I I " THBsTTATgVAiKg'i " Oa Tuesday of this weok, the Btate agricultural fair will open, -and there are reasons for beliaving that ft :will really be one Of the most Buooesafal ever held. Great improvements have een made at the grounds, and in all departments of the n!orprise the wisdonj which comes with experience onlv has been applied, to the advantage of agriculture and of all the interests pertaining" thereto. The result will, we have do doubt, be as fine, an . exhibition as, any State can make, g North Carolina is almost er elosively as yet an agrijtiltural 8tato. Most of her energies are applied to the culture tof the soil and much of her best though! is directed toward improving the Ways and means of doing this. ; la . proportion as we increase our knowledge of I the' ground with which : ; we have to deal and leafn better how to make it servo us to,, tk) best ad vantage we will .prosper, of course, as aJ whole people, and it behoove us therefore to lend all -encouragement to'ithe efforts to spread l'.'ht mads by thq' agricultural society. ; The way to do this is' in the firs tr pUce, sead ep ejoens of our best products to be exhibited, in order that others' may see the results of our own skill and experience' and in the teoohd place, to go ourselves to the fair in forder that we may see what others' hive been able to accomplish The ifirel requirement named las by this time; we hope, been oomplfed with by every patriotic farmer and. artisan and manufacturer in the Stftef and it now only remains for tbe people to e ma ... ito see what bias been g .thercd together Every farmer, par-i uoalarly, it seems to us,, add every eiti dd ic&aed otherwbe than; iu agri oulture who is interested in the prcgrfss of the Stato, owes it to himlself to come tj the fair, if he can at all a-ffrd to do s. Kvery firmer, too, owes it to his bo j, who has worked hard fall the year ti help imiket the crop, to bring him along, ve hioi a holiday, ppijn his eyes to the possibilities of the 8wito anl cf the noble cnl'iag to whioh he is being reared.

T; n -i should come who can cope to the an nual gathering here at th capitel, to be cheered by the meeting wjth friends and relations and brightened by oontaot with ; new ideas, i Nora Carolinians should meet as one bi family and, comparing notes, giving in experience and marking results, obtained by efifort iu the west, in the east ajad in the oen tro, learn from each olh wh'at is;,b(at to be done in tbe future and take in, with hoads all together, f hat the world beyond our borders has t$ teach. There is everything to induoe ai attendance on the fair by every citise of the State who can by hook or by Irook manage to come. We hope therefore to see the number of visitors larger han ever be fore. 1 : A peculiar featuro ofi the fair; this year will be the oonventiln of Northern born settlers that is tol say, of those from the North who havef already made their homes among us, nd thoso who are thinking of ooming to the State aid pasting their lots with cua. This- will prove one of the best possible advertise ments of the State's sources, and the advantages offer here to men of means, energy and character whoare looking for hemes. Even if the "convention were nt now to be held, the information which has already gone abroad as a result Of the project, of the natural advantage! North Caro lina possesses and ofihe feeling of ab solute contentment whichl exists among the Northern born citiionl of the State, could be; shown ; to be f inoalcuUHle bent fit. We look for grat good to to sVlt from the convention! Mny new; piper men will be amcjig thoso who will come to visit us, and! they will see what we aro sure wit open their eyes. The seales of miiinderstandihg will fall, and j thcy wUl 'pfe ceive the old State in all the grandeur; of her unsurpassed though still undeveloped sgr'oultural, mineral and forest wealth, j Thisf pioture they will present on their return home to their hundreds of thousands of readers, and it cannot fail to produce, an effect anion e the crowded peopled of the North that will redound to the advantage;of the State. Men of character, industry and means will be drawn to our plains, Our hills,: our forests acl our waters and will help us to unlock the stores of wealth hidden therein, laey will learn the blessings of olimate ie enjoy, and, understanding our character and diapo tions better, will bo elad to make their homes with us and work with us in all things for the good of th whole Stae, No exaggerations will be laoed : before them. They will see for themselves the products of the State yand they will near rrom tne lips oi rsoriaera-oora eit;ams what it is for Northerners to live in North Carolina, f hey will also see for themselves much of the territory of the State. They willJ in short: be told a true, unvarnished tale and their conclusions in the tiiht of facts eannot fail to be favorable to our land, i Hence it is that we expect ffreat rood, as we have said, from their 0 & t4 observations. May itheyf find the old State as pleasant as we lave found' it and as our fathers found! it before us They will oertainly be welcomed by all North