The New YORK TRIBUNE AND SPEAKER BANKS
Several journals in the interior state that the
New York Tribune chicks" Speaker Banks. The
"kick," it seems, was a recent paragraph in the
Tribune accusing Speaker Banks of bad advice
in the recent Fremont movement, by which, in
some measure, the defeat of Fremont was brought
about. Speaker Banks happened to be at the
Aston, in this city, at the time, aud the "kick"
was probably given by the Tribune clique, in
consequence Of the facility of reaching some
part Of his character with their political boot.
We profess 10 friendship of special charac
ter towards ex-Speaker Banks Of Massachusetts,
but we like to see fair play amongst the repub
lican rascals, as we used to call them. The de
feat of Fremont was brought about by the bad
advice, the treachery, and the folly of Seward
Weed, and the other corrupt politicians of that
clique more than by any other cause whatever
Another reason for that defeat was the laundering
fanaticism of Greeley and his associates; but the
kick" directed against Mr., Banks by the Tribune
arises, we rather think, from the independence
with which he selected the Corruption Investi-
eating Committee, which disclosed the rottenness
lne corruptoD, the ois ana Httie VulaDy anu Tue
rascality of the Seward and Weed clique of New
York rascality of such character as to render
necessary at the heel OF Congress the kicking"
out of three members and two editors from the
floor of the House. The Tribune, therefore, at
tempts to kick" ex-Speaker Banks because the
House of Representatives kicked Matteson, Ed
wards, Gilbert and their associates, Seward and
Weed, out Of Washington, out of decent society
and out OF all reputation.

as matter of curiosity, thinking that if the at
tacks were true the Opera must be bad enough
to be amusing. So in this case the advertisement
was given gratis, and was much more piquant
than the formal official announcement. Mr..

serves credit for pursuing his own course, re-

pleased with the article the credit SYSTEM just

credit too freely and as it would not afford any
pleasure to others placed in the same situation
l feel it my duty to them of the danger of 60

never spend your money until you have it in hand.
If you have to work sell cheaper, you can buy
cheaper. and five dollars saved out of your first
years work will amount to large sum, if properly
managed, when you fifty years old. Make the
calculation what it will be at compound interest !;
that is what all debtors pay for they must pay the
interest annually not get the use Of the money.
1t has Justly been said that if a man with common

drinks spirits, he will thrive in the world. So
keep it before the people-pay as you go.

Hawks History of North. Carolina.I

Our thanks are due to Messrs. E. j. Hale & Son,
Fayetteville, for the first volume of Hawks History
of North Carolina. We have looked through the
work, and find it to be all it was expected it would
be, in value and interest 1t is printed in excellent
style. We adopt the following notice Of the work,
which we find in the last Hillsborough Reco, der,
with the remark that the venerable Editor of that
paper is not in the habit of bestowing praise where
it is not well deserved:
"THE HISTORY OF NORTH CARoL1NA-We have had
much pleasure in glancing the first volume of
the History of North Carolina by the Rev. Francis
L. Hawks, d. D., of New York, kindly presented
to us by the publishers, Messrs E. j. Hale & Son,
Fayetteville. The volume contains two hundred and
ffty-four pages, handsomely printed with fair type
neatly done up. 1t embraces the period from 15S4
to 1891, and includes the five voyages made under
the charter granted by Queen Elizabeth to Sir Wal
ter Raleigh work of the kind before US
was greatly needed and the execution Of it could
not have fallen into better hands. Dr. Hawks as
the editor of the Fayetteville Argus correctly OBJ
in noticing this work, is of North Caro-
liza, devotely attached to his native State and Justly
proud of her past achievements we'll her present
stern integrity, lofty morals, and unsuled good
name. He therefore writes with his heart in his
subject; and in his extensive researches and acknOw
lodged ability the public have guarantee Of a far
better and more reliable History of North Carolina
than any that has ever yet seen the light.
Gov. Swain has been for many years actively engaged
in collecting materials for History of North Caro-.
lina and is now perfecting arrangements with gen.
temen in various parts Of the State to assist him in
collecting historical documents of local as we'll as
of general interest To all of which, we learn from
the Observer, free access has been rendered to DR..
Hawks.
1t is the intention of the publishers that agents
shall be employed to circulate the work in all parts
of the State, who will soon begin to deliver it to
subscribers. The agents already employed have been
successful in their labors that second edition is
now in press.'

ToBAcco-A curious thing has taken place in
Austria. 1t seems that the Hungarians since their
kingdom has been merged into Austria, and since
monopoly of tobacco has been introduced, have, out
of opposition, ceased to cultivate the weed prefer
ring to plant sugar beets instead. They will not
give their tobacco for arbitrarily determined
price. This opposition has reached such an extent
that Austria is obliged to 60 to foreign countries to
purchase tobacco of inferior description. I'm
