THE CABARRUS NATIONAL CANDIDATE.
Re-Considers His Withdrawal and is Again
a Candidate for the Home.
Editor Charlotte Observer
Be kind enough to publish the fol
lowing: Capt Wm H Orchard was
nominated by the National party in
this (Cabarrus) county, some two
weeks ago. He withdrew after a week
or so from the canvass. Butyesterdy he
published a card, in which he Btates
that his withdrawal was caused by mis
information ; and he is again in the
field, and pledges himself to the sup
port of the principles and platform of
the National party. X.

A MISSOURI SCANDAL.
The State Treasurer Charged With a $500,000
Swindle,
St Loyis, July 24. Quite a sensation
is created by the publication of a long
article reflecting seriously upon the
management of the State Treasury. It
is charged that tne treasurer, junan
Gates, never complied with the laws
relating to the filing of his bond, and
that the bond has never been approv
ed, as required by law, and upon
leeal test would be declared invalid.
One of the most significant faots pub
lished is the statement that five days
before the National Bank of Missouri
suspended,' about a year ago, it re-
Rtatft Treasurer. The president of
the bank, J H Bntton, is one of the
treasurer's bondsmen. The money
was forwarded on June 15th to the
State National Bank for the ostensible
purpose of being sent to the 5anK ot
Commerce of New York, to meet
the July interest on the Missouri
bonds; payable in New York J,uly 14,th.
The money, instead of being promptly
forwarded, remained in tne panic nve
days, at the end of which time the
bank suspenaea paymem, ve ssuve
being in this manner victimised to the
extent of $500,000.
How They Older These Things in France Paris
in Midsummer,
From the London Standard.
If we wish to escape sunstroke, even
in its mitigated form of languor, lassi
tude and drowsiness, we must keep our
selves co si; and to do this as it ought
to be done we must take precautions
against the heat before it bursts upon
us. Those who wish to know how this
can best be effected have only to pay a
short visit to Paris during the sultriest
weeks of August.1 As soon as the weath
er demands a change a Frenchman ap
parels himself in low shoes and trous
ers of duck or nankeen; his shirt col
lar expands ; his neck tie dwindles -to
an apology; waistcoat he altogether
discards : his coat is of thin alpaca or
the lightest Tussore silk; his hat of
white felt or of straw; nor is he
ashamed to boldly carry an umbrella.
His house, especially if it be on the
sunny side of the street, is regulated
with equal care and forethought. The
carpets are taken up ; the heavy ja
lousies are shut before sunrise and kept
closed throughout the day ; the court
yard is hourly watered, and in house
holds where small expenses are of little
moment a large bowl of ice and water
or a pyramid of solid ice surrounded
by flowers forms the centre ornament
of the table. What the indiyidual cit
izen does for himself that the munici
pality of Paris does for the entire city.
Lione before tne irarisians are astir the
streets have been well watered with a
hose and the trottoir thoroughly wash
ed down. Along the boulevards and
in most of the principal avenues large
trees gratefully cool the atmosphere
and suggest a pleasant sort of lotus
eating dream of wood and field. Each
thoroughfare has its shady side, and
instead of the repulsive London "pub
lie," one comes at every few hundred
yards across some little cafe, with its
awniner drawn over the pavement and
with chairs and marble tables, where
the thirsty soul .who demands of the
earcon even a cup of cold water and
tenders for it his three half-pence will
receive a courteous welcome.
The Spurs of the Liberaton
Gov Hampton, of South Carolina,
has been sent by a Newport admirer,
Mr W W Woolsey, a splendid pair of
silver spurs, with the lollowmg note :
"These spurs were made by the Boga-
tano silversmiths after Bolivar struck
the shackles from their limbs and made
them free. They may well be worn by
one who has made equal rights before
the law a blessing and a reality to so
many thousand freedmen."

A Good Country
augnsta Chronicle, 27th.
Mr J H Alexander has returned from
his trip to the mountains of North Car
olina and gives a glowing account of
the salubrious climate ot that country.
He says he saw a youth sixteen years
of age who had never seen a dead per
son nor a funeral and the inference
therefore is that no one has died in
that section since he was born.' and

North Carolina Politics.
Washington Post, 6th.l
General Thomas L Clingman, of
North Carolina, for eighteen years a
member of Congress, before the war,
and who left, the Senate in 1861 to
stake b.is fortunes with the Southern
Confederacy, said to-day during an m
terview: "1 see that m the worth, a
movement somewhat similar to one in
the South, is growingrapidly. Working
masses are cutting loose by degrees
from the Republican and Democratic
narties and trying to form an organiza
lion separate and independent. Now
in my State there are 120,000 indepen
dent voters. They don't altogether be
lieve in extreme measures. They've
had enough of war, and are sick of de
magogism. The Republican party as a
party is almost dead in North Caro
lina, but it is probable that the inde
pendent party will take its place. The
colored vote will be divided, ut there
are thousands of white voters, who
have, heretofore, been Democrats, or
voted the Democratic ticket, who are
tired of the contention and strife
which has usually existed between the
parties, and who have lost faith in the
political integrity of both existing par
ties, and who will gladly join a new
and independent organization. I
should not be at all surprised to see a
man of independent views elected as
Merrimon's successor in the Senate in
the coming fall. Gov Vance's and
Senator Merrimon's friends are making
a bitter fight against each other. It
bodes no good for the Democracy.
Southern people are tired of strife and
disorder. When they begin to quarrel
among themselves they make a! mis
take that might prove fatal to their
cause afterwards. J; am speaking of
the Democratic cause, of course. : There
js an independent party growing
in my State, and I believe all over the
South,"
