BY M. ELLA BROWN, NEW MARKET, ALA. When the gorgeous tints of sunset Have passed from the sky away, And the day is changing slowly Into the twilight soft and gray ; When the geutle breezes of evening, With kisses soft and light, Woo from the dewy roses, lneense for the wiugs of night, My ,heart repeats, with » sad refrain, **Days that are gone, pleasure and pain. Loved days of happy childhood ! O, fair and cloudless morning! When days of joy and pleasure, With y tints were dawning, No thought of cloaded evening When flowers would cease to bloom, When clouds ef deepest sorrow Would shroud me in their glopm. No thought of the dark to-morrow, when night would follow day— When Seylla and Charybdis, their pres- ence would betray. But ning! the clotids too quickly Obseured my future way. Days, bright as the clouds at sunset, Like them soon turned to gray. | And castles, grand and lofty, | Of fortune, tame and treasure Disappeared ; while anguish and woe | Usurped the throve of pleasure / And {| found, when no joy with sorrow | blends, You way bid farewell to holiday friends. | | I crifted across the wild waters, | Aloe ow'the oceau of time ; And Vife was dark avd dreary— | It had lost its rhythm and rhyme. | But I looked to God in the darkness, | To the author and preserver of life. | He still the fierce heart struggle, | And Iutled the restless strife. | So, in the deepening twilight, rest to my | heart ia given ; For I look not for joy on earth, buc be- | youd to the gate of heaven. _- —— The Children we Keep. | The children kept coming one by one, | Till the boys were five and the girls were three, And the big brown house was alive with fun | From the basement floor to the old roof tree. | Like garden flowers the little ones grew, | Nurtured and trained with the tender- est care, | Warmed by love's sunshine, bathed in its | dew, They bloomed into beanty, Hke roses rare. | | But one of the boys graw weary one day, | And leaning his head on his mother’s | breast, ' Tle said ‘lam tired and cannot phiy: your knee Let me sit a while on and rest,” She cradled him close in her fond em- brace ; She hushed him to sleep with het sweetest song, And rapturous love still lighted his’ face When his spirit had joined the heaven ly throng. Then the eldest girl with her thoughtful eyes, Who stood where “the rook and the river meet,” Stole softly away into paradise Ere “the river” had reached her slender feet, While the father’s eyes on the grave are beut, The mother looked upward beyond tho skies ; “Our treasures,” she whispered were ouly lent, Our darlings were angels in carth’s dis- guise.” The years flew by and the ehildren be- gan With longing outside ; And as each in his turn beeame a man, The boys proudly went from the father’s side, The girls were women so gentle and fair, That lovers were speedy to win ; And with orange blossoms in braided hair, The old home was left new homes to begin. to think of the world So, one by one the children have gone They boys were tive and the girls were three ; And the big brown bouse is gloomy and lone, With but two old folks for its compa- ny. They talk to each other about the past, As they sit together at eventide, And say, “All the children we keep at last Are the boy and girl who in childhood died.” —— = — a : Sensible Advice. , There is nothing tike their own home for married people, even if the wife shall have to cook and sweep the tloor and clean the windows. If she is a healthy girl the exercise will do her good —and no young man who has to labor for his living should marry a girl that is not healthy, strong and willing to do her own work while they are tyo poor to hire a servant. This thing of marrying a girl that’ you have to hire another to take care of is not a wise thing for a poor young man to do. He should look out for a girl that is broad shouldered, strong in muscle, bav- ing of course other virtues. The ideal girl, the consumptive, tight-laced, party- going, piano-playing, French-talking, fashionable girl, can be no proper wife for him. This language the girls may think avkind, but itis not. It is better for girls that are not fitted to be a poor man’s wife to remain with their parents than become such. It will be better fer their lovers too, and better for society, } | | ‘yreat Minister of to-day. = — = Mr. Bright on America. Good Reading for Intelligent Taz- Payers. From the London Times’ Report of bis Ad- dress at Birmingham, In our time the very gentlemen who were opposed to us told the peo- ple that if we allowed the untaxed corn of foreign countries to come here our people would be thrown ont of em- ployment, land would go to waste, the laborer would be worse paid than he was before. Now, in the United States the very same argument is used. The protection party in the United States says to the people, “What will become of you if you allow the man- ufuctures produced by the pauper la- bor of England to come into the United States? What will become of your labor and what will become of your wages?” And so they say exactly what our countrymen said forty years ago, only talking of pauper labor, I think, has for the most part vanished, and if wages have doubled during the last forty years, and evérything upon which wages are expended is reduced, what can be more monstrous than to speak of the pauper labor of England? Perhaps, though I am speaking here in this vast assembly of my own countrymen, I may be permitted to address a word to the working classes of the United States of America. * * Well, I will say this to the working mcn and artisans of the United States, that centuries of leyislation in’ this couutry bave not done so much, have not conferred sv great benefits upon the labor gf England as have been conferred by that great Minister of foity years ago—Sir Robert Peel— [cheers]—and by Mr. Gladstone, the r { Loud cheers.} Will you permit me to dwell tora sentenee or two upon a question, as it affects the United States, in which we, and they, and all the world are greatly interested? I be- lieve that the question in the United States as between a high protective taritffiand a merely revenue tariff is nearing its solution, (Elear.] Opin- ion Is growing ; facts—cconomie facts the a of high tariffs, the war of —which are irresistable, are coming to the frout and are offering them- | selves tu the consideration of statées- men there, and of every intelligent man in that great Republie. There is an extraordinary condition of things which no other country in any age of the world has ever experi- enced, or even dreamed of. There is an actual surplus of revepnue of £30,- 000,000. Why our Chancellor of the Exchequor potters about with £1,- 000,000 or £2,000,000. Ile puts a penny on the income tax one day, and | another day takes it off again; one| day he gives a quarter of a million to | the country gentlemen to help their repair their reads, and then disco. ers that be cannot find the money, and does not do it. [Laughter.], Chancellor of the exchequer of the} United Stages, monarch apparently of all he surveys, deals with a sum, the magnitude of which we caanot meas- ure and cannot conceive, but a lump sum -of £30,000,000, Now, this £30,000,000 is fata! to the high pro- tection party. ‘The Government does not know what to do with it; it must either throw it away or spend it in something foolish and unnecessary, or else it must refuse to receive it by re- dneing the duties. * * * Now, when that question comes to be dis- cussed in the great forum of a nation of 50,000,000 people what must be the result? A very intelligent mem- ber of Parliament told) me two or three years ago—J am not sure I ever quoted his opiaion before, but it is worth hearing—I think, as he said that his Liberal opinions had been greatly strengthened by what he had observed in the United States, [ Hear, hear.] He said, “If you note what they do, a great many of them talk wildly and fuolishly, but,” he said, “they always act very wisely.” [Laughter and cheers.] Well, two years hence, I believe, there will be a good deal of talk, aud perhaps a gyod deal of it'wild and foolish, but when that people are brought to the issue whether, having struck off the negro, they are to leave the fetters of protection upon the industry of all their countrymen, I believe they will do before jong what we have done, (cheers,) and will declare it to be the inalienable right of every American as it is the inalienable right of every Englishman to spend his money in the cheapest market in the world, (Loud cheer.) * * * Now, what [ want to suggest to yeu is this, that if it should coine, as I believe it will come, that the United States will go down to a sensible revenue tariff, whatever that may be—I do not point the sum or the amount; I mean a tariff which will permit large free- dom of trale with all the nations of the world—and then, if England and America, growing rapidly to 100,- 000,000, take this course, what will be the effect upon the other nations of the globe? * * * -May I ask you what at this moment are the two great curs of Europe. ‘The one is SALISBURY.

The one is burdensome—in fact both are burdensome at all times, and armies are at times more than bardensome when they are employed in destruc- tion and slanghter. destroy the tariffs of would destroy the pretense you Europe. (Hear, bear.) Oooo Fruits as Food and Medicine. BY JNO. STAINBACK WILSON, M. D. Now that the frait season will soon be here, it will doubttess be interest- ing and highly -usefulte our readers to learn oe of the nutriveness, digestibility, wh , medicin- al action, and proper use of the fruits and vegetables with which God has so abundantly blessed our earth. But while they are blessings, they, like many other blessings, have been con- verted into curses through the igno- rance and perversity of mankind, Vet the fruit kiogdum affords an almost endless variety of deliéious and whole- some food, and, in many cases, the best of medicines, when properly used. Dr. Paris truly says: “Were we to form an opinion of their value from their abuse, we should certainly be rather disposed te class them ander | the head of poisons than of aliments.” Now let us inquire,why this is so. Is it hecause most fruits are unwhole- soe in themselves? or is it because they are improperly used? Evideat- ly the latter is the true reason, A be- neficent Providence never intended to afflict, but to bless, the human fami- ly by giving them a bountiful supply of fruit pleasant to the eye and sweet to the taste. What, then, is the trou- ble? How comes it that such bless- ings are perverted till they may be compared with the “Fruit of that forbidden tree, Whose mortal taste brought Death into our world, And all our woe” f The great error in the use of fruits consists in crowding the stomach with them when it is already full; in eat- ing them at all times between meals when there is no natural demand nor desire for them. When taken along with food, as food, in muderation, or as a desert, when the stomach is not over full, they are highly conducive to health; and, as the writer quoted above very truly says, “they appear to be providentially sent at a season when the body requires that cooling and antiseptic aliment which they are so well calculated to afford.” The correct rule for the use of fruits is to use them moderately between meals, and at meals, as a part of the meal, or as a dessert, when the stomach is not over.oaded with other food. Though desserts are, as a general thing, ob- jectionable, because taken when the stomach is already full, fruits are much more wholesome, when taken in this way, than the pastries, cakes, etc., generally used as desserts. Let us now briefly pass in review the different kinds of fruit, consider- ing them in relation to nutriveness, digestibility, etc. Of all the fruits with which we are blessed, the peach is the most deli- cious and digestible. There is noth- ing more palatable, wholesome and medicinal than good, ripe peaches. — They should be ripe, but not over- ripe and half rotten; and of this kind they may make a part of either meal, or be eaten between meals; but it is Letter to make them a part of the reg- ular meals. It is a mistaken idea that no fruits should be eaten at! breakfast, or before breakfst. It would be far better if our people would eat less bacon and grease at breakfast, and more fruit. In the inorning, there is an acrid state of the secretions, and nothing is so well cal- culated to correct this as cooling sub- acid fruits, such as apples, peaches, etc. Still, most of us have been taught that eating fruit before breakfast is highly’ dangerous. How the idea originated I know not; but it is cer- tainly a great error, contrary both to reason and facts. Plums are less digestible than peach- es, on account uf their pulp; and all pulpy stone fruits are more or less in- digestible, in proportion to the quan- tity of this pulp, which is likely to cause fermentation, resulting in diar- rhea. This is a frequent trouble in children, who often eat them half ripe, and who frequently swallow them-— pulp, seeds and all. The juice alone should be taken ibto the stomach, and this is wholesome. The apple is one of the best of fruits. Baked or stewed apples will general- ly agree with the most delicate stom- ach, und are an excellent medicine in many cases of sickness. Green or half-ripe apples, stewed and sweeten- , are pleasant to the taste, nourish- ing, cooling and laxative, being far preferable, in many cases, to the abominable doses of salts and oi! usu- ally given in fevers and other diseas- es. Raw apples, and dried apples If you were to the maintenance of the great armies of stewed are better for constipation than | ae pills, . pges are very acceptable to most stomachs, having all the advan of the acid all to; but the jnice alone should be taken, rejecting the Palp. e same may be said of lemons, megranates, and all that class.— monade is the best drink in fevers; better than syrup of squills and ether nauseous drugs, in many cases of < omatoes act on the liver and bow- els, and are mach more pleasant and safe than blue mass and “liver regu- lators.” The juice should be used alone, rejecting the skins. The small-seeded fruits, such as blackerries, figs, raspberries, straw- ae: may be classed among t t foods and medicines. mm if a is nutricious, the is cooling and purifying, and the seeds are laxative. Wo ia be mach the gainer if we would look more to our gardens and orchards for our medicines, and less to our drug stores. To cure a fever or act on the kidneys, no febri or diuretic is superior to watermelons, which may, with very few exceptions, be taken iv sickness and in health, in almost un- limited quanties, not only withqut iu- jury, but-with positive benefit. Bat in using them, the water or juice tid be taken, excluding the pulp ; mat ripe, melous should be f aet over-ripe and stale. Io another article I may have some- thing to say of peas, beans, nuts, cab- bages, collards, ete. ener aa oe A Brave Youne Man.—At Cor. ney Island, Wednesday, a little daughter of Henry Benedict, of Phil- adelphia, whilst playing on the beach, was strack by a li i wave and car- ried off her feet. The father and an- other daughter, who were ina car- riage, planged into the water to save the child, but in an instant all their lives were in-perit; At this juncture Charles H. Billars, aged 19 years, a Newark bookkeeper, plunged into the water and reached the girls, who had floated sotne distance. He swam with them until he reached a fuoting on the sand, and dragged them be- yond the breakers. Billars dashed in again and suceeeded in dragging the father to land, and then he fell unconscious. Several persons arrived in time to lift the form of the gallant lad and rub him to consciousness. Billars modestly refused to accept a money compensation, when Mr. Ben- edict pressed upon him a superb gol repeater, which he took from his pocket, with a gold chain and seals | attached, and also a diamond ring of} considerable value. TSE oa HELENA, Mownt., June 27.—At 3 o’clock Saturday morning while the coach from Deer Lodge for Helena was crossing the main ridge of the . Rocky Mountains, 18 miles west of ‘this city, two men with hankerchicfs tied across the lower part of their faces, stepped from the bushes and or- -ed the driver to halt. John McCor- | mick, a post-trader at Fort Missoula, , was on the box with the driver and drawing a six-shooter quicky opeued fire on the highwaymen. One was | badly burt and crawled back into the bush. The other returned McCor- mick’s fire and seriously wonnded one of the horses. The other team took fright and ran and was soon out of the range of the robbers. Three oth- er passengers were on board but were unharmed. The treasure box was on the coach following the one attacked. ss aap ; | Curtna CLrover.—In curing clo- ver the sun is only necessary to wilt it after cutting. When this is well done, the clover should be put in cocks, small at the base, but as high as they can well be made. The cocks may be tramped some in making. In |g day or two they become hot within and must be epened out, but not un- til all dew and rgin has dried off. Take the cock down in flakes without shaking to pieces, and expose to the sun. After being thus exposed for ‘an hour or two, the clover can be re-} moved to the stack or mow. Each ‘layer in the stack should havea light sprinkling of salt. +o —__—_—_ The Philadelphia medical ghoul, Hathaway, M. D, was in the habit of feeding dogs on dead badies. His wife says: “Large and ferocious hounds were in the cellar, and you could hear them gnawing and tearing the tender flesh from the little bones. The brutes were allowed to feast on more than one human body, and they seemed to rclish the awful meal.” This beats the Tewksbury tanning. — Wil. Star.

They are not labor saving. They are not costly to buy —but they are costly to work. They are a load for our farmers to earry be- cause they are ineffective and do not fal- ly meet tho requirements of our situation We have made some figures that illus- tryte the difference between the South and the other sections of the Union in this matter. ; In speaking of hands we mean hands over sixteen years of age. Tothe hand the average value of agricultural imple- ments in North Carolina is $20, Georgia $15, Mississippi $15, South Carolina $12 and Alabama $12. That gives an idea of how the matter stands at the South. The and $20. At the North and Weat a different pic- ture is presented. In Pennsylvania the average value of agricultural tools to the hand is $125; in New Jersey $125; Min- nesota, Iowa and California $100; liv- vis and Kansas $80; Connecticut and Ohio $75. ‘The difference is evident. Those who have the Lest tools can do the best work. How can workmen who have tools costing but $12 compete with others whose tools cost $1251 Do not the lat- ter have every advantage? Asa conze- quence we find the latter being better equipped at the North is more profitable than at the South. The hands produce more and they are worth more. Let our progressive farmers think over these facts and put the ball in motion. _ a While a Cincinnati wife whipper was plying his vocation the other evening his long suffering victim retatiated with a brick, and her legal supporter is now the object of much couceriy in the City Hos- pital.

In truth there is today a more cordial fecling in the North toward the Southern people, and a heartier sympathy with the efforts of the latter to develop their pros- perity and well-being, than there has been at any time during the last 40 or 50 years. A party of six gentlemen and five la- dies are to leave Washington city this week fora tour in the Virginia moun- tains.

When Men Did Not Take Vacation, The Springficld Republican says: The need of rest in the abstract is not a deba- table snbject, but it is not until compar- atively recently that the higher economy of vacations has come to be felt.

Farmer: It is estimated from careful experiments that about one halt of the dry matter in food consumed by animals pass into the manure, and that if the liqaid manure is all saved and add- ed to it the value is nearly doubled. Or- dinary barnyard manure has about four times the weight of half the dry matter of the feed used, and by this can be es- timated the amount prodyced from each animal on the faym. The richer the feed the better the mannre, so that there is more than one way in which high feed - ing pays. The solid portion of manure contains organic matter, phosphoric acid and lime; while the liquid portion con- tains nearly all the nitrogen and potash. To make a perfect fertilizer all must be saved. —_-—— The Seott law in Ohio, which has just been declared constitutional, levies a tax of $200 on all saloons where whisky, wine and beer are sold and a tax of $1U0 on sa- loon keepers are left exposed to all the operations of the stringent liquor laws besides. This tax does not mean in any sense x recognition of the liquor trafic. The Demoerfts are in favor of a gradua- ted license law as the best means of reg- ulating and controlling the liqnor traffic, and in this they have justice and commou seuse on theit side, backed by the exper- ience of mankind.

The stopes during the month have yielded ore of an excellent quality. The amount of gold forward- ed to Philadelphia to its owner's during the months of March, April and May, was | $7,700 41. The yield for the month of June is estimated at $2,500. The aver- age quantity of ores worked is about 90 fous per month; the menthly expenses ng abont $1,500. All of the ores tréated at this mine is by the Mears chlorination process. THE TUCKER MINE.

Astonishing Rapidity and Excellence in Threshing and Cleaning Small Grain. Sauissuny, N. C., duly 2, 1883. We, the andersigned citizens of Salis- bury und Rowan coanty, take pleasare in stating for the jnfurmation and benefit of all persons having grain to thresh, that on Thursday list, at the barn of Mr. Geo, Mowery in this town, we witnessed with wonder and delight the work done by Boyden, Lackey & Co.’s great Birdsall Steam ‘Thresher aud Straw Stacker. It delivered wheat, (which was very wet), well cleaned, at au average rate of more than two bushels per minute, and oats at about tive bashels per minute—indeed, the latter faster than two men could meas- ure them, The fact is, the capacity of this great thresher is ouly limited by the quantity of grain fed to it, and there is no doubt that with geod grain, in fair condition and properly: fed, this machine will dehver wheat at the rate of 180 bash- els qud oats, any where, from 250 to 300 bushels per hour. Another featare which greatly pleased us was the fact that po grain was left in the straw, and none wasted at the tail of the machine. In ad, dition ‘to this, the straw-stacker saves the furmers the expense of three or four hands and the engine that of feeding six or eight head of horses for several days, wheu the crop is of considerable size, a8 compared with any horse power machines we have ever seen.

It was recently re- solved. to arrest at the same moment all offenders on the stock exchanges at Osa- ka, Yokohama and Kobe, as well as on the rice exchanges of Tokoi, Otsu and other important commercial centres. The police inapeetors reeeived their orders ouly on the morning of the day fixed, aud strong detachments of constables—all wearing various diaguishea—then pro- ceeded to the vicinity of the exchanges and mingled with the crowd so as to avoid observation. A few minutes after eleven all was iu readiness. Six detec- tives stationed inside sounded their whis- tles, and before the amazed speculators realized what was the matter, the ex- changes were in the occupation of the police, the doors locked and the prisoners secured. All the books, records and pa- pers were then taken posession of, and the whole “hanl” was removed in beats to the central police station. It is stated that the offense with which these men are charged is speeulating in “margins.” Over 700 delinquents were pat fn prison. - -_- Three handred aud seventy feet is now the height of the munument in Washing- ton city —a rise of thirty feet this season.

Ste has played with her usual vivacity upon the stage, but she has been surrowful, al- wost morose, off it for a long time. A prowivent manager said yester- day: “About ten years agu Lotta fell head over ears in love with a young Philadelphian of excellent family, He loved her in equal passion. His parents, however, disdained the little vetiess on aecount of her profession, and partly ou account of the disrey+ utabie old man, Crabtree, who called himself her father; but they were devoted to each other. The wedding day was appointed. She reposed in him the fullest coofi- dence. But one night he disappeared with $13,000 of her money. Seureli was made, and it was found that he bad lost tin a gambling den. It was a cruel blow to poor Lotta, His parents reimbursed the Jitule girl, bat it wan’t the mouey she wantel. No- body could give her back ber fuith in mankind, Bye and lye the Puiladelphian suddenly died. ve heard he called for a farewell kiss of Lotta on his deathbed, but she never knew it. Whenever she goes to Philadelphia she spends one day visiting his grave, heavily veiled, covering the grave with flowers and subbing to herself until the sky darkens, and she goes bck to the theatre. ‘That is) the story of Lotta’s unhappiness, and you will agree it’s sad, not to say ro- mantic. {is run into moids direct from furnaces to complete the transfurmation front may at any time be known by cappings. Bees can raise queens from provided that drones are abroad tu mate with the young queens. Should this occur when no drones are abvut all their efforts would be in vain, as the eggs deposited by such a queen would produce none but drones; even the eggs laid in worker cells woald produce minature drones, and the hive go to ruin. Although the queen is much larger and more fully devel— oped thau the worker, she arrives at full maturity in five days less time and she hatches ont in about eight days after being sealed in. The dose of royal jelly which she receives is said to hasten on the transformation scene. The queen lives five years, bat the workers’ life in summer does not exceed two montlis, but the bees hatched out iu autumn live till the following spring. Drones are to be found in May, but are driven out of the hive before theend of the August, and their nervous nature prevents them returning to the hive, hevee they die at once. As we advance in the practice of bee-keeping, we must avail ourselves of the inventions of modern science, such as -bar frame hives and comb foundation, as mueh valuable time is saved by their em- ployment.—J. Trynor, in the Farmer’s (Irish) Gazette, Slag. Considerable progress has of late been made in the utilization of ordi- nary furnace slag, aud probably other uses will be found for it. In the north of Kogland and about Leeds it is being employed as bricks and slabs for building purposes, and as silicate cottou for covering steam boil- ers, pipes, cylinders and fuel econo- mizers. Mr. Binyon, of Manchester, produces it in the latter state, and is understood to have a large sale fur it. Siag can be made of a snowy whiteness and of the must delicate fiber, is perfectly incombustible, with great non-conducting and indestruet- ible qualities, Phe fine woolly fiber is produced by steam acting on the stream of the slag in its molten state iu a special chamber to which the fleecy particles adhere. The slag wool is used as a protection against fre, as well us for the filtering of chewieals, for which it is well adapt- ed. For making slag bricks there are machines now in operation that will turn out frow 10,000 to 12,000 a day. The bricks are strong, perfectly uni- form in size and thickness, aud re- quire less mortar, The molten slag ranged round a rotary table, orsby grinding the material and mixing it with sand, and then pressing. Both bricks and slabs are found well adapted for railway platforms, build- ings of all kinds, baths, drainage armor : an egg to a perfect drone.

Some years ago I was in a mining town in California during the melon season. | As melons and fruits generally had to be hauled in wagons a distance of some twenty miles, I could not preeure them with the usual regularity. Upon one occasion my supply of melons gave out chill. Sure enough, one day while en- ‘How do you do when you put any-' there, and eat soup, and wear check ' gaged in a mine I was taken with a very thing inte the post-office?” she de-' aprons, and have nohody like this to; severe chill.

Just about this time a supply of melons arrived and I commenced eating them heartily. 1 had a craving appetite tor oysters and vine- gar, bat little or vo appetite for anything else except melons. I procared from an wdjacent store some Baltimore canned oysters and cousumed about three cans daily, served with streng vinegar, and between meals ate heartily of melons. Strange as it may seem, these two medi- cines combined, without any medicines whatever, cured the chills as thoroughly as could have been done by means of quinine er any other remedy. | had only ove chill. “The philosophy of the matter is this: ‘The melons reopened the bowels which had probably become costive, and the oysters, being a strong dict. strength- ened nature, thus enabling her to throw off the disease and restore the system to itr normal condition. The faet that the chills were completely eradicated while using melous must be conclusive proof that they will pot produce chills, if eaten regularly. I afterwards spent much .of my time during several melon seasons in Marys- ville, a city much addicted to chills, by reason of adjacent swamps and low lands. I ate welons regularly and had no chills, whilst many who were afraid of them had chills. Ihave never been in any place where chills appeared to be so prevalent as in Marysville, and I will give it as my opinion that melons, regularly eaten would do more to eradicate them than any other means that could be devised. They would doubtless be cheaper than cloctors’ bills, to say nothing of the com- forts ineident to avoiding sickness. After a person becomes used to cating melons they may be used to the fullest extent, even. becoming a substitute for water for weeks at a time without pro- ducing the least injurious effect. In fact if used regularly to this extent, fevers generally would be consigned tothe back - At the close of the melon sea- son fruits, such as apples, should be ea- ground, good melon, and general observation of , ten freely to keep the bowels regular un which would doubtless result in compell- til the time for chills pass.

Another good plan for selecting a mwel- on is to examine the side that lay on the gronod. If the melon the vine uutil properly matured this portion to have changed from a remained on will be found white to a pale yellow, and, upon a close examination, numerous small pimples, somewhat like the measles, as It were, said surface, parti- These will be noticed ou cularly near the pimples may be regarded as a sure indi- on the oufer edge. ention that the melon remained vine until mature. as they never appear on those that have been prematurely pulled. Sometimes this desirable pale yellow is prodaced prematurely by tarn- ing this portion of the melon to the sun for a day or two. In this case the yellow is apt to be too deep. This fret m nection with the absence of pimples, will ! readily tell the experienced eye how said con- color was produced. | MELONS A PREVENTIVE OF CHILLS AND PEVERS. | Melons are a mild aperient, and if ea- ‘ten properly will keen the bowels free and regular, thug preventing chills and fevers generally. Bat, to insure these reauits, the melons should be of good quality and caten regularly, say twice a day at sueh hours as will Jenst interfere with meals. For a few days at the first of season they should be partaken of sparingly, gradually increasing the quan- tity. If partaken of too freely at the start they are apt to derange the bowels bot if you will stick to them, eating fora while sparingly, you will soon become forth be all right for the remainder of the season, provided theyare eaten regularly. But if eat irregularly, say freely for sev- ral days and then none for several days, the bowels will be apt to undergo corres- ponding changes from an aperient to a costive state, and disease may be the re- sult. Of course, it would be laid to the melons, when it was merely attributable to the irregular manver in which they had been eaten. To prove that melons when regularly eaten, will not produce sickness, especially chills and fever, which are so often laid to their charge, I will cite a case where they were actually instrumental in effecting a cure: | matured. | ie | pecially in regard to diet. ! | | | eign policy ? acclimated, as it were, and will threnee- | mclons have given out, and in order to successfully pass this point it will be nec essary to exercise cousiderable care ¢s- LIYGIENE. ae E Something’s broken loose at Wash- ington, Oue Clifton Sylvester, who siyne himself secretary pro tem., tells us a hargowing tale about Great Bri- tain, aud bids us prepare for the next war. ‘To that end he insists that a new generation demands new partics, new issucs, new leaders.

The South with her 5,000,000 bales of cotton which England consumes, would hardly wish to cut off this demand and reduce the rice of cottun to three cents a pound, The West that sends to England three hundred millions of dollars worth of provisions would hardly quarrel with her customer. ‘Ihe mercantile North that lives by its foreign traffic would not:care to see “grass growing” in the streets of ‘its commercial emporiuns.

YHURSDAY, JUYL 12, 1283. ——+ =— -_= A new war.seems imminent against the gilver dollar. The government, with a ptrange lack af wisdom, it would seem, has issired tyro entirely different pieces known as dollars —the “standard” silver dullar and the ‘trade dollar,” though the heavicat of the two, is the subject of de- preciation, in some parts of the coantry passing for only 85 cents. It is easy to xew how readily the objection to the trpdé dollar,” once generally admitted, ‘cpu Ye made effective against the stand- aril dollar also, in whieh case we shalt soon haye all the inconvenience, vexation and loss pf a depreciated currency. The Chicago Mining Keriew, of July 5th, is aceredited with the following sensible ar- ticle ou this subject s “OURRENCY V4LUE,” “«\ movement now inaugurated against the trade dollar may at this time be sac- seastully turned agajust the standard sil- ver dollar, and in fact against any claas of curreuey which js Wuited in its nsefalness by some restrictive legisla- tion. If the government will issac differ- ent classes and kinds of currency, and discriminate against one kind in favor of another by curtailing the value and lime jlig the power of certain parts to per- fo:m the werk of currency, We mnst con- tinue to suffer periodical seasons of tinan- cial disaster, and business enterprise can never be established upon a permanent and reliable foundation. If the govern- mevt has aright to diseriminate in the watter of currency 80 have the people. No just or sound reason can be given for destroy iug a large velugne of ovr na tional currency by limiting its value and making jt worthless outside of certain bounds. Jf the goyernment fixes the legal tender value of silver coinage at five dol- Jars it actually demonetizes its coinage, nnd by legislative act revders worthless all the money a party may have accumu- Juted above that amount. When the le- gal tender limit of silver or National Bank note carren¢y is reached the whole amount beyond that limit a persop may possess, even if it reaches into the thou sands of dollars, is worthless to perform the only purpose for which a circulating medjum should be created aud accumu- luted. This movement against the trade dul- Jar proves the point of value in a carren cy of any kind. It has been persistently claimed by the enemies of the standard silver dollar that the chief point of its deficiency. was its lack of weight; its bullion value was too small to entitle it to the name and place it was given. Now the war against the silver dollar has begur, and begins not upon the light standard dollar, but upon a doiar which, acvording to the theory giycn, possesses more valuc than the standard dollar. The objection to the trade dollar is not based upon its weight, but its legal ten- der disqualification, which, in reality is jts poibt of weakness, and gives it its measure of worthlessness. Al} currency based upon a restricted sphere of useful- hess must contain within itself these ele- ments of weakness and dapvger, and no substantial financial prosperity can be reared and sustained pon such a foand- dation. Such a monetary policy places a dangerous power in the hands of those who may be able to secure and control the better and more valuable class of carren- vy. The currency that is issued by the governnient mints should be money, re- gardless of the material used, aud this can only be done by making ita legal tender, Without placing resirietion Qpon jts power to perform the funetions of cur- yeney outside of certain Tniitations and boundaries. ‘The value of currency lies jn its power to perform its mission.— Money is valuable only as it can be ased As a cans to yecomplisl) a purpose. ‘Tu do this reguiaely and readily coustitutes the real value of currency. The fact has been proven by every test of petnal service that the enpreney value of a circulating medjan is the chief requi- site, and that the material issned or used tor the purpose is immaterial; gold, sil- yer, paper, nickle or copper, legally en- dowed and made a measure of value, will petform that purpose and office with equal facility, from the fact that these holding obligations are compell’d to accept if neeessary, whatever may by the law of the land be made a legul tender for in debteduess. In view of the terrible financial disaster to which this commtry has been subjected a npmber of times, with most crushing and discouraging results upon the indas trigs of the people, the importance of a rapid and sabstantial development of the immense resoure*s of the conntry, the justice which demands a fall power cur- rency for all classes of citizens alike, and the stability and prosperity of the Nation which can only come trom a sense of trust and security in the goyernment and its strength and justice, it is time to demand in the name of the people, that the enr- yency issued by the government shall, Without discrimination on the tine of ma- terial, be unrestrict in its ability to serve the purpose for which it was created. A jlollar put forth by the government as a dellar, whether in gold, silver or copper, must be a dollar under all circamstauces and for all purposes.” The New York Mining Record, July 7th, terms it a “conspiracy,” or “plot” gotten up by a parcel of greedy speculators of that city. ‘The Record says: “The whoop and din raised in New York city newapapers, from the whirligig Herald to the saprential Journal of Com- merece, is Not an accidental piece of news- pauper clap-trappery, by any means. Be- hind all this noise, engineering jt, paying tor itand plotting to profit largely by it in the end, is a greedy coterie or pool ot predatory speculators, whose aim is so transparent that it ought to be seen thro’ as easily as through the web of a spider. The gbject of this barelaced plot ix, to work a local panic among the small o1 retail dealers in regard to trade dollars, that will lead fo such a depreciation o1 them here in New York, as shall enable this rapacious syndjcate of Shylocks to purchase these dullarg at from ten tg fit Teen per cen discount and subsequently ju sell them to the employers of large bodies of working meu and working wo- yren at a large profit. * suachis the present excess of people peening cmpioy ment over the demapa, dupe employers cau successtully force tucir employees to accept # trade dolla tor one huudred cents, which had been Lought of a broker au hour or two previ- isis, at from 90 to 9S cents: Not to ae- ipewhe supply _— ——— a en ae the laboring classes, will be forced to take this coin from their customers, because it will form so mate- rial a part of the money they chance to have. These retail classes, to gaze u- selves, in time will add to tlie price of their wares sufficiently to make up the loss entailed in having to sell these dol- lars back to the money ehangers from whose hand they have come so recently. Thas the game is to be played. Toe this sordid, shameful scheme of speculation upon the necessities of the laborin class- es, the daily press has been and is sean- dalously lending itself for hire.” — OO It has been very traly remarked that public roads are not keeping ap with the general improvement of the country, a fact which no ene, not even the road workers themselves, will deny. The time has come for steam carriages to run ovcr our public ‘Toads, but the roads are not ready for them. The time has come when “time is money” to the farmer just as itis to other classes of busiggss men, and they cannot afford to wear ont teams avd wagons hauling through mad and over rocks a thousand pounds which could be just as easily transported at double speed with balf the power over good roads. Farmers are as sharp in common sense matters as other people ; and they are obliged to see that there is as much benefit from good roads as there is from the stock Jaw; and that the time has come to demand them, March with the music of the times, should be every man’s wateh- word. —> <a —- Messrs. Wallace of Statesville, says the Landmark, have completed an Bros. addition to their produce building for the more convenient handling and storing of dried fruits and berries.

Richards lived eight days with the shots in his head. Ou the Bth day he was sitting up smoking, and turning his head down, one of the balls feli out.

The tewn contains about We hope to have the pleasare of stating through these columns before many months shall have elapsed that the nam- ber of establishments for converting the sulpharets into salpharie acid has been increased by the addition of one, and that one in Davidson County. The sal- phurets exist in abundance, and can be converted at small expense in connection with the work of reducing ores. The only question is how to utilize the acid where it is niade, and this seems to be sulved by the discovery of immense beds of phosphate rock on the Cape Fear. When the C. F. & Y. V. Railroad is com- pleted to Greensboro, the phosphate can be transported at a slight expense to the place where the acid is made, and wanu- factured into fertilizers. We are informed that one of the largest reducers of ore in Swansea, Wales, reaps his largest profit fromthe manufacture of commercial manures. He not only utilizes all the acids he saves from his ores, bat he parchases al) that is made at the other redaction works at the same place. He has a Jarge flect of vessels carrying phosphate. from Charleston, 8. C., for the fertilizer business. I¢ seems reasoyable, therefore, to suppose that if the business is prefitable where the ma- terials have to be transported so far, it would be very remanerative where the principal ingredieuts are found so near The attention of capitalists is being called to this fact and it is vot im- together. probable that something will grow out of it soon. A few weeks ago we said that there is a good prospect that redaction works will be erécted and pat iv operation at Thomasville before long. We bave receiv- ed information to the effect that the pro- ject is taking shape. When the redaction plant is crected, it will cost but little more to save the sulphuric acid, and util- ize it in the way we have already shown. The profits will be immense, and there will be vo difficulty iv selling all the fer- tilizers that can be made. We have thus briefly outlined an im- portant industry that may confidently be expected to be in operation in’ this sec- tion at no very distant day, though for the present it may be delayed through the shortsightedness of capitalists; but other.

Companies amount to ovly $489,475, $981 200, fn 1882, and $1,370,375 in TSEI. “Al though the decrease in the amount of ivides is large, mining is “now an- re, being contannnes a larger scale, to a greater extent, generally more tably than ever before. The decrease in the athoant of the dividends is due largely to cessation of their pay- ment by Leadville companies. In the Tombstone district of Arizona, and Eureka district of Nevada, dividend paying mining companies are also back- ward, bat in both of these excellent dis- tricts active dévelopments are progress- ing, and the delinquents promise to come to the front again. Work is progressing with great profit in mostof the Leadville and Colorado mines; the stamps the Black Hills steadily poand out large amounts of gold. New Mexieo, Montana, Utah, Wy- oming aud Idaho, have to day nore mines, and, larger ones, than ever before. Arizova has ouly begun to deyelop her mineral wealth, while Nevada and Cali- fornia are holding their own fairly well. The only sick thing about the mining business is the mining market. The brokers wanted gambles; they wanted speculations; tliey had them; they fostered frauds; they ¢ultivated dead beats and swiudles ; they repudia- ted everything that was honest in mining —they gambled away their « fortanes. Legitimate mining had, they, said, its good points, but they wanted deals, and to day very few of the brokers with five years expevience, know where the Stand- ard Cons., Silver King, Horn Silver, On- tario, Northern Belle, without mention- ing the lesser mines are located, their depth, or in fact anything very material abont them. But for all this there is still some good among the chaff that has been thrown on this market, there are some very goud, palatable kernals, that will well pay in- vestwent. Among some of the stocks that have panved out pretty well and may be expected to continue doing so, we may meution ; Standard Cons., Copper Queen, Bulwer Cons., Bassiek, Catalpa, Iron Silver, Silver Cord, Homestake, North- ern Belle, which are at present, dividend payers. Then there are Londen Cons., Freeland, Breece, Dankin, Little Pitts- burg, Gold Cup. and steeks of many oth- er working companies that can be had at far under actual value, and will pay good, and in wany cases lmmense returns on a proportionately small investment.— Vee York Evening Stock [eport. ~_>- From the Pulpit.

The big rain last Monday prta friend of the Dispatch in a thinking notion, and the resalt was the following ecalenlation based on the anuual rain fall in’ the State. The anna.) rain fall in North Carolina is atated at fifty-two inches, and the area of the State is about 52,000 square miles. The rain that falls in the course of a year will amount therefore to about 46,992,- 120,685,714 gallons. ‘This quantiry is so enormous as to be incomprehensible an- less compared with something more fa- mitiar. For instance, it wonld take a solid body of water one mile square, avd nearly forty-three miles deep. It would make a river 870 feet wide, 50 feet deep and over 27,000 miles long. Supposing that every man, woman and child in the State to lift one gallon of water per sec— ond, working day and night, it would take over a year to raise this immeuse quantity of water. Nothwithstanding | year, The locusts’ are destroying the crops: de not complain about dry the great quantity of rain that falls every there are very i Darivgon Dispatch. The highest evidence of a great general is in the fact that with the least resources he overcomes the greatest number of his enemics, The highest character of a no- ble educator is to him who with the least pecuniary means educates the greatcst number of pupils aod brings light ana knowledge to benighted minds. No man in North Carolina has done more for the youthfal mind in-proportion to his limi- ted means than the Rev. Dr. R. L. Aber-}- nathy, President of Rutherford College. Starting in life a poor boy, by diut of la- ber and study he educated himself, be- came teacher, minister and president of the noble institution over which he now so able presides and which has shed its illaminating iufluénees over so many clouded minds. No man in the State per- haps has lived a life of three score years more devoted to the improvement and elevation of bis race. His life almost from boyhood, for over thirty years, ..has been devoted to the cause of education, morality and Christianity. He might have been independent, if not wealthy, had he been selfish or avaricious. But his time, talents and all, have been given for the geod of his fellow men, present- ing a noble example of the philanthropist and Christian. The praises of many of far less worth have been written in his- tory and sung in song. When one con- secrates talents, physical energy and life to the good of others he performs the highest earthly duty. Such men are of-| ten not appreciated until after death. Dr. Abernathy bas been an educator for about thirty years. Before the war the average number of students was about 100. The college began a mere old field school and was a success. As it in- creased in nambers its principlal secured eight acres of land, with this he provid- ed the basis of a higher and broader edu- cation. On this he laid the foundation of his brilliant sucecss. One contribu- tion iv land and one in money to repair. losses in buildings constitute tl mate- rial aid this man of God has received to aid him iv his glorious work. At the re- cent close of the last commencement ex- ercises the college numbered 278 students many of whom could: not incur the ex- penses of old colleges, such as Chapel Hill, Davidson, &c. Thas he brings ed- ucation within the reach of the many and sends out hundreds of teachers, to give it to thousands of others, unable to get it otherwise, During the last year the number of beneficiaries in the college was 49, or more than one-half the entire State of North Carolina educates at her Univer- sity with its liberal endowments and the tens of thousands of taxation annually paid to it. The bexeficiaries alone who have received free education at Ruther- ford College within thirty years amount to the very great number of 2,000 pupils. What a benefactor to our race! What a gift fellow men! At this college to all the poor and the sons and daaghters of all ministers (regardless of denomination) education is offered fice. What a neble character! With educa- tion and knowledge to be placed surely in the reach of all. Like Cocles at the bridge, he has to stand almost solitary and alone battling against the hosts of ignorance and ungodliness, uutil the cap- to his ital is safe, the seat‘of light and knowl- edge is secure against the assaults of the vandal and barbarous hords of ignoranee. Bat mach remains to be dove it the good work. The man who with small means untiring energy and talents has made so bright a record on earth (and it is believ- ed in heaven) needs the encouragement of all lovers of learning aud it is hoped that he will receive from the public, his} church and the State, if possible, that ma- | terial aid bis great worth and excellence so much deserve. EE ae Gatveston, July 9,—A dispatch in the News from San Antonio says fifteen days ago sister Clemeus of a Catholic order, mysteriously disappeared from New Bruanfels, where the society has its edu- cational iustitute. At first it was thought that she had gone to San Antonio or Aus- tin, but inquiry failed to reveal her whereabouts. Yesterday Gus Pheuffer of New Braunfels found a skeleton in the mountains eight miles from that town, aud it proved to be that of the missing sister. She was a German and had only been in this couutry oe year. It was suggested that she grew homesick, but as it is the rule of the society that no sister shall go on the streets of highways, an a@vduction with horrible acevmpani- ments is suspected. ee Tue Noten Caroiina Epirors.— AsuxvitLr, N.

E.y, Vermont, July 7.—Fonr compa- nies of State troops arrived here early , this morning and found the streete de- serted, the riotous miners not expecting them. Governor Barstow and other State officials accompanied the troops. Eleven of the rigleaders have been arrested, and no resistance was made, They will prob- ably be taken to Chelsea. Much sympa- thy is expressed for the miners, some of them are on the verge of starvation, some wowen with children in their arms have appealed to the troops for assistance, and money was raised to relieve their imme- diate wants. The mining company pro- poses to pay $2,500 of their indebtedness to the men at onee, and $2,000 next week and the remainder, $15,500, as soon as ore now in process of refinement can be put threngh and shipped. A large por- tion of the troops will probably retarn to-night as it is thought the danger is over.

The, following table gives the relative food value of the several foodstuffs named as calenlated from analyses, and wil] be fownd a pretty safe guide in deter- mining the practical foot value of the sume. Assuming Indian corn to be worth sixty-two cents per bushel of fifty-siz pounds, or 1.11 per hun- dred weight the relative values, ac- cording to the analysis, are as fol- lows 3 Corn lil Wheat - 1.13 Rye 1.08 Peas 1.51 Oats 0.98 Cotton seed meal 2.08 Sweet potatoes 0,32 Irish potatoes 0.26 Artichokes 0.24 Buttermilk 0.22 Cabbages or collards 0.17 Ratabagas 0.15 Rautabaga leaves .. 0.12 Turnips 0.11 The list might be extended mueh further, but we have given a number of the oftdinary and well-known breadstuffs. It will be seeu that tur nips occupy a low place in the stale. ‘But when we consider the enormous yield which a succes-ful crop will give, we find that turnips stand high in the list. -The difficulty lies in the fact that turnips are by no means a certain crop—less so than most of those in the list. This is due to the fact that the crop must make or fail in a comparative short time, as their period of growth is very short; and the season of the year at which they are plauted is usually very hot and oftea too dry.—Southern World. — -———-- —-— What We Have Notieed.

All these crea- tures scour the earth and air in search of their varied prey; the buzzards dart into the water after the de- funct sting-rays ; the little shivering chameleons play all over the dead- woed fences like streaks of light, flashing in aud out with their paint- ed throats as if endowed with human intelligence; and at night other strange things come with the humidity of the dew, lamp worms, tropical moths, strange hooting things that shudder in the tree tops and thrill you with their uneasy cries. The stars seem unnaturally numerous luminous and low ; the far night is full of strange sounds; the lightning trembles all around the edge of the sphere circle, in a sort of phosphorescent Aysteria ; and there is beavy scent and exhala- tion from the sleeping gardens. ‘The dew will soon wet your shoulders if you sit out in the open air; you can almost put out your tongue and drink it as it gathers on the velvety air; and you are emphatically warved vot to sit where it can saturate you.

The negro butler was ‘Mr.’ Pompey ; ‘Mrs.’ and ‘madam’ flew about among the black servants in grotesque confusion ; aud the sipgu- ‘lar inflections of West Indian Eng- lish, barbarized by long disassocia- tion from the motherland, made the management of the housekeeping as it floated up to my room in rather too distinct accents, a real comedy. The portly Miss B. in her ethereal robes of white had a peculiar habit of misplacing her h’s, which made the difficulty of a psychological anal- ysis of her still greater; for, though, on the one hand, she had the greater grinning cheeks, the monstrous mo- lars, the bruad India-rubber lips, the brown hue, the facial breadth and rotundity of a certain class of typical Ethiopians, yet, on the other, there was the Cockney accent, the A-misery the upper inflection, the broad vocal- ization of the denizens of Bow Bells. And the air of majesty with which she swept round, conscious of her im- perial power in that house at least, the aspect of massive virginity which her solid fratwe indicated, the rolling of her great black eye as she scanned the dinner-table critically to see that there were a few thou-and fly-specks leas to-day on the glass and china than there were yesterday, made one think of a West Indian Cleopatra surveying her realm with conscious satisfaction. She had the good taste not to sit at the tablo with ber guests, but rest- ed her voluminous dimensions in a large chair at a distance where she could inspect the table and sce that all was going right. Every day the table presented some ececntric freak or flight of gastronom- ieart; every day the bewildered guests plunged their exploring fork into the new compounds that appear- ed and withdrew them with new to- kens of bewilderment. ‘There were yams while as cream and flavorless as uubviled arrowrvot ; gre t goblets vf cocoanut water, slices of fish ooz- ing with strange dressing, mutton combed in strings instead of being carved, problematic salads having a greenness of vitriol aud the texture of a Georgia collard, and now and then a huge prawn with gogyzle-eyes boiled to hue of a lobster and look- ing strangely alive in its big dish. ‘The only thing on the table that was palatable was the fruit—golden bananas, luscious pineapples in their crinkled and moulded skins, piles of mangoes and star-apples, the great cucumber like alligator-pear eaten as a salad, and oranges that lighted up the dark rooms like lansps.—Southern World, Atlanta, Ga. . — + —~ <b oe New Orleans has now a deeper har- bor than New York.

Diphtheria, a family disease and « most dangerous one, is almost immediately cured by one or two doses of Brandreth’s Pills, aided by a gargleof lime water. Rhumatism, which comes from too much acidity or too much alka.inity of the system, requires noth- ing bet Brandreth’s Pills amd a few good sweats to make a perfect cure. ht is marvelous how they purify the blood.

Brandreth’s Pills have stood the test of forty- five years of use by the American people. They are entirely Vegetable. They are absolutely universal, for there is no disease they will not cure, iftakenintime. They are safe for infants and adu!ta. They aim to ac- eomplish three things; first, to purify the blood; second, to cleanse and regulate the stomach and, bowels; third, to stimulate the kidneys and liver and purge away the ashes of the sys- tem and diseased matters of the body. By pur- ging wi.h these Pills constantly, a mew body can be built up from fresh, healthy food in a few months. In this way, gout and rheuma-— tism, ulcers and fever sores c.n be eradicated in a few weeks. The worst cases of dyspepsia and costiveness can be cured by taking one or two pills eyery night fora month. In casesof twenty years’ standing, gentlemen have been cured by taking one pill a night for a year. Brandreth’s Pills give tothe human body, no matter how worn or decayed, the recuperative powers of youth. In their action, they imitate the rapid changes of the youthfal body. We all wirh to die of old age, A hundred years is the natural limit of life, which can only be reached by purging and purification. In general debility, nervous tremor, and mental depression Brandreth’s Pills havea marvelous effect. They have won the confi- dence of millions in all parts of the civilized world. Constitutionsshaken by long residence in unwholesome climates, or by sedentary hab- its, are wonderfully ren¢vated by a course of this extraordinary medicine, which, powerful as is its action on the whole system, is perfect- ly harmless to the tenderest frame. The Pills ure cou posed of rare balsams, without ihe ad- mixture of a grain of any mineral whatever, or of any other deleterious substance, They operate directly, powerfully, and beneficially upon the Whole niass of blood ; nor can we question the fact when we see indigestion cured, liver com. plaints arreated, the oppressed Innags brought into healthful play, and every physical func- tion renewed and strengthened by their agency.

PRAIRIE DU CulEeN, Wis,, Feb, 13, 1882, Iam inthe ninetieth year of my eatrhly pilgrimage, and before passing to another, and I trust, a better world, | wish to bear testimoe ny to the great virtues of Brandreth’s Pills asa household remedy, ‘They are the best blood purifiers and cleansers of the stomach and bow. els in the world. I have raised a family of 10 children, been blessed with three wives,and my family experience reaches over sevenly years. For over forty-five years I have known and believed in Brandreth’s Pills. They have cured me of indigestion, costiveness, dyspepsia; and the females of my family have found them invaluable at all times, I also wish to say that I have found AL1.cock’s Porous Puias- TERS very useful in breast pains, backache and weak muscles. ALFRED Brunson, A,M., D,D. CURE OF NEURALGIA. Taken asa ‘‘Forlorn Hope,” Brandr eth’s Pills Effectia ‘Magical Cure.—Small- Pox Cured. Schenck Ave., East New York, A pil 12, 1880. I must cordially give my testimony as to the great value of Brandreth’s Pills, verified by eighteen yeary’ experience in my mother’s (the late Mre, Dr. Geo M Browne) tamily and my own. ‘They were at first taken as a “for— lorn hope,” for the cure of a very severe case of Neuralgia of several years’ standing, the patient being completely prostrated by disease and the excessive use of opium, taken to dead- en the pain (by advice of her physician.) The effects were almost magical; in one month she was able to be up and walk around freely, and the disease has never returned. My mother was also cured of an attack of Inflamatory Rhumatism by the same-meana. About six years ago I was taken with what appeared to be a bad cold, but in a short time, symtoms of confluent Small Pox were developed, causing us moch alarm. I determined to try Brand. reth’s Pills as a remedy, and their efficacy was soon apparent. J was well much sooner than was expected, and without receiving «single mark or trouble ofany kind. It is my firm belief, judging from the severity of the case, that had I gone through the régular routine prescribed by physicians, I should have died. I know of many other instances of the value of Brandreth’s Pills in disease and sickness, which I will be happy to give to any one who will apply to me. Mrs. E. St. Jonn, —_——. USED THIRTY YEARS.

Suddenly the wind veered completely around, the vessel was eaught ‘aback’ aud in less time than it takes to write it the fury of the squall had burst upon us, The ship was ander full sail when she was struck and immediately careened an- til ber decks were at an angle of forty- tive degrees. Some of the lighter eails were blown to tatters, aud the s euder strips of these popping in the wind sounded like the discharge of firearms. This mingled with the vaciferations of the crew, the almost incessant peals of thunder and the rouring of the waves tormed a pandemoninin easier to imagine than to describle. How it did rain! as if the bottom had dropped out of the celestial water tauk. Happily these an- welcome Visitatious are of short duration. They come and goiu a hurry—but oh! what a forlorn and bedraggled assemblage they leave iv their wake. We made a very unwelcome discovery to-day.

Still not the head of a Yankee had showed. They were lying close down to decoy us in. I looked at Col. Hyman and heard him say “retreat.” Then it was aran for life one handred vards across a plain open field before we got to the woods to shelter us. As we ran the fall line of Yankee works arose and fired atus. But they must have been scared. They fired too high. Bat one man was touched and he was ouvly slightly burt. Lieut. Roland Williams, of Company I, was hit on the heel. We get to the woods and fought them behind shelter till the main live made the charge. Maj. Engelhard rode doyn to the “Thirteenth” and made them a short talk, complimenting them on haying made “the most gallant charge of the war.” I think his horse was either killed by a shell or he himself damaged im some way while he was sitting at the edge of those woods.

There were only three, Wm. Parker and his tivo sous, who voted for them to preach. So they did not think it prudent to preach iu Cleveland. No threats were use.

In the first place, remove the patient to the airest available room in the house. Create a draught, and if possible a cross draught, withont fear that the admission of air from a sunblistered courtyard, for instance, would make the room equally unconfortable ; the thermal contrast itself will create an air carrent, and that drfught will be coolor to the feeling than was dressed in badly piade and some- what shabby clothes, and looked like a third or fourth-rate clerk of a small office.

It lias been said, and I will repeat it, “God is great in great things, but He is very great in little things.” 1 will Mustrate this by an incident which oceurred in the room of a relative du ring Scripture reading. There was a beautiful engraving on the wall of the Matterhorn Mountain. We were re- marking that the won lrous works of Godwere not only shown in those snow- cladmountains,but also in theitiny mos- ses fonnd in its erev.ces, A friend pre-- ent said, “Yes, [ was with a party at the’ Matterhorn, and, while we were admiring the sublimity of the scene, a geuatleman of the company produced a pocket microscope, and. having caught a tiny fly, placed it under the glass, He reminded us that the legs of the hougghold fly in Eagland were naked, then called our attention to the legs of this little fly, which were thickly covered with hair.” Thus showing that the same God who made those lofty mountains rise, at- tended to the comfort of the tiniest of his creatures, even providing socks and mittens for the little flies whose home Lhese mountains were.—T. New- berry’. ee Newspaper Honor. Of late years the journalist has come to assert his claim upon the world- lings more effectively than before, and the oldtime carelessness of the people towards him is steadily disappearing. Phe man who, with his pen, makes presidents, congresses, and in reality is the great aud only speaking trum- pet between the people and their wishes, is to-day recognized as one of the leading powers of politics, gov- ernment and society. An exchange prints some happy words in this re- gard ; ‘ Some people have a very mistaken idea of journalistic honesty. “They Phey think that whatever appears in print of which they happen to disap- prove has been placed there with ma- licious intent. This mistaken idea has iustigated numerous suits for li- bel, but the general result of such suits proves that the idea is mistaken. It must occasionally happen that some- body will be misrepresented, or some trxet misplaced. A newspaper which draws it news daily froma a th@usand different sources cannot always get ever jot and title exactly as it ought to be; it employs men to gather its information-—men who are eminently trustworthy—and they exercise their best judgment in their work ; the re- sults of their labor is carefully looked over and edited before they go into print; and yet it is not surprising that some mistakes creep in. The surprise should really be that their reports are so accurate as they are.

Another idea seems to prevail amoug some individuals, who judge others by themselves ; that the opin- ions expressed by newspapers are beught like an artie!e of merchandise. ‘'o such minds it seems impossible that a paper could have an opinion of itsown and the courge to express it. Of course, men naturally honest them- selves expect the same virtues in oth- ers, and we believe that such are largely in the majority; bat for the benefit of those small uxinds who are so suspicious they believe nothing they read because they think such |opinions are purchashed, we say that the respectable journals of the present day would indignantly spurn any of- fers to buy their editorial opinions. They have as much regard for their journalistic honor as the strictest busi- ness wan has for his mercantile standing.—Printers’ Circular. e Mute Sweep. —The Tuscarora Mining News says, for the last two years a one of buck mountain sheep have been ranuing with Mr. Railey’s flock in Bull Ran Basin, and there are now between twenty and thirty half-breed lambs in the lot.— They are mostly covered with hair, although there is some good wool in- terspersed with it. They carry their heads high, like the wild sheep, but are as easily herded as their half brothers and sisters of pure domestic blood. They are,of course, of no ac- count for shearing, but are said to makeexcellent mutton, This is the on- ly instauce of which we have heard of the crossing of the wild and domestic sheep.

My wife for many years was confined to her bed suffering from spinal disease. After spend ing a thousand dollars in vain effort to get cured, she applied three ALLCock’s PLas— TERS to the spinal column, one above tlic other. Ina few days all -pain left her. She applied fresh plasters every two wecks and in the course of two manths she com— pletely recovered her health. At first she could hardly walk ‘across the room; each day she walked a little further, and now she is able to walk five miles without fa— tigne. She still occasionally applics the plasters to her back, but she has been per- fectly well for upward of a year. LEWIS L. HAMMEL.

In my, own case they afferded me almost instant and permanent relief. My friends consider them an invaluable and speedy remedy ‘1c. all kinds of aches and pains. They are a blessing in disguise; and no wife or mother should be without them if she values her peace and comfort and freedom from ner- vous exhaustion and other ailments.

Your task it is to hold the guage That measares public right; And for the people’s good to wage With wrong an canoes fight. No private gain, no selfish end, Must check the utterance strong, With whieh the Right you e’er defend, Or boldly censure Wrong. No coward’s heart, no fawning thrift, No lust of place, nor gold ; For tho’ self-chosen, still it is A pablic trust you hold. Between the factions of the day, That mean ignoble strife, Men look to you to point the way To a purer public life. ‘ . n To lift the public standard ap ‘Toa higher, broader plane, Where the country’s good is sometimes sought, Instead of private gain, You spin the subtle threads that sway The people in their choice ; The echo of your words it is That swells the public voice.

A New Orleans correspondent of the Nashville American writes as fol- lows: There is no portion of New Orleans so full of interest to a stranger er nonresident than that which a stran- er prettily called“the New Orleaus of eorge W. Cable.” Its old red-tiled, cottage-houses, some with great over- hanging roofs that serve as a sort of awning, with high balustrades of tiles set on end, forming a decoration around the edge of the roof, are pret- ty to look upon. ‘Time has softened the angularities in thexe small houses, jthe winds of many years have blown a rich soil upon their tops, as witness —I passed a cottage on Bourbon sireet the other day upon the tiled roof of which grew, in luxurious profusion, golden rods each stock at least four feet high. Far down upon the corner uf Roy- ul and another street stands a big square house, built in old French style. It is five stories, and although there are great scars upon the gray stone walls, and the ornate carvings over the peaked tops of the small- paned windows are beginning to crumble off, it is a building whose ar chitectural features attract the atten- tion of all the sight-hunting strangers. About fifty years ago this house be- longed to a wealthy old French wo- man whom one may call Mme. La- Laurie. She owned many slaves, and lwhen she weut to live in her Royal street residence she furnished some of rooms in grand style. That the Madame was a she-devil, who tortured her slaves, all the town lwas beginning to know. There was ES deep well in the back yard, in which it was said she hung the ne- yroex, even to the little babies, sus- | pending them by the arms so that the feuld, black, foul-smelling water came up to their lips, and there they hung Lill almost dead. If they died in the water, especially the babies, who could) net naturally endure such treatment, the body was weighted, the rope cut, and the poor freed dark- ey sunk swiftly out of sight. In a room on the lower floor of the house Mme, La-Laurie had built a sort of dungeon —a brick room ina brick room. It has one windew, with iron gratings across it, and is as black and awful louking as uny dungeor you can imagine. The floors in this echoing old building are full murderous-looking-stains, and to-day if water is thrown upon them, they come out bloud-red. It was up in the yarret, though, that the worst tortur- ing was done, Here this blood-thirs- ty old woman, su they say, upon ‘the least pgovocation, used to take her them by the hands to the floors, and then amuse herself by cutting off their ears, tearing ont their nails, and cut- ting out their tongues, Que night there came a hoarse roar blowing duwa the varrow length of Royal street, and toward midnight a black crowd of human beings—that awful result of an outraged community, a mob—surrounded that stately, grim building. The old) French mistress listened in scorn to the storm-like clamor, until the tumalt of people ap- parently came toa halt under her own windows, and she heard her own name cried out with threats for her of the torture, She sprang down the oaken stair- way, across the marble hall, past the dungeon, then full of festering wretchs, past the well of water—they say the reason ’tis so black to-day is owing to the little negro babies on the bottom —and loosening the heavily barred back gates, she made ber way to the river side. She dudged her pursuers and crossed over the river in a canoe, Finally, she escaped to France, where she afterward died, They say the mob, after freeing the negroes, fairly gutted the house. Of course the place is haunted. By all the laws of sensationalism it could net but bea place where bluck ghosts walk, The building was ouce used as a public high sehool, but the parcuts of the girls were superstitious and would not allow their danghters to cross the threshold of the place, so it was aban- doned, [We clip this from an exchange with some kuowledge of the subject. The narrative is true, yet hardly half told. When a lad, we were in New Orleans shortly after the attack ou Madame La-Laurie’s house, ‘The in- terior was a wreck. We were point- ed out the places from which the dead bodies had been taken, the cells in which the tortured slaves daily re- ceived the cruel visits of the she-dev- il who passed hour after hour in in- flicting the most cruel torments. It was said that this womat alone of all va family cxcaped the massacre of St, | Domingo, and her daily cruelties were lin re-enge for the death of her hus- band and Ler children, She escaped | by the aid of a negro man; and this same man again saved her from the fury of the New Ovleans mob.

This is the key note of their harmony, and it is well that it should be se, because here a real issue is raised, and on this platform the Republican party finds it is antagonized and opposed by a united Democracy, determined to put an end to public plunder, fixed in the purpose of putting plunderes out and putting honest men in.—N.

The machinery is ‘su adjusted that ‘at the hour of 1, two figures, repre- | senting Roman- soldiers with shield Ing soldiers with siie and sword, announce the dawn of time, and man’s entrance upon the | stage of life. Five minutes later a small door near the top of the clock flies open and an almost life-like bird rs, and in exceedingly doleful | chants the “Flight of Time.” Another five minutes glided by, when the duor of another apartment opens and reveals a little babe, which re- mains five minutes, At different peri- ods until the next hour there come und go figures which repre ent the child, youth, man in his strength, in his decline, helpless age, and his last long sleep. During the entire day and night a sentinel walks to and fro along a gal- lery prepared for him, and halts and turns as natural as life. At each hour there appears a figure representing ithe different nations of the earth—at 1 'y’elock the Russian, at 2 the Prussian; at 3 an invisible orchestra mystifies the hearer with most excellent rendi- tions of choicest selections; at 4 the Austrian appears; at 5 an Italian ; at 6 two doors in the chapel open and the sexton sounds chimes, which are set to form perfect harmony, and sev- | eral beautiful selections are rendered; at 7 a representative ef France bows _to the lookers-op, and then marches on to make rowia af & for the Span- iard. At 9 thé orchestra is again heard, At 10 rel-coatéd Johnny Ball steps forth, aud is fullowed at 11 by Uncle Sam, who appears from the rear of the clock, flag in hand, and performis the remarkable feat of climb- ing a pole on the top of the clock. He fastens the Stars and Stripes to the top, descends and dis:ppears. While this scene is going on drums in the interior are beating merrily. At 12 o'clock large folding doors ure opened and a sacred scene is pre- sented, which is still more wonder- ful than those already mentioned. It shows the Saviour in the presence of the Apostles evidently giving them their instructions, as it is His last night on earth. He moves about and addresses each one of His faithful fol- lowers in turn, makirg lifelike gest- ures. After thus having delivered himself, He lies down and safrenders himself to his enemics. ‘The Apostles then withdraw from the scene, follow- ed by the traitor Judas, whe, with the bag containing thirty pieces of silver, strikes five bells as he ieaves the scene. The cock on top of the clock then flops his wings and. crows three times. During the time Christ is instructing his Apostle, Satan ap- pears upen the scene twice, as if in doubt as to his actions. ‘This scene closes, when two trumpeters appear, and raising their bugles to their lips, proclaim the close of night. Dutiug the twelve hours the clock plays three musical selections, and 2,022 automat- ie movements are made. Of course, the machinery is so arranged as to permit the entire performance of the automatons taking place every fifteen or twenty minutes, The inventor of this wonderful time piece was born in Baden, Ger- many, in 1846, and serving an ap- prenticeship toa watchmaker in his na- tive place, went to London, where he remained six years. In 1881 he came to this city and secured a situation with Mr. J. C. Hanna, where he has since remained. ‘His wonderful clock he constructed in spare moments, in the mornings and evenings, having commenced work on it seven*years ago. He has always shown remark- able ingenuity, having several years ago made a maniature clock wirich he wears fora shirtstud, and which keeps correct time. This invention caused considerable talk in scientific circles, as Mr. Roh- rer was the first person who succced- ed in demonstrating the fact that a yendulum could be made to swing while the time piece lay on its back. the dial of his “shirt front” clock is held in the pin hole nearest the col- lar, while the lower part of the mani- ature concern appears about one inch below, where the pendulum. is scen swinging to and fro, Mr. Rohrer in- tends putting his latest product cn exhibition thruughont the country.— Newoastle (Pa.)

Ruil-> road ; of its direet afd happy influence upon the fortunes of this section ; and of the almost immediate jectors. The designation of Astrevitle as 1 for the Insuranee Con- vention developed the existence of two independent competing routes, conyerg- ing from diametrically opposite directions upon the same focus, both proving them- selves equipped with alntost equal facili- ties; and beth proving themselves as nearly equal in, poiut of time in the con—- teat for expediton. Two patties of insur- ance men, leaving’ Atlanta,evere indaced to test the merits of the two routes, one leaving by the Air Line road by «ay of Charlotte and Salisbury; the othet by the Kennesaw route, via Knoxville, Mor- ristown aud the Warm Springs. Making allowance for the different hours of Teav- ing, there was no great differeuce iv the hours of arrival ; po very material differ- ence iv the time cousamed; and vo dif- ference, as far as we learn, in the eomforts of travel; for the Pallman cars ov beth trains, of the one by Charlotte, aud the one by Knoxville, both are on the Ashe- ville siding to prove the reality of the power of both companies to do what they undertake, _ ‘The results to us are important and far reaching. They point to. the faet that Asheville has been thrown upon the great lines of travel; that it is open in frout and in rear; that it is reached from the East and the West with equal facility ; that this section is now the prize for the competition of rival eompanics and rjval communities; and the day bas dawned that brings glorious reality to the visions of the prephetic Cauldwell. Looking upon what is already accomplished, could he once more stand among us, how coatent- edly he might exclaim, ‘Lord, now lettest Thy servant depart in peace.’ ” = ee Beautiful Harmony. Asheville Citizen, The South waits very patiently for time and history to vindicate her, to do justice to her course in engaging iv the late war, which grew out of the defence of the constitution; aud to see the just award to the character and military skill of her suldiers, at the present defamed with the brand of rebel and pirate. The time is evidently at hand when Northern journals begin to mash their own idols. The views of the New York Tivbune, than whom there has been no more obsequious eulogist of Ulysses S. Grant, after a more dispassionate survey of the mau and his euvirouments accord, very nearly with those fur a long time eutertained by im- partial Democrats, North and South.— Grayt was the creature of circumstances and the sportef popular madness. A quarter of a century heuce tho whole world will judge with the caudor of the Tribune: “In the tenacity with which Grant followed out a determluation once tixed in his mind, perhaps no man has cvei surpassed him, but tt was an expensive virtue for his soldiers, aa the hundred thousand he lost in Virgivia are a witness. Whether he should have been removed | after Cold) Harbor, a disastreus blunder only equaled by Buruside at Fredericks burg, is a difficult matter to deicrimine. | If he had been, the final result would vot } have differed much in all probubility. Yet this man, who happened to receive the surrendered eword of Lee, became on that account the supposed hero of she war; received the credit of having sap- pressed the Confederacy ; without educa- tion fer or experience in civil affairs, <a made Presideut for eight years, and final- ly was carried all around the earth and exhibited to the vations as the prodigy of the age. The people in | reatest their “exuberant jo) at the returu of peace wished for a here to whom they could pay homage, and, Liveoln being dead, seize upon Grant nel the nearest object. Happier for hjm and for them had he been allowed to continue, like Sherman and Sheridan, quietly at his post of duty! America does not re- quire ceJebr ities of a false lustre to satis- fy per pride. There are others who are deserving,’ as Mr. Emmejson said.” =r a a The Cholera---Sweeping Egypt and Spreading. ALEXANDRIA, July-24.—One European has died here from cholera.

It appears that the chairman of the Republican executive commitice, Dr. J. J. Mott, sent his bench- man, oueGillespie, here Jast week to levy au. xssessment ov all the Federal office- holders in the State. When asked what the money was wanted for, he said that Dr. Mott would start a daily Adminis- tration paper at Raleigh with the money. Col, I. J. Young, collector of internal revenue, was told that he must assess his men from $50 te $250 apiece, according to their salaries, - Young rebelled against the young man’s scheme, aud told him he would neither be nor allow his men to be robbed under any such pretext. ‘The assessuient averages about 10 per cent., aud would produee about $75,000, while tho paper talked of would consume about |. $5,000 if it slivald be started, Young’s resistance to Mott's demands stirred things up, and the doctor appeared here Weduesday, aed, passed through with Young to the seashore. 1, There ig great excitement among the Republicans about the whole affair, and talk of a public meting to call the at- tention of President-Arthur to the pre- position of Mott to force this enormous sum of money from the officchobders, Motts says if he caunot dictate who shall held offic c, and then, iv tarn, be allewed to levy on them for everything he needs torun the coalition movement, that he will not keep his chairmanship. Republi- cans think itis merely a biind to con- tinue a busiuess which has been goiug on in this State‘awong Federal officials for ten years past. Young's friends say that Mott has threatened to bave him removed by the President if he does not consent to the squeezing process. The better class of Republicans do not believe that Arthur is cognizant of the plan on foot by Mott to mouvy. It is kuown here, some say, that Mott aspires to a dictatorship or boss sifip, aud has succeeded in getting the departments at’ Washington to allow him to fill the offices. Ib turn, he wrings from the officeholders large sums uuder the plea of uw coalition newspaper or something else. A full disclosure of his desingus will bury the Republicau party in Nerth Carolina.

The want of railway facilities is the greatest barrier to mining in that county. Free gold is found in the’ grit and top soil over a large area of the county. The amount taken by petty “branch washers,” amounts to thousands annually; and varies with the crops. When the crops are poor, and breadstuff high, a large number are foreed to “hunt gold” for a maintenance, and the result is that the gold crop is best when the bread crop is poorest.

The fair sex don’t hold all the curiosity in the world. It is a mistaken notion that a fine store in an eligible location, surrounded by at- ment, for the experience of the most en- terprising merchants is that it pays bet- ter tospeod,lessin reut and advertising. more in The enterprising advertiser proves that he understands how to buy, because in advertising he knows how to sell. A simple card may profitably stand years without a change, but a sensation- as you can get the printer to do it. You can’t eat enough in a week to last youa yearand you can’t advertise ov that plan either. To make a man realize an idea as you realize it, is what is necesary to make him understand his needs. Advertise- ments must aim to place a matter so clearly before the public that they see it as clearly as the advertiser does. Enterprising people are beginuing to learn the value of advertising the year round: ‘he persistency of those who are uot intimidated by the cry of ‘dull times,’ but keep their names before the public, will surely place them ou the right side in the end,— Fx. ~_- Can one imagine anything that would be more humiliating to Bismarck than for a marked copy of a Chinese newspa- per to be sent him in which it was stated that “von Bismarck, the prominent hog packer of America, has the gout.” Yet as proyoking a mistake was recently made by the German Ministry of Public Works at Berlin, who stated that Han.

Cooley, who served as referees in a certain railway dispute some months ago, “were three Euglish railroad met,” who were selected because of their learning and fitness, and who crossed the salt seas by request to form an intelligent judgment on the spot, and Parliament. This, bad as its, is however not quite equal to the mistake of those English papers, which represented R. B.

The arrearage of pensions act was passed in consequence of misstatements. It was! yiven out that the additional expense would | be about $46,000,000 in all. Had the truth been known that it would entail a burden of $500,000,000 we risk nothin, in saying that it would have received but a slight support. It was. passed not so much to benetit the soldiers and their families as to create a demand for revenue and thus pro- long the apparent necessity for the existing tariff. Soon afterwards the chief of bureau ask for a large increase of ferce—say 2,000 additional clerks. This was to expedite payments. But while he estimated that last year he would be able to pay out $118,- 00,000 for pensions, he really paid out but 71,000,000. That was a differénce of $47,- 000,000. We surmise that he fuiled to make these payments for a purpose. The effect of the tax reductions of last year that are now going into operation is pron biematical. It is anticipated that there will be a very considerable decrease in the revenues. Now, when that becomes appar- cnt we predict that the Pension Bureau will rush its business, and will call speedily for the $47,000,000 it did not expend | year, and will also pay out all that it-can obtain trom the treasury so as to absorb all the surplus revenues, In this way it may | i hopped around the room.

It is worth while to inquire whether the best mills, from which the pressed cane comes out almost as thin and dry as carpenters’ shavinge, do not secure a much larger percentage. Befoe concluding the report, Professor Cook refers to the works of the sugar company in Cape May county, where 964 acres were planted with early amber and early orange seed, which gave 6,200 tons of topped cane—one field of eight|' acres giving 136 tons, or 17 tons-an acre, and another of orange cane on 20 acres affording 259 tons, or over 12 tons an acre. The purity of the juice was _re- markable for the amount of sugar in 100 pounds of solid expressed matter in a week’s work being as high as 87, and in one instance 92. The returns show 319,944 pounds of mannafactured sugar and.40,000 gallons of dense syrup. Prof. Cook, in commen with others who have tried the early ripening kinds of sorghum expresses strong hope in the ultimate success of this industry, and cites the fact that some 2,000,000 000 pounds of sugar are yearly consumed in this coun- try, or 40 pounds to each inhabitaut, on- ly one-eighth of which comes from the sugar cane growing States, as a reason for giving this industry thorough and ex- tensive trial, —<—>-—__-— His Happy Famity.—There is a family in Germany each of whose members is by nature hostile to all the others, and yet is known as “The Happy Family,” be- cause each one bad been trained to respect the rights of all.

Just.as quickly au old miner checked him. , ‘Never killa rat inthe mines; theyll bring us luck.

Before one of thu-e terrible “‘caving-in” accidents the rats seem to feel the settling of the earth some minutes befure men perceive it. They come hurrying out of their holes and’ scamper over the floor iu a very excited way, and thus give warning, which sometimes en- ablis the men to escape. No wonder they make pets of the sleek little fellows, which are really as friendly as kittens, when you come to know the Lest side of them. Often the men have individual pets among them, wlo come out at dunch time to be fed as orderly as if they were pam- pered dogs. They clear up the refuse, and leave nothing to spoil in the hot air of the mines, which owes much of its clean- liness to these scavengers. If the rats can be made of: use, I wonder if there is anything that can- not? A man took one out of a trap once, and pnt a little bell, of the sleigh bell pattern, about his neck, and set him loose. You might hear that little bell up stairs and down! stairs in) the walls of the house, by night or by day, and it was very apt to frighten anyone not in the secret. It did scare away all the other rats and mice in the building, so the lit- tle bell ringer had all the premises to himself.

Brandreth’ Pills have stood the'test of forty- five yeara of use by the American people. They are entirely Vegetable. They are absolutely universal, for there is no disease they will not cure, iftakenintime. They are safe for infants and adualta. They aim to ac- complish three things ‘ first, to purify the blood; second, to cleanse and regulate the stomach and bowels; third, to stimulate the kidneys and liver and purge away the ashes of the sys- tem and diseased matters of the body. By pur- ging wi.h these Pills constantly, a new body can be built up from fresh; healthy food in a few muaths. In this way, gont and rhenma— tism, ulcers and fever sores c.n_ be eradicated in a few weeks. and costiveness.can be cured by taking one or two pills eyery night fora month. In cases of twenty years’ standing, gentlemen have been cured by taking one pill a night for a year.

Taken asa “Forlorn Hope,” Brandr eth’s Pills Effect.a Magical Cure.—Small Pox Cured. Schenck Ave., Fast New York, April 12,1880. I most cordially give my testimony as to the great value of Brandreth’s Pills, verified by etgtiteen years’ experience in my mother’s (the late Mre, Dr, Geo M Browne) tamily and my own. ‘They were at first taken as a “for- lorn hope,” for the cure of a very severe case of Neuralgia of several years’ standing, the patient being completely prostrated by disease and the excessive use of opium, taken to dead- en the pain (by advice of her physician.) The effects were almost magical; in one month she was able to be up and walk around freely, and the disease has never returned, My mother was also cured of an attack of Inflamatmy Rhumatism by the same means. About six years ago | was taken with what appeared to be a bad éold, but in a short time, symtoms of confluent Small Pox were developed, causing us much alarm. I determinedto try Brand. reth’s Pills as a remedy, and their efficacy was soon apparent. J] was well much sooner than was expected, and without receiving a single mark or trouble of any kind. It is my firm belief, judging from the severity of the case, that had I gone throngh the regular routine heaeg te physicians, I should have died, know of many other instances of the value of Brandreth’s Pills in disease and sickness, which I will be happy <o give to any one who willapply to me.

