North Carolina's resources are vast and varied. No State is richer in mineral wealth. The wheat crop in the North-west is the lagest knwn for years. There will be more wheat to sell in Minnesota and Dakota than at any time within the past five years. Manufactories arc what we need to make Henderson the rapidly grow ing and prosperous town that it should be. Let us encourage small indus tries of every class. It is estimated that the Chatsworth disaster will cost the railroad company a million dollars. With that amount of money they could have built a number of safe iron bridges. The Elizabeth City Falcon notes the fact that the Scotland Neck Democrat has adopted a patent outside, and Mr. Cleveland now gets two pages less of abuse every week than formerly. We as a people have much to be thankful for. Our State has been sin gularly free from disastrous floods, cyclones, and the like, and everything at present points to the best crops we have known in years. From one end of North Carolina to the other the out look is indeed most cheering. There are so many West Point graduates and young officers awaiting promotion that there are not enough vacancies to accommodate them. Let them take to ihe fields and factories of the country for employment. There are vacancies enough to ac commodate them all in these no less honorable vocations of life. As the News- Observer says, from all directions the reports are of the finest crop prospects possible. It does one good to travel. The farmers are delighted from one end of the State to the other, and we do not know when this has been the case before. The out look is most gratifying and we should be thankful accordingly. Col. L. L. Polk, editor of the Progressive Farmer, of Raleigh, read an essay before the Inter-State Farm er's Convention at Atlanta on "The defects in the Agricultural system of the Cotton States," which the Cousti- tution says was admirably read and was pronounced one of the ablest essays ever delivered in Georgia. Ex-Governor Buli.ock, of Georgia, says the Southern people are just dis covering what the West learned a quarter of a century ago the railroads must be the pioneers of development. And they are fast learning the value of printer's ink as a promoter of in dustrial activity and development also another thing the West was not slow to recognize. Of the many enterprising and pro gressive towns of the New South per haps none are improving more rapidly than Chattanooga, Tenn. It has doubled its population and more than doubled its manufacturing and other business interests in the past five years and is still booming. The latest from that section is that natural gas has lecn discovered there in large quan tities. If this is true there is a much brighter future before the town.

Kelley, of Pennsyl vania, has been writing a series of letters to the Baltimore Manufactur ers' Record on the agricultural and industrial re-ources and progress of the South, which have attracted wide attention throughout the country. In the last issue of that journal the last f f T,l kVIW letters ui nit wi JUu6v is published. We make the following extracts. Speaking of North Carolina, he says : I saw during my trip a country upon which the Almighty has with lavish hand bestowed His richest ma terial gifts. It is gorged with every mineral. I have scarcely been in a State that does not abound in coal, iron, copper and lead, and have trav eled over a region of country richly underlaid with gold-bearing quartz. Let me speak specially of North Car olina, because, this is the most beauti ful and richest portion of God's earth upon which my vision or feet have ever rested. You know that she pro duces cotton, tobacco, rice, tar, pitch, turpentine and superior timber. You know that her soil and climate are adapted to the cereals, wheal, corn, i re, buckwheat and oats, but you j probably do not know that that State, I long known as the Rip Van W inkle ct the Union, is the land of wine and honey, the apple and peach, the fig and pomegranitc, all of which I saw prospering in open field and under the most artless culture. Its native vines made the fortune of Longworth, who carried cuttings tbce. The wine producing vine-yards of Western Pennsylvania, and around the borders and on the islands of Lake Erie, and those scattered through Missouri, are from cuttings taken from the native vines of North Carolina. The Catawba, the Lincoln, the Isabella, and richer than all, the Scuppernong, of which, as it has not yet been successfully transplanted, Eastern North Carolina , 1 J , j i spontaneously as a weed. 1 he woods and hillsides teem with the richest honey-bearing flowers, and the bees invite you to put up a rude box, that fhev rrnv rpu-irrl vnnr kindness with ' they may reward our kinaness wan j the sweetest treasure. There is not a i vegetable we produce that will not , . . . XT ,. thrive in North Carolina What are required to regenerate the South are subsoil ploughs, phosphates, agricultural implements generally, a large increase ' of horses, mules and horned cattle, a steadily increasing supply of steam engines and machinery, and such manufacturing machinery as can be moved by water-power. These with a comparatively small amount of cash capital and a few earnest men to teach others their use and value would in a few years make the South bloom like a garden, and develop a popula tion as loyal as was that of any North ern State during the war. May we not, without the fear of wounding any just susceptibilities, re joice audibly over the fact that the gloom and paralysis indicated by the facts I have recalled to the menory of my intelligent readers no longer per vade the richly-endowed, beautiful and once commanding South? H. , I m,aiuiaiiuiiuiiui an. ui iiic jAiuiway of the New South. Her impulses are 1 , . , . . . , those which are impelling the advance I of civilization and the progress of wealth and refinement throughout Christendom ; and as her resources, including geographical position and climate, are greater and more diversi fied than those in the possession of any other people of equal numbers, she must at no distant day break from the thraldom of a misguided past, and re- j sume her ouce proud position in the van of civilization s advancing column. She is the coming El Dorado of American adventare. May the Almigty speed and guide her onward progress. "One cigarette manufacturer i North Carolina has sold iS.oto.-uo cigarettes during 1887.'.' And the year not yet two-thirds gone I Think 1 ; of the number of people who find em ploy men t with this firm, and the j amount of money brought to the tow in which they operate by their annual sales. And there is not a better noint 1 ; anywhere for the manufacture of cigar ettes and smoking tobacco than Hen derson. Why is it we cannot have such establishments here ? All that is needed to make North Carolina the greatest State in the Union is to have her resources fully developed. Naturally she is the richest in minerals and ores of all kinds, and her soil is most fertile. Our people need waking up and stirring around some to sharpen their wits. So says the Snow Hill Enterprise. This is what the Gold Leaf lias ar gued all the time. Ours is' the grandest State in the Union, but the world does not know it, and what is still worse, comparatively speaking few of our own people know and appreciate the won- : 1 ueriui resources ana capabilities of j North Carolina as they should. The, need to be enlightened on the Mibirrt and the Press must do it. Let us have less to do with matters that concern not the people so much and more to i do with the industrial development of the Old North State i Burgwyn at the Inter-State Farmers' Convention. From the Charlotte Chronicle we- taKej the f ol low i njr. Speaking of the prom inent j part the North Carolina representatives took at the Inter state Convention of Farmers assembled in Atlanta last week, j it says of cur townsman, Col. Iiurgwyn : Col. Wm. II. S. Luifrwyn, of Henderson, : made a very pretty ie.-ponsc to the welcome j f-peech of the Mayor ol the city. We copy j a few extracts: s We come from that section of tins now , u n i nVd U'd country which had the misfortune j to be ,n the losing siue i.. me m.., to b buttliouuh our cause was lost, tne neroisin. citizen soldiers can never die; s-.pplause and these glorious memories will be cher ished and handed down to our posterity as . i riv. . , . . : .. in,t a priceless ii.'iiuii-. i" ..vuu, -u , " gallant band do we give more loyal hoi age than to Georgia's favorite son who soldier, statesman and now chief exec a priceless neruage. io none, mi, o. mui nom as cu- tive embodies the most perfect represen tative of an American citizen.

