TATE AT GETTYSBURG.
THE COLONEL MARKED THE POSI
TIONS OP NORTH CAROLINA TROOPS.
Raleigh Neurs Observer,
Colonel S. Mcb. Tate returned yes
terday from Gettysburg battletield
where he has been since Thursday last
to assist in locating the positions gain
ed by North Carolina troops during
tne memoraDie Dattie 01 July, imd
Colonel Tate was accompanied by
Col. Thomas S. Keaan, of this city, also
by Gen. W. Gaston Lewis, who went
on his way to his home in G'oldsboro.
These three gentlemen, together
witn the three National Commissioners
Col. J. B. Bachelder, of Massachusetts,
Col. Nicholson, of Pennsylvania, and
Major Robbins, of North Carolina,
were the only ones engaged upon the
work in hand.
"It was a matter of love with us who
went from this State," said the Colonel
in the Yarborough House yesterday,
. "I have been there two or three times
for the purpose of trying to maintain
for the soldiers of this State the credit
that is due them. Up to, say three
years ago the so-called rebel positions
had received no attention while, on
the other hand, there was a forest of
monuments, most beautiful, to mark
the Union line of battle."
"People came from the world over,
and the first question that came to
them wa6: 'What were you Union men
shooting at ! r For there was nothing in
sight except an old field against an
army of monuments. Then it was that
the esprit de corps was aroused in the
yankee breast and they reasoned among
themselves thus: 'Let us mark out the
host that was against us.' Thus was
this work of justice .o the South and to
history set on foot.
"Did you not have some trouble af
ter all this lapse of time in picking out
spots accurately
"Well, no; Gettysburg is a, curiousJy
marked field, not so Hat as it impressed
me during the war: It settling upon
one point, 1 found that we had pretty
surely come certainly within ten feet
of it. A Mr. Culp, a German farmer
who owns a pirt I the battle ground
was with us at the time, all of U3 being
on his place. Said I, 'Mr. Culp, was
that fence standing there at the time
of the battle?'
'Yes,' said he, 'it is the same fence.'
"Well, was not there a clump of ap
pie trees hear here."
"Yes,' he replied, with a hearty
laugh, 'but the bullets in them caused
them to die, and I had them cut down:
there is the spot.' 1
"I: remember those apple trees, be
cause I had sat down unaer one 01
theui during one part of the fight.
Then I found the point I sought with
out difficulty.
"How about the position Colonel,
sained bv your regiment on Cemetery
Heights?"
"VVe marked that, too, ana the stake
is there fast for the site of the monu
ment that will make the story of those
men's valor imperishable." ' ,
"You want to know about; that nag
No I i did noti take It personally from
the man who was shot down while car
rying It; I should "not have disgraced
niy men by refusing them the honor.
But they took it up one by one a?
each one fell until it was rescued and
brought back to me. It was my men
who did it," the Colonel added with a
mingled ring of modesty as to himself
and pride as to. his brave fellows.
"Yes, they brought it back, and 1
kept it until three weeks ago,- when I
sent it to Christian Reid, at Salisbury.
The Salisbury Military Company had
already asked me for it, but I could not
think of sending it to them.". -
"Do you not think it belongs in the
Historical Library?"
"Yes, but Christian Reid said I could
uot refuse her and these were the cir
cumstance?: She was the7 daughter,
Frances, of old Judge DavidS. Cald
well, and afterward married Col. Cbas,
Fisher. She and the Colonel's sis'er,
Christine Fisher, made that flag out of
an old blue silk Indian shawl that be
longed to the mother of Frances. The
needle work was minute, elaborate,
exquisite, and it was a gem among all
the army flags. Now she has it, tat
tered as it is with bullet hole?, but one
strange thing about it, it was tUe coat
of arms which was worked so richly in
embroidery was not scratched, and the
legend is plain and unharmed (-upon it
now, 'Deeds, not Words.', 0
"Your trip wa an agreeable one,
was it not?"
"Ye?; we bad every courtesy. shown
us, both by the officers of the Commis
sion, as well as by the others. There
are now there 8,600 Pennsylvania
troops encamped, and last Saturday
Governor PatUson with staff and a
troep of cavalry came in, looking like
real soldiers, dusty after a tide of rifty
two miles from Harrisbur to Gettys
burg. We received distinguished con
sideration from the Governor, and
came away happy."
)svir,LB,
"Has Gettysburg changed much ?"
"Ye?; ic has prospered and is a snug
little tqwn of 3,000. The difference
between that and Florida is that qne
Jive3 on dead Yankees and the other on
live ones."
"Do the National Commissioners live
there?"1
"Yes, they will probably be at work
for. five years yet at $10-a day, accord
ing to trie latest appropriation. This
was the ehange made after Col. Bach
elder had sold the plans he made just
after the war to th government for
$50,000, and was thought- to be the
cheapest way out."
"The gentlemen engaged are eharm
ing men and seem to be animated only
by a spirit of liberality andiaimess."
The- Colonel looked well and walked
out of the hotel to his office in the Cap
itol. NORTH CAROLINA COLLEGE OF
AGRICULTURE AND ME CHAN.
IC ARTS.
WHAT IT IS UNDERTAKING TO DO, AND
WHAT IS IT DOINO.
In the capacity of a committee, an
pointed by the Board of Trustees for
such purpose, we are glad to put the
College before the public.
lhe Institution has now comnleted
