' KUFUS AVEliY. ifjiflil! pIEffl jUlj Lh 1 EASYlli MMHMHHMMUniM I MM m i The Surveys for the S. & W. A. L.. It. It. From the Shelby New Era. We are glad that work upon the surveys for the Southern and Western Air Line has been begun under the supervision of so experi enced and accomplished an engin eer as Major Wilson. His ability and strong interest in the success of the road, over and above his of ficial connection with it, will iu sure every effort being made for the adoption of the best line. It is, to a citizen of Cleveland coun ty, still more gratifying to know that an honest effort will be made to comply with the terms of the subscription, that the road should be built from Shelby in the direc tion of Crauberry as nearly as practicable through the centre of the county. What this means need not now be discussed. Every man in the county understands it and kuows the circumstances un der which it was framed. Major Wilson's assurances that he will endeavor, in good faith, to secure the most praticable route ruuning nearest through the centre of the county and that he will try to sat isfy all the reasonable people of the county with his determination should be satisfactory. Wipe Out the Internal Revenue. The Cinciuati Gazette, republi can, very properly says: "The Internal Keveuue system should be wiped out absolutely w . . . a a it was justinaiue only as a war . atr mm necessity, xue war oeing over, "d the revenues being in excess ot the wants of the Government, it should be abolished. There is a sentiment iu'favor of maintaining liquors and tobacco, but sentiment is not business. The Internal Rev enue system has served to cause more perjury and dishonesty than any scheme that ever was or ever could be devised for the collection of revenue. It has demoralized hundreds of thousands of people. It has converted an army of hon est men iuto thieves and perjurers. It has, iu addition, caused a blanket of suspicion to rest upon every man, almost, engaged iu the liquor or tobacco business. At the same time it has maintained an army of office-holders. The sooner the.e are remanded to industrial pursuits the better; and the soon er the detectives, whose busiuessit is to convict somebody of rascali ty, the better for the morals of the country. As to the mere senti ment, there is nothing in that. The tax on liquor and tobacco does not diminish the consumption a particle. There should be no half-way work about the business. The true policy is to wipe out the Internal Kevenue system root and branch. That would dispose of the surplus reveuue very largely, and at the same time wipe out largely the demoralized influences that are cursing the country." The Johnson County Burglars In Limbo. From the Ralalgh News and Observer. Sheriff D. VV. Fuller of Johnston county, yesterday brought to the penitentiary five of the gang of burglars, who, during the first part of this year, kept the good citizens of some portions of Johnston coun ty in continual terror by making various bold depredations, break ing into houses aud shooting at people in the vicinity of Smithfield and Selma. Iu the gang there was a colored preacher, who, when they were captured and put upon trial, turned State's evidence, and escaped his dues of the rope or a long term in the penitentiary. Two of those brought in were sen tenced to seven years each aud three to one year each. The great gucoens of many agents employed by B. F. Johnson & Co., ot Richmond. Is a pretty good evldance at the excellence and popularity ot the books they offer to sell through their agents. This Is a reliable house, and any con tract made with them you can depend ou will te faithfully carried out. The Sumter Defalcation. Sumtek, S. C, Aug. 25. Col. Samuel McD. Tate, of Morgantou, Korth Carolina, a Government bank examiner, arrived here late yesterday evening and was closet ed with President Wallace until a very late hour iu the night. He took charge of the bank this morn ing and has been busy all day ex amining its afTairs. He cannot yet say auything defiuite about its condition, as the investigation has not progressed far enough. He says, so I am told on the streets, that the examiner who was here iu March last, aud who pronounc ed th) books in excellent condi tion, couid not have made a very thorough examination, or he could not have made such a report, as the books were then, as well as now, iu a very bad condition. It seems that very few pcrsous, if anybody at all, had any idea that Bartlett was speculating in futures, although it was known that he possessed great betting propensities and has for several years been investing heavily in the Louisiana State Lottery. On Monday morning, a short time af ter his flight became known, an express package was delivered at the bank for Bartlett, which, upon being opened, was found to con. tain a check of a Kew Orleans bank or a Hew York bank for $150, and $124 worth of lottery tickets. During the Presidential campaigu of 1834 Bartlett is known to have won several hundred dollars on the result. At that time one of his bondsmau wrote him that he desired t. come off the bond, but for some reason he remaiued on it. Ho suspicion was entertained then, however, that anything was wrong with him. One of the counsel for the bondsmen told me this after noon that they intended fighting the matter to the last. Major Green, Bartiett's fatheriu-law, telegraphed his family that it will be impossible for him to come out here at present. An Affecting Incident. At Greenville, S. C, oue day last week, a venerable colored man named Peter Herbert was arraign ed in court on the charge of re tailing liquors without license. When the witness for the govern ment had been examined, the ven erable ex-Governor Conham went on the stand to testify to the good character of the defendant. Tall aud erect with eyes still glowing with the fire of eloquence, he stood and asserted the honor of Herbert, who, for forty years had been his trusted slave and friend, and al though over 70 years old enfeebled with recent illness, he had made a journey of over 100 miles for the sole purpose of defending faithful old Peter in his hour of need. The incident was rendered more touch ing when Adjutant-General Bon ham, Peter's 4young master," ap peared as his attorney, informing the service as a pure gratuity to the old man. The case ended in acquittal, aud tears of gratitude streamed down the face of Peter, as he expressed his thank to "old i aster" and to "young Mass Mil- lge." The Longest Beard. Globe Democrat. There lives at Corinth, Miss., a characteristic man, personally and nisconcaiiy. runup iicnson is a person of imposing presence aud appearance. Ho is a farmer of small means, but more progressive and wide awake than is usual with his class. He is about CO years of age, six feet two inches tall, straight as an Indian, and, stand ing erect, his beard reaches the grouud. It is the growth of eleven . I a -w m years, ana is stm growing, it is unquestionably the longest beard ever seen in any age of the world.

