The Opinion of The Caucasian and the Opinion of others which we Can Endorse on the Various Topics of the Day. 1890 a happy and oua year to all. prosper- A book called "The Life ana Death of Jefferson Davfs," edit ed by A. C. Bancroft and pub lished by J. S. Ogilvie, is being widely circulated. While many complimentary things are said of Mr. Davis to blind the un suspecting reader, yet the cov ert object of the book is to dam age and belittle the majestic fallen chieftain and the groat principles for which he ever contended. The book is a fail ure and a farce. Let no South ern man givs it recognition. The author of this book is not the historian Bancroft. We see the followiug nen tence in one of the be9t week lies in the State : ''We send out this week to each ono of our (subscribers a statement of their account," etc. The editor of the paper Is a man of ability and well educated. We have heard one of the best ministers in the State make the same grammati cal error more than a dozen times. The fact that such men almost invariably use the plural in suqh constructions is the best evidence or the necessity for a new pronoun of J;he singular number, common gender. There is nothing more hel pf ul to a community than a judici ously manage local Building and 'Lean Association. Taylorsville has one and will find inside of six months that she was wise in organized it. Statesville has one that is now nearly three years old and it is the most ben- eflcient institution in the com mnnity. Many worthy people have, throngh it, been enabled to build and buy homes, others 'have been enabled to lift mort gages fromTthelr property, and . to others still, non-borrowers, it has been an invaluable hav ing institution. It has improv ed the town, added to it? taxa- - 0 ble wealth, made "floaters" per manent citizens, taught people . the habit of savinsr and been beneficial every way. States villa Landmark. Christmas A8S9, was phenom enal an accident of the season, theVwniest 25th of December on record. The time of ever greens and icicles gave way for balmy weather and spring time. The good cheer that usually abounds around the cheerful fireside gave way for a sun bath and an outdoor romp. The as tonished mercury rushed up to 65 degrees and grumbled with the calendar that it had things mixed up; the calendar protest ed that it was right, but that the clerk of the weather had lost hi grip on "Old Sol's" throttle valve. But old Santa Clause was in great luck. In stead of facing the driving snow and neltinir rain and sleet on m v Christmas eve, he had a delight ful moonlight, summer night's' ride and no smoking chimneys 1 to blind Lim in his descent. The weather bureau was so partial to us during the Samp eon Fair that we are disposed not to giumble at any of its ex centriclties,j but we must admit that the novelty of this weather amounts to an innovation on on time honored custom, and one. that; is to be deplored, if Longfellow was right when he Baid that winter never rots in the skies. For if, the usual , amount is to come from not out it means a cold late spring, with the chances in favor of another poor crop year, - , Let us . hope that we are no . prophet and that providence has a kinder fate in store for us.

Gkntlkmkx: Your letter in viting me to attend North Car olina's Centennial, to be held at F&yetteville oc the 21 of No vember next, wan July reciiv. etl, but Vite :v?k'iow!e lesn- Jia.fr been de!ayod unfile: the in to the hope that .'if! improvement iry l;e'alth would enable me Ikj present n.. invited. As time approaches I find that cheri.ihen hope unrealized and that I must regretfully confer my inability to join you in the commemorative celebration. It has been my sincere wish to meet with the people of the Old North State' on the occa sion which will naturally rau; them with just pride to trace the hjHtoric river of their yars to its snurco in the colony of Albemarle. All along that river stand monuments of fidelity to the inalienable rights of the people even when an infant resisting successfully executive usurpa tion and in the difence of the privileges guaranteed by chart er boldly defying king, lords and commons. Always self re liant, yet not vainly self assert ive, hhe provided for her own defence while giving material aid to her neigbors, as she re garded all the British colonies of America. Thus she sent troops armed and equipped for service in both Virginia and South Carolina; also dispatched a ship from ths, port Of Vi mington with food fo. the suf erers in Tston after the closing of that pori by Great Britain. In her declaration that the cause of Boston was the canse of all there -was not only the as sertion of a community of rights and a purpose to defend them, but self abnegation of the com mercial advantages which would probably accrue from the closing of p. rival port. Without diminution' of regard for the great and good men uf other colonies, I have been led to special veneration of the men of North Carolina, as the first to ditinctly declare for state in dependence and from first to last to uphold the right of a people to govern themselves. 1 do not propose to discuss the vexed. question of the Mecklen burg resolutions of May, 1775, which, from the similarity of expression to thegeat Declara tion of Independence of July, 177G, have created much conten tion, because the claim of North Carolina rests on a ' broader foundation than the resolve of the meeting at Mecklenburg, which deserves to be preserved as the outburst of a brave, lib erty loving people, on the re ceipt of news of the combat at Concord between British and citizens of Massachusetts. The broader foundations re ferred to are the records of e- vents preceding and succeedig the meeting at Mecklenburg and the proceedings of the pro vincial Cougress which met at Hillsboro in August, 1775. Be fore the "Congress convened North Carolina in disregard of ODDosition by the Gov. had sent delegates to represent her in the General Congress to bo held in Philadelphia, and had denoun ced the attack on : Boston a nd had appointed committees of safety with such far reaching functions as belong to revolu tionary times only. The fam-i ous Stamp Act of Parliament was openly resisted by men of the highest reputation, a vessel bringing the stamps was seized and the commander bound not to permit them to be landed. These things were done in open day by men who were not dis guised and shunned no ejection. Before the Congress of the province had a?sembled the last royal Governor of North Carolina had fled to escape the indignation of a people who, burdened but not bent by op pression, had resolved to live or die as free men. The Con gress at Hillsboro went earnest ly to work not merely to de clare independence, but to pro vide the means of maintaining it. The Congress feeling quite equal to the occasion, proceed ed to make laws for laisingand organizing troops, for supplying money and to meet the contin gency of a blockade of her sea ports, and offered bounties to stimulate to production oi ar ticles most useful in time of war.
