The result is over half a page of; stroag, yet graceful, expression of editorial opinions. Then Mr. Hal stead writes a column often a two column editorial to his Cin cinnati paper. A plkeoyman has written the New York Sun bis views on the Kemmler execution, and closes his rigorous letter as follows: uIf every -person henceforth knew that if he murdered a fellow being just so sorely woo. hi he hare the exper ience of Kemmler, I know murder would decrease. "The execution by electricity, with all of its weird and horrible features, is just the method to move tbe superstitious fears of the great criminal class. I, for one, would like to sign a petition to the State Legislature against doing away with it." According to a calculation made by the Economiste Beige, tbe cost of firing a 110-ton gun is, in loand numbers, (832, divided as follows: 900 pounds of powder, $330; 1,980 pounds projectile, 1435; silk for cartridge, 27; total $332. But this is not all. The 110 ton gun, it appears, can be fired but ninety-five times, and after that becomes incapable of being used, and requires repairs. Now, the cost of the piece being 82,400, it is necessary to estimate tbe cost of wear at about (803 for each shot, thus raising the cost of each charge to (1,700. Blaine s reciprocity arguments seem to be bearing fruit. Mr. Davis the removal of the tariff from an article necessary to his former con stituent and recommending the policy of a free exchange of the articles of this and other countries. He says "Americans connot forever live and grow rich off one another." Before the war this was the fore most maratime nation of the world and but for the tariff the foreign trade would be greater than was then. A FiEMEB should take eare to keep7 easy and safe ways of in grass and egress to his cultivated fields. More wagons are broken down by going through deep furrows or over ridges than by' twice the travel on smooth highways. Often in re pairing a road the pathmaster will, if not prevented, spoil tbe way in or out of a field that tbe farmer has made. The farmer should not allow this to be done. The field, if good for anything, ought to load a wagon many times durinsr the year, and will also require a good many heavy loads of manure. The easy entrance to the field may theiefore be quite as important to a farmer as to have good roads in the middle of his highway. Nokth Carolina has wild pas turage enough to maintain hand somely 5,000,000 sheep, and If proper attention were given to it and dog laws passed by our Legis lature to protect sheep husbandry, there is no industry in tbe State that woald yield a greater income to tbe amount invested than that of "sheep raising, but until some law is enacted to protect sheep from dogs, men of capital will be loth to invest it in this State. We call our Alliance friends1 attention to this important matter, and we trust they will vote for no man for the next Legislature until he has committed himself by signing a card or otherwise to vote for a law that will protect this long neglected industry, that will bring millions of dollars into the pockets of our peo ple. Raleigb Farmer. The idea of erecting a monu ment in Richmond to Gen. A. P. Hill, which had its origin abeut the time of the unveiling of the Lee monument, is still being pushed. The Hill monument com mittee have already secured about $1,000 for this object. Maj. Thom as A Brander, who is prominent in this movement, says: "Mrs. Hill was in Richmond recently and a conference was had with ber. It was decided to postpone the erec tion of tbe monument until next spring. It will probably be about Memorial Day. We have had de signs made and shall have a very handsome monument. ' General Hill should have a monument worthy of his great services, and the important part be took in the great straggle ia which be lost bin life. This cannot be erected with the small amount now in the hands of the committee." THE AUSTRALIAN BALLOT SYSTEM. As the frequent allusion in news papers to tbe Australian ballot sys tem is creating a desire for informa tion as to its workings we give the following facts in reference to it : "It has been adopted in several States, the details varying in each. Tbe essential principles of it are, however, the same in all. They are briefly : 1. The printing of the ballot by authority of the State, each ballot containing the names of all the candidates for the offices voted for at the election. 2. The elector designates the candidates for whom he wishes to vote by a X : or other mark, fixed by tbe law, ( placed opposite their names. 3. ; Entire secrecy of tbe ballot, which is secured by providing places to I which only the voter who wishes to prepare bis ticket for tbe ballot ! box can have access, and so ar ranging the approaches to tne ballot boxes that the elector cannot be interfered with by any one from the time he takes his ballot from the proper officer until he deposits tbe same in the ballot box and leaves tbe Immediate vicinity of the polls. Provisions are usually made by which electors who cannot read their ballots can have help ot a designated person to prepare tbe ballots." ; One of the marvels of electricity, 1 and one of the most striking oi tbe j Edison exhibits at the Taris ex ' position, was the little instrument I which enables the operator to sign a check J00 miles distant. Tbe writing to be transmitted is im pressed on soft paper with an ordi nary styths. This mounted on a cylinder, which, as it rerolvee "maker and brakes" the electric current by the varying indenta tions of the paper. At the receiv ing end ot the wire a similar cylin der, moving in accurate synchon ism with the other, receives the current on a chemically prepared paper, on which it transcribes the signatures in a black letters on a hite ground. Due good friend Mr. Robert Ivey, of the Seven Springs section, was in the city yesterday with a load of new crop cotton several bales, which, he says, is the first cotton he has ever sold in August, and he has been farming for 20 years. This will give an idea of how forward the cotton crop is this year in opening and beirtg put on the market. Golds bo ro Argus.

