To-day Prof. Kerr goes to Swith’s Islaud, uear the mouth of the Cape Fear river, to gratify bis coriosity in regard to a certain matter. Smith’s Island is the largest island in North Catoliva, aud its climate is said to be the mildest of any point in the United States outside of Plorida—in fact, aa Prof. Kerr expresses it—it is a little spot of Flerida in North Caroliva. It is to satisfy himself fully apon this latter point that he visits the island. He will be accompanied by A. H. VanBokkelen, Esq., President of the Chamber of Commerce, and Maj. Henry Bacon, Assistant Engineer in charge o the government works at the mouth of the river.

This rush and worry, day after day—this restless anxiety fir something you have not got—is like pebble stones in machinery, they grate aud grind the life out of you. You have useless burdena; throw them off. You haves great load of useless care; dump it. Pull in the strings; compact your businogss; takotime for thought of better things. Go out iv the air and let God’s sun shine duwn on your busy head. Stop thisking of basi- ness and profit; stop grumbling at ad- verse providences. You will probably never see much better timesin this doom- ed world ; and your most opportune sea- son is now ; your happiest day is to-day, Calmly do your duty, and let God take care of his own world. Heis still alive and is the King. Do pot imagine that things will go to everlasting smash when you disappear from this mortal stage. Do not fancy that the curse of heaven, in the’ shape of the vain task of righting up a disjointed earth, is imposed upon you. Cease to fret and fume; cease to jump and worry early and late. The good time is coming but you can never bring it ; God can, and will; take breath, sir; sit down and rest, and take along breath. Then go calmly to the tasks of life, and do your work well.—Dr. 7.

Last June the wool clip from these sheep was 415,- 740 pounds, which seld for 27 cents a pound, briaging the owner $212,349.80, a clear profit of over $80,000, Even this wasa low yield. Four men keep the ranch in order during the year, but ia shearing time an additional force is of course necessary. A shearer is paid five cents a clip, aud $4.50 a day is frequent- ly made by @ good hand. The Santa Rosa sheep require no herding, but two hundred trained goats run with them, Rail road Commissioners’ Report. The first report of the Railroad commission as now formed has been presented to the Legislature,and shows that the members of the board have made conscientious and intelligent ef- fort to carry out the law ander which they were appointed. They devoted five mouths of hard steady work to the task assigned them before issuing their standard schedales of rates. The effect of that schedule is briefly stated as follows: First to freights : » The rates for short distances have been generally redaced below what they were before. The rates fur long distances are about the same as before, except that on the Charlotte, Colum- bia & Augusta Railroad short dis- tance rates have been increased and long distaute rates have been reduced. Second, as to passenger fare, the rates on all have been decreased. These r sare illustrated by clab- orate ta The report then gives the details of the complaints made to the Commis- siovers aud of their efforts to remedy the evils gomplained of, and more par- ticularly $xplains the difficulty in re- gard to “joint” rates, The trouble is, that while it seems equitable that the charge for transportation of the same article for the same distance should be the same, whether it was on one road or divided among two or mere roads, the wording of the law is such that “joint” rates established on that principle might compel each road to reduce its whole local tariff to the scale of its proportion of such joint rates. An amendment of the railroad law to meet this difficulty is sug- gested. The Board quote amply from Mr. about the Massachusetts Railroad Commission, as follows : “The country did not contian any trained body of men competent to do this work, They had to be found and educated. In the vext place, the work was one of great difficulty and ex- treme delicacy. The Commissioners wee to represent the government ina momentous struggle with the most compact and formidable interest in the country. They were to be pitted against the ablest men the community could supply, thoroughly acquainted with their business and with unliait- ed resources at the'r disposal. Final- ly, the test of success was to be that under these circumstances, and in the face of these difficulties, the Commis- sion should develop the crude origi- nal laws placed in their hands into a rational and effective system.” At the begioning of the report a merited tribute is paid to the meno- ry of the late ex-Governor Jeter, whose labors as a member of the board are fittingly acknowledged. A _rail- road map of the State, prepared for Commissioner Bonham, is found with the repert.— Charleston News & Cou- reir. -_- Boys Who Became Famous Men. One night a father was aroused by the cry of fire from the street. Little iping the fire was in his own house, le opened his bedroom dvor and found the place fall of smoke, avd that the roof was already burved throngh. Directing his wife and two girls to rise and fly fur their lives, he burst open the aursery door where the maid was sleeping with five children. They snatehed up the youvg- est, and bade the others follow her; the three eldest did so; but John, who was then six years eld, was vot awakened, and in the alarm was forgotten. The rest of the family eecaped—some through the windows, others by the garden door ; the mother, to ase her own expressien, ‘‘wad- ed through the fire.” Just then Jehan was heard crying tu the nursery. The father rau up the stays, but they were so near- ly consumed that they could not bear his weight; and being utterly in despair he fell upon his knees in the ball, aud in agony commended the soul of the child to God. John had been awakeued by the hight, and finding it impossible ta escape by the door, climbed apen a chest that stood near the window, and was seen from the yard, There was ne time for procaring a ladder, but one man was holated upen the shoulders of another. And thus he wastaken oat. A moment after the roof fell in. When the child was rescued, the father cried out; “Come, neighbors, jet us kveel down ; let us give thanks to God. He has given me all my cight children; let the house go; Iam rich euough.” Jvhn Wealey always remembered the deliver- ance with the deepest gratitude. Under ove of the portraits published during bis life is a representation of a honse on fire with the Scriptural inquiry, “Ie not this a brand placked out of the barnivgf” libag- —_- —— The certain way to be cheated, is to imagine one’s self more cunning than oth- ers.

The Newbern Journal holds that there is more pleasure in raising beef, mutton, pork, and horses and mules than in cotton, In raising stock the farm can be improved without buy- ing commercial fertilizers. In this section there are vast acres of excel- lent summer pastures, especially on the pocosina where there are thou- sands of acres of reeds, which, by the way, afford excellent winter pastar- age too, and a cow or a sheep ora hog with proper attention will ma- nure land eneugh to make their win- ter’s support. One difficulty that fermerly existed here, that of glut- ting the market, can now be avoided. With quick and safe transportation lines all the beef und matton that cannot be consumed in Newbern cau be shipped North, and if fit for mar- ket will bring good prices. A good stock raiser with a farm near this city that will make crabgrass, peas and corn, can make a fertaune supplying this market with good stall-fed beef. But to do this the poor | miserable stuff brought here and sold | for beef must be ruled out of the market. Some of the older citizens tell us j that before the war but few grocery | dealers kept the Northern and West- ern bacon fur sale, while every one had the country haws aud shoulders. Now itis just the reverse. We are in fuvor of progress, but there are some of the old ways that will ere leng, |have to be resumed. One objection /now to hog raising is cholera. This |is very bad, but remedics are being | applied that are said to be very effec- tual, and the inventive genius of ‘uau will yet, if it has not already, find a sure remedy. It is often the case, however, that the disease originates | from an empty corn crib. The amount of money paid out an- nually in Eastern North Carolina for | horses and mules, if it could be cor- rectly estimated, would astonish the | people. Now while ours is not strickly a stock region, yet it would | be profitable to at least raise horses ond mules enongh te cultivate our lands. Now wede not expect a sudden | revelution among our farmers in re- ‘gard to their market crops, but we ask | them to cousider what is ahead, We i want them to remember that the Mis- bottoms will make a bale of ‘cotton to the acre witheut manure. |To make it in North Curolina we }must spend from six to ten dollars }per acre for manure; that is, the |furmers is the cotton belt can make it fron: one to two ceu.s per pound cheaper than we can. ><> aa Canes, \ SISSIp pl The manufacture of canes is by no means the simple precess of cutting the sticks in the woods, peeling off the bark, whittling down the knots, sand- papering the rough surface and ad- ding a touch of varnish, a curiously carved handle or head and tipping the end with a ferrule, In the saud flats of New Jersey whole families support themselves by gathering nan- neberry sticks, which they gather in the swamps, straighten with an old vice, steam over au old ketéle and perhaps scrape down or whittle into size. These are packed io large bun- dies and sent to New York city and suld to the cane factories, Many im- ported sticks, however, have to go through a process of straightening by mechanical means, which are a inys- tery to the uninitiated. They are bu- ried in hot sand until they become pliable. In front of the heap of hot sand in which the stieks are plunged is a stout board from fave to six feet long, fixed at au angle inclined to the workmen and having two or more notches worked in the edge. When the stick has begome perfectly pliable the workman places it on one of the notelies and, bending it in the oppo- site direction to which if is naturally bent, straightens it. ‘Thus sticks ap- parently crooked, bent, warped and worthless are by this simple process straightend ; but the curious part of the work is observed in the formation of the crook or curl for the handles which are not naturally supplied with a hvok or knob. The workman places one end of the cane firmly in a vice and pours a continuous stream of fire from a gas pipe on the part which: is (o be bent. When sufficient heat has been applied the cane is pulled slow- ly and gradually’ around until the hook is completely formed and then secured with a string. An addition- al application of heat serves ta bake and permanently fix the curl. The search could have discovered the A Remarkable Cave. An article in the is a de- scription of Devonshire, entitled “The Fairest county in England,” by Fran- cis George Heath. Of Kent’s Cavern, in the vicinity of Torquay, a remark- able cave, consisting of a great exca- vation in the Devouian limestone, the writer says: It is entered by a nar- row passage some seven feet wide and five feet in height. The central cavern, which is almost 600 feet long, has a number of smaller caverns or corridors leading out frdm it. Its far- ther extremity is terminated by a deep pool of water. In the bed of this cav- ern modern research has been reward- el hy some deeply interesting discov- eries. Over the original earth bottom of the cave is a bed or layer of con- iderable thickness, in which ate con- tained a strange mixture of human bones with the bones of the elephant andthe rhinoceros, the hyena, the bear and the wolf, intermingled with stone and flint tools, arrow and spear heads, aod fragments of coarse pottery. The animal remains testify to the presence in the ancient forests of Britain of beasts of prey which long since have become extinct. Speculation may be exhausted in the endeavor to account for the curious intermingling in this cavern of the remains of human beings aud of wild animals. The place may have been used for shelter succeessively by man and by the lords of the forest; or, as the presence of the rude weapons of man might seem to indicate, the beasts of the field may have been brought into this natural recess as trophies of the chase, and their flesh and skins used for purposes of fuod and clothing. Nothing less than the most persevering and enthusiastic In- teresting remains which, for a vast period of time had been buried in this retreat ; for the fossils were covered by a thick floor of stalagmite which had been formed, there can be no doubt by great blocks of limestone which had falleu from time to time, extendiug over a very lengthened, period, from the roof of the cavern, and had become cemented into one mass by the perpetual percolations of lime-water from above. Saving Winter Cabbage. There are several methods usually givsn about this time of the year to preserve cabbage through wiater, and we have tried nearly or quite all of them, We prefer the one we intro- duced nearly thirty years ago, and with which we have always succee- ded in keeping our cabbage in perfect condition until late in the spring. It is simply to excavate slight trenches side by side on a rising or dry spot where the water will readily drain off, in which to standghe cabbage just as it grows, sinking it up to the head. ‘The rows can be as closely put together as the size of the heads will admit; cover over with corv fodder,straw or bean haulm, Then set four posts so as_ to from a pitch, pla- | cing the bead against a stone wall or board fence. Ou these form a roof by bean poles when boards are not ut hand, and cover this with corn- stalks or straw. If ordinarily well done the cabbage will keep as long us may be desired, having usually pre- served ours sound and fresh until the end of April or the beginning of May. We are aware that it is commonly recommended to place the heads of the cabbage in the ground with the root sticking up; but, having tried this way, we found that the cabbage kept fresher and better as we recom- mend, To prove this we have had cold-siaw in May.— Germantown Telegraph. ———-__—__<. > o——____—_— The Montgomery (Ala.)

Wus there ever a large city built up and its merehants, bankers aud tivancial in- stitutions advertised to the outside world without the aid of newspapers ? _A New York vewspaper is often foavd in some remote corner of the globe where you would wonder if an American bad ever trod. A map, for instance, in a foreign coun- try, bappeus to pick up a vewspaper that has the heading of New York upon it, perhaps he may rend thit paper and be- come alittle: interested iu New York. He laysit down, and sometime in the future. while iv a different partof the world, he finds another paper with a New York heading. ‘This of course re- news his interest in acity which he has never seen. ‘I'he desire to see the place strengthens day by day, until he finally makes up his mind to come to New York, He arrives bere perhaps with the same morbid desire that has brought thousands belore him. He is pleased with New York as everybody on the streets seems to be ina hurry to reach some poiut of desti- nation, and the whole city is alive, as it were, to her own interests, thinking, talking and acting for New York. The basivess men, sparred on, with an energy peculiar to New York, are persons who haye come from different parts of the world te help build up this great city. This man gees into business amd is shortly reeegnized asa citizen, while others follow faster and faster, until a large city is built up, aud then a person svndershow so many people ecer thought | of coming to New York.

N. C. Regiment, Troops. Stale Cor, Statesville Landmark. There was perhays no regiment in the Southern army that did more service than the “Old Fourth.” The writer enlisted in Captain J. B. Andrews’ company in the year 186], went into camp a mile west of Statesville, remained there about two weeks, went to Garysburg, N, C.,| and remained there about ove month. | Frem there we were hurried in to Man- assas to assist iv that memorable strug- gle, but the enemy were routed and driv- ep across the Potomac before we reached there. We went into camp near that place, doing a great deal of hard service under the strict discipline of George B. Anderson, then colonel of the 4th Regi- jment. At this place between filty and ‘seventy of our men sickened aud died durivg the warm months of August and September. Some of the best men iu company C. of said regimeut, died while there. Remaining there until the next February, we struck our tents and march- ed for Yorktown, Va., to which point| McClelland had moved bis whole com- mand. Arriving there we found Gen. Magruder with a small command holding the enemy in check. We were placed in the front lines and were initiated iuto the ¢readful realities of war. Here we bee came acquainted with the hissing music ef solid shot, shells and minnie balls. Here | first saw the novel sight of men trying to bury themselves when they heard the hissing of these missiles of! death. Remaining at Yorktown about two weeks we began that retreat toward Richmond hKnowa a8 Gen. Johnson’s famous retreat. We marched and cour. termarched through mud and rain, and while there was some hard fighting at Williamsburg, our regi- ment arrived on the field only iv time to see the enemy repulsed. We continued our retreat until we arrived at Seven Pines, four miles from Richmoud, remain- ing here a few days, during whigh time there wus much rain and the streams were covsiderably swollen. Gen. Jobo- son, kuowing that McClellan had throwu one corps of his army across the Chicha houmivy, dele:miued to attack him before he could get reinforcements across the tiver. ‘This corps had turtilied itself on an eminence, with the artilery ranging in every direction. Early in the morning we were ordered out aud preparations Phe 4th Regimeut name, were placed in tront. The order was giv- en, ‘char. e,” and then the work of death began. The rattic of nu vetry, the boom- ing of the cannon, the shrieks o' the dy- ing, the shouts of the victorious, render- ed the scene trightfully grand. The ene- wy was diiven trom his works at every point; but he succeeded iu getting across the iver, and Gen. Johuson withdrew his forees from the field after barying bis dead. Ou this battlefield lie ee the bones of many of North Carolina truest aud best sons.

KENDALL’S SPAVIN CURE. Dr. B. J. Kenpatt & Co., Gents :—Four years ago while in the employ of A. P.

Some time during the fifth year, (for I was in their employ between tive and six years), we were recommended to try Kendall's Spavin Cure, and after using it two months the Horse was cured the enlare ement hav- ing beer entirely removed, and thus believ- ing it tobe a valuable nedcine I fully re- com nend it to all who have occassion to use it.

To the ladies who devised and consummated affairs words fail usin the attempt to express our thankg fFbis much we may say, without indalgiog in eommonplace sentimentalitics upon dress, lights, beau- ly and smiles, that never was a new year served up to a more charmed and charm- ing cirele than that which formed be- neath the chandelier on the occasion of which we have written. As a climax of the seasons compliments, to them we wish that when the ivtant year has grown old, and the bells are tolling his depart- ture, that he may leave them as he fuand them. Tur Youne Men. : ea For the Watchman. The Public Roads. Mr. Editor : There is not a more respon sible position than that of an Overseer on the Public Boads, because, not ouly the cou venience but the safety of the entire community depend upgu the faithful performance of their duties, iu keeping the roads iu the conditien required by law. Aud yet, there is vo class of our public servants whe are less informed of their duties than they. We will veutuse the asser- tion, that not one iu ten of them, ever saw the road law, aud never know any- thing about their daties, except what they learn from hearsay. This being the case, we deem it highly important, that they be placed in possession of the law pertaining to their duties, to the end, that they may be infermed of their duties }aud then we might reasovably expect to see our roads in better condition. All school committeemen are furnished with a copy of the school laws. There is as much or more respousibility resting upeu Overseers, as upon them. Then why not furnish Overseers with the read laws ? I would suggest to our County Com- missioners, that they ascertain, as nearly as practicable, the number of road Over- seeis iv our county, and have a sufficient vumber of copies of the road law printed, to furnish each overseer with a copy. These could be placed in the hands of the various Supervisors, who could place them iu the hands of the Overseers of their townships, to be returned at the expiration of the terms of their appoiut- ments, aud be turned ever tothe new overseers. It would only cost a few dollars to do this, aud would certainly result iu much good. Besides, overseers are highly responsible, and it seems to me to be wrong to punish a@ man for the Vivlation of a law of which he is wholly ignorant, or of which he has vever bad himself We respectfully submit the above te our worthy Coanty Commissioners, invoking their favorable cousideration of the same. Very Respectfully, W.R. Frarey. Rowan Milla, N. C., Dee. 19th '83. — -—— Kendall’s Spavin Cure. Denver, Colorado, April 22nd, 1882. Dr. B. J. Kenpatt & Co.:—Four years ago while in the employ of A. P. Perley & Co., Danvers, Mass., we had a horse that became spavined during the ‘first year of my stay with them, and remained so for four years, though we used every remedy we knew ur could hear of but no avail. Some time during the fifth year, (for I was in their employ between five and six years), we were recommended to try Kendall’s Spavin Cure, and after using it two month the Horse was cured the enlargement hav ing been entirely removed, and thus believ- ing it tov be a valuable medicine I fully re- commend it to all who have occasion to use it. Respectfully, P. H. Lyons. a ae The laboring meu out West two years ago raised the ery that the Chinese must go—and sure evough they went. Now in Pennsylvania the miners say that the Hungarians, who are largely employed there, must go—and we suppuse it will end in the same way. The offences charged against the Hungariavs are that they are uncleanly, immoral, -ignorant, leat food that white folks won't eat, and work cheap. How long will it be before these — Northern white laborers will be demand- ing thit the darkeys must go? The time will come when the negroes of the Seuth will find their only hope for protection against Northern white labor lies in the strength of the Southern | whites. Unless our memory is at fault, about September 15th, 1862, Abraham Lincoln ina public speech delivered to the ne- groes at Washington, told them plainly that the United States was a white man’s country and that if they should be freed, pleasant putare, and | they could not hope or expect to remain in this couutry. He said they would have to emigrate to some other cvuntry, heightened by the) Abraham Lincolu was in some reapects a wise man ; but he did not reflect thatthe time would ceme when the Soathern , whites would staud ready to befriend the has given away this the! negro and preserve bis home to him and | his children,— News and Observer. edhe dine a ‘i _* ~ = Seas ve] Mr. L.

Bruner, Esq: Mg Dear Sir :—1\ have seen the publi- cation of my letter to you, in your issue of the 20th. There are several typo- graphical errors in the same—on the 12th line, the word “attention,” should be attrition, and on the 28th live, the word “flow,” should be flour. In reading your remarks, at the foot of the article, 1 would state iv explanation that, my process in reduction, consists in simply destroying the foreign matter, en- veloping the particles of gold, rendering them ‘‘free,” and susceptible ef the ac- tion of quicksilver. Of the many methods proposed for this purpose, 1 found by | 8 actual work, the cost too great, and the manipulation, too diversified, hence my aim wasto produce the result at the minimum of cost, at the same time, com- bining simpleness in handlivg. To give those interested a better idea of the op- eration, I give you an outline of what I claim in this process of reduction. The ere being crushed by whatever‘appliauce used, is passed over the plates or tables, the free gold colleeted in the usual way, the “sulphides” are to pass off on to the concentrators, and thus transmuted into rich concentrates, these in tarn go into my furnace, and in said furnace the gas is generated, which total- ly destroys the sulphur, iron ete, leaving the gold “free,” and in a perfect state for its amalgamation, by a plain process, direct from the furnace. I am aware of the many “processes,” advavced and tried, that have proved failares—have seen many of these myself, hence 1 bave been very careful in demonstratiug the process to myselfas others--in no one instance have [ failed, and ores from which, bat one to two dollars are extrac- ted by ordivary milling, have produced me, fourteen dollars per ton. Tam aboat arrangivg to put the pro- cess into a constiuction company, and throagh this company, introduce it into sections, where sulphide ores are numer- ous. The method isa perfect success, aud while Ido not claim anything mar- veluus in the matter, I doclaim to be able to reduce these “sulphides,” by not only a very simple and radical mode of treatment, but a comparatively inexpeu- sive mauner. | should like your miving men in North Caroliva, to drop me a line, informing me, of the capabilities of their mines, and the reduction plant at their disposal, and as soon as I ain in shape, I will be glad tw go further into the matter with them.

A dose of Brandreth’s Pils removes the matter and the disease is cured. [n costiveneas one good dose of Brandreth’s Pills, fullowed by one pill every night fora week ortwo, make the huwan machinery run as regular ua clock work, In bad colds, 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 stomich, will restore the perspiration, break up the cold and purge away all the wa- tery accretions that sbould have passed off by the skin. Diphtheria, a family diseare and » most dangerous one. is almost immediately cured by one or two doses of Brandreth’s Pills, aided by a gargie of lime water. which comes from too much acidity or too much alka.inity of the system, requires noth- ing buat Brapdreth’s Pills and a few good | sweats to make a perfect cure. After two doses, the effect js seen in brightness of the eyes and clearness of the «kin. A I! pim- ples and eruptions vanish like magic under the influence of this purifying purgative.

Brandretlh.’~ Pille have stood the test of forty- five years of use by the Aimertean people. They are entirely Vegetabl>. They are) absolutely univereal,for there is no discuse | they will not cure, if taken intime. Theyare | 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 xy* tem and diseased matters of the body. By pur- ging wi.h these Pills constantly, a new body | | | can be built up from frerh, healthy food in a few months. In this way, gout and rheuma- | tim, ulcers and fever sores c.n be eradicated | in u few weeks. The worst cases of dy spepsia and costivenees 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 to the human body, no matter how worn or decayed, the recuperative powers of youth. In their action, they imitate the rapid chances of the youthful body. We all wi-h to die of old age, A hundred yearsis the natural limit of life, which can only be reached by purging and purifjcation. 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, ur by sedentary hab- its, are wonderfully renovated by a course of this extraordinary medicine, which, powerful aa ia its action on the whole system, ix perfect- ly harmless to the tenderest frame. The Pills are composed of rare balsams, without the ad- mixture of a grain of any mineral whalerer, or ol any other deletecious substance, They operate directly, powerfully, and beneficially upon the whole naas of blood ; nor can we question the fact when we see indigestion cured, liver com. plaints arrested, the oppressed lungs brought into healthful play, and every physical func— tion renewed and strengthened by their agency.

When distant objects are sighted the inus- cles reluxes, the ligament stretches and flaiiens the leus; and when the object to be seen is near, the muscle contracts avd the lens resumes a globular shape. In old age the elas- tic lens gets stiff, and does not spring back intoa globular form. Magui- fying lenses have to be added in or- der to get the image of near objects focused on the retina. Nose-pinching glasses are to be avoided for the sake of comfurt aud because no uniformi- ty of portion can be maintained with them. Color-blindness is a common defect. Some people are unable to distinguish green and red, though yellow is a color never mistaken by any one. Seience thus far las failed to relieve this defect, which seems to be seated in the brain. Short-sight- edness is a disease and is remedied by concave glasses which lengthen the focug.

A farmer’s congress, composed of agri- cnitarists frem all sections of the country was held at Louisville, Ky., last week.

The political persecutions in Seuth Carolina have not resulted as, the Gov- ernment desired. If with such a Judge as Bond the white men of South Carolina cannot be convicted and seut to the peni- tentiary at Albany, then the cases of the whites must be above suspicion.

Horse searlet fever, or the so-call- ed “pink eye,” forms the sabject of an interesting paper by Dr. Jolin C. Pe- ters, In the New York Medigal Jour- nal, of December 15. The conelusion is that various diseases of animals, communicable to man and vice versa, had frequently prevailed in our great car stables along the river frouts, among such diseases being diphthe- ria, scarlatina, and true measles, or a hybrid of measles and scarlet fever. Tnoculations with the blood, tears, and usual mucus have produced the disease, the so-called “pink eye,” hav- ing thus been couveyed from a partly blooded horse to a cart-horse, from that to Guinea pigs, and from them toa popey. Young horses take the disease more frequently than older unima!s, although the latter are net always exempt. On the seventh day improvement generally commences, but the disorder seems most .conta- gious at that time, The trouble is self-limited ordinarily, so that pallia- tive treatment is all that is required. A feed governor for cotton gins has been patented by Mr. Henry P. Schaefer, of Schulenberg, Texas.

Cheerfulness. _ Many people are always complain- ing of their circumstanees. Are there not persons from whom you can sel- dom hear the contented tone? They have had, or are going to have all the ills flesh is heir to. There are people who never live in the right place, who are in the wrong business. Misfor- tune is their daily bread. They are bruised and wounded, slightest’ and tormented, misused and afflicted, Cheerfulness and contentment never make any man’s lot harder to bear, but many, many isthe time they have made trials easier to bear and cireum- stances endurable. Many people are never qhite so happy as they used to be. They never have quite so warm, dear friends as in former times, or in other places. Friend, the good you now have and present friends are not to be despised. Is there then so much good in life that we can afford to throw any of it away? Why not make the most of the good we have ? Let us stand off from despondencies. Listen for sweet notes rather than discord. OS EE Oo City or Mexico, Jan. 2.—A hur- ricane occurred on the Mexican coast, on November 4, which entirely de- stroyed the town of Altaka at the port of that name. Not a house re- mained standing and the vessels at anchor suffered severely. At Mazat- lan the wind blew with great vio- lence and the sea was excessively rough. When the gale commenced the Mexican steimer Democrata and the barks Carlos II., Aladin and Harmodinus were at anchor. The Aladin cut away her anchors, losing her first mate in the operation, as he was carried overboard and drowned. She diifted on the beach at Puerto Visjo, near Cameron. Her crew suc- ceeded in reaching shore, with the exception of two who were drowned. The Harmodius sent down her uj - per masts and yards and rode the yale out in safety. . ——— oe Man that is married to woman is of many days and full of trouble.

The Dav.dsen College Affair---The Students’ Side of the Case, I notice iv your paper a ieference ta an article printed in) the Charlottes Ob- server concerning some affrouts received at the hauds of the students of this pluce by the Methodist preachers going to Con- ference. I don’t think there has been a fair statement of the affuir published yet, and, as it is said to be generally circula- ted in its worst form about Statesville, I wish to lay the facts before the public, as seen by av eye-witness, There were not more than fifteen beys at the train, of whom the greater part had some reasun- able excuse. There was no singing in the coach, aad the minister must have been laboring under a hallucination if he thinks he heard the song which he published. No such song has ever been kvown here. There was some singing outside, but mot such as would offend any one. The mivister complains that the students called one another “Broth er,” for the purpose of ivsulting them. The fact isthat there wasa_ boy there who has the nickname, ‘Brother,” who ‘vas not there to offend the Conference but to see some ‘fair one” whe was going to it. Se any one may know tbat he meant no barm by being called * brother.” As to the complaints about ridiculous dress, | pass over that as not worthy of notice ; for if it offends and insults a miuister to see a student iv his study- | (all honor to him for papers of the State; thas doing the faculty injustice; for if he ever was at coliege he ought to know that bots won't report ope another, even where there ia wrong done inteutionally, which I deny to be the case iv this instance; and also injuring the reputation of the cellege aud holding up the students before the whole couutry as rowdies and black-- guards of the lowest type. I deny that this is the fact and hepe that in future the gentleman will act with more judg- ment and charity: Respectfully, A STUDENT OF Davipson COLLEGE. — — Gen. Vance on ‘Temperauge) ™? Concord Registe™® The House of Representative were dis- cussing the committees to be appuinted. A representative from Maine, Mr. R—— moved ; a committee on the liquor traffic. It met with sturdy opposition: Gen. Vauce spoke as follows ou the impertance of the committee whose daty it is to in- vestigate the “sample room.” The fol- lowing is an extract from his address. The committe was ordered by a bare ma- jority vote. All our Congressmen except the noble Vance, and the pegro O'Hara, that vote,] voted against the appointment of the commit- tee. Read the words of the noble Vauce as he pleads against the accursed whisky tra fie. The gentleman from Texas talks about legislating iv favor of. sumptuary laws jand sayiug what a mau shall eat and drink. In my judgment, sir, the object is to get information a subject that reaches and touches every human being ov this continent. ou It affects every man, weman, aud child, and every interest in this great country. [{A,-planase ov the Republican side.] I thiuk that the senti- ment of the temperance people of the United States of America ought to be re- spected iu this House which creates com- mittees on almost every other subject. We have committees on legislation in regard to the yellow fever aud we have committees in regard to the cotten worm. {Laughter.] We hare committees on sending expeditions to the North pole in search of vessels that have been lost, and then why, sir, should uot the representa- tives of the American peeple inquire in reference to that vessel of intemperance which has wrecked 80 many households in this land of ours. [Applause.) I hope, sir, the Representatives of the American people will allow the friends of humanity, the friends of truth, justice and mercy, to be beard ; that they will extend to the people the opportunity to gather every information on a snbject of such tremen- dous luiportance as the ohe vow before the House. Will the American Repre- sentatives here, sir, deny to millious of people the right to be heard on this im- portant question ? [Cries of “‘No!"} I hope not. I hope we will not be denied the ple right of having a committee on the subject. We We want to kuow what it costs this Gevern- sim- want information. ment because of this evil of intemperance. We state that it costs more than the every man, woman, and child, white and black, in this broad laud. I believe it will be well for us to stand up in the in- terest of humanity, and in the interest of peace and right. It is better fer us to do so than to stand up here io the interest of the liquor traffic, which is carried on ata price of the blood of our people. {[ Applause. } Frank Williams alias Pressly, says the Observer, was arrested in Charlotte for a burglary, wew year’s night, is also want- ed at Laurinsbarg for a murder ip Sept. last, but that he had as well have his neck stretched for burglary as fer mur- der. — —~—_- - —_—__—_.

The fact that the path of Biela’s comet passes very bear the path of the earth is evidence no means im- | probable. “Read what the author has to that such an event is by say on this subject : “The second ‘comet of a short period,’ was observed in 1772; and was seen again in 1805. It was not until its reappear- This was successfully accomplished by M. Bi- ela of Josephstadt , hence it is called Lj- ela’s Comet. Aceérdiog to observations made upon it in 155, by the celebrate Dr. Olbers, its diameter, incladiug its eu- velope, is 42,280 miles. It is a curious very hear to that of the earth ; that at the moment the centre of the com- ct is at the point nearest to the earth's path, the matter of the comet extends be- yond that path, Within it, and includes a portion Thas, if the earth were at that point of its orbit which is nearest to the path of the comet, at the same Mioment that the comet should be at that point of path of the earth, the earth would be enveloped iu the nebulous atmosphere of the comet. “With respect to the effect Which might be produced Qpon our atinosphere by such & circumstance, it is impossible to offer anything but the most Vague conjecture. Sir John Herschel was able to distingnish stars as minute as the 16th and 17th mag- uitude through the body of the comet! Hence it seems reasovable to infer, that the nebulous matter of which it is com- posed, must be infinitely more uttennated than our atmosphere; so that for particle of cometary matter which we should inhale, we should iuspire millions of particles of atmospheric air. “This is the comet which was to come into collision with the earth, and to blot it out from the Solar System. In return- ing to its perihelion, November 26th, 13:32, it was computed that it would cross the earth’s orbit at a distance ef only 18,500 miles. It is evident that if the earth had been in that part of her orbit at the same time with the comet, our at- mosphere would have mingled with the atmosphere of the comet, and the two bodies, perhaps bave come inp contact. But the comet passed the earth's orbit on the 29th of October, in tho 8th degree of Sagittarius, and the earth did not arrive at that point until the 30th of November, which wae 32 days afterwards. “If we multiplify the namber of hours in 32days, by 68,000 (the velocity of the eai th per hour,) we sball find that the earth was more thaa 52,000,000 miles ve- hind the comet when it crossed her orbit. Its nearést approach to the éarth, at time, was about 51 millions of mito 5 bearest approach to the Sun, was abba 83 millions of miles. Its mean distanee from the Sun, or half the lengest axis of its orbit, is 337 millions of miles. Its eccentricity is over 25.3 millions of miles g consequently. it is 507 millions ot miles nearer the Sun in its perihelion than it is in its aphelion. The period of its sider- eal revolution is 2,400 days, or about 643 years.” THE ASCERTAINED AND ASSUMED N UMBER OF COMETS.

A Republiean caucus of Senators and Representatives was held in the hall of the House of Represex tatives, at Washington, Wednesday night, to appoint a congressional committee. There were about 125 present, Sena- tor Edmunds presided. The follow- ing resolutions were adopted with ap- plause ; Resolved, That it is the sense of this meeting that the Republican cou- gressional committee be immediately Organized, consisting of one menber from éach State and Territory, having Republican representatives for the preparation and circulation of docu-| ments concerning subjects pending in Congress, and fur the execution of such other campaign work as may be agreed upon by that committee, and by the Republican National Com- mittee, Resolved, That we €X press our sy m- | paty and will extend and co-operaie j!n all practicable ways to all South- ern Republicans, who are struggling to exercise the vital and fundamental rights of free suffrage in the popular elections, and no less do we pledge our friendship this day to all citizens | of the Southern Statcs, who have not been Republicans, bat are manfully contending against the prosciiption of 1 favor of freedom in Public education for the whole people, we recoininend a prompt and cor- | fact, that the path of Biela’s comet passes | ie a of representatives with 7 80 near, | Suc 1 patriotic citizens in combines efforts to redeem their State from the fatal doninations of false ideas and dishonorable practices, Alas! this is but a pun—a } words—yoid of honest intent, judg- ing the party by its past record, > <> a The pay of Federal Judges. his circuit counsel of a railroad a much higher salary thau he received from the govern- ment. His predecessor, Judge Dillon, did the same thing. This has moved several of our Cuntemporaries to say that the United States will have to pay higher salaries to keep its best Judges trom going into the employ of corporations.—N, Y., Herald. The foregoing has its Meaning, is full of suggestions to the millions of this country, The day Was in this republic when such con- duct of a judge would have been stamped as disreputable. But the times have changed, Money is now the pointed factor ruling the decis- ions of men. ‘There was a day when it was considered honorable to be an officer of the goverment regardless of asalary beyond the requirements of a patriotic and econumie mode of living, aday when it wae ever co: - sidered honorable to Le a judge of the courts. The time, however, is upon us wien that hor is thrown in the balance against salary, and is found wanting. The sacrificing of judgeships for railroad counselships has Lecome quite common, the sole reason being the higher salaries paid by the rail-, road corporations. In view of this fact some ef our contemporaries are clamering for higher pay for the Judge McCrary has resigned asa United States It toiling judges. They seem to favor cou pe- tition with the corporations, -being forgetful of the fact that the same impulse which drives the latter into paying higher salaries, would stil! remain to impelthem to raise their salaries in proportion to the jucrease made by the governovent. Judge McCrary’s salary was six | thousand dollars per annuum, whilst | Mr. McCrary, as counsel for the rail- road, receives, it is said, thirty-five | thousand dollars. ‘The distinguished | judge has agreed to become the in-| eae ent of the significant Mr. for the conscience unive a ys: lecenoe ‘ ore nie “The ¥ ber of comets which have tickling ene of rive’ bit ‘| been o ed since the Christian era, | thousand dollars, quite a handsome | amounts 0 700.

Perhaps the most notable celestial event of the year will be the oppesi- tion of Mars at the end of the present mouth. There is so much about this ME close resemblance to the earth; and so many of its surface features and of the natural processes occurring upon it are visible with teleseopic aid, that every time it comes to opposition, that is, gets into a line with the earth and sun, the earth being ih the middle, a battery of telescopes is turned upon it with eager expectation of interesting views if not important discoveries, At opposition Mars appears with small ruddy tinge. As the magnifying pew- er is increased one detail after anoth- er of the diversified surface of this distant world comes into view, until it hangs in the field of the telescope a real globe, marked plainly with con- tinents, oceans and islands, and par- tially covered with clouds. The first physical features of Mars that come into view are the snow caps surrounding his poles. The southern pole is now incline toward the earth, and a small telescope, ws of, bree inches aparture, will pare show the circular, gleaming patch of snow that covers the antarctic region of the globe The dark ring surrounding | the snew field, and sometimes called Phillip’s Sea, is almost equally dis- tinct, and some of the seas, or spots that are believed to be seas, can be ible, and with the largest and best all the various features of Martian geog- raphy, which are represented on some Mars that have been constructed, can What a surprising thing it RONEY & BRO.

Rowan will have large accessions ef pulverizing machinery, and if the other counties keep abreast of her, the above named figures wil] reach over a thousand during 84. ee ee A Warning tothe Owners of For- ests and Lands, For several years parties have been going through this State buying stand- ing trees in the forests of our laud own- ers, paying them so mach cash, and let- tivg the trees stand for an_ indefinite time, and binding the owner to pro- tect said trees, and to give free access to teams and labor to remoye them at will. This plan gives the land owner a small amount of ready cash, a thing few people people care to let slip, but the result is disastrous iu Sthe end. ‘It leaves the owner with a forest robbed of its commercial weods, which he has dis- posed of at nominal figures. It leaves him with his taxes just as high, and his best timber owned by anether who is paying notax. And more, it has. hurt the sale of the Jand as much or more than the sum received for the trees. The thing narrows down to this: The land has depreciated perhaps one half in value, it is taxed as high as formerly and it is practically damaged so far as the market is concerned—for land buyers are not looking for property which has been skinned of its valuable timbers. A little thought on this subject cannot bat convince the most theughtless of the self- destroying policy of selling out your valuable hard woods, Few can hope to live long enough to see the forests re- plenished, or theevil effects of the whole- sale tree rebbery remedied. This business has ruined thousands of acres of lands ip Western Carolina, and if there is no abatement in the practice, it will not require mere than ten years to reduce our forests to one-fourth their present value, aud force legitimate settlers aud buyers to scek elsewhere for lands and forests. Let every land owner eonsider well the practical effects of this bysiness and decide with caution. ——_- Question of Supply, GOLD AND SILVER, One of the most important considera- tions in any line or plan of operations is that of supply.

Congpury. ory v haustible, and, in fact, so great that there is danger of their becoming useless and worthless for momentary purposes. For some time an organized and persis- teut plan has been arranged to destroy the usefulness of silver as a factor of onr currency on the ground that it is accumu- lating in such vast quantities as to be- ceme practically valueless, and in furtherance of this plan it has been stated that because of this superfluity of silver wany of the leading Enropean nations have excluded its use, and have made gold the sole standard of cowmercial values. The example of the leading financial nations has been given as an argument of some force, and as an indi- catiou of the wisest financial policy to be adopted by our nation. England is ac. knowledged to be one of the leading mono-metallic powers, yet in Great Britiawene was coined in 1882, while its silver“toinage amdunted to about $1,049,400; iv other words the leading gold standard nation of world, during the year coined no gold, Bat isSued from its mints $1,049,400 in silver, and the actual amount of silver coin held by Great Britain is stated at about $96,- 500,000. This may indicate the practical operations of the siugle gold standard wherever adopted. A most careful examipation of reliable statistics shows beyond a question, that the consupption of silver within the last thirty years has exceeded the production to the extent of $1,342,000,000, and that the consumption of gold has exceeded the production to the amount of $2,740,- 000,000, so that durivg this period the consumption of the two precious metals chiefly used as currency, has exceeded the ———— by asmuch as $4,082,- 000,000. The consumptien of gold aud silver outside of coining pur 8 is in- creasing rapidly, and the North Ameri- can Review, ove of the mest reliable authorities, states that “the consumption of gold for other than monetary parposes in Europe, America and Australia, bas more than quadrupled during the past thirty years ; has tripled in twenty years aud is mor than five times what it was but a eae ago. The great mass of gold which bas tlowed from the mines should be made available sources for the production of guanos, besides becoming teh such overwhelming odds on — tion of the su that instead of de- creasing or obstructing the coinage of silver, a the for — cur- rency will soover or later Te not only of the silver rs of the mines, in addition to the gold, but some other metal or combina of metals, which shall have a sufficient bullion value to be admitted to the class of pre- cious metals and used for monetary clearly shown in and ex England, where they are compelled to used and coin silver, although practically ignoring its use and valae in commer- cial and financial statements and . de of consumption, The difficalties the way ef maintaining a single currency standard are readily apparent, and point to the only reasonable selution the problem which will be adopted, whea able financiers, no longer blinded by self-interestand prejudice, wisely copsider the magnitude of the question with which they have to deal, and the absurdity of proposing an illy advised financial poliey which mast fail for lack of material re- sources and eapacty of supply; shaking the foundations of prosperity and tareat- ening national permanence and security. —Chieago Mining Review. BLackmer, N, C., Jan’y 22d, 884. Mr. Editor : The extremely cold, snowy, wet, muddy weather since Christmas, has held as housed up the greater part of the time, nothing turning up to break the monoton- ous spell, save the unwelcome yelp, occa- sionally, from some one of Sheriff Krider's one-arm deputies, as he sits astride his horse before our door with his tax book in his saddle-bags, looking as sedate aud determined as “Old Hickory” did when he ordered the frog-eating French to pay the American debt. Imagine our feelings as we think over that old adage, that ‘‘but two things are certain— death and taxes.” The only difference that we can now see is that the former is somewhat more in- dulgent than the latter, and has not, as we know of, increased to nearly one-third of its former proportions, as our county has dove in the matter of taxes. Whatis the matter? Some time since, we read that there were several thousand dollars in the treasury. If this be so, why put our taxes still higher? Last year, a year noted for its short crops, so much so that asa general thing farmers wili scarcely pay expenses. It is true we live iu the back woods and don’t know mach nor see wuch ; but we think we have seev enongh to form an opinion that outside of the regular routine of county expenditures, there is little else, save those two big iron safes in the Court House. And our County Commissioners have been too stingy to pay anything for the laying off of public roads where petitioned for, and badly needed ; and in some cases would not agree to ackvewledge them anless the petitioners would promise that they should never be any expense to the coun- ty. Oh, do tell us where the money goes, and what has put our taxes up? The old woman jntimated that it might be we had grown somewhat richer than we used to be; but whea we took an account of stock, and then thought of the multitude of threatening duns that we had shoved behind the elock to keep ‘them out of sight, we felt poor enough ta lean up agaiust the fence to rest. We have been living and teiling for a long time—so long that the girls have been hinting that it would be a gone case with us should the old woman take a journey to the bet- ter land—and never voted avy but a Democratic ticket. But in the future, should our taxes make another jump or two and we don’t see the reason, and the Rads will put up a set of fellows with straight hair that bave never been caught stealing, well—we won’t make any promn- ises. CLop KNOCKER. Satisfactory answers can be given to our correspondent’s questions—‘‘ where the money goes and what has pat the taxes up?” We have published repeat- edly, within the last six weeks the report of the County Commissioners of the re- ceipts and dibursements of the county funds. This report shows where the money goes, and ought to be satisfactory. We had before that published a state- ment from the County Treasurer which, though it may not explain “‘what has put the taxes up,” did show that the County Commissioners were making a proper use of the pablic funds, and doing their best to pay enlarged school expenses levied by the former board, and for which nu provision was wade. We willadvert to this subject again soon, and will endeavor to make it so plaiv that all may understant it. It only needs to be understood to show that there is nv wrong in the premises. ar . For the Watchman. Public Schéols in Kowan County. — Dear Reavers: Let as talk a little abaut public education iv our county at this season, when all the faithful commit- teemen are ing to spend the public money clog to their reapective dis- tricts fur this l year, ete., by rea- soving together, and comparing our views, let us get, if possible, a higher and healthier system of public schools. J will begin by quoting the words of Mr. Joo. Waunamaker, of Philadelphia. “By following the pattern which God bas set we can revolutionize the training of the outh of our land, both in education and abor.. This is the pattern—He extends His blessing, not to lull our powers, bat to stimulate to greater eetiviny, and His blessings are changed to curses whenever received with lethargy.” Few men have been public benefactors of the youth to a ater extent than he. Weassert then in the first place, that public aid proves a blessing of an evil, just as it is pro- ductive of one or the uther of the above named results in the recipients, If the recipient is so affected by fe as not to put forth bis own efforts, it will prove to him a caree, though intemted as a blessing ; bat if it stimulates to repewed aud great- cal life. In what light sheald we look receive the public school fund ¢ the tramp receives a favor, or as the pub- lic pauper receives the monthly allowance bat as Jacob received aid from Laban. He devised by which the small ved, grew and became a great heri and wealth to him. Let us go and do likewise. With these views deeply imbedded in my mind, I moved into this county in the year 1880, and at once tried to carry out my convictions by working up an ipter- est in education in this community. Oth- ers seon saw the painfnl fact, that the were on the their children, oat many of them m- ble, even when asked to buy for their children. A _ pablic ng was called at Enochville, during summer of 1881, at which times committee of two viz; C. W. Rose and the writer was appointed te get up, and present in writing, aplan by which the public school fund for this district would be made productive of more good than it bad form.y » b en. We were soon ready to report, which wedid at that meeting. Our plans was adopted by all present and presented to Mr. G. R. MeNe 1 the effi- cient Cousty Sapt. He was so well pleas- ed with it, that he presented it for us to the Board of County Commissioners, and it being approved by them we opened the school ane have continued it with very few changes up to the present, | will sub- mit an outline of the plan for your criticism. Ist. We desire that every child in this district shall have an opportanity to attend school free of tuition for four uwonthe in each year. 2d. We supplement the public fund so as to extend the school to ten months each year. dd. We will employ only first-class teachers. 4th. We will raise a part of the sup- pement by private subscription, and part by taking in pay scholars. Sth. All patrons in this district shall have the privilege, to select their term of four months out of the ten, at any time that suits them best. Here a word of expla- pation. Suppose a man has two dangh- ters, aud his wife is in bad health, so that one of his danghters will be kept at home: he can choose the term from July Ist to Nov. Ist, for one and from Nov. Ist to March Ist, for the other. Again suppose one of hie children is sick for the first six months, he can send him four months still free of tuition. We do not however, allow them to send one week now aud one week after awhile, and so spread their four months over the ten, as some parents would like to do, keeping their abtities athome all days fit for work, aud send them te school all inclement days, New cannot any one see that ameng farmers and the poorer class, this is giving the children three chauces to one, as our schools are gever- erally ran, viz: by just employing a teacher for four menths, and say to all pow seud, or you will loose your chance. Much of the work 0! school reform lies with the Supt. of Public Instruction in this county. Friends and patrons let us rally, and come out of the old ruts, and we will bless the rising generation. W.A. —_-—~ ae Very Young Quartz. Some but Fifteen Yeara Old—Sandstone Twelve, and Slate not Twenty. Carson Appeal. It is a generally accepted theory that quartz, sandstone, slate, etc., are geolog- ical formations which require thousands of years to form. A few days ago te Vir- ginia City conductor Havenor showed the editor of the Appeal a specimen of quartz which never could have existed over fifteen years ago. Vhe quartz in question was taken ont of the Yellow Jacket mine from between the timbers. The timbers were put in fifteen years ago, and the material forming the quartz had apparently oozed through a crack and adhered to the timber. It was about the size and had the appearauce of a caul- ifower. There was a mass rather soft and crumbling to the touch, and iu places woveu together like threads, and ino thia masa aud a part of it, were three distinct and perfectly formed quartz crystals. The masa had been pushed through the crack while iu a plastic state, and then formed inthe bunch described. The specimen in the possession of Mr. MHavenor shows where it adhered to tho timber. He also has a piece of sandstouc taken from the creek at Steveu’s mill, near Dayton. The mill was built twelve years ago, and a portion of a wooden stake driven into the ground at the time is sol- idly imbedded iv the sandstone, which is as firm and hard as any sandstone of the old sandstone period. There is a rusty nail in the wedge. About twenty years ago a spring was dug on American Flat. Week before last it was found that a hard atratification of slate had formed on the bottom. It was breken up with an ax and Mr. Havenor secared sume good specimens. The slate was balf av ivch thick, perfectly bard and brittle, and had adapted itself to the conformation of the spring, where it had formed like scales on a teakettle. Will some geologist explain how the theory will hold water that all those classes of rock are the result of thousands of years of chemical action ? ee ee What a Lie Did.

For the first time in my life I resolved to play the bully, and, assum ing what I fancied was an unconcerned expression, I said, “Good morning.” “How are you? they replied, “Going far 1” “I don't know that it js any of yonr basivess,” I replied. “I don’t want any trouble with you, forI have decided to lead a better life, Never again dol want it said that I shed the blood of a human being,”’ “A bad man, I reckon, said one of the desperadoes. ‘At one time I ceuld not have denied such an assertion ; but as I tell you, I have resolved never to kill avother man, I hope that you will not molest me,” “Hold on, pardner |” “I’ve got no time to talk.” “But hold on! what's your name?” ‘Pm Bill Peston, the outlaw, and the man of whom you have often heard. I have killed men for less than this, and I don’t want you to cause a breaking of my resolve.” “De as you like about your resolve,” said the taller of the desperadoes. “I dou’t knew who yon are, but 1 know that you are not Bill Poston the robber.” “How do you know ?” “Because Iam Bill Poston, and this is my brother.” “Oh, Lord !” I supplicated ; “have mer- cy on me!” “Climb off that horse, Cap; I reckon we'd better hang you right here.” I begged, but saw no mercy in their eyes ; 1 prayed but heard no answer. “lll teach you how to go round the country committing your depradations and laying thom on me! Fine man you are! Stole this horse, I freckon. John, get that rope off my saddle. We'll swing him up right here.” “Oh, my kind friends! I have com- mittéd no depredations. I am a candi- date for Governor of Arkansas, and I am on my way to meet an appointment at a place of discussion. You wealdn’t hang a Governor, would you? Just think of what your State would lose !” ““‘Who is your opponent ?” “Colonel Blacket.” ‘‘What kind of a fellow is he?” “He’s a bad man.” ‘‘Are you well acquainted with him?” “TI never saw him but know that he’s a bad man.” ‘‘Ie’s a much better man than you are or at least will soen exhibit more capaci- ty for executive duties than you ean pos- sibly show. In short he’ll be the liveliest man pretty soon.” “They put rhe rope around my neck. I prayed in vain; I asked the Lord to for- give my sins, and closed my eyes, every moment expecting to be drawn up. “If I let you go, will you promise nev- er again to use my name!” “I swear I won’t. Let me live and I'll be a better man. [ll do anything for for you, and, when I’m elected Governor I'll pardon you.” “All riget; you may go this time. Take off the rope, Jobn.” I mounted my horse and rode away, with tearful thankfalness and a determi- nation never to tell another lie, Next day when I reached the place of discus- sion a large crowd hadsgathered. When I approached the people were shouting with langhter. Great Alexander! Some one was relating my experience. Shor ing my way forward I recognized in the speaker the tall man who had accused me of taking his name. He was my op- ponent. I could not face the crowd, and left as rapidly as possible. The whole thing was a joke. At the election I was defeated by an overwhelming majority. a Differeuce Between the Sexcs. Philadelphia Call. Women talk for the sake of telliag what they know ; men talk to draw out what others know. When a woman becomes flarried she feels for a fan; when a man becomes flar- ried he feels for a cigar. Women jump at conclasions and gen- erally hit it; men reason things out logi- cally and generally miss it. Women always show by their actions that they greatly enjoy going to church ; men are less demonstrative. Some women can’t pass a millinery store without leoking in ; some men can’t pasa @ saloon without going in.

Mr. P.M, Wilson says thatthe Piedmont slope of. North Carolina will be the Bor- deaux district of America, Says he, “A glance af any physical map of Virginia, North Carolina, Senth Carolina and Georgia, wil] prove the wonderful advantages of situation that they possess for grape culture. A study of the geologica! formation of the slope along its eutire tread, and of the chemistry of its soil, will satisfy the enquirer (hat every varie- ty of soil of almost every grade of fertility is furnished by this sweep of country more thana_ theusand miles in length, and = varying in breath from fifty to one hundred miles, Met gical observations extending over a series of years have demonstrated the mean climate to be all that cowld be* desired for the growth uf vines; and the fruiting and ripening of the various varieties of grapes that are grown iu this belt. Humboldt gives the thermal limits of. profitable viticulture as follows: the mean annual temperature should exceed 49°, the winter temperature 64°, and the mean summer tempera- ture 60*. These limits were at Bor- deanx respectively 57°, 43°, 71°. In the middle sectivn of the Piedmout region in North Carolina, where eb- servations have been made in many localities of the State Geological Sur- vey, the cerresponding figures are O8*, 44°, 74*, anda very judicious French writer on this subject, Chav- eronvier, has) observed that the ex ceptionally good vintages correspond to the years in which a high tempera- ture characterized the vintage mouths while the thermometer ranged low in tho e years which were marked by inferior vintage; and it is well known thatiu eur South Atlantic region the summer temperature esual- ly reaches beyond the middle of Sep- tember, so that the average for that month is 70°, Another cireanstance which unmistakably indicates the climatic adaption of this region, is the great variety and Juxuriance of wild grapes. It is a well known ob- servation that the best wine coun- tries ia Europe are those in which the various native and original stocks are indigenous and abundant.” The number of vineyards in North Carolina, is already eacouragingly large, bat with the patural advanta- ges, enumerated above, it ig destined to be augmented as the eyes of our people are opened to the great source of wealth therein contained. The famous Tokay Vineyard, near Fay- etteville, owned by Hon. Wharten J. Green, is the most extensive one in indeed the largest single vineyard iu the South if net this. side of the Reeky Mountains), hand whose fue native wines bore off the premium at the Atlanta Exposi- tion, the honor being shared by Messrs. S. R. Hunt & Co., of the well known Hunt Vineyard in Vance county. This contains 113 acres, 40 of which are planted with Scupper- uong vines, and negotiations were being effected some tine since to pur- chase the Shelby Vineyard in Cleve- land county, consisting ef fifty acres, — Mr. EF.

To THE Eprror or tae Suxn—Sir: I feel myself compelled to controvert the siatement that as regards the tar- iff the platform of the Ohio Demo- crats in 1883 is vague “and may bear a double construction.” The Ohio platform, in the first place, limits the tariff to the “necessi- ties of the government economically administered.” There is certainly no vagueness there. Next, it explicitly lays down the principle that, in the application of the tariff, it shall be so adjusted as to “encourage productive industries at home but not to create or foster monopolies.” Is there any ground for a double interpretation here? The difference between encour- aging home industries and fostering monopolies is very distinct. To illus- trate: Suppose the actual difference in the cost of producing steel rails in this country and in England, as labor and other things now stand adjusted, to be $10 a ton. Then a tariff of $10 a ton, by putting our own steel in- dustries on a plane of equality in com- peting in our market with the foreign product, would encourage the produc- tion of steel rails at home. ‘Twelve dollars a ton would be more encour- agement, and it can be shown that when the tariffis but slightly above the difference in cost of production, the importer, in order to get into our market, will cut down his own profits, and to that axtent he, and not the consumer pays the duty. Now, if the tariff is not carried above,.or much above, the line that marks the difference in cost of pro- duction, there can be no monopoly, This, I think, is evident enough to anybody. But if the actual difference in cost of production is but $10 and the tariff were made $30 a ton, then it would enable the Amalgated Steel! Association to combine and put the price of steel rails to a point just un- der the importing price. That would be creating and fostering a monopoly; or, in other words, lendirg the aid of legislation to enable one class to levy charges upon another. It can be shown, tuo, that up to the point I have indicated, labor would derive the larger share of the benefit arising from such a tanff But, above that point, capital alone would be bene titted. Hence, in the Ohio platform the difference in the cost of producing commodities, as things at any time stunds adjusted, is made the datum line from which to work in the tariff, and the guiding principle laid down is encouragement of “productive in- dustries at home, but not to create or foster monopolies.” This principle differs fundameatally from that of “a tariff for revenue only,” as it does from the “maximum revenue princi- ple,” in the Walker tariff system. The different principles, as various- ly advocated, stated together are: I. “A tariff for revenue ouly;” that is, a tariff levied with a view to reve- uue only, and without regard to con- sequences, only that the required rev- enue be produced. Such a tariff may, I think, be fitly designated as a tar- iff without intelligence, and admits of none in the application of a tariff, except what ig necessary to bring in the required umount of revenue. IL. The maximum revenue princi- ple. ‘The tariff ta be levied on thing above the point that will bring the greatest revenue. This is known us the Walker principle. Ill. A tariff so adjusted in its ap- plication as to encourage productive industries at home, but not to create monopolies. IV. A tariff fur production, with- out regard to revenue, The first and fourth principles are, one the extreme view of some Demo- crats and the other the extreme Re- publican view. ‘The difference between the second and third principle may not appear at first sight, and the two have some- times been confounded, but the differ- ence is nevertheless very distinct. The maximum revenue that can be derived from any imported article is the greatest product obtainable by the tariff rate. But this rale will always, and necessarily, require a tariff below the protective or encouragement point. Thus if $10 a ton is the difference iu the actual cost of producing steel rails here and abroad, then nothing under $10 a ton tariff will be protection evough to put our own steel indus- tries on a fuoting of equality in com- peting for the home market. But this is not the point.of maximum rev- enue. With a tariff of $10, on the supposition that this covers fully the difference in cost, half or more of the home consuuiption would be supplied from the home product. If the whole annual consumption is 2,000,000 tons, and say only one-fourth of this comes in as a furiegn product and pays the duty of $10, then the revenue deriv- no- OctoberS23d, 1283, ed would be $6,000,000. Bat if the —- Jarift were lowered to $7.50, any ui- a tariff a million tons came in, the foreign manufacturer the entire market here and 2,000,000 tons should then come in, the revenue would be $10,000,000. This is plain that the point of maximum revenue is always, necessarily below the protective point. The Ohio platform squarely adopts the principle of encouragement to home industries, but so guarded as not build up menopolies as the true principle, and makes the difference in the cost of production, as things may stand adjusted at any given time, the terpretation. ter paid labor or other legitimate tion, not merely incidental. enue only. iff for revenue sufficient only for the ple of intelligent er reasonable industries at home. this principle, whenever it is possible, platform, A.

