DAILY CHARLOTTE OBSERVER! THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 28, 1882. CHAS. R. JONES, Editor and Proptor. Kntibkd at tsz foot-Offics at chablotti, N. C. , as Second Class Matter 1 'Democracy is a sentiment not to be appalled, cor- to no danger; U oppresses no '"? tioe ofdespotwn; U is the sole " , , . it u the senhment of equal VdOOT MM JTVl"' 1 v 4 1 right, f equal obligations, the very lavx qf Mure wonld dare to give 110 heed to it THE LEADING QUESTION. There is no longer a question that the Internal Ilevenue and Tariff problems are to be the leading ones, tor some time at least, for our national legisla tors. The sentiment in favor of a par tial or total abolition of internal reve nue, and a revision and reduction of tariff has become universal,and neither Dartv in Congress, even if so disposea, That ijcff pervading the land." "TJmmonosafe depositary of the ultimate powers vqf society but the people themselves; ondifvx think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a uhotesome diacretion,the remedy is,not to take "it from them, but to inform their discretion by edu "cation." Thomas Jkffkb8QM. THURSDAY, NOV. 23. 1882. An old Washington physician says he never in his life saw such a crop of boy babies in that burg as this year shows- Lord Haughton, an Englishman, has purchased 60,000 acres of land in Flori da, and will invest 01,000,000 in the cul ture of sugar. Reports from Europe state that the relations between Germany and Russia have become so strained that war seems inevitable. The North Carolina Legislature will stand.Senate Democrats, 34 ; Radicals, 15; Liberal, 1. House Democrats, 74 ; Radicals 46. . The Augusta Chronicle very proper ly asks : Is the counting out of Chal mers thejbeginning of a series of blun ders that will end in another Republi can victory in 1884? Henry Grady says an English compa ny have bought up a large slice of North Georgia for 85,000,000 and intend to mine for gold on an extensive scale. P. T. Barnum says that"whiskey will kill the best circus ever organized." It will kill the best anything ever organ ized except a distillery, and it will kill that if the bosses fool with it too much. Gov. Ben Butler is reported to be a firm believer in the efficacy of prayer. Ben may have changed his style some what, but judging from his method of emphasizing in former days, it is to be presumed he did his praying by proxy. Labouchere, editor of the London Truth, has introduced the American style of paragraphing, and it takes so well in preference to the long editorials customary in English papers, that it is thought he will revolutionize English journalism. Augusta Chronicle: Gen. Leach, of North Carolina, says $10,000 of Jay Hubbell's money secured two Republi can Congressmen in that State. How much would it have taken to buy the whole commonwealth at that rate? Said we not that some of the North Carolinians sold out "disreputably cheap." See here ; if you don't quit this we'll go down and throw a brick at you. Congressman Bisbee.of Florida, says he owes his election over Finley to the fact that he advocated protective tariff, while his opponent advocated "a tariff for revenue only." The chief industri al interests of the district are growing of oranges, lemons, and other tropical fruits, the manufacture of lumber, and to a considerable extent the growing of rice and sugar, and it appears these in terests respond to Col. Bisbee's appeals in behalf of protection to American in American Register: Any citizen of the United States can vote in Texas after a residence there of 12 months. By the way. Texas is the country for a poor fellow overwhelmed with debt. He can put $5,000 into a homestead.and then on this homestead erect $500,000 of improvements, and the whole is ex. empt from execution sale for debt He need only deem it his home and act ac cordingly. This homestead law operates practically as a repeal of laws for the collection of debt, and people in Texas trade "upon honor." something will be done is general conceded, but precisely what is the question that remains for solution. There are those who are in favor of a total abolition of, internal revenue, among them Republicans as prominent as Judge Kelley, and prominent Demo crats as Mr. Randall, both recognized leaders ia their respective parties, and both commanding a strong following. There are others, again, who favor a partial abolition, abolishing the tax on all taxed articles save spirits and to bacco, which are classed as luxuries and which, they hold, could stand a reasonable amount of taxation without imposing any very heavy burdens upon the people. Among the opponents of total abolition and in favor of retain ing the tax on spirits and tobacco are the large distillers and manufacturers who have a large amount of capital in vested and to whom the tax imposed is an advantage rather than an injury be cause it keeps men of small means out of the business and gives them practi cally a monopoly. Among the advo cates of total abolition are the friends of a protective tariff because they be lieve that if the income to the govern ment be done away with an increase in the tariff duties