We have recently visited some of the most important places and inter- This coun- try abonnds in iron and coal, and we were surprised to find so many foun- dries in successful operation, She al- 80 wany other valuable min- erals, as well as mines of precious gems. Her fine marble and. slate quarries not only supply the local de- mand butare largely exported to other lands. ‘In many sections the manu- facture of textile fabrics, such as linen, silk, wool, etc., is extensively. carried on, and her pottery-ware is justly cel- ebrated, Occupying a central position in Eu- rope, much of the southern part of her territory is rolling aud mountain- ous, but the mountains are vot so high as to forbid the labor of man from bringing them into cultivation. The northern part of the couutry is level | and much of the soil naturally poor | and sterile, yet by means of ditching, irrigating and intelligent husbandry, all lands susceptible of improvement are made reasonably productive, ‘The | leach of whjch is surmounted by a sep- mode of cultivation here differs essen- tially from ours. The manufacture of the beet sugar is at important in- dustry, and owing to the scarcity of | fuel great interest is now taken in forestry cultivation, Germany is not surpassed in edu- cational facilities. Germany not ouly possesses some of the finest universi- ties in the world, but her common schools extend their blessing to every houseliold and give to each one the essentials of a good education. military system is recognized as the most perfect in Europe. Every man is required to serve for three years in the army, with the exception of a fa-| vored few who escape with one year’s | service, At the expiration of his term of enlistment the suldier is not really discharged, for though permitted to return to private life his name is still bonre on the rolls, his residence is not- | ed and he constitutes a part of what is known as the reserve force. peace basis the Germanarmy numbers less than a half million of men, but it is estimated that au army of one mil- lion and a quarter can be concentrated at a given puint at twenty-four hours’ notice. The soldiers are well uni- formed, martial in their bearing and a splendid looking set of men ; indeed the Germans generally present a fine uppearance. * > - : Berlin, the capital of Prusia, as- pires to be the handsymest city in Europe. In her development is fur- nished av example of the benefits de- rived from the pussession of wise and sagacious rulers. Situated on the banks of the magnificent river Spree, in the midst of a sandy desert plain, she at- tained no importance prior to the reigu of Frederick the Great, but un- der his fostering care became a city of 150,000 inhabitants, That wire statesman and great soldier, against a combination which pursued bin with a seven years’ war, raised lis country into the first rank among nations, Su- perior to the prejudices of his age he practiced religieus toleration, and hy the patronage of letters and in search of deep philusephy, “wove such a halo around his name that a history of his life reads more like the embellishment of fancy than an unimpassivned nar- rative of facts. Under the present confederation Berlin became the capital of the Ger- man empire, and Bismarek has proved to the new city what Frederick was to the old. She is now the pivotal point of all political movements, and no continental nation hzzards any great or important movement against unother without first ascertaining the temper and consulting the wishes of this imperial centre, dominated by the massive brain and imperturbable will of the first diplomatist of the age. Under the new impulse given to her, Berlin is moving forward with rapid strides, and already numbers one mil- lion and a quarter inhabitants, In her university there are 6,000 students and in her Polytechnic over 3,000, and we were not. prepared to find among them so many young men from the United States. * * * * From Berlin we visited Potsdaw, and were shown over the palace and beautiful grounds of Sans Souci, which was fora long time the resi- dence of Frederick the Great. One of the most interesting points at this place is the celebrated old wind-mill, the owner of which refused to sel! it to this man of more than imperial pow- er, but who had too much reepect for law to force him to do so. Another interesting point was his favorite walk, where his pet greyhounds and horses are buried, and where he hoped fin- ally to rest. On their monuments are marked their names and the dates of interment. ‘The palace was unoccu- pied during a period of filty years af- ter his death, and his library and ether apartments are still preserved as be left them. The grounds are now lehdidly kept, and while we were there many people were walking throngh them, and the varied and i the | Ona luxuriant a handsome and ninety-six fountains in fall play ve the place an animated and strik- ing appearance, = While in Potsdam we called to see a member of the American en, who is on a visit to his Fatherland, and who, the day before, had inform- ed us that when he emigrated to America he went from necessity as a steerage passenger. Had the remaiu- ed in his native country, where the maxim prevails of ne sulor ultra ecre- pidam, be would doubtless be receiv- ing bat a few hundred marks per an- nuin, whereas now be retaras as an honored and trusted legislator of the great republic, with au annual salary of over 20,000 marks. * ~“* |* Like faithful pilgrims, on reaching Cologue we repaired at once to her wonderful cathedral; this building, though commenced over six hundred years ago, was only completed within the last few years, It presented the singular phenomenon of a part having decayed while the other part Was un- der process of construction. We will not attempt a description of this edi- fice further than to remark that it is ‘adorned with over 5,000 pinnacles, arate flower; the beaatiful stained glass of its medisval windows affords an admirable opportunity of compar- ison with the finest work of the pres- ent day. We will now tell our little readers a story as told to us, and like all true stories it must have a proper begia- Bower |i adjoining room is one said to contain ‘ning.

In commeworation of this’ wonderful event statues of two white ‘horses were made and placed ia the identical position the horses occupied.

The beauty of the scenery, historical “associations and facilities for tiavel make the Rhine lone of the most attractive rivers in lworld. Itis estimated that overa | million persons pass up and down its | waters every season, and when we consider the amount of money each one must necessarily expend an idea may be formed of the revenue deriv- ed from this source alone, Yet this ' is by no means the ,ouly reliance, for ‘the numerous hills upon the banks are covered with vineyards, which produce the finest grapes, from which J the famous Rhine wines are made, a few selling as high as $800 a cask, and are difficult to procure at that price. In addition to this, fine marble and slate quarries are found in the- neighborhood, uud are extensively) worked. While numerous towns and | villages are dotted along the banks, we passed no city of importance until! we reache.| Cobelentz, at the conflu- | ence of the Rhine and the Moselle. This city is justly cousidered the must beautiful place on the river. We arrived here about 6 p. h., and during a drive we tovk through the} city crossed the Moselle over an old! brigge erected by the Romans, and afterwards drove through a beauti- ful park along the banks of the Rhine. Directly opposite’the city rises the imposing fortress of Ebrenbreitstein, which during all the sieges has vever been taken by direct assault. The garrison consists of 5,000 men, but it is capable of accommodating 100,000. = . " - Heidelberg is beaufully situated on the river Neckar.

In one room of its cellar we saw an immense cask wethought the largest in the world, but were mistaken, for in the 283,200 bottles or about 800 hogs- heads of wine and which has been filled several times. In front of this cask isa picture of the court jester who always drank from fifteen to eighteen bottles a day.

In addition there are beauti- ful drives, delightful baths, mineral springs and public halls of entertain- ment. Formerly this place was cele- brated for Sathag which was parti- cipated in by persons of all classes. The magnificent casino rented for over $50,000 a year.

Cox. oor or The Vain Old Woman. There was once an old woman 80 very | poor that she had no house, bat lived in of money lying in the road. Full of joy at her good fortune, she began to consider what she should bay with the money. “If I get anything to eat,” she said to herself, “I shall quickly devour it, and that will be the end of the matter. That ; will not do at all. If I buy clothes, peo- ple will call me proud, and that will not | do; and besides I have no closet to keep them in. Ah, Ihave it! I will buy a broom, and then everybedy that I meet will think that I have a house. A broom is the thing. A broom it shall be.” So the old woman went into the next town and bought a broom. She walked proudly along with her purchase, looking about her all the time te see if people noticed her avd looked envious, thinking of her house. But as no ove seemed to remark her she began to Le discontented with her bargain. “Does everybody have a house except me?” she said to herself, crossly. ‘I wish [had bought something else !” Presently she met a man carrying a small jar of oil. “This is what I want,” exclaimed the old woman ; “anybody cap have a house, but only the truly rich can have oil to light it with.” So she bartered her broom for the oil, and went on more proudly than ever, helding the jar so that all could see it. Still she failed to attract any particular notice, and she was once more discontent- ed. As she went moodily along she met a woman with a large buuch of flowers. _ “Here, at last, I have what I want,” the old woman thought. “If I can get these, all that see me will believe I am just getting my house ready for a bril- liant party. ‘Then they'll ve jealous, I hope.” So when the woman with the flowers caine close to her she offered her oil for them, and the other gladly made the change. “Now I am indeed fortunate she said to herself. ‘Now I am somebody !” Bat still she failed to attract attention, and, happening to glance at her old dress it suddenly occurred to her that she might be taken for a servant carrying flowers for her master. She was so much vexed by the thought that she flung the bouquet into the ditch, aud went home to her tree empty-handed. “Now I am well rid of it all,” she said to herself.— (Adapted from the German, by Arlo Bates, iv the August St. Nicho- ; i KLUTTZ & | cheap, with a fall assortment of sell, for we will do you good, - July 4th, 1883.- - They have just received a new supply of SUMMER Dry Goods, Notions, ClothinG, SHOnS AND HATS.

Fiekleness on the part of grooms and | biides, has been a fruitful source of hitches at the altar. There is a story told of a rustic swain, who, when asked whether he would take his partuer to be his wedded wife, replied, with shameful indecision, ‘Yes, I’m willin’; but Vd much rather lrave her sister.’ An equal- ly remarkable instance, which must be authentic, is narrated by a Bathgate min- ister. In this case a hiteh had occurred at the outset, throngh the absence of.wit- | nesses, and the bride had surmounted the difficulty by goiug for two friends, one of them being her cousin, a bloom- ing lass somewhat younger than herself. When, at length, the parties had been properly arranged, aud the minister was about to proceed with the ceremony, the bridegroom suddenly said: ‘Wad ye bide a wee sir?” ‘O, what is it now? asked | the exasperated clergyman. ‘Weel,’ re- plied the vacillating groom, ‘1 was just aun to say that if it wad be the same to you, I wad rather hae that ane’—pointing to the bridesmaid. ‘A most extraordina- ry statement to make at this stage ; I’m afraid it’s too late to talk of such a thing now.’ ‘Is it?’ returned the bridegroom in a tone of calm resignation to the inev- itable. ‘Weel, then, sir, ye maun just gang on.’ ‘The gentlemen who so ivopportunely declared bis preference for the sister of his bride is only one of many who have wade similarly eccentric replies to the all important question. Oue hasty indi-- vidual, on being asked if he would take the lady by his side to be his wife, testily responded: ‘In course I will; that’s what I came here for,’ Ou a recent oc- casion, an eccentric bridegroom, when juterrogated in the usual fashion as to the acceptance of his. bride, persisted in responding to the confusion and bewil- derment of the officiating clergyman, ‘Yes, for a fortnight ;’ a declaration which was the occasion of uno little treable and mately overconte. . We will conclude with a case in whieh a somewhat serious obstacle to the cele- bration of a marriage was removed at the eleventh hour by the intervention of a beneficent flash of clerical jealousy. In a western Scottish town, one eveniug, there were 80 many marriages that an unfortunate couple, who had arranged to be married at the minister's house, were unable to procure a cab to convey them thither till long past the hour appointed and when, at last, they stood at the door of the manse and rang the bell, it.was approaching widnight. A loud and some- what indignant voice presently respond- ed from a bedroom window up stairs, de- manding to know who was there. The situation was briefly explained; but the voice— that of Rev. Mr. W—, minister of the first charge of the Abbey Chureh proved inexorable. ‘I can’t help it,’ was the ultimatum reecived; ‘you must go home, and come back to-morrow.’ ‘O Mr. W—-, re ken we canna gang hame without beiv’ married,’ struck in a female voice. ‘But what would you have me do—call up the whole house because’ of your bungling ‘Could you no dae it over the window, sir? ‘Nonsense ; it is {m possible.’ ‘O, ye wmicht, sir; ye keo ake attend the Abbey on your day. and of assurance is best kept in binet of a human heart.—Watson. the perplexity, though the difficulty was alti- | of V as Ja no on Mr. B—’s.’ This final stroke “of policy proved irresistible, for bet ween —. -—_—— — ——_—__—_—_—~ Mr. W—— and Mr. B—minleter of the second charge of the same chureh, there existed a deal of professional jeal- ousy.

The Democracy of Virginia has ranged North Carolina in demanding the aboli- tion of the internal revenue system, and puts itself on record thus: We favor anconditional and immediate abolitien ef the internal revenue system —a nursery of spies and informers; a menace to the freedom of elections; an intolerable vurden on the taxpayers; a source of the greatest corruption, and in its practical operation is a special burden on this State and her interests. Here is multum in parvo, a pithy but comprehensive arrangement of a system which has nothing in it to commend it and everything to condemn. It is not only & nuisance, a breeder of corruption, and an engine of oppression, but it is a ma— chine through whose agency- the handful of men who boss it can bold possessien ‘of and contrel the destinies of the coun- try. In some of the States, especially in the South, it isa mighty power, being the life and soul of the Republican party and not only directing the organization, but managing the conventions, dictating who the candidates shall be, and sclect- ing delegates to National conventions. Thus the South was made solid for Grant inthe Chicage convention, and thas it will be made sulida year hence for Mr. Arthur or the candidate whom he favors. It is a powerful, an abeminable, a dangerous system. With but few ex- ceptions, if there be any, the men who are employed init are but the tools of the bosses who rule with an arbitrary sway, and obey the orders ef these bosses with the same unquestioning submission that the soldier does the commands of his officer, or the slave his master. It must be abolished.—Journal Observer. ————— EE Where the Bonds are Held. Philadelphia Times. In view of the fact that only afew years ago it was estimated that more than a thousand millions of United States Government bonds were held by foreign holders, a recent bulletin issued by the census department, showing the distri- bution of the registered bonds at the present time, is net without interest. The total amount of outstanding registered bonds is $1,773,749,925. Of these private individuals hold $417,538,850; savings banks, insarance and trast companies, $227,451,550 ; national banks, as securi- ty for circulation, $319,937,800, and for.- eign holders only $27,894,350. The figures given abové do not inclade the three and three and a half per cent. bonds, which were not classified and located atthe same time the bulletin was issued. : The interesting and gratifying feature of this exhibit, of course, is the fact that the bands are nearly all held by Ameri- cau holders atthe present time. Uni- formly good crops and a continued favorable balance of trade for the past few years have had the effect to bring these evidences of indebtedness into oar own hands again and relieve us asa pation from the loAd of foreign indebted- ness. The location of these bonds furnish an index of the relative accumulatien of surplus capital in the various sections of the country, Thirty six per cent. of the holders reside in New England, forty-two per cent. in the Middle States, three and ahalf per cent. in the South, fifteen per cent. in the Western States and three and ahalf per cent.in the Pacific States. Massachesetts contains the greatest num- ber of bondholders. New York stands secoud iu the dist, Peunsylvania third, Obio fourth and Ulinois fifth. Oregon evings op the rear, with only fourteen j bondholders. The District-of Columbia | in proportionto population bold more bonds than any of the States.

There may be no substantial foundation for the telegram announcing that the at- torney general is about tv enter on this new crusade—and we are the more in- clined to discredit it because Col. Keogh is too well-versed in politica to engage willingly in such an enterprise. Cal. Dockery gave a notice of contest, but as we understand it he failed to cite a single case where any fraud was prac- ticed and eventually abandoned his un- founded pretentions to an election. There were two errors made in adding up the retarns by the county canvassers, but these errors were against the Demo- crats and in favor of Dockery. There was also a precinct return that was not brought in; but this was also a Demo- cratic loss and made in fuvor of Dockery. The culpabie officers in that case ought, however, to be made to suffer, not be- cause there was any fraud intended or perpetrated, but because election officers ought to realize that the law lLolds them to the very. strictest performance of their duties.

Journal-Observer, A report that the Richmond & Dan- ville railrond had been sold again, this time to the East Tennessee, Virginia & Georgia road, has been canvassed about town for a couple of days past, and has excited a good deal of interest among the business men of the city. If the trunsac- tion is true, it is an important one for ‘this section. This is what gave rise to the report: On the 18th instant the board of directors of the Richmond & Daaville Railroad company ordered a meeting of the stockholders to be called on September 12th for the purpose of voting on the question of increasing the capital stock of the company te $7,000,000 it being now $5,000,000, in a day or two after this action Richmond and Danville stock took a jump and advanced 10 or 12 points, Onthe 18th it was quoted in New York at 60, and on the’ 23d it was quoted at 72. It is said that as much as 26,000 shares changed hands, which. is about 1,000 more than the controlling in- terest. How an increase of stock is to in- crease the value of shares is one of thase things that no man can explain, except by the. peculia.‘ and mysterious ethics of Wall street, which does not asa _ general thing, square with the philosophy of bu- sivess. It is said that a stroug mivority in the board oppose any increase of stock. (It is also rumored that George Scott, who votes the controlling interest, is opposed to the action of the beard in preposing to increase the capital and that he will vote against it at the stockholders’ meet- ing. The Richmond State received a dispatch from Saratoga, N. Y., under date of July 28th, which stated that ‘the Seeney syn- dicate, composed of George I. Seeney, George F. Baker, E. D. Fahinestock, Cal- vin S. Brice, William P. Clyde and Gen- eral E. T. Thomas, have purchased the controlling interest in the Richmond and Danville road. It is to be consolidated with the East Tennessee, Virginia avd Georgia. This will give four thousand miles of road under one management, and is the most important transaction thatever took place in southern rail- roads.” Col. A. S. Buford, president of the Richmond.& Danville, isin New Yark. The above telegram was show to Col. A. L. Rives, second vice-president of the company, who told ths State reporter that he knew nothing about the matter ; that the report might be true or it might not ; it was the first intimation that he had of any such transaction. The Rich- mond and Danville and the East Tennes- see, Virginia and Georgia are competing systems, the first having what is known as the Piedmont Air-Line and the latter the Kennesaw route which is a big North and Sonth line, When the Stewarts and other capital- ista of Richmond, says the State, were in the Richmond & Danville pool the road was known as a Richmond institution. But since they sold out and their shares fell into the hands of Northern capitalists very little has been known in that city of the -‘inside workings” of the company, The Richmond and Danville, like other railroads in the country, is now controll- ed in Wall street, and is used as a foot- ball fer speculators, which makes it dif- ficult to ascertain the trath of the vari- ous reports eminativg from that quarter. The Seeney syndicate is the same syn- dicate that is behind the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia Railroad, and is ithe most powerful organization that has ever yet taken hold of Southern roads. Seeney, Brice and Thomas represent the Seeney combination and the Metropolitan Nafional Bank ; Scott is of the firm of George S. Scott & Co.; Baker and Fahne- stock represent the First National Bank of New York, while Clyde is of the great shipping house of William P. Clyde & Co. =) Capt.

Miss Swartz was killed instantly; Welch ‘witha part of the vehicle was dragged about 400 yards and was dead when found, and Mrs. Welch lived only about 20 minutes. Welch was terribly mangled. The engineer whistled to warn the occupants of the wagon, but Welch tried to whip his’ horse across the track. Rateten, N.

The frequent notices in your paper recently of the dreaded scourge, the cholera, remind me of an article which appeared about twenty years ago on this subject. It was a statement made by a missiopary said to be every way trust- worthy, and was to this effect: While the cholera was prevailing fatally in the Island of Mauritius there was one plan- tation employing about five bundred workmen upon which nota case occurred This exemption was said to have been secured by the use of a spoonful of -char- coal given in the coffee every other morning. The writer went on to state that this had been found effectual not only asa preveutive, but in many cases as a remedy for the disease—in some even when iv a state of collapse. The value of charcoal as a corrective of acidity and as an absorbent of noxious gases is well known. It is used to pre- vent aud correct putrefaction. I will only add that since reading tho statement referred to I have used it in a great many cases both for myself and others in colics, cholera morbus, bowel affections and such like with the greatest success. It affords relief in nausea, sick headache, sour stomach, &c., generally very promptly. It will be found in all drug stores pre- pared for use finely pulverized. A few drops of water should be first dropped upon the powder, and this rubbed into a paste, when more water can be added, otherwise it would float upon the water. The simplicity of this prescription may lead some to despise it, bat not those who have tried it. Naaman thought very contemptuously of the Prophet's direc- tion to wash seven times in Jordan, but when he washed he was healed of his leprosy. Very respectfully yours, WHITEFOORD SMITH. Spartanbarg, S.C, July 24, 83. a Swimine in HiGH ALTitTupEs.—Ten- derfeet should know, says the Cheyenne (Wyoming) Leader, and all others should not forget, that it is more difficult to keep afloat in water in this altitude than in a less altitude. That accounts for the nu- merous cases of drowning, even in com- paratively small streams. . Young men who could swim with facility in the East have found out to their sorrow, and too late, that they could not do the same here. The light atniosphere considerably redu- ces the buoyant power of water. This is the case to a remarkable degree on Lake Tahoe, the highest body of water on the continent. In this water even pine wood sinks, and when a man is drowned his body never rises. These whohave threshed out their wheat express themselves pleased with the yield. So far we have heard no com- plaints,—Darie Times, Dan- | exchange, duty, hence we give it as follows : | newspaper when you feel disposed, upon the payment of all arrearages. Do not hesitate to do so on account of “tender- ness” for the editor. Don’t you suppose meat, or clothing, dry goods, etc., if he thought he was net getting hia mon- ey’s worth, and why should you not exercise the same privilege with him? and when you discontinue a paper, do so manfally. Don’t be so spiteful as to throw it back tothe postmaster witha cen- temptuous “I don’t want this paper any longer!” and have “refused” written on the margin, and have the paper returned to the editor. No gentleman _ ever stop- ped in that way, no matter if his head is covered with gray hairs that should: be honorable. If you do not longer wish to receive the paper, write a note to the editor like a man, saying so—and be sure that arrearages are paid. This is the way to stop a newspaper. Do not take the paper for twoor three years without paying one ceut, and when the editor needs a little money for his labor, say you dou’t want the’ paper any longer; this is mean, it’s dishonest. DIPHTHERIA: The latest and most successful ‘treatment for this dreaded disease has lately come to our knowl x and having interviewed the man who says his life was saved by the new treatment we feel confident it is our duty to give the facts to our readers, that they may inv te for themselves.

The above remarkable ex- perience led us to Investigate further, and we found that Kendalls Spavin Cure has the most remarkable effect on human flesh of any remedy of which*we have ever heard, and have become convert- ed to the opinion that no remedy has ever been dis- covered which possesses such remarkable qualities for the diseases of man as wellas beast.

Sni- der was startled yesterday by the explo- sion of a small dynamite torpedo which he was carrying in one of the pockets of his pants. He escaped with a slight bruise in the groin, and two or three abrasions of the arm which bled pretty freely. Some pieces of silver money in his pecket were twisted out of shape by the force of the explosion, and these, it js thought, saved him from more serious damage. o———— Something quite ivteresting in the way of trials for violation of the revenue laws were veing heard before Commision- er M. L. Holmes, yesterday and day be- fore. Mr. Dolph Heilig was bound over to the Federal court on the charge of unusual laxness in the discharge of his duties as store keeper. It appearing from the evidence that he had suffered the ca pacity of the still to be very materially increased without the governments know!l- edge erconsent; and also that he was avery secretand very dark partner in the distillery. Mr. Kluttz the distiller was also tried and bound over. Friends ueed not be solicitous for their welfare, tor they are republicans in good standing and will, therefore never meet the pun- ishment prescribed fyr the offense. oO The Southern Telegraph Company have opened up their oftice here and Mr. Moore, a late Western Union Operator, presides over the wires. The building se- cured by them is the best for the purpose in Salisbury, and a neater and tidier of- tice would be hard to find. One set of instruments are clicking away on the desk, and avother has been shipped and will be placed shortly. It is understood that the two wires already in operation will be supplemented with two more ina few days, as a force is already on the way with them. The wires of this Company connect with the American Rapid, the Baltimore and Ohio, and the Merchants’ and Bankers’ at Richmond and Wash- ington, thus giving Salisbury communpi- cation with all points North and West. The Cotton Future reports were deliver- ed at this office in five minutes after the operator at New York tickled the wires. A uniformed messenger boy will deliver all messages, and in many other ways the Company mean to work a reform, in order that business men may have the utmest facilities for rapid communication. The Charlotte and Concord offices will be ready for work in a very shert while. A force is already at work on the Char- lotte, Columbia aud Augusta branch. —_— o—— Splendid Success. Mr. J. D. Stewart, of Dunn’s Mountain Mine, having invested pretty heavily in a steam traction engine and an improved thresher, placed them in the hands of Mr-Charles Beaver to manage, and Mr. Beaver has just returned from his thresh- ing campaign and reports 27 days out, 64 crops threshed, aggregating a grand total of 12,800 bushels of grain. The engine aud machine have sustained little dam - age, and the resnit, as we learn, is highly satisfactory to tue public as well as the projector of this most useful enterprise. We are pleased to learn that Mr. Stewart has another and not less useful project on foot which will go into opera- tion in a few days. He _ proposes, ‘not to lay up his engine to rust and wait for the next crop, but has ordered a portable saw mill of the latest improved patern, and will send it and his sceam engine to apy farmer’s house and cut up all the timber he wishes sawed, just as was done in threshing. This will save the heavy labor of hauling logs to, and’ lumber from the mill. It will be a new thing in Rowan, and we doabt not will become immensely popular. Tle @sual rates of 50 eccnts per 100 feet, or one half the lumber sawed, will be charged for the services, which is certainly a clean gain of a great deal in labor and time to those who want sawing done. Get your loge W4+ll buy a lot suita-Qrendy and send for the mill is rather clanging the programme, but change is tue order of the day. ago, not 50] 20 loog bat that it may be remembered, several young ladies determined on a practical joke. They made a nice medi- am sized snake of black calico, and tying a jerk-string to its bead, placed it on the corner of the street under the gaslight. They awaited the result on a portico fa- vorably situated. A merchant came hastily down the street, saw the spake, and with a startled expression and nerv- ous motion he hurled stone at this sub- tle deceiver of mankind. But the subtle deceiver escaped in the grass. Next came & young lawyer. He regarded the reptile for a moment and promptly stepped for- ward and began a vigorous assault with his cane. The snake, he afterwards told, “was a peculiar one, differing from all others from the fact that it could leap quite a distance without the assistance of ita coil.” He tried hard to kill it, but it escape him in the grass. The next passer by was a gray-headed lady’s man. He carried a cane also, and began the chase lively, calling for a light at every blow, and running the snake throagh the erack of a fence. He struck seyeal match- es, but could not find the snake. Next— they have it whispered that an editor came along, that he heaved a hage stone, and the snake went on; and that he said a profanity and did like the snake, went on. This part of the story has not been credited at all. The man for whom the snake was made was next on deck. He was ho spring chicken; for his No. 48 coat opened in the back the first lick he made at the snake. He had given it a powerfal blow. It began to retreat in short spas- motic jumps. He struck another blow and saw the snake moving off as if crip- pled. Regarding it a moment he exclaim- ed: “Why, d— it; can’t I kill it?” and again he made for it, beating the ground awful pelts until the snake again escaped throngh the fence. The-merry langh of some half dozen girls inside the yard, proved too much for him. They had heard him, and he felt so badly. No, he could not come in! When he gets excit- ed now he counts ten before speaking, and his friends have noticed a thange iv his lauguage for the better. “I'll never cuss another snake” ‘is among his cata- logue of vows, for next January the first, a —-— 0—_ — PROGRAMME Or THE ANNUAL MEETING OF THE Row- AN County Sunpay Scuoor ATION, Associ- St. Enoch’s Church, Aug. 16th and 17th, 1888.

Mr. Lanier bas sunk a shaft 45 feet deep on the lode, which is a well defined quartz vein carry- ing auriferous pyrite, and is of high grade; showing free gold in ordivary panning, This is only ove of the many discoveries that are to be made in this county. ~~ CroweELt Ming, July 31, 1883. Dear Mr. Bruner : You are mistaken in regard to the work now beiug done at this mine. It is not ‘purely a work of development.” Weare taking out ore every day, and ranning it through the mill. We have encountered a large bedy of ore in the old drift of ve- ry high grade. Last’ week we struck a new streak richer than any yet taken from the mine, and it daily improves in size and value. I picked up two pieces from-the ore dump without special care, and had them assayed, and to my aston- ishwent they yielded $2600 per ton. The ore now coming oat is still better. N. B. McC. ee Iredell County Minerals. To those unacquainted with the facts, Iredell county has been rated low among the mineral producing counties of the State. But a brief glance at the facts will convince the skeptic at onec, while the scientist will declare it a veritable bo- vanza,. Iron ore exists in several forms: Mag- netite, linonite and hematite, but is not worked. Corundum is found—all- celors —scattered in the soil in the eastern and northeastern portions of the county. It is gathered in considerable quantities by the country people and sold to parties who ship it to the markets, where it is manufactured into corundum wheels, &c. | (If you never saw a corundum wheel, go | to a first-class dentist to have your teeth | filed apart, and you'll aftirm it’s a six- teen-horse thresher in full blast.)

SAL SSS SE TT DANISH BARQUE RIALTO. Then, there is the sun-stone, On the Voyage from Boston, Mass., to- ward Port Elizabeth, Cape of Good Hope, Ap’r 1cth, °83. 2° S.—Lon, 34° 59’ W. Dat. 197 7 This letter, commenced in mid-ocean, when the yoyage is not half completed, and the stormiest part. still lies before us, is intended as an evidence of my unbounded faith in the sea- worthy qualities of the Rialto, and my unswerv- ing confidence in the successful termina- tion of this voyage. Wehave now beep at séa forty-six days, and 1 suppose that at least thirty more will elapse ere our arrival at Port Elizabeth. We have, so far, had a yery conimon-place, average voyage—experienced two or three very respectable gales in and about the Gulf Stream, none of them however to be com- pared to our West India hurricane, (I have. adopted that asthe standard for judging the merits of all futare atmos- pherical disturbances.) * * © By some unfortunate oversight I neglected to provide a stock of reading matter before leaving Boston. At first I was iu despair. However, upon overhauling the chest of books, loaned to the vessel for two years, by se “Am. Seaman’s Friend Association,” 1 discovered two gems. “Life and Letters of Lord Macauley” by his nephew Trevelyan, andthe “Life aud Works of Charles Dickens.” While reading the latter I felt as if perusing the tilated quartz eryatals (tine and rare, some | : . : l ; ( , | dark so that we could get a bearing of a f Ht $ L i l l of the “Storm Fiend” upon oar S The cute old birds ‘g up’ the meat with gusto, and wink knowingly hooks.

Last night after we came te anchor and farled ones, the bottom of the day’s Lat. Lon. and _ ship’s nm usually stand. I saw, “Port Elizabeth—from port to port 73 days, six hours. All well.” These are simple words, but te me the speak volumes. They tell of loads of care removed, of weary waiting at an end, of battling with stofmy seas and baffling winds finished, of a ful resting in the quiet haven. It is almost worth ones while to make a long, stormy passage in order to appreeiate the blissful sensation of rest and relief from anxiety which comes when it is accomplished. Since writing the first part of this letter we have had some very bad weather, ac- companied by tremendous seas waves, the like of which are not.to be seen in any other part of the world, they are positively frightfal and awe-inspiring. Off the Cape of Good Hope, where the Brazilian, Agulhas or Indian Ocean and Guinea currents meet we had some ter- rific electrical storms, which, above all others, I dread. No seamanship can avert the danger in these streams. There are three chances to one that the ship will be struck. The compass too gets excited and cuts some curious capers, sometimes pointing North, sometimes South, at other times flying around like a wheel of fortgne. Thursday, May 10th, we thought we saw land, but it was very indistinct. The same day we had the hardest gale that we experienced the whole voyage and were blown off to sea. About 4 a.m. Friday, being my watch on deck, I determined to steer on our course again. The sky avore the appearance it generally does after a he@avy gale, hazy, with low lying banks of’cloud. The whole after- noon we ran along before the gale at.a spanking rate. No laud sighted though we kept a constant lookout at the mast head. This puzzled us considerably for according to observation and dead reck- onipg we ought not to have been more than twenty miles from Cape St. Francis. About 1 P.M., as I was looking at the clouds, I saw’ land, not where we had been expecting but towering high abeve the clouds, scemingly overhanging us, great 7000 feet giants, scorning to hide their heads under a veil of fog! In about an hour the fog cleared off and sunlight burst upon the picture. It was a grand sight and I think would even have entranced ove who had not been at sea two and a half months. ‘lo me it seemed a glimpse of heaven. The great African continent lay before us. ‘Thé coast, as far as the eye could reach, was a range of mountains, some of them attaining a heigth of 8,000 feet. From where our vessel lay these moun- tains did not look barren or jagged, but beautiful blne, syinmetrical domes. The {land we saw was Cape St. Fraucis, just sixty miles west of Cape St. Recife where Port E. lies. The mountains were the Uteuhage range. We were pretty cer- tain of our position then, but to ‘make assurauce doubly sure’ we ‘lay to’ until light on Cape St. Francis, This we ac- |cordingly did, and then, giving the old Rialto every stitch of canvass she could carry, by daylight we were in sight of Cape Recife. About 10 a. m. the pilot came on board. He is an ex-Confederate and so are several of his crew, men who preferred exile in a foreign land to seeing the conqueroi’s heel upon their own. | Oue of them—a Scotchman—had fought in the defense of Fort Fisher, served un- der Semmes, and been at the taking of Port Royal. When the war was over he came gut.here in a little oyster catcher of only sixty tons. All day Saturday we lay in full view of the town in a dead calm. Towards nightfall a breeze arose and by six p. m. we were at anchor. The Capt. of the Port, Inspector General, Health officer, aud various other petty dignitaries came on board to examine our papers, and congratulate us on a prospereus voyage. This is a quiet, peaceful, sunny day. The bright, blue waters of Algoa Bay are scarcely disturb- ed by aripple. I can hardly realize that thirty-six hours ago the waves of the same ocean were tunnjng mountain high and threatening to crush the ship that struggled in their midst. But it is not always quiet even here. The bare ribs aud decaying fragments of numerous wrecks ou the beach bear sad testimony to what has beev. The warnings of the port officers tell us what may happen again. ‘Destruction comes with the Souch east wind,” say these croakers. “Lookout that the bones of your ship do not not mingle with those of the ether nnfortunates.” = © . © We are lying about a mile from land and have part of the town in full view. The largest and finest part lies behind the hill. I am quite favorably impressed with what I have seen. There are broad streets, fine stone houses, numerous handsome churches aad pablic buildings. There are beautiful green parks and squares dotted about over the town. Port Elizabeth contains a heterogeneous population, and this fact is apparent iv the architecture. Looking at the sub- stantial stone buildings,- green parks, and the funny looking little English lo- comotives that go rasbing along the shore dragging their equally fanny look- ing train of carriages behind them, ove is reminded of the great nation whose flag floats above the citadel. The hay stack leoking Kraals or Kaffir huts clis- tering abont the suburbs, and that por- tion of the town devoted to them remind us of the aboriginal inhabitants from whom the couostry was wrested. The numerous convents, cathedrals, crosses, ete., tell of the early Portugese explorers; of the brave young Vasco de Gama, the first European whose eyes rested upon this land, and- who named the storm promontary, at its extremity ‘Cabo Buono Spe,” because it cheered his heart with hopes of great diseoveries in the far Cathay! Lastly, some queer old houses meworics of an old friend, How many standing with their gables to the street, ‘l i t ‘at the , y | names, speak to see it, on the horizon, [ ROLLS, CRUSHERS, utterly “sour kraut” the who occupy an intermediate place in the histery of the country, 4 There are a many vessels at an- chor in the harbor.

When a mere child, father’s house had been broken into and robbed, and the remembrance of the excitement of that time was too strong to be ever. effaced. And ever since she bad had a house of her own, she had been expecting a similar oc currence, Not a night passed that she didn’t look in the closet or under the bed and her husband jokingly declar- ed that she even examined the soap- dish and match safe in the expecta- tion of beholding a fierce robber con- cealed therein ! She was indeed a timid little body, starting nervously at the slightest sound, always on the lookout for “signs,” and uow and then, when “i}ue’ and depressed, declaring that “she had a preseutiment.” ‘{ believe something is gving to | happen to-night, William,’ she said, ‘ate one summer evening, as she sat lon the edge of the bed and anbattoned her shoe. ‘I have had such a heayy, | weighed-down feeling all the after- | noon.’ ‘You coop yourself up too much, imy dear.

Coaxing, commands and even the whip availed nothing. Balky and de- termined, he would uot pass the un- kvown object. ‘Blast the creature! What ails him? He’s never acted so’ before,” Martin exclaimed. ‘Don’t whip him again! He's frightened. He sees something in the bushes. I know he does —I see it my- srif—it’s something white.’ ‘A garment blown from a clothes- line. Or maybe it’s a Lewspaper.

Now, Mr. Perkins was not @ ner- yous man, but his predicament at this particular minute was not very pleas- ant. ‘The thought of his scant attire Glled him with consternation, And there she—a fine, modest young lady! —wus every moment drawing nearer and nearer. A mortifying discovery was inevitable! The only alternative was to take refuge in flight, The next instant young Martin and Miss Dora were startled at seeing a tall white figure spring from behind ‘Not Dow’t leave the horse ! too nervous, bles. : nighteap strings. ‘Well, let them come!’ husband, coolly, as he laid his tired |head on the pillow. ‘They've been leoming ever sinec we've been married and kept house, and tiat’s—let me} ee—nine years in June.

No haman burglar, indeed, but instead aj small and white animal, a weasel or a cat—which, Mr. Perkins jcould not tell. Bat the animal, what-| lever it) was, had one of his young | | Plymouth Rock chickens in its mouth, ‘Lhe pesky thing,’ muttered Mr. \Perkins. ‘I wonder if I can catch lit? And he started away iu pursuit. Down the garden walk went the \thief—out under the front gate and ‘across the read, Regardle-s of the } Site ‘stones and mud, and of his own scant jattire, Mr. Perkins followed.

Fortunately, the culprit be only acat.

Ten chances to one it’s burglar up to some deviltry. Um going to shoot at him—that’s what I lam! For, knowing that he would have to ride five miles over a lonely road, and having his mind somewhat exer- cised by the reports of there being burglars about, Harry Martin had that evening taken the precaution to bring a revolver with him. Drawing this out now, he cried, excitedly : ‘Speak, or V’Il shoot ? Unfortunately, Mr. Perkins was a little bit deaf, and, in his trepidation, did not hear what was said. His on- ly desire was to get within the shelter of his own house. For several yards along the fence there grew a row of brier-roses, and here he floundered, the sharp thorns clinging to his gar- ment and laccrating his flesh, as he vainly strove to find some opening through which he might climb over. Just as he put one foot on the rail in the act of leaping over, he heard the report of the pistol and felt ashot stinging in the fleshy part of his leg. Groaning with pain, he sank upon the grass. ‘Good heavena, Dora, it’s Mr. Per- kins himself ? young Martin exclaim- ed, overcome with horror and dismay. The confusion of the next hour may he easily imagined. Dora rushed up to the house. She was met at the door by Mrs. Perkins, whose alarm at the long absence of her husband had been increased by the report of the pistol. Fortunately the little woman acted like many other nervous peo- ple, who, weak at imaginary dangers, are strong in time of real trouble ; and, repressing her emotion, she calm- ly assisted Mr.. Martin and Dora in bringing in the helpless body of her husband. But an hour later, when Mr. Per- kins lay comfortably in bed, rejoicing But just at this instant, around a curve in the road, not more than a dozen rods away, was heard the sound of horse’s hoofs and carriage wheels, The moon threw a_ broad, white light upon the road, aud Mr. Perkins knew that he could not reeross with- out being seen by the occupants of the approaching vehicle. According}y, he darted behind aclump of elder bushes, and, crouching down, waited in breathless anxiety. f ‘Jerusalem !’ he muttered to higi- self, ‘This is a pretty pickle for a deacon of the church to be in!’ Nearer and nearer came the car- } | in the assurance that the wound was trifling, his wife could not help say- ing, as she sank into an easy-chair beside him: ‘I knew that something would hap- pen toenight! What do yuu think of my presentiment now, Mr. Perkins ?’ — Tue Pine Harr INpustry.—Mr. Robt Gray at McAgen's drug store, yesterday received a sample of pine hair from the Acme Manufacturing company, on the Carolina Central road. This is one of the new industries that has lately sprung up in this State, and a most profitable one. The hair is made by ranning the riage, the horse jogging along at a funeral rate—evidently the driver was in no hurry. __ There were two persons in the car- riage. The moonlight fell full on their faces, and Mr. Perkins, peering thro’ the bushes, recognized Henry Martin, a \tkely young farmer of the vicinity, and Dora Saunders his sweetheart. It may be well to state just here that the two were returving from a party at which, for a wonder, fair Dora bad ordinary pine needles through a certain process, and shipped to the furnitare factories North by the car loads. The demand for it is inexhaustible, It is equal to or superior to moss for stuffiug sofas, etc., and brings & good price. The necdles are first boiled, by which process the oil is extracted from theur, after which they are ran through a stringing machine that cuts them into hair.

No family should be without ALLCOCK'S Porous PLAsTERS; their healing powers are wonderful and their efficacy far-reaching and lasting. For years past I have secn and knewn them to cure and relieve the most obstinate and distressing cases of rheumatism, kidney complaint, bronchitis, neuralgia, lumbago, inflamation of the lungs and throat, paralysis, asthma, spinal weakness, and coughs and colds. In my own case they afforded me almost instant and permanent relief. My friends consider them an invaluable and speedy remedy 10. all kinds of aches and pains. They are « blessing in disguise; and no wife or mother should be without them if sle values her peace and comfort and freedom from ner- vous exhaustion and other ailments. As a strengthening plaster, also for backaches and weakness, they have no equal. I have never yet found a plaster so efficacious and stimulating, or to give so much general sat, jsfaction. Used in connection with Bran-— DRETH'S universal life-giving and life-heal- ing Pri1s, no one need despair of a speedy restoration to good sound health. MRS. E, TOMPKINS.

Cargo is landed in the sarf, and carried ashore on the shouldera of naked Kaffirs, I think ¢be first thing that attracts ones attention on ‘landing in Port E., is the great variety of natiouali- ties represented on the quay. The pop- ulation is made up of stragglers from the four quarters of the globe. Swarthy Arabs from Zanzibar, handsome Hipndeoo | men from Bombay and Calcutta, Malay /women from the East ludies, almend- eyed Chinese—wild-looking fellows from the interior—and big, strapping, ugly Zulus and Kaffirs, are all to be seen here. | 1 never before saw sach a medley. Be- ‘sides those I have enumerated, I think I have met representatives from every ‘country in Europe. Such a lot of _churehes as there are here! Every Pro- testant denomivation, Jewish synagogue, | Hidoo mosque, Roman Catholic cathedral ‘and Chinese joss house. The Kaffir lan- | guage is very gonerally spoken, both by natives and by the European residents | who pick itup. (I tried to “pick it up” , too, but could not. It is too heavy.) Most of the newspapers are published in Dutch }and English, as the Boers do not coude- scend to learn any other thav their na- tive language. : : . | I was told that the park was well worth | a visit, and accordingly started in that direction. I met a team ceming from the diamond wives, and stopped to gaze at ithe huge wagon drawu by twenty-two | ballocks, driven by a band of wild look- ) ing natives, their heads decorated with feathers and their bodies decorated a la /Adam. A little farther on I was pearly run over by a floek of ostriches which | were being driven down to the quay to be shipped to New Zealand. This caus- | ed another gazing delay, By the time I got under way aguin for the park a crowd of Parsee women came clattering along | with their wooden sandals, and bright | colored tarbans, snowy silken robes and | mufied faces—again I had to ‘heave to.’ “The Park” had begun to lose some of | its attractions, but I struck out manfully | and was beginuing to congratulate my- 'selfon escaping further temptation to loiter, when a party of tiger hunters came dashing down the street on horse- iback. <A band of howling, singitg Za- |lus in their war paint followed with a magniticent tiger on a bamboo. litter.

On board the Rialto we are werking hard. getting the ship ready for the lung North- ward voyage. * * © A bran new steamer, the Hawarden Castle arrived at Cape Town yesterday, having made the trip from England in nineteen days, in- cluding a stoppage at Madeira and one at St. Helena. When we get around the Cape the worst is over. It sometimes occupies ove-third of the time just going from here to a few miles west of the Cape. We did it in forty eight hours coming out, but the wind always blows the same way there and alas for the “homeward beund,” that way is from W. tto'E. The only way to get around from E. to W. is (omake fast sails and drift around with the. current, This. current runs against thé wind as from East to West, and, strange to say, tle harder the wind | blows- from the West the stronger the current rnns to the West. This differ- - ~ ence of opinion between the wind and the water is the cause of the frightfal storms and high seas which have made this Cape such a bugbear. We could not have desired finer weath- er than wehave had bere. It has not rained since we arrived but the dew-fall is very heavy. The sun shines warm during the day, bat the mornings and nights are perfectly splendid, and they call this Winter. It is latitude South, corresponding to that of Wilmington North. June Ist.—Yesterday I went to the ostrich and ostrich feather market. There were several hundred of the birds walking quietly around, ‘gobbling uy’ old horse shoes, door knobs, broken bottles and other delicacies. The ostrich market is not a healty locality for dogs, as the ostritehes seew to take special delight in making life a burden for those animals. Sometimes a bird will quietly approach a dog from the rear, then suddenly reach down and bite his tail off. Again an os- trich, with au iunocent expressiov of countenance, will walk up te an unsas- pecting-canine, eye him mildly for a mo— ment, then wheel around and give him a kick that seuds bim yelping clear across the house. Then the dog leaves,but he also leaves a good deal of hair,hide, blood and canine imprecations behind him. Nearly all ostriches are treacherous, and many accidents occar persons going among the droves. Even those accus— tomed to them are sometimes attacked. An ostrich’s manner of attacking a man is to rush suddenly up behind him, knock him down, and trample upou him. In the same room were long tables covered with bundles of ostrich feathers. are sold at auction and shipped to Eng- land. They generally bring about $75 per pound, but the prices vary greatly, according to the quality, The feathers of the tame birds being generally worth twice as much as those of the wild oves.

I went hunting the other day with some English captains, and shot a beautiful little deer called a ‘‘bush-bok,” Last Sunday night we had our first rain. It blew and rained fearfully. Most of our men were ashore on liberty, and I had to take watch from 8 p. m. to 12.30 a. m. Iwas soaked through and through ip spite of my oil skius, and wearly blown off my feet sometimes. Before the rain caine the sand from the deserts around the town was blown over the harbor un- til the ship’s deck was covered an inch or two deep.

AN OLD ROMANCE, The Tale of Riviere’s Life and Love. From the New Orleans Democrat. Yesterday, intently gazing into a show window on Canal street, a feeble, white-haired old gentleman recalled memories of a tragedy which, in the harly-burly of iife, seem to have pas- sed into oblivion. In 1841, outside of the city proper, there was, perhaps, no more delight- ful place of resort than at the Bayou Bridge. It was par excellence the great suburban attraction at the time, and between beating parties on the waters of the bayou and card reunions over the tables of old Barleduc’s gam- bling saloon out there, the jeunesse doree of New Orleans of that day managed quite comfortably to while away many a leisure mouent. Possi- bly notwo young men enjoyed the quiet hospitality of Barleduc more than Al- phonse Riviere and Henri Delagrave; in fact most of their afternoons were spent in the dimly lighted saloon of {the old gamester, at whose shrine all the card-loving clement of the city paid homage. Riviere was a dashing fellow of 22, with a large estate in the parish of St. James, and a round account in the old Uniou bank. He had passed suc- cessfully through the Ecole Polytech- nique in France and taken a bout in Algeria and returned to Louisiana as accomplished and companionable a geutlerson as one could wish to chat with. He was fund of his horses, his wine and a quiet game of cards. Re- fined in his manner and dignified in fis deportmenf, he was a warm favor- ite wherever he went, and his entry into old Barledue’s establishment was aluwys the signal for a cordial greet- ing from all who might be present. On this particular Jone afternoon Riviere, with the activity of a gymnast leaped from his buggy in front of the saloon, and throwing the reins to his negro servant, told him to drive to the shade of the pecan trees in the yard. Switching a delicate ivory- headed cane with a nervous, jerky motion, he crossed the broad gallery, and unannounced entered the gum- bling room. Most of the players were wrapped tp attention to the game, but one there was who turned his head at the entrance of the last comer. This was Delagrave. He felt that a crisis was at hand, but even with this knowledge he did not strive to elude is coming. ‘That morning he had been accepted as the betrothed lover of Mme. Celestin, one of the most beautiful and wealthy widows of the lower coast, and Riviere, who had been for the past year her most de- voted admirer, was left to nurse his disappointment as an unsuccessful suitor. Riviere had bad no hesitancy in letting the world know that he wanted to marry the coquettish wid- ow, and further, he, in a very plain way, gave people the information that he did not want tnterlopers paying their devoirs at the same shrine. These matters ure hard to arrange exactly as one would wish. Ove finds much difficulty in closing all avenues of approach, for love is not unlike light which the photograper in his dark reom finds s» much difficulty in keeping out. It steals in under doors, through nail holes and even down the chimney. At least so it had been the case at Mme. Celestin’s, for jealous and watchful of rivais as Riviere was, Delegrave had made the conquest un- der the very eyes of the enemy, and the widuw had that day so informed the unsuccessful suitor. Riviere was very pale as he ap- proached the group of men around the table. With the yellow light shining through the curtains and his bloodless appearance, he seemed rath- er a ghastly corpse than a living body, but there were motion and voice in him which soon dispelled such an il- lusion, As he neared Delagrave the latter turned to confront him, when Riviere, with a voice that seemed to come from behind the door of a tomb, said, “Del- agrave, we cannot live on this globe together; it is not large enough,” Delagrave, quietly puffing his cig- arette, in acold aud impressive tone replied: “Yes; you annoy me—it would be better if you were dead.” Riviere’s face fluslied, and reaching forward laid the back of his band gently against Delagrave’s cheek. The game was at once interrupted. The slap, which was so light it did not even crimson the young man’s cheek, was enough to call tor blood, and leaving the house he sought an inti- mate friend; to him he opened his heart. It must be a battle a |’out- rance. Such was the enmity between himself and Riviere, only a life could wipe it oat. ‘The old doetor, who had grown up, it might be said, on the field, shrugged his shoulders and re- monstrated, but at last acquiesced and said: “Very well, then; it shall be to the death.” Few people knew what sort of a party it was driving down the shell- of extra wheat and threshed out thirty- | road bordering Bayou St. Jobn. Two five.—-Darie Times. carriages stopped “just on the bridge gentlemen alighted, Saville, a well known character here forty years ago, accompanied Riviere, fe Dr, Roe- quet was with Delagrave. The sec- onds had met previously and arrang- ed everything. Delagrave as he step- ped from the carriage looked furtive- ly around for the cases of pistols, but seeing none he was a little disconcert- ed. After walking about 100 yards from the carriages, the party stopped and the doctor motioned them to ap- proach closer. When they had done 20, he called them by name and said : “Gentlemen, we have discussed fhis matter nearly all of last night, and both Mr. Saville and myself feel sat- isfied that there is no solution to the of one. The world is so formed that both cannot live in it at the same time.” The two nodded. “Therefore,” the doctor went on, “we have agreed to make the arbitrament as fair as is pos- sible, and let fate decide.” He took out a black morocco case, and from it produced a pill-box containing four pellets. “One of these,” said he, “‘con- tains a positively fatal dose of prassic acid, the other three are harmless. We have agreed that each shall swal- low two of the pills, and let destiny decide.” Saville inclined his head, and said, as the representative of Riv- iere, he agreed. The two men were pale, almost bloodless, but not a nerve trembled or a muscle contracted. “Gentlemen,” said the doctor, “we will toss for the first pill.’ Saville cried out, “tails,” as the glittering gold piece revolved in the air. © It fell ina bunch of grass; the blades of which being separated showed the coin with the reversed head of the Goddess of Liberty uppermost. “Mr. Delagrave, you have the first choiee,” said the doctor. Reposing in the little box the four little globes seemed the counterpart of each ether. ‘The closest scrutiny would |not develop the slightest difference. | Nature alone, through the physologi- ical alembic of the human stomach, can tell of their properties. In one there rests the pall of eternity, the struggle for life, the failing of sight, the panorama of years rushing in an instant through the mind, the science and peace of sleep for evermore, the cerements, the burial ease, the solemn cortege und the noisome atmosphere of the grave. All these were contain- ‘ed in one of these little pellets. Del- agrave, having won on the first choice, stepped forward and took a pill. With a calmness which was frigid he placed iton his tengue and with a cup of claret, handed him by the doctor, washed it down. “And now, M. Riviere,” said the doctor. Riviere extended his hand }aud took a pill. Like his opponeut he swallowed it. | ‘The two men stood looking one an- other in the face. ‘There was nota quiver to the eyelid, nora twitch toa muscle. Each was thinking of him- self as well as watching his adversa- ry. One minute passed. Two min- utes passed. Three, four, five. “Now, gentlemen,” said the doctor in solemn tones, “it is time to make the final drawing.” This was the fatal choice. Both men were ready for the cast of the die. Saville tossed the gold piece aloft, and the doctor cried out, “head.” “Heads” it was, and Delagrave teok a pill from the box, leaving only one. ‘‘Now,” said the doctor, “M. Riviere, the re- maining one is for you. You will please swallow them together.” The two men raised their hands at the same time and deposited the pills on their tongues and toek a draught of claret. One second passed and there was no movement. Then—“Good God !” ex- claimed Riviere, his eyes starting from their sockets. He turned half around to the left, raised his hands above his head and shrieked a long wild shriek that belated travelers even to this day say they hear on the shell road near the island. He fell prone to the earth, and, save a nervous contraction of the muscles of the face, there was no movement. Delagrave took him by the hand at he lay on the damp grass, and said in a tender voice: “I regret it, but it was 80 to be.” The funeral was one of the largest ever seen in New Orleans, and for weeks the cafes were agog with the story of the duel. ‘The beautiful wid- ow, horrified at the affair, would never see Delagrave afterward, and is now a happy grandmere on Bayou La- fouche, having married a wealthy planter two years after the fatal event. Delagrave, weighed down with the trials of an unhappy life, wrinkled and tottering,strolJs along Canal street of warm afternoons, assisted by a negro servant. Having a bare competency, he has never actually suffere? from want, but he shows evidence of great mental anguish. The sight of a pill ‘ of c! box makes him shudder, and the taste aret will give him convulsions, leading to the island formed there by | the bifurcation of the bayou, and four differences between you but the death. wae) Ort wmebe = KLUTTZ & ‘RENDLEMAN'S!

A desire to have the loaves and fishes is about the only thing held in eommon by the two parties. What theu should. Dem- verats do? We hold most sincerely that they should remain in the old party, and hope fur wiser action in the fature under the light of experience and information. We believe that iv the vext campaign all Democrats should “pool their issues,” and agree to make a common fight for the salvation of North Carolina and against the old and still active enemy. “The Star has never entertained for a moment any other purpose, and any in- sinuativn or intimation to the contrary is us false as it is malicious. Democrats know what the past brought forth. They know ouly too well what Radical rule in North Carolina means. However oppos- ing individual views on public questions may be, they all ought to unite ip a com- mov purpose to redeem the country from Republican control. If there should be soine plank not worded to express your views, or if there should be some policy indicated that is distasteful to you, that fuct should vot drive you off or lessen your zeal for the success of the only par- ty that by its acta has shown that the destivics of the country are safe iv its hands.

Ss Oe Forestry Conoress 1x MINNESOTA.— The American Forestry Congress will hold a meeting at St. Paul upon the 8th of August. We hope the resalts will be more conspicuous than they have been in past years. Many ideas have been aired and much good advice has been given, but action is the great veed of the situation at present, and the machinery for putting prineiples and plans in force bas not been putin motion.

Come along down, old fellow, we want to live, and even some of them who were idevtitied affected sarprise and sought the aid of counsel, The matter was put in the hands of Detective Booth, of the postuffice detective force, and he svon obtained evidence that warranted bim in charging James with the wholesale for- gery of vames and certificates to his bids and contracts, the sums running ap inte very high figares. Booth at once placed the suspected oan under arrest and will probably take bim to Atlanta. James has contracts fot $200,000 a year, and as the detective alleges that almost all his bonds are forged, the amount involyed may be imagived. In ferreting out the irregularities the chief inspector foand it neceasary to take iuto confidence some one in the locality. He selected Post- master Bassett, at Ten Broeck, De Kalb County. He stated to him the natare of his business, and called upon him for assistance. It subsequently travspired that at the first opportavity Bassett be- trayed the copfidence of the inspector, and not only endeavored to prevent the arrest of the criminal, but placed in jeo- pardy the life of the officer. For this of- fence the postmaster-general- rewoved Bassett, and the postoffice at Ten Broeck was discoutinued. ee een The platform of the Penusylvauia Demoeratic convention makes this de- claration concerning taxation and the tariff: ‘They (the Democracy) believe in such taxation of the people aa is requi- site for the necessities of the goverment, economically admiuistered, and that im- port daties should be so adjusted in their application as to prevent uvequal bar- dens, encourage preductive industries at home and afford just compensation to labor, bat not to create or foster monop- olies. They denounce the proposition of the Republican party that the people should be taxed to raise a surplus fund for the Federal government to distribute among the States. The people should only be taxed as much as is absolutely indispeusible for the coudact of their af- fairs; not one cent for surplus and un necessary taxation. The existing sur- plus iv the treasary should be faithfully neath, each of which holds 28 pounds of powder, while the breech holds bat eigh- teen pounds. As the projectile starts from the breech the force of this entire one hundred and thirty pounds of powder is coucentrated on it, ove ‘pocket’ after another rapidly discharging its contents. The guv is 25 feet long and weighs 25 tons. It is rendered doubly strong by a steel lining, and, it is thought, can hurl a projectile through a solid piece of iron 2iinches thiuk. It will shoot, so itis claimed, from twelve to fifteen miles, and is intended for both harbor and naval defense. The present gun was manufac- tured at a cost of over $50,000.” _—_————— On last Tuesday.

T. K. BRUNER, MANAGER. — Cabarrus Mines, No. 8. The mines in this county in operation during the past month present very fa- vorable prospects. THE PH@NIX MINE. Having increased their working capa- city, a scarcity of water prevented them from treating 150 tens of ores during the month. The amount treated was 125 tons which will yield about $3,000 at an ex- pense of about $1,800. This mine con- tinues to improve with the increased development of resources. THE TUCKER MINE. At this mune the Mears process is ce- tablished, and such changes are now being made as is necessary te work ove chiorinator to its fall capacity. THE CABARRUS GOLD AND SILVER MINE. At this mine they have suspended operations for the present, owing to such a flow of water in the werks that all mining operations was completely check- ed. The company is sow having 10 tons of ores shipped to “Balbeck & Co., New- ark, N. J.,” for treatment as a test, which will decide the manner and extent to which the company propese to condact their business in the fatare. THE EUREKA CONSOLS. An adjoining preperty of the Cabarrus Gold & Silver Mine, has also been sus- pended from the same cause, a quantity of water so great that but little mining could be done, the ores on the surface will be treated at the Tucker mine by chlorination which will decide what pro- cess and machinery it may be necessary to erect to carry out a successful opera- tion. THE NEAL MINING COMPANY. Having purchased the American Min- ing Company’s plant have erected on this property the Tasker pulverizer which wil} probably go into operation about the early partof September, a greal deal is claimed for this machine, probably more than it can accomplish, although that ean only be known on a thoreugh working test. THE SOUTHERN BONANZA GOLD COMPANY was suspended for some weeks from local causes, bat have again resumed operations, they are preparing to erect a 10 stamp mill, which is building at the foundry of Capt.

How Mackay, the Bonanza Man, Hired a King to Dance at $1,000 an Hour. Carson Appeal. The round of amusements which Mr. Mackay is providing for the American colony since his return to Paris from the great fetes at Moscow are the all-eclips- ing topic of the hour. At the ball given last Saturday, as oar special cable cor- respondent reports, Mr. Mackay hired the Kiug of Sweden to dance with the American ladies, paying him $1,000 an bour for the work. About midnight he struck for higher wages and Mr. Mackay stuod the raise with true American sang froid. By 4 v’clock the King was com- pletely blown with his social exercises aud taken from the room iu a fainting condition. Mr. Mackay offered to pay all his funeral expenses if he died, which generous offer made him many friends among the Swedes. The Prince of Wales telegraphed for au invitation to the ball, but the American millionaire, remarking that Wales Consolidated was a good deal short declined to issue au invite. When his little bon mot was trauslated ia the morning journals the city was convulsed with laughter. Several dgscendants of the Bonaparte family who attempted to climb in the windows of the ball room were thrown into the basin of the foun- tain by Mr. Mackay, who stands over six feet in his socks aud is éalled the “atrong map of Nevada.” Although Mr. Mackay danced until daylight and went off shift at six o’clock, he whipped two editors of the royalist faction before breakfast for publishing an incorrect de- scription of some of the dresses worn at the blowout. When the bodies of the editors were borne away in ap ambulance to the Hospital des Iuvalides the crowds applauded in the streets. On Sanday last Mr. Mackay was taken with a chill and feeling that his hour was near purchased the tomb of Napo- leon fora family vault, and had it at once taken to his garden. On recover- ing inthe afternoon he sold it to the Czar at an advance of fifty per cent. The Journal ef Finance applaads this master- ly stroke of business. The only accident which marred the harmony of the grand ball was when the eldest daughter of Count de Chamboid fell into one of the tanks of champagne, which had careless— ly been left iv the corridor, and was drowned. The tank held ene thousand gallons, and the body was not discovered antil the floor managers bad drank the tank nearly dry. ~——-- To the Fruit Growers of North Caroiina. The Second Annual Fair of the Fruit Growers’ Association will be Leld in the city of Wilmington, on the 22d and 23d of August. The previous one held inp Greensboro was highly satisfactory, and as a first effurt was a great success. The attendance was large, the display very creditable, and we have reason to antic ipate that good results will flow from it. We wish to make the next one a grand affair, far exceeding the previous one. The citzens of Wilmington are anxious to have it in their city, and have subscribed liberally of their means for premiums, and will use every exertion to make the visit of those who may attend pleasant and agreeable. Wilmington has many advantages to offor. In the first place, it is the largest city in the State, having at least 20,000 inhabitants, and is easy of access from all parts of the State. It is as healthy as any portion of North Carolina, and the seaside resorts are most delightful, and a cordial weleome awaits all who may come. Let us strive to cul- tivate a laudable State pride among North Carolinians. The people of this section are anxious to stimulate a fruit trade with North Carolina fruit growers, and they prefer to spend their money among their own people than to send it abroad as they have been doing for years. The rates of transportation, beth for passen- gers and freight on fruit, have been made lower than ever before iu North Caroli- na; in fact, all freight for fruit, will be prepaid free of cost by the Association. We want you all to come and help us show to the world what a magnificent fruit country our glorious old State ia. We want the people of the West to come to Wilmington to know our people and tu see for themselves our beautiful city by the sea. R. P. Pappison, Prest. N. C. Fruit Growers’ Ass'n. The President of the Association will esteem it a favor if the State papers gen- erally will copy the above. oo The Pennsylvania Excursionists. If appearances are to be relied upon no party of excursienists ever enjoyed a day more in any place than the Pennsylva- piang did in Charlotte Sunday. The morning was spent righteously in church going, but in the afternoon when the shadows commenced lengthening, the real enjoyment of the party was ushered in. Parties of our citizens gathered them up in carriages, and showing them about the city, drove out to the suburbs and showed them the gold mines and sur rounding farms. The entire party drew up at Wadsworth’s model farm, late in the eveniug, aud gazing with admiration upon the broad, level, grass covered acres, the waving fields of corn aud the neatly trimmed orchards, were conducted to the vineyard, the freedom of which was extended them. From the vineyard they were escorted to the wine cellars, and their admiratien of our country and our people continued to increase. Bid- die Institute was also visited, and night- fall closed a dvelighfal day for the excur- sionists. The party stopped at the Bu- ford House, and were capitally cared for by Mr. Scoville. , Yesterday morning they resumed their car, and under the charge of Mr. Patrick and Mr. K. 8. Finch, who went along to point out the country to them, left for Shelby. They will remain in that sec- tion until Weduesday, when they will return through Charlotte on their way home.—Journal- Ob. -- Finding of Indian Kelics. Correspondencc of the Landmark, Found lately, in the southern part of the county, near St. James’ church, in the eavity of a large white ouk tree, about three feet in diameter, which had died and the top rotted off, thirteen ounce balls, three arrow heads, aud an Indian implement, which itis difficult to de- scribe or to conjecture its use. It is made of avery hard, greenstone rock, the upper surface of a somewhat eval shape 34 inches in the long diameter (originally) but the short diameter is in the middle, uarrowed down to 1} inches. In the centre of this is cut outa cup shaped cavity of an oval shape, two inches long and one inch wide at the top, and § of an inch deep—the outside below corresponds to this—but there is a groove around the bottom and a hole at each end of the cavity near the top, as if fora string to fit in the groove and each end of it tou come out at these holes, suggest- ing a sling worked out with great labor. I have catalogues and descriptiens of several thousand of Indian relics, collec- ted from differeut parts of this country and sold at auction in New York, last year, and a great many from North Caroliva, but can find nothing like this. In a work published last year, at An- dover, Mass., ‘‘Studies in Science and Re- ligion,” are figured two spear points, believed to be prehistoric, one found ina bed of gravel near Treutun, N. J., the other at Abbeville, France. I have two dug up ata deposit near High Point, N.C,, which, laid on the paper, will in size and shape, about cover exactly the pictures. E. F..R- ———_ -_~- Virginla Speaks for Repeal.. The Virginia State Democratic Conven- tion has declared iv favor of abolishing all Internal Revenue taxes. How the convention of Democrats could have the nerve todo this thing considering the position of seme of our North Carolina brethren is a seven days’ wonder. Do not the Demecrats of Virginia know that the State platferm of Noeth Carolina has been ‘‘sot down om” very severely be- cause ef asimilar plank? Is it possible that the people of the Old Dominion— the statesmen on whose shoulders has descended the mantle of Thomas Jeffer- son, don’t know that a fandamental princi- ple of Democracy isto have an excise tax; is it possible that these simple folks of Virginia, the mother of States and of statesmen, are ignorant of the fact that during the whole period of the Demo- cratic rule, extending over sixty years, the ordivary veeds of the government were supplied by an internal revenue system 7 ote They certainly need to go to school and learn polities at the feet of some of our North Carolina Gamaliels. But te re- friends, we feel certain, but reflect in their resolutions the public sentiment of their people. It ie the wish of the Vir- givians first, last and all the time to abolish the internal revenue system. It is worse than foolish—it is unworthy, to pretend that that wish has its origin in dipleasure with the particular officers who administer the law. The officers are nothing. The evils of the system are everything. Itis alsoa vain delusion to suppose that these taxes can be collected under a system that will be obnoxious. It is im- practicable. All that remains for us to- ward securing the entire repeal of the whole system.— Newe Observer. er Hettie's Mitus, N. C., Ang. 7, °83.

Internal revenue—We favor uncon- ditional and immediate abolition of the internal revenue ssstem, a nursery of spies aud info1 mers, a menace to the free- dom of elections, an intolerable burden to the tax-payers, a source of the greatest corruption, and ip its practical operation a special burden upon this State and her interests. 4. We favor a tariff for revenue limit- ed te the necessities of the goverment economically administered, and so ad- ministered and so adjusted in its appli- cation as to prevent unequal burdens, encourage productive interests at home, and afford just compensation fur labor, but not to create or foster monopolies, Much interest is felt in the physical cendition of Governor Tilden. From a recent article in the New York World we gather that his health is firm and good ; that be is robust and active for a gentle- manof his age. But, says the World, Mr. Tilden was born February 9th, 1814. If chosen President he would be ever 71 years of age before he could take the oath and 75 before his term would expire. The World evidently thinks tbat too old. EE aa The Fayetteville Observer tells us that a contract has been made between the Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley Railroad Company and the North State Improve- ment Company by which the latter agrees to build and equip the road from the South Carolina line to Greensboro within a year, and alsothat the Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley Railroad Com- pany has signed an agreement to build’a road from the South Carolina line to Bennettsville within twelve months. So before another year rolls by we will have a line in operation frem Bennettsville through Fayetteville to Greensboro. The Asheboro Courier says the day is coming in North Carolina, and is not distant, when public servants will be too conscientious and editors too indepeu- dent to accept free passes from rail- roads.

During the last few years of his life he had some severe attacks of sickness, and for most of the time was quite a sufferer. But all was borne with Christian submission; and, although his suffering was great at times, yet he never complained or marmured, Often would he say to his pastor, “I know that ‘to die is gain,’ and [ long to depart and be at rest. Yet I am perfectly willing to abide the will of God.’”’ His last illness was brief ; consciousness remained almost to the moment of death ; and so quictly did he fall asleep that watchers hardly knew when to say ‘“‘he is dead.” ‘Neither shall there be any more pain; for the for- mer things are passed away.

New Orleans Timesa-Dem crat, tiful Island of Ischia—the Isehia nous and dreamy “Drifting”—may be only the foreranner of catastrophes equally terrific. ‘There is«no foretell- ing what Vesuvius now. may. lo. Eleven years. ago a series of earth- quakes preceded the eruption of 1872. After another decade. Vesuvius com- mences to show. signs. of eruptive parosyem again; and jt is possible that the earthquake which destroyed three thousand lives, may. herald another outbreak accompanied by the usual sublime and awful phenomena of many colored Jightnings, pillars of fire and of darkness, cataracts of mol- ten rock, etc. Althongh it is trae that eartb- quakes oceasionally occur in regions that have long ceased to be seats of voleanic action, and that upheavals or depressions of strata take place at vast distances from velcanic.ceutres, itis indubitable that the vast majori- ty of earthquakes have not only oc- curred in the neighborhood of volca- noes, but have,preeeded great erup- tions. When a vivient. and terrific earthquake like that of [schis, oceurs in close proximity to Vesuvius, the scientific inference is that Vesuvius is preparing to deluge the vicinity with lava. It has clearly been established that by acareful study of the superficial | effects of earthquake vibrations, the point at which the shock originated may be determined, and that earth quake shocks never originate ata greater depth than 30 miles below the earth’s surface, The nature of the Ischia outbreak indicates that the origin of the shock must be sought near the surluce, and) probably in those great lava reservoirs supplying Vesuvius. The destruction of Chio preceded the recent disturbances in Etna; and although Chio is situated ata far greater distance from Etna than Ischia from Vesuvius, it is probable the phenomena bad their birth in similar underground disturbances. Bat the subsequent agitation of tna and the nefghboring volcanoes was slight. “It may therefore be hoped that Vesuvius will not display more violent activity than the Sicilian giant, although there is good reason to dread the contrary. Naples is but five mile from Vesu- ying: aod when Vesuvius opened her great mouth in 1872, the roa: was so awful that the inhabitants of that city left their houses aad spent the night trembling in the open air.

Two hundred and eighty bo- dies were buried at. Casamiccolia, 90 at Locco, and 29 at Foria. The latest estimate places the number of deaths/ at between 4,000 and 5,000, , As it would be i bury, all the bodies, Signor Genala, ible to recover and Miuister of Public Works, bas order- ed that, in yiew of the horrible exha- lations from . the decomposing _re- mains, the unrecovered cor left. where they.lie, and liquid lime be, poured over the ruins made.by the. carthquake. _Casamicciola will thus be converted into a vast ceme- tery. The search of the ruins for bodies of victims of the earthquake on the Is!and of Ischia was continued last night. All the bodies recovered are buried immediately to prevent mias- ma. Two thousand soldiers digging in the ruins saved 1,000 lives up to midday on Sunday and exhumed 24 persons alive on Monday. The only American koown to have been in- jured by the earthquake was a Miss Van Allen, and she is only slightly hurt. An eye witness describes the scene at the theatre at Cassamicciolia, when the earthquake occurred, as av awful Jone. The curtain had just risen when a tremendous shock was felt, A fear- ful roar followed, and the ground rocked like the seain astorm., A great cry of terror arose from the au- dience, who were thrown into a ‘heap, anda large number of them wefe buried beneath the timbers of fhe building, which fell upon'them. Two moreshocks occurred, All who could rushed out- sideof the ttteatre and hundreds of pet- sons clambered into the trees in the viciuity for safety. Most of the peo- ple, however, escaped to the shore, where bonfires were lighted as signals of distress. Hundreds of half naked men and women, wild with terror and grief, ran to and fro among the ruins with torches during the night, searching for missing friends. Earthquake. : Lonpon, July 25.—The town of Casatnicciola, near Naples, was almost entirely destroyed by an earthquake last’ wight. The neighboring towns of Fariv and Laccesetwnino were great- ly damaged. One hundred persons, more or less, of the severely injured have arrived at Naples by steamers. The number of people killed is not know, Loxpon, July 30.—Al though it has been officially stated that fifty-four persons died in old Cuiro Saturday, mountain is nota guarantee of safety. | One remarkable thing regarding | earthquakeslocks preceding tremeud- | ous eruptions is that an interya) of years sometimes intervenes between the earthquake and the definitive ca-| tastrophe. The shock appears to be a warning. Thus both Héreulaneum and Pompeii were nearly destroyed | by un earthquake in A. D, 63; ‘but| the great eruption which buried them! was postponed until sixteen years! latet—A. D. 79. Lesser earthquakes | accompanied the bursting of the} lava. Ischia has always been farmous,} however, fur earthquakes. Its ancient} name was Enaria, and its origin vol-| canic. Quite « namber of scientific! works have been written about its| natural phenomena. It was first colo- nized by Greeks from Chalcis aud elsewere, who established a flourish- ing colovy ; but they were driven from the Island by earthquakes.

It then became a de- pendency of Neapolis (the modern Naples,) and no great catastrophe oc- jcurred for years, but slight earth- | quakes continued, and the volcanie phenomena of the Island deterred settlers from establishing themselves there. It was not until modern times that it became populous and prosper- ous. Before the catastrophe its popu- lation was about 25,000—not inciu ding pleasure seckors—aud it had two considerable tuwns—IJechia and Foria.

Lonxvon, July 30.—The excitement in Italy may be imagined from the fact that there were 2,000 yisiturs, on the Islangl of Ischia, ingluding weal- thy Rowaa and Neapolitan tamilies, and several Deputies who were taking baths there. It is impossible as yet to give the number of dead at Casa- micciola, In the latest accountsthe pumber is estimated at 3,000. The Hotel Piccola Sentinella sank in the earth and buried many of its inmates, Some of the inhabitants of the island escaped to the sea at the first shock, and made their way to Naples with the news of the calamity. The centre of the shock was the same as that of two years ago, but the radius was wi- The shock was felt at sea, and according to some accounts even at Naples. A geutleman who was stay- ing ut Hotel Piccola Sentivella, and who escaped with his life, relates that he only had time to secure some can- dles to use in the darkness of the ruins before the colapse of the building. A person who lives near the now ruin- ed bathing establishment says he es- caped from the place amid falling walls and balconies, the terrified peo- ple shouting, “To the sea.” The ground opened in many places, while in other places there was no move- meut. Water gushed out of the springs and several boilers in the bathing house burst. The theatre, which was a wooden structure, was litterally torn open, allowing-the audience tu escape. At Lacico there are many dead und wounded, At Forico the churches were destroyed Lut no one was killed. At Serrara fifteen were killetl.

The brown moth floats and poises Like a leaf in the windless air ; Awoke by insect nvises The gray toad leaves his lair ; Sounding the dusk depth quickly The bull-bats fall and rise, And out of the grasses thickly Swarm glistening fire-flies. Now darkness heavy, oppressive And silent, completes the gloom. The breathless night is excessive With fragrance of perfume; For the land is enmeshed and ablaze With vines that blossom aud trail, Embanking the traveled ways And festoouing the fences of rail. Afar in the southern sky Heat lightning flares and glows, Vividly tinting the clouds that lie At reat with a shimmer of rose— Tremulous, flitting, uncertain, Asa mystical light might shine From under an ebon curtain Before a terrible shrine. And the slumbrous night grows late. The midnight hush is deep. Under the pines I wait For the moun; and the pine trees weep Great drops of dew, that fall Like footsteps here and there, And they sadly whisper and call To each other high ino the air. They rustle and whisper like ghosts, They sigh like souls in pain, Like the movement of stealthy hosts They surge, and are sileat again. The midnight hush is deep, But the pines—the spirits distrest— They move in sonambulant sleep— They whisper and are not at rest. Lo! a light in the east opalescent Softly suffuses the sky Where flocculent clouds are-quiescent, Where like froth of the o@éam they lie— Like foam on the beach they erimple Whiere the wave tas spent its swirl — Like the curve of a shell they dimple Into iridescent pearl, And the tight grows brighter and high- er Till far through the trees I see The rim of a globe of fire That rolls through the darkness to me, And the aisles of the forest gleam With a splendor unearthly, shines Like the light of o lurid dream Through the colonaaded pines. —Joun Henry Boner.

Detrvery oF Newspapers.—The spe- cial erder of the Postmaster-General re- quiring the prompt delivery of newspa- pers as woll as letters is what has been needed for some time. Persons outside of the newspaper business can scarcely realize the amount of incenvenience the publishers and subscribers have been subjected te tor years by the neglect on the part of postmasters in country towns, and occasionally in cities, failing to rec- ognize the importance of newspaper de- livery. Instances are not infrequent where a newspaper has been read by the postmaster and his entire family, even “lent” to the neighbors, before it reached the hands of the person to whom it was directed. The order includes among other important matters, an express prohibi- bition of such detention of newspaper packages. There is no reason why a con- tract fer carrying a newspaper should net be as carefully filled by the govern- ment as a contract for letter carrying.

South of with Southern political adventurers, taken from its party the weapon to which it is most accustomed and giv- en it nothing in return. The Repub- licam party is by no means a unit in favor of high protective tariffs, wnd'a| definite adoption of a policy of ex- treme protection would lose it at least as many votes as it would gain for it. Political parties are simply voluntary associations of individuals whose views on certain leading questions are similar, and the object of their union is to put into practical operation those pee of government which they old in common. When the task for which the party was furmed has been accom plished and is no longer a mat- ter fur dispute, it must either be reor- ganized on an entirely new basis or it must cease to be a political party in the proper sense of the term, and be- come a mere combination of voters for the purpose of patting as many of their numbers in places of power, trust or profit as they can. If the latter alter- native be the one chosen, the combi- natiou is itself bound ivevitably to become a prey to faction. Its mem- bers, and especially those active in political life, will form smaller rings within the great ove, in order that they may appropriate to themselves all the “spoils” that are won by the common exertions of all the voters of the so-called party. At the present time the Republican party is in acu- rious position. Most of the men pro- minent in its management appear to be only anxious to maintain the pow- er they now have. Of course they want the party to suceced, because their own places are thus more valu- ble, aod they are willing to commit it to any policy that seems likely to make votes ; but it has for some years been plainly apparent that the larger part of their attention is dirccted to maintaining their own position aguinst the efforts of other members of the same organization te wrest them from them. What these petty struggles are likely to lead to in the absence of ab- sorbing issues may be seen in the con- test now going on in New Hampshire over the United States senatorship. The Republicans have a majority of nearly seventy in the Legislature, and yet for six weeks they have been bal- lotting without a choice. The caucus nominee, Senator Rollins, has been compelled to withdraw, beaten, from the struggle, and it begins to look as if Secretary Chandler will be forced to follow his example. Since 1880 similar divisions have attended the elections for officers for Senators in no less than seven of the States that vot- ed for Gen, Garfield and which gave him 102 out of the 214 electoral votes that he reeeived. In Pennsylvania, in 1881, in Oregon in 1882, in Mich- igan, Minnesota and New Hampshire in 1883, the regular caucus nominees were defeated, while in New York in 1881 and in Massachusetts in 1883 the disorganization was so serious that it was not practicable to hold a cau- cus at all. While the machine lead- ers are fighting ameng themselves a large part of the voters are anxious to be rid of all of them, They are de- sirous of committing to the reform of the administration methods of the na- tional and State governments, and have made uptheir minds that they would rather see their party defeated than that it should any longer be the means of placing in power men unfit to administer the trusts committed to them. The spoilsmen haye the or- ganization ; they are in politics pri- marily for what it pays, and the tri- uinph of the reform of their own par- ty would be from their standpoint every bit as bad if not worse than a general Demcratic victory. Circum- stances of one sort or another have made these internal quarrels in the Republican party and these abuses in its management more prominent than similar failings in the other party ; but they exist in both. Both alike will in the campaign of next year be ex to the temptation to yield principle to expediency ; to acquiese in the cantrol of their machinery by the professional brokers jn aiggianr spoils. At the present time, when voters ure specially aroused to the evils af politi- cal management in the country at large, the victory is likely to follow that party which most determinedly resists the temptation. } ——_——-— — — It has been traly said that the bread of de ence is bitter indeed com- with that which we earn by our own exertions, “Labor is the sweetest jay” is true in every sespect.

During the af- ternoon between 1 and 2 o'clock while the baby, about two or three years old, was sitting in the yard, bis brother, about 6 years old got an old gun and laid it on tbe window and discharged it, the con- tents entering the left eye of the child killing him instantly. When the crowd arrived at the house they found that the boy had covered the face of the dead child with soot to stop the blood. When asked who killed the baby he said he didu’t know, that he was on the bed when it was done, and the girl who is about two years onter, can’t tell any- thing about it.

