The Morning Star. By WIXiIilASX H. i BKBNARJD. WILMINGTON N. C. Thuesday EvENnra, Feb. 26, 1885. EVENING EDITION. A SWEEPING LAW, We , are surprised to learn that there is a very decided feeling in the Legislature to pass a law concerning I lands bought ! in by the State that gives no extension of time or notice. The passage of such a law will be an - oppr.88ion. We suppose in every county in North Carolina there are : good citizens who have permitted from one" cause or another their homes to go into the possession of the State for taxes due, and " because of the law of custom because all through the years gone by the Leg islatures 'from time to time have granted indulgence. It would be an act of arbitrariness and oppression if the present Legislature should re fuse to grant any extension of tima to redeem lands sold for taxes or to - serve notice that if within so many months if the lands are not redeemed that this shall be the end that there v shall be something of a foreclosure. we believe the legal phrase is, and all lajids shall be forever forfeited to the State. It strikes us, who are citizens merely and not lawyers, that the Legislature cannot do less, if it de sires to do right, .than to give four or six months notice before sacrifi cing the homes of many worthy and v industrious men throughout North Carolina. .Legislators should act upon the golden rule of the Scrip , tures of Inspiration do as they c weula be done by. It would be ex cessively arbitrary, in view of the - action of former Legislatures, for . the present ; body to pass a law in which no time was given to redeem ; lands sgld for taxes. That will be the judgment ,of 999 men in the 1,000 if they are just and intelligent. We. learn from lawyers in - Wll mington that the enactment of such a law as is proposed would be a great hardship to many people in this coun tv. We learn that several of our lawyers have in their" hands the , moneys of clients to redeem the lands . as soon as it - is made legal to do so. A condition of things that exists in v- -cm ew.nanover prooaDiy ; exists in every county in this section of the ; ; State and possibly in every county in -North Carolina? y : . If no extension of time is granted in o ' Tnorai Uxxr fhor, nm. ortT,i v,V net tiiof "KToto TFonrvDo . (it least .be exempt, from the sweeping effects - of the : bill. Probably the legislators will, grant that much to this part of the State, j -THOSE BONDS OF IN141UITT.

The Stab in A vivid, ffraphio and truthful history of those" tunes would be a desidera 'and we wish some thoroughly honest and" eomoetent hand would. I undertake the work. - '' : At a time when Judges were pur chased on the Bench-to carry out the nefarious plans of scoundrels and plundeiers; at a time when native North Carolinians were selling their souls for money; at a time when even Democrats in office were "bor- rowing ' money trom DriDers ana corrnntionistsf 1 at a time when Mi ' : r , , , the best people in North 5 Caro lina were banned and stigmatized and even their lives were in dan ger ; at a time when ; the Capi tol of the State was oonverted into an assignation house and its rooms fairlv reeked with" the stench of 3 liquors and bad preatns; at - S time when the plucked and oppressed peo ple of North. Carolina, without the rights of freemen and without means, were looked upon as the proper vic tims for raDacious adventurers and treacherous natives these Special Tax J bonds were created. Ihey were concocted in fraud and thrown into market in villainy. This is history and not fancy. No reflecting North Carolinian who knows of the past, cannot desire or favor the paynent of these bonds of iniquity. TV, Ttainh Honi&tpr The Raleigh Register takes the proper view, w e lay Deiore our readers an instructive paragraph or two. It says: "Durinean this time only sucn lax- payers and property-owners as had permis sion from the military authorities were per mitted to vote, while in 1867. 70, OK) igno rant negroes were turned loose " to plunder the property or their late masters, tne aforesaid disfranchised tax-pajere ind property-owners, underthe lead of a cormo rant band of carpet-baggers protectea oy Federal bayonets. This plundering they sought to accomplish by means" of the Special Tax Bonds issued by the Conven tion and Legislature of looo. "Our people deny that they are in any manner bound by the acts of men thus put over them by tne Jb ederal troops, oy wnom they were then being held in military sub jection after a bloody war of four long years. 1 JHo person could nave brought mese bonds supposing they had any validity, save that given to them by the bayonet. lio sane person could for a moment nave supposed that the people of North Caro lina would bear the shackles thus forced upon them an instant after they had ac quired the power to shake them on. livery purchaser had full notice of their pedigree. Referring to the debate in the House of Commons on the vote of censure proposed, the N. Y. Times say 8: "If the House fails to vote a-. want of confidence its refusal will not amount to a vote of confidence in the Government. It will amount to a vote of a greater want of confidence in the opposition. This is well taken. England will gain nothing by turning out confess edly its ablest statesman and with him the party of reform,' and putting in men who in ability are not worthy to sit at the footstool of Mr. Gladstone, and with them the old, blind Tory party that has always fonght every change that looked to the relief and I benefit of the neoDle. unless it was A. when driven to the wall and fears were uppn it. w nat could the l o ries do in the Soudan that the Gov ernment cannot do? If England's voice is the continuance of an un wise and useless struggle from which neither gain nor. permanent glory can come, then an able Ministry is much better than a weak one." The Government will probably do the very things that the Tories would be compelled to do if restored to power. It really would seem that the Legislature cannot well hesitate to help the maimed soldiers of North Carolina! A Legislature that has been so liberal in responding to the claims of education and recommen dations of officials oughtnot to re fuse to give some help to meritorious soldiers who were maimed for life in defence of what we all believed to be sacred and just, and in obedience to. the call of North Carolina. We do not undertake to say how much rought to be given, but we do say this; the appropriation in its scale of liberality ought to be on a par with other appropriations. It is said that North Carolina is well able to give $27,500 each year to the education of ine 0o8 at - Chapel urn. uught it I not to be - able then to give & hand- some Sum to the men who wore the I . .. , ..... .. gra7 m the days ot tnai and conflict and who caxT ePty sleeves or hob- ble on wooden-legs through life? In our discussion of the ' Public Roads question- about the most im portant one that can came up before the Legislature we, failed - to note that a bill has been ' introduced bj Mr. Jolmatcme Jonea, of Buncombe, I to establish a Pnblio Road Cbmmis sion. We- do not know what the 1 features of tho bill are but as it looks to doing a moat important and mucfcTneeded work "for North Caro- the beginning- of the session urged law and declared that the inanmhol could devise ' one would-deserve . tbw gratitude and honors of the people. . . We must again say that the Stab does not desire original verse. -Poets .born cannot afford to write without a "consideration,' and poets : nade cannot write verse that is as good as we can select from books,: magazines and other sources We have obliged some of onr friends when we did not consider that their productions "Were near enough kin to true .' poetry to take the measles or - whooping-cough if the latter had been so afflicted. . By the passage of the bill securing from the Texas Pacific j Railroad -the forfeiture of the lands granted by tbe-United States the public domain will be increased to .the, .extent of 15,00,0,000 acres of land',! Which, at $3 per acre, will fetch $45,000,000. This is an . important gain. . I he way tne Republicans have given . the public lands by 'tens of millions of acres was a shameful abuse of power and privilege. We said recently that we did not know a great author who did not vi olate grammar. As accomplished a critic, scholar and writer as William Hazlitt was, said this of the great sinners in letters: "me only im peccable' authors are those who never wrote." We could fill columns with errors to be found not in news papers but in the best works in lite rature. THE PERIODICALS.

