THE CIVIL RIGHTS BILL.
The decision recently lnadt by the
United States Supreme Court, declaring
the Civil Rights Bill unconstitutional,
is but another strong manifestation of
the fact that Radical partisan legisla
tion will not bear the searching light of
clear legal reasoning and judgment,
Unfortunately, the Civil Rights Bill,
like a good many other Congressional
enactments framed by the same men,
and passed under the same political r
ginu, was conceived in malignant pas
sion, more with the aim to .punish a
political and ''unreconstructed' foe than
to do justice to an oppressed race.
This bitter legislation has had its le
gitimate effect. It is true, it wrought
some humiliation in the South, and e
voked some bitterness, for its manifest
injustice. But, none the less, the "curses
have come home to roost" foul brood
that they are: and at the door of the
Radical party lies the responsibility for
this enormity which even a subsidized
Republican Supreme Court, had too
much grace and dignity to counten
ance. How must all but the 'bummers' and
'shysters' of the Republican party wilt
and shrink under this recent decision
all those abler men who have leconie
ashamed of their "bloody shirt" tight
in Congress that made such a thing as
the Civil Rights bill possible ashamed
of the arbitrary and tyrannical course
toward the subjugated States which
made the South solidly Democratic!
It is a significant fact that more vo
ciferous abuse of the operations of the
Civil Rights bill has come from our
Northern friends than from the people
of the South. It was an insidious blow
at our whole social system, which 'we
bore in the main with patience and
moderation. Except when some irre
sponsible repentant apostate like W. W.
Hold en rushed into print to 'out-herod
herod' with intemperance of language
and virulence of sentiment, Southern
writers and speakers were silent and
forbearing. They knew if the North
did not that social equality could not
be forced.

Randall the Protectionist
Defeated at the polls both North
and South, the monopolists cast
about for some way to prevent the
reopening of the Tariff issue. There
was no way in which this could be
done in the teeth of the Free-trade
majority, except through the Speaker
and the capture of the organisation
of the Ways and Means committee.
They turned to Samuel J. Handall
with one accord. Randall was "a
safe man1 Randall had saved them
before, and to Randall they naturally
looked to save them in this emer
gency. The very short-coming and
duplicity -of the man a. Speaker and
politician made him the more eligible
now. He was a Protectionist, and
as such identified soul and body with
the interests of Pennsylvania. So
the cry "No tinkering with the tar
iff r was raised before the real con
test over the Speakership was fairly
under way. Randall, as keen on the
scent for office as he is unscrupulous
in his use of it, saw his opportunity
and began his canvass. Secure in
the support of the Protectionists, he
began by turning hia efforts to the
more timid of the liberal tariff men.
He took the ground that the inter
ests of the party demanded that the
Tariff, however iniquitous it might
be, should be left as it is. He ad
opted at once the extreme views of
Judge W. D. Kelley, of Pennsylva
nia, and advocated the entire aboli
tion of the entire revenue system.
With other high tariff men, he saw
with alarm that the large surplus in
the Treasury would endanger the
Protective system by re-opening the
question of the reduction of taxa
tion. As a Protec-

Some two weeks ago a paragraph,
from some exchange paper, was
copied in the Home-Democrat, stating
that Mr. H. A. Gudger, the proprie
tor of Warm Springs Hotel, had
been arrested for permitting liquor
to be sold at .his bar-room on Sun
day, and also prosecuted on the
charge of permitting, or baring, a
gmoling establishment in his Hotel,
r. Gudger wrote to the Home-Dem
ocrat on the oth of October, denying
the correctness of all the charqe,
and requesting a publication of his
note, but it was mislaid, aurYfhe
correction was not made. We there
fore, now, take pleasure m statin?

the Warm Springs Hotel, but has
notning vo ao wAth the Bar-Room
on" the place tnat is separate from
the managercnt of the Hotel. In
regard to gambling, Mr. Gudger has
no special room for that mirnose.
and if the law is violated in that
way, it is by individuals who use
private rxjd-rooms, and without the
consent of the manairer of the
Springs. But to make the matter
short, Mr. Gudger has not been ar
rested on charges of any sort.

masters up to tlie time of his death.
His name was George Parrot, and he
was 79 vears old. lie was a foreman

Wonderful Cotton. Last fall
Mr. O. O. Volters, of Point Caswell,
sent to us the most wonderful cot
ton boll we had ever seen -It was
raised by Mr. Ow-en Savage, of Pen
der county, and contained 13 cells
of a beautiful staple, all of the cells
being fully open. We placed it on
exhibition at the Produce Exchange,
where it was seen and admired by
hundreds. This morning Mr. Yol
lers sent us another boll which is an
improvement on the other, remark
able as the first was. This has 18
cells, all open and bearing 7ell. It
was raised by the same man, Mr.
Savage, and we understand from oe
who saw it that Mr. Savage has
another boll which contains 17 cells.
It is the most remarkable product of
I plant we have ever seen or heard of.

Veterans of thb Mexican War.
A convention of the veterans of
the Mexican war will be held in
Washington, D. C, December 6th,
7th, and 8th. The proposed reunion
is deemed of special importance, in
view of the bill now pending in Con
gress to grant a pension to all hon
orably discharged veterans of that
war, as an act of national justice to
the men who, by the triumph of
their arms, on a foreign soil, added
a vast territorial empire to the Re
public. A citizen's committee on
hospitality will be organized for the
purpose of extending to the visiting
veterans a suitable reception.
Capt. 0. R. Smith, of Durham,
requests all Mexican soldiers who
can or expect to attend this conven
tion to inform him by letter at once
that he may notify the association
at Washington, D. C, and make all
necessary arrangements for trans
portation. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.

At a mass meeting held in Annapolis a few
evenings since, GenT Bradley T. Johnson said in
substance, that unless the States of Maryland
and Virginia took active measures to preserve
and develop the Oyster by intelligent supervision
and energetic police, the 80,000 people and $5,
000,000 employed would be compelled to engage
in something else. We can promise that Oysters
will be larger and fatter than ever before. The
two lots shipped to you last week attest that
fact We have much better facilities than here

and packing establishment, new ice-house,
