once did johnson return to Raleigh to
gaze upon the house where he was born
and that was after he had become a man
whose name was known to every nation
under tAe sun. They do say that An
drew ran away from home at an early
age, and we all know that he afterwards
became President Of the United States.
OF course this is no argu0ent in favol
of boys running away from home, but
isn't it just possible that Andrew, if he
hadn't run away, would have risen no
higher than TO be postmaster at Ralcighi
SUGAR CANE.
The other day was forcibly reminded
Of the good old song of
''Down in the cane brake.
Close by the mill,
lives Il little yaller gal.

MINERAL DEPOSITS.
Last week mineralogist showed me q
specimen of iron ore that was 9j per cent
pure iron. The richness Of this speci.
men can more fully be understood when
it is considered that blacksmith ha.
converted the ore into the purest iron al
his forge.
Within fifty miles of the lands or
which this iron is found lie rich veins o
coal. A railroad is opened to wfthis
twenty miles of the coal fields 1t seem:
that the day is not far distant when the
richness Of the mineral deposits and the
comparative cheapness with which they
can be manufactured, will make certain
parts of the Old North State rich beyond
present comprehension.
IMPROVED STOCK NEEDED.
More blooded stock is needed at the
South. There are too many run-out
played-out and sorry specimens of COWS
running ut large, and too many long,
nosed, racing and frolickiug hogs to be
found on every hand. The breed is
poor, poor, poor, and would be a mercy
if they were all to "rNn down a steer
place into the sea" We want some
good bloOded swine and kine-we need
them, and it seems almost criminal in a
man from the North to purchase and
keep such stock. l am glad that there
are some sections here where the stock
line is being drawn, and where the good
is rapidly supplanting the bad. May
the day be FASTENED is the earnest desire
of all who believe in improvement.
And yet, Notwithstanding these draw
backs, there is fine chance here for
Northern men who want to build HOMES,
for the land is cheap and at present there
is plenty oft, for the greedy land sharks
have not yet "got in their hooks a
few years from now will see many
changes, while the old experience will
be exemplifed that the one who took
hold in the beginning of the "new era of
prosperity" has prospercd and waxed

BY malaria, how shall we escape the
dread infeetionP is the question which
the denizens of fever and ague districts
ask themselves. The answer comes
from former sufferers who for wears has
escaped the visitations of the periodic
scourge, through the protecting infiu-
enee OF Hostetter's Stomach Bitters.
When the necessity for Using preventive
measures arises, use the means of pre.
yentlon at once. II regulates the liver
facilitates digestion and liberates IN (
puritles from the system, when such
exist, fly promoting healthful action of
the bowels and kidneys. Act early. In
all regions where miasmatie yapore

TO be provided with a safeguard. and
this Is true, though a soiourn In such
10 ialities is destined 90 be brief. No
one can afford TO breathe malaria fer a
short time. The Bitters is sovereign
specific for rheumatism, debility and
nervousness. Keep II on hand.

RIEL, the half-breed leader of the re-
cent insurrection in Manitoba, has been
found guilty of treason-felony and SEN
fenced to death. The jury made a
strong recommendation to mercy, and it
is by no means certain that it will be
thought good political policy to execute
him. His trial made it plain that he
was an enthusiast, but the defence of
insanity he repelled himself, and the
jury evidently gave it no weight,

The ravages of the cholera in Spain
have been frightful. The ofiicialreports
give the number Of deaths at 33, ,9S7, but
these are far below the mark, as the
means of making the records in some of
the provinces are very imperfect. The
disease has also made its appearance in
Marseilles and Southern France, where
there is ample time for 1t to repeat and
even surpass the record of last year be-
fore the cold weather comes. The es-
cape of Paris and London thus far is
quite remarkable: whether owing to
improved sanitary arrangements or to
some other cause, the spread of cholera
is less now than it used to be fifty years
ago. Their good fortune in escaping
the present epidemic is an encourage
ment to those who hold that rigid
quarantine affords this country an ample
protection against this scourge.

