W- ' -it 1 l . ... ve are oi inosu who never lose lailn in ' the people. They go wrong sometimes. Frequently they arc deceived. But their final judgment is next to the Divinity in its wisdom and potency. The Democrat ictparty of America is what its name imports. ! .With all its faults and we love it with every, fault and blunder in eluded it is the popular party, the party of progressive and vital freedom. It changes not its cardinal demand f r honest men to execute honest mejas'ures, but it is flexible in taking into it ancient, growing, tree graits ot fresher generations, lhe great Democratic party ps not moribund. It can not die until liberty itself dies. It is the Iople's party, and the people love it and cling to it. v j The elections, yesterday, may have de .fea ted some; cherished plans. We do not think that there! has been a serious mis- f t i - . carriage anywnere, However. liut, sup- i josc some one well beloved soii of the par ty is beaten at the polls, it will not affect the future of the Democracy. Whether gains wi re inade,3or losses sustained and The Sun is hopeful, very sanguine the party, with its organization, and above all its aims, is intact, and will make itself felt in the u flairs of the country. The history of this party is' wonderful. Changing its spirit oh soine questions in V; the ninety years of its existence, absorbing new elements, putting forward leaders differing in many respects fromHhose of early times, it still preserves its distinctive feature?. What it was in Jefferson's day it is now the reign right of upholder of the sover the people to hear and determine for themselves all great questions of trade, finauce and governmental policy. The thunderous voice of Jackson, it is true, finds no i echo. But the times are 'changed, anil we change with them. For Jacksonisni we have Thurtnanismand Dayardism. ForfSilas Wright and Marcy we have Hendricks and Ransom. The age is more pacific, age the same in Democracy follows the the things it advocates ; changed only in ic manner of their advo cacy, j This glorious purty, as The Sun chooses calmly send with; deliberation to call the Democracy, hasaifuture before it as bright as its past. The Clouds that have environ ed it since the war are being rapidly dis solved. Presently the sunlight of triumph will stream in more than the proud glory of Marengo or Sadpwa over the war-worn line of the party of Jefferson and Jackson, of Davis and Yancey, of Bayard and Gordon. ; PERSONAL PARAGRAPHS.

With what has been now actually gained in the choice of Senatorial electors 'it ap pears to be certain that the renewala to be made in January next will give the Repub licans a majority in - the French Senate. The is an important success, as indicating the faith 'with which the French people contemplate the Republican machinery of government after a good trial of its opera tion. And the France that has thus declared its ' faith in Republican ideas is not that: France of universal suffrage whose verdict has been decried ly all the reactionary elements as that of ignorance, prejudice and fanatical popular passion, but it is France consulted in a way con trived by the enemies of the Republic' as one most likely to bring out that sentiment which it has been believed was opposed to Democratic ideas. At last, therefore, even that France is convinced that it is time to try, sincerely and honestly the only politi cal svstem that is no longer a conspiracy. Both representative bodies will now, there- iore, oe republican, and inese on join ballot, will elect the next President, who will certainly be a republican of whose iaitn ana principles mere can De no aouoi. - 1 1 ' A fire at Boykhvs depot, on the Sea board and Roanoke railroad, Saturday, destroyed the cotton gin of J.

