C King, Democrat, beat both the Re- publican and Third parties for cou stable in the recent election. The courier is proud of the fact that it was a Cleveland man before aud after the Chicago con- Tention. It is more for Cleveland now thau ever. .We may be mistaken, but so far as we cau gather, there is not a true Democrat in Liucoln couuty eft ic the Alliance. The actiou of converting the order into a politi cal machine has driven them out. Rev. J. F. Austin left Lincoln- ton this week for his home. He " has been very unwell for some time, lie will probably not con tinue in the ministry longer. We are sorry to see him leave.

We are torry we forgot to rcfrr to it .'ast week. Mr. Elards had about 25 guests and he seived them with tine turkeys and numerous other tich viands. The gmsts were de lighted with the supper.

The marriage will take place in the Methodist church aud the public ire invited to be present. So Lincolntou is to lose another one of her most popular and amiable young ladies.

Lst Friday night was the night for the entertainment noted in last week's COURIER. A large audience greeted the performers and every body went away ddighted. It was a rich euterf moment and Miss Bes sie Johnston and the other young people who assisited ber, 4eserve much credit for it. The first on the programme was Zeddediab, a '"jolly song'' about a "jolly time" which delighted the audience and made it eager for more. Then came tbo recitation?, "7 times lr by little Kate Hoke; "7 times 2 by Miss Bessie Ram saur ; "7 times 3", by Miss Mary Kuox Johnston ; "7 times 4," by j Miss Jennie Wrenshall ; -l7 times 5", j by Miss Pme Crouse ; fk7 times 7r,by Miss Carrie Motz. These recitations were very nicely aud sweetly said. Then Dr. T. F. Costner saug very alegantly the soio entitled the "Song that Reached My Heart." Mr. Bart Sbipp then sung 440h Promise Me'' which was well reudered. He was encored, and he respouded aud rendered another baautifui so'o. Then came the dramatic cantata, 4A Trial by Jury.' It was a tria1 in song of a youug man sued for breach of promise. The trial ended in the judges marryiug the plaintiff. The eautat was well rendered and received hearty applause. Little Kale Hoke then sweetly and charm, ingly recited another little piece about "niussera" little baby. This was foilowed by a quartette, '4Come wherethe Eillies Bloom. lnterN i "-pound party '7.

The excitement of the President, ial campaign has subsided with un- usual rapidity, and the country h is settled down again to busiuess. None of tlie misfortunes winch were predicted has come to pas. Ever.V wiieie the whe"!s of industry aie spinniug busdy .tint, the work iok rtou iraoiii cuisscM .in; iiip:ien s with new coutage and co"tideuce in Ike luture of the country. The South, which has so longsut fered from a liko depresoion in its great staple, cotton, is already ex periencing the good results of the recent victory for the party ot tariff refoim. The expected removal o! the Chinese wall has encouraged a renewed demand for our cotton in the foreigu markets, and it is now two cents a pound above its receut low water mark. This is equal to a rise of ten dollars a hale and gives the South about seventy million dollars more for the present crop than it would have received at re, cent prices. The stimulus to enter prises of every kind in the South- ern States must be iinmeuse. in spite ot the bountiful crops j and enormous exports of products I the balance of foreign trade just now appears to he running against us, aud in finaucUl circles they are discussing the changes of an f ffhix of gold. Sterling esenaue is so near the level at which thi yellow metal could bj shipped that the payineut of a higher premium abroad oi the stategy of speculators for a fail in stocks heie might easi ly send gold from oui shares. This adverse balance is immediately due to very large imports and to the low prices ot the products we are exporting. As a matter of tact, we have recently been exporting more jvbeat and flour thau a year ago, Sut the price has been moro thau tweuty ceuts a bushel lower It. must be remembered, hovjver, that the price a year ago was un usually high. The average export price of wheat for the year ended June 30 last was one dollar and thirteen cents per hu-bel, as agamt ninety-three cents the previous year aud eighty-three ceuts the year before that. In veiw of the enormous merchandise balances in our tavor for a protracted period ought tobe able to veiw a turn in in the tide for a few mouths with equanimity. Labor is well employ ed throughout the country and money is easy everywhere. Wall street is bewailing the lack of spec ulation, ut this, while embarras- sing for the broker aud promoter, s by no means an evil for the coun try at large. If Wall street desires activitv iu bond- and shares let it use all its influence to secure tne repeal of the pernicious Sherman law, under which wo are storing away one hundred and forty tons of silver per month aud issneing notes Amount (ommissiouers.
