We note with great j pleasure the '"probability of the extension of the C P. & Y. V. road to Wihningtor. The consummation of (he plan), will result in great benefit, to the road, our cluef commercial city and' the whole State. The Durham Tobacco Plant an nounces that it will, on April 26th, the anniversary of Johnston's surrender at Durham Station, publish a mam moth trade edition as a compliment to the Plant's sixteenth birthday. Tt . 'is capable of doing so and doubtless twill do so in the highest style of the art "Volapux," the proposed universal language, seems to be receiving no little attention ffom philologists. Grammars of the "world-speech" are . for sale in all the leading cities, Ral eigh included. But that it can never win general favor is made clear by the single fact that in it a young lady is a fji-jam." 1 . ' Som of our Radical (contempora ries are sorry to hear that our Chief Magistrate at Washington is running 4o waist (spelt waste by tjhe aforesaid Contemporaries), his measure about the middle being j 56 inches. The fcharge may be true. The President may ran to waist, but he has a way JJbo of running to the defeat of Radi cal candidates, and that is what the people appreciate. Charlotte's street cars pay very well. There has been a steady in crease of receipts from the be ginning. The owner of the ejiterprise, by the fray, uses steel brushes, attached to the wheels til the cars, to clear snow, sleet, mild and other obstructions from the track and they do their work thoroughly. The cars are thus enabled to go along smoothly in all sorts of weather. " j S Elsewhere we print the gist of the President's special message touching the Pacific railroads. It is a charac teristically plain presentation of the subject in the light of the people's interest. It evinces a perfect grasp of all the matters involved and points oat the duty of Congress' with re spect thereto in a way thai can admit of no misunderstanding, j It makes clear that these Pacific Kail road cor porations, by their abuse of coneres- sional generosity, hare forfeited all I claim to consideration. It; leaves the question of what thali be done for the I correction cf the acknowledged wrong to the judgment ofj.. Congress but declares that the public interest I demands prompt and efficient action. As we said the other day, the ad vancing the Special Tax case was made without the knowledge of the State officers or of counsel. It was mad without notice to the coun sel for the State. The practice in the Supreme Court of the United States ii to make such orders, without notice and without agreement, and only to give notice of th& fact that the case is advanced. The advancement is made by the court for the convent encel of the court and to1 expedite the dispatch of business. The clerk has! since notified counsel for the State of the action of the court. I There as no consent on the part of the State or of its counsel j asked by I the court or given, but the advance ment was made by th eourt without f their knowledge or consent. There I was another case from Louisiana in S rolling the same point and the Su preme Court determined to hear the two eases at the same time. ! ' POLITICS AMD BtJSISKSS. It has been frequently alleged gainst Southern statesmen that they were- mere obstructionists, and that they- passed their lives advocating principles, while Nprthern statesmen turned their attention to practical polittcs.and realized fortune for their section at the expense of the South. The allegation is not well founded. g Boston ana JNew lortc nave been I nearer Europe than Southern ports I and hence have been the natural en trepots , of European commerce. Vhateyer development has taken I place at the North and Northwest has I followed as a sequence from condi tions that statesmanship could not affect, and the lack of development at I the South has been because of obsta cles that no statesmanship could over come.l I' The South is and always must be tn agricultural section, and the wisest f' her statesmen in times past urged alow tariff. Calhoun was originally Jor a high tariff, but the practical Shearing of the matter on the j