Yes and let him know That yon love him, e’er life’s evening Tinge his brow with sunset glow. Why should good words ne’er be said Of a friend—till he is dead! lf you hear a song that thrills yoa, Sung by any child of song, Praise it. Do not let the singer Wuit deserved praise long. Why should one who thrills your heart Lack the joy you may impart? If you heard a prayer that moves you, By its bamble, pleading tone, Join it. Do not let the seeker, Bow before his God alone. ‘Why should not your brother share The strength of “two or three” in prayer? If you see the hot tears falling From a brother's eyes, Share them. Aud-by sharing Own your kinship, with the ssics. Why should any one be glad When a brother's heart is sad ? If a silvery laugh goes rippling Through the sunshine on his face, Share it. "Tis the wise man’s saying— For both grie! and joy a place. There’s bealth aud goodvess in the mirth Iu which an houest laugh has birth. If your work is made more easy By a friendly helping hand, Say so. Speak out brave and traly, Ere the darkness veil the land. Should a brother workman dear Falter for a word of cheer? Scatter thus your seeds of kindness, All enriching as you go-— Leave them. Trust the Harvest Giver, He will make each sced to grow. So until its happy end, ; Your life shall never lack a friend. —Selected. > aa For the Watchman. Effects of Alcohol on the Humax System. “By common observation the flush seen on the cheek during the first stage of alco- holic excitation is presumed to extend to the parts actually expesed to view merely. Itcannot, hewever, be too forcibly im- pressed, that the condition is universal in the body. If the lungs could be seen, they would be found with their vessels injected ; if the brain and spinal chord could be laid open to view, they would be discovered in the same condition; if the stomach, the liver, the spleen, the kidneys, or any other | vascular organ or parts could be exposed to view, the vascular engorgement would be equally manifest, The action of alcohol continued beyond the first stage, the function of the spinal chord is influenced. the nervous system we are accustomed, in health, to perform automatic acts ef a me- chanical kind which proceed systematically even when we are thinking or speaking on other subjects. * * * * Under alcohol, as the spival centres be- come influenced, these pure automatic acts cease to be correctly carried on. That the hand may reach any object, or the foot be correctly planted, the higher intellectual centre must be invoked to make the pro- ceeding secure. There tollows quickly upon this a defi- cient power of co-ordination of muscular movement. The nervous control of certain of the muscles is less enfeebled. The muscles of the lower lip in the human sub- ject usually fail first of all; then the mus- cles of the lower limbs. The muscles themselves by this time are also failing in power; they respond more teebly than is natural to the nervous stimu- lus: they too are coming under the de- pressing influence of the paralysing agcnt ; their structure is temporarily deranged, and their contractive power reduced, * * * * The alcoholic spirits carried yet a further Practice in Supreme Court of the United | States, Supreme Court of North Carolina, Federal Courts, and Counties of Mecklenburg, Cabarrus, Union, Gaston, Rowan and David- ta Oflice, two doors east Sf Indepen- dence Square 35:tf aon } { J.

In agriculture we have been busy during these years, and the above laige increase is not by any means to be attributed wholly to manutactures or railroad building.

Big “Find” of Gold in Warren—$1,000 in Six Hours—Its Owner is Robbed of it all in a Few Minutes. Mr. Edward Alston, of Fork township, this county, is a most fortuuate man. He has long known that thére was a good deal of gold on his place; but has never systematically worked it. Recently a Mr. Irwin, from Onslow county, this State, has been pruspecting there without ma- chinery of any kind. Last week, between sunrise and sunset, Mr. Irwin found what miners call a ‘pocket,’ twenty-six feet in the ground, and took out in pure gold 1,113 pennyweights. A penuyweight is about nivety-six_cefitigso- there were found iu less than six neurs over $1,100 in gold. During this avork he took out one pan of dirt in which there were $150 in gold) The largest piece of gold found weighed forty-nine penuy weights and numbers were fonnd weighing from teu to twenty pennyweights. If the mine hold out like this, aud it is not unreas- onable to suppose thatit will, it is worth an immense amount of money. The above statement we get from Mr. Alston, and we know it 38 true, for there is no more reliable gerntiewan to be found. But, while felling the good part, we must not omit something else. Mr. Irwin, who lives in a hoase to himself, had the same broken open a few days atte: wards, during his absence at the mine, and vearly all he had stolen— among other things, the gold he had found, ove twenty dollar gold piece, sev- eral two and a half dollar gold pieces and ether things. It is supposed that the thief or thieves, as they knew nothing about the gold, the finding having been kept quiet, entered the building only for the purpose of petty pilfering, but after getter in, found and carried off more than they expected. Mr. Alston offers a most liberal reward, we think ove half of the amount stolen, but are not posi- tive, for the recovery of the movey. As it is mostly crude, uncoined gold, it would seem that the thief, if he ever of- fers to sell it, might easily be detected. As we have before stated, the above is beyond question true, and we hope and believe that the mine will be so worked as to yield much money to its owner.— Warrenton Gazette. -——_—_ qa —— ow A Relic of Peecahontas. [From Bilt Nye’s Boomerang. ] The editor of this paper who has made the study of the Indian character a life work, has in his possession a letter writ- tea by the well-known Pocahontas to her father, and published it below for the ben- efit of his readers.

All the biddeu in- : fluences of the wearer tend toward re- spectability. He who wears one is oblig- ‘ed to keep the rest of his body in trim, head and body. He is apt to become thoughtful through the necessity of watch- ing the sky whenever he goes out. The chances are that he will buy an umbrella which is another guaranty for good be- havior, and the care of hat and umbrella —perpetual and exucting it must be— adds to the sweetness of his character. The man who wears a plug hat takes nat- urally to the society of Women, with all its elevating tendeucies. He canvot go hunting or fishiug without abandouing his beloved hat, but in the modern en- joey ment of croquet aud lawn tennis he can sport his beaver with impunity. In other worde, the constant use of a plug lat makes a man composed iu inanuer, quiet and gentlemanly in conduct, aud the companion of ladies. The ivevitable results is prosperity, marriage and church membership. — When a hen sits op an empty china egg, you call it blind instinct.

Gold Fields of the Southern States. “From the geological reports of Georgia, I find thas there are 180 prominent streams in the gold belt of that State, that furnish in the aggre- gate 26,000 cubic feet of water per second, the capacity of each stteam varying from two cubic feet ‘upward as high as 3,000 feet per second. This amount of water would give, with an assumed head of 100 feet, 285,640 theoretical horse-power or 190,426 available horse power. Again, 26,900 cubic feet per second would be equiv- alent to 1,500,000 cubic feet per min- ute, and this volume of water confin- ed in a ditch would supply about 700,000 miners’ inches. . “North Carolina and “Alabama ate not behind Georgia in the supply of water, and the most of this vast pow- er is running unused in the sea. Prof. Kerr, State geologist of North Caro- lina, has given in his report a full and interesting description of the valuable streams of his State, and in some in- stances gives the estimated water pow- ers. It would be interesting to’ read this report in conuection with this article. “Custom mills should be built at intervals thoughout the region, and this water utilized for not only wash- ing down and concentrating the ore, but also trausporting it if possible, to the mill ready for crushing and amal- gamating Upoa actual experiment in Georgia, it has been found that by such treatment ore cau be prefitably handled that yields but seventy-five cents per ton. Last year the mana- _ger of the Fiidley informed me that where the ore could be reached by the water, le had succeeded in mining and crushing at a cost of but twenty- eight cents per ton. This was the case, however, where the water was made not ouly the mining but the transporting agent as well,” We extract the above from a paper read by P. H. Mell, Jr., of Alabama, before the American Institute of Min- ing Engineers, as worthy of notice by those seeking Gpportunities for min- lng culerprises, From same paper we also extract the followieg : “Vhose who have bad the opportu- nity of exploring the region mention- ed above, will readily recall to mind numerous localities to which their at- tention was directed by would-be miners, as rich and desirable proper- ties, in which there were but few quartz scams running in every direc- tion through fine grained talcose slate. Most of thegold in such formatious was always found disseminated thro’ the slate and but a small per centage in the quartz. Such are the deposits I propose to discuss in this paper. “Ot course, there are many excel- lent quartz wines in the South that are paying the owners good profits, and many more to my knowledge that are not being worked for obvious rea- sons. But it is out of the question to suppose that these slate deposits can be practically worked by the same methods adopted for extracting the’ore from well defined and pominent quartz veins. Itis true that iu many iustances these slate formations are quite rich in gold, but this is not unitormally the case, and as there is no chance of sorting the ore, handling so much crude and dead stuff in) the ordinary way of mining and milling would be ruinous. “Tt has been my privilege to cxam- ine quite a large number of these for- mations in the South and as a general thing they were found so thoroughly decomposed as to render it not at all difficult to spade the slate, and pulver- ize the whole mass between the fin- gers, These formations are sometimes several hundred feet in width, extend- ing to unknown depth, and varying in length from a few hundred feet to several miles. In fact in every re- spect, except as to composition and location, they bear 4 striking resem- bianee to the ordinary gravel deposit. “Now, why cannot these slate for- mations be worked by water, scme- what in the way as ore is concen- trated in gravel beds? This plan has, in part, been adopted by N. H. Hand & Co., in working a property located near the Pigeon Roost region, Lumpkin county, Georgia, The idea seems to have suggested itself to these euterprising men trom the surround- ing circumstances. It is well known that fur a number of years this com- pany have supplied their mine with water from a well-constructed ditch over twenty-six miles in length, and by means of this ready agent they have successfully worked the slate vein mentioned above. Before N. H. Hand & Co. took possession, the pro- perty was very thoroughly tested by the old plan of driving shafts and ex- tracting the ore by means of pick and shovel. Wery extensive and elabo- rate machinery Was en:ployed but without success, and the property was eventuaily abandoned with consider- able loss to the company. When the present owners, therefore, took pos- sessession, the past history of the mine contained by little to encourage ‘thew in the prosecution of the enter- prise. There was no regularly defir. ———— ed vein of quartz, but simply a I mass of one rained i ans throughout the length and breadth of which i pannings of gold were obtained, A twenty-fiye stamp bat- tery, run by water, was-erected one- half mile from the mine, at the lowest point accessible. On a hill in the neighborhood of the mine a large rerse- voir was supplied with water from the ditch above mentioned, and by means ofa little giant, in connection with the reservoir, playing under a pressure of 150 feet head, the vein of decompos- ed slate and quartz was driven through rifled boxes towards the mill.” . 0p er Mr. Vennor’s Second Guess at _ July. Mr. Henry G. Vennor, in a letter to a + hewspaper in Ottuwa, Canada, of the 23d iustapt, says: “I believe that the present summer is one in a triad of simi- lar summers, probably the middle one. It is likely to resemble that of 1880, and to differ in some of its minor details. The approaching month of July will give a great deal of rain, as in 1880, over a large portion of the United States and Canada, while in Great Brittain the weather will in all probability be like- wise stormy and wet. The storms of wind, thunder and lightning are likely to be severe and frequent. The heaviest rains for New York and vicinity would locate after the 20th, aud probably on 2lst or 22d dates; between the 10th and 15th days an exceedingly hot term is likely to be experienced in both the Uni- ted States and Cauada. Within a few days from the close of the month, proba- bly about the 27th or 28th, a cool wave will oceur, carrying frosts in Canada and cool weather generally, with storms of wind and rain throurghout the United States. Where storms have been severe- ly felt in the Western and Southwestern States during June, there also will the severe storms of July be experienced. Notwithstanding the frequent and severe storms during the month, frequent alter- nations of fine hot weather will counter- act to a great extent the damage done to crops in general in the West. The en- trance of July in Canada, and also to a considerable extent in the United States, will be cool aud showery, and the present look out for the fourth is not a very promising one.” le ne The Tobacco Crop. Census cffice returns published last week disclose the fact that the tobacco crop is much better per acre in Northern thanin the Southern States. Thus in pounds per acre: Kentucky yields 6 Virginia yields 3 Pennsylvania yields Ohio vields Tennessee yields North Carolina yields Maryland yields Connecticut yields Missouri yields Wisconsin yields ludiana yields New York yields Massachusette yields Illinois yields West Virginia yields 1,620 1,234 742 1,327 1,589 699 564 The average in the Northern States is 1,150 pounds per acre, while at the South the average per acre is stated to be about 600 pounds. In other words, the North grows two pounds per acre to our one. These are the census figures, but how re- liable they are ‘we cavnot determine. Our plants are probably not so large and the texture not so heavy, but then, ex- cept in certain cases, our tobacco is fiver, of a better flavor and commands a better price. This census showing, however, is remerkable, and will doubtless attract attention at the South. Is it true that the average yield in this State is only 47] pounds per acre? We think there must be some mistake, for the census put the production in the State at about 27,000,000 pounds, where- as Col. Cameron, after a careful examina- tion, arrived at the conclusion that we produced last year about 50,000,000 pounds. Let us have a little more light on the subject.—News & Observer. — A Whiskey Wreck.

An exchange from Cuthbert says: “Many of our people are redu- ced to straits just now that they have not known for years. We might re- late many circumstances (bat have come to our knowledge that would awake the livetiest sympathies of our readers. There are people in our county who have not had a mouthfal of meat for two days. [Terrible! But there are millions of people in Ireland and onthe Continent, who do not taste meat once a month.] Some that have not had bread for that time.

The managers of the West- ern N.C. Railroad are pushing forward the work of construction as rapidly as possible. They recently asked for an ex tention of time on the Paint Rock branch, but if men and money can complete the work according to the terms of the sale it will be done. Crowds of the mountain people have been roused by the whistle of the locomotives below Asheville, and come in flocks to see the trains. The French Broad region has long been known and cclebrated for its grand natural scen- ery, but uow must be superadded railroad trains flitting along the banks of this crystal river, first on oue side and then on the other, as if playing hide-and-seek amid the rocks and flowering shrubs which fringe its sparkling waters. Addi- tional life and animation will also be given to the scene by a gay little steamer soon to be launched upon its waters to ply between points suited to navagation. What an invasion of the domains of} hitherto silent, solemn grandure, is here. Will the sprites of the mountains receive it with joy or with sorrow? Will they stir up the ancient fires of their slumber- ing volcauo and answer the echoing whis- tle with a quaking earth, or will they summon from their crags the soaring ea- gles to scream a welcome from the hea- vyens? What else cau answer? Their antlered stags will lift their muzzles in the air and fly away to less frequented haunts. The amazed black bear and the timid wolf will steal aray to dark un- fathomed caves and uo cheer or remon- strance bring, while poets, school girls and boys with locks divided in the mid- dle, will look, and wonder, and scribble, and sigh, or sing—not of human arts so much as of glorious nature and her more glorious author, for it is but a step from Nature to Nature’s God. <=> VOTING AWAY YOUR LIBERTY One of the pleas of the anti-prohibi- tion or liquor party is, that they will not vote away their liberty, Certainly a man ought not to manacle himself, and so be- come disqualified for self-protection and, the ability to take care of his family and be useful tothe State and to the com- munity iu which he lives. But giving up a privilege voluntarily for the sake of the public good; giving up the privilege of drinking whiskey because you believe it will beneflt the State aud save the lives, and souls of others, is not such voting away of a man’s liberty as to disqualify him for usefulness. Men are required to give up personal rights and privileges for the sake of the public good in many cases in this life. They cannot en- joy the privileges of organized society without giving up some of tueir liberty. They mays'uot violate the Sabbath because it isa bad oxample; they may not be bois- terous at places of public worship because it disturbs others; they are required to submit to laws, which often they are unwilling to do, because the public good demands it; they may not turn outa dangerous ball or other animal which may do ivjury to their neighbors. It would be delighffal (forthe stock) to let cows and pigs run out to graze in the open fields of the neighborhood; had not all agreed to give up the privilege and now the law forbids it. It would be a money making business to sell lottery tickets, and to cheat, and steal, and swindle. But for the good of society men are re- quired to absain from these things, be- cause no one mast have the right to do things which may injure others. Drink- ing whiskey is not alone hurtful to the mag himself, but every day it is hurtful to others; to wife and children, father and mother, brother and sister, and the public generally. To give it up there- fore is only denying one’s self a danger- ous privilege for the sake of society, friends and kindred. A man may vote away his right todo evil that good may eome ; nay, he may give up some lawful things, but he may not practice an indal- gence which endangers and damages others besides himself, Therefore, to vote against whiskey is not voting away your liberty; but it is voting for the pro tection of yourself and others agajnst an evil which is constanly destroying wen and wumey anil harrying them into dis- honored graves, filling the land with poverty and crime, and taxing and troub- ling the sober and industrious people of society to repair the injuries which the yse of it always inflicts, eer THE ASSASSINATION Of President Garfield fell upon the coun- try like a thunder-bolt from a cloudless sky. A more startling surprise could not bave happened if the earth had suddenly opened and swallowed up Washington City with all of itgthousands of inhabi- tants. This feeling was quickly followed by one of horror and indignation ut the crime and its perpetrator. And then, as it was found that the work of the assassin had not resulted in sudden death, anxie- ty for the recovery of the wounded Presi- dent succeeded to these, and up to the present writing the all-absorbing subject is in regard to the condition of the suf- ferer and the chances for his recovery. Such was the effect of this horrible news upon the inhabitants of Salisbury, and such its effect from one extreme of the country to the other. Our telegraph sys- tem is to the country what the nerves are to the human body. An incident of start- ling nature is almost instantly and simul- taneously flashed not only all over the entire country, but crossing the ocean on five or six lines is as quickly known throughout Europe as here. Such was the case in this instance. The report of Guiteau’s pistols had scarcely ceased to ring in the ears of the immediate by- standers before the people of the whole country raised their hands in’ surprise and horror at the deed. Messages of sympathy returned over the wires, aud they continue to pour in from the south, the west, the east and the north and from the States of Europe. To the praise of the people we are glad to record that al- most every town in our own country has expressed its horror at the crime and sympathy for the sufferer and his afilicted family. We note it as a most gratifying fact that all political differences have been sunk out of sight by the blow aim- ed at the President of this great country and men have rarely shown any disposi- tion to reflect on either the hidden de- sigus of Providence in it, or the causes which may have conspired in the produc- tion of this national humilitiou and shame. te Graphic Account of the Shooting ef President Garfield. As the President, accompanied by Sec- retary Blaine, was entering the depot of the Baltimore and Potomac [ailroad at Washington Saturday morning to take the train for Long Branch, he was shot twice by a man named Charles Jules Guiteau, who had been lying in wait for him. This occured at 9:20 a. m. The first ball from the assassiu’s revolver struck the President near the left shoul- der and passed out by the shoulder blade; the second struck himin the back over the left kidney. The President turned jat the first shot and fell forward on his knees at reciving the second bullet. to his assistance. stantly overpowered and arrested. Th® President was carried toa room on the floor above, medical aid was summoned and stimulants administered. The great strong man thus basely stricken down soon rallied from the shock and was borne in an ambulance to the White House, where efforts were made toascer- tain the nature of the wounds. The gravest fears were entertained. The pa- tient remained conscious, conversed cheerfa.ly and hopefully, but his pulse ; was high, he was suffering some pain and internal hemorrhage was believed to be taking place. Morphine was hypodermi- cally injected and he became easicr. AT THE DEPOT. The first shot not being noticed by the President or his companion, the second and the fatal one found Mr Blaine on the sill of the door, who instantly called for help. Itis believed that the second shot was intended for Secretary Blaine. Gui- teau wanted to be consul at Paris. Last fall he bored Blaine with simple-minded letters proposivg to take the stump in Maine, and was not regarded as a useful man in the campaign. He has been stop- ping at the Riggs House, and has shown no peculiarities during his stay to lead to the belief that he is of unsound mind Secretary Blaine’s private secretary says from what he knows of the persistent ap- peals of Guiteau that he must have in- tended to shoot Blaine. The second shot gave him a very narrow escape. Col. Jameson, who was to have had charge of the President’s party was the first to communicate tiie sad news to the cabinet officers. From the scene to the rear of the train was a distance of per- haps 200 feet. As though drawn by an invisible power the presidential party in a second was surging toward the room where the prostrate term of the President lay. Five members of the cabinet were then present, Messrs. Blaine, Windom, Lincoln, Hunt and James. In a few min’ utes Attorney-General MacVeagh, who was at his office when the deed was done had arrived. The Presideut’s son Harry scarcely realizing what had happened, for but little blood fell from the wounds, stood ready to fight or die in his father’s defense. The scene beggars description. A beautiful summer morn, warm and tranquil as the face of nature in early spring, encouraged the brightest thoughts and happiest feeling in the hearts of the company that was to journey with the President. Now their conntenances were black with sorrow. ‘President Garfield assas- sinated,” exclaimed Secretary Hunt.— “Impossible.” No, if a meteoric stone had singled him out as its vitim it could not ke more improbable. Secretary Lin- coln realized in an instant his position. The sen of an assassinated President and the Secretary of War of another victim by the assasain’s band, he quickly gave the order for the troops stationed at the jarsenal to hold thenselves for immediate | ' Postmaster-General James and others of his party who had preceded him rushett} The assassin was ni® order. The sameavas dove by the Sec- retary of the Navy, who directed that the warines should be held for similar orders, Meanwhile word was sent to Surgeon General Barnes, Drs. Norris, Lincoln and Woodward, requiring their immediate presence at the dépot. With the messen— gers trooping over the pavements it was not long before every part of Washington was informed of what had happened, and the fact became generally known. Then a crowd soon assembled, and in less than ten minutes Sixth street and B street were packed with people, and the news of the horrible affair flew from mouth to mouth and spread over the city like wild- fire. An attempt was made to rush into the building and cries were raise to lynch the assassin, but a strong force of police- men, summoned by telephone, had arriv- ed promptly on the scene and preserved order. In the meantime the Piesident bad been carried to a room up stairs and the physicians summoned. Subsequent- ly he was conveyed to the White House, as stated above. ee CAUSE oF 1T.—The crime of shooting the President iu considered as a result of the fierce war made upon him by the “stalwarts,” Conkling, Grancand Arthur. These being so bitter against him, Gui- teau thought he ought to die, aud that he could not doa more patriotic deed than to killhim. And now the question is, shall the ‘‘stalwarts” profit by the crimi- nal delusion of oneof their members, ‘‘a stalwart of the stalwarts.” oo The President thinks he will recover ; so alsu does his wife. His physicians are pleased to announce many favorable sym- toms, but do not predict the final result. Itisbelicved the ball is lodged in the right lobe of the liver. The sufferer is cheerful and calm, takes food and drink aud his stomach assimulates it. Tue Latest accounts from the Presi- dent are favorable. Ue continues to im- prove. His appetite craves more than his physicians allow him. <> Tre President and his cabinet and per- sonal friends have been specially touched by the number and warmth of the tele- grams which have been sent to him from the South. We are glad to note a public ackuowledgment of this kiud in the pa- pers. ee FOURTH OF JULY. This day which should have been teeming with joyous memories, recited in glowing words by proud orators in al- most every county of this great aud grow- ing country, and celebrated with hearts swelliug with patriotic feelings by pro- cessions, civil and military, with banners and mottos, musie and the booming can- non, was destined to be marred by anxi- eus concern for the life of the President, and by those bitter feelings which spring in fierce resentment at the act of the cowardly assassin. That the festivities , of the national birth day should be thus marred is ay event the more to be deplor- ed the more it is considered. Had the diabolical deed proceeded from purely aud his victim it had been a matter of less significance, though even in that case the shock to fifty millious of people could scarcely have been less. The President of the Unfted States is presumably an exemplary man, and therefore not liable to the casualties which wait tpon one guilty of crimes, public or private. That he should be struck down in a public re by the pistol of the assassin as an outrager of private rights would have been bad enough in all conscience, asa subject of shame aud mortification to the citizen, palliated, it is true, by that righteous judgment which always assents to the legitimacy of just consequences which overtake the v.rong docr. Buts this was not the case in the ptesent justauee, go fur as the facts yet given go to show. The assassin had no just personal grievance against Mr. Garfield. The blow was not therefore only designed to take the life ofa man. It was aimed at the United States Government, and the desiga was to accomplish political results. Aud has it come to this that the supreme Execu- tive of this great country is to be summa- rily disposed of by partisans whenever he fails to come up to the standnrd aud requirements of dissenting parties. Who then can be President? There are always two or more parties in this couptry and always will be. It cannot be otherwise, for it is impossible to avoid differences of opinion, wldch is the foundation on which parties stand. Shall parties appeal to violence for the accomplishment of party ends? It is resistence to the powers that be. It isan attempt of forcible revolution, which is rebellion and war. The assas- sination of President Gartield, if deliber- ately designed for political ends, may be, Hthe beginning but not the end of a strife fearful to contemplate. In this view of the subject, although the natural sun in the heayens is shedding down upon our country its cheering beams of light and life on this her 105th birthday of inde- pendence, they cannot dispel the gloom which is now oppressing the hearts and miuds of the people in consequence of this untoward event. It is bad enough to see the assassin at his devilish work against the kings who rule on the old and totter- ing throves of Europe, but that the peo- ple’s own expressly chosen head in this young Republic should thus perish, may well startle the people from their dream of fancied security and bappiness. —> <>< North Carolina State Fair comes this year on the 10th of October.

The chlorination house—two stories— has four large chlorinators. The gold is extracted by what is known as ‘Méars chlorination Process,” or chlorine gas un- der high pressure. This process has been frequently explained and it is presumed that the public has a general idea of its mode. The engine house contains a 10 and an 80 horse engine, aud three boilers of 200 horse power. In the shaft houses are two steam hoists and a Rand compresser. They use in the water shaft a large hy- draulic pump, besides which they bave two Knowles’ pumps, Nos.1 and 3. They also have four Rand drills, worked by compressed air—they are very desirable as they drill a foot in about®0 minutes. A brick yard, saw mill and five black- smniths complete the outfit. They employ about ove hundred and thirty hands. The work is progressing rapidly and satisfactorily with flattering prospects. About 300 tons of ore is in sight and the ample facilities fur Loisting is daily adding te the heaps. Up to the time this Phenix Gold Com- pany took hold, which was less than a year since, $960,000 had been taken out. This estimate is made by Capt. W. H. Orchard, who formally superintended the ming. SO EE SPREE I PEPE OED War on Docs.—Our Town Commis- ioncrs, at their meeting on the Ist of July, declared open and uncompromising war on dogs running in the steets with- out collars. It is to be a war of the black flag. They will ask no quarters and show none. T.H. Vanderford, T. T. C., fulminates the Decree of the Board, and will also take a hand in its execution, we suppose. It is unfortunate for the dogs that they are not a reading elass of our population, and are liable to be surprised and taken at a disadvantage by these proceedings. It is true they have never been known to wear fire arms or other deadly weapons, but if informed of the bloody decree published against them, they might stand on the defensive or to strategy when the dreaded oceasion shall arise. 1f is presumed the owners of dogs will accept the waruing given, and comply with the requirements of the Jaw, otherwise some may deplore their neglect without the power to restore a pet. resort O The 4th was celebrated here in a quiet manner.

Thirteen companies owning mines} npon the Comstock lode, of Storey county Nevada, have paid to their shareholders nearly $120,000,000 in dividends, of which sum the Colsoli- dated Firg'nia and the California furnished $74,340,000 — some‘ hing more than one-half. It were 1mpossi- ble to enumerate or over estimate the beneficial influences which have resul- ted to our epoch from this great contri- bution to the money resources of the world, from a quarter of the earth otherwise so barren of products which man may to his use and profit. But besides this immense sum total of di- vidends, the production of these same mines have amounted to more than double the dividends; and this great sum has given vivification to so many people, and to so many industries, 50 opportunely as tual most seem the work of a bountiful Providence watching over our country. Indeed, the periods at which these mines have severally proved bonanzs, serve all the more to give their discovery and production n Providential aspect ; as for exam- ple, the Crown Point, with its filty dividends, up to January, 1875, ag: sregating $11,588,000, which came toan end just as the Consolidated Virginia began to pay monthly divi- dends of $1,080,000, or paid an ag- yregate of dividends for 1875, $11,- 448,000. By these results, the mate- rial progress of the Pacific Coast and of the whole intermediate region west of the State of Missousi, has unques- tionably been advanced many years ahead of what must have happened, had the treasures of Mt. Davidson not existed, or had they escaped dis- covery. All that wonderful iudustry which has grown up in connection with the silver minesin Nevada, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico, Montana, Idaho aod Colorado, but for the im- vetus given to it by the Crown Point bonnes would never have been boro. It was that bonanza which led to thesinking of the Consolidated Virginia shaft 1200 feet before find- ing any ore. Without the Comstock Jude, and the consequent extension and expansion of the mining industry and productiovof the country with every month, in Utah, the Black Hills, Mon- tana, Idaho, Arizonaand New Mexico, as well as Nevada and California, the resumption of spccie payment in the country must have been an affair of the remote future. Upon this point there is no room for rational doubt.— N.Y. Mining Record. —_—— es Capital Punishment. The change of public sentiment in regard to capital punishment within a century has been remarkable. One hundred years ago scarcely a Monday morning passed in England on which one or more poor wretches were not hanged, too often for trifling offenses, There were more than 200 capital crimes in thestatute book. Now, only murder and treason are punishable with death. In our own country there has latterly been a reaction against the extreme humanitarianism which jue every murder enough to save sis neck, but, as a whole, the indis- position to hang is increasing. The London Howard Association, which opposes capital punishment, publishes statistics which show that, during the ten years between 1870 und 1879, inclusive, only 16 persons were executed out of 600 condemned to death in Austria, 93 out of 198 in France, 126 ont of 281 in Spain, 6 out of 46 in Sweden and Norway, 1 out of 94 in Denmark, 7 out of 249 iu Bavaria, and only 1 out of 484 in North Germany. Inthe United States during the same period there have been about 2,500 convictions for mur- sler; and only about 200 executions, half of which were applications of “lynch law.” In Australia and New Zealand 453 persons have been con- demned to death, and only 130 exes euted. In England and Wales 2,005 persons have been tried for murder during the thirty years between 1850 and 1879, and of this number 665, or 33 per cent., executed. abolished capitol punishment in 1870, | and there have been only 17 murders since, against 19 during the previous ten years. Capital punishment is vir- tually abolished in Portugal, Rouma- pia, and Belgium, and in this coun- { ‘ | i The use of Lemons. The lemon tree is a native of Asia, althongh it is cultivated in Italy, Portugal and in the south of France. In Europe, however, it seldom ex- ceeds the dimensions of the smallest tree, while in its native state it grows to over sixty feet in height. Every part of this tree is valuable in medi- cine, though we rarely employ any bot its fruit, that is, the lemon itself. And every one knows how to employ this in lemonade—to squeeze the juice in cold. water; this is the shortest way—or to cut into thin slices and then boil it. Either way is good. Lemonade is one of the best and safest drinks for any person, whether in health or not. It is suitable to ail stomach diseases, is excellent in sick- ness—in cases of jaundice, gravel and liver complaints. The pipins crushed may also be mixed with water and sugar, and be used asa drink. Lem- on jnice is the best scorbutic remedy known. It not only cures this dis- ease, but prevents it. Sailors make a daily use of it for that purpose. I ad- vise every one to rub their gums daily with lemon juice to keep them in health. The hands and nails are also kept clean, white, eoft and suple by the daily use of lemon instead of scap. Italso prevente chilblains. Lem- on is used in sickness for intermittent fevers, mixed with strong, hot, black coffee without sugar. Neuralgia may be cured by rubbing the part affected with a cut lemon It is valuable alse to cure warts, and to destroy dandruff on the head by rubbing the roots of the hair with it. In fact, its uses are manifold, and the more weemploy it, externally and internally, the better weshall find ourselves. Natural reme- dies are tlie best, and nature is our best doctor, if we would listen -to it. Decidedly, rub your bands, head and gums with lemous, and drink lemon- ade in preference to all other liquids, __—__ _ ~<a - ASHEVILLE SuRGERY NoT Bre- HIND THE AGE.—As much interest has been shown by the public in the case of William Gorman, from whom Doctor Percy Noreop removed the lower jaw for disease which must have proved fatal in a few weeks, that we give a few particulars of this remark- able surgical feat, in addition to the mention we made of it last week. The operation was performed on Wedne-day last with success. On Thursday afternoon the patients con- dition being rather low, Dr, Norcop obtained from two colored men twelve ounces of blood which was passed in- to the veins of the patient. This master piece of work revived him greatly. On Friday the same pro- eess was adopted with equally good results. The patient is now doing well, breathing calmly through the silver tube inserted in his windpipe, and swallowing his fuod through the tubes passed into the stomach. We hope soon to see him, with his new rubber jaw at work, promenading the streets.— Asheville Citizen. Mrs. Merritt, of Detroit complains of her husband in a divorce suit, al- eging, among other things, that he would not let her put her cold feet on him to warm them. ————_—__ ____———>-> > oe The Prohibition Act. The following is the Prohibitory Actas it passed both Houses of the Legislature, with all the amendments inserted at the proper places.

Mr. HALE, formerly editor of the well toa well balanced and observing mind, may now be said to have added the stored wisdom of years of experience, but who yet writes with a clearness aud beauty of peculiar grace, sends to the Charlotte Democrat the following : I have hesitated whether to write any- thing about the horrible event of last Sat- urday, not because I do not feel. and feel, profoundly, the violation of all personal and public rights involved, but because your readers, and all the world, will know all about it before 1 could reach them. But on my way to church yester- day I was thinking and speaking of the mania for office, growing outof ‘the spoils doctrine,” as the prime cause of the outrage; and the minister, Rev. Dr. Potter, in an admirable address on the necessity of guvernment-— family, church, and State governmert—advanced the same idea, and expressed the belief that if we cannot cradicate this abominable and demoralizing doctrine, that “to the victors belong the spoils of office,” the country is dvomed! I thought I fore- saw some of the sad effects, when, just fifty years ago, the Fayetteville Observer cut loose from the idol of the day, Presi- dent Jackson, because he had adopted and was acting on this bad principle. It required no small degree of moral cour- age to quit the party of the great idol, whom I had helped to elevate, for the prospect was that the Observer could not exist in the midst of a people so devoted to thatidol. I have ever since looked back upon that period asthe most eventful one in my Editorial life. Not only was, it a decision to do what was right, but it was the foundation of reputation and fortane. The people agreed with me, and sustained me ever after. I mention this as an encouragement to young men never to flinch from the performauce of duts-for fear of loss of poplarity or patron- age. Yes, I believe that the dreadful deter- the kind of late years putin office, and the conse- quent corruption, and fraud, and stealing, | have all resulted from this vile spoils in men who are of doctrine, which justifies such villians as ever come toan end? Shall weeveragain | have a party and man in power who will | dure tu discard it and allow all to remain in office who faithfully discharge their So deeply bas it taken root in the public mind and heart, that it would seem impossible to pluck it out. But it must be done, or, as Dr. Potter said, the country is doomed! Individually I never asked for office, and never would have it when it could have been had without the asking. This may by many of the present generation, but to me itis amatter of satisfaction in old age. ee ee A GREAT NEW RATE-ROAD. | One word more. not scem wise A conversation, the other day, with that accomplished gentleman Capt. Win. Cain, C. E., developed some facts se in- teresting in thejr nature, that we lay them before our readers. The Tinsalia near Bristol, Teunessee, and of which Gen. J. D. Imboden, is Attorney and | Agent, is desirous of reaching an oatlet | on the Atlantic Coast for its enormous products, and with that view has in pro- Road, extending from Cincinnati, Ohio, through the Big Stone Gap of the Cuin- berland Mountains, via Bristol and Eliza- bethtown, Tennessee, through the Blue Ride at Cook's Gap, to Boone, in Watau- Lenoir, Taylorsville and Statesville to Salisbury, wheuce the line will probably be extended to Wadesboro. The road is now uuder constrnetion from Big Stone Gap to Bristol, where it will con- nect with several other lines, and a sur- veying party is now onthe Road from the Gap to Cincinnati, and another from party from Elizabethtown in this direc— tion towards Salisbury, Wadesboro and Wilmington. A perfectly feasible route has been found through the Cumberland mountains at Big Stone Gap, and through the Blue Ridge at Cooks Gap, and Capt. Cain has madea horseback reconnoisance of the line from Lenoir to Salisbury, and makes a highly favorable report of its practicability. Gen. Imbeden, we learn, is very much impressed with the Salisbury route, and will warmly urge its adoption by the Board of Directors, and it. will prebably be put under accurate survey within the next moth. All this sounds’ almost too less. The Tinsalia Coal & Iron Co., is abun- outlet here indicated. We need not say that this Road will meet with the hearty Whole line, and that so far as Rowan and be willing to extend every moral and material aid in their power to insure its lina. It would open ap to the world the magnificent northwestern mountain sec- tion of North Carolina. It would make & great thoroughfare from the Northwest to the Atlantic.

Tue Ticket.— Tie Sheriff of the coun- ty, Mr. Krider, in issuing bie notice for the election on the 4th of Augast says :— *¢An election will be held at all the elec- tion precints of Rowan county by the qualified voters of said county, on the prohibition of “The Manufacture and Sale of Spirituous’and Malt Liquors. All those electors who desire to vote for pro- hibition, shall vote a printed or written ticket with the words ‘For: Prohibition,’ on it. Those opposed to prohibition shall vote a printed or written ticket with the words ‘Against Prohibition,’ on it.” It will be observed that this is an ex- tract from the 7th section of the Probibi- tion Act, passed at the last session of the Legislature. The election in August is not for the purpose of taking the sense of the electors on the Act referred to, but on the question of Prohibition. Those, therefore, who are in favor of Prohibition, but not pleased with the Act itself, need not fear but that it will be amended and made as perfect as human wisdom can devise. Those opposed to Prohibition per se will of course vote *‘Against Pro- hibition.” TT SO Mr. AND Mrs. GARFIELD’s EXPRESSION oF GRaTITUDE.—The Secretary of State furnishes the following, with a request that it be given the widest possible cir- culation: ; ‘i EXECUTIVE MANSION, WasninGTon, July 4—ll p.m. To the Press: On behalf of the President and Mrs. Garfield, I desire to make public acknowl- edgewent of the very numerous messages of condolence aud affection which have been received since Saturday morning. From almost every State in the Union, from the South as bouutifally as from the North, and from countries beyond the sea, have come messages of anxious in- quiry and tender sympathy in such num- bers that it has been found impossible to answer themin detail.

He should be expelled for cause. We cannot hope for purity in elections until a thorough change is accomplished this direction. ED OSD oe er Tue ATLANTA CoTTON Exposition.~The Disector General has issved a circular in respect to charges, as follows: I have the plestsure of announcing that the financial success of this great inter pational enterprise is assured beyond a doubt by the liberal subscriptions that have been made to its stock, by the large number of actual entries already made, and by the certainty of an immense throng of visitors. On my return from an extensive trip through the North and West, these facts were laid before the Executive Committee at its regular meet- ing, held June 28th, when it was unani- mously voted to rescind that part of the rule relating to exhibits which required payment for every square foot of floor oc- cupied, and to make the entry fee of $25 the only charge against them.

Charlotte Observer. Yesterday afternoon, about half-past 2 oclock, in advance of a refreshing rain which visited the city, a high wind sad- denly swept through the streets, raising the dust ip clouds, slamming house doors and breaking glass out of windows in several places. The hurricane seemed to be an advance courier of a more violent storm which it had preceded. This impression was confirmed later in the afternvon when news reached the city over the wires of its devastationgin other places. Ip Spartanburg, 8. C., the storm was particularty severe, being accompanied with vivid flashes of lightning, one of which struck a dwellipg in which were five people, two of whom, a Mrs. Revan and daughter, were killed instantly, and the other three severely injured. Mr. Revan who bore the relation of husband and father of the two who were killed, Was in another portion of the town and was also injured by the lightning. At Jolinstons station on the Charlotte, Columbia & Augusta Railroad, two box cars were blown from the track. At Chester several houses were unroof- ed and anew building, just erected by Mr. PF. W. Atirens, of this city, for a gen- tleman in that town, was entirely de- stroyed, it is understood. At Morrow's Turnout, houses were un- roofed and chiuueys and trees were blown down. ; : The storm seems to have been very general and to have prevailed over a wide extent of territory. The damage cannot be estimated until the reperts are iv fuller, SSO cere ee Not Partep ry Deatu.—Ann Arbor, July 4.—Fred Graves and Miss Mary Murbey, living near Ypsilanti, who were spending the day with Miss Clara Hayley were Qrowned this evening in the river, just below Witmore Lake road bridge. The boat capsized, but Miss Hayley clung to it and when nearly exhausted was res- cued aud helped ashore by two men pass- ing by. The bodies had not beeu recov- ered at 9 o'clock. The people who were drowned were aged about 22 and 19 years respectively, and were engaged to be married. ae Rowan County Teachers’ Associ- ation--Regular Monthly Bleeting, The Association eonvened at the usual hour on the JIth inst., President Mur- dock in the chair. Two new members were elected to, active membership. The Ist topic, “The most practicable tiie for conducting our Publie Schools,” was opened by the leader, J. F. Moser, followed by a general discussion by most of the members. During the discussion, Prof. Ricl’d Sterling, Supt. Publie Schools in Davie county, evtered the meeting. On motion the association returned to the election of new members, when Professor Sterling was unanimously elected to hon- orary membership, and invited to take an active part in the proceedings of the meeting. ‘The discussion was continued by Prot. Sterling and G. R. McNeill. J. L. Graber, Esq., was present and ou in- vitation took part in the discussion, giv— ing sums valuable suggestions on the topic. At the close.of the discussion, the majority of opinion seemed to be in favor of commencing the Pubic School about the Ist of November, continuing until the Ist of March. Hon. J. C. Searboro, State Supt. Pub- lic Schools, was reported to be in the city. On motion a committee of three was ap- pointed to call upon the gentleman and Invite him to attend aud address the as— sociation after noon recess. The meeting then adjourned until 1:30 p.m. After recess the members reassembled. The 2d topic, “Our individual duty to the destitute,” was opened and discussed by the leader, R. M. Davis. Hon. J. C.

For example, Mr. Hamilton, of Shreveport, La., said he found cotton seed meal searcely inferior to guano as a fertilizer and invaluable as a food for cattle. In exchanging meal for seed one ton of the tons of the Jatter. Another member had demonstrated, by actual experiment on a farm in Connecticut, that the meal is the best fertilizer ever used on tobacco lands, trippling their productive capacity in three years; and is superior to any other cattle food. Again, Mr. Baber, of Selma, claimed to have inereased, by the use of cotton seed meal, the production on poor lands of 18 bales to 145 bales. In fact, there was unanimous testimony to the value of the cotton meal and cake, not only for feeding cattle, but as a fertilizer. In the quality of a feed stuff, it is being used in gredt Britian, Sweden, Norway and to some extent in Russia. ee eae Take “‘BLACK-DRAUGHT” and you will never be bilious. At Theo. F. Kluttz’s.

The Daily Stock Report of July 7th, takes occasion to slander the Crowell, either through mahce or through igno- trance. ‘The Crowell company are em- barrassed with every thing except gold” —to this we would suggest in reply, that the company meet promptly | their en- gagements in this State. We saw a few days since a certificate from the Register of deeds of Stanly County, certifying that no claims were recorded against the company. As regards veins of gold bear- ing material, there is no possible doubt but thatthey haveplenty, and they are daily demonstrating it by the results obtained from the mill, which is now in operation. We have no personal interest in this matter, except that the Crowell is a North Carolina mine and the WatcrMan feels an interest in the welfare of ali our mines. In this case the Stock Report over step- ped the bounds of propriety and made statements very foreign to the facts, therefore we contradict them—our per- sonal knowledge bearing us out in these statements. =_- HIDDEN MINE.

He, in fact, made visited the Times office several times. himself a nuisance generally, and) Elis visits grew tiresome, and one day about three weeks ago was excluded | he was given the privilege of going trom the executive office for a viola- tion of the rules in pushing past the doorkeeper and entering the Presi- dent’s room without permission. He had not presented himself for admis- sion since his exclusion, nor had he openly sought the President’s presence but continued to haunt the vicinity of the White louse, sitting on the benches in Lafayette square, directly opposite the main entrance, and oc- casionally calling at the door and ask- ing if the President was in. No longer ago than last night (the night preceding the shooting) he call- ed, as he had frequently done before, and asked if the President was in, and being answered in the affirmative he went away apparently satisfied. He has lived most, an probably all, of the time since he has been here by swindling boarding houses. About six weeks ago he called at a fashionable boarding house in fourteenth street, kept by Mrs. William L. Grant, and by giving President Garfield’s and Seerctary Blaine’s names as references obtained rooms and board, At the end of the first month, in lien of paying his bill, he resorted to the swindler’s usual excuse—the non-arrival of ex- pected funds, Guiteau surreptitious- lv got his baggage and sneaked away from the house. Onthe day of ‘the shooting, when Mrs. Grant called at the office of a morning paper, to in- vert this little advertisement, she heard for the first time that her late horder and the assassin were one and the same : WANTED —Charles Guitean, of Iti- noia, Who gives the President and Seere- tary Blaine as reference, to call at 924 J4th st, and pay his board bill. THE ASSASSIN'S HISTORY. A Chicago dispatch says: Charles Jules Guitean is a native of Illinois, about forty years of age. He is a son of LW. Guiteau, who for many years nud up to the time of his death, which weeurred about two years ago, resided ut Freeport, [I]. About twenty-five vears ago the father, accompanied by his son, Charles Jules, then about sixteen years old, left Freeport and joined the Onedia cammunity, in New York State. The father remained with the community but a short time, eral years, and next tarned up in Chicaga asa lawyer. When a boy, nnd up tothe time of his arrival in Chicago, he was known as Charles | Jules Guiteau, but in Chicago he dropped the Jules. He visited Wash- ing about two years ago and lectured in Lincoln hall on Second Advent- sm; in which, at that time, he pro- tested to bea firm believer. Gentle- men in this city, who met him then, pronotnce him a lunatic on the snb- beat finally got into the papers. The New York Herald wrote him up ex- ‘tensively. This seemed to be the ‘chance that Guitean had long songht. Previons to that day he had not ap- peared in the public prints, but when he proposed to sue Mr. Bennet for li- bel, and did institute proceedings ‘against him, which were compromised in some form or another. He aferward returned to Chicago He was exposed by the Times ‘two or three times, but continued on ‘his conrse. Ife threatened suit, and down stairs in double-quick time or being thrown over the railing. He preferred going down the ensiest way, and did not bother the office again for months. Guitean’s wife was divorced from him on account of neglect and bra- tality. He treated here rudely and about a year after they were married deserted her and left her to earn her own living. __-—-en-.- A Slaughter of Pigeons. Ten Thonsand Killed or Muimed at Concy Island—A Cruel Sport. The ground around and about the firing point at the Brighton Beach race track is literally covered with the feathers of the pigeons killed du- ring the progress of the tournament. It is estimated that fully ten thousand birds have been slaughtered and as many more will be sacrificed before the test of skill at marksmanship and so-called sport are concluded. Birds iwhich have died without the bounds tare frequently found by the idle men jand boys who haunt the vicinity of ithe track, and that many of them ‘died lingering deaths from shot wounds there can be no doubt. The marksmanship on June 24th was cx- cellent, althongh the conditions were not quite so favorable as on the pre- vious days. A thick haze made tle light uncertain and the wind, which was from the northeast, blew the smoke back in the faces Of the con- testants. There is scarcely a moment that some incident does not occur, |which, under ordinary circumstances, would excite the pitty and sympathy of the spectators. While Dr. Vierce, the donor of the diamond badge, was shooting off in the tie score at thir- teen, one of the birds, which was ap- parently unhurt, flew in and perched en the iron wire which supports the awnings over the reporters’ stand, “Don’t move! Keep perfectly quiet 1” shouted the judges to the reporters and bystanders, fr the body of the bird, and not its life and freedom, was valuable, for, according to the rules, if retrieved within a certain time, and even a single shot mark found upon | bird to the credit of the marksman. The shooting is. still very much be- jhindhand and it is not improbable | i that the time for the tournament will be extended. ep About 7,600,000,000 pins are made in the United States every year, just about enough to hold seven women’s toive’sin positior,—Bostou Trarseriy t. ee eee The Prohibition Act. tober, A.

He was of unwholesome appearance, and was regarded as of weak mental capacity snd partially insane. His manner was "queer combination of obsequious- ness, humility, and querulons self-as- | ~ertion, Tle was disliked, and nobody ~vemed to want him around. He was tenstantly trying to get himself be- lore the public in one form or anoth- tr, He was insanely anxious to get into print without apparent object. He was expert only in one line of husiness, and that was beating board- ing houses. He cante to Chicago ten or twelve ‘ears ago, and did a little shyster law work arvand the justices’ courts, Vhese with whom:he came in con- tact speedily rated him for what he v3 worth, and their estimate of him| may be summed up in the expression that he was cracked.

Ilis first exclamation, as he creeted me, in atone of voice low and pleasant, was: \ Tam glad to see vou, sir.” Almost before jI had to respond he anxiously (inquired; “What is the latest news as to | ~ ; Ss > the President's condition ?” | time Ivave him the latest dispatches and he - |resumed his seat, inviting meto take a ‘great broad split bottom arm-chair, which sat on the floor near him. | “This assault on’ General Garficld is a | horrible crime. There can be but one sen- | timent among the peoole of this country on | the enormity of the offence. What it may forbode to the country is hard to ccter- mine.. When.a man will kill the President because he retuses him office, what may not ' be expeetcd? Assassination is usually the | outgrowth of seasons of galling oppression, j Even then it is the resort of a farce or sen- | timent too cowardly for revolution and too e. | | /contemptible for civilization to tolerat “But this crime is without even the excuse of excitement. A vulgar man murders the President in his wild delirium about office. Such a crime makes the whole natien kin, halters all prejudices, and bushes partisan j thoughts. It is evident that the crime is the outgrowth of the greedy scramble for office which has of late years been so marked. It isto be hoped that the reac- tion which this great crime will produce may correct this alarming evil. It has for a long time been growing into our system government until it appears to have finally resulted in the murder of the Exec- utive. The South had much hope of Gar- tield’s administration, and will sincerely mourn his loss as it joins in the national sorrow over the assault upon his life. I earnestly hope he may speedily recover. “Appointments and removals for politi- | cal considerations is a bad use of executive | When the Confederacy was organ- ized at Montgomery, it was provided that ne man should be removed. from office by the executive except for cause, which the | of power, | law required should be specially stated. The political power concentrated in the hands of the President by his control of patronage has been growing greater every day, and its administration has for a long tine been vicious.” “Didn't it begin in Jackson's time, when | he fathered the doctrine that ‘to the victor belong the spoils?” i “It qs a common error that Jackson was That is not true, nor is it true that removals and ap- | the author of that declaration. | pointments for political considerations be- | gan during his administration, Mr. Marcy, | whire making a speech in the Senate, made | use of the expression, ‘To the victor belong the spoils, while stating what might follow as the line of policy under certain -contin- | Another Senator, after the speech, called his attention to the phrase, and gencies. said : “That statement will be considered and trcated as an open avowal of party policy, and you had better have it stricken out.” | &No: it is there and I will not change it,” replied Mr. Marey. The first removals for political corsider- j ations began during John Quincey Adams’ administiation in the State Department, when Mr. Clay was at the head of it, and removed the printers who did the public printing. The State Department then in- directly controlled the Post Office Depart- ment, the Postmaster-General not then being that is not what I intended, but a cabinet officer.” i Speaking of his book, the criticisms upon it and the limited amount of war literature at the South, he said Gen, Early was one of the best of Southern writers, and ‘added: “Like mvself, Gen. Early cannot forget the: past, and argues from a standpoint which } most people reject. There is a queer his- tory connected with him and his connec- tion with the Confederacy. He was a Union man, and us a member of the Legis- lature voted against the ordinance of secession, but when it was pxssed he went home and raised a company, and he has never yet turned his back upon the cause inaugurated in spite of his greatest efforts. It is a prominent fact that those who were the last in, er the most reluctant to go into the Confederacy, were the most consistent- ly earnest in their support of it and the last out of it. The original secessicnists, those who were in a rush to get out of the Union, soon exhausted their ardor, and as a gencr- al thing did not last long. Almost every man who became prominent in the Confed- eracy went into secession with great re- luctance, following his State as a matter of duty, regretting that the differences could not have been peaceably adjusted.” THE RELATIONS OF LEE AND DAVIB. “The portion of your work mostly assailed is that referring to General Lee’s being in cordial co-operation with you as to the conduct of the war during its latter days.” historical > “Yes, I perceive that that is the princi- pal point of assault. Doubtless, the con- troversy between the critics will eventually establish its truth. I sce that one person says that I wanted to evacuate Richmond and that Lee did not, and another that Lee waited to surrender and | did not. No two I have seeu can exactly agree as to the alleced points of difference between Gen- eral Lee and myse'f. Fortunately, there is a better witness than all of these critics— | of President Garfield. that is, Gen. Lee himself When the grand SALISBURY, N. C., JULY 21, i881. —— ment against me for treason, it was neccs- sary to allege some overt act, and for this service Generel Lee was summoned. He was minutely examined before the grand jury, and, after his testimony, called apon me and related the whole scene before the jury. He said that they carefully examined him as to. his military operations, and specially inquired as to any differences be- tween himself and myself as to the conduct of the war. “-Treplicd’ said Gen, Lee, ‘that I had too great a respect for Mr. Davis judgment to have ever materially differed with him ; that he and I were often in consultation in Richmond and upon tie field; that I al- ways sought him whenever opportunity offered. and that there were no differences bet ween us requiring his individual action. All the military acts of which I had any cognizance ang contro! dusting the war were my own.’ . “After this specch, said General Lee to me, ‘I looked over the grand jury to see what-effect it had had upon the members, and one large colored man who was on the jury had his head thrown back, his mouth open, and was asleep. I concluded,’ said General Lee laughingly, ‘that I was not enough of an orator to interest an audience.’ “It is useless to explain all these things, or to deny or correct the idle gossip that a discussion of this question naturally pro- vokes. There is a vast deal of difference | between terms of peace and a surrender, which most all the critics I have read fail to comprehend. From the time the agita- tion began which provoked the war until its close, there was no time when I was not | ready to inake terms of peace, but to sur- render the cause was never contemplated by either General Lee or myself until after General Gordon reported to Lee that he could not cut his way through, and Lee found it impossible to get his army out, and was obliged then to surrender, THE FUTURE OF THIS COUNTRY. At this point the conversation was inter- rupted by the arrival of the mail. Mr. Davis, stepped down to meet the messenger before he had reached the upper step of the porch. seated himself, and quickly began reading aloud, without spectacles, the last dis- patches concerning President Garfield’s condition, As he read the despatches he dropped the paper upon his lap and for a moment sat in deep thought. He finally looked up and said : “I fear he will die. What a calamity! What a fearful crime! Life is full of dan- ger and bitter disappoimtments, and we all get our share. This is a terrible blow at our institutions, In atime of perfect peace and plenty that the President should be shut down by a vile wretch portends, I He took the New Orleans paper. fear, more of evil than we can now compre- hend. It isagreat pity. I do hope that he may yet rally.” Then the ex-President of the Confederacy went on discussing tne various phases of the crime, showing deep concern for the lite While he was talk- ing Mrs. Davis, a large, fine-looking, moth- erly-uppearing lady, came and took a seat in the group, and mingled her expressions of regret, regard and condolence with her husband’s. A reference to the crime recalled the war and the effect it had upon the country, our government and institutions. “We are by no means out of danger vet,” said Mr. Davis. ~The solution of the great problem of popular government. is still in the womb of time. The feresight of man cannot determine the result, as the serious and startling events which have rjdder down each other in quick succession during the Jast twenty years clearly demonstrate.” “Have they in any wise changed the character of the government ?” “Certainly. It was said by our enemies ‘when the war began that it was waged for the preservation of the Union. If that had been true, when the war was over the States were in the Union. Their relations to it had inno way changed. But instead, conditious were imposed for admission into the Unton, and then it was apparent that the war had been waged for the subjuga- tion of one section ef the country and that anew government had been created by the war. Thaddeus Stevens was most consis- tent and frank in his position as to the se- ceding States. He said, during the fram- ing of the reconstruction measures, We are proceeding outside of the constitution,’ tak- ing the ground that the States were subju- gated teritory and had no rights except such as conquerors prescribed. That was the truthful exposition of the policy pur sued by Congress in dealing with the South “When I was in prison waiting trial Thaddeus Stevens twice sent a message to ine volunteering to defend me. I declined not from any lack of confidence ia his abili- ty, because he was a man of great natural endowment, but I was aware of his line of argument. It would have been that the seceding States were to all intents and pur- poses a foreign power which had been over- thrown. Therefore their property was sub- ject to confiscation and the people to such penalties and conditions as the conquerors might impose. That would have been ex- cellent argument for me, but not for my people. As it was still being contended that the Union had never been broken up, and that the war had been conducied for its restoration, it was due that the South should have the benefit of such 4 position : regardless of consequences to myself. I suppose Mr. Stevens thought that I had a very limited appreciation of the danger I was .n.” ‘ CLAY, WEBSTER AXD CALHOUN. unfavorable | ‘description of thé theory of our government as he understood it, interspersing it with numerous anecdotes about Clay, Calhoun, Webster, Buchanan and others, in which he gave the marked characteristics of each and his estimate of their abilities aud the doc- trines which each maintained. “I had peculiary intimate relations with Clay, Calhoun and Websterg” he said. “I went to school in Mr. Clay’s?town and his favorite son was killed witlme in Mexico and he always associated with that boy. Mr. Calhoun gave my first Wrrant to West Point, and by a singular comcidence when I went to the Scnate my s@t was by his side, and he always seemed to take a fa- therly supervision over me.§-While in the House I had been upon a cgmmittee charg- ed with investigating the e Department under Mr. Webster's ac istration.

Mr. Calhoun had uene of the graces of oratory, but he did have a perfect contempt for them, and his pronun- ciation was wretched. the present day could influence the people or have the position that these men had in those days. The newspapers have taken the place of the speaker, and a greater gine than the newspapers has superceded the orator; that is, the telegraph. People want news and information, and want it in paragraphs, They will hardly stand mueh more than a paragraph of editorial, and re- bel at anything like an essay.

Speaking of the beginning of the war and the incidents which preceeded it Mr. Davis said: “Mr. Buchanan was an able man, but a very timid one. If he had had the nerve to deal with the situation as its gravity de- manded, I doubt exceedingly whether any other State South would South Carolina into seeession. withdrawn have followed Had Samter, he from it would have been such a conspicious act of the troops conciliation that the other States would not. I beticve, have called conventions to consider the question of secession, orif they had, the ordinances would not have been passed. I was not one of those who belicv- ed that there could ever be a peacetul sepa- ration of the States, but could not convince our people of it. I had years before become convinced by my association with public men. and especially with Mr, Webster, that the North would never con-ent to it. When the war came, however, it had to be met with spirit. The chance for a peaceful sep- aration of the States was lost vears before It could the north wanted to vo, and avain when the war. have succeeded when Texas was annexed, but not since. “My association with Northern people, both in the Senate, in. the Cabinet and in social lite, had convinced me of these facts. I had, vou know, spent much of my time at the North, Iremember when I was quite a boy, traveling toward Hartford in a stage coach with a number of gentlemen, I ex- pressed my sentiments freely in relation to the secession or State rights resolution of the Hartford convention, No section of this country more freely and forcibly condemn- ed the resolutions and action of that body than the Southern. When I had given free expression to my boyish opinion, an old gentleman asked if I had ever read the pro- cecdings of that body. I replied that I had not. He said that ifI knew more of their import I might change my mind. This old gentleman was Mr. Goedrich, afterwards known as Peter Parley, and had an uncle in the convention. I spent a few days there and finally concluded that Hartford the place where they originally taught the right of secession, was not such a bad place alter all.” GEN. TOOMBS AND HIS PROCLAMATION. “Mr. Toombs atributes the failure of your cause in a great measure to your opposition to his plan for the cmancipation of the slaves to mect the ehjectiuns ef France and England to recognizing your government.” Mr. Davis laughed outright at this state- ment and said : “I did not know there was any feeling between Mr. Toombs and myself. As for proclamation of emancipation, I do not re- member to have ever heard of it before in my life. That would have been a stroke of policy indeed. No, Mr. Toombs and my- self never had any differences upon that proposition, you may rely.” JOE JOHNSON AND HIS RANK, “General Joe Johnson also makes some pretty severe attacks upon your book.” “Yes, sir; so I see. I notice that he un- dertakes tohold me responsible for Hood’s campaign in Tennessee, He knows better. ‘Mood himself, in his book, which was Inmaiuly written us an answer to Gen. ‘Jolnston’s nanative of the war, says that I entirely disappoved of that campaign, aud that I was in no wise responsible for jit. That is true, I had previeusty agreed He | the graces of oratory to a greater extent | —— = he was carrying eut when he and Beaare- gard planned the Tennessee campaign. Hood was an excellent, well meaning man, bat had bad lack after be took com- mand of The army. The difficulty was _ that, when he relieved Johuston, he found ‘ that the spirit had all Leen retreated-out of what was at one time-ag fine a body” of troops as the Confederacy bad. I have no desire or intention of having any contro- versy with Gen. Johnston. I did not in- tend in my work to say anything unkind of any Confederate, and I have only re- ferred to aupleasant matters when it was necessary. Then it has been an incident of the matter I was treating. I have no idea that Johnston intended to fight at Atlanta. A simple answer, yes or no, to “my telegram, ‘Will you fight for Atlanta?’ , Woald have settled the question and pre- vented coutroversy and trouble. He chose to send a different reply, and the result is known. “Many of our people suggested that he be’retained in command until he tetreated from Atlanta, and then public sentiment would have clamored for his removal. That would have been a very | good way for an Executive who desired to | escape responsibility, but it would have been a cowardly way of performing one’s duty. It would have shown more disposi- , tion to take care of himselfand doa popu- lar thing than to do his duty.” ‘Did the trouble between yourself and General Johuston begin early in the war?” “We never had any trouble that I know of except that he was petulent about his rauk, and constantly claiming that he was entitled to the ranking commission in the Confederate army, because be had been Quartermaster-General with the rank of Brigadier-General in the federal army. That claim is easily disposed of. When the rank and position of the officers of the Confederate army were determined General Jobuston was not in the federal army. He had resigned his commission as Quartermaster-General and gone into the service of Virginia under General Lee, who was a Major-General, while he was simply a Brigadier. Afterward, when the relative rank of the high. officers in the Confederate army was determined, con- sideration was given to the position each held at the time. General Lee being a Major-General in command of the. Vir- givia troops and General Johnston a Brigadier under him, you can easily see what justice there is in General John- ston’s claim that he should have ranked Lee. Yes, this question of rank.was quite ja stumbling block for Johuston, but Lee Was never n party to the controversy.” GENERAL LEE AND STONEWALL JACKSON. “Stonewall Jackson was the greatest ex- ecutive officer of the Confederacy. Gen. Lee uttered a great trath, and from his heart when be said, upou hearing of Jack- sun's death: “I have lost my right. arm.” Lee was a great suldier aud a great man. Most people mistake his character. He was always willing to fight. At times he Was even impetuous, especially in’ the face of disaster. He would often rush into places and dangers where he did not be- rong, and many times showed his dispo- sition to be an executive Jeader rather than the controlling mind of a great army. He was one of the purest men I ever knew —a man incapable of subterfuge, evasion. deceit or indirection. He wou and held a deservedly Ligh place as aman anda soldier both at home and abroad. Wheu Jackson lived he was Lee’s dependence. He recognized Jackson's ability as an ex- ecutive officer and trusted him implicitly when he gave him his plans. Jacksen never Waited for orders a second time or sent back for instructions. After the bat- tle of Gettysburg, Lee wrote to me that he had met with a reverse, and asked me to find some younger and abler man to take his place. I replied that if I could find a younger and abler man I might de- sire to make the change, but as I had so much more confidence in him than ang other map I] knew I could not consider it. Longstreet thought he was the man Lee referred to, but Idid not. Lee bad the most delicate conception of. honor of any man I ever wet.” MR. DAVIS’ LIBRARY. Stepping up to the loaded shelves of his library, 1 looked them over, and the new- est edition was Sbherman’s Memoirs by himself. , “Here is Gen. Sherman’s work,” I said involuntarily. “Yes, sir,” said Mr. Davis, ‘‘and a sor- ry record it is. His enemies could bard- ly have told so bad a story of him and his acts as jie has told of himself. I see he is aunoyed by the reference I made to his burning Columbia. After writing himself down as a malicious liar in bis own work, in sayivg that he had started the story that Hampton was responsible for the burning of Columbia so as to break his influence, I cannot see why he should be annoyed at the reference I made toit. If Columbia had been the only place burned there might be some sense in assumming to shift the responsibility or deny the fact. Sherman had barned Atlanta after driving the women and children out of it for that purpose, and had committed other equally atrocious acts. He had put the 15th corps, ‘which always did its work thoroughly,’ in posi- tion to perform its part equally well in relation to Calambia, the hated place of all. Charleston was not more markod for revenge thav Columbia, aud why Sher- : . . : o . . - ‘ ri i » : } = jury met in Richmond to frame an indict-' Dr. Davis then gave a most interesting with him upon a plan of campasza which man should trouble himself to collect ev idence that he did- pot burn Columbia, passes my comprehension. He burned before and he burned afterward, and why he should seek to get rid of that charge I cannot comprehend.” | THE FOTUTRE OF THE SOUTH. “What is the: material future of the South ?” “That no man ean tell. If the South can establish aeystem of tenautry, or get | immigration te occupy and till its lands, there is no question bat that it basa great future. Whether the eolored people will ever reach that puint is a question yet to: be settled. Man is now in a atraggle with uature upon these problems. There is no question but that the whites are better off for the abolition of slavery. It is an equally patent fact that the colored peo- ple are pot. If the. colored. people shall develop a proper degree of thrift, and get a degree of moral edacation to keep pace with any advancement they may make, they may become a tenantry which will enable the South to rebuild its waste places and become immensely wealthy. “Negroes become greatly attached to localities, and most of them love to re- main where they were raised. Almost all of our old servants are yet on the old plantation near Vicksburg. The colored people have mauy good traits, and many of them are religious. Indeed, the 4,001), - 000 in the South when the war began were Christianized from barbarians. In that respect the South has been a greater prac- tical missionary than all the missionary societies in the world. “War was not necessary to the abolition of slavery,” continued Mr. Dayis. “Years before the agitation began at the North, and the meuacing acts to the institution, there was a growing feeling all over the South for its abolition, bat the Abolition- ists at the North, both by publications and speeches cemented the South and crushed the feeling iu favor of emancipa- tion. Slavery could have been blotted out without the strains which revolution always makes upon established forms of government. I see it stated that I utter- ed the sentiment, or endorsed it, that ‘slavery is the corner-stone of the Con- federacy.’ That is not my utterance.” TS CTD A TE IE Fat NEN ELIE ETT MISCELLANEOUS.