SS ee Human Natore.—It is a curieus trait of human nature that men who are con- stantly exposed to some special form of danger are the last to take the obvious precautions against it. It is no uncom- mon thing, for example, fer a sailer to be ignorant of swimming, if indeed this may not be said ef the majority of sailors.

What Men Need Wives For, a It not to sweep the house, and make the and darn the socke, cook the m chiefly that a man wants a wife. If thisis all he wants, hired servants can do it cheaper than awife, Ifthis is all, when a young man calls to see a Jady send bim into the pantry to taste the bread and cakes she make; send him to inspect the needle-work and bed-making ; or ut-a broom into her hands and send nim to witness its use. Sach things are important, and the wise young man will quietly look after them. But what a true man wants of a wife is her companionship, sympathy and love. The way of life has many dreary places in it, and man needs a compan- on to go with him. “A maw is some- times overtaken by misfortune ; he meets with failure and defeat; trials and temptations beset him, and he needs one to stand by him and sympathize. He has some stern battles to fight with poverty, with enemies aud with sin, and needs a woman that, while he puts his arm around her and feels that he has something to fight for, will help him to fight; who will pat her lips to his ear and whisper words of counsel, and her hand to his heart and impart new inspirations. All through life—thyough storm and sun- shine, conflict and victory ; through adverse and favorable winds—man needs a woman’s love. The heart yearns for it. A sister’s and a moth- er’s love will bardly supply the need. Yet many seek for nothing farther than success in house work. Justly enough, half of these get nothing more, ‘The other half, surprised above measure, obtain more than they sought. ‘Their-.wives surprise them by bringing a nobler idea of marriage, and disclosing a.treasury of courage, sympathy and love.-—Market Jourmal.

Vir- ginians are beginning to turn the pea- nut into flour, and say it makes a pe- culiarly palatable “biscuit.” In Geor- gia there is a custom now growing old, of grinding or pounding the shelled peanuts and turning them in- to pastry, which has some resemblance both in looks and taste, to that made of cocoanut, but the peanut pastry is more oily and§ richer, and, we think, healthier and better every way. rr SO ee Cuicaco, August 9.—Special dis- patchs report that a severe sterm prevailed in Shelby, Cass and Potta- wattamie counties, Iowa, last night.

When rain is coming .avens caw, swallows chatter, cats “wash tne. faces,” sinall birds prune themselves and make a shaw of working, crows make a great noise in the evening, geese cackle more than usual. The reason is because these creatures love wet weather and rejoice at its ap- proach. God made it necessary fur each man, woman and child to labor in some way—gave each one some corner to cultivate. some little share of the world’s work which no one else can do for them, and if neglected it is sure to bring regret, bitter regret some day.

Dab eipe Ga A Mad Dog’s Bite, The following, clipped from the Char- lotte Journrl Observer, relates the curi- ous consequences of the bite of a dog with the rabies: “Ont in Long Creek township about four weeks ago, a mad dog bit a hog, be- Jonging to Mr. Frank Shoemaker, and . last Thursday the hog died, after a week’s cavorting around with the rabies. The hog actually went mad aud its favorite freak was to root. It rooted up three pine trees, five or six panuvels of fencing and finally overturned Mr. Shoemaker’s corn crib. It died trying to root up a big rock. The carcass was hanled away and next day the buzzards feasted on it, and before they got throngh several of them died by the carcass. Others.tlew up into trees, where they sat with rufficd feathers, until they fellto the ground dead. It wasa fatal feast and the whole farm around wag strewn with dead carrion crows. Mr. Shoemaker says that this is a true bill pnd wants to know if anything like it has ever happened ju this country before.” Tt is all new and as strange as fiction to us. jes, but they performed no extraordinary yooting or other kind of feats. On the contrary, they fell to the ground when the spasams came on, and there rewmaived, kicking aud squealing for a miuate or two during spasm, which recurred every ten or fifteen minutes.

A Dua County Gorermment, Goldsboro Messenger. ( £ _ Avd pow Greene count¥ has two boards of magistrates, {Wo Inferiér courts, two solicitors aud two Inferior court clerks. For some weeks it was known that the is Republicans of the county weuld. make. efforts to control the board of magistrates relying upon the fact that the Legislature had appointed a sufficient number of Re- pablican magistrates to give them a ma- jority on the board. "The Democrats, realizing the sitaation, endeavored to spoil their calculations *by forming two new townships, Carr's and Ormonda. For these magistrates were appointed by Gov. Jarvis, bat the Re- publicans evidently had set their hearts on contrelling the board, avd were ready to resort to any scheme to gain that end. The bungling manner in which the Leg- islature did its duty in the appointment of the Greene county magistrates was turned to account in their favor, and er- rors in ébrolling the names, or perchance of the printer, were turned to good use by Mr. Patrick, the Republican clerk of the Saperior court, until the situation to- day is in an almost inextricable maddle, which the courts alone can solve and re- concile. Indeed, we doubt whether. the courts can do it. Our Democratic frieuds claim that the Legislatare iguored the recommceudations for magistrates sent up from Greene county by the executive committee. Also the most inexcusable errors were com- mitted in the enrollment of the names of those appvinted. For instance, D. A. Sugg was evrolled as Q. A. Sugg; Jvusiah Exum as Joseph Exum ; Johu D. Grimes- ley as Johu D. Grimesly ; Wm. Keel as Wm. McBeel ; Theo. Edwards as Thos- folus Edwards; Wiley Barrow as Wiley. Bonan; Haywood Beaman as Harrod Bervard, ele. Dr. ‘rom B Persou was appointed for Speight’s Bridge when he resides in Bulldose. The clerk of the Superior cout re-ap- pointed all the parties whese names were given wrong but Mr. Barrow, iu whose place a negro vawed Barrell Swinson was appointed. He ale appointed a ne- gro in Dr. Persen’s place, and three oth- er colored justices were appointed, mak- ing five in all, three of whom live in Spreights Bridge township, which is a Demuveratic precinct. For Hookerton township the Legisla- ture appointed Y. D. David. There is no such vame in the township aud the clerk has appointed S. A. Busbee, cvlor- ed, to fill the vacancy. . Ormouds township, new township, has two Republican magistates, Ormond and Dail. These were appointed by thé Goveruor, aud evidently under a misap- prehension, but the result works fatal all the same. Each bourd of magistrates claim to have a working majority, and each Infe- rior court will attempt to hold the court next week. We learn that counsel has already Leen employed by both sides, and that the matter will be hotly contest- ed. . a a Depopulating Ireland.

The proprietors of twe of them. Mr. Wm. Murdoch and Mr. John Fiaber, are ship- ping large quantities to the markets of Virginia and cities further north, where prices range from 5to 15 ceats per lb. They are shipping in eight pound packages, put up in light weoden baskets. They ge through very safe and reach the markets in geod condition. After an inspection of these vineyards with a view to ascertaining the varieties of this fruit best adapted to our climate aud soil for field culture, we have ne hesita- tion in pronouncing in favor of the ‘“‘Con- cord” as A No.1]. The “Clinton” comes next; and in Mr. Mardoch’s vineyard, the ‘‘Delaware” 3d. We found the Salem (a very superior grape,) doing much bet- ter in the field than it usually does in our gardens. Other very good varieties were looking fine, bat those named have pre- eminence. Our farmer friends who desire te wake a valuable addition to their fruit crop, bat plead ignorance of the methods in respect to grape cultare, should visit one of these vineyards and see bow the busi- ness is conducted. Itis simple enough. Any man who chooses may succeed with it, if he will give his vines as mach attention as he gives his corn or potatoes. The annual pruning is also simple. For the amount of labor required no crop pays better. The vineyards spoken of above are yieldipg this year something pear 10,000 pounds of fruit to the acre. To see the rich clusters om the vines is worth a day’s ride. We acknowledge the politeness of both Mr. Murdoch and Mr. Fishor jn our visits to their vineyards; and Mr. F. capped the climax yesterday, by the preseuta- tion of a huge watermelon. He excels iu big hogs, melons and grapes and his wife in raising fine chickens. u— Maj. Bingham’s Lectures. Last Friday morning and evening the Rowan County Teachers’ Institute was favored with twe addresses by Maj. Robt. Bingham, of Bingham’s School. ‘Te say these lectures were interesting aud prac- tical is to say just what ull would expect from this eminent lecturer, Maj. Bing- ham—though no declaimer— possesses the first gift of a orater: he makes his audi- ence listen und understand, however leng he may choose to talk. He talks without paper, in a popular, easy, off-hand man- ner, so that you are sometimes deluded with the notion that yeu are conversing with him, aod are almost ready, when be utters an apparent paradox, to say ‘But on the contrary, Maj. Bingham ” only you don’t do it. His morning lecture was on ‘Physical Geography,” and iv a new and original way he showed the ivflueuce of moun- tains, lakes, rivera, seas and climate— ‘God's earth-writing,” as he called it— upon domestic and national life. The substance of it was that God had written on each continent and section of country, certain great outlines of character, and that when man’s energies were directed in harmopy with God’s “earth- writing” they were successful, and that when man opposed these physical influences, failure was inevitable. The evening lecture was upon “The Practical value of Education.” By nu- merous histerical illustrations he showed that brain-work was necessary to the highest success of nations and sections, and that the more peuple spent on edaca- tion the richer they became ; that Massa- chusetts, with a country whose chief pro- ductievs were granite »nd ice, bad prop-— erty amounting to an average of $1,700 te each ivbabitaut, and paid to each of 100 male teachers in her common schools $5,000, and to each of 100 female teachers $2,800 ; while in North Carolina the av- erage wealth was $75 to each inhabitant, and the salaries of her teachers corres- pondingly low, thoagh her soil was fer- tile and her productions tieh and varied.

The ore that was sent to Balitimore for assay and which was found to yild $2,600, was not picked out, but was gathered from the pile on the dumps, and all the balance is said to be equally rich, Mr. MeCanless says that he is now taking out even better ore than that. He will make a good ehow at Besten and will exhibit his ores aleng with the collection gathered from the ¥ mines in this.section by Mr. T. K. Bruner, who has special charge of the North Caroliua exhibit.—Charlotte Ob- server, Aug. 4. {Is this the old Crewell property form - erly managed by Mr. Braudreth.— Ed. M. Record.) Aug. 11th. This is the same Crowell ‘property, formerly onwed and operated by Mr. Brandreth. The Watcnman has also been ased to give circulation to a report similar to the above. It was necessary for us to decline the responsibility of one of these articles, and while itis true that the ores spoken of will be exhibited at Bos- ton, at the same time it must be distinct- ly understeod that the manager of the miving department of the WaTCHMAN does not sanction these reports, because his opinion and information are to the contrary. A simple statement of the facts as they existed at the time Supt, Eames left the Crowell will sustain our position. At that time the pruperty was yisited and there was ne ore iv sight ex- cept in the “‘arches” er ‘‘pillars” left by the miners for the safety of the mine. When Mr. Eames left, the mive filled with water, and was not forked until the present managemeut took charge. The mine can not produce ore in any quan- tity unless the Brandreth shaft is sunk to a greater depth, and tunnels or drifts run. We have entire coufideuce in Mr. Me- Canless, the Supt., and should he make a statement in regard to the mine, it would be accepted. The WatcuMaAN has labored zealously for the interest of honest mining, and has fought speculation as an enemy to legitimate work. As a matter of consis- tency and. as a protection to the reputa- tion of this Paver it has been deened best to make this statement. We are not respensible for the opinion of correspondents. FOR SALE!

Dear Watchman :-- Having a foreknowledge of the good things that is predestivated to be at and around the place where a goodly number of Methodist Preachers and laymen are gathered together, 1 set out, on Wednes- day, the Ist, inst, to attend the Salisbury District Conference, held at Farmington, Davie county. ‘Though pot a delegate | thought 1 would try my luck as au He (I believe that is whata fellow is called when he is elected to office one term and geta beat the next); Sol noty a few jot- tings by the way. The vew town of Third Creek comes first. Here things seemed tohave taken a bew impetus since its incorporation, ‘wo new stere houses and a faucy dwelling’ nearly com- pleted, a large steam flouriug mill ip prospectus. This place is situated iv a fertile part of the county, inhabited by an intelligent, industrious and indepen- dent Scotch Irish people. Nothing want- ing at Third Creek but more wen with capital, brains and energy. Struck out ria the new cut road, passed the neat residence aad fine orebard of our friend Dr. Eaton, and also au old settle- meut where I used to go courting in days of yore, struck a sway-back, smoky top deserted still house close by, (didu’t imbibe ee bat a faint, sour smell); a log pen hard by with big letters on the door, “United States Bou Warehouse, &c.” Peeped iv at a crack: not even an empty doubling keg was left,thought Uncle Sam’s warehouse was suffering from drought. The farms along this road presented a neat appearance though the erops were suffering much frum the dry weather. Crossed the river at the farm of Juhu D. Johnston, Esq. From the river on to Mocksville the chances for a eee to us some- what slim, unless the people cau substi- tute for corn, wild carrots anda tall breom corn loeking grass that our trav- ‘eling companion said they called Presby- terian, from the fact that neither King- Mill with a Stationary Engine of doms - Principalities, present nor things to come contlaredine when once it got a holt, saw some fields where Tebacco ought to be and some patchet of Bamble Bee cotton. Found Mocksville sitting quietly in solitary places, waiting patiently, and wondering what had become of the R. Read. Called on our old friend Ad. and advised him to brush up by the time the people guthered for the. next ciréus. Aboat 5 miles above Mocksville signs of life again ae and ae I neared Farmington, a beautfal level country burst upon the visiovu, neat residences and improved farms told of a thrifty and energetic people. Farmington is a pretty little village of abont 150 inhabitants. Here I found two of the neatest churches in Western North Carolina. Two stores doing a lively business;,.one large brick store house building; Tobaeco factorys, a steam milland various other work shops. But nothing attracted more at- tention than the residence’ and nds of G. W. Johnson, Esq. ,A. vineyard capable of producing 1500 or lons of wine, large orchards leadéd with select fruit, aud the largest Bee Apiery I ever saw.

An addition was recently made to the coanty jail im Paterson N.J., at a-cost of $30,000. When it was completed, the county officers and the contractor cele- brated the event bya banquet in the building. There were liquors in great avandance. After a number of toasts had been drunk, the gentleman presiding, a judge, proposed “the temperance cause.” It was probably done because they were getting pretty drapk. Mr. Bantram, a temperance man, was called on to re- spond, and did so in the following sting- ing speech, which sonie of them, perbaps, will never forget. He said: “I thank yoo for this invitation, and I recognize its fitness. You have assem- bled to celebrate the enlargement of this jail, rendered necessary by the use of strong drink, in which you are so freely indulg- ing this day. Down stairs the cells and corridors are crowded with crimivals who have but changed places. A few years ago they were respected citizens, some of them occupying as responsible posi- tions us (hose now occnpied by yoursel- ves; but they conimencéd as you have commenced, and they continued as mavy of you are continuing, and to day they are reaping the harvest in a career of crime, and paying the pevalty with a period of puvishinept.” At this moment auother bottle was opened, and Mr. Bantram said : “T hear the popping of corks. I listen to the merry voices, aud the praises you are sjuging to the iufernal spirit of wine; but there comes tu me the refrain from the prisener’s cell, who igiwsbedding peni- tential tears over his folly, and accom- panied by the still saddef wail of avgaish uttered by the broken hearted wife, worse than widowed through the traffic in strong driak, which, asa judgein your courts said, ‘iathe great promoter of crime,’ a traffic licensed by yout votes and sus- taived by the patronage you are this day giving it. It is with inexpressible ead- ness that I discover that there can be found iv Passaic county so many men with their hearts so hap@@ped, feeling so calloused, sehsibilities s&pluuted, that in a place like this, apdeys Bircumstances like these, dare to rg@fe to their lips that which depraves the Citizen and endangers the State. Thanking yoy gentlemen, for the unexpected privilege, I take my seat fully couscious that you will never again call on me under similar circumstauces.” — Selected. , ~~ ——— The generous aetion of , Maj.

It seems to me that only the veriest inex- perience could counfound the diamond eryatal with that of quartz or any other mineral. The peculiar appearance of the diamond is known to all who have care- fullly examined}the crystal. The form may vary, bat the aspect of hardness and the slightly bevelled edges are characteristic and uniform. I know of several diamonds that were found in North Carolina. The late D. J. Twitty, of Spartanburg, had ene at the time of his death, which oe- curred little more than a year ago. This stone came from a mine in Rutherford county, N.C. Ihave seen it oftem. It weighed about a carat, and was slightly yellow inceler. Dr. Hunter, Lincoln county, N.C., also found a small dia- mond and probably ewns it yet. It has a a biaish tint.” A Word With the Farmers. Two years ago the prospects of a good crop were tarned to naught by a terrible drought. The people suffered. Indeed, in this particular section the last three years have been remarkable for the drought. This season it appears is not to be an exception. From every portion of the State, and indeed, from the entire South the news comes that the drought is severe, and the crops are being greatly damaged. Droughts éannot be prevented but they can generally be flanked. Their disastrous influences can be lessened. Now is the time for the farmers terealize and to appreciate that they cam whip droughts if they will. It is said that the crops in England are not affected by the weather ten per cent. in any year. The harvest is often interfered with, and the crops are sometimes lost after they. have been made. But so far as the yield is cencerned, a dreught will not vary the harvest much. How do they fight the drought? How do they become inde- pendent of the seasens? Now this is the point. They prepare their land with the expectation that there will be a drought. To counteract its effeets they underdrain seasto mellow the soil deep. They plough deep. They go down so that in- stead of having six inches of mellew soil to hold moisture, they have twelve inches. Neither droughts nor floods make any difference then. We do not mean that they turn up the poor subsoi) but they break it up, pulverize it, so that a surplus of water will readily percolate through it, and so that it will absorb and bold moisture against the evil day of drought. We want our friends te learn this lesson. These dry times tell who is the good farmer. The farmer who has properly prepared, pulverized, ploughed deep, manured well with homemade ma- nures, twenty-five acres, will make mere on it than his neighber who has skimmed over a hundred acres. We in- vite our frieads who have any practical experience in this matter, who have crops that are now growing well despite the drought, to write ue about it. Our pur- pose is to direct attention in this channel. Who will give in their experience ? Who will tell us the facts of this season 1— News & Observer. -_- Destructive Fire. Boston, August 12.—A fire broke out abeut 1 o'clock this morning at Vineyard Haven, on the island ef Martha’s - Vine- yard. It started in the Baptist church from some unknown cause, and as a strong breeze was blowing, and the houses nearly all of wood, it spread with remark- able rapidity. A patrel was organized to cant lots are full. Numerous thieves from vessels in the harbor are on sbore, and boldly attempted to carry away goods. Several arrests have been made of per- sons caught making off with clothing, ete. The territury burned over embraces about fifty acres of the heart of the villages. The loss cannot be accurately. estimated. It is thought that probably it will fall a little short of $200,000. It strikes al- most a death blow to this ancient village. It leaves hundreds of people homeless, many of whom are thrown upoD the char- ity of their neighbors. There have been no accidents nor Joss of life, although the fire spread quickly and covered a thickly settled territory. The town is at pres- ent full of sammer boarders from Wash- ington and elsewhere, and probably two hundred of them are turned out of doors. At 2:30 a. m. the fire was under cvutrol.

He always looked ratty avd never spent his money on clothes, but the reason was that he was always tinkering with some new contrivance or other, and spent his money jp paying for material to work out his ipventiors. He used to take press in Memphis. He was as fast as they make em, and his copy never gave the telegraph editor a bit of trouble. He had a way while waiting for copy of drawing carrjcatares, illus- trating the character of news he was get- ting, and putting them along in the spaces of copy he sent press. This made ove of the papers up there, I forget which, red hot, and it opeved on him, and had a good deal te do with his being fired by the manager. Edison didn’t, want the fool editor to print his funny pictures ip his telegraphic news. He only drew them for his own amusement. When he went to Boston with his yellow linen breeches on in the middle of winter, the manager of the office finding he was an expert, hired him to keep the repeaters in order, Edison worked at the instru- ments a part of two days, and then was caught by the manager of the office fool- ing with some pew contrivance of his own. ‘Thought 1 hired you to keep those re- peaters in order,’ said the manager. ‘You did,’ said Edison, ‘bat I’ve put a kink or two into them that will make them keep themselves in order.’ From that day his fortune was made. eben Mr. Peter Henderson, the noted mar- ket gardener, gave tv the parserymen’s meeting at Dayton, an account of his mode of raising strawberries iv pots for planting out, by which he has grown over an acre of this fruit alternated with vegetables. As soon as the plants cease bearing and the beds are well forked up the runners commence forming early in July. Small pots, about two and a half inches iv diameter, are filled with avil and suvk to a level with the surface. The strawberry layer is then placed on the pot and held there with a small stone— the stone holding the plant to its place and marking the spot. The pots will be filed with the roots in ten or twelve days when the connection with the parent plant is cut; the pots are taken up and all placed close together and shaded and watered afew days before setting eut. Not one plant in a thonsand peed fail by this treatment. A good workman, after some experience, will lay 2,000 a day. A good crop is thus obtajned in less than a year from planting, in connection with vegetables. A Now GatHer Seeps.—Now is the time to begin tu gather seeds of trees and her- baceous plants. It is desirable to select seeds from plants while they are in a thrifty condition, before they begin to be exhausted from over flowering and pro- duce smaller flowers aud weaker seeds. It is not necessary to wait antil the seed- pods are ripe and bursted before seeds are secured. The seeds are apt to be lost if gathering ia delayed too loug. When the seed-pod is fally matured and begins to assumea brown or yellow color, it should be picked and laid in a dry place, If a considerable portion of the stem is taken with the pod the seeds will usually mature even if quite green. Seed of pe- renuial plants should be plaated ont this Summer as soon as they are cried and the pod barsts. Most of them will then be ready for flowering next year. Seeds of native plants found in the woods and fields can be sown as suv as cullected, whether perennials or annuals. Many of the beautiful natives are easily grown from seeds, especially those whose sceds are large. ———D> a VALUABLE BLuesBirps.—J. F.

It is the general habit among many species of ants to bury the dead very carefully. The following interesting account is given by an Australian ob- server: “] saw a large number of ants surrounding the dead ones, and determined to watch their proceed- ings closely. Four or five started off from the rest toward a hilleck a short distance away, in which was an apts’ vest. This they entered, and in about five minutes they reappeared, follow- ed by the others. All fell into rank, walking regularly and slowly two by two, uutil they arrived at the spot where they lay the soldier ants. In _jone of their eom ee es = vanced and took up the dead body of es: then two oth- ers, and so on, until all were reaily to march, First walked two ants bear- ing a body, then two without a bar- den ; then two others with auother dead ant, and soon, until the line was extended to about forty pairs, and the procession now moved slowly onward, followed by an irregular body of about 200 ants, Oceasionally the two laden ants stopped, and, lay- ing down the dead ant, it was taken up by the two walking unburdened behind them, and thas, by occasional- ly relieving each other, they arrived ata sandy spot nearthe sea, The body of ants now commenced digging with their jaws a number of holes in the ground, into each of which a dead ant was laid, when they were care- fully covered over. This did not quite finish the remarkable circum- stances attending the funeral of the ants, Some six or seven of the ants had attempted to run off without per- digging; these were eaught and brought back, when they are at once attacked by the body of ants and killed. A single gtave was quickly dug, and they were gll dropped into it.” Remarkable Dogs. area staple commodity in Brussels.

One traveler says he saw a dog in Brussels walk off checr- fully up a steep incline with four hundred pounds on his eart, Should a man employ a hand cart there, he will invariably have one er two dogs harnessed to it to do the pulling, while the man simply guides. Still there seems to be avery pleasant sympathy between the dog and his ewner. Dumb animals are occasivn- ally found intelligeat enough to “know their appointed times” by education, and the Higland shepherd dogs area remarkable example of this. The following illustrates canine sagacity, as well asthe kindly con- sideratiun evinced by the Scottish peasantry toward the domestic ani- mals, especially the shepherds to their dogs, which consequently become their attached companions: A minis- ter, calling to visit one of his flock, found before the fire place three dogs, apparently asleep. At the sound of a whistle, two arose up and walked out; the third remained still. “It is odd, said the minister, “that this dog does not get up like the others,” ‘It’s no astonishin’ ava,’ said the shepherd; ‘for it’s no’ his turn. He was oot i’ mornin’... A gentleman staying in the family of a sheep-farmer, re- marked that daily as the family sat at dinner, a shephered’s dog came in, received his portion, and soon after disappeared. ‘I never see that dog except at dinner,’ said the visitor. ‘The reason is,’ said the farmer, ‘we've lent him to our neighbor, Jamie Nicol, and we tell him to come hame ilke day to his dinner—puir beast !—lhe goes back to his work.’— Golden Days. a ee A Dissatisfied Colored Man. Thomas Hamilton, of Beaufort, one of the most prominent colored politi- cians in South Carolina, has written a letter to the News and Courier roundly denouncing the republican party, and insisting that the colored man has rights which must be re spected. He advises the colored men to vote for Democratic candidates. He holds that his race owes nothing to radicalism, and adds: ‘That party has brought such disgrace on the negro namé@ that it will take genera- tious to wipe it out. When the re- publicans controlled this State all that the teachers could get for their cer- tificates was 40 cents on the dollar. Now, when the State is controlled by Democrats, they are worth ove hun- dred cents on the dollar. Education is the one great need of the negro race, and the party which has given the most aid to education is the one which the negro should support.” Mr. Hamilton also says; There are about 150 white republicans in the State, and about 130 of them hold government appointments, Those who are not in office are in business, and invariably vote the Democratic State ticket.” ae The Education of Children, Louise Alcott, who has written so charmingly and suggestively of the education of children, has now a chance to put her theories into prac- tice. When her sister Mary died in Paris she left a littledaughter, yhom Louise has adopted and _ will educate in accordance with her plan of bring- ing up children. This plan she states as follows: “Health comes first and an early knowledge of truth, obedience aud self-contro! ; then such necessary les- sons as all must learn, and later sych accomplishments as taste and talent lead herto desire; a profession or trade to fall back upon in time of need, that she may not be dependent, or too proud to work for her bread. No late hours or unwhvolesome pleas- a few minutes two of the ants ad. ures and dress, no mixing of schol forming their share of the task of kinds of ‘daily duties, and a purpose in life to ness of woman.” ‘atone This is quite different from the edu- cation of the fashionable girl of the period, or the heroines produced by but it may be the harbinger of the new-fashioned girl, it is to be hopes a great improvement upon the last generation, who have been educated up to fashions and follies.—Troy mes. Come Around Next Year.. Wall Street News. : Two boys met in New York yes- terday. Said one; ‘I have one cent, and if I had four more I could bay an elegant cigar.” Said the other; “I have four more. Here they are. Buy the cigar and we'll have a good smoke,” The money was pooled, and the first speaker bought the cigar, and, lighting it, whiffed away with great enjoyment until about half of the weed had been reduced to smoke and ashes. “Hold on,” said the’sec- ond, “J put im four cents” and you anly one. the cigar. That aju’t fair, Give me the rest.” “Not much,” responded No. 1, puffing away vigorously. “This isa stock company. Iam the president and you are only a stock- holler. According to Gould and his judges stockholders have no rights to vote at the annual meetingé. Come around next year this time and if there is any of the cigar left you can vote me out and smoke it. Ta! ta!” — 6 A Part of Lincoln’s Product of Men and Women. If a person will go east on the Be- attie’s ford road 114 miles, then cross to the 14 mile post on the old Roz- zelle’s ferry road, then back to this place, he will have traveled along the three sides of a triange, the area of which form but a small part of this county, and yetit has produced a larger number of persons of distinc- tion than any other piece of territory, of equal size, in the South. Within this triangle were born both the candidates for Govervor in 1845. Graham, who was elected by the Whigs, and his opponent, Hoke, who was the nominee of the Demo- crats. The territory also produced five Confederate generals, namely : The Forneys, and Generals Hoke, Ramsaur and R. D. Johnston; also the Confederate Adjatant General of Nerth Carolina, Col. Jno. F. Hoke, new a citizen of this place. Here also were born Judges Shipp and Schenck, and it was here that mewall Jack- son, D. H. Hill and Col. (now Judge) A. C. Avery found their wives.— Lincolnton Press. Eggs as Food. Eggs, at average prices, are among the cheapest and most nutritious arti- cles of diet. Like milk, an egg ie a complete food in itself, containing ev- erything necessary for the develop- ment of a perfect animal, as is mani- fest from the fact that a chick is form- ed from it. It seems a mystery how muscles, bones, feathers, and every- thing that a chicken require for its perfect development are made from the yolk and white of an egg; but such is the fact, and it shows how complete a food an egg is. It is also easily digested, if not damaged in cooking. Indeed, there is no more concentrated and nourishing food than eggs. ‘The albumen, oil, and saline matter are, as in milk, in the right proportion for sustaining animal life. Two cr three boiled eggs, with the addition of a slice or two of toast, will make a breakfast sufficient fora man, and good enough fora king. According to Dr. Edward Smith, in his treatment on “Food,” an egg weighing an onnce and three quarters contains 120 grins of carbon and 17} grains of nitrogen, or 15.25 per cent. of carbon aud 2 per cent. of nitrogen. The value of one pound of egg, as food for sustaining the active force of the body, is to the value of ene pound of beef as 1,584900. Asa flesh pro- ducer, one pound of eggs is about equal to one pound of beef. A hen may be calculated to con- sume one bushel of corn yearly, and to lay ten dozen or fifteen pounds of eggs. This is equivalent to saying that three and one-tenth pounds of corn will produce, when fed to a hen, five-sixths of a pound of eggs; but five-sixths of a pound of pork require about five pounds of corn for its pro- duction. Taking into account the nuy- triment in each and the comparative prices of the two on an average, the pork is abeut three times as costly as the eggs, while it is certainly less healthful.— Boston Journal of Chem- istry. If every Christian citizen in this great country were know to be unal- terably resolved never to cast a ballot for any but men reputed to be of the pattern portrayed by the sage Jethro —“able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating coveteusness”—what a wondrous political reformation soon would be wrought! The Protestant Churches of the land contain millions of voters who ought to make that re- solve. The political purity of the country is, therefore, very largely in their hands.

At.cook’s PLasteRs worn on the region of the kidneys warms the spinal marrow which is a continuation of the brain, im- parting new vitality and power to the spine they stregthen that mighty organ and fill it full of foreign electricity or nervous fluid. ‘Thus they will restore to the busy active brain of man or woman, the energy and ability which has been lost, by disease, wor ty, or overwork. They restore vitality where there has been debility and nervous- ness, and prevent loss of memory and pa-— ralysis. Physicians highly recommend them for nervous debility, whether arising from dissipation or overwork. They are now known to be the great regenerators of the nervous system and are invaluable in all cases of hysteria. Wwe ak Hidneys Cured. Contoocook, N.

H4MMEL’s Hore, Rockaway Beaca, N. Y., May 19, ’82. t ALLCOCK’s PLASTERS have been of such great service to me and mine that I feel it a duty to state the facts, as briefly as possi ble, to induce others to usethem. My wife for many years was confined to her bed suffering from spinal disease. After spend ing a thousand dollars in vain effort to get cured, she applied three ALLcock’s PLas— TERS te the spinal column, one above the other, Ina few days all pain left her. She applied fresh plasters every two weeks and in the course of two months she com- pletely recovered her health. At first she could hardly walk across the room; each day she walked a little further, and now she is able to walk five miles without fa— tigne. Slice still occasionally applies the plasters to her back, but she has been per- fectly well fur upward of a year. LEWIS L. HAMMEL. CURE OF SPRAIN. 554 Main St., HartTForD, Conn., April 26, 1879.

I have wern them with the best curative effect, for a weak side near the heart, many ycars—fer injury caus, ed by strain and lifting in the army. I could not do without them; I use one about every month. I have on a_ Belladonna Plaster and don't like it at all, for it has not the power or strength of ALLcock’s Porous PLasters. B. WELLS SPERRY. “A Blessing in Disguise.” 484 Apepni St., BROOKLYN, March 29, 1881. No family should be without ALLcock’s Poxovus PLasTERs; their healing powers are wonderful and their efficacy far-reaching and lasting. For years past I have seen and known them to cure and relieve the most obstinate and distressing cases of rheumatism, kidney complaint, bronchitis, neuralgia, lumbago, inflamation of the lungs and throat, paralysis, asthma, spinal weakness, and coughs and colds. -In my own case they afferded me almost instant and permanent relief. My friends consider them an invaluable and speedy remedy tu all kinds of aches and pains. They are a blessing in disguise; and no wife or mother should be without them if she values her peace and comfort and freedom from ner- vous exhaustion and other ailments. As a strengthening plaster, also for baekaches and weakness, they have no equal. I have never yet fqund a plaster so scieiaas and stimulating, or to give so much general sat, isfaction. Used in connection with BRAN- DRETH'S universal life-giving and life-heal— ing PILLs, no one need despair of a speedy restoration to gaod sound health. MRS. E. TOMPKINS.

Le learns a snatch of every song he hears, but wil) not learn a full) separate melody itsown, And the master covers the cage and makes it dark all about bird, and then he listens and learns the one song that is tanght to him, until his heart is full of it.

As our inaterial rolls in one sees better and better what a grand exhibit we will have here at the exposition. Everything is going forward satisfactorily. We found ourselves the first exhibitors here and ours the first material en the ground. But we were none too soon, considering the large space to be filled and the vast amount of the material to be Landled. Our space is the ceutral front space, 150 by 50 feet, the banner space in tho build- ing. As for the specimens, the best esti- mate Ican makais that we have some. thing over 400 boxes and packages and at least 2,000 different articles. The carpenters are now at work patting up our tables, shelving, &c. Our timbers, building stones, &c., are being prepared, dressed aud polished and next week the installation of the specimens will begin. By the way, the experts in these re- spective lines haying our timber and building stones in charge express them- selves as greatly delighted with them. The Jumber men marvel at the magni- tnde, the variety and the beauty of our woods. They are very enthusiastic over our big cherry trees, our black walnuts, our curly maples, curly poplar and curly pine. Ove lamber man who has made a business ef traveling all over this country from Maine to California, said to me yesterday that he did not know that sach timbers existed in this country. I was yesterday with the stone workers who are polishing our marbles end granites. Some of the specimens are ready and | was astonished at their beauty and nov- elty.

This will be address- ed particularly to the South, as the great feature of the exposition will be the Soathern exhibits. Our own Governor has been requested to respond on the part of the guests of the occarion and the Soath; a very proper selection, as no Southern Staie and no executive has been 80 prominent and successful in this en- terprise as North Carolina and her Gov- ernor. The secretary of the exposition saw me to day to ask me to beg Govern- or Jarvis te gccept the invitation. Said he: ‘ aug her improvement iv the last ears, aud the eaterprising spirit exhibited by her execative, we have begun to consider North Carolina as the most progressive Southern State, and her Govesuor aa the exponent of the ‘New South.’ That is the reason we want him.” We hope very mueh that our ewno peo- ple will visit this exposition and study the State’s exhibit. lt is more impor- tant that North Carolinians should know something about North Carolina than that outsiders should. There is a vast deal, too, iu and about Boston to instruct. It is a great industrial center, and is full of just such lessons as we need. We are delighted to hear that our editors are coming. Wecan promise them a most delightful and profitable time. I hear to day that the press association here are taking steps to provide for their proper reception and entertuinment. We have solicited the railroads en the subject of cheap round trip. tickets from North Carolina to Boston. Se far the Northern railroads do not respond very favorably. But there will be po doubt about tho steamship liucs to the South putting the excursiou tickets on sale. A gentleman having the matterin charge tells me to day that at least two routes will be opened to this travel. From East North Carolina the traveler will get his ticket at some of the larger offices, Wilmiugton, Raleigh, Goldsboro or Fay- eteville, readiog via Norfolk and the steamers direct tto Boston. From the Western part of the State, Greensboro, Salisbury, Charlotte, Asheville, &c., the ticket will read via Richmond and the Old Dominion Steamship Company’s line to New York, New York to Boston ria ove the superberd steamships of the Fall river line. This will make, in either case, a most delightful trip. far moe pleasant than by railat this season of the year. The round trip will cost from $25 to $30.) The opportunity will be eagerly taken, I hope, by all parties having lands, mines, or property of any hind to sell, or seeking capital or customers, to visit the East and do their business. The exposi- tion will furnish a very favorable oppor- tunity, especially for those who have sup- plied us with samples of their preducts or Ores to put on exhibition here. Cras. W. Dabney, Jr. a ~_>- Furman’s Farin. Atlanta Conatitution. We find Furman’s the latest information from “intensified” farm, as it. is sometimes called, in the local columns of the Milledgeville Union and Reeorder. Two well known farmers of the vicinity, Mr. Obadiah Arnold and Mr. Wim. Saw yer, recently weut out tothe fumous farm iu order to see how matters are progressing. The result of their observa- tions is that both agree in estimating that the sixty acre farm, if the seasous are favorable, will yield 125 bales of cottou of average weight. In addition to this, the cotton is absolutely free from the rust that is to Le seen on the cotton ef some Judge Furman’s neighbors. We have no doubt there are many far- mers tired of hearing of the intensive or “iutensified” system of farming, bat in spite of this it isthe only system that is worth considering in connection with the millions of acres of worn out cotton lands to be found iu Georgia. It is probably true that many farmers who bave exper- imented with the intensive system have wade partial or complete failures. It is very difficult iu such cases tu convince either those who fuil or their friends that the failure is due to the men themselves and not to the system. The inteuse sys— tem is no more valuable than any other system or lack of system unless it is cur- ried on with intelligeonce. Jadge Furman has discovered the particular food that cotton requires on bis particalar land. Any other farmer, by the exercise of a little patieuce aud intelligence, can du the same thing. After all, farming is pretty much like other pursuits. Those who pursue it iutelligeutly will sucece’, while those who pursue it iv the old fashioned way will always remain in comparative pov- erty. —_Do——— Judge Black. The Baltimore Sun pays the following tribute to his memory : The greatest constitutional lawyer of the present day, the embodied — prin- ciples of popular government, have lost like many geuerations may not produce. BEF a « 2 eee convictions on every subject, he . reach of any motive which could de- ence, political or personal, could rise to the higher atmosphere of his jadicial sta- tien to cloud his vision or swerve his' ermine that he cast aside when be left the bench was whiter than when he pat iton. Asa justand upright jadge, and a model of calm impartiality and blame- less integrity, he won a jadicial fame that should ever be the pride and orna- ment of the bench. His public career, though comparatively brief, was suffi- cient to show that Jadge Black combined withio himself other qualities than those of a judge or alawyer. He had in him the powers and pessibilities of a great statesman, and under different circum- stances and couditious would prebably have filled a wore promineut page in na- tional history. As it was, he showed in his brief hour of opportunity what he could do, avd then, like the valiant man ef the people that he was, went back to the ranks without a murmur. But, while not filling ang public station his sage advice and conpsel were fre- quently moulding and directing the course of events, aud were the secret pages of political history revealed it might be found, perhaps, that some of the bright- est inspirations, as well as some of the most strikiug political phrases and sug- gestions of more thau one administration were drawn from this unfailing source. Great usa judge avd lawyer, wise as a natioval counselor, as a polemical wri- ter, it would be difficult in the whole of modern literature to name Judge Black's superior. Gifted with a remarkable mem- ory, he had swept over almost the whule field of things excellent in ancient and modern writings, and with the mental digestion of an estrich had assimilated and made them all his own. A master of fence as well as of style he drew things new and old from an inexhaustible store house, and overwhelmed adversaries with the character and extent of his re- sources. He could give to his arrew a Scythian keenness, and could tip them with feathers of more than oriental bril- liancy. Ifa party cau be said tu sustain a peculiar loss in a mau who belonged so essentially to the whole country, the Democratic party must mourn Judge Black with especial sadvess. A wiser counselor it never had, and is not likely to have fur many a day. His death comes ata time wheu his party could least af- ford to spare him, and when his steady and clear vision was most reqaired. —< -@- > —— The Straoger,--An Eastern Legend.

To praise the child is to bewitch it, to bring it ill luek—to affect it, io short, with “the evil eye.” Charms and incantations must then be resorted to, aud in some cases the priest is called iv.

Lonpon, August 20.—There was se- rious rioting in the town of Coalbridge, Lauark county Friday and Saturday be- tween parties of Orangemen and Catho- lics. Twenty-six of the parties who took partin the distarbance were arrested. Five officers were dangerously wounded in quelling the disorder. The rioting was resnmed this morning when a number of Catholics armed with picks and hammers, paraded the main street of the town in search of their reli- gious antagonists and resisted efforts of the foree of police sent to disperse them. The officers who were unsuccessful in their attempt te break up the mob were subsequently reinforced by a body of mounted policemen and the combined forces after a sharp fight charged upon and dispersed the parties, twenty of whom were arrested. The town is in a state of great excitement and fresh: trouble is expected.

Butler, a South Carolina, while out horseback rid- ing with a young lady friend at Lancas- ter Court House, yesterday, met with a distressing accident which may result it is feared, in his death. The horse he was riding became unmanageable and ran away with him. He was thrown off and as he struck the ground, the horae fell on him, crushing him badly and causing concussion of the brain. He was in an insensible condition yesterday afternvon, and the docters had bat little if any hopes of his recovery. Dr. Butler has been liv- ing at Fort Lawn, S. C., for sometime past, where he is a great favorite with the people.—Journal Observer. Michigan has sounded a keynote in the matters pertaining to wills. Michigan- ders and Michigooses can now have their wills probated while living, aud if heirs want to make a fuss as to estates dis- posed of they will have to come iuto court and confront the testator or testatrix, while in the flesh, or forever after hold their peace. It is a good idea. The indications are, notwithstanding Judge Gresham denounces Southern Re- publicans as a set ef “d—d scoundrels,” that the Republican party is uaw concoct- iug a scheme by which Confederate bonds can be puid, and that it,is to be used as bait to catch Southern Republican votes. It should be understood that the Supreme Court has been partisanized for the ex- preas purpose of decidivg questions in the interest of the Republican party, ex- vept possibly, Stanly Matthews who is principally owned by Jay Gould, he hav- ing paid $100,000 for him.—Indianapolis Sentinel.

CHARLESTON, August 20.—The News and Courier to-day publishes reports showing great injury to the cotton by drought, and states that greater injury is threatened.

We have ‘long been familiar with the faet that ‘cane sugar crystallizes readily, but ‘that grape sugar in its ordinary states | will uot erystallize at all, We have also known that sorghum sirup was in chief part a solution of glucose in watcr, and that because of the pres- ence of this unerystallizable sugar we failed to obtain any crystals, though we were well aware that sucrose was also present. This may be fairly stated us about the extent of our practical knowledge, three years ago. The fact remained that no one could tell what a given Jot of sorghum sirup would do; perhaps it would | crystallize perhaps it would not. In the special report No. 33 of the Department of , Agriculthre we bave the “analytical and other work done on sorghum apd gorustalks, by the chemical division of the department, ‘July to December 1880.” Dr. Collier, ‘chemist of the department, establishes there certain points, from) which we may make our own inferences. One of the chief objects he had in ¥iew was to ascertain the actual and the rela- tive quantities of sucrose and glucose contained in the juice of the surghum during the successing stages of its growth, This was done carefully and continoously aud with extreme accu- racy. The laws of inerease and of di- minution were ascertained as fully us jthe work of a single season would al- low, and in the repott he was able to gham in years. It was merely at chance, so to speak, ‘Every now and then mat and ptomptness would combine, and as a matter of course beautiful segar showed itself; if either of these two were wanting, beatiful sirup was the ouly reward, —-----@b>- —_--——__—_ The Turnip Crop. —_— The turnip crop is one of the most important in our system of farm ro. tation, but it is one that is more gen- erally neglected than any other. Gon. sidering the cost of production, the turnip crop should be a special one on every farm, They koep well during winter, and not only serve an excel- lent purpose when sliced and fed in the raw state to stock but can also be cooked and mixed with other food. Not only are the roots valuable, but the tops also—there is no part wasted. By weight they produce heavily, and are not deficient in bulk when com pared with mauy other crops. The most essential feature conaect- ed with thé cultivation of turnips is to make the seed bed fine. The seeds are very sniall, and Must not be deep- ly covered, and no Jumps or other ob- structions should be tolerated on the location intended for them. In pro- curing seed get that which has matur- ed this season, and use it liberally, as this plint is often attacked by the turnip fly, which is very destractive. Turnips may be sown broadcast on the ground that has been enltivated and kept clean and free from grass and weeds the previous year; but they should never fullow corn, experience having demonstrated that such rota- tion dees not result well. The seed may be sown in drills— the drills to be of such uw distance redresent these results in’ a series of “graphical plates” which show at a glance the proportions vf sucrose and of glucose ut the dates given. One of these may serve for all very correctly for though notwo agreed fully, as might have been expected, yet all ngreed in the main features, and they prove this succession of events. PEPER EY Commencing in the days of | July, we see that the giucoce exceeds the sucrose in quantity, but this con- dition ceases by about the first of |August. From this time the sucrose | Increases rapidly though not uniform. ily, partial of brief duration, begin to) harden, say about the mid- idle of September, the increase is cheeked until the seed is nearly ripe; lthen it goes on, and at the full matu- | rity of theseed it reached its fmaximum, Whieh it maintains with lonly atthe most a small waste. The maximum schedule lage retrogressious occurring, has is «qual, asa In Some varielies goes de cidedly above it, : 228 caine, and = 1f ak | | | While these chanyves have taken | place in the amount of sucrose, pre- | cisely the Opposite has been gong ou ) with the glucose. It has us steadily }grown less and less, and at the time jot maturity it has fallen to ve ry uear- ily the average of the glucose of sugar icane, and in sume varieties is even Ibelow it. We have then this condition; when the s rghum cane is fully mature, its sucrose has reached its maxinyuo and lits glucose its minimum, and cach of [these is in about the quantity and the | proportions in which |averayge sugar cane, [fore infer that it will vield a retarn | of sugar equal in weight and value to [that of suyar cane, and will do it as isurely and as readily. If this were lubsolutely true, we should have the |key of the situation in our hands, but jour sugar is net yet certain, though | fortunately we are able ta make it so. Sorghum juice is not sugar cane juice. j Ae is Unstable in its chemieal eharac- ter, Its, sucrose, though sv largely in the ascendency, husa strangely |perverse tendency to take to It exists itself panother equivalent of HO and thus | become at ol.ce glucose, Unless this ltendency is arrested every) grain of available sugar may bave disappear- ed, and probably will, within tweuty- | | four hours from the commencement of | ithe change, that is, from the time of | [the cutting of the sorghum. The ltransformation can be prevented by ithe use of lime, but practically this |is best done by boiling. | Here then is the mystery laid bare ithe key | Perfeet maturity of the cane, and | prompt boiling of the juice; these are {the two essential points, ? lexpect failure; we shall have a ylu- cose sirup and nothing else. Nor are ‘these dssertions made at random. Dr. Collier proved in the laboratory, it is ‘true, the points which we haye here seen, aud it is searcely possible to Oki, autruly practical results at which, hg arrived, But we can now £9 ,beyond him, to that avhich his researches have secured in actual field work, Sugar from sorghum cane has begun vow to be a reality, and bot as it was before, a chance shot only. The return is a matter of busi- | mess certainty: as much so as that trom sugar cane. We | . ° ; detail the crop reperis of 188 2, but they fully justify all the statements we have made.

During jall stages of growth the crop should be kept free from intrusion of weeds jand grass, as turnips are sometimes overtaken by drought, daring which time it is absolutely essential not on- ly to keep down weeds but also to keep the soil luose by frequent culti | Vallon, The best fertilizer for turnips is jsuperphosphates ; but the addition of a |proportion of guano and potash in }sume shape will be beneficial. Above all, however, there is nuthing better for them than a liberal appheation of good, fine, well-rotted stable manure; especially if it has been broadcasted und well worked in with the harrow Infore drilling in’ the sceed,—Phila- delphia Record. 202 ; Sun Ingurious to Manure.—lt is a common opinion that exposure to the stm is injurious to manure, and the opinion is probably well-founded. iThe sau dries the manure—that we kunow—and removes the moisture ‘from it.

Brandreth’s Pills have stood the test of forty- five years.of. use by the..Amertean. people. They are entirely Vegetable. They are absolutely universal, for there is no disease they will not cure, iftakenintime. They are |. safe for infants and adults. They aim to ac- complish three things : first, to purify the blood; second, to cleanse and regulate the stomach and bowels; third, to stimulate the kidneys and liver and purge away the ashes of the sys- tem and diseased matters of the body. By pur- ging wi.h these Pills constantly, a new body can be built up from fresh, healthy food in a few months. In this way, gout and rheuma-— tism, ulcers and fever sores can be eradicated in a few weeks. The worst cases of dyspepsia and costiveness can be cured by taking one or two pills eyery nizht fora month. In casesof twenty years’ standing, gentlemen have been eured by taking one pill a night for a year. Brandreth’s Pills give to the human body, no matter how worn or decayed, the recuperative powers of youth. In their action, they imitate the rapid changes of the youthful body.

Two miles from Mandan on the bluffs near the junction of the Heart and Mis- souri rivers, Ran old cemetery of fully | one hundred acres in extent, filled with bones of a giant race. This vast city of the dead lies jnat east of the Fort Tin- coln road, We have just spent a half day iv exploring this charnel heuse of a dead nation. The ground has the ap- | pearance of having been filled with trenches piled full of dead bodies, beth man aud beast, aud covered with several feet of earth. In many places mounds from eight to ten feet high and some of them a hundred feet or more in length have been thrown up and are filled with ! bones, broken pottery, vases of various bright colored flints and agates, The pottery is of a dark material, beautifully decorated, delicate in finish, and as light as woed, showing the work of a people skilled in the arts aud possessed of ahigh state of civilization. Here is a grand field for the student, who will be richly. paid for bis labors by excavating and tunnel- ing iv these catacombs of the dead. This has evidently been a grand battle-field, where theusands of men and horses have fallen. Nothing like a systematic or in- telligent exploration has been made, as only little heles two or three feet in depth have been dug in some of the mounds, bat many parts of the anatomy of man and beast, and beautifal speci- mens of broken pottery and other curivs- | ities have been found in these feeble ef- forts at excavation. Whoure they and from whenee did they come, dying and leaving anly these crumbling bones anid broken fragments of their works of art to mark the resting place of a dead nation? Five miles above mandan, on the oppo- site side of the Missouri, is another vast cemetery as yet unexplored. We asked au aged Tudian what his peaple kuew of these ancient graveyards. He answered: “Me know nothing’about them. They were here before the red man.”— Mandan Da- ' cota, Pioneer. | ——<£> G’aLveston, Tex., Aug. 17.—This city is on the verge of a water famine.

Aflinternal taxes mast be abolished, and in order to make op the amount now collected asinterval revenge the tariff mast be reduced. “For instance,” said Judge Black, “we now cellect $1.500a year on woolen blankets. Redace the tariff to ten per cent ad valorem and we would cellect $25,000,000 in duties on imported blankets. The same thing ap- plies to barbed wire, carpets, clothing and everything the poor man reqaires to wear or use in his house.” The New York Herald, which occupies exactly this groand, thus comments upon this utterance of the dead statesman : If the Democrats lack living leaders they cannot do better than borrow some prineiples from these last pablic atteran- ces ef one of the ablest of their departed spirits. ——_—_———— SO — Gov.

A _ recent stroke of paralysis has warped him that his latter end is near. He bas wade his peace with God and this card is an iudication of his desire to make hia peace with his fellow men. He has sinned grevieusly in his time and he has been grevieusly panished. It is manly in him to acknowledge now the error of his ways by forsaking the party which has brought political rain apoa him and through him came so pear wrecking the State thirteen years ago.—.

Rareien, N.C., August 24, 1883.—The following ia an extract from the ‘Tarboro Southerner of the 23d August: : ‘Passengers from Nags Head last Sat- urday had a novel experience on North Carolina waters. Ou the. steamer Shen- andoah, commanded by Capt. Southgate, were several ladies of color. For their meals separate accommodations had been prepared, which at supper time they de- clined, and weut to the eral table in the main salvou. Our mformant states that ene of the number wasthe wife of the colored ex-United States Senator from Mississippi, now registrar of the treasury, B. K. Bruce. She and the oth- ers at the table beliaved with propriety. It caused, so our ivfurmant states, con- siderable excitement among the white passengers, and a number of ladies de- clined to go to the table until the colored passengers had left the roem. This is the first inatance of the kind we have known in the State.” And has it come to this, under Repub- lican auspices? White ladies in North Carolina are crowded from the table by negro women. Where is the mauhood of Nerth Carolina? This man Bruce is a handsome, bright malatto, who eccapies one of the most important offices in Wash- iugtou City, by appointment of President Gartield. He sigus all our treasury notes | and handles our hundreds of millions of | natioual bonds. Mr. Arthur endorses him | und continues him in office. Mr. Arthur and his predecessor, Gen. Garticld, were both original abolitjonists, and such men have ne special regard for the Southern people or their habits aud customs. liew many white men in North Caroli- na approve this action, by which white ladies were driven from the table by ne- gro women? This censtantly ivcreasivg tendency of things is one the “reasons” why I have left the Repablican party. V. W. HoLpEN. ————__ ee ———_—___—— Compte De Chambord. Vienna, August 25.—The death of the Compte de Chambord at Frohsdorf was a painless one. The last sacraments were adwinistered shortly before his disselu- tion, which was so quiet and peace- ful thatthe attendants at his bedside scarcely knew when he passed away. It was when Dr. Bardi, who had been in almost constant attendance upon the dying man during his illness, closed the eyes of the departed chief of the House of Bourbou, that the Comptesse became aware of her bereavement, fainted and was borne from the chamber. ‘There will be no public funeral services at Frobsdorf. The obseques will be celebrated at Goritz probably ov next Thursday. ‘Tele- giams of condolence bave beeu received trom all parta of Europe. Lonpon, August 25.-—-The Daily News, in av article on Chambord, says death, like life, will not affect Frevch politics. The event belongs to the romance of history and not to ite business. The Times says it sees little ground to anticipate any movement in France favorable to the Orleans Princes, who will not be so ill advised as to arge claims which, at the present time are en- tirely bopeless. The body of Chambord lies clothed in au evening dress and decorated with the grand cordon of the Order of the Holy Ghest. His hands are folded over his breast, audio ove isa crucifix. Wax tapers burn atthe head of the corpse. The first chamberlain of the Emperor Frances Joseph will be seat whou the will ot the late Conntiso 1. Asthedeceased enjoyed exterritorial rights he was not subject to the ordinary laws of Austria. As seon as the news of his deat: became known the inhabitants of the villages around Frohsdorf thronged to the cha- teau, where they attended mass.

Mr. H. W. Miller called the meeting to erder, and on motion J. J. Newman, Ss was elected as Chairman and P. C. Sha- ver, Esq., Secretary. By request, Mr. Newman laws, explained the object of the meeting in a few remarks, stated the bearing of the law as it now existed on the people of the township, and ceacluded with a shert apeech of a few appropriate remarks.

The annual Sunday School Celebration oo last Friday wae delightfal. The grove and church was filled to overflowing with happy hearts and smiling faces; and that long long ta- ble—but I hold aud tell first of the beau- tiful singing rendered by the Sunday Schoel children, led by their worthy pas- tor, Rev. J. Alston Ramsay, a man uai- versally beleved by his congregatien. Was there a heart present se callous, so cold, that was net warmed with emo- tional feeling whilst these children war- bled forth those beautiful carrols? If so, I pity the person whese breast con- tained it. One of Salisbury’s prominent sons was ov hand, J. W. Mauney, Esq., and delivered a brief suitable address to the audience assembled, closing with a display of beautiful engravings represent- ing the Israelites croasing the Jordan and various scevea iv Pallestine, to the great delight of all the children and edification of the old folks. Now for the table which was about 150 feet leug loaded down with the best that our maids avd matrons (so neted fur good cevking) cuuld fix up. This | cougregatios did eat and were filled and a great wamber of baskets fill- ed with fragments were taken up. After diuuoer av excellent address was deliver- ed by Rev. Mr. Barringer, Paster uf the Reformed Charch, near Chiva Grove, and the audience dismissed from the chareh to spend the remainder of the evening in pleasant conversation and secial eujuy- ment iu the beaatiful grove that sur- rounds this grand old chareb. Among the pleasant things, was the mecting together for the first time iu 45 years of a sprightly old Mississippi wid- ower of 63 summers, and one of vur wid- ows of like They had been lovers iu their youthtul days but the old folks suid no.

A New Discoverr.—We are informed that Mr. Adolphus Heilig has just struck a rich find on his place 10 miles south of Salisbury, near Heilig’s Mills postoffice. As reported to us, the rein was discover- ed on or near the surface, about 4 feet in width, bearing beautiful, rich ore. Mr. Heilig is now busy with a number of la- borers opening up his few mine. ——_— <6 An interesting discevery was made a few days ago near the present lead of the Lanier mine. There was naticed a mound of earth on which were growing shrubs and vines, and near it a sunken hole in the ground. These led Mr. Lanier to the conclusion that some one had been werk- ing there before him. He went to work on the mound and soon breaght to light a quantity of what he thinks is very fine ore. Pashing bis investigation further he found that the ore had, perhaps, ages ago, been taken from the hole which, when opened, proved to be an old shaft, and in it was found a lot of old mining tools par- tially destroyed by decay and rust, as well as a vien bearing the same kiud of ore found in the mound. There seems to be a mystery here. Can any old citizen in the neighborhood ex- plain it. ———“ +~e-———— Boston, Aug, 25th, 1883. sible here, in preparation for the grand opevivg of the New England Mauufac- turers and Mechauic’s Institute. It is only proposed in this paper to remark on the large aud interesting exhibition to be made by the State of North Carolina. A large portion of our Exhibit is still on the read, but there is enough here to keep our furce exceedingly busy in the work of placivg the articles. ‘The dis- play of timbers and building stones will be full, and interesting. Already, a great many of these articles have been placed. The display of gold, silver, galena, eopper and iron ores, will be very extensive, embracing specimens from the most prominent mives from all sections of our State. These are now being placed. There will be long lives of counters filled with the average speci- mens gathered from the dumps, while lines of show cases equally as Jong will be filled with fine cabinet specimens of all our ores, and also of all our numerous rare minerals and gems. The grain, cotten and tobacco display will be fair. As yet, no cotten has ar- rived, but all our small grains ave here, and a pavilion is being built in the cen- ter of the North Carolina Exhibit, which will be covered entirely by smail grain in the straw. One of the Florists of the city is saperivteuding the decoration of the pavilion. It will be an attractive place, and will be lighted by four electric lights during the evening. This is neces- sary, because the light outside, (all elec- tric) will make a shadow under the grain pavilion. But itis next to impossible to say much in the way of description now—as the whole building is in the greatest dis— order—the exhibitors from all direc- tiens are here setting ap their various displays. Arrangements are already made fora grand opening ou the 5th of September. Lord Chief Justice Celeridge, of England with aparty of ladiesand gentlemen from Loudon, alsoa party of the New York City Bar Association, Gov. Jarvis and Hon. M. McGhee, and a party from North Carolina, most of the New Eng- land Governors, members of Congress, and members of the Legislature of Mass., and members of the City Couucil of Bos- ton, will take part. A procession to escort Gov. Butler aud the guests of the Com- monwealth from the Revere House tu the Institute Building, will consist of the 9th Reg. Mass. National Guard, the Laucers, (the cracked cavalry organiza- tion of Muss.) and the Jacksen corps of Albany, N. Y., with Bands of music. The ceremevies will be the mest im- posing yet held at any epening. Gov. Jarvis isto reply to the address of wel- come for North Carolina, and the “New South,” while Lord Chief Justice Col- ridge will respond in behalf of the Eng- ligh guests. It is confidently expected that the fair will be visited by 800,000 people, an excess of 300,000 over last year. T. K. B. enema Oscar Wilde has cewe back and has had his bair cut.

John Phaniz's Invention Still on File in the War Department. Baltimore American. “The last time I was in Wash _” said a veteran army officer to the oan t, ‘those fellows in the corresponden Navy Department were in quite s huff over an effort looking to a change in their uniforms, and there was as great a com- motion as the one that existed during President Pieree’s Administration when they talked of changing the styles of ani- form in the army. That event was at- tended by some very amusing incidents but the most la ble was the part ta- Lieutenant at the time and stationed in onsen We Jeff. Davis, who was Secre- ar, issued a general iuvitation te officers of the army who were skillfal ingen e War de- partment, srg | _—_- for a new uniform, but a iar tion to the old uniform: amendment consisted officer was to carry, instead of a sword, with a beok in the end, like a crook. The pole and thering Officers from running away in battle. Fugitives could be easily caught by it and brought back ; stragglers could be kept in line. Moreover the ring woald be very usefal in the cavalry service to fasten soldiers to the saddle, to prevent them from falling off, and in the artillery service the rings were to be used for draught pu , in the absence of mules. These specifications were accompanied by the most grotesque pictares, representing officers hauling cowardly recruits by the serviceable ring, cavalry securely fas- tened to the tops of their steeds by the same device, and artillerymen harnessed to cannon, drawing them through narrow defiles or up an aclivity inaccessible to mules. On another shect of Bristol-board was an illustration in gaudy colors of “Derby's Rotary Mule Howitzer,” accom- panied by a written iuscription to this effect : ed ge the back of a young und vigilant mule strap a mountain howitzer, the mazzle peijoting toward the tail. A similar piece of erdnance is fastened with iron bands under the animal’s abdomen, the muzzle aimed between his forelegs to the front. There are four gunners—two to each piece—and a “persuader,” as he is called, whose business it is to persuade the mule to stand firm and not retreat by stuffing him with oats after each dis- charge, with a tin sausage-staffer. When ludians or other illegitimate game ap- pear in view, the mule ia, by a crank movement on the tail, brought to the front. it don’t make much difference which way the male faces--and here is where my tent comes in—one gun is always point- ing towards the front. At the command ‘Fire!’ the top howitzer is discharged. The recoil throws the mule on his back bringing the second gun into position. This is discharged, which suddenly throws the mule on his feet again, when the gun- pers swab out the mule’s throat with hay and reload.” The illustrations which accompanied these directions—in brown, red, blue and gold, and still on file in the war depart- ment—represented the rotary mule in seven different attitudes, loeking con- tented and happy all thetime. This was felt to be eutrageous audacity on the part of a subaltern. The clerks iv the depart- ment laughed at the funny letter immod- erately,but their superiors looked serious. Jefferson Davis, the secretary, was terri- bly indignant and resolved to defend his wounded dignity. Charges and specifica- tions were drawn up against Lieutenaut Derby, and the oftiers were actually nam- ed for his court-martial, when William R. Marcy, Secretary of State—a man of con- siderable seuse aud self poise—said to the Secretary of War: “Now, see here, General Davis, don’t you do it. This Derby has undoubtedly a superfluous de- velupmeut ef humor, but he is shrewd and ingenious aud really a five draughts- man. He has valuable qualitities. You cap orgavize a court that will convict him, bat you will be the butt of ridicule en account of it all your life. Better tile the suggestions of the crook-and-ring and the lively rotary mule aud say nothing.” And he did it. Pvor Derby subsequently became au inmate of an insane asylum and later died by suicide.” —- -——~-<bo Batavia, August 28.—The eruption of the volcano on the island of Kratestoa, continues. North Batavia, in Java, is covered with ashes, mud aud stones. The crops are ruined and roads and bridges are destroyed. The European quarter at Anjier and the Chivese camp at Merak have been swept away by the overflow of the rivers. A tidal wave also swamped the lewer quarters of Batavia. The shot tour in Baltimore is 217 feet high. On the top of it is a slender staff 25 feet high. Monday last a lightning rod man went up the tour and climbed up to the tep of staff, creating ue little excitement among the crowd of lookers en underneath. hile in this perilous positioun—the staff meauwhile swaying like a willow—he adjusted certain light- ening red glasses nud revewed the flag halliards. ‘he climber stated that the air was 80 full of electric currents that he was compelled at one time to slip quickly dewn the pole some six feet, and iu doing so lacerated his hands. In completing his work be will be compelled to ge dewu the lightning rod outside of the tewer and re- pair avy defects which may appear. FOR SALE!

Unqtiestionably there seems to be no king of death more dreaded by men than death either from sudden catas- trophes—like that of the Ring Thea- tre at Vienna and that on the Clyde, for instance—or from pestilence, No doubt it is perfectly true that death cannot be shared in the same sense in which a peril or a pleasure can be shared. You catinot ifall probabilt- ty be conscious of the strength of com- panionship after life begins to flicker low, nor are there above one or two people in the world with whom ntost mén would covet the sense of com- panionship in such a moment as that of death. Still, it is some what curious that death on a grand scale always seems tu be more terrible, even to the separate individuals, than the ordina- ry death by units. Of course, terror is very catching, and, therefore, the terror of a crowd always enhances the terror of the individaal, But though that explains the supreme agony of a sinking ship ora burning theatre, it dloes not in the least explain the ad- ditional dread of death which plague seeius tO inspire in individuals, for between the inhabitanis ef a plague- stricken city there is always very much less active sympathy than there was before the pestilence appeared, and it ig rather through the growth Of wmutual repulsion than through the heightening of a common sympathy that the influence of pestilence is chief: ly felt, “ As d fact,’ very" few patients stricken, with, ordinary disease, show aby panic. atall, while the perfectly healthy man, ‘surrounded by pesti- letice, 18:too often consunjed with ter- ror which renders him absolutely un- fit for the discharge.of his duties. ——_——___——m-- oe Honrty Tree.—A correspondent jhere is a honcy (ree—a spanish oak— ou the road from that place to Enust Bend one mile from Forbush postof- tliat i8 a cnriosity, aud that has at- tracted thé attention of many. people in the county.

The Youth’s Companion says : We owe more to poor children than we think. Columbus was a poor boy, often needing more food than he could get. Luther sang ballads in the street to get the funds for an education. Franklin used to buy a role for a penny and eat it alone. Dr. Living- stone learned Latin from on his loom used to rise at two in the morning and do the washing for the family. Gambetta was poor and slept in an attic. Lucy Larcom was a factory irl, Dr. Holland was poor and a school teacher. Capt. Exds was bear- foot and penniless at nine years old.

It is situate at the head of the Narrows in Stanly county, 8 miles from Albemarle, the county seat; 13 milcs from Gold Hill, and about 28 miles from Salisbury. It is one mile from the publie highway leading to Salisbury, from which road it is easily accessible down to the water's edge. The peculiar feature of this property is that it isa natural stone dam which makes about a six foot head of available water. The dam runs at anangle of about 20 or 25 deg. up the river nearly all the way across, gradually dininishiny in height asit approaches the opposite shore. A race of 400 feet in length will add from 12 to 14 additional feet of head, mak- ing the grand pewer of 18 or 20.

There has been no public Pi pression on which this opivion of bis, t« unequivocally expressed, can be based. sf we might jndge by what we know of the sentiment of people areund us, we would sag the very opposite is true: the Wemocrats of North Carolina are less in javor of s protective tariff than ever be- jore. The able speeches of Vance, Ran- wan and other distinguised leading men wf the State forthe last twoor three pears ov this sabject has, we think, gone sir to quicken a public sentiment on the tariff yuestion, and Jones haa certainly tytally misrepresented it.

The above resolution has a business look and will no doubt be met by the business men of the party, whose means and tact are undeabtedly equal to the require- ments of the case. We do not expect them to. vote with the Democrats who have never promised them anything, but in this State have done all that has ever yet been done for their advancement.

We do not see any immediate occasion for another Democratic journal at the State capital, but we trust it may find plenty of roem and plenty of work to en- gage its best talents and energies. The Republican party will not leave any ef- foat untried to curry North Carolina in the next election, than which, if suecess- ful, we believe no greater calamity could befall the State. If the State Chronicle rest of the democratic newspapers, pure- ly on principle, for the sake of truth and right, and without the hope of re- ward émthis mortal life, then we welcome it with all our heart; otherwise its advent may aot be preductive of much political advantage. rr Te The Germ Theery is now taking the slace of gnesa-work as to the cause of diseases, especially those of a contagious and epidemic character. ‘The micro- scope has brought te light facts which remove all doubtful disputation as to the producing cause, thus arming acience in its contest with the dreadful maladies which gow and then destroy the human race by handreds and tliowsands.

C., Sept. annual Wheatand Cattle Fair of 1.—The second For. day and Friday, was a grand sucesss. Early on Thursday morning the different roads leading into Winston were throng- ed with people on their way to the Fair, and long before the hour appointed for | opening Pace’s warehouse and surround- | ings were crowded, while large nambers of persons were on the streets, wending their way towards the warehouse. At 10:30 a.m. the famous Wachovia Corvet Band, which was stationed on the speakers’ stand, struck up a lively air, after which the mayor of Winston, J. C. Buxton, Esq., called the large as- sembly to order. Dr. E. Rondthaler, pastor of the Moravian church, Salem, then offered up a fervent prayer, which was followed by an address of welcome by the mayur, Mr. Buxton. More music by the band, and Gov. Jarvis was intro- duced, who delivered an excellent ad- dress, which occupied the remainder of the forenoon. At 3:30 p. m., Mr. W. P. Hazzard, of Chester county, Pa., delivered a very in- teresting address, his subject being; “Milk Cattle, Practical Examination of | Their Important Points.” His address | was listened to with marked attention by our farmers and cattle raisers, and it will no doubt prove beneficial to many of them. After Mr. Hazzard’s address, an exami- nation of Stock by the judges closed the first day of the fair. oe A Monster TurtLeE.—A salt water tur- tle, weighing five hundred pounds, was captured Sunday at the mouth of the Spurwink River by two brothers named Jordan.

Drays carts and freight cars are moving hither and thither, while the noise of the hammer and saw has had no cessation day or night for the last week. The American Electric Light Co., have just finished putting in the lights—a hun- dred and fifty-two thousand candle pow- er lights, will light the main part of the fair building, while the woman's depart- ment andthe Art Hall will each have 200 incandescent lights. The building is the largest of the kind in America— covering av area of some eight acres. It isa matter of pride to be able to | State that the North Carolina exhibit is nearer being ready dor the grand opening day—Sept. 5th—than any ef the other exhibits. We have worked ap nearly all the material on hand, and should the remaining car load arrive, even as late as Tuesday noon, we shall be able to place the majority of it in time. The North Carolina exhibit will be te a great extent, a distinctive feature, in that it displays enly her natural pro- ducts—grains, and other farm preducts; ores, gold, silver, cepper, iron, lead, zine; minerals, rare, beautiful and use ful; timbers, rongh in logs and polished in plank, building stones, reugh from the quary and polished with g mirror-like |surface; soils, marls, tobaceos, cotton &e. Allof thisin sharp contrast with all kinds of machinery, which makes up largely the display of our neighbors. Among the things which attract mach ‘attention here is a large turpentine still, | set up, surreunded by lomg stumps of the Long leaf, or Rosemary pine trees, cut with the sap hardened ou the surface, and with the “boxes” or ‘‘cups” partially filled with the resinous matter. All the tools necessary in the handling of the the material, from the first to the last, are arranged around the still and tree trunks in their order. Much praise is due Dr. C. W. Dabney, State chemist, for his energy and good taste in the general arrangement of the whole exhibit. He and his assistants have labored to make the display show to the best advantage. The Boston Press has been exceedingly complimentary to the Seuthorn exhibits, and especially so | towards our State. They have devoted | colums in large dailies to Nerth Carolina, and have viewed with astonismeut the large are varied display soon to be threwn open tothe public.

(To tbe Editor of the Mining Record.) Sitr.—l have visited the Ivstitute Fair in this city, and find the North Carolina exhibit to be one of the principal features and worthy of note, inasmuch as they display the largest and best lot of min- erals and other prodnets of the State ever exhibited, and the conclusion is that many will be attracted to the wonderful resources of the State by this display. Much credit is due Thomas K. Bruver, of Salisbury, N. C., for his werk during the past three years in introdacivg to the vortheru public the mineral wealth of his State, which, indirectly, has been one means of this large display. ‘The exhibit is under the direction of Dr. C. W. Dabney, State Assayer of North Carelina, assisted by Thomas K. Braner, of the Salisbury Watchman, Prof. Mitch- ell of Raleigh, and W.C. Kerr of the same place. With thisexhibit of miveral, and the fact that many of the mines are now on a paying basis, the mining inter- ests of North Carolina will be more prominent than ever. Legitimate mining }has always paid iv North Carolina since 1330, and no other branch of basiness will ever pay as well when conducted an honest business principles. When = the minerals are all placed I shall write wore particulars. At present it is a satisfac- tion to these jiuterested in the State to know what an impression they are going to make on the public. A G. MINER. > Better Evidence. For sometime the rich ore and gide | veins have been shown from thougands of mines in different stages of progress- ion, but stockholders aud pao.chasers have received no better returns than fur all the investments that have been made. Many mives made repott month alter month of splendid outpnt, that brings ve reward to stochulders that have patiently waited for the, flfillment -ef most alluring promises of sure and cer- tain retarns. ‘The natural conclasion, under the circumstances, is that miniog, the present time ie the general feeling among people outside the mining dis- tricts. That mistakes have been made, that the plan of operation, which flooded the financial centers and even. the farming communities with stock in prospect hole companies, was wrong, we are willin to admit; bat legitimate miners an honest miners are suffering in cense- quence, and will continue for some time to saffer, isa fact painfully apparent to those most interested. By these awindling schemes the devel- opment of the nrining industry has re— ceived a blow which will re and set back the tide of its advancem a decade of years. The current of capital that was eagerly seeking mining investment has suddenly changed its course, and the volume of haman energy that was seekiog this most promisiug field was met by the cold wave of falseliood and - disappoint- ment, and diverted into other channels. The mouatains of worthless ‘stoek, and the memory of some rich claim with high assay avd wonderful vein, sickens and tarns away the hearts of thousands of innocent people, when the most advanta- groes aod positive inducements ate offer- A new dispensation must be fidagura- ted, in which the Teal and substantial value of mining operation must be shown from substantial output. Reliable man. agement and business like methods must come to the foreground. Production must be the watchword and the sole object of every effort. Legitimate devel- opment and substantial improvement must become the rule: Permanence, Honesty, Solid Output must become the basis, and continue to be, to restore public confidence and vindicate the true oharacter of the great industry ef mining. Que other important factor of success must be recognized as it never has been before, and that is the local and mining press. So far the industry of mining has been independent of and indifferent to the just claims of the papers that have been faithful as sentinels upon the walls, and have heralded every advantage of their localities to the ceuters of capital. The time bas come when thie neglected power must be utilized to drive out the shadow of reproach that has fallen like a thick darkness upon a most promising industry. We may safely say that the future of hundreds of mining camps depends more upon the character of the local paper, aud the use made of reliable journals devoted tothe mining juterest, than upon any other other factor of iu- fluence, Development of claims er mines sold in such a manner as to make some return to those investing, will go a long way toward changing the alwest universal feeling that now pervades the Eastern country concerning an industry which can and will prove by solid arguments of false testimony and partial evidence. — Mining Review. 0 eeme There is a simple remedy fer illicit dis- tilling in the mountains of North Caroli- na and Tennessee. Let the tax on Whis- ky, which at present is ninety centa per gallon, be reduced one-half or to fifty cent per gallov, as has been suggested by noted economists who have carefully studied che subject. ‘Vhen the gain by uolawful work would not pay for the risks incurred. The mountaineers would still turn their corn into whisky: which is almast the only protitable way of getting it to market, but they would. prefer prompt payment of the tax to the likeli- hood of having their stills destroyed, and of being called upon at unexpected times to guard their property and por- haps to shoot revenue ofticers.- N.

Three pecks greund will supply us much nutri- ment as four pecks unground, not because there is really as much of it, but becaase, ground, the animal’s stemach will be able to assimilate more nutriment from a given quunti- tv. If your supply of corn is very short, and you have an apple mill, put in the corn in the ears, and crush corn and cob together. ‘The col con- tains some nutriment, it will help to distend the stomach, (a matter of some importance,) and the manure you get will be richer in potash, because the cob of corn is about one fourth pure otash. After the summer cultivation is done, before putting away the imple- ments loosen the screws and bolts, and oil the entire implements, wood work and iron, with kerosene.

The report from the quar- autine station at Ship Island, near the wouth of the Mississippi River, shows that for the week ending August 25th, there were 19 cases of yellow fever under treatment. All the cases were taken from vessels recently from Vera Cruz. Three deaths occurred at.the station, the vic- tims being from the bark Atlantic, bound for Parca Gonia.

A pamber of the women in office are lit- tle other than misstresses of the men to whom they owe their places. It could not be otherwise in the nature of the case. Hence the post of Appointment Clerk, who is bouad to know and te wink at, and, in a sense, to becone a party to the rettenness going on about him, caries with it a sort of infamy.

It 80 happened that her photograph was sent to friends in England aud there met the eyes of a young Englishman, who exclaimed, “It that girl is ae good as she looks I should jike to marry her.” Coming to America, he, too, seught the sunny South for his heath also, and here jn the meautaina of North Carolina, among coe alasaa hi people, the ariate- eratic Englishmas met the young lady whose face he had so admired. Sorel jike, it was love at first sight. Nor was the city girl daunted at the prospect of becoming a farmer's wife; for her lever proposed that they settle apen a smal! darm in this selfaame county. Surprised at the gift of a magnificent diamond ring, she theught it uecessary to begiu Candle Jectures at once, for sure- ly such jewels were quite beyond their gneans. Finally came the confessien that has so often trembled on the lips of yel- Jow covered uovels, That he might firat gaiv her leve he had deceived her. He was worth $600,000, A few months ago she minister rode over from his home 25 Juiles away; and the romance ended with a quiet morning wedding. —-—_-.-—-____ Jkuy fover is less prevalent than asual.

