the taxable value of the property and re- ¥ aa State who have already been called upon to contripute many millions of dollars toward their construction; and, sevond, to the creditors of the State, their mon- ey having gone to enrich these corpora- tions. The committee, therefore, would respectfully suggest, that where no charter or other legal obstacles are in the way, the railroads be assessed in the same manner, and pay the same rate of tax, as the other real and personal prop- erty of the State. In this connection, the committee deem it advisable to referto the bonds and stocks of railroad and other corpora- tions, now held by the State, as security for the assistance rendered them, These securities have been earning nothing, and, for a long time to come, are not likely to bring anything into the treasury vue Year 1870. as rek CENSOS Rr- TURNS. , Ireh Potatoes, 738, 803 ee Sweet Potatoes. 3.071, 840 Tons Hay, 83,540 Bales Cotton, 144,935 Lbs.

A valuation of the farming utensils and machinery, for instance, at 86,993,147 would be clearly inadequate, yet this would place the live stock, embracing 2,213,259 head of all kinds, at the insignificant sum of $15,000,000, or $6.80 per head. But, conceding the correctness of the above values, it is clear that the rate of taxa- tion, in past years, has been out of all proportion to even this low appraise- ment of the property of the State. The census of 1860 placed the taxable value of the real and personal property of the State at $292,297,602, and the true value at not less than $360,000,000.

The inerease in twelve months was 542,476 head, of all kinds. To keep the aggre- gate value as nearly a8 possible to that of the previous year, it became necessa- ry to reduce the prices. Hence the horses were returned as worth only 52.30 per head; mules, $60.85: jacks, $50.30; jennets, $17.42; goats, 88 cents; milch cows, working oxen and other cattle, $6.74; hogs, $1.03; sheep, 96 cents. the land or the live stock. Taking the latter at the prices upon which taxes are levied in Virginia, the aggregate would be $33,757,865, or $17,074,769 in excess of the valuation in North Carolina. To guard against misunderstanding on this point, it is well to give, in detail, in parallel columns, the prices both in Virginia and North Carolina: Va.

A gareful examination of the reports of the State Auditor. and other sources of information, justify the committee in m sking the appraisement following : Improved farms, 5,500,000 acres, at $10 per acre, Other lands, including tim- ber and turpentine dis- triets, 20,509,000 acres at $2.50 per acre.

Funded as prop sed by the com- mittee, the debt would represent only four per cent. on a valuation of $259,- 000,000, or less than seven percent. on the State Auditor's valuatioa of $152.- 540,023. It will hardly be, denied that a conservative appraisement for pur- poses of taxation would be $160,009, 000- A tax on this sum of seven and one-half mills, or seventy-five cents on one hun- dred dollars would yield $1,200,000, which is ample to pay the interest at six per cent. on a debt of $10,099,009, and leave for educational and State pur- poses, $609,000. Justly distributed, this tax could not possibly oppress the poorest person in the State, yet would suffice to re-establish its credit and re- store its wonfed prosperity. To plead in- ability to meet so reasonable a demand, clearly indicate unwillingness on would the part of the State to deal fairly with its creditors. The rate of taxation, .for State pur- poses, during the past fiscal year amouuted wo less :h sn thirty-eight cents on $100 of the appraisement of 1875. Taken together, the municipal, county and State taxes aggregated about one | and one-fifth per cent. On a taxable valuation of $220,000,000 the rate was about eighty-five cents, and for State uses but a trifle over twenty-five cents on $100. This valuation may appear too high, but impartial-and well-informed '| statisicians regard it asonly about seven- percent. he true value.

There are, at pres- ent, about 5,500,000 acres of land under cultivation in North Carolina, while in Virginia the acreage does not reach 3,500,000.

State is capable of doing in that direction. Its mountains and valleys abound in iron, coal, copper, lead, zinc, mica, silver and gold. To develop these resources, and place North Carolina in the front rank of the States of the Union, it is necessary that its finances shall be readjusted and reduced to a system commensurate in scope to the needs of the State. Speaking of the public debt and in support of a measure looking to a par- tial adjustment of it, some six years ago, the Hon, J. W. Graham truthfully ‘and eloquently summed up the case in the manner following: ‘‘We often hear aoe now, ae repudiate the whole concern?” Under constitu- tion of the United Sephesi-wr: ire bound to Virginia. As stated above, the taxes of ‘the State claim that it has not gained at all since the last census. The popu- lation cannot, certainly, now exceed 1,300,000. Upon this basis the per capita tax amounts to over four dollars. and sixty-one cents, which ism we than three times the sum, per head,. raised by, the people of North Carolina. The population of South Carolina was. in 1870, 923,447, aud. now numbers, probably, 1,000,000. In this respect, it is fully fifteen per ceut. behind North Carolina; while, as regards the natural resources of the two States, North Car- olina is incomparably the stronger. The property of South Carolina was assessed in 1874, upon an appraisement of $141,- 624,925, and the receipts from taxes in that year, amonnted to $1, 742,268. Hereafter, even under the wisest and most economical management ofits best citizens, the taxdevy for State uses will exceed $1,500,000, annually. This: is about $300,000 more than,- gr one and a quarter times, the amount which the Alabama will not compare either in climate, in situation, or in natural re- sources, with North Carolina. Yet, with a property assessed at $160,0:0,000, its true value being, perhaps, $209,009, - 000, and a population numberins, p ssi- bly, 1,050,000, it has to raise anuually more than would be necessary in North Carolina, to meet current expenses and pty interest on a debt of $10,090,099. The taxable value of the property o° Louisiana is placed at. about. $250,090.- 000. The population in 1870, was 725,- 915, and cau not possibly exceed 890,099 at the present time. The receipts, for State purposes only, from taxes, livenses, &e,, amounted, in 1873, to over $4,000, - 000, and will, probably, reach at least $3,000,000 for the current fiscal year. This necessjpates a tax of one and one™ fifth per cent. on the valuation given above, or three dollars and seventy-five cents per head of total population, which is about three and three quarter times the tax which the committee suggest shall be raised by the people of No th Carolina, Extravagance and utter disregard of the welfare of the people have, for years past, characterized the legislatures and officials of South Carolina, Alabama and Louisiana. North Carolina, also, has suffered’in this regard, but very lightly, indeed, in comparison with the other States named. The committee can. and do, sympathize with the people of thes: States. Several members have had to share with them the losses entailed by corrupt legislation and dishonest offi- cials. But, while they denounce both the wrong and the wrongdoers, the Commit- tee are justified in directing attention to the fact, previously stated, that, com- pared with either of the States mention- ed above, the people of North Carolina : it_i i Kaede eta cbs the people of North Carolina. rn Poetiet sar own Snaibilities and not cast all our difficnities upon them. + * * * * Let us obey the dictates of conscience and of eae and goo in the path of duty, that _we be able. to overcome all diffi- 4, calties, recollecting that the way to do thiisis to “face them and not to shut uur eyes on them.’ Unless we so re- solve, I see nothing but in the wilderness, until the "present gener- ation passes away.

The opinion eomnmen that hens must needs sus- pend payment when the weather becomes naggessity, They will.lay as readily from the ist of\January onward as at any time ifthe year, provided they are properly cdxed for. The eggs are in them, in em- buyo, and all that is needed to secure their coristant deposit in the nest is to pay suita- attention to the hens that have the ply. (1, The first essential is a warm shelter. If hens are left to spend their days in the snow ani to roost at night on the teres or in any exposed situation, it will be the néXxt thing to a miracle if they lay eggs. All their resources will be exhausted in resisting the cold; they will have none left to spend in producing eggs. A good héfi honse should be provided, with a warm rm exposure and sheltered from the winéty blasts. A glazed window facing the” south, or more than one, should be gixen them, tolet in light in days that dark‘and stormy, or when it is too for them to venture out. They should not.be confined to the hen-house during the qi& but will be much better off with aipgemzexercise outside of their night qimtcrs. 14 ¥ iness. is another , requisite. 2 should be kept free from that annoy fowls, and this can by the exercise of care and A hen-house should be thorough- internally with lime, as el the best preventives to the approch The hens should have access to a bed of dry ashes or earth, or a mix- tape.ef,the two is still better. This is not opposed to cleanliness, for pure earth and ashes are clean in the.eyes of the feather- and are a protection against what to is real dirt, They should be not oh seratch or wallow in their own droppings. 3. Meaband drink. They must be well fed, and:with the right kind of food. Al- mgetapy kind of grain, corn, wheat, buck- wheat or oats, will answer for their daily bread, although it is better to vary these é6easionally, for no one likes to be precisely the same diet year year out, But ,something more seen is needed for the of eggs.

After making their way down into the mud some, distance, the miners discovered.what was known to be the last ladder, or the on which rested on the bottom of the lgwest shaft. A few feet down this, the bones of a man’s arm were found. They were lying against the ladder, parallel to each other, with the small or wrist end turned upwards. The position of the bones immediately suggest- ed the idea that the individual who once started up the ladder, when he was cov- ered with the water and suffocated. These bones are just what it was expected to find. The Rudisill mine, although old and productive, and always been worked with much difficulty, owing to the fact that it was almost impossible to keep water out of it. Many were aware of the danger attending the work of excavating the ore, but the mine was paying well and good prices were given for labor. Finally the eventful day came and, as usual with such catastrophes, unexpectedly. Two negrd men Who Were laboring in the low- est shaft perished. The mine filled up so rapidly that ft was impossible to rescne their bodies.—Oharlotte Observer. —_———-ae THE VALUE OF ICE. Ice has become so important in the manufacture of the best butter, and in the preservation, of fruits, vegetables and meats in the sunmer, that no farmer can afford 'to be without it. With a good ice- house, well filled, he can put his perisha- ble products into the home market in first rate condition, and sell om the top of the market. Much of the material for family consumption inevitably spoils for want of ice. Fruits become stale, milk sours, meats are tainted, butter grows rancid, than and these losses united cost umch more the labor of gathering and storing the ice. It not infrequently happens that the first of the season is not only the best, but the only opportunity for securing a supply. December ice.is generally more transpar- ent and solid than that which forms later with partially melted snow upon the sur- face. The short crop of last season was owing mainly to the neglect of the Decem- ber harvést. Goodice might have been gathered then, but everybody was wait- ing for thicker ice, which in many places did not come at all. This was a good thing for the icemen of Maine, but rather expensive for the multitudes further south, who usually depend upon the home sup- ply. Farmers, we are glad to know, are getting more in the babit of using ice, and find it a profitable crop to gather. In the single item of manufacturing and pre- serving butter, it would save millions of dollars to the country. More than half the butter sent to the large markets is of the lower grades, and has to be sold at a discount of 25 to 50 percent. With a bet- ter preservation of the milk and cream, such as ice would furnish, and nicer meth- ods of making and storing, and sending to market, this immense loss might be saved to the farmers of the country.—Ameritan Agriculturist, The Western Rural has the following : “What do you think of an unbroken fur- row, six miles long? That is what you can see any day by going to Elm River, Cal., where Messrs. Dalrymple and Gran- din are breaking prairie.

Thompson could stand it no longer. Jumping tp from his seat, he gave the door a gentle shove which broke the lock and’ shook the glass out. of the window. Then he nailed up the door, sat down and felt like he had conquered a nation. The o 1 man then wanted to go out. He said he didn’t want to stay witha man who was so particular. Thompson asked him why the dickens he didn’t go out when the door was open. “‘See here,” said the beggar, as he clasp- ed both hands on the head of his stick and leaned forward; “suppose some day you are put in a room and that room has iron bars for a window; you hear merry voices from withont; you feel the damp, gloomy air of night stealing on, and know that the door is shut and-in that damp air you will sleep during the night. Do you think you will be sternly yelling ‘shut the door’ and endeavoring tofasten it more se- curely ?” Thompson laid down his paper and be- gan to weaken. “Suppose,” resumed the old man, “that the door was locked with a patent key ; that you receive a message from your family saying one of your children is dy- ing; that your wife is sinking beneath the grief and needed your presence at her bed side! Would you ery out ‘shut the door’ when the jailer came around.” Thompson arose, prized open the door and when he pressed a dollar bill in the old man’s hand as he was going out, was too deeply affected to hear the old villain say ‘I’ve never kuown that dodge to fail.” Thompson is negotiating for a seat of springs, by which he expects to keep his door hermetically sealed.— Bridges Smith's Paper. —— pe Remarkable is the following passage of Josephus, relative to the wickedness of his countryman before Jerusalom was was besieged by the Romans—‘‘That time abounded with all manner of iniquity, so that none was left undone. Yea, ‘thongh one endeavored to invent some new vil- lainy, yet could he invent none that was not then practiced.” _——-—~ Sanveur, the French mathematician, when he was about to court his mistress, would not see her, till he bad been with a notary, to have the conditions on which he intended to imaist redaced into a writ- ten form; for the sight of her should not leave him enough masterofhimself. Like a true mathematician, he proceeded by rule and line, and made his calculations when his head was cool. —_— A fond mother was in the act of cutting the pie for dinner, and proceeded to “eount noses,” as she termed it, that each might get his or her share, when a sug- gestion was made by her young female hopeful that the parent “count eyes,” thinking that if the amendment was car- ried, two pieces of pie would be allotted toeach of the feasters instead of one piece. oe A wolf, which for two years has been preying upon sheep in Coffee and Irwin counties, Georgia, was killed a few days ago. It had killed altogether more than five hundred sheep,.and a reward of $200 had been offered to any one who would kill it. It was a saying of Lord Clarendon’s father, that he never knew a man to arrive to any degree of reputation in the world, who chose for his friends and eompanions persons in their qualities inferior, or in their parts not much superior to himself. -_ Sooo A citizen of Huntington, Vt., has a eat which is in the Uahit of guing into a stable on cold winter nights and getting on the back of ene of the cows and remaining there during the night, having discovered that this is an effective way to keep warm. - A smoked ham weighing 112 pounds was exhibited in a store at Memphis, Tenn., a few days ago.

But jeat let that Presbyteriau grow up, amibevery word of that catechism will come baek to her, and her eharacter will stiffen up under it, and she'll have the back-bone of the matter all her life. “Now, I can’t put things into my child- ren that way. Nothin’ don’t stay somhow, It’s like drivin’ a nail into a rotten log.” “TI tell you, my brethering,” he contin- ued, “if your children bad a little more egtechism, and the Presbyterians a little less, it would be better for both. “Then we don’t pray in our families like they do. I know their prayers are mighty long—they pray all over creation; but, aftér all, its the right way. It's bet- ter than prayin’ too little.” Now, my father and mother were good Baptists, and raised their children to be honest and industrious ; but 1 never heard one of them pray in my life, and I was most a grown man before I ever prayed a prayer myself, and it was in this wise : “There was a big meetin’ over in Elbert county, and I know’d a pretty gal over there that I wanted to see. Sol borrow- ed a little Jersey wagin, which was a sty- lish thing in them days, and went over to her house and stayed all night, aud ef- gaged her to ride to meetin’ with me next day, which was Sunday. “We went and had a glorious time— and I might as well say right here that she wasafterwards my wite-—but a comin"home I met with a powerful accident that I never got over to this day. As I was comin’ down a stecp hill some part of the gearin’ give way and let me out of the wagiu am my cretur’s heels ; and, bein’ young and akeery, and.not much used to-wheels, she wiggled and kicked, and tore from one side of the rvad to the other, till I pitched head foremost as much as ten feet into a deep gully, and it’s a miracle of mercy that my neck wasn’t broke on the spot. “Expectin’ to be killed every minit, I thought I ought to ask the Lord for mer- ey. ButasTI had never prayed in all my life I couldn’t think of the first thing to say, but the blessin’ my father used to ask before eating, when he had company and which was this: ‘Lord, make us thankful for what we were about to re- céite.” “Now, my brethering, do you “spose any Presbyterian-raised boy was ever put to snch a strait as that for p prayer? No, He would have prayed for himself, and gone off after the Jews and heathens whilst I was huntin’ up and gittin’ of that -bes- sin.” ee Lord Ponsonby, under the instructions of Lord Palmerston, was at Brussels ad- vocating the imposition of the Prince of Orange upon the Deignn? as their‘new King. On M. de Weyer’s declaring that Orangeiam, Lord Ponsonby exelaimed, “The people, the people! Are you aware that within eight days 1 could have you hung froni the first tree in. the park by thia very people upon whom you rely!” “Yes,” was the reply, “I believe that with time and plenty of money you might; 4 but I could have you hung fn five mip- utes, and hung gratia, Don’t let us play at this, gmne.” The twe. gentlemen ' “Woman's Honot fa nite’ as pantancsadi will not bear a soil. too, without balkin’ or missing the first building the children of his mistress.

Widely khown and everywhere re- mrded with extreme veneration by the blacks it is not strange that they should be deeply moved by his words. A Vision. Lo! my eyes are open and I sce clearly. For many days I fasted and prayed; I put away from me all malice and sought to make my heart clear, my life before God, Alas, the heart of man is prone to evil. Like the dumb ox, he learns wis- dom slowly. I confessed my sins; I trust not in myself. Then wisdom came; my eyes saw the present and the fature. The great books of tidie were opened ' 80 pro- found Wis my astonishment that I hun- gered not, although I had fasted long. I asked the one who stood by me ‘what means these records 7?” , The shinning one said, “They are the lives of nations—mighty people that pass - ed away and left no trace.” “Don’t God always raise up those who have been debased,” I asked. “No,” he replied, “more often debasement goes be- fore extinction ; open thine eyes and see the future of thy people. ‘They are proud. They trust in themselves rather than in God. They have forgotten the gospel rule, “bless your cnemios, pray for those They speak bitterly. They are led to hate. ‘They are made to stand in hostile array. Look abroad now, and see the vision of the future.” Then I was lifted up aud through the blue sky of a summer day, Iaaw all my people. I saw them working on plunta- tions and in shops—TI saw them in schoola and churches. They were sometimes cheated, sometimes shamefully abused because they were black, but men wanted their labor, and they were slowly rising above wrong and prejudice. Then there went forth two, bearing vials of wrath, and these they ponred out upon the whole land. Then the sound of busy labor became hushed.—My people left the field and the workshop. Weeds e@hoked up the cotton.— The weeds smoth- eral the corn, The workshops slept. Some lay all day under the shade trees in vain hope of sometime taking all the property of the whiteman. Others crowd- ed into liquor stores and spent their time fin speaking bitterly of the bad past, and wishing. for revenge. The white people upon whom the vials of wrath were poured became bitter against the colored man. They said there are ten millions of ns whites, while there are only five millions of these blacks. Why should we bear with them longer? They seek now to oppress us. They are our enemies. We will put such burden upon them that they will be driven out or blotted out as a people. We no longer need their labor. We can hire men from Asia. Wecan get these men who will work harder, and be glad to get for a year’s work what we pay a black man for working one month. Then tJ saw millions of people brouglit with exceeding swiftness from Asia, and they filled up the whole southern country, and they were everywhere preferred to colored meu, and they settled in the land. Then hard laws were made aguinat the 9 | who wrong you. vagabonda. The angel brought me hack to my own place and said “They that seek strife and | bitterness shall perish thereby,” and I wept uiuch for the calamities of my peo- ple, A remnant maybe saved: if;they seek peace with all men, and labor a8 God : has appointed them.

The peculiar condition of the Florida vote, as well as the fact that it is the first State to come up with double returns, make the vote in that case of uneomiion interest.

It is established, finally, ‘that thé conspirators had arranged and determined to emiploy military force to carry out theit programme, or else the project of counting iu Hayes by the Senate only would not have been a thing for anybody to be aftaid of. To this edtisummition President Grant was pledged. For this purpose ‘he bronght troopsto Washington from dista posts. This design he has clearly an- nounced on several occasions, and it has been boldly expressed in the National Re- | publican newspaper, the party organ at’ Washington. This design and the mili- tary preparation formed the only real, substantial element in the Republican case. VII. This conspiracy has now been decidedly checked. The pretended power of the Presideut of the Senate has been expleded and rendered ridiculous. The conspiracy to declare Hayes elected by the frauds of the Florida Louisiana Re- turuing Boards has been defeated, for the present at least ; and the scheme of using military force to put down the House of Representatives in a revolutionary man- ner, has been anticipated and stopped ; and hence all the public satisfaction over the passage of the bill. VIII. All these things have been done, declared and established by a majority of hiere than two-thirds of each House of Congress. What may be the fetttre development in the’ working of the arbitration act, time alone can show. Bunt these present results frony the debates and votes of Con- gross ure positive and indisputable. ACTION; OF COLD UPON MILK. Prof, Maurice Perkins of Union College translates for the Country Gentleman, from the Paris Comptes. Rendus, some state- ments on this subject, which are of, in-, terest in connection with the discussions } now going ov here with, regard to the | Hardin pnd other systems of setting milk fx cream. It.is an abstract from @ pa-4 per by Eug. Tisserand, read, we. presume, before the French Academy; Numerous experiments have been made by exposing milk to different temper- —s varying from 32 deg. F. to 100 deg, F., and the following facts have been ' elicited : 1. The rise of the cream is the more rapid as the temperature to which the milk is exposed approaches 32 deg, 2. The volume of the cream is greater when the milk has been efficiently couled. 3 The yield of the butter is also greater when the milk has been exposed to a very low temperature. 4 Finally, the skimmed milk, the but- ter and cheese, are of better quality when prepared under the above ¢ircum- stances. While it is impogsible to olfer A. satis - factory explanation as to the reson, why artificial cold should produce a, beneficial @ffect upon the yield and quality of the produc ts derived from milk, it, is proba- ble that it niay tend to arrest that fer- mentative decomposition, which i is so prone to set in with organic fluids, and thne by |. preventing ipcip picnt alteration, indirectly. to improve the quality y of the material, The practice of. w ee the, dairy, in, winter time, 50.as to maintain its atmos, | phere at a constant temperature of a GO deg., is therefore o bjectionable ; vet pans should d in water, at as}: ‘10W a tempat en as ee practically ett It is farther sobs os the ‘forego- | ing facts shopld ba teeth Hromenent Sees * iar the’ of dairy, products, ordes tlige toe any eemreren A % ope es FTI 4e Danbury Netes Phe ‘moa The mages Mh at ern cook stove is a 1h; wequiire tent engineer with a stated salary to run it.” - atthe orth end of the patra ie the fact that.

God works by a natural law in contiection with our working, but makes us understand that it is all owing to him at last. Divgg providence fits.its work to, and conditions it mpon our acts; we take God at his word; like the man with a withered hand, he does for us what he promises when we do opurduty.

Of all the buuders that »theeeammoa farmer, and some others, make with treéa, none is 80 comunen; or se hurtful, and which he is so long finding out; and which he might know so certainty, is the prac- tice of cutting off lower limbs. All over the country nothing is more common than to see mutilated trees on almost every fuimn—big limbs cut off near the body of the tree, aud of coarse rotiening to the heart. ‘Chis is a heart sin agaiost nature. The very limbs necessary to protect the tvee fium wind and sun, and just where limbs are needed most, they are cut away. But the greatest iojary is the rotteping that always takes place when a big lim» is sawed off—too big to_ heal over, it must rot, and, being kept moist by the | growing Lee, is in the right condition io ret and being on the body, the rotting gees to the heart and huts the whole tree. It is common all over the country to see large orchards mutilated in this way. Trees, like children, should be pruned when young. If prened in the carly stage of the growth the wounds will heal, and if well duue your trees will be healthy and symmetrical in foim.— Erchange. I To prevent sea-sickness—stay on shore. To cure drunkenness—drink cold water, To keep ont of jail—keep out of debt. To please everybody—mind your own business.

When -we had taken out its contents—old fashioned dresses, feathers, laces, ete.,—in a tray, all by itself, was a dress which would have driven Queen Mab to envy, and which was evidently more modern in its fashion than the other articles strewn atotind us. It was a long trained skirt of the palest lilac silk, with an overdress of lilac tulle, covered with embroidered clever blossoms, as if some careless hand had flung them in profusion all over the delicate material. The rosettes on the tiny slipper’s were decorated in the same way, and a wreath of white clover a with mimic dewdrops, lay with bi ; 1 have heard she was a great belle ay] hy mamma, we'll have a tableaux fet the ‘Spirit of Good Fortune,’ and shall wear the dress.

Wher T was helping Elsie to dress, she opened a case, and taking out a massive chain clasped it around her neck, saying: “I will wear this to-night, Madge.” “Why, Elgie! what an exquisite thing. “Yes, it is all I have left of my mother’s.

When madame had first established her school, she was in her gar- den one day, and saw a young woman passing on her way from the station, car- rying a child inherarms. She was struck by the weary.look in the pale face. And going to the gate, she called her to come in and rest. Madame made her comfort- able in net sitting-room, and hastened to bring some refreshment. When she reach- ed the reom again, she saw the young woman had fainted, as she supposed. But it was not a faint—it was death. No in- quiries could discover who she was, aud she was quietly buried—dear, good ma- dame herself erecting a plain monument to her memory. The baby’s clothes were marked “Etsie Vettuor,” and so Whatlame | called her a SECOND BRIDGE BETWEEN NEW Y YORK AND BROOKLYN. The projectors of this proposed bridge over the East River, between New York and Brooklyn at 77th street, by way of Blackwell’s Island, have, in response to the invitation sent out, received ten se- parate designs and estimates from as many engineers. Ground will be broken as soon as a plan shall be decided upon.— The preliminary specifications ea}! for an approach on the New York side of 4,580 feet, 1,000 feet of which is to be in form of a tunnel extending from Fourth to Lex- ington avenues, From the end of the tunel, an iron superstruction, curving to the center of the blocks between 76th and 77th streets, and thence direct, leads- tq the river. From the pier on the brink of ‘the river, Blackwell’s Island will be reached by a single span of 734 feet. An iron structure 700 feet long will then lead over Blackwell's Island,and the channel between the island and the Long Island shore will be spanned by a single arch of 618 feet. The shore approach on the Long Island side will be 3,900 feet in len This will give in all a total length of 10,522 feet, or nearly two miles. A single track tramway will run across the bridge. There. be, gn addition to the main app vo auxiliary. ones, one from Aventte A°wm the New York sfde and the other from ¥grnon avenue, Long Island city. The spans are to be 135 feet above mean tide water. Double passen- ger elevators are to be placed at the piers on each side. oe William Henry Wright, Col. William McRee, and Col. Alexander Swift, all of whom received the highest honor their respective classes at West Point, were natives of Wilmington. It is cer- tainly worthy of mention that out of some five or #ix North Carolinians who stood number one at West Point, three should have been born in this place. Let it be borne in mind that but one person can stand numbef one or highest in a class. In the literary institutiona any nuinber may be graduated with the bon- |’ ors, but not so at our national military school. To be number one there means something. We have known a scholary young man to bear off easily the first hon- or iy his clags, at a leading college; hav- ing no competitor who could give him a close run, and yet he only secured num- ber six in his class at West Point, « with the advantages ofa fine literary educitfan. — Wil.

From the boxes the bonds, which are cut and caneeled thoroughly, and .the frac- tional currency are emptied into the mac- erating cylinder, which is also locked wi three separate locks, the keys, of which are held respectively by the officers named above. The process of macerating is very dimple. The macerating cylinder is r¢/ yolved by a sixty horse power, engine, and at the same time jete of steam are injected inte it, which speedily soften the mass of paper. The moistened paper by its own gravity keeps drdpping, and is reduced toa pulp by the sharp ridges which form the inside of the cylinder.— After being subjected to this treatment for about thirty-six hours the cylinder is untocked by the three officiats” ant? the pulp is then allowed to fall on an eleva- tor, which conveys it toa large tub, where it is thoroughly cleansed, and all fatty matter removed by the agency of quick- lime and soda. The washing pulp completes the process, and it @umped in a heap to lie until Recently about $4,500,000 worth of fractional curreucy was placed in the nméerater, This was an unusually large batch, the average “burnings,” 4s thé, magerations are called, being much less. These is now an im- mense quantity of the pulp on hand, probably several hundred tous. This will be sold to paper manufacturers. The rate usually paid for the pulp is in the vicinity of $5 per ton, and the principal purchaser manufactures from it @ very nice article of paper. An approximate estimate of the qurntity of pulp annually made out of the fractional currency or bonds at this establishment is 650 tons. The proceeds resulting from the sale of this may be counted asanct gain over the old method, as the burning of the money or bonds required the expenditure of as much labor as does the present ma- ceratipg system, and consumed a great deal more coal. The National Bank notes are converted into pulp by the centrifugal process in- side the Treasury building, the method adopted being almost in every respect similar to that pursued with the fraction- al currency and bonds, as described above. The improvement on the burning plan is too obvious to need extended mention. Extraordinary precautions were required to keep the destroyed money from flying otit of the furnace chimney, and the odor of the burned money was an intolerable nuisance, and was very injurious to the health of those residing in the neighbor- hood of the place where it was carried ou. This last reason would have been a sufficient one for changing the method, if the additional one of making an absolute aa¥ing'to the Government did not sug- peer itself.— Scientific Amer. ———- THE MAD-STONE. .Rev.&.

Like man, also, it walked upon its palms, in- stead of upon the ends of its fingers and toes, as do the horse, cow, ahd numerous other quadrupeds. Its massive tail might be considered as a full development of the rudimentary caudal appendage represent- ed in man by the coccyx.~ Like man, also, its natural food was furnished exclusively by the vegetable kingdom. Notwithstanding all these points of similarity, dissimilar characters were quite as numerous; and a still closer ana- logy might be readily established between man and other members of the brute erea- tion. Where did the megatherium live? is one of the many interesting questions which scientists propound respecting this animal. History is silent on the subject. No aneient naturalist ever described its structure or its habits.

They allowed themselves only two weeks time for learn- ing and rehearsing the play, and acquitted the short time consumed in prepar- ation. Miss Annie Rowree as Fan- chon, played her part well,Yespecially in the first two acts. This being her tirst attempt in a play of this character, and her’s being the part on which the success or failure of the play depended, threw ex- traordinary strains upen her and put to the severest test her abilities. That slic met these requirements in a marked de- gree of perfection no one who saw the performance will deny. She was spright- | ly, bright and fascinating in her role of Cricket, and won the heartiest applause of the audience. Mirs May Shober, as Madelon, and Miss Jennie ‘Coffin as Old Fadet, were signally good. In fact, Fan- chon was well supported and the perform) ance very far exceeded the expectation of the audience. Great praise is due our band.

Their plan is to pay the doctors for keeping them well, rather than for curing them when il], When a Chianaman gets sick, the pay of his physician is stopped until he is well again ; hence it is greatly for the advantage of the pig-tailed doctor to cure his patient aa soon as possible, and then to keep him well. If American phys- cians were paid for their services in the same Way, there would be a remarkable decrease in sickness. One would think, from the remedies used by Chinese doctors, that they took occasion to chastise their patients for be- ing sick, and thus depriving them of their fees, by administering as remedies the most abominable and disgusting articles, The following are few of the articles which were exhibited in the Chinese department at Philadelphia as medicines :— The lining membrane of a fowl’s gizzard, pox j fragmenta of the fossil used for diseases of the eye; dried toads to Gaiine ‘sweating ; maggots, for ‘delitium ; oyster shells, for deafness ; decoction of dried leeches, for a purgative, with num- An Irishmai éayt' the tinies’are so hard that he has parted with all his wardrobe bat the arm-holes of his wajstooat, i picaaeate ‘ou Wim st fie Z.

Speaking of scenery, my descriptions are so nme, I aun reminded of a letter 1 received not since from a charming young lady friend, jling me of her visit to the Centennial, and arious other places, during her sojourn of wen weeke, She says, “I have so often made ofall the adjectives I knew, expressing extent, magnitude-and beauty, that to use them pow seems nonsense, they ‘Goa! | expresa ‘anything.” She remarks, “During my stay North, it was only at West Point I-saw a thing in the manners of the men that soatlidk ed me at all of ourSuuthern genilemen.

I am ebliged to go on duty at once. really can not help the length of your dress, yet I beg your pardon for not hav- ing been more cautious. ‘You shall not stir, sir. That you are obliged to go on duty is nothing to us. My wife is right; the dress must be made good.’ The officer’s face grew pale. ‘You force me to break through the rules of the service, and I shall receive punishment.’ ‘Pay the two hundred rubies and you are free.’ The quickly changing color in the young man’s face, betrayed how inwardly. dis- turbed he was ; but stepping close up to them both, he said, with apparent self- command ; . ‘You will renounee your claim whea I tell you that I am a—a—poor man, who has nothing to live on but his officer’s pay, and the amount of that-pay hardly reach- es the sum of two hundred rubies in a whole year. I can, therefore, make no amends for the misfortune, except by aguin begging your pardon.’ ‘Oh! anybody could say all that; but we'll sce if its true; we'll find ont if you have nothing but your pay. I declare my- self not satistied with your excuses, and I demand my money,’ persisted the lady, in the hard voice of a thoroughly unfeel- woman. ‘That is true—you are right,’ the hus- added, dutifully supporting her. ‘By good Iuck we have the open court now just in session. Go with us before the Judge and he will decide the matter.’ All further protestation on the officer's part that he was poor, that he was expeet- ed on daty, and so forth, did not help matters. Out of respect for his uniform, and to avoid an open scence, he had to go with them to the court room where the gallery was densely packed with a crowd of people. After waiting some time, the lady had leave to make her complaint. ‘What have you to auswer to this com- plaint 7 said the Judge, turning to the officer, who seemed embarrassed and half in despair. ‘On the whole, very little. As the late- ness of the hour, and being required on duty, compelled me to hurry, I did not notice the lady’s train, which was drag- ging on the ground. I caught one of my spurs in it, and had the misfortane to tear the dress. Madame would not receive my excuses, but perhaps now she might find herself more disposed to forgiveness, when I again declare, 80 help me God, that I committed this awkward blunder without any mischievous intention, and I earn- estly beg that she will pardon me.’ A murmur ran through the gallery, evidently from the people taking sides with the defendant, and againat long trains, in general and the lady in particular. The Jndge called to order, and asked : ‘Are you satisfied with the defendant's explanation ? ‘Not at all satisfied. I demand two hundred rubies in payment for my torn dress.’ ‘Defendant, will you pay this sum ‘I would have paid it long before this had I been in a position to do so. Un- fortunately Iam poor. My pay as an officer is all I have to live on,’ ‘You hear, complainant, that the de- fendant ia not able to pay the sum you demand of him. Do you still wish the complaint to stand 1” An unbroken stillness reigned through- out the hall, and the young officer’s breath could be heard coming hard. ‘I wish it to stand. The law shall give me my rights.’ There ran through the rows of people a murmur of indignation that sounded like a rushing of water. ‘Consider, complainant, the consequen- ces of your demand. The defendant can be punished only through being deprived of his personal liberty, and by that you could obtain no satisfaction, while to the defendant it might prove the greatest in- jury to his rank and position as an officer, and especially a6 he is an officer who is As to the two hundred rubies—I | wait until you are able to return it.’ Thereupon the Prince held out two notes of a hundred rubies each, and coming close up to him, whispered a few words very | softly. There was a sudden lighting up of the officer’s face. He immediately took the two notes, and, turning toward the lady, handed them te her with a polite bow. ‘I hope, madame, that you are satisfied.’ With a malicious smile she reached out her hand for the money. “Yes ; now I am satisfied.’ With a scornful glance over the crowd of spectators, she prepared to leave the court-room on her husband’s arm. ‘Stop. madame,’ said the officer, who had suddenly become like another man, with a firm and confident manner. ‘What do you want ?’ The look that the young woman cast upon him was as insulting as possible. ‘E-want my dress,’ he answered, with a slight but still perfectly polite bow. ‘Give me your address, and I will send it to you.’ , “Oh, no, my dear madame, I am in the habit of taking my purchases with me at once. Favor me with the dress imme- diately.’ A shout of approbation came from the gallery. ‘Order ! cried the Judge. ‘What an insane demand!’ said the lady’s husband. ‘My wife can not undress here.’ ‘I have nothing to do with you, sir, in this matter, but only with the complainant. Be so good, madame, as to give me the dress immediately. I am in a great hur- ry; my affuirs are urgent, and [ «an not wait a moment longer.’ The pleasure of the audience at the ex- pense of the lady increased with every word, until it was hard to enforce any approach to quiet, so that either party could be heard. ‘Do not jest any moreabout it! I will hurry and send you the dress as soon as possible.’ ‘I am not jesting. I demand from the representative of the law my ewn prop- erty—that dress,’ said the officer, raising his voice. The Judge, thus appealed to, decided promptly. ‘The officer is right, madame. You are obliged to hand him over the dress on the spot.’ ‘I can’t undress myself here before all these people, and go home without any dress on,’ said the young woman, with anger and with tears, ‘You should have thought of that soon- er. Now you have no time to lose. Eith- er give up the dress of your own accord,—’ A nod that could not be misinterpreted brought to the lady’s side two officers of justice, who seemed about to take upon themselves the office of my lady’s maid. ‘Take your money back, and leave me my dress.’ ‘Oh, no, madame, that dress is now worth more than two hundred rubies to me.’ ‘How much do you ask for it ‘Two thousand rubies,’ said the officer, firmly. ‘I will pay the sum,’ the weeping lady’s husband responded, promptly. ‘I have here five hundred rubies. Give me pen and paper, and I will write an order upon my banker for the remaining fifteen han- dren.’ After he had written the draft the worthy pair withdrew, amid hisses from the audience.

Louisiana Democrats here suspect that Weldon is Mrs. Pinkston in male attire. Senate.—Mr. Logan, of Illinois, moved to take up the senate bill for the issue of silver coin, and to make the silver dollars a legal tender, being the bill introduced by him in August last. Mr. Morrill, of. Vermont, opposed the motion on account of the absence of the chairman of the committee on finance, Mr. Sherman, and said there had also been a kind of understanding that the bill should not be considered until after the repert of the silver commission should be made. During the discussion, Mr. Bogy, a member of silver commission, said the re- port of that commission had been com- pleted, and would have been submitted to the senate, had there not been a diffi- culty in having it printed. He hoped it would be printed and submitted to the senate in a few days. After much discusion, Logan moved to make the bill the special order for Monday next at 1 o’clock, p.m. Agreed to with- out a division. Honore, colored, secretary of the state of Louisiana, arrived here yesterday, with certain papers, under a subpeena from the senate committee on privileges and eleetions. It is supposed that they are papers which the House Louisiana com- mittee called for, and for refusing to de- liver which, the returning board is in distress. MIDNIGHT. THE COMMISSION. The commission by a vote of 8 to 7 decided that no evidence can be received in the Louisiana casc, except the clectoral certificates. Numerous propositions were made to take various kinds of evidence, but all | cases were rejected by a vote of 8 to 7. Commissioner Payne moved to allow counsel one hour’s time, but counsel de- clined, and the commission resumed its secret session, with a view of reaching the final decision to-night. The following are the resolutions acted upon the commission : Mr. Hoar submitted: the following: Orperep, That the evidence be not re- ceived. Mr. Abbott offered the following as a substitute; Resolved, That evidence be receivod, to show that so mueh of the act of Louis- fana, establishing the returning board for that State is unconstitutional, and the acts of the said returning board are void.

Rejected by the same vote. Mr. Abbott then offered another sub- stitute : Resolved, That the commission will re- ceive testimony on the subject of the al- leged objection to the specification of counsel for the objectors to certificates J] and 3.

Mr, Hunton offered a sixth substitute as follows: Resolved, That evidence be received to prove that the votes cast at said election on the 7th of November last, as shown by the return made by the commissioner of election for the said polls and voting pla- ces in said State, have never been com- piled nor canvassed, and that the said re- turning board never even pretended to fcompile or canvass the returns “by said commissioners of election, but that said returning board only pretended tocanvass the returns made by the State supervisors of registration. Rejected by the same vote. A seventh substitute was offered by Mr. Bayard as follows: Resolved, That no person holding an office of trust or profit under the United States is eligible to the appointment as an elector, and that this commission will receive evidenee tending to prove said ineligibility as offered by counsel for ob- jectors, to certificates numbers 1 and 3.

Herald.] Lonpon, Feb. 10.—This great world of London felt an unusual thrill of expec- tancy through its million hearted bosom last Thursday morning, the day set down for the opening of Parliament. When the sovereign of these realms delegates the task of opening Parliament to him of the woolsack, London waits without ex- citement for the papers to get out their extras containing ‘“‘the Queen's. Speech,” and there is the end of it. But “the Queen will open Parliament in person”— that changes everything. The American curosity to see a famous personage is a feeling entirely different to the English- man’s desire to see the parade of royalty with their well-beloved Queen as the cen- tral figure. It calls up the stately tradi tions of centuries, and in the presence of the fact that a Queen and Empress is about to open the session something of the majestic pageants of olden times: from Norman William through Plantagenets, Tudors, Stuarts and Hanoverians floats fascinatingly before the eyes of the Eng- lishman, while the Englishwoman, be she peeress or sewing girl, delights her heart with a picture of the pomp of robes. and coronets, silks, jewels and eloth of gold, over which the romance of the past flings a mellowing splendor. From early. morning the people, old and ad} young of both sexes, gathered in swarms, pid as only London can tugn out, in the viciiity of Westminister and Charing Cross and along the Mall in the Park, the route Her Majesty would take from Buck- -lingham Palace to the House of Lords. Meantime the gorgeous Chamber of the Lords, warm and rich in collor as it al- ways is with the softened light pouring in through the stained glass windows, the groined and fretted roof, the sculptured barons of the Magna Charta frowning solemnly from their niches, the great frescocs of Machise, Horsely and Dyee at either end of the Chamber, was taking on new and more brilliant tones. By aquar- ter to one o’clock the chamber was filled, the peeresses and their friends covering the benches until the floor of the house looking from the galleries resembled a par- terre of the richest hued flowers that hor- ticulturists ever gathered into a single bed, the ladies all being in full dress cos- tumes. An hour before the ceremony for which all was waiting the diplomatic de- partment was filled with Ambassadors in brilliant costumes, their breats starred with decorations. Among the early arrivals were Lord Houghton and the Duke of Westminister, in their peers’ robes of scarlet, trimmed with ermine ; Deputy Lord Great Cham, berlain, iad Aveland, gorgeous in velvet, ‘embroidered with gold ; the Duke of Rich- mond, Lord President of the Privy Coun- cil, in military uniform, as aide-de-camp ‘| of the Queen ; the Duchess of Sutherland, in creamy white satin, elaborately trim- 'med with antique lace and miniver fur. But they came pouring in so fast and in ‘1a stream so brilliant that the eye could scarcely identify one celebrity or queenly beauty before another swept past. The latest to arrive was the Countess of Dud- ley, considered the handsomest peeress in Great Britain—a tall, stately and fair creature of some thirty summers, with auburn hair, delicate features and vio- | beautiful and fair as @ lily, ‘show trace of Time's fingers, looked | gracious and smilling.

Under this decision, no matter by what fraud a man might be elected President or Vice President, or how ineligible an elector might be, there was no powcr toinguireintoit. The vote of an ineligible elector must be counted, and neither the State nor Congress could jright the wrong. He utterly dissented from such a decision as_ being destructive |to Republican government. ‘The decision would have the effect of a proclamation to dishonest returning boards to perpe- trate whatever villainly their interests might dictate, with the absolute eertainty that they would be suecessful.

Charles Sumner, Senator from Massachusetts, was fond of talking of the “Barbarism of Slavery,” and of the “High- er Civilization of the North.” One of the products of that higher civilization ‘is Mormonism, which has never been able to gather a single proselyte at the South. Our Northren brethren, who support Re- turning Board Hayes, are entitled to all the honor belonging to this Institution. We record below a prayer of one of the Mornon Saints, very much such a one as Beecher or Haven would have uttered be- tween “61 and °65. A Mormon Church was dedicated at St. George, Utah, on the Ist day of January, and this brought forth the prayer from Elder Woodruff. Thus he prayed for Brigham Young, the Mor- mon Beecher : “May he live to behold Zion redeemed, and successfully fight the devils, visible and invisible,.that make war upon ‘thy Saints. May he live to behold other tem- ples built and dedicated unto thy name and accepted of thee, O Lord our God. And we pray: thee, our Father in Heaven, in the name of Jesus Christ, if. it can be consistent with thy will, that thy servant Brigham may stand in the flesh to behold the nation which now occupies the’ land upon which thou, Lord, hast- said the Zion of God should stand in the latter days, that pation which shed the blood of the Prophets and Saints which ary unto God day and night for vengeance, the na- tion which is making waragainst God and his Christ, that nation whose sins, wick- edness, and abominations are ascending up before God and the heavenly host, which causeth all eternity to be pained and the heavens to weep like the falling rain ; yea, O Lord, that he may live to see that nation, if it will not repent, broken in pieces like a potter’s vessel and swept from off the earth as with the besom of destruction, as were the Jaredites and Nephites, that the land of Zion may cease to groan under the wickedness and abomi- nations of men.’ If we cadeistand the Mormon elder aright, he invokes God to curse and over- throw “the best Government the world ever saw,” unless the inhabitants thereof repent and—become Mormons. — Elder Woodruff goes a little farther than the New School Presbyterians did ‘in 1862. He prays for a curse upon those who dif- fer withhim. They said that if God chese todestroy the rebels, they would acquiesce. This is the language they use in the Gen- eral Assembly : “While under the intluence of humanity and Christian benevolence, we may com- miserate the condition of the ruined reb- els once in fraternity with ourselves, but now—should the ease oceut—despoiled of all that makes the worlddear to them, we must at the sane time be constrained to feel that the retribution has been_ self-in- flicted and must add, Fiat justitia ruat calum.” We hardly know which is the most shocking in this solemn deliverance of 2 religious body, its Satanic malignity or its awful blasphemy. It amounts simply to this, that if God thought fit to smite the rebels and despoil: them of all that made life dear to them, they would com- pliment Him by approving His action! But, the writer quoted by us some wéeks ago, ina United Presbyterian paper, ex- ceeds even the Mormon elder and the New School Presbyterians in virulence and blood-thirstiness. He thinks thatthe great sin of the Northern people was that they did not purify the land by shedding rebel blood after the rebels had laid down their arms. To this mistaken leniency in not hanging, shooting or burning the rebel leaders, he attributes the corruption of the people, the Whisky Rings, Railroad Rings and stealing generally, that have made his party, pre-eminently the rogues” party of the Universe. This writer’s idea is that because Iris party did not “purge the land with blood,” (his own words) the Lord had given them over to “a reprobate mind” and to an intense, uncontrollable desire to steal. "We readily admit that | ance they have this desire, but we account for it differently. For ten years, Pulpit and | Press taught that there was but one éfow:- | sin—disloyalty. Hence the people took the lesson and ‘liad fio upbraidings of con- science when they “picked up things,” provided they, were loyal, "The li vir: regularity of, single * be only, ‘a loyal, eccentricity and was sane vided | balanced by the 7, sof ha ng the South- ern rebels, . , We think that our explanation of . |. | feaSon of the kleptomaniac disease in | Pie f a a , ry ome Ten Unis ‘sigan rs ice, but the fees of each member ofl” reeed 03 pee tors Es the connty,.but net ex |/ wit ing virtue—loyalty—and but one damning | counter- | €d mil te ans = ati will ee {o tbetaaet or Re. el eat eared See phn al of i | Court; this. 2¢ a Waetaaee ae Le - wt neti ; Sx: of itsteoyina's PRG yy oe! tiles, 6 tee pio odd biel eer PY ‘Boyd To.

