Republican nomination for the presidency, none exists as to the choice of the Democrats for that po sition. The only name mentioned for the' first place on the Democratic ticket is that of Mr. Cleveland. fTe has no competitor. The Democracy of tie Union turns to him as a nutter of course. No one else is in the pub lic ruiud in any part of the country. For the second place, as y' no contest has been made, and the friends of a number of gentlemen may pre sent the names of their favorites. Col. Vrias' name has been mentioned, as well as that of Gen. Black. Our favorite,, however, is Hon. Adlai E. Stetenson, the very efficient First Assistant Postmaster General. : We have had occasion to note the grasp, the scope of power, the high character, the unquonchable Democ racy of Mr. Stevenson; and wo find in him a tine type of the genuine Dem ocratic statesman. Cleveland and Stevenson would rally tho Democratic hosts and their nomination would be tho signal for victory. Their names on the Demo cratic standard would assure- us the zealous support of the entiro party, aud November would witness a grand triumph throughout tho Union. Another ticket might bo success ful, but this would certainly remove all doubt as to the result in North Carolina and it will be the same in all other States where there is now an appearance of uncertainty. Th,e joinder of no other man with Mr. Cleveland would serve such an admirable purpose, bringing into lino so thoroughly the strong reserves of the Democratic masses all orer the Union. By all means let the tickot be Cleveland and Stevenson. The poor Crown Prince of Ger many seems to be doomed, and prob ably has but few more days or weeks to live. He has been subjected to the operation of tracheotomy, which is the introduction of a silver tube in the trachea to enable the lungs to g6t their requisite supply1 of air through an artificial channel, the natural channel being obstructed by the tiimor at the base of 'the larynx, and which is a temporary expedient only and in no sense curative, and now they are talking about trying laryngotomy, which is the extirpation of the whole larynx. This last prop osition seems to indicate a final con clusion that it is cancer after all from which the Prince has been and is still suffering, a suggestion that has been steadily denied by the fa mous specialists in charge of the case. So horrible an operation would not be resorted to we must suppose 6ave for the purpose of removing cancer from both the body and the blood of the illustrious patient and so as to insure its non-return. It is to be feared, however, that it is already too late for such a trial and that the loved Fritz has only to prepare him self for the death that stares him in the face and that is hurrying him into eternity. The prince like the pauper is ; subject to disease and though he may have the advantage of the highest medical and surgical skill he must sooner or later lie down in the grave with his poorer and lees distinguished brother. All is vanity, saith the preacher, so far at least as setting one's affections wholly on earthly things is concerned. Daily is this lesson taught us and in every walk of life. The President will today, bar ringjaccident, bein the land of flowers and riding about t,he streets of Jack sonville with Mrs. Cleveland in a car riage covered with orange blossoms which the tasteful people of our more southern sister have provided for his delectation. His passage through the Old North State was hurried bat not too much so for our plodding but patriotic people to wish him well and to commend him hearti ly for honesty, firmness and devotion to popular interests as well as ability in the Presidential chair. It would be worth his while- to stop long enough on his return to see something of our eastern section as he has al ready looked upon the surpassing beauty of oar mountain region. In any event, however, he may rely on the Democracy of North Carolina for its utmost endeavor in the matter of his re-electien, his re-nomination be ing a foregone conclusion, as a faith ful servant who deserves further hon ors in addition to the plaudit Well done. ; Gekebal Sheridan says he would not run under any circumstances. All the wiser favorites of the Repub licans seem tojrealize that the prize of the Presidency is out of, their reach whether nominated or not. The Salvation Army Captain Utllgna. Charlotte Cliroufcle.

White Wings says the ceremony will be an interesting one. The Captain, it seems, has resigned from the Army in order to study for the ministry. White Wings spoke ra'her discourag ingly yesterday of the prospects ahead, and anticipated trouble in meeting hall rent. "I think it would bo better," he said, "if it gets so that 'we can't pay the hall rent, to give up the hall and go about from house to house, or hold our meetings in the court house." He says that he does not know what is to be done in re gard to the Captain's successor until Col. Light is heard from. A Plain, Blunt Man. From the Boston Commercial33ullettii.

