LIMAlfS DEFENCE OF J EFFEKSON
DAVIS.
The death of Justice Lamar has re
called his well known 'devotion to
the Confederacy, and his love for the
leader pf the lost cause" was proudctive
of one of the most dramatic scenes in
the history of our Senate. The Mexi
can Pension bill was under considera
tion and . an amendment pended ex
tending its provisions to all veterans
irrespective of their course iri the war
between the States. It was near
adoption. Congress, it is said, could
best show its desire to forgive and
forget by extending the .benefits oftl
the measure to those who had once
borrre arms against the country. The
amendment was ner.r adoption when
, Senator - Zach Chandler came to his
feet with a short speech in which he
said that while in the main he agreed
to the general tenor of the amend
ment, yet binder its provisions even
Jeff Davis would be restored to citi
zenship. "And," he added, "I am
not prepared to go so far as that.".
Lamar rose. His intense excite
ment was evident. Between him an'd
Chandler a strong personal antagon
ism existed. An outburst was expec
tected, and it came.
"Mr. President," said the Missip
pian, with outstrttched finger point
in at his foeman, his tall- form tremb
ling with emotion, but his voice bell
like in its clearness and without' a
quiver in it. ."when Prometheus lay
bound to the' rock it was not the king
of beasts who availed himself of his
his distress. It w is not any other of
the nobler brutes of the field or birds
of the air. It was the. vultnre, the
scavenger of the animal kingdom glut
toning upon carrion,' which preyed
upon his vitals, knowing that in a de
fenceless man, j who could move
neither hand nor foot, he had one in
t: whose vitals he could dig his beak."
He sat down amid a stillness so
profound that the rustle of a paper
SJunded harshly.. Chandler was
deadly pale. Drops of perspiration
stood upon his forehead and he
clinched the arms of his chair until
the strained wood creaked. It was
expected that he would reply. Tw;ice
hevhalf rose and s-i nk back. He did
not reply. -
The populist and the fuisonist
- Democrats of Kansas have won a
victory in the Kansas senatorship.
Republicans and Stalwart Democrats
affect to regard the election as illegal,
but it will no doubt stick. Judge
Martin will go to the Senate with a
prima lacle case and will in all likeli
hood hold his seat. Not much is to be
said for the manner .in which his
election was secured, but. there appears
to be no question of the purity of h is
Democracy ,and Senator Gorman says
that his election-gives the Senate to
the Democrats. This i something to
rejoice over, to be sure.

House bill 155, -for the relief of
Elizabeth Hall an' applicant Irom
Cumberland county, to be restored
to rights of a pensioner, was put on
its third reading. It was explained
by Mr; Thagard. The applicant was
a widow whose first husband was a
' Confederate soldier who died in New
.York. She subsequently married a
second husband, who had also died
Reaving her destitute.
I Mr. Moore had no opposition to
this special case, : but thought the
passage of the bill would open a bad
precedent. .
Mr. - Lilling ton argued with Mr.
Moore. He thought the second mar
riage would invalidate the claim. It
'might be' a good case, but a bad
precedent.
Mr. Anderson advocated ' the ob
ject of the bill which was to relieve
those who .suffered in the late war.
He hoped the people of North Caro
lina would not go back on their
character. .
: Mr. Watson, of Forsyth, had heard
the statement of the gentleman from
Cumberland. The only reason for
excluding widows w ho married again
was that they-fhen had some one to
take care of them. He did not have
the heart to deny claims like this.
Mr. Vance, of Buncombe, said the
applicant had never drawn any pen
sion. Mr. Moore , objected only to
the precedent, not to the bill. The
example would be followed and the
house flooded J He was ready to
relieve every sufferer m the late war,
but the state is not able to do so.
Mr. Long said he would not vote
for two reasons ; it was not just to the
soldier ; it was just to the one legged
and one armed cripples. He w ished
all could be helped,
Mr. Crouse had opposed the bill,
but there had been legislation in
similar cases. Do not make it a
criminal offence that the widow had
married again to obtain, as it happen
ed, only a short term of relief.
