POLITICS AM) BlSlNK.Vs. Legislation m this conntr is generally shaped by political par : ties, and however much individuals and communities may desire to keep their business out of politics, vet it is clear and undeniable that legislation which is the outcome of political organizations in many in stances directly affects the busi ness ,.f the individual and com munity.

Hat the recent aanoancment in the Haleigh News and Observer that Governor Jarvis will not return from I'razil until December, compels us to abandon the hope of his being the candi J ate. The extension of this ro.nl is cecvftsary for the development of our corn trade and the fish ;nd oyster industn .

KlIian JevaSAl. : A late issue of your paper informs me that llou. Tho.. J. Jarvis will not Lh a candi date for the gubernatorial nomina tion. We, in common with nine tenths of the Democracy of the Last, regret it. We did hope and expect that he wonld be a candi date, .v we are anxious for a Gov ernor who would not le "agin us.' The ij aestion now i who is the next best man lor us The Demo crats of the Ka.st want an Kastern man, one they can tie to and de pend upon, one who is not pledged to or interested in any railroad syndicate whatever. If you can uamr such a man in the I'.ast the people would like to hear it. We have in our mind a man in the West npon whom the East can rely ; we mean the Hon. John A. Gilmer. He learned, while geog raphy lit bchool, that there is a good seaport in North Carolina known as Beaufort harbor, which is more than some of the leading politicians in the West seem to have ever learned, or if they have ever learned it their knowledge has been of little use to the Hast. We feel persuaded if John A. Gilmer is elected to the governorship of the State that railroad matters will be so arranged that the people of the interior and the West will have sure, untrammeled and cheap trans nrtation to the Hast. 1 )P.Mc '('RAT.

Jones County Item. The lrenton bridge needs some repair as there are several holes in it. Corn is remarkably scarce with ns and commands a very good price. The river has fallen and the fishermen are having a good time catching sh:ul. Labor n very plentiful with us this year, notwithstanding many have gone into t he timber business. The timber men have carried up the price of fodder which sells readily at the stack for one dollar per cwt. The busiest of our citizens are the farmers who are utilizing every hour of this tine weather planting and preparing their crops. Spring cacklings are very nu merous now with the farmers' hens and eggs hnve dropped to eight cents per dozen in trade at Trenton. Hog cholera has about ceased around Trenton, bnt we learn that it hts broken ont afresh near l'ol loksville on the north side of the river. The merchants at Trenton are having a real dull time now, as the farmers are too busy to go to Tren ton. F.ut as the river is getting in good condition for catching perch can't they have a real nice time with their fishing tackle. Our Republican friends have been organizing lor the last two months in this county, and our Democratic friends are making politics have a little simmering. Humor has it that there are lots of aspirants for the Senate in Jones this year among the Democratic brethren. We are inclined to be lieve from what is croppingout that Mr. L. J.

The pork and dour stolen from tin steamers' warehouse at Tren ton which I mentioned in my last items, was found secreted in the wo id- atvout loo yard-, from the main road about one mile above Trenton on Monday the I'd of April. A guard was placed over it who re mained by it until a few hours be lore day Tuesday morning when a heavy thunder storm came up and they all lelt it to find shelter from the storm, ami when they returned to their post found the thieves had taken advantage of their absence and had opened one barrel of the (Krk and earned it all off but one layer, and also opened one of the barrels of floor and carried part of it away.

From it we ij lote the following: 'While the head men are gathered in a little knot, planning out the work, the others are dispersed over the plain in every direction, racing, breaking rough horses, or simply larking with one another. If a man has an especially bad horse, he usually takes snch an opportunity, when he has plenty of time, to ride him: and while saddling he is sur rounded bv a cri.iudol most un sympathetic associates who greet with uproarious mirth any misad venture. A man on a buok'ng horse is always consi leted fair game, every squeal and jump ol the bronco being hailed ith cheers of delighted irony for the rider and shouts to 'stay with him."

