Special Correponletic of the neaato. Last Wednesday morning, oar party of eight, consisting of three and a half couples and a cbapcrone, Mr. S., left the Watauga Hotel for higher regions. Our destination was the top of the Grandfather mountain, where we proposed spending the night. With manv a jest and song, with laughter and wild hilarity, we rode down the shadttd incline to Shall's Mill, where the sparkling waters of the Watauga spread themselves out into thirty or forty feet of bewitching beauty, and up the other seven miles of rocky road to the Hotel Grandfather, which is at the foot of the mountain. Arriving there at twelve, we rested from our jolts until dinner, after which we started up the mountain. Jnst in front of the hotel, anu almost overhanging, it, is a clilT, showing above the tops of the , nearest trees. It stands, seemingly only a stones throw away and yet it rears its craggy head over two thousand feet above- ns. That was one of the. -points (the lowest one) to be reached by our climb.' Not caring to wait for the gentlemen, and the guide, who had gone to fix the horses I say fix be cause there wii3 only one saddle for thrco horses, and that was a man's -the ladies, three of whom bad. as cended the mountain before, began the ascent by themselves, and their first move was a mistake. Turning the first curve, and pro ceeding about a hundred yards up, they came to a , point where the path divided into two equally clear ways. A halt, and an animated discussion, in which none could agree. Flo. knew the one turning to the right was the way, and Laura Lee was equally sure that the way lay straight up the mountain Hop ing q two paths might converge at the other end, the party separat ed, agreeing to halloo to each other, and to stop if the angle of differ ence became greater. And so it did, for goon the calls became faint er, and, becoming alarmed, the la dies eat down in their respective places to wait for the others. Im agine their chagrin, when, -five minutes later, the guide a lad of about ten years called to them from another path fifty yards to their left and said : "You're all on tho wrong road." They silently made their way over through the bushes, and said no more about knowing the path and wanting to lead. On the arrival of the horses, Miss Florida mounted horse num ber one,. without 'saddle, Laura Lee got on horse number two, in same condition, and the chaperone took the horse and attempted to ride in tho man's saddle. -Laura Lee and. r Iovida managed to stay on and ride-half way'np the moun tain by clinging with both hands to the horses mane, but the poor little chaperone couldn't sit in the Saddle and the way proved a long and dreary distance to her. Two miles of black, slippery mud at au angle of forty-five degrees, and a half mile of climbing over huge stones, immense fallen logs, and slick roots, is a thing to be viewed with intense satisfaction when ac complished, but of doubtful quan tity and quality when in the future The gentlemen stood it well, of - m a 1 course. Jtionaa could not nave done it all if it had not been for the horse she rode up for two miles. Mrs. S. puffed and blowed like a wind broken horse. Flo. looked as red as a beet, while poor Laura Lee, though she rode half the way, and had the help of a strong . arm the rest of the way, fell down on the topmost rock, a worn-oat fraz zle of complete wretchedness. Five minutes serving to rest the tird ones, the gentlemen left the ladies at the sunset view, and went down to occupy the two hours before suuset in preparing the night's lodgings, and cutting wood for thf fire that had to be kept up all night. jThe ladies first gave them selves up to the admiration of the view. This did not last .long, for soon they began to feel cold and to devise means for keeping warm. The wind was blowing a sharp gale, petung their teetli to chattering and altogether makincr them wretched. After their first venture, they were afraid to attempt to make i their way down; a quarter of a mile, t0 the gentlemen and the blankets; o it was only left for them to think jll sorts of hot things, and to w 'e down in a little heap.

