WILMINGTON, N. C: i TnuESDAT Moening, Jan. 23, 1879. RETBENCUnENT AND rRBFOan. We are i nol oflSce-seekers. We have no axe to grind, but we are tax-payers. What we have said concerning ibe redaction of salaries has been prompted solely r by a de sire to help relieve a people who are sorely burdened with taxation, and by a conviction of. fairness al&d us tice. Months ago we wrote upon the subject, and subsequent reflection but confirms us in the position we then took.. The salaries of our offi cials are too high, with the excep tion of the Judiciary. - We do not think their pay adequate. As to the pay of the officers, if the Legislature would obtain from all of the States a list of the salaries al lowed, it would be astonished to find that North Carolina, in her great po verty, pays much higher salaries than other States two or three times richer and with but little public debt. , High; salaries are not in consonance with the genius of our people, or the principles of our institutions. Our great forefathers never attempted to imitate the extravagance or splendor of foreign countries, and never pro posed that our public servants should go into office to get rich, or to make a great display. It ' is only 'since the war, when the era ol corruption . and speculation and peculation dawned upon""our land, that high salaries were deemed the thing, when public officers lived like nabobs and princes,' and .when large fortunes were strangely - made that our people be gau torcopy norl and; improper cus tdms, and became impregnated with some of the political miasma thai lowers the standard of morals and poisons the, public, fountains. , We are gradually getting back to 'the good and pure old times when the people were frugal and kindly, when honor and justice prevailed among men, and when the servants of the people were . attentive to busi ness, scrupulous in theirs deaW ings, and lived simple tand vir tuous lives. ; We are! glad that such is the case. It is a gbod bmea. that the people of the Statel, if norof the whole country, are awaking fully to a5 proper tmderstanding of their condition, and are demanding better and wiser laws jtnd stricter1 econbmvl l he i)mocrats of North Carolina wmj)oiwvir. w reiorm abuses and retrench Expenses.

Prior to the war we'bejieve.'Korth Carolina bad the , best;, oonBtitution, the hiest laws, -and the . beat, govern meiit of any State in tfie tfnion. The nien, I who neld omoe; c were, pure capibte: andoestit (fees; vreT; low salaries tfere moderate. Now taxs are high and salaries are exces- sivei When the pleewW have easily given W plUluniiotfirils5 large salaries it was deemed improper and; unsafe to dorso.' 'It was dimply contrary to the best convietiohs - and wishes of Hhe1 tax-payers." 'In thVse days the total salaries paid the officials of the ( capitol ..amounted . to - not mpdh more han $6,000. Now they aggregate oyer. $25,000. Are th peo-. pie jany.' better served now than then? Ifi necessary we could enter each Pe partment and show that the .men of thai time were every way equal' to those of the present. Why then this largo increase? It is one of the leg acies of carpet-bag rule. They in- troiuced the custom of paying large 1 salaries. The lMeigh5tti bas shojvb that the taxes are relatively higher now, than they were under Radical - rule,' and that the $90,000 saved by abol ishing annual sessions of the Legila Leg&la- j ture bas disappeared, leaving taxa tion as high as ever. In South Car olina the. Democrats have reduced thetaxe'i'earlyfifty percent..- . wouruy of hote. Senator LamajQaceibaly a man of very superior abilities. , The conn- I 1, J r . . " t try has done justice to his gifts. - Bat he is more than a man of fine culture and superior mental parts. He-is singularly scrupulous, and differs so much in. his old-fashioned notions of mine and thine, from those that pre vail, as to make him appear something odd, if not really eccentric. A ban" dred and fifty years, ago- Henry Brooke, a man of genius and an Irish man, wrote a work that still lives and richly deserves, a plaoe in every librjary. It" is called 'e Tool1 of Quility." Brooke was a very; de voted, spiritual Christian. He makes his bero, who was the son of a noble man, -conduct himself under all temptations and difficulties and dan- gerjj just as the' Bible teaches. ' The read It was the world deemed him a fool. Hence the title of tbo work. If Mr.; Lamar continues to bear himself as he has done, he will be regarded as a splendid idiot a crack-brained man of talents, and all because his ways are; not as many other politician's ways. When the reader has run over the following he will then appreciate the astounding singularity of Mr. Lamar's conduct. We copy from a recent spe cial in the Baltimore Gazette : canaot save any of my salary.' said Senator Lamar to-day toujour. corresponN dent. 'It is impossible.. J seter paid a ceai beyond livery hire and a" few little kindred items of election expenses in my lifejand I have beenia politics a long time. I could save $1,000 : a year if I would, do certain things, but I don't think my con Science would be satisfied if I did. For instance, I pay absnt $300 a year for news papers; i ukbio reauem ernave passes over railroads; I couldttravel, all over, the United States free, but I pay my fare. It costs me $57 for each member of my fam ily every time I come and go between here and home. , I have telegraph passes, but I never use them. I do not think it would be right I can send-any thing I please over the ! express lines, yet I pay my express bills. -j l. spend my salary, and seyer hate anyi money. Some -Senators use all these privileges of dfad headiog,' and they say.it is right. I think otherwise."

