CHRISTMAS.
In ear editorial experieooe this ia
the second time that we have had the
privilege, as well pleasure, of greeting
you, dear reader*, with a "merry Christ.
mas. -
We deem it hardly neoeaaary to tell
you that thia ia tlelaat visit we will make
3on in the old aad well n : gh apeut jeer
of 1881, so you ueed not expect ua next
week. Every one of yoa must have a
heart, stirred ut one time or another by
gem rout* impulses, and now you will
fsrlxsar and lei us rest a week and rpend
aome timo with oar friends, enjoying
their Oompauioaskip and hospitality.
We b*ve eudeavored IO serve yon
faithfully, and if at timee yon did not
find the GLEAXBK AX readable aa you ex*
peeted, we point you to the extreme dif
ficulty of preparnz aomutbing novel e*«
ery week. If you have been diapleaaed
once or twiee, we have been many timea.
We bare tried to be faithful in the pub
lication of the news, and at all timea
have upoken oar aentimeata on public
matters; in these we do net try to con
form eur sentiments with theee of all
our readers. Men will differ in their
opinions, honestly, and became an epin*
ion emenatea from the editorial sanctum,
it is not expected that it will meet with
universal favor. If wt> have brought
any man to reflect, then we tbink we
have accomplished some lasting good.
For every reader of the GLEANER we
feel a friendship, and wa deaire the
prosperity and adyanoemant of all for
the building ap of our common country,
More eapvcially, have we devoted cur
se! ves to the interests of Alamance eeun- {
ty, whieh was oar first duty and there
fore took precedence.
v It Is natural, to feel some regrets for
dutiea unperformed aad thoae i'l-done,
to all who liava sach regrets wa wonld
venture a word of eneouragemenl and
beg them not to give np er yield to des
pair, bnt resolve to start ia with the
new year with more earnestaevs and fix
edtaem of purpose, ▲ great dieath nas
visited a smiling country and a prosper
out people, bat there is enough for all,
end the generous Providenoe who doeth
all Vhings in wisdom will nat let this
visitation pass without teaching erring
humanity some nsefnl lesson.
During the holiday festivities let all,
old aad young, lake freely o! pleasure
and enjoyment, but of one thing be cer
tain, that yoor pleasures and joyo are
harmless and innocent.
The young, the little folks, most not
be forgotten, their little hearts must be
made glad too. Many of them have
thought it ages siuce last Christmas, and j
now that th»?timo is at hand again, don't
disappoint them.
Early next year we will preeent our*
selvs at your fire-aides and pass areund
the boma oircles again. We want to do
better than erer before end to thia end,
we ask the co-operation of all our reads
era to aid ue*in enlarging our enbecrip
tion list and giving us the item* of news
from all parts. A very little help from
each one will enable us to do very mnoh
for you.
There U much *nore we migbt have
•aid under this bead, but we forbear.
Again wishing all a merry Christmas
and a happy aw year, we let the curtain
fall on 1881.
TheßoxboroiZeraW, If we read aright,
is in favor of abolishing the Internal
Revenue System and leans to lynch law.
If'the latter prevails wa aeaure that
journal ere long It will be al no use
to abolish the Revenue Sy»tem, for there
will be no government to sustain suoh a
system. The lynohing businese is getting
to be to o common. We know that the
cry is heard on all sides, that the law is
too tardy to allow base perpetrators s of
foul deeds to await its yerdiot. It is
batter to have tardy justice, order and
protection for the people and State, than
lynching, ansrchy and disintegration.
■■ ■ ■
The Wilmington Star refers to the
tariff as "The great giant moooply of
Christendom —tho A merinan High
l'roteotive—War —Prohibitory Tariff."
