If the Senate will act like the House Jias we will soon have a new tariff law to live under. Senator Ransom has been re appointed as a member of the National Democratic Campaign Committee from N. C. Geo. WC Childs, the great and philanthropic editor of the Philadelphia Ledger, died last week. v 1 The following, taken from the Washington correspondnce of the Charlotte Observer, shows that Congressman Bow er is sticking to his people in this part of the country, and fighting the Kentucky wh skey trust, which is trying to crush ouj; the distillers of this coun try.- Washington, Jan. 31. Much of to day's debate was taken up with the in ternal tax on whiskey. Rcpsesentative Bower concurred in the amendment of Mr. Tate, of Georgia, instead of oering his own. He made a vigorous speech, saying he, suspected any one who comes here and wants to pay $1 insteitd of 90 cents tax. There had. been petitions from Kentucky and'other States to this "effect. . Thi3 was denied by Messrs. Montgomery, Ellis, (s'aruth and other Lentuckians, hut Mr. Bower stood his ground manfully. He discussed the -extention of the bonded period from one to three year3 and stoutlj' opposed the proposition to increase it to eight, advocating a reduction of the term. The Iventuckians'argued that the short peri od favored the whiskey trust. Messrs." Bynum, Holman and Outhwaite opposed the extention. Various amendments were proposed and lost. The final action of the committee of the whole, after an extraordinary parlimentary snarl, last ing over an hour, was as follows : The adoption of the ways and means propo sition as to the tax, that is 1 on.'theeal lon, and- the retention of the present bonded period of three years. This routed the Ksntuckians, who are sulk ing this evening. -The North Carolini ans and' west South Carolinians support it did 20 for the Tate amendment if it had been understood. - tVhat the Goose Bone Predicted. 1 The goose bone ss a weather prognosticator is becoming in dispensible. and people are be ginning to "swear by it." As Hix the great weather prophet, goes down in the estimation of the people the goose bone goes up. AVhat the goose bone prog nosticeted, sometime ago, we give. you from an exchange, so so our readers may see what virtue there is" in it: "The bone says there will be no severe weather in this lati tude no weather in which run ning water wi 1 freeze The coldest days of the season . will occur "in the first fifteen days in February, and after that there will not be very cold -weather though blustering snow storms may be looked for in March1. "The month of February will be one of continual, falling weather, with rain nearly every day, and a good? deal of sleet and snow. . . "January will end with .fall ing weather and a good sleet, but the second day of February will be as clear andwarm vas spring :. but after that look out. Spring will be early andr after April 1st thre will bet, no hurt ul frost.", . ' .- I Recognizing the- fact that. ton account' bad fegisTation, we are having hnus tial hard times N. 21.

