" - . ; A RECORD-LET DEMOCRATS CON ""' SIDER. y Randall packed the Committee on Ways and Means when Speaker, thus giving the control to the Protection ists. Randall voted with the Republi cans in the last Congress for the poor abortion of a Tariff now foisted. upon the country. . v i Randall is the favorite of neaHy the: whole Republican press of ;,the North for Speaker. ' . c -'Xf ' Randall is the choice of the South ern Democratic papers favoring Pro tection! y-'-y.:.- Randall is the choice of Pennsyl vanian Protectionists, Republican " and Democrats. He is so much in favor with the Republicans of his State that when they gerrymandered Pennsylvania they purposely con . structed a District for Randall. Such is his record such are the facts as we understand them. Each voter can estimate to suit himself the character of Randall from such a re cord. The whole thing is simplified and reduced to this: If the Demo1 crats are satisfied with the Republi can High Tariff then they ought to elect Randall, who is a Protection ist, and who helped to fasten the said Republican Tariff upon the country.. If they are not satisfied with, the present Republican High Tariff, but sincerely believe in reform and re ductionare genuinely and earnestly hostile to a high tax on the laboring classes of the country for the benefit of the rich monopolists and pluto crats, then Randall ought not to be and will not be their choice for Speaker. . PKOOBES8 t In New York the colored voters vigauiivu luuepeuueiiii par ty. iiiey sav mev are tired ot th Bossesrj" It promises to be popular among j their class. In two of the Wards they are numerous and could easily hold the balance of power. They are going to. demand represen tation in the State Republican' Con vention. It seems that in soro6 sec tions in the North the negro has full sway. The Waterbury (Connecticut) American says: . . " "At Des Moines, Iowa, . in the leading hotel, colored porters on the Pullman cars can eat; their meals in the same ; dining room with the guests, including the Gov, erDor of lhe State and cultivated ladies aqd gentlemen, and not a remark in the way of protest be heard." - : - -. - The next thing miscegenation will be as common in tbat region as di vorces are in Illinois, Ohio and Con necticut. But in other; sections the 'colored man and , brother?' cannot go to the best hotels and eat with the whites. . '.This - was - tried at LonV frnnh r0ii; i urancb recently and failed as it ought to have done. The colored folks had to take themselves off to a colored boarding house. In Wasb- ington a colored; preacher was re fused a meal at a fest.anar, v.. '- -""u. . UTCU in Chicago seVeral negro preachers attending a Baptist Association were xef used meals at a restaurant. Some white preachers were with them and were anxious to eat witli them. There has been progress iq the wrong direction since jsisnop sn .juaveu, Boston, sat up all night? feigning toothache rather ' than j "bunt it" with a "colored brother who had that curious compound of odors not put down in the book of sweets. We have not seen f a copy of the North Carolina Roster jut one - of tint -staff has. and he tells that he finds himself in firee regiments. He a: a i ,11 tJirm during the UiU 1 ucivn ; w w o - war, and he is boo three times. i ... ' .- . V If this is the way t ster is made tand how. OUl it easy w uuv. North Carolina is credited , with so many soldiers. Of course we do not know how many such errors, if any, have occurred, but the presumption is that there are many such. - We do not suppose Maj. Moore ,is to blame. He must followcopy. Jind it would j be impossible for him to avoid sucb errorsr But ; this could f be done to eliminate errors; Let a copy be sub mitted to an intelligent Bold ier in every command and let all errors be noted as far as possible!;. ; . , - " -Hickory Carolinian, ...edited w a lawyer: has shown itself a good frtnitA rf this nanfir. ' We aimreciate w. r-r- r, , hiffhly his kind words,; and we are glad that a gentleman of so much' in- elligence agree8 with u8 1 qaestions 0f political economy. After noticing OUT proposed enlargement of -the Weekly Stak, it says in its last is- sue: . ; - - . "The Star is one of the best papers in North Carolina, and its views of State pol-. iev are verv erenerall v endorsed by its con temporaries and the great masses of the reading public May it live long and pros per in maintaining and defending the peo ple's rights and interests." - ; - The Stab proposes to pursue a common- ' sense . course of . common fairness and common justice to ad yocate taxing luxuries like whiskey: and tobacco and putting common ne cessaries on the free list- i ; It is a gross reflection iipon Korth ,t Carolina Democrats to insinuate that as a class tney are no more sincerely . . - . j - .1 in favor of Tariff Reform than Ran dall is. We do not know how .many Democrats favor Randall, in North Carolina,' but in every hun: dred of intelligent ones we do not believe there are five. .Randall wilt do first-rate for High f Protection Democrats. But Jerry Black said said there was no such thingthat a man favoring High Protection was not a Democrat. At any rate, he would not have been recognized as such before 1861. . - The following item clipped from the Savannah News may! contain in formation of value to some of the s - - . . t readers of the Stab: v "The sixty acre cotton field of Col. Fur man.in Baldwin county, which has been re ported as likely to yield 100 bales, was at tacked by caterpillars last week, but it is said ihat he promptly checked and destroy ed them by sprinkling the cotton with a mixture of one pound of Paris green to forty gallons of water." We notice that Miss M. R. Good loe, an accomplished and highly edu cated young lady, "of this State, is to take charge of the Oak Hill Semina ry at Asheville. She is the niece of Daniel R. Goodloe, one of the best journalists North Carolina has pro duced. Miss Goodloe is " at present visiting the schools : of Boston and vicinity.