China is likely to profit in an unexpee: ted way from the scare she has lately been in over the threatened Russian in- vasion. The palace authorities have al- ways looked with disfavor upon the building of railroads within the bounda- ries of the empire. But the ministers who had charge of the war preparations found themselves hampered Ly the total lack of adequate means for transporta- tion of troops and supplies, and it seems to have struck the Emperor that his great empire is practically defenseless so loug as it is without railroads and tele- graphs. Preparations are making, there- fore, to introduce both on an extensive scale. The Atlanta Constitution says that Mr. H. I. Kimball, the energetic manger of the cotton exposition, to take place this fall, has hit upow a novel plan of taking care of the creature comfurt of visitors. The hotels of Atlanta, it is apprehended, will be entirely unequal to furnishing bed and board for the thousands who will gather there in October. Mr. Kimball, in this emergency proposes to ask all the people of Atlanta, rich and poor, without regard to their own comfort, to open their houses to the visitors at a fixed schedule of prices. In accordance with this plan all arrangements for board and all .pay- ments therefor would be couducted by the managers through ‘a special depart- ment, which would be responsible to both householders and visitors.

Religious osaseniblies, town meet- ings, legislatures, al] the organized bodies throughout the laud have passed resolu- tions of condolence, and the telegraph and the wails have borne theusands of messages, couched in choice language and expressive of the deep grief that pervades the hearts of all the people.

Daring Train Robbery by a Daud of Des- peradoes—The Conducior and a Passen- ger Killed—The Irpress Safe Piundered. | By Telegraph to the Morning Star. Kansas Ciry, Mo., daly 16.—Inferma- tion has been received here, by the in-| coming Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific train, of a daringly planned and snecess- ful train robbery at Winston, on the Rock Island road, supposed to be under the leadership of Jesse James. The men boarded the train, which leaves this city at G P. M., at Camden. At Wiuston, when the train stopped, they staod ap i: aislo of the car with drawn revolvers. One of the bandits advaneed, with a re- volver in each hand, toward Wm. West- fall, couductor, and ordered him to hold | up his hands. The conductor was slow! in complying with the demand, aud was | shot through the heart by the desperado. One of the other meu shot through the head John McCullough, a stone-cutter, of Wiltoa Junction, who turned outward. in his seat. The men then went through the train to the express car, and over- powered the U. 5. express messenger, Charles Murray, who was intimidated into the operi.g the safe, from which $5,000 wer taken. The desperadoes then went to the engine and told the en- gineer to start the train. This he could not do on account of the automatic brake and he was at once fired upon by the rob- bers. The engineer put ont the lights in the cab and crawled along the foot-board to the pilot, and after extinguishing the headlight laid down in the pilot. The robbers made no search for him but de- > h parted. No attempt was made to rob the passengers. The populace about Wius- ton ruse en masse and armed wep are now seeking the desperadves. St. Louis, July 16.—A special from Kansas City gives a few additional par- ticulars of the train robbery near Wins- ton, Iowa.

McClellan, the stone | eutter, who was shot through the head, also fell off the car, and fell by tie side of the @ead conductor. When the rob- bers entered the expres3 car Charles Mur- Tay, Messenger, was looking over some of his papers, and Frank Stamper, bag- gage master, was sitting in a chair near the open door, Both men were imme- diately covered with revolyers and, when Marray objected to handing over the keys of the safe he was knocked down. It was thonght that gboat $15,000 was in the safe, but the exact amount is not known, The generally accepted theory out on the road is that the robbers were profess- ionals. One of them—the tallest one— was seen in Cameron all day yesterday, and could be identified by several people. Men who have been searching for the rob bers to-day found where they had their horses tied in the wilds, and say that in their hurry to get away they did not an- tie them but cut the halters and left them hanging from the trees. —_____-«- - —_ — A Chicagoan, singing himself George Pike, telegraphs to Colonel Crocker to keep the assassin on low diet.

He secs things as we kvow them, and tells his tale in a otraiglt-lorward way. He says: “Entering upon this prilgrimage 1n 1876 thoroughly imboed with Re- publican principles and the idea that negro oppression and butchery were the chief pastimes of the Southeru gentlemen and ex-slaveholders, iy Northern friends of the same school of opinion naturally expected me to Janneh out intu terrible tales of blood and rapize. They expected prompt and ample verification of the popular idea that the poor, honest, industrious aud naturally intelligent “man and brother” toiling with Christian forti- tude and industry towards the attain- ment of independence, self-respecting manhood and) commendable citizen- ship, between which and him stood the Southern white man to the last mother’s son with bloody knife and smoking shot-gun, Almostany North- ern man. will adinit that this is not an overdrawn picture of the Northern Republican idea of the social and po- litical condition of the South in 1876, and in making a tour of certain sec- tions of the North last summer. | found little if auy modification of this view among the untraveled mass- es, [say that [came South enter- taining about this view of the state . ys ” of affairs. Having, then, these bitter prejudi- | ces tostart with, he admits that it took some time for him to understand the trach. At first he confesses he would not believe his own eyes when the bare fucts as they exist were forced upon his notice. And_ yet he asserts ‘it isa fact that the colored man asa laborer aud a citizen is much better treated and fully as well paid as the white Jaborer in the Middle aud Eastern States.” He draws a picture of the white labor at the North, where the supply is greater than the demand and shows to what bard usage the Northern laborer piace and his bread. And plements this with the easy-going way of duing business at the South, where the supply is less than the demand, ond where labor is freer and less ne- cessitous than at the crowded North. Hesass that he has passed from one} plantation to another, and) from one community to another, and “I say positively that I have never trave.ed in asection in which the laboring classes were as thoroushly independ- ent as are the negro farm laborers ot the South asa whole. Nor is there another section in which the laboring | classes live as easily and are as con- tent, in the Jegitimate sense of that term, as are these same negroes. Take the State of North Carclina, from Which there were so many exodus- ters to Kansas a few vears ago, when the Northern Republican press poin- ted to the fact as evidence of the un- bearable oppression which made North Carolina untenable for them, I find that the demand for labor, winter and summer, exceeds the sup- ply, and therefore not one single colured man or woman need be idle a single day. Consequently,” he con- cludes, “there is no crowding or driv- ag, and the laborer goes his own way and works or runs about the country as he sees fit. When perchance the farmer does havea faithful land, he is Shown favors that no white laborer in the North would think of expect- ing. L would say, in conclusion, that in the cases of the tens of thousands of negro laborers under Southern em- ployers and overseers which have come under my notice, 1 cannot call to mind a single instance in which a blow, or an angry vath, or any violent expression has been used toward the negro laborers by his white directors. There are, without doubt, such cases, but’ they must be rare indeed that some of them should not have come under my notice in five years’ travel and study of the South.” ee seem geeee Fish That Fly. An old sailor said that there wus! nothing on land not to be found in the sea. There are sea cucumbers and carrots, and many other vegeta- bles that look very much like those whose names they bear. Some of the fish even havé names like those of land animals. They are hog-fish, sea- horses, toad-fish, and sea-cows, But the most curious of all is the fying- fish, which has broad fins like wings. This fish is shaped and colored some- thing like a mackerel. Its back is bine and its under parts are white, When it flies it takes short flichts from the top of one wave to the top of another, The fly ing-squirrel can fly, in this way, from a higher point on a tree to one lower down, ‘They are plentiful near the West Indies where the water is warm. In ite morning the sailors may find a dead fish on deck. It had seen the lights that the vessel carries at night and flown toward them. It could fly high enough to reach the vessel’s deck but could uot fly across it. It ma fave struck a boom or sail and fallen dead has to submit, or lose his | he sup- | cn — lvards. After wetting their wings or fins, they can fly farther on, They look as if they enjoyed their life in the air, but they de not always fly for pleasure. Tbe dolphin, a very fierce land fast swimming fish, hunts them lin the water. When the poor flying ‘fis tries to escape him, the great sea birds, the gulls and pelicans, seize them as they fly out. They are very good to eat. The people in the is- lands about which they live them cateh in dip nets and fry them. This is the most accurate descrip- tion of the flying fish we have yet seen. Itis inaccurate we think in only one particular. The flying-fish needs no wave of the sea to put it on its wings. ‘hey leap out of the wa- ter very much like partridges out of the grass, and fly very much like them except the noise of the wing is not heard. | The laboring classes, who need money the most, help pay the taxes, ‘although they may not kuow it or ‘realize it. If a merchant pays taxes fon his goods, he charges more for ‘them and the purchaser has to make lit up, whether he be rich or poor. | And so on in every relation of fife. | Now if property owners are taxed be- cause of the crimes and pauperism engevered by the liquor traffic, much of the tax comes, after all, out of the laboring man. He is therefore, inter- fested to break up the business of idram selling, and ought to vote for Prohibition. | SS OO | The abuse of liquor must be reme- et and corrected oy moral influence hand police control, and not by legis jlation.”—J.

But Dreamland saw another sight, When the musqueto came at dead of night, Dispersing thoughts of sleep in flight By means of his cussed hummery. The victim, all in white arraved— The ‘sketer drew bis battle blade— And furious every muscie played To keep him from viscesery. Then shook the walls with howling riven ; Then rushed the hand by anger driven, And louder than the bolts of heaven, Far sougds the awful cussery. | | | But reder yet that face shall glow, ; And mader yet that man shall grow, | With the hunrand stab of the musqueto — | A believer in phlebotomy. | The combat deepens.

[Correspondence of News & Observer.]} it is the babit of writers in the hi- quor interest to discredit all unwel- came statistics from a distance by pro- ducing distinguished ‘opinions’ to get over against facts, With them the “opinion” yf a New York city com- mercial newspaper outweighs the state- meuts of facts and observations on the subject in Maine by judges, solicitors, lawyers, Governors and Senators. | In the twelfth annaal report of the Massachusetts “Burcau of Statistics of Labor,’ Jannary, 1881, a tabuier statement is given of the “liquor of- fenses”-—arrests, trials and convictions occurring in Boston (and the county) in 1880, The result is that 84 per ‘cent, of the crihiimal cases. were found | to be connected dircetly or indirectly ‘with the use of intoxicating liquors. | Similar statemeuts are made by the judges aud prison officers of the States of Connecticut, New York, Penusy!- vania, ect., aud of England also, giv- ing the per centage of crime attribu- table to intemperance at 75, 80, 85 and 90 per cent. But as these are all too distant to bave any weight what- ever in North Carolina with the class of reasoners referred to, the executive cominittee of the prohibition conven- tion have taken the tronble, in the absence of any statistical records in this State, to ascertain from some of eur Judges a statement of their obser- vations on the subject of the relation of crime and intemperance. The following letter from Judge Schenck will show what liquor drink- ing dees for North Carolina: LincotnTon, N.C., May 2, 1881. Prof. W. C. Kerr: Dear Sir:—Your letter, inquiring what per centage of crime, in my opinion, was attributable directly or indirectly to the intemperate use of ardent spirits, has been received. I was at the bar from 1857 to 1874, and had a large practice on the crini- inal side of the docket. From 1874 to 1881, I was one of the Judges ot Superior Court of North Carolina, and traversed the State from one end of it to the other, and, therefere, my opportunitics for observation and re- flection on this subject have been am- ple. I give yon my deliberate opiu- ‘tp that fully seventysiive per cent. of all crime, in this State, is attribu- tab.e to intoxication by spirituous h- quors, and that of the crimes charac- terized by violence the proportion ts even Jarger. Tadd to this that very much of civil legisiation originates also in this fruitful source of evil. The taxes raised trom the sale of spirstueas liquors do not amount to vpe-fourth the money paid out by the people in court costs, jail fees, lawyer’s tees and other expenditures incident tu the execution of the criminal law, and three-fourths of these expenses, us 1 before stated, are chargeable to whisky. Now add to this the moral ruin, the social destruction, and tie politi- aud the computation is appalling to every virtuous and sober mind, 1 have no dotibt that the statisties you can gather trom the inmates of our jails and peunentiary will confirm all IT bave written. Very truly vours, D. ScireNcK. Judge Eure says: “Of bomicides and all crimes against the public peace, Lam of the opinion that more than fifly per centum of these resilt direct- ly from intemperauce,” and be attrib- utes many ‘of the crimes of other classes indirectly to the same cause. Judge Seymour says: “The com- monest offenses on our dockets are thoseswith violence upon the person. Of the minor ones, assault and batter- ies and affravs, &c., intemperance is the almost invariable cause. Of the cases of homicides which I bave tried in the last two years, 1 now recotlect ten, of which six were, ip my opinion, traceable directly to drink. With re- gard to other offenses I cannot speak with as much certainty, but the ad- mitted truth is that the criminal class is, as a rule, a part of the inteaiperate class.” Judge Gudger says: “Of the crimes of violence tricd before me 7d per cent. are due directly to intemper- ance.” In his charge to the grand jury at the last Anson court, be stat- ed thet he had recently held court in two adjoining eastera counties, each of large population and otherwise sim- ilar,except in one respect—that the one (Northamton) had a county pro- hibitory law, the other (Halifax) had not. In Northampton he found eight eal corenption whica whisky produces, | for their lives, and that forty-three ont of the forty-five could trace their crimes directly to whisky;: that be practiced in the courts uf Narthamp- ton, and that since whisky had been driven from the county the docket had dwindled-until the jadges and lawyers had nothing to do. Will these facts, too, be “whistled down the wind” as “fagatical ?? They are the things that have so profound- ly moved the staid old State and drived her to seek a remedy, X. MISCELLANEOPS. A balf dollar of 1807 is Worth sev- enty-five cents, A’ five-cemt piece of 1795, in geod condition, is Worth one dollar. Fifty-cent pieces of 1818, 1819 and 1824 are worth sixty cents each, A half cent for 1851 is worth eiglit cents.

The amateur's father was the owner of a large hall, and he offered the use of it to Gettschalk -for his benefit. There was to be a piece for eight pianos, and the amateur was to play one of the instruments. I was‘the leader. I thought Gottsehaik would havea fit when I told him that the amateur couldn't -pley three straight notes. ‘He is sure to throw us all out,” said I ‘and ruin the performance,’ “Gottschalk swore like a majer, byt t'was no good. .

As soon as he left we took the ham- iners out of his piano, and made it as dumb as an oyster. I guessed be would never know the difference, the seven pianos going at once. The tuneful convention Jaughed. “And just as I thought,” said the leader, hammering on the table with his glass, “that amateur or his friends never discoy- ered the trick.” “No?” “No, sir; he just sailed in and pound- ed on that piano as if it were the worst ene- my he ever had. He was bound he would show off among so many good pianists, and hammerd on his key-board until the per- spiration nearly blinded him, Now and then I looked at him approvingly, to give him fresh courage, and every time that I did he gave the piano a lick that nearly made matchwood of it. His friends all around threw bouquets at him, till he look- ed like a wedding arch; and when it was all over, his fond parent fell on his neck in the greenroom and slipped a check for $250 into his hand. The old man didn’t know whether he was standing on his head or his heels, he was so tickled, and the way he set up the wine for the crowd was acau- tion.” “-Didn't he look fine’ said he to me, ‘among so many first-class professionals too? “-T never beard an amateur do so well in public,’ said I.

The comet which made its appearance to the naked eye in the northeastern sky on the morning of June 23, and was seen from many points between Hartford, Conn., and San Francisco, Cal., is perhaps the comet lately reported by Dr. Gould, of Cordova Observatory in South America. It appear- ed, after its perhelion passage, in the con- stellation Auriga, about eight degrees from Capella, with a bright center and a tail 15 degrees long. It promises to be a conspic- uous object in the heavens this summer. The new comer was almost simultancous- ly discovered in this country by P. H. Thompson, Blufton, Ga.; by T. L. Ed- wards, Haverford College, Pa ; E. L. Lar- kin, New Windsor, and several others. We are indebted to Mr. Thompson for a special telegram announcing his interesting obser- vation. A correspondent of the New York Sun reports the discovery of the comet at a little before 2 o'clock, A. M., June 23, at Wash- ington. This we believe is the very earli- est sight of the stranger, and may entitle the observer to the Warren prize of $200. The first appearance of the comct is thus described by the Sun correspondent : “Just before 2 o'clock this morning the writer was summoned to an upper story windew by a night watcher in the hotel. Pointing to the horizon just east of the Gcorgetown Heights, the watcher said : ‘Don't you sce that distant fire?” “Shooting up from the horizon was a bright, silvery, perfectly defined, and steady stream of light, fan shaped. It was wholly unlike the light of o distant confis- gration.

There were none of the waves of light suggesting | an auroral display. The distant glitter of (a moving electric light was the only ex- planation that could be given of the singu- lar phenomenon, Suddenly there arose from the horizon a brilliant disk of light, bright as Venus at her brightcst, and ful'y as large as that planet appears. Inte this disk or nucleas the fan-ehaped stream of light converged. There was no longer avy doubt: it was the bursting into view of a comet, the like of which has not been seen since Donati’e comet of 23 years ago. “The comet rose rapidly and became & splendid object. At 8 o'clock it was about 15 degrees above the herizen and 45 de- grees north of the moov. At this altitude the tail was about 10 degrees long. It moved apparently rapidly in ao easterly dircction, and was visible until after eua- rise. At half past four it was seen at Bodie, Cal., where the nucleus was well defined and the tail brilliant.

The identity of this remarkable body will doubtless be soon determined. Pro-: fessor Lewis Swift thinks it may possibly prove to be the great comet of 1812, which has been expected to reappear in this quar- ter about this time. Dr. Gould, of the National Observatory of the Argentine Republie at Cordoba, S.

Loxpon, July 8.—The Laneet, the lead- ing medical journal of London, says: The accounts of the condition of Mr. Garfield are on the whole satisfactory. They have reasonable ground for hope. There are of course many perils still to be encoun- tered. Secondary internal hemorrhage may occur when the ballet is surgically or accidently displaced; extensive ivflam- mation or blood poisoning is possible; but looking at the case as a whole and recalling the history of similar c:ses, it is impossible not to feel that a fairly good hope is permissible. It may be assumed that the course taken by the bullet must have been gach as to avoid injury to the most important structures. It is scarely possible that any large veesela can have been injured, and a hypothesis of the complete severance or even of a severe injury of the great nerves is bot necessa- ry to account for the pains in the lower extremities. The liver, if wounded, can hardly have been extensively laccrated. If Mr. Garfield survives thé perils of the vext few days and the bailet can bo’ ex- tracted, there can be no medical reason, at leaat arising out of the general char- acter of bis injuries, why he should not do well.” aay EvectricaL LicguT PaTENTS. —About 175 patents have so far been granted for pat- ents relating to electrical lightinj, in this country, and about 300 more applications for patents thereon are now pending. When we consider the large number of patents now existing for telegraphing in- struments, telephoncs, alarms, electrics! batteries, switches, and the divisions of electrical devices, it will readily be under- stood that the Patent Office at Washington is rapidly becoming a great store house of novelties relating to clectricity, and that this branch of invention is already one of extraordinary magnitude.— Scientific Amer- ican. a Linconton Progress: The Weat.

Mr. Lobinger, at Philadelphia, in the courze of his sermon, said: “This last act, which filis all minds, is but the natural aud legitimate outcome of ‘stalwartism.’ It is the culmination of crime. ‘This man Guiteau was not insane. He had a personal grievance, it is true, but he was moved to the commission of crime by the factieus spirit of partisanship. Not that he had any personal relations with the leaders of stalwartism, but his act is the logical fruit of their idezs and spirit. Whatever the issuc, ‘stal wart- ism’ is doomed. The people will no longer coneent to be ruled by a mod- ern Mephistophiles such as Roscoe Conkling.

As the old “red cent” lias now passed out of sight, like the “old oak- en bucket,” its history is a matter of sufficient interest fur preservation, The cent was first proposed by Rob- ert Morris, and was named hy Jeffer- son two years later. It made its ap- pearance from the mint in 1792. It bore the head of Washington on one side and thirteen links on the other. The French revolntion soon ereated a rage for French ideas in Ancerica, which put on the cent instead of the head of Washington the head of the Godess of Liberty—a French Liberty. The chain on the reverse side was displaced by the olive wreath of pence; but the French Liverty was short lived, and so was her portrait on our cent. The next head or figure that succeeded this—the staid, classic dame with a fillet arcund her hair—eame into fashion about thirty or forty years ago, and her finely chiseled Grecian features have been slightly effected by the laps of time. —— > (pea —— — Phrift- Thrift) iz an admirable household virtue. Without pretense or imposing airs, it expresses a world!y condition very furl of comfort. It is the note of an advancing and hea'thy civilize- tion. Intelligence, foreenst, activity, ecouomy, and good mansgement enter into its meaning, It does not mean wealth, but competence weil in hand. The rich may be thrifiless, the poor thrifty. It is the well todo habit that holds current interests in equipoise, and gives hostages te the futare. The thrifty individuals and classes of society inevitably rise to the sur- face; the thriftless as inevitably sink to the bottom. No thoughtful person can deem these results strange. They follow as effect follows cause.

A little while ago— only a few years—the crop. was: but little more than 100,000 bales. In 1879 it bad grown to 389,576, The probability is the crop of }880 exceeded this and more than 400,000 bales were produced. With the increase of the cotton crop there is an ip-. crease of, cotton. factories. But the in- crease of the latter is not by a long way in proportion to the inerease of the form- er, Itoughtto be. Every report from the factories South of us.is encouraging ;. some uf the reports are astonishingly en- cournging. 1 But.the strangest. thing to us about the cotton crop in our State is the distribu: tion of. productiveness. : Theré are eonn- ties like Cumberland, Montgomery, Bla- den, Onslow and Brunswick that ought to produce much more cotton than they do. You find counties like Wake, John- ston, Mecklenburg, even Cleveland and Guston,:growing a great deal more cot- ton than you woald have thought, whiist Randolph, Rockingham, Forsyth, avd. other counties produce but few Dales. The statistics show that nearly all the counties produce the great staple, and doing a great deal more if the demand and price should authorize it.

The cotton seed oil extracted was shown to be entering largely into consumption as food in the place of lard and olive oil, aud the meal or vesidium of the ground cotton seed to. enjoy a large and increasing demand for live stock and asa fertilizer. It is also | fonnd to be the best adultesant known for ground mustard, and is extensively used for this purpose.. Iu faet, there is now an unlimited demand for cheap ma- terial with whieh to adulterate standard articles of food, and whoever can supply them will be sure to do an enormous ba- siness. The manufacturers of cotton seed oil have an industry in which such arti- | cles are produced to great advantage, and in which every portion of the raw ima- terial is utilized and where is absolutely nothing wasted. Somethiug hke a quar- | ter of a century ago this profitable brauch of manufacture did not exist and the cot- ton seed were thrown away to rot.

Willis writes of *t young girl who was killed while passing under a telegraph wire, on the brow of a hill, while she was hurfying home Lefore a storm. The sad accident at Morrisania, when two children were killed, should warn every mother that it is not safe to let children stay out doors the last minute be- fere the storm falls. Peopleshould not be foolhardy about sitting on porches or by open windows, whether the storm is hard or not, Mild showers often carry a single charge, which falls with deadly effect. It may or may not be safe to stay eut; it is safer to be in the house with the doors and windows closed. The dry air in a house is a rcadier conductor than tiie damp air out- shining overhead.

Oe Dry EartH as A DistnFectanxt.—The }folowing is taken from Cood Health: | Dirt is so cheap that hardly any one appre- ciates it worth, at least very few know its value as a disinfectant. Dry earth is-really one of the most excellent of all disinfec- tants, and possesses avother advantage in that it can always be obtained in any quantity, without money and without price. Its veay cheapness is, perhaps, one reason why it is so little esteemed and employed. The character of the earth used is, how- ever, a matter of consequence. Coarse sand and moist earth are valueless. To be | effective the earth must be fine and dry. Dry, powdered clay is perhaps best of all. Dust from the road is excellent. Dry coal ashes are also very exccllent. By the free use of dry earth, sinks, stables and similar sources of foul gasscs and disease-produ- cing germs may be kept in a perfectly wholesome condition. The application of the earth once a weck, once a month or twoor three times in the course of the summer is not, however, sufficient. To be effective it should be applied daily, and ‘when the matter to be disinfected is large] several tines a day. —— ee The baby clephant, bory in Philadel- 1 water shrieked. ‘know!

The sur- veying party consists of Col. Fleming sitman; A. Shorter Caldwell. leveler; E. A. Robbins, draughtsinan; W. J. Doran, transit fodman; and George McGehee and Howard Haywood, chain carriers. Col, Gardner is an engineer of great experience, having been ou the survey of the North Carolina Railroad thirty years ago, and is thoroughly posted as to his duties. The surveyors left Goldsboro on the 27th of June. -Their route intersects the North Carolina Railroad near Princeton, crosses the Neuse River at Turner's bridze (tro miles from Smithfield) intersects the Ral- eivzh and Augusta Air Line roxd between Merry Oaks and New Hill, and crosses Haw River near Moore’s mill, at the mouth of Robertson’s Creck, and up the valley of said creek to Pittsboro, passing through the northern portion of the town, just above the postoffice. The total distance from Goldsboro to Pittsboro is 76 miles, and a rajlread can be built at a small ex- pense, as but little grading will be neces- sary along most ef the route, and the first twenty miles from Goldsboro is a straight line. The surveyors are now running the line between Pittsboro and Ashbore.— News.and Observer, —-— -- op eo —-- --— AMERICA’S SILK INDUSTRY.—The fotlow- ing from the New York Herald will give some idea of the progress that has been made in this country in the culture and manufacture of silk.

Until of late the mayvilla, and oth- er shells of its kind, have been altogether used in Europe, aud it is umneh thicker than the pearl shell. The difference in price is so great, however, that the latter must eventually be in great demand. There are now extensive factories in Phil- adelphia turning oat pearl shell battons aud ornaments, whieh are retailed at fab- ulously low prices.

His! father died whea he was seven years of age, | fand his mother when he was nine, leaving las : Peleht children, | Tle was adopted into the | accomplished family of his guardian, Col. ! Edward Jones, of Rock Rest, Chatham | county, He was sent to school one year, | and at the end of that time, February 28, | 1812, he was placed with Mr. Gales in the! tegister, with whom | he remained until 1824. Ile then went to; Washington City, where he spert one year | in the Intelligencer office, pertecting himself’: in his business. At the end of this time, | he was invited by John D. Eccles, Esq. | and Col. John McRea to Fayetteville, to | assume the editorial control of the Observer. | He conducted the Obserrer from the 8th of | January, 1825, until March, 1865, more} than 40 years, when Sherman's forces | burned his office and book-stere, thus de- priving him of his means of living. This vandalic act wassimilar to the outrage of Admiral Cockburn, of the British forces, who, when he had captured Washington City in August, 1814, sacked the office of the National Intelligencer, Forty years of active industry had blessed Mr. Hale with a comfortable fortune, which was well nigh obliterated by the stroke of war. In Au-} gust, 1866, he removed to New York city and re-opened his business as publisher and bookseller. Though in his 78th year, he is still active and industrious. A true hearted North Carolinian, he loves his State and her people, many ef whom honor apd cheer him by their visits when they are in his adopted city.

Fur nervous persons and luna- | Ges, one or more applied to the spiue produc- ied seep when opiates, even hydrate of chloral, | had been of little servire. Now, when one can- | not sleep, its is t..e cummmon practice to apply ‘a Plaster tu the back. You scarcely touch the | pillow before you are sound asleep. | <Alleocks Porous Pinsters have the curative effect of the Spanish fly blisters, yet make no - sore, and never affect the kidneys; are conveni- /eut forall ages and conditions, usually only | producing «a “blush” on theskin, and more cer- tainly curative than liniments or blisters, and Without prostration or pin of the latter. This is rue eveu in Croup, Quinss, Pleuriay, Lung and Phroat Affections, aud the utility of this saniviry invention has been warmly wel- conel, Puey are largely sold inevery part of the world, and itis believed that not less than five bundeed thonsand persons are well, and attending to the duties of life, free from pain, whohave an Alicock’s Porous Plaster some- where about them, and who, but for the said plaster, would be prostrate upon a bed of ago- Beatles, a peculiar piny, pleasant odor, halo, | or atmosphere exhales from them by the warmth of | the bodu, imperceptible to the eve, but which | envelops the person in a cloud of thin vapor, ; through which contagion cannot penetrate. In i fact, Allcock’s Plasters supply an atmosphere dike that from balsam or pine woods, and no | doubt attract ozone, When contagious or infect- ius diseases are about, they should be worn on the ‘chest or back as preventives. | THE ALLCOCK’S POROUS PLASTER oothes patn, reanimates torpid limbs, seeins, /in wany cases, to revive the powere of life. | The great derund proves them to be used as a nuiversulremedy, They are convenient of ap- plication, and sate for all, being incapable of producing ing injurious effects, Dr. Valentine Mott, Dr. Johnson, of Hart- ford, and Dr. Myers, o! Savannah, have spoken fof them in the highest terms, The great Mott ; said: “They were all that could be hoped for lina plaster—simpie, cleanly and adlesive; | perfect as artificial supporters of the muscles; j} and for pains, because of their counter-irritant | I | ) i ny.

In Serious heart and chest affections their use causes an absorption or evaporation of wa- ter, by which dropsy of the heart and hydro- thorax have undoubtedly been cured. They appear to have a peculiar effect upon the nervous, allaying irritability while supply- ing warmth. Théy seem to accmulate elec- tricity, and “aid the circulation of the blood through the part where applied, by which healthy actions are induced. The Porous Plasters are flexible; and found of great help to those whe have weak backs or pains in the side. Expecially are they val- uable to those who have neglected colds. They are often preventives of consumption; nay, ‘ they are believed to have loosened the grasp of | this terrible affliction, and had been mainly | instramental in effecting a cure. In variable | climates they should be worn on the breast, or | | between the shoulders, or over the kidneys, by | thoae who are subject to take cold easily.

At Kinston, N. 0., Aug. 3d, 1881. —- + f 5 The inception of the American people differs from that of all their contempora- » ries. The existing nations of Eurupe grew up from bdrbatous tribes. They were acorus planted, and, springing from the earth as tender shouts, grew slowly amid the dangers of anprotected. immaturity into tall and self-reliaut positions in the world’s forest. By tedious and painful degrees they attained to their present “strength and created their civilization. , TheAgneyiean colonics, on the contrary, | were transported as half-grown, thrifty saplings into the fertile soil of this new conlivent, where they took root so quick- ly and kindly that their natural growth was accelerated rather than interrapted i by the process. They brought with them the learning, arts, sciences and civiliza- tien, such as they were, of the parent soil. They passed through no infancy uo child hood, Such as¢the acorn-planted nations endured; and unless we speuk by com- parison‘with themselves it may, be said they bad no growth, ao primitive po he- roic age. Certainly they had no mythic ‘| age, and no miraculous fable adorns or disgraees their origin. It cannot be said of them that any wolf suckled their God- begotten founders, as is said of Rome, or that they came of an infamous conjunc- | re tion between dhe outepat Sey thian witches R.R.

SALISBUNY, N.C Januay22 1879—tt. und the jufernal figads, a8 was the boast of the Iluus. More simple and more glo- rious far was the nativity of the colony of North Caroliua. No peopie who ever occupied the earth had a more honorable or illustrious paren- tage. She was cosceived iu the brain of the most remarkable and accomplished man of his age of our English speaking race. She was bern of two of the noblest and highest passions that animate the human heart—patriotism aod religion. Sir Wal- ter Raleigh, in fitting out his expeditian, ! which landed on Roanoke Island in 1532, | was actusted chiefly Ly the desire of strengthening his country in its terrible contest with the Spaniards, who threat- ened the domination of the world, and of propagating what seemed to him that purer form of the Christian religion which was then straggling fur a footing npon the earth; and however much tlie baser dross of wild adventure and per- sonal gaiu may have adult rated these nobler motives, with Raleigh and his as- sociates, there can be no doubt that the higher predominated. The men theu- selves were of the best yeomaury and gentry of old England, hardy adventur- ers, plous, niuch enduring, faithful and brave; and they were filled with the new principles which were then stirring all Europe with the thir-t for civil and reli- gious liberty. Raleigh has perhaps no superior in British annals, take him all iuatl He was at once a suldicr, states- ‘man, historian, scicutist, navigator and poet, and whilst there were doubtless, during that great age of Elizabeth, sol- diers as brave and skillful, statesmen as ; profound and wise, historians as fluent and accurate, navigators as bold, scien- tific men as learned, and poets who sang as sweetly as be, yet that island so rich in the gevius of its children, did not then possess and bas never since possessed, a mau who combined all these capacities with so mnch of excellence in each. Such were the mev and such their lea- der, whom we claim as our founders. Virginia and North Carolina justly avow that they are the offspring of these dar- ing and patriotic spirits—that they were conceived and brought fourth by the greatest men of a great age. Further into this early story of ours I do not propose to go. Of the renewal and perishing of Raleigh’s colonies on Roanoke, ef the subsequent stream that poured into John Smith's settlement on the James, and finally overflowed into North Carolina through Durant’s Neck, Fear country of Clarendon, of the Swiss uuder DeGraffenreid, of the Germans, Lutherans and Moravians, Scoteh High- landers, Scotch-Irish and Haguenots—all of whom in time came to compose the early population of our State—of these I cannot speak. Nor cau I tell at snch a time as this of thetr slow and steady growth, of their deadly struggle with sav- ages, their conquest over the forest, the mountains, the rivers and sea, all of which had to be subdued before comfort aud civilization were assured. If I had the time and the learning a much more interesting and imstractive theme for me would be the history of their efforts to work out the problem of self-government and to frame a systew of Jaws suited to secure the freedon and promote the wel- fare and happiness of a people in the wil- derness. No portion of human. history so well deserves the study of those who value the well being of race as this, and no other State in this grand constellation of free commonwealths furvishes more serious and instractive lessons on the science of building law upon the basis of netual experience and making govern- lar wants, than: dees North. Carolina. aN 7 SY » Da LANDRETH & SONS, Philadelphia, Pa 33:3 Our story will: show beyond any doubt of the English who came intu the Cape] ed can be made to secure the public pros- perity. ' 7 The experiment made by the Lords Proprietors with the Fundamental Con- stitutions for the government of Carolina ‘is fall of testimony in this behalf. Eu- rope perhaps claimed no brighter genius than John Locke, their author. He gave to his task the profoundest learniug and severest meditation. He laid the ground work of ap ideal government, and to all human appearances laid it well. It was intended to operated in a virgin land with no old systems or old prejudices to clash with its provisions. It was so tried, and no invention of man ever proved a more signal failure. He did not know, could not know either, what was wanted by or adapted to distant people whom he had never seen. He forgot, or wag igno- rant ofthe fact, that governments, if un- ‘forced by extraneous, circumstances, , grow and develop naturally, fitting them- | selves to a peopleas the skiu of animal |fits itself to the increasing size ‘of its ,; bones and muscles. The ideal specula- | tion of the scholar did not meet the wants :of the unlearned settlers in the North | Carolina forest, and after a fair trial they cust it out as unfit. - | One thing leads to another like thing. | So it came to pass that the work of other \ /and more practical men than John Locke | began to be subjected to the same scruti- | ny and share the same fate that he did. | The opinion soon came to prevail that ‘then so far distant as the British Parlia- iment could not rightly understand tu wake laws for the squatters in our forest aud that British ministers could not always know best when to approve or i disapprove of such as the colonists made for themselves.” In short, they had al- ! ready discovered the virtues of hoine rule | aud so they began to look back for those ancient rights and liberties which had been contended for a foretime by the men of their blood. In each of these they found the germ of a great principle, to which as Bntish freemen they believed ‘themselves entitled, and the extension and application of which to these colonies would be for their healing. Tney learn- ed from Magna Charta te hate the domi- vation of strangers and favorites, and also from that instrument and from the history of Parliament all the way back to the Witenagemote, or assembly of the wise men of the Saxons, that the power to impose tases can rightfully be conferr- ed only by those who impose them. No scutage or aid” shall be imposed in our kingdom conceded King John, at Runny- meéde, “unless by the common coudeil of our Kingdom.”—"*No Freeman shall be taken or imprisoned, or disseized, or out- lawed, or banished, or any ways destroy - ed * * * * * onless by the legal judgment of his peers, or unless by the law of the land,” he says again, in the XLV article. They learved also of the great writ, by which men are rescued from illegal imprisoument; of tne uulaw- fal tyranny of quartering soldiers in) pri- vate houses, dud the oppression of deny- ing men a trial by their peers of the vic- inage, and of substituting th: refor mili- tary conrts and other extraordinary tri- bunals. All of these things, and many more of like nature, began to-be talked over and dwelt upon in the cabin homes of North Carolina a century and a half age, when the times began to dawn towards the morning of revolution, Onur sturdy fa- ther’s began to wonder how it was that what was good for England, so good as to be worth the shedding of 80 much blood, was not also good for her distant children; and to ask how the English people could make such struggles to free themselves from particular species of despotism and then turning about inflict those very wrongs upon their own off- spring. England was, in fact, defying a great political truth so often yet so un- availiugly taught by history—that a free people cannot inflict slavery on their de- pendent communities without sapping phe foundations of their own freedom ; that such subject communities can indeed only be kept contentedly as integral por- tions of an empire when permitted to share fully the privileges and intitations of the dominant State. The great seminal principles which constituted the basis of British freedom and prosperity had been denied these American culonies. | With a strange want of logic, the Brit- ish people coutended that none of their race were entitled to self-government ex-. cept these who dwelt iu the parent isle. That these principles were the apt and natural methods of free goverument, is proven by the universal tendency of the people to apply thew, and the denial of them produced at once an angry discus- sion. This discussion was ono of the most remarkable known to political history, both in methods and results. Never before the era of universal print- ing aud the postoffice, nor perhaps since, have the great masses of the people been made-so thoroughly acquainted with the principles of goverumeut and the issues |} upou whieh their liberties depended, and never was there a pedple io such circum- nent pervonsly responsive to the popa- | stances supplied with an abler, more -zealong and more patriotic band of Jead- ers.

There is a force, clearness, logic aud ac- | eurate acquaintance with history, as well as familiarity with principles of law and all current topics pervading them; that’ we are not only not prepared to find, in- that age, but are scarcely able to equal in this, with all of its advancement, Prominent iu this brilliant array of statesmen and soldiers, who then control- | led the destivies of North Carolina— j probably his many-sided qualities con- sidered, the most prominent—was: the man to whose memory we honor this day —Richard Ceswell. He was one of the most remarkable men who figured ip that exciting period. He was born iu the State of Marylaud on the ' 3d day of August, 1729, just one hundred aud fifty-two years ago this day. IT have not been able to learn in what part of the State of Maryland was his birthplace, nor | have I been able to learn anything con- cerning his family, more than that his father was a merchant, who, failing in | basivess, young Caswell was at an early | age thrown upon his own reseurces. The effect of this misfortune to the fa-! ther proved, it seems, anything buta | misfortune to the son; it served but to! give us another instance of the uses of ad- | versity in the development of genius. Shielded no longer by the providence and | wealth of his father, the genuine mas— hood of the youth was brought out. Ob- taining letters of introduction from the | Governor of his native State, at the ten- | der age of seventeen years, Caswell boldly | set out southward to seek his fortune. Tn those days there was 6 going west, | the direction now universally taken by adveptarous youth; the French claim to | all that vast region Leyoud the Blue Ridge, and the fierce hostility of the In- | dians, incited by Freuch iniluence, effect- | nally barred that way te fortune. Arriv-! ing in North Carolina he presented his | letters to the royal Governor Johnson, | aud by his aid obtained a small place in one of departments of government. How | he conducted himself here, aud the eapac- ity for business he displayed, history does | not iuform us; but we may infer that his conduct was cuineutly satisfactory to his | superiors from the fact that about the | period of his majority he was made a | deputy surveyor of the colony, then an oflice of considerable importance. Again in 1753 he was by appointment of the royal government made clerk of Orange county court. His appointment gave signal evidence of his ability and! integrity. : Senator Vance then reviewed the his- tory of Gov. Caswell at much length, paying the bighest compliments to tho virtues of that noble man, virtues which | shove always with a steady light, and won for him the love and regard and ro- ! spect, not only of the people of his own | day and geueration, but of us his descen- | dants. ‘ The part Gov. Caswell took ia securing the independence of the State and the Colonies was pictured to the audience ia | graphic language. The part taken in! this glorious work by the Ashes, the Kenans, the Hoopers, the Moores, the! Caswells, the Lillingtons, the Harnetts, | and others was described. The descrip- | tion of the batde of Moore’s Creek was’ vigorous. The results of that battle and its influence on the struggle were also. described. The part taken by North Car-_ olipa in the war of the revolution, with the privations endured, the sacrifices made | aud the heroic efforts made by them, all | were given the attention of the speaker, ! who went on to say that North Carolina | furnished by far the largest contiugent in all the continental armies operating in | the South. But historians of other States have but too often appropriated for their own troops the honors due to North Car- | olina. Every North Carolinian can right here learn » lesson. Let us record our deeds, and let not other bistorians per- ; vert these facts. ‘| The important part that Gov. Caswell : took in the civil affairs of the State was described at great length, aud with an elaboratien of detail. His social quali- ties were of tho highest order. He was for years Grand Master of Masons. In every field, in every department, our peoyJe loved to honor and trust him. At all times, in all places, he did his daty, andshowed his fidelity to his State. Death found him at the post of duty, for be was stricken in harness.

Somebody had placed the cut-off ends of iron bars across the track, and in proof that it was done with a view to mischief they were placed some distance apart, so that but for the extreme caution of the en- gineer in sending forward after find- ing the first in anticipation of the others further on, serious damage might have ensued.—Charlotte Ob- server. 0 The Atlanta Constitution says, Rep- resentatiye Bransom, of Bartow, yes- terday, introduced a bill to send all murderers, whe were acquitted on the ground of insanity, to an insane asy- lum for life.

Paris iry Conference. — Mr. Howe said that althoagh no direct re- sults had: been reached, the confer- ence had been of value in’ that it had} breught the question of bi-metalism prominently before the ic and ex- cited ic interest in it. As to the attitude of the conference he said : “The Belgian representative was there a8 a strong monometalist; so also were the representatives of Sweden, Norway and Switzerland. Tlie com- missioners ‘tria, Maly and Spain inclined strong- ly to bi-metalism.. The attitade of Great Britain was the principal ob- stacle we had to con with. Her re tatives ‘were in favor of the double standard, but were inhibited froni committing the nation to it. The Ministry opposed bi-metalism, and they did it, not because they do not favor the double standard, or because they want to keep silver out of thecoin- age, but because they have other im- portant business before them, and feel that they can put the coinage question off to'some future day. The matter, however, haa been the subject of dis- cussion in the financial and commer- cial cireles in Great Britain, and a strong sentiment has been found in favor of bi-metalism.” “With regard to Germany,” con- tinued Mr. Howe, “her representa- tives pointed to the action taken by her in 1873 in adopting the single gold standard, and said they did not see any necessity for impeaching the propriety of that meve. Still they are not opposed to silver, and are on- ly waiting for England. If the lat- ter country comes to adopt the dou- ble standard they will join with her willingly and gladly.” Mr. Howe stated further that the gold coin held in reserve by the Bank of France was even less than one- third of the entire metalic reserve, as had been stated ; also that the pros- pects of Italy’s placing her new loan, on. which she proposed to resume spe- cle payments, were good. As tothe probability of a general return of the nations to the double or bi-metalic- standard, Mr. Howe ex- pressed’ himself very hopeful. His attention being called to an opinion expressed soon after the last moneta- ry conference, by one of the United States Commissioners, that the United States should not wait for other na- tions to take the initiative in the mat: ter of a return to the double stand- ard, he said: “I would be unwilling to see the United States start off on such a course alone, or even accompa- nied by France. It would be a boot- less step unless we were sure of the co-operation of England and Ger- many.” ————- oi eee A Fool’s Borgeries.

' The London Newe exposes the ar- tifices practiced on American deivk- ers of French wines, and its story ia altogether in accord with or own information. We understand,tbat « gentleman recently ordered from Paris a lot of a favorite brand of champagne which is sold in quanti- ties in the United States. His torres- pondent replied that not a bottle had been exported from France to Ameri- ca in years. All in-the tradeshere were spurious. The News says “the Americans have begun to awake to the fuct that it is better for them as well as cheaper to drink . theit.own California ports, sherries and clarets, than to pay large prices. for heavily adulterated foreign wines. J.ittle or none of the so-called Bordeaux sold in New Yerk has much in cothmon with the genuine vintage of theGir- onde. A little of the real -wine is mixed with a great deal of otdinary grape juice and water, a “body” is imparted toit by the addition of some Spanish wine, and the whele is often further diluted by California wine palmed off upon the ingen- uous American as veritable Bordeaux. This blending process is sometimes donecin Franceand sometimes by agents in New York. Americans, in conse- quence, have grown suspicions of the high-priced French wines which they have hitherte preferred to their own productions, and are turning instead to the growths of the California vine- yards.” It is quite true that the penchant for foreign wines is giving place to a preference for our native product, and the reason is doubtleas that sta- ted above. When it shall become fashionable to drink pure wines, and look with disfavor on the adultera- ted stuff which is palmed off under French names, the excellence of our native wines will be appreciated on every side, and not only California but Virginia and North Carolina as well will profit by the change. We have excellent wine makers, and pro- duce quantities of pure and health- ful wines. Let them be brought for- ward and supplant the spurious arti- cles that prevent their sale and use. _——~ oie Be Economical. Look most to your spnding.

It has shown that it is easier te incite men to resistance against restrictions than to induce them to self-denial for the:r own or for the public good. It is not to be supposed that the defeat of probibition ig all disaster to the cause, for it is not. The discussiens ,which were elicited during the canvass were as the scattering of good sceds which will yet spring up and bear fruit. Every truth an- nounced has found a lodgment somewhere, and will yet come forth te de good. Error often triumphs for atime, but ultimately Lyields to truth. , : The advocates of prohibition have no apology to make: they were. actuated by no grand misconception as to the merits of the cause, but purely from conscientious convicticns of duty. They believe that the use of and traffic in spirituous liquors as a beverage is detrimental to the political, secial, financial. and moral welfare of the people, and that it sheuld be prohibited ; and could not, as good citizens, fail to say so at the ballot box when called on to speak. The anti-prohibitionists themselves admit the leading truths contended for as the ground of their action, but reach a dif- ferent conclusion as to the remedy for the evil. They opposed prohibition, but de- manded rigid restrictions on the traffic—a difference of opinion, as honestly enter- tained, no doubt, as that he!d by the more ultra party. ; We dismiss the subject with the convic- tion that-good will- come of the lzte can- vass, but it may be in a way not now seen. Infinite wisdom directs the affairs of men; and though shreuded ia cleuds and dark- ness for a time, the light comes at last to cheer and to bless all,.the erring as well as those more nearly right. . iaiia<: >-« The Caswell Monument.

But the machine described XNbove at $150 is cheap, if it will do more work in two hours than a dozen men could do in two weeks. A dozen men fur two weeks, each at 60 cents a day, will cost $86.40. Picks, shovels and overseer, will run it up to $100. The machine and threo hands to work it, together with two four-horse teams, could be operated a whole day at a cest of $15.00; aud if they did in that time as much work as the dozen men in two wecks, there would be a clear saving of about $85.

The patient is reported to have suffered greatly from thirst, no one being allowed to administer to his wants bat the guard, who did not kuow whether to allow plen- ty of water or not. Since the death of Buchanan, the excitemeut has somewhat abated, as itis thought there will be no more new cases. All parties in that sec- tion of the county are under strict quar. autine aud every precaution taken to preveut the possibility uf uew cascs. NEARLY all the ills that afflict mankind can be prevented and eured by keeping the stomach, liver and kidneys iv perfect working order. There is ne medicine known that willdo this as quickly and surely, without interfering with your dt- tics as Purker’s Ginger Tonic.

No mre ee The pretty love story published in our last of a young lady who, in seekinga situation as governess found a wealthy hasband, turns out badly. The young lady was victimized by a scoundrel, who deserted her on their way to his suppos- ed beautiful home in Wisconsin, and took refuge in Caunda. Dr. Franklin, it was, wo think, who said, do your courting abroad, but marry near home; which means, according to to our construction, that people should know each other very well indeed before entering the matrimonial state. It is certainly dangerous for a young lady to take op with anentire stranger on an acquaintance of only one or two weeks. So Institute Notes.—We have gathered from County Supt. G. R. MeNeill, the fol- very successful session of the Rowan Teachers’ Institute which closes here to- morrow : There are sixty teachers in attendance, including about twenty-five ladies, and several of the oldest teachers in the coun- ty. Eyery township in the county has representatives. The instructors were proficient, and all who attended seemed please with the opportunity here afforded them to gain a better insight to the teach- ers’ professional duties. The establish- ment of thia valuable aid to the advance- meut of public education in our midst is, in part, due to the efforts made in that direction by the Rowan County Teachers’ Asssuciation. oO - We omitted to mention iu our last that Theo. Bnerbaum, T. K. Bruner and Charles Veale, set out from this point in private carriages a few days ago to make a tour of the mountains, the Roan in | Mitehell, being the first point in view, and Mitchell’s Peak the second. There were spare seats in their carriages, and it was reported that some fair captures on the route would be made. The ouly tidings since their departure was a hasty i scroll to the effect that Buerbanm was in \love. Veale might pass anywhere fora preacher, but we do not suppose he was engaged for the performance of clerical | duties. | 0 { : . | Tur Boarp of County Commissioners | met last Monday, the 8th inst., for the | plaints as to excessive asscssments of | various properties ter taxation. After l this work was dune, there were two peti- ltions for licenses granted to retail | piritous liquors in the city. One to iC. E. Mills, and the other to 8. C. Miller. The voice of the people rules in this coun- try, and was heard on last Thursday ; and however painful it may be for us to chronicle the fact, we suppose there was no other course for the Board than to grant to the above parties their license. The request of Mr. Blackmer, that the Board reinove thie tax levied on incomes, which was mentioned in our last report of procecdings of this body, was again taken up. The Board agreeing that un- der the law they had no alternative but tu levy a tax on incomes, granted the re- quest so far as to reduce the tax from 1 per cent., as heretofore, to ¢ of 1 per cent, on the dollar. DIED. In this city, Aug, Sth, 1881, Mrs. Elizabeth Phifer Craige, widow of the late Hon. Burton Craige, and daughter of the late James and Margaret Erwin of Burke County, N.C. Mrs. Craige was a descendant of sever- al of the old and influential families of Rowan and Cabarrus Counties — the Phifers, Lockes and Brandous of the old days—she inherited a vatural refivement of manners coupled with characteristic modesty and reserve. In 1836 she was married to Burton Craige Esq., with whom she lived asa faithful and prudent wife, until his death, five years ago. Owing to the public em- ployments of ber husband, the manage- ment of the house, and the training of the children devolved mainly upon her, but she was equal to the task. In 1855 she became connected with the Presbyterian Church of Salisbury, and for 26 years she was a quiet, humble and consistent Christian ; manifesting her re- ligion rather by a meek and consistent life, than by a forward profession. It was not until her last illness. that she spoke much of her spiritual exercises. Then her faith in Christ, her hope of heaven, and her victory over death were signal- y manifested.—Five children and anum- ber of grandchildren mourn over their loss, but not as those who have no hope.

Bagley reports everything moving on well at the “Reimer.” Shaft is over 150 feet deep. The vein is well defined and is producing good ore. Gotp Hriu.— Work is progressing as fast as possible. The machinery is soon to ar- rive, Tue H11u Mine.—The new hoister works well. They are taking out ore every day. THe Sam Caristian.—They will soon have the new hydraulic machinery in ope- ration, Then we hope to see some more of those nuggets. The amount of bullion assays for July, at the Charlotte assay office, was $7,688.56. —Charlotte Observer, Aug. 6, 1881. Aside from the above amount thousands of dollars’ worth of gold is shipped to New York, Philadelphia and other headquarters of the mining companies now operating in the State. Mining superintendants will find it to their advantage to send all gold bullion to the Charlotte assay office. Re- turns are always quick and correct. Besides the State will then have the credit of the production. ‘The mines in the Salisbury district, it is hoped, will make a good exhibit at the Atlunta Exposition. Any specimens will be sent by freight free of charge when ad- dressed to Capt. C.C. McPhail, Agt. R. & D.R.R., Atlanta, Ga. Capt. McPhail has worked this matter up in the interest of the R. & D. and the country at large. Some one has truly remarked that min- ing in North Carolina is yet in its primitive state. Of course itis. Four years ago mining was almost unthought of, there being but six or eight properties at work in the State. At present we have about forty or fifty. Half of them are about erecting mills for the reduction of ores. Eight or ten of them are paying. The bal- ance are working in expectation. Another two or three ycars and North Carolina will have many legitimate and paying mines, with more experienced men, AnoTuER New ENTERPRISE.—The Win- slow gold mine, situated five miles west of Ashboro, is just in the act of equipping the mine. At present they have hoisting works up and in operation, and are now erecting the mill. The ore is quartz con- taining free gold. Seme of it is reported to be worth $80.00 perton. The mine is worked by a New York company, and R. A. Meeker is in charge of the work. ee CRANBERRY IRON AND COAL COMPANY, This valuable property is located in the rough and rugged coanty of Mitehell—in the valley between the Blue Ridge aud fron Mountains, and aboat 32 miles from Bakeraville, the county seat. The company was incorporated under the laws of North Carolina. They own five thousand acres of land. The ores taken from this property are what is known as magnetic iron and is the very best of the kind. The average value per ton by assay is 63 per ceutum of metalic iron. There are five veins, the width of which are as follows: First 20 feet; sec- ond, 6; third, 30; fourth, 25, and fifth, 34. All of these are included within a distance of 177 feet. They are working three huge tunnels, one of which (the main ene) will cross cut at right angles all five of these veins. This main tunnel is 14 feet in the clear, 1] feet atthe top and 84 high. It i8 calculated to use mining cars aud min- ing locomotives in this tunnel, The old workings were conducted in a different manner. They skimmed tho tops of the veins where exposed, taking up the soft, partially decomposed ores and smelting them at a forge. This prac- tice has beeu discontinued. Abort 1000 tons of ore has been taken out during the last month. They use air coinpresser and Rand rock drills. Contractors are pow engaged iu build- ing thirty-five houses, A town has been laid out in regular streets, and when the buildings are completed the appearance of the place will be greatly enlianced. Nearly all the grading on the compa- nies Railroad from Johnston City, Tenn., to Cranberry is completed and it is ex- pected that by this time next year the road will be finished and in operatien. ee Fiaeatown, N.

He was one of the foundess of Racine Colicge, and the author of the systcm of plank roacs. In 1856 Racine College conferred on Bim the honorary de- gree of dector of laws. In 1849 he was consul at Hamburg, Gerinany; and in 1853 he was Unlied States mtnister to the Republic of Ecuador. In | 1559 he returned to his native place, Whitestown, where he still lives, 1a the 82 year of lis age, closing luapplly and honorably a long iife devoted to his country, to society, and to hosts of friends. In 1822 he married Nancy R. Hampton, of Salsbury. His oldest child, Mary, was the first wife of Hon. Jobn W. Ellis. afterwards judge, and governor of the ‘State. Several years ago his first wife died, and as proof of his gallantry and hisloveof domestic lfe, he has recently married a second time; and his re- maining years, and those of his excellent consort, are devoted to works of benevolence and charity in his native town. . ‘The livcs ef such men as Philo White and Edward J.

Let us consider the (wo syndicates. First the Richmond syudicate. About ten years since the State was by the sudden annoucerment that the tichmond syndicate had leased for thiety years the North Carolina Rail- road, ‘The dissatisfaction and alarm of “North Carolinians” were so great that the authorities were directed to take legal proceedings, whien culini- nated in a majority of the Supreme Court sustaining the lease. The best lawyers of the State did ‘not hesitate to express their disapprobation of and dissent from this epinion, At the first meeting of the Legislature there- after held, a committee was appointed and instructed to look into the meth- ods by which the lease was obtained. The siguificant result of this investi- gatiop was the refusal of the presi- lease to say whether money consicer- tion had been paid fur obtaining it, putting lis refusalon the ground that the answer might eriminate himself, Safe against the courts and the Leg- islature “our neighbors” immediately destroyed our home system of rail- roads by changing the gange of the road they had lease, thus rendering through connections for North Caro- lina rasiroads a matter of diffeulty if paot an dmposstbility.

The “honest and just public” will he dazzled to learn from the forego- ing certificate that the Richmoud and Danville Extension Company propo- scs to have at some time in the futute a capital of $5,000,000, and some- what astonished to see that that com- pany sets out upon its irruption of grand enterprises with a subscribed capital of $5,000, to what extent paid in we are not informed, We come now to the Boston syndi- cate; A number of gentleman, resi- dents of Boston, New York, Balti- more and Washington, having been induced to believe that the re-estab- lishment of an east and west line of railroads in Nerth Carolina, connec- ting in the west with the Tennessee roads, and in the east with ocean steamers, touching at Morehead City, would result in profit to sue¢h persons as might be able to effect it, met in Boston during last May and organiz- ed themselves into a company with a paid up capital of $500,000, as has been certified to the State autorities of North Carolina by the proper authorities in Massachusetts. Shortly after organization, several of these gentlemen, of known wealth aud character, visited Raleigh to eon- fer with the Governor and officers of the State for the purpose of learning to whatextent they could depend upov the assistance ‘and support of those officers and the people at large. This conference resulted in a writ- ten memorandum = of agreement, whereby it was engaged that the de- sired support aud assistance should be gven, when these gentlemea should do three things, to-wit: First, deposit with the commissioners of the Western North Carolina Railroad $250,000 with which to reimburse Messrs. Clyde Logan and Buford for any assistance rendered to Mr. Best by them; second, obtain the lease of the Atlantic and North Carolina Railrod, and secure its conditions begin active work on a line of new railrond between Goldsboro and Sal- isbury. Of these conditions, the first two have deen already and literally com- plied with. As to the last, large and expensive engineering corps, have been in the field since the last of June and are now proseenting with viger the work they have in charge. Of course the begivning of actual con- struction must be controlled by the engineers. But ecrtainly all that could be done, or was expected to be done, has been done. No man can predict with certainty an event waich lies in the fature; but the promptness with which the “Boston syndicate” deposited with the @om- missioners $250,000 and with the Atlantic and North Carolina Rail- road $85,000, together with their activity in surveying the new line, naturally encourages us to believe in the ability and intention of that syn- dicate to carry their enterprise to euccess. It may fail. All human ef- | fort is liable to failure. By the barest | possibility the Richmoud and Danville Extension Company, with its sub- scribed capital of $5,000, may fail to build railroads, canals, mills and fac- tories in most of the States and Ter- ritories of the United States and in the Republic of Mexico! Of course when failure comes we must sub- mit. “ Fortuna manens me gaudel ; Sed si celeres pensus quatet,” why we stand it the best we can.

Hartmann, the Russian now in New York, tells us that when entering upou the work to which he is still devoted and for the furtherance of which he has come over here, he entered into a league with certain parties, the words of which are as follows: “You are from this moment a member of the Executive Committee. Give us your word of honor that you accept the programme and the statutes of the com- mittee, as read; that you will act by them to the letter; that you will obey noconditionally all commands of the Conneil; give us your word of honor that vou will never for one moment hesitate tu give up your own life if it be neceszary for cur common cause; that you under- stand fully and truly that you from this moment belong body and soul, with all your will, all your ideas, faculties and energies to the cause of revolution.” “T anderatand all this fully,” [answer- ed, “and give my word of honor to be true to our cause to the last.” Can there bea worse, more danger- ous and more destructive tyranoy thap the one to which this man thus sold him- self? See geen ee A DaNnGerous CounTERFeEIT.---A Chi- cago special of the 30th ult., says: A dry goods house of this city to-day sent to the Sub-Treasury a silver dollar which is provounced the best counterfeit coin ever secn. It is beautifully made and has a slight tron appearance which is ofteu found in the genuine standard dollar. It is silver plated and acid does not affect it unless the surface is scratched ap. The weight is the marvelous point in the de- ception, The counterfeit as it stands, would pass in size casily, aud its weight would not be detected on any but a small scale. It weigns 98 per cent. of the gen- 'uine, while the average good counterfeit does not weigh more than 75 or 80 per cent. The ring is excellent and the sil- ver-plating has obviated the usual greasy feeling in counterfeit silver dollars. The coin is almost perfect, and will uygdoult- edly create mach trouble in business cir- clea The date of the coin is 1878, al- though that may be chauged in the fu- ture by the makers. There is reason to | believe, from careful exanination of this piece; that the counterfeiters are prepar- ing to shove these coins extensively. The experts at the Sub-Treasury pronounecd it the most dangerous counterfeit dollar that bas ever appeared. —-__— SrNaTOR Vance a8 A Writcer.—We have for many years regarded Senator Vance as one of the best of living North Carolina writers.

Joseph Doyle lived with his mother at Dyke's will, and kept company with Sallie Walker, daughter ot Capt. Jas. H. Walker. She was the belle of the neighborhood. Doyle was con- sidered the most fortunate man in the country round. Capt. Walker was one of the promiment citizens of the parish, and considered a wealthy man, and for reasons best kowwn.to himself, Doyle postponed the wedding, and being possessed of a glib tongue, sciyced his betrothed, and lett for Texas, The ruined girl at once contided to her father all the particulars. [fe, like a true man, took her in and exred for her, and he, however, swore a solemn oath that sheuld Doyte ever cross his path he would take quick and terrible vengeance. His threats were made openly. No one ever expected to sec the seducer again in that locality. To the surprise of everybody he returned last Sunday, and in less than two hours had Walker's foot on his throat and the contents of a doubie barrel gun in his body. Walker made no attempt te escape, but gave bond to appear for trial. ~~ Another Treasury Seandal. WasuIncton, Aug.

UC Mr. SCARBORO, State Superintendent of Education, delivered a very interest- ing address at Opera Hall, Thursday | night last, on the subject of Edueation. | He was listened to with marked atten- | tion, aud must we think, have impressed his audience with the priceless value of education asthe great means by whieh the State is to attain and hold a respee- table position inthe family of States, | He dwelt on the importance of increasing the efficiency of the public schools, which are capable of dvuing a great deal more good than all the private schowls and colleges inthe State, and thinks the! time is coming when the State will de- mand compulsory edaeation just as she , now enforces the collection of taxes for school purposes.—The Hall was very hot, but the speaker held his audience to the end of his address. | Saat eee THE WESTERN N.C. R. R. The board of Directors of this com- pany met here Monday. Present, Col. A. B. Andrews, president; and Judge A. C. Avery, Gen. Bob Vance, Col. W. E. Anderson and S. H. Wiley, directors. The president was ordered to complete the alteration of the road at Newton as soon as possible, to obviate the delay and the danger of backing into town. All uutaken contracts on the Paint Rock and Ducktown branches, were let out to the “American Construction Com- pany.” It was stated that 1,400 hands are now at work on the road, and that the number will be increased to 2000. The road isto be completed to Paiut Rock by the 15th of November. An iron bridge all ready purchased, will span the French Broad at or near Warm Springs. The work on the Ducktown branch will be completed to within halfa mile of Pigeon river by the Ist of December. Mr. V. E. McBee of Charlotte was elec- ted Superintendent of the Road at a salary of $2,500 a year. A thoroughly go-ahead spirit charac- terized the meeting; the directors cer- tainly mean business. Nor do they seem to fear losing the road, but are anticipa- ting a far richer harvest in travel and freights on the. completion of the two branches than have yet been dreamed of by the public. So faras we can learn everything is prosperous and promising under a management which lingers not. ee EErED > aae———— Resolutions, Whereaa, we the teachers in attendance upon the Rowan Teachers Institute have greatly eujoyed, to our mutual profit and instruction the exercises of the same, and whereas, we desire to express our full ap- preciation of the advantages that we bave experience, do therefore lved, That the thanks of members of the lustitute are due and are hereby extended, Ist.

The tannel which was conm- menced some time since has been driven to the vein which is rich: PHa@ntx.—The Chlorination works are now started. ° We notice on the streets this week the following gentlemen who are interested in or aboat to purchase mining property, Dr. J. H, Mears, Phila., E. W. Wilson, Pa., Gen. C. Leventhrop, and party, N. P. Harbin, Dalton Ga. ——~ , TRON AND MICA Mines of Mitchell County. .The county of Mitchell, in this State, has been made famous by its rich de- posits ef iron aud mica, Its iron is prob- ably the tinest to be found in this coun- try. We met Gen. J. T. Wilder ‘who erected the first forge in North Carolina. Just after the war this gentleman sent a ton of Mitchell County ore to the firm of Brookes & Crooke, Sheffield, England; where it was manufactured into razor blades, ‘and stamped: “Rees & Wilder’s Magnetic.” These blades, Gen. Wilder states, are only two removes from the ore. There were only 18 dozen of them ‘and they are now scattered all over the ‘United States. Mr. Theo, Baerbaum of Salisbura pur- chased oue of them trom a gentleman in Florida. Gen. Wilder offered him a pre- mium for it, but failed to obtain it as the owner claimed that it was the best metal he had ever seen. Gen. Wilder carries a pocket knife of the same metal, with out makiug the least impression on the blade. This gentleman is now conducting the Rock CKEEK Ikon Wokks, The mise now produces about 2000 pounds of the very best iron per day. This and the Cranbarry Tron Works, reported in last paper, are the only Tron mines now in operation in thecounty. Mica Probably the largest mine in the County is the CLaRRissa Mica, located 34 miles east of Bakersville. It is owned aud worked by private parties; Mr. J.G. Heap and Mrs, Clapp, being the owners. The mica is found in a feldspar vein, bound by 4 lard wicacions gueis. The average width of vein is about four feet. They are down 325 feet; the yield at this depth being fully as good as that nearer the surface. They have six shafts; the deepest 325 feet, and the most shallow, 25 feet. The latter is a new shaft—the average depth, being 200 feet. These are all connected by winze, and stoping — each shaft being sunk on the vein. They use horse whims for hoising both mica and water, in addition to which they have one steam hoist; the engine by which it isrun has not ceased its steady stroke for over eighteen months—its stoppage for one day would require several days time to clear the mine of water. Mr. Heap informed us thatthis was a paying mine—his exact language being : “We are making some money.” The mica as it is taken from the mine is not marketable, but must be divided and sub-divided, marked out in “shapes” or squares and cut; then wrapped in poand packages, when it is ready for market. An establishment in the town of Bakersville, keeps a corps of hands steadily engaged iv preparing the mica for shipment. THE CLOUDLAND Mica, two miles beyoud the Clarrissa, is owned avd worked by the same parties. It is a drift, or open cut into the side of a mountain and has been worked as deep as 500 feet and driving. ‘Tus Sinx Hore Mica, 5 miles from Bakersville, is alao owned and worked by the same parties. They are down 100 feet, six shafts—average depth 85 feet. There is oue large vein, about 4 feet wide, ov which all these shafts are sunk ; and they are also con- nected by tunnels. THE Cook Mica, owned and worked by same parties, lies 12 miles from Bakersville. They have sunk five shafts, average depth, 40 feet. The vein dips at an angle of about twen- ty degrees—almost parallel with the surface. THe Howe. Mica, 9 miles from Bakersville, is worked by Irby and Grindstaf. They have two shafts, aud are down 30 feet. All the above properties are consider- ed paying. Tue Presvey Mica, has been worked for eigit years by Mack Young, Esq.,—down 50 feet—not produ- cing well at this time. —_———< > Mining Noles. LARGE 8ALE3. Mr. J. J.

