BERNARD. WILMINGTON, N. C. Monday Evening, Oct. 27, 1884. EVENING EDITION. BEECHER AS A CAMPAIGNER. We do not often read campaign speeches. But we did read Henry Ward Beecher's, and of its kind it was indeed capital. There is no living American who can be placed with him, take him all and in all. As a platform speaker he is of the very first order,- As a lecturer he has but very few equals. As a preacher he is almost unrivalled. The celebra ted Dr. Parker, of London, in one of his books we have read, says Beecher is the greatest Kvipg preacher. As a! writer he ranks high. His prayers as published, are the most remark able in literature that are the produc tions of one brain. His reading is wide. His learning is' varied and, perhaps, profound. Such is Beecher and .without exaggeration. In one particular he unquestionably excels any preacher whose productions are in book form. , None of the great Continental preachers equalled him in fertility of illustration. In that . special gift he is unrivalled. Neither Masillon, nor Fenelon, nor Bossuet nor any of the pulpit masters of Europe equalled him. In Great Britain neither South, nor Jeremv Taylor, nor Helvill, nor Robert Hall, nor Chalmers, nor Whitefield, nor any other preacher ever equalled Beecher in the inexhaustible richness and variety of illustrations.' What a politician Beecher would have made. He is a born "stumper." He can make a Tetter, a more tellinc, a more magnetic campaign speech than aDy politiciamin the North. We doubt if there has been his equal as a stump speaker in that great section since Tom Corwift died. Beecher, for once in his life, is on the right side. He is for Cleveland, and his speeches must have a considerable effect in New York. He is a power, and if he had never been under a cloud and his mo rality had never been suspected he would produce a tremendous impres sion throughout the country. - In his Brooklyn speech last week Tie stood by the Constitution and gave Paternal Government a black eye. He said: ; "There is a higher question the educa tion, of the people by the States or by the Federal Government; the prevention of that disguised heresy, the paternal Government The paternal Government is only a con cealed word for the internal Government The only thing that the Government has to do is to stand by and give every man fair play. The business of the Government is the rights of the laborers against combined capital; the defense of the individual as against corporate bodies, no socialism, no communism, no nihilism, the safety of an American citizen the world over." From first to last the speech was a "rouser," full of pith and vigor, and abounding in- point and incisiveness. It is excellent reading, and this can not be said often of good campaign speaking. Here is an impressive passage. It contains a truth it is well to remember.' He said: "There is here, in some respects, one of the sublimest spectacles. You are one of the great councils of the people. io you know that those gatherings of the people whether of one side or the other are the sources of all laws, institutions, ancT gov ernments among our people? To be sure, the Mississippi and the Oregon, in their lower measures and spaces, are more visi ble, but in the mountains the springs are fed which create them. Legislatures seem to be more eminent than those popular gatherings,: but you are above Legislatures. You are the makers of Legislatures. Courts seem to be more venerable, but you make courts and 'Judges. Congress and the Presidency are ordinarily thought to be high in honor and dignity, but you are the source of all their honor, of all their author ity, and all their power. Applause. J "It behooves you, therefore, not to make mere amusement of this work. I speak to you as to a jury. The case before you is not that of some trembling culprit, or some wronged citizen seeking redress. ; It is your whole country that is before you to night, whose cause I am to plead, to plead as if life or death hung on the issues. Ap plause." Beecher reviewed a part of Blaine's vile life and he did not spare him. He gave an account of his interview with "the plumed knave" at the Fifth. Avenue; Hotel, He took up Blaine's civil service record and ex posed it. He rejoicad in being a Puritan and said in stirring elo quence: "What is the tone of moral sense of peo ple who, when a body of men are anxious to redeem the Government from corruption, call them Pharisees ? as if to seek to stem the tide of corruption was to say 'I am holier than thou, I am a Pharisee.' Who was the Pharisee ? In the earlier day he was the Puritan of the Jews. The Phari sees were the men that in the Babylonish captivity undertook to keep their own peo ple from idolatry, and help them into the worship of Jehovah. They were the Puri tans of the Orient as the Englishmen were the Puritans of the Occident. It was the Puritan that gave liberty to old England, and it was the Puritan that brought liberty to New-England, laid the foundations of the institutions on which we stand. So the Pharisee were the Puritans, and I am a Pharisee, thank od. Tremendous ap plause." He showed a high and proper ap preciation of Cleveland. As Govern or he said of him: "Nor has there been any sort of chance to make any effectual criticism on his ad ministration since he has been Governor of this imperial State. Applause. In this position, simple as a child, sincere as a saint. applause, with broad common sense and very uncommon honesty, ap plause, a true and enthusiastic member of the Democratic party, applause, but put ting the whole State and the whole country higher than the party, applause, while Mr. Blaine has been imitating the pothouse politicians in the ward elections, going from grog shop to groe shop, and crooning with men, dishonoring the example of all Presidential