Tho Eccming Journal, referring to tile rosolu-
tion passed by the Morgan County Republican
Convention, indorsing the course pursued by
Senators Logan and oGlosby on tho currency
qnostlon, aays that the resolution might we'll
read rs follows:
Etxoited, Tint the Republican State Convention Is
hereby rtpNesto to reruiao tho national platform Of
the Republican rary for tho sake Of ploixilIg tour
6cnatora and TO do Tint which would certainly divide
tho Nopnbltcan party aud cause fts dofcat 1t tha
November election.
Wo approhond that the journal has been
little too hasty in charaoterizing tho Morgan
County resolution. It looks very much as though
tho State Convention would paas tho came rcso-
luton, or something stronger, in which case the
journal would bo committed TO something. The
best way ia mover to hayo any intlexible opinions
or principles until aitor tito Convention.

SEWING MACHINE SALES IN 1873,

The Singer Sowing g-Machino Company, in q
circular, exhibit tho sales ct sowing-1nRchiuos
during the Your 1878. Thia tablo il made up
from sworn returns made by oach concern to
tho oWnors Of tho sevoral patents, Tho BaleB by
tho Howe Machine Company aro not giyon, as
that Company is not obliged to mako returns to
tho othors. Estimating the number sold by tho
Howe Company at 21,4 We have, as tho grand
result Of saloa for 1879, tho enormous number Of
GOO, 900 machines. These machines soil in tho
United States ut prices ranging from $50 to 800.
In England and On tho Continont tho same mr.
chlnos are sold at from e5 to :es, or from 1876 to
$40. Tic dilTerance which the American people
pay, amounting to nearly TOO per cent on tho
English prices, are IN e1tortion which Is suo-
cosafully maintained by combination Of Ameri-
can manufacturers, who still hold patonta On par
tioular improvements AB theao improvements
havo all run from fourteen to twonty-ono years,
aud have boon imnlouaoly profitable to tho
owners, Congress- should poronaptorily reject
any and every application for IN extoueion or
renewal Of any Of them for petty improve
ments upon an invention which has Yielded such
immonBe profits and which ia OF such universal
necessity rs tAo sowing-machino. Tho patent
Of the principle Of tho aewing-maehino expired
many years ago, having yioldod to it's inventor
several million dollars profit. Tho existing
patents belong to fow manufacturers, and arc
for " improvements comparatively petty In
themselves, and upon which tho patentoea haro
had from fourtoen to twenty years profits. Tito
royalties upon tho aalea Of 1878 a1one equal prob
ably 100000. Thoy refuse to allow any manu-
faoturer to use the patents uuleas thoro Ia cou-
tract to maintain the retail price Of tho ma
ch!nos at their present enormous figures.
Tho machines sold in England are made III this
country, exported, and arc sold ut large profits
ut tho prices wo laave stated. It has boon shown
thnt manufacturers can produce the aowing-ma-
chino itself and Holl 1t at good profit for 312*60.
10 this naust be added tho price OF the tablo OF
caae which, being made bymachinerY and by cast
ings, costs comparatively little. Adding an aver
age Of 60 for royalty on patonts, machine with
table, such as ls sold In this country for @70
costa less than 918. Tho other e52 arc divided
among tho "agonts," tho manufacturers, and

Capt. Julius W. Moore, citizen of
this place, die. early yesterday morn
ing mt the residences Of his bruther-in-
law, Col. +. i. Osborne, from All cpl
Icptic fit While Capt. Moore was
dressing, Col. Osborne heard him fall,
and, ha tening 10 his room. found him
convulscd with spasms. All that was
possible was done to relieve him, bnt
the spasms fnll.wcd each other in
rapid succession until they ended the
life Of the unfortunate gentleman.
Capt Moore was native of Will
lningtou, and was @ descendant of that
family Of Moores which is well known
as having been honorably connected
with the earlier history of the Cape
Fear section. Although he has been
in feeble health for several years,
caused by his having received a sun
stroke, still. his death was rather sud
den, as he had not seemed more unwell
than usual and had been up street the
afternoon previous. Capt. Moore, We
Judge, was about 10 years of age at
the time of his death.-CHartOtte o.
SerCer.
Capt. Moore was a noble scion of
his old and distinguished family, the
Moores having been among the very
earliest settlers on the Cape Fear, and
having. in each generation, held posi-
tions of trust and responsibility. De-
ceased was Captain in the Third
North Carolina Cavalry, the same reg
iment of which Col. aWaddell and
Col. Roger Moore, were successfully
Lieutenant Colonels, and Major G. w.
McClammy Major, and which did such
effective service during the war.
His many friends here will be dis.
tressed to learn of his death.

