Give us Wallace or let there be no Senator. General Garfield has been a mem ber of the Free Trade club of Lon don, the Cobden, since 1869. He is a pronounced free trader, and Gene ral Hancock favors a tariff for reve nueis not a free trader. The Radi cal manufacturers pretended they were scared to death at the idea of electing tbe pure Hancock and felt mighty eafo if they could only get the free trader Garfield of the Free Trade Club of London. Oh, the Varlets and hypocrites ! Gen. George B. Crittenden, of Kentucky, is dead. He was au un fortunate Confederate General. He had a brother who fought on the other side and with more skill.

Felix Zollicoffer, a native of North Carolinian, lost his life in trying to retrieve a battle already lo3t through the blunders of the Kenluckian. But peace to bis fpirit. He stood true to his people. The M VOL. XXVII. NO. 61 "A C1IIBI.4 AtTlANG YOU." The Baltimore American, which claims to be a Northern Radical paper, has a correspondent who is doing Virginia and North Carolina. In its issue of the 1st it has a letter written from Raleigh. It contains nothing new to us, but it will enable the ill informed abroad to learn some thing more about us thau they know now. After writing up Raleigh, the correspondent gives Home specimens of "double farming" of making two crops a year. We copy a paragraph concerning tobacco and cotton: "The leading products of the State are, of course, cotton and tobacco. The yield of the former for 18S0 ia estimated at 300, 000 biles, worth about $15,000,000, which is much less than the estimates made at Norfolk; while that of tobacco will proba bly approximate that or list year, or about 50,000,000 pounds, worth, at aa average, of 10 cents per pound, $4,500,000. I think it quite likely that the area of cotton-pro uuciug territory will bteadily increase from year to year, as it u ascertained that the crop can be profitably grown in localities where hitherto but little attention has been paid to Us cultivation. In respect to soil and climate, North Carolina is really a remarkable State." Of course a Radical correspondent of a Northern paper must have some thing to say of the "colored man and brother." We are glad that this one found him prospering just as Fred. Douglass found him. Wre give what he say 6: "The fchare that the colored man has had in developing its resources formed the sub ject of an interesting conversation which I enjoyed with a leading cotton broker yes terday, and I was glad to hear a good Democrat do justice to t:ie ihrift and in dustry of 'he negro It was but (he other day, he remarked, that be had purchased from h colored tanner 30 bales of cotton, wlncu the I tiler had grown on his own land. Hud wincii produced htm the handsome turn f ft. 500 lustaBcea if a similar character migi be multiplied indefinitely 1 tie priuciple thing whtcti at present stands iu (tie way ui tbe in iterinl ad Viocement of the rus-.e is the credit system. An advan tage in s -me rtsj eois, n operates to the duati viiutage of the colored planter, in that it invites extravagance iu laying in sup plies. It Is too otten the case that the pro ceeds ut the new crop are consumed in pay iDkr the debt. It is evident thai tbe col ored people are steadily hcq'iiring more piootMtv hoiI are bee inlioa more independ ent of liii whne"tmp!oyer." The South Carolinians sjem to be well pleaainl with tho views of Gov. Haoo'l as ct forth iu hit) inaugural address He does not dodge the importance of guarding the ballot box, and thus, refers to the Constitu tional requirement concerning the registration law: "Tnia pos live m-vnd-ite of the Constitu tion has not yet been obeyed. Ii is one of the m s'- ol)viouj means of securing the purity f the billot-box; and the failure to provide it was justly urged in complaint ngtiust th"S : wh co j'.rolled the State go vcrnm;ut for the eight years following the adoption f the Constitution. In my judgment, the discharge of this impera tive duty should no longer be delayed. In deed, iu mny particilars, our election Uwh, as they now stand, are defective, and their reviMn is one of the most important sulcus which demands your attention." It is mentioned in the London press as a curious fact that the Duke of Devonshire has 60,000 acres in Ireland and that tbe rents are all paid regularly. The following is given aa the true explication of the matter : "Many claim that tbe secret of this is the fact that' tbe Marquis of HartingtOD, the Duke's sod, ia Secretary of State for India, is very influential in tbe Cabinet, and the Lind League, being anxious to se cure bis opposition to coercive measeres, has secretly ordered his tenants to pay up in full and without murmuring." The Marquis is opposed to coercion or the suspension of the writ of habeas corpus. The Raleigh News- Observer places the damage done by the Durham fire at $100,000 insurance; $50,000. "We quote: "All the policies on the buildings and stocks were issued by James Southgate and no less than fifteen companies were repre sented. Tbe Insurance losses foot up some $50,000. Of the Rsleigh aencie9 Came on, Hay & Co., and W. W. Smitht and rhe North Carolina Home are the only losers. They only lose some $6,000. We learn from the Raleigh News Observer that the ten Democratic Electors (the News-Observer says twelve), met at Raleigh and cast the vote of the State for Hancock and English. Mr. Fab. H. Busbee, one of the Electors at Large, and who led the entire ticket, was chosen to carry the returns to Washington. This ia a graceful and well deserved compliment to the ability and zeal with which he performed his labors as a Democratic canvasser. The "Boys in Blue" in Washing