Yet 1 believe they doubt the wisdom of the ultra-pro- hibjgion lays, Mr, — saidsat ‘first, he would not vote at all, but he has dcter- mined to vote for prohibition. I believe myself, that the true temperance move- ment begins in the cradle of eyery cbild that is born. When boys are bronght up to learn self-control and self-denial, then drinking will cease on the earth, aud no | sooner. For cxample, infants are allowed to suck to wepletion, till it would kill them, I suppose, if nature did not relieve them by throwing it off. Then they are allowed full swing to their appetites as they grow up; to eat bread and jelly all the morning ; can’t cat a substantial din- her; eat what duinties they like and re- ject plain food; can't eat cold bread F must liave the top wattile, &c. If they choose to make their supper of cake, it in all right; not to mention to be allowed to do as they please generally. A boy brought up in this way, ifhe never saw or smelt liquor till he was twenty-one, is traived up to be adrunkard. If temp- tation comes to him he has no self-con- tro] to mect it; he has néver formed the habit of denying liimeclf anything he wanted. He falls an easy prey to bad habits of any-kind.

The writer has been engaged in fish cul- ture fer about nine years, and being at the lurginniny, a mere novice in the business, I j have, of course, committed many mistakes during this period, and [ propose to men- tibn some 6f them, in the hope that it may prevent others engaging in the business from committing like errors, My: first stock of tish was obtained from the ald McCay mill pond, then the proper- ty of Mrs. W. GQ. MeNecly. They consisted mainly of the different. varieties of perch | (Perea flavescens), sunfish (Pomotis auritus), j and suckers (Cautostomus commers mii.) My experience is, that the sucker will not breed in small, circumscribed ponds, unless there be, at the head of the pond, a shoally, gravelly stream, in which they may deposit their egys. It, however, the small fry of the sucker be pot into ponds, they will thrive and grow to fall size. T tound that my first stock of peach and sunfish did well, grew rapidly, and soon at- tained toa large size. The fecundity ef these fish is amazing, and so very prolific are they, that F found at the end of two years they had so gre.tly overstocked my pond that there was not a sufficiency of food fer them, and the consequence has | been, the fish have ceased to grow, and I was seldom able to catch one of any con- sicterable size. . | Iwill here state that the sunfish and | | perch are insectiverous, i. e., they feed al- ost exclusively on insects and aquatic worms and their larvae. If, therefere, the pond be overstocked, it will be impossibte | for them to obtain a sufficiency of food; | consequently the fish wiil grow very slowly aud will scarcely be one or two inches long, when they are one or two years old; ‘only the head grows a little, whilst the ; rest of the body remains small. As soon as young fish feel the want of food, for any considernble length of time, the gristle and | bone of the skeleton barden, thus bringing its development to a close, not allowing na- ture fair play, and the fish remains a_runt or a cripple for the rest of its life, even if it | 13 placed in ponds or streams affording un- | limited supply of food. It did not take me many years to learn | that the cultivation -of the perch was a | failure, and of course I was thoroughly disgusted with the whole tribe. I am con- ; vinced that they really do not possess any | value either as an article of food or as a | fish for other fish to feed upon, a considera- | tion that sheuld be taken into account, in considering the value of a species, though small. They are considered by many to be a fair “pan fish,” when of good size, but such as we are able to raise in our small, overstocked pends are generally so small 'as to be ofno economic valve. Therefore, if Thad the thing to commence again, 1 should, in stocking, my, pond, reject the perch: as comparatiycly worthless. About the third year after the erection of my pond I introduced a fine epecies of the mullet (Mozostuma oblongum). This fish has been of vastly more profit to me than any other variety Ihave ever yet tried. It is emphatically a pond fish, is ‘very prolific, and is perfectly at home in a small pond. When fully grown they weigh two to two and a half pounds, their flush is-of fine fla- vor, and they are an excellent table variety. Therefore, I should advise beginners to stock with the mullet, by all: means, They teed on worms and insects, but if there be a scarcity of these, they are fond of bread, mush, boiled hominy or rice. They are not carniverous, and consequently do not prey upon other fish. Indeed, they are a species of sucker, or bear o close resentblance. Being dissatistied with my general stock, I concluded about four years ago to intro- duce the common trout (Salmo fontinalia), I procured some ten or twelve good sized breeders. These during the first season, produced inealculable ‘numbers of young try. They were hatched during June and July. By October they were four or five inches long and would bite on a worm like a perch. Inthe spring, they had attained a length of eight or nine inches and would weigh from $to # of a pound. Prior to this, there had been countless numbers of Oyprinoids, such as minnows, silverfish, etc. Soou I discovered that these were disap- pearing rapidly. By the end of the second suinmer, many of the trout had attained a weight of two pounds or more, and their young were largely on the increase. Dur- ing the month of July of ‘the present year, I frequently saw, and showed to other per- sons, a school of young trout, that doubt- less must have contained ten thousand. They were about an inch and a half long, and were always attended by one old trout (about a two-pounder) that swam in the midst of, or around about. the sehooly My pond has beceme almost. literally.” depopu- luted (if the word be admissible) of: al] the perch and other. varieties, excépting trout and mulletsthe Alatter: die in ‘the mud.

I have latterly read a<good ‘dent about ‘* sfeeper is. too, a. thing, the German carp (Cyprinus edrpio) and have been much struck.with what is said of its fine qualities and adaptability to pri- vate culture, in small ponds, I have there- fore determined to try it, and have written to the proper authorities to obtain a sup- ' ply. This is my main reason for draining my pond and getting rid of other varieties. It is my intention to keep my mullets in the same pond with the carp. According to my reading and best information they ‘ each feed about alike, and neither being a game fish, they will net feed on each other. I am. going to adopt this plan at a venture. I am not sufficiently versed in ichthyologic ; lore to know whether the two kinds will: suit well together. I hope they will. If this meets the eye of any one who knows to the contrary, I hope he will inform me, as I am getting too old to run the risk of ma- king many more mistakes. When I shall have tried the carp I may some day report results, ; W.R. FRALEY. ne i 8 The Vote on Prohibition. \ For. Against.

In consequence tlre prices of those prodacts, whtich eon- stitate the food of man and beast, are ad- vancing in price with every indieatbion that they will continue to advance 'motil they reach a figure that will make the daily suppKes no easy watter to the la- boring classes. The following, which we clip from the Athnta Constitution of yesterday, will give some idea of the extent of damage done by the drouth in the West, the great grain-growing and meat producing sec- tion of the country: . The steady advance in bog and bom- iny during the few days just past has been the leading subject of discussion among our people. Some thought it was foreed up by corbers, and frequently one cause and then another was given for the ‘advance. On investigating the subject the true reason for the rapid advance is apparent to every thinking man. We have had during the summer all over the United States.an unprecedented drought. It has affected the corn crop ia the West more than any erop for years. The news from all parts of the West indieates a ve- ry sbort erop of corn.. Yesterday wé met Mr. Jobn N. Dunn, of the firm of Dunn, Alexander & Co., who has just returned from a trip north and west. Mr. Dann went from here to New York, and from there to Canada, re- turning home by way of Detroit, through Chicago and throught the States of Ili- noise, Kentucky, Tennessee to Atlanta. In conversation with a representative of the Constitution yesterday, he said: “The dry weather has litterly burnt up the corn in the greater part of the coun- | try through which I passed. I was in- formed also by the train men and Pullwan conductors who rnn between Cairo and New Orleans that the corn crop was whol- ly ruined by the drouth all the way from Illinois down to New Orleans. I saw | thousands of acres of corn in the heart of the State of Hlivois which could not yield a peck of corn to the acre. In Western Kentucky, west Teuvessee aud middle Tennessee the prospect is some better, bat one-fourth of the usual yeild will cer- tainly be as much as will be honsed of the corn crop of 1881. The corn crop of the United States was never before so completely blasted.” “How are prices in view of the fuilure in the crop 2” “The present appreciation in’ bread- stnffs is an evipence of the fact that the American people do vot realize the ex- |tent of the deprivation which is looking | them in the face. From what 1 can learn ‘Indiana has suffered almost’ as muchas | Illinois, and 1 am convinced that the Key Secrest is a brother of Hoke | blasted sections of the West will need the entire surplus made in that part of the country.” “That will seriously interfere with the plans of the South, will it not?” “Yes, and next spring and summer we ust look only to the South for the lead- ing field crops. Itis the great duty of the farmers and planters of our section to grow all manner of crops this fall which will feed man or beast.” “Do you louk for fancy prices ?” “TI think corn in the city of Atlanta on the first day of March will be considered cheap at a dollar and a half a busbel and meat and flour will also goat fancy prices. The trath is, and I give it to you solely beeanse I feel that I onght to, that in the year 1382 the Sonth must bread the South.” Our advice to the laborer would be to begin to economize pow and prepare to meet the day of high prices which is not far off.

All these, and more of such thoughts inspired our party to seek the hefghts and delights of the “cloudlands” of Western Carolina. The party was composed of Miss Ada Viele and Miss Katie Hans of Albany, N. ¥., Theo. Buerbaunm, Chas. G. Viele and T. K. Bruner of Salisbary. There will be bo attempt to describe the scen- ery, but merely san idea of the places visited and how we got there. : The first places of importance reached were “Blowing Rock” and “Fair View” in the County of Watauga. These are both fine views, commanding a large scope of country ov both sides of the Blue Ridge. They are the finest views in the State to be obtained with so little trouble and ex- pense. Near one hundred summer board- ers are now enjoying the fine scenery, milk, butter and houey of this section for from $12 to $15 per month. From either of these points the principal heights of this aud some of those in other States are visible. From Fair View, we turned our course toward the Roan, some sixty miles distaut. We took our time, as the old sayiug goes, stopping at “Valle Crucis” Falls and the Cranberry Iron Mine on our way. We hitched our teams about a quarter of « mile from the falls and started out on foot in search. After an hours’ walk we asked a farmer were the falls were and how fat to the spot. ‘You have passed them abonta mile and a half—just go back to the big log and take the left.” We did sv and got left. The next enquiry revealed the fact that we had goue two miles tothe left. We went back to the big log, took down the creek and found the falls within 300 yards of that big log. We were too mad toenjoy falls. It wasa pretty cascade falling some 90 feet over a precipice of solid stove. Satisfyiug ourselves of the identity of the place, we returned to the terms and enjoyed lunch. * * On Saturday evening we left the house of Mr. Boyce, just at the foot of the Roan aud made the asceut on foot; (send- ing the teams around to the Johvston city road on the opposite side of the moun- tain, to join us.) It is only 5 miles from Boyce’s to the Cloudland Hotel, but the ascent ia very steep. The altitude gain- ed in this distance is about 3.400 feet, 1000 feet of which is gained iu a quarter ofa mile. The party reached the hotel in three hours, which was considered re- marhably good time--especially for ladies. Contrary to calculations they stood the trip better than their cscorts. Fortu- nately the evening was clear—the view te AE} vom, wo Ha ht pig heaven began to roll, each boom coming steep path in again, aud then did the town, ° °¢ ‘foot o'cld ne to gathefan@ darknesscameeu. “There is a storf a brewing” a passer. by said. It was true, but we were going to Widow rej Pattou’e-without fail. The aspeet above was tlireatening ‘indeed. The clowde var fiat came black ‘and the awful artillery of heaver and’nearer. Now we are envel- oped -in the very cloud itself which has sank to the yalley and seems resting on the besom of the earth. The rain pours im torrents. Anon a lurid flame of lightning flashes ath wart our path reveal- ing dangers yet to be encountered. * * Passing a house, we enquired the dia- tance to Mre, Patton’s. A voice from the darkness suid: “Three miles and:a halt.” Tho next flash revealed the form of a man Teating the way. It proved to be one of the Pattou boys. We were suug and dry and felt easy with young Patton ahead. Afraid! -who! of what! why ceriainly nct. But the ladies kept sing- ing the mogt.tender selections of Moody aud Sanky’s Hy mus, and the boys could not help humming the bass. The sing- ing: was’ fiovally interrupted by a thunder bolt which seemed to shake the foundations of the very hills—yet they sang on; not becanse they were afraid, but because they liked to sing. * * Mrs, Pattou stood holding a lamp in the door, and says she: “Charlie, who in the name of common sense is them fulks with you in this yer rain—why even the bears creep in nights like this!” Chartie answers: I donno any ’cept B—— what was here a couple a year ago.” The old woman’s face broaded intoa grin, and she remarked rather suggestively: “I ‘lowed !” Setting down her lamp she put a flood of questions about all the Salis- bury folk who had visited: the place for years back. 3 * * On MonJar morping onr party was up and ready by seven o’clock,—the pack horses and guide stood = waiting ucar the door. Of coarss we took “Charlie” as guide, fur he it was who led as through the storm; although Mrs. Patton said “her Charlie was a_ scatter brain kind’r fellor and keered nothin for buok Tarvin ; bat Eddie—my youngest soa—my baby —he likes books. He is always a tink- erin with some kind’r book rother an ’r cifferin onto a slate ’r a making of these yer little birds what the writin master gives to his favorite gas=ho aint cut ont for the farm—he takes to larnin, he does.” Now Charlie kept the reputation bis wother gave him; for it is trne that he could not vot point out and name cor- rectly on tenth of the hill tops in view ; but he kept: good fires and made fair coffee. The young hidies had iusisted on walk- ing, but for their extra saddle horse was provided. That extra | convenicece an horse (id) not carry an empty saddle a mile before the lady who had never been on a borse, was on. That extra saddle horse proved a blessing. From Mrs. Pattur.’s to Mitehell’s Peak is just ten miles—a live of street cars woald not work well. The road -- path—dry branch bed, or what ever you may call it, is the most rugged, roagh, twisted and America—this part of {that county to® one-fourth the. ordinary was sublime; far exceeding the ex- pectations of the party, four of whom gazed for the first time on those majestic hills in all their granduer and beauty. The suv had just sunk below the West- ern horizon, leaving a halo of golden light which, reflected on the higher peaks, gave them velvety green crests, and gradually deepene i to a deep, dark blue in ths Jower valleys. Description bog- gars the scene. The Roan is in the ex- treme western part of Mitchell County —iu fact the line between this State and Tenn. passes directly over ita length. It is 6,391 feet high, and from its isolated position furnishes one of the fuest moun- tain views iv the United States. The view is very extensive—ove looks into seven States from this exalted spot. The average summer temperature is from 50 to 70 degrees, thougi the thermometer registered as low as 47° at lO o'clock a. in. during our stay. Sunday morning brought rain in abun- the streams, This delayed our teams— when they arrived on Tuesday wo found everything wet. The whole fix went into wash, Fromm the teams several bolts were lost, a dash board off and a spring broken.~ ‘Necessity is the mother of in- vention,” bnt not of bolts, dash boards and springs—we had to tie up, there being ho other help. On the next day we left our pleasant quarters, bade farewell to our mavy new and pleasant acquaintances and started toward Asheville. Our next objective poiut was Mitchell’s Peak on the Black. It wasa rough road and that broken spring coutinued to make trouble. "We had it welded once, twice, thrice and all to no avail. There was no other chance, we had to come to it—the utilizing quali- ties of the rail we mean. One of the par- ty was opposed torails. He had a hank- ering after leather straps, bits of string arid ‘tarred rope, but’ jt was uo good, the rail had to come. It saved us. We re- commend the rail to all distresed travel- ers. Atone of the blacksmith shops at which we applied for help,«we found the following tools:—it’s easier to gay what we did not find—in place ot an anvil a large rock was used; the-hand hammer weighed seven pounds.— Frere was no sledge—in fact, no other tools. Yet this place was set up fora blackemith shop. - fThe conventional. horse shée was burnt on the door, and there was a éhain with which to tie refractory mules. * At Asheville we all felt like we had * year, Funeral Wednesday. dance which occasioned the swelling of America, at least. Itisa trying tip for amule. The fat man (202 eh!) of the party by accident caught hold of a pack horse’s tail—it was solid comfort! it lessened the labor and enabled him to keep up. Would you think ir! In less than ten minutes the leaner ones of the party had adopted the fat man’s idea. There is nothing comical about that. The front horse has a pack of blankets on its back anda man swinging to its tail; the second horse bears the lady: who never was ona horse before, aud a man at the helm; the third horse carries bags of provisions, baskets &c., and Mr. and Miss—swiuging to its tail. How do you like it, eh} We laugh when we thiuk of it now. There was no view of any consequence until we xeached the sumumit of Mitchell’s Peak, 6,711 feet abovo the level of the sea. The clouds were high and the view Enhanced by the beautiful overhanging canopy. There is something peculiarly awe inspiring about the view from this point. One seems to look down au “Table Rock,”-“Hawks Bill,” the distant Unakas, Great Smokey, Yellow, Ball and Tron Mountains. As the evening sun be- gan to gild the outline of the far distant hits; the ctonds began to sink and soon filled the valleys. Directly the view was shat off and the moist, chilling cloud came rolling gn us until in its midst we could not distinguish an object at fifteen paces. Alone, with profound reveren- tial fear, migled with admiration ivspir- ed by the sublimity of the grand and gorgeous panoramic view just passed from our gaze, we wended our way slowly and thoughtfally to the ‘Cave of the winds.” Here we were to spond the night, Then the scene changes: a cheer- ful blaze from the balsam camp fire lit our envern, “scatter brain Charlie” was busy with the coffee, After supper the usual camp fire jests, jokes and bear stories were told, 4 An arrangement had been made on the Roan to havo fires lighted at 9 o'clock ; we to return the signal by rockets provi- ded for the occasion. This scheme failed for two reasons: the clond on the meun- tain, and the failure of our notification to reach the Roan in time. Weenjoyed our pyratechnical display and. returned to camp. _ . Next morsing the cloud had passed away ; the deeper valleys were filled with snowy mist which seemed to - be set in motion as the first glimmering rays of tain. * * Mgantwio station in order to pass over % wonderful nine wiles of road, and through the seven tannele between that ‘point “and Old Fort; where” they again joined the teams. Catawba Falls, five miles» from Old Port was. next visited, where the ladies ¢ompleted. their collee- tion of ferns: The. journey homeward was made along the line of the West. N.C. Railroad to Hickory, where we turned toward Taylorsville. The ladies were gneste of the Rey. Thos. G. Thurs- ton of that place. That gentleman kind- ly received. the pasty «and -entertained them with a turkey supper. * * A great deal mure anijght be. said, bat the foreguing gives,an ites. May all our readers enjoy such a trip. One of the results of the “great ivdus- toy” tp Yadkio county. is that the distil- leries in that county have dietilled every bushel of corn they can get into whiskey, aud now are buying. all the. wheat they can get.

We said 354 cubie yards of stone had been removed from the chan- bel of the river, where as that is the work done only daring the month of August, and the whole amonnt is 1,586 cubic yards. Again the 1,000 cubic feet per nsonth, should have been 1,000 cubic yarda.—Charlotte Observer, aia ee accent e Whilst snpporting the abstract merits of prohibitiog, we have niade no atlusion to the unfortunate forin in which it was presented to the people. The friénds of the question were disarmed fvoin the tart. But the action of some men in eon vection with the measure will not pass out of memory so soon as will its defeat. The bill regulating the traffic, a bill that would have accomplished everything the prohibitionists wanted, which infringed on bo private right, which alarmed no popular sentiment, which threatened no personal privilege, passed the House by a large majority and was then defeated in the Senate by the opposition of friends of prohibition because that bill did not go far enough in ita restrictive provisions. Yet we find those ultra moralists arrayed on the side of the anti-probibitionists by act and word and speech, doing their ut- most to defeat the very bill they bad pushed through as the substitute for the one obnoxious te their extreme moral sensibilities, and crowning their name by voting against it. Verily, these men will have their reward.—Durham Recorder. ——---em>e —— Maj. S.S.

I think though, the most practicable route and likely the most direct on actual survey would be by Taylorsville. Tenn., through the Cut-Laurel or Haker’s Gap of the Stone Mountain range by Jefferson, and through the Reddies River Gap of the Blue Ridge and then tothe Yadkin River and the above route to Salisbury. This route has already been surveyed, some years ago through this gap in the Stone Mountain and found very practica- ble, and the Reddie’s River Gap is certrin- ly the lowest one in the Blue Ridge fora great many miles in cither direction, and i this route would run in the vicinity of a | number of iron properties, and would cross the Ridge between and -close to both the Ore Knob and Copper Knob copper mines, and would, in my opinion be much the cheapest route over which a road could be built between these given points. I throw out these suggestions, Mr. Editor, for the benefit of those interested, and hope that they may profit by them, and I will be sat- isfied to sustain a road built on either line suggested, PROVINCIAL. a +>?

[As Mr. W.d.Best has given notice that he intends tétentést the title to the owner- ship of the Western North Carolina Rail- road with the present managers, we publish the following agreement entered into be- tween im and ‘them, thatioqut teddérs may form some intelligent epinion of the status of the case and what Mr. Best founds his “*, By act ute General Agsembly of North Carolina, #atified the 29#h Gay of March, 1889, the interest of the State in and to the Western NortirCarolina Railread was di- rected to be sold and transferred to Messrs. New York, upon conditions and stipula- tions well known to the public. Sixty days frem said 29th day of March was the limit of time in which the contract directed by the sajd act to be entered into by and onthe part of. the State with the said Best,,Fish & Ca, grantees, should be signed sesgled.and delivered, &c , and the said railroad preperty duly-transferted. After the ratification of said act, Messrs. Fish, Tappan and Grace, for reasons at least sufficient to themselves, decided to withdraw from the association, which left Mr. Best alone to assume the Contract. It is well known, for it was frankly avowed by Mr. Best, that these three gentlemen were tu furnish the indoney necessary td assume und carry ‘out the contract, he having no capital, at least for such an undertaking. For matters to have thus remained no centract could have been made, the proper- ty (‘clephant” as it was alarmingly cal!cd) would have remained in the control of the State with appropriations for its construc- tion repealed, and the entire work of the extra session gene for nought. To avert this result, and ~save the con- tract, It was necessary the stipulations and agreement, as directed in the act should be signed, and entered into onor before the 29th day of May following the ratification ofthe act. | The 27th day cf May had arrived and Mr. Best had failed entirely to enlist other capitalist who-were willing to take the places of Messrs. Fish, Tappan and Grace. At the solicitation of Mr. Best, Messrs. Clyde, Logan and Buford, officers and part owners of the Richmond & Danville corpor- ation, agreed to advance to Mr. Best the money necessary to repay Fish, Tappan and Grace for their outlay, and to meet the first instalment due the State for convict labor and for interest on the bonded debt of the road, and thus save the contract. Messrs. Fish, Tappan and Grace thereupon assign- ed their interest in the contract to Mr. Best, and Mr. Best entered into the follow- ing agreement with Messrs. Clyde, Logan and Buford: (All my facts, dates and _ figures relative to the act and the contracts are taken from the official record of these tranactions, made and published by the last Legislatare.) | AN AGREEMENT MADE THI8 TWENTY-SEVENTH DAY OF MAY, 1880, BETWEEN WILLIAM J. BEST, PARTY HERETO OF THE FIRST PART, AND WILLIAM P. CLYDE, THOMAS M. CLYDE AND ALGERNON 8. BUFORD, PARTIES HERETO OF TIE SECOND PANT. Whercas an ‘act was ‘passed by. the Gen- cral Assembly of North Carolina, and duly ratified on the 29th day of March, 1880, en- titled “An act to provide forthe sale of the State’s interest in the Western North Caro- lina Railroad Company, and for others pur- poses,” which act gnd all the several pro- visions thereof are herein referred to with the same force and effect as if the said act was fafly recited lierein. And whereas it is alleged by the party hereto of the first part and assumed by the parties of the second part, and. the parties who in said act are designated “grantees,” have done cach and every act by said stat- ute required of them except to reorganize the said Western Nortlr Carolina Railroad Company, asin the Sth section of said act provided for. And whereas it is represented to the par- tics of the second part that in order to render the said reorganization effeetual, it is neces- sary to raise the sum of fifty thousand dol- lars and apply thé same to various purposes in the said act provided for, and;that with- out the payment thereof,’ said /reorgniza- tion and the many benefits to the people of the State of North Carolina intended by said act would fail. Now this witnesseth that the partics hereto, in consideration of one dollar by each to the other paid, and of the mutual stipulations and agreements herein con- tained, do covenant and agrce as follows: First. The parties hereto of the second part, (hereinafter in this agreement called “assiznees,”) agree forthwith, when requir- ed, to furnish the said sum of fifty thousand dollars to be applied to the purposes the said act provided for. Second. The said party of the first part, (hereinafter in this agreement called “the said Best”) agrees that the proper step shall ba taken satisfactory to. the said as- signel to reorganize the said Western North Caroljna’ Refitosd so that it shall have all the rights aed powers, direttors and officers necessary fo exercise the pow- ers of a corpyration, - Theirs The éaid Best shall, procure to be duly executed and delivere] to the, as- signecs, an essignment of alfthe sights, \ W.

The said assignees agree to as- _sign-to thesaid Best, ou his demand, all. ! the rights and franchises, property and es- tate “which shall have been assigned to them, on the following. conditions : “He shall make ¢uch demand withiwnincty days from thé date.tiedief, Tdalia!l, amcar-be- forse making sath detiiandypay tb’ the same ‘and interest thereon at the rateof six per | cent. per annum, and any reasonable‘and necessary outlay and expenses, which the | grantces may have paid or incurred in this , Matter, and as such assignees. He shall prior to said demand, have made arrangements satisfactory to the assignees on behalf of | the said company, to insure the finishing | of the railroad of said Western North Caro- | lina Railroad Company to its western ter- ' minus, at Paint Rock, on or before the first day of July, 1881. He shall also, before ‘said demand, execute and deliver to the | assignees, or to the Richmond & Danville Railroad Company, bis guarantee that the traffic arrangements between the last men- ‘tioned road and the said \Vestern North ‘Carolina Railroad Compan: , approved by said Best and the president of said Rich- mond & Danville Railroad Company, and now in possession of said president, shall be faithfully carried out by said Western North Carolina Railroad Company, and shall not be changed or annulled except by the mu- tual consent of the said companies. He shall, on or before making said demand, give to the assignees one-half of the steck designated in said act as stock set aside for the benefit of theprivate stockholders of the Western North Carolina Railroad Com- pany, whicb he now owns, or has the option to purchase, and duly transfer said one- half to them on their paying him one half of the sum he shall have actually paid therefor, being at the rate of about fifty thousand dollars for the whole of $212,500 of private stock in said act provided for. Fifth. Nothwithstanding anything here- in contained, the said assignee sball on such demand being made by said Best, as in the fourth article of this agreement provided for, have the option and right to retain one- half interest in the rights, franchises, prop- erty and estate aforesaid and to assign to the said Best the other halfonly, and to accept from said Best one-half only of said sum of fifty thousand dollars and interest, and one- half only of said reasonable and necessary outlay and expenses in’ said fourth article referred to. But to entitle themselves to retain the said one-half interest, they shall assume one-half of any liabilities and bur- dens incurred by said Best in respect to said Western North Carolina Railroad, so that said assignees and the said Best shall be equal sharers inthe property aforesaid, and in said Best’s obligations and burthens in respect thereto. Sixth. Should the said Best be unable to entitle himself tothe right provided for by the fourth and fifth articles of this agrec- ment, or neglect todo so,andshould the said Best unite with the assignees, their as- sociates or assigns, in building the railroad from Asheville to Paint Rock, he shall, even though all the money necessary to complete said work be raised by or through the said asignees and their associates or assigns, be entitled to five-twelfths of all the preferred or common stock which may have_ been re- ceived by the assignees or their assigns, and of all other benefits and advantages derived from the assignment to them in the third article of this assignment provided for, and the same shall be conveyed to him.

Clyde, Logan and Buford, by letter, of his inability to raise funds elsewhere, and as other money would very soon be needcd te meet obligations to the State and carry onthe work on the road, that gentleman finally induced Messrs. Ciyde, Logan and Buford to assume the entire contract, and ‘entered into the following agreement and full assignment, which bears date July 31st, 1880. It is as follsws: “THIS AGREEMENT MADE THE THIRTY-FIRST DAY OF JULY, EIGHTEEN HUNDRED AND BIGHTY, BETWEEN W. J. BEST, PARTY OF THE FIRST PART, AND WILLIAM P. CLYDE, T.M.

CappaGan.” I have inserted the contracts in full in order that the people of the State who are invoked tositin judgment upcn the re- cent transactions concerning the Western North Carolina Railroad may have the full est opportunity for a free, unbiased and in- telligent opinion. It will be observed that ig the two con- tracts above cited it was agreed to assign to Mr. Best five-twelfths of thecapital stock —seven thousand five hundred shares, rep- resenting seren hundred and fifty thousand dollars worth of stock—as a consideration for his trouble, time, expenses, etc., in get- ting up the measure and for the assignment of his interest in the contract to Messrs. Clyde, Buford and Logan. Thus Mr. Best tranferred, “ without reser- vation” of any character, save the seven thousand five hundred shares of stock, all tions therein recited were entered into by! ssid parties, under which the said partics of the second part undertook to pay and advance'to the party’ of the first part the sun of fifty thousand dollars for the consid- eration and purposes, and with the condi- his rights, title, interest, benefits, cte., in and to the Western North Carolina Rail- road to Messrs. Clyde, Logan and Buford. As if to separate bimself the more fully from the read, save as relates to the stock, Mr. Best, in September following, presented road, that a further considerable sum of 4 or before the Ist day.of Mareh, 1881:> NE eta of expenses incurred while negetiating for the purchase of the rosd, which account was paid, as per following agreement : . “MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT EXTERED INTO IN NEW YORK, AT THE GRAXD CEN- TRAL HOTEL, ON THE 80TH SEPTEMBER, 1680, BETWEEN THE PURCHASRES OF THE WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA RAILROAD.

The old style of doctors used to bleed the arms of patients. The new style bleed their pockets. The change however issin favor of life. The wealthy man walks out to get an appetite for his breakfast, and the tramp to get a breakfast for his appe- tite, and thus the world rolls on. A man who was formerly a night watchman refers to it as his late oc- cupation, “What a blessing it is,” said a hard) working Irishman, “that night niver ‘comes on till late in the day, when a man is tired and can’t werk at all, at all!” The Pullman Car Company em- ploys four thousand men; pays them $175,000 per month, and provides schools, gymnasiums, reading rooms and churches for the employes, but no saloons will be permitted in the town. e Good judges estimate that the defi- ciency in the cottofi crop this year will be 500,000 bales —that is to say, the total] product will be 5,800,000 in- stead of 6,300,000 bales as in 1880. Uncle Samuel Tilden is coming to the front, evidently, as the leader of the Democratic hosts. If the Presi- dent should die, most unfortunately for the country, as there is now, alas, too much probability of being the case, Mr. Conkling will be the leader of the opposition. In both cases the New York, and not the “Ohio idce,” would dominate.— Wilmington Star. ee aa The New York World announces that the Richmond and Danville Extension Com- pany has taken the contract for building all the breaks in the line of the Georgia Pacitic Railroad between Atlanta and the Mississippi River. The road runs through Columbus, Inka and Aberdeen. About 500 miles are yet to be constructed, and work is to begin at once.—Nevcs-Obserter. gay ne This way of a newspaper starting up every now and then and trying to reform the spelling of the country by producing four pet words in its columns, is rather a failure. Vhe Baltimore American is one of this sort. It exercises its chief strength on refurmivg programme. It delights in parading it as program. Our devil says the way to pronounce it is prog-ram, accent on both syllables with emphatic deliberation.—W ilmington Star. We think one of the teachers at the County teacliers institute in this place, also gave it pro-gram and said that was the style. el me The Boston Herald rejoices in the discov- ery that Mr. Bacon, Speaker of the Georgia House of Representatives, confesses that “the Democratic platform consists only in opposition to Republicans— but why no one can tell.” The converse of the Speaker's confession is certainly true—that the Re- publican platform consists only in opposi- tion to Demecrats—and why—no one can tell.” The Republican party is the ally of repudiation at the South, and the Herald can find in that no reason for opposing it. The Republican party at the South is the party of oppression and disorder and lawlessness, and the Herald can find in that no reason for opposing it. The Republican party is the party of wrong and outrage, bent on tearing down Anglo-Saxof civili- zation in the South and building on it African barbarism, and the Herald can find in that no reason for opposing it. ‘Thank Heaven tliere aro men who know their duty to society,to government, to civilization ; and one of these daties con- morning and with a corn-stalk” across the grounds “Charge!

The eating world will have occasion to throw up its cap if the discovery late- ly Announced that cotton seed oil is “a most satisfactory substitute for lard” be confirmed. I hope it is true, for the sake especially of the urany housekeepers who are sorély tried in their cooking by that prodnet of the swine, which, like batter, varies in the .quality, and whose odor, when sizzing in the frying pan, awakens in the imaginary kitchen goddess vissions of pent up, garbage-fed and slimy pork- ers and perhaps a notion or two of trich- ine snugly ensconced on the cozy vesicles. No one is afraid of good vegetable oil. lis impressions are cool and historic and agrecable. It whispers of dewy meadows, refreshing breezes, sweet aromas, and so on. But lard! Everything it suggests is heating and exasperating. However, more to the point: Col. Nelson, of Huntsville, Ala., says he has repeatedly used cotton seed oi) at his house, and finds it equal to the best article of lard. A hotel keeper at Mem- phis publishes a statement to the same effect. It has been tried by several citi- zens of Tuscumbia, Ala., who say that they can find no difference between the oil and lard’ as an article for cooking.

New York, July 23 1881. ——- - +--+ Conference of Stalwarts, URGING VICE-PRESIDENT ARTHUR TO EXER- CISE THE DUTIES OF PRESIDENT. New York, August 19. -The following facts have leaked out in regard to the con- ference at Vice-President Arthur’s house for the past few days, in which Grant, Conk- ling, Logan, Cameron, Dorsey, Kelknap, Jones, Bliss, French, Ward and many other conspicuous adherents of the third-term wing of the Republican party have partic- ipated. The fact of such a gathering while the President is lying at the point of death has occasioncd considerable talk; but it seems that this conference of leaders was projected last week before the President's relapse became so scrious. The Vice-President was told that it was his duty to go to Washington and. declare his. purpose of exercising the duties of President. George Bliss, Attorney-General Ward and Mr. Conkling gave legal opinions upon the constitutional clause in favor of the Vice-President thus assuming control. As a result of the conference it was agreed that the matter should be held in abeyance for the present, until it shall be determined whether the President will survive his re- lapse or not. In the meantime the opinions of two of the best known constitutional lawyers inthe country—one a Democrat and the other a Repubtican—have been‘ sought by friends of the Vice-President, and will be presented to his notice at an early day. All the persons present at the confcrence were unanimous in the opinion that it was the duty of Mr. Arthur te assume control. It is said on good authority that Postmas- ter General James aud Secretary Lincoln, who would carry the War Department, are favorably inclined toward the project. General Arthur is willing, provided Secre- tary Blaine would consent, and strong ef- forts are being made to obtain his consent. If the Vice-President becomes the acting President, the stalwarts think that they will have no trouble in carrying New York this year. A stalwart will be made Su- preme Court Judge in place of Clifford, deceased, and another will be appointed Minister to Berlin, while many important offices will be filled to the advantage of their wing of the party. OS OO Flour aud all provisions have taken a rise, but cotton is not apt to follow the lead. The increased price is doubtless owing to speculation, and the South suffers from the sharp practice of the speculators.

The faonda- menfal principle of the bill is the right of free sale, the Irish land system being partly codified and partly rearranged in such a way asto give the tenant a marketable property in his halding, independent of any impréyements which he himself may have made. The other two F's, i. ¢., the guar- antces of fair rent and fixity of tenure, are deduced from the right of free sale. In the passage of the bill through Parliament it has undérgone notable alterations, seme of them being of censiderable importance. One is that the commission of three may utilize the services of the county courts; another that no member of Parliament shall at the same time bea member of the com- mission charged with e@f@rying the provis- ions of the bill into effect; a third sccures to owners their game rights; a fourth ge- cures the landlord pay for the imprtove- ments he has made in case a helding is sold; the fifth declares that dedue shall be made from the receipts of a sale for deterioration of the Jandiord's property. When the Lill reached the-Lords it suffered numcrous amendments, all of which were sct aside on its return to the Commens, ex- cept the one which struck out the prowis- ion to stay proceedings for collection of debt from tenants. When the bill wassent the second. time to the upper house the Lords exhibited great firmness, striking out again the features of the Lill to which they had before peice and exhibited a -dis- position which, if persisted in, would have forced the resignation of Mr, Gladstone and his cabinet. Much feeling in favor ‘of the stand taken by the Lords was now éx- hibited in unexpected quarters, and it; be- gan toscem not impossible that if the two parties Went before the country in a gengye neral election the conservatives would come ‘6ut victorious over the party at sin power. The immediate result of the Lemls’ firmness was a partial victory for the o nents of tbe bill, as Mr. Gladstone, on the return of the bill to the Honse of Commons, assented to three of the Lords’ amendiméhts —one authorizing an appeal te thetand court in the matter of lcases, another giving a landlord access to the land court ep he failed to come to an agreement with*his tenant, and the third striking out Mf/Bar- nell’s measure fer staying proceed of ejectment when the Jand court has asked by the tenant to fix a fair rent, Upon all points, however, touching the aa of the Lill the government was un . and the concessions made to the Lordewill not impair its fitness for being, in the, lan- guage of Lord Salisbury, “of great benefit to thetenants and not much harm to’the landlords.” The bill will take effect with- in a few days, as steps for gécuring the Queen's assent have already been taken,— Baltimore Sun, -———-~— >> -__ — Which is the Most Miserable?

The government at Washington has been aud go home believing that it is alt rigut ‘And yet it is not all right. They have robbing the people ever since its estsab- lishment. It has beeu doing this by a certain arrangement of tariffs laid on manufactured goods which the people are obliged to have. At the beginning of the government there may have been some excuse for it; but now, and for many years past, there is no excuse, Avy more than there would be for taking money out of the pockets of ninéty-nine cititens to put it into the pocket of the one-hun- dretb. It isthe duty of government to pass laws on the wasim of “the greatest good to the greatest number;” but our vovertment has, and continues, to carry out a system ‘exactly contrary to this: The many are taxed. to enrich the few. jeder the aperation of this system one small part of the country has grown rich, while the greater portion has grown poor. The many have been robbed aud the few made rich--so rich, in fact, that they can contribute millions of dollars to corrupt the ballot boxes of the people, and carry elections in their own iuterest, And this is the price which the people pay for not | earing anything about the tariffs which the government levics on the mereban- dise which they consume every year. It is a slow but sure process of enslavcment. The fat of the land is constantly drained by this system, and gocs to strengthen a power outside of the government, which will eventually become stronger than the government, and will rule it in defiance of the masses. For the further consideration of this subject we append the following: A Tariff Hurtful to the Farmer. We had somehow received the intpres- sion that the Charleston News and Courier was a protective tariff journal. We do not now remember how we formed that opin- ion, but if we had sct to work to classify our exchanges as to high tariff or free-trade we should have placed our Charleston con- temporery with the former. But in this we are probably mistaken, as_ its Tuesday’s paper has an editorial the purpose of which is to show that “the price of cotton is kept down by a protective tariff”. We appre- hend that there is no doubt of the correct- ness of this postulate. The Southern plan- ter cannot be benetitted in any way by a high protective tarff, In fact it is a specics of robbery to compel a farmer to pay an advance of from 13 to 73 per cent. on ar- ‘icles consumed or used by him just to benefit a few manufacturers. What right has any government to say that fifty m:llion people shall be taxed heavily that a few thousands of their fellow-laborers and i people and. : : have permitted this monstrosity to live. But here Charleston paper : of the present United States tariff it is an outrage, without decent defence. The rices are those of the war. Nothing but orance on the part of the American and a. general long-suffering spirit is another extract from “fhe “The tariff that keeps out foreign goods keeps in domestic goods. In order to en- able protected interests to get an artificial price for their products certain foreigners lose their best market ; and what is more, cettain persons at home lose their best market against the foreign-goods which are shut our. What right has the Govern- ment to take away this market from one citizen (who enly asks to be let alone to make profitable exehanges) in order to make an artificial matket for another citi- zen who clamors for government help. It cannot be questions? fp em that the pretec- tive tariff cramps and diminishes interna- tional trade. ‘This isa blow at the cotton planter, whose interest is in giving the whole world the largest means of buying his cotton.” , The tariff acts as a check upon trade generally. It is the special pet of New England, Pennsytvania, New : Jersey, and the manufacturing citics generally. It gives a heavy blow to the agriculturist while furnishing potent aid to the Northern manufacturer. The Southern planter who favors a tariff is ignorant of his.own inter- ests. He is agreeing that he and his fellow- citizens in the South shall be burdened from year to year with a grievous and in- tolerable tax int aad Pennsylvania ironmongers may grow that the cotton planters of th —Wilmington Star. a BIG RAILROAD QUESTIONS. —_—_ torney-General to examine into the man- agement the war, in order to see if forfeitures have been incurred, with request that legal stops be at ouce taken to have such for- feitures declared. suggested, has forfeited its charter.” these examinations except that if they are in the interest of the Best; Boston sy n- dicate, as against the Clyde-Buford syn- combination.

And yet it is nndeniably trac that the Richmond and Danville Company bave displayed great energy in pushing for- ward the work on the Western Road. When we consider the snail-pace of the the State’s operationshow long she fellow-citizens may realize very largely from some enterprises in which they are engaged or wish to engage ? What is the! many for the benetit of a few?) Who will dare say that? And yet practically that is precisely what the United States Congress is now doing. tended family. It took its origin in the Jife and management.of a private family. What just father will make five of his) children labor that the sixth may leccive| the chief benefit? Lord Bacon has said that “the surest way to prevent seditions is to take away the matter of them; for if! there be fuel prepared, it is hard to tell | whence the spark will come that shall set | it on fire.” A government, that should be parental and just in order to be respected and served, should not be so partial in its favors as to discriminate against the many for the benefit of a pampered few. The Louisville Covrier-Journal, a strong oppo- nent of the present unequal, iniquitous; un- just and oppressive tariff, puts the matter strongly iu the following paragraph : ‘It is right, just and proper to pay taxes for the support of the Government, State and National, and for the maintenance of charitable and reformatory and penal insti- tutions, but the justice and right of paying taxes to enable a few of our fellow-citizens to engage in certain kinds of business which they say will not pay them unless they are provided with means by their neighbors, are not yjsible nor can they be made visible to reflecting people. The people should pay taxes to the Btate only, not to a sect of their fellow citizens. Tariff taxation is a viola- tion of individual ‘liberty, and, as the Su- preme Court of the United States has de- cided in the Kansas case, it is robbery, pure and simple.’ This is sound and, we think, unanswera- bie. If it is correct to say that a high tariff depresses the price of cotton is itnot certain that the grower of cotton is injured thereby? The present tariff not only bur- for the benefit of a few, but it places a peculiar apd extra burden upon the South- crn plauter. Not only must he pay the high taxes levied by the tariffon all such articles as are usec in the country at large, but he receives special injury in the very article that enables him to buy—his cotton. The tariff strikes directly at the basis of his prosperity. It attacks him first in the price of cotton, reducing his income—his buying power. Jt next lays a heavy tax upon him in the purchase of every article that is used upon his farm. The editorial of the News and Courier is forceful and clear. It shows the origin of trade is exchange what you have for what some one else has, Trade is barter, but money is the tool used to facilitate trade, To buy, you must have means of selling. If you raise cotton you must be able to get it to market. If you get it to market and are well paid prices must be up. Anything that lowers, depresses the price of your product, injures you: If itis inthe shape of a tariff—a government tax—then such tax is burdensome, offensive.” It robs you of so mapy dollars. But let us quote It says, and from our Charleston neighbor. we ask the reader to scrutinize the argu- ment : “The intercst*of the Southern agricultu- rist is in maintaining and augmenting the price of cotton.

[From the Charlotte Observer.] A reporter of the Observer yesterday called Governor Vance, hoping to learn something of the action of the com- missioners of the Western North Carolina road at their meeting in Raleigh, Wedues- day. The scribe found the Governor ev- en more communicative on the affairs of. that much discussed corporation than his most sanguine expectations had led him ou to hope for. The reporter began by asking what ac- tion, if any, the cominissiouers had taken. “All tbat I can tell you for publica- tion,” he answered, ‘is that we officially notified Governor Jarvis, who is himself one of the commisioners, you know, that the assignees of the road were not com- ing up to the contract. We had refrain: cd from doing this before, but this tine we were all agreed.” “In what particulars do you accuse them of faNimg 7” “The officigl notification brings four separate charges : “Ist. In the Janguag¢ of the cantract they had not ‘prosecnted the work with 4 diligence and energy.’ “9d, They had failed to keep a force on the Ducktown branch suificient to complete the road to Pigeou River by the Ist of Jaly, thestinre in which they were required tv complete it by the contract. “3d. “Lhey failed to reached Pigeon River and Paint Rock by the Ist of July. 4th. They are daily discriminating against North Carolina tows and cities.” “What is the effect of this notice %” “Jt has no intrinsic force. The bill provides simply that the commissioners watch the progress of the work and re- port thereon to. the Governor. It pro- vides further that they shall make this notice before declaring a failare iu com- plying with the contract, aud even after such declaration the bill provides ninety dags of grace to the contractors or their assignees before the Governor shall take steps om behalf of the State to have the contract legally annulled, You know, of course, that the commissioners in the ca- pacity of commissioners have bo power to act; they only report officially to the Governor.” “I notice that in your statement of the commissioners’ charges, you speak of the Ist of July as‘the time on which their failure violates the limit allowed by the contrat. I know that that was the origi- nal time within which the completion to Pigeon River and Paint Rock was requir- ed, but the present controllers of the road claim, I understand, an extension of the time to the 15th of November.

Both, letters reached Raleigh ou the sae day, and Gov. Jarvis being “in ‘the ‘city received his: Mr. Bain, Drv Worth’s clerk, forwarded the letter to the Doctor, to Asheboro, where he was at the time. From his action I presume Colonel An- drews became aware of the letters and their purport, for he sent a messenger ou the same train which carried my letter to Dr. Werth. When tho train reached High Point Colonel Andrews’ messenger hired » horse and beat the mail to Ashe- Worth and obtained his signature. to an extension of time te the 15th of Novem- ber. When Dr. Worth got my letter you can imagine that he was not entirely complacent. But Governor Jarvis also having signed the grant, the claim. was thus originated by signatures of two of the commissioners, ove of them having beeu obtained in the fraudulent manuer described. We ignore that grant not only ov the groand of frand bat also from the fact that even its conditions have not been complied with, a suilicient number of hands to complete the lines to the pro- posed points not having been pat on the road within six wecks after the signing of “the grant of extension, which they claim as being legal.” “Does the original bill require that there shall be continually on the lines a sificient number of hands to insare the completion of the read within the time without relying on a large inerease of the force as the expiration of the time draws near %” “Yes; that isa condition, not only of the original bill, bat also of the grant of the extension, which the present controll- ers claim as operative. Jt may appear parely technical and unimportant to the casual examiner, but on the contrary it 18 a Wise provision of nneh importance, as it requires a constant and tangible guar- antee of the good faith and diligence of the assignees.” .

Among other things the comiissioners report injurious ‘discriminations against North Caroliva cities and towns. ‘The Govervor has for- warded to the assiguees a vopy of the re-: port, with notification that wiless all cause of complaiut be imiunediately re- moved, the whole power of the adminis: tration would be exerted to rectify the evil. ‘Nie Governor has called the attention of the Attorney-Geueral to the faet that the Richmovd & Danville Railroad has withdrawn all rates heretofore | made with the Atlantic and North Carolina Railroad, and requested him to examine the question of attacking the lease of the North Carolina Railroad by the Rich- mond and Danville.

Wherever such im- provements have been made, experience has shown that the) eonfer a substantial benefit on the community near them, and they have never failed to profit the own- er of the land. This being so, it is to be regretted much more of such work is not done. The immediate cost of such work is sometimes heavy, but once done the improvement is iuexpensive to keep up, and is a permanent behetit. We have heard of a considerable job of this kind just finished, on the lands of N. A. Lentz, near Gay’s Chapel: a ditch of half a mile in length, averaging 2x4 feet, clears up about 10 acres of land, estimated at $100 an acre, Which before, was only a nuisance to the neighborhood—a sort of gencrator of malaria. The work was done by Mr. Lentz and Mr. Cozort, who are owners of the property. They deserve the thanks of the neighborhood, and will doubtless realize a handsome reward for their heavy labor. E. 0.

E., went over the line of the proposed railroad from Statesville to Jefferson. About this time, Maj. Kirkland, their chief engineer had 9 leg broken, which retarded the work some. However, this gentleman is kept in communication by letter. These gen- tlemen express themselves as satisfied with the preliminary work so far, and also with what the people along the line propose to do in the way of indueements for the road—The people are enthusiastic and have promised every assistance in their power and have otherwise encour- aged the company with their good will. As soon as the line is located, contracts will be let, and the work of- construction will be pushed from both ends of the road. Dr. Eames says: ‘‘our first eastern termi- nus will be Statesville, but that it will finally terminate in Salisbury.” The prospects of the company are fine, and with their money and brain force the work will go vigorously forward. ‘ Of the companies wines, we can say that the to CROWELL on account of difficulty with stockholders, aud the superintendent’s being called away on railroad matters, has suspended operations for a short time.

There they registered in a hotel. Not being extravagant they had spent only $60 of the entire amount taken from Mr. Klein when they fell into the clutches of the officers of the law on ‘Tuesday last? Geopper, it is said, found em- ployment at his trade, which is that of a earpenter, and they were looking for rooms to set up housekeeping.

She was deeply penitent, and her husband went out af the po- lice station saying that he “would see about it,” meaning about forgiving his wife. Nat forgettul of her crex ture comfort, he subsequently sent to the station, by his little neice, a din- ver of broited chicken and other deli- cacies, After she had done ample justied to: thér~ husbaud’s hospitality she was condceted to a cell, in which she will stay until to-day, when the case will be called before Alderman Dimon, acting magistrate ip the ab- sence of Justice Bergen.

Two men of the county, in slavery times, went to Charleston, selling wagons, teams and freight ; they went to Augusta to haul to Rack- ersville, and then the bold idea of blacking and selling his companion entered the head of the more venture- some, aud was successfully carried out.

He applied to Mr. Kimball yesterday for space, stating that he would peéd at. lgast 1,200 square feet, as an exhaustive dis- play of the State’s resonrees would be In conversation witha Copsbtitu- tion man Mr, Wilson said : “Our instructions are to make a first- class exhibit, and see that North Caroli- na’s show is second to. that of no State represented atthe exposition, and we shall do this if possible. We have sent to various parts of the State for the lead- ing prodyets of North Carolina, including cotton, tobacco, jute, etc. Our State fair, which comes off on October lth. will bring together the finest agricultaral products of the State. These we shall have transported at the conclusion of the fair to Atlauta and added to our exhibi- tion here, and we will make a show that will astoniah the natives.” “Will yon not make a show of yonr woods and minerals ?” “We certainly shall. Of the 250 min- erals, North Corulina will be able to show 200, and we have almost every wood that ‘grows inthis country. We have now the finest State museum of woods and minerals iv the United States, and we shall bring this to- Atlanta bodily.

We nre in the midst of the grape sea- son,* and our market has been pretty well supplied froma few private gardens id and near Town. Mrs. Pearson and Mr. Jolu Beard have furnished most of © this Gelightful fruit, anda few others Lave contributed in less quantities. The Con- cord and Catawba are the leading varie- tics for table use. The Lincoln, alias Elsingburg, alias Lenvir, is also cultiva- ted to some extent, but chiefly relied ou us a Wine grape, for which purpose some grape raisers concede to it the frout rank. As it is proposed to speak of its nativity itis proper, as a means of defining it to say that the “Lincoln” is a black grape, makes large shouldered bunches, has small ‘berries compactly placed, sweet, with an “agreeable sub-acid. As late asthe year 1863 there was a popular belief in the town of Lincolnton and elsewhere, that this grape was a vative of Lincolnton Couuty, N.C. It was cultivated in Lineolnton mach earlier than 1863, but how long’ before is vot easily determined. Dr. Butts of that 'towu had the credit of having found it | growibg wild in that county, and of being | the first to cultivate and bring it to pablic lattention. Ile hada madgnificient vine lof itin the rear of the Butt’s Hotel, if memory is not at all fault, in 1843. How | long before that date he found it growing | wild iu the woods may or may not be an iwportant point in the question of its ‘nativity. After some years of fondly | cherishing the betef that it was indeed }a native of Lincolu county, of showing /it to others with all the pride men feel concerning such matters as reflecting ou the State, we were startled, one fine day in the summer of 1867, by a denial from | Dy. Kron, of Stanly county. We were | visitiug his viveyard for the purpose of | seeing his collection and learning some- | thing of his mode of planting, trimming, | training, &c., and finding that he had the | “Lincoln,” we recognized it by that name land claimed it asa native of the State. The Doctor spoke of its excellent quali- | ties, but demurred as to its nativity, as- leuring us that he had known it well in | Mrance before leaving that country. It is not now remembered when the Doctor emigrated to America, but itis kuown that he taught French to a class of young ladies in this town about the year 1825, Mra. Nat Boyden of this place being ove of his pupils. We presume it is safe to say that the Doctor's Knowledge of the “Lincoln,” which he aliared as above, runs back to 1816, which would give to the Lincoln. an age considernbly aute- dating Dr. Butt’s discovery of it in Lin- coln county ; for we think Dr. B. was not an old) man iu 1848, when his vineyard Was in its prime. But again, only last Thursday, Mr. Buerbaum of thia place, a native of Ger- many, Without knowing anything of this question of nativity, while cating “Con- cord,” had the “Lincoln” pointed out to him—tine half-pound bunches—and he quickly answered, ‘‘eh, yes, I know him ; a vine of it is now growing on my father’s barn”—in Germany ! Then it would appear from the testi- mony of Dr. Kron, of France, aud Mr. Buerbaum of Germany, that the “Lincoln” has for many years been well known inp those countries. Now tho question is, did it go from ns to them,or did it come from them to us? We are indebted to Mr. Buerbaum for a suggestion which may solve this ques- tiov. He adverted to the fact that Liucoln county was settled by Germans, and that the grape was brought by them to this country. sidered, which leaves nv reflection on Dr. Butts. His statement of having found it growing wild in the woods of Lincoln county is doubtless true. Both Lis statement avd the solution may be correct, though the former may explode the merits of the latter. In this country homesteads are of slfort duration, the most of them lasting only long enough to rear a family, and are then abandoned— give to the briar and brush, which soou pbliberate all traces of haman habitation. The vine may have been thas left in Lincoln county by some of the early set- to battle with the weeds and ters, * Auy one knowing @ cheap protection to grapes agdinet the epredatious of birds bond bees will confer a Lersft on the pab- rie Uy puUlishing it. ps ed, It isa solution, properly con- + { wild grapes of the country, by one with bo special knowledge of the general sub- ject, the most natural conclusion would be that it was a native variety. Without further evidence of the claim that the “Lincoln” is anativeof North Carolina, it must be admitted that is not well sustained. REPLY TO SENATOR VANCE. THE OTHER SIDE. OF THE QUESTION. The-Président of the- Western, North Caro- >. Jina Railroad Presenis His Side of the Case, whick Proves that One Story is Good till Another is Told. : Western Nortu CAROLINA RaiLRoaD CoMPAXY, PRESIDENT’S OFFIE, Raei@s, N. C., August 29, 1881. To the Editor of The Charlotte Observer. In your issue of the 27th instant you publish au interview with, Senator Z. B. Vance, one of the ‘commissioners ap- pointed to examine the work” on the Western North Caroliua Railroad, which contains grave charges against me, both asa map and an officer of the Western North Carolina Railroad Company. It would be easy to brand his charges of fraud as false; but 1 prefer to submita plain statement of facts to the people of North Carolina and to leave them to judge between us. The main question upon which we are at issue is whether the “extension of time” granted to Messra. Clyde, Logan anu Buford, by Governor Jarvis and Dr. Worth, in May last, was obtained by frand, and whether I, who represented those gentlemen in that transaction, am the person who committed the alleged fraud. Senator Vance says: ‘The claim to the extension is founded in fraud ;” again “that the claim was obtained from one of them,’ Dr. Worth, “io a frandulent manner;? and still again that “we ignore the graut on the ground of fraad.”) Then asif anticipating that some lawyer iu North Carolina might have (he presamp- tion to. deny the conclusion towhich he has come, or might dare. to doubt the ac- curacy of his legal judgment, he adds by way of denunciation of this imaginary foe, that ‘no lawyer who knows the cir- cumstances will ever honestly give a favorable opinion as to the legal or pres- ent operation of the instrument by which the extension they claim was granted.” It is true that the Senator, after sleep- ing on his words, has deemed it prodent to make the corrections of the ‘inter- view” ina “card” which he peblishes in the Observer of the 28th; but there has been no retraction or qualification of the charges of fraud which he made in the first publication. Iam compelled there- fore to furnish the facta, and publish the documents to the people of the State that they may have atrue history of this matter. On the 29th day of March, 1830, the Legislature of North Carolina passed an ‘‘Act to provide for the sale of the State’s interest in the Western North Carolina Railroad,” and Mr. Best aud his asso- ciates became the purchasers of that in- terest “on condition that they would commence work in two months (by the 29th of May, 1880,) and that among oth- er things they would pay the semi-an- pual interest on the tirst mortgage bonds of the road. Mr. Best found himself uuable to raise this money, and finally on the 3ist day of July, 1880, four monthe after the pasa- age of the act, he formally assigned all his rights under the contract to W. P. Clyde, A. S. Buford and T. M. Logan, for the consideration of 7,500 shares of stock of the face value of $750,000. Tho assignees were induced to come to the rescne of Mr. Best at this late day by svlicitations and assurances from promi- nent gentlemen iu North Carolina who felt great apprehensions at the threaten- ed failure of this scheme. These gentlemen, Messrs. Clyde, Logan avd Buford, began work on the road and made some progress before the wiuter of 1880-81 sat in, but they evcouutered two obstacles which inthe lauguage of the act very greatly ‘“hiadered and de- layed” their operations and for which “they were in no wise responsidle.” First: The State, in the above cited, stipulated as one of the couditions of the sale, “That during the coustruction of said railroad, and uutil the same shall be completed, said State shall furnish, to said grautees or their assigns xot css than fire hundred ablebodied convicts.” the work was correspondingly retarded, Secoudly : The winter of 1830-'31 was | the severest ever known in the history of the State, the thermomejer at times sinking to 12 degrees below zerg, and it was more than haan vature could en- dure to te exposed inv the work of con- ' struction during etch weather. Shortly after the beginning of the work, and from time to time thereafter demand was mado upon the State for ths conple- These convicts were not furnished, and | 23d section of the act provides: : “That should the grantees or their as- siguesa be hindered or delayed by any cause fot which they are MNO wise Te- aponsible, then the said ¢otmissioners for the completion of said Hines of read.” : As President of the Westerd » North Carolina railroad, acting ’ wider thead- vice of the assignees, I deterittined to ap- ply to the commissioners for an “exten- sion of time,” assaming ‘tlist’l was n- titled to it asa matter of right aed tliat it was the duty of the commis b grant fr, aif Tsippoee® their pleasure tu do so undet the cirenm: ces. On Friday, the 80th day of April, 1881, I presented to the commissioners a petition asking for said extension. I append below a copy. of that petition marked “A.” The commissioners after consideration returned it to me, with a memorandum in Gov. Jarvis’ handwriting of the amend- went which they required before grant- ing the extension. It is as follows: “The additional laborers referred to in this communication will be employed aud put upon the work as soon as the labor can be employed at reasonable com- pensation, either in hived labor or by contract, and of this six hundred addi- tional laborers or their value in contracts we will employ at least ove-balf on the Dacktown line, and will keep a safficient force on said line to complete it to Pigeon River by the time required by the con- tract asextended by this application. But itis distinetly understood that this extension if granted shall not affect any other provision of the contract.” It was further demanded by the com- missiouers that the petition should be sigued by Messrs. Clyde, Logan and Buford instead of the President of the Western North Carolina Railroad. | 1 rendily accepted these amendments and ‘all of the commissioners agreed that when the petition was thus amended they would grant the extension. IT asked the commissioners at the time to sign their nanics to this memorandum, to which Senator Vance replied, “Can't you take our word?” J did! Although one of the assiguces lived in New York, it was only seven days from this time, te wit, Saturday, May 7th, when I returned with the petition sigued by allof the assiguees, aud with the “memorandum” jucorporated in it word for word. The next day was Sunday. On Monday, May 9th, vine days after the mecting, I presented the petition for eatcnsion to Gov. Jarvis, one of the com- missioners, who examined it aud said it was just a8 the commisa o..ers 1equired it, and as svon as they met they woald sigao the grant of extension previously ugreed upon, Aay further delay therefore in siguing the extension was due to the comipissiouers, uot to myself. I had per- formed strictly what I promised, aud was waiting for them to complete their prom- ise. The intimation that the ‘‘coutroll- ers” whom I represented ‘were procras- tinating to gain time,” upon which alone Senator Vance bases the withdrawal of his assent to the grant of extensivn, is unworthy of the Senator, and is as absurd as itis unfounded; for bow could any time be gained, when in any event the extension was to date from July Ist? It is upon a grade with his italicised asser- tion “that the original bill and the grant of exteysion required that there shall be “continually” on the lives a sufficient uumber of hands to insure the comple- tion of .the road within the time.” The reader will be surprised to learu by reference to the documents that there is no such expression either in the Act or iv the grant of exteusiov, and that the “technical” argument which the Senator has advanced is founded solely upon his inaccurate memory. Pending the application for an exten- sion of time the Western North Carolina Railroad Company had a:yertised to let out the contracts to build the road to Pigeon River, and the contractors were to have the expected four months time to complete their work ; it can be imag- ined therefore with what surprise I re- ceived from Governor Jarvis the follow- ing letter, which was delivered to wo ou the day it beare date: Nort CAROLINA, Executive DEPARTMENT, Raveicu, May 13th, 1881. Col. A, B. Andrews: Drar Sir :—I am just in receipt of a letter from Z. B.

Pleasc accept tris as ' gneh notice. The application presented to me by you _last Monday, signed by W. P. Cisde, 'T. M. Logan and A. S.

J, Jagvis. could not be reached by that time. The shall allow a reasonable extension of time promise, or I would be forced tu top the work and refuse to let oat the contratts. Gov. Jarvis assured me that he felt bons and would grant the extension agteed pon. Dr. Worth was it Randolph conn. ty, aud I arged Gov, Jarvis to write him ra letter. explaining the critical dituation “of eftzira, and that I would send it with "the petition and insist thatlie, Dr. Worth, should sign the extension. Now beat in ‘mind that the fraud of which Senator Vance accuses me consists in obtgining “Dr. Worth’s signatire ‘to the extension “im ignorance of hia (Vauet's) letter.” Gov. Jarvis wrote tho following letter to . ‘4+-Dr. Worth, ~ ‘ would. ‘be. K+, Ranmeeat, C., May 14; 1862, - Hon. J. M. Worth: Se My dear sir:—You will remember that at } the meeting of the commissioners of ‘the Western N.C. Railroad it was agreed by yourself, Gov. Vance and myself that we would extend the time for the conipletion of the road to Paint Rock and Pigeon Riv- er, upon the application being made to us, signed by Clyde, Buford and Logan, with the amendment suggested by us. Upon this promise of ours, they have advertised to let the road to contract from Asheville to Pigeon River on the 18th. They presen- ted to me last Monday the application for the extension, in the form and signed by the parties agreed upon by us, as you will see by an examination of the paper itself They have done all on their part that they agreed to door were required to do; and for one, I propose to do what I agreed to do. Gov. Vance wrote me yesterday that cir- cumstances had come to bis knowledge since he was here which induces him to withdraw his assent to the extension and asked me to so inform Col. Andrews. This I at once did, and I fear it is about to seri- ously retard the work. Ofcourse they can- not let the road to contract or go on with the work ina Satisfactory way unless they have an assurance that they will be allowed to go on. The situation then seems to be that we have to take the responsibility to extend the time or the resposibility to stop the work. I choose to take the responsibility to extend the time. If you agree with me, you can, in your own way, say so to An- drews in writing, I have already donc it for myself, Truly, yours, (Sigued.) TuHos. J. JARVI8. My clerk, Mr. Badger, was sent with this letter and the petition to Dr. Worth in Ran- dolph. Dr. Worth read the Ictter of Gov. Jarvis and the amendeg petition and then delivered to Mr. Bad&#r the following pa- per: Soe “L hereby agree t& the extevsion of four months’ time for the completion of the Western N. C. Railroad to Paint Rock and Pigeon River, as stated in the within paper, provided that it in no other respect affects the original contract with the State of North Carolina.” (Signed.) J. M. Worrta. Signed in the presence of 8. BaDGer. To put the question at issue beyond all cavil, Dr. Worth gives to Mr. Badger the following statement: “For the personal satisfaction of Mr S. Badger I state that he delivered tame Gov. Jarvis’ letter of the 14th May,.-3 p61, and that I read the same previous to signing the extension. Aug. 29, 1881.” (Signed.) J.M. Wonrru. Now, az Dr. Worth is shown to have had full knowledge of the fuct of Senator Vance's withdrawal, what foundation has the Senator fur his insiauations that such knowledge was design¢edly kept from him? Dr. Worth simply kept a promise which he made with ‘deliberation, but Senator Vance thinks that if the doctor did so with- out frat having been informed (though in fact he was infogmgd)-that the Senator in- tended t6 ciolate.a similar promise, this would constitute 4 “fraud” and would ren- der the grant of extension void. Can not a lawyer be “honest” and yet dif- fer with Senator Vance upon this legal pro- position / I also give Gov. Jarvis’ asscut to the ex- tension as follows: “As one of the commissioners, I agree to extend the time asked for in this applica- tion, four months, upon the condition set out in application,reserving to myself the ri, ht to withdraw this assent if the applicants fail to perform the conditions set out in their ap- plication.” (Signed.) Tuos. J. JARVIS, May 16, 1881. Commissioner. I think I have established these facts: (1.) That Commissioners Vance, Jarvis aud Worth agreed tu sigu a0 extension of four months on a written condition prepar- ed by themselves. (2). That the assignecs accepted the cun- ditions and complied with them. (3). That Commissioner Jarvis and Worth recognizing the obligation upon them, did sign the grant of extension. (4). That Commissioner Vance without any sufficient cause refused tu fulfill bis promice. Ttiere is one other charge made by Sena- ‘tor Vauce, viz: " ‘That the grantees did. not place on the ‘road “a‘sufficient number of bands to com- plete the’ lines to the :proposcd points” (Pigeon River and Paint ‘Rock) shin siz weeks. ‘after the signing tho grabt of extegsion.” . | tegeiator Vanee lad given the petition ‘or grant ef exferision even a casnal exami- rect. “‘iteoon as the labor could be em- | ployed at a feasonable compensation,” more than three hundred hands were put to work upon the Docktéwn line, and the number has been ‘incréased from time te time until there are now over seven hiindred hands at work uponthatline © 0 | T also call thé ‘attention of the public to the fait that'shé commissioners did not de- ny or Controvert ‘any facts stated in the pe- qtition ‘as to the ‘of: “hindrance and delay,” nor Yance deny them in his interview,:ded they are therefore taken to betrus.’ But if jt is necessary, it 4 lraebees- leas than-foi7 dan- dred, or at least one-fifth less than they stip- uplated to furnish.

