Pile it on and make the deficit in tue treasury as small as possible. The press, with hardly an ex ception, praises the life and laments the death of John Boyle O'Reiley, the poet, editor and philanthropist, who was such a friend to Ireland. Two years ago Mr. O'Reiley visited and explored the Dismal Swamp, and as a correspondent for the Boston Herald, gave a most inter eatine and beaatiinllv written ac count of his trip. THE decision that the lertilizer tax is unconstitutional is uufortun ate for North Carolina, however just it ma? be. This tax was the source of a revenue of about $40, 000 a year, which has been the tapport of the State Department ol Agriculture aud the Agricultnral and Mechanical college. The loss of this support will cripple to some extent the progress of these institu tions. There is a demand for good home made jeilies and jams. This suggests a profitable occupation for some women who are earning money at home in other and more laborious ways.

Men give me some credit, says Alexander Hamilton, for genius All the genius I have lies in this When I have a subject in hand, study it profoundly. Day and night it is before me.

Then the effort which I make the people are pleased to call the fruit of genius It is the fruit of labor and thought "It is announced, says the Kal eigh News and Observer, "that the old Dismal Swamp Canal is to be deepened and improved and re opened. The Norfolk and North Carolina Canal Company has made a deed to the Holland Trust Com pany for $1,000,000 which sum- will be used for that purpose. The move will be a most important one lor the commerce of Eastern Carolina, and will bring Elizabeth City into prominence as a commercial point." Look out. A dispatch says: "The secret Bervice is advised of the appearance In the South of a very poor counterfeit $20 silver certifi cate. It is of the act of February 28, 1878, series 1880, check letter O.

The entire impression is very indistinct, and has not the appearance of having undergone what is known as the washing pro cess, It is a photographic pro duction." AN idea of the effect of the duty on tin may be gained from the fol lowing figures : Bright tin, if duty free, would cost $4.80; under the present duty it costs $6; under the McKinley bill it would cost $7.30. Roofing tin, if duty free, would cost $8.25 a box; under the present duty it costs $10.50; under the McKinley bill it will cost $13.50 Mechanics and farmers, such is the bill which, they tell us at Washing ton, has been framed in your in terests. The City of Paris can no longer claim the title of queen of the ocean racers. The White Star steamer Teutonio won the right to it when she arrived off Sandy Hook light Wednesday. She had made the trip from Queenstown in 5 days, 19 hours and 5 minutes, thus beating the fastest time on record 5 days, 19 hours and 18 minutes made by the fleet Inman liner, by just 13 minutes. It was a famous voyage from beginning to end, for besides breaking the record for the west bound trip, she also beat time ever made for a single day's distance, making a record of 512 miles for the twenty-four hours ending at noon last Sunday. The big newspaper deal which is being organized in behalf of Grover Cleveland, whose friends are planning lor his renommation for the Presidency, is iurther ad vanced than most people believe. The syndicate has already secured one paper in the Chicago Globe, and has nearly completed arrange ments to take possessiou of another plant in New York. The Globe was ostensibly bought by Mike McDonald, Jno. A. King and other politicians. After it has been an nounced that the Globe of Chicago is oat primarily lor Cleveland, the New York publication will be placed on the market; then the one in Boston and the others in Washington, Philadelphia, Cincin nati, and St. Louis as fast as they can be gotten, out. It was positive ly asserted that ex-President Cleve land, in whose interest the syndi cate is moving, is fully cognizant of everything it has done. It is hoped by Cleveland's friends that the influence of the papers will be each as to force Democrats to send ont delegations that will vote for his renomination for the Presidency by acclamation.

The following telegram was sent to the alliances now in ses sion in Tennessee, West Virginia and Texas: ".North Carolina sends greetings standing by the National and her state de mands."

