GOLDEN TRUTHS FROM THE WHITE HOUSE
Serene as Summers day are those we'll
known and popular clothing men. Messrs
Cohn h Isaacs, No. l6 south street, Virginia
The world ways well with them. People appre
ciate their goods, approve of their prices; and
admire their style of doing business. At the
WHITE HOUSE CLOTHING STORE are seen no
broils nor contentious with swindled custo
iners returning moth-eateA and inferior goods
No evasive protestations, that 81 didn't sell it
to you and 81 didn'trecommend it. winding
up with ''your eyes were your market. sir :"
At the WHITE HOUSE old customers daily re-
turn bringing their friends with them, who
also become good customers. OF course, to
some natures it is very CALLING to see a new
establishment like the WHITE HOUSE open
right under their noses, Ss 1t were, and schieve
u marked and brilliant success; taking in the
very start a high position in public esteem.
and gaining a greater share of popular favor
and patronage than many houses that have
beed hammering away for years. However,
these old houses should learn TO grin and
bear it. Messrs. Cohn L. Isaacs do not allude
to these things in any spirit of pride or tri-
umph; they simply state facts for the public
good. They do not doubt that it is gall and
NORWOOD to their neighbors to have custo-
mers of many years standing leave them and
give their patronage to the WHITE House
CLOTHING STORE, but manifestation of temper
is in very bad taste. and really has bad effect.
Being manifestly untrue it disgusts all hear
ers. and sends customers by scores to the
WHITE HOUSE. Such is life. So mote it be.

TOO LATE.

The New York Herald, alluding
to the Third Term agitation, says:
The Hon. Alexander II. Stephens,
Of Georgia, improved in health,
but still the merest shadow Of man
physically, called the other day at
the White House and had pleasant
conference with the President
These two remarkable men ore said
to be in perfect accord upon the
proposition of q third term, both
being in favor of it, notwithstanding
the adverse results of the late elec'
tions.
Death has been deferred too late
for Mr.. Stephens reputation. What
blessing it would have been te
him to have been taken from the
political arena before he went tc
playing the sycophant to such q
| worm as Grant. The old fossil
doubtlessly expects a cabinet posi-
ton, and there is a chance of his
getting it, but his political glory
has vanished.

THE OLD DEBT.

The State debt is receiving con-
siderable attention at the hands Of
the Legislature. Already several
bills have been introduced in each
house. The News thus epitomizes
the bill of Mr.. Md. Tate, of Burke,
introduced in the House on Friday.
Mr.. Tate is chairman of the Com
mittee on Finance:
The bill is supplemental, with a
preamble. in which is recited the
reasons for not paying all the deb:
-destructi of the property upon
which the bonds were based, and
the reckless Legislation ard manages
ment Of finances at q time when me
taxpayers had no control in public
4tf1irs.
The bill provides for new State
debt to be called the consolidated
D,bt, and carries tax levy to pay
interest on it, and a reserve for
-iuking tund II then declaIcs all
bonds issued uuder legislation be-
fore the war AS of equal dignity,
and also includes the bonds issued
under the funding acts Of 1866 aud
1863 ~ they we're for interest on
the first class or old bonds. 1t then
provides that the Treasurer shall
issue the new bonds to the holders
Of this first class or old bonds at
333 per cent. on the principal, or
II other words, give one bond for
three old ones with past due inter.
est attached.
All other pretended bonds are
ignored.
1t then authorizes the North
Carolina Railroad Company to buy
the construction bonds, o-called,
and gives that company the right
also to buy the stock Of the State in
the company, and turns over all
right Ut the State to representation
by proxy or directors in the com>
pany to the private stockholders,
with a proSiso that the State may,
within ten years, purchase that in
teres' again by paying cost aud 6
per cent, interest.
| Another section provides for the
purchase. by the Public Treasurer,
Of the Western North Carolina
Railroad if the same can be done, at
The sale for eight hundred thousand
dollars, payable in State bonds,
with ten years to run, interest
guaranteed.
And itFrovides for the Governor
appointing five commissioners, with
the concurrence of the Senate, who
shall hold and operate and complete
the Western North Carolina Rail
road with convlcts aud the earnings

Hon. Ben. Hill, Of Georgia, made
a speech at Atlanta a few days
since, in which he uttered the fol>
lowing sensible language:
''If there is q white man who had
any doubts heretofore, he can have
none now. Every man ought to

defeated, and the people Of Western
North Carolina, who have been so
long deprived Of the immense bene>
frs and advantages Of railroad fs>
cilities, will have to suffer still long
er for want of those important vein
and arteries of trade and commerce;
which so greatly promote the pros
perity and wealth of the country.
The sum necessary to be raised
by the present General Assembly
to pay the past due interest on the
construction bonds, and thus save
the stock of the State from sale un'
der the decree of the United States
Circuit Court, will probably amount
to more than 5000, 600.
The Governor has q few words to
remark upon the subject of educa>
ton, and takes occasion TO make
the following allusion to the Civil
Rights, leaving the entire subject
of education to the consideration
of the Legislature.
II And at this time but two impedl-
Iments appear to a vigorous system
of Common Schools: First, our
!, comparative poverty as a people !;
and secondly, the so>called Civil
Rrights bill. The first impediment
or difficulty could be surmounted,
for out of their little, our people
would consider it sound economy rs
commendAb!e philanthropy, to spare
something for general education,
and our Common School system
would rise slowly but surely, as did
from 1910 to 1860, into great and
increasing usefulness. But a law
passed by Congress requiring toe
two races to b. mixed in the public
schools Of this State, would, in all
probability, result in closing these
schools in North Carolina. Indeed,
the mere pendency of such law
before Congress, with the prospect
of its passage, would 60 very Far to

HOW THE PARTIES STAND.

The " smoke Of the late political
contest having drifted away the
New York World presents a care
fully prepared estimate Of the com
position of the Forty-fourth Con>
gress. This estimate makes the
Senate stand: Republicans, Al ;
Democrats, %; Independents, 4 :;
Republican majority. 8. The House
conceding two disputed districts to
the Republicans and two to the OPP
position, stands Democrats, ITO
Independents, 4 ; Republicans, 1O1;
Opposition majority, 73. There
are seventeen Representatives yet
to be elected in the States of Cali
fornia, Connecticut, Mississippi and
New Hampshire. These States are
represented in the present Congress
by four Democrats and thirteen Re
publicans. If they should return
the same Representatives or others
of like political faith, the opposi'
ton would have 81 majority in tn.
House. But il view Of the grea
revolution, it is more than probable
that the Democrats will make gain:
in at least three States, and tina
the opposition majority will, in th'
end, fully touch 10. The Republ
can majority in the present Hous'
is about 100. This exhibit puts a
res: the absurd rumors put afoa
recently, that the Independent
would WELD the balance of power il
the Forsy-fourth Congress. Th
Democratic majority over all is ab
solute.

From all parts of the country,
says the Memphis Appeal, we have
the welcome intelligence Of revi-

the Democratic victories which have
infused into the minds of men
North as well as South confidence
that the change in public affairs
necessary to reinvigorate their
dropping energies and elevate their
hopes will be result of those vic.
tories, supplemented as they will
be by others to come in 1876.

little comfort to the friends of the
