We haveBu jt8 endearing associations to nothir to conceal IT3 OBJECT. The object and purpose of this organization, in the language of our constitution is uto improve the condition o f the farmers and to pro mote the interests of agriculture." The undersigned committee, ap pointed in porsnaaoe of the resolu tion quoted a bore, beg respectfully to submit briefly for your careful aud earnest thought some of the considerations which prompted this movement. The agriculturists ol this country constitute 51 per cent of all those engaged in the various occupations and pay 80 per cent of the taxes of the country. Last year oar domee e i ports amounted to 1726,000,000, Of which t.530,000,000, or 73 per cent of the whole, were the products of agriculture. What is done by the government to encourage and foster this great source of its wealth and powerl What is doue to uphold and strengthen the hands of those who feed and clothe its sixty mil lious of people and the products ol , whose labor and skill constitute the j very lite of its commerce) Flow does it compare with other govern mentst In ISSo, France, for the promotion of her agricultural inter ests, appropriated t'JO,000,000; Bra zil flL',000,000; liusia i 11 ,000,000; Austria $5,000,000; Japan $1,000, OOO and the United States gave (G00,00 to tho support of our National Department of Agricul tare. Paring the past six years, from 18S1 to 188(5 inclusive, our government has appropriated 12, 482,700 (about one-ninth of the amount given by France in one year) and a sum about snfficieut to pay for the eggs which were im ported luto this country in 1S-S.". The legislative branch of our government should be the guardian power to which we should look, for encouragement and protection. Of whom is it composed! Of the 401 members of the House and Senate oftheU.y. Congress only eleven farmers are found on the roll! Odd representative to every G97,.'U7 jer sona engaged in agriculture. Fvery 10,70 physicians have a represon tative in Congress every '.M bank official.-' have one -every 18.S rail road oftioals have oue every lawyers and profes.-uon.il holders h.ive one; or to st. d;tYerontj : the T.oTu. r.i.; agricul ttir iiists of the country hive only 11 representatives m Congress, while the physicians have S; bank presidents 15; railroad oflici.iU 11; ami the lawyers and professional ofliee holders have :;o7; or fir-uv fii'kt tim-tur.il..-:.s.

It is the mighty power that is moving tho world the very essence ot progress. We must not eauiiot longer ignore this ower ful agenry, so effectually employed by all otlior interests for their pro Vnotion and advancement. It is a law of Nature a law of (rod that must be systemized, consolidated ami directed by organization. All clashes and all interests, except one. throughout tho civilized world recognize its potency and are fos tered, encouraged and strengthened and protected by it. find that im.' is agriculture the greatest and most important ot' all. Miners, printers, mechanics, artizans, pro lexsionals, merchants, tradesmen, manutacturers, speculator?, ship pers, bankers, railroads, each and all have their organizations. They each have a common principle of .u-tion. They each know that "in union there is strength." We, as tarmerx, are segregated, isolated, divided and a helpless prey to all who may take advantage of us. W it hour, organization wo cannot co erate and without co-operation wo win iiave no svsteni, without .system we can have nothing Look at the miserable character of cm ployed labor in our State today. Utterly unmanageable and almost worthless and daily growing worse. The South is the only agricultural community in the civilized world where lalwr controls and shapes the policy of the land owners. Why I Simply because there is no co-operation of effort on the part of tue farmers to direct and control it Beek a home elsewhere. With Buch a state of things need we wonder that our sons seek the vil lages, towns and cities, to avoid the slavery and drudgery of con tact with such labor with all its attendant trials and vexations! With such a state of things need ire wonder that many of our most j enterprising farmers, owners of fine lands, should take their money and , their families to the towns to edn cate their children t With such a state of things need we wonder that to a large majority of our farmers life is burdened with care and "vexation of spirit'' instead of the bright, cheerful, hopeful, happy exiatence that God designed it should bet Without system, with out co-operation, without organiza tion, how can we hope to command or enforce respect for our rights ! With classes, communities, states and nations, as with indi viduals, they must show that they respect themselves before they can hope or expect to enjoy the respect ol otherH. We often complain, and justly, that onr rights and in terests are ignored, but do we put forth any effort to prevent it! Take, as an illustration, any of the creat nnestions of industrial ecouo my in which we, as farmers, are directly and vitally concerned, questions which iu their dignity rise above considerations of a meTe partisan character, and how are tho views and wishes of t he farmers to fiud expression and have in fluence t Manv ol lis In-lieve that our pub lie road system should and could be -iifltiv init.mtu.i i We believe, too, that, our convict labor should be employed on tilt ' public roads of the State, thereby removing it from the lield ol com vetition with honest free latsjr, and con tilling it to a work so greatly needed iu the State and where it would be a direct rel lef to e very I tax-payer of the State. But how are we to formulate our views and impre them .'V organized act iun. Agaiu: We lielieve that the time has arrived when North Caro lina should have an Agricultural College, where the vouth of the 'joy i State may acquire practical knowl oftice ! edge and be fitted by proper tr. un ite it ing for the vocations they in, is till 111 the various branches ot 1 ndii-t r .