The soil is as varied as the surface and the greater part of it is unsurpassed for its richness by any locality in the world. The uplands produce grainaand grasses which challenge the com- petition of the prairie states of the north west. The Ozark Mountains extend through the nérth western. portion of the State and are capped by plateaus on which the papaw, black walnut, sngar maple and grape flourish most luxuriantly. Upon these highlands apples are grown and cider pressed, which rival the pro- ducts of New Jersey and New York.

Redfield, the correspondent of that Radical and venomous paper, the Cineinnati Commer- cial, has been preparing the way for some months “‘to take the negro out of politics.” His last letter closes thus : “The blacks in the cotton States, as a political power of service to the Republi- cans, will amount to no more than blades of grass. There is no such voting materi- al elsewhere on earth ; and the surprise is that any one should have supposed that ple, could stand out against the united front of their masters. ‘Their enfranchise- ment and consequent enlargement of the political power of the South was a clear case of suicide, or attempted suicide, by »|the Republican party.

The bill to establish courts of inferior jurisdiction in the several counties in the ¢| State, passed its third reading in the Sen- ate on yesterday without any material change in the provisions of the bill as , | Printed in The Observer. The great object of the bill is to provide a more speedy jail delivery, thereby re- lieving the counties of the enormous costs | constantly accumulating for the keep and feed of prisoners in jail awaiting trial be- fore the Superior Courts. The relief thus given to the criminal dockets in the Superior Courts will insure to the public good in, another way, that is to say, by enabling the Superior Courts to devote a much larger proportion of their terms to the trial of civil cases. Mr. Mebane devoted himself with his accustomed énergy and ability to the ad- voeacy of the bill. With better local governments and with speedy jail deliveries the people of the counties under negro rule will_be relieved of very many of the burdens under which | they have so long labored.

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 beat 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 o1 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 acticn.” (Signed 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 instruments, and they are the ONLY ones assigned this rank. This triumph was not unexpected, for the Mason & Hamlin Cabinet Organs have uniformly been awarded the highest honors in competitions in America, there having been scareely six exceptions in hundreds o1 competitions.

Many of the lajger gardens and hot-houses were established during the flush times between 1360 and’J8z0, when large sums were lav ished on decorations. At the wed- ding of -Tweéd’s daughter for instance, the floral’dégigns, bouquets, and parlor deco ops. are said to have cost nearly 34,000. ildmee, 1871 there bas been no notable Mérease in’the number of flower producef# inthis vicinity. The number of retail dealers, howeyer, has increased, and with greater competition and smaller demand tlie priees and profits have been materially lowered. Indeed, says a Times reporter, to whom we are indebted for a three-column review of the trade, it is only ‘at holiday seasons that prices can be regarded as handsomely remuner- ative, For example, a shipment of roses and violéta sent to Boston just before New Year’s brought $15 a hundred for the roses and: $1.50 for the violets; but by the 10th the same sorts of flowers were re- spectively worth only $4, and half a dol- lar a hundred. At this midwinter season the assortment of flowera.in the New York market em- braces temehoice varieties of roses, four varieties of camellias, several varieties of earnatidnd, violets in abundance, helio- tropes, mignonettes, pansies, primroces, azaleas, forget-me-nots, the sweet alys- sums, ete.» Phe lilies of the valley seem to gain in popularity constantly; and not- withstagding the great number grown about New York, so high are they in favor that the price ig always good. Roehrs, of Union Hill, N. J., grows 150,000 sprays of them amnually. One day last year he sent to thé city by one man 10,000 sprays, for whieh, ‘he received fifteen cents each, or $1,500-for a single back-load. Carl Jurgens; of Newport, Rhode Island, grows this winter 800,000 sprays of these little beauties, Roman hyacinths, which rival the lillies of the valley in popularity, are worth jiist now from seven to ten cents a spray, or from one and a half to two dol- lars a dozen. Orchids are always hard to get and very costly; sometimes as much as five dollara has been paid for a single tlower. The finest collection of orchids grown for the trade in this country is be lieved to be that ef George Such, of South Amboy, N. J. . Among foliage plants, ferns and smilax are most commonly used, and are justly prised for thetr effect in lighting up all floral decorations. Ordinary branches of ferns cost but three dollars a hundred, but some of the rarer kinds command as much as fifty centseach. The amount of smilax used heseiis enormous, experienced florists estimati#ig that from 1,000,000 to 1,500,000 feet of tis beantiful vine are made up annually inythis city. Formerly it used to be imported entirely from Boston, at a cost of a yard for single strings; now that the florists are growing it large- ly, the tie ‘ts greatly reduced. This winter & pe than three thousand dol- lars’ westhiof all kinds of flowers and fuilage sane A “hnported from Boston, while ly more than that amount has beepssemd there, besides large ship- ments t#PHiiladelphia, Baltimore, Albany, and other cities.

Ral Qbeorver, ” we toqzae the | simplest, and that the truths on’ which they are founded appear obvious. How- ever commonplace some inventions may seem when they have become familiar to everybody's understanding, it must not be overlooked that. for centuries their truths had lain concealed from the busy brain of man. If the real nature of great discoveries is fairly considered, as well as the intellectual processes which they in- volve, none can seriously hold the opinion that such inventions have been the effect of mere accident; but on the other hand, it must be apparent that sach soi-dieant accidental discoveries never happen to ordinary men. We believe that inves- tions dawn gradually on the contemplated mind; a certain fixed idea becomes, step by step, developed, by patiently weighing the pros and cons, yntil at last a sort of electric spark convulses the brainymoment- arily sending a glow of joyful spasm to the heart, and true genius is born to the world.— British Mail. A WOMAN'S INVENTION. All lovers of good toast will be inter- ested in the following”useful bread toaster, the invention of Mrs. A. C. Harris, of Granville county, N. C. It is not patent- ed, and can be made by all who wish to use it. It is made by taking a piecefof sheet iron or heavy tin, about 18 inches square, and turning up the edges so as to form a shallow tray, to give sufficient stiffness to the sheet. A number of V shaped openings are now made in regular order across the bottom; and tongues of the V’s are turned up at right angles to the sheet. These shap points are to hold slices of bread pressed upon them. A short piece of stout wire hinged to the back serves as a prop to hold it at any angle to the fire. After placing the slices of bread in position, by pressing them on the points, the toaster is set up on the hearth before an open fire, where the bread soon assumes a rich brown color, and then the slices should be reversed. If the tower part should brown before the upper, the toaster can be turned upside down, and so bring the underdone bread nearest the fire. This useful invention costs only a few cents, and when once used, it becomes a household necessity. ee AN INTELLIGENT WATCH. Mark Twain has been exaniining a cu- rious watch at a jeweler’s in New Haven, Conn., which he describes as follows: “T have examined the wonderful watch made by M.fatile, and it comes nearer to being a human being than any piece of mechanism I[ ever saw before. It knows considerably more than the average voter. It knows the movements of the moon and tells the day of the week, the month, and en oe) eo m, 4 be relbly and Royicatty Dro you have made long stride in the-right |. ° you need specially to cultivate memory ;, and we believe this can best. be dune by the association of things and.ideas.

Antonio Blitz, better known as Signor Blitz, the famous ventriloquist and con-4 juror, died recently in Philadelphia, in the sixty-seventh year of his age. Mr. Blitz came to country from England in 1834, and at once became famous for his remarkable dexterity in the art of leger- demain. He Wes a very ingenius inventor, au@ many of the most startling tricks of later magicians originated with him. He besides was quite a humorist, and delight- ed to use his peculiar talents for purposes of harmless fun. It is related that a favor- ite amusement of his was to visit the markets, and there enjoy the astonishment of the old fruit women when he gravely extracted gold dollars from their oranges, and of the egg dealers, when their eggs hatched eanaries under his marvellous touch. Personally, Signor Blitz was a refined and pleasant gentleman and lavishly charitable to the poor. The best anecdote that is related of him describes how one sour-faced ascetic came and remonstrated with him, and taxed him with inculcating in the popular mind a proneness to decep- tion. The Signor politely heard him through, and did not excuse himself in the slightest particular; but iastead, he quietly extracted a pack of playing cards from his visitor’s coat pocket and then a dice box and dice from the crown of his clearical hat. The giver of good advice departed in dumb astonishment. <-> WIFE'S REVENGE. This isthe old Hebrew cabalistic legend ADAM'S FIRST will do this perpetually; it tells the hour of the day, the minute, and the second, and splits the seconds into fifths and marks the division by stop hands; having two stop hands, it can take care of two race-horses that start one after the other; it is a repeater, wherein the voter is sug- gested again; musically chimes the hour, the quarter, the half, the three quarter hour, and also the minutes that have pass- ed of an uncompleted quarter hour—so that a blind man can tell the time of day by it to the exact minute. “Such is this extraordinary watch; I should think one could add another wheel and make it read and write; still another and make it talk; and I think one might take out several of the wheels that are already in it, and it would be a more in- telligent citizen than some that help to govern the country. On the whole, I think it is entitled to vote—that is, if its sex is the right kind.” ~~ THE YOUNG SHOULD BE TAUGHT TO THINK, We have often suggested in our columns the importance of parents and teachers drilling the young people under their charge to think. The greatest difficulty a teacher has to contend with is not in accustoming the pupil to repeat the rules in grammar, arithmetic, and other studies, but to induce him to reflect on the reason why the rules are laid down, and why following the rule produces a correct re- sult: in other words, to teach the pupil to think. A correspondent, Mr. R. K. Sloason, reflects in the Western Rural our thoughts on this subject ina somewhat lengthy article, from which we make the following extracts : The world is indebted for nine tenths of its valuable knowledge, its improvements and progress generally, to men and wo- men who have trained themselves to think in a@ systematic and consecutive manner. No man has ever become eminent in science, art, literature, or farming, who was not a profound thinker—who did not well examine and compare all the items pertaining to the subject—to know wheth- er, in their various relations, they sus- tain the principle which public opinion upholda as being true, It is not a very uncommon thing that a principle has been enunciated by men who have pet theories to support, and where it is plain to a thinking, unbiased mind, that some of the important items of the theory are in direct aptagonism to the principle, and therefore false; or otherwise, the principle itself has no foundation in truth, The earlier, consistent with health, that youth learn to think, the more massive and powerful will be the brain in maturi. ty—the better prepared will be the mind to shed a glaw of interest and happiness on all around, and fill itself with an in- tense sense of enjoyment unknown to the undisciplined mind. This process of thinking should be systematized, so that the mind can bend its energies in full force on one point at atime, and after having cxamiyed in this menuor ihe whole 'of Lilith, the first wife of Adam, as told | by M. D. Conway, in his leetare on the jdevil: “She was a splendid beauty, with wondrous golden hair. She was created Adam’s equal’ in every respect; and, therefore, properly enough, refused to obey him. For this she was driven from the garden of Eden, and Eye was created—made to order, go to speak—of one of Adain’s ribs. Then the golden-haired Lilith—jealous, enraged? | pining for her first home in Paradise—en- tered in the form of a serpent, crept into the garden of Eden, and tempted Adath and Eve to their destruction. And, from that day to this, Lilith, a cold passionlcas beauty, with golden hair, has roamed up and down the earth, sparing the sons of Adam, and destroying them. You may | always know her dead victims, for, when- ever aman hag been destroyed by thé hands of Lilith, you will always find a single golden hair wrapped tight around his lifeless heart. To this day maby andy many a son of Adam js lured to death and ruin from having the golden hair of a woman wrapped too tight areund his heart.*— Proof- Sheet. ; a cold, passionless, When the Young Athenian on the fence asked,—Shall I marry, or remain single f —the Old Greck answered,—Do either, and you will repent! —_>- Old Ben Franklin sometimes said a good thing;—for example,—‘If a man empties his purse into his head, no man can take it from him.’ —__.<p-— Prize Conundrum.—W hy don’t a woman like to hear her husband make a public speech ?

There was once a German duke who disguised himself, and during the night placed a great stone in the middle of the road, near his palace. Next morning a sturdy peasant, named Hahns, came that way with his lumbering ox-cart. ‘O these lazy people!” said he, “there is a big stone right in the middle ofthe road, and no one will take the trouble to put it out of the way.” And so Hahns went on his way, scolding about the laziness of the people. Next came a gay soldier along. He had a bright plume waving from his helmet, and asword dangling by his side, and went singing merrily on his way. His head was so far back that he didn’t notice the stone, so he stumbled over it. This stopped his song, and he began to storm at the country people, and call them “boors and blockheads, for leaving a huge rock in the road for a gentleman to fall over” Then he went on. Next came a company of merchants, with pack-horses and goods, on their way to the fair that was to be held at the vil lage near the duke’s palace. When they came to the stone the road was 80 narrow that they had te go-off-im -singie file on either side. One of them, named Berthold, cried out. “Did anybody ever see the like of that big stone lying here all the morning, and no one stopping to take it away ?” It lay there for three weeks; and nv- body tried to remove it. Then the duke sent round word to all the people on his lands, to meet at a deep cut in the road, called Dornthou, near where this stone lay, as he had something to tell them. The day came, and a great crowd gath- ~ ered at the Dornthou. Each side of the cut was thronged with people over-look- ing the road. Old Hahns, the farmer, was there, and so was Berthold, the merchant. And now a winding horn was heard, and the ‘people all strained their necks and eyes toward the castle, as a splendid cavalcade came galloping up to the Dorn- thou. Tho duke rode into the cut, got down from his horse, and with a pleasant smile began to speak to the people thus: “My friends, it was I who put this stone here three weeks ago. Every passer-by has left it just where it was, and has scolded his neighbor for not taking it out of the way.” When he had spoken these words he stooped down, and lifted up the stone. Directly underneath it, was a round hollow in which lay asmallleathern bag. Theduke held it up that all the people might see what was written on it. On a piece of paper, fastened to the bag, were these words. “For him who lifts up the stone.” He untied the bag, and turned it upside down, and out fell a beautiful gold ring and twenty large bright golden coins. Then everybody wished that he had moved thé stone, instead of going round it and only blaming his neighbors. They alllost the prize “because they had not learned the lesson, or formed the habit of helpfulness. And we shall lose many a Prize, as we go ou in life, if we don’t form this habit. That bag of money was the duke’s promise of a reward for helpful- ness. But that promise was hidden away under the stone so that no one could see it. God’s promises are not hidden in this way. They are written plainly out in the Bible, so that we may all see them and understand them. Dr. Franklin used to say, “What though you have found no treasure, and had no legacy left you, never mind. Remember that dilligence is the mother of good luck. Then, Plough deep while singgards sleep, And you will have corn to sell and keep. Work while it is called to-day, for you how not how much you may be hinder- tted to-morrow. One to-day is worth two to-morrows for anything that you tan do to-day.” ae When Wells was before the investiga- committee of the House the other Y he asked the question, “Am Ia vas- ramTa peer?” His question can tow be answered.

DECISION IN THE LOUISIANA CASE. ~ Comments of the Press. The decision of the Electoral Commis- sion in the Louisiana case has elicited from the Democratic press expressions of keep disappointment and disgust, whilst Republican papers generally are enthusi- astic over what they gravely term a “great Republican victory.” The an- nexed extracts will indicate the general tone of the press : New York World: “As fer the Demo- cratic party, since it in good faith accep- ted this tribunal, we do not see how any bad faith or incompetehcy on the part of its accepted agents can release it from its obligations. We have little doubt that no calamity could befall a free country worse than the inauguration of a Presi- dent under a vitiated tithe. We have not the slightest doubt there is one thing much worse for any political party than an honorable defeat—and that is a dis- honorable victory.” New York Sun: ‘The House must not be caught napping while the conspirators who are now striving to impose a fraudu- lent President on the country are plot- ting also to steal the organization of the House in order that they may have full swing at the Treasury. Mr. Speaker Randall will do well to keep his eyes on every exposed point, and see to it that the most trusted men only are put on guard. There never was a timo when vigilance was more needed than now.” New York Herald; ‘This decision fore- shows the election of Mr. Hayes. If Mr. Tilden’s temper is magnanimous and his sense of obligation strong he will be easily reconciled to his personal disappointment by the high honor and splendid devotion accorded him by a political party which comprises a majority of the citizens of the United States.” New York Tribune: “The country is likely to believe that it isan honest set- 'tlement. Few have any doubts as to Florida. There is no longer a dispute as to South Carolina. It is clear that the ‘Jaw is with the Republicans in Louis- ' jana.” New York Times: ‘‘Doubtless the Dem- ocrats will revile the Commission as par- | tisan ; but that will be of little conse- quence. The country will see, if the | Democrats do not, that the reason why | the commission divided on party lines was that the Democrats refused to cross | the party lines.” New York Graphic: “This decisiun completely destroys the Supreme Court fetish, That body has been one of. the American idols. It has been looked up to as an embodiment of preternatural wisdom and impartiality. The event has proved that its judges are men, and are | moved by the same motives, fired by the | game passions,’‘and warped by the same partisanship as other men.” New York Express: “The decision is a disgrace to the country and a dishonor to ' the men who committed it. The people of the United States decided one way, and ‘judges of the Supreme Court decided against the people.” Brooklyn Eagle: ‘The snaps and tricks and frands which they are unable to guard against will be universally referred. - to in the years that are to come with the ' contempt to-day felt for them by every va CF be of Republican in all time to come must stink im the nostrils of décent men. ‘The duty of Conservatives and Democrats is clear—let them be true to themselves, their pledges and their country; submit to the theft of the Presidency, but organ- ize for an eternal warfure against’ the thieves.” Richmond Dispatch: “The Electoral Commission has disappointed all our hopes. The vote of Louisiana is, to be counted for Hayes. We have no heart to pursue the subject. We are pained—we may say grieved—to find that judges of the highest Court in the land are so unworthy of public confidence.” Lynchburg Virginian: “We trust that the popular branch.of Congress will never permit Hayes-to steal into the office, to carry with him into that high place all the filthy odors of the Louisiana and Flor ida frauds.” Cincinnati Bnquirer: ‘This practically ends the word of the tribunal. It is in- capable of decency or honesty. It will be worse than useless to argue any fur- ther questions before it for any purposes save delay. It has no longer a title to respect or a right to exist. It isa mock- ery.” Louisville, Ky., Courier-Journal: ‘‘The spectacle presented in the action of the majority of the Commission is one that should provoke more serrow and morti- fication than anger. The Democracy have nothing to blame themselves with. They trusted to the honor of men whose positions and reputations gave assurance of at least a decent regard for fairness. They have been deceived.” St. Louis Republican: “There will be no more compromise on political questions in this country. A Presidential dispute will never again be submitted to arbitra- tion. Republican perjury has put an eternal quietus upon that kind of busi- ness.” The most disgraceful chapter in Amer- ican history may now be written, for nothing remains to complete it but mere form. A Commission believed to becom- posed of the best elements of both page ties has shocked public confidence and respect, by a partisan judgment, which makes the corruption and rascality of Wells’ Returning Board respectable by contrast.—FRal. Observer. -—-———-+or-——_____ It will be recollected, says the Wash- ington Union, that Mr. Helper, the author of “The Impending Crisis,” turned’ Dem- ocrat and dedicated his pen to satisfying his former converts that the man and brother and the missing link were one and the same ligament between the higher and lower orders of creation. And now comes Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe, whose “Unele Tom’s Cabin” was a political and social brand that could not be quenched. This lady has been dwelling in Florida for many seasons, and she arises to the defense of the Southern people in.an earn- est and honest way. She assures the ig- norant and bigoted people of the North that if they go South with good intent they will receive good treatment; that the reports of inhospitality, rudeness, or m- timidation, are untrue. The sooner this fact is understood the better for both sections. me Philadelphia Times: Sam Bowles writes from Washington that Republicans of any real character or standing have ceased to defend the Louisiana returning board. Yet these same Republicans ac- cept the fruit of the returning board’s in- famy. ae New York Sun: On Tuesday last Ruth- erford B. Hayes, with the four stolen votes of Florida buttoned safely in his pocket, presided at a religious meeting in Cincin-. nati and made a brief speech urging Christian men and women to aid in the suppression of crime ! — SS GOING IN DEBT WITHOUT. THE PROBABILITY OF PAYING. One of the crying evils of the times is the habit of going in debt without a reas- onable prospect of paying. Every day we see men rushing headlorg in debt. . When a sale takes place selling strictly forcash, how few men buy, but: just commence selling on a credit, and what a numberof buyers spring up all at once. Men, who are now going about with pockets empty of money and full of duns, buy as though they expected the clouds in future to rain down money in great abundance. What golden visions they see looming up'in the fdture. Why; they expect to pick money witty, finely is a great deal better to suffer for the lack of things and be honest, than to enjoy and let other folks pay for your enjoy- ment.—Shelby Sunny-Side. - —_—+—_ +> SOUTHERN GENIUS. We clip the item below from the Phila- delphia Presbyterian : “In an old number of the Staunton (Va.) Spectator for August 11th, 1839, is an ad- vertisement of the first trial of Cyrus H. McCormick’s reaper on the farm of James Smith, now owned by Col. J. C. Cochran, five miles from Staunton. It created a great sensation, and the following gentle- men certify to its partial efficiency : Abra- ham Smith, Geo. Eskridge, Jas. Bell, Jo- seph Smith, Wm. B. Donaghe, Silas H. Smith, Nicholas C. Kenney, Edward Val- entine, Kenton Harper, Jas. Points, Benj. Crawford, and Solomon D. Coiner—all dead except Benjamin Crawford, of Staun- ton, and Edward Valentine, now of Buch- anan. What a theme for the philosopher to moralize over! Then the poor inventor, timidly showing his machine. on our hillsides to the sceptical well-to-do farmers, and paying for his notice as an advertisement—now all dead and gone but two noble gentlemen—and McCormick almost able to purchase all the land in ten miles square of where he made his first trial, his name famous over the world, States grown up out of the then wilder- ness, next two great wars, and still the ‘Reaper’ goes on, keeping steady licks with the great reaper, » giving life, and joy, and food to millions.” The father of Mr. McCormick and not himself is the inyentor of the Reaper. We have heard the late Rev. James Morrison, of BroWwnburg, Virginia, say that the el der McCormick used it for some years up- on his own farm, before it became known outside of his neighborhood. There were defects about the first invention and the farmers laughed at it as a crazy hobby of Mr. M. The Reaper as it came from his hands, however, was the same in all es- sential particulars as.that which is now used throughout the world. The Southern people have paid but lit- tle attention to the mechanic arts, but they have, nevertheless, made those dis- coveries and inventions, which pre-emi- nently, distinguish the age in which we live. John Gill of Newbern, N. C., is the real inventor of the revolver, which has: made such a revolution in the tactics and strategy of military nations. From want of means, he associated himself with Colt; who stole the invention and the profits thereof. Gabriel J. Rains, of Newbern, N. C., also, is the father of the torpedo system; which securely protects rivers and harbors against the most formidable iron-clad fleets of the world. Dr. Reed of Tuscaloo- so, Ala., is the inventor of the rifled can- non—an invention which at once made useless all wooden navies and necessitated the construction of iron-clads. Dr. R. en- tered into partnership with Parrott of Cold Spring, New York, who got the honor of the invention, and what he, P., valued still more, the millions of money made by it. In like manner, Mr. Clemmons of Salisbury, N. C., was cheated out of the electric telegraph profits by Morse, who claimed to be a Christian man. So we think that there can be but little doubt that Rev. R. F. Goulding of-Georgia, the author of Young Marooners, is the real in- ventor of the sewing machine, The profits of none of these inventions went to the inventors, except in the case of Mr. McCormick, who inherited his fa- ther’s right to them. Dr. Reed, we be- lieve, got some $20,000 out of the hun- dreds of thousands made by his associate. John Gill got nothing from the Colts. General Rains, Mr. Clemmons and My. Goulding, made not a dollar by their in- ventions.—Southern Home. ——_~- po —___— A Conductor's Trials,—All railroad-con- ductors have their trials, but the best way to take them is to be angry and sin not, like Conductor Troy, the other day,.on the North Carolina read. A dyspeptic look- ing lady got aboard, and she had no tick- et. -When she paid her fair she demurred to the extra i curl of her lip, “I hardly suppose the railroad will ever see. it,” like a willow, and replied with the bland- est'smile that, yes, he was poor and work- ed hard for a living, and it became. him te make a dime whenever he could: and with that he swallowed his wrath and set down as noislessly as a piece of sunshine. The dyspeptic woman thought better of it af- ter a bit, and went to Troy and apologiz- ed for her hasty speech. A: soft. answer off the trees as leaves. They are wallting | oe and remarked with a}!

Every night Mark would teal two or three mince pies and eat them entire without giving Dan a sight at them. In the morning the landlady would be | brushing about near the door, Dan would be asleep and Mark would open out ina loud voice as follows: eae “Dan, this business won't do. “Those pies don’t belong to you. In the first place it’s petty larceny, and then, in the next-place, it gets crumbs in the bed, "Taint the square thing on the landlady. I don’t wonder you’ve nothing to say. Now this is the last time I propose to speak about this matter.” a The landlady, who took in every word would give Dan notice te quit and never hear a word of explanation. “Well, | go, I go, Dan,” Mark would say, and hi F brotherly, fidelity touched Dan to the core. The next place was an intensely respectable private family. When he ex- pected to be out at night he would slip up to the room and strew a few hairpins around promiscuously, and scatter a few down in the foot of the bed, where th would be found when the making it up. It would all be lai Dan, of course. “I’ve gota iy ‘ and want to bring my daughters % >. pectable,” would be the landlady’s. mark, as she ordered Dan to pack up. ‘‘When they fire you out, Dan, it means me, too,” Mark would say in’ tonés”« brotherly affection that melted ‘Dan's “in- ner nature and caused him to think there were some true men in the world : and he used often to remark, in of Twain, “A man who never kes a friend in adversity is the noblest : of God.” sian on OLD MAN.

No one, fiowever, ever expected full deliverance from business embarrassments thrqugh the election of a President. ‘(Put not your trast in princes” is a good lesson which wise people have all learned. And yet the depressing weight of a great public wrong like this is undeniable and una- voidable, and the aythors of it ought to be held to a rigid accountability, “Phe moral effect of counting in Hayes by perjured Returning Boards is frightful to contemplate. It is an open proclama- tion fram the seat of supreme power in favor of the most heinous crimes. Shall they compel the citizen to obey laws which they break in the face of an aston- ished nation! Are such exemplars to be ptir judges! But wickedness in high places jg no new thing. It is an abomination which the people have been taught to hate ‘and they will never rest until they drive it out.

The receiver of sto- Jen, goods, knowing them to be stolen, stands on the same level with the thief.

Upon motion of Mr, Crawford the rules were suspended and the bill was put upon and passed its third and final reading. Mr. Graham moved to reconsider the vote by which’ the bill passed its third reading, and tolay that motion on the ta- ble. The question being on the motion to table, it was adopted. This is a loan of $15,000 for which the State takes ‘a mortgage on all the effects of the Society.” We are rather sorry our Senator, Mr. Crawford, was so forward in this business. He will find ita pretty steep job to convince his constituents of Rowan and Davie counties that this was a measure in the interest of the farmer. As a class they never took much interest in the Western N. C, Fair, and it would be somewhat difficult to show that they have been benefited by it. If sub- mitted to them they would kill this little project.—If the State Fair could not live under the management of a private com- pany, is it not likely to become an annual State charge? As heretofore managed the Fairs in this State have promoted horse racing and gambling and perhaps have contributed some little to advance agriculture. Mr. Ezexie Myers, recently convicted at Richmond, Va., of some charge in vio- lation of the Revenue laws, nas been par- doned by the President, and has returned to hia home in Petersburg. We are glad to make thia announcement, for after many years of acquaintance with Mr. Myers, in all of which he proved him- self a high-toned, fair and liberal man, his conviction of crime was as much a gubject cf gurprise as of regret, The case is fully relieved by the following from the Norfolk Virginian, which evidently speaks from a knowledge of the facts ; “Mr. Ezekiel Myers, who was some time ago convicted hefore the United States Court of technical violation of the revenue laws has been pardoned by the President. This case was one of the most trival and unwarranted that waa ever brought before an intelligent tribunal; and had jt not been for the malicious pros- ecution of a few radical boot licks, negro witnesses, and selfish money seekers, Mr. Myers would have long ago been cloared of the charge. The Petersburg Post saqys that Mr. Myers was released, and on Thursday evening returned to Petersburg, and adds : “We are satisfied that the action of the President in this matter gives universal satisfaction to men of gll parties in our city.” ‘ ; i sn The Great Boa,-The telegraphic des- patches of yesterday morning brought the news that the Grand Commission had counted South Carolina for Hayes.

Verily we have seen worse times than these.—Raleigh Observer. Orn THE SOUTH AND FEDERAL PATRONAGE. The people of the South are long-suff- ering, and even as they have endured in the past, so they can continue to endure to the end the open assaults of their ad- versaries, But in the name of all that is honorable, we enter an earnest protest against the recent insidious approaches of pretended neutrals and self-styled moder- ate Republicans. Assuming that Mr. Hayes has only to offer the glittering bait of office to a few “old Whigs,” and he will at once build up a streng, white adminis- the probability of such action upon his part seemingly with no sense of the dishonor involved, Let President Hayes, they say, cut loose from the earpet-baggers, and native thieves who have made the word Republican stink in the nostrils of the South, and let him seek out good men from the old Whigs, who will rally to the support of his ad- ministration. The man who receives the office of President from the soiled hands of McLinn, of Florida, and Wells, of Louisiana, is advised to desert the men who for him betrayed their States. He is urged to propose to the men whose dear- est rights his minions have trampled in the dust, to buy their silence with the paltry gift of office. The thief dares to offer to share his plander with the men he has robbed of their birthrights. .The peo- ple of the Southern States are poor, and here and there Mr. Hayes may find his man. Wives and children must be fed, and as men have fatten heretofore, so men will fatten again, and will barter their henor for the mess of pottage. But the recreant will take no following with him into the hostile ranks. The base ingrati- tude which proposes to use corrupt means to acquire office, and then affect to disown them, will give Mr. Hayes no additional cInim upon the people of the South. We do not anticipate that the proscrip- tive policy of the Republican party toward the South will continue ; but it will cease beeause Mr. Hayes is not strong enough, nor secure enough in his seat, to continue it. We do not forget his hypocritical ut- terance when it was thought impossible to defraud Mr. Tilden out of the Presidency, that his only regret was for the poor ne- groes—presumably because they were at the mercy of the Southern ruffians. These same men who could not be trusted with the negroes, are pow to be given the bribes of office, {f they will only fall down and worship’ We are to look therefore among such old Whigs as Vance and George Davis and Ashe and Fowle and Carter and Leach and Davis and Waddell and Yeates and Shober, and a hundred more, for the new pillars of the administration! When these men can be had for such purpose, we shall be almost ready to despair of the country. The true men of the South will not link their political fortunes with fraud. The offices in the gift of Hayes had better be parcelled out among the Keoghs and Settles, the Tourgees and Youngs, who fought under his flag, and who now up- hod the false count which gives him the seat of Washington.—Ja/eigh Observer. Well said. ——~<—as__—_—_. “Tntolerable, but Not Actionable.” A learned judge in England recently decided on a question of nuisance which came before him that “the alleged nui- sance was not an actionable oue, although he considered it intolerable.’ This na- tive decisic a has now found its parallel in the decision of the Electoral Commission upon the Florida and Loujsiana cases. “Intolerable but not actionable,” The returning boards are 9 diagrace to the country, a atench in the naatrils of poli- ties, a danger to freedom, intolerable to the Constitution, but the Republican par- ty can see no remedy against them. A party which hag no power to ahate 4 nuix sance within ita own ranks shauld ask to have its epitaph written.

One thing is manifest, it can do the country no good —it will certainly do the South and the Democratic party great harm. Our friends from the South stand before the country as the conservatire power in Congress and they will justify us in the future conflicts that will surely come. This is not our last opportunity—the future may be ours. Let us not now by rash action destroy or impair our prospects of future success. The Republican party, by taking unjust, dishonest, outrageous and monstrous ad- vantage of more than questionable power, are bringing on themselves certain de- struction. “The view I have expressed is my own, and I believe that a large majority of our political associates take a like view of the i ty in the South, they discuss|". : , : — inten: y Fsituation. You may be sure that nothing will be left undone to defeat the purposes of the adversary that we ought to do, but we hope to live after this occasion. “There is a deep feeling here, but I do not apprehend any outbreak.

His Excellency, the President of the United States, having ordered that the white militia companies of the State should not parade on the 22d inst., to celebrate Washington's birthday, in deference to the office he holds I call upon these or- ganizatious to postpone to some future day this manifestation of their respect to the memory of that illustrious President, whose highest ambition it was, as it was his chief glory, to observe the Constitu- tion and to obey the laws of the country. If the arbitrary commands of a Chief Ex- ecutive, who has not sought to emulate the virtues of Washington, deprives the citizens of this State of the privilege of joining publicly in paying reverence to that day so sacred to every American patriot, we can at least show by our obe- dience to the constituted authority, how- ever arbitrarly exercised, that we are not unworthy to be the countrymen of Washington. We must therefore remit to some more auspicious period, which I trust is not far distant, the exercise of our right to commemorate the civic virtues of that unsullied character who wielded his sword only to found and perpetuate that American constitutional liberty which is now denied to the citizens of South Caro- lina. WapbeE Hampton, Governor. -_— «oo —-_——- ON THE WATCH. Let Mr. Hayes beware. A powerful opposition will meet him everywhere, dog his steps, cross his pathway at unguarded moments, hang on his flanks, ‘shoot him on the spot,” a la Dix, and do everything in its power to make his Stolen Adminis- tration anything but a bed of roses. . Mr. Hayes has waked up the mastiff spirit in the Deniocracy. All his soft words end honied smiles will avail nothing. The sueak-thief manner of coming by his posi- tion has so outraged the people that it will require more than the wiles of the “Artful Dodger” to revoncile them to his official acts. The situation is by no means as gloomy as some of our party press represent. The Democratic party occupies a high moral vantage ground. It out numbers the ene- my who is guiltily conscious of the means by which the Presidency waa captured. Let it watch and when the time comes it can take its revenge. Time itself must bring our revenges. The duty of our leaders is to be exceedingly sagacious in every move, to compromise no principle, and to hit when the right moment arrives. Francis of France, after Pavia, wrote to his sister the Duchess of Alencon that all was lost save honor. Not so with the Democratic party. We have saved honor not only, butalso the “emblements” of vic- tory, to use a lega] term. We have not housed these fruits of our labor yet, but if we are not worse than fools we will garner them by-and-by.~ Wil, Journal. —_——___ ~aa>er————— Hon.

Its effect upon our own peo- ple would be to attract investments from among our own citizens and divert the hoardings of their earnings te useful en- terprises at home. Its effect elsewhere would be to attract manufactures from abroad, over-crowded at home and crip- pled by sharp competition, to this State where the usual consequences would fol- low—the stimulation of all industries, the increase of population, the encouragement of agriculture by the provision of near and good markets, the diffusion of money, the increase of subjects of taxation, the enhancement of State revenue, and the diminution of the burden of taxation upon the many. —__—_~-ao——_— The Hayes Inaugural—Policy Towards the South. (Special dispatch co the Baltimore Sun.) WasuinoTon, Feb. 20.—Intimate friends of Gov. Hayes says that his inaugural ad- dress will be so moderate and conserva- tive in tone and policy that, barring the popular distrust, engendered by the pe- culiar circumstances of his accession to the Presidency, it is sure to be received with favor. It is said that the sentiments which he will express concerning the affairs of the Southern States will be par- ticularly pleasing to this section; that his policy will be a reversal of the Southern policy of the present administration; that he will allow the people of the Southern States to manage their own internal affairs just asthe people of the other States of the Union do, subject, of course, to the constitution and the laws of the United ‘States, and guaranteeing that the individ- ual rights of the citizens shall be equally respected and preserved. This is all very well, but when aman takes an office to which he knows he is not entitled, the people can have little confidence in the sincerity of his professions, and must judge him according to his acts. —_—————-<.o——_—_——_—— AGRICULTURE. The General Assembly has taken up the subject of Agriculture with the ap- parent determination of doing something of real value to promote this great pri- mary source of wealth. It is sincerely to be hoped that they may succeed. The Raleigh Observer of yesterday speaks of it thus: The bill now before the Legislature, and which is the special order for to-day at 11 o'clock in the Senate, directs that the chief officer of the department shall be an ‘“agriculturist.”. The work assigned. to the department is very comprehensive, and we fear too great, for the means ap- propriated to its execution. It embraces an analysis of all the fertilizers sold in the State ; a study of all insects injurious to cultivated plants; of the fungi, which in form of rust, mildew, &e., disappoint the husbandman’s hopes; of drainage and ir- rigation; of sheep husbandry and such measures as shall encourage this industry; diseases of cattle; fencing; fostering new agricultural industries; fish culture (it shall at once provide for stocking all the available waters of the State); collection of agricultural statistics; establishes an experimental station at Chapel Hill where the ae of fertilizers shall be made and shall carry on such iny ions as the department shall direct, make regular reports of analyses and experiments which shall be published for general in- formation. The Geological Department shall con- stitute a co-operative department and sball aid in promoting immigration ; pre- pare a hand-book showing the attractions and advan the State affords to im- migrants; all domestic sources of fertiliz- ing, formulas for composting, &c.;a reg- ister of the lands for sale in the State be entered on payment of $1; and, not to be further tedious, the department has power to investigate any subject which affects agriculture, horticulture, dairy and stock raising. —_—.-_—_~+>-——————— Ashe and Davis, of North Carolina, are classed among the fifty-seven ‘‘irrecon- cilables.”—Greenaboro North State.

()————- — There were three persons baptised in ony town creek last Sunday evening. There were about seven hundred specta- tors to the scene. For the good of the Spectators, these baptisings ought to be Private, and if not private, on some other day than the Sabbath ; for the great ma- Jority that attend these places, do so ‘‘for the fun of the thing,” as they express it, and not in the right spirit. Vv SCHOOL EXHIBITION. A very pleasant occasion came off at St. Luke's Academy, 9 miles South, on Saturday last, which attracted all the Reighbors and friends and offered them a day of delightful entertainment. Ad- dresses were delivered, during the day by Mr. D, Earnhardt, Mr. J. 8, Miller and A. E. Miller. Rev. P. M.

Owen requested us to an- nounce that on Friday night the 9th, of march, at Third Oreek, in Grange Hall, the fence law question will be discussed. He says furthermore that Poston of Iredell, and other good talkers will be there aud he wishes all who wish to say anything on the subject to be present. There will be no restriction ou any one, they go there to discuss thé question fully and freely and nothing in the way of “limiting” will be tolerated. We return thanks for a kind invitation to be present and if con- venient at the time will certainly go; for we want to get the opinions of the leading countrymen in this section on this sub- ject. The subject is being agitated by “all you sage counselors” now spending the winter in Raleigh. _ o_O -——_ Religious.—There was ‘‘a cluster” meet- ing of Presbyterian deacons, elders and pastors at Mocksville on Monday and Tuesday of this week. The churches of Mocksville, Salisbury, Unity and Third Creek were represented. Prof. Sterling read an interesting essay on the office of elder, and T. F. Kluttz one on the office of deacons. We have heard Professor Sterling’s almost unsurpassed essay, and that of Mr. Kluttz we have heard highly spoken of. The meeting was a very in- teresting and profitable one, and the new system of which it is a part promises well in good results. The big American eagle is dead. He had a hard time of it. His disease was gradual consumption.

Such an association can be easily formed and suc- cessfully worked. I suppose that at least fifty subscribers can be obtained to start with. Suppose that each one of these pays in one dollar as an admission fee, and afterwards, say fifty cents every month, the whole to be devoted to the purchase of books, periodicals, &c. This would give the association fifty dollars ir mi _—_~4po——— - THE SOUTH. Better times are surely coming, for it seems that the Radical party, whose de- light it has been to villify and abuse the South for the last ten years, is determined to stop their insults and oppressions, and pursue a different policy, Hear what the National Republican, Grant’s kitchen or- gan, has to say: the North and South apart, but every- thing to counsel union and harmony. And there will be no permanent prosper- ity for the country until such counsels prevail. Nor is there any reason why the Republican party shall not embrace as the inhabitants of the South as the Dem- ocratic party. And we know that when this is the case, there will be no more in- timidation of the colored people, no more sectional strite. If the colored people shall then care to vote, they will divide, as in the case of the humbler classes of the North, with those with whom they are identified in interest, some voting with one party and some with the other. The existence at the South of two equally re- spectable parties will correct this and all other evils growing out of the changed condition of the colored population.” }V’[’ —-—-_ ~._-___ --— Maj. F.

The expenses need, for some time at least, be nothing. A good book case, under place, to be opened twice a week for the getting and returning of books, would be all that would be required. By a little effort, I believe that one hundred subseri- bers could be obtained on the ebove terms, which would give for the first twelve books, &c. Surely this is not only amost desirable, but a perfectly practicable scheme. T. ¥. K. — a Mr. Editor :— Will you permit one deeply interested in the scheme proposed for providing pleasant and profitavle reading for the com- munity to patina word? There are many plain practical persons whose young days were «pent without facilities for reading—save those offered by aa occasional pewspaper or the year- ly almanac. Those having never felt the crav- ing for mental food which is 60 intense, now-a- days athong young people, are not disposed to trouble themselves about satisfying their appe- tite. They may allow that persona ought to read, but it must be what they call “improving books,” which generally means, with them, “history.” Now to the must of people “hiv- tory” recalls certain ill-favored, dry treatises, chopped up into short paragraphs, bristling with statistics, peppered with dates, and telling ‘of the manceuvres of generals wilh their armies when carrying out the plots of prime ministers, as directed by the intrigues at the seat of gov- ernment. These books are used during school days, and remain on the shelves in good order, as long as a family holds together, and if pa- rents think such reading can please and profit, I ean only say—-‘‘let them try it themselves!” History can be and often is, made interesting, but it is by writers of high order of talent, who produce volumes tar out of the reach of those whose limited means require the exercise of the closest economy. Generally speaking, our young people (in whose behalf I am writing) read entirely too many novels, but that is just becanse it is the best they can do, they are the only books they can get. Novels are “cheap” — which is the highest praise of almost everything in these days. If really interesting books, were attainable—histories, biographies travels, etc., [ am very sure that the mental tone of our young people would be stimulated and im- proved. As to excluding works of fiction from a public library, far be it fram me to hint at such a step. The love of fiction is a part of our nature, just as is the desire for sweets, and it is only proposed to restrain and regulate its excessive indulgence. The greatest of all Teachers knew man’s natare in perfeetion, and when training those who were to influence hu- man intellect in all ages, He utilized this tendency throughout his whole earthly ca- reer. “Without a parable spake He not un- to them.” Now I would ask those parents who are not above the delight of seeing their children ex- cel them in mental acquirmenta, to consider this matter in the light of needful providing for the true welfare of those dependent on them.

They propose to compromise at 40 cents on the dollar of the ante- war debt, and at 30 cents on the debt constracted since. This would give the State about $2,000,000 to pay or perhaps not more than $6,500,000, principal and interest.

BRUNER, SUBSCRIPTION RATES : orks - From Ral. Observer. SHEEP HUSBANDRY. The Convention in the act providing "forthe establishment of a Department of ure also directs that the General Assembly shall “enact laws for the ade- quate protection and encouragement of sheep husbandry.” In order to carry out this last provision there are now severa] bills before the Legislature. As the mat- ter is one of great interest to a large num- ber of the citizens of this State the follow- ing facts collected mostly fren the reports of the Department of Agriculture in Geor- gia are presented this morning in as con- densed a forni as possible. The average annual profit on capital in- vested in sheep is 63 per cent.—a marked difference between the profit of sheep rais- ing and cotton growing. The average cost of keeping sheep is 54 cents per head per annum. The average cost of raising wool is six cents per pound. The average yield of unwashed wool to the sheep is 3.44 pounds. The average clear income in wool per sheep is 94 cents. Ninety per cent of the correspondents report dogs the principal and generally the only obstacle to making sheep husbandry a success. There are 99,- 415 dogs in Georgia who destroyed in one year 28,625 sheep, valued at $73,- 852. Ninety-eight per cent. of those who have tested crosses in Georgia, report the merino and native as the most pro- fitable, being healthy and free from dis- eases. One hundred sheep, regularly folded, will fertilize so as to double the yield of the crop on eight acres a year. Estima- ting the number of sheep in this State at 250,000, this will double the crop on 20,- 000 acres, and if these be planted in cot- ton will give an increase of 10,000 bales, equal to $500,000, at $50 per bale. A sod of Bermuda grass (closely resem- bling our wire grass) on lands unprofita- ble for cultivation, will support five sheep to the acre for nine months in the year. Bermuda grass will grow on almost any land, and if Bermuda and wire grass were properly utilized for summer pasture, small grain used for pasture during win- ter, and a supply of turnips for spring, North Carolina could sustain 4,000,000 sheep, thereby largely increasing her agricaltural products by converting much wasting vegetable matter into a supe- rior fertilizer worth several million dol- lars. Labor is the vexed question which stands in the way of the golution of every other problem in Southern agriculture. At present all the marketable products of Southern farms are made by the employ- ment of expensive human muscle. Under existing circumstances neither brains nor capital, nor both combined, can sufficient- ly control labor to render it either relia- ble or profitable ; the large introduction of sheep as laborers or manufacturers of wool or manure, will, to a great extent, diminish the demand for human labor, and increase its efficiency by bringing it under better control. One great difficulty of agriculture in this State is the fuct that the product of a considerable portion of the land in cul- tivation does not pay the cost of cultiva- tion ; all such lands can be made’ profitable aad gradually improved by converting them into sheep pastures. Sheep hus- bandry offers a wide field of usefulness, independence, and profit, and thousands of acres of land now idle and an expense to their owners-will be rendered profita- ble if the proper encouragement be given to this great industry. The following bill has been reported to the Senate from the committee on Agri- culture, Mechanics, Mines, etc., with re- commendation that it pass : “A But To BE ENTITLED AN ACT FOR Tae Berrer Prorecrion or Suyeer ‘Hv'spanpry ; The General Assembly of North Carolina da enate : “Section 1.

