Independent parties only succeed when there Is a demand for them. They are and must be the outgrowth of ne cessity. No ordinary state of affairs puts life into them, or keeps them alive, if life should be put into them. We have had from time to time spasmodic efforts in the South to organize what they call Independent movements, but they have never amounted to anything, and never will until there is more occa sion for their existence than there is now. The Southern people, as a rule, are a thinking people; they do their own tbiiiking, are not easily led into byways and tortuous pathsmd have no weakness to follow after strange gods. They believe in principle, and do not readily drop the organizations which cary out, though they may not always fully carry out, those principles. And there is no people in the world which will sooner drop an organization which proves false to its duty or faithless to its promises. Where is the need in the South for any new party, by whatever name it may be called, to take the place of the Democratic party? In what has the Democratic party failed? Has it not redeemed the South from a reign of cor fuption and political vandalism, the "like of which was never seen on tbia continent before? Has it not battled as no party ever battled before for the redemption of the people, and against odds which at one time seemed a hope less task to contend against? Go back to the dark days that follow ed the so-called reconstruction when these States one and all were given ov er to the merciless pillage of a horde of political marauders, whose policy was proscription and whose mission - was plunder, and remember the gallant con test the Democracy waged in those dark and eventful days; with the best men in the land politically disfranchis ed, and ostracised, thousands upon thou sands of them deprived of a vote or a voice in the direction of public af fairs, while the ex-slaves that once cul tivated their fields were clothed with all the prerogatives of law-makers, and adventurers in quest of plunder, lifted their potent voices in the conventions which named our rulers and said who they should be. They ruled as only men without principle and bent solely upon plunder would rule, regardless of law, and of the infamy which they were piling upon themselves. Democ racy struggled ; defeated came to the front again with more desperate re solve; defeated again mustered its men and renewed the attack with a never-say-die spirit, until it was crowned with victory and the power of the spoil er broken and vanished. Peace came to North Carolina, her people breathed the air of freemen again, the voice of discord was hushed, harmony reigned throughout the land, industry took a new start and progress soon be came visible on all sides. And to-day as the result of Democratic ascendancy and wise Democratic rule, may be seen such evidences of prosperity and prog ress as were never seen within her .boundaries before. And this may be said also of other Southern States. And yet there are men, not many for the honor of our South land be it said, who would disturb this order of things who would war upon the Democracy in the interest of Radicalism, for that's what their movement means, that some sordid, petty ambition may be gratified, or some imaginary wrong avenged. Selfish to the core, they seek only self, and would see chaos reign if they could be the gainers by it Independentism with them is simply the stepping stone to self promotion, to political emi nence and power. They stoop low to soar high, crawl through the slime to bask in the sun, and consort with the vile that they may lead where they are too haughty to follow. . This is the inspiration, the sole in spiration, of the so-called independent, liberal, anti-Bourbon movements which we hear of in the South to-day. There is not a man identified with them in the character of a promoter or leader, who is not either a disappointed office seeker, or one who has some selfish scheme to advance. In all their ful minations against the Democracy, they deal only in generalities and establish no charge to justify the revolution they would inaugurate. They fail to show wherein the Democratic party has proved recreant to its trust, or faith less; to the people, but depend for their success upon appeals to the ignorant, whom they hope to delude by pretend- , ing to be their especial champions, and make supporters of them in the effort . to climb ambition's ladder. PASSED THE SENATE. The bill appropriating $50,000 to the erection of a United States building for a court room, rooms for United States officers and postoffice, at Greensboro, which passed the House some time ago, has also passed the Senate. Greens boro was no doubt rejoiced when this news reached hgr, and we congratulate her upon it As this building when completed will add not a little to the appearance and importance of the .. . townT&ne citizens should see that it be erected in somecentral, commanding location, where it will show to the best advantage. If 5 the corner diagonally' across from tbejbourt house, now occu-" pied by venerable frame buildings.could ' be procured, it Would be a capital loca ! tion.

Gen. Grant has solemnly assured his admir ers that "in no event" will he be a can didate, but that will not prevent him from electioneering for bis friend Mr. Arthur. Gen. Robert C Schenck has success fully fought Bright's disease of the kid neys by using skimmed milk as his only diet. Htf has recovered his strength and health, and may reason ably expect some years of life. He is seventy years old. Dr. Attic us G. Haygood, President of Emery College, Ga, declines the episco pacy to which he was elected by the conference, considering it his duty to remain with the college over which he presides. He holds important trusts that would suffer by his withdrawal from the college. A. H. Stephens and Troctor Knott have both reconsidered their resolution to retire from the arena ot politics. FROM WASHINGTON. A BUNCH OF APPROPRIATIONS AND THE LAND BILL PASS THE SENATE. The House Continues Amendments to the National Bank Charter Bill, which Finally Runs the Gauntlet and Passes by a Vote of 125 to 67, Followed by the Pension Deficiency. Washington, May 19. Senate Mr. Anthony reported favorably from the printing committee the joint reso lution authorizing the printing and sale at cost price of a congressional directory and current numbers of the Congres sional Record.

