Thi argument in favor of a lower rate
of interest seems irresistible wfien we
have regard to the decline in the value
of articles and in the ost of ivingi
This decline is substantially an increase
in the purchasing power of money, so
that the interest on a hundred dollars
now at the rate of six per eent yields a
much in provisions, clothing, etc , '.as
the interest on that sum did at eight per
eent last year. This decline, we think;
has oome to stay. It is not merely tern

values. Interest should oome down in
the like proportion. Bat : we will nd

j Another day of special thanksgiviog
has oome to us, and again we stand
amiied, if we are sensible beings, at the
manifold blessings that have been show
er9d upon us. We have teen blessed
in our harvests, in our homes and in
ur health; we have been blessed in our
business ventures, in our government
and in the absence of plague and pesti
lence, j We havd been spared many
evils whioh for insoratable reasons have
been visited upon near neighbors. We
are free to a great extent, we in N rth
C rolina, we mean, from the social agita
tionf, the unrest, the dissatisfaction
whioh seriously threaten the existence of
peace in many prts of the country. We
are favored of the earth, the sky and
the water, and our land gives her in
crease without stint and with oompva
4vely little labor on our part. We are
still in 'the main an agricultural people
and enjpy the happiness of a life near to
nature,
. We continue highly favored indeed,
and the man who does not realiso this,
ho is not prompted to give thanks f r
the blessings we enjoy, is but little
higher than the beasts.
Let us all, then, give thanks on this
Thanksgiving Day like rational beings,
jay fully yet soberly, and in the fear of
God. .
: Let us manifest our thankfulness by
devout soknowledgemtnt oi the Creator,
and by j distributing of our abundance
to the nositi's of our poorer brethren
Let us remember in our charities tbe
orphans of the State who are tpciallj

cence,, 8t. John's hospital. So will we

day of our own necessity. ,r
oust statu re "aBovr rsEioH rm.
The decision of the suprem9 court of
the United States in the ease of the
Wabash, St. Louis & Paoifio B B. vs
the State of Illinois we apprehend has a
bearing on our State statute regulating
freights. That statute is general in its
terms and can hardly be construed to
apply merely to contracts whioh are to
be entirely executed within the State of
North Carolina. The words of our
statute are:
"It shall be unlawful for any railroad
corporation operating in this State to
obarge for the transportation of any
freight of any description over its road
a greater amount as toll or compensa
tion than shall at the same time be
charged by it, for the transportation of
an equal quantity of the same elass of
freight transported in the same diree
ties over any portion of said railroad of
equal distance."
If the statute did not apply
to contracts to haul merchandise
from one State to another, the decision
referred to would not affect it; but as
the statute is sufficiently comprehensive
to embrace what is ealled inter-State
commerce, it is likely that it -would be
construed to apply to inter-State com
merce 1 and if eo, under this new decision
al .tt:.j a 1-4 ,-.
would be held unconstitutional.
The Illinois statute passed on in that
caw was substantially in the same words
as our i own statute, and was oonstrued
by the 'supreme court of Illinois to ex
tend to carriage, a part of whioh was to
be t fleeted beyond the limits of Illinois,
and it was, therefore, held to be null
and void.
The supreme court of the U. S. says;
' 'If thelllinois statute oould be oonstrued
to apply exolusively to contracts for a
carnaire whioh begins and ends within
the State, disconnected from a continu
ous) tranportation through or into other
8ties, there does not seem to be any
difficulty in holding it to be valid. The
reason for this is that the charge and
the-' aotnal transoortation in snob cases
areiexolttf ivelj confined to the limits of
the; territory of the State and is not com
merce I among the States or inter-State
oo aimer oe, but is exclusively commerce
wftfun the State."
The Court then says :
'It beoomcs therefore necessary to
enquire whether the charge exacted
from the shippers in this case was
oharge for inter-State transportation or
was sufceptible of a division whioh
would allow so muoh of it to attach
to commerce strictly within the State
and so much more to commerce in other
States. The transportation, whioh is
the aubjeot matter of the contract, being
the point on whioh the discussion of the
ease must rest, was it a transportation
limited to the State of Illinois, or was
it a1 transportation covering all the line:
between uuman in the one ease, and
Peiria: in the State of Illinois, and the
city of New York?"
After a lengthy discussion of the cases
leretofore deoided, the oaurt holds tha
the provisions of law trs a regulation
of commerce, and says: ''As restricted
to a transportation whioh begins and
ends within the limits of the State, it
may bj very just and equitable, and it
oertainy is the province df the State
legislature to determine that question.
But when it is attempted to apply to
transportation through an entire series
of States a principle of this kind, and
each one of the States shall attempt to
establish its own rates of transportation,
its own methods to prevent discrimina
tion' in fates, or to-permit it the delete
rious inflaenee upon the freedom of
commerce among the States and upon
the transit of goods through these States
c&nnbt ibe overestimated. And the
court ads:
"And if it be a regulation of com
motio, is we think we have demonstra
ted it is, it must be of that national char
acter, and the regulation oan only ap
propriately exist by general rules and
oiineiples which demand that it shall be
tone by the Congress of the United
3'ais under the commerce clause of the
Constitution."
It is true that there is a dissenting
opinion whioh accords with the opinion
we have heretofore entertained in regard
to the matter to the effect that until
Confront acts in the matter the 8tates
may( exercise the power of regulating
commerce: but ihe opinion of the ma-j-r
ty of the court is against that posi
tion, and the effact of it we fear u to
render unconstitutional our statute on the
jubjecs, whoeo term are eo broad and
comprehensive as to include inter-state
commerce along with traffio exolusively
within North Carolina.
Certainly, so far as our statute applies
to inter-State commerce it is void and in
operative under this decision, and if it
is so brovi as to embrace inter state
oommerce as well as purely State traffio,
it would seem to be unconstitutional, and
would need to be re-en te ted in another
form so as to oorfiie its operation to
stte traffio, an I thus avoid being declar
ed unconstitutional when brought before
any oourtof jidioature; for the decision
of the Supreme Court of the United
States is final as to constitutional ques
tions.