The first Farmers Institute held in
Wisconsin was pronounced success.
The audience was large and enthusi-
astic. The papers presented were able
and we'll received. The questions
asked and the replies given were to
the point, often spicy and always in
teresting. The profits of dairying and
wheat raising had their full share of
consideration in the brief discussion
the time allowed. "A variety of crops"
was advocated by Mrs. Barlow, Mr..
Guy and Mr.. Searls. in papers pre-
pared beforehand, at request of Mr..
Morrison. These papers were pre-
scented near the close of each day s
session, and unfortunately there could
be but very limited consideration of
their contents. Several papers on
practical subjects were crowded out
altog ether. A great many of the best
farmers in the st. CroiX Valley are in
terested in rearing and fattening stock
They were prepared to hear, and some
of them to answer questions, but THIS
too was not discussed. None or our
citizens, patrons of the late River
Falls cheese factory enterprise, or
fiasco take your choice of terms), had
anything to say in regard To which
side of the ledger the balance was.
and the profits were not presented in
so rOseate a hue as they were by Prof.
Henry one year ago. The papers OF
President Parker on the Education
of our Daughters" of Maj. Williams
ON the " Desirability Of Developing
Better Men and Women" and Prof.
King on " Why Do the Young Men
Leave the Farm" though of course
not agricultural in character as their
titles imply, relate to the deeper,
more important element of character.
While most of the papers presented,
and the discussions suggested, related
To improvement OF the soil and more
profitable system of hnsbandry, these
related to the improvement of our
sons and daughters, how to educate
them, and in what field of labor to
direct til m, that their lives may re-
suit i'll the highest kind of success.
Here let me suggest to Our Grange
Society, or any other society for that
matter, that very profitable hour
could be spent in listening to the
papers of President Parker and Prof.
King. The papers would be new to
most of our people and are of them
selves valuable

A Work of Great Magnitude.

I he task of bringing to the attention
of the people throughout the United
States the benefit to he derived from
general use of the National Garment
Cutter is a great one, but is in a fair
way of being accomplished under the
superior executive skill of Messrs.
Goldsberry, Doran 4 Nelson, the en-
ergetic and persevering gentlemen
who have the work in charge. Be-
sides handling this useful invention
themselves they are actively engaged
in establishing agencies for it's sale
throughout the Northwest. Though
they have many active agents in the
field in Wisconsin, Minnesota, Dakota,
Nebraska and Iowa, there is still "A
chance for others, and they desire to
engage the services of more canvas
sers who are willing to push che work
vigorously. The great success with.
which this system is meeting where
ever any attempt to introduce it has
been made enables it's proprietors to
offer rare inducements to straight
forward, active men and women to
engage in its Introduction. Parties
desiring to Investigate the merits of
tins invention with view of Secur-
ing an agency that will prove highly
remunerative in financial way
should call at the Central House at an
early day, as the office force now on
duty here will soon be transferred to
the South to work during the winter
season. The favor with which the
Cutter has been received appears to
sustain all that is claimed for it, and
if we may be permitted to judge from
the number sold in Pierce county we
should say that it meets with ready
sale. Those who have tried the inven-
ton are enthusiastic i'll its praise,
while many agents who are handling
it seem to have struck bonanza that
mak~s them happy. As this is sub
ject upon which enchanting rhyme
may very properly he introduced we
have readjusted our machine for the
production of Spring Poetry and
given the crank few turns with the
following result:
When all the other women sneer
Aud sewing circles fume and splutter;
When like a dowdy you appear
And husbands growl and lovers mutter
Because your basque sets just "too near"
Though other garments fare and lutter,
Then let me whisper in your ear
You'd better get Garment Cutter"
When Johnnie's pants are out at knee,
Aud in, maybe, in some location
Where such contraction should not be;
Whena sad lack of adaptation
Makes Jennie just fright to see
And limits all peregrination;
From such cares-now list unto me-
The Garment Cutters sure salvation.
AT this stage of the proceedings the
crank broke and the machine has been
laid up for repairs, but the grand work
of lessening, by the use of the National
Garment Cutter, the evils limited at,
goes steadily on, and ii you have not
already Investigated the merits of this
useful invention you should do so
while there is an opportunity.