We are not holding a Quaker meeting, though at the beginning of an Important campaign, and all of us being in the same boat with no protection. It may be in order to say a few words of exhortation, to tell our experience and to strengthen and encourage each other, A young friend of mine preached his introductory sermon ones, and on coming out asked his old uncle, "How do yon think I made oat T" "Well, Book, I may have hearn worse, but I don't recollect it." Buck is a preacher, still I hope if you have hearn no worse your read ers will excuse this article, on the ground that the motive is good. The writer is tired, exceedingly tired of Republican rule, because it means rain, because no sane man can expect anything else, and if so, he stultifies him. We take it that every intelligent man endeavors to exercise his reason to comprehend the whole situation and to vote accordingly. In doing so, let us see about the Republicans. The party is a popular minority party by at least 100,000. It is in no sense a representative party of the people, the bone and sinew, the yoemanry of the land. Whyl 25 per cent, negroes, many of whom believe it the same as the Publican mentioned in the Bible, and that Christ came to save them and the sinners, and on the new dispensa tion he only added, that it is, to their name nd Mr. Harrison knows it, 25 per cent, protected classes 25 do politicians, and the balance South haters, pension grabbers, contractors appointees and lick spittles. These are facts, and the argument on the other side is, "The South brought on the war ; Jeffer son Davis was a coward and was captured in his wife's petticoat, and say what you may the Repub licans are going to rule this conn try.'' Look at thin ass in the lion's skin, this cesspool of iniqnitv, what do you find T The most de plorable ignorance, the strongest prejudice, the shrewdest stratagem, an element of treason, a thirst for spoils, enmity against the constitu tion and the South, faith in boodle and blocks of five, and a few honest deluded patriots, but they are in bad company. Every read ing man knows these statements to be solid facts ; he knows the party has always been a sectional party ; odious to a large portion of our territory The men who struck the first blow for liberty, who inaugurated this government of the people, for the people and by the people, in the persons of their descendants and representatives ask to be re stored to the legitimate postion in this government ; positions which a popular majority entitles them to and from which they have been removed by strategem and unfor tanate events. Will you go to work ? Will every good citizen sustain and vote for our chosen candidates for State and National legislations, Every man acting as if success de pendended upon his individual vote. You need ask nothing from this Moloch, this hetrogenous mass comDosine the war party. Their interests are not your interests, their motives and feelings have no sympathy with yours. No good for you can come out of this Nazareth As well might you expect a shower of manna from the clouds, lbey are alarmed at the shadows of their iniquity and will soon be on the retreat, let us make the route com plete. Send a full delegation to Congress, elect the legislature and continue Senator in his place. A generation produces a few such gifts asjDur noble chief. We have learned his worth and we appre ciate It. In war, in peace, in citi zenship, he has been and is a safe counselor, a philanthropist and a son worthy of his mother, the grand old State. Paregoric. Bank Failure. ASHEVILLE, N. C Aug. 14. D. W. Shuler, cashier of the Bank of Hickory, died suddenly this morn ing of heart disease. The failure of his bank yesterday is supposed to have hastened his death. He was a native of Charlotte, Michi gan, but had been a resident of Hickory for a number of years. There is something in meanness which excites a species of resent ment that never subsides: and something iu cruelty which stirs up the heart to the highest pitch of human hatred fulling Fodder. As the season fur pulling fodder is at hand we reproduce the following article written for the Atlanta Constitution by V. L. Jones, a practical and progressive farmer from (ieor- gia. it may ne wen to consider it: The tendency is to raise hay and forage corn, and not to use fodder using the term us understood m the cotton States for supplying long forage as was the case in atttc hdlum times. We think t'n' above tendency is in the right direc tion, because to secure enough fodder, one must plant a largo crop of corn, and this i.., not good policy unless one owns large bodies of valley land or rich upland suited fo the crop. As a rule, corn is the dearest stock food that is raised. Still, as there is some coin planted on every farm, the question comes up": Should the fodder be