EXHIBIT ‘a.” Fo the Hon. Thos. J. Jarvis, Zebulon B. Vance and J. M. Worth, Commisseners : This peNtion of A. B. Andrews, president of the Western N. C. Railroad Company, respectfully represents that in pursuance of the act of the General Assembly, ratified March 29th 1880, entitled “An Act to pro- vide for the sale of the State's interest in the Western North Carolina Railroad Com- pany and for other purposes,” the Western N.C. Railroad has been reorganized, and the work of completion of said road has been begun and the same will be prosccut- ed with the utmost diligence and energy, and as an indication of its earncstness the company has already advertised for one hundred hired laborers, who are being dai- ly employed and placed upon the work, and advertisements are to be posted imme- diately for five hundred additional hired laborers, making six hundred in the agere- gate, which joined to its force of tive liun- dred convicts furnished by the Stute, will soon give the company a total working force of eleven hundred hands, and it is its purpose and intention_to keep all of this force or as many as it can place on the road employed during the whole working season just now opening. But it is respectfully submitted to Your Honorable Board that, notwithstanding the employment of this large force and the costly expenditures which will thereby be necessarily incurred that the company has serious apprehensions that they will not be able to reach the points indicated in the short time left them under the provisions of the Act of the 29th March, 1880. The petitioner respect- fully shows to your honorale boar! what is well known through the public documents of the Senate of North Carolina, that the original grantecs lost four months of the most valuable and suitable time given them by the Legislature, to wit: from the 29th March tothe 8ist day of July, 1880, and which was the basis of estimate when the Legislature prescribed the Ist of July, 1881, as the time when the road should be com- pleted to Paint Rock and Pigeon River, and it was at this gloomy period in the hie- tory of this contract on which North Caro- lina has based so many Dright hopes that the assignees were urged to assume the bur- den of the contract and complete the road ; and that they did at that late day, after four months had been Jost without any fault of theirs, assumed the responsibilities of the contract under the assurance that a liberal policy would be pursued towards them by your honorable board in the exercise of the large discretionary powers granted in said Act. And your petioner further shows that the work on the road which was begun in the early autumn was obstructed and at times almost forced to cease by a wintcr scason unparalleled in its colduess in the history of this State; the snow and frosts were so severe and continuous that it would heve been crucl and inhuman at times tu compel the convicts furnished by the State to be exposed in them. And your petitioner fur- ther shows as a further reason for asking an extension, that it has not been practicable, or perhaps possibléfor the State to take her eonvicts from the penitentiary, or remove them from other public improvements and furnish them to the company according to the provisions of the act, and that the as- signecs have submitted to this curtailment of its labor with the expectation that alike spirit of accommodation and liberality would be extended to them, if they should be compelled to ask for an extension of time. For tbe reasons sect forth above, the nu- dersigned respectfully ask your honorable board to grant him in writing, over your own signatures as commissioners, an “ex- tension of time,” for the completion of said road to Paint Rock aad Pigeon River, to wit: an extension of four months, which is leas than the time lost by the failure and de- lays of the original grantees, and tor which the present assignees ought not to be held legally responible. In conclusion, your petitioner is advised that your hoporable board are empowered by virtue of the 28rd ecc. of the ssid act, under the circumstances above mentioned, and- for the causcs eet forth, “to allow a reasonable extention of fime for the com- pletion of eid lives.’ He therefore asks ahat the prayer of their petition be granted. .

Senator Pugh, of Alabama, commends Mr. Arthur asa true gentleman, full ef common sense, and more apt to lead Cunk- ling than to be led by him in the presiden- cy. Senator Jones, of Nevada, is Arthur's greatest confidante, and his influeace would be exerted for good.

Another Doctor's Oplaion, Dr. Hammond is not alone ia his opinion of the mistreatment of the President b the surgeons. Ina recent interview wit the representative of a New York journal, Dr. Robert Taylor, a physician of some celebrity, gave a pretty free expression’ of his views, from which we quote: “Had the bullet been immediately ex- tracted from President Garfield, he would be on his fect to-day. A seton codld have been passed throu i and there would have been no probability of pyemia, nor eny necessity forthe incisions to extract the us. Oe You regard the incisions as weakening in their effect. then 7” asked the reporter. “Undoubtedly. Each incision withdrew a certain amount of strength a¢ 4 time when strength was most important. Ag] sai before, the fact that be is President affected the physicians in sftendance. They were afraid to do anything. Why, whes Fer- nando Wood was reported to be dsing in Washington, they telezraped for Dr, Sayer. He went on there, and on reaching the room found the patient dying. He was suffering from an abscess in his thawat, which extended to the wind-pipe and choked it. “When Dr. Sayer entered,tbe room he mw tyat Mr. Wood was dying. He was black In the face. Without waiting for s moment he sprang on the bed and cut his throat. The contents of the abscess flew across the room. The patient recovered his breath. He lived. “Now, lemen,” said Dr. Sayer, “if you wish has & con-- sultation I am ready.” “It is such freatment the Preajdent necded, and such treatment he would bave had had he not been the President. “Leister Wallack ‘asked me the other day,” said Dr. Taylor, “what punishment I would devise for the assassin Guiteau. I replied that I would take him into the streets of Wa hingtor, shoot him in the same place the President was shot and then turn him over tothe President's physi- cians.” “And that gives your opinien of the faculty ¢” “It does,” replied the doctor. No doubt the President's ductors will receiye handsome fees for their serviecs, and it wi}l be fortunate for them if they are laryp. For if many such articles as the one above gees out, they will sot only aot win aly professional lgurels by their trest- ment of the case, but will receive np thanks for their devotion. —_ SS Or OOo “ P It is the height of folly to wit mutit you are in bed with disease you may wet get over for wonths, sehen you cas be cured duriug the early symtoms by Par- ker’s Givger Tonic.

We shall publish in our next paper Senator Vance’s reply to Mr. Andrews, a document of considerable length, and too late to hand for convenient publication in this paper. _ Just here we would say to our readers, that these are important papers gu ap important subject.

J. JARVIS. ExEcCTIVE DEPARTMENT, Razxien, August 20, 1881. Hon. Thos. S. Kenan, Attorney General: Dear Sir:—The State is burdened with a debt of over $3,000,000 for the comstruc- tion of North Carolina Rajlroad, and with p debt of considerable magnitude for the covstruction of the Atlantic aud North Carolina Railroad.’ The State still owns a large interest in both of these roads, yet we see the North Caiolina Railroad bow go operated as to not ouly cripple the Atlautic and North Carolina Railroad, but to cut off the people of the whole €asteyp section of the State from the freight privileges of the North Carolina Railroad. This I get. from a circular is- sued by Sol. Haas, general freight agent of the assuciated lives of railways, (No. 88,) in which he prohibits any freight rates beyond Goldsboro to pojnts op the Atlantic aud North Carolina Railroad. One of the results of this outrageous pro- ceeding on the part of the lessees ef the North Carolina Railroad is that the mid- dle sections of the State, in which the corp crop bas almost been destreyed by the excessive drought, will not be able to procure a supply from the east, where the erops have been more favored with and by circuitous routes. This action of the managers of the N. C. Railroad I cousider an outrage upon the people of the State, taken to venta little personal spleen, regardless of the right.aud bevelits of the people. l have no doubt that other instances might be found in their management, it not so glaring, yet penicious to the best interest of the people, ° Ip yiew of these facts, I beg that you will examine into the lease of the North Carolina Railroad, and the advisability of instituting a suit to vacate the lease and recoyer back the road, so that it shall not be operated against the best jnterests of the people ot the Stgte, Very respectfully, your obedient ser- vant, Tos.

Tho laws of North Carolina require every executor and administrator to “take and subscribe an oath or affirmation, be- tore the judge of probate, that he will faithfully and honestly discharge the du- ties ot his trust.” (See Battle’s Revisal, chap. 45, see. 15,) and among these duties that every executor aud administrator swears to discharge is, that he wust *‘no- tify all persons having claims against the decedent, to exhibit the same tu suc} ex- ecutor or administrator at or before a day to be named iv such notice.” (See Bat- tle’s Revisal, chap. 45 sec. 45,) and by ap act of the last Legislature this notice must be published in a newspaper of the county, if there be any. So tbat, every executor or administrator who fails to pub- lish this notice, as required by law, vio- lates his oath. We call attention to this matter in order that executors and ad- winistrators may know the law and not iguorautly violate their oaths. Not ovly do executors and admivistra- tors violate their oaths if they neglect to publish the notice to creditors, a8 requir- ed by law, but they also render them- selves pecuniarily liable, If an executor or administrator is sued on a claim, even when many years have elapsed since his qualification, he’cannot have the benefit of the statute of limitations unless he is able to prove that he has published this notice as the law requires. Tbis very oint was decided at the last term of our Supreme Coort. In reading the last vol- umve of our State Supreme Court Reports {just issued) we find the case of Cox vs. Cox, from Randolph county, where the eonrt expressly says, “For an executor or adyjnistrator fo make out his defence of the statnte of limitations he mast show that he has advertised 9g required by law.” If, therefore, executors, and 4d- ministrators wish to protect themselves from pecuniary loss, as well as to dis- charge their sworn duty, they should ad- vertise according to.law.

They-are about to receive an additional fmpalse from the juvestment of over a million dollars in the iron industry by several wealthy citi- zens of Nashville and elsewhere, A reporter of the Nashville American interviewed James D. Porter, Esq., and obtaived the following information: That himself, Vice-President Alexander, of the Louisviile and Nashville Railway, Gener- al Superivtendent Thomas, of the Nash- ville, Chatanooga and St. Louis Railway and Nat. Baxter, President of the First National Bank of Nashville, had gone there to make a business investigation iv behalf of capitalists who proposed to spend a illien or more of dollars in blast farnaces along the line ofthe Nash- ville, Chattanooga & St. Louis Railway. They found the resources of the mines unlimited, and will make the most favor- able reccommendations to the capitalists who propose to wake the investments.

These are principally the remains of royal families ranging through four dynasties from 2000 to 1700 B.C. It is stated thap ‘the wum- my of the Pharaoh of Israel is among these, in a perfect state of preservation and the mummy of Thotmes ITI, in whose reign the obelisk that stauds in Central Park was first erected. Lotus flowers that look as if they had been plucked a few months ago are found lying in the wrappings of kings who were dead cen- turies before the Pharaoh of Israet was born, and the passage of nearly 4000 years bas not dimmed the beauty of the color of the inscriptions and pencilings, which are as bright and fresh as if the artist had touched them but yesterday.” The in- gcriptious and papyri when fully read will in all probabjjity, throw a fluod of light upon what is now a dark plage to Egyp- tologists—the great middle period of Egyptiau history, which includes the cap: tivity and exodus of the Jews. ———————P-—— Giscovered BAKER FOR SEPTEMBER.—The follow- ing is Prof. J.

How is that ? —<——0 OBscuRATION OF LiguT.—Tuesday and Wednesday of the present week, though not so dark as we have seen, were dark The heavens, ata great height, seemed filled with smoke, And the sun, although eonstantly visible, searcely caused a shadow except for a few hours about the middie of the day, and then but faint ones. The temperature, mean- while, was high and oppreasive, The moon at night was similurly obseared, visible but casting no shadows on the earth. o Mr. W.C. Kluttz had good luck one day last week—killded ten squirrels from one tree. Another--Stokes Cranford of Mont- gomery County killed a deer three weeks ago with a rock. He was standing under a large ayseadine vine on the banks of the river, when a deer trotted uuder the same vine and halted as it saw the man. Cranford jumped for a rock and the deer made a leap entagling itself in the vine, which was very low. The rock struck just behind the ear, stunning the animal. <A rail finished the work, O— THE CotstTy COMMISSIONERS jet Inst Monday, with the full board present.

On Mondey werning he started the pump and hoist. They are down 55 feet in working shaft--going down in a solid talcky state, and expect to cut vein at 125 feet. They use a6 inch Cornish pump and hoist, run by a 20 horse power engine—25 horse boiler. A test of 500 pounds of the ore yielded an average value of $25.00, two-thirds of which was in silver. Mr. Floyd leans to the opinion thatthe veins will all run into silver at 125 feet.

This is a placer deposit interseeted by rich quartz veins, and is located in the Bridletown district of Burke County, Mr. Floyd of the Southern Belle made an examination of the property, and the stockholders of the Southern Belle are also mostly interest in the Carolina Queen.

Since last reported in this paper, there lias been great improvement in buildings as well as underground. A _ large resi- denee for the underground captain, 40x40 two stories, with L 30x15, stauds just be- tween the old and new works. Opposite this ts located the new office, 25x20; store rvom, 35x20) and supply room 20x26, all under one roof. This building is well located, and conveniently arranged. They have up several miners cabins—very nice, comfortable buildings. There are thirteen more of them to go up; which will give accommodation to all the resi- dent miners. The new mill-house is finished with battery complete, ready for work, excepting engine and boiler, which have been ordered, An accident, breaking of pump, oecur- red several week ago, giving a lot of trouble and allowing the mine to fill with wafer. This has all been cleared and the mine is now in fine condition. The main shaft, 14x8, is the best piece work in this section—it is a model— timbered 10x10) sawed oak They ate down 190 feet, and) from this poiut have started a cross cat—GU fect tn. At 50 feet more will cut vein. In this cut mining cars will run. This is arrang- ed so that the ore is taken from the vein apd dumped at the mill with the single handling. The grading of the road bed is finished and the ties and iron js being placed. They have all in all, about 7000 tons of ore in sight—5000 tons on the dump and 2000 in the mine. This is esti- mated to yield from $4.50 to $5.50 per ton. The only impedimenc to the run- ning of the mine is the engine and boiler for the mill house. As svon as this ar- rives the battery will be set going. At present only ten stamps will be used— though the building is arranged to ac- commodate as many more, Last month there appeared on the pay roll, 72 names. This number was dimin- ished for this month. The mine and grounds are in fine condition-. -wearing a look of substantiality which is flattering to the mining interests of the section. The Superintendent, Mr. L. Bertram Cady, who it will bo remembered, isa graduate of the Columbia School of Mines, deserves much praise for the very able manner in which he has conducted the work. e ewe Mining---Future Prospects. ; o The mining interests of North Carolina haye suffered more severely from specn- lation than from any other known cause. Thereare a class of men, who may with propriety be termed ‘nining hyenas,” going trom place to place bonding miner- al Jands for speculation. Thijs practice is ruinous to the best interests of pot only the laud holder, but the purchaser. Ex- tensive and valuable tracts of mineral lands have been bought at farm land pricesand organized into companies at an advanee so great as to load down what otherwise would have been a good pay- ing enterprise, if honorably conducted. Many North Carolina mines might to-day be in operation and producing reasonable dividends if the speculator had been con- tent with reasonable returns. But not so. Each sale must bring a fortune! By reason of this, Northern and English mar- kets are filed with cireulgrs—baits—got- ten up in the most approved style, signed and countersigned by bogus mining ex- perts, asking for investments at figures too startling for even Mnuochausen to handle. On the other hand, some good men have gove to work prudently, advancing slowly, overcoming difficulties as they come to them, until now they are estaU- lished.

It is this class of men, and they alone, who give tove and strength to mining in any section. As regards our mineral interests, North Carolina has seen her darkest days avd her future is assured. Her prosperity will cowe slowly fora while, ‘but the more surely by reasou of the experience of past years. We bave gold, silver, copper, lead, iron and mica in vast quantities; bat to extract these from their native places isa business, laborious and expensive, and pot a lot of figures and naps. It is work, honest hard work, directed by cultivated brain force that is needed —no other plan can succeed. Those who look on mining in any other light will find themselves badly mistaken. Meu who are not afraid to take hold of pick, when occasion re- quires, are the men who will make min- ing a success. GRAIN DRILLS!

B, ANDREWS On the Subject of the Western North Caro- lina Railroad and the Extension of Time for its Completion by the Commissioners. To the Editor of The Charlotte Observer. In the statement. made ou my anthori- ty by your reporter that the siguature of one of the commissioners of the Western North Carolina Railroad, to the applica- tion by the assignees for an extension of ‘time to complete said road to Paint Roek aud Pigcou River, had been obtained by | frand, [ gave all the particulars of the transaction as then known to me so that the publie might judge if the charge was deserved. The answer of Col. Andresws compels me to reply more at length. Aud I shall also tuke the occasion to trace, brietly, the there are many things connected there- with which the people of North Carolina ought to kuow. Passing over, as unworthy of notice, the quibbiings of Col. Andrews upon small discrepaucics between the very words of the act of sale and the untechnical lan- guage of the reporter, which he knew I had disavowed in my eard of the day fol- lowing, and the small sarcasms with Which his letter was supposed to have , been adorned, I shall proceed at ence to ‘the charge of fraud, above alluded to. What is the issue? I used the following “In fact, my letter requested the Governor, as chairwau of the board, ‘to inform Col. Andrews of my change of purpose, which he did, as well, [ presume, as of my letter to Dr. Worth. ‘There was nething impreperin the way in which the information was obtained, the thing | complained of beiug the mannerin which Dr. Worth was induced to sign the cx- tension, ‘in ignorance of ny letier.” This issue is accepted by Col. Andrews, for he says in his letter, “Now, bear in mind that the fraud of which Senator Vanco me consists in obtaining Dr. Worth’s signature in ignorance of his (Vance’s) letter.” What letter, and to whom? Plainly to my letter to Dr. Worth, iufurming him that Thad changed my purpose of signing the extension, fer reasons which I would make known to him, and requesting him, according to my recollection of its contents, to do nothing further until 1 saw him. The simple facts to be determinet, then, are; Did he get that letter, or know its contents, previous to signing the extension ? 2d. Woald that letter, if received, have changed the doctor’s action? 3d. Was any = action taken by Col. Andrews to procure “his signature before he could learn of that letter and its contents? As tothe first two points | offer the following letter, which is couclusive: ASUEBORO, N.C., May 19, 1821. ' Ton. Z. B. Vance: My Dear Sir:—Yours of the 12th reached me on the 17th. On the 15th Mr. Badger came here and stated to me that the railroad) company had advertised to let out to contract to Pigeon River for the Ducktown live, and that it was in- dispensable that they should have the ex- tension at ouce, and that Governor Jarvis had signed it. I signed as follows: “I to the extension of four months’ time for the completion of Western North Carolina Railroad to Paint Roek and Pig- eon River, a8 stated ip the withiu paper, provided that it in no other respect affects the original contract with the State of North Carolina.” I hope I have not play- ed the devil. Lregret that I acted with- out your being present. I world certainly hare net signed tf I had rebeived your letter before doing 80. Yours, truly, J. M. WortuH. Now, how docs Col. Andrews disprove this; by the introduction of the fellow- ing certificate? ‘For the personal satis- faction ot Mr. Badger, I state that he de- -livered to me Governor Jarvis’s letter of ‘W4th of May, 1881, aud that I read the same, previous to siguing the extension. August 29th, 183]. J. M. Wortn.” To make this certificate apply, of course issue had to be made for it, so the as Dr. Worth is shown to have had fall | knowledge of Senator Vance’s withdraw- al, what fuundation has the Senator for hia insinuations, that such knowledge was designedly kept from bim™ In alluding tothat part of my interview in which Lex- pressed the opinion that the assignees were procrastipating, to gain time, the colonel does me the honor to say that ‘it is unwortby of tho Sevator.” 1 am sorry that I canvot be equally complimentary. This poor dodge is worthy of the Col- evel, or of the counsel, who held his pen—just about! did not say that Dr. Worth was in ignorance of my withdraw- al; I did not say that Dr. Worth was in ignorance of Governor Jarvis’s letter, but of my letter. 1 never saw the letter which Gov. Jarvis wrote te Dr. Worth, publish- ed by Col. Andrews, por heard of it, no- til the 30th of August, the day before the colonel’s publication. So that the above certificate has about as much to do with the fact upon which my charge was Lased as would the Doctor’s testimony to the virtues of a patent corn sheller. 1am astovished that the legal advisers of 80 grand a carppration a8 the Richmond aud Danville Railroad should allege that the delivery of a letter to A from B waa like- vise ample proof that the coutents of a ies ‘the commissioners at once; but j him to } /the work, ag that was our wuderstanding. | o Pale elie eee T ; history of this whole transaction, as | S*| It was necessary that they should all act CE ost. letter written by-C was also known to A, althongh not yet received. . Having made good the Jat and 2d points embraced iu this issue, to-wit: that the Doctor was induced to sign the extension in ignorance of my letter, and that he would not have sigued it if the letter had been receiyed in time, let us look at the circumstances under which it was beaten in the race to its destination, On the 12th . May, twelve days after the meeting of the board in Raleigh, I address the follow- ing letter to Governer Jarvis: WASHINGTON, May 12, 1881. Governor T. J. Jarvis: My Dear Sir :—Circumstances coming tomy knowledge since our meeting in Raleigh, iuduce me to withdraw my con- sent tothe extension of tiuie asked for by A. B. Andrews, president. No legal ap- plication by the assignees has yet been presented as Andrews promised, and I have reason to believe that none will be soon. I will explain fully when I sce you. Meanwhile, please notify Audrews that I dg n igi Youydrnn y louger to accept Ms proposifian, when mady. ought to. kuew at ounce. IT will be at home early vext week and can go aver the work with you. Yours, truly, prompt answer: Hon. Z. B. Vance, Senate Chamber, yours of the 12th inst., avd bave inform- Z. B. VANCE. , To this letter I received the following EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT, Raleigh, May [3th, 138]. Washington, D. C.: Dear Sir:—Iam just in receipt of ed Col. Andrews of its contents, aud giv- ‘en him the notice requested. | On Monday, the 9th inet., Col. An- ‘ drews presented me with the paper pre- pared strictly as agreed upon, with all the suggested amendments, made and | sigued by Messrs. W. P. Clyde, A. 8S. Buford and T. M. Logan, assignees. He wished to have it presented to” each of I told hold it till we mect to examine He will so present the paper when we can be got together. 1 have reeently been very much en- couraged with the belief that the present owners are about to begin work in carn- est on both lines of the road ; and [ shall regret tolearn that you have in your possession any facts to prove that they do not so intend to act. If it shall turn out that To am ivight as ; to their purposes, I trust that no ques- tion of reasonable time shall prevent their going on with the work, If on the other hand it shall turn out that Iam deceived and that they do not intend to work on the Ducktown line, you vill find me ready to co my tull daty in the matter. Iam determined, as far asin me lies, to have this road completed without cost or trouble to the State; and I belicve by proper management it can be done. ‘To declare the contract forfeited throws the | road back upouw the State—a thing I reasonable prospect of the done in any reasonable time. Traly yours, ‘Yuos. J. JARVIS. which I wrote to work belug Jan, On the same day on the Governor, but dressed a letter to Dr. Worth, (the one in question, | applied to him for a copy of it aud he said it was misplaced). Of its con- tents, [ cau state from recollection, inv which he confirms me, that it was fuller than the ove to Gov. Jarvis, and reques- ted him to do nothing further until our next meeting. On the cuvelope, over my initials, Was a request to Mr. Bain, chict clerk in the Treasury, to forward imme- Raleigh. The Governor's letter arrived by way of Greensboro, 1;30 p. m., and Col. An- drews was informed ef its contents immes diately, By the retarn mail of that day, whieh left Raleigh at 4 o’clock p.m., the the Governor's letter, above quoted, was dispatched to me. I ask a caretul peru- sal of it as necessary to au understanding of the situation. Now, Col Andrews was in possession of my purpose by, say, 2 o'clock, on Friday the 13th. If the ne- esssity of obtaining the extension was so great that without it, as Col. Andrews says he told Gov. Jarvis “that be should be forced to stop the work” and refuse to let out the contracts advertised for, why was no messenger sent to Dr. Worth that day? Gov. Jarvis had time to write a full letter to me and one to Col. Andrews. It would seem, therefore, that the Colo- bel would have had time to dispatch his messenger by the same train. 1 can only conjecture the reason why. My letter to Dr. Worth, having been written at a In- ter hour on the 12th than the one to the Governor, was dispatched from Washing- ton by adifferent route and arrived in Raleigh by way of Weldon, at 8 p. m., on Friday the 13th, It wasn't received at the Treasurer’s office until business hours next day. There it was opened and read and then forwarded by the 4 o'clock train to Asheboro, so Mr. Baia says. There being no secrecy about its existence or contents, if avy one spoke of it, IT wish not to impute the slightest impropriety thereto. Ido not know that avy one did so speak. But Ido know, at least Gov. Jarvis so told me, that sume hours after the regular train had left that day, bear- ing my letter to Dr. Worth, a special en- give left Raleigh, going in the same di- rection, on which was Mr. 8, Badger, the agent of Col. Andrews bearing the appli- cation for the extension of time aud the following urgent letter of Gov. Jarvis, heretofore published by Col. Andrews: RaveicH, N.C., May 4, 1831. Alon. J. M. Werth: My Dear Sir: You will remember that, at the mecting of the commissioners of the Western North Caroliva Railroad it was agreed by yourself, Gov. Vauce and myself that we would extend the time for the completion of the road to Paint Rock and Pigeon river upon appli- cation being made to us signed by Clyde, Buford and Logan, with the amendments suggested by us. Upon this prowise of ours, they have advertised to let the road to coutract from Asheville to Pigeon riv- er on the 13th inst. They presented to me last Monday the application for the the extension in the form and signed by the parties as agrced upon by us, as you will see by an examination of the paper itself, They have done all on their part that they agreed to do or were re- quired to do, and, for one, I propose to a e, should be slow to do as long as there is a | ata later hour, Tad- | diately if the Doctor should wet be ia} a —— circumstances had eome to hisgnowledge since he was here which indage him to withdraw his assent to the ext@@sion, and asked me to so inform Col. SAndrews. This I at once did, and I fear t&is. about to serionsly retard the work. Qf coarse they cannot let the road to contract or go on with the work in a satisfaétory way unless they have an assurance that they. will be allowed to go on. ‘ The situation then seems to be that we have to take the responsibility te extend the time or the responsibility to stop the work. I choose to take the responsibili- ty to extend the time. If you agree with me, you can, in your own way, say so to Andrews in writiog. I have al- ready done it for myself. Yours traly, (Signed) Tnos. J. JARVIS. This agent pursued his journey across the country from the railroad,—on Sun- day—beat the mail bearing my Ictter, _and procnred the Doctor’s signature, on Sunday, “in ignorance of my letter.” Re- member, too, that the Doctor says Mr. Badger, wld hig, Gov. Jargi signed “the application, whereas, t ord of the ‘commissioners made at their Asheville meeting under the superintendauce of Gov. Jarvis himself, shows that the pa- per was presented to him and was sigued by him on the 16th of May, 1831. Now, was there not, in this, a double deception practiced on Dr. Worth, and an advantage taken of him and me? Was not an important and material fact con- cealed?) A knowledge of which would bave prevented the action that was ta- ken. Was I not justifiedjin saying that no lawyer acquainted with the the ciream- stauces could ever give a favorable opin- ion as to the legality of the instrument thus obtained ? In the case of the North Carolina Rail- road Company vs. Swepson, et al.,; re- ported in 7Ist) North Carolina Reports, page 359, the court uses the following lan- guage, “But there is another view which is decisive against the defendants. It has been said that the plaintiffs’ board ‘appointed three (3) toact in the premises, together.” And if it be said that the act of saie ‘wakes the decision of @ majority of the commissioners binding the answer ts, the, principle still remains and for a still stronger reason, the two which constitute the majority should act together. 1 fur- ther maintain that under the act ilis nec- essary in order to) render the action of the two commissioners valid all three should be present when such action is taken. See the reasoning of Judge Pear- son in the State vs. Lane, 4, Iredell, 334. It would seem indeed that Col. An- drews himself is aware that the extension is not legal, for it was presented to the board at its meeting on the 23d of June, in Asheville; was not acted upon and is still pending. It will be observed too that according to the conditions upon which Gov. Jarvis signed it, he could now legally withdraw his assent. At that meeting, fifty-four (54) days atter their application Was made for an extension of time, the commissioners found as a fiact and entered it on their record that, “net finding the number of taborers ou the Clyde agreed in their application for ex- tensiou of time, to put there, took no for- mel action as comuiissiouers sitting to- | gether upon the application.” | Having now disposed of the personal | inatter between Col. A. and myself, jus- ‘tice to myself requires that I shoald speak | more alt large with reference tomy action ;as commissioner. It will be remembered ! that during the year 187) serious appre- ihensious enrme to be entertained that there would be difficulty in continuing the appropriations for the completion of the Western North Carolina Railroad. It had been on had 50 long and so many misfortnnes, vot to mention worse things had attended its construction, that many people began to fear it would swamp the party which undertook to carry it to com- pletion, These considerations induced me to listen favorably to tho propositions of Mr. W. J. Best for its purchase when he approached me on the subject. 1 be- lieved ita favorable opportunity to se- cure the completion of that great aud im- portant work without further taxation, or political disquiet to our people. The ne- gotiations then sct on foot resulted as is known in the call of a special session of the Legislature and the passage of the act authorizing its sale to Mr. Best and his associates. It must not be furgotten that the chief consideration of that sale was the building of the road from Ashe- ville to Ducktown, At the time of the sale the great obstacle, the passage of the Blue Ridge, had been overcome and the cars were running almost to the town of Asheville. From there the short line down the French Broad was a matter of easy accomplishinent, one-third being al- ready graded. The State could easily have finished in a short with her conyict labor or could have found other parties quite ready to take it off ber hands. The great object to find parties who wold ent thro’ the mountains 145 milesto Ducktown Asis known, Mr. Best, by thedesertion of his associates, was left unable to perform his coutract. How this happened it is not now necessary to inguire, Twill on- ly say that I had then, and have pow the fullest confidence in lis good faith, Find- ing himself thus unable to perform his obligattous to the State, he fiually suc- ceeded in borrowing a portion of the money needed from Messrs. Buford, Clyde & Co. Athis request I went to New York and aiced him to accomplish thisas inuch as was iu my power. ‘These gen- tlemeu disclaimed the slightest desire to assume Mr. Best’s contract, but express- ed au anxiety for the completion of the road as a desirable adjunct to their busi- hess arrangements. Tat no time desired themor supposed froutheir language that they desired to become owners of the road, They bLowever came into pos- session of it by the failure of Mr. Best to repay them their movey iu July of last year. Relactant as I was to sco this road fall into the hands of a corpo- ration that had elready dene so much to reduce North Carolina to a state of com- mercial vassalage to an adjoining State, by diverting its trade from our own towns and cities, yet so great was my anxiety to sce this work completed that I determined to aid as much as [ could the assignees to prosecute it with all possible dilligence and enorgy, depending for the protect.on of our people upon the provision 1D the act of sale, which forbids discriminations against North Carolina towns and cities on the part of the assignees. I soon found, bowever, at least { | ; | work which Messrs. Buford, Logan aud do what I agreed to do. Gov. Vance wrote me vesterdey that I came to believe, that they did not intend to build the Ducktown branch. In other words that they did not intend to pay the abiee for which the road was sold to them. came to believe also that in defiance of the law they were determined soto discrim- inate against the interests of our people as to rai many and greatly injure all,< By degrees they have secured control of nearly every road in the State or leading into it west of Raleigh. They have now so got the commerce of North Carolina in their grasp that they can crush to death all of it, except that portion which they foster for the benefit of Richmond. I came to believe also that they did not intend to prosecute the work even on the French Broad line with the “dilligence and energy” required by the contract, but intended to take their time and finish at their convenience. The circumstances which in@uced me to believe that they did not intend to build to Duck- town are many. In the first place the fact was stated in my hearing at a conference in September last, between Messrs. Best, Clyde, Lozan and others, in the city of New York, and was not denied by any one present. _Another reason is found in the sworn tes- timony of Col. Buford before the Senate committee of Internal improvements, in February last, in Raleigh, in which, among niuny other intimations thrown out to the same effect, Mr. Buford declared “that the parties contracting with Mr. Best took the assignment of his contract with the State when it became absolutely nécessary, in the manner heretofore stated, with the inten- tion to carry it out in good faith as far as the ability and interest of the capital they rep- resented would allow.” Again, at the meeting of the board of com- missioners in Raleigh on the 80th of April last, when Col. Andrews appeared before it he handed us his application for an exten- sion of time with the remark, “gentlemen, I think I can say to you that we have pret- ty well made up our minds to go to Dueck. town!” And still another reason was, that up to June of this year, almost all the work done was upon the French Broad line. Lastly, they began to build) the Duck- town line from Asheville as a narrow gauge road, being advised, as Col. Andrews said, they could build it any gauge they pleased. In support of my conviction that they in- tended to build the French Broad branch at their leisre, I cite the fact that so fur as is known to me, from July, when they got the road, to near the last of May of this year, not a laborer execpt the convicts fur- nished by the State, was put upon that work, unless, it might be a few skilled mechanics. As tothe convicts being short of the five hundred which the State contracted to fur- nish, Col. Andrews fails to state that Gov. Jarvis did tender the number that was de- ficient and they were not receive; owing, ag was said, to the uncertainty attending the ownership of that road. Evenif the whole number had been furnished by the State, it was a well known fact that they alone could not have finished the road in the time re- quired by the contract Nor did they keep on the Ducktown line a force sufficient to insure its completion to Pigeon river by Ist of July, as required by the contract. In an- swer to the allegation that four of the best months of last year were lost before they took the contract, it is sufticient to say that the same force was at work during those four months as was kept at work after- wards, up to the latter part of May of this year, to wit: the convict force alone; and my modest opinion is that but for the with- drawal of my assent to that application for the extension of time, and the threatened danger of a forfciture of their contract, there would not new be any except the con- vict force on the French Broad branch, and none on the Ducktown branch. In the matter of discriminations on freights and charges, forbidden alike ex- pressly, in the contract with W. J. Best and his assigns, aud in the cbarter of the Pied- mont Railroad, against Norch Carolina towns and cities; against one town in North Carolina in favor of another; and against all roads connecting with the North Caro- lina road, time would fail me to expose them. They are obvious and glaring— each town depot in the State from Raleigh west has its own tale to tell. I have the authority of some of the most prominent merchants in Charlotte for saying, that they have to pay themselves the freight on goods sold south of this point; others, that the freights so far South as Columbia are cheaper than to this point from North- ern cities, and to sell their goods they have to pay this difference against them. And still others say that wien they receive au order for goods from any point on the Western North Carolina road they can niake no profit, except by filling the bill by ordering from the wholesale mer- chant in Richmond to be shipped direct to their customers. I have in my possession freight bills showing the rates between Richmond and Asheville, N. C., to be 65 cents per hundred pounds, and I have also a freight bill in which, on goods coming to Charlotte, from Marion to Statesville, a dis- tance of 67 miles, the charges are $1.14 per hundred pounds. Similar statistics can readily be found anywhere in Western North Carolina, although we do not see them in many of our pewspapers. Tbe Richmond & Danville Company own or control all the roads west of Raleigh, with one or two ex- ceptions, and these they are said to be ne- gotiation for and will doubtless get. Even whilst I write, it is stated in the public prints that they have purchased the Vir- ginia Midland. The result of this, if true, will probably be to discontinue the work now in progress to extend it from Danville to Mooresville, cutting off the only hope of the people along that line for a railroad, and completed or not, destroying also the last hope of this section to obtain a com- peting line. Then the coils will be com- pletely around ts. We will be absolutely at the mercy of strangers. A foreign corporation will dispose of the wealth, if there be any left, and dictate the policy of North Carolina. The fiat that taxca the earnings of our people issues from the city of Richmond. But recently an or- der was put forth by one Haas, gencral freight agent of this corporation, forbid- ding any freight arrangements to be made by what is called the Associated railroads with tbe Atlantic and North Carolina Rail- road. The crops of this part of the State have utterly failed, but the eastern counties bare been blessed with abundant harvests of grain, and if permitted reasonable freights would feed our already suffering population. But one Wm. J. Best is in control of that road, and is trying to build anotber through the heart of North Carolina. The Rich- inond and Danyille Company don’t like Mr. Best, so this order issues, and the people of these parched and suffering plains are de- nied access to the abundant stores of their eastern brethren. The roads of their own State are made the instruments of their op- pression. These things have influenced my “4 Ee ne a eS re eels aaadememes sae conduct as a commissioner of the Western North Carolina Railroad and as a citizen. I am aware that by pursuing this course I subject myself, not only to the danger of being misunderstood by that portion of my fellow-citizens who cau be made to believe that I am trying to stop the progress of the work, but also to the eumity of a vast cor- poration im the hands of strangers, who may have the power, as they certainly have the will, to crush all who stand in their way. IT know that such institutions have insidi- ous and irresistible methods of corrupting legislators, of suborning the press, and fore- ing pablic opinion. I know full well the dangerI incur by attempting toe thwart the purposes of one of these vast combina- tions of capital, which, deifying the spirit of gain, embody the very essence of gelfish- ness and go straight on to their object, re- gardiess of all considerations except those which contribute to success. I know how powerless an agricultural people,of moderate means, spread over a wide extent of coun- try, like the people of North Carolina, are to contend with such a power. If 1 consul- ted my own ease or conveniene, I would re- tire fromm the contest. But the répresenta- tives ef the people, confiding in my integ- rity and faithfulness, chose me as one of their commissioners to superintend the exe- cution of this contract. ‘I shall justify that contidence, or try to do so, let the conse- quences to myself be what they may.

McDermott confided in him, said he came from Hugland and that his relatives were wealthy. In the spring of 1879 he went to work oa the Delaware and Hudson Canal, oe- casionally visiting this city. About a year ago an English lawyer arrived here and inguired for the whereabouts of McDermott. After some difficulty he was found and informed that a wealthy uncle had died without chil- dren, leaving his entire estate to Me- Dermott’s father, who, however, be- iug also dead, it had descended to him. Thomas went at once to Eng- land and took possession of the proper- ty. Hedied on the 28th of March last and wi led his entire property, sive a few small bequests, to the young mechanic of this city and his wife who had taken compassion upon him when he was in destitute ciream- stances here.

A prominent New York lawyer left on Tuesday for England to have the willed prop- erty admitted to probate. —————ccqoqug-s- ar —_— ——— A Hint For Orcuarpists.—One of the worst enemies the apple orchard has to contend with is the codling moth, which, unless dealt with in a vigorous manner, is very apt to de- stroy the fruit of the orchard. The pasturing sheep in the orchard, when the fruit approaches the ripening stage, approprizte to themselves the early decayed fruit that falls, and thus keep in check the worm which docs all the damage. A. R. Whitney, of Franklin Grove, Kee connty, Ills., the largest erchardist in the United States, having 45,000 bearing trees, remarked at the recent meeting of the American Nursrymen’s Association at Dayton, that he could not get along at all in his orchard without sheep. While the fruit of his neigh- bors, who du not keep sheep, suffers badly, his apples are smooth, sound and uninjured by his mode of presery- ing them from the enemy. An lilinois paper asserted that “there is one jackass in our Legisla- ture,” and before noon of the day on which the item was published the edi- tor received a note from every mem- ber of the House, including the Speaker, telling him to retract or look out for libel suit, each member regarding it asa personal hit, The man alluded to was in the Segate. -_—_—b>- ea James P.

It has been well sug- gested by a cotemptorary that no great reliance Le placed on this modé of re- ‘jef. It cannot be expected that guano dealers will cut down their elaims for guano gold any more than the dealers in’ other goods when such far reaching acei-— dents occur... Guand dealers have made contracts predicated on sales which they must meet with cotton or the cash, or be ruined. There is vo escape or relief for them; 80 it will be better for every farmer do as we heard one of our Rowan men say last week, to wit: “When I made the debt I expected to pay it, I knew there was a risk to be run and I elected to run it. I’m not go- ing to squeal or flinch now, but will do my level best to pay every dollar.” We have no doubt guano dealers will be as accommodating as they possibly can. '*\.¥Yehnor Pigured Down. A comparjson of Vennor’s predictions for August with the weather as it occurr- ed in August, made by the Boston Tran- script, shows that his prediction for the Ist was correct, aud on-the 15th, 16thand 17th there was fm approach to correct- ness; the rengining 27 days proved the direct opposite of his prophecy. Lardner, in one of his published lect- ures, bestows considerable attention to the early history of weather Almanacs in England. He relates the rather remark- able fact that the first publications of this kind caused inteuse excitement, and that the printing office from which they were issued had to be protected by a strong po- lice force, to prevent the eager buyers fron. breaking into and hindering the business of the house. That this excite- ment attracted the attention of scientific men, who soon made arrangements for a thorough test of the weather predictions of the Almanacs. They caused a number of Diaries to be kept in different parts of the kingdom for the space of 20 years, and these, when compared with the weather predictions of the Almanacs, proved the latter to be utterly worthless. It doubtless cooled the public mind to some extent, but did not entirely destroy confidence in weather predictions, which continues to the present day to engage the serious attention of a large portion of the people, and will continue probably, to the end of the world. Neither Vennor nor Baker need fear much damage to their reputation if they guess pretty nigh right one time out of teu. It isa subject eve- rybody talks about, more or Tess, and it is areal help in the conversation of some people to say that Vennor or Baker has predicted thus and so, It matters very little whether they hit or yuiss, It an- swers the momentary purpose and thatis quite sufficient so far as anybody cares; for seriously, no sane man ever attaches any value to such predictions. ae THE ARTESIAN WELL now in process of construction at Darham, attracts especial interest at a time such as we have had this summer, when streams and ordinary springs and wells are failing, causing dis- tress ts men and animals. The work at Durham will probably lead to the con- struction of similar wells in other places, and possibly to important discoveries al- so; for we can never know what is lock- ed up in the earth under our feet except by going down to see, We are glad to learn that Mr. Cameron, of the Durham Recorder is keeping an accurate account of the work referred to, and will, when it is finished, publish ngtonly an account of the geological and mineral developments, but also an account of the cost and mo- dus operandi of construction, Torr DF HURRICANE aT WILMINGTON.—There was a furious avd destructive storm at Wilmington, and along the coast of North Carolina, on Friday last, which proved very destructive to property.

To the Editor of The Charlotte Observer. 8o fully for a few days, that my rejoinder to Senator Vance’s card of the 6th inst. will be necessarily postponed for a short date as-possible. I enclose to: you a copy vis, and which;you published some days since. Very respectfully, yours, A.B. ANDREWa, Ricumonp, Va., Sept. 1, 1881. North Carolina, Raleigh, N.C, Dear Sir:—Your letter of the 26th August, with the copies therein enclosed of the Jetter of Commissioners Vance and of the 20th August to Attorney-Cencral Kenan, have been received and have had inatters refiged to by*you,and Ju tlie order in whith you mettion them. ~~ First: I regret that circumstances over which I had no control necessarily delay - ed the reply of Messrs. Clyde and Logan and myself te the communication of the the Generat Assembly of North Carolina relating to the sale of the State’s interest in the Western North Carolina Railroad bearing date the Ist of August, 18381, to which yoa refer. This reply was for- warded yesterday to your address, and Inow have the honor to enclose you a copy of it, and beg to eall your attention write. and Worth, two of the three comtmission- they have failed to keep a force at work on the Ducktown line after the road had reached Asheville, sufficient to insure its July, 188; and that they have failed to complete said road to that point and to Paint Rock by the Ist July, 1881.” The fact that the lines were not com- pleted to Paint Rock and Pigeon River on the Ist July, 1881, has been known to the commissionérs ever since that day, and they also knew that the assignees did not expect to be able to complete them by that time, long before the Ist July. the Western North Carolina Railroad Company “presented | petition to the commissiovers on the 30th day of April 1881, asking for ‘an months’ time fiom the Ist July, for the completion of the work to the points nam- ed, aud the-record of the proceedings of the commissioners show that this petition was duly considered, and that the com- missioners agreed to grant the prayer of the petitioners upon certain conditious, all of which were faithfully complied with. And after this petition had been amended as required by the comimission- ers, and signed by the assignees as was also required, your Excellency acting in the capacity of a comupissioner, finding that the assignees had fully complied with the sioners, proinptly gave, as all the com- missioners had agreed to do, your con- sent in writing to the extension as pray- ed tor. Tlou. J. M. Worth on the next day signe& a writing of similar import. When these papers were obtained, the assignees pracceded to prosecute the work with vigor, diligence and energy. If the consent had uot been given, they would have been forced to abaudon it. It is nnnecessary to refer to the reasous for the application for an extension of time, or to the reasons which induced the commissioners to grantit. It is enough to say that they were then deemed alto- gether sufficient. These being the facts of the case, all of which were well known to gommissioners Vance and Worth, I am ata loss to know why itis that they report the assignees as delinquent in failing to fiaish the werk to the poiuts named by the Ist July. The act of Assembly makes it the duty of the cowfv¥ssioners: under certain cir- cumstauces, fo graué certain extensions of time. These citéumstances existed. And it wiJlyegt-be -deuied that the State itself has been delinquent, and is to this day delinguent, iv failing at any time durivg the progress of the work, to fur- nish the.unmber of convicts which she agreed to furnish. : I have seen in the public priuts that Commissioner Vance has stated, that the grant of the extension of time signed by your Excellency and Commissioner Worth Was invalid, because the signature of Commissioner Worth to the paper bad been fraudulently obtained ; and he states as the ground upon which be makes this serious charge, that the signature was ob- tained before Commissioner Worth had been informed that he (Commissioner Vance) had determined, for reasons satis- factory to himself, to decline to: comply with bis agreement to grant the exten- sion, and had withdrawu his consent. | Without stopping to enquire whether Commissioner Worth would have felt himself justified in refusing to fulfill his own solemn promise because Commissien- er Vance had declived to comply with his, Iwill only say, that you yourself. know that you communicated to Dr. Worth, in your letters of the 14th May, 1881, the fact that Commissioner Vance had with- drawn his consent, and that Comniission- er Worth received and read this letter before he signed the paper. ; Relying most implicitly upon the good faith of the commissionets in their Aétion of the 30th of April, 1881, and upon the consent to the extension given in writing by Commissioner Worth and your Exceél- ? lency, the assignees pressed forward the My official duties will occupy my time time. Ls¥all send it to you at as early a, of Col. Buford's- answer to. the several, Pp His Excellency Thos. J. Jarvis, Governor of and Worth to you, and your two letters my attention, and I now take the earl- | iest ve rt to reply to the several commissioners appointed by the act of to the statements therein contained as pertinent tothe matters of which you Second: I observe that Messrs. Vance ers, officially report to your Excellency, “that the assignees of the grantees in the act mentioned, have failed to prosecute the work with diligence and energy ; that completion to Pigeon River by the 1st It is well known that the President of requirements of the commis- | work most vigorously, and employed labor ag soon as they could. In a short time they placed three hundred (300) ad- ditional hands-upon the Pi line and have had -during month of August an average of over seven hundred (700} men on that line,and about six hundred (600) on the other, notwithstand- ing the fact that the State is still delin- | quent, iu failing to farnish the Gye hun- drea (500) convicts, as she contracted to do. I am unwilling to believe that any one these - facts, undertake to have the con- ‘tract forfeited, becanse the lines to Paint Rock and Pigeon River were not com- leted by the Ist July. However this may be, 1 thfok it proper to inform yon Tetters enclosed to him by Governor Jar-}that the assignees will rely upon all their -legal rights in the premises, of which I can not assume it is the desire or purpose ef the commissioners to endeavor to de- prive them. I beg to state further that the cireum- stances and inducements ander which the Best contract was assigned to Messrs. Clyde, Logan and myself, and under which the obligatiuns thereof were as- snmed, are stated with some detail in their letter in reply to that of the com- missioners of the Ist August, a copy of which is sent you herewith, as before stated; and you may well imagine that the assignees were surprised to.learn that, notwithstanding these facts, the commis- sioners had, as far back as the 25th May, 188], actually entered into a formal agree- ment with Mr. Best, looking to the re- gession or re assignment of said.contract, jof which agreement the assignees were kept in total ignorance for more than two months, votwithstanding they were re- doubling . their energies and sparing no effort or expense to carry out and com- plete the contract, relying upon the ex- tension of time which had not only beer granted, but granted without controversy as to their right to claim it. Third. Commissioners Vance and Worth also say iu their letter that they find upon examination that the company | of the assignees are daily discriminating in freights and chargés againts Nerth Carolina towns and cities and railrroads | contyary to*the provisions of section 20, of the act relating to the sale of the Wes- teru North Carolina Road. In behalf of the assignees, we say, we krow that no such discrimination has been authorized or intended, and. we believe none such exists. In cunfirmation of this, 1 beg to say, that since the receipt of your letter communicating this charge, TE have talk- ed freely with Col. Andrews, President, and Mr. Macmurdo, General. Freight Agent of the Western North Carolina Railroad Company, who emphatieally de- clare that no such discrimination has been intended, and as far as they know or believe, nove exists. I have personally examined their tariff rates and ean find no evidence of any such. . There may be isolated cases in whieh freight bills are improperly made out, but these errors are promptly corrected upon application, or when attention is calied to them.

Iam informed that the General Freight Agent's attention was called to the section of the act referred to, and he Was instructed not to violate it, avd he he is prepared to verify by his tariff sheets, that I beg to say are always snb- ject to the inspection of the commission- erg, Fourth. In vegard to what your Excel- lency has to say in your letter to the At- ltorney General as (fecting injuriously the interests of the | people of Eastern North Carolina, based jupou a certain circular issued by Sol. j fiaas, General Freight Agent, allow me | Say, that as you will see from what fol- lows you have wholly misapprehended the actual facts of the situation. Mr. Yates, Mavager of the Atlantic and North Carolina Railroad, complains by letter of the 16th August, 1881, to Mr. Haas, general freight agent of the Asso- ciated Railways, of certain alleged ine- qualities of rates. To this Mr. Haas re- plies next day, explaining that the rates complained of were so made to enable Newbern to compete with Wilmington, ; Richmond aud Norfolk for the same | trade, the Atlantic aud North Carolina Railroad having the same relative rates as the lines from the last named cities. But, that in view of his, Mr. Yates’, ob~ jections to the rates he issued the notice in question, and requested Mr. Yates to furnished bim at the earliest moment With such rates to competitive points as he was willivg to pro rate, and what pro- portions he was willivg to accept to Goldsboro on all classes of freight to W. and W. and North Cvrolina stations, Please see copies of these letters herewith subinitted from which it is clear that the temporary withdrawal of through rates was intended only to enable the manager of the Atlantic and North Carolina Rail- road to arrange rates satisfactory to him- self, which action on his part was reques- ted to be taken at once. Meanwhile the actual interchange of traffic was practi- cally undisturbed, and the rates paid by shippers not at all increased. Iu the absence of the General Freight Agent, I have requested the attention of our general manager, Col. Talcott, to this matter and herewith submit copy of his letter of this. date in reply. I also submit herewith for your information copies of letter of Mr. Yates to Mr. Haas, of date Augusé 20tlr, 1831, and of Mr. Haas’ reply thereto, snd bis order revok- ing the former. one. Upou reading these papers you will hardly veed a word of comment to satisfy you, that if any disturbance of freight ar- rapgements between the North Carolina and, the Atlantic and North Caroliva roads fias occnrred, jt has resulted trom tue action of the Atlantic and North Car- colina Railroad, and can be continued only by its failure tq meet the general freight agent of the North Carolina Railroad in his urgent proposal to have the rates aet- tled and agreed. ~ I can, therefore, assure your Excellenc of my conviction,that,in the order referred te, Mr. Haas had no intention whatever to encroach upon the rights or interests of the Atlantic and North Carolina Rail- road. What transpired was, of eourse, without my Knowledge at thetime. The geueral freight agent uecessarily regu- lates these traffic managments, subject to control and supervision, He has fo au- thority to treat unfairly any traffic pass< iug between the North Cagolina Railroad and the Eastern portions of the State, and knows that be would not be allowed sq to do, were ‘he disposed, which I do not believe. You are yourself witness of fhe endea— vors that have been made by the lessees of the North Carolina Railroad, to aig those sections in their transportation in- terests.

These gentlemen do not pretend that they are confering any qreat favor on the public in this matter, for they have as- certained that these coins are readily dis- posed of in New York atrates correspond- ing with the amount of metal lost by such mutilation, which is really a very trifling sam, by no means justifying the shave recently demanded. Mr. J. P. Caldwell, of the Statesville Landmark, wrote to the Secretary of the Treasury, at Washington, afew days ago, for an explanation of the business. The Secretary answered promptly “that this department has fixed no specific value on the coins in question, and that there is no provision of law or regulation of tie de- partment for the redemption of any coins so mutilated as to be unfit for circulation. Such coins may be disposed of as bullion at their bullion value, which would, of course, be less than face value and would vary according to the degree of mutila- tion.” So it seems that the Government has had nothing todo with fixing rates on -}|matilated coin, but that it isall the work of speculaters.

BRUNER, MANAGER. Goip Hitt.—They are excavating site for new mill house; 54x76 ground; three stories high. This house is desigued for a 30 stamp battery, with necessary crushers, and will contain two 50 horse boilers and a 60 horse engine. At the Barnhardt shaft they have sunk the water 160 feet with the old machin- ery, which was overhauled and put to work in the interval required for pur- ehasing and building the plant of the new machinery. The dry weather has cut off their sup- ply of timber, the saw mills being idle from the lack of water. Consequently the work has not progressed as rapidly as it otherwise would have done. ee Glenn Anna, This proderty 4 of a mile south of ‘t bom- asville, is worked by A. C.

Davis owns the mountain, which is a mile anda quarter long. It is now being prospected and developed by Truman Coman, Esq. The prospects are truly flattering—the ore being continuous the entire length of the hill, and always maintaining a fair paying width. The pannings frequently show rich points, approaching a dwt, in weight. All the ores on the dump show free gold. The manager, Mr. J. W. Mason, who is 0 miner of 30 years experience, says : “I have never seen a prospect equal to it, or anything like as good with such an inexhaustible quantity of free gold ore, and some also, with a right smart sprinkling of sulphurets. I send you a sample of the ore—a fair sample of the best. This sample I broke froma piece weighing 24 pounds.” Thesample sent shows on one of its planes a deposit of about a dwt of free gold.

From Maine and New Hampshire to Georgia and the Carolinas, the press is teeming with new discoveries. The mining industry is reaching vast proportions and those who look for any decadence in business in our Exchanges will find that they have grossly miscal- culated. There never has been so favor- abie an outlook as at present. ‘This is not only true of New York, but Boston has become a great mining centre, and its capitalists are realizing the great oppor- tunities for profit in mining, by seeking out good properties, capitalizing them, and drawing public attention to their merits. * * * —N. ¥.

Mr. Epitor:—I have read with much interest what the Watchman has had to say on the subject of Jarge wheat yields, and my interest in this subject must be my apology for troubling you with these lines. I write to inquire of you or of Mr. Lowrance, a particular description of the kind of land sowed down, the mode of preparing the land, the variety of seed, the time of sowing, the quantity of seed per acre, and the manner and substance of-fertilizing—all about the thing, briefly. I feel satisfied that many other farmers would feel interested in the answers to these questions, and that a rejoinder would be of general interest at this time. Yours truly, Youna FaRMER.

So far as the wheat crop is concerned the report stands good, for the wheat throughout the coun- ty was unusualy good thissummer. The yield was large and the quality of grain superior. Itisa great blessing to our section the wheat crop was good, for the corn crop will be distressingly short this fall. he ridges and highlands all over the couvty, and especially it Cline’s, Hickory, Bandy’s and Mountain Creek townships, have been so unusually dry that eorn will be an utter failure, mavy fields will not average two bushels to the acre. Along the Catawba river, Clark’s Creek, Jacob’s Fork, Henry’s Fork and other streams and sectious whcre the soil is not susceptible to the drouth, there are some good fields of corn, but these belong tu citizens whoalso had good wheat crops —so it will be seen that the dry weather is affecting a class of people throughout this county that will sensibly feclit. We have inquired of citizens coming into Hickory from the various sections of the | county, and judging from the reports of ‘these gentlemen, there will not upon a | used, | whole be halt a crop, and probably not a third of a crop made iu the county. The cotton crop is equally short. Many of the farmérs purchased largely of fer- tilizers expecting to make large crops of cotton, but in many cases the cotton tields will vot balf pay for the fertilizers The farmers are talking a great ideal about gloomy prospects that secim to await them, and many of them are very sensibly beginning lo economize already. The tobaces crop also will be unusually short this season, and notwithstauding the shortage it will be ulmost impossible tor the growers to cure up their crops bright, for the tobacco will necessarily be cut before it is properly inatured—hence the diflicuity in coloring. The drought lias caused a continual rise in grain and all kinds of breadstulfs, and if the dry weather continnes the value of catables | will continue to inerease.—JLicyory Press. The Press has very accurately deserib- ed the condition and prospects of nearly all the counties in Western North Caroli- na this side the Blue Ridge. The early, forward corn in rich uplauds may make a third or fourth of a crop; but the thin suiled dry ridges will fail almost to make fodder. Rich bottoms are producing fine- ly, but these will nut sapply the demana. — —— > ae For the Watchman. TAYLORSVILLE, N. C., Sept. 10, 1881. Editor Watchman:—The drought still continues—Corn in up land very light, on bottum land pretty fair. Garden vegeta- bles, potatoes, &c., almost a complete failure. To-day has been a busy day— a meeting inthe interest of the States- ville & Jefferson Rail Road was largely attended anda good deal of interest in the enterprise developed. But the subject which attracted most attention and de- veloped the most interest was the arrival of Elijah Church, this morning, in charge of a number of men who had arrested him and brought him to this county to deliver him to the-Sheriff of Alexander, there be- iug for some time a reward of $300. offer- ed by the Governor of the State for his apprehension and delivery. He is charged with the robbery and murder of Miss Caroline Thompson, and robbing the house of James Thompson in Alexander County in June last. Some time since a young man named Dockery, charged with complicity with and knowledge of that outrage, was arrested and after examina- tion committed to jail, where he bas been ever since. A few days ago he confessed his being engaged with Church in the robbery at ‘Thompsons and present but taking no partin the murder: says it was done by Char to conceal the knowledge of the robbery; He also gave an account of their movements after the murder, and gave soch information ag has since led to finding the clothes worn by himself and Chureh, hid out, and which were here on the trial so-day. Church had an examination to-day be- fore a magistrate’s court where Dockery his associate was examined by the prose- cuting attorneys Linney & Jones, and cross examived by Church himself, he not being able to obtain cot nsel the two resi- dent Lawyers being employed by the prosecution, This preliminary examina- tion satisfies all who heard it that the right parties are bow in the hands of the officers of the law, Excitement is very strong against them especially Church ; and while no violence is anticipated yet there is a strong feeling in favor of close care and diligence jn their safe keeping as will prevent any possible escape from the just penalty of their cyime. ‘They were both remanded to jail at the close of the esawination this evening. . eee Women are everywhere ysing and recommending Parker's Ginger Tonic, because they have learped from experi- ence tlrat it speedily overcomes despon- dency, indigestion, pain or weakness jn the back aud kidneys, and otber troubles Deculiar to the sex.— /Zome Journal.

CARLTON, “Mayor of Port Huron and Chairman Relicf Committee.” ——— et aa History oF Rowan Cocnty.— Rev. Jeth- ro Rumple, of the Presbytcrian church of Salisbury, has collected and had published in book form, his sketches of Rowan coun- ty, some of which will be remembered as having appeared in the Carolina Watchman. The book is entitled “A History of Rowan County,” but contains sketches of many men and families who belong ‘to Western North Carolina... It is a subject of wonder how Mr. Rumple, busily occupied as he has been continually in his ministerial labors, could have collected so many recon- dite facts, some of them not only interest- ing as family memoirs, but shedding great light on the general history of Western Carolina. Anecdote, incident, reminis- cence and narrative abound in the sketches. Those who are at all familiar with Mr. Ruin ple’s accomplishments in composition will not be surprised to learn that the style is | graphic and scholarly.—Charlotte Obserter. y a _ White talking about seancity of grain and starvation, read the following para- graph: “Grain is fowing into Baltimore so fast from the West that nothing can be done | with it. The wheat there is held largely | for speculative purposes, and cannot be | inoved. AH places of storage are filed, | and thousands of cars are standing on the | track which cannot be unleaded, the el- | evators being already crowded. | What ought to be done with the men | who hoard grain and gamble on it when | the people need it at a fair price for bread f | It is bad enough to gamble in cotten, but | when it comes to gambling in breadstuffs, in the midst of a great drouth, a law of some sort should interpose.—Charlotte | Denocrat. —— —-_~<—>+- PREPARE FOR A FrResueT.—A theory is advanced, with plausability, that during the long continued dry, hot weather, a vast amount of water has been evaporated from the ocean and now remains io suspension | in the clouds, aud that at an early day these clouds will pour out floods of rain, causing overflows in vers and creeks. Hence it is suggested that all corn on low lands be immediately cut, stalk and all, and stacked on high land, to avoid de- struction by freshets if they should occur. An old farmer telis us that it will not hurt the corn to cut the stalk and place it in a safe place; that the ear will dry just as well on such cut ‘stalk as if it was left standing where it grew. It would be well for farmers to consider the suggestion.— Charlotte Democrat. ° -—>-——_—__— Our next legislature must take steps to protect the State against railroad mouop- olies.

How the Apostle’s Died. Peter was crucified at Rome, and at his own request, with his head downward. Andrew was crucified by being bound to a cross with cords, on which he hung two days, exhorting the people until he died. James the Great was beheaded by order of Herod, of Jerusalem. James the Less was thrown from a high pinnacle, then stoned, and finally killed with a fuller’s club. Philip was bound and hanged against s illar. Bartholomew was flayed to death by command of a barbarous king. Matthew was killed by a halbert. Themas, while at prayer, was shot with a shower of lances, and afterward run through the body with a lance. Simon was cruciticd. Thaddeus was cruelly put to death. The manner of Matthias’ death is uncer- tain. One says he was stoned, then be- headed ; another says be was crucified. Judas Iscariot fell apd bis bowels gushed out. Jobn died a natural death. Paul was beheaded by order of Nero, —_—— PS ee The amount of taxable property in Geor- gia has increased within the last year from $12.000,000 to $15,000,000.

We hate some persons because we do not know them; and we will not kuow them because we hate them. Those friendships that succeed to such aversions are usually firm —for those qualities must be sterling that could not only gain our hearts, but conquor our prejudices, _ A newspaper agent, being told by an old lady that-it was no use to sub- scribe for the papers, as Mother Ship- ton ssid the world was coming to an end this year, said: “But won’t you want to read an account of the whole affair as soon as it isover?” “That I will, answered the old lady: and she subscribed. - The Philadelphia Bulletin says: “Here’s a positive fact that occurred in one of the public schools in this city recently: A small boy was asked to name some part of his own body.

The business of raising fast horses is altogether distinct from the business of the farmer. It is a source of excitement to see a horse race, but when a farmer thinks the horse he sees rading is the one he ought to have on his farm he makes a mistake. The heavy Norman horse would be more profitable than the one that was simply a racer.” ee GB ea SinGuLAR PENNY SURSCRIPTION. —The Cincinnati Commercial’s penny subscription for C. A.

Chambers had been run into tbe cliff from nearly opposite sides, and charged with fourteen thousand pounds of powder. The cliff was of basalt, projecting into the river, above which it stood, at the height of about one hundred and fif- ty feet.

In shaft Nol, they aredown 160 feet, and have started the level for No. 2, 400 feet dis- tant. They are sinkingin No.2, and s soon as they reach 160 will drift toward No. 1. They have a level from Nos. 1 to 2 at 70 feet, and they propose to open one at every 50 feet. They are now taking from a four fout vein, 25 tons per day of rich salphurets rites. This ore assays very high. A large building, 60x75, has been plan- ned, and the timbers are now being got- ten oat. Thisis to used for conceutra-. ting.

Two 6 inch Cornish pumps and two 25 horse hoists lift water and ore pe Hoover Hill GOLD MINING COMPANY OF LONDON. —_— This property is situated in Randolph County, and is J8 miles south of High Point, the nearest station on the Rich- mond and Danville road, and comprises 250 acres. | It was incorporated in London, England, in February of this year, and has a capi- tal stock of $600,000, divided into 120,000 shares. Paid up capital, and non as- sessable. The vein stone is a calciferons quartz, imbedded in a dark chloretic slate; changing sometimes to a silico arenea- cous slate. The vein proper carrying about 2 per cent of sulphurets, possibly containing galepa and sulphurets of silver. We were informed that the company did not care to make known to the public the value of the ore per ton; nor the amount produced. This information may be obtained by any stockholder by addressing the office in London. They are working three shafts, the Gallimore, the Briols and anew shaft near the Hawkins. ‘ They are down inthe Gallimore 110 feet- -now drifting out on the 70 fvot level. Briols is down 120 feet—workiug ona diift. This is connected with the Galli- more by tunnel. Tn the new shaft they are down 69 feet hand sinking — This shaft hear the Hawhins and is designed totuke the place of that shaft, it being unsafe. The old warkings fell in years ago, and a new shaft was considered eheaper than to clear the old one. ‘This has beeu known us a mine for 50 years, but no estimate of theamount taken out could be gotten, as it was worked by private parties. The hill is litterally ‘gophered” s0 tospeak: small open shafts, cross cuts aud the like, all dove before the present company took hold. Mr. Renfry, the Superintendent, hasa well defined plan for developing the property. He proposes to ruy a tan- nel from the eastern side to the western, first striking the new shaft at 609 feet, thence tothe Gallimore in direct line, is 500 feet—whole distance 1100 feet. Of this, 225 feet is done. As soon as the Rand drills can be set to work, they ex- pect to make 120 fect per month. When this tuunel is complete, and the wills have tested the result, the destiny of Hoover Hill will be known—it will either bea mine, or it will not. In its present condition it would be unjust to judge it—this time next year will settle it—but give the mine a chance before it is condemned. BUILDINGS AND IMPROVEMENTS. The first thing that strikes the eye is the huge mill house 47x95 feet—four stories, withengine house, 44x47 attached. Twen- tv staipps are running and there is room for 20 more. They have a 5 foot fan and 8 foot settler. Above the battery is a Blake crusher, 9x15; a75 horse evgine furnishes the power. They have an Assay Office and fixturcs complete, over which Mr. C. P. Sawyer, of the Columbia School of Mines, pre- sides. He enjoys another distinction— that of being the only man on the Hill who receives a stated salary ~ which apeaks well of the economy of the work. The Compress building, 36x40, con- tains 50 horse boiler which will run the pumps and surnish air for 5 Rand drills. The Company has an office—also about a dozen comfortable cabins for the winers. They have 6 iron cara, anda train voad connecting mill and mine, 1300 foet. The ore goes iu the fourth story of miil house, en tram, passes over screens to crusher and thence to ore bins (capa- city of 200 tons each) and thence to ore fecders. From the battcry over free with blankets, Every thing seems to be conducted in a sensible, business like way, and the whole work lovks as if conducted on the most economical plans, There are about 2090 tons of ore on the dumps—o]ld and new.

