Still They ao Texas papprs for spycrl months past, have warned young men with out means not to cptne to that State ex pecting to find remuneratjrp labor. The labor market they say s tflutted, and to come there pxpeeting tp step into a good place for niakfng pionpy will prove "a sad disappointment. And yet this warning is pftcn unheedud, and we see and hear of young mon setting out for Texas. We would suggest to those who are bent on going to secure in advance the situation they desire to fill. This will save them money, time, aud great anxiety; for it is not only expensive to travel around in a st jange country hunting a place, jut must ncpa rily cause much mental .disquietude, to say nothing of the insecurity of such a wander ing life. WQRKINQ MgN'S PARTY. The late strike and rioters in the north trc nop organizing a political movement under the abtivc name. They openly pro claim their purpose to be the protection of the laboring classes against the aggressions pf capitalists; and they expect q operate through municipal and Stta governments and the federal Coijgrpss for the achieve ment of the reliefs they seek The party is forming japjcjly in many of the principal cities, anl.n, some places have nominated candidates for various public stations. It is not now possible tq jQrsfie the rKjilts of this movement; but wljpn we consider he great majority ot voters in this country are "laboring men," wa can. easily see what must come of a thorough organization of fhep- strength into one party. The day may come when the insolence and oppres sion of nioncyed aristocracy will be fouqd nsopportable, and the populace through the medim of the ballot box will make T?ar on it. We shall then enter upon a new epoch in the history of this country.

Agricultural Commissioner Lednc has two ideas : one is to save sixty million dollars to the coun try by stimulating the production of su gar: aud the other is to persuade it to rain over the deserts of the Far West hy plant ing forests there. The commissioner, how ever, is not by any means without other ideas more or lesspracticahlo. Both these ideas are good, and if the Commissioner shall succeed in carrying them out willhave done a good work for Itis country. RUSSO-TITRKISII WAR. -o London, August 20. The Times1 dis patch from Shu mla, August 13th, says: Tlio inr(iiin tf fiiilinioii Tncli!i with Mebmet Ali may be regarded as beyond doubt." The Acir' correspondent at. St mien i telegraphs: "It is expected that both the guard and grenadier corps will bo in Bulgaria by the first week in September. The staff hero calculate that one hund dred and eighty thousand men uro now actually on the march to reinforce the army. The next battle about Plevna is meant to be decisive, hence the delays for the snke of insuring success. The fourth cavalry division has been detached on an independent fcxpedition for the purpose of stopping Turkish communication with Shophia, by blocking the Orehordik pass, the main thoroughfare and the marching route over the Balkans. It is felt there that this should have been done earlier but if successful now it will still have good results." The correspondent of the Daily N&es, at Studeui, the headquarters of the Grand Duko Nicholas, referring to the dispatch of the fourth cavalry division on an in -dependent expedition for the purpose of stopping the Turkish communication with Sophia by blockading the Orehordik pass, telegraphs m follows ! is felt here that this should have been dono earlier, but if successful now it will still have good re sults. In the event of crushing a Turkish defeat at Plevna, it would gofav to make it another Sedan. The expedition is ob viously hazardous. TM same correspondent says he under stands that Servian intervention is now certain. He also says : "The activity of the Turks at Plevna in sending out cavalry reconnoisances seems as though they had some intention of taking the offensive. The weather is now fine again, and the roads are rapidly changing from, mud to dust. I am informed that the recent rains have not materially affected the health of the troops." State of Noittn Carolina, i Executive Office, V Raleigh, Nr. C, Aug. 18, 1877. ) W. F.Deasley, Ej : Dear Sir: Seeing in the papers that a number of the wovkiugmen of Baltimore de sign seeking homes in Kansas or the West, I write to ask yon to represent tho Agri cultural Bureau of this State, and invite tliem tp make their homes in North Caro lina. I he diflereiice between the climate of this country and of Kansas is apparent, ana lancis can be secured here, in farms, large or small, or in great bodies for colo nies, quite as cheaply as in Kansas or any where in the West, outside of the unsold lapds of the Government. So great is the variety of land we have to offer, from the sea shore to the mountain tops; and so great are our resources in timber, niiner alSf watorpower and all agricultural pro ducts, that I am sure we need fear no cum parispp with any new countries of the West. Rleaaa endeavor to get tho agents of inesp proposed emigrants to come to North Carolina and see for themselves our lands with their crops upon them Every facil itypossible will be furnished them for a fair inspection, and thefr constituents will be heartily welcomed by all of our people- suomu uiey come to live with us. It is the tcorkiHfpnen that we want. Very truly yours, Z. B. Vance. The above letter explains itself, and is Highly creditable to Governor Vance, who, besides giving due attention to his duties as the Governor, improves every opportu mty tp promote the prosperity of the State, The workingmen of Baltimore could hardly do better than to come to N6th Carolina. 1 Iy that Gen.

