W .should be nntrue to what we believe o oe the best interests of the State, if we failed to call attention to the necessity of placiag before' the peo ple a candidate best . calculated to win a fight upon which so much de pends.. It is idle to deny that the contest in North Carolina will be serious and if we have not a proper leader, doubtful. We have said it before and we say it again, that we should be ready to give up all the aspirations of the Cape Fear section so utterly neglected and passed by, consent, though with great reluct ance, to see a man struck down as a sacrifice who deserves so muoh from his party, if that party's necessities demanded it. But we can never re main eilent and see him beaten for a nomination to which he is faily enti tled and upon which in our opinion so much , depends, without calling at tention, to his absolute availability and the elements of strength he pos sesses. ; We believe Lt. Gov. Sted man to be by far the most available oandidate ' for Governor who oan be brought before the people of the State. ' We challenge investigation both as to his private and political life. His reoord is spotless. He has no expiations j to make either to friend or to foe no defensive war fare to wage; but from the beginning to the ending of the campaign he will, if nominated, ever" be found carrying our flag to the front and neither asking nor giving political quarter. We call upon every white man in the State who loves our great party to point out one single ele ment of weakness in his candidacy, and we pause for a reply. He has never been connected with any isms or side issues, but stands forth un trammelled as the exponent of the pure political faith of our fathers. A soldier with a stainless record from Bethel to Appomattox, no words but those of love and devoted affection have ever been heard ; from him for the memory of bis dead comrades who fell so gloriously in the great struggle, and whenever you find, a Confederate Boldier with a sleeveless arm or a mangled body and politics is mentioned, his eyes will brighten and his speech quicken as nine times, out of ten he will say, "I am for Stedman forever I" j i Asa public ! debater he has few equals within the limits of the entire State, and both by nature, education and experience is eminently qualified to conduct the canvass which is soon to commence, j As a political organ izer be stands confessedly without a peer in North Carolina. When you talk of great services rendered to the party, who of all our public men has done so' much and received so little ? For nearly twenty years he has been conspicuous in every political fight waged in this part of the State. Nominated for the office of Lieu tenant Governor, one without profit in any way, he made a campaign which will long be remembered in the annals of our party. When he has been struck down not one word of complaint has ever fallen from his lips. The tempter has never entered his heart. I The enemy has never dared to whisper treason (into his ear and even those who -differed with him; bear glad tes timony to his heroic fortitude and his sublime faith in the principles of the Democratic Party, in the line of promotion; from a seotion ignored for half a century, I with a. record wonderful for its purity, his nomina tion almost a necessity, shall such a man be sacrificed uselessly and with out cause? We appeal to the Demo crats of the great West to see that he has fair play. Of all the public men in Eastern Carolina he has been your most pronounced, bold and open friend, ever demanding and insisting that the whole Internal Revenue sys tem should be abolished. In this mat ter he has never counted the cost but has defied all opposition and demand ed it as a matter of justice to tbe peo ple of Western North Carolina. To the magnanimity and generosity of the people of that section, we present his unbroken record of friendship in their behalf. We rejoice to believe that the nomination of Lt. Gov. Stedman can be prevented by no trade or combination. Ascandidate after candidate has been named, his friends have still made good the fight, their strength unshattered and their columns unbroken. The victory is already well nigh won and we call upon the Democrats in every county in the State not to throw it away by indifference or neglect. Common justice, the necessities of the situa tion and the welfare of our party and the State alike demand the nomination of Stedman. Lt. Gov. Charles M. OHIO DEMOCRATS.