pulled:-1 Some contend that it does not pay; first, it is hot and tedious work that does not repay the cost: second, it decreases the yield of grain. Whether the first is a valid objection or not depends upon circumstances. If one has to "ire labor at high prices, and if the corn is small and the blades short and light, the labor jmay cost more than the fodder lis worth. But if one has hands j hired by the year, and has no special pressing work at the time, the objection will not hold. Ihe validity of the second ob jection also depends on circum stances. On rich vallev lands the grain matures fullv before the leaves drv up sufficiently to ennil thfin tor t'oilrtor Thi w also true on rich uplands tilled ,l with humus, aud on such lands' the fodder may be pulled with- out any appreciable damage to the grain. On thin uplands, on the contrary, the blades will dry up before the grain is matured, and it is probablv not good policy to pan loader on sucn lands. Forage from drilled corn is perhaps not quite equal to ordi nary fodder, but it may be raised so cheaply and the yield is so great that it should be the chief reiiance for forage, next to sheaf oals, hay, etc. On farms where oats and peas are given as much space as they deserve there is little need for corn or its fodder. Interesting' Fhruri'S Showing the Growth of the Cliun hes iu the U. S. The Independent has gathered some valuable ami interesting statistics show ing the strength of the various Christian churches in the United Stages and their growth during the past jear. In some cases the figures are estimates, but onr contemporary believes that on the whole the results "very closely approximate the truth." From these it appears that there are in the United States lol.L'Gl churohes of all denominations, 103,300 ministers and nearly 22, 000,000 members, During the year there has been an increase of 8,500 churches, nearly 4,900 ministers and 1,090,000 members. The most numerous denomina tion is the Koruan Catholic, with its 7,500 churches, 8,300 priest-", etc., and 8 277,000 population, oi whom 4,07,000 are estimated to be communicants. Then come the Methodists, with, in round numbers, 4,980,000 com municants ; Baptists, 4,292,000; Presbyterians, 1,229,000; Luthe rans.l, 080,000 ; Congregationalists, 491,000, and Episcopalians, 480,000. The increase iu the Catholic population daring the year, 421,700. The estimated gain in Catholic communicants was over 238,000. The growth of Protestant mem bership was 608,000. The Metho dists gained more than 250,000, the Baptists more than 213,000, the Lutherans 98,000, the Congrega tionalists more than 16,000, the Episcopalians about 9,500, the Presbyteriaus nearly 49,000. The accession of new members was even larger than these figures since in every denomination there were deaths of members whose places were filled by new acquisi tions. The number of deaths in the Methodist Episcopal body, for example, was reported at 23,300. This is a highly satisfactory and encouraging Bhowing to all who have the welfare of the church at heart. A gain oi nearly eleven hundred thousand in membership in one year, with a corresponding increase in the number of churches and ministers, indicates that Chris tianity is marching on with no un certain stride. As our contempo porary well says, '"It is itself a most overwhelming refutation of the assertions we hear now and then from various quarters that Christianity is losing its hold upon our people and' that our churches are declining.'' N. Y. Herald. Exercise in Heart Disease. The fact is well known that Oertel, the distinguished German writer, has warmly advocated for certain forms ot functional heart trouble not rest, but active exercise, Mich as mouutain climbing. In pursing this practice, however, the utmost care is found necessary, and the distance to bo covered is of course regulated lor each patient; and as its object is to strengthen the heart muscle and promote the cir culation, and as only healthy arteries can i8tand the strain, such treatment is of course contra-indi cated in atheroma. Formerly the detection by puysi cal diagnosis of a heatt murmur was regarded as a grave fact, an adverse conclusion being at once arrived at without sufficiently considering the other signs and symptoms. Such cases, it is found, often do well with exercise and outdoor life. Again, iu fatty de generation, the heart in a young person can stand a moderate amouut of exercise and undoubtly be strengthened, but it is in fatty infiltration or fatty overgrowth that the judicious use of exercise does great good the general diet in such case to be regulated, and the general obesity which usually exists to be removed, by a depleting diet. Some German physicians in their city practice recommend stair climbing when mountain climbing is not feasible. New York Tri bune.

