ACULnELY PiK3 A very proper and commend able disposition has been mani fested by the newspapers to rest the discussion about the propos ed extra session of Congress un til the Republican Senate can have time to show its hand. If it manifests a disposion to heed the voice of the people, as ex pressed at the poles on the 8th of; last month, and shall pass tho relief measures sent over to it by the Democratic House du ring the first session of the Fifty Second Congress there will be no necessity for an extra session. On the other hand, if they fail to grant the relief prayed for, we can surely trust to Mr. Cleveland's coed sense and patriotism to take such' ac tion as the circumstances seem to warrant.

President aad Vice President and rrre sentatives in Congress, to which is referred bills and resolutions proposing amendments to the Constitution with this end in view. Representative Bel thoover of Pemsplvania is the author of a resolution introduc ed in the House the other day which 'has for its ooject tbe election of the President and Vice President by the direct vote of tho people, and - this has been referred to a sub-committee consisting of Representative Uruin, uantz and Johnson A sub-committee wont into the disseussion of this matter very thoroughly last year, and as a result of its deliberations a joint resolution on the subject was prepared and introduced in the House by- Representative Do Arraond. It is favorably indorsed by some of the mem bers of the committee. Thi House Committee on Military Affairs is entitled to tbe honor of first getting a regu lar annual appropriation bill into the House at this session. The Committee wont energeti cally to work and Friday com pleted the preparation of tho annual bill for the maintenance of the Army and will report it to the House so that it can be taken up this weex. The bill rndxes a total appropriation ol $24,202,739, or it6,760 loss than the -bill for the current fiscal year. For the pay of the Army 13, 250, tm is appropriated, be ing t42,"CO less than the amount carried by the bill for tho cur rent fiscal year. Ine appropria tion for goneral expenses of tho Army amounts to $10,943,650, being $41,500 less than the current law. Tho estimates submitted this year aggregated 25.922.055. so that the bill re ported is $1,720,216 below tho es timates.

There is hope for the bald- headed man, unless Dr. John Edge, of Beading, Pa., is a vis ionary Or a base prevaricator. He claims to have successfully rafted hairy skin on bald eads. The colored preaehor who is upbraiding Uov. Uogg, ol lex as, for failure to reimburse him for the money he invested in buying votes at the late election, wasn't bulling the vote market much whoa he bought them at from 75 cents to $1.50 a vote. A man died in Now "iork who was worth $4,000,000 about the same time that Jay Qould died, but bis death was hardly notic ed. A man must be worth more than 'that, these days to attract much attention, even as a corpse. A Foughkeepsie, W. Y., wo man wants to receive $20,000 damages from a railroad for running over and Jciuiar tne man to whom she was engaged If she should recover there will be a boost in engagements in that State. There are lots of lawyers in Congress, but there isn't enough of them to make laws that otn or lawyers can't punch holes into. Au frustration of this in furnished in tho Inter-State Commerce act, which is made practically worthless by the late decision of Judge Gresham. A Republican contemporary thinks it isn't wonderful that the conntry went Democratic this year when there were Zi, 000 people who dropped letters in we poswmces wiiaout wnv ine anv address on item, it . . . w m tbnne absent-minded letter writers bad a hanl in the Dem ocratic sweep they wore evi dently not absent-minded enough to forget to vote right. They have some orginal gen iuses down in Texas. It was one of these who conceived the idea of mounting a 700-pound hog: on a wagon at the bead of a procession whici was cele brating the election of Qov. Hogg, There were probably two diftgutted individuals in Texas about that time, one tho Governor of Texas, the other bis extemporized 700-pound representative. Thirc is no public question that is of more interest to tho people of North Carolina, and specially at this season of the year, than that or now to im prove our country roads. The fact that at the time the legis lature meets the roads are in their worst condition, as near ly every member of either house ' i l : . u . win discover on bib wy w no capital, should of itself force the consideration of this ques tion upon that body. This road question is perhaps the most vital one that is proseote i to our people today, itauroaas are necessary to the develop ment of our titate but how much of a development will a railroad accomplish without good wagon roads connecting with it. AtiiiAftr, a little over one month after the election, the good res ilts of Democratic Jvic- tory are oerianing to on ion.

It is said that Samuel J. Til den was the only man who ever got ahead cf Jay Uould in stock transaction. Un one oc casion ur. iiidon seia in.vw shares of Union racific stock in ftiicuaway as to make Gould think that it was some "bear" unloading, and consequently it bad no ellect upon loo market. At soon as it was found that Mr. Tildsn was the seller the stock dropped six points. Tub Winston correspondent of the Raleigh News and Obser ver learns, from a private source, that Thomas Settle has not received his certificate yet from the Slate ReturningiUoard a Congressman-elect from .the Fifth district.

