THUliSDAY, MAY 15, 189. f 1TESTEBX; N. C BAILBOADc The State Board of Iuternal Iraprove mcnU nut with the Directors of the W. f ;f N. Kail road at Henry on the 13tb, when ! 1 the following proceedings were had : Hf j. AV. Wilson, Esq., was re-elected Pre jideut; and S. 1. Erwin, Secretary and Treasurer. , k ' - ,; ,.: ---w'- ' On account of extension of work beyond I tlie Blue kidge and the increased dejnand upon the time and labor of the Presideht, who has heretofore been both President Land Chief Engineer, it was deemed advis I able to separate tlie offices, and Col. Thad. Coleman, one of tlie best civil engineer i of the State, was elected Chief Engineer, j and given the salary of Mr. Clayton, late Supt. of Construction, relieved, his office being united with' thafeof. Supervisor of Convicts; and in future, Maj.R. P. Atkin son, present sn per visor, will perform the duii&s both of supervisor and superinten dent of construction. The Directors be ing of opinion that the relief thus jpven the President from construction work f would enable him to manage the finished i partof.the road without assistance,, deci ' ded, in the interest of economy (which is ' greatly needed), to remove Capt. A. G. Halybui ton from the Transportation de partment which lie has performed with great fidelity for the last twelve months, and put this labor on the Presideut. ,Capt. Tom. Murphy and B. Newland were elected conductors very good ap J poiDtiiicnts; but we regret to lose that jovial and clever man, Col. L. B. Ilendcr 1 sou, so deservedly popular as a conductor. It is confidently exected that the road will be completed to Asheville by 1st of January next, j The State Board of Int. Improvement and the Directors of the road, expressed themselves as well pleas jcnl at the. progress inade under tlio man agement of Maj. Wilson and assistants, - I attended as it has been, with so many and j great difficulties to overcome. Mu. Block, an Englishman, traces the hard times in the business world to an accumulatiou.of disasters and mistakes tiu different .countries within the last 35 years. Tlie Indian famine in Bengal and Madras ; famine in China ; the civil war itt tho United States ; the war between France and Austria j between Prussia j and Austria, France and Germany, and ;ltussia audTurkey. These terrible dis- - asters he thinks was sufficient in them selves to disturb the financial and indus trial interests of the civilized world, by , the waste of capital, the withdrawal of ,men from productive labor, and the im- poverishment of multitudes who ceased to "be buyers of merchandise, and virtual , ly became non-producers. To these pauses he tidds another which he regards , asof the first magnitude, to wit, specula : tion in railroad schemes wherein millions of ! nioney became non-productive hy reason of being locked np in roads which were not needed, and never have aud I never can pay for their construction by ' auy benefit they can confer. j WethinkMr. Block has taken a very sensible view of the subject. The effect of causes snch as he enumerates is no longer confined to the countries in which j the causes occur, but their consequences ' and results affect' the whole social system r of nations bound together by commercial tics. As the stone thrown into the lake makes a wave that spreads out to the : distant shorer inoviug every floating ob i ject on Its surface, so wars aud famines r abd national wastefulness in one country, make themselves felt in all the rest, i HURRA FOR CATAWBA, j Tlio- Piedmont Pfejta the board of county commissioners of 'Catawba are opposed to granting license for .the retail of spirituous liquors, and a njajority of the board of town commis sioners of Hickory are of the same faith, o the dniuiL drinkers of the community .will have to make' other arrangements than that of getting their drinks at a liar .ropni. , (There is not a more.intelligeut, earnest And practical people to be found in the State than in tho county of Catawba. Awhile Rowan is discussiug the local op tion question through the columns of the Watchman with learned ability, Catawba rushes iu and seixes the bull (the liquor traffic) by the horns and backs him out of the couury ! j"Thar now ! That's sense," as Judge Cloud Would say, "sensesense !" i. From tlie present signs of the times Rowan will not bo far behind Catawba. The opposers of prohibition havecertoin- displayed ability and skill in their eortsto overcome plain and obvious facts, but we thinlc they have failed to overturn the strong convictions of tho masses, whoso good common snse views of the subject have come totheni through years of experience and observation. They know , it akan evil ami thev are 'going to treat it as such at the ballot box. No tipe spun arguments like Mr. Neave's or witty: thrusts like some of the other writers, can destroy a plain truth like H Gov Jarvjs arrivcA here on tl. joVock train Monday uisht. and ti lodgings ut tho Boy den House.

