This is progress in the right direc fon. Wil. Star. The most difficult problem that will be presented to the in coming Legislature will be rl e same one that has puzzled erv legislative that has as sembled s!nce time benan, viz: How lo equalize taxation? It is a question of supremo iinport mcp. H is a fact everywhere remitted that all citizens are not taxed equally, and that ther is need of rome method that will equalize taxation tnd compel all to beat their propor tionate burdens of the povern mrnt Kaleiuli Chionicle. It is strange, pass:ng strange, that so little is known in the cutside world, of tho wonder fid resources of Eastern North Carolina. No other country of- . fers greater inducement? to the capitalist ticking investinet for his ii oney, or the industrious man of small means who wishes to invest. hi little all, in a country that will guarantee hi in tho greatest return. Rich in the wonderful wealth of forst, rich in vat fisheries and, -be itc:- than all, its agricultural intent the most profitable in the v.irld.

Senator Hoar enjoyed his New Year's day dinner less even than his Christmas dinner if it were possible. Senator Stewart spoiled his Christmas dinner by his speech against the Force bill and his appetite for his dinner was killed by a grand triple attack upon his pet scheme for getting even with the South by Senator's Wolcott, Teller and Hale. The first named Senator fired broad side after broadside into . the Force bill . of unanswerable argument; the groundwork of his logic being opposition to enacting a law for he purpose of placing an acknowledged ignorant and incompetent ma jority over au intelligent ma jority, lie stated plainly that if there were a majority of ignorant negro voters in the State vt Colorado, solidly op posed to tho united intelligent whitfl wites, that in some way and by dome method tho white vote would govern. That lie is a broad guage man the follow ing words from his speech fully demonstrates: "For a quarter of a enntury, out from poverty and despair, the South has been reaching forth in efforts to ulant its foot on the solid rock of material prosperity; and in view of the marvellous growth and transformation now taking place in the ronthcrn States, I believe it would bo unwise and unpatriotic lor us to iuteifero in the conduct of its internal affairs." Senator Telia:- speech was a ringing demand for the shelv ing of the Force bill and the enactment of the financial legis lation demanded by the people of the country, which he des cribed as bemg on the very verge of a iinan;iai panic. Senator Hale's remarks, which piobably hurt the would-be-leader from Massachusetts more than all tho rest, was an attack Ui'ori Mr. Hoar chargimc him with being responsible for the month's time which has been wasted in consideration of the Force bill, aud demanding the speedy disposal of that measure in order that other and mora necessary legislation might have a chance. Mr. Hale also took occasion to" give the clo ture, or gag rule now pending, which he says is altogether needless, a few hard raps. Take them ail in all they were Ihreo of the most remarkable speech es ever made made in ; Congress outside of a secret caucus a gainst a party measure by mem ¬ bers of tho same party. And yet, there is a well grounded fear on the part of democratic Senators that by ti e vigorous-use of the iarty whip and the administration patro nage the bill may be parsed, if it ever reaches a vote, which it will not do if the democrats can by any means prevent it. la order to defeat it up m a vote, assuming that every Sena tor will be in his neat or pair ed, it is necessary that eight republicans should vote against it, and only three have yet openly announced the'r inten tion of so voting, ' although tbeie are a dozen or more who have privately expressed tl em selves as being opposed to it. One thing i tvident it will nave to bo passed or laid asida within th? next ten davs: other legislation, particularly finari Cial, is crowding it, ar.d Senato Hoar ;s reported to have said to-day that if it was not passed next wtec it would never pass Ihe administration has all tbe detectives of the -Post-office de partmtnt working on therocen killing of the po--t-master a arrouton, iMississippi, in order to try to make capital to help jiusiitiie hill through, notwith DMHiuiug ie.ters in u;e I 05Ses sion of Senator Geo gefr un the leading citizens of the town, in eluding its most . influent:a mimg ter, slating that politics had nothing whatever in An with the killing.

The Civil Servico Commission has jumped on Mr. Wanamaker to tno exteut of several news paper columns oecauge of his criticism or its methods in hi annual report.

Democrats are by uo means I anxious for an extra session of Congress, but as now looks al most certain, one be - made necessary by tha faslure of tho liepbulicana to pass the regular appropriation bills they will not complain. They are ready to do their duty, but thev wish the responsibility for an extra session to be placed where t rightfully- belongs on the Re publicans. . THE THIRD COXGUKSSION AD DISTKICT-.Ol'FICI AS VOTE OF 1 1 OX. IS. F. GUADV. A miatate has been going the rounds of tho papers in relation to the Congressional vote of the Thhd Congiessional district that needs to be correct fd. Some of them have it that the Hon. Mr. Cowles received the largest majority of any Demo cratic Congressman elected. Other say that the Hon. S. B. Alexander, of Wilmington dis trict, received the . largest ma jority. These are mistakes. The official count shows that the Hon. B. F. Grady, who had not before run for office at tb.3 bal lot box, received the largeft majority. His majority was 8,807, while that of Mr. Alexan der was 7,300. M. Grady's vote shows his great strength with the people. There is not a more popular Democrat in the State, nor a better man, than the Hon. A. S. Merrimon, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. In every county of the Third District Mr. Grady ran ahead of Judge Merrimon. Not only did he poll the full Democratic strength - of his district, but quits a number of republicans of the various counties also votd for him. The result show? that he is popular with all classes, color.-1, and condi tions of the people of his di- trict, and that tlie cnnvetioiiJanco and prejudice of the mas that nominated him at Clinton, acted wisely and well. As he was a stranger to most of the people of the district, curiosity was stirred as to what sort of a man he was. His intercourse with the people and his speech es in the various counties have given abundant. satisfaction and gratification lo his friends and his party in and out of the dis trict. Hrt won golden opinions wherever he went and spoke. His speechei we:e judicious, impressive and able. While there are not in them many of the flowers of rhetoric or -any of the brilliancy rf tho orator, they possess the highest chara cter of being forcible, logical and statesman like. Mr. Grady though a new man, has con vinced the people that he is a man of no little originality, of fine powers of investigation and of superior intellectual endow ments. He made an excellent record, and avo a high chara cter, to his successful canvass.! in the late campaign.

Krave subjects if constitutional law now demanding the study of the ablest statesman of the country. The product of coun try life, his environments have made him full of devotion to, and sympathy for, the farming and industrial classes, 'amonir whom he has thus far spent his useful life. Nor is he rithout that personal intecrritv ai.d high moral character so much needed in public as wall as private lite. ' Ills garment-! are unsoiled aud his lite unstained by any acts that he would de-sir- to conceal from public view.
