Post, in a recent iS3ue, published the following editorial-, ly: In a remarkably lucid interval the Bridgeport Farmer has permitted itself to give its readers a bit of truth respect ing the South. Listen: "No Southern State's material Interests can be damaged without perceptible, though Indirect, u luryto Northern business Interests. Whenever the consumer's resources are lessened, the produc er must also suffer, and It Is likewise true that an Increase ol the consumer's resources benefits the producer. The South Is the natural market for Northern manufactures. Whatever reduces her resources or prevents their development. Inflicts damage upon Northern Interests." That is even so; but how are the Southern States' material interests dam aged? It is by the illiberal and almost lawless course pursued by that class in the South which assumes to itself a pre scriptive right not only to govern but to regulate the opinions of the inhabi tants of that part of the Union. It is a notorious fact that while the South iiPftHs thfl cauital and energy that have built up the North and West, there are wide districts in that section where a Northern man, no matter now Honor able and industrious, cannot live with any comfort to himself or his family. If he carries with him the ideas and principles of his Northern home he is at once made to feel that he can never become a recognized member of the community where he has made his new home. If he is not visited with actual violence, and forced at last to fly with his family for safety, as hundreds have been, he is tabood from society and ev ery petty annoyance put upon him to make him understand that he is looked upon as an interloper. Some have stood this sort of thing, but there are many who would be glad to go South who do not care to subject their families to such persecution. The advantages are not great enough to make it worth while, when decent communities are accessible elsewhere. Southern men who urge Northerners to come down to their country confess the littleness of their people when they advise emi grants to go in companies so that they may form a little society of their own. But this is not all The hostility to the North and Northerners is carried into Southern courts, and it is found in many cases impossible for Northern merchants to collect their just claims. The case of A. T. Stewart & Co., now before the Supreme Court, is in point. An Alabama man had cheated them out of $3,000 worth of goods, and they caused him to be prosecuted for obtain ing goods under false pretenses. There upon the man brought suit in his home court for defamation of character the defamation consisting of the legal pro ceedings above mentioned and actual ly obtained judgment for $20,000. The complaint of the Farmer is not against the people who make the South so undesirable a place for residence or business, but against the newspapers that expose and condemn these things. They are accused of injuring the North by letting it be known what sort of treatment Northern people receive down there, unless they are doughfaces like the Farmer. The lie, direct and explicit, was given the above by the convention which met here Wednesda. This article was read before the body and from all parts of the house there went up expressions of indignation. Lie!" "Falsehood!" "Not a word of it true !" and similar expres sions found utterance. The members expressed themselves freely, on the floor and privately, concerning this infamous publication, and among all of them it found not one defender. This conven tion, too, bear it in mind, was composed exclusively of this very class which the Hartford Post says cannot live in the South without being subjected either to actual violence or to all manner of pet ty iersecution. Tire lie is thrown into its teeth by the very men for whom it sets itself up to speak. Stick a pin right here. Jl'ST AND TKl'F. The Philadelphia Times,an able news paper, independent in politics, says of the action of the Democratic caucus of the North Carolina Legislature Wed nesday night: "The choice of Governor Z. B. Vance to be United States Senator from North Carolina, as a consequence of his unan imous nomination by the Democratic caucus last night, will greatly strength en the Southern representation in Con gress, and it will not be denied that North Carolina: has chosen her ablest man for the place. Governor Vance ought, in fact, to have been in the Sen ate long ago, but it has been his luck to come within reach of the prize twice and then to fail. Once he was regular ly elected, and kept waiting on the steps of the capital, credentials in hand, until the door was shut in his face by the Republican majority. Again he was on the point of election when some bolting Democrats joined with the Re publicans and gave the place to the present Senator, Merrimon, who, large ly through the exertions of Vance, had been elected Governor in the famous campaign of 1872. Governor Vance is by all odds the most effective popular speaker in the South, and has been idolized for years by the people of the Old North State. Before the outbreak of the war he was widely known as a pronounced Unionist, but took an ac tive part in the secession movement. During the rebellion he was thorough ly enlisted in the Confederate cause, but distinguished himself by fighting against high-handed measures of .the Jefferson Davis administration. He is well equipped for political debate and will be heard from in the Senate." All this is eminently just and- true excepting' the statement that Gov. Vance took an active part in the seces sion movement. He was opposed to it to the very end, and did not yield aught in his opposition until his State seceded ; then he cast in his lot with hers, and labored with his utmost ability to pro mote the success of the movement. John P. Jones, the besmif ched Unit ed States Senator from Nevada, has ' been re-elected by the Legislature of his ,: Stte, overcoming a competitor named Hellhouse, The result could not have been otherwise, even, if Jones had not had the money necessary to buy all the votes he wanted. A man named Hen- n house necessarily goes handicapped into any sort of a contest. ; ntd- , The public has forgotten about the : theft of the body of A. T.Stewart as quickly as it forgot about the man after he ' died. Judge , Hilton, ; howeyer, , is . still prosecuting his search for the bones : with what prospects of success has hot - been divulged.