Carolinians hav&gl the progress and development of the tate at heart. h BKSAWOB VllCa'S EpECCS. We were glad to fee a arge gathef- insr veeterdav to hear the address of Senator Vance. The day! as Chairman Battle said in his introductory remarks, was the busiest day of th busiest week of the busiest month of he year, yet Metropolitan hall, in whfch the meet. ing was held, was full. The fact is an indication not only of th popularity pi the distinguished gentleman who spoke but of tho interest felt by fall classes in the great questions now sibon again to be passed upon. The; address, of course, was admirable, beeauselit was from Vanoe, but it had certain features which made it peculiarly forcible. Not only was the contrast between I the extra va gance and corruption of rlpnbl'ctn ad ministrations and the ecoepmy and re? form of democratic. Srule presented as Vanoe only can present lit, but the money question of ; the country was made clear to the simplet mind, and the koneity, patrtotisn and in telligence! of our ; deniooratie ad ministration so held p that all could see it. It was a pwerfol argu ment in favor of standing! by the great party that has done so mujh already for the relief of the people, anofjthat, if main tained, will undoubtedly I restore, full prosperity to tbe country, simply be- oauso it is tne party wh&oh seers to advance the interests of the whole people. It was a : rebuke to thoso democrats who would belled away by the false trails left by socalled independ ents, and by local issues trhiou sxe as nothing when compared to the great interests involved in the success or fail ure of the democratio party! It was an urgent, earnest, unanswerable appeal for demccratio unity now that we are about to enter another politioal battlefield We trust it will be hecdedjas it deserves to be. i A Strang- PltBOiona. A 8T0RT THAT SOUNDS tlXJt J VA1XT TALI. Charlotte Chronicle. j 1 Citix?ns in the southeastern portion of the city have witnessed for throe weeks. cr more a very strange phenomenon, nd it is to the fffoot that e very after noon at 3 o'clock there is la rainfall inJ one particular spot, whioh last for half an hour, 'i his sounds lik a big yarn, yet those who do not; behave it can see for them 'elves if they - will visit the plaoo. Th-;re aro, two trees, and be tween these trees, at tbe hour named, there falls a geatle rain, like a shower iu the summer when the cuh is shining, and this has 'been witnessed everyday by tho people in the neighborhood for the past throe weeks. The )d:es in that peighborhooi have beoome very much f xeroiscd over it, and havf spread out cloths in order to test it, ajfd they have had to take them in soaking?) wet. Erery one who has seen thii strano phenome ncn testifies to its trathfalnps, and it is ii.decd a 'singular thing. We onnot explain it It appears to b two weep ing trees, and why th?y should weep pr'clsely at 3 o'ciook Iwe afo unable to cxjlain. We most get or acientuts to invesTtigato the subject, j I SIIATOB VABCI MAX IS A CHARACTIRI8TICALLT ADJHBABL1 ; SPXXCn AT MITROPOLITAN HALt. : There is a magie in the very name of Vanoe, and when it was announced that tbe genial and beloved . Senator would speak here, that was flffioient to at tract a crowd which fi'lel Metropolitan baU, though the honr vis noon and the day tho busiest in ail the week. It was an audience composed of 'city and coun try people and of course the Senator's speech deeply interested every man in it. Among the audience sat Governor Scales and a number of other prominent gentlemen were present. Senator Vanoe was, as a countrymen neatly put it, "the same old Zeb." His honest, kindly faoe beamed a welcome beneath his hair now almost white. There was health, vigor, power in every lineament, and the most casual observer could see that this beloved son of the Old North State was yet good for many years of active life. At a few minutes after 12 o'clock ohairman B. H. Battle intro duced Senator Vanoe. It was the sig nal for a burst of cheers. CIS OPINING BIMAKXS. ' Senator Vanoe expressed his gratifica tion at meeting his people ana at the large attendance. He went at once into his; subject. The circumstances under whioh he spoke were different from those - formerly. Formerly the demo cratic: party was a minority party, now it was the majority party, before this the republican party was on trial. It was found guilty in 1884. ; Now the democratio party is on trial, and it remains to be seen whether it will receive the approbation of the people for fulfilling all the promises it made; It is just to remember that, strictly speaking, the democratio party is not responsible for failure to pass any law. Heretorc and now it does not con trol all the law-making power, for the Senate is republican. Therefore no law has been passed that did not meet tho views of our adversaries.. The party promised mueh: people who wish votes are alwajs liberal. He himself had made many promires, for he did not intend to let a few promises come be tween him and eleotion (laughter.) He spoke of the democratic j romisee; that soldiers should be withdrawn from the South, that public education should be revived, that publio improve ments should be put on foot, that hon esty and virtue should again prevail. How long was it after the democrats had come into power before peaoe was re stored, the habeas corpus restored,, the State government put upon an honest and pure basis, taxation reduced, .the latter from 80 to 25 cents, with a pres ent1 further downward tendency? The republicans built not the fraction of an inch of railway; while under the demo cratic control of affairs; 1,000 miles hate been built. The democrats prom ised to ; a ; BV.V1T8 THB KPCCATIONAL INTXHISTS which the republicans had! let die, and they have done it. Such progress, such advance in this respect was never known, and now 300.