It is said that Cameron, Jones and

The fourteenth annual fair of the

A decision of the Supreme Court of
New York city affirms the right of a
wife to bring suit against her husband
for assault aud battery. Chief Justice
Davis was ungallant enough to dissent.
The Greenville, S. C, News states
that the postmasters are receiving cir
culars from the Assistant Postmaster
General, demanding a small contribu
tion to aid in the defeat of "The Bour
bon Democracy of South Carolina."
The argument in the first of the cases
tried in South Carolina, the past week
for violating the Federal election laws
closed Friday afternoon, and Judge
Bond immediately charged the jury,
but up to 1 o'clock Friday night the ju
ry had not agreed.
Mr. M. H. De Young, editor of the
San Francisco Chronicle, the leading
Republican paper on the Pacific coast,
says the veto of the Chinese bill will
result in sending solid Democratic del

California, Oregon, Nevada, Colorado
and Washington Territory.
John McClintock, of Cohoes, N. Y., is
an earnest sympathizer with the perse
cuted Russian Jews. He declares that
he is himself "a Jew who has received
the promise, an American by adoption,
an Irishman by birth, and a Christian
by education." He is evidently all
sorts of a fellow.
Judge Loomis, of the County Court,
has refused to consider the petition of
Mrs.Scoville for the appointment of a
conservator for Guiteau, holding that
he has no jurisdiction, the matter prop
erly belonging in the Probate Court. A
summons for Guiteau, issued by the
clerk of the court, was quashed.
Mr. John F. Slater, a wealthy citizen
of Norwich, Connecticut, has devoted
81,000,000 as a fund to be used in the
education of the colored people south, a
board of trustees has been appointed,
of which ex-President Hayes i3 named
as first President. Gov. Colquit, of
Georgia, and Rev. Jas. P. Boyce, of
Kentucky are among the members of
the board.
The United Stated Senate refused to
confirm Mr. W. E. Chandler as United
States Solicitor when appointed by
Garfield, but confirms his appointment
as Secretary of the navy, The infer
ence is that the United States Senate is
a very changeable body, or that Mr.
Chandler has improved, or that it re
quires less character to be a Secretary
of the navy than a United States Solicitor.
SOMEWHAT EMBARRASSED.
The Republican party managers are
somewhat embarrassed about this time.
There are several causes ' for this em
barrassment. The breach between the
half-breeds and stalwarts is a wide one,
and seems to be growing wider instead
of narrower. Arthur has no such vig
orous denouncers in the Democratic
ranks as are found among the half
breed organs, some of which uniformly
speak of him as his "accidency" or the
Guiteau 'President," &c, and let no effort
pass to drive their shafts at him, The
stalwarts on the other hand instead of
seeming to desire to conciliate the half
breeds, go right along apparently indif
ferent to the fact of their existence, and
Mr. Arthur with his little hatchet lops
off the heads of those he finds in office
and fills their places with men of his
own following. The last of the Garfield
cabinet, save Lincoln, has walked the
plank, and he would go but for the fact
that he is of the same kidney with the
306 gang. The half-breeds who look
to Blaine, of Maine, and incidentally of
Peru where guano vegetates see nothing
to gain except by abject submission, or
open fight. It seems they prefer the
latter, in which there will be more fun
if not more profit.
Then comes the pestiferous Chinese
question with the trouble-breeding veto
to harrow up their souls, and fright
them with the prospective loss of the
Pacific States. They are trying to get
around this trouble now by patching up
some sort of a bill that will meet the
Presidential objection, choke off the
heathen Chinee, and allay the bubbling
indignation of the Pacific coasters.
They will probably patch up somethjjig
but they can't fix up'a job that will en
tirely undo the harm that the veto has
done. These States are so close that it
is more than likely that a sufficient
number of people have been driven
from the Republican party to make
them Democratic, unless some step be
taken by the Democratic managers to
drive them back again.
Next we bmve the defections from the
party in some of the Western States
where the Republicans have no strength
to spare, in consequence of the dissatis
faction among the German voters on
account of the temperance legislation
of the Republican legislatures. In Ohio
and Indiana especially is there much
tribulation of spirit on this score, and
in Iowa also although there is a very
large Republican majority in that
State. Under ordinary circumstances
they might weather through this alarm
ing state of affairs, but with this tide
against them and the unpleasantness
existing between the Blaine and Ar
thur people it would look as if the Demo
crats had the inside track and would
sweep the staked.
Then there is the tariff question
which is a thorn in their sides, and on
which they are very much at sea, the
protective features of which while they
are vigorously supported by Represen
tatives in Congress from the Atlantic
States are far from being popular with
the States in the interior. The agita
tation of this question has gone so far
that positive action on it has become a
necessity, and the majority in Congress
will be looked to for such action as will
meet the demands of the case. The
Democrats so far have pursued a very
careful course in the discussion of the
question, and such as seems to meet
with popular approbation outside of
the districts which desire a high tariff,
not with a view to revenue but to pro
tection only.
Take it all in all the Republican man
agers are in a quandary and don't know
exactly how to trim their sails for the
seas over which they have to travel.
They hope to help their cause some
what by accessions from the South, but
from all present indications this is a
forlorn hope, and they find not much
aid and comfort in the South up to the
present writing. If with all the disad
vantages the Republican party is now
laboring under, it can overcome them
and win a victory three years hence the
effort to kill it may as well be abandoned.

