The people of the State will, therefore,: prepare themselyes for a very offensive dose of dirty jokes, no logic and the lowest species of demagOguery. They know Dockery of old. J' !

Feeling the need of having oar pa triotism Revived in this year of grace and elections the citizen of our town decided a short time since to arrange for the ooming together of our peo ple and for some services appropriate to the dar. vear and Burroundnica. Accordingly this fact was made known by a liberal spread! of hand- DUU3, ana at an early no ur on tveanes day morning many persons of all sizes and ages could be seen pouring into our Tillage through its different thoroughfares. . By the hoar ap pointed : for the speaking several i hundred were crowding our streets. ! ' A goodly number re paired to the stand and! listened to two very sensible and and patriotic addressee from N. B. Brooghtou, of Raleigh,; and A. 0. Green, df St. Mat thew's township, Wake county. The address of Mr. Broughtoa was jast suoh M any Christian gentleman might deliver to his countrymen, and I Just snob as every citizen of the United States Ought, from time to time, to hear. Mr. Green, though sot npch experienced ixi public speakfng, did err eat credit to himself on yesterday. He had; formerly lived with us and was here to meet with those in whose welfare he felt a deep interest.'- Be ing prominently connectedyvitu the Farmers' Alliance of this county, he spoke freely of all that bad, passed in our conventions and urged i most elo quently that all white men,- be .they whom they might, should snpport the ieuiocrnuo pariy. 11 evuiciuii., re form them inside the Democratic party. You will not get relief by go- ing ouipiae. lie uses tne sieuge Ham mer well, clinching every nail. Af tee Messrs. Broughton and Green had concluded the crowd adjourned for refreshments. It was announced that Messrs. Bunn and Battle would soon arrive and speak at 8 o'clock. At the tap of the drum in the after noon the crowd re-assembled ana listened to the addressee of these gentlemen. We cannot in this short notice do justice to any of me speak ers. Suffice it to say, our people had long had a desire to meet Mr. Bunn and form a more 'intimate acquaint ance with him. It was very touching to Bee some of the members of the 47th Regiment N. C. Troops go up and shake his hand and heat the Jthort rehearsals of campflre life and battles foughtjwhich were mutually shared by them. Mr. Bunn will gain strength waerevjer.ne goes. 110 i. nae can vasser,: speaks well and by his manly bearing will command the Respect of all. lie will as surely be the suc cessor bf John Nichols s night fol lows day.

