A. negro ' from the. Feasterville section xwho went to Arkansas several months ago . has returiied ana is organizing ciuDsor 'emigrants to go to Arkansas. He informs : , ; the negroes that as soon as they reach Ar kansas they are presented with an absolute , title to 500 acres of land, a mule, and pro visions to run them for one year. All the : - ; property is exempt from taxation for five '.' years. The negroes are taking this yarn in " -with as much confidence as if the leader "was a new prophet arisen to lead them to a ; : newiland of promise. Winnsborough, 8. fp Ci JSewa and Herald. , ; The South Carolinians in 6ome sec tions have cleaned oat the so-called emigrant agents and forced them to . leave and to stand not on the order I ' of their going. It is a wonder that ' - the Feasterville people have not com - pelled this modern Munchausen to V gather his traps and be off. When r '7' a fellow enters a community and be- '. gins his work of lying and deception, : the purpose of which is to render laborers discontented and to allure ' them with false promises to break up r and go a thousand miles away to seek new homes tinder no better con ditions than those they have left, and, in many instances, under worse con ditions, then such a nefarious plotter ought to be dealt with. If he does notJike the Arab silently steal away C5 wBen-ordered to depart then a little ' : , :gentle coercion should be tried. fii Such visitors are public nuisances I-' - , and are a positivednjury to society ? C ; and to the industrial interests of com- ' ': munities. - Only yesterday the Stab published n account of one hundred negroes .being in Charlotte in a destitute con , dition. They were from the Launn burg section, and had paid their way ft- that far expecting to meet an agent ! .from Kansas who was to pay their ; way to .that distant State. They are without funds or provisions and are at once reduced to a. most helpless , -and pitiable condition. There are ' over two hundred more on the Caro- ;'lina ,Central Railroad awaiting the . coming of the wicked and lying : agents witn tneir highly colored de- C scriptions and false promises. Proba- v . bly as many as one thousand negroes . in that section have been induced to -. break up and either go or prepare to ; go to Arkansas ! and Kansas. A .real injury is done both to the ;. negro laborers and to those -who em- P?PJ. them. -.Suddenly labor becomes y scarce and many farmers are per- . plexed and do not know what to do about crops and farming generally. :&i Labor becomes disorganized and the country is impoverished.. ' Ought . such public enemies as these sly and N lying agents to be allowed to enter a community and begin sowing the seeds of discord and false promises? : Where is : the .remedy ? . Are com- jrttmritids powerless to protect them- 4 selves agamst public eneinies and is j - there no. redress? ' , - 1$ ' true people have a perfect v. right to pull up stakes and seek new homes in other States.. This is one thing,-hut for a parcel of lying ras cals to enter communities and begin to work upon "the prejudices of igno rant people, deceiving them by false hopes and making promises they cannot fill and alluring them into re mote Stdtes where many must suffer and perish, as has ' been the case in the past, is quite another and a most intolerable thing. : The colored people fare as well in North Carolina as they can fare any where in the South.. In Georgia there are hundreds of them who have become landed proprietors and are greatly prospering. The same thing exists in all of the Southern States, and North Carolina is no exception. Labor is the price of success every where. The colored people can only prosper by industry, sobriety and economy. If they are idle and spend all they make they will have nothing but a mere living. In North Caro lina their rights are as much respeoted as they are or will be in any of the States. Undisturbed by enemies who come among them to bamboozle and seduce they are a happy, con tented race. If the colored people desire to go hence Of their own will" then we are clearly of the opinion that no ob structions ought to be put in the way of theirdoing so. The South might secure other labor, but we believe that negro labor is desirable at pres ent, although farming in Mississippi shows that much greater results are secured from white labor than from negro labor. What the Stab dis likes and antagonizes are the means resorted to by unprincipled agents, who, like the fellow in the Feaster ville section, makes all sorts of ly ing promises, the only purpose of which is to deceive and, m the end, injure the too credulous victims. A STRONG POINT. The Secretary of the Treasury is an aggressive official with very posi tive opinions. He is showing con siderable ability, although his man agement is often sharply criticised by newspapers not in the interest of the gold bugs. We refer to his re port now to reproduce just one point he makes in connection with the present High Tariff that resta upon the energies and industrial interests of tire country like a mighty incu bus. We find the point thus stated in the New York Times, a Republi can paper: "The Secretary justly declares our tariff laws to be 'a legacy of war.' He describes their character concisely but with compre hensive clearness.- He points out that 'the highest endurable rates of duty which were adopted in 1862-4 to offset internal taxes upon almost every taxable article have in most cases been retained now from four teen to twenty years after every such inter nal tax has been repealed. The average ad valorem rate last year was over 46 per cent., but 2 per cent, less than the highest rate of the war period, and nearly 4 per cent. higher than before the revision of 1883. These rates have been retained while purely revenue rates upon articles not competing with anything produced in the United States have been discarded. Other rates have been maintained on materials for manufactures (in 1884 adding $30,000,000 to their cost) which cannot be exported without coming into competition with for eign manufactures of which the material is free. This is the situation in a nut shell." The Tariff in 1885 is but 2f per cent, less on an average than it was in the very heat and tempest of the war. A great shame and blunder ! The Secretary aims his shafts at silver coinage, and in that is in per fect accord with the President. He objects decidedly to its continuan ce and, light or wrong, believes that evils to the country will follow if coin age does not cease. He makes a very plausible argument for the suspen sion of the coinage of the silver dol lar. : Strange to say, he is not in favor of increasing the weight of the dollar. The main argument of the mono- metallists is the short weight, of the dollar. But this is not true as there was no change made in the weight of our silver dollar until 1837. In that year it was reduced from 416 grains to 412 grains. There were 3 grains of copper eliminated from each dollar, and that is the only debasement or clipping the dollar has ever received. The silver dollar is now worth 100 cents in silver. Mark that. If the coinage of the silver dollar is ever, resumed it may be important to consider the ques tlon of increase of weight. At pres ent a silver dollar has a purchasing power of : one dollar in gold, in spite of all conspiracies and combinations Secretary Manning says there are now 215,000,000 silver dollars coined, and he thinks that silver will drop to bullion value in trade .even if the coinage sfiould be continued. 8ECHETARY I ARIAS. - Secretary - .Lamar's report , is well spoken of, as an able and excellent paper. He favors the Indian schools and urges the continuance of the boarding schools in preference to day schools. "He shows himself to oe in -'I.'... .A . - full sympathy with those who have given the most attention to Indian affairs. He denounces the intrusion J of a bad class of white men like the J Oklahoma boomers Secretary La- . , , . . I mar deals with matters belonging to the Interior Department in a practi- J cal and business-like way that sho wb how mistaken were those newspaper who held him up to the country as a mere dreamer and student with- out working capacity. While the Stab ha not agreed with Mr. Lamar - . . I in all of his views it has long re- garded him as the most eloquent, as the most scholarly, as -the most ad- vanced, and as the most independent ,0 . ,- rrQ of Southern representative men. He makes an excellent Government offi- cial and has evidently given great con sideration to the duties of his respon- sible office. PARTI A la TRAVELLERS AND WIT NESSES. ' The Norfolk Landmark makes gome pertinent remarks on Canon Farrar's recent visit to the Northern States and his failure to visit any part of the South. It says, and it is worth copying: "Canon Farrar has been mercilessly in terviewed, but as he came to lecture for money we suppose he was looked on as fair game. He goes home filled with strong and agreeable impressions of his visit; and though he did not come into Virginia, we have no money here, he pronounced a fine ' farewell address, in which he spoke of Jefferson, Patrick Henry, and Washington as 'men who stamped their character on the people.' It will be observed that the three were Virginians, though the good Canon does not refer to the interesting fact." Thackeray and a few other Eng lish authors visited the South when they made their American tours, but as a general thin the South ;B o o avoiaea. we cannot say we care. The South has never been in favor with a larj?e educated class in En?- land, and Wans of lvrv. That cause has been removed, but the old prejudice, and, consequent ignorance continues. An English scholar, bent on making money, or in being feted, lands in New York, then rushes to lioston, and returning via New York next visits Phila delphia, and possibly Baltimore and Washington, and next 6tnkes off for Chicago and Cincin nati, thence back again to New York, and then good-bye and away he goes for England. His next per formance is a book or a series of ar ticles on American institutions and people, and without studying or see ing that great section which for sixty years, Charles Sumner said, had do minated the country and furnished ine statesmansnip up to the war. But when Thackeray writes an American novel he locates it in the South and makes George Washing ton a character. When Dr. Farrar lectures and points to the great men of the country he . names men of Southern birth. It is estimated that the expendi tures for the present fiscal year that ends the 30th of June, 1886, will be $290,750,000. The estimated re ceipts are $315,000,000 leaving a balance of $24,250,000. So here is a iQ r w.U: r, r. , uov" J1 uuiug oum ui uuue, ioo. are $339,589,552.34. So if the reve- nues should not be greater than thev promto be for the current vear (and there is no prospect of any in- crease,) then there would be a de ficit, instead of a surplus of $24,589,- 552. So advocates of the Paternal Pedagogy raid 'upon the Treasury need not be in a hurry to get rid of the surplus in that way. THE MESSAGE AMONG CON GRESSMEN.

