E. church in this city closed on Sunday night last There has been much interest all along in the meeting, and on Sun day it was indeed a religious jollifi cation, the preacher, Mr. Hix, and others got extremely happy. Quite a number have professed and joined the church. A friend tells us he caught a house Hy a few days ago that had seized upon it two good sized midling ticks Now the question is how did they ,'et on the fly. A tick's, modus op erandi of getting on a fellow is to crawl up his leg, and it must have been fine work crawling np a fly's leg, and what was the fly doing to let them get on him any how. He ought to have fly-ed away when he found them trying to get on him. Ada Daniel and B6b Pipkin have gained a notoriety as boss excursion it. They have run several this sea son and are now billed for another to Richmond Va., on the 27th, see their advertisement in another column.

The Political Economist, edited 7 C W. Macune and Miss Bessie A. I i'wjer at Washington, D. C, is be fore us. It is wtfll edited and their xi-vere criticism of the action of the House on the silver question is good, lit it strikes us that if editor Macune favors reform, as he professes to do, the Ocala platform is broad enough to hold him (he professes to stand fn it) and the Populist party is a po litical party pledged to carry out that platform in it entirely. This is no time for split-offs, get in the middle of the road, lets make a square fight against the enemies of the peo- f pie. In unity there is strength cet ! with us brother. The Alliance basket picnic at Mill preen was a success, decidedlv so considering the rain and otherwise 4bad weather. There was 1000 1 1200 people present. We had plenty to eai ana enjoyed ourselves. We were disappointed in not having as many speakers as we expected, but brother H.J.Faison who does not "'""oi mm, was on hand and give us a rous'.ne talk Everything passed off in a quiet and orderly manner and nearly everv uuuy Denavea tuemseives, though i i j ii i I as usual at such a gathering there I were a few exceptions. We had a TKQod time and much good was ac omhlished, no doubt by our coming her. W (Jus Hollowell ayn we n . , t. kick, the die is ct, the .Sherman Bill wibe repealed: we believe ii; but we are protesting just the .me! It is our liht to protest. If we were going to be hung we would ask the sheriff to suspend operations long enough for us to enter a solemn pro test against all such fooliehuess. We always protest againtt what we con ceive to be against our interest. Some time ago we had occasion to xpeak of the fact, that some of the State Guards w bile on their wav to the encampment, robbed the wa termelon patch of Mr. Tom Snir.es near this city, and we notice that some of the State papers copied the article, and added their condemna- o the dastardly act. But with all this Governor Carr, the comraandei- n-chief, passes it unoticed, and does nothing to show that such conduct Iocs not meet his approbation. If such acts are allowed to go unnoticed and the Deroetrator nn,i.n;sL,i A ft - . what right have we to expect that these pets of (Joxernor Carr mav not feel themselves at liberty to do as they please when called out to take an airing.

Steve Daniel, col., who for years has been a leading drayman of this city, and who so long as he followed is avocation and attended strictly to his business, had the respect and confidence of the citizens, has of late got to be quite a noted character, and that notoriety has not been gained by Ins strict morality. Steve began his career as a ward politician. It wj.3 said that he took an active part in the last campaign and spent considerable of his own funds in the election of Mr. Cleveland and the balance of the Democratic ticket At least we learn that it was so stated to the court before whom he was tried a few months back for whip ping his wife, and it has been inti mated that for that reason his pun ishment was abated, and he was al lowed to go unpunished. Since then we have heard but little of Steve un til a few nights ago, when he con cluded to get on another tare and mop the ground with wife No. 2f and John Denning had to be called in to quiet him. John can tell you wherr, where and how he got him, but he got him, and started to the lock-up with him, and while on the way lie uecume so uiiruny uiat it become necessary for John to club I Lr. 11. .1 "J. him, and after the clubing it f urth- er become necessary for Steve to have to be carried to a doctor shop for repairs. If Steve will take our advice (and we think we have some right to essay to advise him for we gave him his first job as a drayman in Goldsboro, imploying him to drive our dray in the year 1872) he should iet wnisKey aione, urop wne io. z, don't become henchman for any po- litical party, keep the money that his wife and children should have and not spend it in electing a Pres- ident on the Democratic ticket that don't stand on the platform, attend fy bin hiieiiipaa anri bo mau live fr ho respected by his own race and per- haps die a natural death-otherwise we do not know where Steve will wind up. TO THE KEADEKS AND FRIKNDS OF THK CAUCASIAN. The editor and proprietor has gone to Chicago to attend a meeting of the Eeform Press Association. Un last I hnrcday before going he did what he ought to have done sooner (but it is never too late to do good) he took unto himself a wife. He plucked a fair flower from a farm in his native county of Sampson. She is a graceful and accomplished woman and evervwieea reformer. I a wish to congratulate him and the re form movement, for she will be a val uablehelpmate to him as she stands by his side in his future fights for the great cause of justice and humanity. They are now in Chicago, and after the work of the convention is over they will take in the World s air. They will return by Washington City and take a look at Congress, Though the editor-in-chief is on his " -.1 bridal trip be will not neglect the paper. He will send back editorial matter for each issue, He has left the undersigned in charge, who will do his best to keep the paper up to the standard, and trust in your kindness to overlook any short-corn ings.

