The gulf yawns.
Cameron is now relying on 40,000

Billy Mahone paid the colored
blasphemer, Langston, $2,500 for his
services, but .it brought no due re
turns. John S. Wise and a Democrat in
Lancaster county, Va., drew pistols
on each other, but were prevented
from usino- them .
What State in tbe Union has two
Senators who are the equal of Ran
som and Vance before the people ?
Not one, we are sure.
William J. Hamilton, it is alleged,
has been entirely sane since 1876.
At that time he was sent to the Lu
natic Asylum at Ward's Island, N. Y.
If true it is a great shame.
Capt. Bob Lyon is the Libero-Re-publicano-AntiiProhibitiono
candi
date for the Senate from Bladen and
Brunswick. He was a rampant Pro
hibitionist last year, and made
speeches in favor of it. Next!
"Governor Tom Crittenden says: The
Greeubackers are the only free traders, i. e.,
they are always ready for a free fight." Ex-
Hope Col. Tom had no reference to
reenbacker Winston, who is dying
to get something.
Pat Donan is persuading people to
go to Dakota. What for? When
last heard from he was lecturing at
Fargo.. A man must be far gone
who would leave Southern civiliza
tion for "such a country and such a
people."
We do not know anything about
Joseph N. Dolph, Senator elect from
Oregon, but he cannot be a worse
man than the fellow he beats John
Hippell Mitchell. It speaks well for
Oregon that this fellow is dropped.
Of course he is a Radical. '
THE IViOENING
VOL. XXXI. NO. 28.
"While the Revenue bosses in North
Carolina are crowing and bragging
about what they are going to do in
November, it is interesting and en
couraging to 'know that Big Boss
Arthur is not uproarious, and his
Cabinet are in the same dubious and
doleful sorts. A special from Wash
ington on the 22nd to the Baltimore
Sun has this cheering announcement:
"In the informal discussions on the politi
cal situation between the President and the
members of the Cabinet on Friday and
again on last night, the anticipations as to
what the ides of November will bring
forth were not of the most cheering char
acter. It is a significant and unmistakable
fact that Republican losses are expected by
every member of the Cabinet in his own
State, with the possible exception of Secre
tary Frelinghuysen, and-th.is for the reason
that the Republicans never Expect much in
New Jersey any way. Even that most adroit
politician, Secretary Chandler, views tbe
handwriting on the wall with evident appre
hension, and had no good news to commu
nicate to the President and the Cabinet. It
is ctfven out to-day as the official determina
tion of the President and Cabinet that gov
ernment employes must consider themselves
as entirely free, if so disposed, to decline
any more contributions to campaign funds.
It must be that this decision was arrived at
because the President and his Cabinet are
at last convinced that this is one of the
years when money cannot stem the over
whelming tide of public opinion. It is not
more than two weeks since an intimate
friend of Secretary Folger declared that
they would buy enough v.otes to elect him
Governor of New York. "
"An Ethiopian cannot change his color,
nor a leopard his skin, but my God !
fellow-citizens, how quick a white man be
comes a nigger when he votes the Repub
lican ticket. Jame M. Leach, Hancock
Elector for 1880."
Leach denies this famous saying,
but unfortunately hundreds and thou
sands heard the bitter partisan use
this language. A correspondent
writing from Taylorsville on the 16th
inst., to the Statesville Landmark,
says:
"There are thousands of men in the State
that heard him say it, and they have not
forgotten it. Robert "Watts, a colored
school teacher in this county, who heard
him deny it here on Friday, says he heard
him use it in Statesville two years ago. The
colored people have not forgotten his slan
derous abuse of past years, and the white
people never will. "
It is something when the old sinner
has shame enough to deny this and
other hard sayings of his.
Ikey Young has pocketed $60,000 of the
people's money ($5,000 a year for the last
twelve years,) as collector of the Raleigh
revenue district. Lexington Dispatch.
Several years ago we heard the
late Richard C. Badger say that at
that time Young's annual pay was
full $19,000. It was razeed after
that,but we suppose he has averaged
at least $10,000 since the Revenue as
pirant changed his politics, for he
too was a Democrat.
Whoever expected to see the day
when under a Radical Administra
tion it would become uncomfortable
and unprofitable in North Carolina
and Virginia for an old soldier to
stand by the Republican colors and
to be suspected of being a traitor for
so doing ? And yet such is the fact
under Boss Arthur and Boss Mott
and Boss Mahone.
The much talked of Casino in New
York has been opened, and although
owing to its construction it was ex
tremely cold and windy, 1,200 ladies
and men attended the first perform
ance and were delighted. Every
seat was taken and many had to
stancL
Jones of the New York Tiines was
offered a big office if he would make
his paper "siz" for the Folger. He
dipped his iron at once in a tub of
"frozen water," and ever since then
the Times has been of the tempera
ture of the North Pole.
THE STATE CAMPAIGN.
J. William Thome, the infidel who was
expelled from the Legislature, is a candi
date for the Senate in Warren.
Pemberton and Turner, two Democrats,
are running for the Legislature in Cabarrus
agaiDst one Rad. Draw straws, gentlemen,
and let one retire. Do not help lose the
Legislature.
Leach passed through last night and his
most intimate friends failed to recognize
him. He was mistaken for the agent of an
indigo factory. He was a sight to look at.
So blue. Greensboro Patriot.

