The American irl has learned to feel that in Edward W. liok she has a strong chamiion. lut Mr. liok, although he is ever ready to advocate her cause, is not blind to her faults. He confesses that she has one glaring one at least, and of this he writes as follows in the April Ladies' Home Journal: "If one wishes to be candid, and real ly cristicise the American girl, not for a score of fancied faultr which are not hers, but for a fault which is peculiarly hers, it is that she fritters away a deal of time on things, nml does not . givel'" Carolina; llicrc aru also several many enough time to any one thing, One advantage which this fault has is that she can overcome it. And she should. She should learn the art of application. Whatever she starts out to do let her do it Well. It she wants to play let her learn to play, not indifferently, but welbj If her taste is for china-painting let ner concentrate her mind to that, and learn to paint well. If she is fond of needlework let her train herfelf to be an expert of the needle. It her tendencies lead her to languages let her take up that tongue the sttuly of which attracts her most. But it she takes up French let her content herself with French, and not study French one dav and German the next. Nor ghould she forget that to know the English language well is her first duty."

I -Ex. For the Courier IMXI1JJ3 IIOOK. The first settlers in Lincoln and the adjoining counties crossed the Catawba about the year lToO; memories of them as well as many valuable papers s til i linger among their decendants. I have in un hands a little book which will doubtless interest many of your readers. This was the property ot John liamsour. The Ramsours of this section trace their descent from Died rick liamsour. . The family came; from Germany to Switzerland; thence to Pennsyl vania ; and, then, to this State. Diedrick was sometimes called Derrick but commonly '"Teeter.' He came here about 1750 and set tled two miles south of where Lin colnton now- stands. I have been unable to obtain any information relative to John liamsour except this little book, but believe him to have" been a kinsman of Diedricks, probably a son. If a son he per haps never left Pennsylvania, or died young; each of the sons of Derrick.Jacob and David, named one of their sons John; at the time John visited this section lTai Jacob A: David were about L'O years of age; and there is a tradition that Died rick left one of his sons in Phila delphia, who never came south to live; he was hired there to finish paying for their passage; the read er will later see a reference to a letter lie received from his lather items however, of a later date and by a (lifVerent hand, in regard to the estate of David liamsour; I al so quote a reference to his being in this very section in 1752 when he visited ''henry witner"'. These are some of the facts from which the inference is drawn that he was the son of Diedrick. It is hoped however this article will come un der the observation of some one who can clearly indicate who this John liamsour was. The book is bound in buck-skin, contains 45 pages, and is at least 142 years old. On the fly-leaf is written : "John Ramsower his mamber rantom book August 27 day 1752 ; to his gorney went. "John travel t from home to the Tuch Copers S days "Cot to gorneys ent to Anry Jamberts tis 0 any of October 1752. On the back of it among faded items this entry is clearly legible: 'Born August ' 1720." In this book is kept a diary of o::. iis-s of two trips irom Penn sylvania to Carolina and return. He seems to have been a Dutch man who kept 1m record in Eng-jthe lish and spelled the words just as (hey sounded to him. I will now give a portion of the items; as 1 think it will add to the interest will copy them verbatim et letera- tim. Will first iiive one of his! trips to Carolina and return.

Is railroading a bill through at t'ie bidding of foreign boards of trade, stealing from the farmers the credit they had. the premised relief ? Is a legislature that cost the people .$7,000 more than the form er legislature any relief ! Is an increase of four cents tax es on .$100 worth of property any ivlbd? Is the voting of 125,000 more out of the State treasury tlian was appropriated two years ago, relief? Is the change from State to county adoption, probably neces sitating the buying of new books tor the public schools in nearly 0VPr-' c0l,nt-v in tho S,ate' an' Vii' hef? Is the increase of offices for party heelers any relief? Tf so our Populist friends doubt less have all the relief they want. If a ten line enactment, unwise and unwarranted, which blocks trade, revolutioniz?s business, dis turbs all our commercial relations and destroys credit is relief, then Dutler, ami his fellow-office seek ers have redeemed their pledges Butler got relief, great relief He got six years in the Senate, at. 5,00:) a year.

StU by A. S Lea DrucnistLncolnton N C. Silver the Inane. The new party for 1890 is now ooming in for its share of com ment. It is to be the silver party. The money question is of supremo importance, and affects tho pros perity of the country more largely than any other question, but to subordinate all other questions to one issue is absurd, and a party cannot go into power on that a lone. Silverites are determined on some substantial silver legislation, ami they cut a big figure, for thero is hardly any doubt but that tho people d' t'is country as a wholo largely favor bimetalisni indeed the entinent has gained ground quit? rapidly in the past few months, and is growing every day. The leaders of both the Democratic and Republican party are waking to the fact that the silver question is of vital importance, and that the masses of the people will not be satisfied with anything short of some measure that will reinstate silver to her former position. In deed, we believe that it was tilt) ! biggest mistake the Democrats made in tie ro'tMi' term of Con grers when they faded to jjivo the U' - nntry som incisure aloio' this in . .Mugwump Cleveland wes large ly responsible f))r their lailure to ena:.t something favorable to sil vi r i!"t a i toe-ether but lamely so j and tie blame -demld rest oh him ho should have been a light but was a stumbling block. As a D inocrat, we regret his selection by the parly as a fatal mistake We thought so at the time, and we have never had reason to alttr our opinion. If we had had a sound Demociat in place of that hibred duck hunter, the party would not be in its preen shape. However Democracy has too much in it for it to relliain in the background. It is thejtrue party of the people and is yet the channel through which t ie people should fiht for their vie.vty. Thy t lection of our next standard bearer is of the suprem est importance. I'pon that selec tion will depend largely tho strength that the new party will develop. The National Democrat it platform in SJo mmt declare for silver in no ambiguous terma and the standard bearer rnii9t be a man whom the people have faith in that the platform iillbe carried out. With such a policy and such a leader we are bound to win. The Democrats of the South and VeSt must not be longer hoodwinked and worked by the scheming Pol j itician3 (,f the North.