ton will give Grant a big reception. May be if Mabson's boys in black were asked particularly to come on, and rations and a free ride were granted to boot, they could be per suaded to yield to the pressure. WILMINGTON, Spirits Turpentine, Salem Press: Rev. Samuel Long was stricken with paralysis on Thursday last. At last accounts be was doing toler ablp well. The health of Dr. Charles Phil lips is so much restored he has returned from New York, Hvhere he has been under treatment for a long time, to his home at Chapel Hill. He will not take work under a year. tA good suggestion. A Vir editor requests editors to lead their original articles and put their stolen scraps solid. This would save false credits and false appearances. How do you like the "idee ?" Elizobeth City JSconomi&t : Wild fowl shooting has now begun in earn est in Currituck Sound. They have never been more abundant than they are this season. They are shot from blinds and batteries and in all manner of ways, and the sportsmen are happy. The famed can vas backs have not yet made their appear ance in large quantities, but swan and wild geese abound. Elizabeth City Carolinian : Rice culture is beginning to command at tention in Eastern North Carolina. In va rious counties, including this, it has been tested on the high lands and with good success. A much larger area will be plant ed the coming season. In Perquimans there is some talk about a dual board of county Commissioners. Tbe courts may have to decide it. Winston Sentinel: The dwelling house of H. H. Caudle, of Lexington, was destroyed by fire on last Saturday. Loss about $1,000 a'nd no insurance. A negro broke both legs by jumping from the top of a freight car while in motion at Reid&rille. The change of the gauge of tbe Western North Carolina Railroad to conform to the gauge of the Richmond & Danville Railroad will divert trade to a considerable extent from Charlotte and Wilmington. Reidsville Times: Mr. James A. Robinson of the Winston Leader is an nounced as a candidate for reading clerk of the Senate it's a good place, the same that the limes' editor ran for some years since and received all of two votes. He would still like to have it if he wasn't in such need of it that he's too poor to run for it and do the necessary "flying around." As to the reading he has that down fine and would guarantee it done according to the Queen's taste. Laurinburg Enterprise : Pre suming that the Democratic party is dead, and that in future years the patronage of the government will be distributed among the truly loyal of the Republican party and that it perchance may catch a few droppings, the Salisbury Democrat, hereto fore extremely anti-Republican, has per formed a political somersault, turned its coat, increased its dimensions, changed its name, and now appears in the form of tbe Rowan Citizen, declaring that in future it will affiliate with the Republican party. Asheville News: There is talk of foiling a wood association in Asbeville and buying it in quantity on tbe line of the railroad and bringing it to the depot by rail. It can be delivered on the streets for about half what is asked for it at present on tne wagons. unapei mil items: Work began on the Chapel Hill Iron Mine Monday last. At present fourteen hands are employed. The University Rail road is at a stand-still, the convicts haviDg "gone West." They probably assisted in the late movement along the lino of the W. N. C. R. R. Louisburg Times: A terrible accident occurred at the residence of Mr. T. Collins, our county treasurer, Monday night, near midnight, whereby Miss Martha Pnvett, aged 17 years, was fatally burned. A kerdsene lamp, which she held in her bands, exploded and the blazing oil covered her from head to foot. Her clothes were burned off and her skin charred. She died on Tuesday evening. The cotton gin, grist and saw mill of Dr. W. J. Cooke was burned on Monday mgnt last, at nis residence, about bix miles from this place. The insurance upon the property had ex pired, and his los3, we learn, is about $1,000. Raleigh News- Observer: There --r i m . were is6uea aunng jxovemoer ioriy-six marriage licenses, a fairly good showing. Of these twenty were white and twenty-six colored. Five prisoners were put in jail yesterday for violation of the revenue laws. The a eaerai uouri attracts a good many persons, as witnesses, defen dants, etc. " Mrs. Helen Campbell has tendered her resignation of the position of superintendent of tbe cooking school at the Deaf, Dumb and Blind Institution, on ac count of ill health. The isoara or .Direc tors accepted the resignation, and appointed Miss Lizzie Turlington, a pupil of the school, in her place. LMr. C. is the Northern lady who thinks so well of Tourgee's books. Stab I. Reidsville Times: We hear that Mr. Robert Crumpton, who lived near Cedar Grove, N. C, fell from bis horse last Saturday and broke his neck tie is said to have been drinking. A negro man, an employee of A. U. Telegraph Company, bought a pistol at $3 50, and it cost him yesterday (Tuesday) $5 45 to shoot it in Reidsville. It went off at a pig. The eectlemau was from Richmond and was doubtless getting nis nana in lor a uuei. The 2 imes returns thanks to two of the prettiest young ladies in Reidsville for a fine turkey Bent us for Thanksgiving Day. We are on line and shall obediently carry out the Governor's proclamation, and to such of the brethren as are not prepared to gravy to it as we ore, we offer a hearty condolence. But let them say grace all the same. Charlotte Observer: In the ex citement of the occasion we forgot to men tion that there were five editors in town to see tbe circus: Wolfe and Boylin, of Mon