W e invite all who need anything in their; line to give them a ca'l. The most singular part about the election is, that everybody seems in a good humor. The successful party are, of course, jubilant but not at all overbearing, while the defeated take matters in the most graceful style. Glad to see this. It is the right spirit. The election news is about all in and the country is safe. There is great cause of rejoicing among the, people all over the land, for only about one half of the candidates were elected; and we see by the papers that in one district in Rhode Island none we're elected. Hurrah for the people One of the congressmen elect f ir Ohio has a rather odd name it seems He has been spoken of as Th-nnas L. Johnson but it seems that bis parents in nau-ing him saved people from committing the ugly violation of the name "Thomas," by naming him just 'Tom," dry so. It is a name with a course sound but better than Thomas breviated. a . Reduced Kates to Durham.

Dr. Watkins of this city deliver ed a most highly interesting and in structive lecture on the Congo Free States of Africa or a Foreign Mission field.

There are instances in which per sons having failed to accomplish busi ness success in North Carolina, have gone elsewhere and succeeded, but the cause is to be found, more fre quently in the change of the habits, the business habits, of the person, than in the advantages possessed by the country removed to, in soil and climate over his own State. Some young men have gone from Raleigh it may be, and made something by the move, bul the cause of their suc cess is that they have, in their new home, just gone to work and have adopted proper economic business habits. If they had done this at their old home, success would have come to them j ust the same. It is hard to find a grander climate, or a healthier country than we have right here in and around Raleigh. We knew, years ago, two young men, (brothers) who went to Texas and looked around for something to do till their money was all gone, and they among entire strangers were forced to take hold of anything to keep from starving. In desperation they tied to the country and hired themselves to a farmer at $12 a month and their board; and when the bargain was made, these boys felt that a great weight was lift ed from them, that a great deliver ance had been accomplished. They realized real joy in the reflection that they had a shelter and food, and they we,nt to work as they had never done before. The farmer, who was a cat tle raiser also, soon found that they were valuable to him. In two. years they went into the cattle business in a small way and are now well to do. If they had remamel in North Carolina and had gone to work with that same energy and starvation hur ry with which they served that far mer, and had exercised that same persevering, pushing energy and quick active judgment, they would be richer and happier at home in their native State today. These young men were clerks in North Carolina and they spent their ' mat tcui iii tue towns oi xeiUH, look ing for clerkships; but when sUrva tion and despair drove them to the country, they were ready for any menial position, bo they could get bread and shelter. Go west or north and you will find men of intelligence and some means filling positions that you would scorn to fill. And if you do go west and carry with you your eastern notions cf proper occupation for a gentleman of your cloth and do not flee from them as my friends in Texas did, you will come back (if you can) a poorer if not a wiser man than when you left. No, no, you need not go west, just go to work herewith the same energy and push that is necessary to accomplish success there and you will achieve it here. The Raleigh Land and Improve ment Company. We chronicle with pleasure the or ganization of this company. We be hove it is the beginning of what will prove to be a movement which will place our city in the very front rack of Southern progressive cities. There is no reason why tnis shall not be so. The company is composed of some of our most successf ul and progressive citizens, and the property they take hold of is the very best about the city. The president of the organiza tion is Hon. A. A. Thompson, mayor of Raleigh; vice president, Cornelius B. Edwards, Esq ; secretary and treasurer, W. N. Jones; attorney, Ernest Haywood. The directors and other officers are made up of such men as R. S. Pullen. J. A. Jones, C. G. Latte, J. G. Brown, W. H. Pace, E. G. Harrell, J. N. Holding, F. W. Habel, Josephus Daniels, N. B. Broughton and W. R. Womble. These gentlemen as will be seen are some of our most level headed and progress ive business men, and we predict they will achieve the very best results for themselves as well as the city of Ral eigh. They have purchased and will de velop first the Bache or Seawell prop erty in northeast Raleigh, and one or two other tracts contiguous to the Bache property. These lands will be between Oakwood and New Berne avenues, and are intersected by Eden- ton, Jones and Lane streets running east and west and also by streets run ning north and south. Col. A. W. Shaffer has been 6ur veying the lands mentioned for two or three weeks, and maps are now being made showing the lots, streets, &c, of the property. Lots will be placed upon the market at once and we pre dict that they will find a ready sale. Let the good work go forward. We call attention to the advertise ment of Messrs. J. 8.

The difficult tbiug is to keep the nobility of on's nature unptr- verted among the petty and ignoble. No man can ever lift hiuiself an inch by thinking about himself. A convict never hurries.