House bills for public buildings at points named, with amounts of appro priation stated, were passed. Louis ville, Ky., $500,000; Hannibal, Mo., $750,000 ; Detroit Mich., $600,000 ; Coun cil Bluffs, la.. $100,000. The House bill appropriating $200, 000 for a public building at Syracuse, N. Y., was a substitute for the Senate bill on that subject and passed. The Senate bill appropriating $75,000 for a building at Poughkeepsie, N. Y., also passed. The Lynchburg, Va, building bill was laid aside without prejudice, pend ing the controversy with the commit tee. The House bill appropriating $200,000 for a building at Rochester, N. Y., $125,000 for a building at Galveston, Texas, and the Senate bill appropriat ing $100,000 for a building at La Crosse, Wis were also passed. The aggregate of these appropriations during the morning hour w as $1,975,000. The Senate bills authorizing the Texas & St Louis Railroad Company to build bridges in Arkansas and to in corporate the Garfield Memorial Hospi tal, were passed. The 5 per cent land bill then came up. The offering and rejection of amend ments alternated with motions to ad journ until finally Morgan moved to provide that none of the money to which any State shall become entitled under the act shall be retained by the United States on account of any direct tax remaining due or unpaid from any State to the United States under the act of August 1871. Adopted yeas 34 ; nays 5. The bill then passed, yeas 23; nays 17. Adjourned to Monday. HOUSE. Townsend, of Ohio, intro duced a bill to establish a board of commissioners of inter-State commerce to the bureau of the Interior depart ment. Referred. The House then resumed the consid eration of the bank charter extension bill, the pending question being on the amendment offered by Crapo, of Mass., as an independent section, as follows: That any national banking association now organized or hereafter organized, desiring to withdraw its circulating notes upon deposit of lawful money with the Treasurer of the United States as provided in section 4 of the act of June 20, 1874, shall bo required to give ninety days notice to the Secretary of the Treasury of its intention to deposit lawful money and withdraw its circu lating notes, provided that not more than $5,000,000 of lawful money shall be deposited during any calendar month for this purpose; and provided further that the provisions of this section shall not apply to bonds called for redemp tion by the Secretary of the Treasury, but when bonds are called for redemp tion the banks holding such called bonds shall surrender them within 30 days after maturity of their call. After several ineffectual attempts to amend it Crapo's amendment was adopted without division. Crapo offered as an additional section an amendment providing that on de posit of bonds the association making the same shall be entitled to receive from the Comptroller of the Treasury circulating notes equal in amount to 90 per cent of the current market value, not exceeding the par of United States bonds so transferred and delivered. It further provides that at no time shall the total amount of such notes issued exceed 90 per cent, of the amount ac tually paid in of capital stock and re peals section 5,171 and 5,170 Revised Statutes. Morrison, of Illinois, offered an amedment providing that Congress may at any time amend, alter or repeal this act and acts of which this is amendatory. Adopted.

The mica from Hickory, of which we were yes terday shown a specimen, is beautiful, and compare favorably with any we have looked at. There have arrived at the Geological Museum a number of specimens of our North Carolina building stones, gran ites, marbles, stones, etc., as well as some rich red slate from Anson county. These specimens, with many others, will soon be forwarded to the national museum at Washington, by Prof. Kerr, in compliance with a request. Our State will be well represented. The Old Log Cabin" Campaign. Salisbury Watchman. We certainly thank Col. Chas. R. Jones, of the Ciiaklotte Obsekver, for the generous invitation to attend the 20th of May celebration as one of his guests during the occasion. We would be pleased indeed to meet the old editors mentioned by The Obser ver, and with them form a sort of squad of honored ancients who took part in the memorable campaign of 1840. But circumstances not easily controlled, constrain us to decline the honor and pleasure proposed by the ed itor of The Obsever. But we would not, however, lose so good an opportun ity to express our hearty concurrence in the aims of those who have promot ed and may take part in the celebra tion of that initiatory event which re resulted in the Independence of the North American colonies, and their subsequent freedom under the consti tution of the United States. No other political event in the history of the world has been fraught with so many results directly promoting the freedom, pi 03perity and happiness of the people, whether of this country or Europe, than that It was the dawning of a po litical millennium which embraced all classes of men in the blessings conferr ed, by extinguishing the "divine right of kings," and declaring all men 'J ree and equal." Infinite wisdom alone can measure the magnitude of an event like this, which in His kind Providence, first took form and shape in the goodly county of Mecklenburg, and where, al so, it found some of its most intelli gent, zealous and efiicient advocates and defenders. It is worthy of com memoration as one of the most import ant transactions in human emancipa tion from tyranny and oppression, and we trust the time may never coine when there shall be none to cherish the memory of it. Mr. Shipherd After Being Discharged for Contumacy Desires to be Heard. Washington, May 17. Mr. Jacob R. Shipherd, who was bo summarily dis missed by the House committee on for eign affairs this morning because he refused to answer the questions asked him, has written a long explanatory letter to Mr. Williams, chairman of the committee, in which he expresses a willingness to furnish in effect all the evidence called for, although it may not be in the form proposed by the commit tee. He is very anxious to reply to Mr. Blaine, and also to clear up matters re ferred to by Senator Blair. He says that he has additional correspondence, including recently discovered letters from the President of the United States, which he is ready to submit to the eoramiltee, although he prudently refrains from txpressing any opinion as to the value or pertinency of the testimony which he thus volunteers to give, all of which he leaves to the judg ment of the committee. He also makes this promjse: "In answering Mr. Blaine and in correcting Senator Blair I shall confine myself within the same limits as if addressing a court of judicature No limitation so narrow as this has been used by the committee heretofore. I wait only to know whether I am to be heard at all." In conclusion, he atks Mr. Williams to lav his letter before the committee, and to advise blm of its decision. M. E. Conference Yesterday. Nashville, May 10. Rev. A. T.