Washington, April 15. An infor

al committee was held this morning in
the rooms of the Senate committee on
rules. Hon; Marshall Jewell, chairman,
presided, and George W. Hooker, of
Vermont, assistant secretary, and Hons.
John C. New, of Indiana, Wm. P. Frye,
of Maine, Chauncey J. Filley, of Mis
souri, Wm. Yost, of Virginia, W. W.
Hicks, of Florida, J. B. Deveraux, of
Georgia, J. A. Martin, of Kansas, Paul
Stroback, of Alabama, W. P. Cannaday,
of North Carolina, and Samuel Lee, of
South Carolina, were present.
The subject of party interests in the
Southern States was fully discussed and
the members expressed themselves
earnestly in favor of a union of the Re
publicans of the Southern States, With
such liberal elements in these States as
promise progress in the direction of a
liberal national sentiment and broader
political ideas that will insure a free
ballot and an honesi count, that in na
tional affairs will antagonize the prin
ciples and policy of the Bourbon Dem
ocracy. Hon. Wm. P. Frye offered the follow
ing resolution which was unanimously
adopted :
Resolved, That there be a meeting of
the Republican National committee at
Washington, the fourth Wednesday of
January, 1883, to consider and take final
action on the report of the committee,
aoDointed March 5th. 1881. to mature
and report to the national committee a
plan for securing to the several con
gressional districts the right to elect
their own delegates to the next nation
al convention, and to transact any other
business that may be brought before
them.
The meeting then adjourned sine die,

About the Introduction of the Baptist
Church in America- Who ia Entitled
to the Honor!
T the Editor of The Olfeemr.
1 was interested in the article in Fri
day's Daily Observes, headed "The
Introduction of the Baptist Denomina
tion into America,'' but allow me to say
that while the Dodge family were
among the pioneer Baptist families of
America, they were not the first in
point of time. This article places the
arrival of Tristram Dodge in this coun
try in 1661, the title is therefore a mis
nomer, because Cotton Mather in his
Magnalia, book iii, p. 243, .refers to the
preaching of Hanserd Knollys, at Dover,
and Mr. Miles, at S wansley, in the spring
of 1638. In March, 1639. the famous
Roger Williams church, of Providence,
and thirteen companies can run on it.
AMERICAN SUSPECTS.
The case of the American suspects in
Irish jails has now been so prominently
brought before the attention of the gov
ernment by the resolutions in the
House and Senate that it can no longer
be trifled with. The administration has
been trifling with it shamefully, and
Minister Lowell has been disgracefully
truckling to British sentiment; not
British sentiment, either an
' I utuuu c&O
tist churches that have descended from
that. In 1644 the second BaDtist church
in Rhode Island was formed by Dr.
John Clark and eleven others, who
came from England. As early as No
vember 13, 1644, an act was passed by
the Assembly of Massachusetts for the
banishment of Baptists, because they
had "increased and spread in Massa
chusetts." In 1651 a Baptist named
Witter was whipped in Lynn, and there
were other- Baptists in the neighbor
hood belonging to the church at New
port. July 3lst of same year, Rev.
Obadiah Holmes, a Baptist minister

is of that vigorous order that ordinary
provocation would not inspire. The
fact is this whole subject has been
treated in a way which reflects no
credit upon this country. Those im
prisoned suspects are either guilty or
not guilty. If there be any charge
against them,that charge should be filed
and the men should be tried. If guilty,
they should be punished: if innocent,
they should not be held in prison.
While it is not desired nor claimed that
this government should throw itself
between its citizens and the law when
they violate the law, it is desired and
expected that it protect its citizens
abroad, and that they be not thrown
into prison at the command of an arbi
trary power when innocent of .offense;
that justice be done them, and that they
lie not helpless and answerless in for
eign dungeons.
1 simply srive these dots from hirrv
because the inference to be drawn from
the article in Friday's paper is that the
date of the "introduction of the Baptist
denomination into America" was 1661,
whereas they had been preaching and
suffering for conscience sake in this
country for at least 23 eventful years
before that date, viz, since 1638.
I thought these facts might be equally
interesting to those who read the pre
vious article. Respectfully,
O. F. Gregory,
. Pastor Baptist Church.

