The perfect organization of the
Democratic forces should not be
longer delayed. Every club, every !
society, every order friendly to the
Democracy should at once forward
into line, preparatory to a general j dihtinsuishrd and talented ,'en;i
' r , t ,. ,,, man, which fesulted iu ldl tn-m

anion there is strength,'' in concert j
of action there is power, and in the
prompt concentration 01 forces
there is the assurace of victory.
''Oar brethren are already in the
field." In Virginia the clarion voice
of Breckenridge, of Kentucky, calls
upon the countrymen of Washing
ton and Jefferson, Jackson and Lee
to come to the rescue of liberty.
In Georgia Gordon is rallying the
true and the brave from the moun
tains to the seaboard to rise in the
majesty of freemen and crush the
oppressor. Is liberty le68 dear or
freedom less sweet to North Caro
linians than to Virginians or i
Georgians! Rise, fellow men or
be forever fallen !
There is nothing more essential
to the liberties of a people than a
pare and capable judiciary, .fudges
are to be elected at the pending
election. In the candidates of the
Democracy of North Carolina for
Supreme and Superior Court
Judges are presented men of the
best character, the highest integri
ty and the fullest capacity. Elect
them, and the rights of the people
are secure in the courts of the
country.
The State is the oustodian of the
life, the liberty and the property
of the people. Hitherto North
Carolina has not been neglectful of
her duties to her citizens, nor in
different to her obligations to the
strangers within her gates.
The present moment is crowded
with responsibilities. Shall North
Caroiina continue to be a tonu
nursing mother to her children, and
the wise guardian of their fortunes
and their fame! Then we must
elect members to the legislature
who will be true to North Carolina.
Men who will honor her at home,
and see to it that she suffers no
detriment from abroad. Let the
present status be preserved. Let
no innovations come to harrass her
people and hinder her prosperity.
She is now on the high road to
a bright and glorious future and
palsied be the hand that would
throw an obstacle in the way of
her progress.
The Craven county Democracy
must put their Bhonlders to the
wheel and elect Perry to the Senate
and Hardison to the House. No
part of North Carolina is so much
interested in the status of the next
legislature as the eastern counties
of the State. Civilization and
social order is involved. The Legis
lature must be Democratic, and
Craven county must do her part in
the grand consumation. The elec
tion of a Democratic Legislature
means the continuation of county
government ; the return of Zebulon
B. Vance to the United States
Senate and the enactment of good
laws for all the people, and the
happiness of the people.
Forward into line, and cairy
your colors to the front !

AN Exchange says: The youth
ful King of Spain has not been out
of the cradle long, but he appears
to have a fall appreciation of his
position in life. One day recently
he was served for lunch with the
breast of a chicken cut into small
pieces. He at once began to help
himself without the aid of either
spoon or lork. "Sire," said the
attendant, gravely, "Kinga never
eat with their fingers." "Tliis
King does," responded his majesty,
continuing his meal.
In a conversation with Lieut.
Gov. Stedman, who has recently
returned from an extended tour
throughout the North-West, he
corroborates what the Star has
recognized forBome time. He says
that the reputation of Senator
Vance is national; that be is every
where recognized as one of the
foremost statesmen of the Repub
lic; that the Democrats of the
North Vest ever speak of him with
love and admiration, and rely
largely upon his courage, his ability
and integrity to win the great fight
for tariff reform. Wilmington

Senator Vance made a great
speech in the Senate on Tuesday,
the 2nd of September. II is con
eluding paragraph is as follows:
Look over that free list, Mr. Pres
ident, and no impartial mind can
see a single solitary article which
is largely imported of any partiou
lar benefit to the farmer in his
basin ess. He will see every one oi
them either for the benefit of the
rieh or for the benefit of the manu
facturer. That is not right, sir; it
is not just, sir; it is almost, I was
going to say, impiety itself to thus
oppress men who, as the instru
ments of the Almighty, answer for
us the prayer He taught us to
uttei: "Give ns this day our daily

is nearly ended in the Senate. The

Many farmers have had better
cotton, fuller and larger, but
the average is where the cotton
"gets there." Some people have
not the best crops they ever had,
but scarcely any one has a soary
one. From observation, and what
can be gathered from farmers of
many years experience, it is safe to
assert that never, certainly since
the war, has the cotton crop been
so generally good. A. J. II

Salt Water Jiaths.
Salt water baths are an excellent
tonic: taken warm they are delight
1 ' lu'l) refreshing when one, is heated
'- or tired, and taken cold they are
' the best preventive in the world of
c I too great susceptibility to colds.
One delicate woman, who used to
fb'ti insist that she "caught a cold on
11 1S i coming into the world and bad
never been without one since,"
: became as indifferent to damp and
! draughts as a sailor after a years's
trial of salt baths.
For those who have sensitive
gums, inclined to bleed on the
slightest provocation, a mouth
wash of salt and cold water used
once or twice a day will harden the
gums and prevent soreness. As
salt is a styptic, any slight bleeding
may be checked by treating the
part with salt water. Persons who
have tender feet will find them
growing much less sensitive day by
day if treated to a daily brisk rub
bing with, cold salt water. New

A Machine to Scale Fish.
A. C. Ware, of Brunswick, has
invented a fish cleaner. He says
the smallest or the largest fish can
be scaled rapidly by the use of the
machine. It consists of two prongs
and hooks, almost like a pair of
fire tongs, only tho edges of the
orongs arc loagh and are slightly
euid tbrwaid. One end of the
maeii ii" is Listened to a table,
while the two prongs are clapped
around the fish, and it is shoved
through the rough edged knives,
taking oil every scale. Savannah

in a letter from Captain John
Nelson, of Hatteras, N. C, the
urgent need of buoys on the inner
shual oil' this most dangerous head
laud is set forth. lie states that
petitions have been sent to the
Lighthouse Board at Washington
to supply this need, but the shoals
are not yet marked.
Wre believe there is no reason
why buoys could not be kept at
Hatteras shoals. The forceof the sea
there is unusually high, but a
buoy can certainly be constructed
that will hold even in these heavy
waters.
The great importance of such
marks to navigation would war
rant the Lighthouse Board in giv
ing early attention to the petitions
mentioned. New York Herald.

Severe but Successful.
I remember being called to a
case of laudanum poisoning, when
after failing to produce vomiting
in every other way, the following
method was successful: A long
whalebone was produced; around
one end of it a rag was wound, and
a string two feet long fastened
thoroughly to the rag. The rag
was then pushed gently down the
a'sopaghus into the stomach, and
then the whalebone a as with
drawn, leaving the string extend
ing from the rag in the stomach
out through the mouth; a gentle
jerking of the string a few times
secured the necessarv irritation
and contraction brought up the
mixture of laudanum, the strong
cofi'ee that had been given as an
antidote to the laudanum, the mus
tard and other portions that had
failed to provoke the vomiting, and
of course the woman recoveied
in due time Pittsburg D's