There are pianos Salem's residences. in two-thirds of Reidsville promises to run an even dozen tobacco factories this year. There is talk of converting the Salis bury fair grounds into a cemetery. There is much emulation among the young men of Greensboro in the mat ter of "being engaged." Judge Kerr lost a little daughter last Sunday from diphtheria. He himself is improving. A jealous negro in Kobeson county lodged a load of buckshot into another, killing him almost instantly. A little girl in Rowan county, daugh ter of a tenant on the farm of Dr. Chunn, was accidentally burned to death last week. A negro went into Dr. Woodruffs room at Reidsville last Sunday night, says the Times, and stole $38 from the drawer. They caught him. The Press says there is too little in terest in and around Salem regarding the Salem & Winston & Mooresville Railroad. Verv little is ever said about it. Statesville American: The Char lotte Observer missed connection with the train last Monday morning, and was much missed by us, and its many readers in this place. A horse attached to a Raleigh drry, as told by the Observer, stepped on a stout stick and broke it The end of the stick flpw ii n and struck one of the horsep. frightening him badly. The horse kick- ! ed violently and broke the leg of the driver. The Greensboro New North State is informed that a farmer residing in the upper part of Guilford county is com pelled to get water every evening from his spring as the rabbits are numerous enough to drink the spring dry dur'ng the night. Greensboro New Nvrth State, 16th: An employe of the North Carolina Railroad, named Rowe, was yesterday killed a short distance this side of Haw river bridge, as we learn by a passenger who arrived here by last night's train. The man was on a hand car, passing on the road, and by some means a part of his clothing caught in the crank of the turning gear of the car, and drew his body to the machinery, causing him to fall off. Greensboro New North State : Wed nesday night of last week, about half past 11 o clock, some one knocked at the back door of the store of Balsley & Son. Young Jacob Balsley, who was there alone, got up and opened the door to admit him, when he was struck on the head with a stick and knocked ! senseless. Fortunately Mr. Balsley saw ' the motion of the man's arm when he struck the blow, and he gave the door a violent push, which closed it and kept the robber from entering. Mr. Balsley lay in a senseless condition for some time and the back of his head is badlv cut. Statesville American: Col. W. T. Clark, sent out from Washington as agent to examine the several revenue offices ih this State, and the manner of conducting the same, makes a very fa vorable report to the aepartment con cerning the office of the sixth district at this place, in charge of Dr. J.

Brown and Colyer have charge of that department. Mr. Davis has charge of the bonded account, referring to which the report says : "The bonded account is kept in superior style." A Cure for Diphiheri?. i'rom the Scientific American. Mr. John S. Wiles, a surgeon of Thorncomb, Dorset, writes to the Lon don Times that, after two cases of ma lignant diphtheria out of some nine or ten he had been called to attend had proved fatal, the mother of a sick child showed him an extract from an Ameri can paper concerning a practioner who used milk of sulphur for infants, and flour of sulphur for older children and adults, brought to a creamy consisten cy with glycerine.

