C, December 22, itSI Oar Christmas Greeting. The old year is almost gone anr? Christmas is here. With this issue f the Courier we bid adieu to 1S87. but will wish our patrons "A- Happ) New Year" in our next issue, Jan uary 5th, 1888. We sincerely trust our past year p work has given satisfaction to oni readers and promise to use our bes endeavors to instruct and amuse them with our publications in the future.. The Courier, we are glad to say, has been a welcomed visitor in many households of the county and judging from the increasing interest mani fested by our people in our Railroad schemes, the political issues to be di9 cussed by the present Congress ann" the marked prosperity of our citizens, we trust that it may find its way to many more. Some who are under obligations to us have forgotten that nowRpaper men, like other people, wish to enjoy the festivities of the holidays and have Lot contributed to our happi ne83 the small sums of their indebted ness; but most of our readers have been more thoughtful of our comfort and have received our thanks and good wishes for the interest they have takeu in our financial well ire. How ever, we wish all alike, "A Happy Christmas." The "little ones" may expect Santa Clans to be heavily loaded wnh nice things for them; but there will be many children whom old Sunta wil' uot visit, so let our good fathers and mothers remember this and see that these are not neglected. There is :dytleujoynient in seeing others en- smselves. We would warn the Knights of the 'Roman Candle" and ''fire cracker' to.be careful where they shoot and not jap-irdize the safety our houses. Lastly, to all, be temperate; but en jjy yourselves, and may this Christ mas be long and pleasantly remem bered. And now, editors and prin tors wiil take a week's rest. JCSTHon. John S. Barbour was, on last Tuesday, elected United States Senator by the Virginia Legislature. This is an houor wisely bestowed. Mr. Barbour will succeed Mr. Riddle Lerger. I hat was the place that Billy Mahone was after, but he did'nt get there. In speaking of the elec tion of Mr. Barbour the R chmond Wliig says: 4Tho honor was fairly won ana worthily bestowed. Any other outcome of the recent brilliant Democratic victory in this State would not have reflected the wishes of the Virginia Democracy. They owed a debt to Mr. Barbour for his valuable services in several campaigns and for reecuiug the State from the cluthes of Mahone, which they could not pay m any better or more appro priate way than by conferring upon him th distinguished honor of United States Senator. But that was not all. They recognized in him th se qualities which go to make up the able leader, the wise counsellor, and the useful legislator, and they wanted his services for Virginia in the Senate of the United States. In honoring Mr. Barbour the Virginia Democracy honor themselves and honor their State." ' ' - JtSTOh for stepping stones or a Wit, so that we could get from one side of our streets to the other. Say, M essrs. Commissioners did it ever occur to you that if you would have some woik done on the streets m making sidewalks and street crossings that there would be less complaining about paying town taxes? Wo be lieve it would be so? Just try it and see if the Courier is not right. As it is how the streets are a disgrace to any communitT. X3TThe Republican National Con vention has been called to meet in Cliicago on the 19th of June, 1888, I to nominate candidates for the Presi dency and Vice-f residency The two wings of the RepU blican party of this rtate met in:IUlei.jh list Week, and I rem all -reports it soerasvtbat they liad a very-liarmonionB'mfetiDe.

The people of North Carolina neves uve complained at the tax on'Whif .ey, Tobacco &c. The manufacture! na uover objected to the (joverument I 1 a 01 rVk T XT ama thA tax noon hie nanufactured article, which sell just as re uiily, and he gets his pr oh u ill the same. No 9ane man can dcn mt the consumer, in the end pay he tax, the man, woman or child who does not, chew, smoke or dtink pays no part of this tis, so it can hi no hardship to them. The peoph complain, we repeat, not at the ta. the pay. But at the mode and manner adopted by tho republican party for .its collection, they justlj complain at this, tho system is hate ful and annoying in the extreme. In tbis matter, let the Government recognize. the people aa citizens ai;3 not as subjects- Ko man can see Irs property cut up and destroyed ot his business suspended upon a men technical evasion of tho law. No man can manufacture an article from tne produsts of his own labor, and then 6ee tue Government take charge of it, lock it up and hokt it with favorable opinion of tho law. No man can tamely submit to a system f espoinage adopted by the Govern- meut. No man cua uistifv a law that destroys a man's property for a violation of the law, he may be pun ished in his persou but to wantonly, aud often maliciously destroy and cut up his property 13 in violation of the plainest principle cf our funda mental law. These uro the harush-j b and iniquities of the Internal Eeve uue system. Let the Congress, modify, alter, change or abolish tie system, then there will be no further complaint against the tyrany of the Govtrnment in enforcing tho colkc tion of the Internal Revenue tax. It seems to us tho beet and wisest thing to 3o, would be to abprish the present obnoxious system of collect ing the internal revenues, and estab lish oie more economical, just and less offensive. Iluhboro Recorder. Internal taxation, with its ex cises and its inquis tions, and its offi cial supervision of the people's busi ness, has always been odious in Iree countries, and especially so in this. The Democratic opposition to it from 1749 dawn has been steady, consist ont, uncompromising and pitched upon the most distinct principles Jefferson swept away the 'remains of the Federalist system, with disgust, uot to say contempt. Cluiuncy F. Black. We commexd to the consideration of those Republicans who are con tinualiy crying out that elections are not honestly held in,North Carolina, the statement of Congressman Brower, of the Fifth District, who wag inter viewed by the N. Y. Tribune. Mr. Brower ea:d : "In North Carolina, the people are about equally divided and the Republicans have as good men among them as the Democrats, con sequently the elections are honestly conducted." Brower is one of 'em. and his testimony ought to be worth something. State Chronicle. A young North Carolinian of bril liant talents is in jil at VB8hington and is sentenced to be hanged for murder, the mordcr of his best friend he says, to which crime he was driven by whiskey, he says further, a demon that got full possession of him and made him a madman. Another yonng man is in j sil at Greensboro for kill ing a friend after a quarrel at a game of cards. The two had been close ccmpanions and warmly attached to each other up to the time of the petty tiriover the card-table. Now one i6 dead and tho other is in prison as his siller.
