Be prosperously shaped and sway thy course

The Publio Debt.
Iu 1868 the national debt was $2,611,-
687 861, Graot was in power eight years
During thoce eight years the debt was
reduced tos2 180,395,067.15 The fioan
eial records show that but fur the wide"
spread oorruptioo, thieving, profligacy,
wastefulness and extravagance the debt
would have been redueed six or eight
, hundred million more It is well known
that the taxes were most extraor diumy
. and that huudrods of million dollar* were
ooilected from the poopt® and absolute!/
stolen, misapplied, or wasted. Under
Hayes there has been no reduction of
the public debt, in spite of heavy faxes
and the so called great financial abili'.y
of the Secretary of the Treasury, John
. Sherman.
Hayes went into office on March 4,
1877 The first year the publio debt
actually rose from $2 180 395,067 to
$2 205,301,392. By the end of 1878 it
bad riseo still higher, and by July, 1879.
it had attained to 82 349 767,482 That
is to say, it was as great in 1879 as it
was in 1872, after buudieds of millions
had been raised by taxation for the pur
pose of paying off tbe uebt. Grant was
bad enough, but under him the public
debt was reduced 8430 292.598—an an
nual average of $53,000,000 in rouud
numbers Under Hayes it has actually
increased $56,000,000 in round numbers
annually.
Docs this not show that there is neces
sity for not only a change of Presidents,
but a change of parties ? The people
—(he heavily burdened taxpayers, must
think so. Think of it, taxpayers ; under
Hayes the debt increases every month
$4 500,000. That is enough to run the
Siate government of North Carolina for
eight years. No people can be prosper
ous and contented with extravagant, uu
faithful and dishonest officials There
ought to be a ohange, and there will be
a ohange in 1881, if the peonle them
selves are not corrupt e'iough to approve
oorruption and wastefulness in their
servants.

The demonstration on April 26tb, in
tt.is city, demonstrated that the love and
reverence for the memory of the Confed
erate dead glows as warm and pure as
ever in the hearts of Sout' ern men and
women. During the afternoon our prin
cipal street was well-nigh deserted. A
few small establishments on side streets
were kept open The audience to bear
the speeob was very large, and the proces
sion was imposing. The oration was a
brilliant tribute to tbe fallen braves of
the lost cause; it was eloqueutly spoken,
heard with close attention, and warmly
applauded Tbe cemetery bad been made
bright and beautiful, and tbe deoorations
of the graves were universal.
lacked for flowers. Tbe observance of
the day has become a custom that will
ever be faithfully executed Fifteen an
niversaries hove passed, and tbe last was
characterised by the same enthusiasm as
the first The ranks of tbe soldiery were
full a* usual, and thousands thronged to
"God's acre," and strewed floral gifts
over tbe sleeping dust Then, too, the
Confederate oolore were displayed near
the Confederate monument. The vindio
tive may howl and misrepresent if they
wish.. The flag adopted by tbe Confed
erate Congress in February, 1865, was
flung to tbe breeze from the same cord
from which was suspended the Stars and
Stripes and the banner of Georgia. They
ate all our standards. If the politicians
desire further to groan and make capital,
we m*y tell tbem the oonquered banner
floated aa proudly as those of the Union
and our own Commonwealth, and tbat
tbe "rebels" were well pleased. If some
"conservative" Northern Democrats
should feel horribly shocked, they might
as wall be informed tbat it was our mc
morial day, in honor of tbe Soiuban
dead, and our people thought the display
just what it ought to have been. If suafc
acts affect their votes in tbe Presidential
campaign, tbey should reflect that they
are more interested in winning than tbe
South is, ahd we oan stand a Republican
Executive with as much equanimity and
satisfaction. We are becoming very in
-1 different as to seotional criticisms

On duy last week a man at Fort
Wajfie, Indiana, employed a young man
, to lity some onsets He waß a handsome
young man, with a romsnttc oast of mind
not « all in hatmony with carpet laying.
He net the daughter of thu house, who
also kad a romantic streak aud au aduii- i
ratiop for handsome yojng men, which,
it sesjbcd, was as likely to absorb a carpet ;