A dispatch from Washinirton states that Secretary Sherman, in his annual renort to Congress, will disenss at length' the ,aes tion of.ilver, and will irive an imnnt of the operations of the silver act up to the present time. He believes that ih iiw should be. modified, and will recommend several changes. Mr. Sherman thinks that the issue of silver should be limited, and will ask Congress to fix a limit beyond; which the coinaee of silver dollars shall not go. The Secretary thinks that the gradual retirement oPo 1 1 National bank notes under the denomination of five dol lars will increase the issue of silver dollars. ' Under the National bank laws the issue cf ! one and two dollar National bank notes wll cense upon the return to pece pajv merit, and as there is now no doabt that resumption will be an established fact on the 2nd of January next, there will be.no ' more small National bank notes issued, and j - those already issued will be retired as fast ; ai they come into the Treasury. The j Secretary will not go -so far as to recnin-' mend the repeal of the silver act, but, on : the contrary, he is satisfied that gold and , silver may go side by side as. money , i ;The report of Dr. Lindermaii, the direc- I tor of the mint, has been finished. He will refer at length to the coinage of the new silver dollar and give the capacity of the mint to coiu it. lie-will indicate the extent to which the coinage will go, unless some limit is established, and it is proba ble he will, express the opinion that the total amount sliould not exceed a hundred millions. The director will also have something to say about the supply of the precious metals, but, taking advantage of, nis previous experiences, will not refer to any mine or corporation. He will estimate the supply of bullion lor the next, year,' both from quartz and hydraulic mining. Mr. Knox, controller of the currency in his annual report will, as usual, defend the nat'onal banks, and 'declare-the system the best that has ever been devised. He could not be a stronger advocate of the system if he was the paid attorney of the two thousand banks. The cap tul of tlie-e banks is about $481,000,000."' In bis last report Mr. Knox said that there was no doubt that the national banks would be prepared to redeem their circulating notes at any date of resumption which might be fixed upon. The controller will renew his recommendations in hi- lust report, and make no new ones of importance. RA1I.KOAI) ACCOUNTS. The new auditor of railroad accounts un der the Pacific railroad act of last winter has already begun to have trouble with the subsidy companies. As required by law he called upon the various companies which had received government aid (about forty five in number) for reports of their .earn ings, etc. Some of lhe roads complied with the demand and others, refused. Among those that refused was the Central Pacific Company. The Secretory of the Interior will accordingly transmit the formal report of the. auditor of the Attorney General setting forth the refusal of Leland Stan ford, president of the Central Pacific Com pany, ami ask that proceedings -on behalf of the United States be begun under the fifth section of the act. The-penalty for the violation of its provisions is .not less than $1,000 and not more than 5000. The courts will thus be called upon to de cide the question, and ultimately to test the constitutionality of the law. The roads in question, as decided by the Secretary of the Interior and the Attorney : General, are divided as follows: First, I those which received a subsidy of bonds; j second, those which received a grant of j lands directly from the United States, and third, those which received lands from the States under giants made to the latter by the United States. Officers of roads un der each of these classes have acknoNvl edged that the law included their lines. All roads belonging to any of the above classes, which lie' either wholly or in part.! West of a meridian passing through the mouth of the Missouri river, have been en tered in the auditor's list as legally bound to report to his office. PUBLIC BUILDINGS. Mr. Hill, the supervising architect of the treasury, has prepared his annual re port and submitted it to the secretary. The list of government buildings finished since his last annual report includes those in New York, Jersey City, Dover, Del., Raleigh, N. C, Parkersbvrg, W. Ya., and Covington, Ky. The cost of the New York building is found to have been about $8,000,000. Work has gone on at satis factory rates of drogress upon all the pub lic bnildings now in course of rectum. The estimate for the Philadelphia building for the next year is $500,000. Mr. Hill thinks that at the present rates of appropriation it will require at least three years to-finish the structure, but that it could be done in two with adequate appropriations. The appropriation of $450,000 for the present year is about half exhausted. The Business Outlook. Baltimore Sun. . It cannot be said, perhaps, that there is yet such a revival of business and resump tion of industries as to ful'y employ all the labor of the conntrv. and at the hisrh orices which prevailed prior to 1873, yet there' are cheerful and encouraging evidences on all sides of a better and much improved state of thincrs, both for labor and trade. The positive effects of the frost are at last seen in Memphis, Vicksburg, New Or- leans and the other places lately scourged by the yellow fever, and absentees and new recruits are rushing to those cities from all points, while business is said to be "springing into activity beyond expec tation." October has generally been a busy month throughout the whole coun try, showing greatly increased re turnip over the same month of last year. There is some sympathy in our ex- port market with the disturbed state of affairs in Europe, but buying and