Mr. Anderson demanded the ays
and noes on the passage of the bill on
the third reading. '
Before the vote was taken Mr.
Robertson said he had heard that the
widow had been reduced in circum
stances by her last husband, not
by the war.. Mr. Merritt asked if
Mr. Robertson was right. Mr.
Thagard exonerated Mr. Hall.
The vote was ayes 70, nays 36.
January 26. The Senate today
took up the bill to encourage sheep
husbandry" by taxing dogs. There
was a long debate, and amendments
were offered excluding certain. The
suppprters of tire bill demanded that
the vote be a square one for a dog
law or against it. The bill tailed tq.
pass ayes, 20 ; noes, 27.
The Senate, in executive session,
confirmed the appointment of R. W.
Wharton, of Beautfort county, as
trustee of the Agricultural and
Mechanical College.
. IN THE HOUSE.
The chief bills introduced in the
House were fo make it a mis
demeanor to work operatives in cot
ton or woollen-mills over, eleven
hours a day, or between fhe hours of
10 P. M. and 6 A.M.; to grant
license to physicians who on becom
ing bbna-fide residents exhibit certifi
cates from the Board of Medical
Examiners of another State ; to pro
vide for the division of the State into
nine road districts, and an equal' work
ing the public roads.
The election contest of Long against
Wright, from Warren, ended, result
ing in the seating of Long who was
sworn in.
I-OR;'SOLDIERS AND SAILORS.
. A resolution .was introduced by
Mr. Taylor, of Halifax, raising the
joint . special, committee , to consider
the matter of participation by North
Carolina in the plans for a monument
at Richmond to the private soldiers
and sailors of the Contederacy.
Captain Arthur A. Spitzer, T.
Walker Porter, and Dr. F. C. Hawks
of Richmond, are here as promoters
of what is known as the "Grant
Monument Association," of which, it
is said, a good many colored people
have become members.
A WORLD S-FAIR CONFERENCE.
- Raleigh, N. C. January, 26.
To-day the Exective Committee
of the State Board of World's-Fair
Managers met here with the legisla
tive committee on the fair and had
a conference. Two years- ago the
Legislature appropriated for the
North Carolina 'exhibit $25,00 from
the direct-tax fund. Governor Holt
in August, 1S91 defined to allow any
of that fund to be drawn, saying that
all the fund might be called for. Last
month, however, finding that there
would be a balance on hand, he
allowed $10,000 to be drawn, of
which, $9,000 was used to replace
that amount lent by the agricultural
board. ' Governor Carr suggested in
his. inaugural that the Legislature
make an appropriation 'simply to
make good the appropriation of the
former Legislature. No new appro
priation is asked for. The Execu-1
tive Committee today asked that the
515,000 balance be- allowed. This
will be taken out of the direct fund,
and in case all the, latter is called for
the amount is to be made good.
BACK TAXES.
" - There wras . another conference to
day on the important matter of back
taxes on the Wilmington and Wel
don railway". At this Governor Carr,
the railway commissioned, the joint
committee of the Legislature, and
Mr. Wan en Elliot, president, and
Mr. Harry Walters, general manager
of the Wilmington and Weldon, R. R
were present. '
The discussion' of the matters in
question was prolonged. President
Elliott m'ade a proposition to the
State through the committee and
the commission. This was to sur
render the exemption from taxation
on the main line of the Wilmington
and Weldon road npon. condition
that for the five years next succeeding
this waiver of exemption the main
line should be assessed at' only $10,-.
000 per mile ; the branch lines at $4,
ooo per-mile, and that after five years
the assessment should be rnade as in
the case of all other roads. No con
clusion was reached, and there was an
adjournment until to-inorrow after
noon. . ' '
The colleges report attendance as
follows': Wake Forest, 1S0 ; Guilford
150; Elon, 165; Davidson, 140;
Trinity, 150 the University, 315.
