The grandson of Harrison lias appointed Lincoln's, son, Grant's son and Blaine's son to office. How about tho Garfield and Ar thur boys? Can't uncle Benny do something for thein? There should be no partiality. Last Tuesday was the birth day of Democracy. Jt is exact ly 1 lb' yearn since the founder of the greatest party on the American Continent was born, and S1) years since he won. the great battle of Democracy in the political revolution of 3800. The Wil. Messenger says: The actual strength of the State (Juanl has been increased to 1,600 nu n. Of this number 1,300 to 1,400 ought to be and probably will bo in camp next July. Yes, there ought to be 1,400, but if tbe date is not changed to July 30th or July 23rd7 at the earliest, there will not be 1,000. A few weeks since in our ed itorial correspondence from New York, we said that New York, Brooklyn-, Jersey City and the adjacent country should all bo consolidated under one government and called New York, which would give to America the largest city in the world. We see from the New York papers that a movement has just been started to do that very thing. The three ships we lost in the hurricane at Samoa cost 3,000, 000, the three ships the German Goverament lost cost $1, 500,000, only half as much, yet the lat ter vessels were larger and bet ter than ours. How is this? It is plain enough. Our vessels were built under a high war tariff (which makes- all such material cost double what it is worth), and in addition they were built by pets of a Radical administration in 1876-'77-'78. In 1886 when the legislature of Ohio elected Senator Payne, Halstead, editor of the Cincin nati Commercial Gazette thought that fraud was used and demanded an explanation. The Senate of the United States decided by almost a unaniuious vote that Payne was lawfully elected and refused to investi gate, whereupon editor Halstead used very uncomplimentary Lingua je about the Senate. The Senate has now condemned his course by refusing to confirm Jus appointment as minister to Germany. Tho last Legislature passed an act allowing the city of Wil mington to reimburse any par ty, corporation or partnership starting a new manufacturing enterprise in the place for the taxes paid on all capital invest ed in such enterprises, for a pe riod not exceeding ten years The tax payers of "Wilmington, in their election for aldermen last week, also voted on a propo fition to raise 150,000 to reim burse any such parties as come under the above act. This is a hig step forward for Wilining- -i . . ... . tun, ana we reel sure tnat new enterprises that will spring up under such favorable conditions will amply reward the place for Us liberality and enterprise We now entertain Lopes of North Carolina having a great seaport city. Till: LAZY AN'I THIS ENER- getic. A l'lacc that iw Good lor ISotli. W. II. Harrison, Jr., in his book, "How to get rich in the South," sayc: "Land is cheap, and the lazy man can live easier and the en ergetic man get rich faster than in any othsr country. There is no country mat oners such empting inducements to the capitalist for profitable invest ments," This was said by a man who was raised in the iSortu and knows the conditions under which wealth has been accumul ated there. It is true that the burdens of a high war tariff does not bear eoually on. both sec tions, but while we are fighting for that remedy through legisla tor!, we can in the mean time bo doing something toward equalizing matters by starting fnctories of our own. The last sentence of the above paragraph lints that northern capital ought to come down and develop our country for us; and most of our newspapers are constantly servilely pleading that such maybe, or lamenting that it is not the case. We would prefer to see the South develop itself. But some one says, we have not the capi tal. Then we say let. us make it. A proper spirit of enterprise and co-operation is the most effective capital or rather the most effec tive producer of capital. In the north the capital is more concentrated, in few hands, while the poor are poorer than with ns; in the South the capi at is more evenly divided ew very rich and few very poor. Then it is more necessary that we combine and form large stock companies for the develop ment, of our resources than with the yankje., If we can't raise a arge amount of capital for any one purpose, tnen let us start small ones and then we will learn by actual experience how to use large capital to the best advantage by the time we have made it. It fact, a capacity to use money safely and wisely is more necessary than money itself. The salvation of the South is in manufacturing, then let us put our heads together to work out our own salvation and not wait for the yankee to come and do it lor us. lo come nearer home, what can a place like' Clinton even be without manufacturing enterprises? It will remain'simply what it is Then will not a spirit of -enter prise and co-operation - come over our people and let us put our mites together for the com mon prosperity of our place. IN1ISIKNSIBL.K TO CJ3SS" SUC- Two Things that Go Hand in Hand. Mr. W. J. Davis, proprietor of the Racket Store in Charlotte, and who keeps a column adver tisemen in the Charlotte Chron icle, says : "io me, a merchant, newt papers are indispensible to the success of my business.. The business man who never advertises never reaches the top. Trying to run a business with out advertising is like trying to fly a kite in a dead calm like a ship without a rudder, a watch without a regulator, an engine without fuel a. man na aoout as wen go one hundred miles to carry a message and refuse to use the telegraph. Suc cess in business and advertising go hand in hand, the one is essential to the other." There are a few men in nearly every town who try to fly their business kifes in a dead calm which they call dull times. They don't seem to appreciate the value of a live newspaper to- town; or if they do they don't deem to think it their duty to help support what helps them That man who will stay in town and reap the benefits of its progress, yet will not turn penny toward sustaining and promoting its prosperity, has indeed a little soul within him Blaine has his son Walker for his private secretary. It is wonder he didn't take the job of doing the washing for both houses, and give that to Mrs, Blaine. Deport (Tex.) limes. t 1 1 j : t it u i : n u s in i :ss 31 ax.

