A OKEAT MAN GONE.
Hon. Alexander n. Stephens, Governor
of Georgia, died at Si o'clock, Sunday
morning last. He was about 7 years ohl.
He was in public life for a great while,
nod has gone out without a stain upon
Ids character. His death is a great loss
to the people of Georgia, and to the
country at large. The news of his death
created a pnrfouiid sensation throughout
Georgia. His renmius are Ij ing.in state
at the capitol, in Atlautu, many thou
sands thronging to view them. The Au
gusta Chronicle says: "All denominations
and classes, irrespective of party, are
profoundly moved by the death of this
statesman, patriot and philanthropist.
Lost It ! Nat Atkinson, of Buncombe
who was a spoutiug "liberal last fall, and
whoso lusty voice waked the echos among
hu native hills but changed no votes,
through the influence of the Mott combi
nation, got the appointuientrof Postmas
ter of Asheville as a reward for his valu
able and disinterested labors as a stum
per. Ho has held It two or three mouths
and wheu at last it come up in the Senate
for continuation, that body went back on
Nat. and uow be is disgusted, mopish
and raelaucholly, and no doiibc t -els like
the fellow the cahf run over.
The passage of a tariff bill by the late
Cbngress was not only a geueral surprise
to the country, bat also to the members
of Congress themselves. It was not
thought possible that it would pass eith
er branch, but especially the Senate.
The announcement of its passage was
greeted by the Republicans of the House
by the joyous clapping of hands, in which
the Democrats are said to had small part.
It is well known that the republicans
were afraid to go home to their constitu
ents. without passiug some bill, and it
may yet appear that their action will fail
to satisfy the people.
The act of the Legislature in releasing
the R. it D. R. R, company from the per
foriuaMce of a part of their contract with
the State baa elicited considerable Inter
est, and needs to beuore perfectly un
derstood by the people generally to war
rant their approval. It is fair to suppose
however, that the people's represents
tives did net sacrifice the interest of the
State iu thin matter.
The Raleigh News-Observer snys :
"The act does uot make it obligatory
on the company to build any branch road
either toatary villa or through Kabuu Gap.
It does require work to be begun iu sixty
days, and pushed on the Murphy exten
sion. "The chief change is that if the syndi
cate pays the $600,000 for its bonds own
ed by the State, and builds the road to
the mouth of Nautahala, it may step its
operations at that poiut, and then the
Murphy extension, if not finished, reverts
to the State. '
"In regard to the liability of the State
for the annual interest on the $850,000
first mortgage bonds, we think, come
what may, the State is protected there."
A new edition of the Postoffice Direc
tory is just out and Assistant Postmaster
J. B. Gill draws our attention to the fol
lowing ruling which it contains aud which
is of general public interest :
"Hereafter no matter can be forwarded
in the mails after it reaches its original
address without payment of postage ex
cept letters which have one full rate paid
thereon, namely, three cents, and news
papers and other periodicals which are to
be forwarded to subscribers from one
postoffice to another which are in the
same county where the paper to be for
warded is published and in whole or iu
part printed."
The failure of the River and Harbor
bill will probably arrest the improvement
in the Yadkin River. Considerable ex
pense was incurred in preparations for
the work, which went bravely on while
the weather and water was favorable last
year. We learn that there are means
enough ou hand to carry forward the
work to Swicegood's mill, some 23 or 25
miles from here, at which point there will
probably be a suspension of operations.
Mr. Whitford of the Senate presented
last week thirteen petitions signed by
640 persons, asking the Legislature to
amend the constitution so as to require
every rotor to show his tax receipt before
being allowed to vote. The signers were
mostly prosperous and intelligent colored
men of Craven, Carteret, Jones and
Green comities.
The N. Y. Sun, relates the circum
stances of the suicide of Major Samuel T.