its fifth year. Its'development may be
best noted by the number of students
matriculating each year: Seventv-one
in the first, 84 in the second, 110 ia the
third, 115 in the lourth, and 191 ia the
fifth year.
I he scheme of education, as decided
on in the beginning, has not been
changed, but it has been enlarged. It
was an innovation on the methods nf
the pass. It is true that some of our
institutions of learning contemplated
certain industrial features in the begin
ning of their career; but these feautures
were, however, soon abandoned.
The College "of Agriculture and Me
chanic Arts promised the youth of .the
State an education which could be pro
cured at no other institution in North
Carolina; an education broad and thor
ough in its basis, omitting the classics
and metaphysics, but including of pro
'duct On by skilled labor, with the es
sentials of development and improve
enim such things as constitute the
basisot all true prosperity to the comi
monwealth.
A brief glance at the curriculum
will, perhaps, best exemplify the work
undertaken in. the beginning, and uow
carried on in the several departments
of the College. The Intelligent reader
can judge whether such work promises
practical results, and then will care
fully consider how much has been ae
com Dlished in the short time, as de
tailed below. See if it does not promise
well for the State. "
A four years course is , necessary to
graduation; but shorter courses are
being prepared for speeial cases.
In. the first year the course is not
elective, but arbitrary. In the seeond
year the student must decide which of
several courses he will take, viz.; Ag
riculture, Science, or Mechanics. The
students in the Agricultural course,
however, are allowed one more year in
Mechanics.
The Agricultural course embraces
the thedry anil practice of advanced
and economical farming, drainage, .im
prove of land, crops, care of stock and
cattle, feeding for beef, and butter
making, creameries, etc. In this gen
erai division Horticulture is taught.
Attention to orchards and small fruits.
gardening and practiculture, forestry
ana enton.oiogv, botanical investiga
tions, with or without micros'coDes
This division contains, as also do others
a good course in English, history,
mathematics, phyftics, and chemistry
pure, and agricultural, and in book
keeping.
lhe Scientific course includes all
such studies as leau to the B. S. degree.
But in this lnstution the student must
take much practical work in laborato
ries along with the course, the botani
cal work in the Senior year of this
course leading Into Bacteriology
The Mechanical course includes the
technical study of buildings and bjild
ing materials, steam and all kinds of
steam machinery, ' graphic statics
bridges and roofs, and applied me
chanics generally.
To these technical studies the course
adds a four years course in English in
pure and applied mathematics, a course
in history, physics and electrical en
ginerriug, in chemistry, and In moral
EcieDce.
The practice work of the course con
sists of the use of all sorts of wood
working topis, of forging and temper
ing and making Iron tools, of the use
the various machines In wood-turning
and pattern-making, of machine work
la iron, together with a thorough course
ia mechanical drawing, architectural
drawing, surveying, civil engineering,
work in physical and electrical labora
tories, etc.
In the College of Agriculture and
Mecnanic Arts it Is not designed to
teach single trades or occupations. Es
pecial reference may be had to some
particular line of work, but the student
who desires to graduate must take the
entire course in one of the three , de-
partments, and thus obtain a good
knowledge of the principles underlying
all of the work taught.
I: will probably be asked, is the
work of the College practical ? Is the
worth of the education at all commen
surate with the outlay In providing for
the same ? Such questions will occur
to all thinking men. It could readily
be shown that in the industrial devel
opment of the resources of the State,
that the agricultural and the mechani
cal Dursuits (including all kind3 of
inanufactures,) easily outrank all oth
ers combined. Of course we have
mines, fisheries, lumber Interests, etc,
which add to the wealth of the State.
Preachers, teachers, lawyers, physi
cians, bankers, merchants, etc., etc,
go to make up the remainder of the
population.- Yet It will be readily con
ceded that all products upon which
mankind, the professions and all trades
subsist come as the result of manual
labor, which, therefore, should be well
trained and directed. As a matter of
course only a fraction of the popula
tion can learn to be experts, but these
cm be of the greatest service In guid
ing aud directing others.
Therefore the question naturally will
e aikei, if ample facilities are alieady
afforded to so many of the youth of the
State, so far as purely mental acquire
ments are concerned, should not an
I opportunity be given to other youth to
learn somothing 01 the principles un
derlying the various kindi of practical
work? It will doubtless be admitted
that such training, coupled with pro
per mental exercise, will be in the
direction of a happy j. combination of
knowledge and skill which will fit the
youth of any people to be good citizens
and true men. ,
RESULTS.
A period of time, counted by only
two graduating classes, is hardly taf&
cient to judge of results.
The first graduating class left the
College In Jun, 1S93. It consisted of
nlLeteen members. Of these, three

