SUCCESS IJi JL.IFE.
Mr. A. S. -Hatch, piesident of the
Nevv York Stock Exchange, delivered
a lecture in that city one evening last
week on "Successes and Failures" in
life, in which he gave utterance to
the sentiment that whatever the
achievements or triumphs of a man,
no life could be considered a success
in the true sense of the word which
failed to do something for humanity,
and made the world or somebody
living in it better. This is true. There
are thousands of men in this and in
other countries, who live in this and
have lived in other ages, whose lives,
though they be classed among the
successful, were the veriest of failures.
What is military, political, intellect
ual, business, or other distinction, or
the accumulation of vast sums of
money, the winning of which results
only in the aggrandizement or per
sonal benefit of the winner? Not un
f requently these successes are the re -
suit of a combination of circumstances
which the men have little or nothing
to do in bringing about, but happen
to be in a position to take advantage
or, and thus win fame or fortune
wnichever it may be. with but little
effort of their own. The fortunate
beneficiaries of favoring circum
stances, they win by accident, as it
were, and go upon the record as sue
cessful men, an 1 get credit for great
talent, creative power and will force
wnen they are simply lucky, as the
expression goes, rather than great
We look upon the official dignitary
occupying high 'position, whom the
world regards as a successful man
aud we forget how, to get there, he
sometimes crawls in the dirt like
spaniel, curries favor with the slums
licks the boots of the multitude, and
plays the demagogue to win by pre
tense and deceit the robes he is unfit
to wear. But he wins them, not in
open, manly, meritorious contest.
but by cunning, sneaking, disreputa
ble device and methods, and he goes
upon the roll of honor as a successful
man. How many of the colossal for
tunes that we read of are founded on
fraud, grown by fraud, made from
money originally stolen from helpless
victims or unsuspecting dupes. But
the present owners of these fortunes,
who simply have to sit andsee them
grow, are classed among the success
ful men of the. day, sometimes called.
by way of distinction, "self-made
men."
As Mr. Hatch says, success in life,
in the true sense of that abused word,
does not consist in simply winning
distinction in anything nor in amass
ing great sums of money. The in
ventor who contrives a useful ma
chine that lessens human labor and
increases the power of production for
the benefit of the human family ; the
man who founds a school for the edu
cation of the children of his fellow
men; the physician devoted to his
calling who studies bow to fight and
prevent disease in the human family ;
the preacher or lecturer who in pul
pit or on platform devotes his life to
correcting the errors and abuses that
exist in the world: the farmer who
intelligently cultivates the soil and
demonstrates how the earth can be
made to yield an increased return of
food for man and beast; these, all
these, live teTmore purpose, and their
lives are more successful than the
life of him that wins fame or fortune,
which confer no benefits upon the
great struggling human iamily.
In the Republican primary conven
tions in Maryland the Blaine men
seem to be considerably ahead. The
contest in that State is mainly be
tween Blaine and Arthur. ,

And now Robert Lincoln has writ

"Vice Presidency. If we might judge
from verbal denials of "friendsl and

were no Presidential candidates this
year.

they set an example of temperance
and self-restraint which is a wonder
ful tribute to the value"bf their moral
training. If they would teach us the
secret of their, ability to vkeep the
straight path between indulgence and
abstinence, it would be better than all
the pledges and penal enactments by
which we undertake to deal with a

The Charleston News and Courier
says the people of South Carolina are
indebted to President Arthur and
Judge Bond for the action taken in
reference to the political cases on the
docket of the Federal court in that
State. ItsayB: "The hand of Presi
dent Arthur is not visible in the
actio taken in the United States
court yesterday, nor was the voice
of Jude Bond heard.except as grant
ing, as a matter of course, the motion
which Mr. Melton made. Yet we
have reason to believe that the kind
liness of the President counts for
much in the happy consummation of
the political proceedings, and we
know that Judge Bond was heartily
and earnestly in favor of a discontin
uance of the cases. "