Prayer meeting is held regularly in the Baptist church every Sunday Rev. Mr. Baker commenced protracted meeting at the Baptist ehurcn last Friday. A lot of young men and ladies enjoyed a big fox hunt on horse back last Wednesday. "They got there." Our farmers are complaining of rust in tbe cotton. It is thought the cotton will be damaged very much by it. Our farmers have had a hue week's weather to save fodder, and from appearances hare made good use of the time. The great majority of the farmers of this section feel grateful to Hon. F. M. Simmons for the effort he made in Congress for them against the infamous bagging trust, which caused this trust and other tanfl bred monopolists to send large sums of money in the last campaign to defeat him for re election, and which did cause his defeat. We feel it to be our duty to send Mr. Simmons back to Congress to again battle bravely for our rights. We know he can do far more for ns than a man who has. never bad any experience in legislative halls. Jonea County ltema. ine xreniop men scnooi is getting new accessions daily.

We learn that Mr. Chas. Reizen stein, the proprietor oi the Trenton Mills, has built a large and com mod ions gin house, put in a new gin and press and has put in every thing that is needed for doing first class work both in the mill and gin, which will no doubt cause bim to receive a large patronage. The farmers of Jones county have been too busy the past sum mer to waste time fishing with hook and line.

Hot A lady Weather Philosophy. in the Michigan Farmer' says : lue most or our not weatnt-r lies betorc us. l repare for it by ; simplifying your living as much as possible. When it comes to cooking, banish cookies and fried cakes from the bill of fare until cool autumnal days. They're not sensible eating in hot weather too much time to prepare, too warm work to bake and fry them. Make ginger bread, drop cakes, molasses cake, sweet biscuit, ?nd their kin. There's a great difference in cooks about the same amount of tire thought neces sary. Some cau manage with so little that the kitchen is compara tively comfortable, while others keep tbe lire box cramped and all steam on. Comfort and economy of material are greatly in favor of the least amount of caloric. It is quite an art to get just enough tire, but it is a study one can make profitable. If you rise eaily to get your work out of the way in the cool of the morning,do not forget to pay back to Morpheus what you borrowed of him, with a lew extra winks as interest. The long, long day, after tbe perhaps nnrestful slumber of a warm night, needs to be broken by a nap, as loDg as you can con veniently make it. II you have anything to fret or worry over, postpone the matter till "a more convenient season." Don't fret ; don't scold. It is good hot weather philosophy to keep cool mentally. It is astonishing how easy it is to raise the indi vidual temperature to a ioint in sympathy wnh the weather, just by getting "riled up,'' as Yankees say; and wonderful, indeed, is the might of calm endurance. "A quiet heart can make even a dog day temperate." sam Washington Irving, and there is much of truth in his words. Now, don't think it's because I have no temper of mv own that I advocate putting on the brakes ; I've a full-sized, well-grown one, and it rs because of that faet I am able to speak of the many bene fits arising from its control. My final, closing recommendation is, don't have spasms about the Hies. I knew a woman once who spent one lone, bright, June after noon chasing one lonesome fly that had invaded her sitting-room. She killed him and thought ber welfare was accomplished, but next morn ing she found two of them there. That's tbe way with Hies. Reason able care, by all means, for the suppression of these black coated scavengers, but do not make the house more uncomfortable than would the flies, by fretting about them. Chicago Weekly News. Advance in Flour The price of flour is advancing at a rate to alarm consumers, the quotation in the last ten days showing a rise of G cents a bushel in wheat and forty to sixty cents a barrel in dour. The indi cations are that prices will be still higher in a short time. Flour which a fchort time ago sold at tu.lO and j.35 is now selling at 15.75 and 5,85 and in some instances fanev brand as high as (.. She direct cause of the advance is a general shortage in the wheat crop both in this country and in Europe. Russia, which gcneralh supplies a large portion of Europe will have no more this jear than enough ior her own people, and the demand for American wheat abroad will be larger than the supply. Extended hot, dry spells, succceeaeu oy continuous wet weather and storms, have largely reduced the crops in the West and Southwest. The yield of winter wheat will be very much below the average, and while the spring wheat may turn out better than is anticipated, the crop reports so far received are not veiy promie ing. Oats and corn have suffered more even than wheat, aud of tie former less than one third of a crop wil De harvested while the corn crop will be oniv about one half the average.