At a chambers court held yester day in Greensboro, Judge Dick refused to giant the petition of bankruptcy of the Bank of Statesville, on two grounds, First, that there was no proof that any corpora tion had existed ; and second, that had there been proof of this fact, the proper proceedings had not been taken. Char lotte Observer. WHAT DOGS COST NORTH CA-ROLI-NA. To recapitulate, wo lose annually, iu raising dogs, $1)00,000 ; in feeding dogs, $4,500,000 ; in sheep destroyed, $46,S42 ; tosal, $o,44G,342. Our consequential loss es consist in our not possessing one and a half millions of sheep, that wc would have but for dogs. And that u our most seri ous loss ; we may not look for thoroughly successful farming without sheep: we must learn to regard them, not as :t mere adjunct of the farm, but as a necessary concomitant. But our losses, great as they are, are growing greater year by year. In 1830 there were in North Carolina 593, 249 sheep; in 13G0, 546,949; in 180, 4G3, 435. This shows a decrease oM31,8l4 in twenty years, mat tho decrease since 1870 has been at a much greater rate, is the opinion of all close observers. As dogs increase, sheep doc rouse. I know of one community in Cumberland county where iu 1850 there wercjnore than 1,500 sheep, now there are not 15. A corres pondent of the Department of Agriculture from Bladen county says: "hi the neigh borhood of my .-acquaintance last year 950 sheep were Counted in an erea of five ipile; ; now the same region has only 69 all told, owing to the ravages of dogs." These are by no means isolated instances; they are common to the whole State. Sheep are threatened with annihilation, unless speedy protection is given them We cannot afford to allow thar. Rather than submit to it, we had better cut off the tails of our dogs about two inches be hind their ears.

Sun, Baltimore Gazette, Columbia Regis ter, Charleston Journal and Charlotte Ob server for libel iu publishing certain arti cles charging it with complicity in frauds perpetrated when the radicals held the State. Tho. Xews and Courier will make nothing perhaps would accept nothing beyond a vindication against the charge, and in this view of the case the same end could have been reached at much less cost and delay in some other wav.

W. D. HYATT. Grekwille County, S. C, 1S76. This is lo certify that I used Harris' Empire Compost last year on myland for Wheat, and though 1 did not give it a fair trial as I left out one of the ingredients, hut must say that where it was used mv wheat was never better, and I where I did not use it I find that it was verv indifferent. I shall use six tons this Spring. I consider the formula invaluable to farmers. Yours respect ful I v, W.F. PENNINGTON. Gastoxia, N. C, 1876. Messrs. Wilson ii Black Gentlemen; It gives me much pleasure to state that I used the com post bought of you last winter, and must say that I am highly pleased with it. I used it on an old broom sedge field that would produce nothing, and must say the result is astonishing. I consider it an invaluable compost, and just the thing to bring out our old worn out lands. Yours, verv respect fullv, Dn. J. F. SMYER. Meckxeneu g, Co , N. C, 1876.

This to Testify that I used Harris Empire Compost list year side by side with several commercial fertilizers' and I fyd that the yield from Harris' Compost was one fourth greater and the quality better lhan any. It makes t he cotton mature belter, and in my judgment, il is preferable in every respect. The cost was one fourth the cost of the high priced guanos, and one ton will go over ten acres of land.
