Dr. Axum, Third l'arty candidate for Governor of North Carolina was iirrestctd at Golsboro on Saturday, 29th, charged with using profane language in the post ollicc in the nresellco of Indies Hp A vim, d<>. nled the charge postively; the post master swore to it. The Dr. was fined by the mayor. A warrant for perjury has been issued against him. A CARI) OF CORRECTION. I was met on the street last Monday by Mr. W. .). Waller, who asked me to state that the report of the (J a 1 ivants Ferry county campaign meeting was "false." The part he . wishes to correct is that reading: "Mr. Waller, who is stumping the county for the Coroner's oilicc, stood up in his buggy and asked the boys to Vomo off an 1 let him alone.'" He denies standing in his buggy; and says he was on the ground not far from Col. Quattlebaum, After the fuss he spoke* The words he gave on are: "Well, lot's all go home, we've heard enough of it." IIo then got into his buircv and drove off. Therefore the report was ''false," Tweedledum is not Tweedledeo and i so state now. I wish I could have got in this gentleman's correction before the 30th; but he told of my ' false roport'' too la?e, too late. .1. O. Norton. MR. McCASKIM.'S UKIM/Y. I was pretty severely handled in y the last issue of the IIkkald. Now let us examine the authority. Mr. Burroughs admits that he did not road my letter, and he is so young and innocent that he knows no better than to believe all he hears. This accounts for his having attempted to grossly insult me. lie insinuates that 1 am duo him something on coflin trimming, etc. Whatever account may be against me was not contracted by me or any member of the family, but we will pay it. Ami 1 see the ''Pet," the "stall-fed," the "Patented Dude," tiles his little horns in the mud and pitches into me as relentless!) as though he hud been out on the grass till his body had attained the proportionate size of his /niad, which is < mtrf/tou-1. Now doesn't he, with that skilled pen and graduated imagination of his, most magnificently portray me as tho center figure and finally the failure of a comic scene! And at last he presumes J wili resume my position at the bottom of my ladder. Speaking of low position, I have for my "soft, white friend" this con solatiou, that he will never be troubled to resume a low position for he will never leave a low one. lie is pretty public in bis state IIOH mont as to "what becomes me and [ what does not. Well, good advice is' mighty cheap and rarely over appreciated, especially when it arises with tho natural gas from ?n overcharge of would bo political prejudices. lie replies as though I had accused Senator Smith, in my letter, of being false to his constituents. Mr. Smith prophesied in my hearing, that circumstances would place him in Congress. This prophesy, 1 claimed was false and am vet to be con vine od to tho contrary. W. S.

' This Canadian retaliation business," said a gentleman whose relations with the administration are such as to leave no doubt <*f his! knowing what he is talking about, "has only just begun. Cnlcss the Canadian government shall at an early day remove the cause of com- j plaint there will be another Presi- | dential proclamation issued that will boar much harder upon the commer c'al interests of Canada than the last one. The matter was gone over i carefully by President Harrison and his Cabinet beforo Congress adjourned and a program mapped out which was annroved bv everv mem 1 t J ' bcr of tho cabinet, as well as by a number of Senators and Representatives, of both political parties, who were taken into tho confidence <>f the administration. .Just what this pro gram was I do not care to say, farther than that it will be very unpleasant to Canadians, and that if carried out it will raise an impassi ble commercial barrier between Can ada and the United States, and will practically ruin the great Canadian Pacific Railway by destroying its greatest source of profit?tbe carry- : ing of the goods in bond through the United States; and that it will certainly be carried out to the letter, I know, unless Canada duos what she has been politely asked to do, very soon. Secretary Foster does not wish to go against the wishes of the World's Fair authorities, as he was charged with doing when the Columbus por trait for use on the souvenir half dollars was selected without consulting them, in preparing the medals to be awarded exhibitors at the ex-1 hi bit ion, so he hus written to ascertain their wishes, and as soon as he I hears from them it is expected that | a number of the most prominent j American artists will bo invited to submit competitive designs therefor, i It is possible that Columbus portrait for the souvenir half dollars may yet be changed. Officials of the Marine Hospital Service, which has control of the Congressional appropriation known as the "epidemic fund," feel that there is very little danger of the introduction of cholera into any of our large ports, owing to the precautions which have been taken to pre vent it, but they fear that some tramp steam ship may bring it into ports, but they are doing all they can to guard against such a misfortune. They do not believe there is the slightest reason for anything like a panic in this country; but that is no reason why tho health authorities, National, State, and Municipal, should not bo vigilant. Indeed, it is solely because it is believed that they are and will continue to be vigilant that there is no cause ^for the people to get frightened. Foster has placed tho revenue cutter Hiving at the disposal of the Marine Hospital service, and she will be fitted up and used as a hospital at tho (Jape Charles quarantine station, while another revenue cutter will bo used by KY HEHALD, tin' quarantine oflicials at that point to aid them in inspecting incoming Doo m stcanic s. One hears little else but the corning (J. A. Kncampment talked about in Washington now. \'eurly every family i?. the < ity expect to entertain visiting friends during that week, and the most conservative estimato that there will certainly be a half million visitors, including the veterans. The arrangements are all in excellent shape, all of the work he ing some days ahead ?>f the estimated time.

