A SPLENDID PUMP.-By reference to an
advertisement in another column, it will
be seen that Mr.. J. L. Kitchen, of Pitt
county, has obtained the exclusive right
to sell Balding's Patent Glass Submerged
Double-Acting Force Pump throughout
the States of North and South Carolina
He is now getting ready to manufacture
these pumps, and will furnish them to the
public in any section. The reputation
this pump has obtained over all Others is
sufficient evidence Of it's merit. The great
virtue in it is Shat it has no friction, and
if worked in we'll in which there is no
sand the packing will last fifteen years,
and it will never get out Of order Mr.. K.

We Live in Three Climates.

In this country we have at different seasons Of
the year, the temperature OF three climates. Our
Springs and Autumns have softness and mild
ness that belong only to the Temperate Zones (;
our Mid-summers are torrid, and our Mid-win-
tiers almost arctic in their frigidity. These
changes, involving q variation of from ninety to
one hundred degrees of Fahrenheit during the
year, are upon the whole conducive to health and
long life, but they tend to en- tail upon US some
distressing complaints which can only be escaped
by the exercise OF duo care and the use of pro-
per Gntidote when the system is pre-disposed to
contract them. The chief and most annoying o.
thoso disorders is dyspepsia, once supposed to
DO incurabIo, but which, since the introduction
of HO3TETrER'S STOMACH BITTERS, now
about twenty years ago, has proved to be a per-
feCtly m anagoa bic disease.
In the Spring and Fall, but more especially in
the Fall, the symptoms Of dyspepsia are gener-
ally aggravated. The profuse expenditure Of the
animal fluids under the burning sun of Summer,
is apt to leave the stomach weak and INDECENT
and incompetent to the task of perfect digestion.
1t requires tonic which will rouse it from it's
ethar9y and brace and invigOrate without irrita-
ting or intlaning il. This tonic has been pro-
vided IN the won deTful vegetable preparation
which has replaced in q great measure, all the
old palliatiVes formerly prescribed by physicians,
under the false idea that the disorder could not
be radically cured. The success OF HOSTEL
sia, acute or chronic, has ettectually exploded
this fallacy, and it ID now recommended az spe-
citic for indigestion by some OF tIo most eminent
members Ct the medical profession.

SERIOUS ACC1DENT--AN INFANT BURNED
TO DEATH.-We regret to learn that an
accident occurred ut Ellington on Satur-
day morning the Goth instant, which re-
suited n the death CT an infant, aged
about % months.
The mother, whose name We are IN
able to learn, was absent at work ana left
her child in charge Of another about 3
years of age. During her absence the
clothes Of the youngest took fire. A neigh
Dor passing heard the scream and ran into
the house, and endeavored to smother the
fire, but not until it had sustained serious
injury. Its face and body were terribly
burned, SO much SO, in fact, that both
eyes were closed, and the whole side Of
her face parched and her mouth SO badly
burned as to prevent her closing it. Her
sufferings were intense and death, which
seemed but the messenger of relief, came
in about two hours after the accident.
When will mothers learn to be more
careful?

From The Raleigh Sentine
Cape Fear Agricultural Fair.

Thursday last we spent in Wilmington
in attendance on the first annual Fair of
the Cape Fear Agricultural Association,
and grand affair, and joyous occasion it
was. Men and brethren met who had not
Wilderness, or at the charge at Chancel-
louisville, or the retreat from Gettysburg.
Men met who had not seen each other
since they parted at Appomattox, with full
eyes and heavy hearts. Right hearty was
the greeting, and the meeting of these re-
constructed farmers and friends, from
Gen. Lees army, formed m army Of farm
ers, their sons and daughters, met to cele-
brate the triumphs of peace instead of
those of war. The Fair was worthy of the
Cape Fear in the days of the Ashes,
Moores, Waddells, Hoopers, Harnetts,
Ounces, McLeans. Campbells, Hills, Lii
lingtons, Nixons, Walkers, Mears, Wrghts,
Cowans, Russells and their noble COM
peers, who made the Cape Fear what it is,
and why should it not have been worthy
OF these illustrious men We had their
grand children and great grand children
to make the Fair what it was, grand
success.
A great, great grand son of Gov. Sam.
Ashe, was assigned the duty of conducting
the corps editorial over the Fair Grounds
and showing them all the sights. Every
citizen of Wilmington. old and young,
seems to have had an assigned duty to per-
form, and SO graciously was it performed
that many visitors did not even find out
that they had been assigned for the par
ticular duty.

