General conclusion and yerdict: ""Basted

The Picayune man, who perhaps knows

A PhUadelphia man has discovered the
way to get rid of flies. . He Bays if you will
circulate a paper asking them tt ' contribute
to the Republican, campaign fund the flies
will immediately leave in disgust.
James Lally, of New York, was young, a
bachelor, rich, had plenty of friends, no
enemies to speak of, didn't drink enough to
make him see things he drowned himself
in the Hudson, proving what a hard man
to satisfy he was.

Lynchburg News,
The Republican Managers Brag High.
Richmond Whig.
When the Republican managers at
Washington send out to their leading
journals specials to the effect, that
from information received from relia
ble sources their prospect of gaining
the next House is most encouraging, it
is done for several purposes. The first
object they have in view is to make the
clerks in the departments and other
officials ante up liberally, and their ul
timate purpose is to inspire confidence
m the ranks of the dispirited Republi
cans of the country. They now say in
these specials that one independent
will be elected in each of the States of
Virginia, North Carolina, Texas and
Mississippi, and that the Republicans
will carry one district in Virginia, two
in North Carolina and two in Tennes
see, and possibly one in Maryland.
They brag high on Louisiana, where
thej expect to gain three or four. But
they admit they will lose heavily in
Ohio, and are silent about their antici
pated gains in JNew York, now that
Lord Roscoe is in arms, breathing
deadly hate against the administration.
They say nothing, however, about Mis-

When asked about Indiana their con
soling : reply is that the ' 'Nationals"
will hurt the Democrats about as much
as they will the Republicans.
Agricultural Campaign in the West.
Commissioner Folk is to make an
agricultural campaign in the western
part of the State, commencing on Au
gust 10th and embracing the counties
of Cherokee, Jlay, Macon, bwain, Jact-
son, Haywood, .turn com do ana Hen
derson. The Raleigh News says "Com
missioner Folk will talk to the people
about internal improvements, of the
necessities for lines of quick communis
cation and rapid transportation. He
will speak to them of the causes which
compel their magnificent fruits to go
to decay in their orchards while the
markets of the world are hungering
and thirsting for their products. He
will show how and why it is that apples
from"Western Carolina cannot be eat
en in Raleigh, while our market is
flooded with the products of New Eng
land orchards. He will show that the
system of North Carolina Railroad
management places the Blue Ridge
further from the capital of the State
than the Rocky Mountains, that Ashe-
ville is further away from Raleigh
than San Francisco, and the Cherokee
country than the. Pacific slope. He
will show that our State legislation is
responsible for these things ; that rail

interests of the people of North Caro
lina, which amounts to prohibition on
business, exists, through the fault of
the Legislature, and he will be glad to
tatkrto members elect about these
things."

An attempt td Organize a National
Workingmen's party in Newbern, last
Wednesday night, was a failure. Too
strongly tinctured with Radicalism.
The Henderson ville Courier, inde
pendent, says that if General Cling
man writes a few more letters, Vance
will become President of the United
States. f
Two other citizens of Buncombe
have come out as independent candi
datesCaptain Marcellus Fagg for the
Senate, and Mr Thomas J Candler for
the House leaving three citizens of
the county yet to be heard from.
Dr Montgomery, of Alamance, is an
independent candidate for the Senate
in Guilford and Alamance. He and
Frank Caldwell are running together
against Messrs Thos M Holt and J I
Scales.
The Concord Sun suggests that the
members of the "National Party" in
Cabarrus hold their conyentions in a
hollow tree near Mill Hill. It will
hold only two men, but is large enough
to accommodate the "Nationals."
The Raleigh Observer says Hugh B
Guthrie, white, . one of the most ob
noxious men in Orange county during
the war and since, and Louis Jenkins,
negro, have declared themselves Rad
ical candidates for the House of Rep
resentatives in that county.
Col John D Taylor, the present clerk
of New Han oyer Superior Court, has
announced himself a candidate for re
election. The Wilmington Review says
he makes the third Republican Rich
mond in the field for this office to the
Democrats' none.
Wilmington Review: We are happy to
announce that our friends in Sampson
are healing the differences that at one
time threatened to split the Democrat
ic vote of that noble old county, and
that now all opposition to the regular
nominee for the Senate, Captain N H
Fennell, has been withdrawn.
The candidates -in Cabarrus are
speaking at a vigorous rate. Dr Rich
ard Anderson, of Stanley, and Mr J M
Redwine are the candidates for the
Senate, the latter being independent.
Mr Odell, the Democratic nominee for
the House, has an opponent in the
person of Captain W H Orchard, who
is the nominee of the National party.
The following notice appears in the
Concord Sun : Judge Fowle, Hon W
M Robbins, Col Bennett and other
prominent gentlemen, will address our
people in Concord on Tuesday, the

the day. Preparations will be made
for a large crowd, and everybody, irre
spective of party, is (cordially invited
to attend. A grand treat is in store.

Delicious Cookery.
Light, white, wholesome biscuits, rolls,
bread, and elegant cake, crullers, waffles,
doughnuts,, muffins, and griddle cakes of
every find, are always possible to every ta

Good Digestion.
"Give us this day our daily bread" and
good medicine to digest it, is both reverent
and human. The human stomach and liv
er are fruitful sources of life's comforts; or
disordered and diseased, they tingle misery
along every nerve and through every artery.
The man or woman with good digestion see
beauty as they walk, and overcome obsta
cles they meet in the routine of life, where
the dyspeptic sees only gloom and stumbles
and erowls at even imaginary objects. The
world still needs two or three new kinds of
medicine before death can be perfectly
abolished ; hut that many lives have been
prolonged, and many sufferers from Liver
disease, Dyspepsia and Headache, have been
cured by Merrell's Hepatine, is no longer a
doubt. It curea Headache in twenty min
utes, and there is no question but what it is
the most wonderful oiscoyery yet made in
medical science. Those afflicted with bil
iousness and Liver Complaint should use
MerreU B Hepatine. . .
It can be had at Dr J H Mc Aden's, Wilson
& Burwell's and Dr T G Smith's.

the remedial means and appliances for the cure of
all those chronic diseases peculiar to females. The
employment, in moderation, of tonic, chemical,

relieve congested parts, improve digestion, and
strengthen the niuscfes, produce Important beneficial
results In all cases to -which these means are applies
ble. No experimenting is resorted to in the treat
ment. The most approved medicines are carefully
employed, and the Judicious regulation of the diet,
to suit the condition of the patieift, the thorough ven
tilation of the Bleeping apartment, the cheering in
fluence of music, social Intercourse, Innocent games
for amusement, and all those agencies which tend to
