It is pro posed t have a grand camp meeting of grangers at Pilot Mountain on" the 24th day of August. Prominent gentlemen of the Order in S. Carolina and, Virginia are to be invited to make speeches, and they aru to have music, and a lively time gen erally, all for the purpose of exciting re newed interest in the' Association. Such 1 is the 'prppositipn. but it remains to be speu whether or not it will meet tbegeneral approval of tlie grangers, ' ' fi ex. Leacu. This gentleman has writ ten a crackjng letter to the Raleigh 2rr rcrin vindication of himself agajnstrthe newspaper aquibbs charging that he was favoring Hayes' project for a new party in the South. He denounces the charge as untrue. We have had no doubt of it from the first j for as political matters now stand there is no cause for any party change, and without an adequate cause to operate on it would be simply impossible to move a peg. Why then do the news papers spend so -much breath over this new party nonsense. Xot True. The Hartford Timet hav ing published a letter in which it was stated that a once prominent North Caro linian, Attorney General, &c, was in the Poor House a Washington, the Raleigh JSewt answered by reciting the names of all the tivinjjex.Attprney Generals of the State, and adventured the conjecture that if true at all, Wm. Colkmas must be the map. The Concord Syn coujes in to say that Jt is not Mr. Coieiuau, for that that gentleman is now living inConcord. Thus it' goes-back on the. Hartford Time$ to cor rect this false statcinents The Ifurke County lmmigrantt.-Th Massachusetts colony in Burke county, as Ave learn from a reliable member of it, is progressing very satisfactorily in building houses and preparing ur business. It comprise oalynbout 30 per&ous at pres ent, but Jhe number will largely increase by the arrival of others who are laily expected, Some are eoming p-om Iowa and Wisconsin, and still another company from Pittsburg, Pa. Those already arrived are highly pleased with the country and their prospects, and also with the hearty welcome they have received from the citizens of the neigh borhoods - The New York Tribune has the follow ing: "Got. Vance, of North Carolina, is said to be building up a formidable Republican party in that State by Ins bitter hostility to the President's olicy. Many Demo crats, the best inert of the party, are said to be opposed to him, and to be in favor of a new organization which shall support Presidents Haves. The Republicans are already 'confident "of carrying the State next year." The X. V. Tribune either does not know or does not care what it is saying. Gov. Vance U quite in the full possession of the confidence of those who elected him Gov ernor. He is neither making nor unmak ing parties. He is doing nothing he can not triumphantly defend before his fellow citizens of the State, either as Governor as trcjtizeu? There is therefore no truth in the Tribune's statement nota word. The llepublicans have poMhe ghost of a chance for "carrying this State next year." If they could not do it while the color Hue was solid j' how shall they do it now that it is broken ! -Xo radicalism is dead and buried in NoSth Carolina, and that Is the end of it, Old whigs helped to put it F?7 .r7 $ey we not going to dig up the carcas.ud go about playing the fool in parading it before an incensed and dis gusted people, " ' Jolm Tyler, Jr., a sou afeirPresident Tylert was among thos$ wjuo topk part )n theXfompetitive examination jasi Moujcjay Ifor a first-class clerkship in the Pension ,1 Cmwiderable interest i just, amir mani fested In Datie county on the subject of a railroad connection attiiw place, ntoder a clmrtefrantetl ixg Febrtiary, 857, Jwhkh wfwpublish in this imper. There - wsi an effort made during the summer of that year to raise $200,000 and organize tne Company. $1UO,000 were conditionally subscribed: $100,000 were voted by the county of Davie; $25,000 by the town of Salisburv: and individual subscriptions in Davie and Rowan made np the balance of $190,000, failing by only 5510,000 to re alize the sum required by the terms of the county vote,, and so thevhole project fell to the ground.

