The Republican vote mailer than was expected. is much According to the New York Her ald the Peonle'a nartv will hold the balance of power in the United BUtes Senate. Justice shall prevail. Buckle on your armor and get ready for the next fieht. The Caucasian will tand br the people and bear their banner in the thickest of the fight The party that is beaten by money is not whipped. The People's party has not had any money to spend in buying totes. It has nuido a grand and heroic fight for principle. A majority of the yeomanry and intel ligence of this county lias endorsed these principles. And the time is fast anoroachin? when w will triumph over the combined power of trickery and corruption money. The Wilmington Star comes out in long editorial headed, "Treach ery rebuked," and accused the lead ers of the People's party of working in disguise with the Republican par ty. Yor such a clam we can only express our sympathy. Any man with a thimble full of senso can see now, even if they were suspicious be fore, that the People's party was no more a fusion with the Republican party than it was with the Demo cratic party. The Railroads did not furnish money to the People's party, but could afford to spend several hundred thousand dollars to put the Demo crats in control of the next Legisla ture. They knew that the People's party would make them pay taxes and rive them no special favors. Under the above heading the Wil mington Messenger of last Sunday publishes the following : "The Third party will hare a final rally at Autryrille to-morrow. Ma rion Butler will be one of the speak ers, and it is probable that the Hon. Wm. M. Robbins and Mr. Ed. Cham bers Smith will go up and divide time with him. Major Robbins and Mr. Chambers arrived in the city last night from Onslow county where they spoke yesterday." Yes, Mr. Butler epoke to a tre mendous crowd at Autryville Mon day, but neither of the distinguished gentlemen referred to above put in their appearance. If they had they would have been accommodated. Mr. Butler is always glad to divide time, for by so doing he always maks votes for the People's party. For the last four days of his canvass no Democratic speaker offered to ask for a division of time, though he hud very large crowds each day. Why ? Bocause they had learned that they lost and that Butler made votes at every contest. HEAL THE WOUNDS. This campaign has been the most heated that has been carried on in this State for many years. Prejudice, passion, and bitterness were the order of the day. But let us hope now that the campaign is over all wounds made may be speedi ly healed, and all bickering may cease, it has certainly been a most unfortunate campaign. The mo tives of good, honest men have been impugned ; friends have been array ed against friends, and iu many in stances divided in hostile camp. Now that the campaign is over, let those who hayo been friends recon cile their differences. That bitterness and prejudice should longer exist is absolute folly, and shows weakness. If a fripnd has been estranged extend to him the hand of friendship and lay aside all bitterness. REASONS FOR THE ANTI OP TION BILL. NATIONAL ELECTION.

A subject of the utmost impor tance to the farmers of this state, and to the South generally, and which has not received the attention of our public press and the people which iU gravity demands, is the Anti Option Bill now pending in Congress. This bill is aimed at future" dealing, a species of gamb ling in the great agricultural pro duct of this country, which ha3 grown into a monstrous evil, and has inflicted incalculable damage on the cotton growers of the South. The conditions of the bill are directed at the seller of "futures," the "short seller," as he is called, who does not own or have any control of the pro duct he sella. He must take out a license at a cost of $1,000 yearly, must give a bond of $40,000, and must pay a tax of 5 cents per pound on all cotton and 20 cents per bushel on all grain that he sells as "f uturea." It is designed to exterminate "fu ture" gambling, but does not inter rupt legitimate trade. We presume a lack pf information as to the details of this iniquitous "future" business is the reason why our people and press have not raised an unanimous And irresistible demand for the pas age of bill. We propose to assist in supplying taffi information, and to that end we invite the fijreful at tention of our readers to the extract wbicn follows, fciken from the print ed volume of testimony before the committee on agriculture f)t the house of representatives, ine bu passed the house by a majority of four to one at its last session. It would lso have passed the senate, but the fatujp rjnga became greatly alarmed by the actwa (4 fye house, and put forth tremendous efforts against the bill, which resulted in its rxstppne ment by the senate until December. It is the first business that then Qouiftfi PP in that body. Its great importance to ppy people will be partially realised yyhen'ijfc js stated that New York and New Urleans ?old 45,000,000 Mes of f uturog the past season, in direct competition; with our prop of 9,000,000 bales of actual cotton, and that by manipu lations of the future boards prices were forced down 3 cents per pound. The rings broke down futures to beat those who bought futures, and at the same time they broke down the price of actual cotton. Our senators and rep."? sentatives, especially the former, must be mau f ktl0w that the inter ests of our people requ" tUe tj-uc- tion ot this nefarious gambling sys tem by piompt passage of the anti option bill. Read carefully this ex tract : "The 'future' business, so called, has certainly grown into an unspeak able injury to the cotton trade, and its effect almost constantly has been to depress prices below their natural level. The cotton future business is controlled in New York, New Orleans and Liverpool, New York having the commanding influeace in this coun try. A nnsr or syndicate control it there, and make the prices which are posted on their boards, and these be ing wired all over the land decide the course of the market. They have control of all machinery of the busi ness.