Pending discussion the House adjourned. CURRENT COMMENT. Roswell Smith, the proprie tor of the Century y and President, though a layman, of the New Fork Congressional Club of Ministers, ex pressed himself very forcibly at a meeting of the club a few dava ago with regard to Mr. Ev arts' statement in his Union League Club speech that the South "remained in heart, sub stance and purpose" what it was in 1860. Mr. Smith declared, amid the cheers and laughter of his auditors, that "a man who has the audacity to stand up in the Union League Club and assert at this time that there has been no change in the sentiment of the South in the last twenty-five years lies under a mistake, to say the least of it." He added that he him' self was so disgusted with this utter ance of Mr.' Evarts that he rose and left the room on hearing it. Phil. Z'imes, Ind. Oregon, Illinois and New Hampshire are likely to have vacan cies in the Senate on the 4tj of March. The term of Senator Blair expires, and as the New Hampshire .Legislature does not meet until J une, the new Senator cannot be elected in time for the executive session. In the cases of Oregon and New Hampshire, where there will be no Legislatures in session when the vacancies occur on the 4th of March, the Governors of those . States will appoint, and under the ruling of the Senate in the dispute over the seat of benator Bell, of New Hampshire, in 1679, the"Senators so appointed will be admitted. Illinois will, however, present a different phase in her va canoy : in the Senate. The Illinois Legislature will be in session .when the vacahcy occurs, on the 4th of March, by the end of i General Lo gan's term, and the Governor cannot appoint to fill a Senatorial vacancy except when - it occurs "during the recess of the Legislature." Unless the Illinois Legislature 'shall elect a benator before or soon' after the 4th of March, or adjourn sine die before the end of the executive session, the Governor of that State cannot ap point: a Senator to take his seat at the coming speoial session of that body.

My little son, now seven year3 old, broke oti' when a babe three weeks with what the doctor called eczema, beginning on his heal and erad ally spreading over his whole bodv. He wai treated for five years or more by Vofiouanhvsi clans without relief , and the little boy's health was completely broken down. About a year aso I was induced to use on him swift's bpecifie and two bottles cured him sound and well, and there has been no sign of a return of the disease, Talbotton, Ga., Sept. 12, 1884. ' Q' H0LMES- Poisoned by a Nurse. Some eight years ago I was inoculated with poison by a nurse who infected my babe -with blood taint. The little child lingered along until it was about two years old when its little life was yielded up to the fearful poison. t,r six long years I have sufferel untold misery I was covered with sores and ulcers trom head to foot and in my great, extremity I prayed to die. Ko language can express my feelings of woe during those long six years. I had the best medical treatment. Several physicians successively treat ed me, but ail to no purpose. The MtrcurraDd Potash seemed to add f ael to the awful feme Which was devourinar me. A ho tit. three ago x was aa so. and f vised to try JfeliM. Swift's Spe eamit- cific. We did vlve in uss breast: but. alas ! alas ! we had spent so nmeti for medical treatment that we were too Doorti buy it Oh ! the agony of that moment ! Health and happiness within your reach, but too poor 10 grasp it. I applied, however, to those who were able and wilting to help me, and I have ta ken Swift's Specific, and am now sound and well once more. Swift's Specific is the best blood purifier in the world and the greatest blessing of the age. MRS. T. W LEU. Greenville, Ala., Sept. 4. A Druggist for 25 Years. Auburn, Ala., Sept. 8, 18S4 I am an old phar macist, and have had to do largely with blood diseases for oyer twenty-five years l have dealt In all kinds of blood purifiers, and do not hesi tate to say that Swift's Specific is the best and hat given more general satis'actkra than any oth er I have ever handled. Swift's Specific is an ex cellent tonic, and as an antidote for malaria has no superior Many ladies are using it as a tonic for general debility, and find it the most satis factory one ever used. I have been dealing in Swift's Specific for five years or more, and am satisfied that I do not place too high an estimate upon its merits. G. W. Dl XON. Prescribed by Physicians.