But imperial Cesar, who in. 46 B.C. gave us onr new year governed by caprice of reasons of the most temporary duration, de- parted from the former Roman sys- tem of reckoning the year from the winter solstice and made the co.n- mencemenut on January 1 for no bet- ter reason than the desire to inaugu- rate his reform with a new noon. The Cesarean system, devised by the aid of Losigenes, constituted the ordinary yearot 365 days and the foutth or exttaordigary year of 366. The subdivision of the year into wonths was similar to the present system, The division of time, though imperfect, is stil] practiced in Russia, Lhe ¢évror was iu giving the year 365 1-4 days, which is too much by about eleven mjuntes. Pope Gregory time, occurs on years which afe not multiplies of 4)0 should not be! leap years, which emis- sion of three leap years in every 400 years gives the civil yeur an average length of 365 days, 5 hours, 49 min- utes aml 12 seconds, which still ex- ceeds the trhe solur year by a frac- tion ofa secaqnd, which amounts toa day ouly iu 8,866 yedrs. The present or Gregorian, system is used by all Christendom, except Russia. It was udopted by England in 1742 and by France in 1564. Prior to the reformation of the cal- endur by Julius Cesar, and many centuries afterward, the methods of dividing time were various, eompli- cated and imperfect. ° The moon was the plauet whieh inflaenced and gov- erned most nativns, aud gaye rise to universal variance between the natur- al and civil year.

The tax, pious in itgelf, is intensified by the mode of its collection. As svou as the necessity ceases the iuternal tax should pease.

The Programme in the South to Arthur Delegates. Secure From the Charlotte Observer. WasuHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 12.—The re- cently published declaration of Messrs. Chandler and Hatton, the President's political managers, that Mr. Arthur will make no effort to succeed himself as President, seems to have been promulga- ted to allay suspicion. There is unda- bitable proof to show that both Chandler and Hatton have for weeks been engaged in giving private instryctions to special agents of the Postoftice and Treagury Departments, and the Pension office, lookipg to au judustrious working up of ao Arthur boom io the South. This information was divulged bya number of special agents whoare not friendly to Arthur interest. Each agent was apecially instructed as the strongest arguments to use among the Southern Republicans, so as to facilitate the election of Arthur delegates to the Chicago convention. During the past wouth seores of Federal officeholders from the South have been here, and were closeted witn Chandler and Hatton. These were the identical methods so notoriously resurted to by Secretary John Shefman, in 1380, aud which were so generally coudemned by the press, and by nove with more vigor than by Mr. Hatton, in the Burlingtum Hawkeye. At ao early day a full list of these agents will bo furrished the press, designating the particular localities inte which they have Leen sent to manufacture delegates iv Mr. Arthur’s interest. a Snow Bounp.—On Tuesday, the west bound train for the first time in the his- tory of the mountain section of the road was snow bound. Arriving at Round Knob for breakfast, the track beyond was buried under a waste of snow. Not even the outlive of the road was to be seen. Cupt. Newland was equal to the occasion. Cutting loose from his train, and leaving his passengers comfortable in the hotel, he started with the engine to explore the way and force a passage through the drifts. These, in some of the cuts, were ten feet deep and thirty or for- ty feet through ; but by rushing into them with a full head of steam, all were suc- cessfully pierced, and the track was made clear to the mouth of Swannanoa tunnel, and the train cawe through t6 Asheville, thuugh going no farther that day. Some delay was experienced in addition, the wacer tanks being all frozen up, add the pipes solid ice. Capt.

Asa matter of policy, and with the view of really drawing money and labor to ur, would it not be more advisable to spend the same amount of money ip making a creditable display, aay in London. The Exposition, if made at Raleigh will bea success, financially ; for our people will flock thither in sufficient uumbers to gratify any skeptic as to the State pride of our people. This would be a kind of success, that kind which pays a fair fair percent ou money in- vested by the Exposition Company, but touching the other and more important qubstion of filliog our State with a popa- lation of industrious and menied peo— ple, there is asuggestion that the pro- po8ed Exposition would preve inefficient, avd’ ip that respect disappeint in some manner the expectations of the people, Oue other view in its favor would be the advantages it would afford our people in educating themselves as to the true con- dition of the native resources and possi- ble outcome of the State. But few Caro- linians, (and they were of the most in- telligent class,) visited Boston during the Exposition, were not surprised to find that their native State produced many things of which they had no knowledge.

A Riyal af Quinine, A German medical journal disouas a new medical agent lately diseovered by Pro- fessor Fischer, of Munich. In the course of a long series of investigations cencern- ing the nature and action of quinine, be found that by means of a series of chemi- cal transformations a substance can be obtained, in the form of a white crystal- line powder, from coal tar, which greatly resembles quinine inits action on the human organism. Fischer has given it the pame of ‘‘kuirin.” Thechief effect produced by it, as yet observed, as the rapid diminution of feverheat, and its efticiéncy in this respect is described as remarkable. It is believed that it will render the use of ice in fever cases un- necessary, and that skillful employ went will enable the physician to moderate the temperature of the patient. Kairin is also reported to have less inconven- ience for the stomach than quivine. But observation does not show—as set, at least—that it possesses that tonic aud influence for which quinine isso frequently administered. Perhaps from a chemical and physiological point of view, the moat valuable thing about the new discovery is that it seems ta bring us nearer to finding out the chemi- cal natuse of quinine itself and the true character of its agency. The discovery has been patented and a@ manufactory ot kairin established, under the direction of Professor Laubenheimer, of Glesseu. But, as it is said that the coat of produ- ¢ing a kilogramme (about 354 ounces) ef the new agentis £15, it will be some time before its patrons can hepe to see it take the place cf Quinine in practical restorative pharinacy. ——- —-—- ghee the sentiment of Ddness I : ‘N ae ais recall his ean ie lospitality, his self sacri- D the fest ‘ Maly in the days that put hs men.— News & Ne Virtues of Chres a thousand | The Commissioners of New Hanover | county granted license to 75 firms te re- | tail liqnor the first Monday of this jm@iuth, This suerte has a population of about 23,000 and nota single retail j bar room. “Our Women in the War.” The News and Courier, Charleston, 8.C., desires to obtain fifty or nore sketches of the experiences, grave or guy, lively or severe, of the Southern women during the war. Little has been published bitherto concerning their safferings, anxieties or privations, and the News and Courier wishes to make the record of the war complete, by giving the American public a just idea of what the Southern women eudured during the struggle for the Lost Cause. There was comedy as well as tragedy in their daily life, and the ebject is to obtain descriptions of every side and phase of a Southern woman's trials and triumphs, at home or.as a refugee, during the Confederate struggle. The sketches in question will be pablished in the Week- ly News, Charleston, S. C., under the gen- eral title of “Our Women in the War.” The conditions are as follows : 1. The sketches must be written by Southern women who were in the South during the war, and shall be contined to a description of events and circumstances of which the writers have personal know!l- edge, and with whieh they or their fami- lies were connected. 2. Each sketch shall fill not less than fifteen or more than thirty pages of foole- cap, written on one side. 3. The sketches shall be sent, with the real name of the writer, to the News and Courier, Charleston, 8. C., not later than March Ist, 1884. 4. Every sketch that ia accepted will be promptly paid for, aud any Southern woman who desires to do so can send jp two or more sketches, The object in view is certainly an ex- cellent one, and it is hoped that Southern women everywhere will do their part io making the undertaking successful, ‘tin order,” as the Newa and Courier saya, ‘tthat tardy justice may be rendered to “the women who encouraged the sold*+ts ‘“‘by their patient fertitude and solaced “them with words of cheer, and _ who, “through all manner of hardship, of an- ‘‘guish, of misery, were faithfal and true “to the very end— and after!” * -—-~—_)>>——-— - A Training School for Head and Hand, The Chicago Manual Training School has recently been incorporated, the ovject of its foundation being instruction and practice inthe use of tools, with such instruction as may be deemed necessary in mathematics, drawing, and the Eng- lish branches of a high sehoel course.

In the camel the union takes place at eight, in the horse at five, in the lion st four, in the dog at two, in the rabbit at one. The nataral termination is five removes frem these several points. Man being twenty years in growing lives five times twenty yeare—thaf is 100 ; the camel is eight years in growing, and lives forty years ; and so with other avimals. The man who does net die of sickness lives everywhere from 80 to 100 years. The professor divides life iuto equal halves—growth and decline—and these into infancy, youth, virility, and age. Infancy extends to the twentietl. year, youth to the fiftieth, because it is in this peried the tissues become firm, virility from fifty to seventy-five, during which the organization remaius complete and at seventy-five old age commences to last alonger or shorter time as the diminution of reserved forces is hastened or retarded. —-+--¢@- s— Heavy Work with THE DIAMOND Dri__.—We have lately seen samples of cores cut by the diamond drill that are jarvelously curious.

Now there are bat 5,000 inhabitants, nearly all miners and gamblers ; the fine houses are all car- ried away or abandoned ; real estate can- not be sold for the amount of the taxes; pothing can be sold which is not worth | carrying away ; and ina little time the gorgeous city must entirely disappear.

Cox, of the Ral- eigh district, has introduced a bill to change mode of eollecting the inter- val rev€hues. It will never pass. Those who profess themselves willing to have the method of collecting. changed, can never agree among themselves upon a method, such hair splitters are they. There is no compromise between allow- ing the system to remain as it is and wiping it out totally.—Statesyille Land- mark. Mr, Cox is doubtless as thoroughly persuaded as the editor of the Landmark that his bill will never pass, but it will serve him io bis next campaign when the people demand what he did towards ful- tilling the Demoeratic pledge against the Infernal Reveuue system. All this talk about changing the mode of collecting is the veriest clap trap. It is impractica- ble, and as the Landmark so justly ob- serves there is no compromise betwoen allowing the system,to remain as it is and wiping it out. totally.—Asheboro Courier. OE OO oe New York, Jan. ]2—The failure of J. M. Fuller & Co. is a bad one. The firm never recovered from their trouble about two months ago. The failure of W.C.

Brandreth’s Pills bave stood the test of forty- five years of use by the Amertcan people. They are entirely Vegetable. They are absolotely universal, for there is no disease they will not cure, if taken in time. They are safe for infants and adulta. They aim to ac- complish three things: firat, to purify the blood; second, to cleanse and regulate the stomach and bowels; third, to stiinnlate the kidneys and liver and purge away the ashes of the sye tem and diseased matters of the body. By pur- ging wi.b these Pills constantly, a new body can be built up from fresh, healthy food in a few months. 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 every night for a month. twenly years’ standing, gentlemen have been cured by tuking 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 changea of the youthful body.

They were at first taken asa “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 lo 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 means About six year ago I was taken with what appeared to be a bad cold, but in a ehort time, symtome of confluent Small Pox were developed, causing us much alarm, I determined to try Brand. reth’s Pills as a remedy, and their efficacy was soon apparent.

Twenty-five yearsis a long time for a man to live the life of a recluse, and yet this was the fate of ove who died the other. day, who fled to the wilderness of Northern Maine and lived that period of time as a hermit, His name was William Cunningham, a native of Washington in Knox county.

When he grew up to manhood, like other humans he fell in lovey and his love was reciprocated by as pretty a girl as was to be found in the town, and one of good parentage. It is said that®t was a remarkable instance of devotion ov both sides. She happea- ed, however, to die suddenly, and it was her decease that completely upset him, Foreighteen montis he led a his little property, went to Bangor, thence to Oldtuwn, where he did a little lumbering business, and finally brought up in the region of Moosehead Lake, where he worked in the woods in winter,and on farms in Sum- iner. About the year 1848 he worked in the Jogging swamp near Chesurcook Lake, wid inthe Spring he felled some trees on the shores of the lake ov land belonging te the State and acamp. For three years he lived here, clearing up land and and sel!ing the products of the soil te the Jumbcrnmen., He was a large, muscular ian, avd, though posse sii g great pliysica) strength, he lacked euergy aoc perseverance. Occassion- ally be would buve his sprees. While absent, sume onc, as he supposes, set fire to bis camp and burned all his tools, clothing und camp outfit. Tins disaster had such a depress- ing effect that he never fully recov- ered his former cheerfulness of mind, He, however, built another camp, and had avery good house. [fe cleared up same twenty five acres of land, built a log barn, and = raised hay aud oat«, ile made a two whieele ed hod eartto haul his hay, on which he was able to transport 300 or 400 ponnds at a load. He had no disposit.on any one and itkeal peace. About the year 1862 he worked in the logging swamp, aud had trouble in settling his accounts in the Spring, the com- pany for which he had worked claim- ing he was indebted to it some $14. This he declined to pay. He was sued, and his little farm, which was worth $800, was attached and sold, and he was driven away from home by officers of the law. This blow completely broke him down, He went still further down the lake, built another camp more remote from human habitation, and there worked just enough to precure the coarsest food and scanticst clothing. The re- mainder of his time was spent in idleness, During the war of the re- bellion he paid a visit to his sister in Rockland, on which occasion he was dressed in Continental style. lle tried to imitate George Wash- ington in his garb, and declared that Le was done with the world. Last June he was stricken with paralysis, and for six days he lay helpless upon the ground, unable to get toad or drink. During this time he was terribly tor- meuted by swarms of black flies and inosquieroes, die was found by natives ina famished condition, With one hand (the ether Leing palsied) he had excavated a large pile of earth by his side, vainly cndavoring to draw hiw- self toward food aud water. He was brought to Greenville and kindly cared for, but vething could save him, and he died on tie Ist inst., at the aye of 65. log tow rong to live i lis -“4b - Rich Duuces and Poor Scholars, There is one thing worse than ig- nerance: itis to dispise knewledge, Ignorance way be a misfortune, but the man who reviles the knowledge he does not possess, shows and iguoble nature. An article is going the rounds of the newspapers entitied “Results of Education,” the object of which is to show hew much better it is to bea rich ignoramus than a poor scholar. The author selects cases to prove hie pout. A rich cattle king who had a year’s schooling, aud who still thinks William the Conqueror and William the Fourth were one and the same person, is worth two millions, and bas three cierks in Lis employment who were college graduates, Another man, whose doting pa- rents scrimped and saved to send him to college and who graduated with honors, is now forty years of age, and makes school-bouks for a rich publisher fur fifteen dollars a week, Imagine a long string of such ex— amples, given to show that he who would thrive in this world must abandon his school, throw aside his books and go into the gtrect and struggle for pennies. Every state- ment in this article may be true, and yet the article itself be a falsehood, for nothing lies with such ferce as truth. ‘Phat is, truth porverted and mistied, cau be made to cenvey an impression completely erroneous. Now, there actually was a college graduate cuiployed by a publisher of: ith that raison af Bat not the w zi *, | ard.

It cannot impart the quality of mastership, which makes one man forward and take the lead, and 5 want of which makes it far better for most men to follow, In New York there is many of these wealthy ignorant mer, whom unfortunately our youth are advised to imitate. As a class, they are well- known to be both ridiculons, reckless aud coarse iu ‘speech and habits. They do not know what to do with themselves or with their money, un- less it be to go grinding on, adding to their preposterous burthens. Some of them try to conquer ennui, and to place themselves above the position to which their lack of education as- ‘¥igna them, by building beautiful palaces, or by making rare collections, of which they really appreciate noth- ing but the cost. Others parade their littlevess in the harbors of the world protected by a flag to which their lives added no lustre. One of the absurdest, nay, one of the most threatening and terrible spectacles which our imperfect civili- zrtion affords, is an ignorant, common vulgar man, with millions ef dollars at his command—millions which spoil him, corrupt his relations and blast his children.— Youth’s Companion. ae The descendants of the Revolution- ary soldiers are organizing in this city for the purpose of commemora- ting Revolutionary events.

Sec. 2. That from and after the passage of this act every person de- siring to operate a distillery of spirits of less capacity than thirty gallons per day shall apply to and obtain a icense. therefor from the collector of the collection district in which he re- sides, and at the time of filing his ap- plication for said license shall tender his bond, with two sufficient sureties, conditional for his faithful observance of the internal revenue laws and the payment of all taxes for which he may become liable; and said bond shall be fer double the amount of taxes on spirits which the capacity of his dis- tillery could produce per annum. Sec. 3. That no ove man nor com- pany of men shall obtain a license for more than one distillery, unless the combined capacity of his or their dis- tilleries shall be less than thirty gallons per day ; and for each license there shall be paid the following tax: Yo distill fruit, twenty-five dollars ; aud to distill grain or other material, on stills of a capacity not exceeding six gullons per day, twenty-five dul- lars ; exceeding six and not exceeding ten gallons per day, fifty dollars; ex- ceeding ten and not exceeding twenty gallons per day, séventy-five dollars ; above that and net above thirty gal - laps per day, one huaodred dollars. Bers 4. That each disstiller under said liczuse shall render, upon oath, twice -Gevernor. distiller of grain for the year covered by his license be less than one-half the amount that would be due the Government, provided his distillery had been run to its full capacity for every day, connting three hundred working days to the year. Sec. 5..That in.all .cellection dis- tricts wherein eighty per centum of all the registered distilleries shall not exceed the said capacity of thirty gal- lons per day, the salaries of collectors of internal revenue be two thousand | dollars per annum, and in addition thereto they shat] be paid five per centum on all moneys actually col- lected, which shall be in lieu of all allowanees for clerks, deputy collee- tors, office rent, and otlier expenses as | now allowed by law and regulations. Sec. 6, That the Secretary ef the Treasury shal! make al! needful rules and regulations for earrying this act into effect. A Political Seeret Out. Arthur’s Friends Trying to Steal a March on the Enemy. New York World. The friends of Arthur are quietly considering the advisability of doing away with congressional district con- ventions, believing that such a step would materially aid Mr. Arthur in securing delegates to the Chicage con- veution, It is claimed by those who are identified with this movement that the rule for electing the national delegates adopted by the Republican National Committee does not compel or Inake it? obligatory to hold cous gressional district couveutions. Nor is the rule explicit that the delegates shall be chosen by such conventions. The only requirement is that they shall be selected by congressional dis- tricts and shall not be instructed by the State conveution to vote as a unit or otherwise. ‘The four delegates at large and their alternates must, lhow- ever, be selected by the State cunven- tion. Accordingly the convention niust be held, ‘taud,” as one of the leaders of the movement says, “why should not all the delegates be select- ed at that gathering and thus save the expense und trouble of thirty-four separate congressional district ventions, con- i a — Modify the System. North Carolina is deeply interested in securing legislation on the inter- nal revenue. The Democrats of this State desire the tetal wiping out of the statutes on the subject. But what is desirable is not a] ways practicable. The people who have borne se much at the hands of the internal revenue bureau will feel an intense relief when the agents of that tyranny are remov- ed from the State. There are two ways of removing these agents—by abolishing the tax or by retaining the tax and changing the mode of collect- ing it. Ask the people which they prefer as a direct proposition, there would be no hesitation in the response that they prefer the excisien of the entire system. But they-will tell you that if they cannot get that they will accept gladly the latter plan. Now there is really some doubt whether it would be possible for the Democra- cy, even if it controlled both Houses and the President, to abelish both tax and machinery. There is very little doubt, if any, that some modification of the mode of collection can be se- cured, With this statement of the siuation, and the statement we feel assured is correct, what ought the North Caor- lina members to do?

That’s the main question, always taking it for grant- ed that all Democrats are right in principle. The talk about “rings” is humbuggery, and the “same old, old story.” We don’t believe any Demo- crat is silly enough to oppose a man because he favored Mr, Randall for Speaker or because he opposed him.— Home & Democrat. It now appears that Senator Vance did not authorize the statement pub- lished in some of the papers to the effect that he would vote against Sena- tor Butler’s bill to repeal the internal revenue laws.

For a dozen years past, when- ever a Senator wanted a private sec- retary without paying forthat luxu- ry from his own pocket, he has log- ‘rolled and lobbied among his asso- ciates until he has secured enough yutes to create a Hew committee, of which he should be chairman. Then a resolution would be offered provid- ing for the said committee and au- thorizing the appointment of a clerk, This has gone on until the limit has been reached, and it hat heen found absolutely possible to devise even ‘the thin f pretexts for more committees, There is nothing like it in any legislative body in the world. ‘The Senate with 74 members has be- tween forty and ay com mittecs, fully one-half of which baye no pub- lie business whatever to transact from one year’s eud to another.

The beautiful and highly-cultivat- ed daughter of one of the proud eld Roman nobles, the Duke of Galleses, | was introduced to the Italian poet, | Signor D’Annunzio. Her kinsfolk.| never dreamed that a lady of such | great expectations and high birth tance with a man risen from the low- er ranks. ted together, but, while the young la-- dy’s friends supposed that sle was talking of intellectual matters, it turn- ed out that the conversation of the interesting couple turned ina yery different direction. Duke learned, to his horror and anger, that his daugh- ter had dared to betroth herself to the poet. Asa matter of course, lie refused to give his sanction to their marriage, whereupon the lovers took the train to Florence, where they were made man and wife. This last step made the Duke so indignant that he had a legal documont drawn up by which he disinherited his daughter ; but the father and the man afterwards so far overcame the aristocrat in him that he settled upon her for life a yearly income of 6,000 lire.

By this plan all the elements of value in | the original Lones are preserved without loss. By the first plan the ammonia is all lost. But the most effective fertilizer | ia made by dissulving the bones with sul- phurie acid, as fullews: Break the bones as fiucly as possible—the fiver the better. Place them in a close wooden vessel—a half hogshead is good—and cover them with water in which has been dissolved some strong potash or lye, or sprinkle strong ashes—with a little lime—through- out the entire mass aad then eover with water. Let the mass stand several days until the potash or lye has had time to unite with the grease that is in the bones. Then add sulphuric acid slowly and stir- ring the mass thoroughly antil there have been added one hundred pounds of acid for each two huudred pounds of dry bones. ‘The water used in soaking the boues should be equal in weight to the bones, or about twice the weight of the acid. After two or three days, with oc- casional stirring, the mass will become very tough and thick—something like a stiff wud, and must be promptly dried by wixing with rich dry earth, plaster or road dust, Great care is beeessary in handling sulphurie acid, as a drop falling on the clothes or skin will make a hole or a sore. No ore but a habitually care- ful person should be pernntted to handle it. -_—\—-~<—bo—_——_— The Time to Kill a Hog.

The revolution in public sentiment abroad in regard to the material resources of the State is shown ; and the moral effect of this concession upor our own people is dwelt upon asa thing of priceless good to tije State. Al- together, the review is highly creditable to the Commissioner, whose best abilities pave been brought to bear on this sub- in the furtherance of the State’s de- sign in the enterprise. Much praise is @ Commissioner McGelice for the suc- gees with whieb it was carried out. They have a real povelty in the way of ge excitement in the Shenandoah valley of Virginia. A lady who was raised in the county and who has always been known as Elizabeth Rebeceg Payne, the daughter of a respectable man, and con- ptantly associatiug witl) respectable peo- le, has suddenly turned out to be amar, and applied for a license to marry a Miss Hinton. The clerk of the Court at Win- chester refused a license, but Payne pro- daced tlie certificate of Dr. P. W. Maguire, ef that city, proving his sex. There was still a difficulty iu the matter of a name jndicating the sex, which was to beremedi- ed by the Coyrt jn March next. Rumor says the couple went to West Virginia and are now married. No explantion is given why Payne lived for 38 years in flisguise.

I had blistered it several times and concluded that my horse would never get over being lame. Five weeks ago to-day I commenced using Ken- dall’s Spavin Cure and after using it three weeks the lameness entirely disappeared. It has been worth $80.00 to me. H. H. Howse. Mount Prairie, Minn., Sept. 24, 1883, Dr. B. J. Kenpari Co., Gentlemen :— Last Spring I had a valuable young horse that from some cause got a very large lump about half way on his shoulder and was very lame for a long time. I had the best borse doctors examine her, some called it one thing some another, one said the shoul- er was broken but none could cure it. After I had tried the cure I went and bought one bottle of Kendall’s Spavin Cure, I did not use one half of it before it was all smooth and clean. Lameness all gone too. As a horse liniment it is invaluable. Respectfully, ANDREW ORR. Tawas City, Mich., Sept. 1, 1883. Messrs B. J. KENDALL Co., Gentlemen:— Please send me a package of Prof Flints Conditign Powders.

Plant beds may be made and seed sown, any time from the middle of December to the middle of March--the earlier the better. Careful- ness in the selection of loeation and pre- paration of the seed bed always pays. You can get the best kind of seed from Mr. Sheppard, of the Kluttz Warehouse, for the asking. Sow the borders of your bed iu black- mustard for the fly, which plant they pre- fer tothe tobacco. Or it is said the bug or fly may be fenced out by setting up 12 joch boards all around the bed, taking care to stop cracks uudcrnoeath them aud where they join. --——-v Har.—It is within the memory of our citizens. county and town, that this was a fow years ago one of the best Hay Mar- kets in the State.

It is well known to business men everywhere that quality in any farm product is an essen— tial thing, and that it is impossible to get good remunerative prices for inferior articles. Hay is always in fair dewand and good hay is sure to bring fair prices.

The place has got to be quite woral, All through the holidays there were no drunken men to be seen on the streets; no loud talking or swearing. It almost seemed like Sunday, except a few colored triends with guos and dogs after game. The place is doing a lively business in cotton. They have two steam gins, aud ginned about four hundred bales this season, and it was a bad year for cotton. It is different here from. most places: farmers sell their cotton in the seed, taking fifteen cents less ou the hun- dred pounds, thus estimating the seed at fifteen ets. per bushel. Several thousand bushels of seed bave been shipped to the oil mills. They are buying a good deal of coru in small lots at 65 cents. Itisa good place for barter, such as corn, flour, wheat, peas, oats, butter, eggs, chickens, furs, &c. Another store will probably go up by next summer, which will make tive.

Dear Editor : I see in the Code of North Carolina, Chapter 65, Sec. 3,850, “Weight of bush- els of grain—penalty for taking greater Weight,” &c, which gives the law of Weights as follows : Rice 44 Ib. Rye 56 © Buckwheat 50 Ib. Peas 50 and so.on. Since the writer got his Code he has called the attention of others to the change in the corn and pea weights ; also oats is 30 lbs, instead of 32, Would like you to see whether this standard governs the weighing of these articles of produce, and report through your paper for the benefit of myself and others. Hoping to see au explauation of the same. Respecttully, Wheat 60 Ib. Corn 54 * “ J. H. Rice, On inquiring into this subject we find that there has been no new evactment regulating the weights of the above and other farm products since 1856-57. In- deed, it is not certain that apy change was made at that time, though the stan- dard found in the Code is accredited to that date. The standard weights of Chapter 65, referred to aboye, go back, (some of them at least,) more than a hundred years; but the custom of the country has varied from it. And while it is true that they are the law of the land, Section 3,837 of the above Chapter, prevides thata differept rate may be agreed on by parties in commercial transactions and that such agreement shall be lawful. So that the esseutial point ip any transaction is the agreement made before hand between the parties as to what namber of pounds shall consti- tute a bushel. Without such ap agree- ment the seller has a right to claim the stutute rates. a a ee ee ee eee T.K. BRUNER, MANAGER.

The pro- perty, which is the base of this colossal! orgapvization, is the “Morehead end” of the famous Conrad Hill property . in Davidson county. The cempany, which is known as the “Originul Conrad Hill Gold and Copper Mining Company” was erganized under the Laws of Kentucky, with W. P. Conrad, President, and H. S. Irwin, Secretary, both of Louisville, Ky, The capital stock is 86,000,000, and there are but nine original steckhel ders. Thirty-five thousand dollars worth of this stock bas sold, and a complete plant of all the latest and best machinery is to be built, to cest not less than the amount named. This proper, the Conrad Hill, was dis- covered in 1828, and has been worked with more or less success, (dependipg on the evergy aud skill employed,) since that time. A record from 1834 shows a flattering yield. ‘The fact that Conrad Hill, owned and run by Mr. Jas. E. Clay- ton, is now in successful operation, and as shafts of Mr. Claytou’s rich ore yield- ing mines, is only afew feet from the line of tlie ‘‘Morehead end” and is part of the same vein and formation, leads to the belief that this mine, under the new organization, if managed in the same intelligent and basinesg way as has char- acterised Mr. Clayton’s management, must yield ina fair paying rate on the investment. Mr. M. H. Pinnix, is one of the stock - holders in this new organization—prob- ably the only one in Davidson county.

Hooker, oo bis home farm near Hookerton, says the Suow Hill Telegraph, raised on 100 acres, 100 bales of cotton, averaging 400 pounds each. If any one can beat the re- cord that Greene county is making we would be glad to hear from him. Referring tothe above, the Kinston Free Press says: Mr. Hooker put uo more labor on that one hundred acres after it was plunted than is puton many hun- dred acres that prodace less than fifty bales. Our farmers can afford to make cotton at nine cents if they will make it with less labor. Plant no more than can be well manured, and less extra labor will be needed in cropping tiie. The spreading domain of king Cotton. —While the South is complaiuviug of too much cotton and the press is ad- vising areduction jn its acreage, the great Southern staple is inyading new territory. The cotton country has ex- tended greatly since the war, and States like Virginia and Missouri, which knew nothing whatever of cotton twenty years ago, have lately produced large quanti- ties of it. The plant seems to be travel- ing North and West. and we now hear of it under cultivation in California and Kansas. In the Sacramento Valley of the Pacific coast, whose climate is very similar to that ef the Southern States, it thrives and yields well. The Kansas ex- periment is even more recent, and dates from the large exodus of negroes into the State. Accoording to the Kansas City Times the experiment has been a success. Cot- ton gins have been established at various points inthe State and have plenty of material to work on.

The recent “sunsets of fire,” which have been observed ia this country have lind their counterpart in England. A cor- respondent at Haslemere, Surrey, writes to Nature on the 10th ult: “Yesterday evening a most extraordinary sunset ef- fect was seen here, which made a deep impression on all who observed it. The sky was nearly clear when the sun set at eighteen minutes past four, and the air transparest. A few cirrocumulus fleeces became lighted up with a pink and then with a deep red color- immediately after sunset. A very peculiar greenish and white opalescent haze now appeared abeve the point of the sun’s departure, and shone as if with a light of its own, near the horizen. The apper part of the pearly mist soon assumed a pink col- or, while the lower part was white, green and greevish yellow. About twenty-five miuutes to five the sky from near the horizon toward the zenith bad begun to turn to a brilliant but delicate pink, and some pink cirrus like streaks stretched horizontally toward the southeast. “As rs, eur on, the pink glow seemed to in ee iv brightness, and at five o'clock cast a fine weired light over the hills. At twenty-five minutes past five the greater part ofthe color was gone, and the cloud remained bright only pear the horizun. At t@enty-eight miu- utes to six, however, it began to grow again and in a short time (twenty min- ates to six) the whole extent of the film was again glowing bright pink, produc— ing a most striking effect in contrast with the silvery moon, dark sky and bright stars in the north and east. The piok light thea slowly withdrew toward the horizon, remaining bright and low dewn to ten minutes to six. At eight minutes to six the last pink disappeared. The whole phenemwenon, from first to last was in the highest degree peculiar and striking.” The writer thinks that the phenomenon was due to cirras or a Ligh- er kind of cloud on which the sunshing remained long after sunset. We had a very similar phenomenon last Tuesday evening. ——_—_~<>- Comparative Statistics. Below we make a comparison of the agricultural condition of North Carolina with that of Massachusetts, Pennsylva- nia, Indiauaand Kansas. The figures are drawn from the census report and may be taken as correct : The value of the farmsin Massachu- setts is $146,197,000; implements, §5, - 134,000; live stock, $12,950,000; re- pairs ; $618,000; total invested in agri- culture, $165,000,000 ; the produets were $24,000,000, or abont 14 per cont. on the investment. The figures for Pennsylvania are; ments, $35,473,000; live stock, $84,242, - $5,500,000 ; total invest- ment, $1,101,000,000 ; the preducts were $129,760,000—say 12 per cent. Indiana had farms to the value of $635,216,000 ; implements, €20,476,000 ; live stock, $71,000,000 ; repairs, $3,350,- 000 ; total investment, $730,000,000 ; the products were $114,707,000 or 16 per cent. Kansas had in farms, $235,178,000 ; implements, $15,652,000; live stock, $60,907,000 repairs, $1,687,000; total in- vestment,, $#214,000,000; the products were $52,240,000—about 17 per cent. Nerth Carolina had in farms $135,- 793,000 ; implements, $6,078,000 ; in live stock, $22,414,000 ; repairs, $1,869,654 — total investment, $166,000,000; tetal products $51,729,611; akpat 32 per cent. On the value of property in agri- culture North Carolina obtains by way of products 32 per cent. which is about twice the per cent. yielded in Kansas and Indiava, and morethan twice the per cent. yielded in Pennsylvania and Massachusetts. ‘This does nut take inte censideration the cost of labor.» Labor at the North is higher than with us—but then it works to better advantage. There ie no reason why Northern farmers can- not labor just as efficiently here as in the Nerthern States. With one balf the investment here, the Northern emigrant will make as) much io North Carolina as becan atthe North. That’s the point we wish to bring out. Ifa farmer in any of the Northern States hasan _ invest- ment of $5,000 it yields him, not count- ing lis labor, say $800; the same invest- ment at the South would yield him $1,600, not eounting labor.—News and Observer. —- Food for Reflection. In an interview with Piesident An- drews yeaterday we learnt that the track laying on the Western Divisioa of the W.N.C.R. R., was progressing very favorably, aud that he would bave the iron laid to Waynesville, in Haywood couuty, within thirty days, and te Web- ster, Jacksou county, by the 4th of June. Heexpects that bis read will reach the mouth ot the Nantehala before the first of September. Aud so it happens that the year ef grace, 1584, will be remem- bered iu the annals of North Carolina. We will probably havea tri-centenuial celebration of the landing at Roanoke in July 4, 1584; the State Exposition ; aod the opening up of the Western country — : 260 an empire within itself—by the roaring say that we will have a good fishing |. season this year.

There is to be blood shed on an upexampled scale in all quarters of the globe. The astrologer’s prediction will not cause much uneasiness, for the present at least. Nobody will take any stock in it so long as the signs of blood are connected only with the red sunset, and there is no blood to be seen on the moon.— Erie Herald. Some Raxpotrn Inposrreres,—The Island Ford factory takes it name from an island in the middle of the river and the low ford at that place. It turns out 4-4 sheeting exclusively. Mr. Hugh Parks is secretary and treasurer and owns half of both factories. There are fifty looms and 1,664 spindles, with a capacity of about 3,000 yards per day. There are seventy five hands in the Franklinsville bag factory, three-fourths of whom aré females. These bags are sold mostly in. New York, where they bring a ready price. There are thirty looms, and 1,250 spindles{are in full blast. The capacity is about 1,400 bags per day. —Ashebera Courier. Guiteau’s ghost must be after them, it would seem from the following which we clip from a Washington letter to the Au- gusta, Ga., Chronicle: “Gyiteau pre- dicted that District-Attorney Corkhill weuld be officially decapitated by Presi- dent Arthur. This prophetic utterance has been afartlingly realized. Vhe uu- canny Corkbill, in spite of Mr. Justice Miller, has actually been removed by the man who became President by the death of Garfield! Two of Guitean’s jurors became insane. Dr. NoblejYoung, whose testimony doemed the crazy fool to death, died within s year afterward. And now Corkbill, the District Attorney, is official- ly beheaded! He ought to take his head under bis arm and visit Guiteau’s skele— top at the National Medical Museum. re Mr. Hardeman, of Georgia, has intro- duced a bill in Coygress providing that no Territory shall hereafter be admitted into the Union as a State until its perma- nent popalation equals that required for a congressional district, conrmenting up- on which the Philadelphia Record makes the following level beaded remarks: ‘It would be improved if it were 80 amended as to require a permanent populatien suf- ficient for two representative ratios. A State with ope Representative and twe Senators is lop-sided. In the Senate it can veto the will of four millions of peo- ple living in New York ; in the House it bas ouly a man for man opportunity to It ought not to,have more votes to begin with in the upper than ip the lower House. em Minnesota Manners. The new chief clerk of the Senate, who hails frow Miunesota, has brought some free and easy ways with him which are rather unpalatable in the atmosphere of sevaturial dignity. During one of the recent discussiens im the executive sess— ion of the Senate on the Mexican treaty this official became rather weary of listen- ing tothe speech ef a Senator who had taken twoor three hours in expressing his views. He therefore pulled out of his pocket one of the great dailies of Minnesota, plaeed achair in the arena fronting the President of the Senate, planted hiwself iu it, with his back to to the Senators, tilted it up on the hind legs, and resting his feet en the edge of the desk where the journal clerk was keeping the minutes, proceeded cooly to read of the wonderful development of Minnesota avd the remarkable intelli- geuce, politeness and good manners of the people. Had Charlé§ Sumner been in the Senate he would have fainted dead away at such a spectacle. Had Mr. Edmunds been in the chair, to which he a few moments before called auother Senator, prior to leaving the Senate chamber, he would certainly have sent for the sergeant-at-arms. As it was Sen- ators looked aghast and in hopeleas be- wilderment, until, at a pointed suggestion from one of the other efficera of the Senate, the chief clork retreated frem lis novel and conspicuous position. 2 Stealings for 1883, Charleston News and Courier. Perhaps the most curious statisticel information drawn out by the closing of the year just passed is that which the New York World offers under the bead of “Stealings for 1883.” The World classifi@’ the year’s peculations as fol- lows: Occupations. No. Amount. Bankers, 19 $3,581,000 Bank cashiers and clerks, 12 1,070,000 Brokers, 6 559,000 State treasurers, 3 363,000 Merchants and agents, 28 2,360,000 Clerks, treasurers, &c. 9 970,000 City nee : 20 1,736,000 County employes anc bevenda naan 16 709,000 Lawyers, 4 461,000 r ~=—s- Total 148 $13,330,000 This table would seem to firmly es- tablish the oft-repeated assertion that nae theft—in common with its companion crime—is almest wholly the resalt of opportunity. No newspaper mcn are ever found iv the list. This is natural enough. The lawyers come Jast, for the reason, perhaps, that they make so good use of ther legitimate opportunities. a op ee — Bushrod W. Mahone, a wealthy money broker of Mount Carmel, Ill., was mur- dered within a few feet of his own gate in the most pablie thoroughfare of that city, at 6 o'clock on Tuesday night.

Y. ee ee ee aes oie tag ms They are a vegetable tanic purgative, abso- lutely harraleas under all circumstances, They never injure the weakest female or the young- estchild. One box is a medicine chest svuffic- ing for a whole family. Suppose you have diarrh@a; nature is making a great effort to got rid of 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 or two, 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 thrownupon the blood, pois- oning the fountains of life and Glling the nose, the throat and the lungs with choking mucus; seven Brandreth’s Pilla taken at night on an empty stomach, willrestore 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 « 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 alkaiinity 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 eruptiona vanish ljke magic under the influence of this purifying purgative. We cannotstop 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 andimmed and his natural force una- bated even afier seventy years. “ Best in the, World. Brandreth’s Pills have stood (be test of forty- five years of use by the Amertcan people. They are entirely Vegetable. They are absolutely univereal,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 sye 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 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 for a month. In cases of tweplty years’ standing, gentlemen have been cured by taking one pill a night for a year. Brandreth’s Pjlls 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. We all wirh to die of old age. A bundred years is the natural limit of life, which can only be reached by purging and puritication. Jo general debijity, nefyous tremor, and mental depression Brandreth’s Pills have a marvelous effect. They have won the confi- dence of millions in all parts of the civilized world, Constitutionsshaken by Iqang residence in ynwholesqme climates, ur by sedentary hab- its, are wonderfully renovated by 4 course of this extraordinary medicine, which, powerful as ia its iction on the whole system, is perfect- ly harmless to the tenderestframe. The Pills are composed of rare balaame, without the ad- micture of a grain of any mineral whatever, or of any other deletecious substance, Vhey operate directly, powerfully, and beneticially upon the whole mass of bleod ; nor can we question the fact when we see indigestion cured, liver com. laints arrested, the oppressed Jungs brought into healthful play, and every physical func- tion renewed and strengthened by theiragency. Letter from a Gent]emen Ninety Years Old.—Long Life from Use of Brand- reth’s Pills, PRAIRIE DU CHIEN, Wis,, Feb, 11, 1882, Iam inthe ninetieth year of wy eatrhly pilgrimage, and before passing to another, and { trust, a better world, 1 wish to bear testimo- ny to the great virtues of Brandreth’s Pillsas a 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 seventy years. ‘or oyer forty-five years I have known and lieved io Brandreth’s Pills. They bave cured we of indigestion, costiveness, dyspepsia; and the females of my family have found them invaluable at all times, I also wish to say that [ have found ALtucock’s Porous PLas- TERS very useful in breast pains, backache and weak muscles. ALFRED Brunson, A,M., D_D. CURE OF NEURALGIA, Takenasa‘‘Forlorn Hope,” Brandreth’s Pills Effectia (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® Pilis, verified by eighteen years’ experience in my mother’s (the late Mrs, Dr. Geo M Browne) tamily and my own. They were at first tuken usa ‘“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 opiuin, taken to dead- en the pain (by advice of her physician.) The effects were almost magical; in une 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 means. About six years ago I was taken with what appeared to be a bad cold, but in a ehort time, symtoms of confluent Small] Pox were developed, causing os moch alarm. I determined to try Brand. reth’s Pills as a remedy, and heir efficacy was soon apparent. J was wel] wuch 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 rescribed by physicians, I shquid have died. know of many otber instances of the value of Brandreth’s Pills in disease and sicknesa, which I will be happy io give to any one wl.o Will apply to me. .

We have experimented for several years, using both modes, and invariabJy get the best results from planting the seed iv the hills where we wish them to grow; planting three or four seed in each hill and thinning them out after they show the fourth leaf, taking the poorest plants. Last year of my cabbage planted in this way several weighed over twenty-five pounds, while those from plants carefully set out in the usual way and with the same cultiva- tion would weigh scarcely ten pounds. Transplanting checks the growth at the most critieal time, and the retar- ded plant shows the effects during the whole season and are less likely to bead,” a em The Dayton Journal publislics the following : “Two adjoining fields, of ten acres eech, on William Vausci- ver’s faray were sown with wheat the last weck in September, Both were of thesame kind of soil, upland clay, and both received the same kind of treatment at seed time. The same quantity and quality of wheat was sown on it with a drill. In the spring field No. 1 did not show as yood a stand as field No. 2; in fact, it threatened a total failure, and his neighbors advised him to plow it for corn, As seonas the grouad was! dry enough, about April 15, H.C.

This brought dewn the house at Col. Best’s expense. Bat in his usual strain of youd humor aud quick re- partee, Col. Best in reply said that he was glad to kuow that the Secretary of State of the United States had feund some one that he could look up to while in Noh Carolina. This brought forth a tremendous applause, aud Mr. Seward said Col. Best’ had the best of him.

Far away in God’s beautiful heaggo, They are calling the “roll” each day, And soaie one slips into the places Of the ones who are summoned away. —Christian Standard. —_—. -~——- Rest.

How the First English Settlement was Planted in America. Referring to the resolution of Sena- tor Vance intreduced in the Senate to commemorate the third centennial of the settlement at Roanoke by Sir Walter Raleigh’s colony, the Raleigh News and Observer gives an inter— esting historical epitome of the Ral- eigh expedition and attempts pre- viously made to effect settlensents by the French and Spaniards, Although the Cubots following Columbus and Americus Vespuci in 1497 discover ed New Foundland, and- three years later the Continent, Spain was the only nation that attempted to make settlements in the New World. The French and English were con- tent to engage in fishing on the banks of New Foundland, which even in the year 1500 they found profitable, but madc no attempts at settlement or couquest. The French were largely engage! in business, and = Francis I. eoncluded it would be a good idea to establish a colony, so he seut John Verrazzani, a native of Florence, and an experienced navigator to make ex- plorations. In 1524 Verazzani start- ed from the Island of Madeira ina veséel catled the Dolphin and on the 9th of March following reached land, it is supposed somewhere in the ‘neighborbood of Masonbore Sound, and not far fromthe place where Wilmington now stands, After coast- ing along from the 3ath to the §0th degrees of latitude he returned to France and made his report, but Francis being involved in trouble no attempt was made ata settle- ment. In 1562 Admiral Coligny, being desirous of establishing an asylum for the Protestants of France, ob- tained from his Severeign guthorit to found a colony in the New World. The command of the expedition was given to Ribault, who success- fully transported about 1,000 persons to Port Royal harbor and proceeded to erect there a fert, whioh, in honor of Charles IX, their king, he called Arx Carolina, Here was raised the first flag of a civilized nation that floated over men seeking, in the western world, peace and freedom of censcience, But persecution was quick to fol- low them across the ocean, Notwithstanding peace existed be- tween France and Spain, Menendes, a Spanish Catholic, remarkable more for brutality than for piety, sought the colonists at their refuge, and fa- vored by circumstances, succeeded in capturing the post with most of the inhabitants. Sparing the women and children, he hanged upon the neigh- boring trees ail of the men who fell into his hands, erepting over their lifelegs forms a bigoted inscription ; “T do not da this as to Frenchmea— but as to heretics.” Asa fit sequence to such a blaady deed, DeGourges, 4 distinguished French Protestant, fitted aut, at | pontinent of America has been brought 6 SALISBURY. N. C., FEBRUARY 7, 1884, bis own ex , a small fleet, boldly attacked fort, and after a severe conflit, captured the Spanish garri, son, Again were the magnolies of Arx Carolina to serve the purposes of hu- man ferocity. Theexasperated DeGourges retaliated in kind for the butcheries of Meven- dez, and beneath the suspended corp- ses of the captured eee the Frenehman wrote: I do not do this as to Spaniards nor as to heretics— but as to traitors and murders.” Thus ended the attempt to settle Carolina as a French colony. In 1578 Sir Humpbrey Gilmer, who had long been engaged jn specu- lations aud problems concerning navi- gation, obtained from Queen Eliza- beth a charter to plant colonies in America. He sought those shores nearest to the mether country—and with which be was most familiar, but the rigors of a northern climate and the poverty ef the soil proved disas- trous to his undertaking, and after two ineffectual attempts to loeate a permanent settlement, in the last of | which he lest his life, his charter ex-| pired withoat the accomplishment of nm perpowe. is step-brether, Sir Walter Ral- eigh, who had been with him on the Newfoundland coast, then pursued the same design. ‘This remarkable | personage, illuatrious in every field of | manly endoavor, distinguised far) above all his cotemperaries as a cour- | tier, a scholar, a soldier and a sailor, was the founder of the first English colony settled in America. Becem- ing acquainted with Verazzani’s ex- | plorations, Raleigh proposed to seek the same doast, and in April, 1584, he. sent Philip Amidas and Arthur Bar-| low, with two ships, on a veyage of discovery, giving hcapectsl dwections as to where they should strike the land, Observing Raleigh’s particular in-| junctions these navigators sailed to- wards the temperate latitudes. Ap- proaching America from the south- ward they were warned of the prox- imity of the shore as well by the breakers as by the rich perfumes that | filled the air with a grateful fragrance. | Two days later being the fourth day of July, 1584, their eyes were glad-| ened witha sight of the expected | land ; near the spot where Veruzzaui had landed sixty vears before. Intending to enter at the first con- venieot harber they coasted north- ward under easy sail for more than a hundred miles, when on the 13th of July they discovered a roadstead of- fering a commodious anchorage. Here they determined to bring their jour- ney to an end. About mid day on the 13th, when there was not a film of a cloud in the heavens, nor a breath of air to break the sea, when the tides were still, and | the sunshine danced along the glit- tering sandbavks from Hatteras to Look Out; when the whole scene was so intensely tranquil, that those ships looked like ‘painted ships,” and that eceana “painted ocean;” | when the crew stood about in silent wonderment at the vast and solitary world before them—no soudding skiff, no rising smoke, uo distant sound ; at this hour, when solitude was ost awful and most sublime, the sound of prayer broke the enchantment, and the first words of Christian snfferage were uttered in returning thanks to God that the lion flag of old Eng- land was about to be planted on the suil of the new world. The boats were then manned, and the two cap- tains attended by the mast notable gentlemen of the expedition were pul- led taward the shore; and as the boats grated upon the sand they sprang upon the beach, and Captain Amidas shouted in a loud voice: ‘We take ion of this land in the right ef the queene’s mest excel- lent majeatie, aa rightful queene avd princesse of the same, to be deliv- ered over tothe use of Sir Walter Raleigh, according to her mes grant and letters patent, under her highnesse’s great seale.’ Such was the genesis of the Anglo- Saxon colonization in America, from which was evolved in the coarse of time the greatest and grandest em- pire of the yniverse, Here the seed was planted which germinated, and after experiencing many vicissitudes grew and expanded until the vast | 1 under its benign influences. It was the birth of a mighty nation in the wilderness of an unknown world—a nation distinctive in its oharacteris- tics—excelling al] others in liberty and virtue no lesa than in gourage, enterprise and knowledge.

The Internal Revenue. peeple of Say what you will the North Carolina demand the repeal of the Internal Revenue system. Talk abent this, that and the other, atill the fact remains that the repeal of the Internal Revenue system is more sincerely desired by the North Carolina voter than any other meas- ure. They demand the repeal of the system not tbe tar. They fully re- cognize the fact that it is but just and right that whiskey and tobacco should be taxed, and the majority of them care not how heavy the tax is, so that the abominable system by which it is collected be done away with. The opposition fo the Revenue ee is no poodlum yell, nor is it the ery of the drunken, nor the howl of the demagogue. It is the result of the sober intelligence of the country, the babblings of a few fanatics to the contrary notwithstanding. This demand of the people is not unreasonable. It is not a groundless prejudice. The people are tired of the arrogant army ef revenue officials that “toil not, neither do they spin,” but draw their four dollars a day and lord it over the toilers in the work- are hey are tired of a revenue system that fills our coves and mountain sides with an armed gang of paid spies and informers aud our jails with men who are arrested on trumped up charges and dragged from their homes to prisons, leaving the plow in the furrow aud the sickle in the wheat field. They are tired of a revenue system that fills the land with officers who may shoot down a ceable citizen and escape trial belie our Superior courts on the ground that the crime was committed in pursuance of the They are tired of a revenue system | that is systematically changed into a| powerful political organization daring every campaign, when every revenue officer’s pocket has in it money to bribe and brass knucks and pistol to | overawe. | To their representatives in Cou- gress the people of North Carolina and of the South would say, “God speed in your fight with the tariff; but while you are removing the duty aud remove the. ‘store keeper’ from our little distilleri@s and the ‘gauger’ and ‘raider,’ with his sling-shot and brass knacks from our ballot bexes.” The people demand the repeal of the ‘nm: rnal system and the people are right. Ifthe tax on whisky and to- ace” ig uecessary tor the support of the national goverument, let it be collected on some such plan as that suggested by Senator Vance in his bill recently published ia this paper. If it is not necessary to the support of the national government—and the immense surplus in the treasury in apite of the pension frauds and the countless other jobs devised to get rid of that surplus would indicate that the internal revenue can be easily dispensed with—then let the tax be collected by our county sheriffs, and let the money so cullected be applied to the school fund. The internal revenue system must go.—Morgan- The Watt Theory of Farming. Mr. Watt, the well known plow maker of Virginia, promulgates the follewing views relative’ to farm- ing, which are so sensible and good that we hope every reader of this pa- per who does not already practice the principles laid down, will at once be- gin to do so. “First ;” says Mr, Watt, “preach to our le diversified crops. : Second ; To use good s and gaod breeds. Third ; In the preparation of land to de half the work of cultivation by preparation before the ground is lant- ed. ‘Take a piece of land and half repare it and it takes five times the (tee to work it that it would if well prepared en the start. Foruth ; No man, rich ar poor, 16 able to keep a mean mule, a mean horse, mean cow or mean anything else. It takes as much to keep a mean wule as it does to kcep a good ene. It will take half the labor of a man to whip a mean mule abead of him, whereas a gaod mule will carry the lazy rascal ahead without any whip- ping at all, Suppose you have six mean mules, and six men, at fair, average wages, plowing them, doing half work. Why, three good mules with three average men will do the same work, saving half the expenses ef labor, feed, gear- ing and tools, A man is just paying double wages ia such a condition of things as this,” “Plow fleep enough,” says Mr. Wait, “to make the loose earth drink up the rain water. You may places barrel of rain water and one of spring or well water side by side, and ina short time the rain water will become offensive and be filled with millions of wiggle-tails, and breed mosquitos to torment a whole plantation. The spring or well water will not be affected at all. Then take a sifter and strain the giggle-tails from the rain water into the other and they will die, because there is no matter in it to feed them, it having been left in the earth by filtration. The rain wa- ter ig nothing in the world but what the Alniighty has in his laboratory te fertilize the earth, if men are wise enough to utilize it and ‘plow their ground deep enough to drink it up.” ° From Rowan School Times. Music in our Common Schogls. Music has been almost, if noten- tirely ignored in our common school system, and the school system of any State or community, however good or complete it may be in other respects, is not perfect if it leaves out music. Music is a stimulant in any school, and enlivens both teacher and pupils. After pupils have been confined to their studies, in a sitting posture for an hour or two, they become dull, stupid and fretful, and while they are in this mood, it is useless to attempt to teach them. There are some teachers, a great many,I fear, who make the schoolroom despised rather than loved. Indeed, we often hear parents say that they have hard work to get their chil- dren to go to school, especially after the first few days. Why is this ? Is it because they do not like to study, or because they do not like their play- mates, or some other such cause ? By no means. It is because the teacher proves himself an everlasting hum- drum by going over and over the same thing and never attempting to put some life into his school. It is not surprising, then, that chil- dren become disgusted and do not want to go to school. No wonder that parents have to beg, tease, coax, and even use the rod to get their children to go to school ! No wonder that we have in our schools, only about 28 per cent. of the school population ! Then, teacher, you need to make your schoolroom more interesting to your pupils, and as a means to this end, let me advise you to have music occas- ionaliy. You say youdo not under- stand music. That is a drawback, it is true, but it is one that can be over- come. Music should be part of a teach- er's education, and‘if you are deficient in this respect, the sooner you remedy it, the better it will be for you. In every school there are good voices which only need proper training, and if this has been supplied,a few good songs, well sung, will refresh hoth teacher and pupils, bring to the surface the best feelings of their na- tures. and leave them in a much better mental condition for the work of the schoalroom.

The ridges are divid- ed intalittle conical elevations in which a nerve terminates er else passes around it; and lies here the sense of tonch. In the hollows are the pores that are the openings of the sweat ducts. What are these, do youask? Well, they are min- ute tubes which, straightened out, would be about a quarter of gn inch long, that start in the tissue beneath the derma and wind spirally up through the skin until the upper surface is reached wheP its opeu end termiuates. The other end is twisted inte a sort of knot which is con- taiued in a little sac, and this is surround- ed by blood vessels. The number of these little sweat ducts or glands is astenishing. It is estimated that im every square inch of skin there are at least 2,800, and, as in a person of ordinary size there are 2,500 square inches of surface, these glands count up, 7,000,- 000. Only think of it—7,000,000 peres to keep open through a lifetime! If these tubes were put together, end to end, there would be one long canal of about twenty-eight miles. How is that for a system of sewerage.— Toledo Blade. ——__—_as An experienced sheep raiser says, that a good way to control a flock of sheep is to take an ewe lamb to the house and make a petof it.

SO oe The Wailroad Commission in Georgina. —_—_— From Charleston News and Courier. There has been a lively and thought- fal discussion of the werits and demeri!s ef the Railroal Commission in Georgia, and the different views ou the subject have been presented with as much force as the fnets aliewed. The discussion was conducted in excellent temper, and good js sure to come of it. The Macon Telegraph understands that the Georgia commissioners will in the future permit the railread autherities to be heard before they issue important erderf, and not after the orders have been issued as heretofore. Another im- portant change that will be i by the reads ia such amendment of the law as will give them the right of appeal from the decisions of the Commission. Our Macon cotemporary believes that the eemmisaion wil) vot oppose this, and the amendment, therefore is expected to be made. Public sentiment drifts that way in Georgia. The people desire to pre- gerve the commission, and the rajlroad companics themselves are said to adinit the advisability of having suel a tribu- nal, provided it is surrounded by proper safeguards. With a just and satisfactory adjustment by the Legislature of these matters of difference, a disagreeable and igritating question will be taken ont of the ways, and, both the people and the reads will move along in harmony. There is nodoubt thar in the excitement caused by railroad discrimination, the Legislature went too farin both South Carelipa and Georgia. South Carolina tas taken fron) the comission the power to fix the rates of tranaportation, without appeal, and in Gieorgia the right to be heard and to appeal from the decisions af the Commission wi!l wost likely be given tethe yailr when the legisla- ture, meets. T isa middle ground eon which both th@ public and the rail- reads ean safely stand, and this ground will soem be reached where it lias not been reached already. In Georgia, as to South Carolina, there isa conservative reaction which will be of advantage in hoth railroads and people. fa speaking on this sulject some weeks ago, wesaid we did not believe there was avy wrong in the design of the legis- Jature of S. C. iv appointing a R. R. Com- mission to guard the interests of the people io their relation to railroads. We believe it is possible to harmonize the interest of railroads and people, and that in order tu go this effectyally, securing the rights of both people and these cer- porate bodies, a Commission represent- ing the people, charged with ive duty of making thomsel ves thoroughly acquain= ded with railroad basinesg systema, wasa mecessity. Georgia, it appears from the abeve, is inafair way to demonstrate these views, as morg than half of the States of the Usion have already dupe. 2 oe Tho disaster which overtook the sea steamer, City of Columbus, on the 18th of January, off Gay Head, on the coast of Martha’s Viveyara, proved the almost Worthlessness of all the modern means javented and relied on for saving life in times of great djstyeas at sen.

While we prefer that contractors should as far aa practicable reside among those whom they serve, and will endeavor te incorporate such a provision in our pos- tal law, yet as the contractor is required to give a good: bond, which is reached through complaints made to the depart- ment at Washington, what is the real disadvantsge of being a non-resident ? The great thing is to hold the contractor to rigid accountability and thus deter the principal fron, dealing with irreaponsi. ble parties. 1 will introduce a bill ealarging the powers of the Peatmaster General to re- move sub-contracters in certain contia- geacies, bat this mast be well guarded else the coutractor will proyide for the rofitable rputes and threw the others cay on the goyernment.