ItJ said the people of Davie have determined to revive the scheme, and that they will hold a public metting in Mocks ville next Monday; to adopt such preliminary measures looking to this end as circumstances may require. They do not propose to hold the county to her subscription of l&7K-but will submit the the question anew to the vote of the peo ple, who it is believed are fully ' prepared to make a liberal subscription. Here then, is another call on Salisbury to decide an important question in which she is interested. Will the proposed road to Mocksville benefit her f If so, how much will she give to secure it 1 How much of private subscriptions first, and then how much as a town subscription? If our neighbors of the county of Davie demand it we roust show our hand; and it at once becomes a subject of cousidcrable inter est. THE EASTERN WAR. A Russian official report from Tiflis, claims that after capturing Mukhasta on the 11th, they advanced two columns against Khatzubaui heights, skirting the river-Kentricoi, which ''they stormed with a loss of 12 killed, 116 wounded, and an immense loss to the Turks. The Turkish accounts claim a victory in the same local itj The Turks were entrenched on Khatzubani heights, which are near Batoum. The Russians passing Bucharest carry flags bearing the double Greek cross, which are only carried when the war is a religious one. - The Danube, which has been very high is falling. The Turkish force at Widdin is well prepared for an attack from the Rouman ians which are daily expected The Porte is anxious about the arms ami munitions still due from America, and is represented as angry with America for allowing the Russian squadron to re main in American waters. The feeliug against England is becom ing bitter, the Turks thinking if she in tends assisting, she should do "so ou the Danube and in Asia. Turkish vessels are taking soundings off Odessa. One man only escaped from the monitor sank near I brail. Loxoox, May 14. Mrs. Challis, wife of the American Missionary at Listouia has died of small pox. The Times' Vienna correspondent ex plains the vote in the Chamber. He says: Although the resolution adopted by the Chamber speaks of severing the bouds be tween Turkey and Roumauia, and the Emjeror'8 government at the conclusion of peace to secure an independent position, it leaves Hie government to use their dis cretion in acting according to circum stances, so that for the present the whole matter is shelved. Bucharest Journals state that the Turks have crossed the Danube at Ciochanesh, stolen 1,200 sheep and killed a shepherd and somo cattle, - .The Telegraph' special from Batoum Friday, midnight, says: "About five o'clock this morniug the Russian forces which had been largely augmented for the purpose, advanced with batteries of field artillery, and made a furious attack upon the heights defending Batoum on the land side, which were occupied by Bashi Bazouks. The Ottoman troops were en trenched in the usual effective manner upon the slopes aud ledges of these hills, and upon the advance of the enemy they opened on his columns a terrible aud well sustuiued fire of cannon aud musketry, which literally mowed the Russians down in swathes. -They fell by scores and hun dreds, on the plaiu below the Turkish positions. During their attempts to make way against this fire, a body of Turkish horse and footmen taking advantage of a thick forest, broke forth upon the flank of the Russian cabmen, and effected a great slaughter. The Muscovites being upon ground perfectly open, and haviug no chance but to fight or fly, in a short time the spot which was the scene of this flank movement, became covered w ith dead and dying Russians. But the enemy quickly brought up reinforcements, and the battle was renewed w ith much determination for many hours. Tne efforts of the 'as sailants were desperately maintained, but towards midday their artillery fire grudu ally slackened and they at length with drew. A correspondent of-the Telegraph de scribing the battle near Batoum says ; "I myself was an eye witness of this inipor portaut engagement from the first to the last, and can testify that the Ottoman soldiers behaved with gallautry which was most admirable. They,had however, dur ing a great part of the action, the advan tage pf entrenchments- u:i iiigh ground, N. C, AND VIRGINIA It.