The Philadelphia Beeord says the vote
of the Pennsylvania delegation on the
tariff bill proves once more that the Dem
ocratic politicians of this State are better
tariff men than their Republican oppo
nents. Charlotte Journal : This country is rap
idly assuming the lead of all others as
the land of suicides. There is not a day

Tax: and Tarriff Bill Signed.
Washington, March 4. The President
reached the capitol about 9 o'clock last
night and occupied the Presidential room
near the Senate chamber, for the purpose
of promptly examining and signing bills.
At 2:35 o'clock this morning the tax and
tariff bill was sigued by the presiding of
ficers of both houses, and a few minutes
later was signed by the President, and is
now a law.
Advce to the South.
Hogs and Hominy First The Surplus in
Cotton.
The cotton factors of St. Louis have
united in the following circular in the
hope of influencing the growth of food
products in the South the coming season
St. Louis, Mo., Feb. 24, 1863. To the
Merchants, Farmers, and Tenants of the
Cottou Belt : The South is new on the
eve of planting another crop, and after
an experience of seventeen years it seems
advisable that some change should be
made in her manner of farming, and we
call your careful attention to the follow
ing facts, which are offered with tho sin
cere hope that the people will give them
proper consideration.
Your section possesses the finest farm
ing lauds and 'the most salubrious climate
in the world, and should be to-day finan
cially independent ; instead of having to
borrow a crop before it is made, should
have her corn -bins and larders filled be
fore commencing a crop.
Compare the situation with the farmers
of the North and West. They by sys
tematic labor are growing richer each
year, while you with patient toil and close
economy are neither so thriving nor pros
perous as you should be.
There is a cause for these troubles, and
we, as cotton men, whose interest is close
ly identified with yours, believe we are
in a position to note many of the evils
that exist, ami offer, without presuming,
the following suggestions :
1. The credit system, as at present in
vogue throughout the South, is disastrous
to tho planters and tenants, forcing them
to pay extravagant prices for supplies,
and causing their crops to be forced into
market with such rapidity aud in such
quantities as to break prices almost inva
riably below cost of production.
2. After noting for years the effect of
large crops of cotton, we find that the
over production of this staple is the key
note to the situation and we strongly ad
vise all parties interested in the pros
perity of the South to discourage the
planting of a large acreage this year, and
devote their labors first to the raising of
grain, cattle and hogs, and give the bal
ance of their time to the culture of cot
ton.
This policy Will bring good results in
many ways ; for instance many small far
mers, and large ones also, are so heavily
in debt when their cotton is ready for
sal u Ah at they are compelled to let it go,
even 'though tho. price is below its intrin
sic worth ; while, if they had supplies at
home, produced, and not bought ou cred
it, they could afford to hold their cotton
until they felt justified in selling.
The price of cotton to-day is fully 15
per cent below 'the average of the past
five years, while ou the ether hand, corn
is 33 per cent, and provisions 50 per cent,
above the average. Thus are you loser
both ways.
With the production of enough previs
ions on each farm, cotton would become
a surplus, and soon the incubus of debt
would be lifted from your people, and
each year would record rapid strides in
wealth.
Decreased production of cotton, -and
increased production of bread, meat and
other necessaries will bring about a more
prosperous condition of affairs for the
South, aud instead of Sheriff sales to sat
isfy the mortgages that the poor laborers
must bow give, we would see grinding
poverty banished forever aud plenty
would pour in upon you.
We ask that the merchants and plan
ters of eaclHState, by calling a conven
tion, or in some practicable manner, agi
tate this qnestioa uutil the influence is
felt throughout tho entire cotton belt.

the morning on Mr. Forbis' bill creatiug
a railroad commission. (This bill, which
has been published, is almost precisely
similar to that introduced by Mr. Pin nix
in the Senate, which failed to pass that
body.) The bill came up in the House
on its third reading and passed.
How the Tariff Plunders.
Prof. Sumner, of Yale College, has been
giving some attention to tariff figures to
show what protection actually costs the
American people. He finds that in 1880
the capital iu rested in manufacturing in
the United States was $2,790,000,000.
The number of hands employed was
2,700,000 and the wages paid amounted
to $948,000,000 or an average of $1.17
per day 'for each hand employed. The
materials used amounted in value to $3,
400,000,000, and the manufactured pro
ducts to $5,300,000,000. The manufac
turers, therefore, increased the raw ma
terials $1,900,000,000 in value. The
products of the manufacturing industry
in this country were worth iu the world's
market $3,700,000,000 the tariff made
these products cost us $1 ,600,000,000 more.
Such being the case, Prof. Sumner con
cludes that all the workers in our manu
facturing industries could have beeu paid
their regular wages to hare stood idle,
and that ten per cent, on all tho capital
invested in manufactures could have been
paid, provided that we were allowed to
buy all we wanted in a free market, with
a net gain to this country of $373,000,000.
A similar calculation applied to tho pro
duction of pig iron shows that the wages
of all the workers in iron and ten per
cent, on capital invested in this industry
could have been at a net saving to this
country of $2,800,000.
Millions npou top of millions the Amer
ican people have annually paid these fa
vored wards of protective legislation, and
now they howl as loudly for protection
for their "infant industries'' as they did
when they first asked for a protective
tariff. They are even more exhorbitaut
in their demands now than they were
then, for protection has made them rich
and success has made them bold. Char.

