Philadelphia 7Smt, Major Sutherlin furnished the Confed erate President and tits Cabinet home during the few shsrt hoars that the capital of the fading government was at Danville. The last time Mr. Davis' entire Cabinet was together wasarouod his tabid. It was the day they left for Charlotte. During the summer the mtion of the final dis solution of the Confederacy was canvassed and the prospects of getting out of the country Were freely discussed. It was agreed that in case the worst enme an ef fort should be made to reach the sea coast and there secure a vessel to take Mr. Paris and his Cabinet to some foreign port. The question of the ready means to pay for this service was also considered, and each Cabinet officer began to take an account of stock to see how tomh gold or silrer he could command. Mr. Brejkenridge had something like $500 in gold, Mr. Keagan had jomcthing like the same amount, aud every one had greater or smaller amounts. Mr,. Davis looked on in silenco at their in vestigations and wai the last to speak. When the question was asked what his condition was he said: 'Gentlemen, I have not a penny but Confederate money and only the amount of my last mouth's salary, which I drew the day before Gen. Leo's lines were bro ken." Of course all were ready to divide with him, but when the dinner party Was over Major Sutherlin's wife, who had laid . by an amount of specie, took thousand dol lars in gold and handed it to her husband with directions to give it to Mr. Davis af ter he had left the house. But when they reached the railroad and Major Sutherlin pressed the money upon the C nfederate chief, he returned it with a great show of feeling, saying: Nck I will trt take if 8mt6.hwg may nappen in which yott will need it worse thn I, but this evidence of devotion on the part of your wife touches me'deeply. God bless the woman of the Confederacy. CLf FERHISSOS TE51PBEACE WHAT HE HAS TO SAT O ITS EtFIOT OS THE FINANCIAL CONDITION 6 TH I'EoPLK, WITHOUT CON3IDEU1NQ ITS MORAL UTECT. "Britonx," ssid President Cotton- spend annually 140,000,000, or $700,000,000, in drink, an average of $18 for each .En glishman." Germany has 11,800 breweries which turn out $48,000,000 gallon of beer. America spends $900,000,000 annually for rum and tobacco. The money wasted in drink in England, Germsrsy, and Amer ica would buy three nation?. This awful burden compels twiee the amount of labor in the world. This drink burden makes twothirdsof our sickness and three fourths of our crime. Yes, but you don't hare to bear this burden if you don't drink', says the f'runk ard. Yon are wroDp, tny friends; I pid $425 taxes on tny New York houe last year. What was this tax for 7 It was to govern a city where three fourths of the arrests were made on account of drunken ness. I can govern myself, but I have to pay $425 a year to be protected from the criminal classes made criminal tnrougn rum. I was lecturing out in Kansas last ci pring where they hare prohibition. An intemperate man came to me one day and said: Yes, Mr. Perkins, this prohibition will bring luin to tha State. It will, will it? Yes, it will impoverish us and destroy our business houses. New lot's soe about this my friend, I said. Xct's examine this a little. If a Kansas farmer brings a thousand bushels oTocrn into Topekahe ge'e how much for ft? Four hundred dollars answered my friend. NoW if they take this thousand bashsls of corn over to Perioa, how much whiskey will it make ? Four thousands gallons. And this whiskey is worth how much ? Oh, after thay'have paid four thou sand dollars revenue tax on it to the other thirty-six States, itwiil be worth $4,600. And if this whiskey should comeback to Kansas you would havo to pay about $4,600 for it? Yes moore too. We'd have to pay about $5,000 for it. Would it be Worth anything to your citizens? No; I suppose it Tould cause a good deal of idleness and crinie. It would hurt as. I never did think whiskey a positive benefit. Well how much would it hurt you ? I asked. Oh, I can't tell. I Well, I'll tell you, I said. It will hurt you directly about five thousand dollars worth. You would sell the corn from which whiskey is made for 8400, and then buy back this whiskey for $5,000. You would be directly out of pocket just $4, 600. And indireutly, it would cost Kansas, in idleness and crime caused by the four thousand gallons of whiskey abont $20, 000. It would take 16,000 men a day a piece to drink it up, if they drank a quart a day each. The loss of 16,000 days' la bor to Kansas would be $20,000, wouldn't it? Why I declare, exclaincd my friend I never heard it put in that way. I Fee it all plainly now. I'll never say anything about prohibition damaging Kansas again. Yes, I said, if Kansas can save $26,000 on every thousand bushels of corn by let ting it go over to Peoria, the more she is damaged that way the richer she will be come till finally Illinois, utterly impover ished, will have to call on Kansas to lend her money to build poor houses. But there is one thing in Kansas, I said, that will be ruined by prohibition. What is that asked my friend. Ifhy, her poor-house. Your peor houses and jail will, become empty. Thiak of a poor-house with not a soul in it but the poor master I Think of a jail without a convict poor bankrupt jail and poor-house Eli Perkins.

