I'pon tho Legisla ture he kept so strict a watch that lie estranged the sympathies of man v of the 1 emocratic party. H is views on civil service reform are decisive anil pronounced as can be judged from the following speech made upon his acceptance of his nomination a.s Maor of Buffalo: "Subordinates in public oflices should b-o selected and retained for their efficiency and not becau.se they in. iy be urged to accomplish partisan ends. The people have a right to demand here as in the case of private employment, that their money be paid to those who will render the best service in return, and that the appointment to and the ten ure of such place should de pend upon ability and merit. If the clerks and assistants in public departments were paid the same compensation and required to do the same amount of work a.s those employed in prudently conducted private establishments the anxiety to hold public places would be much diminished and tho cause of civil service ieform matcriallv .mled."

During the campaign ot 1 s7 ( he made, at Indianapolis. l,;s memor able speech, ol which we give the closing paragraph: "We hear no more foolish cries that the Democratic party is dead.

Investi gation of the atl.nrs of the various bureaus of the I'ostoilice Depart ment has been going on for some time in so quiet a manner that the employees have not generally! known of it. 1 he first important result was the discovery of the stealing of many thousands of dol lars by the disbursing officer. Col. Burnside, and more recently the systematic thieving by the clerk, Bruggeman. who was engaged in cancelling imperfect stamps re turned from the manufacturers, was brought to light. The investiga tion has covered with more or less care the principal branches of the department proper, and it is under stood that the Postmaster General will probably weed out some of the officials who, although not chargea ble with wrong doing, are liable to censure lor neglect to exercise proper vigilance over the interests entrusted to their care. The Postmaster General asked for the resign at ion of T. 1 '. Graham, the Chief of the Postage Stamp Department, to-day, and it was promptly tendered and accepted.

At the ratification meeting, or ; something of the kind, held at In d: r-apolis on Saturday night last Mr. lir.NDKKjcs was to be present and make a short speech in which it was expected he would signify whether he would accept the nom ination of the Chicago Convention for Vice-President or not. This in itself made it an important meeting in the eyes of all political watch men, hence anything done or said a' that meeting would be brought to the notice of more persons than any similar meeting that has or will be held during the campaign. Gov. Hendricks was present, made a short speech, not only sig nifving an acceptance of the nom ination, but hiy ing' down some of I the purposes of the campaign and showing the necessity for reform iu the civil service of the government. As was most natural he alluded to the investigation of fraud in the Medical Bureau of the Naval De partment and quoted the evidence given before the investigating com mittee by Secretary Chandler him self. Nothing could be fairer than to giro the administration the benefit of the sworn testimony of the head of the department in which the fraud had been committed. If anyone could paliate it, he certainly could, but Secretary Chandler thought it lacking iu "decent fair ness " and thrust a fulsome letter to Gov. Hkndrm'Ks before the public b means of the Associated Press, to which Gov. Hendricks penned tic tollowing reply: Indianapolis, July S4. 7coi. IC. K. Chandler: sir: I And in the newspapers this morning a letter to me from oiirself. written yesterday, and en culated through the Associated Press. You complain that i did you injustice in an address to the people of this city, made the eve ning before. Iu that address I urged that ' we need to have the books in the Government office opened for examination," and as an illustration I cited the case of a fraudulent voucher in one of the bureaus of 3'our department, and stated that upon your testimony before a sub committee of the Sen ate it appeared that the frauds Amounted to fG,3, 000; and is not every woid of that truef You were brought before the committee and testified as I stated. You admitted uader oath that the snm ol money lost amounted to 03,000, but your defence was that the embellzement did not wholly occur under your ad ministration, but that a part of it was under that of your predecessor. It seems to have covered the period from June 21, 1SS0, down to January 2.1, 18S4. Does that help your ease! You were were at the head of the department a year and nine mouths of that period, and your predecessor about one year and ten months. He was in oflice at the payment of the first false voucher, on June 21, 1880, and up to April 17, 1882, when you came in. and you there continued until the last false voucher was paid, Jan. 2.1, 1884. The period was al most equally divided between your self and your predecessor. How much of the 03,000 was paid out under yourself aud how much under j your predecessor your letter does not show. Put, sir, upon the ques tion that I was discussing, does it make any difference who was Secre-1 tarv when the la! e vouchers were! paid I urged that in cases liko this, ! when fraud.' are concocted iu the vaults or in the oooks of the de partment, the only remedy of the' people is by a change of the con trol, so that the books and vouchers shall come under the examination of new and disinterested men. Do oii think 1 am answered when you s.i 1 was mistaken in supposing! thai m the ease the frauds were all i in. .lei 'your administration, when,; i a tact, a part of them extended; mi k into t hat of your predecessors!