I'p rises the bronco's back into an arch: his head, the ears laid straight back goes down between his fore feet, and, squeal ing savagely, he makes a succession of rapid, stitl'-Iegged. jarring bounds Sometimes he is a -plunging' bucker, who runs forward all the tune while bucking; or he may buck steadily in one place, or suntish,' that is, bring lirst one shoulder down al most to the ground and then the other. or else he may change ends while in the an .

He who starts in with a resolute determination to suceed. and sticks to it. In every thing there are dis couragement s and obstacles to be overcome. A pretty illustration ol this is found in the following anec dote: At one of the mills m the city of ltoston a b y was wanted, and a piece of paper was tacked on one of the posts : Hoy wanted, ('ail at tin1 ofliee tomorrow" morning." At the time named there was a host of boys at the gate. All were admitted, but the overseer was a little perplexed as to the best way of choosing one from so many, and said he, '-Now, boys, when I only want one of you. how can I choose from so many V ' After thinking a moment, he called them into the yard, drove a nail into a tree, and, taking a short stitk. told them that the boy who could hit the nail with a stick ;i little distance from die tree sh uild have the place. The boys each ti.ed time time-, and failed to hit the n.rl. They were told to come again the next morning. When the gate was opened, there was hut one boy, who, after being admitted, picked up the stick, and. throwing it at the nail, hit it every time. How is this f" said the over seer.

Na, na, Sir Walter." replied Sandv : "but I'll compromise wi y e. and let e half kill mo for hall the money ." We bear every day ol men killing themselves by overwork in the mad race after wealth, and we feel, with Sandy, that they would be wiser if they only half killed themselves for half the monev. KxchaDge. Cultivation of Onions. A correspondent asks how much seed it will take to sow an iore, the best time to sow, what two kinds of seed to use lor market crops, how to cultivate and the proper means of harvesting and preparing the crop for market. The two kinds usually sown by in .ii kut gardeners are Yellow Dan rers and large Wethersheld ll-d. The latter tor shipping South. The crop requires a rich, deep mellow Mill, heavily manured. It is bettei 'hat they be sown as early in the spri- g as the ground can be worked on tail plowing. Three to lour pounds oi iresh usual quantity sown drills eighteen niche halt an l neh deep. The cultivut.oii is seed is the per acre, in apart, and entirely by superficial, crop. When inches high, lpait.

