THE LIHISLATI BE.
The General Assembly of Sorth
Carolina is now io seaaioo. The
erfeetioa of lion. A. Leazar to the
speakership iu a deserved tribute
to M aceompliahed geDtlemao,able
parliamentarian and trne Demo

State are to be congratulated, not
oalj on the election of the speaker,
bat opoa having competent and
ebliftnf officials in all positions.
It U said that the organization ot
the Boose indicates the return of
Hoe. M. W. Ransom to the United
States Senate, and the creation oi
Carolina.
Taire are an unusually large
Bomber of contests before the

the relative merits of contestants,
' let the contests ought to be settled
at the ' earliest moment consistent
Vitk the Interests of the State and
the rights of individuals. Letexact
Jsstice be done, without regard to
party or section.
Reposing confidence iu the wis
lorn aad patriotism of the General
.Aaaessbly, we cannot doubt that
the present session will redound to
the welfare of citizens and the
honor of the State.

This paragraph is from the organ
of the Alliance, ft paper edited by
a trne son of North Carolina whose
talents aad energies are devoted to
the advancement of the vocation

material prosperity, bat is it not
jielaat to the farmers t Are the
f Oeea farmers in the American
Cpairesa ntteily helpless and
pAwerleas f If so, they are not like
far tiers who have preceded them in
the -halls of national legislation.
Jefferson, the great apostle of
liberty, was a farmer. Calhoun

philosopher, bnt he prided himself
attaint a farmer.
- Mart fanners have brains enongh

nation. Let it not be supposed
that the fifteen farmers iBOongress
will be without influence and
power; rather letns believe them
capable of grappling with great
qaestions of State, and impressing
their renins upon the legislation of
the country.
i i a great mistake to suppose

Censers, or that only farmers are

and few places are better sapplied
with milk, poaltry and eggs. This
is the largest fish market on the
Southern coast.

ous drives and walks. This is the
resting place of the Union soldiers
who fell in Eastern Carolina. It Is

about ODe mile. The Cemetery
road, when macadamized, will be
one ot the attractions of the city.
CEDAR GROYE CEMETERY

which surrounds it. This wall is
built of a species.ol coarse coquina,
and, so far as known, it is the only
wall of the kind in existence.

. Farmen.
Adam was a farmer while yet In
Paradise, and after his fall he was
commanded to earn his bread by
the sweat of his brow.
Job, the honest, upright and
obedient, was a farmer, and bis
stern endurance has passed into
proverbs.
Socrates was a farmer, and yet
wedded to his calling the glory of
his immortal philosophy ; 1

Shop-keeping is a eclenoe. - The
more 70a go shopping, the more It
will etrik you. Heaven knows
that all shop keepers scientific or
otherwise, need bare Job's patience
wiia tne nordes of "foolish nrgine"
who torture them with their vacil
lating sillinessi but if ther coald
only bottle up their Indignation, it
pays, there's no mistake, .about
that. "Meet 'em always with a
smile," gentlemen, as the Guides
to Married women" exhort the lat

though the crockery has gone to
smash, and the cook hah absoosded
and the chambermaid go! married.

A recent census of the illiterate
people in the various countries of
the world places the three Sclavic
States ot Boamania, Servia and
Ilussia, at the head ot thelist, with
about 80 per cent of the popula
tion unable to read and write. Ot
the Latin races. Spain heads the
list with 63 per cent., followed by
Italy with 48 per cent., France and
Belgium having about 15 per sent.
The illiterates in Hungary number
43 per cent., in Austria 39, and in
Ireland 21. In England we find
13 per cent, Holland 10 per cant.,
United States (white population) 8
per cent., and Scotland 7 per cent,
unable to road and write. In the
whole German Empire it is 1 per
cent.: in Sweden, Denmark, Ba
varia, Badec, . and Wuitenberg,
there is practically no one who
cannot read and write.