Totho farmer's wife there eotzies no time for vacation unless she takes it and is willing to "let things go" while she is way. Lucky the a ife whose husband is of the .same mind, and they can start off together wTth the team; taking as outing ia true farmer fashion. Doa't take any burden along; leave them at home, and you will find them greatly lightened when yon re turn. Get all the rest yen cm in visiting other homes whose duties are like your own, an4 greater perhaps, with th added care of babies and the younger children. Nothing lightens our own burdeb more than giving a cheerful , word to - others whose lot is harder tta our own. It is astonishing how eaaily we cad see the sil' very lining to our neighbt rs- clould, and give them a glimpse of it also if we try, when our own deads seem so dense and despairing. Friends, don't look forever at your clouds, but try to see the lining of sil ver each U sure to have; or, better sull on ly the sunshine above them that is posi tively there, whether we sec it or not, Don't let ur home duties overwhelm us; keep out of the ruts, and life will run smooth again. Make onr burdens as liht as possible by co unnecessary labors, and carry them bravely along. Don't drag them after you. A cheerful spirit aud a song makes labor light and easy. Toil is a blessing, if not excessive and many of us are in fault if it is excessive. But few women really know hew te lighter their labor; they do many things the hard est way, and never know it. It cooking is a profession, surely housekeeping ought to be also, and how fjw woseen are really naturally adapted to tho business. What wonder is it, then, that they toil at it un til their health gives way and their lives become burdens. I call to mind two friends, the one a natural housekeeper. Every part of the home ia order and eosy, every cast-off garment of the family utilised and even bought, a certain color, for cut ting np into rugs when old. Nothing is wasted; every season has its datise even to the days of the week, and the home mother is never hurried by her work; she 1 times her work. The other one is a housekeep er, simply because of beins; a wife and a mother net for the love of it. While seemingly not hurried, she is always catch ing np jrith duties belonging to weeks age. Her work drives her instead of she driving the work. Both are farmers' wives. I pitty one while I envy the other. Dur Ridge Farm, Lot Goto, P. O. Joiin Sherman' Bid for tlie Of flees. N. r. World. CeiXMBYS, Feb. 1 6. The Payne In vest iga ting Committee was in secret session all? day. The fact that certain points of the testimony has heretofore leaked out, nota bly that of I H Kahle, who testified that he had been offered $5,000 by ex-Scnator Rainy to support Mr. Payne, has led the committee and witnesses to observe the strictest secrecy, and nothing could be ob. taincd as to the tener of the testimony taken to-day further than that much of it was highly interesting. The Columbus Dispatch, Republican, and long recognized as Senator Sherman's personal organ, pub lishes the letter printed in the World this morning and says editorially that it admits of but one construction. "A bid for- the offices as the price of Mr. Jones' confirm a mation." and unreservedly vindicates the VforwB correspondent. The Ditpatch editorial creates a seusation among, Mr. Sherman's friends.