Judge Black left an estate worth $200,000. That is not much, con sidering the big fees he - is credited with having received. Oysters from Myrtle Grove Sound. - ' Ah act to prohibit the taking of oysters, in r Myrtle , Grove Sound during ,;' certain months, was passed at the. last session . of the General Assembly and reads as, follows: Sec. 1, . That it shall be unlawfti for any person to take or catch any oysters from Myrtle Grove Sound from Perrine's Whitaker's creek to the headwaters of said Sound, in New Hanover county, from ' the first day of May until the first day of September; provided that this act shall not apply to persons taking . oysters for their Own consumption J r v . .: j - ; I Sec. 2. .That any.' person violalinsr the provisions of this act shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon conviction, shall be fined not more than fiftv Hnllnro nr shall be fined not more than fifty dollars or 4inpnsoueu not more man twenty days, r Ratified the 12th day of March. 1883. A gentleman from what was formerl knowW tM Leesburg (now Wil- Mara) 8ection or render, informed us that there, was a heavy rjain in that Dart of the,.! county oa Tuesday afternoon. i , Mr. Oliver H.-.

We had the pleasure of meeting, yester day,-our friend John D. Williams, Esqr., wbo h- Gloving the attractions' of Masonboro Sound with his brother. Mr. G. W. .Williams, for several days past. " Besides beingtmtfof the mos1 prominent business men of Fayetteville, Mr. Williams is a leading and influential member ' of the Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley Railroad Syndicate; and it goes almost, without 'say ing that the STAa.scribo wa& soon plyi ng him : with questions r- asto : the plana - and. prospects of that body. ' Mr. Williams spoke most .hopefully and, enthusiastically - of the enterprise in which his edeigies seem to be so thoroughly , en- listed He says thar extension from Fay etteville southward via Shoe fleel' will be built, and' we join ' him. in the hone tliat this connection wiH add materially- to the prosperity of Fayetteville that good old town for which' we' cherish' the warmest affection, and which really seems about to . . ....... begin a new career of commercial progress. But the feature of Mr. Williams' conver sation with this reporter which -will prove of most interest to a majority of the read- ers of the Star was in regard to a direct rail connection between Fayetteville and Wilmington, - Mr. - Williams heartily fa vors this connection, and we - are 'glad to make the announcement, as it agrees with," the views of the Star, several times ex pressed. v Mr Williams' suggestion is that this extension cross the Cape Fear river just above the Clarendon Bridge, at Fay etteville, and run down,' on the east side of the river, by the shortest practicable 'route to WilmingtonT-The distance by this route, Mi Williams thinks, will probably not ex ceed 75 miles. ' -: ' V This is a matter of prime importance to thq people of Wilmington, and they should jom hands and purses with the' managers of the CapeFear and 'Yadkin Valley sysi teip in making -the proposed connection a certainty. This link completed, a through connection with the "Great West follows as a matter of course. 1 f The commercial possibilities of Wil mington with the completion of this grand through line are immense.-1 It "would -line our wharves with shipping, ; build up extensive-iron works; as well as other manu facturing- enterprises," and double; the wholesale trade of our city within two years.

Oyster Trade. ( The faet thai this is a month with an "r . . . r ....... -. ia;u reminds us what a fine business might. be done in the article of oysters along pur immediate coast if only a proper system ofJ .cultivation could be resorted to, and men of vim and energy and capital could ba in duced to go into the oyster trade. . All that is wanted to make the waters on our North Cirolina coast fairly teem with the delicious bivalves is for the right men to take the matter in hand. There is no reason why fortunes cannot be made here on oysters as well as elsewhere. An exchange, alluding to the production of the article on the Con necticut shore, says the present is, eoing.to be the greatest year .ever known for the pro duction of young oysters in that section, and adds;. "The - shells that were planted a month ago are found to be already thickly covered with 'spat.' One firm alone, spent $17,000 for oyster-shells, at seven cents a bushel, and will make a fortune out of the venture. In two years these young oysters" will be large enough for transplanting, and they will then be worth half a dollar or more per bushel. In three, four and five years they will be ready for market, at $1 to $1.25 per bushel. 5 There are many hun dreds of ; acres;; of oyster-beds , along the shore, and many hundreds more will be added." , - I : Naval Store for the, : i lion. -; .- '.'
