' WHERE TO 60 FOR THE SUMMER. yesterday gave us aTgenuine taste of summer," and those who are in the habit of spending their summers away from home were brought face to face with the Question, whither shall we flee ? ; In point of fact there is little necessity for the people of . Charlotte, to go anywhere during the heated term. Our city is thoroughly healthy and if the summer . season cannot be spent herein perfect comfort, it can at least be spent in en tire safety. But a great many people lhink, and with some cause, that they heed an occasional change of air, and that ladies and children whd can afford to do so should seek cooler breezes dur ing the hot months, is well and proper. Where what they want can be found is a question not difficult to answer. They need not go beyond the mountains, the watering places or the seashore of our own State. If they are -in delicate health, mineral springs abound in pur own State in almost endless variety ; if ihev wish to find a more salubrious climate, and feel themselves indepen dent of mineral waters, they cannot go amiss for it in the mountains of North Carolina r if they want the refreshing sea-breezes, with the pastimes which a seaside resort affords, they need not go further than Beaufort. We have noted with much satisfuc tion the tendency on the part of our people to gather at their own summer resorts. The "fashion" which has in the past carried them to the Virginia springs and to the resorts of the North, is gradually losing its strength with them, and they have adopted the sensi ble idea, while descanting upon the charms of The Switzerland of Ameri ca," of enforcing their precept by their example. For years we have all been holding out to strangers the delights of a summer in North Carolina, and it argues better for our consistency that we are beginning to illustrate our faith by our works. A higher degree of State pride is a thing in which we have long stood in need and this is a species of that quality. Last year our mountains were filled with people from the lower sections of our own State, and this sea son promises to increase their populari ty. This is well. Here health is to be found and the means of amusement are after all, in people themselves, wherev er they are gathered, independent, to a great extent, of artificial appliances. Let us continue to patrpnize our own mountains, and springes and seaside re sorts, and it will not be many summers before we will be able to find there all those facilities for enjoyment which some claim are found of superior quali ty elsewhere, Beer Drinking by States. Beer is rapidly taking the place of whiskey, in this country, as a beverage, but thus far North Carolina ranks low. Some man greatly given to figures has recent ly published a table founded on infor mation obtained in the internal reve nue bureau, in which it appears that there are consumed "on an average by every man, woman and child" in the States mentioned these numbers of glassesaf malt liquors annually : New York and New Jersey, 248 glasses each ; California. 165: Pennsylvania, New Hampshire and Nevada, 99 each ; Mary land and Massachusetts, 55 each; Mis souri, 71 ; Michigan and Nebraska, 55; Iowa and District of Columbia, 50; Washington Territory and Idaho, 45 ; Connecticut and Wyoming Territory, 41: Indiana and Utah, 38 each; Ore gon, 35; Louisiana, . 33 ; Rhode Island, j9; West Virginia, 16; Delaware, 15; Arizona, 14; Dakota, 7; Texas, 4; Ten nessee, Virginia and Maine, 3 each; Georgia and Florida, 2 ; South Carolina, Alabama. Arkansas, Mississippi and North Carolina, 1 each. "Great Disappointment." News paper correspondents writing from Chapel. Hul represent that there was . great disappointment in consequence of the failure of Senator Thurman to keep his engagement to delivfer the literary address. This is surprising. Great men are so much in the habit of playing these little jokes upon North Carolina colleges that it would seem that by this time the people should have gotten ac customed to it Those who have for the past month had any idea that Judge Thurman would fill his engagement at the University have manifested a sweet simplicity which it would be base flat tery to call verdancy. ' .'. . Corrupt Legislators. Pennsylva nia was humiliated in finding out that her Legislature had become very cor- rapt. She is . again humiliated by the i" discovery that her Legislature is too i Vorrugt; to expel a member whose cor- rnption has been proved.; The suppor- - tera of the Pittsburg riot bill bribery were too numerous to permit tne ex . pulsion of Representative Petroff, of . Philadelphia, .notwithstanding that he had been proved.. ta. have attempted to . bribe two legislators. The vote stood 98 to 88.