candidates we have ever had up to this hour, making a canvass every where throughout New York State and throughout Ohio, throughout Indiana and Michigan, and coming back soon to upset everything in Brooklyn and New York, here, laughter there staid Grover Cleve land, refusing to stir! Prolonged ap plause. He attended to the duties of his office and let the country employ its own best judgment as to whether he should go higher." BLAINE OPPOSED TO A REDUC TION OF THE SURPLUS AND TAXATION. Blaine has never shown any states manship in his life. He has shown all of the evil arts of the dema gogue and has played the bully and braggart to perfection, but he has never exhibited either the insight, ability or consistency of a statesman. He stands before the American peo ple to-day as the expounder of false ideas and exploded theories in eco nomic science. He poses before his audiences as the advocate of High Taxation, and tells his hearers in effect that the true way to national progress and prosperity is by taking from the pockets of the people their earnings. In other words, that the way to make a country rich and flourishing is to pile up the taxes. That is Blaineisni boiled down. But not only does Blaine advocate High Taxes, bat he actually favors its continuance in order that a great surplus may be derived therefrom . There is a surplus! now in the Trea sury of the United States of 400 mil lions. This is the excess of taxes above the expenses of Government, The people have been robbed of this vast sum for nothing. The expenses of the Government are very high- full one-third more than is really ne cessary, and still the Republicans pile up the surplus, and oppose Tariff reduction. Call that statesmanship ? It is foolishness,and criminal foolish ness, because it oppresses and de spoils the people. ; Blaine is an arrant fraud in states manship as he is in all things. He is blind and fatuous enough to fight the declarations of his own party in Convention assembled. At Chicago the Republicans declared: "The Republican party pledges itself to CORRECT THE INEQUALITIES OF THE TA KTFF, and TO REDUCE THE SURPLUS, not by the vicious and indiscriminate process of horizontal reduction, but by such methods as will relieve the taxpayer without in 1u nng the labor or the great productive in terests of the counjry." Here are admitted two things that are most important for the tax' payers. It is admitted by the : Re publicans in National Convention ' that ;: L-v' 1. p.The Tariff abounds in inequalL ties. This means that it bears unfair ly and unequally upon the tax payers. - 2. That the surplus is so great that it must be reduced. r r t Now Blaine says that the Tariff must be kept up, and it now ave rages the enormous sum of 43 per cent. He says furthermore that the enormous surplus must be kept up also.r Now . Secretary of Treasury Gresham made a speech in New York recently and he did not agree with Major Blaine. He distinctly took the other side. He said this: "A liberal estimate will not require more than $50,000,000 for the sinking fund for the current year, and we will have a sur plus over this of, sar, $40,000,000 or $50, 000,000. The steady . development of the country and the growth of its trade and commerce will increase the revenues under existing laws. There is, therefore, , no ne cessity for maintaining our present rate of taxation." But this is not all of Blaine's finan cial and political stupidity. He once wrote a letter and not a year ago in which he advocated the plan of keeping up the surplus and to dis tribute the whiskey tax among the States. He does not say anything of this brilliant scheme as he goes through the land with his circus and his harangues. The New York Times thus comments upon Blaine's un statesmanhke, absurd and unjust pro position: "That proposition was a fair measure cf Blaine's statesmanship. One could expect no solution of the revenue problem more satisfactory and statesmanlike from the Speaker who reminded Fisher and Cald well of the ruling that saved the Little Rock grant, the Congressman who fell on his knees before Mulligan, the Senator who strove to defeat the Thurman act, the Cab inet Minister who upheld the Landreau guano claim in Peru, and the speculating politician who 'stood on velvet in the Hocking Valley enterprise. It was uncon stitutional, and would be in practice most un fair, dangerous, and demoralizing. We do not expect that this candidate who talks so broadly and generously about protection will reproduce for the edification of his audiences this ridiculous distribution scheme which he put forth with a flourish of trumpets less than one year ago. We do not expect that he will now advocate this or any other plan for reducing the sur plus, for the reason that he and the men who surround him prefer that there shall be a surplus, and a large one. They thrive upon conditions that breed extravagant legislation and they sneer at old-fashioned economy. They have no sympathy with those who hold that all taxation shall be limited to the requirements of economical government." TAXES A CONTRAST. Voters would do well to bear in mind some facts and figures. All good citizens must desire honest, economical, just government. All the burden bearers must be anxious to keep down the taxes. All men of ordinary sense know that taxes are a necessity, and yet they are a curse. They take from men their earnings, but it is necessary that this should be done. The true tend of Government is to protect men in life, -liberty and property. To do this the expense should be as little as possible Therefore, the taxes should be made just as light as the demands and ex igencies of Government will allow. Bearing this in mind,read the follow ing figures that tell a true story that all taxpayers are interested in: RATE OP TAXATION IN NORTH CAROLINA.