Speaks for the South. a {Boston Papers.) Gov. Jarvis was next introduced and received with cheers. He spoke as fol- lows: Ladies and Gentlemen :--lenly wish that the whole South, which I feebly represent here to-day, could have witnessed this kiud reception you have given its rep- resentative. 1 thank you, sir, and I thank this people for your kind words of as and for their kind appreval. I come net from the South to New England to shake hands across a bloedy chasm, fer thank Heaven into that chasm the peo- ple have voluntarily poured all their hates and animosities, and time has cov- ered them ever, and I come, sir, to clasp hands with you and the people of New England ever the growing prosperity of a united and prosperous country. [Ap- plause.} Whatever the differences were, or whatever ‘might have been the causes that led us into war, those causes have been removed and those differences have been settled, and, I thank God, settled forever, and in our day and generation. [Applause.) Whatever the causes were that kept us apartin sympathy. and in brotherly feeling se long after the war ended, they too, have passed away, and I believe that to-day the people ef this country can meetin any section of this country, North er South, Eastor West and. clasp each other, and leok each other in the face as friends sod as Ameri- can citizens. [Applause.] I have been asked to speak particular- ly for the South. I would, my friends, that | were able te do that section of our country full justice ov this eccassion. When the war ended we returned from thecamp and from the fiell—I say we, because nearly all the men of the Sonth were in the war—to find our section in ruins, our homes despoiled and our fields wasted. Lut we returned, having pledg- ed our fidelity to the Union, with a fixed purpose to remain faithful to that obliga- tion. [Applause.| We found when we retarned to our homes a totally changed condition of things from that which we left. We feund tour millionsof people that had beeu slaves suddenly made free- men. ‘They liad been fuithfel to us ie slavery, faitifal to our wives and ehil- dren and daugiiters, and all at home, when we were inthe field to continue them assiaves. We felt that this new condition of things ought to be adjusted amicably, and adjasted equally, and ad- justed preperly and justly te them, so that we had no small task before ur. But we commenced the work in good faith ; but, before we had scarcely begun to progress, Congress, in its wisdom— aud [co not say it com) laingly—laid down its scheme of admitting the South- erp States inco the Union and readjust- ing our relations to that government ; and, iu their wisdom, they adjusted the relations of those who had been slaves. However patrietically Congress may have acted, it fell in ite results with crushing effect upom the South, because we saw our State aud county yoveraments pass into the hands of people who did not manage for the ivterests of the section they represented. It is but due, in my opinion, to the South, that I should say even here, that the desire to develep the resources of our section, and te brivg our intereste in harmony with the interests of the Union, was what made the South solid, not from any dislike to the gov- ernment, but from the fact that we felt that vor own interests required it. For Iam sure you will agree with ine that there can t+ no prosperity in the North orin the Senth, or in avy other section or State where the people do not live under justand wise laws, equally and faithfully administered. [ Applause. ] Sven after that came the pauic of 1873, 80 that the development of the South in her material interests has only com- menced within the last ten years—I might say praetically within the last tive years. But that cevelopment has net only been gradual, but it has been steady, and it affords great pleasure to say it to you here to-day, bas been great. The State from which 1l exme—for | can speak of that more particularly, North Caroiina—iu her material prosper- ity, in ber wealth, ia her peace, in her laws, in all that goea to make a State great and the psop'e happy—stands to- day higher than she ever stood before in all her history. [Applanse.] Her agri- culture has been inultiplied, ber manu- facturing interests have been largely increased. Within the last five years over twenty vew cotton factories have been erected iv the State and the old ones enlarged, till this year we consume in our State manufactories twice the amount of cotten we did five years ago. Our facteries in wood and irou are alse largely iocreased and the mineral in- terests are devdloping, and all over North Carolina to-day thore ia a feeling of contentment and happiness among the people, and prosperity and peace is abounding. Iu some of the other States the development has been quite as re- markable. We felt in the South, and we feel to-day, that notonly our desires lead us tu an absolute and complete recoucilia tion, but our interest alike requires it; and it is with prideand pleasare that Leay to-duy that whatever the leading citizens of North Carolina and the South have been able to de they have gladly done. Patriotism bas had its work. The spirit ef our fathers bas fallen apon us. The centennials that were held, begin- ning here in your own section and going to Philadelphia and King’s Moantain, and to Cowpens and to Yorktown, had the effect to bring eur people together, to let them look each ether iu the face, and the spirit ef the fath was revived among them again. [Applause.] But, as much as that has contributed to bring aboat this feeling ef abselate reconcilia- tion and brotherly love among our peo- ple, I do pot think it has been equal to the personal interest of our citizens. The magnificent exbibition at Atlanta two yeurs ago brought many of the peeple of the North down te the South, and the people began to feel that their business interests required all these animosities and bittervesses, and remembrances of the past, te be forgotten. And when your committee from this society visited Ral- eigh last winter, asking North Carelina to come here aad join in this exbibition I gladly welcomed the oppportanity for us to come as business men of this coun- try and shake hands with you for the material interest of oar commen country, oyer which floats but ove flag. [Ap- plause.} And lapprehend, my fellew citizens, my friends, that the commen sentiment of all this country now is, that our personal joterests ee citizens. in the basiness relations of life, youre and de- mand thatno moreshall there be any harsh language used by one section of eur country towards the other. | Ap- planse. } There were in days past and gone the most intimate relations between New England aod North Carolina. Many of it at pbout half a uiilieu. J our wost distinguished echolars in the SE eee eens pega ee vee early history of our State came from New England, and many of our most distinguished familice trace their faniil yea directly back to New En And you remember that when the harbor bill was passed, all over the cole- ny of Nerth Carolina public micetings were held, and delegates appointed toa common oe n ee _ a ing was held t resolutions declaring that the cad of the le of Boston was the canse of eveiy American citizen. [Applause.] And they gathered ap from the colony shiploads of provis- ions, and brought themto your harbor and emptied them into the lap of your ple. [Applause.] We think down in Nerth Carolina that your people are suf- fering again, aud we have come to your relief. We understand that you are suffering with too much money and too much population, and we have gathered up our shipload again, and we have bronght itand put it upon exhibition, and this time we want you to pass reso- lutions and that those resolutions be that the cause of the peeple of North Carolinas and the entire South in the struggle for development and prosperity is the canse of every American citizen. [Applause.[ There may be, my friends, here aud there, scattered over the South, seme map pow and then who sits by the dead ashes of the past to brood over them. There may be now and then at the North a wan who will point to sueb an individ- aal as the begroycuitee oe of the South. But I declare here to-day that neither of this class of petsons represents either one of the seetivus./SAnd? ask you to tarn with me your backs upon the past and leave all euel: things behind us; and let us louk furward to the future, with its bright hopes and with its rich re- wards. And here in this magnificent building, dedicated to the materia) inuter- ests of ollr country, asa representative of the Senth, I bid you join me in this sentiment, “Our united country, to thee we cling. And here npon this sacred soil, watered by the blood of our patriot ancestors, we kneel at thy shrine and place our choicest offerings upon thy altar and pledge our best service to thee. Thy peeple, one in seutiment, with the flag of their fathers above them and the God of their fathers to gaide them, shall work out for thee boundless possibilities, and make thy destivy the graudest of all haman governments.” [Loud applause.) — Territorial Lands. There is one error which has bscome a yery general ove, and thatis, that all the best laud iu the Territory of New Mexico has been covered with land grants. An examination of the subject shows this to be very far from the truth. The area of land embraeed by the Terri- tory is 77,000,000 acres, of which vast dowain 53,000,000 acres remaiu still un- surveyed. ‘The 24,000,000 acres which have beeu surveyed iuclude every land grant io the Territory, so that more thau three-fourths, aud a large number of acres besides, of the immense area remain to await the settler. This land can all be put to practical use and ie by no means a desert waste, for wherever the ground ean bo irrigated its productivevess is un- excelled. ‘Those pertione of the Territory which can net be watered sufficiently for agri- cultural purposes have yet enough life sustaining power to feed herds of cattle and sheep tic entire year. The mountains are covercd with magnificent timber, which is waiting for mills to utilize it, and, in addition to this, they contain all precious metals in apparently inexhaus— tible quantities. The eastern and middle sectivuasef the United States are fast becoming overcrowded, and what this ever increasing population needs is reom. New Mexico has land for all who choose te come, ‘There are 50,000,000 acres awaiting vccupants. The fertile valleys of the Rio Grande and the Pecos have not yet been made to yield as gen- erously as they are capable of, and there are at the same time, maay other streams along whose binks no civilizing influen- ces have ever yet been felt.

BRUNER, MANAGER — Mining th Cabarrus County, A valuable gold mine has recently been opened within the corporation limits of the town of Concord, en the Reed proper- ty. Itis being worked by two colored men in a primitive way, they have taken out about 260 dwt. of gold, by millisg a few bushels of the ore on a little one- horse Chillian mill. There are three well defined veins of high grade brown qnartz ore, extending about three quarters of a mile on the property, making ons of the finest preapects ever discovered in in this county. The mine is now control- led by Dr. H. R. Rogers and Mr. Wm. A. Smith, of Concord, who propese te organ- ize a cempany with capital to develop and work the ores in @ systewatic way. At the NEALL MINE, abont two miles from Mt. Pleasant (re- cently purchased), the work of placisg ma- chinery and mining is actively pregress- ing. They expect to commence milling ore next week. The outlook is flattering for good results. The owners of the s ROCKY RIVER MINE are putting up atten stamp mill in place of the Tasker pulverizer, which was feand to be valueless by them for their ore. The work of milling will begin at this mine about the last of this menth. They have a large body of very good grade ore on the dumps and in sight. The Phanix and Tucker mines are both at werk on sulpbaret ores, using the Mears Chierination plant. R. A 9 A BOSTON, Serremser 8, 1883. Another’ busy week—the rush for the grand opening Wednesday, the 5th, has subsided, and while the Fair is open to visitors, yet it is really not ready to re- ceive them. The North Carolina exhibit was the only display that was in shape, and as a consequence, was visited by the throng. Those whe were fortunate enough to possess tickets went to the auditorium and heard the speeches. Gov. Jarvis’ remarks were received with great ap plause, and even enthusiastically. After the addresees, a great many risi- tors came to the office of the North Caro- linn Department and extending their hands, offered congratulations, saying: ‘*We have heard your Governor, and we like him; he is a plain, honest talker, and speaks to the point, New Enylanud should be proud of him and of the won- derful exhibit of your vatural resources displayed here,” &c, Mavy such speeclies were made to the writer. a field day for North In fact, it was Carolina. Our splendid display is the chief resort of all | visitors, and it is said that ‘tbe Old North State’s exhibit, aud the Art Gallery are the enly places in the building worth visiting,” and that too by a Maine mao. People frem that cold country seldom make farvorable remarks im regard to eur sunny clime. It is hard to calculate the amount of good this great work on the part of our State will produce. That it is merey well spent cannot be doubted. Mr. Jne. T. Patrick, general State Immigration Agent, is here and is kept busy locating people and giving them information is regard tu our State generally. That an influx ef capital and settlers will follow is a fact which aleo cannot be doubted. Many citizens of Salisbury remember the spotted rock taken from ‘‘Cooleemee,” the residence of Mr. Frank Brown, in Davie county, as being a stone of pecu- liar formation and beauty. Asanticipat- ed, it has created a sensation among aci- entific men and stove workers. Among the differing opinions, Pref. W. E. Hid- den saya that ‘it appears to be a sphwru- litic dolerite—it is plainly a metamor-s pbhesed rvek of some description or other. The nodales which make up nine-tenths ef the rock are composed of dark green dogite (?) having a nacleus of either quartz or feldspar. These nodules are about half an inch in diameter and are very regular in size and distribution.” This theory may, or may not be cerrect, and as opinions are given, we shall reeord them. The stene takes a beautiful, mir ror-like polish, whieh brings out the deep olive green spets iu all their richness of color. The visit of Governor Jarvis cannot but be exceedingly pleasant, On last Thursday His Excelleney and Commis- sioner McGhee went by invitation to Manchester, New Hampshire, to address the New England Agriclutural Fair. About 15,000 people heard them. To- night (Saturday) the Governor, Hon. Mr, McGhee and Dr. Dabney are attending a grand banquet at the Parker House, giv- eu by the Mayor and city of Beston to the representatives of North Carolina, and ‘Tennessee, Lord Chief Justice Cole- ridge and the foreigu exhibitors. It is strictly a white cravat and swallow-tail coat affair. A grand reception will be tendered Governor Jarvis on next Wednesday, by the M. & M. Institute, in whose building the fair is being held. T.K.B. — ee Rich Copper Mines. Yesterday a reporter hada pleasant chat with Dr. A. Ledoux, who was so long State chemist. His visit here gives his friends mach peasure. He was up in the laboratory and pronounces it the finest so far as equipment, &c.,is concerned in the United States, eutside of a few university laboratories. The maseum he thought beaatifal. Lookivg at the niinerals he told a reporter of the discov- ery of valuable copper ore in Person unty. He has just returned from a visit to this. Itisof surprising purity and abundance and is in a elt ten miles long and three miles wide, ‘Thirty or forty yearsagoa small shaft was suvk Whine aoe ory lee * of the land have been mare. Now twenty shufts are down, 200 men are at work, and heavy shi ts of vre are being made to New York. Boston people are heavy inveaters there, while nota few New Yorkers are joterested. In facet, said Dr. Ledoux, the purchases of mines here are aearly all made tn a quiet way. Nothing is te be done in the way of specalative mining, bat when a man makes up his mind to buy a mining pro- pony’ then cemes ond lives at the spot, ks after his mine as he would after his store, he is sure to make, with good judgment, 30 or 40 per cent on his in- vestment. In no State does such mining pay as well as io North Carolina.— News and Observer. The Fayettevill Observer thinke that the purpose of the North Carolina State convention in resolving that it favored abelition of the interval revenue system has been miscnderstood by some Demo- erats. That paper says: ‘The purpose of the State convention was simply to hasten the country’s re- tarn, in the matter of federal taxation, te the condition which has through the greater portien of its history been found to -afferd least opportunity for federal encroachments upon the autonomy of the States, and the t means of confining within its smallest Jimits the volame of eorraption ivevitably censsquent upon the collection of the revenues ef a gev- erument suchasears. Experience shows that these objects are best effected by the theoretically inferior methed ef indirect taxation (impests) aud net by the thee- retically superior method of direct taxa- tion which produces what we know as joterpal revenue. “And when the purpose of the Demo- eracy of Nerth Carolina im this respect— which wedeubt not will be formally made that of the party at large— is accomplished, ample field for applica- tion of the dectrine ef light burdens for necessaries and heavier for luxaries, will be found in the readjustment ef a tariff which pow taxes diamonds 10 per cent. and bankets 100.” The resolution follows : Resolved, That wearein favor of the entire and immediate abolition of the en- tire revenue system with its attendant cerruptions, and that we deneance the present tariff lawaas grossly unequal, unjust and vicious. We favor such re- visieo of the tariff as will preduee a revenue sufficient for the econumical sup- port ef the government, with such inci- dental protection as will give te domestic manafaetcres a fair competition with those of foreign prodaction. That there referred to reads as the government of the United States, but if it sheuld prove impracticable to aboligh the internal revenue system with all its attendant demoralization, frand and cor- ruption, then we ugre upen eur Senators and Representatives iv Cengress the importance of #0 an.ending the law that the revemae officers whe new receive iu salaries in North Carolina alone more than $500,000 shall be elected by the people of the localities te which they are assigued.” The last canvass was made squarely for the repeal of the system and the wiping out of the entire direct tax. And this together with the words italicised by us would seem to sustain the yiew taken by the able editor of the Fayetteville Observer. Probably he is quite right. But however that be, there is one thougot in this connection that ought not to be lost sight ef. It is this; That whether the convention favored | this immediate and entire repeal ef the revenue system because of its attendant corruptions, or because it is an agsomaly in our laws and as it tends to centraliza- tiou is anti-Democractic in principle, yet the convention never fora moment dreamed of saying that the Democracy | preposed to tax necessaries rather than jluxuries. That question was not in- |wolved in the demand for the repeal ef | the odions, cerrupting and ceutralizing | internal reveuvue system. Sensible. The following ‘‘words of soberness and Virginia journal the Alexandria Gazette : “Go West,” was the key-note of Horace Greely. “Go West” is still the ery with many. Some people in Virgivia think and talk about western fortunes as if all jthey had to do to come into posses- sion of a fortune would be to emigrate and settle West, and the fortune would fall into their lap like a ripe apple. But whata mistake. Western fortunes are not made in a day. Money don't grow on trees in the western States and Terri- tories. It is the experience of every man who has gove West from Virginia that if be had put ferth the same indomitable Fenergy, pluck and perseverance, and had been willing to make the same sacrifices in his native State that he has been com- pelled to make out West, his condition. every way, would be greatly improved. Aud, then, think of the dangers of the West. Cyclones every few weeks, in- creasing in freqneney and destructive power; vobody’s life nobody's property is safe. Let no Visgivian think about gving West, but wake up toa proper con- ception, due estimate and appreciation of the almost imperial possibilities of our grand old commonwealth. Let Virgin- laps go to work and develup her resources and establish their homes amid the ad- vantages of good society, good schools, good roads, orthodox churches, grand water-ways, and profitable prices for the products of the sojl. * * * Itis a melancholly spectacle to witness in our cities, towns aud villages the crewds of idlera lounging abeut the atreeta and stores, with nothing te do because they dou’t want to do anything. This helping John Nobody to do nothing, with commu- bistic envy of the sober and industrious, is the bane of the world. It is heaven's order for man to earn his bread by the sweat of his brow. Work ia bread and meat. Man needs bread, but there are teo many who are willing to eat the bread of other men’s labor and industry and frugality. Onr advice to all is to go to work ; do something, and yon will be useful, honerable and happy. ——_—_~— THe Maaic City or THe Sovutn.—Bir- minogham,Ala., known aa the Magic City, has had a growth not less remarkable than that of some of the famous western towns.

The two shuttle block factories are now in operation, employing a force of about ten hands each, and working up from two to three cords of timber a day in each shop.

WastiIncton, September ,,11.—The September returns to the Department of Agriculture indicate a lower condition of corn than in August in every rection of the country and in pearly every State. . | The only gains in the west are in M.ssou- truth” are taken from that excellent old) i, Kansas and Nebraska, where a slight ipprovement is indicated. Minnesota stands as in August, Arkansas makes a gain of one poiut aud Georgia aud Ala- bama remain asin August, but all the other cottow States show a heavy decline. The figures are also much reduced for each of the Middle States. Tho corn sui- plus States show changes as follows: Ohio a reduction from 89 to 82, Michigan 68 to 60, Indiana 95 to 85, Illinois 86 te 82, lowa 85 to 80. The increase in Mis- souri is from 83 to 84, Kansas 99 to 101, Nebraska 84 to 87. The decline iu New York is from 77 to 70, and ino Pennsylva- nia 99 to 8Y. The general average of the condition on the first of September was 84, a decrease of tive pojnts during the last month. The cause of this reductiou so nearly universal, is the drought which is reported from every State of the At- lantic coast and Gulf coaat and Ohio val- ley and beyond the Mississippi to the crest of the divide between that river and Missoari. Between the Ohio river and the lakes the distribution of rain bas been uveqnal--in a few places in extess while a detieiency is generally reported. The crop is vearly everywhere date, re- quiring one or two weeks’ lounger season than usual to mature. Where Kansas aud Missouri seed was planted in more northern territory the crop ie still later, causing much appre- hension as to ripening. While the plant- ing was late the early season was too wet with a drought following. The. average temperature of the summer haa been low making a full yield an impossibility. Tel- egraphic commuuication with the State agents up to 3 o'clock this afternoon shows that the recent frosts have damag- ed corn nerth of the fortieth parallel. The Ohio agents place the injary in that State at 20 per cent.; thé Indiana agents estimate the loss at from 10 to 20 per cent. in the nerthern section, aad 5 per cent. in the middle belt. The loss is heavy in Wisconsin and Minnesota. There is also some injury io New York aud Pennsylvania. While the. damage cannot yet be clearly determined, it is certain that the frosts have already re- duced the general average below 380, though mach of the heaviest cora of the west is beyond injury. The condition of the wheat when harvested, as reported in these returns, averages 83, which indi- eates the product to be 17 per cent. less than the yield of last year, er a joss of 86,000,000 bashels. Tke crop of oats will be latge, the general average being 99. gp ——$—$__— The Grape Fever in Orange County, Virginia.

Timothy McCarthy,employed in Greea- wood Cemetery as a grayedigger, reports that om Saturday last he heard thecry of ‘‘murder !” coming from a secladed spot pear where he was working, and hasten- ing te the plaee he found twe women in a band to band fight. Their clothes were badly torn and their faces scratched. There wasaman sitting near by, but took no part in the eveounter. The women were separated aud ejected from the grounds. Que ef the women complained that her husband was in company with her servant girl, and as they saton a bench over the grave of a relative, she lest con- trel of herself aod attacked her. A lady living in Brooklyn claimed to have seen the fight. She saysthat the wife, ac- companied by a young man and woman, followed the husband and domestic to where they were sitting. Then the wife sat down on a grave vear by and began toery. Suddenly, springing to her feet, she seized the wewan who was with her husband, and, tearing off her hat, ex- claimed, ,‘‘How dare you two to be here over that grave?’ The women clinched and fell to the ground, meanwhile doing all the damage they could to each other.

Indeed,it isa fact that a chased ‘they were searching for him. asalid quality thatthe weodchuck does not relish ; growing beans, let- tuce, peas, spring corn, new potatees, anything that is good for humans is good enough for him. a meal off of clover, or will subsist on ordinary grass, But all his life he knows that he is a sneak thief. He does not come outand rob like his betters of the Jferox tribe, lyit is very careful about exposing himself. Just after the sun has sunk inthe west, iu the inter- gloaming Letween daylight and dark, he sneaks out of his hole and goes te feeling, but he never feeds with- out watching. Lis down nibblings and uprisings are so frequent as al- inost to be iustantaneous, It is con- sidered in New England localities where the wood chuck abounds, a fair trial of skill tosend a rifle bullet through oneas he shows himself ubove the grass or stubble. This extraordinary quickness of movement makes the hunting of the woodchuck a sport. Usually the woudchuck is caught with dogs and “drowuing out” by pouring water in his subter- ranean habitation, after driving him in and being sire that be is there. The woodchuck, to those whose prejudices do not extend beyond reason, makes a palatable dish. He isa cleanly fed animal, taking only vegetable food. Ile is a hibernating animal, sleeping like the bear from frost to spring, and grows fat on vegetation of the field aud garden, until in the fall he is “fat as a hog,” which he is, and deserves to die to give food to those whom he has rub- bed a whole season through, or or Avoid Farm Mortgages. H. A. Haigh gives the following wholesome advice on mortgages to farmers in the American Agricullurist for August: Mortgages are necessary and bene- ficial in civilized society, but there ure unpleasant features about them. They often enable a man to accom. plish what he could not otherwise do, and they also ofteninvelvea man who would have been otherwise successful, They often enable a man to get out of trouble which he could not other- wise avoid, and they perbaps equally as oftea make miserable a life which would have otherwise been happy, It is easy to get them on the farm, bat it is not always so casy to get them off. Farm mortgages are about the best investment that capital can find. Investors generally like them. They partake of the nature, perma- nance, and other substantial qualities of real property, but are relieved from many burdens imposed upon land. Therefore:—1. Do not moitgage the fara unless it seems absolutely neces- tary. But,as ageneral rule is less val- uable than a particular one, it may be well to specify, by adding: 2. Do not mortgage to build a fine house. By so deing, you will have to pay for aninvestment which docs not bring money: 3. Do not mortgage the farm to buy more land. Where there is absolute certainty that more can be made out of the land than the cost of the mortgage, this rule might not apply. But absolute cer- tainty is rare; mistaken calculation iscommon, 4. Do not mortgage the farm unless you are sure of the con- tinued fertility of its soil. Many persons borrow with an expectation of repayment based on an experience of the land’s virginity only, which, on failing, may leave the land less productive, and the means of repay- ment thus be removed. In this way trouble begius which may result in the loss of the farm. Keep very clear of mortyages.

Some animals, such as the dog and the fox, do open their nionths and pant while ranning, bat they do this to cool themselves and not be- cause they cannot get air enough through their nuses, I found once, through a sad expe- rience with ‘a pet dog, that a deg must lie if his nostrils become stopped.— They. will breathe through the mouth only while it is forcibly held open ; if left to themselves they always breathe through their nose. So, possibly, we are intended to take all our breath through the nose, unless necessity drives us to breathe through the meuth. ; There are many other reasons why we ought to make our noses furnish all the air to our lungs. One is, the nose is filled with a little forest of hair, which is always kept moist, like all the inner surfaces of the nose, and particles of dust that would otherwise rush into the lunges and make trouble, are caught and kept eut by this little hairy network, Then the passages of the nose are longer, and smaller, and more crooked than that of the mouth, s that as it passes through them the air becomes warm. But these are only a few reasons why the nose ought not tu be switched off and left idle, as so nany noses are, while their owners go palling through their mouths, All trainers of men for racing, and rowing, and all other athletic contests, understand this, and teach their pu- pils accordingly. If the boys will try this plan, they will soon see what a difference it will make in their endu- rauce, After you have run a few rods holding your mouth tightly closed there will come a time when it will seem as though you could not get air enough threugh the nese alone; but don’t give up; keep right un, and in a few moments you will overcome this, A little practice of this method will go far te make you the best run- ver iv the neighborhood. An Adventure with a Snake. A Dangerous Plaything Two Young Children were Found with. A Stroudsburg (Penn.) telegram says, a few days ago a neighbor of Mrs, Franklin Smith, in Eldred town- ship, this county, while passing her house, saw her lying in the yard with two children erying by her side, The neighbor hastened to Mrs, Smith, and saw lying a few feet away a large rat- tle snake dead. Mrs, Smith was un- conscious but was suvon revived and explained the situation, Her child, age two, anda child ofa neighbor, age three, were playing in the yard, and she had been watching them from the door, enjoying their sport. She no- ticed that while they were side by side in the grass her little one was ve- cassionally striking in front of her with a short stick she had in her hand, und after each stroke both children would laugh heartily. The other child at intervals would bend for- ward, with her face to the ground, and apparently stroke something with her hand. ‘There had been a small land turtle about the yard for some days, and Mrs, Smith supposed the children had come across this and were amusing themselves with it. She watched them for as much as a quar- ter of an hour, when she walked to- ward them to see what they were do- ing to the turtle. When within a few feet of them she was struck specchless aud motionless with horror to see that their plaything was a large rattle- snake, which was at full length, mak- ing no hostile demonstrations, simply raisiug its head when it was touched, opening its mouth and darting its tongue out and in. It was this per- formance of the snake which caused the children’s mirth, Finafly Mrs. Smith took a step or two forward, and the snake discovered her. In- stantly its whole appearance changed. As quick as lightning it threw itself into the coil which gives it the pow- er to make its deadly spring, and sounded its rattle. This sudden move- ment of the snake alarmed the chil- dren, and they moved quickly away. Mrs. Smith then found a club, and with a few blows killed the snake, after which she remembered nothing until revived by her neighbor. The snake was between fur and five feet long, and had seven rattles, —_—— te eee Loxpox, Augast 31.—The Vicar of Stratford on Avon, has signified his willinguess to allow the remains of Shakespeare to be examined, The object in disturbing the remains is to savage as wellas civilized people. gathered up her blanket as one would a sick child, and, after clasping it in cry.

One of the most striking sights that takes the attention of the traveler in Japan is that of the wooden sandals worn by the 35,000,000 of people. These sandals. have a separate com- partment for the great toe, and make’ a clacking noise on the streets. Straw slippers are also worn, and a traveler supply of them ou his back, that he may put on a new pair when the old is worn out. “They cost but a cent and a half a pair. They are rights aud lefts, aad leave the fuot free to the air; we never see those deformi- ties of the foot in Japan which are so frequent in this country. They are never worn in the house,being left out- side the duor, Pacing down the street you see long rows of them at the doors, old and new, large and small. [t is surprising to see how rapidly the Japs step out of them and pick thea up again with their feet, without stopping, when leaving the house. The Four Trials. There was once an eld monk who was.walking through a forest with a little scholar by his side. The old man suddenly stopped and pointed te four plants close at hand. The first was beginning to peep above the ground ; the second had rooted it-elf pretty well into the earth; the third was a smart shrub; whilst the fourth and last was a full sized tree. Then the old monk said to his young com- panion : ‘Pull up the first.’ The bey pulled it up easily with his flagers, ‘Now pull up the second.’ The youth vbeyed, but not so easily, ‘And the third.’ But the boy had to put forth all his strength and use beth arms before he succeeded in uprooting it. ‘And now,’ said the master, ‘try your hand upon the fourth.’ But lo! the trunk of the tall tree} (grasped inthe arms of the youth) scarcely shook its leaves; and the little fellow found it impossible to tear its roots from the earth. Then the wise old monk explained te his scholar the meaning of the four trials, ‘This, my son, is just what hap- pens with our passions. When they ure very yeung and weak, one may, by a little watehfulness over self, and help of a little self-denial, easily tear them up; but if we let them cast their rovts deep down into our souls, then no human power can up- roet them, the Almighty hand of the Creator alone can pluck them out. For this reason, my child, watch well over the first movements of your soul, and study acts of virtue to keep your passions in check.’— Er, Cm —_~ Po —___.. Maternal Love. A mother’s love is deep, abiding, and peculiar. The child, as soon as bern, is taken up into her tenderest and most generous sympathies, and lives, as it werea part of herself. This peculiar affectiun is as extensive as the race, for it is found among This affection was strikingly manifes- ted by an Indian who had lost her child. Unableto find her own child,she entered the home of a white family and taking in her arms the pretty baby, lavished upon it her wealth of reassured sympathies.

Brandreth’s Pills have stood the test of forty- five years of tse by the Amertcan people. They are entirely Vegetable. They are absolutely univeisai, for there is no disease they will not cure, if taken in time. They are safe for infants and adu'ta. They aim to ac- complish three things : first, to purify the blood; second, to cleanse and regulate the stomach and bowels; third, to stimalate the kidneys and liver and purge away the ashes of the sys tem and diseased matters of the body.

In casesof twenty years’ standing, gentlemen have been cured by taking one pill a night for a year. Brandreth’s Pills give to the human body, no matter how worn or decayed, the recuperative powers of youth. In their action, they imitate the rapid changes of the youthful body.

A QHANGE IN FORTUNE. Timothy Bloom, salesman in Mr. Crabbe’s big retail dry goods store, was stealthily eating his lunch ina dusty corner amongst some empty packing boxes. It was not very good lunch, and warm as the day was, he had but one glass of ice-water with it. A wild, pleasant looking young fellow was ‘Timothy Bloom, with eyes like a pretty girl’s and fair hair part- ed down the middle: but he was rather doleful at this moment, for Crabbe, senior, bad just been abusing him for permitting a lady who was not te be suited by mortal salesman to get off without buying anything, and had likewise informed him that he had been five seconds -late that morning and would in consequence “be deducted an eighth” on Saturday evening. That was not pleasant, and Mr, Crabbe’s manner was not pleasant, and the dusty corner and the stale sand- wich were not pleasant. And who can wonder that poor Timothy Bloom looking up at a row of decorated cor- set boxes above his head, and taking his idea from the winged infant pic- tured upon them, remarked under his breath : “{ wish I was a cherub.” At this moment, even as the wish fluttered upto the corset boxes, a little boy, about three feet high, bear- ing on his bosom a badge with the enormous number 1189, came around the corner, and fixed his pothetic eyes ou Mr. Bloom’s glass of water. ‘I say, Mr. Bloom,’ he whispered, pathetically, ‘won’t you give me just a mouthful of that water? Mr. Crabbe says us cashes ain’t to have no drinks, and I’m chokjn’.’ Mr. Bloom smiled pitifully at the child, a ferlorn widow’s bread win- ner, and said mildly.as. he held out the glass : mere Johnny, take half, I'd let yon have it all if we were not limi- ted to one glass ourselves,’ ‘Guess water’s gettin’ dear,’ said Johnny, eagerly swallowing the share allowed of the cooling draught, but scrupulously careful not to exceed the permission. ‘Thank’ee. You’rea brick. Mr. Bumps hit mea lick when I asked him. Here we have the evening paper, A customer left it on the desk. Save it for me to take to mar when I go home to night, She likes to read the murders, and them things—’ ‘Cash 1139! shrieked a female voite. ‘Cash! Cash!’ ‘It’s Miss Pringle. I must go,’ whispered Johnvy, and sped away in terror. There were ten cash boys in the store, and they had been vumbered high to sound well. Mr. Bloom peered around the cor- ner at the clock, and saw that he had ten miputes more to himself, and opened the paps The first thing his eye lighted upon was the adver- a tisement of a fine country seat for sale, and he read it through—the description of the stables, barns, bath oe Somagetery, veranda, land and ki rdens ; the well, the tiled hall ahd ‘frescoed ceilings, as though he intended to buy it for himself that afternoon. Then he cast his eyes upon an ac- count of how Mr. Muljen bad beatep Mrs. Mullen, and had been arrested for so doing ; anti then he found self reading a ph te the’ that the bare of “Rigothy Lancaster, Eng living, land hear something ta'thelr advantage by applying te Jones. & - Johuson, —— street. ‘My name,’ thought Mr. Bloom at first, Then, with a-start, he remem- that be Ayad >) heard that his Certainly, hecame from Lancaster England. His father, David Bloom, had been an only son. He was an only son himself, Well, then, he was Timothy. Bloom’s heir, if it should prove that the Timothy Bloom men- tioned was really his grandfather’s name. ‘Bat, oh pshaw!’ said Mr. Bloom, ‘This sort of thing couldn’t happen tome. It’s some other Timothy, not poor old grandfather.’ And he copied the address of Jenes & Johnson into his pocket book and went back to his counter quite calmly, though he wrote to Jones & Jolinson that night. However, wonders will never cease. When ‘Tim Bloom, the meekest of }all young mon, went home that Sat- | urday evening with a ‘deducted’ sala- ry anda scolding, he found Mr. Johnson himself in the boarding house parlor, and an examination of the family Bible in his possession, and of acertain bundle of yellow letters that Mr. Bloom had more than vnce decided to burn, but had fortu- nately spared, settled the matter. Half a million of money had come to him in the regular course of nature, Crabbe, but than any of his fashionable customers. It was a wonderful surprise to little ‘Tim Bloom, and he scarcely grasped the idea at first. Even after he had told his chief confidant, his landlady’s pretty granddaughter, Me- hitabel White, a pretty, pink-cheeked, capable damsel, called Hetty for short—he only went so far as think of a pair of patent leather boots and a diamond cravat pin, Hotty waked him to a full realiza- tion of his changed condition by say- ing, rather seriously, and looking away from him: : ‘Of course, grandma’s won’t suit you any longer, Mr. Bloom, and you'll have to go back to Crabbe & Co.’s again.’ By George! I never thought of it; so I shan’t,’ said Tim Bloors. ‘No more counter jumping for me ; and if Mrs. White will let me hire most away? Not I. to herself; ‘but he’ll go as soon as he quite understands,’ Mr. Bloom,’ said Mr. Crabbe, bowing as he parted from the departing clerk, as he did to carriage customers at the very store door, ‘I always felta young men, I said tomy daughter Belinda the other day: ‘If it were not fur giving offence te others I should ask Mr. Bleom to our little evenings. Semething of the prince in disguise abeut him, but an employer has his duties. They sometimes make his heart ache, but he must perform them,’ Mr. Bloom remembered the plac- ard over the water covler: ‘Cashes not allowed drinks; “a cash who drinks deducted one-half, aud thought that if Mr. Crabbe really had a heart this must be true. Tim Bloom wasa_ rich man; but he had no rich friends as yet. The clerks at Crabbe & Co.s’ had been always quarreling among themselves, and he had not known 6fe in private, The boarders were not ‘sociable.’ He treated them to ice cream several times, and took Hetty White toa concert or two. He improved his mind ia libraries and museums, and set up a beokoase of his own, into which he puta miscellaneous assortment of volumes. When one day he received a perfumed envelope, inviting himto a iawa tennis party at Mr, Crabbe’s country seat, he felt that the wealthy had just begun for him. He accepted it of course, and went attired in per- fect style, and ‘looking very well in- deed. He returned bewildered. Miss Crabbe was very handsome. She played and sang aud danced and was ‘stylish.’ She had sec hercap for him, and Mr, Crabbe—yes, actually iMr. Crabbe—had plainly allowed lhim to see that he would give his ‘consent to the match.

What eould it be? Something about the Property of course, Mrs. White car- ried it herself te Mr. Bloom’s room, and as she handed it in, she saw him seated beside a table on which stood a tray of delicacies. Mr, Crabbe was at supper with ber boarder, ‘Excuse me,’ said Timothy. ‘Oli! certainly,’ said Mr. Crabbe. Timothy opened the letter, read it, uttered a deep sigh and passed it to Mr. Crabbe. Mr. Crabbe read it and turned pale. ‘Do I understand it?’ said Timo- thy, hiding his face. ‘Your lawyer says the property is no longer yours, that your grand- futher was not the right Timothy Bloom, and that the real heir will demand a restoration of what you have spent already.’ ‘Yes, I was right,’ said Mr. Bloom. ‘But, Mr. Crabbe, after all, I shall do very well. I can go back to your store, and Miss Belinda has quite a little fortune of herown. We can still be happy. Mr. Crabbe leaped to his feet. ‘Sir! sir!’ he said, ‘this is a great piece of impertinence, sir. You haven't spoken to Belinda,’ ‘But you assured me—’ began Timothy. ‘I didn’t!’ shrieked Mr. Crabbe. ‘At least I was mistaken. I came here with the intention of telling you upon my word and honor that she can’t endure you; and as for the store, you are a most incompetent salesmans There is no situation open. Sorry for you, but—good wight.

Intentions being right, { never will be hard on my boarders, and you cau keep the parlor until it is hired, because its more coufurta- ble.’ ‘And try to keep up your spirits,’ ‘said Hetty, ‘for, after all, money isn’t everything.’ ‘It seemed too sudden to last,’ said Mrs. White. ‘I never trusted these lawyers.’ So the good souls comforted him, and after a while, when he asked Hetty to take a little walk with him she consented. There was a little park ou the op- posite side of the street, and though the gates were locked, they walked ‘around its railings. Their talk was long and earnest, and at last Timo- thy said : ; ‘Well Hetty, poor as I am, will you promise to marry me some day ? ‘And she had answered, ‘Yes, Tim,’ | very simply—and so it was settled ; ‘and for a young man recently re- | duced from affluence to poverty, Mr. /Bloom certainly looked very happy las they went home together.

But when the health flags a little and liberties are taken with the stomach, or the nervous system, a chill is easily taken, and according to the weak spet of the individual, assumes the form of a cold, or pneumonia, or, it may be jaundice. Of all causes of “cold,” probably fatigue is one of the most effi- cient. A youth losing two hours’ sleep over even- ing parties two or three times a week, or » young lady heavily “doing the sea- 4,800,” young children overfed and with a short allowance of sleep, are common in instances of the victims of “cold.” Lux- ary is frases to cbill-taking; very hot rooms, aoft chaira, and feather cre- ate a sensitiveness that leads renee It is not, afterall, the “cold” that is so much to be feared as the antecedent con- ditions that give the attack a chance of doing harm. Some of the worst “colds,” happen to those who do not leave their house or even their bed, and those who are the most invulnerable are often those who are mest exposed to changes of tem- perature, and who, by good sleep cold bathing, and regular habits, preserve the tone of their nervous system and circula- tion. Probably many chills are contracted at night or at the fag end of the day, when tired people get the equilibrium of their circulation disturbed by either overheat- ed sitting rooms, or undefheated bed- rooms and beds. This is especially the case with elderly people. In such cases the mischief is net always done instanta- neously, orin a single night; it often takes place insiduously, extending over days or even weeks. It thus appears that ‘taking cold” is not by any means a sim- ple result of lower temperatare, but de- pends largely on personal conditions aud habits, affectiug especially the nervous aud muscular energy of the body.—Lon- don Lancet. ——— ne ae EXPERIMENT IN GraPE CULTURE. —Mr. G.

It is situate at the head from Albemarte, the county seat; 13° miles from Gold Hill, and about 28 miles from Salisbury. It is one mile from the public highway leadinz to Salisbury, from which road it is easily accessible down to the water's edge. The peculiar feature of this property is that it isa natural stone dam which makes about a six foot head of available water. The dam runs at anangle of about 20 or 25 deg. up the river. nearly all the way across, gradually diminishing in height as it approaches the opposite shore. A race of 400 feet in length will add from 12 to 14 additional feet of head, mak- ing the grand pewer of 18 or 20. There is any quantity of building stone and slate of excellent quality, on the premises, easily transported by water.

THURSDAY, SEPT. 20, 1883. Good Doetrine. BTATE DEMOCRATIC PLATPFORM—JULY orn, 1882. “Resolved, That we are in faver of the entire and immediate abolition of the in- ternal revenue system with its attendant corruptions.” Does this mean abolish Ike Young, Wheeler aud Cooper, or abolish the lax on whiskey and tobacco, or does it mean abolish all? Who knows? There is a dif- ference of opinion.— Wil. tar, Sept 6th. We think nine thousand nine bandred and nivety-nine readers out of ten thou- sand would read the above (resolution) and never have the shadow of a doubt as to its meaning. And yet the Wilmington Star affects to be in doubt about it, or says “there is a difference of opinion” as to its measing.—Wartcumas, Sept 13th. And yet, the Star of the 16th says we misrepresent it. Ad account of th result of an inter- esting experimept ‘comes. to us from’ Franee. In the eottom establishment of M, Besselievre, near Rouen, the system of admitting workmen te a share of pro- fits has been applied with much success. M. Beaseliovre dees not give his hands a share in the management and risks of of his business. He keeps his books to himself and pays them wages, as though they were ordinary laborers. But in ad- fition to the wages he has since |877 distributed among al] workmen who have been in his service five years au anvual bonus proporvieraate to his own profits, which has aweanted onthe average to 12 andevea 17 per cent, of the wages earned by them during the year. Half of this bonus is paid to the men in cash _ and half is retained to form a sick and pension fuad for the families of the workmen. __OO EE Oe ee The Cincinnati Zimes Star brings to the light a piece of government wasteful- pess which is surprising, to say the least of it, te wit: the appointment of customs officers in places where the colleetivns cost the goyernment fromtwo to fifty times the amonnt collected. Almost every towyon the cpastof Maine, for jnetance, has its customhouse and a full board of officers, whe literally do nothing bat draw their salary frem the govern- ment treasury. A similar state of things exist in Florida, but not tothe same extent. There are castoins officers at Atlanta and Vicksburg, interior towns, for whem it is difficult to see of what use they are tu the goverumeut. wn ret Destructiye Spory.--We emitied to potice in our last ao most destructive wind and rain sterm at Wilmington and thence out to sea,on Sunday, Monday and partof Tuesday, Sept. 10th, 11th, and 12th.

W. Gil- liam, ou “T © African iv the United States,” in which figures are made to work eut sume asteunding resalts. Mr. Gilliam shows that in 1935, that is at the expiration of a century, there will be 96,- 000,009 of whites in tho Seutheru States aud 192,000,000 negroes. And he indi- cates that the blacks are gojug to swal- low up the white population, engulfing it in a sable sea of African darkness. The article is extremly well written and is credjtable to the research and industry of the Mr, Gilliam, and in literary execa- tiov is worthy of his polished peo. These werits have secured for it more consider- ation thap if deserves. It was first offer- giving the erronpous conelasjons publici- ty. Many of oer exchanges appear to have accepted the results reached as being within the boutide of probability. - Histo- ry teaches a differeut lesson. Ne such increase ef population has ever been known. Even if the ratio of increase re- ed us for pablitition, but we discouraged | et ad tained for acentury, It never has been maintained under similar circumstances, England at the opening of the century 187] she had only 22,712,266. Scotland in the same period—three quarters of # century—just doubled her popalation, Since the opening of the present centary Ireland bas lest population instead of giining avy. Germany is now losing in- stead of gaining. Had the rate of increase in Eurepe been anything like that which the professor has used to reach his conclusione, Europe would to-day be teaming with a billien people! The rate of increase assumed by the professer probably does vot rest on the real facis. The census of 1870 was gross- ly inaccurate. But apart from that the growth of population in America has been phenomenal, even thoagh the situation has been conducive to human increase, That abnormal condition will become loss marked hereafter until after a few decades it will enterly pass away. The vegre race at the Seuth is doubt- less destined to largely increase but we see nothing in the history of mankind to justify the belief that it will ever ap- proximate the bumber of the whites. In years te come when there will be the ine evitable struggle fer the survival of the fittest race the Africans will meastrably be supplauted in the Seuth Atlantic States and they will find a home iu the malari- ous districts of the Gulf States. There the race will dwindle rather than rapidly increase as suggested by the learned pro- fessor. We know the fate ef the Moors in Spain and the fate of all other inferior races brought in contact with a superior ove. It is thesame. We would hazard nothing in making the prediction that the negrves in the Southern States will reach their culminating point within fifty years, and that some of our readers will live to see them give place in the Atlan- tic States to white lubor. We do not say that this js desirable or undesirable; we merely apply historical precedents to the facts of our situation. >> Death to the Cotton Worm. Some intoresting experiments have been recently made in the South which seem to show that it is possible to save cotton from the ravages of the worms which have heretofore dove so mach dam- age to the plant. The Atlanta Constitu- tion of recent date contains arg interview with Commissioner Henderson and in- spector Rogers, in which details of the experiments made are given. London purple wag the poison used to kill the worms. This was disselved in water (half a pound to fifty gallens) and was sprinkled over the cotton by means of a pump. ‘The first application succeeded in driving away the worms. A stronger solution was then thrown upon the plant and this cansed the death of the eating worms. Where a selutian ef one pound in sixty gallons ef water was used it was found that where it collected in drops it injured the leaves. Inspector Regers is of the opinion that the proper strength would be fou’ ip a solation of one pound of the poison in from eighty to niaty gal- lons of water. Commissioner Henderson expresses himself as thoroughly convine- ed of the intallibility of the poison, aud he thinks that there is now no reason why the farmers of the South should be troubled with the caterpiller, he says the poison docs ne harm to the cotten plant, does no injury to the man who puts it on, and effectually kills off the worms.

New and successful treatment for this Disease with Other facts of impor- tance to the people. TO THE EDJTOR OF THE GAZETTE. Dear Syr :—Having learned that a se- vere case of diphtheria had been yery strangely pured after all bo of recovery had been abandoned, I determined to ob- tain the facts in this case, that they might be published through yopr journal, for the benefit of any who may be afflicted with this terrible disease. For this pur I visited West Farnham, P. Q., where | found the restored man, (Mr. Ameda Chartier), who gave me the following fects. After a very severe attrck of this aueail disease, and although receiving skilfy! medical treatment, nine days he had become so bad he could not swallew, when his phy- siciap abandoned all ho of his recovery it was decided, as a vio ll to try Ken- dall’s Spavin Cure. This remedy was ap- plied externally to the throat, and after be- ing reduced one-half with water, was used asa gargle. Continuing this treatment, he found, to his great joy, that at the end of lied on ere correct, it cuuid got be wain-] two days he was better, and in less than a — had a population of over $9,000,000—~in | ing it ——_— a week he was permanently relieved —indeed o ¢c Having had consi experience with this remedy as a family Hinkmests and know- to be very val for many of the accidents and ailments to which human flesh is liable, stil] I was much surprised as well as gratified to find a well authentica— ted case of the cure of diphtheria by its use, a disease that is baffling the skill of the ablest physicians, and carrying so many of our ren and young people to an un timely death. Knowing something of the origin, histo~ and success of Kendall’s Spavin Cure in the United States, I was interested to learn how it is being received in Canada. I was pleased to find it very highly spoken of by those of whom [ made inquiries, that it is producing tharked beneficial effects wher- ever used, and ig considered a remedy of great promise. The young man Chartier stated that-a relative had used it with t benefit for rheumatism, anda leading druggist of Montreal gave an instance where it had ef- fected a cure for some form of this disease. Mr. Thomas Duniphrey, head waiter at the Albion Hotel, Montreal, I found had been nearly crippled with a troublesome corn. Learning that Kendall's Spavin Cure was good for such ajlments, he made a liberal application ef the remedy, and as the re- suit the corn was removed, and he is ready to speak a good word for the means of cure whenever occasion offers. Rev. Mr. , pfiest and rector of the of Ste. Bmilié, stated’ that he had obtained entire ‘satisfaction from using Kendall's Spavin'Outé; by removing a spa— vin and g Wimeness on his horse, and that he was. fully convinced ° of the great valawofshe semedy and should keep it comstantly en hand, Although originated as. a remedy for spavins, ringboves wud diseases peculiar to horses, yet experience as will be seen from the statements given, is demonstrating the fact that it is as efficacious for man as beast. While at West Farnham I saw a horse belonging to Mr. G. B. Dion that was being treated fer spavin. The lameness was gone and neither myself por the gentleman with me could discover any enlargement. Wright & Co., of Medical Hall, St. Johns, stated Kendall’s Spavin Cure sells the most readi- ly of any $1 medicine on their shelves, and is rapidly gaining an excellent reputation in that vicinity. Mr. William J, Pearson of St. Jehns, keeper of livery stable, and a gentleman of much practical experience relating to the diseases of horses, stated that he had used this remedy successfuily in the treatinent spavins, curbs and splints. One of his men oe his ankle, and the application of this linimert effected a cure ia a few days. He also spoke highly of it for bruises, galls and callous, produced by the harness. Those using Dr. Kendall's Spavin Cure are particularly pleased with the fact that it does not blister nor prodace soreness. This is indeed one important advantage in using this remedy, and is the result ef much study and investigution on the part of the originator. r. Joseph Monast, head stablemen at Mr. Pearson’s livery was using this liniment with good success on a valuable General Knox mare that had in seme way injured her ankle. He also stated that he had the ast winter ccmpietely removed a splint rom # horse with one-half bottie of Spavin Cure. A gentleman living-in the vicinity had removed a curb in the same way. Tyese few instances that I came across may serve as a fair representation of what the Spavin Cure is accomplishing for man and beast in Canada, Of course they are. but a moeity of what might be produced, but that is not my gblject. in. this - article. I would state to the farmers of Canada that this remedy will remeve warts from cows teats, or cure those that are chapped or cracked, for I have teated it, at is also valuable for scratches, foot-rot in cattle or sheep, and other similar dis- exses. As relates to Dr. Kendall’s book, “The Horse and its Diseases,” I found that 145,- 000 copies had been printcd of the English edition by the Gazete Publishing Company of Montreal, and seme 40,000 of ihe French by another house. This is a smal!, compact, fully illustrated work, selling for only twenty-five cents and made so plain by cuts and descriptions as to be easily comprehended by all, and will be found of great value for reference in time of need. Over 2,600,000 copies of this Look have been priated in the United States, exclusive of the German ediiion, a} feat not often accomplished in this or any other country, in the short space of two years. I would here state that Dr. Kendall is preparing a revised edition of his book, to be entitied ‘ The Doctor at Home,’ which will be issued in due time in English, Ger- man aod French. It will contain an in- creased amount of reading matter, be more fully illustrated, and treat at a great length the diseases to which the human family is subject as well as the diseases of the horse. In conclusion I would express obligation te the yentlemen who have so kindly and freely aided me in my investigations, and the satisfaction I experienced in obtaining so good a report of what is being accom— plished by Kendall’s Spavin Cure in the flourishing Dominion of Canada, and would express tlie hope that it may be but the beginning of a most successful career in the mitigation of many of the ills to which both man and beast are subject.

Dr. J, B, KENDALL & Co., Dear Sirs:—I purchased at Loujaviile, Ky., a very fine bred colt, and in ship- ing he got his hock badly hurt on the outside of the int which caused it to swell three or four times the natural size, which made him very lame. I tried a@ great many linimencs which failed to benefit the injured part. At last when disgusced, and ready to give up the colt as ruined, | happened to see your ad- vertisement of “Kendall’s Blister and Spavin Cure,” and thought I would give it a trial, I first applied the “Blister”.to the hock which by this time had calloused, and to my surprise found it worked liké a charm. In twenty-four hours the part that was hard became sof}.gnd the lameness began to leave. I then got some of ‘Kendall's Spavin Cure” and ap- plied it according to directions, which has made a rfect cure, and the colt is now as sound as any rse alive. I merely write this letter to you, asI think it a duty I owe to you, and also for the gocd of the ee at large. The foregoing statement I will affidavit to, and can also have ‘he same verified by the best horse- men in our city Who saw the colt before and after tment.

G. G. ___. > —________ The suicide of Judge Mayo is not with- outa lesson. His sons, were Readjusters and he was prevailed on to take a jadi- cial office with the expectation that he might retain his integrify and not. mix his politics with the discharge of ‘his duties. This it seems could net be suc- cessfully accemplished. He was wanted for another purpose. He was wanted to be useful. He could be of no use only by prostituting his office to some base par- pose. The old gentleman came from a rough and rugged steck. He was of the old time and had a heart of oak. He could not bend to the dictates of politicians. His position weighed en him and his mind lestits balance, | H. wae under such circumstances that he made his exit to that bourn whence no travel- er e’er returns. -In the goed old days he would have been an honor and an orna- ment to the bench fa the Old Dominion ; in these new times of bossism and ander the rule of Mahone he was out of place there. Nothing could mere thoroughly indicate the change. But we are glad to believe that this episode in Virginia’s history is now drawing to its conclu- sion. : Mahone rose as a mephitic vapor, and his star burning with singular brilliancy, bas exhausted all the subtance that gave it support. The people will repudiate him and his methods at the next election in a way that will not be misandersteod. —News and Obserrer. ee The Cotton Tax. — Justice Field’s letter to Mr. Royall, de- tailing his opinions, many of which are dear to the Southern people, bas opened up fresh interest iu the tax, a monstrous robbery that ought to be repaired. ‘The tax was declared unconstitutienal, but the money has never been restored. Judge Field’s idea of returning it to the States from which it was illegally wrested is an equitable one. The fellowing spe- cificationa will be opportane as showiug the amounts paid by each State, Alabama, $10,388,072 Arkansas, 2,555,638 California, 430 Connecticut, 1933 Florida, 918,944 Georgia, 1} 897,094 Illineis, 379,144 Indiana, 92,727 Iowa, 27 Kansas, 286 Kentucky, 553,327 Louisiana, 10,098,501 Maryland, 50.340 Massachusetts, 66,679 Mississippi, 8,742,995 Missoni, 592,008 New Jersey, 3,656 New York, 867.742 North Carolina, 1,950,704 Ohio, 447,129 Pennsylvania, 78,535 Rhode Island, 2,424 South Carolina, 4,172,420 Tennessee, 7,873,400 Texas, 5,902,401 Utah, 1,375 Total, $63,072,388 The largest amount, it will be seen, was stolen from Georgia. If retarned it would more than wipe eat our public debt, leave a large surplos in the treas- ury, and permit the State to have and hold an excess of property estimated at about 88,000,000. If the people of the East and West are disposed to be just and generous, here is achance. They will be simply retaruing stolen property and pat the South on her feet with her own moser. Wede not see why,-in the face of enormous pensions, macy of them fraudulent, the East and West should object tu the South having what belongs to her, and what commen honesty would dictate restora- tion asthe best poliey. It would not ouly prove beneficial to the Seuth, bat to the North. If this section became pros- perous and out of debt by such an act of censcience, we have no doubt that the North weuld, in the long run, get back much more than the lamp sam in the way of increased trade, vet to speak of other transactiens. Meanwhile, we de see in view of the enormous surplus in the Federal treasury, why Judge Field should be abused for saggesting that stolen funds be handed over to the par- ties from whom they were illegally and unconstitationally filched. The men who thus abuse him must have some of the lax morality of a rogue as welt as some of the stolen goeds.— Augusta (Ga.)

BRUNER, MANAGER. z Institute Fuir Building. Boston, Sept. 15, 1883, The fair may now be considered well under way, with erawds of people atten- ding, yet the work of placing exhibits in many of the displays is still geing on. This work will hardly be completed be- fore the last week in this month. Each day adds new and beautiful attractions for visitors. Coming into the building frem Hunt- ingdon Avenae, the first objects that meet the visitor, are grocers’ and drag- gists’ goods in great profusion, oil and other stoves, canned goods, soda-water and beer stands; pop-corn, maffin and griddle cake men, serving their goods hot; perfumes, soaps, &c., &c. Passing these and walking to the steps leading to the main exhibition fluor, an active, pleasing scene presents itself. In the foreground is the handsome office of the North Caralina Department of Agrical- tare, finished in imitation rosewood, add from which thoasands of documents cen- taining statistical and other information are distributed. From the rear of this office rise two palmetto palm trees (from pear Wilmington), which mark our littlé garden ef growing plants. From these objects, the oye wanders to a large sign 30 feet leng, swinging diredtly over the centre of the space occupied Ly us. This sigu is made ef leaves of mica, cut in the edges to give it a frosted appearance, and is fastened to a field of green leaves of various shades—the top edge is buug with small decorative flags. Beyond this, at the extreme far ead of eur space (an hun- dred and fifty feet from the office), is hung a large map of our State 10x25 feet, the work of Prof. Kerr, State Geologist. These objects mark the boandaries as well as give great prominence to our ex- hibit. Passing under this large map, you enter the space occupied by the Tennes- see exhibit. Beside North Carelina, their show is small—the iron, coal, zine, mar- ble, granite and the ceriale (shown in glass jars), form their attractive features. On our right flank is the fine show of the Union Pacific Railway. Surmount- ing a large pyramidal aquare, the base of which is of minerals, and the crest graius in the straw, isan evergreen tree, from which well preserved heads of deer aud buffalo protrade. The corners are decerated with staffed fowls of large size and vari- ous forms, making altogether, a pictur esque and attractive display. Next beyond this, on the same flank, is the Texas exhibit. They are just now placing it and the work will require ten days to complete. On our left flank isa haudsome oftice of North Carolina natural woods, the headquarters of the Seaboard Air Line Railway ef our State. This of- fice is of attractive design and isin charge of Mr. F. W. Clark, General Ticket and Passenger Agent. and also, of Mr. John T. Patrick, Immigration Ageat for North Carolina. Since my last our exhibition has been visited by the foreign and American guests of the commonwealth of Massa- chasetts in a body. Lord Chief Justice Coleridge is quite an imposing looking old gentleman, plainly dressed. Gov. Benj. F. Batler looks just like his picture, only a little more so. There is no veca- sion to express what passed through the writer’s mitd as he and Gov. Jarvis stood side by side. By the way, Goy. Jarvis and wife left to-day for North Carolina. ee 4 He has been courtesy and unbeunded hospitality du- ring his stay here. In showing the Governor throngh the State exhibit it was gratifying to hear his approval so heartily expressed. The Hen. Commissioner of Agrioaltare, who will probably remain with us, is as mach pleased as his Excellency, and they both say it is the largest exhibit they ever saw of any State’s reseurces. When it is made known that this whole exhibit, requiring some twenty or mare cars to bring it here, was gathered freah from the field, by ouly nine men, and that the time required for the werk embraced only frem June 10th to August 15th, the people open their eyes in wender. It has been the duty and pleasure of the writer to entertain and carry through our exhibit some of the city and country editers of this section. (Experience alone teaches how tiresome and inquisitive ed- itors are). They have, as before stated, been very partial to North Carolina, and and have viewed our “outlay” with ad- miring eyes. Ina lateedition of Harper may be seen some wood cut views of “North Carolina at the expositiun.” The photo’s were taken thie week. T.K.B.

When a mole spot is found on the right breast it is a sure sign of honesty, if on the left. it forebodes poverty ; on the chin it promises wealth, on the right ear re- spect, on the left ear dishonor.

It is from a wile to 50 miles wide jadging frem the surface indications. These indications are spriags from which petroleum may be collected, as it was in the early days on Oilcreek.

Ex- periments are pow waking with petro- leam io smelting the lew grade ores which abound in the country where the oil is found, and which have never yet been prefitably worked because of the expouse necessary in providing fuel. — EP ee France and China. Wong Ching Foo erpresseses his opinion «as to the results of the Impending War. New York, Sept. 15.—The interest manifested by the Chinese in this coun- try in the present trouble between France and China does not run so high as might vaturally be expeeted. Tu ascertain the cause of such an abscenco of feeling on the part of the Celestials, a reporter sought Wong Ching Foo, the: editor of the Chinese American, and the represen- tative of his countrymen in the Middle and Eastern States. When asked about the pending war between China and France he said: “Well, the couscquences of such a war are very apparent to me. China will not bave France alone to fight but all the Christian couanttles having residents in China.” ‘“‘How do you explain that?” “Very easily. Should the Chinese prove victorious over the French their exultation will lead them into excesses. The people are jealous of the foreigners and did they possess the power would return to the old policy of forbidding for- eign vessels ta euter their ports. Defeat to the Freneh would mean indignities to all foreigners within Chinese borders, for my people could no more determine the difference between French, English and Americans than the common classes here can between Chiuesc, Siamese and Jap- avese. And that would lead to very se- rious complications which would eventu- ally result disastronsly to the Chinese. If an Eoglishman is killed in mistake for a Frenchman or an American meets tho same fate, these goverumenuts would not be slow in calling my people to account and thus the war which France inaugu- rates is likely to iuvolve powers stronger than either Franoe or China.” “How deep is the sympathy felt by Chinamen for the home government ?” “It is not strong or deep. The present dynasty is Tartar, aud one of its fears in entering into the lista with France is that the feeling which has continued daring its 260 years reign will find veut in an effert to restore the Chinese to power.” “Is there really such a danger ?” ‘“‘In a crisis like the preseut, no, Be- tween the Tartar ruler and the Freuvch invader the choice will readily be made. The love of country alone will be strong enough to secare the sapport of the pop- alace for any measures the Government may take iu the impending war.” mae —->- aan ya « Thieves Disrohe a Sleeping Young Man, - A young man fiom South Carolina, whose name we failed to learv, came to the city a few days ago, and under. the effects of grog, lay down in ‘the lot be- hind the Central Hetel Sunday night to sleep.

New York Herald. A disturbance occurred yesterday afternoon on one of the trains from Rockaway Beach to the city over the New York & Rockaway Railroad. The train was crowded, aud all the seats were occupied. In one of the cars stood two ladies, one of whom, who was rather delicate in appear- ance, carried achild in’ her arms. Near to them stood an elderly gentle- man, tall, erect of curriage, and with white hair and beard. He was evi- dently concerned over the fact that a | lady, who seemed in delicate health, ishould be compelled to stand with a heavy child in her arms while many | men vecupied seacs around her. Asa |jolt of the car precipitated the ladies | violently forward and almost caused ithe one with the child to lose her bal- jance, the old gentleman could evi- jdently stand it no longer, He ad- | vanced to a seat close to the ladies in | which were comfortably ensconced four young men, “Gentlemen,” he said, with every outward show of courtesy, but with a | voice, “permit me to call your atten-| He has visited a number of towns jtion to the fact that there are two la- i dies standing here who have Leen un- lable to find seats, One of these ladies | (is embarrassed with a child.” ‘1 he young nen, W ho were of the noby” dressed, self sufficient type of jelly youth, stared insoleatly at the | speaker, | ‘We've paid our fare,’ answered | or e of the young men in a saffron | necktie, ‘and we’re entitled to seats.’ | ‘If you make that a point,’ said the | | | 66 | } old gentleman, sooner than see these | j ladies stand, IT will refund you your fures in return for the two seats. ‘We don’t want your money,’ re- torted the young man, who had spok- ‘\ ¢ Just want (en before, insolently. }(u stay where we are,’ | The old man flushed angrily, ‘1 jcome from the South,’ said he, ‘and if | there a man were to act as you do luucder these circumstances, we should | | look upon him as a cur and piteh him lout of the window,’ } *Do you call mea cur? screamed the young fellow, springing to his feet. | ‘Do you refuse to relinquish your sent?” ‘Yes; and do you call me a cur?’ ‘I consider you to be far lower than a cur,’ As the old gentleman uttered these word the young fellow made a threat- ening motion, but the old man was too quick for him. He drew back opponent a stiuging slap on the cheek. lustantly he exectued a similar ma- ne@uvre with his left hand. The swacks rang out loud and clear above the rnmbling ucise of the train. ‘The young man was staggered and _ his companions sprang up to assist him. Other passengers, however, whose at- tention had been attracted by the quarrel, sprang to the old gentleman’s side and prevented any further vio- lence. The ladies, to whom attention had been attracted by the old gentle- man’s interference in their behalf, had, unnoticed by him, been provided with seats by fellow passengers a few seconds before the quarrel culminated in the warming of the whippersnap- per’s ears, —_ A — A Toreepo EXPLODES IN THE Srreet.—As the Southern Express Company’s big wagon was on the way to the depot yesterday afternoon, it ran overarailroad torpedo in the street near the court hoyse, and a commotion was raised.

Martin is an old slave of Gen. John B, Gordon, of Georgia, and got his ideas of railroading from his old master.

The well known fact, that. a cow will give more milk and make more batter on a bright sunshiny day than doring one of a dull, dark character is strong argument in favor of having our winter stables so arn that the animals may get the benefit of plenty of sunshine. If possible, have the cows on the south side of the barn, and provide plenty of windows.

He says that, in fact, he learned of but one instance of a man’s coming there who never drank at all.

Recently he paid three thousand dol- lars for a volnme of Italian stories, hand-illstrated in pen and ink by Miss Alexander, duughter of a form- er Beston artist, now residing in Flor- ence. In a lecture at Oxford, Mr. Raskin said in this connection, “I would fain have said an English girl, but all my prejudices have Jately had the ax laid to their root, oue by one ; she is an American. ~_-—— — — American tomatoes are being ships ped in large quantites to London clubs, A poplar tree was recently cut down near Moultric, Ala., that measured 58 feet at the Lut aud 160 in length.

The largest cattle ranch in the world is said to be that of Chas. Goodnight, at the head of Red River, Texas. He began buying land four years ago, se- curing 270,000 acres at 35 cents per acre. In the meantime the price has advanced from $1 to $2 per acre, but he is still buying and controls 700,- 000 acres. To inclose his landed pos- sessions 200 Miles of fence is requir- ed. On the range he has 40,000 cattle. Earl Carnarvon, who arrived at Montreal from England a few days ago, is-shortly to visit the battle ground at Saratoga at the invitation vf the Monument Association. He will also visit the place where his great aunt in September, 1777, em- barked on the Hudson in a frail boat at midnight to visit her husband ; who was a wounded prisoner in the camp of General Gates. The Wilmington Star of Thursday gives a three column. account of the storm, detailing the damage at the sound, in the city and at Smithville, The wind reached a velocity of nine- ty five miles an hour at Smithville, all the pilot boats were sunk, and dozens of ships were blown ashore.

Sot eee mite sales and great success of ALLCOCK’s Porous PiasTers have caused numerous plasters to be. brought before the public which, be- ing called porous, would give the world to understand that they were a similar article) to the genuine, We would most particular ly caution the public against these hum- bugs. They contain none of the healing gums that are used in ALLcocx’s, but are simply a combination of lead, red pepper and rubber, and are vaunted in long wind- ed advertisements as an improvement on ALLcock’s Porous Piasrers. Beware of the hazy and untrue statements and never use any of these so-called porous frauds. Allcock’s Porous Plasters Relieve Debility and Nervousness. ALLcock’s PLASTERS worn on the region of the kidneys warms the spinal marrow which is a continuation of the brain, im- parting new vitality and power tothe pine they stregthen that mighty organ and fill it full of foreign electricity Or nervous fluid. Thus they wil! restore to the busy active brain of man or woman, the energy and ability which has been lost by disease, wor ry or overwork. They restore yitality where there has been debility and nervous- ness, and prevent loss of memory and pa- ralysis. Physicians highly recommend them for nervous debility, whether arising . from dissipation or overwork. They. are now known to be the great regenerators of the nervous system and ure invaluable in all cases of hysteria. —__ -- - Weal Kidneys Cured. Contoocook, N. H., March 3, 1880 I have been greatly troubled with Rheu— matism and Weak Kidneys. I was advised to try ALLcock’s Porous PLasTers (had used two other kinds of so-called Porous Plasters which gave me no relief,) but one of yours has worked like a charm, giving me complete relicf, and I have not been troubled with Rheumatism and Kidney Complaint since using them, and I consider myself cured.

Spinal Discase cured, Hammer's Horren, RocKAWAY Breacu, N. Y., May 19, °82. ALLCocK’s PLASTERS have been of such great service to me and mine that I feel it a duty to state the facts, as briefly as possi ble, to induce others to usethem. My wife for many years was confined to her bed suffering from spinal disease. After spend ing a thousand dollars in vain effort to get cured, she applied three ALLcocK’s PLas— TERS to the spinal column, one above the other. Tu afew days all) pain left her. She applied fresh plasters every two weeks and in the course of two months she com- pletely recovered her health. At first she could hardly walk across the room; each day she walked a little further, and now she is able to walk five miles without fa- tigne. She still occasionally applies the plasters to her back, but she has been per- fectly well for upward of a year. LEWIs L. HAMMEL. CURE OF SPRAIN. 554 Main St., HARTFORD, Conn., ) April 26, 1879. Vill you please send me an ALLcock’s Porous PLAsTeR, 20 inches long by 7 inches wide, to use on my back for weak ness of kidneys, J have wern them with the best curative effect, for a weak side near the heart, many ycars—far injury caus, ed by strain and lifting in the army. I could not do without them; I use one about every month. I have on a Belladonna Plaster and don’t like it at all, for it has not the power or strength of AL.Lcock’s Porovs PLasters. B. WELLS SPERRY. “A Blessing in Disguise.” 484 ApELPut St., Brooxiyn, March 29, 1881. No family should be without ALLcock’s Powous PLasters; their healing powers are wonderful and their efficacy far-reaching and lasting. For years past I have seen and known them to cure and relieve the most obstinate and distressing cases of rheumatism, kidney complaint, bronchitis, neuralgia, lumbago, inflamation of the lungs and throat, patalysis, asthma, spinal weakness, and coughs and colds, In my own case they afferded me almost instant and permanent relief. My friends consider them an invaluable and speedy remedy 1 all kinds of aches and pains. They are a blessing in disguise; and no wife or mother should be without them if she values her peace and comfort and freedom from ner- vous exhaustion and other ailments, As a strengthening plaster, also for backaches and weakness, they have no equal. I have never yet found a plaster so efficacious and stimulating, or to give so much general sat, isfaction. Used in connection with Brax- DRETH’S universal life-giving and life-heal- ing Pris, no one need despair of a speedy restoration to good seund health. MRS. E. TOMPKINS.

And each looked on the same landscape and saw it alike at last. It was a relief to both George and Alice that there was service in the Jit- tle church that morning, and every- body would be looked for there. Se- cret sorrow finds a cerfain abatement of its intensity in the effort of appear- ing unconcerned, Then there is a nrournful pleasure in seeing what one has lost. . In a place no larger than Marsham every one knows everybody else. Ev- ery one knows the business of every- body in some degree, or think so, or say so. So our two freinds were known, and their relations to each other were known also. And so poorly had they played their parts that when service was finished nearly all their friends had concluded that their engagement was over, and inany were speculating as to the reasou for it. Ralph Warden was too shrewd a man not to see what every one else saw. He said but little about it as he Spoke to one and another after church, but he was deeply interestod and ve- ry much puzzled.

Jt ineatit to abolish the tax ou needleas lux- ntiva.— Wilmington Star, Sept. 24th. We dissent to this. The aim aod pur- ‘pose of the State Convention cagpot be ore explicitly expressed than it is dn the resolution heretofore qnoteds; and the people of the State understood it as di- rected against a system which was de- moralizing avd barrassing a large part of the commuwity: fifting the federal court dockets with distressing suits, stripping «our people of their property ; employing a horde of federal officers who went aboat doing mischief under the protection of laws which set at defiance the laws and power of the State. No one is better in- formed than the Siar of the object of the resolation nor of the arguments employ- cd iv its favor om the stamp by every Democratic speaker from Cherokee to Currituck. It knows very well that it vas pota war against a tax on “useless Juxuries,” but a war against a stapendous political, morul and seeial evil, em ploy edd by the party in possession of the federal government for perpetaating its power und subverting the will of the white peo- ple of the State. If was a war against a system which made it possible fur the federal goverument to coutrol the politics of the State and bring into power the untytored negrves to rule ite destinies. ‘Lhe question of taxing luxuries was sunk in the grander aim of uprooting a system su fureigu to the ideas and habits of our people, and 80 threatening to the best in- terests of the State. ‘The resvlution was dlictated by the well known sentiment of the State, aud there is no evidence that the people of North Carona to-day regard jt as a /stupendus blunder.” We feel sure that nv Democrat Convention that may hereafter assemble will sivg'e out that resvlution aud denounce itas a ‘stu- pendyus blunder ;” and we coufess to no Jittle surprise that the Star should be in- cessantly harping against a measure of jts own party, so thoroughly sustained by reason and the common consent of the white people of the State. To Stn At — We concur with the Tarboro Southern- er, that there is neither sense nor reason jn apy disagreement between men who, before the war, were whigs and demo- crats. ‘The results of the war necessita-— ted a pew cast of pasties in the South, and coerced members of the old parties to unite for the preservation of the rights, liberties and property interests left them after that terrible struggle. It wasa perfectly nataral coalesence, based on caunees abundantly satisfactory to both. Nor has there transpired anything to weaken the bands between them. Quite the contrary. And every intelli- gent Southern man who affects to see more evil ina “Solid South” than in the ruinous tendency of republican rule, may well be guspected of hankering for the spoils with which the desperate party is able to reward its followers. ES = A story having its origiv on the exper- jence of two city men out huntiug in the monntajus of Pennsylvania, who lwid down to sleep jn a cavjn used by hunters, goes farto establish the fact that the sickening odor emitted by the rattle- spake is poisonous to baman beings, and if breathed fur long enough time, may cause death. In this case the two men were nearly overcome with dizziness, and were only relieved after copious vomit- ing aud gving out of the cabin into the open air, where they remaived until morning. They discovered in the cabin, near where they had slept, five rattlesnakes, which escaped through holes and cracks on their approach. ——> nD pi ———__ We acknowledge an invitation from the “Virginia State Agricultural Society,” to attend a fair to be held Oct. 3let, Nov.

A dispatch from Pottsville, Pa. 14th inst., sars: “William Runyan and his wife were foand dead iu their bed this moruing at their home in Millville, Columbia coanty, four miles from Bloomsburg, with thei: throats cut from ear to ear. William Runyau was a prominent citizen and the owner of one of tho finest farms in that valley, upon which he built a resideuce on the occasion of his marriage, which took place last February. His bride, an accomplished and beantiful girl, was the daughter of a retired farmer, aud the cel- ebration of the nuptials, only seveu months ago, was one of unusual brilliaa- ey, the festivities lasting for several days on account of the high social stauding of the groom and bride and the large vum- ber of friends present at the marriage ceremony. The happy couple took an extended wedding tour and apoep their return moved into the handseme residence referred to above. At an early hour this morning a pam- ber of friends started out for the parpose of calling on the young coaple aad speyd- ing the day with them, They reached the house about seven d’cloek, but fonnd everything securely locked up. They waited eutside, expecting every moment to be admitted, but, there being no sign of anyoup poming, ovp ar two of the par- so the house throagh a side win- wand went up stairs. On eutering the bedroom an awful sight met their gaze. Upou the bed lay the partly de com bodies of the young cuuple, witlr their throats cut from ear to ear. The visiters were horrified, gnd the news of the terrible tragedy was quickly circu- lated threaghoat the village. A great crowd seon gathered around, eager to see the murdered couple. Their relatives arrived, and after quietness had been restored an examiuation of the room was made. On the bed between the two victims was found the knife which did the bloody work. Although everything iu and about the room was stained with blood there was no indicatjon of a great struggle, and the perpetrators of the crime left no clew hind them, Wil- liam Ranyan was twenty-four and his wife nineteen years of age, and their aw- fal death is he theme of conversation thropghout the whole ceuptry ta-night, Some are inclined to think patina fit rary insanity the husband killed and then himself; but this is not , dated of tem his wi urip days of their ore they were inseparable, and were truly devoted to each other after marriage.” —_— Jovathan B.

I tried a great many lintmenis which failed to benefit the injured part, At last when disgusced, and ready to give up'the colt as rmined. I happened to see your ad- vettisement of “‘Kepdall’s Blister and Spayin Cure,” and thought | would yive it a trial, I first applied the “Blister” to the heck which by this time had calloused, and to my surprise found it worked like a charm. In twenty-four hours the part that was hard became soft and the lameness began to leave. I then got some ot “Kendali's Spavin Cure” and ap- plied it according to directivos, which hus mudea sabia cure, and the colt is now as sound as any orse alive.

Boston, Mass., Sept. 21, 1883. The most welcome change here this week is the marked: improvement-n at- tendance. It is more than doable that of last week. The indications are that when the great system of excursivns, which is 80 arranged as to not only accommodate all New England, bat sections more re- mote, shall pour iu their thousands, the attendance will amount to a throng, These excuasrions begin the first of Octo- ber and last through the month. It is very esseutial to the success of North Caroliva’s great effort that the attendance be large; for otherwise our mi&nrmouth collection would be shorn of its strength. There need be no apprehension on this score, however. pounds each, average. As he looked he said: “Why Rowan seems to be the boss county.” Of these 110 specimens, Rowan has 26—nearly one-fourth. These ores are of special interest iu that they show an immense variety from a source prue- tically inexbaustable. Next we come to the copper ores, some twenty-tive bright specimens, varying from lean ores to the highest grades of prill and gray copper. When the extent and value of these were recited, the ar- gentifferous gulena next coasmimnded at- tention. These were from some dozen localities, and of considerable interest. Some forty specimens of iron ore are next examined—ores of all grades, magnitite, hematite, limonite, spathic ore, or sider- &c. ‘*Well,” says our visitor, ‘'l never would have believed it; I have heard North Carolina talked, bat I was unprepared for this.” Now look at the marbles—a table full) of nicely polished specimens—all colors ; black, white, dove, rose avd variagated, very attractive for all oruumental work. Building stones? Yes, here they are. Gravites, from fifteen localities—white, black, green, red, gray, Seotel and por- phyritic; sandstone, from eleven local: - ties—red, brown and yellow; gveiss— solid colors, stripped and spotted ; ser- pentinves of several shades ; syenite from three or more loealities, including Doun’s Mountain” in Rowan; lJeopardite (segre- gations of manganese in quartz porphyry) showing both the spots and the ferns and mosses. All of these are highly polisted and created much favorable comment among all visitorsand especially s0 among quarrymep and stonemasons, Besides these there are, in the rough, ten or more varieties of tale or soapstone from vari- ous localities, embraciug all grades frow purest tale to ordinary gray soapstove ; shell-rock, itacolumite, hone-stone, grind- stone and willstove grit. A very inter- estivy collection of stones. The Davie couvuty spotted stone bearg the pame of “orbicular granite” uniil some higher lauthority changes the appellation. Now look at those piles of wood, a hun- dred and fifty-eight stamps of huge trees fresh from the forest, cat in disks of trom | ove to foar feet, and arranged ia order. Some of these are from five to six feet in iameter, while the whole lot will proba- bly avernge 2} feet. Walking between this display of wood and long showcases of bright, golden tobaeco, until you reach the other end of oar space, where it is | well to panse and look at the precious stones, some cut and some set io gold. Charles W. Wheeler, of Charlotte, has | his private cabiuet of cut gema here, aud J. A, D. Stephenson, of Statesville, part of bis eabinet. Mr. Sephenson’s cabinet contains crystals and rare miverals of acientitic interest mainly. The most beantiful and expensive precious stones are displayed by Pref. W, E. Hidden. It may be well to state what ibey are, to- gether with their value. Amoug the most neteworthy are two cryatals ef emerald, ove 5 inehes long and the ether 3}, the two baving an aggregate value of $1,500 as they are, in their rough state. Two crystals of Hiddeuite, transparent aud of fine color, om a natvix of hard quarizite, valued at $500. A pair of cat earriugs $250, and a beautiful small, stad set io solid gold worth $60, both of hiddenite. A citrine topaz of unblemished transpa- rency and very Jarge size—as Inrge asa pariridge egg—worth about $400, and a smoky topaz, nearly three times the size of the first named, of a pleasing ehocolate brown color—value 8150. A pair of yel- low spodumenes, beautifal as diamonds, worth $200 the pair. A qnamariues, gar- nets (almest ruby color), rutile, ‘*fech Vamour,” ete., of value from $10 to $50 each. This whole collection, embracing not only the cabinets mentioned above, but the numberless gatherings of the late Prof. Humphreys, of Greensboro, excites much attention from scientific people, and is the admiration uf all vistors. In the early part ef the week we were visited by embassies of Corea aad of the West India Islands,and yesterday by Gov. Cameron and party, of Virginia.