This may be in trade, it may be in manufactures, it may be in mechanical arts, or in agriculture; but wherever the man, who, step- loyed community, knows how to set new wheels running, new axes plying; and reapers and mowers in motion, and so of all the various machnery of production, tiansfor- iiiiniun mix uwuiuuiiuii, ur any an Ul A I lit ! 1 1 J JVUV O T HJ-XJ with advantage to the eouimunitv. as he can scarcely fail to do it) and with reasonable profit also to him- self, that man is a business man, though he may not know how to renu, even; inougii lie may nae no money when he commences; though le hassimolv the canacPv which some possess, ana more men aspire to -to make himself a Fort of driv ing-wheel to all that machinery. If ie has this, lie is a true business man, although lie may never have received anything more thac the rudest coin mon school education. In the same lecture he said: Now, thefe are everywhere places where such men are needed, streams run ning idly over rapids to the sea, and timber waiting for the right man to cut and manufacture it. And all over the world to-day, the capacities the possibilities of wealth, are run ning to waste, tor tho want not so much of capitol, though this desira ble, as of the informing and direct- ng mind, to set business in motion. In other words there is a general need of businessmen. Such men are worth more to a community than capital, for they include capital in their own personalities by creating it. It is not capital f o much that we need as the proper spirit to ;reate and use it, for there is enough capital now lying idle in Sampson county, which if DUt to work in a canning or cotton factory or both, to give an . electric thrill to every branch of industry..

Among the budding male gen eration of to-day, it is still true, .- was year9 aS lua& "in lue spring a young man's ianey lightly turns to thoughts of love." It is equally true that the young woman's fancy keeps Mna lmn lir,,M,r i . i j, 1 . r I 1 . -m lining to uiouguis or. me goid- en band winch, as a natural se quench, shall eucircle her taper finger and remind her that she is no i0Uger "self-possessed." Wa u e r yo privilege to ' . 5 ci iou, woman's conduct toward her newly acquired engagement ring ? It feels so strange upon her l and that she cannot help examining It a dozen times each half hour, always, however, on the sly. On the first night she sits up an hour later than usual to. admire it boldly in the se clusion of her own apartment. A frequent kiss is administered to the shining band and its glit tering gem, and during the night she dreams that it has fa lien into a stream and awak ens, clutching the finger to as sure herself that the precious pledge is still secure. Then, on the following day, she wears it only in secret, tak ing care to transfer it to her pocket at table and when in the company of her intimates. But place her among strangers, or amonjj casual acquaintances who cannot be inquisitive, and how bravely will she flaunt the to ken before theL eyes, as one who should say : "I may not be the loviest crea ture in the world, but you will observe that I get there all the same," Gradually it assumes its place in her daily life, and her blush es grow less violent with each succeeding explanation of its significance and each extrava gant description of its donor's attributes. But before it finally becomes a part of herself, as it were, she must, of course, leave dozen times at least upon the washstand, and suffer in con sequence a dozen violent attacks of palpitation of the heart until n it is recovered. m the lite or any woman worthy the name, no incident can carry with it a. charm and an influence equal to tho3e of the engagement ring, unless it be the first smile of the firs born Yet, strange as it may appear, not one woman in a thousand knows my thing of the origin or primal significance of the finger ring which means so much to to her, or pauses to reflect why it should not be as appropriate jy placed in her nose or upon I . otiTrlo I ll&T ailKie.