selling, both wholesale and retail, is brisker in all lines of goods, and this has stimulated man facturing in a very encouraging degree. The trade journals report throughout the Middle States a greater employment for the leading industries than at any time since since the panic. The glass manufac tories at Pittsburg are doing an improved business, and the manufactories of hard ware, steel and irbn. and the country trade at the great distributing cities of the "West are all spoken of as being in a thrifty s'tate. We learn from "Boston, also, of an improve ment In the boot and shoe manufacture of the most marked description. , The manufac turers all, without exception, using the McKay & Bigelow heeling machine, and paying a royalty for each pair of heels made by it, the statistics of the - manufac ture can be very accurately kept, the re ceipts of the company owning the machiqe indicating the exact number of boots and shoes made. The revival began in Sep tember, and there are said i to have been mare boots and shoes made in' that month than during any single month in the his tory of the industry, the number turned out being at the rate of fifty million pair per annum, against twenty-five million pair for nine months in LB77. The sales j are good: they are nur.de more largely for cash than ever before, and the trade is represented to be in a flourishing condi- j tion. liean 8anler The genial Dean Stanley, who is shortly to . leave for England, ' has been over whelmed with courtesies' since he has been n this country, and, coming here for hi' ' health, his powers have been taxed by-the desire of congregat ions to hear him preach, and of others to hear him speak. On Friday he assisted, at the "All Saints' Day" services in Trinity Church, New York, and in discoursing of 'the reek. the Latin, the Lutheran and the Calvinistie Churche. he aad some thing to fay that was goo I of them all. The s.sine evening he at ended a re ception, of the clergy and laity of the Mt-lhodit Episcopal' Church, at which he warmly praised the labors o; John Wes ley. On Saturdav he was the guot ot the Century Club, where he spoke humorous! v of his experiences and warmlv of the kind ness and hospitalitv that had been ever v- where extended to him. The bro id church views of the Dean are fairly set forth by his- text at Trinity,, which was '"Many members of one body." A Witless Hoax. A dispatch from Thompson, New York,, slates that the terrible story reet-ntlv tele- graphed from that place in regard to the murder of a school mistress and the cuttinsr out of her tongue by tramps, on the border of Pennsylvania, in that vicinity, is ex tremely hnrd to verify, and is now believed to be without the slightest foundation. This story, it is said, was first put afloat last summer, and it has come to be regard ed as a smart joke among the village.loun aers, and is repeated by them with great assumed senousners to all credu 0113 si ranger.-'. 'The' hoax is a witless one. and dis creditable t the originators. . An Illinois Tragedy. Rock Islaxo,Ii.l;. Nov. 1,1878. Be tween f. ur and five o'clock jhis afternoon a tragic -shooting affair occurred at the little town of Milan, three miles southwest of this ei'y. The victim is Miss Mary Buf i'u 111. a you ug school teacher of preposses sing appeiir.iiice' She was on ht-r way hme from school when she was overtaken v Frank Sturgeon. a vdung man abo bout .twenty-five ears of age, who drew a revol ver and fired two shots, both taken effect in the abdomen, with probably fatal Jesuit. Sturgeon had been engaged to Miss KutTutn for some "months, but She seem to have dis . Girded him. ; 1 Substituting the ettle tor the Flax. The cultivation of the nettle as a fibrous plant which may yet take ihe place of" hemp and possibly of flax, has for the last few years attracted much attention in Ger many. A pamphlet recently published in Leipsic, by Madame Von Itoesler Lade, and an article from a leading German news paper, both bearing testimony to the value of the nettle as a substitute for hemp, have been received at the Department of State, from the American consnl at Bremen and referred to the agricultural department for such investigation as that department, may determine to give it. u L tm Wman suffrage has been discussed anew in the Vermont Legislature, the im mediate issue being whether women should be permitted to vote for school trustees. Judge Poland advocated the restriction of the privilege to unmarried women, because he deemed married women sufficiently represented by their husbands. The entire ! measure was voted down. TO THE DEMOCRATIC? 0XSERV A TIVE lARTY OF N OUT II CARO LIXA. The: State Executive Committee congratu lates , the Democratic-Conservative party of North Carolina upon the result of the recent Congressional elections at the North. These elections clearly indicate three things which are of consequence to us : First, that the peo ple of this country aie dissatisfied with the ; Republican, party and are unwilling for the ! Republican, leaders to afflict us longer with j their ruinous .measures and fraudulent prac- A . O J A I 'A. ll. . XT At 1 1 . A A. I'ces.. oeconu, inai ine aiionaisuonoimeei with popular favor, and, as a separate organi selves upon tbe country ; and lastly, that the stir of the Democratic party is still in the ascendant, and the people are looking to th:it party a. the only one capable of restoring i prosperity to the country, and able to admin ister the government on those Constitutional and just principles, which are essential alike , to the happiness of our citizens and to the perpetuity of our institutions. Thus in the -elections held in eight States the Republican? have lost twelve members of Congress; the Nationals have elected four ; and the Demo crats have elected twenty-three," and have gained seven. These facts demonstrate that the people in tend to invest ihe Democratic party with the full eonirol of the National Government. The Senate of the next Congress will be Democratic by a considerable majority, and it is only necessary for the Democrats of the South to remain steadfast in their allegiance to our or- , gairiization , and our triumph will be complete. 