By WILLIAM U. BERNARD. WILMINGTON, N. C. Saturday Morning, May 30, 1891 THE TYPICAL AMERICAN. Hon. Chauncey M. Depew, in speaking of the South not very long ago, said that the tide of immi gration which had been pouring into the Northern States for half a centu ry or more, spreading in all direc tions, save Southward, had so blen ded the nationalities that the pure strain American blood was hard to find en the Northern side of the line, and when one looked for the typical American he had to come South to find him. Of course this remark was made in a general way as applying to States and communities and not to every individual, for Mr. Depew would hardly assert that there were absolutely no persons on that side of the line who could show a lineage without some foreign admixture. But he could with propriety say, what he doubtless meant to say, that the number of those who can was insig nificantly small compared with those who cannot. He meant more than this and was conveying the idea that while the manners, customs, methods and modes of thought have all been affected more or less by contact with alien-manners, customs, meth ods and modes of thought, in the South there has been none of this, that the Southern people are quite as much American in these as they were half a century ago, when no one questioned their unadulterated Americanism, This was not a discovery by Mr. Depew; it was what every intelligent person who knows anything about the South knows, but it was the re cognition and concession of a fact that many on the other side of the line, especially of Mr. Depew's school of anti-Southern politics, would not be disposed to concede. But it is a fact nevertheless, which very few even of our national states men and law-makers have duly pon dered upon, and to which in a great measure is due the South's dazzling courage, her willingness to do and to dare in the face of odds that would appal people of less nerve and dash in the defence of a principle, her self-poise in triumph and forti tude in adversity, her recuperative powers, her amazing vitality, her marvellous vim, with the bright spirit of hope and self-confidence, which never in the darkest hour de sert her. No other people on the face of the earth but the typical American could have done what the Southern people did from the day that six millions of them,i with no contingents to draw upon,; threw down the gauntlet in the defence of a principle, to eigh teen millions of nervy, brawny, brainy people, who had the world besides to draw from, until having passed through the fire, they stood amid the ruins overcome but not crushed, with not one jot of abate ment in the heroic spirit that made them famous in conflict, and that equanimity in defeat which command ed the admiration of the foe as their heroism in battle had done before. And that, typical Americanism is now engaged in laying the founda tions of the grandest and most irre sistible power on this continent, not a political power simply, for that is not what it is aiming at, but indus trial and commercial, when her genius, her perseverance and her pluck shall have established the varied and multitudinous industries which must come to fully utilize her natural resources, and her harbors are filled with the vessels of all na tions bearing the products of those industries to the markets of the world. The typical American of the South is at the front inlhe grand march of progress, and he has come not only to keep up with the proces sion but to lead it and to stay at the front. This is not only the opinion of Mr. Depew but of a good many other observant gentlemen on the other side of the line. MINOR MENTION. The cable dispatches from Eng land in reference to the Behring sea matter show that the President is running that business himself without the assistance of Secretary Blaine It seems that Lord Salisbury made a proposition to Mr. Blaine that the two Governments mutually agree to prohibit the catching of seals in the open sea for a stated period pending the controversy, a proposition which Mr. Blaine pocketed, it is said be cause its acceptance would interfere with the operations of his friend El kins and others who have bought the privilege of catching seals in the seal grounds. The first the Presi dent knew about this proposition he learned from the dispatches in the San Francisco papers on his arrival in that city, and he immediately tel egraphed Secretary Foster to revoke the order issued just before he left Washington authorizing the Elkins Company to "continue operations during the Summer. When this tel egram was received Secretary Blaine immediately started for New York to see his friend Elkins, and has been laid up there with the gout ever since. In the meantime the President after his return seems to have taken the matter into his own hands which will result, probably, in the agreement suggested by Lord Salisbury. Within the past few weeks we have seen several announcements in some of our State exchanges where some citizen had been informed that he or she was the heir to an immense estate in England or Germany, gen erally England, where there are a dozen or so of these estates which have been doing business for years, and there is