A Compliment.

The Sentinel of Saturday last contains the
following:
"Is 1T TRUE I've have expressed the be-
lief, heretofore, that Ex-Gov. Holden was not
serving the Radical policy for naught. No
| one can think for a moment, that at heart
he sanctions Radical measures or the How
ard amendment, as fair, just and proper
measures for North Carolina. We have heard
| 1t several times limited that he has in pros
pect small pay as the result of his labors
| in the Radical cause. Since the election we
have heard it distinctly stated that he anti
| cipates position on the next Radical ticket
for the Presidency, as the candidate for Vice
President. If it be true that he expects such
thing, which we very much doubt we pre-
dict he will be as much disappointed as he
was about San Salvador"
Our contemporary is disposed to be compli-
mental. At least, we regard the above as
complimentary. Abraham Lincoln was
Radical, Andrew johnson is a Radical, Gen.
Grant is Radical, when compared with the
Sentinel and its friends. The Vice Presiden-
cy is an august position. We have no as
pirations, and could have no hopes in rela-
ton to it. 1t seems impossible for the Sen
tinel to attribute other than selfish motives to
its opponents. All ats friends are paragons
of unselfishness and public virtue. Nothing
like sefishness or ambition ever mingles with
their dreams. They are pure and indebted.
But Others are always on the hunt for office
They neither spouse nor oppose a pub
lie measure without subj themselves to
the imputation of being governed by corrupt
or selfish motives. This is strange, but true
How will our neighbors account for it9
By the way, sis it true" that our neigh
bors are looking to the revival of the Con-
federacy, with the hope that the Senior will
be Chaplain to the Senate, and that the Ju-
Nor will be nominated on the ticket for the
Vice Presidency in the next contest, in place
of Mr.. Stephens ais it true" that these
gentlemen are not serving the Confederate
policy for naught2"

PRECINCTS.

The Memphis Post is mistaken in assum-
ing that the Standard has any sympathy
with the copperhead Democratic party North,
or that it has proposed or desires to revive
the Democratic party of North Carolina
The old Wing and the old Democratic par
ties went to pieces with the rebellion. The
former was broken up by geographical issues,
and the organization of the latter was per-
verted and used to promote secession and in
volve the country in civil war. The Senior
Editor of this paper was once a Democrat,
and he still holds the great Democratic prin-
ciple of the right of the people to rule, but
he resisted the movement thus to pervert and
use the Democratic party, as Andrew John
son did; and he has been since, as he is now,
q National Union man.

Transportation of Cotton in Bond.


WASHINGTON, Oct. 23.-The Treasury De-
partment has just issued additional regula-
lions concerning the transportation of cotton
in bond, to The following effect:
1t having been represented that much hard
ship and inconvenience is entailed upon the
smaller planters and farmers in the interior
counties of the cotton producing districts,
| in consequence of the enforcement of recent
| regulations concerning the removal of cot
ton in bond, and that additional and much
needed facilities would be afforded by allow
ing bonds for securing the payment of the
tax upon delivery of the cotton at the point
of Discrimination, to be taken By the collec-
tor of the receiving district, instead of the
district whence the cotton is shipped, as pro-
vided by regulations, series 2, No. 5, issued
from this Office under dafe of July 31st, 1885,
The following additional regulations upon
the subject have been adopted for securing
the payment of the tax and as affording re-
lief sought for. Parties DESTROYS of bringing
cotton to seaports, or other places for ship
ment, from other districts, will be allowed to
do so upon executing and delivering to the
Collector OF the district, where such seaport
or place is situated, bond, with two or
more sufficient sureties, approved by the Col
lector receiving it, conditioned for the pay
ment of the tax upon all cotton for which
permits may be granted by the Assessor of
the district in which such cotton may be
grown.
This bond must be executed in a penal
| sum equal to double the amount of the tax
on the quantity of cotton intended to be re-
moved and in trGnsitu at any one time dur
ing its continuance, and assessors will be
careful not togrant further permits upon any
bond when the tax upon the quantity al
ready permitted amounts to one-haif the sum
named therein, until certificates fragment
of the tax on the whole, or a portion of the
cotton transported under former permits are
received from the receiving collector, when
additional permits may be granted, But, in
no case must the tax upon the quantity under
permit and unaecumulated for exceed one
half the penal sum of the bond.
Thus if the bond is given In a sum secur-
ing the tax upon 500 bales of4o0 pounds
each. When this limit reached no further
permit shall be granted except upon the re-
ceipt of the certificate of delivery and pay
ment as hereinafter provided. Immediately
upon the execution of this bond, the collec-
| tor to whom it is addressed, will transmit it,
(retaining copy thereof in this office,) to
the assessor of the district whence it is in
tended to remove the cotton, who will there
upon be authorized to grant permits for the
removal of the cotton, upon application be-
ing made by the principal or his agent Up
