BUSINKSS DEPRESSION. -
;For two years or more this coun
try has suffered : from business de
pression; that has affected, to a greats
er or fess extent, all her industries,
and left vast numbers of people with
out employment. - With this general
stagnation, the prices ot most kinds
of manufactured goods have fallen to
a figure almost non-remunerative to
the manufacturer,' while the efforts
of manufacturers have been directed
to working off the stocks on : hand,
and reducing rather than increasing
the supply : It is somewhat remark--able
the conflicting views that are
taken of the causes of this depression,
the low tariff men maintaining, that
it has been caused by the high tariff,
which has led to over production;:
and which at the" same 'time closes
foreign ports to American trade,
while the high tariff men insist that
if it were not for, the" high tariff bur
industries would be at the mercy of
foreign competition, ' and ' that -'we
would be immeasurably worse off
than we are. , ' -;
As an offset to all this, and to show
that there ara other causes besides
the tariff at the bottom of this depres
sionr if for the sake of argument we
concede that to be a cause, the de
pression is not confined to this couns
try, but prevails in Europe, both in
free trade and in high tariff countries.
Many of the industries of Eogland
have been almost paralyzed, and
hungry men and women have gathi
ered about the public, buildings in
London in thousands and demanded
work or threatened blood. . : There
have been labor uprisines in France,
Germany, Eussial. which had to be
suppressed with the baton of the
policeman or the bayonet of the sol
dier, and in the -meantime thousands
of toilers on the other side of the
water who could find the means to
emigrate have come hither to seek
work and bread." Averj large num
ber" of these people remain in the
cities and industrial centres, and are
willing to work for what they -can
get, thus coming into ' competition
with other laborers, ' and cutting
down the" wages they would have re
ceived, without such competition. JJot
unfrequently they have been im
ported by corporations in large num;
bers to take the place of other labor
ers who demanded living wages, and
thus thousands of home laborers
Hlave been thrown out of employ
ment. It was to guard against this
and give some protection to Ameri
can ; laborers that the anti-ioreign
Contract labor bill passed Congress.
Protection to An-erican" labor is to
become a part of the policy of Amer
ican legislation,, and one of the issues
that wijl assert and make itself felt,
and whatever legislation may be had
on the matter of the tariff. it will be
so guarded an, while it has care for
capital invested, will also have in
view the interests of the men whose
muscle and whose brain co-operate
with capital in developing our indus-.'
tries' and in building -up our power.
The tariff question will doubtless be
a leading one in the next Congress,
and will as well be a topic of do little
discussion before that Congress
meets, but we are of opinion that it
will he handled in a business like,
conservative . spirit. - and not in a
rattlenbrain, reckless way, that some
of our Republican friends hope it
will be. v " -' : v "'i '"- k :

. Dayd OiClisen's Will.
: The Columbus (Ga) Times has cre
ated, a sensation by its publication in
regard to the will of the late David
Dicksen, of HancocK county. ; Mr.
Dicksen was 75 years of age; at the
time of his death. - He was the lar
gest slave owner in Georgia before
the war; having 300 negroes of . the
best blooded stock When the rwar
wiped out all that class of property
Mr. Dicksen achieved fame and, for
tune by, his cultivation of cotton,
amassing in fifteen years $500,000 out
of pure agricultural pursuits. - He
had rio children, : and'- his relations,
who are among" the best people of
the State, were ure of being well
remembered. The Times has obtains
ed the terms of the will, and says
that it makes the following bequests:
"Mrs. F. M. Richards, Atlanta, $!,,
000: Miss Anna' Rogers, Atlanta,
$1,000; D&vid Worthen's five sisters
$2,000 each. ($10,000;). Jeff T. .Wpr
then's five brothers - and sisters;
$1,000 each. ($5,000 Mrs. S. D. Rogs
ers, $500; Miss Berta". Rogers $500;
Jeff T. Worthed, 3,000 acres of land,
($30,000) ; Fd ward Eubanks, $2,000 j
Julian and Charles Eubanks" both
colored, 500 acres ($6,000;) Amanda
Eu banks, colored,; balance of- estate,
fully $400,000. Total $460,000.--
"The above," says the Times,- 'isT
the manner in which the late David
Dicksen, one of the most successful
farmers and one of Georgia's richest
men, saw fit-to dispose of his large
estate, . The principal heir is a color
ed . woman, Amanda Etibanks,
whose share is said to be fully $400,
000. Why the deceased madso.x
traordinary a disposition of his prop
erty in favor of negroes in prefer
ence to his white relations may be
imagined by the public, but is well
known to those who live near.- Peo
ple who lijged contiguous to the lands
of Mr. Dicksen held but little neigh
borly intercourse with him, and his
large wealth failed '. to gain for him
their social consideration. It is stan
ted that he made : no bequests of ;a
public charitable character, but ney--erthelese
the public will have ihe
lessons of this life and of his ; death
for ? ite enlightenment. . He being
dead, will receive its charity. ,. . ;