The day before the encampment proper opens will be a big day in the military line, as Secretary Ml kins has ordered all of the I'nited States troops here and within easy hearing distance to participate in the grand parade which is to precede the forum 1 dedication of "birand Army Place" (t he old White Lot,) where all the reunions are to be held. Sec I retarv Tracv will do 'lm <ium? with ! the marines and siilors and entire national guard <d' the District of (,'olunibia will also participate.

White supremacy i- no more a political cat oh phrase in the Soutii. It is ati ever preset!', living issue, which must he recognized because it is the coiner smne of the Southern social structure. Ignore it and mon! n ' grel government and social chaos would be the result. This is not mere speculation, for we hud some very hitter and not soon to l>e forgotten experience in this (luring the period of so-called reconstruction, front the effects of which the South lias not ve? entire! recovered There isn't a single leader in tho Third party in the S'>ntli who has heretofore olliliated with the Democratic party who would not say, if he spoke candidly, that whita supremacy i* a vital question.

TheJ /'roj/raxxhe FurwrVy au >iher third party organ, s:\id so until a few weeks ago, and both of them declared that this made it essential that the Democratic party in North Carolina must be sustained, hern use Democratic as. jccndency meant white supremacy. Now \ve liiid those two organs advocating a party which ignores white i supremacy and destroys t ne barriers j between white and black by taking negroes into their conventions as delegates and by nominating negroes for ollice.

Stepping back incautiously, the nearest point of the tempting prey came within reach of too animal's claws, and in a mo moot tho largest apearent portion of the lady was being bitten through and through, and torn in pieces withjhorrihle violence. A board was instantly 'slipped between the sufferer's back and the cage, and the remainder of her person separated from the fragments which could not be extricated from the grasp of tha wild boast, but to the surprise I of the terrified spectators, ii resulted in a discovery that tlio lady herself had not lost a single drop of blood nor sustained the loa?t bodily injury in the mastication! Wives for the WestCliarle.ston Mercurj 1817. To supply the bachelors of the West, with wives; to furnish the pining maidens of the Kist with husbands; to better equalize the* present di8propotion of the sexes in these two sections of our eounfn, has been one of the diflicu 1 ties of the age. The remedy was simply?it was only for the girls to go West, and get married; but to go expressly to get married offended their ideas of deliracy. Miss. Beecher, hersolf a Yan kee girl, has ingeniously got ov the whole difficulty* She is engag* ing the girls to go West as schoolteachers. - j THURSDAY g Take the Sunny Side of life. Never relinquish 'he yr^at object of your ambition, whatever it may bo. I l.et it be, more or lose distinctly, over present to your mitnl. I, ?t it exert a controlling influence over all your; actions. In tbe first place, have some definite aim to your life sonic distinct and leading object of your! ambition: and be ambitious f ? accomplish it. An aimless objectless; life is a dull and dreary w^ato. It lacks stimulus, and piquancy, and /.est., and enjoyment. In choosing an object of ambition, choose a worthy ; one, in behalf of which all tho; strei gtli, all the higher and nobler ; faculties of your nature may be en- ; listed. Have an aim that yon may ! umblushingly and proudly exhibit to ; , the 1 ght of day and for which you may safely challenge the respect of 1 all. Then pursue it earnestly and steadfastly. No matter what discouragements assail you or what obstacles present themselves in your way, keep right oil in the pursuit of j your object. If your progress be slow, still persevere and make it sure. Do sorrows come to y on? They come .o till. The continued adherence to the great plan of usefulness which I you have laid out <\ill do us much its ' anything can to brighten your path, oven when grief and gloom < vor shadow it.
