The Morning Star. By T7IXLIA32: Q. BERN ASS WILMINGTON, N. C. Satubday Mobnins, Dec. 8, 1888, causes of discontent -among the french. It begins to look that Gen. Boul ans;er will be able to draw around him such a following in France that he will very greatly endanger the safety, if he does not completely overthrow the present Government, and with it the present form of Government. It is held by many that Boalanger possesses some of the qualities of a born leader and revolutionist. He is brave, daring practical, say his admirers. He is supported more or less by several classes of recalcitrants. In the ranks of his followers are clerics, monarch ical, men of commerce, royalists and Bonapartists. There are several causes that com bined to give an impetus to the plans and hopes of Boulanger. It is said that religious persecutions have much, to do with the growing unpop ularity of the Republic, 80-called. Then the increase in the national debt is another caase of complaint and dissatisfaction. The increase in the public debt is estimated by many millions and persons who have in vested in Government securities are feeling uneasy over the outlook. Then there is a conviction that there is much corruption among high Gov ernment officials. Some of the expo sures thus far made are not reassur ing. One editor has openly charged that of 36 members composing the Budget (a finance committee, we sup pose,) 22 are known to be "prevarica tors, robbers and thieves." All this looks bad for the French Republic. If true as stated then unless they can "turn the rascals out" and put in men I of probity and capacity and who are I true Republicans, the safety of the nepuoiio is indeed greatly endan- I - gered. It does not require a great I deal to get up a revolution in France. I and one may not be far ahead. Many who observe the trend of French affairs are looking for a triumph of Boulanger and his supporters. TBB SUBPZ.CS. The country is still cursed with a great surplus. The danger lurking in it is very real, xou can see something of it in the publio prints that favor the infamous Blair bill because of the necessity of spending this surplus. That is precisely the piea of the most extreme advocates -. of comet-like appropriations for all son or wild and foolish schemes. It is estimated that on 1st Sept.. 1888, ; inere was- a surplus in the Treasury of not less than $96,000,- WW. it IS lQ9EDi U8V DT 1st . ann. arJ 'f Wf mere, wui De at least 5,000,000n surplus in the Treas - "Mwsr - xn one more year an- VMiW t wmdred ; millions will have . .u muuoua. wm uave cumulated, making - the surplus 1st.

Suppose the present wilfully u ab surd and ruinous system of taxation snail continue for twenty years longer, what would be the result ? Such a sum would be wantonly, ras cally seized from the people under the forms of a bad law so as to make them poor and create such a mass of ; money as no Government on . earth ever owned. It would take the . oirr? culation of all nations to furnish the. money. The New York Times o the 5th inst. says: "At this rate the surplus will be sufficient by July. 1890, to pay, principal and in tercet, the 4 per cent, bonds not Que uu September, 1891. By 1900 it will : bo suf ficient to pay, principal and interest, the 4 per cent, bonds not due till "1907. la the meantime the stupid process of buying bonds to get rid of the fruit of seedless taxation muBt become more and more diffi cult." A DANGEROUS BILL. The Blair bill will pass we suppose, The Stab has done what it could for many years to enlighten its readers relative to this bad, undemocratic, unconstitutional measure. If we could be caucrht sunDortins it we a sw m would never again call ourselves Democratic. It is the most mischiev ous, demoralizing, sly, wicked bil that has been before the Congress since the war. It is far reacbjDgn results and those, who favor it upon any plea will see the day, if they survive for ten years, when they will be ready to curse the folly that led them to espouse so vioious a cause. It is useless to go into the arguments afresh. . It is a mischievous Repub lican scheme and we are amazed that, any Democrats are caught by its glare. While railing out at the aw ful and grasping power of money in the North, some Southern people seem quite willing to take all they can get from the U. S. Treasury under any and every plea. The ne gro in the South might remain as ig norant as the wildest savage in equa torial Africa, and then we would never support a measure that has no warrant in precedents or the Consti tution or reason. A letter from the poet Tennyson of the date of 7th May, 1874, gives a ouriou9 revelation of himself. He says he has what he calls "walking trances," in which his individuality fades away. He says he has had them from boyhood. His descrip tion reads : ' This has often come upon me through repeating my own name to nryself, silently, till all at once, as it were, omt of the inten sity of the consciousness of individuality the indmdua ity itself seemed to dissolve and fade away into boundless being: and this was not a confused state; but the clear est of the clearest, the surest of the surest, utterly beyond words, where death was almost a laughable impossibility, the loss of personality (If so it were) seemiDgno ex - tincuon, but the only true life, This is a very singular manifesta tion or hallucination. It may be the latter. An account says of the great poet's revelation: "This is not a vulgar table-tipping spir itualism. It is the most emphatic declara tion that the spirit of the writer is capable of transferring itself into another existence is not only real, clear, sample, but that it is also infinite in vision and eternal in du ration. For he continues that when he comes bach to "sanity" he is "ready to fight for the truth" of his experience, and that be holds it the spirit, whose separate existence he thus repeatedlv tests "will last for aeons and aeons." There are some stanzas in that great elegiao poem perhaps the geatest in all literature "In Memo- riam," beginning, ''And in the house light after light," and ending with tne mows or aeatn, tnat are thought to be the poets description of his "trances." Our good friend of- the Pittsboro Record thinks it would be hazardous to have a direct vote for the Presi dency because it would "occasion de lay in learning the result" of an elec tion. It says: "A national election works up tbe whole people to a state of intense interest, not tot say excitement. . It is proper that this strain should be relieved as soon as possioiejoy announcing results." : ; I We do not think there is much I force in this objection. In old times I the States did. not all vote on the I same day. It toot weeks to hear the I result, and yet no jar was given to I the machinery of government, no dis I orders followed, add the people were I as happy and contented as now.

