A ~ PiIsw~ idJaphI'~ O1 It is a comnon thing these days t tell the farmer:a of the State they pa, the bulk of the taxes and ought t run the government. Were th premise absolutely true the conch slon would not neces..arily follow for as every prosperous governmen must have a variety of employmentI so every law-making body, to secur wise and just laws, should have in i a variety of knowledge and experi ence. The best government is thin which p)rotects and stimulates eac andl every industrial enterprise wit the least injury to all, and this ca be best attained by electing not farn ers, or lawyers, or merchants, or an, class specially, but true men, whi combine knowledge, experience, in tegrity and patriotism in the highes degree. In the hands of such, wheti er they be called farmers or by at other name, the government can i safely trusted without detriment I any class or profession. Industry i every calling is commendable, :in though the farmer proper constitute the bread producing class, the essen tial basis of every other industry this by no means proves the othe pursuits of life are non-essential t) can be dispensed with. Let us al then labor to prevent any clash be tween classes or industries and striv to unite all our people in a conscien tious effort for true men, without re gard to calling. Suppose "A" a doctor. or "13 lawyer, or "C" a merchant, or "D" mechanic, or "I;" a banker, shoul< say, each for himself, 1 pay mor taxes than any one of you and shouli have influence in the government i that proportion, would it be right No. Suppose the railroad corport tion should set up their claim on like ground, would it be right ? N< Suppose all these callings should coin bine with other non-farming indus tries and claim they paid the bulk o the taxes and should run the Gov ernment, would it be right ? N( Neither should or wou. d the claiin c such right be tolerated nur would it selfish exercise, it' permitted, profi such classes. It would injure then and all others in the State. The fac is, we are one people, one in govern ment, one in interest and one in pui suit, the great purpose of all goo citizens being an earnest desire t promote general morality, religior education and wealth. As there ar diversified industries in every st ciety, so every member of such se ciety, whatever be his leading calling has diversified interests. The pr< fessions, as a rule, are personally ei gaged in agriculture, and farmerf more or less, give advice or admini ter medicines and all are moving i the same direction-moral and m: terAal progress. As so much has been said abou taxes, their burden and on whom i rests, a friend, who neither holds no seeks any office, made out and hani edi us a general estimate of thec taxe paid in Oconce and by what classes The estimate is an average, the p)art taking four townships and esti mai tihe taxes p)aid by non-residlents froi thle taxes 8o p)aidI in Center, Seneci Chatuga and WhIitewater.

One of the greatest curses of this intellectual age is the great lack of proper education of our girls in the practical affairs of every day life, says the Health and Home. 'T'hey all want to be "schoolmarms," gov. ernesses or the wives of rich nen. 11ousehold work, which should form the basic principle of our economic life is shunned by them as some. thing degrading. We have schools in which our girls are taught cooking, embroidery, music painting. school teaching the languages, but positive ly not one in which is taught the art of house keeping. Why? Simply because of the prejudice against it. Yet all girls desire to get married, which is very easy to do, but it is very,. very difficult to live happily in marriage; and where the wife has no knowledge of the art of housekeep ing, domestic economy, or is a poor coojc, be her husband as rich as Crosus, her lot will be miserable. Such a woman is totally incompetent to be a wife; her proper place is in some garret "singing the song of the shirt." While a man admires wo manly beauty, yet in married life he admires much more a good square meal, cooked by the hands of his wife or under her immediate direc tions. What we mean by a good square meal is not simply roast beet and potatoes, with a piece of indi. gestible pie and a cup of ordinary coffee, but a table covered with snow white linen, the china and glassware shining like so ma;y miniature mir rors, with bouquets of fresh blooming flowers in season, and napkins soft and fresh from the laundry, not stiff as pasteboard, so that they will slide from your knees. These prepara tions cost but a trifle and are the in variable precursor of a good appetite. No dish should he served undeco. rated, the fish or meat should be sur rounded with small pieces of either parsley or beets, carrots or turnips cut by molds into various knick ktiack, devices, not so much for eat ing as for ornamentation, and also as du appetizer. For puddings, mel. ons, etc., pulverized sugar should al ways be at hand, and for iced tea a slice or two of lemon with granulated sugar. These and a thousand and one other little things we would men. tion concerning the table, cost no more than the slovenly served, appe. tite destroying foods of the present time. Cleanliness of the table should be co-important with cleanliness of the body. Such a table would never tail to make home the abiding place of true love and solid comfort. But as we have no schools for teaching the above arts what are we to do? Why not establish one, establish a dozen, yes, and in every city and every village. Have it a school of practical house keeping. Instruct the pupils in every department, from the scrubbing of the front door steps to the mysteries of the kitchen. Run actually as a boarding house. Issue diplomas of gradunation to your se vant.pupils after a two, three or four years course. Have each pupil be. gin by learning the most menial la bor, and by degrees adlvancing until she is thoroughly qualifled in every dlepartmnent of the scullery', chamber, laundry and kitchen. H ave her to do practical work, not wvork in tl,e ory. TIake in boarders, charge good prices, give first class service, and as Colonel Sellers would say, "there's millions in it." Will any of our readers take tihe hint? A diploma from such an institution would insure marriage, and what is still better, happiness in marriage.--Orne/mryq Times andi Democrat.

