now say to your readers something which | think
will be useful for them to know The subject
that will introduce is poison and its sovereign
remedy.
1t is now twenty years since | learned that
sweet oil would cure the bite of rattlesnake, not
knowing that it would cure any other poison.
Practice, observation and experience have taught
me that it will poison of any kind both in
man and beast | think no farmer should be
without bottle of it in his house The patient
must take spoonful internally and battle the
wound for a cure. To cure horse it requires
eight times as much as it does a man. Here let
me say of one of the most extreme cases of snake
bite in this neighborhood, eleven years ago this
summer, where the case had been over thirty hours
standing, aud the patient given up to die by the
doctors | heard of it, carried the oil anG gave
him one spoonful which created cure 1t is an
antidote for arsenic and strychnine. 1t will cure
bloat in cattle, caused by eating too freely
of fresh clover; it will cure the sting of bees, spi
ders, or any insects and it will also cure persons
who have been poisoned by a low running vine
growing in meadows, called ivy.

THE PROPOSED STAY LAW.

There is no light in which we can view this
measure without seeing in it unmtigated mischief
So far from remedying the evil Of hard times it
will greatly increase it by putting end to credit
and confidence between man and man. On the
working classes, whose earnings are small and paid
in sums at stipulated times, it will bear with great
severity. Property of all kinds will depreciate in
value, and note-shavers will reap abundant
harvest. The merchants of the State who have
not ready money, would have to purchase goods
on credit, and under the magn influence of the
Stay Law, the vendors of the goods would lay a
large additional charge to compensate them for
the risk they run, and the delay in payment they
iipeur. What next? The North Carolina mer-
.chant, when he returns with his purchases, must
lay on still additional cost in order to enable
him to make profit, and this profit will come out
of the pocket of the consumer. Again, merchants
having ready money wherewith to buy goods
would purchase them on better terms than their
neighbors not so fortunate but who, in ordinary
times, could command credit, and thus the former
would be able to drive he latter out of the market
competition would cease, aud nonopolies be estab-
lished But this is not all the mischief that will
ensuetrom this law. Whether truly or not, it
will be regarded prelude to general repuda-
ton, public and private, and stocks of the State
will consequently depreciate in value. Already
the bare prospect that such law will be passed is
prompting creditors to be urgent with their deb
tors For these reasons, therefore, briefly given,
we sincerely hope the House of Commons viii
give quietus to this mischievous measure.
The constitutionaty of such law is denied by
some of the best lawyers in the State, and pre-
vious was, years ago, pronounced by the
Supreme Court of this State to be unconstitutional
This question, however, we leave to the Courts
and lawyers for decision and discussion. Raleigh

The Stay Law passed the Senate but it thought
,yilI be rejected in the House.

AN INTERMIss1oN FOR COUGHING IN CHURCH
Es.-A correspondent of the New York Evening
Post, writes: L once spent Sunday at Lyons,
on my way to Italy attended the French Pro-
testant Church The form of worship is very
much like the Presbyterians; and the minister af-
ter preaehi1g about fifteen minutes, stopped rath-
err abruptly, pronounced word which took to
be "allez," and sat down Immediately the whole
congregation, which had hitherto been extremely
quiet and attentive, appeared to be seized with
fits of coughing and expectoration-some blew
their noses some took snuff. BY degrees the
noises ceased, and after interval of five minutes,
the minister resumed his discourse, and finished it
without further interruption. A curious custom
indeed.

CALLING A MINISTER.

esquire Skinner said Deacc~ Jones, you must
be aware that meeting has been warned to de-
eide on settling our candidate for the ministry;
and / called to inquire if he received your appro-
baton"
81 shall not vote for him." said Squire Skin
ner.
"Do you not think him sound in doctrine!'
asked the deacon
ENTIRELY orthodox" said the squire, sound to
the core"
'1s he not good speaker" asked the deacon.
"Never heard better" said the squire.
ais he not an agreeable man." inq uired Deacon
Jones.
Perfectly so in most respects, replied the
squire.
'Surely you have heard something against his
character" said the deacon.
"Not lisp" replied the squire.
esquire Skinner" said the deacon, eve ought
to be frank in matter of so much importance; if
you have any real objections to the settlement of
Mr. Stebbins hope you will tel me what they are"
Squire Skinner took his Longtime out of his
mouth, held it at some distance from him in his
left hand, looked straight down the garden walk
with great deal of earnestness, and replied idea
con Jones, will say to you for all, that l
will never vote for to be settled over this
ancient parish who toes an lrhen he ,cdlks"
Deacon Jones rose to 90. He saw the sGuire's
back up, and it was folly to argue with him.
But the deacon true Christian, and did not
wish to 60 without leaving more agreeable i'm
preston on the squire's mind, so he said in the
mildest manner possible esquire Skinner, hope
you will attend the meeting, tomorrow night, and
hear what our people have to say the subject.
Possibly you may change your views. Your opin-
ions entitled to much consideration. But |
am bound in all fairness to say Mr. Stebbens is so
popular with the people that L think there will be
a very large majority in his favor"
Squire Skinner rose in great excitement; his
face was flushed, lis left hand held his long-niue,
and his right arm raised like pump handle; he
looked as much like spread eagle as possible for
a man like him, when he exclaimed with the elo-
quence of Tom Stevens, deacon Samuel Jones,
let tell you, sir, that if you are so demented as
to elect pastor of this ancient parish who toes in
when he walks, Ill for one, sir, will abandon
the whole Christian church"