The Henderson Gold Leaf is responsi ble for the following on Judgo Clark: "Judge Clark, on his way to Oxford court, was conveyed from this .lace through the country, in a light hack driven by colored man. The driver drew the Jndge into convcrsation,ain whith the latter got off a good thing, so we are informed. The driver, not knowing the Judge inquired "Is you a drummer?" "Someweat in that line," replied his Honor. "What is your line?" persisted the colo red individual. "Druming for the Bute penitentiary." was the reply. Mid pleasures and palaces though we may roam, be it ever so humble, there's no specific for pain like Salvation Oil. Price 25 cents a bottle. Tbe Judge Rather Gets the Doctors. (Arkangaw Traveller.') Several years ago, while the people of west TertMCSsee were alarmed at the ap proach of yellow fever, Judge F. convened court at Bolivar. Court had been but a few days in session when the reports from Memphis caused additional excitement. There were many witnesses attendant upon court, and very naturally, they im portuned the Judge to permit them to go home. The business part of the commun ity, willing to run any risk for the sake of trade, declared that the ' scare was unne cessary, and that the disease was not yellow fever. . A number of physician?, with, it appears, more learning than judgment, re paired to the court-room and assured the Judge that no danger of as epidemie was to be apprehended. "The disease," said one of the medical gentlemen, "is not yellow fever, but is aipTJVorastoTy." "You are wrowg doctor," said another physician, "for investigation proves it to posnrentiscai t." "No," said another doctor, "yon are both wrong. I admit that it is not yel low fever, and that it can never become an epidemic, but it is nothing more or less than an exaggerated type of cosf inetor di?jt." Then there arose a heaUd discussion in which the Judge was unable to take part. He waited patiently until the discussion cooled down, then, turning to the ofScers, said: "I have been much entertained by the discussion which yon gentlemen have so ably conducted, I do not pretend to say what the disease is, for I am not versed in such sciences. It may be acute jehos siphat, exaggerated pollywog, inflamma tory jim crow, or a mild type of e pluri bus unuro, but there's one thing I do know It's d d kitchin', and I'm going to adjourn this court." gave His JLIfo. Mr. D. I. Wilcoxson, of Torse Cave. Ky., says he was, for many years, badly afflicted with Phthisic, also Diabetes; the pains Were almost unendurable and vould sometimes almost throw him iato convul sions. He tried Electric Bitters and got relief frcm first bottle aad after taking six bottler, was entirely cured and had gained in flesh eighteen pounds. Says he posi tively believes he wuld have died, had it not been for the relief afforded by Electric Bitters. Sold at fifty cents a bottle by T. R. Hood & Co. Unjust Claims of Mr. J. T. Pat ricks We published last week a list of persons "J. T. Patrick, State Immigration Agent claims to have brought into the State." The New Berne Journal says that the gentlemen who bought the Gray farm at thai place did not come through Mr. Pat rick's influence, and that they did not in vest $61,000, as claimed by Mr. Patrick. $21, 000 only. The Journal says it has come to regard the Immigration Bureau as one of the useless appendages of the de partment Mr. Patrick ought to explain. We published the fiat as furnished by Mr. Patrick and dil not vouch foy it State Chronicle. We have no malice towards Mr. J. T. Patrick. Immigration Agent, but we be lieve that he for the past .few years has spent thousand of dollars which has done but very little good to the State of North Carolina. Among the first names he mm tion in his list of immigrants in the Chron icle which he induced to come to North Carolina are F. A. Vallmer, Wfllian Vall roer, and E. Gottshall. We called upon Mr. F. A. Vallmer to-day and asked him if this statement of Mr. Patrick's was true. He replied "No, more than ten ycrrs ago I decided to move to North Carolina, but owing to my financial condi tion I did not get ready until 1882, when I decided to move to Guilford county, but Mr. Patrick persuaded me to go to Anson county. In company with my son. Will Vallemer and my cousin Gottshall, we moved to Anson and Mr. Patrick put us ia