Hardy, of Greene county, is in the city ani when pressed by a Journal reporter on yesterday for some news from his section he replied that the best news he could give was that not a man in his neighborhood had been indicted for any crime since the war. "Well, Mr. Hardy how do you account for the fact that the people in your neighborhood are more peaceable and quiet than elsewhere V" . r "Well, I . don't know; the Sheriff never comes to see us only for taxes or a juror. I can say another thing we havent got a drunkard in the neighbor hood." . , "' 'Vv,'1 'It's a prohibition i neighborhood, then, is it 5"" , ' i(if. "No. There is hardly a man up there but what takes his dram occasionally, but they don't get drunk.", 'if, ' "Have you any schools and churchesV "Oh yes; that is we have two as good schools at La Grange as you can Avid anywhere I live in the southwestern part of Greene, which is not far from La Grange. Our neighborhood school is nothing more than the common piny woods schools." ' ' , Fraternlzl n. ' It is good to see an old Henry Clay Whig and a good old Jeff ersonian-Cal- hourn-Jeff Davis, Democrat get to gether and discuss the issues of the day and tell what ought , to be done and what ought not to e done; we say it is good to hear them, and it is so long as they agree, but the moment one tells the other what brought on the greatest trouble this country ever had, one that completely revolutionized many cus toms and habits in the South, there is a damper thrown on the meeting that spoils the pleasure on one side of the house. On Monday last two of these charac ters met at the Cotton Exchange. Each had V been in a power' in his party in the ante-bellum days but were nevertheless friends. After a warm baud shaking the old Dem. began. "I tell you, ' speaking with emphasis, the farmer who fools with politics now fa worse than throwing away his- time. The question that I shall propound to myself in the future when these politi cians come around wanting office will be this: " Which one of you will repre sent my interestt" v 1 Old Whig "Ah, now you are talking sense; you go North and you will see. that men vote the ticket that protect their pockets." V v-"''r vf- :'(' Old Dem. "I tell you the farmers in this country have got to come to this; we must look out for our interest.. By-Stonder Why, : 1 thought ; you done well out your way, you elected farmers to the Legislature, but here in this great commercial centre they did wrong; instead of sending representa tive men of their business, they sent a lawyer and a farmer." Old Dem. Yes, and I tell you this great commercial centre as you call it and the whole financial policy of this Government are working to pull down the farmer ; and when you strike at the farmer you are striking at the root of everything else." Old Whig "Now just hold on and let me tell you where youstruok at the root of the farmer; when you voted for secession; you were one of "those men who were going to wipe up' the blood spilt by secession with a poqket hand kerchief.";? ':' ;,;' 'v i: ., Old Dem. "Well, I thought I was brave until the first skirmish I got into; I found then that I was a coward." . The scene closed with the laugh on the Whig's side. - ' .v .: City Council Proceedings. New Berne, N.

In other words he is and has been quite indisposed. .

He fell exhaust ed and was carried to Drs. Peacock & Anderson who -administered an emetio which soon brought him to his senses. 'Artis, we understand claims that Harper put strychine in the whiskey.

Scott & Co., was ' Alamance county last ... was arrested by the sheriff some ten miles from Graham and taken to the latter place nnder very ex asperating circumstances. The ar rest was made without any warrant and while lu custody he was treat ed very rudely. Arriving at Gra ham he at. puce telegraphed for his license; they wer forwarded to him. When arrainged before the magis trate next day the license were produced and the case was dis--missed upon the payment of cost, from which judgment he appealed. It is an outrage -which his firm will not submit to. The arrest was il legal, and was aggravated by the insolence and rudeness of the om cer. A letter from Chatham says all the water courses are up and great damage is apprehended. Farmers are looking bine over the late spring, and are making all sorts of direful predictions about this years' crops.- A thriving mer chant in town remarked that to day's sunshine was worth I50.0Q per hour to bis business. Charlotte Journal Observer: Miss Sarah I. Reed died at the residence of her brother,. Mr. H. K. Reed, in Pineville, at 12 o'clock last Sunday. Miss Reed waa an assistant teach- aw in 4-1... Iakiva DnnArtl o4 OlnAVTlllA of which her brother was principal and was a lady who was well-known and greatly admired throughout the country She was about 46 years of age. Her remains were interred yesterday at 3 o'clock, in the Sha ron churchyard. Eva, a little lour-year oittaaughterot Mr. jonn Crowell, fell into the fire yesterday morning and had her taee quite severely burned. Mr. M. D. L. Biggers, formerly surveyor in this county, had a rough experience in the city Sunday night. While pass ing by the Richmond & Danville freight depot he was met in the darkness by some unknown indi vidual who knocked him down and robbed him of his money, amount me to five or six dollars. The blow that felled him was struck over the left eye, and must have been made with a club or piece of iron, from the appearance of the wound. The skin was laid open to the scalp from, -the eye straight across to the ear, and all around the eye was a big splotch of black. The ex-coroner had no idea who his assailant was, and it was so dark he could not see whether he was white or black. Assaults and high way robberies are getting to be about as common in the future Lon don as they are in Chicago. in. The Democratic roosters need an air ing. They are entitled to have a good lusty crow this morning. The unter rifled Democracy carried Dubuque by 1,000 majority. That is rather more than a stra w it indicates a whirlwind. When Iowa gives such a vote, the Republicans may well disband. In Cincinnati, too, the Democrats elect nearly; all the officers by majorities ranging from 4,000 downwards, and thus assures ui that Ohio remains true to the colors. , The news from Miohigan is meagre, but as far as heard from the Democrats are-successful. The march of the Democratic cohorts is onward. They have victory in their grasp. The people have fallen into line beneath our colors and the Republican army of spoilsmen and plunderers have no hope in the contest of '84. The robbenbarons are overthrown and are repudiated by the voters. Baleigh News and Obser ver. .: ,.' --'-v .' COMMERCIAL. NEW BEBNE IIABKET.
