HUMOROUS SELECTIONS. Tt tlx 6 Arrss of Morpheus An Indlsrnant Darkey. Our friend Ooi. 8., residing not a thousand miles from here, in forms OS that he has a colored youth In bis employ who has been with him for some considerable length of time, -and for whom, as he has proven, himself faithful and trust worthy, ho naturally feels some at tachment.' The young man con cluded a short timo sinco that he would like to seo a llttlo of the world and take a little recreation, bo he applied for permission, which was readily granted, d re w the wa ges due him, amounting-to about and departed on a trip up the country After being absent for. bomo weeks and spending all his money ho returned and reported for duty. Inn few days afterwards lie solicited an Interview with Col. H.f Informing him that during his trip ho had met with a dusky dam eel who had captured his affections and he wished his employer to write to her for him. The request was complied with, and In due course of mall an answer camo writ ten In a very neat female hand, the boy's sweetheart having evident ly secured as amanuensis a young lady of culture and refinement. The correapondenco wa kept up for some time, our friend Col. S. enjoying It as well n the purtU more intimately lnttrvttl. At last there came aoitUt iUmuc abound ing more in expressions of tender regard and affection than uuy that had preceded It, which wai duly read to the wnltten youth, the con eluding line of which wrt, a nearly as can bo recollected, us fol lows : 1 think of you the tlrst thing itt the morning, and I think of you the last thing at night, as I fall into tho arms of Morpheus Tho rentier had progressed thus far when the boy suddenly uprung up. commenced pulling off hi cuut, aiid cxclttlly excUImed, "In the urtnsof who?

It should bo deodorized before using by sulphate of Iron .or powdered charcoal. The use of charcoal for deodorizing nfeht soil is attended with peculiar advantages, as it Is of itself, from causes not entirely as certained, one of the best auxiliary manures known- to agriculture. Wherever charcoal is present to a consideral amount in the soil, there grapes and all kinds of fruits flour ish luxuriantly and mildew is un known. Charcoal and gypsum are tho best deodorizers of night soil, as they both fix the ammonia. Lime should never be ust-d with night soli, nor indeed in tho com posting of any animal excrements, as It drives off the ammonia. As before stated, plants take up their foodin tho liquid and aaeous con dition, which, of iist lf, tdiows con clusively that the urine of all ani mals should bo given to the soil. riant grac vines as soon as the wil is in proper condition, using no manure. Cut back the cunes to threo eyes, only one of which should be allowed to grow. Plow old vineyards and apply a dressing of coarse ground bones.

That the platform and prin ciples of tho Republican paity of North Carolina, as heretofore enunciated in its Conventions, are hereby re-atfirined, and events have proved that their prac tical enforcement is essential to tho welfare of the country, and to the main tainence of the rights, interests and liberties of the people. 2. That the Administration of Presi dent Grant meets, with our hearty and unqualified approval, and our delegates to tho National Republican Convention, to assemble at Philadelphia on the 5th day of June next, aro instruct, d to vote for his re-nomination to tho Presi dency of thft United dtates. 3. That the Republican party of North Carolina favors as rapid a diinunuim and as early an extinction of all inter nal revenue taxation as the exigencies of the Government will permit, for tho reason that the details or its collection are necessarily oirensive, and In many respects, oppressive to the people. 4. That all internal revenue taxes on the distillation of fruit ought to bo abol islred. ' I ;- ' 5. That the republican, party of North Carolina recommend to the congress of the United States the passage of a, gen eral amnesty bill, and the adoption of all necessary measures for the enforce ment and protection of thesivil and po litical rights of alt'ctasses 6f American citizens, i : G. That in a free and and representa tive government, we recognize the par amount obligatian to provido efficiently for the general education of the people, and we favor such legislation as will ac complish that end ; thafr-we respectfully recommend and ask of the national gov ernment, such aid, by the provision of a public fund, or the donatton of public lands to the purpeses of establishing schools in the several States, as will se cure to tho masses of the peoplo of all classes the benefits of a liberal educa tion. 7. That we fully endorse the acts of congress, passed to secure equal rights and protection to tho citizens of tho United States, in the several States; and wo respectfully recommend a con tinuance of the present laws and tho adoption of such furthor legislation as will more certainly secure to the citi zeus, full and practical enjoyment of all their rights, privileges and liberties. 3. In the opinion of this convention, the democratic majority of the last leg islature, by consolidating into one act its numerous propositions to amend tho State constitution, endeavored- to forpo upon the people a lalso issue, and to coerce them into the adoption of obnox ious amendments, and insomuch as all these propositions must bo submitted to tho next legislature for ratification, before the same can bo referred to the people, therefore, liesolvcd, 1. That the amendments proposed as a whole do not meet tho approval of the Republican party, be cause their adoption would subvert es sential principles of the existing Con stitution. 2. That Republicans can endorse a portion of said amendments and tho next General Assembly may "adopt such of them as shall seem best for tho general welfare. 9. That we cordially endorse tho administration of Gov. Caldwell, and recognize the fact that our peoplo may rely upon his firmness in upholding their interests and defending thoir rights; and we heartily thank him lor resisting tho revolutionary purposes of those who designed to deprive tho citi zen of the protection atforded by the Stato Constitution. 10. That forgetful of personal prefer ences we pledge ourselves to support earnestly and without reserve, tho can didates presented by this convention, believing that in unity alone is strength, and that principles are more important than men to the republicans of North Carolina. Tbe following is tho plan of organiza tion which was adopted : liesolvcd, That hereafter tho organi zation of the republican party of North Carolina shali bo as follows: 1. A State Executive Committeo of eleven members, to bo appointed by the president of tho State convention; and the presidents of tho convention shall be ex officio one of the members of kucIi committee: 2. A Congressional District Commit tee for each district, to bo composed of one member from each county, to bo appointed by the Congressional Dis trict Convention. ' 3. A County Executive Committee to be composed of one member from each township, to bo appointed bv the Coun ty Convention. 4. A committee of five for each town- It. F.

I expected no reward, and have asked none, for my devotion to the union, it was a heart-offering. Dut 1 never expected to see such arch-enemies as he proclaimed him self to be, given office under the-fe-stored Union. It isa burnlngshffme and disgrace, an insult to loyalty and republicanism, and its tendency Is to humiliate and degrade every honest and true Republican In the State. Permit me, sir, humblv to suggest that if it is the policy of in dividuals whom 'the Republican elect to high places to.flII the offices within their gift or influence with unrepentant 'rebel Democrats, and hereby insult ueceucy and the seu- respect or those who elect them, n Js truly time for us to unload" in earnest, and the sooner tho better.
