Somb favor San Francisco ad the place for the National Democratic Csaveiltion, but Chairman Barnum of the Rational committee, fears that if the Iconvontion should go to thai point 4me of the delegates Would not gel home in time to vote. Chair man Barnum is a wis man. The! Republican State ticket of Louisiana is a decided mixture. It may bq called mulatto. It seems to Lave bon extremely difficult to in duce amy man with any interests in Louisiana beyond possible pickings (o tiiki a place upon it of any sort. This makes it appear that Radicalism in Louisiana must be ,very much like what if is in North Carolina. .-8 , - - : The! well known Dr. Otis F. Man s m ded in. Richmond Wednesday, aged sjjty-fiye.

'-I - TmSsecret of the opposition to the Blair ill at the North is mistrust of the South. It is a sad thing to say at thisjlate day, and this day of sup- reconciliation, but it ia the Our brethren of the North are o trust us with the money that proposes to distribute. They have afnotion that we will not apply it profierly. ,They are jealous of our tretticjl any money, anyhow. They have een so long accustomed to profiting at the expense of this section that tey are.indibposed to let us even have t&ck our own that which we have leen required to pay contrary to !a oier and above the wants of the Gjverjnnent. The South has been steadiy drained of its life-blood ever since the war" for the benefit of the North! and our brethren of that sec tion re generous enough to wish that tie process may continue indefi nitely! It is touch sentiment that en courages the - Mali gnants, those har pies tf at prey upon the remains of sectiosal animosity and Beek to fan again Into flame the fires of hatred for party and personal ends. Their pur poses J are the basest possible and shoulg receive the contempt of every patriotic citizen of the restored union It i manufacturing that has made the soid, wealthy interior towns of GreatfBrilain and the continent of Europe. It is manufacturing that has mjfide the. rich townB of the North. Uude fqnner conditions the South's interns were almost wholly agricul tural! Under the conditions of today we mjjst encourage the spirit of in dustrial "enterprise here at home. We niustjj encourage manufacturing of ever j sort. We must encourage cot ton manufacturing. VVe have long paid tribute to the rest of the world in Ih&'mattei of manufacturing en terprise. If we are ever to become prosperous iif any great degree; if we are eer to become independent, we xnustj undertake ourselves to levy tribute, to iecure in turn a rea sonable share of the rewards the worlt at large offers for those things it ueekls for daily use in the home, on the frm and In the workshop. Miiufactufing will thus give us a market everywhere 4tr whatever skill and idusti y We may possess. It will af ford Imployment to idle labor in our midbl. It will tend to aid in the ad vancement of all branches of busi ne, wholesale, and retail. It will tendto make all. classes more pro perols, happy and contented.

We should endeafvor to give our fair city distinct character for industrial en terprise, a character that shall grow withits growth in population and tradf. In proportion as we should succeed in the effort, we should add to life wealthgathering ability of the community. What we need is to bring in reurn for. the use ?f our limited capiilftl, for Our labor, industry audi kill It is through an addition toj our jfnanufacturirg enterprises; onlyj that we can hope to attain this end.

