The trifling objections that are i be' ing raised against it are no; . more than were to be expected. ' The truth is there is less objection than I expjeted, and much lws than ha often risen before when tickets were named, and the party majority has been larger than usual' when the votes were counted. I anticipate no more than the usual amount of dif ficulty in carrying on the campaign, and look for a good majority for Mr, Hurst and the other , nominees. Tlirro must always be disappoint ments in politics, but the party in the end will got together and win, as usual. I have no fear whatever of the result in November.

H 'Secretary Morton has more than once shown that his ideas on public afairs are goodf old Thomas Jeffer son, Andrew Jackson sort of dem- , ocracy. .He has just given another instance of it Sometime ago he said to a newspaper man in regard to a proposition to pay a govern ment bounty on agricultural prod acts : "If it will pay to . raise and export agricultural products, there Is no bounty needed. And if it will noj pay to raise and export ag ricultural products no bounty should be given." This did nit please the editor of the New York periodical tr whom the interview was secured. He fixed np an an swer to the Secretary's words and this week Mr. Morton received a proof of it In reply secretary Morton has written him a short letter, from which tlie . following Iaragraph, which is a nutshell statement of th whole bounty ques tion, ia taken : kind enough to explain to your readers how the the Lounty in to he raised to pay the producer of agricultural prudr Sew and Obsorver. Wc are in receipt of the thirty-fifth Annual 1'iemiuni List of the North Carolina State Fair, and from a care ft ' 'i si i iui , perusal, wo nnu many new and interesting features hot here tofore i brought' forward. The offi cers and general .management aro men peculiarly fitted to br.ng out what is beat and most to the inte rar est of our State and people. Mr. Julian S. Carr, as president of the association, is evidently ' 'tho right man in the right place," while the energy of Mr. John Nichols as secre tary, at once assures tho success of tne lair, ino directors or various departments aro gentlemen who have been selected on account of their peculiar fitness and qualifica tions for the duties in hand, an 1 they are all gentlemen of marked ability in their various industrial branches, and exhibitors aro there fore assured of the utmost courtesy and fairness at their hands. The thirty-fifth annual fair promis es to excel even the fairs of last j'car and vcars previous, and not only a few, but all the citizens of Italoigh are taking a porsonal interest in its success; but as it is a State fair and not partial to any section, we think it the duty of the entire State to sco that this fair shall eclipse anything yet undertaken on this line. It shall be made one of the grandest Ob ject lessons ever held up to our people, and visitors from other Slates should go away marveling at our natural resources and industrial de velopment. Wc are informed by the manage ment that no troii lo or expense will be spared to secure and exhibit the the products of the Stato on a larger and more attractive scale than ever before. A new feature this year will be INTERVIEW WITH MRS. - LANEY FORBIS. ' , DE- la Regard to Gunio.BatUq '.'jonnd :'r ii ' February 21,1887.

' 1 ' Premiums have been so aranged that very few; if any, of tho exhibit ors will be a loser by his exhibit, and in most coses they arc sure of a paying premium. - ' The railroads have kindly ! made their rates lower than usual, and articles for exhibition will only be charged freight rates one way on presentation of a certificate from the Secretary. . The grounds, race-track and build ings nave been put in tho most thorough condition, and the arrange ments for the care of live stock ap pears to be perfect. i-rf5 On Friday of Fair week there will be an auction of stock, teL where purchasers are sure to got the very best. " From all indications tho Thirty fifth Annual Fair promise to excel all others, and wo aincm-ly hope it will be a stimulus in all branches of industry. ' , , .

' -,r The ! following" infererftihg inter view with' Mrs. . Johii Forbis, known as. Aunt Xaney, Forbis, by . Judgo Schenck, is published for the first time below. It throws much " light on tho battle of Guilford Court House and relates a very touching incident as to Col. Arthur Forbis: ... t i! Tabitha L. Matthtws married Jno, Forbis, who was the son of Arthur Forbis (No. 2), and grand-ion of Col.' Arthur , Forbis (No. 1 ) The old house is gone, but the pres ent house is in the same yard miles oast of Greensboro.'11 ' 1 Mrs. Bcttie Forbis, wife of Col Arthur Forbis, camo to live with us from the time I was married, in 1828, and lived with us six years. She was ninety years old but retain ed her memory of early events, and loved to recount tho troubles and trials of the Revolutionary war, one aiea at ninety-eight years old. Arthur Forbi3 (No. 1 ) was a cap tain in North Carolina volunteers in a regiment of which John Paisley (father of Rev. Wm. Puisloy) was colonel. This company was composed of men from the Alamance church ( Presby t erian ) Wilcys, G ilmers, Kecrs, Ellisons, Gillespies, &c., In "cider time" (about Septem ber) 1780, Captain Forbis and his company were called into service nd the company assembled at For bis' house. It was a frame house- just weather-boardod the first in that section, and the men -played ball against thohouso tho evening beforo they started. (Old Mrs. For bis survived her husband 54 years.) They left the next day. Her recol ection is that Captain Forbis' com pany went to join the Southern army and was with Greene. (Battle of Camden, Aug. 15, 1780). The firing of the cannon at Guil ford Court House was heard by Mrs. Forbis at lier house, and she sat ujc on a leaning or stooping fruit tree in this (her) yard and listened to it. . Tho third day Mrs. Forbis, whoso name was Bettie, started on horse back to the battle field to find her husband, and on tho way to the battle field, at the fork of the road, near and west of Holt's Chap el, two miles cast of Greensboro, she met her husband on a horse, and Miss Montgomery, who hud , 3 brothers in the army, leading it Bet tie passed them, not recognizing her Another "good Tory," (namo not given)' the Captian said, filled the cap with water and set it; by him, and this was the only, food or drink ho had until discovered by Miss Mbntcomorv:" n'n V'fv :!'.i-''S , , ".The ball extracted from his neck was in the family for a long , while, "Bettie1? kept it and: the Captain's cap together, but it seems to have disappeared or been lost, j' ",' I r Mrs. Forbis hud seen it was an, , ounce ball, slightly mashed. "James Forbis now has the cap. lie is my son." ' ; :' ' ' :i "Bettio"said that Capt. Forbis was in the first line behind Hoskins' fence. Their orders were to have their rifles in the cracks of the fence, and not to fire till they could see the "whites of the enemy's eyes," as they were, scarce of ammuni tion. !, .(V; :.:r.,i: : . , ; ! " A British officer, on horse backj rode along tho line, when some one asked Captain Forbis if ho,. couldn't bring him down. He replied "Yes" and fired on him with, his rifle and the officer fell. ' ' In a short while the horse appeared again with ag,- other officer upon him. He (Forbis) further said that the orders were to fire a certain number of times and then fall back. Col. Paisly "and Captain Forbis had, before this, been on a tour of military duty together in Georgia, when it was said Paisly was made to wear a wooden sword for cowardice. Carulhcrs obtained his informa tion from Miss Ellison, a daughter of Col. Forbis and from "Bettie." who was living at that time. Mrs. Forbis confirms the story of "Bcttie" driving off tho Tory from tho horse "gathering a hoe, bade him leave or sho would put him where he Wouldn't need that lorse or any other." r a. lii i , ' . i . . - vapi. rorius was oorn in hair n mile of whore he lived.

Forbis refused to al low it, and said, "It shall all go to gether." r Before he jdiod he directed tho lands of a number of Tories, which had been confiscated and transferred to him, to be conveyed to them on their refunding the taxes he had paid upon it.