Mr. Sam Randall has some thing to say in defense of the patent steam brake, which the Lower House of Qongresg, for -some inscrutable reason, invented to keep itself from going too fast. Of all the slow go ing old carryalls in the world, that this great lumbering wuinver-snaii of politics should conceive of a ne- cessitv to slow itself down is unmis takably a wonder of wonders; and that of all men in the world that it should be willing to intrust the brakes to Sam Randall 1 Randall, as everybody knows, : is a man to make the most of every public trust for rjrtvate advantage. Not in the line of pelf .is Mr. Randall, but he wants power, and is especially expert in magnifying the force and leverage of power, both for himself and his ma8Slv principle of power, which is I useful to him onlv because it can move things to his liking, is. there- fore weful in the line of pelf as well as position, the former for his friends and backers, and the latter for himself. While he does not seek it for the enrichment of self, he seeks it as a medium for rewarding his various cliques and supporters pelf for scores is what it meanB, in stead of pelf for one. Louisville Courier Journal, Dem. The Wilmington (N. C.) Stab calls John Sherman, recently elected President of the United States Senate, "a bad, open, wicked, able, aggressive, political slugger." It should have added that otherwise Sherman was a small potato white man generally, and could hardly flourish in any other sphere than the contracted one which gave him birth and stamped its indelible impress on him. Richmond State. There is no further doubt about it. Mr. Randall feels it to be his duty . to oppose any change in the House rules which will allow the House to make its appropriations in its own way. There can be but hf teen honest men in the House at one time, and if they are not fortified against the attacks of the 310 thieves there will be a deficit in the Treas ury.

