J A gkbat many railroads ar?'' being 1 built jnst now in this State?on paper, j The truth is we have more railroads than we have anything to haul. Good advice is something that anybody can give, but it is something I rerv few ever take, as between the ' two the majority of men prefer to ] take a sheep. i Tee probabilities seem fair that : Congress will pass at the present se? j si^i: :hc Mexican pension bill. The bili has been pending before Congress for many years. Austria still continues preparations for war. The peace that Disraeli patched up at Berlin doesn't promise to last very long. Bulgaria is the bone of contention. The Xew York Legislature in joint session on i nursaay e:ccceu mc|jiv?cutative Frank Iliscock, Republican, Senator, to succeed Miller. The vote was 91 to 62 011 the joint ballot. Our exchanges just now are fu'i of good advice to farmers as to the ways and means of succeeding at the business. It is pleasing to note how many good agriculturists are now engaged in journalism. The political montebanks in and out of Congress who propose to check the accumulating surplus in the national treasury by repealing the internal revenue tax on whiskey and tobacco ought to be disfranchised. The farmers of the country will ploase take notice that the world's visible supply of cotton is 3,229,29i bales. It may be safeiy assumed that it is not less than this. Price is regulated it must be remembered by the law of supply and demand. The North Carolina General Assembly has given their Senator, the Hon. Z. B. Yance, a black eve on his civil service ideas by the passage of a joint resolution commending the President and his associates in their efforts to promote the public service bv the enforcement of the civil service law. The many friends of Sunset Cox throughout the United States will be glad to know that he is recovering. His physician has reported him out of danger. Cox is a man of great sagacity and unimpeachable honesty, and as such he combines the two things that arc just now most needful in the National Legislature. It should not be forgotten in this year of grace, poverty and good resolutions that tiie habit of extravagance, engendered by the credit system, has as mach to do with our present bankruptcy as the "all cotton plan" of fttrrifMilfrire. "Nfnr is fhp first time ill the history of the world that the "abuse" of credit has brought a whole people to the verge of ruin. The world has a standard universal by which it measures the varied capacities of mankind. The traditional good boy, for instance, is thought, to be a bern clergyman; the giib-tongued prevaricator, with large acquisitiveness, is marked for mercantile pur suits, etc., while the smart boy, given to logical prevarication, and with a born indifference to minor moral restraints, is set apart as sure to grace the bar. ? ? . m If the Democratic party wishes to continue in power, if it wishes to hold the allegiance of the "Solid South," it must take hold iu earnest of the living issue of the day. It must free the trade of the nation. It must wipe the "protective tariff'-' ont of existence. There is much dissatisfaction all around in this latitude. The people know that something is wrong. The iiJr?] of vesterdav mav be smashed with remorseless promptitude. There is now being formed in Xew York a combination of Republicans who are to place Chauncey il. Depew in the field as a Presidential candidate in 1SSS. Blaine is trying to effect this deal by throwing his influence in favor of Warner Miller i:i his Senatorial contest. The scheme includes the # nomination of ex-Congressman Burleigh for Governor and Speaker Rusted for YV. M. Evurts's successor in the United Slates Senate. A -bit t vmhiKitinor nf I gress from acting as railroad at corne\ s is now before that body. Ii oujht to become a law. Congress is nut the place for t he attorneys of vast corporations that are constantly seeking to influence legislation. it is highly probable that many of them are selected by the railroad- quite as much ; for their votes as for their le<rai learning. It is merely an imi?hed contract of cour-e, but it counts all the same. Senators Hoau, of Massachusetts, and Conaer, of Michigan, came to :h<; relief of the South Carolina Senators in their effort to pass the bill appropriating immediately and independent of the general river and harbor bill of $500,000, for the Charleston haabor. They both made touching speeches on the 1> II, and it was passeil without riiitLult). We can only h:>pe that <>tir Uryresfniativt;* w.ll y^pie-iate tivi:- vff-ru a- .heir ctni-.iiiifn;? U", si.?A iviui ; > thy o??npliine:u it an ??pever h-eli". It is now but a short while >incu Airil r^fortn hor.Jltrw- !L 1*1*5*1 factor in American pontics. When it was