Why the Adams Reduction Works Have Suspeuded. Cuanotre, N. C., Sept. 20, 1881. To the Editor of the Obsercer; The Adams Mining and Reduction Company was obliged to suspend operations on the 25th of June, 1881, in consequence of a mest severe fit of sickness 6f ‘the President of the company, who had thé'gole suyerin- tendence of the construction of the works, withont whom nothing could be done. This protracted sickness lasting now over eleven wecks,. and disabling President Adams from even rising from his bed, was occasioned by a most malignant fever of the typhoid type. Dr. Jones, one of the most distinguished physicians in Charlotte, was my physician, and I refer to him to confirm the truth of my statements. The feyer has been checked, and TJ am now slowly recovering under the efficient treat- ment of Dr. Jones. The splendid plant of the Adams Mining and Reduction Company will be resumed and prosecuted to completion at an early day, and a&soon as President Adams shall have recovered sufticicntly to take charge of the same, which is expected to be within two er three weeks. The public will not be disappointed, and all the original plans will be faithfully carried ont. Respectfully youre, . Henny W. ADAMS, President of A. M. and R. Co. P.8.

What happiness can there be in life? If we are not weil, itis a blessed thing to know low to re- gain health. I offer this knowledge, freely and withont price, to the whole world: “Take Braxpreiius VEGETABLE Pinus whenever you are sick.” It is now nearly flfty years since | introduced these pills tothe American people. and, after using fifty millions of box- ex, the verdict of the great jury of American sovereigns is, that they are the bert and safest purgative ever known. They havecompletely superceded mercnryane bleeding, which was found in very general use in this country fifty yeara ago. I said thatthe one was poisonous and the other a murderous treatment. the remedial power of nature hac notonly to cnre the disease, but to eradicat« mercurial poisons and supply new streams o! blood to exhausted patients. which was too much for any constitution; that my plan of treatment was to remove disease by purifying the blood with Brandreth’s Pills, for when the blood was thus made pure, the medical force of nature cimeinto full play, and. unless God willed otherwise, the patient war sure to re- cover. Brandreth’s Pills assist nature in all her efforts. It is nature that cures discasgand not medicine. Every other conise of treat- ment only throws great obstacles in the way of the constitution. Iam happy to say that bleed- ing, which I said was always improper, har been generally abandoned by the medical pro- fession, and that the poisonous qnalitics ofmer enry have been so far recognized that the use of it has been forbidden in the United States Army, by the Surgeon-General, In the calen- dar for 1881, T publish numerous cases of cures by Brandreth’s Pills, some of them eo remark- able as to be little short of miraculous: But they aretrue, and the witnesses can be seen and consulted. If Brandreth’s Pills.were used in every family, each box would bea magazine of health and a perfect medicine chest. OBSERVE, that Brandreth’s Pills, taken on an empty rtom- ach, creafé no nausea, vomiting, or griping.

ROBERT B. VaNog. Riverside, N. C., Sept. 1881, Sa Re I The New President. Chester A. Authur, President of the United States, was» born in Franklin county, Vermont, Oct. 5, 1830, and is now just completing the 5Jst year. His father was the Rev. Dr. William Arthur, » Baptist clergyman, who came to this. country from Antrim, Ireland, in his youth, and who beeame distinguished not only asa divine but as am author. Gen. Arthur was educated in the Union College,.whére he graduated in class of 1849, After completing his education he tanght school two years in Vermont, and having saved a part of his salary, moved to New York and entered the office of Jndge Cuvier as a student of tho law. On admission to the bar he formed a co- partnership with Henry D. Gardiner, and achieved success from the start. Shortly afterwards Gen., Authur married the daughter of Lieutenant Herndon, of the United States navy, who so bravely met his death at sea aa to justify, Congress in awarding to his widow a gold medal com- memorative of his heroism aud bravery. Gen, Arthur held some staff appoint- ment in the New York militia prior to the war, and during the war became Quartermaster-General on the staff of Governor Morgan of that State. In dis- charging the duties of this office, ata time of much corruption and indiscreet accep- tunce of gifts, Gen. Arthur maintained a virtuous deportment and left the office where millions could have been improp- erly accumulated as poor as was when he entered it, On retiring to private life upon the expiration of Gov. Morgan's term, he devoted himself again to the practice of the law. ee THe WasHourt on THE W.N.C.R. R. —Five trains—three freight and two pas- sehgey-—aye detained beyond Morganton by washouts op the Western North Caro- Ijpa Railroad. A trestle 40 feet high and 60 feet long, four miles beyond Morgan- ton, is entitely gone, and there are four other washouts of greater or less* impor- tance. The trains have been stopped for three days and it will probably take sev- eral days more before the washouts can be filled in so as to admit uninterrupted passage, The rains which caused these washouts were very heayy and Jasted continuously from Thursday till Sanday, The damage to the roa is said to be greater than ever before from waahouts,— Charlotte Observer. Oe Se ap The Board of Aldermen, at a meeting on Monday laat, settled the liqnor ques- tion for the present, at least, by granting permission to retni] liquor on Tryon, Trade and Cujlege streets, and fixing the license at $75 for beer and $300 for both beer and spirits, $200 less than Mr. Wal- ker (a wet Alderman) proposed at a pre- vious meeting, When we get hald of the Ordinance as passed we will pabliah it, and let the public see its official shape: One of the dry Aldermen, D. P. Hutchi- gon, helped to break the dead look by voting with the wets. The Probibition Ordinances had long been a dead letter.— Charlotte Observer. ee aye If W.

Mr. Wolfte’s conclusion, aud he isa shrewd judgo of nen and of things, is that ‘the South is destined to supply the country and a good part of the world, not with raw cot- ton, but with cotton goods of every varie- ty,” and he thinks *‘that the sooner the Massachusetts manufacturers realize this new rivalry and goes over to it the better for him.” The Soath, old as she is, hus just started, in Mr, Wolffe’s opinion, 1 new and splendid development, The demand for room in Atlanta has been so great that an additional building costing $10,000 has been erected in the Exposition grounds.

The doctors have hopes of his recovery, though they fear his eyesight is lost totally. The negro Lee lived until 2 o’clock the next day. Albert who seems conscious of what happened, says that Lee told him before they went down that he had taken the cap off the cartridge and there was no danger of its exploding. As Albert was being drawn up, he mumbled something about “it fooled” him, Whether the accident was the result of pure carelessness is not known, | but it is certain that had the two men been duly cautious, no such a terri- ble ending would have happened. The accident at the Phoenix mine was somewhat of the same nature,though not so bad in its results. A negro named Town Fisher, with the boss, Mr. Mooney and Mr. Robert Hall- man, were drilling out a blast, which had failed to fire, when it exploded. All three were stunned and injured, the negro more seriously than any. It was thought he had lost his cyes, but Dr. Farr says now that they. are all right. One day the same week, a brother of Mr. Hamilton was badly injured down in the mine, by a falling bucket of rock. His injuries are painful but not serious.— Concord Sun, ——__—+—ae The Best Plan. If our farming friends will hear a suggestion on the subject of getting relief in regard tothe payment of bills for commercial fertilizers, we would say that the best plan to pur- sue is for ‘each one that has suffered badly by the* drought to go to the person or persons he owes and make ashowing of his assetsand get such relief as the dealer can afford. We don’t suppose that it is possible to get a general deduetion for all alike, for while one man has suffered the loss of almost his entire crop, anoth- er has not suffered near so much, while another probably is not entire- | ly dependent on his crop for resources. So you see that it will be necessary for each individual to make his ewn arrangements with those he owes for fertilizers, either by compromise, de-] duction or extension of time, If you can pay but little, convince your creditor of that fact, and we believe relief of some sort will begiven. If you are able to pay. half or aJl, do so, and show a dispositiop to do all you honestly can. It should be remembered that the merchant who bought fertilizers from the manufioturers, and then sold them to farmers, will also need relief of some sort, and there is not much prospect of the manufacturer extend- ing substantial aid to him (the mer- chant.) Butall should accommodate and forbear as much as possible, and. we have no doubt that those who. admitted-that it bore his trne’ signa- ture, but solemnly protested that he had not ‘received one dollar from Ward and had: never entéred Ward’s house in his life, for any purpose. He declared that he was ruined, and that he and his wife would be made home- less by a false receipt which he could not explain, but which he never knowingly signed. On cross-exemi- nation, Livingston, who was an-old man, admitted that his memory was very infirm and that he had on a pre- vious occasion received a payment of two hundred dollars from another debtor of his which he afterwards had denied receiving, but which he recalled to memory when shown his receipt. - @ The plaintiff and his counsel at this stage of the proceedings were in utter despair, for their cause was apparent- y lost. Judge Mackey, however, Whose subtle brain and practiced eye nothing can escape, ahd who follows crime through all its windings, direct- ed that the receipt should be handed to him. He then ordered the Sheriff to proceed to the nearcst drug store and purchase a drachm of “muriatic acid, and a small piece of sponge. On the return of the officer with the ar- ticles named, the Judge said to the plaintiff, “Mr. Livingston, did you ever write a letter to the defendant, Ward, demanding payment of your money?” The plaintiff answered : “Yes, sir, I wrote him many letters but never received an answer from him.” Judge Mackey then observed to counsel, “I perceive that on the face of this receipt there are several peculiar brown spots and the original surface or sizing of the paper has been removed, except in that portion of the paper where the signature was writ- ten. The body of the receipt is ir the hand-writing of the defendant. In my opinion the defendant has ta- ken a letter of the plaintiff’s and re- woved the writing with muriatic acid, and then-wrote the receipt above the signature. I will now apply this acid to the writing on the baek of the complaint in this case, and it will be seen that the writing will instantly disappear and the paper will at once exhibit several brown spots identical with those on this reccipt.” The acid was applied to the paper, and as the writing disappeared the brown blots were seen upon its surface and the crime of the defendant was clearly re- vealed | Ward at this juncture Jook as hor- ror-stricken as Lady Macbeth, when gazing upon her fair, but murderous hand, she exclaimed as she vainly rubbed it, “Out dittined spot !” The Judge immediately rendered his decision in favor of the plaintiff, stating that it was the duty of the So- licitor to have Ward prosecuted at once for his audac:ons forgery. On the next morning Judge Mackey lett for Georgetown, forty miles distant, to hold court. While there he receiv- ed a letter from a friend warning him not to retarn to Williansburg, as he had promised to do, in a few days, for the purpose of hearing an argu- manifest the proper spirit will got sx |gqent at Chambers, as Ward had sworn much relief as circumstances wilfi}salemuly to shoot him down at sight. rmitand justify, —. We think the above plan is the best one that can be suggested; in fact the only one that will be serious- ly entertained by dealers or mannfac- turers. Each man must attend to his own individual case and act for him- self. We have been asked to give our views on the matter, and we do not think wecan suggest a better plaa than the above, or one that will re- ceive more serivus consideration by those interested. We heartily sym- The Judge’s record, however, shows that he is not one to swerve from the line of duty because of an armed ene- my ia his path. He returned to Williamsburg after an absence of five days, and meeting Ward upon the street demanded whether he had threatened to take his life. Ward an- swered that he had, but that he had abandoned his purpose. At the next term of the court Ward was indicted and placed un trial for forgery. When the verdict of “guilty” was rendered, Ward rose and discharged his pistol pathize with the ‘unfortunate suffer- | ers by the drought, and think that | the manifestation of a proper and honest purpose will bridge over many difficulties and affvrd reliet to those who are really in distress.-Char.Dem. twice at Livingston, the prosecuting witness, one of the balls passing thro’ his coat.

Deqr ‘Bditor: Yn mswer te “Young Furmer” I with endesvorto the: best of my: ability to perform the task, hoping he may be benefitted by my so doing. In regard to the soil, I havo'a yariety of soils; some red ciay, some a dark clay very bad ta shift from plow with a very tight red clay subsoil, same sandy with a light clay subsoil—this is my worst wheat Jand, although I- have had as good wheat on this as any Ihave. Besides] have same land that seems to be mixed with some sand, clay and loam. I have in my red and dark clay land alluvial flats, which are the beat spots for wheat, as the land is here better. In regard to the 8$-acre field. which this year mude 819 bushels of wheat, it is mostly the dark clay with some spots 6f red clay. This field ten or twelve years- ago would not actually have made three bushels of wheat per acre. It was literally worn out. I have seen it in oats when they did not get a foot high. Immediately after the surrender [ turned this field out for three or four years to get rid of the sassafras sprouts with which it was almost covered. At the end of this time I gave it a slight coating of manure and sowed jit to wheat. It mage nearly ten bushels to the acre, as well as IT remember. I sowed it to peas after barvcst and the next year made about the same amount of wheat, having turned the peas before sowing. The next -year I planted about one-half the field in cotton and the remainder in peas. The cotton made about five or six hundred pounds of seed cotton per acre; the peas made vines, byt no peas. I then sowed to wheat, turn- ing under pea vines and manuring all I could. From this I reaped ‘about 15 bushels per acre. I sowed it to clover that spring and let it lic in clover the next year, Leaders, Rev. H. M. Brown and Mr. @.

The men were carpenters working on the railroad bridge at Beaver Falls and were on their Way to work. One of the men on the hand ear fell on the track and had his head sever- ed from his body. torn to pieces, his remains being seattered all over the front of the locomotive, and three others were dashed on the track be- low, a distance of fifty feet, two being insfantly killed and the other so severely injured that he Another was eannot recover, man escaped unhurt. The train was im- | mediately stopped and Drs. Smith, Town- send and Ford, of Washington, who were on the train, rendered all the medical aid in their power to the injured. - <P Does the Dreught do any Good ? Ths effect of a season of long continu- ed drought is to improve the fertility’ of. the soil. During such a season the water in the soil is continually rising to the surface by capillary attraction and js there evaporated, It is preciscly the re- verse of the leachiug process... Too much rain passing down through an open soil, has the effect of leaching out the inorgan- ictelements and carrying them down be- | yond the reach of the roots of the plants. | This of course has the effect of impover- ishing the soil by depriving it of those clements necessary to the growth and maturity of plants. On other hand when a drought sets in the moisture from below which hold in solution small por- tions of potash, soda, magnesia aud phosphoric acid commences to rise, and as it evaporates from the surface it leaves behind it in the soil near the surface those jnorganic elements, Just as salt wa- ter when evaporated will leave the salt behind. In both cases orJy the pure wa- ter escapes, All matters held in solution remain. The effect of dronght therefore is to bring up from the subsoil the ele- | ments mentioned and to depasit them near the surface for the use of plants. It follows from this that soils are improved by drought, provided the amount of wa- ter necessary to the growth of a crop is forthcoming. All of this goes to prove that the svila of the drought stricken gec- tions are now ina good condition to re- ceive the Fall sowiug of rye, oats and wheat with the promise of a remunera- tive return. Sow rye on sandy land and | oats or wheat on stiffer Jands, The rye} will afford excellent pasture for cattle or sheep.

Rice cutting is now going on on the rivers and it is therefore easy to ascertain the extent of the loss. Much of the rice was blown clear off the stalks and was scattered on the ground, while in other instances fy] that much will be lost in the cutting. per ceuf. will cover the loss and this may be evualized*by an increase in the price. The highest price obtained here last year for lowland rice was about $1.40 per bushel, but it is said that offers of $1.50, have been made already this season. The disasters to the crop in South Carolina will, of course, have no effect on the market. It is expected that the first rough rice will reach the market this sea- ton Star. So a a = The New York Tribune penitently ob- serves that the surest way of keeping the standards of our journalism high, and of raising them, is for that portion of the public which knows the value and neces- sity of a dignified and able press to with- hold its support altogether from newspa- pers which enter to depraved tastes and are reckless of the truth, aud to give it to newspapers which ean safely be taken into the family, and are not only decent but just. The people, however, owe it to themselues to be liberal in support of “decent and just papers,’ and should not foster those sensational sheets which deal in vile stuft--unfitted for the family cir- cle.

Taking into considera- tion the fact that Will never had a broth- er David, there would- have been some reason for lis believing that his would- be nephew was mistaken, but old Will, as usual averse to contradiction, let him have it his own way, but inwardly repu- diated the relationship.

The recent robbing of a train on the Chicago and Alton Railroad in Missourri was one of the most daring and succesa- ful outrages that was ever perpetrated. Sixtecu men are believed to have been engaged in it, many of whom have been captured. We don’t believe in mob law, but we do believe in speedy justice, and we put more faith in the gibbet than in the penitentiary. It is perfectly sicken- ing to read in the newspapers about mur- derers and burglars and highway robbers and rapists being sent to the penitentia- ry for two, five and ten years. There is a way to Stop crime, and it shonld be put into execution. Let the capital criminal be tried within thirty days after the of- tence, and if condemned, let him be exe- cuted three days thereafter. Scciety is not bound to allow criminals ample time to prepare for death. Irit is, it onglit to give every murderer at least twenty years, for he needs it. Society should take the steps for preventing crime, and if criminals understand that death cer- tain and immediate awaits every villian who commits a capital felony, they will begin to realize that although this a free country nevertheless it is a country of law.—Fayetteville Examiner. So Philadelphia Times: The Methodist Episcopal congregation of South Easton entertain pronounced views on the sub- ject of Guiteau’s crime and do not hesi- tate to make them public. On Sunday they adopted a serics of resolutions more or less original and striking in their sen- timeuts, one of them embodying the as— sertion “that the assassination was the most henious crime committed since the erncifixion of Christ, and in comparison with Guiteau, Judas Iscariot was a gen- tlemyn.” When people calling themselves Chris- tians talk in that style is it any wonder there are Ingersolls in the land ? —- He Steals a Girl, Excites the People and Week before last a tall, thin man, “wearing an old flax coat and dirty breeches,” with the ttvo middle fingers of The Senate, From the Wilmington Star, There is no doubt of two things in connection with the approaching ex- tra session of the U. 8. Senaie, The Senate must be organized before. new members -are sworn in; to organize includes the election of officers. With- out officers there can be in fact no or- ganization according ta. Jong usage and all parliamentary law. A Presi- dent or Speaker or Chairman is es- sential to organization. The second point is, that the Democrats will doubtless elect one of their arty friends President. Mr, Bayard will be the choice probables The Demo- crats can gain nothing by a useless and absurd parade of so-called politi- cal genercsity and magnanimity. The New York Times is the ablest of Re- publican papers. Jt takes this view, and it is the correct one, and should silence partisan growlers. It says; “These three Senators, however, cannot be sworn in until there is a President of the Senate to accept the oath or affirmation required of them by law. The first business of the Senate will be to choose a President and in this the Democrats will have a clear majority, This done, the new members will be sworn in open Sen- ate, according to law, the oath being administered by the President of the Senate. The newly elected President of the Senate may be sworn in by the Secretary of the Senate or by the eldest Senator (in continuous service) then present. But, although a Vice President of the United States may be sworn into office by the Secretary of the Senate, there is no precedent for the swearing in of a Senator by any that officer except the President of the Senate, and therefore, the election of officer must precede the entrance into office-sof new Senators,” _ OS The North Corolina State Band at Yorktown.

EN: Y. Heralj. One of the most recent of advauce sheets of the fortheoming ceusus volumes throws a bew and most encouraging light on the industrial condition of the South. Prior to the late war the landed estates of the | Southern portion of the republié were the largess iu the world. I» the British empire and ou the Continent of Europe there were some few nobles and princes } who Gwned more acres than any South- taken asa class, the world ever gave the evidence of | erful Jand aristocracy the saw. And they their power in waging for four years oue Ln tie greatest wars history has recorded. At the close of the rebellion Mr. Thadde- us Stephens had a conception wore or less | clear of the danger to the country arising out of this vast landed monopoly, and he ‘sought to change it by legislation. It was his favorite theory when emancipa- tion had been effected that every freed- ‘mab should have forty acres. Having | conquered the South in battle ie was jn | favor of confiscation of at] Southern land- ed property. So extremea measure could not, of course, succeed. Theend he aim- ed at, however, is in a fair way of being accomplished ju another way and by | purely natural agencies. Agccarding to the figures of the census the vast estates ,are being broken up at a rate that in the course ot ten years will give the South as large a number of landed proprietors as any other portion of the country. In Georgia, for lustance, there were at the beginning of the war only sixty-two thousand Janded proprictors. To-day 'there are more than twice that number. Tho same is true of Alabama, Arkansas, Florida and Virgivia. Planter rule in the South is-passing away, in fact has passed ‘away, aug what may be ealled that of peasant proprietorship has begun. —=2 aps A History or Rotvan County, North Caroliua.

They are convenient of ap; plication, and safe for all, being incapable of producing any injurious effects.

The great Mott | said: “They were all that could be hoped for | ina plaster—simple, cleanly and adhesive; verfect as arlifcial supporters of the muscles ; | \ c { : aia for pains, because of their counter-jrritant | The VAN WINKLE Cotton Gin qualities, usually at once giving ease.” Local | weakness of the back, breast and side, always | benefited, thus curing lumbago in a few hours, | —— sometimes ina few minutes.

The Porous Plasters are flexible, and found of great help to ‘those who have weak backs, or pains in the side. Especially afe they val- unble to those who have neglected colds.

This ' simple plan will soon produce constitutional | vigor that will enable one to yesiat ex{raordj— nary changes of temperature.

The President assigns as his reason for this that these gentle- meu, having initiated those prosecutions, itis eminently proper that they should, in jusice to every interest concerned, con- duct them to the end.” ee ee This may be a very great country. It may be “the land of the free and the home of the brave.” It may be the home of much that is toble and good. It cer-. tainly is the paradise of gamblers. Here without let or hindrance, men of great wealth gamble in stocks, in cotton and in provisions.

I feel convinced that what was passing had reached this horse, and that being of a nervous temperament, the poor animal had been troubled to the painful extent we had witnessed. “Another example of a different kind: It often happened that I was away from the company for weeks and mouths at a stretch, and on some of these occasions I had to return along the same road by which the cireus was crossing, thus meet- ing the vans, one after the other all down the line. When yet there was some dis- tance between myself and the nearest van, my horse would scent or see the nearest van-horse, and salute him with a loud neigh. This would be at once an- swered by the van-borse, which seemed to pass the signal to the rear down the line, Where it was taken up from horse to herse to the very end, perhaps threc- quarters ofa mileaway. Then, asI rap- idly drove by and met the vans, each horse would turn toward mine as he pass- ed, greeting him with a friendly aud joy- ous neigh; apparently holding a shoit conversation in passing, as though wel- coming each other after a separation.

According to Mr. Jacoby whenever y member of a family— human or other—attains to any remark- able pre-cminence in mental ability, such a pre-cminence is at the expense of pos- terity, and the family by its ultimate ex- tinction pays the penalty of its temporary eclat.

On Tcresday Sept. 20, a brutal murder was committed on the Jeffer- son road, in Wilkes, about 12 miles fron Wilkesboro. “Bud” McNeal and Natlan Tripps had been to a still house and had with them 2 gallons of whiskey, which they had been drinking. As they walked aleng, they made the determination to “kill the first man they met!” That hap- less person wasa Mr. Walker frum Alexander, a hard workirg man who was on his way from Ore Knob where he had secured a job of work. After the killing, the twe wretches walked on their way, and-pretty soon met an acquaintance, and told him they just meta man and given him “hell.” Walker died in’ about a half hour after he was wonnded— (we are unable to learn by what. means he was wounded.) He leaves a wife and thirteen children, McNeal and Cresp were arrested, on the pext day, and committed to Wilkesuoro jail.

The French Broad has the greatest altitude of any river on the North American con- the sea. A Northern writer says of it: “From the deck of this little steamer tho tourist will see grand sights, views as fascinating though different, as these of the Bay of Naples. Every bend jp the river will seem to turn for you the circle of hills. The loftier mountains watching for the coming of the Mountaiu Swan (as IT hope they will name her) stand silent and sublime.

This is regarded as ‘without support in ade- quate cause, seeing that the R. & D. Co. is energetic in the performange of their part of the contract.

The ametdment offered by Edmunds to Pendlete’s resolution, gave rise to a short discusion, but was finally rejected —yeas 33, Inys B4. Mahone aid Davis of MWinois, voting with the Rpublieans, Edmundethen proposed an amendment providing fat Thomas F. Bayard shall be elected presiding: officer for this day ouly and aizued in support of the amend- ment, contding that it would comply with both be letter and spirit of the law and would low the Statea af New York and Rhode sland to have a voice in the election of i permanent president pro tem, The amendment is still under diseus- sion, Mr. Morgan at preseut having the floor. In movitg his amendment that the oath be at &rce administered to the new Senatoys, Elmands said no reason had been given pr this attempt to exclude two States fon any yoice in the organi- zatjon of the Senate, so he would take the liberty t) state the reason himself. The Senate jad met under extraordjnary circumstance, occassioned by events the consequenceof which might haye put it within the lwal technical power of 9 bare majority of ‘he States conditionally te provide for the presidential succession and to provjdd for it, when if their sister States were mneulted, 9 different provis- ion might be made, and to firoyjde for jt now was to éxclude the chosen represen- tatives of two States who stood here peas dy to do their duty. He believed if there Was not some question ulterjgr to this mere one of electing a presiding officey there was not a siugle Senator who would vote “20” apon his proposition. Garland dediucd to make any reply to the intimation that the Democratic Sena- tors had some ulterior object. in view, They believed that they were acting lawfully and had no apologies to make to the Senator from Vermont, or any other person or body of persons, If they made a mistake jt was a mistake which they would regret. The only object of calling the Senate together so far as the country knew was to place some one between this goverment apd pos- sible anarchy in the case of the death or taking away by any means of the present President of the United States; hence it wasa high duty and a great duty which preceded all others ip jm portance to elect at once a President pro tem. It ranked the question of swegrigg in a Senater and all other questions, The Democratic side proposed decently and in order and accord- ing to law to fill a possible gap at the ear- liest possible moment. Of cgurse he did not deny thgt by a unanimous consent the law of 1879, which the senator from Ver- mont had referred to, could be set aside, but he asserted that the. Democratic - side preferred to stand upon the statute in per- forming their important duty. After some further debate, Edmunds’ If come to orler and the clerk will report not object tothe present consideration of the resolution, but he thought that under existing circymstances it was his duty to present the credentials of the Senators munds moved that the oath of office be Davis, of Wlinvis, voted with the Re- mendment was lost—yeas 83, nays + Edmands\then, hat Bosard \be be tem. br this @ay only, a. _ Beckhconfpssed his inability to understand. why the President pro tem. should be elect- ed for thia day and another election held to-morrow, If the recent Vice-President, had followed precedents and allowed .a President pro tem. to be elected at the last session of the Senate, there would have been now'no necessity for convening this special session. The Democratic side was now taunted with. seekin’ to do an inde- cent thing because it did not give unani- mous cunsent to propositions made in con- travention of the law of the land, Edmunds said; The fruit which the Dem- ocratic-party might gain by their present course would turn to ashes of the bitterest description. But that was for the future, for the present it was his mission to appeal to the Democrats by precedents of that par- ty, by the spirit and letter of the constitu- tion, to give New York and Rhode Island a right to raise their voices with their sis- ter States in the choice of a presiding offi- cer, There used to be a saying, “Oh, shame, where is thy blush,” but he believed that modera shame had lost her blush and that it had come to be the fixed purpose of any temporary or accidental power in this body to exclude their fellows and their equals until they could grasp something which if their equals were admitted they could not grasp. Morgan congratulated the Senate upon the exhibition this morning of the fact that a Senator from Vermont after having by his vote frequently participated in exclud- ing sovereign States from a voice in the Senate, had at last come to the conclusion that Senators must be admitted whenever their credentials were read without an op- portunity being given for investigation or inquiry. Ile argued in favor of the right of the Democrats to elect a presiding offi- cer, and said that it seemed to him an in- trusion on the freedom of will for the Sen- ators on the other sideto demand that the Democrats should yield the power which had been placed in their hands. Besides, constitutional questioss had been urged in regard to the lawful election of Senators elect to this body. Were the democrats to be blamed if they lent an ear to the com- plaints of the Republican party against the Legislature of New York. Mr. Beck denied that the majority which the Democrats had to-day was re- cidental. It has been brought aboat by the wrongful conduct of the Vice-Presi- dent and the foolish conduct of the two Senators from New York in throwing up their credentials. [Laughter and applause in galleries, which was promptly checked by the presiding officer.) i Preskdpat pro the three Senators elect had only been read this morning. It had been intimated that frauds prevailed in the Legislature of New York, and ic had also been urged that that Legislatare had not had power under the constitution tu elect Senators at the time they were elected. . The eriti- cisms by Mr, Edmunds in intimating that the Democats were attempting to grasp aprize made possible to them by an as- sassin who had struck down the President had had upon them no invocation for Democratic success, but the invoeetiou had been for a faction of the Republican party. If there was respousibility for the crime directly or indirectly it) rests upon hts political opponents and not with the Democratic party. The charge now wade by insinuation that the Demo- cratic party of the couatry had auything but atear for the dead President and sorrow for his) family and exeeration for the miseratle assassin, he declared to be absolutely false. He contended in the course of farther remarke that it was the duty of the Democratic party to elect a president pro tem, aud reca:led the phrase so often quoted at the last session of the Senate that the voice of the coustitution- al majority is the voice of God. The j Coustitutional majority to-day happened to be on the Demoeratic side, and of course, in the opinion of his Republican friends, its voice was scarcely i: divine utterance. Edmunds’ amendment was then reject- ed—yeas 33, nays 34. Edmunds then moved to strike out the name of Thos. F. Bayard, and insert that of Heury B. Anthony. Rejected— yeas 88, vays 34. Bayard aud Anthony being paired, the priginal resolution was then adopted. Yeas 84, nays 2. : Bayard waa escorted to the chair by Senator Anthony and Pendleton. On takjng the chair, Bayard, after acknowl}- edging the honor paid him said : ‘Weare all painfully reminded of the unusual cirpumstances under whieh we meet, and of the natjqual bereavement which hag caused this spegia}] segsjon of the Senate. May jt not be hoped, that toughed bya seuse of common sorrew, and chastened by a grief that penetrates every hoase- hold in one great family pf States, our proceedings may be marked by a spirit of concession and harmony and generqug consideration fur the mutual differgnees of opinion and softening of partisan as- perities and high inteyt to perform our duties in a mapper responsive to the de- mands of the gccasion and best intergst of our cammjon country ?

But we do not propose to go into description at this ; time. Will only add, that the vast agricul- ) taral resources of North Carolina are not ilikely to be made known at this big ‘show.

Besides this there was a considerable floating debt. Here then was atotal debt: variously estimated at from $170,000 to $210,000, aud to pay that debt what were the assets of the Town? The real estate of the town is assessed at sumething over half a million dollars and the personal poperty at three or four hundred thousand more. The people of Fayetteville sought relief from their crushing burden by compromising the Town Debt, aud aceordingly they ob- tained from the last General Assembly the passage of an Act, of which we pub- lished au abstract last week, authorizing the compromising of the bonded debt by the issuing of new bonds bearing interest at four per cent. per annum, and at the rate of fifty ceuts of new bonds of every dollar of the old bonds. These terms the bondholders thought proper to reject, and there was nothing left batto hold the election, the result of which we have announced. We might speculate ov the results of this and make predictions concerping the We do not regard it as an act of would have gladly retained their charter and wet fifty per cent. of the debt placed at four per ceut, interest.

Health is a great blessing. Disease is a wantof ease, and without the easiness and comfort of health, whatis wealth worth? What happiness can there be in life? If we are not well, it is a blessed thing tu know how to re- gain health. J offer this knowledge, freely and without price, to the whole world: “Take BRANDRETH’S VEGETABLE PILLS whenever you are sick.” It is now nearly fifty years since | introduced these pills to the American people. and, afier using fifty millions of box- ex, the verdict of the great jury of Awericun sovereigns ix, that they are the best and safest purgative ever known. They havecompletely superceded mercuryand bleeding, Which was found in very genera] use in this country fifty years ago. I said thatthe one Was poisonous and the other a murderous treatment, the remedial power of nature had notonly to cure the disease, but to eradicate mercurial poisons and supply new streams of blood to exhausted patients. which was too mneh forany constitution; that my plan of treatinent was (9 remoye disease by purifying the blood with Brandreth’s Pills, for when the blood was thns made pure, the medical force of nature cameinto full play, and. unless God willed otherwise, the patient was ture to re- cover. Brandreth’s Pilis assist neture in all her effurts. It is nature that cnres disease and not medicine. Every other course of treat- ment only throws great obetacjes in the way of the constitution. [um happy to say that bleed- ing, which Iv said was always improper, has been generally abandoned by the medical pro- fession, and that the poisonous qualities of mer- cury have been so far recognized that the use of it has been forbidden in the United States Ariny, by the Surgeon-General. In the calen- dar for 1881, T publish numerous cases of cures by Brandreth’s Pills, some of them so remark- able ax to be little short of miraculous: But they aretrue, and the witnesses can be seen and consulted, If Brandreth’« Pills were used in every family, each box would be a magazine OBSERVE, that Brandreth’s Pills, taken on an empty stom- ach, creale no nausea, vomiting, or griping. They do good any time, but are most eflective and agreeable taken on going to bed, when lit- tle, or better still, no supper haa been eaten. B. BRANDRETH. COSTIVENESS AND DISPEPSIA CURED.

According to the Colouel’s reading of the rajlroad slate, Charlotte is to become the terminus of the Western North Carolina, and Salis- bury, which did so much in the building of it, and thought she had a “sure thing,” is to subside into the merest way station. The Observer is pretty good at making up things to show as it wants them to, and exen at persuading others to think as it does. It isa little vexatious, however, to observe how bald absurdities are thus worked up to such a pitch as to disturbe the cquinimity of ccol headed men, and prepare them” for desperate deeds—to jump intoa yawning gulf, for instance, as a incaus of escaping an apprehended evil. But soberly, we cannot see what pro- priety there is in fearing that the Rich- moud and Danville Company intend to change their base. They are well fixed at the most important terminus of their most important property ; for sneeze at it if yon will, the Western North Carolina is destined in the near future, to become one of the most important roads in this State, South Carolina er Virginia. Its proprietors don’t want to sell it for abun- dant good yeasons, but they do want to complete its two branches and make con- nection with the west, ard then will be seen that the project was wisely conceived by its long headed founders, and that it will realize to its proprietors the brilliant expectations which have all the time stimulated its most ardent friends. It will be shortest route by from 75 to 100 miles reaching from West to East, and eastward—not southward—is the trend of trave! and orders, and westward the burdens of freight. It is a strange con- jecture that the Richmond and Danville should want the A. T. & O. for the pur- pose of playing any considerable part in its Eastern and Wesrern programme. It is not strange that the Columbia and Au- gusta should find it desirable as linking itself with the Western N. Carolina, and forming connection with Tennessee and the West. Such connection may promote la subordinate interest without damaging the principal, and such, we conjecture, is the full significance of the recent sale. It will not affect the present arrangement and grand design of the Western North Carolina, whose mission it is to connect ‘the East and West by the shortest line yet iu existenee.

Wasitneton, Oct. 13.— Lamar offered a resolution requesting the President to advise the Senate whether any aciion has Leen taken by the goverument since the last session of the Senate toward protect- ing the rights and interests of the United States in the project of the inter-oceanic canal at Panama. Laid on the table for future action. Edinunds called up his resolution con- tinuing the standing committees of the Senate as they were constituted at the last session, Garland offered an amendment provid- ing that only the following conymittees shall be continued; Foreign relations, finance, commerce, military affairs, judi- ciary, postofiices and roads, public layds, pensions aud Indian affairs. He contend- ed that the committees named were the only opes which would have any work to do during the special session. Mr. Edmunds opposed the amendment. | There were committees which were bot | provided for, which, in his opinion, would | be necessary in order to perform the work of the session, He instanced the mittee on privileges and elections as one which should be organized. There was on the table now a petition presented by the Senator from New Jersey (MePher- sop) said to seriously affect the right of a Senator from New York toa seat in this body that ought to be inquired into, Theu there was a committee on railroads which might have work to do. It was known from public report that there had been an important officer suspended for some supposed failure to perform his duty, and by law it was required that such suspen- sion should be reported to the Senate. The eommittee on coutingent expenses was also a necessary committee. Garland stated that he world modify his amendment so as to continne the com- mittees of privileges and electious and contingent expenses. He thought that it would then include all the committees which it would be necessary to organize at this time. Garland’s amendment was rejected. Yeas 35, uays 37—Davis, of Illinois, and Mahone votivg with the Republicans, Edmunds’ resolution was then adopted. Yeas 87, nays 35. The standing committees are therefore continued as constituted at the last ses- sion and the President pro tem, is au- thorized to fillany vacaney which may exist. As soon as the result was announced, Mr. Logan rose and offered a resolution for the appointment of David Davis, Sen- ator from IHinois, as President pro tem of the Senate. Pendleton asked that the resolution lie over one day under the rules, and it was so ordered. The Senate then, at 12:40, went into executive session. On the re-assembling of the Senate, Pendleton withdrew his objection to con- sidering the resolution contemplating the election of Davis President pro tem, Jones, of Florida, opposed the resolu- tion. He said that before the resolution was submitted to a vote he wished to re- iterate a protest which he had once made here on this subjeet, by denying the pow- er of the Senate to do this thing. It was said that this question was no longer open; that a precedent had been estab- lished in the Forty-fourth Congress by which the right of the Senate to choose at will its presiding officer had been af- firmed. He hoped that action of the Sen- ate would not be regarded as a prece- dent. Congress, by an act of 1792, had desig- nated that the presiding officer of the Senate should sneceed ip certain cuntin- gencies to the office of President of the United States. He eoutended that the President pro tem. having been once elected the constitution fixed the tenure of his offiee. A wiser precedent had nev- er been established by the Senate than com- tah, by Rev.

I am glad the question was taken up to- day. Davis, of Illinois, was then escorted to the chair by Bayard and Anthony, re- spectively, Democratic and Republican candidates for the same office, Qn taking the chair Davis said: Senators: The honor just conferred comes as the seat which I now oeecupy in this body did, without any expectation on my part, Ifit carried any party ob- ligations J should be constrained to @e- cline this high compliment. I do not acecpt it as @ tribute to any personal merit, but rather as a recognition of the independent position which I have long occupied in the politics of the country. I am profoundly grateful for this mark of confidence and it shall be my endeavor as it will be my duty to administer the trust with impartiality and with entire fairness. Not baving been trained to parliamentary practice I shall beg the indulgence of the Senate in this respect and I hope for gencrous co-operation on all sides, On motion of Logan a committee con- sisting of Bayard and Logan was appoin- ted by the chair to wait upon the Presi- dent and announce to him the election of Davis, of Illinois, as President pro tem. The resolution offered yesterday by Kellogg, calling for papers in the case of Vincenzo Rebello, was adopted after be- ing amended go as to be addressed to the President instead of the Secretary of State. Vorhees stated that he had received a communication from a lady which had induced him to offer the following ; Resolved, That the joint committee on library be instracted to inquire into the expediency of causing a medal to be made in gold commemorative of the tragic and most lamentable death of James A, Gar- field, late President of the United States. The resolution was referred to the com- mittee on library, together with the let- ter alluded to, which makes the sugges- tiov that a gold medal be struck and pre- sented to Harry Garfield, the late Presi- dents eldest son, and that a similar bronze medal be presented to the President's cabinet, members of the Senate and House of Representatives, and the surgeons who attended President Garfield. Sherman iv this convection said that his colleague and he had deemed it ad- visable not to make any formal announce- meut of #resident Garfiela’s death at this session, but to await the aetion of the two houses of Congress at the regular session, when no doubt proper ceremo- nies would be ordered. Adjourned. ——_——_ +f po —__—— Senator Davis and the Radical Coup-De-Main, The manaeuvring of the Republicans was successful. Mr. Bayard was turned out of the Presidency aud Senator David Davis was elected in his place. It has been an established rule of the Senate all through its history, with one exception only, to elect a President of the Senate who should succeed to the Presidency of the United States under certain contin- gencies. He has pever been turned out to please or meet political pecessities, The Republicans stand at nothing. Neith- er precedent nor law is regarded when party behests and party exigencies re- quire it to be disregarded or ignored al- together. The Star is not surprised. Nothing that the Republicans can ever do will surprise us. The history of that party for twenty years warrants the state- ment that even the Constitution itself bas not been a barrier to. their usurpations and reckless disregard of law, The Stalwart organs that have been swift to denounce the Democractic Sena- tors for obeying precedent and usuage, will be equally swift to sustain and ap- plaud the action of their party in kicking aside precedent and usage in their revo- lutionary proceedings. So their party gains a temporary advantage they care veither for consistency nor right, But what about Senator David Davis, the Independent? Hebas been voting with the Republicans generally thus far. What good has he discovered in that party so suddenly that he should become itsally? Hashe gone over bagand baggage? We hope not, It he had done his duty he might have prevented the displacement of Senacor Bayard. Suppose he had re- fused tu serve as the tool of Republicans ism «aud had voted for Bayard, could they ‘have elected anyone else? We think not. Battne temptatian was tou great. The lust of office and honor was too great a strain, and the Independent Senator caught at the baitand was there by hoisted, hung to the Radical fishhook, into the place that belongs rightfully to Senator Bayard. This is not the firat high place that has been snatched from the Democrats, Senator Davis will doubtless make a good presiding officer. His ability is conceded. He hag borne always a high character for integrity. He will not bea partisan officer, we apprehend. Jf he should sueceed to the Presidency of the United States, if Gen. Arthar should die, he would make a good Administration, we may pot doabt.. His recent course shows he would be mostly a Republican in his official acts, but he is by nature conservative in bis views. He is very ambitious clearly. Possibly the Presi- dential bee has begun to bnz again in his bonnet.—Wilmington Star.

The bosses*whu have schemes of thiis kind'on band have learned the importance of getting them well along before the people shall have waked up to their designs. It is in this way that.they are so often able to defeat the known wishes uf a ma- jority of the people. It was in this way that the bosses of Pennsylvania, New York and Illinois were elected to override the actual sentiment of the Republican masses last year and elect strong Grant delegations to the National Convention. tt is in this way that the work for 1884 will be accomplished. Boss Creswell,in Mary- land, has merely found it necessary to take hold firmly.in order to catch up with Boss Cameron, who has his State in the third-term line right along.—Philadelphia Times. see Ir is worth remembering that nobody en joys the nicest surfoundings if in bad health.

Oc13-Nov13. 2 Big ERTL te acre Di A TN EE ES ALLCOCK’S POROUS PLASTER A Curative Host in Itself. Thirty year’s experience has firmly rooted Alleock’s Porous Pigster in public estimation. Their wonderful adaptability to the various symtoms of disease is a ruarvel to medical men ofall schools. For nervous persons and luna- tics, one or more applied to the spine produc- ed sleep when opiates, even hydrate of chloral, had been of Httle servire.. Now, when one can- not sleep, its is the common practice to apply a Plaster tu the back. You scarcely touch the pillow before you are sound asleep. : Allcocks Porous Plasters have the curative effect of the Spanish fly blisters, yet make no sore, and never atfect the kidneys; are conveni- eut for all ages and conditions, usually only producing a “blush” on theskin, and more cer- tainly curative than Jiniments or blisters, and without prostration or pain of the Jatter. This is true even in Croup, Quiusy, Pleurisy, Lung and Phroat A ffections, and the atility of this sanitary invention has been warmly wel- comed. They are largely sold inevery part of the world, and it is believed that not less than tive bundred thousand pergons are well, and attending to the duties of lite, free trom pain, whohave wan Allcock’s Porous Plaster some- whereabout them, and who, but for the said plaster, would be prostrate upon a bed of ago- ny. Besides, a peculiar piny, pleasant odor, halo, or atmosphere exhales from them by the warmth of the body, imperceptible to the eve, but which envelops the person in a cloud of thin vapor, through which contagion cannot penetrate. In jfact, Allcock’s Plasters supply an atmosphere likethat from balsam or pine woods, and no doubt attract ozone, When contagious or infect- clus diseases are about, they should be worn on the hest cr back as preveitives. THE ALLCGCK’S POROUS PLASTER oothes pain, reanimates torpid limbs, seems, in many cases, to revive the powers of life. The great demand proves them to be used aa ia universal remedy. ‘Chey are convenient of ap- | plication, and sate for all, being incapable of producing any injurious effects. Dr. Valentine Mott, Dr. Johnson, of Hart- ford, and Dr. Myers, of Savannah, have spoken of them in the highest terms. The great Mott |said: “They were all that could be hoped for ina plaster—simple, cleanly and adhesive; perfect as artificial supporters of the muscles; jand for pains, because of their counter-irritant | qualities, usually at once giving ease.” Local ) Weakness of the back, breast and side, always | benefited, thus curing lumbago in a few hours, ; sometimes In a few minutes. In serious heart and chest affections their use causes an absorption or evaporation of wa- ter, by which dropsy of the heart and hydro- thorax have undoubtedly been cured. ‘hey appear to have a peculiar effect upon the nervous, allaying irritability while supply- | ing warmth. They seem to accmulate elec- itricity, and aid the circulation of the blood | | through the part where applied, by which | healthy actions are induced. { | The Porous Phasters are flexible, and found of great help to those who have weak backs or pains in the side. Especially are they val- usable to those who have neglected colds, They are often preventiyes of consumption; nay, | they are believed to have loosened the grasp of this terrible affliction, and had been mainly instrumental in effecting a cure. In variable ilimates they should be worn on the breast, or cetween the shoulders, or over the kidneys, by bhose who are subject to take cold easily. This simple plan will soon produce constitutional vigor that will enable one to resist extraordi- nary-ehanges of temperature. Experience hes proved the Porous Plaster to be a blessing to the consumptively iticlined, invariably produc- ing the most remarkable abatement of the worst symptoms.

The second growth of cot- ton has proved delusive; the general condition is better than it was two weeks ago. MISSISSIPPI. The prospects of the cotton crop have materially improved during the last two weeks. The weatheris fine, and picking is progressing. - Eighty per cent. of the crop is already picked; there will be about three-fourths of a crop raised, TEXAS. There have been frequent rains but picking has progressed aud § of the crop Is picked; only a half crop will be raised, TENNESSEE. The weather has been rainy, interfer- ing with picking, which, however, will be all through with by November I. ee ppc A Child Cruelly Beaten. A little white girl, @ years old, came Saturday afternoon to the clerk of the Superior Covrt and said she had been crue!ly beaten by a woman to whom she had been bound ont some weeks before. Upon each cheek she showed a@ long black bruise, and her eyes were blood-shot. She innocently pulled down her stockings and every inch of her legs were covered by the same black bruises as _ those upon her cheeks. The sime raw hide had made them all, and the child said her body would show others like them. But lest there might be still some doubt as to whether it was the work of a savage she pointed to her ear in which were the deep imprints of teeth. She held up her hand and showed ihe marks of the same fangs. The child said that a dish had been broken and thit her mistress had accused her. She had told her that a cat had thrown the dish down and broken it; but the woman would not believe her. She became furious, and after vainly trying to get her husband to tie her (tho child) so that she might be beaten to better ad- vantage, had fallen on her fiercely with a raw hide and becoing maddened as she plied the heavy rod, had, in thefextremi- ty of her rage bitten her victim with the fury of a mad dog. The case was tried before a justice of the peace yesterday, and the woinan was fined $6, after a substantial establish- ment of the facts as related by the child. The clerk of the court removed the girl from the custody of her mistress. Names are withheld at the request of the justice who.says that he kuows the woman to be quite respectable, aside from ' the cousideration of her somewhat violent | temper.—Charlotte Observer. ; ccc | The Color and Lustre of Youth are restor- cd to faded or gray hair by the use of Par- ker’s Hair Balsam, a harmless dressing high ly esteemed for its per.ume and purity. Oclo-Novl3 The second | was called to order by Governor Colquitt. After prayer by Bishop Elliott, of Texas, the buildings and grounds were present- ed to the Exposition Association by Di- rector General Kimball. In responding Governor Colquitt highly complimented the executive committee and expressed the belief that the energy bestuwed in the development of the enterprise thus far had never been exceeded. All the space in theeveral large buildings has been faken, but a fortnight must elapse before all the exhibits can be in place and ino presentable condition. After the ma- chinery was started Senator Vance, of North Carolina, delivered, an address of welcome on behalf of the Sonthern peo- ple. Senator Voorhees, of Indiana, fol- lowed with au oration in which he took strong grounds in favor of the develop- | ment of Southern industry through the’ fostering influence of a protective tariff. “Free trade,” said he “is a seductive sound that can mean nothing except where it is purely reciprocal, aud exists between nations of equal strength. It is the duty of the government to protect its own industries before it practices benevo- lence.” ‘ This is the first world’s fair ever held in the South, and while it properly takes its name from the leading Southern pro- dact its scope includes all the material interests of the Southern States. The two hundred and twenty-two classes of exhibits are distributed in forty-one groups arranged in six departments, the first four of which are for competitive ex- hibition and awards, the other two for These departments are: machinery, implements, II. Natural products, es- exhibition only. I. Productive processes, etc. pecially textile products. UT. Mannfue- tnring u.achinery, chiefly textile, ete. IV. Manufactures. V. Miscellaneous natural products. VI. Non-textile ma- chinery and manufactures, art products, ete. The site of the fair is Oglethorpe Park, which covers fifty acres, just outside the city. The buildings cover more than twenty acres, the number of exhibits hav- ing vastly exceeded anything at first con: templated. The exhibits pertaining to cotton, its cultivation, handling, and manufacture, are beyond comparison su- perior to anything ever seen before. The wealth of general exhibits is not less a surprise to all. Particularly rich is the show of minerals, woods, and other natu- ral products of the South. The Execu- tive Committee announce the following special weekly exhibitions: Fruits and flowers, commencing Octo- ber 25; cattle and mules, commencing November 1; sheep and swine, commeuc- ing November 8; bench show of dog:, commenciog November 15; poultry, etce., commencing November 22; dairy pro- ducts, commencing November 29. October 27 is set down for “Governors Day,” it being expected that the State Governors in attendance at the Yorktown Centennial Celebration will that day vis- it the Exposition accompanied by their several statts.— Scientific American. a Peck’s Advice to Daughters. “Come here, Sis, and sit down beside me, and let me give you a little talking I want to talk to you about your wother. It may be you have noticed a careworn look upon her face lately. Of course it has not been vrought there by any fault of yours, still it is your duty to chase it away. 1 don’t mean for you to run at it and shake your skirts and hol- low shoo as you would a hen, nor do I expect you to get on the other side of the fence and throw old oyster cans and pieces of barrel staves at it. But I want you to get up to-morrow morning and get breakfast and when your mother comes down and expresses her surprise, go right up to her and kiss her in the to. mouth. You can’t imagine how it will brighten up her dear old face. Her face has far more wrivkles in it than yours, yet if you were sick that face would ap- pear far more beautiful than that of an augel, as it hovers over you, watching every opportunity to minister to your comfort, and every one of those wrin- kles would seem to be bright wave- lets of sunshine chasing each other over the dear old face. Those burdens if not lifted from her shoulders, will break her down. There, there don't cry ; she bas not left you yet. She is down the kitchen stringing beans for dinner, and if you feel so badly you might go down into the kitchen and finish them and let her change her dress and rest an hour before dinner. And after dinner take down her hair and do it up for her. You need not wind it over your finger and fuss to make spitcurls as she used to do with yours, but give it a good brushing and wind up gently and tenderiy as if you enjoyed doing it for her. The young man down in the parlor can wait until you have performed these duties. If he expresses any impatience, you may ex- plaiu to him that you feel under more obligations to your mother than you do in to hin. The Fall of David Davis. Washington PoztyDem. We have always desiged to enter- tain a high opirion of Fudge David Davis, his motives and kis procedure, even when we have beén compelled to doubt the wisdom of fhe one or ihe potency of the orther. But we must confess that the cou parsued by that gentleman yesterday, is so thoroughly at variance With his fre- quent solemn protestatiohs, that it can only be attributed to an @lmost insane jambition to crouch beneath the shad- ow of the Presidency, or to induce- ments which while they will occur to _very nvany thoroughly Ampartial ob- servers, we will not without larger provocation put into enduring print. Although frequently predicted, we have never been willing to believe that Judge Davis would permit him- self to be elevated—if elevatiod it can be called—to any position by the meanes lately employed. Baltimore Gazette, Dem. Yhe act of the Republicans in de- posing Mr. Bayard and electing to the Presidency of the Senate Judge Davis, of Illinois, will brand with in- famy the corrapt leaders of the Re- publican party. It is another nail in the presidential coffin in 1884, driven deeply and firmly by the men who ‘stole the Presidency, and) who un- blushingly bartered political patron- age in exchange for the vote of the | Virginia traitor. Whatever respect honest men may have had for Judge Davis’ integrity has been swept away _ bow that he bas permitted himself to be used asa pliant tool in the hands of Republicans and descended to the low i level of Mahone. He knew that with- out his vote Mr. Bayard could not have been unseated, and as there was every reason to believe that Judge | Davis would not lend his vote to elect. Mr. Antheny or any other Republi- ean, they with characteristic cunning shamelessly offer him the “prize in the lottery of assassination,” as Mr. Edmunds terms it; and he, forgetful of his honor and manhood, accepts, and, like Mahone, exchanges fis in- dependence for the comparatively paritry office, Philadelphia Times, Ind. The Democrats forgot that the Re- publicans are politicians like them- selves; that they have already bowed down into the slime and mire of Re- pudiation to capture the political free- booter Mahone; that David Davis is only mortal, with a great deal of hu- man nature in his composition ; that his one dream is of the Presidency, and that he is the devoted friend of the new Stalwart Presideut; and for- getting these things, the Democrats marched into the Republican camp for wool and came back not only mi- nus booty, but shorn of all they pos- sessed, Fe cr TT 1 An Address by the Pope--Deplor- ing His Fate. Rome, Oct. 17.—The Pope in his ad- dress tothe Italian Pilerims at St. Pe- ters yesterday stated that the deplorable state of affairs placed him the altesnative of enduring coutinual captivi- ty, made harder daily, or of going into exile. He therefore asked the Catholics to watch and pray for the liberty and in- dependence of the Pope. Te concluded by saying that he was no longer secure in his palace; that he was outraged in a thousand ways, The gravity and earn- estness of the Pope made a profound im- pression. He closed his address with arms raised to heaven as though implor- ing help. Lonpon, Oct. 17.—A dispatch from Rome to the Times says it is impossible to describe the enthusiastic cheer after the Pope gave his benediction on the above occasion. The Pope looked thin worn and anxious. A gang of roughis pelted the Pilgrims leaving the church of St. Vitale, shouting, “Down with the vatican.” before THE First Etrectric Raibway IN GreaT Britain.—Ground was_ broken the last of September at Portrush, Irelaud, for an electric railway to the Giant’s Causeway. Dr. Siemens is said to be a large contributor to the pew enterprise. It is estimated that the expenses for haul- age on a tramway such as this with horses would be twenty-three cents per mile, and by steam about fifteen cents, while it is supposed that the working expenses by an electrical motor will not reach two cents per mile. ee ee Human SKELETON DisocoVERED,—Says the Asheville Citizen: Our correspondent at Webster writes us that that usually quiet town is all excitement over the dis- covery of a human skeleton. Our cor- respondent says: ‘‘As some railroad hands were turning the road on the farin of Mr. W. A. Dills, three miles below Webster, they exhumed a complete skel- eton with a bullet hole in the forehead. It nas apparently been in the ground sev- eral years. Curiosity is on tiptoe to know who once owned these bones. Who is an anybody tell ?” muissing? MISCELLANEOUS. The census returns show that. the Southern cotton mills make finer goods on the average than those of New England, earning eleven cents a yard for the goods turned out by them, whereas the New England mills get only eight and a half cents, The Commissioner of Agriculture of Virginia makes the sensible suggestion that every person in that State over ten years of age should celebrate the Yorktown Centennial this year by plaut- ing a tree (walnut is reccommended) somewhere—in the yard, field, roadside, or forest. The idea is 4 good one, 80 good that its application should —not be limited to this year nor to the State of Virginia. Sensational journalism is something to which we do not aspire, and it is with much regret that we ever publish anything relating to crime, especially in our own midst, We always sift reports until we feel satisfied of their truth, and even then we are sometimes betrayed into error. We are glad to state, in this connection, that Mr. Sherrill Kincaid, whom we recently re- ported as murdered by his wife in Burke, is not dead. The report was generally cur- rent here for a week, as we published it. Indeed, his neighbors and friends went to his funeral on Sunday following his wound- ing, and found him, although much bruis- ed up, quite a lively corpse. There are hopes of his recovery.— Lenoir Topic, The Raleigh Recorder says: The artesian well at Durham is now about 1,600 feet deep. The drill has passed through ma- ny kind of rock. Ata depth of about 30 feet they came upon rock in which was imbedded round stones about the size of marbles and as hard as flint. Many/peo- ple are surprised to learn that the drill does not turn as an ordinary drill does; but works up and down with a tremen- dous weight upon it. The principle is the same as that employed by a wood pecker in drilling a hole inalog. We learned from Mr. Smith, the operator, that the question is being considered as to the plausibility of digging one at Ral- eigh for the post office and the city. He says that it can be dove for about $8,000, and will supply the whole city with good water. We found, the ether day, in walking thro’ the woods on Mulberry, great quantities of black 10cks scattered about, almost as heavy as iron, and rich with the iron ore which they contained. Not only is iron abundant in that section of the county, but nearly every mineral and precious me- tal in the catalogue may be found all over this and the adjoining counties, and little or no attention is paid to the fact. We suggest that a local mincralogical society be formed in Lenoir to collect specimens of every kind of valuable ore lying around loose in our midst. In the meantime, until such a society is formed, bring in your specimens to us and we will Jabel them, keep them safely and occasionally publish a list of what we bave on hand. When the society is formed, we will turn over our stock to them. We are in earnest.— Lenoir Topic. _——— OE OSD OO Fighting Fire. Detroit Free Press. Learning that at No. 33 Rowiand street a young woman could be found who had passed through the perils of the terrible forest fires en the Huron peninsula, a réporter for the Free Press sought her out. Miss Kittie Lews is a domestic at the above men- tioned place. In her personal appear- auce there is nothing to indicate the energy, courage and heroism she has displayed when those qualities were most need. There is nosuggestion of strong-mindedness in her appearance, The set, determined features and dauntless eye are not there. She is merely a womanly woman ; above the average height, well formed, with light brown hair and eyes; but beneath that calm exterior lies an indomitable will and heroic devotion to duty. In.Dwight township, Huron county, in a small log house, lived, and thanks to Miss Lewis still live, her aunt, Mrs. Christopher Armstead, Mr. Armstead, his mother, new 102 years of age, and fuur small children. He is now a cripple, having been a snfferer fora long time. They were very poor, even before the fire, but Mrs. Armstead, assisted by her two little boys, cultivated their small farm as best che could, and managed to provide the family with food. Miss Lewis has assisted them with shoes and clothing. A short time previous to the fires she went to Dwight to visit her rela- tives, and was there through the ter- rible ordeal. Her narration of her personal experience is thrilling in the extreme. She statesa fact that has been widely denied ; that the farmers light- ed the fires that left many of them Lomeless and penniless. ‘There had been no rain fora long time, and everything was as dry as tinder. All around them the setters had been for days burning brush upon their newly cleared land. Her uncle had remark- ed that it was contrary to law to build forest fires at such a time, but appre- hended no danger wotlt- bender | 4th inst. On that day she tsked- to drive her out to Mr. neighbor. He replied that the Wins- lows, near neighbors, were burnin large tracts of underbrush, and he was afraid to leave home. _On Monday morning, the 5th, the air was thick with smoke that was rising in black clouds from the forest Just beyoud her ancle’s clearing. She asked him if there was any danger, to which he replied: “That, ley” pointing to his wheat field that sk ed the woods, “will burn like pine sticks.” Soen theflames could be seen, | before noon th 3 werte.on fire,’and the two nt 6 fhe fields and commenced tearing them down in a fruitless endeavor to stay the progress of the flames, By noon they were back at the house battling for their lives. But for the ruddy glow of the conflagration it was as dark as midnight. Balls of fire, large pieces of bark, and even glowing boughs of hemlock brush, fell all around them; and for hours Miis Lewisdashed through the thick smoke extinguishing these brands with pails of water, stamping them out with her feet, until her shoes were burned away, and her hose partially consum- ed and her feet blistered. ‘To protect her person she drenched her clothing at short intervals, and protected her head by tying a wet skirt over it. The smoke was blinding to the eyes, pain- ful to the Iungs, and at times so dense that they were obliged to breathe through wet towels. During the afternoon and Monday night those two women succeeded in extinguishing every fire that kindled near them. No stop, no rest; notime to partake of food, even, and every moment saw the ene'rcling of flame drawing closer to its victims. Tues- day morning, despite their most des- perate exertions, the hay stacks, barns and other outbuildings were licked up. Everything was gone but the log house, the walls of that were so hot as to burn the hand. The current bush- es and other shrubbery in the garden and around the house burst into flames, and the intrepid women tore them from the ground with their blis- tered hands and trampled out the fire. They brought water from the wells and dashed it upon the walls ef the smoking house. They soaked blankets and spread them over the roof. When the hayricks caught fire Mr. Armstead abando..elhope. Notsothecetermined women. They redoubled their exer- tions, working with frantic energy as the day advanced. Their terrible struggles, Jack of food and rest began to tell upon their strength. The water in the well began {to come up muddy. Should that fail there would be no hope. And all the time the cordon of flame was creeping nearer, It scorched their faces and caused steam to arise from their drenched garments. To struggle longer was of no avail. Death seemed inevitable. To the south of the house there was asinall plat of grcen corn. Its comparative freshness looked inviting to their inflamed and_half-blinded eyeballs, and thither the entire fami- ly, grandmother, children, all went, as they believed, to die. ‘They threw themselves upon their knees aud prayed in anguish; prayed that God would avert the terrible fute that was impending. And still the devouring circle drew nearer. Then there came a reaction, and Miss Lewis arose from her knees with a heroic resolve to die, if die she «ust, battling with the deetroyer. She could not bear ey thought of her body being found where people would say that she cowered in fear in the corn. She would much rather they would say that she died fighting the fiend to the bitter end, and she hoped there would be something in the position of her body to mutely tell her story. She roused her aunt, infused her with some of her own grim determination, and again they rushed to repel the fue. . Miss Lewis observed that the fire would burrow beneath the turf for several feet, and then burst forth at unexpected points. To guard against the insidious approaches, they dug a trench around the house, with hoes, and poured in water, and theo, through that terrible Thursday night, they threw water upon the house, Mrs. Armstead bringing it from thie well, while Miss Lewis, with a basin, dashed it upon the roof. Weduesday morning still found them working with unflagging energy, though their exhausted frames were weak and tot- tering, aad their eyes were so inflamed that they could but dimly see each other. At 10 o’clock the wind shifted and a light rain fell. ‘heir terrible vigil was over. —— THe Longest Nicnut He Ever Passep.—Dick Frank had quite an experience one night during his recent hunt.

White Pine (Cal.) News, -_ Sb Current Comment. Wilmington Star. There is one view to be taken of the sup ing of. Mr. Ba Senator Davis. It relieves eden “ great deal of responsibility: They can go before the céuntey in 1884 without being handicapped with the failure of political measures, and with the great steal of 1876 unaveng- ed, and the corruptions of the depart- ments unpurged and indeed not thor- oughly exposed. It can go before the country upon a fight for a tariff for revenue for economy in the Gov- ernment, for equal rights to all, for the maintainance of the Constitution and the Union so much imperilled by the centralizing tendencies and the wide-spread corruptions of the Re- publican party. The New York News, Democrat, takes this view : Mr. Bayard can make himself as useful to his party in his seat as Sens i ator as he could in the ition -of presiding officer ; and Mr, vis, who is undoubtedly sincere in his political independence, can be depended upon to preside with dignity, ability. and impartiality, “The Democratic Senators were in the rignt in electing one of their num- ber when they bad the power to do 80; but they are probably just as well satisfied with the situation as it is,” Washington Post, Dem. President pro tempore Davis has un- doubtedly become aware by this time of the duties which he owes to the party which gave him the right to call the Senate to order and preside over its sessions. ‘The resolution of Mr. Edmunds, relating to the contin- uation of the committees as they were organized last session, also provided that the President pro tempore should fill such vacancies as existed. Mr. Davis did fill these vacancies on yes- terday, and instead of exercising the the slightest prerogative in the prem- ises he merely read a list prepared for him by a Republican caucus, which assigned none but Republicaus to the places. Not only were the new Republican Senators provided for, but Mr. Teller was transferred from one committee to another, a Republican was put in his place, and Hawley ob- tained an additional committee ap- pointment. Had all these vacancies been filled by Democrats, that party then would have been in a majority on only about two-fifths cf the com- mittees, though numbering half the Senate. So far Mr. Davis’s independ- ence manifests itself in obeying edicts of Republican caucuses. There is not an honcst man in all this land who would nut rather be a thousand times Thomas F. Bayard, sans peur, sans reproache, than David Davis, besmirched in his good name by his sell-out. Said the revolution- ary Republicans: “Let us have a man about us that is fat.” We confess that Davis disappoints us. We knew he was very ambitious, for it was his ambition that lost Tilden his seat. If he had remained on the Supreme Bench Tilden would not have been cheated by the Radicals out of the Presidency. But, alas, his ambition was teo great for his virtue. “For such thiags, in a false, disloyal knave, Are tricks of custom ; but, in man that's just, They are close dcnotements working from the heart, That passion cannot rule.” Ah, Ambition, Ambition, what a master art thou, and what stings thou carriest! How many have been ruin- ed while kneeling at thy footstool !— Wilmington Star. 0 @e A North Carolina Negro at the Ecumenical Conference. [Col.

