The Leffislature Will b" Anked t Kmlow It. : A correspondent of the News and Observer writes on the sub ject aa follows: Did you ever tninjr, Mr. vmi tor, how you'd feel with , one of your sleeves hanging down empty; or did you . ever, try to imagine yourself stumping a round on a wooden legnot one of the light springy things that cost ever so much money, but a regular stick? Vell, if you have not, just take some quiet min ute, when you are not busy, and try to imagine yourself in eith er predicament. You won't find even the imagining of ita pleas ant thought. Having carried an arm in a sling a good many months gives a slight notion of Wt.- -.-v--: r-.-i". i Kow there are a numueroi people in North Carolina who are carrying empty sleeves, aud many more who are lame aad halt. Some of these people are well off and have friends who can wait on them, and take care of them. - It is not these whom I wish to speak of today. Kome one may ask, "who are these people who are lame and ! halt, and why are they special objects of pity?" Ah! there's the question my friends. They are North Carolina's soldiers, hey are not suing for pity, it is justice they need. They are getting old. They are poor. They are not able to work, and they must stay here till they are called away. Are we going to put them in almshouses? Do they deserve that these men who went t the front when an enemy was upon us? r We sent many thousands ol them to the battlefield. ,Tbos ands of them never came back to receive our adulation then, or our miserable pity now. Are we going to let those who came home manned envy, ra their old age, those who are lying in Pennsylvania and innma graveyards those who are sleeping in Tennessee battle grounds? Kemember, iNorth Carolina, these men were with Leo and JaeksoiK'rThey did Borne Bpleu- did work around Richmond in the Valley ut Frederickburg at Gettysburg! i They were splendid at Chancellorsville they were grand . everywhere! 1 hey were ours then when we were so nroud of them. There was.no North Carolina regiment drummed out of service for cowardice. We had reason to be proud of them then; are they any the less ours to be proud of now? North Carolina owes it to her self to take care of them. How is she going to do it? Truly, nobly, as behooves a great State, or by means of fancy fairs and odd subscriptions here and there? bliall we eat ourselves sick in supporting festivals for their benefit? Let's leave that for the church folks. North Caro lina must endow her Soldiers' Home. That we are notiwverty strick en, may be proven by a cursory look at the house we have built for our Governor. Why it's large enough for a Governor and a Soldiers' Homecombined have done that and yet we live! Now let's do d little more. If these stately halls and beau tiful rooms are necueii for one man's family, why can't we raise money enough for a Sol diers' Home too? The legislature is to be asked for a good many favors this winter appropriations here and there. Are any of them more important than the care of these poor old men? we don t want a grand bouse for them, such as we have rais ed for our Governor'u home. They would hardly be as com fortable there as in a plain, sub stantial house where they could put their feet on the balusters and smoke their pipes while they chat over the papers, or fight over some old battle. A goodgardt-n spot where those who are able cun make cabbage or strawberries as their . taxte suggests. It wouldn't coHt much. Nobody wants a splendid pile of masonry or fine furniture to be exhibited only a little com fort fori those feeble old ''then who gave all they haJ for u"s. So many of them "died for Dixie." Let's smooth the pathway of the old men -who live for her, of the two it haa been the hardest work! Mr. Editor, we can eat ice cream lor chanties, out we can't pay debts that wayt And this is a debt of honor. The State must endow the Soldiers' Home, and she . must Th Now Vaur A PUtUdclphlu. f New Yearls ,'custiiis have a firm hold upon the a'fections of tha peoolo of othor pities besides New;Yoik.

A startling publication is on thf point of being issued by the Smithsonian Institution, which will show that many of the most valuable species of nnimals at present inhabiting I the world will inevitably be driven off the face of the earth and rendered absolutely extinct within a few years. For example, the- ele phant is already doomed. Each year 100,000 of theSe pachyderms are slaughtered to supply the market with ivory.; Up to with in a comparatively ! recent pe riod commerce drew chiefly up on the great stores of "dead" ivory iu possession of African natives, which had accumulated for centuries; but now this re serve stock has been exhausted and all the tusks exported from the dark continent must be got "green' by hunting live ele phants.' Thus the herds are be ing rapidly wiped out, not to mention the incidental fact, ac cording to Explorer Stanley, that every pound of ivory that reaches Europe costs the life of a man, woman or child, while every twenty tusks are secured at the price of an entire district, with all its people, villages and plantations. This, of course, is due to the intimate connection which exists between the ivory gathering business and the slave trade. - One can get some notion of what 100,000 elephants mean if he will consider that placed in line' that number -"would stretch 180 . miles. As for the slaves, they are secured for the purpose of carrying ivory to the coast by the Arabs, who attack and destroy the native villages, carrying off into captivity those of the inhabitants who are serv iceable as porters and killing the rest. ; In this way whole re gions in Africa have been de populated and laid waste. 8outhrn Railroad , Building, Sag laaaiicf Xawa.
