. Far two week it bad been widely
advertised that a great, ovation would
be given Marion Butler in Clinton on
latt Thursday,, On Wednesday even.
Ing' tmlu the fenstor arrived from
"Elliott City". He stepped off the cars
doubtless ' expecting : an -Immense
t&rong to -rush uo- and greet him
But t his disappmitinent and cbugrin
there was shout the smallest crowd al
ihe depot that has bje.o there this year
when a train cttme in., ,
: Thursday . 'morning, jrlawtieil' bright
and clear. It was a bestitilul day arid
the Senator was of the opli.ion . that
Clinton might not he sole to hold' the
people who would be here .to honor
him. Early in the morning the - most
woe-beaoue looking negro bind that
ever made a fus on eaith arrived iu
wagonett drawn by two mules. . The
baud liquored up Immediately, and by
11 o'clock was gloriously drunk. f
At the appointed hour It staggered
up College street : rooting and drum
rning at tbe bead of a procession of
lees than two hundred pt ople. Tho
Senator was e coited down town and
look bis seat on the stand on court
house square where he -at with a low
ering look as stiff as ' if be bad swal
lowed a fence rail. . vj He must have
painfully -tortured himself in trying to
put on Senatorial airs, in a ' desper
ate eflort to look , like a Senator a
thing he can never do. "
The crowd was all present by this
time, and it did not exceed three hun
dred people a" good many ' of whom
were democrat, who were . here' , from
curiosity to fee how a Senator's clothes
became a picayune. .;),..,
Mr. F, M. . VVb ta made some re
marks ontthe pnrity ol .the Senator's
character, but his tongue bad a dispo
sit ion to cleave to tho root of bis
mouth.' Capl. J. B. Lloyd, of Tarboro,
then aro-e and ' introdnoed the 'Sena
tor to the audience. A Butler rose
be looked in ooutrart to the courtly
and dignified Ransom, whom be sue
ceeds, like a singed cat to a Bengal
iger. There was a faint hurrah by a
few zealots, which was augmented by
the brays of G.ady Saiitb's jack. Vut
ler then launched cut iuto hie speech
whinb was nearly three hours in length.
Everybody was surprised and- 1 1 "ap
pointed at ita .nature. . This occasion
was a gulden opportunity for biro to
nave made a speech becoming a Sen
ator, aud that would nave J been Ix-th
pleasing to his frleud end concil
lutiry to his enemies. o. .' '"
Asemihle roan would have recognized
and tikeo advantige of this .ppportui
uity, hut, tie small, hliter, .sple etio
llutler made a low, littje contemptible
speech which loeeted hlia iulthe esti
mation of every one that heard hint". ,
It was not speech that a man In say
degree tit to be a Senator would have
made, but a rigamarvle of vile false
hood and scurrilous sbns'.. It wasn.
one hand a feeble and dwgunt'ng de
fense of this Legislature, otherwise
known as tbe Fred Douglass Memo
rial Association, and on Ihe other hand
an unwarranted aud Indecent denun
ciation of the democratic party aud
pres..- He breathed lbs word lie with
almost every other breath, and de
nounced as false things that he knows
to be the truth. He evidenced his
ability as a politician ot the most vul
gar order by bis Utter disregard for Ihe
truth. Hh slacked Ihe Hampson Dem
ocrat viciously and Med to dodge it
truthful charges by. making apish ef
fort at ridicule. . But the peowl-t d
not permit the. grimace of a . monkey
iq men's clothe to offset facts which
they know to be t'ue. At intervals
ihe intoxicated band wonld ro'l 'Its
drums ,but tbe meet liberal applause
which the speaker got was from Ora-
dy Smith's mule, which would not let
ny one out lo him in honoring a Sen
ator of his own kind. ' '
It is a ceedtt to Ibe wisdom and
Intelligence of Sampson's fanner that
so few of tbem wasted a day In com
ing here t ovale a devsgogue that
haa positively done the farmers of N.

They could not afford to rtop their

This slgi of rettralog reason on Ibe

United Kingdom whose Income from
business protitt wore returned as over
$250,000 a year. . In 1836 there .were
only seventeen estates which paid pro-
bale duly no about $1,250,000 each."
These are bewildering'' figures. If
wealth continues to concentrate in the
hand of a few io thetieast lorl another
generation, aa It baa done in the past
the southern and western State will
be mere provinces,; and the politic
legislation, commerce, luduslry and so
olely of tbe entire country will be doinl-
"ted by a few hdndred families In
several of tbe New England and, fold
States, Are we soon to reacbla 'point
where a few money king will elect
presidents snd congresses,', aud shape
Ibe destinies of the nation with all the
absolute power of a despotism?
But will Ibis concentration of wealth
oootioue? ' We cannot believe Ir.tOon
d it ions bsve ohsnged In -the pa-t, and
we way expect tbem to change io tbe
fulute. I , . .
