He en listed in the Junior Reserves of North Carolina at the age of 16, but in 1864 . . e 1 was, at nis own request, iransierreu to the Army of Northern Virginia. When hostilities ceased he went to Virginia and commenced the practice of law, being successful from . the start. In 1881 he was elected to the House of Delegates from Hanover, and has been a member of that body ever since. He is now serving his fourth term as speaker. He was a presidential elector in 1884 and a member of the debt commission. Good Scheme for Good Roads.

YET TO BE r 1 - - RECEIVED. In his annual message to the Mary land Legislature Gov. Brown sug gests a plan for the construction and improvement of roads in the btate, which, to the extent that labor is available from the sources mentioned, could doubtless be made practicable and a help to the public welfare in many ways. It is needless to remark that he does not ask the paternal aid of the general government in this behali. His idea is to utilize the vagrants and tramps. We clip the above from an ex change. It seems that some one be sides the Advance has conceived the idea of utilizing the energy of the tourists. It will be remembered tnat some time ago we advised our town authorities to put all the tramps who :nter the town to work. One of two results would surely follow, either a quantity of work at small expense or a cessation of the visits from these gentry. not think that the necessary revenues could be as well raised by an increase rf tVi tar on beer, tobacco, and cigarettes, he emphatically declared j that he would never lend nis mnuence to increase the tax on beer and to bacco, for the reason that these are the only luxuries of the working men. He would favor, he said, a heavy tax on cigarettes, less for the purpose of raising revenue than from sanitary considerations, but believed that an income tax would meet the require ments of the government, and he would advocate its adoption.

The scheme of the Secretary of the State of Kansas for.making two hours a legal working day is all right as far as work goes, but think of the amount of time it would leave on men's hands which could only be made to pass pleasantly by spending money. It is doubtful whether the whole world could earn enough in tw6 hours' work to pay lor its amuse ments in the other twenty-two. Kil- ing time is expensive business.: Chicago Times. Thirtv-nine Congressman have had warrants served on them for be ing absent from the House without eave. Both bunn and wooaara from North Carolina are included in the list. Newbern Journal. . Mr. Springer, of Illinois, knows something tangible about the income tax. More than twenty years ago, when it was in active operation, he made a test of its constitutionality in the Illinois courts by refusing to pay it on the ground that it was a direct tax. and could only be levied by the State. The case was appealed, and the Supreme Court sustained the con stutionality of the act at Mr. Spring er's expense. LET MR. CRISP PROCEED. We are in receipt of a copy of the oremiura list of the East Carolina Fish and Oyster fair, to beheld at New Bern February 19th to 24 inclusive. The New Bern fair has long been the leading one of the State. This vear there will be unusual interest manifested, by reason of the part tak en by them in the Chicago exhibi tion. What would people think, li it were necessarv to issue a warrant for the arrest of a physician when his services were required at the bedside of a patient? And yet,' recently it became necessary to arrest a number of our Congressmen and, by force of legal procedure, compel them to 00 cudv their seats m Congress, not withstanding the fact that the country is in a state of suspended animation, which calls for active measures on the part of our Congressional physicians. Mr. Crisp is making no mistake when he exerts his authority to com pel the attendance of recalcitrant members.. The spectacle of a party occupying 'the situation absolutely and having unassailable control of both the executive and the legislative branches of the, government this spectacle carries with it the sugges Hon that the party thus favored rests under serious obligations of duty and responsibility. Mr. Crisp, therefore, is quite right in resenting the delin quency of Democrats, and he has be hind him the best sentiment of the country in his effort to hold them to their obligations. The quorum should be reinstated. Not only that, but it should be maintained. Let the issues be made squarely and honestly, and let Dem ocrats be forced to put themselves on record.: If the party means anything it is time the country should know it. If it .means nothing and is trying merely to escape the consequences while enioying the perquisites o: domination, then all the more reason why we should be informed as to the facts and furnished with guidance for the future. Mr. crisp is right. JLet him go ahead with vigor. THE TARIFF BILL. IP AT LAi T. Daniel's Motto, "Excelsior." A quorum showed up on Monday and Prof. Wilson was at last allowed an opportunity of delivering his long delayed speech. WHY BKLAY FCKTUKE? Will some one, on the inside, tell us why it is that no change has been made in our Post Office. We are daily approached by citizens of this and adjoining towns, and asked to explain why it is that a Democratic Congressman allows a Republican post-master to hold office a year af ter he could have been removed Up to the present time we have been able to place the blame upon the broad shoulders of the adminis tration. by saying that it was the policy ol Air. Cleveland not tp re move men until their term's expired, but what excuse can we give now The people want to know, and expect us, as the mouth-piece of the Democ racy of the county, to tell them. We in ourturn, acknowledge our ignor ance, not only on the point in question. but also as the proper, source from which information: is to be sought We therefore make this public ap peal, trusting that the -proper party may see the' article and answer the query. A report is concurrent here that Mr. Josephus Daniels, of Raleigh, at present chief clerk of the Department of the Interior, is in a fair way to be aopointed Public Printer. It is said has pressed bv Secretary Smith who has an exalted opinion of the abilities of Mr. Daniels, but friends of toner gentlemen who aspire to the position talk as if they thought there was nothing in the rumor. They say that the President, while thinking great deaT of Mr. Daniels, has anoth er inena m view, and u he will ac cept he will receive the appointment. It is understood that Mr. Gleve land wants a New York friend for Public Printer. Still, it is stated some quarters that Mr. Daniels has strength, though he has not person ally sought the promotion, but he is very solid with - Secretary Hoke Smith. Post. Democratic Ktp tnsibility. Representative Jerry Simpson says there is much gratuitous talk about the reorganization of the People's party. . . . "The People s party, he said, "is still in process of organization. Con ventions held lrom year to year are but records to disclose how lar the party has advanced in organization for a purpose. It is my belief now that the People s party under various names has been for years forming, and out of that will come the party that will take up the banner the Re publicans let fall. It is my belief al so, that in their next convention they will condence their declaration of principles into a smaller compaes that will consist of planks on lands, trans nortation. taxation, and hnance. 1 cannot believe however, the perma nent success would come out of an at tempt to form a party on the lines of free silver alone. 1 here is no great central truth behind it. There are other greater national abuses than the demonetization of silver that are press ing for solution, and I do not believe that the earnest men and women that make up the sum total of the People's party will consent to trim their prin ciples to fit the prejudices of those who oppose us or submit to the poll cy of those whose principles may be subordinated to success If that policy should prevail, then surely the dav will come for the formation of a new party. The People's party is a growth, the result of twenty years of hard labor in the cause of relorm. Men and women have been abused, vilified, and prosecuted because of their opin ions and labors in this cause. Many have grown gray in the work and not a few have joined the silent ma jority in the world beyond, yet the survivors continue steadily in the on ward march." Ex.