At 3 o'clock the Animal Industry bill was laid before the Senate as "unfinished busi ness," and then the presiding officer (pre sumably under an order agreed upon in ex ecutive session last Thursday,) ordered the galleries to be cleared; and the Senate pro ceeded to the consideration of executive business. The doors were reopened at 5 o'clock, when, without resuming legisla tive business, the Senate adjourned. . HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Mr. Mills, of Texas, from the Committee on Rules, "reported, and the House adopted without discussion or division, a resolution providing that general debate on the tariff bill shall cease on Saturday next. Under the call of States a number of bills were introduced and referred. The House then went into Committee of the Whole, (Mr. Springer in the chair), on tha tariff bill, and was addressed by Mr. Hatch, of Missouri. ; - Mr. Hatch said he was opposed to the present system of protection, and he re gretted that the pending bill preserved even a single feature of that system. The measure was simply a proposition of modifi cation and reduction. It did not touch the principle involved in the Morrill tariff act. He wished that there was a bill before the House based on a principle of equality and fairness broader and deeper than was involved in the pending proposition: but the principles of protection were fastened on the country and all that could be hoped for to-day, and all that the bill Bought to accomplish, was a reduction of the amount of taxation collected by tbe Government and put into the treasury. If the Mills bill was not passed by this Congress, the voice of the people, sweeping throughout the length and breadth of the land, would place a membership in the 51st Congress that would take the protective system, and in stead of reducing it, as was now proposed, would bring it down to a point where it would do exact justice to all interests of the country. ' He believed that there was a fair chance of the House passing the mod erate and conservative measure now pending. He believed that when the final vote was reached every Demo crat wouid be found in favor of the Mil. For! 1800 years the Christian religion had received its strongest hope from the grand declaration of Paul, when he said, "Every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess the? divinity of the Saviour, the fundamental truth of the Christian religion." As a Democrat, be lieving in the power of Democratic princi ples to relieve the people from oppression,' he rejoiced with exceeding great joy that the time was coming, and coming quickly, coming with the bright days of June, when every Democratic knee should and would bow to the overwhelming majority . of the Democratic party, and every Democratic tongue would confess to revenue reform as the fundamental principle of the Demo cratic party.) f Applause. . Mr. Syms. of Colorado, said it was only the bourbonism of a free trader or the angle mania of a college professor or mugwump, that would countenance the adoption by this country I of i a policy which governed an island which might be laid down in one of our States. Free trade in Great Britain had irfjured England and Ireland and benefitted their continental neighbors. He argued that it was the capitalist, monopolist and importing merchant.and those who derived their income from bonds and other invest ments, who were clamoring for free trade: that it was the employer, working man' and those who built up the industries of the country, who demanded a protective tariff. '. I i : Mr. Funston, of Kansas, declared him pelf for American interests as against the balance of the world. He was therefore a protectionist in the fullest sense of the word. i ; ii Mr. O'Neill, of Indiana, as a protection ist, and he claimed to be one, was willing to make the tariff high enough to enable manufacturers of an article which could be produced in the United States, to com pete with a foreign manufacturer; as a free trader, and he claimed to be one, he was opposed to having the tariff placed any higher than that. He argued In favor of putting lumber, coal and iron ore on the free list, because he believed that in these products the United States could compete with the world without there being any tariff upon them. Mr. Sherman,! of New York, said that the merits of the bill, (if merits it had), and its demerits, i (and its demerits were many,) were so well demonstrated that it was not necessary for him to point them out. He only wished to present a petition from hundreds of; people in his district protest ing against the passage of this most un wisest, uncalled-for measure. ' Mr. Cowles, of. North Carolina, said that a revision of the tariff by reducing the duty on imported goods to a revenue basis would increase importations and produce all the revenue which the Government required; and that the odious internal revenue law should be repealed. He was in favor of a tariff for revenue only, and revenue by tariff only, i i The committee then rose. On motion of Mr. Simmons, of North Carolina, a bill was passed appropriating $20,000 for the construction of a road from New Bern, Nl C, to the National Cemetery near that place. I Adjourned.

