A matter that vitally concerns the farmejs of the south is referred tp in circular which is being sent out by numerous cotton manufacturing - com panies' of the New England States. These manufacturers claim that.it has been a custom prevailing to too great a degree for farmers to wrap cotton in discarded sugar sacks. They claim that tnis injures the staple to considera ble extent, and they urge farmers to dis continue the practice. Th circular is as follows : "Boston August 1.- President of the New "jTork Exchange. Dear Sir : We, treasqrersof cotton manufacturing com panies in Isew.

Thirds; There ase inventions which promised to be useful, but utterly Iailed in their purpose. They were -thought by the inventor to be valuable, but when sub- lecfed to a practical test were found to be useless, and were therefore discarded at once and we have never given them a second thought. Here, then, is the inexorable and jre- lentless law namely, that which is use ful lives as long as it remains useful, and not a moment longer, while the useless raises its head above -the water for an instant only, and then wnks under the drowning wave, never to reappear. The law is applied with despotic en ergy, xne good remains ; tne Daa. is lost sight of. Nothing under heaven can keep an idea on the surface unless it rightfully belongs there, and it will hold its position only so long as it is valuable t ) the community. Some books, are like snowflakes on a lake; they just touch the surface and then disappear. If, however, a book, any book, keeps at the front for twenty generations you may be perfectly sure that there is a good reason for it. We do not treat the Bible with re- spent because the Uhurch teps us we must believe it to be the Word of God, but because it helps us to be noble men and women because it is a purifying and elevating influence and must there fore be in some sense, God's revelation to the world. : Treat the Bible in a broad and gener ous and hospitable way. When you you make a meal of a fish and a few bigots may tell you that rbu shall eat bones and all. You exercise your com mon sense, however, and neither eat the bones nor throw the whole dish out of the window because some one has a stupid theory about it. You know well enough that parts of the fish are palata ble and nutritious, and the narrowness of the bigot will not make you chok: yourself with the bones, nor will the adverse cnticism-.of the doubter per suade you to go hungry. Use the Bible as you do the fish. It is nourishing, strengthening and health giving. Make it your daily food, and if perchance you come across a bone don't try to swallow it, but lay it aside ami go on with your meal. : -" life is too short for argument, and sorrows are so shirp that we cannot get on without consolation if it can be found. Go where you will for contort in your struggles, and God speed you in : your search ; but we doubt if you will find as much elsewhere as in the blessed Book on which so many sad heads have been pillowed, and in the promise it contains that after life's fitful fever you shall wake from Bleep and be welcomed by greeting dear ones who have waited for you; and for whom you have grieved, these many long years. : Total coin ing value, - $70,505.64 The total mining industry in : North Carolina kas been touch clepressea, and during the year 1893 sank to a lower point than has been known in twenty- five years, -. .

It is not surprising that the result of last week's election, in Alabama has ex cited widespread intersst and that it is erpected to have a widespread influence There has been no more comprehensive comment, in few words, upon it, than the following from the Louisville "Cou rier-Journal : "This result teaches not only that the South has not lost its head and been swept off its Democratic feet, but that successful politics is something more than a mere game of combinat:.on and assault upon the party in power. There can be no common giound of principle upon which honest Republicans and Populists can unite in Alabama any more than there can he such a ground upon which honest Democrats and Populists can unite in Kansas. The political party which lives and becomes powerful in this country must be a par ty of principle and not of jpe-e opposi tion to parties of principle. The Populist party, when fused with either of the other parties, is only a party of opposi tion : when standing alone it is scarcely (less a party of mere opposition, for ; the principles it professes to advocale are m themselves inconsistent and impossible of combination in any intelligent ad ministration of the affairs of the coun iry." :,V--- V .- Because all of the -foregoing is .true we have had no fear that either the Populists and Republicans would get power in North Carolina. There are nO principles upon which these two ele ments are agreed, . and the people are not apt to turn out of power a party of principle which has given the State an almost perfect administration of public affairs, merely because the elements of opposition for which opposition they can themselves give no reason want to get in. - - ' Tne Issue in Alabama. "While there are 'AVedemand the Though the question Of Senatorial primaries aa only discussed seven or eight weeks it commanded one-fourth of the entire vote of theState conven tion, even with the delegates of several counties which had instructed fur pri maries voting aeainst the uronoaitinn. It is an agitation w-bich Will be contin ued junttl it wins ana Senatorial prima ries have become a-part of the estab lished jxlicy of North Carolina Democ racy. The action of the State Conven tion in no sense takes away, nor could it take away, the right of each county and township to hold primaries and instruct their delegates how to vote o any lueer uon. particularly erne as important and vital; to the people as that of the selec tion, of United States Senators. Thepeople then' still have practically the power to choose their own Senators, if they will attend the township primaries and see to it that their will is expressed, and then enforce tr hy instructions in the county convention. The recent object lesson; in Virginia ought , to cause Democratic voters in North Carolina to take an active part in township primaries and .county conven tions this vear, particularly. Though Virginians all say that Fitz Lee was the choice of VirginiaDenocracy for United States Senator, Mr. Martiu was elected by the legislature. If the members of the Virginia Legislature had been in structed, the will of the people would not have been defeated. If Democratic voters in North Caroli na have any choice for United States Senators it is their duty and privilege to go to township primaries and express that choice, and any candidate for office, whether high or low, who is unwilling to submit his claims to "the people,. it is not of the people and- is not entitled to represent them. What They Did. Atlanta Journal. Some of those newspapers which are forever looking out for some attack on President Cleveland and which some times invent them when the outside supply runs short, have been howling over the ''fact" (?) that the North Caro lina Democratic -convention refused to endorse the President. What the North Carolina convention did is on record and from the record we take the following resolution, which was unanimously adopted by that con vention :. "Resolved, That we admire the cour: age and lofty patriotism of the Presi tlent. and that we most heartily commend his prompt and effective action under law for suppression of efforts of alien anarchists to disturb by force" and ; violence true relations of labor and capital ; his sturdy efforts to secure enactment of tariff reform, ss called for in the party platform ; his prompt approval of the bill repealing the federal election law, notable reduc tion of expenses of government under his administration and freedom from scandal have been such marked features of his return to the head of affairs."