ALLiance, O,, Jan. 2.—Orr’s block was leveled to the ground bya gasoleve ex- plosion and two houses, one on each side succumbed to the shock, while others further away were shattered, riddled and badly injured. In a few moments flames rose from the reins and the fire alarm was sounded. Sach excitement pretail- ed that the fire gained so much headway as to nearly consume the ruins and barn- ed two houses before it was got under control. In the meanwhile the scene was harrowing in the oxtremé, as it was Known that six or more people were nf. ed or were therein imprisoned in the wreck and would porish by fire. Men, women und children wringing their hands ing destroyed wandered about in hopeless despair at their inability to save the in- mates. F.M. Orr and Elmer Orr, his son, Mr. Homer Highland, a daughter of Mrs. Frank Evans aud twochildyen, aged two and four mouths, were known to have been iu the building at the time of the explosion. These all perished. The woneu and children were in the second aud third stories and are supposed to have been killed by the falling walls. Mr. Orr aud his son were both spoken to while confined under the debris, but were burned to death. These bodies were all recovered last night and were crushed or charred so as to be hardly recogniza- ble. The only person in the Orr building known to bave escaped was Frauk Evans whose wife and children perished. Be- sides those killed seven persons had bro— ken limbs or were cut and bruised by flyiug bricks, &c. The explesion was caused by fumes from gasoleve. A child of Mi, Orr turn- ed the faucet iu the barrel and the fluid ran out on the floor. Orr was mopping it up when the gas arising therefrom ig- nited from the gas light. John Curry and Chas. H. Hoyden, of the Duprese & Benedick Minstrela were blown out of the Orr store through the plate glass win- dows and carried clear across the street, where they were picked up badly injured and carried toa hotel, They will recov- er. The damage is estimated at from $60,000 to $80,000.

I had blistered it several times and concluded that my horse would never get over being lame. Five weeks ago to-day I commenced using Ken- dall’s Spavin Cure and after, using it three weeks the lameness entirely disappeared. It has been worth $80.00 to me, H, H. Hovsr. -. Mount Prairle, Minn., Sept. 24, 1888. Dr. B. J.

I had the best horse doctors examine her, some called it one thing some another, one said the shoul- der was broken but none could cure it. After I had tried the cure I went and bought one bottle of Kendall’s Spavin Cure, I did not use one half of it before it was all smooth and clean. Lameness all gone too. As a horse liniment it is invaluable. Respectfully, ANDREW ORR. Tawas City, Mich., Sept. 1, 1883. Messrs B. J, KENDAL Co., Gentlemen:— Please send me a. package of Prof Flints Condition Powders.

It makes mean cowards and sneaks of men afflicted with it who might otherwise be brave and man- ly. Like, for instance, the fellows who destroyed signs, broke down the young shade trees, and cut well ropes, &c., in this town one night last week. It was such a wicked destruction of property that they are ashamed and afraid to be known as the authors of it, The damage to others, thoagh not great, is annoying, but to themselves the damage is great. To be called a coward anda sneak will generally provoke a battle; but when a inan’s own conscienpo denounces him by such terms, he is obliged to stand and take it. Indeed, consvience goes further and calls him a fool, a liar and a hype- crite, It heaps upon him all the black vames and epithets in the catalogue of personal abuse, and the guilty has no al- ternative but to take it—pocket it all— until he can rise to the dignity of an hon- Paration.

But the kind of mischief dove in this town last Friday night and a night or two before, is not new. We are re- minded that similar mischief was done here by some young men nearly 40 years ago, aud remember the persons who were engaged iu it. If that were all it would amount to nothing, but itis not. It isal- so remembered that not one of those young men ever came to any good. Forty years will generally tell the story of a man's career; and they who are working wick- edness at 16,18 and 2U years without a change, are apt torun a short and disa- trous race. a For the Watchman. TAYLORSVILLR, N. C., Feb. 5, 84. Taylorsville is very quiet this week. Two weeks ago we had a crewd all week trading stock mules priucipally. About 40 mules of the value of $4,000 were bought and taken off South and East. Good males about $100 and choice $125 ahead. Alexander county raises more and better mules perhaps than any other county in the State. The survey on the Rail Road is going on under Major Kneeland. The first sec- tion of some two miles or more is under contract for the grading, aud yesterday in the presence of a large crowd of citi- zens the tirst ground was broke with an euthusiasm that spoke well for its success. Our eounty jail is tevartiess for some time past, and might be ‘‘to let,” vut for fear we might need it some tiine for home use will hold on to it for the present.

ENQUIRER. - oo TaKING PuotroGrarus By ELECTRICI- ry at ONE Cenr Eacu.—A Cleveland, Ohio, dispatch of the 29th of January says: E. W. Fellows, of this city, after experimenting fortwo years, succeeded iu inventing a way to take instantaneous aud absolutely permanent photographs upon any substance having a smooth surface, by the action of electricity. The expeuse is less than | cent for each pic ture. The importance of this discovery can hardly be estimated. It opens up an entirely new field in the artof photo- graphy and will work a revolution in all its branches. The system invented will be especially valuable to lithographers. This is the firat time that electricity has been applied to the art of photography, aud some little excitement among the the photographers of Clevelaud has been created. Mr. Fellows claims to have re— ceived some flattering inducements from capitalists, but nothing definite has yet been decided upon. Articles describing the process are being prepared for Eas- tern scientific jonrnals, but mention of the new discovery appears io print for the first time to-day, ee An old lady whe had no relish for modern church music was expressing her dislike of the singing of an anthem, ina certain charch net far from——, when a neighbor said “Why, that is a very old est man and confess his sin and make re- anthem. ‘this the old lady replied, ‘‘Weel, weel I David savg it to Saul.” To noo forthe first time understan’ why /Saul threw his javelin at Dayid when penalty of his wrong, is a heavy barden. | the lad sang for him.” how did | lat rest, the apecimenu has been sent to the | 'Charlotte mint for assay, and we are, EE eeeE—E————eE——eee aes Dat ee Spee ees ba eer ind slat tee eat tals - INING -« 3 ~ ~ ME ws. “5 < a “ a. > suees T.

We would most particular ly caution the public against these hum- bygs. They contain nove of the healing gums that are used jp ALLCock's, but are simply a combination of lead, red and rubber, and are vaunted in long wind- ed advertisements as an improvement an 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. 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 snd power to the spine they stregthen that mighty organ and fill it full of foreign clectricity 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 invaluable in al) cases of hysteria. Weak Fridmeoys Cured. Contoocook, N.

( ALLCock’s PLAsTERS have been of such great service to me and mipe that | feel it a duty to state the facts, as briefly as pvesi 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. fn afew days all pain left her. She applied fresh plasters every twq weeks and in the course of two months she cgm- pletely recovered ber health. At first she could hardly walk across the room: each day she walked a little further, gnd now she 1s 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.

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 ure 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.

It is hardly the function of public schools to impart any kind of special or boys to be ministers, or doctors, or law- yers, or farmers, or carpenters, or shoe- makers; we cannot train girls to be artists in pigments, or in music, or in millinery, or in cookery ; all we can un- dertake to do in our publie schools is to train the intellect and develop the char- acter of the pupils so that they shall be intelligent, industrious, and virtuous citizens. It ought to be possible to give the pupils of these schools a men- tal and moral discipline that shall “fit” them for any calling in life, and not more for one honest calling than for another. The first thing to be sought, and the per | thing most often neglected in our pub- lic teaching, is the development of a sound character in the pupils. The State cannot teach religion, but it can require its teachers to enforce the virtues of industry, self-reliance, truth fulness, pu- rity, honesty, justice, kindness, and courtesy ; it can make the inculcation of these virtues a chief part of the. teacher's work. The education that neglects or undervalues morality is worse than worthless ; it “fits” the pu- pil to be a malefactor, The next thing to be sought is to awaken the minds of the pupils, to stim- ulate their thirst for knowledge, to train them in habits of inquiry. The success- ful teacher is the one who makes his pupils think patiently and independent- tly, who stirs them to orginal investi. gation. Any pupil who has had this done for him has been “fitted,” so far as his mind is concerned, for success in any calling.—Century. Prof. N.S. Smith, as Corresponding Secretary of a committee appointed at the last meeting of the State Associa- tion of County Superintendents, has forwarded a circular letter to the edu- cators of the State, in which their opin- ion is solicited on the following subjects concerning the School Law : SUBJECTS FOR CONSIDERATION. 1. The necessity for County Superin- tendents of schools and for the regular inspection of schools. / ¥. How to obtain the best School Committeemen. 3. Should the State Superintendent of Public Instruction be required to vis- it each county in N. C. at least once during his term of office and address the teachers. ? 4. Should the County Superintend- ents be required to address their teachers at least once a year? 5. Should County Institute be requir- ed to be held in each county once a year? 6. Should uniformity in text books be enforced ? 7. Should the teacher's grade of cer- tificate depend hoth on his examination and on his work in the school room as seen by the County Superintendents ? 8. Should there be two school sessions each day with a long recess at dinner, or one Jong session, say from 9 to 2 o'clock, with short recesses ? 9, What is your opinion of the size of the school districts, are they too large or too small ? 1). Are too many studies required to be taught in the schools? 11. Are the Coynty Boards af Edu- cation as at present satisfactory? If not suggest a better system. | 12. Should not the County Boards of Education have discretionary power in regard io the salary of the County Su- perintendent? 13. Should not the general eduea- tional fund be large enough to support 1} the public school 4 months? 14. Should not the school system of the State be controlled by educators? How can this be accomplished ? 15. Should teachers wehiine first grade certificates be required to be examined each year? BAgnld it not be left discre- tionary with the county superitendent whether he may renew the certificate. 16. Should ‘the public schools, be taught in one continuous term or in two terms at different times of the year? 17. Should there be only one grade of certificate und that a high one? 18. Is not the fee paid by teachers for certificates when erate on other than legal days detrimental ? 19. What do you think of National aid? If gfanted do: you oppose a joint administration of the funds by State and Federal officers? 20. Have you any other ideas to ad- vance on any other subject that may be of service to the betterment of the schoo] law or system ? D> <> ee A RespectFuc Bor.—Au old man en- tered a railroad car and was looking around fora seat, when a boy tev or twelve years of age rose up and said, ‘Take my seat, sir.” The offer was accepted and the infirm old pan sat down. ‘Why did you give me your seat 9” he inquired of the boy. ‘“‘Resause you are old, sir, and J am a boy !” was the reply. .. A hundred years ago there would have been little need to record, as remarkable, a similar incident. Amoug things that are good or popeful in a rising genera- tion, there ja one great change for the worse, manifest to everybody—a declin- ing reverence toward age and toward God. ‘Thou shall rise up before the hoary head, and honor the face of the old many aod fear thy God, I'am the Lord.” — Present Hapriness.—The great secret of gaining happiness in life is to enjoy the present. To be doing one thing and thinking of another is a very ungatisfac- technical education. We cannot “fit” | try Tyg) of spending life, Some ple are alw ys wishing themselves xomme- where but where they are, or thinking of sumething else thaa what are doing or of someone else than to whom they are speaking. This is the way to enjoy; nothing, to do nothing well, and to please nobody. It is better to be interested in inferior persons and inferior things than to be indifferent with the bess. A prio- cipal cause of this indifference is the adoption of other people’s tastes instead of the cultivation of their own, the pur- suit after that fur which we are not fitted avd to which consequently we are not in reality inclined. This folly pervades more or less all classes, and arises from the error of building our enjoyment on the false foundation of the world’s opin- ion, instead of being, with due regard to others, each our own world. <a ____—_ Dr. Beau, a French physician, has observed that the finger nails grow at the rate of one-thirtieth of au inch a week, while the toe-nails increase. in length only one-fourth as fast.

Crineman has sketch- ed one of the greatest, if not the great- est danger which menaces the civil liberties-of the people of this country. If the Democrats in the House are half as eager to preserve our liberties as are the masses, they will take up Gen. Clingman’s suggestion and put it through their House, at least, and throw the responsibility of its net be- coming a law on the Republican Sen- ate and the Republican President. Official interference in elections by money and corrupting agencies is au alarming and dangerous practice and should be stopped. Every school master and public teacher should de- nounce it and endeavor to inonlcate | right views on this subject. We clip the following from the Raleigh News- Observer: | Gen. Clingman has addressed an | The News & Observer greatly desiring to see tobacco cultare extended presents | with the following for your consideration. B. H. Woodell, Esq :— Dear Six: I concar with you in the propriety of North Carolina planters mak- ing less cotton and substituting tobacco for a part of their usual cotten crop. The world is full of cotton, and the improve- ment made in the East India staple makes the*product of tne country a strong com- petitor against American cotton in the markets abroad, where the price for our product is regnlated; while, as regards tobacco, stocks everywhere here and abroad are low and decreasing, while consumption is constantly increasing. Tobacce is high and will continued high till the production meets the demand for consumption, while cotton is low and will continue low as long as more is pre—- duced than the world can censume. It will take two fall consecutive crops of tobacco—an erent that rarely occars—to stock the depleted markets; and the most reliable ones in the trade say that open letter to Congress in which he | tobacco will sell well for years to come. directs public attention to one of the) Be that as it may, no one whose judg- great abuses of the age. He adverts! ment is respected, calculates upon low to the growing tendency of Federal | prices for the crop to be grown im 1884. officials to interfere with electionsand | 4y gere of medium yellew tobacco, say he declares that the evil instead of | goy pounds at only 20 cents per pound— being checked is daily developing it- | many average over double that price | will bring $120, while an acre of cotton self in a more aggravating form. This | Lente oe the meu in power to per- grown upon the same land will produce petuate their regime, to exclude oth-| spont 250 pounds, which at 10 cents per ers from participation in the patron- pound, will be only $25. It is true that age of office and to contrel the vast influence which 100,000 officials ex-| ert for the purpose of maintaining the | administration, is one of the dangers that threaten to subvert the liberties: of the people. When the administra- | tion is no longer the agency of the | people, but becomes the ruler, perpet- | uating itself indefinitely by means of its patronage, then indeed, stioagh the forms of free government may | survive, the spirit will be dead and | oligarchy will be enthroned over the people. Gen. Clingman well says that “within a few years past the interfer- | ence of officers iu elections and their | contributions of money have become so general that it is conceded that, even the election of a President has been decided by these means, and in- telligent gentlemen have expressed the opiuion that hereafter none but rich men should be nominated by presi- dential conventions. In fact we seem to be rapidly approaching a condition like that of Rume in the days when the imperial crown was sold to the highest bidder.” He demands that the evil shall be corrected, and he does not think it difficult. We quote: “During Mr. Jefferson’s adminis- tration it is well known that he for- bade his officers to interfere with pop- ular elections, declaring that an ad- ministration ought to stand before the country on its own merits, and that officials should confine their efforts to the public business,” “During Mr. Van Buren’s admin- istration some of his subordinates did interfere in elections, and in the city | of New York some of them even con- | tributed money. This practice pro- | voked the denunciation of such prom- inent men as Clay, Webster and oth- ers, and the public indignation of the country was so aroused that on Gen. | Harrison’s coming into office he caused his Secretary of State, Mr. Webster, | to issue, about the 22d of March,} 1841, a proelamation declaring that) partisan efforts for er against any po-| litical party or the coutribution of money by officers of the government to influence the elections ‘would be regarded as a cause for removal.’” The General’s proposition is quite simple, and if adopted would be very effective : “Provide, by law, that any officer | of the government who sanctions or | knowingly permits any of his subor- dinates to be called on to contribute money for what ure called political purposes, shall be deemed guilty of a felony, and on conviction be impris- oned for not less than two years and fined at the discretion of the ceurt, Secondly, provide that any officer of the government who contributes bis money for such a purpose shall be held liable to indictment for a misde- meanor and subject to fine or impris- onment, and also liable to a civil suit for twenty times the amount given by him, one half of which may go to the infurmer, and the other to the public. Thirdly, let it be provided that any citizen who knowiugly asks an officer for money for such a purpose shall, as an accessory before the fact, be sub- ject ta the like punishment.” This remedy if tried would proba- bly answer the purpose. But then if Congress should pass it—would not the President veto it? Would the Re- publieans be willing to forego their campaign fund in this wise? We, however, commend the matter to the attention of the Democrats in Con- Gress. This seession wil] be used largely to make a political record, let the Demvrrats put the Republicans on record on Clingnian’s propesition, © it costs more to raise an acre of tobacco than an acre of cotton, but no eve whose opinion is worth a battun will hazard the opinion, that the cost of raising tobacco iv five times that of cotton; and yet the product of the former will cemmand five times that of the latter—very often ten times as much. I would advise those who iutend plant- ing tobacco whe vever raised it before not to attempt too mach the first year. To grow tobacco successfully requires barns properly constructed, with flues, &c. A good sweet filler may be cured on scaffolds in the sun and then hung in any house or shed on the premises to protect it from the rain. It will be well ' for beginners to plant some for “bright” and some for sweet fillers,” choosing aowe one or more of the yellow varieties for the former, and Maye, Flanagan or Sweet Oronoko for theJattcr. These lat- ter are not as readily cured bright yellow us those specially used for yellow goods, but they make the sweetest and best fill- ers and smokers, so far as intrinsic qual- But “brights” hold the front rank im prices and their production is well worth big efforts, for here success brings big money. “There is a tide in the affairs of men, which Taken ut the flood, leads on to fortune.” Tobacco has certainly come to the front and it will hold the fort ity is coucerned. us & Money crop, till production exceeds demand—ans is) now the case with cotton—a thing not | Then why not raise tobacco where a good arti- likely to occur for years to come. cle can be successfully grown, as is cer- tainly trac of thousands of acres in North Carolina that were in cotton last year without profit to the producer ? Some of the wise heads will see the sit- ‘nation and mount the tide, otbers will think about it, and abeut the time they lanneh forth, it will be “ebb tide,” and their little barks will be stranded. ‘lo drop the metaphor, the pradent planter will begiu at once to prepare for tobacco so that his crop may be pitched in time to properly develop and ripen to advau- tage. The other fellow, starting late, will get left. If ‘‘he is a benefactor whe makes two blades of grass grow where only one grew | pefure,” what honor does be deserve who teaches plavters to deuble and triple the income from their ardueus labor ? In agriculture, the amount of profit is the measure of success; and he who regulates his products by the demand, will have something to sell which the world wants ata price which will not fail of substantial remuneration. R. L, RaGianp. een pager Christian Missions in Turkey. It is astonishing how much atten- tion is and has fer generations past been paid in Turkey by the Chris- tian ehurahes of the West. The Uni- ted States have vied with Great Britian in this partioular, and there are ne more prosperous missions either in European Turkey or in Asia Minor than those which bear the American name. The following figures will probably beget something like surprise in the minds of man readers. There are in the Turkish Empire, as is gathered from recently published statistics, thirty central mission stations, five colleges for giv- ing ordinary education and others for theological purposes; 121 churches 400 preaching stations, 900 pastors, teachers and other Christian workers; 60,000 regular attendants at their places of worship, of whom {10,000 are communicants. This isa very respectable exhibit. But what are these aniong so many? ‘The popula- tion of European and Asiatic Turkey is not under 25,000,000, Gardens of the Sea. =e Among the many curious analogies born of modern inyesiigation,. none are more interesting than those shew- ing striking cases of parallelism iv the habits and castoms of animals whose environments are totally dis- similar. The ocean bed seems led with forms so resembling those of land that a modification of structyre to cen- form with their surrou ndings sent pears to be the point of difference. In drifting over the reefs of our southern border this resemblance between the creatures of land and sea is extremely striking. The ens of the lower world abound in lavish growth ; trees, shrubs, waving vines, are all repre- duced in the wondrous forms of the sea. Here a forest of coral branches (Madrepora) raise their myrisd of bristling points, each flowered by a delicate polyp, and presenting a olive-green tint in contrast to the deep blue of the channel upon whose banks they grow. Pure as a crystal, the wa- ter seems to intensify the beauty of the objects, even in the greater depths; gayly bedecked fishes move lazily about, rising and falling ‘among the living branches, poising, perhaps, to pluck some morsal from a limb, iu all their motions reminding us of the birds of the shore. These gorgeous parrot-fishea are the sun-birds of the sea ; wondrous tinis—azure blue, gol- den yellow, and red—mark them. Some appear iridescent and bathed in metalic tints as if encased in burnish- ed armors, while many more in mod- est garb, found in our cooler waters of the North, call to mind the robin and the thrush, those welcome harbin- gers of spring. But it is not in their color alone that the fishes resemble the birds; it is in the home-life and love of offspring that we find a close resemblance. Many are nest-builders, erecting structures as complicated as those of the birds and equaling them in design and finish. The Art of Finger Nails. Mr. Levy, the corn cutter, has been telling me about the beginning of his delicate art, which is now practiced so generally. He thought that the earliest mudero chiropodist was a German who had practiced on the queen of England’s corns about | 1844; nevertheless I see that West- jervelt on upper Broadway announces that he began in 1840. Zachari start- ed here before the war, and obtained celebrity by cutting Mr. Lincoln’s corns. Another generation has come up paying special attention of the | feet and reading all that ean be of- | forded on the subject. One of the best | known chiropodists here began, it is i said, doctoring the hoofs of horses, pand he observed in time that men ‘needed quite as much repair of the feet. There are several women in this bnsiness, and of late years its profits have heen much extended by manicure, which brings dollars ‘place of dimes. Women are often in love with ther own hands, aud I have | known cases where a lady has had her hand modled and carved by a sculptor and kept on her center table. Few men_ however, think fingers are impreved in appearance by being sharpened and whitened like talons of a hawk. It is however, a pleasant, listless way of spending an hour or two every day, tu go to the manicure. —WN. Y. Tribune. —~<—>-—____— Wo will now say that there is nothing new under the sun? Where is thst man Solomon who made that observation? The Washington Star of Tuesday eveniog, a Republican paper, contains this item: “After the adjournment of the Senate yesterday, Mr. Mahone retired to his committee room and remained there until the Senate chamber was deserted by all except the employees, who were clean- ing up. He went into the chamber and vigorously rehearsed his speech of to-day to an imaginary audience. His ardent declamatien after awnile at- tracted the policemen and others op duty iu the building. He seems fo have over exerted himself, for he was suddenly overcome with a fainting spell. He was carried to his com- mittee reom and restoratives employ- ed, but it was several hours before he was able to go heme.” Good heav- ings! How arethe mighty fallen ! A Senator rehearsing his speech in the Senate chamber. SS. eere The fellowing comes by cable—and if true, speaks badly for the enlight- enment of Spain. And yet any one who has seen the lower classes of Spaniards, iu theindittle, varrow, con- tracted streets, may easily believe that they have very contracted views and subject to violent prejudices, The item reads; “The small city of Asto- ga, iv Spain, was the scene Tuesday of a religious commotion, A party of students, under the leadership of a priest, made an attack apop an Eng- lishman aud a native who were hawk- ing bibles about the strects. ed even threatened to bury the Spaniard. ‘The victims made anavailing appeals to the police for protection,” 7 in | | cent trial the fellowing occurred, va- plashing the bear to the bnnk took |rotting filth was exposed to the air Pulled From His Den. A correspondent of Forest and Stream relates how & boy named Lynch in New Branswick-once hauled a live bear with a ‘of steers. He says: _ Mr. Lyach was drawing logs on a single bob-sled, an affair consisting of two runners, with one ly brae- ed bench or “bunk.” He noticed a hole near the base of a stump, around eas “gay was * melting and he sto steers to “prospect.” He found that the cavity ainteh cents ed a bear, and was large enough for him. to move around quite freely. Lynch the entrance and stirred Bruin up, bat all attempts te inflict a mortal wound with his axe were futile. He thought that his chances would be better if he could get the bear out. Taking his “tow chain,” one end of which was fast to bis bunk, he slipped the double of his chain back through a ring on the other end, and made a noose, which he dropped over Bruin’s head. He then gave the steers the haulaway word. They brought the bear to the surface, but becoming frightened at the sight of the bear at the other end of the line, they broke for the camp in the wildest sort of a ran, Lynch following as fast as he ceuld. The bear, forgetting that the steers, besides outnumbering bim, had him ata decid- ed disadvantage, would “set down the foot of his power” to stop the cattle, enly to be dragged off his feet and be convinced that he was a very poor an- chur, The steers reached the camp and rushed into the stable. They broke loose from the sled when it wedged into the doorway, and left Bruin picketed to the bunk. Lynch summoued the rest of the crew, and him to the settlement aliye. —— Brooks as Sewers. The Sanitary Engineer says: When a natural watercourse traverses a town, and its banks become built upon, the easiest way of getting rid of filth and house wastes is to throw them into the stream. Every man’s instinctive impulse is to get rid of what annoys him, and not mind how his neighbor will be affected. After a while, when the water course has become sufficiently nasty, the peopie come toa realizing sense ef what they have brought upon themselves and then try to devise a remedy. In this they begin usually at the wrong end. They look on the stream as crea- ting the nuisance, and don’t consider that itis their abuse of the stream that is the source of the trouble. So they go to work and cover the stream up, and call it a sewer. What is the result? Simply that the stench of the foul matter in the old channel is bottled up somewhat, to be vented through every manhole, every inlet and every house drain, and probably do more real injury than when the and the sun, and diffused its aroma through the whole atmosphere. The channel of a small natural stream through a town or village ought never to be converted into a sewer for house wastes. Thia will strike a geod many people as av odd doctrine, but still it is sound doc- trine. The functions of a natural stream and of a sewer are so diverse that one cannet be made to do duty fur the other. A SHarp Witsess.—During a re- rying the monotony ef the proeeed- ing. Among the witnesses was one as verdant a specimen of humanity as one would wish to meet.

Two Cedar Falls men go on ‘luesday next, aud Mr. Garrison goes down with about twep- ty from various points to buy if suited.” A great many Northern and Northwest: erm wen are now io the South looking for homes in a more equable climate thau the frozen regious they inhabit, and south- ern Georgia and Florida are especially undergoing inspection. Many have pass- ed through this city recently, and as they have been preceded by hundreds who have been pleased and whio are now com- fortably housed and prosperous in tlieir new homes, it is fair to conclude, that wany more will be delighted with the advantages of the country, aud the stream of bew ceimers increase from year to year until our vacant lands all tind occupants. And this wilf take place in a much shert- er period than mavy people think. Ten years ago the South was still gloomy over her prospect of immigration to build up herswaste places, but to-day she has few waate places to build up. She has lands for setllement, and prosperity for the in- dustrious, but she has already more than refflled the vacancies occasioned by the desolations of war, aud now, mounting upwards in material growth aud prosper- ity, boldly enters the arena of competi- tion with the populous North. a eae ae Present Creation, The generally prevailing opinion con- cerning the formation of the geological world, its massive rocky strata, and its wouderful veins of mineral matter; is that it is of very ancient formation and was created iu the beginning of time, that indefinite period in which most scientists locate the creation of the diver- sified forms of existence everywhere visible. The most generally accepted theory appears to be that at one time natare hada grand awakening anda period ef activity in which her motive forces thoreughly aronsed, were driven to expression. and that durjng this time all that we see in the world about us was formed and placed in position. After this outbreak of pewer these diverse forces were lulled te rest, and sinee that time have been useless and ipactive. There are, to the careful observer, many evidences to prove-that every force avi law of creation is at the present in full power and activity; that there is no rest or peace, but all the countless in- fluences and powers are in constant and never ending activity of expression, and are ever pressing against the possible, in all directions te give fourm and feature to ever material which will yield to their influence, so that there can be no time set when the formative forces of nature could give expression to their power and then rest forever from their labor. The labratory of the chemist shows that whenever certain elements come into contact the result is at once unfail-— ing and definable. The action of ele- ments upon every ferm inthe world about us proves that there ia no idleness thaf can be discovered. Oxygen, with a fervent desire, seeks to unite itself with some congenial mate wherever opportu- nity is presented; it waits not and rests not, and the result of its inufluenceand union may be marked onevery side. What istrue of this prevalent factor in the labratory of nature, is true of every other one, whateyer the character, or wherever its field of activity ; and it is probably true that every single force and every law that ever was jo operation anywhere in the realm of creation, is at present exer- ting ite influence te the extent of its power, limited only by the conditions and circumstances which sarround it, and that every different material or manifestation of creative forces which pow existsin the world, is still being formed and created according to the same Jaws and ivflueuces which firat called it into detinite form. It ia well known that there is a coustant abrasion, or se-called destruction of matter everywhere, aod those who understand the @oraowic laws of nature must believe that, according to be reading abd teselring searoent n, preven the Gatraction which ete follow frem this overbalancing of one force beyond another. It is generally held that quartz, sand- stone, slate, etc., are geological forms which require thousands of years to form; yet recent discoveries shew specimens of uartz which bave been formed within a ow years. A piece of quartz was taken from one of the Yellow Jacket mines in Nevada, from between the timers which were built about fifteen years ago. Sand- stones are also shown which have formed within the past twelve y~ars; and slate, also, which had al stratified, bas been found ia the bottom of a spring maade less than twenty years oe Iron yrities, and other miuerals also, have = Le and — in eet key where it is positively proven that were the sean of bat a few years of the action of different influences. Thas de~ ciding from the logical conclusions of a theery which must make provision for the upbailding, equal to the down-tear- ing in the progress of material develep- ment; these and many other proofs of recent mineral and geological formations, prove that abeut us to-day all the forces of nature are in constant and never end- ing activity.— Vining Review. = Vesuvius in Eruption. The Splendid Spectacle Presented to Visi- itors at Naples. A Naples correspondent writes: Vesu- vius seems to haveentered upon a sew phase of eruption. For many months the lava onthe southern slope of the mountain has been flowing down the jagged sidges, preseuting a most splendid sight at night to those ceming from Salerno and La Cava by rail, or to these who awaited the last train from Pompeii. But on the morning of the 9th—that is, last Wednesday morning — Vesuvius, which for several days previous had been manifesting great signs of uneasiness, showed his teeth ina new quarter, and that, too, on the side of the mountain where the eruption in clear weather can be seen from the city of Naples, The local papers have given short notices of it, but the fullest and most satisfactory tecount which I have seen is from Dr. Jobnston Lavis’s pen in the Italie, pub- lished at Rome. I may premise that Dr, Lavis ranks among the very first volean- ologists. Dr. Lavis says in his communi- cation that the volcano “seems to have entered upon a period of stronger activi ty the Yth. AtlA.M.the lava barst forth upon the north-northwest side of the coneand traversed the Atrio del Cavallo. Those who had the good for- tune te look atthe mountain at about 2.30 A.M. describe the sightas some- thing truly splendid. The maximum of explosive violence manifested itself about 10 A. M. I passed the whole of the after- noon and bight between the observatory and the current of the lava, bat my ac- tion was impeded by the dense elouds which hovered over the mountain, and which hindered both our movements and our sight.” When, however, the moun- tain became clear, as it did afterwards, the spectacle of the central cone at night was very imposing. Saturday at mid- bight I saw the buruing pumice stone shoot high into the air, and the brilliant refleetion of the molten lava within the cone was 80 great upor the lofty clouds above that they seemed one sliecetof fire. At any time we have this latter sight, any day tle eruption of the nerthwestern side may ,be renewed.

Wie— gand, examiver of the department of justice, continued his testimony to-day before the House committee en expendi- tures in the department of justice, in vestigating the coudact of government officials. The witness was examined ip relation to the conduct of R. M. Vouglass, son of Stephen A. Douglasa, and ex-mar- shal of the Western district of North Carolina, and said he found him imprac- ticable and almost without business capacity. His office was in charge of his brother-in-law, said by Wiegand to be totally incompetent. The main object of Douglass, the witness thought, was to make the office pay the maximum conm- pensation allowed by law, rather than to faithfully administer the daties of the position. Wiegard cited numerous in- stances of over—charges and false accounts made ‘for guards and trausportation, and said the reperts ef four er five investiga - tions of Douglass’ office were against the incumbent. In explaining the charges against the deputies for making false ac- counts, the mafshal defended them by saying the law allowed them to make such charges. The majority of arrests in North Carolina have been made for illicit distilling. a While the over dressed man is called a dude, the under dressed woman is called a nud. ° A saleof autographs and relics, the property of the late W.

It is raled by a caliph,’ and there is no disposition on the part of the sultan to reorganize his government ou the basis of a civil administration. When Mohammed took Constantinople he found it to his advantage te grant to the Christian communities certain rights and privileges, as he considered it better| for him to treat with the heads of the re- ligious organizations than to control the Christians as individuals. These rights} have been ratified over and ever again aod now the sultan finds, to use his own expression, an imperium in imperior with- in his borders. To-day fully one half of the inhabitants of the empire are Chris- tians, and with the moral forces at work in the Christian commupities the imperi- um is likely to be of more consequence in the future than the imperio. To re- construct the empire by giving up the caliphate is toe radical a step for oriental statesmansbip, and censeqaently the pol- icy Las been adopted of taking away one by one the rights ofsthe communities. We have heard enough through the dispatch- es of the resignation of the Greek and Arwenian patriarchs and of the refusal of their national councils to accept the changes iv their charters made by the government. The main questions at present involved are said to be the inde— pendency of the clergy, the influence ef the bishops, the control of orphans, the administration of wills and the freedom of the schools. The disturbance caused by the proposed changes is serious and threatens to lead to the intervention of the powers on account of the disregard ef treaty provisions, a thing to be feared by the porte. But the religions unification of the Turkish empire must come sooner or later unless the porte refuses to place itself square upon a civil basis. With so powerful a community of self-governed religious organizations enjoying even civil privileges, and with the moral force of the powers certainly sot in sympathy with the Ottoman rule in many rvital re- spects, no caliph can continue long to hold the reins of government. From the Ottoman standpoint the new change in policy is reasonable enough, dangerous asitis, but the advisers of the sultan do not consider it nearly as dangerous asacomplete change in the theory of goverument would be.—News and Obser- ver. ee Old Fort Raleigh. Cor, Ral. Observer. We have received through the polite- nessa of J. E. Goodwin, of Manteo, the following letter giving some account of Old Fert Raleigh, on Roanoke Island, where Sir Walter Raleigh’s colonists laid off the city of Raleigh aad bailt a fort te protect themselves from the attack of hostile Indians, three hundred years ago. The remains of the old fort are some twe miles from Manteo, pear which Amadas and Barlow landed. The letter of Mr. Goodwin would have been published ear- lier, but by one of those accidents which will sometimes occur in the most careful fawilies, it was mislaid. ‘‘I went to-day to see what could be seen of the old Fort Raleigh, which was built by the first set- tlers on this island. I set out with the intention of getting some one familiar with the place to go with me, and on my way I met J. C. Berry. He told me that any one could find it, aud gave me directions to find it near Captain Walter Dough’s fence. So l went by his directions, and as soon as I came to the place the signs were so plain that any one could see them. They appear like a cluster of caves with banks thrown up between them. Sever- wl large pine trees and live-oaks are grow- ing on the old fort and a smaller growth of dogwood, sassafras and holly. It is sit- uated on the east side of Roanoke Island about a mile anda half from the north end pear Walter Dough’s house. There is a place near the fort that goes by the name of the “Indian Hole,” which is also plain- ly to be seen. I send you an arrow head found near the fort.” _~oo———_—_ A little fun incidert te ‘Leap Year” is enjoyable, but we turn with contempt froin ap exhibition lately made in Phila- delpbia.

TOBACCO! | If ever you had a showing for fine prices, it is-in the crop of Tobacco to be planted this year. SST eT Taga GG WE keep a store, and strive to have in that store everything a farmer would like to buy, both for himself and his family. We want our customer to be a cheerful man, ~ and if he has money in his purse he twill be cheerful; but he can’t be if, when he comes to sell his crop, it brings him little or nothing. Everybody knows that on the fertilizer he uses, allowing the season to be at all favorable, depends the resnit of his crop, and this being the case, he has no right to risk that crop on anything that has not been tried and proved. The following will show what has been “tried and proved,” in the fertilizer way, on fine tobacco, and Major RaGianp, of Halifax county, Va., the great tobacco authority, and grower of pedigree tobacco seed, is the man who tells about it. If anybody knows what tobacco is he certainly does: “There are several brands of fertilizer manufactured specially for tobacco, differing in composition, price, and merit; and after repeated experiments with most, if not all the best, the author gives it as his decided opinion, that for fine, bright, silky tobacco, NOTHING EQUALS the ‘ANCHOR<G BRAND Tobacco Fertilizer, prepared by the Southern Fertilizing Company, Richmond, Va. And this opinion is based upen seventeen years’ trial, and often in competition with the best of other brands on the market. It is a tried and proved fertilizer, which the plant- er can use without the risk of getting something unsuited to his crop; and therefore I can recommed it with confidence.” Messrs. Mathews & Williamson, of Reidsville, N. C., wrote the following to the Company, and state that they have seen nothing since to change their judgment. “From eur own personal experience, and it covers a long time, in watching the re- sults from the use of various brands of cowmercial fertilizers handled in this section, it is our mature judgment that the ‘ANCHOR BRA stands at the head of all for the production of fine, silky, yellow tobacco. The plant seems to receive more fitting nourishment from the use of this article than from any other, and we are of opinion that if our farmers made it their stand-by, we would hear a of ight cue tobacco, having some color but no body, and that the farmer we sealize I ‘he ought to enjoy from his labor; for low-grade tobacco will not brig Mig money” Now we want you to bave’‘big money” for your crop; becatml you to make good bills with us, but pay for them when they are e dic the ‘Anchor Brand,’ and will supply you, in quantities to factory.

Wonderful Work. “When I determined to go to farm- ing, five years ago, I saw that it would not do to farm intheold way. I saw farmers around me getting poorer ev- ery day, thongh they worked like slaves, saw them starving their land so that each year their yield was scantier and their farms less valuable. I saw that it was still the plow fol- lowing the axe, and that as fast as the farmer starved out a pi:ce of land he cleared out a new piece. Worse than all, I saw that my own land rented to smal] farmers was 35 PER CENT POORER AND LESS VAL- UABLE than it was a few years ago, and that it would soon cease to pay me rent. I knew that Geergia was blessed with the best conditions ef season and soil, and that if properly treated it would yield large results. I therefore selected sixty-five acres of the poorest land I had and weut to work. The first thing, of course, was to enrich the soil. To do this there was but one way, tu feed it, and give it more food than the crops took from it, and above all to give it proper food. I knew that certain phosphat- ic manures stimulated the svi! so that it produced heavy erops for a while and then then fell off T wanted none of these. I did not believe in soil “What I wanted was to know ex- actly what a perfect cotton plant took from the soil. That ascertained, then restore to the soil exactly those ele- ments in larger quantity than the crop had abstracted from it. This is the ba- sis of intensive farming, and it will always give land that is richer year after year. I had acotten plant an- alyzed, and feund that I needed eight elements in my manure, which com- mercial fertilizers furnished only three I therefore determined to buy chemicals and mix them with humus, muck, decayed leaves, stable manure and cotton seed till I had secured exactly what was needed. I did so, and at last produc- | ed a perfect compost for cotton. I| then ascertained that my crop of eight bales had taken out of caok acre of my land as much of the constituents | of cotton as was held in 250 pounds of my compost. I therefore put 500 pounds of compost on each acre, re- storing double what the crop of the year before had taken out. The re- sult was that I made four bales extra. I then restored double what the twelve bales had taken out and made twenty- three bales. I doubled the restora- tion the next year and got furty-seveu bales. @ doubled again, and this year have ut least eighty bales.” “The manure cost me $3.60 a tlou- of buckshot through the back, and his condition is considered procarious. The difficulty originated some weeks ago in av effort of Frank Flyou to pre- vent one Doran from opeving a gambling house.

He returned a few nights ago, but Flynn was unaware of his preseneo ip the city until the fatal volley opened on him. ‘The seven men who did the shoot- ing were arrested and are now in jail.

Mathews & Williamson, of Reidsville, N. C., wrote the following to the ompany, and state that they have seen nothing since to change their judgment. “From our own personal experience, and it covers a long time, in watching the re- alts from the use of various brands of commercial fertilizers handled in this section, it is our mature judgment that the ‘4 MCHOR BRAND’ stands at the head of all that if our farmers made it their stand-by, we would hear less of light chaffy tobacco, having some color but no body, and that the farmer would realiae the result he ought D enjoy from !\:s labor; for low-grade tobacco will not bring big money.” Now we want you to have “big money” for your crop; because we not enly desire you to make gov: bills with us, but pay for them when they are made; hence we han- die the ‘Amchor Brand,’ and will supply you, in quantities to suit, direct from the only what time has shown to be the best.

A most remarkable case of human suf- fering, says a Philadelphia special to the | Baltimore Day, and one which has stead- ily baffled medical science, is reported in Springfield, Erie county, Pa.

The first year I pat) | BU) pounds to the acre—cost $1.80 an | lacre, or $111 for sixty-five acres. But lmy crop rose from eight to twelve | bales, the extra four bales giving me $200 surplus, or $83 net on my manure. Next year my manure, (1,000 pounds to the acre) cost $235 ; butmy crop increased to twenty-three bales from eight on unmanured land. These extra bales give me $750 or a net profit on manure of $516. The next year I used 2,000 pounds per acre at a cost $7.25 au acre, or $471 for total. But my crop went from eight to forty-seven bales, giving increased income of $1,500. This | yeur I use 4,000 pounds on an acre, | costing $14.50, or $942 for total man- lure. But my crop is at least eighty | bales with this manure, where it was ‘eight without. ‘This increase of sev- lenty-two bales is worth $3,600. De- duet cost of nanure $940 and we have $2,650 as the profit on use of manure.” “And then the land is so much “Certainly. It is worth $100 an acre, where it was formerly worth $5. /You must credit the manure with | this.”” “T shall double my manuring next year, putting 8,000 pounds to the acre. I belicve I will get 150 bales ‘from the 65 acres. I hope to push it up to three bales an acre. I havea few ‘acres on which I put 10,000 pounds ‘of compost as an experiment, and ev- ery acre of it will give me three bales this year.” | THE FORMULA FOR THE COMPOST. | Here is my formula: Take thirty | bushels of wejl-rotted stable manure, or well-rotted organic matter, as leaves, muck, ete., and scatter it about three inches thick upon a piece of ground so situated that water will not statnd on it, but shed off in every di- rection. The thirty bushels will weigh about, nine handred pounds ; take two hundred pounds of good phosphates, which cost me $22.50 per ton delivered, making the 200 pounds cost $2.25, and 100 pounds kainit, which cost me by the ton $14, deliv- ered, or 70 cents for 100 pounds, and mix the acid phosphate and kainit thoreughly, thea scatter evenly on the manure. Then next thirty bush- els green cotton seed aud distribute evenly over the pile, aud wet them thoroughly ; they will weigh vine hundred ponds, take again two hun- dred pounds acid phosphate and one hondred pounds kainit, mix and spread over the seed, begin on the manure and keep on in this way, building up your heap layer by layer until you get it as high as conveni- ent, then cover with six inches of rich earth from the fence corners, and leave at least a week ; when ready to haul to the field cut with a spade or pickaxe square down and mix as thoroughly as possible. Now, we have thirty bushels of manure weigh- ing nine hundred pounds, and three hundred pounds chemicals in the first layer, and thirty bushels cotton seeds, weighing nine hundred pounds, and three hundred pounds of chemicals in the second layer, and these two layers combined for the -perfect compost. You perceive that the weight is 2,400. Valued at cost is: 30 bushels cotton seed 400 pounds acid phosphate 200 pam kainit Stable manure nominal. — Total $9.65 Or for 2,400 pounds a total value of nine dollars.and sixty-five cents. This mixture makes practically a perfect manure for cotton and asplen- did application for corn. It restores to the soil everything the cotton toek from it, except silica, which is in the soil in inexhaustible quantity. So that when you put ina larger quanti- ty of these than the cotton took out, your soil is evidently richer. I have shown you the money profit in man- ure. I’ve shown you the added val- ue it gives to Jand. There are many other advantages. You make your crop quicker and with less danger. I made Jast year, mark this, forty- seven bales on sixty-five acres in three months and five days. It was plant- ed June 5th, and the caterpiler finish- ed it on September 10th. I showed the agricultural society a stalk five fee high with 126 bolls by actual count ou it. The seed from which this plant grew was planted just fifty-nine days before. Cotton grown this way $3.75 4.50 1.40 _can be picked with half the cost and time of ordinary cotten. On my cot- ton land this year I raised 100 bush- els of oats to the acre, and after clean- ing off the stubble 1 plandted the cotton, one stalk of which I showed the convention,” “One is not to drop the cotton seed in a continuous row, but simply to put a few seed in the hill where you want a plant. By strewing the seed in a sprinkled row there is a great waste. A cotton sced is like an egg, when the chick is born there is neth- ing but the shell left. The fertilizing power of this seed is lost. Worse than this. It draws from the svil for the elements that make it gcow. It is left to deplete the soil in this way for two weeks at least, and is then chop- ped down, leaving only one out of twenty plants to grow to fruitage. My plan is to plant four or five seed inahill. Tbe hills to stand in four feet squares. Of these I would let two plants to the hill grow to perfec- tion. It takes from two to four bushels of seed to plant an acre in the old way. By my plana peck to the acre is enough, and the soil is not drawn to support a multitude of sur- plus plants for two or three wecks. Planting in four foot squares is better than the old way. “Cotton isa sun plant and needs room for its roots. When cramped to 12 or 15 inches it cannot attain its perfect growth. My aim is to put the plants two together in four foot squares, and average 75 to 150 bolls to the plant. This will give mea pound of seed cotton to the plant, or three bales to the acre. “JT never touch it with a hoe. The growth ef cotton comes from the spreading filaments that reach out from the root and feed it. If these are destreyed the growth stops until they are restored. I am satisfied that three hoeings lost me eighteen days of growth or six days each. 1 run a shallow plow along the cotton rows and never ge deep encugh to cat the roets. But there are more details in which men may differ, The main thing is the intensive system of ima- nuring and the husbanding all the droppings and wastage of the farm for compost. I can take 100 acres of land in Georgia, aud at a nominal cost can bring its production from a sixth of a bale to three bales an acre in five years, Avy man can do it. “My tenants are adopting the in- tensive plan, and are very much en- couraged. Some few neighbers are using my formula, I have sent out I suppose five hundred formulas for composting. The speech [ made be- fore the agricultural association crea- ted mere excitement than anything for years. The members did not rel- ish my statements, I saw plainly. They sent E. G. Greer, the secretary, to Milledgeville to see my crops and verify my statements. He is to-day the most enthusiastic man in Georgia over the system I am working on. “You understand,” added Mr. Fur- man, in conclusion, “that I have no possible interest iu the matter outside of my crops. I have no receipt to sell, no phosphates, no fancy seed, no land. What I have isan has been with common seed on poor land, with cheap manure, and any man, without price or purchase, can do what I have done, I am satisfied to make my money out of the ground, I want none from my fellow-farmers. “The difficulty with us all is that we try to farm too much land. I’m good for $3,000 with two mules and sixty-five acres. Next year I’ll beat this. In the meantime, I’m ‘bring- ing up’ twenty-five new acres. I nev- er want over one hundred acres. These I will cultivate with three mules, and I'll make 250 bales of cotton on them besides all the corn and oats I need. “T am anxious,” he added, “to see my plan adopted. If it is done we shall have the best State in the world. Why look at France. Her recupera- tive power is the wonder of the world. And what is it based on? Simply that she can raise two crops—one of those a lentil crop—in one season. But in middle Georgia I can raise three crops per season ou a piece of land and leave it richer than when I started, viz: eats, cotton or corn and peas. There is nothing like it.

THe FLoov.—The recent high waters of the Ohio and its confluents will mark a polot in the history of the country along those streams. The late tlood has far ex- ceeded anything heretofore recorded, aud has resulted in the loss of willions of property. The loss of life has been smal). The progress of the rising waters though rapid, allowed the people time to escape, though the loss of live stock has beep heavy. Let us suppose for a moment what would be the effect of a sixty foot rise in the Yadkin river. Every mill on {ts banks would be swept away, and only those dwellings and other building stand- ing on high hills would escape. The| waters would spread out into the country for miles, washing away feuces and build- jugs without number. Rich bottom lauds would be destroyed together with all that wight be ou them. A tise of 30 feet Would be fearfully destructive, but 60| would be a most appalling calamity. Such it has been in the country alepy the Ohio and its tiibutaries. Whole towns and cities have been snbmerged and their jnhabitants driven out into the fields and woods to find shelter and comfort as best | they could. Widely scattered Alstress | prevails, aud no one can knew the misery these people have suffered from cold and privation of the comforts of life. One of the causcs of these terrible floods is the destruction of the timber. It will be well to remember it. Wooded lauds with their leaves, like spenge, hold back the rains which fall upon them and serve to prevent sudden rises in the streams, thas giving time to the waters to run off, The cleared lands afford no sueh aid, but the waters, as a geveral thiug, @ow rap- idly into the streams and give usa snd- den rise—a disastrous flood. Timbered laud has jts use in maby ways, contribut- ing to the health, comfort and wealth of the community, and it will bea sad time when it shall all give way to the rapacity | of this progressive and aggressive race. eee Av Engineer Draws $25,000.

Seveu cities coutended, ancient history tells us, for Homer's birthplace. Old Hickory Jiickson seems somewhat alike iu Fate. The subject of his dirthplace is again revived in ‘a work of J. Esten Cooke, ealled “Virginia,” which is said by brother Kingsbury .to have. merit. This work claims that the old hero was bem ia Virginia. “Upon. what meat! dues this our Car feed that he has grown so great.” VirginiaT Like Ben. Hill, of Georgia, we feel like taking off our hat wheuvever the nawe of Virgivia is mentioned. But we like magnanimity and do net like to see Virginia lowering her fame by being a common, vulgar goarmand of greatuess. She must not be a poacher in other fulks’ fields. Gen. Jackson was bornin what was then North Carolina but what has since be- come by a later survey and straightea- ing of lines, Soath Carolina. Parton proves that, and Dr. Hawks, iv one e the most touching tributes tw Jackseu’'s mother that our literature affords, as- serfs the same. Jackson was born iv North Carvlina, Let that be the end of it. We will not say that no other soil could produce sacha product, but we thought it, Ju his “Nallification Pruela- mation” he spoke of the South Carolioa nallifiers as sous of his native State, bat he apoke that for effect and was referring to the State as then oat his birth- place. Jackson was a North Caroliviau, lived im Salisbury, N. C., aud fought chickens there, and could beat any mao of his day ia the art and mystery of gaf- hug a eock. , This reference to Jackson living in Salisbury,is a faet more indisputable than the exact place of his birth. The office in which he stadied law was left standing for many$years after it ceased to be fit fer use,on account of the memories with which it was eonneeted. Indeed, it was not re- moved until the early part of 1876, and then by an enterprising northern mau who beught it, separated it in three or four pieces and transported them to the Philadelphia Centennial in 1876, where he preposed toset them up soas to present the building entire in its origi- val size and form. __ How 1s Tarts ?—It is: publicly announ- ced that the Govervor of Virgivia has twice refased the requisition of Gor. Jarvis for certain persons of that State who by force and violence wrested from the custedy of an efficer of Alleghany county, N. C., a man of Virginia who was under arrest for an assault with deadly weapon with intent to kill. Surely there must be something in the form of requisi- tion not complied with by the Govermor of North Caoolina even after two trials, upon which the Governor of Virginia bases his refusal; for we are not yet prepared to belieye that the Gorerner of Virgivia designs to make “the mether of States” a rogue’s harbor or city of refnge for the blood stained criminal, I Tue INTERNAL REVENUE.—From pres- ent appearances this session of Congress way end without anything being douete relieve the people who so justly complain of thia system.

Congressional actios seems likely to be defetred until another year, by the raisiog of a question as to the constitutional power of Congress in regard to such regulation. As to charges for transpertation of freight from and ‘to points within auy State, there can be no Feasonable doubt of its being a matter exclusively under State control, ner can there be any doubt as to the right of Con- gress to regulate charges for freight trans- portated from a poiut within any State to a point within another State. The question raised refers to the con- stitutional right of Congresa to regulate charges upon railways chartered by State governments and a proposition has been made (that a committee be appointed with fall power to make ab exhaustive investi- gation of the whole matter, and to report to the next Congress, thas temporarily staying the work of Mr: Reagan, of Tex- as, whose wise courage and unyielding iutegrity and persistence are sure to fin- ally wia. While the question raised appears to be in the interest of railway compavies desiriug delay, it may in the end prove to be a benefit to the country by result- ing in the adoption of fall and complete measures for the regulation contemplated. It is useless for rrilway companies to ex- pect that they will much longer be per- mitted to veil their ways from the full public knowledge and criticism which their position as corporate public servants justifies and requires, in order that the people may to a certainty know that their rights and interests are fairly pro- tected. The time is not far distant when the owners and managers of profitable trunk line railways will have a very earnest appreciation of the need ef government intervention to prevent the building of parallel lives uot required by public ne- ceasity, while government regulation of the charges of those already existing wil] be found equally necessary in order to prevent a tuiuons cutting of rates by the managers of ove or two important roads aeameans of depressing the value of railway stocks and bonds generally, and the carrying of pre-arranged stock specu- lations tu a successful conclusion. The conditions above referred to are in some respects likely to be fully realiz— ed withiu a very short time iv the buila— ing of the West Shore and Buffalo Rail- road, now nearly completed, aud of the South Pennsylvania Railroad, paralleling respectively the New York Central and the Pennsylvania Central and the Penn- sylvania railroads. ‘The building of oth- er parallel lines for the purpose of forcing concessions from roads yielding lurge profits, will not long be deferred, and railway stockholders will soon be found secouding the demands of the graugers for government control, in order that the value of their property shall not be de- stroyed, and such intervention and con- trol, once fairly started, will soon beceme as cowplete as public interests require.

The deceased was widely knowu as a popular hotet keeper, for many years, both before and since the war, having beeu thus em- ployed in Raleigh, Morganton, Asheville and Salisbury. He was surrounded by his family and many frien’s during his illness and at his death, who were unre- mitting in their devoted and kind atten- tions. ———o Who is Mr. T. D. Gillespie, Superin- tendent of the Eastern Division of the Southern Express Cq.? It is a Rowan and Iredell county name of high respect- ability, and Mr. T. D. Gillespie, it ap- pears, is an honor to his ancestors, who- ever they may be. He was unexpectedly made the subject of a very handsome compliment by the officers and employees of the Southern Express Co., last week at Jacksonville, Fla. They surprised him by a most formal presentation of a valuable “Jorgensen” watch with a beau- tiful illuminated monogram, as a testi- monial of his faithful and efficiently per- formed duties. Eloquent speeches from distinguished men characterized the oc- casion and fairly overwhelmed the ham- ble maa who did not seem aware of any special merit. Good for Mr. Gillespie and instructive and encouraging to those who are faithful to public trusts. — —_o-—-——— One of the main drawbacks to Salisbu- ry, as acentre for the tobacco trade, is the condition of our public thoroughfares. But few teames can stand it to haul a full load of tobacco to Salisbury —for ten miles in most direetions, the road beds are sub- merged jn very moist dust, making it ex- tremely hard on stock. The streets and back lots, or hitching lots of Salisbury are in the same moist condition. It isa serious question to our county and town people—this road question is. Whatcan be dove? [f anything, let there be a start made. Nothing of value can be accom- plished in a short time. The work must be of a substantial character, and pursued with systematic vigor. Will the people of the county and town come together and discuss this qaestion so important to all. The Watchman would like sugges- tions from its regular township correspon- dents. —— ee THE SeEcoND ATTEMPT SuccessrUL.— Nows redches us that Mr. Gus Graber, a citizen of Rowan cennty, Monday eom- mitted suicide at his home near China Grove, but by what mode we could not learn. Mr. Graber, it will be remembered by our readers, about a year ngo madean attempt at suicide by cutting bis throat. He cut a frightful gash, but it was a lit tle too high and the doctors succeeded in saving him. Hehas been in a melan- cholic mood for several years past and his determination to destroy himself, in which he has at length succeeded, is at- tributed to Insanity.— Char. Observer. The WatcumaNn has been unable to learu any of the particulars, as reported above. Mr. Greber, now living in Ala- mance county, is reported by lis sons, as deing very well, and is following his trade—carpentering. The coroner has not been called on to any auch case near China Grove, so there must be some mia- take. We think Mr. Graber has conclud- ed that it is better to build good houses than to destroy his own earthly taberua- cle. o Marrlage of Mr. Baker and Miss Drake. Trinity Episcopal church was crowded Wednesday evening, by a throng which was eagor to witvess the marriare of Mr. David A. Baker, of the hardware firm of Messrs. Baker & Woods, and Miss Caro- line May, daughter of Mr. W. P. Drake, all of Statesville. It was nearly 9 o'clock when the bridal party entered the charch and proceeded ap the ajsle to the music of organ and trembons, played respect- ively by Miss Lilly Warner and Prof. W. H. Neave, both of Salisbury. The atten- dants were: Mr. Archibald Young of Salisbury and Miss Florence Mott of Statesville. Mr. J. F. Carlton of Statesville and Miss Crissie Winslow of Goldsboro. Mr, T. J. Witherspoon and Miss Kate Ludwig, of Statesville. Mr. H. C. Martiu and Miss Lon Drake, of Statesville. Mr. J. B. Gill of Statesville and Miss Josephine Baker of Salisbary. Mr. J. B. Wooda of Statesville (best man) aud Miss Bestha Drake of States- ville (first bridesmaid). Misses Agues Neave of Salisbury and Ada Dean of Statesville, flower girls. The groom, followed with the bride’s mother on bis arm, and the bride on the arm of her father. The marriage was with two rings, and according to the cer- emony of the Episcopal Charch, Rev, Ed- ward Wooten officiating. Messrs. R. A. Evans and J. 8S. McRorie discharged the duties of ushers. Everything passed off smoothly, without hitch or hindrance. The bride, who is admired for a very high order of beauty, and who looked queenly in her bridal robes, was given away by jail and receive the senteuce of the court her father. The groom appeared at his very best. ce and Mrs, Baker took the eastern bound train after midnight for Salisbury, where the family of the former resides, and where they will remain for a few days.— Landmark. The bridal party was tendered a recep- tion by the parents of the groom, at their residence on Charch street. The hall and reeption rooms were decorated in the mest tasty manner. The bride and groom received uoder an arch of flowers, the many guests who came to extent congrat- ulations. A most beautiful and elegant spread was made, which was enjoyed by all. The reception has been characteriz- ed as tbe most brilliant social ¢veot of the season. On Tuesday evening Mr. and Mrs. Baker were given a social par- ty by Mr. and Mrs. Edward B. Neave. The happy pair have retarned to their new home in Stateaville. They have the good wishes of this community attending them. OO A Systematic anp Lone ConTinceD RosBery DiscLosep.—One morning last woek, Mr. Thos. Rainey, the beok keep- er and ‘principal elerk at A. Parker’s Variety Store and Bakery combined, saw the marks of a broom on the floor, avd some scattered corn and flour, Examin- ing the bins where the articles are kept, he discovered that a large partof their con - tents had been removed during the night. This fact was reported to Mr. Parker. They determined to keep their own | council, and at the same time to watch. They were in the habit of leaving a cer- tain amount of money, in change, ip the money drawer, in addition, two small box- es fer 1, 2, and 3 cent pieces, which were left outside and just above the drawer.