Cor. of the News and Observer.
Royal Marx Stsamship "Adriatio,"
Nov. 9, 1886.
I feel sure that I have many dear
friends in North Carolina who will be
pleased to hear something of my move
ments in this journey across the Atlan
Itio - I therefore will begin today a let
ter whioh I can complete as we go for
ward and . have it ready to mail at
Queenstown, as we pass on toward Liv
erpool. We left New York on Thurs
:day last, November 4th, at 11a. m.
Large numbers of my own friends and
the friends of other passengers, came
'down to the ship between 10 and 11 to
say good bye, and bid us God speed.
As we moved out from the wharf into
the river and turned south toward Sandy
jHook, we looked back upon a crowd of
smiling faces standing on the wharf and
waving their hats and their handker
chiefs, as we steamed away from them.
We reached Sandy Hook before 1 o'clock,
and as we swept out into the broad At
lantic we were delighted to find the sea
so calm that we had no more no
tion than would be experienced in
crossing the Hudson river from Jersey
City to New York And, wonderful to
add, the same condition of things has
continued ever since. As I write, this
afternoon, not a white cap is to be seen,
as far as the eye can reach. The sea is
perfectly calm, and brilliantly blue,
with the sun shining out in glorious
splendor. Every day has been lovely,
and only for a few hours on Sunday,
Mm: iuAiwij, wo uau -auy fata
And that was speedily followed by a
fine starlight evening, with the moon's
clear rays brightening everything
around us. Our ship, the "Adriatio,"
kt the White 8tar line, is not one of
these overgrown steamers, but is quite
large enough, is solidly built, and is
one of the smoothest running vowels 1
$ave ever met with. The cabins, too
have none of that s toffy smell, so com
mon in ocean steamers, but the air is
pure and sweet, with the most perfect
ejstem of ventilation. Everything, too,
is so scrupulously clean and th service
so prompt and courteous that nothing
further in that direction could be de
sired. And then the table is all that
the most exacting oould demand. I
was surprised to see the luxuries whih
day by day Were brought forth from the
ice closet and all in the most perfect
condition. And as the crowning glory
of all, we. have in Captain Parsell one
of the most charming commanders to
be found in any sea. First of all, he
U a remarkably skilled and accomplished
seaman. And then he is a man of un
usual culture and extensive reading,
aj most genial and instructive talker,
and a noble speolmen of a truly high
toned Christian gentleman. It is my
good fortune to have a seat at his elbow
at meal time, while in his little deck
cabin I have enjoyed nearly every day
an hour of delightful social intercourse
with him. And we have also among
the passengers quite a large proportion
of educated, refined and cultivated peo
ple. We have only about fifty saloon
passengers on this trip, and with scarce
aoj exception they are gentlemen and
ladies with whom it is a real pleasure
to associate. Among them, and sitting
near me at the table is the Bev. Dr. H
Mi Field, editor of the ' Evangelist",
injNew York, a Presbyterian clergy
man of very high culture, an author of
considerable note, and one in whose so
ciety I have found no common enjoy
ment. His wife and two nieoes are with
him, and all partake of his attractive
qualities. The doctor presented me
with a small volume from his pen Just out
of ! the press, whioh, I have read with
profound satisfaction. The title of it is
"Blood is Thioker than Water", in
whioh he gives a most beautiful and elo
quent description of a visit to our South
o' n elties,: and whioh I am sure every
iodthern man will read with thrilling in
t vest.. I am now reading another of ) if
works, "The Greek Islands, aid Turkey
after thefWar," which has alUhe intern t
of a fascinating romanoe. J was invited
by I Capt. Parsell to hold service last
Sunday in the saloon. The day was so
calm and quiet that nearly every saloon
passenger was present, together with a
large number of well-dre6sed persons
from the steerage. I read the morning
srrviee of the church of Eogland, ana
in the prayer for "Her most graoious
Majesty, Queen Victoria," I, oompre-
hended also the "President of the United
8tates and all others in authority." At
my request ir. Field read the lessons,
and. his reading was most admirable and
impressive. I preached a short sermon,
which was preoeded and followed by a
hymn, very heartily joined in by all.
The whole service seemed to be highly
appreciated, and there was a special