are farming, one is in charge of dairy
at Occon -chee farm (belonging to J.
S; Carr, sq.,) one is In charge of the
new Deaf and Dumb State School in
Morgan ton, one is draughtsman in a
large manufactory ia Nashville, one is
engineer in a similar place in this
State, three took postgraduate work at
the A. & M. College and are retained
there as instructors, one is chemist at
the State Experiment Station, one is
in charge of the machinery on a dredce
boat; in Florida, one is in the milling
uuaiuesa in oaiem witu f ries urothers,
one lis a draughtsman in Wilmington,
one lis teaching mathematics ln the
public schools, one is merchandising,
one is taking postgraduate work, and
one is employed at home.
In the second year there were eight
graduates, four of whom were already
employed when they graduated.
Fourteen students are spending their
vacation in putting up buildings on the
College grounds and in the vicinity;
six are spending their vacation study
ing chemistry, and others are undoubt
edly faking themselves useful at home
or elsewhere.
It (will be, perhaps, readily admitted
that boys who have been well ground
ed in Fnglish studies, in mathematics,
and in scientific 6tadies generally, and
who are enabled to peiform such work
as aDpve named, will make useful citi
zens.; Of course a longer time must.be Dr
mitted to make up a fair pinion as to
the work of the College, but enough

is tne work 01 the College practical ?

constant mortification. What can I do
to get rid of these dreadful blotches?"
"Take Dr. 1ierce's Favorite Prescrin-
tion," was my prompt reply. "Your
complexion indie, tes that you are suf
fenng from functional derangement.
Remove the cause of the blotches and
you cheeks will soon wear the hue of
health. The 'Favorite Prescription' is
a wonderiui remedy for all diseases
peculiar to your sex. Its proprietors
guarantee to return the money if It
does not give satisfaction. But it
never fail?. Try It." The lady fol
lowed my advice, and now her com
plexion is as clear as a babe's, anclshe
enjoys better health than she has for
many year.
To permanently cure constipation,
biliousness and sick headache take Dr.

