Press, says A special dispatch to the Albany Journal from New York states, as one of the political rumors following upon the official count that Rosco Conkling is booked for Sec retary of State in Cleveland's cabinet, and that this appointment will be the only recognition the bolting Republi cans will receive at the hands of the ad ministration. Gov. Cleveland's atten tion being called to the statement, said that this was the first he had heard of JAi".

The Governor don't seem to be easily thrown off his balance. No doubt he U thinking a great deal on the respon sibilities of the Chief Magistracy of the country, and, it may be, is devising me thods for his proceedure, and selecting agents to assist him. But it would on ly do harm to publish his thoughts and purposes before the time, and so he per mits nothing on these subjects to escape his lips. He is right. Burning Corn in Nebraska. Farmers in many parts of Nebraska are burning corn lor fuel. They have figured the matter out to their own satisfaction and are confident that it is cheaper to burn corn than it is to sell it and buy coal. Soft coal is worth in that State about 22 cents a bushel and corn does not find a ready sale in the rural markets tor more than 12 cents. Experiments have shown that two bush els of corn will produce more warmth than one bushel of coal, and farmers are thus burning the former and saving themselves the trouble of hauling it to market and drawing the coal as a back load. Chicago Herald. There is nothing in this to encourage a North Carolinian to go to Nebraska. He can't raise as much corn here as he might there, but one bushel in North Carolina is worth from four to eight times as much as it is there. An Interview with Old Zeb. i ii Tie Asheville Citizen says ; "Senator Vance thinks the South will have repre sentation in the Cabinet. He desires no place for himself, as he is satisfied with his present position, to which he will be re-elected next wiutcr. He left for Wash ington Saturday evcuing to be present at the opening of Congress Monday. He said the last letter received from Mrs. Vance, who is iu Washington, urged him to hurry on, as 'the house was full of lettenyand some outside arrangement must be made for them,. and all were asking for office.'

Flags were also flouted fiom the maatq of public buildings and all of the hotels, U. S. Marshals antl a Free Ballot, Mr. Foilt'tt, f Ohio, has introduced a it-solution in. the House to investigate the conduct of a United States marshal in his State. It is known that the maiv shals behaved most shamefully in Cincin nati and that citizens were actually shot down and killed. '1 ho hearing of the marshals was such that people were in- himidated am) for the purpose of preven ting a fair election. The matter ought to be inquired into and then the Con gress out to wipe out 1 lie infernal system that lias been used to abuse and brow beat Democratic electors and to help fasten upon the country the most de structive rule. There is nothing repub lican or democrat ic in rucIi a system. It is a disgrace to our boasted civilization and to any free government. Let justice lie done though the heavens fall. Let a close scrutiny be had, and hew to the line, let the chips fall where they may. Let all Federal intervention in elections have a speedy end, and let the last of me rascals uc turned out anil be kept out. The Washington Post takes the right "It is for the ascertainment of facts that the investigation is ordered. It is in the interest of peace, justice and lib erty that it should be prosecuted. "Federal interference with the machin ery or local elections has been produc tive of mischief only, from the outset. It originated in a spirit of sectional par tisanship and has been exercised for scctioually partisan ends--nothing else. If it has been more insolent or arbitrary or iudeceut at one time or in one place than another, it has been no less odious in its nature no less subversive of free suffrage iu its operation." The country demands a free ballot. It does not exist in many sections in the North, and it cannot exist auy where with the system of the Federal interference continued. WU. Star. An Interview With Cleveland. Wilmington Review. Mr. Thomas V. Strange, after an ab sence of about ten days on a trip to the North, arrived here Tuesday morning. During his abseuce he made a flying vis it to Albany, where he had the pleasure of meeting with President-elect Cleveland. Mr. Strange was un earnest advocate of Mr. Cleveland's nomination for the Pres idency at the National Convention, and worked faithfully to secure his election after he was nominated, aud that having been accomplished, he had a strong desire to see the man for whom his labor and vote had been giveu. Mr. Strange returns with very pleasant memories of his