will necessarily follow, and that will help them and give them the protection which they seek. So we see that there are different interests in volved in this knotty question, and in terests that will insist upon making themselves heard when the matter comes before Congress for action. But whatever the interests they are all in favor of doing something, and that something will result in wiping out some of the present odious features of taxation. the ranks in an organization where he once stood as a recognized chieftain. As he labored to build up his party so he labored, but without effect, to pre serve it from the domination of the men, and the influences which have corrupted it and hastened its decay. - . It is said that ex-Senator, now Congressman-elect, Wm. Pitt Kellogg, of Louisiana, is a Jew by birth, but in in fancy was adopted and raised by a Ver mont preacher named Kellogg. "When William grew up he preached for awhile, but drifting Southward found more lucre in politics and let his religion slide. Fire in Tennessee. New York, Nov. 22. A Henderson, Tenn., special says that 6 business buildings were burned last night. Loss $20,000. This, from the Philadelphia Press, Republican, is brief, but to the point: The collection of the internal tax costs the government over $5,000,000 annual ly, and employs more than 4,000 people. The presence of this army is a constant source of irritation in the South. It promotes a feeling of hostility to the general government in large sections of country, and as it is no longer necessary it is sound policy to abolish it and re move such a constant source ef irrita tion and a too frequent cause of actual bloodshed. A VOICE FROM THE PEOPLE. We publish to day a letter from a prominent citizen and Democrat of Salisbury, which has some points in it which it would be well for Democrats, who desire the future success of the party and the triumph of true Demo cratic principles, to reflect upon. The writer is no politician in the office seek ing sense of the word, but a sterling Democrat who believes in a Democracy which is in full sympathy with the people and desires to see that kind of Democracy triumphant. To the intelligent observer of passing events it must be manifest that there is not that lively interest among the masses of the people in the Democratic party as an organization which has heretofore existed, and which must ex ist to ensure its predominance in the future. Were it not for this waning interest it would have been utterly im possible for our opponents in the late election to have won the partial success they did and come so near wresting the State from us in the popular vote. It was not so much the defec tion of Democrats from the party as the apathy, and dissatisfaction that prevailed that caused this result, thous ands of Democrats remaining away from the polls that heretofore have voted the straight ticket every time. When the people get an idea that a few men aspire to run the party in their own interests.if they do not rise in open revolt, they do the next thing to it, and let these few men and their following do the voting, and the result isdefeat.or majorities that the party managers ought to be ashamed of. That this be lief has spread in North Carolina with in the past few years cannot be denied, and it has spread to such an extent that it has become a very serious mat ter, a3 recent events, and our reduced majorities show. We will not discuss this subject further, but simply remark that our correspondent is not alone in his way of thinking, and it behooves our leaders, or would be leaders, to get the fences in order, correct the abuses complained of, and put the party in more compact and better shape to meet the enemy in coming contests. The Memphis and Charleston Rail Road. Memphis, Nov. 22. The stockholders of the Memphis & Charleston Railroad met this morning, Hon. Jere Baxter, Vice-President of the road, read his annual report showing how far the board of directors had proceeded m effecting a compromise of the lease of the road to East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia county.

The St Louis limited express, leaving here at 12.05 this morning, on the Pittsburg, Cincinnati and St. Louis Road, was wrecked near Union Station, 26 miles east of here, by a rail which had been placed across the track. The accident happened shortly after one o'clock. The engine was pitched down an em bankment over 30 feet, turning twice over and landing in a field. Two postal and baggage and passenger cars were thrown to the bottom of the hill a con fused wreck. No person was fatally injured, but a great many persons suf fered broken limbs and bruises.

Looking at a bottle or Hunt's Remedy, one would never suspect its con cealed power, greater than the eloquence ox uiys ses. But when It begins Its work with a patient who is afflicted with any kidney or liver disease. "Oh! the mighty voice," and the wonderful heal ing effects produced In an incredibly snort time. As there was but one "wise Ulysses" la an toe camp of the Greeks, there Is but one Hunts Remedy in all the list of kidney remedies; and there Is Done that W3rks such marvellous results.

