The old wsues of the blwdy shirt, the intimidation of the daries the resurrection of the Confederate brigadier and so on, are dead beyond question and the fact will soon , have to be admitted. The public mind is turn- ing from these worn-out arguments; anu demands others of vital interest. ;;Ahe suo8 that will now have to be present ed are those that bear upon the material Qtcrcsts of the country, upon the tAxitt, the currency and the advancement of trade, commerce, and manufactures. Whether the republican party ; will be equal to the demand remains ;io be seen. W ltnout the aid ot its soujt-hera contingent now rotting in decay can not be expected to maintain itself. It is most probable that it will fail now as t has failed hitherto to adjust itself to popular wants and as a party of 'spoils merely will go to wreck' in the wake Of republicanism hereabouts. Then will bje taken up the questions that realty con cern tho well-being of the countiy, the questions that the democratic party hu long been endeavoring to bring into due prominence and the land will be bene fited accordingly. The matter of the people's prosperity mast be the object of chief conaern henceforward and the questions that perished with the war or with the end oi the reconstruction period and on which along the republican party throve and -grevPfat willshae to be laid away forever. The masses of the people, at the north as well as at the south, are changing front on polit ical questions and the republican party w'ill have to accommodate itself to the change or go into permanent retirement. This alternative amounts, in 'Sffeot to the suggestion of an impo&sibUity, apd henoe the outlook for the republican party, north and south, is bad, decid edly. TBtXEIy AID FOCMB WAMtlHO. The disappearance of the Hpablicpn party from the south is just now being widely commented on. The organiza tion has "played out" in Georgia; It has long been defunct in South Caro lina; it amounts to nothing in Alabama and Mississippi and now in North Caro lina it decides to omit even the calling of a State convention. It is decidedly a 'dead corpus" and the fact is due to the other fact that the party yas never founded upon any lasting prinoiples. Its existence was due to no demand of the people. It was without usefulness. It conserved nothing that wait valuable and suggested nothing new tht was not dangerous. It took no hold upon the popular heart and never sought that for which alone parties are desirable the publio good. Its reason for' existence was simply that it might; rob the common treasury under the fortps of law and it his i 'goi the way of all bodies of plunderers. -It baa been t ied and found waniin'g. ! The history it has made is a blot upon the annals of tho country. It is a' record of official corruption, o'f political vio lence and deception that has rarely been equalled sii.ee the world began. It has reflected upon the whole lad, north south, east and west, and U is very gratifying now to realize that it is finally being ended by the will of the sovereign majority. The 'republican party is undoubtedly, so far as the South is concerned, in articulo mortis, and the death of so pestilent an organ ization will not be mourned by any one who is a patriot. I Tub plan of operation of the remains ofthe republican party in North Cafb- line is evidently to enoourairfc indeoend- entism so-called mi i:.L it . I 3 r ure on the independent j congress of Msj. Malone, id the 9th dis trict, of Col. Winston in the 5th, of Charles R. Jones in the 6th,, And on the reported purpose of B. Z. Linney in the 8 th district and of John Nichols in this to go to the same way. ''They -will seek in every way to increase this un wholesome crop and sO to injure the demc cratio party by brinkias about party disorganization in tho Pf ty ranks. Democrats therefore, and afi citizens who have the welfare of the t . il il. . A I State at heart, should not fail to treat these independents (as other than they are the posthumous bastards of the re publican party. That patty itself1 is dead, but it has left this illegitimate offspring behind, and seeks thorough its heirs and assigns to foist them on the publio. Let no such ruse be successful. Let as realize before it is too late that the pseudo independentism of the day is but a new form of tha old enemy that we have vanquished. Let is advance against v it with unbroken ranks, and crush it in its- inoipienoy, to the end .that the best interests of the State may remain in the keeping cf that party whioh the ptople have puton guard, and through which alone honesty and economy in the administration of public affairs oan be hoped for. , For seven years Capt. W. W Oia raway, popularly known as D. R. Wal ker, has' been penegrinating all through North Carolina in the interests of "the demooratio party and espiially a a staff representative of th Nxws ahd Obsbrvbr. For seven years he has been making the grand tour of the counties, and next to the biggest candidates in the field, he has always beenihe biggest man on the ground The f people ; all know him and like him and take ' an interest in his welfare, and from Cur rituck to Cherokee they will be glad to learn that his arduous party service a as been rewarded, through he efforts ot Gen. Ransom, by an appontment as postomoe inspector, a position he will til with tffioienoy and credit. His as signment to duty is at Chicago, and we hone that his duties will always - keep him in pleasant places. Wherever" he goes his many friends among he patrons of the Nswa amp OBSCBVsi, will frish him success equal to his merit. We,, also learn that the