The novel readers of futuie years will read with interest a work called "Pom l'dro, the last of the Brazilian Emperors." Tom Heed of Maine has wrn the ppeakerhip of tlie next House of Representative.?. He was nominated by the Republi can caucus on the second ballot on Saturday. McKinly of Ohio was jccond in tlu race. Boston and its iieighbor,Lj nn have been severe sufferers from fires during the past week. The former had 5,000,00 and the latter 10,000,000 wo;th of pro perty burned. The electric wires ar to some extent to blame. Who would lather possess 3,000,000 and an annual pension of $!M),000 than to be Emperor of Brazil ? Pom Pedro has made the greatest bargain of the 19th century. He is yet a young man and can spend the remainder of his years in peace and affluence. Ho is better off and should be far happier than were he still an Emperor worry ing over the gravo problems that trouble the Brazilian Gjv- ernment. . i .

Carmichael have been exerting their influence toward inducing employers in the city to allow these of their employ ees who belong to the Wilming ton Light Infantry to no with the Company to Clinton on Wednesday, the 4th instant, to attend the 21st sinnual fair of the Sampson County Agricultu ral Society. The consequence of the kindly efforts made by these influential citizens is that it is more than probable that j farmer to have four ,r Cve fat the Company will be enabled beeves to sell each fall and oc to take twenty-four men to 1 casionallv a calf which l, 1m Clinton on the occasion. At their meeting on Friday night, the company accepted the invitation to attend the fair, and will meet for drill on Mon day and Tuesday nights. They also adopted the following: "Iicsoked, That the thanks of this command are hereby ten dered to Messrs. C. M. Stedraan and Geo. W. Williams for their unsolicited interest in our visit to Clinton on the 4th proximo." Prof. Marion Butler, editor of the Clinton Caucasian, and Sec retary of the Agricultural So ciety, was in the city a day or two ago in tha interest of the fair, and he informs us that it will be the biggest success in the way of a fair ever held in Clinton. Out citizens have be come greatly interented in the fair and no doubt a large num ber of Wilmington ians will at tend as they are anxious to do honor to Gov. Lee and hear his address.

Week before last we attempt ed to sh nv the great probabili ty o. an excessive Tjroduction of cotton and the ruinous effect of ntjch a thing upon those engaged in its cultivation that by reason of the decline in the price of the Maple and the moral cer talnty of a further decline as production incieasep, it had ceased to be profitable for the North Carolina farinti to pro duce cotton in competition with the rich lands of Texas and the Mississippi Valley. our ia-inc.'B, ana in conse quence all other classes of our people, are in a state of great financial depression. This has been brought about by a great many causes the chief of which are as stated week before last in their section, the decline in the price of cotton and the ex haustion of onr naval store pro duct?, to which may be added, a succession of poor crops, and the unjust discrimination made by the national joveriiment against the farmer by the oper ation of the tariff. The price of rearly every thing which thr. farmer buys is made higher by the tariff tax while in the very nature of things the price of nothing that he makes can be increased by protection. A tax on imports cannot affect anything which is expected, ex cept by lessening the demand for exports to give in exchange for imports and this decreasing the prices of our products. Thus the tariff works an injury to the farmer in too ways by in creasing the cot of what he buys, and decreasing the price of what he sells It is hih time that this injustice was ended. The toiler in the fields is entitled to as much consider ation as the wo ker in the shop or factory. But a reduction of the tariff would only bring partial reliaf. It is our firm opinion that in this section prosperity can only be revived by a radical departure from the esiauiisneu practices or uur farmers. We do not pretend to say that we can sketch even an outline of a system that will accomplish what is needed but perhaps if we try and fail some one will succeed. While i is true that each particular case must be governed by its special ciicumstances it may be said in general that less attention must be given to the production of cotton and more to stock raising and food products. Pur ine the latu war such a course was adopted in the South of necessity and the women and children and old men supported the army m the field and were fairly prosperous. This shoui"d serve as an obj?ct lesson for us. It sdiows that our industrial and financial independence is possible. With a large number of cattle, hogs, sheep and goafs and stocit of every kind suited to out- climate the necessity for commercial fertilizers t hat great drain upon the pockets of on:- larmers would be removed atid productiveness of the far metsbe much increased. We should then see bavns full of corn, and a profusion of all farm products. With . little care it would be easv for nac.h raised. Then with a little corn and bacon to sell to his le?s for tunate neighbor, and butter, chickens, egs, etc , we do not tee why he could not come nut ahead at the end of the year and be independent. Then too he could plant a few ac.es in cotton purely as a surplus crop, not with which to pay debts, for there would be none, but to make hard cash in his oivn pocket. Day by day the noble charac ter of Jefferson Davis is becom ing better known. The late war left him owing a debt of $40,000. Since tht time his Iriends and admirers have of fered him the money to pay the debt, but each time he refused it. He owus largo landed pro perty in Arkansas which he now proposes to soil and pay off his debts his uuabil.ty to do w hieh in the past ha.i given him no little trouble.
