Why did Jos. J. Martin the -Re pub-
fle in representative vote; to keep up
the duty, eu paper? We are cursed
with ringr cliques and monopolies, and
Ve hope Mr. Martin can cive some
g jod reason for this act, which (unex-
plaind)we consider an outrage against
every pcor iran In North Carolina, j
The rice of paper has been fwrced to
double its real value by these monopo-
?be, and Mr. Martin is assisting them.
The Blaine brethren have very mod

at Chfcago substantially unanimous for
Sherman ; as nearly so, at least, as New

My Dear "Logix": Circumstance
over which you seem to have no eoa
trol embarrass yea more than frequently.
You tune yocr lyre for the third
term oratorio with a persistency that
should entitle yen to the gratitude of
everybody in the state that is, if, as
yon say, everybody U for Grant.. Don't
yon think, sometimes, that you rather
over do the number ef ardent admirers
of the r x-rresident, tnafc you get in ft
rcomsa to epcak, with about thou
sand in rr.irs or other reflecting glasses
and s?if yourself in all cf them and
not knowing who it is, say, this is the
whole of Nosth Carolina, as I' am. a
truthful man. Turn mas, come here
let us wriie to the Time that the dele
gation will be solid. - ; !
It i.- said, Login, that man h fcar
frrUy Rud wonderfully, made, whether
thU be so or not generally in youri case
it is cnc'uiveiy proved and yep are
wanted as a delegate to Cbicago,'tn faet
you are nqw a necessity as thjj Moses
ja Egypt to ike Grant beoro, the third
term clairvoyant who looks into futurity
with. lunatic confidence and sees not
only sr;id North Carolina bnt the whole
RepuMicau delegation one thousand
strong,' marching into Chicago with
third term crape on their hat, singing
"G d sive the King.''

first coming to view, and afterward
gradually diminishing until the last
quarter is? reached, when they retire to
a thin edge and present proportions
similar to the third term delegates from
North Carolina. The, only nearer com-
' o ,
parison I now-think of is a moon in a
dark night or the daytime.
As a prophet yon lay over any that
ever fcre built, only it is necessary to

There has been for the past week,
great excitement over the matter. The
contest was between Maj. Charles M.
Stedman and Hon. Alfred M. Waddell,
candidates for the' nomination for
Concress. The canvass has been bitter
in the extreme, not only between the
friends of the contestants, but between
th' contestants- themselves. Messrs.
Kidman and Waddell. have made a
personal canvass of the entire city. Ud
late and early, encouraging their
friends, therefore, they run together
msny times.and the language they used
to each other during these short inter
j views was not at all complimentary. But
their friends did not stop at words,

contestants defying the officers .of the

of their way, er take the middlaof thej
streets to get to their homes, r Seme of
the ofiicera of the law were drunk.
The charges made against each candi

Through the kindness of the; llv.
Dr. Sears, agent of the Peabedy Ftind,
a sum has been given to assist in rav-
lnff the eXDenses of teachers whosa own
means will not enable them to attend
. r:
the school. This fund will be applied
to the payment of travelling expenses,
so that ail students may reach the
school on an equality.
All persons desiring aid will apply
to President Battle at Ohaoel Hill, bv
mail, before May 20th, so that each one
may Jearn m advance what amount he
will receive.
TEXT BOOKS.
Text-bsoka will be loaned free of
charge to all persons attending the
school.
Thus it will be seen that for five or
six dollars any teacher in our state may
attend the exercises . of the Normal
school, and secure for himself and his
pupils its incalculable blessings.
