CHIEF CLERKS. We learn that Col.

Capt. r. NJ. Furman, of the Citizen,
will be candidates before the Demo-
cratic caucus for re election to the
positions so admirably filled by them in
the last Legislature, to wit, that OF
Chief Clerk of the House, and the Sen
ate, respectively. We shall be glad if
they are chosen. There is fitting re-
cognition of the unceasing, and un-
compensated, labors of the Press for the
good of the party, by such appoint
ments. AS a member of the last House,
we can speak of the care, fidelity and
ability, with which Bro. Cameron full
filled his duties.

AN INTERESTING RELIC.-Prof. Kerr
owns an ugly little silver watch that
looks as if it might have come out of a
pawnbrokers shop with a So tag at
tached. Yet that watch is one of the
finest chronometers, rarely varies an
eighth of second in years, and ori-
ginally cost S5O0-though the Professor
paid less than half so much for it.
This silver turnip already has history.
1t has travelled all over North Caro-
lima but that is only local travelling.
1t once started for the North Pole, and
went as near to that mythical house
as any other watch ever went. In
short, it is the chronometer carried by
Elisha Kent Kane in his polar voyages,
which were timed by this identical
ticker. After DR.. Kane's death it fell
into the hands of Isaac j. Hayes, and
eventually was bought by Prof. Kerr,
who needs such an instrument on his
continual travels.

SMALL IIONESTIES. The man who
wishes to be honest small things as
we'll as in great, will take care to pay,
on the day they become due, all such
small accounts as his wash bill, his Ia
borers, his clerks, his dress makers
bills, and every other bill which he
knows constitutes large part, if not
the entire, income of the workman who
does his business. Many men, of high
degree, and holding pews high up in
the synagogue are constantly guilty of
small dishonesties. They think if
they keep theil bank account all square
and allow no notes to go to protest,
they are doing an honorable business,
even if they allow their employees,
and their help, to go unpaid for weeks,
perhaps months; saying mentally
ooh, it is only tritie Of SO, Cor $5, or
SIS, or $780, I'll Pay it before long"
And he goes along untroubled. Where
as the employee who very likely has
already been forced to go in debt for
every penny of those dollars, and who
has not the extensive credit of his or
her employer, becomes harrassed, loses
health and spirits, and goes steadily
down hill. He does not do as good
work as formerly, for he is worried
and respondent over small duns which
his employer would wave aside for
months. There is no honesty, or else
there is great thoughtlessness, in a
man who deliberately uses the money
belonging to his employees for Wien
they have earned it, it belongs to
them) to advance his own business.
He, in fact, steals the use, and the in.
terest Of his servants money. 1t is
time there was change in this res
pect.
