DISRAELI DEAD.
Lord Beaconsfield is dead, and in
his death Great Britain has lost one
of the most distinguished of those
illustrious statesmen who ever ruled
her destinies. His career was indeed
wonderful, and though descended
from the despised and persecuted
race of Jews he became the Prime
Minister of Europe's greatest nation,
and his favor courted by the mightiest
potentates of the world. He was
more generally known as Disraeli, and
had attained quite a celebrity as an
author of fiction.
THE DOG TAX.
Many persons erroneously think
that the late Legislature passed a law
levying a tax on all dogs. This im
pression doubtless arose from a mis
understanding of a law that was pass
ed. The Legislature passed an Act
allowing any person to libt his dog
for taxation and making it larceny to
steal such dog. Our Supreme Court
has heretofore decided that it is not
larceny to feloniously take a dog, be
cause at common law there was no
property in a dog. The object of the
sew law is to allow persons who have
valuable dogs to indict any one who
may steal them. So that now, any
owner of a dog can, if he wishes, list
it for taxation and pay the annual tax
of one dollar, and indict for larceny
any person who may steal it The
tax thus collected is to be paid into
the common school fund.
THE PROHIBITORY BILL.
Our late Legislature has been cen
sured for its passage of the prohibi
tory liquor law, not only by those
who are opposed to prohibition but
also by many prohibitionists. It is
very natural that all those persons
who are opposed to prohibition,
should censure the Legislature for
enacting any law that might tend to
wards its adoption, but we are
suprised that any person, who favors
prohibition, should censure the Leg
islature for its recent action. Instead
of commending the Legislature and
earnestly advocating the ratification
of the proposed law, many extreme
prohibitionists have been loud in
their denunciation of the Legislature
for not having enacted an unqualified
prohibitory law, and are making all
manner of fun at the bill that was
passed. Of course this is neither
proper nor politic, and they cannot
better please the liquor men than by
continuing in such a course. Instead
of criticising the bill all prohibition
ists should give it their hearty and
united support, and its alleged de
fect s can best be known and remedied
after it is ratified by the people, put
in force and tested by experience.
Those prohibitionists, who so bitter
ly denounce the Legislature for its
want of " back bone," should bear in
mind that the Legislature passed just
such a bill as was at first asked for.
All the first petitions presented to
that body only asked that the ques
tion might be submitted to a vote of
the people, and it was only after the
Prohibitory Convention met at Raleigh
that a demand was made for an abso
lute law.
We think that the enactment; of an
unqualified prohibitory law by the
Legislature would rather have retar
ded than advanced the cause of pro
hibition and have done more harm
than good, and would have been re
pealed by the next Legislature. Our
people are very sensitive as to their
"rights" being taken away or tamper
ed with by their law-makers,and would
have regarded such action as an un
just and improper infringement on
their rights, and this too by many
who will vote for the proposed law.
Men will sometimes deny or deprive
themselves of what they consider a
right or privilege when they would
resent such an attempt by others. If
a majority of the people should vote,
in August next, against prohibition
and the bill be defeated, surely the pas
sage of an absolute law by the Legis
lature would have been still more un
popular, and indeed so unpopular
that through the sympathy of public
opinion it would not have been en
forced. We believe that by a judi
cious amd active campaign in behalf
of the bill the people will ratify it, and
that public opinion will be so aroused
and such a healthy tone of public sen
timent created in favor of prohibi
tion as to ensure the enforcement of
the law. The cause of prohibition
has everything to gain and nothing
to lose by a discussion before the peo
ple, and the more animated the can
rasa the greater are the chances of
success.
Let the prohibitionists then cease
their complaints, unite heartily in
support of the proposed law, conduct
an active, stirring campaign, and their
brightest hopes may yet be realized.
WASHINGTON LETTER.
Trom our Regular Correspondent.
Washington, April 15, 1881.
From a Washington, or rather, from
a national standpoint, the principal
event of this week has not been the
personal rencontre in the Senate be
tween the Senator from Virginia and
the Senator from Georgia, but an is
sue of a notice by the Secretary of
the Treasury that, on July 1st, he
would pay the interest on nearly
$200,000,000 6 per cent, bonds which
will be due on that date. The notice
was accompanied by an offer from the
Treasury Department to the bond
holders to extend the bonds at an in
terest of 3 1 per cent., as long as the
Government may desire to have them
run. By turning the 6 per cent into
3 1 per cent, bonds the Government
will effect a saving of nearly five
millions annually in the amount of
interest paid on the public indebted
ness. No matter how few or how
many of the 6 per cent, bonds may
be extended, it is known that the
Treasury has ample means to cash
them all. These means consist of
$104,000,000, which can be issued at
4 per cent, and of $80,000,000 or
$90,000,000 surplus revenues. It is
now certain that nearly $200,000,000
of the 6 per cent debt will be either
liquidated or converted into 3 per
cent, debt this year.
The Senate has adjourned until
Monday, and the millionaires of that
august body will have an opportunity
to rest from the arduous labors of a
six weeks deadlock. During these
six weeks of what will probably be
known in history as the " long Sen
ate." the chamber has been unani
mous only on the question of adjourn
ment every day promptly at the din
ner hour. There was a good deal
of talk last night about a caucus of
Republicans, and of a possibility that
the controversy will come to an end
some time next week. It is stated
that a caucus had actually been call
ed for Saturday. This was partially
agreed upon, but at the request of
Vice-President Arthur and Senator
Conkling, who have pressing busi
ness in New York, on that day, it was
postponed until Monday next A
Republican u stalwart" said that the
calling of this caucus did not indicate
that there was any purpose on the
part of the Republicans to recede
from their position. On the contrary.
they are as determined now as ever
to carry their point and elect their
officers before consenting to a final
adjournment The Republicans are.
however, at least impressed with the
importance of transacting some of the
business for which the Senate was
convened. The President has urob-
ably been working in a silent but
forcible manner to induce them to
have some regard for his wishes. At
all events, it is understood that he
has felt a ereat deal of embarrass
ment by the failure of the Senate to
confirm certain nominations, and has
made his feelings fully known to Re
publican Senators. . f J
About Editors.
Every editor loves to have his
fnende, and particularly his readers,
call on him. They belong to the
same family, as it were. But when
you call to see the editor don't stay
too long. Hiditors are generally very
busy in business hours. If you have
any suggestions to make or news to
communicate, state it in as few words
as possible. Don't ofler any excuses
or indulge in a long preface to what
you have to say. Blurt it right out;
ten tee editor you wish him well, and
uiu mux gooa-aay. jcjcuiors aoie on
such men as that; they love to re
ceive calls from them. Don't argue
with them; don't try to do it; he has
no time for argument while at his
work.
When you write to an editor for
publication, make it short boil it
down. Pitch right into the middle
of your subject, and be sure to stop
writing when you are through. Edi
tors always like something fresh and
uugiutu m me way ox communica
tions, and are especially fond of news
But the editors must always be the
judge of what is worthy of publica
tion. Of course every writer thinks
nis own production the best, just as
every mother thinks her baby the
prettiest that ever was born. But
the editor may be so stupid as to
have a different opinion. If so, it
can't be helped. Don't try to argue
him out of his notion. If he is too
stupid to appreciate a eood tinner.
you can't expect to remedy his dull
ness, lou may think you are a good
ueai smarter tnan tne editor, and
that may be true, but the editor mav
be responsible and you are not There
is no class of people so covetous nf
the good opinion of others. It is well
to remember that fact Prinr