Great excitement was occa sioned several months ago by the brutal murder of Treasurer Caddall, of Pulaski county, and three persons Smith, Bond and Gowans, were arrested and tried for the crime last week, tho jury returning a verdict of not guilty. The excitement by no means abated when a sensa tional telegram to the New York Herald mentioned a prominent merchant of New bern, Ya, w ho was an important witness in tho late trials, as the probable murderer. To-day a new sensation and one of terrible proportions is gaining credence to the effect that a double murder was perpetrated. Henry A. Carper, jailer of Pulaski, whose testimony was mainly relied upon by the prosecution in the murder trial, died sud denly on the ISth day of July, it was said from apoplexy. Now the indications are that he died from poison administered in some mysterious way to pre vent his testimony from being thoroughly investigated, and the authorities will leavu noth ing undone to sift the case to the bottom. There is necessa rily considerable excitement over these new developments. PEKSU.VAL Sealing Taylor, the largest hugar planter in Louisiana, never usee sqgar in his coffee.

KENTUCKY JUSIK E. Under the Puotection ok Troops a Court Does Won derful Work. Louisville, Ky., Aug., 15. A special letter to the Courier Journal from Captain E. II. Gaither, in charge of the troops in Hazard, Perry county, isays : There have been no disturbances whatever since court began, nor is there any ! likelihood of any. Every outlaw left the place when the troops came and are not likely to return until the soldiers leave. Before tho sol diers came therfrrere four saloons run opeuly, aSi the keepers of these places aud their hangers-on were the chief disturbers of the peace. It was a common occur ence for them to defy office ra and shoot through houses. They com pelled the police judge to resign, ran the county judge and sheriff oat of town, and ran things to suit themselves. They, no doubt, burned tbe court house this sum mer. The Court, under the pro tection of the troops, is doing won derful work. Buck Fagat has been convicted of malicious shooting and given two years in the penitenti ary, and for misdemeanors every man tried has been convicted, and in each case they are given tho ex tent of law. HESCVED AND KESU EllS, Heroic Scenes In Saving the llieli nioud Ladle aud Vouns Itle.TIahoii. Norfolk, Ya., August 15. Mr. Lucian Starke, who saved the youth McMahon, of Rich mond, at Yirginia beach yester day is very sick to-day . "Miss Katie Lee and Miss McMahon, who were saved by Captain Price and a fishing crew leaving their nets and rowing rapidly to where the ladies were struggling in the vater,are unwell, but recovering from their severe shock. A GALLANT YOUTH. Mr. Starke, who is a smi of Col. ,. I). Starke, Look n vta-y heroic part in the rescue. Al though very much exhausted after landing the youth, he made up his mind to try and save the ladies or perish in the attempt, and plunged into the sea a second time. Fortunately the fishing boat came up and prevented a triple drowning as young Starke himself had to be caught by the boatmen and assisted ashore. CAUGHT BY THE 11A1K. The fishing boat completely passed over Miss Lee before the crew saw her, as she was under water; and then by the merest chance one of the men saw her hair on the surface and grasped it. It was an exciting catastrophe, and about fifteen hundred excursionists and others gathered on the beach at the time. Blakliig Goodi for Cblna. Messrs. F. &. II.

The commissioner of agriculture immediately seized such of the company's goods as he could lay his hands on. This company at. once raised the question of the constitu tionality of the tax, and sued out an injunction in the United States circuit court to prevent the further seizure of goods until the matter should be settled, the injunction to hold if the tax should be declared unconstitu tional. The commissioner moved for a dissolution of the injunc tion. The case was argued in tin circuit court here last June before Judges Bond and Sey mour. The commissioner was repre sented by the Attoney-Cleneral and Messrs. Battle and Mor decai, and the company by Col. John Y. Hinsdale. Judge Seymour sent in a decision in the case yesterday, which is concurred in by Judge Bond, and it sets forth that the license tax is unconstitutional.

FULL LIMES OF TUE ABOTK BHOKS FOB. 0ALK BY J. M. HOWARD, Pollock St., New Berne, I i Mil ,; Across the Ocean ia Foar I)aji3 The centrifugal propeller la tb name ol a new invention designed to enable Bteamera to attain extra ordinary speed, atr ictly speaking, the appliance is not a propeller at all; it is simply H remover of re sistance iiueud. The Mteui ol Ihe steamer is cut away downward and backward from the water liue, aud here the rotary fau, or centrifugal machine is placed. The, prensuie and resistance of the water ahead is got rid of by clearing the water away, thus endowing the prodol sive screw or screws in the stern with greatly augmented power. In vessels moving at speeds op to rteveu knots, skiu friction is the principal resistance iu still water; is vessels moving at higher speed the resistance of lbe water im mediately ahead increases at an enormous rate, with the increase of speed This can always be noticed by a huge white wave a swiftly moving vessels baa in front of her the "boffe in her mouth" as the sailors term it. The object of the new invention is to scatter this retarding mass as it is being entered, and by this means it is claimed that the speed of steamers can be iu creased to the point that will admit of their crossing the ocean in four days. Vessels will be fitted wrth this new device for experimental purposes both in this country and in England, aud it is. expected that their speed will be grnally in excess of anything now afloat.
