Washington, Aug. 17 At mid
night to-night the Pieaident aus
aonnced his decision to muuter oat
of the service from 75,000 to 100,000
of the volunteers. Those to be dier
ohargid will include three branohet
of the lervica infantry, artillerj
nd cavalry.
From a prominent i fiioial of the
administration it ia undratood to be
the desire of the President to ascer
tain the wiehts of the volunteer
troops themaelvs aa to rcnuining
in the service. One or two organi
zations have already in lighted a des
sire to leave the servioe assocn m
the government oan reasonably do
without them. They are oomposed
largely of business and working men
whose private interests are aiffering
by reason of their absence fiom
home, tio far as the interests of
tbe government will permit,
it is believed that th President
iu the mustering out of tbe volnn
leers will acoomtnodate himself to
the desires of the men .
It may be some time before the
organizations to be mustered out
will be designated, bat the reduction
in the volunteer foroe will be made
as soon as practicable .

Tbe invasion was all the word

This was especially true of More

soldiers took a young white bey

Cue of the colored men broke iotc
tbe residence of a white man, get

white man drew hia gun and at
tempted to fire it, but as the balls
had been withdrawn, the gun did
not fire but only snapped.

had a gun to show the man how to
Ufle it, etc., the negro finally leaving

Opinions eiiflor widely a to the
propplcts of Spain. It is argued that
the war will eventually benefit her
The colonies she will lose have lonj:
been more of a burden than a hslp
to her. It has cost more tn kefp
them in subjection tban Spain bun
received from them Tfco !o"s of

the peninsulu. Properly attended
to, these will proye a far greater
source of wealth and strength than
Spain could ever bave found in her
colonies. As a colon ''i r she is a
failure, and would never bave made
Cuba or Porto Rico aa profitable ae
thrift ard enterprise can make her
home posstbiiioLS.
This is the hopeful view. The
opposite opinion is set forth in the
laut number of The Fortnightly Rc
view by a writer who signs himself
''Spaniard." He draws a very
idoomy picture of what will be the
condition of Spain after peace.
He says the burden of taxation will
be frightful. The public debt,
swollen by the expenses of the war,
will foot up more than .$2,000,000,-
000, the annual interest oharge on
whioh will amount to 1140,000,000
Yet the entire)cational revenue in
prosperous years has not been much
more than $150,000,000. Radia
tion or bankruptcy lies cbarlyln
thope figures. Ther there will fol-
the destruction of thope industries
which the colonies have been made
to support, turning tbou.-ands of
operativea out of employment.
More than 100,000 soldiers will like
wise be set adrift, and 30,000 officers
be put on tLe retiicd list, where the
puy f i r a captain (if Le is lucky
enough to g6t it all) is ubout sixty
cents a day. When all theea holp
b nj. multitudes begin to feci the
pinth of hunger, then, eays ibis
tfpunieh writer, tbe "tocsin of ibe
revolution" will sound, aud it will
depend upon the army whether
Spain shall be Carliet or Republi
can. In any ctse, he thinks it out
of the power of any party "to ex
trioate my unfortunate, ranch be
loved Spain fioni the abyss on the
edge of which sbe is now totter
idg." This writer concludes with these
mournful words :
"Spain makes fcer melancholy
bow to the vast continent which her
enterprise ence opened up to the
world, and exclaim: Moritura te
saluto."
The future of Spain depends upon
her ability to cope with hard condi
tior.8. Germany, at tbe end of the
thirty years' war, was in a far worse
condition than Spain, and yet in a
rorrairkably short time she recovered
and became more powerful than
sne was before. But Spain is not
Germany. Atlanta Journal.

