ft Morning frcar. By WlLLIlTO H. BERNARD. WILMINGTON, N. C: Wednesday JMoening, April 1877 ALMOST. The news Monday from Louisiana was very hopeful. The beginning of the end has come at last. We may expect in a few days at farthest to hear the glad tidings of great joy that Louisiana, like South Carolina, is once more a free Commonwealth, and its people citizens of the United States. The controversy has clearly reached that point when it is only a question of a few hours or a few days when the troops will be re moved and Gov. Nicholls will be complete and recognized master of the situation. Warmouth and his followers will join the Nicholls Legis lature. The latter has passed a reso lution giving effect to the accepted programme of settlement that is to say, that the Legislature shall be organized upon the prima facie right to seats, without considering the action of Wells, Anderson and their faction. The Nicholls Legislature will also pass resolutions expressing confidence in the President, guaranteeing the acceptance of the 13th, 14th . and 15th Amendments to the Constitu tion of the United States; and assur ing the fullest protection to the col ored people of Louisiana in the un restrained enjoyment of all their rights and privileges of person and nronertv. It will also declare in i r j - favor of equal eduqational advan tages for all for white and colored nlike will proclaim a general am nesty for all past political offences so that peace, order, and good will may prevail throughout the State, and will urge a re-union and hearty co operation of all classes in working for the redemption of the State, and bringing back that prosperity and glory which once distinguished that rich and peculiarly favored common wealth. Let the resolutions be adopted, and then let them be carried out in good faith, 3nd a bright future awaits Louisiana. Such resolutions are ap propriate in themselves, will tend to give confidence to the good inten tions of the white people, will silence to a great extent the distrust of good men in the North, and take the, clap per from the alarm bell of the fac tionists and recalcitrants. They will strengthen the cause of good, just, equal government, and uphold and sustain the President in his wise, hu mane, and constitutional course. TALL FIBBING. Our reatleTs will remember that the following resolution appeared in our telegraphic columns last week. It was adopted by the Now England Methodist Conference the same body that contained pious frauds who wanted to hang Hampton and is too precious a specimen of Yankee blar ney ndjjate to be forgotten soon. We copy again, that your memories may be refreshed. It reads: "We have been informed that Wm. H. Scott, an aged and highly respected mem ber of the South Carolina Conference, has been shot io death without provocation. while peacefully leaving bis church on the close of an evening service, c. It goes on to say that due inquiry into the facts must be made, and steps taken to bring the guilty par ties to justice. When we read it we thought it was a canard a cruel falsehood a covert slander intended to contribute fufet to the fires of fanaticism that never die out in New England, but rage on with more or less violence from year to year, as they are fed by the Phil lips', Havens', and men of that cloth The Charleston News and Courier took prompt steps to find out how much truth there was in the resolu tion of the New England pietists, and with this result. It says : "A prompt reply comes from our vigi lant correspondent at Marion, who tele graphs us that Scott, who was located at Marion last year, is alive and well, perform ing, without molestation, his pastoral duties in the neighboring county of Marlboro'. This information is authentic, and proves the report of the killing of Scott to be, as we expected, an impudent fabrication. "The New England Conference will be careful not to notice this contradiction, and 'the stalwart Republican feeling' of the Mallalieus in that body can evolve slan ders and falsehoods, about South Carolina, so liberally that the whole Southern press, if it did nothing else, would be kept busy in detecting and exposing them." Ealstaff long ago said, "Lord, lord, how this world is given to lying." But the people of his time were not adepts in the art like the snivelling slanderers of our own day. Of all dangerous men the reverend liars are to be most feared. They have an in fluence over men that the worldling cannot command, and in proportion as they violate the commandment of Jehovah novto-lie, and not to bear false testimony, do they inflict a great wound upon society, and work evil where good was expected. i ountry At last, tne people oi uie country i a n THE MORtflON BLIGHT are beginning to realize something of ; in his course of laying bare the fester the iniquities and barbarism of Mor- ! ing sores of Pennsylvania dema monism, and of the great blot it is gogues, and his paper will only pros upon our civilization, lhe butchery j of the unsuspecting and hapless vic tims at Mountain Meadows by Lee and his confederates in crime, and the belief of Brigham Young's com plicity in the awful slaughter, have excited protound disgust and horror in the popular mind, and a demand has been sent forth fromeverv section that the other criminals should be brought to trial, and, if convicted, made to meet the utmost penalties of the law. The Gentiles at Salt Lake City have held a public meeting to con sider the question of crushing out Mormonism in Utah Territory. They propose to support an amendment to the act by which Utah Territory was organized, and have passed resolu tions to that effect. It is thought that the adoption of the proposed amendment which declares that any one practicing either