The Goldsboro Argus says of the meetiDg conducted by Rev. H. ; W.

The damages claimed have amounted to $2S.000 000, and they can't even see the end of the wire yer, to ay nothiDg about the suit. The remarks of Mr. Kennedy having been expnDged from the Congressional Record by the vote of Republicans, a precider.t has been set which they may take ad vantage of to expunge the whole Record. It ought to expunged for it is a blot on the civibzition of the age. Be not deceived. The l.uce bill is not dead. It wi 1 come up in its regular order when Congress meets in December. Nothing can prevent its passage bat the protest of the people. If properly pre sented daring the pending Con gressional Campaign, all sections of the country will declare against it and then, and not until then may its epataph be written. Harvard and Yle have for years been rivals in boat races and athletic contests, it is pleas ing to know that tbey are showing some appreciation ol the purpose for which, they were established by becoming rivals in numbers. There are about 400 men in each univer sity. Harvard leads in the num ber of its academic students, but Yale has the greater number of scientific men. Perhaps these venerable institutions may become rivals in scholarship. Mr. Neill McKay was lately nominated for the House of Repre sentatives by the Republicans of Moore County. In a card to the Jonesboro Leader he says: ''Please allow me space in your paper to ay that I have severed my con nection with the Republican party. The history of the present adminis tration and the acts of the colored convention at Raleigh, are reasons enough for my taking this course. I expect to support the Democratic ticket, and hereafter woik in full accord with the Democratic party. Neill McKay." TnE Progress of the age is not confined to material developments, bat is making giant strides in science. The Lick telescope is re puted to be the greatest in the world, but the new telescope now in progress of boilding by the Clarks of Cambridge for the Uni versity of California will have an object glass 40 inches in diameter, while the object glass of the Lick instrument ia only 3" inches across. The addition of lour inches in this case may look a small matter, but it is really like adding an inch' to the end of a man's nose. It will immensely increase the power of surveying the planets and the stars. Theee is no natural bouD arv ! line tetween Virginia and Carol ina; on the contrary there is a natural bond between them.

' SELF-RELIANCE. j Nothing is more essential to sue- cees in life than self reliance. It is j the very esseuce of manhood. : The school boy who has no con fidence i i himself, but goes for assistance the moment a diflicult problem is presented can never be come a scholar. The city that puts forth no eil'ort of its own, but waits for distant communities to come and lay their treasures in its lap, can never become a commercial em poriu m. Admitting that self reliance is necessary to success in all avoca tions and among all people, it is pre eminently true that the South has been thrown back upon her own resources and her sons made the arbiters of their own fortunes. The Federal Government sees fit to oppress labor everywhere, but nowhere is oppression so grievous as at the South. Not content with an attempt to humiliate her by de nying to her equality in the Union t not satisfied with driving her repre sentatives from the halls ol Con gress and giving their seats to aliens who are hostile to her rights, she is compelled to furnish the means for defraying the expenses of the Administration by which she is oppressed. No man can de ny that agriculture is more heavily taxed, by present laws, than any other industrial pursuit, and it is established beyond controversy that the department of agriculture peculiar to the South is espec''y burdened. What is to be done to meet this condition of affairs T Shall we re sort to the boycott Not as that i term is usually employed, but we j may make new commercial alii ances, and transact our business through cannels unobstructed by hostile legislation and uncon taminated by sectional malevolence. But the great need of the Southern farmer, in the present emergency, is self reliance. God has given us a magnificent country. Our fields bring forth abundantly, and our barns are overflowing with golden grain. By diversifying labor our resources can be quadrupled, and want, in any of its hideous forms, be a stranger at our gates. North Carolina can be an empire within herself. With her own marts of commerce; her own fur naces ; her own manufactures; her own fields; her own vines and fig trees; "her printing press; her schools and colleges, her temples and her shrines, with none to molest or make her afraid. Reverencing the Constitution and obeying the laws, our people may rely upon themselves to achieve a high and glorious destiny. TOLiriCS IN NORTH CAROLINA. This is what is called an off year in politics ; that is, there is no presidential canvass to excite interest and create enthusiasm. In the earlier days of the Re public no