There is a good deal of inperti. nent meddling in President Cleve land's private all'airs. Some news. papers and people, for instance, seem to think that it was the Irnitr1 States of America that married Miss Frances Folsom. The truth is Gro ver Cleviand, Esrth inn not think of Mir.

If' the sout,hern people think that, a northern mIan will aeceit, all their sentiments as his because they help to elect his president. the are a re markahle collection of fools. Another matter in which Lhe news papers have been very oflicious is Mr. Cleveland's prtivate gi f1s to charity. i he has the right to do as lie likes with his mnoncy and nobody has anything to do with what he giv'es or does not. give. lie was matie president to do certain stated public duties anl outside his per foriance of those tiu Les the public has nothiing to do with him. But si.ace the suhject has been discssed, it is well to note that while MAr. Cleveland sent no eloquent letters or telegrams 'of sympathy and gave nothing that we know of to swell the half million or maaore selt, to Charles. ton city, he modestly sent his $20, to help the Confederat.e home and $100 to the people of the poor little Texas hnamlet that tdhe sea dest,royed.

'1'he man of the North is diligeni lie is wise for his own usufruci The man of the south is not alway instructed the same way, or similar ly enterprising. Ignorance brough on the war, and ignorance has beci the cause of many di.-asters sinec We of the South are to blame for th loss of much of our patrimony. L.ooi for example, at our forests. Almcs before our people knew it, the car itmiists and lumbermen of the Eas and West were buying, for a mer song, hundreds of thousands of acre of our most valuable yoodland. Th Bialtimore Manufacturer's Record re ports a curious happening in Ves tern North Carolina in 1882. I says that during the winter "quite i number of sharp, intelligent mei from the North and West visitc Asheville, and started out from ti er for a jaunt through the country to wards Murphy. It was not the tim usually chosen for pleasure trip among the mountains. Soon it wa, known that these men were buyinl black walnut trees, paying the czash and taking deeds for their purchases which they had recorded by countl clerks. as though they bought rca estate. They paid from one to threi dollars a tree, and expended man' thousand dollars. Great was the jol all thronah t.he mountain counties a this unexpected inflow of money An Asheville editor thought lie wouic ascertain what induced these men t< spend their money thus foolishly Ile sent to Chicago and procure. A copy of the Northwestern Lumber man. When he read the prices a which black walnut was quoted, hi rejoicings were changed to disgust a the prevailing ignorance of the valu< of' that wood. In his next issue i poured a flood of light uponi the sub ject. The price of black walnu trees advanced several hundred pe cent. in consequence, but the met kept on buying until they had ever; tree the land owners would sell, for, hundred miles west of Asheville, am then waited for the completion of thi extension of the Western North Caro lina lRailroad before they began tb convert their propert,y into logs an boards." The South is waking up in thi, matter, we are told. Owners of on forests are holding them for bette prices, and domestic capital is turn ing its attention to the manufacturi of hard woods into furniture. It will not be the fault of on Northern brethren if they do not ge possession of everything valuabl in this section. Indeed the war wa chiefly brought on for that purpose The freedom of the blacks was onl, a fanatical, sentimental incideni Slavery st.ood in the way of Northeri enterprise in 1860, and was brokc1 down.