Tbe girls went in their prettiest white frocks, tueir brightest ribbons aud sweet est smiles, and after congratula tions formed a circle about the venerable statesman and held him captive for a "school-girl speech." What those pretty British maid eDs heard must have made a very deep impression. Mr. Gladstone reminded them that they belonged to the favored half ot the human race ; that they were sweet and lovely because they were women, and that their very presence was sunshine to t he world. He "ran over" the achievements of their sisters and their mothers, admitted the improvements their industry and earnestness had brought about, and predicted even greater and better changes. Then he became very emphatic, and jvrking his right arm away back, let tly a powerful blow at the strong minded grenadier women of the age. women, and I am not in sympathy with the masculine women.

He thought the world too big and too bad for any one club, one organiza tion or one community to retorm. me is a little plac. and there a good woman can make a heaven, rear a throne and reigu a goddess. In concluding this wise old parlia mentarian said, shading his eyes with his band and looking towards Mrs. Gladstone, who listened at tentively and applauded with ap proving smiles: ! cannot think that anything which attempts or affects to alter fundamentally the relation which the Almighty him self has established, the design of which he has majked out in our constiutions and capacities, or which draw women out of their own sphere, would ever succeed." Some of his views are most dis couraging. He has "the greatest admiration for the woman who has done something in any line, provided she kept away from the pnblic," but has yet to meet the heroine of a career w ho is not brazen or tiresome. "It is not the fault,'' he says, "but the result of contamination. No one can elbow the sweetness wc prize in woman." He thinks that the gain that comes from the outer world from the shop, tho rostrum and the public procession ia more than overpow ered by the loss ot modesty, gen tleness, faith and womanly dignity When affked what women should do he said: "Marry, make homes, mind their children, keep the honeymoon from eclipse and keep off the street- Any reforms they ant to make shonld be made - - - -- . nen tola tnat ail women couiu not marry be said: "It is their own fault, then.

The town authorities of Bayboro are adding substantial improve ments to their town in the wav of sidewalks, draining, etc. The rust, or more properly speak ing, blight, is playing sad havoc with the cotton crop. It is cut short of past prospects at least one quarter. There is quite an uproar over the postoffice at Bayboro; it is a bear fight. It makes no difference to us Democrats. When rogues fall out honest folks get their dues some times. bam Lampeu ana unnson are each preparing to gin cotton and grind corn for their section by putting np steam power for that purpose. They are each reliable, clever gentlemen, and are adding quite a convenience for their pec tion and an improvement to the county. Oaeof the best signs is the ad vance of interest in raising stock. Pamlico can show some as fine colts as any part of North Carolina, aud they are of the stock of the Cleve land Bays, and fine Jersev and Holstein cattle are to be found in various sections of the conntv, and as good hogs as anywhere. The political pot has commenced to simmer and ere long will be in lull blast, and the fear of some that the Alliance will affect the Demo cratic party is, I am confident, with out foundation, for the Alliance ol this county is composed of at least nine-tenths ot as true Democrats as ever cast a vote and time will prove t.