It may not be generally known, but is
nevertheless a fact, that both buffalo and
elk once abounded in the illey of the
Yadkin in Caldwell and Wilkes. Daniel
Boone aud the hunters who succeeded
him, soon exterminated the buffalo herds,
which, it appears, were never very abun
dant, but the elk took refuge in the
mountain gorges and was for many years
the pride of the chase to the valley hun
ters; the last elk being killed by Col. Win.

OJTLT
One of the most remark able'in vent ions of
the present age is Allcok's Porous Plas
ters. They are the result of years of chem
ical study, and only time and experience
has brought them to their present perfec
tion. Testimonials are received every day
of the wonderful cures of Sprains, Weak
Back, Rhematism, Lumbago, Paralysis and
hosts ot other diseases. Ot course the vast
sales and greatsuccess'of Allcock's Porous
Plasters nave caused numerous plasters
to be brought before the public which, be
ing called porous, would give the world to
understand that they were a similar article
to the genuine. We would most particu lar-
y caution the public against these hum
bugs, lhey contain none ot the healing
gums that are used in Allcock's, but are
simply a combination of lead, red pepper
and rubber, and are vaunted in -long wind
ed advertisements as an improvement on
Allcock's Porous Plasters. Beware of
the hazy and untrue statements and never
use any of these so-called porous frauds.

Thus they will restore to the busy active
brain ot man or woman, the energy and
ability which has been lost by disease, wor
ry or overwork. They restore vitality
where there has been debility and nervous
ness, and prevent loss of memory and pa
ralysis. Physicians highly recommend them
for nervous debility, whejher arising from
dissipation or overwork. They are now
known to be the great regenerators of the
nervous system and are invaluable in all
cases of hysteria.

I have been greatly troubled with Rheu

to try Allcock's Porous Plasters (had

of yours has worked like a charm, giving
me complete relief, and I have not been

Allcock's Plasters have been of such
great service to me and mine that I feel it
a duty to state the tacts, as briefly as possi
ble, to induce others to use them. My wife
for many years was confined te her bed,
suffering from spins! disease. After spend
ing a thousand dollars in vain effort to get
cured, she applied three Allcock's Plas
ters to the spinal column, one above the
other. In a few days nil pain left her.
She applied fresh plasters every two weeks
and in the course of two months she com
pletely recovered her health. At first she
could hardly walk across the room; each
day she walked a little further, and now
she is able to walk five miles without fa-
tigne. She still occasionally applies the
planters to her back, but she has been per
fectly well for upward of a year.

No familv should be without Allcock's
Pouous Plasters; their healing powers are
wonderful and. their efficacy far-reaching
and lasting. For years past I have seen
and known them to cure and relieve the
most obstinate and distressing cases of
rheumatism, kidney complaint, bronchitis,
neuralgia, lumbago, inflamation of the
lungs and throat, paralysis, asthma, spinal
weakness, and coughs and colds. In my
own case they afforded me almost instant
and permanent relief. My friends consider
them an invaluable and speedy remedy toi
all kinds of aches antf pains. They arc a
blessing-in disguise; and no wife or mother
should be without them if she values her
peace and comfort and freedom from ner
vous exhaustion and other ailments. As a
strengthening plaster, also for backaches
and weakness, they have no, equal. I have
never yet found aplaster so efficacious and
stimulating, or to give so much general sat
isfaction. Used in connection with Bran
dreth's universal life-giving and life-healing
Pills, no one need despair of a speedy
restoration to good sound health.
