Of the four indicted bribe-givers, Koshay is dead, Kerr and Richmond await trial, while Jake Sharp is trying to make nn his uiind which is better, to die or slay ill jail. How will it be with their Chicago brothers. The Secretary of the Interior says that Wm. Iledgpeth, ex-private in the 42d Indiana volunteers, cannot have a Pension. Hedgpeth was captured in 8G3 and confined at Andersonville. After remaining in captivity h months he enlisted in the Confederate army, he says, to escape starvation and so informed his fellow prisoners aud that at first chance he would desert, aud, if possible, make his way back to his old command. After a short ser vice in the Confederate army he car ried out his intention and finally reach ed his old regiment, in which he served nntil discharged. Some years ago Hedgpeth applied for a pension oil the ground of disability contracted while in the Federal se?vice. This fact was fully sustained, Ou the subject of Mixed Schools, the Richmond State says : "Mixed schools ? Is a question beside which the tariff, the currency, the internal revenue, States1 right, all shrivel into nothing ness, There is hardly a white man in the South who would not rather double the present duties, who would not rather see the tax collector despoil him of bis whole hard--won crop and who would rather see every remaining right of the State relinquished and flee with unfaultering faith to the shelter of a Centralized government than to see the races mingling together in the jbcial intercourse ofrthe public schools. ' A sad state of affairs prevails at Morehead, Rowan county, Kentucky, growing out of the feud with, and the killing of Craig Tolliver. The town is almost deserted with the exception of a patrol of forty men that patrols the jtreets day and night with Winchester rifles. Every business house is closed pud the doors nailed up, with the ex ception of one small grocery store and saloon that is kept by the widow of Craig Tolliver. The governor has re fused to order troop there, and the nherif! says he will not go to More head to attend court unless troops are An eleven year old colored girl in South Carolina has been sentenced to be hanged for giving a baby poison that she Was hired to nurse. She does not seem to comprehend the enormity of her crime nor the enormity of her sentence. It seems ridiculous that a child of her age should suffer the death penalty, anJ :t is to be hoped that the " Governor will interfere and not let the name of South Carolina be disgraced by any such action. It is about time to give the President a rest on this invitation business. Com mittees of citizens from here, there and everywhere, are goiug to Washington to invite him to visit them, while he is sending out telegrams all over askiur them not to do it, This committee of one hundred business is about run in the ground. y The "Charlotte Observer" No More. i iic nmw hi i uc v'lnoirc fjttscrcfr was yc-tcr Ihv rlosed up aod thie business ot'thc ottice was suspended.

The Paramoaat Duty of ths Democratic Party. ME GfcEAT PROBLEM OP TAX BEDUC TION VIEWED FROM DIFFERENT STANDPOINTS. A Letter on the Subject Carlisle. Erom Speaker From the St. Louis Republican. Washington. Reduction of taxation is the one great duty confronting the Fiftieth congress. Especially upon the Democracy does this burden rest, since it controls the lower house, where alone can Che necessary legislation originate. So far factional diifereuces have prevent ed party action,1ut the time has coinc when factions must disappear aud -a united, harmonious party rise to meet the ; grave responsibilities of the hour. This uo uemoerat wm assume to aispuie. Two vital questions cau such a union of clashing factions be cneeted? w m ae two wings move together at the coming session? are on the tongue of every Dein- ocrat who ha3 tee fyiy of his party and the welfare of his country at heart The Republican believes it is practica ble to make the union and is more than Willing to lend what aid it can to accom plish that most desirable result. With a view to give substantial assistance in the good work, the Republican's Washington correspondent has obtained expressions of opinion on this subject from the lead- j ing Democratic members of the House. JJy personal correspondence carried on during the past month, the '"representa tive Democrats of the