A special dispatch from Seattle, : ashiugtou, says. That Mount I Bogoslova, Alaska; is in a state of eruption. On July 3d, large vol . umes of steam and smoke could be i seen issuing from the volcano, j while at night a pillar of fire thou j sands of ieet in height, was discer- nable lor miles. Bogoslova has been in a stage of active eruption ever since. The sight is a grand one. Steam and and smoke have been seen to issue from the centre, and tire and lava were daily ex pected to be seen issuing from the mouth. Seven years ago Bogoslova blazed and smoked for a time and then settled down to inactivity. The first indications of renewed activi ty Wt,re on the 10th of lastFebruary, when an eruption began, and it has continued at intervals ever since. On tbe 17th and 22d of that month there were signs of great activity, smoke and flames pouring from the lofty crater and rising to a great height. The sky for weeks was clouded with ashes, aud these fell in showers in tbe itown of Hlinlik, forty four miles to the eastward. To the people there who saw the ! ":nl,tlon ll seemed that, e pillar ; of fire and smoke was fully fifteen ! miles high. Just twelve miles; back of the settlement, and between ; it and Bogoslova, rises the volcano ' of Makushin, 5,091 feet high. That ! 1 he eruption Of BogOSlOVa COUld be seen over this lofty obtruction ; gives an idea of the height to which j the6moke and ashes rose. Pro fessor Davidson of the coast survey, i estimated that the volcanic pillar must have been sent up to a height of at least lour miles above the sea in order to have been seen at all by the people at Illiulink. According to the reports of mari ners recived at the time, the moun t iiu of Bogoslova had risen consid erably, and new land had also risen lrom the sea in its vicinity. Captain Everett Smith, of the steam whaler Orca, passed near the scene soon after the eruption last Winter. He noticed that four new isles had risen near the Volcano Island. As the ocean bot tom tnre right off Bogoslova souuds 844 fathoms and as there is a depth of 1,200 fathoms about twelve miles away, an idea may be gained of the tremendous energy required to raise an isle from the ocean bottom to and above tbe sur face of the ocean.

On the 4th of last June, tbe city was startled to hear of the elopgment of Miss Carinne Neisler with one Charles G Lamoine. Miss Neisler had met Lamoine im Atlanta, where she was visiting friends, and formed a deep attachment for him. Her parents objected to the match, bat under the pretense of attending the exercises of the unveiliug of the Lee statue, the young lady went to Richmond, and there met Lamoins Her parents were astonished to receive a tele gram announcing her marriage in Boston. Humor in the meanwhile was rife. It was reported that Lamoine was a noted bigamist. Deplorable to relate these rumors appeared to be only too true. e-rrfl?7LM&c& ZIMSX&S: arrested on a warrent sworn out on a charge of bigamy, by Mrs. C. G.

The resnlt was that Lamoine was placed under a bond of $500 and his Charlotte bride fined S19.G2. The unfortunate lady telegraphed to her grief stricken family todav for monev to come home on. The young lady's family is among the best in Charlotte, respected by all and moving in the best circles The shock comes unpon them with crushing force. They have the 8vmpatbv of all the citizens of Charlotte, and what now seems to be such a dark clou of affliction, it is hoped, will some what disappear when the idol of the family circle gets back to her southern home.

Philadelphia Interfectuallt)-. Mr. Spofford, librarian of Oon gress, is reported as saying tbat America bas not produced during the last twenty years "a single autbor of great genius liko Nathan iel Ilawthorne or ltalpb Waldo Emerson." This is quoted in a way to lead unthinking people to suppose tbat America is producing no eminent writers. But on close inspection it ia found that tbe statement is limited to authors "like" Ilawthorne and Emerson. Even with this limitation it is not unlikely the statement is too broad, for here in the single cify of Phila delphia there has been produced at least one author in works of the imagination whose books will live as long as liawtborne 8. Tins if George II. Boker. And in works of a different but more scholarly character the writings of Henry Charles Lee, based npon tho patri otic literature of the middle agec, will be likely to survive when Haw- thorne's are forgotten.