Ov Tuesday, Barber gave bond, haying persuaded Mr. Parker to go his bail, and to secure him, gave as collateral, or security, his property bere, which is worth something over a thoasand dollars.

Opinion of Altorney General Kenan in Reply to an Inquiry. ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE, : RaLeiGH, Febraary, 13. W. S. Primrose, President N. C. State Exposition. Drar Str :—In reply to your letter of the 12th inst., 1 have the honor to say that the powers conferred by law upon the connty commissioners, and to be exercised for the benefit of the public, are numerous and extensive. The Code says that every county isa body corporate, and shall have the pow- ers prescribed by statute and those neces- sarily implied by law. These powers must be exercised in pursuance of reso- lotions adopted by the board of commis- sioners, and, in certain specified cases, with the cuncurrence of the justices of the peace. Andthey ‘may make such orders for the disposition or use of pro- perty or the county as the jnterests of its inhabitants require.” Secs. 702-704.

It cen- cerns the public, and was inaugurated to secure favorable results tothe State at large. I therefore think that the chse is within the power of the county authori- ties, and that they may exercise the power by appropriating money to enable its resources at the ensuing Expesition, ifthey shall determine that the same is necessary for the good of the county and to the interest of its inhabitants. Ne spé- eial tax could be levied for the purpose and vo sabscription of stock in the Expo- nition Association by the county could be made, withent the consent of the Leg- islature, as has been frequently decided; but this of course is not contemplated, In considering the matter, however, I think the commissioners would act in conjunction with a majority of the justi- cesof the peace of the county, and it seems to me that no valid ebjection could be interposed to restrain them from giv- ing to the enterprise such reasonable and substantial encouragement as the finan- cial condition of the county would in their judgment warrant. Indeed, such action and the aid thus given, weuld be in harmony with the spirit of the con- stitution, which requires the Legislature te maintain a department of agriculture; and also with the spirit ef The Cede, which directs an annual appropriation to be made to the State andto county agricultural societies (sections 2,218-2,222) and empowers ‘‘county ,commissioners to appoint fairs in their respective coun- ties” forthe encouragement of indastry, and to regulate the same by a system of by laws.

A lady enclosing $5 for it writes as follows: “In October last, directly after the first meeting of the General Convention in Philadelphia, a gentleman and lady en- tered a crowded street car. The seats all being taken, the lady stood, but a white- haired venerable man, near by, seemed very uucomfortable in seeing this, and after a little, arose and insisted upon giv- ing his seat to the Jady—who could not think of acceptirg the courteous offer. A gentleman next to him, soon arose and she, thinking be was about to leave the car, took bis seat. The old gentleman kindly laid his hand upon bers, saying in a laughing tone, ‘Ab, 1 shall 1emember this: you took his seat, but would not take mine.” “We found that this saintly man was none other than Bishop Green, who had travelled the previous night through, on his way from Chicago, had joined in the four hours service at Christ church, and whose courtesy would then, not allow a lady to stand.” Bishop Green was born in this city.

The district attorney of Kings county, New York, has unearthed a conspiracy that has long been iv successful opera- tion to obtain bogus divorces, through a system of forgeries. The practice there is for the jadge to appoint a commission - erte take testimony in such cases, and when the evidence is reported to the court, to grant or reject the application for a decree of divorce. In these bogus eases the clerk of the eourtand a law firm, with a witness or two, whose names, and testimony varied ors to the special uirements of euch case, were the chief actors. They forced orders, took perjured testimony, made false re- orte and forged decrees, which, however, was unduly inquisitive, aud the whole conspiracy came to light. So far fifty frandulent divorces have been discovered, and how many more there are remains to be seen. The clerk of the court, the handy witnesses and one of the lawyers have been arrested, the other lawyer has fled.

At a a town meeting held in Montgomery county, nine democrats and one Repubdli- can were elected as supervisors. Mont- gomery county gave Garfield 283 majori- ty. In Fulton county, which gave Gar- field 1,106 majority, the Democrats elect- ed six supervisors and the Republicans four. Herkimer, where Garfield’s major- ity was 1,261, elected nine democrats, eight Republicans and one independent as supervisors. Chemung gave Hancock 170 majerity and now elects nine Demo- crats and three Republicans as supervis- ore; this is stated to be a Democratic gain over last year of four. If this elec- tion shows the drift of public opinion in the counties, it weuld seem to be very favorable to the Democrats. me Mr. Randall is quoted as favoring an: adjournment of Congress before the meet-' ing of the national Democratic conven- tion, which he thinks should be held in in June. As the Senate and the Presi- dent are Republican, the House cannot expect to de much legislation, and so an early adjournment may be anticipated ; but the House should proceed at once to tender such issues as indicate the Demo- cratic position. There should be no at- tempt by an early adjournment to evade taking a pronounced position on the great questions of the day.— News & Ob- server. -——-~>>-_—__———_ The New York Times, although the strongest Republican paper in the Union, is honest enough to take acalm view of the Danville riot. It says: ‘The evi- dance taken Thursday in the inuvestiga- tion of the Danville viot tends to contirm in & personal altercation between a white man and @ Begro on the street. The ex- cited state of the public mind growing out of loeal politics brought on the sub- sequent collision. There has never yet been the slightest indication that it was the result of a deliberate purpose to intimidate the negroes. As a matter of fact, they were intimidated, and refrained from voting three days later through fear of violence, but that was a natural result of the disturbance and the feeling which it engendered. Had more time elapsed, the feeling would probably have subsid- ed, though there was a constant state of éxasperation on both sides which was likely to cause disturbance on the slight- est provocation.” The italics ure ours; but then the gist of the matter lies right in those words.

Everybody knows that on the fertilizer he uses, allowing the season to be at all favorable, depends the resnit of his crop, and this being the case, he has no right to risk that crop on anything that has not been tried and proved. The following will show what has been “tried and proved,” in the fertilizer way, on fine tobacco, and Major Ragianp, of Halifax county, Va., the great tebacco authority, and grower of pedigree tobacco seed, is the man who tells about it, | If anybody knows what tobacco is he certainly does: “There are several brands of fertilizer manufactured specially for tobacco, differing! in composition, price, and merit; and after repeated experiments with most, if not all’ the best, the author gives it as his decided opinion, that for fina, bright, silky tobacec NOTHING EQUALS the ‘ANCHOR<E BRAND’ ~ Tobacco Fertilizer, prepared by the Southern Fertilizing Company, Richmond, Na. And this opinion is based upen seventeen years’ trial, and often jn competition with the best of other brands on the market. It is a tried and proved fertilizer, which the plant- ér ean use without the risk of getting something unsuited to his crop; and therefore I €an recommed it with confidence.” Messrs, Mathews & Williamson, of Reidsville, N. C., wrote the following to the Company, and state that they have scen nothing since to change their judgment, “From eur own personal experience, and it covers a long time, in watching the re- sults from the use of various brands of commercial fertilizers handled in this section, it is our mature judgment that the ‘A MWCHOR BRAND’ stands at the head of all for the production of fine, silky, yellow tobacco. The plant seems to receive more fitting nourishment from the use of this article than from any other, and we are of opinion that if our farmers made it their stahd-by, we would bear less of light chaffy tobacco, having some color but no body, and that the farmer would realize the result he ought to enjoy from his labor; for low-grade tobacco will not bring big money.” Now we want you to bave “big money” for your crop; because we not only desire you to make good bills with us, but pay for them when they are made; hence we han- die the ‘Anchor Brand,’ and will supply you, in quantities to suit, direct from the factory. We don’t want people to abuse us about their fertilizer; we, therefore, sell only what time has shown to be the best. So, make no arrangements in this line, until you see or confer with us. You certainly can’t afford to take any risk this year.

Their object is not Snly to kill, but to crash their prey se that there may be less trouble in swal- lowing it. Snakes, as a rule, are very slow in assimilating food. -In many cases they have been known te coil themselves coi trees after their sump- ta sive fi and remain perfectly pas- weeks. A boa posses- 808 les of great strength, and has a rful power of contracting and re- laxingthem. By this power itis enabled to dart its head forward against its prey with lightning rapidity. Its long, sharp teetir petit downward toward its meuth, so that, having once drawn an ebject in- to its mouth, the snake cannot very well release it, and before swallowing its prey a boa-constrictor discharges upon it from the goef of its moath, an oily fiaid, which makes its passage, through a compara- tively small threat, easy. A naturalist in New York has the skin of a snake twenty-two feet ia length, which be kill- ed.iv South America. “I was np the Ama- zon, and being anxious to get a large svake, I offered a reward for one, and soon heard of a big fellow that had been seen about three miles from where I was. 1 immediately moved into the pveighbor- hood, and after we had scoured the coun- try several days, the boy I bad with me came running through the bushes in great excitement, saying that a big bea avd the sdnbas {antsy were having a fight. The, sau Was are foraging ants that put to flight man and beast. When they enter a house the owner steps out and rans for his lif ;,and when I came to the snake | found it in a similar fix. It had swal- lowed some exceedingly large animal, and,.whilat almost unable to move, bad bean attacked by the ants. The grass, bushes, twigs avd leaves, were black witli Tusects, and every moment er two the gfeat reptile would lift itself im the air and sway about savagely, theagh without effect. I saw that the ants would destroy it in. an bour, sol sent my boy back to the village to get a rope, and took to the trees myself. In balf an bour the boy returned with twenty men. I lassoed the snake, and we mavaged to drag him out of his retreat and away from the ats. He was so sluggish un- der the rough treatmeat thit I was able to place my pistol within six inches of his head, when I shot him.”— Youth's Companion. A Warning to Dogs. The great Dr, Watts said, “Let dogs delight to bark and bite,” and so they do ; but not without coming to grief. The other day a handsome carriage was rolling along the St. Alban’s road. Under the forward axle gallopped a sleek couch dog. His pace was 80 timed with that of the horses that he did not appear to vary a hair’s- breadth >fo’ lia position. He knew every dog was looking at him and ad- miring him, but he didn’t let that turn his head, Other dogs came out and scowled at him, but they were with him. So on he went with beau- tiful regularity, his brass collar with his master’s name glittering in the sun, and all was peace till a snarly cur, riding on a wagon full of sacks, and barking at everything that pass- ed, cadght sight ef the sleek dog gal- loping 80 compesedly beneath the handsome carriage. The couatry dog was a lank animal, with dun-colored, tangled bair, and a desire to show off. Withom) -the » faintest hesitation he sprang fram. the sacks, and made a headlong dash on the spotted coach- dog. Whether he mistook the length of bis stride or ihe revolution of the whieels is nét known, but he had his mouth open and his teeth in readi- 3 set for a bite, when the forward wheel étruck him and knocked him forward, and the off horse gave him a kick that sent him back again, and the forward wheel passed over him and turned him .ever, and the bind wheel climbed ap ou him and went griudingly down on the other side. And then the carriage went on just the same as before, leaving the coun- try dog on his back, yelping with his ae to Cobcae: ing of t | the green us trees, and what an egregious fool he had made of him- rself.’ Letithis ‘be a* warning to the ddmestic intelligent dog. ceaceenienniacenip la pecnaeamtnsess Centuries ago the oak was by far the mest valuable forest tree in Eng- land, on account of acerns for fatten- ing hogs.

As a matter of county pride Rowau should have a showing. The Exposition is assured, and the euly thing for our people to consider is the part, if any, they propose to have in it.

Public Meeting. According to announcement, a public metting was held in the Ceurthoase tast Friday at 1 o'clock, for the perhene of ascertaining the sentiment in regard to Rowan’s taking part, by way of making an exhibit of resources at the coming State Exposition. Juo. 8. Henderson, Esq., was called to the chair, and T. K. Bruner requested to act as secretary. The Chairman presum- ing thatthe object of the meeting was perfectly understood by those present, invited Mr. H. E, Fries, the Sec., of the Expeaition, who was present, to make some explanatory statements in regard to the work. Mr. Fries made a clear and forcible statement of the whole work from its organization, and peinted out the many possible and practical results to beattained by the holding of the Exposition, and urged the importance of Rowan’s putling her shoulder to the wheel. On motion of Luke Blackmer, Esq., Messrs. T. K. Bruner and Lee S. Over- man were appointed a committee to solicit subscriptions to the capital stock in this county to the enterprise. The chair was requested to bring the matter befere board of County Commis- sioners, and solicit their co-operation in making Rowan’s Eexhibit as full as pessi- ble, and to solicit means to this end. On motion of Mr. M. L. Helmes, the Chair was requested to request the Board of County Commissioners to call, or have called a meeting of the Magis- trates of the county for the purpose of consideriag the advisability of appro- priating funds to enable Rowan to be fully and officially represented in the State Exposition. No further basiness the meeting adjourved. Jno. 8. HenpeRSON, Ch’m. T. K. Bruner, Sec. o Drowned in the Catawba River. The saddest occurrence which {has fallen to our lot tochronicle for many years, is the drowning of Rev. Thos. G. Thurston, aud his daughter Miss Allie, in the Catawba river, on last Friday eye- ning. No ove witnessed the occurrence, and there are many theories as to how it occurred. It seems that he in com- pany with his daughter, had left Hieko- ry, just after dinner on Friday, to go to Taylorsville, where he was to preach on Sunday. Wher they reached the River, at Oxford Ford, sume 12 miles from Hickory, they fouud that the recent rains had swoolen the current some two feet over the usual waterline. It is supposed that he left Miss Allie on the bank while he dreve across and deposited on the epposite bank, a small trank and some light baggage, across which he threw his overcoat. Tracks where the buggy turn- ed were visible. He the stream to get his danghter ; here again are the tracks where he turned to go into the stream. ‘The ford is what is knewn as a horse shoe ford, i. e., it dips down stream in the semi-circle, and it when he had getten third time, the strength of the ‘horse, which was small, began to fail as it breasted up stream, and that Mr. Thurs- ton turned his head down stream, essay- jug to make the bank at a point below the reguiar ford. This is sometimes done by those who are familiar with the crossing. But just in this direction there isa deep hole on the edge of which isa shelving rock. In this hole there isa circular current, or whirlpool; and it is known that the under current passing then recrossed centre, forming a is that the supposed nearly across | | | | | | bear was earnest and wutiring in his duties as a minister of the gospel. His sense of duty was, next te his spirituality, the prominent featare of his voble character. He never failed to meet an appointment —through‘all kinds of weather, always managing to be be where the few were gathered together. His failure to be at Taylorsville on last Sunday was the first appointment be ever failed te mect—his crossing the river proved to be the river ef death. He and his daughter have goue where no ware of trouble shall roll across their haven of blessed rest, in answer to an unexpected summons from the Master, whem they loved te serve so well. Mr. Thurston, at the time of his death, was serving the chareh at Hickory aud the one at Taylorsville, dividing his time between them, and in additions to this work, was engaged as principal in the Hiekory Highland Academy—a school for boys, with some twenty-five or thirty scholars. The Presbyterian Chureh has lost ove of its most active and sealous workers, and the churches at Hickery and Taylors- ville a beloved and faithful pastor. He leaves a wife and two small children. With these the hearts of his people are bleeding, and with them they are weeping —mingliog their tears in deep sympathy and love witb the desolate and sadly bereaved. Tue late storm along the Uwharrie river, in Montgomery eounty, an acceunt of which will be found ino this paper, was fully confirmed by a letter to us from Mr. John F. Cotton, of Flaggtown. The accounts differ so slightly that we deem it unnecessary. to make a repetition by pabishising Mr Cotton’s report of the particulars. We give, however the fol- lowing extract: | To recapitulate: Six persons killed outright, one since dead, and many (uam- ber unknown) burt. “At most place the houses and fencing are blown down. Wheat and corn blown away, clothing and bedding destroyed and scareely a vestige of forage left. Pieces of baeon are found in the weods, and by the wayside, the debris of build- jngs scattered everywhere, and the same of clothing and househeld geods. These sufferers need help, they are homeless and naked, without provisions —without everythivg. Any cootribu- tioms yeu can secure for the sufferers, if sent to me, will be faithfully applied or turned over to the preper authority for distribution. Truly Yours, Joun F. Corton.” On the reception of the above, ‘ues- | day morning last, an hoar or two spent on the streets presenting the claims of these sufferers, resalted in raising a cou- tribution of about $30.00, which was for- ward to Mr. Cetten. Persons wishing to contribute to this fund are requested to call at the First Natioval Bank where a list for contriba- tions is left. $e A Terrific Explosion. oo London Excited Over Another Supposed Dynamite Explosion. Lonpon, Feb. 26.—Shortly after 1 o'clock this morning a terrible explosion occurred in the cleak room at the Victo— ria railway station iu London. The ex- plosive agent was undoubtedly dynamite. A large portion of the roof was blown off, ly all the glass work in the station |destroyed aud seven men sent to the | | hospital with severe injaries. } | Was ex | | | | | ing property. |the explesion, the noise being like that There tensive damage to the surrouud- Two reports accompanied from the discharge of acannon and was over this inclined rock is 80 strong as to | followed by immediate rushing of flames sweep a horse from his feet in ordinary water—that it is nnpossible for man or beast to keep to their feet on this reck: It is supposed that here the accident oe- curred, 1a this whirlpool the horse and baggy were found—the horse lying on the buggy, feet up, as if he had reared ap and fallen back. Some papers and Mr. Thurston’s pocket-book were picked up, floating over this whirlpool, the current being so strong inits circular motion as to hold these floating articles thirty hours. It wasfrom these papers that it was known who had been lest. The intelli- gence was received iu Hickory late on Saturday evening. On Sunday the banks of the river op both sides were crowded with people in search for the bodies of the drowned. Atl o’clock, the hour Mr. Thurston was to bave appeard ip his pulpit in Taylorsville, the body was discovered and taken from the water. It was about balf a mile below the whirl- pool described. The search so far has proyen unsnecessful as to the discovery of the body of Miss Allie, no traces what- ever having been found. She was in her 17th year. On last Tuesday the funeral of Mr. Thurston was conducted from the Pres- byterian church at Hickory. All busij- ness was suspended in the towa, and bundreds of people were present to pay their last respects to the hover of a guod man. His school came in and was seated near the front. There were tears in every eye, as these little ones, wearing their badges of mourning, gazed mourofully at the cold form of their beloved teach- er. Rev. Mr. Anderson of Morganton, preached the sermon, while, Dr. Wood, Rev. Paul Wiun and Rev, Mr, Clapp pronounced eulogies. Rev. Mr. Jolinston. of Liucoluton concladed the services at grave. Mr. Thurston was the son of a Presb y- terian missionary to the Sandwich Is- lands, where he was born. He was edu- cated at Yale College, and was fora number of years a missionary to the land of his pativity. He came to North Carli- na some eight or ten years ago, and join- ing Concord Presbytery, has labored with nousnal activity and carnestness iv the counties of Alexander and Catawba. | The booking office, cloak room and wait- ing room were completely shattered and are a confused mass of debris. Lackily all trains had ceased running aud only a few persons were about the station. 6:30 a. m,—The explosion shattered the windows of the Metropolitan Under- greund Railway depot, sixty yards dis- tant, and the fronts of houses for the same distance in other directions were badly damaged. The Victoria refresh- mept roem was wrecked, and a clock eight feet high was blown from the wall and threwn six yards away. The streets in the neighborhood are cowpletely strewn with broken glass. A namerous force of police anda fire brigade quickly reached tho spot and quenched the fire, thus saving the depot. The debris if left antounched till the ar- rival of Col.

Those who were fortunate enough to see the varied, extensive and beautiful assortment of raw materials by which North Carolina was represented at the New England exhibition in this city last fall, must have marvelled much at the resorces of the old North State, hitherto unsuspected by almost all who had net dwelt among them; and have felt that there were needed only capital, enter- prise and skill to erect that State iuto a paradise of beauty and prosperity. But North Carolina does not stand alone in the splendor of her possibilities. The pataral wealth of Georgia has been longer known and more generally available, which in the new and promising indus—- try of eetton manufacturing there is be- tween them an honerable and healthy rivalry for pre-emimence. * ° The cotton mills of the South have even less excuse forasking for protection thao those at the North; labor can be obtained almost as cheaply as iu England, while the Eugiish manufacturer has to over- come the obstacle of double transporta- tion over the thousands of miles of ocean before he can come into competition with the manufacturers of North Carolina and Georgia. The position maintained by the Southern people ov the question of protection in the past is the position that they should take with renewed en- thusiasm and determination pow that the South is becaming s manvafacturing sec- tion. It can compete with the world if it is left free to doso; but let it start out with the idea that development isa question of sabsidies and artificial stima- lation and it is preparing the way fora fitful history, uot forthe steady pros- perity which it can command through its evvironmest. We want to see the South prosperous, not by making use of, the false props and leyor which older manu- facturing sections are getting ready to lay duwn.— Boston Post, Dem. —-——_——_ An Open Letterto My People. Wasuineton, D. C., February 20th, I304. In answer te the many letters and in- terrogatories of my subscribers, and oth- ers interested, “Why the delay in pab- lishiog the successive numbers of my history 7” Lavail myself of this mediam to reply. A history of the part performed by “North Carolina iv the war between the States,” was conceived and begun by me some four years ago. Justice and the defence of my comrades demanded that such a history should be attempted, and with this view 1 cameto Washington, where material aud facts could be found to write such defence. My aim has been to preserve to North Carolina, and to the South, atrue re- cord of the valor, the constanly, aud heroic fortitude ef the men who fought on field and floed under the banner of the Southern cross. I bave attempted nothing beyond a simple and carefully accurate statement of facts, with the hope to stimulate fur- ther research, and that by relating victo- ries achieved, and deeds of valor dove, & ’ memoir would be furvished to sume fa- ture and more able seeker after historie truth. As 1 have before remarked, in the pre- face to my book, an unembellisbed uar- rative of North Carolina’s efforts in the great struggle to maintain Constitution- al rights, would be the highest cnlogy that could be pronounced upon tue peo- ple of the State. It is not necessary “‘to weave any fable borrowed from the Scandinavian lore” into the woof of our history to inspire onr youth with admiration of glorivas deeds in frecdom's battles done ; in the true history of the army of Northern Vir- ginia, which laid dewn its arms, ‘‘uot conquered but wearied with victories” we will havea record of deeds of valor, of np- aelfih consecration to daty, and faithful- ness jn death, which will teach oar sons, and our son’s sens how to die for liberty.” ‘Then, may I mot ask my people, my com— rades, you, who are the survivors ef this mighty struggle, to see to it, that it shall be transmitted to them? Like yourselves, when the tocsip sounded, I went forth te do battle, at the bidding ef North Carolina. lt was pot oar fortune to reap the fruits of suc- cessful war—we returned to our homes to find poverty aud desolation.

Railread companies may be to blame in many instances for the neglect of their employes to perform their duty, and jast- ly are they sometimes sued for damages ; but the great amount of incouvience and expenses to which companies are sabject- ed by claimants who sue fer damages on the slightest pretense, is decidedly an- noying. ‘‘Last week,” says the Weldon News, *‘the passenger train from Raleigh killed a colored man by the name of Har- dy Blacknall, between Macon and Vanghn’s. Blacknall was walking to- wards the engine, and the engineer sup- posed he would get off the track till teo near te stop the train. The coroner's july retarned a verdict censuring the en- giveer, and Blacknall’s wife will sue the railroad sompany for $10,000.” If the above is trae, why should publie prejudice be so strong as to censure the engineer for a fevlish act of a man who apparently walked into death’s door of his own accord 1—Sunday Mail. ae Money an Element in Love. How is a young and beaatiful heiress to find out whether a wooer’s leve is for her money or for herself. A daughter of our wealthiest families is a maid of forty on account of this uncertanty in all the courtsbips through which she has passed. She has had a great deal of sentimental vpportunity, too, and is still good looking enough to show that at twenty she must have been highly attractive, aside from her money. She bas had numerous offers of mariage, and undoubtedly she weuld long ago have become a more or less hap- py woman but for a large fortune. But when a very rich woman gets past her sixtieth year, and a penniless young fel- low wishes to marry ber, she has no rea- son to hesitate in ascribing to him a mer- cenary motive. The widow of the late Robert L. Stuart has millious of dollars, and is a lady of refinement and benero- lence. She contributes liberally to all charitable aud religious enterprises, and amoug these is a seminary for the educa- tion of clergymen. Ove of the young divinity students saw her in the course of her benefuetions, and his solemn as- sertion is that he loves her. This state- meut of his condition of heart is set forth with ardor and elaboration, in a letter which she has received from him, and in which he proposes marriage. Bat his argument dues not convince Mrs. Staart that her money has no part in bis caleu- tion, and he is therefore a rejected suitor. — Albany Journal. eee aes SWINDLING THE FARMERS.—There is a party going through Mecklenburg county selling ‘farm rights” for a staff called Southern Fertilizer. In consideration of the sum of two dollars and fifty cents the agent will give any oue the right to make and use the fertilizer on his farm. Mr. B. F. Withers, of Pineville, paid the agent $2.50 and was given the receipt to make the stuff which woald, the agent claimed, make the barren soil. blossom like the rose. Mr. Withers on fixing up the mixture became a little dubious as to its qualitios aud sent a formala of it to Dr. Dabnoy for analysis, with a view to to ascertaining its commercial valae. Dr. Dabney made a careful avalysis and at ovce saw that Mr. Withers had been im- posed upon. After making the avalysis Dr. Dabney wrote to Mr. Withers as fol- lows: ‘I return you the formula as re- quested by you in your letter of the 16th iust, The formula is worthless. It isan arrant humbug and ought not to be al- lowed to be suld.” G. C. Lee is proprietor of the formula and a man named G. Street is selling it in Mecklenburg.--Char. Ob. Fe Indigo Culture. State Chronicle. Mr. James L. Forbes, the iutereating traveller of Roxbury, Mass., a letter from whom to Mr. Patrick the Chronicle had the pleasure to publish Iast week, wrote recently to Dr. H. O. Hyatt, of Kinston, not only about the possible culture of opium, tea and jute, bat also about the possible culture of indigo. In his inter- esting letter he said : “Iudigo is an annual crop, raised from seedand in India we sow duriug the months of April aud May, and the crop is gather- ed iv September aud wanufactured. The process is very simple, the plant is car- ried tu the factory and steeped in large vats for ten or twelre hours. When the liquor is drawn off into another vat then it undergoes a process of churning, by hand and machinery, and when the indi- go is formed it is allowed to settle to the bottom of the vat. The water becoming clear is drawn off, leaving the indigo in the vat, like thick blue mad. This is collected, boiled, presscd, aud when dry js ready for market. “The average yield in India is about 80 to 100 pounds per acre, aud the aver- sale, is from $2 to $2.50 per pound. Very little labor would be required, as I be- lieve cutting aud vinding machinery would gather the crop. Indigo seed sells in Calcutta at 40 cents per pound. ‘“‘Land holders in the Suuthern States should form gn association for the iutre- duction and culture of the above pro- dacts.

Experiment Station. Analyses and Relative Valuations oJ Commercial Fertilizers. 1884.—I. These reports are sent to all the apers of the State at the same time. They will be issued once a week or as rapidly asthe analyses are com- pleted. The relative valuations merely fur- nish a convenient method of summing up the results of aualysis and com— paring them. They are not design- ed to fix the price at which the arti- cle shall be sold. It is impossible to give any one set of figures which shall represent the comoiercial va!uc of those ingredients over our extend- ed territory and throughout the entire year. Since the beginning of 1883 the prices of superphosphates aud “am- moniates” bave declined considerably, as is well known. We shall, there- fore, use the following figures, as reasonably approximate, in calcula- ting these relative valuations during 1884: Available phosphoric acid Ammonia 20 cts per Ib Potash 6 cts per Ib The figares before the names are the numbers of the analyses. 2371.

Odd Methads of Making a Living in New York. There isa bright looking fellow perambulating the streets of New York with a buge sack on his shoul- der whe stylee himself the “omnibus buyer.” By this term, says a cor- respondent, he means that he deals in everything. He buys old hats, old bonnets, vid clethes, old hooks; also canes, umbrellas, old gleves, wigs, and in fact almost every old thing about a house, ‘Lhe vulue of these things is very small and vet when people find that they can get some- thing for them, how rapidly they save them forthe buyer. The latter knows just what can be done with each arifiele. He sorts his stock in his garret and disposes of them ata a nice profit, and if be can clear ten dollars a week he is doing well. Auother class of petty dealers which one finds among the poor are the “time peddlers,” as they are called. They visit poor families and eecond- hand dressos, second-hand shoes and similar articles, taking pay in instal- ments, aud as they afford good bar- gains, they have a good run of busi- ness. These dresses are bought at pawnbrokers’ sales ata mere song, and hence pay a large profit. The “time peddlar” expects to lose occa- sionally, but he cliarges an extra rate, which enables him to meet the loss. There are hundreds of poer women who are clothed decently ia this man- ner ata very small expense. There isa man here who deals in nothing but second-hand harness. He calls on ait livery stables and buys anything that may be offered cheap. He re- irs and cleans these articles, which e sells te the wagon peddlers and others who use second-hand work Another makes a business of starting toy venders on the sidewalk. np one who passes up Broadway wi | notice the number of men selling amusing toys. These fellows are start- ed by aman who makes purchases and then divides them up. If he has a dozen salesmen and makes a quar- ter of adollara day on each he is doing a good business. The small amount of capital required is also a noticeable feature. Many of these street venders have from $1 to $3 in- vested, and yet they centrive to geta living out ef it. Anether curious “lay” is found in the bird fourtune-tellers, who do bet- ter than most of the street traffickers, since they work on curiosity, whick is always a powerful element. The pret- ty little fortune tellers are certainly interesting and you only pay a nickel for their service. ‘The only secret of their penetration is found in the fact that they are kept hungry at least during business bours and a few seeds being placed in each envelope they are always ready to pick one out for their patrens. The seeds are cunningly dropped when the envel- ope is opened aud the birds thus get their reward. If you should follow up the owners of these canaries yeu would find thein living well on the profits, since sometimes they take in five dollars per day. Another busi- ness of small figures but large amounts is the five cent eating housc, where every dish is limited te a nickel, and where hundreds are fed in a decent manner. The five cent lodging bouse ig another institution which New York finds indispensbale. The pro- prietor has a basement or a loft which he hires fur four dollars per week. He will sleep fifty to seventy-five every night, dud will clear $10 per week ev a capital of $25. The bed- ding censists of straw pallets laid on a wooden platform, and the covering is carpets and old bed-clothes from uuction. ‘Tho-e whe cannot pay for such a lodging gojto the station house, which during the cold weather, is al- ways full. ‘This is commonly termed “taking the plank,” since nothing is given but the privilege of fuli length on the floor, ‘The interior of a station heuse affords asad spectacle, which becomes © still worse as eve sees these wrecks of humanity turned out in the morning to take the chances of anoth- er cold day. eee een Milk Diet in Bright's Disease. Since we known not at present any drug that posscses theraputic value to any marked extent in this terrible and fatal disease, and siuce it is daily making sad havoc among human beings, aud priucipally among the class who, by reason of their valua- ble public fabors, are particularly necessary to the welfare of the world, therefore, it becomes a medical ques- tion of paramount interest that we should discover some potent method of combating this very prevalent dis- ease. Some years since Curel first called attention to the treatment of Bright’s disease by the use of a milk diet, and since theu Duncan, as well as many other prominent physicians, has written on this subject. We have ourselves seen some re- markable resuits follow this treat- ment, while Dr. S, Weir Mitchell, of our city, is now quite an enthusiast on this subject. Tunis method of treat- ing a formidable disease has received sufficient distinguished indorsement to recommend it seriously to our no- tice. We would, therefore, ask all physicians who read this article to iry this method of treatment and to furnish as with their experiences, which we will publish. The milk is used thoroughly skimmed and eu- tirely freed from butter. To procure the best results, it has been advised that the patient shall restrict him- selfabsolutely to milk and continue the treatment for a leng time. If it disagrees with the stomach (as it will iu some cases,) Dr, Mitchell advises that the patient he put to bed and the treatment commenced with table- spoouful doses, to which lime water is added, unti] the stomach tolerates the milk, when frum eight to ten pints daily should be taken, and ab- solutely uothiug else. The sanction of such a distinguished physician as Dr. Mitchell forces us to seriously consider the merits of this treatment, and we trust to reeeive the experience of all readers of this journal who may bave cases of Bright’s disease to treat. — Med. and Surg. Reporter. Map and the Sun, Oue hundred years ago the diame- ter of the sun was four miles greater than it is at present. Ten thousand years ago the diameter of the sun was forty miles greater than it is now. The advent of man upon the earth toek place ne doubt a long time ago, but in the history of the earth it is a comparatively recent phenomenon. Yet it seems certain that when man first trod our planet the diameter of the sun must bave been many hun- dreds, perhaps thousands of miles greater than at present. We must not, however, overestimate the siguif- icanee, of this statement. eter of the sun is at present 860,000 miles, so that a diminution of 10,000 miles weuld be a little more than a hundreth part of its diameter. If the diameter of the sun were to shrink to- morrow to the extent of 10,000 miles the change would not be appreciable The diam-|. hough even a much smaller change would not elude delicate astronomical measure-| ment. The world on which the prim-| itive man trod was certainly ilimina- ted by a larger suo than that which now shines upon us, It does not nec-| essarily follow that the climate must have been hotter then than now.. The question of warmth depends upon other matters as well as sunbeams, so that we must be cautious in any in-|. ferences drawn in this way, nor are sach inferences. needed for present purposes,— Logman’s.

A Governor’s Testimony. Simmons Liver Regulator has been in use in my family for some time, and I am satisfied it is a val addition to tne medical science. J. Gitt SHorteR, Governor of Ala. Hon. Alexander H. ee of Ga., says: Have derived some benefit from the use of Simmons Liver Regulator, and wish to give it a further trial. “The only Thing that never fails to Relieve.”—I have used many remedies fgr Dys- ia, Liver Affection and Debility, but mever ave found anything to benefit me to the extent Simmons Liver Regulator has. I sent from Min- mesota to Georgia for it, and would send further for such a medicine, and would advise all who are sim- ilarly affected to give it a trial as it seems the only thing that never fails to relieve. P. M. Janney, Minneapolis, Minn, Dr. T. W. Mason says: From actual ex- perience in the use of Simmons Liver Regulator in my practice I have been and am satisfied to use and prescribe it as a purgative medicine.

The object of the bill isto prevent the exportation of diseased cattle, and to previde wmeavs for the suppression and extirpation of pleuro—pneumonia and oth- er coptagious diseases among domestic | animals. It isa bill in the especial in~ terest of cattle raisers, which as being a@ more genera! pursuit of the people, and of greater magnitude financially than even the iron interest of the country, it ie claimed is more worthy ef Congress- jonal protection than that.

We have never kaown orheard of a Liberal who was not seeking some oftice, and we take it that the Republican party has enough office-seekers ef it own. Joe Caldwell of the Statesville Land- mark says this is uvtre so far as it may concern a number of honest citizens of Iredell county, who fora while accepted the ‘Liberal party.” They thoaght they were doiug a patriotic thing in bitching on to the “liberals ;” they were not after office at all—were not even thinking about it. So say we in regard to a num- ber in Rowan county. They were not office-scekers, but quiet people honestly desiring to vote right. But they were “tucked inand likewise deceived” by the loud ranting of a few noisy “liberals,” fora little while. But they soon found oat they had got them into the wrong company: that the “liberal” leaders were tle most selfish office-seekers in the State, and did not care a cent for prinei- ple, but were only anxious to cover their own ignominous desertion from the ranks of an honest democracy, and carry the people with them. —— ib oie Ga Coddle Creek church, Cabarrus county, was destroyed by fire on Sunday after- noon, Feb. 24th, after the congregation worshipping there had gone home.

Mr. Editor: Ihave observed in your Paper complaints of excessive taxes, and the question propounded, what becomes of this mouey thus collected ? I will there fore attempt to show, for what purposes the taxes are collected >; What disposition is made of them; by whom expendei ; and where the respousibility for their ex. peuditare attaches. The impression seems to Prevail that the County Commissioners are respensi- ble for the levying, and for the expendi- tare of ull the taxes collected. This isa great mistake, and does them very great Injustice. While the law compels thein to levy, and holds them responsible for the collection of al! the taxes, only about one fourth of the total sum collected is subject to their control, Over the ex- penditure of the remaining three-foprths they can exercise no control whatever. This sum is entirely and exclusively at the disposal of other parties, To hold them, therefore accountable for the dis- posal of the these ‘hree-fourths is not only unreasonable but unjust also, The toxes are levied aud collected for three purposes; For State, for 8ehool, and for county purposes. This levy is nade the first Monday iv Jane of each, year, wnd ja based upon the vajuatioa of prop- erty aud credits then existing, The ‘ey, for State purposes was fixed by the last Lightatare at 25 cents on the $100 worth of all property aud credits, and when col- lected by the sheriff is paid directly to the State Treasurer. This levy in the year 1883 amounts te $10,519, The levy for sehoel purposes, fixed by law, is 124 cents on the $100 of property and credits, and $1.12} on the poll, mak- ing about $7,350. The Commissioners appropriated fer school purposes $1.50 per head for each child between the ages of 6 and 21 years —a larger appropriation than ia made by any other county in the State. The tetal number of children, between thesé ages, both white and colored, is 6,855. This appropriation therefore amounts to $10,- 233, to which mast be added the sheriff’s commissious of 5 per cent. for collecting, making a total appropriation of abeut $10,800 in the year 1883. The levy fixed by law being insufficient to provide this sum of $10,800, the commissioners on the lst Monday iu June, 1883, levied an ad- ditional tax of 7} cts on the $100 of all property and credits, making the total tax 20 cents on $100. ‘This sum of $10,- 200 is expended by the school com mittee- men, with the approval of the County Saperintendent. The Commissioners ex- ercise no control whatever over it except to provide it, aud to apportion it on the Ist of January of each year, to the school districts. It will therefore be seen that they are net properly chargeable, or ac- countable, for the expenditure of the State and school taxes, aggregating $21,- 300. Having thus shown the amount and disposition ef the State and schol taxes, and to whom the responsibility fur their expenditure attaches, I now come to the consideration of those taxes levied for county purposes, —the support of the poor, the courts and other expences incidental to county goverpmeut, for which the county commissjonera are responsible, ex- cept the sum expended iu the mainten- ance of the Superior and Inferior Courts of law. The levy for this purpose in the year 1883, is 20 cents on the $100 of prop- erty and credits, and 624 cenis,on the poll, making a total tax of about $10,039. The disposition of this fund by the coun- ty commissioners is shown by the second published anunal statement of its secre— tary, wherein every item of expenditure by the Board is given as required by law. By reference to this statement, it will be seen that the expenses for 1883 were $6,519.31. This is the whole amount expended by the Board, and for Which it is properly chargeable and ac- countable, together with any surplus in hands of the Treasurer. Added to $6,- 519.31 the cost of courts, $2,362.66, for the year 1883, and it will give the total cust of the coanty government that year, $8,981,97. It is apparent therefore that the county com.uissiovers control aud expend buta small- proportion of the taxes collected--less than one-fourth. It is alsu evident from the above statements that the school committeemen avd the County Superivtendent expend a sum 70 per cent. larger thaw is exended by the county commissioners, and nearly 40 per cent. greater than is expended for the Whole county government by both the county commissioners aud the courts; and yet, your correspondent charges this whole expenditure tu the account of the county commissioners. One of your correspondents alleges al- so that his taxes have been increased ove-third. Is this true? No doubt be thinks so, without reference to Lis tax receipts for the years 1873, 1879, 1830, 188l and 1882. Let us see if his state— ment is true, by acomparison of the taxes collected and the expenses in those years, with the taxes collected and the expenses in the year 1883, and also the per cent. on the $100 of property and credits, as ex- hibited iu the subjoived table. ‘This ta- ble sets forth, as accurately as eould be ascertained, the taxes collected and ap- propriated for State, school aad county Purposes, and the county expenses tor each year, from 1878 to 1883, both in- cluded : | » SOrnmoarre eo < oweSSS a = PtH reon e s c-t="«=' 0) & 2 O $ Me Se. = a Sosccoomw . ny = Tt x aaa 60 CU) a Ned a5 on . -_ -_ a 4 0018 ere ZtSo Ze A fl = wo OTA meumcnice aaa Se 5 (882883 oo 2 a ex PAH 2 IZ ~ NMRNROAYSHE Qe ie v DDH noS ~~ mie 8 Mee AO e Oo |r SS 7A SOWOSO. iveacd — jer is cm 7 ——— 2 00 PP pe po 9 pm = : i$ DW DONNS me UO "po Lo = aR 4 a < ESeSes Q = v) dpe 4A] Ses oes = ae i) er) Y) Fe | yy BSSLS ¢ * = ea v SS82E8 He lt & BéSSES =n 2 3 tv tere sO 5 ca = © I'd Oo = iS capiaan —_ o¢ ny & |i5 ~ BS mf a) "s ra) es * 33 <a 24 & se & 5 = = So | = “ <r ee — een oO} le “4 ~ >on oo j< 5 SEZRSS Z a A Mme cow ; o E 3 E ‘Bo ia ¥ ‘8Bgg3e = ee oD pe = < 8 Crease ~~) « re < a — _ ! .

It will be obvieus alse, that the expenses iv 1883 were rery considerably less than if either ofthe preceding years, and 1,908.10 less than in 1882. It will also appenr, by an inspection of the table, that the commissioners levied taxes in 1882 for expeuses in 1883, amouating to $8,164.56, while the levy for the four preceding years averaged $11,001.23, and while their own expenses in 1882 were $10,790.07, aud the expenses for the four preceding years average $10,440.44. The expense account in 1882 exceeda the tax- ation by $2.625.51. The taxes levied iu one year are intended to meet the expen- ses of the succeeding sear. ‘Lhe $3,164.56 levied iv 1882 was intended for 1883 and to meet an indebteduess, as an average of the four preceeding years would indicate, of $10,440.44, but, as the facts show ap actual debt in 1882 of $10,790.07. Li the expenses of 1883 had been the same us iv 1382 there would have been a defi- cieucy of $2,625.51, but as the expenses in 1883 were $1,908,10 lesa than in 1882, the real deficiency waa ouly $717.41, less the sum of $511.54 en band, as wil} here- after wore fully appear, makivg only $205.87. A farther examination of the ‘able will show also chat $10,028 were 'ppropriated in 882 fer schools, while ‘he taxes collected amounted to ouly 77,350.75, leaving a defieierey in the schovl fund of $3,277.25. Ta making the taxations less thau the the commissioners, no doubt, d to exhaust —_ ovens funds on —, — was rfee mate, prov ’ deficiencies at created did not exceed the amonat of the surplus. To meet these deficiencies there was, in the hands of the Treasurer on the 3ist October, 1882, as verified by the finance committee, and recorded by them on that day, the sam of $3,788.79. This sam weald be increas- ed by the receipts of November and di- mivished by the expenditures of that mouth, bat as the balatcee in the two ac- counts does nut appear on the Buth Nev. I will take for a comparison the accounts as they stood on the 3iat October, 1882, and the 3ist October,1883. This com- parison will not be unfair as the ex- penditures in October exceeded the re- eeipts :— Cash in Treasurer's hands Oct. 31, 1882, $3,738 79 Vo indebtedness to Sch’l fund 3,277 25 Balance on haud $511 54 Cash ip ‘Treasure:’s hands Oct. 31, '33, as verified and stated by fiuance comm’tee. $1,86] 53 To indebtedness to taxes re. ceived iu Oct. for 1884, 1,675 00 Balance on hand, $186 53 It will be evident from the table and the aboye figures that, although there was collected for 1882 the sum of $10,- 211.55, and for 1883 the sum of $8,364.56, the former sum exceeding the latter by $2,046.99, yet the excess in the balauce on hand was only $325.01. But it bas been asserted that there was a sarplus in the school fund, in addition tw the surplus of $3,788.79 to the credit of the county fund. If this assertion is true, then there was no deficiency, perhaps, iu the school fund, and consequently the necessity of transferring $3277.25 from the county fund to the school fand did not exist! Was it necessary? The facts and figures speak for themselves. The law requires the whole amourt of taxes collected for the school fund te be apportioned to the scheg! districts, ov the Ist of January of every year, and after this apportionment is made, it remains te the credit of the different schoe! dis- triets, in proportion the uumber of school children in each district. The Treasurer cannot pay it out ou any account, or for any district, except upon the certificate of the school committeemen of that dis~ trict, when countersigued by the County Superintendent. The county commis— sioners neither have, vor can they have, auy contrel over it. The ceunty com- missioners on the lst of January, 1882, appertieved the school fund. The sain collected, as the table exhibits, was $7,- 350.75, but the sum apportioned was $10,628.00. Iu other words they gave to each child in the county of schoel age $1.50, and they collected for each chi d only 80 cents. It is therefore evident that on the 3ist of Oct. 1882 there was not, neither coald there have been, any sur- plus to the credit of the school fund, an- leas H came from other seurces unknown, and after the tirst of January. There were funds in the bands of the ‘Treasurer belonging to certain school districts, but these tunds had already been credited to those districts, and belonged entirely and exclusively to them. ‘The Treasarer could vot transfer these fuuds to avy other accouut without a sacrifice of his official boud, and making himself liable tvindictment for malappropriation. The commissioners, therefore, paid this §3,- 277.25 out of the county funds. But, per- haps, it will make the matter more iutel- ligible and satisfactory to show the amount wf money in the handa of the lreasurer to the credit of the school dis- tricts on the 31st of Oct., 1882, and 3ist ‘of Oct., 1833: Oct. 31, '82, cash on hands to credit school districts Oct. 31, 53, cash on hands to credit school districts 2,570.87 It will thus be seen that there was a larger bulauce om 31st of Oct. 1883, te the credit of the school districts than on the 3let of Oct. 1882. This balance, instead of being a source of gratification aud con- gratulation, indicates a cufpable remiss- ness Ov the part of the commissioners, or those in charge of this fund, and the children of the county are the sufferers. The whole sum should be expended each year for their education ; and, the larger the expenditure, if intelligently aud ju- diciously applied, the greater tle benetits resulting thereform. If the question was asked, whether the taxes were not higher this year than last, [should reply that they were, for the following good and sufficient reasons : The taxes levied in 1882 for 1883 were insufficient, as I have already shown, to meet the appropriations for that year,and the deticincy thus created exhausted the surplus funds on band. If, therefore, the same levy had been made in 1883 fur 1884, the school fuod would have been inade- quate, aud there was ne surplus from which this insufficiency could be drawn, aud bence the school children could not have had apportiened to them $1.50 each. The comwmissioners, therefore, the first Monday in June, 1883, when the law re- quires the taxes to be Inid, increased the levy for schools, se as te ensure to each school child its $1.50. This increase was based upon the vulaation of all the prop- erty and credits in the county, amount- ing at that date to $3,216,142. By an act of the Legislature the commiasiouers were required to have a re-assessment made in June and July following, of all the prop- erty and credits of the eounty, This as-"| sessment when completed the let of Aa- guat showed a valuation of property and credits amounting te $3,861 ,878—an in- crease over the former assessment of $645,736. This was an unexpected and & moet gratifying result, as it places Rowan among the most progressive eoun- ties of the State. As the property and credits bad increased, so also would the taxes, based upon this property and these credits, necessarily increase. It was not possible for the commissioners, when they assembled on the Ist Monday ip June to levy the taxes for the ensuing year, tohare known what the resolt of that assessment would be. Whatever surplus may arise from this increase and an economical administration can be ap- plied to diminishing the taxation in 1884. Scorcu Inisn. <0 eee THE VERY BEST. FLOUR! FLOUR!

Five weeks ago to-day I commenced using Ken- dall's Spavin Cure and after ustng it three weeks the lameness entirely disappeared. It has been worth $80.00 to me. H. H. Hove.

J. F. Stancill, on last Friday night, at the house of Mitch- ell Lyerly, col’d, a tenant of the Major's. The Major was arrested and broaght to this city Monday when a preliminary trial of his case was had before Justices W. L. Keistler and B. C. Arey, at which 8 few points not mentioned in our corres- pondent’s repert was bronght out. It appears that Maj. Stancill was called up- ov by his tenant Mitchel Lyerly to help bim protect his premises as well as the lives of his family against the felonious god murderous assaults of a dranken des- perado, which Milas Lyerly was clearly proven to be. The Major, whois wide- ly known asa peaceable and quiet citi- zen showed his usual discretion by telling his tenant to go after Mr. Joseph Hall, a pear neighbor aad get him to come and go along with them; for, knowing the desperate character of Milas Lyarly, he thought it more than probable'that force would be required to capture or quiet the ferocious distarber. When Mr. Hall came he brought with him his shot gun, for he, too, seemed to know the character of the man they had to deal with. The Major then got his gun, and en the Way to Mitebell’s reniarked to Mr. Hall, “Joe, I hate to do this,” (meaning the taking of arms with them), “but if we have to shoot Milas, be sare to shoot low—in the legs, so as to disable bat not kill him, for I dou't want to kill anyone.” After the shooting, Dr. Irwin was sent for by Mr. Hall to examine aud dress the wounds of Cowan, the celured man he had acciden- tally shot. After the doctor got through attending Cowan, Maj. Stancil! requested bim to examine and see if Milas Lyerly was seriously hurt; but they were pre- vented from making a close examination by the wounded man himself, who still showing vivleuce, fought them away by kicking aud striking at them whenever they were in reach. Consequently they both coneluded he was not serieu sly hurt. But, as was afterwards discovered, a shot had severed an artery in his leg from which he bled to death, The public roads ai~ improving under the severe winds of the past week, bat it commenced raining yesterday morning and the clouds are still heavy and threat- ening. —_——_o—— .-— Anew copartuership in the Tobacco Warehouse business has recently been formed under the name of Beall, Bost & Foard, consisting of the popular busizess men, Thos.

Contribations of cloth- ing for beds apd person, would no doubt be very acceptable to those who lost everything of this kind, as was the case generally with those whose houses were torn to pieces and everything in them blown away. _—_—_—_————— MINING. T.K. BRUNER, MANAGER. The following resume of the mining in- dustry for the south-eastern section of the United States from the pen of Prof. Geo. B. Hanna, of the Charlotte mint, will be found of very great interest to all classes, but more especially so to those interested in mining, and the pro- dacts of Southern mines. My Dear Mr. Bruner : A few notes on the minieg of the south-eastern section of the United States may be of some interest to your readers. Of Virginial can say very little, as vene ef the work there has come uuder my personal notice. In Alabama the aurifereus formations of the Blue Ridge and Alleghanies seem to disappear some 50 miles west of the Georgia line. The conditions of success- ful mining here do not seem to be so favorable as elsewhere, or at least have not attracted wuch notice. About Dades- villein Tallapoosa county some nilling is done, aud the deposits are extensive enough to induce investors to enlarge mining work. Asa whole, however, gold mining receives little attention, aud the work is very desultory. My acquaintance with the State is too cursory to admit of a close deseription. In Georgia, en the contrary, all is life and activity iv miving matters, though 1883 saw n slight retrograde wovement by reason of the severe drougt cutting off the indispensable requisite of Georgia work—water; especially did the mines de- pendent on the many ditchés jn north cen- tral Georgia, suffer the delivery being ouly ubeat one-half of the ordinary amount. It seems to me, judging from the slight.inerease ia the number of stamps in 1883 as compared with 1882, that there is likely to bein the near future a more serious effort to make the best of the present epportunities, rather than to enlarge the area of work by opening new mines, although some new mines are and may be expected to be opened each season. I will add in passing that in the last 10 years there hays been fewir a‘lures ‘n Ga., than in any mining section of the country. It isa little hazardous, how- ever, to make any predietion res vecting the work jn this state for it has chee a buoyancy lifting it over every obstacle, and a permanency which shows that it is a tixed institution. The large resources, and the readily calculable elements of the nivivg prob- lem, which for the most part lie en the surface, have attracted eapital. The mining expert is at a discount here ; the mining engineer and geologist strictly speaking have received their dismissal frow this section, bat the mechavical aud hydraulic evgiveers tind it a ehosen ground for their best and most brilliant work, and well have they improved it, Here there is no water te eoutend with by costly machinery, for it is welcomed as an ally, and its possession quite often is a matter of revenue; nor is there often need of underground work to waste capital or baffle enterprise in blind and fruitless work; and best of all rarely everare there sulphurets to hinder the miving of the golden store, or to offer, as eften in the Carvlinas, a shield and ex— cuse for incompetency. There are several belts extending diag- onally through Georgia from northeast to southwest, and together covering fally one-third of the State. “If a live be drawn from Angusta to Columbys it will indicate the sonthern limit of the guriferons area of the state.” The eptire territory to the north and weat of thisline istor the most part guild producing except a small pateh of the coal formation in the extreme porth- west corner. Of these belts three (3) are fairly well defined, but only one is largely worked ; commenucing with Rabun county in the north-east, and extending through W hite, Lumpkin, Dawson, Forsyth, Cherokee and other counties, and into Cleburne county, Alabama, in which are the noted Arbachoochee, and Pinetuchee mives, so prolific in the flash days of gold mining. Among the now slightly worked mines in fhe south-west exteusion of this belt are the Bonner and Villa Rica in Caroll ceanty, the Payne near Sekworth ; the Draketown miuves in Paulding, the Barnt Hickory, the Alatoona the Sixes, and the Strickland in Cherekee. At the Franklin in the north-east cor- ner of Cherokee is the first sigu, so far as Tam aware, of anything like systematic work. I can barely allude to the curious his- tory of this lot; many of your readers are aware that the “Indian couniry ac- quired from the Cherokees and other tribes was divided up into square lots, and distributed by lottery to the citizens of the entire State; there were several of these distribations as the State gradually extinguised the Indian titles, the most important being in 1831. Amoug the ly mangled, dence reward the citizens of Salisbary © drawers wad Mis, Frauklin, alwidow lady adergrou at this rs refractory, but is od successfally, and the body is large. It is situated on the banks of the Stowah, and the draining, hoisting, and milling is mostly done by the available power of the river at this peint, which is amply la to work ser such mines. Col. 8. Moore is the superintendent. One and one-half miles north-east is the Charles mines, which is finely open- ed, and operated by the abundant power of the same river. The stretch of country intervening be- tweeo Forsyth county and the vicinit of Dawesouyille has been little prospec for veins though they are kuown to exist, Near Dawsonville are the mines of the Cinciunati Consolidated Com ny, five (5) in number, They were idle most of the year, for what reason! ceuld not learn. The Kiomori in the same neighborhood is carried on bya Cinciuvati Company. The new ditch of thie Co. was com pleted last year, and is capable of delivering 600 iuehes of water under 275 feet of pres- sure. The tract embraces several han- dred acres, and is being opeved iu a sys- tematic manner. The guiches, several of which are very levgand large, are traversed by the veins, (of which seven (7) are known) end will ultimately be work- ed eut, and the veins thereby be exposed for treatment by the approved Georgia method. The immediate work will be the “cleaning up” of the river bottom; the Stowah traverses the lots fer a long dis- tance; by a skillful device and at a tri- fling cest the Superintendent, Col. Latbam Anderson, an experienced hydraulic en- gineer, has diverted the river from its old chanuel for a distance of several hundred yards, aud will work up the accumulated material of its bettom, inte which most of these guiches bave for ages poured their golden contents. The mest approved California machinery for such work has beer introdaced. Between Dawsenyville and Auroria iv Lampkin county, on the same belt, there is little dove, and about Auroria the work has been in a depressed condition; among the mivor enterprises about this village are the Danae, Auraria, Cleveland, High- town, Bell and Little Daisy, the latter a placer mine. The Chicagoand Georgia was busy pounding away with its remodeled will of 20 stamps, and with every appearance of prosperity. . The Chesttee was comparatively idle, as the ditch facilities were entirely in- adequate to furtish the requisite water for piping; a recent contract with the large Hand Ditch will prebably obviate this difficulty, and afford a full supply for its magnificent and unequaled 40 stamp mill. The Barlow mine showed no change in its work, for it has acquired its regimen, and holds to it; this with the Ralston Branch near by tothe sonth-west, and practically one with it, will contiuue its good woik with the two (2) mills, of 40 aud of 20 stamps. The Pigeou Roost mine hard by the Barlow mill has even richer material, bat has never been preperly or adequately opened, and so is likely to be hindered in its returns. The lay of the Consolidated Georgia is another fine example of a splendid piece of engineering aid of finaneial manage. ment. Commeucivg 1883 with twenty stamps and auseof the water from the Hand Diteb, it now has its own ditch from the upper part of Cane Creek, and a mill of sixty (60) stamps, and its cut in a better shape than ever. ‘This mine in connec- tion with the Bart, (whieh is on the Findley Lead, and is worked with twenty (20) stamps), forms the company above alluded to; it declared seven (7) divi- deuds in 1883, aggreghting $26,000, aud ships more gold than avy mine on the Appalachian range. The Calhoun was not able te secare enough ore to keep its 40 stamp mill at work constantly. In the last part of 1883 the Fish Trap had entered on # season ef unusual pros perity. The Findley was absolutely idle. The Singleton with its tweuty-five (25) stamps did ita usual work, aud was on the eve of making arrangements which promise i¢ semething better. The Garnet was a new enterprise, gom- mencing {ts work in September, and at the close of the year had every prospect of suceess. Lompkin county gave nearly two- thirds of the entire product of the State. Iu White county, where the number of individnal small operators—“gougers”— is large, the drought affected the returus seriously. ; In the south-west part of this county both the Blake and the Land company washed mestly on placer ground, byt vot vigorously, as there was litigation re- spectivog water rights, and su uently the aule of gogemon property for division withdrew seme of the best mining groand from use. Near Nacoechee, where mining is by far the most actively prosecuted, the larger operators were unfourtavately most- ly idle, a cireumstance owing to the operations of an Anglo-American Syndi- cate aimiug at a consolidation of all the more valuable tracts about Nacoochee. The final arrangements were nearly con- sumated ia December. Something more than 7000 acres of the choicest mineral lands between Dakes Creek, and the Chat- tahoochee river will then be withdrawn from the fermer eperators. The owners of these tracts in momeatary expectation of the successful termination of the ne~ gotiations suspended work. The usual commingling of fact and faucy were exhibited in their prospectus and extravagant statements of the value of ore were made, thoagh y ag rey. truth as respects quantity, for the sapply such as it ia, is practically unlimited. For the t the properties are likely to be withdrawn from active work, for no extensive artan ts for imme- diate development of such supplies is possible. . In Rabae county practically nothing was done, for the Smith mine, the ouly well-opened and well — concern, was tied up by legal troubles, vew hap- pily ended. It is likely to be fally em- ployed for the future,and its large resoar- ces will be Beceneny tested. The production the State in 1883 approximated $200,000. So far aa known the number of stamps & movement for the purpose ot Gilling up eur waste places, and for our many valuable, bat now idle resources. Her moneyed citizens and property holders says they will not subscribe for stock uuless the county is represented by a special ex- hibit. The County Cemmissioners do net propose to touch the matter ip apy way unless the citizens first take hold and show a disposition to beceme inter- | fair ested. To be plain, there is among those who are able by influence er money, no disposition to take hold of the matter. Whether this indifference arises from a @ want of appreciation and sympathy for this new and aggressive move on the part of the people of the State, or from a fear of n influences, political or otherwise, is unknown to the writer. This fact remains; the Exposition is as- sured, and in all that isto be shown in the grand display of resources, Rowan will present nothing. The inference de- ducled from this facet will naturally be that Rowan bas nothing te show. Cer- tainly sach a jadgment would be unjust to our numerous deposits of oros, rich’ iu geld and copper; to the magnificent range of granite and syenite traversing the county, as fine and accessible for building purposes as any in the State ; te the forests, and te the products of the farm—corn, wheat, rye, oats, broom corn, serghum cane, cotton and golden tobacco, besides her grasses for hay, &c. By keep- ing aloof, Rowan virtually says: no at- tractions exists, no desire for settlers, no openings in mining, quarrying, wood- working, or in any branch of farming. Is this true? Is Rowan as prosperous as her people desire to see her? Are eur people, citizeus.of acounty which has beeu accustomed to lead in public mat- ters in the past; acounty which has produced men who have adorned society and led in all ciwl and aggressive move- ments for the prosperity of her people, and who in the battles’ deadly din have fought and fallen in the foremost rank ; are they asa people ready to falter and fall by the way now? Will they allow gelden opportanities to pass ubimprov- ed ? It seems so. The Mining DepartMeENT of the Watcuman has labored hard aud long for the goud of the county—more par- ticularly for the development of her miu- eral deposits. Whatever of good has been accomplished by this means has been free to the county—not one cent of pa tronage has ever been contributed to aid this work. Rowan was represented at Atlanta three years ago. The State had its agent here, whe spent several days in making a col- lection. In addition, the citizens of Salisbury contributed some $25 for the purpose of making a’ special feature of this counties mineral resources. This sum was supplement by nearly twice that amount from the writer's purse (who was entrusted with getting up the ex- hibit) iu order to make it as complete as possible, and to have it set ap pertectly. The county was also represented at Bos- tou last year, through the efforts of the State Department of Agriculture. These facts are mentioued to show how little the ‘county has doue for itself. It has done nothing at all. What has been done has been eutirely free of expense—unless her proportion of the money spent at: Boston is taken into the count, but this is too little to mention. With these facts staring our people in the face, it weuld hardly seem reasonable for them to let such an opportunity pass. Shoyld there be any movement on the part of individuals to make an exhibit from this county, and it is hoped that such will be the case, the WatcuMman may be relied upon to do all io its power w further the seheme, either through its columns, or by personal effort. eee cere entee seeeeneeeian For the Watchman. BLackMer, STEEL Townsuip, March 2, 1884. Mr. Epitor: A very sad affair happen- ed on the plantation ef Maj. Jesse F. Staugitl, near this place, on Friday night the 29th alt., which resulted in the death of 8 negro mau named Milas Lylerly and the accideatal wounding of another negro man aan the eee eee named, the negro known as Mile Lyer went to the house of Mitchell Lyerly, one of Maj. Stansill’s tepants, iv a drunk- eu rage, burst down his @oor with an axe, and swore he would kill Mitchell and his family and forced them to flee for their lives. Mitchell ran over to Maj. Stan- sill’s aud Joseph Hall’s and begged them to go home with him and protect him his family from the dranken desperado.! They toek with them their double barrol guns and wout quickly. On arriving at the house they found that Milas had, after branting = the = and tear- ing a ings in a genera Way, gone Gown’ to Chal Cewan’s, another sceaat's house, and was carsing aud threatening in a terrific manner. Maj. S. sent Mitch- ell for a warrant und promised that he and Hall would remain and protect his wife, who was nearly ready te be confin- ed, and his child from violence. A short time after Mitchell left the furious uegro Milas left Cowan's aud come towards the house of Mitcbell, where Stansil! and Hall were on guard. Chal Cowan was tryiug to keep him back, but finding that he could nut, ran ahead to get Mitehell’s wife and child out of the way, provided they were in the honse, uot knowing that Stansill and Hall were there. It was dark and Stansill aud Hall mistook him for the desperado and called to him to stop. Not heeding the chullevge he came ov and Hall threw - bis guy and fired, aud the charge took effect in Cowan's breast, inflicting a seious wouud, two of the shot eutering his side, Hall, finding that Chal was shot, threw down his guu joining the lands of £3 7 ; d i F s ai E e not is w ound _ 800n died. Coroner Atwell comand jary and held an inquest over the dead. To-day the verdict was, “Justifiable Homicide, that is the came to his death by a gun shot-wound by J. F.