rarely ever less than millions waiting for some one to come and get them. All the person so advised has to do is enclose a certain amount of cash to pay the lawyer for fixing up the papers and securing the big wad of money. When the fee is sent that's the last the heir ever hears of the estate. It is astonishing notwithstanding the numerous exposures that have been made of those frauds that they can still humbug so many people and that the sharpers always find some innocent ready to fall into their baited trap. They have got thousands upon thousands of dollars from simple minded people in this country, and no living man has yet seen any living American who ever got one dollar out of these mythical estates. The money isn't there and if it was the American "heirs" couldn't get it. Ex-Congressman Ewart, Repub lican of this State, seems to think the jig is up with the Repub lican party, and he says the Alliance is going to do it. While in Washing ton, a few days ago on his return from New York, he was interviewed on the situation and delivered him self thus: "If the Alliance places a ticket in the field next year, and it looks that way now, the Democrats will carry several Western States, In the South' every Alliance man is a Democrat, although every Democrat is not by any means an Alliance man, and in an election the Alliance men will vote the Democratic ticket every time. But in the West the Alliance men will vote the straight Alli ance ticket, and the result will be that the Democrats will gain what the Re publicans lose, and that would mean their election. The Alliance is going to prove a dangerous contestant to both parties in the future, and I am inclined to the opinion that they may carry one or two Western States. "While in New York I heard some quiet talk about Cleveland, and in my judgment he will be the next President. I don't see how they can beat him for the nomination. In the South, when ever his name is mentioned, the people shout themselves hoarse. I understand there is considerable opposition to him in New York, but I believe he can win without New York, and on a hard- monev Dlatform he can carrv New York If the Farmers' Alliance were out of the way, I would not hesitate to say that the . Republicans would win next year. but at the present outlook conditions are most favorable for Democratic: suc cess.' STATE TOPICS. Governor Holt has issued a pro clamation, as invited to do by the rear estate convention which assem bled in Raleigh recently, urging the people of the respective counties of the State and the county authorities to co-operate, with a view to secur ing a creditable collection of the products of their counties to form part of the State's exhibit at the World's Fair. He urges the im portance of this action by the citi zens, as the amount appropriated by the State is not sufficient to defray the expense of such a collection as would do the State justice, and also defray the expense of arranging and caring for the exhibit when on the grounds. It is to be hoped that there is public spirit and State pride enough in North Carolina to re spond promptly to the Governor's proclamation. CURRENT COMMENT. If they are truly represented the most of the 80,000 Alliance men in Virginia are Democrats, says the New York Tribune. To say that these Alliance men are white men is about equivalent to saying that they are Democrats, for the number of white Republicans in Virginia is small. So also it is in every South ern State. Richmond Dispatch, Dent. Before ex-Gov. Boyd of Neb braska, who has been ousted be cause he was not a naturalized citi zen, was elected governor he held various offices, county and municipal, and the question is raised as to the legality of papers, Sec, bearing his official signature and official acts done by him. His acts are probably valid as those of an officer de facto, but the Supreme Court may also take this question under advisement. Wash. Star Tnd. Inquiry among importers of and dealers in tin-plate in Boston, the result of which is presented in our news columns, effectually dis poses of the humbug which has been so assiduously circulated by Repub lican organs concerning the effect of the new tariff in the case of this ar ticle. The increase in importation of foreign tin-plate at this port has been enormous, aggregating 22,055,- 732 pounds, valued at 807,810, dur ing the seven months ending May 1, as against only 13,108,000 pounds, valued at $448,115 for the corres period a year ago. Boston Post, Dem WHERE P0KERTRULES. The Hot Springs tbe Most Thorough Qam- ?: bling Besort in America. Pittsburg Dispatch. Almost any man at the Hot Spings would rather hold four aces than be President. Some men come here for their health, to get cured of rheuma t;sm, to rest and change the subject; others come here to get away from snowstorms and climatic kicks, or from red liquor and the nicotine fiend, and others for no reason dis coverable except their ability to pay hotel bills. But there is hardly a man who does not play poker when he gets here. Some play it for their health. Some don't. Here and there some dear old fogies settle down in a corner for a game of whist, and in the evening the ladies heaven bless them! make whist an