Sheep can be 7 on worn out abandoned lands, care” bei taken not These pustures soon show a new life, and, in an incredi, bly short space of time, become recupera- ted. The we ever saw were raised on an old sheep pasture, without further fertilization. The care necessary to the successful raising of sheep is not extreme. Any la- bor connected therewith is extremely light, except, perhaps, the few days of shearing. This is somewhat laborious to the “green hand,” but a little practice soon makes the task a. pleasurable one. Sheep soon learn their keepers, and if they are properly tanght, they love and obey them. We know of no more beau- tiful sight than to see a flock gathering around their kéeper, anxious to receive attention from his hand without exhibit- ing the slightest fear. We can not again too strongly urge our farmers to keep at least a few sheep. We will not insist that they shall be of the fancy varieties, though there is doubtless more actual profit from one of the improv- ed breeds than from five common ones. But the common are better than none, and when the farmer has become satisfied that it will be « profitable investment, he he can add a pure-bred ram and increase | the value and actual profit of his flock fully one hundred per cent. We need this kind of stock upon our cotton killed lands. We must have some- thing of the kind to prevent large tracts from becoming almost literally deserts. Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and other cotton States can raise sheep as well and as profitably as Texas. Our cli- mate is superior, and our markets are near our own doors. Wool can be raised cheaper than cotton, and as both are in request throughout the civilized world, why may we not take advantage of the demand and profit accordingly ?—[Son of Soil.] —-- SAGACITY OF THE HORSE. os 7 ~ oe , : ae af bene) oo a, Lure ing Bayard Taylor has an article in the At- lantic Monthly on animals, from which we take some anecdotes relating to the horse :— It is a very common observation of per- sons who own intelligent dogs, that if they happen to describe to a vistor some faujt for which the animal has been sco!d- ed or punished, in the latter’s presence, he will exhibit an uneasy consciousness of what issaid, even sometimes quietly slink away. But the extent to which a horse, also, may be taught to understand speech, is not so generally known. Thesim- ple fact that he likes to be talked to makes him attentive to the sounds, and I am convinced that in a great many cases he has an impression of meaning. I have at present a horse who served his country during the war, and came to me only af- ter its close. His experience while on scounting service made him very suspic- ious of any gray object, as I soon discov- ered ; he would shy at a fallen log in a thicket a glimpse of mossy rock, or a laborer’s coat left in a fence-corner. By stopping him whenever this happened, and telling him, in an assuring tone, that there was nothing to fear, he was very soon completely cured of the habit. But he still lifts up his head, and would, if he could, ery “Ha!” ha!” when he hears the sound of the trumpet. I have a horse who is now not less than 41 years old, and it is possible that he is a year or two older, for 38 years ago he was broken to use. He is at present on the retired list, only occasionally being called upon to lend a helping shoulder to his younger colleague; but his intellect is as fresh and as full of expedients as ever. No horse ever knew better how to save himself, to spare effort and prolong his powers ; no one was ever so cunning to slip his halter, open the feed-box, and supply phosphates, the necessity of which to him he knew as well as any “scientist.” Ihave seen him through a crack in a board shanty used while the stable was building, lift and lay aside with his teeth six boxes which were piled atop of one another, until he found the oats at the bot- tom. Then, when my head appeared at the window, he instantly gave up his leisurely, luxurious munching of the grain, opened his jaws to their fullest extent, thrust his muzzle deep into the box, and gravely walked back to his stall with at least a quart of oats jn his mouth. This horse had a playful habit of snap- ping at my arm when he was harnessed for a drive, (I always talk to a horse be- fore starting, as a matter of common politeness.) Of course I never flinched, and his teeth often grazed my sleeve as he struck them together. One day, more than a dozen years ago, he was in rather reckless spirits and snapped a little too vigorously, catching my arm actually in his jaws, I scarcely felt the bite, but I was very much surprised. The horse, however, showed such unmistakable signs of regret and distress, that I simply said, “Never do that again!” And he never did! From that moment, he gave up the habit of years; he laid back his ears, or ces,” |had been lost. a i appro nies Sa hala ap his right foot, and I saw. that the shoe “That's, right,” said 1; “you shall have @ now shoe as soon ag we get tothe villagn” He eet down hia foot, and fora moment satisfied. Then the same turning of the head and twisting of the body were repeated. ‘What, Ben is anything else the matter ?” 1. asked. He now lifted up the left hind foot, which waa.still shod. .I was quite at loss to un- derstand him, and remained silent. He looked back at me out of the corner of his eye, and evidently saw that I was puzzled, whereupon he set down his foot and seem- ed to think. Almost immediately he lift- ed it up again, and shook it vigorously. The loose shoe rattled! There was a positive process of reasoning in this act, and is too simple and clear to be inter- preted in any other way. ie | a ns THE WAY LIFE INSURANCE COM- PANIES CHEAT THE WEST AND SOUTH. Our readers know that we never had much confidence in Life Insurance Com- panies, and as many of them are failing, we copy the following article showing how some of the Yankee Companies have fooled Policy-holders in the South and West :—Char. Democrat. (From the New York World, Feb. 13th. Before Referee Butler yesterday, in the Continental Life examination, S. U. Ham- mond, ex-agent for the Company, living in Cincinnati, testified : : “Mr. L. W. Frost, (President of the Continental) was in California with me, remaining there about three months; I went there in September, 1875, and _ re- maived until February, 1876; when Mr. Frost went there in October, 1875, I was instructed to buy up all the outstanding risks of the Continental; I had received from Mr. Frost a list, and succeeded in buying nearly all of them, and inducing some of the other holders to take out new policies; I paid in orders upon Il. H. Blake, the coast agent of the Co.” “What inducement to sell did you hold to the policy-holders ?” asked Mr. Moses. “TI told them the Company was insol- vent—those were my instructions from Mr. Frost ; Mr. Frost told me that the Com- pany was in great need of money; that many of the policies on the Pacitic coast would be due in about two years, and they would be unable to pay them; as an illustration permit me to cite a case; a party holds an endowment policy of the Continental Life Insurance Company ; that policy, from the time it was drawn out, has increased in value, so that now it is worth about $3,000; in two years more it will be worth $5,000; well, if I represent to the person holding the policy that the Continental is insolvent he will, in all probability, accept my offer for a release—$100 or $200; the Continental thus saves nearly the entire amonnt that they would have to pay when the policy would beeome due—$4,800, for instance, out of $5,000. If they would not sell, I ex- changed ‘time’ policies for ‘endowments.’ A ‘time policy’ is one that is drawn out for tweuty years. During the first ten years it steadily increases in value, while during the last ten years it as steadily de- creases. My instructions were, if I could do no better than to secure a consent to an exchange, to give the policy-holder a ‘time policy,’ without telling him what the transaction amounted to. The limit that he was allowed to pay on a policy, Mr. Hammoud said, im accordance with Mr. Frost’s instructions, was 50 per cent of the reserve due, but this he did rarely, very often paying much less thanthat. For his services he got 85,000 a year and ex- penses and a commission of 10 per cent, making between $20,000 and $40,000.” “Did Mr. Frost ever tell you how much he made out of this ?” “Well, he used to come to my office and say: ‘The Company made so much to- day.’ I recollect on one day, when he had made that remark, fer he made it on different oceasions, turning to him and asking him, ‘Who is the Company ? He laughed and replied, ‘Oh! myself and my associates,’ or words similar in meaning. I was merely an Agent of the Campany, and obliged consequently to do whatever I was requested to do. It scared the peo- ple terribly. I knew the announcement would create a panic among the policy- holders of the Continental, and so it did; and I knew at the time that the Company was perfectly solvent, because Mr. Frost assured me that all he wanted to do was to relieve the Continental of some of the risks outstanding against it. The amount of risks extinguished in California by this plan was fully $2,000,000. Nearly all the policies were drawn in favor of married women, and had to be signed by them be- fore | would give an order for the amount. I never saw the persons in whose favor the policies were drawn, but only the persons who had drawn the policies. These lat- ter I induced to bring the policy to the former for their signatures. I knew this latter course was contrary to the law, but didn’t stop to considerthat point. I work- ed to get the policies any way and every way, and I got them. Mr. Blake objected to er up the policies on account of the small sum which I offered for them, but after a private conversation with Mr. Frost he entered enthusiastically into the work,” Mr. Hammond also stated that the value of the policies when he first undertook to buy them up, July, 1874, amounted to more than $2,000, and snueceeded in pulling it down to $600,000, the Continen- tal thereby saving $1,500,000. ‘The panic which followed his announcement to the Southern policy-helders of the Continen- tal, Mr. stated, was terrible. On all sides curses and imprecatious were hurled against the Continental. The Sean of Alabama had shortly be- dismissed the t of the Company anger in other ways, but he never | then came out in from the State, and f27* See I a ata cic ia eeal eto ee te a ae Peat of the officers of the to send him through the in. January of the present » aintrnerdil HISTORY OF WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA. A correspondent, Rev. E. F. Rockwell, of the Statesville American, says : “Dr. J. @. Ramsey, of Tenn., who was a refugee in Mecklenburg during the war, says, in a letter to acitizen of this county, a relative of the late Rev. R. H. King, who wasa native of this county, and died in Tennessée in 1825.” “Mr. King wrote some for the periodical press; and I have seen a large body of manuscript sheets, upon the history of Western North Carolina, especially upon the Catawba Indians. These were left with his brother Sainuel King, Senator from Iredell, mem- ber of lower house of North Carolina Leg- islature nine times, Senator in 1826, and died August 1840.

On being questioned as to his business, he ed ,— ~~ ie lést my mother, ‘and as thton piace used to be her home, and as my | ae Ties — we have come im her | peside him.” Our heart rose jn sympatl “You have met-with & ” said, losa. with hesitancy, “y mother is.a great los in general; but, our mother had outlived‘ her usefulness.

But I have had more than my share of her, for she was too feeble to be mov my time WAS ON, and that was more than three months before her death. But then she was a good mother in her day, and | toiled very Gard to bring us up.” Without looking at the fave of the heart- less man, we directed him to the house of | a neighboring pastor and returned to our ed Ww hen | nursery. We gazed on the merry little faces which smiled or grew sad in imitation of ours, those little ones to whose ear no word in our language is half so sweet as “mother,” and we wondered if that day could ever come when they would say of us, “She has outlived her usefulness— she is no comfort to herself and a burden Ao every body glse!” and we » hoped that before such a day would dawn we might be taken to our rest. God forbid, that we should outlive the love of our children! Rather let us die while our Rearts area part of their own, that our graye may be wate red with their tears and our love linked with their hopes of heaven. When the bell telled for the mother’s sanctuary to pay aged yive ” burial we went to the our only token of respect to the stranger; for we felt that we cou! ta ; her’memory ateur, even though her own children had none to shed. “She was a good mother in her day, was no comfort to herse “if and a burden | to every body else !” These cruel, our cars as we saw the coffin borne up the aisle. ‘Fhe bell tolled long and loud, un- til its tongue had chronicled cighty-nine —the years of the toil-worn mother. There she Jics now in the coffin, cold and still_she makes no trouble now, de- mands ne love, no soft words, no tender little offiees. A look of patient endurance, we fancied also an expression of grief for unrequited léye, sat on her marble fea- tures. Ber children were there, clad in weeds of woe, and in an irony we remem- bered the strong man’s words, “She was a good mother in her day.” When the bell ceased tolling the strange minister rose in the pulpit. His form was very erect, and his voice strong, but his hair was silvery white, He read several passages of Scripture expressiv@of God’s compassion to treble man, and espegially, of His tenderness when gray hairs are on him, and strength faileth. He then made some touching re- marks on human frailty, and on depend- ence upon God, urging all present to make their peaee with their Master while in health, fhat they might claim His prom- ises whet heart and flesh fuiled them. “Then,” hewaid, ‘the eternal God shall be thy refuge, and beneath thee shall be the everlasting arms.” Leaning over the desk, and gazing in- tently on the coffined form before him, he themeasid;reverently, “From a little child I have honored the aged; but never till gray hairs covered my did I know truly how much love and sympathy this class havd A right to demand of their fellow creatures. Now I feel it.” “Our mother,” he added, most tenderly, “who now lies in death before us, was a stranger to me, as are all of these, her descendants. <All I know of her ts what her son has told me to-day—-that she was brought to this town from afar, sixty-nine years ago, ® happy... bride -that ere she passed the most of her lite, toiling, as only mothers ever have strength to toil, uatil she had reared a large family of sons and daughters—that she left her home here, clad in the weeds of widowhood, to dwell among ler children; and that till health and strength left her. “God forbid that conscience shonld ac- ense any of you of ingratitude or murmur- ings on account of the care she has been to you of late.

A correspdéndent of the Detroit Free Press states that the fishermen on Sagiuaw Bay have erected a good-sized town of shanties far out on the iee. are of thin wood, The dwellings lined with thich bnild iy paper, and are attaclied to rammers so sto be movable from place to place. The town already boasts a hotel. From this strneture, whieh fs larger than any of the dwellings, the view fs very aston- | the bay in all direetions. The number is now about 300, and about 90 are arriving and being put up daily. The average number of occupants in each shanty is three men or wen and boys, thus making, including the larger buildings and their occupants, not less than 1,000 persons al- ready living on the iee. There probably will be twice the muaher on the ice by | the first of February, and they can reuiain there in safety until the middle of March. Teams are constantly engaged in gather- ing together and hauling the fish thus the men, who fish through holes in the ice, to Bay City, whence they are shipped to all parts of the State. That all these people find it sufficiently profit- able to induce them to brave and hardships attending this adventurous life, is proof that thé aggregate revenue of the business must be quite large. by the perils ~_- ——— Fifty year’ ago Rhere was a padi sation called ‘The Geod Masi rs Book.

Hart on Sayee_-Provien of the, Arsty Wasuincrox, March 2—4:5 a x. Hovse.—After the vote to count Sol- lace’s Randal announced that the chair allowed every legitimate legis- lative motion. The duty to notify tho Senate of the decision is mandatory. Several re. were overruled, when Cox said, is no use endeavor- - | ing to prevent the Speaker from counting in Hayes at dnee, The Speaker said gentlemen must not object, The chair has no authority to re- ceive pny motion, Atl] the Senate entered, and Vernal was counted for Hayes, and Virginia and West Virginian for Tilden, and finally, after separation, and two hours discussion Wisconsin was counted for Hayes. At half past four Mr. Ferry said: This con- eludes the countof 38 States. The tellers and deliver the result. Senator Allison, one of the tellers declar- ed the vote, Rutherford B. Hayes 185, Samuel J. Tilden 184. Wherefore I an- nounce Hayes and Wheeler duly elected President and Vice-President for four years commencing March 4th, 1877. There was a solitary lifsa and the Senate retired. The House adjourned and the flag was lowered for the fisst time since Fobruary T3th. Hayes arrived at nine o'clock. Senator John Sherman, carried Hayes to his home. No one spema glad. There are no oheer- fal. congratulations, those who do not look sorrowful appear ashamed, Na coarse of action deyelapes itaelf this morging. Fifteen Radical Senatora had @ meeting, and resolved if Hayes’ South- érm policy is against the Republican party of the Senth, they should know it, No conference committees met this The House is indisposed to take hold of business. It is occupied with the ques- tions of privileges, involving the pay of peges and door-keepers. ‘The House resolution with the extraor- turning board be discharged s0 as to as- sist the members of the commission who completed the work of the returning board in the inauguration, is pending, but will not receivo a two-thirds vote. The chances are that the returning board wil! be certified to the District Court for pun- ishment.

Against 40 no such dre made. In these 40 parishes the colored registration numbered 87,999; white registration 72,- 037, leaving a majority of ‘colored voters registered, of 15,965. These 40 parishes return 65,747 Republican votes, and 59,- 302 Democratic votes; so that in that part of the State wherein intimidation is net charged, there was a Republican major- ity of 6,353 ‘votes.’ It is not pretended that the same arguments were employed in the 40 parishes that were in the other 17, but the results are very different. . In the 17 parishes said to have been terror- ized, the colored registration was 27,209; whites 20,220 ; giving a majority of coler- ed votes of 6,948, nearly one half as large as the colored majority in all the rest of the State, but the vote in the 17 parishes as returned, showed bat 10,870 Republi- cans, and 21,123 Democrats. In the sev- enteen parishes where there was a major- ity of nearly 7,000 colored voters regis- tered, there waa a majority of 10,153 Demoeratic Votes returned. The report is signed by all the Republican Senators on the committee. Morrill, Parkard and McDonald were appointed a committee to make arrange- ments on the inaaguration. Conference report on deficiency appro- priation was adopted. West reported conference committee on postoffice appropriation unable ta agree. A new conference was ordered. upon all bet the railroad, Bradll China subsidy. The Senate committes was willing te redece the Bouwill subsidy to $30,000, but the House was wrwilling. Mr. Gordon called up the Senate bill to authorize the Secretary of.

Butler as United States Senator from South Carolina for six years from March 4th, 1877. They were signed by Wade Hampton, as Governor, and had the seal of the Btate attached, which -vere read and placed on file. The monetary committee submitted a majority and minority report, whichwas ardered to be printed. The conference committee on navel ap- propriations was unable to agree, and a new conference was ordered, Adjourned, Hovse.—A resolution to release the Louisiana returning board was defeated, the Republicans snd many Denjocrata vot- ing nay, as the preamble cantained mat- ter iusulting to Hayes. There were 18 affirmative votes. Conference reported on deficieney_ap- propriations. Adopted. The Army appropriation bill as eipies ed, contains a clause that no portiomef the appropriation will be used to support any State government by the army, te- serves distinction op account of color, and a special clause that neither the govern- ments of South Carolina apd Louisiéna shall be supported, until recognized by Congress. A motion was made to’ ens- pend the rules and pass the bill, which was agreed to, and the bill goes to the Senate. This action is regarded as equiv- alent to the success of the Hampton and Nicholls governments. The river and harbor bill was reported and failed to receive a two-thirds vote; and must take a regular course.

Honor says it, policy says it; without we drift into confusion. Our escutcheon is unstained. We can better afford to accept disappointment and de- feat than by parliamentary shifts and tricks to avoid the orderly execution of the law against. which only eighteen dem- ecrats of this Hause, anal only one in the Senate voted. Something has been, said of bargaining with the South, Xen cannot win. them ever by bribes; they, want nothing but justice. I see before me a distinguished aod cherished friend from that section, (Mr. Laxar,] a gentleman of the highest ability and unspotted integrity; honored ‘| by bis people and worthy of their trust. Eepeak not by his authority, but as his same has been mentioned in this connec- tion, I am sure+he would shrink from such ' | @eoalition as his soul would recoil from a eruel wound of dishonor.

And if they were to join with your party to sustain it im ita past and present policy, they would find theniselves political pa- riahs in the land of their’ birth.

While the gentleman from Ohio (Mr. Foster) says that “the flag shall float only over States and not provinces, over freemen and not slaves,” your Presi- dent forbids in South Carolina a peaceful celebration of the anniversary of the birth of Washington! While the gentleman from Ohio says this, your Senate on the same day, twelve years after the close of the war is refusing amnesty and your President has a pardon for every bribe- taker and every whiskey thief! “States and provinces—freemen and slaves!” What mean this language, but 2 confession on the part of the gentleman from Ohio [Mr. Foster] who represents the district of Mr. Hayes that sovereign Commonwealths have been degraded and their citizens denied their rights? Ah! well do you know the crimes yon have committed upon these State. But I must hurry on as my ten minutes are nearly gone. Inconsistency: and contradiction mark the whole course of your policy. You have scemed to try to achieve for your- selves the lament of Junius concerning a party of whom he wrote, you have given “immortality to the perishable parts of your infamy.” What a hollow mockery will be the pageant of your inauguration of your President. With this record, with the sun of truth blazing upon the iniqui- ties by which your power was obtained, this instead of being the day of your vie- tory will be the day of your death. The vials of the people’s indignation will be emptied upon you; you will hear the hisses of scorn for what you have done. The page of history will record the eternal verdict against you. Just so surely asa God of justice rules the affairs of men, just so surely will the victories of truth and justice in time prevail. Democrats, peace, courage, prudence, moderation! I implore you now to remem- ber the millions whom we represent. As I have stood here fot moderation and peace throughout this Congress, | accept to-day defeat, bitter as it is, rather than dishonor. I ‘“‘bear the ills I have rather than fly to those I know not of.” When I am asked to give my.yote to re- sist the execution of this law, my answer is, no objective point is given to which we would move that would not bring upon us confusion, anarchy, and chaos, The strength of our position is in its moral grandeur. Let us not impair this and throw away our great opportunities. Let us not take counsel of our passions. Principle, statesmanship, policy —all these command us to stand by the execution of the law we have made. We agreed to trust certain men, and they have betrayed us, To rush into revolution would be suicidal; it is madness. Be patient; the people e will rebuke the iniquities of which we complain. The day of deliverance will soon come. The anthors of misrule will call upon the mountains to fall upon them to hide them and their crimes from the sight of men. There will be no di- vided democratic party. Those who so prophesy only proclaim what they wish. Unshaken, unseduced, let us. stand for our honor, like Clan Alpine's oak, “the firmer it roots him, the ruder it blows.” {Loud applause.]} SALISEURY qt Mtg Y sz % Fiouriwne & SawIne. above Mills, respectfully solicits. the. patron- age of the citizens of Salisbury and surround- | 1s wunPay, Attorney at Law. | ont nace e Opipcielte’ Oburt onal” Salisbery, MC, arecy: Lay apt that flattering unction to Jx6: ac el -49:6w: To Jo i ie Now RESIDENT : you will 0 debe.

THE COURTSHIP: OF REV. HENRY BLAESSFORD. ROBBINS. BY MKS. 5. 3. IN FOUR CHAPTERS, —NO. II. If it is supposed that Darlington is going to accept this engagement without taking any further notice of it than that shown ly painting and papering the in- side of the parsonage, itis a mistake. The ma‘ter settled, that Faith Halstead was to Le Mrs. Henry Blakesford, their minister's wife, the two became at once town property, and, with an intensity of interest for the most part kindly, all their past, their present and their future were closely identified with the past, present and future of every man, woman and child in the parish. The antecedents of their pastor they had become familliar with at the time of but of Miss Halstead’s nor could | his settlement, they were in entire ignorance, the most adriot questioner learn more than that she had been born at the West, was an orphan, and now had only a few distant relatives living. She did not seem to incline to make the slightest difference in her way of living on aceount of her en- gagement. She went regularly to school, studied ag faithfully at home, and was no more constant or demonstrative in any of her publie religious duties. She had dou- ble the number of invitations out to tea, and accepted them as she had previously, when some of her school duties did not prevent...The most fault-finding person in Darlington could not say that she “gave herself a single air,”—that is the Way any assumption of dignity would have been characterized,—on account of her expected position; and yet, on the whole, Darlington wag not satisfied. It wanted from her something it did not re- evive. So it took suddenly to asking questions. Had Mr. Blakesford made a mistake? Did his sermons begin to show it? Did his prayers? Had he made as many parish calls since his engagement ? | Had he not exchanged more frequently ? Was he beginning to choose from among his society such persons as he would like to see frequently at the parsonage? Did he spend too much time visiting Faith Halstead ?

It might be earning it, but he eouldn’t see it, to go off Saturday with Deacon Breut’s fast mare, and be gone two hours on the stretch. But for his part a little more work put into that discourse would have made it clearer and more logical, or at least given it a fervor which would | awaken dying souls and bring them iuto | the kingdom. To all of which, Mr. Short, tin-smith, had anwered; “Wall now, brother Jones, | (they were both members of the church, aud of course brothers) you kuow our minister is a courting, and we all on us,— Tin-simith had his third wife,—remem ber, that we needed a little allowance made for ns at such times.” “Then let him go on part pay until he's | marricd,” Mr. Jones had answered. Luck- ily, however, the Rev. Henry aud his be- trothered remained iguerant of this opin- | ion, and made no offer in that direction. On the whole, considering the delicacy | and the difficulty of the situation, affairs | are not proceeding inimically for the hap- piness of the two so deeply concerned. If Faith Halstead is only let alone, Mr. Blakesford will take care of himself, he writes to his mother-aunt, to whom his weekly letters go crowded with details he can give no one else: : “I’m afraid they are so good and con- siderate of me, that there is mischief brewing. It’s too much, this unparalleled let-alone-ness, to ask of any mortal par- ish. My shoulders are broad. 1 can bear or go; but my dove,—I would not have a feather of her beautiful plumage ruffed for all the parishes in the world !” Deeply in love, you know. I confessed to you he was. Pray forgive him! Yes, there was mischief brewing, and it came at last. Faith Halstead had gone home from her school, tired and nervous; the children had been full of fun, and the lessons were, of course poorly committed. Sitting quietly in her room, waitidy for her, was Mrs. Deacon Hatch. Mrs. Hateh was the active deaconess of the church; a woman instant in every good word and deed ; grave, not a slanderer; sober, faithful in all things! This last apostolic description I am obliged to put behind an interroga- tion mark. But this is straying from my story. Mra. Hatch’s was a faded face; it afternoon So noticed in the parish that in preportion as the physical faded, the spiritual bles- somed into vew lite or to fresher aetivi- ty. Her’s had been a prominent position in the parish, President of far too many things. It don’t do, iu this democratic equalizing country, to rest the supreme power too long in one person. Unfortunately, between these two wo- men there had been, from the very first, an antagonism. Jobn Hatch, Jr., was a dies was attributed entirely to want of proper care on the teacher’s part. Polite little messages, with hidden sharp points, had been often passed between teacher and parent. So, on the whole, Faith Hal- did that come from? Wasn't it feminine fora minister, under any circumstances, to wear aring? Or, might it not be even | Worse than that—a positive sin—to set | an example of such extravagance from the | pulpit? One day Deacon Brent met his pastor in the street, and said to him : i mae, there’s my mare Black Pet. one’ t a good firm grip on the e won't be a-running away with you, and fancy a team, you may have | r any time, an welcome. It does a man A soy to spin along two-forty onee in & while, even if he is a minister, and I ain’t a mite afeard but you'll put as much | spunk into your sarmons after she's sputt you over a dozen miles or so, as you would & walkin’ roun’ town. You're welcome to T, anyway.” t And Mr. Blakesford had thanked_his fy Deacon, had wed the team, and " brought Faith i hoie’ from a tworfor spin” with eyes softer and stead was not glad te tind Mrs. Hatch waiting for her; besides, John had been the most stupidly incorrigible pupil to- | day. Faith knew, if he was spoken of, she should be apt to say what she felt. But Mrs. Hatch’s present visit was fora very different object, nor was she long in making it known. “We are to have, to-morrow,” she said, “a meeting for the purpose of electing of- ficers to fill the places in our branch of the Woman’s Board, and I called to see if we mightnot have the pleasure of appoint- ing the minister’s wife the President.” “I did not know that our minister had a wife,” said Faith, smiling benignly, but combattively ; “if he has, I should think she would be the proper person to con- sult.” *You are yary modest my dear Miss ' take. “I am extremely sorry, I must add ex- tremely grieved, my dear Miss Halstead,” without taking any noticezof Faith's re- mark. “We had hoped—indeed, I may say further, I think we have a right to demand—a different course from the wife of our minister. Mr. Blakesford is guly a young man, and/so much depends upon starting right; he has done well, I think I may add excellently well, since his settle- ment here, and we should be extremely sorry to have anything—anything inter- fere with his work.” * I hope nothing ever will} said Faith, simply. “But you must feel, Miss Ialstead, that so much depends upon the course you If you are to throw cold water on all the religious interests of the parish; if you will not take part or lot with us in these great matters” — “Excuse me, Mrs. Hatch. My answer is final. I should prefer not to discuss these things any farther.” “Good morning, then.” And Mra, Ilatch rose, in very unrighteous anger, and left the house. Was Faith Lalstead right? It’s an open question, with mneh to be said on either sige. Certain it is that the young minister looked very grave when Faith told him all that had taken place, and Mrs. Deacon Hatch lost no time in drop- ping into one house after another, where she fully recounted, with a mingling of many pious, regretful interpolations also, what had occurred. Darlington was again in arms, and questions for and against were tossed about the parish in a brisker and more combative manner than ever before. The subscription for the thor- ough repair of the parsonage, the raising of which had been entrusted to the ladics, came to a sudden close ; and a cloud rest- ed over the pleasant town, through which you could not, just now, discern a glimpse of the calm, clear sky. At this juncture, Mr. Blakesford found, on his return from an afternoon of not wholly satisfactory parish calls, that So- phronia Kipp was waiting for him. He liked Miss Kipp right heartily. Gossip she was, bat what of that ? She was alone in the world, and thia interest of hers was, for the most part, kindly. So now he gave her a warm welcome, which she re- turned by bursting into tears. Poorman, he little knew what was to come! rr OO FASHIONABLE WOMEN. Fashion kills more women than toil and sorrow. Obedience to fashion is a greater transgression of the laws of wo- man’s uature—a greater injury to her physical and mental cunstitution—than poverty and neglect. The slave womanat | her task will live and grow old, will sce two or three generations of her mistresses fade and pass away. Washerwoman, with scarce a ray of hope to cheer her in her toil, will live to see her fashionable sisters die all around her. The kitchen maid is hearty and strong when her lady has to be nursed like a sick baby. It is asad truth that the fashion-pampered women are almost worthless for all the ends of human life. They have still leas power of moral will, and quite as little of physical energy. They live for no great purpose in life ; they accomplish no worthy ends. They are only doll-forms in the hands of milliners and servants, to be dressed and fed to order. They serve no- body and they save nobody. They write no books they set no rich examples of virtue and womanly life. If they rear children, servants and nurses do all save to con- ceive and to give them birth. And when reared, wha®hre they ? What do they ever amount to bat weak scions of the old stock ? Who ever heard of a fash- ionable woman’s child exhibiting any vir- tue or power of mind for which it became eminent? Read. the biegraphies of our great and good m m and women. Not one of them had a fashionable mother. They nearly all sprang from strong-minded women, whé had about as little to do with fashion as with the changing clouds. ceded the reeent Presidential election, it seemed to me fitting that I sheuld fully make known my sentiments in regard to several of the important questions which theu appeared to demand the considera- tion of the country. Following the ex- ample and in part the language of one of my predecessors, I wish now, when every motive for misrepresentation has passed away, to repeat what I said before the e- lection, trusting that my countrymen will eandidly weigh and‘ understand it, and that they will feel assured that the senti- ments declared in accepting the nomina- tion for the Presidency will be the &tand- ard of my econdaet in the path before me, charged, as I know with the grave and dif- ficult task of carrying them out in the practical administration of the government so far as depends under the constitution and laws on the chief executive of the nation. The permanent pacification of the country upon such principles and such measures us will secure the complete pro- tection of ull its citizens in the free en- joyment of all their constitutional rights, is now the one subject in our public affairs which all thoughtfal aud patridtic citizens regard as of supreme importance. Many of the calamitous effects of the tremend- ous revolution which has passed oyer the Southern States still remain. The im- measurable benefits which will surely fol- low, svoner or later, the hearty and gen- erous acceptance of the lcgitimate results of that revolution have not yet been real- ized. Diflicult and embarrassing ques- tions meet us at the thresh-hold of this subject, the people of these States are still impoverished and the inestimable blessing of wise, honest and peaceful local self government is not fully cujoyed. What- ever difference of opinion may exist as to the fact, the cause of this condition of things is clear that in the progress of events, the time has come when such gov- ernment is the imperative necessity requir- ed by all the varied interests public and private of these States. But it must not be forgotten that only a local goyernment which recognizes and maintains inviolate the rights of all is a true self government. With respect to the two distinct races whose peculiar relations to each other have brought upon us the deplorable com- plications and perplexities which exist in those States, it must be a government which guards the interest of both races carefully and equally. It must be a gov- ernment which submits loyally and heart- ily to the constitation and the laws, the laws of the nation and the laws of the States themselves, accepting and obeyi ing faithfully the whole constitution as it is. Resting upon this sure and substantial foundation the superstructure of benefi- cient loca] governments can_ be built up, and not otherwise. In furtherance of such obedience to the letter and spirit of the constitution, and in behalf of all that its uttainn ent implies, all so-called party in- terests lose their apparent importance aud party lines may well be permitted to fade imto insignificance. The question we have to consider for the immediate welfare of those States of the Union is the question of government or no government, of social order and all the peaceful industries and the happiness that belong to it, or a re- turn to barbarism. It is a question in which every citizen of the nation is deeply interested, and with respect to which we ought not to be—in 9 partisan sense— either Republicans or Democrats, but fel- low-citizens and fellow men to whom the interests of a common country and a com- mon hamanity are dear. The sweeping revolution of the entire labor system of a large portion of ouf country and the ad- vance of four millions of people from a condition of servitude to that of citizen- ship upon an equal footing with their for- mer masters could not occur without pre- senting problems of the’ gravest moment to be dealt with by the ematicipated race by their former masters and by the gen- eral government the author of the eman- cipation act. That it wast wise, justand providential act, fraught with good: ‘for all considerate care of the National Govern- ment within the just limits prescribed by the constitution and wise publie econo- my, but at the basis of all prosperity for that as well as for every other part of the country lies the improvement of the intcllectual and moral condition of the people. Universal suffrage should rest upon universal education. To this end liberal and permanent provision should be made for the support of free schools by the State governments, and if need be, supplemented: by legitimate aid from wational authority. Let me assure my countrymen of the Southern States that itis my earnest desire to regard and promote their truest interests, the inter- ests of the white and of the colored peo- ple both and equally, and to put forth my best efforts in behalf ofa civil poliey which will forever wipe out, in our political af- fairs, the color line and the distinction be- tween North and South to the end that we may have not merely a united North and a united South but a united country. 1 ask the attention of the public to the paramownt necessity of reform in our civil sérvicé, a reform not merely as to certain abuses and practices of so-called official patronage which have come to have the sanction of usage in the several depart- ments of our government, but a change in the system of appointment itself, a reform that shall be thorough radical and com- plete, a return to the principles and prac- tices of the founders of the government. They neither expected nor desired that public officers should owe their whole service to the government and to the peo- ple, they meant that the officer should be secure in his tenure as long as his person- al character remained untarnished, and the performance of his duties satisfactory; they held that appointments to office were not to be made nor expected merely as rewards for partizan services, nor merely on the nomination of members of Con- gress as being entitled in any respect to the control of such appointments. The fact that both of the great political parties of the country in deelaring their principles priof to the election, gave a prominent pluce to the subject of reform of our civil service, recognizing and strongly urging ita necessity in terms almost. identical in their specific import with those I have here employed, must be accepted as a conclusive argument in behalf of these measures It must be regarded as the expression of the united voice and will of the whole country upon this subject and both political partiesare virtually pledged to ‘five'it'their unreserved support. The President of the United States of necessi- ty:owes his election to office to the suff- rage aud zealous labors of a political party, the members of which cherish with ardor, and regard as of essential importance the principles of their party organization ; bat he should strive to be always mind- ful of the fact that he serves his party best who serves the country best. In furtherance of the reform we seck, und in other respects a change of great importance, I recommend an amendment to the constitution prescribing a term of six years for the Presidential office and forbidding a re-election. With respect to the financial condition of the country, I shall not attempt an ex- tended history of the embarrassment and prostration which we have suffered dur- ing the past three years, the depression in all our varied commercial and. manufac- turing interests in the country, which be- gan in September, 1873, still continues. It is very gratifying, however, to be able to say that there are indications around as of a coming change to prosperous times. Upon the currency question, inti- mately connected as it is with this topic, I may be permitted to repeat here the statement made in my letter of accept- ance, that in my judgment the feeling of uncertainty, inseparable from an irre- deemable paper currency with its flucta- tions of valnes, is one of thé’ greatest ob- &tacles to a retarn to prosperous times. The only safe paper eurrency is one which ‘concerned is now conceded | throughout the country; r sts upon a coin basis and is at all times, good offices with all the nations of the world. Fellow Citizens, we have reached the close of a political contest marked by the excitement which usually attends the contests between great political parties whose members espouse and advocate with earnest faith their respective creeds. The circumstances were perhaps in no respect extraordinary save in the close ness and uncertainty of the result, For the first time in the history of the coun- try it has been deemed best in view of the peculiar cireumstances of the case, that the objections and questions in dispute with reference to the counting of the elec- toral votes should be referred to the de- cision of a tribunal appointed for this purpose. That tribunal established by law for this sole purpose, its members, all of them men of long established repu- tation for integrity and intelligence, and, with the exception of those who are aise members of the Supreme Judiciary, cho- sen equally from both political parties its deliberations, enlightened by the research and the arguments of able’counsel, was entitled to the fullest confidence of the Amcrican people. Its decisions have becn patiently waited for and accepted as legally conclusive by the general judg- ment of the public. For the present opin- ion will widely vary as to the wisdom of the several conclusions announced by that tribunal. This is to be anticipated in evety instance where matters of dts- pute are made the subject of arbitration under the forms of law. Human judg- ment is never unerring and is rarely re- garded as otherwise than wrong by the unsuccessful party in the contest. The fact that two great political parties. have in this way settled ‘a dispute in regard to which good men differ as to the facts and the law, no less than as to the proper course to be pursued in solving the ques- tion in controversy, is an occasion for general rejoicing. Upon one point there is entire unanimity in public sentiment, that conflicting claims to the Presidency must be amicably and peaceably adjusted and that, when so adjusted, the general acquiescence of the nation ought surely to follow. It has been reserved for a government of the people where the right of suffrage is univesal, to give to the world the first example in history of a great nation in the midst of a struggle of opposing parties for power, hushing its party tamults to yield the issue of the contest to adjustment according to the forms of law. Looking for the guidance of that divine hand by which the destinies of nations and individnals are shaped, I call upon you Senators, Representatives, Judges and fellow citizens here and everywhere to unite with me in an earnest effort to secure to our country the blessings not only of material prosperity, but of Justice; Peace and Union, a Union depending not upon the constraint of force but upon the loving devotion of a free people. And that “all things may be so ordered and settled upon the best and surest founda- tions, that peace and happiness, truth and justice, religion and piety, may be estab- lished among us for all generations.” a LUXURY THE CAUSE OF NATIONAL DECAY. FrvuGALity of manners is the nourish- ment and strength of bodies politic. It is that by which they grow and ° subsist, until they are corrupted by luxury—the natural eause of their decay and ruin. Of this we have examples in the Persians, Lacedwmonians and Romans ; not to men- tion many later governments which have sprung up, continued a while, and then perished by the same natural causes. But these are, it seems, of no use to us: and, in spite of them, we are ina fair way of becoming ourselves another useless ex ample to,futuré ages. Simplicity of manners may be more easily preserved in a republic than a monarchy ; but if once lost, may be soon - er recovered in a monarchy, the example that a moral ot li- {and Drompely, conrvestible, into ait.

Those who are at- tentive to such propositions only as may fill their pockets, will probably slight these things as trifies below the care of the legislature. But I am sure all honest, thinking men must lament to see their country run headlong into.all. those. lux- urious follies, which, it is evident, have been fatal to other nations: and will un- doubtedly prove fatal to us also, if a tim: ly stop be not put to them Essays.

Poultry at large upop a farm’ are supposed. to have at command all ‘need. fur health and husiness (the business of producing eggs). But this is not/often really the case, very few farms béing able to supply the many The birds of the air they die either ) Spy things needful. Lime, gravel, sand, aie water at will, and a full variety of both -hard.and soft feed, grain and insects, worms, etc., are seldom found on any oné farm. When they are, and the shelter from extremes of heat and cold (trees in summer and warm hous- ing in winter) are ample, there is no cholera, croup,,pip, or other disease. When a man knows what his farm lacks for his poultry, it is generally easily supplied ; but few persons can tell. exactly what is lacking. There is one thing, however, which is very im- t, which nature does not supply and which civilization makes necessa- ry, and that.is charcoal to keep the stomach sweet, to prevent indigestion and to. maintain a constant good appe- tite. Charcoal made of wood does not an- swer the purpose ; it has no taste of food, is not attractive to the fowl, and is seldom eaten. But if any one will put an-ear of ripe corn into the fire till the grains are well charred, and then shell off the corn and throw it to his flock, he will see an eagerness de- _veloped and a healthy condition brought about which will make a de- cided improvement. All pale combs will become a bright red, that busy song which precedes laying will be heard, and the average yield of eggs will be greatly increased. PLANT CORN. ‘Now that the ides of March are upon us and the momentous issue as to what we should plant must be decided, we would ‘east our vote emphatically for more corn and less cotton throughout the South. It would be a revolution indeed, but one that would achieve miracles for the recu- peration of our sorely-pressed people. We would no more hear the wail from the snowy fields of the South: “Cotton cannot be made for what it will bring!” Little cotton would bring much, and be a very “king” in the market, when now it lies i beggarly rags and sackcloth! It’ would be the loadstone to draw all the magnets from the North and Europe, and all the hoarded gold besides. The man with one bale, then, would reap more re- ward than he with ten now! And the corn. It would prove the hero of the campaign. Our homes would indeed be our castles in its abundance. Lean kine and cholera- slandered hogs—‘“et id omne genus”— would disappear, and in their places, as if by magic, would come forth the ‘seven years of plenty” race—smooth, round and glossy. Plenty would be in all our bor- ders. The “cattle on a thousand hills” would rejoice. The people would catch new inspiration and impetus, and the Soath would be redeemed ! The Son of the Soil, New Orleans, makes the following appropriate remarks on this subject : We have often heard it remarked that it is folly to attempt to raise your own eorn, for then it never is worth anything. Su g itis not. Is not the producer assured of his future if his cribs are full to overflowing? Is he not far more inde- pendent than the man who has none, even if its commerdial value is trifling ? The true secret of all successful farming is to raise your own supplies and sell on- ly your surplus. If this course could be universally adopted we should hear no more coniplaints that “farming don’t pay,” we should find no more first, second and third mortgages on our farms ; everybody would be prosperous and money would ngle in every man’s pocket. We have not attempted to write an ex- haustive article upon this subject, though it. ia well worthy of our consideration. Neither would we confine the self-support- ing labors of the farmer to corn alone, ‘There are many other kinds of grains, roots, ete., ett., which every farmer should raise, if he uses the prudence which other inddstriesdemand. Especially should the vegetable garden be a prominent factor in every farmer's table of values. With an abundance of corn, potatoes, cabbage, turnips and the hundred other pa,” he can be as independent as a ! be happy. himself and make everybody and everything around him also. ersenl in the beginning of this ar- ow is the time to determine just E shall be ; g z FE i 5a e Se e r is built upon should be at least ground, and the - the air can circulate freely through the 4 > ow, | sss Gora : ae : ir ap ’ ae feo ti Us i ‘and > 7! aia of yD data, itt oF meré anima aid whos flr 6n@ may pretty safely assume that tend Gonstan wal harin is to be anticipated from this source.

The real danger lies the soil and their contamination of the water of the well. To void such a possi- bility, the privy should be placed at least 60 or 70 feet from the well, and—if the direction of the natural drainage currents be known—in such a position that the contents of the privy will drain away from the well. Better yet, let the privy be so shall simply lie upon the surface of the ground, and let there be easy access to it from behind, so that fresh earth may be frequently added, and tlie entire accumu- lation removed, say once a week.

The writings of this, remarkable man—this wise and safe counselor, abound with commands, admonitions, and warnings with rospect to the high ‘obligations and ‘priceless yalue of mental culture. And as the only ground of a high grade of civilization, it is eminently worthy of the counsels of inspiration ; aud so commends it- self to the cardinal consideration of * The Slops.—How common it is for the kitchen authorities in a farm-house to throw the slops upon the ground, just out- side the kitchen door, and perhaps within six feet of the well. Ihave known of a boarding-house epidemic of diarrhea which could be traced to no other source than the contamination of the well-water by a shallow pool of sun-exposed, foul- smelling slops. A cemented cistern should be built about 75 or 1(0 feet from the house, and at a distance from the well, and to this all the kitchen slops, vegeta- ble waste, &c., showid be conducted through a suitable pipe or conduit. From the cistern these matters may be fed to the pigs, or thrown upon the ground at a proper distance from the house. The Ice.—The ice may be so loaded with foul yegetable matter as to give rise to quite severe disturbances of the bowels and stomach. If it be found free from an unpleasant oder, one may safely as- from this source. An inveterate epidem- ic of bowel troubles were traced to impure ice last summer at Rye Beach. Drainage.—This is a more difficult sub- ject to investifite, and ove conc®rning which I hardly dare venture any remarks in this place. In a general way, however, the statement may be that pools of stand- ing water, or marshy flats near brooks or streams (except, perhaps, at the seaside), are not desirable neighbors. This is es- pecially the case if the house in which you live is situated in a hollow (as in some mountain valley, however elevated it may freely circulate. The prevalence of ty phoid fever in some of the Vermont and New York mountain valleys, especially in early Autumn, is probably to be explained by the existence of just such conditions. In the case of a large hotel, the investigation shonld be practically the same as in case of farm-house. The difficulties in the way of such an investigation will be found, however, to be much greater, and it would probably be better in such a case to s8e- cure the assistance of some physician or engineer who is familiar with the subject. —New York Tribune. EE Oe We are reliably informed that a party of of Revenue officers shot a very aged man in Alexander county, this week, while he was paddling across the Catawba river from a bar-room on the opposite shore, where he had purchased a jug of liquor, He was shot in three or four places and is not expected to recover. Parties who have known him fora number of years, say that he is an inoffensive citizen and was never known to make or sell a gallon of spirits in his life. The good people of Alexander county, of both political par ties, are very indignant at the perpetra- tion of this unprovoked act.—Statesville Landmard. > 0g oa SOLOMON TO YOUNG MEN The wisdom of Solonion has be- come a universal proverb, in regard to whose truthfulness, few will haz- ard any question. His counsels, therefore, are entitled to the highest consideration, and his own personal consistency with respect to his teach- ings, worthy of the closest imitation, When he had inherited a great kingdom, with his riches, power ‘and glory, he sought of the Lord, as the indispensable qualifications for the offices and responsibilities of his ex- alted station, wisdom and bnowledge ; esteeming all other endowments as secondary. Nor did he esteem these intellectual treasures’ as of catdinal importance to himself only ¢ his wri- tings abound with cdtnsels dnd com- mands showing his high estimate of their value toall men, in all condi- tions of life. Hear him: Take fast hold of instruction ; let her not go ; keep sume that no danger is to be anticipated | be above the sea), where the air does not | mankind, that the neglect of it, is certainly one of the most humiliating shortcomings of humanity. The lessons of wisdum on this sub- |ject, which we have been considering, |are especially designed for the young and in their fullness are only adapted to that susceptible‘and plastic period of life. In fact, the wise king of Is- real specifically and distinctly de- clares, |hat the object of these lessons is to teach the young man knowedge. None knew better than the author of these counsels, that if knowledge be acquired in the degree of insuring the highest exaltation, refinement, an happiness of our race it must be sought when young when the mind and the body—the whole man—are in the condition to be saturated and fashioned by it.—A period in every human lifé will comie, .nd it goon comes, when the channels for the in- flux of its rich treasures will be clos- ed, and the soul, with capacities’ tu fill immensity, and grasp the infinite, will shrink, and shrivel, and waste— a thing of loathing and disgust in the eye of all virtnous intelligence, if it shall have been neglected, and denied the sustenance and vigor which true knowledge affords -as its “necessary | food.” How cminently suggestive, this immortal wreck, in the view of inspired minds, which prompted the utterances: That, the soul be without knowledge, it is not good: My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge ! And how it vindicates the choice, and counsel of Solomon: Give me now wisdom and kuowledge, that I may go Receive my instruction, and not silver ; and knowledge rather than choice gold ! From the days of Solgmon down to the present, in the judgment of all wise and good men, knowledge takes precedence among human endow- mets ; is of easier acquisition than any other, and invests with their chief importance all others. ,. What. are gold, silver, land, houses—all the piled up perishable :memorials <of wealth without it? If there be ‘an object om the face of the earth, down upon which angelic intelligence looks with a dimming tear iu its large, bright eye, it is the little fiillock® of purely material treasures, piled up by the instinct, eanning and plodding of a dwarfed soul, literally imprisoned within the pale of its own wasting possessions—and which does not, and cannot, go out in active, manly re- spondings to the ten thousand objects of wonder, usefulness, and enjoyment, by which it is strrounded. This is the condition of all the boasters of earthly possessions, withuut knowl- edge; ‘To yung men, these cqnsider- ations are of the highest importance, The voice of Solomon has been hush- ed in death for centuries; but his counsels, replete with the riches of wisdom and knowledge, have come down through the ages and to-day spel to the youth of our country. not go ; keep her, for ahe is thy life, The schools are open: seck therein knowledge—lnowledge of Ged; of his wonderful works ; of his laws— knowledge of yelled va ! of your minds ; yenr bodies ; your. surround- ings ; and of your own high and glo- out, and come in before this people :| ‘fast hold of inatruction 3 Ut her|- here i¢ notan 4 siete takes wl ole « ur : } one of gh eras well as profit.