The Cid Gold, Silver and Copper Mine.
In the spring of 1881 Mr. S. T. Maffly,
of -Fhuaaeiphia, ra., patented an ex
ceedingly ingenious machine for ex
tracting the ferriferous particles, con
tained in all auriferous material, and
amalgamating the precious metal. Ob
taining permission of Capt. F. N. Stith,
he set up his machine in August on the
"Ward-Bonanza" in Davidson county,
quickly demonstrating its practical val
ue.
Having had several years' experience
the mining regions of the Rocky Moun
tains, he prospected thoroughly the
"Ward," discovering that the schist (im
mediately underlaying the surface
earth, which paid well to wash) con
tained more gold than the earth itself,
and asserted that there was still a sub
stratum of water-worn pebbles, which
not unf requently in the West yielded
thousands of dollars per ton. This de
posit has not yet been seen, as the own
er is busily engaged in sinking a shaft
to develop the mammoth veins of gold,
silver and copper, but as all the other
declarations of Mr. M. have been veri
tied by actual work, it may be reasona
bly inferred that in this instance he is
also correct, and that the water-worn
pebbles of the Ward will yet yield im
mensely.
This portion of Davidson county is
gently undulating, with considerable
Hat land. Beginning at the Ward there
is an immense stretch of rich, heavily
timbered bottom lands, and extending
past the Cid gold, silver and copper
mine, many miles until its waters
(whose fountain head are tne numer
ous cool and beautiful springs of the
Ward) are polluted by being incorporat
ed with the dark slimy waters of the
"Great Flat Swamp." From numerous
tests, Mr. Muffly is satisfied that all the
bottom land of the V ard are rich in
coarse goid.
The Ward not being for sale or lease,
Mr. Muffly set out in quest of property
in its vicinity, and bringing to bear his
well-trained powers of observation, his
untiring energy was rewarded by the
discovery of what he has christened the
"Cid" mine.
The Cid having no ontcrop or surface
indications, Mr. jsiuray s rule and guide
for discovery is as much a mystery to
the native miners as are the hieroglyph
ics on "Cleopatra s .Needle.
At first glance is seen a little ravine
through wnich gurgles a brook, that is
dissipated by "old Sol's" rays in the
early summer days. Next gently slo
Diner hill sides, covered with what is
called red slate, and land so poor (from
the proximity of metals) that even the
Scotch thistle or hardy mullen will not
vegetate. On the edge of the ravine is
the discovery shaft of the "Cid," the
first two (2) feet of which shows a mix
ture of red clay and slate, immediately
beneath which for a width of about five
(5) feet is a compact vein of dark green
coated ores, hemmed in below by a
granitic formation, whose every old,
water-worn seam is filled with beauti
ful green-copper carbonates. On the
upper side by a blend of slate and gun
flint, interspersed with many little
veins of quartzose, sparkling with gale
na, rich in silver, and all tending to
ward the great mother vein. At six
(6) feet in depth the vein is a great body
of black oxide of copper, with gold,
silver and lead, said to be worth over
$100 per ton. the water from the
shaft is jet black, impressing one with
an idea of a great well of ink.
At the depth of twelve (12) feet the
ores have increased in saver, and a
great quantity which the inexperienced
would think was shining heaps of gold,
are now piled on - platforms in lumps
ranging in weight from one ounce to
five or six hundred pounds. The bot
tom of the shaft, not deep enough to be
out of sun light shows a wide floor of
glittering, yellow metal, and the ores
now coming out are said to be worth
hundreds ofdollars per ton, and at fifty
feet, the discoverer calmly predicts
they will yield thousands per ton.
The mine, if we have been correctly
informed, seems almost as if it must
have been the laboratory of the Great
Father of metallurgical chemistry, and
the vast quantity of ores, showing all
the colors from golden yellow, green,
blue, crimson and royal purple, are in
deed marvellous in beauty, and well
worth a journey to look upon.
The discovery of the "Cid" mine has
created such excitement, as is attested
not only by the constant stream of vis
itors, but it has given quite an impetus
to "prospecting" throughout the entire
region. A new town is springing up,
three store buildings are almost ready
for stocks of merchandise, and applica
tion has been made to the postofice de
partment for the establishment of "Cid"
postoffice. It is understood that the
mine is to be thoroughly opened and
eauioped. and with the advent of the
Thomasville & Albermarle Railroad,
which will pass immediately through
the land, there can be no doubt of the
prosperity of this section.
Mr. Maffly is not only a practical
miner, but is said to be thoroughly
skilled in chemistry and electricity, and
by his uniform courtesy, and strict
compliance with contracts, he possesses
the esteem ana confidence of the entire
community, and richly merits the suc
cess atxtameu.