RECEIPTS AT THE FAIR--The receipts
for admission to the Fair last week
amounted to s., 239. AZ. This does not
include the sale of life membership tick
cts, Nor is it fair means of judging the
number in attendance, both life and annu-
al members being permitted to pass their
families in free of charge.
This is doing very we'll for our first FAIR
On the next occasion we confidently an
ticinate That the amount will be doubled.

Twenty and seven times were we asked
if the Cape Fear Fair did not beat the
State Fair ? Our answer was, that we
should not be expected to say So if it did,
ours (the State's) was metropolitan while
the Cape Fear was only provincial, and it
would not do for en- editor at the Capital
to admit that the Province had beaten the
metropolis.
In some respects the provincial beat the
metropolitan Fair; as whole the metro
poiitan beat the provincial. The provin-
cial excelled IL numbers and the zest and
zeal with which the ladies entered into it.
Numbers, Horses, Cattle, and pretty Girls
are prominent features in all Fairs, and
while the province beat US in the first, we
are entitled to the premium in the three
last. In the last named feature our excel
lence was SO slight however, that it is
hardly worth counting; certainly not to be
boosted of.

other of Mr.. Johnson's preposterOus
blunders in the early days Of his admin.
istration, was dragged from tie obscuriy
Of the turpcntine region, and made Pro-
visional Governor Of the State. The ne
groes have since sanctioned the choice OF
their ex-Nloscs BY clecting Holden Gov
crnor OF the reconstructed State; and
now he comes out with a lengthy edito-
rial in scrubby paper he publishes in
Raleigh, and dominates himself for Vice.
President on the ticket with General
Grant in 1872. The molesty ofthe prop
osition is positively amazing; tho only
wonder is that lie did not name himself
for the first Office. And it is but justice
to the tar-heclcd statesman 10 add, that
at present he would stand n pretty fair
chance for the nomination over the man
to whom he yields the preference, provided
the choice Of the Radicals were limited to
himself or Grant.

TIE VIRGINIA ELECTION.

The carpet .baggers have been put to
utter rout in the late Virginia election.
! Walker, the Conservative candidate for
Governor, has been elected by tho over
.wholming majority of fifty thousand. The
Walkcr-mcn will have a majority of sixty
in joint ballot in the Legislature, and two
more United States Senators will be added
to the gallant band who fight the battles
of Democracy in Congress, The Vir-
ginians who represent the intelligence and
wealth of the State are jubilant, and
throughout the South the result Of the
election has evoked thanksgiving. The
power of the tyrants is broken, The
turning tide will sweep into oblivion
carpet-baggerism, military satrapics,
creatures bred in the putridity Of Radi-
calism. In defiance of military power,
of Government patronage, of appeals to
negro ignorance, of every variety of trick
and species of fraud, Virginia, the in
ircnchcd camp of the carpet bagging hosts
has revolted from the rule of the invader
and dsrcs to be free. Soon all her sisters
in bonds will follow the example, till the
whole South will cease to be q province
rented out to the carpet-bagging horde.
The radical press bowls in malignant i'm
potency. Hear what Forncy says in his
Philadelphia Press: but all is not lost
in Virginia. Congress holds the key of
the citadel. The Rebel Democrats may
boast that they have carried their candi-
dates, but there is an ultimate remedy.
Colonel Walker and bis friends, who de-
clare they are still republicans, have as
sumed the responsibility. 1t is for them
to show that they do not intend t, destroy
the new Constitution after the manner of
Georgia and Maryland. Its for them to
show that they do not ask Virginia's re-
admission into the Union only to restore
her TO the men who have no higher mis-
sion than to pcrsecutc every citizen, white
and black, who supports the republican
party: Coming to Congress, as they will,
professions of republicanism on their lips,
We hope they willtakc such stand as will
prove that in the late election they were
not willing parties to plot to restore that
State to its Rebel masters" Thank
Heaven radicalism has become senile and
dotard. Its threats are empty boasts,
aud its VOWS of vengeance harmless. The
spirit of free Democracy, long depressed,
has risen again, and will soon STAY the
Giant Despair of republicanism with his
own club.