1 It is for us to determine whether the banner, ou which are. inscribed Reconciliation, Home Rule and Financial Reform, shali trail in the dust, or shall be borne on to victory. j Every, consideration of interest, 01 policy j and of patriotism then urges us to prepare ' imrae6iately for the approaching political I struggle. " j Be assured, fellow-eitizens,v that without I preparation, it will be impossible to achieve j success. - . j . . j Let us j ot by our apathy, our luke warni ngs and indifference postpone the accession to power of that party Which alone tas been ' able to check Republican corruption and to i arrest the progress of oer government towards i a centralized despotism. . j Let us be steadfast in our devotion to prin- ; ciple, true to Our organization and endeavor j by every means to discountenance those inde pendents and disorganizers who oppose our wor'hy standard-bearere freely and fainy chosen by the Democratic party in Convention assembled. In particular do we desire to' repeat what we have 60 often urged the necessity of thorough local organization. It is the -town slr'p committees who are charged with the most important of all party duties. To them is committed the duty of? supervising tbe election, and of devising means to bring out every Democratic Voter to the polls. They ought to meet frequently and advise.and take counsel together how best to promote the for tunes of that party, 011 whose success depends so largely the prosperity of themselves and of their posterity. In every township, in every neighborhood, there ought to be appointed -committee of active, efficient, and prudent k party men, who will undertake 10 see . inai every Democrat m tne precincx comes w me polls and" casts his ballot for our nomlneee. We therefore urge this upon the township conwnittees; and if in any township it is ne glected, we appeal to our Democratic friends there to send their ecuveyancts for all their neighbors who otherwise might not attend tbe polls. Let it be clearly understood in every locali ty that he who fails to vote for our iominee, gives half a vote to. the Republican party, and that the Conservative who casts his vote for an independent is tfking the suret means to break up and destroy the only party which can give relief to .our afflicted country. We waru our fellow-citizens that great ends can not be accomplished except at the cost of some inconvenience, and olten through the sacrifice of our personal preferences; and we appeal to every man who has the good of the people at heart to give a portion of one day to his country, and subordinating his individual preferences, cast his ballot for the nominee of the Conservative party.

It is a magazine of merit and we wish it much success. (Chronicle and Constitutionamst.) It richly deserves the cordial support of all our people. (Biblical Recorder.) It is printed in large, clear type and is a i t credit to the State. 1 (Greensboro Patriot.) It is ably edited, handsomely printed, and gives promise of being a very, very interesting publication. (Elizabeth Citt Economist.) Altogether creditable. Its contributors are first-class and its mechanical and typographical execution excellent. (Billpboro Recorder.) Its list of contributors is an an able one and if sustained, will ensure the permanent success of the enterprise. (Wilmington Post.) It is a first-class iteray magazine, and one that the people of this city should be proud of and patronize, as well as the people of the whole, state (Raleigh Observer.) It is needless to say we wish it success, and that we look forward with pride, aa well as pleasure, to the r -suit of the enterpise as one that will reflect honor upon the State. (Oxford Torchlight.) The typographical execution of the magazine is very fine, and in point of. appearance, con tents, and indeed in all respects It Is a publi cation which must commend itself to public. v J (Graham Gleaner.) ; It gives promise of being eminently worthy of public patronage. No commendation ;ou'rs would equal a simple statement of table of its contents, with the names of contributors, which we give as an evtdence or the worth or the periodical. (Farmer asd Mechanic.) Here we have a rich bill of fare from South era writers, catered by a Southern lady printed by Southern printers, on Southern paper. Ye who bewail the lack of Southern literature, and home-fostered talent, shall this enterprise live, and expand? (Wklson Advakce.) The magazine is well gotten up. The sub ject matter is varied and entertaining, while its typographical appearance is a model neatness and reflects the highest credit upon the exquisite taste and excellent judgment tnat suggested ana aireciea lis consummation. (Norfolk Virginian.) . This publication appeals to the people of South for a staple support. It richly merits ana we leei will receive it. We know of no Southern literary venture that bias exhibited so much merit, united with an evidence mauagemenr, uiai must win lor It & position the ranks of magazine literature and bold it. Petebsbtro, Index & Appeal.) The Socth-Atlajptic has this merit any of Its predeeesKors fn the same arena, over that it contents are solid, though not heavy, that no room appears to have been intended In it for productions of a trashy and frivolous character. While it continues to adhere to this rule, it will have every claim on Southern and general support, and we sincerely trust it will receive It. (Daxville News.) i nis is a most excellent publication a mag azine 01 mgn cnaracier, an nonor to the State, and a credit to the whole South.