excuse for conversation. The quiet and harm less joys of cribbage, I own, I have tasted, and euchre, progressive and straight, is played in solemn state in the the big hotel parlors once a week or oftener. But when a man takes a deck of cards in sober earnesthere poker is the result. In the Arkansas Club, the principle gambling house here, faro, perhaps, is first favorite; but I understand that more money is lost and won eyen there at poker, and the roulette wheel can not whirl fast enough to keep pace with the "ante" of the national game. Nearly all the buildings in town are two stories high. The ground floor is a saloon or store, and the second floor a gambling shop of some sort. The architects have planned with an eye to poker. In nearly every second floor room in the business part of the city, often In daytime and al ways at night men are constantly shuffling and dealing cards. In all the hotels card playing is incessant. Poker is the game, nd the stakes vary with, the place and the player. You can find negro waiters who are content with 2-cent ante, and from there mount to the game without a limit, at which only a wealthy man can afford to lose. There are all sorts and sizes of gamblers here. The aristocrat who frequents Phil Daly's when he is east and can tell you curious tales of Monte Carlo or of Carlsbad in its palmy days; a dignified oldman,with gray hair and a piercing eye, and a grip like a vise, not a gambler in looks, but a professional paymester all the same, survives here still. He is not so often met here as he used to be, if the stories of the veterans be true. Emperor William will not go to his castle near Metz. Metz is said to be too dangerous a place for him now in consequence of the extreme irritation caused by the maintenance of the rigor ous passport measure. It is also report ed that his majesty has received several threatening letters from different parts of Alsace-Lorraine, A THIEVING FOWL. Disoovery of a Valuable Diamond in the Craw of a Quiet Old Hen. St. . Paul Globe. Some time,, ago (he household of a gentlernan well knpwjf in' ;:cojrimer- cial circles of Gravenhurst, Ont was very much upset by the loss of a valuable diamond ring belonging to a guest a lady from New York C 1 . r - suspicion at once ien on a ser vant, who was employed as house maid, but upon her continued and earnest denial of the theft she was retained, as the gentleman, from i sense-of justice, did not wish to dis charge her on mere suspicion. A few days after the ring disappeared, it was found under the lady s win dow, with the solitary stone, how ever, missing, having been pried out of the setting. It was supposed that the thief had removed the diamond to keep v from being identified. The mys tery was solved, however, recently, in a most unexpected manneY, for in cleaning a chicken for dinner the cook discovered a small round ob ject in the craw, which, on being cleaned, was found to be the mis sing diamond The supposition now is that the ring fell from the lady s hand while she was in bed, and the clothes be ing shaken next .morning, it fel from them into the yard, where it was found by the hen, which, peck ing the stone from the setting, swal lowed it SAVED BY A MOUSE. The Remarkable Presence of Wit of a Louisville Girl. A young society man, who moves in the younger circles, told the town talker of the Louisville Commercial something out of the usual run the other day. He said that he attempt ed to kiss a pretty girl, and just as he got his arm around her slender waist and was about to kiss her she said that if he dared she would scream. iNot wisnmg to have a scene wheih such an action would cause, he withdrew his arm and resumed his seat at the fother end "of J the sofa. "Oh, I thought you were a braver man than that, she said. She, however, obstinately refused to let him kiss her, but she liekwise threatened to scream if he should attempt it. He thought he would profit by his former experience, and paid no at tention to the warning. He kissed her she screamed. Her'mother came in and demanded an explanation. The girl came to his rescue, how ever, and said a mouse was in the room, and she had screamed as it ran across the floor. Furthermore, by saying that the young man had gallantly tried to catch the mouse, she explained his blushes to the mother s satisfaction TESTING A TRUNK. A Pale-faced Man Who Had Not Lost tho.Orip of His Old Trade. New York World. A slim-faced man with a grave yard cough was inspecting some trunks in 'front of a Grand street store yesterday, when the proprietor of the place appeared and asked: "Looking for a trunk, sir?" "Yes." "Here's the best $4 trunk ever made, and I m the only that sells em at less than $5," "No good," replied the pale-faced man with a sorrowful shake of his head." One of these trunks wouldn't stand the journey from here to Poughkeepsie." "What! I'll warrant 'em to go around the world! Take hold of one and bang it about and convince yourself." "Do you give me leave to wrassle with one?" "Of course I do! Take right hold." The man with the graveyard cough drew in a full breath, called out: "Sche-neck-ta-day," as if warning a car-load of passengers, and then reached for the trunk. "Rip!" went one of