An 'ab stract report' of the! message accompany ing the return of the Bill, puts bis action on the ground, mainly, that the bill Would deprive the Presideut of the" power to enforce the laws of the country at places and j times j where and when its elections are held. i : I ' ! We quote the two last paragrahps of the views of the Pi-esident, as follows : "Under the sweeping terms of the bill the national ; government is effectually shut out from the exercise of the right and from the discharge of the imperative duty to nse its whole executive power, whenever and wherever required, for the enforcement j of its laws at places and times where and when its elections are held. The employment of its organized armed forces for ony such purpose would be an offence against the law unless called for by and therefore upon tlie permission of the authorities of the State in which the occasion arises. What is this but tho substitution of the State government for tlie discretion of the government of the United States as to the performance of its own duties? j In my judgment this is an abandonment of its obligations by the na tional government, a subordination of na tional authority and an intrusion of State supervision over national duties which amounts iu spirit and tendency to State supremacy. Tbongh I believe that the existing statutes abundantly adequate to com pletely prevent military interference with the elections, in the sense in . which the phrase is used in the title of this bill, and is employed by the people of this conn try, 1 shall find no difficulty in concurring in any additional legislation limited to that object which does not interfere with the indispensable exercise of the powers of the government under the constitution and laws. The veto message came np next day when the previous question on the pas sage of the Bill over the President's veto was demanded. It failed to receive a two-thirds vote. It failed byastrict par ty vote, the Democrats voting solidly for and the republicans against it ten greenbackers with tlie democrats and three not voting at all. The message was then referred to the Judiciary Committee. We quote from the telegraphic reports from Washington as follows : THE DEMOCRATS !AXD THE VETO. It was announced ; to-day by parties supposed to be well ! informed as to the movements of the Democratic party of the House, that there would be a caucus of the joiut advisory Committee held this evening to determine what course was most practicable to be pursued on the bill to prevent military interference at electious. Upon iuquiry, however, a member of the committee stated to-night that the advisability ! of holding such a meeting had been discussed, but it was the general, sentiment of the members of the committee that it was unnecessary for; them to take any action at this time, there being no need for a hasty disposal of the measure.' The following probably foreshadows the course of the Democrats : The Washigton correspondent of the Philadelphia 27mi, telegraphing Sunday pight, says ; A very prominent Demo cratic member of the House, when asked this evening what his party proposed to do,! since it was certain tho President would veto the caucus bill prohibiting the presence of troops at the polls, said that he could not answer for the whole party. "I think, however," 8aid he, '"that the army bill will be allowed to go to the devil. We can afford to go to the people on the issue if the .President vetoes the bill. For my own part I would etand out forever before voting for tlie army appro priation bill. We have given the Presi dent every chance, and if he chooses not to take advantage of the opportunity it is not our fault." "But what will yon do with reference to tho legislative, executive and judicial appropriation bill T" "Well," said he, "we will first pass it througlf both Houses and then send it to thePresident. If the President vetoes it, which is likelyL we will wake a bill cov ering the marshals and supervisors and pass that. This will nndoubledly be vetoed. Then We will make another bill repealing the tet oath for jurors, and this the President will sign. Then we will pass the legislative bill and go home. But the army bill will not be passed, you may be sure. We will go to the people on the issue raised by that bill, and we shall wrin." 13G boxes of mjinnfamwl tnho seized in this county a day or two ago and brought to this riWA WMinc.a.Un lhev were secreted iu a barn in the nonueastem portion of the county. The ways of raiders seem past finding out. Statesvillc American. Yes, the discoveries of raiders are often mysterious, but the solution may nearly always be found in the act of some secret spyi whose covetousness, cupidity or malice betrayed the offender for the sake of reward. Human instincts rise with greater indignation against the sneak in. former than against the offendr. Ai herein lies