Every article of expense is charged up in some cases only a few cents, but in others a few dollars, more than actual cost. One hundred and thirty-two dollars are charged for candles, but it is said that that sum was paid for sugar and lemons for lemonade, fur the secretary, assistant secretary and chief clerk. Thus the peo- ple are robbed by those who have sworn they will be fathful public servants; and public expenses continue to rise, for there is no bouuds to the cnpidity of dishonest men, But the inregularicies are not all against the government.

The Return from York—Important Official Changes—The Speakership of the House —The Favorite in Washington—4 Derth of Office Seekers, : From Our Regular Corresponfent. WasHyncTox, Oct. 22, 1881. The President, Senate, Cabinet, foreign guests, army and paval officers, have been off on a private pleasure excursion to Yorktown the greater part of the week. They took their accommodations with them, liyed on the steamers and U. S. War vessels that took them down, and have, consequently, returned compos cor- poris. ‘Fhe military companies, and hosts of non-official excursionists, who left Washington for Yorktown bat did not take their hotels with them, and neglected to take sufficient money to buy a hotel have also returned weary, bedraggled, sick ang disgusted. I think it possible that you will know with certainty the composition of the new Cabinet before this reaches you, 80 I will not fill my letter with the many clev- er guesses that are made on this interest- ing subject. Bat one thing is certain, the many slates that have been made are nothing more than guesses, and while the sequel may show that some of the guesses were prophetic, it cannot prove that the President did not keep his own counsel. Nor has any progress been made in dis- covering what President Arthur's policy is tobe. He has practiced a reticence which is, to say the least, indicative of prudence, no inconsequential executive attribute. So far he has made no abrupt departure from the policy of his prede— cessor. All the nominatious prepared by President Garfield previous to his death have been sent in and as far as can be judged, his own appoiutments are of good men. It is now expected that the pew Cabinet nominations will be confirmed, aud that the extra session of the Senate will have adjourned by the 27th instant. After an interim of ope wonth, the regular session will assemble. Various canditures for the speakership are canvassed in politi- cal circles here, prominent amovg whom are Ex-Secretary Robeson, Ex-Minister to Austria Kasson, Mr. Dunuell of Mine- sota, Mr. Kiefer of Olio, and Mr. Hiscock of New York. Mr. Robeson is the favor- ite in this city, from the fact that he has long lived here, has a large house, is very wealthy and gives large though select entertainments. It has been remarked that there are fewer office scckers iu Washiugton than is usval. Doubtless the fact that the Presidcut is living in a private jiouse, aud is more difficult of access than if be were in the White House has something to do with keeping this classaway. They, however, will be herve in forece befure the first Monday in December. The prizes of the patronage of the two houses of Congress, to say nothing of anew Cabi- net, will be an irresistable attracton to this rapacious crowd. No deubt there will be some very im- portant official changes, and cousequent— ly a pumber of inivor importance. When a high official like Asst. Postmaster Geu- eral Tyner goes down, many parasitical little crafts are swallowed in the vortex. Many who hold office now must make way for the friends of the vew Cabinet officers. Moreover, the Congress that will assemble on the first Monday of De- cember will be more largely composed of hewmen than avy that has assembled for years, This means that many old members and Senators have lost their influence iu Washington. The technical meaning, ju Washington, of “influence” is power to appoint friends or clients, male or female, to clerksbipa, It is saida new head will be placed over the public printing office.” This immense establish- ment alone employs 1500 persons.

Hancock, too, was much less severe in his deportment than might have been ex- pected. He is evidently very amiable, full of good nature and jollity, aud com- bjncs a wanly couriesy with frankness ina high degree, He is rather morea politician than we had thought, and, like Bayard, has the presidential B still in his bonnet. Mr. Sherman appeared less grim and sardonic than we had pictured him. Blaine is a- magnifieent specimen of a wan with a lordly carriage, and he always inapired ths erowd with enthusi- asm. Indeed, tho immeuss erowd of people wherever they congregated, secm- ed to be Hancock and Blaine men through- out. » These alone seemed particular fayorites, and tliéy seve cheered lustily on all occassions, The Presidgnt bad curtailed his whiskers which boven given sueh prominence in the cartoons atd pictures of him. He bas a more pleasing appearance than when he wore them long. He looks quite young, and did not appear to feel himself the President quite yet, He is possibly a man of culture, bus his face and featnres do not indicate either study, thought or considerable intellectual capacity. We hazard but little, however, in saying that he has will and determination. He has a fine person,and makes an agreeable impression. His short speech of welcome, of a dozen sentences, he had attempted to commit to memory, but had imperfectly succeeded. When speaking he would get the wrong sentence first and would stop, go back to the ove he had omitted and then proceed in good order—Just asa school boy often does. Doubtless he was unused to public speaking, and the nov- elty of the situation, surrounded by ten thousand people, ou sucha grand occa- sion, embarrassed him, The happiest man we saw was the Freneh Minister Outrey. The French guests had becn displeased at being transported on the same vessel with the Germana, and they had stopped at Old Point and taken ene of their own steamers jn consequence. They made much clamor at the incident, and Mr. Blaine, failing to appease them could only end the matter by requesting them to put their complaint iu writing to be made the subject of diplo- matic correspondence. That stopped the unpleasautness. When the addresses were being delivered the French sat to} the right of the President and Baron | the Icit. At every complinient, and there were Steuben and the Germans on many paid to the French, Outrey would almost go off into eestacy. He was the most delighted mortal our eyes ever rest- ed on, and kept himself bowing all the while, at every mention of lis country- men. He is alittle chanky map, bailt somewhat iike Napoleon Bonaparte, and all covered) with decorations aod ornaments. When he came to reply, in his broken English, the crowd made the welkin ring with their cheers, and he almost expired with happiness.

If we are cor- rect, he became obnoxious in Massachu- setts for his sympathy with the South during the war, He rauks with Choate, Webster and such great men of the past who were his associates. James Barron Hope, of Nor:olk, de: livered the ode, and did it admirably, having committed it thoroughly to mewo- ry, notwithstanding its great length. All were pleaséd with it.

Our troops compared favorably with their brethren in arms from other States, and the completeness of their ar- rangement, we learn, drew commenda- tions upon the efficiency of Adjutant General Johnstouve Jones. The State band was second to but few on the ground, and the North Carolina boys were a credit to the State and made us feel still prouder of North Carolina.

Ov {the whole we considerthe celebration a fair success. Nearly everybody we saw were moderately pleased, aud those who wers disappointed peihaps owe their dis- appointment to themselves. ati We met a great many -pleasant people from the North as well as from the South. We heard no word that grated on our ears. Indeed, two of the pleasantest men we were thrown with were Northern minis- ters. One of them was Bishop Harris, who opened the exercises of the 19th with prayer, and who is a very intelligent and learned man, full of avoirdupois gnd good humor, and we surmise, traly devout and conscientious. Among others present was Mrs. Stonewall Jacksog and Miss Julia Jackson, who received many ex- pressions of regard. Said Dr. Stone, of Rhode Island, ‘Our people think a great deal of Stonewall Jacksou.” Outrey, the French minister, said to Mrs. Jackson in broken English, laying his hand on bis heart as he spoke, “Ah, Madame, I wish I could speak English to tell how grateful the French people are to Stonewall Jackson. Gen. Hancock took her hand between his, and with courtliness spoke touching- ly of Gen. Jackson, and seated her by his side during the entertainment at the re- ception. Others addressed her touching- ly relative to her great husband, and tears came to some eyes while paying her respectful homage, ~<a —— RAILROAD. We learn that the party of Engineers who have been engaged for sometime surveying the Statesville and Jefferson Railroad, received orders on Monday last to pull up stakes and report at States- ville to Dr. Eames, They had reached the vicinity of our town and have found a possible route across the Brushy Moun- tain at Kilby’s Gap; though, we’ learn, that the grading would be quite heavy through the mountains: Many of our people are afraid that this is the last of the Statesville & Jefferson Railroad. Others think it prebable that they are going to change their base and cemmence their dine at Salisbury. If that be the case, We think it a wise step on their part. We have frequently heretofore by editurias and correspondents articles, ef Railroad- ists to tis very important and unocen- pied reute for a railroad, and we lave wondered why Gen, Inboden's Corpse of Engineers have net surveyed this direct tricd to draw the atteution route from Bristol, Tennessee, to Salis- bury by way of Jeffereon, Wilksboro and through the Wunting Creek Gap of Riushy Mountain direct to Satisbury. We learn that a survey was made some years ago up the North Fork of New River and across the Stone Mountain at Cut Laurel Gap and found remarkably practicable, and that the reute to Bristol is a good oue for a mountain country, though some say thata road from Abingdou to that point in the mountains would be much more casily constructed. From the Cut Laurel Gap via Jefferson to Reddis River Gap of the Blue Ridge there would be no inere than the usual obstacles in the way of building a road. Reddis River Gap is the lowest one any where in the course of that mountain through this State, and there are spurs running from near that Gap half way down to the Yadkin river, eighteen miles distaut. Asa proof of the lowness of the Gap, a person may atand here in the Yadkin Valley at Wilksboro and see through the Gap nearly the whole bodies of the Negro and Phenix moun- tains ten miles beyond the ridge. After leaving the upper valley of Reddis River, the country is almost level to the Yadkin river hills uear Wilkesboro. We learn from persons well acquainted with the to- that from Wilkesboro to Salisbury the direct road we have one of the easiest lines to build a railroad over to be found anywhere and the djstance would only be fifty eight or sixty miles. Hunting Creek beads on the north side of the Brashy mountains and runs entircly through the rapge of mountains in a direct line to Salisbury, and eighteen or twenty miles from Wilkes- boro you strike a level ridge, the water- shed between Hunting and Rocky Creeks which extends to the South Yadkin 28 or 30 miles distaut, amd intelligept persons say, that would be the lightest grading they had ever seen for a railroad, the The South Yadkin and the creeks between that and Salisbury, three or four in number, would be to bridge but the grading no where would be heavy. It seems to us, considering the fact that this road would pass right threugh the iron and copper regions of Ashe, would cut the Yadkin Valley at one of the fivest and most productive parts of the State, would run through a part, or the whole, of the rich valley of Hunting Creek, and the further fact that this road would eventually form aun im- portant link in the most direct route from Wilmington and Charleston to the north- west, we say it seems to us, a wonder why some company has not seen its im- portance and geccupjed it before now. Mr. Best might find it cheaper than a law suit for the W. N.C. R.R., and de- cidedly a better extension for his rail- road.— Wilkesboro Index.

There is also’3 rus of his reign that appears to,eon- firm this statement. Sve Hapris’e Papyrus. Swinton, the Narther his-} torien of the war, in. his the World’s History,” revised, 1880, says that the Pharaoh “whose heart was hardened, and who was drowned in the Red Sea,” was Maneptha, the Fourth King the 19th Dynasty. He a : Viepnvory <¢ or account ef their aisecovery appeared ina letter from Alexandria, Egypt to; the London Times. Ina recent nan- ber of the New York Churchman there was an instractive editorial upon the discovery, bat there were two crrors, as we think. It affirmed that one of the mammies was that of the Pharaoh who is snpposed to have pursued the Israclites and was suppose to have been lost in the Red Sea. It was said incidentally, if we remember cor- rectly, that ostris of tl King who perseented the Israclites, Greeks, and) was_ the but was not drowned, as his body was | among the newly discovered mum- nies, and hissarcophagus, long empty, was in England. [n the Riehmond Religious Herald of two wecks ago, we find an article on the “Recent Discoveries in Egypt —The Remains of Sesostris.” It pur- ports to bea translation, from what it does not appear, but we suppose from the French. Ilere it is: “Among the mumuies of the kings of Exypt which have recently been discovered that of Ramses the Great, the famous It isin a per- Sesostris of the Greeks. The body fect state of preservation. is enve!o} muslin of India, on which is embroid- ered with exquisite art the flowers of the lotus. The right hand holds the sceptre. The coffin of sycamore wood is ornamented with carvings in the most beautiful style. “Tt was towards the end of whose victori#s are deseribed in the inscriptions on the obelisk of the Place de la Concorde at Paris, that Moses was born. Also, the mummigs of his father. his grandfather, Ramses the Hirst, have been found; but not those of | his son, Maneptha, nor of his grand- | son, Lei the Second—the Pharaoh under whom the Israelites left Egypt an‘l who perished in the Red Sea.” Ilere we learn) aguin that Ramses the Great (Ramses IL.) was “the . . » ? 1’ oF rh fimo Sesosiris of the Greeks.’ The} stutement is made that Leti IT. was the Pharoch of the Exodus, and that Ramses II. was the Ses- : near ancient Thebes, 15} el in a tissue finer than the| the reign of Ramses the Great, the same Leti the First, and of places the Exodus 1320 before Christ. is doubt certainly as to the Some recent writers place it i there ilate. | earlier. The progress made in Bgyptian ihistory by special students <is,some- ithing wonderful. Since the disaovery lof the famous Rosetta Stone afd the | deciphering of the hieroglyphies by |Champollion the advaace has been ‘astounding simply. It will not do to ignote old books concerning Kzypt. | Dozens of learned and patient sebol- lars are delving constantly amid the ‘rich treasures of that famous Egyp- tain Jand, and new and wonderful discoveries are being made almost every year. We make no apology for discussing the above points for Suan- day readers. Remember that it is stated in the translation from the French that the mummy of Maneptha has not been found. If he was lost in the Red Sea, as we hold and_ believe, it will never be found. We sum up; 1. Sethi {. was the Sesostris of the Greek writers, and not Ramses II. | 2. That the Pharaoh of the Exode, iwho was drowned in the Red Sea, was Manephta or Maneptha, (both spellings ee among scholars) and ‘not Leti LL. (same as Sethi) as stated | often. ——_——— = A Hiteh. | | ‘“T hate to seea hitch ina weddin’,” remarked a farmer from Jamaica way, as he dropped into the Hagle’s count- ing room with a nuptial notice. “It looks bad and it makes talk.” “Anything wrong about this wed- ding?” asked the clerk, us he made change for the old man. ‘Nothing positively wrong, but it didn’t launch like I want to see a thing of that kind, You sce by the notice that Buck Thomas was marry- ing Mary Bliff, and at one time we begun to think they never would git through the ceremony,’ ‘What was the hitch ?’ ‘Why, Buck is a Methodist, and Mary is a ’Piscopalian, and as one wanted one service, and the other an- he was drowned in the Red Sea. Itfother, they patched up some kind of is also stated, and please mark {t,/a scheme to have both. Neither would that the body of Maneptia has not} go to the other church, but each had been found, ‘This is important, as will be seen presently, . Again we tind in one of onr Pres- byterian exchanges a long article on these recent and important discover- ies, that will yet throw much light doubtless upon Bible history, which SVs : “Whethee the Pharaoh of the; Exode is among them is not settled. The Bible does rot distinetiy say that Pharaoh was drowned in’ the Red Sea with his host, and it is possible ) that his body may be one of those dis- | covered, Bit weiucline tothe opinion, from Psalins 106: 11, and 186: 18, that) Pharaoh was drowned with his host, and that a earefal) examination of the papsri will establish the fact.” It says, in another place, of these munimics : “The amount of light which they will throw, when fully understood, on Egyptian history cannot be esti- mited, We have the veritable origi- malaccounts, written three thousand six hundred years ago, of what took place in Kevptatthattine. We havecertain- ly the burial outfit of thirty Egyp- tian kings. We have certainly count- less relics representing the times when Israel was in Egypt, and from then natil the time when David reigned in Judea. We have probably the iden- tical bodiesties of the great kings of the earth, whose souls have been in eternity for from twenty-five hun- dred to thirty-six hundred years. The discovery is, perhaps, the most wonderful that bas ever been made.” Now all this to a Bible student, or to any intalligent mind, is a matter of singular iaterest. We wish now to authorities to sustain the tullowing position : First, the Scesostris of the Greeks was not Ramses IT. as is stated above; aad, second, that Leti IT, (same as Lethi) was nol Pharaoh of the Exodus. As to the first point, we offer the testimony of a work exhibiting the profoundest research and the widest learning. In Vol. 1, page 367, of Dr. Giekie’s “Hoars with the Bible,” it is stated that the learaed Lepsius, the fumious German Ezvyptologist, in his work, Denkmater ang Aygypten und Lthiopn, says that Sethi I. was the Sesostris of the Greeks. Dr. Giekie necept= this statement as correct. Dr. Geikie’s work shows the latest learn- ingou the Beble in convection with Egypt. It was published less than a year since. But here is other evi- dence. In Anderson’s “New Manual of Ancient Civilization,” it is stated that Seti I. (same as Sethi) was “eall- ed) Sesostris by the Greeks.” It is ulways best to be accurate, especially Jn historical matters, . As tothe other point—that Leti Jl. was) vot not the Pharaoh of the proof is abundant. We will content ourselves with the following: Dr. Giekie quotes with approbation (vol. i, p. tue statemeut made in PRe- cords of bie Past, voll Vi, Pp. 56, 33, 47,9), that MANEPHTAH was the Pisursol who persecujed and pursued pive SOME the v=, ito their own minister and the weddin’ come offin the schoo! house. The ’Pis- copal minister married Mary, and the Methodist undertook to marry Buck, and there they was takin’ alternate whacks at the thing, and ucither pay- in? any attention to the other. The Methodist brother fired off a sermon first, and the bride sat down aud went to sleep. The ’Piscopalian said as how we had all dropped in to see that woman jined, but he wouldn’t say who to, and wanted to know if there was any objections. That started up ithe Methodist, who began to ask Buck if he knew what a solemn bus- iness he was peggim’ at, and if he really meant to trade. “All that time the ’Piscopalian was howlin’ around ebout this woman,and Mary was say- in’ she’d do this and that and the other. The Methedist was marryin’ away ou his side and finally they brought up agin a stump.” : “How’s that?” asked the elerk, ‘Well, the ‘Picopalian wouldn’t re- cognize Buck or his minister, and the Methodist wouldn’t have nothin’ to do with Mary or her preacher, and there was no way of gittin’ ’em to- gether. Everything was all ready rexcept askin’ them if they’d take each other, and neither one of ’em would do it. Mary and Buck was standin’ hand in hand and the crowd was get- tin’ hungry.’ ‘How did they get through with it?” ‘They had to compromise. They | wrangled around for atimeand final- ly Buck spoke up of his own accord and said he’d take Mary for his wed- ded wife, and) Mary chipped in and said she’d take Buck for her husband. At thet we all cheered and hollered. But there they plumped on another snag,’ ‘In what respect?’ inquired the clerk. ‘Because there was no one to pro- nounce ’em man and wife. Buck tried to reason Mary into lettin’ the Methodist do that part, and Mary argued with Buck and tried to per- suade him into listening to her preacher, but it was no use. That brought another row, and as it was gettin’ nigh on to dark, we all seen that somethin’ ought to be done, and as we'd been there most all day.’ ‘Well, did they get married? ask- ed the tired clerk. 'Yes; we fixed it up.. The minis- ters was gettin’ pretty mad at each other, but they agreed that they’d each attend to their own flock, so the Methodist said I now pronounce you man, and the ’Piscopalian said I now pronounce you wife, and they let it go at that. Then Buck paid the Methodist, and the ’Piscepalian wan- ted to know where he came in, Buck said he’d hired his man and _ paid him, and, as he was not responsible for his wife’s foolishness before mar- riage, her parson could whistle for his wealth. J guess there’ll be a jiawsuit about it for the ’Piscopalians isay he'll have half of that fi’? dollars iv it takes a leg short off to the arm- pit, I don’t ike to see them hitches’ at weddin’s, and. it ain’t- basiness.” It don’t look right, Witli which reflection the old=man buttoned up his change and drove “Outlides eff home in deep meditation.—Brooklyn Eagle. —_—— wee -- Ir js worth remembering that nobody en joys the nicest surroundings if in bad health There are mscrable people about to-day with one foot‘in the grave, when a bottle of Parker's Ginger Tonie would do them more good than all the doctors and mediciues théy have ever tricd.

They havecompletely superceded mercuryand bleeding, which was found in very generat use in this country fifty years ago. I said thatthe one was poisonous and the other a murderous treatment. the remedial power of nature had not only to cure the disease, - but to eradicate merfurial poisons and supply new streams of blood to exhausted patients. which was toc much for any constitution; that my plan of treatment was lo remove disease by purifying the blood with Brandreth’s Pills, for when the blood was thus made pure, the mecical force of nature came into full pley, and. unless God willed otherwise, the patient was sure to re- cover. Brandreth’s Pills assist nature in all her efforts. It is nature that cures disease and not medicine. T[very othe: conrse of treat- ment only throws great obstacles in the way of be constitution. I am happy to say that bleed- ing, which I said was always improper, has been generally abandoned by the medical pro- feasion, and that the poisonous qualities of mer- cory have been so far recognize that the use of it has been forbidden in the United States Army, by the Surgeon-General. In the calen- dar for 1881, I publish numerous cases of cures by Brandreth’s Pills, some of them so remark- able as to be little short of miraculous: Bun they aretrue, and the witnesses can be seen and consulted. If Brandreth’s Pills were used in every family, each box would be a magazine of health and a perfect medicine chest. OBSERVE, that Brandreth’s Pills, taken on an empty stom- ach, create no nausea, vomiting, or griping. They do good any time, but are most effective and agreeable taken on going to bed, when lit- tle, or better still, no supper has been eaten. Bb. BRANDRETIL. COSTIVENESS AND DISPEPSIA CURED.

A Counterblast—Proclamation to the Leaque by the British Government. Earl Cowper, Lord Lieutenant of Ire- land, iu a special proclamation issued Thursday night, declared the land league , to be an illegal organization, and warved the Trish people that its meetings of all kinds or in auy place will be dispersed by force. The following is the precla- mation : “Whereas an association styling itself the Trish National Land League has ex- isted for some tine past, assuming to in- terfere with the Queen’s subjects in the tree exercise of their lawful rights, and /especially to coutrol the relations between landlords and tenants in Ireland : “Whereas the designs of the associa- tion are being sought to be affected by an organized system of intimidation, by at- tempting to obstruct the service of the processes, the execution of the Quecu’s writs and by seeking to deter the Queen's subjects from fulfilling their contracts /and following their lawful callipgs and occupations: “Whereas the said association has nuw avowed its purpose to be to prevent the | payment of all rent and to effect the sub- law as administered in the ' Queen’s name in Ireland: “Now we hereby warn all persons that the said association, styling itaelf the Irish National Land League, or by what- suver other hame it may be called or known, is an unlawful and criminal asso- ciation, aud that all meetings and assem- blies to carry out or promote its designs or purposes are alike unlawful and crimi- pal, and will be prevented, and, if neces- sary, dispersed by force. “We hereby warn all subject of ber Majesty the Queen who may have become convected with the said association to | disconnect themselves therefrom and ab- stain from giving further countenanee thereto. “And we do hereby make known that all the powers and resources at our com- mand will be employed to protect the Queen's subjects in Ireland in the free exercise of their lawful rights and in the peaceful pursuits of their lawful callings and occupations, to enforce the fulfill- ment of all lawful obligations, and to save the processes of the law and the execu- tion of the Queen’s writs from hindrance or obstruction. “And wedo hereby call on all loyal and well-affected subjects of the Crown | . . | toaid us in upholding and maintaining the authority of the law and the suprema- cy of the Queen iu this her realm of Ire- land, “Dated Dublin Castle, this 20th day of October, 1881. “By his Excellency’s commands. “W.

MISS GASKELL’S RUNAWAY HUSBAND. BY EBEN E. REXFORD. “Have you seen that letter from Miss Guaskell’s runaway husband ?” lasked Mrs, Devere cf Miss Stuyves- “I remember tnat I laid itdown i somewhere, after I brought it down ‘to read to you, but where I don’t ‘US know, and I can’t tind it now. Iam lanxivus to carry it back before she ;comes in. 1 suppose I oughn’t to have read it without her leave, but my curivsity was so excited that I couldn’t help it.” ‘No, I haven’t seen it,’ answered Miss Stuyvesant. ‘Poor fellow! I haven’t 'thouglit abomt anything else since you read'the letter to me! Al my sympathies are on his side. I wonder how it will end? vere, from Miss Gaskell. I am anxivus to see the story in print. It will make something of a sensation, I think.’ ‘I think so, too,’ answered Miss Stuyvesant. ‘Lf wonder what Harry Brand will say when he sees her name in the papers ?” ‘He’il probably be more astonished than we were, when we found out her secret, for we knew her so well that we half expect something of the kind,’ replied Mra. Devere. ‘Oh! I know where that letter is now. I left it in my room, Ll go and pat it back this minute, before she has a chance to discover that we have been gratify- ing our woman’s curiosity.’ Miss Jaylor, who was sewing inan adjoinging room, listened to every word of the above conversation with wide-open ears, and a look in her face which the miner’s may wear when he discovers a promising gold-mine. Here was something delightfully startling. Miss Gaskell was a new- comer in Brantley, and stood very high in the estimation of those who had formed her aequaintance. Mrs, Devere and Miss Stuyvesant were visiting her. Miss ‘Taylor had come there to sew fora week or two, and being ever on the lookout fur anything which would furnish food for gossip and tattle, she had lost no opportunity of listening to the conversation of the ladies. Unatil now, she bad heard nothing which seemed worth while to repeat. But this day was destined to be a red-letter one in ber calendar. Here’ was something as exciting as it had been unexpected. Miss Gaskell’s runaway basband! The words fairly took Miss Yaylor’s breath away when Mrs. Devere uttered them. Iler uraid- en check turned pale with excitement. Could it be that it had been reserved for her to spread the startling news that Miss Caskilt was not what peo- ple supposed her to be? If Miss Payior, spinster, ever gave thanks to anything, it was for this sweet morsel of gossip which Providence Fseemed to have reserved for ber espe- cial benetit. She could:’t sew very: well after that. She longed to share her secret with some congenial spirit. She man- aged to stand it until afternoon. Fin- ding that such a secret, kept in her ancient bosom, was likely to produce a case of spotaneous combustion, she put on her bonnet and shawl, and left word with the cook that she didn’t feel very well, ‘and guessed she’d go over to sister Perinthy’s and stay all bight. Mebbe sister Perinthy could give her somethin’ that’ud help her,’ ‘Why on ’arth! What's the mat- ter?’ was sister Perinthy’s greeting, as Miss Taylor made her appearance. She could tell by her sister’s face that there ‘was something in the wind.’ ‘Perinthy, you can’t imagine!’ ex- claimed Miss Taylor. ‘I never’d a b’leeved it if I hadn’t heerd it with my own ears!’ ‘What is it?? demanded Perinthy, now as inuch excited as Miss Taylor herself. ‘Do unbosom yourself, Al- miry.’ And then sister Almiry proceeded to ‘unbosom herself’ after this fash- ion : ‘You know I allus said, Perinty, from the time I fust sot eyes on that Miss Gaskell, that there was somethin’ about her I did’t like. Wall, my feclin’s was right. Periuthy, she hain’t what she orter be. She’s a sailin’ under false colors. Perinthy, , 39) she’s got a husban’! ‘Now Almiry Taylor!’ exclaimed Perinthy. ‘You don’t mean that ?” ‘Yas, Ido, every word on’t!’ an- swered Almiry, solemnly. ‘He’s left her, and them visitors o’ hern sympa- thize with him. And it’s all comin’ out in the papers, and she’s got a fel- ler now, and he don’t know a sylla- breath by this time. Perinthy was speechless with hor- ror at this revelation of iniquity in high places. ‘You sec, the way I happened to find out this was in this way ;’ and then Miss ‘lavlor explained the man- ner in which she became posseseor of her delightful secret. cuties, as in previous agitations, is \ ! ‘considered hopeless, ‘What air you goin’ to do about it?” ‘I don’t know,’ answered Mrs. De- | ‘You can’t find out anything ; but o’ this!’ Miss Taylor was out of | ‘asked Porinthy -by cand ‘bys: ‘he’s "of the ieved party,’ said Miss jined her name’to the gharch séuce Gaskell, “I am Iso ha: ishe’s come here, and I don’t, feel, fer to explain the myaneys ta the ten jone, as ef I could coun sich | place, I have never been the owner of duin’s. I b’leeeve that the Lord ‘han! a husband. In that respect Miss Tay- chose you as a humble instrewment to ‘bring her iniquity to light, Almiry, and I’m free to say I think it’s your |daty to go right to the Elder with ithe hull story.’ 2 ‘Mebbe, tis,’ said Miss Taylor with ‘a sigh. ‘I most wish he’d chose some- | body else; but I won’t shirk my du- ity, if I kiow it.’ Id like to have somebody explain the meaning of this?’ said Miss Gas- kell one morning, two or three days later, laying a note before Mrs. De- vere and Miss Stuyvesayt. ‘What shave L.beea doing that should eall for such summary treatment? I can’t think of anything.’ The note was from the elder of the church, signed. by the deacens, asking Miss Gaskell to meet them that after- hoon at the parsonage study, to an- swer to some serious charges which had been preferred againet her by a member of the church. ‘Lam unabled to offer any explana- tion,’ answered Miss Stuyvesant. ‘And soam J,’ said Mrs. Devere. ‘I think they vaght to state what the charges are, and where they come from,’ That afternoon Miss Gaskell, ac- companied by her two friends, went up to the parsonage. They were shown into the elder’s study, and there found the two old deacons, Miss Taylor and her sister Perinthy. Miss Taylor had the air of an old Spartan. Her coun- tenance expressed a cunsciousness of importance which gave Miss Gaskell tu understand at once that the trouble had originated with her. She had thrown up her engagement for sew- ing a day or two beture, probably be- cause her keen sense of religious duty a person as Miss Gaskell, ‘I have come here in answer toa note from you, requesting me to an- swer certain chages against myself,’ said Miss Gaskell, coming at the mat- ter with her usual directness. ‘I ask for information regarding the offenses Lam charged with,’ The elder rose and began : ‘It isa painful duty that [ have to perform, and Io could) wish—’ There Miss Gaskell stopped him. me stated as briefly as possible. Don’t waste any words or timeon it. It isn’t worth while.’ Thus confined strickly to business the elder said: ‘You are charged with leading a life of deception, I have been formed that you have a living hus- band, and at the same time are en- couraging the attentions of another man, If this is true, you are setting a moral example before the commu- nity which calls for rebuke. This is the charge against you, ‘A living husband !’ Miss Gaskell’s face was blank with amazement. ‘1 shall be pleased to have you tell me who makes such preprosperous charges against me,’ ‘There is the jerson,’ said the elder, indicating Miss Taylor, Sister Tay- lor, will you state to this lady what you stated to me?’ ‘Sister ‘Paylor’ rose slowly to her feet with a beeoming expression of meekness on her face, cleared her throat, aud began : ‘Brothers and sisters, it’s a painful duty I have to perform, but the Lord seems to have chose me as a humble instrewmest, and I can’t be back- ward in bearin’ the cross, Last Mou- day mornin’ I heerd this lady—point- ing to Mrs. Devere—‘tell this one’ — indicating Miss Stuy vesant—‘that she had Just a letter from Miss Gaskell’s husban’ that had ruu away, and then they went on a talkin’ about him and her, and the young gentleman that’s paying attention to her, and about it’s comin’ out in the papers, and how s’rprised everybody’d be, and other things; and be bein’ in the next room I couldn’t get away, and had to set and listen to itall, I was thunder- struck with amazement. I s’posed Miss Gaskell was a single woman, and I’d no idee how matter and things reely stood till then, Bein’ a mem- ber o’ the church, I felt it my Chris- tian duty to state what I heerd, and I did so. I feel my unworthiness as a poor worm of the dust, and hope I have an interest in your prayers. Miss ‘Taylor sat down with an air that seemed to say, ‘There! lift up your head after listening to that, if ou can! Miss Gaskell’s face was full of in- dignation at first, but the look grad- ually changed to one of intense amuse- meut as the truth dawned upon her. Mrs. D.vere was laughing behiud her handkerchief when Miss Taylor sat down, and Miss Stuyveeant was crying ; Lut the expression of her iace didn’t seem to indigate:, that it was from grief. ALissTaylor looked at them with Softy seorn. Such levity on such a solemn occasion was disgraceful. ‘Tam happy to hear the statement would not allow her to live under the | same roof which covered so deceitful ‘Sask to have the charges against | ine | lor and myself are alike.’ Here Miss Taylor looked daggers at Miss Gas- kell, who smiled ‘back so aggrava- tingly that she wanted to ‘scratch her eyes out,’ a3 she afterwards informed sister Perinthy. ‘E have been at work on-a story, to which I have given the name of “The Runaway Husband.” The letter to which she refers is one which the runaway husband writes to his wife, explaining the dilemma which led to his running away, and it seems that my friend, Mrs. Devere, who had read some previous portions of the story, became so curious to know what explanation he eould of- fer for his conduct, that she and Miss Stuyvesant took advantage of my ab- ,Sence one day and read his letter, which Mrs. Devere mislaid and came Hear forgetting to return before I came home.

Williams, for the purpose of ascertaining what progress had been made in deepening our river and bar chaunel. After steaming down the river we landed at New Inlet aud examined the sea wall, 'and fouud the cap-stones laid before the | great gale of September 9th intact, the - oysters and barnacles having formed a ‘ _cement more impregnable thau any work , of man. | After viewing the New Tulet breakwa- _ter, we steamed out by the Bald Head ‘channel to the sea, our object being to ‘take actual soundings and ascertain the ‘practical depth of water on our bar for vessels. We found from our own sound- ‘ings the minimum deptb of water ov the | bar to be fourteen and a quarter feet, and ‘this taken at the very lowest stage of the tide, the gain being, since 1876, five feet (on the bar and an average of eight feet ‘from the inside to the outside buoy. ‘Here was demonstrated the fact that a ‘loaded vessel averaging from 1,500 to 2,000 tons could safely enter the port of Wilmington and find good anchorage. On otr return we passed throngh the ‘new channel, drawing ten feet of water, | being cut by Mr. Bacon to facilitate the “the passage to and from the bar and Wil- mington. This new channel obviates the ‘necessity of vessels beating round the | Horse Shoe, a sand shoal which runs out | a mile into the river, and is a serious ob- | stacle to sailing vessels bound to our port. Looking at the work that has been ‘done on the limited appropriation, it may safely be affirmed that every dollar has done its work, and been faithfully ac- counted for. A solid stone curb of 180,000 cubic yards has been constructed, 4,800 fect long, costing but $475,000; whilst the great sea wall of Plymouth, England, not one-balf or one-third as wuch exposed to the sea, has cost eight times that amount, and is not to-day finished, and will 1e- quire $2,500,000 to complete it. The swashes which were created by the storm of last September, whilst not more form- idable than those by recent washings, will require some additional work to ef- fectually close them against the inroads of the sea in the future. The Assistant Engineer in charge, Mr. Henry Bacon, has devoted his eutire eu- ergies to this work, and by careful and uniutermitted attention has produced re- sults which, had they been developed in a wore commercially important centre, would have undoabtedly wou for bim not only reputation, but wealth, ‘The cum- mercial community of our city owe Mr. Bacon a debt of gratitude for his devotion to their interests. ————_ ~~ —_—_— Light seems to be breaking on the “Dark Continent” of Afriea.

It is not solely bor chiefly because these heavenly bodies sustain a diferent relation to each other, from any hitherto assumed, for that might with trutt» be said of them almost any year; but it is because the position ilself is so peculiar and noteworthy. All the greaz bodies of our system, and many of the emailer ones, assumed the position of a right line with the Sun, on the date above named, June 19, 1881. It is now weil understood that the Sun is the great centre of Electric action and iufiuence throughout the Solar System, and that this action is greatly intensified when even as any as two or three of the prin- cipal bodies of the system assume the po- sition of aright line with each other and with the Suv. 1t is a well-known fact that when even the Moon assumes that position with reference to tbe Earth and Sun (that is at its chauge or full), we usu- ally have a change of weather. This re- sults from the disturbed Electrical con- dition, induced by the position of the three bodies thus iu conjunetion. May we not then expect to experience an unu- sual and extraordinary year in this re- gard? And this will probably continue for the succeeding tour or five years to come. Certainly the year has been a re- markable one with the elements so far. It will not surprise us if these extraordi- nary phenomena not only continue, but grow in intensity, throughout the months that are to follow. SS eee More Cotton Mitts.—An exchange says that during the past twelve months $1,000,000 has been invested by eastern capitalists in two cotton factories at Au- gusta, Ga.—the Enterprise and the Sibley —with $1,000,000 and $5,000,000 capital, respectively, of which about one-third was taken South. A new mill—the King —is projected, with a capital of $1,000,- 000 ; one-quarter of this amount has been subscribed at Augusta. and the balanee is being raised in the North. At Atlanta a cotton mill is being built by two firms, one of Cincinnattiand one of Atlanta, the two firms taking all the stock. It is al- most impossible to find a city in the South in which there is not a new factory building or organizing, the usual plan being that lucal subscriptious are made for one-third of the capital stock, and the balance is readily raised at the North. Without exception the factories aro pros- perous, and where one is built it isad in- ducement and argument for more.--Nee Orleans Times. -_- -—_~aire Fis AcTHority vs. Facts.—Prof. Baird, of the United State’s Fish Com- mission, promulgates the theory that no fish, or at least no fish of any size, will spawn before the third year after their generation. In the face of this doctrine from this authority Capt. 8S. B. Alexan- der, ef this county, reports that the land- locked salmon which he placed in his fish pond iu their infaney a year ago have spawned this season. Dr. Searr, keeper of Elmwood cemcete- ry, also reports ihat the young carp plac- ed in the cemetery lakes a year ago have also spawned this season. The Observer is requested to suggest to Mr. Olds, of the News cd Observer, to interview the State fish commissioner, Mr. Stephen Worth, on the subject.—Charlotte Observer.

The number of registered poor who have received relief duriag the pres- ent year reaches the number of 354,812, of whom 200,000 receive outdoor relief. The number supported wholly by charity is over 150,000. In 1729 every tenth per- son was aconfirmed pauper. The annua poor rate iv Paris is 114 francs per head, or $125 per family.

And why not treat the Indians like human beings ?—Wash- ington Post, The current rumor that there is a largeamountof money now inthe bank of England to the credit of ex-Con- federate government is accepted by many as the cause, but this rumor has met with adenial. The Weldon News says: “Some time during last summer we saw a private letter written by Mr Benjamin in answer to one ad- dressed to him on this subject. He said there never had been any money in England belonging to the late Con- federacy except a few odds and ends which he get together and turned over to Col. McRae, of Wilmington, who appropriated them to the use of ex-President Davis and his family while Mr. Davis was in prison. He also said if there had been any such money there the English holders of Confederate bonds would have seized it. Moreover Mr. Benjamin said he was surprised that any intelligent person should believe there was any such money in England.— Home-Dem- ocrat. A correspondent of the New York Tribune wrote of North Carolina troops at Yorktown as follows: “North Carolina proves to be second only to Virginia among the Southern States in the number of her troops, but she has too much variety ofuniforns for the best effect.” That was true, especially iu regard to the blankets. The tone of the above is, however, far different from the mean fling which the correspondent of the Phuila- delphia Press made about our boys. He said they wore butternut clothing and had the appearance of being moourhiners.

But all stiff, clayey lands, and most medinm soils, are invariably bene- fitted by being well broken up m nutumn, in order to expose them to the disintegrating and refining power of frost, thaw and rain. “Pre dee:y of vegetable matter, also, within the soil is a matter of the greatest, value mM mellow the ground jn a way very beneficial.

The laws of North Carolina re- quire every executor apd administrar torto ‘lake and subseribe-an bat ov affirmation, before the Judge of Pro- bate, that he will faithfully and hon- estly discharge the duties of his trast,’ (See Battle’s Revisal, chap. 45, sec. 15,) and among these duties that every executor and administra- tor swears to discharge is, that he must ‘notify all persons having claims same to such executor or admigistra- tor at or before a day to be named in such notice,’ (See Battle’s “Revisal, ‘chap. 45, see. 45) and by an act of the |last Legislature this notice must be | published in a newspaper of the coun- ity, if there be any, So that every lexecutor or adrsinistrator who fails to | publish this notice, as required by law, violates his oath. We call atten: tion to this matter in order that ex- hecutors and administraters may know ‘the law and not ignerantly violate i their oaths, Not only do executors and admin- ‘istrators violate their oaths if they | neglect to publish the notice to credi- | turs, as required by law, but they also l render themselves pecuniarily liable.

About a dozen new menibers were enrolled, and the regular routine business was transacted. The re- ports of the Presbyteries were received and referred to committees. The Rev. L. C. Vass read the annual report on Sunday Schools. The report was full and interest- ing, but suggested the importance of special attendance te this subject in the future. The Annual Report on Publication, pre- pared by Rev. F. 1H. Johnston was read. This repert showed progress in contribu- tions by cur church. The Synod then heard the Rev. Dr. Hazen upon the general Sub- ject, its financial affairs, Sunday Schools, etc. His statements were full and satisfac- tory. These proceedings filled up the morn- ing hours. In the afternoon, Rev. C. M. Payne pre- sented the Report on Evangelistic work. This report reveled the fact that 158 of our 228 churches contributed $2,206 to Evangelistic work the last year, or an aver- age of 12 cents per member. Only two Evangelists for the whole of their time, though several others were giving part of their time to missionary work. The report was discussed at length, and afterwards a Paper was offered proposing to raise $3000 to sustain two synodical Evanzelists. In the discussion much difference of opinion was developed. The question was not set- tied at the close of the afternoon sessions. In the evening the church was crowded with an eager congregation to hear the sub- tev. R. Z. John- ston read the Annual Report, showing that over $6,000,00 had been raised inthe Synod during the past year, After reading the report, he introduced the Rev. H. C. Du Bose, of Soochow, China, who addressed the Synod at length upon the idolatrous religions of China. As the speaker develop- ed his theme the hcarers were able to com- prehend something of the magnitude of the work of the miszionary. After the address a collection was taken up for Forcign Mis- sions, amounting to $60, or about, while the congregation sang Heber’s spirited mission- ary Hymn: “From Greenland’s icy Mountains.’ Synod then adjourned. ject of Foreign Missions. d Tuirp Day— Fripay Mornina. The Synod met and proceeded to its work by reading the minutes and receiving re- perts on Synodical Records, ete. After this the subject of Synodical Evangelists was taken up and discussed with great earnest- ness and ability. Prominent among the spe ikers were Rev. P. T. Penick, Rev. J. W. Primrose, Rev. 5. M. Smith, Rev. G. L. Cook, Rev. D. E. Jordan, Rev. J, L. Currie, L. McKinnon, and. others. cussion and amendment of the paper, it was tinally adopted. The paper provides for the selection of two ministers by the Synod, to labor nnder the authority and direction of the Presbyterics. This action is a new departure in the Synod of N.

Alter full dis- dates ‘for the ministry. the report that there were 16 candidates for the ministry in the Synod, a less number than we ought to have. This report was followed by an address by Rev. E. M. Rich- ardson, of Memphis, the General Assembly's Agent of Education. He discussed the value of the Gospel Ministry to the world, gave reasons for lack of an adequate supply, said that there was only a net increase of six miuisters last year in the whole church. flis address was full of thought, and was listened to with interest. Asheville was selected as the place of the next meeting of the Synod, and the 27th of September, 1882, as. the time. The Synod ha; never yet met west of the Blue Ridge, aid the time and place will furnish a de- lightful opportunity, not only to enjoy the heatty hospitality of the Asheville people, but to see some of the wonders of nature and art, on the way thither. F In the evening the church was crowded by the citizens as well as by the Synod, for religious worship. The Rev. Mr. Downey, of Raleigh, preached a sermon from 1 Tim., 1:15: This isa faithful saying, etc. After the sermon, a letter from Rev. Jno, W. Davis, of Soochow, China, was read, giving an account of his werk there from the beginning. This letter was listened to with great interest, for Mr. Davis is much beloved by the Synod, as onr only repre- sentative in the fercign ficld. This letter was referred tothe Pastor of the Salisbury church to be answered, and its publication in the N. C. Presbyterian requested. At the close of religious services the sub- ject of Education was resumed, and the Rey. Dr. Latimer gave an interesting, and encouraging account of the condition and prospects of Davidson College. He ven- tured the prediction that a Jarge number of students would soon be found there. Al- ready there are more than were ever there before, £0 early in the scssian. He was fo!- lowed by the Rey. Mi. Jordan, who in his pleasant, and interesting way, sounded the praises of the College. His statements as to the grade of its scholarship appeared novel to many, but he stooil prepared to establish the claim by the best of testimony. FourtH Day—SaTurpbay MORNING. The Synod met, in smaller numbers than | yesterday, and attended to various itcms of routine business. A report om Sabbath scheols was adoptcd—the report of the Treasurer approved, etc. At 11 o'clock re- , ligious services were held, and a sermon was | preached by the Rev. Sam. M. Smith, of Washington. After sermon, it was announc- ed the Rev. Dr. Latimer, of Davidson Col- lege would preach in the church this even- ing. rr ED eI reer The Speed of the Times. A memorable incident of ‘Govern- /or’s day’ at the Atlanta Exposition, was the manufacture of two suits of clothes out of cotton taken from the field at 7 o’clock in the morning, and | Worn in the evening of the same day. Yhis story is briefly narrated as fol- lows :” “At an early hour the cotton was |picked from a patch on the grounds ; belonging to M. U. Sloan, ef Nor- (cross. ‘The cotten was of the variety ‘known as the Ozier silk cotton and Was pronounced as fine short staple as was ever seen in this country. At | seven o'clock it was ginned ina twink- iling and at once started upon the ‘Journey which was to end so quickly, }and in such an astonishingly changed appearance for the cotton. The gin- ning of the entire lot required less than twenty minutes, It was then taken at once to the picker where it spent balfan hour. The crowd that was watching the process of manufac- ture had grown to considerable pro- portions, and as the cotton passed from machine to machine the enthusi- }asm was intense. After leaving the picker, the cotton went to the cards. These remarkably perfect pieces of mechanicisal were watched with the greatest admiration, In half an hoar minutes more it was going to the loom. As the Compton loom, which was the one in use, started with its evergetic clatter there was euthusiasm enough to give a rousing three cheers. The material for the vest began to make its apearance at 9 o’clock and that for the coat and pants emerged an hour Jater. The cloth came thre’ rapidly, and at half-past twelve the first piece of goods for the suits was taken to Thomas’ dye-house, and in twenty-seven minutes had been dyed, dried and was ready for the tailors. This quick work was done by Mr. M. Henry, who represents N. Spencer Thomas’ dying processes, ‘The man- ipulation of the loom was done un- der the directtion of Mr. J. Clark, who is with the Compton display. At 12:55 cotton that less than six hours before was hanging upon the stalk was handed to Mr. Grosse, the tailor, to be cut out. The sewing was done at the Wheeler & Wilson exhibit. At five minutes af- ter six the suits were completed, and at 7 o'clock Governor Biglow was en- cased in one, receiving a delegation from the Atlanta University at the residence of Director-General Kim- ball, while Gov. Colquit, at the Executive Mansion, was admiring the first walnut picker coat that had ever fallen to his portion, em The wrecking of the Mechanics’ Na- tional Bank of Newark was so complete— ly done that the woader is that the eash- ier did not sell the bank building itself, He entered the institution when a boy, uearly forty years ago; in 1852 was made assistant cashier and in 1861 became the cashier. His salary was $5,000. The directors let him run the business with- out question, having implicit confidence iu lis integrity. He got in the power of some manufacturers, who, first and last made him lend them about $2,000,000 of the bank’s money, which is all gone. The money, he pretended, was on dcpos- it in New York, whereas the Mechanics’ really owed the New York banks $2v0,- 000. The irregularities cover a space of cight years.

Those who have been to Atlanta speak in high praise of the exhibit of North Carolina products. The Ral- eigh Observer has had a conyersation with Gov, Jarvis, Commissioner Me- Gehee and F. H. Busbee, Esq., who have just returned from Atlanta, and speaks in the following cheering man- ner of the display made by the “Old North State”: “While mach is on exhibition, yet new articles ge to Atlanta from North Carolina every day. In response to an inquiry as to the specially meritorioyps features of the display made by the Department of Agriculture, the Com- missioner said they were those of ores, minerals, building stones, woods, graius, maris, jute, wines, yellow to- bacco, cotton, cotton and _ woolen fabrics and silk. There are, as has been before stated two North Carolina exhibits, each of about the same size, one by the De- partnent of Agriculture, the other by the Richmond & Danville Railroad. These act in perfect concert. The dis- tinctive display of the Department covers some 1,500 feet. The pecu- liarity of it is its vast range of min- erals and metals, for while some States show large specimens of a few things only, the aim of our depart- ment has been not to shew great mas- ses, but just enough to indicate the extent to which minerals, ete., occur and their quality. Many of our min- erals havea purely scientific value. These are not shown, but only those which are proper in an industrial ex- position, as showing sources of im- mediate in wealth. The exhibit of grains is epecially noteworthy. It is not made for quantity, but for quality. That of wheat attracts unusual attention for marked excellence. Repeated inqui- ries for the North Carolina wheat, for sced, are made, Alamance, Meck- lenburg, and Cabarrus show the best specimens, the first named county taking precedence perhaps, though some from Cabarrus weighs sixty pounds to the bushel. Lowland rice is shown in grain and in the sheaf, and is as choice as the choicest. Our rice industry is constantly being de- veloped. Upland rice will also be exhibited. The exhibit of corn is also as yet incomplete, but will be a re- markably fine ene. The preeminent exhibit is that of our famous yellow leaf, “bright” to- bacco. This is shown from no less than ten counties, embracing the whole “golden belt” extending from Carolina stands incontestably alone. At least one hundred specimens are shown. Of marbles and granite building stones there are ten choice specimens, all highly polished. The more beau- tiful marbles are. from Cherokee, Macon and Swain counties. ‘The ex- treme beauty of these attracts atten- tion. The famous mill stones from Moovre county, said to be the equal of any in the world, are noteworthy. It is said that in Moore one of these stones has been in use a hundred years. . Coruudum, that rare and valuable mineral, is shown in its choicest con- dition. This and the mica exhibit are among the finest ever made in the world and are distinctively North Carolinian. More Corundum is min- ed here than in all the other States. There are no less than 56 mica mines of importance, and this State is almost the sole source of supply. Of woods no less than 112 varieties are admirably exhibited. These are from the Jiye oak of our coast to the white pine and balsam of our moun- tains. This display of wood is anoth- er feature of the exhibition, for no State comes near it in extent, variety er beauty. In wines we are likewise unap- proached and unapproachable. Green, Garrett and Hunt also also have spendid specimens of champange, claret, hock, port, ete., as well as cognac brandy, which only needs age to make it cqual to that of France. This wine exhibit is commented upon by every visitor to the exposition’ In all some ten varieties areshown. Thic elegance of the display equals its ex- Madison to Granville. In this North | Tr cellence. There are numberless in- quiries about our wines, particularly by the Northern visitors. In cotton goods the display is ad- mirable, and will bear comparison with that of any State. The pro- ducts of ten mills are shown, The department will haveon exhibi- tion ten bales of cotton, each thought worthy to compete fur the great prize of $1,000. The choicest woolen goods are not yet displayed, but they are of the highest quality. There are cas- simers of high degree of excellence, zephyrs, and beautiful colored yarns. Finally, the silk exhibit is marvel- ous. All stages, the cocoen, floss silk, and spun and reeled silk are shown in glass case six feet square. Six of our counties make exhibits in this peculiar article, and again is North Carolina pre-eminent, for the only other silk shown is some in cocoons by Texas and Kansas. Taking the wide range of our ex- hibition our State is easily and undeniably first. So says Direcetor- General Kimball, and such is the ver- dict of the public.” Where Sleep the Great.

Formerly he was the hardest worked man in the city. Edison has over 70,000 lamps stacked up at his factory at Menlo Park, and is turning them out at the rate of 1,000 per day. It looks as if somebody had faith in the Edison lamp. The precision of modern engineer- ing is forcibly illustrated by the re- cently accomplished feat of picking up a long-unused ocean cable from a depth of 2,000 fathoms. To find such a thread two miles under the sca is a a great achievement. “Want any species of cloves ?” asked a peddler of a saloon keeper one day this week. ‘Vat for I vantum?” asked the proprietor. “To take away the smell of beer from the breath,” exclaimed the ped- dler. “Take away dot smell ov beer!’ exclaimed the man bebind the counter. “You got sgmedings vat mades der smell stay on, I bays him.” Mr. Arthur is the sixth President who went wifeless the White House.

In whatever you are called upon to do, endeavor to maintain a calm, col- lected and prayerful state of mind. Self-recollection is of great impor- tance. ‘It is good for a man to wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord.’ He who is in what may called a spir- itual harry, or rather who rons with- out having evidence of being spiritu- ally sent, makes haste to no purpose. An informal meeting of the holders of North Carolina State railroad bonds was held yesterday at the Astor House, New York, and acom- mittee was appeinted to confer with larger holders, with a view to con- certed action, in order to bring about a recognitien of the bonds by the State, which has ignored them for seme years.

Why didn’t they save the sixty Mor- mon children that died in Salt Lake, in August, by that simple process ? The frauds shouldn’t all answer at once.” We go in for big crops of cotton, and we sell it ata big price, but it takes all and more than it brings to buy our supplies for raising the next crop.

SO IMvoutTaNt DeEcis1on.—A decision was rendered in’ Washington, October 31st, on a case which went up to the Supreme Coart of the United Siates from Virginia, which may be regarded as very important fo railroad monoplies, and States leasing their reads. Suit was brought in a Vir- gxinia Court against the Baltimore and Ohio Railrvond Company for damages by the killing of three persons on their line through that State, and a verdict obtaiu- ed {ye which they sought to appeal on the ground that they were not angwera~ ble to the laws of Virginia, but to the laws orthe State under whose charter they The case wept up on a writ of erroy, apd the Court decided that the Railragd Compa- ny, though operating leased lines in an- other State, carried with them thither | were doing business. their chartered rights and privileges as | against the laws of the State sp leasing their property. ’ . A Stalwart View of Garfic!d. publicga paper of Washington City in ag artigle on “Post Mortem Gush,” fhys speaks of the late President: “Gen. makeshift, and was accepted as a candi- ldate by the people with more surprise than cordiality. Whether his death was a national loss or a national gain isa point upon which it would be presaap- iivus to provounee, but the idea that his decease bas created an jrreparable hiatus in the ranks of Ameyicup pstatesauenship borders gn the ridiculous, There area handred thousand mey in the United States as well titted as he for the office of President—as honest, as bigh minded, as sound in judgment, a8 pure socially aud domestically, as well instructed in the principles of republicanism, as capable in affairs and gs loyal to the constitation.’ ‘The article concludes; *Ve pay such hop- oy as might be justifiable when rendered to a deceased deliverer of his country or a great benefactor of his race to one of whom the most that can be said is that he wasa skillful and successful party politician, who accidentally became a President, and died before he had time to do well or ill in that capacity, instead of being a just tribute to the dead, jg a re- flection upon the common sense of the living.” The people of this eountry who voted against Mr. Garfield did so because they preferred Gen. Hancock, and believed the latter more worthy of the high honor of being President of the United States. Af- ter the election was over and Mr. Garfield was declared elected, they accepted the result, not because of any change of mind as 1p his merits, but because by the laws of the country it was their duty. From that time to the assasipation pothing oc- curred to affect the question of relative merit, and it is therefore safe to conclude that there was no change in the minds of those who voted against him. The public sympathy which sprung into existence on the committal of Gui- teau’s crime resulted from the horror ot the bloody deed perpetrated on the per- son of him who represented the whole country. All were shocked and outraged by the act as against the chosen head of the government. It was the killing of the officer, not the man, that touched the moral sensibilities of the people, aud awakened them to deep and unremitting concern While his life hung in suspeuse. There was nothing in the painful suffer- ing of the man to change opinion as to his public or private history—nothing. There have been no developmeuts since his death to change it; and nothing in the character of the public sympathy manifested precluding the bellet it would not have been bestowed ou any other 1e- spectuble cilizen filling the high position of President of the Curted States, a cae gee _ Elections took place on the 8th in New York, Virginia, Mississippi, Massuchu- setts, Connecticut, New Jersey, Peunsyss vania, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Colorado, Nebraska and Maryland. The most im- portant are those of Virgipiy and New York The eye of the whole country has been directed to the struggle in Virginia between the Democrats and the colored hords led by Mahone, flanked and = sup- ported as the latter has been by Northern Republicans and the officials of the Re- publican party. The deserter and betray - er of Virginia has been abundantly sup- plied with money, and will no doubt ex- ert every possible means to carry the State. The New York election is important as offering a prospect for the Demograts to gaip the Legislature which will enable them to correct abuses to which they have Leen subjected im the arrangement of Congressional districts. + Tue Exvections on Tourspay.—The returns from New York and Virginia, though incomplete, indicate the loss Virginia ang the gain of New York the Democrats.

These spots are of a dark iron color, contrasting distinetly with the gray stone of Whieh it is a durable part ; aud the material of which it is composed runs through the stone in waving lines. When split in the course in which they ruu it ceases to be Leopardite but be. comes a Tigerite, for waving stripes take the place of spots. A pretty specimen of this stoue may be seen at this office. We leary trom the Charlotte Observer that Mr. Berryhill, of that city, proposes to cut a block of this stove iv the form of the Leopard and send it to the Atlan- ta Exposition. It will bea curiosity, and a valpable addition to the attractive ex- hibits already there from this State, But how gill Mr. Berryhill prevent the figer stripes, Which seem unavoidable when the stone is cut at an angle with the spots? If the sides of his statue are cut to show Lie spots, his trout aud tail are bound to to be stripped ; or vice versa. If it goes out with stripped sides and flanks it will.! look more likea tiger than a leopard, and mar the fitness of the name. ‘THE SYNOD OF NORTH CAR- | OLINA AT SALISBURY. The Sunday Chronicle, a stalwart Re- | Garticeld was nominated as 3} This lady hag met transacted its lypsi- hess adjourned, and departed, leaving a | sense of loucliness and tender regret in the hearts of our people who were ‘asse- ciated with them. the meeting, there are several points thar are calealated to interest our miuds, Chief among these items is the BUSINESS TRANSACTED. Toa large extent the business of a Synod is to review the operations of the past year. The great uctivities of the Presbyterian Chureh are ranged in some tive or six geveral departments, each un- der the direction of a Committee, Agent or Secretary. Chief among these is the Foreign Mission work. ‘This church has in the Foreigit Field, the following la- borers: Iu South America tive ininisters aud five assistants; in China tive ordained five Querdained laborers; in Greece three ordained and three unordaived lborers ; in Mexico, two ministers aod three ladies; in Indian ‘Territory four ordained and sev- en unordaived laborers; ivitaly one.t ach- ev, makivg iv all forty three inissiovaries. These missions,in round numbers,cost the church as follows: the China Mission $12,- 000,South American Mission $19,000 the Greek Mission $10,000, the Mexicau Mis- sievn $6,000, the Indian Mission $6,000; the Italian Mission 8800, making a tetal of about $55,000, as the annual expendi- ture of the Southern Presbyterian church for Foreign Mission. This sabject was presented to Synod by Rev, R. Z. John- stop, the Agent, aud an address ov China delivered by the Rev. H. C. DuBose, of China, The causes of Edueation, Publi- cation and Colportage, of Home Missions and Sabbath Schools were also presented and ably discussed. But that which clie- ited the most animated discussion was the Evangelistic work in the Synod. It appears that about twenty-nine counties in the State have vo Presbyterian church in them, and fifty-three counties have wide areas of destitution. It is the de- sire and aim of the Synod to plant a a Presbyterian church in every destitute field in the State. ‘lo help on this work the Synod elected two Evangelists, Rev. D. EF. Jordan, and Rev. W. E. Mcllwaine, to labor in these destitute regions. A visitor to the Synod, who was competent to judge, declared the discussion to be the ablest that he had heard upon the subject. Prowincut among the speakers were the Rev. Messrs. Penick, Primrose, Sam]. M. Smith, Cook, Jordan, Currie, McKinnon, Martin. | THE APPEARANCE OF THE BODY. The Synod was made up largely of men in the prime of life, a rather govd-look- ing, healthy and pood tempered set. ot wen. Them high Calvinism does scem to have soured them, and they were able to debate most earnestly without one word or look of ill-nature. There Were no great leaders to gverawe the Synod, and the young men were heard with equal attention as the older. In fact the older members seemed to be very reticent, lately speaking at all. . THE PREACHING both ty the Presbyterian and the other churches was very good. The preachers generally used their manuscripts, but Were vot coufined closely to them. This use of manuscript gave precision and clegance to their sentences, but no doubt most of the discourses would have been wore effective if they had been delivered “without book.” Theit readinessin debate, and theirconcise and laminous ex positions of the principles of chureh governinent,ut- tered without preparation, revealed the fact that every one of them could speak Well without paper. It may well be questioned whether the increase of force and popularity to be gained by extempore preaching would not outweigh the loss in literary elegance, THE MEMBERS OF THE SYNOD AS GUBsTs. Itis a good while—eighteen years, — since our citizens entertained a Presbs - terian Synod. They bad almost foryot- ten how the ministers and elders cou- ducted themselves, but the general testi- nony is that they were pleasan’, compan- tonable men, contented with them homes and accommodatious. Each one seemed to think he had the best place. One writes back that he is disposed to elaim kin with hia amiable hostess, and hopes that eacli of the others was as well enter- tained as le was. The last meeting of the Synod is generally said to be che best but this one is pretty Unanimously agreed to have been the very best Synod that. ever met in North Carolina. At parting the Synod did not give the usual vote of thanks for their entertainment, bat an unusual resolution of thanks was voted. VISITORS FROM ABROAD. A number of distinguished visitors from. abroad were here. Among them was Dr. Peck, of Union Seminary, As a learned divine, a devout, earnest, hum- ble christian, and a suecessful instructor in theology, he ranks ameug the first. in the church. The courteous, gentle and earnest Dr. Hazen, Secretary of Publica- tiou was here, and won many friends and good wishes. Dr. Richardson, Seeretary of Education looked in fora day or two, and awakened interest in his eause. Rev. Mr. DuBose, Missionary to China, made an able address, and won golden opinions here. Taking-itall in all, the present meeting seems to have met the most san- guine expectations of all concerned, CE ete CoTTon CuLTURE.—The census returns show the rather remarkable fact that Missouri yields the highast percentage per acre of cotton. , And the fact has been demonstrated that the plant may be successfully cultivated in sections hitherto considered too far north for its maturity.

The State Fair of the colored people of North Carolina was a grand saccesst strange as it may ‘éeent, the colored peo= ple of North Cardlivavhave exhibited a spirit and energy high)y creditable both to themselves and the State. Governor Vanee attended the Fair and made a speech of which the Raleigh News gives the following report: “Senator Vance was pleasantly intro- dgaced by the colored master of ceremo- vies as a man who had won in the highest degree the regard and respect of the col- ored people of North Carolina, aud as one whom they delight to honor. The Sevator then began a speech of av hour's length, which, from the beginning to the ead, was full of admirable things, good, cheeriug, commendatory words for the colored people. It was an earnest, in- tensely practical talk, with just enough of wit and humor to give it zest. Senator Vauce said : ‘The world moves.’ If any ove bad told) him ten years ago that he would to-day be here addressing the third anuual feir of the colored people he would have been astounded. ‘Tne ex- that character and iutegrity were the poor man’s capital. Again he alluded to the good feeling between the races, and to his delight attlie exbibitieb, and then urged his-hearerg to acquired land, net to be tenants but owners. With much such good advice and amid continuoas ap- plause he closed bis admirable address.” Meetingofthe StateCommissioners.- Gov. Jarvis, Senator Vance and Treas- urers Worth, commissioners of the State in the matter of the Western North Caro- lina road, met yesterday at the Central hotel in this city, and from 10 o’clock in the morning to3in the afternoon, were engaged iu the investigation of the charges of freight djscriminations on the West- ero North Caroliva road. The presence of a newspaper man seemed not to be de- sired, hence a detailed statement.of the investigation cannot be given. It is learu- ed, however, that suudry freight bills were exhibited which showed apparent discrimination, and that the reply of the authorities was ina majority of cases, “over charges.” There were, it is said, sume cvincidental and conflicting ‘‘over and does the State credit. ‘The people of other States cannot realize its extent, its merit, its importance. you were slaves, set free by violence, af- tera long civil war, with no laud, no houses, bo property of any kind, and now, Sixteey years ago wish you God-speed in your work of pro- | gress and advancement, moral, social and | industrial.

A Miss in her teens said to us; ‘A horse sweats, men perspire.’ By turn- ing to the dictionary she would have found that sweat is a good Anglo- Saxon word, and that many languages contain it. The Bible says; ‘In the sweat of thy face.’ Milton, Shake- kpeare and the great poets generally use it. Tosaw sweat is regarded as very unrefined now-a-days. This is on a par with saying ill for sick, A few years ago to eat with your fork was regarded as the height of yul- garity. Now, according to society usage, it is equally vulgar to eat without it. Sweat isa good old word and we use it on occasion and some- times, as the lawyers say, ‘with malice prepense.’ isa vast deal of nauseating sentimentality in the pro- prieties of so-called ‘potite society.’ A good plain word is very offensive {o acertain class when the minor morals mav be in a state of dilapida- tion. Modern socicty is in some things over nice. It strains outa; gnat and swallows a camel often. Euphuism is overdone now and ibe. A spade is aspade. This does not mean that you should use obscene words, That is without excuse, ‘A waut of decency is & want of sense.” Tt meaus that there are many words that are proper, are legitimate, are forecful, and should be used, that are tabooed by so-called society. The illustrious Coleridge —one of the greatest of Inglish poets—satd that when he visited the city of Colonge he detected some sixty, we think it was, “distinct sinks.” This horrifies socie- ty.

Once that stalwart Ken- foppish young constituent who had just returved from Paris, and said to him: “J received your card the other day. I reecgnized your fathey’s name, which is the same as yours, and supposed that it was his son; but what did the letters E. P., written in a corner, mean?” “Why, Mr. Sena- tor,” replied the traveled man, “it is customary in Paris to write the ini- tials of certain words on leaving cards. For instance, had I been going away, I should have written Pots@satic initials of Powr prendre conge to take leave. As it was, calling myself, I wrote E.