Mr. Hatch, of Missouri. prV-stulfd a report of the conferees on tbe ag ricultural bill to the effect that they had reached ) agreement upon all points of difference except the Sen ate amendment appropriating $100 0Q0 for sorghum sugar experiments. The report was adopted and the con ferees were directed t insist upon their disagreement to rhis amend ment. The regular order was demanded, being an aye and nay vote on the E as sing of the land grant forfeiture ill, and the vote was taken, result ing ayes 177, noes 8. So the bill was passed. .Air. Belmont, of New York, from the committee on foreign affairs, re ported the result of the inquiry in to the case of John Curtin Kent. Cal endar. Mr, Atkinson, of Pennsylvania, from the committee on the District of Co lumbia, reported the bill to punish public drunkenness in the District. The House then went into commit tee of the whole on tjie tariff bill, the pending paragraph being that rela'iug to iron ore, steel railway fish plates or splice bars- - Mr. Buchanan's motion to strike oat the paragraph was rejected. Mr, Bayne, of Pennsylvania, made a similar motion with respect to the paragraph relating to spikes, horse shoes, etc., stating that the revenue derived from this source last' year was but $10. Motion lost. The reading of the bill then' pro gressed rapidly, motions made on the Republican side to strike out many of the paragraphs being rejected, gener ally without division and with little debate. Messrs. Farquhar, of New York, Adams of Illinois and Spooner of .Rhode Island, protested against the reduction of the duty on files and the imposition of an ad valorem rate. The Democrats refrained from replying and upon a standing vote Mr. Far quhart's amendment increasing and scaliog the duties in proportion to the size of the files prevailed by a vote of 64 to 61. Mr. Mills, however, demanded tel lers and the result was reversed, yeas G3, nays 70, and the amendment was rejected. : Ori motion of Mr. Vance, of Connecticut, with the assent of Mr. Mills and amid some sarcastic laughter from the Rpub'i cans, the paragraph imposing a duty of 85 per cent ad valorem on wood screws was stricKen out, tnus re storing le present rate of duty. Mr. Dubois, of Idaho, opposed the reduction of duty on lead pre. He offered an amendment restoring the existing duty and providing that com binations of lead ore with gold or sil -ver ore shall not be exempt from the duty on lead: ore. The amendment was lost by a tie vote of 62 to 62. Mr. dtone, of Missouri, offered an amendment whieh, leaving the doby on lead ore as filed by the bill, provides- that the combination of lead with silver in ores shall not exempt the-lead therein from duty. Rejected, after a long political debate, in which the amendment before the 1 louse waa entirely lost sight of. One, submitted by Mr. Warner, of Missouri, restoring the present rate of duty on lead ore was also rejected. : On motion of Mr. Mills, tbe clause was stricken out wmcn imposes a duty of 35 per cent ad valorem on pen-knives and razors, thus restoring the present rate. On motion of Mr. Mills a clause was inserted fixing a rate cn new type for printing at 15 per cent. ad valorem- Sugar and molasses and confectionary clauses being reached, by agreement they were all consid ered together, after an understanding had been reached that a vote should not be taken today. Mr. Cannon, of Illinois, offered an amendmeLt striking out all of the sugar . and molasses paragraphs and inserting clauses fixing duties as follows : Sugars, not above No. 16, duties standard: syrups, etc, and all mo lasses, testing not above 50 degrees,' not otherwise provided for, are to be exempt from duty, in the event that no expert duty is levied by the country of exportation. Sugars above No. 16 are to pay duty of tbree tenths of one per cent-; molasBes above 5G degrees, 2 cents per gallon; maple sugar, 2 cents per pound; of crystalizable sugar contain-. -"ti i' - j l . , - - cents per gallon; glucose, 1 cent per poundr bo gar candy not colored, cents per pound. All other confec tionery not enumerated, and on Sugars after being refined,' when tinctured, colored, or adulterated, and on all chocolate confectionery, 10 cents per pound (with similar pro- vision against an expert duty), it is also provided that to encourage do mestic production, there . shall be paid a bounty to the United States producers of sugar from beets, sorghum and other cane raised in the United States, as follows: On sugar, 2 cents per pound, crystalizable sugar contained therein; on molasses, above 50 degrees, C cents per gallon; not above 56 de grees, 4 cents. In supporting his amendment Mr. Cannon alluded to; frauds which he asserted had grown up under the present law, and criticised the bill for perpetuating fraud. The bill was better than the present law, but it was far short of what it ought to be Mr. Panston, of KstxHss, suggested tnat me iarmer wno prooucea sorg ham would not be protected if sugar under No. 16 was admitted free. ,Mr. Kelley, of Pennsylvania; said that the agricultural interests of the country was in a state of depression, and just as that interest was begin ning to be diversified by the raising of sugar beets and sorghum, it was proposed tht the whole policy of the government in relation to sugar should be changed and that bounties should be granted. He did not be lieve in it- ' Mr. Peters, of Kansas, was opposed to. the bounty system for fear! that capitalists not knowing whit moment the bounty might be withdrawn, wOiild hesitate to risk their money in tbe indue ry of nuiir p'oduciion.

The day is near at hand when we must all unite to reconstitute and establish the government of France upon a durable basis. The Republic has not given the communes the liberty it promised them. The Republicans consider any means justifiable to secure for tnem- selves a majority in the municipal councils. The Commune is thus divided into the oppressors and the oppressed. It is subjected to a sys tem of obligatory budgets. It no longer disposes independently of its resources, end parents no longer con trol the education of their children. Ah ephemeral government may prom ise t'o restore your lost liberties, but do not expect it to be able to keep its promise. Its first care would rathe be to destroy tbe liberties re maining to you. Monarchy alone can restore to you jour lost liberties and establish order m tbe communes and in the state." - I A Disastrous Storm. ;Rock Isiakd, III.', July 6 The 8f,orm which' passed over Rock Island county Wednesday night was the most disastrous that has visited this section in years.

Judge Estee, the chairman of the no tification committee, who, among other things, said: "It is true that distinguished gentleman, well known to the "people, who were experienced in public affairs, Illustrious in char acter and worthy of the people's con fidence and support, were before the convention as candidates, and yet yon were chosen." Gen. Harri son said he "accepted the nomination with so deep a sense of the dignity of tne ota.ee and of the gravity of its duties and responsibilities as alto gether to exclude any feeling of ex ultation and pride." He expressed the opinion that the issues before the people wonld excite unusual popular interest in tne campaign, and, as us ual with speakers of the Republican faith, claimed for that party the eman cipation of the colored race. He said he had read the Republican platform, and that its declarations were in har mony with his own views. Gen. Har rison promised at an early day to communicate by letter a more formal acceptance of the nomination. Tne Verdict l'nanltnons. w. Li.
