The late centennial celebration gave evidence of wonderful progress, but we cannot be ooateat with present attainments. However high may be our national elevation, there is a lamentable want of ma terial and individual development in all sections of oar common country. Take the Sta.eof North Caro lina. Heaven has wonderfully blessed oar State. She has a cli mate soft and balmy as that of Italy, and a soil aa rich as any in the valley of the Nile. Her moun tains are storehouses of mineral wealth, and her eastern shore is the native home of delicious fruits aad lascioas grapes. Whatever has been accomplished :n the past is nothing m com pjruoti with fat ure developments. Sappose the agricultural re sources of North Carolm a were fully developed, whit a spectacle it would present! Our barns would overflow, and our surplus become tributary to distant communities. Theu consider the result of our mineral development. The treas ures that arc hid in our mountain fastnesses are enough to pay all the expenses of government and bnng comfort and luxury to every home. What shall we say of individual development T We have men of wisdom, men of learning men re nowned ln all the walks of life yet not one of them has experienced the full development of his powers. Then consider the vast multitude of unwise and unlettered men, and the mighty hosts in absolute igno ranee. It is useless ;o dream of cuatunal development as loog as there is an absence of individual development. There must le mmI to work on matter and the development of one is the necessary precursor of the development of the other. If there is one thing moie de minded in North I arolma than any other it is education. W e do not mean alone the trainiu of the schools but that training of all the powers as will make them sub serve the highest interests of so ciety and accomplish the greatest . good to country, home and friends. I Thera is verv much of true edn- , cation that every one nimt acquire; of himself There are asds, assis- j taots, all along, but every man the late New York centennial cele bration, and it is was not eipected that she would be prominent in the imposmg ceremonials of the occa sion. North Carolina is proverbially modest. Modesty has always been char ncteristic of her people. She hss never pressed herself to the front except when liberty was to be defended, and on such occasions she has been prodigal in her ex penditures oi blood and treasure. However retiring North Caro lina may be, there is no excuse for the World and Herald in announc ing that "North Carolina is repre sented by Governor Scales and Adjutant General Jones.-' This is no reflection upon Governor Fowle and Adjutant General Glenn, but it shows the unpardonable ignorance of metropolitan journals that boast of their enterprise. Un til the World and the Herald be come better informed it is not to be expected that they will allude in appropriate terms to North Caro lina and her people. Without having heard one word from Gov. Fowle or any member of the North Carolina delegation, we have no hesitancy in assuring our readers, that Governor Fowle and his associate delegates to the New York centennial reflected credit upon their State. THE INDIAN 15 POLITICS. Thurston county, Nebraska, is haviug an experience somewhat like that which the South is under going, the principal difference be ing that Nebraska has the Indian to tackle, while the South has the negro to deal with. Thurston is a new county, and recently conventions have been held there by the Eepablican and Democratic parties for the nomina tion of county officers. In the lie pablican convention the Indians bad a large majority and nominated an Indian for sheriff. In the Demo cratic convention the white men had the majority and nominated a white man for sheriff, ln the lie publican convention the war hoop was raised and the scalping knife glittered ; in the Democratic con vention everything was conducted in decency and order. Thus the race issue is inaugurated in Ne braska. We have called attention to this condition of affairs to emphasize the fact that wherever the Demo cratic party exists, it rallies to its colors the virtue and intelligence of the country. The reason of this u evident. It is the party of law and order every where and under all circumstances. It admits of no violation of the Constitution by the national government no lniringement ol the rights and liberties of the peo ' ' pie by the State government. We do not claim that all the! HK) in killed and mortally wounded. Think of it that in both armies there were nearly L'.7(K) regiments, and orjly 2't ever had h'Omea killed and mortally wounded in one bat tle. North Carolina has the very re markable, the very distinguished honor of having tkn 10 out of the 12."). That tells the story. That is honor enough. And yet the silence oi Generals: the misrepresentations ol officers : the perversions of wi iters have hid the (acts and lauded men who were undeserving, while igi.oring the real heroes. HO. .

