Jones, - and Connor, and Tumlin and John Brown, and a host of other big farmers in the county. They have all got rich, enough to leave . home when they ; please and send their children off to college, but still they are not happy. .They seem to think we have been doing something against them, but ! declare I have not. -They say. they want a warehouse and a loan from the government, so they can hold their, cotton and force the manufacturers to pay 15 cents pound for it. Just so, tbe great west wants ware houses for their grain, so as to make us pay $2 a .bushel for wheat and $1 for corn. If this thing all happens what is to become of me? T won'r have more than a shirt and a half all the year round, and my wife will wear her eyes out patching undergarments. Carl and Jes sie won't have but one biscuit a piece and nothing but Waters to carry to school. What will become of the shoemaker and the blacksmith and the carpenter and the brickmason and the day laborer? What will become of : all : the poor lolks an the negrots -and the cotton, pickers? J have before me the tables of the last cen sus, and find that there are 4,250,0(10 farmers and planters in the United States, and there are 13,000,000- laborers, toilers, working peopled who are not farmers. There are over 3,000,- 00Q laborers-o:i the .farms who work for wages. W hat will they say to flour at $5 a 100? There are over 1,000,000 me chanics and nearly as many railroad operators and half as many milliners and; factory hands, women and children. What is to become of them if the farmeis get up a corner on the necessaries of life? One of England's greatest statesmen was . Richard ' Cobden, :r whose powerful . ppeeches abolished the duty on grain, and the in, pcription on his monument is, hHe gave the poor cheap bread." - . I tell you my farming friends, this thing . will - not do. You nave gone far beyond reason in your demands. Demagogues have led you astray I say it considerately -d e m a g o g u es have led you far away from the original purpose of your order. Don't you know that you will never live to see your cotton in a government warehouse? Don't -yon know that you will ne er see a dollar of that $64,000,0U that vour leaders say is coming right away from England to aduahca on your cotton? Don't you know that all these prom ises are a delusion and a snare and will fade into mist after the elections are over? I do co ifess to some grief and mortification over the credulity of my farm ing friends. I feel but little in terest irpolitic3. My politics is for the south to go on prosper ing as, she hab done since the war. The farmer, the laborer, the mechanic, the merchant every class has prospered. Dil igence in business, and a con tented' disposition will make us all happy. There are no people upon ear tli that have as. much to be thankful for as we have. I feel like I am alone in these views, fori know that the press is against me, and most of the people, but t feel be tter for hav ing had my say whether it plea- es anybody or not. I see poli. ticianfi dancing.; and prancing around the alliaLce, and talking big about corn and cotton who don't know the difference be tween a bull-tongue and a twis ter. Heard of one the other day who said that there would be a veryshort crop of cotton for he had noticed that the red bios- soms were an iaumg on. . no said that just a9 soon as a poor farmer hadanytbing to sell the price went aowa. uowon was down, and fodder had dropped from 82 a hundred to SI. andi sweet potatoes . had- already gone down to 60 cents. .a bushel,' and in two months from '.now corn would fall 25 or 50 per cent. We must have a big ware's house, "said he, an score the produce and keep it'until- the speculators and the monopolist are whipped out.