Read twice, and referred to the Committee on Privileges and Elections. It will probably not come up again until next session. ; House bills appropriating $100,000 for a public building at Columbus, Georgia, and. increasing ine limit oi cost lor a pumic building at Charleston, S. C, to $300,000, were taken from I the calendar and passed. Thebi)l to limit the hours of letter carriers (Houee bill) was taken up and pissed without discussion or division. It provides that hereafter eight hours shall constitute a ' day's work for letter carriers in cities or postal districts connected there with, and allows them extra pay for over time." I i i The Senate bill for relief of the Albe marle and Chesapeake Canal Co. was taken from the calendar and passed. The House bill to establish a Depart ment of Labor was taken up, laid aside in formally, and the pension appropriation bill was considered. The amendment reported by the Com mittee on Appropriations increasing the amount from $79,000,000 to $80,473,000, was agreed to. I The next amendment was to strike out of the House bill the words ''that in all pensions to widows payments shall be made i from date of death of the husband," and jto insert in lieu of it the following, "that all pensions which have been or which j may hereafter be granted under the general laws regulating pensions to widows, in consequence of death occur ing from a cause which operated in service since the fourth of March, 1861, shall com mence from the date of death of the hus band." - i i i - - ' - Mr. Harris I made a point of order that the amendment was general legislation in an appropriation bill, i ne same ODiecuon, he said, applied to the House clause, but the only remedy in the Senate was to strike it out. A long discussion followed, turning upon the right of the Senate to originate appro priation bills and upon the binding force of the rules against general legislation on appropriation bills. Finally, the presiding officer submitted the point of order to the senate, ana tne senate -decided (yeas 22, nays 18) that the proposed amendment was in order. The Democrats eener&llv voted lathe negative and were 1omed in their vote by Senators Edmunds and Ingalls. - - Alter runner discussion as to the pro bable cosTot the proposed change in the law. another brief debate was had on the department of labor bill. Without finish ing the debate, the Senate went into execu' tive session and at 5 5.25 adjourned. ; - HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Mr. Butterworth said the issue joined between majority and minority was not wneiner me tamr neeaea revision or not whether the rate of dutv imposed on this ar ticle or that was too high; was not tbe line on which they divided. Whether a lower rate of duty, so far as any special schedule was concerned, would yield sufficient reve nue and sufficient : protection to American industry was not ; a point on which they were in antagonism. , The line on which they were divided was on the economic principle itself. Gentlemen on the other side had asserted, time and again, and per sistently, that to levy a tariff, except for revenue for the purpose of conducting af fairs of the government economically ad ministered was unconstitutional, unwise, unjust and robbery of the people. The two parties divided, not as to the wisdom of revising tbe tariff, but as to whether that revision should be so conducted as to destroy the system itself. The point of contest was upon the policy itself and not upon the manner of application. It was mere juggling to say that tariff for a revenue would afford sufficient protection. That was not the question ; but would the tana oe arranged with reference to the dic tates of the protection svstem? He ereatlv misapprehended the people of the country, ii iney would oe misled into ine belief that the contest between the majority and mi nority related to the manner of revision only. Tbe majority assaulted the system and had sworn to destroy it, and if it was not destroyed it ! would not be the fault of the majority, but the fault of the Datriotic people of the country. The passage of the Mills Dill would be direct condemnation of the protective policy, j It indicated to the country that whether the tariff was perfect or not, tne democratic piny was not a nt instrument to perfect it. He drew a series of comparisons ; between his own State as an example of tbe benefit of tbe protective system and the Southern States, as illus trating tne ill-results or free trade and its kindred heresies of a tariff for revenue only and tariff with incidental protection. greatly to the advantage of his own State. air. Bimmons of North Carolina gave his hearty support to the bill, although he regretted that it did not contain