roe, Harris and Woodhouse, of Concord, and DeLane, of Lincolnton. They all bad other business, except Harris, who ac knowledged the corn. About 5 o'clock, day before yesterday afternoon, while the South bound passenger train, No. 42, on the Air-Line Road, Mr. Samuel Foster, en gineer, and Capt. Jas. W. Oliver, conduc tor, was approaching Greenville, S. C, at the rate of fifty miles au hour, a figure on horseback was seen by tbe engineer at tempting to cross the road. It was but twenty-five yards ahead, and in an instant before the lever could be re versed tbe horse was struck dead and thrown off the track. The rider disappeared. When the train was stopped he was found on tbe pilot, still in bis saddle, stone dead. He was an old man, gray-haired, and , was af terwards recognized as George Martin, a respectable citizen of Greenville county. Raleigh Farmer cfc Mechanic: It may be proper to state that Gov. Jarvis lakes the ground that as the Legislature will meet in January, he is not willing to permit the lease of the A. & N. C. R- R. without submitting the question to that OMING N. C. FRIDAY. DECEMBER 3, 1880. body. This may be best, but it would have been better not to have left the impression during the campaign that he would execute the wish of the private stockholders. One of the Johnston county friends of this paper. Mr. J. W. Wellons, made this year, with four plows, 75 bales of cotton, 65 barrels of corn, 800 bushels of rust proof oats, and 100 bushels of potatoes. Corn and oats were almost a failure owing to tbe sea son. Had the crop been an average one he would have made 90 bales, 200 barrels, and so on. -Mr. W. P. Motgomery, of Franklin, another of our patroas, made 50 bales of cotton and 537 bushels of wheat. It is rumored that Messrs. Black well & Co. will put in a bid for the State printing, tbev having an extensive printing establish ment at Durham. It is understood that tbe complications arising from Mr.W P.

Another Candidate for the Peniten tiary The residence of Mr. W. B. McKoy, in this city, was robbed on Tuesday last, during the temporary absence of the fami ly, of a large number of articles, including several vests, an overcoat, three pairs of pants, a hat, a pair of fine shoes, and a quantity of old clothing. Circumstances led to tbe belief that one Allen Armstrong, a colored boy, who had been in tbe'-em-ploy of Mr. McKoy, was the thief. A warrant wes thereupon issued for bis ar rest and placed in the hands of Officer J. A. Ashe, who succeeded in recovering a number of the articles here on Wednes day afternoou, and that evening, ascertain ing that Armstrong hud left town, he fol lowed him up to the house of bis parents, about five miles beyond Rocky Point, where he arrived about 9 o'clock, just in time to catch the boy in the act of display ing his ill-gotten gains to bis father and mother, whom he was telling that be had purchased the articles with money honestly earned. The officers Arrested the boy and brought him to this city the same night, when be was committed for trial before J. P. Hill, J. P., yesterday morning. The case came up for a hearing before Justice Hill in due time, and resulted in the defendant being ordered to give bond in the sum of $200, justified, for his appear ance at ths present term of the Criminal Court, in default of which he was lodged in jail. Tho facts of the robbery came to our knowledge on Wednesday last, but we acceded lo a request to suppress tho partic ulars at the time. A IJn In tbe Room. Henry Brewingloo, colored, living on Fifth, between Bladen and Harnett streets, says he was uwakened yesterday morning, between 2 and 3 o'clock, and found a stout colored individual in the hall, where he bad been sleeping. For the moment he was frightened and brought two yells, follow ing up tbe last one with a leap over the foot of his bed and a pursuit of the in truder, who made a dash for the front door, through which he escaped to the street, pulling the shutter to after him. Brewinglon, in his night clothes, sped af ter the fleeing marauder, but failed to over take Lim, and finally returned to hi3 room, when he heard a noise outside and went to see what it meant, and was just in lime to see his visitor, who had returned, making off the second time, and, upon investiga tion, he found that his object was to get his , ha l and shoes, which, in his rapid flight, he had left behind him at the door where" he had entered; and this lime he only succeeded in recovering one shoe, the other a cumber 12 and tbe bat falling into tbe hands of the man he had attempt ed lo rob. Brewington then commenced dressing himself, when he discovered that the Eum of $2.50 in money and his knife and a lead pencil had been taken from the pocket of his pantaloons, which were in the room of bis daughter, adjoining the hall. The knife and pencil were afterwards found on a chair, ehowing that the object of the thief was money, and nothing but money. meteorological Report. From Sergeant James M.

Tbe farm of Mr. Asa Hewett, near Sbal lotte, Brunswick county, together with its contents, was destroyed by fire a day or two since. The loss is estimated at about $400, upon which there was no insnrance. The origin of the fire our informant could not state. Rev. R. R, Bukts, of Manata, Fla., says: "Tult's Pills are held in high repute as a liver regulator tn this hot climate. In fact I hardly know bow we would get along without them. Chills and Fever have lost dread. Our people take one or two doses of the pills and follow it with fifteen grains of quinine, divided in three doses during the day. Tbe ague never returns." f ,11 ' 1 II !' TAR WHOLE NO. 4,150 Attempted Highway Uobbory.