Raleigh, N. C, January 27. In
the Senate today the 6 per cent, inter
est bill; known as the bill for the re
lief of money borrowed, came up on
its third reading. A motion to post
pone was voted down and the bill
passed.
The bill to 'codify the State laws
also passed. It creates-a commission
of three members at $1,500 and a
clerk at $750 per annum.
RESOLUTION OF REGRET.
Senator Pou, chairman of- the
Democratic joint caucus, offered a
resolution of regret at the death of
Mr. Blaine, which was unanimously
adopted by a rising vote. The
House took the same action,
house adjourned as a further
of respect
Both
mark
A bill was introduced to make three
years' absence a ground for divorce.
The Judiciary Committee unani-'
mously reported unfavorably the bill
to allow railways to issue free' passes. '
ARGUMENT CLOSED. (
Before the Railway Commission
and the joint' Committee on Railways
argument in the case of Wilmington's j
right to collect back taxes on..
Wilmington and Weldon railway
property ended this evening.
Governor Carr today appointed
Oliver P. Meares Judge of the Crimi
nal Court for NMv . Hanover and
Mecklenburg. "
There is no doubt that the North
Carolina railway will have to surrender-
its partial exemption lrom
taxation. Mr. Spruill, chairman of
the House Committee on Railways,
so informs me. The matter is now
under consideration by the committee.
Governor Carr's ideas on this import
ant subject -were clearly stated in his
inaugural. He opposses all exemp
tions. 1
. A WEATHER RECORD.
The weather bureau has advices of
an even lower temperature than the
2S degrees below zero recorded at
Sylva. At Bryson City, Swain county
the mercury fell to 34 degrees -be!ow
on the morning of the 1 6th instant.
A special report on the weather will
be made. ' .Thirty inches ol snow fell
at Bryson City.
There is n,ow before the Legislature
a resolution asking Congress to pur
chase a tract of land twelve or fifteen
miles square, including the Grand
father Mountain, at 'the intersection of
Watauga, Mitchell, and Caldwell
counties, and make it a national park
like that of the Yellowstone. It is a
wonderful region, containing the finest
and greatest variety of trees east of
the Mississippi.
LAND SUIT.
Englishmen have purchased 15,000
acres of land in Burke county and
have begun suit against some natives
who have purchased claims to -hese
lands and who are testing the validity
of the title of the English . company.
Thus far the latter have won in the
fight. The company was known as
the North Carolina Real Estate Com
pany, Limited, and was capitalized in
London at 240,000, it is stated.
Raleigh, N. C, January 2S. In
the Senate today a bill was introduced
to incorporate the Virginia and North
Carolina railway, and one. passed in
corporating the Atlantic and Ohio
railway. A bill also passed allowing
justices of the peace to issue subpoe
nas to other counties than their own.
CONFEDERATE MONUMENT.
In the house a resolution was
adopted raising a committee to con
sider an appropriation for construct
ing a -North Carolina Confederate
monument. A . bill , was introduced
to incorporate the State Confederate
Monument Association. Other im
portant bills introduced were to com
pel persons to list their bonds and
stocks for taxation under penalty of
forfeiture ; to provide for the distribu
tion of the school fund by the State
instead of the counties, and to pro
vide for the preparation ,and publica
ticn by the State Hoard of Education
of a uniform system of school text
books. KILLS PASSED.
The principal 'bills passed were to
relieve railways from making annual
reports to the C Governor ; authorizing
the Railway Commissioners to assess
steamships and canal property: to as
sess the entire property of railways
without deduction, and to make regu
lations for the proper handling Jof
baggage by the railways.
. WILL NOT PASS.
Your correspondent has it on good
authority that the bill to allow Wil
mington to collect back taxes from the
Wilmington and Weldon railway will
not pass and that it will be unfavorably
reported.