The House, it is belie r f 4Ckl'i yroul d have given a larger vote than The Wilson tariff bill, which ; ia a "tariff for revenue,, and j rictly in accord with Demo i cratio principle, passed the U. H ouse of Representatives on t ie first day of Feb., by a ma jority of 62. The .Democrats, bbt 17, voted, for the bill, the E:epublicans against it. The bill contains an income tax, on all incomes over $4000. The enthusiastic scene in the House ax its passage has never been enacted before in the memory oi its oldest member. It is a bill in the right direction ; now Lit the Senate take it up. Our Congressmen took a prominent part in the debate. We give below a synopsis of I lower's speech taken from the Lenoir Topic : Wednesday night Hon. W. H Bower made his first set speech ii the House on the subject of tpe tariff before a brilliant au dience. We all know what an eloquent speaker and strong de tater our popular Congressman is and we also know the gener al opinion that such men fre c uently have their wings clip ped when they come to Con ! gress. remaps Mr. tfower naa thought of this. At any rale e started out by modestly dis laimins: the assumption of nowing it all, but mapped out J-LlO opCCV;U 111 OUVll C iuiuj j s traightforward and skilful j manner that he secured the un divided attention of his hearers i at once and their interest in i Ilkirn was unflagging through the hour that he spoke. He is I u handsome fine looking man land his graceful, unstudied at Uitudesare in ' his favor. He pitched his voice to the right cadence and it filled the audito ium with a comfortable reson ance. He had carefully prepar .d himseif and treated his sub ( ect in such a manner as to im ress upon his hearers that his mginality of thought and of landiing his subject, his depth )f research and wide reading a one make him worthy to occu jy a seat in that body which ;hould be composed of the; iblest men of the country. he felicity of his illustration, his appropriate use of the droll and inevitable anecdote won for him ;f requent. applause and baused the North Carolinians, wlio were numerous in the, gal leries, to beam with pleasure bpon him and to claim him for their representative with pride. He had the good fortune, uot always enjoyed by speakers at night sessions to be interrupted with captcious interrogatories by members oh the Republican side and showed himself capa ble and quick to take care of himself in such' encounters by his ready answers and discon certing sallies of wit that sent his questioners back to their seats in confusion to the accom paniment of rounds of applause from the galleries. Mr. Bower was allotted oniy 45 minutes. but he was allowed 15 minutes additional by unanimous con sent of the House. - At th& : conclusion ot his speech Mr. Bower was cong ulated by his colleagues upon his able speech and was called out to lobby, where he held a levee before the crowd of North Caroliaiaifs who came to . offer their congratulations.- I was in a gallery with JTiidgejAvery arid the JndgeC was1 delighted i with the speech, whicH lie; proiiotinc ed'as 'strong and f Jill : of. -the rrght ring -un i equivocally su p: prtmgitHeWilson bill:::'; f : One of the main threads of Mr.! Bower's argurnent ; was, A- Oi U X that the Democratic tariff the- ory is us far removed from free trade as from protection. We have settled it that the main source from which we are to derive our revenues is a tariff. That settles free trade We have a tariff and we have it for one purpose only, namely reve nue. That settles protection. In laying a tariff we have, or should have, only one object in view revenue. How Itevenne Officers Got Left. The Elkin Times is responsi ble for the following : Revenue officers, have some peculiar experience while hunt ing for illicit distilleries and of tentimes the moonshiners out wit them. Recently a party of officers were in the State of IFilkes on a, raiding expedition and as they rode by a church noticed several men standing near by. The officers had hard ly gotten out of sight of the church, when the bell commenc ed ringing. In a short time the report of a gun was heard in the distance, the bell continued to ring and another gun was fired. For half an hour the sound of the bell could be heard and as soon as another shot was fired the bell cea'sed to ring. Evidently the blockadtrs had arranged these signals with their confederates and the offi cers got left in consequence of the arrangement. Perhaps never before -was a church bell put to such a peculiar use ; but the citizens of Wilkes are noth ing if uot original in their meth od? of doing things. "Now is the winter of our discontent made glorious summer" by Ayer's Sar- teaparilla. This wounderful medicine so invigorates the system and enrichens the blood that cold -weather becomes positively enjoyable. Artie explorers would do well to make a note of this. - ) To preserve a youthful appearance as long as possible, it is indispensable that the hair should retain iU natural color and full ness. JXteftir Is nOigparation so effect cij&a (By L. B. Laws.) Days of winter fast are passing ; Soon we'll see the smiling Spring; Then the woods will ring with music, And the lark be on the wing. Then the flowers will be blooming ; And they'll sparkle in the lea As the nectar is extracted By jthe busy little bee. Then the sunny showers of April Bring out the forest's sommer dress : And the grass springs up in the mead ows To heal the hungry cow's distress. 'Tis then the tone of nightingales Disturb the quiet hours of night, When the stars are all a twinkling And the moon is shining bright. When in our domicils we're resting, And enjoying perfect peace ; And from his den the fox is stealing To devour the farmer's geese ; 'Tis then you hear in hours of night, Far off in mountains drear, The dismal tone of booting owls Ring out upon the air. As the season then advances, With its grain, its fruits and flours, The air we breath is purified By warm refreshing showers. The butter-fly sipps. on the flowers, Attended by his mate Until the chilly Autumn breeze Cause them to emigrate. obtb Carolina I -Iuthe Wh,res County, j Superior Court Louisa Holbruulr i W Holorook dee'd, pl't't vs. John 3.

Mr. Kiciiai-.d Uirks, the well-known Druggist, 207 McGill sty, ilon'treal, P. Q., says: I have sold Ayer's Family Medicines for 40 years, and have heard nothing but good said of tliera. I know of many Wonderfyf Cures performed by Ayer's Sarsaparilla, cre in particular being that of & littlo daughter of a Church of England minis ter. The child was literally covered from head to foot with a red and ex ceedingly troublesome rash, from which, she had suffered for two or three years, in spite of the best medical treatment available. Her father was in great distress about the case, and, at my recommendation, at last began to ad minister Ayer's Sarsaparilla, two bot tles of which effected a complete cure, much to her relief and her father's delight. I am gttre, were he here to-day, he would testify in the strongest terms as to the merits of Ayer's Sarsaparilla Prepared by Dr. J.tJ. Ayer &Co., Lowell, Mass.

Notwithstanding the great panic we have just passed through, our promises. have heen fulfilled and our prophecies realized. And considering all the cir -cumstanCes we look back to it as a year of remarkable progress, made so, in on"--judgement by the fact that our aim has been not to see how- much profit we could make in a single season, but how low we could sell our goods and our persistent and continuous efforts in driving down prices: has brought us the in creased business we have been working for. , An ounce of experience is worth'a pound of logic and, with the results f our- " past efforts before us, we see our wayclear to take a decided step forward, and . witn the opening of our new stock shall deal some sledge-hammer blows in the way of low prices that will speak louder than any any advertisements we earn make. . .