A little lartner o the ridges changed their color to deep cerulean, while on the horizon Salisbury, C, whichlayaroundusinawary outline the blue faded to almost white, and insome marts, a naio ameiovsian grey. An hour oeiore sunset, me sun disappeared to those living in the valleys around Grandfather, and the wooded slopes were shadow ed, with only a narrow line of lfght on theirrcs'ts. To them the day was ended and we felt a deep pity f or these people, who, perhaps, had never seen a sunset in their! lives; a . and who, probably, would not have appreciated the most glorious x;ol oriugtf, if they could have beheld them. Verily, there are those who have eyes and see not. Our sunset (for I will call it ours, as it was the principal object of our climb) was a glorious pageantry golden splendor too dazzling to gaze long at, and yet too resistless to avoid with our glance. The orange lights .spread all over the west touching the moun tain tops and throwing a golden; shimmering glow down the valleys that lay open to the beautifying rays tinting the pale shades of the Blacks,, and making the ghost-like outliues of the lloan, which lay un der the sunset, stand out in chang ing opalescent hues. Beneath all these colorings of the Celestial City itself, the deep shadows of the near er valleys furnished a dark contrast ana a aeep selling 10 1 the scene, which otherwise would have , made ua forget that we were on the earth, and "of the earth, earthy .'1 The western sky tried to reflect the glo ries of the west, but only succeeded in adorning herself and her moun tain tops with a pale, rose haze, more suggestive of the dawn than anything else. ,Just before reach ing the mountain horizon, the yel low sun sank oehind a purplo cur tain, the exact shade and outline of the mountains, and for a mo ment we thought he had disappear ed behind the real horizon, but in a moment he partly emerged, hav ing changed from a golden, glitter ing and two dazzling robe to one of the softest crimson. And then" he left us, gliding from his cloudy pil low to rest on some unknown conch behind the distant mountains. De scending from the rock, we pro ceeded to the camp, which was un der a semi-circular, overhanging rock, protected bv slanting naisam V I ' boughs, which rested oil the the opening. -.While the top of party were ehatterinff and making the fire, I witnessed the most magnifi cent panorama of all. Climbing to the top fjof tho shelving rock which formed our cave and the night's lodging, I obtained another view of the western sky; but .not- as it was. a half hour before.; The colors were all there, but they could only be seen now and then and a little glimpse of gold through a setni-trausparent mist that the wind was blowing! past. Pretty soon the clouds came flying by, and entirely obscured the light. lhen, j as they lifted, I seemed to catch a! fleeting view of the golden gates of the New Jerusalem. But it was not long before they were obscured; just as in this worid of sin and sor row, God's saints may sometimes reach Celestial heights, where the pearly gates of Paradise seem to open to their view; but it ;is not long before they are cast) down from thej Delectable mountain, and once mote enshrouded in the "sul phurous rifts of passion and woe." And this time the clouds lingered as if they meant to remain perma nently. So, obeying the Cry of "supper" from below, 1 descended from my perch, to -find another scene, almost as attractive, if-not so inspiring as the other. In a semi-circle in the recesses of the rock, with faces lit up by the un certain flicker and glow of the camp fire, sat the merry "party, looking like Gypsies in - their - shrouded shawls and queer head-dresses. All were intent upon one objept the lunch basket and it was easy for us to fall into their.mood; so, with one accord, we proceeded to lighten that bask" tit Jn the course of fif teen or twenty minutes all were sat isfied and an expression of peaceful contentment rested ori the faces of all exqept young Samson, who by the way, had earned the right to a good 'appetite. He had walked all I the way up the mountain, giving nis assistance to-nrst one ot wie weaker vessels and then to another. He had carried a pack weighing thirty or forty pounds up the last three quarters of a mile; and, on reaching the top,- instead of view ing the sunset with the others; he had gone down and brought up a pail of water from a spring nearly a mile below. After bringing the wa ter and cutting wood for an hour, he deservedliil the supper he conjd get. But after passing biscuit-af-ter bhTcnit, sandwich- after sand wich, chicken, pickles, rolls,! cake, &c, until we were exhausted, still he showed no signs of ceasing Fi nally, we discovered that he had surreptitiously been eating from a basket that had. been designed for breakfast. Then the whole party arose in its wrath and put a stop to it,- After supper the chaperone in- t r veigled one young girl ounggirl off to bed, and succeeded in persuading to re tire to their corner and blanket, honinz the others would folio wi uit. ?iut vain was ner hope isam- aln A TtrtT Tim llilcinff ' Elf. 13 Tt rst nan 01 tne nignt to minu Laura Lee's feet bein wet Wednesday, August 1, 18S8.