J. Hale & Son, 1884. This is a nicely printed, beautifully illustrated and very neatly bound edition of one of the most ex quisite poems in American literature. The mechanical execution is all that taste could desire. The paper is heavy and fine and the illustrations are appropriate and artistic. Timrod was a genius to a great extent a neglected genius. He was a South Caroli nian and a very genuine child of song. Poe was born in Boston, but he has been claimed always as Southern. In education, sympathies, . tastes and prejudices he was Southern. Of the poets born in the South the best of all were born in South Carolina Timrod and Hayne; The dainty little volume before us will be a choice present for the holidays. 1 ; The FUJiea of the East Atlantic Coast, that are caught with Hook ; and Line, by Louis D.

This elaborate title page explains fully the aim of the book." It seems to ' be the book needed for those interested in the piscato rial business."

A letter from Cleveland tells us that a large number of Republicans in that city and in the northern part of Ohio, who votedfor the Republican: State ticket : and for Republican Congressmen, will vote against the Blaine ticket in November. There is little doubt that : this will be the case all over Ohio. jy. T. Herald, Oct. GREATEST OF THE PARADES Seventeen Thousand ,Bailne - Men Maren for Cleveland and Reform Seven Thousand Dry Goods men In Line. ; v! ' -i ; ' ;; . New York Herald, Oct. 56th. The "Cleveland and Hendricks" parade yesterday of the business men of New York was the greatest and most 'imposing outpouring of sub stantial citizens that has ever been witnessed in' this- or any other city of the continent. Everybody expected that the parade would be a big affair,. but"it far surpassed the most san guine expectations of its promoters. It was a vast popular . demonstration that was fairly astounding in its pro portions and enthusiasm. People re membered the tremendous gathering in Wall street a couple of weeks ago. They recalled the many signifi cant features of that demonstration. The whirl of the campaign-had not dimmed their realization of the fact that up to that time the Wall street event was the greatest thing in recent Democratic history; that men turned out then who had never turned out before in a political-demonstration; that thousands - of men who had al ways regarded the Democratic jjarty as a thing to be avoided enthusiasti cally marched the streets for a Dem ocratic candidate; that hundreds of the men who displayed badges were men worth their millions, who went heartily into their first street parade because they believed the rule of the man they marched for would be vast ly better and safer than the "bril liant" pyrotechnic and magnetic ad ministration of his opponent. So that people were prepared for an im posing array yesterday. ' EXPECTATIONS FAB SURPASSED. But they were not prepared for what actually occurred. It simply staggered those who , looked for something big. And the men who make cool calculations about such things and estimate the effect they, will have in a political canvass saw' their calculations, go all to atoms. CURRENT COMMENT. Mr. Blaine says the Demo crats will "seize the Government" if they carry the solid South, New York and Indiana. No doubt of it. That will give them the necessary electoral votes, and if they do not "seize the Government" they will do an unpre cedented thing. We feel quite con fident that the Government will be "seized" next March by Gov. Cleve land, the same seizer that captured New York two years ago. Boston Herald, Ind. Hep. Every "business man" who marched and bellowed for Blaine in Wall Street yesterday publicly an nounced his willingness to have his bookkeeper, cashier and clerks make money illicitly out of their positions. That is precisely what Jas. G. Blaine did as a member of Congress and Speaker of the National House' of Representatives, and that is the "business" that is up for indorsement or rejection by the people' of the United States. Neto York World, Dem. A Glorious Speecn. Correspondent of the News-Observer. Wadesboko, N. C, October 23. Maj. Stedman and Judge Faircloth spoke here to-day. The audience was composed of one white Radical the postmaster at this place a dozen or eo negroes and, a large number of Democrats. Major Stedman made a magnificent speech; in fact the best I have heard since the war. He took the audience by storm and carried it with him. Up to this morning poli tics here seemed at a stand-still dead. But now every man is wild with enthusiasm for the Democratic cause. His speech has done a world of good in this county. If he could make two or three such speeches in our county old Anson would roll up such a Democratic majority this year as was never heard of before. Hurrah for Stedman ! Voter. a-a-K COTTON. N. Y.

Extracts from Communication on the Therapeutic Action of the Buffalo Lithia 'Water in the l' Virginia Medical Monthly" -for February, 1877. , "Their great value in Malarial Diseases and Sequela has been most abundantly and satisfac torily tested; and I have no question that it would have been a valuable auxiliary in the treatment of the epidemic of Yellow Fever which so terribly afflicted the Mississippi Valley during the past summer. I prescribed It myself, and it gave prompt relief in a case of Suppression of Urine, in Yellow Fever, and decidedly mitigated other dis tressing and dangerous symptoms. The patient re covered, but how far the water may have contri buted to that result (having prescribed it iu but a single case) I, of course, cannot undertake to say. There is no doubt, however, about the fact thut its administration was attended by the most benefi cial results." Springs now opens for guests.