the handles "r-i-p!" went the other, and as he stood it on end and upset it and flopped it back again one hinge busted loose and the cover split in two. With a twist of the wrist he gave it a slam-bang, which completed the wreck, and, with a bow to the trunk-man, he joined the crowd and disappeared. "Upon my sonl!" gasped the pro prietor as he viewed the ruins, "but I made a big mistake in him! He's a baggage master instead of a dying traveller. FATHER OF ALL DAMS. A Mighty Work of Concrete in South Australia. What is said to be the largest dam in the world nas just Deen com pleted for the South Australian Government at Beetaloo. It is a concrete dam, and in its construction about 60,000 cubic yards of cement concrete were re quired. It is 580 feet m lenght, 14 feet in width at the top and 110 feet high. The stone and sand used in its construction were obtained in the neighborhood of the dam, but the cement had to be imported from Europe, machinery being employed to mix and deposit the whole of the concrete The capacity of the reservoir made by this huge piece of engineering skill is 800,000,000 gallons, the ex pense of the work being $2,480,000, of which amount $585,000 was spent in the construction of the dam. PERSONAL. The late Gen. Crook was known among ; the Indians as "the whittling medicine man." Cyrus Small, superintendent of the Boston police, has just entered upon the fortieth year of his service in that department. . There is probably no better imitator on the American stage than Harry Gilfoil traveling with Hoyt's "A Trip to Chinatown" Company. Mrs. Potter Palmer, President of the World's Fair lady managers, who sailed for Europe with her husband last week, is one of Chicago's handsomest women. , Baron Hirsch is an Austrian by birth, but is best known in France. The foundation of his fortune was laid as a railway contractor with the Turkish government. When the Scotch-Irish Con gress opened in Louisville, Ky., the other day, there were on the platform eleven college professors, five editors, four supreme court judges, fifteen dis tinguished divines and no end of great bankers and merchants. Ouida is growing old and her works of late lack much of the eloquence that used to make them so attractive. She never was a beauty, though in her prime she possessed her striking points her "amber hair," of precisely the shade which she used to describe in her earliest novels, a pair of exquisite little feet. Wilbur W. Smith, a Connecticut veteran, now postmaster of Seymour, in that State, has just recovered the sword that he lost at Chancel lor sville in 1863. where he was captured. He was a lieu tenant in the Twentieth Connecticut reeiment and was sent to Libby prison. Now, after the lapse of twenty-eight years, his sword has been returned to him through the kindness of T. M. Cas erly, Warrenton, N. C, who accidentally discovered it in possession of one of the ofheers of the Warrenton Guards. POLITICAL POINTS. The failure of Mr. Blaine's mind is far less pronounced than the friends of certain ambitious persons may be supposed to wish. N. Y. World. Dem. Politicians who predict that the immediate dissolution of the third party should join the weather bureau force, where any sort of a prediction goes. Wash. Star, Ind. secretary .Blaine is to be con gratulated. His indorsement for Presi dent in 1892 by the New York Herald turns out to be nothing more than soap advertisement after all. Chicago Mail, Ind. Senator Colquitt is in New York, calling on Senator Hill, and feel ing the public pulse up and down the Hudson river. Senator Colquitt is do ing some political missionary work on his own account. Whether Governor Hill has read Senator Colquitt's letter on silver, is not stated. Possibly the Georgia senator is showing the beauties of free silver to the Sage of Elmira in an attractive way. It was noted that Senator Colquitt did not call on Mr Cleveland. Augusta Chronicle, Dem. Advice to notben.

An Awful Sore Limb. Flesh a Mass of Disease. Condi Hon Hopelcs. Cured by tbe Cutl- cura -Remedies. For three years I was almost crippled with an awfu sore leg,from my knee down to my ankle; ihe skin was entirely gone, and the flesh was one mass of disease Some physicians pronounced it incurable. It had di minished abcat one third the size of the other, and I was in a hopeless condition. After trying all kinds of remedies and spending hundreds of dollars, from which I got no relief whatever, I was persuaded' to try your Cuticura Remedies, and the result was as lol lews: After three days I noticed a decided chan; for the better, and at the end of two months I was completely cured. My flesh was purified, and'ihr bone (which had been exposed for over a year) got sound. The flesh began to grow, and to-day, and lor nearly two years, my leg is as well as tver it was, sound in every respect, and not a sign of disease to be seen. Rev. S. G. AHEKN, Dubois, Dodge Co , Ga. Bad Eczema Cured- The Cuticura Remedies wrought a wonderful cure on me. I was troubled greatly with a severe case of eczema, and after receiving little or no benefit from the treatment of some of the leading specialists here, I procured a set of them and before they w ere all used the disease had left me.
