W. 15. Councill on the Situation Better Iros nects and -3Iore Enthusiasm Than any Time Since 187. Special Correspondence toTHE Plant, Washington, Sent. 22. Senator I A. Vance, who has taken j much inter est in the home campaign, thinks that Democratic prospects this year in North Carolina are! better than they have been at this stage in the canvass at any time since the fa mous canvass of 1876. He says that there is more harmony and a deeper 1 1 , concern on tne paat oi tne peo ple. The Senator's political judg ment and his recent return ' Irom the scene of activity make him a re liable witness. Mr. W. 15. -Council, of Watauga, ex-member of the; legislature, has been canvassing in. his count' and ascertaining the state of the field in many western counties. He arrived here to-daylroni his home and speaks confidently of the progress of the Democratic campaign. In his own section, the Democratic clubs are larger than heretofore) and more alacrity is displayed by the member ship. Taking in review some of the counties in Col. Cowles', Mr. Hen derson s and Mr. Johnston's districts, Ins judgment lrom what he saw and heard, is that Buncombes will be very close. Watauga Democratic bv two hundred inajority, and Cleveland, Gaston, Lincoln, Caldwell and Ca tawba will show considerable gains. The news is strengthed by the story Mr.- Councill tells of a bet which riever took place A Repub lican in Watauga was swelling around, claiming that Dockery would be elected, the Republicans were going to sweep everything, evre He would bet anything on the re sult. Mr. Councill asked him how much he had to bet or wanted to bet on the election, and the fellow said he had only one hundred dol lars with him; "I will cover it," said Mr. Councill. . "Oh, you . Dem-- ocrats just blow over what you are going to do, you won t stand up to the rack. It's no use to go through the form, for you will draw out," he remarked further as Councill ran his hand in his pocket arid drew out the money. "I'll tell you what I will do," said the Democrat, "to show you I am in earnest I will bet one hundred and fifty dollars to one hundred, that the State goes Democratic. by ten thousand.. And here's the money f let's deposit it with ." But the bragging Re publican would not come to the scratch. He was vanquished at his own game. has asked the! department to make known the- wish of Queensland to employ an instructor in the Ameri can method of farming. It is pro posed to pay him for such' service even hundred and fitty pounds perl annum, ne must come wen en dorsed and be a perfectly competent person ot practical and scientilic at tainments. The department received a similar request some weeks since when the salary offered wasjonly six hundred pounds. Up to the present moment only one application has been received from the West (Michi gan), and none at all from the South ern btates. lhe applicants are all from New York, Delaware and New Jersey. Here is a line chance for some young North Carolinian who, having been brought upon tlte plan tation, has in addition taken la course in agricultural chemistry and is like wise familiar with the modes of farming which obtain in other sec- lions of (he Union. , j The Senate having startc tiration into the matter of seeds dis- tributed by the Department Culture, leading ofiicials latter sav that thev welcome it heartily. They state that one thou sand more packages of seeds are furnished to each member j of Con gress than heretofore ; that all seeds are subjected to three rigid tests before distribution they are tried by water, earth and a botanical process, and are required to be seventy-five per cent, at least of a per fectly satisfactory result iri every case.

Thus far T5 Democratic pomina tions for the House of Represcnta tives have been made. Nearly al are farmers, some are business men, but the lawyers are in a mighty smal minority ; so small that as a gentle man remarked a day or so ago there were not enough to compose the judi ciary committee. Col. L. t. Iol k who heard this remark, said promptly inai ii wouKin t, nurt n tnere were some farmers I on that committee .Very likely there will be this time. The next legislature will have a fine personnel, and will lie therefore in shining contract to the last one. Saturday afternoon youi: corre spondent walked through the 200 acre cotton farm I of Mr. r D. Up church, near the water-works. The caterpillars have so . stripped the stalks of their leaves that the field looks as if a fire had swept over it. In some small portions the caterpil lars have jusUbegun their attack and thousands of the repulsive gray-black Creatures may be seen on th e leaves.. The plants are white with a prepar ation put on to poison the caterpil lars. A cotton field at this season is Usually a very attractive sight this one is quite the reverse. Co ton was never known to open so slowly. Some of the largest bolls will never open.

The grand jury will have some important matters to consider. The Parrish case will pome before it to-day. It is believed 4 that the court will take up this case to-morrow and that it will b quickly disposed of. The Cross and White case will be taken up Thursday. It is a current rumor that both prisoners will submit in both the cases against them. i The colored State fair nominally opens to-day. Really it opens to morrow. Of course the darkeys are Alex. Walker, Editor. DruiiAM, N. C., Sept. 21,1888. No tobacco on the market to-day. Ihe weather is very windy to-day. Mr. A. K. Umstead has been out on Flat River and reports the outlook for tobacco;-rverv poor. Mr. James Fletcher reports twenty barns cured ; seventeen very good, three not so good. He also stated he had made some of the best cures that he ever made. ? We think it very strange that Vir ginia men should advocate any pol icy that is so suicidal to the best in terest of the tobacco growers of the State. $850.00 of premiums is of fered on Biirlev tobacco not grown in the State, and can't be grown sue- ail .a i- - . tiTI 1 cessiuiiy in the fetate. w nat good can a Virginia farmer ever hope to derive from Burley ? Not one cent. On the other hand, it is-sapping the very life but of the Virginia and North Carolina tobacco growers. . We can readily see how the western man can blow and puff ' Burley tobacco, be cause it is to the interest of a certain class of their people that can" grow it successfully and profitably, but for a lrgmia or North Carolina man to advocate Burley is to us an absurdity. We do not object tq a western man blowing the Burley as much as he . rin.:- t ii.z i. i i ." oieuscs. mis is leiriumaie ami ins duty to do so as far as he can consci entiousiy, out lor a irginia or Jsorth Carolina man to do this re minus us oi a parent drawing a dagger and piercing it-through his own child. Everybody would sav this was murdeiy and yet the picture is a true one. J Some Virginia people say that the discussion of this question is un fortunate,; it will do harm. We would say to all such that we can see it in mat ngnt ; t neither do we believe that they could see it them selves it they did not think there were some dollars behind it in the way oi commissions or proiit in some way. We have no (iuarrel with any person for the views he may have on any subject; but do admire that dignity of character in any parent that loves his children and will resent an insult and, like a man, detend his own family, and especially his ' own blood, when he can do so without the sacrifice ol principle. We do not intend this for any particular person, but these are our sentiments, let them hit who they may. Burley tobacco may suit the West, and it may suit some dollar worshipers who "claim to be lrginians, and imagine they see; the eagle in Burley, but the man that will sacrifice his own State and the interest of his own people for the sake of gain to himself, deliver me from such a disposition. ticularly those interested in tobacco, speak of attending your j Exposition.
