A WOoOALL. Tow u Tax Collector. The Code Duello How Would Attorney General Settle Sound? .Laiiiont's Successor Personals Ktc. Special Correspondence to The Plant. . Washington, D. C, Nov. 22. The Blackburn vs. Rucker controversy may end in a duel, so the ov.id nunc here say. ihe catii.H, belli is a ques tion of veracity between' Senator Joe Blackburn and Jude Rucker about an alleged statement made by the President. Colonel Clarke, of tli is city, is the possessor of a genuine copy ol the Code Da- rtlo" and some of the newspaper men have been consulting the code to know whether there will be a fight. Colonel Clarke, who is a Kentuck- ian, a friend of Blackburn, and w ho is att fail on all that pertains to the code, intimates that the affair calls for a challenge ! 1 lie quarrel is an unusually and rudiculous one, and men who quarrel in this way are seldom brave enough to follow even the code, and this is not the highest type of courage by u great deal. There has been too much bluster about it for many black eyes or bullet holes to be the result. - Ex-Judge Thomas Settle is nt 'the Ebbitt. It isitliouglit he is working up a boom for: himself and that his ol ject is the A ttorne y-G eneralsh i p of Harrison's Cabinet He deplores the" ravages of yellow Jack in .lack- sonville, his home, and thinks the winter will have to be unusually se vere in order to destroy the genus of the disease. Naturally, he would prefer spending; the next four years in Washington m a position of trust and honor, to which a good salary is attached. Iv the end of that time the yellow fever will bo a thing of the past, and the Judge will probably have formed even more ambitious plans for the future.

News from the Capital. Special Corresxondence Xa The Plant. , Raleigh, N. C, Nov. 22, '68. The canvass of the vote Tor elec tors was completed this afternoon. The result shows that Cleveland's majority is 13,027. To get this the two highest votes for a Republican and a Democratic elector are taken. V, T. Crawford, ol the 9th district, led the Democratic electors, having received 148,oo8 votes, and Joseph J. Martin, of the 1st district, wTas ahead on the Republican side, hav ing 134,700 votes. Col. Waddell re ceived 147,902, James E. Bovd, 134, 084. The "Thirty Party" "electors got only 2,787. F. N. Strudwick was the lowest (147,8U4).on the Democrat ic side, and Julius B. Fortune, of the 9th district,' (134,074 ) the lowest on the Republican side. The board gives the certificates to the following electors : A. M. Wad dell and F. N. Strudwick, at large; George H. Brown, Jr., first district ; John E. WToodard, second ; Charles B. Ay cock, third ; I'M ward M. Pou, Jr., fourth John H. Dobson, fifth : Samuel J. Pemberton, sixth ; Leroy C. Caldwell, seventh; Thomas N.' Vance, eighth ; W. T. Crawford, ninth. . A couple of convicts were brought here yesterday from Stokes county, by Sheriff Dalton.. The Governor's Guard will parade this afternoon and will wear, for the first time, the new overcoats recently issued by the State. Very handsome and comfortable garments thev are. and the troops will no longer dread i cold weather or be debarred from out door parades and drills. It was said here yesterday that in the late election at least a thousand negro ex-convicts voted in this State. Tlie negroes change their name, go to various counties, and in other ways conceal their indentity. It is very difficult to tell them one from another, for among the mass of them there is but little individuality. At each precinct in this city-at the late election there was stationed an em ploye of the penitentiary and every ex-convict who cameTJp was "spot ted" speedily. Not a few walked up with head in air, but when they saw the prison guard they hung their heads and walked away without at tempting to vote. The question was asked yesterday, when did the first North Carolina troops leave for Richmond? The date was May 18th, 1801, when Col. D. H. Hill left the camp near Ral eigh with the band and three com panies of the first volunteers. The other seven companies left here on th'e 20th. The second regiment, which was commanded by Col. Sol. Williams, left camp at Garysburg for Richmond on May 23, 1801. The new electric lights at the capitol square appear to be an improvement on the old ones. The annual meeting of the direc tors of the North Carolina insane asylum, which is located here, will beheld December 5th. There was a slight fall of snow niirht before last and another vester- day morning. The Raleigh & Gaston railroadiias been nearly all relaid with sixty pound steel rail. The road is in finer condition than ever before and will be in good shape for the quick schedules which will come on a little later. Col. L. C. Jones, Superintendent of the Carolina Central railroad, who was here yesterday, gives a good ac count of his line, a part of which will soon be in use on toe new through svstem the Seaboard, ihe part from Hamlet to Monroe will thus be used. The oil mills lind that by the use ol the new machinery much more work can be done than last season, 'and in a more satisfactory and profit able way. Ihe mills run night and day and the output of oil and fertil izer is larger' than ever before. Sometlung ought to be done to re vive the " district road law " project or some otlrer plan for bettering the public highways, now so bad. Ihe scheme fell through once ; possibly the people have become more sensi ble since that failure. Bishop Cranberry, who is to pre side at the North Carolina Confer ence at New Berne next w7eek, will arrive here to-day and will preach at two of the Methodist churches Sun day. Rev. S. H. The mpson, who for a year or more had acceptably filled the pulpit of the Third Baptist church here, has gone to South Bos ton, Va., to take charge of a church. It is whispered that a marriage cf parties very high in social and po litical life will take place here before a great while. Business appears to be quite good, and there are prospects tor the usual large Christmas trade. The outlook, drummers say, is that business gen erally will be pretty Hat in the spring.' The docket of the Federal court. whose term begins next Monday, is not heavy. Perhaps election cases may be put upon it, but this de pends pretty largely upon Judge Seymour's views and action. Some of the New Berne people are pressing the plan, brought forward last year, of building a railroad from Goldsboro to San ford, so as to con nect the Atlantic and North Caro lina and Cape Fear and Yadkin Val ley railways. A prominent railway officer said a few days ago that lie expected their connection will be made in the near future, as matters now stand. There 'will be full- the usual num ber of business changes here at the new year. -The latest enterprise, the steam laundry, appears to be doing very well and to be liberally patronized. One special advantage is that there is-no longer any need to send spe cial articles out .of the State to be laundried. TOBACCO DEPAKT3IF.XT Alex. Walker, Kditor. Di nriAM, N. C, Nov. 23, 1SSS.

