There is probably more lying done during the month of June than any other month in the year, and most of it is done to the tax lister to avoid the payment of taxes. More men lie deliberately and willingly about their worldly possessions when they come to give in their property than do up..n any other occasion. Men who habitually tell the truth and spurn a lie perjure themselves when they give in their real and personal prop erty for taxation. Men who are prom inent in church and State sometimes leave their honor at home when they go to make their returns. Not a man in Charlotte, we are in formed, returns his household and kitchen 'urniture at more than sd.OtiO. when numbers of them have furni ture in one room valued at much more than this. Sometimes a pair (if thoroughbred horses is put down at -Silt to spit) when they cost adOto SI, I mid. We have heard of cases where parties forgot entirely to re turn bonds to the amount of some I i-HUiiiu or ?2il.tK!;i. It is not an uncommon thing for '; men who hold large blocks of stocks j or large sums of money to transfer : them about the first of June. We j are glad to say that not all of them I do this, but many do. and there is. J more perjury, more lying about what ; one has for taxation than about any ! other one thing. i If a fair return of taxable property i were made, and if a fair valuation i were then put upon it the rate of ! taxation could be reduced fully one- half. We mention this subject be cause we want our readers to think about it and we want to arouse pub lic sentiment so that no man will dare make a false return. Common honesty forbids it. The burdens of taxation should be )orne bv each man according to his ability, but under our system the honest poor man carries a much heavier burden than his rich neigh bor. The only remedy we see is in the hearts and consciences of the peo ple. This is a good subject for a ser mon, and we invoke tiie aid ot tin ministers and all other horn .ens in arousing public sentiment against the iniquity of perjury and deception in returning property for taxation. bife in Ilurliitni County. iMirl.i Sun i A bout four i lives a colored Weaver, aged s north of Durham man, named Penny i.'l .years, and her vAlaugh r.

It becomes us all to be very care ful of our historical assertions. Last summer I delivered an address before the Georgia, Bar Association in which 1 narrated the incident that was said to have turned the scales at our se cession convention in lSlil: and that if llerschel V. Johnson had not taken too much wine at dinner that day his fervid eloquence would have knocked out the props upon which secession leaned and Georgia would not have seceded, and there would have been no war. I further stated that Albert Lamar confessed to have pressed the wine upon Johnson and that in consequence his speech fell liat and without force upon the dele gates. My esteemed friend. Judge Richard ! If. Clark, was one of those delegates ; and writes me the following letter: I "My Dear Friend I perceive you : have fallen into the error promulgat ed by (Jeorge Alfred Town send j (' (lath,") who gave currency to the 'statement that llerschel V. Johnson had made a powerful protest against .secession before dinner and was to ' conclude after dinner, but the friends 1 . . ; of secession pressed him with conviv- i als at the dining and his conclusion was a failure, etc. ITe gave Mr. La mar as his authority. When I read it as published by 'Oath' I knew that . that all of the "amendments will be it was false and that no such event j adopted and the tariff bill passed by occurred.

President Cleveland told a Demo cratic member of the House who asked him his opinion of the Senate amendments to the tariff bill that his opinion on the question of tariff re form should be well enough known without any additional expression at this time, and intimated that he con sidered prompt action on the subject by both House and Senate of far more importance to the country than the mere details of this or that schedule in the bill, provided, of course, that the bill as u whole is kept in line with Democratic prom ises of tariff reform. That strikes me as the proper position for every patriotic Democrat to take at this time. The Republican Senators are act ing on the old legal maxim ':when you have no case abuse the opposi tion." Finding that they were de feated on the sugar, schedule of the tariff bill, which they had been for weeks claiming to be confident of de feating with the aid of Denux ratie votes, they have resorted to the cry of "sugar trust," thinking to blind the country to the fact that the su gar schedule this week adopted by the Democ ratic Senators only gives the sugar refiners about half of what they are getting under the Mclvin ley law. Senator Jones is confident bank currency. They had confident- j out this week bv the Senate commit-! tee that is investigating the charges eoncerning the alleged sugar trust scandal.

