Even Tom Watson's District went Democratic. Guess the Third party think the are not in it now in cither of ,hese States. And the Rads, or where are they ! The death "of Lord Tenneson, the renown English Poet, takes one more away from lifes scenes. He breath ed hia last, last week at bis home in London, surrounded by his family. America regrets to hear of his death, for many. of her people have read his poems with delight and edification. His remains were placed to rest in Westminister Abbey. Give tis G rover Cleveland for President and Elias Carr for Gover nor, and the farmers and laboring class will come nearer getting the re f rra they need and want, than they liaye ever had yet.

ROBBERY OF HOGS AND TURKEYS. John P. Williams, a poor but high ly esteemed farmer in Giles county, had twenty-five fat hogs, which at that time were worth ten dollars per hundred, gross, and a lot of turkeys. Weaver, in nerson took a file of soU Idiers out Jo Williams' place and made the soldiers shoot every hog on the place, and had them brought lo camp. When Williams asked for a voucher Weaver said, -I d"n't give rebels in the South vouchers. I had rather furnish rope to hang every d n one of thaw. Mr Williams :s still living, and will swear to the above if necessary. FONDNESS FOR 1IORSK FLESH. Weaver bad a great fondness for horse flesh, and whenever he found a horse belonging, as he called it, to a -rebel sympathizer," he took posses sion of it without giving any voucher for it, and if the owner valued it very highly and did not want to part with It, he charged him from one to five hundred dollar, according to the value of the horse, for returning it to its owe er. This money he put into his own pocket. ROBBING AND IMPRISOKING TKO MINENT CITIZENS Weaver had a number of law-abM ing citizens arrested and put in jail and then charged them from one to five hundred dollars for releasing them. There were no charges against them. Several of the gentlemen who were put in jail and paid the money are still living, among them Dr. J. C. Roberts, one of the most highly respected citizens in Pulaski. The following are a few of the gen tlemen in Giles county, from whom Weaver coerced money at the point of the bayonet. They were all law abiding and highly-respected citi zens: Thomas Martin, $250 00 Dr. Wm. Batte, 100 00 Charles Abernathy. 250 00 Robert Dickson, 250 00 J. II. Newbill, tOO 00 J. W. Morris. 100 00 David Reynolds. 250 00 B. Abernathy, 200 00 Charles B. Daly, 200 00 Total. $1,700 00 This money was taken January 26. 1864. Th above parties were old men. staying at home and interfering with no one. Several of them bed borne their muskets and followed the stars and stripes through the Greek, Flori da and Mexican wars. They are all dead except Dr. Wm. Batte, who is now living here and substantiates the following : State of Tennessee, ) Giles Connty. $ This day personally appeared be fore roe Dr. Wm. Batte, to mc known as a man of high standing and credi bility, and says that he was a citizen of Pulaski, Tenn.. during the war of the rebellion and has been ever since That he was personal'y acquainted with J. B. Weaver, who as Colonel of the United S'ates troops was in con trol 0f the forces stained in Pulaski, Tenn-. in 1863-4. That said J. B. Weaver was . very oppressive and extortionate upon the citizens of said town and vicinity. That said com mandant J. B. Weaver issued a mili tary order requiring the above parties and perhaps others to pay over to him a large sum of money for the al leged purpose of supporting refugees then within his lines. This order was accompanied by the threat that if not complied with immediately that the parties on whom the demand was made would be sent South. Uns der this thraat affiant paid over to said J. B. Weaver the sum of one hundred dollars, and affiant verily be lieves the other patties on whom the demand was made paid the amounts required of them. Wm. Batte.

Pheasant Smith, an old ci'.i zen and former mayor of the city, was here du- ing the war. He &a.ys Weaver was the wornt man that was cyer in this country, and that every Southern man who votes for . him should han his head in sltarue. D. T. Harrison, an old :. citizen of Pulaski, Tennessee, was here while Col, J. B. Weaver was comma.iderof the post. He slates of all men he ever knew Weaver was the worst tha. he at era ed to have a perfect hatred for the Southern people, and took a delight in abusing, prosecuting and robbing them, that he had no respect or, feel ing for old defenceless men, women and children. Sir. Harrison also states that a Mr. Laneir, of Nash tille, had given ijim (Harrison) $1, 935 wish which to buy some cotton, but as soon as Weaver found it out he had Harrison arrested and toik $935 of the money, and then ad ded falsehood to robbery by report ing to Mr. Lanier that Harrison had made away with the monej'.

