How an Immense Whale Was Killed.

Correspondence Raleigh Is, CO Observer.
He said as he took his pipe out of his
teeth, "That whale was the rise of sixty
feet long, and was bulkier than any one
| had ever seen. They were on the
lookout for the annual visitation of the
school IF whales that plough these
waters. This one was discovered. 1t
was an old one, with sucking calf, and
was four miles off at sea. After con-
siderable maneuverlng they overlook
the calf and harpooned it, when the
old COW showed as much affection and
anxiety for the escape of its young as
ever did any animal out of the sea.
The little bull cali, with the harpoon in
him, was held by line. The old COW
would circle around it and use every
effort to get it to follow her. Now and
then he would make rapid squirt
through the water, dragging the boat
after him, but would soon stop from
pain and exhaustion. Still the mother
stuck to it, surrendering her own life
to save her baby, which though perhaps
only few weeks old, was thirty feet
loog. The COW was then harpooned
and killed, the calf having died and
sunk down into the Sea, and was carried
ashore where he grounded In eleven
foot water. Three feet or more of her
back was visible above tho surface,
which made her about fifteen feet
through. Her jaw-bones were twelve
feet long, and across her tail was twenty
feet. The bone out of her mouth sold
for upwards of 5000. There was over
500 gallons of oil obtained from her
tongue, and altogether she yielded
about $500 gallons. If she had been
properly "tried" out she would have
yielded more than 1000 gallons. Capt.
Willis thought that she must have
weighed 100000 pounds at least al
together she sold for $500. The
skeleton of this whale is still on the
sound side of the beach at Morehead.
A few days after the landing of the COW
the calf rose to the surface and washed
ashore. These are facts known to your
correspondent, rs wonderful as they
may seem to people who do not 60
down to the sea in ships.

A Thrilling Response to Lin

Complete and Overwhelming Answers to
Republican Traduoera and
Faliters
Road What our Candidate for Gov
crnor Said TO Fifty Thousand
People in 1869.

The gloomiest period Of the civil war
was during tho memorable summer Of
1862. 1t WINS then that thu confederate
forces were most exultant. Flushed
by repeated victories, tho robel lead.
ers ut Richmond contemplated thence
forward waging en- offensive warfare.
The repulso Of Gen. banks in the Shcnan-
doah valley and the sore discontinue of
Con. Mcclellan on the Peninsula en-
couraged tho enemy to abandon their
defensive policy, and they resolved to
remove the seat OF war TO tho "bord-
ors." The capitol of the nation was
threatened; and loyal heats every.
where shuddercd and grew faint. A
call for "more troops" was determined
ON. The president issued his celebrated
proclamation FOL" three hundred thous-
and more" The several states were
asked to respond to this call for help
Wisconsin was assigned her quota, and
nobly ana sho answer.
On the S1st Of July, 1862, ono OF tho
darkest moments of all the war, mn i'm.
menso mass meeting was held in
the vicinity of Milwaukee. No, less
than fifty thousand people were in at
tendance. The object of tho meeting
was TO encourage ennstments. Tho
crowd was 50 large that five or six
speakers stands Ind to be erected to
accommodate tho vast concourse OF
people. About ono of these stands, tho
young men were asked to congrega,c
to be addressed by Matt II. Carpenter
and James G. jenkins.
On that occasion, Mr.. Jenkins doliv
cred the following brilliant, soul.stirring
and patriotic speech. 1t is complete
and overwhelming rofutation
of the adroit insinuations and
cunning innucndoes Of republican pa.
pors rs to Mr.. Jenkins position during
the war. He spoke rs follows:
We have congrcgatcd here 70 dsy nom all sec.

Another Sea Serpent.

New York Herald.
Capt. j. +. Cox, of the ship Privateer,
arrived with his vessel in this port from
London on Monday. He tells a remark
able story of sea serpent, which, he
says, he encountered during his voyage
On August 8, he says, the weather was
fine and clear, and the ship was making
good speed under dazzling sun, hun
dred miles from Brest, off the coast of
France. About O'Clock in the after
noon, as he was walking the quarter
deck, looking to the windward, he saw
something black slowly lift ITSELF twenty
feet above the sea. To his profound
amazement he saw that it was fully five
feet in diameter and of indefinite length.
as portion of the body was necessarily
in the water. The captain knew that
there could be no delusion Tor it was
not more than 800 yards away, and its
snaky contortions caused a commotion
in the water as if school of whales
were fighting. But the captain felt
no fear until the immense mass began
moving toward the ship. Just at this
moment the serpent lifted its head aloft,
and with fascinating grace swung its
neck around for a moment over the
white caps and suddenly. with u loud
splash, disappeared. 1t Immediately
arose again, poised its vulture-like head
over the waves moment, then went
down in the white foam. This remark
able performance was repeated three
times, at intervals Of ten seconds. Then
the serpent turned completely around
and dashed away from the ship. In
conclusion, the captain says that he has
seen many kinds of fish and sea mon
sters, but never anything that could be
called a sea serpent. In this instance
he says he not only saw the outlines of
the serpent, but carefully noted its great
melancholy eyes. Its color was deep
black, and its shape like that of an
eel.

To Judge n Horses Age.