short interview with the President-elect. In the course of the conversation President Cleveland stated that he desired to visit the South, and would do so before long if he could. The President spoke of the great importance to the country of the election, aud stated that it would proba bly give the Democracy a lease of power for many years. Our Swamp Lands. CAN THEY. BE EEVLA1MLD BY . COS VICT LABOR? If so, welt Have More Corn and More Schools, and Show More SAW Than our Fathers. From the Raleigh C hronicle. I see it is stated that several thousand acres of swamp land in Eastern Carolina have recently draiued by cutting a canal. If the statement is true, 1 wish to ask if it would uot be a good policy for the next General Assembly to provide for the draining of the lands owned by the State Board of Education by means of convict labor f The railrdad system of the West has been completed by convict labor, and would it not be just to the East to have its fertile corn lands reclaim ed by the same means f If these swamp lands of the State Board of Education can be successfully drnined, they can be sold for a handsome sum j and ifthia is done, we will not be left dependent on the "Blair Bill" and county apportionments, but cau make a creditable apportionment from our State funds for the public schools of the State. Not only this, but the purchasers of these. lands would iu future pay a round sum in State and county taxes on property which has yielded nothiug iu the way of reveuaejn tho past I know that immense suras have been expended in efforts to reclaim these lauds, but 1 wish to ask the practical aud progressive young men of the East if they have not some plans to suggest for the successful draining of the "Egypt of Carolina t" Seeming impossibilities have been over come in the construction of our Western railioads, and it remains to be seen what engineering skill can do towards the de velopment of the immecsely fertile fields of the East. j. B x Democratic Society in Washington. It is safe to say here that, so f ar as an ofhcial example will be set at the White IJouse, society will be less extravagant, less pretentious, less hypocritical and more republican in its tastes and conduct. W heather President Cleveland wiU drink tea like Hayes, or Sunday-school lemonade like (iarfie! or take his Bur gundy like Arthur, is of little conse quence, but there is arprofound convic ? Washington that there will not be a horde ot contractors, spelcuators, lobbyists and jobbers in the White House to-help him drink it. The whole character and conduct of the man in public life gives rise to the belief that he will restore to the President's offi cial life something of the dignified sim plicity which characterized the White House in olden times.-N. Y. World. Washington Letter. From On r Regular Correspondent. Washington, D. C, Dec. 0, 1334. Tho first week in Congress has been passed iu comparative ieaee. The House and Senate assembled in the bright dou ble daw u of a perfect Monday morning and an approaching Democratic adminis tration. The President's valedictorv mes sage was received and read with the usual foriuallities. The tariff which it was said might not, could, would, and should not come up this winter, "bobbed up serenely" on the first day of the ses sion, and it is more than probable that it will bob up again and again during the pieM.MiL session. The most prominent question in American politics Uwhiv is I how to deal with the mi ml us revenues. and th;s question caunot be treated with out stepping on the very sensitive toes of tariff. The revenues of the government exceed the expenditures by more than one hundred millions annually. This is simple enough. What shall be done with this surplus this dead capital? Ah! there's the rub. Some sav : build navies. deepen harbors, dig d tches. Others sav : apply it to the extinction of the national debt. A school of homeopathic states men (and they are not so bad either) wish to cheapen postage and patents, and im prove mail facilities. A school of aJJo blankets, free sugar, and free raw mate rial. A dangerous quack and charlatan proposes the unconstitutional remedy of distributing the "root of all evil" among the Mate governments. Mr. Hurd and Mr. Hewitt are anxious to do something this session. Mr. Carlisle is of opinion that nothiug can be accomplished in the sixty-three working days that remain to the present Congress. But sooner or la ter something must aud will be done. The supreme question of the times con not be evaded by Congress forever. Mr. Blaine arrived in the city yester day with his family and drove to the ele gant house he has rented from ex Senator Windoiu. It is said he will resume work on his alleged history. The candidate looks quite as well as when he left the city last Juue, 1 mean his