I said thatthe one was poisonous and the other a murderous treatment, the remedial power of nature had not only to cure the digease, but to eradicate mercurial pojsons and supply new streams of biood to exhansted patients: which was too mach fur any constitution; that my plan of treatment ws to remove disease by purifying the blood with Brandreth’s Pills, for when the blood was thus made pure, the medical furce of nature came into full>pley, and, unless God willed otherwise, the patient.was sure to re- cover. Brandreth’s Pills assiat nature in all her efforts. It is nature that cures diseare and not medicine. Every othe: course of ireat- ment only throws great ob-tacles in the way of he constitution, I am happy to say (hai bleed- tng, which I said was always improper, has been generally abandoned by the medical pro- fession, and that the poisonons qualities of mer- cury have been so far recognized that the use of it hae been forbidden in the United States Army, by the Surgeon-General, In the calen- dar for 1881, I publish numerous cases of cures by Brandreth’s Pills, some of them so remark- able as to be Jittle short of miraculous: But thev aretrue, and the witnesses can be seen and cunaulted, If Brandreth’s Pills were used in every family, each box would be a magazine of healih and a perfect medicine chest.

This was not reassuring to the scout concealed under the rafters above. It was probable that he would be dis- ;covered, in which case death would follow. There was but one thing to do—to sell his life dearly. After ran- sacking every room on the first and second floors, the ladies had attempt- ed to divert their attention from it, but ene of them asked : | ‘What room is that up there ?’ ‘The garret,’ was the reply. ‘He may be there—show the way. ‘You see the way,’ returned the young laky, ‘I do not wish to go ap in the dust; it would soil ny dress,’ | ‘You go before, then,’ said the ‘trooper to a negro girl who had been made to carry about'a lighted candle, for night had come now.

Towle recalls the bright career and remarkable achievements of a distinguished American civil engireer. Mr. Towle was a passenger on the famous Great Eastern daring her memorable voyage across the Atlantic when she en- countered a great storm which broke her steering apparatus. Her commander and crew could do nothing in the terrible emergeney,and she lity | ract'cal y! elp'ess at the mercy of the waves. In this eriti- cal moment Mr. Towle carefully and with self- posession examined the broken ma- chinery and rigged up from the material at hand an apparatus of his own design- ing, which proved equal to the argent needs of the situation. The. improvised rudder brought the great vessel eafely in port, and the great distinguished’ Ameri- can receiyed from the grateful pussengers who deemed their lives to have been saved by him, the gift of a superb: gold watch, ornamented with costly jewels, and engraved with a memorial inscrip- tion commemorating the historical feat of engineering. This timepiece he wore with conscious pride during his lifetime, and he also exhibited at times with an equally pardonable egotism, a medal presented to him by an English hnwane society in recognition of his achievement. The steamship owners, of all who profit- ed by his knowledge of engineering, how- ever, were, it seems, the only ones to dis- pute the value of his splendid services, and he was compelled to bring suit te recover the salvage to which he was just- ly entitled. Atthetime ef the terrible shipwreck of the ill-fated Atlantic he delivered a lecture in Cooper Institute, asserting boldly according to his knowl- edge of navigation, that the disaster was attributable to faulty seamanship. From early boyhood he displayed a noteworthy inventive faculty, and rigged up all sorts of ingenious toy water-wheels and the like. This surprising supply of clever ideas seemed to grow with his years, and the ingenious conceptions with which his active, mature brain teemed, and many of which bore fruit in useful engineering inventions, seemed endless. He designed a surveying level, which met a long-felt need ; was instrumental in the perfection of the Towle bell-register, adopted by the Third avenue surface railway at the advent of the bell-punch, and was inter- ested in a host of other inventions, of which a machine for type setting, self- inking letter-stamps, telegraphic instru- ments, argand burners, patent washing chemicals, theodolites, and weighing scales were but a few. Before his illness he was head of the Towle Manufacturing company, in Cortlandt street, in this city. The saddest feature of his death is that it is reported to have been due to the weakening of a brain whose strength and extensive creative power made him at times a marvel to his friends and asso- ciates.— New York Times. eee A MILLIONAIRE BrEGGAR.-~-A_ Dlind clild of Italy bearing upon, his manly breast a placard with the legend, “I am a poor blind man caused by small pox,” and led by a bright-eyed vivacious little brunette, who called herselt his daughter, yandering yesterday from house to house begging a pitance. Many, no doubt, opened their hearts in pity for the man and child, and it will without doubt be very pleasant for them to hear that the “poor blind man caused by small pox,” was seen yesterday, by a gentleman of this city, to count out $5,000 in clean cash destined for his paternal ancestor amongst the white walls and blue hills of distant sunny Italy. The reporter did not see tho roll, and this comes at third hand, but it comes straight. Possibly the man of small pox origin could be induced to invest in Southern securities.

In Morocco, about the middle of No- vember, that is after a rainy season which begins in July, a gummy juice ex- udes spontaneously from the trunk and principal branches of the acacia tree. In about fifteen days it thickens in the fur- row down which it;runs, either in a vermi- cular (or worm) shape, or commonly as- suming the form of oval or round tears, about tho size of a pigeon's egg of differ- ent colors, as they belong to the red or white gum tree. Abuut the middle of December the Moors encamp on the bor- ders of the forest and the harvest lasts six weeks. The gum is packed in very large sacks of Jeather, and brought on the backs of bullocks and camels to cer- tain ports, where it is sold to english and French merchants. The gum is highly nutritious. During the whole time of harvest, of the journey and of the fair, the Moors of the desert live almost en- tirely upon it; and expe: ience has prov- ed that six ounces of gum are sufficient for the support ot a man for twenty-four hours.— London Family Herald, The latest about A.

To-day they will visit several places where in course of investigation it was developed that members of the regiment had damaged property and committed other wanton acts, and at 5 o'clock will leave for home. There is nothing to buse an opinion on as to what recommenda- tion the committtee will make in the irre- port, as they have made no statement whatever iu regard to the matter. An astonishing amount of testimony Las been taken by the commission. The quantity and character are much greater and more damaging than was ever anticipated by previous representations. Mayor DeWolfe states that on hia returiz: last week from Tennessee via the French Broad pass he encounter- ed upon the stage two Mormon mis- sionaries who stated that they were from Beaver, a town in Utah about 80 miles from Salt Lake. They were sent from their Eastern headquarters at Nashville where the latter day saints have a bishop or his equivalent. They said they would spend a year at least in Western North Carolina and made no bones of the fact that their Lusiness was as Mormon propa- gandists. They talk quite freely of their religion and although they ac- knowledged that about half of the con- verts to the religion of Joe Smith af- terwards apostatized they said they never knew such an apostate who was happy afterwards. They called the pass of the French Broad a “canyon,” which first attracted attention. They got off at Bridgewater, on the West- ern North Carolina Railroad, and plunged boldly into the wilderness. They seemed to be ignorant though strong-minded men.— Char. Obs. ——__—_——-o Wise Words. Try your skill in gilt first, then in gold.

He had threatened to cut her throat if she told of it, and terrorized her into silence. Thursday night he wasarrested and Friday morning was taken to Wil- liamston and identified by the child. He was then taken from the guard house at that place by citizens of Anderson and Greenville and brought back, being marched through Pelzer about 11 o'clock Friday, attended. by probably one hua- dred men of both colors. He was notified of his impending fate, and acted very coolly, calling a colored man to him to whom he confessed his crime, and_prof- fered a request for a preacher, which was granted. Just across the Saluda River in the woods he was hanged to & tree that inclined over a hill side, being put on a horse, which was driven from under hia after the rope had been properly adjusted. He died very easily and was stolid and unmoved to the last. There was not the least excitement or disturbance, the whole affair being conducted in a quiet and business style.

There syete excplional cases of cruelty no doubt, but they were rare. There was no country on the face of the earth where there was more real persoval contentwnent, comfort and happiness. There wag nove where the precepts of the holy Word ot God were wore nearly the rule of lite for all. There Was none where a purer patri- otism existed, or a stricter obedience to law was practiced. But it has passed away. A new order of things has been instituted, whether for the better or the worse Lime alove can prove. The syw- paties or early impressions of the present fading away; and the time wil come when the antagonism of race may be expected to assert itself more distinetly than pow. The Indian iv the path of the onward march of the white man melts away. Indeed, that seems to be the fate of all inferior races. It is sometimes at- tended with severe and long continued struggles; but the final result is the same. Should the Southern States become dense~ ly populated with a ativring, enterprising people, such ag are vow coming in from the North, brivging in machinery and money, marvelous physical changes will ensue and these will as certainly institute great mora and social changes. It is easy to seo that inferior races must cifher march to the music or march out of the arcna. al i Tue trial of Guiteau was opeved in Washington on Monday. The prisoner bas his brother-in-law Scoville, and Leigh Robinson for counsel. Mr. Robin- son put ina plea for time to get ready for trial, whereupon, the prisoner, against the e(forts of his friends to restraiu him, got in a speceh in which he protested against any further delay, declaring the trial should go on. The courtroom has been arranged with special reference to a big and interesting occasion. A trial that would occayx one or two days of a North Carolina court will probably be spun out to one or two mouths in Washington. Lawyers, jurors, wituggses (a great noniber) and Jase but not least, bewspaper men, have all high hopes of making a good deal of money out of Guiteau’s case, and “don't you forget it.” He will be acquited at last, op the plea of iusanity, and will be seut to some asylum, where he wll bg made the recipicut ef floral offerings, embroid- ered slippers and pretty neck ties from tender-hearted jadies, whose sympathies run with offenders and against the ill- used jery auts who do their couking and washing. i AE Engineering Inventions. A novel means for raising water from a well, cistern, or other receptacle, and conveying it to a distance and there dis- charging it, has been patented by Mr. James C. Richardson, of Boscobel, Wis. A wire track, {neclining upwardly, is ex- tended from the curb of the well, etc., to the place of discharge, and on this track a carriage, controlled by a rope and wind- lass, is arranged to run. Connected with this currigge by spring bolts is a bucket carrier, which, on reaching the well, is automatically released, to allow for the descent and filling of the bucket, after which the bucket carrier is raised by the rope and made to automatically engage with the carriage, that is drawn up the track till the bucket meets with a tilting stop, Which causes the water to be dis- charged.—Scientific American. This is not anew thing. There were quite a number of telegraph water-car- riers in this county more 30 years ago, answering to the above descriptinn ex- actly. They went ont of uee but why, we do not know; for they certainly were economical of time and labor, where the spring or well was situated at a diatance from the place of delivery, usnally on elevated grouud. It saved both time and steep hill, which, at certain umpleasant seasons of the year, ig very important. Mr. James C. Richardson, of Boscobel, Wisconsin, isa humbug. His patent is the revival or modification of an old one long since expired. | The celebrated Clement attachment for the manufacture of cotton yarn from eotton in the seed, is also a revival or modification of an old patent. Elijah P. | Mitchell manufactured and sold scores of machines of this kind in this town years ago. —_——__ _-~<>>-— ——-—_— Hon. R. B.

But yesterday, tionality, aud prefaced the brightest and most wonderful book in the annals of peoples To-day, Virginia sets humilia- tel and debauched, wearing the ‘‘sorrows crown of sorrow,” ber fair fame, her vows and hey obligations repudiated. The hills of Virgtuia took across the Potomac upon Washington, with its marble Capitol, the White House, apd the Treasury of the United States. In these, see the cause af disgrace of the once beautiful aud chaste, In the Capitol of the United States, Senators conspired and coHenguesl with an apostate Virginian. Two Presi- dents of the United States gxecuted the pact of conspiracy, and, through the ‘Trensurygevery tax payer in the United States of Americay-woleng roleng, has been made accessory to the crime. In all the bidterness of her gegredatian Virginia has the wretched consolation that her shame was compassed not alone by traitorious sons, but by the Sepate of the United States, by two Presidents of the United States, and by the Treasyry of the United States. If there is an houvest tax payer in the Union, let him reflect that the money he paid into the National Treasury passed through the. hands of Government em- ployees inty the corruption fund of Ma- hone, If there isa man in the United States who remembers the legend of “civil service reform,” honored with the lips of the party of “moral ideas,” let him know that handreds of experienced and faithful postmasters were removed from their offices in Virginia, by Presi- dents Garfield and Arthur, in compliauce with the pact with Mahone. A DISGRUNTLED EX CABINET OFFICER. Perhaps the most thoroughly disap- pointed, and, as Bunthorue woyld say, “bitter hearted one” in Washington, at the present time, is Ex. P. M. Geveral Tyner. It was he who first discovered the Star Route villiany. His great mis- take was that he did vot turn the lights upon it, but concealed it in a napkio. In due time the little patent reformer Mr. James, poking about in the pigeon holes Correspondence of the Charlotte Ob erver nearly all the cabinet being out of the city. How the President's absence alfects news may not be understood away froin here, but it does act upon news as the weather does upon a thermometer. For iustance, there are pow awailing the President's signature po Jess than forty commissions of postmasters. ‘These offi- cers have all bounded, ang iv some in- stances the offices are withoyt an official head. He is, however, expected back to- morrow, when the business of the govern- ment, which is always made of seeondary importance to fie success of the Republi- can party, will receive attention. With him will return several bureau officers of the postoflice department, who went to New York to vote. Speaking of elections in general, and of Virginia ia particular, regglla the fact that much, and perhgyus andue impar- tance is attached to the vote of that State. It is, however, useless to conceal the fact that iu Republican cireles here it is re- garded asthe enterivg wedge that will split the solid South. It is uo unusual thing to hear that North Carolina will follow upoa the heels of Virginia and join in what the Republicans are pleased to term the rejuvenated and rehabilitat- ed South. They expect Tennessee to fol- low the old North State, aud thus to break the backbone of Democratic supremacy iu that section. Whether or pot these rose-colored views of Republican Utopias will be realized is, of course, for one at this distauce impossible to know, but certuin it ia tthat they are entertained by men who are not given to wild and reck- less assertions. News of a local or State character is quiet at present, the only matters of any jnterest at all being a few postoffices. There are two classes of postotiices—one Presidential and the other minor offices. Oftices of the first claws are those whose receipts reach a certain amount upon which the salary of the postiyaster is reg- ulated. If the salary reaches over $1,000 a year this lifts it into the Presideutial class and the appointment is made by the President. Appointwents to the mi- nor offices are made bs the Postmaster- General himself.

For the parpose vf obtaining a high grade of expan- sion and a noiseless exhaust, the cut- off is arranged on the back of the slide, as above stated, which is in- stantly aljustible toany desired grade by means of au ingenious hand device within the cab. A new and peculiar feature of this engine is the use of the main cylinders for working the vacuum breaks, which 1s done by sinsply putting the revers- ing lever in mid-gear, when the main eylinders become vacuum punips, thereby greatly simplifying the hand- ling of the tram.

They were observed in every place where the shocks were such as to be generally perceptible. Some minutes before they were felt the oxen and cows began to bellow, the sheep and goats bleated, and rushing into con- fusion ove on the other, tried ta break the wicker-work of the folds, the dogs howled terribly, the geese and fowls were alarmed, and made much ‘noise; the horses, which were fastened in their stalls, were greatly agitated, leaped up and tried to break the halters with which they were attached to the mangers; those which were proceeding on the roads sud- denly stopped and snorted in a very strange way. The cats were frightened, and tried to conceal themselves, or their hair bristled up wildly. Rabbits and moles were seen to leave their heles; birds rose as if scared, from the places on which they had alighted ; and fish left the bottom of the sea, approached the shores, where at some places great num- bers of them were taken. Even ants and reptiles abandoned, in clear daylight their subterranean holes in great disor- der, many hours before the shocks were felt. Some dogs a few minutes before, the first shock took place, awoke their sleeping masters by barking and pulling them as if they wished to warn them of the impending danger, and several per- sons were thus enabled to save them- selves. 2 nee ae A Richmond, Va., dispatch says itis sta- ted on the best authority that there is no foundation for the published reports that the control of the Richmond & Danville Railroad Company islikely to change hands, eee The Color and Lustre of Youth are restor- ed to faded or vray hair by the use of Par ker’s Hair Balsam, a harmless dressing high ly esteemed for its perfume and purity 0c13-Nov13 RAO TATRA, SRO AE ILE, CARER 5 Sat ARES | PT Ella TK a NOTICE TO CREDITORS!

Thirty year’s experience has firmly rooted Allcock’s Porous Plaster in public estimation, Their wonderful adaptability tO the various symtoms of disease ia a marvel to medical men of all schools. For nervons persons and luna- tics, one or more applied to the spine produc- ed sleep when opiates, even hydrate of chloral, had been of little servire. Now, when one can- not sleep, its is the common practice to apply a Plaster tu the back. You scarcely touch the pillow before you are sound asleep. Alleocks Porous Plasters have the curative effect of the Spanish fly blisters, yet make no sore, and never affect the kidneys ; are conveni- eut for all ages and conditions, usually only proéducirg a “blush” on theskin, and more cer- tainly curative than liniments or blistera, and without prostratioa or pain of the latter. This is true even in Croup, Quinsy, Pleurisy, Lung and Throat A ffections, aud the utility of this sanilary invention has been warmly wel— comed. They are largely sold inevery part of the world, and it is believed that not less than five hundred thousand persons are well, and attending to the duties of life, free from pain, whohave an Allcock’s Porous Plaster some- whereabou them, and who, but for the said plaster, would be prostrate upon a bed of ago- ny. Besides, a peculiar piny, pleasant odor, halo, or atmosphere exhales from them by the warmth of the body, imperceptible to the eye, but which envelops the person in a cloud of thin vapor, through which contagion cannot penetrate. In fact, Allcock’s Plasters supply an atmosphere like that from balsam or pine woods, and no doubt attract ozone. When contagious or infeet- cus diseases are about, they should be worn on the stest or back as preventives. THE ALLCOCK’S POROUS PLASTER oothas pain, reanimates torpid limba, seerns, in nyany canes, to revive the powers of life. The great demand proves them to be used as a universal remedy. They are convenient of ap- plication, and safe for all, being incapable of producing any injurious effects, Dr. Vatentine Mott, Dr. Johnson, of Hart- ford, and Dr. Myers, of Savannah, havespoken of them in the highest terms. The great Mott said: “They were all that could be hoped for ina plaster—aimple, cleanly and adhesive; perfect as artificial supporters of the muscles ; aod for pains, because of their counter-irritant qualities, uxually at once giving ease.” Local weakness of the back, breast and side, always benefited, thus curing lumbago in a few hours, sometimes In a few minutea. In serious heart and chest affections their use causez an absorption or evaporation of wa- ter, by which dropsy of the heart and hydro- thorax have undoubtedly been cured. They appear to havea peculiar effect upon the nervous, allaying irritability while supply ing warmth. They seem to accmulate elec- tricity, and aid the circulation of the bload through the part where applied, by which healthy actions are induced. The Porous Plasters are flexible, and found of great help to those who have weak backs or pains in the side. Especially are they val- unable to those who have neglected colds. They are often preventiyes of consumption; nay, they are helieved to have loosened the grasp of this terrible affliction, and had been mainly tnstrumental in effecting a cure. In variable ilimates they should be worn on the breast, or cetween the shoulders, or over the kidneys, by bhose who are anbject to take cold easily. Thin simple plan will soon praduce constitutional vigor that will enable one to resist extraordi- nary changes of temperature. Experience hae proved the Porons Plaster to be a blessing to the consumptively inclined, invariably produe- ing the most remarkable abatement of the worst symptoms.

Sontag C Orne OER wn WOE Bisa Py, o lina Synod of the Presdyterian chureh, It was our privilege to meet there a friend whom we had not seen in nearly years, the Rev. Dr. Hazen, of tichmond, Va. Fourteen years ago we spent cight months at Prattsville, Autan ga conuty, Alabama, when Dr. Hazen was the pastor of the Presbytenian church at that plaice. The meeting ealled to miud an interesting epoch of our life, and was to us both, a meeting of intense in- terest. We met with many warm friends at Synod, and felt ourself amply repaid fourteen tor our visit. We visited the salesrooms of Messrs. M.S. Brown and John F. Ross. At the former place we were greeted by our friends, M.S. Brown, Jas. Heilig and Charlie Graham. They were happy in the midst of a magniticeut stock of goods, piled in] mounds on counters, tables and shelves throughout their capacious store roome, and busy as bees waiting on cus- tomers. They are doivg a splendid busi- ness and well deserve the patronage they receive from the citizens of Salisbury, and Rowan, and adjoining counties. At Mr. Ross’ we greeted the happy face of our friend, Ed Overman, late from the eash desk of Cannons & Fetzer, of this town. He says that they are having a fine trade. They have a splendid stock, autlall hands were busy. We = stepped With that prince of hotelists, Col. Brown, of the Boyden IHlouse.

Mr. Andrews iuforms us that all sections of the county were represented in the meeting, and that a deep interest was manifested. He also stated that speeches were made by Mr. Hf. A. London, and several other gen- tlemen, as well as by himself. He ex- plained the scheme of the Midland read and called upon the people to subscribe in aid of it if they considered it a benefit. The result was that befure the people left the hall $10,000 was subscribed. Committees were appointed to wait upon the people in all parts of the county. Mr. Andrews says that assurances were given that $40,000 would be subscribed in Chat- ham. Ttappears that receutly a survey- ing party in that county disbanded aud that this gave rise (o rumors that work op the road was discontinued, but he says that his presence and action at the meet- ing showed the people that there was not the least foaudation for the rumors.

A good many years ago a man whe had reeently arrived from the Bermu- da Islands was seat to York county, Pa., jail for some offense committed agalust the laws of the commonwealth. Hehad with him a few seeds which he planted in the rich soil of the jail yard. Before the plants which sprang trom the seed reached maturity he was discharged, and no one knew the name or nature of them. They grew luxuriantly, bearing fruit of a large size and unusual appearance. As this strange fruit ripened its color changed trom green to a brilliant red, and be- came an object of wonder and admi- ration to all the inmates of the jail. Mrs. Kiinefelter, the lady keeper, cautioned all the prisoners against eating any of the fruit, a3 she was sure it Wi3 poisonous, and besides she had promised the man who had plant- ed the seed that she would endeavor to preserve specimens of it for him should he return in time. Just when the fruit was fully ma- tured the Bermada prisoner revisited the jail and asked to see the plant. ‘The request granted, he next called for pepper, salt and vinegar, and to horror of the good lady, commenced tu eat the supposed poisonous fruit with a relish that astonished the be- holders. After enjoying the strange repast, he informed Mrs. K. that the fruit or vegetable was the tomato or leve apple, and it would be found wholesome and nutritious, ‘The seeds of the remaining tomatoes were care- fully preserved and distributed among the friends and neighbors of the lady and thus this now popular esculent was introduced into the ancient and Nashville and Chattanooga Railway |~ y goodly borough of York.

The Russians have strengthened their army by the novel addition to each company of a pack of powerful and carefully trained dogs. These watchful animals are sent out with the sentinels on picket duty where their sharp ears and still keener scent will prove impregnable barriers to the lurking spies of the enemy.

It growls but never barks— a matter of the first importance to sol- diers near an enemy’s camp.

Time is a wave which never marmurs, because there is no obstacle to its flow. The worth of a State, in the long run, is the worth of the iudividuals composing it. “Evil often stops short at itself, and dies with the doer of it, but goud, Juever. Truth is the most powerful thing in the world, since fiction can ouly please us ivy its resemblance to it. It is extraordinary how loug a man may look among the crowd without dis- covering the face of a friend. If temperance prevaile, then education can prevail ; if temperance fails theu ed- ucation most fail. Mau himself is the crowuing wouder of creation ; the study of his nature of the noblest study the world affords. Words are often everywhere as the minute hands of the soul, more impor- taut than even the hour bauds of action.

IT have this honr retarued from the Guitean trinl, and will give you my im- pressions While they ave fresh. The court room was so densely crowded that I could uot at first see the prisoner, but pressing Within the bar I secured a seat from which I had an excellent view. As I took my seat, Lheard a sharp, distiuet voice say: “TD want the Court to know that I do not come here on my hauds and knees as acriminal, but as a represeutative of Deity!” Looking in the direction of the voice, I saw a pale, thin, excited, gestic- ulating mau; it was Guiteau. Soon the door of the witness room was opened, and all eyes were tixed on the well known form aud features of James G. Blaine. He was conducted toa seat within the bar. Col. Corkhill vow arose to open the ease for the prosecution. If the reader has seen a verbatim report, I presume he has felt regret and shame that the United States, in so important a case, a case in which the words of counsel will be read in every civilized tongue, should have been so incompetently aud weakly repre- sented, The address was a verbose, rambling, irrelevant harrangue about the late war, the assassination of Lincoln, our form of government, aud it abouuded in sopbomorical flights and hackheyed platitudes—all calculated to confuse the jury as to their duty, and mystify them ws to criminality of the criminal. Con- sidering the cause and the occasion, so much verbal ineptitude has seldom been crowded into as bricf a time. couusel sat down, I thought a sigh of re- lief care from a digusted court and bar.

With arms folded across lis chest, and with perfect poise and composure, but aot without deference to the witness, he questions Mr. Blaine With great skill and directness. His ob- ect was to elicit from a distinguished authority, a history of the cause and ef- fect of the bitter dissensions within the Republican party at the time ef the as Sassination, aud to impress the jury with the idea that these dissensions was cal- culated to throw unsound and loosely pivoted minds off their balance, thus shifting the odium of Guiteau’s offense tu this supposed ulterior cause.

It is necdless to remark, where se talented and efficient an officer is in charge, that the af.- fairs of the office are conducted in the most admirable manner, The report will, as to other matters, speak for itself. The first portion is devoted to the re- ceipts from all sources during the year. We take the following items from those placed under the head of RECEIPTS Tax on ‘bank stock, $3,630 55; tax on corporations, $1,525; license tax on drum- mers, $51,800; license tax on fertilizers, $29,500; fees from Secretary of State, $6,- $94 76; general taxes (on land, property, ete.,) $203.297 88; income tax, $2,256 63: special tax for suppport of the Deaf, Dumb and Blind Ynstitation and Insane Asyluus, $91,134 87; special tax for support of con- victs, work on buildings, etc., at Peniten- tiary, $91,134 69, tax on insurance compa- nies, $10,694 68; intercst on mortgage bunds Western North Carolina Railroad, $59,500; lands redeemed $1,238 96; merchants, tax on purchases, $28,350 80; tax on railroad com panics $8,830 55; license tax on sewing machines, $2,200; sales of stationery to counties, $3,138 09; Supreme Court reports, $1,530 90; 4 tax on purchases of liquors, $16,987 64; for labor of convicts on Wes- tern North Carolina Railroad, $26,479 55. We omit many of the smaller items of revenue in the-above summary. The total receipts, from all sources, during the year were $645,743 05. The next portion of the report is devoted to the DISBURSEMENTS, From this we take the following as being the principal items of expenditure: Audi- tor’s Department, $2.858 73; Code Commnis- sion, $1,910; contingencies, $21,215 04; con- vict} account, $7,030 70; Department of Public Instruction, $1,920 05; Executive Department, $4,673 04; fugitives from jus- tice, $1,353 33; General Assembly, $56,239- 26; support of Insane Asylum at Raleigh, $71,179 55; support of Western Insane Asy- lum at Morganton, $30,000; support of col- ored Insane Asylum at Goldsboro, $15,599- 19; for support of Institutions for the Deaf, Dumb and Blind, $58,000; interest on con. solidated debt, $63,807 00; interest on Wes tern North Carolina Railroad mortgaze bonds, $58,765; judiciary, $37,920 71; nor- mal schools, $4,500; Oxtord Orphan Asy- Inm, $5,000; for support, etc., of Penitentia- ry, $62,000; public printing, $12,763 46; quarantine regulations, $1,389 85; scttling taxes, $1,055 41; State Department, £3 809- 08; Treasury Department, $5,250; State University, $7,500; convict account, Wes- tern North Carolina Railroad, $36,521 22.

After the disburse- meuts above given, $41,952 were on ac- count of the Agricultural Department, being taxes on fertilizers, which ave re- quired by law to be paid into the State treasury for the benetit of that depart- ment, butare vo part of the general fund. Of the $71,179,55 paid on account of the Insaue Asylum at Raleigh, @21,179,55 was forthe year 1880, which was not drawn till the close of that fiscal year, (September 1830.) Of the expenses of the Institution of the Deaf, Dumb and the Blind, $32,500 wis for the year 1880. These amounts aggregate $95,632 29, which being deducted froin the total dis- bursemen ts, leaves the expenses legiti- mately chargeable to this fiscal year $529,784 30. SOURCES OF TAXATION.

Western N orth Carolina Railroad. The State Commissioners of the W2N. C. Railroad completed their investigation aud inapeetion, and. we Iraruyfrom fhe Raleigh Observer that the following is th« substance of tlieir full report : It appears that there were some ten a) legatious of discriminations considered by the commissioners at their recent meet- ing at Charlotte. Many or most of them embraced charges for garriage ever othe: ronds than the Westerh ‘North @arolina Railroad ouly. In the reply made by the alitlioritfes of the Western’ North Caroli- na Railroad, they say that they make full answer ip all matters, but do not admit the right of the commissioner to inquire into facts concerning their eonnecting lines. They say that if any diserivations have occurred on the Western Road they were by accident, and not intended: it having been all the while, and is now, the pat pose and intention of the manage- ment to strictly observe the law. The commissioners, in their record of their proceedings, says: After consider- ing the complaiuts and the answers of the mabagement (of the Western N. C. Rail- road), the commissioners find as a fact that there have been discriminations by the management of the Western North Carolina Railroad Company in violation of the act of sale. Butas some of them had been. already corrected since the com- missioners began their in vestigation, and the managers professed their willingness to correct all and guard against their oc- currence in the future, the commission— ers deem it proper to take no further ac- tion for the present, reserving the right to do so hereafter should it become nec- essary. + See It has always been taken as an unques- tioned fact that the compression of cot- ton for transportation injares its fibre. It seems, however, that some experiments made at the Lowell (N. C.,) mills over- throw this theory, and that the compres- sion is not injurious to the fibre as sup- posed. The same grade of cotton was spun in three parcels—one not com press- ed at all, another compressed in a press such as is generally used on the farm, and the third parcel compressed in a powerful compress to the density of thir- ty pounds to the cubie foot. The densely the cotton was packed the better the thread that was made of it. A’ cor- respondent writing from Atlanta says “this is such a surprising result that oth- er experiments of the same kind will be This is a point of great im- portance, for great compression is neces- sary when the cotton must be transported along distance, and the manufacturers have regarded this as a necessary injary, and buyers have refrained from it when If the result of this expe- riment is corroborated by others, the ex planation will most likely be found in the results of some experiments that have been made at the Massachusetts Inatitute pore mace here.” ever possible. of Technology te determine the size and The ameter ofa single fibre varies from one strength of the fibre of cotton, di- hun- dreth of an inch, and is: stroucer. then It may be that no amount of compression cau break or twelve hundredth to one fourteen iron of the same weight.

There are also established near them for the protection alike of the whites and Indians 37 milita- ry posts, with larger orfsmatler garrisons. Secretary -Kirkwood recommends that these reservations be reduced to five, and that the Tudians be induced to abandon their tribal relations and go to farming, holding their land in severalty, and that they be taught to read and write and live civilized lives after the Christian fashion.

You know Deep Dell —’ ‘Why, Charlie, of course I do.’ in- patient news carrier, in the form of a restless lad of fourteen, clattered noisily inte the quiet, sunny kitchen, and checked the important work of cake-making with his abrupt in- quiry. “Well, you can’t go there any more. The owner’s come back, and stuck up bills ali over everything, that tres- passing won’t be allowed. It’sashame, I think,’ And Charlie sat astride of a kitch- (en chair, and looked dolefully at his sister, as she put down the cake-pan, and regarded bim in turn. ‘The owner of Deep Dell come back ?’ she repeated, musingly. ‘Yes, and locked up all the gates, and stuck up notices that he will pun- ish trespassing on the property. And Pau!, the strawberries are just ripe,’ added Charlie suggestively, looking at the thoughtful face of the girl, as she still considered the startling news of the ‘Squire’s return, after so many | years of absence. The word strawberries her. aroused ‘It is ashame!’ she flashed out then, stamping a strongly-clad foot on the brick hearth, as she popped her cake pan into the oven. ‘And I shall not mind his notices. Notices, in- deed!’ she scoffed with a high head. ‘I’ve picked strawberries from Deep Dell Farm ever since I wasa little child, and he was running wild over the country; and I mean to pick them again te-day.’ ‘But he’ll punish trespassers,’ urg- ed Charlie, with secret delight, think- ing of the cake and strawberries for supper. Pauline furled ier apron like a flag, and nodded her head, ‘Let him?’ ‘What would you dv? wickedly urged the spirit of mischief, rocking bis chair, ‘Let Paul, as she made things tidy about the kitchen, and reached up fora basket beside the dresser. ‘But, look here, Paul, you’re_ the minister's sister, you know, and ought to set an example of—of—’ dhe boy fluundered ia a moral slough, as the steady eyes of his sister settled on his fuce. ‘Ifyou say honesty, Charlie Kirk, the suid calmly, tying her sunbonnet strings under her round chin, ‘you shall net have one berry, no, nor cake either. Minister’s sister or not, I consider I have the right to those berries, when I gathered them years and years before he ever knew any- thing about them. And she walked resolutely to the doer. ‘Well, if he runs across your bew,’ advised Charlie from the gate, watch- ing her reselute face with satisfaction, ‘just put up your boarding-nets and give him a broadside’ Charlie had naval aspirations for the next year, and was gleaning knowledge from a course of Marry- att’s novels, as a useful prelimi- bary. Paul trudged away in silence, pon- dering upon twosubjects—-the ’Squire’s return from his roving life, and the indignity he had put upon the vil- lage, by his netices and barred gates. ‘I will look out for my right,’ she concluded, itlogically, as she climbed the fence into the strawberry patch, ‘and the people can take care of theirs,’ No thought of the ’Squire’s rights entered her mutinous little head, as she filled her basket with his luscious fruit. ‘David always brings home com- pany on Friday evening,’ she solilo- quized, as she picked on industrious- ly, ‘and whoever it is, will enjoy these berries, I know.’ She filled her basket evenly to the brim, and arose with flushed cheeks, disheveled hair, sun-bonnet hanging down by the strings tied under her chin, to find herself face to face with a ~tranger—a man‘ who stead regard- ing her quietly, him!’ laconically retorted ‘ terrupted a bright voice, as the im-| Paul stood motionless. He must be a tramp, in that old brown coat, tr, hat, and dusty top boots. ‘If you please,’ he said, very polite- ly, for a tramp, ‘is this trespassing ?” Paul thought of the notices and _the punishment attending the act, and was sorry for the man. ‘It is,’ she said, calmly ; ‘and you had better leave at once, for there is no knowing what the owner might do, if he caught you.’ And she lifted her basket majesti- cally. ‘Is he so very hard then?’ asked the tramp, with humble deference to her manner. ‘I fancy he is a—a tyrant,’ replied Paul, superbly, ‘and. means to insti- tute reform in all its severest and most disagreeable phases at Deep Dell. So, my good man, you’d better take yourself off.’ With which advice, the minister’s sister went her way over the fence, down into the lane, and heme to Charlie, waiting at the gate and bracing a mainyard, according to his idea of the thing. ‘Well!’ he cried out eagerly, ‘did the enemy show himself?’ Paul lifted the lid of her basket. ‘I saw no one but a tramp—a very gentlemanly tramp, I must say ; and I advised the poor fellow to keep out of harm,’ Charlie -whistled a bar of ‘A Life on the Ocean Wave.’ ‘Here comes David with a geutle- man,’ he said, with sudden gravity. ‘I wonder who his Friday night com- panion is this time? Say, Paul, if it should be the Squire ?’ But the girl had fled within, to at- tend to her tea-table, and see if the little maid-of-all-work had watched the cake carefully. Everything was right, and a dain- tier or better-served table was never, presented to hungry mortals than that to which the minister invited his guest within an incredibly short time after Paul had disappeared from the gate. Charlie Squire. The young girl bowed calmly to the grave, courteous man her brother presented, her eyes resting the while upon the dish of ripe, red berries, with an indignant thought of his bar- red yates and notices. AA puzzled look came into her face as the stranger talked on, and she glanced furtively at him, only te meet his grave eyes full upon her, and to feel the floer rock beneath her feet. ‘So they protest against my claim- ing my own,’ he was saying, in ans- wer tothe minister’s report on the discontent of the village. ‘Lhey will become obcdient enough when they find out I am not a tyrant, Paul could bear no more. She dared not look up as the minister helped his guest to the strawberries, but with a hurried excuse for cream (which was in the little silver jug beside the berries all the while), she left the room with eager steps. She was gone so long that Charlie came to hunt her up, and found her disconsolate and miserable oa the back step. ‘Oh, Charlie!’ she cried. ‘He was the—tramp !’ ‘The gentlemanly tramp!’ and the bey sat down beside her, aghast. ‘What shall I do?” She was so wretched and pale that Charlie arose to the situation at once. ‘I wouldn’t mind, Paulie!’ he said coaxingly. ‘Oh, but I must mind! He is going to raise David’s salary, which means so much to you, Charlie, and to re- pair the church, And, after all, he is right. I didn’t see it unfil I heard him tell David his plans and ideas, and—and what does he think ef me ?” Here a miserable sob choked the pretty voice, and Charlie grew des- perate. ‘Just come in and have it out with him,’ he urged. ‘Make a clean breast of it, and he’ll have to be polite then.’ But Paul lacked courage to confess her fault, and neither then nor long | mouths after, when the ‘Squire was a was right—it was the kind friend to the whole village, could she gain strength to speak, and ask for some little of the kindness he gave others and denied her. The strawberries were ripe again at Deep Dell, and Paul was walking sadly down the lane past the corner fence she used to climb so deftly, thinking not of the berries, not of Charlie away at college, nor of the new cottages dewn in the village, but of her own unpardoned fault, which Jay like a heavy cloud upon Ler path, and looking up she saw the *Squjre quietly regarding her. She paused humbly, ‘Have you nothing to say to me, Panl?’ he agked, ina strange tone. ‘After one long year, have you no word for me?’ With a break in her voice that seemed a part of the tears that would come, Paul forgot her defiance, and thought only of the heavy heart she had carricd so long, and made her confession then and there. ‘The accused pleads guilty, and is recommended to mercy,’ said the Squire, with a bright laugh; ‘but, Paul, I did not mean that.’ Che look- ed up eagerly as he took both hands. ‘And if I give you a free pardon for trespassing on my property, and steal- ing my furit, what shall I ask in re- turn for the peace ef mind you have robbed me of in this lust year ?’ Paul thought of Charlie’s advice, ‘to have it out with him,’ and se said, softly but bravely : ‘The heartache you have given me by your coldness,’ She looked at him fearlessly now, smiling and blashing, as he crushed her hands. ‘Will you bear your sentence ?’ he cried. ‘Yes,’ she softly laughed. ‘Then you are henceforth and for- ever to be mistress, not only of Deep Dell, but owner and manager of the heart and devotion of——’ ‘The gentlemanly Paul, saucy with happiness. ee a eee Why Sherman Wept. tramp! said On dit, that Gen.

JETHRO RUMPLE. The present year has been marked by many strange and important events. It was ushered in by a winter of unusual severity, followed by a summer of extra- ordinary droaght and heat, and the con- sequent decrease in the production of the fruits of the earth. The heavens above us Were distinguished by the rare phe- nomenon of the conjanction of the foar greater planets, while comets blazed in the sky. Two of the rulers of the mighti- est civilized nations—the Czar of Russia, aud the Presidert of the United States, have fallen by the hands of assassins, and there have been remarkable politieal changes and revolutions in our owa coun- try that wight furnish profitable themes for discourse and meditation to-day. But as a general rule present and passing events are too near to us, and in a state too unfinished, to be susceptible of a cor- rect interpretation. I prefer, therefore to take a new departure to day, and follow another, and, I trust, a more profitable line of thonght. ‘The text is, SAY NOT THOU, WHAT IS THE CAUSE THAT THE FORMER DAYS WERE BETTER THAN THESE? FOR THOU DOST NOT INQUIRE WISELY CONCERNING THIS. Eccles. vii, 10. It is said that King Charles, of Eng- land, once proposed this question to his newly organized Royal Society : “Why is it that a vessel of water will weigh po more with a fish in it than it did before the fish was put in?’ After the learned pundits had puzzled their brains over the problem for an evening, one of them in- nocently inquired whether such was iu- deed the fact. ‘‘Ah!” said the clever king, “that ought to have been the very first inquiry you made. It is not true.” Somewhat in the same way, it may be said that it is not wise to inquire why the former days were better than these. It is not true, and therefore it is unprofitable to trouble ourselves to find out a reason. That the former days were better than these is simply an imagination of the aged, whose dulled and decayed faculties ren- der them iucapable of appreciating the present; or it is the dream of the young, whose knowledge of both the past and the present is vague and superficial. The spirit of discontent in the hearts of men makes all ages seem better than the pres- ent, and all circumstances more desirable than those by which they are surrounded. “Tn trath,” says Lord Macaulay, “men are under a deception similar to that which misleads the traveller in the Arabi- an desert. Beneath the caravan all is dry and bare, but far in advance and far in the rear is the semblance of refreshing waters, and find nothing but sand where an hour before they bad seen a lake. They turn their eyes and see a lake, where, an heur before, they were toiling through the sand. A similar illusion scems to haunt nations through every stage of the long progress from poverty and barbarism to the highest degrees of opulence and ciyil- ization. Butift we resolutely chase the mirage backward, we sball find it recede before us into the regious of fabalous an- tiquity.” This generation of Southbervers is wont to look back upon the good old days before the late war between the States as the Golden age of our Sunny South land. But iv those days adventar- ous spirica- were wont to look back with regret upon the old pioneer days of 1ude ‘abundance, when the bear and the deer haunted the primeval forests, turkeys and pheasants filled the plains aud thiek- ets, aud all the streams abounded in fish. That seemed the perfection of a joyful age then; while, perhaps, the early pio- neers looked back sometimes with regret to happy days spent en the shores of the Emerald Isle, or amid the heather, or in the narrow gleus of Scotland. But it is evi- dent toa careful observer of the times and the seasons, that if- we had all the past ages of the world to select from, we could not choose a period having so mgny appliances of happiness, or facilities for improvemeut as the one which @ wise aud beneficent Providence has allotted to us. Perhaps if we could choose our era one hundred, or five huodred years hence we might be better suited. Perhaps not. It may be that the pendulum of civiliza- tion, for the present, has already swung to its highest point, and is now just ready to descend in its downward curve of vscil- lation, not to rise so high again fora thousand years or more. The Great Ruler of the universe, with whom oue day is asa thousand years, and a thousand years as one day, has put our race to the test at many times, and in different circum- stances, and the uniform resalt hitherto has been temporay progress, and then de- cay. The race has net proved itself ca- pable of sustained advancement and per- manent excellence. With the universal diffusion of knowledge, with the purify- ing power of the Gospel, with the in- dwelling of the Divine Spirit, and with God’s providential care and direction, there is no couceivable limit to the at- tainments men may make. But if this generation should prove recreaut to the trust committed te them; should, through pride and self-sufficiency, forget God and his law, then who knows but all this ex- The pilgrims hasten forward pile already attained may vanish like 16 mists of the morning, and the mouu- ments of heman gevius and skill crumble te the earth, or remain, if at all, like the the relics of the mound-buildere, who came, lived, and departed without leav- ing a chronicle behind tv tell the story of their lives. I trast that it will be profitable tu us, on this Thanksgiving day, in order to sharpen our appreciation of that goodly beritage which a beneficent Providence has bestowed upon us, to look back a short period iuto history, and notice some of the inconvenieuces and evils which our forefathers endured, now happily re- moved from our lot. We need not go back to the age of the crusades, to the period of the Wars of the Roses; nor to the fierce and fiery age of the Plantage- nets or Tudors, We need not explore the périod when even king8 aud nobles coald neither read nor write, aud when learn- ing was so rare aud valuable, that evena murderer was allowed to escape the gal- lows by “benefit of clergy,” that is by proving that he was a “clerk,” by read- ing a page of a book. We need not go back to the age when the English palaces and castles had for floors only the beaten ground, littered with rushes, aud wheu a special officer was needed to examine the King’s straw every evening, su that he might not be eudangered by lying down on a concealed dagger. We need not go back to the period when no such thing as couversion to God, or a change of heart was required, or even thought of as a qualidcation for charch membership, ora holy life expected of av ordinary man. But we have ouly to compare the period of one hundred years ago with the present age, to discover the wondrous improvemeuts that have been wade iu the art of living and of government, in ed- ucation, in travelling, in commerce, in civil liberty, in social and domestic life, and above all iu public morality and re- ligion. 1. There has been a mitigation iu the evils of war, by their iufrequency, their shorter duration, and the greater human- ity exercised towards soldiers and to- wards evemies aud captives. It may be hard for us, just fresh from the terrible ordeal of a four years fratricidal war to ap- preciate the improvement in this respect, Bat it is a fact that since the surrender of the British at Yorktown, ia 1731, the United States have had but about nine years of war, and iu five of those years there was little interference with the or- dinary pursuits of the people. But when we turn to European History, we read of the Hundred Years War—of the Thirty Years War—the terrivle wars of the Spanish succession. Even the Ninetce.th Centary was ushered in with a Twenty five years war, that in turn, and some- times simultaueously, agitated every Eu- ropean nation from the Baltic aud the Uralto the straits of Gibralter. Even America was drawn ivto the vortex, and had three ycars of froutier warfare. This was the war that began with the French Revolution iv 1739, and continued until the Congress of Vienna, in 1315, readjus- ted the Balance of Power, which they fondly dreamed would be perpetual, aud which actually did preserve a measure of peace fur nearly forty years. This war rested like a nightmare upon the bosom of Europe, wasting its wealth, slaughter- iug ite children aud restraining its pro- gress. Many who were unborn at its be- giuning were fighting in the ranks at its close. From lack ef transportation, and from the clumsy natare of the arms of that day, wars could pot be short, sharp and decisive, as in modern times. It was estimated that iu Wellington's Pe- hinsular campaign ovly ove bullet in six hundred ever harmed a Frenchman, aud it required an expenditure of his weight in lead to killan enemy. A half century later, the Germans disabled one French- man by au expenditure of twu hundred and seventy nine balls, and Russian statistics assert that iu their late war they struck down ove Turk fur every sixty-six shots fired. Rifled caunon, repeating ities, itrailleuses, needle guns, and cannon fcieserarinlua & mass of two thousand pounda of iron five miles with uverring precision, seem to predict terrible slangh- ter in the coming age. But the fact is the reverse. Itisthe eld fashion hand to hand fight, that we read of in the Buoks of the Kings, and the Chronicles of Israel that slaugbters whole armies iu a day. The pertection of the implements of slaughter renders war less frequent, and leas prolonged. Itis vot the slaughter of the battle field that is the great evil of war, but the privation, the aickuess, the fatigueiog march, the dreary hospital, and the waste of resources. Ip his six mouths’ campaign against Russia iv 1812 Napoleon lost over halfa million of men. But it was notin the battle of Borodino that they were slaughtered, though one hun- dred thoosand men fell on that bloody field. It was hunger, aud thirst, and ex- posure, and fatigue, that slew the other four handred thonsand. 2. The Nineteenth Century is also characterized by a lengthened average of the duration of human life. This is part- ly owing the decrease of destructive wars bat largely to other causes. Fifty years ago we were taught that thirty three years was the life of a generation of men. Ju the middle of the 13th century in Lon- don, the average of humwau life was twen- q ee _ — ty four years. But iv ] son in every fifty seven di ts Philadelphia the avega ife is furty years, and a forty~ three yeara. The ine life ofa Reueration is ten or fifiess years. One cause of this increase is the discovery of Preventives or remedies for yiralent dis- eases. A londred years age one-tenth of all the deaths in Englaud were caused by small-pex. Now through the discovery of Dr. Jenner, this terrible scourge has been deprived of its fatal power. In fur-, mer times undrained ewamps and Gields, - Severated iutermittent fevers, which de... stroyed m: upon the vitality of the raral population. Bat wise farmers have learned to drain their marshes and thus destroy au enemy more dreadful than the fubled hydra that lurked in the lake of Tagena. The filth ia the streets and dwellings of the cities used to be festering sotrcea-of diseases and death. But draining sewers -have closed these sources of disease. The era of medical science waa yet in the future, at the beginning of this cen- tury, aud did little to remedy the ravages of disease. Depletion and the exhaus- tion of the system was generally the first step in the treatment, and was often soon followed by death. But later years have Witnessed unparalled progress in this noble science. Not ouly have effective remedies fur disease been discovered, and successful methods of adwinistering them beeu devised, but sanitary rnles and reg- ulations have beew patiently studied out, and published to the world, thus reduc- ing or destroying the very causes of dis- ease. Almost every year, and sometimes often in the year, we fiud iv the Lunds of skillful physicians, new aad improved instruments for discovering the nature of diseases, for calculating their virnlehee and power, or for administering in the best way the most approved remedies. To no class is the benefit mure conspicu- ous than zmong the children. The evil sanitary surroundings, which in former days warred against the immature strength of childhood have been improv- ed, thus giving them a fairer chance at life. By all these improvements the chances of liviug a long, comfortable aud useful life have been greatly augmeuted. There has also been an increased ecou- omy of the lives of useful men by the de- crease of violence, and especially by the decay of the barbarous practice of duelling. The reader of history will recollect that many leading men of the past generation indulged in tuis absurd practice, some of them falling victims in the prime of their manhood, Fex, Pitt, Castlereagh, O'Con- nell, Canning, Wellington, Hamilton, Burr, Clay, Randolph, Jackson, and husts of oth- crs well known to fame, once tried each to kill his man. Under the enlightened in- fluence of Prince Albert, in England, and by a healthier moral sentiment everywhere, this relic of barbarism 1s fast disappearing. Soon, we may hope, it will not be beard of even in such places as Leadville, or Tucson, Tombstone, or the ranches nearest the Rio Grande. 3. Still further, we may notice thet new ideas concerning the nature and design of civil government have dawned upon the civilized world within the Jast hundred “During sixty yenrs of the 18th century,” says McKenzie, “Lewis XV—one of the meanest and bascst of human crea- tures—ruled over France. It was the be- licf of this unworthy person that France was his, and that she and her twenty five millions of people were of no value other- wise than as they ministered to his enjoy- ment. No one about him ever, in all bis long life, suggested another view to him. The great nobles went daily to see bim dreased and undressed—regaling him tbe while with the obscene gossip which he loved so well to hear.’ The nobles were as vile and as despotic as he. The peasants were bound to grind their corm at the Scigneur’s mill, to press their grapes in his wine press and to bake their bread in his oven, paying, of course, such toll as be chose to exact. Between king and nobles the people were taxed, crushed and beaten until life wasa burden. Nor was the con- dition of the French people worse than years. that of the rest of Continental Europe, In - fact, if we may credit DeTocqueville, it was better. Every sovereign, whether King, Prince, Elector, Duke, Doge or Count, with slight exceptions, regarded his vassals as his praperty, and treated them with harsh- ness and severity, up to the period of the French Revolution. Then the bugle blast of liberty was sounded in all ears, and the people of Europe n ver forgot it. After despotism had passed over that bloody chasm it never displayed the same vigor again. The price was a terrible one, bat the enfranch'sement of the European peo- ple was worth it all. Iu 1814 the tax -s of England amoauted to an average of $30 fur every man, we- man and child iu the kingdom. At the same time wheat was worth $5.50 a bush- el, and ofher commodities in proportion, while noskilled Jaber earved only $3.00 a week, or 50 cents a day and mechanics earned but $5.00 a week, or 83} cents a day. By comparing this with the taxes of ourday and country, averaging from twa to five dollars for a poor man and his family, with 75 cents aday as the wages of unskilled labor, and two dollars a day for a mechanie, and wheat at 21.50 per bashel, you will dise ver that an Eng lishman siaty-fi.e years ago could eary ouly abouta tilt: part of the foud thas yay lives, and pressed heavily, ou t ; my, 4 '‘ .

But there are sever al ether cheering facts that must be men- tidned in the close of this discourse. 8. The first of these is the modern re- vival of experimental and personal reli- gion. In all ages God has had his faith- ful ones who lived apart from the world But there were times when personal reli- gion appeared to be generally sunk be- heath a mass of formalism, indifference, Moderatism—sometimes of Pelagiauism and socinianism. Sech a period existed a hundred years ago. The life and spirit of the Reformation age, and of Puritan zeud and spirituality had decayed. But throngh all- this country Revivals bleexed the people near the beginning of the cen- tary. Much of this awakening, under God, is to be attributed te the fervor and zeal of the ‘people called Methodists.” The church from which they came eut, in MeKenzie’s days in which our lot has fallen. For all these reasons, as well as many more, we are called upon to-day to rendgey thanks to the Gracious and Sovereign Dirposer of all things.

Auvother special characteristic of this cent y is the revival of the Mission Spirit. 2he last command of the Savior was to go into the world and preach the gospel to every creature.

Soon the Wheels struck a log or stump and hurled the young man against a tree, from which he rebounded, striking his head against the tire of a hind wheel. ile must have been stunned; for he lay where he fell long enough to lose a large quantity of blood. When he recovered, he caught and tied up one of the loose mules, and followed the other to the house. When he arrived there, he walked into the room of ene of his sisters and said: “The mules have killed me at last,” and lay down on a bed. Ile soon became unconscions and remained so until 2U minutes past two that night, when his spirit took its flight. George was twenty-one last Thursday. He was a good, faithful son and had lived a life of usefulness—always sacrificing self-interest to others. He was truthful, honest, sober and upright, a credit to his father and an honor to his Christian mother, who will meet him joyfully on as he nears the golden shore, He was a consistent member of the First Presby- terian church, from which place his obse- quies were couducted. | dle was wounded in tue forehead, and the back of the head--this latter causing ; death—and was severely bruised about | the person.

EARL UIDDEN, Mineralogist and the public in gen- eral are perhaps unaware that system- atic mining for emerals has been go- ing on in Alexander ‘county, North Carolina, for over a year, and their existence over quite an extensive area, has been proven beyond question. Thinking that what the impetus was that started the search fur emeralds in this region would be of interest to the I here give the story, gath- ered as it is from all the people con- public. cerned and by a year’s residence on the spot where the emeralds have been found, Sixteen years ago the site of the mine now being worked was covered with a dense primitive forest. Less than ten years ago this country was, mineralogically, a blank ; nothing was known to exist here having any spe- cial value or interest. Whatever we know of it to-day is due, directly or indirectly, to the earnest field-work done here in the past seven years by Mr. J. Adlai Stephenson, a native of the county, now a well-to-do and re- spected merchant of Statesville, N.C, Under a promise of reward for suc- cess, he engaged the farmers for miles around to search carefully over the soil for minerals, Indian relics, ete., and for several years he enjoyed sur- prising success in thus gathering speci- mens. While rarely doing any per- sonal work himself, he yet had, in the above desultory manner, many per- sons working for him, and in giving his attention to their finds he had his hands full, as the saying is. The The amount and variety of material he gathered in this way was simply astonishing, and his most sanguine expectations were more than realized. Every species brought to him from this new region seemed like a revela- tion. In some manner they were more interesting than anything here- tofore found of their kind in the South. Certain it is that up to this date, and I write from personal knowledge, this region has furnished some of the most remarkable and beautiful speci- mens of quartz, rutile, monazite, spo- dumene, bery] and emerald thus far discovered in the United States. The farmers now say that they lost much valuable time in searching fer “socks,” but as the sequel shows they have been greatly benefited by the in- creased value of their lands as discov- eries were mace. state that from a few localities in the be brought to him. These got to have the name of “green rock, or bolts,” and became the ultimatum of the peo- ple’s searchings. Mr. S. had told them that a dark green beryl would be valuable if clear and perfect; would in fact be the emerald ; and for them to search more carefully than ever to find one. Surely he had informed the people aright and had given them a ra avis to look for. Sufficient it is to say that in a pe- riod of about six years there was found on three plantations in this county, loose in the soil, a number, say ten, of veritable emeralds, none of which, however, were dark colored or trars- parent enough forsuse as gems. All these specimens went into Mr. Ste- county Mr. Stephenson would occa- | sionally procure crystals of beryl, of ,a series of deep ditches in directions the ordinary kind, but now and then a semi-transparent prism of bery] hav- ' angles. ing a decide yrass-green tint would | Was on the spot where at least halfa was obtained in the following manner: A corps of men were engaged to dig that would cut the strata at different The sight chosen for work dozen pale emeralds had been found. | This location was shown to me by the farmer (Mr. J.

Five weeli was ’pent (July-August, 1880) befuFé any sue- cess was met witb, and then, at a depth of eight feet, a “blind vein” bearing very small emeralds was discovered. In this vein, or pocket as it. proved to be luter, and outnumbering the em- eralds fifty to one, was found the new emerald-green mineral which was such a surprise to the scientific world and same purposes as does the gems I sought, and become in all probability the main object of future mining here. phenson’s collection, with the single exception of one very choice crystal obtained at the locality by the late, John T. Humphreys, which crystal ¢s now in the cabinet of Dr. Eddy, of Providence, R. I. Such is the history of the emeralds found in this county béfore the writer commenced mining for them. I must | acknowledge that it was the sight of two pale emerald crystals from this county in Mr. Stephenson’s collection that prompted me to come here and work for them; and further, I owe to him the knowledge concerning the lo- ealities which has enabled me to suc- ceed in my explorations. It must be said of Mr. Stephenson, and greatly to his credit, that his in- terest in minerals is a purely natural one. I cannot understand why work was bot commenced long ago where such favorable signs were so common. That such specimens could have re- ceived only a passing notice fiom col- lectors is really inexplicable. A very natural conclusion would have been that where these pale emeralds were found in the soil, darker and purer ones would be found by mining for them. The locality is situated about thirty- five miles, air-line measure, southeast from the Blue Ridge mountains, six- teen miles N. W. from Statesville The contour of the country is low rolling. The altitude something over a thousand feet. The soils are most- ly red, gravelly clays, of not much fertility. The prevailing rock is gneiss, with more of a felspathic than micaceous nature. The trend of the strata is N. N. W. and S. S. E., with a dip nearly vertical. The gems and crystals occur implanted and not em- bedded in open pockets or veins of very limited extent, that are cross fractures or fissures in the rock. These fissures (lenticular in shape) are usu- ally situated nearly perpendicular. There being no glacial drift here, the soile are necessarily the result of decemposition and disintegfation on the spot. It is therefore an easy task to find the source of minerals found on thesurface. The “frost-drift” the- ory of Prof. Kerr is every where proven in this region. He well says that “to a foreign geologist, entering the South Atlantic States for the first time, a hundred miles or more from the coast, the most striking and novel feature of the geology is the great depth of earth which everywhere mantels and conceals the rocks. This ily discovered to be, for the most part, merely the result of the decompositiun in situ of the exposed edges uf the un- derlying strata. The vertical highly inclined bedding lines of the strata are distinctly traceable by the eye through this superficial earth cov- ering, and are seen to pass by insensi- ble gradations into the undecayed rock beneath.” At this locality the unaltered rock is found at a depth of twenty-six feet and is of unusual hard- ness, especially where it walls the gem-bearing pockets. Thus far the gems have been found in a narrow belt running N. E. and 8. W., and scattered over a distance of three miles. In this belt signs of cross fissures are very abundant and it isa very common thing to find crystals of quartz, rutile, tourmaline, is read- and ect., perfectly preserved, scattered over | this region. the surface. To be Lrief aad to the point, I will! The location of the present mine I refer to the spodumene-emerald now kuown as “Hiddenite.” The reader must pardon this digres- sion from my subject, but the search here is so interwoyen with my discovery of emerald-greeu for emeralds spodumentt that I cannot tell the The two minerals occur intimately asso- story of one without the other, ciated together and while mining for the one the other is constantly feund.{ This “blind vein” (so-ealled, be- cause it had no outerop) yielded very handsomely of the new mineral, but very sparingly of emeralds, and the few found were too small to be useful as gens, though their color was very A tunnel two hundred and mostly through rock, good, sixty feet long, was cut to this vein, and a shaft eight feet square sunk down upon it. At the present writing the vein has been worked down toa depth of thirty- three feet, at which point it has prov- ed its “pocket” nature by showing signs of ‘“pinclring out’—closing to- gether. Thus far pockets have been found within an area of a forty feet square carrying twelve of these emeralds, four of which pockets con- tained “Tiddenite.” All these veins maintained nearly the same character of dip,thickness, length (horizontally), and associations. Oth- er pockets were found that yielded quartz, rutile, monazite and mica crys- tals. covered with finely crystalized dolo- mite, calcite, apatite, rutile, pyrite, quartz and mica. also the Others yet whose walls were Tn one instance a small pocket, that contained two beau- tiful small emeralds, had its walls covered with large crystals of albite (twinned parallel to the basal plane). Another pocket contained only mica and one small pelucid colorless beryl that had both ends terminated with many planes. I mention the above associations so that the reader can learn the diversity in these pockets although they are so near together. In the réck mining, as also in’ the soil, the sign of a vein “coming in” is the presence of small streaks of mass- ive quartz or of mica in a contra di- rection to the strike of the rock, either ef which indications leads to open pockets not many feet off. The gems thus far have been found in the bot- tom of the pockets. Not over nine emeralds have as yet been found at any one time, So far the pockets have been very crumbly obtained only in a detached condition. Miner- alogists have a great treat in store for them when deep rock mining is ac- complished here: then the emeralds, berylsand “Hiddenites” will be found firmly attached to the matrix, [It is the writer’s belief that the latter min- the ter- minal and prismatic planes bralliant, at a depth of—say fifty fect, and that their present rounded and pitted ap- pearnce is due to exferior alteration. ] The largest emerald found here, thus far, was three and one-quarter inches long by three-quarters of an inch in diameter. It was was one of five fine crystals containcd in one pocket. Their color was excellent and they and the crystals eral will be found here with were transparent though somewhat flawed. A peculiar feature pertains to most of the emeralds and beryls from They appear to have heen filed across the prismatic faces. The basal plane is also often pitted which was destined to answer the]- with minute depressed hexagoual py- ramids that lie with their edges par- allel to one another and to the edge of the hexagona! prism, Rarely, though, crystals are found with per- fectly smooth and brilliant faces. The emerald color is often fucused on the surface and fades gradually toa col- orless central core, which feature is of exceeding interest when the cause of color is considered. The emeralds have been found of richer color and less flawed as the mine gets deeper. This region has a great future as a gem-producing district. Mining skill and capital are the only essentials now peéd e to insure success. It may be interesting to note that the entire expense of the last year’s work here has been more than repaid-by the sales of the gems discovered. *See American Journal of Science, vol. Xxi., pages 345-358. tDr. J. Lawrence Smith wis the first to discover its true nature and was pleas- ed to give it the above name.

Neither he nor 1 looked forward to find- ing the mineral of such a beaatifal rich grecn color, a8 was so unexpectedly dene in the vein above mentioned, or of even finding it again. We did not iu fact give it much attention. Emeralds was the only goal head. MISCELLANEOUS. The Georgia Railroads have reduced rates to persons visiting the great Expo- sition to one cent per mile.

John’s river on Friday, the 18th inst., by the crew of the schooner Annie E. Stevens, Captain Tico, while lying at anchor waiting for the tide to come in. He weighed between four hundred and five hundred pounds, and he was six feet in length, two feet six inches in width and one foot six inches in depth; lris fore flippers measured two feet six inches, and his head was eight inches and his neck fourteen inches in length. He was on his back, apparently trying to rid himself of some “suckers” which had adhered to his shell, and as he drifted by the vessel was shot and stunned and eventually captured by a slip noose thrown ever a fore flipper, after being shot six tines more. His like is said never to have been seen in those parts before. He was sent to Jacksonville and turned over to some scientist there. — Items of Interest.

The painful intelligence was received in this city Sunday evening of the sudden death in Greenville, 8. C., his home, of Mr, J. J. Blackwood, a former citizen of y this place. Mr. Blackwood attended church in the morning and returned home. In a short while he was seized with a vi- olent affection of the heart and died quick- ly. He had been a sufferer with heart discase for some time. Col. R. M. Oates, son-in-law of the deceased, and several other gentlemen of the city, went yester- day afternoon to Greenville to escort the remains to this city where they will be interred iu Elmwood cemetery in the fam- ily burial plat. The funeral services will take place this morning at 11 o’clock at the First Presbyterian church.

Publie attention is just now divided between the tedious trial of Guiteau ip the City Hall, and the canvasg.for the speakership, which is waged at half a dozen large hotels. A month ago there was but one opinion relative to the issue of the trial. Everybody thought Guiteau would be hung, and leoked upon the trial only as a decent preliminary to the inev- itavle rope. New, one out of every three you meet, and perhaps half the lawyers, are of opinion that the jury will not agree. It is said that the jury contains more than one crank whose sympathy for the guild will shield Guiteau. Expert testi- mony for the prosecution may convince every juryman of bis responsibility for the crime, and Jadge Porter’s cross-examina- tien of the murderer, eliciting his sharp and connected replies, ought to pursaade them of the inconsistency of bis defense. Guiteau mistakes his infamy for fame; is happy in the conspicuousness that bas been the life-long craving of his abnormal egotism, and I thivk is wholly untroubled by visions of the St. Louis rope. It is perhaps not generally known that Mr. Robert Humphreys of St. Louis has the grim privilege of supplying all the sheriffs of the United States with an article abso- lutely indispensable in the enforcement of the law’s extreme penalty.

Marcy, ex-governer of New Yerk,a member of President Jackson’s cabi- net. ‘A government of the people, for the people and by the people.” This famous expression, which has been quoted oftener perhaps than any oth- er noteworthy sentence ever uttered, was first used by President Lincoln, in his memorable speech at Gettys- burg, November 19, 1863. ‘Plato, thou reasonest well.’ From Addison’s tragedy of ‘Cato.’ The lines showing the connection are as follows : It must be so.

They havecompletely superceded mercuryand bleeding, which was found in very general use in this country fifty years ago. I said thatthe one Was poisonous and the other a murderous treatment. the remedial power of nature had not only to cure the disease, but to eradicate mercurial poisons and supply new streams of blood to exhausted patients. which was too (much for any constitution; that my plan of | treatment was to remove dixease by purifying | the blood with Brandreth’s Pills, for when the blood was thus made pure, the medical force of nature came into full pley, and. unless God willed otherwise, the patient was sure to re- cover. Brandreth’s Pills assist nature in all her efforts. It is nature that cnres disease and not medicine. Every other course of treat- ment only throws great obstacles in the way of the constitution. Lam happy to say that bleed- ing, which I said was always improper, hax been generally abandoned by the medical pro- fession, and that the poisonous qualities of mer- cury have been so far recognized that the use of it has been forbidden in the United States Army, by the Surgeon-General. In the calen- dar for 1881, T publish namerons eases of cures by Brandreth’s Pills, some of them so remark- able as to be little short of miraculous: But they aretrue, and the witnesses can be seen and consulted. If Brandreth’s Pills were used in every family, each box would be a magazine of health and a perfect medicine chest. OBSERVE, that Dtandreth’s Pills, taken on an empty stom- ach, create no nausea, vomiting, or griping. They do good any time, but are most effective and agreeable taken on going to bed, when lit- tle, or better still, no supper has been eaten, 3. BRANDRETH.