Any child would an swer, without hesitation, to make "laws and watch over the interests of their constituents. This answered, like raanjr other stereotyped phrases, comes as; naturally to the lips as a greeting to the friend we meet upon the street, and yet all our exchanges for Sunday last have articles com menting upon the fact that, although these men have been elected for a specific object, it is impossible to get enough of them to constitute a quo rum, in the halls of Congress. What is the matter ? If our Con gressman are so averse to doing their duty, why do they except the charge ? If their business obligations at home are such as to require their personal attention, then in the name of justice let them stay at home and allow some man go to Washington that will be content with the liberal salary The week has gone by in Congress without a' single step toward the con sideration of the tariff to any other public business. The minority has persistently abstained from voting and the majority has not been able to command a quorum. Discreditable as this obstruction is to both sides, the real responsibility is upon the Democrats, who have been intrusted with the duty of legislation and can not command the organization or leadership necessary to accomplish their task. That the tariff bill will be passed does not admit of doubt but it ought to be passed promptly. Every day's delay prolongs the busi ness depression and exhausts .the patience of the country. Gal iik for the Absentees. The Democratic party in the House was again rendered impotent" and ridiculous yesterday by the ab sence or refusal to vote of several faithless Representatives elected as Democrats. If neither public obliga tions nor party fealty will induce these recreants to perform their duty the people of their districts ought to adopt some means to bring them to a realizing sense of their conduct. Every Democratic Congressman who is absent from his post to-morrow without a good reason is as much a deserttr as a soldier who skulks away on the eve of battle. N. Y. World, 7th.