. One day last week an altercation
took place between a man named
David Brown, living near Winston,
and his son-in-law, named John Beas
ly, when Brown'shot Beasley with a
"holster pistol" loaded with squirrel
shot, the load lodging in Beasley's
face, neck and breast. Brown came
to town and surrendered himself to
the proper authorities, who carried
nun before a magistrate, who after
hearing the evidence in, th matter-
dismissed Brown on his own recogni-

thatt Beasley had ill-treated his wife

worked some time on a paper in
the Cherokee Nation. He afterwards
went to Fort Smith, Ark., and in

Smokehouse. thieves, it is said, have
been operating in some sections of
this and neighboring countries. At
some places they were successful, at
others not.
An amusing incident once took
place in what is called the "Dunkard
settlement," in this county, which
will bear "re-bashing :" A good old
brother, belonging to that denomina
tion, one night saw two men lurking
about his smokehouse, and getting
himself outside of his dwelling un
seen by the men, he ; concealed him
self and soon learned by their con
versation that they were making
preparations to raid his smokehouse;
The old gentleman kept still and
awaited developments. Pretty soon
the thieves went to work and dug a
hole Tinder the bottom log of the
smokehouse. When the hole was
large enough for a man to crawl
through one of the fellows crawled
into the smokehouse and began
handing the bacon out at the hole to
the fellow on the outside. The old
man watch the proceedings awhile
and then made his presence known
to the fellow, on the outside, who took
to his heels and ran off without let
ting his confederate -on, the inside
know that they had been discovered.
The old fellow kept quiet and placing
himself in the absconding rogue's
place, took the meat as it was handed
out and piled it up. When all but
two pieces of the bacon had been
taken down - and handed out, the
the thief on the inside called out and
asked if they shouldn't leave them
for the old man. "I guess we had,"
answered the old man in a disguised
voice. The fellow then started to
crawl out when the'old gentleman re
suming his natural voice told turn to
stay in and hang the bacon back to
its place as he handed it to him. The
teiiow could do nothing but jobey,
and after all but two pieces had been
; returned to- its place, the good old

was his surprise when the good man
told him to take thetwo pieces of
bacon that "were kept out to his home
and to work for his bacon in the fu
ture and net to steal it. The fellow
was glad enough to get off so easy
and the good old brother, although
he knew both the men well, never
would divulge their names, but the
joke he played on them was too good
to be kept secret. Salem.

Salisbury versus the butchers is
not exactly, but nearly, the title of a
numerous case on appeal from the
pied poudre to the Superior court.
Warrants were issued by the mayor
against every one vending butchered
meats and they were taken up for a
misdemeanor for the non-payment of
taxes. The mayor sustained the
charge and one case was taken up
dh appeal. The others are withheld
by agreement, and are to abide by
the decision of the court on the ap
peal. The difficulty arises over the
construction of a provision passed
by the last Legislature.

was built for just such service as she
is expected to render here. She is to
be fitted out with a new enirino and
repaired and put to work in two
weeks between the Richmond &. Dan
ville bridge and Swicegood's MHl. It
is claimed that she will be able to
make from eight to ten miles an hour
against the current, and as a tug she
will be able to take two freight
barges up stream. Before long the

The Rowan Republican convention.
which clouded the court house last
Saturday, was Mecklenburg's anti-
Jode. There was an atmosphere of
anguor, an air of ennui and utter
weariness over the whole, and as the
actors yawned away in rows, or
blankly stared into the vacancy of
the chairman's face, it seemed that
the convention was about to fall
asleep. Two colored men seemed to
own, run, nex and reflex the dusky

Do Not Forget
That when any article by its own
merits has acquired public confidence
and patroarage, it is at once imitated,
and the greater the sale of the genu
ine article, the more the imitations.
Take, for instance, the host of so
called porous plasters; every one of
them is endeavoring to trade on the
reputation of
Alley's Porous Plaster.
. The only safe way for purchasers
is to insist on having the genuine ar
ticle, and not allow themselves to be
swindled by having plasters said to
be "just as good," or "containing su
perior ingredients," imposed upon
them. These are only tricks to sell
inferior goods that no more compare
with Allcock's Porous Plaster than