first talked of there were many thoughtful men.who asked themselves the question?"Is there virtue enough In our republicanism to sustain it?'J There is new happily no longer any question about it. The people of the United States have decided it. Let the politician take notice. Whoever jponders thoughtfully the answer that, North Carolina has given to the Hon. ! Zebnion I?. Vance \ril! understand ! that to "bite the file" in future means ! broken teeth. Tt seems to us that it is about time i we were bearing no more about I "political disabilities" in connection ; witb acts of Congress. The South is now back in the Union to slay, ai- ! though it seems very diffieult for the pcot leof the North to understand it. it pays a good proportion of the pension money into the national treasury too, and it iooks pretty hard that theMexican veteran living in tlie South should be deprived of a pension under the recent Act simply because some l Yankee shot him at Gettysburg. A noble, gentle, affectionate and withal very pretty Chicago girl is now , making ready to marry August Spies, the condemned Anarchist. There is I mucu reason to believe that several of the same general description had fallen in love with Cluverius during his trial and incarceration. Really this is putting a new and unexpected premium i on crime. There are a great many candidates running for the gallows | now, but if the position is to carry j with it such astounding advantages in j j this line there will lively be for the i time to come a great many more. to i a It seems that there is a movement on foot among the Prohibitionists of ! the United States to cut loose from J their former friends the "Republicans. Neal Dow says in a recent letter that the Prohibitionists have been fooled by the Republican bosses, who were j running their party in the interest of the grog-shops while M..king all the while professions of prohibition. lie proposes that his party now strike out I ^ if ii.r. ?;JI I lor nst'ii, ;iuu tins' win uu uuuui/ the wisest thing that it can do. It will grow taster when it has divorced itself from all entangling alliances. We are quite disposed to agree with Capt. Dawson that posterity should be given a chance to pay some of ihe national debt. In fact the same principle that makes it binding on us makes it at the same time the obligation of the generations that are to succeed us. It represents in fact the first cost of the colossal fabric of our autonomy and institutions, and a fair proportion of it should go along with this rich legacy to those who come after u?. It may be seen that it must of necessity be so treated when we remember that many of this generation had no hand in contracting it. A very stringent anti-polvgamy bill has passed the flonse of Representatives. It is thought by many that it presses very hard on that clause of the Constitution which guards against inlerference by Congress with "an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof," but we do not share in such opinion. "Without any mental reservations whatever, we [ j are in favor of freedom of thought, ; freedom of speech, freedom of religious worship and a free country generally. But we fail utterly to see ar\v religion in polygamy. Judged by any rational standard, it mast oe pronounced flagrantly immoral, and hence a very proper subject of legislation. nq>? ijai Fkee trade means that the natural law of supply and demand in the commercial world shall not be hampered. As a doctrine of political economy it has received the adhercucc of all the great writers upon tin; subject, from Adam Smith to John Stuart Mill. No author 01''acknowledged ability has ever yet undertaken the defence of the sophistries of protection. This task has been lef- to the shallow wit of mediocre politicians and to the I editors of provincial journals, who have "local interests" to protect or who having no such insperation, simply follow in the path marked out bv a dominant mediocrity. It is needless to reason with men of this class. You | might as well try to reach the moon trilli m vflrd.st.iet. The Rev. Henry Ward Beecher de- J livered a masterful lecture a few nights j ago in Baltimore on socialism. lie ! insists on many qualifications to the doctrine that "all men are bon: free and equal/' remarking specially on the corollaries that follow from ini equality in the nutter of wisdom. lie | ! seems to think that brains should count i | j for quite as much as muscle. In fact j ! lie maintains that *v her ever brains are | { high meat is low. He may succeed in I j showing a few of the Socialists the j error of their ways, but we have 110 i idea that he will accomplish very! | much. The men who believe or pre- j tent to believe that "all property is j robbery" are rather beyond the range ' of argument. A lecture 011 the effi-! cacy of the gallows would perhaps do ! more <rood. The best sentiment of the country i is undoubtedly against :he unseemly i sight of public executions, and we are j entirely in accord with it. Cut when I examined closely we must admit that; if h?.