C. R. R., near Third Creek Bridge. An- other victim of the accursed whisky deus that our county authorizes to deal ont death and destruetion among our country people. These country whisky shops are generally locate: ic some log hut in the fall after or about the time the crops are being gathered. A barrel of mean whis- ky and an old goods box to hold shelled corn, constitutes av outtit, and they sell any quautity they can to'any person they can. They gather in the little corn the negroes have to live on, and in many cases they are forced tu’ steal or suffer afterwatds. Strife is engeudered by This is not all the inj urs done by them. Our boys are being corrupted by them. We cannot have a social party for our childrea without some one being sent to those neighboring deus fur whisky, and in many cases our young men beceme drunken in the presence of young ladies, and eur social gatherings instead of be. ing @ blessing to our youth, are plaees where some of them ge to drink aud ca- rouse. If these dens were not licensed among us our boys would not go to the towns for it, and the negroes would pvt sell aJl of his living and be torced to steal or saffer. One country liquor shop will do more injury than all the bar reums in Salisbury. Is there no remedy for this evil among us? If our county will continue to license them will it not be better for us to act in self-defense, apply the torch and burn them ent rather than have the ce of our community destroyed, our boys corrupted and secu- rity ef life and property endangered ?

Puil parucuiare, by| Nashville, Tenn., is cemposed as R llendrix, DD., of ot ee Methodist Centennial. How the M. BE. Church, South, Proposes to Celebrate the Great Event. This year, 1884, a great and nota- ble one in the annals of America Methodism. It will witness the cele bration of the one hundreth anniver- sary of the Methodist Ejfseopal Church on this continent, and is cer- tain toprove a year of unusual activity and profeand interest throughout the wide extended borders of that power- ful denomination of Christians, The grand historic facts relating to the beneficent character and wonderful achievement of Christianity through the organized plans and the doctrines of Methesism during its pathway during this century of its existence in America aretruly phenemesxal, as acknowledged by the world’s leadiog wninds, and is one of the grandest problems of the ages. With more communicants than any other reli- gious body in America, it is a matter of interest to briefly review some of the facts of general interest connected with the history of the Methodist Beginning in obscurity aud feebleness, it has achieved for itself ‘everywhere a most wonderful success. This great religious mevement has immediately or remotely, so given au impulse to Christian feeling and pro- fession on all sides, that it has come to present itself as the starting point of eur modern religious history. ty| In 1784, the year when the Metho- dist Churely was organized in Baiti- more, when Guke and Asbury were acknowledged und set apart as Super. iniendents, or Bishops, there were only 14,988 members, 83 preachers, 64 church buildings, no missionaries, and vo institution of Jearniug within the bounds of the denomination. But from that time until the present the growth of Methedisin has been al- most incalculable. ‘This result was achieved by men who can well be de- nominated heroes in the lJoftiest sense of the word, Accepting the motto of John Wesley their Church’s founder, “The World is my Parish,” these men of God traversed every State jand Territory of our great country, | preaching the gospel with power and jiu demonstration of the Spirit— \building up the Charch, Their en- tire singleness of purpose in spread- | ing the gospel has been their promi- nent characteristic, and to-day A meri- }can Methodism numbers within her | various branches 3,993,724 members; | 35,839 traveling preachers, and 34-, 1714 local preachers ; 32,000 church edifices valued at $100,000,0C0 ; 258 institutions of learning, embracing pales cant es, cuileges, seminaries and j high sebouls; in 1882 had 433 mis- \sionaries inforeign fields eent from Awerica, besides 1,976 native help fers; aud during that year centribu- ted for the cause of foreign missions the sum of $551,447.44. A The M. FE. Chareh, South, has pre- |pared to join in the celebration of j“‘the Centenniel Anniversary of the Ore aule tes of the Methodist Epis- | copal Church in) America,” which Iwill uccur in Baltimore on Dec. 27, land proposes to commemorate the great event throughout its entire I bounds with suitavle services and by | raising funds for educational pur- | poses, church extension and mi-sions }—three noble objects to which the liberality of the Church will certain- ly respond. ‘Two millions of dollaus jis the amount proposed to be raised pe these objects, and that this pur- pose can be accomplished there should be no doubt; it will certainly not ex- haust the treasury of this strong Church with its nearly nine hundred thousands members. | It may be interesting to our read- leis to recount what American Meth- | ism has hitherto accomplished on her | Centenary occasions. We first revert the centennial of 1836. As the | to \tirst Methedist Society was formed in | i . Ready made work always on hand —Repaltring } London o the month of November, ee. so 1839 became properly the lone hundreth year of Methodism. It | was accordingly cerebrated in Eurepe jand Awerica. During that Centeo- jary year, with a membership of 749., | 216 inembers, including colored mem- gibers and Indians, the Methodist Church in America raised $600,000 jor missions, educational purposes jund forthe support of the worn out | preachers, and the widows, children, land orphans of the preachers. The Wesleyan Methodists of Great Britain raised overone million dollars for similar objects. The next’ Methodist Centennial leyent was in 1866. It was in com- memoration of the first Methodist preaching services held iu this coun- try io 1766, and was celebrated by the Methodist Episcopal Church in 1866. Education and church exten- sion were the great objects of their benevolence, and $2,000,000 was sug- gested asthe amount to be raised. The result was a magnificent one the thank offcrings amounting to $8,709., 498.39, or more than four times the amewunt propused at the outset, The successful celebration of these two former Centenary events should Salisbury, N.C. certainly encourage our Southero a ___s| Methodist friends to the »plish- GOLD: working class.

The western collection district is what we have been in the habit of thinking of as “imperium ia imperio.” ‘Lie Governor of the State of North Carolina can appeint a few railroad directors, a few directors of the dif- ferent charitable institutions and of the penitentiary. These officers serve without pay. He appoints to fill | Vacancies in the judiciary;— other lihan this, we de not recall any patron- age couneeted with the executive luttice te which compensation is an- lnexed, Ihe little patronage at the |disposal of the Governor of North 'Carolina is merely honerery, How is it with the collector vi the western district? If our figures are correct, the entire patronage connected with the several collectors’ districts in this | State awouals to 616 clerks, store- | keepers, yaugers, etc. This does not | incluce the deputy marshals, Leaving fout the deputy marsfAls, whose name lis legion im the western district, we bave a patronage amounting to $374-, VOU belongirg to the revenue collec- tors. These are the figures which have | been furnished usgrom Washingten, juot by the departaygat it is true, but ‘coming from a reliable source, ‘Phey lsustuin the estimate we made last | year, tha@ tie western district alone dispensed patronage amountirg to |$275,0U0. The collector of tie west- fern district has the appointment of |between three and four hundred officers. When we compare the pow- er of the Governor of North Carolina with that uf a collector of internal revenue, in this respect, we sce that the former is utterly insignificant, wiile tuat of the latter is a tremen- ue, in this respect, wesee that the | former is atteriy insignificant, while lthat of the latter is a tremendous | political iufluence. The cntire State tax amounts trabout $500,000 and ithe sheriffs get for col’ecting it $25-, |QOU. The men employed by the cal- lector of the western district to col- lect the internat revenue tux receive more than ten times what all the sheriffs in the State get for collect- ing the State tax. If we are to have civil service reform, Jet jt begin right at this point. If we areto lave economy ict it begin rignt at this point alse, ‘These are te be the two great demands of the future, reform in civil service and reform in expen- { ses. Let the Democrats in Congre-s take this matter to heart and begin their work of reformation in the western district of North Carolina. To addition that district is administered on principles so offensive aud odivus to the people that every consideration demands a change. Truly the power exercised by a collector of revenue is tow great to be lodged in. one man. It is & menace to the freedom of elections, and it is a corrupting influence that bodes the people ouly evil. Indeed the inter- nal revenue department in North Carolina to-day is the head and front of the Republican party in this State. Should it be abolished, the Republi- can party in North Carolina would be gene. It is this patronage alone that sustains that party and gives it vitality. Lustead of being an instra- weut of the collection of revenue, this bureau bas become an instru- ment to systain the falling fortunes of a political party. That’s all there isin it. Why should it not be wiped out utterly, root and branch ?—Nens and Observer. L < A contemporay said some time ago that Gen. Jackson said he was born in South Carolina, and therefore his declaration ouglit to settle the ques~ tion. Now, if there are any two things that a man does not know cer- tainly, it is where he was Lora or who was his father. The mother knows more abont that than the ebild, and Gen. Jacksou’s mother said that he was born in North Caroliua.— Char- lotte Demoerat, broom. teen .

We publish below an extract from the Saratoga Sun, in which that paper at- tempts to show that next to Mr. Til- den, RoswELu P. Frower, of New York, can more certainly carry the Ewpire State for President than any other man. Mr. Flower has little national reputation, but that of itself js no serious objection to him. The Sun says: “The man for the Democrats to nominate is therefore and without question, one who cau certainly carry New York. And while we believe any candidate the convention would probably nominate, would stand a fa- vorable chance to get the electoral votes of this State, we do not think it the part of wisdom to rely upen pos- siblities nor even probabilities, when certainties are surely within our reach. Who, then, can certainly secure the electoral strength of the Empire State? | The man whose name will most read- ily come to mind in answer to this question, is Samuel J. Tilden, the pa- | triot stutesinan, the wise executive, the consummate leader, who has suf- fered in uncomplaining silence, the greatest wrong ever inflicted upon avy American by his countrymen, If Mr. Tilden were younger or had the physical vigor to undertake the her- culean Jabors of the campaign, no other’s name would be mentiened in | connection with this noniaon. | Even as jt is, if he would only say the word, the party would rally to! his support as Sne man.

The campaign of 1884 will soon be upon us, in fact the marshaling of the forces and the arguments have already begun. Just now the following arti- cle from the New York World is se timely and ao sensible that we trust all our readers will give it a careful and thoughtful perusal. ‘I'he World says: The real issue involved in the Pres- idential election is the continued ex- istence of a republican goveroment in fact as well as in form. If a politi- cal party, having been in power near- ly a quarter of a century, can success- fully set up a prescriptive right to hold possession of the government to exclusion of all others, espite the will of the people, we cannot claim to live under a real Republic, If elections by the people are overthrown by sub- sequent fraud, or are purchased by money raised through the vast power of the Government ever the wealthy corporations and monopobies it has warmed into life, we are a Republic If our Legislatures, National and State, are purchased ; if our highest judicial tribunals are de- | bauched ; if our public officials are corrupt and dishonest ; if the Federal Administration owes its existence to the money of exacting corporations, whose bidding it is compelled to do, we no longer havea government of the people, It is the business of those who de- sire to restore the reality of cepubli- can government to point out by what stealthy steps it has been destroyed, or at least dangerously impaired. It | iS necessary for those who would form an intelligent opinion of the danger threatening our free institutions to examine fairly aud impartially the record Republicanism has made in the past. Will any one pretend that the insidious approach of the Repub- lican leaders under Grant to a dicta- torship is not a lesson and warning? When the Federal bayonets were at the threat of popular liberty in Lou- isiana, and the legislature of a sover- cign State was dispersed by Sheridan’s troopers, the advance of imperialism was checked by the protest of syeh Republicans as William M. Evarts, When a wreckless partisan proposed to clothe Grant with arbitrary powers und liberties of the whole people, even such a Republican Blaine called a halt. the Presidency, and Wm.

And this opinion is based upon seventeen years’ trial, and often in competition with the best of other brands on the market. It is a tried and proved fertilizer, which the plant- er can use without the risk of getting something unsuited to his crop; and therefore I can recommed it with confidence.” Messrs. Mathews & Williamson, of Reidsville, N. C., wrote the following to the Company, and state that they have scen nothing since to change their judgment. “From our own personal experience, and it covers a long time, in watching the re- salte from the use of various brands of commercial fertilizers handled in this section, it is our mature judgment that the ‘ANCHOR BRAND?’ stands at the head of ail for the production of jine, silky, yellow tobacco.

I had blistered it several times and concluded that wy horse would never get over being lame. Five weeks ago to-day I commenced using Kea- dall’s Spavin Cure and after using it three weeks the lameness entirely disappeared. It has been worth $80.00 to me. H. H. Horse.

A SHower or BLoop.—We deo not ask our readers, says the Chatham Record to believe the wonderful statement, but merely publish it as it is told to us. The wife of Kit Lasater, a negro who lives on the farm of Mr. Silas Beckwith, in New Hope township, states that about 2 o'clock on Monday the 25th of February, while she was at the bars near her cabin a show- er of blood fell around her from a sun- bright sky! Mavy of the neighbors, after hearing her statement, visited the spot and they all say that the ground—embra- cing an area of about 90 feet iv circum fer- evce—was covered with something like blood ; and an examina- tion of the trees iu this space showed blood on the branches.

THE BIG MUSTER The annnal general muster in-the different counties of western North | Carolina. was the biggest thiog in the conntice, I have seen lar- ger crowds ef people together on such occasions than I ever saw on any other oveasiun, Every body was there that had shoes to wear; gentlemen, ladies, girls and boys, eld aud young, big and little, and every one. It was a regular field day for the young folks to do their courting. They woald dress in their best eloth- es and put the best fuot foremoet on that day. They started from home with the wildest expectations of hav- ing every wish and desire fulfilled and obtained. The success of each depended in equal manner upon tie shrewd maneuvering of each for himself or hersel.f A great feature on such occasions was the old German Jadies with their wagon loads ef ginger cakes, black- berry and apple wines, all of their own making. Speaking of ginger cakes, they could make the swectest most delicious and best that I ever saw. A cake aud glass of apple wine of their make was just good enough te make a young girl bite her lucious lip ora boy strike bis daddy. I have vever seen a ginger cake worthy of the name south of the Savanuah river. ; It was the custom for the youag men toinvitea lady or ladies tua cake wagon and treat her or them to cakeand wine.

It wasso heavy, that it sagged his coat to one-side, | He mounted his bay colt, and I my muster ; got there and hitched our horses to swinging! limbs ef a wide spreading oak tree) and we walked up to the large crowd and looked about fora moment, and then walked around to where a great many ladies were standing and peep- ed about for Rachel B » but did not see her. My friend’s big apple had drawn his coat all to one side, I suggested to him that he take the ap- ple from his pocket, throw bis hand- kerchief over it, and held it in his hand. He did so, and I straightened up his coat for him. We walked round about among the ladies and geutlemen, but could not find Rachel Briggs. The crowd was so large that it was a difficult matter to find any particular person. We kept going around, but finally took a stand and looked around, and not more than ten feet from us there stood Rachel Briggs engaged in animated conver- sation with one of the-town “fellers.”’ She wore a blue and red changeable ovlored silk dress. It looked red for a while, then blne, and then red again. It was bewildering. White bounet with artificial flowers stuek upon it, and some ribbons fluttering inthe wind; had a fan and a para- rol. She was beautiful and charming; a bright bird froma sunny clime, with beautiful plumage, rare and net often seen, that flits before one for a moment, then dissappears and leaves the beholder in wonderment, That that the nearest way to a lady’s affec- | tions was down her throat, 1 am not! prepared to say, but will say this; That any thing apart from that surance gow offered the public Is found in the Val- | pelicy at an actual average cost of $3.50 per annym.

A Scene in a Texas Theatre Not Down on the Bills. San Antonia, Tex., March 12.— Ben Thompson and King Fisher shot each other desd in the Vandeville | theatre last night. Joe. Foster, who attempted to interfere with the com- batants, was shot in the leg and will probably die of hemorrhage. Thomp- son and Fisher had been drinking to- gether and entered the theatre in com- pany. They met Foster in the dress circle and seme words were exchang- ed. The dress circle was quickly cleared ; the occupants jumping into the parquette below, and through the side windows into the street. Noene seems to know who fired the first shot or hew many were wounded in the shooting. Before the theatre was fairly cleared of its occupants, 1,500 persons on the outside were clamoring at the closed doors for admittance. Shortly after the shoeting Thompson’s broth- er put in am appearance, but was promptly arrested. A jury was hast- ily empaneled, and it was ascertained that Thempson had received four mortal wounds, and that Fisher had been wounded three times, two of whieh would have caused instant death. The remains of the victims were taken in charge by a host of friends and tlhe obsequies have been ordered on the grandest scale, regardless of expense, The theatre where the affray occur- red was the scenc last year of the kill- ing by Thompson, of Jack Harris, who was proprietor of the place. Fish- er and Thompson were probably the two most desperate men in Texas. They have each killed a large num- ber of men. a Civil Service in Mitchell. A correspondent of the Statesville Landmark, at Elk Park, Mitchell county, N.C., says: “I will try and give you a little hint of the outrages of the Republican party in this sec- tion, Since they are beginning to see they are losing ground in Mitch- ell, they have begun to use the petty (4th class) postoffices as a means of reward aud punishment, having ap- pointed one Lute Banner, a rank Re- publican “Liberal,” or in other werds more easily understood, a petty brin- die tail, in place of Wm.

The act provided for doing this by fear installments. When the time came for the fourth and last installment, the Treasary was not iu condition to spare the money, and so it was not paid over. Virginia recently sent in a petition to the Supreme Court of the United States at Washington for a mandamus, compelling the Treasurer of the United States to pay over this fourth installment, and the de cision of the Court was adverse to the petition, on the ground that: the act did pot apply to surplus revenue accruing since 1839. oe EO Farat Exptosion.—A fire damp ex- plosion oceurred at the Pocahontas coal wine in Virginia, last week, which was more destructive of human life than the late cyclone which swept through this State in February last.

Away from the po- jitical sea, I have in my secluded home observed with intense interest assing events affecting the inter- gts or honor of Mississippi, and have rejoiced! te see in the diversification of the development of new re- sources of prosperity, and the increas- ed facilities of public education, rea- yon to hope for a future to our State more prosperous than any preceding ert, Lhe safety and honor of a re- ublic must rest upon the morality, intelligence and patriotism of the com- munity a “We are now in a transition state. which is always a bad one, both in society and in nature. What is to be the result of the changes which may be anticipated it is not sible to forecast, but our people have shown such fortitude and have risen so grandly from the deep afflic- tion inflicted upon them, that it is fair to entertain bright hopes for the future. Sectional hate, concentrating itself upon my devoted head, deprives me of the privilege accorded to others | in the sweeping expression of ‘with- out distinction of race, color or pre- yious condition,’ but it cannot deprive me of that which is nearest and dear- est to my heart, the right to bea Mis- sissippian, and it is with great grati-| feation that I receive this emphatic recognition of that right by the rep- | resentatives of our people.

Fate decreed that they should be unsuccessful in the effort to maintain their claim to resume the grants made to the feder- . al government. Our people have ac- cepted the decree; it therefore be- hooves them, as they may, to promote the general welfare of the Union, to| show to the world that hereafter, the patriotism of our peeple is not measur- ed by lines of latitude and longitude, but is as broad as the obligations they haye assumed, and embraces the Whole of our ocean-bound domain. Jet them leave to their children and VOL XV.---THIRD SERIES i tieket for which any Democrat ceuld | that, A Harmonious Alliance. rom the Asheville Citizen. The following is from the Greensboro North State, claimed to be an “‘Alliance” organ : FAYETTEVILLE, N. C., Feb. 27, 1884. Epiror Norts Strate:—The issue in the next campaign will be: 1st. The right of the people to select their own rulers. 2nd. An honest ballot. Upon this platform all men of broad liberal views can uuite. I suggest the following ticket. No man onit has ever been defeated for office. It weuld receive ene hundred and twenty thousand Republicam votes and twenty-five thousand anti-bourbon Demo- cratic votes. For Governor—Charies Price, of Rowan. Lieutenant Governor—David A. Barnes, of Hert- ford, Supreme Court J haries Clarke, of Craven. Attorney-General— h Murphy, of Wilson. Treasurer—Johnstone Jones, of Buncombe. Auditor—J. M, Leach, Jr., of Davidson. Superintendent of Public Inetruction—F. D. Win- ston, of Bertie. The above ticket would make the ring- sters squirm. LIBERAL. And the following extracts are from the Asheville Republican, which does not claim to belong tothe “Alliance,” but represents those straight Republicans who claim to be honestly Republican for the principles they think characterize that party, and who refuse to endorse the tricks, outrages and compromises of Mott and bis crowd. It all presents in- teresting, light literature, Says the Republican : ‘“We are informed that the editer of a Liberal paper in speaking of the ticket to be put out by the Republican and Liber— al bosses, said it would be a Democratic vote. Such a ticket certainly will have to get Democratic vetes, if it gets any, for Republicans will not support it.” “If we wanted the Democratic State ticket elected, we would arrange matters after this fashion:—A coalition ticket with a Democrat for Governor who is the father of the illegitimate child, called present county government, for Lieutenant Governor, Kuklux who has held office as a Republiean, and so on down. ‘This would be exactly in accord- ance with some people’s idea of har- meny.” “The rank and file of the Republicans de not endorse Liberalism—only such as hold or seek office do endorse it. And that number of Liberals in the State who do not seek office is so exceedingly small in eur caleulation of Liberal strength, it is witheut siguificance. Those who are the life aud seul of Liberalism are, as arule, disappointed Democratic aspirants, without other grievance against the Democratic party,” &c. eee States’ Rights. The latest stand for States’ Rights has been taken by the New York Journal of Commerce, as is evidenced in the follow- ing correspondence : Witmincton, N. C., March 8, 1883.

GASKILL. —_—— TOBACCO! If ever you had a showing for fine prices, it is in the crop of Tobacco to be planted this year. PPPS TS VSS FHHTTTTRTRS We keep a store, and strive to have in that store everything @ farmer would like to buy, both for himself ind his family. We want our customer to be a cheerful man, and if he has money in his purse he will be cheerful; but he can’t be if, when he comes to sell his crop, it brings him little or nothing. Everybody knows that on the fertilizer he uses, allowing the season to be at all favorable, depends the resnit of his crop, and this being the case, he has no right to risk that crop on anything that has not been tried and proved. The following will show what has been “tried and proved,” in the fertilizer way, on fine tobacco, and Major RaGianp, of Halifax county, Va., the great tobacco authority, and grower of pedigree tobacco seed, is the man who tells about it. If anybody knows what tobacco is he certainly does: “There are several brands of fertilizer manufactured specially for tobacco, differing in composition, price, and merit; and after repeated experiments with most, if not all the best, the author gives it as his decided opinion, that for fine, bright, silky tobacec OTHING EQUALS the ‘ANCHOR, BRAND Tobacco Fertilizer, prepared by the Southern Fertilizing Company, Richmond, Na. And this opinion is based upen seventeen years’ trial, and often in competition with the best of other brands on the market. It is a tried and proved fertilizer, which the plant- er can use without the risk of getting something unsuited to his crop; and thcrefore I can recommed it with confidence.” Messrs. Mathews & Williamson, of Reidsville, N. C., wrote the following to the Company, and state that they have scen nothing since to change their judgment. “From our own personal experience, and it covers a long time, in watching the re- sults from the use of various brands of commercial fertilizers handled in this section, it is our mature judgment that the ‘ANCHOR BRAND?’ stands at the head of all for the production of sine, silky, yellow tobacco. The plant scems to receive more fitting nourishment from the use of this article than from any other, and we are of opinion that if our farmers made it their stand-by, we would hear less of light chaffy tobacco, having some color but no body, and that the farmer would realize the result he cught to enjoy from his labor; for low-grade tobacco will not bring big money.” Now we want you to bave “big money” for your crop; because we not only desire you to make good bills with us, but pay for them when they are made; hence we han- dle the ‘Anchor Brand,’ and will supply you, in quantities to suit, direct from the factory. We don’t want people to abuse us about their fertilizer; we, therefore, sell only what time has shown to be the best. So, make no arrangements in this line, until you see or confer with us. You certainly can’t afford to take any risk this year. J. D. GASKILL. COTTON ! Ss I will have this Season in larger quantity than ever before, the old relia- ble SEA FOWL GUANO FOR COTTON.

Ev And to accommodate my friends and customers, I will keep on hand a fullstock of The Colored Vote---Letter from a Colored Man. Cor, News and Observer. Allow this brief communication to. ap- your next issue. It has been sug- gested to me by many colored voters of Eastern North Carolina that should Maj. John Hughes be the nominee of the Dem- ecratic party for Governor and Hon. John 8. Long for Superintendent of Public In- struction, that the Democratic ticket would receive their hearty and unquali- fied support. Bat of course you and many others of the Democratic party will con- sider this communication all gossip. Why? Because you think on the day of eleetion we colored folks will all be solid for the Republican party. Please consid- er and remember we have got more sense than we used to have. Here, don’t you suppose we have got sense enough to know that Major John Hughes is as good a friend to us as Messrs. Price, Johnson, Leach, etc., who used to be outspoken Democrats, abused the colored race on the rostrum, a thing Major Hughes did not do when he raa for Lieutenant Goy- ernor? Again, Mr. Editor, you and oth- er Democrats may think that we colored people have not sense enough to know that a majority uf so-called white Repub- licans are Republicans for office, and that it is an easy thing for one to say he is a Republican and then not be one. You forget that we have carefully noticed things and find that a Democratic admin- istration is a betver friend to us than the one which preceeded it. You fail te think that we colored people are aware of this fact. Suppese we should unite our 96,- 000 votes with the white Republicans’ 11,000, and elect the State ticket, not one man elected would be a representative of the colored race—the 96,000 colored votes. Then it is true, this is a white man’s gov- ernment ; then it is equally true that the colored race should support that party of the government whe gives it the greater beuefit. We colored people are told that the present system of county government isa nnisance. It may be a nuisance to the white Republicans, but certainly it is far from beiug one to the coloured race, for it benefits the race. Why ? Because it gives the coloved people more and _ better schools, &c. Because, under the admin- istration preceding this one, my race was used by another set of white men as hew- ers ef wood and drawers of water; and now they are out and the present set in. And this is why they think the present county system is mot so good. Why I ain in favor of the present State adminis- tration is because it treats my race more like fellow citizens, and their educational interest is more carefully guarded. Respectfully, K; a The Virginia Tin Mine. LETTER FROM ONE OF THE PROPRIE- TORS. To the Editor of the American Artisan, Chicago : In compliance with your request I send you an account of the tin found in Rockbridge county, Va. In the month of September, 1882, Mrs. Mar- tha D. Cash, of Irish Creek, in the northeast part of the county, discov- ered a deposit ef mineral, which she found on her land and shewed it to Mr. Thomas Massie, of Nelson coun- ty, a prospector for minerals and the associate owner of this property with Capt. James W. Henly, of Amherst county and myself. He pronounced it to be the oxide of tin, but did not exhibit the specimens to be tested un- til June, 1883, when the writer and Capt. Henly showed them to Prof. Dewey, of the Smithsonian Institute, when the American Institute of Min- ing Engineers visited Lynchburg, Va., and also to Prof. Jas. P. Kimball, of Lehigh, both of whom pronounced them to be the best cassiterate but were doubtful of the quantity. We commenced the work of development by cross cuts in September, 1883, and at No. 1 found a large deposit of ore, (see McCreath’s report and Camp- bell’s also) which now appears as stockwork. This has been opened by a cut 60 feet long, 8 feet deep, and by two cuts, 29 and 39 feet respectively, at right angles to it. At No. 2, 700 yards 25° west of south, we have opened a cut and found a deposit shewing about three feet of good ore in a vertical vein. The interval be- tween these two points has been cross cut to show the continuity of the vein. There are now to be seen four distinct parallel veins, and a fifth appears by surface indications sufficiently plain to warrant me in saying it is as g as the others, and which will be epen- ed about the Ist of March next. The altitude of this locality, 2,700 feet above the tide, makes it impossible in the severe weather we have had this wivter to doany work and the ground is now covered with snow. Our pur- yose is pow, as soon as the winter breaks, to demonstrate by actual min- ing, that there is sufficient ore to jus- tify the erection of works for the con- centration and smelting of the ore on the ground. The quality of the ore, its freedom from deleterious matter, and the contivuity of the leads being new a settled question, it only re- mains to settle the question of quan- tity to enable us to say that there will in a few years be no necessity for the United States to import $25,000,000 worth of tin and tin plates from Eng- land, as they did in 1882, and which pre, a duty of 45 per cent. on about $19,000,000 of it; if net more. There is area of 5,000 to 6,000 acres iv which the surface indications justify me in believing that tin is to be found, but I have no doubt that it will be found during the year 1884 at other places in Virginia, on the line southwest of this locality. We have several thou- sand acres of this land under contract, but I am writing particularly now or the “Martha Cash Mine,” at which such work has been done to justify the assertion that we haveion Virginia a veritable tin mine, and which oc- curs over a tract of 150 to 400 acres of laud ; a favorable locality and per- haps better than others because found first, and found first because ofa larger outcrop here than at other places, aud at which mining above water level ean be carried on for 250 feet. Thiere is a fall in Irish creek at this place by which the water can be utilized for the cleaning of the ore for market, of steam. The property is nine miles from Vesuvius Station. a little vil- lage on the Shenandoah i road. A branch read dove te 8 ley of Irish creek to the mouth at South river would intersect the Shen- andoah Valley railroad at a distance of twelve miles with comparative lit- tle cost.

Ir was announced some weeks ago tha there would be -perfect harmony between the Republicaus aud Liberals, acting to- gether as ove party. It will be remem- bered tliat in the last canvass they were somewhat at cross purposes—that they apparently held separate State conven- tions, one a week behind the other, though the leading spirits of each were the same in both. The recent announcement al- luded to conveyed the idea that the Lib- erals were going to identify themselves with the Republicans fully and complete- ly ; but more recent events contradict this very decidedly. The same old game of the Liberals isto be played. They are &till to pretend that they are Democrats —they will swear to it if necessary —and even elaim to be better Democrats than any one else; with this difference: they can’t swallow bourbon Democracy. Thus we shall bave Capt. Price, Col. William Johnson, of Charlotte, and J. M. Leach, of Davidson, rugning aronnd making speeches against the ‘Bourbon Democra- cy” just as they did two years ago.

Is that not enough ? Oh no. The Republicans will ruo it again in the next canvass just as though it were a new question. It is an easy thing to tear down a house but it takes much time and labor to baild one. The present county government system has worked well and subserves the best interests of all parts of the State. The people have repeatedly declared in favor of it, why then ask them to pall it down and make another ? i A negro preacher named Joho Clarke, of Cincinnati, Ohio, bas created cousider- able excitement in Baldwin and other counties in Georgia, by incendiary speeches to the negroes, delivered to them in the woods away from the ears of white people. He is calling on the ne- -oes to rise and bateher the white peo- ple, killing all, old and young, sparing only the girl children. His incendiaryism leaked ont after a while, and the white people obtaining full infermaticn of his work, put the sheriff on his track, and now the would-be second John Brown, would rather be in the jungles of Africa than in the briay patches of Georgia.

Is pleased to announce to the ladies of stars, who so loudly professed in the last canvases to be Democrats, but opposed to the “bourbons,” &c. The only disturbing question between the Liberals and Republicans two years age was, which of them was the kite and which was the tail. The Liberals want- ed to be the kite, aud the true blue Re- publicans swere they would not be the tail to apy sach kite. They have had this question up before the Republican magnates at Washington, President At- thur among them, and the rumored re- conciliation alluded to above was under- stood at the time as the result of confer- ences held there. It appears, however, that pelicy has constrained the party leaders to leave the question unsettled, and to let Liberals go before the people as they did two years ago, and fool them if they can by professing to be Demecrats bat opposed to the “bourbons.” They will advecate every plank of the Repub- lican platform; and even some of the measures of the Democracy; but it is well bnderstood, that though they may not. be the Republican kite they area necessary part of it, and will come in for thejr share of the divide should they joint- ly earry the State. It is to be a game of cheat just as it was before, and they will _intérchangably play kite or tail according to the company they are in. — or Oo oe No Pretection Necdcd. Columbus, Ga., has a practical cotton manufactarer who has also studied the tariff question as affecting bis basiness. Mr. W. H. Youna, president of the Eagle apd Phenix Manufacturing Company, of Colambus, says the proposed reduction in the tariff would have no effect what- erer on the cotton industries of the South. He says a reduction of 20 per gent, op heavy goods would hot enable either England or the Eastern States to compete with the South, and illustrates / jethns ; The company over which (I preside consumes about 50 bales of cotton per day. A New England mill consuming that amount of cotton would have to pay $350 per day more for it than it costs this compapy, aud a mill in England would have to pay more than that. The advantages are so groat that the tariff, if entirely removed, would not enable England to compete with this country on heavy weight goods, and if the tariff was removed on all articles that epter into the cost of manufacturing, then this ceantry could command the markets of the world and the supremacy of England would be ended.” Again he says: ‘I believe the manu- facturing interests in this- county with their natural advantages, if free from all tariff legislation, would soon make the United States the manufacturing center.” Mr. Young is not speaking at random. He. has made repeated trips to England in successful prosecution of his busi- ness and has diligently studied the whole subject in all ifs relations. His opivion is therefore entitled to great weight. eee Conaress.—The hol@uga of patents are patnestly besieging Cougress passage of a bill designed. te protect the people against some of the evils of the patent aystem.. One of its provisions protects the purchaser of a patent urticle whether sold to him by an authorized or nuanthorized agent.

As a goodly number of new hands will try their luck at’ raising tobacco this year, it may be of sume use to them to read the subjoined article by Major Ropert L. Racianp, of Hyco, Virginia, in respect to soil, prepara- tion and manuring. Sometime hence we propose to give his directions fer the cultivation required, &., presum- ing that all who propose to go into the business have alrvady selected their seed und made their seed Leds, and that the following article on the next stepin order is now in good time: Selection of Soil, Preparation and Mauuring. The tobacco plant thrives best in a deep mellow, loamy soil, rich or made so with manuns. The subsoil to be sufficiently porous to permit the water falling on the surface to pass dowuward readily, and not to accu- mulate to drown and stagnate. If old land is selected, it ought to be fallowed deep in the fall or early winter, that the frosts may ralverize it. ‘lurn under, if possibte, some coarse farm manure, for its decay will greatly help to loosen the soil, while furvishing pabulum for the crop. Asa coarse mauure for yellow tebacco, nothing is better than wheat straw turned under in’ the fall and winter, The plants rarely fail to ripen yellow in color on land thus treated, In theearly spring more manure may be applied, but itis better that this should ceme from the compost heap. Follow the application of the compost with one-horse turning plows, ‘crossing the previous ploughing, turn- ing not exceeding four or five inches deep—about half the depth of the first ploughing. Then, just befere it is time to plant, ruin double shovel ploughs over the lot, crossing the pre- vious furrowa, and follow with har- row or drag, crossing again to ther- ougbly make fine. These repeated previous one, never fail, if the work is done when the land is in condition, to put it in proper tilth.

But be- the hilis are made, it may be | Well, unless the soil is naturally rich, an is not often the case with | suils best adapted to yellow tobacco, to apply some fertilizing material to hasten forward the plants, and ma- nure them properly and early. Here ercial féertilizers have done, and often do mere harm the more readily they are appropria- ted and assimilated by the plants, if available form, Nitrogen, phespho- ric acid, potash, lime and seda, are most necessary fur the tobacco plant ; and a fertilizer, which supplies the relative quantity of each, will never fail te show good effects therefrom, if the rainfall is sufficient to quicken their action. There are several brands of fertili- zers manufactured especially for to- baceo, differing in compositien, price and merit; and after repeated ex- periments with most, if notall, of the best, the author gives it as his decided opinion, that for fine, bright, silky tobacco, nothing equals the “ANCHOR BRranbD” Tebacco Fertili- zer, prepard by the Southern Fertili- ziug Company of Richmond, Va. And this opinion is based npon six- teen years’ trial, and often in compe- tition with the best of other brands on the market. It is a tried and prov- ed fertilizer, which the planter can use without the risk of getting some- thing unsuited tuo his crop, and there- fore, we can recommend it with con- fidence. A good article ef any grade of tubacco requires high farming. Bear this in mind, and act accordiaogly. MODE OF APPLYING FERTILIZERS, Pianters differ in the manner of ap- plying fertilizers, whether in the hill, drill or broadest. That the same quantity will go further and produce larger results the first year, for the quantity used when applied in the hill or drill is generally conceded. But advocates for broadcasting claim that when the crop, to which the fertilizer is applied, is to be followed by another in quick suc- cession—to be suwn in wheat as soon the to.acco is removed—then broad- casting is best, for reasons which seem too Apparent to need explana- tion, Having prepared the land for hill- ing, apply the fertilizer by whichever mode the planter prefers, aud in such quantity asthe natural strength of the soil indicates, laying off rows three feet three inches apart, and make the hills about two feet ten inches distant from centre to centre. Mark the measure on the hoe-handle and require the hillers te apply it frequently as a guide. The iews should be wider apart than the hills, to afford) proper cultivation witheut breaking and bruising the plants at the final ploughing—a matter of no small impertance, as the least blem- ish ona fine leaf nearly destroys its value as a wrapper. PLANTING. Having prapared the hills, you are ready to plant any time after the first of May. Planting is often most effectuallly done when the hills are being made in May, and the land is moist with the winter’s sap, by plant- ing in the afternoon the hills made the same day. If then properly plan- ted, very few of the plants will fail to live. Observe to draw the plants one by one from the bed, and handle as not to bruise them. It isa waste of time and plants to set out very small plants, bat wait until they are of proper size—the largest leaves about two anda half to three iuches wide. Put a basket of plants in the hands of a boy or girl, who drops a plant on each hill, dropping in ove or two rows according to age aud expertuess. The men follow, with each a planting peg made of hard wood, six inches long, ene and a quarter inch iu diameter at large end, and tapering to a poiat. Each planter takes a “hand plant” to start with (unless the dropper has learned to drop two plants ou the first hill) and pushing his planting peg seme two inches inches into the hill, withdraws the peg, inserts the plant, and bya dexterous movement of the peg and the dirt geutly but eompactly around the roots. He then picks up the plant on the hill as he moves furward and by the time he reaches the next hill has adjusted the plant in his hand iusert into the hole in’ the next bill. Thus the “hand plant” facili- tatesthe work. Try it, and you will be convinced. ‘There is art iv plant- ing properly, as is shown in the in- |}creased number of living monuments that attest superior work. But why euter into such minute details? say some. That you may start right, shun the errors of inexperience, and practice at the start the best methods, as demonstrated by successful prac- lice. lf the soil is dry when the hills are made, then it will require a ‘“sea- son” for planting. The best come with showers. It is not well to plant soon after a soaking rain, but wait until the land settles. If the plants are good, seasons favorable, and the planting well done, very few will die, if transplanted before the 10:h of July. After that time all is uncer- tainty. Hence the importance of get- ting a stand before that time. After planting ever, it will be neces- sary to replant from time to time as easons occur, embracing every op- portunity to fill up the missing hills. If cut-werms are troublesome, hunt for destroy every one as far as possi- ble; for it is useless to put a plant in hill where one of these pests has ftaken up quarters, and expect it to ’ ’ »{the kouckles of the left hand, closes] quantity of manure previously ap- one horse turning ploughs, lapping feur fur- trench, and finished in this manner vour lot is ready t% be planted, when the|to than on wen ses fy soils, A Fae ; a 18 — The smaller the , and the more earthquake concentrated the fertilizing elements, eres, re =< nae Grace, Heart’s Content, Hatz Harbor, Brigas Bay, Roberts and Holy Road. - At of the right material and in the most|St. John’s the disturbance was felt.

BYR OF MICHIGAN, NTE ] Saturday, March 22, 1884. The Ho J and havin te of the Union, pe 54 ment 0 areDouse— Mr. CU PCHEON said : Mr, CHAIRMAN: I shail ask the the committee for a few poments only, while I present such views 28 I have upon this question gad my reasons fur opposing the bill, ‘anilest to us that the question not only a complex one, but it is leo 8 complicated one. It is a tri- gogniar question with three aspects. i the-tirst place we have the busi- ness aspect of the case. In_ the sec- oad place we have its revenue aspect. And in the third place, toa great many of us, It has a moral aspect. First, iv regard to the busine-s aspect of the case, there are four classes that are very greatly concern- ed in the result of the action of this body in regard to this bill. _First sre the producers — the distillers ; secondly, the middlemen—the hold- es avd bankers who have loaned upon this security ; in the third place there are the retail dealers and con- and in the fourth place the gttention of J, is mani sumers ; genera! public. . Now, first, asto the distillers— the producers. Whef they went into this business to produce this over- sock of whiskey whica it is now asked that the Government shall as- sist them in carrying, they did so with their eyes wide open, with a full and complete understanding of all the risks they were assuming, of the danger of overproduction, and with a full understanding of the tax which the Government had against it, and robabilities of the extension or non- extension of the bonded period, Now having gone,asa speculation, into this business, into the manufacture of this product. which they well knew, and we all well know, requires time for its aging and perfection, and where the holding of it would be for their pecuniary advantage, they come tous now with avery peor grace to ‘ask us to help them out of the em bar- rasments of their business specula- tion. For my part Ido not believe to the full extent in this crv of distress. They have overproduced. ‘There is no doubt about that. They knew they were overproducing when they There is no doubt about that either, They knew all the risks they were taking in their overproduction, and it comes, as I before said, with poor grace from the producers new to come to this Congress and ask that weshall become partners with them in their speculation, help them out of their difficulty, and take 4} per cent. interest on our money as our share of the profit. cers, In the second place, we have the holders, the middlemen, and the bankers, Those who hold this pro- duct have taken it, I assume, in the main,and almost entirely, since the passage of the internal revenue tax So much for the produ- law, and the previous bonded exten- tion laws. The bankers who have loaned money upon this stock of whiskey also did with their eyes wide open, know- ing fully all the circumstances, know- ing the fact of overproduction, kuow- ing the period of extension, and know- ing the measure of tax and every other element that question of financial speculation which they undertook when they either purchased this whiskey er took it assecurity for loans. They discoun- ted all this when they invested, I tay, therefere, that these middlemen an ex- and bankers come here with ceptionally poor plea when they ask Qs to step in and take a share of the speculation, to assume a part of the risk, and te take 4} per cent. of the amount of the tax as our share of the profits, I come ‘axand the present bonded period heir interest certainly is to have cheap whiskey, and they are therefore hot interested in the passage of this It may not make whiskey more arce or more dear, but I trust that ill, 't may break the compact power-o th of the Govern to ence, jp House oF REPRESENTATIVES, nse dbelng in Committee of the Whole on under considera- pill (H. a. 5265) to extend the time for the pea tbe DN tbe tax on disUilled spirits now in entered into the next to the third class in- lerested in this matter, the consumers and retail dealers. I undertake to say that the consumers and retail dealers have no interest at all in favor of the Passage of this bill, but are interested rather in the retention of the present at dangerous ring which more than once has corrupted the administration ment, at times too near the center of power and influ- a — trade has been brought about de- signédly for the purpose et SPEECH the market, In other words, it is u or for the purpose of establishing a ON M. CUTCHEON, | ™onopoly in order that this great re- serve of whiskey may be held in hand to be thrown upon the market when needed to control it, or to be withheld from the market when that is necessary to keep up the price. In other words, it is a monopoly as com- plete and much less reputable than the great Western Union Telegraph Company in its line or the Standard Oil Company in its line. If these men are exposed to risks and losses they have exposed themselves to those risks and losses by their own act. I come now to speak for a moment of the general public. It is said that the failure to pass this bill will affect business generally, that there wil! be a falling off, as was said by the gen- tleman from Kentucky [Mr. Willis] the other day, in the consumption of corn for instance. And he warned my brethren from Kansas and Iowa that they would be burning their corn for fuel again before long, be- cause the consumption of cern for this purpose would be so greatly re- duced. He named 10,000,000 bush- els per year asthe amount of this falling off. Now the gentleman from Kentucky knows that that isa phantom with- out a body, shadow without avy sub- stance. In 1880 the production of corn in the United States was over 1,754,000,000 vushels. The gentle- man tells us that last year the con- sumption of corn in the manufacture of whisky was reduced by 10,000,000 bushels, ubout ove eighth of 1 per cent. of the entire production of corn in the country and less than 3 per cent. of production of Illinois alone. Aud the reduction in the comsump- tion of corn for the manufacture of whiskey to the amount of o1e-eighth of 1 percent. is to bring a business panie upon the country, if we may believe the gentleman from Kentucky. To state the proposition is all that is needed to answer it. As to the banks, when we compare the small amount ivvested in this bonded whisky, as compared with the vast volume of our banking capi- tal, the prospect of a business panic from this source is equally absurd. There is no demand from the gen- eral public for the extension of this bended period, In my beyhood days I was accus- tomed to see what we called scare- crows set up in the corn fields. But the gentleman from Kentucky [Mr. Willis] has sg up an exceedingly shabby and vey thin seare-crow in the corn fields of the geutle- men from the great Northwest, but it will not scare them to any serious extent. For if this corn is not used for making whisky, it will be used for bread. But it would seem that the gentlemen think it a pity to waste so much corn on bread whea it could be made into good old Bourbon whis- ky, especially if the Government will only held it while it gets its age ! What is the proposition now before us—this business proposition, as it is called? It is that the tax now over- due and about to become due, in other words, a part of the revenue of the Government, shall be reloaned by the Government to the whisky ring in order to assist them in their specu- Jations and in their attempt to control the market. { had expected when this proposi- tion was considered that some gen- tleman would rise in his place upon this floor aud denounce it as uncon- stitutional ; would denounce as un- constitutional the proposition that the Government ehould evgaye in a speculation in whisky. When we proposed to improve the Mis- sissippi River, to go control and curb the great “Father of Waters” that from its fountains to the sea it should roll peacefully, beneficently, and notas aterror to those who dwell upon its banks, we were told that there was no warrant in the Con- stitution for that. Andalittle later, when it was proposed to pass a law to stay the ravages of plearo-pneumonia amoung the herds of our agriculturists ia the East and in the West, we were again told that such a measure was unconstitutional, And when we proposed, a short time later, to make an = appropriation to save the sufferers from the overflow in the Ohio Valley, we were gravely informed that there were serious doubts about the constitutionality of suc a measure of relief. But wheu itis proposed to loan anywhere from forty-five to seventy million of dollars for two years, at 43 f| per cent. interest, to the whisky ring, I have heard no one raise a voice here te say that it was unconstitutional. It is unconstitutional to try to save men from being drowned with water, but it is strictly constitutional to save them from being drowned in whisky ! Before coming to the next aud last ; ar oy ny own part I am not anxious class, the general public, L_ wish just For my ae this po; ) he f f about the Constitution. As Macauley th; point to say = the fact OF] once said about the English constitu- "NS great overproduction and accu- | jjon, “it has been ruined so many Mulation of stock in the whiskey times that it has become used to it; ~ ————— ———— it thrives upon it.” With the great American eagle above it and the Su- preme Court standing behind it to support it, and 54,000,000 of loyal hearts ready to fight for it, I am not anxious about theconstitntion. Adapt- ing itself to our growing power, our increasing wants, and our advancing civilization, it is destined to survive in transcendent vigor our fears and anxieties, and to exceed our most san- guine hopes. Again, I am one of those who be- lieve that the whisky trade is not one to be fostered or favored by our leg- islation. It is the great national waste and origin of our greatest national want. This traffic and its resultant evils constitute the great poisonous cesspoo! of American civilization. The eminent gentleman from IIli- nois, Mr. Morrison, who sits before me, in advecating this bill described this business as “a great industry,” “a valuable industry.”’” Mr. Chair- man, it is a great industry ; but it is the devil’s own industry! ‘The men who grow the corn, the men who dis- till the grain, the men who handle and carry it, as well as the men who vend and consume the product, are simply contributing to this great na- tional cesspool. It is “au industry” worse than wasted. Into this cess- pool are cast the life, health, fortune, reputation and hemes of hundreds of thousands of our people. There are mingled murder, debauchery, drunk- enness beastliness, and every crime. And the whisky ring fosters and pre- serves this cesspool tor the sake of a market. But we are told that it brings us revenue. That is true, and this reve- nue belongs to this Government now. If it is collected now, it is secure for the benefit of the whole people. If it is not collected now, it will never reach your ‘Treasury; it will never clink in your coffers. Mr. Willis. Why does my friend want to take revenue from such a dis- reputable source ? Mr. Hutcheon. I have not time to answer that question, Hire a hall and give me half a day and I will tell you. [Laughiter. } There are “millions in it.’ There is too much involved to make it safe to delay or tamper with it. A cor- ruption fund of 350,000,000 is some- thing that no honest government can afford to have lying around looee. “Repeal” is already the cry coming up from different directions—first from those who want cheap whisky ; and second, from those who want re- duced internal revenue. This cry will increase until the corruption fund wil triumph and whisky is free. But we are told our treasury is already over- flowing. It is true, and we need it to be tull. Ifthis Congress has tlie courage and manliness to do it, we will soun put this revenue in circula- tiun to geod purpese. 1. Let us attack the vast amount of illiteracy and ignorance aud con- sequent vice in the land by the en- couragement of national education. 2. Commence an American navy worthy of this Republic. 3. Improve, restrain, and control the Mississippi River until it shall cease to be a terror to those who dwell along its banks, and until it shall be- come by art, as it is by nature, the great vital artery of the Republic aad the great curb on evergrown monop- olies, 4. As this nation is, we hope, to be perpetual, let us begin now a system uf adequate public buildings until this Government cay conduct its own bus- iness under its own rvof in every town vf 10,000 population in the lind. 5. If there be still u surplus, then the coast defense and some fustering care of our merchant marine may claim a share. And last, but not least, provide more liberal pensions for the widows of those who fell in defending the na- tion’s life, and the maimed and crip- pled herees who still linger, incapable of competing in the strenuous race of life, In the language of the gentlemen from Colorado, “unlock the ‘Treasu- ry,” put its surplus wealth in circu- lation, to bless our country, through veeded and legitimate expenditures, and fill the channels of business. But no man and no party can gain either honor or success on the cry of “free whisky.” Let us have the courage which belongs to this hour and place, and staud up against this gigantic monopoly, this monstrous temptation to corruption, In the language of the distinguished Sena- tor-elect from Kentuky, Mr. Black- burn, ‘He wife dallies is a dastard, and he who doubts,” or dodges, “is damned.” [Laughter and aplause. ] ]This is the whisky extension bill referred te in our last paper.

The following will show what has been “tried and proved,” in the fertilizer way, on fine tobacco, and Major RaGianp, of Halifax county, Va., the great tobacco authority, and grower of pedigree tobacco seed, is the man who tells about it. If anybody knows what tobacco is he certainly does: “There are several brands of fertilizer manufactured specially for tobacco, differing in composition, price, and merit; and after repeated experiments with most, if not all the best, the author gives it as his decided opinion, that for fine, bright, silky tobaccc , OTHING EQUALS the ‘ANCHOR BRAND’ Tobacco Fertilizer, prepared by the Southern Fertilizing Company, Richmond, Na. And this opinion is based upen seventeen years’ trial, and often in competition with the best of other brands on the markct. It is a tried and proved fertilizer, which the plant- er can use without the risk of getting something unsuited to his crop; and therefore I can recommed it with confidence.” Messrs. Mathews & Williamson, of Reidsville, N.C., wrote the following to the Company, and state that they have sccn not]. ing since to change their judgment. “From our own personal experience, and it covers a long time, in watching the re- sults from the use of various brands of commercial fertilizers handled in this section, it is our mature judgment that the ‘ANCHOR BRAND’ stands at the head of all for the production of fine, silky, yellow tobacco. The plant seems to recelve more fitting nourishment from the use of this urticle than from any other, and we are of opinion that if our farmers made it their stand-by, we would hear less of light chaffy tobacco, having some color but no body, and that the farmer would realize the result he ought to enjoy from his labor; for low-grade tobacco will not bring big money.” Now we want you to bave “lig moncy” for your crop; because we not only desire you to make good bills with us, but pay for them when they are made; hence we han- dle the ‘Amehor Brand,’ and wil! supply you, in quantities to suit, direct from the factory.

