A Mr. Kobert fJrirfen, the Brit ish philosopher, takes a deci ded gloomy view of tlie future of the eartvi as a habitation for mankind. Mr. Griffen believes the human race will some day "play out," through the lack of food. He assert that t lie pres sure if population upon the means of subsistence is now deeply felt in the 'rhief coun tries of Europe; there is a rapid encroachment upon agricultural resou ces; 1 2,0)0,00 of the peo ple"of Oreat Britain and mil lions of the people of other European countries are sus tained bv .American nupplies Mr: Griffen has convinced him self in brief, that the mems of subsistance is being .trenched upon everywhere in the Old World, and eventually the same state of thiiigs-must come to pass in all parts of the earth. The Times Star, combatting these views, says it would Heem that the facts hardly warrant the conclusion arrived at by this English philospher; that lie had been at pains to make out as bad a case as possible, and fails to give due weight to very important considerations. England imports food, but it does net follow that England if unequal to the task of pro ducing enough food for her population, and, , more than enough. The yield of wheat on English farms to-day is only 2G bushels per acre. U ndoubt edly this might be doubled by scientific methods of farming. Moreover. 7,r00,(KX) acres of the most fertile in England is not now under cultivation. In the whole of Great i -, " , 1 are 23,000.000 acres of land yet : JM1LU.111 Lllt'lti j iuic, 4. acnu 1u.11 11.1 ciio therefore capable of sustaining , a population immensely greater than they now have;j and if there is at present a pressure of population upon the means, of subsistence, it arises from con ditions which ought not to ex ist Will not the logic rf nec essity inevitably change these conditions, and with the general application of science to agri culture, we may not expect that Great Britain will beas'densely peopled centuries hence as Elanders is to-day?

The Newspaper Credit System " I twn B CO" emlwra)' In iImgt0n Star j n a timely mini V 4i . I eu"ori.ai ' l"e ""nous effects of the credit system as illustra ted in the newspaper business. It uses a strong argument in favor of the ' no pay, no paper" idea by citing the case of an ex-editor who would be worth 815,000 to-day if those who owe him for subscription would pay up. Hundreds of just such cases could be cited if necessary. It is a well known fact that' fkmthern newspaper men are poor that they are miserably paid for their labor, and that people who take news papers on a credit are proverbi ally alow in paying for them. Our own experience has been enough to convince us that no newspaper can make money and pursue the credit system. The editor of this paper has lost upwards of three thousand dollars in the last three years KnfJini?the Daner to prati- ising instead of paying .sub--' scribers. A system so ruinous to such a number of men ought to be stopped Every, newspa per in the State ought to adopt the plan of Northern papers and discontinue a man's paper just as noon as the time he paid forexpires. This is the only cor rect and business-like' .way to manage a newspaper, and until the editors in the State come to realize and. adopt it they will continue to Work for noth ing, and have their labors un appreciated. But some one will say "why do you not sanction your preaching by your practice?" The answer is that it is diffi cult to start a reform, when sur rounded by a half dozen papers that adopt the credit system it is next to impossible for one paper to stand out alone and proclaim "ho pay, no paper." People who take his paper on a credit would stop it, when he demanded cash in advance and take those papers that gave credit. We believe in the "survival of the fittest" and we have no doubt if an editor had the mony to run his paper a year or two without being , ... - . . . , dependent on ins receipts mat , . ". . n7. ntl, basis and establish it on a solid foundation. But few editors can do this and the great mass ! of them struggle along in pov- erty when if ther would bine they would have it in I their power to make their j patrons pay for what they get, and editors would make a!House bill decent living. r"CIlIlcl Ui" i"?" v ""..!

Tariff. The word tariff is said to be derived from the name of the Moorish townTarifa, near Gib raltar in Spain. Being held by pirates, it was there they first levied tribute upon the com merce of mankind. Like their prototypes, the lords of the looms, mills and furnaces, con tinue to-day to levy their in sufferable exactions upon the varied industries of the-coun try. Every session of Con gress the people are promised relief, but the unjust tribute wrenched, rom the sons of toil, continues to be as mer cilessly demanded. The tariff has been too long a political hobby for thoughtful people to hope for its equitable adjust ment. . The roving commission sent out last year with such a "flourish of trumpets," and from whose investigation such beneficial results were antici pated, has turned out to be a stupendous failure, and the effort of Congress through its recommendation, to effect an equitable readjustment of the system, a solemn mockery of justice. . The reductions which have been made, have been at the expense of that class of people, whose burdens - have been heretofore most oppres sive. The laboring classes are still taxed upon almost every article which they use or con sume. Articles of luxury which the rich only can afford have been deemed of sufficient importance to merit remedial legislation. l)odrinr Somewhere.. There were two railroad Commission bills before the last Legislature, one having been introduced in the Senate, and the other in the House of Representatives. A majority of the members were under stood to be in favor of passing a bill creating a Railro id Com- l mission, and each bill actually com-r""0,".', , Mluau i ?sa lfte,. Doay belwre !

North Carolina is no longer to be kuown as "a narrow strip of land between two States." Senator Kellogg of Louisiana, has been indicted for Star Route rascality. A frai.tical Cliio statesman is quoted as saying that the Governorship of the Buckeye State with $3,400 a year does not meet his figures. "I have had enough of the thank you business in politics, and 1 am now inclined to xaite iagu advice and put money in my. purse. The glory of fame is an empty thing and I would rather leave my wife and chil dren the legacy of a good edu cation and a comfortable competence than that they should sleep under the shadow of ; the finest monu ment ever erected by the adu lation of mankind. "What has the wife anxl family of a great statesman after lie has died a pauper? What would Mrs. Garfiekthave to-day had she not been favored by peculiar circumstances? Wliat is Gar field's glory to-day? I tell you the world is forgetting him already and the funds for his monument are growing very slowly. Ittfs so with the glory of fame. The great man dies ; the world stops a second and then rushes madly on. In a short time he is forgotten and often, if he died poor, the people would say: "Yes he was a, great man, but he never laid up anything. He worked all his life and left his family poor." There is truth in the Ohio statesman's remarks. A problem for the doctors is presented in the person of A. M. AVilhelm, a youth of Ca barrus county, North Carolina, who is afflicted with an extra ordinary malady which baffles the skill of the scientific and practical ' physicians. If the feet of the boy be placed in an ordinary bathing tub filled with cold water, in about eight minutes the water will be made so hot that the heat can be felt through the staves of the tub. The boy suffers intense pain describing his sensations like having his. feet in a bed of hot coals all the time, while at times these pains are almost beyond endurance. He is car ried about with Iris feet in a tub of cold water, the water becoming so heated that fre quent changes become necessaj ry.
