The l'rogres-ive Farmer makes the following timely and sensible suggestions : A pol.t'cal campaign will soon he upon us, and we wish to bay a word in the interest of decency and on behalf ol the dignity and moral character of oar people. We,do not believe that public morality has so degenerated that it is necessary to the success of a candidate or of a party, that the opposing candidate or party should be vulihed, aouseu, maiigned and slandered. Especially is it repugnant to common decency, as well aa to a sense ot common jus 1 tine, to prowl around the back yards ouu kuui up ioo v ! generations past, witn wnicn to blacken the character of a candi - dat. We bare too much person - ality in latter-day politics. Personal ahnA ami 111 :i rh cm a rd i s m ii not .v.b argument, auu it says nttie ior a man who aspires to honorable posi tion, and little for the respect he has for the good sense anil moral culture oi those whom he hopes to influence, when he can rise no higher in the presentation of his chiims and the claims ot his party, than the plane on which he would find his equal, if not superior, in the champion of a brothel or some black den of infamy. Let the pres and the good men of all parties dis countenance, discourage and disown this disgusting habit among our politicians, and select a high, moral tvpe of manhood to fill public posi tions. And in this good year ol our Lord is a most convenient op portunity to begin this healthful work. A Capital Kebnke. A distinguished Presbyterian editor from Chicago has been in the South. Ij giving an account of a visit to Richmond, Ya.,he gives his impression of services held by the celebrated Kev. Dr. Hoge, whose sermon he sayH was the finest he ever beard. The Doctor holds spe cial services for the lowest class of the population tbe very refuse of civilization. We copy a part of the editor's very interesting letter because of the rebuke he got for being a meddler which is eo char actertifltic of the North : "I looked over the audience, ex pecting here to find a fair propor tion of black faces not one I a face that had a shade of black in it and the disappointment was pain fal. Are the black lost sheen to bei left to be eaten bv the wolves T On retnrning to the hotel I found a . brother who is eiTing his time to, children's work and asked him :; Why were there no negroes out to hear Dr. Hoge tonight! Do you propose down here to bar them out j ol ear shot of Christ, even in the i streetsT" My friend turned to me ! with a lift e i cfianrfl in his eve : a little uenance in nis eye : 'Did you ever see a mixetl religious meeting of negroes and Irish in Chicago V I had to answer no. 'The low down class of whites,' he said, 'would be the very last to acknowledge the manhood of the colored man. The thing would not he possible here.' And then he con- j tinned on the aggressive: "Do your j great preachers go out and gather 1 up the Bohemians and Poles, thej socialists and anarchists, the drunk- j en and depraved, and preach to them like that V I could not claim . mnch on that Fcore. 'Well then ' i he said, 'hetiever your northern their children with foolish restne gentlemen have your own work well tions. We pity the little B's, our in hand come down and tell us how 1 next door neighbor's children, lrom to run ours.' But, my Iriend con- the bottom of our heart. There is tinned to inform me, the colored ' a picket fence in front of t he house, people themselves withdrew from - and they are scarcely allowed to go ns at the close o? the war. They '. "ear it, lest they should climb and dismissed the white preachers, ' hait 'themselves. They cannot withdrew from the white churches, climb a tree lor the same reason, and formed churches of their own, They may not skate or swim, n qti.I tli.n- it nf f hoir rvtrn vntitinn have a JTUI). The COnSeoUelHe ol aud it is all right. As slaves they were members in all our churches. In the church where I was raised, they had one side of it to them selves, and white people were not allowed to crowd them or drive them out, when the church was over full. We want them to pros per, of course we do, and there are the kindest feelings, and we help them all we can.' " It is really remarkable how anx ious the Northern nreaehers of all i the churches are "to run" the Southern religious denominations. They do not give the negroes any equal chance in the North even in religions matters, as we have showu often, and aa to the trades the col ored man is in disfavor and heavily handicapped from the start. Ask any fairly intelligent colored me chanic In the South today who has spent some portion of his time in the North, and he will tell you that colored mechanics have a poor showing in the North. They are . exclusive in their church operations and relations as any people in the world, but they are anxious to have all barries broken down in the South and whites and negroes mingled in the same organizations. The Chicago editor received a se . . . . vere but conrteous reboke, and we copy it with ranch satisfaction.- v Umington frtar. ""- The strikers on the Burlington system do not seem to be making much pro- n . . All of tbe mail trains are run ning without interruption and the Chi cago suburban service is in full opera tion. Large numbers of Knights of Labor engineers and firemen are going forward to take the places of the Brotherhood, but express themselves as willing to return when the latter are called off from the Reading and Brook lyn elevated roads.