Business conditions during the past week have not changed in any impor tant respect, and trade in most de partments has continued quiet. Law less outbreaks which have called for the intervention of troops in several States have increased the business and industrial disturbance conse quent iixm the bituminous coal and coke strikes. Indications point to an early settlement of the coal strike, in which event suspended industries will quickly resume operations. The weather has been unfavorable for the usual seasonable progress in many lines of trade, and drought and low temperature in the West have caused uneasiness with regard to growing crops. A broadening of speculative interest and a sharp advance in prices of grain have resulted from the circulation of less favorable crop reports. There have Im-cii further large ex lorts of gold, and the Treasury gold fund has fallen below 70.0110,000; but the outtlow has occasioned little apprehension, owing to the large amount of idle capital and the pros pect that the Government reserve will shortly be recouped by the in creased customs receipts that will follow the passage of. the Tariff bill. Measured by bank clearings the vol ume of business outside of New York is about a fifth less than it was a year ago, and railroad earnings, so far as they have been reported for Ma-, indicate a decrease of about 20 per cent. The failures during the last week throughout the United States and Canada aggregated 2.")C, against 34!) last year. Cotton has had a variable market, and the price is now about the same as it was a week ago, after having been 3-1(1 of a cent lower in the in terval. There has been a fair sea sonable movement to the ports and for export, although the totals in both directions have been smaller than they were during the corre sponding ioriod last year. Crop conditions, as a rule, are more prom ising than in either of the two pre ceding years: and according to the Financial Chronicle the acreage is larger the planted area this season being estimated at 20,107.247 acres, as against l!l,701,3S3 acres last year. Business in cotton goxls has been limited to the supply of immediate trade wants.

The two "Montana miners" whose sudden and secret departure from Moncure was mentioned in the Record week Ik-fore last, made only a short visit to Rockingham, as will be seen from the following notice of them published in last week's Roekuigham Rocket: "On the 17th inst.. two youthful looking young men, representing themselves as exiK-it miner from Montana and registering at Hotel Richmond as T. R. Daa and 'Palis Hanson, arrived in Rockingham and soon made the acquaintance of our citizens. Not only that, but by their engaging manners and entertaining conversation, had soon ingratiated themselves into the good grat es of several citizens with mining proper ty to develop or ''unload.'' Indeed, we had no idea that Rich mond county contained such ai re sources of hidden wealth until we saw the alleged miners, in "'spiek and span" turnouts being whirled hither and thither to pass upon the value of different "claims." It is needless to say that their opinions invariably conformed to the pre-cou-ceivod notion of the owner, and hence they were soon in high favor with the holders of prosioctively valuable mineral lands. The miners remained lure until Monday, the 21st, on which day they left early in the morning, on foot, with pan and shovel, for a prosjwet ing tour. Presumably they are pros pecting yet, as they have not return ed. The miners forgot (?) to settle their hotel bill here before leaving, but fortunately Mr. Sitterson is still in jHsscSsion of a watch In-longing to one of them." He (o.l KM of a Tenant. Wfldt.li News. George Lewis, a carpenter, had a very undesirable tenant and gave him notice to vacate his house. The tenant being averse to moving psi- tively refused to vacate. Lewis then offered him one dollar in gtnid and lawful money if he would only "get out."' Bufthemau was still obsti nate, and, believing that iossession . was nine-tenths of the law, still re fused to go. Lewis then resorted to a novel way of getting rid of his ten ant. He concluded, like the wolf in the story of the three little pigs, to ''blow the house in," so he ' huffed land he puffed," and he tore the house jdtiwn. leaving the? inhabitant thereof sitting amid the ruins. A ( iirions Halt liii. Pl.it e. The Greeiislioro Record says thai a few Sundays ago a family, entering a pew in a church in Guilford coun ty, were surprised to see a partially built robin's nest on the btok lege: The family at once decided to occu py another seat and to leave the lit tle red-breast unmolested in its strange abode. By the next Sunday the nest was completed and contain ed five eggs, and the next time the family visited the church it was found that the bird had hatched four young robins, and the mother flew in and out during service with food for her young. A (rain of Corn in Her Throat. IioxlHin. CftiriiT. Mr. W. T. Long, of Hurdle's Mill, was in town Friday with his little girl, a beautiful little child about three years old. having her examined by the physicians. On Wrtlnesday night she sucked a grain of corn in her wind pipe, and for thirty-six hours she suffered intensely, but Friday the grain moved - further down which seemed to afford her great relief. While this accident will cause her some trouble, possibly for a few months, we are informed that it is not likely to be serious. "Little ISo I ! had lost her sheep and couldn't tell where to liml them." So the old nursery rhyme says, ami it goes on to hit! lu-r "leave them alone, and they'll come hoiiieainl bring their tails Ix-hind them." All this nriy be true of lt sheep, but if you have hist your health, you cannot kfft.rd to leave that alone. Jt will not come back of its own accord. Some jK'ople brag that they never I xt her about colt Is. They -'let them go the way they came." Alas, too often the victims goto a consumptive's jrrave.