repeal of the tax on cigars, cigarettes and cheroots, and on fruit brandy, i - (speeches m favor of the bill were made by Mr. Buckalew, of Pennsylvania, and Mr. Stone,, of Kentucky, and against it by Messrs. Henderson, of Illinois. Grout, of Vermont, and Seymour, of Michigan. The committee then rose, and after some further minor legislation it wasjordered, on motion of Mr. Breckenridge, of Kentucky, that during the remainder of the present wees: tne Jttouee snail meet at lu o clock a. m. The House then, at 5.80, took a recess until 8 o'clock the evening session to be for debate on tbe Tariff bill. At the evening session of the House speeches were made j in support of Mills tariff bill by Mr. Abbott, of Texas, and against lt by Messrs. Owen, of Indiana, and Darlington and Jackson, of Pennsylvania, and at 10 o'clock the House adjourned. SENATE. ' Washington, May .16. Mr. Edmunds offered a resolution to amend the rules so as to make it the duty of the presiding officer of the Senate whenever any general legislation appears in a general appropria tion bill coming from the House to direct the same to be struck out, subject to an ap peal to the Senate. Referred to the Com mittee on rules. A resolution offered by Mr. Vest last Monday, providing for a select committee to examine .questions touching meat and meat products of the United States was taken op. After a long discussion by Messrs. Vest,- Manderson, Collom and Plumb, 4he resolution for a select commit tee was extended so as to make tbe investi gation embrace the Trunk line Association, the Central Traffic Association and other agenciesof transportation, and was adopted. Bideration of bills on the calendar and con- I tinue them for the . entire legislative day, and after to-day. Among the bills passed were Senate bills appropriating $10,000 for a public building at Fort Monroe, Va., and Senate bills to pay j various claimants for cotton taken by Gen. Burnside to strength en the military works at Knoxville, Tenn. ' n '. j . - Having passed in all 88 bills, the Senate proceeded to executive business, and at 4 45 adjourned. j HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES." The House met I this morning at 10 o'clock, and went into Committee of the Whole (Mr. Springer in the chair) on the Tariff bill. ; i , Mr. Baker, of New York, spoke in sup port of the protective tariff, cited the pros perous condition of the industries of his dis trict as attributable to a high tariff, and de clared that the capital and labor of the country were seriously agitated by the re cent development of the free trade heresies of the Cobden clubs in the ranks of the Dem ocratic party.;! i Mr. Bound, of Pennsylvania, regarded the Mills bill as a long stride in the direc tion of free trade and as the inauguration of a tariff policy which must eventually prove ruinous and disastrous to many im portant industries in which his people were largely interested. He thanked the Presi dent for tearing the mask from his Demo cratic followers. No longer could favorite sons of Pennsylvania deceive her laboring men by the declaration that the Democratic party was in favor of protection. Mr. Ran dall could not again j attempt to (save the manufacturing States of Pennsylvania,New York and New Jersey to the Democratic party as he had done four years ago, and if the Democratic party intended to commit political hari-kari, brother Randall would hardly be one of the chief mourners. Mr. Farquhar, of New York, criticized the composition of the Ways and Means Committee and asked if it was just, fair and in propriety of common sense that eleven lawyers, one cotton planter and one railroad manager, should legislate for the American industrial people. The kernel of tbe whole matter, he said, was that the Committee on Ways and Means had not taken into account the fact that within .the last thirty years there had risen np two great powerful bodies of working men tradeslunions and Knights of Labor. Those bodies aggregated over one million of wage earners. Not a respectable petition had come from either body in the line of the Mills bill not one. On the contrary those men had sent to himself, Foran and Gal linger and other recognized representatives of labor on this floor, scores of petitions protesting in the strongest way against the free list and a good deal of the dutiable list of the Mills bill. While it might be pos sible to pass this bill! as a party measure there were revising committees in all labor assemblies which would pass upon its merits, independent of politics. These men would stand like a wall of iron against the free list and tbe cutting of wages, and at the ballot box would decide against the Mills bill in toto or emasculate it- L Ap plause, i Mr. Weaver, of Iowa, expressed