Thus was the first lilood of the Revolution. It is known in history as the War of the Keprula' tors. Bancroft says of it: The blood of the first rebels against British op pression was first shed among the set tlers oa the branches of the Cape Fear river. mis was May Id. liil. See the results of this. One year Wore the rhiladelphia declaration of independence the Presbyterians of Mecklenburg, X.

The men who issued this Mecklcnbursr Deolara tion were the men on the walls of w hose homes hnng the National Covenant of Scotland, which many of their ancestors bad signed.

'It can be said withont much fear of challenge that Sootch blood flows through every principle in the declaration of independence, "vhich lormsthe foundation of freedom.

Governor and Mrs. Kussell on the evening of April 27 U, at the Executive Mansion gave their first public recep tion. It was in honor of the Capital City Club.

Modern Improvements in Most of the Great Industries. R. G. Dun A Co. 's Weekly Be-iew of Trade, ending April, 80 says: In spile of moderate improvement in most of the great industries, business is disappoint nff. . Expectations of the speedy end of war in Europe, through Turkish vie tory, have helped to depress grain. De mands of Austria andCbinahave caused export of $fl,rx0,000 old merchandise imports are greatly increase I, and final action of Congress on the revenue question seems more remote. The exports of gold would not have much influence if there were not an ex traordinary increase in merchandise im ports and some decrease iu exports, from New York, large for the last week, and five per cent, for April. Imports have increased about 60 per cent over last year for the week, and for four weeks havebeen 30 per entgreater. At Boston imports have been ex traordinary and at Philadelphia they have jt uonnted for the month to $1, 278,000. The thought that this abnor mal increase mar continue as long as action on the revenue bill is deferred tends to aflect exchange, but the main influence at present is the exceptional demand for reconstruction of the Aus trian monetary system and for Japan. Ul the great industries the iron ana steel manufacture is slow in advancing now, as it w as much the quicker in the winter. , Partly because the increase in production in pig was then too rapid, partly because enormous contracts taken when the different pools broke down went mainly to the larger con cerns, and perhaps even more because possibilities of new development re- 1 main, there is great hesitation now in placing orders. Reports of pending negotiations between the Illinois steel and Minnesota iron companies point to an important change as possible, Prices of Mesaba ore have not vet been established, though ore netter than Faval has been sold at S2. 45 to S2.50. and nig is weak er; Bessemer at $9.50, w ith one sale of 2,-twO tons fcrSfl.23 at Pittsburg, and grey forge at 8.5 . Nails are about 5 cents per keg lower and tin plates 5 cents per box, and Eastern quotation are frequently shaded to secure busi ness. A heavy sale of lake copper is reported at 1 1 cents and lead is a trifle weaker. There is more business in cot ton and woolen goods, and a little bet ter tone in prices, some cotton ana some woolen goods having slightly ad vanced without general change, The mills are rather better em ployed, and the demand is apparent ly increasing, though not enough in wool to induce manufacturers to purchase. But imoiU have been enormous, if current reports are not in error, more than 100.000.000 pounds in April alone. Philadelphia having, re ceived over RO00.OOO pounds in four weeks. New York over 24,000,000 and Boston aprareatly over 65,000,000 pounds. Sales for the past four months havebeen 1 ho, 302,650, including 92,943, 400 domestic, and for the wool year 851. 892. J. including 213.852,631 dom estic, but in 18:12-113 sales were 308, 646, 855 pounds. Failures for the week have been 287 iu the Lnited States against M8 last rear, and 40 in Canada against 81 last year. THE SOUTH'S INDUSTRIES. lbe Charlotte Observer's r.aleigh correspondent, under date of April 29, says: "A rumor gained currency this afternoon that Governor Russell is urged by J. C. L.

Under forced draught the new Brit fsh first-olast battleship Jupiter made an average of 18.4 knots in her four hoar trial, nearly a knot more than the contract speed. Microscopical investigation is said to prove that the pores of wood invite the passage of moisture in the direction of the timber's growth, bat repel it ia the opposite direction. Newton oalouUied the velocity of the comet of 1860 to be 880,000 miles an hoar. Brydonne rated the speed of the oomet he saw in 1770 at twa and a half millions of miles an hoar.

Some iron tonios of the pharma copoeia are useless, others are harmful. It has been suggested that the iron should be obtained in an assimilable form from vegetables, and the idea has now been extended by a French chemist, M. Gabriel Viand, who pro poses to fend the vegetables with iron to prepare them specially for vegetables having any required proportion of iron. The red olover, when introduced in to Australia, grew most luxuriantly, and flowered, but produced no seed. The reason for this was the absenoe of bumble bees the bumble bee being the one that does the fertilizing, al most exclusively, in the red olover. Bees were introduced, and the clove; seeded in profusion consequently. Exactly the same was the case with the apple. The Way to Sleep. Agreeing to Terms of Peace. Paris, France, May 1. (By Cable.) Dispatches received here state that M. Rail i, the new Premier of Greece, has intimated. his willingness to have the powers mediate in the contest between Greece and Turkey. It is further stated that Turkey has signified her willing ness to accept a war indemnity guaran teed br: temporary surrender of the Greek fleet All the powers, including Germany and Austria, have agreed that the moment is opportune to intervene between Greece and Turkey. They are now discussing the conditions of such intervention, and appear about to reach an understanding. Where practicable the bed should. be placed on a line north and south. with the head toward the north. This arrangement places the sleeper in harmony with the electrical current? caused by the rotation of the earth fcn its axis. Often a person in sicknsss and sometimes in health can obtain much needed rest in no other way, Bedrooms should, where possible, have a southern exposure, that is, have the windows on the sooth or the sunniest side of the house. The head to the north will keep the lungs and respira tory organs away from any possible draughts, and the room will also ob tain that indispensible requisite to health plenty of sunlight through the day. In many eases it will be impos sible to obtain these conditions in houses where there is very little sun light that can enter the bedrooms, and where windows and doorways make it impossible to place the head of the bed toward the north, bat where there is a cboioe ot rooms those that oner these conditions for comfort and health should be chosen for the bed rooms in common use. Better sleep can be obtained with a low than with a high pillow. To lessen the work of the arteries that propel the blood to every portion of the organism should be the aim ot every one, so that the posture that most nearly places the body ia horizontal position is the most to be desired. Bolstering up the head ia always to be oon detuned, whether in aickneas or in health, nnlesa bodily injuries render the perfectly recumbent position lm possible. It is not well to lie always in the back ; by this practice the spine and the nerves that there congregate are kept too not, and feverish sleep ia apt to be the result The right aide is the best to recline on, for then the heart and the larger arteries are re lieved from undue pressure. Occasion' ally one rests well lying on the stomach. As a general rale eight hoars ia ample for person in health ; more prodnoea a doll, heavy feeling on arising : less, an unsatisfied craving for more.

Regarding the probable effect on cot ton of the overflow of the Mississippi, the New Orleans Times-Democrat says that the estimate of 1,500,000 bales lost on account of the flood is a wild exag geration. Even if the entire Yazoo delta was over-flowed and not a pound of cot ton raised there, the total loss would not exceed a quarter of 'those figures. I mnll acreage la hkelv to have a far better effect on prices than the over flow. From Old Ireland.