< the appearance of being at least; a little curious. The convicted crimi ual not executed a matter of, vengeance, at any rate sucn is not the theorv of the law. Nor can it be con-' tended that it is for his moral reforma- i tion. To deter o hers from the commission of like offences is perhaps the I only satisfactory reason that can be ! assigned for hanging. But if this be i the purpose, would it nor seem to be i be-t served by having as great an exhiLviion a> po-siblf? Wo do not wi?h /.ny one to mi>u?id2r>taii<i u>, however, and it may therefore be von well to sa\ thif wc an- merely inquiring after i rheK'gicof the ousine>s. .. Kxciteraeat in Texas. Great excitement has b.'cn cased in the vicinity of 1'aris. Texas, by the remarkable recovery of Mr. J. E. < 'orley, who was so helpless he could not turn in bed, or raise his head: everybody said h<* was dying of Consumption." A trial b?*teof Dr. King's New Discovery was sent i..ui. Finding i retifi, ue woujjnt a iari?e ooiue ami a vox of Dr. King's New Lift* Pills: by the time he had taken two boxes of pills* and two 1 bottles of the Discovery, lie was well and I had trained in tlesh thirty-six pounds, j Trial Bottles of this Great Discovery for Consumption tree at Mc3Iaster, Brfee & Ketchin. * The point iuis been raised in some quarter lately that our judges are entirely too free in allowing bail to mur- ! derc-rs. We think it well taken. Human life not to be measured in j dollars and cents. The constitution says that excessive bail shall not be \ 11 r/\ Pi. ! T f i I VAjlUT ?-V?. -XIX 1 i^lH, zyj \>C. XI j ?av? ;;i:o that bail shall be granted in ! capital eases, except where the proof i is clear or the presumption great. All j right again. But the implication is that when the proof is clear or the j presumption great that bail shall not j be granted at all. It i? not enough to ! answer that parties bailed generally { turn up for trial. The trouble is that i this action on the part of the judge in setting at iarge the criminal gives hiui an immense advantage on the trial that he is not entitled to. It creates the impression, often most unfounded, that the crime is not so atrocious atter all. We think it about time that a stricter practice in this matter were inaugurated. A National Incutm*. Our present system of protects c j tariff taxation is beyond all question j the greatest of living iniquities. It | robs the many and enriches the few. j In the midst of wide-spread, poverty ! it doubles, trebles the cost of inanv of the necessaries of life. It builds up and sustains those vast inequalities in the distribution of wealth which now threaten the existence of our institutions. A monster of injustice, it is the source of an ever multiplying series of evils. The offspring of a political heresy, nourished by a great national calamity, it now has the brazen effrontery to claim the right of perpetuity! And the American Congress says let it alone! The men who uphold it say that they do so from patriotic motives! Well might Ben Johnson say that "Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel." The saying finds a painful illustration here. A few bold and earnest men are now fighting this curse of a nation. Its evils they have shown over and over again by facts and figures and argument, and they tire not. The picture will be kept constantly before the gaze of the people until they realize what it is that robs them. Cluverius and His Book. Ciuverius uevoied the last few days of his life to writing a pamphlet of one hundred pa<res entitled, "My Life, Trial and Conviction." In his preface "In my helpless grief I would far sooner remain silent. Naturally enough 1 crave the poor privilege ot telling iuv own story in myfown way." lie explains further lhat he writes tiie book to endeavor to reimbuse his i aunt lor expenses incurred by his! trial. Of Liilian Madison, the mur- | dered girl, he says: "Ou?