Senator Vanck has delivered an uiMres.s on "True Democrat'" be fore tbeCrescent Clnbof Baltimore, .i report of which we publish below a. taken from the Baltimore Sn. The subject a proper one for dis cussion. We often he.xr the iiues tiou asked. What is the difference between the Kepu iI nan and the Democratic parties '" Many think it i simply a tight for the spoils of' office, The difference letweeii the parties should Ih i-leaily iletined and kept lefore the people. It should lx so defined that lth parties s;!l accept it as a diffeicnee in vital principles. It will not do to simply say the Democrat ic party is the party of honesty aud economy and tbe Republican party the party i of dishonesty aud plunder, because 1 this wonld only be accepted by one !aud denied by the other, and evi jdence rould be pnxlnced to how that there is not such a great da ! ferenee in this re.iect. It there 'are two sret parties seeking the coutrol of tbe government there oaght to b honest different But wo. if there is no dinerence in tht damental principles of the theo it is a iue.-t ion ol economical ' administration of the laws, and charges o! extravagance, plunder and rasc-aluv become rampaigu thuuder for Uilh.

It I kaa the nsisaion, now that reason 1 eetpt of 1 120,000,000 revenue, ( on gree-s was cailed upon to use tne power to promote a class interest in the passage of the oleomargarine bill.

Can the government crash ont one man to put money in tbe pockets of an othert If that is so, then oar gov ernment ot a despotism more than that of Jtoasia. We add hypocrisy, sham and meanness to the crime and tyranny. "Another abuse is a protective tariff. It means the exercise of power, not to pot money into the treasury, but to help an individual to make money. The power of the government by the constitution is x protect citizens againt direct robbery in high protective tariffs, or indirect robbery delegated to corporatioDs. The government moat protect the public against all class legislation and the exactions of unrestrained corporate powers. "IJdo not wish ro be understood to be in sympathy with communism and aaarcby. We cannot prevent inequalities in society, nor shonld we do so, if we could, when they come naturally. It is a moral law that tbe diligent, sober, indus tnouil man shall meet with the reward of reaping the good things of tbe world, while the drunken and the spendthrift shall come to ruin. But this class legislation ol ooe kind or another has berime common that I conceive it to t the great danger before us. 'We have come short of ur pro j feesioos.

You can't get that tax down Ivecaase we have Democrats consenting to it, because you don't purge the Democratic party, and we never will have the streets of Jerusalem cleaned until every mau is compelled to sweep before his own door." FAKXER.V ORGANIZATIONS The farmers throughout the State are organizing clubs. We have beard ol none in this imme diate section, but we presume they will catch on after awhile and Weep pace with their fellow tarraers iu others sections. Where is tbe Beach drove Club of Craven, and the lousin Swamp Club of Lenoir! Where is Kati .v, who was to infuse new life into tbe Patrons of Hus bandry and revive the Grange in every neigh Dor noociT nereis uie flnent, logical and practical Pd.K, the editor of the Frogre$ire Farmer, the larmer's organ, who was to come all tbe way from Winston to tell the farmers of their duty! He has infused a spirit of enterprise . among the farmers in tbe Piedmont 'section which is worthy to be lol lowed b others, lie speaks to many through bis excellent pax'r i bat our eastern farmers would like to see him in perswn and bear it from bis lips. In the last issue of the Farmer he tells ns of some of the good tbe clubs are doing. Our fne'id Katon says these clnbe are only steDDine atones to the Orance. ' He thinks the Grange is the organ ' nation for the farmers and we con i fess that we think he is about right. But see what Col Pi.k io even tne cuai re ocr u, w.e club proceeding, which appear in this paper from week to week, it must be apparent that they are doine trood to onr farmers in eet ting them to thinking, talking and ! set in g. These discussions, as tbey j "ppear each week, convey a large imOQDl Ol vaiUDIB lOlormnuon auu instruction in condensed form, giv ing tbe result of experience of practical, not merely theoretical, farmers. In this way the dabs are j educators, in addition to which they excate a spirit of emulation i between tbe members of the respec-1 tive dab, which cannot bat prove beneficial. There is another feature, an eco nomic one, in these dubs, which j shonld make every farmer anxious i to join them. As an illustration of this, tbe Mountain Creek Club, in i Richmond coanty, aa appears from j their report published last week, j saved 1,(N0 to its members last; year on purchases, which shows bow the members of that prosper- j ous and wide awake cluo have saved money. In addition to this thev are erecting a clnb hoase, the foan dation of which, Jaa. A. Ingram, tbe basiness manager, writes ns, was laid last week. Here is an i example in basiness, thrift and management for other dabs to follow, all of which can do as well if they try. This is not the only dub, however, which has saved money by appointing purchasing committees. Some of the clubs in this coanty, and others in other .unties, have made oarchases in this way and have saved consider able money. Tbe club is a good thing for the farmers, and will grow better and more beneficial aa the members become more experienced and the organizations more thorough. Geneeai- Bovlanoee, the French minister of war, denies tbe correctness of the war rumors that have been so abundantly circulated by the .English prss for the last two weeks. The press is charged with circulating these bellicose canards for tbe purpose of influenc ing the stock market. c t. I.