election was so impor tant as the presidential election. The President was the accredited and actual head ol his party, and measures were introduced by his friends and supporters that accorded with his policy. Now Congress is the great power of the nation. The Speaker of the Houf e and the chairman of the committee of ways and means, have a prepon derating weight in national affairs. Look at the history of this country for the last ten months. Reed and McKinley have been everything Harrison aothing. This year Congressmen are to be elected in nearly every State in the Union. The questions involved in this election affect the personal nterestsot every cititizen, and will have a potential influence in fixing the destiDy ol American institu tions. Our system of Government is on trial. The elections this year mast in a large measure determine whether the Constitution shall re main the supreme law of the land or be buried in the wreck of the Government established by our fathers. The force bill is aimed at the citadel of liberty, and if that fortress falls all is lost. North Carolina must do her part in this great emergency. She must send a solid Democratic delegation to Washington men who will speak for the rights of the States and the liberties of the people. A special responsibility rests upon the rank and file of the De mocracy in the second district. The convention placed our district in the hands of W. J. Rogers, of Northampton, a worthy man, a citizen identified with agricultural interests, and a trjie Democrat. In consequence of a long and pain ful illness, he has not been able to enter upon the canvass of his district. Every man who has the instincts of patriotism should lift high the Democratic standard, and prove to the world that though the second district has been deluged by the surging waves of Republican ism the spirit of liberty survives and the Democracy is invincible. lat there is a higher responsibili ty resting upon North Carolinians in this campaign. Our civiliza tion is at issue. The next legisla ture must be Democratic. Material prosperity, domestic security, hie, honor and happiness are all in- volved in the issue. The next legisla ture must be Democratic. The National Bank system will probably come to a natural end in a dozen years, as the bonds on which it is based will be retired in regular course by that time; and in expectation of that, State banks of issue ought now to be freed from ' the tax which destroyed them in ' order to make a place for the National server. Banks. News and Ob- TIIKSEtt AMl-LOITKRV BILL I a ' r u v li on to PoattuAf I en Hetng Pre paredWide Scope ol tbc Act. Judge Tyner, the Assistant Attorney-General for the Post Oflice Department, has about completed the instructions to postmasters in regard to the enfor cement of the anti lottery law. He intends to consult with Judge Taft, the Solicitor-General before they are finally issued. It has been found that the law is more com prehensive than is generally sap posed. In prohibiting lotteries it also prohibis all Bchemes for dis tributing prizes by chances and applies to the church fair as well as to the great Louisiana Lottery Company. An advertisement for a church fair which speaks of a rallle or anything of the kind would be excluded from the mails. A POINT TO BE SETTLED. Judge Tyner has had referred to him for decision a question as to whether a news paper published in Texas that has a guessing scheme can be admitted to the mails. The paper oilers a prize to the lady who wili guess tha name of the most popular man, and all the details lor voting, S:c-, are printed in the paper. Judge Tyner has not as yet made a ruling on this question, but it is only a sample ot the various problems that are presented for his decis ion. Sub Stations ot llie N". C . Agricultural, aiid Experiment Station. j In order to bring the work of the: Experiment Station more directly j before the- farmers of the various : localities of rhe State and to secure i the benefits resulting from experi- ' ments on various soils, It has been j decided to establish sub-stations in j about eight or nine representative localities. These points will be three in the section west of Raleigh, ' and three in the central section west of Raleigh, and two iu the : mountainous sectioc These sub : stations will work in connection j with the Central Statiou at Ral eigh in conducting field tets with fertilizers, in testing varieties of grasses,7tforage crops, fruits, vege tables, etc., in trying improved implements, new agricultural meth ods, and in the general sense to try experiments in agriculture. Neces sarijy the beginning will be small, and it is expected that it will be sometime before results can be pointed to, but success is bound to be reached sooner or later. In the meantime every one should be patient, and be ready to co operate in the work and give it a helping hand, to take inteiest in what is being done and watch the work as it progresses. The bulletins of the Station will contain full reports of operation at the various sub stations. H. B. Battle. In Behalf