He w.ks entirely satisfied from his observation here that if the South expected any aid in this matter some other method than that proposed by Mr. Blair wou'd have b.- b- ssed.

The latter clas were unwilling to vote again.-: the b.l! on account of their constituent-, aid :.::.l!:ng to vote for it ag...n a the:.- envie tions of eonstitution.d objections. These, he thought, were powerful enough to prevent its considera tion.) For himself he did not be long to either e!a-s and would be glad of an opportunity to vote h r Mr. Blair's bill, but a- a practical man he saw no u-e id' nursing a hope which could not be realized. nv momhpr nt- ( 1-1 -i reiiilil , teI1 vou there wa. no" chiincc tor the Bia:r bill.

Major Latham w dl appear before the Committee on Kivers and Harbors Wednesday in the interest of streams and harbors in his dis trict, including the subject of in land navigation. Senator Vance introduced bill (heretolore alluded to as having been introduced in the House bv Mjor Latham) for the relief ot the legal representativ -1 ot Col. John uaptista Ashe. Senator Vance's speech on the Tariff question which he got in as an "aside" in the debate on the Nicaragua Canal bill, was highly relished both ou the floor and in the galleries. It was very funny and put the lb-publicans in a ridiculous attitude. I lie oullmi are telegraphed b the As.-"cjated Press. He spuke lor seven or eight minutes.

It is as natural to a child to be happy as it is to a tish to swim. But for this they need a certain amount of "letting alone." It is a great mistake ior parents ro namper this training isth.it their pau-nts have made cowaid id' them ail. with the exception ot little Bessie, who is the must daring little mis chief that ever wore a sun -bonnet, and she has learned to he deceitful and plays all her mad pr.n.l; wi 11 out of eight of her fiaii-nts' e es. We caught her the other day walk ing the railing of a bridge that crossed the track of a railroad a hundred feet below. The railing was not a foot wide, and she triumphantly ; told us th t she ha,1 walked it while the train was pass ing under. It was tnotigh to make one shudder. Don't fancy your boy is made of glass. Grant a reasonable ieijuest. and let him feel that when ou re fuse, it is for his own good. Be tween the dellybys and the Grad grinds of life, children have a hard time of it. The youngest child needs some sort, of agreeable occu pation, and a certain amount of physical freedom. There is noting more painful to voung people than to feel that life is one dull routine, and that "nothing ever happens,"' as we once heard a disconsolate lad remark.