CALHODS'S DISQUISITION OS GOTEMMEST. Headers of The Observer have guessed that the .series of : articles on political ethics, now . running tnrougn our columns, were from, the pen of Col. P. Thomas, superintendent ofthe Carolina Military Institute, of this city, who has chosen to thus condense and simplify Calhoun's Disquisition on Gov ernment. These articles are, what their caption indicates: a "manual' of this celebrated wort; and are prepared ; by Col. Thomas with the ultimate idea of their being introduced in colleges and, academies, in which Calhoun's Disqui sition on Government has long been re garded as a standard political text book. As to the manner and purpose of the work in kwhich he is engaged. Col. Thomas writes thus to the editor of the Charleston News and Courier : I have analyzed the work of Calhoun, and made it convenient in form and much easier ot comprehension than it appears in the present edition. I have not adhered closely to the text, but have embellished and illustrated the severe argument of Calhoun. - Sly purpose is to bring forward Cal houn's Science of Government, which involves no question of sectionalism, and which is for all ages and every country. Nor do I propose to agitate questions which prudence considers ill timed and out of place. Iam seeking, as Mr. Calhoun sought, the truth politi cal, and this is what the country needs in matters of otate. As for mvself, 1 have abandoned my Confederate dream, and am willing to work for a grand country made upoi North. East, South and west jjuc i ao want this country to De a unu or states and not a unit of individuals, to the end that it may endure and show to the world that, under a proper scheme of government, it is possible for territorial grandeur to De iouna not inconsistent with the preservation of liberty. The Case of Senator ingalls. Pomeroy was bad enough but it seems that the case of Ingalls of Kansas is even worse. Twenty-seven members of the Legislature of his State have pre ferred charges of bribery against him. Incralls reDlied in the third person. A rejoinder by Messrs. Stumbaugh & Eg- - A It T 1 1 A gers, memDers or tne legislature, nas been filed and is now before the Senate oommittee on privileges and elections. We quote a sentence from their reply. They say : In Mr. Incralls' case we state in the most positive manner the names of the parties bribed, by whom, and the amounts received, ano mat n an op portunity is given we will produce the proofs of the same. They show that certain statements made in Ingalls' reply are not true, and that a majority of the members of the committee appointed by the Legisla ture to investigate Ingalls were Radi cals of the "most strictest sect." They say: The charges that we have presented are specific, and are either true or un true. If true, Mr. Ingalls is unworthy to sit an hour in the Senate chamber; if untrue, they are susceptible of dis- prool. Let the investigation proceed. Mistaken AnorT It. The Albany (N. Y.) Press says: The Charlotte (X. C.) Observer nominates Thomas A. Hendricks for President, and Sanford E. Church for vice. A good many people will say this is "putting the cart before the horse." Pardon us ; but there is some mis take about this. The Observer is not in the nominating business and has not nominated anybody. It will, however, support Hendricks and Church, Church and Hendricks, 'or anybody-to-beat-Grant or John Sherman just whoever the Democratic convention next year says are the men to win. Senator Hampton is not a brilliant man, but he is a man of practical ideas and with plenty of what we are in the habit of somewhat vulgarly denominat ing "horse sense." This quality was very fully illustrated in those parts of his speech in the Senate . Thursday which related to the duty of the Demo cratic party with reference to the ap propriation bills. The better sense of the country fully endorses Senator Hampton's position on this question. John Sherman says the Ohio Demo crats have nominated a strong ticket, the strongest that they could have put up, Sherman's preference for Ewing is explained by the fact that they are brothers-in-law and the closest of friends. The Sew French Atlantie Cable. London, June 6 The Times says the steamer Faraday will leave for Mill wall, on the Lower Thames, on Monday next, and commence loading the new French cable on Tuesday, and will sail in aoout a week after. The shore ends and the Brest and Sciily con nection will be laid first. The Faraday will then return to the Thames for the deep sea cable, whlch4s being manufac tured as rapidly as possible. The route for this cable will be by way of Brest. the Island of St, Pierre, off the south coast of Newfoundland., and Cape Cod. It is expected that the line will be open for business before antumn. Great Strike Among Tlmbermen In Swedes London, June 6. The strike amonor the workmen in the timber trade, which began at Sundswall, Sweden, at the end of May, has now, according to telegrams received atr Lloyd's, extended to all the leading ports tf the Ixnlerhamden dis trict, on the Gulf of Bothnia. Some ten thousand men :were idle at last ac counts. The government is taking pre cautionary measures againstacts of violence by the strikers. ; The Louisiana Convention.