of Irelaad. Indianafonlis, Oct. 2 Tom linson Hall which seats 0,000 peo ple was packed last night by friends of the Irish cause, who had as sembled to express their sentiments regarding the recent arrest ol Dillon and O'Brien and the conduct of their trial at Tipperary. Mayor Sullivan presided, and made a strong appeal in behalf of Ireland. Rev. J. S. Jenks,of St. Paul, Minn., and Hon. Wm. H. English, Judge N. B. Taylor, and other prominent speakers addressed the meeting. Along series of resolutions was adopted. Among them was one which after denoaaoing Balfour and Salisbury pledged the meeting by all honorable means at our com mand to sustain the Irish people in that moral straggle until it cul minates in the glorious achieve ment of home rule for Ireland. A FOIL. OUTRAGE. A Negro Narrowly Ettapei Lynching for His Rclieoui Crime. Wilmington, Del., October 2, Grade Clark, the 10 year-old daughter of Tasker T. Clark, a farmer, was assaulted on Sunday evening while she was playing in her father's barn, near New Castle, by Jacob Starker, a negro weigh ing ISO pounds. Starker was cap tured to day, and had to be taken secretly to the jail, owing to the threats made against him. At the hearing this morning the prisoner was committed to jail without bail to answer the charge The negro had compelled the child to keep silent about the affair under a threat of drowning, but her suffer ings through injuries became un bearable and she told everything. Kinsey Female Seminary. We met Mr. Jos. Kinsey, princi pal of the Female Seminary at La Grange, Saturday and were pleased to learn that his school is in a prosperous condition. The attendance is better than last year. He has added new features. In addition to an art department man aged by Miss Day, of Syracuse, so successfully last year, he has opened a business department in charge of Miss Noel!, of Christianburg, Ya. In this department is tanght book keeping, stenography and type writing. Miss Noell is a practical shorthand teacher, able to take down a speech or sermon as a fast as delivered, and Mr. Kinsey has a new No. - Remington typewriter for her use iu teaching the joong ladies to Lit themselves for bust uess. He has in his commodious build ing five new upright Wheelock pianos. The music class numbers 47 pupils, and is under the manage ment of Misses Moore and Worth ington. Miss Rogers, of West Virginia, has charge of the literary depart ment, and Miss Alice Saunders, of Onslow county, the primary. The boardeis last year repre sented 17 counties in this State : this year he has pupils from Georgia and 'West Virginia. He gives constant employment to six teachers who board in the building with the pupils. He gives the school his personal attention, exer cisees a supervision over the entire work and teaches classes in mathe matics and Latin. When asked what was the secret of his success, he replied : Liberal ADVERTISING AND HARD WORK. This school is an individual enterprise, owned and managed by the principal. Whenever new teachers are wanted, he advertises for them ; and when he finds those lor tnem ; anu wnen ne uaus tnose fitted for the work required he takes ! them regardless of locality or church relations hence the school is non sectarian, is rnn on business prin ciples and is bound to succeed. 1 Kinston Free Press. T . ; You will never find time for any- thing: if you want time yon must make it. Industry is fortune's right hand i and frugality her left. Fort B -Miss Fannie Wooten lias opened a fashionable millinery at this place. The Barnwell school continues to increase. New pupils enter nearly every week. Miss Blanche White, of Kin.tou, who had been visiting relatives here, returned home last week. The temperance pledge is a great and useful thing, but it must be invigorated by Christian principle. Chinquapins have been verv plentiful here this season. They j have been selling at five cents a pint. j The large Btocks of goods re- ceived by our merchants indicate J that a good fall trade is antici pated. j The Alliance has been a valuable I educator to the people and set ; every man to thinking for himself, i and has destroyed all leadership ; and man his owu leader. Several of onr farmers are in need of hands to pick cotton. They j think mighty hard of "Peg-Leg" tor taking the colored man off to i die in the swamps, instead of leav j ing him here where he could make ! an honest living. The cotton crop, although cut ot! in August and somewhat damaged j by the recent rains, is the fiuest for a number of years. It can be safely called a big crop in this , section. The corn crop is about as fine as ever seen, and onr farmers ar6 generally in a good condition, especially considering the terrible condition they were in last year about this time and later. ; The Republicans of this county held a speaking at Fort Barnwell ion the 4th inst. The first speaker, Mr. Williams, made a point on j oar Sheriff, saying he was not fit to , be Sheriff, for he had failed to , collect his tax. and dared him to do jit. The Sheriff says the reason ho ; has not collected it is because