The mortgages on. farms in Ohio, it is said, amount to more than 4700,000,000. and are gradually increasing, and this, too. in an old, well-developed, rich farming country.

Where, under- the former, practice, a levy was made on land by a deputy of the sheriff, and; upon the issuing of the ven. ex., the sheriff sold tbe land. and tbe. deputy who made the; levy bought, the sale is hot obnox ious to the -objection that the sheriff bought at his own ale and is valid. If there was collusion and fraud, the defendant in execution had a remedy, but the sale was not per se void. Although the statute required that the levy should be made known to the defendant in execution, yet an omission to do that, was only an in regularity and did not invalidate the . sale. Tbe purchaser was "not affected by the irregularity. Brown vs, Brown. The statutes of 1778 and 1783 forbidding entries to be made of lands within the limits prescribed for the Indian hunting grounds, and declaring all entries and grants of such lands void, were not repealed by the treaty of Uolston, made in 1791 by tbe United States with the Cherokee Indians, by which the title of the Indians to their lands was ex " tingaished. Tbe case of S trot her ve. Cotbey, Murphey 162, holding that the treaty had repealed tbe statute, was overrnled in Avery vs. Stro ther, Conference. Reports 434, which case is followed. So muob of a grant as is embraced in the inhibited limits is void. Jennings vs. Reeves. In an aotion to recover possession of land the plaintiff may rely on a deed that had been destroyed by the defendant and that has not been reg istered, and may prove by parol the execution and destruction of said deed; and the court on proper proof may declare the defendant a trustee for. plaintiff and compel a conveyance of the legal title. Iq the same aclion the plaintiff may unite a demand for the execu tion of a deed and for possession. The registration law does not. apply to exclude evidence of a: deed that being destroyed cannot be registered. Reeves vs. McMillan. - Expenditures made by an adminis trator to secure- lands for the benefit of the intestate's heirs are not in the due course of administration, and are a misappropriation of trust -funds, and will not be allowed him in his ac counts. Section 1,413 of the Code authorizing the renting of the real estate by nthe administrator is con strued to mean leasehold interests. Taxes coming due after the death of the intestate are to be paid by the heir. State vs. Lawson. Where no restriction upon the au thority of a tenant is shown, a per son who by that tenant's invitation comes Apon the premises for a lawful purpose, althongb baving been for bidden to do so by the landlord, is not-guilty of . trespass under section 1,120 Code.