health appears to be as good as then, but the cyclonic agitation of his vaulting ambitious life have given him a ruined, demonical sort of an expression. Gen. Logan looks that way too, but he is used to it, aud is not as much cast down as he appeared to be seven years ago when the great Western independent party Judge David Davis beat him iu the race for the Senate. The Democratic party members and Senators are brimful of happiness, but they carry their joy more decorously than many expected, only a few of them slop over. It is on the Washington government clerk that the pall of defeat lias settled like a wet blanket. It may be seen iu the "dejected havior of his visage," iu his heavy gait, in his voice from which the dehant note has departed. He would be an object of pity if he were more man and patiiot and less a soulless pnrtizau aud heartless mercenary. It is impossi ble to have compassion ou the thieves who stole the presidency iu 1876, or on their dependents who have oaten the bread of theft so long. There is much talk about the inaugu ration, and the dedication of the Wash ington mouumeuc. Admiral Dupont's monument will also be dedicated this winter. Monuments bid fair to be the principal industry of the capital city, aud the next census will show a wonderful increase of bronzed Generals, Admirals, horses, etc. Several more statues are under way, and it is a curious fact that uot half of the residents of Washington kuow who half of the statues are for. Lincoln, Washington aud General Scott have two apiece, and a small squadron ot generals of the late war have equestrian statues. We are the strongest and least warlike of all the nations of the earth, and yet we have a larger number of mon uments to war than France or Germany. There is a strong inclination among Democrats to retain to the simplicity of the fathers in the inauguration of the President-elect. Thomas Jefferson be strode his good horse and rode alone to the capitol, tied his horse to a post and went iu aud took the oath of office. Mr. Cleveland might do the same thing. The post has been removed, but he could get a colored citizen to hold tho horse for five cents. Completed After SO Years. Hie Capstone of the Washington Monu ment Laid and the Work of Many Year's Finished. Washington, Dec. C. The long ex pected completion of the Washington monument wns accomplished this after noon by setting iu place the marble cap stone aud its pyramidal apex of alumi num. Tho ceremonies were few and simple, an- elaborate celcbratiou of the ereut being reserved for Washington's birth day. Shortly after 2 o'cloek Col. Thomas L. Casey, government engineer in charge, aud his assistauts Captain Davis, U. S. A., aud Bernard It. Green, civil' engineer, together with master me chanic, MeLaughliug and several work men standing on a narrow platform built around the sloping marble room near the summit proceeded- to set the capstone, (weighing 3,300 pounds) which was sus pended from the quadruped of a heavy joint supported by a platform and totr eriug forty feet above them. As soon as the capstone was set and the American flag was unfurled overhead a salute of 21 guns was promptly fired by Maj. Hannemans, militia battery iu White House grounds far below. The souud of cheers also came up faintly from the crowd of spectators gathered around the base of the monument, while numbers of invited guests on tlje 500 foot platform and in the interior of the monument at that level spontaneously struck up "Star Spangled Ban uer" and other pat riotic songs. The steady downpour of rain had given place a little previously to a brisk gale of wind at this elevation (blowiug at about 50 miles an hour) and very few of the invited guests cared to avail themselves of the privilege of climbing the nearly perpendicular lad der from the 500 foot platform to the dizzy heigth of 533 feet from which three or lour jourualists and a half dozen other adventurous climbers witnessed the sct ttng of the capstone and subsequently ascended to the pinnacle. Meanwhile the Washington Monument Society re presented by Dr Jos M Toner, Hon Herjfc- tio Bing, (Win McKee Dunn, Dr Daniel H C aud T L Harvey, secre tary, held aeeting the elevator platform at height of 500 feet, and when the a cry firing announced the setting of tlungtone adopted a resolu tion offered iCen. Dunn, "congratula ting the Aunjtn people ou the comple tion of this Turing monument of our nation's graide to the father of his country." Among tlr present today nt the completion o he structure was one of the master ner stone of i hanics who laid the cor t monument 36 years ago, d an old Wchinan of the monument who has bceiifcontiuuously employed iu that capacity bring nearly the whole of tho interveuiij period. The flag oir the monument floated (and will retain fr several days