THE DAILY V/ORKMAN. J, S. JIIiliAUX, local Editor A v^^per for all people, bnt especially to meet the desire which many are ^now'll to entertain f^ir a non-political ^tieet, the Wokkman will strive to go nto Vvery house, leaving to other papers the sc cnce ot politics, giving the news in brief ar.ti liolding itself responsible to the moral sense of the community for Its ntterarices. —Capt. Green’s circular to the officials of the R. & D. Railroad Company requires that no employees shall be accepted as a rule, unless they be 21 years of age, and stand 5 feet 6 inces high. — It would be curious could we know the reason of the fact stated in one of our exchanges, that there was not a single car coupler invented in North Carolina last week. Can anybody give the reason for an oc currence so unusual? — Judge Bond, of the United States Circuit court Inis opened the 8})ecial tax bond cases at Raleigh. The ques tions at issue are quite intricate, and but few ordinary mortals will under take to study th^m out. The lawyers are now in demand and are, indispen- sible. —At an election for members of the town council at South Boston, Va., on Tuesday last, the issue being “Wet or Dry,’' the latter carried the day by a very handsome majority. The hindermost candidate among the “Wets” received 31 votes, while the hindermost of the “Drys” 145* 41 was the highest on the “Wet”tick- et, and 174 on the “Dry.” ■—C. H. T. Deuring, an ex police man and now a private detective of Richmond, is in prison under a charge of attempting to bribe Joel, the jew eler of watch key fame, to swear false ly in the appeal of Cluverius before Goyernor Tee. Joel pocketed the money and carried it to the Goyernor with his complaint against Deuring, and the latter was arrested for con- spiracv to impede the administration of justice. Bail was refused him. For the Datly Woukjian. Prof. William A. Blair, a graduate of Hiiverlord College, and Harvard University, and at one time lecturer on pedagogics in S wathmore College, and who has been a successful worker in the Normal Schools of N. C., and thoroughly identified with and an advocate of higher education in our country, is to deliver an address for the benefit of the “Claytonian Litera ry Society” on the subject of “Self Culture and Success,”at New Garden, N. C., on the evening of the 17th of Dec, i586, at 8 o’clock. The pub lic invited. Tnos. J. Stanley, Pres. Rev. W. W. Royall, for six years a missionary of the M.

Crawford, at 3:30, p. m. J. A. CUNNINGGIM. “Dont stand on the order of going” but go straight to the next corner and buy a bottle of Dr. Bull’s Cough Syrup, if you want to do your cold. I The Cluverius Matter Still ON Docket.—We make no apology to the readier tor adverting so fre quently to the very interesting case of Cluverius, the murderer of the poor, almost friendless, wronged and de serted Fannie Lillian Madison, for if we have seemed to bear down on him, it has been in consequence of the horrible nature of his crime and the clearness of the pioof against him, together with the brutish indifference with which he has borne himself all through the .trial. Some few of our exchanges have seemed to question his guilt according to law and evi dence: this is their business, wliile we have considered it our business to have an independent opinion of the law and the testimony as it appeared to us. Within the past few days some interesting points have come to the surface. Governor Lee gave patient attention to the appeal made in behalf of the prisoner, and after his investigation declared solemnly that he saw no reason either to extend pardon or commutation, but granted a reprieve until January 14th. The Richmond Dispatch of yesterday gives the substance of conversations with the Governor and others on the subject of the watch key, which counsel for the prisoner refused to allow to be opened in court. Police Justice Richardson was not at liberty to disclose, he said, whether the key had been opened before the Governor, as suspected. In answer to the same question the Governor said—“I can’t tell you anything about it to-day.’’ Mr. Meredith was^ilent about the key. When Joel, who was claimed to have mended a key for Cluverius, was asked if it had been opened, he answered, “You will have to ask the j Governor.” It seems that the Gov-' ernor has the key, and the analysis j of the various answers makes it almost; sure that Joel opened the key before the Governor and fully identified it as the one he mended for the prisoner. The fact is, there could have been no reason for the Governor to have the key unless for the purpose of having it opened, and his refusal to interfere with the course of the law in the case is pretty strong proof that the kev was the identical ©ne that Joel had mended. So lar the Dispatch. The Danville Registerol yesterday, containing the press dispatches, an nounces that the key was opened by Joel in the presence of the Governor and fully identified as the key fixed by Joel for Cluverius, and further, that the interior of the key tallied ex actly with the description which Joel had previously given of it. We were in no doubt that Governor Lee would discharge his full duty m this matter, and he did it by having Joel describe the inside of the key before it was opened, that then the key when opened would be its own witness. This should allay all doubt about the ownership of the key, even with those who could not see it plain enough in the refusal of prisoner’s counsel to allow the key to be opened on the trial. But there is another incident: Some one writing anonymously from New York, through the Superintend ent of that city declares that Cluveri us is the wrong man, -and that the anonymous correspondent hirnself is the murderer, and will come forth on the day of execution ready to be tried for the murder. Qiiite probably il the fellow could be caught a little hanging would do him good, but his writing anonymously shows his aversion to the rope. He is pro nounced a crank.

They shut the bngl%l.look away From bis mother^s yearning eye. A pitiless iron door^ Builded a wall of dispair Between the two hearts so sore, Between gray aniTgolden hair. It would not be hard to say “Thy will. O, Father be done!” Had I laid my boy away In a bed by the grasses spun, I could make it bright with flowers And the Sunbeam’s light would pli.y Where the kisses of soft showers Caressed each quivering spray. But alas! for living death, Alas for the prison grave! Alas for the wasted breath Of him I would aie to save! The feet I had held and kissed, Have run the swift ways of sin. Ah, Lord wherein have I missed That he should not enter in.” ADVANTAGES OF Farmers and Horsemen should read this!—I find Salvation Oil a most ex cellent liniment among horses, and I take pleasure in endorsing it as a cer tain remedy for-scratches. James Thomas, Franklin Road, near Baltimore. The Charlotte Observer of this morning says * In view of the talk now going on about Mr. James W. Reid, we will mention that his name is printed in the Washington Star as one of the recent arrivals in that citv. Local Optioi^in Alabama.—The followiug news is important: The House of Representatives of the General Assembly, in session Decumber 8thj at Montgomery, Ala., passed a bill making the re tail liquor license $250, which is equivalent to more than doubling it. The proposition to make it $500 was voted' down by a small majority. The Assembly baa pass ed prohibition^ bills outright for two of the lar^st black counties upoD>petitiodiiifejigm i^eaily all of , the white inhabitants. Xjocal hibition bills 'are passed almost without objection from any mem ber. The Senate has passed a gen eral local-option low for all of the counties. Japanese Volcanoes.—Japan is considered by Professor Milne to have at least 100 uudoubted vol canoes, of which about 48 are still active, or have been so during the historical period. About 232 erup tions have been recorded. The in tensity of volcanic action seems to have been as g~eat as in any part of the world. A period of unus ual activity was between 1780 and 1800, during which time part of Mount Unseen was.blown up with a loss of from 27,000 to 53,000 lives, many islands were formed in that Satsumi 8ea,Sakurajima threw out so much pumice that it was possible to walk a distance of 23 miles upon the floating debris in the sea, and Asama ejected many blocks of stone—one of them 42 feet in diameter—and a lava stream 40 miles in length- The eruptions have exerted a powerful influence on the minds of the people, causing divine interference to speciall> sought, while mountain-deity wor ship continues not uncommon.