emphasis in the "JLm" which closed
that beautiful prayer, in which we sup
plioated Him "who alone spreadeth out
the heavens and ruleth the raging of
the sea," to take us under His Al
mighty protection. Nor can I doubt
that the same prayer off red up by so
many loving hearts on shore has availed
to draw down upon us the blessing of
Go!
At 12 o'clock, today, we found our
run for the preceding twenty-four hours
had been 350 miles, the largest number
yet made in any day since we left port.
If the same lovely weather continues
we hope to reach Queenstown on Friday
afternoon and Liverpool on Saturday.
But I must stop now until tomorrow.
Wednesday, Nov. 10th. Last night
we had a gorgeous sunset, and later the
moon was .riding the sky in majestic
splender. The air too was soft, and
the ladies on deck were jubilant and
happy. This morning when I rose, as
usual, at 7, for my sea-water bath, J
looked out upon a dark and dismal ar
ray of cloud, wbioh gave every promise
of rain. The wind, too, was from the
northeast, and blowing stronger than
hitherto. But two hours later saw the
olouds breaking up and the sun shining
out in a most encouraging way. ihe
wind is giving us a little more motion
so that when the table was set for
lunoh, the steward thought it most pru
dent to put on the rack, whioh made
their appearance for the nrst time dur
IDE the vovsire. The observation at
loou showed the last twenty-four hour's
run to be 342 miles. This is doing very
well, considering that for the previous
six hours, we bad a stronger wind to
contend witb, and which wai nar'y
ahead. When going to my bath thu
morning, I was rallied by one of the
gentlemen moving in tham direction,
with the salutation, "Wh, Bishop, you
aro behind time; what is the matter this
morning.?" To whioh I replied, "Oh
no, I oame the instant the steward oalhd
me, and he is always prompt to the
hour." "You are quite mistaken." said
my friend," for it is nearly 7.30. I was
still inoredulous, but learned later that
the steward had slightly overslept him
self. By the way, this early sea bath is not
only a great luxury but a wonderful
promoter of health and strength After
making my toilet, and taking a few rap
id turns npon the deck, how grandly
does one feel, and how pleasant the
sound of the gong whioh summons us to
breakfast! Oat npon these lszy louts
who sit up till after midnight, playing
cards and drinking 'punches, and then
erawl out of bed at 9 o'clock, only in
time to get a little breakfast before the
table is cleared ! Surely those who re
sist these temptations and lead a life di
rected by the laws of health, are the
ones who best erjoy the blessings so
Dent noently bestowed upon us. But stop
I am not writing a sermon, and so I will
leave my friends to draw for themselves
the moral. 1 went on deck again to
night, and while the wind was a little
stiff, and the ship not quite so steady.
it was a pleasure to walk the deck, with
the moon, now at its full, shining out so
brightly.
SWV. ar 4 d . . mmm
xnursuay, no v. nth. still very
pleasant, and with rather less motion
than yesterday evening. No racks were
are ecioying another very agreeable day
It is cloudy, but the clouds are broken,
and at tunes the sun breaks out quite
cheerily. The captain tells me that our
quiet peaceful passage Is quite phenom
enal, as he never knew saoh a passage
in the month of November. It is a week
today since we left New York, and we
have not yet encountered any rough
weather. The wind last night from the
northeast retarded us a little, but we
made, for the twenty-four hours up to
iz today, 324 miles.
At 9 30 p. m. the wind veerel more
to the north, and while helping our
speed, gave us an unpleasant rolling
motion. Walking the deck I found a
little diffioult.-
Friday, November 12ih. We had
stiff breese from the north all night,
whioh continues this morning, giving
us more of a sea than on any '-previous
day. I found the.racka on the break
fast tables and the rolling motion has
thinned out the ranks of the ladies. But
while a little rough, the day is very
pleasant and we ire getting along admi
rably. Oar run at noon indioatesu347
miles for the previous twenty-four hours
We expect to reach Qieenstown this
evening by 9 o'clock, when we can drop
off our letter to be taken up by Che first
steamer. 1 expect to tpend Sunday in
Liverpool, go to London on Monday and;
to Paris the following Monday, the 22 1
0i Thursday, the 25ui, I expect to
oonseorate the new and beautiful Church
of the Holy Trinity, and hold a confir
mation in it the Sunday after. A
I hope you can make out my writing

