It is said that Harrison's eye is on the tobacco tax, as a means of popularizing his administration in the tobacco producing States. They tell us that the receipts from tobacco aggregate a little over ?3i,IKK),tXX) a year. Congressman Browne, of Indiana, regards a revis ion of the revenue system a the most important question awaiting the action of Congress, and favors a repeal of the tax on tobacco, anil on alcohol used in the arts, and a reduction of the tax on sugar.

I' is verv sad to be alone. There is scarcely any thing more depres.i ing th in aVeiisp ot lontliness in a crowd, ol solitude in the heart ol a grt'At city. Cor a tune Tanner w as the luck les victim of loneliness. In all the Cn ion he as absolutely coin pan ion less. His isolation gave name to his characteristic methods, and Tannerism entered the nomen clature of American politics. But ;s there is no duck wifVo.C its mate, .-o ; here is no character wun on t its duplicate. i; now seems tint Tauneiisin was pract iced before Tanner came to play upon the stage in the na tional drama. 'Tiernting certifi cates'' was the g'rm aud essence of Tannerism, which, originating be fore the distinguished Corporal, gained a local habitation and a name through hini. Tanner is very happy just now. He is out of the woods and his sense of loneliness is gone. If he is in a city he sees boon companions all around hun. One there is who is worthy to be taken to his bosom, so far as Tannerism can make bosom friends. Tanner has replied to his accusers, and in his reply he cites the case of Gen. Powel! of Illinois, who recently withdrew his application for the Commissioner shift, and saye: "Justice to the gentlemen in the bureau departments that I should state that very early in my ex perience as Commissioner my at tention was called to the Powell case as a precedent. I have not the slightest desire to embarrass the honorable Secretary, bnt he has the right in judging ollicials of the Pension Bnreau to bear in mind that only four days before I took office they saw his personal friend, who had been his personal candi date for the Commissionership, walk into the office, I am informed, with a note from the Secretary to the Commissioner, asking him to do all he could for his friend, Colonel Powell. Ihe Colonel had a gunshot wound in the shoulder, for which he was drawing a quarter pension. Had he been a private it would have been a month. As he was a colonel it was .7.oO. I am informed that a medical exami nation by the Office Board was suggested to him. He declined to submit to it. He had not been examined since Feb. o, 1S75, bnt his case was rerated then and there, and his tension increased to full ' rate, dating back to the day of his discharge, and Commissioner Black and Seereta.y Noble signed the certificate which gave Colonel Powell a little over G,300.'' Accepting Mr. Tanner's state ment as correct, and the case is a ni neb more tlagrant one than that of Senator Mauderson or any other with which Tanner is connected. Tanner and Noble are in the same boat, and Harrison is Cap tain. If the administration had not set the example of asing the offices of government for theae-j complishment of personal ends, and the creation of individual fortunes, no subordinate would have dared to make the venture; but when Harrison gave offices to his family even to the third aud fourth degree of consanguinity, his subalterns felt that they could not pay him a higher compliment than to follow his example, CONVENTION OK J)t MOCKATIC CUTIS OK NEW YORK. No more important assemblage has occurred in many a day than the convention of Democratic clubs at the Hoffman House, in the city of New York, on last Tuesday. AmoD the more important features were the address of Gov. Hill, the letter of Mr. Cleveland and the platform adopted. We cannot give the whole proceedings, but will present extracts from the speech of Gov. Hill, the letter of Mr. Cleve land and the platform. Gov. Hill in his speech said: "A year ago the party pledged itself in favor of tariff reform. We reiterate this pledge this year and propose to fis;ht it out to the bitter end. We believe that a sufficient amount of revenue should be raised to provide for a proper administra tion and no more. The surplus should also be reduced. "The louger the present adminis tration continues in power it will be shown how just and right was the administration of President Cleveland. Loud cheers Presi dent Cleveland fulfilled the expec tations of his party. He conducted the Government with an eye to the public good." Mr. Cleveland closed his ad mirable letter as follows : "I look to the ascendancy of the principles upon which true De mocracy rests, which will be greatly aided by the activity of leagues, such as yours, to secure us from wasting extravagance, from dema gogic pretense, from sectional bitterness, and from the widespread corruption of our suffrage. Could labor and effort have greater or higherincentives than the accom plishment of these results ?" And the platform reaffirms al legiance to the principles of the "league and to thedemocratieparty. It declares its devotion to the prin ciples ot tariff reform contained in the St. Louis platform of 1SSS, and in the Mills bill, and expresses the belief that it is the duty of the Democratic party to continue the contest for the establishment of those principles until they are em bodied in law. It also favors bal lot reform aud approves the plan for that purpose suggested by Gov. Hill in his veto of the Saxton bill, and it congratulates Grover Cleveland for the 'wisdom and bravery with which he fought for the tariff i.fform end racy in 1 7 an i 1 while, by the gre if est fund known it, ,tn s eh Hue dernoi -and that corruption Clou in our NORTH CAROLINA NEWS.

The reason why there is ?o much poor preaching is hecauee there i'J bo much poor hearmg. God never called me to preach like other men. nor other men to preach as I do, though some have tried it and got badly left. God Almighty made me just as I am, and I have never interferred with the job one particle. I'll promise you one thinpi to tell the truth fo it will Ftick to you like a cnrkleburr to an old biieep's wocl. I'll be there when you Bhear him. I don't mean by an honest man one who pays his debts. That's the meanest sort of honesty. Any man of sense or decency will do that if he can. Some church people, however, are afraid to walk along 60me streets for fear cf meetine a man they owe and won't pay. They do business as "agents'' and board with their wives in order to successfully roD their creditors. I'd go to the chain-gang and stay there before I'd ever write my name, I'Siim P. Jones, agent," for my wife. You. a great big officer in the church, and won't pay your debts: you old hound. John the Iiaptirt wis the bravest; ty e of Christian I know of.