With the growth uf niauufactures there has been a steady development of the railroad and the ag- ricultaral interests. The increase in pop- alatien, wealth, and all that goes to build up a civilized nation; in the North and West, has been one of the most stupen- dous wonders the world has ever witness- ed: Whatever may be our political opin- ious or party affiliatiuns, we are bound to admit that this marvellous develop- iuent has demonstrated beyond the shad- ow of a dbubt that a protective tariff has Ween 4 blessing to the North and West. Now, if this tariff has resulted in such xl to those sections, and the th is about to share in its great bene- fite, why shotild there be any in this sec- tion whe are willivg to sacrifice the fu- tare of their country, its growth and rosperity, simply that they may adhere f their idols of the past.— Manufacturers’ Record. A practical tariff has built up the vast manafacturing interests of the North and West, and those sections have indeed prospered and gtuwn wealthy more rap idly than the world had ever seen before. Aud while the protective tariff continues, the process of enriching the manufactu- rers goes on. But from what source do they gain this great wealth? From the consumers of the goods they manafac- tare: hats, shirting, cotton and woolen cleths, and all the ten thousand things which are required by men and wowmen, farmers, mechanics, professional men and southern mavufacturers. If the peo- ple had not been hindered—burdened— by a protective tariff, they coald have saved ove dollar out of every three which they have spent fur merchandise in the last 20 years by buying their goods from England, France aud Germany, but the ‘protective tariff” compelled them to bay from American manufacturers, who pock- eted one dollar out of every three to which they were only entitled by the operation of a protective tariff. A far= mer sells his crop for which be has toiled through a whole year. With the money in hand to pay for all he has need to pur- chase, he is met by the government who says to him: ory that men sell where they can get the * most, aud buy where they can buy the cheapest. But in the Uuited States the popular theory don’t hold good. If you buy from England, France, Germany or apywhiere else abroad, you wust pay into the United States Treasury one dol- lar out of evory three dollars thus ex- pended for the privilege of buying away from home. Or if you choose to buy at home. ove dollar eut of every three will go into the pockets of var home manufac- turers; for they are our wards, and under our “protective tariff,” they have grown immensely rich, aud’ the country they live in blooms and blossoms as the rose. It is nothing te the point to say that you are poor—thbat your lands are old and worn out, and that you ought to have the privilege of buying where you can bay cheapest. The government don’t stop to argue the case fur a moment, besides, you can’t help yourself —if you are oblig- ed to bay somewhere you are obliged to pay that extra dollar, whether it gocs in- to the Treasury or into the pockets of eur home manufacturers. The North aud West must be built up, and they have flourished under the protective tar— iff as vo other country was ever known todo. Buthow has it been with the Southern farmer? He is one of the men who are bound to pay that extra dollar. All the consumers of manufactured goods whether living in the north or south, must pay it; and thus it is that the man- ufacturers in the north and west have grown rich. A protective tariff has Leen and is, a glorious thing for the manufac- turers; but itis an outrageous robbery of people who are not manufacturers. oOo or Lynel Law. The Charlotte Observer recites the re- porta of two cases of lynching on Tues- day, oneat Rock Hill, S. C., and the other at Dallas, Gaston county, N.C. The case at Rock Hiil was the hanging ef Frank Elliott, colored, for raping a five year old child of a respectable citizen of York county. The child made its way to its fathers house and told what bad hap pened. The news quickly spread and the people turned out alwost enmuss to arrest the offender. He was brought Vefore a magistrate aud the crime proved upon him; and he was ordered to prison toawait trialinthe higher Court. On his way to prison the crowd, which had grown to be immense, closed around the prisoner, took him away frem the officer speeded him out of town to a convenient limb ef a tree on which they hanged him. No ove was disguised. The whole thing was open and in broad day light. The case in Dallas was the hanging of Erwin MeCullech, colored, for the mur- der of Thos. Wilson, a prominet young farmer of Gaston county, whose fount he was. The murder was committed more than a week before, and MeCulloeb was in jail awaiting trial, A disguised meb took him out Monday night and hung him te alimb of a trec, where he was found next morning swaying in the wind. There was a citizens’ meeting held at Dallas on Tuesday in which resolutions were adopted devouncing in strong terms, the couduct of the mob for hanging Mc- Callouch- nn Oe All onr delegates in Congress voted against the extension of the whisky bon- ded bill.

Brener wanted money, and there was a livery stable man in the city from whom he designed to get it, and concerted with one of the stable hands— a negro—to kill the proprieter and rob hits. They carried out the schenic—kill- ed the preprietor im ove of the atalis of the stable, and putting his body iu a wa- gon carried it some distance to a mill creek and dumped it into the water, where it was found the vext day. The negro was arrested ov suspicion, and in jail made a confession of the crime, im- plicating Brener as the author of the plan, and as co-operating with him. And on being arrested, Brener also made con- fession. Bat when the case cawe into court thg jury found him guilty—vot of marder, as they ought to have done— bat of manslaughter, and he was sep- tenced to the penitentiary for a ternt of years. This flagrant conduct on the part of the jury—alleged to be bribed—raised a spirit of indiguation in the city, and the incensed people turned out in bun- dreds to avenge the outraged laws. The mob got possession of an armory and a gun store; the military was called ont to suppress them ; firing soon commenced, and men were killed on both sides. The strife was kept up from day to day. At the end of three days it was estimated that at least twenty-five men had been killed and about 100 wounded, and quiet was restored. ‘The officials ran the pris— oner out of reach or it may be the fight- ing would bave continued. There is an important lesson to be learned from all this aud it appeals espe- cially to the serions attention of jndges, juries aud lawyers, We have no idea that people of Ciucionati are more law- leas than those of other tuwns and cities. Courts were instituted fur the enforce- ment of law and justice, and when they fail, as iv such a cese as this, they be- come the promoters of ciime inatead of Lhey outrage public rights aud the public sense in a manner to chal- lenge resisteuce to their decisions. The lesson Jies on the surface: ‘‘let justice be dove thongh the heavens shuuld full.” its avengers. ——— << e - - Tue StorM.—Laast Tuesday week was a stormy day. Storms prevailed in Il- inois, Kentucky and Indiana, as well as in this State. One village iu Indiana was completely destroyed. The greatest damage done in this State was in Cataw- ba county, where it is estimated an hun- dred houses were destroyed and two lives last. There were thirty houses wrecked in the town of alone, among them a large aud handsome Methodist church, 80 completely ruined as to be worthless in rebuilding. It will be seen by a letter from Mr. Wm, R. Fraley in this paper, that a number of citizens iv Scotch Irish township in this county, also suffered heavily in the loss of property. Mr. Fraley is teaching in that township and saw the storm in its passage gives a yivid description of its fury. Newton and ———_——__—————>- 0 oe They had a volcano excitement in Chester county, S.

[I soon discovered, however, that it was driviug south of me, and I stood my ground, and had a fall and clear view of it during a full mile of its progress. Mr. Philip Nelson was standing in his piazza, and doubtless had a cleaver view of it than any other person. He saw it as it emerged from the dense forest west of John W.

One day recently Barber met Mr. | Corder in Chester and remarked: “There ‘is agirl upin Hendersonville who is dead in love with me and wants me to marry her.” Mr. Corder then denouuced bim as a rascal for harboring such thouglits, and told him he bad better go to work and support his wife and chil- dren.

We want our customer to be a cheerful man, and it he has money in his purse he will be cheerful, but he can’t be if, when he comes to sell his crop, it brings him little or nothing. Everybody knows that on the fertilizer he nses, allowing the season to be at all favorable, depends the resnlt of his crop, and this being the case, he has no right to risk that crop on anything that has not been tried and proved. The following will show what has been “tried and proved,” in the fertilizer way, on tine tobacco, and Major RaGis»sxp, of Halifax county, Va, the great tobacco authority, and grower of pedigree tobacco seed, is the man who tells about it. If anybody snows what tobacco is he certainly does: ‘There are several brands of fertilizer manufactured specially for tobacco, differing in composition, price, and merit; and after repeated experiments with most, if not all the best. the author gives it as his decided opinion, that for fine, bright, silky tobaces OTHING EQUALS the ‘ANCHOR‘N?’ BRAND’ Tobacco Fertilizer, prepared by the Southern Fertilizing Company, Richmond, Na. And this opinion is based upon seventcen years’ trial, and often in competition with the best of other brands on the market. It is a tried and proved fertilizer, which the p!ant- ercan use withous the risk of getting something unsuited to his crop; and therefore I can recommed it with confidence.” Messrs. Mathews & Williamson, of Reidsville, N.

We don’t want people to abuse us about their fertilizer; we, therefore, sell only what time has shown to be the best.

That the science of the mind has not held that high place in the public it justly entitled, can hardly be denied. The cause of this is to be found partly in the nature of the science and_ partly in the practical tendency of the age. The dullest mind use in chemistry or botany or natural regard and estimation to which is can conceive some philosophy. They are of service in the analysis of soils and the comprehen- sion of the laws of mechayical and But mental no such application science sueh chemical forces. has no practical results to the careless eye.

We given more to action than to thought. As we pass from the observation and are study of the mineral to the form of vegetable life, from the plant to insect, and thence to the animal, and from im his various orders and classes, to man, the highest type of animal existence on the earth, we are conscious of | a pro- gression in the rank and dignity of that which we contemplate. But it is only when we turn our attention from all these to the that dwells within the man, and makes him master of this lower world, that we stand up- on the summit of elevation and over- look the wide field of previous enquiry. Toward this all other sciences lead. As the mineral, the plant, the insect, the animal in all their cunous and wonder- intelligence rior to man, so is the science of them, however important amd useful, subor- dinate to the science of man _ himself. Many of the most noble seiences are themselves the creations of the mind. The science of number and quantity, a a science leading to the most sublime man intellect.

Language is wonder- ful, but chiefly as a production and ex- | pression af thind. We admire the rich- ness, the eloquence, the exactness, the beauty of the Greek tongue, but where did these qualities exist, in the Greek language or in the Greek mind? The connection of mental science with other practical arts is much more intimate than is usually supposed. The physician finds in the practice of his profession that in order to success, the laws of the mind must constitue an important part of his stndy—how to avoid. and how to touch the secret springs of human actions. A word rightly spoken is often better than medicine. In order to comprehend the nature of disease he must under- stand the effect on the bodily organiza- tson of the due, and also of the undue exertions of each of the mental facul- ties. The public speaker, whether at the bar, in the public assembly, in the halls of the legislature, or in the pul- pit, finds that a knowledge of this sci- ence is indispensible. He must under- stand the laws and operations of the human mind, how to touch the bilities, how to awaken the passions. how to soothe the troubled spirits. Especially is this science of use to the teacher in the knowledge which it gives him of the mind of the pupil, and the skill in dealing with that mind. The mind of the pupil is to-him the instru- ment on which he is required to play- >_—- sensi- a curious instrument of many and strange keys and stops—capable of be- ing touched to wonderful harmony, and to fearful discord. To handle this instrument well is no ordinary acquire- ment. What shall we say of the man who knows nothing of the instrument, but noth- but on- only the music to be performed ing of the mind to be taught ly the knowledge to be communicated. To know the miud that is to be taught how to stimulate how to control, how to encourage, how to restrain, how to guide and direct its every movement and impulse is the first thing to learn and the key to all success in the school room. J. M. WEATHERLY. ~~ — The Theory of Tornadoes. What Causes These Terrors of the Atmosphere and how They are Foretold. The published an elaborate and original article from Professor Dupre, of Wef- Carolina Spartan has just ford College, on tornadoes, which we make the following extrates, il- canes and cyclones, from lustrative of the theory of tornadocs as accepted and applied by the Uni- ted States Signal Service : At Washington, telegrams are re- ceived daily from all parts of the Union, giving the barometic pressure at each station. The dispatches on the 19th of Jast Ftbruary said, that the barometer stood 7 a.m., at Savan- nah, 30.09; Charleston, 30.09; Spar- tanburg, 30.09; Charlotie, 30.10; Norfolk, 30.11; New York, 30.20; Toronto, 29.96. Here was enough informatien to show that all along the Atluntic coast wasan area of comparatively high pressure. At Morehead, Minnesota, the ba- rometer marked 30.05; Yankton, Da- kota, 30.12; Omaha, 29.94; Denver, Colordo, 30.16; Dodge City, Kansas, 30,07, Here was another high press- ure region. At Louisville the ba- rometer read 29.77; Chicago 29.47. This information .pointed to an area of low pressure somewhere in the Westera States. At Galveston the barometer stood 29.82; New Orleans, 29.86; Pensa- cola, 29.93; this indicated that the low pressure area was north of the Gulf States. All over the Lake re- gion the barometer stood quite low ; in some places 29.00. ‘This would at once with no further information, locate approx iumately,tbe area of low- est pressure. At Sts cia ee, barom- eter 29.55; Davenport, Towa, 29.48; Springfield, Illinois, 29.52 and Chi- cago, 29.47. Now we have, within a emall limit, the area of lowest press- ure, its loeation being between Chi- cago, Springfield, Davenport and Milwaukee; this is the valley or great basis of atmospheric depressien, around which, on every side, the pressure is great. As a necessary cousequetice the air will rush fram all quarters in upon this depression—aot in straight, direet lines towards the centree of low pressure, but in paths semewhat circular and spinal, proda- eing a vorticose motion. To understand this circular motion —the centre of low pressure—let us follow the direction of the wind from hurri- S | destruction just outside the limits of New Orleans, which is due south from this centre, The wind would. tend to rush due north in a straigth ; line, but the rotation of the earth at New Orleans towards the east is reater than at places farther north. | he winds therefore blowing from New Orleans would have an eastward | as well asa worthward tendency. Lakes and British possessions to- | wards the south, coming from regions where the rotation of the earthis less than from$those farther south, would | not move round as fast as the regions over which they pass, but would drag behind, falling towards the west. So it would be, to a less degree, with all points intermediate to these. Dune east or west from the centre, the ef- fects of the earth’s rutatien would be zere. This eastward and northward tendency of the southern winds, and the westward and southward tenden- ey ef the northern winds, would re- north, or as it is often expressed, in a direction “opposed to the hands of a watch,” or opposite to bering with a | gimlet. In order to ascertain at any time er place, in what general direc- tion the area of low pressure is, the following rule is given: Place your back to the wind and the area of low pressure or storm centre will be on your left. Of course for the South- ern hemisphere all this is reversed. At 2 p. m. on the afternoon ef the Walterboro’ tornado the thermometer at Savannah stood at 83°, at Charles- ton 72°, the wind southerly. This was on the southern side of the tor- nado, At Augusta the thermometer stood 65°, wind blowing from the vorth. Here then are the necessary conditions for tornado formation ; the air at Walterboro’ was hot and sultry; no motion whatever in the atmos- phere. Suddenly two clouds were seen approaching, one from the south- east, the other from the northwest and in anotber moment there was a rushing, rumbling sound like the ap- proach of many trains of cars; then trees, churches and dwelling houses were whirling and twisting from their foundations in the vortex of a migh- ty tornado. -At3p. m., on the 19th of last February, the contrast of tempera- ture over eastern Alabama and Geor- gia was very very remarkable. At Montgomery the thermometer was 75°, with a warm southwest wind; about twenty-five miles above Mont- gomery the thermometer was 75°; at Augusta the thermometer was 76°, Atlanta 66, Spartanburg 65. Spartanburg is scarcely more than one hundred miles ina ‘‘bee-line” from Augusta, yet there was a differ- ence of temperature between the two places that memerable afternoon of 11°. At Chappell’s, forty miles north of Augusta, the thermometer was ucar 70°—here a difference of 5°. And so these two belts of relatively coul and warm air were alongside of each other during durtng that after- naov, running from southwest to northeast. This abnormal] association could not remaip thus; there would instantly bea condensation of the warm, moist, southern current, the latent heat given off would accelerate the powerful upward movement, which constitutes the principal cur- rent of atornado,a whirling, spiral or vorticose motion would resuit (from causes explained in treating cyclones,) a high degree of rarification takitg place between the cloud and earth, and then a fearful rush of winds from the sides, causing much the whirling cloud or funnel. The falling aud rising of the stem of the funnel seems to be due to the greater or less rarifaction just alluded to; when this is great the chilling proda- ced will condense more moisture as fog or cloud; when itis less the luwer portion of the stem will be vaporized—so that the stem will ap- pear atone time to draw up intoa sheath, then again to protrude, ex- tending to the earth’s surface. The revolutions of the funnel may reach a speed of 200 or 300 miles per hour, the movement forward reaching in rare instances 50 or 60 miles per hour.

FENCES, he subject of fences, having, with the exee ption of ove township, adopted the ‘no fe ce or stock law; but we see the subject is engaging the attention of the ovens in other counties of the Staite, vre is very little doubt of the gen- tis) .doption of the law all over the Li, Co all of which we have only to ray, ©9 mote it be. pa! if farms iv the country are not en- -iosed and people living in towns are not sliowed to permit their eows, pigs and other live stock to run out, what is the use of fences in town, except so far as hey may be necessary to keep stock on he owners premises? Whatis the use ci strong and heavy front yard fences, fu instance? The premises would really ook better with very light and cheap ~ ve structures, er even with no fences! avcz'l. The Presbyterians are just now Liwurring pretty heavy expense to euclose 19 lots belonging to the church iu the u, and when considered that there is} ao ive stock allowed to run at large, the question as to the utility of the outlay comes up very naturally. New fences proposed canvet be necessary to keep cowé and bogs off the property, for the owners of such animals are bound to do that. They cannot be designed to keep cub rogues, for no such structures can ‘ro those who wish to depredate on p emises in the night time. They may ve of service around property which is tu ve used as grazing lots, but even in that Case two or three strands of nealed wire would answer the purpose and save the expense of rails, palings and nails and avoid the repairs which have to be made from time tu time to keep fences {u well ordered aud neat condition. Theo only purpose the usual fencing can an- swer is to satify the eye lung used to see grounds enclosed. This is a pleasure, to-be-sure, but is it worth all it costs? —_— oor or Disasters.

Other cars attached got off the rails and were more or less damaged. In Mecklenburg county, a Mill House and a negro church were blown down by the wind storm; and a citizen, who had been ploughing all day and was going home on his mule, was killed by a falling tree, blown down by the wind. Both man and muls were killed. > 2 o-Gi The State Chronicle says Mr. Edward Fasvach, of Raleigh, a practical silk grower of that city, isin correspondence with a prominent gentlemap ip Frauce iv relation to the establishment of ay im-— menee French colony in North Caroliva for the purpose of making wine and rais- ing silk.

Lands are cheap, water fine aud timber in plenty —a healthy and productive region. ———_—epeqpeeme— Our readers will remember seeing iu our last week’s paper a story about a drummer named Barber leaying his wife aud children and marrying a Miss Tate, with whom he had gone to ‘Texas.

It is a bloody protest against crime and criminals, against packed juries, inst the domination of ignorance and vice iu our political bodies, against the purchase ; of votes, against the corruption of the ballots, against the buying of the Jadges, against the betrayal by members of our legislative bedies of the trusts imposed ou them by the people.

Per. ley & Co., Danvers, Mass., we had a horse that became spavined during the first year of my stay with them, and remained 80 for four years, though we used every remedy we knew or could hear of but ‘no avail, Some time during the fifth year, (forl was in their employ between five and six years), we were recommended to try Kendall's Spavin Cure, and after using it two months the Horse was cured .the enlargement hav- ing been entirely removed, and thus believ- ing it to bea valuable medcine I fully re- commend it to all who have occassion to use it.

KENDALL Co., Gentlemen— Having bad an opportunity of seeing your “Treatise on the Horse” this Summer for the first time I was induced to try your Kendall's Spavin Cure on a valuable horse that had been lame since the first of April, from a bone Spavin. I had blistered it several times and concluded that my horse would never get over being lame. Five weeks ago to-day I commenced using Ker- dall’s Spavin Cure and after using it three weeks the lameness entirely disappeared. It has been worth $80.00 to me. H. H. Hovss. Mount Prairie, Minn., Sept. 24, 1883. Dr. B. J. Kenpatu Co., Gentlemen :— Last Spring I had a valuable young hors that from some cause got a very large lump about half way on his shoulder and was very lame for a long time. I had tlie best horse doctors examine her, some called it one thing some another, one said the shoul- der was broken but none could cure it. After I had tried the cure I went and bought one bottle of Kendall’s Spavin Cure, I did not use one half of it before it was all smooth and clean. Lameness all gone toe. As a horse liniment it is invaluable. Respectfully, ANDREW ORE. Tawas City, Mich., Sept. 1, 1883. Messrs B. J. KENDALL Co., Gentlemen:— Please send me a package of Prof Flints Condition Powders.

Ip his view the country should take notice of the reeeut decision of the Sa- preme court declaring that Congress can make a man take a piece of paper ip ex change for his property. In this we con- cur very fully with Mr. Bayard, for the framers of the constitution never con- templated the exercise of such a power by the Federal government and instead of vesting it in Congress gave the United States only the right to coin money. Nowhere is the right conferred to print money! And itis odd enough that the Supreme coart in order to tind a basis for its decision had to go abroad to the practice of the Kings and Emperors ot Europe—men who claim to rule by “Divine Right.” “Another point which Mr. Bayard brings out is the fearful tendency to con- svlidation, it being pow declared by Re- publican politicians that the Federal may need. ‘Phe synopsis of his remarks, show that the drift of his thoughts, and he evideutly believes thata great effort should be made to reform ment and preserve the union of the States —preseive it from the centralizing dau- gers that beset it.— Vew s- Observer. ~——_- Tariff Tinkers.

THURSDAY, APRIL 17, 1884. — The Waynesville News and Asheville Citisen give glowing accounts of the re- cent visit of Railrond officials, the Gov- -etnot,; and the R. R. Commissioners, to WaYNESVILLE. ‘The principal design of ithe excarsion was to give the R. R. Com- iwissioners ap opportunity to inspeet the last ten miles of the completed toad, which terminates at Waynesville; but it was also made the occasion of a grand gathering of the mountaineers to rejoice at the consamation of a work upon which they had at one time looked as almost hopeless. Waynesville is now in rail- read connection with the world, and thoae best acquainted with that part of the mountain section pedict for it a bril- liant futare, The party alluded to entered Waynes ville fn a special car. Presents Col. A. B. Andrews, Presideut of the read; Gov. darvis, Dr. Worth, State Treasurer, Col, A. 8. Buford, S. H. Wiley, J. bE. Rankir, Maj. J. W. Wilson, S. McD. Tate, F. Busbee and B. F. Arendell, of Raleigh. Gov. Vance, a member of the Commis-— sion, joined the party at Asheville the next day, and went back over the road for inspection. The News says Tuesday was the big- gest day ever had at Waynesville. There were about three thousand people in at- tendance. Cov. Jarvis, Col. Andrews, Col. Buford, Lt. Gov. Robinson, Busbee, Treasurer Worth—every man who could talk—was called on for a speech, and they responded briefly, of course. Dr. Worth rather took the preminw: He said evough had been said of the present, and he would any a few words for the future. He did not wish to tell the peo- ple how they should vete next fall, but he woald say he thought ‘‘they had about as good a State Treasurer as they could get.” After speeches came a big dinver, and after dinner came toasts, aud a free and eusy time generally. Gov. Vance made a speech there on Wednesdays, on national polities. >_> It will be remembered that about 125 mivers lost their lives by an explosiou in the Pocahontas coal. mine in Virginia, about a month ago, and that the mine took fire aud had to be flooded with wa- ter tu put out the fire. The proprietors have just reached the point of recovering the dead bodies of the men lost by the explosion. Only six out of the many yet fonud und sent up have Leen recognized by their friends, and they only by their clothing or some article found in their pockets. The bodies are shockingly mu- tilated. Some were found with picks iv their hands, and one man with his dinner backet, showing that death was instauta- neous. A large and serrowful crowd of men and women are witnessing the re- moval of the bodies. rr ie It is a significant fact that there were more lynchings last year than legal exe- cutions, and from present appearances there will be more this year. It will not be a great while before Judges and jurors will be made to feel very insecure when they fail to meet public expectation iv Teapect tothe trial of criminals. The recent storm of passion in Cincinnati was directed agaivst lawyeis, Judge and jurors. The Legislatures of the States ought to lose no time in reviewing and re-moddeling their systems of criminal jurisprudence and practice, and the pub-— lic assured that speedy justice will cer- tainly fall on the guilty. Better tighten up against offenders than to leave them at the mercy of lynchers until lynching becomes the rule and legally admiuvis- tered laws the exception. ——- ~~ The Raleigh News speaking of Atlanta, brings out some facts not generally con- sidered, though apparent to all who stop to think of it, thus: “With no local ad- vantages except the mere fact that sever- al railroads cross each other within her limits, * * she grows and prespers beyond the power of any of her southern rivals. ‘The secret is not hard to find. Her peeple realize that push and vim are the basis of success. * * Grass does not grow under their feet. They never forget that werk pays.” The News may be counted a little figurative when it says: “Children come into the world there ery.ing ‘Hurrah for Atlanta,’ but there is no disputing the fact that her business people are plucky and in eurn- est om all questions relating to her ad- vancdment and growth. ee Food adlulterations is concerning the people of some of ongeities, and it should also concern connéry people.

We clip the following extract from an editorial in the Stateville American of last week: In the House—twhich 1s overwhelming- ly Democratic—on Just Monday, (April 7th) Mr. Thompson, of Kentucky, weved to suspend the rules and adopt a resolu- tion declaring it unwise and inexpedient for the present Congress to abolish or re- duce the tax on spirits distilled from grain, The Hon. Tyre York, the Liber- al Representative from North Carolina, alovue of the delegation from this State, opposed in a ringing speech the resolu- tion of Mr. Thompson, and emphatically declared that be was in favor of the im- mediate and entire abolition of the interval revenue. The other Representatives from this State who had been so loud- mouthed in their opposition to the inter- pal revenue, and suv profuse of promise while soliciting votes in the last cam- paign, were silent and dumb when the question came up for discussion and ac- tion. There are some slight inaccuracies in this statemeut, to which perhaps it wight be well to call attention. Instead of all “the other representatives from this State being silent and dumb” upon that resolution, the leading speech in opposi- tion to it was made by Gen. Cox, who was followed by York, and instead of the North Carolina delegation taking no in- terest in it, they voted solid against it. So Dr. York did not oppose it alone. With these corrections the statement may be permitted to pass. Of the thir- that resolution pearly all were from the South aud were had no support worth speaking of from the Repablicaus, Charlotte Observer. —-——>- —_—~_____ There is food for thought in the pre- amble and resolutions adopted by the meeting of celored citizens held in this place last Monday night. They denounce the present system of county government. Of course. It was framed for the protec- tion of eastern whites.

They Bay the courts do uot give them justice and there is a political despotism in this county, though they do not say who the despot is. They complain because the whites do not do more for their education when the whites are paying seven-eighths of the taxes and many ef them are not able to educate their own children; and finally they arraign the Republican party for ite treatment of them. They will go on voting the Republican ticket, never- theless, till the day they die, and their resolutions will not bulldoze their bosses nor affect Democrats any more kindly toward them. By the way, the Federal } Court meets here week after next, and they should bring to its attention the of fencea which they allege have been com- mitted against the ballot.—Statesrille Landmark. ty-three votes aguiust cast by Democrats.

KENDALL Co., Gentlemes— Having had an opportunity of seeing your “Treatise on the Horse” this Summer for the first time I was induced to try your Kendall’s Spavin Cure on a valuable horse that had been lame since the first of April, from a bone Spavin. I had blistered it several times and concluded that my horse would never get over being lame. Five weeks ago to-day I commenced using Kea: dall’s Spavin Cure and after using it three wecks the lameness entirely disappeared. It has been worth $80.00 to me. H. H. Howse. Mount Prairie, Minn., Sept. 24, 1883. Dr. B. J. Kexpauut Co., Gentlemen:— Last Spring I had a valuable young horse that from some cause got a very large lump about half way on his shoulder and was very lame fora long time. I had the best horse doctors examine her, sowe called it one thing some another, one said the shoul- der was broken but none could cure it. After I had tried the cure I went and bought one bottle of Kendall’s Spavin Cure, I did not use one half of it before it was all smooth and clean. Lameness al! gone toe.

Well, we think there is DO reem for coustruction, since the plain words of section 8 or the Act under discussion leaves it out of the question, But as he has singled out seetiou 9 with out reference to section 8, we will state on the (standard) authority of Theodore Sedgwick, author of a Treatise on Statu- tory and Constitutional Law, &c., that; “It is well settled, that in construing a | doubful act and for the parpose ef arriv- ing at the legislative intent, all acts (or parts ef acts) on the same subject-matter are to be taken together avd examiued, [in order to arrive at the true result. “All jacts iu PARI MATERIA,” said Lord Mans- | field, ‘tare to be taken together, as if they iwere one law.” “Where,” he said on janother occasion, “there are different statut sin pari materia, though made at different times, oreven expired, and | hot referring to each other, they shall be }taken and = construed together as one | system, and explanatory of each other.” Then, in order to arrive at a correct conclusion, it is eminently proper to | consider section 8, a8 it is an essential | part of the act. Here it is: | Sec. 8. That a poll shall be opened on [the first Monday in May, 1883, at the | ususual polling place in the town, when jand where all qualified voters residing within the corporate limits shall be en- | titled te vote. ; All persons who shall be in favor of issuing the bonds pievided tor in the tirst and 2d sections of this act, may vote on @ written or printed ticket, ‘‘for bonds,” and all persons who shall be opposed to the issue of said bonds, may vote ona Written or printed ticket, “against bonds:” and if a wajority of the qualified voters }shall vote “fer bonds,” then the provis- j ions of this act shall take effect and be in force from and atter the first day of May | 138283.” In case a majority cf the qualified voters shall vote for bonds, then the Provistons of this Act siall take effect, j&e. What Provisions? Why the first, ) second, third, fourth, titth, sixth, seventh, ‘aud ninth sections or provisious of this Act, and no one to the exclusion of the others. If the viuth section is in force, | then are all the others, for they are | ip pari materia, and there is just as much | reason for saying section Y is in force. | But it must be conceded that the remain- ing sections, one, two, three, feur, tive, }siX,and seven are not iu force, because | of the adverse result of the election. |} Thetenth section is a mere matter of Iform aud is add «dito all bil's. It pre- ;Vides that “this act shall take effect }from and after its” ratification.” It is | worth while to votice that this conclu- jding section says “this act,” not the }Dinth section or provision, “shall take |} effect,” &c., and therefore, if section 9 is |in force, so is tire whole act. This con- | clusion is irresistible. | While this seems true, aud sheuld the coming matter ever go to the Supreme Court for | autly. a final decision, it will probably sustain the Hraminer’s argument, yet is it not best that the municipal authorities shoulg hold over twe, or even four years.

Steelei] Many years ogo, when sulkeys and gigs aud buggies and wagons and the horse were the only means cf trans- portation along the highways, road- side inus were much more common than they new are; and occasionally one was to be found which afforded the weary traveler genuine refresh- ment and repose after the toilsome journey of the day. Such a stopping place as I have described was situa- ted on the east bank of a stream call- ed Qu- Whiffle, in the county of Cum- berland, and thirty miles west of Fayetteville, which was, for a long while the market town of a large por- tion of the western part of this State. Since that time, by reasou of the con- struction of radlroads, a very consid- erable part of the trade which that | place once controlled las been diver- ‘ted to) other marts, though the town is still in somewhat thriving condi- tion, The house to which I refer was made of pine logs, nicely hewed, was lof one story in height, had a small piazza on the south side, at one end vf which wasa “shed rvom,” about ten feet square, and in the rear a large one extending the whole length of the house. Its only chimney was made of STATIONERY, B ISORDERE . and MALARIA. From thezo sources arise threc-fourths of the discases of the human reec._ Theso m ptoms indicate thetrexistence : Loses ef - petite, Bowels costive, Sick Head- ache, fullness after cating, oversion to exertion of body or miad, Eructetion of food, Irritability of temper, Low spirits, A feeling of having neglected some dety, Dizziness, Fluttcring at tho Heart, Dots before the eyes, highly col« ored Urine, CONSTIPATION, an: de- mand the use of a remedy that acta divcet) onthe Liver, AsaLiver mediciuc TUTT’ PILLS havo noejual.

All the | dering the use ef other lights entirely | aa game on a pole for several miles, aud would proceed to dress it before going to bed, you would re-enter the house. The old man would take a seat near his window, open the broad shutters, take a knot, throw it on the fire, and make the room “more cheerful and more bright.” The old lady would come in, and William would help his mother set up a folding table in the middle of the room, upon a_ floor well sprinkled with clean white sand. She would go toa chest, take outa clean cotton table cover and nicely spread it. Then she would go to the cupboard, take the plates, cups and saucers, knives and forks, and put them in their appropriate places. Lastly she would take a smal! waiter and put it at one end, and into this her sugar dish avd cream bowl and teaspoons. Very shortly thereafter one of the negro girls would come in bearing a plate of biscuit and a dish of fried chicken. Retiring, she would soon return with a dish of broiled vension and some turkev steak. Mrs. L. would -finish up with the coffee pot and plate of fresh butter. You would then be very quietly told that if you wanted anything to eat, the chance had come for you to get it. It is probable enough that you would want no second suggestion, and pro- ceed to business without further cere- mony. That coffee was not to be sur- passed anywhere, in any French cafe; those biscuit were light and nicely browned ; that chicken was past all praise—tor be it known that a young fowl cooked before the life heat has and flavor; that. vension is good enough fur poor mortals; that turkey steak is absolutely paridisean in deli- cacy and richness, and that butter is fresh from the churo.

Pretty soon, you have intimations that breakfast is approaching—for about an hour before you had smelt the odor of parching coffee, and seon thereafter heard the sound of the little coffee mill which was crushing the fragrant oriental berry. The old lady always prepared her coffee afier the arrival of herguests, and hence it was al- ways fresh. The table would show the same bill of fare which you had tried the night befere, with the ad- eggs without the ham. When you indicated ycur wish to leave, your horse was brought out, harnessed and hitched to the vehicle, the baggage stowed away, and you make the usual inquiry as to the “damage” which you have inflicted. To your astonishment you are told that seventy-five cents is ample remuneration for all the servi- ces which they have rendered for yuur accommodation. After your de- parture, other wayfarers,&s you were, will take your place, and meet with the same hearty but unpretentious treatment ; and they and you and all that preceded you, will sincerely wish that they may ever fare so well, The recollection of the turkey steak, made from the breast of a wild gobbler, will be one of the “memories of joys that are past, pleasant, but mournful to the suul.” Ihave said that the house had no adornments. It had none. The out- side wus destitute of attraction, and only those who knew the character of the inmates would ever, from choice, have made that house a stopping place. Its recommendation lay with- Like the leaden casket of Portia, which “rather threatened than did prouise anght,’ it contained the “counterfeit” of loveliness and sim- plicity.

Or, if so | inclined, you might walk about the | premises and see nailed up on posts, | S¥eetly, even now, after mgre than jor the sides of | a house, some troph- ies of the venatorial skill of the lord jof the pine barrens—the antlers of }many atack which be and William had brought down by the aid of their iguns. Just before dark, or between sundown and that time, you would | hear the squall of one or more chick- jens, and have your olfactories regaled | with the aroma of reasting coffe, | would come in and throw a few Tom ; pine knots—“lighterd,” as usually called —upon the fire, and soon the blazing brands would fill the room with | light and heat. After a time, the quiet voices of Uncle Daniel and Wil- jliam would be heard just outside of ithe house, and in they would come, | dressed in woellen hunting shirts of brownish color, set their guns up in ithe corner, hang their shotbags upon ithe ramrods, give you a gentle grasp | of the hand, and then seat themselves |'n split-bottomed chairs. You would cask what luck they had had, and the old man would tell you that they suc- jceeded in getting a deer and a gob- feet Of course, you would want to see the game.

No avarice dried up | Polly can stand it, he thinks you dote and a profusion of quict humor, He will tell you of his huuting ex- periences : and if you will ask him how many deer he has killed in all cluding the one he got to-day, the As to tur- keys he is not so positive, but enough to give every family in’ Comberland county a nice oue tar Christmas and New Year’s dinuers. In that day we had no Thanksgiving dinners; for we had no Thanksgiving day known to our law, No doubt we were quite as grateful for Almighty benelictions is Weare now; though we did not make quite so much public parade of the fact. That old man was one of the salt of theearth. He knew nothing of conventional or fashionable life. He vuever saw a railroad nor a steamship. He had read but few books besides He knew how to be hon- the fountain of his soul—no maligui- ty, nor envy, nor hatred put gall and wormwood in his heart. Aud that vld woman, who for forty years— neither loug nor weary ones with he —had made herself happy, by doing her duty in the “lowly train of life’s sequestered scene,” as became a wife and mother, was really one of the best of the sex. To her, Mr. Love and William were the chief objects of her earthly idolatry, Her boy —for boy he always was in her eyes—was, to his pareats, ever loving and true. Though the old folks are “dead and gone,” William lives there still, mar- ried but childless, and when he “shuf. fles off this mortal coil,” the Jast of the race will have departed. Whiie you and Unele Daniel and William are talking, that good old woman is deftly using her knitting needles upon a pair of yarn socks for the comfort of her husband or son— the wool clipped by them, washed and carded and spun by her. Oh, how thirty years have passed “Over me, whitening my locks, and furrowing iny cheek, does that maternal smile of Aunt Polly dwell in the house of my memory ! After you have conversed until your feelings are in full accord with the indications of your watch, Uncle Dan- iei_ will tell you that there are two beds in the east end of the room, and you can take which one of them you cheose. If you show by your con- duct that your modesty is likely to be sorely tried, he will suggest that if might be ableto doso, And then, the old woman may go out, but will come back after you have thrown the protecting blankets over you, and will knit away, until you have lost all seuse of your earthly surroundings. In the morning when you wake, after a night of healthful repose, refreshed and strong, you will see her quickly moving about the fire. If she notices that you are awake she will express her sincere wish that you have had a| good night. And then she glides jor to the stranger, out of the room, you get up, and put on your clothes (they call it “dress” | these days) and sit abont the fire, which somebody has made while you were asleep. In a feW minutes Uncle Daniel and illiam come iu, and you learn fro: for something more profitable to do.

When traveling on public or private business, or for mere pleasure, I have availed nyselfuf the hospitality of this plain) dwelling and enjoyed the food and lodgings which it always afforded as wellas the kind bearted and sensi- ble conversation of the occupants. — I have joined the old man and William more than ounce ena deer hunt and sat around the same canmp-fire, with others, who have since been carried across the river of time and I tru-t are how with the biest. On these and oth- er occasions the father and the son were true meu—gentlemen—fit for the association of all persons who mis- take not fine apparel and well chosen language for the higher and nobler characteristics of the heart. When | first metthem ona hunt I had a small shotgun, 15 gange and 30 inches long, Weighing about seven pounds. Their ideas of a deer weapon being a musket of about ten bore in size, four feet in length and teu or twelve pounds in weight, they looked with feelings of contempt upon ny little gun, and regarded it as only fit for sparrows and snowbirds, or possibly a squirrel, if perched upon the lower limbs of a black jack. But after J lad demonstrated its power by bring- ing down a fine buck they admitted that it might kill if the deer was at close fange, but never could such a guy as that do the duty of “Old Bet- sey” in securing the skins of more than one thousand. In that day, and for years before, the section to which I refer abounded in deer, It was poor and sparsely settled, and intersected with streams having wide swamps, which afforded food and shelter for these game ani- mals. The forests of the long-leaved pines were then undisturbed by the demand for naval stores. Now the turpentine getter has visited nearly every one,sacrificed the trees, made the woods resound with his axe, and by this means, quite as much as any other, the deer have been forced to seek a more quiet retreat. A few are still left and when the trees are “worked up” and stillness again comes, it may be ex- pected that numbers will return and again inhabit the waste places. But Uncle Daniel, having “served his day and generation,” las paased away nev- er toreturn: Aunt Polly—for in her day we had no Mullies, Bessies, Sallies —has long since gone to the shadow land, and few are left who equal and and none who surpass their virtues, —_—_ ee ea Curar Iron.—The Louisville Courier Journal announces that a contract has recently been made between Tennessee parties for the delivery of $2,000,000 worth of pig iron at from $10.50 to $12.50 per ton ow the cars. Ifsuch things can be done in Tennessee it ought to set our pig iron makers in Pennsylvania to think- ing. The pauper labor of Europe cannot be made to produce ireu and lay it down at our doors as cheaply as these Southern iron makers.

If the goods are manufactured in this country, not one cent reaches the treasury. It is simply $79 taken by law frow the man who buys $61 worth of clothes and given to the man who makes cloth. abroad, $79 goes to a treasury which does not need it. In either case the purchaser of the clothes gets absolutely nothing for the $79 of the $140 which he spends. If on buyiag the clothes he had to pay $61 to the clothier, and $79 di- rectly to the tax collector, how long would he stand such extortion ? In result there is not a particle of difference between that system and the present tariff system according to which he is thus unnecessarily and exorbitantly taxed, not only in hig clothing but on nearly every other necessity of life. How long will the people ef a coun- try which claims to be free submit to this legalized robbery, which those who uphold it, and grow fat upon it, are pleased to call a “protective” tar- iff ? _ a ae ae When a pack of negroes gather to- gether inthe Court House of this county in a political meeting, and abuse the white people who pay about all the taxes for the education of the negroes and for their mainten- ance in the charitable institutions of the State, it proves that they have precious little gratitude or even sense of propriety. The colored popu- lation does not pay a one-hundreth part of the taxes for the support} of our City Graded Schools or the Pub- lic Schodls of the county, yet they abuse and slander the whites who do pay them. Their behaviour shows an impudence and virulence that is inex- cusable. Their disgraceful conduct ing political mecting in this city on Saturday last shows that they are unfit to hold office or for self-gevern- ment.

Per- ley & Co., Danvers, Mass., we had a horse that became spavined during the first year of my stay with them, and remained so for four years, though we used every remedy we knew or could hear of but no avail. Some time during the fifth year, (for I was in their employ between five and six years), we were recommended to try Kendall’s Spavin Cure, and after using it two months the Ilorse was cured the enlargement hav- ing been entirely removed, and thus beliey- ing it to bea valuable medcine I fully re- | commend it to all who have occassion to use it. Respectfally, PO He Lyons: KENDALL'S SPAVIN CURE. Fremont, Ohio, Sept. 24, 1883. Dr. B. J. KENDALL Co., Gentlemen — Having had an opportunity of seeing your “Treatise on the Horse” this Summer for the first time I was induced to try your Kendall's Spavin Cure on a valuable horse that had been lame since the first of April, froma bone Spavin. I had blistered it several times and concluded that my horse would never get over being lame. Five wecks ago to-day I commenced using Ken- dall’s Spavin Cure and after using it three weeks the lameness entirely disappeared. It has been worth $80.00 to me. H, H. House. Mount Prairie, Minn., Sept. 24, 1883. Dr. B. J. Krnpati Co., Gentlemen :— Last Spring Thad a valuable young horse that frou. some cause got a very large lump about half way on his shoulder and was very lame fora long time. I had the best horse doctors examine her, some called it ; one thing some another, one said the shoul- der was broken but none could cure it. After I had tried the cure I went and bought one bottle of Kendall's Spavin Cure, I did not use one half of it before it was all smooth and clean. Lameness all gone tow. As a horse liniment it is invaluable. Respectfully, ANDREW ORR. Tawas City, Mich., Sept. 1, 1883. Messrs B. J. KENDALL Co., Gentlemen:-— Pleasc send me a package of Prof Flints Condition Powders.

Inst. ——_- ~~ —-— | The Taacher’s Preparation. } , Many teachers will spend an hour studying to know a lesson—say in |arithmetic, but give not a moment to | studying the art of teaching the pupil | when that lesson comes up. He trusts to ‘luck, to inspiration, to anything. | This accustoms him to admitting that | teaching amounts to little; and when \this point is reached, that teacher's | downward coutse is sure. The teacher should strive against this. He should study the the lesson with reference to presenting the matter to his pupils. | One of the best examples to illus- country and proceeded to lecture be- fore the American public. They heard ter may be good, but his mode of _ pre- renting itis bad.” Mr. Arnold put | himself in the hands of those who knew more about the art of speaking than he did, and it was soon seen that he was a better speaker. His mistake was that he over-estimated the matter, senting it; a fault of many teachers. Selected. ee present school law is one that will pro- vide for a uniform system of licensing teachers all over the State. The grant- ing of certificates to teachers has a three-fold purpose; (1) to guard against the employment of persons who are in- compent to teach; (2) to stimulate teachers to improve themselves and ob- tain a higher grade; and (3) to form a basis for determining the salaries of teachers. A higher standard of exami- nations should be provided for, and every County Superintendent in the State should be compelled to keep strictly up to this standard, A certifi- cate, would then be worth something, not only in the county where it was obtained, but everywhere in the State, and even outside of the State. The basis for granting certificates should be not only proficiency in the branches taught in our schools, but special _fit- ness for the business of teaching. A third grade teacher (as it now stands, ) who has special adaptability for impart- ing the stock of knowledge he is mas- ter of is fully as efficient in the school- room as the first grade man who does not know how to teach: This fact should be fully recognized, and every teacher should be made to act upon it. Normal Schools where Teaching may be learned, are within reach of all; and to supplement these we have our Insti- tutes and Teachers’ Associations. Communication, From RowanSchoe!lTimes. The Times comes regularly and is read with no little delight. It brings pleasant reminiscences with it. Long may it live, prosper and increase in use- fulness. Now one or two thoughts. The edu- cational interests gf Rowan are not suffering for lack of attention. Her scholars are at the helm and her teach- ers are making every exertion to quali- fy themselves for their work. Their motto is “upward and onward.” The and under-estimated the art of pre- A BADLY NEEDED AMENDMENT to our Seas: =. clothed in living} Guinea hens keep Lawks away. | ‘ fesh” are in store for them. ‘The high They are’ noisey birds. © Worse than] falling into situation altogether uncomfortable. Good, sound, solid and thorough work is rapidly becoming the watchword. May the ball now in motion continte to roll. Our teachers, at least many of them, are watching the tide of affairs. They are looking into the distance. They imagine, that a little improve- ment could be made. Too much, how- There is one, that might, for the sake of illustration, be mentioned. In these remarks a preference for this man or that one does, not into enter the ques- tion. No reflections are cast, certainly none are intended. The office of coun- ty Superintendent is avery high and noble one. “The teacher is next to the preacher” has fallen from many a lip. Admit the truth of this statement and where is the place of County Superin- tendent of Public Instruction: He must be in very close proximity. The Bishop of a diocese is not farther from the Throne than the parish minister. In the eyes of the world he is a grade higher and therefore a step near- er. Where is the inconsistency, if the same be said of the County Superinten- dent of Public Instruction? He is em- phatically a teacher of teachers. No disposition to make the teacher take rank with the true minister of Christ. He is by no means a preacher of the gospel, sti]l, his work is none the less important and his responsibility great. But to the point. Ought not the two county boards exercise great caution in their elections? Is it wise for any one to offer himself as a candidate, much less seek a vote? Is this not trifling too much and is it not calculated rather to degrade than elevate a noble cause? Is it wise either directly or indirectly for any one to announce himself in the public prints? Why not allow the County Board of Education to put for- ward a man? They have the very best opportunity either of knowing or find- ing out suitable men. The question is this: Should the man seek the office or the office the man? Another elec- tion is upproaching and it behooves the LAMBDA. See What won a Soldier’s Suit.

Spencer, told the following story ; cross-examined usual forcible way. ‘You loaned him asked. ‘I did, sir.’ ‘It was your own money ?’ ‘It was sir.’ ‘When did you lend the money?’ ‘In July, 1866.’ ‘Where did you get that money sir?’ ‘T earned it, sir’ ‘You earned it, el? When did you earn it ?’ ‘During the war, sir,’ he said, iu a very humble tone, ‘You earned it during the war? Pray what was your occupation during the war?’ Mr. James inquired. ‘Fighting, sir,’ the wan replied. ‘Oh, fighting? Mr. James said, somewhat taken down. ‘I smiled triumphantly, James was half mad. Well, we want to the jury ; and J, of course, had” the last tosay. I sailed away up to glory.

C., | Towards Trieste, Austria. | I shall always remember with de- i light that I was once the means of [making an Azorean perspire. One beautiful bright Sunday morning in August we were lying becalmed be- ‘tween the islands of Corvo and | Flores, the most northwesterly of | the group. We were ona long wear- | isome voyage, and the sight of these beantiful green islands sleeping on the bright blue waters was indeed refreshing to the eyes. When men have been revelling on sait horse and wrought iron biscuit for ninety days or so, they yearn for something more substantial than a feast of the optics. The knowledge that these ocean gems abounded in tropical fruits without being able to do anything more than lie off eight miles in the brviling sun and look at them was rather too much after the Tantalus style to be endured. Accordingly, in the hope of attracting a bum-boat, I set our colors, forgetful of the international maritime regulation which prohibits vessels showing their colors when off a port unless desiring official assis- tance. Shortly after hoisting our fliy we discovered through our glusses, a tiny beat pull off from Flores and head towards us. We rejeiced in our hearts and “got away with” a quan- tity of fruit in our imagination, Af- ter two or three hours had elapsed I was summoned on deck by the an- nouncement that the boat was along- side. I went, stecling my heart for an exciting argument with the supposed pomological pedlers over the value of their merchandise, which I knew would be exorbitant on account of the exertion which they had been obliged to make to reach us. Imagine my surprise when I found, cloud which men e:ll night. Now the | modest island unveils itself and, like the coqnetish Senoritas who dwell ‘among its hills and dales, comes shy- |ly forth in the mystic glouming to meet the admiring gaze of strangers. i Its voleanic origio is clearly evidenc- ed by the jagged and and serrated ap- pearance of its mountains, This harsh | feature is effectually toned down by its high state of cultivation. The whole island is tesselated with geo- metrically precise green fields, eaeh surrounded by a wall of lava, like au lenormous mosaic of emerald and jet. | The island rises in abrupt precipices \from the water and over these fall numerous cascades, which from this distance look like sikver threads ‘shimmering io the last rays of the ‘sinking sun. In the east end of is- land rises the symmetrical cone of Pico de Passo 3040 feet high. There is a range of mountains running in a westerly direction and terminating near the centre of the island, called | Serra Agoa de Pao, 2700 feet high— then a stretch of low, fertile plain, ‘and on the extreme western end a group of mountains ranging from | 2000 to 2770 feet. Pico de Cruz, | forming au amphitheatre, in the midst of which two miles distant from the ;sea and 1800 feet above it, lies Lagoa |Grand, crystal clear, and unfathoma- i bly deep. The whole island is rent | by those frightful convulsions thro | which it has passed into deep chasms ur canons, on the sides of some of 'which the black, rugged Java is still exposed. In the bottoms of these narrow valleys nestle numerous little white houses, from many of which now arise thin spirals of blue smoke | which indicate that the humble Por- tugee is preparing his frugal evening meal of fricassed garlic and castor oil soup. With the last rays of the sun a gen- 1 tle breeze arose and we must hasten away. Darkness as thick and black | as “free luuch coffee” has fallen from ‘the wings of night and the island lies | ‘outlined against the sky like a Titan- lic silhonette. Nota light is visible except the faithful Jight-house on | Cape Arnel which sends its clear i beams far out tous in the darkness which broods over the face of nature’s capricious child, (10 be Continued.)

The payment into the State Treas- ury ef $600,000 for the State’s inter- est inthe Western North Carolina Railroad, relieves tax-payers from the payment of any State tax this year. Is not that something to the credit of a Democratic administration? Is not Gov. Jarvis entitled, along with those who eo-operated with him, to the gratitude and confidence of the peo- ple for good management?

After a great deal of puffing ity, this brass-b: und official gained English, with much irascibility, what we wanted. J replied, that about the only thing I yearned for at that mo- ment was a fair wind, “Fah weend!” he said excitedly, “Santa Maria madse del Jesu! Is that all you want? Why did you raise your flag ?” he inquired. It would never do to confers my real liable to prosecution for making un- necessary signals. Hermes came to my rescue, and I told the perspiring Lusian that the Jawa of my country obliged me to set my colors every Sunday whether in port or at sea. Then he became very much agitated and said some very about maritime laws of Denmark and the sauciness of sea-faring Americans. He went, but he was the warmest, madest Portugues that I ever had the pleasure of conversing with. He left a strong odor of profanity in his wake and for a long time the sound of his wrath came floating back jn which the only distinguishable word was “gran diablo,” which has led me to suppose that this word meant American, as he was evidently refering to me, It is evening and the fleecy clouds whieh all day long have hung so lovingly over the island screening it from the gaze of the curious, have re- linquished their charge, and floated off on the wings of the evening wind giving place to that vast, sombre and blowing, and Portuguese profan- | the deck, and when he had regained | his breath he inquired in mutilated | motive, as I would then lay myself strong things | | And yet, despite this affluence of} | food resources, the boast and the bless- ling of our country, there is no reason | why another item should not be add- | led to the list. Especially when the item is one so palatable, so whole | some, and nutritious as is the grape— a fruit cheap to raise, very prolific, and capable of imapy uses, It has becn asserted that a@fan can live and work on a diet of bread and grapes quite as well as on bread and meat. And it is stid that in parts of Spain ‘Italy and France, the peasantry, for a part’of the year, subsist almost wholly on grapes and bread, and that those who do so live are noted fer their froedom from scrofula and con- sumption. | ‘Luis example is cited to show what the grape is capable of, rather than to persuade people to leave their meat ldiet fur one of grapes. Though we doubt that if they would do so toa certain extent, they would not only be healthier but richer and happier. From the ripe grape, through all the various furms ef dried, preserved, canned, cordialed, jellied and jammed, this fruit is a wholesome and ever- welcome food, And if one does not choose to make of them wines and cor- dials, still there are ways enough of preparing them for use to leave no excuse for lack of variety, or fer not having always on hand some accepta- ble article of dessert. As then the grape is so useful aud valuable as fuod, and as it can be grown here in any quantity with as much ease as the potato or cabbage, we trust the day is not far distant when its cultivation will become gen- eral, not only for home use, but for market. Even the city dweller on j the most confined quarters may have a few vines, and the svapsuds and bill in the start against agitation of that question at this time.

The chief engineer of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Company, says the Char- lotte Observer, has about completed the survey of the road between Asheville, N. C., aud Roanoke, Va., and the first step in the proposed new railroad bas been taken, confirming the rumor that the Central, Railroad of Georgia is endeavor- ing to get a line of its own te the North aud Northwest. The survey of the new air line from Stauntan, the present ter- minus of the Valley Braneh of the Balti- more & Ohio Railroad, te Roanoke, where the Norfolk & Western Road will be crossed, lias already been made, aud steps haye been taken by the counties through which the lime will pass to raise funds to aid the enterprise. From Roan- @ke to Asheville, the towns of Flosd, Hillsville and Gap Civil aud Burnsville will be touched by the new line, which will have an easy grade through one con- tinuous valley.. The sixteen mile link between Asbeville and Hendersonville will then be built, and the Central Rail- road of Georgia will have a ljne of its own to almost every important competi- tion point in the Southern States, inclu- ding Norfolk. From Asheville the Weat- ern North Carolina extension, by Waynes- ville, to Murphy, will be atilized, and from Murphy to Jasper a new line will be built, when entrance te Atlanta will be bud via the Marietta & North Geergia Railway. From Atlanta by this live it would be the same distance te Baltimore as by the present Piedmont Air Line. Exclysive of local support it has been es, timated that $6,000,000 will build and equip the road, which, if bailt, will open to the commercial world some of the most valuable mineral, timber and cotton land in the South. ——————— a W.N.C.

Dear Watchman : What is a poet ? There sre myriads of poetasters, petty cobblers at the-trade of rhyme-making. But your true poet isa rara avis, The title is strictly ap- plicable to only two or three men in a century or ina pation, Well, aud what ishe? He is ove whose nature, Ossian’s or Byrou’s, is imagination, He is one who breathes, talks, acts, and, sometimes, writes poetry. Heis one who lives in the dominions of fancy, and so far above the world of other men that they seldom catch a glimpse of him, even when they try to, after adjusting their mental tele- scopes. Nor does he obtrade his pres- ence upon them, and go nosing about in their back streets on the hunt of praise and notoriety. Sympathy he loves; but sycephancy he abhors. Often he dies, like Milten, before they know he% has lived. Often he perishes in a garret, like Chatterton, ere the literary astronomers have discovered and christened his star. Asarale, he is happy if he possesses re- ligious faith, and, rice versa. An an- sanctified imagination is the profeundest curse, the most prolific hot-bed of miser- ies indescribable, earth can produce. Bat there is no wistaking the genuine peet, if you look for him and distinguish bim in the right way. A flash of Byron’s eye, perhaps, conveyed more poetry than can be found ia the golumns of all the newspapers of North Caroliva. Shake- speare’s every day talk, no doubt waa better verse than nine-tenths of our mod- ern scribvliagfs. Yodr Bret “Hartes and Bryants and Longfellows are to such men as pretty*soaring doves te the sun- defying and cloud piercing eagles. It is not antiquity avd prestige, as some fee- bly pretend vo think, that gives the old wasters of poetry thejr immortality. It is gevius, sir,—pure and uvadulterated genius—as high above your so-called peet as Chimberazu’s summit towers over the sand hills by the sea. But are there no poets at the present day? Yes; but they are so lost and obscured among the tremendous piles of dust and rubbish heaped up on every side by copyists and imitators it is precious hard to find them. And your true poet is now bound with a thrall—the fasbion of the day. If, like the old masters, he speaks as the mouth- piece of Nature, he is looked npon astan- tiquated ; he is expected te ape the man- vers of the modern artificial laureate, or be is nothing. Lord deliver us from the affected drawl, the melodious simper of modern poetry! I read it in the popular magazives sometinies, till I am compell- ed to stop and wonder if its authors hare not, in the first place, laboyiously picked ont al] the five, queer, unusual and stun- ning words in the dictionury ; then swal- lowed them all, like the anaconda hides acow;and then spun them out iu five threads, like the silkworm making its cocvon. It would aot surprise me if the correct solution of the whole matter is this:—moderu atilitavianism has, as a rule, swangarock to your true poct’s neck and snuk him to the bottom of the sea; while it has worshipped aud adored the froth that wantles the breakers, Am I av old fogy ? Call me what you will, whenever Bruner gets as much truth iv- to every column as I have tried to put in this, mists and misapprebensions will be- come less. EOP. u. wn es Dattas, May 3.—The leading white Republieans of Dallas have become revo- tionary since the outcome of the Fuit Worth State Convention. They have taken preliminary steps to organize a white man’s Republican party. A club organization was staried to-day.