welfare nd prosperity of the Southern peo ple led him to change his principles is Webster, who started out as a free trader, changed his to a high tariff protectionist. Now we see the be6t statesmen of assachusetts again declaring fcr iariff reform, so true is it that in terest enters largely as a factor icto politics. During the period before gibe war when the Government was pominated by Southern inn at noes he South was very prosperous. j$Ve had a low tariff. I Since then how has it been ? The IgTicultnral South for twenty -five fears has been drained of the earn ings of her people for the benefit of tjhe Northern manufacturers, who are protected by a most iniquitous, bur densome and unconstitutional tariff lax. The statesmen of the South in all ! generations have -pointed out how jurtf ul such a measure must needs be p our agricultural community, They prevented the consummation of the Resign as long asi they had the power to do so. Since the war we have been powerless until now.: But nowaday is breaking. Now the clouds arefdisap pearing. Now the opportunity presents itself for something ! to be done to better the condition of the people. It is "business." We have paid enor mous toll to the northern manufactu rers ever since the war. They have grown wealthy on what, under the protection" of the tariff, they? have wrung from our pockets. The poor man buyB a fifty cent ha. It is not worth a quarter. But he has to pay the bonus to the northern manufacturer- The good wife buys a spool of thread for five cents; ti costs about one cent. These are samples. This is how the northern manufac turer has fattened upon us? until he has grown so immensely wealthy. Go north and see their splendid pal aces. Go north and see their regal stare. See the evidence of their vast riches. They are the lords and ladies Of the land. The farmer boys, the homespun-clad eons of the South, who till the land and pay two, prices forjall they buy, toil for them. It is busi ness" for us at the South to free our selves from the drain -which the pro tective tariff makes upon us. Every business man in the South ia interest ed in this matter. Politics Baa al ways had its practical interest for the people ; but never before has this practical interest been!eo sharply de fined, so clearly seen, as today, when we are weighed down under the great burden of' making the' fortunes of Northern manufacturers NORTH CAROLINA IS COVGRKNS Monday in the House, Mr. McClam my introduced a bill to provide terms of the circuit and district courts of the United States for the western dis trict of North Carolina at Favetteville.

Mr. Simmon, from the committee on claims, reported back with a favor able recommendation the bill for the relief of Thomas C. Dickey. ? i! How to Tell Bride: "Yee," said an old and experienced hotel clerk yesterdy, "I can tell a bride and groom at a glance. For some reason or other they all seem ashamed to have it known that they are newly married, and they all try to give the impression that they are comparatively old stagers, as it were, but it's no use with me. I smile when I see their old trunks to come with brand new ones, you know, would be to advertise the fact that they had just been wedded and I laugh outright when I receive a letter from a bridegroom, saying: 'Myself and wife will be at your house On Wednesday night, between 12 and; 1 o'clock. Our luggage will arrive diir-. ing the afternoon, but we will not ar rive ourselves until after the theatre.' Then I watch and see them come in with a bundle of umbrellas and tapes, a hat-box and a couple of valises, which I have no hesitancy, of course, in believing that they took to the play with them. How do I tell, a bride and groomt Well, there's something about the way; they look at each other when they are together, and when the newly-married man is by himself I can tell by the manner in which he uses the two words 'my wife.' He's not used to the combi nation, and they sound as unnatural to me as they do to himself." Troy Teleyram. CURRENCY. I From Tidbits.

He is probably the only man in the country who has saved so much money by limiting himself to one cigar.