The proposition made the State by
President Elliott, of the Wilming
ton and Weldon, will.not be accepted,
and the property of that road will be
subjected
to taxation on precisely
the same looting as other railways.
The authorities of the Wilmington
andWeldon are perfectly willing to
do what the legislature desires, pro
vided the city of Wilmington is not
permitted to enforce such a claim as
it makes. There are two other roads
having exemption from taxation -on
road-bed which will be required to
surrender it. These are the North
Carolina and Cheraw roads. The
preparations are now being made to
put all these roads on precisely the
same footing;
A COMPLICATION.
In the case, of the North Carolina
road your correspondent' is advised
of a singular complication. There is
$4,000,000 of capital stock, of which
the State holds $3,000,000, and pri
vate stockholders $1,000,000. It
may be that if the. State forces this
road to give up its exemption from
this road-bed the private stockhol
ders will attempt to enjoin Governor
Carr from carrying the law into
effect.- Some of them are already
moving in this matter. They claim
that is a contract between the State
and the railway company giving the
road -certain exemptions and declar
ing that its road-bed free of taxation.
They contend that while the
State can .control the stock for
business purposes it cannot take
away this exemption which, they
assert, would be an act injurious to
the
private stock. The number of
private stockholders in this important
property is large.
Raleigh, N. C, January 30
The principal bill in the Senate was
to provide for the completion of the
Colored Agricultural College at
Greensboro. A resolution was intro
duced providing for the erection in

North Carolina. A resolution of re- !
speet to the memory of Justice La-1
mar was adopted by a rising vote, j

MOKALtOSE.
It is comparatively easy to measure
with the eye the growth and develop
ment of a boy in stature, and to mark
the agencies that contribute to or
detract from his healthy development.
It is also easy to study with definite
satisfaction to the mind the moral de
velopment of the individual and to
know something of the forces that
hinder or encourage his growth in
character ; but when, a whole commu
nitv is considered so complex is its
organization ; and so mulifarious the
elements that enter into its composi
tion.we find it difficult to regard it as
possessing sufficient unity and one
ness to allow anything like a study ol
it as a whole. But every community
and every town does have an anatomy
of its own, a character peculiar
to itself, and if the intelligent citizens
of this community and of this town
cf Wilson would open their eyes to
blaring, glaring facts they would soon
discover that while in many things
we are to be congratulated, hospital
ity, kindness,- fellow feeling, cce., yet
as a community there is an indisput
able lack and need of Moral Tone.
Lo ! marly good men and women w ho
live in a moral atmosphere of their
own all the time, this impreachment
doubtless seems baseless.
The social requirements generally
insisted on before one is admitted
into the social circle of a community
are good breeding, respectable' dress,
respected family and in some places
personal purity"and soberness. These
regulations are the output of the, so
cial legislature striving to protect it
self. When any society manifests a
disposition to let up on the enforce
ment of any one of these laws it un
avoidably illustrates 0 the candid
observer a lesson of the moral tone
and stamina needed to enforce its re
quirements. Put a pin there. So
ciety is responsible for every crime it
does not "punish its members. II a
legal -criminal go unpunished the
Goddess of Justice bleeds not only at
one but at every pore because the
principal for which' she stands has
been outraged. Thus the social cir
cle in anv community bleeds and suf
fers at' every point of social honnor
wfien. it allows uncensured and un
punished' any infraction of its moral
regulations.' If this has ever hap
pened in the town of Wilson, who is
responsible ? Not you ; not I. No
single one. But all. We are a
community of moral interests. Think
on these things, pood citizens: arid
shoulder to shoulder, working hand
in hand, elevate the moral standard
of community to such a sacred height
that no man dare touch it to defile.

THE WORLD'S FA IK.
(special cor. the advance)
Chicago; III., Jan. 30th, 1S93
All eyes are now turned toward
Chicago, around which the interest ol
every nation will be centered for the
next few months. It is here that all
people and tribes are soon to meet in
peaceful, laudable emulation in the
fields of ait, science and industry, in
the domain of research, indention and
scholarship, and to learn the univer
sal value ol the discovery to be com
memorated. ' For once all the world
will be akin, and the representatives
of all the nations of the earth will meet
on common ground and exchange
friendly greetings, as they gather
around the world's products.
