There are evident signs of alarm among the coalition manipulators in this State at the dissatisfaction that has been manifested within the Re publican party as to the result of their work in Raleigh, and the oppo siuon that is being exhibited to placing Dr. York, a recent acquisi tion, at the head of the ticket in place of some old line Republican. The Greensboro North State, the leading Republican paper in the State, and by far the ablest among them, which vigorously opposed coalition two years ago, but is now an ardent advo cate of it, has been devoting its edi torial talent lately to soft soldering and conciliating the conflicting fac tions, appealing to Republicans to swallow the dose.however nauseating it may be, and take advantage of this last chance and hope of knocking the pins from under the "bourbon" Democracy. It pleads well, plain tively, and would doubtless, under ordinary circumstances, if the dose was not so hard to swallow, persuade some of the dissatisfied to swallow it. In the issue of this week it voices the alarm that is felt by the coalition manipulators by devoting a column of mixed ridicule, denunciation, ex postulation and regrets at the defec tion of Virgil Lusk and Mr. D. McD. Lindsay, who has started the opposi tion paper at Weldon. It attributes Lusk's delection to the fact that he was ousted from the U. S. District Attorneyship, and while it concedes that he is a man of intelligence and has some strikers at his heels, does not think that he will succeed in smashing the machine and bringing the managers to grief. To lessen the force of the opposition it intimates that both Lusk and D. McD. Lindsay are simply playing the role of cats- paws tor the Democratic managers, who are putting up this little job and are putting tnese gentlemen to the front to do the work. The object of this pretense is too apparent to de ceive any one, and it shows the straits to which the coalition man agers are reduced when they must thus early resort to indirect accusa tions of bribery against men in their own party. It is disposed to be severe on Lusk, to whom it refers as follows : The woods are full of men like Lusk, and it is only another instance of the effects of an over surfeit of overnment pap, which being with rawn, from whatever cause, is often followed by deep-dyed ingratitude on the part of the beneficiary, accompa nied by whatever harm their artifices, however weak, can innict. It has a little more tender regard for D. McD. Lindsay, whom it "knows well," and "knew in the past to be a good Republican," and hopes that "he may yet have firmness enough to resist the baneful influences of bourbon strategy and cunning." It concludes with the following warning to the faithful: But it matters but lirtle who may be the next unfortunate to add his name to the black list of bourbon tactics. Every sensible Republican and Liberal in North Carolina can easily discern the "painted devil" set up to their gaze. Common sense teaches that attempts like those made bv Lusk and Lindsay are calculated, if not intended, to further bourbon interests under the color of party fealty. Whatever may be thought of their political intrigues, we are will ing to concede that they are men of some intelligence, and being such, they need careful watching. At the same time, their cunning devices to distract the party that has fostered and cared for them in their extremi ty, will utterly fail, notwithstanding the veil used to cover them but watch. It is well we are warned in time. Be watchful. There is trouble among the man agers, and with the work of apolo gizing for York's previous record, keeping the coalition tub afloat, and harmonizing the malcontents, it will be no picnic with them. Thursday, June 19, 'Greensboro will celebrate the completion of the Cape Fear & Yadkin Valley Railroad to that point. The road has been completed for some weeks, but that day was selected to give ample time to prepare for a big jollification. As a live city Charlotte should send a delegation to represent her and par ticipate in the celebration. All the money necessary ($700,000) to the erection of the new Kimball House at Atlanta has been raised, 'the contracts given out and the work will be pushed. It will be a seven story building, and in structure and equipment will be one of the finest hotels in the country. cNo amount' of decorations or of titles can make a hog anything but a hog, of a fool anything but a fool; on the contrary, they serve to make the tog and the fool all the more con spicuous, v';-: The Philadelphia Times remarks that the "break in the Grant levee gets bigger as, the flood passes out." The last Democratic ticket suggest ed is Dorsheimer, of New York, and Hancock, of Texas. Too far apart. The bankrupt bill which had passed the Senate was defeated in the House last Monday. The House blundered A temperance reformer in New Orleans has opened an establishment where he dispenses iced tea, and seems to be doing a good business. Ben Butler's platform is to educate everybody, pay everybody higher wages, impose upon them fewer hours of work, and distribute the