Council OF State,

The Council of State met in Raleigh
Saturday. We suppose the only business of
importance which came before it was
the appointment of successor to Judge

Po1NDExTER, of Forsythe, would be recon-
mended by Governor WORTH, and we have
no doubt Of his confirmation. ..s.arss

The accident at Angola, on the Lake
Shore Railway, was more serious than at
first reported. The rear car went over an
embankment of fifty feet, was set on fire,
and out of fifty passengers only two escap-
ed; the rest were burned to death, and all
that is left is q mass of blackened and
charred remains, without any means of as
pertaining their names.
The accident occurred at Big Sister
Bridge, one quarter of @ mile east of Ango-
Ia. One train with the unhurt passen gers
and few of the wounded arrived here
about $50 o'clock The balance of the
wounded will be here about II O'clock
Every preparation is being made to care
for their wants by the citizens of Buffalo.
Inquests are now being held at Angola on
the killed. A large number of the physi-
clans of Buffalo left on o'clock special

General Hancock.

We publish to-day the message of the
President calling to the attention of Con-
gross the order of General HANCOCK on ia
king command of the Fifth Military Dis
trict, with the order referred to. This mes
sage marks new feature in the history of
military governments, and is probably the
highest compliment which could have been
conferred upon the distinguished officer to
whom it refers We are curious to know
what disposition Congress will make of the
subject
The course OF General HANCOCK since
his arrival in New Orleans and the assump-
ton of the command of his Department
has been in marked contrast with that of
the other District Commanders, and stands
out in most enviabIe distinctness on this
very account Unlike most military men
who have been appointed to positions OF
high civil authority, he has added to his
brilliant record as Il soldier, profound
craftsmanship as a Governor. We can
give no better illustration of the temper of
General HANCoCK's administration than by
quoting from late number of the New
Orleans Picauune, giving the particulars of
the recent hdbedS corpus case in that city,
and that officers profound regard for the
sacredness of the writ
On Saturday night a father and son, known re-
spectively in this community by the names of ST.
mon M. Frank Walleche and Edmund Z. Walle-
che, who for several months past have been pro-
prietors of the sash and planning mills, called the
Mariposa Mills, on st. Joseph street, were arrest
ed by the police, under war;. Mt issued by Gov
ernor Flanders, who had received q requisition
for them from the Governor of the State of New
York, they being indicted in the City of New
York, it is alleged, with obtaining goods from
merchants there, about eighteen months ago, to
the amount of 500, 900, by false pretences.
Saturday night Judge Cotton, counsel for the
accused, sued out, before Judge Theard, writ of
hG6eGs corpus, returrable this morning at 10
o'clock 1t appears, however, that Gen. Hancock
learned late last evening Of the simple fact of the
issuance of the writ by court of competent iuris
dlction, and OF the Probability, under peculiar at
tendant circumstances, that the writ was not to be
respected. He at once went in person to tie Office
of Chief of Police, about 630 O'Clock, and told
Major Williamson that he had learned that writ
of hGbeas corpus had been issued and that owing
to some inegallty 1t was probable that it would
pot be obeyed. :" will hold You responsible in
this matter. Those prisoners must be produced
l believe you will produce them, but viii myself
take the necessary precaution that they be pro-
duced. Ihaye issued an order that the writ OF Aa-
0eas corpus is to be observed and shall be. am

only once in eighteen months feed

I dry them off never let them 60 dry
less than two months three is better If
it occurs in the summer, and ] always take
away the grain as soon as they are dry,
and sometimes before, If they are too much
inclined TO milk For two or three weeks
before calving keep them on spare but
laxative diet--if in winter early cut hay or
corn fodder and hay, with few roots but
no straw. After caivipg, give one pound
of Epson salts, and few hours after,
warm brau nlash-scalding the bran with
boiling water-commencing to feed little
bay in twelve hours from calving, and
gradually increasing to full feed after two
or or three days. Since l have adopted
this course have had no trouble with the

Little Haters.

Little Haters may be divided into twelve
principal classes l. People TO whom
you have lent money. who are too dishon-
est or too mean to pay it. e. People whom
you have helped, no: peeuniarily, but by a
timely word or letter, when they were OBJ
scure and poverty stricken, and who hate
you'when they have become prosperous,
because you knew them when they were IN
the mud. 3. People who imagine that the
women they know like you better than they
like them. 4. People who have written
little poems and whose poems you have re-
fused to purchase CT read, or to criticise !;
these are among The most implaoable ba-
teFs. 5. People whom you have detected
and exposed as arrant humbugs. g. Peo-
pie who are uneasily aware that your wife
dOs'nt like them. 7. People about whom
you have hazarded the unlucky verbal
blunder known as "good things"
The little hater never forgiyes = joke at
his expense 0. People with whom you
have refused to dine, knowing as you do
that their wine is bad, their melted butter
execrable, and that their guests are bOres.
Q. People who have failed 10 some very
little enterprise while you have succeeded
in some large undertaking Of an anagulous
nature. 10. People on whose toes you
have accidentally trodden. or gathers" Of
whose skirts (these are lady haters) you
have accidentally torn. H. People who
/ ara aware that THAR children are ff0lv or
abominable little nuisances. and know well
4 that you don't like them and so hate you.
II. People about whom you know too
much Stay, there shall be bakers do
zen. To the thirteenth and most malignant
category, class the people who don't
know you At tall. They hate with a ven
geance.

The OCTOBER ELECTIONS.

The result Of the recent elections in Penn
sylvauia, Ohio and Iowa is an unmissakable
and crushing condemnation of the policy of
the radical party. It shows that the people
are opposed 10 the radical doctrine of ex-
empting Government bonds from taxation,
opposed to the vindictive policy adopted
and practiced towards the people of the
South to the bsrbarous and disgusting doc.
trins Of negro equality, and the thousand
and one other ilioersl features Of the black
republican party.
One year ago, nnsylvaaia gave repub-
!icaa MAJ GRITTY of nearly 10000 This year
she elects Judg. Sharswood, democrat, BY
about 1900 majority
Last year the republican majority in Ohio
was a triae less than forty thousand. This
year, on the vote for Governor, it is reduced
to about two thous and, and the majority
against negro suffrage is from $4,000 to 40,
O0O The democrts have u majority in both
branches Of the Legislature, which will enable
them to elect U. s. Senator in place of
Ben Wade. This is more damaging to the
hopes aud feelings Of the radicals than the
election Of half dozen democratic Cover
nors. Ohio hs been regarded as more adj
vanced 10 ultra radicalism than any other
northern State, and hence the democratic
triumph there is the more significant Of the
sure and speedy overthrow Of tho Jacobin
party throughout the country. Her politi-
clans and her press have been the boldest
and most forward in demanding extreme
conditions for the political subjusation Of
the South, and the obliteration of state
sovereignty. Her Wades, Schencks, Ash.
legs, Garfslds and Chases have been the 10.
stigstors and leaders of most of the outrages
perpetrated by the radical party upon the
rights Of States and individuals and the re-
buke which they have received ut tho hands of
their constituency is 40 unmistakable evil
dence Of the popular desire for q more
liberal and conservative administration of
national affairs.
In Iowa the democracy have made large
and encouraging gains, which furnish ground
for hope that in the course of q few years
even Iowa may be wrssted from the hands
Of the Jacobins. We have gained several
members Of the Legislature, snd in some of
the strongest republican counties the demo-
crats have elected their county tickets.
There is yet hope Of redeemisg Iowa.
