Angola Bay, or Angola Pocosin, is the name under which alarce tract of wild -laud in this section has been known for many years, Itis located in Pender coun ty aud reaches from the banks of the Cane Fear river, opposite old South Washington, across, in an easterly direcv tiou, towards White Oak Swamp, with which it communicates. . It is a wild, uncultivated, unbroken tract of land, and but very lew persons nave ever pen etrated its recess. We remember when a boy, hearing some strange, stories rel ative to an attempt being made once to explore it by a party who clothed them Felves in buckskin garments, and were armed with axes,hatolietsand guns: This Darty, it is said, were gone seven days and then rettin ed by the way they had entered, completely nude," having lost every particle of clothing they wore in their encounter" .with rools and briers and vines. Thw was, perhaps," a tradi tidn, but a good many years ago an at tempt, which was successful, was made to pierce this wilderness. One of the party, wbo were all young men, was the late Afr. John D. Love, 'and from an ac- kcou ut written by him at the time, we published some years ago in the Iteview a report of the undertaking. - We are now told by th- A'cws andr Ob server ': that Dr. CKas. W. Dabuey has been in this swamp, although to how great distance is not mentioned, and that he brings back most interesting tie counts of-its wonders. It is of great extent, thcre'being in it, upon a rough computation, 40,000 aores of laud. The fertility is inconceivably great. It is now being drained and divided into sec tions, each four miles square. It pre- j sent such a view to the' explorer as does a tropical lorest. : Indeed it is tropical in many of its characteristics. Enormous vines and creepers .wrap the trees, large and small, in their close em brace, and run riot, at the earth's surface and far above. This most . beau tiful and fragrant wild flowers are there in luxuriant profusion and infinite vari ety of color and odor. The blue jessa mine is one or tnemost fragrant of .all. The progress of the greatcanal, or ditch, through the swamp is satisfactory and it will develop some of the best land to be found anywhere The "olue jessamine" referred to is probably the flowen known to us as the blue bell, a beautiful and fragrant blos som to be found in profusion on the banks oft be ricefield near the city, and known to botanists as the blue clematis.

' iJ t y-or la 4tsm( 1'', i The Democratic party of the Union through its representatives in National Convention assembled, recognized that, as a nation grows older, new issues are born as time progresses, and old issues perish ; but the fundamental principles of Democracy approved bythe united voice of the people remain, and will ever remain ns the best and only security for the continuance of free government. The preservation of personal ' rights ; the equality of all citizens before the law 5 the reseryed rights of the States, aua .the supremacy ot tne l ederal gov ernment within tne limits of the consti union, will ever lorm the true basis ol our liberties, and can never be surrender ed without destroying that balance of the right and powers which enables the con tinent to De aeveiopea in peace, ana so- I cial order to be maintained by means of local self governments. But it is indispeusible for the practical application and enforcement of these fundamental principles that the govern ment should not always be controlled by one political party. 'Frequent change of administration is as necessary as the con stant recurrence to the popular will. Otherwise abuses grow, and the govern ment, instead of being- carried on for the general welfare, becomes, an instrumen tality for imposing heavy burdens upon the many who aro governed for the ben efit of the few who govern.. Public ser vants thus become arbitrary rulers. This is now tho condition of the country, hence a change is demanded. The Republican party, so far as prin ciple is concerned, is a reminiscence. Iu practice, it is an organization for en riching those who control its machinery. The frauds and jobbery which have been brought to light in evory department of the government are sufficient to have called lor reform within the Republican party;- - Yet, those in authority, made reckless by long possession of power, have succumbed to its-corrupting influ ence, and have placed in nomination a ticket against which the Independent portion of the party are iu open revolt. Therefore, a change is demanded ; such a change was alike necessary in 1876. but the will of the people was then de feated by frauu which can never be for gotten nr condoned. Again in 1830, the change -was defeated by the lavish use of money contributed by unscrupu lous contractors and shameless jobbers, who had bargained for unlawful profits. or for high oflices. The Republican party, during its letral. its stolen and its bought tenure of power, has steadily decayed in mural character aud political capacity. Its reform prom ises are now the list of its past failures. It demands the restoration of our navy it has squandered hundreds of mill ions to create a navy that does not exist. It calls upon Congress to remove bur dens under which the American shipping has been depreascd it imposed and con tinucd the burdens. , It professes a policy of reserving the dudiic tanas tor small holdings by actu al settlors id nas given atvay the peo- jyo's heritage im now a lew rai.'roads anTNinn-resident aliens, individual and corporate, possess a larger area than that of our farms between the two seas. .