"The Uritish armies having failed of t-ucress among the Northern por tion ol the colonies, owing to the skill aud vigilance of Washington, the attention of their commander waa directed to the Southern de partment. There, it was believed that, owing to the hold which the British already had uoon the coun try, its widely scattered rural popu lation and the noted loyalty of considerable portion of it, the pros nect of final success was much better than in any other quarter With a picked and veteran force therefore, Lord Cornwallw began his celebrated march from Charles ton through South Carolina and North Carolina into Virginia He calculated upon embodying the loyal element wherever he went and encouraging it to join him and swell his forces. This was reasonable after the shameful disaster at Cam dsn, and to a great extent this ex pectation was justified by large numbers of loyalists joining him in South Carolina, whilst quite a num ber either did, or attempted the same in North Carolina. Hut his presence and proclamations were two edged weapoun. they not only- called out the Tory .element, but roused and brought to arms every patriotic w uig in the regions through which he matched. These alone proved more than sufficient to deal with their countrymen who took sides with the British. The first great serious check which his hitherto triumphant ad vaoce had received was at King's Mountain in October, 17S0, preced ing his advance into North Caro lina. Cornwallis had sent Major Ferguson with u battalion of rega lar troops to call out and embody all the Tory element of the western part of the two Carolmas. This he did with considerable success, and incorporated with his own forces a Urge number of volunteers. But the effort to do so had alarmed the Whigs of the mountains oi North Carolina and Virginia. These gallant frontiersmen sprang up by magic, and crossing the great Iron and Y'ellow Mountains Irom the vallies of the Holston and Nalichu cky, assembled in the valley of the Catawba and made their hnal arrangements to dispose of Fergu son and his Tories. Advancing by forced marches, receiving recruits at every step their array became so formidable that Ferguson took the alarm and retreated to King's Mountain, vainly imagining that the raw militia from the wilderness would not dare to attack him there. But little did he know of the spirit of these men. Like a mountain avalanche they swept onward after their prey, and like an eagle when found they seized it iu defiance of all military rules, in its own chosen position of strength. Authors, orators and military critics have dwelt alike exhaustively upon this wonderous feat of arms, its timely imjortance to the patriotic cause and its unexampled heroism. There is little concerning it which remains to be said. To me, it appears impossible for language to over estimate its inl and an exhibition -f l.reoi warlike geuius. 1 kno'.v that it is not perhaps in good taste for .;eiis ot a Democratic country to tma.-t of the blood which is in their veins, but I am vjre I will be par doned Inr indulging in a strain of filial pi :de by glorying in the fact tha; m v grandfather was one of those who amidst smoke and lire ascended those heights on that day.

A cable running from a large hoist engine through the tunnel to the cars will pull them up to the surface, where the dirt will be loaded into other cars to be carried away. As the earth in the tunnel is re moved a gang of men will follow with the lining of the tunnel, which is cast iron. The tunnel will thus be completed as the work pro gresses. A monster blower engine is suitably situated to force air into the tunnel throagh a 24 inch pipe. A large electric light engine will furnish 300 lights, aud it is pro posed to make the interior of the tunnel as light as day. A force of 125 men will be employed on each side of the river, and the work will be pushed night and day. It is expected that the workmen from each side will come together about 700 feet from the Canadian side. The approach to the river is nearly a mile longer on the Can adian side than on the American, as the up grade is all on the land side in Canada. The approaches will not be tunneled until the tunnel under the river is completed. Tbe tunael, as finished, will consist of 2,500 feet on the American Bide, 2,200 under the river, and 4,000 feet on the Canadian eide. There are now at work 125 men on tbe Canadian side and GO on the Ameri can side. Another large addition was made to the working force Jan nary 2, when active operations were begun, and they will be vigor ously pushed henceforth, it is as serted. It is estimated that the work will cost $2,500,000, although well informed men predict that it will cost nearer 85,000,000. President Sir Henry Tyler and Manager Hick son have been heard to remark that it will be completed if it costs 10,000,000. The Law of Liberty. The relation between liberty and law is not understood by all. Some think there is an antagonism between them; that law has a ten dency to restrain liberty; that the less men are goverened the more liberty they have. Let us look at the matter. What liberty can a man rightfully claim? He can claim the right to-act in accordance with his nature. The bird cannot claim a right to inhabit tbe sea, nor the fish to inhabit the forest. The bird was made to live in the air, the fish in the water Man was made to do right. It is contrary to his true nature, con trary to the end for which he was created, to do wrong. His liberty is not restrained when he is pre vented from doing wrong. He has no right to do wrong, and hence cannot demand liberty to do wrong. The object of law is to secure to every man the enjoyment of his rights to secure him against wrong, fair james Aiacimosn ae fines liberty to be ''security against wrong Now suppose a system of laws to be enacted which shall permit everything that is just and right, and forbid everything that is nn just and wrong and suppose such a system of laws to be iaithtully executed. "What would be the result f Every one would be free to do what was just, and would be cross. Has thy trust in the Master teen shaken in doubt and in darkness thy faith has been lost. And thou eriest.