THE GLADIATORS. -T iriio: WEANGLED j TESTERDAT AKD v - WHIT ABOUT. ; ; ' The Bandana Waves to'Some Purpose The Bayard f Juror Bill Passed . Short House Session,..d-e, .-. Washington, June 6. Senate. Coke asked Bayard, the chairman of the finance committee, what action had been taken on tUe Warner silver bill. He had understood, the committee -had aerreed to postpone its consideration un til December. -Bayard did not feel au thorized to say what had taken place in committee. He would only say no member had been instructed to report on the bill. Coke- then said his sense of duty led him to off er a resolution to discharge the committee from the further consideration of the bill, And to declare the bill before the Senate for action. Edmunds, Whyte and others ob jected, and the resolution went over, Edmunds resumed his remarks on I the bill to repeal sections 801, 820 and 821 of the Revised Statutes. Alluding to Bayard's citation yester day, of the opinion recently rendered by Justice Field, in the United States Su preme Court that "these laws are as in valid and unconstitutional as would be a law quartering a Federal : soldier in every Southern man's house," Edmunds said this opinion was that of Justice Field alone and not of the court, and he did not consider it good law. He then read a law of Maryland to show that there was discrimination in that State against colored men in the forma tion of juries, but was corrected by Whyte. He then proceeded to point out what he thought the absurdity of introducing politics into the jury sys tem, and said it would end in recogniz ing all other mental differences in the selection of jurors. Thurman said Edmunds seemed to be generating another veto message, fur nishing sophestries for people not sharp enough to invent them for themselves, in order that they may come back here in a sort of shuttiecock and battledoore from the other end of the avenue. Laughter. He said Edmunds seemed afraid to leave the qualifications of jurors with the States, but section 800 of the Revised Statutes, left them there and that section was upheld by the Re- mblicans, at least until 1875, when a aw was passed prohibiting discrimina tion on account of race, color. &c. If that law prevented discrimination un der the Maryland State law, then it would prevent it now in spite of this bill Whyte then explained the jury law of Maryland and a colloquy took place be tween Whyte and .Edmunds as to tne working of that law, Blaine having understood Thurman to say that the President might veto the present bill asked how he knew it? Thurman replied he did not know it but in his opinion the bills had been vetoed because the Republican mem bers or Congress had, he would not say bulldozed, but coerced the executive into vetoing them. Edmunds raised the point of order that Thurman was out of order in charging Senators with coercion of the President. Thurman said he did not mean physi cal coercion or violence, but that the President had been induced by the course of the Republican Congressmen to veto bills he would not otherwise have vetoed. In the discussion that followed the Democratic Senators quoted a case where Republican members had de nounced Andrew Johnson as a despot, &c, and the decision of Blaine when the latter was Speaker of the House, holding that a member was not out of order in using accusatory words of the President. Edmunds then withdrew the point of order. The vote was then taken on the mo tion to recommit and the motion was lost. The bill was then passed yeas 28, nays 16 a strict party vote, Adjourned to Monday. House. The proceedings were gen erally unimportant. THE WARNER BILL GOES OVER, The Senate committee on finance held a special meeting to-day for the purpose of deciding whether the Warner silver Dili snouid De taken up ior ac tion during the present session. The motion pending at adjournment of last meeting was one submitted by Voor hees, that the committee proceed to the consideration of this measure. Morrill to-day moved to amend this motion bv adding "and for the purpose of having time for the purpose of its full consid eration, further action thereon shall be postponed until the first Monday in December next." This amendment was adonted bv the f ollowincr vote : aves Bayard, Kernan, Ferry, Allison ; noes J5ecK, voorhees, and Jones, of Nevada. Morrill was paired with Wallace. The latter, if present, would have voted no. The motion as thus amended was then adopted by the same vote, and the whole subject laid aside accordingly. SPOFFORD AND KELLOGG AGAIN. The Senate committee on privileges and elections resumed the Soofford- Kellogg investigation, Judge Merrick, counsel for Sponord, offered in evidence the affidavit of Joseph J.Johnson, whieh was read yesterday, the purpose being to impeach the credibility of Johnson's oral denial of the truth of its contents. also to lay a foundation for proof which AierricK said he would hereafter ; ad duce to show that Johnson, since mak ing the anidavit, has been subjected to influences contemplating intimidation. Aiier a long discussion between coun sel m regard to admitting the affidavit it was decided that counsel should sub mit to tne oommittee-the legal author- itles on which they relied, and the sub ject was let t tor decision hereafter. APPROPRIATION COMMITTEEWORK, ine House committee on aoDroDria tions, to-day, authorized Representative Clymer, of Pennsylvania, to report for pnnting and recommittal the army ap propriation bill agreed upon by the joint Democratic- caucus, with unimportant changes. The third bill to be introduced, iiniueiy ; me uiu making provisions ior the judicial expenses of the government was discussed to-day but not finished. and will be taken up again to-morrow. The sub-committee on appropriations to-day made "a report recommending the payment of $28,000 to the owners of the steamer Cheenv, which was seized and destroyed on the Mississippi river during the war. .

Two capital cases will be tried at the approaching term of Buncombe Supe rior Court: David Bur well, for killing A. Garron in Asheville last year, a new trial having been granted him by the Supreme Court ; and J. T Meadows and Mrs. Carter, from Madison county, for killing a child, this latter case having been moved from Madison. Asheville Citizen: The new opera house in this place was opened to the public for the hrst time in its " new clothes," on Tuesday evening, the Thorne Comedy Company performing on the occasion tne spienaid nve act drama of "Fanchon." The scenery. which was for the first time exhibited to the public, is decidedly handsome. It was painted entire by the members of the comedy company. Salem Press: it is reported that it is highly probably that arrangements will be made to. utilize the road bed on the North Western North Carolina Rail road, (known as the Greensboro & Sa lem road), for the benefit of the. Mount Airy Railroad, and that the Mount Airy Koad win maxe connection at Winston. We hope this report may turn out true. On the other hand there are interests at work m opposition to this movement. : TELEGRAPHIC MARKET REPORTS JUNE 6, 1879 PRODUCE.