house, the men who are the recognized leaders, especially upon the great economic issues, were so licited to furnish for publication iu the Republican, a statement of their views. The respouses received are printed below and will be found of exceeding and sig nificant interest. In this Democratic symposium every shade of party seuti mentjias expression through its acknowl edged and accepted exponents in the house, so that the temper of the Demo cratic majority in that body is authorita tively and accurately presented. The letters speak for themselves and need no comment. SUGGESTIVE INTERROGATORIES. In asking these statements the corres pondent of the Republican presented five interrogatories, intended to suggest points upon which it was believed information would be especially pertinent, but ex plained that these might be answered either generally or separately a specifi cally, as might be found preferable. It was intimated that the Republican was strongly inclined to favor reduction by cutting dollar for dollar otf both classes of taxation, internal aud tariff, that seeming much like a real compromise, but at the same time realized the diffi culty in effecting an agreement on the tariH half of such a bill. Having this in iew, the members whose opinions were solicited were asked to point out in some general way, if possible, a line of mutual concessions which would leave each wing of the party reasonably satisfied with the right. The interrogatories presented were as follows : , 1. Is there a practicable basis of com promise through which the Democrats of the house can unite. 2. Would an equal cut of internal aud tariff taxes afford such a basis? 3. Assuming this acceptable, is it fea sible to carry the element of compromise into the selection of the tariff schedule? 4. Are there concessions of any other kind the majority of the party can offer without sacrifice of principle? &. Would a caucus" further the accom plishment of t he desired end ? FROM SPEAKER CARLISLE. Representave Carlisle of the Coving ton (Ivy.) district, having been speaker of the bouse in the Forty-eighth and Forty-ninth congresses, is better entitled than any other man to speak-as to the probabilities of legislation, A letter of enquiry was sent him at hfs home in Covington, but he was absent at Winches ter, Ky., engaged in the trial of an im portant wi 1 case. The letter from the Republican finally reached him there and iu response he sent the subjoined state ment of his views. Although brief, Mr. Carlisle's statement will be found to the point and full of cheering promises. Writing from Winchester under date of June 30, he says: In inv opinion the revenue will bo re duced at the next session. I haxe ex pressed this opinion frequently heretofore and have seen no reason to change it. The necessity for an immediate reduction of the revenue in order to prevent a large accumulation of money in the treasury, is so great aud so apparent that I do not think congress can afford to delay the consideration of the subject. There will, of course, be differences of opinion as to the manner in which the reduction shall be made, but these can be, and ought to be reconciled upon some basis which will secure substantial relief. J. G. Carlisle. The Ramie Plant It has been frequently suggested that the Ramie plant might be successfully grown in this vicinity. The following, therefore, from the Savannah Heat, may be of inti r est in this section: "Mr. George .Gibson of Pittsburg, Pa., is on a visit to the south in the interests of tie Pittsburg Ramie Manufacturing Company, recently organised in that city. It is inten ded the Company to select sitjs for and es tablish one or more nurseries for the grow ing of the Ramie fibre plant, and it de sires to interest some prominent planters in this locality in its culture, and thus devel op that branch of industry at once. Mr. Gibson is the inventor of a machine for de corticating ramie, and the Company which has been organized under his patents, has for its stockholders gentlemen weil known to the business public..' An Evening Taper. Messrs. M. C. Wallace, W, M. Woodsidcs and J. K. P. N"eat'erly, all practical print ers, and the tw first nameir formerly em ployed at the Observer, office have arranged to bejiin the publication, iu this city, of an evening daily paper to be called The Hor net.