his ov erwhelming conviction that the Mills bill was a fair and reasonable measure. It was an honest effort on the part of the majority of the Ways and Means Committee to re lieve the people. Its framers had manifested a liberal spirit towards protected industries which those industries refused to extend to the great body of the people, who were consumers of their - wares and products. He criticized the non-action of Republi cans, and twitted them with finding fault with and abusing the Mills bill, without endeavoring to bring, in any measure to fulfil their pledges to the people, and he declared that the Republican party was in flight and busy burning bridges and felling trees along the road over which the Demo cratic party must advance for the relief of the people. r ( Mr. Russell, of Massachusetts, In the course of a speech in favor of the pending bill, said that the Lowell carpet company has recently suspended operations. The cry had gone up all over Massachusetts that the Mills bill had killed it. Not a bit of it; because its treasurer said that there was no trouble about the Mills bill. The concern, said the treasurer, had been mori bund long ago. It had had to submit to an exaction of 25 per cent, on coarse car pet wool, until it could stand it no longer, and had -to close its works until the Mills bill was passed and the duty taken off of wool. Applause on the Democratic side. Mr. Fitch. who represents a residence di- trict In the upper part of. New York city, a constituency composed, as he said,' of po licemen, newspaper reporters, printers and carriers, and engineers class of work ers who .-have no direct protection, but. are heavy payers of tariff taxes upon every thing that enters into their Jiving food, clothing, fuel and shelter made a long and strong speech in favor of the Mills bill. He was unwilling to put off revision of the -tariff until, the Republicans may have re gained control of the House. . Tariff revi sion he regarded as an indisputable neces sity of the present, and he was not willing to make that Consideration secondary to the question of who shall make the revi sion.,' - . . .. ,-'Vs.-s. ' - Mr. Dalzell, of Pennsylvania, disputed the correctness of the illustrations and sta tistics presented by Mr. Scott of Pennsyl vania in his speech of Friday last and de voted a large part of his remarks to a criti cism of Mr. Scott, In terms" that roused that gentleman's temper. A sharp Windy quarrel occurred between Mr. 8cott and Mr. Dalzell and Mr. Brumm, (also of Penn sylvania) who reinforced Mr. Dalzell, Other speeches .were made in favor of the bill, and against it by Mr. Bayne, of Penn sylvania. Mr. Land, of Nebraska. Mr. Ry an, of Kansas, and Mr. Allen, of Michigan. The committee then rose and the House at 5 80 took a recess until 8 o'clock. At the evening session of the House speeches were made by Mr. Montgomery, of Kentucky, Mr. Shively. of Indians.and Mr. McClammy. of North Carolina, in fa vor of the Mills bill, and by MrrWickham, of Ohio, in opposition to it. The House then at 10:45 adjourned. CHICAGO MA BKET REV1 E IF, Wbeat Higher Corn and Oata Un changed Provlaion Lower. By Cable to the Horning Star. Chicago. May 16. Had the tone of the markets for tbe day been judged by the opening prices on 'Change, the joy of the professional bears would have been full. Wheat differed from everything else in having its opening prices which were fc lower than last night the bottom for the day. Before noon, however, there was such a general bulling of the market, that prices advanced lfc from the opening figures. It was as tbe bulls regard it, an other stride toward dollar wheat. The ad vance was not on cables or on foreign news, but against' it and in spite of it. The bulge here was largely due to a few leading houses. When the crowd was unloading yesterday the big fellows kept still, and many thought they were getting from under wheat. When the market opened this morning about 2c below where they stopped bulling it two days ago, they put their brokers into the pit and with the help of the crowd who bid up to get in again, prices were advanced lie. - July opened at 87JC, sold down to 87c,reacted and advanced to 90ic and closed at QOfc. Corn was without startling feature to day. It showed weakness by opening lie lower than last night. It showed further weakness by a decline of ic to fc from the opening prices. The out inspection was quite large and after wheat had climbed lc corn rallied and Bold I at the bid up of last night's prices, which were the highest for the session.' I Oats opened steady, showed weakness early with corn, and after a slight rally closed about steady. j The provision market' was slow and without special attraction to any class of operators.
