Hard Swearing.
The hardest swearers are universally
recognized as the least to be trusted of
all men who promise. The man who
heaps up oath to hack up his engage

people stand from under as they would
from under a tottering wall. The

it comes up now in a new shape. It is
devoutly to oe hoped that there are
good men enough in the legislature to
defeat this new device to change a sys
tem which has worked to the satistac
tion and good of the State through al
most its entire life. There are men
who would change the color o the sky
if tbev could to g tin personal notoriety.
To dishonor the best labors of those
who devised the present system of
county government, they would subject
to ruiu-nd .desolation one half the
State, if by so doing it would gain them
personal fame; It is theirs to tear
down, not to build up.
A remarkable fraud upon Dr. Tal
mage and the public has just come to
light. It is uo less than a bogus ser
mon written and published under the
name of the distinguished divine. The
text is from Numbers xxxii, 23. "But
if ye will not do so, behold, ye have
sinned against the Lord; and be sure
vour sin will find you out." Dr. Tal
mage says UI never preached a word of
the sermon. 1 never preached irom
that text. The whole thing is a base
deception.'1
This shows the greed of the press
to obtain saleable reading matter. If
they cannot obtain an honest article
they will manufacture a false one. The
fraud is traced to the A. IN. JVellog
Newspaper Co., and its annex the
National Press Co. of New York, Chica
go, and St. Louis. The sermon was
sold as plate matter to the country
newspapers and by them published as
the genuine work of Dr'. Talmage. The
immediate effect will be to depreciate
the labors of Dr. Talmage, for who can
hereafter know whether he is reading
the bogus or the true.

Washingn, B'eb. 21, 1887.
As to wh.it Congress is doing just
now, I may say the Senate is overdoing
he NavaPappropriation business, and
the House is trying to get on with the
regular, indispensable Appropriation
bills. The past week was marked by
some important legislation, prominent hut they
among which was the passage or the
Eads" Tehauntepec Ship Railway bill,
by the Senate and the' rigorous ant'i
polygaray bill by both the Senate and
House.
Yon mav remember that this measure
chief aim and end of this institution is to an
swer this question, to solve this problem, and if
it proves a success, then Mississippi will ueserve
the praise. This college is not yet two years
old, but it is so far a grand success. .Nobody
doubts it now. The nation is looking at it with
increased interest. Committees from Northern
States have visited it and arc still visiting. Dr
Mavo. of Boston, was there a few days ago to
see the actual practical workings ot theinstitu
tion, aud was filled with admiration. These
girls are happily mingling work with study. In
one department they are cutting and htting
dresses and other garments after the most ap
proved methods. In another the washing and
ironing are going on in a laundry that is opera-

but do not do the cooking: but they wash

If there is one institution above an
other in North Carolina that deserves
the undivided support of all good citi
1ens, it is the State University. This
declaration goes without say ing among
the liberal, bio idrminded people of the
Old North State. It is therefore a
matter of concent and regret that the

Every body is wondering whom tlie
President will sippoint on the Inter

of men who have been mentioned for a
pkee, Gen. Atkins, the present Com
missioner of Indian affairs, is one of
the latest. His friends sav he is a man
who could be, officially; as much of a
friend to the railroads as to the people.
Said one of tliem, "He could do justice
to both, and at the same time has moral
orce sufficient to outride the tenipta-
ion of winking at the New York brok
ers for a consideration."
On next Thursday an effort will be
hiade in the House of Representatives
to pass the Pauper Pension bill over
the President's veto, and the Republic-
cans are expected to press the matter to
such an extent that ther ? will doubt
less be a pretty lively fight. The im
pression is, however, that it will be
impossible to overrule the veto.

This is a special proceeding instituted
upon petition by the plaint ifl's adtaiuist ra

added to the industrial pursuits of this institu

calling that woman is peculiarly fitted tor.
How tastily she could arrange each fold and
ringlet: how nicely adjust the position, how
delicately touch the image with her brush and
pencil; how sweetly quiet and restless, timid
children, ami 1 think the young men would
give her the preference, and have tiieir neckties
awry that she might linger them. Here would
be her opportuuity to revel in that harmony
of colors tor which nature gave her love and
skill more than she give to man.

tion in every Southern State Who can esti
mate t he beneficial results that would flow
from them. The leading idea is that of be
giuning at the beginning educating and
training the girls who are to become the
mothers and trainers of children. It dis
cards tbe hereditary notion of indolent
ladyship and introduces thc new thought
of industry and skill in thc useful occu
pations of life as a means of human com
fort and happiness. It is indeed a moral
revolution in domestic ideas by which the
individual is enabled not only to see the
new condition but adapt herself to it.
I hope this Columbus school may arrest
the attention of citizens of the town and
that many of them may raise the inquiry
why not have one in Salisbury ?
I believe here is an opportunity for our
philanthropists to do something for the