And it is about right. We ara glad to
sea that prominent Democratic senators
are asking an effurt to have the tariff
revised. It i* wrong to prohibit the im~ j
portation of foreign goods that home
manufacturers msy grow rish. The tar--
iff laws take money out of the pockets of
consumers and give it to manufacturers
without returning any adequate conaider
ution. It is high timo te have this thing
changed.
| Col. John W. Forney, editor and pub
lisher of the Philadelphia Prog rest, died
a week ago. Though a republican, he
was a warn supporter of Gen. Hancook
in the last Presidential campaign, and
withal a bold writer.
Our spaee was so much taken ap with
the "Exhibit" la»t week that we could noa
gat ia any tbingHbout the trial of Ouiteau
aad the President's meeaage. We will
apeak of the latter in another article ia
thia issue, and as for the former it con •
tiuuee, and is likely to continue soaae
timeyet. (Vitaoeees for the prosecution
are being examined now, and with rather
a bad showing for the prisoner.
A bill will be introduced into the
Virginia Legislature, we learn, in a few
day* providing lor the removal of the
political dis-bilitie* of persona who en
gaged % dueling during the campaign
of 1879 and last Fall, in that Stan. It
a-ould be a moat excellent thing to let
theiu cool a while longer, and they would,
perhaps, exhibit more aenre and leaa
furor in subsequent catr|>nigna.
The comments by the preaa upon the
President's first meaaago to Congress, ao
far aa read by ue, have bten very fayor
able. The words of wisdom contained
in it have been greeted with commen
dation generally.
W4 h» re read the paper and in the
language of another consider it "pon
derour.." Te give those, who have not
read extracts from or the whole of it
aome adequate conception of it, would
require a very long article, which we
have neither time nor spaoe to get in.
Our diplomatic relations have been
sat in factory, sad our high position as a
great nation has been preserved.
Already we havo given something of the
Tressury department.
The allusions inadu to the Navy, Pos
tal Matters, Internal Improvements, the
Mormon question. Department of Jus
tice, Education, Merchant Marine and
what should be considered Presidential
in ability, are of special interdbt to the
country, aod we shall take oeoasion to
refer to them in "detail shortly. Many
bills have already been introduced in con
gress upon tbeae impoi tint matters look
ing to their revision and improvement.
The President rscomjnends the aboli
tion of internal reymuie except on tobao
eo and spirituous liquors. But we
shall write on the matters again and for
the present ws say no more.
Waihlnffton Letter.
WASHINGTON. D. C., \
Dec. 16, 1881. \
There has never been a greater .scram
ble lor office than that inaugurated with
the opening of thia Congreaa. It beats
everything. The fyy is full of at ran
gers and they are nearly all after some
thing. Six veers ago when the Demo
crats came into control of the House of
Represeaatireo it waa the firat sight tbey 1
had caught of tbe 'spoils' for many years
aud naturally there were namereus ap
pllcants for the two hundred email offices
To he filled. We all remember the tor.
rlble howl that went ap from the Res
publican prees about the hungry Dem
ocratic -mob.' Bat there has been right
here in Washiugten daring the last two
weeks a larger aud more ravenous mob
of office-grabbeia than was seen in De«
jcember 1876. This great Republican
I party which hashed 100,000 offices under
it a control for twenty veara acramblea I
harder for the few small places under
the lloase 'hen did the wbole Democratic
party whea'a few loaves were all it
bad to dispense. It is a party of flesh
pots and spoils. But for these it would
have been beaten in every election for
the past ten yesrs. Take them away
aow and the party bould never control
another Congress or carry another gen
eral eleotion. Clerk MrPherson has had
a hard time satisfying tbe different State
delegations whose deiasnds exceed bin
resource*. Then in additiou to 'his the
eld crowd who held office ander him be.
fore have ell come back except those
who are dead. A d the overflow from
the House oast eager glanoes towards
the Senate, where the corpaleut form of
Judge Davie alone stands bewteen them
end the seventy ar eighty positions now
held by Democrat* under thst body.
Even ex Members of Congress are can
didates for the privilege oi opening the
doors whioh were once opened lor
thein.