Immigration. We have received frequent requests trom Mr. John T. Patrick, Agent of Iim- migration fer our State, to pablish arti- cles calling attention to his work. We have been unable, for want of space, to cowply. He has recently opened an office at 18 West 4th Street, New York, and has placed in charge of it, Mr. Tilman R. Guines, a gentleman said to be deeply interested ju this work, and well quali. fied to conduct it. He hgs, according to accounts, been eminently siecouatal in inducing immigration to Soath Carolina. We eheerfully pablish this statement, showing the arramagements in use for presenting the inducements for settlers to come tov North Carolina; bat we can- not give that enthasiastic cundorsement to immigration shemes, which seems to be the atyle of thought and speech in vogue at the present time. Iu our jadgment immigration is not av anmixed good, and whether it bea blessing ora curse de- pends upon the character of the immi- grants. Let good, thrifty, honest, indus- trious people be welcomed to our bor- ders. They will add something to the eourmunity ; bat we are persuaded that aboat the chief good done by a large proportion of the people sowing amongst us is to swell the census tables, From the beer drinking, Sabbath breaking, anti- Christian hordes that bave swarmed iuto some portions of the North may we be perpetually and forever delivered. ‘The population of the State is increas- ing by natural processes much more rapidly tham our means for intellectual and iworgl development. To educate, Christiavize and elevate our present population is a mach more important work than tuo induce others to come amongst us. The true interests of the commouwealth will be much better sub- served by edacation than by immigration. By the way, dues not this eagerness and elamor for immigration spring from an over-estimate of the importance of mate- rial growth and prosperity? Material advapcemeut is not the greatest blessing of which a community is capable, any more than itis the greatest blessing of which av individual is capapable. To be “rich and increased with guads” is not to be regarded as the summum bonum ef human society. That immigration is desirable which will not diminish the high standing of North Carotivs for virtue and jutegrity, but which . go the contrary will add to it. That imniigra- tion which will lower the standard of morality amovgst us is undesirable, though it bring willjons uf money into our borders, —_——_—_—_—_6gpo—____—__—_ Ready Made Houses. This a basinvess that is assuming im- portance in the North and that wonld seein to be an inviting one for avy locality in the South where suitable lumber and cheap transportation can be had. It is carried on successfully in Maine, the re- motest of the Eastern States, from which to reach the bady of the eountry, and especially this quarter of it, renders necessary the paymeut of heavy trans- portation charges. The inference there- fore is vataral that the business can be condacted profitably in the Soath. Re- ferring to ove of tae companies engaged in the ees: the Kennebec Framing Company, the Bangor Mining aud Indus- trial Journal has the following : ‘*Dwell- ing houses are made like boots aad shoes—in any quantity or of apy size or style, and forany marketin the wide world.

The Baltimore Sun of Monday has the following relative to a fast freight line to be known as the “Great Soathern Dis- patch.” This is an importaut movemeut and it behooves our mereantite comm uni- ty to be on the alert: The San says: A vew fast freight line, to be known as the “Great Southern Dispatch,” is vow being orgavized by the East .Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia, Norfolk and Wes- tern, Shenandvah Valley, Western Mary - land, Camberland, Valley and Pennay|- vavia railroads, to run between all south- erp and southwestern points aud Baualti- more, Philadelphia and New York. No annoaucement has yet beceu made of the time of ivaugurating the line; but it will doubtless be ready for business within the next thirty days. The live will start with 5UU cars piovided by the several cow- panies in proportion to their interested mileage. This is the firat thiough south- erv freight line ever established with Baltimore, and in that respect it is to the business community the most important ruilroad movement contemplated for some time. The East and West fast freight lines of the Pennsylvania, Baltimore aud Ohio, and the other trank lives are con- spicuously known everywhere and their basiness is enormous. The maio stem of the new Great South- ern Dispatch will be 1,190 miles long, from New York to Chattanooga, or Sel- ma, bat its cars will be sent to all points east of New York and all over the South and Southwest. There will be vo limit in the pamber of its cars which ean be commanded by the Baltimore trade, for the mileage proportion assigned to thie Westerv Maryland will bave nothing to do with that matter. If Baltimore yives sufficient basiness to employ 300 cars she will get them. The Pennsylvania has entered into the compact on behalf of the Cumberland Valley, from Hagerstown to Harrisburg, its main line fr there to Philadelphia, and the Uni Railroads of New Jersey to New York.; Thé. Wes- tern Maryland joins the combination in the interest of Baltimore, whieh, as fast freights are run, will have about twenty- four hours advantage in time, over New York, and a fair recognition in the mat- ter of low rates over more distant Eastern points. The several companies are hav- the cars assigned for the line painted and lettered aceornling to the adopted designs and ju a few daya a sample ear will be sent ou to the Wesetera Maryland from the Shenandoah Valley shops at Roavoke, Va. The Western Maryland has largely increased its sauthern tratic the present year, and the organization of the fast freight line, with that company iucluded in it, is vo doubt partly due to the snae- cessful efforts of its officers in developing that branch of trade.” ———_—-— The Shields Verdict. It ia not within the province of the press to prejudge the fate of any man charged with crime, and for this reason we have refrained from comment on the verdict in the case of Thomas L. Shields until the justice of that verdict might be tival- ly considered by the bighest court of the State. We would gladly continue to be sileut on the subject, but wheu the local press of distant counties iudalge in re- fections apon Mecklenburg: juries, or usurp the right of the community iv which au offender is knowht "to petition the executive for his pardon, we think it proper and right that we shduld have a word in their defense, The Tarboro Southerner, a down-east contemporary, roceeding on the priuciple that “au mbe jary would never have allow- ed jt—never !” issues a proctamatiou to Gov, Jarvis and demands the pardon of Shields in big capitals like these: Par- DON HIM INSTANTLY! “Fre Statesville American, after drawing’s strange con- trast between the verdict jeg the negro Willis Davia and that ea Bhielile, asks: “*Ie this the protection shat femnles re- ceive at the bands af a Mecklenburg jury?” This is what we cal’ deud criti- cism. It is the venture of an opiviou by these who pever heard the trl on the men who heard every word from begin- ning toend. We sappose a jury picked from good and lawful meu of Mecklen- barg are quite as capable of appprecia ting the manly revenge of a female wrong as an Edgecombe jary, but the drfference between them in this case is that the story of seduction was heard aud disbe- lieved by the jury iu the case, and the Edgecombe meu have not beeu ealled on to pass upon it as jurors. Shields set up two defenses ; the seduction of his sister and self-defense. ‘Toward the end of his case he relied mainly on the latter plea. If a jury of good men disbelicved one of them and thoaght the other improbable, we fail to see good reason for criticism by thoze who never heard the evidence. Loud criticism is not always correct, and and proclamatious to the Governor may sometimes be out of eeasun.——Journal-Ub- server. — The plan of asing the electric light in lighthouses has been carried out in a new lighthouse at South Head, on the Eng- lish coast, with the happiest resalts.

Evans, one ef the bravest men whe han- dled a musket or a sabre during the'war, has this to say in his paper, the Milton Chronicle, about Pat Winston, Jr.: ‘In 1874—'75 Pat Winston beat us for Reading Clerk of the Senate. The patri- ots of the Democratic party thought us too mach tinctured with Repablicanism. We den’t know what they thought of Jim Hill, of Stokes, who also ran, except that he fons thre the war as a private, plowed a stab-tail ball at home, and bad | a wife and six aniall children to scuffle for. Anyhow we twe votes and Jim Hill got four, and Pat raked in the rest. It was said then that Pat was son-in-law toa millionaire, and oh, my ladies, how the patriots did toady. It is refreshing to gaze back over a stretch ef years and pe- culiarly pleasing to note time’s changes with the patriots and their pets. Cle Mr. S.G.

A dose of Brandreth’s Piils removes the matter and the disease is cured. In costiveness one good dose of Brandreth’s Pills, followed by one pill every night fora week ortwo, make the boman machinery run as regular us clock work. In bad colde, where the pores of the skin are closed and the insen-{ sible perspiration thrownupon the blood, pois- oning the fountains of life and filling the nose, the throat and the lungs with choking mucus; seven Brandreth’s Pills taken at night on an empty stomach, will restore the perspiration, break up the cold and purge away al) the wa- tery secretions that should have.passed off by the skin. Diphtheria, a fumily disease and a most dangerous one, is almost immediately cured by ove or two doses of Brandreth’s Pills, aided by a gargle of lime water. Khumatism, which comes from too much 4cidity or too much alkalinity of the system, requires noth- ing but Brandreth’s Pilla and a few good aweats to makea perfect cure.

ALFRED Brunson, A,M., D_D. CURE OF NEURALGIA. Taken asa ‘‘Forlorn Hope,” Brandreth’s Pills Effsct{a ‘Magical Cure.—Small- Pox Cured. Schenck Ave., East New York, April 12, 1880. I most cordially give my testimony as to the great value of Brandreth’s Pills, verified by eigliteen years’ experience in my mother’s (the late Mre, Dr. Geg M Browne) tamily und my own, They were at first tuken usa “for- lorn hope,” tor the cure of a very severe case of Neuralgia of several yearg’ standing, the patient being completely prostratcd by disease and the excessive use of upium, takeu to dead- en the pajn (by adyice of her phynician.) The eflects were ulmost magical; in one month she was able jo be up and walk around freely, and the disease has never returneds My mother was also cured of an attack of. Inflamatory Rhumatiam by the game medha Aboat six years ago I was taken with what appeared to be a bad cold, but in a short time, symtoms of confluent Small Pox were developéd, casing us much alarm. I determined to try Brand- reth’s Pills eg a remedy, and their efficacy was soon appafent. J was well much sooner than was expected, and without receiving a single mark or trouble of any kind. Jt is my firm belief, judging from the severity of the case, that had I gone through the regular routine oreacribed by physicians, J should haye died. know of many other instances of | the value of Brandreth’s Pills jn diseage and sicknesa, which I will be happy io give tg any ane who willapply to me.

W ASHINGTON, Sept. 20.—The civil service commissioners to-day received a letter from ex-representative Dezen; dort, of Virginia, stating that Mr. O: Ciark, Senator Mahone’s political as- sessinent agent, nude an assessment last week of 5 per cent on the sala- ries received by all of the employes of the Norfolk navy yard, and that this was the third assessmevt levied upon the same employes by the same man inside af a year. civil service commissioner, said to- day, when asked about the letter, as it had just been received no investigation had yet been made of the charges or sentiments contained in it. Cutef examiner Lyman sail he had been informed that Clark was nota gov- erument employe and therefore did not geome under the law. Senator Mahone was chairman of the com- mittee and it was ap interesting ques- tion how far the uets of Clark ag treasurer involved the other members of the committee. _— aa The New-Fashioned School-Marm, A Chicago paper gets enthusiastic over the feminine school teacher in the following style: “And so there are more school- marms going to Europe for the sum- mer vacation, according to late reports, than any other class of American citi- zens! Hurrah for the schoolmarms! Bless their hearts! We hope they will have a goud time and enjoy them- selves, ancl we are sure they will; we know of no class that has a better right to go or who will reflect more credit on American institutions. The intelligent and successful schoolmarm of to-day is the beautiful flower of developing, growiug, expanding, as- picing womanhood. No more signifi- cant fact could be pointed out as in- dicating the rapid changes that are taking place in the position and in- fluence of women, than to compare the schoolmarm of to-day with the schoolmarm of the past. Tine school- marm of the past was respected but com miserated, “But the schoolmarm of to-day isa totally different being. She is proud of her membership in a profession whose dignity and importance are ev- ery day being more widely recognized. She enters upon her work with en- thusiasm and perfurms it with the disposition and aims of the artist. She dresses well, and is cheerful and jhappy, Out of school she believes in seeing life and enjoying herself. And we may be sure that the American schoolmarm will soon be readily re- cognigzed by any close observers of persons and manners im that throng of uew world travelers in the old world. She will be distinguished by neat, elegant, covenient aula censor ate dress; by the absence of all un- necessary trappings and bundles; by her genuine, care-free und hearty in- terest in everything ; by her quiet, composed self respect aud sel f-respect- ing manners. “When she returns she will bring with her a few genuine treasures of remembrance, but will not probably attempt to smuggle kid gloves and lace. The American schoolmarm is indeed one of the most important and most admirable of American institu- tions, All bail the sehoolmarm who 18:ly goes to Europe for her yacation.” = sie wesione a Dr. Gregory, | Know Thyself. — The ayerage weight of an adult is 140 Ibs. 6 oz.

AGRICULTURAL EXPERIMENT StTA- TION, RaLeEiGH, N.C. Mesars. Jus. H. Enniss & Son: Dean Sirn:—I think one of the best home-made manures for wheat ° ithout the use of cotton seed, is the following: Auy geod acid Phosphate, 1,000 Tbs. Sulphate ammeania, 100 + Muariate Potash, 10K) *¢ Stable manure, 800 * 2,000 This is best prepared by having layers of stable manure and acid phosphate al- ternately, and sprinkling each layer with the mariate potash and sulphate ammon- in dissolved in water. Use 400 tbs. of this compost to the acre. The formula has been tried and every wherere given satis— faction. A very good compost when cetton seed can be obtained is the following: Dissolved Bone, 450. Ibs. Nitrate Potash, 50 * Stable manure, 800 « Cotton seed, 25 bushels. This when applied at the rate of 600 pounds per acre has been known to in- crease the yield from 6 to 20 bushels per acre of first class wheat. Would like to call your attention to Yan Borens wheat manure which is very simple and does away with chemicals entiiely.

The most welcome change here this week ia the marked improvement in at- tendance. It is more than double that of last week. The iudications are that when the great system of excursions, which is 80 arranged as to not only accommodate all New England, bat sectiens more re- mote, shall pour iu their thousands, the attendance will amount to © throng. These excusrions begiu the first of Qeto- ber and last throagh tle month. It is very esseutial to the suecves of North Carolina’s great effort that the attendance Le large; for otherwise our mammouth collection would be shorn of its strength. There need be no apprehension on this score, however. Some material improvement in the more tasteful and artistic arranging of exhibits is always gving on, and is, of course, much more noticeable to the occasional visitor than those constautly here. It may be well to remark that our exhibit has been very much complimented for its ar- rangement, which is attractive and sys- tematic. Our people may wish to know some- thing definite of what we have here and how it strikes the visitor. Suppose we look around. ‘To-day, a scientific man of some prominence from New York city, visited us. He said he had seen so much in the papers about North Carolina’s ex- hibit that he made the journey purposely to see it. Beginning with the gold orcs, he was shown through. Of the gold ores there are 110 mill specimens, of say 80 pounds each, average. As he looked he said; ‘Why Rowan seems to be the boss county.” Of these 1i0 specimens, Rowan has 26—nearly one-fourth. These are of special interest iu that they show an immeuse variety from a source prac- ores tically inexhaustable. Next we come to the copper ores, some | twenty-five bright specimens, varying from leauv ores to the highest grades of prill and gray copper. When the extent and value of these were recited, the ar- gentifferous galena next commanded at- tention, These were from dozen logalities, aud of considerable interest. Some forty specinieus of iro ore are next examinced—ores of all grades, magnitite, hematite, limovite, spathic ore, or sider- ite, &c. **Well,” says our visitor, “T| never would have believed it; I have heard North Carolina talked, bat LT was | unprepared for this.” Now look at the marbles—a table fall | of nicely polished specimens—all colors ; | black, white, dove, rose and variagated, | very attractive for all ornamental work. Building stones? Yes, here they are. | Gravites, from fifteen localities white, | black, green, red, gray, Seotch and por- phyritic; sandstone, from eleven locali- | ties—red, brown and yellow; gneiss g0Tne solid colors, stripped and spotted ; ser pentines of several shades; syenite from | three or more localities, including “Daun’s Mountain” in Rowan; leopardite (segre- gations of manganese in quartz porphyry) showing both the spots and the ferns and mosses. All of these are highly polished and created mach favorable comment among all visitors,and especially soamoug quarrymen and stone-masons, Besides these there are, in the rough, ten or more varieties of talc or suapstone from vari- vous localities, embracing all grades from purest talc to ordinary gray soapstone ; shell-rock, itacolumite, hone-stone, grind. stone and millstone grit. A very inter- esting collection of stones. The Davie county spotted stone bears the name of “orbicular granite” until some higher authority changes the appellation. Now look at those pilea of wood, a hun- dred and fifty-eight stumps of huge trees fresh from the forest, cut in disks of from one to four feet, and arranged in order. Some of these are from five to six feet in diameter, while the whole lot will proba- bly average 2t feet. Walking between this display of wood and long showcases of bright, golden tobacco, until you reach the other end of our space, where it is well to pause and look at the precious stones, some cut and some set in gold. Charles W. Wheeler, of Charlotte, has his private cabinet of cut gems here, and J. A. D. Stephenson, of Statesville, part of his cabinet. Mr. Sepheuson’s cabiuet contains crystals and rare minerals of scientific interest mainly. The most beautiful and expensive precious stones are displayed by Prof. W, E. Hidden. It may be well to state what they are, to- gether with their value. Among the most noteworthy are two crystals of emerald, one 5 inches long aud the other 3}, the two having an aggregate value of $1,500 as they are, in their rough state. ‘Two erystals of Hiddeuite, transparent and of fine color, on a vatrix of hard quartzite, valued at $500. A pair of cut earrings $250, and a beautiful small stud set iv solid gold worth $60, both of hiddenite. A citrine topaz of unblemished transpa- rency and very large size—as large asa rtridge egg-—worth about $400, and a SAWL TAYLOR. smoky topaz, nearly three times the size ra, but Mrs. Poole low spodumenes, beautifal as diam worth $200 the pair. A quamarines, gar- nets (almest raby color), rutile, ‘fleck @amour,” ete., of value from $10 to $50 l This whole collection, embracing | ‘lings a week income. No answer came each. not only the cabinets mentiored above, but the numberless gatherings of the late Prof. Humphreys, of Greensboro, excites much attention from scieniitic people, and is the admiration of all vistors. Ip the early part of the week we were visited by embassies of Corea and of the West India Islands,aud yesterday by Gev. Cameron and party, of Virginia.

She was a very pretty girl, and she knew it, and did her best, in an inuo- cent sort of way, to let other people know it, and she could not help think- ing, as she wafked along the Feltham road, that keeping company with Tom | Dawlish—who was just a plain, hon- est, hard-working young felllow—was rather a waste of time, and that mar- rying him would be altogether throw- ing herself away. Her reflections came to an end at the door of Messrs. Bradbury’s office, and she walked in wholly intent ou the bill she had to pay, A smart looking young man received the mon- ey; When the receipt was made out, und she turned to go, she found the shower, which bad threatened for some time, Was coming down with a ven- geance. “Oh! dear,” she said, “and I have no utubrella.” : ‘Wait here a few miautes, Miss; it will soon be over,’ said the smart young man; and then having accept- ed his offer of shelter Mary found her- self after a minute or two, thinking that he was a very nice young gentle- man (as she afterwards described him to the cook), and that he had beauti- | ful hair—it was so nicely curled, and he bud a little dark noustache, and wore such a pretty blue necktie; ob, he was very nice looking indeed. ‘Are you Miss Poole’s sister?’ he asked, after u few minutes’ conversa- tion. Mary flushed as she replied truthfully—for she was far too guod a irl even to equivocate—that she was not sucha distinguished individual, bat valy the housemaid and chamber- maid combined. And then he asked what her name was; and with anoth- er blush she told hin that it was Cla- IL Was too fine a name for aservant, and so call- ed her Mary. ‘TP shall call you Clara,’ he said— ‘shall 12’? he added, with an appeal- Mary felt her heart beat faster ; something seemed to tell her that her destiny had come and she had no words to utter, so he followed up bis successful sally with another vne: “Do you ever yet out of an eve- ning for a walk ‘Sometimes,’ she said, softly. ‘Will you go out for a walk with me next time?’ ‘It wouldn’t be right ; you are quite strange, you see,’ she answered softly. ‘Oh, we'll soon get over that, you know. Perhaps you are engaged, though ? Mary’s inconvenient heart gave a thump, which showed that he meant business—i. e., matrimony, ‘No, I’m not ; but l’m wanted to be.’ Not a very lucid answer, but be understood it. ‘Who to?’ he asked, coaxingly. ‘Well, perhaps I oughtu’t to say his name,’ she answered slowly; for in this the mest important moment of her life, as she felt it to be, words seemed altogether to fuil her. ‘What is he?’ ‘Ile—he’s a carpenter.’ Mary nev- er felt the truth more difficult to tell in all her life. ‘A carpenter?’ he said in a telling tone of inquiry, nut unmixed with scorn, “Well, of course, l’m no better than a carpenter’ — ‘Oh, you are, you are, sir!’ said Mary, in her excitement, putting out her hand and resting it fur a moment on his sleeve. Mary lost ber heart to the smart young man with the blue tie and the well-viled hair.

Why, every moment in the day was devoted to thinking of him; her work was neglected ; her money “pent; her place in a fair way of beivg forfeited, and poor Tom Dawlish nearly heart-broken, and yet he said she did pot love him. “Ah! you don’t care for me!’ he repeated artfully enough, fur wo avowal of his own feeling bad ever escaped his lips. ‘Oh! I de, I do,’ she sald ; and cov- cring her face with beth hands, Ict her bead dowa upon his shoulder. CHAPTER II. ‘I hate school,’ Franky Poole in- formed her one morning as he sat on the table while she sewed a button on his trousers, ‘I should like to be a sailor.’ ‘Goodness! Master Franky, what’s (put that into your head ?’ ‘Oh, nothing ; only Tom Dawlish was telling me about it; what they did in the wrecks, you know, and all that. I should like to be on a raft, I should,’ and he drew his naked toes on to the table and wriggled them about at the thought of the great things he would do. ‘Tom’s coming to-day, I heard mamma say so; and if he isn’t gone when I come back this afternoon I shall ask him wore about it.’ ‘Pd tell hiin not to be filling thechild’s head with such nonesense, only I don’t want to get in bis way,’ Mary thought. But somehow Tom got into her way in the afternoon. ‘Look here, Mary,’ he said, ‘I want to speak to you. Itisn’t that I want you to look at me if you havn’ta mind to, though goodness knows I’d do anything for you ; but I don’t want to see a nice girl like you a lowering of yourself by walking out with a chap like Alfred Hill,’ ‘What's it got to do with you?’ she said angrily. ‘Why, just this, that I found outa bit about him, aud he’s only laughing at you, and thinking you are a nice looking girl when you are dressed up, to walk about with; Lut as for mar- rying you hell no more do it than that”?—aud snapped his fingers, tho’ what that action had to do with Mr. Alfred Hill’s intention he did not ex- plain. ‘Why, he’s going to marry the daughter of Mr. Brooks, what travels for the firm, that’s what he’s going todo, Ask him, and see if he cau deny it. Why, it’s coming off directly, only she’s nothing to look at, so he isn’t fond of showing her off, but she’s got some money, she has, and plays ou the piano, aud looks like u lady.’ ‘Iluw do you kuow ?’? Mary a-ked, her very lips turning white, for her exacting heart knew that he bad fall- slowly, not daring to look her in the Face ; ‘so you may as well know it at once,’ She stood ap before him. ‘True! Do yon mean to say, Al- fred, after all that has passed bet ween us, that,you are going to be married to some one else ?’ ‘I really don’t know what you mean by ‘what has passed between us.” You don’t think I was going to marry you?’ ‘Why couldn’t I? ‘Well, I don’t wish to hurt your feelings, but consider the difference in our positions. Oue walks out with a pretly girl, but one dosent’ marry er. ‘You are not a gentleman, as you think yourself, Alfred Hill,’ she said slowly. You are dressed like one, but you are just a bit of a clerk, not bet- ter than a respectable girl like me; you are nota gentleman. A gentle- man doesn’t try to take a girl’s good name and win her heart as you have done.’ Mary often wondered how she fought her battle as she did; but she seemed to have no feeling then, only to realizethat which would come hereafter, ‘I’m sorry that you let vourself fall in love with me,’ said he tapping his boot again. ‘I thought you would have had more pride, at any rate till you were asked,’ ‘More pride! What do you take me for?’ she asked, her cheeks flush- ing, ‘Do you think I’d walk out with one, and talk to him, and let him talk to me as you’ve done if I hadu’t cared for him? I’ve too much pride for that, and I shouldn’t be fit com- pany for any honest man if I hadn’t. And you know that I’ve liked you, fur you made me say it, and you know it; but it isn’t you that I like, but the man I took for you, and he isn’t her. at all.’ ‘Well, ’m_ sorry you are disap- pointed in your hope of bettering yourself by marrying above you. | think after all yo’ve said, we'd bet- ter part.’ ‘The sooner the better;’ and she let him go, and then she sat down and almost subbed her poor foolish heart out, and spent the bitterest hour of her life beneath the trees from which the leaves were falling. Suddenly she looked up for Franky ; he was nowhere to be seen. Shie call- ed at the top of her voice; no answer came. With a fear that deadened all other feelings she ran to and fro ina wild endeavor to find him, She asked the policeman at the gate: he had not seen him; an hour passed in fruit- less search ; and then,-pale with fear and trembling in’ every limb, she went home to relate the terrible news. Just as she got to the door she saw through the gathering shadows Tom Dawlish, and in his arms a_ little fivure, which her heart tuld her was Master Franky. ‘I met this young gentleman as he en off lately, and that) he was not what he had been in the Spring (the Summer was ever).

She wrote to him asking him to meet her that night; but he replied with an excuse that made her heart sick. He would meet her to-morrow Gardens, if she liked, he said ; and to this she consented, and for the first ‘time, and fur his sake, was false to her charge of Franky. ‘You run about, Master Franky dear,’ she said >*1 want to talk to sight,’ and then in her bewilderment she forget all about him, Alfred Hill She hardly greeted him wheu he ap- peared, but she looked at him with for him intensified Ly her fear. headed cane. thing more definite than he said that first day ; but he was always ready to take her out, and about her dress; and the result was went in more or less ill-chosen finery, She had always had Franky Poole vut for a long walk on walked about with her sweetheart. of the first named, of a pleasing chocolate brown color—valne 8150.

A c&eAR and forcible writer in the Fayetteville Observer, of Sept. 26th, on the subject of the Tariff, criticises with great fairness and trath, Chas. R. Jones’ junwufacturer of Plaids, who said if the tariff op that class of goods was repealed, he and his family would lose a thousand dollars a day. “Wells,” the writer refer- red to, shows up the absurdity of the proposition by a simple statement of the fact that the Seath can manufacture the class of goods named at a lower price on a profit thay England or any other coan- try —eap even andersell Englauod io the stalls of Manchester—her own market ; how then, he asks, can this manufacturer of Plaids lose a thousand dollars a day on a tariff which affords him no more pro- tection than a tax on cettun would pro- tect the cotton planter; or a tax on corn would gfford the prodacer of that grain? Our country is already competing with Kugland iu the coarser classes of cotton geoda in many of the markets of the avorld, and the time is eomiug, says the Cineinvati VTimes-Star, when the South will apply the world with her cotton fab- rica. But supposing Jones’ man was correct fn his statement, the questiou must come up—who should lose that thousand dol- Jars a day, the Southern manufacturer of Plaids or the people who cousume the goods. Our protective tariff system and the Republican partywho are sustaining it say the people should lose. The Dem- ocrats on the other hand say no. If you gay't make these goods here at hone as cheap a8 England can do it, you may shut up your mill and we willbuy where we can buy cheapest. But there is no sort of danger of luss to cotton mannufact- prers in the South. They do not ask for a protective tariff. They do not need it, and it conld dothem po good if they had it, noless they they were all confederated for the purpose of oppressing the consumers at home, just as Northeru manufacturers have done for lo! these many years. But this able eorrespoudent Wells, pre- sents another chapter in the Fayetteville, Observer of the 27th of September, on the general subject of tariff taxes, which we commend to the readers of the Watchman as containing the true doctrine, on which the people of this country should stand, aud which they should demand of their representives in the Congress of jhe Uni- ted States. We trust all will give it their most careful attcution until they anderstand it perfectly. We cannot tell them who “Wells” is, nor does it matter.

From the Fayetteville Observer. Mr. Epitors—In the discussion of questions relating to the action of Gov- ernment, it is safest and best to inquire into the authority by which such action is warranted. In all cases where there is a written constitution—in other words, where the powews of a government are set forth, specifically in a written in- strument, the first consideration always, is, whether the preposed* or performed act is in rensonange with the authority delegated. The Uuited States has a writ- ten constitution; and in that coystitu- tion it is declared that the powers not alelegated to the United States by the constitution, ner prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respec- tively or to the. people. So, hbuwever desirable it may be in the minds of men, that certain legislation shall be had, un- less @ warrant for the same can be found in the charter of the government, nothing can be done. Article 1, sec. VIII says, ‘‘the Con- gress shall have power to lay and collect taxes, duties, imiposts and excises to pay the debt and previde for the common defence and general welfare of the United States; but all duties, imposts and ex- cises shall be uniform throughout the United States.” In the draught of the constitution sabmitted by Mr. Rutledge, of S.C., to the convention of 1787 on August the Oth, the clause read, *‘to lay and collect taxes, duties, imposts and ex- cises,” and it cvutained nothing else. | The additional words, as they are now found were adted by a committee of that body doubtless to make the meauing more explicit, aud were approved by the convention.” It will be seen that they | pluinly declare the purposes for which all taxes shall be “laid and collected,” and | prescribe that Mf system shall be ‘‘uni- forin,” that is, equal throughout the | country. This establishes a rale of justice | as to sections, and is equally mandatory as to individuals. Notwithstanding the provision which I | have quoted, there are men who claim to | be good and intelligent citizens, who are | the adyocates of what they are pleased to | calla Revenue Law which “lays” but | does not ‘collect™ “duties” and “imposts,” and cannot, therefure “pay the debts and provide for the common defence and general welfare of the United States.” A! tax which is “laid,” must be ‘collected’ by the Gorernment according to the plain re- quirements of the constitution. When- | ever, therefore, the rate of tax is so ex orbitant that po revenue can be “collec- ted” because the importation is prohibi- ted, it is too plain for argument, that there has been the exercise of a power, net warranted by’ the constitution. High taxes do not, by apy means, necessarily result in increased revenues to the Treas ury Department, but in most cases enure to the benetit ouly of those eugaged in | enterprises connected with those subjects | of taxation. Whenever this is the case, | although the money goes oat of the pock- ets of the people, it only helps toswell t!e profits of individuals, and contributes ! nothing to the support of the government, by whose authority it is exacted. How any honest man can defend such a policy, I confess myself unable to understand. The only pretense ever offered fur the system is that it makes a country splen- did by developing its resources, develop— ing its trade and producing additional cousumers for its products, It may have the effect of adding splendor to the land by augmenting the fortanes of individ- uals, and enabling them te lavish their Wealth in costly, edifees and charming grovnds. It canuet have any valae in any other vesapect. Diversity of oecupa- tion is, indeed, highly desirable; bat ; the vutaral ordey of things, whenever the *exjgency of time and occasiou” shall demand it, and ought never to be forced by artiticial means. But astothe creation of new consumers and enabling «a certain class of producers to get more for their goods, it Is Che sheerest of all nonsense. What good can that do, especially when, whilst ove wan sells fora better price, he js obliged to pay ove proportioyally high, to eay the least, for whatever he may be obliged to consume? The farmer may getten centasmore lorevery bushel of a he . may put on the marlet, but © has to pay all the excess for iis blank- ets and hats. I siated iu my former letter that every man whohas ordinary comprehension knows that the object of the advocates ot what are falsely called protective tariffs, is to enable them to sell their goods, treed from foreigu competition. Why the cousamer oced object to any sort of competion, I confess myself unable te see. The greater the competition the better it willbe forhim. Jt ¢s to his interest that the foreigu aud domestic prodacer shall both have a chance for his custom, and that he shall have a chance for theiis, as by this means he will surely get what he wauts at a jess price. But some, not all, dumestic wan- ufacturers desire that (‘ongress shall so legislate as to destroy their foreign com- petitors and give them nronepoly of the market fur the class o € goods which they produce. Whilst tley do that, iv the vatne of the laborer, they are equally sol citous that what tuey need in the }eignuer cau monopolize the market and fix | duction | Same channels of ivdustry, in the hope of wuntineture of their commodities, they a ‘shall get, in any market, and free from | 7 |all trade restrietions | They o want raw materials to come i of duty, even though some of their customers are engaged ia producing thera! Is that for “general welfare?” -Is tliat one of the purposes for which the constitation was ordained ? Does that “establish justice?” Iam no believer in the so-called doc- trine of “‘protection,” not only because it is violative of the constitation aud of the natural laws of trade, but because it does vot add te the general..wealth, and does rob one part of the commuuity for the benefit of another. If the Almighty had intended ‘all nations of men who dwell upon the face of the earth,” to be independent of euch other, and live en- tirely within themselves, He would have so ordered that wheat and corn and cotton and sugar cane and coffee and spices and apples and oranges should grow on the same soils and in immediate roximity to each other. We should een had every whereas fall exemplifi- cation of Moore’s ideal of “‘saiuted Leba- non” “Whose head in wintery grandoer towers And whitens with eternal sleet, Whilst summer in a vale of flowers Is sleeping rosy at his feet.” But such was not the order of - Provi- dence. Nations and men were intended to be mutaally dependent ; and the fewer impediments which are thrown in the way of free intercourse the more consis- tent itis with Divine Jaw. Taxation upon trade asa means of governmental support, and pot individual advancement is allowable, and does not conflict with the priuciple I have laid down. Nv‘one, excépt a mere dreamer, can ad- vucate absolute free trade. What this country beeds is a system of taxation which bears equally upon all industries, aud indaces a healthy competition be- tween all persons engaged in adding to its natural wealth. This is what our fathers mweavt, and they meant nothing else. Now, whilst I maintain that a tariff whose detuils are ajusted with a view to revenue, is the only tariff which the con- stitution authorizes, aud will give all the advantage which the domestic produéer hasa right to demand, it: is but just to say that it often happens that whena wrong policy has been inaagurated and continued for years, wisdom suggests that itbe not saddenly destroyed, but brought gradually buck to correct princi- ples. Large interests have grown up under the talse aud unjust policy of the government, and as very many of the persons possessing them are innocent parties and in no degree responsible for the wrong, it is safest to use the proving knife yeutly, 80 as not to produce too great ashock. Bat it ought to be used, aud speedily. In the course of a few years these interests to which I refer, will adapt themselves to the changed condi- tiou of things, without legitimate loss to any one, and with great benetit to the large majority of the peuple. My own view is, that wherever there is an industry in this country engaged in the production of a certain article needed by mankind, Congress should so regulate the duty imposed opon the same article nade in foreign lauds, as io enable the domestic producer to cuter into fuir com- petition. lf the duty is too low, the for- his own price upen the commodity at the expense of the consumer. If too high, it Will prevent all imports and give the American manufacturer the same undue advantage. What we waut is equaliza- tion; aud this will result in a fair and just struggle for trade supremacy, and thus succeed in advancivg the wellure of the great mass of our population. Any one who will reflect, can easily sec that the immediate effect of all taxes, which either partially or totally prohibit lnportations is net only to produce no reveuuc, but increase to the cousumer the price of the article thus legislatively treated. For a few years the persons eu- gaged in the special manufactare or pro- will net large protits. ‘This success will cause others to enter the sharing the seeming prosperity; and such | ) Will be the rush that not more than a de | cade will pass before the domestic com- | petition will overstoek the marker, re ARE COMING IN EVERY DAY, —AND—— John Bostian, Thos.

GASKILL. ed them myself before another tribunal. Both Senators and Representatives in Congress, writers on Political Economy and contributors to the public press have adopted the same line of argument to di- rect public attention to a greatly needed reform in the financial policy of the Gov- ernmeut. Hitherto, the few, by false pre- tences, by sophistieal reasoning by which the post hoc has been substituted for the propter hoc, have succeeded in blinding the eyes of the many, aud causing therm to submit to robbery, under the forms of law. ‘This evil has already been borne too long. Justice is now demanded by those who have so patieutly berne the yoke of uueqnal treatment; and it be- hooves those who claim to be “represen- tative men,” to be careful upon what priuciples they next go before the Ameri- can people. There must be a clear and explicit avowal of party doctrine upon the subject which I have but meagerly discussed, or thousands of men will lose all hope of Governmental reform, and make such combivations as shall seem most likely to accomplish their wishes. Conveutions mast express, not throttle, the sentiments of the people, ov their edicts will not only be disregarded but despised. Nine-tenths of the Democratic party favor a Tariff for Revenne, as_ its primary purpose, and their will must vot be overlooked to gratify the wishes of a tew, who desire to prosper upon the mis- fortuves of their fellow-men. WELLS. ——-_-- —-—_ Mr. Holden set the example in card- writing. Mr. Pat. Winston followed. The javenility and jocularity of the one might have bee supposed to balance the age und versatility of the other. Thus tar, the two gryat parties were left each with its equilibrium andisturbed. Bat the Democratic side of the world is now much the heavier, for Mr. H.R. Chappell, of New Light, Towuship, Wake county, has written a letter to the News and Observer in Which he says, being able “no longer to'procrastinate I adopt this method of informing my friends and the public generdly that I hereby sever my convection with both the Republican and Liberal jparties in North Carolina. God being my helper,” continues Mr. Cappell, aud we trust that He will, “I shall not cease ny labors until we ean have an hovest and cconomical administration in all branehes of public service.” Mr. Chappell has undertaken a pretty big duce prices, produce financial collapses, |Job, bat the Chronicle hopes him success, and end in the survival of those only who have made the largest accumolations. Before this time comes, howeves , the con - sumer will have contributed a large por- tion of his earnings to swell the grandeur aud the pockets of those who have rea p— et the richest harvests. These results are inevitable from a system founded in wrong; and statesmen should su admin— ister the Government, as to make them impossible from any other cause than such as are beyoud the control of the wis- est law givers. : We often hear, now-a-dnye, that itis unjust to lift the burdens of government from the laxuries which nu man is oblig- ed to use, and place them upon the uec- essaries, which euter into the consump- tien of all classes of the community. Un- donbtedly such a courso cannot be de- tended. But Congress cannot increase the taxes upon articles of necessity, beyoud the present rates, without destroying rev- enue aod forcing 4 resort to direct exac- tions from the people. There are, indeed a few articles now on the free list, which would bear heavier burdens, but the tem- per of the country would hardly allow them to be taxed at all; aud one, vow taxed for the benefit of Louisiana mainly, which could stand 3 much heavier rate of taxation. It will net do, however, to re— sort tu them for an increase of revenue, The trnth is it is entirely needless to do so. If Congress shall represent the in- terests of the body of the people and not those of persons whose ageuts fill the cor- ridors of the Capitol, advocating the “protection” of Labor,” (meauing capi- tal) it will revjse the Tariff so as to make ita means of filling the coffers of the Gevernment with the funds needed for an economical administration. It can demove the entire Internal Revenue taxes which are odious in their nature and = of- fensive in their exeeution; and. at the same time lessen the demands upon the pocket for the necessaries and conyen- iences of life. If these taxes are taken off, ie t rates cannot be enlarged with- out defeating the very objects of the re- peal. ‘To illustrate, let me take the arti- cle of blankets, which is often quoted as one of the subjects, apon which “burdens grievous fo be borne,” will be laid. Will any ove teli what heavier tax this article will stand and yield any revenue gt all ? Even with the present rate, very few are imported and the customs receipts from this item are merely vominal. The Par- iff is beyond the Revenue point now. It cannot be made higher without prodac- ing a decrease. Reduce the rate of taxa- tion and there will be an increase of ye- ceipta. When it is done, it should be gradual bat steady, and uo interest gill be hurt, but all, in the end, be great benetitted. a I do not claim to have eaid any thing uew in convection with this most impor- tant subject.

E. McComb who has a farm near Hickory on the Catawba river had five sheep killed and six others injured by dogs. On the following night Mr. Darius Echard, who lives two miles from Hicko- ry, had seven sheep killed by dogs. On the same night J. W. Mowser, Esq., of the same neighborhood had two sheep killed by dogs. On the same night there were seven sleep. killed or jnjured on Mr. W. P.

BRUNER, MANAGER. ine and Milling Company are putting up extensive machivery for milling their ores. — eee Col. Cochran, W. Fregallis and others interested in the Guild Hill mines bave been here several days. Thorough explo- rations are to be made, which, it is said, will decide the fntare of these mines. Dutcu Carex.—Work is going on at Dutch Creek mive day and night. Down about 60 feet in the copper shaft, and have started on the underlay —vein being 15° from vertical, is about 4 feet wide shows brown and red oxides, green car- bonate, yellow sulphuret and azarite cop- per ores. Koowle’s vertical shaft pump is used and keeps the water down nicely. Shipment of ores will commence seon. . Ee Mr. W. W. Miller exhibited to us Saturday, a curious conglomerate of quartz crystals in the shape of a turtle, weighing some seven or eight pounds. It had a very well formed head, body and tail, though the head and tail haye both dropped off by handling. The crystals on top seem tohave been thrown to- gether in the most accidental manner, but underneath are somewhat in layers. The Hon. B. Wilson made a flying visit to our city a few days ago. He and Col. Davidson of Pittsburg have pur- ehased afew valuable mineral proper- ties in this section and will soon begin the work of development. Among others they have purchased the Hearne and Heacock mines near Albemarle io Stanly county. The minesare known to be very rich. A large amount of gold was taken from them before the war from ouly a few shafts. The main body of the property remains untouched. The proprietors have caused thurough ex- amivations to be made by the distin- guished Chemist, Dr. W. P. Lawver, of the U.S. Mint Bureau of Washington, who reports the ore to be “free milling quartz, easy to reduce and ivexpensive to treat;” and the average yield to be over $16 per ton. This will be regarded very rich ore when it is remembered that the ‘‘Homestake” group of gold mines in Dakota, among the most valuable in the U.S., produces ore of the value of from four to siz dollars per ton only. We congratulate Messrs. Wilson and Davidsou upon this purchase. They have also purchased a large copper property that is said and supposed to be very rich. The Conrad Hill copper mine is regarded as one of the most productive and valuable in the couutry east of the Mississippi river and yet it is said that | their property is larger and their copper ore fully as rich. — _- Insitute Fair Building. Boston, Sept. 29, 1883. A few articles are coming io to fill up the nooks and corners of our exbibit, and others are expected, such as apples, grapes, maple sugar and syrups, the mar- ketable vegetables, including cabbage, beets and pumpkins. Also a lout of wool and woolen goods. The work now engaging our time is la- beling distinctly each article, and re-ar- ranging fur the better general effect. This kind of work must be kept up regularly as the occasion demands, aud when you add to this the other more tiresome work of escorting visitors through the exhibit and making the necessary explauations, and answering their questions it will be- come apparent that the whole of our time taken up. There are two new exhibits just finish- ed—the Northern Pacitic aud the Missou- ri Pacific Railways. ‘The first named has material gathered from Dakota, Minneso- ta, Washington, Montana, Oregon aud Idabo. The serials, vegetables and min- erals form the leading features of the ex- hibit. The Missouri Pagific has a display of the same geveral character as the above, though the material shown is frem Mis- souri, Arkausas and Texas and iucludes in addition to the articles meutioned, pre- served fruits, woods and some manufac- tared articles. But these exhibits cannot compare with the comprehensive display of resources made by the State of North Carolina. We have more fluor space than both of them together, and our display is classified and arranged in more complete and pertect order, For instance, on yesterday two botanists, one from New Englaud and one from St. Louis examiued critically our exhibit of woods. They found iv the whole collection only two labels whieh were inaccurate, wheu it is remembered that ne botanical expert was eugay- ed iu the collection of these woods, some idea of the accuracy und reliability of the exhibit may be formed. We are told every duy by strangers that we huve made the most wonderful show ever sceu from any State, and that our people must be very proud of it. Those of vur people who have seen it— and some two haudred North Carolinians have been here—express themselves as highly gratitied. Commendation from home is pleasant, and the writer may be parponed for inserting here a short ex- tract from a private letter received frum a gentleman iu Montgomery county. He says: “We are glad to kuow that through your efforts, after all, Montgomery coan- ty has a showing at the exposition, and is attracting attentiun as oue of the gold bearing counties of the State. We write to say again that our people, the appre- ciative portion, thivk kindly of you,” &c. Next week we are expecting the North Carolina press, en masse. Arrangemeuts are being made for their entertainment— excursieus aud receptions will be given them. They will be the guests of the city. S The editors of the Commerciql Bulletin have arranged to give the delegation a reception at the Parker House. I will not anticipate them, but leave them to tell their own story, when their sightsee- ing is vver. This reminds me that I have not spo- ken of several places of interest recently visited. Don’t feel alarmed, have not been on Bunker's Hill, bat enjoyed a pleasant ride on a narrow gaage railroad which is built along the vorth shore of the bay, running between glacial bills and occasionally crossing little inlets, af- fording magnificent views of the white beach dotted here and there with groupes of pleasure seekers. See them dodge foam- crested breakers which avon swell far out on the glittering sands. Point of Pines Hotel is the first stopping place of impertance. Passing under massive arched gateways the visitor is ushered along winding paths of white pebbles, over which are swung graceful arches of gas jets for illumination, and then the hotel. with its long piazzas filled with easy chairs and lounging people. Here they sit and gaze on the blue waves as they roll iv and lash the beach, while their ears are feasted with sweet gtrains of music mingled with the roar‘vf the waters. Bat this is getting inte the quicksand and it may serve my purpose better to get aboard one of the many beautiful steamers and continue the trip to Nan- tasket Beach. ‘The air is fresl—so is the breeze, and sailing craft of all kind give the bay the appearance of life. Large steamers making outward and coming in, add variety to the scene. On either side are island forts with only large guns and chimney tops protruding above the level of the fortifications ; clusters of attractive summer residences, the picturesque hous- es of Hull, scattered on the crest of a gent- ly sloping hill, with their steep roofs and gay painting all go to make up a scene in- teresting and novel to the visitor whe hales from a quiet southern inland town. Naptasket hasa fine stretch of smooth beach some five miles in length, anda number of magnificent hotels. These of- fer inducemeuts for internal decoration such as ‘‘Clam-bake-to-day,” ‘Fish and clam chowders,” etc. The season for these resorts are about over, and the people are flocking back to the city. Cambridge, Harvard College, Long- fellow’s home, aud the early home of Oli- ver Wendall Holmes, may be attended to in another letter. To go back to the fair for a moment, it may be of interest to our people to know that the question most frequently asked by people who contemplate moving south is “how are northern people thought of and treated by the people of the South ?” It is surprising how frequently this ques- tion comes up. Why these misgivings and doubts? Is it wholly due to the in- fluence of designing politicians, or does there lurk a faint sensibility of the injas- tice dove our part of this glorious coan- try in the days that have gone. “These, of all people, should feel it, for they set an exainple of insubordination and rebel- lion to the Union years before the South felt such a necessity. Since I have drift- ed into this subject, it may net be amiss to tell how the writer was introduced to a daughter of Stephen Foster, one of the rantankerous abolitiovists of the days when that fanatical class made excuse to heap denunciations on the tyraut masters of the South. It was at breakfast this morning, and she was speaking of the scent to the poor whites of North Carolina. I introduced as being from that State, and probably as a warning to prevent too far an expressivv on her part. Our school system was explained; when the strong minded lady (excuse the language) “thought that they should be educated to work.” She affirmed people were all right on that score, but that the poor whites were too proud to work. From this point the conversation began to warm up aud soon became live- ly, but your correspondent ate his bread in subdued silence after the declaration on her part that ‘‘she would esteem it au honor to entertain Mr. Douglass or Mr. Brace, though the latter was somewhat deficient iu moral integrity.” The dis- tunce between us was too great. That anglo-saxon blood should stoup to but pardon me, I ain here to show to the world the great resources and advantages of the best State iv the Union and not to talk politics. T.K-B. So A a TN education of teachers to be was that the colored Ben. Butler. We are pet av admirer, of Ben Butler but we don’t see why he shoald be sin- gled out from among the men on either side of the line to be made the special object of abuse. But we believe in con- sistency. ‘The fullowing from the Macon (Ga.) ‘Telegraph a paper of unquestiened Democracy, covers the case. It says: ‘The fact that the widow and daughter of Stonewall Jackson have recently been the recipients of social courtesies from Geu. Butler, vow Governor of the State of Massachusetts, has proreked public aud private commeut and discussion at the South. Sume people have been great- ly borritied. Others see in this a deeply planned scheme to nominate Gen. Butler forthe Presideney by the Democratic party. We trust that these hysterical people will possess their souls in pa:ience Mrs. Jackson aud daughter were invi- ted to the Buston exposition and were proffered courtesies by the Governor of the State and accepted them. There is bo meaning iv this beyond that Gov. But- ler knows how to dispense his hospitali- ties like a gentleman, and Mrs. Jackson and her daughter were too well bred to refuse them. No political siguificance whatever may attach to this episode. We imay not be classed among the admirers uf Geu. But- ler, and we are vot searching fur apolo- gies or excuses for anythiug he may have suid or dove, bat when the people of the Seuth propose to extend social amnesty tu their late Northeru enemies, we insist that it shall be general and without ex- ae Darrow put) ship and rank injustice which withhe litical amnesty from Jef-rsuon Davis. us not imitate these in a small way. said or done in the past, we have never seen & protest against it comiug from any member of the Republicav party. His conduct at New Orleans, includ ng ‘his celebrated order against the women, was indorsed and sustained by his .ment, his military associates and t They all became accessories after the fact, and aré equally amenable to any punishment that can be inflicted. We remember that Grant traveled through the South, drank the wine and broke the bread of Southern gentlemen and enjoyed the unstinted hospitality of Southern homes. In 1880 he eam paign- ed from one end of the State of New York to the other, heaping the vilest abuse upon his entertainers and declared they were unfit to participate in the ben- efits of the government. We recall that Sherman devastated the Soath, insulted women, despoiled chil- dren and put the torch to the cities; and then lied about it and subsequently swore to the lies. _ It may be remembered that Sheridan insulted and outraged to the uttermost extent the people of two States under bis command. No man in this country has done the South such injury, has slander- ed her people so persistently and vitu- peratively as Hevry Ward Beecher, a stoss worlding and debauchee who has attempted to overtarn all social barriers and at the same time to mock the Chris- tian religion. We have no sympathy with people who sneer at Butler and flock to hear Beecher lecture at five hundred dollars a night. When Grant and Sheri- dan are made social toasts at the South, aud Sherman is followed by toadies and bootlicks amid the ruins of vandalism, we cannot see but there should be an out- er place fer Ben Butler. Butler is a far abler man than Grant, Sherman or Sheridan, and a better one in every respect. He is a better man than Henry Ward Beecher. Simple justice demand that he be not excluded from that sociel amnesty which the people of the South are willing to extend to the people of the North. _-—__—_ BRIEFS.

The new Parisian style of dressing the hair is high in the back and on the head. The “Dejazet” coiffure is of two waved bandeaus, which are generally false. The hair istaken upinthe back in Chinese fashion aud tied rather high; it is then divided into three parts, each of whieh forma kind of bow with sowoth loops. Each of these is fas- tened through the center with a shell pio. In the “Manola” style the hair is divided horizontally into two parts. The upper part is tied high, and then divided to form puffs, which are ar- ranged iv a wreath around the head. The three upper puffs show from the front. The other part of the hair is braided and taken inthe center of the wreath. “Empire” coiffure cou- sists of false crimped baudeaus. The back forms puffs and small twists of hair, with low combs placed in the center of the head and on either side of the back. Another style forms two loops in front in butterfly shape. The back is divided into small twisted pieces, which cover the whole back part of the head. ee ai Church Manners. . BY CHAS. F. DEEMS, LL. D. It would seem an impertinence to say anything to ordinary weill-bred people in regard their manners in church. Neverthless, there are certain points of bebavior which would be modified by thoughtful people, if they see them from the poiut of view at which they are looked at by a sex- ton, or an usher, or a pastor, We propose to give our readers the benefit of our owu observations on this subject. The first important thing is to be in the pew before the minister enters the pulpit. Few hearers have con- sidered the vast importance of this direction, ‘Tardiness in reaching church has a widespread and disas- trous spiritual influence. In different churches the ritual is different. Some commence with an exhortation ; some with the reading of the Scrip- ture, and some with prayer. ‘To any one of these the ushers ought to give uninterrupted attention; but if you come in tu be shown to your seat, you lose the whole effect yourself, and you deprive other souls of the good they might obtain, You injure your- self serivusly, because you either think that you are more important than the service of God or at least appear to think so. If you have real reverence, you fail to show it. A member of the House of Com- mous in Englard would disparage hix reputation fur decency, if he came in when the queen’s address was behavior would uot be half as repre- hensible as that of a person who should enter a church and disturb the congregation while the minister was reading the Holy Scripture. You ought to know the precise time at which the service begins, and on Saturday night lay all your plans sion. But that exhortation and that confession are exceedingly solemn things, and never to be taken in the mouth witheut au intense couviction of the grandeur and goodness of God, and the wickedness and sinfulness of | panics of singers are engaged ata} concert, every man is expected to be in his place before the first note is struck, and in churches) where con- gregational singing prevails, every one is expected to assist, aud you should be in your place with compos- ed mind and heart attuned to the service; ready to perform your part vrat least, not to jostle those who are already singing. Sonetimes, asin the Presbyterian and other churches, the minister may be opening the service with prayer of invocation, Every worshiper ought to be present at this. Iu some churches the services is commenced by reading the Holy Scriptures. A minister who discharges hs duty faithfully in this department, care- fully reads over the lessons, practi- cing the proper tones of voice, to bring vut in the reading the shades of sacred meaning in the text. His whole intellect and soul ought tu be just as much in the reading of God’s Word us in the utterance of the ser- mon. How much you disturb such utterances you can never tell, but we can assure, from asad and_ bitter experience, that ministers are soime- times so much thrown off the track in the reading of the morning lesscns that they never fully recover them- selves before the close of the sermon. And one late comer may, by the distraction he cuuses, produce a serious effect upou the manner in which the truth shall Le presented to a thousand hearers. ‘i lLerefore, be early. A layman would add to the above that, on no account should a preacher be behind time in reaching the church, until the whole congregation become nervous and displeased at the delay, This feeling sowetimes becomes so oppressive that some have goue awa without hearing the sermon, and all ure anneyed by it. This happens sometines wheu the preacher dines vat, away from home, aud where he ‘itime and conduct’ ef the entertainers, hinder him from attend- jury to add on the rider of extenuat- j straw in them, the vanity or thoughitlessiess of his ing in the expected time. The Jury System in France. The jury system is very simple in France. No man can under 30 years of a inust be able to be in ical rights ; must not bea laborer, a domestic servant, an official, a school- master or aclergyman. ‘The prefect prepares every year a list of eligible citizens to serve as jurors; ten days before the opening of the assizes the chief judge selects by lot from this panel 36 jurors plus 4, to act as sab- stitutes. A policeman notifies each person selected to attend the court on a certain day and in default he will be fined from 200 to 1500 francs. Valid excuses are accepted. Ou the opening of the trial the names of the 36 jurors are dropped in- to au urn. The prisoner can set aside 12 names as they are drawn and so can the government, but when 24 names have been challenged, the re- maining 12 in the urn become the de facto jury. The judge then nominates one or two substitutes following the importance of the trial. Ordinarily the foreman is the first name drawn, but the jury when con- stituted can elect their foreman. Af- ter retiring to consider their verdict, bo juror can leave under a penalty of 500 frances. ‘Ihe verdict is taken by vote and can never descend below the division 7 to 5; the power of the and write ; must ing circumstances to their finding, greatly facilitates.a solution, A ju- ror is only called on to serve once in three years, : a ee A Pretty Aprox.—A dressy lit- tle apron for afternoon wear can be made by taking a piece of cheese cleth twenty-nine inches long by twenty- one wide, and after hemming the sides, fringing out the bottom to the depth of four inches; a couple of inches above the fringe draw the threads for two more, and run in either satin or ottoman ribbon of light weight. If the ribbon is pink, embroider in the left-hand corner above it a spray of wild roses in natural colors in outline stitch. If blue, corn flowers are pret- ty. Atthe top of the apron make two small gores so that it will fit smoothly, and ‘after binding with the cheese cloth, tack on a piece of the ribbon long enough to tie in a bow at the back. For one it requires one yard of cheese cluth and three of ribbon, two inches wide. The design for embroi- dering can be drawn or traced with a pencil from something else. These aprous are very pretty for fuirs or little presents, and are both inexpensiye and quickly made. —- —~-q>o Canning Fruit. One of the nicest fruits we have when properly canned is pears, but many speak of them as insipid. This fault is more often with the person than the fruit, many thinking it needs only a thin, wat- ery syrup, While itis just the contrary, The fruit should be pared and eut in half and laid in cold water to” preserve their color, put them on to boil in cold) water without sugar, put on, too, your syrup to boil iu a separate vessel, in proportion to three cups of sugar to one of water. When the pears are dune se you can stick a remoye; them from = the vessel with a skimmer, turu the syrup in- to the water you have cooked them in aud let it boil rapidly for twenty minutes then return the pears just long enough to heat through and then lay them care- fully tu your cans a fill up with hot syrup. These keep nicely in tin cans, though glass is far preferrable for every- thing and the most economical in the eud. There is no need of breaking them if they are rinsed out with warm water aud then set upon a dauble cloth wrang out of lot water. Peaches I have canned the following way, and they were like fresh ones when opened: Pare aud halve and lay in wa- ter till all are ready. Then put them in- tu four glass jars, without cooking, a lay- er of peaches and a thin layer of white sugar; when your jar is fall set them in warm water covering vearly to the top, let the water bojl and then fill up the jars with hot syrup, which you must have in a separate vessel on the stove, and seal jmmediately. Plums + ill always burst and lose their shape if put on in cold water and allowed to cook up; pour boiling water over them; this will toughen the skin, Wecan plams to use in winter in combination with stewed prunes. It makes a nicer sguce than either fruit alone, and deligjous pies, Grapes and elderberrieg canned together make a very nice fruit fer pies in winter. The best grape jelly is made from greep grapes taken off about the middle of August, It is light colored and js much nicer flavor than when they are ripe. In some localities the wild erab apple is very plentiful, These make one of the very nicest jellies, and for sweet pickles are better than the other kinds. Wash them and put them oy to boil in cold water. When you cap stick a fork into them easily, remove them from the fire. The skin will be curled up all oyer them, this can easily be removed with a pen-knife ; place them jo a stone jar and pour over them a hot spiced vinegar, pretty well sweetened, This should be heated every morning for a week and Pastor M.

Alas! the weary hours slow, The night is very dark and still, Aud in the marshes far below I hear the bearded whip-poor-will ; I searce can see a yard My ears are strained tu catch each sound ; I hear the leaves about mo shed, And the springs bubbliug throagh the ground. Along the beaten path I pace, Where white rays mark my sentry's track ; In formless shrubs I seem to trace The foeman form with bending back. I think I saw him crouching low ; .

Ralph Carbit, an ingenious 12-year old hoy of Honey brook, Chester county, Pa., has devised a novel plan of getting rid of the rats which infest his father’s cellar. He has constructed owt of old fruit jars a battery of Leyden jars, which he connects and places upon a large iron plate which touches the tinfoil on the outside. The bait is so. arranged that when the rat steps upon the plate and seizes the bait he at ence makes the connection between the outside and inside of the jars, aud they are discharged through his body, killing him literally as quick as lightning. He charges the jars by means of an elec- trical machine, also censtracted by him- self. He ranacouple of wires through the floor to the cellar from the room above, and as avon as he would hear a rat squeak he would immediately recharge the bat- tery.

He was just a little colored bey, but the announcement of his death will make many hearts sad. For six years his bright black face had been familiar to all callers at Trinity Rectory, and te all friends of the family. He was a courteous, geutlemanlike little fellow, and looked on himself, as indeed everybody did, as one of the family. He believed his great mission in life was to “take care of the Vector.” 4 . A short, sharp attack of tetanus, fol- lowing the most trifling hurt from one of those murderous toy pistols, carried him off in three days, votwithstanding the ut- most of power of science and akill. We Know here, as none can know bat those who live with them, how closé those dark faced servants weave themselves in- to our lives. And when, one is so bright and truthful, so honest and faithful and trusty as this poor boy was, the family attachment is very strong. There is great grief at the Rectory and among the large circle who have knewn “Tomay” for so long.

In the rush of modern life the old elab- orate forms of social etiqnete are rapidly dyiug out says an English writer. Visit- correspondence by telegraph, and con ver- sation by the telephone. Science is kill- ing all the stately grace of life, and flings so many treusures. to society that the beautiful, like Tarpeia, is crushed te death under the weight of the offerings. Machiuery, railroads, telegraphs and cheap literature have destroyed beauty, grace, style, dignity and the art of con- versation. Aristetles high-bred gentle- man, with his stately manners, slow movements and measured speech would soon be hastled aside at a railway sta- tion, aud probably lose his place and his ticket. Neither has society any Jonget the time to listen, as it did half a centu- ry ago, to the learned disquisition of Macaulay, the inspired monolegues of Coleridge, or the fierce-rolling icouoclas~ tic thunders of Carlyle. The art of con- versation has been gradnally falling into decadence, and now barely exists; tho’ manner, or the mode of saying things well, still helps to keep it alive and even to give te commonplaces the semblance of gold. In Shakespeare's time conver- sation was perbaps at its best fv England. The court set the example; Queen Eliza- beth had wit and learning, and roand her circled some of the most remarkable men that Englaud ever produced. Cul- ture had reached a high level and every one aimed at being clever and brilliant, aud, above all, learned. It was the gol- den age of England when the national in- tellect reached the supeme height in phil- osophy, pectry, the drama and the spien- dor and depth of thought in social life. Queen Auno, though the dullest of goed women herself, was fortanate also in hav- ing her reign illustrated by a great race of intellectual] celebrities, all of them em- inently distinguished for couversational power, as Swift, Pope, Bolingbroke, Lady Mary Wortley Montague avd others. Aad there were great and brilliant talk- ers even iu the heavy Georgian era, whose wit and wisdom are peserved to ua in the bright pages of Horace, Wal- pole, like dried rose leaves with the per- fume still fragrant asin We, Dr. debo- son is the high priest of the last ceutury and we fliug a wreath to the memory of the fascinating Thrale and “little Bur- ney” and the wonderful Delaney avd the stately Hannah More, and others who "a ing is tarned into made to seem but one immense burlesque. But, ae conversation dies out, the si- leut plemsurte of society are gaining strength aod importanee. Brilliant pro- fessional genins is summoned to do alt the singing, playing, talking, reciting, while society merely sits still and listens. There is music, when nove dare even’ whisper to his neighbor a casaal remark ; recitations, when the reom must be hash- ed te perfect silence ; while at the thea- ters, society sits patiently, cramped and silent, for four hours or so, and ia happy that no demands is made on it fur talk. The whole mental activity of life has become vicarious. We lay our weariness on the head of some substitute, and soall personal responsibility ends for the exer- cise of intellect. We leave all that to professional talent, and, except that we eat and drivk, we might as well be gods of stone, ranged, with rigid featares round the walls of a drawing room or massed in the center like pins in a pincashion. There is no place anymore for brilliaut individuality or the small ameteur ace complishments. Trained talent has seiz- ed the commerce and transmuted all they touch to gold. Society is frozen iuto a mere aggregate of passive recipients and listeners, mach depressed by the consciousness of their own insignificance and inferiority ; while the professionals receive the plaudits and pay and exalt with justifiablé pride, in triamphs fairly wou by genius, talent and earnest study. — A Wonderful Inveution. — The Patent Owned by the New Postal Tete- graph Company. r The Legge patent sends as many words over asiugle wire in a minute as the most akillful Morse operator can send in an honr, delivers at the receiving station a fac simile of the copy furnished, and does it all withoat the help of a skillful operator. Anybody who can ture,a crank can send a message, in tits own hand: writing with any private marke or other devices he pleases, simply by firet'writ- ing his message on a chemically prepared piece of paper furnished by the company.

After them comes a whirlwind of intellect, male and ale, rashing down the dark noknown of the opesing | vineteenth century. Immortal names of | immortal men illustrate this great cra, and a whole host of brilliant women | light it with the radiance of their intel- lect, their wit, their beauty and the, sparkling splendor of their conversational | gifts. Maria Edgeworth held the sceptre | of intellect, Lady Morgaa ruled Londoo | by her wit, and Lady Blessingtou reign- ed at the Gore House by her grace and brillianey, while Lady Dafferiu and Mrs. | Norton (of that wondrous Sheridan race) claimed and guived the world’s homage by the right of wit, beauty and genius all combined. Mrs. Jameson, also, and the Brontes held their place right sover- | eignly, and Mrs. 8. C. Hall was a social power both in Ireland aud Eugland. Here was a splendid band of gifted wo- men (all Irish, by the way) who were a3 brilliant and interesting iu conversation | as they were powerful with the pen. La- ter on we find the female intellect su--; premely illustrated only by the uame of | one woman, Elizabeth Barrett Browning. She stands alove without a rival in the! century, bat then she stands alone amid the women of all centuries. After the death of, the great poetess of England, the reyal race ef women who reign by the right divine of intellect dis- | appears and the professional beauty seized the vacated throne as a kocial pow- er. The women of genius retreated into sulitude, and are now never heard of bat ov a title page. They no longer cast their influence on society as brilliant thinkers and talkers; and a literary sa'o ruled over by some dazzling queen of in- tellect, some splendid womey of wit and learning, exists iv Loudeu no more; for, while the rush of life is tending to de- atroy all the forms of social etiquette, the diffusion of knowledge is sapping the foundations of the conversational art, which former generations almost raised | to the perfection of a scicuce. There is nothing now left in the onter world to talk about.

When the latter came alongside, the crew of the pri- vateer mounted the rigging with their hives, and threw them upon their foes, who, astonished at this novel mode of warfare, hastened to escape from the fury of the enraged bees. Anvther instance occurred, when a rabble in Hohnstein, in Thungaria, attempted to pillage the house of the parish min- ister. He caused some bee- hives to be thrown among the mob, who in con- sequence son dispersed. Vauban re- lates how bees played an important part at the seige of Chatre, in Lor- raine. After a siege the town was being stormed, and during the assanlt the besieged threw a few hives of bees upon the heads of the storming party.

The fives and tens of 1860 were pretty and con- venient, until the three cent piece came in to raise a doubt between itself and the ten. Confusion is the rule, and common sense seems to have taken wing from thi¥ branch of public ‘affairs, ee THE CIVIL SERVICE REFORM BILL, as it passed both Houses of Congress, provides for the appointment by the Presideut, by and with the consent of the Senate, of three persens, not more than two of whom shall be adherents of the same party, who sball constitute the Uni- ted States Civil Service Commission. These Commissioners are to hold no oth- ef official positions under the United States ; are to receive a salary of $3,000 a year, with traveling expenses, aud are to aid the President in preparing rules for carrying the act into effect, and when the rules are promalgated it becomes the daty ef ali heads of departments and offi- cers in the Governmeut employ to which they may relate to see that they are car- ried ouf. These rules are to provide for open competitive examinations for testing the fituess of applicants for the public service, and all offices, places, and ap- pointments are to’ be filled by scleetions from among the bighest grades. Appoint- ments are to be apportioned ameng the several States aud Territories and the District of Columbia upon the basis of popalation, and those applicants selected will bave to pass through a period of pro- bation before any absolute appointment is wade. Provision is also made formotions from the lower grades to the highest, on the basis of merit and ,com petition ; that po person in the pablic servies is undet any oblication to contribute te auy political ‘fund or. render any politica) service, aud will got be rewoved or prejudiced for re- fusing to do se; nor has any official the right to use his official authority or in- fluevce to coerce the Political action of any person or body, It is madea nfisde- meanor punishable by a fine of not jees than $100 ner more than $1,000, pr by imprisoument for not less than ten days nor morethun’a year, or by both fine aud imprisonment, fer wny person jw the pub- lie service to furnish information te ap- plicanta calculated either to improve or injure their prospects, er in any way to obstruct or deceive them as to their rights under the rules, or make avy false repre- septations concerning the grade of such applicants. Within sixty days after the passage of the act the head of depart- ments are required to classify their clerks and employes in their respective depart- ments for the purposes of examination, and from ‘time to time revise the classifi— cation as occasion may require, und no officer or clerk shall be appoiuted, aud no person shall be employed to enter or be promoted in either of the classes until he has passed au examination ; batit isex- presaly provided in the bill that any prefer. euce conferred upon veterans shall pot be taken from them, ner. shall any aa- thority not inconsistent with the Lill be taken from the President. Officers not in the executive branch of the Goverument, laborers and workmen, aud persous nowi- nated for confirmation by the Senate, are exempted from classification avd exami- vation. Net more than two members of any family are eligible for appointment in same grade ; recommendations fer ap- pointment by aby Senator or Member of the House are vot to be received, and no pephon is to be appointed or retained in thé service who uses intoxicating bever- ages te excess, The svliciting, receiving or giving gay goutributions or assegsuient for political pyrposes by any officer or employee is prohibited poder & penalty of puvishment bya fine uf pot exceeding $5,000 er imprisonment pot exceeding three years, or by both in the discretion of the Court.

Davidson Diapatch. The Conrad Hill Mine produced for the first day’s run of the New Year, from their twenty stamp battery, over $480 in gold and concentrates and 6,500 pounds of copper from their furnaces, making the total value of the day’s psoduet, over $1,500. This equals the product of the most famous mines of the Weat. This company are now preparing “to erect an additional forty stamp mill with all ap pliances at once, The mine is so opened as to be able to prodace two hundred tons of ere per day. This mine is under the same management as the Ore Knob mine which has paid more largely than any other mine in the South. Owing to a suit in the Supreme Court of the State involv- ing the title to the mine, and which has recently been decided iu favor of the com- pany, the operotions at Courad Hill du- ring the past six months, have been de- voted more to underground exploration than to prodation ; bat bow we may ex- pect to see the mine become a large divi- dend payer at once. This proves the valae of southern mines when operated with capital and good management. Ni Fallor’s Reply to “Old Folks.” Editor Carolina Watchman ; I respectfully ask space for a brief dis- claimer of even a shadow of the evil in- tentions attributed to me by “Old Folks” in your last fssue. Unlike the criminal, who was astonish- ed to learn from bis counsel’s address to the jury, what a traly good man he was, Lam astonished to find that,—without any intent or thought of evil, in the ball- travesty matter—l have “a foul coucep- tion and heart” imputed to me! But few know the good and bad in hawan nature, the terrible penalties of sin and the hap- piness of virtue—in this life—better than [ do; aud no ove can more thoroughly detest meanness, or be more anxious to direct the young aright, in temporal mat- ters, and shield them frow vitiating in- fluences. The.whole parody of the ball was aug- gested to my mind by a sudden, cdinci- devtal recollection of Mrs. Howlet’s illus- tration of the irrepressible propensity of Euglish women to speak nonsense to their childven, by this aueedote: ‘‘ Long before the era of railways in Evgland, a pvor woman was walking on the highway, ear- rying her child, when a passenger van—a cross between a carriers wagon anda stage coach —eame along, and the waggish driver offered her a free ride as long as she spoke no “baby-talk” to her child. She sven forgot these conditions, and ina paroxism of materual effusion, exclaimed, “Eh, Georgic-peorgie, dearie—pearie, thee's gettin’ a ridey-pidey iu the wag- oney-pagoney, coachey-poachey ;” and so forfeited her ride. The punctuations of round dauces are the frequent “bamps,” &e., uf one couple colliding with another as they rotate, independently around the ball roem. I wrote in jest, to be sure, bat, “a jest’s prosperity lies in the ear of bim who hears it.’ I may have been iudisercet, bat ‘“‘indiseretion is no foundation for malice to build distortions on; and for it to do so, is the worst of frauds.” I wrote the travesty—silly as it may be—with no more thought of evil than an infant child could have, and in the best of humor, ua- der the foud delusion that it would prove a pleasant descriptive divertisement to the dancers themselves, several of whom kuew my identity. Moreover, before mailing, | submitted this—as I do all my letters—to the scrutiny of a lady of keen penctration, scrupulous fastidiousness and of unfeigned devotion to the amevi- ties, who saw nothing iu it to coudemn except its frivolity. It seems incoueeiv- able, that any man, of fair sense, could think and believe—for a moment—that even the most “foul couception aud heart,” could deliberately—with malice prepense—iusult a large pvunber of the elite of both sexes, iv his own community, -for the mere purpose of losing friends and waking enewies ! “Go to your own bosom ; (Old F.) knock there; And ask your own heart what it doth know.” Respectfully, Ni FaLvon. ee eae Arabi ILLEGALLY ImprisoneD.—Mr. Labouchere, editor of the London Truth, has had a correspondence with Arabi, iv which he calls attention to the fact that Arabi’s imprisonment in Ceylon is eutire- ly illegal. “I presume,” he writes to Arabi, “that you are aware that neither the Executive of this country, or that of India has any right to ‘detain you iv Ceylon, for no part of the dominions of the Queen of Evgland or the Empress of lodia ean be converted iuto a priseu house in which thoee condemned by a foreign tribunal cau be inearcerated.” Arabi’s imprisonment on Engtish soil is, indeed, says the New York Herald, as gross an outrage as the surrender of the Cabans at Gibraltar.

A Beavtirct Custom.—There is a charming little custom, which obtains elsewhere, to which the young mew of Statseville, some how or other, de not seom to catch op. That is the custom of making new years calls. ‘The idea is for the young men of a place to serve notice on the ladies that they will call, new (@’s day, and the ladies are expected to ready for them with a whole lot of cake, whiskey, wine aud things. Accer- dingly, the young mewstart around in droves, dressed up, dry and bhangry, They go from house to house, eat up the freeianch and drink up fire water and leave when they have cleaned everything up. The time to stop calling is when the eallers are unable to distinguish avy long- er between the gatepost aud the door- bell, and the time for a lady to stop “re- ceiving” is when there isn’t a bite to eat or a drop to driuvk Jeft iu the house. ‘The fuilare of this delightfal social custom to get any foothold in this town, proves that Statesville, with all its boasts of iutelli- gence, is still in a state of barbarism ; and there is little hope of a set of young men who hare no ee of the glories of a fashionable debauch, warranted by custom and unattended by expense.— Landmark. This aspect of new year ealling throws a shade on the custom, so dark that gen- tlemen cau hardly afford to continue it. While the Landmark upbraids the young mev of his home for the non-obserance, he smooths down the backs of his neigh- bors by the consoling language iv the last twoor three lines of his article. From his standpoint, the custom is ‘wore hon- ored iu the breach than in the vbser- vance.” a ae ee The Effcct of Gambetta‘’s Death in France. Wilmington Star. Some of the leading Lovdou papers iu their speculatiens upon ths untimely death of Gambetta, give expression to the opinion that in any eveut the Repub- lic of France is safe, althoagh its author, vest frieud, and supporter is goue. It was Gambetta who guve Frauce a Re- public worth supporting. It was Gam- betta who shaped the course of events though the last twelve years. Jt was Gambetta who organized the armies of France after Sedan. It was Gambetta in whom was centred the hopes of all Frenchmen who really preferred true Re- publicavism to any system of Mopurchy, He was France’s greatest man among the wen of the last quarter of a century. Says the New. York Times: “What greater tribate could be paid to M. Gambetta thau to say that contidence in the stability of the French Republic is visibly lessened by his denth? All the world feels this to be true. In England and America, in every couutry where the republic had friends, there is anxiety on ite bebalf ‘to-day, if not actual appreheu- siou. More than any other statesinan in any country Gambetta had made biwself aw becesary mau.” —- ——— Report of Treasurer \Vorth. Dr. Worth’s report of the operations of the treasury department of the past two years contains much that is of interest. The authority to compromise the State debt under the action of 1879, expired the January 1, 1332, aud since then noth- ing has Ween done in that matter. The amount of old ueht recognized by the leg- islature was $12,627,045. There have been compromised of this $€ 20,745, leav- ing $3,806,300 of the old debt outstanding, which if compromised would amount to $988,870. The debt already compromised amounts in new 4 per cent. bonds to $2,600,641.25. Should the balance of this old debt be compremised the 4 per ct. bon- ded debt would be increased to $3,5989,- 581.582 ; at present the interest charged for this debt is $104,025. There is another class of bonds known as the North Caro- lina railroad constraction bonds, of which 2,795,000 were outstanding. These bonds were funded iuto new six per cent. bonds, the creditors throwing off $240 interest on each bund. Of these $1,720,000 have been refunded, the annual interest on which is $103,200. To pay a part of this interest, the treasurer has received from dividends of the North Carolina railroad $29,460. Provision was made fur the payment of all the intercst on the bonds and there is now aconsiderable fund in hand credited to the interest account, because some of the bondholders have not accepted the com promise, thus leaving the interest mon- ey applicable to those bonds in the treas- ury. The ordinary expenses of the government for 1883 and 1885, being legislative-years, are estimated at $544,000-—-for 1884 $489,000, The taxation required to meet this, as we understand it, need not be greater than 28 cents on the $100 worth of property, togeth- er with the other present sources of income. The treasurer says; “I have received Fayettville Exeminer. vs ae Why should not dogs be subjected taxation? Is a dog a sacred animal, that he should be exempt the same bur. deu placed of other als? E hogs, eatfle and sheep are - taxed. Why then should not dogs be taxed? We are te auswered that degs are not property. If} they are uot property, then they belong to no man und it is not unlawfal to kill every dog, Tiiis is a consequence from which dog owners will recoil. We say then let the whole race of dogs be treat- ed as property, and ifthe law docs net hold then to be property in the fall sense of the word, let the law be changed. The legislatare of North Carolivua is.compe- teut to make the change. The conse- quence of that change weald be that all dogs would have to be listed for taxation and the county commissioners of each county would fix a schedale of-valuations for the whole tribe. But that is not all. Not only ought the dog to be treated as property, bat every dog not kept confined strictly on the premises of his owner, shoyld be tueated as @ nuisance and taxed as such. Is a dog at large not a nuisavce? Common sense replies in the affirmative. ‘These loose dogs go aboat the Country, worrying cattle, killing sheep, biting peo- ple, and playing havee geuerally. Occa- sionally ove gets killed, but ‘that is ao upusaa! oecarrence. There are in this State abeut 300,000 families, and two-thirds of them own one or more dogs. It would be a moderate calculation to say that there are in the State two hundred thousand dogs. Sup- pose they were taxed one dollar a bead, and the money put into the school fund. Two hundred thousand dollars would pay the tuition of 40,000 children at five dol- lars per head for foar months. But sup- pose only ove hundred thousand dollars were raised in this mode, aud euly 20,000 children were educated out of the fand, it would still be a splendid result. But the legislators are afraid of the people on this question. If the legisla- ture waits for the unlettered people of the State to dictate to the legislature, we shall drep further behind than we are now iv the race of improvement. It isa sad fact that the white pepulation of North Carolina are the most illiterate of all the States of the Union. Our State legislature ought to seek to relieve as of this opprobriam, and should neglect uo available source of obtainiag means to educate the people. The bill might be carefully guarded, and made so light in ite operation as te be easily borne. For inatance, let every family have one dog exempt from taxas tion, provided he is confined to the prem- ises of his owner. Let the tax ow hunt- ing dogs aud others going at large be very small, say ove dollar perhead. We see bu reason why a bill in this form or something like it would not be readily borne by the people. If the operation of it was found beneficient, it might be con- tinued with sach improvements as expe- rience might suggest. If it did vot op- erute satisfactorily, it could be repealed, oe The Late E. J. Hale. FAYETTEVILLE, Jan. 5, 1883. At 10 o'clock on Friday the citizens of Fayetteville met in tewn hall to do hom- age to the memory of Mr. E. J. Hale. On motion, Dr. W. C. McDuffie was called to the chair, and W. N. Tillinghast appointed secretary. The chair appointed Jadge Ralph P. Buxton, R. K. Bryan and Rev. J. C. Hask on resolatious. Mr. Haigh and Jadge Buxton speke feelingly of their absent frieud who had labored so hard during life, both at home and avroad, for the interest and prosper- ity of Fayetteville and North Caroliua. The committee, through Judge Buxton, chairman, reported the following pream— ble and resolutions which were unabd. monsly apopted ¢ Whereas, the citizens of this communi- ty have learned with deep sorrow of the death of Edward J. Hale, Sr., in New York, on the 2d instant, and apprecia- ting the excellent qualities which made him a wan of mark and jufiuence, desire to testify publicly their sense of his mer- it. Resolved, Tit in the death of Mr. Hale the town of Fayetteville bas lost a de- voted frieud and North Carolina a sou, ever ready with tovgue and peu to de- fend her repatation aud advocate her iu- terest. Resolved, That during the forty years that he was identified with our commea- nity his course was characterized by un- flagging energy iu business, by an iuteg- rity that was above suspicion; by enter- prise that sought by every available meaps to build ap and develop our lecal aud State interest, and by a devotion to public and private daties that made him an example to the young and won for him the admiration of every one. Resolved, That we deeply sympathize with his bereaved family in the loss of our venerable frieud, aud that we will ever cherish his wemory with love aud respect. Resolved, That a copy of these resolu- | pe 5 om . looms; C. 8. & J. P. Jones, 400 hai James Smythe & Co., 900 hands. One of the features of Euglish rule in Ireland is thus described by the Pilot: “There are thirty-two counties in Ireland | and there is an average of fifty barracks in every county, and in each, barrack there isan average of between | i six and seven armed constables. ile immeuse force is entirely under the #u- thority of English paid magistrates who! can order them, as they have of late, even to commit murder without fear of the law. The orders printed for certain policemen a few mouths ago were that. they should fire even before violence was | offérred, they being the judges of the in- tentions of the people,” Governor Stephens of Georgia, one day last week sent for the editor of the Atlanta Constitution and explafbed to him his action in pardoning a number of criminals. He said: “I have pardoned since I have been Governor about forty-two cases. Over half of this number were recommended te me as suitable persous to be pardoned by the Penitentiary committee of the Legis-" lature, backed by the strongest kind of recommendation. “Many of the remaining cases are small eases, remitting a part of a fine, when I had evidence that it was impossible to pay the whole fine. Your reporter had it that I have ordered fines refunded-that is ridiculous. I can not order a fine refunded, and never did. IfI give the facts in each case, as I propose to do to the Legislature, it would be more than any newspaper would be willing te publ-’ lish, and when I make my report I want the record made up, and then I am ready for the condemnation of any honest man, if I deserve it.” OnLy about forty-seven working days remain for the Republican Congress to do its work. Ifthe House shall stand on its dignity and deny the right of the Senate to originate bills touching revenue and there- fore iguere the tariff bill tacked by the Seaate finance committee to the bill relating to internal taxation, the tariff measure may occupy a very considerable part of the bal ance of the session. The larger apprepria- tion bills have to paassed and these measures may prevent the consideration of others which the Repubjicans have at heart. Two bills that have been regarded as of special importance will hardly be passed, the bankrupt bill and ene reforming the Federal judicary,providing for the,appoiat- ment of a lot ef Republican judges.