When dry. the tops ate pulled, bulbs cleaned olV the rough skins, when they are ready for maiket. If the onions are to be stored for winter, they should be kept in a cool, airy dace, in thin layers, until la'e in the autumn: they are then carried to i coo!, dry cellar and stored on racks six or eight inches dep. They may also be saved in heaps, out of doors, by idling in a dry place just before hard frosts set in. coveiiiig caielully with hay and then with earth, just mi they will freeze slightly. Then they should not be not be touched until the frost draws out of them naturally, when they must be immediately sold. Farm. Field and Stockman. li Russians do not Kniiirrate. From Ceorge Kennan's account of the Russian Penal Code in the April Century we quote as follows: "I have been asked many times by Iriends in America why intelligent and liberty loving IJussians do not get ou' of such a country . Many answers might be given to this question, but perhaps the most comprehensive and cogent of them will be found in Sections 3 Jo ;i:?s ot the Kussian penal code, which are as follows: -Section .!'.). Whoever leaves the fat hei land and enters the service of a foreign Covernmeut without permission of his own Government, or becomes a subject of a foreign power, snch person, for violation of his allegiance and his oath shall be deprived of all civil rights and expelled from the limits of the em pire forever. If he returns, he shall be exiled to Siberia lor life. " 'Section U ( j . Who leaves the latheiland and does not return and does not return at the summons of the Government shall for this dis obedience be deprived of all civil rights, and expelled from the limits of the empire forever unless, with in a period to be fixed at the discre tion of a court, he shows that his disobedience was due to causes which were beyond his control, or which mitigate bis guilt. Until he shall make such proof, he shall be regarded as missing, and his pro perty shall be controlled by the bureau of guardians. " "Section oi'T. Any person who without permission of the Govern ment and without adequate reason, lives abroad beyond the period fixed by law for persons of his station shall also be- regarded as missing literally, 'absent without news' . and his property shall be taken m charge by the bureau ol guardianship. Section diS. Any person who persuades a subject, of the empire to emigrate to another country shall be punished with penal servitude in a convict company lor not less than eighteen months, or be banish ed to Siberia for life.' 'Under one of the above-quoted sec' ions !'('' Tnrgenief while liv ing in Paris in 1 si .'!, was summoned to St. Petersburg to answer before the I:reeting Senate lor something that he had written or said. One can see from his letters to a friend, F. V. Annenkoll', how humilating and exasperating obedience was to him. but he obeyed. "The Government does no recog ui.e the right of its subjects to go abroad or to live abroad without its permission: and it therefore, alius sian takes refuge from oppression in a freer county, he must lace the prospect of expatriation, outlawry, the loss of all the property left be hind him. and exile to Siberia if he ever returns. Few people are wil ling to separate themselves for life in this way from friends, relatives, home, country, and all that a man naturally holds dear. What alter native, then, is left to the oppressed when oppression becomes intoler able.' They must either submit or light: and if they are not willing to submit and are able, under the pro visions of this code, to oppose ty ranny by peaceful collective action, they will inevitably resort to vio lence and tight, singly or in small groups, as they are now fighting, until they go to Siberia in leg fetters or perish on the scallbld." The Society (.ill. Society is not the place in which to preach women's rights or tem perance, and .she who should under take :o set a dinner table by the ears, so to speak, with an expres sion of her deepest convictions, would be pretty certain to receive no second invitation. There are those who goso far as to say that the society girl should have no convic tions but the coin iction of her own acceptability. She may have in terests, but no hobble-; at the same time she must not be shallow. Still, the irnl who ignorautlv as- : pires to society puts clothes lirst I and culture last, has more or less 'contempt for everything bather j fallals. It is manner that carries i the day, and good-nature and kind- ness. even in society the art of 1 making others happy, of amusing without apparent effort, of being invariably agreeable. .Moods should ! not belong to a society girl if she i would be a success: she must al low herself to be bored frith a ' smile : she must submit to disap-j , pointments with a bon mot, lor so j ciety has its price like other wordly things, V Kriu.dy lu Kidney Aflecllon.