Senator Gordon .tiled with the Prsident yesterday the tes timony taken in Northeastern Georgia by ja commission ajpointed by tle Governor under instructions of the Legislature, to investigate the misconduct of the United States Marshals and Internal Revenue of ficers. The testimony shows that private property was destroyed, innocent men in Jarge numbers taken from their homes, marched hundreds of miles on foot, and after paying fees ro a lawyer, suggested by the treasury officers for this purpose, were discharged without cxei' having had la warrant served upon them or a regular Shearing of their case. The President promised to examine the testimony and jact promptly. THE SOUTH CAROLINA DEBT. o Prompt Action on the Interest Question Shouldering the Financial Burden Placed on the State by Carpet-llaggcn. Special to the Baltimore Sod. Charleston, S. C, May 8. Private and pruth worthy advices have been received iiere that the question of the course to be -adopted by the Democratic State govern ment in regard to the State debt was sub stantially settled to-night by the House committee of ways and means after pro tracted consultation with Gov. Hampton, Attorney General Connor and other lead- fug men. Hitherto there had been a strong disposition on account of the extreme poverty of the people to let the whole matter of the State debt go over until the regular.-session next winter, ami even those who favored immediate action were generally willing to fund all unpaid cou pons up to January, ld78, and to provide for the regular payment of - iutercst only ud after that date. But the committee owing mainly to the influence of Gov. Hampton, has decided hat the State shall at once shoulder the fauaucial burden placed upon it by carpet bag misrule, aud that the contemplated $tate tax of five mills shall be increased so as to make provisou for the payment in full of the coupons on the State consolida ted bonds of January and July of the pres ent year. j The appropriation bill, as finally agreed upon to-night, and which will probable be reported to-morowr, includes the following provision : "That the sum of three hundred thousand dollars, or so much thereof as may be necessary, be, and the same is hereby, appropriated to pay the Jianuary aud July, 187, interest upon the consolidated bonds and certificates of stock of the State issued under the pro j . 1 visions of the act to reduce the volume, of the public debt ; provided that no part tliereof shall be applied to the payment of tjie interest upon the said consolidated bonds aud certificates of stock until the holders thereof shall have submitted the same to the inspection aud scrutiny of a commission raised for that purpose at the present session of the General Assembly, and until said. commission snail have de termined the same to be valid and bona tide." The figures of the supply bill, owing to tlie adoption of the provision in the ap propriation bill to pay the interest on the public debt, have necessarily been in creased, the tax levy for State purposes hieing seven mills instead of five mills. j The resolutions providiug for the or ganization of the commission to scrutinize the bonds will be presented to the House with the appropriation and supply bills. ! THE DOOM 0jdORMOXI8M. : Y. HeralJ.l j Of these ''twin relics of barbarism, polygamy and slavery," the one w as more than twelve years ago extinguished in this country, and the-time has come for deal ing efficiently with the other. The extir pation of polygamy, which now lie before us, is but a slight task in comparison with the truly formidable and gigantic one which wo had to confront in uprooting slavery. ,The surviving i'twin relic" is confined to a small patch of couutry, whereas slavery was intrenched in fifteen States of the Union. Polygamy has no supporters or defenders outside of Utah; but slavery had a powerful and influential body of apologists diffused through every pfirt of the Uuited States. The Mormons live in a territory, aud in the Territory the authority of Congress is supreme and unlimited, so that in rooting out this pes tilent nest of abomination's no question can arise respecting . the infriugmeut of State rights. There is nothing, therefore, either iu the maguitude of the evil, or the strength of its defeuders, or the number of its apologists, or its powers of resist ance, which justifies any comparison be tween the difficulty of dealing with polyg amy aud the colossal obstacles encounter ed in the overthrow of slavery. It is so easy to wipe out the foul blot of Mor mouism that the Government will be in excusable if it longer shrinks from this duty. Georgia repudiates the fraudulent bonds issued by Bullock and his brothers in crime in 1870. The principal and interest amount to $8,000,000. Judge Martin, of the Circuit Court of Arkansas, has declar ed the act passed in 1869 by the carpet bag Legislature, by which $G,000,000 of bonds were authorized to be issued, to be unconstitutional.