To noble natures, nothing: is harder than to allow the possibility of change towards us in the affection of one we love, —if, even when the young minister found his betrothed pale, silent and ‘ie ae the possibility that she loved h r truly than she bad at first_snpposed fe thought was of her—how did crossed his mind, he the fear with a keen sense of d im having allowed it to rise.

Thische could not help, and he strove, by greater kindness | and more heartily-expressed tritst, to bridge over tne dissatisfaction, if that is not too hard a name for his state of mind; until, having made her his wife, he should have less fear of being misunder- stood.

Strange as it may seem, through all this process he did not’ doubt her love for him; he knew that his own love was only the brighter for being tried by this fire; but the dreadful aceusa- tion was, that at some time in her life there had been an experience which she dared not reveal to him—a dark spet on the raiment of his peerless one, which she would hide from his sight. The more Mr. Blakesford indulged this thought. the more bewildered and unhappy he became, until he seemed to himself to have lost his hold upon everything, and | to be dropping away into a dark and | perilous sea, without even a helm to gnide | him. “T will go to her.” These were the first words he spoke. He looked at his watch. She was still in school,—she, trusted with the education | of the young people,—his afflanced wife, Faith Halsteal. He repeated her name over slowly time after time, almost as if he expected it would answer for her and explain away the change. But stay in his study he could not. Even through the open windows the air seemed to con- fine, to choke him. So he went out for a long, swinging walk over the near, high hills. Perhaps he thought indistinctly to himself, ““God may be waiting up there to soothe and comfogt me.” Mr. Jones saw him going by the corner grocery, and, dropping in Tin-smith’s shop he remarked : “Y' jeat se our DiiufSter streaking away out of town totNe'métntains. T gtfesiit ain’t much of a sermon we shall get next Sabbath. Suppose, now, I should leave ‘my shop, who would tend to my business if I don’t, I should like ta know ?” But perhaps God was waiting for him there, and Mr. Jones, purblind, as so many of usare, never dreamed that the niouutain should become to his pastor what Sinai did to Moses: that amid the thunderings and lightnings and the noise of the trumpet, and the very thick dark- ness, there should be written for him a new law, and that, when God had thus talked with him from heaven, he should build an alter unpolluted by any tool, and the sacrifice, that he should bring to- law upon it would be the choicest burnt offerings. When Mr. eae shack dees his walk, he went at once home. School was out. He knew very well Faith Halstead was in her own room. He had sometimes dropped in there for a moment when he wis returning from his noon stroll; but he had found now, before he could see her, suspicion , ing in love. | ginates ; bringing. Over and over iu his mind |rang Sophronia Kipp’s parting words: “God comfort you, oh pee young pastor; I am so sorry for you.” There was some- thing painfal in them to him pow. Why not sorry for Faith Halstead—how much more she needed the sympathy and help than he did? Why had not Sephronia Kipp gone to her instead of coming to him? What was the reason women were so seldom willing to help cach. other, where the question was of one’s reputa- ; tation {—indeed, in his grief, he was bit- ter enongh to wonder if she had not en- joyed this piece of gossip; but this was a passing, worried thought : Miss Kipp had done herself justice, and he felt it. Sleep, of course, he could not, when ‘the time for rest came. To go to bed would be to augment the excitement and worry of his condition. With only a vagne _ idea that, in some way, he must be near ‘her—must see and know for himself the truth of the story—he went out as the clock struck twelve, and walked slow2y towards her He never tbeught that he might meet some of the parish, who would wonder at seeing Lim hover- ing around her at this time of the night; he forgot even Mis» Kipp, who was not Jess likely to be vigilant; but he went through one street after another, yearn- wounded heart only can house. ing, a8 a great, yearn, for some proof to be vouchsafed to him that it all had been only a_ hideous dream.

There is nething—vo moral or intellect- ual phenomena—more strapge than fall- What is it; how it is brought about ; things are among the hidden mysteries of nature. A girl has reached the age of eighteen ; a young man that of twenty-one. They have lived at home; traveled a little ; whence it ori- those | pursued their stadies; attended partics, and been a good deal in society of other young people ; yet they never took a very ‘deep interest iu anything in particular ; neither of them ever cared very much for any other person. ‘They meet, and lo! of a sudden all is changed! Each sees the other in a dif- ferent Nght from what any other was seen in; the world seems changed. Life itself seems changed; their whole being ischang- be like what it was, again, nevermore! Love is often as sudden as this, but not always.” Sometimes it is of very slow growth. Persons have know each other for years, and been much in each other’a society, and been intimate all this time, but never thinking of a tie stronger than friendship ; when some ipcident.or evept—a _ tempor- ary parting, or the intervention between them of a third person, friend or stranger —reveals.te them, for the first time, the great truth that they are mutually iv love. Yet this ldve, springing up gradually and imperceptibly, is wo less mysterious and unfathomable than that which is sud- den and at first sight. It is not mere friendship grown strong ; it is amore absorbing more violent, more uncontrollable sentiment. Whether a person can fall in Jove more than once is a mooted qnestion. Some people appear to fallin love many times. It is not unusual to see widowers, who marry again and seem to love the second wife as well as the first. he must take time and prayerful prepara- tion, As he entered his study, be saw ———— Son ee Make ne expense, but do good to others or yourself; that is, waste nothing. hiv ny daunted, ast an d_ pic the place, and . ig coutrived to make a gurl th the very meagre facilities ¢ a country blacksmith’s shop.

Their early history was the history of a struggle with privation and want, and imprisonment, and alinost despair; and the immortal Morse * must be added to the list owing all to their patience and cour- age and indomitable persistence. If young Remington had been supplied with a gun, he would have “gone a gun- ning,” and fallen graudually into a kind of idle, loating, aimless life, a burden to himself and a benefit to nobody.

It is the men who, as boys, strugyled for a foot-hold in the It is not the men who have inherited crowns but those who have made crowns for themselves and have plac- ed them on theirown heads that have done the most in molding tlie world’s history. Many a school child has marred its des- tiny, has been spoiled for all usefal par- poses in lift in being helped too much in life in getting his lessons. Much may be done in teaching childreu techerish self- reliance, determination and independence. More should be done than now is to in- spire children with an ambition to find out ways of doing things for themselves. Itis better to study out a rule in arithme- tie or grammer, it would be a saving of time in the end, even if it took a mouth. The fundamental mischief of public school systems is the children have not tine to study ont their lessons; they have not an hour to give to any problem, and too often they must be shown how, or be dis- graced with a discredit mark ; smal) won- der is it that so many, jen ead girls, know nothing when they leave school ; all they kuow is from .meehanical foree of memory. The true object of guing to school isnot so much to become acquainted with things, to know things, | nt to learn how to think, how to dévise, pow to plan; how, if a thing cannot be done in one way, it may be actomplished in another; to spare no pains or labor or efforts to bring about what is desired, and to never give up until it is done, or is clearly im possi- ble. This is the true way to make men and women worthy of their kind.

The point ia, let us see what the new Presi- dent will do. With such a Cabinet as he has, he cannot act as Grant did, if he were 80 disposed personally, which we believe he is not. The South must be cautious and wise. We have already given our views candid- ly and clearly. Our organization as a party must be preserved. The very pur- ity and safety of the country depend upon it. Two parties are a necessity. The Republican party under Hayes will do tolerably well only because the Senate is so close, the House Democratic, and the nation is opposed to it numerically. We must keep up our drill, our discipline, aud be ready to win a victory over the enemy whenever occasion presents itself. The South will stand by its colors, It asks for no political garbage. It demands fair-dealing and good government. It will accord due praise to the President when he administers the government and constitutionally. It will perform its ‘ part thoroughly well, and when the time comes will give “its 135 electoral votes 1830. We again avail ourselves of the editor- ial colamns of the Richmond Whig. That paper presents the case precisely as we understand it, when it says : ““We advocate no surrender of our prin- ciples ; no advance the « P of | ¢ the oname no means. No; we iam forever.

As we judged Grant and condemned him, not factiously but impartially, because he was wrong, so would we apply the test to Hayes, and applaud-and sustain him in his every effort to promote the best interests of our section and of the common country. We advocate no ‘new departure,’ but we would stand fast by the Conservative organiza- tion, and by our moderation and prudence prove that we are consery atives in fact as well as in name,” ee ALONG THE MEDITERRANEAN. The French shore of the Mediterranean divides into distinct parts, which offer a strange contrast to each other. From Genoa to Marseilles all is life and beauty ‘all the world” goes thither. From Mar-' seilles to the coast of Spain one finds everywhere solitude and desolation. The latter region was at one time highly pros- perous, but it has been entirely changed by the immense quantities of sand and mud brought down the rivers. Narbonne, ‘in the time of the Romans, communicated directly with the sea. It had its lagoon like Venice and a deep canal afforded pas- sage to heavy merchant ships and trire- mes of the Imperial fleet. The lagoon is now blocked up, and the commerce, wealth and activity are all gone. Arles was an- other very important city; it had two ports, like Alexandria, and was so rich and powerful that a poet of the fourth century spoke of it as the ‘Rome of the Gauls.’ The Rhone, with its annual seventeen millions cubic metres of sedi- ment, had been its ruin. So with other cities; but while they have become sep- arated from the sea, agriculture is gradu- ally taking possession of the land won from the water, aid the vine and olive may yet restore a part of the prosperity. a i etigit ‘ Heavina THE, Leap.—The steamer Fanny was coming down the upper Mis- sissippi loaded with pig lead. As she was going over a shoal place the pilot gave the signal to heave the lead. The ouly mian forward was a greenhorn. ‘““Why don't you heave the lead?” “Is it the lead, yer honor? Where to?” Overboard, you blockiiead.” The man snatched up one of the pigs of lead and threy it-over- ‘board. The mate, in endeavoring to pre~ vent him, lost his balance and fell into the river. The captain, running to the deck, asked: “Why don’t you heave the lead, and sing out how much water there iat” “The lead is heayed, yer honor, and the mate’s gone dowp to see how the stomach are rapidly absorbed by the See ee eceseeneeres ‘1909 —Battie.ot Getiysbant,....... 1815—Battle of Waterioo,...........,.. other means of civilization” since the world began, to be, in round numbers, 26,000,000, wiifle another computes. the number, with greater liberality, at 6,860,- 000,000.

If yon mix tea with iron filings, or pulverized iron, yon can make a fair article of ink. If you mix it with fresh human blood, it forms with the iron of the blood the tannate of iron. Take human skin and let it soak for a time in strong tea, and it will become leather. Now, when, we remember that the liquids which enter venous absorbents of the stomach, and enter into the circulation and are thrown out of the system by the skin, lungs, and kidneys, it is probable that a drink so common as tea, and so abundantly used, will have some effect..

Sun has the following respect- ing the amount of smoking done in this country in a single year :-— “In former years,cigarettes were used almost exclusively by Cubans and Span- iards. Now nearly every small boy in the city, and many, too, of large growth, smoke them by the package. Cigars, too, which in 1863, according to the revenue returns, were reported ogly to the extent of 199,288,235, have now become a staple necessity, almost touching the two-billion figure, the exact number being 1,908,141,- 057 ! ‘Let us take ten cents as an average, and we have 2,000,000,000 cigars at ten cents, which equals $200,000,000. Two hundred millions of dollars spent every year for cigars and cheroots !” Such an enormous waste as this is of no sinall consequence when almost every one is complaining of “hard times ;” but the pecuniary waste is but a small part of the actual loss. The waste of health, of vital energy, which might be expended in some nseful manner for the benefit of the indi- vidual or the race, is an irretrievable loss whieh cannot be estimated in dollars and cents.

There is another noted peint at which we have a wall, about nine miles north- west of this place, on lands formerly own- ed by a man named Robley. It was here, many years ago, that a considerable exca- vation was made. The wall stood so erect and the crystals of which it was com- posed were of such remarkable uniformi- ty in size and shape (rhomboidal), and were embeded in a sabstance so clagely resembling cement that many intelligewt people believed it was the work of humar haads, and some are still of that opinion. But the rock is ef the same character, and may be only. 8 continuation of the vein seen on the Ellis farm. The exeavation alluded to is said to have been carried dows 20 feet; but it was &iitless of sei- entific resulta, for it s@ill left the salgject shrouded in doubt as to the ¢laaracter of the wall. »Hence the frequemt visits made to these Places.

THE “NATURAL WALL.” There is always somebody about who wants to see the “natural wall” which crops out at several places in this county, and eonsequently parties are formed al- most every year to visit ghe localities where it may be seen. There was a pat- ty made up for this parpog, last Friday, and the strange part it is that it consisted almost entirefy of old stagurs and those who are “‘off*the carpet.” Bat it comprised gentlemen and ladies, all very handsome, sprightly, gay and festive. We would hardly do justice to them with- out giving the names of some of the gen- tlemen, at least, and we certainly campot do better than to begin with Maj. 5. W. Cole, who inapired the incident, and then fellow with Mr. Wm. Murdock, who knows all about rocks and walls, Rev. J Rumple, who was freshly posted on Trap, Basalt, Plutonies, Feldspas, Hornblende, Pyro- Hxene, &e., &c.; amd close the list with Mr. T. F. Klutz, armed with a pick and nerved by a keea gelish fer looking into things. The Ladies constituted the poet- ic grace of the party, without gvhom it would have been a, prosy affair.

It is reported that the negro Dallas , who barned Pittsboro jail and afterwards broke oat of Carthage jail, broke into a store in Alamance, and afterwards stole some horses. The officers pressed and undertook to arrest him, when he snapped a stolen gun at the sheriff, and then knocked him down with the butt; where- upon smassistant with a club knocked the negro down, breaking his skull. It is over, there came another message— ‘*‘Remember your vows.” At that she rose from the sewing machine with 9 bound, and sent that in- novation tumbling over, carrying with it the new dress, ribbons, ruffles, buttons, frills, spool thread, scissors, &c., and seizing the poker commenced stiring the fire at such arate that she exploded the cook stove and set things on fire all around her, inside and out. This “natural wall” is the product of that ebulition ; and it is called “natural” because, under the cir- cumstances, it is generally conceded that old mother (young then) had rational cause for anger. But this traditional history, though limited to the subject in hand, is very suggestive as regards many other forma- tions on the earth’s surface. Itis conject- ured that old Sol’s little flirtation with Venns was no trifling affair ending. in the creation of a little trap dike merely, ex- tending through Rowan and terminating in Iredell county.

This process differs from the man- ufacture of other glassware in the compo- nent parts of material used. After the ware has passed from the work men’s hands it undergoes an annealing process by be- ing thrown into a bath of tallow. The visitors were conducted through the works and the process of manufacture was ex- plained. They were then conducted into the storeroom, where lamp chimmeys, tumblers, plates, globes &c., were subject- ed tow test by throwing them carelessly around the floor, driving nails into boards with a lamp chimney, and pitching the plates 15 or 20 feet.on a hard floor. One small plate was thrown into the air about 25 feet and allowed to fall upon a brick floor, without breaking. Lamp chimneys werg placed on lamps and heated, and cold water was sprinkled upon them, but theee severe.tests did not effect the ware in the tenkti! The works employ about 150 persons, mostly boys and girls, -— Far the Jaat few years the desire for Florida oranges bas been se great that.it was ible to supply the steadily in- ereasing demand at anything like reason- able prices, In allgorthern aud westerp markets good, and even fabplons prices bi have heen obtained for this golden fruit of Flosida, while other oranges have aqld at fair to nominal prices.

Facts are stubborn things, and if any one doubts that the Spitz dog ig a danger ous anim to have jn the family, let him study the facts. “Doubt will sdon gite place to conviction that there are periods in the life @F titi gpecits of dog when hij te is fatal. Those who haye had sueh dogs in the house have observed that at certain, ar uncertain seasons they are sul- | len, mopish, and impatient. At such times they often snap at their best friends, even the children of whom at other times they are most fond. It is now ascertain- fed that the bite of this species of the dog HB followed Srequently by hydrophobia, and some cases of such distressing nature have come to our knowledge, that we are constrained to this word of caution. How- eyer great may be one's affection for a |dog, and his admiratjon of the traits of character often displayed by the animal, the life of a child is of more value than all the dogs in the world. ‘Therefore the old Latin warning, Care canem, and the Scripture precept, beware of doya, are to be heeded.— ¥. Y. Obserrer. Te — Romanism DecuintxGc iN IReELAND.— While the Romish element in our popnia- tion has been increasing and mainly by the Trish immigration, it is well to see that our gain is Ireland’s loss. The late Dr. Nicholas Murray, our ‘‘Kirwan,” used to say that the loas of some people was a great addition to the population. And this is the way it works: In 1809 the pop- ulation of Great Britain and Ireland was about fifteen millions and three quarters, of whem four millions and a quarter were Roman Catholics, or 27 per cent. of the whole joptiation. Now the population is } nearly thirty,one millions and a half, of whom a little more than five millions and a half are Roman- Catholies,or only 18 per cent. of the whole population. In other words, while the Roman Catholics have increased at the rate of 28-per cent., the Protestants have increased at the rate of 120 per ent. Protestantiam haa, there- fore, been advancing nearly five times fas- ter than Romanism since the beginning pf the present century.—N. ¥. Observer. rr TEACH YOUR CHILDREN TO SING. RR Because it is the surest way to make them happy. The families ate those who sing most around their own hearth-storfee. ‘Then music is easy to learn, and is the most refined of all arta. It parifies the heart, refines our feelings and exalts the mind. It offers greater advantages to the child for social enjoy- ment than any other branch af jts eduea- tion, They our children are natural born musicians ; at least you seldom meet with a child that cannot he taught to sing of home and heaven.

Many excellent teachers, in our State, are n want of revumerative employ - ment, @ud we have the men and. the wo- men to increase the number, and enlarge the operations of our schools. We there- | fore suggest that influential persons look | around them Add See if schools are needed | in their neighborhoods ; and if the neigh- | bors will agree to call some ot these teach | ers. The-President-has taken his seat in | peace, and the eampnign is certainly over. | Good weather is coming aud the children | need attention. growing | np in ignorance, and all good tena should strive to make them wiser and | better, and at the same time give employ- | ment to good and useful citizens, Fathers and mothers owe their childre ni | the opportunity of Improve ment, ev en when the children prevegpely allow their | opportunities to pass proved. Look back and consider w you wish your | parents had done for you, and then do | the same for your own’ children. If you | wish schools had been open to you, open them to your children. If you wish you had received a little compulsory educa- | tion, then compel your children to im- prove their time and learn such things as they ought to know. And now one more | suggestion. The State needs, and our people would gladly patronize, schools | roffering board at low rates for boyes and | girls. Sonte hotels in the State charge | j one dollar a@ meal. They feed many glut- | tons and afte expected to feed them high ; | fand some of these hotels clear but little. | Other hotels charge twenty-five cents a meal and farnish a plenty of wholesome | food. As a@rule, boys and girls can be boarded for one teurth of the usual hotel | board. Some members of the Legislature | | board in Raleigh at $18 « wonth. They | do this in winter, when wood is high and vegetables are scarce. They furnish no sheets, no towels no lights. But if they would remain through summer, when no wood is needed, and vegetables are abund- ant; and if they would furnished sheets, towels and lights, they could be boarded for much less, Now if these hale and hearty men, who have just fought through @ four-montin ganpaign, could get board tor so little, schools boys and girlsought to get beard for tess. A few boarders are troublesome and expensive; but the cost of board does not increase with the num- ber of boarders.

Lord Ellenborough on one occasion, was under the necessity of listening to an advoeate who had the reputation of&being a sound lawyer, but a terrible bore. The question before the court was the ratabil- ity of certain lime quarries to the relief of the poor. Counsel contended at a most wearisome length, that such property was not ratable, because the lime-stone in the quarries could be reached only by deep boring, which was a matter of science “Well,” interrupted his lordship, ‘as to that, you will hardly succeed in convinc- ing us, sir, that every species of boring is a matter Of science.” It ia said that there was uly one may in court who failed to see the joke.

All being riveted water-tight, it will be roHed imto the sea and across the sandy bed of fhe water til) it floats. It will then be turned over and the man-holes at the top opened and about thirty tons of bal- last put in to keep the ends vertical, so as to act like stem and stern. It will then have two bilge keels, a rudder, light spar deck, mast and Ing sails attached, and be provided with an anchor and good chain cables, and, if necessary, a pump in case of leakage. The cylinder ship will then be fit to go to any port of the world with its freight and in any weather.” Telephone entertainments are becoming popular. The following description of the instrument and its method of operation is intelligible,to those whe_cap appreciate a diaphragm of iron: . “The telephone in its present form con- sists of a powerful compound, permanent magnet, to the poles of which are attach- ed ordinary wire. by these coils of wire, is placed a dia- phragm of iron. A mouth-piece to con- verge the sound upon this diaphragm substantially completes the arrangement. The motion of steel or iron in front of the poles of a magnet creates a current of elec- tricity in the coils surrounding the poles of the magnet, and the duration of this current of electricity coincides with the duration of the motion of the steel or iron moved or vibrated in the proximity of the telegraph coils of insulated In front of the poles, surrounded magnet. When the human voice causes the diaphragm to vibrate, electrical undu- lations are induced in the coils environ- ing the magnets precisely analogous to the undulations of the air produced by that voice. These coils are connected with the line wire, which may be of any length, provided the insulation be good. The undulations which are induced in these coils travel through the line wire, and, passing through the coils of an in- strument of precisely similar construction at the distant station, are again resolved into air undulations by the diaphragm of this instrument.”— Boston Commercial Bulletin. —- COTTON MANUFACTURING. This great interest, lately so depressed and unprofitable, has taken new lease of life, both North and South. At the North, the Cocheco Manufacturing Company, at Dover, N. H., propose the erection of a new mill of 40,000 spindles, which it is thought will add 2,000 to the population of the place. The City Council has voted to exempt the mill from taxation for ten years. At the South, a new manafactur- ing company has been organized at Augus- ta, Ga., with a capital of $150,000. The mill begins with 10,000 spindlers, which will be increased to 50,000 as the times re- quire. The stock was promptly subscrib- ed,° machinery secured, taken to have the mill eompleted within four months. Most of the capital was subscribed by Massachusetts manufactur- ers, one of whom is president of the new company. In this connection, a glauce at the last annual report of the Eagle and Phenix Manufacturing Company, of Au- | gusta, is of interest. This report, for the year 1876, shows that this company has invested in real estate $522,923, machin- ery $607,090, and building and material on hand, cash, (mill No. 3) $79,776. The capital stock is $1,250,000, The company has declared and paid dividends since 1869, $750,000.

GENTLEMEN, READ THIS. —_— ‘“MusIC HATH CHARMS TO SOOTHE THE SAVAGE BREAST.” “‘For the sake of those who love us, For the sake of God above us, Each and all should do their best To make music for the rest.” Gentlemen do love music as much as ladies. Music is the great charmer, the greatest household pleasures «njoyed by |. our fathers and brothers as much as by our mothers and sisters. Yét it is a re- markable fact, that so few gentlemen learn to play a musical instrument or receive a thorough musical education. Many gen- tlemen in Europe make no distinction be- tween their danghters and sone giving each a good musical education. Yes, some go so far as to consider a young man’s education without music culture, as deficient. There we find in every town of veapectable sizee atring quartette, or a small orchestra. Where one may hear the works of Beethoven, Mozart, Hayden, Mendleshon, Onslaw and others, orm- ed with a reasonable degree of perfection.: Especially is this true of the higher cir- cles, where these musical gatherings are considered as one of the greatest pleas- ures to be enjoyed. Ministers of State, Judges, Generals, Ministers of the Gospel, Counts and Dukes, men who have mil- lions of property, deem it their greatest pleasure to execute music themselves, and delight in doing so before others; for it is a great pleasure to hear good music, it ig doubtless a still greater pleasure to perform it.

Are parents |- ‘aftaid to let boys learm aiusie, fom fear it will disqualify them from other parsuite in life? Does it lead ‘to’ iing ‘away ories time? Or, is there no tnaferial profi in*it!

Some there t matter and’ iach -|are ’tis true, who would ¢ousider it more izing the State Guard, and: orders the}honorable to be invited because of their | possession of gold and lands, rather than on account of their mental or musical ability, but sach will probably never gain entrance anywhere except it is bought by gold... How many young men have been saved from bad society, from the gambling house and drinking saloon, by the recrea- tion which music affords them at home or with friends. How sad to hear of a father forbidding his son this indulgence of learning music! because he fears it will interfere with other duties, or because his | love for it might cross some pet plan which he laid for the future of his sen. Such parents we think have a heavy re- sponsibility resting upon themselves. Some thisk music will weaken man; ab! a little practice of it of that youthfal candor and pure joy in the face, which has long since become as hard as flint. There is no people which loves masio.and practices it more than the Germans do, but did they show any weakness in the late war in Europe? How many & quartette or small orchestra could have been picked out of a regiment? Let us begin at home, in our public schools, establish music in our universities, spread singing societies, train boys into singing schools, tet them learn to play instru- ments, encourage all love for music: in boys and men, and we will be a happier people soon. ——-—- ~~ The Pope is sick again.

They have also received the MEDAL, but, as is well known, medals of equal merit have been awarded ali articles deemed worthy o1 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 sas 8 “exhibit of Reed Organs aoe Har- shows: Instruments of the FIRST 3T RAN K “IN THE SEVERAL RE- UISITES OF INSTRUMENTS OF HE CLASS: via.: Smoothness and equal distribution ‘of tone, scope of expression, resonance and singing qual- ity, freedom and. quickness in action keys and bellows, with thorough- ness ef wos. manship, .combined | with simplicity of action.” (Sign-d by allthe Judges.) The Mason and Ham- lin Organs ar~ 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-wae not uuexpected, for the Mason & [f{amlin Cabinet Organs have uniformly -been awarded the highest honors in competitions in America, there baving been scarcely six exceptions in -hundreds of competitions.

The bell from his steepte bagmed out the hour slowly, solemnly, as he had often heard it strike the first fun- eral note. Why not? Wasn't his love, his life, dead, and only the burial remain- ing? Still the glimmering light ; still the ppen casement ; and still Sophronia Kipp, —and himself watching, watching. All tlie rest of Darlington asleep. Well, let jtsleep; no slumber could be too deep to pide what was there enacting. Two o'clock! Faith had been several times'to the window now, and looked, antiously up and down the street. She waa evidently expecting some one who didnot come. Mr. Blakesford fancied she whe pale, and that he could discern a look oftrouble. His impulse was to cross the street. and say a few words to her. Any- thing would be better than the suspense he Was undergoing ; but he could no more have done so than he could have gone home ; he must stand still, just where he whe, gad watch the thing to its bitter As thie long, long night drew to its close ; the gray daylight began to steal up ower the elear theayens above the little st#@etwhere this tragedy was enacting.

Against this, Mr. Bigkesford’s good sense obliged him to put the open window, the light, and the Weatnher. No, no; it was true, and he gnust now prepare himself for the worst ! Nature is kinder to us than Mother Earth. When Mr. Blakesford threw him- self ypon his bed, well spent both in body and mind, sleep came at once to his re- lief; and Mrs. Deacon Washburne, after oneor two ineffectual attempts to waken piay, decided it was such an unusual event, ghe would allow him to sleep it out; s0 it ‘was well on toward noon before he found Ye more in his new world of ' vy, Young, strong, and perfectly pealthy, body and mind, with a true, firm, Christian‘hope, he did not receive nor 6 with this grief as one more in- would have done.

Words that were always on his lips were ‘Faithful in little;-faithfabin much ;’ and it seems to me now he is gone, those words are now my chief comfort. Wherever Transome ia, he is faithful stil. It was a daring thing to niarry so far away from owe’s people in those days. There were no railroads, and the coaches were to@déar for us, even the outside of therfty where in the summer you were covered with dust and parched with thirst, and nipped with frost and wind ‘in the winter. Transome and me did not once think of taking the coach after we were wedded. The coach ran dlmost straight from my village to his; and though the journey took us the best part of three days, and he was winning no money, it was the cheapest way of travelling. It seems to me, when I shut my eyes and think of it, as if it had afl been in some other world; When Transome and me were young, and the warm sunny days were tll of light and brightness, such as the sun never gives now-a-days, as if the sun itself is growing old. The boat floated slowly along the canal, whilst we walked together til “were tired, gathering the blossoms from the grassy banks, or we sat on the boat, plucking the water-lilies up by their l@bg roots. How gently we were rocked as thé Water pos@ benéath us in the locks & Ecan hea the rush and gurg- ling of thé water now! And with my dim old eyes shut, Lcay see Transome looking upon me With a-smile, such as I shall nev- ermore seé again, till I behold his face on the other side of death's dark river, smiling down upon me as I reach the shore. Ah! there are mo times now like those old times ! Tt was ia the cool of the evening he brought me to his house, ‘standing on the brow of a Jew hill, with what he called a clough, and Lealled a dingle, full of green trees and underwood, running down toa little sparkling river in the valley below. We could see far away from the door, and feel the rush of the fresh air past us, as it came over fields and meadows, and swept away to other fields and meadows. The cottage was an old one even then—built half of timber, with a thatched roof pitch- ed very high and pointed, and with one Window init to light our upstairs room. Downstairs was one good-sized kitchen, with a quarried floor, and the loom stand- ing on one side. Nota bit of a parlour or spare chambé?, suéhiais Vd been used to. Iknew Transome,thought often of that ; but the place grew so dear to me, I ceased ‘ocare abotit any parlour. As for the garden we worked in it all our spare time, till many a passer-by would stop to look at the honeysuckle, and travellers’ joy climbing up the wall, and hanging over our window inthe roof; and at the posies ia the garden, the-hollyhecks, and roses, and sweetwilliams, which made the air all Swee(With their scent. After a while, whew father and mother were dead, I for- ria old home; and it seemed that I ce dwelt, anywhere else, and must dwell théfe titrtie end of my days. Nothing ned to us; nothing gave the birth, and the short, short life of a little child of ours, Our orf > who fed “when he was seven ‘Yea ofa, and could just read his. father at the loom. It was that Year the sky began to grow greyer, and the wind to blow more chilly about the Se. Transome was ten years older me, and he began in some way to his age now the- ‘boy was done. And 4s time went on things became duller and duller and his rheumatism grew worse and worse, till he had to give up his loom, ~s last he could do little more than out the rent by being odd man for at landlord, who’ khew he could trust With untold gold. But.all this while the country side was even fuster than Transome and me. The railroads had been made, and _ Machinery j invented, and ali the little vil- : Nene welt turning | into towns as if by matic, There had always been a few mills . along the course of our little river, but ‘ae, an moreand more sprang up with tall smoky chinmeys, atid streets were wt and houses built, until the dingle beGiitiie a Yow of f straggling cottages, ner our pretty home- nad: Perhays it was because I belonged county, and spoke in a’ differ- Ses but none of the country folk la there ever took heartily to me, and. shy with ‘them and thoir maybe I cam still be “=, ote nat ® tough ways. Transome himself was a quiet man, and never cared to make many friends ; so we dwelt like strangers among our neighbors, ap in ease cottage, which was a8 different frott the hew brick houses about it as we were to the factory people living in them. . But I never felt strange with chil , nor fli¢y with me. So when Transoine was lafd u his work, ‘Tyopened a little dame 1 for thie lads and lane Tien g i in the flown the dingle. “"Phey"s00n flock: = melike chickens at the cluck-cluckin an old mother ben, till I wight haye Nea my kitchen twice over. But my outside number was thirty, and as they paid me threepénce a week each, Transome and I managed to get along—what with him ’ fine sewing from the ladies of the town, Transome wasalways proud of my learn- ing and now he was glad for me to earn money in that way, instead of by washing, ag many a woman has to do when her man is ailing. But he did not like little ones as I did; they pottered him, he said, and he never knew how to manage them. So after a while, whenever he could not go to work, he liked better to lie abed up- Stairs, till the evening school was over, than sit in the chimney-nook listening to the hum of their lessons, which always sounded in his ears like a score of hives swarming. I used to be afraid he would be dreary and sad in those long days, whilst I was as busy as could be down- stairs. But he said he had thoughts come into his head that he could not put into words, for he had always been a man of few words, fewer than any I ever met with, and as he got older they be- came fewer still. Maybe he’ll know how to tell me those thoughts of his when we meet in heaven. Il.—A New Scuorar. I have only one thing to tell. you about my little school; the only one strange thing that happened to me all the years I kept it. It had been a sharp frost in the night, so sharp that the panes in the windem, little diamond-panes, were frosted over with so many pretty shapes that I almost wished they could stay there always. I quite wished that the children, were there tp see them. When I opened the door all the great, broad sweep of country stretehing before me was lightly powdered over with snow, and long icieles hung like a ragged fringe to the eaves, If the dingle had been there, how sparkling and beautiful every tree and shrub would have shone in the carly light! But the last bit of the dingle was gone, and a new, red brick house stood at the end of our garden. Still the low bushes about our place were silvered over, and glittered in the frosty sunshine, which they caught before it reached the houses below. I had overslept myself that morning, for the night before I'd been poring over a book that had been lent me, till my can- dle burned down in the socket, and left me in the dark. I could not put that book down ; it stirred my heart so. But now I began to feel as if 'd- been wasteful, for candles were not plentiful with us, nor money to buy thei, though I was loath to blame myself. At any rate I was behind time, and I could not tarry at the door, but mast hurry more than usual in getting breakfast over, and redding up the kite h- en in time for sehool. Inside the house the place seemed dark and dreary, and everything was cold to the touch of my fingers. I began to think of how ailing ‘Transome was, and how the frost wW6uld brte him. He had not been to work fora fort-night, and the rent was running on all the while. The rent was my heaviest care. matter much to me what I had to eat and drink, so that we made both ends meet, and kept oat of every man’s debt. But Tran- some’s pains had been very bad all night; and I knew well he could not go ont in snch a bitter frost, if the rent was never paid. Well! I was down-hearted that morn- jng ; and I felt as if I could not afford to put more than a spoonful and a half of tea in our little black teapot, which stood simmering on the ob, I'd been in such a glow over that book the night before, it seemed as if it made me all! the lower that morning. Ihad wanted to be doing some- thing good in the world; trading for the Lord, so as to offer Him something more than my mere day’s work, which seemed to be all for myself and Transoime. But the glow was gone I felt what a poor old creature I was, and that I could do noth- ing at all extra for Him. ‘Ally ! I heard Transome calling from the room upstairs ‘are yo’ asleep again ! Aw’m fair parched wi’ drought.’ The floor between that room and the kitchen was nothing but boardsand beams, so I could hear if he only turned over in bed. I had no need to stir from the fire to answer him; I only raised my voice a little. ‘Coming, coming in a minute,’ I called back, ‘the tea’s in the pot, and’s only standing to get the strength out.’ ‘Aw niver see such a lass for a book,’ I heard him mutter to himself ; “hoo for- gets-all when hoo has a book.’ That was quite true. But hearing him say to himself, and him in such pain, was ten times worse than if he had rated at me. Ay! I'd been selfish, all in my glow of wishing to do good in the world. What better could I do than attend to the duties the Lord had given m6? He had given} Transome to’ nurse, and tdke care of, and wait upon, and I'd sat up late in the night, and overslept myself in the morn- ing, while he was parched with thirst and racked with pain. Then there was the school ; and the clock was pointing to not! far ees school-time, and me nothing like réady. If I could’ not fulfill these little duties, how could I ask the Lord to set me a greater oue ? I poared out Transome’s tea, and car- f| ried it upstairs. He did not seem in the best of tempers. Bat! took no notice of his cohtrariness; for how could he de cheerful when he could not lifthis hand tohis mouth, anit I had to feed him with hat morsel and every sup he s rallowe y t he a bade me go down to my breakfast. I had hardly time to eat it, before my scholars came trooping up from the dingle; the mischievous little urchins bringing with them icicles hidden under thier jackets, which soon melted and trickled down in pools on the floor. I had need of patience that morning. After that water was wiped away, I sat down behind my roynd table in the chim- ney-nook, with my Bible and a Catechism, a Hymn-book and a primer before me. There were four benches across the floor, besides a small one at the end of the loom, where 1 put my best scholars, because they were out of my sight there. All were full, till there wasscareely elbow room; ind much care and thought it gave me how to scatter the most among the goud ones, like the tares and the wheat growing together until the harv- est. Not but that I could have picked out the tares wellenough; but I knew it would never do to let them all congregate to- gether. Maybe the Lord knows it is bet- ter for the wicked themselves to be acat- tered about among the good; so I set the tares about side by side with the wheat, but kept them all where I could have my eye upon them. The snow was beginning to fall pretty thickly, with large, lazy flakes drifting slowly through the air, for there was no wind, when a boy near the door at once broke in upon a spelling-class, that stood in a ring betore me. ‘There’s somebry knoekin’ at th’ door,’ he’said, in a loud voice. It must have been a quiet knock, for I had not heard it; but then my hearing was not as quick as it used to be when I could hear the bubbling of the river be- low the diugle. Besides, the lads and lasses were all humming their tasks. I told the boy to open the door; and he jumped up briskly, glad to put down his lesson-book, if only for a minute. Still when the door was open I could see noth- ing but the large flakes floating in, and the children catching at them. ‘Eh! but he’s a gradely little chap! cried the boy at the door in a tone of surprise. ‘Tell him to come in,’ I called, bidding the class make way for our visitor. Well, well! I never saw such a beauti- ful boy before, nor since. He was about seven, but rather small and delicate for his years. His eyes were as blue as the forget-me-nots that used to grow along the river-side; and his brown hair was sunny as if it had a glory round it. Some- how I thought all in a moment of how the Lord Jesus Christ looked when he was a blessed child on earth. The little fellow had on a thin, thread-bare sailor's suit of blue serge—so thin that he was shivering and shaking with cold, for the snow hid powered him over as well as everything else. He looked up in my face half smil- ing, though the tears were in his eyes; eed ete ; and his little mouth quivered so he could As long as that was paid, it did not | not speak. I held out my hand to him, and called him to me in my softest voice, wishing it was as soft as it used to be when I was young. ‘What are you come for, my little man?’ I asked. ‘I want to come to your school,’ he said, almost sobbing ; ‘but I hayen’t got any money ; and Mrs. Brown says you'll not have me without money,’ ‘Who is Mrs, Brown? |. asked feeling my heart strangely drawnio the gbild. ‘She’s taking eare of me,’ ho answered, ‘till father comes back! Pather ‘ll have lots of money When he comes home, -Bat he’s been away a lung, long while; and nobody’s kind to me now. Sometimes Mrs. Brown says I must go to the work- house. Father brought me a parrot last time he came ; but it flew away one night while I was asleep, and nobody ever saw it again.’ I felt the tears start in my own old eyes as he spoke, and all the scholars looked to me as if there was a mist in the room. ‘Poor boy!’ I said. ‘And where is mother ?” I might have spared him the question if] had thought a moment. Hibs little mouth quivered more than ever, ‘and the tears slipped over his eye-lids, and ran down his cheeks. ‘Never mind!’ I said hastily, and draw- ing him near to me, closer and closer till his curly little head was on my bosom, ‘you shall come to school, my little lad.’ Yet before the words were off my tongue, I began to wonder how it could be man- aged. There was not a, spare inch of bench, not even at the end of the loom, where my best scholars sat. Only the day before I had refused steadily to take in a boy for fourpence a week; ay! six- ‘would only. have hin aud } troublesome of them | & week his of mischief.

Mrs. Brown calls me all sorts of names.’ . ‘Creep in here, Pippin,’ I said, making a place fur him close beside me in the chimneynook, There was barely room for me to stir; but the little lad kept so still and quiet, with his shinning eyes lifted up to me, and his face all eager with hearkening to what I was teaching the other scholars, that I did not care about being crowded. There was a small, low chair of Willie’s, my only boy who was dead, that was kept strung ap to the hook in the strong beam by a bit of rope. It was a pretty chair, painted green, with roses along the back, and many atime my scholars had admired it. But no child had ever sat in it since Willie died. When morning school was over I climbed up on one of the benches, in spite of my stiff limbs, and unfastened it. The tears stood again in iy eyes, for I fancied I could see my boy sitting in it by the side of the fire-place, and watching me while I was busy about my work. ButI dusted it well, and set it down just in Willie’s own place in the chimney nook, where Pippin was still quietly squatting on the floor ; for he had not run away the moment school was ov- er, like the other children. ‘There ! I said, ‘that’s your seat now, my little lad. It belongs to my Willie, who's been in heaven these twenty years, waiting for ine and father. Nobody but a good boy ought to sit on a chair that be- longs to him, now he’s an angel.’ ‘I’m going to be a good boy now, and an angel some day,’ said the child, smiling up in my face. ‘The Lord help him and me!’ I said to myself, as I put the room to rights after the lads and lasses, ‘it’s not that easy to be good.’ quickly.

New York, March 22.—The most thor- ough search for some trace of ex-Mayor Oakey Hall fails to establish the least clue. There have been all kinds of ru- mors afloat concerning him, the one find- ing most believers being that he was fish- ing near Islip, L. I., but word has been received from there that he is not there. Ex-Congressman Meade shows a letter from Mr. Hall, written on Friday after- noon, in which Hall promises to meet Meade on the next day. Meade thinks that his letter amply shows that Hall had no intention of absenting himself from the city, and he thinks Hall is dead. Persons who have taken charge of Mr. Hall's of- fice say they haye discovered proof that he worked late into the night on Friday, and among other things wrote 4 list of questions that were to be propounded to those he, Mr, Meade and ex-Judge Solo- mon weré to examine for admission to the bar on Saturday. On the other hid, one Munia, a printer, says positively that he saw Hall in an up-town stteet on Monday, and Mr. Sexton, a well-known: arehitect, says that he rode down town with Mr. Hall in a horse car on Tuesday. All this simply makes the mystery niore mysteri- ous. Mr, Hall's most intimate friends say they believe he hag been murdered. THE FISHING INTEREST IN THE CATAWBA AND YADKIN RIVERS. His Excellency, Governor Vance, yes- terday addressed a letter to Governor Wade Hampton, of South Carolina, call- ing his attention to the act recently pass- ed by the General Assembly of this State in regard to the artificial propagation of fish, and asking him to use his endeayors to have the obstructions torthe passage of fish removed from the Catawba and Yad- kin rivers after they enter hig State. He reminds Governor Hampton that the Leg- islature of his State some years ago pass- ed an act looking to the removal of such obstructions, and he now. asks —_ to have this law enforced and to 4 such other on as him to promote tion of fish the two streams = Mae ato : ay ee LS ae nk ee ee NAY YORK», Margh 2 was to be ‘preparcd:. ‘The clerk, says that Mr. Hall’s manner indicated,.that he was to be on hand early on Saturday, and no one was more astonished at his ‘absence than he, and this was increased as hours wore away, and no communica- tion was received from the absent law yer, His personal friends and the detectives were immediately informed of this and they have searched ever since, but not a clue have they obtained. Recorder Hack- ett, Mr. Vanderpoel, Hall’s former Jaw partner, and Douglass Taylor, who are probably as intimate friends as Mr. Hall had, say that they believe he has been foully dealt with. It’s known that Mr. Hall had seven hundred dollars in cash in his pocket the evening he disappeared, that he had taken from bank that day. They think that he was put out of the way for this money. Others believe that he has committed suicide. They say that he has of late been depressed in spirits. Everything he put his hand to after the downfall of the big ring has failed. He said to Recorder Hackett, less than a week ago, that it seemed impossible for him to win @ law case; all the judges were against him and he had lost them all. FEARS OF EXPOSURE. The return of Ingersoll, Tweed, Swee- ney and other ex-ring magnets, and the belief that prevails that there are to be new developments in the ring frauds, have unquestionably worried Mr. Hall, who, a8 Mayor, is believed to have wink- ed at the rascalities, althotigh nothing has been proved against him. Then, too, there has been a theatrical scandal freely circulated, in which his name is eonpled with thatof a fair young actress, and this is said to have greatly annoyed him. These facts are mentioned by those who believe that Mr. Hall has committed sui- cide. The actors who were well acquaint- ed with him, Fiske, Daly, Brougham and others think that in a sudden whim he started for Europe. Charles 8. Spencer thinks he has gone off secretly to begin life anew under anew name. Judge Bra- dy thinks he has gone crazy, and has flung himself into the river. Two or three men have been found who say Hall said to them that he was going out of town for a week, but his confidential clerk will hear to nothing of the kind, believing that Mr. Hall has been foully dealt with. | Super- intendent Walling is Hall’s personal friend. He has pat the entire detective force to work. None of those who had enjoyed Mr. Hall’s fullest confidence can under- stand what the sudden disappearance means. Mr. Hall was on trial three times for neglect of duty as Mayor, but was not convictied, the jury twiee disagreeing and the trial once being ended by a juryman’s death. ~~ ——____— RAISING A TEMPEST IN A TEA-POT. ‘‘We regret to see,” says the Ansonian, “that numbers of the papers of the State persist in uneonscious misrépresentations of the bill as passed by the Legislature, for from the, positions taken it is evident that. they do not know the taw.

LOUISIANA. The National Republican, the Hayes or- gan at Washington, indicates very clearly that the claims of Packard, and the Louis- iana Radicals, are totally untenable, and that it is impossible for Hayes to do the things they ask. The only question to be asked when it comes to reeognizing the Governor of that State is, “which of the persons named in this connection is cloth- ed with the authority of the people to administer their laws 1” deal only with governments, making no inquiry concerning the origin of probable the duration.” The Republican lays down & programme which must ultimately re- cognize Nicholls as the Governor of Louis- jana, and adds, let the Commission do what it may, to this complexion it must come at last. The telegrams of Tuesday morning put the Louisiana matter thus : There is nothing new in the Louisidna situation beyond that a re-eanvass of the ditect vote for Governor will not be among the duties of the Commission, aa re-open - ing the question might taint the general tenure here.