De Lesseps on the Sondan.
In an interview, recently published
in a Paris paper, Ferdinand De Les
seps, the great engineer, is quoted as
saying: . "I have repeatedly warned
the English that to send . an expedi--tion
to the Soudan, was to send sols
diers to certain death. As for ans
cient Nubia, or Ethiopia, it is a couh-i
try in whichjias. if : in a sea. whole
armies of conquerors .have been en
gulped." Cambyses left 100,000 : men
on the deserts, and he - was, only too;
glad to return home with a handful
of followers. The son ; of ; Mehemet
Ali was burned in his camp with hia
army. To attempt to , conquer the
Soudan by force ' is drearcu ' It is
quite possible to give laws to and to
govern these intelligent,' heroically
brave races. In order to reach Khar,
toum, whatever the route taken, one
must cross deserts in which there is
absolutely no . water. An army
whether going or . returning . will al
ways be an easy prey to the warlike
population of Nubia. These can turn
on the enemy as many, as 100 000
fighting men for whom death is only
a secondary consideration, and who
would be scoffed at by the women if
they returned to their villages with
out having -avenged the deaths of
their companions. The " longer the
struggle is continued against the Sou
dan the more difficult will be; the efs
fecting of a settlement. Two years
ago it would have been easy to nego
tiate ; now it is difficult, the animosi
ty of these fanatical soldiers having
been roused. . ;

From Tarooro Southerner July 17.
While visiting Tarboro, on July 8th, I was re'
queued to viiit Miss Mary S. Staton, seven mile
from town, who for seflen weeks had been Suffering
excruciating agony from some -blood poison, sup
posed to be poison oak. On last Tuesday, at her
request, I went to see her, and expected to see great
sintering, but was not prepared for the scene that
met me. . I found, the patient broken put all over
with an eruption -which had occasioned such In
tense Itching that during the paroxysms she was
perfectly uncontrollable, and had scratched and
Corn herself to pieces until her agony was indes
cribable. During these paroxysms she would have
to be held, and her screams could be heard a long
distance. -She -would pray for death to come to her
relief; her whole body was purple and raw, and ex
uded a- yellow water which satuarted the bed
through several thick quilts that day she had pos
tessed herself of a thick gutta bereha ooarse comb
and before she could be prevented, had raked her
self with It With such faroe as to break out some of
the teeth, thus adding to her agony. She was at
tended by as good physicians as Tarboro and Iter
neighborhood could afford, but their treatment af
forded onlv occasional relief by outward aDDllca-
jcatlons, and no permanent benefit,, as the parox-
Fims connnuea w return wiui increasing vtoieiioe.
pon viewing the condition of the patient 1 called
thef amliy together and told them fo bear witness
that I pbomiskd upraise. I could nqt tell whether
my Remedy would relieve or not,' as I had never
even Imagined such suffering, but It could do no
harm and might do good I then gave her a large
dose of the Bittera. and as soon as the paroxysm
was over, I sponged her whole body with the Wash,
while doing o she would call out, '-Oh. that does
feel so good.' -1 thes gave her another dose of the
bitters, and she was soon in a sweet sleep. I con
tinued this treatment,, and whenever the Itching
would recur, I would sponge . the body Instantly
with the Wash, which, in everv instance allayed tha
Irritation or itching, and warded oft those violent
paroxysms. She dlcfenet have an attack during the
day, and by 4 o'clock on Wednesday afternoon, the
disease was under perfect control. The Itching
would recur, but every time was allayed by the ap
plication of the Wash. I left her Wednesday easy
and comfortable, with directions for the treatment
to be continued during the night, and as long as
was necessary. I came again to see her to-day,
Saturday, the 12th, and found -her up and dresssd,
and in the regular prosecution of her household
duties. SUeisent4rev relived,- although she will,
qf course, have, to take the Bitters some time to
completely eradicate the poison from her blood.
During Wednesday, she would freauepfly call for
the Bitters, as she craved its soothing and quieting
effects, and during the day I administered a whole
bottle, with the above results. thUip roving, what I
have i-lways-el-iimed, that my Bemedy is an Infal

WHAT ITHAD DONE. . ,
Tabbobo, Feb. 4,1885.
For several years I have had a trouble with my
breast, which I fear Is eanoer, that being incident
to my family. For two years past my general
health has been wretched from its effects. I be
came go weak I was incapacitated for all work; my
appetite was gone, the sight of food was nausea t
lng to me. I would would wake up in the morning
so tired I scarcely had energy to arise and dress
myself, upon the least exertion I had palpitation
of the heart so violently that I was helpless. I was
so nervous I eould get no good sleep, but would lay
awake at night restless, and when I did drop off
to sleep would soon awake with a start, and it
would be hours before I could get to sleep again.
My constitution was wrecked hope was gone. I
concluded, as a last resort, to try Mrs. Joe Per
son's Bemed. 1 commenced using it last July,
have taken 1? bottles, and the effect has been won
derful. My general health Is excellent. I sleep as
well as I ever did in my life and wake in the morn
ing feeling refreshed and well . I can not only get
np and cook my own breakfast without fatigue but
have fine appetite to relish tt now after T cook It I
can go all day long and am not tired when night
couirs. I have net - had- a touch ef
palpitation of the heart, since soon after I com
menced the Bemedy, My breast does not pain me
at all. or give me any trouble. I do not know
whether the Remedy will cure my breast or not, as
the lump is still there, but If it never does no
words of mine can express my gratitude for what
the Bemedy has dona for me. It has done more
for me than Mrs. Person promised me it would do,
when I consulted her In regard to using tt I will
take pleasure in giving any one Information In re
gard to my case who may desire it. I wish every
afflicted person in the land could know of its vir
tue, I am gratefully,