We have failed m far to note that Mr. Blair, in the speech he made re cently in the Senate in behalf of Lis educational bill, referred to letters he had received with respect to the measure from Hon. J. C. Scarbo rough, late State Supoiintoml'Tit'of Public Instruction, and ilon. S M. Finger Superintendent at prr-cnt Mr. Scarborough wrote of ,Iliu s ton county .only and showed Unit with 10,000 childron to berdacat. il in that county and with 17.000 onlj wherewith to do it, the w capita fu the children to be expended was only $1.70 each for the year, "liilo m many of the Northern Stati(.- ail Mr. Blair, -"the sums exceed 11 poi capita, and in some Stales the M.m even exceed j'20 per capita for'tlic school year.'' And : Mr. Scarborough held tliat his picture was a favorable picture for the State at large. Maj. $ Finger wrote. favoring the passage of the bill. "He has ap peared ; before the committee," said Mr. Blair, "as did the former Super intendent on an earlier occasion. Both have pressed the passage of this bill as a necessity for the State. Mr. Finger Bays in a letter written to me last May: 'Your favor of the 20th ultimo came duly to hand. I send you a copy of my last report, on the first pages of which you will find a summary which will, in brief, give you the exact con dition of our school system. We have an average of just about three months' terms per annum for both races. Beyond this ' "And I call the attention of the Senate to his emphatic language, his despairing language 'Beyond this we cannot advance soon, both because of the inability of our people to bear heavy taxation and because we have in our constitution a limitation of taxation, C6J cents on the $100 of property and 2 on the poll for all purposes of a general na ture.' He makes suggestions of Borne modifications of the bill which he thinks would facilitate its operations in the South. In his report he says very much which demonstrates his great capacity and fitness for the position which he occupies. The general fact which he states in his letter, and which is pet forth more at length by the former superintend ent, is fully sustained by his report on the question of national aid." The modifications suggested by Maj. Finger were to the point and in line with sentiment at the South, r as well as with sentiment everywhere that is duly regardful of the rights of the States under the Constitution. Through the courtesy of Maj, Fin ger we are enabled to present them in full.: They were as follows : "If you would modify yonr bill so as to indicate less probability of in terference with State systems, it, in my opinion, would have more favor both North and South, and when passed would do more good. Why not provide thaUhe funds mp.y be used for school-house building and for all purposes just as other school funds raised in the State are used? Why keep trfe funds separate? Why require per capita apportion ment of funds! Why apportion on census between 10 and 21 years whon some States have no such statistics? Why not apportion according to State laws as they exist, requiring, if you wish equal school terms and facil ties? Why require the Governor to report the number of children attend ing school between 10 and 21 when some States have no such statistics? Many have from 6 to 21 as in N. C. , Why require school books used to to be filed with the Secretary? Why require the Secretary of the Interior to investigate complaints? Why not simply set aside a certain amount of surplus now in the Treas ury, to be distributed to the States in proportion to illiteracy, to be used for the education of all the children as the States use their own funds and dollar for (hilar? Why interfere with State systems? Why not trust the States to manage this dearest of interests? I do most heartily wish that you may so modify the bill that it will be acceptable to both North and South and become a law. My observation is that there is more opposition North than South, nnd this opposi tion is based upon the restrictions in the bill rather than upon the fact of distributing money for education." The objections thus' indicated are in effect those which we have sIwrtb had against the measure, and which we have been careful to express. We huve taken it for granted, how ever, that our friends in the House would eliminate such objectionable features from the bill under consider ation while at the same time leaving the measure in such shape that it might secure support frjm Northern representatives and so become a law, affording our people in tne South the temporary aid which it provides and which is sorely needed. Were we in Congress we are not sure that we would vote for the bill as it stands. We Bhould endeavor by every means, however, to secure its pas sage in a shape modified as tile Bpirit of our fundamental law demands it should he. Wu have not supposed it impossible to gain these modifications. We have felt sure that our friends would, if possible, secure them. We know the needs of the South educationally. We realize that they are great and pressing. We have been anxious and are etili anxious to obtain the aid the Blair bill proposee. That aid can lie had in a perfectly legitimate way, with out any sacrifice of principle or self respect, and it should be had. The money the bill propose to distribute is piled up at V, h(hii!(,'t(:i!. withdrawn from trade and industry, tloi; no good to any bod v, bi srfvirg intLcr &f a temptation to extravagance, if not corruption. It Las been taken from the people in dirt ft. contrariety to law. It should bo returned and cannot in aDy b tier way 1e re turned; than to the States fur educa tioi'al purposes. We W juld nut fav r the collection of money by iLe tutiui g vtinuient at any limo for itdiutnbuiion for ed ucational or any other purpose;. But that is bt the question The money has already been collected. It is in amount over and beyond the needs of the govtrnrnent. There is no pres ent vay of getting rid of it. Bt fore any measure of tax reduction can be gin to take tilect it will amount to a vastly larger sum than it is at pres ent. It'is the people's money, taken from them trnjustl. It should be re turned as promptly as possible and th return cannot be made in any manner more desirable than is pro vided for undr the general purpose of the Blair bill OLD-TIMK l.lv nr.M.n OP tub wil .MI. I ON UAH. Col.. Ja.