SPRINGFIFLD, Mass., September 26.— Ata quarter past 12 Jouas H. Freoeh, Chairman of the State Committee, called the Democratic Convention to order, and Colonel Coveny, Secretary, read the call, While the call was being read J. W. Chandler rose and addressed the presi- ding officer, but not being recognized, remained standing until Colonel Cov evy | tinished. As Colonel Coveny ceased reading, N. A. Plympton, of Worchester, rose and | addressed the chair, Chandler insisted on | his right to be heard, but Freuch decided | Plympton bad the floor, This was greet- ed with hisses in several parts of the hall and for a second there was quite a com- motion. Plympton then moved that Officers of the State Committee be the temporary organization of the Cenven- tion, This motion was deelared carried, buat was doubted, and an nproar ensued, which was promptly checked by French, who called upon Rey. Mr. Simms te offer | prayer, At the couclusiou of the prayer, French addressed the Convention. He spoke at some length on National affairs, reviewed the recent address of | the Républican State Convention, refer- red tothe administration of Governor Butler inthe highest terms, detailing important events that havo occurred the past year, and predicted a great victory for the Democratic party throughout the country. After a great amount of wrangling the Hon. P. Collins, M. C., elect, here arose and moved that the Hon. Ben. F. Butler be placed in vomination for re-election by acclimation, and it was seconded | amid thundering cheers by President | Grant’s old Collector of Boston, Mr. Wm. A. Simmons. The motion was earried Without an opposing voice. ‘The platform as reported by the Com- miltee on Resolatious and which was adopted by the Convention at the conclusion General Butlers remarks, who was @&corted into the Hall to the tune of “See the Conquering Hero Comes,” is substantially as follows: It declares that the outlook in Nation- al polities is encouraging, and it reaftirms the platform adopted at Cincinnati in 1880, and that adopted in Boston last year. The Democratic party of Massa- chusetts believes in the supremacy of the Nation and the integrity of the State, in equal rights as regards the eexes, ina thorongh reform of the Civil Service, in a tariff limited in amount toasum neces- sary and for revenue, in the abolition of excessive war taxes, and in a till further | reduction of extravagant State expenidi- tures. It opposes all sumptuary laws Which infringe the personal liberty, aud favore the introduction of boards of arbi- tration forthe purpose of reconciling difficulties between employers aud the employed, in order that a better uader- staning may exist between capital and labor. It declares that the investigation of affairs at ‘T'weksbury disclosed a want of proper system in accounting for pub- lic movey and an indifference to human feelings aud soffering by subordinates which strie the reels of Massachusetts with gricfand indignativy. ‘Mae generous heurts off the men aud | wouren of ‘this.

WHO Ta the jéga} and constitutional Gov- ernér.of North Carolina? This question may appenr as silly to some, and to oth- ers May afford an inteyesting subject for conatitutional discassion, We had not thought that there was any doubt gbout the question until in a recent conversa- tion with the most learned of our ex- Judges, he cxpreased the decided opinion that Governor Jarvis had permanently vacated the office and could not resume it, and therefore that Hon. J. L. Rebin- son was the legal Governor of the State. Thig position, if tenable, is startling and will excite mnch criticism. Did the vol- antes abandonment of hia office by Jarvis disqualify him from resuming it wh he Teturned to the State? In order to fully-consider this question let us an- slerstand the facts and then apply te those *faeta the constitutiion. About a ynonth ' v. Jarvis wrote to Lieuten- ant or Robinson iuforming him to ¢ome to Raleigh and exercise the slutiés aining to the office of Goy- ernor. In aecordanee with this request Robinson came to Raleigh and was duly gual as Governor by taking the oath of ¢ and immediately entered apou the dim of hia duties. After an abs of fone weeks Jarvis petapned to \Stute and. resamed the duties ot the Gubernatorial offer. Could he con- Atitutionally doe this?

Bat learned lawyers argue to the contrary. It is argued that the absence contemplated is an enforced, and not a voluntary ove: that avolantary abandonment of the office is not one of the “disabilities” provided for: and that a Governor cannot resign and resume his office as suits bis pleasure. . We, therefore, repeat the question, “Who is the legal and constitutional Governor of North Carolida 1— Chatham Record. We go forthe common sense theory if it is against the law. Gov.

The prespects for a grand success were pever more promising fora State fair than for the exhibition to be held at Raleigh from the 15th to the 20th of the present month. The display of machinery of all kinds will be Jarge and full, com- prising many new articles of practical utility. The display of five bred live stuck promises to be the largest ever witnessed in the State, if not in the South. Hogs worth $200 a head are not often seen and yet that is the valne fixed upon hogs now being prepared for ship- ment to our State fair. Fine sheep, in the raising of which our people have great need of becoming more interested, will be present in all the best breeds. The trials of speed will be very attrae- tive for atleast four days of the fuir. Then come next fine breeds of cattle, in- cluding Jerseys, Devons, shori horns and other fine bloods, in all of which our people are becoming more interested each year. Those fine butter makers will ere long take the place of our scrubs to a large extent, and the sooner the better. Ove man has engaged coops for 120 fowls. The prospects are very flattering for an unusually large exhibition of farm pro- ducts of all kinds. Our farmers are showing more of the present day pro- gressive spirit, and we trust at their State convention they will infuse the intensive spirit into each other, and spread the same throughout our grand old State, The side shows, frequently a source of entertainment anda protit to visitors, when they have become jaded from walk- ing around, promise to be better than usaal. Qne party with educated canary birds has applied for space; another with a pair of sea leopards and eight alligators; aud still avother with a mammoth museum, then another with a three leg- ged calf; and still another with an ox weighing 3,700 poands. Then last, but not least, there seems to be a general determiuvation on the part of the people of all sections to come to the State fair. The railroads will run excursion trains each day and will bring the people at two centsa mile cach way and bring their exhibits to the fair and earry them back home, all free. So, with the pros- pects of a grand exhibition, the liberal rates furnished by the railroads and the people all anxious to come, the State fair this year must be a grand success. —— a _ There is to be a hotel erected on Black Mountain.

Gold by the Ton. The Freie Coa From the Amador Dispatch. One of the richest strikes known in the mining history of California was made three miles south of this place last Satar- day. A ket of quartz of almost un- paralleled richness was. found.less than- one handred feet from the sa ,in which was contained from $75,000 to $100,000, and about two tons in paptite.- Much of this might be rbot chunks of gold instead of gold bearing quartz. Some of these pieces of svlid gold were about as heavy as a man could lift from the ground. The largest piece was an oval, sixteen by twenty-two inches and six or seven inches thick. This gold is almost black and of the same character as’ the former rich strikes found in the same mine. We have no doubt that this is the richest find of gold ever kuown in the Uni- ted States at one time. Daring Friday a ton of this gold freigh- ted ore was taken out. It is not so rich as the gold streak taken out some time ago, but there is vastly more of it. The value of this bonanza is estimated at from $50,000 to $100,000. The ledge is five feet wide and the whole face of it was held ther, as it were, by spikes of solid gold. Altogether, three thou- sand pounds have been taken from this bunch of ore and the end is not yet. The very rich streak from which this mass of free gold has been taken ranges from an inch or so upto twenty inches io width. The previous seam varied from the thickvess of a kuifeblade to three inches. —_——-2a-_____ Commenting upon some observations made by the Scientific American upon the use of copper fur roofing par- poses, the American Architect says: There are in Boston many copper roofs, pat ov about forty years ago, which show no signs of deterioration and the metal is still much employed in that city for cornices, gutters and raiv-water pipes, as well as for covering bay windows, and in many other ways iv place of galvanized iron, Which is much inferior in beauty and darability, and nut very much cheap- er. The copper has the additional ad- vantage of needing no paint, so that the delicate lines of artistic work are in no danger of being filled ap, and the metal increases rather than diminishes in beau- ty, by the slow formation of a bluish pa- tiva over it. For flashings, as well as other portious of rouf-work, copper is much superior to ziuc or tin, and with the aid of a certain amount of lead the most difficult problems iu roofing can be successfully and permanently solved. — oi A Cotton Picker.—The Tarboro Southerner saya: Dr. W.

The leaves cover up the bolls so that the bristles do not reach them. When the leaves are off, the cot- ton is picked out cleanly. Asa pea pick- er it is a complete success, doing its work rapidly and well. It can pick at least five acres of cotton or peas in aaday.

New York, October 3.—From the fact that over 500 lettera were deposited in the postoffice on Tuesday for dispatch to foreign countries, each prepaid by a two cent stamp, it would appear that a con- siderable portion of the public are under the erroneons impression that the foreigu as well as the domestic rate of letter pos- tage has been reduced. Thisis not the case, the rate on letters to foreign coun- tries of the Universal Post Union (of which nearly all civilized nations and their colonies are members) remaining as heretofore, at five gegts per half ounce. — Industrial democracies aie never given to war, althou they are sometimes dragged into one by the reckless action of their leaders,.

At last when disgusted, and ready to give up the colt as ruined, | happened to see your ad- vertiseme nt of ‘‘Kendall’s Blister and Spavin Cure,” and thought I would give ita trial, I first applied the “Blister” to the hock which*by this time had calloused, and to my surprise found It worked like a charm. In twenty-four hours the part that was hard became soft and the lameness began to ledve. I then got some of “Kendall's Spavin Cure” and ap- plied it according to directions, which has made a rect cure, and the coitis now as sound as any crse alive.

KENDALL’S SPAVIN CURE. Modesto, Cal, Aug. 9th, 1882. B. J. Kendall & Co., Gents :—Before coming to this coast, and while at home, in Longmeadow, Mass., I had occasion to observe the benefits resulting from the use of your Kendall’s Spavin Cure. My brother had a young horse whicb developed a bone spavin which he cured and at the same time removed the enlargement. A Mr. A. K. Mathews also cured a valuable stallion of a spavin, as well as another ac- quaintance by the name of B. Combs, both of which came under my personal observation, being in my own town, and a gentleman wiih whom I was well acquainted, and in the interest of the horsemen in this vicinity I offer this my experience.

Hastings, the well known horseman, of San Fran- cisco, in the year ending 1880, we had a young horse two years old that coutracted a bone and seeing your lintment known as Kendali’s Vin Cure advertised, upon my own responsibility I com- menced using it and within thirty days from that time and after having used only three bottles the Spavin was removed entirely, and therefore I natur- ally have the utmost confidence in its merits. I do not hesitate to recommend it to all who have occa- ston to use the medicine and should any one desire to confer with me I shall be glad to answer any com- munication relating to the case in question.

At an early hour the house was densely packed, but not till 9 o'clock did the bridal party appear.

To the kditor Mining Record : Sir.—I see that some friend has written you in regard to North Carolina’s exhibit of resources here. Thinking that you aod your readers might like to know something of the extent and variety pre- sented, I have concluded to place at your disposal some statistical facts. Begin- ing with gold ores. We have milling specimens from some fifteen or twenty counties as follows: 2 from Barke, 10 Cabarrus, 13 Caldwell, 2 Catawba, 6 Da- vidson, 4 Gaston, 2 Guilford, 3 Lincoln, 19 Mecklenbarg, 18 Montgomery, 2 Ran- dolph, 26 Rowan, 6 Stanly, and 5 Union. The others are from scattered localities. From this number, 119 milling specimens, (besides the scattered ones), some idea of the extent and character of North Caroli- na’s ore deposits may be gained. These specimens comprise all grades of ore from the simple free milling slates and milky quartz, toiron pyrite, iron and copper pyrite and auriferous chalcopyrite, gale- na and other complex ores. They are arranged so that they may be easily ex- amined, and we invite examivatioe from scientific men. Our exhibit of silver ores comprise some fifteen milling specimens, the most valuable of which came from Davidson county, though Rowan, Union, Caldwell, Cabarrus, Mecklenburg, Mont- gomery and Barke counties also furnish specimens, There are over thirty milling specimens of copper ore. Some fifteen of these are auriferous. The richest and purest specimens are from Mechlenburg, Rowan, Cabarraos, Guilford, Watauga, Ashe and Person. The ore from the last is exceedingly rich, gray or black copper, aud bas only recently been brought to notice. The section is being largely de- deloped and promises to become one of the greatest sources for this metal in the Union. It may not be well known that a good many of the Caroliua copper ores are gould bearing, as, for instance, at Conrad Hill. Here they run the ore through a stamp mill aud save by simple amalga- mation, from seven to ten dollars per ton in gold, before extracting the copper. Of iron ores, the exhibit is full and iuter- esting, with over thirty specimens: limo- nite, hematite, powder ore, spotted ore aud all grades of magnetite. Some of these ores have been analyzed, fur exam- ple, the Powder ore, from Ormond Ore Bank, Carolina Mining Company, King’s Mountain, N. C., specimens taken from four car loads, gave: Phosphorus se Prof. Geo. B. Hanna, of the Charlotte mint, who made these analyses says that he does not think the samples a8 a whole will go so high, but some of the better “o a a ra *~ ad bite, thirty-five per cent.in § ak! and large per cent. in Fergusonite, Mic- rolite and Hatchettolite. Tantalum, often to the extent of thirty per cent. in Columbite aud eighteen per cent. in Samarskite. i Decipiam, Phillipiam and Scandium, the lately discovered metals present in Samarskite and Fergusouite. Timbers: Some hundred and fifty sec- tions taken from the batts of trees, four feet long and cut so that the grain, both with and across, is shown, together with the bark. In addition, the plank of like trees are finished, or rather hand-polished showing the surface unchange in color. Another series of the same woods are varnished ; making altogether, the finest exhibit of woods and timbers ever made in this country from a single State. There are fine curled and waved woods for ve- neers, and manufactured articles in ad- dition to the timbers. Theré are many other things of interest here, but in anticipation of a visit from one of your Editorial staff, who will see fur himself, and through yoar columns for your readers, I will desist aud gladly wel- come him. T.¥%.:B. fd Ir Is Comine.--The great show—em- phatically the show of shows—the organ- ized consolidation of the Sells Brothers, who have for this seasov so added to its previous great attractions as positively te eclipse all other traveling exhibitions Always in the van, the Sells Brothers have so widened the gap between them- selves and the more pretentious of their rivals, as to make the latter despair of ever being able to catch up. A glance at the bills will satify the most insatia- ble appetite for amusement. There is the greatest and best selection of eques- trian and general performers in the couutry, and a show of the rarest animals frem every part of the world. Tribes of native Australians, Arabs, Hindoos and American Indians will add to the inter- est of the exhibition, which will be here on Tharsday, Oct. 11th. That our readers way judge of the merits of this vast enterprise, we copy from the “Courier Journal” the follow- ing: “It isa big show; it isa clean show; it is a respectably conducted show, None of those rough. rowdysh, tiresome or anpoying features which usually accom- pany a lavge cireus are present. The menagerie part is a treat, from its clean- liness, the size and convenience of the cages and condition of the animals. The visitor does not find a few worn out specimens of ill-fed and mangy avimals, so constantly exhibited as to become as commen us cows.

The Cranberry magnetite is the most beautiful and attractive ore on exhibit, aud is mach admired by people who kpow something of iron. It may be of interest to give here four aualyses made by Dr. Genth, and ove by Prof. Chandler of New York. They are taken from Kerr's N. C. Geological reports.

The iron beds of Western Carolina are practically inexhaustible. ° Coal from the coal fields of botl’ Chat- ham and Stokes counties, is very fair, be- ing semi:bituminons and _ bitumivoas. Coke is made from it. These coal beds ov Deep and Dan rivers, are important but as yet are not developed. The Deep river cual field is forty-three square miles in extent and the depth of the deposit is six feet. The Dan bed is about eighteen square miles in extent and the coal occurs in eight or more parallel stra- tas of from two to five feet in thickness. In this paper it will be impossible to go intuthe general exhibit of minerals, embracing about 150 varieties which are shown in considerable quantities, yet a few of the rarer minerals found in Prof. W. E. Hidden’s cabinet are of sufticient interest to deserve mention. They are ores of rare metals of special interest to chemists and mineralogists : Yttrium, to the extent of forty per cent. iu the Fergusonite from Burke county. Thorium, to the amount of six per cent. iv the Monazite from the same connty. Cerium, Naothanum, and Didymium, in the Monazite, Allanite and Samarskite from many localities. Zireonium, sixty-eight per cent. in the Zircons from Henderson county. Over 30 pounds of this mineral were ebtaived by two hands with a common rocker in a few daya. river ore (Gummite) at many of the mica mines Columbium, fifty per cent. iu colum- last.— Asherille Citizen. ++ me WastinGTon, Oct. 6.—Major Nicker- son, U.S. A., who was recently found in the courts to have obtained fraudulently a divorce from his wife, and who subse- quently disappeared, has written to the War Department from Thorald, Canada, but declines to obey the order to return to Washington. Sart Lake City, Oct. 6.—The fifty- third semi-annual Conference of the Mor- mon Chareh met in this city yesterday. The sessivn is being held morning and evening. This morning session was ad- diessed by Apostles Taylor, Yoang and Grant. ‘The atteudance is large, and the meeting show the determination of the Church to stand by polygamy. Capt. Turner W. Battle, of this county, has ten acres planted in cotton that he expects to make twenty bales of cotton from. He adopted the Furman plan on these ten acres, and would have made more, but for the cotton blight which is doing the cotton in Edgecombe so much damage this season.— Turboro Guide. Adam ate the apple because it looked ripe and lacious aud he wanted it aud his treachery to Eve, his cowardly betrayal of a poor, defenseless woman, who had no big brothers and rich kin to stand by her, has clouded his name for many thon- sand years. Ancient and modern history gibbits the traitor and makes treachery the most disgraceful of all crimes.

The os of the South says that George Brown,a colored boy about 16 a of age, was shot at Old Hundred ast Sunday by Frank Williams, col- ored, and died from the effects of the wound received a few hours afterwards. Arthar Bennet, colored, was lodged in ail here Monday by Deputy Sheriff ivingston as accessory to the murder, Williams making his escape.——Last Tuesday Mr. Martin Rash, one of Mont- gomery county’s oldest and best citizens, was so severely injured by his horse ronning away with him near his resi- dence (he had started to Troy court) that he died the following day. _ Asan evidence that the South moves it is pointed out that in 1860 the best railroad time botween New York and New Orleans was five days, and a passenger had te make nine changes, many of them long rides from depot to depot; in 1869 the time was reduced to four days, in 1873 tothree anda half days, and in 1878 to three days and only ope change. Now the time has been reduced to fifty-eight hours. A SENSIBLE SUGGEsTIN.—Store away a few bushels of dry road dust for the hens to dust in the next wister. Give them enough of it and have it entirely dry, so they can ‘make tlie dust fly” all through the hen house and cover the roosts and fill the cracks, and the lice must move out. This does not sound quite so nice as soapsuds, carbolic acid, kerosene, per- fect, cleanliness, &c., but it is more prac- tical and more likely to be done ona farm where washing henroosts is not the maiv business. Dust is also good to sprinkle on young stock, that should be carded and brushed out of the hair after the vermin have left.—Mirror & Farmer. ‘‘When does a man become a seam- stress?” When he hems and haws.” “No.” “When he threads his way.” ‘‘No.” When he rips and tears.” “No.” “Give itup.” ‘Never, if he can help it.”—Oil City Blizzard. West Virginia is twenty years old as a State. In that time her population has been nearly doubled. Virginia, which suffered in population both by the loss of territory and meu during the war, has just about regained her former position having almost as many inhabitants by the census of 1880 as the old aud andi- vided Virgioia had in 1860.—Border Watchman. —< MARRIED.

Diphtheria, a family disease and a most dangerous one, is almost immediately cured by one or two doses of Brandreth’s Pills, aided by a gargleof lime water. Rhumatism, which comes from too much acidity or too much alkasinity of the system, requires noth- ing but Brandreth’s Pills and a few good sweats to make a perfect cure. It is marvelous how they purify the blood. After two doses, the effect is seen in brightness of the eyes and clearness of the skin. All pim- ples and eruptions vanish like magic under the influence of this purifying purgative. We cannot stop the march of time with any medi- cine: but Brandreth’s Pills will remove the excessive lime from the system and pa&vent grey hair. They improve the sight and tone ap the human body, so that the old man’s eyes will be undimmed and his natural ‘force una- bated even after seventy years. Best in the World. Brandreth’s Pills have stood the test of forty- five years of use by the Amertcan people. They are entirely Vegetable. They are absolutely universal, for there is no diseuse they will not cure, if taken in time. They are safe for infants and adu'ta. They aim to ac- complish three things; first, to purify the blood; second, to cleanse and regulate the stomach and bowels; third, to stimulate the kidneys and liver and purge away the ashes of the RY B tem and diseased matters of the body. By pur- ging wi.h these Pills constantly, 9 new body ean be built up from fresh, healthy food in a few months. In this way, gout and rheuma- tism, ulcers and fever sores cin be eradicated in a few weeks. The worst cases of dyspepsia and costiveness can be cured by taking one or two pills eyery night for a month. In cases of twenty years’ standing, gentlemen have been cured by taking one pill a night for a year. Brandreth’s Pills give tothe human body, no matter how worn or decayed, the recuperative powers of youth. In their action, they imitate the rapid changes of the youthful body. We all wi-h to die of okd age, A hundred yearsis the natnral limit of life, which can only be In general debility, nervous tremor, and mental depression Brandreth’s Pills havea marvelous effect.

A Telegram representative called upon J., at his office in that city; to-day, in or- der to learn why the organization which he commands ‘had décided to’ petition Congress to provide a home for the indi- geut ex-Confederate soldiers. In answer to the reporter’s inquiry General Drake said : The Veteran Zouaves adopted the res- olation becanse their hearts have long soldiers -of the Confederate service, many of whom we know to be in indigent’ cir- cumstauces. Several Zouaves who re— cently retarved from an extended visit through the South, foand numbers of ex- Confederates without liome or shelter and they determined to do what in their power lay to ameliorate the condition of those who once confronted thein in battle array. We have seen men wlio held high rank in the Confederate service, appoint- ed by the Government to various posi- tions, even called to the Cabinet to advise with the President, but we have failed to or cared for in any way. The Veteran Zouaves were the first Union soldiers to invite their Confederate brethren to the family table, and the welcome which gave to General Roger A. Pryor, Colonel E. 8. Edwards, aud other chieftains, will never be forgotten by those who partici- pated in the pleasnres of that beautiful October day. Since Appomattox, the have becn desirous ef letting bygones be bygones. The geverous terms given to the magnificent Lee and his warriors of a handred battles by the greatest Gene al of modern times, caused 100,000 of us to go to Chicago in June, 1868, and nomi- nate the uoble leader for the highest office within the gift of the nation, and we did this because we had unbounded faith that he would never allow the Confederates to be imposed upon. But between the car- pet-baggers who overran the Seuth, and a ring of disreputable politicians at the North, the people of that section were plundered and a debt heaped upon them Which it will take long years to relieve themselves from. Meanwhile many of the unfortunate. soldiers of the South, very few of whom had any influence in originating the wicked war, are now in need, aud the Veteran Zouaves, all of whem are veterans in the strictest souse of the word, feel it to be their duty to urge Congress to do something to relieve their necessities. We believe that these men have suffered enough throngh the folly of designing men, and that it is sim- ply au aet of justice for our Government to provide a home for such of them as may stand in need thereof—a place where all who wish to avail themselves of its privileges may gather together in peace, and find the comforts of which they have so long been deprived. The brave men thus provided for will then be enabled to pass their few remaining daysin compar- ative coinfort, and by it those who are to follow will hover and justify the benefi- cence of a government which is at all times prepared to punish its enemies or care with fatherly love for its penitent wayward children. The Veteran Zon- aves contidently appeal to their comrades of the Union army, whose ranks are fast thinning, tu assist in this laudable affort; for when we shall all be summoned for rell call in that great encampment acress the silent river, those we leave behind will remember “How one wore the gray and the other the blue; How we passed away from the sight, To go to the land where the gray and the blue Are merged in colors of ight.” N. ¥.

Iv going out into a colder air, keep the mouth resolutely closed, and walk briskly for a few moments, thus pre- venting chilliness, which is always the precurser of a coli, The worst cold may be promptly cured if, within twenty-four hours af- ter it has been taken, the patient will keep warm in bed, and eat little or nuthing for a day or two.

EOnne nee Seeding Wheat. Prepare a piece of your best ground for wheat, ready for sowing early in October. Ifthe land is in corn or vther crop vow, of course. you mast wait Ul time for sowing the wheat befure you disturb the standing crop. But make all other preparations now, so that there may be no unnecessary delay when the time comes. Get the seed well screened, order the fer- tilizer at onee, and have plows and harness all in good order. But if the land is without a crop now, have it plowed ut once, the deeper the better so the subsoil is not thrown te the top, and afier it is plowed drag it, ounce, if it is very rough, in order to make a better seed bed and prevent seed from getting too deep, as many would be sure to do if sowed direct on a tough, half-inverted turf. Remember alawys, that, for wheat, a thorough prepara- tion of the ground by goud plowing, harrowing, aud manuring, is of the greatest importance, A sowed crop gets no other working, generally than that you give the soil at planting. Do uot, then, begrudge a little painstak- ing labor, but do the very best you can with the soil, make a fine, deep, mellow seed bed, manure with a lib- eral hand, and then you may reason- ably expect a crop that will pay you. Manvres that are rich in phosphoric acid and nitrogen are excellent for wheat, and those containing potash and phosphate are not to be despised. Guano, bone dust, phosphate and ashes will make heavy grain and good straw. Soil in which clay predominates is Lest for wheat. Hence the value of the red clay lands of the Piedmont section for this crop. But the yellow aid mottled clay lands of the tide water section are not to be despised either—they produce fine wheit when in good tilth and fertility. Indeed, we doubt if there is any better wheat land in the world than some of these same yellow and mottled clays of the east. And, by the way, this mottled clay land of North Caroliha is some- thing unique in the geological forma- tion of our section. It said to be en- tirely unknown in other States. Such land is admirable for fruits and all the winter grains, A slightly rolling surface, rather than a dead level, is to be preferred for any crop that has to stand all win- ter, as it is easier to drain, and less liable to rpst. Bat too rapid drain- age is objectionable, on account of the abrasion and loss of soil, On such land the water furrows should be laid with great skill, and a strict regard to a gentle flow of water. Wheat is sometimes improved by harrowing the land about two weeks after sowing. It should not be at- tempted when the land is wet. And the crop would be still further jm- proved by top dressing the land jiu lut mauure, or even the surface pings from the woods, The coarse will receive u jist share of ther houre, Cyas.

AMERICAN EXHIBITION. —_—— The Attraction at the Fair—What Nature has done for a single State—Phenomenal Resources and Varied Industries. Written for the Boston Commercial Bulletin. IE At the American Exhibtion in the vast | building of the New England Manufac- turers’ aud Mechanics’ Institate there is | more to be seen that awakens interest and excites admiration than at either ef the two fairs which have been held there. The exeentive managers of the Institute began with lofty and. am- bitions. Their first effort @ success their second surpassed it, pres- ent marks a new and splendid step in ad- vance. It does not derogate in the Jeast from the great merit and excellence of the | thousands of exhibits arranged iu the ; grand hall and broad galleries to say that the first place sought by the majority of adult visitors is the space occupied by the State of North Carolina, for the gen- tlemen who have that exhibit in charge liave rent their invitations to all parts of New England asking her farmers and ar- tisans to pay them a visit, and the re- | sponse is what might have been expect- | ed. These invited guests barry directly from the entrance to the broad stairway leading from the platform to the main floor, and then pause before descending to admire the striking scene that sudden- Overhead are broad draperies of the Union, red, white and blue, relieving the somberness of the In front is North Carolina, her nime shining oat in letters of frost work (they are made | of mica) froma back ground of leaves aud moss, the top of the sign being liter- | ally covered with small national flags. A | beat office is at the fore over which is an- other sign intimativg that information concerning the State may be had there, | }and on inquiry the guest fibds that a small library of publications is at his ser- | vice, all furnished by the agricultural de- partment of the State, whose commision- jer, Hou. Montford MeGehee, is there with a welcome for every visitor. Leaving the office and passing dowu one of the aisles the tirst thought of al- mostevery one is: Can it be possible that this rich and varied collection of ores— and mijuerals, of agricultaral products and of timbers was all obtained withio the bounds of a single State? ‘Yes,” replies the courteous commissioner, ‘our State is divided into three sections each abounding ip great and varied wealth. Be pleased to look around you and see what nature has done for it, and what its’ suil yields when experienced farmers cul- | tivate it.” The visitor invariably ‘looks around” (he cavnot help it), and the more he stud- ies the display the greater is his admira- tion for the wonderful batural resources of the old) North State. The following synopsis of what may be seen there will be useful to the Bulletin’s readers, al- | thongh it will be rather in the live of sug- | gestive hints than of a descriptive cata- | logue. THE USEFUL MINERALS of the State include mica, chromic iron, agalmatolite, whetstone, willstone, graph- baryte, marls, asbestus, soapstone, pyrite | and several kinds of buildiug stones. ed in the State’s exhibit. there are precious stones shown in cases, including agate, bery!, diamond, emerald, garnet, hiddenite, (a unique stone) opal, ruby, sapphire and zircon. Amovg the bailding stones there are several peculiar specimens, such as the leopardite, from its odd tracings and spots resembling a leopard’s skin; also granite with large and irregular green spots. These fanci- ful workings are probably due to segrega- tion of manganese, and the stone when polished jis yery handsome. There is nothing like it North. The marbles aud sandstones shown are susceptible of a high polish. The marble industry iu the State is not yet developed, and the speci- mens shown at the fair were detached from the surface veins. THE IRON ORES of North Carolina are widely distiibated over the State, and inelude all the prinei- pal kinds—maygnetite. hematite, limovite and siderite, and most of their varieties and iwoditications. As in all other branches of industry, this branch is im- perfectly conducted and only a few mines are ip first class running order. Sone sixty lots are shown in the exhibit. One of the most remarkable and persistent ranges of iron ore in the State crosses the county of Guilford, some tcn miles north- west of Greensboro. The ore is granular magnetic, and is every where titanjferous. The length of the outerop, air line, is t'.enty-eight miles. Amother ore belt, runvipg parallel with it at: a distance of three miles from it, known as the Shaw outcrop.

The mive is located one- half mile west of Wooten’s Station, on the Air-Line Railroad. THE GOLD EXHIBITS. The gold of North Carolina belongs to | four different geological positions, and is ' generally more or less alloyed with sil- ver yarying from pure gold on one side to pure silver on the other. According to the specimens shown in the exhibit, the auriferous ore of the State in a gener- al way embraces nearly one-half of the State, bat the productive area containa about 12,000 square miles. Nearly every mode of occurrence of guld known to the gevlogist and mining engiveer finds here an illustrative example, and the same _ is showu in the specimens ia the State's éx- hibit. The exibit of native gold and gold- bearing minerals attracts much attention that from Stanly, Montgomery, Ruther- ford and Caldwell counties being free milling, and that from the other counties obtaived in the form of sulphurets, In some of the counties of the State from half adozen to thirty-three mines are worked more or less. The average assay of gold iu the State is about $10 value per ton. In some instances as much as $600 a ton has been assayed. Rowan county is especially prolific in gold min- ing and milling, aud shows many speci- mens at the fair. A group of mines six- teen miles southeast of Salisbury are now being worked by an Foglish syndicate, and the assays have run from $450 to $255 70. The largest gold in nuggets on exhibition weigh 1)0, 90 and 56 penny- weights respectively, although naggets considerably larger are sometimes secur- ed. with the display’ of gold uuggets, quite a number of precious stones are shown. In connection Specimens of copper ores are also shown. Almostatl the North Carvliua copper mines in the central counties have beeu first worked for gold. Ingot copper is produced in Ashe county. USEFUL MINERALS AND STONES. The scope of the exhibit of specimens of useful minerals and building stones is a& surprise to many good people unac— quainted with the resources of North Cai- olina. For instance, mica mining has been carried on bere for years, aud one 'mive in Mitchel county yields a ton of marketable nica a month; and this re- gion furvishes the bulk of this mineral to A crystal of 312 pounds from a piece of North Carolina corundum js pow in the cabinet of Am- herst College, Mass. Ove of the largest beds of kavlin is found near Greensboro ; and fire brick is abundant in Gaston county. ‘The colored marbles, capable of a bigh polish, and greatly valued in areh- itecture as well other ouamental arts, are found in Macon and Cherokee counties and on Nantehaleh and Valley rivers. Seventy specimens of building as iu , Stones are found in the State ; these em- brace yranvite of every variety, gneiss, soapstone, tale, limestone, marble, tire- stove, limerock, of various shades aud texture, syevuite and porpho- ry. Builders aud others who linger around the North CarqgQina exhibit find much that is interesting and suggestive in specimens of building stoves. sandstone MANUFACTURING FACILITIES, North Carvliva is uo Jess famed in man- corundum, manganese, kaolin, fire clay, | Ufacturing facilities than inp natural re- sources. The aggregate water power of the State is about 3,500,000 horse-power, and this force is diatributed over the en— tire area of the State. ‘This power js ad and would manufacture three times the entire crop of the country, whereas all the mills in operation on the continent only spin ove quarter of it. There are specimens of cotton, raw and mauufac- tured ; woods in the rough and polished ; tobacco leaf and mavufactured tobacco ; flour, &c., in sight. The collection of hard woods on exhibition suggesta a source of immense wealth. These woods have laid the foundation fur extensive manufactures, such as wagons and car- riages, shuttles aud bobbins, platea and dishes of gam wood, winle the most val- uable cabinet woods are shipped abroad. The high finish or polish which many of the woods are susceptible of attracts the attention of manufacturers of wood. Mavy of these woods are unknown iu New England. Much of the cotton goods wauufactured are for local or home con- sumption, The kinds on exhibition equal the best made any where, so far as texture and finish are concerned. The cotton wills in the State now number 64, and operate 2,858 looms and 156,030 spindles. The fisheries of the State are the most important along the Southern Atlantic coast, employing over $500,000 capital, and yielding a total value of products to the fisherman of $450,000 annually.

Mary was kneeling down by the side of her bed, her eyes clesed and her hands clasped. If her mother had seen her she would have thoight she was praying, and she would have been pleased that she knelt so long. But she was only “saying her pray- ers,” not praying. Her mind was full of the young people down in the parlor, whose shouts of, merriment eame sounding up the Stairs every few minutes, and of the happy eve- ning she had had. They were all older than herself, and though her mother had allowed ber to sit up an hour later than tasual, the time had come when Mary knew it would not do to Leg for a “little more time.” But the longer she knelt the more her thoughts wandered gway from what she was tryin g todo, The words, some of them, passed tiroagh her mind, but that was all, At last she jumped up. ‘It’s no use,” she said, hurrying into bed. “I’ve tried my best. Well, nobody will kuow [ couldn’t get through the Lord’s priyer even. However it’s the first time in a gool many years that I went to sleep without saying it.” But Mary felt uncomfortable the few minutes she lay awake. She had been brought upto feel that she nust pray at least twice a day, just as much as she must eat her meals. She didn’t feel quite right, especially when moth- er came in and asked God to take care of her little girl and make her His child. Mary’s first dream was a strange one. She thought she was sitting in her little bed-room reading. But in- stead of the pretty wall-paper, cover- ed with rosebuds and delicate ferns, she found, on glancing up from her book, that the walls were white. As she looked she saw a fair looking be- ing, au angel, she supposed, beyin- ning to write on them: What was he trying to write? ‘Our Father which artin Heaven’—the Lord’s Prayer. But what were tho-e many words and lines that cameatter? ‘I wonder what play they’reat now? How tirey laugh! { think mother might bave let me sit up longer. I cameco near winning that last game, and—‘ Hallowed be’— Auna Ross suid that she would teach me that new crochet stitch to-morrow. Oh, dear! I forgot. Where did I leave off? ‘Thy name. ‘Thy’—Meta Joblnson said she didu’t have to go to bed till ten, ete.’ We don’t like to tell all the foolish thoughts of our little girl, with which she were soon filling the pure white walls. It seems too dreadful to put such words side by side with our Saviour’s beautiful prayer. Mary felt so asham- ed and grieved as she read on that she would gladly have covered her eyes, but they seemed held open and made to look. ‘Blot it out! blot it out!’ she eried at last; ‘I can’t bear it. I never thought those things would look so dreadtul when they were written. Caw’t something be done? Must Lal- ways have it there? I will rub it out myself. But it was no use, she soon found, The letters seemed to stand out more distinetly than ever, and on, on the angel wrote, soon filling the walls with what passed through her mind in so short a space of time. ‘Nothing you can du can blot it out,’ said the angel at last ; ‘one thing only can.’ Mary looked up to hear what he had to say more, but her joy was so great that she awoke with a start. Oh! whut a relief to see, by the light of the moon that filled her room, that the pretty rosebuds and ferns were still there, and no angel was writing down those foolish thoughts of hers. My little friends, 1 don’t need to ask you what only can blot out all these wrong thoughts aud words and deeds of ours? But I should like you to send me some texts about it, won’t you? Of course, it is unnecessary for me to ask any of you if you know ubout the angel who wrote on the wall of Belshazzar’s palace. But isn’t there a book where all these things are wrilten down, and remain writ- ten, unless blotted out by that one thing of which the angel spoke? There are other allusions to this book or these books. Who writes in them, and when will they be published? And how many things are spoken of las written in them? I can think of at least five things. How many can you find ? —~ HyproceNnium.— A_ curious fact about water is that the rust of the metal known as hydrogeniam.

Mr. Editor: At this season when chilly nights begin to warn of winter’s approach the minds of many are turn- ed towards Sunny Florida. Hence a word written from Emporia, in Vol- usia county, may be of interest to some. Your correspondent is enjoy- ing the hospitality of a North Careli-! va lady not unknown to many of your | readers, Mrs. E. B. Wilson—as her! husband was a Presbyterian in North: Carolina and the son of Prof. 8. B. O, | Wilson, for some time a professor at | Davidson College and descended from! a line of Presbyterian preachers, His | grandfater, Dr. Sam’! B. Wilson, of. venerable m , was for ma | professor at Union Seminary in ginia, Mrs. Wilson moved to Flori-' da some two years ago from Lenoir, ' N.©., with her two sons, aged at present 15 and 19 years. Her home is on Lake Hester on the east side of | which the young and growing town | of Emporia is located. Emporia is four miles north-east of Volusia on the St. John’s river, and far enough away to escape the river- bottom :nalaria, It is situated on a nice ridge of rolling pine lands iuter- spersed with beautiful clear water lakes,which extend northward to Cres- | ent City. It is so located as to be very | near the lines of projected railroads in the near future and now only four miles from water transportation with. a good hard road. Many orange groves are starting besides a number . of fine ones in full bearing. Saturday | in riding around the country I saw an enclosure in which were nearly 100 , acres of thrifty groves owned aud ten- |, ded by Mr. Drudy and just south- west of his place is Mr. Beers, who’ has charge of a number of groves for various parties, Several stores, a saw- mill, and a blacksmith shop are al-| ready here, and lots are being sold | indicating rapid growth. We are surprised to see so many new homes going up in every direction through tne surrounding country, This, too, before the unparalleled boom expect- ed this fall has commenced. But we began for the purpose of. reoordiug Presbyteriau progress at this place. Last winter, Rev. Gilbert Gordon, Evangelist of St. Jolin’s Pres- bytery heard of a few Presbyterians aud visited them and preached. At that time there was no church building here. Soon afterwards the Southern Methodist began a church! 40x60 feet, weatherboarded, Huored | and covered it aud found themselves unable to complete it. And as the: land and a large part of the lumber; was given on condition that they fin- | ish it ready for worship, they could | secure no title. It was offered to the Baptist who declined and afterwards to the Presbyterians. In the mean- time a Presbyterian church was or- ganized by Mr. Gordon, aud this sum- mer Rev. A. Enloe, another Evangel- ist of St. Jolin’s Presbytery in Orange county, began regular monthly preach- ing. Mr. Gordon advanced some $55 which was necessary to secure the house and a proper deed. Our church extension committee has voted $125 to assist in finishing the building which was last week received. Thus all are encouraged and the way is clear to finish aud dedicate within three or four weeks. Many citizens who could give nothing when uncertain as to its being finished now come forward and it will svou be nicely finished and ready for use. Nothing succeeds like suscess. This is a good large and handsome build- ing beautifully located, and the com- munity feel proud of it. The Presbyterians are specially en- couraged, and the community, which a year ago knew little of Presbyteri- anism, are in hearty sympathy with their efforts. A.

In describing some of the scenes and incidenta attending the excava- tian of the dead and living at Ischia, a correspondent says: A boy of twelve had just been found, not hurt, but wandering among the ruins, looking for the spot where his home had been. I asked him whom he had lost. “They’re all gone,” he said, “father and mother and everybody.” Two young girls who had-been buried for three days, said when they were dug out: “Ah, you do not kuow what it is to be buried in the dark for ten hours.” They had no idea of the real time which had _ elapsed. One of the most touching incidents which came under my knowledge was that of a father distractedly urg- ing on the work of the excavators on the spot where he had lost his little son. He was calling the child’s name in hoarse and trembling tones, when suddenly a little voice was heard frem amid the broken masonry: To Heaven ina Pullman Car. “And his [Eleazer’s] sword clave to his hand,” was the Rev. Mr. Tal- mage’s text at the Brooklyn Taber- nacle last Sunday. He contrasted the Hebrew general’s energy in fight- ing the Philistines with easy-going ways of these modern Christians who want a “rose-water aud kid glove” campaign. “They want to ride to Heaven in a Pullman sleeping car,” said he, “with their feet on plush cushions, They want the bed made up early so that they can sleep all the way, and have tne black porter, Death, only wake the:n up in time to roll in the Golden City, They want soft sermons, in morocco covers, laid down before them on velvet cushions, Bat that is not the way.to salvation. }Me must expel. from.the ohiyroh those who eat the commuyijh bread on Sunday and eat the widow’s houses all the week.

Hereto- fore, as a rule, when the Democrats have won victories or made great guips their boom was in the cities and large towns. When the Republicans have held their own or made gains iv the cities they have usually shown increased strength in the rural regions. In short, the coun- try has been always regarded as the Republican stronghold. It is so in New York and other castern States as wellas in the West. But in the results of Tuesday's electivus we see just the re- werse of this. The Republican losses were almost wholly in the country pre- cinta, while, as to Ohio, they made con- Siderable gains in the big eities. ‘The same thing is true, substantially, of Iowa. There the Republican party was unyicld- gng in the larger towns, but the Demo- #erats gained heavily ip the interior counties, It is curious, also, to pote the fauses given for the reversal of ibe rule of former years. One of the reasons as— signed by Republican politicians for the Republican losses in the rura) districts of Ohio is that farmers, especially large wool srowers, wore incensed at the action ot Congress in reducing the duty on wool - nd desired to “resent the encroachment «-ftree trade” upon their interests. Un- atoubtedly that had something to do with augmenting the Democratic vote and de- feating the Republican ticket. But an- other and quite the contrary reason is aiven for the Democratic gains in the in- terior precincts of lowa. ‘There the free fruders, by vigorous and persistent preaching of their hereay, seem to have made av impression on the farmiag come gaunity. These odd results ef ‘Tuesday's viitical struggles in two States serve to jilastrate forcibly what every body knows, viz; that the United States ix a big coun- try, containing a vast population, of va rious degrees yf juteijigence and of curi- ausly diverse ways of looking at_ their own interests.

Mr Epiror:-—-On the 22d day of the past month there was issaed a circular letter by a manafactarer of plaids in this State and addresed, I presume, to all partics engaged in making cotton goods, cowplaining of the couduct of the Insar- ance Companies in raising their rates on mills of the character to) which I refer- red, The first sentence is iv the follow- ing words: “The Insurance Companics deing business inthis State, have all united themselves into one association, called the Senath Eastern Tariff Associa- tion, thereby Waking themselves a mon opoly by preventing any competition in rates.” 1 did not kuow, before I read the cirenlar, that) such was the faet, and am much obliged tothe author of it) for directing my attention to this, one of| very muny evils of monopoly. [ beg to assure him that Lam ready to join bim and all others interested in resisting, as best we may, this attempt to force us to pay exhorbitant charges fur their poli- gies of insurance, We can suc e d, dam happy to say, for we are not obliged to deal with theip companies. We can just let them roll their exrds aroand withont contribittivg my thing to them. But, fortamutely forthe consumers of the country—who constitute fully three- fourths of the people—they are in no condition to resort to the same remedy against other monopolies which are at war wilh justice and with their interests. Che only thing which they ean do is to send members to Congress who will repeal all laws which bring about these iniquitous rests. The gentleman from whose circular [ quote, having in that circular set forth his views upon ove of the wrongs of a monopoly, I feel very sure cannot be inconsistent with his own doctrine and advocate the continuance of another whose hardships fall upon a large majority of his countrymen. He cannot be the gentleman who had the conversation with Col. Charles R. Jones, to which I referred in’ my first paper. No man who complains of a monoply upon the.parsof insurance companies, can sustain one by Congress, for the benefit of certuin favered classes. And yet Congress is doing, at the instance of many of the manufacturers a more griev- ous wrong tothe people, than the in- surance companies can commit or even desire to commit. Congress passes a law which forces the consumers of cer~ tain clisses of goodsto pay a higher price for them than they would haye to pay, but forthe law, and thereis no The insurance compan- ies only desire by combinations, not legislation, todo the same thing. If it ig wrong for these companies to take such action as requires resistance upon the part of manufactarers, is it not right for the people to resist the legislation which works for them sugh grievjons injury ?

No Party then stood forth as the cham- pion of a Tariff for protection with in- dustrial reyenne—as the present system has been very justly characterized. What was the rate of duty upon Quin- ine, until the Forty-sixth Congress re- pealed it ! No matter—it was probibitory. Under its provisions two establishments only, as lam informed, engaged in mak- ing the article—both in Philadelphia. A few mouths after its repeal av attache of the New York Tribune exnitingly asked the qnestion--do low Tariffs make low goods: hew about quinine f It was still over $4 per onnee. The reply was mede: Wait awhile, my friend. Allow a little time, and you will be answered.” That time speedily came, and Powers and Wightman and Rosengarten & Sons weuld be glad now to get $2per ounce for all they make. Do they manufacture the article now? If they de, and can fake money at $2, how mach did they make at $41 Who paid the tax? The consumer. How mnel of it did the Gov- ernment get? Perhaps these protected mopopolies could answer, And this is ouly an illustration of the enormities of a system whichis based upon fraad. Still this system has its apologists. But these apologists are exelusively persons whose sapposed ioteresta make them disregard priveiple or they are these who are owned aud centrolled by them. Let no one snppose me to be inimical to the manafacturing industries of the codntry. Sueh a charge would be unjnst in the extreme and an exceeding. “plain tale would put it down.” It may be that I am too stupid to comprehend what these industries need which the Goveru- ment can rightfully give. It is certain that I wonld not advocate any legista- tion whieh would do a’ wrong to one class of our people to benefit another class. Against that, lam making my protest, and I say unhesitatingly that au industry which cannot be maintained iu this country without taxing one part. of the people to upheld it, oaght vet to be maintained at all. Every thing which they who are cngaged in manufacturing have a right to expect is a fair chance for competition with all the world. This ean only be had by veyulating the daties on imports 80 that whilst the §ieeded revera: is raised all accidental advantages flow- ing therefrom may be utilized. Tam for considering the general interest —for the “general welfare’ is what the Govern- ment was established to “promote.” If Congress can fix upouw arule which will afford competition among producers every where it will aim ata result whose Justice enn never be snecesstally impeack- | ed; and which whilst it: is just, is truly Deueticent.

They say I lave dane my best to be President. I will assume that this is so for the sake of the argument. Tie republicans say that ulthoagh most of my acts have been they came from this motive. But how could L expect te make myself a candi- date for the Presidency if it wasn't by carrying the Commonweal.a well, and by winning the people to promote me to the highest position, Could I win the presi- dency by bad deeds and by disgracing the State ? “They admit that 1 have large acquain- tance with public men, and that I have great talent and shrewduess and canning.

The were existence of such a system is out of accord with our Federate form of Government. It is to eentralize poweract Washington and to plage a bureau of spics over the actions of the citizen, One ortwo of our cuon- temporaries are oppsed to the abolition because they are in favor of taxing luxu- ries, such as tobacco and spirits. It is not a question of taxation bat one of policy. Take the question of internal taxation out of the hands of the General Govern- ment and let the States decide whether or not these articles shall be taxed. Cer- tainly the Legislature of North Carolina is to be trusfed in suc} a matter just as well as the Congress of the United States. Let the States put just as high a tax on tobacco and whiskey as they bear now and devote the proceeds tothe public schools. The Internal Revenue must go. —Lenojr Topic. _—_—- —~—be-— One of the curiosities of tree grafting is to be sceron the old) Asbury place now owned by Alexander & Harris, near this city, where stands a large black walnut tree which the late Dr. Asbury experimented upon some years ago.

Boston, Oct. 12, 1333. Messrs. Hussey of the Patriot, and Jo- seph Caldwell of the Landmark, (two of Carolina’s best papers) have been on here to sce for themselves what North Caroli- na has done. They eame two days in ad- vance of the State Press Association, and independent of that body. They spent much time in the exhibit and their words of unhesitating commendation sonice of much gratifyeatian to all whe hyve been engaged iu the work both here were a and at home. On Thursday evening of last week, some 25 persoms constituting the Press Association of North Carolina arrive:l. Among them were President Londoo, Seeretary Stone, Mr. Ashe and Mr. Hale. The visit of the Aassuciation was of the most pleasant character—they were the recipients of many courtesies from the city authorities and from the Boston press. On Fiiday after their arrival they were taken to Deer Island, oue of the reforuia- tovies of the city. It is beautifully loeat- ed in Boston tive miles distant from the city. The steamer which carried these guests also conveyed a lot of prisoners, and one of the most inter- esting features of the trip was the hearing of thier examination by the sup- erintendent. Out of the whole lot, some fifty, bat ove professed that it was the first visit to the place, and bat two came back bearing the same name. It seems that when they doff their prison clothes, the also leave thew names, taking auch names as suits their canvenience. After this interesting spectacle was ended the party was shown over the institution. It is very complete in all its departments. They have splendid schools fur boys and Harbor, some girls. Vhis State, as you know, has a compulsory educational law. All the truants from the public geliools, aud all children whose parents donot make them attend the public schools, are brought here, and fureed to take a primary edu- cation. Everything in this school tends to elevates the child toa higher plane— they have suered aud secular music and a brass band of their own, taught by train- ed teachers, and, also, all the innocent amusements. ‘The last place visited was the wursery. This is filed with infants of all ages—children left ou the charity of the world, either by the indigent pa- rents oras orphaus, The institatioa isa monument to a christiau community, and is conducted in the most humane manner.

Eestatic vision, savoring of en- chantment aa the halo died amid the mists of deepening shade. All on board were bashed in admiration, and seemed in full commauion with nature. The scene mast linger in the memories of those who saw it; for the glory of that dying day filled The evening sun 7 | aie | — ee every heart. Following those apires as they pointed silently toward the pecring stars, the heart waa kel on, aud on, to the Great Creator. God. The striking of the bell and the busy scene on the warf brought back the world. Looking each other ia the eye, we saw and felt that we were better for having enjoyed that sight. On Saturday the editors of the Commer- cial Bulletin gave the Associatien an ele- gant banquet at the Parker House. The oceasion was honored with the usual toasts and short speeches, On Sunday, carriages were provided, and the party went fora drive over the city. The Highlands, Breokline, Har- vard College, the town of Cambridge and Bunker’s Hill were visited. Ou Monday, an excarsion was arranged to Lynn, Law- rance and Lowell, three of the great man- ufactaring towns of Massachusetts. On Tuesday they took in the foreiga exposition, aud Thursday night they were tendered an extravagaut banquet by the City Press Club. This banqnet was the culminating event of their visit, and there will be no attempt made here to describe it. Thisisa mere outline of courtesies extended to the party while here. They will certainly fill their jouruals with what they saw, so that your correspoudent néed vot iodulge in a twice tuld tale. - It may be well to mention that they all left Boston iy fatr health. The attendance at the fair has been nearly four times as great this week as last, and is inereasing very perceptibly every day. With this constant rush of visitors our little force is kept constaut! employed, hardly having time for enjey - ivg meals. Some dark looking mineral bronght from Barke county has beeu carefully examin- ed by eminent men here and in New York, nod has beep pronounced tin ore, (cassi- terite.) of high grade, carrying seventy percentum of tin. This is a valuable dis covery aud will doubtless lead to a thor- ough exploration of the locality. Mr. McGehee, the Commissioner of Ag riculture, leaves for North Carolina this week.

Those of us who remain here regret that he finds it necessary to return; for hia presence has, been an unceasing source of pleasure to those associated with him.

Wasuincton, Oct. 15.—In the Supreme Court to-day, Justice Bradley delivered the decision in the case of the United States vs. Samuel D. Singleton, involv- | ing the constitutionalitvy. of the act of Cougresa, of Mareh 1, 1875, entitled “An act to protect all citizens iu their civil and legal rights.” Ile decided that the first and second sections of the act are unconstitutional. Jastice Bradley took the ground that the scope of the 13th and Mth amendments did not extend to the secial privileges sought to be guarantced by the Jegisla- tiou in question. The court was unani mona with the exception of Justice Har- lan, who said that ander ordinary cir- cumstances he would be slow to oppuse hisindivisdual judgmeuttohis colieagues but this decision defeated what the peo- ple intended to secure, and supposed thes had secured, and hence he must dissent from the opinion. He had not had time to formulate his views, however, and would, therefore, merely auuounce his dissent. Quite a number of prominent lawyers were within the bar to listen tothe opinion including the Attorney-General, and Sen- ators Bayard and Garland. The decision will apply to the tive civil rights cases in that Court, based on the first and see- oud sections of the civil rights aet of Mareh Ist, 1875.) They are respectively prosecutions ander the act for not admit ting certain colored persons to equal accommodations and privileges iu inns or hotels, in railroad cars or theaters. The court holds, as stated, that Con- gress had no constitutional authority to pass the sections in question under the 13th or 14th amendment of the constitu- tion. The decision, however, is held te apply only to the validity of the law in the States and not in the Territories of District of Columbia where the legisla- tive power of Congress is uulimited. The decision is the subject of universal com- ment here to-night, and it is safe to say that vo decision of the Conrt since the famous Dred Seott deeision by Chief Jus- tice ‘Toney has created so much excite- wept and discussion. _—_- - -— The Louisville Convention of Colored Men bore too mueh upon the exclusion of the negro from polities aud vot cnoagh npey hia necessities with respect to edu- cational and industrial advancement.

In levying the assessment it hecomes necessary to assess all per- sons living within certain boundaries asd the opponents of the measure arge that it is wrong to tax the negroes living in those boundaries for the declared par- pose of establishing a graded schuol for whites, even though the law provides that all the money paid by - the negrves shall be expended in their educatiou.

Our attention has been drawn to a new invention which, in the first place, con- sists of the utiligation of oxidized vil, which, although possessitg’ peculiar and valuable propertie’? remarkably like ind dia rubber, ts not verf gefertlly known, nor used to the extent to which it wight be applied. ‘This oil is a body of a tough and clastic nature, but hickiug the cohe- sion of india rubber, which’ fé perhaps, the principal reason why its use is limi- ted. It therefore oedurved to the inven- tor of the new floor covering, that if this body could be combined With a felted fibrons material, it would form an article of great valae. He has, therefore, devised w method by which the oxidized oil ean can be incorporated with paper palp. The result is a stroug, soft and elastic fibrous material, which can be put to innumerable uses, according to the raw material employed and the method of treatment... Thos, excellent floor cloth cau be produced iy a variety of quatities conside:ably cheaper than Jimoleum, and of much more pleasing appearance. With certain bituminous admixtures a mate- rial can be made so cheap that it ean be employed asa reofiug felt, aud ship's sheating felt; and for these purposes it be made almost tire proof. It would be a most valuable materi] to all classes of cogiveers asa substitate for india rubber; and as it ean be vuleanized and hardened like ebonuite, it is sujtable for electhical parposes. It would make ex- cellent soles for boots in the place of gutta percha, and it may be employed asa substitute for the latter for many purposes. The inventor has also just patented another process by which the mar ufae- ture of paper may be applied te a num- ber of purposes, amongst Which, to the manufacture of soft felty fibrous material to be used in the place of felt and othe: carpets, and where coolugss aud smell of oil cloth are objectionable. By this process a material quite as soft as ordin- ary felt carpets cau be prodaced ata lower price aud of a more durable va- ture.—Printer’s Circular. — Boston, Oct. 13.—Edwin G.

Already thonsands of land leaguers are on their way from all directions to the place of meeting, and to-day military and police reiufurcements to the number of a thousand were sent to Dorcester to assist the local constabalary in preserving order.

Thus they will restore to the busy active brain of man or woman, the energy and ability which has been lost by disease, wor ry or overwork. They restore vitality where there has been debility and nervous- ness, and prevent loss of memory and pa- ralysis. Physicians highly recommend them for nervous debility, wlicther arising from dissipation or overwork.

( AL tcock’s PLasTERS have been of such great service to me and mine that I feel it a duty to state the facts, as briefly as possi ble, to induce others to usethem. My wife for many years was contined to her bed suffering from spinal disease. After spend ing a thousand dollars in vain effort to get cured, she applied three ALLcocK’s P1Las— TERS to the spinal column, one above the other. Ina few days all pain left her. She applied fresh plasters every two weeks and in the course of two months she coim- pletely recovered her health. At first she could hardly walk across the room; each day she walked a little further, and now she is able to walk five miles without fa- tigne. She still occasionally applics the plasters to her back, but she has been per- tectly well for upward of a year. LEWIs L. HAMMEL. CURE OF SPRAIN. sure fruit. bays.

Those who prune long must svon climb. 11. Vine leaves love the sun; the fruit the shade. 12. Every leaf has a bud at the base, and either a bunch of fruit or a tendril opposite it. 13. A tendril isan abortive fruit buneh—a bunch of fruit, a produtive tendril. 14. A bunch of grapes without a healthy leaf opposite is like a ship at sea without a rudder—it can’t come to port. 15.

Widgeon, ‘Vil tell you. The preachers know very well that the widowers, instead of needing prayers, should offer up thanks.’ There was a sound of revelry by night in the Widgeon mansivy.— Texas Siftings. a Potatoe Recepes by Miss Corson.

Sides It is not to sweep the house and make the beds and darn the socks and cook the meals chiefly that a man wants a wife. If this is all he wants, hired servants can do it cheaper than a wife. If this is all, when a young man ealls to: see a young lady, send him into the panfry to taste the bread and cakes she has mace; send him to see the needle- work aud bed-making or put a broom in her hands and send him to witness its use. Such things are important and the wise will qniet- ty look after them, But what the true man wants of a wife is her com- panionship, sympathy and love. The way of life has many dreary places in it, and man needs a com- panion to go with him, A man is sometines overtakea by misfortune; he meets with failures and defeats, trials and temptations beset him, aud he needs one to stand by and sympa- thize. Ile has some stern battles to fight with poverty, with enemies and with sin, and he needs a woman that, as he pots hisarm around her, he feels that he has something to fight for; who will put ber lips to his ear and whisper words of counsel, and her hand to his heart and impart new inspiration, All throagh life, through storm and sunshine, cunflict and victory ; throagh adverse and favorable winds man needs a woman’s love. The heart yearns for it. A sis- r’s and mother’s love will hardly Supply the need, yet many seek poth- ing further than housework. Justly enough, half of these get nothing more. ‘The other half surprised above measure, obtain more than they sought. Their wives surprised them by giving a noble idea of marriage and disclosing a trasure of courage, sympathy and love, —- COREA. The and which Doesn't Hesitate to Sacrifice a Stranger’s Head. Corea lies as a peninsula between the Japan and Yellow seas, project- ing from the northern part of the em- pire of China. It is a kingdom, with au area of 80,000 square miles. The king of Corea is asuprer:e ruler, His word is law, even when it affceis live or death, and he is almost considered a god, and the greatest honors possi- ble are paid to him. ‘Three ministers constitute the king’s cabinet, and they ure virtually the government. Each las lis various sub-officials, and all are honored in keeping with the dignity of their positions, The king has no great standing army, for the empire of China protects him against iuvusion from fcreign foes or from internecine strife. At one time, the Turanian language was the universal speech of the kingdom, but the Chinese language has largely taken its place. At one time Buddhism was the national religion, but Confucius’s teachings have largely replaced it since the 14th century, and it may be considered the national religion to-day. There are still many superstitions extant, and there is a great belief in the power of evil spirits. Great at- tention is paid to. funerals and the worship of the ancestors. ‘There is also a general belief in the supernat- ural powers of serpents and reptiles. The women cut a sinall figure in the recognized asa universal practice, and marriage is considered a matter of family policy. Education is lookcd upon as a necessity, especially in pub- lic life, and no official can hold uffice without first having passed a public examination. The abodes of the lower classes are miserable hovels, one story high, tev er twelve feet square, built of wood, clay and rice straw, with a thatched roof. The floor is mother earth, and the furnishment is simple. The dude would have little show there, for the fashionable costume consists of a pair of coarse cotten cloth and very buggy breeches, and very long vests. As for head gear, anything will answer, from a rice straw to a palm leaf hat, and when that is not procurable, the peo- ple go bare headed. The punishmente for crimes are severe and tortures frequent. Harakari is a mild kind of punishment. Men are put to the tor- ture, aud are frequently condemned to lose a Jeg or a thigh, an ear or an eye, and sometimes they take off the scalp just under the ears, omitting to leave any portion of the head. When a man commits treason, they not only punish him by cutting off his ears or ‘his leg, but they do the same thing to his wife and his wife’s relations. ‘The climate of Corea is said to be very temperate and heathful. Rice, millet, wheat, rye, cotton, hemp, etce., /are its principal productions. The minerals are said to abound in great profusion, INTELLIGENCE OF ANTS.—LT ach ant in an ant-hill knows its compan- ions. Mr. Darwin several times car- invariably detected and killed.

It is one mile from the public highway leading to Salisbury, from which road itis easily accessible down to the water’s edge. The peculiar feature of this property is that itis a natural stone dam which makes about a six foot head of available water. The dam runs at anangle of about 20 or 25 deg. up the river nearly all the way across, gradually dimjnishing in height asit approaches the opposite shore. A race of 400 feet in length will add from 12 to 14 additional feet of head, mak- ing the grand pcewer of 18 or 20.

BY MARIA GIBBRT. “Dum _ spiro spero!” was the ex- clamation of a young man, as he de- scended the steps of a pleasant house in one of our Southern cities, and with a lightened heart bent himself toward his place of business. He had been striving to conciliate where cause for offense from himself had never been given. “For,” thought he, “she is unfortunate in this particular; only a little jealous now and then, which goes to prove her love for me, and if her trials are imaginary, mine, the result of them, shall be transitory, for what were life to me without Mary ?” Seareely had he thought thus, when alittle flower girl met his view, holding forth for sale a bunch of rich exotics, in) which, with the heliotrepe and japonica, were bound, side by side, two beautiful moss rose- buds, tempting the young moralizer to purchase at once. Arthur V. gave his address to the little girl, charging her to ask the lady with whom he was a boarder to preserve carefully the flowers until his return, and continuing his route, he congratula- ted himself as he thought of the pleasure his gift would afford the lived one; for Mary loved flowers, and those buds were beautiful and rare. A few minutes after young V. had passed into another street, the person of fair Mary met in her daily ramble the girl with the flowers. Attracted by the uncommon beauty of the buds, Mary learned from the bearer the destination, which she rightly judged was, in the end, for her own enjoyment. During the bright June morning, a merry, light hearted, teasing girl set out on her tour for pleasure, and turning acorner, she espied on the ground a moss rosebuil—twin to the one inthe purchased benquet, and earelessly dropped by the flower girl —which she placed in her bosom, then took her course to her cousin Mary, the betrothed of Arthur V., designing to chat a while with her, after she nad spent an hour with a friend on the way. Meanwhile young Arthur hastened with a lover’s earnestness to present his floral offer- ing in person, where it was only equaled by the bloum and freshness of her to whom he had devoted his best gifts of a true and ardent spirit, a loving and faithful heart. his bouquet, Mary suddenly exclaim- ed, “But where is the other bud?” That there had been more than one was a fact which had escaped his no- tice; and while the lady frankly told him of her previous admiring scrutiny, he as frankly assured her that he had presented his gift entire, as he found it. buds onthe beuquet a short time before, Mary was right in asserting ; that she saw but one then was an incontestable truth, and the only up to doubt. This was the spot that, like the heel of Achilles, was destin- ed to receive the arrew which pois- oned all her peace. So with feeling smarting in her heart, con- a by a smiling lip, she parted with her friend, whese engagements prevented a protracted stay. It was nothing wonderful that Ra- chel should wear a rosebud in her bosom, or that, on questioned during her call on her cousin, she should decline satisfying a curiosity as te whence it came. It was natural for Mary to doubt herself, and for that reason her faith in others was weak. It was from mirthfulness alone that Rachel con- cealed the truth of having found the bud, and without dreaming how deeply her words stung the ear that received them, she left her cousin @ the house of While admiring the fragrance of That there were two dark impulse in Mary’s bosom rose this had deceived, and Rachel had tri- umphed. It was in vain Mary reason- ' ed with herself. The token of re- gard too plainly worn by Rachel was enough to satisfy even a mind less suspecting than her own, so when Arthur V. made his next visit he found the following note awaiting him : . “Unwilling to share your gifts with another, or to accept a divided heart, and feeling myself to be more arbitrary in my requirements that can possibly coincide with your hon- or and truth, I write to release you from an engagement that will leave one of us free, and the other, | trust, happy.” Springing from his seat like one pierced through the heart, he left , the house forever, and engaging a situation as supercargo on board an India ship embarked for an indefi- nite length of time, after leaving a note as follows for his unjust, though | still loved and never forgotten, Mary : “ «What ing—an shaken Mary. is he to Hecuba ?’ noth- unsightly excresence to be, off. Farewell, my dearest Peace and happiness attend you. I will not thrust myself upon your attention, will not) weary you with my presence. Thank you, gentle one, for past favors; for beguiling many «a weary hour—for that benevo- | lence that prompted so great a sacri- fice for one who now feels that he) had a place in your heart, and can therefore better appreciate your kind- ness in yielding him your grace and countenancr, purely for his own good, May he on whom you next conde- scend to smile be more -vorthy of you, more like, and bet er ab’e to make yon an adcquate return for all you give. Many there are whose endouw—- ments will recommend them to your respect and love—who, having gain- ed will be able to retain their p'ace in your affection. May it be yours to find such frieuds. Think some- times, will you not, of the ruptured tie? When new ones cluster around you, think of him who gave his all, and had not more that he could give —whos offering was rejected.” It was said by those who knew | him that Mr, V. would re‘nin at the, end of the year; but twenty years rolled by, and with then came uo news from her lover to Mary, nor did they give any outward signs of relenting; but, Time, as he brought his annual offerings for the accept- ance of his child—each season a thread of silver for ber hair, or a richer experience in the diseipline of life—Time always found her single, true to him, Twenty years—it was a long while to remember, but Mary was just seventeen at the time of her enguage- ment, and she was one of these whose heart never grows old. Late ina gloomy autumn, while the husbandman was feeling that, while he wipped his brow at the gathering of his harvest, he was being baptized and purified in the approval of his Master’s smile for his industry and toii, while an In- dian Summer procluimed itself more beautiful than its predecessor and the spring beside our single sister Mary found herself seated one day at the eod of a long table at dinner with several friends, who had requested her to accompany them to I Hall, a fashionable resort fur strang- ers of leisure, and where, at the oppo- site end, sata group of dark com- plexioned gentlemen, merrily engag- ed in discussing some point of great interest. “And what kept you single so long?” said ene, with his untasted glass upraised, as he addressed hig vis-a-vis, the face of whom Mary did | not see. “Me?” was the reply, in a voice that went to the ear of Mary, through that long hall, with a cadence never forgotten, now melting into her heart, “Me? why a rosebud made me a bachelor.” “Then let us drink to the rosebud,” said his questioner, and reaching for- ward to fill his glass, the eyes of Ar- thur V. rested on those of Mary, who had sat almost paralyzed by that voice she had never thought to hear again. | It is needless to attempt describing the meeting which was soon followed by marriage.—N.

With- out its anthority the first’ call ‘for? troops was made by Mr. Lincoln, and afterwards conseript laws were enact- ed and thousands of men foreed into the army against their will. North- ern States outside of the line of battle were place under martial law, and provost marshals became supreme over State authorities. Democrats who dis- approved of the arbitrary acts of the administration were arrested ar d held as prisoner in dungeons, tried befure military courts. mocratic papers were suppressed and their editors sent to jail, free speech was denied, and the writ of habeas corpus suspended. Slaves were enrolled as soldiers in the army, and the property of Southern people confiscated and seld, And fin- ally, as the grand climax of arbitra- ry proceedings, came the emancipa- tion proclamation, justified as a war measure, outside of the constitution, after the backbone of the Confederacy had been broken, and its defeat -inev- itable. As they trampled upon the coustitution during the war so did they subsequently in their despotic ' reconstruction legislation utterly dis- regard it. They made no pretense of being governed by it. They were in- tent upon holding power, regardless of the methods, In violation of the constitution they divided the South- ern States into military districts, and placed them under military commman- ders whose power was supreme, the s were held under the eupetyi of these satraps and the resuft leaded by them. The Freedman’s bureau was established as a part of the despotic machinery to control the States. Thousands of the best white men in the South were dis- franchised, while the negroes were en- franchised. Provisional governors were appointed, governors and other State officers elected by the people ousted, and Senators and members of the House of Representatives elected by the people rapped at the doors of Congress and found them closed. And even at this late day there are South- ern men who are deprived of eitizen- ship and test oaths encumber the stat- ute books. This is but a hasty glance and only a partial record of the anconstitution- al legislation of the Republican party, of whieh the civil rights bill, was a sort of appendix. The truth is that nine-tenths of the national legislation while the Repablican party bad un- limited sway was purely arbitrary and without constitutional authority. In all this time the Democratic party trne to its trust stood by the constitu- tion, defended it and protested against its violation, though in a minority battling bravely aud hopefully against superior numbers led by bold, unprin- cipled and unscrupulous leaders whose respect for the constitution was shown in the accepted and approved declar- ation that it was a “league with death and acovenant with hell.” Charlolte Observer. me Ohio in 1884.

Ino 1856 the vote of the State went to Fre- mont, the Pathfinder, who lost his path to the White House and never got within gun shot of it afterwards. In 1860 Ohio voted for Lincoln, and increased the vote in 1864. In 1868 and 1872 that State supported Grant.

A Real Boy. A real, trae, hearty, happy boy is about the best thing we know of, unless it is a real girl, and there is not much to choose between them. A real boy may be asin- cere lover of the Lord Jesus Christ, even if he cannot lead the prayer meeting, or be a church officer, or a preacher, but he can be a godly boy iu a boy’s way and place. He is apt to be noisy aud full of fun, and there is nothing wrong about that. He ought not to be too solemn or too quiet for a boy. He need not cease to be a boy because he is a Christian. He ought to run, jump, play, climb. and shout like a real boy. But io it all he ought to show the spirit of Christ. He ouglit to be free from vulgarity and pro- fauity. No real true boy chews or uses tubacco in any form, and he has a horror of intoxicating driuks. The only way he treats tobacco is like the boy who was jeered aud laughed at by some old ones because he could not chew. His reply was, I can do more than that; I can eschew it.” And so he did all his life. A real boy is also peaceable, gentle, merciful, generous. He takes the part of small boys against large boys. He discourages fighting. He refuses to be a party in mis- chief and deceit. Above all things he is never afraid to show his true colora. He need not always be interrupting, but he onght not to be ashamed to say that he refuses to do any- thing because it is wrong aud wicked, or because he fears God, or is a Christian. A real boy never takes part in the ridi- cule of sacred things, but meets the ridi- cale of others with a bold statement that for all things of God he feels the deepest reverence. And areal boy is pot asham- ed to say “father” or “mother will not like it if I do so aud so.” Jt is only your sham milk-and-water boys that are afraid to do tight. Every one respects the real boy, and every one despises the sham, too-big-for-his-parents, smoking, tobacco- luving coward, who is afraid to do right for fear of a little ridicule-—The Lookout. ee The City of Refuge. Just after the close of the war an ex- cellent widow was left with four girls and nothing to support them, near Wood - ruff, in Spartanburg county, 8. C. The husband and father fell in the war up- holding the cause of his people with gal- lantry. She had nothing to live upon or rear these children as she desired, and as they would have been trained if the ca- lamities of war had nut come upon the desolated household. She shrank from putting her precious girls in the field with a gang of negro laberers, and to subject them tp sach demoralizing influ- encea as at that day characterized the lately emancipated slaves. So, she went to Bivingsville in another part of that county and put her children in the facto- ry. They served diligently and honestly. With their carvings and what she made herself a tract of land was bonght and a pew home established. One by one the girls were edncated at a college and came out cultivated young wowen. They were attractive and intellectual aud two pf them were happily married to gradaates of Wofford, aud are vow honored, reapect- ed and loved by a large circle of friends and acquaintances. ‘Honor aud fame from no condition rise,” but are gaived by fidelity to daty. Bivingsville was the avd William Allen in 1875. Still we atick te our faith in universal suffrage. In 1870 she gave her vote to Garfield. It is, something to make a decided break iv that vote two years in succession. The probability that the State will give its vote to the Democratic candidate next year is decidedly encouraging. But it will not do to build caleplations apoo that result as though it were settled. A great deal depends upon what the Demo- erats of that State do with the victory they have just won. It would be the ea- siest thing im the world to fool it away, aud in the matter of fools Ohio never plays a second fiddle.

Coleridge relates # story te this effect : came to a people dwelling in peaceful hats, who knew not of war nor conquest, Gold being offered him he refused it, say- ing that his sole object was to learn the manners and customs of the inhabitants. “Stay with us,” said the chief, “as as it pleaseth thee.” chief, two of his subjects bronght a case vefore him for judgment. The dispute was this: The one had bonght a piece nf groand which after the purchase was found to contain a treasure, for which he felt himself bound to pay. The other refused to receive anything, stating that he had sold the ground with what it might be found te eoutainy- ed. Said the chief looking at the ene: “You have a son,” and to the other, “you have a daughter ; let them be married and the treasure given them as a dowry.” Alexander was astonished. “And what,” said the chief, “wonld have been the decision in your country?” “We would have dismissed the purties aud seized the treasure for the king’s use.” “And does the sun shine in your coun- try 1” suid the chief; does the rain fall there, are there any cattle there which feed npon the herbs aud green grass 1” “Certainly,” said Alexander. “Ah!” said the chief, ‘it is forthe sake of those innocent cattle that the Great Being permits the sun xhine, the rain to Daring the interview with the Afrieam . fall and the grass to giow iu your coun. | try,” Cape The Real Houiec. The real home ia in the country and it is something wo ethan a dwelling; the field and trees around it are part of it, and the views from it of the landscape, and of distant mountains, perhaps, make it unlike any other place iu the world. The country home with its fixity of sur- roundinugs has usaally some measure of petmancnee, aud the social life formed there is under the favorable conditions of old family associations. Some hare the happy condition of living in the home of their fathers, and are snrrounded with objcets of precious memory, daily wemen toes of parcutal affection and instruction. The home which it makes is the best thing of farm life. There is a necessity of permanence, and as there is no sudden or great accamulation of wealth, or large increase, the family is free from that dis- content which usually comes with sudden or great acquisition. It is one of the com- peusations of their condition that the far- mer’s family isin that “fixity of surround- ings” which fayors their highest culture. —Country Gentleman. oe The “Singing Beach,” at Manchester, Mass., is exciting considerable attention among scientific men, They have taken sands from the beach aud subjected them to microscopical examination, and have found that the phenomeuon which gives rise to the name of the beach, is coufived to tliat portion of the sand lying between the water line aud loose sand above the reach of vrdiuary high tides. ‘The sound- ing sand is near the surface; at the depth of one or two feet it ceases, it is thought because of moisture. The sound is pro- duced hy pressure, and may be likened te a subdued crushing, is of low intensity and pitch, not metallic nor crackling.