As one strolls through Jackson
Park, and loiters about the splendid
buildings that have sprung up, magic
like,, and stand in their matchless
beaut', their massive domes piercinsr
the sky in majestic pride, works cf
artj and genius, scarcely surpassed
during the centures that have gone
by, he is impressed with the gran
deur of the conception and the mag
nificence ol the execution. Nowhere
else in the world, have so many .gig
antic and handsome structures Deen
erected within the same area. They
are the admiration and surprise of all
beholders.
It was the privilege of a life-time
to witness the ceremonies attendant
upon the formal dedication of the
Columbian Exposition " buildings,
which took place 111 the Manufactures
Hall on the 21st of last October. It
It was one of the largest assemblies
thewoitldhas ever seen. In it were
the .representatives of the empires
and monarchies whose 'products are
soon tojbe exhibited, the representa
tives of the different departments ol
our own government, the governors
of the several States with their staffs,
th leading- orators, statesmen and
wnters of the present day. It was a
grand occasion. The music was the
1.1: .1 r-
jnuai suuiime mat ever iell uoon
mortal ear. The chorus o'f rive
thousand human voices harmonious
ly blended, the notes filling the vast
auditorium, produced an impression
never to be forgotten. The sea ofi
upturned faces, covering acres of.
'ground, was a sight seldom witnessed, j
The ceremonies were imposing and '
conducted with a splendor, worthy of,!
the great purpose lor which the peo
ple had come together.
No event in history is more worthy
of commemoration. None has had
so great an influence on human af
fairs as the discovery of the Western
hemisphere. And no aniversary was ,
ever celebrated on so grand a scale. I
The buildings are the largest ever J
erected for sufch a purpose. The ex-1
hibits will be the most extensive, and J
will be gathered from every habitable j
portion of the globe. There will be:
gathered here exhibits from the !
"Bosphorus and the Black Sea, the
Vienese voods and the Danubain
plains, from Holland dike to Alpine !
crag, from Belgrade to Calcutta, and :
around China seas and the shores of:
Japan." The isles of the Pacific and !
lar-away capes 01 Atrica will send
their products for the inspection of
the countless millions that will come ;
and go. j
Within a few months the Exposi- j
tion machinery will be in .motion, and ;
it is the purpose of your correspond
ent to set before the readers of the
Advance in a series of weekly let
ters, as accurate a history of the
great World's Fair, as will be pos
sible in the space at- his command.
Each letter will be descriptive of
some particular feature of the World's
products, and the series, if preserved
will make an interesting scrap-book
for one's library. The present letter
is introductory to the regular series,
will begin probably in February next,
in order that the readers may become
familiar with the events that transpire
previous to the openiug.'

Deaf for a Year
: Caused by "
Catarrh in the Head
Catarrh is a Constitutional disease,
and requires a Constitutional Remedy
like Hood's Sarsaparilla to cure it. Read :
" Three years ago, as a result of catarrh, I
entirely lost my hearing and was deaf for more
than a year. 1 tried various things to cure it,
and had several physicians attempt it, but no
improvement was apparent. I could litiii-guiv-h
no nouuil. I was intending putting
myself under the care' of a specialist when
'some one suggested that possibly Hood's Sar
saparilla .would do me some good. I began
taking it without the expectation of any lasting
help. To my urprie and iiront joy I found
w hen I had taken three bottles that my hear
ina wnn rt'tnrnins;. I kept on till I had
taken three more. It is now over a year and I
can hear perfectly well. I am troubled but
very little w ith the catarrh. I consider this a
rt-umrkuble case, and cordially recommend
Hood's Sarsaparilla
to a!I who have catarrh." Hekjiax IIicks, 30