Sutlers efforts deserve them, ana the reform movement needs ten times that many more copies in cir- culation. Let every- subscriber and friend of the paper and the reform cause go to work for the paper; let us show Mr. Butler that we are all doing our best to hold up his hands in the great fight for reform.

The only hope of rescuing the Democratic party from its embarrassing position now rests with the Senate. And to the Democratic Senators we recommend a study of the fall of th Federal party. That party had lead ers who were of fine intelligence and undoubted patriotism. Washing ton wae its head and around him clustered a bevy of men second only t-j him in high resolves of pa triotism. But arter Washington retirement the Federal leaders of fended the spirit of the American people and the people turned away from those who had been their idols, and the Federal party became odious and detested anil went out of existence. Let the Democratic Senators, who are wise men in their day and generation, remember that the spirit of the American people is to day just as resolute and determined as in the early years of this century. And that the people have a deep seatel prejudice in currency mat ters." This is plain talk. There is a deal of sound sense and truth in it. But like Arp w hen he was trading for the hddle, we are-a little dubious about what prompted the note of alarm. Does the brother feel concern for ,c l"-"" or ror lQe ltar 010 Iarty? in other words, who does he fear will suffer should the Senate" fail to I "rescue the Democratic party from its embarr'afsing position?"

I resident Cleveland and Secretary- Carlisle have stood serene and con i i i i i I fident, while the windbacrs of con gress have been blowing off their surplus gusts. t here is hardly a possibility that the enemies of the Administration can prevail. The views of Presi dent Cleveland on silver were known to the people when he was nouruated and elected. He has not chanertd. neither have the people who elected him, and the House, by its vote for repeal of the Sherman law on Mon day shows that tbat branch of con gress is overwhelmingly with the President, as it should be. The masses and the popular branch of congress earnestly support the Administration in its fight for hon est money, the silver barons are routed. Arcrus. According to the Argus way of thinking, the North Carolina delega tion in conKre3S, except the Great Straddler Ben. Bunn, and Thomas Little, who was elected as a Iiepub- lican, were all wrong in casting their votes for free coinae-e. Thev did Tin? i Ui , . not represent IHk people, although , , , . . , . , luey voieu consisiani wnn uie piai- form upon which they were elected If Mr. Cleveland "is right," and THE people "are right," and"neith er has changed," then according to the ArgU8 way of reasoninff thc Eastern Goldbugs are THE people And the Chicago platform did not mean what it said ; and Charlie Ay- cock and other speakers were de ceived, and therefore were deceiving the people, when they claimed it to be a free coinage platform. Bourk Cockram, the idol of the goWbnga, made a speerh in the nouse against silver auu ii was one of the weakest, most absuru and most illogical speech we have ever heard. He took the position that this country to-day is suffering from m 1 a redundance, ot currency anu not a scarcity. If he was honest in this statement the proper place for him is in an insane asyium. But he is a servile tool of- the gold kings and must use falshoods ad sophis tries in order to to serve his masters. The financial Record published in New York city, gives the lie to Cock- ram's speech when it says that the one and only explanation lies in the vital pregnant fact lack of money. Our country could have continued in its progressive and prosperous path ha(i our legislators with the acuteness which is inseparable from true statesmanship, provided means increase our supply of money. gDjps can not float without 'water, machinery cannot run without oil, j ami Tasf and constantly increasing I business interests of this nation can not be conducted save on an abund ant cash basis.

Here, however, on my place, we allow the calf to nurse from six to seven weeks. The last two weeks we add another cow so that he will not be restleas of niirhts. Once I kept a calf six years as an experi ment to see how much milk he would require as he grew older. My report to the farmers' convention of Erin Prairie, from which 1 quote, shows that at the end of the sixth year he had closed op the cheese factory at Hudson and had diverted the -utput of the Stillwater dairy entirely in his direction. But he was a big, hearty fellow, with a joyous, curly face and a voice that shook our apples off the trees prematurely. 1 never knew a calf that could neigh so freely as he could. When he had sipied a couple of washboilers of fresh milk and cleared his voice, you should have heard bim sound "A." I. A I . ." t - . 1. - l , c il - sixth year, inst as he Wan to tret cun- ning. We h;wl a veal symposium with J1660 I413 raisetl on the place. They grew in rows along by the mortgage. I tried to raise them together, the peas and the mortgage, allowing the peas to clam- ber np the side of the mortgage, but could not raise them both together. We gave the symijosium just as I was leaving the farm to go back and work on a salary again. The name of the veal was Florence Florence Nightingale. He ng nsmni h a Trmtmlrutv fmm Puria aired 68 vears. and I hadn't the heart to change his name, for she was of a sensi tive nature and a trifle over 3 feet in diameter.

