POLITICAL C05TRIBCT10NS
; Senator Yokhees has introduced
a biA .to prohibit officers and em
-ployeaof the United States from
: exmtnbuLLug money for political
. purposes. In discussing the bill
! Jtr; VOBHEES said he wished once
. aiore to see the olden time when a
' man who proposed to use money to
influence elections would have lost
.'his rank and standing in society as
mach as a horse thief. We fear
the Senator will never see the
"olden time." Revolutions never
go backward, though history may
repeat itself, bat hardly in a gene
ration.
The bill created some little flutter
ig the Kepublieaus, tor it is
the contributions from the employes
and office holders that turn the
wheels of the campaign. Mr.
EiWLEi, in opposing the bill, said
that be claimed the right to give to
any honest political purxso. and
that trae politics, next to the service
Of God, is the most honorable work
in which a man can bo engaged.
If this be true, then "true politics"
has been lost sight of. The !et

blank checks sent around by the
deputy for the officers to sign and
the money was kept m the office of

lean campaign.
WH AT CAN HE EXHIBIT J
Tiie ipiestion, "what can I ex
hibit," is asked many times a day
by onr callers and correspondents.
. The reason promptiug this inquiry
is that most men have a notion that
i they have but one orjw.. things
: worth sending to Raleigh. In this
I they axe much mistaken. Suppose
we classify those things which are
j most common first, and then sug
I jest others. It has Iutu proposed
! that the citizens of Craven, Onslow.
j.Iones, Carteret, Ueaulort and
i other counties should unite in put
ting up a building for their
occupancy. By framing this ol
native woods with the bark care
fully left on, we should have a very
pretty and yet cheaply built place.
On all the posts cards could be
placed telling where these timbers
grew. In that way our gum, cy
press, cedar, holly, oak, hickory,
persimmon, dogwood, maple, ash,
pine and other tiiulx'r trees could
be nsed to good advantage. Next
would come the several kiii'ls ot
rock for building or lime burning;
fine samples from every marl bed:
phosphate rock; every kind of clay:
also collections of fossil bones,
teeth, shells, petrifactions and such
enrions things as are dng up every
now and then from marl pits. The
boys and girls living along the
ocean beach could collect all sorts
of sea shells and marine curiosities
that would be very attractive if
properly arranged. Next we ought
to have specimens of every kind of
grain, vegetables, fraits. and cot
ton raised on the farm. If every
farmer in the counties named would
carefully cultivate this j ear all that
usually does best on his ground,

would beat that oi all other parts
of the State. As for the women,
God bless them! they can beat the
men all hollow, in making onr show
a fine one. We wonld like to see
exhibited there splendid pickles,
which are the pride of many a house
hold, the jars of preserved fruit, the
sweetmeats, and the variety of
things their skilled hands prepare
so daiutily for tickling the palates
of their families. There are ladies
in New Berne that can cure the
skins of wild fowls and birds of
lesser size and work them into
many beautiful iorms. Others could
prepare herbariums showing the
flora of this country. In short, to
whatever they have directed their
attention, and acquired skill in pre
paring, that let them show. It wUl
all count.
Everything manufactured by ma
chinery or by hand onght also to
form part of the exhibition. Maals,
axe helves, ox bows, chairs seated
with corn shucks, and such simple
home-made tilings shonld have a
place as well as Captain Gray's
wooden plates, or cotton seed oil
and meal. We have named a good

THE STATE EXPOSITION
We are phased to see that our
correspondents in the adjoining
counties are urging ujxn their peo
ple to take some native steps to
wards making a dj,lay of their
products anilroorces at the Ex
position to be held at Raleigh next
fall. It ia good to talk and write
the thing up, but the time is fast
approaching when there must be
action. If anything is accomp
lished there must be an organized
effort. New Berne is the central
point of several counties in this sec
tion, and it strikes us that an effort
should be made here to have the
entire country tributary to this city
properly represented at the Expo
sition. Where are our Board of
Trade and'C'otton Exchange organ
izations! Will they not seize an
opportunity to show the people ol
this section that their respective
organizations are not entirely for
selfish purposes! Are thev not
interested in the development
of the couuties that mar
ket their produce here!
Most assuredly they are. Then let
these organizations call a meeting
at once and appoint committees for
the purpose of collecting material
for the Exposition, and fur solicit
ing funds to erect a proier building
in the grounds for the display.
The tarmers would doubtless com
ply with any reque.t of the com
mittees in bringing in specimens
of timbers, marls, lime and rock,
aud farm products if they would
take charge of the same. In this
way a collect ion can U' made with
little or no cost, so the only money
ueeded would to for the purine ot
properly arrangui,rthem at K.ileigh.
The work can be divided by having
a committee for each county, and