Under the late management it took seven men to make up the gencral staff of the road, and for their services were paid ten thousand four hundred dollars, to-wit, President, salary per annum, 1,000 Vice-President, “ 1,000 Superintendent “ —¢ 2,000 Engineer, S ce 2.500 Master of Trans, “ a 2,000 Secretary, ze ise 900 Treasurer, ss a 1,000 $10,400 Under the new management, the number of officers composing the general staff of the road has been reduced to three, who receive hundred dollars, to-wit, ju-t five thousand seven hundred slollars per annum, Of course this arrangement will throw much and many kinds of labor upon the new president, bat fortunately, as we said when announcing his election, there is no place on the road that he is net compe- tent to fill. The next meeting of the Board of Direc- tors will be held on the tirst Monday in June, when a full report of the condition of the road may be expected. We trust that our friends who are apprehensive that the new Board of Directors might not take a practi- cal business view of the requirement of the great trust confided to them by Governor Vance, will now be found groundless. A sav- ing of five thousand seven hundred dollars a year at the very first meeting, if it means anything at all in these hard times, means business.” and business of a most eminent- ly plain, common sense, practical character. Major Wrisox, who was a large contractor on the road, has turned over his contracts to the State. Oxvicers ov Tus Westenn N.C. RR. —At a meeting of the Directors of the Western N. C. Railroad at Morganton, on Thursday, Major Wilson, of Burke, was elected President; Maj. 8. M. Finger, of Catawla, Secretary & Treasurer: Marsh, of Salisbury master machinist ; Henderson and Tom Murphey, Conductors. At an adjourn- ed meeting on Friday, of the Directors, at Tunnel City (vulgarly called Henry's), ry Finger declined to accept the office of Treasurer and Secretary, upon the that acceptance would require him to ¢ his residence from Catawba to either Mor- ganton or Tunnel City,—it beins; the opinion of the Directors that the office should be kept at one of the two places indicated. Mr. C. A. Cariten, of Statesville, who lacked only one vote of being elected at the Morganion meeting, was the next choice of the but upon the information to the Board that he coald not accept for the reasons given by Major Finger, Mr. G. P Erwin, the incumbent, was re-clected. The only objection to Mr. Erwin was that it was his misfortune to live in Burke county.— mark. —— aig A PHILADELPHIA COLONY FOR NORTH CAROLINA.

The Company denied this and proved that colored persons have the same rights on all their trains -as whites.

DIVORCES. those who live South as barbarians : “The number of divorced people in these Northern cities and States is as- tounding. It is one of the worst signs of the timex. Some years ago T was struck ed by another that this was a delicate aubject, the gentleman to whom I read it having marrieda divorced woman. After- wards I boarded at another house where there were two divorced ladies, both ac- complished and attractive persons. In yesterday's World, besides the incidental mention of two divorce cases in which Mr. Hall was employed, four other divorce cases came in for mention, and in to-day’s World there are seven others. Verily the signs are alarming. At the South a case of divorce is very rare, and long may it remain so. South Carolina boasted, and was justified in boasting, that there never had been a divorce granted in that State till since the days of carpet-bag rule, which intredaced men and bad cus- ae and bad laws wherever it prevail- -———~ep- —___ The Little Rock Arkansas Gazette is logical. It asks: “If Postmaster-Gener- al Key was appointed because he was a Democrat, would it not be the correct thing to allow him to appoint Democrats? And yet Key announces bis intention to give preference to Republicans. If the grand army of officials is to be retained, and thé few vacancies to be filled with Republicans, the mere appointment of a '| Democrat as the head of a department, without the power or inclination to make changes in the subordinates, does not cut & very large figure in 9 genuine civil-ser- vice reform.” —-~- —-é6m@e —-----— The Savannah Morning News represents the farmers of Georgia working with more vim than has been noticeable since the war. -The samé, says the Memphis Ava- to pay poh tid ‘Money.

Two layers of it be- tween bed.covers, are equal in warmth to a quilt. It is alsothe best material for polishing glass, and many other articles. \ A SMALL quantity of carbolic acid is re- commended to be used in whitewash and in paste for laying paper hangings. It will repel cockroaches and other insects. an@'also netitralize the disagreeable odor consequent upon the decomposition of the pastes! “Qo Newsparens will put the finishing touch to newly cleansed silver knives and forks, and'tin ware, better than anything. Rub them well, and make perfectly dry. They ‘are also excellent to polish stoves that have not been blackened for some lo gth of time. Ome tet Sanpwicues.—Take four eggs, two tablespoonfuls of bread crumbs, and one-half ounce of chopped parsley. Afte: beating the eggs well, add the bread crumbs, and then the parsley, and two tiblespoonfuls of water. Season and fry it in small fritters, and when cold put them between brown bread and butter. To: Menp Cutnaware.—Take a very thick solution of gum-arabic and stir into plaster of Paris until the mixture is of proper consistency. Apply it with a brush to the fractured edges of the chinaware, and stick them together. In a few days it will be impossible to break the article in the same place. The whiteness of the cement renders in doubly valuable. Preventive Coips.—The mistake is often made of taking great eare to put on extra wraps and coats when preparing for outdoor exercise. This is not at all nec- essary in robust persons. Sufficient heat to prevent all risk of chill is generated in the bedy by exercise. The care should be taken to retain sufficient clothing after etercise, and when at rest, to prevent the heat passing out of the body. Indeed, Pp rsons very often catch chills from throwiag off extra clothing after exercise, or from sitting about in garments the ma- terial of which is not adapted to prevent the radiation of heat from the body. Preszrvinc Scext.—Jasmine, rose or any éther flowers may have their scen pr_sérved by the following mode: Place them betiyeen thin layers of cotton wool. dipping these into the finest olive oil, and spripkling asmall quantity of fine salt on the’ flowets alfériately until an earthen or wide-mouthed glass vessel is qnite full. Tie the top close with a bladder, and place the Wessel’ in a south aspect exposel to theheat of the sun, and iu fifteen days when opened a fragrant oil may be squeez- ed away from the whole mass, little infe- rior, if toses are made use of, to the dear and highly valued otto or attar of roses. Stewep Lee or Mutron.—Make a nice stuffing of finely chopped beef suet, bread crumbs, an onion chopped finely, pepper, salt, and a little ground cloves. Make in- cisions in the leg, and stuff it well, tie a little bundle of basil and parsley together, lay in the bottom of the dinuer pot, and on it place the mutton; just cover with water, and stew slowly. Two hours steady cooking will be all that is required; when tender, take out the mutton and add to, the liquor a large spoonful of flour, eada| . with a little water, stir it well, in five minutes take it off and strain it: pour it back into the pot, and add a wineglassful of catsup, and lay the mutton in till it is served.

Spring bonnets are small. Bonnet crowns are broader. Tight jackets are fashionable. Net mittens are revived. Monograms are out of date on cards. The new round hats are very small. Yellow and tileul are leading colors. Mittens are all at once very fashion- able. The old Tuscan straw braids are re- vived. Open, lace-like straws are coming in vogue, Some mittens are white, others of black or colored lace. There is a revival of fashions demand- ing the use of lace. Only the plainest script letters are al- lowed on visiting cards. Paris uses more flowers than ever in trimming ball costumes. There were never more colored stock- ings worn than now; whatever their color, they have either dark blue or dark red — locks, No bustles are worn—indred, the mare closely the skirt or basqne-ia fitted below 2 belt, the oe itis consider- Sleeves are very small ma tight fitting; the only thing new pertaining to’ them being puffs of the material, from the el- -bow to the shoulders.

A petition has been presented to the Leg- islature of Pennsylvania, asking fog a re- vision of the marriage laws of the State. With old laws practically obsolete, stili remaining upon the statute books, and others, made from time to time, but ill adapted to accomplish their object, we cer tainly stand in need of some definite anil sensible legislation upon the subject. ing this, however, to our Legislature, there are matters relating to the marriage ques- tion which seem beyond the reach of the State, but in which Church and State have the decpest interest. As a nation we are ‘ust a century old, but we have arrived at that point of civilization when marriage it- self is becoming, in mapy cases, an jmpossi- biity, or batren of beuetigial resalts. In our larger towns anid cities, the number of persons, maleand female, remaiging uamar- ried Jong after they have arriyed at yearsof maturity,. is fapidly increasing, Domestic infelicity, separations and divarecs, are nval- tiplying, and large families of children, ex- cept among, fireigterfs, are of raré oceur- rence: We are on the down grade of popa- ‘ar licentiousness and national extinction, ‘xcept for supplies.from abroad, Among the prime causes producing this ibnormal state, is the extravagant style of living now censidered necessary jn order to maintain any degree of respectability in so- ciety. Marriage bas become a luxury which young men cannot afford to enjoy. Hence they remain unmarried, spending their time in bachelor amusements, club-rooms, flirta- tions or something worse; whilst young women grow into old maids, die in the struggle to keep up appearances, or are compelled to accept as husbands those who are bold enovgh to get married, but too in- considerate to count the cost. With the extravagant expenditures now considered necessary to respectability in the different classes of society, come pecuniary embarrassments, discontent, criminations and recriminations, heart-burnings and al- ienation of feeling, followed by a loveless life of wretchedness, if not by separation, suicide, or murder. As the family relation dies out, the very foundgtions upon which Charch and State rest crumble away, let- ting them down upofi the dangerous quick- sands of a Sensual philosophy and of a licentious socialism, Infidel reformers, and some well-meaning christians, to avert the evils threatening us, are trying to make women self-supporting outside of the mar- riage state, independent of man, But this can afford only temporary relief, to be fol lowed in the end by greater evils and deeper demornlization. We need reform in our theories.of social and domestic life, and return to thé Scripture. standard; to render the married ‘state possible and attractive to the masses ; dr We anust prepare to reap the consequences, that *e now see looming up} in the not far-distamt future.— Lutheran. ae ——---—___ o LIFE INSURANCE SALARIES. The Bife Companies are under exami- nation by the N, Y. Legislature. From the Herald of the 2ist we take the fol« wing items as to salaries in two great N.

The company had all its bond and mortgage assets loaned on real estute in New York State and within fifty miles of New York city, every dollar of which received his careful and watehful supervi- sion. The surplus of the serneey. over all liabilities, including “‘resérves,” was ample to meet all its policies in force. Al- though it only téalized four and a half per cent. imverest on its investments it equal- fit successfully establish his company. the witiess at the tinié he commenced was (nl 1,500, thongtr he left a position « f 0, theaverags sdlary and pércetitage receive t by him woald reach a littlé over $29,(00. His salary during 1876 was $37,- 000; that of the vice-president, $22,000; of the actuary, 20,000; of the secretary, $16,00); seventeen book-keepers $41,000; twenty-five clerks, $51,000 ; cashiers and traveling expenses, $35,000; medical de- partment, $47,000, and attorney, $25,000. In addition to these salaries Mr. Hyde ad- mitted that he had received allowances making an aggregate of $195,000. The allowauces, in addition to salaries, equal- led two and a half per cent. on certain portions of the premium income. The vice-president, actuary and some _ oth- er officers also received allowances on premiums, all of which was now abolish- ed and a fixed salary given. Mr. Hyde admitted that he was the Boston agent o! the Mutual Life of New York, for which he received an annual income of about $20,000, in addition to the compensation mentioned. —_>-— Ir the November election had been held on the basis of the popular vote, giving the ininority in each State its proportion of electors, Mr. Tilden would have had 190 electors and Mr. Hayes 179 electors, so that not only on the vote by States, but for the action of the returning boards of Florida and Louisiana, but also on the popular vote giving the minority its due weight, Mr Tilden would have been duly chosen President of the United States. With these facts irrevocably recorded in favor of the nominee of the Democratic party, we should never lose sight of tle tact, that the Democrats to-day constitute ®% majority of the people of the United States, and hy rights are entitled to con- trol the government.— Ral.

We might fill our paper with accounts of Gov; Hampten’s passage. through this State on his return to South Carolina from his visit to Washington. He was greeted with all sorts of popular demonstrations of joy and ‘honor at every point along the road where the people had an opportuni- ty to see him., He stopped at Charlotte over night and so it was reserved for her spirited citizens to distinguish themselves by one.ef the grandest displays ever of- fered to a public man. Illuminations, banners, musie, speeches, processions and flowers\in profusion, made the little city as gay. asia bride decked for the nuptials. Gov. Hampton had no tongue equal to the occasion, though he spoke briefly in hearty recognition of the. honor done him. the way home, through his own State, the people flonked t the depots to greet him. It would be tedious to detail these numer- ous evidences of love and esteem. The men huzzaed, trumpets were blown, can- non’s xoared, the women kissed him and filled his car with wreaths and boquets. It all ended at last. iu Columbia, whither he was escorted by a large delegation who met. him at Charlotte. At Columbia he made a speech to the people, and as this nyay possess somie peculiar interest to our readers we present it in another part of this paper. LEXIN@TON—DAVIDSON COUNTY.

Chamberlain ‘and’ those who will stand by him, have’ one or two objects in view. First, either to foree President Hayes to directly recognize Hampton, if he means to give him the aid and comfort of the administration, or failing to do this, to have the question referred to Congress at its special session; for sach legislation as the urgency of the situation demands. The hope seems to be, that if a political debate is started in Congress, that the delay will cause a reaction in sentiment favorable to Chaniberlain, and probably induce Hampton to forego the pledges he made to President. Hayes, and attempt to gain by foree or coup de: etat what would involve a tedious delay through forms of law, The Supra Court decides that the million and a half, appropriated to the centennial, reverts to the United States, and was not the property of the steck- holers. This reverses the decision of the lower court, and depresses centennial atock over fifty per cent. A dispateh from Sheridan confirms the report of Crazy Horse is coming in, and that Sitting Bullis moving towards Cana- da. The President will have his summer residence at the Soldier’s Home grounds near the city. Hereafter he will refer office-seekers to the heads of the depart- | | ments. Clerk, Adam’s roll of the house, at pres- ent, shows nine seats held open for con- test, viz: Louisiana, two; Florida, two; Missoun, two; Seuthj. Gapolita, ioné ; Colorado, one ; California one.

Wasuincton, April 10, The Tribune's New Orleans spécial says: President Hayes’ Special Commission labored four heurs yesterday, with a dele- gation of the leading business men of the city, with the object of persuading them to organize a movement to compel the politicians to form a consolidated legisla- tare of all the members fh both rival bodies, whose election is not contested. The members of the Commission made earnest speeches; the business men were, | how ever, immovable. They said that rather than rap the risk of having to en- dorse Packard as Governor, they would resist with arms, so as to make « military goveriunent necessary. To-day’s experi- ment ends this compromise plan. The Commission may try to bring about an adjournmeat, on the basis of a legislature made up from the face of the pariah re- turns. This is the-enly compromise that has the least prospect of acceptance by the conservatives, Wasuincrow, April 10, Very extensive revenue frauds in the manufacture of tobacco in North Carolina have recently been brought to light, and the department proposes taking vigorous measures to bring the parties concerned in them to speedy punishment. Some thirty manufacturers in the county of Surry are charged with participation in the fraudulent tranactions, and have been indicted before the grand jury of the Uni- ted States Circult Court fur the Weatern District of North Carolina, within the past few days, through the efforts of the reve- ue agenta, Brooks and Wagner.

But the department bas signified its intention to fully sustaiti the agents in the prosecu- tion of these and all other violations of the internal reveneue law, and has assor- ed them that the power of the goveraniént will be invoked to protect them against all such saita.

Mr. Chairman, my Countrymen and ; Countrywomen of South Carolina: Travel-worn and weary, I have cone back amongst you, to make my report to my constituents. Those constituents are the people of South Carolina, and coming here, to my surprise, I find a weleome which has stirred my lieart to its inmost depths. It is not. a welcome that con- uered people would give to a conqueror. Tisiax no blood-stained ensign; I bring | no trophies from battle tields, bat come to | say that the cause in which you made we ‘ean standard-bearér+the eautse of truth-- been victorious, and once more the banner of South Carelina—not éartied through bloody ticlds, but through those | more glorious ones, of peace—tloats oyer the State, free, disenthralled, re- nerated and redeemed. And how hi 1s it been redeemed, my friends? Not by blood, not by violence, but by that poten- | tial agency, the ballot. It has been re- deemed, because the hohest men of South Carolina, of all races, and of all parties determiued to wipe away the seandal | which has hung so long over her history. It was because we saw we had to fight for very existenee. We saw that all we held dear in the past was sinking or being blot- ted awa dreds o " years was being blotted out. That our government was to pass into the hands of aliens and strangers, and trust- ing alone in (rod and the justice of our cause in the hands of God on high, we would make one more effort to redeem South Carolina, and if she should go dewn it would be with our baziners floating, anc with no stain to disgrace the tause. And you fought a battle that has never been equaled upon the American Continent. I searce realized in those days of peril and gloom, the grave issues that were hanging on this contest. I did not real- ize thém, until I went to W ashington, I tell by that a musket shot in this town would have meant civil war on this Con- tinent; and what stopped it? [cries of, you sir.) No, my countrymen; it was be- cause the people of South Carolina were the most law-abiding people in this coun- try, and because they had risen above considerations of party and deterusinad save their State, I tell you. that ' tho an you have won this fight through the men, or rather the women+~for it was: the wo- ae of ee Carolina who won the vie; because there Was not & woman in ae Beate who would 6k upon a man’s ne turned his back upon our cayse. {The rest of this seutence was lost in cheers.] But, my friends; you won the vietory at the ballot box. ’ But then came the more insiilious attack upon us by fraud. From the 7th day of November to this time, the verdict of the people of South Aarolina, expressed at the Fallot box, has pbeen stifled. Wehavea pealed as peace- fal citizens should have Woxte; not to vio- lence, for you know there is not a man in Columbia who does: not-know that whén that crowd was staiiding out there fo ‘might after night, it reqaired bat a wor eben it overy vestige of opposition eirky. t,every opposition aw Bert te that I aie in, eaten ts our forbearance ; thit I was safe in re- ae you fo respect the laws, and ing you that Victory would surely nates if you would be patient and forbear- 5 courts reeoguized our govern- ment; but still a usurpation aon in the way.' I knew that it would not do to re- sort t> force to remove it ; I knew that in fullness of time, victo y would be full; Seaniete apd and ample—i told you so. i a that if you would only wait pa- |, y, and trust to the justice of your cause, and to the Almighty, you would be successful. And now, I come to tell you that you have been successful. You haye now, by all practical recognition that eould be given, the government enforced. did wots ere, let me aay to you, that I, ont ge to Washington to ask ion I did not go there to offer or to hegr terms ef compromise, nor to lay my case before any tribunal.

I pledged myself, and the platform on which I stood declared that every citizen of South Caro- lina, white or black, was equal before the law ; aud I solemuly. appealed to heaven and declared should I be elected I would see an équal administration of the laws. I -promised that-when 2 was: no ‘ and I re-iterated See pled time oe th and breadth of this broa Sea of ours. I “Told the colored men I would fulfill those promises to the letter, that if the party which had nominated me, should at any time go back on them, if they attempted to take away any of the rights now enjoyed by the col- ored people, they would have to find some other instrument—I would resign. (Cheers.) And TI say again, now that vic- tory has come, now that the whole State recognizes the ument which has. been Helected, now that all the has been placed in my own hands, here where L took the oath of office, solemnly swearing that I woudhtbobey the constitation of the United States, and of this State, I say once more that I intend to carry out every pledge, and to be Governor of the people. Now my friends, how ‘can we bring about this consammation so devoutedly to be wished ? How can we bring peace happiness, and prosperity to our ‘people? We can do it in but.one way, and that is, you must observe the laws. I here en- join it upon you—I do not issue a procla- mation ; I do not give an erder—but I ask my frends of South Carolina, the people whom I have trusted, and who have trust- ed me, and done me more honor than any people ever did a man, the people ‘whom love more than I love anything in this life. I ask them to carry out my wishes, | want every man to constitute himself a conservator of the peace, té see that there shall be no violence—go around and tell | his neighbors, that if there is bloédshed or violence, we shall lose what we have rained. ‘To appeal to them to carry out this policy of peace. The only difficulty, that seemed to stand in the way at Wash- | ington, was the fear that when those troops were taken out of the way at the State House there would be violence, And they asked about it, and I pledged my jhonor, mark me friends, I pledged my honor, that not one single man should go into kat State House unless he has some bugipess there, simply to inform the citi- zens that I requested them not to go there. And L felt assured there would be no vio- lence, or excitement, dnd that the laws would be obeyed. Have | promised too much for you? (Cries of No!) You have never deceived me, I know that you will carry oat this promise ; I beg you, I be- seech you.’ You have trusted me, trust me alittle longer. It isimportant for you, itis highly important for Louisiana, and for the whole country, that you do what I ask. (Crics of we will do it.) I requested the President that the troops should not be removed until I got’ here. , When that order comes, let nobody go to the State House. Just let it stand until I want it; and i will tell you when F want it: Icar- ried a letter to the President ftom a Fed- eral soldier who has been stationed in the State House. He said the place was filthy and so fall of vermin, he wanted to get away from there. I w ant the fire en- yines to play through it for awhile, and I want the convicts from the penitentiar tp seour and fumigate it, and then we will have 4 nice Legis atare, and all will go on ‘a acefully. : The Governor here alluded briefly to tHe kind receptions tendered him on his way to Washington and return. He was proud of his people, that their noble ac- tion in time of trial had elicited the ad- miration of all sister Stateg, .. He continued, ‘‘your destiny is now in your hands, it is for you te shape for weal, or for woe. You can by imprudence or violence undo the labor of months, and bring back to us all the scenes of anarchy, misrule angl corruption which have pre- vailed. Or if. you are prudent and. dis- ercet us you have been, you, can seon place yourselves in a higtier and better — :You will see both races and both } parties willing fer awhile to forget the bit- térness of past strife, and ready to clasp hands and move on to lift our old State up.

In a sermon preashed by Rev. Charles Hammond at the.re-dedication of a church at Union, Conn., July 25, 1866, he says: | ‘Many of the earlyrimbabitants of this town [1734] belonged te the Scotch Irish emigration of that period. These people were really Secoteh, and had no trace of ee ne id they have any sympa- thy thi religion.’ Vhey hated Popery, a8 bad. as.their ancestors did, who emigrated from Scotland to the north of Ireland in the tine of Cromwell. In mat- tets of religious doctrine, they harmonized with the. Parttans; batin chureh polity, they were Presbyterians of a decided ty pe, and fer this reason, doubtless, they were not not cordially weleomed in New Eng- land. In their search for homes, they went chiefly to the new towns and border set- tlements, evidently for the purpose of avoiding conflicts with those whose social jnstitutions were already established. Large numbers went to the southern coun- ties of New Hampshire. Palmer, in Mass- usetts, wére’kettiell by them; and sey- eral familits*cane heré, some of which wereamong the very first'settlers.

BY HESBY STRETTON Author of ‘Lost Gip.’ &e. V.—Tue Last Srep. How the days sped I do not know; but they seemed to by lie the- waterfall, down which aa plunge into a flood that will Every morning and every evening catried us on to the terrible day when we ‘iust quit our old house'for’ éver. I kept my school open till the very last; for this was no time to lose a single penny I could win. There was no other house near that place where we could move to}; for the lowest rent was five shillings @ week; and school would be lost, as well as our home, and I must try to begin again in a strange neighborhood, on the other side of the town, where the rents were lower, What was to become of Transome and me bafiled me whenever I looked forward. He did not lie in bed any more, but sat beside me in the chimney-nook, whilst I taught the childrén, now and then stretching out his hand,—his poor hand,—crooked and drawn together with rheumatism, just to touch me. I knew after a while what he was thinking of then, though he never put it into words. Well, we had towelome-of our goods ; the old loom for one, that used to make such a busy sound in.our cottage early and late. The rest we carried with us to the other side of the town, into a small house, in a close, pent-up street, where the wind never blew across one’s face with a sweet, fresh breath. I did my utmost to gather together a few scholars ; and sometimes I had a few, and sometimes none. Tran- some took to setting always at my sidé; and if I was away for half an hour, do- ing a few errands, he’d welcome me back as though I had been away from him all day. He began, too, to talk more, at . times quite eagerly, aa if he was afraid he might some day want to tell me something, and would not have the chance. I neyer knew him talk so much as that long, dreary snmmer, when we were treading slowly down those steps poor folks know of, step after step, downwards and down- wards, never stopping, till the last step crumbles away under one’s feet, and all is lost! We trode on the last step, and it crum- bled away, underneath our old feet when the first sharp touch of winter eame. We had kept up till then, pawning and selling our few goods to buy bread for our mouths. But when the biting cold came, and our blankets were in the pawnshop, and I had not a morsel of flannel to wrap about Transome’s poor pained limbs, and no fire to give a little warmth to our worn- out frames, then I knew that all was lost! I was sorely bewildered and beset.

To-morrow we must go into the Union workhouée. Nothing else lay before us. We had our pnot be a 4 eae ‘My Y he said, tenderly, very ten- denly, and my mind called back the sound of his, yoiee es we came home picking flowers along the eaval-side, ‘we mun remember as *t_ were God’s own deed upo’ th’”cross. If ' ‘Hie sahpopr (ej ,» His y : ‘Oh ! if it was only me,’ I cried, ‘I could bear it?’ he said, smiling on me ; it’s just the same wi’ me. If it were na’ for thee, Ally, aw could go cheerfu’ and glad to th’ union ; for aw’ve noan so longtolive. But never to hear ‘thee say “Good neet” as I fa’ asleep, nor “Good day,” when th’ morn breaks, that’s th’ hurt, lass, that’s th’ hurt.’ In the dark cold night I teok the few things we had left and pawned them, spending part of the money in coal and food ; and thinking that with the rest we might come out of the workhouse again in the spring, and I could get a little school together once again. I boughtasniall store of tobacco for Transome, for I knew how sorely he wouldaniss his pipe when we were parted. The long, long night wore away too soon ; and then I went to the reliey- ing-officér and got an order to go into the House. There was a glimmer of pale sunshine in the sky as Transome and me crept along the streets towards the Union work- house, feeling as if everybody we met knew where we were going. He could ot drag himself along save at a very slow pace ; and here and there, wherever there was a doorstep to an empty house, we were forced to sit down and rest. Tran- some did not speak many words as we went along, for he was very weary with the journey ; but every now and then his poor fingers clasped my arm more tightly, as if he meant to say, ‘Cheer up, Ally; it must comeright in theend.’ Butatlength we reached the end, the long, blank wall, and the great black doors ; and though we stood outside full five minutes, looking into each other’s face, no help came. 1 was forced to ring the loud, clanging bell, and we crossed over the black doorsill into the workhouse.

Aw hear th’ man comin’ to us.’ He stretched out both his hands to me, and I put mine into them, and we kissed each other solemnly, as if we were both about to die, and enterinto another world. I saw his face quiver all over, and then there came across ita patient and quiet look, which never left it again, never! I knocked at the dour before me, and pass- ed in ; just catching a last sight of him turning away with nobody to lean upon, Then the door was thrust to between us, and I could sec him no more, I did not heed much what was said to me, and I did not look about my new dwelling-place ; only I followed a woman, who passed through many rooms, where the windows were high up in the walls so that nobody could reach the sills, and where there were groups of women all dressed alike, chattering most of them ; and there was a strange close smell. Oh! how @iff- erent from the sweet air in our old home! At last when I came to myself as it were, I found I was sitting on a chair at the head of a little narrow bed, in a long room, with twolong rows of beds down the sides of it, and a narrow path up the middle. All the beds were alike, and the bare, white-washed walls closed us in, with nothing to be seen throngh the high win- dows, save a little bit of grey November sky. There were old women all around me ; some of them many years older than me, even a few of them bed-ridden ; but they seemed too dull to take any notice of me, as if everything that was like life had died out of them, save the bare life itself. Well! there’s no need to tell you much about the workhouse. Most poor folks know more of it than they care to know, either through their own tioubles, or the troubles of their friends. I don’t say a word against it; only I could not be with Transome. There! think what it was to have been his wife forty years, with searcely OTe (fel sig ei Poe se nh: in the Business soon erected a substantial building and kept a more showy establish- ment. After a few years he followed his predecessor, and by the sami means—de- lirium tremens. Saloon No. 2 was kept by a young man who rapidly accumulated money. Of three brothers, directly or indirectly con- nected with him, one yielded to the power of whiskey; another left the business; the third still lingers. Delirium tremens, af- ter a wiiile, sent the principal to his final aceount, leaviny little of his’ ill-gotten gains for his wife and children. Saloon No. 2 did a large business, and for a time seemed prosperous. But in a few years delirium tremens closed tlie career of the husband. The wife kept up the businesss, took another husband, and erected the best brick building in the place. Within two years the second hus- band followed the first, and a tornado wrecked the fine building. Itwas repaired, and the widow, though often seen on the street drunk, still held ont. “Last of all, the woman died also.” Her death-bed presented one of the most appalling scenes conceivable. The torments of the world of woe seemed to have kindled upon her before life was eXtinct. Her shrieks of agony were terific. “Snakes and devils, snakes and devils! Oh take them off. I know they are not there; but oh, there they are—snakes and devils.” She liter- ally tore the flesh from her limbs in her agony of terror. So she weut to her fear- ful account. Thus, within about seven years, eight persous, after helping to destroy hundreds upon hundreds, fell victims to their own deadly compounds; and of their ill-got- ten gains, little remained.

Dr Davis, the writer, formerly a resident of Fayetteville, now lives in Salisbury, and is well known in both places, The gentlemen to whom he refers as cognizant of his invention are also well known and of the very highest respecta- bility. The following is the letter: Sauissury, April 3. Mr. P. M.

Gray, Bell and others. I claim to have invented this “Phonetic telegraph,” as I named it, more than ten years ago. At that time I made drawin iitusteating fully my invention—but did not romsed to obtain a patent until I should have perfected the machine. I refer you to. Mr. Jefferson Robinson, of Fayetteville, to whom I described the apparatus, and also to Dr. Haigh, of the same place. From the latter gentleman I borrowed, about that time, some works on Anatomy, inorder to study and fully acquaint myself with the structure of the human ear, so as to fully understand it in reference to the working of the ‘Pho- netic Telegraph,” as I then ealled it: I also made pen and inkdrawings of the in- strument which I sent to the editor of the Scientific American, with a request that srg be preserved, as I wished by means of them to claith priority of invention, if my right were disputed. There aremany others, all gentlemen of reliability, to whom I can refer. My apparatus was even more perfect than that of Messrs. Gray and Bell, inasmuch as it could Write or register the sounds ina distinct lan- guage, a thing they have not yet accom- plished.

Yet tens of thousands are prepar- ing for a similar harvest. ——~=>—______ (Selected for the Watchman.) There is something in the vice of intem- perance which is eéxceptionally mean. Not only, like all other vices, is it debas- ing and evil in itself; but, having the property of flourishing in company with every other vice, its companionship sinks each one of them down to a still lower level of shame and degradation. A liar is bad enough, in all conscience; but a lidr who is & drttikeri sot is still more ‘detest- able, ‘A thief'is very despicable, but a dranken thief is incalculably more so. And so it is all through the catalogue: every vice is made more hateful and repulsive by being linked with intemperaice. Moreover, there is no other vice which so effectually extinguishes the ordinary the Lord been deceiving us all these years? Had He brought us to old age, and to the very gates of death to forsake us at last ? Transome had been faithful, if a poor ignorant man can ever be faithful to his God. If either of us had been unfaithful, it was me ; and surely the Lord would not visit my sins and short commings upon him} fADyY’ said Transome, one day, ‘bring th’ book, and read me again how th’ bless- ed Lord came to's to end upo’ th’ cross. So I opened my old Bible, so worn that it was worth nothing at the pawnshop ; and I read aloud to him, shivering gpa - Shaking with cold as I read, There ‘was not a spark of fige in the grate, or a crust of bread in the eupboard. I had not 5 penny in the world, and did not know where to turn to find one. We had not any friends.

Vithout often to Transome, I did not need to think % To reproduce essential food of man,’ of them. How far even I had read I did a brangle between us, and never a sulking quarrel, and all at once to be shut up in different parts of the same building, with only a few walls and yards to part 18, yet not be able to see him, or even send a loving message to him. I wet my pillow with my tears that night; ay! more than when my Willie died, as I wondered and wondered how he was faring, and if he was warmly wrapped up, and how his pains were. But I could do nothing for him, no more than if I was lying in my shroud and coffin. At last my loneliness and my trouble drove me to remem- ber Him that is every where, and was with Transome as He was with me. ‘Lord,’ I said in my heart, for it was not altogether a prayer such as I had generally said to Him, ‘Lord, if they’d only make his bed comfortable, and wrap him up well in the blankets! Do put it into their hearts, Lord, for he’s tried to serve Thee faithful all his life long.’ ; After that I felt a little easier in my mind ; E fell asleep, and dreaming of the days when Willie was alive, only some- times the child was Willie, and sometimes Pippin. I suppose it was becanse J had close to my pillow the little box that held the curl of Willie’s hair, and Pippin’s piece of money, It was the only thing I paratus is more perfect than that which they exhibit. My state of health alone has prevented my proceeding to establish my claim, to which I can bring many wit- nesses. I am somewhat surprised that those of my friends with whom I held communication, many years ago on this subject, should not speak out and do me that justice which should be shown an in- valid; but I suppose that so few of our citizens are in ths habit of appearing in print that that is a reason for their si- lence. Now if there is any honor connected with this discovery or invention, (it was not a discovery with me) this honor should be assigned to that State of which the in- ventor is a citizen. Is it not so? At any rate I Jeave the matter in your hands, sat- isfied (as I said in the first of this communication) that it will be a pleasure to you to do justice to one of your old fel- low citizens and men healt! oo. his making any especial exertions in his own behalf” Iam, I think, sufficiently well known to you to insure your attention to and interest in this matter, and I leave it for the present in or, hands.

I find, ‘averer’ no as though they would never open again, save, may-be, when we were borne out through them in a paupef coffin. Tran- some leaned more heavily on my arm.

But there was nota face to be seen at any of them ; and s mournful stiliness filled the place.

A liar may be courteous, cleanly, humane, capable of faithful friend- ship and ardent affection, and too honest or too proud to steal; but a drunken man never can be either of these. In his drunk- en mothents he is rade, unclean, brutal, prone to insult or injure friend or wife or child, and he will descend to the lowest dépths of baséness and dishonesty. So again, a tlifef may have all those virtues which are possible with ‘a liar, and may in addition despise lying; but the dranken man, having no capacity for any virtue and attracting to himself every vice, finds it easier to lie than to speak the truth. Proverbially, no one places any reliance on his word or even upon his sworn testi- mony, This is especially the case with opium eaters. It is even worse with religion than with the merely moral virtues. A man has no conscience when he is drunk; his spiritu- ality is extinguished absolutely; he cannot either fear, or love, pray, worship oradore; he is unable to see his sin, and therefore cannot be truly penitent for it or repent of it; the example, the sacrifice, and the resurrection of his Saviourcan make no the Holy Spirit enter that unclean dwell- | ing; it is impossible for the love of God to find room in bis heart, and we have the shall stand firm and united in their efforts to re-establish good government and con- stitutional liberty.

The Convention spent the whole day in discussions, which are spoken of as able and highly creditable to the delegates. Numerous places were proposed as suitable for the location of the school, but the final action was to re- fer the question to the decision of the Ed- ucational Board, with instructions to lo- cate as near the center of the colored pop- ulation of the State as possible, Rowan was represented by W.

Ferrell, Esq., chairman of the board of Wake county commissioners, has on his | place in Oak Grove township a terrapin which is 35 years of age. In 1842, Mr. Ferrell says, heand anolder brother, at that time both very small boys, were playing | ona huckleberry ridge on his.father’s farm when they came across an ordinary land terrapin. They caught it, and his brother taking out his jack-knife, cut his name on the terrapin’s shell. They then turned it loose and Mr. Ferrell has seen’ it’ every year since. He saw it. not long ago, and says he can go to-day and find it: within one hundred yards of where his brother eaught it, on that huckleberry ridge, 35 years ago. There is no telling how old it was then, This case furnishes proof of a generally entertained belief that these reptiles are very long-lived.— Raleigh News. a ei The number of vagrants has grown beautifully less since the establishment of the chain gang.—Charlotte Observer.

All who want portraits of these two popular leaders can now be supplied. —_——Q————_—_ Health.—Very good yet, but the time of year is at hand when the Commissioners usually order an inspection of back lots and yarda. They have demonstrated the utility of this-feresight and precaution. An ounce of preventative is better than a pound of cure, say they, and citizens have sustained the wisdom. If they will eu- force the use of the dry dirt deodorizer where needed they may prevent a visita- tion of diptheria, scarlet and typhoid fe- vers. Psa See Precept and Practice.—The Town Com- missioners teach one way and act another on one subject at least: They forbid the erection of wooden buildings within 400 feet of the public square and put them up themselves within 200 feet. A few years ago while breaking the law themselves they senta delegation of their body to wait on a citizen and tell him he must not do it. This is only a little funny, but it is another illustration that corporate bo- dies have no conscience. ‘They erect a wooden shed over the apparatus of the fire department of the city ! ———_4—. )) —— Overman, the Shoe Store man, has done | anice thing.

COTTON OIL—ITS MANUPAC- OR LEE AND USES. Among the-great number of special in- dusteles dreated hy cotton ja‘the manu- , from the seed. Andalthough the ail with our bodies than the shirts on our backs, Bat, not to begin with the end, it is better te describe ita manufacture be- fore stating its destination, Probably there ought not to be a catton geed oi) mill in the country, for the seed is ‘as manure and asfood, Its seed is a strong fertilizer when crushed and or when rotted alone; or even when plowed under whole, it is a materi- al return to the earth for its generosity. The dried plant jtself has but little strength, but it helps to loosen stiff soila, and therefore is plowed under or allowed to rot on the surface when the field is pre- pared for a new planting. The seed, when prepared as a fertilizer by crushing, potting, or by grinding the dried oil cakes, js used as guano, in hills of corn, in drills of other grain, or spread broadcast on meadows and gardens. Another profita- ble use of the seed on a farm is to boil it with corn or meal and give it to cattle. It is excellent feed for milch cows in this form, or as meal made from the pressed oil cake. The farmers who will sell their cotton seed at $7 per ton, delivered at the rail- road, are few in Alabama, happily for the improvement of the country. In Louisi- ana and Mississippi, where the soj) ja rich and stock is scarce, the mills get enough seed to be profitable factories. There are Here there about 10 in those two States. are but two, and they cannot get sufti- ecient seed for continuous work. Georgia, whichis said to now use more fertilizers than.any other State in the Union, has no oilmill. This should be counted a great addition to her thrift, if the bull can be pardoned, The cotton seed as it comes from the gin has still some cotton lint. It looks like a white cocoon, about one third of an inch long and half as thick. In a mass he, seeda adhere slightly together and ook like alot of dingy cotton wast. From such a heap they are shoveled into a hop- per, in which a screw, revolving in a trough, divides them into small bunches and empties them into elevating cups on a belt. This elevator empties them into arevolying screen with meshes smaller than the seeds. Here the sand, dust, and other small particles of extarneous matter are sifted out and the seed passed into an- other elevator that empties it into a sec- on@l revolving screen. This has meshes large enough to pass the seeds, but too email to pass the cotton husks or bolls, stieka, stones, jack-knives, and horseshoes, that often come with the seed. From there the seed pass into a gin, made ex- pressly for the purpose, to remove the short lint left on it by the first gin. An elevator takes jt to a huller for removing, br rather breaking, the shell, The huller ina heavy cylinder, provided with knives, that pass between teeth so close together that are, cut in. two or three pieces, "The: cotton ginned from the seed passes. to a | machine, and is there ed.for use.

As soon as a manifesta- tion of gapes appears, he confines his chickens in a box, one at a time, suffi- ciently large to contain the bird, and places p course piece of cotton or linen cloth over the top. Upon the top of this he places the pulverized lime, and taps the screen sufficiently to cause the lime to fall through. This lime dust the fowl inhales, causing it to sneeze, and: in a short time the cause of the gapes is worms, which had accumulated in the windpipe and smaller air vessels. The chickens should not be confined until they are suffocated. EE Oe ee (Prom the Scientific American.) THE GREAT SUSPENSION BRIDGE BETWEEN NEW YORK AND BROOKLYN.

The following letter to Charles O’Conor, will show, how- ever, that he had adopted an intelligent though an altered course toward the public : ; Lupiow Sr. Jai, December 6, 1876.— To Charles O’Conor, Esq.: Sir—I take the liberty of adressing you this letter, in view of the fact that your position, as the counsel designated by the State authorities in my matters, has pro- fessed solely the public any factious or personal inferest. Here- tofore I have met my troubles with every resource at my disposal. Possibly, in a mistaken sense of ¢ as were meted out to my transgressions and my misfortunes. manner of my return to the wards of this prison, realizing the events in the city, in the State and in the nation, which Ia cerity in me to say that I am indeed over- whelmed; that all further resistance be- ing hopeless I have now none to make, and now seek the shortest and most effi- cient manner in which I may make un- qualified surrender, It is not my purpose to disputed or ap- al, or further resist the suits which you ave against mo in the name of the State and the people, I propose forhwith, to place at your disposal a full surrender of all I have left. f property and effects, and respond at once to such examination in this connection as may assure you and the public of the good fuith of this assign- ment, as well as show the entire amount and disposition of all I have possessed, so far as you may wish it to be detailed. Iam an old man, greatly broken in health, cast down in spirit, and can no longer bear my burden. To mitigate the prospect of a hopeless imprisonment, which must speedily terminate my life, I should, it seems to ne, make any sacri- tice or effort. During the early stages of the suit and proceedings against me, I was ready to make restitution and reparation as far as in my power. Entanglement with the interests and councils of others delayed and defeated this. I regret that my means have now become so utterly in- adequate. I would not make the futile offer if I had not some assurance through your published statements that the vindi- cation of principle, and the prospect of permanently purifying the pubtic service, are the objects you have in view as being more desirable than the recovery of mon- ey. Ifin any manner you may see fit to use me in any sueh connection, I shall be only too glad to respond. Trusting im- plicitly in your high reputation and char- acter, [ask to make only a single reser- vation, not as s myself, but where- ever others may be concerned. Leaving my personal and property interests to be put to the fullest test of examination and publicity, I would hope to have any mat- ters affecting other persons restricted vo your private knowledge and discretion. Knowing; as you do, every material fact already, it would. be unavailing for me further to reveal or to withold any details) you may demand. I only ask in qualifi- cation of the utmost frankness that your more reliable jud. t shall take the re- sponsibili publication and nae of such matters only as necesary for the end you wish to advance. For - ent I have no legal counsel. I shall not employ any to act in the spirit of is commun and conform to the usual usages of courts. I send this by Foster Dewey, whom I have heretofore employed as secretary. He is directed to receive res any instructions or sug- gestions, answer in detail as te my circumstances, truly yours, I remain, ve Wat. M. Twp, It is undetatood that Mr. G’Coior sent this letter to Attorney General Fairchild with bis favorable recommendation, : and | that Mr. O’Conor also signified his inten- tion to terminate his more active connec- tion with the Ring proscentions, now practically ended. Acttg from this view, the Attorney Genera] has himself made several visits to Tweed, and carried on the examinations of effects, and especially of information which Tweed had to turn over. A large pile of checks, vouchers and evidence is aceordingly jn the control of Attorney General Fairchild. ‘Tweed’s release has been provisionally agreed to, and will, as soon as due forms are complied with, be carried into effect.

It was with some difficulty that Mr. Bartlett got his head back into the bot, withont letting out more than a foot or two of his body. The anaconda has not poisonous teeth, but has great and dangerous powers uf crushing. The box with the snake weighed over 2 ewt. It was with much dodging that An- aconda was conducted by two keepers to his new quarters, where he at once re- treated into'a bath of warm water, from which as yet he has only emerged once or twice. Itis difficult to give the exact length of the snake, as he is not to be méasured with as much ficility as a fath- om of rope. He is now lying in three parallel folds in his bath; we kuow. the length of the bath, and we calculate his length to be between eighteen and twen- ty feet—a tremendous fellow!

He covers his bath over at night, The duck is always gone in the morning, Anaconda Like our own British snake, it is found in marshy, damp places, and he feeds upon animals which come down to drink at night. Mr. Bartlett has ascer- tained that the last meal of this snake had consisted of a young peccary, the | horney part of the hoofs having been dis- | covered in the stones at the bottom of the | cage ; there are also the hairs of another | animal, whieh has to be diagnosed by mi- | croscopists. This tropical American snake is also called the aboma. The provincial name is el traga renado, or the deer swal- lower. He never interfers with men, al- though of course he will take his own part if attacked. It is greatly to be hoped that this magnificent snake will in time get an appetite and recover from his travel-worn appearance. His color may be described as buff, with very dark markings on the upper parts. His companion in the cage is a magnificent reticulated python (ular sawa), canght at Penang. He has been at the gardens since August, 1876, and has not eaten any thing since he arrived. He shed his skin recently, and is now most lovely to behold. It would be impossible to describe the tints of the new skin (a splendid lacing of bronze, blue, gold, and black), except by saying that they are quite as gorgeous as a peacock’s plumage. “I have had some snake skins tanned, a lady having promised to wear a dress snake skins is too good a point to be overlooked.” A good illustration of the equal power of two votes is given in a story of Judge Story, which he was very fond of telling. One cold and stormy election day he felt it his duty, as usual, to go to the polls. He ordered his carriage for this purpose, but, juat.as he was getting in, a sudfen thought struck him. Turning to his col- ored driver, he said: “Haye you) voted yet?” “No, Massa Story, I was waiting to drive you first.” ‘“‘Well,” replied the jadge, “and who do you intend to vote for?” *T shall vote for A.,” answered the driver. “Well,” continued the judge, *] should vote for B., so yon may put up the carriage again, and we will both stay at home and pair off our votes.” The coachman was of equal importance at the ballot box with the learned judge. The Medical Times prints thé following as a copy of'a label from a bottle of medi- cine supplied by a firm of druggists in Cork: “Caution. To all medicines for out- ward application this label is attached to the bottlds, in order to distinguish it from others for internal use, but persons una- ble to read should not be allowed to ad- take a dose without first perusing the label.” a Burstixa or a Reservorr Dam.—Re- cent rains in New England resulted in the breaking down of the dam of a reservoir at Staffordville, Conn.

Eleyen of the grand old éaké in‘eapital square and about 500 handred trees ‘in other parts of the city wepe aptoeted or otherwise destroyed. With such a wind, the falling of so many trees im a city, many of them oaks of sev- eral centaries growth, the (lestruction of fencjes, roofs and bujjdjngs, was neres- sarily The elty papers give lengthy details, atrange tq say this fearfal visitation passed withoat instant death to any hamafy being. Several were wound- ed, 9a OF, . ‘two dangerously , and many made hair breadth escapes. The deso- lation was sad to behold.

In the brief space alloted this notice of his death no proper written of the many vi his‘char- acter, ip all the relations of life, was just after the war, not to settle among us wejand become honest citizens, but to prey - }wpon us daring onr prostration beneath pthe heel of power.

The proclamation of war by the Czar of Russia gives special interest, says the Baltimore Sun, to: the question of the effect it will-have on the grain and pro- Visién “markets: of the United States. Lintiting the question at tliis time to grain and flour, apd td the needs of England es- pecially —she being the principal importer of breadatuffe—it is of interest to know what her yearly requirements are and from what countries she draws her sup- plies. The value of the imports of corn (grain) and flour into England during the yenr 1875 amounted to £53,086,691 sterl- ing or, computed in our currency, to $265,433,455. For the past thirty years this annual demand, for breadstuffs es- pecially, in excess. of home -production, has steadily and heatily increased. “Ih 1845 the imports were 37 i her head. In | 1855 they rose to 50 fbs, in 1865 to 93 Ibs and in 1875 to 196 Ibs. Of the countries from which the sappliesare drawn the Uni- CTS. PER YARD &c._ 1G, HATS, BOOTS, SHOES, FURNISH NG!