WASHINGTON. Eacb Home of Congress Left to Con trol tbe Sale of Liquor In the Capi tol Building, s By Telegraph to the Morning' Star. Washington, Dec. 11. The Senate Committee on Rules held its first meeting this morning, and instructed Senator Frye, its chairman, to report back to the Senate the code of joint rules for the government of official intercourse between the two Houses. The code is identical with the joint code which the Senate acted upon two years ago, except in respect to rule 13, which the committee has stricken out. This rule prohibits the sale of intoxicating liquors in the Capitol building. The Sen ate has a rule of this kind in its own code, and tbe committee thought it unnecessary to incorporate it in the joint rules, believing the matter was one which should be left to the control of each House within its own domain.

The most intensely cold weather that has been experienced in five years, is now prevailing throughout .England. The Sunderland shipwrights have de cided not to accept the proposed reduction in wages, and a strike will probably ensue. ELECTRIC SPARKS. E. E.

To take her place at the bead of a family without a fair know ledge of this useful household art would be to disgrace her mother and herself in the eyes of all her acquaintances. The average young bride goes to a home of her own with a few practical ideas on a matter which will have to come before her thrice a day, and one in which tbe health and general prospe rity of herself and others most essentially depend. Then, if ever she acquires even a passable skill in cookery, it will doubtless be through much wasting and worrying, and manifold non-successes. Meantime dyspepsia, or other evil angel, is lurking in the shadow of her table. To the young wife and housekeeper so circumstanced half the terrors of the kitchen are at once removed by the introduction of the ever ready, always reliable. Royal Baking Pow der. With its proper use there can .never be failure in bread, biscuit, or cake, while the perfect healthf ulneas of the food pro duced is likewise so well assured that all who partake may defiantly snap their fingers in the face of old Dyspepsia. This point gained, the victory over inexperiences and bad luck in other things is speedily won. The Royal Baking Powder, on account of its superior powers as a leavening agent, the great facility with which it may be used, its proved economy, and its thoroughly established wholesomeness and purity as established by the tests of government chemists and others, has become the gene ral substitute for cream of tartar and soda in the making of nice, sweet, flaky, digesti ble bread, biscuit, etc. With, its use, the young mistress of the house may take a pardonable pride in the work of her hands.

A ' moderate business in spirits turpentine transpired late yesterday at 87ic, but to-day the mar ket was termed exceedingly quiet, with the above figure nominal. Options attract no attention, and quotations are entirely nom inal. Rosins quoted as heretofore, but to effect sales lower prices would have to be accepted. "That Miss Jones is a nice looking girl, isn't she?" 6 "Yes, and she'd be the belle of the town if it wasn't for one thing." Whafsthat?" ' 'She has catarrh so bad it is unpleasant to be near her. She has .tried a dozen things and nothing helps her. Iam sorry,-for I like her, but that doesn't make it less disa greeable for one to be around her.'.' Now if she had used Dr. Sage's Catarrh. Remedy, there would have been nothing of the kind said, for it will cure catarrh every time. ', J The Pamlico Enterprise ' STOSTSWALL.Xr.c.

I refer to the Carbonates of Potash and Lithia. It is now well known that both of these alkaline carbon ates have an ascertained value in cases of Add Diathesis connected with Gravel, and in cases of Chronic Gout, because of their affinity for vnc Acid, and the great Isolubllity of the salts wbicn are formed by their union with that acid.
