Postal Cards. Hon. E. M. Barber,
Third Assistant Postmaster General, has
just issued the following important
regulations concerning the Postal Card
system, which will be adopted through
out the country at once :
Prices. Postal Cards will be sold for
one cent each, neither more nor less,
whether in large quantities or in small.
Uses. The object of the Postal Card
is to facilitate letter correspondence and
provide! for the transmission through
tne mails, at a reduced rate of postage,
of short communications, either printed
or written in pencil or ink. They may
therefore be used for orders, invitations,
notices, receipts, acknowledgments,
price lists, and other requirements of
business and social life ; and the matter
desired to De conveyed may be either
in writing or in print, or partially in
both.
In their treatment as mail matter they
are?to be regarded by Postmasters the
same as scaled letters, and not as printed
matter, except that in no case will un
claimed cards be returned to the writers
or sent to the Dead Letter Office. If not
delivered within sixty (60J days from
the time of receipt they will be burned
by postmasters.
Irregular cards. An ordinary prin
ted business card may be sent through
the mails when prepaid by .a one-cent
postage stamp attached ; but such card
must contain absolutely no written mat
ter except the address; otherwise it is re
fused admission into the mails. "
Counterfeits. All cards different
from those herein desciibed, with post
age stamps printed or embossed thereon,
and purporting to be United States Pos
tal Cards, are counterfeits ; and the
manufacture ot such cards, or the at
tempt to use the same, will subject the
offender to a fine ot five hundred dollars
and imprisonment lor five years. (Sec.
178, Postal Code.)
Spoiled Cards. Postmasters will not.
under any circumstanses, be permitted
to redeem or exchange Postal Cards
that may be misdirected. SDoiled in-
printing or otherwise rendered unfit for
use in the bauds of private holders.
Requisitions. The Department will
not lutnish less than five hundred (500)
Cards on the order of a postmaster.
Individuals desiring Postal Cards will
purchase them ot a postmaster, as in
no case can they obtain them upon di
rect application to the Department.
Major Bingham's Lecture. We
alluded yesterday morning to the fact
that Major Bingham would lecture at
the Peace Institute, in this city, on Fri
day evening next, upon the subject of
the Anglo-Saxon race. He recently de
livered the same lecture in Hillsboro,
and the Recorder thus speaks ot it :
I o say that we were p'eased with
the lecture would but feebly express
the idea oi eaiiaiaon,.. .. . . j .
hearing it, and "that feeling was partic
ipated in we think by all. It was elo
quent, scholarly, bold in its deductions,
and in portions, ingenious and origiDal.
It is impossible to give even an outline
in the small space left to us, and it
were unjust to Major Bingham to at
tempt, it, since we would not dwarf his
grand ideas or copious illustrations.
within the meagre bounds ot a synop
sis. ,
'Major Bingham has the cordial
thanks of our community for his ad
dress, and a high appreciation of an in
tellectual feast rarely enjoyed by it. lie
well sustains his hereditary claim to
talent and scholany acquirement, and
gives abundant proof that he is well
able gracefully to wear the mantle
which has fallen on his shoulders."
TnE Temperance Men Have Won

Down. "Ramsay, " Carry toe
News " to London A Meeting of
Moderate Drinkers Called for
Tins Evening to Make Terms for
Surrender. -By an examination ol the
records of those that are required to
list the amount of liquor purchases for
the quarter ending April the 1st, it is
cleariy shown that there is not enough
ot "the article on hand in this city to
furnish even the moderate drinkers till
Saturday night. It is reasonable, there
fore, to suppose that the lemperunce
men have won tue field, and victory