surplus fund in the Treasury to sol diers of the late war. Geo. H. Lewis, a broker of Wash ington City, who pretended to run an oil syndicate, has shaken- the dust of the capital from his gaiters after vic timizing government clerks and others who put money in his hands to the tune -of about $300,000. Germany is fast becoming the mili tary school of all Europe, and Berlin is now crowded with officers of the Continental armies, all anxious to learn the art of war at what is now considered the fountain head. The English officers alone hold aloof with true insular pride, maintaining that there is no school of arms like Woolwich, and Count VonMoltke quietly retorts by showing a dozen practical plans for the successful in vasion of England. Charlotte. Raleigh News and Observer. The celebration of the 20th at Char lotte was a great success. The day was hne, the crowd very large, the city was decorated with flags, the streets were brightened by the gay uniforms of the soldiery and the fire men, and the scenes enlivened by the bands discoursing; music here and there and adding zest to the enthu siasm of the immense throngs that lined the principal thoroughfares. Charlotte was in her glory and the Charlottese wore broad smiles that indicated their complacency and gratification at the happy consumma tion ot their patriotic enorts to com memorate worthily the day so dear to the hearts of all true Mecklenburg- ers. And then they had Hampton with them, and next to Zeb Vance Charlotte adores the great cavalry leader of the Confederacy ; and Ran som, the other loved Carolinian; and Jlivms and Davidson and Senator Jones, distinguished sons of other States who had come 500 miles to join the festivities of the occasion ; but more than all they had Senator Pendleton, whose fame is national and whose big heart Jtakes in jthe whole Union as the object of his pa triotic affection. Yea - Charlotte was happy. Turn where one would he would see pride and satisfaction beaming from every eye and would find a friendly hand whose hearty grasp indicated a warm heart grown still warmer under the pleasant in fluences of the auspicious day.'"Nor was all the enjoyment confined to the Charlottese ; for our part we had a royal time, and well, who could fail to appreciate the kind courtesy of our friends in Charlotte? The Seventeen-Vear Locust. This is "seventeen-year lost" season in Virginia. According to the Prairie Farmer, considerable alarm is felt in some quarters at the announcement. t is a blessing to the country that these voracious fellows are by nature prevented from making a raid all over the country the same year. The history of this insect is curious and interesting. The eggs are deposited in small slits made by the female in the branches of trees. In a short time the oggs hatch, and the young arvse follow down the branches to the trunk, down this to the roots, along the roots to their tips, where they fasten themselves by the beak. through which they draw sustenance. They also attach themselves to otner succulent roots. Mere they remain for nearlv their entire existence of almost seventeen years without other change than a gradual increase in size. They come nearer the surface as the period of transformation ap proaches. They make cylindrical holes some half an inch in diameter, which they carefully cement and varnish, so as to be impervious to water. In this they remain tor sev eral days. They finally issue from the ground, crawl up a tree or stump, take a rest and cast their skin. They como out in the evenmg, and by moraine: the perfect insect is ready for flight. They seem to prefer the oak to other trees, but will take up with many others, having rather a liking for the apple tree. They usu ally appear in the latter part of May, and they disappear in about six or seven weeks. York's Strength. The editor of the Lenoir Topic, writing on the political situation, speaks as follows of York's strength up in the hill country : We have just returned from an extended trip through the counties of Watauga ana Asne, ana our ponurai impressions are derived from the sentiments we heard expressed by the mountain people. As has been stated before in these columns, the Republican ticket, headed by York for Governor, is considered over there to be a weak affair, we tound that a reaction had set in since the election of 1882, and that York would not have been such a hard man to beat for Congress. Many Democrats who voted for him upon personal grounds and because he announced from the stump that he was as good a Demo- crat as he naa ever Deen, nave signi fied their intention of never voting for him again since he had removed the mask and, Mahone-like, openly declared himself to be a Republican. We met on our trip with several cit izens from Wilkes, and they assured us that this county, the home of York, which gave him a majority of X,ZUUm J.B02, Will give mm tiu jxiuau a maioritv under 500. and basing their calculations upon the revulsion of feeling referred to above as attending York's anostacv. they feel cpnfidont of their ability to reduce his majori ty to less than 6W.
