ilege of running their track through
her land, or rather her meadow.
The comiiiitBiouers awarded her the
sum of $500. This was considered
a very liberal allowance. The
company paid the amount into the
otlico ot tho clerk of the Superior
Court of Durham county. Mise
Teasley has persisiently declined to
receive it.

the road for sale to tho highest
bidder. '1 he sale was held, but
there were no bidders, and she now
lays claim to the whole road.

erty, remaining for a certain num
ber of years, shall be turned over to
the State University. The time
has nearly, or about, expired, and
the sum of $450 will be turned
over to the University. Miss Teaeley

CONGRESS AND CURRENCY,
The Subject One of Vital Importance to
Every Man.
The problem presented to Con
gress by tho President's call for
lreasury relief is siinplo enough.
We have $340,000,000 in green
backs and about $155,000,000 in
Treasury notes of 18'JO outstanding,
to say nothing of the silver certifi
cates. We have undertaken and by law
pledged onrselvcs to redeem all this
paper in gold or silver coin, nom
inally at the discretion of tho Sec
retary of the Treasury, but practi
cally at the' discretion of tho per
sons presenting the notes for re
demption. As our gold dollars sro
worth about twice as much as onr
silver dollars, everybody who pre
sents notes for redemption demands
gold.
1'ut we have another law which
requires the Treasury, a soon as
any of these notes are redeemed,
to pay them out again and keep
them in circulation. That is to say,
the Treasury mnst continue to pay
its debts without decreasing their
amount by a single dollar.
Meantime everybody who owes
taxos lo the Government is per
mitted to pay them in currency,
find this currency also mutt under
tho law be paid out again and kept
in circulation.
In brief, the Treasury, which
stands pledged to the continuously
repeated gold redemption of $50'J,
00(',000 ol re-issuable notes, gets no
gold at all in its revenues and has
lo source of gold supply except
the salo ot bonds.
There are just two ways out.
One of them is to stop reissuing
paper money onco redeemed in
gold or received in taxos. Tho
other is to provide in some way for
a gold supply at less cost that: is
now possible
The present Congress is indis
posed to adopt either of these
courses. Tho Houso is divided in
opinion, but is mainly committed
against any reduction of the enr
rency volume or any substitution
of bank notes for legal tenders.
The Senate as newly constituted is
in tho hands of tho free-silver men,
who do not want to provide for or
continue trold redumption, but de
sire instead to force the country to
a feontli Amoncan tree-silver basis
at 10 to 1 as speedily as possible.
With Congress in such a temper
it was hardly worth while for it to
surrender its holiday recess upon
pretense of desiring to provide for
Treasury recessitios New York
World.
A Jar Was Needed.
Wo were inclined to think on a
sicond reading of President Cleve
land s message to Congress on tho
Venezuelan boundary question that
he had been perhaps unnecessarily
pointed in his declaration that the
United States might use force to
prevent Great Uritian from taking
from Venezuela more territory than
the proposed commission should
allot. It occurred to us that the
Piesidcnt might ;'ust as well have
recommended the appointment ot
the commission and left to Con
gress the making of the threat of
war.
But in connection with this
branch of the tubject it is well to
recall that wo have tor years, in
correspondence with her Majesty's
ministers, urged on the govern
ment of Great Britain that tho
question was one that em'uently
belonged to arbitration to determine
and settle; that we lelt great con
cern that this should be done, and
that we looked with disfavor on
any attempt to settle tba dispute
in any other way. England has
been graciously pleaaed to receive
all our recom mondations, and to
give to them about the same con
sideration she would a protest from
the king of Ashantee. We have
had a deal for her ear now and
then about the Monroe doctrine,
but it'is in evidence that tho great
mass of the English people who
take an interest iu such matters
had only the slightest appreciation
of the fact that it was, is Goldwin
Smith, the eminent Canadian 6ays,
"not a manifesto of American ag
grandizement, but a charter of in
dependence for this continent."
The undoubted tact that that doc
trino could mean anything to Eng
laud did not once cross the minds
of tho English people.
It was necessary that such dense
ignorance of tho feeling of the
Americ&n people in connection
with the extension of the bounds
ries of foreign colonies on this con
tinent should bo abolished. We
have the record ot all these years
to provg that that ignorance could
not be removed .by the involved
compliments of diplomacy. The
day lor line words was past, Eng
land needed a jar, an assault to
bring her to a contemplation of
the exact situ ttion. Nothing furth
er is needed to prove this than
Lord Salisbury's assertion that the
Monroe Doctrine is not in inter
national law. He now knows that
we do not c ire whether it is or not ;
ana he knows, and the whole Ens
lish people know, that hereafter
the Monroe Doctrine tu any ex
tension we may make cf its provi
sions mMt be taken into serious ac
count. That Presideut Cleveland
has accomplished this much is to
say that he has accomplished more
in that tine than all the presidents
and their secretaries for tho last 25
years. Asheville Citizen.
C. F. & Y. V. RAILWAY,
Circular to the A, B and C Bondholders
Strongly Opposes Dismemberment
ef the System.
Tho Keorganization Committee
have issued the following circular:
The result of the meeting of the
bondholders on December 23d de
vclopcd the fact that the propoei
tion of tho New York committee,
even if it could be carried out,
which it doubtful, does not gi'e so
much to tho holders of A bonds as
does tho plan proposed by the Bal
timore committee and involves prac
tically a sacrifice of the B and C
bonds, which is not warrantod by
the situation.
Nothing was decided at the meet
ing except that the .New York Com
mittec, which had purchased a small
majority of tho A bonds, would not
concur in the plan of the Baltimore
Committee, but this action on their
part had long been forsecn and
provided against.
The plan of the Bt!limoro Com
mittee has been accepted by more
than a rnaiority ot the total out
standing bonds of tho Company,
and many bondholders (including
some A bondholders) who were in
doubt as to their position before
the meeting have already signed the
new agreement.
Bondholders who have not signed
the new agreement are urged to
call at tho office of the Secretary,
Mr. Frank T. Kcdwood, 208 East
German street, (or any other mem
ber of tho Committee,) and sign at
onco. Tho Coin m itteo have no
doubt as to tho final result, and in
this opinion they are sustained by
their counsel, Messrs. Cowon, Cross
& Bond.
If bondholders will come forward
at onco and sign the agreement, the
Committee feol sure that thoy can
prcservo tho property and restore
its valuo. This Committee has
been acting in the interest of all
tho bandholders for the purpose of
speculating it, tho bonds. B and C
bondholders are advised not to sell
thpir bonds at the prices which have
been ottered by the Now lork
Committee, as they will be made
much more valuable under the
Baltimore plan. There can be no
reasonable doubt but that this road
can easily earn fixed chaiges under
the plan proposed bv the Baltimore
Committee, and, after somo neces
sary improvements in its condition,
pay dividends on its Preferred
Stock, as the net earnings of tho
road in tho past six months demon
strate. Tho statements which were
made at the meeting should con
vince every bondholder of tho value
of this property if reorganized and
tho control vested in the owners of
the bonds as provided for.