one of tho strongest objections to tue internal revenue system : it is con trary to the genius of our free institutions and to the long used liberty of the citi zen, aud to this, und the difficulty and cost of strict obedience to the law, is due ine irequent attemns at blorkmlino. Blockading is wrong. Every man is bound by an oath, actual or implied, to obey tne law. But men under the newlv im posed restriction will offset the obliga tion by saying ; the law i wrona.tLnA in Unit way seek to justify its violation. ; i. Railroading. There was a railro&d meeting at Wilkesboro on the 5th, in tho interest of the Yadkin Valley Railroad scheme. S.J. Gennings was chairman. and W. F. Porter and W. W. Barber, secretaries, ur. Harrill, Dr. Tvre York Col.j T. J. Dulaj Dr. R. F. Hackett, I. T. Preyette, all took part in tlie proceedings.. a no meeting resulted in a permanent or gauization with Dr. Hackett chairman and Messrs. Porter and Barber secre taries. 1 he first Monday in June was designated as a day for a moss meeting. tolic held in Wilkesboro, when aff effort win be made to arouse tho whole popl of Wilkes to the importance of tlie Yad kin Valley enterprise. The negro exodus is reported as dyin VUli The farmer who keeps himself inpplied with the! . modern improvements cook stoves, sewing..mncliiuesV plows, lioes wagons, reapers, feed cutters, corn shell 4 ers, etc, etc.,- unless lie had a surplus ap4 ital on which to draw, nine times out of ten will find himself in a "tight placed occasionally, and at the least, on balanc ing the year account, discover thai he has not saved anything. These things are excellent, and reduce tlie amount oi labor to be done on the farm and ie j the family7 but the cheaper ways of getting along will often save a man from sleepless nights, from mortgages, and a sacrifice of horse, or a cow, or the plantation itself. We have been led. to make these remarks on hearing a man say ho had been pushed up for money" to pay for a $45 cook stove and $45 sewing machine. Modern iim provements cost this man at least $75 more than the old ways cf cooking and sewing, aud unless he can make a sating in time and money out of the new metli ods that will more than compensate for the change, he has paid that much fori the naked pleasure of keeping up with! the times. This is tho nioney view of the sub ject alone. He has gained a great deal in the matters of ease and comfort, and if lie can afford to pay $75 a year for this it is nobody's business but his own. Nor, j in deed, if it should cause him trouble, does it entitle any one to say he has done wrong. We note it as one of the ways by which people become poor, and subjected to pecuniary embarrassments. The Southern admirers of Col. Pat Donan, (not long since an editor at Ral eigh. N. C.,) have been schocked by a re cent letter of his published in the Chicago Times, which goes back on his Southern record. Col. Pat is said to have "conce ded all that the most violent republican newspapers of the North had ever said of the Southern people and Southern In stitutions." The quotations we have seen are more than mere concessions. The Colonel was writing for the northern market this time, and lie wrote to please his customers ; and in doing so, gave it to the south in his peculiar and forcible style as she rarely ever catches it. It) is rather bazzardous to tie to just such bril liant men as this Col. Donan, floating around promiscuously, mora than all desirous of an opportunity to air themselves without regard to consistency. ! The Raleigh New' special Washington despatch of the 8th gives out that Ohio politicians say that John Sherman is sure of the nomination for Governor of tlmt State, aud that he will certainly be elect ed ; in which event he will be the next republican caudidate for Presideut. ! Blaine has been figuring np the Senate for 1881, and j presents the follow iug re sult : Democrats 37, republicans 3U. The present Senate is Democrats 42, repub licans 34. Blaine will forget his calcula tion before 1381, and so will everybody else. i The same corresiMMideut says : "There is only oue thing urged against" Senator Vance here, aud that is, "he seemingly has a perfect antipathy for newspaper correspondents." Vance has the reputa tion at homo of beiug a man of good, hard, common seme ; and wo are glad to see him maintaining it. j Chas. Freeman, of Pocassett, Mass., under the influence of religious crazincss, sacrificed his child, Edith, five years old, by plunging a butcher knife iuto her side. One scream and the spirit of the innocent little thing departed. Her deluded fath er said her spirit would return after three days and she would live again. Ho is a Second Adventist. His brethren aud sisters of the faith had been holding revival meetings until the excitement overcame Freeman, who professed to have revelations from heaven command ing him to offer little Edith as a sacrifice to God, Aud now he