Aside from tbe avalanobe of bills
dumped into tho two hou«es there is
little worth talking about in Congress
as yet. Perhaps every conceivable mat.
ter upon which Congress hat 'authority
to legislate baa been thrown into the
hopper already, and the performance has
but just begun. I totice plenty of Con
gressmen going around with pockete
bulging oat, waiting their turn. Among
the maaa airtady offered there are bills to
repeal taxes and to impose taxes, to erect
public buildings, itnpieve barhors and
dig out the beds of rivers, erect inter,
oceanic canals, provide against epidem
ics, create additional executive Depart
ments, to amend the Constitution in sev
eral particulars, gran; lenaious. aud to
or undo every possible thing that the in
genuity or cupidity of mau could sug
gest. A large number are old acquaints
ances that have made tbeir appearauce
in Congress with regularity for yeara
past, and many oftbem were presented
in the laat Congreaa and tailed for lack
of merit or laek of lime fo reach them.
Tbeadioarniaeut of tbe preeent Coa«
greaa will find these bills oaepeiufed in
the same manner aad lor the aamo rea>
sons, bat their femiiiat faoee will doubt
lees be toaud ou the calendlio of the
succeeding Congress. New member*
always introduce tbe greatest uamber of
measures becauee they generally lm«-
agiue that tbeir future importance ia
determined by the iageuuity displayed
in this direction at tbe start.
- Senator Logan's bill to place the great
Americsn beggar, Grant on the retired
Hot of the Army will probably pass the
Senate, but 1 doubt It it gets through
tht ilou»e. Senator Edmunds* SIOO,OOO
bill providing tor tbe psyment ol the ex
penses attending the illness aod fdneral
of PresOTnt tiacfleld wW pa»» both
I houses. It was believed-that
I tbia amount woulu not be sufficient 10
rover all demands, but doubt leaa the
Senator baa made 1 eotrect estimate,
baaed upon Informal ion. Tbe bill oU
fared by Representative Hewitt of Al»>
bama, in the Home, to amend the ar
reara of peoiiou act, ought to pass.
The effeet of it would be to cut off the
srearagee for the time intervening be
tween tbe dale of discharge and (be time
ot filing tbe elaim in the thouaanda of
etM now peuding. President Arthur
•tatea in bfa meat age tbat it will take
$286,000,000 to aettle tbe 193,000 pend
iug claims, and it is estimated that Mr.
Hewitt's bill would save 9200,000.000 of
this. One ot the novelties cornea from
Mr. Plielpa, of Connecticut, who wants
authority given the President to appoint
a commission of three colored persona to
inquire into the intellectual condition of
the colored people of the Southern
Slates, their needs and what, if anything
can be done by the Federal Government
for their relief.
We ore promised tome new develops
nocnts in the Star Route Iran• a. It is
stated that within a ttfw days there wil!
be made public a remarkable leport on
the alraw bond system that prevailed un
der which the Government lost heavily
As to the Philadelphia cases it is nnders
! atood that certain persons who were be
hiud the ostensible contractors will in
demnify tbe Government Tor losses sus
tained rather than risk criminal prosecu>
lion. Mr. Dorsey is roporied to own a
ranch of great value, but it is believed
that he is under such heavy pecuniary
obligations to Johu Coaler, ex-Indian
contractor, and now of Carlisle, Pa.,
that he ia by no means a ricli man.
General Brady who attribuiea his for
tune to lucky speculation in telephone
stocks, is commonly credited with having
to atand the bruut of the expenses under
the prosecution. Three expetuhe law
yers engage themselves iu tbe defence.
There are two or more newspapers that
ate avowedly couducted witn special ref
erence (0 tbe defence. There are mani
fold other expenses and there are reports
•f promiscuous bribery. Even if the
Government fails to secure a conviction
tbe money filched from tbe pockets of the
people will not have done tbe conspira
tors groat good. Already Mr Bliss, and
Mr. Brewster who is expected to be
made Attorney General, are the eubiects
of fierce attacks by the ring organs.