COUNTY ORGANIZATION

We desire to inquire what is being
done towards organization in New
Hanover county. Is the County Ex-
ecutive Committee attending to the
thorough organization of the Demo-
cratic Conservatives of New Hanover?
This is an important matter. Hun
dreds of votes are lost at every cleo
ton on account of the want of pro-
per organization.
We have noticed the fact that at
Rocky Point a meeting was called to
organize a club. We hope other
townships, of which we have not been
advised, are progressing. Surely our
people will not invite defeat through
neglect.
Let the members of the County Elk
ecutive Committee for each township
call the Democratic Conservative
voters together without waiting for
the action of the committee, and at
once organize a club in their respect
i've townships. This matter is too i'm
portant for further delay. Let us
work together, and for a purpose, and
victory is ours.

FULlEK ANDRUxTON,

We are glad to learn that the Demo-
cratic Conservatives of the Fifth Ju-
dicial District are rapidly recovering
from the decentralization which ex-
listed, and that Mr.. Fuller will receive
the full vote of the party. We ex-
pected as much, knowing those people
as we did, and knowing too their an
didate. An urbane christian gentle
man, n lawyer of eminence, and man
of fine abilities, he will adorn the
bench.
A friend in Arson, well posted in
the affairs of that district, writes as
follows: cat first, from peculiar cir
cumstances, Fuller's election was con-
sidcred uncertain even by the most
hopeful, but now feel safe in saying
he Will carry the fuU party strength
in all this portion of the District. A
great change has taken place and IS

our 2)CO12tc, urjthoW regard to race or

mean Do they mean that white and
negro children shall be educated III
separate schools Clearly not for
that would literally be to educate them
acih "rcSard TO race and color. "
| There cannot be a shadow Of doubt
that the tue moaning of these words
IS that the Fayetteville Convention de-
| sired the education of all classes in
schools open to all children without
regard to race Or color. If the plat
form Of the Fayetteville Convention
means anything, It means this and
nothing less.
But we are not left to what appears
in the platform alone, to ascertain the
the purpose of the Convention
that adopted it. This third resolu-
ton declaring that the Convention
desired tho "education OF !; l! classes Of
our people without regard to race or
color" had appended to it when
brought before tho convention a sem
tence declaring further that the conven-
ton did denOunce all efforts to establish
mixed schools as tending to cstrange
the two races. Why docs not that son
tence appear IN tie 21}0tOrm9 For
the simple reason that the courc3ati0n

dCfC0 UStricEt?l oct! La other words.
the convention, refusing to dcnounce
efforts to establish mixed schools,
boldly declared it's desire that all chill
dren, both white and negro, should be
educated without regard to race or
color! The matter is too plain for
argument. A statement Of facts is all
that is necessary.
And Mr.. Neill Mckay is the candi-
date Of this convention and upon this
platform. Are We unjust to him when
we hold him responsible for his 30
parlor and no kitchen declaration?
We think not.
Can any white man hesitate second |

A FKlG HTEUL PICTUKE!-LET
NORTH CAROLINA CONSIDER

H IA
The Charleston NeUs and Courier
says:
The area of land in nineteen of the
thirty-two counties of South Carolina
sold or forfeited for non-payment Of
taxes during the current year, is equal
to one-half of the area of the State of
Rhode Island, and is equal to the
area Of the European Grand Duchy of
Sake -Coburg-Go which has all the
paraphernalia of a court, and supports
a population of 153, ,S79. When the
returns come i'll from the remaining
thirteen counties in South Carolina, it
will doubtless be found that the area
of land sold or forfeited for taxes this
year and last year will largely exceed
the area of many of the European
Principalities and Duchies, and posi-
bly, equal the whole area of Rhode
Island or Delaware.
This area in the nineteen counties
amounts to 146 square miles sold for
State and county taxes, in the entire
State 537 square miles have been for
feited to the State at tax sales during
the current year-in all 437, 12O acres!
If the people of North Carolina
want to sec this same thing in their
State let them allow the negroes and
their handful of white allies to carry
the elections next month. This is
what nadicalism means and what it is
working for in every Southern State.
If the white people of North Carolina
by divisions and discords among
themselves, and by tolerating "inde-
pendent" candidates, lose political
control, they will deserve no better
fate than has overtaken poor South
Cornliuo