is under restraint as an insane man, while his deluded com panions may be induced to sober dowii and return to common sense. Tbe kingof Bnrmali has been induls;- mg a ferocious spirit, having put to death at Mandaly a large number of prisoners, some of them princes, whom he had con fined in a loathsome underground prison at that place. The method was to march the prisoners out by twos aud threes. The head of the victim was tied down to his ankles, and a blow on the back of the neck with a heavy club put him out of pain, and he was tumbled into a ditch. The king is talking and acting haughtily, which is common before a fall. j Cork wood is now wrought into cat- pets, and is said to be very durable, anil in all respects desirable, especially for dining rooms. Pic Nic There will be an anuiver- saro pic nic at Cool Spring, Iredell col, May 23d, nnder the ausuices of the Arji- demy located there, of which Mr. John Duckett is principal. Liberal arrange ments have been made to make the oc casion of interest and profit to those who may attend. Col. I L. Polk, Commis sioner Agriculture, and Rev. J. B. Boone. are expected to deliver addresses. Those engaged in agricultural pursuits, will doubtless hear something from Col. Polk which they mar can-r hom fn future use. The public generally is iuj vited, and we doubt notr the attendance will be large. . Walking Race. Five men entered on a walking match at Newbern last week1: they were to go as they pleased 25 miles in the shortest time.. Only two of thei held out to complete the distance one o them at 4 hours and 27 minutes j the other, 4 hours and 33 minutes. Tlie win ner fainted shortly after completing his 25th mile, while the man next to him on coniiug out, stood on his head and seemed not much wearied, Tempebaxce Seruox. -The . Rev. J. Rumple announced from his j pulpit last Sabbath morning, that be would," next Sunday, present the Bible view of intem perance and the use of intoxicating drinks. Tlie Rev. J. J. Renn expects to preach, Sunday week; on Prohibitory law" with especial reference to the liquor traffic. The Wilmington papers advert to a general desire of the people there to close stores and suspend business on i the 20th instant, iu honor of tho Mecklenburg Declaration. Tlie day will be observed at Charlotte with all tho nsual formal ities and ceremonies, and : will no doubt be an occasion of much interest to those who wait npon litem. Some of the busi ness houses of. Siatesville will . suspend business, aud the military will be out on that day throughout the State. Now- ob Never. The ! last Congress passed an act limiting the Act of July 4th, 1864, which provides for the payment of; claims against the Government for property taken from citizeus by the Fed eral troops during the war. The limita tion is fixed on claims filed on or before the 1st December, 1879. Those persons haying such claims will therefore improve the time from now uutil December to have them filed, "otherwise, after that time, they will not be received. u A Speck of War." Under this head the newspapers report a difficulty between two North Carolina representatives in Con gress Kitchen and Russell our represen tative Mr. Armfield, acting as the friend of the former with the view to an adjustment. The difficulty grew out of words uttered in debate. They have been "woohng" each other and making themselves famous in a way not profitable to their constituents or the country. They are the sort to get up Daa Diooa ana cause miscniet. 33PTbe trial of Dr. Talmage, at Brook lyn, N. Y., having resulted in his acquittal and an expression by Presbytery of undimin ish confidence and good wishes, the Doctor turned loose upon his most active prosecu tors a battery of words which surprised all and left matters rather awkwardly mixed. The case on appeal goes up to Synod. There are signs of a pretty hot section al feeling coming on to disturb the peace Of the country between this and the next Presidential election. It will come by the determined efforts of the republican party to hold tlie reins of power, right or wrong. We acknowledge invitations: to attend the Commencement Exercises of David- sou College, Mt. Pleasaut College, Trini ty College, Yadkin Institute, Trap Hill Institute, and a picnic at Cool Spring Academy. Wo are very much obliged and regret we cannot visit them all. The Statesvillc American thinks Hon. W. M. Bobbins the strongest Democrat in the State for Governor, in 1880; and ex-Judge Furchess the strongest Republican for Lt. Governor. The editor is looking out for Statesville's chances in the next election for distinguished honors and calculates wisely. The Government scheme for preven ting the spread of yellew fever by freez ing the germs of the disease iu in fee ted ships, &c, has proved a failure. A negro root aud herb doctor is in Mecklenburg jail on the charge of killing three of his children by dosing them with his decoctions.
