gossip anu chan that are blown about the
departments and hotels and upon the ave-
nue.. On one side it is asserted that the
president has had his eyes opened by the
election to the fact of which he was
not before aware, that his advisers
do not represent the majority element
IN the party; that the Republicans
In the states from which four of his seven
cabinet officers we're chosen revolted at the
party management and elected either
Democratic state tickets or a majority of
Democratic congressman. 1t is said that
the president will, after the beginning of
the new year, make two or three changes
IN his cabinet and reorganize on a basis
more favorable to the wishes of a majority
of the party. On the other hand these as
sertions are ridiculed as being on a par
with the rumors that were so thick a month
ago of Secretary Folger's intention to re-
sign. Whatever the presidents purpose
may be, there is speculation enough rife to
keep the correspondents in a continual
state of alarm. Last night again it was
asserted that Folger would resign after
his annual report had been made to con-
gress, and j. C. New was to get the place.
The night before it was asserted New
would resign, and Folger would remain.
There was talk about the possibility of Mr..
Brewster leaving the cabinet ever since
Bob, Ingersoll Undertook the amusing but
dirty task of convicting the department of
justice of jury fixing.
John c. New is not regarded here as a
very great man for the cabinet. He has
always rejoiced that he was the friend of
Tom Brady.

MA Cavalry, and part of his company

Fitzpatrick of the hanging of a man in
In Raleigh, n. g., but he justified the
act. lie stated that the man was con-
cealed in a house, fired at the General,
but missed him, and killed an orderly at
the site of Geu. Fitzpatrick; when he was
seized aud ordered by X. to be hung i'm
mediately. The man who hung Lieut..
Walsh was .Jerry .Suitabdch, of the 9th

spoke with several persons who were
present at the time, but they differ in de
tail. My brother-in-law' story comes
nearest to the account as published IN

The act was a cowardly one, and IN

Thanks, sir, for your renewal and for
the ~frankness with which you admit the
inhumanity of the act. Some struggling
soldiers may have fired from houses, but
Lieut.. Walsh did not. He sat upon hi
horse nj the middle of the main street OF
the town, and coolly emptied five barrels
of his pistols then wheeled his horse
and dashed out of town. He took the
wrong street, and came to a deep railway
cutting which compelled a sudden wheel
to the right, which caused his saddle to
turn which threw him headlong. The
pursuing Federals kept up a hot fire upon
him as he fled, and ifthey had killed him
on the spot no one could have blamed
them because, to kill in fair fight is the
rule Of wal. But to take a prisoner, and
hang him 10 cold blood, as Walsh was
hanged, required the character Of a
scoundrel Ike fitzpatrick.

Again we doff our hat to the cotton

direction. Since our article of last week,
the Newbern Journal brings a letter
from Mr.. Samuel I. Smith Formerly
president of the Merchants Bank in Char
lotte, and who married Miss Rosa Biddle,
of Kin,ton), stating that cotton stalks
viii soon furnish all the fibre necessary
to make cotton bagging, and in lieu of
the costly hemp, jute, etc., which are
now imported from India at immense
cost. Mr.. Smith writes to Walter II.
Cohen:
DEAR SIR: Enclosed please find 81,
amount bill Tor cotton stalk, which came
in good order, and for which we are
greatly obliged to you. We find that
the fibre Of the cotton stalk is much be-
ter than we expected. The advantages OF
this fibre are c~heapness, strength, quality,
tineness and durability, combining the
,t;eugth, length and tenacity OF fax or
hemp with the small cost ofcotton stalks
enclose you d small sample of the fibre
OF the cotton stalks sent BY you, from
which you will be able tn verify the
truth OF the above statement. In many
respects the fibre OF the cotton stalk Is
superior to tix, hemp or jute. 1t is