* or, rather, she belfeveff she hail

didn't take the trouble to inquire upy
thing about the carpet layer. He wus
just tjo beautiful for anything, aud so
romantic, and that was all that was re
q'lired to make a good husband Tin ,
young woman agreed to marry hiiu al
most on sight. She did not even say
anything to her father about it, fearing
that he might be willing, and thus frus
trate her romantic lit tie schemes or au
elopement. She hi 1 her tender young
heart so set upon sliding down a rope
from a back window that she couldn't
bear to think of being disappointed.
Well, of course, she had her own roman
tic way about it; tbe programme was
carried out in a charmingly romantic
fashion and the cermet layer and the
young woman got away to Indianapolis
and were married before tbe situation ol
affiirs was suspected. The young woman
concluded it was just lovely. Tliree days
after there was another elopement, to
which the romantic young woman was
not a party. Her husband gathered up
all her jewelry and what little mooey she
had and went away to find another ro

A Test of Life or Death.
According to the London Medial
Preu, those timid beingß who are
haunted by apprehensions of being bur
ied alivo, and who make testamentary
provisions against such a contingency,
may now take oourage, lor scienoe has ,
supplied an infallible means of deter
mining whither or not the vital spatk 1
has quitted the mortal frame. Electrici
ty enables us to distinguish with abso
lute certainty between life and death, fori .
two or three hours alter the stopage of
the heart, the whole of the muscles of
the body have oompletely lost their
eleotrio excitability. When stimulated
by eleotrieity they no longer contract.
If, then, when ✓Farudism, as the treat- [
meet with induced currents ol electricity
for remedial purposes is called, is applied
to the muscles of tbe limbs and trunk,
say five ur six hours after supposed deatbi
there would be no oontractable response,
it may be certified with oertainty that
death has occurred, for no faint, no r
trance, nor ooma, however deep, can pre
vent the cantractility Here there is no
possibility of mistake, as there certainly
was when tbe old tests were employed.

A* we lay at the wharf I noticed several

but he bad been astride of a camel for
several days and was too tired to accept
my invitation. He is traveling for

Reverse of Fortune
When Robert Stephenson was residing

wearied and waiting for a ship, and while
sitting one day in a large, comfortless ;
! public room of tbe miserable hotel at j

great, therefore, was Robert Siephenson's
surpri-e to find this patent Don Ricardo
in the inn at Cat tag' na, reduced almost j
to his last shilling, and unable to proceed
farther. He had indeed realized tbe i
truth of the Spanish proverb tbst "a
silver mine will bring misery; a gilld

everything in their journey across the
country from Peru They had forded

Look at your Tongue.
A man can never be well and hippy if
the stomaoh is out of order ; and dyspep
I sia, like hysteria, imitates the symptoms
of innumerable disorders. Hut how
i
| the reader may ask, can I tell whether
; the illness 'rom which I think I am suf 1
fering be real or imaginary 1 At any
j rate, I should answer, look tu your
stomach first; and, pray, just takes
glance at your tODgue If ever I was so
far left to myself as to meditate some
rash act, I should before "oiog into the j
| matter, have a look at my tongue 11' it
was not perfectly clear and moist, I should
I not consider myself perfectly healthy, nor
perfectly sane, and would postpone my 1
proct edings, in the hope that my worldly
prospects would get brighter What
does a physician discover by looking at the
tongue? Many things. The tongue
sympathizes with every trifling ailment
of body and mind, and e-pecially with
the state of the stomach. That thin>
whitish layer all over the surface meet
likely indicates indigestion. A patchy
tongue shows that the stomach is very
muoh out of order indeed A yellow
tongue points to biliousness A creamy,
shivering, thick, indented tongue tells of
previous exoesses ; and I do not like my
frieuds to wear such tongues, for I sin
cerely believe that real oumfort cannot be
i secured in this world by any one who
■ does not keep bis feet warm, bis head
cool, and bis tongue clean.

A BEAUTIFUL Idea —"I envy, say*
Sir Humphry, no quality of the mind
or intellect in others—not genius, power,
wit, or fanoy—but if I could choose
what would be most delightful, and I
believe most useful to me, I should pre
fer a firm religious belief to every other
blessing; for it makea life a discipline of
goodness—creates new hopes when all
earthly hopes vanish, and throws over
the decay, tbe destruction of existence
the most gorgeous of all lights ; awakens
life even in death, and from oorruption
and decay calls up beauty and divinity ;
makes an instrument of torture and of
shame the ladder of ascent to paradise ,
and far above all combinations of earth
ly hopes oalls up the most delightful
visions ot paints and amaranths the
gardens of the blessed, the security of
everlasting joya, where the sensualist
and the sceptio view only gloom, deca.,
annihilation, and despair."