Then Ivy Jim would tell a joke, 'followed by a roar of laughter from the "Amis," and a chorus of groans from trie "Somriolents." Laura Lee tried to sing them to sleep with Rock-i- bye Babv , but just as she went to take a high note the wind 1 would change, blowing a cloud of smoke and ashes down her windpipe ma terially affecting the purity of tone. Samson and Flo sang a very affect- duett, "Uaw, Uaw, Caw,r which, we afterwards learned, prov ed to be the lullabye of one of the Somnolent3. 'The Grasshopper sent another one off, and " The Peddler," htill another; but they couldn't soothe the cbaperdne. Fin- ally, she arose in ner might, witha whitocrocJietea shawl around her head and wrath in her countenance. and defeated the Antis. Flo. re tired to the luxury of a whole shawl and gossamer, the last of which proving a doubtful blessing; for the wind, which was blowing f uriously, would invade its utmost recesses, inflate it, and off it w;ou!d go. This happened at short intervals during the night. Laura Jee'd blessings were more doubtful still, consisting of a balsam bough as" large as her wrist, arranged transversely under her. one-third of a quilt, and a th a large straw hat for a pillow. " Wi a dampened handkerchief across her face to keep out" the smoke and sparks, a hatpin to fasten dowri hjer corner of the cover, she tried jto sleep; but every now and then you could have heard a discontented murmur about that stick under her back, and a pleading voice im ploring some one, any one, to come and sit on the edge of that quilt jto keep that wind, which seemed jto be possessed by the spirit of a fiend. The cave, instead of being a shelter from its blasts, acted like a suctipn pipe, inviting it to enter. Itin vaded every corner and cranny of the recess, and not in a quiet, well behaved, gentle zephyr kind of amaiiner, but with a bold asser tion; a tear-off-the-cover, freeze-you-to-death kind of decision, ahd even in-retiring, sent, a Parthian arrow in the .form of smoke ahd sparks. , Sorno one , hadto,. watch all night-to see that none of the 3parks did mischief: and one of the sparks did mischief; and one of the Anus iook a - malicious ueiignc in watching a spark ignite . on the quilt just over the chaperone. He was going to let it burn, when the thought struck him that if he burnt up the chaperone the whole party would nave to ny down tne moun tain immediately; so he magnani mously extinguished the little con flagration.: I At' five o clock the party arose, shook themselves like Newfound land dogs, each one seizing a quilt or shawl, and made oil through dripping ferns, over slippery rocks, and up an awfuUclinib to the Cald well view. Once there, they view ed themselves with shouts of laugh ter, for a motley group J-hey were. A tall Chapel Hill graduate and his companion,1 Hi njs,' were making vain attempts to rival the glorious sunrise colors in their wraps. The former were attired in a quilt, gav with purple, red, and yellow flow ers, while the last-named was not far behind in his combination lof yellow and green. Flo. looked im mense in a quilt, draped so as to catch the wind in its folds, giving her the appearance of a two -hundred-pounder. All were wet, be draggled, and freezing, but evn these adverse, circumstances failed to affect their appreciation of the sunrise; We then understood what the wind -Tisd beeri engaged in doing as it blew so fiercely all night. It had brought up seem ingly, all the clouds from off the face of this continent, and spread them out like an angry sea - ti - the north of ns. And in their midst the mountain tops rose like tall promontories, lu the east,' above the horizon, there were just enough- clouds to catch and retain the dawn ing colors before they reached us, and the sun came up from behind a rosy mass of light, that almost put him to the blush. The wind, which still blew a gale, was shift ing the clouds about, sending them down the; farther valleys in slow, solemn "processions, or driving them past us in thin, misty veils, which changed to palest yellow, as they went between ns and the son, mak ing a panorama of color' and mo tion never to be: forgotten. The clouds in the valleys were "shaded grey ajid blue, but as the sun's rays touched them, they werejetup by salmon tints,' making them look like'snow banks in their' brilliant beauty. Around us i and; to the north, east and "west," the scene wis one constant motion, and turbulent 1. -. - n l t - unrest, wmioio me oowui, v-,cj II mountains. were DOt . U,SU and the!

