JlIOKORY PRESS: DECEMBER 19. 1895. tm and iforolinfcm PrBLisHED Evert Tbpmdat.bt fHE HiGKORY PRINTING COMPANY. Hickory, 2Sortn Carolina. HAY'S TREATY D N JOHN JAY." On the 19th instant the New- York Chamber of Commerce is to celebrate by a banquet at Del- monico's "One hundred years of American Commerce," dating- from the treaty of John Jay in 1795. No treaty, or act of Con gress was ever adopted that cre ated anything like such a storm of indignation as did Jay's treaty .when made public in 1796. Says the Mail and Express: In Philadelphia an effier of Jay was placed in the pillory, guillotined, the clothes fired and the body blown up with gunpow der: He was burned in effigy here on our Bowery, while Alex ander Hamilton, attempting to defend him from the rostrum as he had already done in print as "Camillus was cut with a vollev of stones and retreated, saying, "If you use 'such striking argu merits, I must retire. In Boston and in Savannah Jav was de- 90 nounced and villified. The news paper press teemed with the most coarse and spiteful attacks. Jay was accused of having been corrupted by British gold. "Come up to my price and I will sell you my country" was put in the mouth of a New York effigy. In Charles ton the treaty was solemnly burned by the hangman. At one dinner a toast was drunk, "A per petual harvest to America: but dipt wings, lame legs and an emp ty crop to all Jays." The Order of the Cincinnati at New Castle expressed the hope that Jay "might enjoy all the pleasures of purgatory." The Frenchmen at New York, celebrating the anni versary of their republic, gave a toast, "The Republic of America: May she never mistake Jay-birds for eagles." On Mr. Jay's door step was chalked the comprehen sive anathema: "Damn John Jay! Damn every one that won't damn John Jay! ! Damn every one that won't put lights" in his windows and sit up all night damning John Jay!l!" The Knoxville Tribune says: John Jay had resigned the Chief Justiceship of the United States and was sent by President "Washington as a special envoy to negotiate a settlement between the United States and Great Brit ain. Great Britain was then en forcing rigidly her famous Or ders in Council. Hundreds of American vessels had been seized and American citizens captured and carried off as British sub jects, the vessels condemned and the cargoes confiscated and Great Britain continued to hold posses sion of the Westers frontier posts contrary to the terms of treaty of peace recognizing the United States. These posts controlled the navigation of the Mississippi river. Congress retaliated in 1794 by proclaiming an embargo against British ships. A resolution was moved to sequester all moneys due to British creditors and ap ply them to indemnifying ship owners, and on April 21, 1794, a resolution was moved to suspend all commercial intercourse with Great Britain until the Western posts should be given up, and adequate indemnity paid for in juries to American commerce in violation of the rights of neutrals. Judga Jay had been elected Governor of New York only a short time before the treaty was made public, but it killed him po litically. He was a man of great ability and spotless integrity. J. C. Martin's large and new lineo over coats are now exhibited at the White Front. 47tf "KNOW THYSELF." "An Ounce of Prevention 18 Worth a Pound of Cure." These two mottoes have been the guide and life work of the distinguished Dr. Hartman, President of the Surgi cal Hotel. He has written more to teach the -people how to prevent dis ease than any other living writer. He says the month of December is the most dangerous f the year. In this month cold weather begins. Colds, coughs, sore throat and hoarseness, all of which are sure to set up chronic catarrh or consumption, are acauired in this month more than any other. Thousands upon thousands becrin their downward road from health to disease and death in this month. The doctor has had a life-long ex perience with Pe-ru-na in the preven tion of these affections. Not only has he prescribed it for a vast multitude of people, but this remedy has been his constant shield through his many years of travel and active profession. A bottle of Pe-ru-na, rightly used in the family at this season, is of value untold. Pe-ru-na cures catarrh, cures coldsv cures coughs, cures la grippe, cures all diseases due to catarrhal con gestions of the mucus membranes, lin iug the head, throat, bronchial tubes, lungs, stomach, kidneys and pelvic organs. xjt. xiaruuan s latest dook on ca 1 TT J. 1 i a . . tarrh and diseases of winter will be sent free for a time by the The Pe-ru- na Drug Manufacturing Comnanv of Columbus, Ohio. A. mf - PROBABLY INSANE. The nan Mho Fired a Pistol In the French Chamber of Deputies. Paris, Dec. 7. The police have searched the lodings of Gilbert Lenoir, the man who fired a revolver yester day in the Chamber of Deputies, and have found there some anarchistic literature, but the ereneral opinion is that the prisoner is insane. DON'T BE TOO CONFIDENT. That's What Chairman Carter Says to the Republican Party. Washington, Dec. 9. Senator Elkins gave a dinner to a number of members of the Republican national committee and other prominent poli ticians of the party. While no particular object was stated for the gathering, it is known that the meeting developed into a discussion of party politics and what was best to be done during the next campaign, or. rather, preliminary to the campaign. During a discussion of party meas ures Chairman Carter took occasion to say that he did not think it well for the Republicans to be too confident. Although it was apparent that victory was in the air, he said that there were reasons why it was not well to be optimistic to a degree of carelessness. He thought the grave questions before the country might well cause the Republicans to pause and reflect. The President had placed himself squarely in favor of retiring the credit money of the country. It was possible that the financial centers of the country agreed with him. There was no doubt that a course of that kind, if pursued, would make populistic votes. Mr Carter called attention to what he styled the remarkable growth of the Populist vote. He said that it had increased 240 per cent during the past three years. The great growth had not been developed in the national legislature. as there were fewer populists in the house now than in the Fifty-second Congres, but the vote in the different elections showed a populistic increase. which it was well for the Republicans to take into consideration! Mr Carter was charged with being a pessimist, and different member of the committee said that with a platform enunciating straight Republican principles there could be no doubt of victory with any of the excellent men who were mantioned for the nomina tion to head the ticket. fAshville Citizen.

About two hours afterwards, she was seized with violent pains and finger began to swell. She suffered the same as a person who had been snake bitten, and a doctor worked with her all night. The supposition is that it was a poisoned arrow and had retained the poison through all these years.

The convention of officers of the Re formed churches in Davidson county was held in the hall of the Knights of Honor in Lexington, Nov. 23d.. More than fifty men present, among them three ministers of the gospel. Revs. Hedrick, Mcnairy and Leonard. The attendance was unexpectedly large, showing commendable interest in the welfare of the church. A proposition was made to detach Calvary from the Upper Davidson charge and Emanuel from the Lower Davidson charge, and unite these two churches with Heidelberg church of Thomasville, thus making a new charge. The discussion was interest ing, and the subject was viewed from ali standpoints. It was finally decided that to take Emmanuel from the Low er Davidson charge at the present time would be a positive infury to the work in that charge, which is now go ing forward" so well. It was felt by all that this would have been the Jogical course to pursue if this had been the proper time. v No other plan of rearrangement seem ed to receive favorable consideration; this wa3 due to the fact that any other arrangement would make the salaries insufficient to command the services of good pastors. As a last resort, in order to relieve the pressure of work in the Upper Da vidson charge and to give Thomasville close pastoral oversight, classis was asked to overture the Board of Home Missions to enroll Burlington as a mission, and commission the same man for Burlington and Thomasville. In this way both of these places would have good attention, and the work, though extensive, would not be too great for one man. It is hoped that the Board may see its way clear to car ry out this plan. The convention, though unable to agree upon a plan of reconstruction at the present time, was not in vain. Good results must follow such a meet ing of brethren. This convention has paved the way for another in the fu ture when all things will be more fa vorable. Corinthian. The Discovery Saved His Ufe.