Some of thoe:.to whom we are Indebied for the Fine Display at Atagnta. ATLantA, Dee. 7, 1831. Cori capondenes of the Charlotte Observer. . In your article of the-6tls inst., entitled “The New Seath,” in mentionirg the ex- i | hibit of the Richmond é Danvitle Rail- road, seu do Capt. C. C. McPhail too much ‘honor. I am merely the agent threagh whom the Richmond & Danville Railroad Gem pany has accom plished- the resulta which you bave seen and com- .| mented upou—the agent of a system of railroads which has linked its destiny and fate, in large measure, with bands of stee] with the weal or woe of North Caro- lina. J observe-you say ‘every North Caroliniau who visits the Exposition should take off his hat in the presence of Capt. MePhail and Prof. Smith, who have the department in charge, fur the labor and paiaa they have taken in getting to- gether and arranging articles,” &c. I have disposed of Capt. McPhail’s claim for recognitiea and placed the credit for the exhibit, in whieh North Carolina isso conspicicuous, where it properly belongs. In collecting and arranging the exhibit of the Richmond & Dauville company I { have been its sole ageut, alone sesponsi- ble tu its ‘management for whatever of success or failure which may have attend- ed it. Prof. Smith, to whom you tmake refereuce is only one of my paid employes and has the department of the Richmond, & Danville Railroad at the Atlanta Ex- position, or any part of it, as much under his charge as one of your type-setters has the Charlotte Observer under bis charge. I doubt whether any ove of the Richmond & Dauville Railroad Company is aware of the existence of Mr. Smith, except iv so fur as his name appears on my pay roll. He was employed and paid by me to collect material for the Richmond & Danville Railroad exhibit, ina few wes- tern counties, and is also one of my sev- eral paid employes for taking care of the exhibt, attending to visitors, &c. I mere- ly call attention to your article because itmay serve to do injustice te other worthy and public spirited North Caro- linians who have voluntarily and = with- out remuneration rendered me, as agent of the Richmond & Danville Railroad Company, valuable assistance, and have, as I know, no personal interest in the material they have contributed. You give large credit to one of iny employes | whose services are fully paid for in mon- ey, and yon make no mention of men like Prof. Hanna, of your own town, who con- { tribated a large line of minerul specimens with valuable avalysis attached ; J. A. D. Stephenson, of Statesville, who coutribu- ted a large ease of rare aud exquisitely beautiful eryetaline forms, gems, &c.,one of the ornaments of the exhibit; ‘I’. k. Braner, of Salisbary, who bronght a large assortment of representative gold ores, &c., and arranged them; Prof. William Beal, of Murphy, Cherokee county, who made splendid contributions of minerals and woods, his object being to bring be- fore the world the grand material re— sources of his section, and who would receive no compensation fur his valuable services or for the time spent in this work. I make no mention of others who have made valuable contributions because it inay Le said they will derive their meas- ure ef benefit from the opportunity thus afferded for the advertisemeat of their materiale. At the same time I feel under none the less obligations for the aid which they so kindly rendered me. I also feel it is due to myself to correct impression that Prof. Smith has any covucction whatever with the exhibit of the Kich- mond & Danrille Railroad and its system of roads beyond that of my paid employes. Very truly yours, C. CU. McPHAIL, Agent R. & D.R.R. Company, in charge Exhibit. Marriage Bells. ‘The reemy and el¢gant mansion of Mr. W. J. ¥ates was cfowded last vight with a brilliant company assembled to witness the marriage of Dr. I. Wellington Faison of Duplin county, to Miss Sallie 8. Yates, daughter of the genie! host. Though large, the company was mainly composed of the relations of the families of the bride and groom, with a few friends. The mar- riage ceremony wae rendered mere deli- cately interesting from the fact that the lovely and accomplished bride is just convaleseing from quite a serious illness the marriage having heretofore been post- on that account. Dr. Faison is an accomplished and handsome young phy- aician with a large practice in Davie couuty. He haea wide circle of warm friends in Charlotte who witnessed his marriage with great pleasure.

While sorte drillers near farnta, Ont, were boring for oil recently, they were astonished to find that a huge volamne ef gas was escaping from the wal], The gas was accidentally ignited by tle terch of a man twenty-five feet from the well, ac cording to a local paper, and the flames which are described as “vivid and sil- very,” leaped to a height of thirty feet. Every fifteen minutes “by the wateh” there is a grand eruption of water, which instead of putting out the flames “drives them in sheets above the highest trees, and falls in showers for a considerable distance ayound the well.” The scene at night. is a -brilliaut one, and is thus de- acribed by the Sarnia Observer: ‘‘The mixture of the water—which, by the way is said to be strongly impregnated with sulpbur—with the flames preduces effects in color which are dazlivg in their bril- liancy and beauty, various shades of yel- low and purple predominating. The spectacle especially if witnessed at night is indescribably beautiful, and its effect is heightened by a slight dash of weird- ness caused by the unusual color of the flames, and the corresponding reflection which it throws on the foliage of the sur- rounding trees. ‘The birds seem to be paralyzed by the unwonted illumination. All night long, so the drillers say, they skim around the flames, uttering shrill cries ef alarm, and become either eo frightened or so bold that they alight alongside the men, by whom they are frequently caught.” ee ee The “Revised” and the Editor. “Can you tell me, sir, what effect the revised Bible is going to have on the community %” “A salutary effect, I hope,” replied the managing editor. “But has it been received and adopted yet?” “Yes, IT rekoa so. The people will take it as a substitute fur the King James’ edi- tion, and it will soon become popular.” “Now, suppose there was a lawsuit in which some of the witnesses had been sworn on the old Bible, would an oath on the new Bible be binding on the witnesses yet to be examined 7” “1 don’t sce why not,” editor. “Just 80. But take the case of a@ man who committed a marder the day before the new Bible came out, whilé old Bible was in operation ; could he repeut under the new Bible, or must he be hung ander the old edition? In other words, can a Bible operate ex post facto?” “IT should most certainly say yes te all these prepositions.” “Very well. Now suppose a man re- pented a year ago, under the old Bible; bas he got to repent again under the new or does the repeutance merge? Are a man’s rights under the recent edition 1” “I guess it dees,’ says the editor, lay- ing down his pen. “In other words, you esteem the new asa legal substitute for the vld, and would as soon have it; de I understand you eof” “That's about the size of it.” “Then let me sell you a copy bound in Russia leather, gilt edges, aides and vacke, only $2.75 net, er——” Bat he fared forth sadly and suddenly, and the exterior atmosphere absorbed him. responded the Sipe SHows.—There are several “side shows” on the Atlanta Exposi- tion grounds which may well be sty!- ed “much in a little.” Among these is “Spang’s Natural History Rooms of Florida,” comprising a long list of “Monsters of the Deep.’ The great Manitee or Sea Cow, weighing over 2,000 Ibs.; the mammoth hammer- headed shark, measuring 3 feet from eye to eye and 16 feet in length; the man-eater shark; turtles weighing from 500 to 1,000 Ibs.; the largest porpoise ever seen ; a saw fish 18 feet long; the mammeth oyster shell weighing about 250 Ibs, and 500 ali- gators from 6 inches to 16 feet in length ; besides stingarees, clam crack- ers, skates, devil fish, star fish, and reptiles without number, all for 10 cents, In another ten-ceats show are sev- en sisters from the State of New York, chiefly remarkable for their leng jet- black hair, which ranges from 4 to 7 feet in length.

Twenty miles from camp, and night approaching. A yeung home amis- sionary, working for his Master in one of the mining communities of Colora- do, found himself in this situation one day and was beginning to look about him for a desirable place in which to spend the niglit, when, a little way ahead, he descried a rude cabin, Approaching nearer, he saw it was one of the poorest of those rough hab- itations, and much of the “chinking” between the logs had fallen out, reu- dering the place additionally uncom- fortable. “Such a place as that is surely des serted,” said the young minister to himself; “and I am inclined to think I would rather sleep eut of doors to night than inside of that shell, even™ if it should prove to be inhabited by one who would make me welcome.” At that moment the suund of song floated out through the opeviugs be- tween the logs, and our traveler stop- ped his horse to listen to the man’s weak voice singing that dear old home-song—“The Home of the Soul.” “Oh, that home of the soul! in my vision and dreams Ite bright, jasper walle I can see, Till I fancy but dimly the veil intervenes Between that fair city and me.” were the words which reached the ear of the listener outside. “T must see the man who can sing like that in such a place as this,” thought the missionary, riding up to the cabin and alighting from his horse. A feeble “Come in!” came from within, in answer to his knock; and tering, be found himself in the one small room of the cabin, which was almost destitute of furniture. In one corner, a rude bedstead had been constructed of boards and rude pieces of timber, on which seme old bankets were spread ; and on this hard bed lay a man, evidently very near to death. “Dying alone, in this situation, twenty miles from the nearest camp, still his look inte the beyond seemed so clear, so real, that the language of the hymn he feebly sang was indeed the language of the heart,” said the missionary, as he related the incident afterward. “He died that night, and I have never ceased to feel a thrill of thankfulness whenever I think of him, that I was belated that day, and so enabled to be with that man when the end came. Surely that which satisfies a man, when dying in the midst of such surroundings, is not a thing to be lightly rejected.

The brother wiped off his mouth and advanced te the platform, and Brother Gardener continued : “Brudder Perkins, I met you at 8 o’clock in de evevin’ on ‘lecshun night.” “Yes, sah.’ ‘You war’ what de white folks call slewed.’ ‘l’ze mighty sorry, sah.” ‘You were full of glory. You felt dat you had saved the kentry. Your clothes war’ all mud.

A Desperate Young Italian Murders His Young Wife and Mother-in-Law and Shoots Himself. New York, Dee. 9 —This morn- ing Pasquale Toenceto, aged 21 years, an Italian living in. tenement house No. 56, Thompson shot his wife, Catharine, through the head and killed her on the spot. ‘Turning upon his mother-in-law, Maria Val- enta, he shot her-through the head, and next shot himself through the neck. ‘Then, bespattered with the brains of his two victims and drip- pring with blood, he went to Prince street police stalion and gave himself up. The police procared an ambu- lance and sent Maria Valenta, who was still alive but with the bullet in her brain, to St. Vincent’s hospital. Her wounds are mortal. The mur- derer was taken to the hospital, guar- ded by policemen. He has a chance of recovery. His young wile was only 14 years ef age, and her mother 32. The greatest excitement exists over the affair in Italian circles. street, Disgraceful, If True. From the Charlote Observer. In the Davie Times, of December 1, appears the following : “The distillery and fixtures of Dr. J. M. Howard, of this county, was seized by by Deputy Collectors Cald- well and and Stockton on Tuesday ef last week. We learn that the seizure was made because of a set of false keys found en the person of a negro employed-about the still. Dr. How- ard was at the house when the depu- ties took charge, and when he arriv- ed atthe still they were playing cards withthe negro at 25 centsa a game, and under the influence of whiskey.” If this be as we hear it, both of these and all other like collectors should be dealt with severely by their superiors. Just such men as these have caused a me of odium te be heaped upon the inter- nal revenue system and ‘the better class of men whe are employed ji in its service. X. Carried his Case. os A lawyer in Cleveland, Ohio, was defending a very handsome young woman accused of stealing froma large unoccupied dwelling in the night ; and thus he spoke ia-conclu- sion: ‘Gentlemen of the jury; I-have done. When I gaze with enraptured eye on the matchless beauty of this peerless maiden, on whose resple:.- deat charms suspicion never dared to breathe—when I behold-ber radiant in this gtoffons bloom of: luscious leveliness, which angelic sweetness might envy, bnt could ‘not, ec}jpse before which the star on (he brew of the night grews pale, andthe dia- mends of Brazil are dim, and then reflect upon the utter madness and folly of supposing that so wuch, beau- ty and gentleness would expose,itself to the terrors of an einpty building, in the cold, damp, and dead of night, when innocence like hers is hiding itselfamid the snowy pillows—gen- tlemen of the jury, my feelings are too overpowing for expression, and I throw her into your arms for protec- tion against this foul charge, which the outrageous malice of a disappoin- ted scoundrel has invented to blast the fair name of this lovely maiden, whose smile shall be the reward of the verdict which I kuow you , will give! Gentlemen! you may hang the ocean on a grape-vine te dry; Jasso an avalance; pina napkin to the mouth of a volosnion ; skim the clouds from the sky with a teaspoon ; throw salt on the tail ef our noble Ameri- can eagle, whose sleepless eye ever watches over the welfare of the na- tion; paste ‘For Rent’ upon the moon and stars—but never for a single moment delude yourselves with the. idea that this charming girl is guilty of the charges here preferred against her.” The jury acquitted her withvut leaving their seats. —— oe Tramps Caught in a Car. On our way to Atlanta last weck we were aroused from a mid-night nap at Hamlet by quite a commotion in a box-car that was being switched off from our train at that point to a side track. It seems that four tramps had hid themselves in the car at Portsmouth, which was afterwards loched and sealed for point South. When the car reached Ham- let and was about to be left on a side track, these “gentlemen of the road” didn’t like the appearance of things, and began to cafl most lustily for sume one to release them from the car, but no one had authority (or cared) to do su, and so left them to enjoy theie mid-night meditations at their leisure. — Chatham Record. some eee Srock THE CarD3.—We would in be understood as dictating to the De- mocracy of Nerth Carolina in the least, but would suggest the proprie- ty of an early Democratic State Con- vention next year, and the adoption of a platform that will take the starch out of the Radical party’s sails.— Milton Chronicle.

It is A matter for congratulation that the business of the country dias been so prosper- ous during the past year as tu yielo by tax- ation a large surptus of income to.the Goy- ernment. If the revenue laws remain un- changed this surplus must year by year in- crease on account of the reduction of the public debt and its burden ef interest, and because of the rapid increase of our popu- lation. In 1880, just prior to the institution of our internal revenue system, our popula- tion but slightly exceeded thirty milliens; by the census of 1880 it is now found to exceed fifty millions. It is estimated that even if the annual receipts and expenditures should continue as’ at present the entire debt could be paid in ten years. In view, however, of the heavy load ef taxation which our people have already borne, we may well consider whether it is not the part of wisdom to reduce the reve- nucs, even if we delay a little the payment of the debt. It seems to me that the time has arrived when the people may justly demand some relief frem their present onerous burden, and that by due cconomy in the various branches ef the public service this may readily be afforded. I therefore concur with the Secretary in recommending the abolition of all internal revenue taxes, é#¢ept these upon tobacco in its various forms, and upon distilled spirits and fermented liguors; and except also the special tax upon the manufacturers and dealers in such frtici¢s. The “retefition of the latter tax is. deéftable as affording the officers of the Government a praper super- vision of these agticles for the prevention of fraud.” Lagree with the Secretary of the Treasury, thit the Jaw Sposing a stam) tax npoh matches, proprietary articles, pluy- ing cards, checks and dratts may with pro: priety. be repealed, and the Jaw also by which banks and bankers are assessed upon their capital and deposits. Thete seems to be a general sentiment in favor of this course, a In the present condition of our revenue the tax upon deposits is especially unjust. It was never imposed in this country un- ti it wag.demanded by the necessities of} war, ang was never exacted, I believe, in any other country, even in its greatest exi- gencies. Baaks are required to secure their circulation by pledging with the Treasurer of the United States bonds of the General Government. The intefest upon these bonds which at the time yeben the tax was impos- ed was 6-per cent., is now, in most instances ‘Besides, the entire-circulation was originally limited nt law and no in- crease was allowable, ‘When the existing banks had practieally a menopoly of the business there was force in the suggestion, that for the franchise of the favored grantees the Government ‘might very property exact a tax on cireulation, but for years the sys- tem has been free, and the amount of circu- lation regulated by‘the public demand. The retention of this tax has been sug- gested as a means of reimbursing the Goy- ernment for the expense of printing and furnisiing the circulating notes. If the tax should be repealed it would certainly seem proper to require the national banks to pay the amount ef such expense to the Comp- troller of the Currency. : It is perhaps doubtful whether the imme- diate reduction et the rates of taxation up- | on liguors and tobacco is advisable, espe- cially in view of the drain upon the Treasu— ry, which must uttend the payment of ar- rears of pensians., A comparison. how- ever, of the atwount of taxes collected un- der the varying rates of taxation, which have at various times prevailed, sugycsts the intimation that some reduction may pthata due tiene soon ‘be made without material aij ninution oftherevenue. -—_ mes The ta Aictieg inten » ofpur iti ha shhtld be Bade with Ifa Coretit sion is dena @ commission, such as was lately a ved by the Senate and is now recommended by the Secretary of the Treasury, would doubt- less lighten the labors of Con when- ever this subject shall be brought to its consideration.

Everybody wants it, but very few get it, because most people do not know how to select coffee, or it is spoiled in the roasting or making. To obviate these difficulties has been our study. Thurber’s package Ooffees are sclected by an expert who un- derstands the art of blending various fla- vors. They are roasted in the most perfect manner (ft is impossible to roast: well in small quantities), then put in pound pack- ages (in the bean, not ground,) bearing our signature as a guarantee of genuineness, and each package contains the Thurber recipe for making good Uoffec. We pack two kinds, Thurber's “No. 384,” strong and pungent, Thurber’s “No. 41," mild and rich. One or the other will suit every taste. They have the three great points, good quality, honest quan- tity, reasonable price. Ask your Grocer for Thurber’s roasted Coffee in pound pack- ages, ‘No. 34” or ‘‘No. 41."

Representa- tive Jones, of that State, who left the Democratic party in 1876, is most prominently spoken of as the candi- date for Goyernor. He has been acted with the Republicans.

Phe English Aspirant to the Zulu Throne. : A dispatch from South Africa ways that John Dunn is endeavoring to have himself elected King of Zululand in the place of Cetewayo. John Dunn is one! of that class of men atyled “white Zulus,” having lived the greater part of their lives among the Deck natives. Dunn is a somewhat remarkable character. Ie a Scotch doctor. who lived Natal, in the early days. He has jalways been mixed up iu Zulu a ffuirs, has anumber of native wives, and at the time of the breaking out of the war he- tween England and the Zulus his per- ) Sonal following, including his own fami- ily aud his own retainers, numbered aver two thousand geuls, Ho is pleasant | spoken, and speaks passable English, and is intelligens, When Cetewayo came tothe throne Dunn established himself on the main }road frem Natal to the krgal of the King |where he could see and be seen by all men. There he followed the business of trader, cattle raiser, and “oun run- ber, supplying the Zulus with the im- |proved firearms; by which they worked such destruction upon the English sol- diers. He exerted a powerful influence over ‘the King, being his adviser in regard to all outside matters, and it ia often restrained him from rash actions, Atter the war between England avd Cetewayo began, Dunn, with his family and possessions, left Zululand, and when informed by Lord Chelsford that all persons found by him iv Zululand treated as enemies, told the authorities at Natal that he did uot believe that Cetewayo understood the meaning of the ultimatum, the non- said hy aceeptance of which led to the invasion The Zulus are said to be anxious for retest the return of Cetewayo, and th much prefer him to Dunn. Even if Dunn is elected it is doubtful if England would permit him to aseend the throne, if for no other reason because of his trafficking in firearms while holding the position of “‘Na‘al Resident” in Zululand. The Zalus evidently greatly need a ruler. Civil war was raging there at last accounts, and women and children, as well as men, were being mercilessly massacred.—Cincinnati Times-Star. ee The Oldest Man in America, In a proceeding connected with the ap- plication fur an estate in England, some affidavits from Nash county were filed in the Gevernor’s office yesterday, in which it was stated by highly respectable gen- tlemen that one Liberty Dertch, a resi- dent of Nash county, now of remarkable memory, with faculties of unimpaired vigor and excellent general health, was one handred and twenty years of age. If there be any doubting Thomases around Jet them institute further inquiry. Itisa very interesting subject, for it is questioned whether any man has ever obtained such a great age. We wonld be glad to see the evidence establishing the fact in this case collected and pat in permanent form.—News & Obscerer. a ee GRATIFYING FigurEs.—The Jackson ville (Fla.) Union boasts with good rea- sou of the increased lumber export from that port. During the month of Septem. ber last there were 4,684,251 feet of yel- low pine lumber shipped from Jackson- ville, against 2,806,108 feet shipped du- ring the same month last year, an in- crease of 1,878,143 feet. Upto date the present year there have been 48,432,451 feet of lumber shipped from Jackson ville, against ‘35,594,457 feet for the samc time last year, an increase for the pres- ent year over 1880 of 12,837,994 feet. In 1879 the total shipments from Jackson- Ville were 33,978,983. o> Mica Masks. A well-known German manufacturer of mica wares, Herr Raphael of Breslau. now makes mica masks for the face, which are quite transparent, very light, and affected neither by heat nor by acids. They ;afford good protection to all work- men who are liable to be injured by heat, dust or noxious vapors, all workers with fire, metal and glass melters, stone-ma- sons, etc. Ip all kinds of grinding and polishing work the flying fragments re- bound from the arched mica plates of the mask without injuring them. ‘These plates are fixed in a metalic frame, which is well isolated by means of asbestos, so as not to be attacked by heat or acid. These masks allow the turning of the eyesin any direction, and, as against mica spectacles, they afford the advan- tago of protection to the whole face. In certain cases the neck and shoulders may also be guarded by a sheet of cloth im- pregnated with fire-proof material, or by asbestos sheets attached to the wask. ‘The nterval between the mica and the eyes allows of workmen whe have poor eyo- sight wearing spectacles, and of workers With fire or in melting Operations wear- ing colored glass spectacles under the mask without fear of breakage of the glass, mica being such a bad conductor of heat. Where the mask has to be worn long, it is found desirable to add a cavut- choue tube with mouth-piece for adinis- sion of fresh air; the tube passes out to the shoulders, where its funnel-shaped end (sometimes hold a moistened Spouse) is supported. The mask has a sort of cap attached to it tor fixture on the head.

I said thatthe obe Was poisonous and the other a murderous treatinent. the remedial power of nature had not only to cure the disease, but to eradicate merential poisons and supply new streams of ; blood to exhausted patients. which was too fmuch for any constitution; that my plan of | treatment was to remove disease by purifying | the bleod with Brandreth’s Pills, for when the! , | blood was thus made pure, the medical force ; I ; of nature came into full pley, and. unless God | willed otherwise, the patient was sure to re- | . Yt! ee cover. Brandreth’s Pills assist naterein all her efforts. It is nature that cures disease and not medicine. Every other eourse of tread- ment only throws great obstacles in the way of the constitution, Lam happy to say that bleed- ng, which To said was always improper, hae been generally abandoned by the medienl pro- fession, and thatthe poisonous qualities of mer- cury have been so far recognized that the use of it has been forbidden in the United States Army, by the Surgeon-General, In the ealen- dar for 1881, T publish numerous cases of curesy by Brandreth’s Pills, some of tiem so remark 4 able esto be Httle short of mirsculous: Bat they aretrue, and the witnesses can be seen and consulted.

On the frat day of June, of this year, y visitor to Oglethorpe Park, in the city of Atlanta, would have seen an enclosure of about seventy-five acres, consisting of a series of terraces, more or Jess wooded, a jew shella of buildings, long lines of empty stables and coops, stallaand a very fair nice conrae, With the nanal accompaniments of grand, mnaic and judges etanda. Had any one said to anch a visitor: “On the firat jay of next December you will find the apace inside the course occnpied by mag- nidcent buildings, other large atrncturea on the summit of yonder terrace, all filled witt wares and grand exhibita of the mineral, and agricultural of the thonsands of the most elaborate machinery, fine f reat resources Sonthern States, and meet other vialtors, come like vourself to see | . ” thia nu iracle, the person 80 addressed t well have been pardoned for regard ing the xpeaker aa an er thusiastic crank, Yet there was one man in the country who por only aaw all thiain his mind’s eve, bnt waa able to make the vision a real, tangible fact, That man was Hon.

Peck, Chief of Conatrnction. Fach of these gen- tlemen managed his department with the greateat akil! and contribnted essentially to the anccess of Mr. Kimball's plane.

Prominent among them are &. M. Inman, Faq. Treaanrer of the Exposition, a gentleman accustomed to handle great interesta, and nated for his | liberality, and Major R.

The railroad exhibits show that the region they traverse can furnish all those materials that conatitute the bases of man- nfacturing industries, and also all the food products needed to sustain an immense popniation of artisane. Turning from these to the Art and In- dustrial exhibita, the visitor sees articles of practical value, of lucury and of high art, displayed with wonderful taste and akill, make an exhibition unequalled in Ameri- can history, and worthy the careful stady All these departmenta combined of every citizen.

Tue youth of the South, who will have had their eyes opened to the grand rewards that await intelligent labor in their own forests and mountains, will apply them- selves diligently to the task of developirg the resources that lie at their doors. The inspiration: has been given to minds pre- pared to receive and to act upon it. The Exposition has dissipated the mists that hung over this beautiful Southland, and flooded it with a glory b.ighter than that of the sun. And the time will come, in the not distant future, when forest, field and mines, in all this Piedmont region will con. tiibute, each its share, to the support of a great, prospering, intelligent and energetic population. The American Watch Com- pany. _ This is the only establishment engaged in watch manufacturing that has thought enough of the Cotton Exposition to send down a display. Fortunately, however, nobody will be tue loser but themselves, for the Waltham people have done the thing so handsomely thatthey would have obscured competitors into insignificance had they come. A more elaborate display of watehes could not be made than they have here except at the cost of munoto- nous repetitiuns, for it includes everything in the shape of a pocket timepiece, that ingenuity and taste have hitherto combin- ed in introducing to the public. This is the pioneer watch manufactory of America which began in 1855 by turning out only ten watchs a day, which were then almost a drug upon the market, so deep-seated was the popular prejudice in favor of for- eign makes. But in thie, as in many other branches of manufacture, merit slow- ly but surely prevailed in the end, and within the last tew years their watches have been considered equal, if not superior, vo any made in Geneva itself. This has been shown by the result of the sharp con- test at all the world’s fairs since 1875, in | which the Waltbam has come out univer- (wally victorious, As trophies ot their vic- | tories, they have a number of handsome | time, among which are noticeable one of (solid gold, awarded them at Paris, in 1878, “for beauty of finish, durability and yener- al excellence,” and another, scarcely less jelegant, won at the World’s Fair, held in 1879, atSidney, N-w South Waler. While inany so-called watch manufacturers con- fine their operations to making muvemen's \only, the American company makes the /ecomplete watch, both works and case. | Their horse-timers are now recogn'zed by | leading turfmen as the finest and must ac- | curate made in the world, and are fast get- ting into universal use. ‘Their factory is the large-t factory in the world, and is now | making 800 complete watches in a day, | which number will soon be augmented to | suppiy a demand which is growing apace. The Southern people, in view of the fact that they can get as good a Waltham as any other watch, with a larger variety of kinds and styles to. make selections from, will not forget when they go to buy that these were the only watch manufacturers jin the North that came to their cotton jshow, and that, too, with a display as large |and handsome as was shown at Philadel- | phia or Paris, in the face of 4 worid’s Cum- | petition. This company positively declines to sell ‘at retail, but visitors who wish their watch- es, will find them in every first-class jewel- ry store, while on the Exhibition grounda, | aa above stated, only the E. Jaccard Jew- lelry Company will sell thew, and at figures | advantageous to Southern buyers. — Lowis- ville Courier Journal, The Poorest Rooster on Earth.

As Seen at the International Cotton Expeosition--Diamonds and Pretty Women at Atlanta ---How they Affected the Pro- posed Reception of Sherman. Atlanta Coreapndence Cincinnati Commercial. During the past week the Northern visi- tor at the Cotton Exposition has enjoyed a more than favorable opportunity of obeerv- ing at hia Jeisure that fa-cinating element in Southern society immortalized by Mra. Southworth and her cotemporaries, and popularly known as the Southern beauty: Among the thousands of citizens of Geor- via, Alabama, the two Carolinas and sister States represented here in the largely in- creased attendance of the past five days, the Southern beautyhas been presentin no inconsiderable proportion, and wher- ever found she is distinctive among her sex, and {a collectively the reflex of sev- eral types of feminine lovelinesa, You find her as a_ slender brunette, | with classic features, faultless though deli- cate form, and flashing black eyes; or, Jess numerour but fully as attractive, in the entrancing and ever popular blonde, who, while of more robust figure and of lesa delicate out ensemble, is equally graceful and eminently fitted to shine with and in contrast to her dark-eved rival There is another type here which a atran- ger will find prominent among the two, bat which can not properly be classed aa a beauty. That is the blondine, who must be called pretty, but not beautiful ; whose dignified manner, charming presence and graceful carriage, necessarily add to her natural attractions. She is met ina mixed throng in greater percentage than either of the others, and when seen invariably com- mands extensive and respectful comment from the opposite sex. DIAMONDS AN!) PRETTY WOMEN. Just here, to a close observer, there is one very pleasing and striking peculiarity about the Art building which dors not ex- ist. to nearly the same extent at any other point on the grounds, and that is the fact that it isa popular resort for ladies of re- tinement, beauty antl culture. Take the dark-eyed Southern beauty in her native atmosphere, and her intellectual attain- ments and fascinating manners form an appropriate. setting to her prepossessing persmne'. In no placecan her combined qualicics be seen to better advantage than here. She goes through the several build- ings, admires tue exhibits which interest her sex exclusively, gra-ps the intricate acientific problem as it is presented in the mass of cotton and other machinery, and reads in the exhibits of improved agricult- ural instruments the discrepancies and ne- cevsities of the soil culture in this section, butit is in the Art building where she is found in her natural element. Here are features more congenial to her taste and at one point particularly is this mo-t prom. inent: Lapeak of the Diamond and Jew- elry of tue E, Jaccard Jewelry Company, of St. Louis, which attracts more wide spread attention than anyother here. It ie in the main Art building, immediately west of the Arcade and deserves special mention not only because of the popular repntation of the firm, but because at the varied and valuable character of the ex- hibit and its handsome surroundings. In that greets the eye of the visitor is a mas- sive and handsome EBONY AND GOLD PAVILION Draped in curtains of rich material, car- peted, and with heavy plate-glass sides furming, also the outer walla of cousmodi- vus show-cases, Which are artistically up- holatered in silk and satin. This is where the Jaccard Jewelry Company exhibit is located, and if nothing else were to give this information a mammoth iron safe in- side would almost tell of the great treas- ures which it is its duty to hold within ilk grasp. : The most prominent feature of the dis- play consists in the diamonds which it embraces, and here the ladies, true to the instinct of their sex, congregate and appar- ;ently never Weary in Canvassing the many | qualities of the solitaires and other costly jyems. Atal! hours of the day the pavil- lion is thronged with the elite of the gen- tle sex, whose position in socie'y and circumstances make them critical connows- | seurs in this particular branch of the art of 1 female adornment, In passing judgment }in this respect the vixitorr are greatly aa j sisted by the very reputation of the Jaccard Comgny, which having been extablished (in 18@§—more than a half century ago— [has acquired an extensive and valuable | business throughout the South and are | constantly making important sales at the | Expasition, which compels from day to d-y the replenishing of the stock of dia- | monds from the home establishment, A TEN*THOUSAND*DOLLAR PAIR. | | Among the extensive diaplay of dia- |monds isa matched cut pair of fifty-two land one-half carats, valued at $10,000, | which are the largest matched pair ever | brought to this country. When one views them the mind naturally reverts to the crown jewels of England, France and Ras- aia, to ‘hose in the Green Vault of Dresden, | and to the celebrated Kohinoor of India. The latter, you will remember, weiybed | five or six hundred carats in the rough, |} and 132 carats when cul, But while dia- | monds are a apecial feature with the Jac- eard Company, they are also extensive | manufacturers of silverware, of which | there are many most bean'iful, artistic and | modern apecimens on exhibition, The | company has large connections in Europe, by which meana they are enabled to im- | portall of the latest French, English and | Viennese goods, bronzes, clocks, bric-a- | brac, ete. Tne exhibit also embracer cab- | inets of silverware, clock, cuuery, bronzes, | bisque, parian and porcelain ware, vases, | repousse ware, watches, | many other articles in the fine jeweiry jine. | A pair of large Satsuina vases which were recently sold to ex-Governor Bross, of Tili- nois, are greatly admired. They are beau- tifully illustrated in traceries of gold oxides by martial scenes taken from the earliest history of Japan, and ae articles of this portion of the building, the first thing | brateleta, and | vertu are very valuable. The Jaccard Company are to be congratulated on the exhibit made here, and during the earlier days of the Exposition it appeared as thongh the enormous outlay and the heavy draft on their Stock had been made for naught, but under the present improved condition of things the value of their dis- play ia being properly appreciated. While speaking on this subject, it would be well to show what moral influence the Southern woman exerta in her proper sphere, an demonatrated incident to General Sher- man’s visit here on Tuesday. It is a re- markable fact that while the male natives have ceased to bear animosity towards the grim old warrior who left a black souve- nier in Georgia ‘forty miles wide and three hundred long,” the women, on the contrary, will never forget that Sherman burned their homes, and they uniformly refuse to regard him as anything else than an invader and deapoiler. Speaking to some Southern Jadies about Sherman, a few dayn ago, they said they never would forget him, and they would not permit him to be feted here if they could prevent it. “Why,” said one, ‘when he came Svuth before. and was feasted here, there were women at the banquet table who wished every drink he took conld be transformed into poison; and others, while lending their presence as a matter of necessity, hid beneath the guise of politeness, a hatred which boded no good for the destroyer of their homes.” I have found that this sen- timent atill exiats here very largely among the women of Georgia, and if report be correct, it was a potential agency in influ encing a change of programme on Tuesday. A committee of citizens proposed to honor the General of the Army with a banqnet, but current rumor hasit that the members of the committee were informed that it would be distasteful [to some, and that a number of ladies visited a merchant who war on the committee and warned him not to give the banquet or they would with- draw their patronage. I give this as T got it, and one corroborative fact is present in the absence of the banquet. General Sherman came here as a private citizen, and by hia conservative and sensible course did much to allay the feeling against him, and I take it that his next vi-it South, if he comes again, will witness a change in popular sentiment, and he will be received aa hia rank and porition deserve. The Estey Organs in the South. In 1879 the Estey Organ Company opened a house at Atlanta, Ga., as head- quarters for the sale of their instruments in the Southern stata. About one year ago Mr. C. M. Cady took charge of this house, and waa given the entire control of eight Southern states, Since then he has more than doubled the business of the previous year in organs, added an exten- sive piano department, and opened a large export trade in amall musical instruments. They hold the Southern agency for three celebrated makes of pianos, Steinway, Weber and Decker Brothers, and have made expressly for them a piano called firat claws in every respect. In the ‘* Gate City ” pianos they have a trade extending from Virginia to Texas. Their importa from Europe embrace all kinds of musical instruwente, including Italian violin strings wade exprersly for their use, called “ clear grit.” Mr. Cady isa man of many rears’ practical experience in every branch of the muric trade, and we know of no one more competent to handle so large a business They have, during the past year, estab- lished a large number of agents in the different towns and cities, and created a demand for the Estey organe which is al- to their musical inatrnment trade, they keep a relect stock of sheet music, of only aalable pieces at low prices. Their build- ing ia located at the corner of Broad and Alabama streets, and ia thirty feet front by one hundred and twenty-five feet deep, boxed, The wareroomsa are finely fitted jup and well stocked with instruments, Mr. Cady aends daily telegrams to the factory for inatrumentea; in fact, he says he haa no time to write, and dves_ nearly all hia correspondence by wire. During the paat season they have given almost weekly murical entertainments at their warerooms, which were well patronized by the elite of the citv of Atlanta. The entertainments were principally piano and organ recitals, and were atrictiy complimentary and given for the benefit of the lovers of music in the “Gate City.” . Mr. Cady has the able assistance of Mr. Robert B. Toy, superintendent of ayencies and general traveler for the South; Samuel Bradley, salesman, piano and organ depart- ment; Mr. John O'Donnelly, salesman sheet music department ; Mr. C. E. Bost- wick, book-keeper; besides a number of traveling men. The Little World. This wonderful result of patience, in- gennity and mechanical skill, convinues to draw the Jargeat crowds of any exhibition on the grounds. Of the thousands who visit the Exposition daily, very few fail 1o pay a visit to the wonderful Little World in Art hall near thecenter. ‘This piece of mechanizm ia indeed most remarkable—-a multiplicity of automatic figures, a steam- boat in. motion upon a lake and a train of cara with train men, who get on and off at the atatione and siznaling the engineer-— It ia useless to attempt a descript on of what ia to be seen in this attractive room, but the admission fee is only ten centa and the beat thing The Constitution could do is to aay that no man has reen the Ex posi- tion until he goes to the Li'tle World.

The materials used for coloring of inferior teas to improve their looks are the rankeat poi- aon, including Prussian blue, gypsum and indigo. The Kimball House. The Kimball Honse was the beginning of new Atlanta. None but a prophetic mind would have thought of building such a honse in a town or city the size of At- lanta at the time it was bnilt. [t was a bad apecalation for Mr. Kimball, but it was the making of Atlanta. Had this mag- nificent hotel never been built Atlanta would not have been the prosperous city she is to-day. Bunt the enterprise of one man who eaw far enough ahead to riek his fortune in sach a building etimulated oth—- era to greater enterprise and when the house was opened in a little more than six months from the time the ground was bro- ken, the word went out through the whole country that Atlanta had the largest firet- clase hotel in the South, and ever after that Atlanta was known to the traveling public aa the moat enterprising city in the South. The scarcity of good hotele in the Sonth made the Kimball house more conspicu- ona. Commercial men would travel. hundred miles out of the wav to find. Grat-elass hotel in Atlanta, And so itis to-day, one of the best houses in America, and ar it costs no more to atop at the Kim- ball than at second class hotels, it is alwaye full, and ite guests are well provided for. Tf it had not been for this immense ho tel, Atlanta wonld never have had a Cotton- Exposition With only moderate and ore dinary hotel accommodations, the impor- tant question of taking care of visitors would have surmounted al) other advant- ages which Atlanta poasessed, and the thing would have been dropped or the Exposi- tion taken elaewhere. But here war an advantage which settled the question of entertainment, and npon this the location of the Exposition waa determined, The Kimhall hone is kept by Messrs. Seoville & Terry, who are also proprietors of the “Arlington” and the “Norval,” Lynchburg, Wa., and the “Duval” at Jacksonville, Florida. The house ia at present under the able management of L. W. Scoville, E-q., whore urbanitv and obliging disposition, together with his efficiency in the manage- ment of the house, has made him yerson- ally popular with the guests of the houre. And even under the trving circumstances incident toa crowded honse during the past few weeks he has not heen amenable to the elighteat complaint, except, perhaps from a few who are never aatisfied. The roome are comfortably furnished and many of them elegantly. The table is aupplied with the best the market affords, and in prepared in'firat class atyle. The Clerks are gentlemen of the best school, and there ia not aatnck up, diamond pinned, part- hie-hair-in-the-middle clerk in the lot. They are polite and civil, answering qnenr~ tions and attending to their duties as if they were proprietors, and as if they re- garded the guests of the house as their personal friends. The House has heen crowded during the past month, sometimes to overflowing, and during the remainder of this month those wishing to secure rooms shonld do eo by telegraph at least twenty- four hours before they expect to arrive. the “Gate City,” which they guarantee | most beyond theirability to supply. Added | with basement, in which are kept goods | Thomas M. Clarke & Co. Hardware. Atlanta way well be proud of the dis- play of the leading importers and dealers and Merchants in Hardware of that City, | Messrs. Thos. M. Clarke & Co. It is the largest diaplay made by Atlanta Exhibi- tors, and probably the best in any line ip the main building. ‘They have a large apace in the east side of the North wing, and it ia readily seen by all visitors. In the centre of the large apace secured by | this firm, they have an exhibit of saws, | the central piece being a circular saw 100 inches in diameter, the largest raw in the world; around there, on the show-board, are eawa of every description, representing an unbroken reunion, aa it were, of the en- |tire aaw family. There are saws of all shapes and for all purposes, and it would | take a man of more than ordinary intelli- | pence to tell what some of them are used for, There are not lesa than twenty-five or thirty varieties in the collection. Another | board, or frame, diaplays razor-blade edge tools, making a collection quite as varied and intereating as the one jyst mentioned. There are axea, broad-axer, hand-axer, | adzea, hatchets, hoes, etc., all highly pol- lished, berpeaking the moxt careful work- | manship and the highest quality. In front of the tools is an exhibit of | elegantly painted and highly finished Oli- | ver chilled plows, some of whith are made |to show the handiwork of the carver, the lartist and the mechanic, but there are | every-day plows also in the group, auch as are made every day by thourands at the Oliver Chilled Plow Works, at South Bend, | Indiana, and euch as are used by hundreds 1 of thousands of farmers all over the world. | There are several show-carer, One con” | taining carpenters’ and machiniste’ tools of lthe best quality ; another Care exhibits a atock of Mrs. Potts’ improved, patent, lcold handle, square back aad srone. There are “better and finer finished, and hold the | heat longer, than any iron heretofore pro- | duced.” A table contains American fluting | machines, the practical uses of which are demonstrated by a lady in attendance, Back of this ia a pyramid of shelves, upon which the flutera and irons are shown in greater numbers.

One of the moat interesting places on the grounds is the tent in which the Suther- land family give entertainments every half hour. The family consiste of seven sis— ‘ters, all of whom have fine suite of black |hrir, one of them having the longest hu- | man bairin ths» world, being seven feet ip lJength, and another one having the mort labundant hair of any lady in the world. | The other sisters have fine suits, any one lof, which is most wonderful for its beauty, | abundance and length. The sisters are fine | muaiciana and sing songs and choruses |charmingly, and one of them, Naomi, is | the only lady in the world, so far us known, \who has abass voice. This emtertainment ia worth seeing, besides, there are jug- glare, ventriloquista, the fat boy, and other amusements which go to make it “the largest 10-cent show in the world,” aa is claimed by Mr. Crosby, the manager. Ev- ery Visitor who goes to see the ‘‘seven won- ders” sends his friends to see them, because it is a good show. CO P A an »- ~ a | SEnare A Very Important Question . Asked, anda Very Truthful wv Answer Given. 1s the smoking of cigarettes hurtful, as 80 prenonnced by many eminent physi- cians? I will answer first, yes, and why? There are millions of cigarettes being put on the market, with fine and fancy labels, wrappers, boxes, etc., and among them are .@ great many made by irresponsible parties, and sold at low rates, but retailed at the game price as the pure goods. Now such cigarettes are made of the odds and ends and acrapings of cigars and tobacco factories, being cut into fine cut, and adulterated with opium and other in- jarious drugs, which produces that unpleas- ant taste after smoking; finally, if persisted in, will give you sore tongue or mouth, and soon get in the bronchial tubes and lungs, cansing serious, if not fatal trouble. Tobacco—the leader of the world, that is if good goods, neat work, and the very beet of material of every kind will do it. [left the factory, believing what I saw, that there was one brand of cigarettes on the market that was made of pure leaf and flavored only with the heavenly dew, and that wae Blackwell’s Bull Durham. I can truthfully say— They are mild, mellow. sweet and pure— They are flavored only with the heavenly dew ; The »bove we give as the facts in fall, F or other proof look out for the Bull. Cotton as a Domestic Com- modity. Cor. Cincinnatti Commercial .] To the Southern: visitor, especially, at the Exposition, the operation of spooling cotton, the intricate and marvelous ma- Boch cigarettes are not only made of infe- rior and mixed tobaccos, but they are wrapped np in a cheap, vile and poisonous paper, fall of easential oils, etc, and the pasting or sealing the cigarettes is done by the licking of the tongue, as the paste ix put on the paper when cut and allowed to dry ason common envelope. I would al- ways prefer to do my own licking. Such cigarettes, of which there are milliona on the market, I am compelled to aay, in jus- tice to the smokers, are decidedly injuri- ous, and caution the public against them. There are cigarettes on the market which are not hurtful. So far from it they are recommended by our first physi. cians to be used even by the moat delicate invalid—in certain xtages of catarrh, asth ma, sore throat, and as acting as a good digester and mild cathartic. But what are they made of? Only the finest of old, pure, ripe and mellow, leaf tobacco, and that wrapped in the finest imported French rice paper. I have given a good deal of time and atudy to the cigarette busines, and think Iam prepared to speak knowingly on the subject. When on my way from New York some ten days ago, I, by special ‘ invitation, visited Durham, N. C., said to} be the center of the world in smoking to baccos, and I find it justly so. I was kindly taken to the cigarette department of that mammoth amoking establishment of W. T. Blackwell & Co., and I will here say, a courtesy not geuerally extended in sim- jlar establishments, as | have knocked at the doors of some and found them closed, not only to an inapector, but to the public; and, aal found myself in the leading manu- facturing establishment of the world, I gave it a close aud thorough inspection, and saw the whole procesa of making cigarettes— from the old North Carolina leat, through its varied handlings and manipulations, un til it came outa full Hedged and perfect cig- arette.. They work with open dvors, and in- vite the public to see and investigate the entire operations. Now, from what I saw there, and have seen in my travels all over the world, I must say that Blackwell & Co., even if su disposed, could not afford, after millions of dollars in advertising and ex- tending the trade over the whole civilized world, to put poor goods, or an adulterated article in this new brand of Bull Durham cigarettes. In order to give the public, and especially those most interested, the cigarette smokers themselves, as we all should know what we eat, drink and smoke, afi inside view of wnat is going on, I will atart out by saying that Blackwell & Co.’s factory is situated in the golden belt of ‘North Carolina, noted tor the production of the fiuest and sweetest leaf tobacco that grows on the continent, and [say withont contradiction, in the world, and of that leaf only they buy, and to-day holding in their warehouse, more and finer leaf tobac- oo, than any other manutactory in the United States, being over eight million pounds, Of that leat they select the best to work in their noted brand of Bull Dar- ham Long Cut, of which their cigarettes are made, und that alone. No drug, no flavoring, only the pure old North Carolina leaf, and that leaf wrapped in the purest and finest imported rice paper, imported direct by themselves, and every ream of paper before being cut into wrappers, are tirat immersed in a large vat of the strong- est alcohol and allowed to remain forty eight hours, chen taken out and dripped and dried, which process the paper, if any, all the essential oils, etc., etc., etc., also causing it to burn freer.and give not a particle of paper taste in smoking. ‘The paste used in mak- ing the cigarettes—in other words, sealing the wrapper—is made of pure rice flour, and made fresh every two hours to keep it sweet and pure, and it is placed about a teaspoonful on a piece of marble, 4x4 inches, and on it a small stick made ot white wood about as large axa lead pencil, | | would be impossible to do the subject | flat at one end, and the smallest 1 article of the paste is with it applied to the edge of the paper and the finger lightly run uver | it, making it a complete and nice finish, everything™being done in the most aystem- atic, clean and neat way, the entire depart- ment looking like a nice, well-kept parlor. No leaf tobacco is worked in the brand of this cigaretie until two to three years | old, giving it that mild, mellow and sweet flavor so much sought after and so seldom found. HOW FLAVORED. Some twenty-five years ago, all the chewers of good and fine tobacco will well and pleasantly recollect the old and familiar brand of chewing tobacco called the ““Honey Dew,” and the best chew in the world. Can’t get it now—and why? Becau-e the demand calls for different and cheaper goods, and by it common leaf has to be worked, and in order to make it pleasant to the taste—as all common green and new tobaccos are bitter—consequently sugar, mola-see, liquorice etc, had to b+ sub- stituted to give in part that sweet taste popular in the genuine Honey Dev. Now, what was the Honey Dew made of? Why, simply and plainly this: the small but honest old tobacco farmers of North Car- olina: they were not only in those days farmera, but manufacturers alao, as a great many of them put up, as they termed it, their own crops in their rude and simple, “bot honest way and no adulterations. Why the swert davor? it was thie that gave it—not angar, but honey and pure honey from Heaven. They allowed their little crops of tobacco lo remain growing in the field until fully ripe, never cutting it until the crop took what they termed the August dews, to give it the sweet honey flavor «nd taste: and only from those honest farmers originated tbe brand of Honey Dew chewing tobacoo. And that same section—the golden belt of North Carolina—has for the past five years gone back to the raising and ripening of that identical rich, mild, mellow and ripe tobacco; and of that identical tobacco while in Durham, Colonel Blackwell took me to his various warehonxees and showed we millions of pounds, and said to me, the very best selections of this tobacco I put in my new brand of Bull Durham cigarettes and I am determined to myke them what I have made my Bull Durham Granulated chinery need, and the busy and ekillfal operatives at work in the various depart- ments, is a thing which never faile to attract their undivided attention. Passing throngh the main building from west to east, immediately beyond the exhibit of the Siate Departmentat Washington, which is located on a portion of the space origi- nally belonging to Messrs. J. & P. Coats, and kindly donated by them, is the display of the Mesers. Cuats, framed in by the most elegant spool cotton sign in the Ex- position. It is cemposed of 16,000 spool-, of 200 separate colora, embracing the latest ombre and other fancy shades. The frames are richly molded, with plate-glase cover- ings, and the spool-work is of very artistic design and finish. The exhibit covers an area of thirty by sixty feet, and is for- nished, in addition to the machinery, wit raised seats at one extremity for the com- fort of visitora, who can thus enjoy their ease while they are being entertained by the various processes there presented. All of the machines are automatic and labor- saving. The first is the skein spooler, which winds the thread from the hanks on /actly 200 yards to the spool, and is then | ready to repeat the operation. From here }it is taken to the ticketing machine, an ingenious automatic arrangement, proba- | bly the most interesting of all the various |operationa, Thie machine cuts the little circular labels from large sheets and pastes and places them firmly on either end of the spool. The goods are then removed to the packing table, where other opera- tives are at work in full view of the public, making paper boxes, some of them hold- ing full dozens and others single spools, the latter to be given to lady visitors, All of the machines used, which have at other expositions taken the highest medals, are the inventions of Mr. Hezekiah Conant, who is very prominently connected with the American mills of Messrs. J. & P. Coats. At another table two sewing machine operatives are constantly at work, making book-marks of colored satin, which are given as aouvenirs to visitors. An elabo- rate show case stands at one end of the space, and others partly cover the broad countera on either side. Meesrs. J. & P. Coats are the largest thread makers in the world. Their suc- ceasive descendants have been famous on account of the prodict of their great fac- tories at Paisley, Scotland. Within the last ten yeurs they have erected five mills completed in the Centennial year, cost over one million dollars. It contains a Corlisa engine of one thousand — horse- power. Mill number five, now nearly complete, is 500 feet in length, four stories to Jarge bobbins, from which it is taken to | the winding machines, which tranefer ex- ;at Pawtucket, R. I., the fourth mill being | and | Wanamaker & Brown. The exhibit of this enterprising Phila— delpbia firm is one of the best in the line of clothing in Art Hall. A description of the display would not be as interesting to the reader as the following bit of history: THE STORY OF OAK HALL. Oak Hall stands at the south-east curner of Sixth and Market Streets, SU ats a locality rich in historic memories. pon this spot once stood the home of Rober: Morria, the patriotic financier of the Rev olntion ; one block ‘away, in a_house still standing, Jefferson drafted the Declaration of Independence; the shadow of the State House, in which that creat document was executed, falls within a hundred yards; and upon adjoining ground stood the man sion of George Washington, The heroic apirit of the days of the Revolution seemed still to linger about the spot as the inspi- ration of the heads and brains of the young men who founded Oak Hall just as the | conflict of the civil war began in the spring | of 1861. Experienced men looked doubt- fully on the modest little enierprise, and predicted early failure as the reward of Mr. Wanamaker’s pluck. The war times made sad havoc with opinions, political, military, and mercantile, but the theory ol failure put by imputation upon Oak Hall found no reating-place in the mind of its projector. It wasa hard fight for life, against heavy odds, during 1861 and 1862. With the early days of 1863 theskie~ brightened, the already increasing business grew still more rapidly, the stock was augmented in ad- vance of every demand, the community became aware that it was now being served with clothing a8 it never had been before, and thus Oak Hall cea-ed to be an experi- ment, and became a fact. Gradually it absorbed surrounding properties until it reached its present great proportions of six stories, 66 feet front by a depth of 188 feet. and becawe the Largest Retail Clothing Houre. Out of Oak Hill the house of John Wanamaker & Co.,on Chesnut Sireet, was organized in 1868, for the accommodation of buyers on that thoroughfare; and in 1876 the Grand Depot, former'y the Freight D-pot of the Pennsylvania Railroad, was opened, at first as a Clothing House, but it has annexed adjoining properties and increased in facilities, until now itis the Largest Dry Goods and Outfitting Houre in Philadelphia. Its forty-odd depart- ments will dress a ian, woman, or child complete from head to feet, will furnish a house entire, be-ides supplying almost everything that utility or taste can ask. These steres are worth a long journey to visit, and increase their attractiuns con- stantly. An understanding of what the people wili sustain, and a firm devotion to estab- | lished principles, have been the roots of this wonderful growth. The following ideas supply the absolute laws upon which all Oak Hall methods are based: First. The largest etock, equal to any deniand of taste, economy, or ize. Second. Excellence of quality, coml'ned with economy of price. Third. One price only, and that the lowest. Fou: th. No old stock. The upplication of these principles is 80 simple and complete that confidence cannot be abused,—a child can buy upon as favor- able conditions av the ahrewdest man. We understand most thoroughly that lasting succe:s depends upon the confidence of buyers. The business is constantly progressive. There is no pause in our forward move- ment.

The story of a business suc. Eclipse Pumping and Power Mills. A little tothe right of the main entrance, the eye of the visitor is met by a wind-mill. flanked with an elevated cistern. The lofty and symetrical tower on which the milli stands, together with the elegant form and movement of the machine iteelf, make it at once a noticeable exhibit. On closer examination, it proved to be the celebrated “ Eclipse Wind Engine,” of Beloit, Wis- consin, snd was furnishing water for the drinking stand and fountains ef the Art Gallery, besides watering the thirsty mul- titude. The Eclipse millir already known to the public through the acientific and ag- ricultural journals of this and foreign countries as the leading machine of its class. The following facts, however, given by the representative, Mr. Wheeler, will show the remarkable progress of this world-renowned machine : . The Eclipse Pumping and Power Mills were fire! manufactured at Beloit, Wis.. ir 1867. From a_ beginning which was necesaarily of a primitive character, the demand was purely local. When the peculiar adaptability of these mills for raising water and securing cheap power became known, their fame spread rapidly, and in a few years the company counted the leading States of the Union on their shipping roll. These were quickly followed by others, until, at the present time of writing, they are forwarded to every civil- ized country on the globe. The foreign agencies of this company arefound at Paris, Berlin, Vienna, and Moscow and Odessa, Ruesia. Inthe United S:ates and in the North, East and West, principally under the patronage of so reliable a tirm as the Fairbank’s Scale company, their agencies are found in Boston, Baltimore, New York, Cleveland, Indianapolis, Ind., St. Louis | Chicago and San Francisco. The Sonth has been represented from the howe office at Beloit. In connection with | the exhibit which was made at the At lanta Exposition, Mr. Wheeler informed me that it wasthe inten- tion of the company to locate a whole- sale house for the South at Adanta, Ga., anda branch factory at New Orleans, La This compeny have been awarded four gold medals, five silver and three bronze medals at the World’s four leading faire, as well as being the recipient of over 100 premiums and diplomas. Referring to aome recent orders taxen by thix companv, Mr. Wheeler informed me that the C. St. P. and M. R. R. have given a contract to them amounting to $50,000. The whole railroad trade of the company | amounts to hundreds of thousands of dollars annually, and inciudes as customers the leading trunk lines of the United Sates | and the Canadas. Wind power is bound | to have a large field in the South, as the | numerous orders of the company | abundantly show. | Willimantic Spool Cotton. Cor, Louisville Courier-Journal.) The Willimantic was among the first to realize the importance and avail itself of the advantages of the Great Cotton Fair, losing no time in securing for itself the largest and perhaps most prominent space occupied by any other single exhibit. Not | only this, but they were among the tirst on the ground, and have now at actual work, the various pieces of machinery used in making the Willimantic thread. Their display is in itself a complete and perfect thread factory, for the operation ot which they have brought from the home works, a full complement of men and a Jarge number of young ladies—some would say factory girls, but if good manners, ip- telligence and dignified demeanor go tor aught, I have not miscalled themm—every one of whom is able, not Ouly to do her al- lotted work with clock-like precision, but can always, with seeming pleasure, fiud time to tell the curious visitor how it is Get Your Things Checked. Gentlemen and _ ladies will find it bur- densome ‘to carry overcoats, wraps, UM- brellas, valiees and packages with them throngh the building, and they should go to the Public Comfort bnilding, or give their things to boys in uniform on the grounds, taking a check for them and call for them when ready to leave. The par- ties having tbe check-room in charge are thoroughly responsible, and there is no risk in placing valuable ‘articles in their care. : The New York Purchasing Agency Of Mad. Cooley is represented in the Art Hall, by a charming assortment of ladies’ and children’s dresses, patterns and novel- ties. Mm’e. Cooley will make purchases of any articles for personal wear or houre- hold use, giving ladies who reside in the South the advantage of a thorough ac- quaintance with the leading houses of the metropolis, excellent judgment and good taste. She gives the best references, and has given satisfaction to all who have en- trusted their busines: in her hands. Her addres is No. 451 Wset Twenty-Second et New York. Something to Eat. The Exposition company was very for- tanate indeed in securing the aid of Messrs J. L. Jones & Co., of 432 Broadway, New York, in the matter of entertainment.— Messrs. Jones & Co. have charge of the restaurant, bar, and also lunch stand in the main building, and they furnish first-class dinners and lunches at reasonable prices. They have every luxury and the cooking is par excellance. Any one can get ® fine lunch or dinner foy from 20 cents to a dol- larand a half, according to taste and neces- sity. The syatem of ordering is conven- ient and perfect. Every one orders what | he wants and knows what it will cost him. Don’t fail to sample their pumpkin pies. | Warmer’s Cocton Worm-Killer. One of the curiosities on the grounds is a Texas saddle «quipped with a pair of unique bags filled with water. Oo in- quiring what this is tor, you will be in- formed by Prof. Jack Warner, @ regular old brick, that it i to kill the cotton worm. He will then explain to you how he uses poison mixed with the water, and with one hand and a horze with this accoutrement on, he will, in one day, destroy every worm om twenty-five acres of cotton. He is backed by good certificates, and he is in dead earnest. Prof. Warner was the qnartermaster that fed the Libby prisoners during the war, at Richmond, and it is aaid he wara good feeder. He was born in Ohio and raised in Mississippi, and since the war has lived in Texas. Talk with him and he can explain this maehine to perfection. Messau Wood Distilling Co. One of the most interesting exhibits on the grounds, especially to those living in the ‘turpentine belt” is the new and won- derful invention of Wm. Messau, for the distillation of pine wood. A company has been organized with Chae. H. Conner, a prominent manufacturer of Louisville, Ky., as General Manager. The test of this in- expensive apparatus, made under the direction of ecientific men, a few days ago, showed asthe product of one cord of pine wood: 13 gals. turpentine; 143 gals. Pyrolig- neus acid (from which gray acetate of lime is made); 64 gallons of tar and 64 bushels of superior charcoal. This test waa made under the especial supervivion of Ernest Sjostedt, mining engineer, the distinguisned chemist of the Shelby Iron Works, Shelby, Ale.

In fact, there is not another like it.

This enterprising firm are unable, owing to their limited space, to exhibit all the «one hundred and twenty- | five diflerent plows manufactured by them, | but have brought to the Exposition some of their newest implements. Amongst these, attracting great attention, is their Tongueless Walking Cultivator. This Cul- tivator has charmed the planter’s eye by its novel features of running without a tongue and being suited for working any of the steel blades incommon use South. Its very moderate price of sixteen dollars puts it within the reach of every one’s pocket. Their Riding Plow, too, is ahead of all others in the newness of its design. The entirely on the bard ground, and the whole is surmounted by an umbrella, which has at once impressed the farmers with com- fort and made their wives and daughters anxious to exchange the nursery for the tield. Meikle & Co.’s large works, with a capacity of seven hundred Plows a day, are rapidly sending their implements to every townin the South. They have in- stituted one reform which they claim, and jusly too, will be a great source of economy to the consumers, that of the interchange- ability of parte. They have labored con- ecientiously to this end, and this fact that duplicate parts may be had almost any- where for their plows has given thema large trade. . [ Closed.) ANDREW s' PARLOR .

International Cotton Exposition, Atlanta, Ga., 188), CHARLES W. HUBNER. King Cotton, monarch of the Western World Great Solomon in all his glory shone Not half so fine as thou Upon thy throne, In rustic crown and white robe dew-impeari'd Crowns shall be lost an thrones to ruin hurl’d Yet when the mightiest of thy peers are prone, Then shalt thou see thy power still ampier grown Thy conquering fiag in every zoue unfurl'd! All-potent Lord of Toil! Benignant sire Of weal and comfort and prosperity! Here have we built a temple in thy name, Here bring we ‘ncense for thine altar-fire, Here Art and Science tribute pay to thee, Here sings the world the pean of thy fame! The Exposition at Atlanta. C. W. Hubner in Christian Index.) The International Cotton Exposition will close on the last day of the present month. Let us impress this fact upon all who have as yet failed to visit this wonderful and unique display. We urge them to come. A walk through the brilliant avenues of the vast main building, and the numerous annexes and separate State buildings, is not only a source of infinite pleasure, but an invaluable source of practical edu- cation as well. The eye is delighted by the kaleidoscopic beauty of the scene, the mind is impressed with the marvelous ingenuity and genius of the age; the energies of the spirit are in- vigorated by the throb and thrill of modern progress, as embodied in this grand Exposition. We have here a bird’s-eye view of the inventive and productive results of the last quarter of this nineteenth century. The man, woman and child who leaves these grounds will take away impres- sions which will last a lifetime; seed- thoughts will be sown in receptive soil that shall blossom in after years and bring fruit for the benefit of individu- als, communities and States. It is the profound suggestiveness of the scene, as a whole and in its infinite details, the incomparable teaching qualities of this beehive of human industry, skill power and thrift, that we desire to im: press particularly upon the thoughttu! and intelligent. When the astonishment at the mag: nitude of this successful enterprise, which is the first feeling of the visitor, has subsided, the feeling of intense curiosity, the desire to know, to exam- ine, to sip copious draughts from this deep and sparkling fountain of knowl edge, succeeds and becomes the para- mount motive of the visitor. Never before, in the history of our section, has an event occurred so inci- sively pertinent to the needs and aspi- rations of our people; never have they bad an opportunity “to see and be seen,” in the relevant sense of the words, as they now have. What they have done, what others have done, what we are capable of doing, what others are capable of doing, what the South is and may be, what the North already is and will be—these are the pregnant themes which suggest them: selves to the intelligent observer—nay, which force themselves with mighty impact upon the mind for immediate consideration. These are issues of des tiny which we cannot evade; they are imperative questions which must be answered, intelligently, definitely. This Exposition holds within its compass botl: question and answer. Whatever is not answered directly, is suggested in a way that every sensible man will at once compreliend. : 4 3 | plow hangs outside the carriage which runs Besides these weighty, economic, |commercial and industrial reasons, others of minor impor ‘locally and historically valuable Expo- ‘sition.

It is a grand success in every possible | respect, and it deserves to be—beca use it is the crowning of a most memorable epoch.

Thirty year’s experience has firmly rooted Alleock’s Porous Plaster in public estimation. Their wonderful adaptability to the various symtoms of disease is a marvel to medical men of all sehuuls. For nervous persons and luna- tics, oue or more applied to the spine produc- ed sleep when opiates, even hydrute of chloral, had been of Jittle servire. Now, when one can- not sleep, its ia the common practice to apply a Plaster to the back. You scarcely touch the pillow before you are sound asleep. Allcocks Porous Plasters have the curative effect of the Spanish fly blisters, yet make no sore, and never affect the kidneys ; are conveni- eut fur all ages aud conditions, usually only producing a “blush” on theskin, and more cer- tainly curative than liniments or blisters, and without prostration or pain of the latter. This is trne even in Croup, Quinsy, Pleurisy, fang and Throat Affections, and the utility of this sanitary invention has been warmly wel- comed. They are largely sold inevery part of the world, and it is believed that mot less Uian five hundred thousand persons are well, and attending to the duties of life, free trom -pain, whohave an Alleock’s Porous Plaster some- \whereabout them, and who, but for the said plaster, would be prostrate upon a bed of ago- ny. Besides, a peentiar piny, pleasent odor, halo, or atmosphere exhales from them by the warmth of the body, imperceptible to the eve, but which envelops the person in a cloud of thin vaper, through which contagion cannot penetrate. In fact, Allcock’s Plasters supply an atmosphere like that from balsam or pine woode, and no doubt attract ozone. When contagious or infect- cus diseases are uboul, they should be worn on the test or back as preventives. , THE ALLCOCK’S POROUS PLASTER oothes pain, reanimates torpid limbs, seems, in many cases, to revive the powers of life. The great demand proves them to be used as a universal remedy. They are convenient of ap- plication, and safe for all, being incupable,of producing any injurious effects. : Dr. Valentine Mott, Dr. Jolinson, of Hart- ford, and Dr..Myers, of Savannah, have spoken of them in the highest terms. The great Mute said: ‘They were all that could be ho fot in a plaster—simple, cleanly and adhesive; perfect as artificial supporters of the museles ; and for pains, because of their counter-irritant qualities, usually at once giving ease.’ Loeal weakness of the back, breast and side, alwayn benefited, thus curing Juabago in a few hoarr, sometimes ina few minutes. . : In Serious heart and chest affections their use causes an absorption or evaporation of wa- ter, by which dropsy of the beartand hydro- thorax have undoubtedly been cured. They appear to have a pecaliar effect upon the nervous, allaying irritability while supply - ing warmth. They seem to acemulate elec- tricity, and aid the circulation of the blood through the part where applied, by which healthy actions are induced. The Porous Plasters are flexible, and fonnd of great help to those who have weak back» or pains in the side. Especially are they val- nable to those who have neglected colds. The+ are often preventiyes of consumption; nav, they are believed to have loosened the graap of this terrible affliction, and had been mainly instramental in effecting a cure. In variable ilimates they shonld be worn on the breast, or cetween the shoulders, or over the kidneys, by bhose who are snbject to take cold easily. This simple plan -will soon produce constitutional vigor that will enable one to resist extraordi- nary changes of temperature. Experience has proved the Porous Plaster to be a blessing i the consumptively inclined, invariably produ - ing the most remarkable abatement of 1) worst symptoms.