" - Kead What SOD lias to Say. yWTe think he strikes the key note of success to the Virginia and North Carolina planters, and would advise every one to look well to their own interest. And in doing this we do not design to reflect upon any one, not even the great admirers of Bur ley. We only desire to do our duty and promote "ihe interest of our own people in preference to others. We have no quarrel with any that may difler with us in opinion, but we feel that it is our bounden duty 1o advise our o w ri peopl e to ch a n ge t h e i r co u rse when we see they are wrong. We have the right to advise them to change, and it matters not who thinks or advises to the contrary. It is to our own people wearespeak- ing, whose interes ist on' and the ' . n . . 1 same. And wnen we say our peopie we mean Virginia and North Caro lina ; and the reason why we take these two States i- because their in terest is almost identically the same and what hurts one hurts the other. nd you whose interest is not one and the same with ours, it matters not where you live, we would venture to. say that you had as well attend to vour own business, and let your neighbors attend to theirs.

The attendance on 'Change to-day was unusually small owing to the attendance on the Danville fair by a large number of our trade. There was little business if any transacted. Loose sales at the warehouses how ever, were quite large, but prices ranged very low. Farmers are be ginning to bring in their tobacco freely, but the prices they are real izing do not seem very encouraging, in fact we don't see how they pay the cost of production. We hope this may serve to curtail the planting of another crop and if they do not improve they will. very likely have this effect. J. M. Taylor. Do Not "Sutter Any Longer. Knowing that a ccmgli can be checked in a day, and the first stages of consumption in a week, we hereby guarante&Dr. Acker's English Kemedy for Consumption, and will refund the money to all who buy, take it as per directions and do not find our statement correct. R. Blacknall & Son. - The Question ol the Hour With; Tobacco Plauters. As provident planters will soon be gin to prepare plant-beds, the ques tion which should most concern them is, "for what tvpe of tobacco is my land best adapted, and what variety is best suited to that type : If fresh, loamv, gray top soil with yellow sub-soil, the bright yellow varieties should be planted, because no type pays better. But if the land is not fresh and the soil is gravely and the sub-soil is of a brownish or reddish cast, then the filler type will be best. A red or black top soil is ur.suited to any of the manufacturing types and crops raised thereon, except the dark rich export type, are disappointing. SWEET Oil LITTLE ORONOKO. There is a growing demand for mild, sweet, pleasant-flavored to baccos, especially for plug fillers and to mix with brights for pipe-smokers, and Sweet Oronoko (called in some ! localities Little Oronoko) is unex celled for such, and should receive that attention it once held, when North Carolina and Virginia plug had no competitors in the markets for chewing and smoking. , The product should be cured by sun and air, and artificial heat applied only as the condition of the tobacco during the curing pro cess may demand, as occasioned by rain and damp, warm weather. The product of Sweet Oronoko, when thoroughly ripe and cured mainly by sun and air, possess qual ities unsurpassed bv Burlev or any other type. It is not o porous as Hurley nor will it absorb so much manufacturing material, but it makes far more substantial, healthy and satisfying -chewing; and smoking to bacco, than Hurley or any other type. When cured by the aid of Hues, the color can be made nice mahogony. which is much in demand and always sells well. The planter, who puts upon the market the types of tobacco wanted, rarely if ever fails to realize satis factory returns from his crops. Ma hogony wrappers and sweet fillers, grown from Sweet Oronoko, always sells well ; and this is the type best suited to much of the soils of North Carolina and Virginia where brights cannot be successfully raised and should not be planted. Planters do well to make a note of this and act accordingly. The east can compete with western Hurley in the filler types only by planting Sweet Oronoko on soils best adapted thereto, and curing the pro duct mainly as Hurley is cured, by sun and air. Tobacco is a luxury, and fashions change in luxuries as in many other things, and we must cater to the fashion and meet the wants of changed taste, if we would succeed. There is a growing demand for mild, well-flavored tobacco, and he is wise who meets that demand, whether in the leaf or manufactured product. S O D. How Doctors Conquer Death. Doctor .W alter K. Hammond says: -After a long experience I have come to the con clusion that two-thirds of all deaths from coughs, pnenmonU and consumption, might be avoided if Dr. Acker's English Remedy for Consumption were only care fully used in time."