the right of county commissioners
to make an appropriation ot county
funds for the purpose of milking an
exhibit of the resources of their
county in the approaching North
Carolina Exposition.
Honintr vou can oblige us bv giv

Slate Exposition:
Dear Sir: In reply to yonr let
ter of the 12th inst., I have the
honor to say that the powers con
ferred by law upon the county com
missioners, and to be exercised for
the benefit of the public, are nume
rous and extensive.
The Code says that every county
is a body corporate, and shall have
the iowers prescribed by statute
and those necessarily implied by
law. These powers must be exer
cised in pursuance of resolutions
adopted by the board of commis
sioners, and, in certain specified
cases, with the concurrence of the
justices of the peace. And they
"may make such orders for the dis
position or use of the property ot
the county as the iuterests of its
inhabitants require." Sees. 70li,701.
They have a general supervision
over the finances, and the law ex
pressly "invests them with full
power to direct the application"' ot
the county revenues "to any good
and necessary purpose for the use
of the couuty." Section 7o.'$. The
Supreme court has repeatedly an
nounced the principle that the trust
of regulating all county matters is
confided to the commissioners, and
that the exercise of powers confer
red upon them will not be controlled
by the courts, lirodnax vs. Groom,
64 N. C, 244, ami numerous other
cases.
The movement to have an ex
hibit of the resources of the State
is one in which the people of every
county in the State are in some
measure interested. It concerns
the public, and wa.s inaugurated
with a view to secure favorable re
sults to the State at large. I there
fore think that the case is within
the power of the county authorities,
and that they may exercise the
power by appropriating money to
enable the county to make a proper
exhibit of its resources at the en
suing Exposition, if they shall de
termine that the same is necessary
for the good of the county and to
the interests of its inhabitants. No
special tax could be levied for the
purpose, and no subscription of
stock in the Exposition Association
by the county could be made, with
out the consent of the legislatuie,
as has been frequently decided; but
this of course is not contemplated.
In considering the matter, however,
I think the commissioners should
act in conjunction with a majority
of the justices of the peace of the
county, and it seems to me that no
valid objection could be interposed
o restrain them from giving to the
enterprise such reasonable and
substantial encouragement as the
financial condition of the county
would in their judgment warrant.
Indeed, such action and the aid
thus given, would be in harmony
with the spirit of the constitution,
which requires the legislature to
establish and maintain a depart
ment of agriculture; and also with
the spirit of The Code, which directs
an annual appropriation to be mado
to the State and to county agricul
tural societies sections 2.21S
2,222), and empowers "county com
missioners to appoint fairs in their
resjtective counties" for the encour
agement of industry, and to regulate
the same by a system of by-laws.
Sections 2,790 2, 71)1.
Yours truly,

A Cheerful Spirit.
The man or woman who always
reveals a cheerful spirit, will suc
ceed in life. The pleasant face will
carry its possessor safely through
life in spite ot every oposing power.
Smiles will banish the darkness
that gathers about every life-path,
and the sunlight will tall upon life's
pathway, wherever a cheerful spirit
exists. The sunbeams will melt the
iceberg and dispel the darkest night
that ever brooded over the world,
and so a sunny spirit will scatter
the coldness and darkness of human
ity, and bring brightness and bless
ing to those about it.
If there is anything repulsive
about a human being, it is a fretful
spirit and a sorrowful face. If there
is anything utterly repelling aud
disgusting, it is the sour-visaged
one who iufliiot smile or wear a
cheerful look, but who continually
brood over his misfortunes, and
I so keeps on the .shadowy side of
i everything. God's .sunshine is