Another Shock of Earthquake at Charleston. CliAULKSTiiN. S. C. Sept. 2. Shortly afjer 1 o'clock thi.- afteraoon the city was vipited by another shock of earttr iuake. w hicli alarmed the entire city. Houses were xhaken. ami the inmates ran out into the streets. The disturb ance was similar in its movement to that of lust evening, and it was quite severe. The movement was apparently hoi y. on tul and 1 1 about five seconds. It was arcompai.. by the usual horri ble subterranean . -owl. with which this peonle have become so familiar The recurrence of thee shocks on the eve of the ilay designated by Wiggins lor his great earthquake has had a most demoralizing rlfect upon the people, and many of tht.ru will take to the squares Uinight rather than risk sleep ing in their houses. Unfortunately the shelter committee have taken down many tents, and as a consequence many ieople will have to sleep in the open air. What has added to the general terror is the fact that last night there was an unusual meteoric display from 9 till 11 o'clock. The heavens seemed to be alive with shooting stars. Exactly ' what connection there is between a me teoric storm and an earthquake it is im possible to say. but in this afflicted city j be remembered that it is now just four weeks since Charleton8 awful calam- all signs point to disaster, and it must uy came. Many tim id people have left the city, dreading the day designated by Wiggius for the great shock, and . even among those who remain a feeling ' of uneasiness prevails. There has been ' but little interruption in the work of ; repairing the damages, and business ap- pears to be going on in its usual chan- nels. The shock at 1 today, so far as is , known here, does not seem to have been felt outside of Charleston. Some people , aver that shocks were felt last night at 2 a.m. and 4 a.m., and there is little doubt but that there were slight tremors : UIP IU1 f - "7, . " they were not sufficiently sharp to nwafce the slumbering people, although ihey were feltat Summerville. Calamities certainly do not visit this afflicted city singly. The earthquake ""oc vouay w as preceueu u.0uu a fatal accident, which are rather an accumulation of incidents for a city of 60.000 inhabitants. The fire fortunately was not destructive, owing principally to the fact that the fire department is still camping out and that the engines, men, and horses are constantly on the alert. It broke out in a quarter of the city entirely composed of wooden houses, and would have proved disas trous but for the quick response of the department. At 11 a.m. a house in Bedon's alley, which had been shattered by the earth quake, but the lower floor of which was still occupied by colored tenants, fell in and crushed a colored woman, who was subsequently dug out of the ruins and sent to the hospital fatally injured. Charleston, S. C Sept. 28. A se rere earthquake shock was felt here at eight minutes past one this afternoon. Il lasted ab ut one and a half seconds. It was from north to south and Bhook nearly all the houses in the city, the vibration being very perceptible in wooden houses. Scientists say these shocks will keep up for an indefinite time, and that there is nothing alarming in the recurrence of shocks. There were three slight shocks at Summerville to day, but no damage was done. Washington, Sept. 2S. A telegram was received at the Treasury Depart- ! menttodav from Mr. Devereaux. super- intendent of the custom-house at Char leston 8.

Thirteen mounds are assigned for the motion, among them the alleged d i-covery of new evidence, misbehavior of jurors and improper rulings of the court. The motion is supported by eight affidavits.