Wil I liams's name is not on the tax list, but will know the reason. The next speaker was Mr. Uussey. He said that there was a foot log to cross, and Bull and himself made the attempt to walk over it, but being like a dog with a bob tail, he failed to get over. He then told a story, how to tell a buzrard from a crow or turkey, which he showed could be easily done by the aroma of the buzzard. It struck me as being a very appropriate and effective way to te'l a Republican trom a Demo crat. The next speaker was Mr. Green. Ho seemed to be extreme ly anxious to prove that he was as well educated as Mr. Biddle and consequently as capable of attend ing to the duties of the office he sought, lie even proposed to stand a competitive examination to prove it. The next and last speaker was Mr. Hancock, in the words ot the chairman, "reduced" to audience as the most popular and eloquent orator of North Carolina. The speaker seemed highly elated with the compliment. He spoke of Mr. Chapman and Mr. Mosley as being his equals and run them np as high as angels. He forthwith drew forth the bloody shirt and waved it and shook the old garment until I thought it must certainly go to pieces. He then took np the G. O. P. and after singing the charges on it, until he was about exhausted and the audience worn out, and vanished, except a few of the faithful, bo seemed to have them where he wanted them. Then he began to apply the whip and spur, which he continued to do until he became so much exhausted that he retired to the G. P. O. for rest and refreshments. A. J. H. THE CZAR IS SCARED, Extra Precaution to Pnerif Ills Llfe- Roaslan Cruelties. London, Oct. 4. Advices from Kussia represent the Czar as taking new precautions for the protection of his person. None except cabinet ministers are ad mitted to an audience without the presence of an officer of the guard and the eastern custom of tasting food before it is placed on the sovereign's table, has been revived after having been in innocuous desuetude many years. in e Kusssian autocrat seems suspicious of every one around him, and even his favorite advisors are said to fear an interview with him, The recent attempt to wreck a train on which he was supposed to be riding, has greatly added to the Czar's irritation andj he is known to have given orders for the immediate deportation to Si- bera of the large number of persons arrested on suspicion of having been connected with the act. Among these unfortunates, are wo sentinels whose duty it was to guard the part of the line where the obstruction was placed, was sentenced by Court-Marshal to be hanged to a lingering death in the mines. Three peasants who were arrest ed near the spot have been terribly knoated, one oi them fatally, althongh there is said to be no ground whatever to suppose them guilty of any connection with the train wrecking. The two others, had their lives spared for the time in order that a confession might be extorted from them. The wife of the peasant who died under the knont went mad when she heard o his fate. The letter containing these par ticulars came by way of Zurich, and is lrom a source of unquestion ed authenticity. The further statement is made that the Nihil ists are unusuall active, and the friends of the victims of Siberian massacres, do not mean that they shall go unavenged. THE illl SHIP. Luuk Dreamer of Now Coming Reality. Chicago, Oct. 4. The Times this morning says that a project for the establishment of an air ship company was completed yes terday, and today at Springfield, the Mount Carmel Aeronautic Manufacturing Company will be chartered with a capital of $2,000, 000. Within sixty days the first air ship is to arrive in Chicago. The company is backed by a pow erful English svndicate and by ea8tern capitalists. The proposed air sbj vkhich the company is to build, and models of which have been successfully tested, will carry cars the size of the Pullmans and will seat fifty persons each. Spec ial cars are being manufactured for quick mail and passenger ser- vir The great secret of happiness is to throw one's self into the circum stances that surround one. Jones County Items. The farmers are utilizing every tair day picking cotton and gather ing in their other crops. Dr. O. B. "Woodley, who has been sick for several days at Kinston, is now home again at Trenton. Simon E. Koonce, jr., son of Mr. S. E. Koonce, of Trenton, has been elected principal of the Jones borough High School. The Jones County Alliance met at Trenton on Friday last, and after transacting important busi ness adjourned to meet on Friday next, the 10th inst. The Hon. F. M. Simmons will address the citizens of Jones coun ty at Trenton on Saturday, October 11th. Come out all and let us give him a rousing reception. The most surprising thing to ns is to hear a Democrat say to a brother Democrat go into the high ways and gather np every vote and try and keep the Republicans out of your county offices. If they get there your county will find out that they ought not to be there, and after the election if the Republican is elected, then to see