- 000 children are gathering the fruit of knowledge in the publio schools. : Half of these are colored children, the chil dren of those who had. been taught by their radical friends that the democrats would put them back into slavery and that they ought to be willing to pay con siderable "boot" to be at the devil if the democrats got into power (laughter ) He parsed on to speak of the fraudulent bends which the republicans had issued; a monument for all time to their ras cality. Now the debt is put on a safe, a just basis, tan caxDiT cr thb stats bistcbbd and this grand commonwealth can hold up its head as proudly as any in the world. He never ex pected, to see such a wonderful state of thugs, sanguine as he was of democratic honesty ana fidelity. He said that in the faoe of all these glories of demo cratio rule some people wished to go back, to return, to those days whioh but a brief space of time sines all men spoke of with horror and indignation. For his part he would never go back to sueh a state of affairs without a fight, unless tho republicans got right back" where they were in 1876, when the democrats had them down." He referred again to the MIRACLI WHICH THB nXXOCBZTIO FARTT HAD WROUGHT in bringing this State from the depths of despair into the brightness of good fortune; from the lowest depths of polit ical impurity into such k condition of political honesty as makes North Caro lina the envy of many of its sister com monwealths. It was miraculous, noth ing else. Yet all these marvels had been wrought at constantly lessening oost to the people. It was that party Whioh had wrought these changes: and brought about suoh an A jtNCBBASa IN THB PUBLIC WBALIH. In 1870 only $120,000,000 was the total of the publie wealth, while in 1884 it was $209,000,000 I Could any mah: be to blind as to assert in the faoe of this fact that the democratio party had not done wonders in the State, and could any sane man desire to fly in the face of all these things and return to the. old days of poverty and fraud. ; NATIONAL AFFAIRS. : ' He pissed on to speak of national af fairs, and to show what the democrats had done in this matter. It had been charged by the republicans that the democratic party had pledged itself to repeal the internal revenue law. It was an unqualified falsehood. Ia no democratio national platform was a plank of that character inserted. The nearest to it was in 1876 when it was shii that the internal revenue taxes were war taxes, and ought to be re moved. The democratic party of this 8tate had pledged itself to work to se cure the repeal of the law. Kvery North Carolinian in congress had voted every time to repeal the law. T AT HAD OLBAB 00N8CIBN0BS ON THB t CBJxor. : This action of the Stato convention bad donbtless led to the radical asser tion that the pledge to repeal the law had boon made. He referred to the fact that many of the democratic mem bers of Congress from the North did toot take the satoe view of the internal revenue matter as that taken by the Southern poople. The excess of taxation Is nowglO.000,000 a month, and if the internal revenue taxes were aboliahed. I ... i . . h .1 , , St. i i - there would yet be enough to carry on the government. He believe 1 that if it was desired to raise moro revenue ny the tsriff.it would be necessary to lower the tariff; for now it was so high that it absolutely prohibited the importation of many articles, so that the country derived no revenue at all frcm these articles. THB MVIKDR TAX IS A BUC Of THB WAR. an odious tax, and he againdeclarcd that tho domcoratio party was not amenable for any failure to repeal it He asked where would ; dissatisfied demoorats.who were angry at the failure to abolish the internal revenue would gc? Would they go to the republican party 1 What had that party done for the measure. The republicans bad done nothing; a mere handful of them had been In favor of the repeal of the law. Stand fast; stay where you are. HOLD UP THB HANDS Ot THB DEMOCRATS. Continue to take every step looking to the repeal of the odious law and by and by, by theso constant 'efforts, the changes so desired by the people will be effected. He spoke of the WONDBBVUL PURIFICATION OV THB REVBNCS 8XRVICB by the democratio party as proof that that pcrty had done the utmost possible thing for the peoples' benefit. He passed On to speak of the action On the tariff in Congress, and showed by the vote on Morrison's resolution how the