Mr. Wm. S. Ball, a prominent Re publican in Greensboro, has written a letter to the Winston Republican giving his views as to the policy which should be adopted by the Re publican party of North Carolina to get itself in good workiug trim for the next presidential contest. Among other suggestions we find the follow ing: The situation in the nation is favor able to another Republican success. Let the party in North Carolina help along the impulse which marks the beginning of the presidential year! I he Republicans, always consistent- m their advocacy of measures which look to the general welfare, should take advantage of the dissensions of their ancient adversaries, and in their county, district and State conven tions should immediately and abso lutely make known . that they favor an UNCOjrDrrioTfAX. bepeal of the in TERNAL REVENUE SYSTEM ! Mr. Ball, we take it, is not very anxious for the fibolitiou of the inter nal revenue system, which is a very essential part of the Republican organization in this State, nor is there probably one Republican leader in twenty in the State who would honestly favor that measure, but Mr. Ball knows that the internal revenue system is odious, and hence this little bit of strategy to offset the move ments in that direction by Demo cratic Congressmen. The object is to put the Republican party on record on that question so that the Demc ci ats may not Kava this advantage over it on the hustings when the campaign opens It is a very clever ruse, coming from that side, because if any steps be taken to abolish, the system they will claim credit for it equally with the Democrats, and if not they still have the machine left. They know that if it is to.be abolished it can and will be done without their aid; and in spite of any opposition they might offer. So they can put themselves on record without taking any great risks, or materially dam aging the machine. They should be taken at their word, however, and not be permitted to play any cheap buncombe on this question, and unless they be taken at their word, and the internal revenue system either abolished or so modi fied as to divest it of its most objec tionable features, they will turn it to good account in coming campaigns. One of the most telling arguments used by opponents of the Democracy on the stump in the last campaign was the failure of the Democrats when they had control of Congress to legislate in accordance with the pop ular demand on that question, and they undoubtedly made votes by it, especially in the sections where the oppressions of that system are most felt. Let it be abolished. It is right it should be4, and, moreover, its aboli tion is a political necessity ; but if it cannot be abolished let it be so re modeled as to deprive it of its political and oppressive power. Baltimore Day: "Mr. Nordhoff writes to the New York Herald from Washington that "the issue in the Democratic party in the House on tax reform narrows Jtselldowntothe question whether the tail-"ought -to wag the dog." r That is fcbefact, and we hope to see a caucus held to give all members calling themselves Dem ocrats the opportunity-to ;&ecle once for all whether thfey c&nstitute ajacfc of the tail wra part of therIoff. The decision is an Timrtant' one to them, fsr it the animal cannot carry his ap pendage in the way he is reselved tq go he purposes to submit to amputa tion." And after such an amputating pro cess wouldn't the "dorg" cut a rather sorry figure? A number of editors seem to have been struck with the irony of fate that Bent Charles Delmonico, the pro prietor of the most noted restaurant in America, out into the woodsjtbdie tike a tramp from hunger and ex posure.