He was ever full of life that is, up to the time we killed him. He had a light ring to his Forepaugh bleat and a heavier one in his nose. He got into the pound 11 times one summer and violated two ordinances and a statute before anybody dared put a hand on him. Every time he got in the pound it cost me $10 $10 er pound, as it were. I wanted to call him Patti myself then I could make a veal patti of him but the children said no; Mme. Patti was liable at any time to make another farewell visit to America, and she might hear of it. Milk fed veal does not pay the farmer after the sixth year. Kill the calf at the end of the seventh week while the mother is looking the other way and hang the little speckled pelt over the balcony or nail it to the gable of the porte cochere. Calves of high degree make just as good veal as the low born calf. Full blood Jerseys and Ilolsteins also show the same amount of sense in their early , , T. days that the unknown calf does. It is ju8t as har(1 to getsour milk ontheregu- lar bill of fare with a wild roan calf whose ancestors may be traced with the greatest difficulty not farther back than two years ago. i those are buzzards. We are just learning how to keep meats fresh in North Carolina, We killed a large bossy calf three days ago, and this morning we put a pound of him at the root of each grapevine in our little vmeyard. You ought to have seen those grape vines look at each other. The surprise! The air! The manner to each other, as who should say: "Why recall the past? Why revive dead Issues?' Then the way they began to go np their trellis as far as they could! It was an idea of my own. "All the meat that does not keep perfectly fresh in our new refrigerator," I exclaimed. shall be put on the crops. Every one remarks, "How well every thing ia looking on yonr place!

Some of our friends suggested that we keep our fresh meats at the bottom of the well, but we might have guests come to see us, and their time might be lunitea, so we do not keep these things in the well now.

It in a strange land, full of atmospheric and political surprises. The horticultural exhibit at the legislat ure this year was remarkable. Pomology does not do well, as a gen eral thing, owing to the cold of winter. The Siberian crab apple, of which jelly is made, grows here, and the Kamchat kan watermelon. Grain, however, is the natural product of the country, and in good season it might feed the world. W'th cracked wheat from Dakota and oranges from southern California and Florida, steaks ami chops from Texas and the west. French f ned iotatoes from Ohio and the middle states, corn bread and bacon from Illinois, Iowa and the Carolinas, and coffee made from the split peas of New Jersey, what a breakfast we could give tiie world! Guinea eggs fried on one side could be obtained from my farm. The guinea egg is destined at no distant day to be come the universal remove for breakfast. If better known, there would be a great scramble for this egg (sic). The guinea hen has never pushed her eggs as she might have done, and other fowTls have thus crowded out her handi work, but I can truly say that it is one of the most durable hard boiled eggs for tlioso intending to visit tho open polar sea and carry their victuals with them of which 1 know. With the guinea hen herself I have nothing in common. Our paths are widely divergent. She can go her way, and I can go mine, but her egg if prop erly and promptly collected can be made into a light, spongy wedding cake for the table of wealth, or boiled hard by a well trained cook may surprise and delight the miw of the peasant. The yolk of a hard boiled guinea egg powdered in a deep soup plate makes a good relish when covered at once with three or four inches of hot green turtle soup. I am trying this on my farm hands this year to make an agricultural life as attractive for them as possible. You ask me what I put on my aspara gus bed during the summer, but that is hardly necessary if you will pause to think of my justly celebrated refrigerator. I have an ice box, too, that I made my self when I was at home during the holi days. I did not do as well as 1 can do v. Still it keeps the largest and coarsest pieces of ice from coming out. It ah keeps cows and grownup cattle out. It was made from a recipe in the column of our home paper headed "The Fireside and Spare Room." What 1 get out of this ice box is what I put on the asparagus bed. ours truly. Commodore Van Sanlvoord on Inland Navigation, From Our JTew York Correspondent. Commedore Ahrani Van Kantvourd is thc heirofIloU.it l'lilton and is prohubly the best informed i:an on American sti-iim-boatiiia in tl:e I'nited States. He i-ttbe owner cf t he succ; ssor of the original S iae of ste.-ii.iboats which Kobeit Fulton estab lished. Commodore Van Santvoord said I do not believe that Fulton's invention of the peddle wheel will ever be improved for inland navigation, i here may be some im provemcnts in minor details, but the prin ciple of the paddle wheel will remain su preme, I am inclined to think, however, that H may be possible in the next century to j:o from New ork to Chicago or Duluth. iuuI 'possibly from New York, to New Orleans by inland waterways by . steam bout. If a ship canal i cut across New York state, and it is entirely within the bounds of probability that this will lie done early in the next century, and iiuot her is cut from Chicago to the Mississippi, then it will be rtossible to m;a;e this trip by steamboat. The probabilities however, are that r.avi eation of this sort will be made by screw propellers for the most part rather than by the side whet 1 boat. "1 think the development of an inland marine is going to be something produjyou in the next centurv. While railroad con strnction was yoing on as rapidly a hii been the case iu the last thirty years, inland marine development waschecked. It is now airain attracting the attention of the great capitalists. The tonn:ige through the sbH canal at Sault Ste. Mane has been there" est in the world, and that canal has bvei enlarged only within recent years. "We shall" find the solution to some ol the railway problems in the development of this inland marine, and if the greater canals are dug, which capitalists even now are considering, in the Twentieth century I those who then live are going to see almost I as enormous a system ox luiajiu uieruuui marine r-s are rne railway system, wm. k Daring the 30 years ended in 1880 the creased over 400 r cent.