Whoever named this township
understood how to use words, for 1
no more appropriate appellation !
could have been given to these
broad acres that for ten miles,
square produce cotton and corn in
astonishing abundance. It is a
rolling country intersected by
sw iftly flowing creeks and branches,
tributaries ot' the New river. Belts
of heavy timber line the water
courses, out most of the arable land
has felt the plough. Fast of it the
W hite Oak swamp interposed as a
protection Irom union foragers
during the war. and had not their
slaves been treed the people would
have suffered but little pecuniarily.
As one citizen said to-day, "wo
were thirty miles from evciy where
and nobody troubled r.s. ' The
young men went to the held, many
never to return, the wealthy plant
ers dieii. and their estates were
divided and sold. With a single
exception all the prosperous farmers
of the township weie poor men in
1 i;.". hut they knew how to work,
and since then they have bei ome
buds of the soil. From Gum
Branch, two mih s southeast ot this
village, to the northwest come; ot
the township, there is nof an acre
of poor land. Some of it is light,
but rich enough to produce animal
crops ol' corn, oats, millet, sweet po
tatoes and peanuts in large quanti
ties. The heavy clay lands yield
generously of cot ton. The village
is a mere center of a lew houses,
four stores, four churches, one
school house, but not a single grog
shop. It is a temperate and re
ligious community. .Many of the
farm houses are large, spacious and
comfortable in any weather. Fine
horses, buggies and family car
riages are kept. In many pallors
are Steinway or Kuabo pianos.
.The null are a goodly race, strong,
in inly and hearty. The lertility
of the soil is due to limestone and
marl. Some of the latter is throwu
up from pit several feet deep, but
the most is shoveled Irom outcrop
pings several feet higher ihan the
mean level of the land. A light
topdiessing now and then is all
that is needed for fertilization
Some of the farmers cultivate their
laud. employing what laborers they
need, others prefer to let theirs out
to tenants at a stipulated price per
acie. On the great property of E.
L. Eiancks are both w hite and col
ored tenant farmers who try every
season to excel each other in the
quantity aud quality of their crops.
One of the largest plantations is
owned by Christopher Stevens, a
hale, athletic man of seventy-tour,
but the father of two sweet little
gills, one six. the other eight years
old. The census taker ought to
have given this fact prominence in
his statistics of population, for such
extraordinary fertility is an indica
tion of the rare life giving proper

a profound feeling ot relief wherever

Cherry Pectoral.
Nn other complaints are so insidious in their
attack a? those affecting the throat and 1 tin per
none so trifled with by the majority of suffer
ers. The ordinary cough or cold, resulting
perhaps from a trifling or unconscious ex
posure, is often hut the beginning of a fatal
sickness. Aveu's Cherry Pectoral has
Tvell proven its efficacy in a forty years fight
with throat and lung diseases, and should bo
takeu in all cases without delay.
A Terrible Cough Cnrrd.
" In 1S"j7 I took a severe cold, which affected
my luiis. I had a terrible cough, and passed
night after night without sleep. The doctors
gave mc up. I tried Ayeu'h C n e r k y Pec
toral, which relieved my lungs, induced
sleep, and afforded me the rest necessary
for the recovery of my strength, liy tho
continued use of the Pectoral a perma
nent cure was effected. I am now (V2 years
old, hale anil hearty, and am satisfied your
Cherry Pectoral saved me.

Croup. A Mother's Tribnte.
" While in the country last winter my little
boy, three years old, was taken ill with croup;
it seemed as if he would dio from strangu
lation. One of the family suggested the use
of AVER'S Cherry Pectoral, a bottle of
which was always kept in the house. This
was tried in small and frequent doses, and
to our delight in less than half an hour the
little patient was breathing easily. The doc
tor said that the Cherry Petoral had
saved my darling's life. Can you wonder at
our gratitude? Sincerely yours,
Mrs. Emma Oedxev."
159 West 128th St., New York, May 16, 1&82.
'I have nsed Aver's Cherry Pectoral
in my family for several years, and do not
hesitate to pronounce it the most effectual
remedy for coughs and colds we have ever
tried. A. .1. Crane."

Palestine, Texas, April 22, 18ti2.
No case of an affection of the throat or

by the use of Ayer'8 Cherry Pectoral,
and it will always cure when the disease is