* relations were simply friendly j and nothing more. There was never j anything that approached criminal in- j limacy between u.?. Indeed, I knew | very little about her until this tiial j began." Speaking of his failure to account i fully tor his tiinf when in Richmond | on the davof the murder, he stvs: ' " -i i r T I "lLilS IS lUC oesi JL cmi iiytv uv. jl have no new light on the matter to give to the public. Judging from the newspaper paragraphs, there is considerable anxiety that I slrall "confess. " The simple fact, is I liave nothing to confess, i did not see F. L. Madison daring the day ami night of the 13th of March. That is all the confession I have io make. Of course, if a man expected to be arrested tor murder a month afterward, he would make a memorandum of his movements and frequently consult his watch and to call attention of friends and acquaintances to the hours at which they met him." With regard to the charge tiiat he was indifferent when he heard of Lil-. lian Madison's death, he says: "1 have felt as all others who have hearts have feit, that he death was pitiably, inexpressibly sorrowful. But those who thought me gttiitv naturally j looked for some tragic and dramatic regret at her death. - Conscious 01 entire freedom from complicity in her death, and having no specially intimate relations with her, such ati exhibition would have been forced and unnatural." Patrick Henry and Free Trade. Speuking of free trade in South Carolina, the Charleston Dispatch says: "As Patrick Henry would say, 'it lies supremely upon its back, hugging the delusive phantom of hope.'" Now free trade in South Carolina is quite able to speak for itself. It numbers among its champions seven-eights of all the men of real ability in the commonwealth. But unfortunately Patrick Henry cannot; the orator ot the Revolution is dead, and an overpowering sense of fair play compels us to protest against the liberty which our contemporary lias taken with his name and fame. If there Is anything which distinlinguishes the oratory of Patrick Henry more than any other quality, it is the bi'i;??'}*, nay the splendor ot his diction. And it is indeed so k,supiemeiv' improbable that Patrick ilc;-:-} -houlct ever have used theph<*a>e which our rcspected contemporary attributes to him, that we cannot set "supinely" down and permit the authority of hi> name to be so cruelly misused. When we compare what he did say, with what it is claimed he "would" I have said; well! we feei that there is very little necessity for pushing any farther that semi-sacred inquiry: "Ohdeath where is thy sting ? Oh! grave where is thy victory ?" We are led fairly to doubt whether the illustrious co-adjutor of Adams Mid Jefferson fully weighed the meaning of hits words when he snouted in I lie ear- of a hissing loyalty, that, -plenditi alternative of i;<>pired patriotism, ''(iiv;- me lii-erts or give me death," If our C"n!vur.,'i>r:try will study the science of political economy as carefully as it has evidently studied the orations ot Patrick II?-nry, it will learn th:?r that illustrious natriof would not have said that free trade in South Carolina "lies supremely upon its back hugging the delusive phantom of hope."

The maxim that one should say nothing but good of the dead is a generons one, but surely the virtue of consistency should never be entirely overlooked by parties who habitually indulge the habit of posthumous praise. When one has nothing sood which one can consistently say of the dead, silence is the condition which morality imposes, unless one has something to ? - 1- " -1- " ^ ?/.* /v/\ A/l < Ua fol I! IiW >a\ w men iiui guuu, iuu iN/iiiiig vi which the truth of history demands. Certain Democratic papers which during Gen. Logan's life-time rarely had a good word for him, suddenly found out as soon as he was dead that he was a good and great man, a judgment which we look upon as the Jesuit of mere gush, and one which posterity will surely ^reverse. That Gen. Logan had many cf the qualities of a successful man cannot be de nied, but the great defects of his character are prominently exhibited when he is compared with a man like Lincoln. Logan began political life an uncompromising Democrat- He *vas a supporter of the fugitive slave law, and gloried in it. When, however, the tide of affairs shifted, Lo^an was found in the ranks of the Abolitionists an ablebodied malignor of his former asso? -3 _5r ciates. rne cnange was suuuen aim complete and cannot be reasonably attributed to any higher motive than self-interest. Lincoln on the otner hand was of ice opposite type; he held to his opinions regardless of consequences and avowed them openly when such avowal brought upon him social and political ostracism. He was true to his friend? aad just to his opponents. There is a moral symmetry about his character that is worthy of commemoration. lie rose by his unaided efforts from the humblest to the highest position in the Republic, and will surely take bis place in history among America's most illustrsous men. And this surely is more than can justly be said for the author of "The Great Conspiracy." And yet there are great journals^it would seem, who would accord a praise to Logan that they would deny to Lincoln. Gilder's Pills For the Liver. All Druggists have them.