Correspondence of the ChArtotte Chronicle I have some reason to write on his subject. I am aware tl.at there are many young men who are m search or some sort ot ho.,. est employment, and whose hearts s.uk m Uespmr an.1 turn mto the downward road. Why ! Because there are, it is remarkable, so . ... i. . . . i many wen meaning business men in the country who rudely turned away boys and young men who auuatucu mem in fcuarcu oi em- , pioyineut. They don't seem, 1 sup pose, to think how much of dis couragement to a young man with high hopes aud honest purposes iu search of employment there U iu the rude, indifferent auawer, Ko, I have no work for you." We dare say iu fact, we kuow that m.tny a boy with honest ambition aud lofty purpose, heard this answer from the business mau until his fond heart sank in despair. It is false to assume that because of his being out of employment, an J en. gaged in hunting something to do, he is not worthy of a business man's attention. There can be no bettor recommendation of a youug mau than his earnest pursuit of some sort of honorable aud profi table employment. The business man who gives no encouragement to such a youug man lacks the best elements of manhood and good fellow-citizenship. He may be evi dently guilty of gross wrong ; no matter if the boy iu search of work be clad iu rags, the biggest and busiest man in the section falls short of his duty, if he fails to give polite attention aud a word of en couragement to his houest ambi tion. Will you deny the houses of correction T The jails or peniten tiaries are filled annually with per sous whose lives might have been honorable and fortunate had they just a woid of encouragement at the proper time from the business man, upon whom tue.v looked with admiration aud respect. A boy is a strange aud restless animal, indeed, aud he is bound to do something; but if he curt get some work to do he will do some devilment. He becomes heart sick and discouraged, because, in pur- suit of employment, he h is been answered "No," with the emphasis of a frown by men whom he hope fully appealed to for aid. So many a loy has already felt the hot tears of dicappoiutmeut burn his cheeks as he bade adieu to his fond ambitions and set his face to ward the "Bad." It is cruel to blow up a boy's fondest hopes, and no human mau will do it. Speak kindly to the boys. Give them en couragement. Give them a pleas ant smile, instead of a frown ; and when they are found iu search of work encourage them to ierseverc. It will cost you nothing for doing this; aud if you fail to do this, it may cost the boy his honor, his life and break the heart of his dear mother. We dare say again, give the boys encouragement. lONt Stories. Salisbury Watchman. The Western Carolinian, of Hick ory, exposes the absurdities of a uew trick by one Hoover, to ex tract money from persons who tlo not watch closely for themselve. It is known as a Post Store, made up by contributions by those who become memlersof the organ ization. The ostensible object f the organization is to procure goods cheaper than can be bought of regular merchants. The real or true object is to put money in Mr. Hoover's pocket. We say to the readers go slow if any one comes around asking you to join in mak ing up funds to establish a "Post Store." There is something iu it, no doubt, but it is not for the poor man who trusts his money to the management of Hoover's scheme. No preparation could nave tuoue such a r Do tation aa Salvation OU has (In ho abort a tiiae) wiinout intrinsic merit of the highest order. It auuspain. rncesj cents a untie. Move the World.

This moving the , world is a very serious sort of bus- iiK Archimedes only asked for a place to fix his foicitiui, and ho would move the world; but the world went right on without any help from the mathem iticiau of Syracuse. In our youth, with the bright visioiM .ofliopo in all their golden colors before us, we imag ined we were quite up to the work of moving the world. Oue pro K)ses to do it in the law. He wil master his profession will go the sources of jurisprudence he will astound the woi Id by his learn ing, or he will move the world by his eloqueuce. Well, he begiu and chews the bitter cud of exnr rience awhile. It results in fludiuz that the world is hard to move and that many who were an intent as he, aud who had long Ik fore made the same resolution, had given up iu despair. The high ideal had to be sulordinate to tread mill work. Now aud then comes a man whose nature is so royal, aud whoso aims are so high, and whoto Mwcr of endurance is o grand, that he is able to move the world of living hearts which come nndcr his intluence, and men bless him for his work. But these are rare exceptions. The true thing for us to' do, in learu what we can do best, and bend our energies to that end and nothing more. Thus, if wo do not move the world, we shall do some good in it and leave it with a cousciousue&rthat it is uo worse for our having lived. There may be many others sources of satisfac tion, but few greater than this of having lived if not a brilliant life, a useful oue. The filial test of all things is use. Even that beauty which hns no ue, cau hardly be called beautiful. The Grand Army ltcpuhlic or ganization at the North is getting to bo a great nuisance to the coun try iu the way of demanding ieu sious from the iJovemmcnt and venting spite ou all people who do not agree with their exhorbitant demands. A telegr iiu from Wheel ing, West Virginia, says that the members of the Grand Army who participated in the demonstration iu that city hint week refuMl to pass under the (sirtrait of Presi dent Cleveland, susjcudcd from the Register olllce. The entire column made a detour aud drop led their colors in parsing the picture. The action caused con siderable excitement iu the city. There were over flro ' thousaud veterans iu line from West Virgin ia, western Pennsylvania and Ohio. That was the way the procession fellows wanted to spite Mr. Cleve land for vetoing some swindling Pension Hills pasted by the lat Congress. Charlotte Home Demo crat. A Woman DIcivcry.