RAIL ROAD MEETING. April 380th, 1877, on motion B. Bailey, Esqr., was called to the chair, and P.M. Bailey was appointed Secretary. At the request of the Chairman, A. A. Harbin explained the object of the meeting, to wit: The calling of the meeting wne for the purpose of considering the necessity of building the Rail Road from Salisbury to the Virginia or Tennessee Line by the way of Mocksville. ‘The charter for this Road having been issued by the Legisla- 13857. The Editor well recollecta, at least the Senior, what stiring times we had over this scheme in 1857, when the la- | mented John W. Ellis and Chas. F. Fisher, were spokesmen on the part of Rowan at a meeting held at Davie, after the electiou in 1857, at which time the question of subscribing 3100,000, (One handred thous- and dollars), had been submitted te the voters of the county, which subscription was authorized to be made by A. G. Car- depe-|tor, Esqr., thea chairman of the old county nent eaith not, that a geutleman who had} Court. After had explained the tepneeae che offered the fol- lowing: ‘‘ Whereas, the Legislature of North Carolina at its Session of 10856-'57, did pass an Act chartérivg a Rail Road from. Salisbary, bythe way‘ af . Mocka- ville; to the Virginia or’ Tenvessee Line west of the county’éf Surry’; and whereas it is of very great importance to the citi- zens of Mockaville and the people of Davie that suid Road.ghoald be as speedily cas possible constructed: Therefore be it Re- solred, That the Commissioners of the Town, subspit to the voters of the Town, on next Monday, the question whether the Town authorities shall snbscribe $10,000. (Ten thonsand dollars) to the ca ital atock of said Road.” re Williamson being calted ney; fe epouitied Rp the call % & very finds some and facetious manner, urging the necessity of the enterprize—Mr. H. B. Howard being present was called upon, who manifested. a deep interest in the project and wodld do all in his power to aecomplish such good ends in view. Mr. T. B. Bailey being caHed upon, al- so responded, Urging the netessity of such enterprise and manifesting a spirit of very p great liberality in accom ptishing 80 * ends‘to be-dttended by the project. Mr. Williamson said considering the very vital importance of the. qnestion before the meeting, if the mover of the resolution will withdraw it he would offer one that would be more appropriate to the occas- sion, wherefore A. A. Harbin withdrew his resolution, 3 and Mr. Williamson offered the following :” Resolved, That the chatr- man appoint a comunittee of three to aseer- tain if there was such a charter io existence and what are its provisions, and that said committee report to an adjourned meeti rw df to be held in the Court-Honse on the Monday night in-May next.” The ebair- man appointed the following u on said next Monday night, mittee.

The foe told a tale of consump- tion, and go did the hollow cough which kept her awake through so many of the hours, and tried to gain ease by shifting her po- sition; and at times stretched out her hand for a spoonful of cough-mixture, which did not seem to give her much re- lief. There was nothing for it but to wait with patience, hoping tliat before morn- ing dawned she might have an two'a sleep.

But even afterwards, wher a school : chapel had: been erected at that end of the cry: parish, and the poor heard the sound of the church-going bell close by, Sunday after Sunday, and had the gospel brought to their very dpers, the Granta nvevereu- tered the new place of worship, thongh they had no Jenger the excuse of distance to vive to the clergyman. It isfeared that the whole family would have grown up in a state of ungodliness, if Rhoda had not happily begun a_ better state of things as regarded herself; and her example was not withont its influence. She had graduiflly persuaded her mother to send Sarah and two younger ones to the day-school; and though they did not | always attend regularly, and were some- times kept at home with no good reason, they were on the whole getting on well. She also did her best to send them off to the Sunday-school, and even coaxed her brother ‘Fom to accompany them now and then ; but this was a hard matter. Rhoda was not without kindly visi- tors, and mitny people were interested in the. case of the young girl, wasting away in consumption and yet bearing her troub- les with so much sweetness and patience. The clergyman, Mr. Monsell, often visited her, and the lady in whose district the cottage was; her Sunday-school teacher, too, came in to talk and@ read with her. These visits, however, comforting as they were, ouly formed @ small part of her life ; and though the gecollectiog of a kind word, or look, or pressurg of the hand, was soothing to her, it was fot emofyh to keep her cheerful through the loag, weary days and nights.. She suffered much ‘weakness, and pt-qjmes could hardly bes the noise the childres made, and the loud iced of her- and brothers. The floor, too, was sometimes damp, and cold gig hg fQund pipe Gy into the room, and its untidiness was distressing to her.

There was but small quarter shown on either side, and the ed- itor and I found ourselves fully employed | in looking after the interests of our party, and in replying to the peppery our rival contemporary. of electioncering, everything said con- cerning the Conservative candidate was reported in extenso, and I prided. myself upon the accuracy of my work. The ether party also received justice at our hands, although only the more important speeches, such aa those of the candidate himself, and his principe! supporters, were naticed in their entirety. Such was the state of affairs within a few days of the election, when, one morning, the editor came into the office looking in anything but au amiable mood. The canse was soon explained. The chief movers in the Liberal camp were to give a grand banquet that evening, at which several celebrities were to speak, and it had been determin- ed to exclude any representative from our journal, This would not have mattered much, but an announcement was sent forth stating that an exclusire report would ppear iv the next jsaue of our rival, and this caysed our editor to entertaig an un- controllable desire to steal a march upon the enemy,—more especially as the diuner was on the eve of our publication, while oug riyal would yot appear natil twp days later. . Rashly, perhaps, I undertook te procure a full report of every speech, without con- sidering how it was to be done. But (parenthetically) at that time I was se- Vecatiy engaged to’ be married to the edit- ér’s danghter, and before starting on my exploit I laid the whole matter before him, and stipulated that, as the reward of my success, his consent should be given to our union. This was very readily agreed to, and, with the determination of thus winnittg a wife by strategy, I sat down to reflect on how I should commence opera- tions. T had heard and read of many plans, which had been succesafully adopted un- der similar cireiimstances, but none of them sé¢emed suited to my case.

He listeved patiently to my representations of how important it was to my future | prospects and liappitieas that I should be at the dimuer, bat coald fot offer any sug- gestion whereby I might attain my wishes. “If you had been a waiter,” he said, with a congoling émile, “instead of a re- porter, I sliould have been most happy to have engaged you.” A happy thought instantly flashed across my mind.

However, there was no time for useless talk, fur the notes had to be trans- cribed, and we both worked with a_ will for hour after hour, keeping up a steady supply of capy to a dozen smart eom- positors during the night, till the paper was ready for press. The surprise of all parties was very great in the morning, when our journal came forward with @ six-column report of the speeches at the political banquet on the preceding evening. Our i tare were completely taken aback, for the could not imagine how the repert had been obtained, for nothing appeared more certain than that no reporter from any other journal had been present. The speakers were no better pleased, for their utterances had been reported much toe literally to afford them any satisfuetion in the perusal of them, while the entire Lib- eral committee lapsed into a state of hope- less astonishment. We, of course, langh- cd and said nothing; but, for some weeks afterwarda, I had to give evasive answers to the many inquiries from friends as to my reasons for having denu ded my face of my moustache and whiskers. The affair proved a good thing for our naper, for it net only increased the cirea- ition, Wut gave us a name for enterprise, which we succeeded in keeping. As for myself, I gained a wife by what I venture ta eall a clever trick, and our Conserva- yative member, whe was sucedasful in getting returned, 'when the joke was un- } folded to him, came to our: wedding, and evinced hia appreciation of my exertions on his behalf by bestowing a few appro- priate presents on the bride on the ecta- sion, which I have ever since valued high- ly.—P.

[By Telegraph to the News and Courier.} New York, April 22. The Times to-morrow will getat the fol- lowing letter, written by ex-Senator Ben F, Wade, which is now published for the tirst time: Jefferson, Ohio, April 9.—To Mr. Painter, Washington, D.

You ask whether I re- member what I said in favor of President Hayes ip my endeavor to procure his nom- — U.H. do remember it, after what has transpired, with indignation and a bitterness ef soul that I never felt before. You know with what untiring zeal I laboredfer the eman- cipation of the slaves of the South, and to procure justice for them before and dv- ring the time I was in Congress, and I supposed Governor Hayes was in full ac- seed with me on this subject ; but | have oe deceived, betrayed, and even huimil- iated by the course he has taken, to a de- gree that I have not language to express. During the first month of his administra- tion we find lim closeted with two of the werst and most malignant enemies of the colored race that can be found in all that slave-cursed region, and there consulting with these malefactors how best he can put these colored peoplé ander the iron heel of their most bitter enemies, and re- duce them to a condition intinitely worse than before they were made free. 1 feel that to have emancipated these people and then to leave them unprotected would be a crime as infamous as te have reduced them back to slavery, and for Hayes to do this to the men who had, at the hazard of their lives, given Irim the votes without which he never could have had the power to do this terrible injustice! No doubt he meditates the destruction of the part oc elected him. A contemplation of all fills me with amazement and Maraeeaal: ble indignation. My only consolation is Shon I evel proenssed te'se" hove a ee than I ever to’ u mannet been déceived: Some: have at- tempted to. excuse him by saying that he means well, but hell js paved with. just such good intentions.

Mr, Ross Winans, one of the many in- ventors who have amassed colossal for- tunes, recently died in Baltimore, Md., at the age of 81 years. Mr. Winans began life as a .merehant’s clerk, but laid the foundation of his fortune by rearing horses. His first invention was a plow, that had a large sale. In-1336, he became interest- edin the bnilding of rolling stock for the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company; and for the succeeding thirty years of his ife he devoted himself to the designing of railroad ears and focomotives. The heavy freight engine known as the camel-back is his invention; and he also claimed te have originated the modern cight-wheeled passenger car. His shop became famous, and be built a large number of locomo- tives, and in this way accumulated the greater part of his wealth.

Tom was go- ing tuo, but Rhoda said, ‘Tom dear, do stay and read to me a bit.’ And the boy stayed behind, though he regretted for the moment the stroll with the dogs into the sunny green fields. He came and sat by the bedside, and Rhoda found out the Sunday lessons in the Jarge Bible. He spelt out word after word, and she told him what they were; but owing to his having been s8o little at school, there were few even of the most simple which he knew ; still it was something to get him to sit down by her side and make this effort; and Rhoda sent up a prayer to Ged to bless this reading of His Book both to Tom and herself. Mrs. Grant was in the meantime bnst- ling about, getting dinner ready. She put down the small joint of pork before the fire to roast, and set the greeps and pota- toes and the current-puddiig on to boil. Soon after one it was all ready, and Grant and Richard came in, the younger child- ren having returned from church some time before. Dinner over, Rhoda sneceeded in coax- ing Tom to go with the others to the San- day-school, and then she tried to get some but this was impossible. Grant was talking loudly to his wife and Richard about his morning’s sport, and the nar- row eseape they had had of being foun’ out by Farmer Lee. He had brought two rabbits with him as his share of the spoil, and laaghed as he described how cleverly he had hidden them when he saw the farmer coming ; and how the other men had stayed behind the hedge and heli! the dogs till he was quite out of the way. And farmer Lee had asked him, why he and his sons did not go to church ou Sun- day morning; and this seemed another good joke to Graat. He passed the rest of the afternoon lounging iMy about, sometimes smoking and sometimes quar- relling with his wife, or speaking sharply “to the children, Towards evening he grew sleepy and surly, and scemed to find hie day of rest an utter weariness, as‘it must bave been, without Bible- -reading or attendance at God's house.

NASP RAL SCENERY. Place has wonderful effect on haman feeling and human actions. The original inhabitants of Scotland and Switzerland, and those of the sterile plains of Arabia, were, savayes alike, the latter having, however, the advantage of letters which theformer had not. Butthe former, though savage, were romantic, poetic, patriotic, and human; whilethelatter were sensual, selfish, thievish, nomadic, and Arab. How comes it, that when the natural scenery is picturesque there is in human character something to correspond, and that where Nature spreads out her sandy plains, un- relieved by growth or verdure, human nature, too, seems barren of every out- growth of beauty.

SS Oe VANCE AND THE COLORED PEOPLE. (Raleigh News.) A new paper called the Star of Zion, has just been established in Newbern. It is to be the organ of the African Mcthodist Episcopal Zion Chureh in North Carolina, and is edited and managed by Rev. J. A. Taylor, a colored minister. Iu the first number, which is now before us, we ‘tind a communication from Rev J. W. Hood, m which he speaks as follows of the recent meeting in this city of the State Board of Education, when a namber of prominent colored men froin different sec- tions of the State met with the board: “For the first’ time in the history of America a Democratic Governor presided over a convention of colored men. And for Governor Vance, it must be said that he filled the position with a grace as na- trral and easy as though he had always been used to it. And on the other hand the delegatés showed their appreciation of his presence by refusing to allow him to rétire, as he proposed to do, after he had stbmitted certain propositions for their consideration. He supposed that they would feel more freedom in discussion if he and the board retired. But the dele- gates with one’ voicc demurred, and re- quested him to retain the position he was Aiitns With ‘so much satisfaction to the con vention. “Thongh polities did not get into our proceedings i in auy form whatever, yet 1 think this meeting will tend to break the color line which is getting very weak in our good old State. +a GOV.

Goihg one day to visit ‘the accustomed haunt, one of the gentlemen discovered a party ‘of Federal soldiers encamped upon the very spot that contained his hidden treasure. The reader can easily imag'ne what a cold shudder ran through his frame at the bare idea that his ‘‘pile” might be discovered and removed. For along time did agonizing fear torture the bosom of our worthy citizens, and probably they real- ized, to its fullest extent, the proverb of Solomon, “How much better it is to get wisdom than gold!” After a delay of many days it was determined to disclose the seerct to a Federal officer and solicit his protection for the retnoval of the hid- den property. This course was followed with success. The party, accompanied by the offtcer, went to the camp, and, to the utter astonishment of the soldiers, dug up the glittering pieces over which they had been innocently eating and sleeping for so long a time. It is said that they rav- ed at the bare idea of rebels being allowed to rob their camp! Our citizens were much relieved of a terrible load of suspense, and their joy can be imagined. A bureau for dispensing rations to the needy was established by the Fédéral commander and proved to be a very great relief to our people. Some of our best citizens were compelled to avail them- selves of the opportunity thus afforded to replenish their larders. It was amnsing to note the rush made upon the distribu- ting agents for the one article of coffee. Many persons, both white and colored, had not perhaps seen a grain for two or three years, and enough to make a pot or so was taken in lieu of two or threé pounds of bacon or flotr. The colored popnia- tion came in for much the largest share of Federal chagjty in the way of rations, but no one was refused upon proper applica- tion. During the visit of General Grant a re- view of the entire army took place. It was the grandest sight cver witnessed by our people. Grint occupied a stand in front of the old market house on Fayette- ville street. Sherman sat on his horse near the south gate of the capitol. The eolumn was formed farout on the Holleman road. It came into Payetteville street at the Governor's house, up thiit stréet to Hargett, down Hargett to Wilmington, up Wilmington to Morgan, along Morgan as far as the old masonic hall, thence into Hillsboro street, up which it proceded out on the road nearly to Ashbury. Over one huridred thousagd troops were said to be under arms. Having been refitted in every particular before leaving Goldsboro, they appeared in admirable plight and preséent- ed a marked contrast to our own worn out army. About the 25th of April Gen, Sherman left the army in command of Schofield, and proeceded to Savannah, for the pur- pose of directing matters in South Carc- lina and Georgia. Upon his return to Raleigh arrange- ménts were made for the disposition of the forces under ‘his command. The Tenth and Twenty-third corps, together with Kilpatrick’s calvary division, were ordered to remain in North Carolina until further orders. Most of the remaining portion of the army was ordered to march to Wash- ington.' Gen. Hancock took the route through Louisburg, Warrenton, Peters- burg and Richmiond: “General Slocum’s division went by way of Oxford, Boydton, Virginia, and Nottoway Court Hose. On the 24th of May a grard review took place in Wastington City, and on the 30th of the same month Sherman issued his fare- well orders to his troops. After ftiis, commeénced the great contest for réstora- tion. For the past twelve years the ver- ed question has puzzled the brain of polf- ticians and kept in°tonstant inquietude the minds of our people. The present year bids fair to bo one of unusual ex- émption from state tarmofis.

His views on any public question are of value. In a recent interview he said that no Democrat could honestly find fault with the policy of President Hayes toward the South, for he had granted the South- ern Democrats all they had asked or that they could have obtained, even if Mr. Til- den had been declared the duly elected President. While the Democrats should be fully satisfied with the President's course thus far, Senator Thurmin ahticipated ‘that at the next session of Congress there would be serious trouble among the Republicans. He did not doubt that the Southern Dem- ocrats felt grateful to the President forre- storing to them the right of local self- government, but he did not believe that would ihiluce them to leave the old party organization. He farther said that he did not favor the otgahization ‘of & new patty, because he Believed “the! Demdéeratic ‘party,’ both North and South, stood upon a better foot- ing thin it‘had fo years, ‘and’ that now, wien thé dutlook for succéss ‘in’ tie near futtiré' waé so bright; ‘it’ woullf be folly’ to talk of entering the new lines of party af- filidtions and leave” what he considerdd a nearly ¢ettain success for a doubtfil ex- periment: He said that he had no doubt fhat some of the Southern whigs who were specially favored personally by the Administration might be ‘ready to go into any scheme which promised them further honor or that any great number of the Southern men of his acyhaintance would be willing to cut loose from the old organization, now that its propects for fature success looked so bright, ‘As for himse]f Le was conterit to stand by the old party. ‘Mr. Tharman’s view is sound, with one single exception. Itis hardly true that the Democrats of the South feel “grateful” to the President for restoring to them the right of local self-government. No doabt they feet on the subject; but “grateful” is not the proper term to apply to their state of ind.

W Asuixeton, May 9.—Senator Gordon filed with the Prsident yesterday the tes- timony taken in Northeastern Georgia by a commission appointed by the Governor under instructions of the Legislature, to investigate the misconduct of the United States Marshals and Internal Revenue of- ficera.

(Special to the Baltimore Sup.) CHARLESTON, 8. C., May 8.—Privateand truthworthy aes have been received here that the question of the course to be adopted by the Democratic State govern- went in regard to the State debt was sub- stantially settled to-night by the House committee of ways and means after pro- tracted consultation with Gov. Hampton, Attorney General Connor and other lead- ing men. Hitherto there had been a strong disposition on account of the extreme poverty of the people to let the whole matter of the State debt go over until the the I!th, they advanced two columns against Khatzubani heights, skirting the river Kentricoi, which they stormed with a loss of 12 killed, 116 wounded, and an | immense loss to the Turks. ‘The Turkish accounts claim a victory in the same loeal- ity. The Turks were entrenched on Khatzubani heights, which are near Batoum. The Russians passing Bucharest carry flags bearing the double Greek cross, which are only carried when the war is a religious one, The Danube, which has been very high is falling, The Turkish force at Widdin is well prepared for an attack from the Rouman- ians which are daily expected. The Porte is anxious about the arms and munitions still due from America, and is represented as angry with America for allowing the Russian squadron to re- main in American waters. The feeling against England is becom- ing bitter, the Turks thinking if she in- tends assisting, she should do so on the Danube and in Asia. Turkish vessels are taking soundings off Odessa. One man only escaped from the monitor sank near Ibrail. Loxpox, May 14.—Mrs. Challis, wife of the American Missionary at Listonia has died of small pox. The Times’ Vienna correspondent ex- plains the vote in the Chamber. He says: Although the resolution adopted by the Chamber speaks of severing the bonds be- tween Turkey and Roumania, and the Emperor’s government at the conclusion of peace to secure an independent position, it Jeaves the government to use their dis- eretiou jn acting according to circum- stances, ao that for the present the whole matter is shelved. Bueharest Journals state that the Tarks have crossed the Danube at Ciochanesh, stolen 1,200 sheep and killed a shepherd and some cattle, The Telegraph's special from Batoum Friday, midnight, says: “About five o'clock this morniug the Russian forces which had been largely augmented for the purpose, advanced with batteries of field artillery, and made a furions attaek upon the heights defending Batowm on the land side, which were occupied by Bashi Bazouks. ‘The Ottoman treops were en- trenched in the usual effeetive manner upon the slopes and ledges of these hills, and upon the advance of the enemy they opened on bis columns a terrtble aud well sustained fire of cannon and musketry, which literally mowed the Russians down in swathes. ‘They fell by scores and bun- dreds, on the plain below the Turkish positions. During their attempts to make way against this fire, a body of Turkish horse and fuotmen taking advantage of a thick forest, broke forth upon the flank of the Russian cabmen, and effected a great slaughter, The Muscovites being upon ground perfectly open, and having no chance but to fight or fly, in a short time the spot which was the scene of this flank movement, became covered with dead and dying Russians. But the enemy quickly brought up reinforcements, and the battle was renewed with much determination for maby hours. The efforts of the as- sailants were desperately maintained, but towards midday their artillery fire gradu ully slackened and they at length with drew. A correspondentof the Telegraph de- scribing the battle near Batoum says; “I myself was an eye witness of this im por- portant engagement from the first to the last, and can testify that the Ottoman soldiers behaved with gallautry which was most admirable. They had however, dar- ing & great part of the action, the advan- one eMtrenchiwents un igh ground, regular session next winter, and even i those who favored immediate action were generally willing to fund all unpaid cou- pous up te January, 1870, aud to providé for the regular payment of interest only and after that date. But the committee ewing mainly to the influcuce of Goy. Hampton, has decided that the State shall at ouce shoulder the financial burden placed upon it by carpet- bag misrule, and that the contemplated State tax of five mills shall be increased so as to make provisou for the payment in full of the coupens on the State consolida- ted bonds of January and July of the pres- ent year. The appropriation bill, as finally agreed upon to-night, and which will probable be reported to-morow, includes the following provision: ‘That the sum of three hundred thousand dollara, or s0 much thereof as may be necessary, be, and the same is hereby, appropriated to pay the January aud July, 1877, interest upon the consolidated bonds and certificates of stock of the State issued under the pro- visions of the act to reduce the volume of the public debt; provided that no part thereof shall be ap>lied to the pay meut of the interest upon the said consolidated bonds and certificates of stock until the holders thereof shall have submitted the same to the inspection and scrutiny of a commission raised for that purpose at the present session of the Gener] Assembly, and until said.commission sIMll have de- termined the same to be valid and bona fide.” The figures of the supply bill, owing to the adoption of the provision in the ap- propriation bill to pay the interest on the public debt, have necessarily Leen in- creased, the tax levy for State purposes being seven mils iustead of five mills. The resolutions providing for the or- ganization of the comwission to scrutinize the bonds will be presented to the House with the appropriation and supply bills. —_— THE DOOM OF MORMONISM. [N. Y. Herald.) Of these “twin relics of barbarism, polygamy and slavery,” the one was more than twelve years ago extinguished in this country, and the time has come for deal- ing efliciently with the other. The extir- pation of polygamy, which now lie before us, is bnt a slight task in comparison with the truly formidable and gigantic one which we had to confront in uprooting slavery. The surviving “twin relic” is coufined to a small patch of country, whereas slavery was intrenched in fifteen States of the Union. Polygamy has no supporters or defenders outside of Utah; but slavery had a powerful and influential body of apologists diffused through every part of the United States. The Mormons live in a territory, and in the Territory the authority of Congress is supreme and unlimited, 8o that fn rooting out this pes- tilent nest of abomiuatioms no question can arise respecting the iufringment of State rights, There is nothing, therefore, either iu the maguitude of the evil, or the strength of its defenders, or the number of its apologists, or its powers of resist- auce, which justifies auy comparison be- tween the difficulty of dealing with polyg- amy und the colossal obstacles encounter- ed in the overthrow of slavery. It is so easy to wipe out the foul blot of Mor- monism that the Government will be in- excusable if it longer shrinks from this duty. ae ; ee om repadiates the fraudulent bonds ened. raga Te nk bis brothers ia me in rincipal and interest amount to $8,000,000. 4 _ udge Martin, of the Cirenit Coart of Avtanate has declar- ed the act passed in 1869 by the es bag Lagiclotere, by Which "86,00 00 ungouatitntional, emmnis on foot, and | | }the State of North Carolina. ” them, lcs sod Viegas Rail, ympany,” , which an vibe, sacs corpora a body politic, for the Sieg wlasty- alee! oO years, and by name may sue and be sued, plead and be tna in any Court} uy of Law and Equity in thé tate of N. and C., may lave es, to use a common seal, eae “in ; ‘and to | Equit: , holding, leasin and cone estates real, poenepel. ant Faris a etait acquiring the same bY git | eos, or de 20 far na hall all be objects herein, coutemp further ; and mit Comps ma may enor other rights and fel naar Sa se | ma 4 wean 8 for its y, ot ineon - Sintoue-with the Oonetitation nd Lavwe of Sec. 2.

Two very large brick cotten facturies add much to the place. From here to Fayetteville, a distance of 55 miles, we find nothing but the long leaved pine and the deep sind. For jou‘icen miles after leaving the suburbe of Rockingham, we travelled without seeing a solita buman being or. even, a habitable dwelling.

He is prohibited by law from killing wild abimals, such as rabbits, hares, foxes, partridges and pigeons, while his cats and dogs are killed by his landlord’s game- keeper, lest they might injure the game. This game feeds on his crop, and he must submit to see his fields sometimes ravaged by them. He is obliged to raise such crops as his landlord considers best for the land. He is bound to all these require- ments by an exacting lease, which makes him a species of serf to his landlord.” _— > Never whip a balky horse, for the more he is whipped the crazier he will become.

Wines or Pouttry.—The wings of tur- keys, geese, and even of chickens should never be thrown away. Many people, es- pecially in the country, keep them simply to brush off the stove or range, but there is nothing better to wash and clean win- dows. Chamois or buckskin is very good, but wings are better and cost nothing, and their use is an economy, utilizing that which would be thrown away. They are excellent to clean the hearth or stove, or furniture, but best of all to wash windows, begause the corners can be easily and per- fectly cleaned by them, leaving no lint behind them as when cloths are used. Use these wings, also, to spread on paste when papering walls. There is nothing that does that kind of work better. Mux ror Wasuinc Disnes.—In wash- ing dishes fill the dish-pan half full of ve- ry hot water, and put to that quantity a half cup of milk. It softens the hardest water, gives the dishes a clear bright look, and preserves the hands from rough skin or ‘chapping” which comes from the use ofsoap. It cleans the greasiest dishes without leaving the water covered with a greasy scum. Iron pots, sauce-pabs, and dishes of any kind in which food is cook- ed should be filled in part with hot water and sét on the range as soon as the fod is removed, to be Kept hot till ready to wash them. This sends most of the grease from the’ pan into thehot water.

Daniel—T had it straight and we had to guess. We said because one is Dan you was, and the other is Dan you be, which'was rejected as being too simple and too utterly angrammatical, upon which we submitted as a grammat- ical amendment Dau you were and Dan you are, but Mr. Flaxeter said it didn’t fit. Then we said becanse Daniel was aproph- et and the Danube is a foreigner, anda forerunner and a prophet were pretty much unlike, but this was rejected. Then we said because Daniel bad no pocket to put it in, and gave it up. Mr. Flaxeter, greatly pleased, said. “Because Daniel was cast into the den of lions by the rancorof aking, and the iron- clads cast rancor into the Danube by —no, that isn’t exactly it; Daniel, by the ran- cor of a king was cast into the mouth of the lions, while the Turkish iron-clads, by the rancor of ah—ob, shocky, how does as a die when I came in here—Daniel was cast into a den of rancorous lions, and the Danube is receiving the cast anchors—now I'm getting it—the Danube is—plague on it, your fool answers are enough to make a man forget his own uame.

He arose and went away weeping, and we have some fear that we will never see that conundrum again.— Burlington Haik- Eye. THE FISH PANIC. There seems to be a panic in this State in fish, or on fish, or about the propaga- tion of fish. We have published a good deal on the subject, more to please others than ourself. An old countryman said to us recently that the whole scheme inaug- urated by the Government to breed fish in our Rivers and Creeks (and which re- ceived the fostering attention of the last State Legislature) was only a scheme to propagate idle and lazy boys and men— that in his neighborhood and country gen- erally, many men, black and white, (too lazy to work on the farm,) spent their time on the banks of Rivers aud Creeks fishing, and that any encouragement to the fishing propensity of such fellows was a nuisance and injury to the county in- stead of being a benefit. There is a great deal of truth in what the old gentleman said. Like the ““Morus-multicaulus” humbag about 25 years age, when every man thought he could raise silk worms enough to make silk for his whole family and some to spare, so will the planting of fish eggs at public expense have many friends until the excitement subsides. After all the nice little fishes that see the light of day in owr North Carolina Rivers and Creeks from the spawn put inte and pre- pared in tin buckets by State and Nation- al Government agents, return to the ocean, or are frozen to death in our highland streams, then ‘‘fish-stories” will be a sab- ject more of realization than theory. But, seriously, gvod lawyers do not think that the Legislature can pass any Coustitutional law to interfere with dams on rivers and creeks for the purpose of al- lowing fish to pass. Besides that, many good people think that dams for the ben- efit of Factoriés and Mills are of more im- portance than the passage of fish up or down a stream. Ifthe dams are forced open by law the owners of land on each side of the stream can (and many will) post their lands and forbid fishing on the banks. We hope none of onr “‘fish” pwill get mad on the fish subject. Those who catch fish with a “silver hook” are more fortunate than those who cateh with line or seine.—Charlotte Democrat. A paper in South Carolina is called the Nut Shell. It is appropriately edited by a Colonel (Kernal) and published by a Crackman. Scepticism haa never founded empirea, established principalities, or changed the world’s heart. The great doers in history have always been men of faith. With the utmost care one can make but & very few friends; whilst a ‘host of ene- mies may be made without taking any care at all. Riches has no real advantage except in the distribution of them.

It is only over chamois leather that the skirts from Worth can be strained tight enongh, At Bristol, the other day, the Mayer gave an entertainment to the Lord Mayor of London, and the occasion seem- ed so important that one lady guest sent to Paris for her dinner dress. Jt was so tight when it came that she had to take off garment after garment before she could get into it at all. And then. she had to sit down at table, I am told that her sufferings were considerable during the repast; but her worst misery was the re- flection, “How shall I get up again?” Eventually she did get up, thanks to the gentlemen on each side of her, who pull- ed down the refractory garment by main force. At the very last drawing-room in Buck- ingham Palace a similar catastrophe took place. A lady made her bow to the Queen a little too low for her “kicking strap,” (as aman would callit, bat I dare say Mr. Worth has some prettier name) and it slipped down so far that she could pot get up again. The Lord High Chamberlain himself had to come forward and set her straight.—English Gossip in Harper's Basar. —————— TELL YOUR WIFE. The following advice from a correspon- dent of the Country Gentleman is worthy of acceptance, but we would add a little more to it in the form of a suggestion, that in case you are a farmer and have no wife —get one. “If you are in any trouble or quandary, tell your wife—that is if you have one— all about it at once. Ten to one her in- vention will solve your difficulty sooner than all your logic. The wit of woman haa been praised, but her instincts are quicker and keener than her reason. ‘Counsel with your wife, or your mother, or your sister, and be assured light will flash upon your darkness. Women are too commonly adjudged verdant in all but purely womanish affairs. No phy- siological students of the sex thas judge them. Their intuitions, or insights are the most subtle, and if they cannot see a cat in the meal there is no cat there. | P " _ ted - <iem a ‘ WEA) : PM | is t, wis se ay . a 7 he . a ee ist 2. da netrry oe but souls communicate anseen, cr pe Pr ; 7 $ found important to secure respect for himself and eredit for his name.

A thoughtless person is of necesity a coarse and selfish person, when people do wrong to their neighbors, apd give pain unnecessarily, to say ‘“‘I did not think” puts forward no plea for tolerance, but is rather a reason for condemnation, and an additional peg on which to hang a sermon of rebuke.

Many a home has been happily saved, and many a for- tune retrieved, by a man’s full confidence in his wife. Woman is far more a seer and a prophet than a man, if she be given a fair chance. Asa general rule wives confide the minutest of their plans and thoughts to their husbands. Why not re- ciprocate, if but for the pleasure of meet- ing coufidence with confidence? I am certain no man sneceeds in the world as he who, taking a partner for life, makes her the partoer of his purposesaud hopes. What is wrong of his impulse or judgment, she will check and set right with her al- most universally instincts. And what she most craves and most deserves is confidence, without which love is never free from shadow. E> aa NORTH CAROLINA AS A HOME. We endorse the following eulogy from the Wilmington Star as to North Carolina being one of the most choice places to live : “Her's is indeed a goodly heritage—a land of noble men and of pure and lovely women. “The sun as he walks the hea- vens in his diurnal round” looks down upon no fairer or dearer spot, nor more blessed home, for here “the glory of hie beams is rivalled by the” sweet and mel- lowed “Aight of nmanity and love” that is shed throughout our favored borders. Go where you may you will find no more delightful home, Seek the world over for & elime more favorable to health, for suns more genial and fractifying, anil for nights of more unclouded beauty and splendor, and you will seek in vain. “Tt is a land of corn and wine ; it is a land of gold and gems ; it is a land of flocks and herds, of orchards and meadows; it is a land of good morals and steady habits;” a land where civil liberty ig dearly cherished and the laws are obeyed; a land where the school house aud chareh apire stand side by side; where virtue is esteemed and honored, old age is reverenced, and the marriage relation is held as sacred and blessed, simple manners and frugal habits, where unpretending but generous hospi- tality is dispensed, and where the. people are “‘not forgetful to entertain strangers,” & land in which “an honest man” is re- garded as ‘“‘the nobeleat work of God,” and where anblewished honor is held as the very flower of virtue.” —————-a-___ A Relic of the Olden Time. —Dr, Benja- min Franklin invented and constructed three clocks, and one of them is owned in the Old King’s Arms Inn, in Lancaster, Engiand.

The politician who has all this advantage easily distances all the rivalcandidates, fur every voterhe speaks wit omes instantly his friend. The very tones in which he asks for a match to light his cigar is often more potent | than that of a Webster ora Clay. Polish- ed manner has often made hundreds suc- ceasful, while the best of men by their hardness and coolness have}.done them- selves an incalculable injury—the shell being so rough that the world could not believe that there was a preeious kerpel within it.

Milked the cow twieesince then and ‘don't know whether she had on the bell when, you milked her!” “No I don’t,” said the wife, gaining confidence, ‘‘and you fed ber twice and didn’t miss the bell. You fed her at the end where the bell was, and I milked her at the end furthest from the bell. Now I wonder who ought to have missed it first. !” The husband kicked the cat across the room and went out and butted Miis*head against the side of the house. | m+ The Angora Goats from Asia have been introduced into Texas very largely within the last few years.

There was a loud sound of ‘engines and clattering of chains, and colliers, covered with black dust from head to foot, were hard at work in all di- rections. “After’ pissing one pit, Tom came to a second, and here he stopped to look about him. He saw gretps of ditty -looking éottages, where the colliers with their wives and children lived. with what looked like a huge pit; and then, at intervals, there were men going up und down in what was call- ed a ‘skip,’ a sort of basket drawn up and let down by a chain. Every now and then he heard the sad-sighing sound made by the blast furnace, and among the other noises there was an incessant hammering of boilers going on.

Attimes Tom got so tired with his hard work that he thought of giving it all up and finding his way home. He received no letter from his family, and this helped to make him more unhappy still. Once after »® Weary day’s work he made up his mind that he would bear it no r, but leave the colliery life and go home. He was walkivg away from the pit, when Mr. Randall met him and stopped him, The good man made him tell him his trouble, and then said, ‘Courage, lad! you must not threw it all up beeause the work is hard, and the men are quarrelsome and hard to get on with.

Marshal Douglass has kept in his employ, we will simply relate an in- -eident which occurred in this place last week, upon which comment is unneces- sary. Deputy Sheriff Rich, the jailor for this county, visited Douglass’ office for the purpose of obtainivg the necessary blanks to be used im making up bis ae- count for keeping Federal prisoners in our county jail. Marshal Douglass’ Clerk; one Cronenberger, furnishes the blanks wanted and yolunteered to fill the same up, “they would then be all -right.” Mr. Rich said he could fill them up. Cronen- berger said he was Col. Douglass’ Clerk, and he was paid by the Government to do this work. Whefeupon Mr. Rich left bis statement of aeeount and the blanks with the clerk te be filled: Subsequently call- ing for the Bautey they avere handed hin prepared, but at the same time he was re- quested to sigma note for $25,00 for the work done. This he refased to do when Cronenberger demanded that he sign a 210,00 note before taking the accounts, stating t ‘re customary. foy him to get pay fogisich work. Sheriff Rich not being thé.manhe was looking for on this occasion, he failed to get his ten dollar note ot which made him wrathy.

NortH Ganorrxa, 2 DevrarTMEN? OF AGRICULTURE. f taleigh, May 10, 1877. The act establishing this Department, ratified in General Assembly, March 12th, 1277, provides for a General Land and Mining R ry, in connection with and under the control of the Department for the sale or disposition of real property as follows: Sec. 17. The said Department is antho- rized and dinected to establish and keep in its office, in thé city of Raleigh, a Gen- eral Land and Mining Registry, wherein shall be recorded (if the owers shall so re- quest) all the farming, mineral or other lands offered for sale in the State, with a brief and truthful description of the same. And the Department shall act as agent for the sale or disposition of such proper- ty as may be registered as hereinbefore provided, and shall sell or dispose of such property upon the terms and conditions as stated and fixed by the owner thereof; and the Department shall be allowed the sum of one dollar for registration, and two and one-half per cent. commission on gross amount of said transaction. The said Department shall have author- ity to contract for and hold bodies of land, for the settlement of colonies, with exclu sive control of the sale of same at such prices, and for such a period as may be agreed npon by the owner thereof. In accordance with the provisions of the above section, I have now prepared and ready for distribution, blank Deserip- tive Forms, with explanatory Cireulars, to those desiring to Register their lands in this office, for sale. As will be seen the only charges made are those established by the Act, yiz: one dollar as a Registra- tion fee, and two aud one-half per cent. commission on gross amount of transac- tion, and these were imposed for the pur- pose of covering the expepses incurred in effeeting the sale. The Agency thus established by the Legislature is essentially different from any adopted hitherto by any Southern State, in the important particular, that it is well guarded aguinst influences of spec- ulation, and this feature must at once commend the plan to the favor and confi- dence of both the scller and buyer.

The New York Commercialand Fuancial Chioni- cle, of April 28th, quotes Georgia State bonds.as follows: 6’s 97 bid, 101% asked ; 7’s, new bonds, 1074 bid, 109 asked ; 7s endorsed, 104 bid, 106 asked; 7’s, gold bonds, 108: bid, 109 asked ; 8’s ’76, ’87, 109 bid, 112 asked. Twelve montlis ago, Geor- gia securities were quoted at a ruinous discount. The State was almost on the point of utter rejection from the finaacial ma) kets of the world. The ban of bagk- ruptcy hung threateningly over the com- monwealth. What has brought about the change? Georgia’s determination to pay the honest debt, and: repudiate the dis- honest portion thereof. On Tuesday the people of that glorious State put the seal of their irrevecable condemnation on the Radical fraud and raseality, which, aided by unscrupulous, knavish accomplices on Wall street, have overwhelined that peo- ple with a fraudulent debt and impaired the State’s credit—just as was done by the same class of individuals in North Caro- lina. This action on the part of the tax- payers of Georgia, while it demonstrat: s their determination to disown and repuadi- ate the obligations illegally issued in their name by a ring of thieves and plunderers, places their credit on a still higher basis, as by ignoring these dishonest and fraud- ulent obligations the State will be in a better condition to provide for and promptly meet its honest, recognized lia- bilities.

Nevertheless, is is abanrd to suppose there is no remedy against those who break the laws of the State, presuming @& the protection of the Federal Courts against the legal congequences of wanton way fo bring the guifjy to justice, and rast fist way is, is the subject of so interest to our people, Phe of Judge Cox surrenders to the E it : 4 a this view of the case, for otherwise Re monstrous to abandon an a- who had into trouble with the erformings federal mandate. & way io epforce it no doubt y aad We° trust the Judges of the rs Alaa agree on the one point question ag to how the law _ Wor ‘should aor this be difti- pngreiede peoel-ag a The election of Willard as Chief Justice pt South Caroling, sews to have been en- Aeteed by the Democrats with » singular animity.

Labor is cheap and abundant; and with the whole subject under hér own control, the county could regulate the bysiness with reference to the financig! condition of her people. It might take a longer time to accomplish the work in this way, but if when finished the coun- ty was clear of debt, er was boupd for no more than she could easily carry, her condition would certainly be vastly im- proved, We throw out these suggestions for what they aye worth, hoping they may engage the serious attention of others. We can thihk of no more practical node of proceeding on the subject ; for we think the time bas passed tq raise layg» sums of money for railroad purposes by private or indi¥jdaal subscriptions ; and it may also have passed for coynties to subscribe large sumg to 9 joint stock company to be paid in cash. Will it not be more satisfactory to counties to work out their subscriptions, through agents of their own selection, ac- countable as other county agenty are, than to pay cash into the hands of a joint stock company ofticered by men whe too often study how nof to doa thing rather than how well and cheaply it may be done ? consideration is approached with that diffidence which is justified by its With the mere political question, this court has noth- ing to do, as to other departments of the gov- ernment euch queations ly belung, * appropriate remedies may applied to any wrongs which are found to exist, Whatever uiay be the interest which arises from the disoussionof any subject, the judiciary should remain calm and fearlessly declare the law without encroaching upon the prerogatives if the co-ordinate departments of the govern- ment. In thia cave, the defendants are indicted -for an assault and battery npon one Levi Humble, committed within the limits of the State, on bes soil and within the body of the county of Guil- ford. Cupiases were issued and the defendants arrested and bound over to make ibele sppeer ance at the present term of the court, an- awer the charge of the State against them. Thereu they presented their petition to the Cirenit Court of the United States for the Weatern District of North Carolina, at Greens- boro, wherein they had set out that t “were officers appointed under the revenue laws of the United States, and that this proseention was com against them on account of an act done by them “under colar of , their office;” which pet see was ae ® ae een accom pani a certificate ap al- rome of thie comet, reciting that as counsel for the petitioners, he had examined the proceedings in this court against them, and carefully in- quired info all the matters set forth in the pe- tition, and that he believed them to be true. And therefore-they pray that the prosecution againat them should be transfer from the Superior Court of Guilford county to the Cir- cenit Court of the Unired States, which latter court they insisted had exclusive jurisdiction to try them for this alleged breach of the -peace ; and that any further proceedings in this court ander said indiotment would be nall and void. Before the defefidanta werecalled for trial in this court, a copy of an order from the Circuit Court of the United States, purporting to trans- fere their cause to the said Circuit Court, was daly served upon the clerk of this court; and when the defendants were called to anawen, they entered a plea to the ae for the cause above stated, to which the Solicitor fur the State, by replication, demurred. The defendants’ claim ts founded upon the Revised Statutes of the United States, page 115, sec. 643. No question is raised by the State in this court, as to the regularity of the proceed- ings in the Court of the United States, by which the defendants insiat their cause has been re- moved to thet court. Theit ition and the certiticate of counsel conform jn all particulars to the requirements of the statue, It ia not denied that the act of © re- férred to includes the deferdants’ case, and if valid, gives them the right of transfer for trail to the Federal Court ; and hence this court is relieved from the neceasily of considering these subjects, as the resistance to the defendant's right of removal is predicated alone upon the unconstitutionality of the act of Conyress relied on by them.

It is porsible a distinction may be sustained between the present case and Cohens vs, Vir- nia, Winghent ons in the State Courts for selling lottery ets contrary to her laws, He claimed to exertive the right under an act of Congress. was carried to the Supreme Court of the United States, under the 25th sec- tion of the J + Act. In that case, which was firt taken up upon a motion (o dismiss for want of #8 t hisowas, it was urged that thé offence was phrely against the laws of Virgin- ia,and that hersovereignty alone had been viola- ted, that Congress coutd not -prescribe a pun- ishment for such an offence committed within the State; that the reanit of the Federal gov- ernment’s -claiming and exercising judicial powers if ae eyes would be to prostrate the States at the feet of the United States government and leave them powerless to pro- trect their? own ‘citizens againat ‘malefactors who Cfainvéd to be acting under an act of ullyi with: the’ doetrine -@f States rights, Virginia Jeft nothing unurged to pre- vent the exercise of judicial authority deciding whether her citizens should or should not be tried and punished by the State. Yet the Su- reme Court held that the judicial power of the nited States extended tv all cases arisimg un- der a law of the United States, even between a State and her own citizens, for breach of the criminal lawa of the State. And though the Supreme Court ultimately held that the act of Congress under which he claimed to be acting did not authorize the sale of lottery tickets in Virginia, yet the Court further held, nem. con., because he claimed that it did, the case was one arising under a law of the United States, and within the mesning of those terms as used in the constitution of the United States. Upon that occasion, Marshall, C. J,, ssid, “A ease in law or — consists of the right of the one party, as well as the other, and may (traly be said to arise under the constitution, or a law of the United States, whenever its correct decision devends on the decision of either.” [Ibid 6th, Wheat. 379 ] Here, however, it is iusisted by the prdsecu- tion, that while itis true that the Supreme Court all § therefore seems to “ex- tend tal ease mining under the’ laws"of the Wa United States.” “If be any snerption, it ere ae ee If a Rene er.

This feature of the depart- meut is a moat in;portynt one, and will | probably result in more permanent good to the State than any other, The department is sending out forms of application fer the proper registration of property which parties in the State wish to dispose of. The constitation provides that’ “the judicial power of the United States shall be vested in one Supreme Court and such inferior courts an Congress may from time to time ordain and establish,” and that this power shall extend to ALL cases in law and equity arising under the constitution and the laws of the United States (Art. ILI, sections 1, 2.) , Now if the judiciaLenthority extends to the Criminal prosecution under consideration, it is because it is a case arising under the “constitu- tion and laws of the United States. “The power here under consideration is giv- en in general terms. No limitation is imposed. The broadest language is used. All cases 80 uniformly and impartially administered by the national judiciary than in the various State courts, where local attachments, prejudices and ambitions might occasionally operate upon the mind of the Judge. The Slanghter House cases and Rees and Cruikshank cases are relied On by the prosecu- criminal cases. These cases were decided upon a totally different principle, turning upon the construction of the 13th, 14th and 15th Articles of amendment to the Constitution of the United States. Still they do not overrule the principle contended for, and indeed haye no reference whatever to the removal of causes. Crauikshank’s case decides that in an assault made upon an officer of the United States, the sover- eignty of the United States is violated (by statute) and the sovereignty of the State by the breach of the peace. But if the assault is made by an officer of the United States under color of office, he (by statute) is authorized to remove the cause to the United States Circuit Court; for, saya the Court, “the Courts of the several States might determine the same question in different waya, There would be no uniformity of decision, for every act of an officer, civil or military, of the United States, including alike the highest and lowest, done under their au- thority would be liable to harassing litigation in the State Courts, However regular his con- duct, neither the Constitution nor the laws of United States could avail him, if the views of these tribunals aud the juries that sat in them should be adverse to him, The authority which he had-served awd ubeyed would be impdtetit to protect fim.” *[The Mayor vs. Cooper, 6 Wall, 253. ~ That causes in whith the State Courts have original jurisdiction may be remoyed to United States Courts, [ refer'to Gaines vs. Fuentes, 3 Am. L. T. & Rep. 361. It is true that afl these cases on which r<li- ance has been placed were civil cases, yet after a carefal examinaticn of such authorities aa are available, an inability tu find any criminal cause in point argiies a singular acquiescence on the part of a profession whore Argus eyes literally never close, in a law which has been enforced since 1866. Furthermore, the Legirlature of North Car- olina in 1874-'5, so far recognized the validity of this law, as to direct the Solicitor of the dis- trict in which the Circuit Court should be held, (with the permission of the court) to follow and prosecute ‘or aasist jn prosecuting, all cases the State to said gourt, thereby giving legisla- tive construction as to its constitutionality; and such econstrugtions are always deferred to by our courts, (Laws of North Carolina, 18745.) Now the question of jurisdiction properly arises in thie case when the defendants by their affidavits and the certificate of counsel, allege that they are revenue officers, for the manner in which the question is made to appear, is nut essential; and it may be done as itis in the Revised Statutes of the United States above cited, and in section 643 is made conclusive evidence of jurisdiction at this stage of the cause. And here the question arises (and it is really the only one presented for the determination tion to sustain the distinction between civil and | action of this meeting, and urge upon |them the necessity of attending to this important matter immediately.” The mecting then adjourned.