W. Gifford, of the San Antonia Daily Light. a Circular from Auditor Roberts. STATE OF NORTH CaROLIFA, AUDITOR’s DEPARTMENT, RALEIGH, May 13, 1884. To the Board of Commissioners of the several Counties of the State: Your attention is called to section 52 of an ‘‘Act tu raise reyenue,” ratified 9th day of March, 1883, which provides that “if the State Treasurer shall have regeiv- ed the sum of $600,000 from the Western North Carolina railroad company, va or before the first day of May, 1884, the taxes for State purposes shall not be com- pated on the tax lists for the rear 1884, upon the subjects embraced in claseeg one und two of this xet:” The said sum of $600,000 having been paid on the first instant to the treasurer of the State, there will be no computation of any tax for.State purposes inv either of the columus licaded “Iuceme,” ‘Total State Tax,” or ‘‘Total State Geveral and Special.” In other words, vo tax will be collected this year out of the taxpayers on the subjects named iu classes I aud II for State purposes. ‘This, however, does vot affect the collection of taxes uuder schedules B aud C, which will be cullec— ted as usual. As it was net the purpose of the legis- lature to diwinish the school fund, the law does not suspend either the collection of the poll tax or the tax of 12} cents on the one hundred dollars worth of pruper- ty, fer school purposes; hence the tax will be computed as usual in the column headed ‘For raising additional school tax.” Revised tax-listing blauks would have been furnished had there beep safficient time after the first day of May, under the law, in which to prepare and trana- mit then’ to the counties. The blanks already printed are, there- fore, furuished, with the usual headings, Republican | Hon. RK. B. Vance on the Internal Revenue System. . This system of internal revenue was introduced daring the late war. That war has now been’ over, we might say, for twenty years. Nearly twenty years have elapsed since the last gun was fred Thauk God that the contest was not longer continned! No doubt gentle- mev on beth sides will recall the pleas— are they felt when gentle peace returned and ‘fwar's wild blast was blown away.” We trust it is hushed forever. The high tariff laws, the internal revenue taxation, arose, we may say, out of the necessities ot the government during the war. The waris now overand we have a surplus in the treasury, : I do not object, my people do not ob- ject, to # reasunable tax on whisky and brandy ; but we do object to the present method of its collection—this iniquitous systeu, that is fastened upon the vitals of the people. Wesay that the effect of this system has been to foster in the minds of the people in many places a spirit of disobedience to law. For sir, ander this system a man is not only tied up by bond, he is watched by hired spies and informers—a bedy of officials not relished by the descendants of the men who fought at King’s Mountain, at Sara- toga, at Yerktown and other historic battlefields. ; Sir, lam opposed to distilling. In my very beart I abhor the manafaeture aud sale of intoxicating drink. I have told my people on every stump that I wished they would feed their corn to the hogs rather than manufacture it into whisky. But at the same time itis bad policy to have laws upon the statute book which are so odious that they are objected to even by good people, by religious people. I imagine a depaty marshal, with pisa- tols buckled all around him, riding through the country preparing te arrest suspected people, and even taking ad- vantage of people by pretending that he was ill and in need of spirits, going so far as to leave the price on the gate—post and then going away to have an indict- ment drawn up and the man who from motives of humanity let him have the spirits arrested and carried to jail. There are plenty of such cases. Now, sir, you cannot make a law popular that is carried out by pistols and shotguns, and by ar- resting men and carrying thein off some- times hundreds of miles. I say, sir, it has been the cause and source of corrop- tion. The following is extracted from a report made by aman sent dewa into the western district of North Carolina to leok into these things. This agent says: 15. Of the thirty-one deputy marshals in the district three-fourths of them are guilty of venderiag fraudulent accouuts, ranging from 10 to 90 per cent. fraud | which has been a common practice with | them for the last three years. 16. In addition to malfeasance and fraud the moral conduct of a majority of the deputy marshals is intolerable. Houses are broken into and searched without warrant, women frightened aud insulted, the dogs of unoffending citizens shot down, and trespasses committted at will, Druvkenness, insolence and prefanity mark their course, making them a terror to peaceable citizens aud a disgrace tu the gorernmenut they represent. <-> —____ From the Asheville Citizen.

AC TH OCHLSTER SILK Co., Rochester, N, Y. _ a. Two Jokes. There is probably no business so uni- formly dry as not to afford an —— epeniag through which hamor may slip in. om ae undertaker has his jokes red. | and the gravest digger of graves some- times lets fly a shaft ef wit. And so we find that even politicians are not entirely wanting in humor. The Radical conven- tion en Friday perpetrated tivo huge jokes that will bring many a smile to the good people of Nerth Carolina before the melancholy days of November set in. Without doubt the old line Repnblicans aredreadfully in earnest iu their opposi- tion to the existing system of eounty gov- ernment, They opposed it from its incipi- ency and yet preserve an unreasonable dislike to it. They propose to make a supreme effort to abolish it—and to that end they seek to give it pre-eminence among the issues of the coming campaign. Bat as if to discredit the whole move- ment and make the whule movement a huge joke, Dr. Mott and the rerenuers have captured the convention, forced dewn the throats of the old linc Republi- cans a Demecrat who stood sponser for county government when it was a baby and who nursed it in infancy and strenu- ously maintained it during six years ser~ vice in the legislature, That sach a warm and devoted friend to county government should be selected to lead the assaulting column upon this wise and beneticent measure is a joke of such dimensiens that all people can take it in. Bat one good joke deserves another ; and this has its counterpart in that other joke which the revenuers have perpetra- ted in declaring that they favor the re- 1 of the internal revenue system ; that 8 that they want Congress to legislate them out of office. They are dying to get out of office. They are so eager for it that ghey find fault with the Democrats of the House of Representatives for not passing a bill repealing these internal revenue taxes right over the heads of the Republican Senate and President Arthur.

A sled might do if you could keep the runners out of the rots; but it has been so long since sleds were in use that they would now be out ef fashion, and it is said a man or woman had as well be out of the world as out of the fashion.

SCALES AND HUGHES, With the nomination by the Demo- cratic Convention in June next, of candi dates in whom the people have conti- deuce, there is no reason why there should beany ditiiculty in securing a comparatively easy victory; but we should put our best men on the ticket, not alone for the sake of defeating the Republicans, but also to give character to the administration of public atfairs fer the eusuing four yeara, and as a pledge that good government shall follow the trust repused by the people in the party, a pledge which the Democracy of North Carolina has never failed to redeem. While there are very many capable of ably filling the two chief positions in the gift of their fellow citizens, nene can do so with more ciedit to themaclves aud the State than Gen. Alfred M. Seales, of Greensboro, and Major John Hughes, of New Berne. In peace and iu war Gen. Scales has always been to the frout, doing good service for the people, and no matter what the call has been, be has never failed to respond, whether it was to risk his life on the battle field, or to represent his constituents in legislative halls.

Dabney, State Chemist, has issned a very superior paper on “North Carolina Phosphates.” It is eminently practical, and gives many analyses, be— sides nearly a hundred locations where the Pbhesphate rock is found. There have been some changes in the ewnership of the Barrioger mine, aud there is some talk that that property will be thoroughly developed, and that the work will begin at no distant day. ExposiTion.—A gentleman writing to this paper suggests that we people in this section, might make exhibitof ex- ceeding attractiveness by following the example of thirteen eastern conaties which have combined themselves into the ‘Al- bemarle Sectivu,” and the five counties which have formed the “Newbern Asse- ciation.” If the counties of Rowan, Davie, Ire- dell. aud tne other counties west would unite, make small appropriations, and put active men to work, an exhibit of usual interest could be gathered together. This or something else should be done; for no part of Nortb Carolina is more in- iting than the Piedmont and Moantain sections. But the people living in these sections are exceedingly slow to act. Why isthis so, no one can tell. And thie perfect iguoranes of the eause of the aforesaid slowness is no less har- rassing because of the unrevealed mys tery. There is every cause for the peo- ple wo be awake and active. Most of our landed men wish to make scales, and just now ‘there are those who are looking with interest on the fertile lowlands of the whole Yadkin Valley, from here te its source in Watauga. A great deal of attention has recently been directed to this section of the State, on account of Western Railroads seeking outlets along the eastern coast of North Carolina asd Virginia.

Mary Archey, wife of Dr. M. L. Ar- chey, of Coneord, at the residence of her father, Capt. J, A. Fisher, in Locke town- ship this county, Mrs. Archey was ayoung lady of an exceedingly refined nature, of alevely and amiably temperament and was esteemed by all who kuew her. The family have the sympathies of many frieuds in their bereavement. 0 Weare informed that there is a sly under-current, wire-working influence how operating among the Price- Bingham bosses to elect some of their favorites for County Commissioners on the 2d ef June, Bext. But they are more than likely to fail ; for the magistrates of Rowan are pot _ made up of such stuff as to be hood wink- ed by such schemers as these so-called Liberals. The present Board have serv- @ the county faithfully and we think it Certainly to the best interest of the peo- ple to re-elect them. oO “Suarr Sun.” —Many years ago it a8 common in this country to cut silver dollars into quarters, for the sake of Waking swall change, and the pieces Were passed as quarter dollars.

No one of the present race knew anything of him, his occupation or the money, but on showing the piece to Miss Crissy Beard, our oldest inhabitaut, whese meinory is like a book, she immediately exclaimed : “La! it is one of old Bowie's sharp shins.” The name of the piece no doubt has reference to its three sharp corners and v ’ feuce of the by pone dayn. —~——o The readers attention is directed to a Paragiaph on the first page of this paper om the cultiyation of grapes.

The death of this estimable and chris- tian lady leaves a sad vacancy in a large family connection, and especially in the home of her sorrowiug husband.

The Hewitt vill, the tenor of which has already been fully reported by the press, is doubtless a yery meritorious measure. It proposes the abolition of duties on some articles, and a reduction of present tariff rates on others, which will, according to Mr. Hewitt’s statement, reduce the revenue derived from customs duties about $60-, 00U,C00 per annum. Although the bill does vot ineet the views of Soatheru Congress en on the internal revenue question, it will, it is said, be very pepu- lar awong them. We fear, however, that its chances of success are very alight; the Protectionists will no doubt oppose it as astrenousky ae they did the Morrison bill, and it) wiil therefore meet with the same fate. Southern and Western Congressmen are reported to be combining for the pur- pose of bringing about a repeal of the to- bacco tax. In this,however, they are not likely to succeed. ‘The necessary expor- ditures of a gevernument must be provi- ded for, and it is generally conceded that tobacco and distilled spirits are legiti- nate objects of taxation for that purpose; experievee lias proved thatthe revenue derived from these articles is the most uniform, andis much less eppressive thar taxes obtained through the customs. It would therefore be unwise to lower or repeal the tax on either tobacco or liquors while taxeson the vecessaries of life, levied, not to raise revenue ter govern— ment purposes Lut to subsidize manufac- turiug monopolies, are bearing so heavily upon the peeple.

His numerous securities are withered away, and it is questjenable if where he is stfpposed to have millions, he lias thousands. Yesterday it was ru- mored that his tirm, William E. Conner & Co., had failed, and there is no ques- tion that it is being hard pressed. Last evening, Gould had one of his brother brokew’s clerks arrested for spying upon his business xnd stock deliveries. So it| will be seen that Jay Gould is ene of the hardest hampered men in New York. He cannot make « wovement without being watched. Watched en all sides, he is trusted by none. .

DENVER, Colorado, April 22nd, 1882, Dr. B. J. Kexpoaus & Co., Gents :—Four years ago while in the employ of A.P. Pur ley & Co., Danvers, Mass., we lad a horse that became spavined during thie first year of my stay with them, and remained so for four years, though we used cyery remedy we knew or could hear of but no aya. Some time during the fifth year, (for 1 wae in their employ between five and six years), we were recommended’ to try Kendall's Spavin Cure, and after ‘tsing it two months the Horse was cured the enlargement hav- ing been entirely removed, and thus beli¢v- ing it to bea valuable medcine I fully re commend it to all who have occassion to us@ it.

He was their ‘scourge of God.’ He was cruel, yet he was a great strategist.’ ‘Yes,’ iuterrupted Miss Davis, ‘he was an inhuman monster, What he did not use he destroyed.’ ‘Sherman hesitated,’ Mr. Davia con- tinned, for a loug time between join- ing the Confederate army aud the Union army. We were uncertain which he would do. He finally join- ed the Union army, thiuking, 1 sup- pose, that he coukl gain more.’ ‘My idea,’ remarked Mr. Davis, ‘is that Meade was the most skillful gen- eral in the Federal army. Gen. Lee once said to me that he could under- stand the movements of all the gever- alsin the FeJeral army easier than those of Gen. Meade.

Monday, Jan, 18, 1884, Lat. 36° rN., Lon. 8° 13’ W. - Lret night t8 o'clock we saw the first glimmer of the lights of Europe. It was the right gleam from the light-honse on San Vineent, South-west ex- remity of Portugal. In connection Sith our sighting this welcome bea- con there Was given a striking exam- le of the wonderful exactitude at abich the science of chronometrical horology has arrived, After tea the officers were gathered around the sa- Joon table engaged in ‘working out’ the solar altitudes.taken in eonnec- tion with the chronometer for obtain- ing the ship’s longitude. That work being © leted we proceeded to OE posittion o1 the chart I one of the officers remarked that gecording to the results we were at that moment only two minutes of arc from the radius of Cape San Vincent light. Hardly had he uttered the words when “Light on the port bow!” came ringing down from the look out in the fure top, Between our real sition and that assigned to us by ebronemeter there was a difference of only one second of time, equal to fif- teen seconds of are or one quarter of ‘gmile. Our chronometer was set with Greenwich time last September and has been neither rated nor com- pared since. At dawn the land was plainly visible. This ‘dawn,’ by the way, was a splendid example of cos- mical fraud, not at all like the spe- cies whieh is held outgto the credu-| Jous public as an inducement to this super-extolled region, but a misera- erable hybrid affair, a cross between a London fog and a Scotch mist. The vista was not one to cause a person to rush into a stream of rhe- torical euthusiasm. In fact there is a strong family resemblance between Portugal and her exiled offspring — the Azores, The country is neither meuntainons nor level, but covered witha kind of knobs, resembling gomewhat one of our Kustern sand flats sprinkled over with Gorgontuan hay-stacks, Unlike her less fortu- nate children, however, Portugal abundantly makes up in historical association all that she Jacks in pic- turesque attraction. You forget her undeniable homeliness in tistening to me wouderful tale of her ancient grandeur and proud conquests which he wafts to your entranced ear on e whispering land brecze, Ou this very spot one hundred and ven years ago on Valentine’s morn hen love lorn maids and amorous ouths filled the land with fyum um’ effusions, and the wrath and rden of the postman alike waxed avy, A Very UDAMarous scene was nspiring. Mars had profaned Cu- d’s Sabbath, and Madame Brittania etn matron was at her accustomed beupation ef endeavoring to convince é skeptical Frenchmen that she was he only and original mistress of the Here was that doughty old sea gz, Sir John Jervis, whose undis- ised contempt for ye foolish French- Nn was so great, busily engaged in agreeable task of eradicating po- ical errors after the old theory . é + which treated heresies . anc as inseperable propositions re- fore to be exterminated alike. Very fatigued indeed did the Frenchmen become with Sir Johns red hot argu- ments and very much mutilated "Sia they get with his comical persuasions on that memorable lover’s anniversa- ry. Many a sturdy Briton and gal- lant Gaul went down that fateful day into the unknown depths, anited in the dread fellowship of death, that mighty warrior who knows neither Briton nor Gaul, neither Goth nor Roman, but whose enemy is all man- kind, and whose battle field is the world. Some years after that, Ad- miral Rodney and a cargo or two of Spaniards had a difference of opinion about Gibraltar, on the same spot, during which argument the Angel of Death claimed the majority ‘of the Iberians, It has been end | a long ti since this trifling Tittle esate Wong | whoae shores we are now gliding has played more than a ‘snpe’s’ part in the great drama of Europe, and of late she has been satisfied with a seat in the pea-nut gallery. Far different was it with Lusitania when Emauuel the fortunate held sway over the realm. ’Twas then “The voice of Enterprise spoke from Sagre’s tower,” aod the heart of the daring young Vasco de Gama echoed to her call. Then flourished the gallant Camoens, at once soldier, sailor, poet and exil- ed adventurer, Those were the days of Gomery, of Cartereal, of Cabrillo and of a thousand ether fearless spir- its and ocean knights, ‘The very names of the Portuguese explorers and navigators of that awakened pe- riod would fill a book. Then the “Portugee” was a stirriug individual and spread himself over the face of the earth, exterminating and convert- ing, pirating and exploring, swap- ping the Scriptures for slaves, trans- porting a cargo of Jesuits and relig- ion to Africa and a cargo of ‘uiggers’ and misery back again, and carrying the insane gabble of Portuguese tongues and the vile odor of Portu- guese garlic into the remotest regions of the globe, The Portuguese Per- icles is dead now. Enterprise grown hoary from unheeded adjarations no longer ‘speaks from Sagre’s tower.’ The ‘Portugee’ having abandoned the search fur El Dorado about the same time that he abjured the use of soap and water looks back apon both, with the contempt of superior anlight- enméit, as vain dreams of a reman- tic epoch, The people having rent- ed their country and ~eoasts out to England for a battlefield went to sleep as one man and at latest ac- counts this nation of sleeping beau- ties was still slumbering. The ‘Great Allied European Cireus” with a de- cidedly novel attraction called Carlo III arrtved in the somnolent realm on its way to Spain and set up_ its show in several Portuguese villages but it did not seem to take well with the Lusians, so it went to Spain. ahere the novelty drew in a manner that exceeded the wildest expectations of the managers. It attracted an immense amount of attention. In a little village called Brihuega it drew the attention of a gentleman named Duke Vendome who attended the performance and brought such a crowd of his friends along that the proprietors were seriously incommod- ed, and so embarr:sed that a good PACE’S \ JNION STREET, WAREHOUSE!

The survivors tore up a good deal of Por- tuguese territory in their frantic at- tempts to get ever IT, and remarked when they had regained the sea-coast that they had brought out a Carlo }11I, but he had proved to be a car- toad too before they got through with +him. In spite of all the sarrounding hilarity the lazy Lusians slept on. The earthquake came along that way scooped in a quantity of hae, and jolted up the survivors; Napoleon arrived on the scene and sti them up in his character of fairy prince, but the sleeping beauties only grunt- ed, said an expletive and snored again. I will wager that if we were to land at any one of the little white sepulchre villages past which we are now sailing we would find five. men and ten dogs to every hundred square feetof sunshine. T in- der of the population would bly be slumbering in the shade. Just on our port bow lies the lovely little. city of Lucas de Barrameda. Up there on the brow of that. gently slop- ing hill, bristling with fortifications and long lines af plcting white bar- racks, lies a spot of emerald green upon which the eye loves to rest from the gleam and glare of the intensely white buildings. Here it was that Fer- dinand de Soto, three hundred years ago, mustered his brave band of adven- turers, the flower of Spanish ehivalry, with Portuguese glittering iv burnieb- ed armor,and Castillians“ very gallant, with silk upon silk.” Upon the steps of yon aged, gray eathedra], whose ta- pering spire towers above the sur- rounding foliage of olive and cork trees, stood the venerable ‘padre’ when he invoked the blessing of Heaven on the devoted band who} carried a cross to erect on the banks of the Father of Waters, and mana- cles for prospective slaves. From that lovely land-loecked bay, rippling | in the sunlight, they sailed, the most | of them never to return, Far away, across the fertile valley of the Gua- dalquiver, a few white spots are bare- ly discernable, gleaming amid the luxuriant vineyards. ‘These charm- ingly situated yillas are the outposts of the town of Palos—a name which deserves the eternal remembrance of | Americans, for from this place de- parted the intrepid mariner who gave them their land.

Sr oO or Outlived His Poliey—In 1846, Chas. Barrett of Ashburton, Mass., came to the conclusion that he might die before having accumulated a for- tune sufficient to make his family comfortable or render his widow a desirable catch. While in this state of mind he went and insured his life for $1,000. He was then 60 years of age, which makeshim 98 now. A few days ago he was surprised to re- ceive a check for the amonnt of his policy, tegether with a note explain- ing that he had reached the extreme limit of life according to the tables on which that company based its busi- ness; therefore he was dead to them. It is stated by an experienced life- insurance agent, that this is the first sein which a man has beaten an insurance company by outliying his policy. “ “ “ “ ug 4 “a “ “ “ “ 20 | 8D » 00 Re c ww w te ct l 9 — “ “ “i Ba a s Z a a n a n a a r s s s a s “ “ 626 66 25 00 25 00 20 00 10 00 4 50 8 90 11 00 245 10 18 20 00 4 00 2 00 3 75 4 50 875 32 50 “ “ I ' —— Good Words for Girls. _A writer in Women at Work ad- vises girls, if they would be happy in the married life, to marry a tleman.

The banks bad their coffers. fulland did not knew how to invest it. In order to utilize their fands they lent money on stocks at low rate on eall. Men who never hypothecated a secority with brekers were thus induced to change the nature of their leans from time to call, depositing stocks with the banks as collatterals. When the stocks began te depreciate rapidly the leans were called. The owners could not sell on the weak market witheut heavy less, They therefore had to borrow again on call—and money on call ran up te 3 per cent a day, equal to 1,000 per cent a year! That was imteresting te the parties con- cerned and shows where much of the real weak ness lay. ALL SerRENE.—It is safe to say the panic is over. The storm has spent its force, the sky has cleared and an air of serenity prevails. Nothing now remains to be done bat the clearing away of the debris andthe resumption of business op a tirmer and = =more_ substan- tint—basis. Stitt—the-vyclone ~ was “a ‘“‘terror” while it lasted and had it net been for the unien of the banks it would have raged with greater devastating effect. The lesson we have been taught is a severe one and if we are wise we will heed it by proceeding at a more cautious gait.—N. Y. Stock Report. Philadelphia Record: If Gen. Grant had undertaken to do business in the rear of an army as a sutler, instead ef at 9 the head of it as a General, he would 3 | have doubtless preved a failure. He bas shown himself a competent commander of men and ap incompetent partuer in a broker’s shop. No man is so many sided | that he is a great man in every direction. All the old California mining towns are in a decayed or decaying condition. Some of them, most flourishing from 1849 to 1854 or 1856, are blotted from existence and lost to memory save in the immedi- ate neighborhood where they once stoed. Nearly every ove of the placer mining counties has sume suelt melancholy un- written histories ef its owu.— Ez. Virginia (Nev.) Chronicle: Statisties show thatthe population of a country will double in forty years by natural in- crease. The 50,000,000 of American peo- ple will soon need all the lands ef their country for their own and their children’s support ; and yet we find those lands ac- tually centrolied, under our outrageons laws by people who never set their feet upon American soil, and probably never intend to. Thus far Ben Butler has got away with the ether Presidential candidates. He has already been nominated by two con- ventions. A inau with w head the shape and color of a calt’s is now om exibition in Paris. He is doubtless the eriginal dude. Why is it that when a man sits on paint the paint and his treusers are nev- er the same color ? Hens may be a little backward on eggs but they never fail te eome to the scratch where flower beds are concerned. “You are the greatest woman I ever heard of,” said the boy to his ence “you tell me Ihayea bad temper, an yet blame me for lusing it.” “Do you know,” as a gentleman, ‘why rebbins are more inelligent than hens?” ‘‘No,” was the reply. ‘‘Because they are better posted in the higher branches.” A man in Texas raises goats for their flesh, bat when the festive creatures grew up they raise him just for the fun of the thing.

Fisk, the president, after hid- ing out for a fow days, was arrested. and held in a bond of $30,000 to answer vari- ous complaints and charges. Tbe Grants will probably go clear, notwithstanding they also were sharers in the remarkable profits of Ward’s banking skill. ee There are financial tronbles in London as well asin New“¥erk. The Oriental bank of that city closed ite: doors a few days ago, producing widespread distress and destitution. .A- score of suicides fol- lowed its suspension.. It had ever 100,- 000 share holders, and was theught to be one of the stanchest banks in the coun- try. The rainy day savings of thousands have been swept away leaving them pen- niless. : ae Gen Grant is represented as greatly depressed by the failure of the Marine bank. He had such unbounded coofi- dence in Ward that he rejected warning given him wonthe ago that the Cashier was gn “adventurer,” ot wore plainly speaking, a gambler. He fears it may lose him the confidence aud respect of the country, and isso seusitive en the subject that he will not read what the newspapers are sayiug about it. —>-—-— Ferdinand Ward, cashier of the Ward- Grant bank, isto be sifted by a grand jury, and will be required to tell how and why he played so weil and so long on Gen. Grant's gevernment contracts. In other words, parties concerned intend to see what there is in Ward and what he did with 614,000,000 of money for which be has as yet showm nothing. It is undeniable that Ward played bis Land well, seeing how adroitly he em- ployed Llyses the great te sustain the game. —_<—>-— Judge John A.

I had blistered 1% several times and concluded that my horse would never get over being lame. Five weeks ago to-day 1 commenced using Ken. dall’s Spavin Cure and after using it three weeks the lameness entirely disappeared. It has been worth $80.00 to me. H. Hf. Hocse. Mount Prairie, Minn., Sept. 24, 1883. Dr. B. J. Kenpani Co., Gentlemen: — Last Spring I had a valuable young horse that from some cause got a very large lump, ¢ about half way on his shoulder and was very laine for a long time. I had the best horse ductors examine her, some called it one thing some another, one said the shoul- der was broken but none could cure it. After [bad tried the cure I went and bought one bottle of Kendall's Spavin Cure, I did not use one half of it before it was al smoath and clean.

Sometimes it isa busy and and exciting scene to look upon; but generally, to one who is in the habit ef his own business, it isa dull place. Who eares know whether John Smith or Jim Blue was in the right or the little fight they bad with each other? Who cares to know how Jake JF reeman siole Mr. Brown’s Plymouth Reek pullets; er how Nuucy Deau lied on Polly Greens and hew Polly pulled Nancy’s bair and | Tipped off her skirte? Whe cares te know [how Mr. Sharpe put another man be | tween himself and responsbility and so | escaped the justice his shield could not }make? Who cares te load his mind with the recitals of crimes, and tales of malice iand revenge? T'rne, the lawyers do often |make much out of these cases by their | artful questions, their skillful collation }and cembination of facts, and their elo quent pathetic avd declamatery appeals te the jury; and it is not without inter- jestto many to hear them. But when it js considered that they are doing all for the fee, and would not speak withont it, the matter is largely shorn of its interest and the lover ef truth for trath’s sake turns away with a sense of time wasted ip listening. It is therefore safe to say, that the Court House is good eaeygh place for Judges, lawyers, Court elerke, Sher iffs, witnesses, prisoners and parties iv | litigation, but not for people who have | any business of their own away from | there. | _———_- Lnochville | — | This morning eve of our citizens, Mrs. Cosbi Overcash, sister of our estimable townsman, Aaron Yost, was called awa from the sorrows avd cares of this world. | She was sik enly a few days, bat her time had come.

It is pleasant to take and is not distress- ing to the patient, but is peculiarly sicken- ing and stupefying to the Tape Worm, which loosens its hold of its victim and passes away in a natural and casy manner, entirely whole, with Head, and while still alive. Ove physician has used this specific in over 400 cases, without. a single Hilure to void worm entire. Success guaranteed. No pay required until removed with head. Send stamp for circular and terns.

Even at this rate, such a mill as the Eagle and Phenix of Columbus, Ga., hasan advantage of (15,000 bales per $4.50) at least £67,5L0 over a Northern mil! of sim- ilar capacity. ‘This is equal to an an pnaal dividend of 7 cept on very nearly a million dollars.” When Sugar was Invented. sugar is not much A strong claim for pri- ority has been made for Probably the Hindoos learned the art from the Chinese, and from China the knowledge was carried farther West. Three hundred and twenty- five years before Christ, Alexander aent Nearchus with a large fleet down the indus to explore the adjacent countries. When that officer retarn- ed from his expedition he brought to Greece an account of honey (sugar) which the Asiatics made from cane, without any assistance from bees, This was the earliest idea the West- ern vations had of sugar, the Jews, Egyptians, Babylonians and Greeks knowing nothing of its use. As late as A, D. 150 sugar was prescribed by Galen, the famous physician, as a Medicine. Before the diseoyery of America, sugar was a cestly luxury, used only on rare occasions. During the wars of the roses, about 1455, Margaret Pasten, wife of a very wealthy ceuntry gentleman of Nor- folk, wreteto her husband begging that he would “‘vouchsafe” to send her apound ef sugar. As late as 700 all England consumed only pty million pounds in the course of a year, but since, the consumption has greatly increased, twenty million hundred weight now being used by the English people. The proeess of refining sugar was not known in Eng- land previous to 1659, That was probably an inyeution of the Arabs. A Vevetian merchant learned the secret fromthe Saracens of Sicily, and sold the art for ong hundred thousand crowns. . ———~->-—__ _ __ The Cotton Expvsition, India.

Baker, of Charlotte, is a humbug on weather pzedictions for June, though not more so than others who undertake to predict the weather for each day for a month ahead. A Baltimore correspondent of the Wiu- ston Sentinel nominates Samuel Witt- kewsky of Charlotte, for State Treasurer. This gentioman stauds high in Charlotte where he is best known, and if he should get the nomisation, the fact of his being a Hebrew sheuld not only not operate to bis prejadiee but rather commend him ; for. as a race, there are fewer defaulters amovg the Jews than among any other people, They represent a very large money interest in the State and pay a large proportion of the taxes. And while we do not believe the office would be bet- ter filled by Mr. Wittkowsky than by Dr. Worth, yet we have no doubt the for- mer would bring fidelity and ample skill and ability to the discharge of its daties. eee ope Henry Stewart, Agricultural editor of the New York Times, has made two visits to Western North N.

And yet there is a goodly number of people in our towns, alse in the country, who order their flour from Richwond aud Baltimore atacost of about $7 a barrel laid down at their houses. Why is this? It is due entirely to the quality ef the flour. Nearly all our country millers profess to make an A No. ] Family Flour, but they do pot do jit. Goed hotels and good house keepers go abroad foy five flour, We mention this forthe benefit of farmers who raise the wheat. Noone will pre- tend to say that the wheat raised in this section is inferior to that used by the Richmend and Baltimore millers. The . | difference js in the milling beyond doubt, and it is certainly an interesting question to these who raise wheat for the market, whether or not they ean afferd to pa- trenize milla which give such inferior results. ———> -<>- a The Wilmingtan Star has heard that eur members in Congress are endeavor- ing te shape the politics of the State by laying down a programme of candidates in tho several districts. We have heard nothing of the kind and would be glad te know that there is no foundation fer the the report. In order to obviate all such outside pressure and to reach the most satisfactory results, we propose that the delegates to the Conrention ut- terly discard nominating cemmittees, and take the vote of the Convention without avy previous nominations: First for Gov- eruor, thep for Lt. Governor, and so ov to the eng of the chapter, each delegate voting for whom he pleases, representing the sentiment pf his county. Ne one will probably get a majority of all the votes cast on the first ballot; but then let all the names voted for except the two high- est be dropped, and take the vote on them. He that gets the highest vote on the second ballot should be declared the choice of the Convention. We are not addressing the “leaders” of the Democratic party in these suggestions, bat thedeiegates who may attend that body. The delegates are nearest to the peo- ple, and the selection of candidates sheuld be made ina way te assure the peeple that they have had a yoice in the selec— tion of candidates, and that this basiness was not ruled out for them by a few in- dividuals biased Ly personal feeling and personal aims. -e--——— nn ae —___ Mrs. Grant, the wife of Gol.

Ex. Com, May 7, 1884. ><> . There have been mavy and valuable improvements in the town of Concerd in the lusttwenty years, theongh scarcely noticesble to persons living there er to those frequenting the place withim that time; but to those whose visits have been at longer intervals, itis very strik- ing. The main atreet leading from the ceuter of the business part of the tewa towards the cotton facteries, and which fermerly terminated at the late residence of Dr. Edmand Gibson but now extends al! the way to the Factory, is ene of the most beautiful streets in the State. It is chiefly made up of pretty residences with awple yard spaces, some ornamented with shrubbery and ethers kept as grass plats ; altogether presenting asoene of home comfort rarely excelled. All the buildings with two or three exceptions are good, many of them are elegant, while the surroundings are tasteful and attrac tive. The new churches are a very neticeable and impertant improvement. Methodists, Presbyterians aud Lutherans have all built new and elegavt churches. The negro cellege and thechurch belong- ing to it, are large, handsome, solid brick buildings. The new Court House em- braces modern improvements, is well located and showy. And someef the new stores are attractive places: Messrs. Caunon & Fetzer are doing the heaviest business, perhaps, requiriag two large rooms to accommodate their trade, which is mixed and general. But the leading business feature of the town is the Odell Cotton These are in full operation and doing good business. They are furnished with new and improved antomatic machivery, which is turning out excellent work. these mills are sold both verth aud south, and command a ready sule’ at remupera— tive prices. They are ronnuing largely on plaids of various styles, seamless bags aud towels. ‘The colton is taken ip at ove door in bales asit comes from the farmer, and goes Factories.

Eee For the Watchman, MUSIC, And where is the Native taleuts so geod or the cnltivation so high as ip Sal- isbaury ? It was our pleasure to be at the Presbyterian Manse on last Friday even- ing and hear Mrs. Rumple’s class in their musical recital. Mrs. Rumple is one of the best music teachers in the State, aud so thoroughly drills her pupi's that they take the high- est stand in music when they leave her. Vhey play the largest and most difficult prices in such perfect time that the most sensitive musical car is pleased and the severest critic silenced. On this occasion the selection of pieces was good aud de- lightfully rendered. The pupils playiu without their votes with accuracy aad expression, every note being distinctly beard, aud the lomg trilla cowing in as smooth asthe rippling of waters. The chorus class sang seme very pretty songs in a tasteful mauvuer which showed care— ful training. Seme of pieces were given on three instruments, piano, organ and violin. Mra. Rumple has been teaching music for years and has met with unpre- cedented success, developing and training seme of the finest pianvists in the State. . at cape Que For the Watchman. At St. Luke’s Episcopal church, in this city on Sunday, Francis E. Shober, Jr., was ordained deacon, Bishop Lyman of- ficiating in the services. The visiting clergy were Rev. Dr. Wetmore, Rev. Mr. Stublis and Rev. Mr. Parker. Mr. Sho- ber was presented by Rev, Fraucis Muar- doch, Kector of this Parish. On Sunday night Mr. Shober preached his first ser- mon to a densely crowded house and at- tentive audience, from the text ‘Blessed is he whosoever is not offended in my name.’ The sermon was replete in beau- tiful thought and delivered in an earnest manner. The youthful face, the flewing robes and devout look of the young min- ister attracted all eyes, and to many it was a acene most touching. In his Bless- ed Master's work we wish him abundant success—many souls for his hire.

Write for a. We visited a geography class a few days ago, in which we noticed a new method of conducting reviews. The plan is so good that we desire to submit it to our readers, hoping that they will test its value. The class had completed the geogra- phy of Europe. Two members were appointed by the teacher to set out on a travelling expedition, in which they were to visit all the large cities they could reach in ships or large steam-boats. Two others were to visit the cities that could not be reached exeept by rail. Two were to take a tour over the coun- try, visiting the principal mountains, ascertaining their height, and for what they were noted. Two others were to visit the principal islands. If any two, who set out on the same expedition, failed to agree as to the route they take, they were at liberty to separate and go in different directions. They were to tell the size of the places visited, what kind of people lived there, what their occupation was, how they dressed and how they worshipped. The class was much interested in these reports, and all seemed to realize (a thing rarely done by a geography class) that there actually were such places as they were talking about, and that real people lived there. We heard these pupils, a few days after, conver- sing among themselves of the places they had visited, much as they would had they actually made the trip. We mentally resolved to try this plan at the first opportunity, and advise you, fellow teacher, to do the same.—Ez. Ivy WE WERE ASKED who is to be “the coming man” in the tutorial profession, we would answer unhesitatingly, “the man who recognizes and acts upon the fact, that in order to bea teacher, he must deyote some portion of his time to learning how to teach.” The old idea that a man is a full fledged teacher as soon as he has acquired a certain a- mount of book knowledge ia going out of fashion. Those whose business it is to look \fter the interests of the schools in the county, are beginning to show an interest in their work, When a body of men, such as that which met at the Court House on the 24th of May,assem-~ bles and earnestly discusses the subject of education; it means something. /f Not that we are to reject all former ideas about teaching means prog ress. and substitute “new fangled ideas” in their stead, but that we mean to profit by the past, retaining much that is good in the old system, and making such improvements as experience suggests as practicable, That there is room for improvements, none will deny. In every other department of science, improve- ments are continually being made. Shall the same science of education be denied the same privilege? The teacher who thinks so well find him- slf slowly, it may be, but none the less surely, gravitating towards the lower ranks of the profession, Tue Southern Presbyterian Gener- al Assembly adjourned on Saturday night, May 24th. ‘The following is the most important matters; “The question of corrieg with a deceased wife’s sister was referred fin- ally to the Presbyteries for their ad- vice and consent, The mode of amending the Confession of Faith and Catechism was decided on, The ques- tion of powers of elders to act as Mod- erator of Church Courts was referred to the next Assembly. A committee was appointed to prepare and send down to churches a pastoral letter on the duty and neglect of family wor- ship. The cause of education receiv- ed much attention, and in considera- tion of the increasing number of can- didates for the ministry the churches were urged te increase their contribu- tions so as to meet all the require- ments for the expense of education. At a late hour on Saturday night, after disposing of all the busines« on the docket and passing the customary vote of thanks, the Assembly was closed with devotional exercises. The Moderator, in accordance with the form prescribed, declared the General Assembly of 1884 dissolved, and ordered that another Assembly Le convened in the city of Housten, Tex- as, on the third Thyrsday of May, 1885.” A valuable feature of a recitation, saysa writer in the Student,is a discussion on the subject of the lesson. Whether this is between the members of the class or between the class and its teach er, it is to be encouraged. How inter- esting it is in the midst of a bare state- ment of memorized facts, to see the eyes brighten at the ion of some per- tinent question! How the sleepy minds suddenly awake to thonght, in solving a newproblem, or vol a new idea! How aclass. becomes full of bright- ness when an honest difference of opin- Se ee es ehiectis henat A ae ing to the subject in ! A skill- ful teacher can Lats rovoke and control such a debate. en you can get a child to ask<ntelligent questions, or express original ideas, no matter how crude, you have brought that child into a very desirablé frame of mind for the reception of truth, and for the ex- pansion of its powers. We suggest this as a practical rule: Never go be- fore a class without having prepared at least one question not in the text-book, but closely related to what is there, which will awaken interested thought in the minds of the children. Fz. The pelicy of the Democrats is to utilize every dollar possible in pay- ing the three per cent bonds now out- standing. By this means we not only stop interest and save an expense to the people, but also hasten the day when the inevitable crisis will be reached forcing a reduction of taxa- tion. There are now only $230,000-, 000 of these three per cent bouds un- paid, and the Democratic House should make every exertion to pay them off at once. Because of this the Dingley bill should be passed at this session. This bill provides that about $40,000,000 of greenbacks now lock- ed up in. the treasury shall be inves- ted in these bonds. If this be done and $40,000,000 of bouds be retired there will remain outstanding but $190,000,000. The existing surplus continuing, there will be retired within the next twelve months $100,000,000 more, and by that time we assume the sit- aution will be so critical that no pub- lic man will dare totrifle with the promblew further, and all opposition to tax reduction will cease. What the Democratic party desires to accom- plish will then commend itself to the judgment cf all classes and our meas- ure will be successful, The people will be relieved of the unnecessary | burdens they now bear and the ceun- try will be more prosperous.— News | & Observer. a Boggan Cash’s Second Victim.— James Coward, who was shot and ‘fatally wounded by W. B. Cash, on February 23 last, died last evening at about 9 o'clock. From the mo- ment his physicians examined the wound they had net the slightest hopes of his reeovery, but he held out to the last, though all the while ex- pressing his willingness to submit to the inevitable. He has borne his sufferings with remarkable fortitude, although conscious that his short life, (he was only 25) would svon be at an end. He will be sadly missed from among the ranks of his numerous friends, by whom he was justly re- garded as a genial, clever companion. —_- -- A Bee’s Feer.—Naturalists say that the feet of the common working bee exhibit the combination of a basket, a brush and a pair of pincers. The brush, the hairs of which are arrang- ed in symmetrical rows, are only to be seen with the mieroscope. With this brush of fairy delicacy the bee brushes its velvet robe, to remove the llen dust with which it becomes oaded while rifling the flowers and sueking up their nectar. Another article, hollowed up like a spoon, re- ceives al] the gleanings which the in- sect carries to the hive. It is a panier for provisions. Finally, by opening them, one upon another, by means of a hinge, these two pieces becomea pair of pincers, which render impor- tant services in the construction ef the combs. ee London Aquarium Burned. —The East London aquarium at Bishop’s Gate, was burned this morning. Of the cellection of wild avimals, some were safely removed, others it was necessary to shoot, and some were burned. Among the latter were lions, bears, jackals and monkeys. Two Russian bears, however, were rescued. was something terrible. The co!lec- tion of curiosities of Marwood, the potorious hangman, was consumed, The roaring of the burning beasts ~ The Methodists in their General Conference in Philadelphia ask for the Gevernment to promote public education by a free distribution of moneys in the Treasury. ‘The mon- eys were not raised and placed in the Treasury for any such purpose. It is an abuse of power and a perversiou of funds to use them. But the North- ern Methodists are only acquainted with Hamiltonian ideas of a strong government, Possibly they never heard of local self government or the rights reserved to the States under the Constitution. But if they show a disregard of the Fundamental Law of the Union, they have some respect for the Divine law and, therefore, voted against licensing women to preach the Gospel by a majority of two to one. Put that down to their esedit.— Wil. Star. ae Tue Prince or WALEs BoreD. — The Prince of Wales has not so much gone to Royat for his health as to avoid being condoled with on the death of his lamented brother. He has been surfeited with conventional mourning in Germany, because, as one of Prince Consort’s sons, he is a Duke of Saxony. He could not tra- verse a village or stop an instant ata railway station without being pounc- ed upon by well-meaning functiona- ries of the locality and obliged to lis- ten toa dull essay on the shortness of life and the irreparable. loss the royal family has sustained. At Darmstadt every lady wore a long face. At Berlin the lugubrious cere- mony observed by nearly every one who approached him became intoler- able. The Prince was thankful to find himself, after all this simulated woe, in a republican city, where not a creature thought of presenting him with an address. ee THE MaryLanD Democracy.— Baltimore, June 5.—The Democratic State Convention to elect sixteen del- gates to the National Convention and eight Presidential electors, met at 12:30 to-day at Ford’s Opera House, and was called to order by Hon. A. P. Gorman, chairman of State Cen- tral Committee. There was a very full attendance, every legislative dis- triot in the State being represented. A series of resolutions were adopt- ed in faver of reform, denouncing the fraud of 1876, and incidentally fa- voring the nomination of Tilden and- Hendricks as standard bearers in the vext campaign, was received with great applause. Delegates at large were chosen to the National Conven- tion, who though not instructed are understood te be for the old ticket. a An exchange says that a portable oil miil bas been invented that will prove very useful. Farmers can ex- press the oil from the cotten seed without hauling them away from the plantations.

As violent however, ag were his per- sonal antagopisme, Blaine yet managed tv eontro] the majority of his party in the House aod roled it with ungommon power. The period of hija regime was the corraptera in the history of our country. Jobbery flouwiished. Great grants of public lands weic made to cor- porations. Important qacstions affecting the railroad corporations chartered du- ring the war, and involving large amounts of movey iv which the government was interested, were brought forward for leg- islation. Speaker Blaine, it is alleged, always was favorable to these measures. The pablic treasury was being milked by the adroit manipulators of railroad mag- pates and the Speaker, it bas been regard- ed , prometed their designs. How far he fegthered bis own nest is not known, When the Democrats became the domi- fnant majority in the House the judiciary committee was instracted to make some investigations and Judge Thomas Ashe was on a sub-committee to investigate some questions that appeared to involve the integrity of the ex-speaker, It was duying this investigation that the noeto- rious ‘!

The incidents of that occasion are not entirely fresh in our memory, bat as ye recall them, Mr. Blaine whep a crisis was reached, suddenly suffered a stroke of apoplexy or dangerous illness that arrested the proceedings.

It goes without saying that the written evidence of his guilt contain- ed in the Mulligan letters which he thus But the voice of the coautry was pro- nounced, and many of his own party friends regard him as a very disreputa- ble person. The Lyening Post and the New York Times, both leading Republi- can papers along with numerous other Repablican sheets have never hesitated to speak of him asa disgraced and dis- honored man, and as one unworthy of the support of decent citizens.

During Mr. Blaine's seryice iy the House he was chogen Speaker ‘fgr “three successive terms, and was ovly dislodged by the incoming of a Democratic majori- ty in December, 1885. ° ° > He exhibited great familiarity with the rules and was qaick and Vigilagt, wjn- ning for himself a great reputation as 9 brilliant presiding officer. Otherwise, however, his reputation was not “good. On the | of the Hoase he had a hecto ring style, an overbeaping) nrapuer, gnd not being a trained lawyer but merely an intellectual free lance, he acknowledged no sestraints, but took positions on sub- jects from motives uf policy without re- gard ty their soundness and not consider- ing whither his steps might lead. As a party leader or perhaps more properly as | though he enlived debate with personali- with his old adversary Conkling, mie had been called to the some years before. It was considered that Blaine, notwithstanding his iutellec- tual brilliancy, would be out of place in 80 grave a council chamber as the Senate aud that his active and hectoring dispo. sition wos more fitted for the bull-fights of the House than for the quiet and se- date upper chamber. And so jin some measure it proved ; but on the whole he | bore himself well ip the Senate, and Senate chamber ties, he held his own with ease against even such formidable antagonists as Ed- munds and Coukling. In 1876 Mr. Blaine was first brought forward as a candidate for the Presiden- tial pomivation, and as he bad just before provoked a heated discussion with Ben Hill on the question of the treatment of Federal prisoners by the Confederate au- thorities at Andersonville. Le was in high feather and developed great strength. Qu the first bailopt in the conyention of that year, 379 being necessary to achoice he received 285 votes on the seventh ran up to 351; but the field being against him there was a stampede for Hayes, who received 334 votes and was nomina-— ted. Blaine’s defeat at that time taught him a Jesson, for Hayea was controlled by those leaders who had made him Presi- dent? And so when the next issue came, he determined that if unsnecessfal bhim- self, he yet would dictate the President. Iu the following convention he held his 234 votes againgt Grant’s 306 until the 35th ballot when he threw his strength to Garfield and named the Presi- dent. ° . . As the frnit of this atroke of policy, Garfield selected Blaine as the leading figure of his administration and he enter- ed the cabinet as Secretary of State. The effect of this alliance between the Presi- dent and Coukling’s persoval enemy was to throw Conkling and his followers, among them Vice-President Arthur, into violent opposition, and upon a trifling pretext the New York Senators resigned and appealed to the stalwart wing of their party for vindication. Blaine with much adroitness marshaled the -‘Half- breeds” and with consumate skill manag- ed to defeat both of the retired Senators and to obtain for Garfield a dominant in- fluence iv New York politics. One of fhe results of this épisode was the assassination of the President by a deranged Stalwart and the elevation of Arthur to the Presidency tollowed by the retirement of Blaine to private life. During his short career as Secretary pf State, Mr. Blaine exhibited an actiyity anknown to the public men of his party. He sought to signalize his administration by a foreign policy that would be a de- parture from all of our traditions. He fimed to subordinate the egtire Western Hemisphere ty the influence of these Uni- ted States, and annoynced the parpose of establishing the doctrine that this Union would interpose to preserve the peace of the New World and to control its affairs, while European interference woald not be tolerated. A policy leading so inevi- taply to distant warfare and threatening to ivolve us in all sorts of difficulties. did pParty manager, he was very successful ; fean people—and set i and calculated by its i win favor. The wheel af er that turned Blaine pat of "= fice put a quietus to these and President Arthar quickly retarned to the old ways of non-intervention while anvoup¢ing a frm adierence to the needs ree doctrine. To this rapid and haaty add a word as to his personal appearance. He is a large, well made man, with a striking carriage, quick in bis movements of dark complexion approaching the olive gud full of vigor. He is intensely popular among his friends, and greatly disliked by his ene- mics. The strength of his nomipation lies in big record in opposition to the Chinese, which gaing him fayor on the Pacific coast ; and in his aggressive forgigu poli- ey which is caigulated to wio to his sup- port those Irish yoters who hope that he may embroi! this country ina war with Great Britain. While his relatijong with President Garfield were ‘such that he might be regarded as Garfield’s political heir, and thus find a strong support in Ohio, that very circumstance {s bis great- est element of weakness, for it renders his candidacy without hope inasmuch as the stalwarts of New York will pot vote for him, It is quite impossible for Blaine to carry the Empire State; and although his adherents claimed in the convention that they could elect him without New York, yet when they concede that New York will cast its vote against him, they admit his defeat.

If this election can be carried by dash and enthusiasm and splendid leadership, the event may possibly justify the audac- ity of Mr. Blaine’s friends at Chicago, but the chances are fearfully against him. His character has been eo waliguautly blackended and disterted by the news- paper orgaus ef the present adiminijstra- tion during the strife fur the nomination, and it is apparently so impossble fer the indiscreet and unscrupulous friends of Mr. Arthur to support him, that the fight for Mr. Blaine must be a sort of forlora hope at the best, a fight only te be won by sheer desperation aided by wonderful luck. , New York Times, His nomination mepng a disastrous de- feat for the Republican party, and from that defeat the party would never recov- er except under other leaders and perhaps under another name. The party had assuredly fallen on evil days, It bas been stained and dishonored by men who have no part in it save for their own sel- fish and ignoble purposes. But the great mass of its members are still the most intelljgent part of our population, the backbene of our pational life. We be- lieve that a party with such men in it is never hurt past surgery until it is evtire- ly dead. We believe that the Republi- can party is worth saving. It is werthy at least, of achance to save itself, and that chance will be denied it if it is ask- ed to follow a leader whom many of its menibera believe to be the type of what is worse jn it aud not of what is best. Philadelphia Times, It ie a truth obvious to al} jntelligent and dispassionate observers that the nomination of Blaiue is pot regtful te the seusitiye business interests of the country and the platferm of usmixed and reckless demagogism on which he is placed as the party candidate, must deepen and widen business distrust and arouse the search— ing inquiry ef the thoughtful and conser- vative of all parties. The platform is not the expression of a great party that can justly assume to staud as a bulwark against the disturbing ebbs and flows of trade which are feared from the reckless or dishonest. Itis a reproach te the country that a ruling party has felt safe ja suck an exhibition of the political wan- ton as is ave in what is called the na- tional platform of the Republican party, aud it wil be idle for the Republican leqders te cloge their eyes te the fact that the conservative voters, who must pro- test, if nof revolt, against the Chicago platform, will generally accept it as a fair reflex of the political aims of the candidate.

No voter dares tp te}l his friends or his family that he is going to yote for » man knowing him tobe a knave. What is to be the issue from this deplorable and djsastrous, but deliber- ately created, muddle itis yet too soon to forecast. That Mr. Blaine cannot be elected we look on as certain... Whether be can be defeated without ruinjog the organization which is being prostituted in the service of his selfish ambitian re- maius to be seen. The extent of his de- feat—that is, the size of the majority which will renove him permanently from the political arena—will depend largely on the action of the Democrats.

That they wil offer deliver- guce ur yelicf to disgusted Republicans by nominating such a man as Cleveland or Bayard, whegu Tilden or Flower or Jefferson Davis or Jolin Kelley are with- in their reach,is something which it would be very rash to predict.

Five weeks ago to-day I commenced using Kea- dall's Spavin Cure and after using it three weeks the lameness entirely disappeared. It has been worth $80.00 to me. H. H. Hovse.

Few people are aware of the enormity of the shingle making business in Forth Carolina. Besides those engaged in split- ting out and dressing shingles iu the old way—which makes a far superior shingle —there are steam saw mills all over the State cutting shingles. Mr. Connelly, at Teard, has piled up at the Station, on the W.N.C. Railroad, about four million shingles, the product of his and one or two mills near him. His sales last year amounted to six million shingles. His own mills turn out about three million. These figures give some little idea of the magnitude of the business in the State. Tre VALUE oF ouR Woop.—A worker efeur hard woods, and a large dealer, told the writer the other day that he had bought asecond growth hickory (ree, standing, for five dollars and fifty cents. He said that the mau from whom be par- chased was fully satisfied with the price paid. He cut the tree aud sawed it in the careful manner, and when he had tinished the work, he ceoanted up the value, and found that he had turned out from this single tree, ove bandred aod thirteen dollars and sixty cents worth of marketable material. ‘hia should prove an eye-opener to the owners of valuable forests. —_> —-— At Eluawood, there isa branch ef the Thomasville shuttle block factory, which is duing a big business. They have closed down work for the season. The capacity of this mill is one theusand blocks per day. The eutire out-put is shipped direet to Londou, Eug. They also pre- pare ashe and birdseye maple for the car manufactories at Manchester and Augusta. The mills are now engaged io preparing these woods, and these two car shops take the entire product. Daring the last eigthteen months they have ship- ped some thirty thousand dollars worth of material. From Concord Times. The Installation, Last Friday evening the Concord Presbytery assembled, (a called meeting) at the Presbyterian church, to attend to some busivess that was vot ready to be acted on, atthe last regular meeting of the Presbytery, and to make preparations for the installation of the Rev. C. M. Payne to the Pastorate of the church. After tinishing the business the Pres- bytery adjourned until eight o'clock p.m., at which hour the congregation assembled and the installation seryices were held. The Rev. Dr. Rumple of Salisbary— mod- erator of the Presbytery—preached the sermon and asked the usual questions of the pastor elect, and congregation, The charge to the Pastor was given by the Rev. Mr,;Arrowgod of Norwood, Star- ly county, and to the people by the Kev. Mr. Wharey, of Rocky River chureh. The services, selemn and deeply inter- esting were opened with a beautiful over- ture by the choir and organ.

Mr. Arrewood was fervent, earnest, }and exceedingly appropriate, an exhorta- |tion to laber in this vineyard, fer the Master, and lead this people in the way that leads to righteousness and eternal life. The charge te tke people by the Rev. Mr. Whary was earnest, pointed, and eminently in place. Bro.

Curcaco, Jane 6.—One hour anda half before the time for the convention to assemble vast crowds of e were in front of entrances waiting for the deors to open. It seemed as if there had been no change from last night when thousands demanded admittance to the hall already erowded. Doorkeepers, policemen and the sergeant at-arms exercised great pa- tience and there was little irritation. The ramor this morning iu the air is that the independents, alarmed at the strong Blaine demonstration last night, have determined to cast the votes of the States of Massachusetts and Verment on the second ballot for Gen. W. T. Sherman. This ramor is spreading rapidly and creating alively interest. It was ten mivates past the hour for meeting when the gavel fell and the sessiou was opened with prayer. One of the Alabama dele- zates was absent—sick. The rote of Arkansas, as announced on the first bal- lot, was challenged by ene ef the dele- gates, but on acall of delegates the re— sult was the same as originally anneun- ced. The vote was announced at 4:40 for Blaine. Instantly and even before the last figures were pronoanced by MePher- sop, the vast audience arose and broke out into another mad demonstration of enthusiasm. Cheers resounded, the band strack up an inspiring air; hate, hand- kerchiefs aud natioval flags were waved; a large, square banner frem Kansas was carried through .the ball, promising a large majority in that State for Blaine, with its two uprights capped with vew brooms, and a staffed eagle from Colorade was also carried along in the procession. The roar of artillery outside was heard combining with the louder roar of voices inside, and amid great enthusiasm the nomination was wade unanimous. The vote was received with enthasiasm the band playing and caunon booming. The streets were tbronged with excited people, all cheering wildly. At 4:45 Baine’s nomipation was made unanimyas. The convention adjourned until 8 p.m. ‘The evoning session began 8:15 and the call of States for the presentation of candidates for Vice-President began. No response was made until Illinois was reached, when Senator Plumb, of Kansas, woek the stand to present Logan’s pame. The meution of this pawe was received with great and long continued cheering. Houk of Tennesse; Thurston, of Nebraska; Bradley, ef Kentacky; Horr of Michigan; Lee, of Pennsylvania; Pettibone, of Ten- nessce, and Lee, of South Caroliva, all seconded Logan. A motion was made to nominate Logan by acclamation, but a call of the rell was demanded and the motion was withdrawn. At 9:32 p. m. Logan was nominated by acclamation. The resalt was received with cheers and the conveution at once began breaking ap. The convention was again called to order after the chajrman had auuounced Logan's nomivation by acclamation and on a roll call of States all voted solidly tor Logan, except New York, which cast 1 vote for Foraker and 6 for Gresham, The convention formally adjourned at 9:55 p.m. — _~>- - —_ -—— The Republican Ticket. . The chief significance of Mr. Bluine’s nowination for us, in North Caroljna and in the other Southern States, is that it will strengthen every State Demoeratic ticket inthe South. All the Southern Republicans, it may fairly be said, were of course for Mr. Arthur; and now they are atsca. The ‘organization” is disap- pointed. Besides, almost any other cau- didate would arouse more enthusiasm in the South. Mr. Blaine became prominent first and chiefly by reason of his vigor- ous support, during the era of reconstrac- tion, of every measure that was peculiar- ly objectionable to the Southern people, Ho isa very strong man, 8 man whose ability and daring are second to no liv- | ing Repablican. Bat his record is full of provocations for the harshest criticism. There are many Republicans in the North who wil] not become enthusiastic—many who will not even support him. Such prominent journals as the New York Times aud the New York Evening Post will not fall into line. ‘The Post has at- tacked him with a severity that no Democratic journal ean hope to outdo. It is the first time since the war that the Republican party has pomjoated a candidate whe was not a soldier—and the tirst time that New York and Ohio and Indiana have all three been Jeft withoat an especial effurt to win them in the se- lection of the ticket. Mr. Logan is, perhaps, the most bitter man in the Senate.—State Chronicle. >> - -— When we leave the period of Azoic questions and come tothe Age of Mao, there are three mattera embraced in the Republican platform that really concern the people of this country at the present time, aud of these two are treated ia the most cowardly and dishonest manner. Oue is the question of the revenue. The burden of Federal taxation is oppressive and badly adjusted. How shall it be lift- ed and made easier? That is a living question. The convention answers it with a series of declarations, which are to the last degree dishonest and evasive in spirit and intent, and so far as they contain any definite dectrine, are stupid- ly wrong. Under a cload of phrases, bor- rowed from the essays of protectionist professors, the platform is framed to con- ceal the purpose of its authors to promote the maintenance of those taxes on the materials and instruments of industry and on the necessaries of life which are the worst features of our tariff. And if this purpose were not perfectly plain to the intelligent reader, it js made so by the demand for a higher tax on foreign wool, a demand that for greed and, ignor- ance and impudence is not tq be surpass- ed. The Republican party had a right te expect of its representatives that they should place it before the country as aim- ing at some practicable and intelligible reduction of our oppressive taxation, and all that it has got, iu plain Euglish, is a demand for a higher tax ou the material of clothing. * * * Aa forth tedious staff that makes up the rest of this remarkable production we shall not weary our renders by comment upon it. —New York Times. .- Don’t Depend on Father. Come here, young man, and let as talk to you. You have trusted alove to the contents of your father’s purse, or his fair fame, for your influence or success in business. Think you that ‘father’ has attained to eminence iv his profession bat by unwearied industry f or that he has amassed a fortune bovestly without energy or activity? You should know that the faeu'ty requisite for the acquir- ing tame or fertune is essential to, nay inseperable from, the retaining of either of these. Suppose ‘father’ has the ‘rocks’ in abundance, if you have never earned anything for him, yon have no more business with those rocks than a gosling has with a tortoise! and if he allows you to meddle with them until you have gained them by yourown iudustry, le perpetrates untold mischief. Andif the old gentleman is lavish of his cash towards you, while he is allowing you to idle away your time, you'd better leave him; yes, ravaway, sooher than be an imbecile or something worse through so corrapt an influence!