internal revenue collector, of this district has teuUeiod to Capt Charles D. Myers, the 1 piaco bow held by Msj. MoXSammjl ; Thb trial of the anarchists in Chicago proceeds, the arguments to the jury be ing continued. Mr. Zeisler, of counsel for the defense, said in the course of his remarks, that the defense, before finishing their case, would show that the police men the principal witnesses for the State, Were not heroes, bat knaves, led on by the most cowardly knave who ever, held a publio position. He con tended that no principal had been shown, and no f connection established between Schnaubelt, the alleged bomb-thrower, and the' so-called conspiracy. The case will probably vgo to the jury Wed nesday or Thursday. . if those anarchistic rogues escape punishment, the cause of justice will suffer seriously, and the Whole country will feel the effect of suoh failure to do what is right. Hubkrt O. Thompson, it appears, had a hand with Squire and Flynn in the scheme for the deception of the New York publio, but died before the scheme was laid bare. Henoe, it is suggested that his death was hastened bj his own hand. Ttie Haprcmt Court. Correspondence ot The Newt and Obserrer. Nothing, since the death of James A, Garfield, has so excited oar people the recent funeral notice to Judges Smith and Ashe of the supreme court of North Carolina. Two men, in the full enjoyment of vigorous health, without a rent or threadbare stitch in their mental ca pacities, indicted and arraigned before the publio to show cause why, by rea son, Of their age, their mantles, like Elijah's shall not desoend to other and vounfrer shoulders. If history records a parallel ease I have hot yet turned the page. It is a subject that concerns every oitisen of Noith Carolina. It is one that every one should take home to himself and view not as a lawyer, doctor, merchant, farmer, mechanieor in any other capacity except as an American citixan, like Clay for Webster, from a national standpoint, Turn these two men out for no other cause than that set forth, and its exam ple will be felt sooner or later through out the land. There is nothing that gives so high a tone of respectability to the heads ef families, states and na tions as intellectual old age. There seems to be a fear on the part ol these advocates of younger men in office that we may have a republican Governor before the, end of the next eight years. This may be so and doubt less will unless we greatly meud our oast and present wars. In 1874 and .1876 the political battles of the State were fought directly against il . . a 1 .1 I'eans had on the supreme and circuit xne great numoer oi juages we repuoii- court benches, and the general extrava gance in the administration of our State government. If I mistake not, from the legislature of 1878 to the last one the cry has been increase the judges for both supreme I and circuit oourts. The lastlegislature I increased the judges of the circuit court against the popular will of two-thirds , of the voters "of North Carolina. If any one doubts this statement then let him get the question before the people. Legislators may claim that tney are in accord with their constituents on this question. I have talked with several hundred Voters and not one have I met, outside of lawyers, ami not all of them, who lavored tho increase. And now since age has become a crime in office in our State, how long will it be before it is punishable with death? Let us xeep boys in their proper places most of them in the corn and I cotton fields and go back to the demo- I cratio platform of 1876, upon which Ynoe rode rough shod over Settle into lit. n -L T.j.

He ia never I. , 1 . - . ..i seen prior to nominating conventions, charging up and down, the road and across the oountry as though he was tho bearer of a warrant issued from the eourt of Heaven for the arrest of the devil, who had broken loose from his moorings.: With all this his politics are written upon his face so indelibly that no one dare ask Ifm what they are. In 1861, when the elements were draped with the clouds that were .gath ering for the diaaolutionjpf Lbs union and the m utter ings of their thunders were tolling the death of the nation in the land of John C. Calhoun, no man north or south, east or west, suffered more at heart for what was coming than Thos. S. Ashe. I remember seeing judge Ashe one morning standing not a great distance from the first company that left our county for the war, and I watohed him as his eyes ran up and down the line whioh was filled with ' the youth and bloom of the county. I saw his manly form give way as this thought rushed up on his brain : how many are there who either know or think but little more of what is to come than Isaac, who assited his father in bearing -the wood to the top of the mountain whioh was to -kindle the fire upon which his i body was to be immolated t I saw his manly form give way as he turned to enter his office, where in si lence and alone I have reason to believe he gave vent to the feelings of his heart, like a young mother over her first born. Thi i was not from fear or weakness, but the sudden realisation of the blood stained future, like Caesar when he saw the attitude ef Brutus, whioh was too much for the strong man. Possessed of deep feelings of honesty and justice, combined with the execu tive will-force of Andrew Jackson, no one need fear his want of meroy or doubt bis courage to declare his honest convictions, though standing solitary aadaicse. The poor hare never gn i i i . fered at his bands on account of their poverty, aeither have alms been denied when asked him.