The Editors fought, as they have always done, the dog, and defended the sheep. The Legislature feared the constituency at home and allow the dogs to play havoc with the sheep. An- other courageous thing on the part of the Press ‘was that its members denied them- themselves a printed historical record, de- tailing the lives and public acts of its members. From these things the Press are exempt. . —_o————_ MEETING OF ConcorD PRESBYTERY.— PThis body met at Thystite, church ast Friday, 18th instant, and after examining two young men, Mr. J. A. Ramsay of this town, and Mr. R. D. Stimson of Statesville, proceeded to ordain #1 install Mr. Ram- say, Paster of ‘Thyatira church, and to li- eese Mr. Stimson as a ‘probationer. It is with sincere pleasure that we note the fact that another of our young men enters upon a useful and promising field of labor, and we trust that this venerable church will renew her youth under the faithful labors of our young friend. Mr. Stimson, we utiderstand, will go to Suffolk, Va., and our good wishes go with him. At this méeting the Rev. J. H. Colton, late missionary to the Choctaws, was re- ceived from the Presbytery of Indian, and Rey. A. E, Chandler was granted leave to labor outside the bounds of the Presbyte- ry. He goes to Georgia. —_——_Q—_— River and Marine.—Snake! One eve- ning last week, a party of three ladies and five gefitlemen went to the river for a pleasure ride. After going up the river about half a mile, one of the gentlemen got “behind on water,” “and insisted on pulling in to shore, where a small branch was emptying its crystal waters into the dark bosom of the Yadkin. Seeing that the young man was really in need of wa- ter, the party decided to do all they could to relieve him, and to the branch they pulled. Just as they got under the edge of the overhanging boughs and smaller foliage along the shore a water moccasin, about 2 feet long fell from a limb into the lap of one of the young ladies. The gen- tleman at the rudder saw it—yelled, snake! —and turned a summersalt landing in the stream—=still clinging tothe ropes and was towed in to the bank. In the mean time, there was no little confusion on board, the magic word, snake, had been echoed from every lip. As soon as the end of the skiff struck shore, the gent who wus so far behind on water, pitched the girls out in every direction and got out himself | | | of the Baptist church opened the conven- tion with prayer. Mr, F. B, MeDowell, then weleomed the association inan able and well timed address of some length, which was responded to by the President. The regular ‘business of the Association was then gone into. We are sorry we can’t give the proceedings, but space for- bids. Invitations from Asheville, Greens- the Sparkling Catawba Springs, were ten- dered the Association for their next annual meeting. The constitution was changed in several particulars. All arrangements for future meetings is to be made by the Executive Committee. This committee is elected annually. The following are the officers elected for the ensuing year: Raleigh. Charlotte, Dorsey Battle, of Tarboro, and J. 8. TomPinson, of Hickory. Corresponding Secretary, R. T. Fulghum, of Raleigh. Treasurer, P. F. Duffy, of Greensboro. Executive Committee, W. J. Yeates, Char- lotte, R. M. Furman, Asheville, R. T. Ful- ghum, Raleigh, T. K. Brauner, Salisbury, and J. P. Caldwell, Raleigh. Just after the regular morning session, the Association, by invitation, visited the residence of Col. Wm. Johnson, where that most courteous gentleman had pre- pared a festive board, which was highly appreciated by the fraternity. They then visited the mint and were kindly shown the most interesting points by Col. Coles. At 5 o'clock they visited the Caro- liua Military Institute, one of the best regulated and most thorough Institutions in the State. Col. J. P. Thomas, the Principal, is a South Carolinian of the first order, and has proved himself worthy the confidence and esteem of every one. A better man could not be selected to guard the interests of the young and train them up toa noble standard of true manhood. After the students had goue through the drill, which rivals Bing- ham’s in good training, the editors were invited in to partake of refreshments. Col. Thomas made the visit most interesting | and pleasant. Next, the Association vis- ited the residence of that veteran editor, W. J. Yeates, where again refreshments were spread and the visit made pleasant toall, and doubly so tothe younger mem- bers of the Preas. The speech of Col. E. S. Gregory, of Virginia, befure the Association and the citizens of Charlotte in the Opera House, came fully up to the expectations of all who heard it. It was clear and forcible and thoroughly interesting throughout. leaving the others in the midst of danger. The snake had taken refuge under the helmsman’s seat, which was soon torn up | by the lion-hearts on board, and| his snakeship dispatched in a little time. Then that young man, Still on water bent, Found a log and over it lent, ; And from the crystal waters drank, . | While the girls stood fnghtened on the ; bank. | o————_ Get your “turnout” and pick your part- | |ner.—There is a party forming ‘for the | purpose of the visiting the natural wall at | the Robley place, 9 miles north-north- west. It will probably go up on the Ist | or 4th of June. Arrangements have been made to have the wall suflieiently uncov- ered to admit of a satisfactory examina- tion, so that persons going on this exeur- sion may not lose time on this account. The best road leading to it is the ‘“‘new Mocksville,” via the pretty little village of Franklin. Those who have not trav- elled that road will be agreeable surprised to find so promising a village within four miles of Salisbury. The hissing of ateani, the clanking of machinery, the lumber heaps, peat cottages, well kept gardens, school house and a fine new church peep- ing through the foliage, altogether make a place of no small interest. They will also be surprised that the road is leading them through a fine agricultural country, The farmers are in good condition, and all the signs indicate thrift, peace and plenty. : Somepf, the dwellers.along the road have had an eye to adornments, and the traveller that-way will now and then see a gleaming white painted residence, surrqunded by beautiful shades and shrub- bery. Now and then aneminence is reach- ed from which extensive beautiful land- scapes are presented to the eye, in them- selves worth a ride:to go aud see. “The prettiest view, may be had at too points near the late residence of Rev. J. Crim, now owned by Mr. H.C. Bost. All the nat- ural scenery near the wall, as well as along theroad, is decidedly pleasant, particularly at this season of the year; and the trav- eller may slake his thirst with the purest and coolest spirugs to be found any whére this side the mountains.

The large dining Hall of the Central was full of tables well arranged and piled with delicacies. As they ate and were merry, there were many reports and a shower of corks, succeeded by toasta, and the night wore pleasantly on till the cocks began to crow, then the festive hour(s) was ended. This gathering of the members of the Press in convention was a fruitful and pleasant one. We have learned some- what of each other and the needs of re- spective sections, and if our plans work as harmoniously as did our deliberations we may expect a decided advancement in journalism and also in internal im- provements. With singleness of heart and hand it was agreed to labor for the elevation of the State Press, and also for the promotion of internal improvements in the State. No two objects successfully carried ont would do more to give the State that character and position to which she is entitled. The Executive Committee have not yet decided where the next. annual meeting will be held. Ample notice will be given and we hope 0 see a much larger atten- dence in 1878. BUSINESS LOCAL COLUMN.

He was fortunate enough to ee the co-operation of Captain Catlin, U.S. A., who had lost a leg in action daring the war, and had become a sufferer with neuralgia in the stu p, the pain seem- ingly residing in portions of the absent foot. This officer kept records of his paiu- fal sensations, in conpection with the weather reports as shown by the Signal | ,), Service, for three years; and he prepared elaborate maps and charts, showing just how certain attacks correspond to certain periods of barometric depression and other meteorological phenomena. In brief, he conducted, his self-examination with av accuracy and scientific thoroughness which cannot be too highly commended. The result now adduced by Dr. Mitchell is that there is every reason to believe that the popular view which relates some pain fits to storms has a. distinct fonnda- tion; bat that, as. the single element of mischief has not been detected, he is driv- en to believe that it is the combinationof atmospheric conditions which starts the pain into being. The separate factors of storms, such as leasened pressure, rising temperature, greater humidity, and winds, appear as a rale to be incompetent, then acting singly, to give rise to attacks of pain. Ether it is, as above stated, a com- bination which. provokes the pain, or it may be some as yet nnknown agency, acting alone. It was observed by Captain Catlin that his sensations of pain prevail- ed when the aurora was intense. Whether this was due to the’ magnetic or electric disturbance prevalent or to the succeeding storm, Dr. Mitchell thinks is queéstion- able. About the most string conclusion reached is that relating to the neuralgic storm belt. Every storm, as tt sweeps across the continent, consists of a vast rain area, at the centre of which isa moy- ing space of greatest barometric depression known as the storm center, along which the storm moves like a bead on a thread. The rain usually preecdes this by 600 miles; but before and around the rain lies a belt, which may be called the neuralzic margin of the storm, and which precedes the rain by about 150 miles. This fact is very deceptive, because the sufferer may be on the far edge of the storm basin of barom- etric depression, and, secing nothing of the an old popu “It is somewhat interesting,” adds Dr. Mitchell, ‘‘to figure one’s self thus—a mov- ing area of rain girdled by aneuralgie belt 150 miles wide, within which, as it sweeps along in advance of the storm, prevail, in the hart and maimed limbs of men and in tender nerves and rheumatic joints, re- newed torments called into existence by the stir and perturbation of the ele- ments.” —~ ++ A REMARKABLE KINGFISHER. There-are over fifty species of haleyonide or kingfishers; but none is more remarka- ble than the one here under consideation unlike the bray of a donkey, it has obtain- ed the name of “the laughing jackass.” Its zoological name is dacelo, one species, d. gigas, being a large bird, 18 inches long, and endowed with strength and courage; it feeds indiscriminately on any animals of suitable size, whether quadraped, bird, reptile, fiah, insect, or crustacean. It isa handsome bird, being brightly colored; and its flight is quick and noiscless. Its powerful bill makes it a very formidable enemy. The Illustrated News, of Adelade, Aus- tralia, from whose pages we select the en- graving, gives the following particulars of this interesting bird: ‘The langhing jackass is'almost tvo well known to need | description...

Railroad from Knozville, Tennessee to Augusta, Ga.—Col. Wm.

He says the roads are already con- structed and only require te be closely and directly connected, consolidated and equipped. He thinks the saving on freights incoming and outgoing alone for one year to the Northwest would consoli- date and equip these great lines of trans- portation sed travel to Knoxville, and will he the first in the South todemand a dou- ble.teack to meet the great demande for and passengers. of the Western North Caro- ling Railroad was, in la-g: part, to bring the Weat in more direct connection with the Atlantio'and the straightest roets of travel to the Kast, Hence a branch road from Asheville in the direction of Knox- ville, and another towards Chattanooga, the latter te commect with the railroads leading éast to that point,’ The Knox- ville Port Royal rout would be the short- est to the sea coast, and prebably the cheapest for heavy freights ; but the W cet. ern N.

County taxes have, om the average, been cut down one-half, and a law has been passed the whole amount of county special enactment tn 15 mills on the dol- lar—e rate which the tax- in most of the Northern States would think ex- eeedingly low. The Legislature spends less than halfas much money as it for- merly did. Last year the whole cost of ramming the government, including the expenses of the charitable inetitutiuas, wae only $218,709, and for the current year the estimate is $452,750. After pay- ing the interest on the State debt and re- tiring certificates of indebtedness to bbe | Reet amount of $122,504, the Treasurer had a surplas at the begining of the present year | '™ aad had abeat $300,000 of back tazes yet tacomein. Retrenchment in county expenses bas fully k with that ia State outlays, and it a im bounds to say that the people have been relieved of more than one-half of the bar- den of taxation. If thie had been accomplished -at the expense of efficient government there | would be nothing in the change to com- mend, bat with the new vconomies a de- cided improvement has been made in the cradled, tellliiithang Poobsce adminis- tration. respectable citi- sens have the places in. many pablic of ignorant, incompetent, irrespon - sible and raseally fellows, white and black, who came to the surface in reconstruction ou the wave of a negro majority. |The laws are sdmipistered by better magis- trates and jadges, and executed by a bet- ter class of officers. The natural result is a decided improvement in the feeling to- ward each other of the two races compos- ing, in-abeuteqaal propertions,- the pop- ulation of the Staté. Since they haye obtained that control of affairs which they think belongs to them by reason of supe- rior intelligence and the possession of property, the whites are much mort kindly disposed toward the: negroes than former- ly, and the negroes finding that no harm hag egme to them as a class by the change, or to any Of their ‘race, except the few men who have lost office, soem readily to acquiesce in the new order of things. They care leas for politics than formerly and more for their crops, and feel an wnaccus- tomed security in the consciousness of the disappearance of much of the old hostility toward them on the part of the whites, which grew out of political antagonism. The white members got the upper hand in everything capcerning government; but as long as it is a question whether onc race or the other shal] rule, the negroes are unqnestionably in a better situation as a class than while attempting to govern the whites. Their condition will be more antisfactory, however, in that new era hope is pow dawning when the color line will disappear from politics. Net as much is being sccomplished iv the way of commen-school education ia Mississippi as should be done, but it is by mo means true, as frequently asserted in | party newspapers at the North, that the echool systems has been practically aban- doned since the Republicans went out ‘of power. The State still appropriates as Seeanbaeten tanh of ean Ube part of Repa administration. Diceceees eoeabig the poll tax and from licenses, fines, and the redemption of lands sold for taxes, ge imto « fand for distribution pre rata among the counties according to popula- tion, and the law requinps that wher the fund fajja short of an amount equa} to two mills on phe dollar of all the taxable pro- perty in the State the deficiency shall be made up from the general fund. If the poll tax were aj] collectéd the’ amount would far exceed the. }wo mill mitimum, but as no one is obliged to pay this tax to have the privilege of voting it is very lax- ly enforced. The amount of schoo! funda distributed to the ear was 98 conte ded dreoycthed of niad nase very smal] sum, bat_ intended only ass nucleus for the counties to'add to. Many increase the amount by loca! tax- ation siiffigiently to sustain good schools for from four to six months in the year. There is no disposition in Misalanip pi #0 far ap I can see, to put the colored peo- ple at s disadvantage in the matter of ed- ucation. They have their equitable share pf the school funds. The Legislature ap- prepristed sgpport of Alcorn University, $3,000 for the pormal at of Tongaloo Uni- versity, aba’ the State Normal Beheal at Holly Springs—all institutions for the salored students.

FIRST ANNUAL MEETING. Mesung Eprrons : cost farmers are now At the frst annual meeting of the members of the Salisbury Lfbrary Association, held On the 14th inst., the following officers, were elected : Librarian, Dr. J. F. Griffith, Treasurer, Orin D. Davis. Directors, Rev’s J. Rumple, Fi, J. Murdoch, and Messers, 8, F. Lord, Orin D, Dayis, Theo. F, Kluttz, Dr. H. T. Trantham was elected a Director but de- rian reported as follows: Number of bound volumes purchased by Ass. 28 to “ “« “ — Joaned to Association, 70 Magazines, Journals, Novels &c., paper covers, 145 Number of Members $7. And how allow me to say one word in behalf of the Library, The librarians report shows that we have made a very promising start, though the num- ber of members is much smaller than we had antict pated, and we hope to have that number largely in, creased. The cost is very small, only one dollar as an admission fee, and thirty-three and one-third | cents per month as dues. Every dollar of this money is expended for books and periodicals, as we have no red-tape, salaries, no rents, no expenses. Our books, too, are all purchased from first hands, and at a very Mberal discount from regular pricés. Séléctidns of books are made by the directors upon the sugges- tions of members, The library (which is at Dr. Griffith’s office) is open on Wednesday and Saturday of each week, and each member can take out not more than two books at one time, which must be re- turned or reported at the end of two weeks, and all . | loss of, or damage to samé must be made good. This _ | is, in brief, our plan of operations, and it should com- . | mend itself to all our people. The germ ts planted, . | and the good which ft is capable of producing, if property nurtured, is fncalculable. The payment of twenty-five dollars at one time constitutes a life membership, Will not some of our wealthier citizens heip usin this way? It would be good seed sown upon good ground. We have now in the library some very valuable 7,200. | nooks, and baye also subscribed. to. the leading. re- views &c., and the number will be increased as rap- idly as tlie money comes in. Surely, there are ten times twenty seven reading people in Salisbury, whose names ought to be on our roll, and who are slighting a great tor benefitting themselves and their fefiow-men. THEO. F.

Tom did what he could to help his family when he heard of the trouble at home, and often denied himself a-meal in order to be able to send a shilling or two fr Postage-stamps to his mother when he received his wages.~ . About,this time another bahy was bere, and this increased the family’s distress. Poor Mrs. Grant, was in too great anxiety of mind todie quietly in bed more than two op tlirge Mays, And in gpite £ Rhoga’s remonstrances, insisted on ge ting ‘up, and, weak as'she was, going about her usual wotk.

Rickard ‘lighted the fire every morning before-he went to work, ard did many things fur her when he was at home. The neighbours, too, were very kind, and they had many little helps in different ways. | And thus the autumn was passing away into winter, with Grant in prison, and his wife only regaining her strength by very slow degrees, As the winter drew on, (rrant’s time in prion came to at end, and he returned homie.

They were get- ting out the bodies, but they had not been able to find all yet. There was a list of the names of those missing, and that of Thomas Grant, aged fifteen, was among them, Rhoda watehed Mrs. Giles’s. grave face anxiously ; but fronr the first she had had no ‘hope. 2 ‘Is his name, among {them 2 she said, And-she guessed the worst when the good woman said nothing, but: threw her arms round het, ‘dnd kissed her with tearful eyea. ‘Let. me .go home to ‘mother,’ Rhoda said, ‘and tell her the news before it reach - es her in any other way. ‘# ‘might a her if Mrs, Brown told her as she told me.’ Mrs. Giles had offered to go with her, as she felt that Rhoda was trembling so much that she could Nardly «walk alone ; but the girl said, kissing her, “Thank you, dear Mrs. Giles ; -perlraps I had better go alone, and try to tell. mother by de- grees.’ ; And Mrs. Giles sighed and said, ‘God bless and pity the poor dear girl!’ as she saw her hurry away through the dark, foggy » Decemben afternoon.

Though it bruised her moth- er’s heart, it had not crushed her as it did Rhoda, towhom the ™®ews verily came like a death-blow. Unmindful of her wet shoes, and clothes made damp by the fog, she had caught a severe cold, and next morning found her very ill. A dark cloud of sorrow had settled down on the household, and Grant, rough, NaFTeHeT ian ASHE wa! “Yelt deeply that, but for him,aJ'o ulg My e stayed at home, and Would hy mad gone to the mine. ‘All the news they obtained from the mines confirmed the first bad tidings, and neither message nor letter came‘from Mr. Randall.

Mr. Randall was most kind to the poor father and brother, and gave them shelter while they waited for the humble funeral, which took place with so many others next day. They went and the people with whom Tom had lived. These good folks were mojirning the loss of a son, who had alse gone down to work in the pit on the morning of the accident. They had not much to tell about Tom, except that their poor behind was ‘terrible tak- “uk aan 0 Braet epg Rich- ‘ « yi P illness np tS de ay by da¥ ah Bd ane’ td} RAR he ra cettite 80 rapialy that the d Ocul htt st Afok than a few weeks.

They heard some one lift the latch, and then there was a step in the passage, and | in another moment Tym,, stood before them. But it was Tom Jeoking taller, and paler, and graver, than they had ever seen him before.. There was a ery of sur- prise and joy fram every one, and soon Tom was in his mother’s arma, and the poor woman was shedding happy tears over her lost bey. state, bag fainted away; while Grapt,, my hard man as he was,,cyied like .a child at, o the sightof his son, ,‘It’s yever you, Tom? | : dead and buried after the accident!

God had preserved his life, and he | state, two days after it w as supposed that the last body had been got up from the pit. Tom described to them the whole affair from first to last, and it was evide ont how deeply he felt the mercy of God in sparing his life. ‘I had heard a sermon the fore,’ he said, from the text, ‘Prepare to meet thy God!” The clergymah had told us that i$ was a good text for ‘minets “to keep in memory, as their lives weré so uncertain. He spoke about our being al- ways ready for the Master’ § coming ; and what Me sata seehted to sik de ep tats my’ heart, and'T thought of itagain’and again, There were a good 1tffftny of the miners there that Sariday evening, ahd Vnr sure many of them felt what he said; for they walked home so quict, and there was little laughing and joking. Poor Johnny who was killed, and who was one of the boys I lived with, felt it, I’m sure. On Tuesday, the day it happened, we all went as usual Sunday ‘ps: down into the mine togther, not feeling as if anything was going to happen; I think most of the fellows were in spirits. Some of the meu were religious, I know, and read their Bibles; and there were ‘ne or three who used to sing hymns while they were at work, and tried to turn the talk of their fellow-miners to better things ; and there were other poor fellows who drank and swore—and I remember that, a few had been drinking on that Tuesday morning, and were quarrelling and using bad langnage. And then I re- collect Turner, one of the good men, beg ging them fot to quarrel and swear, ae telling them. they were sinning ,agaigst God. And then Theard him singing the hymn,— _ “There e is se jcurtate filled M wl from Enmanuel And singer, spuyeged ben Losé all thefr guilty s And then I remember, as we saq cating our dinner by, Jamprlight, that gne of the boys who had just learnt to write traced in the coak dust the, words “Prepare to meet thy God }” and some pogr_ fellows laughed and jeered at him, And Tprner | # took the boy’s part, and said quyigtly te them some solemn words about watcb- ing, as death might come, at any moment; and he tried to point their thoughts, toa Saviour Who was willing and able to save them fro, eterna] death, Aud then, in the afternoon, a sudden crash came, like loudest thunder, and the mine seemed to rock as if there were an carthquake, and the men ran together like sheep. And then I heard the groans, and cries and prayers to God for inercy, and a hot suffo- cating air see see to blow in, and | he ard no more then.! indeed good th blood viens, — that Qood ains.” Tom went.on te describe how he, bad fallen an his hands and knees, aud found himself crawling throngh a_ bole, jn, the mine. He worked Jimself on,. scarce knowing what,he did, till he caine to a larger hole, where he was able ta:breathe a little better, and then he heard another crash, as if the passage behind him bad been the saving of his life, as it had cut off the poisonous gas, which would have soon guffucated him. fiped hple, he lay half-ugeonscious for two days, without sustenance and with yery little ajr Jo breathe.

The comparatively small amount of labor required to produce and harvest the crop. Ordinarily it may be planted as early as it is aafe to plant cotton seed, but it may be planted with success as late as the firat of July. For hay it should be sown broadcast, using three pecks to one bush- el of seed per acre, if aown on good ground, properly prepared, early in the season, two heavy crops may be obtained. The yield in hay is from 6,000 to 8,000-pounds per acre, greatly relished by stock. ‘For seed it should be planted in drills and cov- erd lightly, using about one-half bushel of seed to the acre, having rows from 24 to 32 inches apart and cultivated with aweep or shovel plow, The yield in seed is from 50 to 60 bushels per acre, which are very. nutritions for stock and poultry. It should not be planted on wet lands, but if practioabte at this season of the year, damp or moist rich soil should be chosen. A good’ commercial fertilizer, compost, leached ashes, stable or barn yard manure should be applied. It will mafure in ’- bout 60 days from plauting, and if cut for hay, it should be when the heads first be- gia to turn yellow, but for seed, let the heads get a full yellow cast.

The tableaux were beautiful, particalarly the “Fairy Queen’s Court.” A prettier picture has rarely been exhibited. The vocal and instru- mental music was good, and—and—the girla who sung said nothing half so sweet as themselves. Doct. Griffith warbled a song! How does it happen he always gets such nice places in these nice parties where there are so many pretty girls— how? And “Band No. was there in fall array, tooting for this fine concern. Did you e-v-e-r! They say “the world moves,” and it really looks like it. The same party will give another concert to- night (Wednesday). ——Q-——— A Pretty Town.—Strangers visiting our town bave been struck with the beauty of the place.. Standing on the public square, the eye commands the main streets which on ~ im four directions. They are about 100 feet wide. About.12 feet on each side are devoted to foot paths or pavements, along the curbing to which’ are elm and other shade trees, all in full leaf. These trees are a chief attraction at this season of the year, shading nicely kept walks, and gen- erally fresh and handsome residences, they form a striking featare of the place. The pedestrian who may desire a closer inspection, will not. fail to be rewarded by a ramble all over town. ee Not a Case.—We learn from Dr. J. J. Sammerell, one of the oldest and most popalar practioners in this place, that he has not met with asingle case of spring chills this year, the first instance of the kind in #*practice of about 35 years. The health of this whole section has been im- proving for several years past, due, in large measure, no doubt to the drainage system put in practice by the owners of lands. We believe there is no place in the State more blessed with health than this has been. For a long time we have enjoyed exemption from many diseases which have prevailed with fatal effect in other portions of the surrounding coun- try. The Mayor has issued the annual notice to the citizens to make the usual cleaning up at this season. It is beyond doubt one of the wisest things the Commissioners undertake to do. Every citizen or lot owner, should be rigidly required to re- move nuisance on his premises. The hot eather admonishes that this isa work not ‘ea be delayed. dating anentnnaes Warer Wokxs—The subject of water works is again before the town Commis- aioners, There are two propositiuns be- fore them: one is to dig cisterns in vari- ous parts of the city, and from them ob- Tete sermop.

There will be little @ifference in | the cost of the twe, and it appears to us that the reservoir will be more acceptable on many acedunta. If we had the cisterns, and a fire were to break out half a square from one of them, how'’would you get the water out, to be efficient? You could not dip it out, and the engine would uot draw it out that distance. In the case of the reser- vuir, you would attach the hose to a hydrant and conduet the water to the engine. This is only one instance: we might give many, but will leave it for another time. In our opinion the cisterns would be useless. ey HOW THE PROPHETS DIFFER. Last Saturday, Mr. Jas.

Dear Wethinee : —It does pot appear to me that Goldsboro’ has grow much since the war; but a very marked im- provement, in many respects, is apparent: The people are polished and stylish; the stores, capacious and elegant ; there. are many beautiful residences with tasteful lawns; the streets and side-walks are clean, wide, even and shady ;—one main reason for the fine conditom of the streets is, that the good people here have rights which swine are bound to respect, pigs be- ing strictly debarred from cin ding the sight, hearing or smell, and from fiea breeding, inside the corporation. I no- tice that where street liberty is denied to hogs, few or no mongrel, mangy, flea gen- erating dogs are seen roystering around. The citizens here also exhibit a practical antipaty to the cavorting of goats, cack- ling of geese, and browsing of cattle on the streets. They do not permit Grangers, even, to forget what is due to others, or vent gratnitous spite by stopping their teams on one side and their carts on the other of street crossings. It is also prac- tically denied here that side-walks in the business part of town are, in any degree, meant as outside show grounds for store- keepers, on which to set out all sorts of stumbling blocks fur pedestrians, such as anvils, ploughs, &c., or beef, fish and oth- er sale stands. When I first. came here, they even were about to abate the Band | as a public nuisance, to the extent of ma- | king them practice outside of town, if their promiscvous discordant tooting and drumming was coutinued ; for this legal | auxilliary | was duly thankful, and ain | happy to say that now, only agreeable sounds emanate from band reom, and that | betwixt the band and their fellow citizens | a cordial feeling of mutual good will is in | the ascendent. There is only one hotel here, but it is in first-class city style in every respect. | The Post office is also of the city model, | and connected with it isa spacious, news- | paper and literay periodical salesrooin or depot, in which everything desireable in | that line can be had at New York rates; | consequently this isa reading community, Se ae When | and thamacives, Ger oe 9 | ine where that class, whose vveation is store | room floor walking, do not, to any great extent, fill up their (very much) leisure time, st the front doors as street scanners and commentators, as is the fashion in il- literate communities. Eight large stores here are run by Jews; and, despite the srieers of some, it is a pat- ent truth that “where Jews most do con- gregate” there is found a strong business vitality and healthy pablic apirit iv that | eommunity. Maat of the water here is unfit to drink | without a ‘‘stick” in it; bat, being a poor | stick in @ aquare wrestle with the sort ot stick signithed, I have so far prudently ig- | nored said atiek, bat have failed to ignore the pains of intestine strife and exerucia- ting stomach aches I have suffered from drigking the unmixed atrocious wafer here. Cosmo. ——_——~— > N esses Epitors : Last week's letter was in- teaded to discuss Fayetteville in full and this one should begin with The journey homeward ; but feeling that ome of two points were over- looked last time, we will give Fayetteville a finishing tonch. lta water facilities and powers should have been more noticed ; not only does the Cape Fear River act conxtantly, as a burden bearer, bringing this place in ‘daily communication with Wilmington and the sea coast, but in and about Fayetteville are niany good!y sized streams furnishing abandant opportunity for factories, milla, saoaie a radiva of six miles of Fayetteville “got leas than fventy mill ponds can be found. A want of capital alone prevenis many factorien from being in active operation. On Friday evening before leaving F. we had an opportanity to see another phase of Fayette- ville, “Dine” parties being in etyle. The Methodiats used the “fashion” to improve their church building. Notwithstanding it wak quite a cold evening and ice cream was the bill of fore, we found quite a large number at “Fay- etteville Hall” enjoving themselves much. The room was beantifully decorated, the waiters | were very pretty Methodist young ladies, meu the ice cream was excellent. Had a pleasant |‘ chat with Rev.

After she bad got over the shock of seeing him the joy seemed to revive her for @ day or two, but it was only a brief improvement. It was beau- tiful to see her patient submission to God’s yill, and the bright smile of hope. which lighted her face as ahe spoke of heavenly things. The more she saw of Tom, the pore thankful she was to God for having sent him to be a real comfort to her peor mother when she was gone. It had been one of her cares that after het death there would be no one to say a good word, or remind her family of keeping God’s day holy. But #be felt new that by God's grace Tom would be able to do this, and perhaps be more to them than she had been. Tom did not seek any work at first, by the doctor’s advice, but lived on his savings for (Wo or ‘three’ weeks, till he was stronger. Hewas a great comfort to his dear sister in her last days. He read God’s word to her, and sat up with her at night, dividing the nursing with his moth- er. Rhoda often dropped asleep holding his hand, and when she woke it seemed to soothe her to see him sitting beside her. : Before she died .shewegeived the Holy Communion, andi'Fom,"thoagh not yet a partaker, was present at’ the sacred and toughing service.....When.it. was over, and Mr. Morsell gone, she called to Tom to take a seat near her, and putting her thia wasted hand into his she seid, ‘Tom dear!

His wages were so small that he could not venture to abridge his working hours. He never spent a moment idly nor a penny uselessly. As soon as his work was done, he would set out, with his supper stowed away in his pocket to loge no time, and so long as it was light he scoured the country, looking for moths, beetles, birds, or any other living thing that came inhis way. When it became so dark that he could no longer observe, he dropped down by the side of a bank, or bush, or a tree, whichever came handiest, and there he dozed or slept un- til the light returned. Then he got up and again began his observations, which he continued til] it was time to go to work. Sunday was his only day of rest. By twelve o'clock Sunday. night, however, he was up and away. His neighbors used to say of him, ‘‘It’s a stormy night that keeps that man Edward in the house.” In fact, he never staid at“ home except Sundays. Weather never daunted him. When it rained, he would look out for a hole in the bank and thrust himself into it, feet foremost. .He kept his. head and his gun out, watching and waiting fur any cas- ualties that might happen. He knew of two such holes, both in sand banks and both in woods, which he occasionally fre- ; quented, Vhey were foxes’ or badger’s dens.

He conld often have shot dears and hares, which came close up to where he was; but they were forbiden animals and he. resis the temptation. He shot owls and polecats. from his am- | buscades. Number of moths came danc- ing about him and many of these he secured and boxed, ,sending them to their lcng sleep with a little drop of chloroforin. Sometimes he would take up his qnuar- ters in a barn, a ruined castle, or a church- yard. His objection to these places was | the greaternumbers of unpleasant visitors than elsewhere—polecats, weasels, bats, rata and mice, not to speak of hosts of night- wandering insects, mollusks, beetles, slaters, centipedes, and snails. Think of having a polecat or a weasel sniff-sniffing at your face while asleep, or two or three big rats tug-tuging at your pucketa, and attempting to steal away your larder! Beyndie church-yard, a most uncanny place after dark, was frequently his lodg- ing place, greatly to the amazement of his superstitious neighbors. He sometimes had severe encounters with nocturnal rvuamers. One night, while sleeping in the rijizied ¢astle of the Boyde, abdiit five miles west of Banff; he was attacked by a large and ferocious polecat. Edward could have shot the creature, but he never wast- ed powder and shot upén any thing he eould take with his hands. The animal leaped upon him as he lay on the floor, and was seized by the throat by the watch- ful naturalist. “I thought,” says Edward, “that he would have torn my hands to pieces with his claws. I endeavored to get him turned round, so as to get my hand to the back of his neck....How he Screamed and yelled!....And then what an awful stench he emitted during his struggles!” After struggling with the brutenearly two hours, Edward bethought hin? of bis chilorform bottle, and, with a dose from that, ended the fight. He was quite exhausted with the long contest, but as he had secured a large and valuable spe- cimen for his collection, he felt repaid for all it had cost him. In thie manger Edward passed several years, working at hie trade by day and making bis rounds asa vaturalist by night. In four years he had made a collection of nearly. thousand ingects, secured in twen- ty: boxes, which were piled one upon an- other, face downward, to keep out the dust. On looking’ at them one day he To assist him im procuring specimens of | It was so rickety that he had to tie : whole collection. This was a heavy mis- fortune for a man in Edwafté’s position. | His wife, seeing the empty cases, asked him what he would do. “Well,” said be, “it’s an awfu’ disappointment, bat I think the best thing to do will be to set to work and fill them again.” He did so; and in another four years he had as large a col- lection as the first... By the year 1845 he had preserved nearly two thousand speci- mens, of} living creatures fonnd in the neighborhood, of Banff. About half the | number consisted of quadrupeds, birds, reptiles, fishes, crustacea, star-fish, zoo- phytes, corals, sponges, and other olyjects. He had also collected an immense num- ber of plants. Some of the specimens were in bottles, but the greater number } were. in cases with glass fronts. He could joiner; so “he - wade ~ wholé them himeelf, with the aid:of:his shoe- maker's knife, a. saw, and a hammer. There were about three hundred cases in all. Am exhibition of this collection at a fair held at Banff yielded hima émall sum of money, and encouraged him totry the same experiment at Aberdeen, in the hope that he might be able to give up his trade and de- vote all his time to natural histery. But he was doomed to a sad disappointment. Few people went to see the collection, and he was vbliged to part with it to de- fray the debt incurred in moving it to Aberdeen. The sale brought only £20 10s. The collection went into the hands of a private gentleman, who suffered it to gotoruin. Edward went back to Banff disappointed, but neither soured nor dis- heartened, and resumed bis trade and his researches. —— | SACRIFICE OF A HINDOO WIDOW. News of the widow's intentions having spreal, a great concourse of people of both sexes, the women clad in their gala costumes, assembled round the pyre. In a short time after their arrival, the fated victim appeared, accompanied by the Brahmins, her relatives, and the body of the deceased. The spectators showered chaplets of mogree on her head, and greet- ed her appearance with laudatory excla- mations at her constancy and virtue. The women especially pressed forward to touch her garments—an act which is considered meritorious, aud highly desirable for ab- solution and protection from the ‘evil eye.’ The widow wasa remarkably handsome woman, apparently about thirty, and most superbly attired. Her manner was marked by great apathy to all around her, and by a complete indifference to the | preparations which for the first time met \hereye. From this circamstance an im- pression was given that she might be un- der the influence of opium ; and in con- | formity with the declared intention of the Européan officers present to iuterfere should apy coercive measures be adopted by the Brahmins or relatives, two medi- cal officers were requested to give their opinion on the subject. They both agreed that she was ‘quite free from any influence calcdlated to induce torpor or,intexica- | tion. Captain Barnes then addressed the wo- man desiting to know whether the act she was about to perform were voluntary , | or enforced, and assuring her that, should | she entertain the slightest reluctance to | the fulfillment of her vow, he, on the part of the British government, would guaran- ty the protection of herlite and property. Her answer was calm, heroic, and constant to her purpose: “I die of my own tree will; give me back my husband, and I will consent to live; if I die not with him, the souls of seven husbands will condemn me: °-* Ere the renewal of the horrid ceremon- ies of death were permitted, again the voice of mercy, of expostulation, and ev- en of entreaty was heard; but the trial was vain, and the cool and collected man- ner with which the woman still declared her determination unalterable, chilled and startled the most courageous. Physical pangs évidently excited no fears in her; her singular creed, the customs of her country, and her sene of conjugal duty, excluded from her mivd the natural emo- tions of personal dread; and never did martyr to a true cause go to the stake with more constancy and firmness, than did this delicate and gentle woman pre- pare to become the victim of .a deliberate sacrifice to the demoniacal tenets of her heathen’ ¢reed. Accompanied by the officiating Brah- min, the widow walked seven times round the pyre, repeating the usual mantras, or prayers, strewing rice and coories on the ground, and sprinkling water from her hand over the bystanders, who believe this to be efficacious in preventing dis- ease and in expiating committed sins. She then removed her jewels, and pre- eented them to her relations, saying a few words to each, with a calm, soft smile of encouragement and hope. The Brahmins then presented her with her lighted torch, bearing which, “Fresh as a fower she stepped through the fata] door, and And warm with life ber nat within The body of ber bus- band, ped in rich kinkaub, was ~ Gaally laid soroce ber knee.” Thotes ned grass were piled over the door ; and again of a child would have frail barrier which > ‘8 man’s constancy was the last.

THE THREE SOUTHERN HEROES. John Esten Cooke furnishes the follow- ing for the columns of the Philadelphia Weekly Times : . The death of the famous cavalry man produced a deep and painful sensation, in some degree akin to that produced by the death of Jackson. The Southern people had indeed beconte accustomed to couple together the three great names, Lee, Jackson and Stuart, valuiag each for his peculiar qualities. No comparison is intended to be made between these three distinguished soldiers, but it is interest- ing to notice how sharply contrasted they were in character, and how peculiarly each was fitted for the sphere in which he moved and his special functions. Lee, the head and front of the struggle, was the born commander-in-chief, fitted for the conception of great campaigns, ever wide awake, a man of august dignity by nature, calm, suave, grave, taking good aud evil fortune with the same imposing serenity ; in person, one of the most noble and graceful men of his epoch, and the finest rider in the Southern army; in character, simple, pure, patient, binding to himself both the love and respect of men, Jackson was the infantry leader, the “right arm” to execute what Lee con- ceived ; in person not graceful, in manner silent, reserved and oftenabrupt ; cautious council, but, rapid and terrible in exe- cution, going to the battle with muttering prayers on his lips, leaving all to Provi- deuce, but striking with all the ‘power of his arm todo his part, and in many ways resembling the Irousides of Cromwell. Stuart, on the contrary, was the cavalier, essentially belonging to the class of men who followed the fortunes of Charles I., ardent, impetuous, brimming over with the wine of life and youthy with the head- long courage of a high-spirited boy, fond of bright colors, of rippling flags, of mar- tial music and the clash ef sabres—in all the warp and woof of his character an embodiment of all the best. traits of, the English cavaliers—not of their bad traits. Althongh his utter carelessness as to the impression he produced subjected him to many calumnies, it is here placed on rec- ord, by one who knew his private life thoroughly and was with him day and night for years, that he was in morals among the purest of men—a faithfal has- band, absolutely without vices of any de- scription, and if not demonstrative in his religious views, an earnest and exemplary Christian. His love for his wife was deep and devoted, and on the death of his little daughter, Flota, hé qaid to me with tears in his eyes, ‘‘I shall never get over iti —- TS SUPREME COURT.

The people and the press do’ denounce this form of official outrage and tyranvy whenever they properly understand it. Bat denunciation seems to have little effect!

Protests on the floor of Congress by our Representatives, and stern demands there for remedial legislation. 3. A stern demand upon the President of the United States for the removal of bad Revenue officers, and the supplying of their places with men who are neither brutes nor bullies. 4.

THE LOUISVILLE COURIER-JOURNAL ON PRESIDENT HAYES. Nobody who knows the President has ever doubted his partisan iutegrity. He is an out-and-out Republican. The poli- ticians of this generation have before them two eye-openers—Johu Tyler and Andrew Johnson. Mr. Hayes need not be either a very sagacious ora very sin- cere politician to avoid the pits which his two unfortunate predecessors dug for themselves. He has never dreamed of going back on the party that, failing to eleet him, contrived to play on the stu- pidity of the party that defeated him as to make it his inductor into office. It was vatural, therefore, that, taking a low estimate of Democratic, intelligence, he ghould think he could. burst,the » hole concern by a few fuvors judiciously scat- tered here and there, joined to a liberal and just policy. Circumstances favored this intention, The honorable and patri- otic conduct of the Southern men, who, seeing no fight in their Northern allies, accepted the Eleetoral Commission snare, and who, haviug accepted it, stood by the bond with. the fidelity which has always marked the better class of Southern polit- ieal leaders, was very naturally mistaken by trading Republicans, and for the mat- ter of that, by trading Democrats for a flag of truce. Meanwhile there were South Carolina and Lowisiana to be liberated; the repose of an excited people to be secured; the pacification of the country to be obtained, | made and, seeing Mr. Hayes take a better view | 8° of these than General Grant had ‘taken, Southern men of every shade of opinion anited in saying—what they say to-day— that, asking nothing for themselves and seeking no chauge in their political rela- tions, they stand ready to discount all questions touching the President's advent to power as well as affecting his personal rectitude, and give him a full and fair trial. Thus it was! aud thas'it is. They him. They do not propose to get. up a new party for him. They do not pro- pose to join the Republican party in any event. They propose as. Democrats, but also as patriots, to sustain him in every meas- ure, which truly involves the dissemina- | *™ tion and enlargement of ideas; ' the solidification of the a the ~urification of the public service, President, and learned from him that he had iron on the way to lay some more track Buncombeward.

In the afternoon, at 3 o’clock, the chap- el was again crowded. ‘This time to hear the address of . COL. WALTER ,L. STEELE before the Alumni Association. This ad- dress was a,,rare intellectual treat. It touched upon a variety of subjects con- nected with the University ; and more than once the audiance was convulsed with ladghter by the. speaker relating some: fanny anecdote of his college life, or mak- ing some happy hit. There were rich veins of humor and of genuine eloquence running all through his. desultory dis- course. The whole of it was pleasing in an eminent degree. The s)eaker had a good deal to say about college life in his day, thirty odd years ago. He gave brief but highly in- teresting sketches of the chief characteris- tics of the professors at Chapel Hill when he was a studeut here. He spoke of Dr, Elisha Mitchel, Dr. James Phillips, Ralph H. Graves, Bishop Green, and other mem- bers of the then faculty, He enlarged up- on the influence which this institution has exerted upon the welfare of this and other States of the American Union; and then he portrayed in graphic, fooling terms the desolation that fell upon it, and the steps taken to restore it to its presentreturning usefulness, and. glory. He expressed ap abiding faith in this venerable institution; and rejoiced that prosperity would once more attend her ways. He denounced as utterly untre the charge that the Univer- sity is a nursery only for the sonsof rich men, asserting that ‘‘no young an was ever turned away from her doors because alone of his poverty. If he had the requi- ed enfal aud moral g if gp tions,.,be waral way 5 we rink of its waters freely, : without money and with- out price!’ He invoked those. who haye the institution in charge, to keep it entire- ly free fram politics and sectarianism, as “it belongs téeall people and all denomina- tions of christians.” He made many val- uable suggestions, and concluded by hop- ing to see renewed and. invigorated deter- mination among all our citizens to assist,|. ‘as fav.as possible pot,only in maintaining | . the ancient reputation, but in, enlarging | the, bencficial influence of this noyrishing mother.of North, Carolinians, dress was received with mych applause, and constituted one ef the most attractive literary fentiee of this exAnd, & eccasion,— Raleigh New: fo me NEW, PATENT.

A child should never be al- lowed to. goto sleep with cold feet; the thing to be last attended to is to see that the feet are dry and warm. Neglect of thie has often led to dangerous attacks of ~¢roup, dipteria, or a fatal sore throat. Al- ways-en coming from ‘school, on entering thé house froni a visit orerrand in rainy, muddy, or thawy weather, the child shoald _ yemove its shoes, and the mother herself ain whether the stockings are the least.damp. - If they are, they should be removed, the feet held before the fire and rubbed with the hands ti}! perfectly dry, and ‘another pair of stockings and another pair of shoes put on. The reserve shoes and.stockings should be kept where they are good and dry, so as to be ready for use ip a:minute’s notice. EEE From the Summit (S. C.) Courier.

If we examine the annals of history we find that almost every name which graces its ® has been men who were very zealous in the use of their time. The sweet poet and writer, Sir Thomas Moore, completed hia ‘‘Ctopia” by stealing time from sleep and meals; and Dr. Doddridge asserted that to his habit of early rising the world was indebted for nearly the whole of his works. Jacob Abbott who has been considered by general consent as the best writer for children and youth which the present age has produced, always carried in his pocket a note-book in Which he would jot down his thoughts while travelling and on arriving at the ing place would write up the notes he had taken so as to make them in- teresting. In this way he traversed Eu- rope several times—making his journeys as profitable as they were pleasurable. He. wrote hia first book, the “Young Christian,” at a time when he was preach- ing em the Sabbath and teaching through the week, He would rise at three or four in the morning, write until nearly break- fast, then: lie down for a short nap, and visq@pefteahed for the labors of the day. Of bourse, he had to forego all evening recfestions and be in bed by eight o'clock. Altert Barnes, the autbor of a universally admited Commentary on the Bible, said that he wrete that valuable book in the mosuing before the reat of the world was up; and Thomas Jefferson, one of the oldest statesmen America has ever claimed, as- fer forty years the rising suv bim in bed. The Harper Brothers, whose publishing house is one of the largest in this country, and who bave-sent out to the world so many thou- sand interesting volumes, commenced life as poor printer boys, They had no time to epend in the bail-room, at the theater, or te oa their time with to the grand t they hadin view unti] they ere pinacle of eminence upon which they now stand. Nor are these the ouly examples that-we could mention, for it seems that every man whose life has bettered the world attributes hie success to a proper use anf distribation of bis time. Having seen bow valuable and precious time ia; let us therefore endeavor to im- prove the golden hours as they pass. How isiana, and they took him up and pat him iu the penitentiary for four years. particular charge ajaitiet him was obtain- ing money under false pretenses; ‘but Louisiana justice dwells a.good deal upou gencral principles, and it is probable that they “sent him on” not only because of the moral obliquity which attached to the manver by which be came into possession of the aforesaid money, bat because they thought the pevitentiary was a good place for him. And they do say, too, that the “major” is wanted up in Obio. He is a nice man and is alwaygindemand.