"I have tho honor," said Mr. Davidson, to be a great grand nn ct F.nhra.im Brevard, the author of the Mecklenburg De claration or independence." "And my greatgrandfather," added Mr. Stevenson, "was Ephraim Brevard, the author of the Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence.' Near by sat another mem ber, Jim McKenzio, of Ken tucky.

"Mv people were North Caro linians," said the applicant. Mr. Davidson was present. "And who," aked he, ''was your groat-granf.father?"

This is fresh evidence of what is already known that as large hogs can be raised in North Carolina as any w unrein the world- Very few of our farmers can make any money tinder present conditions, and the best thing in the world to do is to raise something to eat and wear. Meal can he bought at low prices for ash at any time, but there is no rasa to pay tor it. Hence the wisest thing to do is to raise it yourself. If you can raise one good hog, it will prove a good thing for your family. lou know w newer tne nog was sick or well when killed.

The store room was filled with smoke and amallori atroncrlv of dvnamite. A large hole had boon drilled in the door just above the com bination knob and '.'dynamite was poured through into the interior of the door in liberal quantities. The burglars affect ed an entrance to the store by boring a bole in the door and removing a bolt. The town was alarmed and on the move within ten minutes after tho explosion, but no trace of the burglars could be found. They carried oft a lot of valuable pa pers, including land deeds. ' mm ' i The persecuted Jews, even of of the favored upper class, can no longer resort to an enforced deception in the matter of a pro fession of the orthodox faith in Russia, for the reason that they must now go out and live three years in an ancient monastic village, an hour's distance from Moscow, to submit their piety to the daily inspection of the resident monks, before they can continue their residence in the former capital of the Moscovite Empire. It is said that the latest ukase, subjecting the un happy Jew to immediate jexpui sion from Russia unless he be comes baptized in the Orthodox Church, affects about 1,500 peo ple, mostly weaitny and an educated and refined, and reduces them to comparative oeggary.

Eugene Cram pon, tne murderer oi two men, this morning paid the penalty for his crimes, and the canaile that gathered to see his execu tion greatly enjoyed the spec tacle afforded by the miserable, cowardly wretch as he was liter ally carried to the guillotine. It was generally Known tnat tne excution would occur in the Place de La Roquette this morn ing, and long before daylight the crowd began to gather. Rude jests were bandied about and the usual scenes that make disgraceful the carrying out of the death sentence in Paris were enacted. Grim and awful the red guil lotine looked up ahead of the little party. Walking afoot Crampon raised his eyes and saw it. With a terrible shriek he threw himself backwards and fell to the ground. All efforts to induce him to rise were fruitless and he groveled on the flagstones, begging most oiteouslv for his life. It became necessary to lift Crampon to his feet, but even then he hung limp in thoir arms, and they were compelled to carry him to the guillotine. While some of the assistants supported hiu others quickly bound him and threw him against the bascule. Evtn then he did not cease his struggles. His contortions were terrible but they did not last long. The lancule was dropped into place and the assistants shovod it forward until Crampons neck rested in position under the knife. Silently and like a streak of light, the bright blade fell and Crampton's head dropped into tke open basket awaiting it. The execution was the most horribte ene that has been wituessed in Paris in many years. Almost a Fensation was creat ed in the House, when the army appropriation bill, which was Fassed last week, was taken up or consideration, by an amend ment proposed by Representa tive Anthony, ot Texas, pro viding that no payment of salary should be made from the appropriation to any person receiving a pension or allowance from the Government.

Thi Presidential electors will meet the second Monday ia Jan uary next. FOR the first time In tri a riintnrr of the country, the whole nation appears to be roused upon the immigration question, it will occupy much attention from Congress this winter. A contemporary thinks that if the law against carrying concealed weapons was literally enforced some people would have to carry their tongues out of.their meuths. Yotjno man, aim at a high standard of moral and intellec tual excellence, remembering that the right alone is bold ana stroig and will always knock compromise juries and techni calities higher than a kite. The most thrilling eloquence that ever fell upon the ear is the eloquence of a mighty locomo tive on the up grade. Burdens make men eloquent, they make the great engine eloquent; what a sympathetic cord runs through all created mundane things. A MaK in Baltimore has pat ented a sleigh te run. by elec tricity. This will no doubt become a popular vehicle with fellows wlio have "best glris" to take out for an airing when the snow comes. ; They will not be troubled with handling the reins, you know. WissTox.

Fur civs, late Republican candidate for Governor, comes out in a card in the Winston Republican to-day, giving his views as to the cause of the Re publican dufeat at the last election in North Carolina. Among other things he says: "The true theory of the Republican defeat was fraud. There was no limit to this in the large negro counties. 1 have a Mter from the pwtnuwter at Halifax since the election, saying if the election had been fair ana fairly counted I would have gotten 8.500 majority in that county. I hardly hare a doubt but what we were cheated out of at least 4.0U0 votes in that county alone, and it was jut as bad in Edgecombe, Johnston, New Hanover and other couutie.
