It will be recalled . that one of tbe Jthn-ich. tbe Wilson-Gorman tariff act was to do for tbe country, accord log to Republican politicians and press, was to effect tbe entire destruction of tbe wool-producing Interest by reason of its putting wool on the free list, and coincident with this, of coarse, the pri ces, Of all woolen goods were to go high er. In tbe light of these direful propbe cies it is interesting to note that the price of woo) bat advanced two -cents per pound since tbe new tariff act went into effect; that tbe importations of wool have increased enormously &nd that the prices of woolen goods have gone steadily down. The New York - Ilerald tells the whole story so tersely - and so well that we are constrained to copy from it 4 The demand far American raw wools under the sew tariff has so increased ... that the price has risen about two cents . per pound. During tbe eleven months ending with May last; 185,231,341 pounds of wool (eleven-twelfths of which were by the AVilson law free of duty) were imported to meet tbe new and large de mand of our expanding woolen industries.- This vast amount exceeded by f-s 130,000,000 pounds tbe imports of the corresponding period of the previous ? year. In nine months ending May last, ' ; 71,320,453 pounds of clothing wool were -1 imported. f 'ibe American" people will save on ." j their clothing and other woolen goods t tens or miuions oljdoiJars every year . itnrough the operations of the Wilson ' tariff.

While that bill is not nearly all that the Dem ocratie party wanted or had a right to .expect from a Democratic Congress, general business has received a tremen dous impulse under its full operation, and - manufacturers working under it are abundantly satisfied with it now that they have tried it.

THE HISTORIES OF THK REGI MENTS : In the Observer of a few days ago it i. was said that the people of North Car- - olina owe a debt of gratitude to Judge Walter Clark as the prime mover in ' hiving written the histories of the va . rious North Carolina regiments in the war. Many of these histories have : been written and published and they are very valuable, but tbe statement referred to was loo broad, since Judge Clark was not the prime mover in it. r i ve years ago j uage a. u. Avery pro posed that the Ladies' Memorial Asso ciation of Raleigh should invite repre sentatives of each regiment to deliver memorial addresses, weekly, comment orative of their respective regiments. .Failing to secure a favorable considera tion of this proposition, three years ago, ' on his motion, Capt. S. A. Ashe was ap pointed to do the work. Last fall Judge Avery made a motion, which v was adopted by the veterans at their - annual meeting, that Judge Clark, in cl. connection with his work ontheCdloni ai iiecoras. be requested to write some Confederate veteran of each regiment Vand induce him to prepare a history of bis command, and thus the work is being done. Gen, It. F. Hoik, Gen W. J, Green and Judge Avery were there : upon, on motion of Capt. W. H.-Day, ap appointed a committtee to memorialize , th Legislature to provide for printing the sketches as a volume of North Car olina Historical Records, and this is the history of the whole matter as the Ob- sebveb has it from a well-informed ; ' authority. The Raleigh special to this morning's - Obskrvkk states that Jhe president and a .committee of the board of directors of Vbe North Carolina Railroad is in Raleigh in conference with the Govern ,'or regarding a proposition for the ex tension of the lease of the road to the : Southern Railway Company. The Ois i sertkb is not at liberty to .tell all it .knows about the matter but it is in possession of the information that the . directors, or a majority of them, are in . favor of extending the lease for a period :of ninety-nine years upon a very impor . tint condition which the Southern "Railway is apt to accede to. - It will , mean a great deal ir the road is re-leased I' apon the terms which the directors ill - " lay down. " iForty-two miles of railroad were built tn-North Cara'ina last year and the railroad property or the State is as sessed for taxation at nearly a half mil Hon dollars more than it was the year before. Auditor Furman says that from the returns of real and personal property thus far -received at his office it is seen that the reduction in Values of real and personal property will 13 very 'little if any less than lest year, whereas reduction of 25 per cent, had been expected. These are 'cheerful statements and upon them may be based the hope that the State Treasury may. after all come out. all 'right at the end of the : biennial period. -, The blow bas fallen. The wise heads of the Griffin, Gaw silver convention dc- liberated long- and well about what should be done with Stephen G. Cleve land and John G.

'- Alluding-; to the - well- founded report telegraphed last night that President Cleveland seeks a third term, he observes: "I doubt it, even if Hampton did say it. " It may mean merely the efforts of some of his friends to commit him to the policy, which could not fail to be disastrous. The President, great patriot and statesman ' that he is, could not favor a third term, : which is opposed to all our Democratic and American ideas. The nominee for a third term w ould be overwhelmingly i snowed under, in North Carolina and elsewhere It is reported that Secretary Herbert has written a letter to Admiral Ktrk- land, alluding to a report that the lat ter, ;just before the Kiel celebration, congratulated tbe President o tbe French Kepublic on ms ttaure s) elec tion to the presidency. It is deemed a breach of official etiquette to do such a thing, and it is stated that tbe secre tary reminds the admiral of the fact but does not treat the report as established. As is well known the admiral is from Hillsboro. Jno.

' "Uba warden inervenca ana- pre vented' the furthee- prosecution of the attempt and a little later they performed the autopsy. .About "two months before Johnson was killed they experimented on another negro named Taylor. It was announced that the ar mature of the dynamo bnrned out, and that it was necessary to obtain current from the city lighting plant to complete the operation. Such was not the ease. The armature burned out, to be sure, but when they" applied the current the second lime, 53 minutes later, they ap plied it to a dead man. - Taylor came to himself sufficiently to move and talk and walk. Deadly drugs were administered to .him. and he was killed by those drugs and. as- I say, when the borrowed current was applied it was applied to a- corpse, made such by the administration of deadly drugs."