no time for copying these hurried lines

Many a well-meaning man has been mim
ed before now, because he failed to take his
wife's advice. Some friend may hare persua
ded him to go into a business venture which
his wife's finer instincts told her was not a
good one, but he neglected her suggestions
and lost his money. Many a man baa pooh
poohed at his wife's suggestion that he take
better car of his health, and only when he
has been brought to a bed of sickness or per
haps of death, has he seen bow sincere and
good that advice was. Many men have felt
a bad taste in the month, a doll pain in the
head, a lack of energy through the entire
lystem, sluggish liver, no appetite and yet
have neglected to take their wife's advice to
drive away these evils. They sought a re
newal of energy by drinking or allowing
these symptoms to ran into disease and dis
ease into death, when it might all have been
avoided had they taken their wife's advice.
A well-to-do resident of Baltimore who
keeps a grocery store on Eutavr Street, nev
er went home to his family at night without
feeling all tired out, with no appetite for his
Supper and no taste for enjoyment with his
family. His wife's quick instincts noticed
his gradual decline and she urged him to
take a preparation for such troubles, " which
she had heard many of her friends and neigh
bors speak most highly of. He ridiculed the
idea ; said he was only feeling a little poor
ly, and would be better in a few days ; but
in a few days he was worse and in a few
weeks he was in bed and the doctor shaking
his head most solemnly. Then he consent
ed to take his wife's advice and in less than
ten days he was back to business, was strong
and vigorous, and has been kept in perfect
health ever since, wholly by the use of Voli
na Cordial. This remarkable preparation,
which has awakened such interest in the lo
calities wnere it bas been best known seems
to be working af wonderful change in the
health and energy jof the people who are
weakened by disease, overburdened by care,
or broken down by overwork. It is reoomend
ed by the greatest scientific authorities the
beet tonic and gentle stimulator known, and
the wonderful results it is acheiving, prove
that these recommendations are most true.