There are singing sands on one of the Hawaiian Islands, where the sound re- sembles distant thander, and Hugh Mil- ler cites similar instances at Gebel Na- kons, in Arabia Petrea, and Reg Rawan, near Cabul, where the sand gives a sort of humming poise.

SS THU&SDAY, OCTOBER, 25, Tee. ~ 3 -_ ater Abis caption the Fayetteville Observer briefly reviews the differences between ahe editors in North Carolina on the warions subjects which are likely to enter into the next canvass, and quotes a @ speech of Dr. Benj. Franklin on the adoption of the Federal Constitution by way of showing us the wisdom of pru- (dowce, It isa powerful appeal, and as pdvaple and dispassiouate as it is power- ful. tis worthy the attention of every democratic editeur in the State who desires to promote democratic success. Fer one we subscribe to Dr. Frankliu’s seutiments and temper so fur as applica- ble tw the present case. = Heury W. Grady, of Ga., like the late Jamented Farjsh Furman, has been devo- ting his time and talents to efforts, for the institution of new and better methods of farming in the South, Some while back he wrote to seme ove iu every eouuty ja his State, asking for the names of the peu most successful farmers in the couu- ey. He then addressed a letter tv each ane those farmers, and receiged iv all, J0Q0 answers. The questions he pro- unded had reference to their business methods; and he brought out this very very remarkable fact, that all those 1000 anccessfi] farmers raised their own ineat apd bread and their own proveuder and grain for stuck, Not a cent of their cotton money wentto buy supplies; on the eontrary, many of them had corn, wheat pad bacon to sell, year in and year out. Hence he concludes t)jat suecessfal fai m- ing in the South depends op each farmer raising bjs owy supplies ; and that with- out this Jgrmers are wasting their atrepgth and their farms, aud are doomed fo a failure in the end. The Novth @arolina editors who re- cently visited Boston ‘are enthusiastic ver the handsome reception giyen them in that city, and the gratyfying exhibit the State makes in the great Exposition thexe. The report made by the States- ville Landmark, the Fayetteyille Observer the Greensboro Patriot, and the Asheville Vitizen, is very pleasant reading. We quote from the Observer the following : “And the third and last of the very enjoyable events of thia best of all the Mays in Boston, was the opportunity afforded the writer just before taking the O90 train that night for New York of earing GOVEKNOB BUTLER speak at Fanenil Hall. It is impos- aible to describe the queer resultant of the cross between his very re- poarkably ugly visage and the air which pervades the whole man of the con- Sciousuess of yreat power of brain and will and what they call, for the waut of A better name, magnetism. Every shake pf his head was the signal for rapturous Applause, and the manner jn w hich he aaid “the repybliean pasty says Butler ymoust go; but. the pete say Butler shal) stay” was something indes¢ribably funny Aud impressive. Boston isa city all by itself. It is manifestly a metropolis—the metropolis New England. —yet iv comparison with ew York it isatrifle provineial. But jthas acharacter all its own. It is the foost interestog city in Awerica — in jteelfas it stands to-day, and in its tra- Alitions and assvciations. Its very streets jn their crookedness, if not benefactions, Are beautifiers; and its heart warius to & Nerth Caroljnian. Go to Boston, mod- est reader, and you will know that your State is greater and feel that you your- eclf are more important than you ever knew before.” TO - e The Statesville Landmark gives a full fccount of the treuble in that town on (Cireus dgy,and confirms most of the FeRAH giyeniin our last—the killing of Redman by g ©; the jailing of the Seeassin, and aybeequeptiy. in the dead hours of night, the forcible eytrange pf the prison by a mob and the hanging of the negro. This last act was the occus- pon of high excitement iu the town for a May or two, and it was feared the negroes would precipitate open strife between the whites and blacks. Byt better copn- sels prevailed and the negroes held a public meeting, attended by the Mayor And many white citizens, to talk over the Sabject. The resulations of the colored people denounced the hanging as a mur- der, and called on the officers of the law and thé good people gf the county to ferret out the offeuders aud bring them 0 justice.

Vance, of North Carolina, Was jntroduced to the vast audience from the second fluor veranda of the main fair buildiug. His address was 4 master- piece of thoughtful suggestions to farm- ers, touching in the maiu the legislation und want of legislation of the day so destructive of the agricultural prosperity of the country. His criticisms upon wovopolies, such as fostered mavufactur- ing corporations, national banks, holders of United States bonds and mouopolizers of capital and lauds were juterestiug and severe, but tempered with covservative remarks, ‘The Jeadiug idea of his speech wae that farmers should have au organi- zation for matual self protection. With great emphasis, he said to the farmers: “Your information is too circumscribed. Do you hear that?” The remark he ap- plied to the farmers of the whole country, Farmers sheujd have all the information the merchants and speculators have cou- cerning the cotton or other produce they sell. Asa class they are remiss in many things, and particularly iu allowing othe: clusses of people to takeevery advan- tage of themselves, The disposition of their products was of more moment to farmers than the produetion of them. With furcible and descriptive language the eloquent speaker portrayed the manipulations of chartered corporations and railroad and other monopolies, all of Whose operations were to the detriment of the agricultural prosperity of the country. In all the Jegishation he had seen iu his experieuce of many years he had uot seen a representative of the farm ers ay the working classes in the lobby of pither Jouse of the natio: al legislature. Other classes were there always, aud, with every ingenuity winivg and dining and buttovholing, were asking the priv- ilege of putting the people’s money inte their own private packets. The speech of Senator Vanee, who is noted for his Wit, Was interspersed throughout with a rich vein of humor and sidesplitting anecdotes, which were inummensely enjoy ed. He closed with appropriate allusions tu the impertauee of agricattaral devel- opment, saying that all hope of the peliti- cal purity of the country iuds its restipy place around the peaceful tiresides of the country home. Senater Vance spoke just one hour to a delighted audience. —— <4 As we recede from the era of recon- struetion, the instrameuts used for its accomplishment pass away.

Ip the Offett building, a re- | porter for the Commonwealth found, yes- terday, all the indications of a bee hive, minus the stiugs—the sweetness was there, as reflected from the smiling happy | faces of about twenty-five of our Hatri- | son burg ladics who were evgaged in par- | ing aud slicing the apples. Every em- | ployee of the establishment was busy. | This industry gives employment tonbout | forty of our citizens, und will continue until the middle of December, possibly longer, Nearly 2,000 bushels of apples have already been delivered, and Messrs. Hatch & Curtis have contracted fur about 10,000 bushels more. The apples are tirst taken regardless of condition or size, par- od, sijced aud cored, which is the werk of a few secouds,as it is dove by madbinery, theo passed to hands who remove all paftieles of peelings, specks, bruised or rotten places, Lbe;wachinery, or rather the imple-{ ma@yta, used in the factory are few and simple, consisting of furnaces, traya, sieves, evaporators, bleacher aud pearers. | The furnaces, two iv number, which are nothing more than large, odd shaped | stoves encased in galvanic iron cylinders, | are seated on the first floor and are heat- ed by coal. The hot air iv the cylinders, mentioned above, is carried throagh large tin pipes to the evaporators on the sec oud door. The evaporators are about eight feet high, ten by four at the base, and six by four at the top, glass doors, and lined throaghout with asbestos. Ip these the fruit is placed ou wire sieves, where iv about four bours it is thoreugh- ly dried and ready for shipment. The preparation of the fruit for the evapora- tor is all wade on the first floor. The pearers, which peal, core aud slice, are arranged on tables, one baud operating each’ machine. For this work females! are preferted, and for which five cents per bushel is paid. Av expert hand can peel from twelve to fifteen bushels per day, It is uext placed iv the bleacher in whivh process sulphur is largely used.

They are a vegetable tonic purgative, abso- lately harmless under all circumstances, They never injure the weakest female or the young- est child. One box is a medicine chest svffic- ing for a whole family. Suppose you have diarrhea; nature is making a great effort to; get rid of some irritating matter in the slom- ach or bowela.e A dose of Brandreth’s Piils removes the matter and the disease is cured. In costiveness one good dose of Brandreth’s Pilla, fullowed by one pill every night fora week ortwo, make the human machinery run as regular us clock work. In bad colds, where the pores of the akin are closed and the insen- sible perspiration thrownapon the blood, pois- oning the fountains of life and filling the nose, the throat and the lnngs with choking macus; seven Brandreth’s Pills taken at night op an empty stomich, will restore the perspiration, break up the cold and purge away all the wa- tery secretions that should have passed off by the skin. Diphtheria, a family dixease and a most dangerous one. is almost immediately cured by one or two doses of Brandreth’s Pills, aided by a gargleof lime water. Khumatism, which eomes from tog mach acidity or too much alka.inity of the system, requires noth- ing but Brandreth’s Pills and a few good sweats to make a perfect cure. It is marvelous how they purify the blood. After two doses, the effect is seen in brightness of the eyes and clearness of the skin. All pim- ples and eruptions vanish like mogic ander | the influence of this purifying purgative. We | cannot stop the march of time with any medi- |cine: but Brandreth’s Pills will remove the ‘excessive lime from the system and paevent | grey hair. They improve the sight and tone | up the human body, ao that the old man’s eyes will be undimmed and his natural force una- bated even afler seventy years. Best in the Werld. Brandreth’s Pills have stood the teat of forty- five years of use by the Amertcan peuple. They are entirely Vegetable. They are absolutely univerval, for there is no disease they will not cure, iftakenintime. They are safe for infants and adulta. They aim to ac- complish three things: first, to purify the blood; second, to cleanse and regulate the stomach and bowels; third, to stimulate the kidneys and liver and purge away the ashes of the sys tem and diseased matters of the body. By pur- ging wi.h these Pills constantly, a new body can be built up from fresh, healthy food in a few months. In this way, gout aud rheuma- tism, ulcers and fever sures can be eradicated lin a few weeks, The worst cases of dyspepsia and costiveness can be cured by taking one or two pills eyery night for a month. In casesof twenty years’ standing, gentlemen have been cured by taking one pill a night for a year. Brandreth’s Pills give tothe human body, no matter how worn or decayed, the recuperative powers of youth, In their action, they imitate the rapid changes of the yonthful body. We all wirh to die of od age. A hundred years is Black Walnut. Black walnut can be grown from the nut, producing a butt fourteen inches in diameter in as many years from the seed, as far north as Massa- ehusetts. No tree valuable for its timber ‘in cabinet .uses, unless the black birch be so eonsidered, can at- tain to that aseful growth in that period of time in our vorthern climate. Maples require twenty years before they become god timber trees; beeches and birehes, fifteen years to attain toa diameter large enough to yield nine-inch boards; hickory should have a growth of thirty years; and cherry at least as much. The cultivation of the black wal- nat might be made a source: of profit. If only as au auxiliary to the ordin- ary farm products, It requires no particular care, makes an elegant tree even in its youth, and later, offers an agreeable ehade. The Sewing Ma- chine Journal says : “One hundred acres of land, seeded to walnut tree, if they even reach maturity in fifteen years, would be more reminerative than many of the crops produced by fifteen of incessant toil. Besides, these trees might be planted and would thrive on spots which are really valueless for agri- cultural parposes, and while in the course of grewth would serve as val- uable aids to agriculture as wind breaks and in other respects.” The German Carpand its Intro- duction into the United States. In a paper read before the Ameri- can Association, Mr. C. W. Smiley, of Washington, D. C., said he had some years ago imported ‘from Ger- many thirty or forty pairs of this fish, They were placed in breeding pends in Washington, and have in- creased manyfold, the number spawn- ed this year being 400,000. The carp is naturally a warm water fish, and inthe waters of the Southern States grows with astonishing rapidi- ty, and to great size. ‘They will also do well in the cold water of the North, even in Minnesota. Nearly every State and county in the United States hasa fish commission, and they are all propagating carp. It has also beev taken up as a private speculation, and carp are sold for breeding purposes us bigh as $5 per pair. The carp roots abeut in the mud for aliment, and much resembles poultry in its manner of getting food, the natural limit of life, which can only be reached by purging and purification. In general debility, nervous tremor, and | tnental depression Brandreih’s Pills have a marvelous effect. They have won the confi- dence of millions in all parts of the civilized world, Constitotions shaken by long residence in unwholesome climates, ur by sedentary hab- its, are wonderfully renovated by a course of this extraordinary medicine, which, powerful as is its action on the whole system, is perfect- ly harmless to the tenderestirame. The Pills are composed of rare balsams, without the ad- mixture of a grain of any mineral whatever, or o! any other deleterious substance, They operate directly, powerfully, and beneficially upon the whole maas of blood ; nor can we question the fact when we see indigestion cured, liver com. | plaints arrested, the oppreased lungs brought into healthful play, and every physical func— tion renewed and strengthened by theiragency.

CURE OF NEURALGIA. Taken asa ‘Forlorn Hope,” Brandr eth’s Pills Bffect.a Magica] Cure.—Smal)- Pox Cured.” ne Schenck Ave., East'New York, April 12, 1880. I must cordially give ‘my testimony as to the great valueof Brandreth’s Pills, veritied by eighteen years’ experience in my mother’s (the late Mre, Dr. Geo M Browne) iamily and my own. They were at first taken as a “for— lurn hope,” for the cure of a very severe case uf Neuralgia of several years’ standing, the patient being completely prostrated by disease ind the exceawive use of opium, taken to dead- en the pain (by advice of her physician.) The effects were almost magical; in one month she was able to be up and walk around freely, and the disease has never rejurned, My wother was also cured of an attack of Inflamatosy Khumatiam by the same means, About six years ago I was taken with what appeared to be « bad cold, but in a short time, symtoms of confluent Small Pox were developed, eausing us much alarm, I determjned to try Brand, reth’s Pills as a remedy, and their efficacy. was soon apparent, J was well much sooner than was expected, and without repeiving a single mark or trouble ofany kind. Jt jis my frm belief, jadging from the severity of the case, that bad I gone throngh the. regular poutine prescribed by physicians, I shold have died. I know of many other instances of the vajue of Brandreth’s Pills jn disease and sickness, which I will be happy to give‘to any one who will apply to me. - Mra. E. Sy, Jou. V8BD THIRTY YEARS.

Experiments have shown that female carp spawn at the age of one year in svuthern waters, at two years in colder waters, and in the ex- treme northern waters of the United States utthree years. Other fish, turtles, muskrats, snakes, and even birds, eat young carp. A bird shot in Washington recently had in its sto- mach the heads of seventy-nine young carp. The United States Fish Com- missioner recently sent out requests for information about carp experi- meuted with in this country ; most of the replics placing the carp on an equality with troat, bass, and shad asa food fish, while afew classed them with pike, and a ‘very few said they had a muddy taste. The carp is the best pond fish yet known, and in a very small pond will thrive well, so that families may easily have their own fish garen if they have enough water to make a permanent pond. The carp is avery bardy fish for shipment, requiring little water to keep alivein. The United States Fish Commissioner is giving away carp, sending them by express to any poot, the receiver paying ex express clrarges, The fish will thrive on table refuse and almost anything edible. Carp can be kept in water ina tub in the cellar, the water re. quiring to be kept fresh. Care shou!d be taken tu keep poisunous substauces out of carp ponds, and too much food sheuld not be thrown in. In cooking carp, thorough cleansing is needed ; and frying should be done in hot pans and hot grease. As to the economies of this sub- ject, Mr. Smiley, said that fish cul- ture was more and more becoming a part of the farmer’s ocpupation, and thought that, not very long in the future, mest of the farmers af the country would have little fish ponds in their door yards, both as a method of obtaining food and as an orna- ment to the hamestead.—Seientific American. eg A Bit of Seeret History. Father Hamilton’s Strange Story of how Capt. Wire was Sucrificed by Stanton. The Rev. William John Hamilton, rector of the Cathedral of Mobile, Ala, who was-one of the four priests ad- mitted tothe stockade gt Auderson- ville prison te minister ta dying sol- diers, is in Louisville visiting Bishoy McCloskey. Father Hamilton was one uf Wirz’s witueses during the trial in November, 1865, and he rela- ted a few days ago what he claims is sume of the seeret history of the tria! that has never before been heard,— Father Mamiltou was cour tgutly as Auderseuville” after the caruryal of commenced, aud be dk fends house. Cuas. F Hegyperg. i8:ly ERN BERG, Wirz, whe he says was the most bu- and was cen-tantly assictiag im acts of charity. “It is true,” said Father Hamilton, “that the sufferings among prisoners was terrible, but Wirz, r fellow, was 10 more responsible than I, and so whev he was arraigned in August, 1865, I went on to Washington to do what I could-in his behalf. During the trial Capt. Wirz was suffering from various diseases and wounds, and he was carried to and from the court room by four marines. A med- ical commission had been appointed to examine Wirz, and this examina- tion resulted in the conclusion that he could not possibly live longer than 2 months at the furtherest. This in- formation I obtained through a friend und I felt it my duty to impart it to Wirz, so that he might prepare him- self for the next world. This was about two weeks before the end of his trial, He received the information calmly, and then made a request of me which I shall never forget. He said he realized that his conviction and condemnation to death was a fore- gone conclusion, and that he bad no reason to think otherwise. I agreed with him that on account of the feel- ing existing in the North he would certainly be condemned to death. He then requested me to call upon Sec- retary Stanton and say that he was willing to plead guilty to the charges, provided that in fixing the punish- ment the commission would set a day for the hanging far enough in the fu- ture to afford him an opportunity of preparing himself for death, and of his probably dying a natural death before the day fixed, “T called upon Secretary Stanton and laid Wirz’s proposition before him, and made a personal requesc my- self that it be accepted. Mr. Stanton thought favorably of it, and said he thought the rest of the cabinet would have no hesiteucy in uccepting it. He said there was to be a cabinet coun- cil that day at 1 o’clock, and then he would lay the matter before the cabi- net, and would inform me later in the day what action had been taken in the premises. After the meeting I called upon him, when he infurmed me that the other members had refused to lis- ten to any such proposition as that wade by Wirz. I asked him what reasons they guve, and he made the reply—I will never forget it: ‘The people of the North demand the blood of sume one for the cruelties practiced at Andersonville. Wirz, has only two mouths to live. Let’s take this man aud shed his blood, and by doing >v we Spare the life of a better man ;’ and then he mentioned the names of three men—Lee, Davis, and Stephens, uf Georgia. “I saw there was nothing more to be done, and I communicated this fact to Wirz, who began preparing himself to meet his Maker. In less than two weeks he had been convicted, was sentenced November 9th, and hanged the next day. 1 felt that Wirz had siuply suffered for others, and I knew it, but he died without a murmur, save at the ignominy of the means.— [mpressed with this belief, when I met President Johnson, a shert time afterward, I alluded to Wirz’s propo sition to Stanton, and asked him, for my own satisfaction, why the cabinet had not favored it as did Secretary Stanton. Mr. Jolnsou’s reply was staring and surprising to me. ‘What,’ said he, ‘Stanton in favor of the pro- position ?’ and he seemed greatly as- tonished. ‘Why, Stanton was the on- ly member of the cabinet opposed to it. The rest of the cabinet favored it and were bound to accept it, when Staunton threatened to resign if the proposition was entertained for a mo- meut. Mr. Stanton’s services could not well be dispensed with, and rath- er than have him resign we allowed the matter to drop,’ ” “Did your interest in Wirz’s case end here?” was asked of Father Ham- ilton, “Not my interest, but my inquiries did. ‘The times were troublous, and the terrors of Andersonville were too odious at the North to render prudent or possible any righting of the wrong, I have never said anything of this, except confidentially to one or two friends, but I will say now that Wirz was sacrificed, and that he died to: save one of the leaders of the Confed- eracy.” The Hon. Jas, Speed, Attorney Gen- eral at the time of Wirz’s trial, says he never heard of the proposition de- scribed by Hamilton, He says, how- ever, there were several cabinet meet- ings at this period at which he was not present, He does not believe the story. ———_~+es—___ News and Obgerver :—From Washington City there comes 4 dispatch to the effect that the Republicans there are disposed to accept the result of the Ohio election as ‘a timely warning.” Under the cir- cumstances they can do no better, and we are delighted to hear that they are be- having ina philosophical manner.

October 241, 1882, yo) XV THIRD SERIES A Struggle with a Fish. ADVENTURE OF A SKOWHEGAN ATHLETE AT THE SEASHORE. The Wager He Made with an- Old Fisher- man—A Fish that wouldn't be Lifted. A Deer Island (Me.) letter tothe New York Sun tells this hamorous story of a young athlete’s adventare with an elec- trie fish : *“*You look like a likely hefter,” said an old fisherman in oil skins, who was unloading a doryful of mackerel, to a lusty young man in koiekerbockers and a white flaunel shirt. “Yes,” replied the young man, “I’m called pretty strong iv the Skowhegan Athletie club.” “Did you ever lift mach fish?” asked the old fellow throwing a huge petful of tinkers on the dock and looking his com- panion over with a critical eye. “I never saw the fish I couldn’t lift.” The fisherman thrust his hand iuto his poeket, from which after a violent strag— gle and mach invective, he hauled outa very flat, light leather pocketbook that was closed with a strap aud a piece of rope yarn. He took out a elean ten-dol- lar bill and said; “I’m going on eighty- one year old next muster day, bat I'l bet ten dollars even you can’t lift a fish that I can.” ‘“‘Where’s your fish 7” asked Skowhe- gan. “Well, I'll tell you. Here’s a fish,” and he poked among the mackerel, and pointed to a large, solid, skate-like ‘fish in the bottom of the dory. “Let’s see; it’s about five foot up to the dock. I'll bet you the ten dollars you ean’t toss the fish up there.” “I don’t wan’t to take your money,” replied the young man, magnanimosly, as a number of spectators drew arvund, “but if you’ve got half a dozen of the fish string ’em all together and give me some- thing worth doing. I’ve lifted 500 poauds vefore break fast.” Oh, yes, I’ve heard on you,” said the old man, somewhat warmly. ‘You’re the man that ate a piece of rabber hose for breakfast and didn’t find out it wasn’t sausage till somebody told you. See that thumb nail?” he asked holding up acuri- ous-looking stub with a horny substance upon it. ‘Well, I sarved ’prentice once to a boxmaker, and used to put in all the screws with that nail and pull 'em out when they broke out with my teeth. You know me, and J’Jl stick to it that you can’t heave the fish up to the dock, an@ there’s the money.” The Skowhegan athlete thus called upon deposited $10 with the owner of the mackerel canning shop, who bad joined the party, and went down the ladder into the boat while the old fisherman climbed up on the dock te watch the feat. “Stand back there!” shouted the fish tosser, rolling up his sleeve, “This fish might hit you, old man, and kuock some of the blow out of you.” ‘“Heave away,” said the man in oil- skins, tipping a wink at the crowd in general. The young man now stepped into the dory and poked away the tinkers (small mackerel) that were sliding about, Standing on the edge of the boat he stooped down, grasped the skate-like tish, and lifted, raising it aboat a foot. Then, uttering a yell, he staggered a moment and fell with a resounding splash into the water, nearly capsizing the boat in accomplishing the feat, which was re- ceived with shouts of taughter from the dock, the old fisherman fairly dancing a hornpipe on the rail. ‘What's the matter with yoa?” he shouted, as the unfertanate athlete scram- bled into the dory agaiv, swearing like a pirate. “Trying to upset the boat, are you?” “Who struck me?” Some one ave gme a knock on the head just as I was lift- ing’ “Nonsense,” said some one in crowd. “You wasn’t touched.” ‘I'll take my oath I felt something hit me. If thisisa skin game I want to know it.” Braciog himself firmly in the boat he again grasped the fish in both hands and raised it three feet, and then fish, athlete and all went over backward amoug the tinkers. Man, fish, oars and balers were mixed up fora moment. At last the Skowhegan lifter made a break for the dock, and once upon it sank down on a pile of boards. He was as white as a sheet and covered with scales from head to foot. “Send for the apothecary,” he gasped, as the men crowded round. “‘Why, what’s the matter with you?” “ve had a stroke,” whispered the vic- tim. The minate I stooped to lift I felt ita a-runnio’ all over me. It’s in oar family, but I’ve got it bad,” and here he rubbed his arms and legs. “It knocked me clean off my feet,” he added, “and my limbs feit like sticks. Send—;” but here a roar of langhter broke from the men, and one of them, seiziug him by the arm and jerked him to his feet. “You're all right, my lad; enly next time don't go fooling around old Amos. He’s a hard nut.” ‘*Here’s your money senvy,” said the old man, holding out the bill, you've earned it.” the “What do I mean?” he continued. “Why, jest this: You havn't had a shock SALISBURY, N. C., NOVEMBER 1, 1688. of paralysis. You tried tew heft one of these torpeders. They'll knock a horse if you take ’em right.” The athlete looked vacantly ahead, twok back his money and left amid the renewed laughter of the crowd. “He'll have a yarn to tell the Skowhe- gaiPfolks,” said the perpetrator of the joke, “bat I do hate to hear a man blow and thought I'd take him down. Injared? No, sir-ee. He'll feel stiff for an hour or so, bat it won’t harm him. I’ve been struck by ’em a handred times and it’s no fun I can tell you. It’s just like being strack by a mild stroke of lightuing. I don’t generally touch 'em, but a map gave me a dollar to fetch one in, sol kept it in the boat. They'll shock you right through the net. When I was haaling in the tinker seine this morning, I kuew I had a shockfish from the jerking of my arms. The shocks come right up the wet cording, so that sometimes you cau’t hang ov avshow, I’ve seen a mav who struck | all the great ranges of mountains aad one with an iron harpoon, thinking it a skate, knocked down so quick he never knew what hit him.” ——_-—_ — Governor Jarvis at Louisville.

[Ap- plause.) But ladies and gentlemen, it only remains now for me to thank you for your attention; it only remains for me te say that North Carolina is in sympathy with this exposition, and in sympathy with the great industries that the South is rapidly moving for- ward within the path of prosperity. While we feel that we have many advantages as a manufucturing people, and while we may think that manu- factures will prosper in the South, there is one thing I would not have the Southern people forget, and that is that by nature the South is pecu- liarly an agricultural section, aud that it becomes us, while we encourage the great manufacturing interests, not to neglect the great agricultural interests of the South. [Applause.] Upon the agricultural interest chiefly depends the prosperity of the South. It is the Agriculturist that supplies the teem- ing millions of the earth, and upon agriculture of the South every section of the country is more or less depend- ent. The manifold looms and facto- ries and spindles of New England, the great factories of the Eust, are us- ing the material that comes from the South ; they are dependent upon vur prosperity, andl I now have seen with mine eyes and witnessed with mine ears that you are in sym a’y with the increasing prusperity of the South, the ———— the increasing lines of railways, and the business ramifications that con- nect and make one the various sec- tions of the country. It is for the good of eur country that no one sec- tion of it is entirely independent of the other, but that we are matually dependent upon each other and make | hel ps and supports to each other. | With such a country and people, and such a union of interests and senti- ments, who can tell its future? Its future may be boundless, its people | happy, if we will only regard the great lessons that vature has taught us. My friends, once the people of this country neglected these great les- sons. When we come to look ata dividing line to yetcndpee” ter coun- try, we can find none. e find no great mountain cutting the country from east to west. No great river di- vides it from the east to the west, but rivers flow and run north and south. God, in his wisdom, intended that this country should be one.

The full returns from the Ohio election show that Hoadly, Democrat, not only has a majority of 12,529 over Foraker, Ripebiienn, but he has a majority of 1,383 over his Republi- can, Greenback and Prohibition op- ponents combined, and this despite the fact that the Republican vote shows an increase of 60,000 over that of last fall. The total vote this year is 721,464, nearly 3,503 less than was cast at the presidential election in 1880. At that election Garfield’s majority over Hancock was 34,227, the late election thus showing a dif- ference in favor of the Democracy of 46,956.

Civil Rights. An Indignation Meeting—An “ Insult to Our Race.” A Chicago telegram dated Oct. 25, says, a well attended meeting of col- ored citizens was held last night for the purpose of protesting against the recent decision of the Supreme Court on the civil rights bill. Rev. W. Polk, pastor of the church in which the meeting was held, said in the course of his remarks: “This decision is an insult te our race. I have al- ways been a good Republican but now I believe we should give our allegi- ance to that party which will give us our rights even if it runs devils tickets or Ben Butler. : $b a Surprised by Wealth. An Irishman named Peter McEn- erney died in Birmingham, Counn., a short time ago. He had come over from Ireland but a few years before. He left a family of seven children, the oldest of whom is 21. He kepta small grocery store, keep ‘up some show of respectability, yet living ap- parently on almost nothing at all. At his death he left no will, and the widow and orphans expected to fare but poorly. As the administrator went to work, however, he revealed new wonders at every siep. First a large ameunt of real estate belonging to McEuerney, and amounting to about $100,000 in value, was discov- ed. Hardly was the surprise at this over when word came from Fish & Hatch, in New York, that they held $150,000 in bounds fur McEuerney. How the man ever collected so great an amount of property is a mystery to his family as much as to everybody else. —_—_ ED SD Oe GRAFTED SPANISH CHESTNUTS.— At the recent fair in Cecil county, Maryland, some fine Spanish chest- nuts were exhibited by Mr. George Balderston, of Colora, who grafted some of eur native trees with this va- riety a few years ago, and this fall raised a few quarts of them. They ripen some weeks in advance of our native chestnuts aud sell in our cities fur twenty-five cents per quart, which is about five times the ordéaary price of our native fruit when it ripens a few weeks later. Farmers and others so situated as to be able to give their attention to raising chestnuts would do well to plant this variety, or pro- bably what is better graft, their native trees with cuttings from the Spanish chestuut.— Cecil Davip Davis AHEAD.—The Chi- cago News says, the well-known “drop game,” recently tried with success on a Brooklyn bank depositor, develop- ed an anecdote that is tuld Judge Da- vid Davis. The Judge was making a deposit at a Washington bank, and stood counting a large pile of money at a desk. A well-dressed young ian stepped up and with a bow and a smile, said: “Judge, you have drop- peda bill.” Sure enough, there lay a clean, crisp, genuine $2 vill at the deposior’s feet. “Thank you,” bland- ly answered the Judge, placing his ponderous right fio. over the bill an the floor, and calmly resumed his counting.

It is about as mono- tonous as the Jersey fluts. I don’t see how on earth it is that Duteh artists, old and new, have succeeded iu expressing so mach beanty and sentiment in their pictures of these level lands, which pos- sess intriusically so little of sentiment or beauty. Most of oar way lay through the polders—land which was once the bottom of the sea. No fences anywhere. Along the railroad, on the land side, was a broad deep diteh, level full of water, and at right angles with this other ditches at intervals of a few rods flowed level fall of water and disappeared in the grass far inland. On the ocean side of the train a huge embankment rose, and sails were visible above it, and foamy waves leaped up here and there aud peeped over jeal- ously at the fertile acres and the broad backed briudle cows grazing. On the embankment windwills, with tremendous wings like the sails of a merchantwan, worked their pumps in sluggish confi- deuce of victory. Every fifty rods above the ditches wooden gates rose to cover small bridges set there for convenience— about the only object, except the cows to break the vision. Attempts are being made to grow trees, and at rather distant intervals a little house is set, and the oc- cupaut has carted on enough dry vegeta- ble mold to make himself a garden. All that Uhave ever heard about the neatness of these Dutch people seems justified. He who rises early will sce the inhabitants swarming like bees, arm- ed with the implements of renovation. Men are on their knees ou the sidewalks; women with scrubbing brushes cling to the windows with violent gestures; the knockers shive like gold. At the church door lies a mat of sewed rags, and by the side of the mat stands a man, his brow furrowed with anxiety, and when I pass without seeing it he clatters at me a word or two of gutteral expostulation, and poiuting to the mat turns me back to wipe my feet on it. There is not a speck of mud in the streets but there is a little dust, and the care-worn guardian knows that dust is a subtle enemy that loves to fly up aud roost on the stained-glass oriels and the carven pulpit. Thave not seen one of the wonderfal dairies which are the pride of Holland, but am told of one by an acquaintance. “She took me to sec the dairy,” says he. “There were twenty cows, cach in a pret- ty little room by herself. There were no stalls and vo mangers. The rooms were finished in the native woods of the Rhine valley, and much of it was polished. Each cow’s tail was fastened up to a ring in the wall, and a brook of fresh water ran through every room. The floor was without a speck, and musquito bars und neat chintz curtains hung at the windows. There was a straw mat at each dvor on which every visitor was expected to wipe his feet if they were clean; if they were sviled, he was cxpected tu go outside and make himself presentable before ap- proaching the cows.” ae New SIAMESE SworRD OF STATE. —The St. James Gazette says, a mew sword of state, meant to replace the old weapon handed down from remote ages as the symbol ofauthority in Si- am, has just been completed for the King by Mr. J.

The North Carolina Agricultural Asso- ciation, it appears, is staggering under the burden of an old debt of about $20,- 000, and made an assigument of the pro- ceeds of the recent State Fair after the payment of current expenses, for the beu- efit of parties holding judgments against n. The proceeds from Fairs seems to be alone relied on for reduciug the debt, vhich thas far has beeu a slow pracess. We have nothing to say against the management for we know nothing. It is rather unfortunate for the future success of the annual Fairs that this embar- rassed fivaucial condition of the As- sociation should have become public ; for there is nothing like success for success; and vice versa. If it shall seem that the an- nual drumming for the fair is in fact only a drumming fur mouey to pay a debt, it will speedily become a non-paying institation, and the beat thing far creditors would be to wind it up. ee EE ae — Witt Close Ur.--The merchauts of Coneord will close their stores on the 10th of Noveinber, uutil 44 o'clock in the af- ternoon, iv order to afford all an oppor- tunity to attend the celebration of the 400th anniversary of Martiu Luther, to take place in that town on that day. And just here we wish to say that the proposed celebration is very high above any ordinary event, and appeals to wen and women who appreciate the never dy- ing labors of Martiu Luther in the cause of free thought and a true Christianity, to attend and participate in the exercises. The man who had the wisdom the courage, the ability and the fortitude to defy, for the truth’s suke, all the powers of the Romish priesthood of his day, did a work for mankind beyond compatation, the fruits of which seem destined tu bless the world to the end of time. ee Chas.

We quote from the Charleston paper : “A staff reporter for the News and | Courier saw the machine tested in a cot- tun field on Mr. Mason’s place at Sumter a few days ago, aud although the cotton was very wetfrom the loug spell of wet weather and had beev open ready tor picking fully six weeks, the machine which was operated by ove horse and ove nan harvested cotton at the rate of over 200 pounds an hour, which would be at the rate of 2,000 pounds a working day of tev hours. Mr. Mason is by no means satisfied with the present capacity of the machine aud changes aie now being made which it is believed will increase its capacity to about 4,000 poands of seed cotton a day, or three bales ef lint.” __ Oe Monstes Bass Horn.—Jobu W.

Some of~ the i wise or expedient that nothing should be done, remitting the whole subject to the next session—or even to a succeeding . when the Democrats have @ succeeding Cereak Chaat Democrats hope to havea majority of before shipping them West, Mr. Franck- -the..Senate.and the President as well. These deem it best-to take ne immediate action, becanse whatever action may be taken will haye the effect of. disap- pointing a considerable number of our party. : They say the party is divided on the subject of abolishing the internal revenue taxes and also op the question of the tariff, It is better, say they, to. pool our issues until the President is elected and then the party having control of both branches of Covgress and of the executive can proceed to carry into effect its pur~ pose. We have said that such are the views of some of the leaders. But that view is not confined: to mere politicians. Gentlemen of discernment and intelli- gence, who are thoughtful but who draw a wide mark between themselves aud mere politicians, sympathize very mach For instance, we find in the Newbern Journal the fol- lowing : : “Itis entirely out of the question for the Demoerats to gv into the next Presi- dential canvass with a united front if the tariff is to be the main issue. There are thousands of good Democrats in this see- tion who do not want the tariff question agitated by the next Congress.” Aud the Journal is undoubtedly cor- rect. There isvo townin the United States where good sterling Democrats cannot be found who agree entirely with the idea presented by the Journal. They do not want the tariff agitated this wiu- ter or next winter either. The tariff is, as Hancock said, a local matter. The Journnl continues: “While itis true that the people have beeu carrying a heavy burden of taxa- tion under the protective tariff without knowing it, itis equally true that hun- dreds of rice farmers are benefitted by that sime protective tariff and yet they are bot aware of it. If we were to ask every farmer who brings rice to. this market how mach he is benefited by the taviffon imported rice we hardly think one oul of a dozen could tell us correctly, aud if they knew the extent of the pro- tection we believe they would see the Democratic, Republican or any other party at the d—I before they would vate to change it, For this immediate section we do not think a reductien of the tariff would be beneticial at present.” And in every section there are thoa- | sands of Democrats who think just as the Journal does. We have been advertent to this foralong time. We recognize the difficulties in the way both of the politicians and of those Lemocrats who are bot “politicians,” but whose business iuterests are more or less affected by the present dutics. And yet we are strongly for action— for immediate, positive, decided action — action both in regard to the internal revenue taxesaud iv regard to tariff taxes. So far as party success is concerned it will be subserved by action rather than by inaction. Bat we should look at something beyond mere party advantage. There is a great abuse in the land, The people are being taxed directly one han- dred and fifty millions per annum more than there is any necessity for; and indirectly at least double that sum. ‘The Democrats have been given power by an overWhelming majority with a letter of instructions from the people to abate these taxes. The representatives of the people must act. They must cut down the sarplas. The responsibility of adupt- ing any particular line of reduction must the Democratic members them- selves. They cannot share that respon - sildoiry with others. The performance of the duty is) committed to them—and the people expect it to be petformed wisely and for the Lbenetit and advantage of the country. We shall hope that our Democratic members of Congress will stand squarely on our State platform; First, au imme- diate repeal of the internal revenue syss tem, aud secondly, a reduction of tariff duties, but so arranging the details as ta secure incidental protection. The present high taxation ought not ta see the open- ing gf next spring. It should be buried away beneath the snows of this winter. If not, then we will have first the early | retirement of the natioual bank currency, |a contraction of the currency to the amount of $300,000,000, and a period of six years, between 1835 and (891, during which no legitimate method will exist of getting any surplus out of the Treasury. Agitin, after 1865, will the question be of easier svlation than to-day ? Will) not the same divergent interests still exist, and will vot the fear of ruin by low taxation be equally as great asnow? Are we to raise surplus to pile it away? Be- sides, if the Demverats da nat abate these taxes what guarantee have we that the people will not turn from them at the next election and elect men who will abate them #—News and Obdseraer. ————_~-—>-—— ATLANTA, Oct. 27.—Iu the Banks coun- ty kuklux cases the eight prisoners were found guilty on every indictment.

KENDALL & Co., Dear Sirs:—I purchased at Louisville, Ky., a very fine bred colt, and in sbip- ing he got his hock badly hurt on the outside of the oint which caused it to swell three or four times the natural size, which made him very lame. I tried a great many liniments which failed to benefit the injured part. At last when disgusced, and ready to give up the coltasruined, I happened to see yourad- vertisement of ‘‘Kendall’s Blister and Spavin Cure,” and thought I would give ita trial, I first applied the “Blister” to the hock which by this time had calloused, and to my surprise found it worked like a charm. In twenty-four hours the part that was hard became Soft and the lameness began to leave. I then got some of “Kendall's Spavin Cure” and ap- plied it according to directions, which has madea rfect cure, and the colt is now as sound as any orse alive. I merely write this letter to you, as [ think it a duty lowe to you, and also for the good of the pubic at large. The foregoi Statement I will affidavit to, and can also have the same verified by the best horse- men in our city who saw the eolt before and after treatment. Very Respectfully, 12 Chapel St. JOHN R.

A freight train had just passed through the tuunel and was side tracked to allow a passenger train to pass. Four ot the crew of the freight train walked to the vicinity of the magaziue, and were eugaged in conversation with the watch- man when the peuple living in the vicinity were startled by a terviflic con- cussion. Houses for 15° miles around were shaken to their foundations, and windows tor a distance of 7 miles were shattered. ‘The horror stricken people has been the tunne! a magazive ran from their houses and it was found that dynamite had exploded. — Every thing near by gave evidence of the ter- rible force of the explosion. ‘Trees were uprooted, huge recks torn asunder and telegraph poles for a half mile were pros- trated. Nothing remained of the maga- zive, and the men who stood near it just before the explosion were missing. Por- tions of the bodies, ineluding legs, arms, hands and heads have been picked up half a mile: distant, but 80 disfigured as to be unrecognizable. ‘The uames of ouly three of the victims are known, George Reynolds, engineer, Tise, a brakesman and Hammoud a switehman. The cause of the explosion is envelop- ed in mystery, and asthe five men who might have thrown some light on the accident are dead, it is probable that the cause will never be knowv. Not far from the scene a gan was found, and it is sup- posed that one of the victims discharged | it, the concussion causing the dynanite | tu explode. An iuqnest was held to day by the coroner and w verdict of accidental | death was rendered. Great excitement prevails and hundreds of people have | gone to the scene of the disaster. _- A Mill for Making Patent Flour. The new structure at the Air Line de- pot, opposite the west front of Wilkes’ irov works, to be used by Phelps Broth- ersas a flouring mill, is now almost com plete aud ready tor the machinery. The building is ouly two. stories high and is not what might be called au imposing structure, yet the machinery within it will have a capacity of making fifty bar- rels per day of the fiuest brand of patent tlonr. Phelps Brothers will equip their will with the smallest machinery that can be used in the making of patent flour, and the eqnipment of the mill will cost $7,500. ‘They will make the brand of patent flour, using the ateel rollers aud all other improved machinery. This is an enterprise the like of which has long been needed in this section of the country, and that it will be a successful one, we have not the slightest doubts.-—Charlotte Observer. . _> Plenty of Wild Landin the East. No doubt many of our readers residing iv the Western States thin that all the arable Jand in the East, aud especially near. our larger cities, was) long since cleared of its forests and broken up with the plow. But the trath is there are han- dreds and thousands of acres all aloug our seaboard awaiting the axman and plowman. There is nearly half a million of acreson Long I[slind alone in the primitive state except perhaps that a portion of the best trees have been cat and put te practical use, but the land itself has never been disturbed by agri- cultural implements, Whint Long Island and while both are so vear the greatest city on this continent that the sound of its church bells may almost be heard iu the depths of their great forests, young and old men go West in search of new lands that they might find near home, at prices not much if any above what is asked for wild prairie within railroad Jimits.—N.

The tiegroes will soon find ont that such intemperate ex- pressions will gain them no friends—bat will tend to drive off from their support even the better class of Repalicans up North. The editor of the New York Sun when he undertakes to give the true inward- ness of the Radical programme in the day of reconstruction can probably speak by the book, for we believe it was only ifter'Hhat period that he abandoned the Radical party. What he says of the pur- poses of the Radical leaders in those times is then well worth considering, and he talks right out. Io a recent issue the Sun undertakes to show hew the violent legislation of the Rudical Jeaders has re- bounded upon them.and after the manner of a boomerang hait those who devised the outrages with the expectation of in- flicting uupnecessary wounds upon the Svathern whites. Attention is first call- ed to the fact that all those violent meas- ures have come to grief. The political advautages that were expected to accrue from them haye goue where the woodbiue twineth. They have failed and reacted upon the authors because none of them rested ot the basis of broad and enlightened states- manship. Sectional prejudice, personal hatred and a bigoted, narrow policy, says the Sun, prompted most of the legislation which disfigared the statute books during the years when extreme methods domina- ted in public councils. The intention of negro suffrage, remarks that paper, was to humiliate the South by negro represen- tation in Congress, and opposition was denounced as disloyalty to the gevern- ment. The result was only increased pret of the South. Now Republican eaders would gladly revoke negro suf- frage if they could. The reconstruction measures were ani- mated by the same spirit. Their main purpose, says the Suu, was to make the unedueated rule in the South by putting the late slaves of their former masters. To this end military power was used to supercede civil authority in times of peace. Atrocious force bills were intro- duced in Congress, but eventually rob- bery and villiauy became unpopular, and the enormities committed led to the emancipation of the South from a vulgar aud vicions despotism. Aud so also the civil rights bill which was enacted in 1875 to still further hamiliate the South- ern whites—that has gone by the board aud ended in smoke. It seems to be a tact that all the partisan, lawless legisla- tion of the radical leaders has proved to the detriment of the grand old party, and the Republicans of the North are in a worse box than if sach extreme measures had vever been enacted.

LUKE BLACKMER, 1883, Petober 231 19 ACKMER who wi]l make Moore and Wilson, arrived in the parish of St. Martin, in this State. Remaining there a few months, they came to this par- ish where they assumed the bames of Woods and Seott. They located in an ;ontof the way, secluded spot, in the Atchafalaya swamp, in the extreme south- ern part of the parish, where they follow- ed wood chopping for an Occupation. Ip the latter part of July of the present year both being sick with malarial fever, they left the swamp aud went tw Belle Cherie Springs, in the northwestern part of the parish where they assumed the names of W. B. Brown aud J. 'T. Lane. | was at the springs and was thrown in contact with them. They rented a room, had their own cooking utensils and did their own cooking ; associated but little with any of the visitors at the springs, but seemed to be quiet genteel men. | next heard of them oo the 25th of September, Ou that day Lane, the younger of the two, committed a most fiendish and atro- cious marder jn this parish. Ho and his | friend Brawn immediately started to leave the country. Two gentlemen liv- ing in the vicinity of the wurder, armed with pistols, mounted their horses and pursued them, ‘The two men seeing they | pursued, turned on their pursuers, and each drawing a pair of revolvers drove them back, telling them to inform all parties, private citizens and officers alike | that they never intended to be captured | alive. On the following day C.C. Duson, | sheriff of this parish, armed with a bench | warrant from my court and accom panied by two of his most reliable deputies, started in pursuit of the fugitives. Ou! the evening of the 28th he came up with them in the adjoining parish. They made | & most desperate resistance. Lane was finally shot through the left breast by the sheriffin the immediate region of the heart. Supporting himself aguinst a tree he SoueinGed ta fire until bis finger stiff- ened so that he could po longer pull the trigger of his pistol. He then surrender- ed, and died almest immediately. Hia companion, Brown, though badly wonnded in the right hand, did not cease to fire notil Lane fell. He then surrendered, aod throwing himself on the body of his dying friend, passionately kissed his lips time and again, and then turning to the sheriff piteously entreated him to shoot him and bury him with Lane. Brown then and there in reply toa question put to him by the sheriff, said that he and Lane were first cousins, and that they came from near Asheville, N.C. Inquiry by telegraph of the sheriff of that connty tas answered that Brown was ur known there. Brown since his incarceration has been very reticent, and Will tell nothing either of his own or Lane’s past history further than that he is from Nerth Carolina. To day I am informed that when they first arrived in the State they also claimed to be from your State, yeeeived letters therefrom, ani were always talking about the deeds aud the exploits of Redman band of out- laws of North Carolina. Both these men had been great ¢riminals before their ad- vent im our State, and they were certain- ly two of the most reckless desperadoes who have ever appeared in southwestern Louisiana. When Lane committed the murder in this parish on the 25th of Sep- teinber, Brown seems not to have been conuected with it. He was nop even present, hence here he can be held only as accessory after the fact, which under our statute is simply a misdemeanor. In the adjoining parish he can be held only for @sisting arrest, one of our low grades ottelony.

Constantinople the Ceutre of a Circle of Farthquakes. CONSTANTINOPLE, October 30.— Ever since the great earthquake of two weeks ago there has been a constantly recur- ring succeasion of shocks in all directions from the city, making a cirele of earth—- quakes, of which Constantinople to be the geographical center. Yet the “centre has not been shaken in the slight- est degree. Reporta which have heen brought every day by Arabs from the desert, Christians on their tours and sail- ors on ships, have created. considerable alarm here, however, and tome of the in- habitants of the city have made prepara- tions for hasty flight from sections where the buildings are put up closely. Great Which came tearing down the steep declivities with landslides have occurred, the water, sweeping before habitation. Chios Island, Samos, Meta- lin and Lasbos, all a few miles off the them every western coast of Auatobia, in the Argean up, and there was a large loss of life and proper- ty ou Samos and Lesbos, while the other Sea, were all severely shaken two suffered much loss. The dispatohes sent from here by the agent of the Rueter Telegram Company about disasters have been meagre and uusatisfactory. Those sent to the Central News were somewhat fuller, but neither have given any idea of the real extent of the earthquakes aud enormous damage to property resulting therefrom. Advices from Smyrna say that all throngh Anato- bia the inhabitants bave been leaving their homes and seeking places of greater safety. That their fears were well grounded the developments of the past forty-eight hours show. Saturday bight shocks which have been of daily oceur- rence for the past fifteen days, became quite severe and before daylight nearly all the people in the shaken districts had left their homes for the open country. Soon after the sun came up and the sky became gnddenly overcast, and great black clouds rotted up from the Eastern horizon with great rapidity, forming a complete inky cavepy where there had been a clear blue. There was a very sud- den depression of the barometer, and many animals and birds became alarmed and took quick flight. Then the vibra- tion began to increase in violence and frequency. Ten clearly defined shocks are said to have occurred before 9 o'clock. The waves then became almost continuous, extend- ing from the northeast to the soath west. As they continued, building after baild- ing tottered, and about 11 o'clock, at which hour the shocks for some unex- | plained reason were always most severe, there came a most tremendous crash, and the ontire destruction of the city ‘seemed imminent. The walls of Smyrna, which which have been standing since the time of the crusades, were completely demuol- ished. With them many of the remains of uneient Smyrna haveSbeen destroyed. On Caatle Hill some large fragments of anciept columns were thrown dewa and smasher iuto small pieces, and many of the handsome mouuments in the great to establish Brown's fdentity Tarkish may be called to account in sister States, for crimes com- ved fo our State.

The relics of the temple within the castle Inclosure are now destroyed, and the stadium io which St. Polyearp suffered martyrdom is lost tosigiit. Nu- ‘merous columns, busts, cornices and oth- er architectaral fragments built in the walls of the Turkish town, are broken into bits. Ruins of an antiqne mosque, said to have been the primative ehurch of Smyrna, which stood withiu the castle _ wall, have fallen. | The.British Military Hospital is shaken dew but the few patients under treat- | fP mietit thére Had béen removed before the ° 4 #terson, crash came. Of the many coffee houses near Caravan Bridge, over the meles, on- ly two are left standing. The statious along the line of the Smyrna & Alden | Railway are all iv ruins, and the tracks are twisted into such shapes that it is | thought new lines will have to be run. , The iton patisade sarrounding the bar- rocks on the sliore is thrown down, and the bricks themselves are very badly damaged. Hardly a haman being is vis- | ible withiu the city. A solitary Arab groping about the narrow, crooked atreets as a friendlesa dug searching wearily for ® morsel from the shattered kitchens are the only sigus of life.

Many smajl land sliles took. place from the peaks of chains stretching in a westerly direction from the great central ridge be- tween Arjist Dagh and Attuh Dugh. Along the coast of Greece shocks yes- terday were very severe and cunsed great loas of life.

KENDALL & CO., Dear Sirs:—I purchased at Louisville, Ky., a very fine bred colt, and in sbip- ping he got his hock badly hurt on the outside of the joine which caused ic to swell three or four times the natural size, whica made him very lame. I tried a great many }io) ments which failed to benefit the injured part. At Jast when disgusced, and ready to give up the co't as ruined, I happened to see yourad- vertisement 0° ‘‘Kendall’s Blister and Spavin Cure,” and thought I would give ita trial, I first applied the “Blister” .9 the hock which by this time had calloused, and to my surprise found it worked likea charm. In twenty-four hours the part that was hard became soft and the lameness began to leave. I then got some of “Kendall's Spavin Cure” and ap- plied it according to directions, which has made a rfect cure, and the coltis now as sound as any orse alive. I merely write this letter to you, as I think it a duty I owe to you, and also for tne good of the pubic at large. The foregoi statemeat I will affidavit to. and can also have the same verified by the best Lorse- men in our city who saw the colt before and after treatment.

To day the Boston Institute fair closes, and with itends the exhibition of our North Carolina products in that city, It has been a great display of our resources, well selected, admirably arranged and always attended by courteous gentlemen ready to impart information to the stream of visitors constantly examining it. We hope that it will not be regarded ont ot place fer us to say that the State is in- debted tothe taste of Mra. Dadney for the beaatiful arrangement of the cereals and agricultural products. Dr. Dabney in like manner, deserves great credit for the general arrangement of the matters in big line. Mr. MeGehee, Mr. Wilson aod Mr. Kerr and Mr. Braner also per- formed their duties unexceptioually. We feel that the people of North Carolina owe them all thanks. Col. Pardee has labored unceasingly in the interest of North Carolina in the matter, and to him also is due especial acknowledgewent. The officers of the institution, including Messrs. Griffin and Little, have been as kind and attentive as possible, and their kindness should not be forgotten. Mr, Edward Atkinson has shawu a warm interest iv the success of the exhibit, aud the Byston press has from the beginning been more than kiud in the watter. The Herald, the Post, the Traveller and the Advertiser have. each dove well by us, while the Commercial Bulletin has iv each issue for a month past devoted an eutire column to our North Carolina display. It is not making au invidious distinction therefore to thank the Messrs. Guild ip particular for the space accorded to North Carolina in the latter paper. The North Carolina exhibit was worthy of kiod remarks and it received them on all sides, The general effect bas been to give North Curvliva’s resources a promi- nence never before attained. For this the Department deserves great credit, however, is not to be given to the De- partment of Agriculture alove, The sea- board live and its connections should not be forgotten. A very large and im- portant pertion of the exhibits was ob- tained and prepared under the direction of these railroad lines and proved of great value. Creditus wellas thanks are due tu Maj. Winder, Mr. Clarke and others fur their work as well as to Mr. Robisson and the railroad and steam- ship lines tor their anusual liberality. Had it not been for their liberal offer to trapaport the exhibit without cust, per- haps the entire scheme may have fallen throagh. We anticipate from this display the happiest results. [t marks the opeu- ing of a vewera for North Carolina. Without doubt the display has been worth tous hundreds of thousands of doilars. Already parties from New Eug- laud are coming to vur State for them- selves—and we must believe that under the direction of Mr, Patrick who has dis- played remarkable evergy and prudence, their visits will be very satisfactory. We do not aniticipate a great rush—bat we do expect that thousands of New Eng- landers will quietly fiud homes iv our midst and coutribate in their own way tu bailding up the prosperity of the State.

Kerr, State Geologist, and aleo of the United States Southere Divi- sion Geological Surveying Corps, with Prof. Geo. B.

The principal mines will be visited so as to get at as correet an idea of their under groand workings as possible, and at the same time give the geology of the State. Both, Profs. Kerr and Hanna, went under ground at Dutch Creek, examined the vein matter and workings on the same ; making notes and observations of the mine for their report, and expressed themselves much pleased with the pros— pect, the faets of which will appear iu their report. An additioual foree has been put on io the copper shaft, and the work of sinking ou the 15° veiu will be pushed vigoreus- ly so as to strike the janction of the 45° vein at the depth of 164 feet on the in- cline of the 15° veiu. Both of these veins show gold and copper in paying quan— tities. Levels are being driven at the 80 fout level, north and south, ou the chutes of the 15° vein which, at this level, are 34 feet wide and dip to the east. The 45° vein is 110 feet west of the 15° vein, dips to the east also, and at 30 feet is three feet wide, and shows gold and copper. It is expected that work will also be resumed ou the Hill aud Tip Top gold veins of this mine. ape Mineral Map. Mr. J.J. Newman, of Dateh Creek Mine, is now engaged in making a map of all the mineral properties uorth of Gold Hill to the Yadkin River. It is his desire to make it complete and ewbrace every tract of land between Gold Hill and the river in the belt. The co operation of all interest- ed is earnestly solicited. Tbe courses and distances of each owners land is re- quesied with as fall a discription of the land as possible, to ve left at the Dutch Creek Mine, or mailed him at Lock Box 61, Salisbury, N.C. Mr. Newman wishes all of this data at once, 80 that the map cau be completed iu time to be embraced in the report of Prof. W.C. Kerr.

Early’s notice in his book, “The Last I'wo Years of the A. N. V.” [ have never seen any meution of it. A regiment that had for its colonels G. B.

If the number of its dead is any evideues ot ita werk, the plains of Manassas, the swamps of the Chickahomiuy, the banks of the Potomac, the Shenanduah, the Rappahannock, the Rapidan and the James, all have received the bodies of its menu. If evidence of its courage is want- ed, ask its living conmauders, D. H. Hill, Early aud Gordon. Commeucing its work at Seren Pines, it was one of the few that held McClellan in cheek at Boousboro, ove of the centre at Sharpe- burg, on the right at Fredericksburg, ov the tlauk at Chaneellorsville, and was one of the regiments that ‘charged over the gallant Virgivia regiment. Its colonel, Ramseur, fought through the streets of Gettysburg aud nearly to the gates of Washington ; it was one of the regiments that Gen. Lee complimented, when he spoke of Cox’s brigade; was in the first charge at Appomattox and surrendered its colors there for the first and last tine.

After two doses, the effect is seen in brightness of the eyes and clearness of the skin. All pim- ples and eruptions vanish like magic under the influence of this purifying purgative. We cannot stop the march of time with any medi- cine: but Brandgeth’s Pills will remove the excessive lime from the system and prevent grey haiz. They improve the sight and tone up the kuman body, ao that the old man’s eyes will be undimmed and his natural force una- bated even after seventy years. Best in the World. Brandreth’s Pills have stood the test of forty- five years of use by the American people. They are egtirely Vegetable. They are absolutely universa),for there is no disease they will not cure, iftakenintime. They are safe for infants and adulta. They aim to ac- complish three things : first, to purify the blood; second, to cleanse and regulate the stomach and bowels; third, to stimulate the kidneys and liver and purge away the ashes of the sys tem and diseased matters of the body. By pur- ging wi.h these Pills constantly, a new body can be built up from fresh, healthy food in a few months. Inthis way, gout and rheuma- tism, ulcers and fever sures can be eradicated in a few weeks. The worst cases of dyspepsia and costiveness can be cured by taking ene or two pills eyery night for a month. In cases of twenty years’ standing, gentlemen have been cured by taking one pill a night for a year. Brendreth’s Pills give tothe human body, no matter how worn or decayed, the recuperative powers of youth, In their action, they imitate the rapid changes of the youtl:iful body. We all wirh to die of ohd age,. A lundred years is the natural.limit of life, which can only be reached by purging and purification, In general debilify, nervous tremor, and mental depression Brandreth’s Pills havea marvejons effect,. They have won the confi- denae of millions in ald parts of the civilized world, Constitations stiaken by long residence in uawholesome climates, ur bysedentary hab- ils, are wonderfully renoyated by a course of this extraordinary medicine, which, powerful as ia its action on the whole system, is perfect- ly harmless to the tenderest frame. The Pills are composed of rare balsamse, without the ad- mixture of a grain of any minerul whatever, or of any other deleterious substance, They operale direetly, powerfully, and beneficially upon the whole mass of blood ; nor can we question the fact when we see indigeation cured, liver con. plajnts arrested, the oppressed lungs brought into healthful play, and every physical func- tionrenewed and strengthened by theiragency.

A VISIT TO AN ORIENTAL RESTAUB- ANT IN NEW YORK. Strange Dishes Partaken of by a Re- porter—The Courses and the Food -—Chinese Idolatry, Sam Lee.,is the famons Chinese restaurateur of tliis city, and his sho vn Mott street is the resort for his nabob countrymen, who regale them- selves with a first class dinner eook- ed in true nativestyle. Sam belongs to the Auh Wall factiou, having been born outside the great wall that en- circles the ancient empire. Ouly a few, such as wealthy wash- ermen or fortunate gamblers, who have beaten the inexplicable game of tau, which ‘isin’ continaal progress across the street, become reckless enough to aquander twenty-five cents for a Sunday dinner at the Cafe Chine, as it is familiarly termed, For certain dis!es, such as duck, fish and’ game, Sam’s reputation stands unrivaled, and the almond- eyed gourmands linger long to smoke the after dinner cigarette, which no- companies every first class meal, and discuss current home events. ‘You likee China dinnee?’ said Gon Lung, the vice-president of the Woe Foo company, toa World re- porter. A nod in the affirmative caused him to say: ‘Bella good. Wego to Sam Lee: him cookee boss.’ And he looked ever the broad rim of his armored spectacles—which gave him the ap- pearance of a dry fog in search of a bath. The dining hall. situated on the second floor was reached by means of a narrow. staircase which led toa room filled with smal] tables neatly covered with figured damask. The walls from the eeijing to the floor are covered with the various newspapers which are intended to be read while the guest munches his meals, In the far-off corner behind a lit- tle counter stood a solemn Chinaman who filled a number of little saucers with the contents of half .a dozen grotesque jars in frovt of him, pith the gravity of ministers, while round about ranged on shelves were count- less numbers of little teapots each holding about acup. ‘There was no smell of coukiug, as the kitchen is on the roof and the dishes go up and down the dumb waiter with military regularity. The dinner was served by a waiter in spotless white who ar- rived bearing a tray on which were two caps of rice boiled in sucha way as to bave each kerne] retain. its dis- tinct form, a jug of curry sauce and four chopsticks, Without waiting Gon opened-the ball by mixing his rice and curry, then rajsing the cup to his mouth by a peculiar shoveling aciign sven emptied the dish, while his welcome guest was vamly uttemp- ling to catch on toa grain of rice with the sticks; a spoou svon reme- died the defect; an@the meal pro- ceeded without further interruption, ‘He has forgetten to bring the bread,’ was the remark ventured as the next cuurse, consisting of roast duck cut in 6lices, over which was poured a peculiar smelling mustard sauce, and a plate of preserved gin- ger was brought on, ‘Chinaman no eattee blead—no good,’ answered Gon, as he stead- ted the chopsticks, and grabbing a slice of duck dipped it first into the vilgrimage, and before passing to another, and trust, a better world, | wish to bear tesfimo- purifiers and cleansers of the stumnach and bow. elain the world.

Same old Story. An Americen Girl Marries a: Count Who Already Has Two Wives. A telegram to the Times-Star says, Wm. Wallace is one of the wealthiest inen in Naugatuck Valley and pre- prietor of .a lange manufacturing es- tablishment in Ansonia. He has but ove child, a daughter, who has re- ceived a eareful and liberal education. In 1880 she went te Europe, and there met a Polish count named QOs- terug. He could speak only French and she only English. He was-en- gaged in the photograph business. They were attracted by one another, and each set about learning the lan- guage of the other, Miss Wallace returned home in the spring of ’81 te obtain the consent of her parents tu her marriage with the Count. He wag sent fer and came by the next steanier, The parents of the girl were not particularly pleased with his person- al appearance, but the wedding came off,and for a timethecouplelived atthe bride’s home, moved in the best so- ciety of Connecticut and visited fam- ily relatives of the Wallaces. At length the Count and Countess re- turned to Europe, and Mr. and Mrs. Wallace went thither last winter to spend the season with them. They stayed in Paris, and the young Amer- ican Countess was the center of a fashionahle circle. Suddenly the fath- er, mother aud daughter came home- ward bound, leaving the Count be+ hind. Satisfactory excuses were given in answering for his non-appearance, and ho suspicious were aroused. Gradu- ally. however, it become known ip the family eirele of the Walluces that there was some trouble, and news from across the water was not in every way satisfactory. Now the rumors have escaped beyond the family circle and, have become the town talk. Careful search, it is as- serted, has brought out the fact that the Count is already the possessor of two wivesin France. An attempt on the part of the Wallaces to get a divorce revealed these facts. The proceedings fora divoree are now being rapidly pushed. The family regret that the facts have become public. bat say-they expected such nust be the case if: justice was to be obtained, a Are There no Reasons. There is no reason why the negroes should not be compelled to provide their own schools. If this were done their sympathisers in the North might be induced to aid them. The whites should first educate their own offspring.— Wil. Star, As much as we dislike to disagree with the Star, on this subject we cannot agree. For hundreds of years they have been slaves of the whites, forbidden the knowledge of letters, and com- mon gratitude demands our aid. In the next place, he is endowed with all the rights and privileges that that term implies, and it seems to us the safety and prosperity of the whites, as also of the State, admonish us to make him an educated and bet— ter citizen than he now is. Lastly the principle is dangerous, for if based on the pecuniary consid- eration of taxation it will end ina refusal to educate the poor whites from the taxes of the rich. Class legislation is not to be tolerated and should not be asked for in this country. It is syid the negroes elected Hoadly in Qhio and are leaving Ma- hone in Virginia. Their education is our only hope fora continuation of such couduct. — Western Carolinian. They are bound to be subject of contention in some forny or ether. —_ a er He Saw the Point.

At any rate, I believe in my father, and he believed the story I am 0 My father wasa Briton. He lived in England many years ago. He resided at Ipswich ' and once had occasion to go to London | upon business. It was during a pe-' riod of great popular commotion, and the city being very full, he had seme trouble in finding a lodging. The master of the house observed that it’ was a good, large room (for he could | get but one), and very comfortable, if he did not mind—but there he stop-' ped, for his wife gave him a nudge. | That made my father suspect some- | thing was vot quite right. “It isn’t over a slanghter house, or’ a burial ground, or a dissecting roow, ' is 1L? says he, | “Oh dear, no,” says the landlord ; “but some people say the next house ‘8 haunted ; and that anybody who sleeps in this room can see a Jady in white, crying at that window that you can see there.” ‘Oli! is that all?’ says my father; ‘perhaps there’s sume poor maniac con- fined there. Whether or no, howev- er, that’s no objection, for I don’t care a rush for all the ghosts that ever. were invented,’ | room, and before vight closed in he had an opportunity of taking an accu- | rate survey of the neighboring prem- ises. A lead roof, apparently over a workshop, lay between his window | and that where the ghost was said to| appear; only there was this difference, | that he could easily step out of his! was about nine or ten feet higher. My | father always vowed that he was per- | fectly sober when he went to bed. He couldn’t tell how long he had been asleep, when he was suddenly awaken- ed by loud screams, and when he opened his eyes he saw that the opo- site house was on fire. He was on the leads in a moment. The haunted room was filled with bright flames, and at the window stood a lovely | young woman, clasping a baby in her urms and screaming for help. | ‘Oh! save my child | save my child!’ she kept on crying in tones of such anguish that they wentto my father’s very heart. ‘Give it to me,’ he said, fand then | jump out into my arms. The distance | is nothing—you cannot be hurt. Take courage. Now give me the baby.’ She leaned forward and dropped the baby, wrapped up in ashawl, into my father’s arms, Just as he got it safe, it seemed to him that the rvof fell in. There was a crashing noise, but not very loud; the flames disappeared, and so did the young lady. In at his window he rushed again, and through the house, shouting, ‘fire! fire! with all his might, and. with the baby still in his arms. Out rushed the landlord as pale as a ghost, and his wife after him in such a monument of a night-eap that it quite overawed my father even in the midst of his agitation, The maid was shrieking murder down in the kicth- Jen, and the apprentices had tun bled out from under the counter in the shop, and were poking their noses out | and kindly inquiring who was killing her; and on every Janding up the stairs the lodgers were calling out to know what was the matter. There was al- together a terrific row in the place. | ‘The next house is on fire!’ said my father. ‘It’s only the old story,’ said the landlord. ‘Run up stairs, my dear, and tell them it’s a false alarm.’ ‘But it’s not a false alarm,’ says my father, ‘fur I saw the flames and I saw the roof fall in, and I fear that a lady is buried under the ruins. Why | don’t you come and help her? She; had just dropped her child into my | arms when the roof fell.’ ‘The landlady then first set eyes ou | the bundle, for her husband at that) moment lighed a candle from the rush- | light, which had very imperfectly il- luminated the scene before. ‘A baby!’ says she. ‘Yes, says my futher ; ‘and I think J’d better leave it with you, madam, while J go and endeavor to rescue the mother.’ The woman did not speak nor utter a sound, but she just lifted up the shaw! from the child’s face and drop- ped down like a lump of lead upon the floor. Instead of attending to her, both my father and the landlord look- ed into the shawl. It contained the skeleton of an infant, wrapped up in the rags of what had once been very costly garments. My father felt very sick, and the landlord staggered back against the wall and dropped the can- dlestick out of his hand. When the landtady fell, (she was a tall, heavy woman, and gave the house a good shake,) the maid screamed murder louder than ever, and the lodgers call- ed out yet more energetically to know what was the matter. That frighten- October Vad, 1883, Caro for he thought if they came down and saw what my father had got, it would frighten them all out of be house. So he caught up the candle, which luck- ily was not extinguished by. the fall, and pushed my father with bis ban- dle into the bed room. Then he call- ed out that it was only the strange gentleman who had had the night- mare, and his wife had been frighten- ed into a fainting fit. So they all went grumbling back to bed, and the men helped his wife into her room, , where my father stood trembling and shaking, not having presence of mind enough to put down the bundle, and pot even during to look into it again. The little skeleton was quietly bu- ried the next day by au eld sexton, who asked no questions, as he kuew the landlord was _g respectable house- holder ; and so they alheoncladed that} the ghost was satisfied, and that that was the reason why slic never appear- ed again. When my father examined the place closely by daylight, he saw evideut marks of fire about the windows, but he was assured these were the remains ofa fire that had happened there a great many years before. In short, the whole affair of the apparation seemed to shroud some fearful myste- ry, which was perfectly inexplicable. Some years after, when he was in Lon- don again, my father endeavored to find out the house in the hope of ob- taining some clew to the mystery, but ruins, ‘The street and some others were just demolished to make way for that which is now Regent street.—N.

Several of his ucquaintences, desiring to test the accuruey of his buastings, accordingly entered into a contrivance which met with complete success. and another man, whose name can not | | be learned, approached Joln—as his | Christian name is—and unfolded to him a scheme by which the quartet could carn $100 for a few hour’s work. A body was to be abstracted from Lone Mountain and upon presentation atacertain doctor’s office the men could receive $100. ‘The readily entered the trap and last Sun- day night was the time chosen for the resurrection, Turner, Winfield aud the victiny accordingly boarded the ‘Sutter street cars about 6:45 and rode out tuthecemetery, The fourth man was to meet them at the graveyard with a horse and wayon to convey the body back to town, Arrived at the terminus of the road, the trio made their way toward the cemetery and Joho anxiously inquired ; “When will we get the money ?” Turner replied ; ‘lo-night, when we bring the body to the doctor.’ Arrived at the scene of their labors, Johu was posted in the brush as to act as ‘lookout.’ In case he heard any noise or any one approaching he was to stand up and open his coat, exposing his white shirt, which was to be the signal for the others to make their escape. Turner and Winfield left him in his biding-place, presum- ably to dig up the body, but in reali- ty to make a short cut through the cemetery, and take the Geary street cars and return home. ‘They came back to the city, enjoying heartily the joke, and the supposed driver of the wagon was comfortably seated in a theater, all unmindful of the poor vie- tim watching and waiting alone in the vast ‘city of the dead.’ The minutes passed into hours and still the foreman remained faithful at his post, regardless of the cold wind and fog driven in from the ocean and which had nearly benumbed him, Silence reigned supreme ; vot a sound was heard but the night wind moan- ing fitfully around the tombs and headstones. The midnight hour, when raveyards yawn, arrived and passed and still the lone sentinel waited for the coming of his confederates. About 1 o’clock he was startled by a noise. Hastily he opened his coat, exposed his shirt and fled. When he arrived at the terminus he found that they had stepped rua- ning and he was compelled to walk home, ever and anon anxiously turn- ing around to see if he was pursued, His mind was anything but serene.

A Waghington letter says that Seuators begin to be seen on the avenue. This is a sight that, like the bird in February, points to a speedy coming season. Why it happens that the first sign of the new session is the strolling Senator, or the Senator in his barrouche, is hard to tell. Representatives keep away until a few days before the session opens. Many of the Senators come a mouth ahead of time. The new Senate will be a body of very rich men. There were many weatthy members in the last Congress but a ma- jority of the new Senators are very rich Some of them intend to make a great show this winter. Palmer the successor of Ferry, has taken Window's house. Pal- mer counts his riches by millions. Sabin, who beat Windom, was wise enough to make himself a willionaire before he came to the Senate. Bowden, of Colora- do, who sneceeded the ephemeral Tabor, is very rich, aud may hear any day that his mines have produced a bonanza. Col- quitt, of Georgia, is almost as rich as his colleague, Joe Brown. Randall Gibson, of Louisiana, inherited great wealth and was fortunate enough to save a good deal of it from the wreckage of the Confedera- ey. The richest man in the Senate is Fair, of Nevada, and probably Philetur Sawyer, a comical statesman, stand next. Sawyer can draw his check for a great deal of money, yet he is so timid that he is afraid of the sound of his own voice on the floor of the Senate. Dolph, the Oregon lawyer, is wealthy in pros- pects if not it property just yet. Itis a nistake, however, to suppose that the rich men simply come to the Senate to show off. The laziest man in that body is ove of the peorest, and ancther who depends entirely on his salary for sup- port, occupies the whole time in writing long and absurd constitutional speeches. Some of the hardest working men in the Senate are very wealthy. * — - _ A suspicious looking box vont» \' ing clockwork machinery, feowed floating in the doek-at Halifuk Sain» near one of ler Mujesty’s wa> ships, created intense exciteme::: The admiral was summoned in basi to open the hox.

In twenty-four hours the part that was hard became soft and the lameness began to leave. I then got some of “Kendall's Spavin Cure” aad ap- plied it according to directions, which his madea perfect cure, and the colt is now as sound as any horse aHve.

My brother had a young horse which developed a bone spavin which he cured and at the same time removed the enlargement. A Mr. A. K.

The North Carolinian has uo nousense about him, he does vot court the winning grace of his brother in the neighboring State; be is shrewd, chews his own tobacco, and saves “darn.” As a soldier he fought with w tenacity and pluck of a hero, aud to day makes no boast of it; in fact, but for the war record which shows the yreat percent. of ‘tslain” among the North Carolinians, one would never kuow that “Bravely they fought, and well,” for My first point was Wilmington, town which struck me in the tirst place, pleasantly, because there you have the water, washing up dark avd cold at the city’s very feet, and the pretty white sails “that have about them the joyous bess of a bird.” My next impression was that of the town’s having accomplished less for its advantages than any other of my knowledge, and that there were more begroes, goat wagons aud ox carts visible than anything eise on the streets.

The Georgia Legis-| lature meets before the Exposition opens, aud by that time its greatuess will be so evident that it cannot be doubted that “the Empire State” of the Svath will vote a handsome appropriation.

Wintlirop, speaking of Federal aid to education, says: “National aid is the only adequate provision in this great exigency and the nation will be false to its own highest obligations and responsibilities in leaving it undone.” Philadelphia Record: The most im- portant result of the New York election is to etrengthen C. A. Arthur as the next Republican candidate for President. if New York declares for Arthur in the next Republican National Convention he will probably be the candidate of his party, and there is good reason to be- lieve that New York will so declare. In forecasting the probable result of the next. Presidential election, it will be well for amature statisticians to bear in mind that a solid South and forty-eight other votes will constitute a majority of the whole number of 401 electorial votes to be cast. As matters stand at preseut this wakes a very discouraging outlook for the Republican party.— Washington Star, Ind. Augusta Chronicle: The removal of George D. Robinson from Congress is a Democratic gain of no mean proportions. The Republicans, te beat Butler, have shorn themselves of their ablest congress- iman, and the only one fit to be a con- /summate leader of his party iu the House | of Representatives. deh eke ee U ‘ es + 7 a 3 = a is = = . ay : = € ° ie) <> — oJ ACC ey Se One of the Best Fall and Winter STOGKS OF EVER BROUGHT TO THIS MARKET, WHICH WAS SELECTED in Person, with Great Care as to Prices, Quality, Beauty and to suit the tastes of our Customers, and which we will sell'as cheap as the cheapest.

Testimonials are received every day of the wonderful cures of Sprains, Weak Back. Rhematism, Lumbago, Paralysis and hosts of other diseases. Of course the vast sales and great success of ALLCock's Porous PLastexs have caused numerous plasters to be brought before the public which, be- ing called porous, would give the world to understand that they were a similar article, to the genuine. We would most particular ly caution the public against these hum- bugs. They contain none of the healing gums that are used in ALicock’s, but are simply a combination of lead, red pepper and rubber, and are vaunted in long wind- ed advertisements as an improvement on ALLcock’s Porous PLasters. Beware of the hazy and untrue statements and never use any of these so-called porous frauds. Alleock’s Porous Plasters Relieve Debility and Nervousness. ALLcocg’s PLASTERS worn on the region of the kidueys warms the spinal marrow whieh ia a continuation of the brain, im-— parting new vitality snd power to the spine they stregthen tiat mighty organ and fill it full of foreign electricity or nervous fluid. Thus they wil! restore to the busy active brain of man or woman, the energy and ability which has been lost by disease, wor ry or overwork. They restore vitality where there has been debility and nervous- ness, and prevent loss of memory and pa- ralysis. Physicians highly recommend them for nervous debility, whether arising from dissipation or overwork. They are now known to be the great regenerators of the nervous system and are invaluavle in all cases of hysteria. Wwe ak Hidmecys Cured. Contoocook, N.

( ALLCocK’S PLASTERS have been of such yreat service to me and mine that I feel it a duty to state the fucts, as briefly as possi ble, to induce others to use them. My wife for many years was continued to her bed suffering from spinal disease. After spertl ing a thousand dollars in vain effort to get cyred, she applied three ALLCocK'’s Prhas— PERS tothe spinal column, one above the other, Jn a few days all pain left her. She applied fresh plasters every two weeks and in the course of two months she com- pletely recovered ber health. At first she could hardly walk across the room: each day ehe walked a little further, and now she 1s able to walk five miles without fa- tigne. She still occasionally applics the plasters to her back, but she has been per tectly well for upward of a year. LEW]Is L. HAMMEL.