How Many Wives Are Thus?
Tho good wife is always eood.
Nothing puts hor out. She may
have neuralgia, a tipsy cook and
twins who always cry at the same
time, but she never looks cro68 or
Bpeaks hastily, and she always sees
that dinner is ready at the proper
moment. The children may have
mumps, chicken pox and incases.
and tho plumbers may have stopped
tne uroton water because they are i
fixing the mnin pipe; the baker,
butcher and milk man may present
their little bills with exasperating
frequency and with reproachful re
marks appended, and the icemen
may have "struck," but when hus

WHAT CHRISTMAS MEANS.
"Peace on Earth, Good Will to Men," is
the Boen it Brings to Mankind.
What profound emotions of grat
itude should swell up in every hu
man heart at the mention of this
now well-nigh universal holiday !
But it is to be feared that the vast
majority of thoso who observe it
have no trne conception of its true
meaning. Even many of those
whose idea of it is that it is a time
to bestow and receive gifts do not
fully comprehend what is meant by
this hallowed and common custom.
Christmas trot only commemo
rates the birth of Christ, who gave
His life as a ransom for a hinful
world, hut typifies the inellable
gift of God, who "so loved tho
world that lie gave His only lie
gotten 8on, that whosoever believ
eth in Him should not perish but
have everlasting life."
Paul tells ua that salvation "is
the gift'of God," from whom, as
James says, is "every good and per
fect gift." Paul also declares in
writing to the Ephesians that when
Christ ascended upon high Ue"led
captivity captive and gave gifts
unto men." What are somo of
these gifts which are thns typified
and intended to bo commemorated
by tho custom of gift-giving in
Christmas tide f "Peace on earth,
good will to men," is the boon it
brings to mankind us a whole.
Christmaa, as a commemoration
ot the birth of Christ, without ref
erence to His sacrificial atonement,
would bo meaningless. True, Ho
taught grand Ioshoiib of love and
dutr. and of self sacrifice for tho
good of others, but to tho sublime
climax of all these teachings was
His sufferings and death ou tho
cross on account of tho sins of man
kind. This has been sptly called
tho tragedy of tho wo'M a trag
edy in wuicii every r.u:: vn uau i.rw
an interest, because it , ' - ' for
human wants a balm in Uikuu, a
fountain for nncleanness, rodump
lion from sin, and a joy forever.
Theso personal and spiritual gifts
are not tho only advantages that
have been conferred upon mankind
by tho coming of Him whoso birth
is celebrated at unristmas. ine
world as a wholo has had an uplift
in direct ratio as the lessons ot His
life and death have been revealed
to it. Genuine and helpful civili
zation waits on Christianity.
The sien of tho tripplo croes is
not, as Ingereoll in his book makes
it, tho emblem of superstition, hate
and cruelty, which he transposes to
telegraph poles labeled "for tho use
of man," but the cross, typifying
Christianity, ever precedes enhght
enment, invention and all that tends
to human progress and human Hap
piness. The latter cartoon, repre
senting the Christian church as a
woman carrying tho cross and tho
bright light of Christian truth, and
thus penetrating tho dark resources
ot ignorance, tyranny and supersti
tion, which are dispelled before her,
while the emblenio of civilization,
the railroad train, the telegraph, the
church, the school-house and the
busy city follow her, this cartoon
tells a truthful story of human pro
gress. The most progressive, most
enlightened, intelligent and strong
est nations of to-day, with the most
ot happiness among their people,
are the Christian nations. How
important, then, is it that in com
memorating Christmas we should
hive a true conception of what it
means! J. M.

The Genuine Merit
Of Hood's Sarsaparilla wins friends
wherever it is fairly and honestly
tried. To have perfect health, yon
must have pure blood, and the best
way to have pure blood is to take
Hood's Sarsaparilla, the best blood
purifier and strength builder. It
expels all taint of scrofula, salt
rheum and all other humors, and
at the same time builds up the
whole system.

