CARY, n. c., November 2O.-Last night
at meeting of most of the citizens OF
Cary, in the chapel of the Academy, 1.-The
Cary Improvement Association was Or
ganized. The purpose of the Association
is to advertise the opportunities that Cary
affords for the establishment of various
manufacturing enterprises. The village
has peculiarly happy situation for such
work. On two railroads, with as good
shipping facilities as any town in the State,
within easy reach of the best timber-forests,
the tobacco belt and the cotton growing
counties, it is peculiarly we'll located to be-
come manufacturing place OF some i'm
portance. 1t is place of desirable resi-
dence, peculiarly healthful, and lacking
only in water-power; but its facilities for
transportation more than compensate for
that.
The Cary Improvement Association has
for It's purpose the advertising of these ad-
vantages with the view to attract capital
and skilled workmen. The purpose OF the
Association is to advertise the town. 1t
will publish detailed statement of the
opportunities of the place, and the Asso-
citation will entertain all visitors that may
come on prospecting trips. 1t will invite
men of capital from the North or from
other parts of this State to accept their
hospitality, and to consider the outlook for
various manufacturing enterprises.
Capt. H. P. Guess was elected Presi-
dent, and Mr.. A. D. Jones Secretary, and
very nearly all the men of property and OF
enterprise are members, and are enthusi-
astic. They will make an organized and
systematic effort to advertise the village
and its opportunities in the Northern
States.
While this is a perfectly natural move,
and surely proper one, it is believed to
De the first organization of the kind yet
effected in the State. 1t is too soon to
speculate about the result, but this is un-
deniably the proper way to take advantage
of the ''boom" which the State now has
the happiness to enioy. The Association
begs leave to ask The CHRONICLE to in
vite attention to its purpose.

JOHN BULLS RETREAT.

Preparations for the Grand Celebration
Event.
Special Correspondence Of the Chronicle.
NEW YORK, November 21.-You may
bet your life that New York will have
grand time of it next Monday. On the
25th of November, 1888, the British forces
evacuated New York, and on the 25th of
November, 1883, New York is preparing
to have what will be perhaps the greatest
holiday in the history OF the city. Busi-
ness will be suspended. There will be a
very long and very grand parade from
Central Park to the Battery. The city
has appropriated 100000, private persons
have subscribed about $4,000, and many
organizations, such as the Historical So
ciety, the military companies and the like
have made extensive preparations. One
hundred thousand dollars will not more
than foot the bills when the day is done.
One of the peculiar and noteworthy
features Of tho day will be grand steam
boat parade in the harbor. Five hundred
steamships, gaudily and patriotically ar
rayed, will move in procession around the
island, under the command of an impro-
vised commodore, and the gunboats of the
North Atlantic squadron will take an ap-
proprate part in the procession.
Speeches will be made at dozens OF
places, the Governors OF many States and
other great dignitaries will be here, Ward g
statue of Washington will be unveiled on
the steps of the Sub-Treasury, by Cover
nor Cleveland.
So far as am informed this is one of the
last of the long series OF centennials.
Surely, It ought to be the last, for we must
all now be fully aware of the fact that we
are one hundred years old and it will be
nanv. s. +.

pose OF folding and mailing documents to
the order Of Congressman
The prominent candidates for the Speak
ership are here and have established their
headquarters - at the hotels. It is fact
discreditable to this enlightened age, that
even the best men cannot be chosen to Of
flee unless they will put aside modesty and
seek it. But "yOu may bet your bottom
dollar" that old Nathaniel Macon did not
open headquarters at the hotels or else
where when he was elected Speaker. Such,
however, is the custom now-a-d days, and
men must be judged by the prevailing Gus
tom Of the time.
Can any fellow find out why an Inter-
nal Revenue Collector should travel in
cog. or under an alias? A recent in
stance of this kind has been brought to
my attention. A person has been recog-
nized here as the collector of an upper dis
trict in North Carolina-and not of the
district furthest West, who was seen to re-
cord his name on the National Hotel regis
ter as : }. e.. Smith, Danville." What has
he done that he travels under an alias ?
And this reminds me of little story of
the late John z. Hale, the witty Repnbli-
can Senator from New Hampshire. Some
parties in Oregon, about twenty-five years
ago, got up bogus war with the Indians,
and at its close came to Congress with a
claim to indemnify the State in the sum of
$40O, 900 for expenses incurred. The claim
was presented and urged in the Senate by
Mr.. Delazon Smith, the Senator from that
State, who, from the versatility of his tai
ents as preacher, a vender of razor straps
or something of that sort, and as politi-
clan, had acquired the paraphrased nick
name of ''Delusion y Smith. Mr.. Hale
denounced and opposed the claim, and
read from the letter of a gentleman in Or
egon who charged that it was fraudulent.
Mr.. Smith demanded the name of the Au-
thor, whom he branded as a calumniator.
Mr.. Hale replied that he knew the author
of the letter, but that it was no matter
about the name, $ 'sSmith,' he said, would
do as we'll as any. Mr.. Smith replied, ''Oh,
Smith is no name.' Mr. Hale MIR Pres
ident have been laboring under Delu-
sion all nv life?