With that memory came now the contrast be tween her life and his. It mig'ht or might not be true that he had Veen cruelly wronged by her father; out of filial love and duty, Grace tried to check that suspicion, but it haunted and tortured her eveiy hour of theday. She, it might be, -was' living on the fruit of those studies to which he had sacrificed his health and strength. Her life was one of luxury and ease; he was ill and poor. And she loved him, and once he had loved her. - The pearls about her neck seemed to strangle her, the warm scented air to stifle her. When she was home again and in her own room, she took off her handsome and expensive dress with a sense of relief, and sat long in the dark thinking sadly of all that had hap pened since Mr. Ryan broke the little teacup in the shabby parlor of Simla House. Mast it be for her, as for many an other woman, to fret and struggle helplessly and hopelessly against the tide? There was the refuge of prayer. The next day she bethought herself of one thing at least that she could do, since .he was poor and she was rich. Her dresses cost more singly than she had paid for a dozen at Marston; tut her old studies in economy had taught her to save out of the generous allow ance handed over to her by the Major. With trembling hands she placed twe ten-pound notes in an envelope and addressed it to Mr. Henderson, care ol Messrs. Parkham, who would surely forward it to his lodgings. Then she went out and posted the missive in the red pillar box which stood at the cor der of the square. CHAPTER IIX LIQUIDATION. Time passed on, and the Unbreaka ble China Company's works were still going. X uere was no apparent altera tion in the life of the inmate of No. 21 ernon Square. The Ions' days brought Grace no further news ol Lucas Henderson; neither did they I ring her greater happiness in her no-w and grander home, nor friends so dear as those left behind in Marston. She had well nigh given up the hopj of seeing Lucas again, or even of hearing anything about him, when one day in the spring, when she was alone in the small morning-room, where the old chairs from the Simla House parlor were safe from the eyes of fashionable callers, a servant en tered aud announced his name. Grace said some conventional words of welcome she knew not what He answered with a partial explanation of his presence. was in London," he said. thought I might venture to call upon you. 1 Hoped you perhaps would still remember me. Remember him! had she not good reason to remember. "It is very kind of you to come, was all she could say. He might have misunderstood the suddenly cold and reserved tone, but happily his insight was too keen, and he guessed, knowing what he did of her and of the Major, something of tha thought that had come into her mind. Half an hour later her hands were clasped in his, and he was telling her how the love, plighted by one look from earnest eyes at Marston, had en dured and ripened. When Major Kennedy came home that evening, he took no heed oi Grace's happy shining eyes and glowing cheeks. He spoke hardly a word until din ner was over, and he had been sitting for an hour in his arm-chair in the drawing-room, making a pretence of reading an evening paper. It va- the Major who spoke first He had news for Grace, and while she was ponder ing how best to plead her cause his news came upon her like a thunder bolt "You had better put up the things in this house you most need," he said sud denly. Ryan has cheated us and bolted) the China is a hopeless failure, and will never be anything else; the com pany must be wound up, and all w have, unless we can save beggarly necessities out of a wreck, must go tc pay what little they will of our debts." "Failed! sold up! Father, it cannot be true! Mr. Byan gone! Why didn't you tell me before? How you must hare suffered" "It is not for myself, Grace, I care,"i he said, with a groan and he was very much in earnest in the protestations but you. What is to become of you? "You will see me happy, father," answered Grace softly "far happier than I could have been as Mr. Ducie's wife. Father, a wonderful thing has happened. Mr, Henderson has been here, and he he has asked me to marry him." "Aye," he said bitterly; "he thinks yon are a rich man s heiress, Orace; that we have experimented with his brains, and he has a right to the result He will not be in a hurry to marry a bankrupt's daughter. Lucas Hender son, of all men, will be glad to pay back the treatment he got from us. " But Grace could trust her lover. . She did not doubt what his reply would be when, in her father's presence next day, 6he told bim what had happened, and offered him his liberty. Neither she nor Major Kennedy, however, had guessed the real truth. "J knew aH.'' Lucas said quietly. "1 heard that the company was insolvent or I do not know 'whether I should have dared to ask you to be my wife; and 1 took advantage of your ignor ance to test you, Grace. You will have to forgive- me that one shadow of doubt I had no right to think you would come to me, rich or poor." The invention of unbreakable china remains for some genius of the future to perfect Mr. and Mrs. Henderson are quite happily indifferent to the fact, and Major Kennedy Is at pres ent deeply interested in cevising marvelous new mechanical toy for hia eldest grandson.

"Blind Tom" is well known all over the country. At the time of the emancipation of the slaves he was owned by John G. Bethune, of Virginia. The family, aware of the negroe's genius, decided to retain him, - notwithstanding the fifteenth amendment. The Superior Court of Virginia, on account of "Biind Tom's" infirmity, decided that he was to re main the property of the Bethunes forever. This decision caused wide spread gossip and not a Jitlle harsh criticism. Colonel Danitl P.

TowiACH Troubles Liver Complaint, Constipation, and Biliousness ARE SPEEDILY CURED By the use of AVER'S Cathartic Pills A friend speaks through the Booth bay (Me.) Register, of the beneficial results he has received from a regular use of AYER'S Pills. He says: "I was feeling sick and tired and my stomach seemed all out of order. I. tried a number of remedies, but none seemed to give me any relief until I was induced to try the old reliable AYER'S Pills. I have taken only one box, but I feel like a new man. I think they are the most pleasant and easy to take of any thing I ever used, being so finely sugar-coated that even a child will take them. I urge upon all who. are in need of a laxative to try AYER'S Pills. They will do good." ' "For four years, I was afflicted with liver complaint. The best physi cians in the country being unable to relieve me, I was advised to try AYER'S Pills. I did so, and believe my liver is now in a perfectly healthy condition." M.