I .iara satisfied that this nmcbine can do all its friends ever cfanned foe it. .- " : : rv' : ; The picking . portion of Mason's harvester is composed of two - cylin ders or drums, made of wood and iron, into which are stuchat 'regular intervals things much resembling corn cobs. These cobs are nollow; they are made of sheet brass plates, seven id number, which are solder ed together, making the hollpw corn cob. These plates are abkttVpne inch wide and the length of the cob about eigh inches.. -They are cutinto numerous openings arid the parts are not removed, but bent sligrjtly up wards and the ends sharpened. The things when finished presents' the ap. pearance of a brass corn cop," with fine teeth . concealed, ju& below the surface. These cobs revalve each on its own axis (a bar of fine steel,) and the drums into which the obs are stuck also revolve. The two- drums supplied with these tooth filled cobs are placed so near that wheii they (the drunis) revolve the cobs pass each other. The machine is driven bv a man sitting aloft, like a buggy plow driver, and drawn rby one mule or horse,. As the machine rolls along the motion of the right wheel sets all the works going. The cylin der .revolves. The oobs, with their depressed feeth, size the ripe cotton ahdtrbyjseveirfg thmfelves, drop it into a box on father? side. An endless band, providexi yvt jwire teeth bent downward.- TAKes-up tne imx and drops it into bags or baskets mtched on to the back of the "Harvester." . If the revolving cob comes in con tact with nnmatured cotton it re volves harmlessly against the points of the half opened boll. If it brushes against a closed ball, even a leaf, or the most tender.twie ofthepIant. it does not even disturb Y the surface.. You can take pne & yo'ur.hand.and revolve it againgt OP"? bare arm, and it will not produce the .aughtest im- gressioq, not 9vef FapQ the skin, u't hold a bit of lint cotton close to it 'and it immediately seizes the lint and holds on to itnntil. by its auto matic .action, ,the. jre7$lution is re versed, when it Bcops the, x:ctton off th ottier way, : Sm, J9wer ; of the machine to discriminate bet ween ripe and unripe bolls is; thiis Jciearly der monstrated. it is a grand triumph of "mind over matterr; .'The ''Cotton Harvester" will enable the planter to pick every fibteof cotfoii he raises at a trifling expense. Mr. Mason tells me it will gathfer 28QJ pounds in an j hour. .This would be 2,800 pounds in en hours equal to the labor of from I fourteen, to twentv-eieht cotton pick- ! era at 50 cents to 7a. cents per day ! Or eaual to an exoenditare ot tl4 for 2,850fribunds at 50 ceqts pet hundred pounds, the usual price in this coun try, r-. : f . I What it will save in the Southwest, where the planter pays one dollar to one dollar and twenty-five cents per hundred to the cotton pickers, can not be estimated. For not only is cotton picking expensive in that part of the South, but a sufficient cumber of pickers cannot be had for love or money, and a large portion ot the crop i$ left to perish in the field. alt. Mason tells me he nas an oroer from Col. Richardson, the largest cot ton planter in the world, for several of the "Harvesters." He (Mason) is improving and simplifying the ma chine every day. The whole thing only weighs about 300 pounds, and will be still lighter before he perfects it. I do not believe the colored laborer will bo at all injured bv the "Cotton Harvester," ana will give my' reasons for so saying another time. c. h. m. Digest of Supreme Court Decision.

TRIBUTE OF RESPECT To the Christian Character of Mrs. Martha A. Caldwell. by the pastor of.the first presby . teeian church, charlotte, n. q. - -Blessed are they that dwell in Thy ; houses they shall be still praising Thee." - And this blessing is- now enjoy ed by our venerable- friend whose departure is our ioss, but her unspeakable gain. Early called by the Saviour, in the morning of life. she obeyed the voice of the Gracious Shepherd, and faithfully followed Him to its'close. Vigour of intellect. the polish of culture- loyalty to principle, blending harmoniously with the sweet charities of a loving heart, the quick sympathies of a warm, generous, ardent soul, and the radiance of a cheerful, spirit, heightened and hallowed Iby grace, constituted an attractive character. arid won her an established 'place in tne hearts of all who Knew her. Com munion with God, meditation upon the glories of Christ, the study of the benptues, the perusal of devo tional works were her chief delight. Literary tastes were sanctified, and mind and heart found their highest satisfaction and eniovment, in the green pastures of Divine truth, and besidfc the still waters of Divine con solation. It pleased her Heavenly Father to perfect her even as her Saviour was "perfected," through much suffering. But throughout the long-protracted discipline of trial, she did not murmur, but meekly drank the cup given her to drink, who said in the spirit of Him : "Thy will be done. " And under the culture of sanctified affliction her Christian character visibly ripened into fitness for Heaven. A long life of uniform piety, de voted to Christ yields a harvest of blessing and honour which enriches society and gladdens Heaven, a harvest, which eternity will be gath ering in and never ceasa to gather in. Who can estimate the worth .oJtuch a i Jhnstian wife and mother? The wise man well says: "Her price is far above rubies. The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, arid her children rise up and call her blessed." The mild light of a consistent Christian character and a holy career sheds its radinnce over all the relations of life, whilst, like the gentle Orb of Night, it gives the glory of it aU to the Great Son of Righteousness, the brightness of whose splendor it in subdued beauty, reflects. How can such a Christian die! Only as dies "the morning-star which goes not down -beneath the darkened west, nor hides obscured behind the tempests of the Bkv, . but melts away into the light of Heaven." To such a Christian the great, untired Future had no fears. Christain faith and hope sustained her, for that faith arid hope were sustained by Christ; and inspired Peace, That Peace, which Jesus gives, and which noth irig can take away, settled Peace, Sacred Peace, victorious Peace, that smiles upon Death and the Grave, and says: O Death! where is thy sting?- O Grave! where is thy vic tory i, . Thanks be unto Uod who giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ." . Upon her honored memory rest, the love and reverence . of. kindred arid friends, the. benedictions of so ciety, the-blessings of- the church and the smile or. Uod. earned Food.