majority of the democratio party had attempted to keep its promises, solemnly made. But Randall, and a ; few men who like him had solemnly promised to do what was pledged at Chicago, bolted and refused to keep their promises. But as ito the republican party, ociy two of its representatives had voted to ; rednoe the tariff. ; The only thing to be done was to voto for ; democrats, making them prqmise to make every effort to reduce the tariff. Who but an insane man would leave a party most -of whose members were earnestly striving to repeal a law he wished abolished, to go to a party none of whoso members either desired or sought to repeal it. A PLAIN ITATBMINT. He said the demccratio party was in a critical condition; there is no doubt of that. It has forgotten that it Las an enemy. It revels in the wealth of of fioe. A wise policy has been pursued by! the republican party which had for some time refused to put out a ticket and when it did put out one, it was rather worse than none at all. All over the State ; LIT TLB LOCAL DiESXNBIONS were effecting nd setting at odds the demoi ratio party. The county govern ment question, long ago settled, and settled for all time, was even Bought to be used as a measure of creating differ ences. I he fenoe law, eounty taxation, even the building of a bridge, were nsad as levers. How absuad are these small issues, as compared with the BXCBBBITt OV A PURB DXMOCRATIC GOTIBN M1NT, such as is. now en j oj ed. He referred to the national unity now prevailing, and said the democratic party had come into power in the midst of the greatest finan cial depression known in fifty years. Of course there were some people who ex pected that tbe mere change of admin istration would bring about 5HB MOST BXTRl MB PROS PBRITY. But it takes time to do these things, to t Sect these changes. There are many things to be overoeme. He charged that the great financial depression now prevailing Was due to the action of the republicans. England had degraded silver, and the republican party had in 1673 followed British methods, and by the grossest fraud in wording a statute had demonetised silver, , This was the cause cf the long continued depression. This demonetisation was a direet stab at the poor man, whose currency ia sil ver. In depreciating silver, wages had also been depreciated. The contrac tion of the currency which the degra dation of silver caused, fell with the utmost hardship upon the laboring man. In 1878 the people ! MAPI A DEMAND I0B 1 CUANOl, and $2,000,000 in silver was ordered to b coined monthly a mere' bagatelle. Yet in the face of the bill the Presidents and treasurers of the United States had steadily attempted to defy tbe law and ignore silver. They took every opportunity to say that silver would not circulate. How could it cir culate when the treasurer did not pay it ont, but paid out gold to: the bond holders? The United States had LKSS SPBCXB IN CIBCULiTlON than any nation in the world, only $4 ahead for its 60,000,000 people. All wages, al prices of commodities, are based upon the metallio currency in use, and the Same in the ease in the value of all property. This is one evil of a con tracted currency. Yet the republican party had for years labored steadily to reduce the volume cf the currency, to contract it; It is an i AN ATTXHPT TO DISGBACX LABOR. As a contrast, the democratic party had steadily sought to increase the vol ume of tbe currency, to a-i vanoe all the interests of the people The republi can party has constantly arrayed itsalf by the side of the great capitalists who steadily seek to contract the currency. He said the democratio party was just, and JUST TO ALL MEN. It favored ro claim; it sought to ad vanoo tie interests of all. It could i ot work in the interest of the Knights of Labor alone for instance. It is the party of the people, the common peo ple of the1 cc no try. It is tho repository of the ruhts of the people, and so it will -continue to be. All must only stand together and disregard the petty differences which tend to -separate the people. All must stick together and unite all our forces in behalf of the grand democratic party, whose methods and works show it to be the only true party of the people. SYSTEMATIC SWINDLING . He,said he wished he had time to tell how; the republicans had systematically swindled . the people; had made vast grants of the peoples' land?; had in every ; department sought to extract all tho money and leave things like a sucked orange empty. He spoke of what the dentooratio party had done to declare those land grants forfeited. Millions of acres of tho publie domain had boon thus secured to jho people. DITFXRMNCB OF OPINION. Senator Vanoe s a eortheai; thtt Lid be was a little of e w?s not exact'v pleased with some ings the Presidert bad done! He had disagreed with him as to silver, as to th p distribution of the surplus and as to ci pil "pervice matters. Uut that was a mere ffcrenoe of opinion. Tho President is an honest man, and tho best troof of his urity 18 that all the jobbers, and ringstr irs and thieves have been driven from W ashiogton and tho plaoes that once knew theso whelps now .

