The approaching Fourth of July will be more generally celebrated throughout our great country than has been the case before for Sev eral decades. The events of this year have fanned the smouldering fires of patriotism into burning flame, and the people are aroused and united in the present conflict against a foreign enemy. During a long reign of peace the people gradually became in different to patriotic sentiment, and the national holiday commem orating the political birth of this great Republic had almost been lost sight of. But now a call to arms has been sounded to protect the honor of our country against a foreign foe, and from Maine to California, from the Lakes to the Gulf, the people are rallying to the support of the Government. Conspicuous in the present war, as in that 'great struggle in the Revolution of 1776, is the State of North Carolina. She is always ready to do her duty, and gives freely of her lives and resources to uphold the Nation's honor. As shown at Cardenas, her sons are found at the front, and their cour age never falters when duty calls. In the early history of our Government, North Carolina holds a prominent and honorable place. .As one of the original thirteen States, she was first and foremost in resenting the oppression con stantly growing more intolerable under the reign of King George III, and rendered much assistance and encouragement to her sister States of the colony. Although the question of independence of British rule had been discussed in the States for some time, it remained for North Carolina to issue the first declaration of inde pendence, which occured in 1775 On account ot the hope of the General Congress that reconcilia tion might yet be effected the reso lutions were not acted upon by that body. But a little more than a year later, July 4th, 1776, having arrived at the conclusion that the wrongs of which they complained would not be remedied by the mother country, the entire colony of thirteen States, through their representatives in the General Congress at Philadelphia, pro claimed their National Independ ence. On the immortal document the State of North Carolina is represented in the names of Wm Hooper, Joseph Hewes, and John renn, eminent patriots in those stirring times. iNotwitnstanaing the grave im portance of the.matter, this action was received everywhere with 1 11 . great rejoicings, Dens Deing rung, horns and drums were sounded, and the people manifested their approval in a tumultous demon stration. Copies of the declaration were sent to all the thirteen States, and 'when it reached North Carolina history states that "Harnett read it to an immense public gathering m Halifax, and the crowd took him on their shoulders and carried him round the square amid shouts." uurmg ine long ana weary years oi war mat tollowed, this State was ever at the front in patriotic devotion to the country and rendered every possible assist ance in achieving a final victory. it is perhaps unnecessary to recall to mind the. heroic deeds of the patriotic sons at the battle of Kings Mountain and elsewhere i ney are events in history well : known to every bright school boy T ' f .11 .1 r . iu view oi an mese tacts it is peculiarly fitting that the people of North Carolina in this year 189a, when the people of the coun try, from center to circumference. are stirred with the inborn patriot ism of every true American, should revive the ancient and noble cus tom . of celebrating the greatest political National holiday, the Fourth of July, which reminds us of the heritage left to us bv our forefathers. As in 1776, so in 1898 we are one country. AH sectional dinerences are at an end. Such are the beneficial effects of the - present conflict with a foreign foe Our national life is harmonized as never, before.

Arriving at the summit of Burke- moot about noon, the ladies were before long comfortably . seated upon improvised benches 7neatn "a brotherhood of venerable trees," and with appetites sharpened by the mountain breeze did ample justice to a bountiful and templing dinner.

Th Administration Considering idlw ttillfv r Another Beaalsition for Vol unteer Troops How Shall the Philip pines he Governed? Hawaiian Annexa tion Resolution Mow in the Senate. From Oar Regular Correspondent. Washington, D. O., June 20. At last General Shatters army is in Cuba, and uuless somebody at the Washington end gets rattled over the reported Mailing of a Spanish fleet from Cadiz, bound in the direction ot uuoa, anu issues orders that will prevent, this Is likely to be a hot week in the vifiinitv of Santiago. The first fleet of transports is due at Manila a : - v todav, and Dewey is not likely to wait for Gen. Merritt, who is just about readv to start from Ban Francisco with the third and last fleet of transports, before taking Manila. It i9 semi officially announced that at the last Cabinet meeting it was decided that more troops would be needed, and that another call for volunteers would be issued shortly, probably this week. It would seem that more use shouia be made of the troops we already have before askine more men to volunteer. Although Secretary Alger has positively denied the story that owin? to Quarrels between him self and Gen. Miles, who is now in Wasbiueton the latter had been virtually deposed from the com maud of the armr. the talK of friction between them continues, and even goes so far as to say that Mr. McKiuley intends directing the movements of the army him self. The change of plan by which Gen. Miles is to go to Porto Rico in command of the invading army uow being prepared for that expe dition is said to have beeu caused by this disagreement, and to have been the proposition of Gen. Miles himself, who preferred being responsible lor one army over which he would have absolute con trol to beiug held responsible for the movements of all our troops and being hampered -by civilian control. It is aunounced that the invasion of Porto Rico is to take place before the Spanish fleet alleged to have sailed from Cadiz can get to Porto Rico. If the reported starting of the Spanish fleet results in hurrying up things a little, it Will beau almighty good thing. Similar reports in the past nave resuitea in hanging up things. While members of the adminis tration profess to believe that the insurgeuts in the Philippines are acting in accordance with an agree ment made with Admiral Dewey, it is well known that they are more or less worried over the news announcing the declaration of an independent government bv the Philippine insurgents. No official will say what are to be the ruin tions 01 uen. Merritt, who is to command the army sent to the Philippines as well as be military governor of the islauds, with the insurgents, it oegins to iook as though there might be more seri ous trouble in those islands than whipping the Spaniards who are . 1. m 1 1 - iuero. jme auminisirarion was certainly not expecting the insur geuts to set up an independent government when instructions were prepared for the militarv government, to be established by vjeu. merrm, 10 coiiect tariii amies , a & . 1 1 . - rm on importations to the islands. Although there are about thirty senators who are opposed to the adoption of the Hawaiian annexa non resolution, which went through the House last week by so large a vote that the Czar was compelled to keep his room, under piea of sickness, lor several days, and which is now the unfinished business" of the Seuate, it is not believed, even bv themselves, that they can prevent a vote being reached and the resolution adopted uy tue oenate. ic uas oeen decid- cu luat IUB UUUOSUlOn BUOU U UO all tl,o f.llrin An.. A ' also that Congress shall not be allowed to adionrn until th cn lutiou is voted upon. This brings" it down to a question of the endur ance of the opponents of annexa tion, should they decide to fight to the last ditch: but it is' con sidered likely that they will allow a vote to be taken in the course of a week or two one very close observer of things legislative is so coufident of this that he has wagered the cost of an elegant dinner for eight gentlemen that the vote will le taken before the am 01 ouiy. xne wuoie power of the administration is being used to bring about a vote. jx miger proporuonate numoer , of Democrats m the Seuate will vote for the resolution than in the House, where 18 voted for it, and a few who favored annexation refrained from voting in deference to the large party majority against it.