The moderate drinkers held an mlor-

eequence ot this report, and the general
sentiment seemed to prevail mat itam

WEDNESDAY MORNING. APRIL 30. 1873.
Our State Manupacturies. One
of the main objects contemplated by
the Proprietors ot the News in sending
us to the various counties of the State
is to have reported the location, condi-
tion, capacity, history and prospects of
our State manufactories, so far as time
convenience of location, and accessibili
ty of the same would.permit.
While at Alamance court wc visited
the large Granite Cotton Mills of
Messrs. Holt & Moore, at Haw River
Station on the North Carolina Railroad,
but a lull description ior this mammoth
establishment could not be given by one
so li -tie experienced in machinery, and
"never in his born da jsseed sich a site
afore."
The Granite Mills were established
by the Senior partner, Col. Thos. M.
Holt, long before the war, but on a com
paratively small scale with the present.
Cotton yarns were .only made prior to,
and during the war, and the goods had
a reputation second to none made North
or South.
Immediately after the war, Col. Holt
associated with him in business Capt.
A. G. Moore, one of the most energetic
and enterprising men in the State, who
devotes his entire time and energies to
the business.
The new firm at once commenced the
work of pulling down old buildings and
erecting in stead larger ones on a mod
ern and improved plan, and Haw River
to day would not be known to a visitor
that saw it in 1865.
In our visit we were first shown by
Captain Moore the "town" built by
the firm tor the factory operatives. The
streets are beautifully. laid out, and will
(when time tor growth permit) be shad
ed with elms and other swamp trees.
The houses large, airy, and comfortable
frame cottages, neatly painted and sub
stantially built, with a sufficiency ot
room both ior yarel and garden, and
separately enclosed with an attractive
and handsome palling. Over the '"town"
the proprietors exercise a strict surveil
lance, aud cleanliness, above all things,
is strictly enjoined and mles for this
puipose rigidly enforced.
Leaving the town " we next visited
the principal factory building, situated
immediately on the banks of Haw Rive',
about eighty yards from the railroau
depot and about the same distance from
the Falls of the river.
This building is one hundred and
seventy feet in length, fifty-six wide,
(clear) four stories high, and made of
brick. The first floor is the weaving
department, in which are sixty-six
looms, with warp mills, spoolers, quil
Iers and beamers for same. In this
department the employees are all
females, ranging from fifteen to fifty
years of . age, each one performing her
separate task, and clock work could
not be more smooth.
to spinning, and the operatives are also
lemales. On the third floor is an Eng
lish Opener of the most approved style,
and imported from England by this
firm. There are also two lapper3 or
pickers. There are thirty cards in
operation on this floor with rail-way
heads, drawings ana speeders tor same.
In this tlepartment men, boys and girls
do the work. -
On the lourth story are spoolers and
warp mills, upon which are manufac
tured warps which are shpiped in
quantities to Northern markets, much
of the Philadelphia market being
supplied by these mills.
All of the machinery in the mills are
entirely new, of the very best and most
approved style. Each department fcas
an overseer. Regular hours for work
are observed,", anil we can confidently
assert that no Northern mills are con
ducted on a more systematic plan and
at less expense. The work turned out
is, brown sheetings and shirtings, osna-
burgs, gingham?, licks, drills, cotton
ades, domestic plaids and stripes, cot
ton yarns and warps.
The dyeing department is separate
and apart from the main building, and
with the aid ot the most experienced'
operatives in this department, together
with improved machinery and the best
of materials used, but few manufac
tured Northern goods can compare with
the colors of these mills.
The flouring mills are also situated
on the river oann ana immediately
alongside the railroad. Cars are loaded
and unloaded on the fifty story of the
building. This is said to be the largest
flouring mill in the State, averaging
daily one hundred barrels. The "Morn
ing Star" brand, so popular with
hotel proprietors and lamilies, not only
in this but other States, is manufactured
here.
This is also an immense building.
well arranged with elevators and con
veyors whicii work: by water power.
Tne business of this mill is strictly
wholesale, where the proprietors'
wheat is ground for merchant trade.
On the opposite bank of the river is
also another grist and flouring mill for
neighborhood business.
More we could say of the "Granite
Mills'" ot Haw River, but this we regard
as sufficient. Let our merchants try tne
goods ot this firm for one season, and
our word for it, they will see no neces
sity for sending their money North.
Retraxit. Ex Governor, Ex-Confederate
soldier, Jonas Medlin, now the
very worthy Mayor of Rhamkatte, in
company with his friend and Attorney,
honored our sanctum with a visit yes
terday evening and publicly demanded
a retraxit ot our art.cle in yesterday's
issue in which we put him in the guard
lmuse. As "His Honor" was very re
spectful and courteous in his demand,
and our esteem for his high position.
(he stood erect six feet two, in his stock.
ins,) together with our appreciation ot
his staff ot office, (a green hickory
stick,) we felt in duty bound to say in
to-day's issue that the Mayor stepped
in the guard house through mistake,
was not drunk, only gentlemanly merry,
and moreover he is spoken, ot promi
nently as the President ot , thev great
moderate drinkers mass-meeting to
night at the Baptist Grove.

Meeting of the Executive Com
mittee of the State Agricultural
Society. The.regular meeting of the
Executive Committeo oi the State
Agricultural . Society, President
Holt presiding wa3 held yesterday, and
various, matters of importance to the
success of tbe Fair this fall was consid
ered and acted upon. The Building Com
mittee is now going forward with the
important work they have in hand, and
the original plans, as exhibited by the
Committee, will be carried out, the
whole when completed forming doubt
less the most handsome grounds in the
South. The meeting ol the Committee
yesterday was full, and an evidence of
earnestness was manifested thntwe were
pleased to see.
The Secretary reported some $9,300
as having been subscribed by the city
of Raleigh, and that a committee was
still at work with a prospect of carrying
the amount over $10,000. The whole
grounds,when completed, will have cost
some $32,000, and the Committee hope
to reach this end without leaving the
Society in debt any more than it was
before, the change of grounds was pro
posed.
The work of erecting the buildings
and arranging the grounds will not be
given out by contract, but will be done
under the immediate supervision of the
Building Committee with the assistance
of onr efficient Superintendent. By
this means it is thought several thous
and dollars can be saved to the Society.
The President yesterday aoDointed
Len. H. Adams. Eso.. of this r.itv. on
the Executive Committee, and subse
quently Mr. Adams was appointed on
the Building Committee. We deem
this a good appointment. x

Olive Logan in Richmond. "El-
ma." the Richmond correspondent of the
Norfolk Journal, in his letter of Monday
last, says :
"Olive Logan repeated her lecture on
"Girls" here Saturday night and had a
very fine audience. Governor Walker,
Rev. Drs. Minnegrode and Wall, Judges
Ould and Christian, and many ol our
most prominent citizens were present.
All seemed highly pleased with this
charming lecturess. To night she gives
her last lectute here, on the "Passions,"
and she will have another full house if
it do not rain, as I fear it w'll from the

A Bale of N. C. Cotton to be Sent

Society will doubtless send to the Vi

cotton grown in Harnett county, being
a portion of a lot of over a hundred
bales brought from that county to this
market recently, and said to have been
the most beautilul cotton ever purchased
