They have V compress there which gives an advantage in the matter of freights." r ; Gen. Vance, in his canvass for Congress in the 8th district, says he has been in Congress for; ten years and has never missed a vote. One out of a hundred J ! j In Burke, Caldwell and McDowell counties the two Liberal candidates are Sam L. Patterson a former Democrat flopped on account of rrohibition-f-and Sam Fleming flopped on account of, lievenne in ducements.' The test questioirput to both of them, who still call them selves Democrats, was: "Will you vote for Ransom for the U. S. Senate ?" One was speechless and the other openly said 'Nay." P , Senator Vance. A friend in Baltimore sends us a sviionsis of Senator Vauce's ad- dress before the Baltimore county fiiir. We refer to it to quote the following extract wherein the Sen ator so happily expresses the true inwardness ot the usual selections for speakers at agricultural fairs. Gentlemen: Why it 1b that agricul tural societies generally have lawyers a 1 1 politicians to address them is some thing I cannot exactly comprehend. On the supposition that they desire to be instructed in the mysteries of their art, i it would seem as ludicrous as to ask a plowboy to lecture on the relics of the . T T 11 11 1 J 1 stone age, or iay xiuuueu to vmuicnie civil service reform. Laughter. On the i theorv that you gentlemen de- lire to amuse yourselves by an exhibi tion of our utter ignorance of agricultu ral topics, I could indeed see soma little light, but even then, as in the present case, von run the risk of a disappoint ment, for I do not intend to touch go much as a corner of the end which en shrouds the arcana of your profession, No man here shall learn , from ; me the secret of growing beets, or even the beet time to cut elders, i nave generally f nd that the best way to raise any- t'...ag waa in another man's field, giving him all the work and all the glory. Liitit I remain content with the usual proof of the pudding. Laughter. But . iu the course of my life I have observed some things (always fiom the outside of the fence) of a politico-agricultural na ture, to which you are abundantly wel come. - ; Another extract will help to in crease our respect for the greatest country the sun has ever shown up on.. ' Hie our situation all in all and there is no land upon the earth that can com rf" ra with us in the production of ha Uiua food. No country subject to our control possesses such immeasurable fa cilities lor its production. This year (l'i: Z) we have grown the enormous s .ou' t cf 1,680,000 bushels of Indian r -n, " n0,000 bushels of wheat and : ;.( ) bushels of oats, and at least l.,' J. ( 0 bushels of rye, barley Bnd 1 u W t, r.jakinz together 8,000,000,- C J butihets of the cereals. This would :to ( r l read - bushels for each m- 1 ' " i ft.,e lobe. This estimate " , ) notice of rice, sugar and the yield of root crops, nor of the ' t rmimal culture, which are in lion. In order to realize -i of those productions it rytosny tliitt our wheat half of that of the , j in 1. 0 Rice is a favorite article of diet all the world over, and iu some of the older nations, particularly Chi na, it constitutes to a largo extent the food of the people. Iu China and the East Indies, where labor is heap, large qwantities of rice are raised, and these countries have, to a great extent, supplied the world's demand for that article. In 18C5-C0 the rice crop of the United States reached only ll,G0O,- 000 pounds, and but for the protec tion afforded by our tariff the in dustry in this country would have been crushed out by the competi tive advantages of cheap Mongo lian and Hindoo labor. As it is, the production has annually in creased, the crop of the yoar 1880- 81 being set down at 117,776,000 pounds. And, with certain insig nificant : exceptions, all the rice raised in this country is here con sumed. We also consume almost an equal quantity of foreign grown rice; but the curious fact presents itself that the price of rice is lower in this country than it would be had we to depend for our entire supply on the monopolistic caprices ot rice importers. Another assured fact is, that the existing duty on foreign rice is no niore than sufficient to keep down and regulate foreign competition. Take away the protective of two and a half cents duty per pound and our domestic industry would be at ouce reduced to insignificant pro portions. Thus we see that Mr. S. Mullen, iu presenting the claims of the rice industry to the Tariff Commission ou behalf of - the rice producers of Louisiana and the Rice and Produce Exchanges of New Orleans,' asked for an increase of half a cent per pound on import ed rice and one cent per pound on rice flour. In this connection Mr. Mullen stated that "the annually increased production of rice in Louisiana, and the very existence of the industry is solely due to the protection accorded by the tariff." The Lenoir county politicians are pjgparing for a warm canvass. t is thought that there are good grounds for hope of Democratic success. The Democratic nominee for the House is an untiring worker, and will make things lively for his opponent. And the old Republi can Sheriff has a foeman worthy of his steel. He, has usually run ahead of his ticket by several hun dred votes, getting Democratic support because he was a prompt lud efficient tax collector; but it is t hought that some of his Republican associates would not care if he were to get defeated, and his opponent is playing the game for all it is worth. Neither one of them could get Rev. J. C Price's endorsement on the , Prohibition question. The Republican Sheriff of Craven might learn a lesson by reviewing Sheriff Davis' tax books and seeing how closely he collects up. . i : Freight Discrimination Cotton una Business. ' ' (Charlotte Journal.) We have several times " aHudod to discrimination of - freights against Charlotte, and the disad vantages under which our Char lotte merchants ' labored. That such discriminations have existed, the cnanges m the late tanll ot rates admit, as it was published as a general increase ol rates to all points upon a regular per centage, Prior to this last change the freights from eastern points to Pineville, Fort Mill, and Rock Hill on first class as 5 centi less than to Charlotte, and the rate to Yorkville, S. C, 8 cents less than to Charlotte. The present tariff lias altered these rates and made tnem the same as Charlotte or more. This of itself admits the discrimination against Charlotte. We were shown yesterday by a Charlotte merchant a freight bill of goods lrom Richmond to Char lotte, 20 cents per hundred pounds, sixth class, and a ireight bill lor precisely the same goods, Charlotte to