Express Agent, Macon, (ia. Southern Pine. The value of Southern pine can not possibly be overestimated, for where can you find a place where timber lor building pur poses is better adapted f From the hovel to the palace, there is no place but that it can be used to give strength, stability and orna ment. Then to these qualities we must necessarily add another, per manency. It lasts while most other timbers fail and have often to be renewed. Its strength is second only to the oak, and it is fast working its way into the place where oak used to be used excusive ly. Many of our finest vessels are now timbered and planked, inside and out, with yellow pine. The size and length of timbers which can be sawed from it make it, the most available timbers for buildings of ail kinds. In the construction of trusses of heavy roofs there is no timber so ni auapieu, auu ine icugiua e get w ithout splicing peculiarly adapt it to this special purpose. In timber for railroad cars there is nothing equal to it. Sills, inside and out. plates, studding, and, in fact, every part of a common freight car, except transoms and sheath ing, can be made from it. In studding for passenger cars I see no reason why it might not be used, for many times the ash from which they are made is not half as strong as Southern piDe selected especial ly for that work. Vertical grain Southern pine 1 consider is much stronger and firmer than most of t ! studding used in passenger coaches. For frames of houses 't has no equal for strength and durability, and every part of the house, from garret to cellar, can be economically made from this wood. Fven for finish there are selections from it that equal in beauty any kind of wood that grows. Shingles, but no person in city residences, no matter how small and insignificant, ought ever to use shingles for roof coverings. Kail roads are using it extensive v for ties on iron bridges and in 'the general construction of wooden bridges where iron is not used. I Consider it the best and most economical timber for all kinds of work where wood is used. There need not be an ounce of waste in a : cargo of it. The small pieces make ;the best kind ot door saddles I thresholds) either inside or out, and wainscoting A-inch thick is as ood generally as 4-inch stock oflatsuch confidence in a stranger, an v other kind of wood. Much more might be said in ; praise of this wood, that a large , part of the country builders know j but comparatively little about. Y. ! in the Wood-Worker. Eveninsrs at Home. j It is well for the woman of the household to remember that the pleasant evenings at home are strong antidotes to the praotice of looking lor enjoyment abroad, and seeking for pleasure in by and for bidden places: for relaxation and recreation will be indulged in somehow by most men, and happy are they who find in the home cir cle the diversion they need. A lively game, an interesting book read aloud, or, in musical families, a now song to be practised, will furnished pastime that will make an evening pass pleasantly. A little forethought during the day, a little pulling of wires that need not appear, will make the whole thing easy; and different ways and means may be provided for making the evening hours pass pleasantly, and a time to be looked forward to with pleasantly antici pations. We visited once a large family where it was the duty of each sis ter, in turn, to provide the even ing occupation, and there was a plcasat rivalry between them as to whose evening should be the most enjoyable. The brothers entered fully into the spirit of the simple home entertainments, and were as loth to be obliged to spend an evening away from home as their sisters and parents were sorry to have them absent. Every one spoke of this family as an uncom monly united one, for each and eve ry member showed such strong at tachment for the ;home to which each one contributed so much pleas ure. Punctuality. One of the first requisites ot a well-ordered home is punctuality. If there is no regard to time a "happy-go-lncky" administration there is always more or less friction. Trains run on time, schools begin on time, well regulated offices open and close on time, and Americans have the reputation of trying to get ahead of time. So, necessarily, the house that does not fall into line and run its affairs on time is forcing its inmates to lose what it never can catch, and yet never ceases trying to catch lost min utes. II there is not a breakfast hour, and the rule enforced that all the mem bers of the family make their ap pearance at the table on time and in good order, there will be a pro longed meal that will keep other necessary work back ; there will be hurried and tasteless breakfast eaten, and discomfort and annoy ance to all concerned. 2S'ow, this matter of punctuality, while largely iu the hands of the mistress, de pends, in a measure, on every mem ber of the family. There can be no restfulness, no order, no con tinued peace, in a home where this cornerstone ol all is absent. Cure for Biliousness. First, on getting up and going to bed drink plenty ot cold water. Fat for breakfast, until the bilions attack passes, a little stale Jbread, say one slice, and a piece half as large as jour hand of boiled lean beef or mutton. It the whether is warm, take instead a little cracked wheat or oatmeal porridge. For dinner take about the same. Go without your supper, lxercise freely in the open air, producing perspiration, once or twice a day. In a few days your biliousness is all gone. This result will come even though the bilious ness is one of the spring sort, and one with which you have,from year to year, been much afficted. ilerb drinks, bitter drink, lager beer, ale, whiskey, Dd a doaen spring medicines are simply bar barons. Dio Lewis.

The sun shone fair in the clear, crisp air Dakota, at her beet, In winter array is CDld, they say, lit tried by an Eastern test But Chambers wan a Western man, on- the frontier ueed to roam. And his boys went along, with a laugh and song, to help drive the cattle home. The old man's eye caught the (fleam on high of a sullen, jellow cloud. And lo, the light fard out from the bky, and far on the praire a loud Fierce roar was heard, and with never a wo:d, save ' florae, while the storm allowed " He eped one boy back, while he kept the track with the other lad and the cows.