The North Carolina Tobacco Convention The gentlemen who went from Hender son to attend the meeting of the North Car- j olina Tobacco Convention at Morehead j City last week, have all returned, highly ' delighted with their trip and apparently well pleased w ith the work done by the convention. We extract the following on the subject from the Southern Tobacco Jour nal. It says : It is enough to say that the convention was a success beyond the hopes of the most sanguine. About seventy-five tobacconists from North Carolina and Virginia were in attendance, and Morehead City has never entertained a more clever party than that composed by the members of the tobacco convention. The most sincere cordiality and the best of fraternal feeling prevailed throughout the meeting. The convention showed eminent wisdom in its selection of Mr. Julian S. Carr, of Durham, chairman. Mr. Carr's inflnence and his proverbial liberality will throw around the convention a strength and power which could have been given by no other man present. Mr. Bobbitt of Oxford, was equally well chosen to fill the place of secretary, and also lr 1 .interim i r,f . . ' X.tlVVtl4U. VI iviiciii svs Measurer. ,1V" ?' J most important steps taken oy the convention was the permanent loca- tion of the future meetings at Morehead City. Going to the sea shore with a meet. ing of this kind was rather an experiment, but before the convention closed the verdict was about unanimous that Morehead filled all the requirements for becoming the pe: manent meeting place. The fourth Tues day in August was chosen as the day for the annual assembling. In the selection of officers and appoint ment of committees the convention made wise selections. The officers and various committees are as follows : President, J. S. Carr, Durham. Vice-Presidents, J. M. Currin, Oxford : S P. Arlington, Warrenton ; M. W. Nor fleet, Winston ; C. C.

It is very annoying to some people , to be deluded into reading cleverly; written notices in tne newspapers which are only intended to draw the reader's attention to the fact that some enterprising storekeeper has reduced his prices with a view of clearing out what is left of h:s summer stock ; but the annoyance cives place to pleasure when they make up their minds toj avail menisci ves oi iucm. t.upiuiwi opportunities to buy clothing, loir cut shoes and slippers at prices which are really below cos.t. This is what E. G. Davis will be doing this week. The lady who attracted the most at tention, and was conceded by all to le the belle of the pic nic, was dressed from the sole of her foot to the crown of her handsome head in goods pur chased at E. G. Davis'. Tom Hood wrote the " Song of a Shirt," but it was a shirt made at the cost of a toiling woman's health. E. G. Davis sings of a shirt made upon the scientific plan of modern times, and sells it for a dollar. Tenaciously they hung like the dew drops on the wild mountain flower, until they fell and trickled down the mountain side to blend their forces in the sparkling river of competition, where they flowed on until caught in the vortex ol the mighty, torrent which carried them past every obstacle on to the troubled sea of public opinion, where E. G. Davis led the fleet to the haven of delighted buyers. It was Davis' prices that fell. One of the greatest ambitions in life with some people is to secure the best at the lowest possible prices. Such people are recommended to visit E. G. Davis' store. The best dressed and the best look ing men in town are those who buy their clothing at E. G. Davis'. Put a beggar on horseback and he will ride to destruction, but put one of E. G. Davis' suits upon him and he will be immediately given employ ment, which will change the whole course of his career. These days are days of great combi nations. Capital combines to beat labor, labor combines to beat capital, but E. G. Davis has a combination to beat them all ; he combines the high est quality with the lowest possible living prices. JSFotice.