A con-titution and b s weie adopted, and the first step has been well taken toward a useful org. mi ration of the farmers of" the State, which looks .(r into the future, the fanners ol all the cotton States having been invited by resolution, to rooerate with the organization of North Carolina farmers and appoint meeting places foi general con fereuces.

Dependent in a great measure on the trade of : the I nited States for their prosper i ity. they have constantly pursued ; a policy oi bluster towards their powerful neighbor instead of a policy of conciliation. Their object i has been to force a misnamed reciprocity," with the advantages' largely on their side, instead of such a fair and equitable commer cial treaty between t he tyvo coun tries as would advance the interests of both and create those friendly' ft clings yhicli would be the best i guarantee ot an honest observance' of obligations on both sides. Sometime ago the Canadian Par Lament enacted a I.iyv yyhich authorized the seizure of American vessels, in violation ol what we i consider our rights under t lie l reaty liii' PP. The Governor General of the Dominion lelt so much doubt about the propriety and exiedieney : oftheactth.it he yvithheld his sig nature and referred it to the Home Government. Before the new law was made complete by the Royal approval, American vessels were seied under its provisions, without a shatlow of legality. Subsequently the act received the ueen's ap proval. This is reituiiiiy provocation enough to prompt some decisive movement on the part ot the Gov ernment ol the Fnited States, either through the President or Congress. The Administration has done noth ing but -protest," while in the face ol its expostulations the objection-, able law received the Koyal assent. Congress now arts through the law winch authorizes the President to retaliate lor Canadian injustice to our fishing vessels by closing Amer ican ports to Canada's trade. Theiois nothing of bullying bluster about this course. It measuie entirely ; ut iliable oiieyihu'li Canada ran control Ann i ic. in vessels are fairly i with and treaty obligations aud is a aud .