Yorkville, S. C, 28 cents per hundred. t It is this high local rate from Charlotte that our merchants com plnin of. As the center of the R. &. D. R. R.1 system, our city ought to have some advantages, At present the rates seem based upon the idea of Charlotte being merely a small local station the amount of business done apparent ly not being considered. Rendcrinjreood for good.ho is the most generous who begins; rendering evil for evil he is most uniust who begius. From Iliii" to Patriarch. KILL AEP. When a man begins to get" along in years he gradually chauges from being a king in his family to a pa triarch. He is more tender and kind to his offspring, and instead of ruling them, the first thing he knows they are ruling him. .My youngest children aud my grand children just run over me now, and it takes more than half my time to keep up with 'em, and find out where they are and what they are doing. Sometimes I get mad and rip up and around like I was going to do something desperate, but Mrs. Arp comes a-slipping along and begins to tell how they didn't mean any harm, and they are just like all other boys, and wants to know ill didn't do them sort of things when I was a boy. Well, that's a fact I did and I got lickin' for it, too. You see, I was one of the oldest boys, and they alwas catch it, but the youngest ones never get a lickin', for by the time he comes along the old man has mel- owed down and wants a pet. ' The older children have married - and gone, and the old folks feel sorter ike tliey nave been thrown on lor somebody no kin to 'em,and so they twine around those that are left ail the closer, but by and by they grow up, too, and leave them, and it's ntitul to see the good old couple bereft of their children and living alone in their glory. Then is the time that grandchildren find a wel- ome in the old family homestead, for, as Solomon saitli, the glory of an old man is his children. Then is the time that the little chaps of the' second and third generation ove to escape from their well-ruled lome and lor a while find refuge and freedom and frolic at grandpa's. A child without a grandpa and grandma can never have its share of happiness. I'm sorry for 'em. Jlessing on the good people,, the venerable grandparents of the laud. the people with good old honest ways and simple habits and limited desire, who indulge in no folly, who lanlter alter no Dig thing, but live along serene and covet nothing but the happiness ol their children and their children's children. I said to a good old mother not long ago:.' "Well,' I hear that Anna is to be married." I "Yes, sir," said she, smiling sorrowlully, "1 don't know what I will do. The last . daughter I've got is going to leave me. I've nursed her and petted her all ; her ite, and I kinder thought she as mine and would always bo mine, but she's run off arter a teller she's no kin to iu the" world, one who never did a thing for her but give her a ring and a book or two andra lttle French candy now and then, and it does look so Strange and unreasonable. I couldn't under stand it at all if--if I hadn't done tho same thing myself a long time ago,7? and she kept knitting away with a smile and tear upon her motherly face. . ; But I'm not going to slauder these little chaps that, keep us so busy looking alter them, lor there is no meanness in their niischiet, ,uul if they take liberties it is be cause we let 'em. Mrs. Art) savs they are just too sweet to live, and is always narrating some ol their smart sayings." Well they are mighty smart, for they know exact ly how to get everything and do everything they want, for they know how ,, to manage . her, and they know that she manages me and that settles it. A man is the head of a house about some things, and about some other things, he is only next to the head if he ain't tool. A man can pnnish his children, but it's always , advisable to make an -explanation in due time and let his wife know what he did it for, because, you see, they are her children, sure enough, aud she knows it and feels it. The pain and trouble, the nursing and night watching have all been hers. The washing and dressing, and mending and patching tioing up lingers and foes, and sympathizing with 7em in all their great big little troubles all falls to her while the father is tending to his farm, or his store, or his oihce, or his mends, or may be his billiard table. When a woman says. "This is my child," it carries more weight and more meaning than when' a man says it, and I've not got much respect for a law that will give a man the pre ference of ownership because he is a man. - ' - . - Wayne Republicans, I ,. The Republican party is ruled by "bosses." it is so m jNew xork, in Pennsylvania, in Virginia; and here in - North Carolina we have the Revenue bosses. And even in Wayne county bossisin rules. On Saturday last tho Republican Executive Committee of the county met here for the purpose of putting up candidates for this county. The committee, in true "boss fashion," put up Dr.; John 13. Person and John R. Smith for the Douse; J. Frank Dobsou for Register ' of Deeds; N. G. Holland, for Treas urer, and A. T. Grady, for Clerk of the Court. The commit tee decided not to offer any opposition to Mr. IVrtt'i vVo Senate, nor toD. A. OruntL.ua for SLeriff. Dr. Person : was present and addressed the committee. Mr. Smith, we learn, will decline. We shall have more to say of the candidates put up, hereafter. Messenger. Wanted Full Value. A few days ago a farmer on the line of the New York Central lost a cow by a collision with a train, and started immediately for the mana ger's oihce to effect a settlement. "I understand that she was thin and sick," said the manager, after the old man had explained his busi ness. "Makes no difference," replied the farmer doggedly. ,"She was a cow, and I want pay for her." "How much?" asked the mitnnger laconically. "Two hundred dollars!" returned the farmer. "Now look here," said tho mana ger kindly, "how much did the cow we'ghf" "About 400, Isuppose," answered the fanner. "And we will say that beef is worth ten cents a pound on the hoof." "It's worth a heap more than that on the cowcatcher I" retored the old man. "But we'll call it that; what then F - "That makes $40," said the manager quietly. "Shall I give you a check for $40.'' "I tell you I want $200," per sisted the old man. "But how do you make the differ ence T" inquired the manager polite ly. "I'm willing to pay lull Aralue, $40. How do you make tho $100?" "Well, sir," replied the old man, rising in wrath. "I want this dod burued railroad to understand that I'm going to have something for the good will of that cowl' 1 NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.