Joat after sourice, tb thermometer registered 5C F., nd we were reminded or oar miserable condition. So with rapid footsteps we went down to camp, made our hasty toilet behind an improvised car tain, reappeared with clean faces and straightened locks, and pitched luto breakfast; after which all fell to picking Balsam tips from nu merous visionary pillows, and for an hour nothing was beard but the snip and snap of the twigs and an occasional quarrel over the owner ship of a certain bough. Nine o clock found us down the mountain and ready to return to Blowing Bock... . ' : : After a long discussion, our party decided that if yon wish to lose more sleep and feel more miserable, and also have more fun and experi ence more bliss than you ever did before in your life, go to Grand father and camp all night on top. There you will be most miserable when you are happiest, and happiest when you are miserablest: . Nil Des. Tragedy in Virginia.

' - . . - ; 8 That any form of licenRC. taxation or regulation of. the liquor tralllc U contrary to good .governments that any party which supports regulation, llcenae or lax, enters Into an alliance with such t rattle and becomes the actual fi of the State's welfare, and that we arraign Rt publican and Dt-mocatic parties for their persist ent iuicjuity, i whereby' they oppose the demand of the people, and, though open " cnmpllcity with the liquor cause, defeat the enforcement of law. ".4 For the immediate abolition of the internal revenue system, whereby our na tional government Is deriving support v from our greatest national vice. ., 5 That an adequate public revenue ,b ing neceswaty. it may properly be raiaed by impost duties, but impost dutien should be so! reduced that no surplus shall be accumulated in the treaauiy, and Ih&t the burdens of taxation fchall be re- . moved from food, elotbinj? and other , comforts and necessaries of life. i6. That civil service appointments for all civil office, chiefly clerical In their du ties, should be based upon moral. Intel lectual and physical qualifications, and not upon party service or party neccsxliy. 7. That the right of suffrajre rests oa no mere circumstance of race, color, aex or nationality, and that where, from any cause, it has been withheld from citizens' who arc of suitable ae and mentally and . morally qtiaHfled for the exercise of an, intelligent ballot, it should be restored by' the people through the legislatures nf the several states, on such educational basis asthevniaydiymwl.se. o. lor the abolition of polygamy and the establishment of uniform laws gov erning marriage and divorce. ' .. 9. for prohibiting all combinations of capital to control and to increase tbe the cost of prodocls for popular consump tion. . 1 ... 10. For the preservation and defense of the Sabbath as a civil institution with out oppressing any who rellgonsly oh serve the same on any other day than the first day of the week. That arbitration is the Christian, wise and economical method of settling nation al differences, and the same method should, by judicious legislation, be ap plied to the settlement of deputes be tween laae bodies of employees ami ern ployers; that the abolition of the saloon would remove the burdens, moral,, phy sical, pecuniary and social, which now oppress labor and rob it of Its earnings, and would prove to be the wie and suc cessful way of promoting labor reform; and we will invite labor and capital to unite with usi for the accomplishment thereof; that monopoly In land is a' wrong to the people, and the public land should be reserved to actual settlers and that men and women should receive equal wages for equal work. . That our immigration laws should- be so enforced as to prevent the introduc tion into our country of all convicts, In mates of other dependent bisiitotlona, and of others, physically incapacitated for self support, and tb at no person should have the ballot in any state who it not a citizen'.of the United States. Recognizing and declaring; that prohi bition of the liquor traffic ha become ' the dominant issue in national politics, we invite to full party fellowship ail those who, on this one dominant issue,, are with us agreed, in the full belief that this party can and will remove sectiottal differences, promote national unity and . insure the best welfare of our calire land. .