nntil the timbers a I all removed) from a flag stall', the top f which is exactly GOO feet from the grand, thus displaying the American coles at the greatest height of construction ever yet kuown in the world. Tho nonument itself, with its is engraved with un inscription as follows on the face: "Chief Engineer and archi tect, Tims Lincoln Casey, colonel corps of engineers ; assistants, Geo W Davis, 14th U S Infantry; Barnard R Green, civil engineer; master mechanic, P H McLaughlin." On another face ; "Cor ner stone laid on bed of foundation July 4, 1848 ; first stone at the height of 152 feet laid August 7, 1880 : capstone set December C, 1884." Ou third side: "Joint commission at setting of capstone, Ches ter A Arthur, W W Corcoran, chairman. M E Bell, Edward Clark, John Newton ; act of 1870." Ou the fourth face are the words "Laos Deo." THE METHODIST CENTENARY. Fonr Million Members and 23,000 Churches. TJte Prodiyous Growth of the Denomina tion, Which will be lie vie wed at the Ap proach iny Celebration . Raleigh Clironicle. In the year 1878 the General Conference of the Methodist Episcapal Church South, then in session nt Atlanta, Ga., called attention in a series of resolutions to the fact that American Methodism was or ganizL-d in Baltimore in December, 1764, aud made arrangements for calling a Centeuuial Conference at that place about Christmas, 1884. Subsequent conferences, both North and South, have completed those arrangements, and from the 0th to the 17th iust., the Convention will be held in Baltimore, iu tho Mount Vernou Place Church, corner of Charles aud Monument streets. The wonderful growth of Methodism, which, though started iu England aud Ireland by the Wesleys, was immediately transplanted to America, has been as phe nomenal as the growth of the American nation itself. It has beeu called a pecu liarly American denomination. Its prin ciples are as broad as the Doxology itself, and its chief aim is the elevation of indi vidual character by belief in the great possibilities for good iu every human being. Starting in flic United States with about sixty chapels in 1764, and membership of about tweuty thousand in 178(5, just 20 years after the first preaching of the Wes leys iu England, there arc now in the United States about four million Meth odists, with 23,000 churches, and property worth about $74,000,000. The' whole Methodist population is estimated at about twenty five and a half millions, lis organization is as thorough and effi cient as that of the Roman Catholic or Protestant Episcopal Church, and its mission workers are among the foremost in both home aud foreign fields. Mark Twain Visits the Governor. Albany (N.Y.) Journal. Mark Twain aud George W. Cable dined together with the Governor yester day and made a tour of the Capitol. An amusing incident occurred in the course of their travels. They entered tho Adjutant-General's office to pay their respects to that official in the afternoon. The Ad j 11 taut-General was otjj; at the moment, and the part, which included others than the distinguished gentlemen named, dis posed themselves about the office iu easy positions to await General Farnsworth's arrival. Mark Twain, with his usual sangfroid, sat down carelessly ou one of the General's official tables. The party were chatting cheerfully and conducting theinslves when a dozau clerks and depu. ties of the department came rushing into the office, aud with unusual vehemence asked what was wanted. None of the visiting party seemed to understand the situation. Au investigation disclosed the fact that Twain, by accident or design, had planted himslf squarely on a loag row of electric buttous aud thus set ring ing as many call bells.

Ihey are reversing the order of things and are farming to sell and not to buy. In this new move ment Mr. John Wadsworth, of our city, seems to be taking the lead. Two acres of cotton was all the land he devoted to that staple this year, but instead he put down as much of his farm as he could spare in clover. The result is, that af ter feeding a large amount of clover to stock and selling another quantity, he has made seventy-two bushels of clean seed, enough to replant all his old clover land and leave a couple of wagon loads of seeds for him to sell. His clover crop cost nothing scarcely and there was 60 per cent, more protit in it thtm in cot ton. Char. Obs.

By way of a sort of negative platform for the ad ministration of President Cleveland, per mit us to suggest the following : 1. No Gift-Taking. 2. No Nepotism. 3. No Star liouteism or Whiskey Riug- ism. 3. No Belknnpism. 5. No Juuketingut Public Expense. C. No Kitchen Cabinet. 7. No Hypocrisy iu the White House. 8. No Flummery. This would be iu the nature of reform, and that is what the new administration stands pledged to give the country.