Resolutions of tbe N. 0. Press.

its agricultural, mineral and forest
wealth, and in the wonderful develop*-
meul ot its manufacturing Industries,
and do regard their existence and proper
use aa tbe agencies which are to make
the South grrat, powerful, prosperous
and self-sus;aiuing, and tbe great

Treasurers' Account.
[Newt-Observer.j
Tbe Commissioners appointed by tbe {
last General Assembly, via: Messrs, V. I
V. Richardson, O. W. Carr, H. F.
Grainger and D. C. Moore, to examine
the accounts and vouchers of the Treas
ury Department of Ihe State met on
Tuesday. They examined the accouuts
of the State Treasnrer for Ihe fisoal year
ending on the 20th of September last.
Alter comparing (he entries of receipts
and disbursements with the vouchers
they found Ihe balance as stated by the
Treasurer, to bo $235,266.26. Of this
balance, $65,778.66 belonged to tbe
putdio fund, applicable to the several
charitable and penal institutions, the in
terest on the public debt and a small
amount to general expenses, 'fheyoruur
ed the coupons of the new four per cent
bonds, amounting to $63,697 00, and
tbe coupons ol the saven per cent, mort-
I gage bonds of tbe Wectern North Caro
liu* Railroad, amo'iuting to $87,240.
This part of tbe duties of ihe cumuiis-iou
ers was very onerous, and iu addition to
(bo general examination made their la
bora very tedious. The/ report tbe re
salt of their Investigation as highly aatis
taotory iu every particular, ev* ry en

kept in a strictly business manner.
They examined also the accounts of the
charitable and penal institutions, aud the
Agricultural Department, (tbe Treasurer
or tbe State being ex-officio treasurer of
those institutions), auu found all entriee
properly made.

Ignorance er Prejudice?
[Charlotte Observer]
A promlbent agriculturist of the COUBS
try, andm who ia indeiltified with the
•Aorta to krisf about an improvement
in tbe Africa It oral and stock interests ol
tbe State, baa handed us a clipping trout
the Cultivator and Cbuntry Qentltman,
which is suggestive, le say tho least, aud
il anything bat creditable to tbe manner
In which our State Agricultural fairs are
managed. Here ia a case in which the
featiemen serving as fudges in a certain
department are convicted of ignorance
that is inexcjftable, and which is well
calculated to work serious injury to one
of the first interests of the State,viz: Tbe
improvement of the stock It demon*
stialea very clearly that it (he Agricul
tural Society would have its awards
worth the paper on wbicti they are writ
ten, it is necessary that men masi be sp-
Cinted wboeao appreciate the difference
i ween a 'scrub,'a-grade' or a'thor
oughbred.' The action of the judges in the
case noted U about on a par with the
spirit which sometimes awards a premi
um ot greater intrinsic value to a collect
ion of lauey lut worthless hot house
plants titan the exhibitor ef a selection of
useful farm products can secure on his
exhibit.
We give below the extract in ques
tion :
'A strange case of ignorance or pre
judice in connetiou with the North Car
olina State Fair at Raleigh, has just come
to my notice, aud 1 ask this statement
in your columns, because the case is
closely connected with some of the best
Jersey herds in the Slate of New York,
and. unless corrected, will tend to lesseu
the usefulneis of a valuable animal, in a
section of the country where he is capa
ble of great good.