To the Watchman ; Your readers of the present time have doubtless almost for gotten this as one of the watering places in this State. The W lute sui pilar tne ! rn.i.w.llr tha mlv t ill 1 1 r V Springs have loomed up into importance of late years, eclipsing such places as this, and the -'Healing Springs" two ' miles South of this place, which, a few years ago, were in high esteem, in evi dence of the estimate once put on the waters of "Summerville" it may be men tioned that it was once owned aud (in the summer months) occupied by Rev. Archi bald Baker, former pastor of 1st Presby terian chureh of Salisbury. The late D. A. DaVis became half owner of the premi ses in the mean while, and built here a large aud very convenient house for the accom odation of his family; and our fellow townsman, Mr. John M. Horah, also built a large aud comfortable house and occupied it with his family several sea sons. During the war these buildings were mostly without occupant in sum mer, and ever since, only now and then until they have fallen into decay; and if ever much used again, will have to un dergo considerable repairs. They all need new roois, ana new ooaros in some . , . . of the piazzas and other exposed parts, to make them comfortable places for summer residences. The Davis house must have cost four or five huudred dol lars, and was fitted up with glass win dows, aud iu a style of completeness too valuable to go to waste. The Baker res idence is too far gone for repairs, and will soon tumble to the ground. It is rather a sorrowful memento of so good a man, who is doubtless now inhabiting a mansion in 4y father's house." There are fifty acres in the Summer ville tract, which includes two springs of mineral water. It is held by Mr. O. D. Davis of Salisbury. The laud is of poor grade for agricultural purposes, but in cludes a good deal of valuable timber. It is nearly all rocky, and a part of it is underlaid with a bed ot granite of un known extent and value. It has never been quaried. The mineral water relied on for health purposes here is almost like if not exact ly the same as that of "Healing springs," for many years a noted place of resort for sickly women aud children, who rarely if ever failed to be benefited by the use of it. The late ltev. Mr. Baker and tlie late D. A. Davis satisfied them selves of this fact before they became iu trrested iu this property. The water of the secoud spring on this place differs material from the first; but the writer is uot iufbruied as to its qual ities. Summerville is situated on a rocky knoli, splendidly shaded with native for est trees. A small mountain otf mile in front, and Julius Sumners more pre tensions "Chalk mountain 2 miles south, with a piece of meadow intervening. A good country road passes within 40 yards of the buildings, affording an easy outlet to the public road leading from Lexing ton, Linwood and Salisbury to Denton, Jackson Hill, &c. With the exception of a mile or two at Flat Swamp creek, the publi j roads are good; so that it is no dif ficult thing to reach the place from either of the towns' mentioned. Persons who want to "go to the Springs" for health who wish to have an easy do-nothing, go as you please, time; who arc either unwilling or unable to pay the fancy prices of the more magnificent and sumptuously furnished, can be suited here, or at Healiug Springs. The pres ent owners of the latter place have put up the rent of shanties at two or three times as compared with former rates; but they have done some work on the build ings to make them more comfortable and are, perhaps, entitled to something more. There is one serious drawback at these place: There are no bears in the exten sive woods; no panthers or wild cats; no old, ten-prong bucks or graceful doe's; and if there is any salmon, brook trout, or even "blue cats" in flat swamp creek we have not heard of them. There may be some buck rabbks, but have had no occasion to a make cross mark in the road and spit into it, to turn away bad luck for one of them crossing our path. Grass hoppers, katydids and trees abound in great plenty, affording all the comfort and nappines3 to man which they were designed to do. B. Heilig's Mill, N. C, July 28, 1S87. Editor Watchman: The farmers are through with most of their hard work and are taking a littie rest. We are hav ing plenty of rain. The farmers are in good spirits over the present prospects for a good crop of corn and cotton. Mr. M. A. J. Bost has lost a valuable horse quite recently. M. J . larger raised the largest crop of wheat in this vicinity (H2i bushels.) Mr. B. says if any one has beat that on a two horse farm in Gold Hill or Littakers township let him make it known through the Watchman. I understand that M. J. Barger got the contract to build the Organ Church par sonage for $315. Last Thursday was the Gold Hill town ship Sunday School Convention at Organ Church. There was a large crowd pres ent to enjoy the exercises of the day. A thief or thiefs has visited Alferd Mil ler's spring house quite recently and took his butter. The farmers are pretty jolly as the watermelons are plentiful. H. W. Bost, with his never failing hounds, captured a fox last Saturday moruing in one hour and a half.