Nestled in the hills of Stanly, some thirty mi'es from the nearbst railroad station, lies tbe qui( tbut pleasant little town of Albemarle, Isolated though it be, there dwells not in North Caro lina a clever or more whole-souled people than are numbered among its in habitants. And just now they have a reasonable nope for an early connection .a . i . E i f . wun tne outsiae woria; tor the propor tion to build the South Atlantio and Northwestern railroad, the- road from Smith ville to Bristol, Tenni is agitating them. In fact the pad of November, besides giving Col. Rowland and the whole democratio ticket some 400 ma jority, the county will probably vote a hundred thousand dollars to aid in the construction of th:s very important line. This road only asks fifty thousand after the road has been oompleted to Albe marle, and the -other fifty thousand after reaching the further nd of the county So the people have no risk to run, ar d the bonds are to run forty years The road will add largely to the taxable property of the county, develop a fine section or the State J and bring to our own reaports a largely inereasd trade Mr. S. J. Pemberto l in his 'speech yes terday, devoted muoh of his time to an explanation and advocacy of the rail road. ! This is court week, the term hav ing begun Wednesday, his honor Judge Boy kin presiding, and Mj. Bingham attending to the interests of the State The rapidity with which Judge Boykin dispatches business is winning him gol den opinions, and his personal popu larity so quietly earned at home, fol lows nun in nis judicial travels over the State. , M, f The feature of the week was tbe speaking yesterday by the congressional candidates, (Jo la. .Rowland! and Jones, preceeded by Mr. Pjemberton, and Mr. Long, the candidate for solicitor in th's district. Judge Boykin adjourned court at noon to givi the speakers a full cuanoe. Mr. Jremtierton, who is the candidate for senator from this eounty and Columbus, opened tha discussion, and as I have stated dovoted mush of his time to an earnest advoeacy of the railroad. He simply concluded by stating that he was a candidate for the S nate, yielding mos i of histimoto the other speakers. Mr Long followed in aa earnest and eloqa ;nt appeal in be half of the democn.tio nominees, and especially the supreme and superior court judges. His speech was vigorous and Well received. The addresses of the comrressicnal ffladiatcriihen beiran. o o h r o w and here tho most interest was centered Col. Jones, he of tho lone star conven tion, opened the ball, and for an hour rehearsed his usual s eech against ring conventions, lawyer i, con at y govrn ment, democratic extravagance, and eight cent cotton. So few question) he discussed come withi i the province of a candidate for the fe eral house of rep resentatives, that people who only knew him as the editor of a daily ; paper are ammd at his obtuseness. He injeoted a little more spirit in his speeoU, however, than usual; the recul ; probably of bis recent letter from -Oliver Dockery, promising not to run. We had told him of Mayo's cindidioy.but he probably has not yet taken in the full effeot of this new departure By this time the crowd had reached so ne oight or nine hundred, and when 2ol. Rowland got up on the stand, a loud clapping of hands greeted him. Differing, as every speeoh of his does, from its predecessor, Col. Rowland discussed the' prominent issues of the campaign for an hour in his own peculiar luoid and earnest style. Frequently he was i a temp ted by ap plause, and the peopb showed in their countenances their oonfidenee and satis faction in their standard-bearer. Col.