WELLS SPERRY. “A Blessing in Disguise.” 484 ADELPni St., Brook.yn, } March 29,1881. {4 No family shoyld be without ALLcock’s TOM SAWYER’S FENCE. Tom Sawyer, having offended his sule lian, Aunt Polly, is by that sternly affectionate dame punished by being set to whitewash the fence in front of her garden. The world seem- eda hollow mockery to Tom, who had planned fun for that day, and he knew that he would be the laugh- ing steck of all the boys as they came past and saw him set to work like a “nigger.” But a great inspiration burst upon him. What that inspira- tion was will appear from what fol- lows : One of the beys, Ben Rogers comes by and pauses, eating a particularly fine apple. Tom does not see him. Ben stares for a moment and then says : ‘Hi-yi! you’re a stump, ain’t you?’ No answer. Tom surveyed his last touch with the eye of an artist, then he gave another gentle sweep and surveyed the result as before. Ben ranged up alongside of him. Tom’s mouth watered for the apple; but he stuck to his work. Ben said : ‘Hello, old chap; you’ve got te work, he?’ ‘Why, it’s you Ben; I wasn’t no- licing.’ ‘Say, lam going in swimming, I am. Don’t you wish you could? But of course you’d rather work, wouldu’t you? Course you would,’ Tom contemplated the boy a bit, aud said : ‘What do you call work ? ‘Why, ain’t that work ? Tom resumed his whitewashing, and answered carelessly ; ‘Well, maybe it is, and maybe it ain’t. All I know is, it suits Tom Sawyer.’ ‘Oh, come now, you don’t mean to let on you like it?” The brush continued to move. ‘Like it? Well, don’t see why I vughtu’t to like. Dues a boy get a chance to whitewash a fence every day ?’ That put the thing ina new light. Ben stopped nibbing at his apple. Tom swept his brush daintily back and forth, stepped back to note the effect, added a touch here and there, aud criticised the effect. aguin, Ben watching every move, and getting more and more interested, more and more absorbed, Presently he said : ‘Say, Tom, let me whitewash a little,’ Tom considered —was about to con- sent—but altered his mind. ‘No; no; L reckon it would hardly do Ben, You see, Aunt Pelly’s awful particular about this fence— right here on the street, you know—but if it wasthe back fence [ wouldn’t mind, and she wouldu’t. Yes, she’s awful particular about this fence ; is got to be done very careful; 1] rechon there ain’t a boy ina thousand maybe two thousand, that ean do it in the way i’s got to be done.’ ‘No—is that s0? Oh, come now, lemme just try, only just a little. Id let you, if you was me, Tom,’ ‘Ben, Pd like to, honest Injun, but Aunt Polly—well, Jim wanted to do it, but she wouldu’t let bia, Sid wanted to do it, but she wouldu’t let Sid. Now, dow’t you see how I am fixed? If you was to tackle this fence and anything was to happeen te 1(— ‘Oh, shucks! Vl be just as careful. Lemme try.

And while and sweated in the sun on a barrel in with re- alacrity in Ben worked the artist sat the shade close by, dangled his legs, munched his apple and planned the slaughter of moer innocents.

The Great Central Orb Blotted and Blurred. We had a few days since an exccl- lent view of the sun’s face through the telescope of the Killingly astrono- mer. For this fair tewn possesses an astronomer, whose dwelling is on the heights, and whose simple observa- tory commands a view of the celes- tial concave that would delight the heart of an observer compelled to take his view of the starry heavens through intervening branches, or to wait till the golden twivklers have climbed above the hills skirting the horizon, or made their shining way nearly to the zenith before they come into the range of his g)ass. The Killingly astronomer is a farmer, has not only gained a living out of the soii, but has saved money enough from his hard earnings to in- dulge in the luxury of a telescope for the amusement of his few leisure hours, sending to Paris for his glass, a fairly good instrament with a three inch aperture. It was through this telescope that we observed his majes- ty thesun witha low power that brought his whole dise into the field of vision. The great central orb of the system was blotted and blurred. His golden face was ° disfigured by three huge spots, one iu the southera and two in the northern hemisphere. the largest spot covered a spaco of at least a twentieth of the sun’s diame- ter, which, translated into figures, is about 44,000 wiles. Imagination fails to give an idea of a huge cavity or raging cyclone on such a gigantic scale. ‘The earth could be tossed into the seething vortex like a ball intoa pond. The foor inner planets, Mercury, Venus, the earth and Mars, transfused into one mass, would not half fill the chasm, if its depth is in proportion to its external dimensions, Even the giant Neptune, the third planet in size cf the solar family, measured side by side with this enormuus sun cavern, would not equal its diameter by thousands of miles, - Immense as was the size of this sun spot, it has been greatly exceeded by several that have been observed during the past year. Phe second spot was nearly as large us the first, aid the third was by no means insignificant, ‘ What can be the matter with the Haming globe that shines overhead every day? No ove knows, but we have faith that some day the cause of sun spots and their periodicity will be discovered, When many years have rolled on, and mountains of ob- servations have been piled upon each other, Jike the mystic Ossa upon Pelion to seale the heavens, the secret of the great black spots that disfigure the sun will be learned. ‘Then alsu we may hope to detect the origin of the mysterious tie that binds together the sun and planets and the eause of the magnetic disturbances that du- ring the present maximum of sun spots have raged in terrestrial quar- ters in the form of cyclones, whirl- winds, floods, auroras,earthquakes and tidal waves. It is comforting to think that the height of the sun spot cycle is passing and that we may hope henceforth for more peaceful sunbeams and gent- ler breezes. —Providence Journal. —— ——--<- — ~ North Carnlina Silk.

The crusade against tobacco is car- ried on with uumitigated ferocity. At the meeting of the “English Anti- Tobacco Society and Anti-Narcotic Ieague” at Manchester, on Mohday, statements were made respecting the effects of tobacco calculated, even more than the pernicious weed itself, to de- stroy the nerves of smokers. Among other evils which were said to be the result of smoking, the following were specially enumerated: Cancer, affec- tions of the bronchial tubes, loss of appetite aud imperfect digestion, dis- organs, nervous (liseases generally. One curious fact was mentioned with deep regret—namely, that of late years smoking had increased among medical students. It is really incom- preheusible how those who are being educated in the art of preserving health should at the same time adopt a certain method of destroying their} own, Not the least melancholy part of the affair is the fact that these smoking medieal studegts are Cevel- eping into doctors who will, if they do they do their duty, feel bound to News. jeut off their patients’ cigars and pipes. ee tee Rene 4 dyed ease of the liver and the respiratory |. i s ne ™ . e*: %, eee by Wm.

The destruction and consumptivn of timber is so great that the time is comioag when it will be far more valaable than now. Remember, the pepulation of this country will be one handred willious in fifty years from 1830, aud you may safely calculate the price of timber at very nearly double the present rates. Waluut, chestnat,persimmon,black locust, catalpa, white oak and hickory, are all valuable timbers aud with the ex- ception of oak and hickory, are rapid growers. Trae, the man whe plants the seeds of these trees may vot live te reap the harvest in timber, but sach a planta- tion will ceriainly add value to the Jands iu proportion to its extent and the labor that has been bestowed on it; and the pro- fite may reasonably be expected to enure to the benefit of bis heirs. Iu this connection we present the fol- luwivg, which will be found of interest to every man entertaining this subject as worthy of attention : Walnat Timber.—Robert W. Best has an interesting commanication in the Ral- eigh Christian Adzocate of the 14th irst. iu relation to the planting of black wal- nat trees. He quotes the price of the Inmber in the New York warket at $125 to $190 per thousand feet. He advises planting the waluuts iv the early part of ' the winter, before the nuts getdry. The. distance he recommends is 8x12 feet, or 500 trees per acre. makes them grew ap straight. When the lrees are ten years old Mr. Best recom- mends that half of them be cat oat. He says they will make capital posts for fen- cing. ln eight years he says the trees will all be in bearing. At the end of thirty years he estimates that the trees would be worth $5 each, or $1,250 per acre. He thinks the laud should be ploughed and mauured preparatory to planting the walnuts, and the latter plant- ed about the same depth ascera. Plant with the bull on jast as they drop from the trees, The young trees he says should be eultivated for a few years. Altheugh there may be no immediate return, yet the land coutinually increases in value and becomes a rich and inheritance for the generation to come after you, These details seem to come from one having seme knowledge of the subject. We give them for what they may be worth, and they seem to as worthy of the attention of land owners, - Re ae eee ee Dezexvors, the leading straightout Republican over in Virginia, says the Charlotte Observer, insists that the way fur the Republicans to succeed is to have one and the same Republican party for every section ; not a party for the North and aaother for the Suath. Mr. Dezen- dort is right in his farts; there are twe Republican parties—at the North i: is eve thing and at the Suuth quite another. But he Js very w rony iu his notion that wuder any circumstances that party could make headway at the South.

I tried a@ great many liniments which failed to benefit the injured part.

In twenty-four hours the part that was hard became soft and the lameness began to leave. I then got some of “Kendall's Spavin Cure” and ap- plied it according to directions, which has madea rfect cure, and the colt is now as sound as any orse alive. I merely write this letter to you, as I think it a duty I owe to you. and also for the good | of the public at large. - The foregot statement I will affidavit to, and can also have the same verified by the best horse- men in our city who saw the colt before and after treatment.

The aggregate re- tarned to this office was $68,072,338.99. Respectfully, H. C. Rogers, Dep’y Com’r. It will not bea denied, I presume, that the law imposing the tax on raw cotton was unconetitational, and that therefore the collection of said tax was illegal. 1 propose at the proper time to submit a petition to Cougress,—sigued I could wish meee poor white man and negro ia the land—praying that honorable body for a distribation to the ex-slave States, pre rata, of the whole amount of money coutained in the official figures above mentioned, to wit: $63,072,388.99, and to be applied exclusively to negro coloniza- tion. Inasmuch as the cotten so taxed was grown chiefly by slave laber, this money can, with great propriety, be ap- propriated for so divine au object. This is only one of the many ways and means by which we may aid colonization. Sume time in the near future, should my bealth improve, I hepe to be able to demounsirate this subject clearly.

It was forty feet frout, torty-five feet deep, with a height of fifty-two feet to the centve of the gable. Ite weight was estimated by measure- ment to be between 500 and 550 tons.

From the Charlot.e Ovuserver. Mr. Edward Atkineon, of Boston, in reply to a question as to the cause of the prosperity of the New England States, said ; “You want to know the secret of New England’s prosperity ? Well, itis not iu her large facturies. They are well enough but they are but the cause of our wealth vor the basis of our prosperity, You must look for that in oar small indus- tries. You must goin our ceurts and alleys, and go uapin the upper stories where skilled wen are doing work on little articles. That is the basis of oar prosperity.” What seem to be small industries are sometimes really great industries. It is a fact not generally known that many of these small industries draw a very large portion of their material from North Carolina. Hundreds of thousands of spokes, hab timber, bows, wheel rims, &c., are avnaally shipped from factories iu this State North to be used in the building of wagons, carriages, buggies, &c., many of which are shipped South avd sold at a handsome prefit. Why could net these wagons, carriages, bag- gies, &c., be made just as well here where pearly all the material for them is furnished, and where all the material necessary can be found ? Large quantities of walnat lumber, maple aud other timbers are anvaally shipped North to be used in the manafac- tare of faruitare, much of which is ship- ped back and sold in the South. Why could not this lamber be eonverted into furviture here ? Thousands of cords of dogwood and persimmon,are cut inte block of suita- ble size and shipped to New England an- nnally to be shaped icto lasts, bobbins and shuttles to supply the demands of manufactures North and South. Why could not this timber be worked into shape here as well as there ? Some years ngo we met an agent of a maonfactarivg establishment from New England whose busivess was to hunt up and to bay young white hickory which was cut into strips of the desired size and shipped to Connecticut to be ased in the manufacture of bows for archery cluds, — re ee I kl ial the factory which he | employ ing several handred hands in the making of these bows which were shipped all over the world. Why could not these bows be made here as well ns. there f Theee are but a few of the items of the raw material shipped from this sec- tion to supply the demands of the smal! indastries of the New England States which do se mach to inerease the wealth and add to the presperity of those States. The North supplies as with vast nom- bers of articles used in every household the materiai for which is foand in abun- dauce all around us, aad every one of which ought to be made at home, thus not only giving empleyment to our peo- ple bat keeping oar money at home whieh now goes to enrich ether sectioiis. There is ne good reason why all the carriages, buggies, wagons, farm imple- ments, household articles, and ether things that come into daily use should not ‘be maunafactured at home, aud we will never be independent and prosper- ous as we should be until they are. Those things are called small indus- tries are only smallin name, they are great in resalts.

The anti-Batler papers iu Massachu- setts are cungratalating themselves that the defeat of Batler for Goveruvor was a trinamph of the ‘decent people” of that State whereupon the New York Sun dis- cusses thus: “What an appalling amount of inde- cent people there must be iu Massachu- setts! A commonwealth in which there are only some ten thousaud more good people thau bad people has little cause to rejoice over such a victory. How can the decent wen sleep o’ nights when they koow that the margin of decency is so regretably small? It is only “vc years ago that Den But- ler, aiter baving had his little fun with many Republican State Conventions, came out boldly and badly asa Demu cratic eandidate for Governor. Each particular hair of Massachusetts respecta. bility stood on end, and only returned :o its former silvertop quietade when the good pews was spread abroad that Toi Talbot of Billerica had beaten the Low- ell monster. Tuat year there were 134,- 725 decent men in the State aud 109,455 indecent men. The 10,152 men who vot- ed for Jolin Q. Adams were, we suppose, not good evough to be Repablicans and vot bad enough to be Butler men. So the Adams men may be left ont of the calcu- lation, and we may say that in 1378 the deeent wen of Massachusetts had a ma- jority of 95,290. Four years of ordinary time aud one year of butler have passed since tien, and now what kind of a showing «do the decent men of Massachusetis make? The Adams men have had to declare them- selves, and have become absorbed iu tlie deceut or the indecent ranks. The de- cent people of Massachusetts this year are only 140,000, and the indecent people are 150,000. In other words, the decent people have increased 26,000 in five years, or at the rate of 5,200 a year, while the indecent people have increased more than ' 40,000, or at the rate of more that 8,000 a year, This is why Massachusetts is iv a bad way. In a few years, at the natural rate of increase, the indecent people will greatly an@ hopelessly outuumber the decent people. The only remedy of the latter will be cmigration,a remedy which it will be remembered, has already been snggested by that eminent student of so- cial phenomena, Mr. G. F. Hoar. Iechabed, Ichabud! How have the mighty falled! The decent people of the ovee righteous Commonwealth cannot keep Thanksgiving day with more than a hollew pretevee of rejvicing. But let them keep Fast day with vigid solemnity, and abstain from bass ball aud all secular diversion ow that day. If figures dou’t lie, the indecent people, the common, ordinary people of Massachusetts, are coming in before long.” -.-——_— - A Peculiar System of Marriage. Life iv the Siberian mines, says the Pali Mall Gazeite, 's not such an altogeth- er vomitigated curse as popular imagi- nation pictares if. From some of the greatest evils which men elsewhere have to suffer, the convicts in Eastern Siberia are happily delivered. There is indeed marriage, but there is no courtship, nor need anv man complain that he is “mated toa savage” ora shrew. When a pris- oner wishes to get married, all he has to do isto send in au application to the overseer, who straightway allots him a wife.

We fail to find aus in it of special importance. He is nata- rally very sore over his defeat, and is piping hot about it. Well, he will have to cool his heels a long time waiting for the Old Dominion te restore him to favor. The only pvint of interest in his address is an avowal of his purpose to continue the fight against the Democratic party, and to go into the Republican party. He says: “I believe the Readjuster party will when it next meets in council unite cor- dially and t ly with our friends, State and national, and make conimon cause with them against the Bourbons, their aiders, counsellors and abettors, State and national, by whatsoever name they may be designated. “I repeat, therefore, that the struggle against bourbouism is to be renewed forthwith aud to the death, and as your chairman I call uponevery loyal Read- jaster in Virginia to rally to the standard and reforn to fight a new battle against their old Bourbon foe in the national campaign of 1834.”— News & Observer. - ——~-——— Bismark believes in astrology and has predicted the day and hour of his own death.

He paid no attention to man or horse, as [ rode and walk- ,ed all around him, inspecting him /minutely omall sides. At length, a tap of a switch on the grass near him ‘roused his ire.

A well- grown specimen will measure nearly | ‘or quite four inches from head to tail, while the thickest part of the body is as large as a broom stick, The body cousists (as in other spiders) of two segments or divisions (insects have | three), which we call ‘for short,” head and tail, though these terms are not scientifically correct. The head, which is covered with a tough shell, ends in front in a pair of huge jaws, placed side by side, the opening of the mouth being vertical instead of hori- zontal, as in the higher animals, At the lower extremity of each jaw isa long hooked tooth or fang, about the size and shape of the claws of a cat. When not in use, these are folded close under the bead, pointing back- |} ward; but when excited, the animal can throw them forward, at least to a right angle with the body, In addi- tion to those fangs, it has two jointed very long, near the stings, almost an iuch g, | | | end of the tail. | On each side of the pert we have ; called the head, are five legs, one of |which is usually curlee? up beside the }head, another directed forward, while }the others are used in walking.

The creature must have Leen stunned or benumbed with cold, fur he made vo hostile demonstrations. Much as this creature is dreaded, the writer has been able to learu of but very few authentic cases of its bit- ing a human being, and of only one in which the bite was fatal. ‘That one was a Mexican woman, who was bit- ten in Waller county many years ago while sleepi: g on the ground, It is supposed tho tarantula crawled into her epen haud, which she instinetive- ly closed upon feeling the hairy crea- ture, whereupon the latter instantly buried its fungs in the palm of* hea hand, and probably wounded a largr ‘The blow also severed | from ‘county of Charlotte, on the farm of | James A.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.—The com- missioner of pensions has sent the names of nine pension claim agents to District Attorney Corkhill fur pre- cing ex-confederate soldiers to file claims for pensivus and taking fecs from them. The papers in these cases make it evident that circulars have been sent through the South designed to create the besief that ex-confeder- ate soldiers can obtain pensions in some cases. It is believed that agents of the firms have visited some sec- tiens of the South to procure such applications, The whole affair is a fraud, as no such applications can be entertained, and the sole purpose of the agents is to prevail upon those they dupe to pay a fee, Witnesses have been summoned in these cases, If ex-confederate sol- in the South . . eo ’ . . man skin, it causes a most violent and {will send any circulars they many intractable form of erysipelas, and sometimes sloughing of the part to which the poison juices are directly Of this, the writer has had two cases in his own practice, and a third has lately occurred in the per- son of a prominent physician in Cen- tral Texas.

Prof. Wood's Lecture—Courtship of the Spider—Charaeteristics of the Male and Female. , Boston Advertiser. The lecture of last evening in the Low- , ell Institute course by’ Professor Wood, , dealt with the phenomena of spider life. He began with a humorous account of the courtship of the spiders. The female is . fiercer and much larger than the male. , There is peril to the latter in paying his addresses. “Love me or I die,” is not a phrase of poetry or sentiment with the male spider, but often a literal statement , of the tragical fact, and his usual experi- | ence is that he loses some ef his legs in the rebnffs which he receives. In one tribe of spiders the female is 1,300 times larger than the male. Accordingly, said the lectnrer, there is never any occasion among them to hold a wowan’s rights convention. The spider’s thread is iuua- merable small threads or fibers. One of these small threads has been estimated to be one 2,000,000th of the thickness of ahair. The spider spins three kinds of thread. One kind is of great strength, and of this the radiating or spoke-lines of the web are made. The cross lines or what a sailor might call the rattlins, are , finer, and are tenacious; that is, they | have upon them little specks or globules of a very sticky gum. These specks are pat on with even inner spaces. They are | set quite thickly along the line, and are what, in the first instance catch aud hold _ the legs or wings of the fly. Once caught in this fashion the prey is held secure by _threads flung oyer it somewhat in the , manner of the lasso. ‘The third kind of silk is that which the spider throws out in a mass or flood, by which it suddenly envelopes avy prey of which it is some- what afraid, as, for example, a wasp. A scientific experimenter once drew out from the body of a single spider 3,580 yards of thread or spider silk—a lengtha | little short of three miles. Silk may be woven of spider’s thread, aud it is more glossy and brilliant than that of the silk- | worm, being of a golden color. An en- | thusiastic etymologist secured enough of it for the weaving of a suit of clothes for Louis XIV. | | | <A little Norwalk boy got a sliver iu his foot, and a motion to poultice the wound made by his mother aud seconded by his grandmother, was carried in spite of his objections. He kicked and screamed and protested that he would not submit to any such indignity, but the majority against him was two to one, and the poullice was nade ready. Tt was arrang- ed that the grandmother shonld apply the poultice while the patient’s mother stood over him with a stick, with author- ee Eeesl ity and instructions to apply that also if he made the least show of resistance. When all was ready the youngster was placed on the bed aud operations began. As the hot peultice touched the boy’s foot he opeued Lis mouth to say some- thing, but his wother with thestick awed him to silence. Again the boy strove to wake himself heard aud again the up- yaised stick warned him to keep quiet. In a short minute the poultice was firmly in place, and the boy was tucked up in bed, there to remain until the medicine had done its work.

Thix season of religious assemblies in the State ealls to mind the peculiarly rev- erential position that the churches hold in North Carolina. Fifty years ago sach an assertion wonld have been superfiuons, or at least trite; but to-day it is very sig- nitieant. All protestant charches have within this generation constantly gained in membership and iv wealth, but in ma- ny parts of Christendom they have an- deniably lost something of their spiritaal power, or at least something of that uni- versal reverence in which they were for- merly held. Both in Eugland aud in the Northern and Western States, while the churches have constantly kept pace with the increase of population and the changes in living and in thinking, the voice of the skeptic has become loader, and ecclesias- tical orgaaizations have suffered more or less from “‘iiveralism” and from that teu- dency which »lways shows itself when spirituality begins to decay, to become rather social than religious organizations, But ft has pot been so in North Caroli- va, When we had no railroads and no cities there were itinerant old Methodist heroes that we ought to remember and to honor forever, who carried the gospel through rain or sunshine to small congre- gations far apart, and preached with the power of God rather than with the learn- ing of wen; when there were no churches strong in vambers, there were many of that of Baptist | generation preachers, who often walked from church | vigorvus to church to arouse that zeal by which ou generation has made go powertal a church, | and to save men’s souls at all hazards ; | long before onr sturdy Seotch had lost | fresh memory of their native dialect, Chere | wee men among them, brave iu holiness | whe did houor to the stern creed of John Knox; even when the infant colony first | began to feel the possibility of becoming | a nation, the Episcopal clergy compelled | a universal popular reverence that the) Mother Churcic in England liad already | begun to lose; when iu the carly history | of the State we were intolerant to many | things the majority ealled heresy, the | Romish reverence church compelled respect and | North from the beginning, the other churches, in Carolina; so, too, such for instance, as the Latheran, which | won or sent followers among our people, | veyer heard a seoffer in our borders.

C., July 22, 18§3. Dr. J, B. KENDALL & Co., Dear Sirs:—I purchased at Louisville, Ky., a very tine bred coit, and in ship- ping he got his hock badly hurt on the outsice of the | joint which caused it to swell three or four times | the natural size, which made him very lame. I tried | @ great many liniments which failed to benefit the |injured part. At last when disgusced, and ready to give up the colt asruined, | happenejtosee yourad- and thought I would give ita trial, I lirst applied the “Blister” to the hock which by this time had calloused, and to iny surprise found it worked likea charm. In twenty-four hours the pirt that was hard became soft and the lameness began lo leave. I then got some of “Kendall’s Spivin Cure” and ap- plied it according to directions, which has male a erfect cure, iui the coitis now as sounl as any orse alive. I merely write this letter to you, as I think it a duty I owe to you, and aiso for the good of the public at large. The foregoing statement I will affidavit to, and can also have the same verified by the best lorse- men in our city who saw the coit before and after treatment. Very Respectfully, 12 Chapel St. JOUN R, AKNOLD. Belmont N. H., July 25, 1883. Dr. B. J.

KENDALL’S SPAVIN CURE. Modesto, Cal, Aug. 9th, 1882. B. J. Kendall & Co., Gents :—Before coming to this coast, and while at home, in Longmeadow, Mass., I had occasion to observe the benefits resulting from the use of your Kendall’s Spavin Cure. My brother had a young horse which developed a bone spavin which he cured and at the same time removed the enlargement. A Mr. A. K. Mathews also cured a valuable stallion of a spavin, as well as another ac- quaintance by the name of B. Combs, both of which came under my personal observation, being in my own town, and a gentleman wiih whom 1 was well acquainted, andin the interest of the horsemen in this vicinity I offer this my experience.

The figures of the manufactures of the South may not seem great to a New Eng- land or a Pittsburgh capitalist, but that the South should be able to make any- thing like such au exhibit is amazing when one considers how recently that part of the country was almost exclusive- ly given over to agriculture, and that almost entirely in one staple. Many iron furnaces have lately beev closed in Penn- sylvauia that will vever open agaip, aud the capital that ran them is reappearing in Virginia and Alabama. The extent of the revolution that is thus being accom- plished is as yet unappreciated by the country. ea ee An Exposition at Asheville. On the 24th a meeting will be held here to consider the subject of hacing an exposition here.

The decorations on land and water were elaborate though much bedraggled stars and stripes predominated but the flags of nearly all the nations of the earth were to be seen at intervals. Places of busi- ness were closed aud the entire popula- tion of Manhattan and Long Island gave themselves up to the enjoyment of the patyiotic occasion. Points of historic interest were surrounded by crowds avx- ious to recall the scenes of the day when the British withdrew from the American shores and independence was really made secure. President Arthur and Governor Clevelaud aud staff had their headquar- ters at the Fifth Avenue hotel. Other dignitaries from other States were also present. Included among these were the governors of the original thirteen States. The display of military was fine. Se Turgenieff’s Enormous Brain, The brain of Turgenieff is said to have weighed 2,012 grammes. The average weight of the human brain is 1,390 graim- mes. ‘Turgenieff’s is said to be the heav- iest which has yet been weighed. Cuv- ier’s brain is said to have weighed 1,800 gramines. There are many cases in which av extraordivary intellect has accompan- ied a heavy brain, but men whose men- tal superiority is undoubted by both friend and foe had often brains under the average weight. The cast of Raphael's skull shows that it was smaller than the average British skull; Cardinal Mezzo- tanti’s head was but of the average size ; Charles Dicken’s head was rather smaller than the average; Lord Byrou’s head was remarkably small; Charles did not come upto the Lamb's average weight ; and it iv well known that at the deatb of Gambetta his brain was found to be smaller than that of an ordinary Parisian ouvrier. ee ee The remarkable mildvess of the weath- er carries desolation to the hearts of clothicers and coal dealers ; but poor peo— ple do not complain. j moved they be discharged. From the Raleigh News Observer, All the fowls are not dead yet, and there seems to be unusual vitality among them iu Peuns,lrania. The latest de- velopment iu that department of nature, is one William P. Suyder, who last year was employed by the department of Justice to help out in the South Carolina political trials. In April last Attoruey General Brewster wrote him, “‘dispen- sing with his services,” and Mr. Suyder’s employmeut ceased. But to Ive on auknown to fame did not suit the aepi- rations of Snyder. He doubtless be- thought him of mauy methods of getting his uame in the dispatches, and tivally adopted the plan of writing a letter. Forthwith, therefore, on Novvember 2ist, six months after he had ceased to draw his pay as an assistant attorney of the United States, he indited a letter of resignation as follows: “Sir: Thereby tender my resignation as special United States attorney aud ask that my relations with the department of Justice, so far as prosecutions of per- sons for violating the elective franchise in South Carolina are coucerned, be en- tirely aud immediately severed. Duty to my friends, to my tamily and to myself compeis me todo so, I am too young to be killed, too honest to mislead, too proud to be misled, and too patriotic not torebel. The department of Justice has treated me kindly, and if I can serve it hereafter in any capacity other than the one which made me a slave, and which I hereby relinquish, 1 will be glad to do it.” That wasalittte too much even for Brewster. We doubt not that the aged Attorney General smiled all over at the suggestion that “Snyder was too young to be killed,” for it would) seem that he Was exactly the right age if a fool killer had been convenient. At any rate the department hasted to reply, as follows: * “The Attorney General directs me to say that he has received your silly letter, dated 2st iust. at Allentown. In it you tender your resignation as special assis- tant to the United States attorney for the district of South Carolina. You know very well that such resignation is un- necessary, fur you are not, and were not at the time you wrote that letter, a spe- cial assistant to Mr. Melton, the United States attorney, for, upon April 24th, 1883, the department of Justice sent you notice to that effect.” But pray why was such such a silly fel- Lost CONFIDENCE.-~-New Orleans, Nov. 24.—Aftter the grand jury was called District Attorney Finuey He said he ineaut no reflection upon avy individual member, but had beard on the streets more about the working of the jury room than be could learn in the court building. The public he said had lost confidence in the grand jury as a body, and that he shared that feeling. Judge Luzenburg there- fore discharged the grand jury without that the grand jury in the Kate Towns- end murder trial stood divided as to the question of murder or manslaughter, had something to do with the action of the officials in having them discharged. Judge Luzenburg will select another grand jur) ,vwd the Sykes Townsend mu - der case wil be pessed upon by them. —- —— Presiden Arthur’s cabinet is thus de- scribed by a writer in the Troy Times : “Brewster is the most punctilions mem- ber, Frelinghuysen the most aristocratic, Lincoln the quietest, Gresham the ablest, Folger the most judicial, Teller and Chandler are the two who keep track of ers.” The attendance of Roman Catholic the space of three years. A law also exists obliging cardinals not to leave the Eternal city withovt notifying the Pope. The former regulations leads to a special- ly large congregation of bishops at Rome at this time, and the latter having been ignored by Cardinal Hohenlohe is the cause of lis disgrace in the eye of the Pope. Gen. Haneock is to be congratulated upen having won his long pending suit against the proprietor of the St. Cloud lhotel, New York, fora valuable lot of i jewelry which was stolen from him in the winter of 1876, while he and his’ wife were residing at’ that house. The value lof the property was about $4,000, and \the question now finally settled in the suit is that a hotel proprietor is liable for losses thus accruing, whether the loser be a transient guest or regular boarder, whenever he fails to keep notices posted | that for the security of their valuables guests must deposit them in the hotel safe. Five hundred Norwegians aud Swedes from Illinois and Wisconsin, who came tu this country as imigrants many years ago, left Chicago for New York Thurs- day to return to their native laud.

M.&i ANCIENT Pottery.—In the fields just above Flemming’s ford on the Catawba river, Which have been in cultivation for more than a hundred years, quantities of broken Indian pottery may be found at this day. Erom fragments which we have seen, we would suppose that these vessels were large, probably containing several gallons andthe outsides were curiously marked in various patterns and covered with hieroglyphics. This pottery those prehistoric ‘burial mounds” was erected by a race long forgotten, in memo. ry of the fallen heroes of some unrecor- ded battle. The river valleys were always selected as the site tor the crec- tion of these rude monuments, and many of them may still be fouud on the banks of the Catawba aud the Yadkiu. MARRIED.

For years past I have’ scen yand knewn them to cure and relieve the | most obstinate and distressing cases ot }rhcumatism, kidney complaint, bronchitis, }neuralyia, lumbayo, inflamation of the liunus and throat, paralysis, asthma, spinal weakness, and coughs and colds. In my own case they afferded me almost instant and permanent relief. My fricads consider them an invaluable and speedy remedy ic. all kinds of aches and pains, They are u blessing in disguise; and no wife or mother should be without them if she values her peace and comfort and freedom from ner- vous exhaustion and other ai!ments. As a strengthening plaster, also for backaches and weakness, they have no equal. I have never yet found a plaster so efficacious and stimulating, or to give so much general sat, isfaction. Used in cannection with Bran DRETH'S universal life-giving and life-heal- ing Piiis, no one need degpair of a speedy restoration to good sound health. MRS. E.

R.F, Aarmfield fora number of public ducuments, among which is a report missioner of Agricuitnre, by a Com- mittee of the National Academy of Science,” at the head of which is the name of B. Silliman, M. D. &c., Prof. of Chemjstry, Yale College. It isa closely printed book of 152 pages, aud coutains a report of thou- sands of analyses by different chem- ists in thig country and France, and information of all sorts of the various sorghum plants, in all the various stages from full growth to full matn, rity, A very condensed review of the book would occupy many col- uinps in this paper, and though not withpnt interest to the general reader would nut be very profitable. We present, however, as the most accep ta- ble of its contents, the folluwing SUMMARY. The facts relating to the economi- cal production of crystallizable canc- sugar ona scale profitable to the farmer wack ianufacturer, from sor- ghum iu this country, so fur as de- veloped “by the existing state of laboratory and field practice, appear to the Commiliee to beas follows, Viz; Ist. That these plants develop at maturity, and when the seed is ripe, a maximum of cane sugar and a twijn- imam of glucose, 2d. ‘Phat the maximum of cane sugar ju soryghym Juices is found as- suciated with about one-tenth its weight of grape sugar (glucose), and bot far from one-fifth its weight of “solids not sugar,” viz, ash, gum, chlerophyll, albumen, wax, aconiti¢ acid, &e. 9 ‘senge of cunning. ests, or clinsbing trees, and some by going into deep caves or holes; but none, save the jack rabbitor bare, is placed out on the open country, with nothing to depend upon bat speed and crafiiness. But nature has coup- led with the speed of the hare a fine As a rulethe hare does not resort to craftiness unless driven to it, and one who haz not greyhound, or the scent of the har- rier, has no idea of the little tricks and stratagems it will resort to. Somo fifteen years of close observa- tion haye taught me much of the habits of the hare, and still never a season passes that I do not discover something in its habits that was nev- er before observed by me. | Its habits of feeding and its modes of secking its resting place, which are all dependent on the weather and season, are as variable as the wind, and it is a fact that its form or nest is always changed with the wind. The jack rabbit is also guilty of many pranks that cannot be account- ed for. Fer instance, a certain prai- rie may be one day entirely destitute of asingle rabbit, while on the fol- lowing day you may find the usual number, But, asa general thing, they change from high to low ground, or from field to prairie, as the weath- er or supply of food is altered. Its fuvds are various ; sometimes the roots of tender sprouts and grasses, at other times it will be seen standing upon its hind legs nipping the top- most.leayes. It is subject to dropsy, und by some this is asserted to be caused by eating a weed which is the growth of certain wet or dry seasons. If this is the case the weed must be growing continually, asthe hare is subject to dropsy all the tine and in every variety of ground and season. lu regard to this disease, which I am of the opinion is the only one attacking the jack rabbit, there is room for mach discussion. Suffice it to say that out of many causes to which its origin is attributed, I find none which is authenticated or made Od. That after maturity the rela tive amotnts and proportions of the, cliet factors vary but little, even for | mouths or more, provided the season does not change ;| early maturing variety of | sorghum holds its‘own until frost; a} ater variety has a shorter period, 4th, That while working varieties of sor | rapidity of | growth and time of reaching maturi- ty, in size, weigut, and consequent | yield per acre, it appears that all va-! rievies of sorghum resemble each oth. | . . | the same conditivns, nearly the same! | Maximum percentages of cane sugar, glucose, and solids, maxima the cane sugar | varying from 14° to 16 per | cent. of the total weight of the cx: pressed juice, the other factors being | as stated ander 2d, | dth., The suil best adapted to aa growth of a goal crop of sorgham for sugar appears to be a sandy loam. | This plant thrives on svils and in climates too light and dry for maize, | and makes the best) “stand”? when grown closer than Indian corn admits ina given locality, 6th. While good sirup may be prodaced from sorghum as a domestic | industry and on a limited scale over a very wide range of country, the ay cessit production of crystallized sugar | on a commercial scale appears to de- mand tbe skill and appliances of a sugar house conducted in a systematic manner and with ample capital, Tim. Phe best results in sugar are | when the ripe cane is manufactured ou the same day (twen- ty-four hours) in which it is cut from the field. 8th. ‘Lhe seed of ripe sorghum isa valuable feed crop, comparable for fattening animals with maize, and in product is equal to from 2} to 4 bushels per tou of cane. Yih. About 40 per cent. of the juice of sorghum is lost iu tne be- gassc, as it to nearly the sane exteut in tropical sugar cane, more than one-half of which loss may passibly be saved to the crop by under investigation, 1Qch. Of other residuel prdducts, the scum and sediment, rich in vari- vus elements of fertility, are thrown uway. The begasse, when treated by a pulping machine, gives a yaluable paper stock, Treated as a fertilizer, the begasse will return ta the soil a portion of what the plant has borrow- ed from it in its growth. In regions where fuel is dear the begasse can be used with advantage as fuel. process's LOW a Texas Jack Rabbit, From the Texas Farm and Ranch. To a person riding over the broad prairies of Texas, and seeing many hundreds of these litthe animal:, it would seem that but a few words would describe the traits und peentia- rities of this swift footed and peca- liarly gifted creature—I say yifted, because nature has not eadowed any other animal with fiver means of de- fense, nor where such means can be better used, than the hare. The cunning of the fox, the fierce- ness of the cat tribe or the endurauce of the wolf does vot equal the man- which the hare will evade its pursuers when an opportunity avails itself, Nearly every other auimal which nature has given to mau for sport, has diferent meius of defense to resort to. Some save themselves true by an extensive observation, My own idea—which I have only arrived at lately, after having exam- ined many animals thoroughly—is that itis caused by something eaten in the shape of au egy, either of a fly or jusect of some kind. ‘This egg may have been deposited on its food or on the body of the animal. At any rate the disease originates in the rab— bits inside, and not on the outside, und in every case will be found a cluster of something which is evi- dently the germ or starting point of the disease, and which eularges to euch an extent that in some instances the animal is overbalanced in moving. Pie discase, ina tangible form, is found in the inside of nearly all old hares, seldom attacking a young one, und takes several years to destroy the animal, if hawks or wolves do not make foed of it sooner. A young hare or leverett is consid- ered quite an edible dish by those who kuow how to cook it, but is not used so much in this country as in England, where they prize it highly. The German population in: some parts of Texas, are the greatest ene- mies that peor puss has, as they will kill from twenty to thirty a day, shooting thea dowa as they rise and net allowing them as much chance for their lives us hunting with the grey- hound does, The best ranning hares are found upon the open prairie, where they hever attain the size of those living in the fields or gardens. They fre- quently lide in the grass and weeds, though T have never known buat one to go iv abole and in that instance it Was a post hole on the prairie. Our hares have larger ears than the Euglish hare, and are somewhat ligater iu colur, but are about the sume in other respects, except in their power of speed aud endurance, in which I am informed they are supe- rior to the English, W.

BS Pale Mt. Vervon, Nov. 1883. From the Rowan School Times. Home and Its Influences upon Civiliza- tion. My subject is home. If my writing | could be as good as my subject, it would | believe there are three things of uni- versal interest among mankind. Moth- er, home and heaven. In all ages and ered word. It has laid on the heart of love to think of mother, of her wateh- ful care, her tender vi and her un- fading and undying love. It is to her our souls turn for comfort and consola- tion, when wearied with the unhallow- ed toils of earth. i] G18, love its mother. Not in angels’ hearts beats a sweeter, richer, dee per feeling. Not all the theologians in the world can convince me that the natural moth- er-heart is not holy. Though she may be: wicked in other respects, in her ma- ternal heart lives a germ of the tree of life which can never wholly die. All mothers are alike. The wise and the foolish, the idiotic and philosophic, the rich and the poor, the cultivated love. The same beautiful, tender, for- viving spirit of devoted affection, dwells in all. Behold the loving mother as she gazes fondly upon her child, as she watches by his sick couch, as she counsels him to virtue und goodness, she weeps over his waywardness, and toils for his happiness. moral world bows in reverence before a mother’s love. Take mother out of home and home is gone. Heaven is an- other word of universal use and power. In every human heart there lives an idea of heaven—dim and shadowing sometimes, bright and glorious at others. The Arab wanderers, the wild men of the forest, the South Sea Islanders, the black Ethiopian, the cultivated Chris- tian, all cherish the thought of heaven a home all that wearies and troubles. It seems as though God in goodness has implan- ted this hope in the hearts of mankind, as the germ of eternal life, to cheer them in the shadowy hours of earth and time. Thus we see that mother, home, and heaven convey a blessed trinity of ideas in one glow of spiritual beauty. They eet of the same golden whole. as are T being, the more important and interest- ing is home. ‘The Arab may care little for his home, but the Christian man of cultured heart, finds “no place lke home.” For he knows home is the planting yround of the seed of morali- ty. the garden of virtue and the nurse- ry of religion. He knows that souls immortal are here trained for the skies; that private worth and public character are made in its sacred retreats. * Mort.” _ _-—_- -—- All who would study with advantage in any art whatsoever, ought to betake himself to the readipg of some = sure and books oftentimes over ; for to read many books produceth con- certain LUKE BLACKMER, Octaber_ 23d, 1883. aie rather than learning, like as those who dwell everywhere are ad anywhere at home.

N. C., MORMONISM. Who Has Been in Utah. The Mermon question has been dis- press for the last few years, and it is noticeable that the further away the writer is from Utah, or the less be knows about the subject, the more ready is he to make assertions which have only a grain of truth for a basis, and upon which be proceeds to erect a chimerical argument. The writer of this article spent some time in Salt Lake City last August, and a part of the time was the guest of Gov.

Whjle we remained there our eyes were wide open and our bearing was yood, First: The Eastern idea of Mor- monism is that every follower of Brig- | ham Young must have half a dozen | wives. The very reverse true. Possibly not one married man in fifty has more A second 18 than one wife. | Wife can only be married upon the | consent of the first wife. After the first wife (and this is applicable to all subsequent wives) has given her con- sent for her liege lord to take another “rib,” the applicant for polygamy must go before certain rulers and el- ders in the church and make an afh- davit that he is able to the new family which he proposes to take care of start, and that affidavit means a good deal in Utah, for it must be veritied by a confmittce appointed for that purpose, after which, if the ‘ are satifactory, the new wile is brought into the “Vemple,” and in the pres- ence of a large congregation she ts “sealed to the man of her choice.

If we will go back far enough to get conscience out of the way, we do not have trouble in getting converts to any religion that grants wholesale in- dulgencies in this life and absolute immunity from punishment in the next. The Mormons are a_ priest-ridden people. Most of them are ignorant, and it is the purpose of the leaders to keep them so. Their system of church government is pecaliar. Church ang State are one. The power that rules the one rules the other, and the rule of the State includes-the rule of mu- nicipalities and cofuties aswell. ‘The church is governed-by twetve elders, | who call themselves the apostles of God.

As soon as a child begins to lisp its first broken sentences its education should begin. Habits are. formed which will exist toa greater or less degree throughout life. Such being the case, the conversation of the ol- der members of the family should be carefully guarded, lest the little ones hear aud learn, ungrammatical ex- preseions and slang, which, sad to say, is so rife among our young people of the present day. The servants, with whom children spend much of their time, should be chosen with reference to this matter. A mother should feel it her duty to pint out any grammat- ic mistakes made by them, and insist upon their language being correct, re- spectful, and devoid of slang at all times. It is exceedingly difficult to break children of habits once formed, and care in this direction will save much trouble and annoyance. Oue way to cultivate the use of language, | § and at the same time to learn of the occupations and companions of her children, is fur the mother to encour- age the daily narration of what they have seen, heard, and enjoyed, and telling of their little experiences. The study of pietures, moreover, in which every child delights, may be used as dren always love to louk at pictures, and can almost always be induced to talk about them.

KENDALL & Co., Dear Sirs:—I purchased at Louisville, Ky., a very fine bred colt, and in ship- Pas he got his hock badly hurt gn the outside of the joint which caused it to swell three or four times the natural size, which made him very lame. I tried a great many ljniments which failed to benefit the injured part. At lastwhen disgusced, and ready to give up the colt as ruined, I happened to see yourad- vertisement of ‘“‘Kendall’s Blister and Spavin Cure,” and thought I would give ita trial, I first applied the “Blister” to thé hock which by this time had calloused, and to my surprise found it worked likea charm. In twenty-four hours the part that was hard became soft and the lameness began to leave. I then got some of ‘Kendall's Spavin Cure” and ap- plied it eater {@ directions, which has made a Tfect cure, and the colt is now as sound as any orse aljye. I merely write this letter to you, as I think it a duty I owe to you. and ajso for the good of the public at large. The foregoing statement I will affidavit to. and can also have the same verified by the best horse- men in our city who saw the colt before and after treatment.

Inu Montgomery county the Coggins wine, operated by Ex-Sheriff Loftin, of Thomasville, a new body of ore was found early in November, from which sev- eral successful runs were made, with satisfactory results; avd as the ore is abundant, though of a low grade and ea- sily treated, it should continue toa nice margin of profits.

Wasuixerton, Dec. 3.—House.—Long before the hour of noon the galleries of the House of Representatives were filled with 8 to witness the opening scenes of the forty-eighth Congress. The new upholstering the desks of members, the bright colors of the carpeting of the chamber and the baskets of flowers dis tributed here and there throughout the hall, served to enliven the scene, while on the floor political feeling being laid aside fur the time, friendly greetings and merry conversations were the order of the day. Now and then predictions might be heard as to the result of the battle in 1884, and a few speculations were iudulg- ed in as to the probable chairmauships of the more important committees of the House, but aside from this the conversa- tions were of a social and von-political character. As the flour was being clear- ed of strangers, some little excitement was occasioned by the obstinate refusal of “Cal” Pinchover, a notable character in Washington, te vacate a seat in which he had ensconsed himself. Blackburn, of Kentucky, however, succeeded in over- coming his objectious and leading bim from the chamber. At precisely 12 o’clock clerk McPher son took a staud at the clerk’s desk and rapped the house to order, and proceed- ed to call the roll of Representatives elect. The Stato of Mississippi having been reached, the clerk said he wished to make a statement as to his failure to put upon the roll the vame of any Represen- tative elect from the second district. The reason for this was that no paper which could be cousidered a certiticate of elec- tion in the sense of the law had been presented to him. Chalmers had filed four exhibits in support of bis claim for a seat, but neither individually nor col- lectively did these exhibits afford the clerk of the House sufficient authority for the evrollment of Chalmers. If the Gov- ernor of Mississippi had issued a certifi- cate of election to avy ove it bad not been presented to the clerk. In regard to the First District of North Carolina, the clerk stated that he had not received the certificate of the election of the successor of Walter R. Pool, who died in August last. The roll call disclosed the presence of 316 members. The nomination for Speaker being then in order, Geddes, of Ohio, said: ‘I nom- inate for Speaker of the House for the forty-eighth congress, Hon.

I promise you, however, to devote to your service all the zeal and ability of which I am possessed. Gentlemen, the maintenance of order on the floor is esseutial, abso- lutely essential, to the intelligent and | systematic transaction of the public busi- ness, and I earnestly invoke your aseis- ‘tance in the enforcement of the rules |adopted for the government of our pro- ceedings. “The large addition to the membership of this house resulting from the late ap- portionment of representatives makes this duty even more difficult than it has been before, aud without your cordial co- operation and support I cannot reasona- bly hope to discharge even the ordinary | daily duties of this office. That you will cheerfully co-operate with me in every proper effort to preserve order and to facilitate the business of legislation I have no doubt; bat, gentlemen, I shall ask something more of you than mere co- operation in the discharge of my duty, assuring you of my earnest desire at all times to be just and impartial. Still 1 cannot expect to avoid mistakes, and shall be compelled, therefore. frequently, | no doubt, to rely on the friendly torbear- }ance of gentlemen on both sides of the | house. “Tam sure, gentlemen, thay all mat- ters of legislation presevted during this congress will receive from you such care- ful consideration as the magnitude aud character of the iuterests involved re- quire, aud that your action upon them will be wise, conservative and patriotic.

Converse, of Ohio, rising to a question of privilege said that the clerk of the House this morving had stated that had the certificate of the Governor of Missis- sippi been presented to any person claim- ing to be a representative from the sec- oud district of that State he would have placed his name on the roll. For reasons which were satisfactory to Mr. Manning, he had chosen not to present that certifi- cate until action had been taken by the House. He (Converse) had called upon Manuing’s attorney and asked permission to present Manning’s credentials ‘to the House. It had been the policy of the House by an unbroken train of precedents to seat the member who held the certifi- cate of the Goverpor. He asked to have the certificate read. Keifer, of Ohio, said that Manning had never accepted the certificate. He had put on the clerk's file a statement which showed that he was beaten by 980 votes. He had also in effect stated that he would not ask to be seated on that certificate. Did the gentleman propose to force Man- ning to do what he would not do himself? Converse replied not only that Man- ving held the certificate, and was prima facie entitled to the seat, but upon a con- test it would be shown that he was entit- led to it upon the merits of the case. The certificate was read, and after a discussion over the right of the Kepubli- caus to demand the reading of the other papers on file in the clerk’s office, Cuu- verse offered a resolution reciting the fact that Van H. Manning holds the cer- titicate of the Governor of Mississippi, aud providing that he be immediately qualified as the member frem the second district of that State, without prejudice to the final right to the seat. Kasson, of lowa, doubted whether the House had a right to order a man who did not claim his seat to be sworn in, to which Converse replied that Manning did claim his right to the seat. ‘The previous question was ordered on the resolution. Ycas 162, nays 128. Caalkins, of Indiana, offered a resolu- tion providing that the certificate of the Governor of Mississippi certifying the electiou of Manning to this Congress from the second district of that State, together with the certificate of the Secretary of State and all other papers in the hands of the clerk of the House touching the right of Chalmers to the seat be referred to the committee on elections, when ap- pointed, with instructions to that commit- tee to report without delay which of the parties, if either, is entitled, prima facie Pending action the House at 3:40 ad- journed after adopting a resolution that the daily hour of meeting shall be 12 o'clock.

Last suminer General Sherman made his last annual juspection of the military posts of the army, aud a good story is told by one of his staff officers of his visit to one of the Western frontier forts. When the General arrived there was a large crowd of Indians on hand to look at the “Big Chief of the Whites,” as they called him. After they bad looked bim over to their heart’s content, one of them ‘approached aud said; “Ogh, big Indian heap want present of cannon.” Gen. Sherman glanced at the brave and te- plied; “I cannot give you cannon.

XV.—THIRD ‘SERIES hands of W, g. BLACKMER who will make The Wish Ring. A young farmer who was very uh- lucky sat on his plow a moment to rest, and just then an old woman crept past and cried: “Why do you go on drudging day and night without re- ward? Walk two days till you come to a great fir-tree that stands all alone in the forest and overtops all other trees, If you can hew it down, you will make your fortune.” Not waiting to have the advice re- peated, the farmer shouldered his ax and started on his journey. Sure enough, after tramping two days, he came to the fir-tree, which he instant- ly prepared to cut down, Just as the tree swayed, and before it fell with a crash, there dropped out of its branches a nest containing two eggs. The eggs rolled to the ground and broke, and there darted out of one a young eagle and out of the other rull- ed a gold ring. The eagle grew lar- ger, as if by euchantment, aud when it reached the size of a man, it spread then soaring upward, it cried ; “You have rescned me; take as a reward the riug that lay in the other egg; itis a wish-ring, Turn it o@ your finger twice, and whatever your wish is it shall be fulfilled. But re- member there is but a single wish in the ring. No sooner is that granted than it loses its power and is only an ordivary ring. Therefore, consider well what you desire, so that you may never hive reason to repent your choice.” So speaking, the eagle soar- ed high in the air, circled over the furmer’s head u few times, then dart- ed, like an arrow, toward the east. The farmer took the ring, placed it on his finger, and turned on his way homeward, Toward evening, he reach- ed a town where a jeweler sat in his shop behind a counter on which lay many costly rings for sale. ‘The far- mer showed his own, and asked the merchant its value, “It isn’t worth a straw,” the jew- cler answered, Upon that, the farmer laughed ve- ry heartily, and told the man that it Was a wish-ring, and of greater value than all the rings in the shop together. The jeweler was a wicked, design- ing man, and so he invited the farm- er to remain as his guest over night. “Por,” he explained, only to shelter aman who owns a wish-ring must bring luck.” So he treated his guest to wine and fair words; und that night, as the farmer lay sound asleep, the wioked man stole the magie ring from his fine ger, and slipped on, in its place, a common one which he had made to resemble the wish-ring. The next morning the jeweler was all impatience to have the farmer be- gone. He awakened him at gock- crow, and said: ‘You had better go for you have still a long journey be- tore you.” As soon as the farmer had departed the jeweler closed his shop, put up the shutters, so that no one could peep in, bolted the door behind him, and, standing in the middle of the room, he turned the ring and cried; “I wish instantly to possess a million gold pieces 1” No sooner said than the great, shin- ing gold pieces came pouring down upon him in a golden torrent over his head, shoulders and arms, Pitifully he cried for merey, aad tried to reach and unbar the door; but before he succeeded he stumbled and fell bleed- ing to the ground, As for the gold- en rain, it never stopped till the weight of the metal crushed the fleor and the jeweler and his mouey sank through to the cellar. The gold still poured down till the million was complete, and the jeweler lay dead in the cel- lar Leneath his treasure. The noise, however, alarmed the neighbors, whe came rushing over to see what the matter was; when they saw the man dead under his gold they exclaimed : “Doubly unfortunate he whom blessings kill.” Afterward, the heirs came and divided the pro- perty. In the meantime the farmer reach- ed home in high spirits and showed the ring to his wife. “Henceforth we shall never more be in want, dear wife,” he said. “Our fortune is made. Qaly we must be very careful to consider well just what we ought to wish.” The farmer’s wife, of course, prof- fered advice. “Suppose,” said she, ‘that we wish for that bit of land that lies between our two fields ?” ‘That isn’t worth while,’ her hus- band replied. ‘If we work hard for buy it.’ So the two worked very hard, and at harvest time-they had never raised such a crop befure. They had earn- ed money enough to buy the coveted strip of land and still have a bit to spare. the land and the wish as well,’ elhe farmer’s wife then suggested that they had better wish for a cow its wings as if to try their strength, | a year we'll earn enough money te ‘See,’ said the man, ‘we have trifles? The horse and cow we'll get aayway.’ ° re enough, in a year’s time the money for the horse and cow had been earned. Jvyfully the man rubbed his hands. ‘The wish is saved again this year, and yet we have what we desire. How lucky we are?” But now his wife seriously adjured him to'wish for something at last. ‘Now that you have a wish to be granted,’ she said, ‘you slave and tvil, and are content with everything. You might be king, emperor, baron, even a gentleman farmer, with chests overflowing with gold ; but yeu dou’t know what you want.’ , 2 a ‘We are young, and life is Jong,’ avewered. "erhece oaly Lae wiog in the ring, and that is easily suid. Who knows but sometime we may sorely| need this wish? Are we in want of anything? Have we not pros- pe “gil people’s astonishment, since this ring? rea- sonablé and: patient fura while. Ie the nreantime, consider what we real- ly ought to wlkp for.’ And that was the eu<d of the males It really seemed as if the ring bronght a blessing inte the. Graivaries and barns were @} over flowing, and imthe course of years the poor farmer became ar and portly person, wha worked witfi his men afield during’ the day, as if he, too, had to earn his daily bread ; but after supper he liked to sit in his! porch, contented and comfortable, and return the kindly\greeting of the folk who passed and wohed him a respect- ful good-evening. So the years went by. Sometimes, when they were alvne, the farmer’s wife would remind her husband of the magic ring, aud suggest many plans. Bat as, he always answered that they hail prenty of time, and that) the best thoughts come last, she more and more rarely mentioned the ring, aad at last the good.woman ceased to | speak of it ‘altogether. | the ring, and twirled it about as ma- | ny as twenty times a day; but he was | very careful never to wish. After thirty or forty years had pass- | ed away, and the farmer and his wife | had grown old and white-haired, and | their wish was still anuske??hen was | Gud very good to them, and on the! sume night they died peacefully and! happily. | Weeping children and grandchil- dren surround the two coffins ; and as one wished to remove the ring from the still hand as a remembrance, the oldest son said: ‘Let our father take his ring into the grave. There was ulways a mystery about it; perhaps it was some dear remembrance. Our mother, tov, so often looked at the ring—she may have given it to him when they were young.’ So the old farmer was buried with the ring, which had been supposed to be a wish-ring, and) was not; yet it brought as much good fortune inte the heuse as heart could desire.—Sé, Nicholas for October. et The Internal Revenue System. The New York Journal of Com- merce, a non partisan paper, in a lengthly and able editoral, takes strong grounds in favor of the abolition of the revenue system, from which we clip the following: Nie is the revenue likely to come short if the entire system is abolished, The debt will not be so rapidly re- duced, and a little economy may be suggested by a smaller surplus of funds in the treasury, but no one will be called apon to suffer from either of these results. The internal reve- nue fur the current fiscal year will probably be about ene hundred and twenty millions of doljars. It can all be apared to the great relief of all concerned, As long as this excise system is con- tinued the foot of the government is on the necks of the people. They are nene of them secure from domiciliary visits of armed men by day or night. The entire body politic is under con- stant espoinage throughout the year. Business of all kinds is watched and halted, and scrutinized by govern- ment officials in all the length and breadth of the land. A oonstant sur- veillance must be maintained lest il- licit whiskey or centriband cigars shall find their way to markct. Such relations between the officers of the government and the public cannot be maintained without leading to a general demoralization, Evasions of law not only become more aud more common, but because of the ive character of the oversight olve no less of reputation, and with them no seuse of shame. Defrauding the revenue no longer wears the brand of dishonesty, but is glorified as a virtue, since it is re- sistance (to an straint that has grown to be not only irksome but well nigh intolerable. The abolition of the system would practically settle the tariff quarrel for the next quarter of a ceutury. LUKE BLACKMER, October®e3d, 1883, :*Wile, why waste our wish og such and a horse.

Love which Can’t Wear a Bridal is Bad for the Bride. Why in the name of common sense do folks want to urge young people to marry on nothing? Every ether paper or mag- azive ove picks up contains an accarate estimate of the cost of living, and trying to persuade the young man with a salary of sixty dollars per months that he is ju @ position to warry. Without a home or any surety of keeping his present situation permauently, they would try to make the young man believe that the best thing he can do is to marry, provid- ed he can find a young lady so much in love withthim that she is willing to take the chances of having a home of two or three rooms this year, and next year to find even the money to pay for three rooms. What bosh, when not an en- lightened one of us would advise our sons and daughters te jump at such a fate! I read a flowery article in a pop- ular mouthly the other day, relating the experience of a youug couple who mar- ried without a home, the man earning sixty dollars a month. They rented three rooms and lived very comfortably, had beeu married four years, and advised other young couples to go and do like- wise. It is needless to say they had no children. Now that’s all very fine; bat young people, beware how you marry with the idea of never having any little ones, lest you find yourself most awfully surprised some day. Then woe to that sixty dollars per month, for it will melt like dew before the sun. Then, again this young couple we read about never got sick—(lucky couple)—no doctor bills to pay. Supposing thongh you should get sick young man, and consequently ho noney coming in; that would be a nice boat to be in about the first of the month, wouldn't it? Perhaps you might lose your situation, too—such things have happened before now. The young lady thinks in such a case she would4 work and earu money too. But what the young lady can do, the young wife’ with two or three children cannot. Is it not better to wait until the young man can provide a home? Then at least you can’t be turned out of doors. I think I hear some of those flowery writers say, ‘Why look on the dark side? If misfortnne comes true hearts will stand the test.” Well, yes, I think they will, but trae stomachs won't. Young woman and young man, test your true hearts by waiting until you havea home to. go to before marrying. If your love cannot stand that test, it could never survive the trials of a married life without a home.— Fr. --_- A Century AGo.—Just one hundred yeurs ago the British evacuated New York City. That was the last act in the drama of patriotism. Success had crown- ed the efforts of Washington, when the weleome pageant of England's retreating hosts brought joy to the bosoms of the ragged Continentals. Upon that auspi- cious day the new world was cousecrated tu liberty. ‘The hardy genius of Colum- bus brought the ends of the earth into with each other. The sublime virtues of Washington conferred the boon of freedom upon the new world the first link in the chain which is gradually encireliug the globe. What mighty changes a century has wit- nessed!

M. & B. From the Davie Times Anderson Poindexter died Nov. 21., at the home of his danghter Mrs. Martin, near Huntsville, N. C., aged 80. Fifty- five years ago Mr. Poindexter moved to West. Tennessee, where he lived until last year, wheu he returned with his wife who,atill survives him to this State. He was a prominent man in Tennessee, wasa surveyor in the first settling up of that conntry, and took an active stand in the political and social interest of that section. He served in the war of 1812. He was noted for his wouderful memory, even uptothe time of his death. He could repeat page after page acurately of authors he had read 50 years ago, especially iu history, and the few years before his death it was a great pleasure for him to do this, and to re- count many pleasant reminisvenses of the early history of this country. He had been married 63 years when he died, aud leaves his wife and a large circle of friends and relatives in all parts of the South and West to mourn his loss. The day he died, being in his usual health, he told his daughter that he was going to die, “that he would be dead by to-mor- raw, and that he wanted her to write some letters to friends iv the west.” She did so, writing for him four lesters, aud sure enough on the morrow he was dead. So the good man ata ripe old age, with all his labor done, gently and peacefully passed away. “‘So fades a summer cloud away: So sinks the gale when «(orms are u’er, So gently shuts the eve of day ; So dies a wave along the sliore,” -—_——_-_—- ~aeo --— -- Under certain circumstances it makes a man feel mean to have people give him a wide berth, but sémehow it never does when traveling on « steam boat.—Burling- ton Free Press.

Originally they were true milkers, bat management to- ward a different object has changed their daily standard. The proportion of cream is high, though low in specific gravity and quantity of batter from milk the highest of what is illustrated and possi- bly second only to the Jersey, which as ed has not been investigated thoroughly. ven in cheese the short-horn appears among the best. With this high average one might natarally e t similar char- acteristics by the use this breed with native cows, but the table shows no ad. vantage in richness, though a very large increase in quantity of milk and duration of the season. Prof. Brown consideis the short-horn grade the nearest approach to what is termed a general purpose cow. In duration of season and quantity of milk the Aberdeen poll is rot equal to the short-horn, with which it is compar- able as a beefer, and indeed it is the low- est of any in quantity ; yet by specitic fore the richest of all excepting the evon. No breed touches the Devon in regis- tering a high specitic gravity and weight of cheese from milk. Both are unusually high. The Devou is also a good average iv duration of milking, and for its size fair in quantity of milk. The Galloway made, iv Prof. Brown's experiments, one upusnal record as a milker—the 2 per cent. of cream, which is a low proportion—but he explains that the line between milk and cream was a very distinet one. Much cream stood be- low this line and always rose slowly, and much never separated from the milk; ev- idence of rich milk. The Ayshire, a heavy milker, long as well as deep, will give on au average five times her own weight of milk per season.

The Democratic party of to-day is the Democratic party of Jefferson, Jacksou aud Benton, stripped of false and tempo- rary inclivations borv of slavery, and it is now, asin the past, determined to apply in the administration of the gov- ernment the principles which gave that party power throagh nearly the whole period of the constitational rule iu this republic. It is therefore a party which is bound to deny the right of Con- gress to exercise’ ite sovereign taxing power with aview to the personal ad- vantage of privileged individuals or classes, and hence it cannot be at heart other than opposed to the monstrous system of tariff taxation which the Re- publican party imposed upon us under the plea of necessities of war and has maintained in time of peace for the bene- titof individuals and localities devoted to its supremacy. ‘The real question was, however, not so much asto the attitude of the Democratic party as the propriety or expediency of acknowledging that attitude. The question has been answered in favor of truth, honesty and straightforwarduess, and the step now taken cannot be retraced.

Thomas Marks the “Redmond” of Montgomery was arrested by Dep’t Mil- ton and a posse a few days ago for illicit distilling. Tom wanted to pnt on his Sunday clothes and kiss his wife and babes prior to his departure for Charlotte jail. He was at the mine bedragled with mud and arevuest so aeasovable could not well be denied him. Melton and posse attended him to his home, a log cabin with two doors, and an eighteen inch window in rearend. The winbow was closed and proped on the outside with a fence rail. He signed to his wife that the rail was a barrier to his freedom. The rail very promptly disappeared and Tom made his exit at the window leaving his captors to be entertained by his wife and little ones, or leave as suited them best: A nice little wedding came off at Flagg- town last Thursday, at 4 p.m. The par- ties were W.F.

Y. recent date, coutaining a test of the aif- ferent dairy breeds of cattle. It appears from this table of Prof. Brown’s that the large Short-horn, one of which will con- sume twice as mucli food as the Jersey during the year, is the only one of ten breeds and grades tested by the Professor, that will, as a dairy cow, produce any- thing like as much as the beautiful little Jersey. Now if the high-priced Shott- horn with ber large frame is not as pro- ductive as the Jersey cow. ‘There wust be a vast difference between the scrub cow of this county and the Jersey. You will notice the Professor goes ou to say that ‘allowing the average of 44 pounds of batter from 100 pounds of cream as iu our experiments, the Jersey would give $83 for butter at the ordinary price,” 20 cente per pound, I understand. Bat as Jersay butter is gold it would fetch $250 in place of $82. then that this may be the only class of prices tor ordinary use.” This section of country needs improved stock, and better treatment of stock.

The culture of wheat, he said, had gradually been driven westward, as was also that of corn und tobacco, be- cause of the exhaustion of the svil. At one time the cotton grower was extravagant in raising that product, throwing away the eutton-seed. A revolution, however, has occurred du- ing the past ten years, since the es- of agricultural! colleges, and the cotton-seed is now used for manure, as it contains phosporic acid, potash, lime, magesia, sulphuric acid, oxide of iron, chlorine, soda and sili- ca. In previous years, also, cattle were allowed to enter the fields after harvest time, and eat the stumps and refuse, which should be allowed to re- Now that the cotton-seed has been returned to the earth, crops can be raised upon the same land year af- By this return of the cot- ton-seed to the earth as manure, the growers of cotton in the South have au advantage over the growers of wheat and corn and tobacco cultiva- tors, because the latter are unable to ‘return much of the plant manure to the earth, consequently impoverishing It allows four members at large to The effect of this is adverse to ! it in time. Cotton is greatly made up of potash, lime and phosphoric acid, and as it is generally grown upon light sandy soil, which fails to retain these ingre- dients, the plants often feel the want of them. The farmers, however, dis- covered that by depositing a salty mud upon the land, this great trouble was remedied, Salts for this purpose are now being imported from Germany. The ingredients of raw cotton-seed make it valuable as a food or meul for animals, because of its cheapness, but they are not so well! balanced as wheat, corn and oats, Cotton-seed vil, when refined, is a pure, white, bland oil, a good deal like olive vil. The lecturer then explained the va- rious methods of refiuing this oil. The use of the oil, he said, is growing” every day, and it is now largely used in adulterating olive vil. ‘The cotton-seed manutue- turing millsdo not pay what the sced is worth, the usual price paid being $15 a ton. As farmers get to realize the value of cotton-seed cake, the price would probably increase. It isa question, however, whether it would not pay the farmer better to keep it. Cotton-seed mills are being rapidly constructed all over the South. What is wanted is cheap machinery to work cotton-seed upon farms. The speaker thought that a fortune would be realized by any ove who would in- machinery, The cotton plant has a very woody fibre, but, as hay, is quite equal to meadow hay.

She concealed her identity under the name of Miss Lizzie Lusenbeets. As there was no room for her in the house of her friends, she lodged at the louse of Dr. Dupre, next door, About a week ago Dr. Dupre, who had become convinced by the actions of his lody- er that she was the victim of the ch!o- ral habit, made the discovery that she was the wife of the Ex-Senator.

The professor has in view the stock- ing of all streams in the entire Ap- paluchian system with the choicest varieties of game fish. Thousands of persons who now an- nually visit these mountains to restore the weary brain and body will find a new delight in the additional attrac- tion thus afforded. ‘This system is the natural trout range of the United States east of the Mississippi and ex- tends from Georgia to Maine, eulmi- hating in North Carolina and Virgina. The influx into this region each sum- ! mer may only partially be imagined a few years hence with the increasing popalation and wealth of the United States. The step to add to its already varied interests will be warmly receiv- ed by the people of twenty States. For furthering this work a magnifi- cent hatchery has been established at Wytheville, Va., where nearly twen- ty thousand trout are confined as breeders. This is the most important step ever inaugurated with the fresh salmonide and is being pushed on a scale which has never been equaled and with great force.—dvews- Observer. $c —— Suntlit Rooms. —— From the Californian. No articles of furniture should be put in a room that will not stand sun- light, fur every room in a dwelling should have the windows so arranged that sometime during the day a flood of sunlight will force itself inte the apartment. ‘Lhe importance of ad- mitting the light of the sun freely to all parts of our dwellings cannot be too highly estimated. Indeed, per- fect health is nearly as much depend- ent on pure sunlight as it is on pure air. ded except when so bright as to be uncomfortable to the eyes. And dai- ly walks should be taken in’ bright A sunbath is of more im- portauce in preserving a healthful condition of the body than is gensral- ly understood. A suubath costs no- thing, and that is a misfortune, for people are deluded with the idea that those things only can be good or use- ful which cost money. But ber that pure water, fresh air, and suushine. sunlit homes kept free from dampness, | will secure you from many heavy bills of doctors, and give you health and vigor which no money can procure. It is a well established fact that peo- ple who live much in the sun are usu- ally stronger and mvore healthy than those whose occupations deprive them of sunlight. And certainly there is nothing strange in the result, since | the same law applies with equal force to nearly every anwmite thing in na- ture. It is quite easy to arrange an isulated dwelling so that every room may be filled with sunlight some time in the day, and it is possible that ma- ny town houses could be so built as to admit more light than they now receive. CHANGING THE TRACK OF TorR- NADOES.—F or propose the following : Taka one keg er barrel of common rifle or cannon | powder to the limit ef your city or town where it is approached by a tor- nado. Fix to it an artillery priming tube, having a string toit about 100 yards long. ‘Take your position at ihe end of the string, holding it taut. Wait till the tornado seems to be pre- cisely over the powder, then fire the powder by pulling the string, and if | the charge is large enough, that gyra- ting, whirling tornado will effectually blasted out of existence; at least, made harmless till blown beyond your town, where perhaps it will re- form itself.

They never injure the weakest female or the yoang- est child. One box is a medicine chest svffic- ing for a whole family. Suppose you have diarrhea; nature is making a great effort to get rid uf some irritating matter in the etom- ach or bowels. A dose of Brandreth’s Piils removes the matter and the disease is cured. In costiveness one good dose of Brandreth’s Pills, followed by one pill every night fora week ortwo, make the human machinery run as regular us clock work. In bad colds, where the pores of the skin are closed and the insen- sible perspiration throwpqgpon the blood, pois- oning the fountains of life and filling the nose, the throat and the lungs with choking mucus ; seven Brandreth’s Pills taken at night on an empty stomach, will restore the perspiration, break up the cold and purge away all the wa- tery secretions that should have passed off by the skin. Diphtheria, a family disease and a most dangerous one. is almost immediately enred by one of two doses of Brandrcth’s Pills, aided by a gargleof lime water. Rhumatism, which comes from too much acidity or too much alka.inity of the system, requires noth- ing but Brandreth's Pills and a few good sweats to make a perfect cnre. It is marvelous how they purify the blood, After two doses, the effect is seep in brightness al the eyes and‘clearness of the skin. All pim- ples and eruptions vanish like magic under the influence of this purifying purgative. We canpotstop the march of time with any medi- cine: but Brandreth’s Pills will remove the excessive lime from the system and prevent grey hair. They improve the sight and tone up the human body, so that the old man’s eyes will be undimmed and his natural force una- bated even afler seventy years. Best in the Werld.

The Champaign Sugar Works, Champaign, I\l., were the first large sorghum sugar works ever started in the United States. They have ground the cane this season raised on about 1,000 acres of land, and the result is a perfeet success in the way of makinga first class quality of sugar that polarizes 97 degress, and much aweeter than sugar made from cane or beet roots. For years experi- ments have been made to Gud out some way tochange sorghum sirup into sugar. The attempt was unsuc- cessful up te last year, when the State of Illinois offered a bounty to any one who would succeed in granulating the sirup into sugar. Experiments made at the State University of Illi- nois, Champaign, by Professors We- ber and Seovell, succeeded in accom- plishing the result. A ready gale is found for all the sugar and sirup made, and the success here will cause a large number ef sugar werks to be erected all over the West, for sor- ghum cane will grow where corn can be raised, and where farmers can make $16 an acre in raising cern they can realize $30 an acre in rais- ing sorghumeane to sell te these factorics, Tie result of this discovery is like- ly to wake as great a change in this country as the making of beet sugar has ia bhurope, where to-day two- thirds of uil the sugar in the world istace, Out of a tutal production of thrce million tons, France, Belg- ium, aad Germany produce two mil- lion tens.

Shortly after sunset, on November 27, 28, aud 29, the western sky pre— sentented a most peculiar aud striking appearance, the red light being in- teusely bright, almost dazzling, and reaching nearly to the zenith. The _ . al : | phenomenon was visible over a large ilgrimage, and before passing to another, and | part of the Northeastern States. Jue supposition is that the color resulted from vaporous strata in the higher regions of the atmosphere. Another is that it was due to reflec- tions from m:teoyic The New York Sun gives the following : A remarkable observation was made by Prof. Brooks, an industrious astronomer of western New York, on the evening of Nov. 28. While searching with his telescope for com- ets, he saw what he describes asa shower of telescopic meteors “near the sun.” Phis, of course, means that they were near the apparent placg of dust. the sun in the sky, and not literally near that beds, for the sun has al- teady set atthe time, and if what Prot. Brooks saw was really a meteor swarm, the meteors must have been in the upper regions of our atmos- phere. Sapposed flights of metcors sen through telescopes have occas- ionally turned out to be flocks of birds, but an observer as careful and experienced as Prof Brooks seems to be would not be likely to make such a mistake as that. Assuming then that he really did sce un extruordinary swarm of me- teors, and remembering that meteors, large enough to be visible without telescopes, aul some of great size and brilliancy, have recently been unusu- ally numerous, the suggestion that the red light seen in the sky for sev- eral evenings past Jong atter sunset may becaused by retleetion from clouds of meteoric dust in the upper portion of the atmosphere is not un- natural. There are several reasons for thinking that the strange light is the result of some such cause as the presence of meteoric dust rather than of differences of destiny iv the at- mosphere leading to extraordinary refraction. . Iv the first place, the phenomenon bas not only been visible ever an im- mense extent of territory, but it has lasted several «days, aud has been seen in the east before suorise as lathe west after sunset, so that any abnormal refractio. in the atwo-phere | would have to be of almost incredible 2. : islands of We} Cuba and Santo Domingo, Guatema- ee persisteuce in order to account for the observe! appearances. ee le atmncapherie Syaaaee 3, espe- Thave resierketlesaheet s have also been aonocspated by a notably hazy appearance y: : Ibis well known that the earth is daily and nightly pelted with millions of meteors, the vast majority of which are almest instantly consumed by the intense heat daveliped as they dash into our atmosphere. The products of the combustion of these meteors filter slowly down through the air, and have been found in the shape of metallic dust on the snow fields in the Arctic regiens, on moyntain peaks in Europe, and in other similar lo- calities, being recognizable by their peculiar chemical composition. It is also known that the solar system abounds with swarms of meteors re- volving around the sun, and that the earth crosses the paths of a number of these, occasionally encountering the swarms themselves. The vast coajelity of these meteors are very swall, those that are seen weighing on an average probably only a few grains; and since tne tele- scope reveals millions which escape the naked eye, it is reasonable to con- clude that millions more are too small to be seeu even with telescopes —mere metearic dust. There are historic instances of supposed falls of meteoric dust, the most remarkable, perhaps, being that of 1783, when Europe, part of Asia, and part of North America were covered for months with a dry fog or haze, which excited the greatest alarm. Prof. Brooks’ suggestion that the earth has encountered a cloud ef meteoric dust is not, therefore, without foundation in probability. If the recent blaging sunscts have really resulted from such a cause, they are likely to continue, in a modi- fied form, for some time, gradually disappearing as the dyst sinks lower in the atmosphere. But, although so many reasons can be advanced which give probability tothe theory that me- teoric dust is concerned in the pro- duction of these strange sunset ef- fects, yet. it cannot be considered as proved, and, some better explanation may be offered. Whatever the true explanation may turp eut to be, however, everybody seems to agree ju the red glare inthe west during the last three or four evenings has been of the most singular spectacles beheld in the sky for many years.—Scientific American. eee The Tallest Trees in the World. It is usually considered that this epithet belongs, par excellence, to the famous “Big Trees” in California, variously known by the names otf Wellingtonia or Sequoia. These are however, far surpassed in height, and probably also in timber in a single tree, by the real giants of the vegetable kingdom, the poble gum trees of the genus Hucalyp- tus, which grow in the Victorian State Forest, on the slopes of the mountains dividjug Gipps Land from the rest of the eolony of Victoria, and also in mountain ranges north of Cape Otway, the first land which is usually “made” by any vessel bound from) England to Melbourne direct. As will presently be shown, there are ouly four of the California trees known to be above 300 feet high, the tallest being 325 feet, and only about sixty have been measured that ex- cced 200 feet in height. In the large tracts near the sources of the Watts River, however (a north- ern branch of Yarra-yarra, at the mouth of which Melbourne is built) ull the trees average from 250 to 300 feet in height, mostly straight as an arrow, and with very few branches. Many falleu trees measure 350 feet in length, and one huge specimen was discovered lately which was found, by actual measurement with a tape, to be 435 feet long from its roots to where the trank had been broken off by the fall; and at that point it was a fect in diameter, so that the entire tree could not have been less than 500 feet in total height. It Swas 18 feet in diameter at 5 feet from the ground, and) was a Eucalyptus of either of the species EF, oblique or E. amygdalina, It should be noted that these gigantic trees do not, like their California prototypes, grow in small and iseluted groves, towering above smaller specimens of the same or of closely allied kinds, but that, both in the Dandenong and Otway ranges, nearly every tree in the forest, over a large area, is on this enormous scale. — World of Wonders. Suryiving aSevered Throat, In 1877 Louie C. Londenski was crossing the mountains in Roumania when his party was attacked by rob- bers. All had their throats cut, but Loudenski had only his windpipe severed, his jugular vein being un- harmed. As he showed signs of life he was hanged, yet the rope did not strangle him, as he still: breathed through the aperture. After a time he was discovered and cut down, when he was removed to Vienna, when Professor Schraeder effected what is almost a cure, From Vien- na he traveled about the world, ex- hibiting himself at different medical colleges. He is at present in Buffalo, N. Y., and Dr. S H Warren, after a careful examination, describes his wound as follows: “An ineision was made dient diuing thie time there have been con-| —eee Nae oelkee tae the total ameunt of cords, larynx,and diverging tubes. Londenski, at his pleasure, can shew the action of the glottis in respiration —something never before beheld by surgeons in a living subject.” The Tribuné, describing the case, states that he breathes through a tube three-eighths of an inch in diameter, which curves downward. Ue lives mainly on liquid food, being unable to digest gross food. He smokes considerably, having beeh advised te do so by Professor Schraeler, ex- haling the smoke through the hole in his neck, ‘which is just below the Adam’s apple,and iu which isa tube that he closes when he wants to speak. The glottis, through disuse, has almost closed up.

It is situate at the head of the Narrows in Stanly county, 8 miles from Albemarte, the county seat; 13° miles from Gold Hill, and about 28 miles from Salisbury. It is one mile frow the public highway leading to Salisbury, from which road itis easily accessible down to the water’s edge. The peculiar feature of this property is that itisa natural stone dam which makes about a six foot head of available water. The dam runs at an angle of about 20 or 25 deg. up the river nearly all the way across, gradually diminishing in height as it approaches the opposite shore. A race of 400 fect in length will add from 12 to 14 additional feet of head, mak- ing the grand pewer of 18 or 20. There is any quantity of building stone and slate of excellent quality, on the premises, casily transported by water. This excellent power may be used for GRIST AND FLOURING MILLS, COTTON & WOOLEN FACTORIES, REDUCTION MILL FORSULPHU- RETED OREs., It isconveniently near the mines of Montgomery, Stanly, parts of Cabarrus, Rowan and Davidsen Counties to make it acustom mill, for the reduction of ores, with the great advantage of being in the centre of the mining districtsnamed above. The ores within easy reach could not be worked out in a century. This water power with 10 acres attached is offerred at $2,500, with the option of 100 acres at $3,500. Theiands are valua- ble for farming purposes; the situation healthy, the society god, and church and school advantayes very good.