The Weldon New' says of iti 4 "The- bones jjof ii some .huge monster i are i foupd withlu the borders of this: connty. One of those bones is of considerable sizes; it spans Fishing; Creek. which forms the boundrv line. between . Halifax, and Nash counties, and is firmly embeded on each shoret The length, of the bone is, unknown as no one has ever tried to find out. The creek where this bone crosses is 30teetwide. The species of ani mal in which this bone belongs is not known, but are thought to be a part of the skeleton of some prehistoricanimal of im mense size." - ',. We have known of this boue for thirty years. The late Prof. Kerr examined it as did some men - from Philadelphia. The stream is nearer forty feet 5 wide. The bone is in either bank; ex tending across the"deep stream and is a foot or so under water. Sixty years ago it was above the water-and was used as a crossing. Prof. Kerr" easily re cognized what it was. It ia the vertebrae -of a whale and ia about 110 feet Jeng. Prof. Kerr said" 90 feet were exposed and from the shape of it about' 20 feet were iu the bank he sup posed. He took out one of the articulations or Joints and car ried it to the State Museum at Raleigh where it can now be 83en. About fourteen miles from that bone and about one mile this8ide of Halifax Professor Kerr excavated at the bottom of a ravine, some forty feet deep we suppose, (for we have seen it) the nnder jawbone of & whale. That also was taken to the State Museum. The Professor of Geology, etc, at Yale Universi ty had a drawing of it made by Rev. Dr. Robert 3- Moran, who was tne nrst man or. science to examine - it. He pronoanced it the under jawbone and his opinion was confirmed by the Yale Professors. We saw the bone when Dr. Moran caused part some eleven feet to be exposed. We saw many marine shells first uncovered, and mark you probably forty feet under the earth. What the expla nation? Simply this: From Petersburg, Va., to Wilmington, N. C, the entire section of the country was once under the sea. There can be no doubt of this. Tbe bones of whales could not be found one hundred miles from tha present boundaries of the Atltutic Ocean unless- where now is land was once covered by wa'er. Riding nincror 10 mil es west of Halifax along an nn broken fiat, deep sandy road, you come to a hill, with a total change of soil and from that first abrupt hill (you do not go first down and up, strik the hill) y ou,go up and down for tbe next hundred miles or more. Here were the limits of .the great oceau no .doubt. Wilmington Messenger. . REM J BKABLE RESCUE.

It was a strom?, earnest and eonviucing plea to the white men of North Caroli na to present an unbroken front in order to preserve their liber ties. Hescorned the intima tion that the Farmers' Alliance. even in an indirect way, w hid be re ponsible for the defeat of the Democratic party, and he showed that the relief needed by the farmers could be gained only in the Democratic party. He did not believe that the Demo cratic party had always lived up to its principles, but he did know. that its prinslples, if car ried but, would bring relief to the farmers and all others. So strongly aidhe believe in the Democratic principles that he said,' though" of Whig parentage, if his father had lived and the old parties had remained, his conviction would have caused him to differ with his father and join his fortunes to the cause of Democracy; I His remarks upon the neces sity of settling all differences in the Democratic party at the primaries, and then supporting and electing the nominees, w hether personally acceptable or not, were apt; telling and to the point He pointted out that .he real fight was in the prima ries in North Carolina. At the polls there can be no division among white men bo long as the great negro column stands un broken and compact. divide is to give control to the negro party. :- ' . p''::f He emphasized his position along this line and was loudly cheered and applauded, But valuable and important and pa triotic as his utterances were in favor of white supremacy and the need of a thorough organi zation, the part of his speech to Which we desire to call particu lar attention, and to commend, is that in which he said that there was no desire upon the part of the' Alliance anywhere to antagonize men because of their profession or calling. The Alliance: has" loftier aims and holitr purposes, and he believed that three-fourths of the Dem ocrats in North Carolina who did notielong.ito the Alliance were in earnest' and hearty ac cord-- with i-the Alliance in the great fighf it is snaking for fin ancial and other reforms. So far from desiring to antagonize them said Mr. Beddingfield, the mem bers of the Alliance extend to them their grateful thanks and high appreciation for the noble efforts they are making to ad vance the cause of equal justice; We shall not trust ourselves to quote his just and proper tribute irrthe great army of profession al and business - men in North CarbliBa" who are laboring -.to secure the ' same end that the Alliance has In view. : Nor is it necessary- Happy as-his words were-it is the' sentiment that we desire to emphasize. In thus paying :;a deserved"tnbute to the men who, though not eligible to membership in the order, are doing I much to carry out the fundamentalprinciples of the Alliance " - and Democracy (for they are the same)tMr. Bedding field ga ve f xpre;ssIon to the sen tlmeut of every patriotic mem ber of the Alliance. ; There ia no feel ing among the patriotic Allian ce men against a man : because of his profeHsioor or calling. Whatever ' has- emed like it has been aHemporary ebul lition, and cannot last: and it ha beenjcaoatd by incorrect - informa tion and hasty action.' It is no more a part of Democratic priocU pies. It Is aflame which quickly barns oat." The real position oi the Alliance ia one' of sntaeoaism and hatred of evil traditions and unjast laws and men who are re sponsible for them, and not of dis trust or. hatred of ' a class. If a faVmer . seeks to perpet nate tbe j evils nnder which they softer, they are as much his enemy as if he were'a lawyer or a doctor or a bankers The Alliance looks k be ynd a man's profession into bis principles and his acts, xney are tbe ; tests.