At Rome and Geneva one is most i The Best Salvk in the worla fcr tempted to make purchases, and at both places yon can do well at the best stores. I was amazed at their readiness to accommodate Atneri cans. At Geneva a large dealer in watches and jewels said, in reply to my remark that I had little money to spend : "The money, sir, is of no oonse quence. Yon can have anything you want, and pay for it in New York." Oil mv expressing surprise , uc haiu. 'i)u must allow us to believe that we understand our business." In Home I was repeatedly told to take anything that I wished to my hotel, and pay when convenient; and once, alter asking the lady proprietor of a rich mosaic estab lishment to reserve for me a choice piece of Byzantine mosaic until 1 had filled my pursCj she said : ''Take it with you," and, on my expressing surprise at her confi dence in a total stranger, she said: (iOh, sir, have no scrnples. We never lose anything by the Ameri cans and -nglish." Violent Friendship. To one of his dan ghters at school Bishop Mcllwaine gave the follow ing counsel : "Don't cultivate that violent friendship which leads to a sort of confidential communication which cannot be made known to your parents. Be very particular whom you allow to be familiar with yon, as your near companions and friends. Know well' the person, before forming a close intimacy; and the moment you see anything wrong in a companion think what effect it should have on your friend ship. Learn to say 'No,' decisive ly, to any request or proposal which your judgment tells you is not right. It is a great thing in a child to say 'No' when it is right to do so. Make it a rule to hear nothing from any girl which you may not be permitted, and would not be willing to tell your dear mother. Be careful to let nothing interfere with your regular private prayers and reading of the Scriptures ; and labor to give your whole heart and life to God." tan I Afford to Buy a New Year's Gift! A millionaire has no difficulty in pleasing his children at holidajj times, for their every want can be supplied. But in how many homes the father is in doubt what to give to the little ones. The toys are spread out in such a tempting ar ray that he is bewildered. Tom would like a rocking horse, and Mary a French doll, while little Hetty is anxious for a china tea-set but father counts the cost, and the money in his pocket is not suffi cient to gratify "their desires. So he has to bny less expensive toys, although his heart aches, as he thinks that his children have as much right to enjoyment as anoth er's. The humble toys and presents are taken home, and are received with shouts of joy and clamours oi delight. It is not the value of the gift which has pleased the little ones! No, but the fact that the father has remembered them. This is the source of the joy. Parents,it is blessed to give; it is worth a little sacrifice even to see the little eyes sparkle and the face beam into a smile as the gift is produced. Never let a birthday or Christmas or New Year go by without making glad the hearts of the children. Courtesy. Accurate fitting of the parts of a machine, says a living divine, is not all that is needed. Oil is re quired. Our life-functions bring us together, our movements and do ings working together. Something is neeeed to make all work smooth ly together. Good manners, cour tesy, pleasant behavior, is the oil which is needed. Some say : What have we to do with good manners between master and workman ? Every creaking in the social ma chine means loss of power. All heating and friction must be avoided. "Fair words butter no parsnips," is an old adage. But they do much in a house of busi ness. Where the clerks are atten tive and obliging, customers will be more likely to come. So in all things. The faculty of mastership is largely behavior. Xot Enough. A little boy and his sister came home from the closing exercises at one of the public schools the other day. The certificates for regular attendance and good conduct had been distributed and the girl was i the proud recipient of one of them, 1 hn r. hr brother ' had faile.d to nnal- but her brother had failed to qual ty- "Didn't you get a certificate, Tommy?" their mother asked. "Xo'm," was the reply, "but I would have got one if there had been enough to go round." "What a Woman Never Admits. Tbat she is in love. That she evef flirted. That she laces tight. That she is tired at a ball. That her shoes are too small. That she cannot keep a secret. That it takes her long to dress. That she has kept you waiting. That she uses anything but pow der. That she says what she doesn't mean. That she blushed when vou men tioned a particular gentleman's name. Keturnkd. A business man of Somerset, Ky., wrote to a man m the country, and on the envelope that held the letter was the usual "Ketnrn in ten days to , Somerset, Kyv' A couple of weeks afterward the letter came back ac companied by a note in which the writer said "that according to ic quest he returned the letter, though for the lile of him he didn't see why he was so alllired particular about having it sent back." ! A gentleman was complaining on 'Change that he had invested a rather large snm of money and lost it all. A sympathetic friend asked him whether lie had been a bull or a bear. To which he replied, "Neither : I was a jackass."' ADVICE TO MOTllIillS. Mks. Winblow's Soothing Sykit should always be used for children teething.