polygamy or bigamy shall be forever disfranchised and deprived of any shire in the management of affairs, and shall be regarded as criminals and outcasts from society, will have a very salu tary and desirable effect, and will give the death blow to Mor monism. The meeting was en thusiastic, united and earnest, and shows that a deep feeling of condem nation and revolt against the mon strosities of the Mormon curse fills the Gentile heart of the territory. The New York Herald, commenting upon the meeting, remarks: "The fact that the attack has been made in the very stronghold of Brigham Young gives additional significance to the move mcnt and proves the sincerity of those ma king it. The anti-Mormon residents of Utah know that institution in all its revolt ing aspects. They measure its influence for evil by the unerring standard of expe rience. They recognize in it only a rule of treacnery, Dlood and lust, unworthy of even the least civilized races, much less of men who claim a standing among the American people. We cannot, therefore, regard this action of the meeting at Salt Lake City as other than just and legitimate in its aims and objects. While the world is thrilled with horror at the barbarism ot the Turks. and an outcry is raised for their expulsion from the assemblage of civilized men. we cannot join our voices in the demand so long as other nations can point to Utah and me Mormons as they do to Bulgaria and the basbi-bazouks who revel in villa cre3 filled with the slaughtered. Away, tWua, with this bestial, blasphemous and blood stained congregation, which insults God in the midst of His grandest works and the noblest and grandest feelings of man under the flag of our Republic. Let Mormonism be extirpated from the land by the Samson of the law, even if its adherents should be buried beneath the ruins or its temples." BENEFITS OF WAR. Wo do not mean that war is to be desired by writing the above. We simply mean that the people of this country will be signally benefited by an European! war in the heavy advance in the products of the United States. Already wheat and corn have ad vanced when war is only imminent. After it is definitely announced that war has been declared, then a further rise in the markets will be witnessed at once. Everything eaten will ad vance, and manufactured goods will have an upward tendency also. The rise in wheat is quite 60 cents, and corn has gone up some 10 cents a bushel. The New York Journal of Commerce, good authority, in view of the war, says: "The prevalent belief that the spring would see the opening of a great war in the East has certainly done its part in this im provement of prices. From these facts we may conclude that such a war would be materially a benefit to trade and commerce in the United States. It would create a large European demand for American grain and flour and provisions of all kinds, and the effect of this would be to stimulate manufactures and business in nearly every branch of industry. Ocean freights would partake of the improvement, and if Eng land were dragged by circumstances into the vortex of the war, American commerce, having the oreference for the carrying trade, would get a start which it has not enjoyed for nearly twenty years. Ameri cans with these thoughts in their minds, to say nothing of the concern which they feel in the promotion of Christianity and civi lization in Turkey, will eagerly watch every day's development of the Eastern question." In some sections ministers are paid P 1 " i --t-r ior preacning tunerais. we once heard one remark that the custom was demoralizing, for he found himself thinking of the fee he would get when a certain sick person had died We hope none will be selfish and sordid enough to desire the horrors of war to bo visited upon others be cause they will be benefited them selves by good prices for their products. We regret to see that a cowardly as sault was made upon Col. Alex. Mc Clure, the very able and astute editor of the Philadelphia Times, by a fat government contractor, named Nat McKay, assisted by two other bull dozers. Col. McClure has been a thorn in the side of corruptionists ever since he issued the first number of his excellent paper in January, 1876. He has exposed the rascalities and thievings of Pennsylvania poli ticians as they were never exposed before, and has done a noble work for honesty and reform. We wish he bad used his muscle freely and had given his main assailant a good drubbing. He will not be deterred aruDtnng per the more by such attacks. The New York Journal of Com merce suggests a cure for the dangers of hotel life. Let the people refuse to go up high, for they are simply timber boxes. Our contemporary says: "If persons who journey about the coun try and live at the great hotels would with one accord firmly decline to be hoisted to such giddy heights, where they are exposed to all the accumulated dangers of fires that may break out m the many stories below them dnd are hopelessly cut off from res cue by the longest of ladders, the hotel proprietors would very quickly find it ex pedient to make all the elevators and stair ways nre proof, keep a head of water and hose on every floor, and double their force of watchmen and firemen. Thirty days' experience of unoccupied and unprofitable rooms in the upper floors would bring the most thoughtless and indifferent hotel own ers and landlords in New York to a clear perception of what they owe their custom ers. We advise the public to try this reifiedy, and not wait for Legislatures or insurance companies to do anything." We have received an excellent likeness of Gov. Vance from J. S. Tomlinson, Esq., editor of the Pied mont Jress, published at Hickory. It is a capital lithograph,14 by 18 inches.

