This year has been an eventful one in both National and State affairs, in which much history hal been made. To many indi viduals it has been as eventful as it has been momentous in the general and larger scope. With all its try ing conditions grave and otherwise we bid it adieu, and stand upon the threshhold of hope to welcome 1899, which holds within its bounds unthought of possibilities fraught with interest and concern to every' one. Let each one so employ the new year that it may yield only happiness and that which is good in this life. The Cape Pear and Yadkin Val lev Railroad is to be sold to day in Fayetteville, WEEKLY WASHINGTON L15TTEII The Legislature will convene next Wednesday. It is hoped wise counsel wiirprevaJl and that only such laws will be enacted as will re lown to the good of the whole Stato. The Peace Commissioners landed at New York last Saturday and proceeded at once to Washington, ' where they delivered to the President the treaty, which is not to be made public until after it is submitted to the Senate. J. M. Mewborne, superintendent of the Penitentiary, has tendered his resignation to take effect on Janu ary 1st, and the place has been ten dered to CapL W. II.

Morrill, Senator from Vermont, died in Washing ton yesterday morning at 1:25 o'clocd from an attack, of pneumo nia in his 89th year. Ho was the senior member rf the Senate in point of service and age. He' had been in the Senate continuously for more than 31 years, His Congressional career in the House and Bonate had covered a period of nearly 44. years without interruption. With only . one exception he was the only one whose career in Congress antedated the civil war. He was the author ofthe Morrill tariff act of 1861. Raleigh correspondent Charlotte Observer : From talks with some 1 ifluential Democrats, it is gathered that if an effective measure for limiting the franchise can be devis ed which will run the gauntluTof the supreme court, it will be in hu man probability be submitted to the people at the regular election in 1 900 as a constitutional amendment, a n noes not appear that H can legally be voted on earlier. There may be at that time some other amendments to -the constitution. One of these, which is being talked about, is the holding of legislative sessions every four years instead of two year. This measure is said to have had a majority of votes is the legislature twice, but did notget the necessary three-fifths. The other measure talked of is an amendment kiving the State, countief and towns the right to exempt from taxation for a period of ten years, new enter prises of an industrial character.

Miles, who shocked them at the begin' ning of his testimony by declining to be sworn, he managed to say that much suffering in the Santiago cam paier was thenesult- of General Shaffer's failure to obey orders; that the Commissary General was inef ficient, and to. twit the Commission for not having 'W onto" the "embalmed" beef sent to his men in Porto Rico, against his protest, in order that contractors favored by the War Department might pocket big profits. lie also by his ans wers to several questionshe. was not allowed to make a general statement made it plain that the ignoring of his recommendations by tbo War Department had resulted in much unnecessary suffering. The trusts are to be directly rep resented in the Cabinet. Mr. E. A . Fitchcock, of Mo., now Ambassador to Russia, who was nominated to succeed Mr. Bliss as Secretary of the Interior and confirmed by the Sen ate a few minutes .before adjourn ment for the Christmas recess, is the head of the plate glass trust and a multi millionaire. Tho administration has derided that 50,000 more volunteers may safely be mustered out and it will be done as fast as possible. The Hull bill, which really ought to be known as the Algcr-Corbin bill, for reorganizing and increasing the regular army, has been reported favorably to the House by a strict party vote of the Military Commit tee.

The Sayers reso lution was one of the strongest ever adopted under similar circumstances. tie has been a member of the com mittee for twelve years, during two of which he was its chairman, and has left a record that any man would be justified in being proud of. Under the latitudo allowed in de bate when the House is in commit tee of tho whole, Representative Williams, of Mass., made a strong speech against tho annexation of tho Philippines; which he declared would bo a mistake whether viewed from a social, a political or a mate rial standpoint. Frequent applaus from his Democratic colleagues showed which way ,their sympa thies were. After stating that those islands should not be returned to Spain Mr. Williams said i "! should leave the islands where they were Uie day after Dewey's glorious victory at Manila.

It is nothing but a piece of bunting; ana wnen some one an nounoos that it must not come down, X care not how high lis sta tion, he says something unworthy of himself and his country. The flag should come down if it is right that it should do so, and the Amer ican people mu t pull it down We would not let any other country do it." Kef q Huoceaafal Domestic I Inanc- . ing. v "The secret of domestic finance is 10 make a little luoncy go a long way," writes Frances Evans in an article "About Men," in the Jan uary Ladies' Home Journal. "Tbe old axiom about saving the pennies and letting the pounds take care of themselves is not the natural policy of Americans ; only the frugal Scotch and French know that rule by heart. TBut women could learn it better than men, because their minds dwell more naturally upon little things. If they are rarely great financiers they are frequently successful small financiers. Make a woman responsible for an allow ance and she feels the interest of a junior partner ; pay her bills, and she is put on the footing of an in ferior. There is a feeling of igno miny about asking a man for car fare, fifty cents, five dollars, or even a hundred dollars, disagreeable be yond expression to a woman with any pride or independence. Now that women are thinking more for themselves than in the past, inde pendence is becoming naturally a part of their creed. This independ ence cannot be choked out," Bobbed the Gia. A startling incident, of which Mr. John Oliver, of Philadelphia, was tne subject, is narrated by him as follows : "l was in a most dread ful condition. My skin was almost yellow, eyes sunken, tongue coated, pain continued in back and aides, no appetite gradually growing weaker day by day. ' Three phy sicians had given me up.

Nothing Is more common than to scrape a fine, rich, muoky top soil into a high ridge, called a "turnpike," and on which wagons are expected to travel. The ma terial thus scraped into a deep and mel low bed would be very floe for the growth of oora, potatoes or white tur nips, but it makes tbe most intolerable roads. .When the rains soften It, the wheels out Into It to a depth of one or two feet, aocording to olrcumstanoee, and if the horses are able to get through It safely with an empty wagon at the rate of one mile an hour It la not unfre quently quite as much as they eaa eas ily perform. Exchange. , . , ... Wis Tlra Law. Wide tire lawa nave been passed in several states, but tbe laws aratiot the same in all the states which ba adopt ed them. The general purpart of each law Is to prescribe a minimum width of tire for vehicles of certain weights. They fixed penalties (or offenses against the law on the ooe hand, and, on the other hand, to reduce the burden of road taxes on the part of all who observe it In these laws the minimum width of tires of heavy vehicles Is generally fixed at four inobes and the maximum width a seven. Experiments have shown that to add to the width of a seven inch tire is of no advantage. . ajpisaaM I y i i i I r i MWll:2 tlit) liil.jnt i.li, .oV3..si'l -i) ii Lives at the present time or d bidding fair to be tbe birs of tbe future for per haps generations, with but little if any change.

Two bodies are used, one .over the other, for extracting. The upper story contains eight frames and is the same In everyrespect as the brood chamber. These two stories are used also,- or at wast should be used, in building up strong colonies in spring preparatory to the honey harvest A single story is not of sufficient capacity to contain strong colonies or. is not large enough to breed up extremely strong oolonies and contain tbe necessary amount of stores that such oolonies should have on hand at this period of the season. By the use of two stories thus almost dou ble the strength of oolonies may be at tained prior to the honey harvest and this always means an increase in the same proportion to the honey crop. Oomb honey for use In the apiary is also secured in this way and a reserve of it may be kept on hand for the bees when at any time they need it. and it is a very small per cent of hives that do not need frames of good sealed honey given them in spring and during 'the time tbey sre breeding rapidly.