These beds are destined ‘to form the basis of great enterprise in the shape of the mannfacture of of sulphurie acid, which is used to convert the inseluble tricaleic ur bone phosphate into the soluble or super- phosphate, Many countios in Alaba- ma contain beds of iron pyrites, which are bound to furnish the material for this manufacture.

The superficial information. The farmer | is more to himself, and those who are his most frequent jos are un- educated people. His businéss touches all the departments of political econo- my. He isan employer of labor, a wholesale and retail buyer and seller, usually either a borrower or a lender of money, and often both. He is more interested in foreign trade than any other class of producers, for the larger part of our exports is of farm products. The farmer has in general more use for composition and rhetoric and elocu- tion than has the merchant, Farmer's clubs are more general than mercantile associations. Commercial journals are usually written by paid professionals, Agricultural journals are mostly made up of articles from the farmers them- selves. The farmer takes more part in local political affairs than the citizen, and | has more individual influence. Hence the use to him of accurate knowledge of the history of our country, and of the nature and principles of its govern- ment. We might extend further the chances which the farmer has for the advanta- geous use of general knowledge; but enough has been brought forward to Jewish trumpets, that made the walls of Jericho fall, were only ram’s horns; | their flute was the same as the Egyp-| tian ; they had no other instrumental | music but by percussion, of which the greatest blast was the psaltery, a smal] triangulyr harp or lyre, with wire strings, and struck with an | iron needle or stick ; their sackbut | was something like a bagpipe ;| the timbrel wasa_ tambourine, and | ‘the dulciaer was a horizontal harp: |with wire strings and struek with a) stick like the psaltery.

Leaving the difficult question, how to secure at once a liberal, uncrowded ness, we have a few words to say about a class of boys and young men who neither go into business nor take up professions —farmers’ boys usually be- gin their apprenticeship early. They seldom go to school for the whole year, time. As a result, at sixteen, they are about as far advanced with their stud- ies as the continuous pupil is, at thir- teen. But as an offset to thi#, the far- mer’s boy at sixteen has learned his bu- siness.as well as the trade bay will have | learned his by the time he is twenty- one. The former may, therefore, de- yote to study the intervening five years and still become of age with a satisfac- tory knowledge of both the theory and practice of his business. encourage more of the farmef boys to use, tothe full possible limit, this chance of later education. We wish mose of the parents of these to inquire how far it is necessary, and wise, and just, to require their sons to do the work of an ordinary farm-hand, after they are thoroughly tamiliar with all the ordinary operations of farm work, but before any responsibility for gen- eral management is laid upon them. When parents cannot afford to spare their sons, it is right to require their help. But in many cases this is not really needed, and then, we believe, it is usually the duty of the parents to ive at least five months’ schooling in each year, till the boy has responsible duties which require his attention the year round. To’ a considerable extent these remarks will apply as truly to the farmers’ daughters as to the sons. The farmer has, perhaps, more need of a broad school education than the citizen. The latter is thrown in con- taet with so many people that he can- not help gathering a Jarge amount of the greatest | |agonies at such a concert,— Chicago \lian, ig an unsolvedproblen:, as the better | nerth | education, and a timely start in busi-| but help on the farm about half the| We wish to} show that the farmer can use a_ varied education more profitably than a mer- chant or manufacturer, and can better afford the time needed to acquire it.— The Student. ’ —- ——~- Ee — A Locomotive Runs Away.

The Democratic House has passed a bill putting all grain distilleries that use only ten bushels of grain a day on the same footing as fruit dis- tilleries, and also allowing the sccre- tary of the treasury to put all distil- leries using 25 bushels ef mash on the same footing. The bill also cuts down the pay of storekeepers and gaugers to $2aday. This measure will rid this State of a large number of idle revenue officers, whose sole business has been to annoy and harrass our people. It will relieve the internal revenue system of its most odious fea- tures. This has been done by a Dem- eratic House, It has been plished chiefly by the unremitting ex- ertions of our North Carolina mem- bers. [Let the people remember this. accom- of the reyenuers.

A Governor’s Testimony. Simmons Liver Regulator has been in use in my family for some time, and I am satisfied it is 3 valuable addition ta tne medical science. Girt SHorter, Governor of Ala. Hon. Alexander H. a. of Ga., says: Have derived some benefit from the use of Simmons Liver Regulator, and wish to give it a further trial. “The only Thing that never fails to Relieve.”—I have used many remedies for Dys- ia, Liver Affection and bility, but never ave found anything to benefit me to the extent Simmons Liver Regulator has. I sent from Min- nesota to Georgia for it, and would send further for such a medicine, and would advise all who are sim- ilarly affected to it a trial as it seems the only thing that never fails to relieve. P. M. Janney, Minneapolis, Minn. Dr. T. W. Mason says: From actual ex: perience in the use of Simmons Liver Regulator in my practice I have been and am satisfied to use and prescribe it as a purgative'medicine.

C., JUNE 19, 1884. James G. Blaine is a menace of evil to the republic. Of all the citizens that were proposed to the assembly of partisan electors Monday, and of all whose names have been mentioned in connection with that office, Mr. Blaine is the least fit, the least trustworthy. He is, perhaps, the most intense par- tisan in America, Moreover his par- tyism is not the partyism of a states- man who is guided by sincere convic- tions founded on broad knowledge and understanding. It is the party- ism of a mere passion fur leadership actuating aman of intense prejudi- ces, of ugly temper, and of defective understanding, whose highest happi- ness is in playing the ring-leader in a disturbance. Boston Herald, (Ind.) It is perhaps well, as we suggested a few days ago, when the nomination of Mr. Blaine began tu seem inevita- ble, that the party should ask the judgment of the people under the leadership of a candidate who embo- dies more completely than any other man the real spirit of Republicanism. Believing that Blaine would be a bad and dangerous President, we hope to sce him defeated. Believing him to be a weak candidate, we expect to see him defeated. His zealots say he can be elected without the State of New | York. They will have a chance to Perhaps they think he can | be elected without the help of Massa- ' chusetts. It is net improbable that ,they may have achance to test this If the Democrats rise to the occasion, nominate prove it. also.

Veatch, now of Nye county, Nevada, but formerly of Cincinnatti, writes home telling of a mob out West and how it was dis- persed. He says: A few years ago, in the county ‘next adjoining Nye (Nev.) on the east, at the town of Eureka, where there ure large silver smelting works, ‘using an immense amount of char- ‘coal, which is supplied from the 'mouatains mostly by Italian coal burners, they struck for a rise in price, and would allow no one to bring coal in town, There were some 1,500 of them in the business. The sheriff telegraphed the gover- nor that he feared a riot. That morn- |ing a man came in and said the burn- ‘ers were assembling mounted and | armed, and intending to come to ‘town. The sheriff jumped on his ‘horse, armed with a Henry rifle and ‘revolver. Before he got out of town lhe hallooed to six men to arm = and ltotlow him and meet him at a certain He could have had han- place. a dred meu if he had said so. Meeting at the place he said: “I’m going to make a speech to that crowd, and they must and shall listen to me. Tie your horses boys, our Henrys are good for sixteen shots each, and our Colts fur six each. Now don’t shoot until I say the word, and not unless they defy me.” Then on those seven men went on foot, about a quarter of a mile, and came to the strikers, ful- ly 1,200 men mounted and armed, but sober, though like their race they became very excited on seeing seven armed men coming toward them. The leader rode down on them fol- lowed by the whole gang. The sher- iff said: “You know I’m the sheriff. You are an uvlawful crowd, You must disperse.” “To perdition with you and the law,” and all that vast crowd were riding round that little band of seven men, with fearful oaths in their own language. “Boys,” said the sheriff, “look sharp!” ly the leader cursed aud defied them. At the word “fire” the sheriff killed the leader, and seven bodies rolled from their saddles, and the quick re- peating rifles killed twenty of them befure their horses could take them out of range. Had the seven kept their horses so they could have pur- Furious- sued them, many more would have been killed. They didn’t think the sheriff meant anything more than talk. Had they got into town aad whiskied, there would have been ao awful riot, So severe was the lesson ————$—$——— and so many mounted men were seen by the Italians urging their borses toward Eureka, they fied further into the mountains, thinking the whites were rallying to again slaughter them. That determined sheriff in a few days went out to their haunts and told them they could returu to their business and wouldn’t be molested. “But if you break the laws you'll suffer worse next time.” One said: “Pini Garlici’s horse threw him, poor fellow! and one of your men shot him.” The sheriff told them they could go to town and get the bodies. A few went in, but they felt safest when the sheriff was in sight. Many left the county, and there has never beeu any more coal- burners attempting to defy the law. ape Our Vice Presidents. Baltimore Sun. In discussing the question of Presi- dential nomination, the Philadelphia Bulletin suggests that as four out of the twenty-one individuals who have been occupants of the White House were Vice-Presidents, it is obviously the duty of nominating conventions to attach more importauce to the proper filling of the Vice-Presiden- tial office than they have generally done in recent years. Tyler served three years and eleven months of Harrison’s term. Fillmore two years and eight months of Taylor’s term. Johuson three years and ten mentbs of Lincoln’s second term, and Arthur when next March he completes his present period of office, will have served three years and six months of the term for which Garfield was elect- ed. As about twenty per cent., there- fore, of our Presidents during the past ninety-five years were elected as Vice-Presidents, it is plainly incum- bent on eyery nominating convention, following the intent of the constitu- tion, to nominate to the second place on the natioual ticket as will, in case of need, be a suitable substitute for the President, and not put in so re- sponsible a place some wooden-head- ed individual whose selection is cal- culated solely with reference to the supposed “claims” of a certain section or faction. Ofthe four Vice-Presi- dents who have been called on to service a8 President, the last two are not universally regarded as well fitted for the place. Still less, in popular estimation, were such men of negative ability as Wheeler and Hamlin qual- ified for the place they might have been required to fill. In the early days of the republic abler men were chosen to preside in the Senate, and be at hand to sustain, if oceasion should demand, the duties of the Presidential office. Adams, for ex- ample, served twice with Washing- ton, Jefferson with Adams, Aaron Burr and George Clinton with Jeffer- son, the latter again with Madison, ‘Tompkins with Monroe, and Van Bu- ren with Jackson, Even thegreat Cal- houn served twice in the Vice-Presi- dential office. There has been du- ring the last two decades of our his- tory a trifle too much, perhaps, of mere trading politics in the choice of V ice- President. ee The New York Baptist Weekly for the present week says: “The Baptist Weekly has a special sphere. Its aim is to give all who read its pages religious news and to discuss such topics as are adapted to enlarge the range of Christian intelligence and develop and direct the Christian activities of the churches. Moral questions as affecting political moye- ments also come within the legiti- mate province of religions journalism. On this ground we have not hesitated to speak on party issues which clear- ly involved principles of morality, believing that there is an obvious re- lation between politics and _ piety. Holding firmly to this view, we rec- ognize a moral obligation to express an emphatic dissent from many of the sentiments embodied in the platform of the Republican convention at Chi- cago, and the means adopted to effect the nomination of the national can- didates. But waiving, for the pres- ent, the discussion of these questions, the public record of the Hon. James G. Blaine is such as does not com- mend him to our judgment as a fit man to hold the highest place in the gift of our republic. Cesar’s wife should be above suspicien, and a man who aspires to the presidential chair should be above the charges which dishonor the official life of Mr. Blaine. Hon. Carl Schurz arrived in St. Louis Monday. He declined to be interviewed, but authourized the an- nouncemennt that he would not sup- port Mr. Blaine.

The Voice of the Press. — Philadelphia Record, Ind. Dem. Mr. Tilden has at last been heard from over his own signature in regard to tlie Presidency. He deems his ‘public career forever closed,” and feels that he ought not to be a candidate. He shoujd bhaye been more definite. Washington Post, Dem. This must settle all controversy. The Democratic statesman destined to enter the White House on the 4th of Mareh next, as a President of the Uvited States, nay be a Bayard, @ Cleveland, a Carlisle, a McDovald, but it will not be Samuel J. Tilden. ‘The Demacrat- a Morrison or je field is clear. New York Sun, Ind. Dew. In words that convey as well as: words can the unglterable resvlution of a imiud lofty in its unselfish patriotism, Mr. Til- den repeats bis meseage of four years ago to the Democratic party. The cousider- ations that moved him then are those which now determine his course. The letter printed this) morning has been written only because a great majority of the Demoerptic voters of the Jand still looked with a lingering hope to the man whom they elected cight years age, and who persouities the vital principles and ideas that will prevail with Democratic victory. The nomination was his. He cannot accept it. | N.Y. UHorald, Ind. Mr. ‘Tilden refuses “definitely”? to ae- cept the Democratic nomivation for the have given especially great prominency in the canyass to the villiany and corrap- tion of the RepuWican party, and would force a3 the champion of the cause of the people against an official oligarchy deter- mined tu hold en ty power at any priee. |For that reason it would have been well | if he could have accepted the nomivation land we do not believe that his age would | have untitted him fora vigorous discharge }of the duties of his office, But if it) is j} doubtful whether any other candidate can call out so absolutely the whole vote some others perhaps only a triflle less satisfactory to Democratic opinion will be a great deal more satisfactory to a vote that is to be of much moment in this elee- licans. Philadelphia Times, Ind. Rep. Mr. Tildeu’s letter to the chairman of the Democratic State committee of New | York must be accepted as p definite refu- sal of a uomination for the Presidency. This withdrawal was made ju geod time. It was not made potil it had become evi- dent that without it Mr. Tilden would certainly be nominated by the Democrat- ic Convention, nor has it beev delayed too lopg tu give ample opportunity for public sentiment to concentrate upon the most fitting candidates. State Convention, which meets vext week will exert a great and possibly determin- ing influnence in this selection, if its ac tion be such as to carry any of the weight | that would have attached to its preseuta- }tion of Mr. Tilden; and if the name of Governor Cleveland be presented with japything like unavimity—as it very | probably will be now, in spite of the ri- diculous boom of Mr. Flower—it will jhave a deservedly great influence in the | National Convention. Mr. Cleveland is | only one of several public men of tried jability whom the withdrawal of Mr. Til- ; den now brings into prominence. | New York Times, Rep. But the vital point in what Mr. Tilden wishes or Mr. Tilden’s strength, had spok- en clmost without a dissenting voice iu favor of his nomivation at Chicago. He puts away a Presidential nqmination he might have bad, an act which has few precedents in the history of parties in this country. That act is extremely creditable to the good sense and to the |clear perception of Mr. Tilden. In the | present divided condition of the Repabli- can party itisanact of great moment and promise, It removes from the Dem- cratic party a prospeetive candidacy pendent vote which the Democratic party The New York | —— «+ p= : can bring into glliaee with iteelf ia the | comjng canvass. Mr. Tilden’s own pro- feasions of solicitade for the welfare of the Guvernment and the people of the United States may be taken, as an assu- rance of his purpose to use his great in- fluence jn the councils of his party to promote the nomination of a candidate for the Presidency who will present with- out confusion or evasion the one clear isaue which the action of the Republican party invites and makes eminently desi- rable, the candidacy of an unassailable Democrat against a Republican who has been saccessfully assailed. Baltimore Sun, Ind. Dem. The situation created by Mr, Tilden‘s refusal to be again the party’s candidate ia a most interesting one. Most Demo- crats will pow turn to such meu as Bay- ard of Delaware, and Cleveland, of New York, whose offjcial careers have been such as to commend their wisdom and patriotism to the approval of the best men of both parties. If the New York Independent Republicans are to be con- sulted, the candidates for the Democrats to consider in the order of their availa- bility are Cleveland, Carlisle, Bayard and Morrison. : Sayannab News, Dem. His letter will be read with interest throughout the country, It is a wise and statesmanlike jetter, and fully sus tains the great reputation which Mr. Tilden enjoys. The discussion of the merits of the different candidates will vow begin. There is no daubt, however, that Bayard is the favorite, and that Cleveland ranks next tohim. Of course, with Tilden the fraud issue drops out of the campaign. It is practically a dead issue anyway. ee For the Watchman. Mr. Vernon, N.C., June 16, ’84. Mr. J. J. Bruner: Your recent remarks in disparagement of the mills in our rural districts are tiuc- jtured with an injustice, for this section jat least, which needs to be rectified. I shall not offer a needless apology for attempting to correct the wrong impres- |sion about to be made on persons at a | distance ; but rely on your character for | fairness and iptegrity to print, and to |answer, as you deem fit. | Your correspondent is an intermediate | neighborhood customer of two of the best | |merchant mills in Westeru Carolina— | |Mr. Tobias File’s on the one hand, and | | Messis. Vauglin & Cranford’s (lessees) injure bat to notify country millers of what was going on on this subject of flour here around us. Mr. Hall’s remarks in behalf of the millers he mentions, ap- plies with equal force to many others io the country. Wedo not know that any one of them is better prepared than avother to produce fine results; but we do know that we have vever yet met with homemade fleur which would pro- duce such beaotifal bread as that which we have alluded to above. We admit that the most “beautifal” is not always the best. We are aware that adultera- tion of flour is practiced to a large extent by northeru mills, and that the beautifal article eold at Richmond aod Baltimore may be impure, or may be stripped of everything except the starch in the grain. If this be the fact in regard to them, and the contrary is true as to the floar made at home, then the home article should be preferred on the scure of health, notwith- eye. Itis said of northern and eastern millers that they prepare the least valua- ble part of the wheat for man’s consump- tion, and the richest, most nutritive part is sold as feed fur cows and pigs. True or false, if itis not possible to make a beaatifal flour for man’s consumption without separating from it those parts essential to his health and support, there is vo ground for controversy, and we shall leave our coantry millers with the hope that they may always make a good hon- est flour though it may not rival the suow for whiteness. , - a pom The University Normal School.

Here he earned his living as the hardest worker in ahard working faculty in training the youth of the country up te the very hour of the paralytic stroke which immediately pceceded his death. Gen.

W. Rumpce, vu STATESVILLE FeMALe COLLeGe.—The Commencement Exercises and annual concert came off last week. The Land- mark, iu speaking of the coucert says among other things, that ‘Miss Rumple’s rare masical gifts and accomplishments were amply reflected by the pupils, who evidenced, many of them in a remarkable degree, the power of the training which they have received at her hands. The almost perfeet elocution of the young la- dies, who added this feature to the enjoy - ments of the evening, were none the less eloquent of bow well Miss MacCall has done her work and impressed heraclf upon thew, This branch is certainly taught in this institution in a degree of marked excellence, and fortunate is the child which bas the benefit of such struction. It is difficult to particularize in speak- jog of an entertainment which was 80 uviforw in its excellency, but that Misses | Twitty and Wood played beautifully ; | that Miss Simonton sang quite well, Mr. Mayerberg surprisingly sv and Miss Bra- dy as sweetly as she always does; thut Miss McCorkle played brilliantly and that the closing selection ef the evening, by Misses Rumple aud McCorkle, was won- | derful, and the event of the occasion— this much deserves to be said. Misses Connelly and Harrill brought down the} house by their recitations, and those of Misses Wallace and Hampton’ were marked by dramatic force of an uncom- mon order. . . . . . jo~ | If anything could add to the high esti- mation in which this community hold Miss Everitt’s school, what was eeen and heard last evening would cause it to be more highly regarded this morning than it bas ever been before. Certainly the people of Statesville should be very proud of it and guard it as the apple of their eye. : eo _ For the Watchman. Mr. Eprrok: As these are the days for all kinds of societies. (and some of doubt- ful good)’ allow me to suggest through our paper the propriety of Rowan’s having and Agricultural Society. This, it seems to we, would be of great practical value to our farmers and to all our vari- ous business iuterests, I am a farmer, and wish to know how many of iny fellow laborers approve the proposition; 80 speak out, farmers, shall we have an Ag- ricultural Society iu Rowan ? AGRICOLA. ---e-—— Struck by Lightning. Last Monday about 12 o’clock, Mr. H. R. Estes, living about a mile and a half above Moores’ store in the Globe, was hauling sand near his house for use in a brick yard. He was standing by the wagon shoveling the sand in when his two horses were struck by lightning and instantly killed and the bolt passed toa small sycamore under which they were standing, then followed a grape vine to the ground, and struck Mr. Estes, leaving #h abrasion of the skin on his back and arm. He says that daring the whole time he was never insensible. He saw the horses fall dead, felt himself stricken, fell over upon his little son who was be— side him and was totally unable to help himself. He did not hear the report which was said to have been load. It rained very hard after the thunderbolt. Mr. Estes was carried to the house and life was dispaired of until the next mor- ning, when he was some better though suffering very much. His pains are de- scribed as intense. He felt as though he were on fire aud that Ins arms and legs were about to burst open. The litrle boy pf emergeney, when called upon. | Dr LW Coleman, A W Klattz, Dr R was uninjared.— Lenoir Topie, The Shaford Gold Mining Company in Catawba connty have stepped operations for the on account water in the drifts. The exceasive rains last winter and this sprivg having,raised rae a tape 06 he on w nee Aagust, aoderground, and for further operations require a pamp, which the owners expect to putin at once. In patting in pamp several changes will be made, as the orig- inal plant was put up for placer mining, and this mode of mining was discontin- ved in August 1883. Granire.—Mr. J. D. Stewart has an order for four thousand eight hundred ranning feet of granite curbing, from Hickory, N.C. That town proposes to carb the side-walks, and ber citizens have selected the best’rock in the State for the purpose. The Duon’s Mountain Quar- ries are capable of prodncing more rock and at less expense thun any quarry in the State. epee as TALc AND MARBLE.—Mr. McDimott, at Pigeon River, and Mr. J. H. Enoniss, of Salisbary, have two very large bodies of Tale and Marble. Blocks of tale weigh- ing 2500 pounds and apwards, can be ta- ev out entire. The seam of talc pow un- covered is 50 feet wide and about 4 mile in length. Blocks of marble 30 feet long that will square 6 feet without seam or crack may be quarried. , The quantity of both is practically inexhaustible and right on the railroad. These deposits are in Haywood. Prof. Geo. B. Mint says: There is no ciange of importance in mining work in N.C.; the producing mines keep up their avera work fairly well, auda few like the Hoover Hill are even more active than during 1883. The deposits at the U.S. assay office show that there is somewhat more ac- tivity in the Portis mine neighborhood, Nash county. The oivuntain placer production in Burke, aud McDowell counties has de- creased a little, and similar work in Montgomery and Stanly counties bas apparently increased. The yield of Polk county has rot changed, and the mines at work iv the autumn of 1883 are still at work, In the immediate viciuity of Charlotte the situation is unchanged. The Arling- ton is drifting on two veius at the depth of 130 teet, with «a moderate supply of ore; the Ruadisil is sinking aud drifting with a fair prospect of svou reaching its “shoot” at the depth of nearly 350 feet. The Saiut Catherine, at the depth of 250 feet, has for some time been in a good body of sulphurets of shipping grade; a concentration plant has been arranged for and partly pat up, it being the inten- tion, as there is very little freé milling ore, to concentrate the sulphurets up toa point that will allow of shipping vorth for smelting. At the Wilson in South Carolina only development work bas thus far been at- tempted, buta pluntof wachinvery will probably soon be erected. Hydraulic work at the Hammett ~——>- ——— Hanna ot the Chariotte in | Spartanburg county, is prosecuted favor- ably, The West and the Thomsou in Union county coutinue their usual onerations. The Funderburla in Lancaster county started up its battery on the 9th, aud as there is a considerable dump of ore, the prospect is tuvorable fora good cam- | paign. Atthe Haile, in the same county the customary work continavas though re~ cent explorations have ancovered av im meuse body of ore, which their present redaciug wachinery is inadequate to treat. ‘Their reserve damps is increas—- ing rapidly at the rate of several han- dred tons per month. Av evlarged plant of machivery is contemplated, Superinteudent Motz of the Brewer in Chesterfield county keeps up his usual work withoat important changes, The immense resources of this spleudid tract of 900 acres has hardly been touched. —— Announcement. Morcanton, N.C., June 13, 1883. To the Friends and Patrons of the Moun- tajneer : On Suuday morning, Jane 8th, our Le- voir office, where the Lenoir Topic and the outside pages of the Mountaineer have been priuted up to this time, was destroy - ed by fire, entailing upon the publishers a loss of between $1,500 and $2,000, and in consequence of this unforeseen loss we are compelled to suspend the publication of the Mountaineer until new material aud a new stock of paper can be secured. We regret this step exceedingly, and wil make the term of suspension as short as possible under the circumstances, hoping to be able to greet our many readers in time to aunouuce the proceedings of the Democratic State Convention, which meets on Juve 25th, aud to give thema llive, vigorous Democratic paper duriug the approaching campaign. Ip the mean- time, we hope that all who owe us for subscriptions or advertising will come forward and settle their accounts prompt- ly. as our losses have been heavy and our expenses in rehabilitating both offices will have to be met at once.

WASHINGTON, June 18.—A very careful examination of the records of Blaine and Logan has already begun. proof by gentleman in this city that at the beginning of the war he was as bitter in his opposition’ to what he called the coercing of the Southern States as any To one gentlemen, now living here, who met Logan on March 9, 1861, Logan said that he regarded the attemp of Lip- coln to coerce sovereign States as un- constitutional and infamous, and if it was persisted in he would ‘go to his bome in southern Illinois and ‘raise a regiment to help those States defend secessionist. themselves against Federal encroach- ment.

That Mr. Blaine not only knew who the agents were who went through the South, but also suggested some of them, as certain. Assertions about the use of money to secure his nomi- nation are being made in greater and greater detail. The editor of the Sun- day Capital asserts that money in large quantities was used to secure Blaine’s nomination. Nor was there anything haphazard in the way in which the bribery was done. A man to do the buying was assigned to each of the several delegations from the, South. Thirty votes were wanted not later than the third ballot, and prices were arranged for the first, second and third ballots. It has been asser- ted in detail that $10,000 was sent to the Sherman House for six votes from South Carolina, but Smalls watched his delegation so closely that only two were obtained. sum was ready for six votes North Carolina and Tennessee. It was asserted by a Texas delegate that from $750 to $4,000 had been des- tributed among the delegates from his State. It is probable that the story of Blaine’s have Garfield’s Cabinet during his illness declare that the President was unable to per- form the duties of the office and urge Arthur to assume the functions of the office during the disability will be told. It was believed at the time that nothing but the threat of Mac- Veagh prevented Blaine from over- ruling the rest of the Cabinet who were opposed to this dangerous line attempt to of policy. One of Blaine’s leading managers said yesterday that arrangements were being made for a meeting between Blaine and Conkling early in August. Through the intervention of frieuds a reconciliation has been effected. Ac- cording to this man’s assertfon, Conk- ling is willing to make several speeches for Blaine after the October elections. This assertion agrees with an opinion expressed by Collector Robertson at Chicago. It such action Conkling would probably be returned to the Senate as Lap- was said as a result of bam’s successor. It is apparent that the Blaine man- agers will have no difficulty in rais- ing all the money they want. The Star-routers, witha lively sense of favors to come, will contribute liber- ally, and it is reported that William Walter Phe! p’s individual subserip- tion of $100,000 has been promised. -_- Levity with Letters.

H. Dempsey, a well known bookseller jand stationer of this city, has been arrested on a charge of being connect- ed with navy department frauds. Detective Wm. P. Wood has _repre- sented to the secretary of the navy that he has found evidence of even more extensive frauds in other bu- reaus of the navy department than in that of medicine and surgery. ~ | ae i oe | | NasHVILLE, June 20.—The Dem- ocratic State convention adjourned last night after re-nominating Gov. Bate by acclamation, The platform endorses the administration of Gov. Bate, regards the adjustment of the debt of Tennessee as final, and pledges faithful maintenance of its conditions, and favors a tariff for sufficient reve- nue to defray the expenses of the gov- ernment. “T will not allow any one to say that any man served in the war with more zeal than I did,” is Senator Lo- gan’s blustering way of extolling his own acdent patriotism. Perhaps no- body wants to say that, but we take the liberty without the Senator’s per- mission, of saying (that some men made up their minds on which side to serve with censideraqle more promptness than Johu A. Logan did. Boston Globe. Nordenskjold, the Arctic explorer, is asking Aritish assistance for an ex- pedition to the South, Ships have never approached the Svuth Pole nearer than 2,000 miles. This lost re- gion, 4,000 miles in diameter, re- mains a sealed mystery to the out- side world. WASHINGTON, June 20.—Secretary Chandler has ordered a court of in- quiry to investigate the frauds recent- ly practiced by means of false vouch- ers in the bureau of medicine and surgery of the navy. Another war- rant was sworn out to-day against a prominent Washington stationer nam- ed Dempsey, implicated in these frauds. New York, June 20.—Cornelius K. Garrison has assigned to John Ts Perry, preferences $631,000. Paris, Ky., June 20.—Rev. Geo. T. Gould, president Millersburg Fe- male College, has assigned, liabilities unknown, assets $13,000.

He said the Anglo-Saxons of North QOasrolina would carry the State certainly and surely. He pledged his services to the cause of Demo cracy. His remarks were well received. Hon W. H. Kitchen in response to calls said he was glad tosee the great harmony hers manifested, and that the high pur- pose toaid the State and the Demooratio party, which are one and the same, was plain. He pledged hisgaid. He urged action, saying there weald be no walk- over. Mr. J. W. Reid, chairman of the com- mittee on credentials submitted his re- port, Granville was allowed 14 votes, Hali- tax 14, Pamlico 5, Pasquotank 5, Warron J, by the committee. The report was al] favorable save as to Montgomery, Clay aod Transylvania, which were represented by proxy, but whose proxy was not upon the floor. He had delegated his right to another person. There was considerable discussion about this matter, participated in by Messrs. W. B. Glenn, H. A. Gudger, Geo. H. Brown, H. C. Jones and others, Mr. Womack moved that all the report, save that relating to Ulay, Transylvania sod Montgomery counties, be adopted. Mr. John Gray Bynum moved that the county of Montgomery be declared to ba properly represented. This action was taken. 1t was announced that the proxy of Clay was present. Governor J. L. Robinson moved that the county of Transylvania be regarded as properly rep- resented, That the county should not be deprived of ita vote because of a failure to comply with the rcjuirements of the plan of organization. Tuere following quite a live!'y argument between Gov. Kobinson and Col. ti. C. Jones. Mr. F. H. Basbee poured oil on the troubled waters in a vig- orous speech. Mr. E. 8. Parker made an explanation of the matter before the ore- dentials committee, saying the credentials from Clay were entirely irregular. Mr. Kope Elias at last said he had the pro- ceedings of Clay convention, and read a letter from the .lerk of Clay Superior court, saying to him (Mr. Klias) that he hal seen two of the delegates and they de- sired him to represent them. Mr. E. 8. Par ker said this was most irregular and the au~ thority tooslight After remarks by Messrs. Jobn Gray Bynum and KR. M. Furman, a vote was taken upon the question whether Clay and Transyivania be allowed votes, Mr. T. D. Johnston representing the lat- ter, Mr. Kope Hlias the former. lay was then admitted, as was also Transyi- Vania, and the report thus amended was adopted. The discussion of all this mat- ter vccupied about an hour, The next business was the serious basi- ness of the convention, the selection of a candidate for Governor. The president declared nominations in order. Mr. Henry R. Bryan, of Craven, pre- scented the name of Gen. Alfred M. Scales, of Guilford. [he scene was a wild one, the house burst into cheers. Mr, Bryan said his name and fame were not confined to the State, he pte ride and the glory of his native land? He need not recount the services of"General Seales to his people and to his country; as soldier, as states— man,as North Carolinian, he had adorned all positions, and he would ably and fitly iil the office held by a Ossweil and a grand line of governors. North Carolina had no aon more worthy of honor than Alfred Moore Scales, and let as erect his standard to the breeze,and on the second day of No- vember he will be the Governor of North Carolina, The report was received with tumultuous cheers. Mr. H. G. Connor, of Wilson, io a speech of marked vigor and grace, seeond- ed Gen. Scales’ nomination, saying that he was a superb representative of North Carolina’s noblest men aad her best Democracy. For twenty years he had served his State, ever contributing to her honor and to her material worth and pros- peuty. «le said such ao standard bearer as Scales was oveded now to assure Demo- cratic suocess ; a man who in every walk t life has won the grand old name of “ aman.” Oo Louis Q, Latham, of Pits, rovie | . i i E ER SE S E it Sh a e = as f ic progress. He to upon the folds of the Demo- name that 7 i F L A G all over the State, a man whose sympath was oo—extensive with North Carolina; s man whose efforts in our behalf deserve linian. This man, said he, is Octavius Coke. This announcement was greeted with cheering, which was renewed and revived again, lasting some minutes. Coke's name, said Maj. Latham, is the “open se- same” of success, and his admin- istration would be a credit to every North Carolinian. Mr. W. H. Bower, of Watauga, in seconding the nomination of Capt. Coke, paid him the most graceful compliments, and said that he desired to express the reflection of the people of his section in saying that Coke was their choice. He said Coke's intellect was great, his knowledge comprehensive, and his purity and personal o ter remarkable. He alluded to Tyre York as the renegade from Wilkes, and said Coke was the man to meet and vanquish him. He de- nounced as a falsehood the statement that Capt. Coke was the enemyfof the Wcs'ern North Carolina railroad, and said his su port by the Western counties best dis- proved this. He paid his public services a high compliment and said that though born in Virginia he was all a North Oar- olinian. Mr. R. Z Linney, of Alexander, made ® most practical speech in sup Gen. Scales, saying he had, upon the fiel of war and on the plains of peace, exhib- ited all those traits, those excellencies of character, which adorn and enoble a man. It is in the highest degree necessary that he should be the candidate. He is loved by his old soldiers and by the youngest voters. All love him and all unite in the belief that he is the man for Governor. He is possessed in a remarkable degree of those noble virtues, purity and patri- otism. He would make one of the best ee ever made. ‘The honor is due m. Chas. M. Busbee, Es}, of Wake, in seconding Capt. Ook.'s nomination, thanked, in the name of the people of Wake, the delegates who had so eloquently nominated him and/J. those who supported him. He said that Coke would conduct a more success- ful, a more vigorous and a more earnest can- vass than apy man who oould be nomina. ted. He has imbedded himsclf in the affections of the people of North Carolina, and if he is named as the standard bearer, the county of Wake will be carried by the Democracy and that means five votes for Z B. Vance. Coke is the strongest mano into whose Jhands can be committed the standard of the party. This closed the nominations. Tiere was a call of ‘vote,’ “vote,” and at + 20 the roll of counties was called for the vote. There was a high state of nervous excite ment visible in most of the faces. The ballot was procoeded with in tolerably quiet order. It was soon apparent that Scales was the favorite. When the county of Ratherford was reached his nomination waa seep to be sure,and the conventjon went fairly wild with cheers and applause. There were motions to make the nomination unanimous, but the chair ruled that the roll call must proceed, and the call went on. The counties voting for Scales were cheered in short bursts of applauso. It took some minutes to make the;Scomputation of the vote, and during this time the convention buzzed like a beehive. The hall was packed, all the aisles being full, and it is safe to say the building never held so many people. Before the result of the ballot was an- nounced Capt. Coke, who had been sent for, entered the hall amid great applause. He made one of his finest speeches. te said bis greatest comfort as a soldier in losing his buckler was that such a noble soldier and ebivalrous, Christian gentleman as Alfred Moore Scales had found it. He moved to make the nomination of Gen. Scales unanimous. This evoked the great- est applause heard during the entire con- ventiva. Col. Paul B. Means seconded Capt. Coke’s motion to make the nomination unanimous. The secrotary read the result of the ballot, as follows* Scales, 552, Coke, 244; Holt, 23. The chairman then putthe motion to make the nomination unanimous. It was adopted with a regu- lar roar of voives. Then there were calls for Coke for Lieutenant Governor. Capt. Coke again appeared. He said that if any one thought he was disheartened of discomfited by this defeat he was mistaken. He stood here as he had for sixteen years an uncommissioned soldier, and he stood here as the champion of Alfred M. Scales. Upto to-day he was a hopeful but poorly informed Coke man. Now he was solid and unanimous for Seales. The Democrat who was not with him in this campaign is not worthy of the name he bears or of the’ party. He re- viewed the history of the Republican party and dwelt upon the civil rights plank in the platform of that party, and poured out invective upon Biaine and ogan, who were seeking to force their foul ideas upon our people. He dwelt upon the need of preserving and guarding the liberties of the white men of Kastern Carolina. Hefsaid the Democrats of the State would utterly repudiate and crush Republicanism. Lee it be koown that no inferior race has a right to rule this State and her people. It seemed as if the convention would nominate Capt. Coke in spite of himself. Mr. Charles M. Busbee said that Capt. Coke would not be a candidate. Mejor Charles M. Stedman was then Seg in nomination by Capt. R. B. avis, of Catawba. There were loud and Gap Cha. .

EVENING SESSION. At 8:30 President Ruffin in called the convention to order, on. J. J. y tobacco plant graced the ’s table, replacing the gay roses which adorned it Wednesday. It was a change from the poetical to the practical, 80 to The crowd at the opening was not nearly so large as that of Wedaenday and the order was better. There was no reduction of the number of delegates, for all-their seats were filled; the spectators were \ack- ing. For the crowd in the galleries was “slim.” The exeitement of the day pre- vious and particularly during the night had in great part subsided, but it was lain that but little was necessary to cause t to breax out afresh, The hoarseness of the delegates was a feature of the ses- sion, showing how well the throate had Davis said he had received s dispatch from Gen. A. M. Scales, which he read as fol- lows : Wasuinaton, D. C., June 25, ’84. Hon. J. J. Davis: My gratitude is profound. If possible I shal deserve success. If successful the best services of my head ‘and heart shall be devoted to the welfare of my State. A. M. 8caes. A motion was made that to expedite business no speech shal! exceed five min- utes, The first bysiness was the nomination of a candidate for Auditor. Col. John N. Staples nominated Gen. W. P. Roberts, of Gates. Col. Harry Skinner, of Pitt, seconded the nomination. Randolph A. Shotwell. . Oapt. Swift Galloway nominated Wil- iam A. Darden. Capt. W. W. Carraway seconded Darden’s nomination.

Gidney. The nominstion of Gen. Roberts was then made unapimous. Nominations for State treasurer were next in order. Mr. Charlas M. Busbee laced in nomination Mr. Donald W. in, whom he eulogized in high terms. Mr. Cam. Buxton nominated Mr. James 8. Battle, of Nash. Mr. John M. Mor- ing nominated Hon. John M. Worth. Mr. J. W.

Mr. Samuel J. Pember- ton seconded the nomination of Hon. John M. Worth, to whom he paid the highest compliments. Mr, Frank 0. Robbins, of Davidson, also seconded Dr. Worth’'s nom- ination. Lieutenant Governor J. L. Robinson placed in nomigation Col. Samuel McDowell Tate. Mr. B. H. Bunn seconded the nomination of Mr. Battle. Mr. F. M. Simmons, of Craven, seconded the nomination of Col. Tate. Mr. T. B. Womack seconded Mr. Bain’s nomination. A ballot was taken resulting as follows: Tate, 2584; Bain, 233%; Battle, 1773; Worth, 149. There was no nomination, so the second ballot at once began. In a few moments Mr. Geo. S. Bradshaw withdrew the name of Dr. Worth in favor of D. W. Bain. (Great cheers.] The result was announced as follows: Bain, 4334; Tate, 369 5-6; Battle, 104; Worth. 54Mr. H. A. Gudger moved to make Mr. Bain’s nomi- nation unanimous, and it was done. Nominations for Attorney General were next in order. Hon. Thomas G. Skinner placed before the convention the name of Capt. Robert B. Peebles. Mr. W. B. Glenn made a very strong and able speech in nominatiag Mr. Theodore F. Davidson, of Buncombe. He appealed for the west to the east. Mr. R. Z Linney placéd in nomiaaion Mr. Platt D. Walker, of Mecklenburg. His speech was vigorous and was weil received. Col. Walter L. Steele seoonded the nomination of Mr. Walker. Capt. John HE. Duckett, of Martin, also seconded Mr. Walker. Maj. Goorge H. G placed in nomination Gol, Thomas & Kenan, saying that ten volumes of the Supreme court spoke for him. Mr. John E. Woodard, of Wilson, seconded Col. Kenan’s nomination in grace. ful lan e. Mr. F. W. Btrange, of New Hanover, seconded Mr, D. Walker’s nomination and Capt. Thomas D. Johnston. of Buncombe, that of Mr. Davidson. Mr. Thomas Mason, of Northampton, made «a most for- cible speech in support of Mr. Peebles, in which he thanked the west for the ser- vices rendered the east. His speech was one of the most eloquent delivered during the entire convention. The ballot finally began. The result of the first ballot was announced as foliows : Davidson, 139; Peebles, 217; Walker, 270; Kenan 193. A second ballot was at once taken. It resulted as follows: Davidson, 291; Peebles, 177; Walker, 277; Kenan 74. Mr. H. G. Connor, of Wil- son, withdrew the name of Col. Ke- nan, returning thanks for the support given him. “The third ballot was then taken. The result was follows: David- son, 320; Peebles, 192; Walker, 307. The fourth ballot was then taken. By this time it was long after midnight and the galleries thinned fast, but the excitement on the floor was no whit less than during the long hours of the day. The fourth ballot was as follows: Davidson, 317; Walker, 297; Peebles, 205, A motion was made to adjourn, but the convention voted ssh tho clean ola uindinees ena ae t —o it The fifth ballot began, and in sourse of it Hon. ae G, * ¥ 4 Ry ee a ) ce Capt.

At 10.15 chairman Raffin called the convention to order. The first business was the reading of the plattorm. This was done by Ool. Walter L. Steele, chairman of the committee on resolutions. A motion was made to adopt the report. Ma). Jas. W. Wilson attacked that part of the platform in regard to receiving na- tional aid for education. He asked for a division of the vote upon that resolution. fon. Thos. G. Skinner said this appro- priation was no gift from the national gov- ernment. For twenty years hundreds of thousands of dollars had been taken from the State in internal revenue taxes. He that the resolution be adopted. Mr. Fab. H. Busbee said the resolution should be very carefully worded. He was fearful that under this appropriation for schools lurked the plan of main- taining the infamous internal revenue sys- tem. Ool. W. H. 8. Burgwyn said in Andrew Jackson's time such a bill had passed the Congress of the United States. Are we to take a step backward in refus- ing a gift not coupled with any conditions ? Hon. W. H. Kitchin said he was too much of a Jefferson Democrat to endorse such it illegal and improper. He scorned it as a gift, and declared it was uncoastitutional and undemocratic, and intended to break down our institutions, and he cast all his strength against if. He declared it was an attempt of the government to control the State public schools. He said its adoption would strike the Democratic arty a blow from which it aa never recover. Let us never say that we are in favor of cen- tralization. Mr. J. A. Thigpen endorsed Mr. Kitohin’s remarks. He was opposed to taxation by the national government. Hon. Joseph J. Davis said the question Was 8 difficult one. He described the former appropriation for this purpose, saying that it was very different from the present one as now proposed. All this was breaking down the barriers of consti- tutional government and tending to cen, tralization and consolidation. He moved that the resolution be recommitted to, the committee. Mr. George H. Brown, of Beaufort, offered a resolution as a substitute. Mr. F. H. Busbee offered another resolu- tion. Both of these were referred. Maj. Geo. H. Gregory, of Guilford, gaid he would yield anything save princi- ple to the great Democratic party. He tavored the resolution and thought that in so doing sacrificed no principle. Mr. Frank Caldwell, of Guilford, said he was no quibbler but he thought this plan of instructing our representatives was absurd. fe favored the resolution and believed it would quicken the energies of our people. He said the State was far behind in educational progress. Mr. Cyrus B. Watson, of Forsyth, asked that some action be taken. Time was precious. Maj. Jas. W. Wilson withdrew his mo- tion tor a division, and a vote being taken on Mr. Davis’ motion to rocommit the re- port to the committee on platform, it pre- vailed by an overwhelming vote. The chair announced a meeting of the State executive committee to choose a Central executive committee. The next business in order was the choice of a Superintendent of Pub- lic Instruction. Mr. W. G. Burk- head placed in nomination Major 8. M. Finger, of Catawba. Col. Walter L. Steele nominated Mr. A. H, Merritt, of Chat- ham. Mr. Bond, of Edenton, nominated Mr. John ©. Scarborough. Mr. John D. Stanford, of Duplin, nominated Mr. B. F, Grady, of Daplin. Mr. W. W. Flem- ing, of Mecklenburg, seconded the nomi- nation of Mr. Finger. Mr. W. OC. Troy, of Cumberland, nominated Alexander W. Graham, of Cumberland. Mr. W. T. Caho, of Pamlico, nominated Mr. John S. Long, of Craven. Mr. E A. Alderman, of Wayne, nominated Mr. M. C. 8.

Mr. John Gray Bynum, of Burke, seconded Mr. Finger’s nomination, as did also a delegate from Pender. A from Bunoombe urged Mr. Scarborough’s claims. Mr. Fab. H. Bus- bee, of Wake, endorsed Mr. Scarborough, as did also a delegate from Chowan, while a delegate from Forsyth endorsed Mr. Tomlinson, and one from Chowan seconded Mr. Long’s nomination. Mr. A. D. Jones, of Wake, endorsed Mr. Noble. " | By this time the convention had, as a prominent gentleman on the stage ex~ pressed it, got on “a foil head of steam,” and uae were lively. There was the same notable good humor which has characterized the entire convention. There were calls and cheers and speakers were “snowed under” mercilessly. It was s . f é Mz. Geo: H..

Merrimon’s name was placed in nomination. There were demands for an cleetion by acclamation, and Mr. D. F. Caldwell moved that it be so imade, saying sone pleasart wor<s for Judge Merrimon. The rules were suspended and he was unacimously nominated amidst applause. he members of the Siate executive committee held a meeting to choose a Central «xvoutive committee. The State executive committee is composed of four delegates from each Congressional district, as follows: The first district is represented by Samuel B. Spruill, Frank KE. Vaughan, W. D.

Hach county voted for eight names, it being agreed that the four men receiving the highest votes should be the delegates end the four next highest the alternates. It took a very long time to take the ballot, and the hall ceased to be crowded. Mr D F Caldwell, of Guilford, occupied the chair for a couple of hours, relieving Col, Ruffin, whose discharge of his arduous duties had been so admirable as to win compliments from all who attended the convention. It was after 2 o'clock before the vote was announced, as follows: Thos. Ruffin, 7273; Julian S. Carr, 704; W. T. Dortch, 652; Geo. H. Brown, Jr., 578 (these being the delegates); Richmond Pearson, 460; Charles M. Cooke, 5143 ; Rufus Y. McAden, 549; Walter L. Steele 462 (these being the alternates); E. R. Stamps, 4443; A. H. A. Williams, 418 ; W. F. Beasley, 209; M. J. Hawkins, 99; Octavius Coke, 38; J. E. Woodard, 233; V.V. Richardson, 236. Thenext business was the election of two Presidential electors, The names of Wil- liam M. Robbins,John N. Staples, William H. Kitchin, Octavias Coke,were presented. Mr. Bunn withdrew the name of Capt. Coke by his authority, declaring that his best services should be given the party. Three cheers were then given Capt, Coke. The vote was taken amid cheers for the various candidates. It resulted as follows : Kitchin, 685; Staples, 542; Robbins, 347. Messrs. W. H. Kitchin and John N. Staples were declared to be the electors for the State at large. Mr. B. H. Smith, of Halitax, moved that a committee of three be appointed by the chairman to notify the different gen- tlemen of their nominations by this con vention. The motion prevailed, and the chairman made the following appointmeats : To notify the Governor, Messrs. A. J Galloway, of Wayne, J. J. Davis, of Franklir; Thomas Ruffin, of Orange. To inform the Lieut. Governor, C. W. Mo- Clammy and V. V. Richardson; 10 inform the other officers, J. W. Reid, F. H. Busbee and 8. A. Ashe. Col., John N. Staples again read the platform, particularly that plank in regard to the appropriation for public schools, which in the earlier hours of ihe session had caused so much excitement. Capt. J. R. Thigpen asked that the res olution be again recommitted, saying he didn’s want North Carolina placed under the guardianship of the United States. A lively, in*fact heated dis sussion, arose, and it was evident that the plank was a firebrand. There were calls for a vote, and appeals for the adoption of the platform entire. It was certainly a remarkable scene. Mr. Thigpen was cheered, and his hands were nearly shaken off by those who held his view. Mr. John 8. Henderson said the ques- tion was a living one in North Carolina. He defended the plank in the platform in question, and he called for action of some sort. He thought no Democrat could object to anything in the resolution. He called for the previous ee ee a a ad ¢ On motion of Mr, R.

Resolved, That no government has a right to burden its people with taxes beyond the amount required to pay its necessary expenses and gradually exe tinguish its public debt. And that when- ever the revenues, however derived, ex- ceed this amouat, they should be reduced so as to avoid a surplus in the treasury. We therefore urge upon our Senators and Representatives in Congress to exert them- selves in favor of such legislation as will secure this end. Resolv:d, That w:th respect to the t r ff we reaffirm the life-long and funda- m-ntal principles of. the party as. dedlared in the National Democratic platforms and that the details of the method by which the constitutional revenue tariff shall be gra lually reached, are subjects which the party's representatives at.the federal tal must be trusted to adjust; butin our opinion the duties on foreign importations should be levied for the production of public revenue, and the discriminations in its adjustment should be such as would place the highest rates on luxuries and the lowest on the necessaries of life, distribute as equally as possible the burdens of tax- ation and confer the greatest good to the greatest number of the American people. Resolved, That the course of the Demo- cratic party in furtherance of popular edu- cation, by efficient public schools in all sections, and the establishment of graded and normal schools in the larger towns and accessible certers, is a sufficient tee that we favor the education of all classes of our people and we will promote and im- prove the present educational advan so far as it can be done without burdening the people by excessive taxation. AND WHEREAS, There is now more than a hundred millions, of dollars in the treasury of the United Stater, wrung from the pockets of the people by unjust taxa- tion on the part of the Republican party, therefore, Resolved, That we will accept such dis- tribution of said surplus revenues of the government for educational p ae may be made by the Congress of the United States; provided always, that the same shail be disbursed by State agents and not accompanied by objectionable fea- tures and embarrassing conditions. Resolved, That it is due to the white people of our eastern counties, who have so cheerfully borne their share of our common burdens, that the present, or some other equally effective system of county govern- ment, shall be maintained. Resolved, That in view of the existing and increasing harmony and kindly feel- ing between the two races in this State and a similar condition of things which we believe to exist generally in other South- ern States, we deprecate the attempt of the Republican party in its recent form at Chicago, to force civil rights as a living issue, and we denounce it as a fire- brand and a hypocritical expression of interest in the black race, a wanton insult to the whites of the South, and tending to stir up strife between the now friendly races.

First, it seems, holes were bored by an inch andan eighth auger around the hasp or ketch for the bolt of the lock sufficient to remove it, but finding the door secured with another fastening he then cut out a hole in the bottom pannel of one of the large doors through which he run bis hand and loosed the fastening that held the blind over the glass panuel of the door, when he must have discever- ed the large bar which still secured the doors against his entrance. He then at- tempted to bore away the bar, but the second hole made at this point struck the lower edge of the bar which was for- tunste'y cevered witha splice of sheet fron. He also left signs showing that he started to cut out one of the panes of glass, across which the bar passed, when, perhaps, becomiog frightened he gave up the job.

Bruner: It is searcely necessary for me to say leans Exposition. . —_——— From the State Chronicle. Wassnixeton, D. C., Jane 18.— The mining interests of North Carolina are in their infancy. Granted that it is a pret— ty old infant, bat all the same it still wears its swaddling clothes. My reason for saying this is that the area of miniog lands in your State is so far greater than the development that you have’ scarcely touched the borders of your immense mining resources. ‘Phis has been brought to my attention within a few days by some remarks made by prominent officere of the U. 8. Geological Survey, and by the knowledge that hascome to me of the immense exhibits that are to be made by the National Government, and by the great mining States and Territories of the West of their mineral wealth. I am intensely desirous that the unequalled resources of North Carolina in iron, gold, silver, copper and tip, and in all those miuerals employed in mechanics and the arts, should be 80 broadly illustrated, first at Raleigh and then at New Orleans, as that these competitors of bers shall fail to take the first place in the estima- tion of the world, a place that belongs to North Carolina and that she cau hold against. all competitors, provided the veedful effort is made. In eet ee the file of the Times Democrat of New Orleans recently, I no- ticed than twenty of the greatest jrov mapufacturing houses io Great Britian had made applications for space for the exhibits of their wares and products. It is but another indication of ritish enter- prise, and of the determination of . its shrewd manufacturers to obtain a perma- nent foothold in all the markets of the world. Jobn Bullisa very persistent fellow—he is bever discouraged—and he does not propose to allow the iron mines of America to interfere with his aggran- dizement. J. B. aforesaid will send hun- dreds of his capitalists to New Orleans to see what the South has to show in the way of raw materials, and it depends upon the owners of wiviog property ip your State whether or no its attractions shall be presented io such tangible form to practical British eyes as shall result in the building op of such great farnaces and forges as withio a few years have been erected in Tennesse and Alabama. The eyes of J. B. always keep a sharp lookout for the glitter of gold, and the scintillation of gems. If in addition to splendid displays of these things that l kvow the State Board of Agriculture will embrace in the collection made under its auspices, there sball be farpished it through the instfumentalities of citizens engaged in those industries, first class specimens of all your minerals, ores and gems, an impetus will be given to the | mining industries of your State that will add millionsof dollars to your vested capital and give steady aud remuvera- tive employment to thousands of your) citizens.

The Cincinnati Pablishing Company issue “The Standard Authorized Cam- paigo Biography,” by J. W. Buel, “‘aasis- ted by Mr. Blaine’s private secretary at Washington, D. C., aud by Mr, Hinton Rowan Helper, author of the “Impending Crisis,” (published before the late war,) which obtained acelebrity and circulation beyond that of “Uncle Tow's Cabin.” “Mr. Helper,” the publishing company add, “is now a resident of Washington City, is in tho maturity of his powers, enjoys the good will and confidence of the nation’s leaders, and to Mr Blaine is a close personal friend.” What sort of a helper to the colored people this man is, any ove may discover, by looking into his book, “No Joque,” (published since the war,) the opening sentence of which reads thus: ‘Were | to state here, frank- ly and categorically, that the primary object of this work is to WRITE THE NEGRO OUT OF AMERICA, and that the secondary object is to WRITE HIM, (and manifold millions of other black and bi-colered caitiffs, little better than himeelf,) OUT OF EXISTENCE, God’s simple truth would be told”!!!

North Carolina white men will deal honestly by negroes, treat them with the utmost kind- ness and humanity, will minister to their sufferings, relieve their wants, will build asylums for their unfortunate and schools for their children; iu a word, do every- thing in their power to improve the mor- al, intellectual, social and pblysical con- ditiun ot the negro, bat they will never consent to live under his role. It was this feeling that, born in the white man, has grown with his growth and strengthened with his strength, that led to the return of the present system of County Government io North Carolina, and we scorn to attempt avy disguise or concealment of the fact. If, then, we shall retain the preseut system, we shall know full well what we are doing. The fruits of that system are before us in the sbape of economical gov- ernment, the happy homes of prosperous people, enjoying the kivdest possible relations between the two races. When things are doing 80 well, why change? ate to-day shows an increase of $295,000 over the amount appropriated by the House of Representatives, making the whole amount now appropriated $24,539,- 450, $235,000 less than the estimates and $417,000 less than the appropriation of 1884. The changes made by the Sevate in- crease the amuunt for the pay of the army over that allowed by the House $315,000, and for medical aud hospital supplies $35,000, striking out the items for quar- ters of non-commissioned staff $25,000, for quarters for hospital stewards $15,000 and for field steel guus and metal cart- ridges $15,000. The sundry civil appropriatiou bill was reported to the House to-day from the appropriation committee. It appropria- ates $20,988,980. The estimates were $30,346,794. The amount in last year’s appropriation bill was $34,713,404. Amoug the items are the following: Custom house at Charleston, 8. C., 835,- 000 ; coart house and postoffice at Dan- ville, Va., $1,300 ; completion of court house at Jackson, Mirs., $150,000; marine hospital, Key West, Fla., $100,000.

Money | so obtained is pretty certaiu to abide with its possessor ; but money that is inherited, or that in any way comes in withont a just and fair equivalent, is almost certain to go as it came. The young man who begins by sav- ing afew shillings a month and thriftily increases his store—every coin being a representative of solid work honestly done—stands a better chance to spend the rest of his life in affluence than he who, in his baste to become rich, obtains money by das!i- ing speculations, or the devious meaus which ubonnd inthe foggy regions between fair dealing and fraud. ee Newly Planted Orchards. | Au old orchardist says: As one of| ithe sufferers through ignorance in my earlier horticultural life, I often de-| sire to caution the young planter to |avoid the errors that beset my path. ° | when the trees are set; that is only | the beginning of the task.

I ave my times of depression of spirit, but I take no notice of that. You have told us not to look to feelings, but simply to trust infallible Word of a faithful God.

A storm was also in progress about five miles north of the town, and a high wind that changed in a few minutes from south to north and then back again, driv- ing the two storms together. The rain fellas if amighty river was falling from the heavens, and the hill north of the town that slopes west to black river and cast to the creek, sent a torrent of water towards the town. Warning was at once given, but so rapidly did the water rise that few had time to save any- thing, and were forced to flee for their lives. The channel of the creek soon be- came filled with the wreckage of houses, barns and other buildings, which forced it iv other” directions.

Every human being has a work to carry ou within, duties to perform abroad, influences to éxert, which are peculiarly his, and which no con- science but his own can teach, Every man feels instinctively that all the beautiful sentiments in the world weigh less than a single lovely action, and that, while tenderness of feeling and susceptibility to generous emotions are accidents of tempera- ment, goodness is an achievement of the will and a quality of life. ~-—>-—-_____—__ For the edification of the colored man and brother, tle record of Jolin A.

A man is poor, just in proportion as he wants what he has not got, and can- not get, This world was not made for anyone in particular, and I feel sorry for those who think so. They will discover their mistake some mistake some cloudy day. My friend, when your relations all think you a fool, your success is almost assured.