The Rev. R. A. White, of Chi

of last year.
The secret of a speedy cure in
sickness lies in selecting the proper
remedy and this is difficult to do

then always aafe to take Simmons

The Beautiful City.
'"And the street ot the city was
pure gold."
Paris is said to be finer than any
other city in the world bnt the
streeti of Paris are n A paved with
gold. Montreal is situated on the
bank of the beautiful St. Lawrence
river, and they have an abundance
of water thcre but it is not "the
water of life." The inhabitants of
Montreal die as do the people else
where. Brooklyn has ucen called
"the city of churches" but in
Brooklyn may still be found "the
fearful and the unbelieving and the
abominable and murderers and
whoremongers and drunkards and
liars." California is a wonderfnl
fruit country bnt in California
they have no trees "which bear
twelve manner ot frnit," and the
leaves of which trees "are for the
healing of tho nations."
This city of which wo speak, this
golden city of lhht and life and
love, is our F'atl er'e home on high,
where Jesus has gone to prepare a
place for his faithful followers.
This is that city "which hath foun
dations, whose buildet and maker
is God." This is that city which
shall never bo consumed by fire,
nor swept away by storm and flood,
nor wrecked by earthquake, for it
is that "building ot God, eternal in
the heavens."
It is a city of light. "And there
shall bo no night there; and they
need no candle, neither light of tho
sun ; for the Lord God giveth them
light." "Gcd is light," and the
saved shall walk and sinir and wor
ship, develop and unfold and ex
pand iu tho light of the Lord for
ever and ever. No gloomy days
nor stormy niirhts in that city. Tho
darkness that comes from ignorance
and sin will not be found there.
They have the fullness of "the ligh:
of the knowledge of tho glory of
God in the faco of Jesus Christ."
It is a city ot life. "And there
shall bo no more death." Jesus,
tho Prince of life, reigns in that
city. I toll you, it is a city ot life.
They have a river ol water of life,
and trees of life, and cloud less skies
and "fullness ot joy and pleasure
forever nioro." No sickness in
that land of lifo. No feeble, totter
ing, unsteady stops ; no exhausted,
shattered, painful nerves; uot sal
low, furrowed facos ; no dim 'and
languid eyes; but tho bloom and
glow and joyous thrill of an eternal,
inexhaustible youth. In that city
of lifo no poet will ever have occa
sion to mournfully exclaim :
"O world ! so few the years wo live
Would that the lifo which thou
dost give
Were life indeed !"
It is a city of love. By this I
mean that tho happy inhabitants all
love each other. No bitter, sour,
6elfi6h souis there no, not one.
What delightful society 1 Every
one whom you meet will be a friend,
a brother, a sister. A city in which
all the happy inhabitants love each
other ;-oh 1 who ever hoard of such
a city in this world ?
"And the street of the city was
pure gold." This text means some
thing, it means more than some
think: When you go to a strange
city and find the streets full of dirt
and filth, mud and wator, and old
worn out Bhoes and broken bricks,
you at once eay to yourself that the
inhabitants ot this city waet bo a
filthy set, eke they would put things
in better condition. It is perfectly
natural for a hog to enjoy the mnd
holo. You see the point? the
people and the place are alike.
"And the street of the city was
pure gold," proves this much : That
as he7en is a pure, clean place, the
peop'e who go there must bo pure
and clean, and so the Book teaches
that nothing unclean shall ever
como to that glorious city of light
and life and lore, whose streets are
pure gold. None but tho "pure
in heart" shall ever walk the streets
of "pure gold."
Rev. Geo. D. Herman.
Dr. Shields, an eminent physician
of Tennessee, says: "I regard
Ayer's Sarsaparilla as the best blood
medicine on earth, and I know of
many wonderful cures effected by
its use." Physicians all over the
land have niado similar statements.
Those persons, who have hereto
fore so severely denounced Cleve
land for "belonging' to England,"
must now think that he is not a yery
humble or obedient slave to that
country.