Eight to fourteen days after birth the
first middle nippers of the set of milk
teeth are cut; four to six weeks after
ward, the pair next TO them; and final
ly, after six or eight months, the last.
All these milk teeth have well-detned
body, neck and shoulder fang, and on
their front surfaces grooves, or burrows,
which disappear from the middle nip
rers at the end of one year; from the
next pair in two years, and from the
ncisive teeth, (cutters) in three years.
A. the age of the nppers become
loose and fall out; in their places APP
pear two permanent teeth with deep,
black cavities, and full, sharp edges
AT the age of the next pair fall out
AT years old the horse has his perma-
nent set of teeth.
The teeth grow in length as the horse
advances in years, but at the same time
the teeth are worn away by use about
one-twelfth of an inch each year, so that
the black cavities of the nippers below
disappear in the 9th year; those of the
next pair in the 9TH yeer; and those Of
the corner teeth on the Sth; also the
outer corner teeth CT the upper and
lower jaws just meet at years of age.
AT years old cups leave the two CEN
ter nippers above, and each Of the two
upper corner teeth have little sharp
protrusion Mt the extreme upper corner.
At the age of ten the cups disappear
from the adjoining teeth; at the age Of
IL the cups disappear from the corner
teeth above, and are only indicated by
brownish spots.
The oval form becomes broader and
changes, from the 18th to the 10th year,
more and more into triangular form,
and the teeth lose, finally, with the 10th
year, all regularity. There is nothing
remaining in tine teeth that carr after.
ward clearly snow the age Of the horse
or justify the most experienced exam
liner in giving positive opinion.
The tushes, or canine teeth, conical
in shape, with sharp point and curved,
are cut between the Sd and 4th year;
their points become more and more
rounded until the 9th year, and after
that more and more dull in the course
OF years, and lose, finally, all regular
shape. Mares have frequently no
tusks, or only very family indicated.

and carpet-baggers from tho south, and,
finding the power 10 squander the pub
lie moneys slipping from their grasp;
turned with the indignant, outraged
people and with sardonic yells sought 10
cover up their record and gain q
new foothold by joining in the cry. OF
"stop thief" The Hypocrisy of this
impotent flank movement was quickly
illustrated when the democrats gained
the majority in congress and sbfled the
cry of southern claims" by refusing
to recognize the validity of single
claim that was alleged to have grown
out of the civil war. The whole force
Of pseudo.reformers were forced 10 sit
ia their seats while such men as Bragg
scotched their falsehoods, and hurled
their lying predictions back
into their throals. The demo
Gratis have saved the country
hundreds of millions Of dollars in this
one matter alone. They are pledged
through their party leaders and
through their platforms, to stand like n
mountain bnttress, unblanched and I'M
yielding against the payment Of another
war claim.
The republican warcry Of the last
presidential campaign is hushed. The
democrats have amply proven the hal
lowness Of those hypocritical preten-
sions to economy, and the falsiiy Of
those generous predictions. Deprived
of that issue, the same dishonest and
blatant crowd has sought out for the
next campaign new issue of Estate
rights and southern ontrages." They are
trying, rs they tried before, to mould
the sentiment of the north against
doctrine which is inimical to the
nation, and which is falsely charged
TO DO fostered and advocated in tho
south. II has been proven and will be
again and again reiterated, that this
falFe and pornicious tenet was first
taught the country in the platforms and
addresses of the republican party; and
that it was abandoned when the lcgiti-
mate fruits Of that teaching began to
awaken the nation TO realizing sense
of its danger.
Tho republican issue of re has react
ed like boomerang. 1t has returned
TO plague lis inventors and tnunt them
with tncir dishonesty. Their present
campaign. as foreshadowing that of
1880, is founded upon phantasy Of
political legerdemain tortured into the
semblance Of realism. It's delusion,
dishonesty and demagoguery will be-
come more apparent as the ampaign
proceeds.

The Republican Candidate for Cover.

TINE RECORD I. v1DENC1a.

Astonishment prevailed in the radi-
cal camp last evening, when it became
known that the fact had been discov-
cred that VIM. L. Smith, tho republic
can candidate for governor, did not
take out his naturalization papers, and
renounco his allegiance to the British
crown until the year 1870. 1t appeared
almost past belief that this man, had
been allowed to hold repeated offices
under the state-among others, men,
Der of the legislature and state treasur-
Grand having been all the time q sub
iect Of Her Majesty, the Queen of Great
Britain. But such is the fact, tho ovi.
dence whereof is produced below.

ling to mako for his beloved country;
what bad men all democrats were for
sympathizing with the rebellion, and
pcddling all sorts Of political buncombo
Of this sort.
During the great war for tho MAIN
tenanco Of the Union, it will be remem-
bcred that Great Britain claimed to oc-
cupy neutral position, but as matter
Of fact, she sympathized most heartily
with the south. AS one of Victoria's
subjects, did the governor also occupy
position of neutrality in reference to
the great struggle for the Union?
Did the governor purposely
wait till he Jaw the sure
triumph of the union cause, before he
determined to declare his intention Of
becoming citizen of the United States?
Did his oxccllency adhere to his ale
glance to the British government as q
protection against the draft?
Unless the records OF the supreme
court do the governor gross injustice,
he was no more eligible to the numer-
GUS state offices he mad held prior to
1870, than Yakoob Khan: and it looks
very much as if Mr.. Smith was willing
to thrust himself into the fat Offices OF
tho state, which he was under no legal
obligation TO serve and defend in war.
Tho record of the governor is a most
Notifying one and out of sympathy We
drop the matter for the present, having
no heart to further pursue the humiliat-