Several public bequests are made, and some to personal friends and servants, and the remainder of the estate is left in trust for his three grandchildren. What Congress is Doln?. Washington, I. C. Feb. -JO, '--. J his was a field day in the House. Early in the day the House went into committee ot the whole on the bill to authorize the Sociedan of the Treasury to invest the surplus in the Treasury in the purchase cf l S. bonds. The argument waxed warm at times, the Democrats sup porting and the Republicans op posing the measure. Mr. Mills lead oil' v;;h a statement and Messrs. B roc k r e n r i d ge if Ke n t u c k y , H oo k e r .lad Randa.l ekap.K-inly urged the passage of the bill, while M rs. Keed, McKinley and Kelle , on the Kepublicaii .side, fought it bitterly. The bill was finally passed without a division. Mr. liaudall let drop .-.0111 e intimation that the Potnoera cy would be uuiteel on the policy ui' dispensing with the surplus if they would proceed from a Randall :a:;dpoint. Mr. Simmons, your active member, has been getting in some good work recently. His se lection on the ir.ttioual committe has already given him prominence here and added to his growing in - lluence. Besides his public build ing bill, which may yet get through, he appeared this week before the committee on rivers and harbors in the interest of increased appropria tions for rivers and harbors in his district. He urged that fcimer appropriations have been inade quate to an economical prosecution of the work, and especially laid stre-s upon the gieat importance, from a local and national stand point, id' a proper appropriation for the line of inland navigation lrom New Berne to Beaufort harbor. In this he has been earnestly assisted by -Maj. Latham of the first who is deeply inteiested and who appealed before the committee to day. Mr. Simmons also introduced bills for the survey and estimates of the cost of cleaning out and im proving White Oak river, Swift creek and Fishing creek, From now on 1 will be able to keep you posted as to his efforts in behalf 'd his constituents. The new tariff hill will be given to the press tomorrow, it is not all we could wish, as I gather from what has leaked out, but a long step in the right direction. You will get it in full. Mr. Corcoran's will was hied to-; day. Besides minor bequests he gives 10,000 to the art gallery that bears his name, and 50.000 to that nobis charity, the Louise Home. lhe i resident speaks very plea.- antly of his Florida trip.

Mr. yteven- son of his own State is far stronger. The best impression here is that the real man is not being boomed C. now I'uriug a Fair H ypocliondriac. Among the guests of a fashiona ble uptown boarding bouse is a cnarmmg married woman wno en- j0yd the most robust health, but who until recentlv made her Iriends and neighbors believe that she was a suffering woman and endured all the ills and complaints to be found in a medical encyclopedia. She would come down to breaklast every morning, and would at once begin to narrate the story ol her painful suffering during the previ ous night. One day it would be neuralgia, the next bronchitis, and so on until apparently almost every portion cr her body was all'ected. W hile she was generally admired for her mental aud social qualities, still the monotonous recitals finally became an affliction to her friends. They prayed for deliverance and then set about devising a scheme to e licet it. A large sheet of fools cap paper was hung up in one coi ner of the large dining room and headed in large letters: '-Bulletin of Mrs. 's health," Every time the lady was heard to make a complaint some "one would sneak up aud record it on the sheet. At the end of two weeks the list of ailments covered the entire sheet, and t he most remarkable feature of it was that no two of the com plaints w ere alike. The fair suf ferer's attention had never been drawn to the daily record of her health until the bottom line -of the sheet was filled. It was then thai she was led courteously to the cor ner to read the pitiful story of her sufferings. The humorous side atlected her forcibly, and she broke out into a merry peal of laughter. She was cured. New Yoik Even ing Sun. A .Matter for Tlionsrlit. ItuaJs. Good roads not only save horse flesh, but vehicles. Take what are ordinarily callled "good roads'' and bad roads," and a vehicle used on the fiesh only will last twice as long, I at least, as one used on the latter only. No one can doubt that country roads would be fifty per cent, better than they now are, if the labor aud money put upon them were properly applied. How to have that work and money propely applied is the matter to be discussed now, that the best methods may be ready for adoption when the season for road making comes. Whether or not the road bed should be only surface drained, or underdrained, with tile, or by putting in a corduroy founda tion; whether or not gravel c r plank should be used: how best to use gravel, or plank, or tile these are points to be decided before Spring. The farmers' club should also d.s- cuss specifically the repair of each hignway in the neighborhood. This will lead, among other things, to an understanding whether or not it will be proper to shorten a highway by straightening it; whether a road that now goes around a hill should be carried over it by grading down the hill, or whether making a road longer by carrying it around a hill will be compensated for by the less grade; how to keep weeds from growing in the highways, to seed the adjacent land, and many other points which, thus being settled. ' ,, . ,, b. "''t would greatly add to the improve- rnent Of the roads. STOCK rKEMIl' tt MSI or tux 1 l - Fair. Ne-. ii ' . - i e -.Jitr n S.
