' I Tie fact which has been bronght out that Senator Tngalls was in 1864 a candidate on a ticket headed! by General McClellan for the presidency desuives more than passing notice.

It should be sufficient to conderau him forever as a politician even in the eyes of the rad ical party, but we fear this will.' not be bo. Ingalls is the representative of Rad icalism. He ia all gall and bitterness. He ewes the distinction to -which he has aUaiced to his intense sectional ism And hatred of the South. These aro the qualities which have com mended him to his parly. They are the qualities to which his party holds as prime necessities. Without living issue", apart from the people on all the questions of to day, that party has only the base re liance of becli' nal animosity, and it Bcflka thereforo to keep alivo as long aa possible the dying fires of hatred for the South.

The competition was open to boys tinder nineteen of all nations and the examination of young Hughes, the New York Timts London corres pondent eays, was conducted While he was confined to bed by illness, and was compelled to dictate his answers to a stenographer. - It is the first in stance, they say, of an American win ning an English scholarship. ; Paris is catching it now, being snowed under deep.

ALEXANDER. The f predominating interest in North Carolina is agriculture. Ac cording to the census of 1880, of the 480,000 persons engaged in all occu pations in i his State 300,000 were ex clusively engaged in agriculture, while of the balance, a large majority were dvperdsnt upon or in som. measure connected with that industry. The agricultural interest thus per vades the entire State. Of our vo ors fully four-fifths draw their living from the farms and of such is the Democratic party. In deed it may b said that the Demo cratic party it a party of farmers. Three fourths of the Democratic members in the last legislature were, we believe) directly interested in fanning. And so, as might be expected, all of our efforts to cdvi nee the wel fare of tho State centre in the devel opment of that important industry. To this end we hae established tho Agricultural Deparlment and hnvo rici 'y t;ndo,veil it with an income of forty thousand dollars to be expended undbr its direction. The valuo and importance of thia iuJustry are thu recognized on all sides. And in liko manner i' is eminent iy wise to put at the head of affairs one who himself is a practical farmer and who knows the needs of tho farming class and has the capacity to promote their welfare. Such a mau is found in S. B. Alex ander, Esq., tho distinguished Sena tor from Mecklenburg counly, whoso nsm-j iP. hold in high esteem by tho farmers throughout the length and breadth of North Carolina. Born iu 1840, ho was graduated at the University in 18'JO, and while yet rejoicit-g in his newly-worn; aca demic honors, lie showed tli.it h had fallen heir to tho n.aahood of '.eek leaburg the birth-placo of American independence and the home of Auieri caa patriotism. While tho thunders of the, first bom bardment of Sumter were still rever berating around Tiyon Mountain, ho joined, April 15, 1861, the Hornet s Nest Riflemen, and at once enleied upon duties from which he was to have no repose until the final surrender. He did not wait to be commissioned an officer: he did not seek the tinsel of the gaud uniform, but entered the Bervice promptly as a private, with out a moment's notice. Hib company became Company B of the 1st liegi ment North Carolina Troops. After a year's so; vice he was elected lieutenant in Company K, 42d Regi ment, and shortly afterwards was prompted to be its captain. The army of Northern Virginia, with all its heroism and valor, con tained no one more self-sacrificing than Capt. Alexander- no one braver no one more devoted to duty no one more solicitous for the welfare and comfort of his men. In 18G4 he returned to North Caro lina with Hoke's Division and acted as Inspector General of that command, whose glorious record, is imperishable on the pages of North Carolina s mill tary annals. veteran soldier that ho had become in tnese years of blood and trying ordeal, he had, however, not forgotten the plow, nor the straight furrow, nor the proper man agement of the farm which he had learnt in hia boyhood's days. And when the Conquered Banner was furled he turned his sword into the pmninghook and entered upon the quiet and unobtrusive life of a farmer in Mecklenburg county. A private in the glorious army of heroes, he entered, when peace came, as a pri vae in the noble army of farmers of this land. On the farm he had his upa and downs like other men en gaged in that hard and exacting voca tion, wiin labor disorganized and tne seasons often unpropitious and prices still more often unsatisfactory. But, schooled to patience, careful, diligent, methodical, he overcame m a remark able degree the difficulties that have been common to all farmers since the war,'; and has gained for himself good name as one of the most sue ceseful of our agriculturists. He stands today one of the best sped mens of tho pushing, hard-working, progressive agriculturists of the State, and illustrates in a high degree the virtues and energy of our citizns. : Ten years ago he was elected Ma ter of the State Grange, an organiza tion which he Dromoted and which be hoped would prpvo of inestimable advantage to our people. As such he became n meunber of the State Board of Agriculture, and there the soundness of bis views aid his clear ineight into all matters coming up for action gained him an enviable reputation and made him a member of great usefulness. In 1878, he was elected to the Son ate from Mecklenburg county and at once took rank among the leaders of that body. The people of his county had some years, before adopted the no-fence law, which was a great inno vation on our old North Carolina ways, and although there had been considerable opposition to the law at first in some parts of that county, the change had worked so satisfacto rily, that at the time Mr. Alexander was elected to the Senate, all of his county were enthusiastic over it. Other counties sought similar legis lation, and because the example of Mecklenburg was appealed to so often, it subsequently came to be con sidered that Senator Alexander was the father of the measure. He wac not in the legislature at all untill sixyears after Mecklenburg law m as passed, and while he has advocated that law for communities where s tuations are favo' able for it, he has not urged it for all portions and sections of the State. He took a high position in the councils of the Democratic party dur ing the session, but was not a mem ber the succeeding year. However, in 1883 his people again called upon him to serve them in the Senate, and he has sinoo been constantly re elected. Such a long period of con tinued service on the part of one so intelligent, bo active, bo diligent, has made him master of all the public quesiions of the day; and his acquain tance with tho details of matters, his sound judgment, his prudence and his patriotism and devotion to the welfare of tho people and of the Democratic party, made him a leader whose voice was always iu fluential on the floor of the Senate On every public question he eipresj ed sond views, well considered, and thoroughly practical. Ho was pro noonced alwaye, . but always in favor of the people, in la tot of the pnblio weal and for the ad vancement of our agricultural inter ests. Since the formation of tho Farm ers' State Alliance, Mr. Alexander has taken a prominent part in that organ ization, and has sought to promote its usefulness in all ways open to him. .'; is President of that body and is no ac ively engaged with others in forming Alliances and advancing the objects of the organization. JUr.j Alexander is. an earnest put.' lie speaker, forc:bl, ready, and alwav.i a thorough master of the subjoct ho proposes to discuss. Ha would make Cinv;.ri . ot :Norta 'oziroinia mat Hi J draw to tho pel's a largo num ber ol voters who often remain at w"ik; iu their fieldj on election day; and if n-rninated he would add g' fatly io tho strength of the Demo cratic ticket. Well acquainted with public mr.tteis, ardent iu his devotion to Norih Carolina, clear-headed, and with clean hindn, ho would mako a Gjverncr that would reflect credit on the Democratic party ana houor on North Carolina t T5e;Pr mm 011 tUe Lio vcruorahlp.

Stedman has a goodly numb'-r, who think he has all the re quirements; Clark is mightily liked for the course he has pursued, and all speak well of him; Alexander has no small following with a very large clues; and so it goes, and we think the question C3n only be determined by the people or their representatives.