Arraigned for Playing on Sunday. Cincinnati, Nov. 22. In the police court this morning manager James Fennessey, of the Coliseum Theatrp, with 11 others who appeared in the performance given on Sunday at that Theatre, were arraigned for violation of law. Other theatres were open on Sunday, but no other arrests have been made, the intention being to make a test of this case. The trial was post poned until Friday afternoon. Bnrned to Death. Newark, N. J., Nov. 22. Mrs. Mi chael Caffrey, of No. 1S1 James street, was seized this morning with a fit and fell upon the stove, which set tire to her clothing and then the bouse. The woman was alone in the house and be fore neighbors could rush in and extin guish the llames, the unfortunate wo man was burned to death. The house was but slightly injured. Predicting: Her own Death. Montreal, Canada, Nov. 22 Mrs. Stewart, whose husband was drowned in Lachine canal some time ago, told a neighbor this morning that she was going to die during the day. She begged the woman to remain with her, as she had a horror of dying alone. To the surprise of her neighbor she died shortly before 11 o'clock. No Fooling with the Judge. New York, Nov. 22. Abraham Marks, the lawyer who attacked an op posing lawyer in open court, was sen tenced to day to 30 days imprisonment for contempt of court. He had previ ously apologized, but the Judge refused to accept the apology as sufficient. At the Cincinnati Industrial Exposi tion a large number of men and women were weighed, with a view to deter mine the average weight. The number of men weighed was 7,467 ; the average weight was 154.02 pounds. The num ber of women weighed was 14,688 ; ave rage. 130.87 pounds. The average weight of, Ohio men was 157.88 pounds; of Ohio women, 133.26; Indiana and Il linois men, 158.52 pounds; women, 133.55 ; Kentucky men, 158.43 pounds ; women, 133.76. Haawell states that the average weight of 20,000 men and wo men weighed at Boston in 1864 was : Men, 141 pounds; women, 124). From these statistics it would appear that corn, as an article of diet, is a su perior flesh producer to the bean. COUNTING OUT. As one of the great Democratic party, who believes in honest methods and fair play, we trust that the blunder by which J. R. Chalmers, of Mississippi, has been declared defeated, and the cer tificate of election given to his compet itor, Gen. Manning, will be corrected, and the seat be given to Chalmers. He was evidently elected, as the tickets voted for him show, and under tha cir cumstances we do not see how Gen. Manning, whom we take to be a man of correct principles, can be willing to avail himself of a mere blunder, when the majority is, evidently, against him. The canvassing board, no doubt, kept within the letter of the law in acting as they did, but that Is a matter for the canvassing board, and should not gov ern Gen. Manning. It is no justifica tion to say that the Bepublicans have done the lame ihing. or worse, and would repeat it,if they had the oppor tunity. This it aU so. ButweirendW In a position to set the Bepublicans a good example in honesty .and we should do it. We have demanded fair play and honest methods, and let us not eat our words, nor show that they were mere FIXING UP ANOTHER STEAL. It is reported from Washington that claim agents are fixing up a little scheme in the shape of a new bounty bill, the object of which is to pay sol diers who did not receive a bounty $100 for each year's service in lieu thereof. 'J his would be a nice job for the claim agents if they could succeed in working it through Congress. There is a double purpose in it, no doubt, partly business and partly political. If they can work it through there will be a line field for energetic stealing and the aforesaid claim agents will have an" other bonanza to feather their nests from. If they fail to get it through it will be in consequence mainly of the opposition it will meet with from Dem ocratic representatives, and it is hoped that may have some effect in arraying the soldier element against the Demo cratic party. But whether they count on this or not the day for big steals even in the name of the soldier has passed by, and congressmen, whether they be Democrats or Republicans, will look before they leap into any more bounty fraud traps, and squander the people's money as has been done in the past, not so much for the benefit of the soldier, who derives comparatively but little benefit from it, as for the claim agent who first gets his fingers and all of them into the pie. The men who are to represent the people henceforth have heard something and will be apt to keep their eyes open for claim agents and other fraud builders. Banal of a Bishop. New York, Nov. 22. An Evening Post special from Vincennes, Ind., says the body of the late Bishop De Ileilan- aore was buried under the altar of the Cathedral this morning with great pomp. Four bishops and an immense crcwd were present. Not Much Use for Grand Juries. New York, Nov. 22. A Salt Lake special says: The Grand Jury of the United States Court has been discharg ed with reports that it is unable to find indictments for bigamy, it being im possible to procure witnesses, or get ac cess to marriage records, on account of local prejudice against punishing polygamy.

DEATH OF THURLOW WEED. Thurlow Weed, the veteran Journal ist, died yesterday morning at his resi dence in New York. One of the co temporaries of Greeley, Seward and Other founders of the Republican party, he has been for half a century a con spicuous figure in journalism and in the politics of the country, and wielded a power in his own State that was felt. In his advancing years he was gradual ly overshadowed by younger and more active men until he was lost sight of as a leading figure, and ceased to exert any active influence in the manipula tion or shaping of party policy. In his latter years, though a Republican, he was not in thorough accord with the boss system which got the ascendancy in the Republican party, flnsLJience found . .himself reduced to The Wondrous Change in Bntler. Boston Herald, Nov. 14. The change in Gen. Butler's manner is wonderful to behold. In place of the impassioned stump speaker, dividing his time between shallow sophistry and savage outslaught, calling eminent citizens offensive epithets, we see, since the election, the conservative patriot and friend of learning, the benignant father, ("Bless you, my children 1") and the moral adviser of youth. What a blessed change to come over a man in the evening of life, after a stormy and checkered career 1 But we warn Uncle Benjamin against the danger of becom ing too didactic. Dullness that way lies. He will disappoint some of his ardent friends if he becomes common- Elace. He should remember that he as two strong points pugnacity and humor though, perhaps, we should put humor first, as that appears in his., pugnacity, spreading a charm over it and making him interesting in opera tion.