Author of Gardening for Profit," in an arti cle on Seeds and Seed liaising in the .Drican Arn iilturist for Feb ruary, writes: li there is ouo thing of para mount importance in vegetable gardening it is purity of seed; and for this reason the seed offered by seedsmen should be tested not only for its germinating qualities, but for its genuineness of kind. Tha test ot germination is easy enough, and there is rarely any trouble with that: but to be certain that the variety is true to its kind, is a matter requiring time and a know ledge of varieties. Thirty years ago the market gar deners grew nearly all their own seeds, as in those days we had hardly any seedsmen who knew anything about varieties, aud con sequently the market gardeners dared not risk their crops in buy ing from them. I remember on one occasion the seed crop of our indispensable Wakefield Cabbage tailed with nearly all of us. There was only one man among us who had had foresight enough to have a two years' supply; I offered him 50 per pound, but could not procure an ounce from him, and as no one cared to risk the seed stores in those days for Wakefield Cabbage seed, he had the whole field to himselt. He planted nearly ten j acres with this variety, which com ing in some eight or ten days earli- , er than anything else, he made aj little fortune by his being able to ! have a niouopoply ol the seed. That is now over thirty years ago, but I have never known a Jersey gardener to be out of Wakefield Cabbage seed since, and not know where to get P. INJUSTICE CORRECTED. j I Convincing Verification of Widecast j ; "Public; Statements. j TO THBEADK!S OF TIIKjui'BNAL In cofamoa with many publishers and editors, we have been accus tomed to look upon certain state ments whtcb we have seen iu our columns as merely adroit adver tising. Consequently we feel justified iu Caking the liberty of printing a few points from a private letter recent ly received from one of our largest patrons, as a sort of confession of faith to our reader-. We quote : "We have convinced ourselves that by telling what we know to be I irnc we navu proaucea at last a permanent conviction in tbe public I miu(1- Seven years ago we stated j wljat the national disease ot this! country was, and that it was rapid-; iy inrTeuxintj. i.nree years ago we stated that a marked check bad been given it. "The statistics of one of the largest life insurance eompauies of this country shows that iu 1883 and IS'!, the mortality from kid ney disorders did not increase over tbe previous years: other compa nies stated the same thiug. It is not presumptuous for us to claim credit Jor chcckiiifi these ravages. "Seven ye.irs ago we stated that ' the condition of the kidneys was the key to the condition of health: within the past live years nil care fvll lift inxurancr companies have couccded the truth of this state ment, for, whereas, ten years ago, chemical analysis to determine the! condition of the kidneys was not required, to-day millions of dollars in risks arc rcuscd, because chemi cal examination discovers unxitx-pct-ted diseases of the kidneys. "Seven years ago we stated that the ravages of Bright's Disease welt; insignificant compared with ' other unsuspected disorders of the kidneys of many misleading names; 'that ninety-three per cent, of hu man ailments are attributable to j deranged kidneys, which tills the kidnev blood with uric acid, or ' poison, which causes the.-e many atal diseases. 'The uric acid, or kidney po:.sou, is the real cah.se of the majority of cases of paralysis, apoplexy, heart disease, convulsions, pneumonia, 1 consumption, and insanitv; over half the victims of consumntion aie" lirst the victims of diseased kidneys. 4iW'hen the recent death of an honored ex-oflicial of the United !

"If the doctors would state in official reports the original cause of death, the people of this country would be alarmed, yea, nearly panic stricken, at the fearful mor tality from kidney disorders." The writers of the above let '.er give these facts to the public sim ply to justify the claims that they hare made, that "if the kidneys and liver are kept in a healthy condi tion by the use of Warner's safe cure, which hundreds of thousands have proved to be a specific, when all other remedies failed, aud that has received the endorsement of the highest medical talent iu Purope, Australasia and America, many a life would be prolonged and the happiuess of the people preserved. It is successful with so many different diseases because it and it alone, can remove the uric acid from the blood through the kidneys." Our readers are familiar with the preparation named. Commendation thereof has often appeared in our columns. We believe it to be one of :be best, if not the best ever mauutac tured. Wo know the propri etors are men of character and influence. W'e are certain they have awakened a yvide-spread interest in the public mind concerning the importance of the kidneys. We believe with them that they are the key to health, and that for their restoration from disease and main tenance in health, there is nothing equal to this great remedy. "The proprietors say they "do not glory in this uuiversal preval ence of disease, but having started out with the purpose of spreading the merits of Warner's safe cure before the world, because it cured our senior propridor, rho ;ras given up by doctors as incurable, ive feel it our duty to state the facts and leave the public to its own inler ences. We point to our claims, and to their public and universal vei i ticat ion with pride, and if the public does not believe what we say, wo tell them to ask their friends and neighbors what they think about our preparations."