The church member who rents his house for a saloon is like the Confede rate who fought on our ti le, but ran a powder mill for the Yankees, but sup- i plied the powder with which they shot : down thousands of rebels. The preach-1 er that will house such a member ain't any better than he is. I wouldn't give ten cents to hear i Ingersoll on "the Mistakes of Moses, " I but I'd give ten dollars to hear Moses j on the mistakes of Ingerscll. j I wouldn't "ive a cent for the religion of a man who doesn't know whether! he's got it who just believes he's got it, but is not certain. I once heard a man preach about "conscious sonship"' and then about "unconscious son- ship." If my boy was to go around and say he doesn't know whether I am his daddy or not I'd wear him out. What, then, does God think of his adopted children who doesn't know whether he's God's child or not . Why, its a elam on the whole family. A man who is prospering in business j doesn't hide the fact. You say he looks like a well to do man. A man who is ; prospering in religion can no more hide j it than he can put out the sun. He phows it in his family, in his busness I and in his amusements. Brethren, I don't know how many of you have kept the faith sine I left you. I know some have been benefited and remained true to ycurpromi.-j to Christ, but I didn't guarantee any of you then, j I don't guarantee n man until he's dead and in heaven ar.d the pearly gates are locked hard aru the fence too high for hira to jump out. Tiun I'll guarantee him . " "Now the lull doc is a cleaver in the genuine sen?-- of the word. You can't kick him cT, you can't cuss him off, j and you cau't beat him cfT. You can only cliche him to death. He's a cleaver. He's there to stay. Every member of the church ought to have a grip on God so you can't kick him loose and only when clammy death seals his eyes will he loose his hold. 1 "A man came to me and said , "Jones, ' I C6ver saw such meetings in my life.

John Lawrence Sullivan, the world's champion in the fistic arena and lately an aspirant for Congressional honors, has been on a ter rible drunk for three days, painting the Hub a livid red. For periods of three or four hours he goes out in the street and literally storms the town, proving a terror to all who oppose him. Por a while he took possession of the Metropolitan hotel and the police had a hard time subduing him. He is said to be dead broke financially, depending on his friends for the whiskey he drinks. cation in regard to the swamD lands He has been appointed agent for the sale of the lands, at a commission of i ten per cent, on sales.

Goldsboro Argus: The colored young men of Goldsboro have shown a com mendable desire for improving their spiritual, social and mental condition by organizing a Young Men's Christian Association. This was done in May ' last, and the meetings have been kept up regularly since then. There are now about 100 members. Wilmington Star: The British stea mer Osmanli was cleared Wednesday by Messrs. Alex. Sprunt & Sou, with j sixty-five hundred bales of cotton, the value of which is three hundred and eighteen thousand and six hundred dollars, the weight being 3,186,092 poundB. This is the largest cargo of cotton ever shipped from this port. Willmington Review: We spoke some weeks ago of the fine tobacco crop raised by Mr. D. W. Rencher, near Willard. On Saturday last Mr. Rencher sold the proceeds of a half acre of this crop for 898.05, which is at the rate of 196.10 per acre. Let some of the best farmers in Pender county, who have good tobacco lands lying idle, put on their thinking caps and reason this matter out to its logical conclusion. Sanford Express: The Egypt (N. C.) coal shaft has been emptied of its water. The shaft is 425 feet. Some of the coal was exhibited this week at the State Fair.

Up to date there has been handled by the ex press employees ia this city since Octo ber 1st over 3,000 packages, o? more than an average of 15u per day. This comes within about 130 of the whole amount handled last October. There was more than three times as much handled in September, 1889, as in Sep tember, 1888. Good for Goldsboro. Charlotte News: The ladies of Char lotte are busily engaged today in ar ranging for the reception of the dele gates and visitors to the Methodist State Missionary Convention, which will meet in' the Tryon street Methodist church next Friday, (Oct. 25), as noted in the News two weeks ago. There will be between 75 and 100 delegates. The Methodist churoh is being prepared for the occasion, and perhaps the most striking feature of I the decoratioa will be a ship to represent the "Missionary Ship." It will be seven feet long, and will be arranged in front of the pulpit. This is strictly a ladies convention, as we understand there are only two men eonneoted with it. Snow Hill Baptist: Since our last issue Messrs. John Murphey, Benjtmin Taylor, Henry Ham, Matthew Carr and Mrs. Abner Rouse, all of this county, have pat eed over the river to the 'great beyond. Mr. Murphey had been a citizen of this town for many years and did much towards building up its busi ness interest. He enjoyed the confi dence and esteem of all his fellow citi zens. Messrs. Carr, Taylor and Ham were among the oldest people of this county, and were among the good and quiet men of our county. Mrs. Rouse was a middle age lady, and was the consort of Mr. Abner Rouse. She had been confined for a long time with a lingering disease. Snow Hill Baptist: Staggers among the horses here has about subsided, but not until it had destroyed several thousand dollars worth of horse flesh for the citizens of this county. Ex- Shoriff Luby Harper showed us a plum the other day that weighed two and a half ounces. It is known among nur serymen as the Kelsey Japan, and is a luscious fruit.