Commissioner Polk's Address. We copy the important portion of Col. L. L. Polk's addro8Slo the farm ers of North Carolina. Our readers have had already laid before them the names of the members composing the Board of Agriculture: L. L. Polk, of Anson, commissioner. Office of the Department in the Briggs Building, on Fayetteville street, lialeigh. This Department has now entered upon the great work for which it was created the improvement and ad vancement of the agricultural and all kiudred industries of the State, and we bespeak the indulgent aid of all our fellow citizens in the arduous task imposed upon us. A competent chemist has been elected, who will, in a few days, open a Laboratory at Chapel Hill for the analysis of commercial fertilizers, soils, etc., performing such other du ties and experiments as the Board m&v direot. A summary of the law In relation to the sale of fertilizers and the pro pagation and protection of fish, and also a circular explanatory of the plan by which the General Land and Mining Kegistry, connected with the Department, is proposed to be ope rated, will be published as soon as practicable for the public informa tion, and we invoke, in support of these important measures, an earnest co-operation in their enforcement and obedience. The tax imposed upon the sale of commercial fertilizers has a two-fold object in view; the one to suppress, as far as practicable, the imposition of dishonest articles upon our people; and the other to aid in raising reve nue for the support of the Depart meot, without addition to the general tax bills. Se far, both objects seem in a fair way of realization. The fund arising from this source will certainly be ample to establish and maintain the Department on a useful and most effective footing, and it is with great regret that we perceive attempts to render the peo ple dissatisfied with the tax. The requirements of the law are plain, and tbeir faithful enforcement wil afford, as was designed by their en actment, protection alike to the pur chaser and manufacturer of honest fertilizers. Each bag, parcel or package, must bave stamped upon it a true cbemica analysis of its contents, and surely no manufacturer would object to avail ing himself of this method of assur ing the farmer of the true character and value of his goods, especially as it would serve the double purpose of commending it to the buyer, and force competitors in spurious goods to abandon the market. But, as was to be expected, quite a number o mauuiamurers are opposing it vio lently. A grand combination is openly lorming, chiefly in the city of bJalti more, to test its validity in the United btates Uourts, and to aid their scheme, by producing as much dis content as possible at home, thev are advancing ineir prices at tne rate o one dollar per ton, to enable them they say, to pay the $500 privilege tax. When it is remembered that the enormous profits realized by manufac turers justify them in paying to their dealers and agents the handsome gum of from five to ten dollars per ton, on saies, and this advance of one dollar would, to many of them, yield $5,000, instead of $500, it can be easily seen that it is a mereipretense to bleed more heavily our confiding people. North Carolina has long been the richest harvest for these dealers in fertilizers honest and dishonest because we have heretofore been rjrac tically unprotected by law, and have bought their productions bhndlv. There is but one wav to deal with those who reap all the benefits of our credulity, and resist in this wav al our efforts at self-protection, and that is not to trade with them. Our pur- cnases in lertiiizers amount, by esti mation, to three millions of dollars annually, about two-thirds of which go to the city of Baltimore. There are some manufacturers, there and elsewhere, who have paid the tax cheerfully, and have refused to aid combinations in resisting our laws. it you win ouy oi mum trouble will cease. Their names and addresses will be published for your information as soon as the list is com pleted. Farmers of North Carolina, we ask you to sustain this Department. It i is the 6rst attempt in the history of the State to give your interests that attention their importance demands, and, with evidences ot appreciation on your part, the Board will be great ly encouraged in the responsible du ties before them, and will devote whatever of ability and energy tuey oossess to vour service and to the promotion of the material interests of our State.
