Mr. Simmons, the member from the Second District, is doing good service. lie is quick to see the needs of the people and he is prompt to offer his services. He has just introduced a bill in Con gress to allow imports of cotton bag ging a drawback to the full amount of the duty on said article during the continuation of what is known as the "cotton bagging trust." This is suspending the tariff tax on cotton bagging, and allows all consumers; that is the farmers in the cotton States, to purchase bagging at cheaper rates than the "cotton bagging trust" ...111 ..11 !i - ' 4- iv in aeii iu I We give the bill in full: ' "Wiierkas, Certain persons, co partnerships, and corporations en gaged and interested in the manu facture and production of cotton bag ging have entered into an agreement, combination, trust, or syndicate for 'the purpose of regulating and con trolling the production and the price of cotton bagging in this country, intending thereby to artificially en hance the price of said article to the consumer : Therefore, "Be it en icted by the Senate and House of Representatives f the United States f America in Congress assembled, That the Secretary of the Treasury i i i i i . . . , . ue,. anu ne is Hereby, authorized ana directed to allow a dravback upon all importations into this country of bagging composed in whole or in part of 11 ax, hemp, jute, or any other material, and used in bagging raw cotton, to the full amount of the duty now or which may hereafter during the operation of this act be imposed by law upon the said article : Pro vided, however, That whenever the said Jbecretary shall become satisfied that the agreement combination, trust, or syndicate now existing in this country between certain persons, partnerships, and corporations en gaged or interested in the' manufac ture and production of bagging for bagging raw cotton, to regulate and control the production and the price of said article, has ceased to exist, he shall report the facts tending to show the abandonment of such agreement, combination, trust, or syndicate to the President, who, if satisfied that the conclusion of the Secretary is correct, shall issue proclamation de claring that the drawback allowed by this act shall cease at the expira tion of thirty days from the date of said proclamation, and said' draw back shall cease from that time to be allowed : Prodded further, If j at any timeafter said proclamation said Secretary shall become satified ol the further existence in this country of an agreement, combination, trust, or syndicate, as hereinbefore de scribed, representing as much as fifty per centum of the production in this country of bagging for bagging raw cotton, he shall report the said fact to the President, who shall there upon issue proclamation directing the said Secretary to allow a draw back' to' the full amount of the duty upon all imports of bagging for bag ging raw cotton. The object of this act being to allow free entrance, of imports of cotton bagging during the existence of such combinations, as hereinbefore 'describedjbetween jSse engaged or interested in the domestic production, the said; Secretary and the President shall allow or disallow said drawbacks in the manner here inbefore provided, as often as in their judgment it' may be necessary to ac complish this purpose." ; ! : f 1 , APPROPRIATIONS TO THE STATE GUARD. We have no regular, militia organ ization in the State, and the.great body of lour citizens are exempt from a duty which formerly took up their valuable tiine, without adequate profit to the State. Instead, we have p ' -M. a State Guard, a volunteer organiza tion, which is always at the, service of the State to aid the civil authori ties to quell a disturbance. An ap propriation of $300 each to not more than twenty-five companies of the Guard, making in all 37,500, to en courage these companies, and pre vent them' .'from disbanding, is not thought to be extravagant. It is too soon to forget the promptness with which the companies of the Guard, under orders from the Governor, i ..." :. ' marched to one of our Eastern towns where a mob was defiant of law, and seemed determined : on riot and bloodshed. This appropriation, with a salary of $G00 to the Adjutant Gen eral, and $150 to keep the State's arms and ammunition in order, is - all that the military organizations o the State cost. The expenses of the recent Wrightsville encampment &c.,'were paid from the proceeds o sales of old arms donated bv the United States. ; .'. The Philadelphia Ledger, whose editor was a good enough Republi can to be talked of as the party's candidate fori president, says of -the man in the White House : "Mr Cleveland continues to go upon his official way apparently undisturbed by the campaign which is waging about him. j He is evidently some thing of a philosopher to be so un concerned in rjespect of a contest in which he is one of two central fig ures. His position is that of a man who stands and waits, ready to ac cept if called, without undue ela tion, and ready to step down and ou if not called, without undue depres sion or regret.! ; The conduct of Mr Cleveland during the present cam paign has been most admirably dignified and manly." OUR EXCHANGES. (ireensboro ! Workman : Mr. C. F. Crutch field has retired from the edi torial chair of the High Point Enter prise. Mr. Edwin D.

JVarrenton, Warren County. UA heavy Southern gale on the 21st, lasting fifteen or twenty hours, dam aged tobacco very much. Cotton, though small, was never fruited bet ter. Corn crop! very poor.

Julius Chambers, of the Herald : "we have sent as far as the Polar sea for news, and at rather more danger than that of imprison ment, so I think you will find the I electrical executions reported in our columns. J. Keid, ot the Times "We are in the I business of selling news to the public, and our wares will alwavs include a complete as sortment." John A.