A correspondent- of : tbeKaleigh New has i . . . written 'an- appreciative aQ admirable artiole on the late I Col J David M.. Carter. We would be glad to reproduce it, if space allowed. It is as just as discrimipative, and was written -evidently by one who had a ! &een insisnt into nis mieHeotuai qualities as '' well' as v ah intimate knojwledge of the man. We copy a few-disjointed passages; " Col, Carter. was an extraor Jioary man in etery way; in most respects he was head and shoulders above any man - in North Carolina.- Io reach and breadth of mind he was without a peer.. : It was an impos sibUlty for him to discuss any subject with out getting at the bottom of it . Pia views upon every subject were broadv r comprehensive conservative. He was statesman, not a partisan. . "His mental and moral inteffrity were complete. Popular passion1 add clamor passed him by without disturbing one single element of his mental, . moral or . physical machinery. - "He was a ripe scholar, a thinker of rareldeliberation and coolness, and his ma tured opinions were expressed with matcb less Intrepidity. . " " He could analyze a subject and extract its kernel with a power and precision equal to the most perfect surgical operalioa. His fund of . humor was inexhaustible. His kindness of heart was most admirable." A, trs. Cobb, who has been sent to the penitentiary ofCgpnecticut for life for the murder of her husband, is a remarkable woman if she be guilty. She is a sentimental mur deress, and can write no mean verse. Anj unfortunate woman, who was said to have been murdered by Mrs. Cobb and Bishop, her paramour, was a Good Templar. That Order held Bome memorial services, when the Cobb appeared and read some very touching lines to her memory. They are j very canons under the circum stances.

We wrangledover a good many ante-mortem outbursts,1 butt I finally got him to cut bis obituary down to this, which ,be copied into his memorandum book, purposing to get it by heart: j 'N i I die that France may live. j I said that this remark seemed tb lack relevanoy; but he said relevancy was a matter of no consequence in last words what vou wanted was thrill. : I 'rTlhen wrote the following note and carried it to M. FonrtbVs friend: SiEf M. Gambeita "accepts M. FoartbVs challenge, and authorizes me to propose Flessis Piquet i as the place of meeting; to morrow morning at daybreak as the time; and axes as the weapons. I am, Bir with great respect, Mask Twain. ' M. Four tou's friend read this note, and shuddered. Then he tnrned to me, and said, with a suggestion of severity in his tone: "Have you considered, sir, what would be the inevitable result of such a meeting as this?" "Well, for .instance, what would it be?" "Bloodshed !" "That's about the size of it," I said. "Now, if it is a fair question, what was your side proposing to shed ? " -1 I had him there; he saw j he had made a blunder, so ho hastened to explain it away. He said he had spoken jestingly. Then he , added that he and his principle would en joy: axes, and indeed prefer them, but Buch weapons were barred by the French code, and so I must change my proposal. j After proposing- "Galling guns, rifles, navy pistols and brlokbats, Mr. Twain left the choice of weapons to the other second, who fished out of his vest pooKet a couple of little thibgs which I carried to the light and discovered to be pistols. They were single-barreled and silver- mounted, and very amty-and pretty, I waff not ablei to speak for emotion. I silently hung one of them on my watch chain and returned the other. My companion in crime now unrolled a postage stamp containing several cartridges, and gave me one of them. I asked if he meant to Bignify by this that our men were to be allowed but one shot apiece. , He replied that the French code permitted no more. I then begged him to go on and sug gest a distance, for my , mind . was growing , weak and confused under the strain , put upon it. He sug gested sixty-five yards. ". I n earfy lost my patience. I said: "Sixty-five yards with these instru ments? Pop-guns would be deadlier at fifty.' Consider, my friend, you and I are bandied together to destroy life, and not to make it eternal." But with all my persuasions, all my arguments, I was only able to get him to reduce the distance to thirty five yards; and even this concession he made with reluctance, and with a sigh said: ; - j "I wash my hands of this slaugh ter; on your head be it.-- i f 1 , There was nothing for me but tO go home to my own ; lion-heart, and tell my humiliating story. .When I entered M.