There are men who propose to in crease the iniquitous taritr for the mere sake of getting office, The Democratic platform says that it is in favor of a lower tariff, and Grover Cleyeland is the real father of tariff reform. No living man, 'they s&y, understands the tariff question. This may be true Clay and Webster and the greatest statesmen of the country disagreed upon the question, but two or three things are patent. t Why should the great West and Northwest, a country which is but one great agricultural field with manufactural es'.ablishments a s scarce as angel in sheol. want to vote tor a party which imposes an unnatural tax upon the necessities of life in order that great manufac turers at ti e east of them may riot in luxury and grow richer with each succeeding year. There is nothing in that vast and boundless country to protect except the home of the sturdy farmer, and yet on each article of food, each article of clothing he coughs up a part of h is scanty hoard, and yells till he is blue in the face of the brand old party which robbed him blind. Ai.d when you ask him why, he says with a great flourish of tongue and lip: "I am a republican a republican, sir, and I will vote for the grand o'.d party all my lif-." Well, let him do it. You can't expect much from a fellow who mixes sentiment with business. The proper thing to do my friend, is to calmly sit down 'n the shade some where, take the two platforms of the two responsible parties the Third party is irresponsible and its credit is not north a tanker's damn, but take the two responsible parties, the republican and democratic, and you will find that Grover Cleveland is the right man. His paity wants a lower tariff, that is his party will cheapen what j-ou are bound to buy and his party will yank a few dollars a week out of the rich Carnegies and others which you to dy allow to make fortunes where 3rou do not make dollars. His party and his platform will as sure 3'ou that the miserable set of scamps and libertines ai.d vagabonds and common. sneak thieves who stole all your mother's goods when they c ima into this countr" to shoot your father down like they would shoot a dog, should be cut from the pension roll and there are thousands of them, and that none but the brave and true Union soldiers who was really crip pled or wounded should receive a a pension at your hands. His party and hU platform will tell you that at the South we want no force bill we do not want a crowd of carpet baggers and common thieves to again invade this fair land to insult our wives and sisters and to lift Sambo upon their back and let him hug their precious shoulders. H is pariy and Lis platform will tell you -that tho country will be more prosperous and we defy you to prove that the platf.-rm is not just what you want if you are honest and ac far as the boycott on us is concerned, the cheap aud dirty asses who wrote the resolutions and the cheaper sneaks and d:rty dogs who defend it, are reminded all the time that we are on to their dirt,! and our address is permanent, Dur- ham, North Carolina. i Vote for Grover Cleveland, and give oue of the wohr who i rowUd art.cttd Iho wmvt'ntioa wi,u-!t -u' pudhitcd" a ruau -.tmiijj: h,: JA Lc was worth to help the braye Buffalo boy who slapped the dirty begers in tie face when they tried to steal pen sions, a greater chance to get some fat office. Durham Daily Globe. Announcement by the Secretary of the State Board of Health. In the death of Dr. Thomas F. Wood, of Wilmington, late Secretary of the North Carolina Board of Health, the State lost one of its moat patriotic and useful sons. He was an able, conscicntous and accomplish ed physician!, an amateur botanist of note, editor and proprietor fiom its beginning of the present North Carolina Medical Journal, al ways in the forefront of those work ing for the el evation and advar.ee rnent of hia profession, and doing more to promote both than any man we eyer had; but the nearest thing to his heart, seoon 1 only to bis love for his Divine Master, wa the North Carolina Board of Health, which was originated by him and kept aliye during the years of its feeble infancy only by his personal .devotion and eacriGce of both time and money, add through it the welfare of the people of his State, Having been honored by the Board in my election to the Secretaryship made yacant by his decease, I can not assume the duties and responsi bilities of the offi e he adored with out thus testifying to his admir able qualities, the loss of which is irreparable. In taking up this work I feel that it would be well to remind the people of the State that the Board of Health was created for their benefit for the purpose of acquiring - and distribut ing as thoroughly as possible, infor mation and instruction as to the best means of preventing disease. Any citizen of the State therefore desir ing such information would confer a favor by writing to the Setretary, who would cheerfully answer bis in quiries. ' The subject of pre-eminent inter est at present is the epidemic of cholera threatening our country. The board has . watched the indications with sleepless eye, and hat given the subject the most thoughtful consid eration, but it has not deemed the danger imminent enough at any time to justify publications which would probably excite and alarm un necessarily many of our people, The danger is daily growing less, and the board does not anticipate any trouble during the coming winter, but fears the awakening in warm weather of spring of the germs which may slip into the country during the co d weather, when the vigilance of the health officers at our ports is liable to be relaxed. Should its fears be jus tified, the people may rest satisfied that it will exhaust every meaf.s within its power lo keep it out of our State. From time to time the secretary proposes to publish in all the papers in the State kind enough to print them, short practical articles on matters relating to the preserva tion of health. In the meantime, if you need information or advice on such subjects, write to Richard H. Lewis, Secretary, Raleigh, N. C, The Democrats of North .Carolina should take Georgia as an example, and on the 8th day of Nov. prove a similar loyalty to our grand old his torical State, and let the pass-word go over her hills and yalleys, "North Carolina gone for Democracy," Guaranteed Cure.