Female society is the sphere in which the “major” shines most cogspicuouadly , and the waters ‘of Marah would be sweeter than this item to his numerous wives and sweethearts throughout the nation, That 4s why we hate to print it, bat business is business and the illustrieus, mast net be left to obscurity. —Ral.

He practiced through this section a year or two ago,—got inte a little trouble as an insurance agent, but got out of it again and left with a mist hangingaboat him. He.is a nice sort of man—very nice—and wanages to keep good company. But in order to ‘*keep up” he must now and then come “down with the dust.” And that he may be able to do this, he must make an occasional ‘‘raise.” And to do this again, some body must “shell out.” How in the dickins is the fellow to “get along” in any other way? Louisiana has put “a stop” to him, and appeals to the world for the rectitude of the action. Let the big jury take the case.] Watchman. >. “ALLOWANCES” NEVER MADE. We were struck the other day by the reply of a musician to a friend who had asked him to play on a piano which was out of tune. Seme ove was present who had not before heard the pianist. “Do play for us,” said the musicians’s friend, “Mr. Blank will make allowances for the condition of the piano.” “Make allowan- ces!” replied the pianist, ‘I have heard that all my life, and it never was and never will be true. Nobody ‘makes al- lowances.’ If a pianist plays on a bad piano, or tenor sivgs when he has a sore throat, ov an orator gets out of his death- bed-to make a speech,—the audience is disappointed because he does not do his best work, and it carries away an impres- sion of the performance which is like- ly to last for a life-time. It’s the same in house-keeping, and dressing, and business, and everything else. People expect the best under all circumstances. There .is no such thing as ‘making allowances.’ ”— Selected, Why He Quit Preaching. A good story is told of a preacher in Iowa, which has the novelty of truth about it. He had been preaching several years with great earnestness and zeal. He pulled off his coat and went in for the harvest of souls. He prayed, exhorted and visited sinners and scoffers in season and out of season. His bread cast upon the waters did not come back to him. His Pay was poor, and his purse always low. It was probably also poor preaching. Al! at once he quit preaching without a word of explanation to anybody. One day a kind-bearted brother went to him and in- quired why he had deserted his post. “Well,” said the preacher, “I'll tell you the truth about it. I thought I had a di- vine call to preach, and I went to work with all my heart. I got very poor pay, and that in good wishes, garden truck and an occasional piece of fractional cur- rency. I prayed over the matter carnest- ly, that God might show mé the right way. All at once! discovered there was & mistake about the matter. The call to preach was intended for another man of the same name down in Warren county, and in some way it got miscarried, and so I quit."—Saturday Beening Post. Saitrvo Over Burien Narions.—The whole channel of the Mediterranean must be atrewed with human bones. Carthagi nians, Syrians, Egyptians, Sidoniana, Per- sians, Greeks and Romans—there they lie, side by side, beneath the eternal wa- ters, and the modern ship that fetches freight from Alexandria, sails in ite whole course over buried nations. It may be the corruption of the dead that now sdds brightness to the phosphorescenes of the waves.

We fear Liverpool was a little hypocritical. If not, then the change.of-opinion since the war has beem something marvelous. Liverpool was much in sympathy with the South, and we honor that great com- mércial city for it. The Alabama was fitted out, manned and provisioned by two hundred and ninety of the leading merchatts of that city. It was Liverpool that gave nine hearty cheers for the aw- ful thrashing the blue coats got at Manas- sag, when the ‘handcuffs were brought along to put upon the conquered Coufed- erates, and when Congressmen came out to see the overthrow of the Southern Con- federacy. Yes, Liverpool thea hurrahed for the South, and we say, in view of that fact, three times three for Liverpool, al- though it shouta for Grant now. But the “eruel war is over” in spite of Morton and Blaine.—Morning Star Sinoucar Co-rxcipgeNnce.-For ten years a suit has been pending in the Superior Court between two citizens of this county, Messrs. T. M. Parks and A. Alexander. It was determined to have the case con- cluded.during the recent session of the court. At the begining of the week both of the parties in the suit were alive and in good health. On thursday of the sec- ond week both died about the same time of day, the funerals of each were preach- ed by the same minister and on the same day in the same church ; they were buried in the same grave yard on the sume day, and about the same time of day. Their remains now lie within twenty feet of each other.—Charlotte Observer. Ought Dogs to be Taxed. (Miltom Chronic.e.) We rise to the question, and answer, they ought by all means. Why not tax dogs, when horses, cattle, hogs and sheep are taxed? We are aware the proposition is vot a very popular one, and a majority of the men sent to our State Legislature are afraid to fuvor it, lest they wight lose a few votes in some future election, but if we were sent to Raleigh to legislate for the yood of the people, we would vute to tax dogs if itkilled us. We would allow every family ove dog subject to a tax of only 50 cents, but all others would be re- quired to pay a tax of $l each. And this dog tax would yield not less than $100,- 000, which should be given to the public schools. Just think of the quantity of provisions consumed annually by the worthless ca- nine tribe in North Carolina! Why, if fed to hogs, the State would have bacon to sell, nor would sheep meat be considered “too good fur niggers,” for there would be an abundance of it. —_——_—_ It is said there isa bottomless bog in an important highway which crosses a corner of a swamp in Litchford county, Coun., that has swallowed up from $100 to $2U0 per year for ten to twelve years. The town has made an attempt every season to fill it up with gravel and stone but unsuccessfully. Last year huge rocks as large as a team of oxen could draw were dumped into it, and for atime the road-bed remained above water, but this spriog it has all gone down again, and the water is over the hubs of the wag- ons that attempt to cross.

And the half Wown bud of five years ago had ripened by this time into a fall blown rose. And Mr. Chandos Dale, sitting there with intense eyes and artist’s soul, all alive to the flute-like richness of her voice, thought that she was simply the most beautiful creature he ever saw. The Mayor of the city where the Signo- ra was singing had a little private recep- tion iu her honor after the opera was over. Chandos Dale, of course was among the invited guests and then Siguora Dalli, knew who he was, “IT have the advantage of him,’ said Signora to herself, smilling a curious smile, “and T shall take care to retain ft.” Just 2 month later Mr. Dale proposed to make the beautiful Signora his wife. ‘Are you really in love with me ? said the Signora, opening wide her almond to burn with jetty lustre.— ‘With me—an opera singer ?’ And Chandos, about as hopelessly in- fatuated as it isin the power of man to be, vowed that he would commit suicide if she@id poGhavehim at ones, ‘Put it in writing,’ said Signora with a laugh. ‘Why? ‘It is my fimcy.’ ‘Your will my law,’ protested Mr. Dale. So he wrote a very pretty and polite de- claration of love on tinted paper, and sent it to the Signora’s suit of apartments at the private hotel. The very same evening he received the very letter which had come to Lionel Dale’s.widow.that October sunset with the penciled bit of sarcasm, and under it written : ‘The young lady who beguiled Mr. Chandog Dale’s brother ipté 4 secret mar- riage hag nécded no assistance from hisre- latives.

She was indebted to one; and the next month she was married to a young Eng- lish gentleman who had followed her bright eyes balf over two coutinents, while Mr. le had the satisfaction of knowing that he had wrought out his own destiny. tia 2 How a Chinaman Caught a Picket Agent.

Evils in gov- ernment grow by success and impunity. They do not arrest their own progress. They can never be limited éxcept by ex- ternal forces. If the men in possession of the government can in one instancé maintain themselves ip power against an adverse decision at the elections, such an example will be imitated, ‘Temptation | exists always. Devices,to give the color of law, and false pretenees on which to found frandulent decisions, will not be wanting. The wrong will grow into a practice if once condoned. In the world’s history, changes iv the succession of gov- ernments have usually been the result of fraud or force. It has been our faith and our pride that we had established a mode of peaceful change to be worked ont by the agency of the ballot-box. The ques- tien now is, whether our election system in ita substance as well as form, ia to be maintained? This is the question of questions. Until it is finally settled there ean: be no politics founded on inferior questions of administrative poliey. It ine volves the fundamental right of the peo- ple. It involves the elective principle. It involves the whole system of popular government. The people must signally condemn the great wrong which ‘has Ween done to them. They must strip this ex- ample of everything that can attract im- itators. They must refuse a prosperous immunity to crime. ‘This ig not all. The people will not be able to trust the au- thors or beneficiaries of the wreng to de- vise remedies, but when those who con- demn the wrong sball have the power, they must devise the measure which shall render a repetition of the wrong forever impossible. If my voice could reach throughont our country and be heard in its remotest hamlet, I would say: ‘Be of good cheer, the Republic will live, the institutions of our fathers are not to ex- pire in shame; the sovereignty of the peo- ple shall be rescued from this peril and re-established.” Successful wrong never appears.so triumphant as on the very eve of its fall. Seven yeara ago a corrapt dynasty culminated in its power over the million of pegple who live in the City of New York. It had conquored, or bribed, or flattered, and won almost everybody into sequjescence. It appeared to bein - vinaible. A yearor twolater its meme bers Were in the penitentiary or in exile. History abounds in similar examples. We must believe in the right and in the future. A great and noble nation will not sever its political from its moral life.” _—~ MISSOURI. Senator Bogy’s Son a Crushed Man. St. Louis, June 14.—A dispatch says: “There is a considerable sensation among the stockholders of the Commercial Fire Insurance Company,-which made an as- signment on Tuesday. Joseph Bogy, son of U.

Among the latter such men as Byron‘and Franklin would certainly be found, and Train in his enthusiasm for these great men exclaimed. “I want to be able to grasp their extended hands if | have to go to h—to de it. ‘And, by .the way, all those in favor of going to h—with me say ‘ay'” The audience responded with a unanimous “aye!” that made the hall ring.

My hen began laying; after she had, aa we say down here, laid her latter, io make assu- rance doubly sure, I set her on a limited nuniber of eggs, six only. Last Wednes- day a week ago was the time set apart for her to bring off her breod of little birdies. On the morning of that day, however, I discovered her witndering about fhe yard foriorn and in evident distress. “I'watgh- ed hgr every movement narrowly and with considerable anxiety you may be sure..

One-fifth of the reported loss oc- currs in Illinois; next in prominence are Missouri, Iowa, and Indiana, which to- gether lose $10,000,000. Florida, Alabama, Mississippi and Lonisiana have nearly as large a percentage of loss in numbers, ag- gregating in value a million and a, half dollars. The reported losses are very gmall in New England, the country bor- dering on the great lakes, and the Pacific coast. Of the remaining districts, West Virginia comes nearest exemption, and Ohio and the Atlantic coast States stand better than the alluvial districts.

In reply tow ‘ta which the wall was mentioned, Rev. Prof. E. F. Rock- WELL writes as follows; “The famous walbin Rowan is a ngtur- al phenomenon, common in the. north ; thoughfifty or more years ago, it was regarded as ap artificial work ; and in old books, such ag Morse’s Geography, spoken of ag a gcurjgsity, Persons often sent it distances for specimens of the rock. The fragments were boxed up and sent abroad. A man once, it is said, dug a week across the width of it to tind the bot- tom, but did not succeed. . It is what in logy is called a dike, a word that sig- nifies a wall. Braude says, ‘“‘when amass of unstratitied or geneous rock, such as granite, trap, or lava, appears as if in- jected into rents and fissures in the strati- tied rock as to intersect the strata, it is called a dyke.” They vary in thickness from a few inches té 20 or 30 yards, they are composed of what is called greenstone, or basalt, from their breaking up into regular shaped fragments, trap rocks ; from a Swedish word trappa, a stairs. “Sometimes, when the melted matter, thrown up from below to fill the crevice, cooled, it formed regular prisms, of 3, 4, 5 sides, &c., as in Giants’ Causeway in Ireland. Generally these columns stand fore ae but insome places about ke Superior, they are found lying on each other, with their smooth ends even, on the side of the wall, as if pieces of tim- ber or fire wood had been sawed off, ex- actly of the same length; and then piled up regular. When the earth is removed, and the ends are exposed to view, they become an interestipg natural phenome- non. All these operations show an effort of nature at crystallization on a large scale. We wish that those who visit this locality would take a compass and mark the di- rection of the wall: whether there is in this respect any relation to the Blue Ridge; whether of uniform thickness ; whéther the oateropping in different places lie jn the same line: would a line drawn in the direetion of one, strike another : when it runs through’another rock, how is the latter affected by it: how related to the bed of granite in the vicinity that contains the trim crystals of felspar: any specimens of the wall north of the South River ?”— Watchman, May 12. “The “Natural Wall” in this county so learnedly naticed abaye, has been ex- posed recently so that it may now be in- spected with good degree of satisfaction. Mr. T. Walton the owner of the premises, with several of his neighbors, by ditching, draining and excavation, have brought out about 15 feet of it in full view with- out disturbing the stones and other ma- ferial of which jt ia composed. It is certainly an interesting subject for the Geologist and the student of nature ; and as there are some intelligent persons who still insist that it may be g work of art, it is of interest to scientist generally. The first impression of the common mind is that it was built by human hands. It is so perfectly wall-like—stand so per- pendicular and accurate in line and breadth—that it is no wonder many should yet believe it is a work of art; for it is not common in this part of the word for na- ture to exhibit herself in this form, She displayes veins in the earth of various kinds and dimension almost everywhere, and they are easily and universally ree- ognized as such. But.in this ease there is 9 wide departure from that order of phe- nomenon, and we have something that stands out in sharp contrast, puzzling the mipd ta reach o satisfactory conclusion as to its true character. The course of the wall is very nearly south-east and north-west, and is tracea- ble by gut:lying stones of the same gen- eral character, scattered on the surface through woods and fi}ds for half a mile or more. We speak now of actual observa- tion, made last week jn company with a patient, perseyering and inqusitive friend, Maj. 8, W, Cole, and regret that time and opportunity did not allow of more extend- ed search. It is believed that the ont- crop at Robley’s and that at Parley Ellis’, about six miloa eaat or goth of east, are parts of the aame line, And gontinuing the same direction to 1! eqst bank of the Yadkin river pear tho rajlruad bridge, we learn that the aame kind of stone ap- pears in a Yorm well enough defined to be tulled the ‘+wall rock.” Going north-west, we hear of it again near Correll’s mill, and again, in the same genera] line, at or near. John D. Johnson’s. A line drawn from Mr. Johnson’s via Corpell’s Mill, Robley’s, and Ellis’ to the eaat end of the Railréad’ bridge acroas the Yadkin, we think would ppt yary much from a true south-east direction ; nor would jt neces- sarily wave very much to tough all the points named. / The wall at Robley's is covered by the soil to the depth of about two fect, The ble hill, which is govered with forest trees. At the point of exposure the wall is em- bedded in decomposed granite, and the |it of distinction between that and fe line terial of which if js pomposed is sharp and “ P agents are to be met with in almost every | does . : not ani te tant of ren seg" eee r , resembling iron | to ly coated with a mater ; rust, which may be cut away with a knife ree arés, horizontal, and trans- weriene oe rm jn many places closely resemble.

I had a light breeze against me the whole way going and coming, so that no use was made of my sales; and the voyage has been performed wholly by the power of the steam engine. I overtook many sloops and schooners bearing to windward, and passed them as if they had been at anchor. The power of propelling boats by steam is now fully proved. The morning I left New York there were not perhaps thirty persons in the city who believed that the boat would ever move one mile an hour or be of the least utility. And while we were putting off from the wharf, which was crowded with spectators, I heard a number of sarcastic remarks; this is the way you know in which ignorant men compliment what they call philosophers and projectors. Having employed much time and mon- ey and zeal in accomplishing this work, it gives me, as it will you, great pleasure to see itso fully answer my expectations. It will give a quick and cheap conveyance to merchandise on the Mississippi, Mis- souri, and other great rivers which are now laying open their treasures to the en- terprise of our countrymen. And although the prospect of personal *emolument has been some inducement to me, yet 1 feel infinitely more pleasure in reflecting with you on the immense advantage that my country will derive from the invention. However, I will not admit that it is half so important as the Torpedo system of defence and attack; for out of this will grow the liberty of the sea; an object of infinite importanes to the welfare of America and every civilized conntry. But thousands of witnesses have now seen the steamboat in rapid movement, and they belieye=-but they have not seen a ahip of war deatroyed by a torpedo, and they do not believe. We cannot expect people in general to have a knowledge of physics, or power of mind sufficient to combine ideas and reason from causes to effects. But in cage we have war, and the enemy’s ships come into our water, if the govern- ment will give me reasonable means of action, I will soon convince the ‘world that we have aurer and cheaper modes of defeuce than they are aware of, NEW YORK, OMINOUS PROCEEDINGS ON THE TEXAS BORDER, Printers Withdrawing ‘froin the Printer’s Union, UNION MOULDERS OBTAINING EM- PLOYMENT IN NON-UNION FOUNDRIES.

[Speqial to Richmond Dispsteh.} SHE PERUTY MARSHALS OF NORTH CARO- Wasuixgton, June 13. Investigations of the transactions of the Deputy Marshals of Western North Caro- lina show thaf*not one-third ‘of the fm: yen s charged against the Govern- i the last three years has been These frauglulent operations have had ex- tensive ramifications and increased with fearfal rapidity during the period when the Presidency was in doubt. It was gen- erally believed down there that Tilden would! sueéedil Grant; and as he would have made a clean sweep of the Federal officers in power, they determined to make hay while the sun yet shone, but they ruined themselves by overdoing the job. OVERCHARGES AND FALSE CITARGES. The favorite mode, as previously detail- ed in these dispatches, was to make over- charges for mileage, and false charges for guarding and feeding prisoners. The loose notiens ameng many people of that part of North Carolina about evading or violating the revenue laws in relation to the manufacture of whiskey furnished a rich field to be cultivated by nimble dep- uties. not oppressed with too much con- science, and stimulated to activity by small pay. Ip one case a half-dozen men were arrested and putin irons and carried from house to house among their friends in the same neighborhood for nearly a week before they were taken to the court louse, only seven miles distant. And for this the Government was charged as if the prisoners had been transported seven- ty miles and boarded and guarded for five days. The soldiers who acted as guards were put down as civil guards, and the accounts sworn to as correct, though FRAUDULENTLY RAISED TO TEN TIMES THE SUM. More lately a sharp officer arrested a druggist for vivlation of the revenue laws, having found an unstamped bottle of tax- able liquid on sale in his store. Thesum- mons, arrest and examination took place on the spot, but mileage, guards, board, &c., were charged against the government. Western North Carolina is flooded with these bogus warrants, technically called ‘“‘pay rolls,” whicli are certified by United States commissioners, the signatures gen- erally being forged, and they pass as cur- rency among the mountain people. Fre- quently they are given as “boot” in horse trades, and some parties do a thrifty bus- ivess discounting them. A man named Sluder is particularly mentoined in this connection. OFFICERS WHOSE RESIGNATIONS WILL BE ASKED FOR. When Hester went to-North Carolina to work up the frauds committed in Marshal Douglas’ office, he found that a package of documents which had been forwarded from the Attorney General’s office had been opened in the post-office at Asheville before his arrival, and the suspected par- ties fully informed of the object of his visit. ‘This caused only temporary delay, as the proofs were in possession of the government. There is good reason to believe that Marshal Robert Douglas, Postmaster Fagg at,Asheville, the Collectors of the First, Fourth and Fifth districts, Djstrict Attorney Lusk, and perhaps Judge Dick himself, will be asked to resign or be re- moved, —- —-- — WASHINGTON, Jane 16.—The New York Custom House Commission will recomend the dismissal of two hundred and fifty employes, 0.

Mexicans Oaptured in an Engagement on arp Soil. Wow't Accept James Russell Lowell’s Re- siqnation, WaAsHINGTon, June 18.—It is under- stood that Hayes will spend a portion of July and August, at the Greenbrier White Sulphur Springs. He has engaged a cot- tage there for bis family. Sherman has directed the Assistant United States Treasurer to issue one and and two dollar notes in sums not exceed- ing ten dollars. General Sheridan telegraphs officially, and substantially confirms the Galveston News’ special, regarding the Mexican fight on American soil, near Fort Clark, and the capture of several Mexican officers and forty-five men, for violation of the new treaty. Sheridan regards the pris- oners as a bard set, and wants to get rid of them, but the War department directs that they be fed and detained. Harvard College refuses to accept James Russell Lowell's ‘resignation, and has given him leave of absence to go to Spain as minister, nals off Fire Island. °° ° ) Secretary Sherman has designated R.

DerarrMent oF AGRICULTURE, © a pay Me ry of May,: from Spe- cial lents for their. respective Coupties, received at this. office to date: It ig ta be regretted that all the Counties are uot included, bot in many of them niy application for Correspondents has. not yet been responded to, and hence they are not represented.’ It is hoped, however, that each County will hereafter gecupy its place on tlie list. This report is publish- ‘ed With thé hape'phat it ‘will prove inter- esting to our farmers, gnd that they may glean lessons from, the facts presented, to aid and guide them jn their efforts at im- provement. The contjnued rains of early spring, followed by the usual drought for the season, extending thraugh the entire month, and’ which prevailed generally throughout the whole, greatly retarded the crops, especially Cetten, Tebacco, Corn and Oats. In nearly all the Cotton producing Counties reported, the acreage of that crop has been reduced, while but one County reports an increase. With but few exceptions the condition of the crop is yery unfavorable, but it may yet do well, where good stands were obtain- ed, and attended with favorable seasons during the period of its growth. Gener- ally the reduction in the ‘acreage of Cot- ton has found a corresponding inerease in other valuable crops especially Grain and the Grasses. The average condition of the Wheat crop is very fine and prom- ises a large yield. Though the area de- voted to the Oat erop has been enlarged it will necessarily be short, having suffer- ed great damage from the dry weather which set in just at that stage in its growth when the effects were most deleterious. The Corn crop is generally unpromising, partially from the same cause, but great complaint is made of the ravages of the bud worm, especially in the middle and eastern counties. The fruit crop is most excellent and is fast becoming a leading interest in many sections. The use of commercial fertilizers has been greatly curtailed in many Counties, more atten- tion being given to home-made mannres. To encourage our farmers in this com- mendable departure from the almost ruin- ous habit of buying their fertilizers, for- mule fur manufacturing them at home, and for composting, furnished by our Chemist, Dr. A. R. Ledoux, will be issued from this office in time for the fall crops. A general survey of the field affords abund- ant reason to be grateful for the encour- aging prospect. The most gratifying feature in all of these reports, is the gen- erally earnest interest evinced in all sec- tions of the State, on the subject of Grass- es. Never in the history of the State has there been such interest manifested. Nev- er so large an area devoted to this great and important crop, and that area rapidly increasing, and never was there a more opportune time .for its successful introduc- tion as a prominent crop. The fallacy of the long entertained opinion, that a very large portion of our State was unsuited to the successful growth of the Grasses, has been happily demonstrated by actual ex- periment, and it is encouraging jto note, that no correspondent has reported a fail- ure whenever they have been tried, but on the contrary the experiment has been uniformly satisfactory. Whenever our people shall resolve to declare themselves free from the exacting and oppressive rule of ‘King Cotton” and shall avail them- selves of the unsurpassed advantages and inducements afforded by our diversity of soil and climate to raise their own sup- plies, then, indeed, will our deliverance be at hand. L. L. POLK, Commissioner. pe PRESIDENT HAYES’ PROPOSED VISIT TO THE SOUTH. [Petersburg Index. Appeal.) The Petersburg Index-Appeal learns, on the best authority, that President Hayes has given positive assurance of his intention to visit the South as soon as his duties will permit. What sort of recep- tion will be given him _—Raleigh News. He will be received with all the respect due the President of the Uunited States, and with all the more favor in Petersburg because he has lately appointed a post- master for the city whom everybody in it holds in just esteem. The people of Petersburg do not propose to establish any court, on the occasion of the Presi- dent’s visit, to decide whether the title by which he holds his office is de facto or de jure. They may hold private views on that subject not likely to be consolate- ry to Mr. Hayes; but the practical ground which they oceupy in the matter is that Mr. Hayes will have to be treated as President until somebody else having a better claim to.the erown shall make the same good. In all probability they will wait three years er more until that consummation ; and in the meantime Mr. Hayes, whenever he comes to look at the Sulphur Spring, the Crater, the Tabb Street steeple, and the other wonders of art and curiosity in ang araund the ci will continue to be reeeived..¢yery " Raumaw, (N.C.

World’s Exposition, 1876 MASON & HAMLIN CABINET ORGANS Unanimously assigned the “FIRST RANK 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 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 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 ot 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 Reporta of the Judges, from which the following is an extract: “THE MASON & HAMLIN ORGAN CO.’s exhibit of Reed Ofgans and Har- moniums shows Instruments of the F ANK IN THE SEVERAL RE- aE S 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 wor manship, combined with simplicity of action.” (Signed by ali the Judges.) The Mason and Ham- lin Organs ar’ thus declared to rank first, not EXAL REQUISITES of such instruments, and they are the ONLY ones assigned this rank. This triumph was not unexpected, for the Mason & Hamlin Cabinet Organs have oniformly been awarded the, highest honers in competitions in America, there baving. been scarcely six exceptions in hundreds ot competitions. They were awarded — highest honors and FIRST MEDALS Paris 1867; Viewna ‘73 Santiago 79; PHILADELPHIA, 1876, and have thus been awarded highest hovors at Every World’s Exposition at which they have been exhibited; beiug the ONLY AMERICAN ORGANS which have ever obtained ANY AWARD “ any competieice Mate best European makers, or yorld’s exposition !

LC ES a MARVELOUS JUGGLERY, The inegicrs af India have for centuries been 9 for theip remarkable skill in the mysteries of ifblack art.” The editor pfthe Commercial Bulletin, traveling in the East, has cantributed to that paper some very jnteresting letters qn the cys- toma of the strange people he has visited. Under the above heading he tells, in the jast issue, his readers that ‘convalescence js & capita] time for mild amnsements which will not tire the languid brajn, and we had some jugglers up almost eyery day. We neyer could find out their tricks, which are very marveleys. Of course, fverybody has heard of the basket trick, where a small boy gets inside 9 basket, and the juggler plunges a sword through and through ft, bringing it ant reeking with blood, then holds up the hasket, shows there's nothing there, and calls the boy, who calmly appears from outside the circle of spectators, And glso of the man, fo trick, where a seed jg placed in the ground, is covered with a cloth, and ap: pears as 9 shrab, growing visibly before pne’s very gyes, and then bears fruit, which ripens and js edible jn fiya minutes from first planting. These fellows have very seauty clothing, and apparently no apparatys whatever, There are some wiseacres who profess to knew all about these tricks, I neyar aqw the digembow- eling and jr mediate healing of fakirs, in India, nar men sitting in the air, flevita- ted,’ as Madame Blavatsky calls it. But I have seon other tricks as surprising, and equally unaccountable by any art or science with oa Europeans or Ameri- rans appegr to be acquainted nowadays. I have seen g man throw up into the air @ number of ballg numbered in succession from one upwards, As each went up, and there was no deception about their going up, the pall was geen clearly in the air, getting smaller and smaller til) it dis- appeared altogether out of sight, When they were all yp, twenty or more, the operator would politely ask which ball youn wanted to see, and then would shout out ‘No, 1,’ No. 15,’ and so on, as instruct- ed by the spectators, when the ball de- we a ar be " me manded would bound to his feet, ly from some remote distance, Yr uaret cobret | wasiibhomiows with wafer, drunk in the native fasbion in a contjngous stream from 9 lotah, or brass pot, held at arm's length from the lips, and keep on drinking til] the swollen body gould not hold another drop, and watey gyerflgwed from the lips. Then those fellows, after squirting out the water in their mouths, have spat out the three powders on @ clean piece of paper, dry and numixed. Ag to the thimble-riggery of their minor tricks, they are exeeedingly expert, but are probably equalled by many of our distinguished prestidigitateurs; and whatgyer may be said of the basket and mango tricks, or the sitting in the air, ] don’t think any of our people gre up to the sending of balls into space and fecall- ing them in an unpremeditated arder, This reminds me of the trick Marco Polo, the great Venetian traveler of earlier times, speaks of having geen at the Court of Prester John, in Central Asia, when a bean wag planted and sprung up rapidly toward the heavens, its summit being lost in the clouds. Up this, one juggler trav- eled, apd then another after him, with a drawn sword. In a few minutes, down drops ears, ~ nose, a head, and limbs of No. 1; No, 2 Jetsurely descends, wiping a bloody sword, shovels up the fragments of his victim into a box, and goes ou with other performances, presently ealling out for his defamct companion, who thereupon presents himself, as large aa life, all alive and kicking, from the throng. This is not a modern trick, but those I have seen are certain}y not less mayveloua, Then, too, it is » well authenticated fact that some of these jugglers, on more than one occasion in recent years, have suffered themselyes to be buried alive, and have been dug out alive pfjer the lapse of a year,” ~ib>o——— NIAGARA AND THE POTOMAC. What a giant is Niagara! Her falls have a 17,000,000 horse power. For hun- dreds of years this mighty force has roar- ed and dashed itself in fury agninst its rock-bound channel, but aside from its being a grand spectacle it has been almost valueless to humanity unless to venders of Indian trinkets, swimming hotels and bilking hackmen gre benetits. But at last this 17,000,000 horse power is to be set at work in the interests of human in- dustry. This strength of 17,000,000 of horses is to be harnessed and placed under the guidance and control of man, The company which was some time ago formed for the purpose of utilizing this | great water force seems to be in earnest. Every effort that money and energy can exert is being exercised to put this enor- mous power into trim for driving ma- chinery. The water which passes over | the falls is estimated at one million tons per hour, and its perpendicular descent noderately . rior. Care should be taken, | gan firing. may be taken at 150 feet without inclu- ding the rapids, which represent a further fall of 150 feet, The force represented by the principal fall alone is 16,800,000 horse power, an amount which, if produced by steam, would require an expenditure of | not less than 266,000,000 tons of coal per annom. As there is but an average of | 275,000,000 tons of conl produced from | the mines throughont the world annually, | it is readily to be seen that Niagara once | under the control of man, would exert | more force than all the steam power on | earth. Thego remarkable facts will at once | raise the question, why do not the capital- | ists of Washington make an effort to util- | ize the enormous water power which is | now running to waste in the Little and | Great Falls of the Potomac?

One afternoon, not long sinee, Detective Pryde stepped on board the steamer Mande as she touched the levee, and ap- proached a brunette leading a white poo- dle, politely told her that she was wanted on a telegram recefved from St. Louis. “It's my lusband,” said she: “I'll wait, but he can never induce me to live with him again.” She walked to Worsham House with a firm tread, and her little white poodle trotted’ behind her, The husband arrived in due time. An inter- view was arranged and took place. Mr, approgehed madam with extended hand, but madam would have none of it. What did the deserted husband then ? He knew well the path to the woman heart, Ten- derly and gently he léd her memory back to the little cradle and its baby inmate, in which nngled their blood in eommon; thence he brought to her mind the baby shoes, the little torn apron, the ball, the marble—al]l that remained of their idol, now in Heaven, The mother’s heart, throngh the little dead form and the sad pleture of the white flowers on o short coffin, warmed again towards tbe father of her boy. Her face twitched with emo- tion, and as the bright days of the honey- moon were brought back to her thoughts, sobs shook her frame, and between tears she said: “I'll return with you.” The battle was won.—Memphis Avalaneh. ~_>-- A LIFE FOR FIFTY CENTS. Some time last fall, Dan Colyer and Bailey of Wakenda, Mo., had a dis- pute about 50 cents; one claiming the amount as due him, the other denying the claim. Bailey said, “If you don’t pay me, I'll sue you,” and Colyer replied, “If you sue me Ill whip you.” Bailey brought suit, and Coyler made his word good. Bailey came out second best; but, still believing that he was able to make Colyer regret his conduct, uttered a threat, say- ing, “This is not settled yet; Pll make it all right before long.” On Friday last, as Colyer was leaving the mill at Wakenda, Bailey arrived, and discovering his old antagonist, called out to him: “Dan, I guess we will settle that little affair now.” Each party drew his revolver and be- Who fired the first shot is} not certainly known, but both continued | until their pistols were emptied, and then, | closing in, clubbed their weapons and | ‘used them in that way until separated.|~ Colyer was struck once in the abdomen, the ball lodging near the spine.

I was assured that they could imitate any quality or pattern of cloth that might be given to them.” The other woolen arti- cles made are chiefly earpets, generally in long narrow stripes of bright color, some- thing like the Spanish blankets; rugs of different patterns, cushion or pillow cases, in the provinces or to the Constantinople market, and I do not think that there is any export for them ; indeed, as the sheep of Roumelia give only about two pounds and three-quarters of wool to a fleece, the amount. produced is probably barely suffi- cient for internal consumption. One of the most striking things in these villages is the apparently ceaseless industry of the women and girla, every one of whom, whether seated on the door-step, walking in the streets, or going to the fountain with her pails over her shoulder ena yoke like a milk-maid, always carries a hank of wool tied on a distaff under one arm, and twirls a spindle. In Kazan I walked for twenty minutes without being able to find one—literally one—woman and girl about eight years of age without thia ac. companiment, and mothers carry their little babies in a short of bag on their backs, so as to have their hands free to use the spindle. —_—————-2 A Boston type-maker, who oceasionally dumps old type into his melting kettle, has several times been scared half out of his wits by violent explosions in the mol- ten fluid; and now, after investigation into the cause thereof, he request the printers of New England not to put any more pistol cartridges into their old type.

Mr. Farwell madea brief address, thank - ing the convention for the honor confered in electing him te the position of presid- ing officer. In the evening a welcome meeting was held. Library Hall was crowded to over- flow. E t addresses of welcome were deliyered by Mr. Frank D. Carley President of the Louisville Association, Charlea D. Jacobs, Esq,, Mayor of the city, ’! and Rev. Stuart Robinson, D. D. The lat- ter gave a most unqualified endosement of the Association, and of the work in which they are engaged. He said: I esteem it no ordinary honor to have been called to the very pleasant duty of extending to the International Convention of the Y. M. C. A. the distinctive welcome of the evangelical churches to our city. And now, in their name, I say, brethren, “Welcome, welcome—thrice welcome!” And you may rest assured this is no mere empty word of formal politeness on the one hand, nor gushing sentimentalism on the other, bat a word that comes from our hearts just because we like you, and that becanac, from calm, sober conviction, these ehurehes honor and appreciate your efforts to bring honor to the Great King Jesus, whom they all recognize as their adorable Head. While the Y. M. C. A. seeks to use the. secondary inflaence of the Gospel as the great agency for promoting the social and temporal welfare of young men, this is by no means the great end of its efforts but only a means to an infiuitely higter end— even the salvation of their souls, and to | lead them to become co-workers with Christ in the salvation of other souls.

Association Work in its Peeuliar Adaptations to the Wants and Tempta- tions of Young Men. Each session is opened by a Bible read- ing or half heur of devotional services. The most important item of business was the report of the executive commit- tee, which was presented at the first day's It gave a detailed statement of the work of the committee for the past year and of the general association work. {In 1864 there were but 65 associations, which were isolated organizations. Now there are over 1,000 organizations bound -together under interational, state and provincial committees, with over 100,000 members. The work then was indefinite ; now it is largely in the interest of young men. Then moral men were admitted to active membership, and the work was largely benevolent and superficial; now professing Christian young men control the societies, and the work looks to the conversion of young men. Then there was not an association building; now there are 48, valucd at #2,000,000, and with other property owned by the associ- ation, aggregate almost $3,000,000. The expenditure of the committee for the year was $16,000, and added to this the state and association expenses paid amount to almost $500,000. Eighty-three hundred men were provided with employment. The average weekly attendance on the as- sociation Bible clusses is 8,138. ‘Then two | general secretaries were employed ; new there are 123 general secretaries and agenta. Mr. Robt. Weidensal and L. W. Manhall presented reports of the work in the west; Thos. K. Cree, Geo. A Hall, i Joseph Hardie and 8. A. Taggart, of the work in the south; George D. Johnston, of the work for colored young men in the south; Thomas K. Cree, in Ontario; E. D. Ingersoll, among railroad men, and R. C. Morse as secretary of the committee. The committee thank the secular and religious press for the assistance given the work during the year, and recommend that $20,000 be devoted to the work for the coming year, The following telegram was sent to the Convention of the Woman’s Christian As- séciations at Montreal : Loutsvitce, Ky., June 6, 1877.— Zo the President of the Woman's Christian Asso- ciation, Montreal, Canada: The Young Men’s Ubristian Associations, in tonven- tion assembled, send Christian greetings.

The topic that elicited most enthusiasm was the one on “Work among Railroad Men,” a large nuniber of railroad men were present and the disctission’ was en- thusiastie and interesting, The topic, “Work in behalf of Colored Men” was one in which the Convention evinced a deey interest.

The time of the convention was natural- ly taken up with the work of the State and Provincial committees, and the very important and growing International work, conducted by the committee of the con- vention. The distinctive work for young men of the individual associations, though considered here, is more thoroughly dis- cussed in the twenty-four State and Pro- vineial conventions, which have grown out of this parent convention. The ques- tions considered were all practical and full of interest. The subscription to the International work amounted to six thousand dollars, which will be largely increased by pri- vate subscriptions. The convention concluded its business sessions Saturday evening, and Sunday a chisdren’s meeting, a meeting for young men and the farewell meeting were held. Many of the most prominent association men of the country are in attendance, and have taken a prominent part in the delib- erations of the convention. The conven- tion adjourned Sunday night, to meet in Baltimore in 1879, TK: —_—_—__< -@-e— NORTIT CAROLINIANS IN WASH- INGTON. a Wasnixctox, June 20.—The Republi- cans of North Carolina are not harmoni- Major William A.

To every man of the four and a quarter mil- lions who were defranded of the fruits of their elective franchise, it is as great a wrong as it is to me. And no less to every man of the minority will the ulti- mate consequences extend, Evils in goy- ernment grow by suceess and impunity. They do not arrest their own progress. They can never be limited except by ex- ternal forces. If the men in possession of thg government can in one instance maintain themselves in power against an adverse decision at the elections, such an example will be imitated. Temptation exists always. Devices, to give the color of law, and false pretences on which to found fraudulent decisions, will not be wanting. The wrong will grow into a practice if once condoned. Inthe world’s history, changes in the snecession of gov- ernments have usually been the result of fraud or force. It has been our faith and our pride that we had established a mode of peaceful change to be worked out by the agency of the ballot-box. The ques- tion now is, whether our election system in its substance as well as form, is to be maintained? This is the question of questions. Until it is finally settled there can be no politics founded on inferior questions of administrative policy. It in- volves the fundamental right of the peo- ple. It involves the elective principle. It involves the whole system of popular government. The people must signally condemn the great wrong which has been done to them. They must strip this ex- ample of everything that can attract im- itators. They must refuse a prosperous immunity to crime. This is not all. The people will not be able to trust the au- thors or beneficiaries of the wreng to de- vise remedies, but when those who con- demn the wrong shall have the power, they must devise the measure which shall render a repetition of the wrong forever impossible. If my voice could reach throughout our country and be heard in its remotest hamlet, I would say: “Be of good cheer, the Republic will live, the institutions of our fathers are not to ex- pire in shame; the sovereignty of the peo- ple shall be resened from this peril and re-established.” Suecessful wrong never appears so triumphant as on the very eve of its fall. Seven years ago a corrupt dynasty culminated in its power over the million of people who live in the City of New York. It bad cdhquored, or bribed, or flattered, and won almost everybody into acquiescence. It appeared to be in- vineible. A year or two later its mem- bers were in the penitentiary or in exile. History abounds in similar examples. We must believe in the right and in the future.

Give Texas’ population in preportion'to Belgium.and the New Dominion would have more than 120,000,000 inhabitants, ot three etimes the popalation of the United States. It is estimated that only one-twentieth of the arable land of the State is in cultiva- tion, while a year ago 55,000,000 acres of land were still vacant, awaiting pre-emp- tion and location.. Cotton, corn, and wheat are the main staples, though large quan- tities of oats, rye, sugar-cane, rice, and tobacco are raised. Texas has an area of cotton land sufficient to produce the en- tire crop now raised in this country. This State is the greatest cattle produc- ing region ifthe world, and here. are to be found the largest enclosed pastures and the largest cattleowners, Ten of her stock men alone own over one million head of cattle and have 682,000° acrés of pastures undet fence. Itis estimated that about 350,000 beeves are shipped from Texas annually, One cattle monarch sold 64,000 head toa single purchaser last year. Texas may be said to have her cattle up- on a thousand plains as well as on a thous- and hills.. Notwithstand all this, I was re- peatedly told, whilein the State, that Texas stands first in the amount of condensed milk consumed. It seems strange to See “cans of condensed milk on the breakfast table in this great cattle State; and yet it be- comes a familiar sight after awhile. The idea in Texas is not to make milk and butter, but to raise cattle. The surface of the State is an ‘inclined plane rising gradually from the gulf to| the west and northwest, where there are mountains of moderate. elevation. The immense prairies of the Lone Star State look like the ocean on land ; indeed, ifel were to attempt to give any one who had seen these prairies and not the ocean, an idea of the latter, I should use the prairies as the first and best illustration. These vast level and rolling prairies stretching out as far as the can eyereach, present one of the grandest signts to be seen in Texas. —Prof. J. D. Dreher in Collegian. _>—— GEORGIA “COLONELS.” The Atlanta (Ga.) Constitution contains the following: “We want it distinctly understood, be- fore we proceed any further, that we are a friend of the colonel if he is not a mili- tary colonel. A military colonel has no right to the title. He may have earned itin the war, right in front of the can- non’s mouth, but more pedceful days have dawned upon us, and now we have the insurance colonel, the sewing-machine colonel, the dry goods colonel, the com- mission colonel, the grocery eolonel.—You may pick your colonet from any pile you choose, and we'll stand up promptly and say we admire him. There is honor in the title, and we take pleagure in bestow- ing it upon friend and foe alike. To bea man, and not be a colonel» (unless, you, were promoted during the war), is some- thing preposterous.—We can conceive of no such misfortuneas that which prevents a man from becoming a colonel in his own right. There is no law on the statute- book against it, and if there were it would be a dead letter. community, and every family would cry out against the injustice of an enactment depriving them of their, usual quota of colonels. For our part we think there ought to be a law passed conferring the title of colonel upon every male child ov- er twelve years of age, without regard to color or previons condition. In that case all men would be colonels and the women would be colonelesses. Here is the true line of progress. While colonels are in fashion let us make the most of them.— Let us utilize them, as it were, for the purpose of advancing civilization.

Fog litdie attention is paid ta the pest. ing place of the dead, throughout the Southern States; but as it ia uever too late to improve, and we doubt pot return- ing prosperity will witness more general improvement on this aubjest, The peo- ple of the Lutheran congregations in this county have set a good example on this and similar subjects since the war. They have not only repaired grave yard walls, wut have built several new ones, out-and- eut, and several nice churches ; and alto- gether have displayed a zeal in church matters highly creditgb)je to them as thureh people ang citizeas. Generally there is no pinn in jaying off burial places in our cemeteries, conser quently graves are dotted about in a dis- orderly manner, It would cost nothing ta change all thjs cogfusion by laying off the ground jnta aquaryes or ranks with walks between them, This would greatly fucil- itate the anuual cleaning up of the prem- ises, thys protecting theg; from bush and brier, weeds and grass, which too often take ssion of the grounds and make it diffigyjt to trace old graves. The gem- eteries of this plage (old ones) weye never laid gut with order, and g few years back presented a seeue of utter confasion, and it was no uncommon thing, in making new graves, for the sexton to strike his known denant of the gragnd, Buf by a little careful attention on the part of the ejty puthorities latterly, and a smal] ex- penditure of money, beautiful order has been brought out of this confusion, and our cemeteries have become neat and ate tractive.

Taking for granted that all have read, or will read the circular, published by you last week, setting forth and explaining the proposed scheme, let me simply state one or two reasons why oar Teachers should accept the liberal offers made. First, it will lead to a far greater degree of system iu sehool-room work. This will be shown in uniformity of text books, The constant changing of text books—a new aeries for every new Teacher—has become mserious evil, both financially and educationally. Under the present system, er want of system, no one, perhaps is very much to blame. Each Teacher selects the text books with which he is most familiar, or, in hia judgment, which are most suita- ble. Let bim attend the Normal School, where the best educational talent of the State is soon to meet, and there he may have such light thrown upon the subject as will lead to a wise selection of authors and a fixedness of text books.

We are reliably informed of a remarka- ble incidént connected with the death ofa lady of this city during the past week. She pwned a valuable dog, and the animal had never beet inthe habit of going in- side of the house and had never been known, from a puppy, to leave the lot. On the night succeeding the death of the lady, and while a number of friends were gitting in the room with the corpse, the dog came to the door, which were shut, and scratched and pawed at it until it was opened, when he deliberately walked to the place where the body was lying, sniff- ed at it once or twice, and then walked out, The next morping the dog was miss- ing, a fact which was so mysterious and unaccountable, owing to the known do- mestic qualities of the animal, that amem- ber of the family sent to see if he had not been taken up and placed in the city pound. Nothing more was seen or heard of the dog until that afternoen, when, as the funeral reached the entrance to Belle- vue Cemetery, he run ont and met it, and then followed with the mourners to the grave, where he kept ap a most dismal howling and whining while the last sad rites to his departed mistress were being performed. The sexton of the cemetery said he found the dog there early that morning, that he was present when he Tepes the grave, and remained there during the entire day until the funeral procession arrived.— Wilmington Star. a THE OLD STORY ABOUT MARSHALL NEY. (Sedalia dispatch ia Chicago Times.) Col. Thomas F. Houston, a well known farmer and stock-dealer, who resides near Houston, claims to have been a pupil of Peter Stuart Ney, one of Napoleon's great- est Marshale. Aecording to Ney’s own words, related to Col. Houston when a mere lad, he escaped his death sentence by the soldiers firing over his head. He feigned death, was taken in charge by friends, disguised, and shipped as a sailor hfrom Bordeaux, France, to Charleston, S. C. Ina few years he removed to Rowan county, Nath Cyrolina, where he taught school for several years, a portion of that time boarding with Col. Houston's father. He fondly cherished the hope that Napo- leon’s star would again rise in splendor, and when the information of his death reached bine he acted like a madman, and only through persistent efforts of friends was prevented from committing suicide. He left a lengthy history written iu Freneb, which was transmitted to the New York Historical Society for translation, but throngh some neglect was never carried out. Col. Houston retains several me- mentoes of his illustrious preceptor, among them his Latin grammer, spectacles, pocket-knife, and several verses of origin- al poetry, ete. —— The Tarboro’ Southerner thus describes a new dance called the German: Qu Wednesday the exercises roper began.

She | pokes out first one foot and then the other, | and looks about to see what she can find | as a canse of complaint. ‘“‘Must I wear that: hatefal dress ? she exclaims presently, I want to wear my new one, and my rnuffied apron.” “That dress will do you this week, dear,” mamma answers cheerfully. But it is no use. Kitty Clover cries. Between daylight and dark she sometimes cries sixteen times. Yet, strange to say, it is only at home that she behaves so. In school, her teacher tells us, she is a very good child. No- where, except where mama is, is our little girl so cross and fretfal. What shall we do with Kitty? Weare afraid that a packer is growing on her pretty forehead, and that the tears will wash all the brightness out of her blue eyes. Is there nothing that Kitty herself could do to help mend this dreadful state of affairs ?