The crop ..as short ; but in spite of it, the rings having sold futures to the who!;? country, went to work to equei pricea'down and capture the imnunse pile of margins that had been put up. By the methods they kucr so well how to nse, and in the face of facta that would naturally have put prices up, they forced them down some 3 cents per pound, and thus squeezed out of this multitude of buyers 'lambs' they facetiously called" them and got their money. When this had been accomplished, and there was no longer any induce ment to depress prices, the market re acted rapidly to the extent of some 4 cents per pound, and values reached the level which the conditions of legi timate supply and demand justified. That season it was estimated by our best informed business men that the South alone lost not less than $30, 000,000 on futures, all of which went into the pocket! of the rings. It is trange that with such enormous gains in prospect, and that too without a single lick of honest work, and with out a commensurate investment of capital or risk is it strange that the men who gather in tJ?U golden harv est of dishonest plunderihould fight vohemently against any and every effort iud stop or checi the ne farious business?

In the selection of seed I believe it is al ways best to take from stalks bearing two perfect ears. The varieties bearing more than two good ears to the stalk are not considered as good for general culture as thoBe bearing two or only one. Some authorities maintain that it in the true nature of the corn plant to produce an ear or grain at each joint and it is mam taiued further that if it was desira ble to do so the plant could be brough up to that state of condition of fruit fullness that is the growth of an ear from each joint in the caid. There is this difficulty, however, in endeavoring to grow the corn plant with more than two good ears to the stalk. The nature of practicable cultivation necessary in producing the plant forbide or milisates against tne scaiic ana root capable of uprign nuiuing against tne enect or wind and storm if the weight produced by tne piant exceeas two orainary ears. I once saw a very luxuriant growth ironi a new variety of corn just in troduced into the country. 'Ihere were from three to five ears on most of the stalks. In July the field was a thing or beauty and great promise. The owner was calculating on a yield of near 100 bushels to the acre. This is often the case with ordinary culti vations. But soon there came t storm of rain and heavy winds, the green plant, with its heavy top weight was thrown down level with the earth, and such was the excessive burden upon tha stalk that it was never again able to recoveX the up right position, and that was the last attempt ever made by that farmer with the new variety. in the selection of seed, ears should be gathered from stalks that do not show excessive or uudue growth of mere cane. What is wanted iu the plant is grain, not stalk; and vet the cane snouia be ot sufficient size to bear up properly the two ears. These two ears should be also low upon the staiK, not so nigh that they will make the plant an easy prey to the vviuu in tneir top-heaviness. Varieties of corn with the single and even double ears are enabled to resist or recover from the effects of orainary wind storms.; in the se lection of seed at this season of the year the aoubled eared canes are the ones from which the gathering is made, you can reasonably expect the cuunK crop to nave two ears on the majority of the stalks, provided the grouna is sufficiently rich to sustain tne growth. After the selections nave been made, care should be taken to keep the seed ears separate from the rest of the crop, and secure also against the attacks of weevils and other vermin. M. V.

If a citizen is compelletl to iay a heavy tax upon a stock of goods when there is no net income from those goods, it is a hardship. If he has to pay upon a tract of land at a time when he is actually losing money, farming on that land -such payment is a burden whk h necessity alone can induce liiiu to tolerate. - How much more bitterly must these burdens be resented when the citizens who pay such taxes are aware of the fact that those who are mak ing the profits are exempted from tax. The great Bondholders pay no tax. The great National Bankers pay one per cent and are allowed to salve their wounded feelings by making the people pay from eight to twentv five per cent. The great Tariff Barons, as W1 be shown hereafter, not only lose noth ing by taxation, but gaiu by it im mensely. The liail Road Kings pay no Federal Taxes whatsoever, but "upon the other hand, compel a four per cent, tax from the people upon 1, 500,000,000 watered stock.

Seven Democrats voteu xvi ' Unlij two voted against it. So, it will be seen that both Dem ocrats and Republicans are guilty of tnis crime. This Income Tux Law passed Congress July 1, 1862. It dm not go into effect till 1863. By its terms all incomes in excess of $600 and under $10,000 were taxed at 3 per cent; over $10,000, at 5 per This was surely very moderate. The Tax was collected nn.W t1,r- Internal Revenue System. From this source the Government collected $2,741,857 m 1863.

Under these acts the government. collected $32,050,017. In I860 this tax yielded 672.98-2 - 395, In 1807, it yielded $66,014, 428. v ' ' In 1867 the Law Avas nmmi'w!

On J uly 14, 1870. the Tax was extended one year, and rcdueed to 2 J per cent. . This was repealed, as before stated. by an Act which passed the Semite January 20, 1871, and the House on March 3, 1871. The Yeas aud Nays were not taken in the House.

Hence it is iK-rfectlv clear that KUh the Old Parties are responsible for the failure to re-iinpose this Tax just as they were both responsible for its repeal.

The (iivenback Party was the first to denounce the Repeal and to de mum! its re-enactment. nuw TO - 1 lie People's Party is the only pohtiiiil organization which to-day declares in its favor Ac lonij as t!o Old Parties are duiiiinated by the influences which now control thorn, the lucuiue Tax will ivuinin a dead issue-rra monu-m- nt to the servile party spirit which makes la-.vs in the interest of plutoj raey.