Our farmers complain that their cot ton is not only short, but they fear that their corn crops are much shorter than they expected. Ther is considerable dissatisfaction in the Republican circles over some of their nominees. Dock Cox says that he is a candidate for register of deeds, and w ill show- to the people that lie is the choice of the Republicans of Jones county. We see in Tuesday 's Jouilnwl Col. Whitford "s 'card stating that he had been nominated by a mass meeting in Carteret and would address the people of Jones in order to obtain their views on the subject. After reading his card I took especial pains to enquire of the different representative men of the sev eral parts of the county what were their views of his course. Every one to a man deprecated the course he was pur suing; said that Dr. Sanders was nomi nated by the regularly called conven tion of Carteret county and that his nomination had been ratified bv the Senatorial convention regularly called at Polloksville, and that they should advise every good Democrat to support Dr. Sanders. This is the sentiment of Jones county Democracy, both rank and hie. and Col. Whitford will find it so on Monday next. Our Senatorial candidate, Dr. Sanders, 1 met the people at Trenton on Tuesday last and addressed them in a fine speech which was well received. The people of Jones are perfectly united and will ! in November give him a heavy vote, j true ring of the old Democratic metal. F. M. Simmons, onr candidate for Congress, addressed our people when Dr. Sanders had concluded, in an able and masterly effort. It ia useless for me to say how his speech was received. Our people are somewhat like the old church man; when he was asked during church class how he was getting along, "Why," says he, "brother, no need talking to me; lam ready to go now.

Smith, Esq. Study on, gents; he can get a better vote than any man in Jones county. Would it not be a good idea for us to select some one for the treasurer's office who would and could be independent of speculators in giving his bond? and it ought to be a gentleman who is a good financial man- ager of his own business at home.

" He says the consumption of intoxicants in Germany per head is four i - L, 0 i th T'niH R,M I himnfl as prpat aq in the I nited States. yet there are a thousand hopeless , drunkards in the United States to ten in Germany. The difference arises largely, he says, if not entirely, from the manner of drinking in vogue in the two countries. "This science of drink ing," he writes, "consists simply in the ; tardiness of drinking. All drinks are ; taken sip by Bip. a half or three-quar- ; ters of an hour being consumed for a glass of beer. This is so simple that one is liable to ridicule for laying stress upon it, and yet on this point hinges, in my opinion, a question of 1 vast importance to Americans. By this manner of drinking the blood is aroused to greater activity in so gradual a man- 1 ner that there is no violent derange ment of the animal economy. By slow drinking the German accomplishes the object of drinking, and gives his ani mal economy a chance to say. "Hold, enough," which only slow drinking will do. " Mr. Tanner says that since his arrival in Germany he has his "first glass of water to see drunk. "Balti more Sh 11. A Big Labor Split. The long-pienil ing difficulties between Typographia, No. 1. of Philadelphia, and the Tageblatt, the German labor or gan in that city, provoked a heated dis czssion in the Central Labor Union Sun day afternoon, which resulted in the withdrawal of three of the most influ ential unions heretofore represented in the central body.

Only two unions of any consequence remain in the union. Thev are the Cigarmakers' Interna tional Union. No. 100, and the Carpen ters and JoiDers' Union. No. It is said that at the regular meetings of these two unions their delegates will also be instructed to withdraw. This action was precipitated by the nomina tion of Julius Froelich. who is con nected with the Tageblatt. as one of the trustees of the Central Union.

' The proposition to widen the boun daries of Chicago bo as to include the important suburbs of Hyde Park, Lake and Lake View, is again seriously die cussed, and it is probable that before the taking of the next federal census H the outlying districts, extending nearly to the limits of Cook county north and south, and the Desplaines river on the i west, will be included within the- city. The lines which .separate the. towns mentioned from Chicago are imaginary. but their existence compels the m&fti , tenance of four district police jurisdic tions, taxation bureaus and legisl&iiro boards. If the boundaries of -the city are extended to the extreme lines men tioned, the city territory will be eighteen miles long by eleven miles wide, giving the city a present population of about 900,000.

He had form ally announced that he would-,, row -Beach upon American waters at any time, but it had never been accepted. No sooner than he had reached the big city he issued a challenge to row Beaoh 1 on the Thames for any sum up to 125,000, or if he would row him in America and give him $10,000 if beaten, or vice versa, he would row him in Australia, if he, Beach, was beaten, to give Hanlan $10,000. None of the challenges were accepted, and they parted, Hanlan be ing much annoyed by Beach calling him a gas bag. ' " - Prof. E. S.