Lenoir Topic.
The Independent-Liberal candidate "for
the office of Superior Court Clerk in this
county, T. A. Grady, gets things badly
mixed at times. It has not been many years
since he refused to shake hands with Gov.
Brogden because the latter was a Republi
can. Now.he expects to be elected by negro

speaker he has few superiors in North Caro
lina, and we are hopeful of most cheering,
results. wutiam8ton limes. .
A letter from Yadkinville informs us that
Leach spoke two hours and a half in the
courthouse in that place last Monday, to
an audience of , 39 persons, 14 of whom
were Democrats and two of them from
the country. We are informed that he de
voted himself to himself, and that he "cut
up more shines than Robinson's Brazilian
monkey. Statesville Landmark.
This S pel man who runs a paper called
the Journal, in Raleigh, says: "We are in
formed that Senator Vance's speech in Le
noir was one ol tne most vulgar and inde
cent harangues ever delivered in public."
and dares Vance or his friends to deny it.
We deny it. There is not a word of truth
in the statement. There were ladies present
to hear tne Senator.anaweknow and every
one knows who heard him, that no more
chaste or more modest address was ever de
livered in our court house. Lenoir Topic.
Our news from Stokes county is of the
most encouraging character, and we may
look for one oi her old-time rousing Demo
cratic majorities and the election of the en
tire Democratic county ticket. Rev.
L. Rights, who announced himself as an
independent candidate for Register of
Deeds for this county, has withdrawn from
the race and will give his support to Capt.
Mast. If Leach and Price were such
popular gentlemen as the Mott Republicans
claim them to be, why is it that Dr. Mott
sends them so far from home to do their
speaking? Winston Sentinel.
We hear that when Dockery spoke at
Bakersville, his most ardent and vociferous
friend was a Republican from East Tennes
see, who shouted and applauded him with
out stint for the first hour. Col. D. in
jected into his old speech at that point an
eulogium on Col. Folk, and called upon
his friends to rally to his support. His
Tennessee friend had never heard before
that Folk was on the ticket, and left, mut
tering as he 'went," that's enough for me."
"What is enough," said an acquaintance at
the door? "Why he is running on a
ticket with old Folk.'1 "Well what have
you against Folk ?" "What have I against
Folk, why d n him, he hung my daddy."

Newton Enterprise : Dr. Ford,
of Bandy's township, tells us that diphthe
ria lias become an epidemic in the western
part of Catawba, and in portions of Burke
and Cleaveland counties. It is of a ma
lignant form and proves Jvery fatal. In
one graveyard in Cleaveland county twenty
children were buried in ten days.
Hickory Carolinian: We would
like to see Judge Meares of the Wilmington
Criminal Court, promoted to the State Dis
trict Bench. lie sent two men to jail for
applauding the verdict of a jury in his
court last week. Courts are coming to be
looked on by many folkB as nothing more
than an ordinary gathering for amusement
or eujoyment..
Tarboro Guide: Thursday af
ternoon, as the train was leaving William
ston for the river, a colored woman was
walking on the track. The engineer blew
his whistle and reversed his lever. The
woman stepped out on the end of one of
the cross ties, but not far enough to prevent
the tender from striking her. She was
knocked down the embankment and died
in less than an hour.
Danbury Reporter: The Pep

of value to be found in the county, with
the name of the owner of. the land upon

ranged that speculators or lovers of the
curious may see them at all times, and
know where they are found.

past week a most interesting rehgioxs re

through next week. Yesterday there were
thirty-five penitents at the altar, and during

conversions. The State Fair grounds

to be awarded at the Sampson Fair. Nov.

in their lists in a day or two, which will be
published as fast as received: W. E.

rel "Onslow" extra family flour, for the
largest yield of corn from a one-horse crop.
M. J. Dinglehoef, one nice silver preserve
dish, for the best display of pies and cakes.
Wilmington Wants a Good White
Brass Band.
What is to be thought of a city of twenty
thousand population and not a single white
brass band ? Wilmington is in that unen
terprising condition just now. For some
years our city boasted of a first-class white
band, but it has gone the way of all such
enterprises in Wilmington. One of the
best and most useful members of the late
Wilmington Cornet Concert Club informed
us yesterday, however, that he would wil
lingly assist in reorganizing the band if
others would show a deposition to do like
wise. Wilmington -certainly needs a good
band, and we hope she may soon have it.

that time if nothing serious happens to pre
vent. His .lectures will be for the benefit
of Front Street Methodist Church.
OPERA HOUSE.
Jno, A. Stevena In 14 Passion's Slave."
Another large crowd attended the Theatre
last night and witnessed the performance of
"Passion's Slave," by Mr. John A. Stevens
and Company. The play is a melodrama,
abounding in numerous exciting scenes and
strong situations, with plenty of fun and
frolic generally mixed in to give rarity and
contrast, and its presentation was often
loudly applauded by the audience. The
acting was very good throughout and jus
tice done all the parts, the comedy business
being particularly well done and eliciting
from those in attendance the greatest share
of favor. In this line Miss Vane, as the
lady's maid, and Messrs. Walton and Pear
son, as her lovers, bore off the honors which
their execellent acting richly deserved.
Old Landmarks.
Workmen were engaged yesterday in do
molishing the old buildings just south of
Princess, between Second and Third Streets,
being probably among the oldest buildings
in the city. One of them is commonly re
ported to have been the house in which Wm,
Hooper, one of the signers of the Declare
lion of Independence, was born. It bears
the impress of extreme old age and ia built
in a style which must have prevailed a
good many years ago, the walls asgwell as
the roof being covered with shingles
Slowly but surely the landmarks which
have served as links to connect us with
the past generations are giving place to
the march of improvement and progress,
and soon we will have nothing to remind
us of those eventful times of which we
have heard our fathers so often speak. '
