The grain grower wants mi aure to enrich his land, and o dispose of his grain at the highest rates. Both of these objects, it is freely admitted, can be beat attained by feeding the grain to good growing animals and sell ing them at the highest market rates; and spreading their voidings' on the land. The stock raiser wants grain at the least cost to himself to enable hiioo to fatten out his stock most cbeaplv and fit each animal for the highest market lie o&n best attain this end by raising big crops of grain on his own land by the aid oi t manure of his stock. There aie; other advantages in combining these two branches of agriculture,;; but the most important are that it enables the farmer to enrich his land, to keepjtt clean and to make the greatest profit.

Bangor, Lewiston, Bath, Augusta and larger towns all report "a fine day." Bangor, Me., September 10. The election is progressing quietly here and the vote is rather lighter than usual. There is much cutting on local candi dates. No estimate has been made as yet on the gubernatorial majority. Lkwiston, Me., September 13 The indications are that a light vote will be cast in this oity. The republican ticket will undoubtedly have a majority.

The Str-king spinners at Schuyler & Body's mill did not go to work this morning. The spinners' assembly has resolved to stand by the strikers.

If Rip Van Winkleism ever existed in the "Old North State" it is a thin of the past, even in these sections which we, ourselves have lately seen fit to ac cuse of being slow and without energy in business matters.

Specimens of their shelve and counter works in Fayette ville go muoh further 'to attest their efficiency than any ; written descrip tion. Jonesboro contains almost as many w a , 1 . business houses as residences, and each house is doing a thriving business. Out of not more than ten firms, eight take the Nsws and OB8aitvR, which fact alone might diminish; any surprise at the extensive business done in a town no larger. The oolossal tobacco ware house, "the Jumbo," of Messrs. Buch anan & Berrjman is rapidly meeting completion. The dimensions are 90x150 feet, with two -story front, ihe grand opening sale will occur Ootober 1st. Everybody will be cordially invited and those who attend will be entertained by a picnic and barbecue on a grand scale.!

A stock company has recently been formed here for: engaging in the tobacco busi ness with Capt. A. B. Williams as pres ident and E. 1. McKethan, Esq., secre tary and treasurer. A public library, well supplied with books and periodicals, mainly due to the philanthropic efforts of Mr. E. T. McKethan, is a feature of the town. Probably the most extensive carriage and buggy works in, the State are located here. State papers almost from 1820 to date contain advertisements of A. A. MoKetban & Son, carriage manu facturers. The buildings cover and en close about an acre of ground and are in charge of a foreman who has been in the employ of the firm for fifty-one years and never lost any time from sick ness.

Cobb had given them to un derstand a few days previous that he could not tolerate the harastings and associations of his confederates and would therefore withdraw from the contest, but like the proverbial dog and sow he turned again to his vomit and wallow ings before they were oold.

THI RILIir GREAT AND TXT ONLY SMALL RILATIVKLV. Charliston, S. C, Sept. 13. Thore is not much change in the situation to day, but strenuous efforts are being made to: patch up houses in a iude way to make them water-tight and allow residences to be occupied and business to be resumed. Considerable excite ment has been caused by the refusal of bricklayers to work for less than $5 per day. The objection apparently is not so much to the amount asked for as to the character of the work done, many of those claiming the advanced rate being inefficient. Under instructions from the treas ury department Earle Sloan has visited and reported "the fissure on the Savannah and Charleston railroad and finds it due to the contiguity of a mill pond and not the earthquake. Sloan will visit the fissures in and about Summerville and traverse the whole line of the South Carolina rail way"; exartiniDg the phenomena re- tor ted and observing any changes in the evels of the earth." At a special meeting of the city coun cil today mayor Courtenay reported that the amount of the relief fund to this time in i.bout $200,000. He said further that with the large measure of relief necessary to reach the many suf ferers it ws3 hardly necessary to say to the alderui n of Charleston Low small this turn w uld be when divided among the buflercrs 'To show"', hesaid, "the gross ignor ance as to the amount received and the needs of the city, it l as : loen deliber ately suggested that no taxes Le levied next year; tLat the relief J una.- be used instead." As the taxee in 1886 in Charleston reached nearly $900,000, it easily seen how fallacious and mislead ing are such suggestions." A fare broke out at 1.3U p. m. in Ma- lone 's oil mill, corner of Concord and Inspection streets. Loss unknown. Charleston, September Id. The fire today was at the Fernolene chemical works. The loss was trifling Gen. W S.Crawford, U. S.

In conclusion they say: "Let it be understood that in rendering you aid we consider ourselves as co-operating with the relief commit tee and other committees, appointed by the mayor. fixw x orx, Sept.