-G. Lk'sn IN JfK-iSENOER. r. Win. II. llalsey was borr., I think, in New Jersey, and came 'to Wilmi:. ton while a very youDg man. He v:im a gent leiimu of education nv nioit. limn ordinary ability, or - f i mmi o m jirs v i a prominent member of tlit lur. U was more methodi cal than, biiliiaiit, and practiced but lew of the graces of oratory. He was regarded as a much better counsellor tliHii advocate, though some of his ef forts before a jury are remembered as having been very effective. There was a veiu of dry humor in his nature which bubbled up on occasions least expected, provoking merrimeut by his serio comic mauuer, his droll fan cies and iUiiiiit ' illustrations. He was exceedingly fond of theatrical amusements, uu l was a member of an amateur association that existed for mauy years in this city and which numbered amorg its members the most prominent citizens of the town. He was regarded as a good actor. I remember, when a youngster, witnessing many of those representa tions; they are etill impressed upou my mind and are invested with a beauty aud a chaiin, which maturer years fail to present, and an enlarg ed experience can neither diminish nor obscure. How the longing for the past of our ooyhbod cleaves to us all.' As ago creeps upon us and we live in rt collection more than we do in hope, how the heart goes back to those scenes and associations endeared to us in youth! We leap over the inter vening gap and fasten our yearning hearts upon the days which have fad ed into the distance. He was a very quiet, inoffensive gentleman, somewhat reserved in wanner but courteous to every one, attended strictly to his own affairs, never meddling with others or indulg ing in thi gossip or, scandal so com mon to every community. He died in Wilmington many years ago and was buried iu the old church yard of St. James, that common receptacle for the dead for so many past genera tions. I1T. BEV. THOMAS F. DAVIS. This distinguished prelate of the EpiBco al church was a Dative of Wilmington, brother of the Hon. George Davis, of this city, and the eldest son of the late Thomas F. Davip, a representative and a worthy one of one of the oldest families of this section of the State, who was for many years the popular and efficient clerk of the Court of Pleas and Quar ter Sessions for the county ofNew Hanover. Mr. Divia graduated with distinc tion at the University of the State and soon afterwards embraced the profes sion of the law. He came to the bar at ' a time w hen such men as Hon. John D. Toomer, William B. Mearep, Joseph A. Hill and others shed a lustre upon the profession. He at once assumed a position among the foremost and soon commanded a large and lucrative practice, which continued - to increase as his powers became more developed. As an advocate he was remarkable for the simplicity and clearness of his propositions and his wonderful pow ers of analysis. To a mind singular ly acute 1 and. discriminating, was added great powers of application and a tenacity of purpose that enabled him to master any subject to which his faculties might be applied. He was a close student, a lover of books and a thinker; possessed the happy faculty of expressing his ideas in language terse, chaste and to the point, and so clear as to be easily understood by all. He seldom in dulged in rhetorical display and nev er Bought to win the popular ear by appeals to passion or prejudice. His efforts at the bar are remembered as having been very successful, and those who listened could not fail to be impressed with his sincerity and honesty of purpose. He was an or nament to the profession and few men would have taken higher rank in it than he, had he continued the prac tice. But, moved by holy impulses and stroDg convictions, and at a time too, when a brilliant future was opening up before him, he aban dored it for the laborious and self sac rificing life of a minister of the Cross By precept and example, as well as by the elevated tone of his morality and the puricy of his life, he exerted a most wholesome influence overall who came within the sphere of its action and greatly advanced the cause of a pure religion. God blessed his labors and prosperedhis work. Ia 1853 he was elected Bishop of the Dioceso of South Carolina, and was consecrated on October of that year in St. John's Chapel, New York city, the Bi6hop-elect of North Carolina, the late Bishop Atkinson, being installed on the same occasion. In the latter years of his life he was afflicted with total blindness, but never a murmur escaped him, and in 1871, having worn the priestly robe of his high office without spot or -blemish for near a score of years, he passed to his rest a saintly man of God: Greene County for Governor. Cor. of the News and Observer. The people of Greene county can appreciate good government proba bly more than auy county in the State. Our - county government for several years formerly was under the control of good Democrats first class men; but by some "hook or crook," the Radicals got a majority of magistrates in the county, and ever since we have had two Radicals and a negio for commissioners. I cannot afford to comment in these columns upon their management, but leave you to draw your ovn inference. Let all Democrats take warning and nom inate good men, especially to head the ticket Leaders, live and aggres sive nitii; men that will organize ev ery county and township iu North Carolina Our people fully endorse the systematic course of Judge Wal ter Clark; one and all believe he will make a thoroughly progressive Gov ernor.