BAM FOB THK iCS JUlir Is North Carolina tor Proteetioal Durham Recorder. - As has been said in determining this question, it is necessary to de cide if it be to her advantage, pecu niarily, to uo so. Tne most eloquent man who ever lived may talk until he is blind be fore he can convince a man of ordi nary intelligence that it is to his interest to sacrifice his moneyed con cerns. A great mistake some rpoliticians make is that they consider men in the aggregate as greatly differing rrom tnem m tneir mamauauty. -. What Is the use in, attempting $o induce men whose condition is ad vanced by a tariff to hecome fre traders? J Of one thing we may be'asuured as of a truth :- That cotton factories North are being reduced in number and the capital which has been -invested in them will, and must of ne cessity be, used in theSouth, To put the proposition in other words. The Nor jh is now the manufacturing sec tion of-the country ; the South at a very early day will be! And. in other words, the North is for j proton? i Tion ueeause she is a manufacturing centre, . The South 'will be speedily the manufacturihersectioh, therefore she -will Jte for, pr.Otectyiou. . Ana xxorin . nas . grown immensely, wealthy bv reason of her manufac turing , industries, ?vhy should ' not the material prosperity, of our sys tem be as ; mucn aavancea oy tne same cause? . , We raise the cotton and have the forests, the sugar and the. rice plan tations, why should our profits . be less on these articles, or on those industries which have arisen from these articles than the profita of the North have been. For example : cannot the manufac turer in the State of Texas make and sell the goods that are made from the cotton raised in his own State, at a smaller figure than he can buy the same goods from some Northern es tablishment? . : The saving that our farmers are beginning to understand, applies with equal lorce to our present posi tion ; that saying is no farmer can thrive who has his smoke-house in Cincinnati. From the census of 1880, we learn that Noi th Carolina has a capital of $2,855,000 invested in the manufac ture of cotton goods and that :f439, 659 is the sum. annually expended in wages for their production: that a capital pf nearly one quarter of a million of dollars is invested in wool en factories, and that a large sum of money is paid by these as wages. How will the influence of this capital which ninety -nine out of every hun dred rru nufacturers say requires protection : and how will the strength of the employees and their friends and their families be ust d this year if the issue between Protection and free trade be made? Then again : will it be wise for the South, because its trace chains may be taxed, to fix the policy of the country, if it can. in favor of free trade now, when the exercise of a lit tle, just a little wisdom will enable it to see that the cry of protection at the North at the present time; will of necessity be the scream of the South in a few short yearsi Let our politicians be wise and our statesmen be on the alert. The wis dom of to-day may be the folly of to morrow. What shall we do? Touch French Tramps. Labouehere's Truth. During the past fortnight no less than eight hundred vagrants have been arrested in the streets of Paris for begging, sleeping out and such like offenses.. This kind of existence seems peculiarly favorable to longe vity, for no less than twenty were men whose ages ranged from ninety to ninety-nine. everai or. wiem, were interrogated declared that they had not slept in a bed, except when in prison, for at least thirty' years.
