About five-hundred survivors of the '
Philadelphia Biigndc tlut bore a con-,
spieuous part in the third day's fight at
Gettysburg assembled on the '2nd inst
where the first camp fire of the Blue and !
Gray, upon the historic grounds of Get-!

they extended to the survivors of Pick

as a warm one.

It is one thing to boom a tcrrti and
jerect a large number of buildings chief-;
ly dwellings, but the question always!
prosents itsi If to our mind, what is to;
give the occupants of the numerous buil-;
dings employment, of how are they to
live ? This is a matter of paramount
importance, and one in which oil wise
projectors should feel deeply interested,
and always endeavor to induue t ! in- j

There is no denying the growth of the
sentiment among politicians that the la- j
tor party and prohibition will prove
powerful disturbing elements indeed id
the Presidential campaign of 1888 It
is reported that justice Field, of the U,
S. Supreme Court Bench, and a Demo
crat, has said :
"There is one element which may dis
concert all calculations. I mean the
labor party. Should this party organ
ize as thoroughly as it did in the New
York mayoralty fight, ore year ago, no
one could predict the results and both
Democrats and Republicans would be
woefully disorganized. I give this not
as my individual opinion alone, *at as
the cryst.ilized idea of all public men in
Washington."
Whether these parties will nominate
tickets of their own, or whether each will 1
Select either the Pemncrat or Republi
can party with which to cooperate can
not be predicted. Should these parties 1
however afliiliatc themselves with either!
.one of the existing parties they would
prove a factor that might preponderate
over any other issue that may come up
>n the campaign of 1888.
fION. GEORGE DAVIS.
'fbe Washington correspondent of the
fitatesville Landmark, and the Fayette,
trille Observer suggest the name of Mr.
George Davis, who was attorney gener
al of the Coufederaoy, for the appoint
ment to the place on the Supreme Court
Bench made vacant by the doath of Jus
tice Woods. We copy from the Otaerv
tr:
"If thcic ba nny one from North Car
olina that could get the appointment of
Supreme Court Judge, not one oould
fill it more acceptably than the gentle
man named above. Ho has nevor been
a seeker after ofiicc, and there is none
whom the people would tnoro delight to
honor, lie is a lawyer of great ability,
broad views-a deep thinker, one that
would do honor to the placo. Wo have
not thought it likely that the position
would fall to North Carolina, but if
there be any hope let ir. effort be made.'

A DECISION IN REGARD TO '
NORTH CAROLINA BONDS.
The Stato of North Carolina has till'
j uow declined to tax its people to pay (
| iotcrest on SIO,OOO of bonds issued in |
! 18')9 by the first Legislature chosen
! under the Constitution framed by the
Convention wli eh Gen. Canty assembled 1
in Raleigh, February 14, 1868. The
I decision of Judge Bond, just i, ado at
t Raleigh, holds that tho ageuts of the j
| State must collect taxes to the amount
1 of one-eight of 1 percent, of all prop-,
j orty in the Stato to meet Uie interest on
he bunds in question, as required bv
the law authorizing their issue. It has
] >een held hitherto that the State, under'
the Fed 'ral Constitution, could not be
'sued bj ci'.zens of other State. This
j difficulty bus been evaded by Morion,
I Bliss k Co., of New York, by getting
i x citizen of North Carolina to bring suit
;in their interest. It is now in oruci to
; acuipel the State to levy a tax. Wl.at;

| Statesville Landmark : Mr. Duncaii j
|E. Mclver, of Sanford, Moore county, j
writes to the Carthage Blade that lie 1
1 ' has written to Statesville for statistics |
!of the dried blackberry business of the"!
town ami learni that in 1 BSS 750,000
j lbs. were handled hore, in 1886, when
j the crop was short, 500,000, and that
it is expected that a million lbs. will be
handled here this year. Ho takes the
crop of 1885 as an average and shows
that at 6c. per lb. it was worth $1,200,
, which was just so uiucli saved from act
■ j ual loss. The orop grows without culli
. vation, is gathered and dried by the
women and and is just so much
! given by Providence to tho people with
\ out any exertion on their part. The
blackberry crop, like the root aud herb
' business, is a source of great revenue
-j to western North Carolina. It supplies
. many families with comforts which they
I otherwise would not liavo ; it brightens
}up bu* invss and brings money into the
Stato, for all of it is shipped North and
West The people ought, particularly
' J this hard year, to gather and dry for
' market all the berries tbo briars yield,
1 and dry all ihe peaches, apples and otb
: er fruits that grow, that arc not neoded
' i for family uso.