ViX GOLD UILL. We stopped here to refresh the "inner man." As to the journey thus far, there was only one thing' notably conspiciuoui, "nd that too, nota bly conopiciuous by its absence. I refer to the aim oh t entire absence of either sign-board, or mile posts. With few exception, throughout the whole trip, fork, afcer fork in the road would be reached but uo friwwUy begvcio guide the doubling, "Innocent Abroad" ; mile after mile would be passsed over, but no mes senger to warn one to hasten his onward course or to "hawten slowly." For the Unem of all other "Innocents" an I in their name, 1 would appeal to the proper officials to take charge of this matter. Thee things ought not o to be. Gold ilill, as stated in your valuable paper last week, has proved a very profitable mine. Not much work is now done at this place, why 1 do not know. The surrounding country is full of "prospects" (the teachnlcul term, I be lieve), with what realization this deponent sailh ot. Tis ajfact of history, known tomany of your readers, that U;ore money has beeu expended in mining gold, than has actually been' gotten of this precious metal, to ay nothing of the hard ships of the laborer, the lives Umt, and evil caused. Better then, probably, to work the "surface mine" and not dive loo deeply into the depths of mother earth. But ihe 'hour for rest has passed and we move on. The lower part of Kowan, the strip of Cabarrus, and the upper pari of Stanly through which we pasd rapidly, much resemble each other, in the se-m-ingrtierility of the a il and absence of wealth. Kain reigned supreme nearly the whole eveu i ig. We reached ' . . ALBEMARLE the county seat of Stauly, about sunset, stopping at the "lle.irn Hotel," where we louud very good accommodalioriH, Albemarle hasabout, two hundred inhabitant!), half a dozen stores two hotel, a jail with one occupant, and several bai room. Mr. 11. V. Sphinx, of Trinity Col lege, has a flourishing school here. From Albemarle, leaving the more direct route to Fayetteville, we turned our course more Southward towaids Wadesboro. First, we reached CENTfiE, a growing village, situated between the Yadkin and 1 lie Rocky rivers; especially interesting to Presbyterians, as the first Pres. church in Stan ley county isshortly to be built there. Crossing the Rocky River at Bennet's Ferry we were soon at Cedar Hill, a vUlagett iu Anson county, where we dined. Anson vi lle next was reached. This is indeed a pretty place, having many fine residences, especially the large brick building, originally erected for collegiaie pui poses, but recently sold and now usetLas a common school house. "Ten miles more brought us to Wades boko where we spent Wednesday night. "A city set uion a hill cannot be hid," and indeed from this elevated place, views can be obtain ed almost equalling the auountain scenery of Western Carolina. For scores of miles iu everv direction the eye wanders over hill and valley, till wearied with the seemingly endless llight, it once more rests on the. many beautiful resi dences of this inland town. Fifteen stores, iand almost as many bar rooms, four preltv churches, Episcopal, Methodist, Presbyterian and Kaptist. severaf carriage factories, and the inevitable blacksmith shop about make up the bill. The Carolina Central H. K. passes through the outskirts, and great effort are now making to finish another road from Charltston, to con tinue, I believe, up to Salisbury. Flour hv the way, was selling from twelve dollars and' up wards per bid. Rev. S. C. Alexander has a good school here and h is done much to build up I'resbvlerian isin in this sectii n. But farewell to Wadesboro. Thursday morn found us travelling eastward through a thickly settled ond seemingly fertile country. Before long we come to LlLESVILLF ''a city of magnificent distances, ' though quite a pretty place. Then- we cross the majestic Yadkin, or Pedee, as called in S. C, much swollen by late rains, two hundred and eighty yards wide at the ferry (Wall's). Xow we are in Richmond county: Rockingham, theconntv seat, we can say but little, as we passed riht through with but a moment's halt. "Court" being in session the streets were full of persons, giving them quite a business look ing appearance. Two very large brick cotton factories add much to the place. From here to Fayetteville, a distance of 5o miles, we find nothing but the long leaved pine and the deep smd. Fvr fuiulcen miles after leaving the suburbs of Rockingham, we travelled without seeing a solitary human being or even, a habitable -dwelling. Of all "lonesomechol v" roads, this was sup native! y the "ionesomevholiest." The sighing of the pines and the grinding of the sand only seemed to deejen the solitude. Yet man has been here. The bleeding pine, as it gives forth iu life blood to make "tar pitch and turpentine" for its relent less destroyer, is con tinual witntss of his ravages. Stopping for the night at the first place on t he edge of I his barren wilderness ;McPhrrsons) the next day, Friday, after a drive of forty mile by ihe side of the old Albemarle & Fa etteyil e plank road, brings us to Fayetteville, where, donhtleas, Messrs. Editors, and kind readers, (if I have any), all interested are per fectly willing that we should rest bodily and epUlolarily for a few days. VIATOR. NEVER; KNOWN TO FAIL IF TAKE I V TI.UG.
