0U STATE TICKET.
We present this morning the full
-nate ticket nominated by the Demo
cratic Convention Thursday. VYhile
we do not believe, taking it as a
whole, that it is the strongest ticket
that could have been selected, it will
receive the earnest and hearty sup
port of the Stab, as we trust it will
receive the. ejtrnest and hearty sup
port of eveiy true Democrat in tbo
Slate.
The time is now past for consider
ing questions of personal preference.
Our norniaaiioaa have been made,
and as faithful Democrats we must
give them our vigorous and energetic
support.
The issue will soon be joined and
every Democrat in North Carolina
will have to determine whether he
prefers a triumph of Radicalism or a
iriQmp!) of Democracy. Can we
doubt what that determination will
ti when the issue is thus presented?
Lei every Democrat do his duty
and our State ticket will be elected
by a large majority.
Suppose we now call it Bayard and
Hendricks and commence placing
our bets?

Weldon News: A fearful hail
storm passed over Jackson and vicinity on
Tuesday of last week, says the HeporUr,
doing much damage to crops and gardens.
It lasted nearly half an hour. Some of the
stones were as large as marbles. At

ter J. Smith, of this county, will be or
dained to the ministry at Trinity Episcopal
Church, in Scotland Neck. Mr. Smith is a

men broke out of Halifax jail last week.
They succeeded in reopening the hole
which was cut by Taylor, a month or two

made a file out of a piece of steel and when
the jailor visited the building they were
missing.
Reidsville limes: There was
a severe storm at Oak Ridge in Guilford
county last Saturday. It was about half
mile wide and swept everything before it.
600 trees were estimated to be blown up in
one body of woods. In a single orchard
25 trees were blown up and great damage
done to nearly all tbo others. Haw
river will soon be lined with cotton facto
ries. We hear that DavidBon & Gaot, at
Morton's 8tore, in Alamance, are pushing
ahead on, their factory, and that Geo. Ker
nodle near there has been offered $4,000
for bis mill site, and Swepson baa refused
$15,000 for an old mill site below Ker-
nodle's. A well known toper with
something less than a gallon - of blue
ruin on on went home Saturday -night
and began beating; and cubing his
wife and children, when some fellow in
disguise called him out to the bashes to see
bun a little bit on business, and be well
nigh wore him out, giving him an unmerci
ful flogging, and while it may be unlawful,
still the verdict with the community is, it
served him right. It won't do for a man
to hit his wife in these days.

The Savannah (Ga.) New contains an ac
count of the destruction by fire of the tur
pentine distillery of Meters. Wilder & Co.,
at Brunswick, Ga., on the 14th inst. Mr.
Wilder is also a member of the firm of
Wilder & Morton, distillers, of this city.
He removed to Brunswick a few months
ago, for the purpose of establishing a
branch of the business there. The Neva
account says:
"Yesterday tbe citizens of the northern
portion of the city were thrown into panic,
almost, by the conflagration ot Wilder &
Co. 's turpentine works- It seems some ladies
were present for the purpose of witnessing
the manufacture of rosin, and it is likely that
the workmen, through their courtesy and
attentions to the visitors, failed to perceive
in time that the liquid was about to over
flow, and hence the catastrophe. The
damaee to the company and Mrs. Golden
(who lost ber two houses and their contents)
is estimated at aboct $20,uuu. sso insu
rance. Tbe Fire Company was on hand,
but, as usual, found their efforts ineffec
tual from the difficulty of getting the
heavy antiquated machine at a fire in time,
and the trouble of keeping enough men on
the brakes to throw the water.
"One of the operatives, a colored man
named Albert Croomes, was severely in
jured by the flood of flames and smoke,
which enveloped him before he could es
cape. . No .other casualty is reported."
A letter from Mr. Wilder, received here,
gives the loss ot the firm at about $1,500.
The damage to the distillery was Blight, the
loss being principally the turpentine de
stroyed. Profit of Telegraphing;.
Tbe whilom agent of the American
Union Telegraph Company in this city puts
but little faith in the current rumors ot that
company meeting the fate of its predeces
sors in being swallowed up by tbe Western
Union. It is cot likely, however, that the
monopoly so long eo joyed by the latter
will be broken up. The profits are too
great to be quietly surrendered. To see
what these are it is only necessary to refer
to the published report ot the Western
Union for the quarter ending with the pres
ent month and which closes the fiscal year.
This, it is stated, shows an increase of
over $1,600,000 gross, and $1,000,000 net
earnings over the previous year. The net
profits of tbe year will, it i3 estimated, be
about $5,300,000, or llf per oent. on the
capital stock, after deducting fixed charges
for interest and the sinking fund. Out of
this," 8 per cent, in cash dividends will have
been paid to the stockholders, and $1,-
543,000 invested in new property and held
as a surplus fund. To understand the true
inwardness of these figures, tbe public
must bear in mind the fact that the capital
stock of the company in question has been
watered," or doubled up without any ac
tual corresponding outlay of money, about
seven times the par value of the original
shares. A net profit of lit percent, on
the amount of-the present stock is, there
fore, equivalent to a yearly dividend of
about 75 per cent, on the original invest
ment. A Bad Lot.
There are some facts of physiological in
terest brought to light by the arrest of the
two young colored men named Hill men
tioned elsewhere. They belong to a family
of six persons, father and mother and four
children. The parents are represented to
be honest and industrious persons, against
whom so far as known no charge has ever
been brought, but the four children 'are
notorious, and have all been in the clutches
of the law on criminal charges. Besides
the two mentioned above, a sister has
served one term in the penitentiary for
larceny, and another, brother, under bail,
charged with house breaking, forfeited
his bond .'and disappeared some time
ago.

turned out a rather tame and spiritless
affair, was held at the Court House last
night, the understanding being that the
meeting was held- to endorse the recent
Presidential nominations at Chicago. A
band of music was broueht into reouisition
to aid in getting up sufficient enthusiasm to
make tbe affair go off creditably, but the
attemDt was futile. desDite the efforts of
Geo. Price and other dark and bright lights
of the party hereabouts. The Court House
was not crowded, but little interest being
manifested by the colored masses. Geo.

voked a weak cheer.
A Garfield and Arthur Club was organ

and cries of a suffering child, and becoming con

jost the article needed, procured a supply for the
hiuui vu mnciimg uume ana. acquainting us wire
with what he had done, she refused to have it ad
ministered to the child, as she was strongly in favor
of Homoeopathy.
That niffhtthe V.hUri

passed in
suffering, and the parents without sleep. Returning
stUl worse, and while contemplating another sleep
less night, the mother stepped from lhe room to at
tend to some domestic duties, and left the father
with the child. During her absence he administered
apor
ruon oi we Booming syrup to the babv. and
dthing. Thatnightall 1
said nothing. That night all hands slept well, and
i the little fellow awoke in the moraln
ui iuub leuow awoxe m ine morning nnght and
happy. The mother was delighted with the sudden
and wonderful change, and although at first offend
ed with the deception practiced upon her, has con.
tinned to use the Syrup, and suffering crying babies
and restless nights have disappeared. A single trial
of the gyrap never yet failed to relieve the, baby,
and overcome the prejudices of the mother. Sold
