honest, capable and trustworthy m8n con-
trolled it's affairs. Yet such is the sum
expended last year by our city officials
Can there be any surprise that our bonds,
bearing six per cent. interest II gold,
should not command more than eventy
cents In the dollar in currency. There
can be no prosperity for State, county or
city, until extravaganza aud corruption In
their administrations shall cease.
It seems that Craven county has become
victim to the Ignorant and dishonest
Radicalism which governs it, and reaps its
reward in the following manner, as we learn
from the organ of Radicalism in Newbern,
the Times:
''Judge Thomas discharged the jury drawn for
attendance on the present term of the superior
Court, because they did not wish to take
county script it not being negotiable. Inc
Judge ordered a jury from the city who can serve
and board at home"
How rapidly and how we'll is Radicalism
doing its damning work of destruction.
Like the poisonous Upas, nothing fioul-
ishes under the influence of its deleterious
shade.

1t is singular how doctors differ
about even such matters of hygiene as
the propriety of eating meats. There
are not wanting those who will tell you
that man is not n carniverous animal,
and prove it by his teeth; who assert
that a vegetable diet is all-sufficienI,
and prove it by wonderful instances OF
health, vigor and longevity in persons
who never tasted flesh. Then here we
have Halls Journal Of Heath laying
down the law as follows: "Men may
live long and in health who never taste
meat, but they never can excel in any
thing which requires energy. The ma
tions which eat no meat, as to the mass
es, are always inefficient or degraded.
The hundreds of millions of Japan and
China have failed in the centuries of
the past in all that makes a nation or an
individual grand in conception or mag
nificent in accomplishment. They are
to-day what they were ages ago, and
they live mainly on rice and other veg
etables"

THE NAME OF FARRAGUT.-Ac CORE
spondent of the New York Evening
Post says: "The late Admiral Farragut
told me that his name was a corruption
of Ferrocuto, an old Majorca nobility
name. He found Countess Ferrocuto
in Paris, who treated him as cousin.
Farragut, or Ferracuto (sharp-
or, as Arisoto calls him, Ferrau, was
one of the heroes of medieval romance,
figuring with Roland the brave and Oil
vier, and, like them, changing his name
with the language or dialect in which il
was celebrated"
He was, in story, Saracen knight,
and among his other exploits he fought
with Rinaldo for the fair Angelica, who
escaped from both while they were
fighting, and, after losing his helmet and
vowing that he would thereafterwards
wear none but Orlando's Cor Roland's
own,) he accidentally found that morton
in the woods and lost his life in the en-.
deavor to keep it against its owner.

TIME FOR MATRIMoNY.-Among the
the ancient Germans, than whom a fl
ner race never existed, il was death for
any woman to marry before she was
twenty years old. BY the laws of Ly-
curgus the most special attention was
paid to the physical education, and no
delicate or sickly women were, on any
account, allowed to marry. DIR. john
stone, in his work of Economy of
HEALTH" says that matrimony should
not be contracted until the first year of
the fourth septennial on the part of the
lady nor before the last year of the same
in the case of the gentleman. In other
words, the female should be at least
twenty-one years of age, and the male
twenty-eight. The Doctor says there
should be a difference of seven years
between the sexes, at whatever period
of life the connection is contracted.
There is difference of seven years, not
actual duration of life in the two sexes,
but in the stamina of the constitution,
the symmetry of the form and Inca
ments of the face. In respect to early
marriage, SO far as it concerns the soft
err sex, for every year at which mar
riage is entered upon before the age of
twenty-one, there will be, on an aver
age, three years of permanent decay,
more or less of the corporal fabric.

A PUBLIC MAN WHOSE AMBITION Is
SATIsFIED.-Hon Schuyler Colfax, hav-
ing been named for the Presidency,
writes a letter to the journal which
proposed to do him that honor, the
Brooklin Union, as follows:
81 thank you for your good wishes in
my behalf, but i intend to withdraw
and this term shall close my public life,
absolutely. l will then have had
eighteen years of continuous life at
Washington-mostly on a stormy sea-
and my ambition is all gratified and sat
isfied. General Grant will doubtless be
renominated, and l think should be.
My articles and my speeches show my
faith in him and my regard for him !;
but the people will want some Eastern
or Southern Vice-President, and should
have one. / shall leave public life vol
UNFAIRLY, and without regret, and eX-
pect to go into active business. My
friends here all know of this determin-
alton, and l assure you it is no pre-
tense, but a reality, as you will see.
This will be the last campaign in which
/ shall participate, and feel happy at
the prospective release from the exac-
tons, cares, misrepresentation, and eX-
elements of political life, as the stu
dent who is about to graduate and go
forth from the walls in which he has
been for years, free from professors and
critics. When you think it over, you
will concede tits wise determination"

RICHEs.-Many man is rich without
money. Thousands of men with moth
ing in their pockets are rich. a man
born with a good heart and good limbs,
and pretty good head piece, is rich.
Good bones are better than gold, tough
muscles than silver, and nerves that
fash fire and carry energy to every func-
ton, are better than houses or land. Ii
is better than landed estates to have had
the right kind of father and mother.
Good breeds and bad breeds exist among
men as really as among herds and hors-
ses. Education may do much tocheck
the evil tendencies, or TO develop good
ones, but it is fine thing to inherit the
right proportion of faculties at start.
