THURSHAY, FEBRUARY 15. 1S9. Henry Watterson says be agrees with P P Kelly of St. Paul, that Clrve land's second term should have come first. There seem, to be a world of his- tor? and biography in these few words. In 1766. when Benjamin Franklin was bein examined before the Eur lisb House of Commons relative to the rrpeal of the American stamp act, that shrewd old ene, pli'Ios oohcr and stattsmau tins difiued thetarifl: "An external tax is a duty laid on commodities imported; the duty is added to the first cost aud otlxr charges on the commodity, and, when it is offered to sale, makes a part ol tht urice." Modern Republicanism would have the people believe that tariff is a tax that foreigners pay, and not our own people who buy the goods. If the Englishman pays the tax he would have confounded Franklin more than a hun dred years ago. Ungland was then tax ing the colonics in America tor her own benefit, and she used the tariff to accom plish her purposes. The consumer pirn the tax, and the American is the con stinier. UBT TOGETHER. Without entering into the mutter at length and essaying to show discrep ancies in his f Simmons' account in com parison with others, we have read, wt say this that his account does not agree with that given by Senator Va- ce anr Maj. Edward J. Hale. In some respect!- it does not harmonize with accounts oi prominent gentlemen we have beam who visited Washington in the last lew months. Wilmington Messenger. There must be harmony. It is pie with sugar on it for the Republicans to stand around and see this fight go on betwem the two senators at the expense ot lb Democratic party. How much longei shall this spectacle be presented, is the question. Il the friends of all concerned in this unfortunate affair cannot get to gether, how can it be expected that the voters will .' The present aspect ot tht quarrel is distressing, no matter who U blamable. It is time to call a halt, and have an understanding that shall stop the contest where it is. Some comprom ises may be necessary on both sides, but they will not necessarily be such as shall be wholly distasteful to either party. Get together, gentlemen, and stop this unseemly and costly wrangle. MARVKLLOl'H SCKNhRV, tORTff CAR0L1XA FOLKS. Statesville correspondence Charlotte Observer; T. W.

The Washington correspondent ot the Richmond Dispatch savs that Mr. Chas. N. Vunce received a letter Monday morning from his father, and that the Senator, while not quite so well as when he lust wrote, is Kt'lting on nicelv, but uuder the advice ot his physicians and Iriends will probably remain in Florida until the middle or latter part of March. If Senator Vance were in Washington when l'ickham's case was voted upon, he would vote against the connrmaliun I'rogrcssive Farmer'. L ist fall Jacob Johnston of Catawba county, an-ccen tic bachelor about J-0 years old decided he needed a hclprnute. In D.cembcr hi visited Mrs. Nancy Chapman, a respeci ilile and industrious widow living in the neighborhood. Mr. Johnston minted ins troubles and found the widow a ym pathetic l.stener. Sunday btfjre Chnsi- mas was set for the wedding. The in vited guests and the widow were on nand at the time, but the prospective hndegroom came not. Tlie weddm; was postponed. Johnston plucked r courage mid the 20th of Innuary war named as the time for the wedding Again he failed to appear. 'Squire Hull hually captured him and tied the knot in due lorm. luhnston curried the blush ing bride to his houe and tor three duvs the happy couple kept house. l)n tm fourth day Johnston informed his wilt that he "just could not get over his hasn- 'llntss," and asked ber to return to her hi mie and get a divorce at his expense S'ic wtnt aud that is the situation so lar.

The Senators aud their friends were enthusiastic in their exprts sions regarding Asheville and us tnvir- onment. Senator McMillan remarked. "The outlook ot mouutuin and valley is the nnest I have ever seen." Senator Manderson said he had olten heaid ol Asheville's beauty and had contemplated the stop there with a gieat deal ot inter est, "bat," he added, "I was not pre pared to behold such marvi lions seen err." " VANCE-MSISIOSInY A View of l be Cane From I lie Hen aior'n Hide. Prom the Charlotte Times. To get a correct view of this case we mutt go back. Most of our readers know that Vance and Cleveland are not on good terms, and that the relations between Vance and Ransom are very strained. Many may remember an ar tide which appeared in the Times Oc tober 26th, which showed how unfairly Senator Vance bad been treated in tin way of patronage. The fact that bis re:ommendaton lor Collector was turned down by Senator Ransom's op position is fresh in the public mind. Tht fact tbat one ot bis Iriends, a good Dem ocrat and an able man, was defeated tor a foreign appointment by Simmons' interference is not generally known, bui it is a fact just the same. We are tld that more than once Simmons used his official position to defeat Vance's recom mendations. Tbric areonly a few of the facts in the cae, but with only these would any one blame Senator Vance ii he opposed Simmons. . . . Senator Vance's friends have stood much in silence, but silence has ceased to be a virtue, and the defamers of the "good gray bead" are warned to stop their abuse and misrepresentation or they will find trouble ahead of them.

I'min lUc Char'cston New and Courier. The Democratic im tubers of the New York Cotton exchange recently passed a resolution declaring that a law taxing incomes "tends to make perjurer ol honest men." And they are being met now with the pertinent question in different forms, whether they are prepared to speuk for honest men nn the subject.