this same Democrat walk np to the offioer elected, pat him on the shoulder and Bay "I can aid you a few thousand dollars on yoar bond." Ain't it strange T Ain't it enough to make an old hard shell Democrat exclaim "what a wonderful world and what wonderful people in it?" The Republicans of Jones coun ty held their county nomination on Saturday iast. Edward Kinsey, colored, was elected chairman and 1). L. Hicks, colored, secretary. Frank Green, Esq., was nominated for the Legislature ; Mr. John Homer was endorsed for Sheriff, and John W. Bryan for Coroner. The Clerk of Superior Court and Register of Deeds and Treasure were left open. The only explana tion that we heard about not filling their county ticket fell from Mitchell Kinsey, who remarked to some of the delegates who en quired why not make a full ticket, that is was useless that the Demo crats in Jones would not let them bond. Every township and pre cinct was fully represented. All the delegates were colored but two and one of tbem was a candidate for the Legislature and the other we suppose was a candidate in the prospective for something. No need of my attempting to give you a description of the fanny scenes enacted dnring the time as it is impossible for pen to describe it. We trust that every Democrat in Jones county will recollect that our next Legislature will have to redistrict the State and make new senatorial districts and new con gressional districts. Suppose the Rads with their aids, the inde pendents, were to get a majority in the Legislature don't we all know that they would gerrymander the 8tate so that it would be impos sible for us ever to elect another Democratic Senate or elect not more than one or two members of Congress? Recollect one vote may elect your Senator, or one may elect your Representative and their election might give us the control of the next Legislature and prevent a Radical gerrymander of the State, and besides instead of having the Hon. Z. B. Vance to represent us in the Senate of the United States we might have Cheatham or Jas. Harris. Let every man do his duty and all will be well. A NEW COURT DECISION Affecting tha Right of tbc W. V. Tele graph to TJse Highway for Strlnclag Their Wire. Grand Bapids, Mich., Oct. 3. The decision made in the United States court yesterday is very im portant to the entire country, as it affects the right of the Western Union Telegraph company to use highways for their wires. It is the opinion of the court that the act oi Congress permitting the Western Union to use all the government postal routes to string their wires is permissive only, and does not give the company the right to go into the States and use the high ways unless by State authority. Thrown Illmeir on the Mercy of the Court. Columbus, Ind., Oct. 3. Wil liam H. Schrieber, the confidential book keeper" of the first National Bank of this city, who in 1888 robbed the bank of $300,000 in cash and ponds, and who was cap tured in Detroit and yesterday lodged in jail, broke down before the bank officials and turned over all of the 111 acquired wealth that he had not already spent. He will throw himself on the mercy of the court on a plea of guilty. Au Awful and Fatal Mistake. Columbus, Miss., Oct. 3. Within the last few days the resi dence of Mr. E. E. Calhoun, of this place, has been entered several times by a burglar. Night before last Harry Calhoun and his young friend Charley Mahon, were watch ing for the burglar when Mrs. Cal noun gave the alarm. The boys were in different parts of the grounds and Mahon mistaking Calhoun for the burglar, fired and killed his friend instantly. A MiuisteTioT Bake. Soeanton, Pa., Oct. 3. The liev. Peter Koberts, pastor of the Plymouth Congressional Church in this city, was sued for breach oi promise yesterday. Miss Annie Husabee, of New Haven, Conn, is the plaintiff, and she asks for $50,- 000. Roberts met Miss Husabee when he was a student at Yale. Their relations, according to the woman's story, became very inti mate, and a marriage was deemed advisable, but Koberts had a little money and he pursuaded her to consent to a criminal operation, promising to marry her after his ordination. He has since tried to settle with her for a money con sideration, bnt they could not agree on terms, hence the suit. Miss Husabee never recovered from the operation, and has become a physical wreck. Will He Acknowledge the Corn 7 Jesse Christian (colored) was before Squire Vincent at the coun ty court-house yesterday, charged with stealing six barrels of corn. The case was continued nntil Octo ber 10th and bail was allowed the prisoner in the sum of one hundred dollars. Mr. T. V. Powderly says that an experience of twenty years among workingmen convinces him that liquor has done more harm to workingmen than all other causes. It is not the drinking man alone who suffers, for three dannkeu men in a hundeed will prevent the other ninety-seven from accomplishing what they seek." i ''What a friend have in Sang a little child one !;. , And a weary woman listem-i To the darling's !jry All her life seemed daik and g!.i..::. .