The sea grape of lower Indian river i the very "elixir of life," as far as known; Wonderful stories are told of its life-f-ustair.ing ptopertiea. The trees are numoious all along tho river banks. They grow almost without exception nioug the water's edge, re semblipg in general appearance some what the common lig-tree leaves about the fame siz-; and shape, but having purp'o steme. The twigs and limbs presem a knotty, stu-like ap pearance. The average trees are small. I 6aw Only a few large specimens ono five feet in diameter near the ground But the fruit is the wonder of that fair tropical land. It is a small, lobe shaped, half-grape, half plum production, from which ihe juice is pressid and mixed with water, like the lemon, for a beveiago. As an in vigoraf or under fatigue, and the hun ter's substitute for food, it ia uusur-passed-i-by-long odds ahead of any thing invented. The appeat anco of tho Bea-grapc, tho date palm tha' tow begins to dot tho landscape, tho magic grace and beauty of the cocoa-nut trees, and the frequent recurrence of pine apple fields i hat bask in the sunshine with the golden glow of ripe wheat fields ready for tne harvest, all tell, you plaihly that you havt pas?od be yond, the frost lino beyond the chills of winter, and into the domain of perennial summer. Here the wild spring lowers bloom in January as they do in tho South Carolina mead ows in Juno. So far I liave taken tho reader in imagination down past Morritt Island, down past. St. Lucie Sound, Sebas tian and Hermau's Bajp, through Indian River Narrows and Peck's Lake. Then comes the wonderful labyrinthine curiosity known as Jupi ter Narrows eight or ten miles of island-studded territory, where the voyager must just creep along over sand beds and oyster shoals here gliding under Mangrove limbs and then steering rounda point where the channel is nix and your keel grates heavily on the bottom. You pull aud push and wish for the breeze and struggle at last through this strange panorama of nature, and wonder what it was all made for, unless it was for the fish and "varmint," when sud denly, after the sharpest turn and the narrowest channel yet seen, you glide into the fast reach of this magic river, a stretch of ten or twelve miles known as Hope's Sound. Here are merged tho excellencies and advantages of this goodly land the beautias of its tropical vegeta tionthe charm of a placid river -the generous: fruits a climate that car ries to the consciousness a conviction that hers is the embodiment of balm and elasticity the high sand bluff on the west (inland), covered with spruce and live oak, that tells of the healthfulhess of that region. Here are oysters by the square mile and in eaoy reach it is with diffi culty that you can sail over the banks; and here is the tame endless supply of fish and on the east lies a ftrip of land between the sound and the ocean that may, in some respec's, be compared to a half mile of the old original antediluvian Asi atic Paradise. There is no positive authority that Adam had any good palmetto ' hammock in his original grant but this is neatly all ham mock. Ejgkt hundred yards to the rear as you land (eastward) you mount a bold sand dune covered with live-oak, scrub and4 palmetto, and in a moment, the ocean, hoary and monstrous, bursts upon your view. Your hat comes off instinctively. You bow obeisance to the poculiar boauty of the scene that seem? to swathe its ever changing lineaments with a liba tion of cerulean and golden glory. Nothing can equal the strange charm that greets the eye of the be holder as ho gazes on these limpid, sun lighted waters. No description over attempted seems better than a caricature. The play and sparkle of the tints, and the evolution of the deeper colors is a perpetual mystery. This sea and sound begirt Jupiter Island, this breeze-swept edition of El Dorado is, in the language of one of Florida's adopted citizens, "the poor man's heaven, the laboring man's opportunity, the invalid's sani tarium, the rich man's luxury, the tourist's ideal and the hurleis and fisherman's glory." L. W. A. THE MAttVELS OF GRAPHT. A Convereatlon Between ondon, Cairo and San Krancleeo. San Francisco Call. One of the marvels of telegraphy was fully demonstrated last Sunday morning, when operators in the West ern Union office in this city- carried on an interesting conversation over hill and dale, over mountains capped with snow, through valleys of peren nial green, under the Atlantic Ocean with its unexplored secrets, over the viDe clad regions of Europe and un der the Mediterranean, with Cairo, in the land of tho Pharaohs. The time was 3 o'clock in the morniDg, just after a heavy night's work, "good night" havfog been received on the last pret-s dispatch- The dramatis persons were three operators, and the way the affair came about was as follows : Chief All clear. Have you a cicar, Bob? Bob You bet; but I'll keep it. Chief You will? Who are you working with, Tom? Tom Chicago. I've old Fox hero. He's going to turn on the cable office, and by the mortal Frost