AN OLD CONTROVERSY,
Atlanta Constitution.
The faith cure was recently the sub
ject of an interesting symposium In
The Boston Glo&e.
lie v. D wight L. Moody U quoted as
aying that he believes in faith as a
curative force, but he also believes in
getting a good physician when a man
la Sick. .
Rev. A. B. Simpson says that he has
known many persons cured of every
kind of disease by faith alone. The
maladies thus cured embraced con
sumption, heart disease, cancer, rheu
matism, fevers, paralysis, pneumonia
la grippe, fractured bones and meutal
diseases. :
On the other hand, Dr. George Stcd-
man says that some of these diseases
cannot possibly be cared by faith.
Nevertheless, he admits that faith may
work wonders In certain functional
nervous conditions. ; The Baltimore
Sun thus comments on the symposium:
This is a controversy almost as old
as the human race. The Old Testa
ment Is full of it and the New Testa
ment, also. Believers in faith care
hav abounded in every age- It Is not
a new bat a very ancient belief. Abut
100,000 persons touched Charles II of
England ia the belief that it was good
for their various maladies so to do.
Valentine Greatbrakes, "the stroker,"
is not a myth. Histcry certifies clearly
that he lived about two centuries ago
and that hundreds of his sick leliow
men weut away from his presence per
iectly well after he had -stroked them.
Ue began "stroking" In Ireland and
stroked his way to London, where he
amassed a fortune by his miraculous
cares.
It is probable that the power of the
mind, the imagination, the will or
whatever term we ue to designate that
faculty In man which certainly con
trols to some extent bis bodily condi-
VC-' ?t?:ffC, .j-'pSj
tion, has been underrated by the spirit
uaiisi school. That it is very great is
undeniable. Sydney Smith tells us
that the banker poet, Rogers, was at a
umuer pariy ana mistook a large sheet
of plate glas3 for'an open window. Ue
felt the imagined draught therefrom so
Keenly that he rose from the table with
a severe cold. A man -who had been
.aid on tne guillotine for execution and
a icpucveu just as me Knue was
aDout to tail was taken up dead, and on
the back of his neck a mark as nf th.
knife was plainly visible, though it had
not touched him."
After reviewing both sid.'s, the con
clusion seems to be tht the faith cure
is.a big thing when you have a good
doctor in charge of your case. Kely
on faith as much as you please, but
follow the doctor's directions.
THE USE OF THE PRIMARY
THE SOUTH.
IN
New York Times. f
Senator Jarvis, of North Carolina,
who was appointed as the successorof
benator Vance until such time as the
-uoKusiature suuuiu nn me vacancy in
the regular manner, is an avowed can
didate for the seat occupied by Senator
Ransom, whose term expires next
March. The reason he seek3 for that
seat rather than an election to the one
he already has by appointment is parti v
because it would lusure him a full term
of six years, and partly because the
western part of the State has a claim
upon the seat vacated by Mr. Vance's
death, and Jaryis and Ransom are both
from the eastern part. Mr. Ransom
has no idea of giving way, as Senators
rarely retire before they have toi
Senator Jarvis tried to have the ques
tion of the relative claims of hioise'lf
and his colleague referred t,o the 'pri
maries," that is, to have primary elec
tions held throughout the State for the
purpose of submitting tothje Democtat
ic voters the choice between the two
Senators. The State committee re
fused to order such primaries, and a
resolution recommending that1 the sev
eral counties of the State hold them on
the day of the general election In No
vember was rejected in the State conven
tion recently held at Ra.leigh.J Bui the
proposition suggests the extension of
the functions of the party primary that
has been going on in the South of late.
Butler and Tillman are carrying on a
contest for the Senatorship io South
Carolina In advance of the convention
for the purpose of submitting the Issue
to the Democratic voters at! the prima.
nes, at which delegates ai e to be cho-!
sen to nominate the men who will elect
the Senator. As is well known, .Oates
and Johnson made the c -iuVass for the
Democratic caudidacy for Coyernor in
Alabama in advance of the hominatinir
convention, and the' vote at the prima
ries decided theconte-t beyond further
question. ;
This practice brings control of party
nominatioos closer tu t :.e ! people, and t
makes a united s-ui.pott of candidates '
more certain after the nominations
have . been made. It may afford a
means in a roundabout way of getting
something like a popular choice of
United states Senators. If the practical
adopted in some States of having nomi-
tiations made by the btate Convention
should become general, It would Ji ing
the choice nearer to the people, but if
such nominations should be the result
of an actual vote taken at the popular
primaries, then the Senators elected
would be the choice of a majority of the
voters of the majority party in the
State, which is the most that a popular
election amounts to in any case

To, the Republicans of North Carolina: v
The time for holding our State con

me that our position in the political
history of the State should be well con-
idered ty all members j of the party
who have Its Interests at heart and de
sire to see the principles 01 ttepubii-
caalsm triumph In North Carolina, The
Democrats have held their convention
nd dominated their ticket and have
deliberately refused to endorse the on
administration ol their party which
has been In the last generation. Even
the leaders of Bonrbonlsm in North
Carolina In convention assembled bow
their heads ia shame and say by their
conduct that we can't approve of what
our party has done in national affairg
for the last two years. The Populists
have also bad their convention, and
have nominated a State ticket undei
an implied agreement with the Repub
lieans that they and the Republicans
would co operate In the coming cam
paign for the defeat of the Democratic
party. Now I am heartily ln favor of

two-thirds Democratic under the name
of co-operation. I don't belie ye that
the great hosts of Republican voters

and bis like sleep under and vote a
ticket that is balf Democratic while
they have fresh In their minds the vile
abuse that has teen heaped upon their
heads by men of the political stripe of

With the tariff Question
disposed of by congress the linanel.ai
question will continue to crow in im.
poitance until lt is settled in the int.

gress has been discussing the tariff the
people have been discussing
question. The result la that, today.the

paramount issue in the mind of the
public.
belfioh interests have tried in vain to
ignore 11, anu ignorance has done its
best to muddle it, but all to 110 purpose
It overlaps and overreaches party lines.'
lhe republicans are trying hard to put
themselves in line with the peple on
this great issue. The populists have
adopted it. And even the prohibition-.
ists, who have heretofore dealt- only iu
questions of morars, have taken it up
and in two btates of the northwest
they have declared for the fiee coinage'
of silver. a
ln a great many states the politicians
have succeeded in smothering the ujoo
ey question with otlrcr issues, and in
momentarily diverting attention from
it, but it has grown and is still growing
and by the time the next congres,
meets it will have complete possession