Respect fully. T. A. LIendrick.s. How to be of Ileal I'-e hi (he Neighbor::. Farmers are to be depended upon, take them all together, to be con servative to the detriment of their own interests, even when special effort is made to demonstrate to them in a 'iaxebencvolcnt way. iu what course their real interest lies. The only way the agriculture of any long-settled section is radically changed, is hy individuals com ing in, and beating the old farmers ;it their own trade, raising better crops, better stock, making better batter and cheese', beef and pork, and of course making more money. A man ifihe really wants to benefit his neighbors, makes a great mis take if he undertakes to enlighten them, to show or explain his meth ods, theories, etc. Xo, he must make a mystery of it, telling them I that they cannot do the same; that this and that are his secrets: that they must find out for themselves, etc. They must be absolutely driven off their own ground before they will change. This is actually oc curring in all the oldest and long est settled sections, by the incom ing of foreigners. The young :;n n have deserted the old farms, and nil around thrifty foreigners are get ting possession of them. The lii.sh quick, smart, practical fellows get together a little money, buy an old place for a little cash, aud give a mortgage. Thijigs may look like distress, but wife, and boys, and girls, all work in the field as vccl! as in-doors, and there is money enough to meet the interest on the mortgage, to keep the family in decent clothes, with a liberal ie mainder for the church. The German, when he buys, im proves things very fast; even the,: is neat about his place: his living expenses are not half those of an American family, and yet heiie better. He has more plea;. ure ;;. his food and in his amusements, and more enjoyment with his famih , aud, as a rule, does more reading. He begins with a poor little faim, bat is ever improving. He goes out to tlay's-work, while his w in runs the farm. If there is any teaming, plowing, digging of cell, i r. and that sort of work, he finds time to do it, and so he turns an honest penny wherever he can. He knows that manure goes twice a.s tar. a e teu times as far in a liquid, as in :: solid state, so his garden, and cab bage patch, and tomatoes, and nli those half garden crops, are wateied with manure water. Thus a little manure goes a great way, and he beats the whole neighborhood w ith his ''truck," w hich pays him three or four times as much as any crop the native American farmers about him raise. Gradually they get into doing similar things ou a small scale, then on a larger, and finally true.: ing and small fruits, and special crops of one kind and another, are. so to speak, all the rage. Mean while, the Geiman has become a rich man, and if he does let f .11 into that besetting sin of thine foreigners tavern-keeping, liquor-selling mi a small or scale he will become a prou and influential member of s- Scandinavians, Scotch, and. d w otici t t ii c com m unit ics they come, in very si m tifo't ways.

Wc are surprised that to: little attention is given to fruit cul ture in this immediate section. Aslieville Jx'ofixter: Mr. James A. Jte.vnolds died at tho Western Hotel in this place laftt Sabbath ' afternoon, of typhoid fever. He! was sick but a short while, and his; death is a sad blow to the sorrow-1 ing wife and the now fatherless1 little ones Mr. W. P. West, o"f Leicester township, reports that on i the 20th of Juno there were three water-.por.ts on North Turkey creek. ; The damage done was greater than ever before in that section. Rocks ' weig lung ficin 0,000 to 10,000 lbs. were moved, also trees, saw logs and fencing. One cow was drowned, a mill dam washed away, besides much damage to corn, rye and wheat. George Chisholm, a young man 1 or 16 years of age, while bathing in the Svvauuanoa about J miles from this place, was drowned last Thursday afternoon. The river was full at the eime, and all efforts to recover his body hare proven of no avail. He is doubtless covered by the drifting sands, br passed into (he French Broad beyond re covery. We trust, however, that these conjectures may prove incor iect. We understand that the widowed mother is now left child less. May the God of the widow comfort her in the dark hours of her bereavement. V. S. Since the ul-nve was put in type, the body 1ms been found. It had drifted --ome distance, (three miles) below where the unfortunate young man was drowned, and lodged on a log. Goldsboro ,'s( n$fr: The many1 friends ofCapt. It. A.

Davenport a-nd Mrs. Fantfie Mayo, who seemed to enjoy the trip equally as well aB any of the u'nmar-! ried ones who were young ittad pretty, lively and playful. Among too ,mauy handsome ones we take the liberty of mentioning Misses Angie Roberts, Win nie Dixon, Linney Bragg, Georgie Mayo, and Jonescy JiobeTts, who had an accordeon along', with which she and several otners maae tne Deet-oi music. Besides the music on the accord eon, oc casional strains of vocal music could be heard ifom the lower deck and ladies' saloon, all of which were well rendered. We had a most delightful ride across to Ocracoke. In passing we wereshown the place now knownaa Teaches' Hole, where the famoyjirsea pirate, Capt. Teach, wis caught and beheaded by the English a hundred years ago or more. And on by Ocracoke Inlet, that leads out to aea. At that plac the ocean, sound, banks and the surroundings are altogether a delightful scenery. It is said to be the grandest and most beauti ful coast in the South. We lauded at Ocracoke and were met at the wharf bv a party of ladies, among whom were Miss Liila Fairer and Miss Roberts, of Washington, Nearlj- all tin party wrnt tip to seetheliftht house which is in the center of the town, built of brick anil between 75 ami ion feet in height. The Keeper, Mr. How ard, and his amiable wife showed every attention possible to the visitors. Mr. Howard taking all who wished up to the top of the light boose, which nave them a full view of the waters iiiouml Ocracoke is a better looking place than Portsmouth ; more families, belter looking residences, mors places of busi ness, a good hotel with about one hun dred summer visitors. The live oak trees are abundant. A portion of the party went over to Capt. Meriam's, who is doing a good business in the mercantile lino, who kindly took us into his elegant sailboat back to the steamer, thus saving lis a long aud wearisome walk down the sandy beach. We all hoard tho steamer le-aiti. the whistle brows un8 otf we g'o back for Portamou.h, where wo innlior for the n ight. Fish , bird ; and clams f r supper. At U o'clock Tuesday morning we rai-ed anchor and started for home. On neai ing Swan Island some one proposed that we f-top and get some bird pres. when all at once agreed. When Swan Island was reached the boats were low ernd and some five or six went ashore. It was about noon and perfectly calm. .... u hen tiioc landed they found it t" I" ,,, v'-s na- n it.