The Egyptian lady, whose portrait adorns her mum- my case, is exhibited to us with DOtn nanus, luumu uiiu au, covered with rings Just at what period ladies be- gan to wear these ornaments is unknown ; but certainly it i that originally they were the exciasive property of the male and were devoted entirely uuaiura.uv. -"" I I I m no part in tneir existence. An old time writer of considerable repute states' that among the ancienta it was esteemed highly imnrnnpr for sinrfp or nnmar "nproper tor single or nnmar ned person? to wear rirgs un less they were judges, doctors or Senators. With all others it was regarded as evidence of van ity or lasciviousness. - WHERE CUPID STEPPEP IX. Later, however, he says, it was permitted to affianced per sons to wear this honorable dec oration, and this fact is certain ly proof of the high honor in which, wedlock was held if the statement be true. Love's appropriation of the ornament as a token and pledge, is readily explained. " Rings were the most intimate, precious and durable objects which men of old -particulaaly the Romans possessed. A man's ring was his lock and his safeguard ; he would set it on a seal which could not be infringed without discovery. Seals were seldoci forged, and their employment as keys and signitures was abso lutely universal. The stones used were of : the hardest, and I in the British Museum to-day are many which were made be fore the Christian era. With these seal rings forming such an important and general part in daily life, what more complete token of enduring love and faith could a man offer a woman than his seal, or its coun terpart? Such a pledge, placed on her hands gave her at once command of his secrets and of his wealth ; indeed, often of his very life. Iu this relation, too, there was a custom among the ancients which descended to compara tively modern times, and might with excellent taste be intro duced to-day in the use of en gagement rings, in place of the super-abundance of castly bril liants. This was to make a new seal, containing the portrait of one or both of tho lovers. Some of these old portraits still re main to us,' and are a telling sa tire on the advancement of the age. I'notography has produced marvels, but what photograph, however perfect, will preserve the features of lovely woman for one-tenth the time which which has passed over these seal portraits of old? It was this custom of consign ing a man's seal to his lady love which gradually led to the adop tion, after several centuries, of the ring as an independent fe male - adornment, although it had been so used by the ancient Egyptians ages before the Ro man Empire. LOVE, POLITICS AND SUPERSTITION. As loves rule3 the world, so has the fingering, token of love, played its important part in the politics of the world, as wTellas in its "ecclesiastical histor?. It has been used by kings as a war rant to trusted messengers; by courtiers to bear tho portraits if favorite statesmen; by con spirators and criminals to con ceal a deadly drug, and, more recently, by pick-pockets to con ceal a tiny knife-blade. But above and beyond these various uses Cupid still claims it as a survival of the fittest. Politics and love have often been sadly mixed in the ring, as in the case of that which Queen Elizabeth gavH to the Earl of Essex, and which is now in the British Museum. This ring has been thus described: "The ring is formed of twin or double hoops, which play within one another, like the links of a chain. Each hoop has one of its sides flat, the other convex, and each is twisted once around and surmounted by a hand issuing from an embossed fancy work wrist or sleeve, ris ing somewhat above the circle and extending in the same di rection. The course of the twist in each hoop is made to corres pond with th it of i ts counter part; so that on bringing togeth er the flat surfaces of the hoops they immediately unite in one ring. On that hand of which the palm is uppermost is repre sented a heart, and as the hoops close the hands slide into con tact. The whole . device thus presents a triple emblem of love, fidelity and union." The selection of the third finger of the left hand for the engagement aud wedding rings, too, is due to an ancient belief that a small artery ran from that finger straight to a woman's heart. This oeiier was univer sal, although exploded by mod ern anatomists. In the early days of our coun try the Puritans made a strong effort to abolish the custom of wearing rings, as a relic of bar barism, but love laughed at the early fathers of New England At the present time no per sonal ornament is so individual or so intimately associated with the wearer as the ring, and ira pressions both of taste and char acter are frequently founded upon it. It therefore behooves the young lady, of the period notdnly to select her rings in general with exceeding care, but to insist that she shall be con suited as to the fashion of her engagement rin provided, oE course, that she doesn't want a diamond as big as the Koh-i- noor. Cor. N. Y. Star. IT IS LlARCENY. A newspaper in Ohio recently brought suit against forty-three men who would not pay tKeir subscriptions, and obtained judgment in each case for the amount of each claim. Of these twenty-eight made affidavit that they owned no more than the law allowed, thud preventing attachment. Then under the decision of the Supreme Court they were arrested for petit lar ceny and bound over in the Bum of $300 each. All but six gave bond while six went to jail.