The people aown nere want to see anu hear him talk. ! Our pulpit was filled last night j by Capt. Eugene Yeomans, ot I Carteret countv. the congrega-: tion was large and well pleased. W.F.Bell, 3d, is just the same. When you want a good laugh go and see Billy Bell and you will get it. He too has a good crop and one ot tne finest borses in tne county. Mr. Gilman spoke at Sandere' Store, Carteret county, last Thurs day to a large crowd, and said he had invited his opponent, Mr. Koonce, to meet him at Swansboro on the 13th inst. Cotton crops are turning out very well in Onslow and Carteret conn ties, much better than was ex pected before picking time came. Corn, peanuts and sugar cane are also very good. Sweet potatoes, field peas, turnips and pumpkins, with other garden vegetables, are plentiful, and the farmer can enjoy himself this winter when he kills his fat hogs, of which he has many. Mrs. H. R. Ward has a pumpkin vine in her garden, in Swansboro, with 16 ripe, large pumpkins on it, and if she hadn't kept it cut erf continually, we don't know how many it would have born. Mr. G. AY. Smith has 200 head of hogs in his pea patch now. He has 65 acres in peanuts, 125 in cotton, from which he will, he thinks, get 1,000 lbs. seed cotton to the acre ; and 200 in corn, besides rye and other small grain. No marriages or deaths this week, as far as heard from. There is more courting in Swansboro and less marriages than any little place I know of. There are parties here who have been courting for four years steady and are at it yet the same parties too. A new Baptist church (Mission ary ) was organized last week in Carteret county, at Old Bethlehem, by Revs. D. McLeod from Beaufort, and D. F. Aman and Benj. ard Onslow. The name given is "Cool Spring Baptist Church" number ing.about twenty members. Our candidates commence to go around soon. Their appointments are as follows : Oilman's, Oct. 9 Morton's, Oct. 10 ; Mills, Oct. 11 Swansboro, Oct. 13 ; Linwood, Oct 14 ; Marine's, Oct. 15 ; AYilliams Score, Oct. 16 ; Golden Place, Oct 17 ; Aman's Store, Oct. 18 ; Cross Roads, Oct. 20; Catharine Lake Oct. 21; Richlands, Oct. 22. T.E Gilman, senatorial candidate, will speak at Tuckahoe, in Jones conn ty, on the 23d inBt. Other ap pointments will be regulated by the Democratic executive committee of Jones county. We took a trip in Carteret coun ty last week, visiting farms schools, etc. They have excellent crops. AVe saw good crops of cot ton, 1,000 lbs. to the acre, and grapes and apples are plentiful there. George Dennis says he is broke, but he has more large pump kins and more corn to the man than any farmer we know of, and when he saw the blind man and heard him talk, George got rich and carried all hia children, his wife aunts, cousins and uncles to see the concert, and he was well 6atibhed and would go again. Professor Harry Corrt-11, the blind bugler of Co. B, 17th lrginia cavalry in the late war, is traveling around a little, giving concerts on the organ and clarionet, in order to live. Last Thursday and in day nights he gave two entertain ments in Carteret county, one at Sanders' Store, the other at Oak Grove school house; and they were just Bplendid. He can play two tunes at one time, different ones too. Can play on two instruments at once, and played different tunes also. The Professor is a natural prodigv. He is coming to Swans boro, and going around in Jones, Carteret and Onslow counties, and if you wish a treat go and see him and hear him talk, sing and play. His charges are very moderate. He was born blind. Democracy Kuiueil. If the democracy of Pamlico County is ruined or injured, it certainly has been done by sore- headed, weak kneed usurpers. The Alliance men of Pamlico County are charged with having gobbled the primary meetings, and had the delegates already made up and prompted to suit themselves. This may or mav not be as Mr. J. M. Reel says. If Mr. Reel is correct in his assertion, what damage has been done ? The old officers were renominated except for Coroner Dr. F. P. Gates, and for Represen tative Jas. F. Brinson, I am just as certain that no better selection could have been made in Pamlico Co. as Mr. Reel is sure of its being a sad day for the Democracy of Pamlico Co. Now in conclusion, we demagogues or alliance men, or some of us at least, are just as good democrats as the gentleman whose article I am attempting to answer. And don't you forget it.