Since this is true, and since the Northern
Democracy has more to ask of Democratic
administration than has the Southern
branch, why would it not be fair to
choose the next Democratic candidate from
Georgia or Te1 as2 Or must it be conceded
that the brains of the party are in
the NorthH AS it is, the South
gets nothing but the buzzard every
time. The nominations are kept within a
radius of five hundred miles Of New York
city, and all the favors to be asked will come
from the North. A few Offices would go to
the South in case of Democratic victory,
but everything else would remain in the
hands of the few who manipulate the ma
chinery of nominations. In the improbable
event of Democratic triumph in 1884 the
President will be Northern Democrat, the
Vice-president would be a Northern Demo-
crat, and the policy of the administration
would be in accordance with the ideas of
Northern Democrats The whirligig of time
has brought in its revenges. From being the
servants of the South, Northern Democrats
have come to be the masters.

THE STORY OF THE MODELS.

A curious sale took place at Washington
on Friday, at which some II 900 models were
sold at the Patent Office. Each and all of
these represent so many failures. Seventeen
thousand failures! The hopes of as many
thousands dashed to earth. Think of all the
pleasing speculations and airy dreams that
have been INDUCED in by the brain-weary
men who evolved these unhappy creations.
How bright life looked, how radiant the
futurel When the patent is once granted
dear wife, we shall be recompensed for all
the deprivations we have submitted to. You
shall be rewarded for all your patience and
encouragement Money, that we found so
very hard to get, will then come tum-
bling in upon us in an overwhelming
golden flood Privations will be supplanted
by luxury, and the low roof-tree that now
shelters us will give way to airy rooms that
shall let in great tides of the blessed sun
shine. We have been happy, it is true, but
soon we shall be doubly blest Alas! that
disappointment should come to so many
thousand waiting hearts. The fanoiful cas-
ties in Spain they so gaily builded faded
and sailed away, and their gilded walls
crumbled into dust in the golden summers
of the long ago. The tide of good fortune
that was to bear them away to the enchanted
isles never came, and the old house still
shelters them. Others-a few-drew prizes
from the wheel of fortune, and reaped
the golden harvest of wealth. But
here are the mute testimonials of
the failures of thousands, whose
happiest anticipations resolved into in
tangible nothingness, leaving empty the
hands that fashioned them. Some, perhaps
never ceased brooding over their disappoint-
ment, but others rose again and
met life and its trials with a manly fortitude
Let those who failed in this and whose once
cherished designs have been carted away as
so much useless rubbish, be comforted by the
thought that it is the rule to fail and the ex-
ception to succeed. To where one realizes
the anticipations of hope, ten thousand fall
far short. All that can be done is to make
the best of it all as it is; to bravely take up
the burden of life and bear it forward as best
we may. A cheerful resignation is heroic
sometimes, and it is but wisdom to recognize
the inevitable and to accept its DEGREES with
out repining.

THE momentous question of comforting the
Ii. D. degree upon Governor Ben. Butler
having been decided in the negative by the
overseers of Harvard an awful fear seizes
the Massachusetts mind. Will the Governor
attend commencement exercises at Cam
bridge as it is his bounden duty to do under
any circumstances; and if ne goes will he
conduct himself properly? When Mr. But
Ter chooses he can be very, very good, but he
also possesses an infinite capacity for being
"horrd," and may possibly wish to ''get
even" with Harvard.

Astronomy for june,

An extensive outburst of spots on the sun
occurred in the "a hours following May 81,
ga. NJ. -Four days previous, the sun APP
peared entirely clear of spots, the first time
for several years. At the hour mentioned
very few were visible. But at ga, NJ, June
l. group of thirty-five spots, one or two of
them pretty large, had formed near the CEN
ter of the solar disk. To-day there are sixty
spots i'll this group; three being large and
many Others quite prominent 1t will be
near the west edge of the sun about June 6,
and possibly reappear at the east edge
about the 10th. The sun arrives at the
summer solstice on the 21st, about 1:30 P. M,
when the summer season begins. This will
be the longest day of the year-fourteen
hours and fifty minutes In latitude forty
degrees north. and still longer further
north. until, at the pole, the day issix months
long.
Jupiter having led the van of evening stars
for several months, will soon disappear in
the approaching dazzle of the sun. On July
s. the planet will be exactly beyond the sun,
and would be occulted for about ten hours
by the great luminary of the day, were it
not already invisible by the pverpowering
light of the sun. After that, Jupiter will be
a morning star for six months. Mercury,
after brilliant display in May, is also in
visible on account of its nearness to the SUM-
Uranus occupies good position for observa-
tion-about five degrees west of Beta in
Virgo Its right ascension is eleven hours
and twenty-one minutes. and decination
nearly five degrees north. Venus, Mars,
Saturn and Neptune, are morning stars, and,
Of course, not likely to be observed by those
who sleep till ordinary getting-up time in
June. But those who would swap an hour
of sleep for star-gaZng may find Venus an
hour high near O'clock, little north of
east, About the middle of the month she is
about six degrees south of the seven stars.
Mars is about an hour nearly southwest of
Venus. In the morning of the 9Th Venus
and Neptune will be very near together On
the 10th, Venus and Saturn will be in con-
junction. w. DAWSON.

it was merely a friendly talk with friend.