Through an advertisement in tbe
Country Gentleman, Mr. William Bums,
proprietor oi Melville Stock Farm, on
Haw River, N. C., last spring purchased
the fours)ear-old Jersey bull Butter Boy,
Nu. 3243, A. J. C C., from Houghton
Farm. Upon exhibiting this bell at the
fair named, last month, accompanied by
his completejpedigree, (he judges ruled
him out entirely as • not a Jertey/'
Now Butter Boy is not only a herd
register Jersey, but comes of stock both
fashionable and productive. Besides
this, his jwn get (in tbe herds of his
former owners, Mr. Wine, Mr. Faile,
and Mr. Valentine) are with few except
ions animals ot great promise. His sire
Balsora was at ihe head ot Mr. Edwiu
Thome's herd, and was also sire ofEuig
ma, who averaged 15 pounds of uusalted
butter per week. The tiara of Butler
Boy waa Mr. King's wwell-known Oak
Leaf, who made a butter record of 16
pounds 10 ounces in a week, aud whose
dam Echo and sister Maple Leaf did al
most as well. Through Oak Leaf, But
ter Boy traces by different lines, four
times to Saturn and three times through
Jupiter to Rhea, the parents of tbe
famous Alphea, and also to tbe fine cow
Edith, imported with Saturn and Rhea,
by Mr. R, M. Hos. Other branches ot
this bull's pedigree as Messrs. Samuel
Faile, J. P. Swain, Kittriitire, Watson,
Hughes, Tain ton, aud the Massachusetts
Society,
There may be better bulls than But*
ter Boy in North Carolina, but when
'Judges' pass him by as 'not a Jersey,'
they make a grand mistake, and really
injure the dairy stock interests ot their
own State. HKHRT E. ALVOBB.

TALKING TO VISITORS AMD OWING IIIS
AUTOGBAPH.
WASHINGTON, December 11.—The re«»
fusal ot the authorities to admit repre
seuatives of tbe press and visitors to the
jail last Sabbath had a tendency to de- I
crease lor admittance to that
institution"to-day. While many were re
fused , a favored iew were admitted to the
eorridors. Your correspondent accoms
panied by an artist, called opon Warden
Crocker, who firat called attention to tbe
scaffold nt>oi. which Guitesu will be ex
cuted l* the jury find iiiin guilty. (Jpon
this instrument of death I lit en criminals
have alreadr expiated their crimes.
Among the number is one whore head
was lorn clear from bis body The
structure is firm and well braced and
commands a full view of the corridor
which cioases the roduuda to tiuiteau's
plane ol confinement and in passing to
and from the jail he Is given the full ben
efit of ita appearance.
After making a drawing ot the scat
fold, tbe hall was crossed and the iron
gate anfastenedsWhicb gives entrance to
the narrow where (juliean
is confined. He bas been removed to
the far eud of tbe passage for the day,
where he might eufoy more light and
room. When your correspondent enter,
ed he was found reclining upon a narrow
cot, attired in a red flannel undershirt
and a shining old cutaway coat. He
looked bright and fresh aud said he was
feeling mueh improved in health, as be
bad bad a good rest from the court ser
vice. As to his feelings towards certain
members of the press, he said it would
he alt right iu the end, and with a smile
•hook hands with those he met. He
said be would give his signature to tbe
dooumeut be intended to read in court
when fir*' arraigned to-morrow. He
seemed much pleased to know that three
of the jurors were uuwel', but did not
express bimaelf upou the subject. He
said tbe furnishiug of his autograph to
callers had beoouie quite a feature in
oonnectieu with his confinement. He
signed himsell Charles Ouiteau since be
had estered po'itics last Juue a year aye
aad Charles J. Guiteau orior to that time
as an attorney. He then procured his ink
and paper, and kneeling at a chair, lut ■
nished several autographs. He said that
his brother bad not been down to, see
bitn during 'be day. His callers were here
salfted with a smile and. a bandrsbake and
tiniteaa was lelt alone in bis glory. The
artiet present made a portrait of Gaiteau
in his Sunday attire and ia hie Sunday
cell. ,
The sickness of tbe jurors is the su'»s
ject of much speculation. Mr. Scoville
said this evening he should waive none
of bis tights in the case. It a juror is
taken ill tbe trial must be postponed.
He is ot the opinion nbe esse will go
over on account of ibe juror's sickness.