Quite a number of colored people
went Thursday night to witness tbe
piny of the Plantation Specia'ty Co.
in Galon's hall. Q iite a good crowd
of white people, young men mostly,
were ulso "Down Town After Dark"
and dropped np to hear the coons.
This is the most "duncin'est" and
"oingin'est" crowd of colored people
we have had in town lately. Billy
Pride was the star of the play,
"Sunny South," and carried his part
through. Of all limber people this
company has them, and every one of
them is able to ' jine" iu tbe chorus.
Billy Pride is quite an artist with
his bones and Charlie Wortham will
danoe even when ho lies down on his
two chairs. Almost half of tbe
hou6e contained white people, who
cheered the pianist as he changed
bis tunes. two mnsiciaus were
among our number on the left side
and were much interested in his

Next came the. plao in the ordtr

pleasing speeches of the day, having
invited thtni to take dinner witb
him on the 18th diy of Augus',
1899. The invitation was accepted
and thanks extended bim for tbe

Captain J M Alexander then
made a short speech to his uieu who

the bonor bestowed on bim by
eleoting bim as their president, and
also tpoke of tue pleasure it afforded

jealous spirit, lie thinks that be
(Mr. Walter) deserves praise alto
for a deed be committed at Golds
boro in '65, when he lay behind a
fodder stack until the entire stack
was shot over on top of bim. And
the bullets, he said, were singing all
around him. He fays he stuck to
it until it was 6hot down and then
he left (there being no more hiding
plaoe there). But Mr. Dan Lipe
tried to get some of the honor and
esteem from his comrades after Mr
Walter had finished, ho having glyn
Mr. Walter strong support from a
large stump behind tbe sti.ck This
was when the shells were coming
like "hot cukes, ' hestid. Tbe joker
of the crowd, Mr. Jno. Suther, also
told oho on bis comrade, Mr. II u ten
K zziah, despite the fuot that Mr.
Kizziah threatened to tell one buck
on him. Mr. Sinker and Mr. K zs
ziah when near Goldsboroand when
the Bhells were falling all around
them, crept into an old trough and
were eipecting death a' meat any
minute from a bursting shell, in r.
Suther, always "check full" of fun,
thought be would have some fuu off
of his ootnrade. He reached an
oyster shell lying near aud threw it
violently into tbe trough, breaking
it Into pieces. Tbe mourns and
waitings of Mr. Kzziah could
have been heard fur quite a long diss

Mr. Kizz ,.ii siv he luii.l.s thi.t't

and most enjoyed times of tbe dm
when ttei.eold men wbi h id foctfut

Next came an address by R-v. J D

wbioh wis a most excellent one.
and whiob at one time brought
tears into rf". eyp or some
of the members, payiaj; a b:gh trit
utf to them for their bravery from

that the change is a very agreeable
one.
Mr. J E Mooeeand funnily visited
his father's parents in Cabarrus
county, recently. He reports that
Cabarrus will return to tbe Demo
cratic fold. In one neighborhood
he found oix Populists who bave
been strong in that faith but who
will vote with tbe Democrats th's
year. They all eay that their reason
for deaerting the party was because
they needed reforms in the govern
ment of county and State, Tby
now poo how profit a failure has
been made by the so-called leform
ers, that they are willing lo return.

I take this opportunity of ex
pressing to my many friends of

intorcet in mo during my stay
here. I desire specially to thank
the base ball management, tho
players, the club, tho K. of 1'.,
and by no means last Dr. and
Mrs. Youug, who bavo spared no
pains to make my stay pleasant.
To Bay that 1 have enjoyed tLe
few wee'ks I have been hero puts
it mildly. 1 leave Concord with
only ouo regret, viz., that I miht
stay longer. She bus my best
wishes und I shall always remem
ber my summer hero with pleas
ure and shall look upon her every
advancement with every interest.
Yury truly,

Wo aro sorry to linyo to say in
truth and fairness that tie Ciueo
kruphic display in the court house-
Friday night was veiy unsatisfac
tory.
The audience had seen displays
before so far superior that it was
disappointed and many didn't
hesitate to manifest it. Whatever
explanation may be due the
Messrs. Collin and Jones by way
of a broken lens which was order
ed but failed to arrive until Satur
day uioruiug, the manipulation of
the machinery in presenting the
scenes did not seem to be the work
ot an expert iind the pictures were
very indistinct. We are author
ized to say lor tho Indies of the
management that tbey regret ex
ceedingly that the disdlay was not
volno compared with others of the
kind.