I'll speak with alentia or bust. "Co, Co, Co, Ch," rattled off the sounds, and "I, I, I, Co," came' in renponse. ' There is the cable office," said the Chicago operator; "go for him, old fellow." To Valentia Let us hae London, now, please Tor Bay. Valentia to London Here i : San Francisco, Ctvl , who wants to speak with you. Tor Bay is doing the cable transactions. London to San Francisco Delight ed to meet you by wire. It is just striking noon by St. Paul's clock, and very foggy, as usual. How is the weather there V "This is wonderful," responded San Francisco. "It ia 4.30 o'clock, stand ard time, here, and not yet daylight. Wo receive many cables from London, but never had the pleasure of meeting you before. Any Americans there? It is raining slightly. There are plenty of mushrooms on the hills, and the boys will be selling violets on the street corners tody." London, having secured a signal from Cairo, wrote : "han Francisco, Cal., is on here and 6ends greetings. They want to connect the wonderland of the Now World with prehieloro Egypt." ' airo Say to San FianciscD tha it io u pleasure to span half the globo to speak with them. "The pleasure is mutual," tignaled Tom from tho Western Union oper ating room. Tho Pacitic speaking with the Nile, through tho Atlantic, the Bay of Biscay and the Mediterra nean dea is a wonderful feat. . i n Spirit of the Prt. It is plaiu to every thinking man and man of reflection, that nothing but the color lino put tho Democrats in favor in this State and nothing but that cm save the party from defeat. That is." about the only isue wo can all unite on. That h a visible and legiblo issue we cin all feel tnd see. You may talk tariff, revenue, corrup tion, fraud, pensions and every other evil from which we as a body, politi cally, are suffering till doomsday nnd not one mau iu leu will remember what you said three minutes after you slop; nor do many people care how much they are knaved cheated or defrauded so long as they don't see you in tho very act. But when you talk negro equality, negro supremacy, negro domination to our people, every mau's blood rises to boiling heat at once. Our poople aie not built in a way to submit to being domineered over by ch inferior race of people. They will suffer death first. Our people will deal fairly with the col ored mau and treat him kindly so long as they control ho State, but the negro would not deal kindly and justly towards the whites if he was in power. Bui tho sum and sub stauco of the whole matter is this, wo must and shall control, and thisStato must go Democratic, and tvery Demo crat must see to it. W. 11. K. in Scotland Xeck Democrat. It is an old adaga that you must not do what your enemy asks you to do. The radicals say we must not draw the color line. The idea of dic tation by the enemy is imperial and supreme folly aud impudenco. But the fact is the negroee themselves long since drew the color line and have been standing on their side ever since, and for one we do not feel called upon or disposed to pull them across it. They have been voting as a body ever since their enfranchise ment, and have persistently refused to ''split ' or voto for Dsmocrats. They have persistently elected repub licans whenever and vrhereever they could, although they knew they were not fit for the offices. And in doing this they have knowingly and c'aeer fully in phalanxas, voted againbt men who were worthy and capable. And they have been encouraged to do this by the white men who leagued in with them. If there be color lines the radicals, and not the Democrats, have drawn them, and it is dishonest on their part to deny it and unmanly to whine over it when it proves to be a boomerang to them. Wurrcnlon Gazette. Boodlo is expected to enter more largely vthan ever into: the political contest in North Carolina this year. Republican authorities estimate that they will have enough funds to- pur chase ten thousand votes. That will be a pretty large transaction, and will require a big pile; but plenty of it will be forthcoming if the party man agers consider the investment likely to prove profitable. A desperate effort will be made to capture the electoral vote of the State for the republican candidate for president. United effort on the part of the Democrats will bo necessary to hold the State; but united effort will doit. Davidson Dinatch. He would have the country believe that the Democrats scouted the tariff issue in the national canvass in 1884, evading tho question, as an issue, and treating it as outside the record. Such a subterfuge is unworthy even the chronic Presidential candidate, for he knows only too well that President Cleveland's tariff message, recently addressed to the Congress, simply formulated the Democratic position on this ques ion which, through the years, has been urged with unabated zeal and vigor. Mr. Blaine's declinature leaves the field all the fairer for the success of the Democratic party, for he is undoubt edly the opposition's strongest man. liockingham Rocket. ' CURRENCY. In the Market.
