The situation in North -Carolina, so far as the Democracy is concern ed, is interesting and peculiar. Sen ator Vance has cut loose from Cleve land; and the letter published by us not long ago, has arraigned him for his want of faith and consistency. The intluence of the Senator is peo digious. The people rally to him, because they see they are about to be sold out by the Clevelandites. Vance's letters were in the nature of a prophecy. The long expected message to congress has appeared. It repudiates the Democratic plat form, and there is a direct conflict between the President and a major ity of the Democrats in Congress. According to Senator Vance, the President is dominated by Wall street and adopts the financial ideas of the money kings. His message recommends, in express terms, the repeal of the purchasing clause of the Sherman act. His language is, "I earnestly recommend the prompt repeal of the provisions of the act passed July 14, 1890, authorizing the purchase of silver bullion." He also desires that congress should "put beyond all doubt or mistake the in tention and the ability of the govern ment to fulfill its pecuniary obliga tions in money universally recog nized by all civilized countries." He means by this, England, Germany, France, Austria and the like na tions which have adopted gold as the standard of value. He means, indeed, that "gold and silver must part company." Thus the pledges of the Chicago platform are deliber ately iguored; and, in effect, silver, according to the President, is to be no longer known as a money metal. The people are left in the lurch. But this is not all. The president takes issue with the Democratic platform upon the tariff. That docu ment condemned the Republican doctrine of protection and declared it to be unconstitutional. The Dem ocrats conducted their campaign, es pecially in the South, upon the idea that the tariff was responsible tor the woes of the country. The presi dent temporizes. lie not only did cot call congress together iu early session; but he is now mealy-mouthed, so far as the tariff is concerned. He says it was his purpose to call congress together, not before Sep tember, with a view to legislate upon what he is pleased to call "tariff re form." But now he says that ques tion must be postponed; and in obe dience to the commands of Wall street, he recommends that congress must at once and exclusively attend to the money question, before any other subject shall be considered. Indeed, the real purpose of the president is not to make any radical tariff changes. He never has intend ed it. lie evidently does not believe that the tariff should be disturbed in any essential particular; and he might as well be a republican, so far as the tariff is concerned. Senator Vance, "our Zebulun," foresaw all this. In fact he has never liked Mr. Cleveland from the very first, when he was president be fore. In his letter Vance has struck the popular heart. The people shout for him and admire him more than ever. Those editors who read him out of the party are now compelled, in truth, to follow after him. He left a smell of sulphur in the air, and they haye taken warning. Had they not done so, they would have had no readers. The , people were Kin.t Cleveland anl with Z-buluo )Htor, haii to the same way I The ,.,,n,-it-c! s'raddk-r at Iia- L-irli UMern.l, in hi wak way, to condemn Ovf-land ni-ajr-.

With a fine flow of big words, he declares 'that some of Mr. Cleveland's pie-mi.-c are irrelevant and some of his argumentation illogical." He finds he must cut loose from Cleveland, ...ml in .loin-' so, he seems to leave Uansom to his fate; for Cleveland and Kansom are twin brothers. Poor JoM-ph (.'aid well also lias been compelled to follow Vance's lead, after reading him out of the party. The fumes of the sulphur did the business. They choked Joseph and he could not endure the odor, lie was indeed "pained" when Vance jumped on him; and his affectionate re me rnbrance of the days when there was no clash between them, almost moved him to tears. Hut the people 7..1.ii1nn nm -TfKuriVl nine klv per.-eives it. He clearly is not pleased " ,. oresi.lent'smessaire; and he . . again follows Zebulun in the old af fectionate way.

"Rethinks our cur- reney should be iixed by other ua- tions." He therefore calls upon the congress at once to retieal this awful law that has worked such ter rible consequences." "He seems at the very close to give a hint for gold :i lone as the American .standard of ues. Aud so the leading editors dis- course. They are none of them pleased with Mr, Cleveland, who was elected by their aid, with a whoop. The small-fry journals of the State will follow their example. A howl against Cleveland will ascend from all narts of North Carolina. It is because Zebulun has spoken, and sulphur is floating in the atmospheie from the sea coast to the mountains.

THE MESSAGE We regret that we failed to get the President's message in last issue ; we publish it in full this week. "While it is short, still it could have been written in one sentence. It recom mends no new legislation, and offers no suggestions of relief, but simply calls on congress, to repeal uncon ditionally the present silver law. In the language of Senator Vance,' the President "is either a traitor, or a fool." The question now is, will Cleveland go to congress, or will congress go to Cleveland f The in dustrial and commercial welfare of the country, is hanging in the bal ance. The Democratic party is in full power, and there is no excuse for it to fail to give the people relief. The majority of the American peo ple are watching with keen and in telligent interest, and their party affiliation in the future, will largely depend on what is, or is not done in the present congress. rUBLIC SPEAKING.

And ; Nora wanted to leave town for awhile." "And never to te us that she w as a ; widow! A confoundedly handsome one, Johnnie, no question of that." The new-made gToom flushed hotly. Lorimer made haste to say: "Dick and Kafe were seeing to the luggage when you introduced the little j lady as Mrs. John's niece." John addressed himself directly to his younger brothers: "My wife waa not a widow. The child is her niece. That le all I am At liberty to tell you Just now, excep t she was as much of a feurpTise to me as any of you. I did not know of her existence until after the ceremony was performed.

It wore an unfamiliar look of anxiety somewhat as if, hav ing consciously wandered very near the . edge of a precipices he was calculating the chances of plunging over. Lorimer turned his eyes from John's flushed face to the dusty pampas plumes which Dick had criticised so severely. Ho smiled at the undue importance the boy had given them. The mantel vases might have been ornamented with sides of bacon for all the notice they had ex cited. Everybody had been still, un natural, uncomfortable. "Your wife is a beautiful woman, John," Lorimer said, soothingly. WILX TOTJ ICOT CALL ME John answered almost combatively: "Yes, Nora is handsome. And she is a sweet, good woman.