charge of a regular "cut threat" who cheated us out of oar years' work." We were also shown a letter to day from a man by the name of Printer, who was induced to come to this State by Mr. Pat rick. In Blinker's letter, he states that he is working to get money enough to sue Mr. Patrick for his services while work ing his famous Moore county farm. We give this for what it is worth. R. P. Lennox was also persuaded to move to North Carolina. lie located on J. T. Patrick's Moore county farm. H. R. Blessing, by the earnest solicitation of State Agent J. T. Patrick, came to North Carolina an 1 located oa J. T. Patrick's Moore counfy farm. What a glorious thing it is to be fur nished with three thousmd dollars a year to rpnd the summer and fall viting fairs and expositions, and while there pick np" a tenant for 'our farm ia Moore county." We do not think Moore county is fa mous as aa agricultural mous as an agricultural county no boyhood days, we often heard, people say mat me -principal crop in 3 J core county was peas and thrt the land wa sj poor you could hear the peas grunt for miles, trying to sprout!" Since then there has been seme inprovemnf, and Moore is destined to be a fine tobacco, producing county. Mr. Whiteman was induced to move to Durham county by his friend Mr. F. A. Vallmer and not not by Mr. Patrick, and so was IT. Murray, Smith and Jenfcin. We have given these facta as they have been told us; if they are not true we will gladly give Mr. Patrick an opportunity to prove to the contrary. We hope for Mr. Patrick's sake they are not true.

Why Seme Boys Leare. "Why do the boys leave' th farm?'' wails awriter in an'agriculiural paper. Well, dear brother, there are several rea sons. Gne is because the boy is not sixy- five years old at his birth. Then, if there is a hoe on the farm weighing fourteen ounces, bright as nickle and sharp as razor, and another weighing somewhat less than a breaking plough, with an edge on ic like a hammer and a sappling with the bark on it for a handle, the hired man takes one and the boy gets the other, and every man in America knows which is the other. Did you ever stand with such a hoe in your hands away down in a corn row, on some airless, still, hot summer day twenty acres of corn blades and tassels wilt ing about you, standing fourteen inches higher than your head, shutting out every last trace of breathable f ir, and then hear a locust down the edge of the timber strike up his long, strident, monotonous - call to make it ten times hotter? And all this time a cool creek, cot a mile away, loiter ing in deep, silent pools in shady places in the woods, or breaking into merry dancing ripples over the pebbles? And in the big deep holes the fih just lying around, 'oir Sonne for a boy? Well, then, you know why some boys leave the farm. Still, boys ean be kept on the farm and made to stay there all their live. You drive a long spike through a bey's abdomen and through a live oak tree, and clinch or bolt it on either side, snd then saw off the boy's legs and break his back, and he will stay on the farm. Yes, there are some ether ways, we know, but this is the only infallible method. BurJettr. Goldaboro Synagogue. Metxenger. Our Hebrew friends, that is the youn ger portion, the other night resorted to a rather novel but effective way of raising money for their projected Synagogue fund. A gay party were enjoying themselvt s at the charming residence of Mr. Sol. Weil, when a suggestion that they proceed to auction off the young visiting ladies pros ent to the highest bidder was warmly se conded by the young men. Mr. Sam Spier a as chosen for auctioneer, and the bidding was quite spirited. When the entire lot of yonng ladies had been disposed of the Synagogue fund found itself enriched to the amount of $210. The hignst price paid was $35. Miss Florence Rider, of St. Louis, was the favorite one. J91 Irncalons Escape. W W Reed, druggist, of Winchester, Ind., writes: "One of my customers, Mrs. Louiso Pike, Bartonia, Randolph Co.,Ind., was a long sufferer with Consumption, and was given np to die by her physicians. She heard of Dr King's New Discovery for Consumption, and began buying it of me. In six months' time she walked to this city, a distance of six miles, and is now so much improved she has quit using it. She feels she owes her life to it.