And still the etory as to Judge
ltobmson s cranky doings in me
Western part of the State grows.
Some of the rude and ngly things
this judicial clown did and said
would staggsr human credulity wcro
they not substantiated by the very
best authority. It is indeed strango
that any man in a public position,
to say nothing of one wearing the
judicial ermine, should so far forget
himself and his position as to be
guilty of tl em. The following from
the Franklin Press adds another
chapter to the story :
"We were awere of the unprece
dented conduct of Judge Robinson
while on the bench in this end of
the circuit, burl refiianed from the
publication of artf-tricturec, pre
ferring to let the mat tor pass in
pity and through respect to the
office. The report published by the
Rutherfordton Democrat does not
contain one-half of the strange
doings of the Judge, as can be veri
fied ty the lawyers, sheriffs and
citizens of Jackson, Macon, Clay,
Cherokee, Graham and Swain j
counties. We are told that his
conduct at Graham conrt was not a
circumstance to what it was at Swain
conrt, where we learn that he flatly
disputed the word of lawyers and
called them liars and swore profane
oaths while sitting on tho bench in
open court. His abuse of Sheriff
Roano at Macon court was disgust
ing and a shame, and we also learn
that the sumo was the case in ad
joining counties. Not only this but
witnesses were scolded and bemean
ed in a very rudo and uncivil man
nor. Also the harmless citizen who
happened to enter the court room
with creaking shoes was scolded and
abused as though he was guilty of
some mean, low, degrading offense.
The Judge left this part of the cir
cuit without any friends among the
lawyeara, and his conduct disguetcd
people so much that they want no
more fusion judges around this
circuit unless they behave better
than this one." News and Ob

Tho new thirty-tliousand-spindle
cotton mill about to open in Geor
gia is a result of increasing demand
for American cottons at home and
abroad. Tho Southern mills are
generally making only tho lower
grades of cotton clothes a? yet, and
it is noi iiKeiy id hi uiey win maae
large quantities of the finest goods
for years to come. Their trade and
their profits are, however, growing
in a way that emphasizes the evi
dence offered by the condition of
the New England mills in support
of the theory that with unobstruct
ed trade the nimble penny pays
better than the protected pound un
der a policy of obstruction.

Tho Wi'son Advance is respon
sible for the following:
"Ourvoung friend, Uarry Webb,
-aa held np by a ccnple of women
moonshiners near Wilkesbcro the
othor day. He was driving along
the road when suddenly tte com
mand "Hak" was given, backed
up by the presentation of two Win
chester riflee. To say that llarrj
pulled in hi horses with a jerk is
ptiiting it mild. He just began to
explain to those women folks that
he was on the peaceful errand of
an innocent drnmmcr trying to sell
a bill of snuff. He nys one of the
parties examined his papers while
the other kept hirn covered. When
all was made satisfactory he was
ordered to drive on and he
drove."
Saystho lio?W Globe : Joseph
Chamberlain, in a recent speech in
London, said the future of the Brit
ish empire hangs on a thread bo
slender that a breath may sever it.
It is very donbtlul if England can
long continuo to hold under one
central government such widely
sundered, heterogeneous countries
as Canada, Australia, India and
Southern Africa.
