Taney. The Nctcs and Observer earnestly ad vises tho farmers to do two things that are wise to plaut corn and to plant small grain. When it talks about planting trees it is evidently out of the way. The planters hereabouts want ewer trees and more cleared land. Mrs. Brewster, wife of the Attorney General, called the other day on Mrs. Dorsey, wife of the Star-route defend ant. The latter was not at homo, and cards" were left. The matter has ex cited much comment, many thinking it to have been the result of a mistake The carriage of the Attorney-Genera is adorned with true republican sim plicity, with a gorgeous coat-of-arms. and sports two footmen adorned eockaded hatsjand in full livery. in . . i raised There has been some question as to the birthplace of '01d Hickory. Ben Butler recently asserted, that he was an Irish lad, born in tho old country- To rebut that 5 the Boston I'ost prints a letter written by Jackson's own hand, dated January 17, 1837in which he said : I with pleasure comply with your request and incloso you my auto graph, and inform you that I was born -in Waxsaw, South Carolina, on the 15th ot March, 1867."

He followed the i Iangtry to St. Louis and was there in terviewed by a reporter of the Globe Democrat. The next day Fred en countered the reporter, whose name is iJu'nningham, at the Southern Hotel -and branded him as an ''infamous liar." Cunningham pocketed the insult sevor al times.

Oockery' Preparations. -We were pleased to receive a visit this morning from Mr. W. J. Cornwall formerly of this city but now of Wades- boro. Mr. Cornwall tells us that Col Dockery seems to be making strenuous efforts to get togcttier some kind of testimony to bolster him up in his claims to Judge Bennett's scat. There was a smeller from Washington City by the name of Haywood pin Wades boro last week nosing around 'among the defunct ballot boxes. It was in evidence that he did not find ranch of a nature (o forward the snecess of the conspirators. Mr. Wiiliani Dockery was also on hand at one time last week and the night before he left he submit ted a protest to Judge Bennett 6n , be half of, his father. He afterwards, it is said, endeavored to regain possession of the document but Bennett would not surrender it. ? ! WILMINGTON. N. C SATURDAY; JANUARY 20. 1883. NO. 18 The State Guard. . The address of Adjutant-General Jones, of the North Carolina State Guard, at the Opera House-last night, ! was listened to by quitea rood audi ence notwithstanding the disagreeable I weather. There were seTeral ladies present, and the address, which, con sumed about two hours in its delivery, was received with marked -attention. After paying ar deserved tribute to the ladies of North Carolina, Gen . J ones spoke of the heroes of the Revolution and then of the services la the past of the Wilmington Light Infantry, a corps whoso history was the record of glori ous deeds, and who deserved the foster ing care of our citizens. ' ine otate truard as it now exists, is 1,- i !.;-.-,r ,.,uu, 1 wuipuacii vii tiiii tuuipaurea ui n uiica ; and five of colored men, the whole con- sisting of 1,400 men. To keep' this force in existence the State docs not pay one single penny, every expense being-a tax directly upon the soldier! The speak er in alluding to this jmatter, drew a comparison between our own and wo me of the. other States, to our disadvantage so far as any adequate regard for the strength and efficiency of our military j organizations is concerned. While i this State pays nothing-towards1 the support of her military organizations, i Delaware supports .350 men in j her ;StategGuard and spends on them $1,200 annually ; Minnesota supports 844 men and spends $5.000j Maryland supports 2.000 men and spends $12,000; South Carolina supports 5,179 men and spends $16,000; Maine supports 985 men and :spend8$15,936; Colorado supports 1.C50 men and spends $16,000; Rhode Inland supports 923 men and spends $23,000; NewHampshire supports 1,390 men and spends $25,000; Wisconsin supports 2, 400 men and spends $31,250; New Jer sey supports 3,220 men' and spends $03,842; Ohio supports 5,875 men and spends $73,800; Connecticut supports 2,37 men and s ponds $95,000; Masaa- chusetts suprorU 4,470 man and spends $144,000; Pennsylvania supports 7,330 men and spends $220,000; New York supports 11,603 men and spends $300,000 Gen. Jones claimed, and very proper lj, too, that a well organized militia was an indispensable necessity to the State, and that the State Guard should receive such assistance as would place it on a footing equal with mili tary organizations of other States, or, at least to relieve it of a portion ofHhe ex pense to which it. ia now subjected. The entire - address . was a plain, straight-forward statement of the con dition of tho present status of the State Guard and the duty of our legislature to enact some law by which it could be placed in a more flourishing; and cm cient condition ; assuming a small por tion of the necessary expense incurred In maintaining the organization the State would aecomplish this and none be perceptibly poorer, while it stimu lates miliary ardor and spirit and gfves us a Staft military organization - of which our CommonwealUjs mignt be croud. Railroaders in Council.

"Cousin Sally Oillanl." Mr Editor: j j j I have always understood, arid I im-! aginc it has been the belief generallyjof ; the DeoDle of our State, that the author of that humorous story, ''Cousin Sally w i Dillard," was Hamilton C. Jones, Esq. , of Salisbury. He at one time edited a paper in that town and was a journalist of merit as well as a prominent mem- berjof the bar, and "a fellow of. infinite jest and most excellent fancy." . Many years ago, 1 wll not say . how many, for fear the younsters might eall me a patriarch, a venerable gentle man told me the following incident, which I think settles the question as to the authorship of the piece: Oopne occasion, that worthy son of the "Old North State," Ham. Jones, as ho was familiarly called, returning from a visit North, stopped for the night in Baltimore. Inclination led him to visit the theatre. The piece en acted was a deeply impressive tragedy, which left the audience in & sad and sorrowful mood. ' They; sat in silence awaiting the preparations for the farce for which few had any relish and on which many were about to turn their backs when a whisper passed around The author of 'Cousin Sally Dillard1 is in the honse.v Those who had risen to leave - the theatre returned to their seats eyes brightened, and a call loud and corn man ding was heard from every quarter for "Cousin Sally Dillard." The author was hurried by his friends nolens foZcs -before the curtain,-and such a scene as tollowed" is seldom witnessed on the boards)f any theatre. He was in "story-telling" mood, and just in the right mood to discourse of "Cousin Sally." nd the way he did tell that simple,- but celebrated story jof his own making was a caution to all play-going people. Suffice it to say they laughed, cried, roared, beat the benches, encored and finally broke up in a row. lne larce being suspended by the story was not called for, the deep laid, affecting . scenes of the tragedy forgotten, but while memory lasts the looks, gestnres and dry humor of "Ham Jones" in the sinmle recital of that vcrv simple story, will remain; 'fresh and green, in the sainds of all who heard him. - ' I ..' a r ;-ff'f -,1 think therefore you are clearly right m your statement in regard to the au thorship of that story. i Sknex.