Ailded to these must be the cnpaelty and tho opportunity, which only ex empt ion from tho necessity of inreesant dally labor can brinx. lo paraphrase bhajtespeare. poverty and liberty are an 111 matched pair. Freedom and dependence are Incompatible. Other men have been called dema- I gvgues for tamer utterances than these. but they have tried to remedy the ills re cited. Mr. Ingalls will be cafe from abuse so long us he confines himself to criticism and doesn't attempt or suggest a practical remedy. Let us read more from Jlr. Ingalls' lance pointed pen, which punctures the painted balloon of Fourth of July bun- comlie: Tho inequality of fortunes and the obvious injustice of tho unequal distrihutlon of wealth among men have !een the perplexity of philos ophers. It U the unsolved enigma of political ecoitomy. ( i'. il).;ition httfl no paradox so mys- terious ax 1 he existence of hunger when there is an excels of fiMjd of want in the midbtof supi-rl.uity. i hat one man should have pos- Bessions beyond the capacity of extravasanoe to squander, and another, able and willing to work, should perish for want of embers, rags and a crust, renders soc iety unintelligible. It makes the charter of human rights a logogripb. So long as meli conditions continue the key to tho cipher in which destiny is written is not re vealed the brotherhood of roan is a phrase. jiirtt ice is a formula, and the divine code is illeg ible. This is not the ranting of a "Dutch socialist," unfamiliar with America and its institutions, but the sober utterance of a man who holds a high place in the roll of American statesmea, and one who has been fanatical in his devotion to the flag and all it represents. Mr. Ingalls disagrees with the clergy men and editors who think jwverty and its attendant evils are a part of the di vine plan; who imply by their actions that they understand the Scripture to mean that the more joor "ye liave with ye the nearer ucxiawm is aone. ine ex-senalor savs: To admit that the ignorance, wretchedness. di;afe, want, poverty and degradation of so ciety are Inevitable and irremediable ia to Im peach God. It is only when he comes to consider the cause for conditions which he de plores that Mr. Ingalls shews his weak ness. Then one understands that he must travel a little longer this road, which is new to him, before he is able to decipher all its sign posts. Without at tributing other cause for existing con ditions than that the freemen of this country have not used the ballot wisely. he declares as fallacious tho claim that extreme wealth is the canse of extreme poverty. By tliL he means that the rich do not become rich at the expense of the poor. There is no necessity for repeating the truths upon this point so familiar to conomic students. Until LIr. Ingalls recognizes the logical fact that no one can drain abnormal riches from the wealth jointly created without depriving others of a portion of their share, and couples that fact with his knowledge that the possessors of great wealth use their possessions to squeeze all they can out of the less fortunate, he will con tinue to stumble along the stony path way, not understanding from whence came the impediments to his progress nor Low to get rid of them. He can see how the peculations of one man in a business concern may make him rich while it impoverishes his partners, but he is unable to apply this parallel to so ciety, which is only a huge business con cern. I want to agree with Mr. Ingalls in one particular. He says: If the unequal distribution of the harden and benefits of society depends upon legislation. In stitutions and government, then under a system like ours the equilibrium ehould be restored. II wealth results from unjust laws ana poverty from legislative oppression, tlie remedy U In the hands of the victims. If they suffer, it Is from self inflicted wounds. The workinprmen of this country, the poor and oppressed, have the ballot, and if they would use it in their wn Inter- "irr.rr nxrr: luuou is not omy possiuie, uqi ua initr1 affirm Tmnn tli narttif thnanwhn are the victims of vicious legislation nothing under the heavenscould prevent the change for the better.