' CTashthoton, Jan. 18, 1888. i The delegation of representative North : Carolina Democrat, con testing of It H Battle, chairman Htate Democratic executive commit tee; J. C. Buxton, of Winston; C. M. Busbee of Raleigh; R. B. Glenn, Dan bury; Paul B. Means, of Concord; H Skinner, of Pitt; A. H. A. Williams, -rjf Oxford; W. H. Burgwyu, of Hen derson; Josephus Daniels, of the Ral eigh Chronicle, and G. C Lamb, o! IJlizabeth City, met the Democratic njtembers of the ways and means committee, according to appoint ment, last night. Senators Ransom aid Vance and Representatives Hen derson, Cowles, Rowland, Latham, 3$cClamiuy and Skinner were present, y, Chairman Battle stated briefly that the delegation had come to Washing ton at the behest of the Democratic party in North Carolina to urge the abolition of the internal revenue laws, speaking both for the party and the delegation, h was not here, bo said, to indulge in bluster or threats, or to mjake any demands upon the ways aiad means committee. Nor was the presence of the delegation here to be understood as reflecting in any way 09 the Senators and ltt-pre sentatives lqf Congress from .North (Jarollua. ' "The purpose of the Democratic psirty in the State, through the dele gation here, was to supplement, sup port and emphasize their efforts. Tie party had repeatedly and une quivocally committed itself to the 11 abolition of the internal revenue laws, 7 apd "we are here," Mr. Battle said, "jo urge the importance of such leg islation as will immediately effect this result. The party must redeem its pledge to the people. It must do, at least, all that is possible in that di rection." He characterized the laws 'as op pressive and iniquitous, undemocratic and ill suited to a people who loved liberty and personal freedom. He sppke with warmth and earnestness. Concluding his remarks, he introduc ed: the different members of the dele gation, representing different sections of the State. Messrs. Buxton, Bus be?, Skinner, Glenn and Means ad drjF8ed the committee. They all had a patient and courteous hearing. Senators Vance and Ransom, were called out by chairman Mills of the committee. They endorsed every thing that had been said, and urged thej committee to take prompt action in Effecting some substantial internal revenue legislation. fhairman Mills said the committee listened with deep interest to'-: all that had been said 114 was in full sympathy wijjb. the gentlemen present, and he. wanted to assure them that all would be done for the relief of the people in Ndfth Carolina that could be done. Spiking for himself, he was in favor of abolishing the tax on brandy and reducing the tax on tobacco, tie would go farther if Necessary, and fa voi; the total abolition of the tobacco taxi This expression elicited hearty applause. Mr. Mills said the matter uuer discussion had already received the. fullest consideration, and the del egation could return to North Caro ling with the assurance that some thijpg would be done. About 10 o'clock the conference ended. Today d.fitTt-Dt members of the deputation have expressed entire satisfaction wivb the outlook. They feel hopeful ani confident ; even buoyant; and elaed, as expressed by one of the western delegates. . Today the members of the delega tion visited the White House and wee introduced to the President by Senator Ransom. NORTH CAROLINA KOTE8. Joel Einsey, one of Representa tive Simmons' constituents, visited the' White House the other day, and shoipk hands with the President. By way of introduction, he told the Presi dent that he was a plain Cove Creek farrper from North Carolina, that he had, read his message twice and that he endorsed every word of it. -The President made a second pass at his hand and gave it a grip that raised the Cote Creek farmer on the toes of his boots. Leaving the White House, he went to the Senate to see Wade Haijipton, who, "Bill" Lane said,, was the biggest man in the country. '; He shook the distinguished South Caro linian by the hand with unaffected prie and admiration; told him "Bill" Lane said that he was the best fighter in the Confederate army and the big gest man in the country, and added that'Bill" Lane was good authority dowfi his way. Kinsey said,' on leav ing .he Senator, that he was not; ex actly; ready to die yet, but be was muc) better satisfied to go, now that b,e hid seen Wade Hampton. ; Ooe of Representative McClaramy'a constituents writes him to "have the brandy tax repealed before the next campaign, bo that when he comes around electioneering next fall he can treat him to a drink of honest North Carolina brandy." M. McCiammy says he will move heaven and earth to do it, and be lieves that it will be done. . A. H- BoydeD, postmaster at Salis bury is here for a few days. He found no difficulty, he says, within a weekafter hisjnduction into office, in supplying the office with efficient Democratic clerks. f PERSONAL. Mry C. M. Busbee goes to B<i moreftomorrow, and thence to New Yorkpn professional business. Messrs. J. C. Buxton and R. B. Glenn remain here until Friday. At o'clock this evening Speaker Carlisle was still improving. It will be some days before he resumes bis duties in the House. Julian S. Carr was here today .at tending the National Tobacco Associ ation.! A msjority of the association, he say, is opposed to the abolition of the tobacco tax. It was thought best, howecter, undtr the circumstances, to tako no action in the matter. H. AilVK'E TO IOTHER8. Mrs: Wlnslow's 8ooUi1dr Syrup abould alwjt be used )hen childreD ar cutting teeth.