THE I ROCEEDISGS Of THR HOUSES. Houstoris Credentials Commissions on Bales pf Bonds Excus?t from Committee " Service n A " War Claim9 Butler,Corbin and the Indians Before the Committees. Washington," January 17. Senate. Mr. Morgan, of Alabama, presented the credentials of Hon. Geo. 8. Houston, elected United States Senator from Al abama for six years from the 4th of March, 1879, to succeed Hon. George E. Spencer. The credentials were read and placed on file. Mr. Saulsbury submitted a resolution calling upon the Secretary of the Treas ury for intormation as to the amount of commission or other compensation paid bankers, brokers, eta, for their services in negotiating sales of United States bonds or securities from 1862 to the present time ; the amount paid any such persons for services in refunding any bonds of the United States, and whether interest had been paid on call ed bonds sold to redeem such bonds how much double interest had been paid on each class of blonds and how much money allowed to remain on de posit in national banks designated as depositories. Mr. Morrill, of Vermont, suggested that it be referred to the committee on finance. Mr. Saulsbury would not consent to the reference. Mr. Morrill objected to the further consideration to-day, and that the bill be laid on the table. Mr, Allison, from the committee on finance, reported adversely on the Sen ate bill to authorize the killing of fur seal and other fur-bearinganimals with in the limits of Alaska Territory. In definitely postponed. This is the bill introduced by Mr. Cameron, of Wiscon son, on the 24th of January last, and authorizes the Secretary of the Treas ury to declare the Territory of Alaska, except the Islands of St. George and St. Paul, open to the killing of fur bearing animals, persons engaging in such kill ing to pay to the government ten per cent of the appraised value of the skins taken. Messrs. Wallace, of Pennsylvania, and Bayard are excused from further ser vice on the Teller special committee. Messrs. McDonald and Randolph have been appointed to fill the vacancies. In the discussion upon the question of granting the request of Messrs. Wal lace and Bayard, the former said he made the request to be excused because the gentlemen who represented the minority of the Senate on the Teller committee were now about starting North from New Orleans and the oth ers were going to Charleston to continue the investigation. It was impossible for him to go to Charleston and the Senator from Delaware could pot go as he was in Texas. The patent laws bill was again dis cussed. The Senate several times found itself without a quorum. Adjourned till Monday. The House was engaged a considerable portion of to-day on the bill for the pay ment of $20,000 to the trustees of the Protestant Emscorjal seminary and high school in Virginia for rent of the building during the war. Messrs. Con ger, White, of Pennsylvania, and Town- send, or JNew x ork, opposed the bill on the ground of its being a war claim. Messrs, Haskell, Eden, Hunton, Bright, of Tennessee, and Kelly, of Pennsyl vania, favored the measure. Without action the House adjourned. COMMITTEE BUSINESS The Senate committee on privileges and elections met to-day for action on the memorial of" D. T. Corbin who claims the seat now held by Senator Butler, of south Carolina. The Republican mem bers of the committee have a report ravonng txjroms admission, but the minority report in opposition thereto Demg unprepared, action on the whole subject has been postponed until Mon dav. the Senate committee on territories heard arguments this morning as to the advisability of bringing the Indian Terri tory under civil form of eovern- ment: Delegations from the Cherokee nicKasaws ana creefcs were pres ent, all of whom opposed any change in! their present relations with the govern ment, claiming that they had treaty rights which could not be violated by any new oraer.

The ministerial state ment has generally produced an unfa vorable impression. The Journal Des Debats regrets that the government did not employ more animated and cordial language. It says : " In reading; their declaration, one might believe nothing had happened in France for a long time, whereas only a week ago the re public was established." The Republigue Francaise says : "The government must rely only upon the significance of their acts ana the frank ness of their attitude, as the declara tion will be or no assistance to them. The Dix Neuviemc Steele says : "The government spoke for twenty minutes wiuiout pronouncing a single word that they ought to have spoken. The language of the ministry is a new m-o- gramme but a simple exposition of the situation ora report of parliamentary The Figaro savs: "The ministerial statement is a policial testament, which will not prevent the fall of the cabi net." The Constitutional Qoulois and the Soleil praise the government pro gramme. The Rappel, Voltaire, Mar saellaise and Revolution Francaise ve hemently attack the statement and characterize it as the fruit of madness, and other like expressions. The question of the ministerial crisis is discussed everywhere, and the gener al impression prevails that the cabinet can scarcely remain in office after the unravorame reception of their pro gramme m the chambers. The Steele, indeed expresses the opinion that the ministry cannot survive more -than twenty-four hours. In some quarters, it is said, the crisis will ensue imme diately: that MacMahon will summon Garabetta, and in the event of his re fusing, form a cabinet MacMa hon will resign. On the other hand, it is Denevea oy some that it uambetta shall refuse to form the cabinet MacMahon will request M. Dufaure to form a' new ministry. It is pointed out. however. in parliamentary circles, that accord ing to strict parliamentary rules there can be no other president of the coun cil than Gambetta, since he at the pres ent moment practically holds the post. In spite, however, of the language of the Republican journals and the gener- ouj icTauuig iiuvicBBum, mere is a somewhat strong belief in well In formed circles that the ministry will obtain a majority in the chamber of deputies after the debate which begins Monday.