A Losing Joke.
A prominent phvsician of Pitta.
burgh said jokingly to a lady patient
who was complaining of her contin
ued ill health, and of his inability to
cure her, "try Hop Bitters!" The
lady took it in earnest and used the
Bitters, from which she obtained per
manent health. She now laushs at
the doctor for his joke, but he is not
so well pleased with it, as it cost him
a good patient. Harrisonburgh Patriot.
Analyses of Chemicals.

SULPHATE OF AMMONIA
should be and is ordinarily one of the
pareBt chemicals used for these pur
poses. Beside the actual ammonia
salt it should contain but a very

According to the terms of a mort
gage which was registered at the
court house last week, a man convey

to secure a debt he owed him. The
deed was duly witnessed and execu

leased her interest in him. Now the
question is, can a man mortgage
himself? Can he convert himself
into personal property and use it as
collateral ? If he can it opens up a
resource which will be hailed with
joy by many who know from expe-
nence what it is to be hard pressed,
Why cannot the thirsty toper whose

self for a drink ? Why cannot the

pnt himself on the ace or deuce and

Tax on Marriage Licenses.
Mr. E. J. Hale in a recent letter to
the Fayetteville Examiner, says:
"There is one item in the Revenue
Law of North Carolina that I have
long wished to see repealed, viz: that I
oi a tax on marriage licenses. But
instead of repeal, I see that the late j
Legislature has increased the tax
fifty per cent., that is, to a dollar
and a half. It is against public pol
icy to throw obstacles m the way of I
mar i iage, and especially since the
uegroes, to whom such a sum is of
mure moment than tc the whites, are
equally bound to pay the tax. If the
State must have the few thousands
that the tax yields, let it be collected
from the men who don t marry. Be
fore the meeting of another Legis