Correspondence of the News and Obskrvxb. Winston, a. u., oeps 11 ; The democratic county convention meet here today in Brown's opera house. Mr. R. B. Kerner was elected chair man, and came forward and made a ringing democratic speech, that was en thusiastically received. J. he represen tatives of the democratic press of the oounty present acted as secretaries. The following nominations were made, which seem to give grat satifaction: For the house of commons, Mr. Henry rries, of Salem, one of North Carolina's most progressive young men, who will make a valuablo member of the house, in fact no better selection could have been made; for, sheriff, the present encum bent, sheriff 'tJoyer; for clerk of the court, Mr. R. L. Linley; for register of deeds, Capt- D. P. Mast; for treasurer, Mr. Cox. It is thought that Hon. Jas. W. Reid will have a walk over, and his opponent, Mr. Brower, will be left a long way behind. In fact the republi can convention that recently met ncre oould have done better in this section Charlie Reynolds they say would have made by far the best run. Winston is to have another railroad, and from what 1 understand there is something more substantial behind the soheme than gas and paper. I am not authorised, however, to make any fur ther statements at present. Winston is building stores and dwell ings rapidly, and the cry is still more houses and the demand is far beyond the supply.

The convention assembled promptly at 12 o'clock in the courthouse. Many say it was one of the largest conventions ever held lp Greensboro. Hundreds of outsiders not in sympathy with the prohibitionists crowded in till the court house was packed. Everybody seemed curious to witnessB the first attempt of the infant party to walk. R-v Mr. Walker, of the "N. C. Prohibitionist", was elected chairman pro tern. Mr. Walker took the chair in a very neat Bpeeoh, saying that all accu sations against the prohibition party as being an office-seeking party were J now disproved in the fact that he was the only man in the convention who would consent to preside, all the other mem bers haying been asked and having de clined. The convention was then led in prayer by Rev. Albert Peele. j On the suggestion of the chairman the roll of townships was called and all pro hibitionists present were asked to re spond with n- me and postemce as their townships were called, in order to ascer tain the siz? and complexion of the con vention. Amotion was passed to ap point committees on permanent organi zation, resolutions and nominations TLeso being appointed by the chaiir re tired, when the Rev. B. Torfc, of Rock Creek, was introduced and entertained the convention for half an hour with an old-fashioned temperance talk. The convr ution now adjourned until 2 o clrck, when the reports ofxommit 1 c s should be heard. AFTKRWOON SESSION. S'uTtly ter 2 o'clock the oonveiition ws called to order. A motion wa passed to invite the ladies of the W. C. T. U., who were then bfs-nibled in their apartments, to attend the alter noon session of the convention. A com mittee was dispatched, but the ladien re turned thanks, saying they had too much to attend to to be able to get through in time. t The committee on permanent organi zation reported first as follows: For permanent chairman, Win. Love, for secretary Jas. W. Albright. 1 be committee on resolutions ;hen made the following report, which was unanimously adopted after some squab bling over the first article; 1st. Kesolved, that the prohibition platform does not require a surrender- Tip of any other party principles. 2. Resolved, that the prohibition party relinquishes all professed connec tion with other parties. 3rd. Resolved, that the platform of theJState prohibition party be endorsed, 4th Kesolved, that the prohibition party is opposed to the employment of conVTct labor by the State, as in compe tition with honest labor. f At the reading of the last article the bouse cheered vociferously. Amotion was here passed that the convention subscribe for dOO of the N. C. Prohibitionist, to be sent out over the county till after the fall elec tion. The committee on nominations j re ported the following: , ! : Jfor the senate, JNereus Mendenhall ; fori the house, Joseph Ragsdaie and of. J. W. Woody; for sheriff, WL JbJ. McLean ; 'for register of deeds, W.i B. Besbow; for clerk, Martin Cood ; for treasurer, A. G. Kirkman; for sur veyor, Albert Peele ; for coroner, Wal ter Green. These nominations having been rati fied by the convention, speeches were called for from Messrs. Ragsdaie, Woody, Peele and Green, all of whom responded briefly. About this juncture a gentleman in the back part of the houe rose and said he was opposed to every body talking about the election as if it were a foregone conclusion ; that Ihey were to get beat, and then introduced the. Rev- L. B. Gibson colored, of Greensboro, who' delivered himself in a bombastio and rather spread-eagle ora tion. Mr. Andy Dilworth, colored, was then called for, who took the stand and let fly a regular "camp-meeting sockdola ger. '? From, the violence of his gestic ulation he seemed to think that the issuo must be carried by main strength and i i -r . .1 . a. I awkwardness, it is tnougnt ny some that the convention did the ..issue more harm than good. Along towards the close the proceedings savored most too much of rowdyism and ribaldry for an anti- whisky orowd. Then it is a serious question as to how far the negro element shall he allowed to enter into this issue.