Halstead Comes to Grief at the Hands of His Political Friends. Iteg. Cor. C-AlVAsi.vx.l Washington. D. C, April 1. Harrison has rewarded another insignificant son of an illustri ous father by appointing Robert Todd Lincoln Minister to Eng land. It is certainly a queer ap pointment, when the delicate relations just now existing be tween the, Unitod States and Er gland are taken into consider ation. It would naturally seem that a man of great experience and ability would have been se lected as our representation at tho court of St. James. Robert Lincoln has neither; he is a law yer, or rathei has been permit ted on account of his name, to join a firm of Chicago lawyers, and imagined that he was by legal work earning a living for himself and f amily. His abili ty was tested from '81 to '85 when he was Secretary of War, and tho general verdict of the great majority of those that had business with him was that he was a regular "chump," suffer ing with au aggravated case ol big head. The only reason that can see for his appointment is that Blaine prefer j anonetity to represent us in London, because in case of any complications ho will have a better excuse for personally taking thimrs in land, and Harrison in making he appointment was doubtless actuated by sentiment to associ ate the name of Lincoln with that of Fred Grant who had al ready been appointed to office, and besides can never forget how much he himself owes to being the grandson of William Henry Iarrison. Murat Halstead, editor of the )loodiest of the bloody shirt organs, the Cincinnati Commer cial Gazette, has been nominated Minister to Germany. Y e were about to say, let Bismarck be- ware now, how he discriminates against American pork,but there is serious doubt about the ran taukerous "Fried Marsher" get- iug to Germany. The Senate las refused to confirm his nom ination. Senators Ingalls,Teller,Plumb, Culluin and Farnell voted with he Democrats against his con- firmation.whileEvarts aud other Republicans did not vote. Allen Thomdyke Rice, editor of the North American Review, has received his reward t or pub- ishin the "notorious ''Arthur Rich mond" attacks on Ex-Secre- ary Bayard, by being appionted Minister to Russia. It's oretty big pay for very small work. Blaine has paid off some of his lnsn oeots iy having rat gan, who was once president of the Irish National League, appointed minister to Chili. It is to be hoped that there Avill be A. no more guano claims urougut against that country. George B. L.onng, who was a conspicuous failure as Commis sioner of Agriculture, has been appointed minister to Portugal The army of office-seek- ers here is Deginnmg to mm out considerably. Finding that they could not hurry, matters bv remaining here the most of them have fi'ed their applica tions and gone home to wait as quietly as they can for the office that may never come. The old, old story or a man suddenly trying, to beconte greater than his Creator is be ing once more -enacted here. Wannamaker, who was made Postmaster-General by Senator Quay, has dared to recommend a Pennsylvania appointment without consulting Quay. Fool ish Wannamaker. Does he think that Quay and Clarkson propose to allow him to monkey with the big offices under the Postoffice Department ? Such frivolous ideas may have wand ered through his cranium a few davs ago, but it is very safe to say they are now all gone glim mering, never to return again Wannamaker actually had the impudence to offer the post mas tership of Philadelphia to highly respected citizen of that staid old town, who had been known in the near past to vote against tie ring uominees of the Bepnblican party. W annamak es selection was applauded by the business interest of Phila delphia, irrespective of politics. but when Quay heard of it he got Don Cameron and together they read ther:ot act to poor Wannamaker and demanded the position for a machine politic ian. Wannamaker bravely stuck to his friend in spite of all mm threats frm the Senatorial pair. The war was then carried to the White Hon, and Harrison wa. aesurred that ir the nomination of Wannamaker's friend was sent In it would b rejected. Htrrbou havixur more political experience than "Cheap John," saw that a compromise, would have to be patched up; o Wau namaker was sent for and told that tho be-t way out of tbe whole trouble would be to gel his friend to decline aud then to confor with Quay and Came ron as to who should be Kolect ed. This was not at all palata ble to "Cheap John," but he fi nally agreed to have his man declh.d if Quay and Cameron would withdraw their man. And that's thefctauding of tho mud dle now. To use t -ie language of a sport ing mau, the newspaper men of the Republican party cro pity ing in big luck. Latek.A motion was made by Sherman to reconsider the vote to confirm Halstead, but it failed by 9 to 2 5. Murat will stay at home. STRAY HITS OF LIFE, As Pictured by the l'ress.