The Democracy pledges itsclt to purify the admininistration from corruption, tq revive respect for the law and to reduce taxation to the lowest limit consistent with a due regard to the preservation of the faith of the nation, to its creditors aud pensioners, knowing full well, how ever, that legislation aft'ectiner the occu pations of the people should be cautious and conservative in method, not in ad vance of public opinion, Iwt responsive to its demands. . The Democratic party is pledged to revise the tariff' in a spirit of fairness to all interests ; but in making a reduction in taxes it is not proposed to injure any domestic industries, out rather to pro mote their healthy growth. From the foundation of this govern- ment the taxes collected at the Custom .House have been the chief source of Fed eral revenue such they must continue to be.' Moreover, many industries have come to rely upon legislation for success ful continuance, so that any change of law must be at every step regardful of the labor and capital thusinvolved. The process of reform must be subject in its execution to this plain dictate of justice rail taxation shall be limited to the requirements of economical govern ment. The necessary reduction in taxa tion can and must be effected without de priving American labor of the ability to to compete successfuly with foreign" -la bor and without imposing lower rates of duty than will be ample to cover any in creased cost of production which may exist in consequence of a higher rate of wages prevailing iu this country. Suffi cient revenue to pay all the expenses of the Federal government, economically administered, includiug penBions,intercst and.principal of the public debt, can be got under our present eyftem of taxation tiom Custom House taxes on fewer im ported articles bearing heaviest on arti cles oi luxury anu ueanng iigiitcst on articles of necessity. We, therefore, denounce the abuses of the existing taritt and (subject to pre ceeding limitiitions) we demand' thai Federal taxation shall be exclusively for public purposes and shall nut exceed tho needs of the government economically administered. - The system cf direct taxation known as "internal revenue-" is a war tax. and so long as the law contiuues the money derived therdrom should be sacredly deposited to the relief of the people from the remaining burdens ot the war and he made a fund to defray tbe expense of the care ind comforts ot worthy soldiers dis abled in the line of duty iu the wars of the Kepunlic and tor the payment of such pensions as Congress may from time to time grant to such soldiers, a like fund for the sailors having been alrea ly provided, if any surplus should be paid into the treasury. We favor an American continental policy based upon more intimate com mercial political relations with the fifteen sister Republics of North, Central, and South America, but entangling alliances with none. - We believe in honest money, tho cold and silver coinage of the constitution, and a circulating medium convertible into such money without loss. Assertiog the equality of all men be fore the law, we hold that it is the duty of the government in its ddaling with the people to meto out equal and exact justice to all citizens of whatever nativ ity, race or color, religious or political opinion. -We believe in a free ballot aud a fair count, and we recall to the memory of the people tbe struggle of the Democrats in the 45th and 46th Congress, by which the reluctant Republican opposition was compelled to assent to the legislation making everywhere illegal tho presence of troops at the polls ns a conclusive proof that a Democratic administration will preserve liberty with order. The selection of Federal officers for the Territories should be restricted to citizens previously resident therein. We oppoa s'imptuary laws which vex the Citizen and interfere with individual liberty..

'' - O.L. A. A Honse Building Ape. -In the middle of Africa is found an ape which builds a shelter for himself in a tree. He selects a tall tree with a branch growing nearly straight out. and about twenty feet from the ground. This branch is for his floor, and over it he makes a roof, exactly in the shape of a largo umbrella, with the trunk of tbe tree for a handle. It is made of leafy branches, tied on to the tree with vines. of which African woods are full, and is -so well shaped and neatly made that it would do credit to a human builder. When the ape is at home, he sits la the branch with his head np under the green roof, and an arm around tha trunk to bold on.
