it's power beyond the limits Of the
States for the prosperity and glory
of the United States and the gen
eral good OF humanity.
In order to accomplish these de-
sirable ends, it is Indispensable to
practice honesty and fair dealing
in all the various branches Of the
government. Energy, trugality,
honesty and strict integrity must
be demanded and practiced in all
the departments. There ought not
to be any nepotisms, favoritisms, or
classisms practiced or recognized
by our leaders, but intelligence,
honesty, patriotism and partylsm
ought to occupy permanent posi-
tons in the administration of pub
lie affairs.
1t is the duty of the head of the
government and of all his Cabinet
to give the country an honest, faith
full. economical administration upon
democratic principles with demo-
cratic instrumentalities as its
agents. His first duty is to the con-
stitution of the United States and
to the whole people. And in the
second place it's none the less his
duty to strengthen and preserve
the principles upon which he was
elected: and when he has done this
a duty no less binding and incum
bent rests upon him to take care of
the party that made him the head
of the people; not at the expense OF
the public service, or to the disad-
vantage of the country at large, but
when it can be done legitimately,
constitutionally without loss to the
public or injury to the government
he ought to throw the patronage
of the government into the hands
of the honest, capable, faithful
members Of the party that gave him
control of that patronage. Call it
spoils, call it plumber, call it what
you please, his political friends are
entitled to it, against all the world.
II mo patronage followed in the
wake OF the successful political
party, it would be entitled to none.
But as patronage, will of necessity
follow the successful party, as IN
terest follows principals, the believ-
ers in and workers for that party
are legitimately entitled to it.
Common sense, patriotism, reason,
justice, experience, business prin--
c;ples. custom all say so in tones
louder than thunder. Every thing
human and divine says SO, except
the Civil Service commission, mug
wumpism and Mr.. Cleveland, and
they will all say SO, if ever they get
in power again.

LEE AND GRANT.

Our esteemed neighbor, the ''TdK-
err favors a suggestion of the New
York "HeSald," to bury the remains
of Lee and Grant in the same tomb
and comes out in lengthy editorial
to that end.
We have always made it rule,
since the establishment of this paper.
to never have anything to do with
politics. whatever, but upon such a
question as this, we feel that we must
deviate from our rules. and say a
word IN opposition to such an absurd
thing,
The people of the South love the
name of Lee, and they do not love
Grant, If they say they do, they are
acting hypocritical. We, nor any
other man who loves the Southern
cause, desire to see the remains OF
our gallant commander removed and
placed in land where we know his
name is not honored. Let him rest
in peace beneath the soil that he SC
molly defended. We have no ides
that any such thing will be done, bu
we have had enough hypocrisy in the
South over the d cath Of Grant, 81

WGINLd.

We are greatly gratified and
proud of the stand old Virginia has
taken in self defence and in defence
Of the autonomy of the States.
Most of our politicians and leaders
since the war have been too timid
and cowardly to take so bold and
defiant stand in behalf Of State
sovereignty, the only feature in the
Federal Union which distinguishes
it from nation spelled with a
big n, and constitutes it coniding
of sovereign States. We are proud
of old Virginia, proud of her people,
proud to call her sister. She has
taken the truest and noblest stand
for the people and against despot-
ism and usurpation Of any State in
the Federal Union. She has de-
clared, that the Supreme Court OF
the United States is not infallible
and that it trampled the constitu
ton which it had sworn to obey
and defend under foot, when it
made it's decision in the coupon
case.
Nine tenths of the intelligent PEG
pie on this continent believe as
Virginia believes on this subject
And that decision must be re-
versed or explained by the PEG.
pie or by the court itself or the
ultimate sovereignty of the States.
is simply dream, a phantom, a
snare, a delusiOn.
North Carolina is as much inter
ested in the success of the Virginia
democracy against that damnable
heresy, consolidation, and Malone
ism, more damnable infiction
upon people if possible, as Vir-
ginia herselfis. Let each Virgins
ian to the manor born, arouse him
self, shake off whatever of lethargy
may still cling to him, and go in tc
the contest with a mind and will
to place the Old Dominion, where
she once stood, in the front ranks OF
States and Statesmen. God bless
Virginia! Never again let her flag
and honor fall into the hands of hel
traitor Malone, but rather commit
them both to the honest, able, gal
liant Lee, and his cohorts.

MR.Ep1ron-As thisIsan ageof
progress, and you DO not visit US iof-
ten. We wish to- tell you something
about our locality. We stand about
midway between Scotland Neck and
PALMYRA, in a fine healthy country.
with great facilities for Improvement,
good farming lands, we'll adapted to
the cultivation Of all kinds OF pro-
duce. We have a beautiful section,
fine scenery. we'll watered with ex-
cellent springs, one iron mineral, an
other Rock spring, superior in medl-
cinal properties to the celebrated
Penacea, ever pouring forth pure cool
water from large rock, in the midst
of a beautiful green vale between
two high romantic hills. We are
convenient to good water mills, with
fine fish ponds, and have easy access
to both railroad and water transport
tation. We dwell in land OF plen.
ty and peace, where corn, cotton ana
fruits grow luxuriantly. and milk,
honey and wines are abundant. The
men are all farmers, peaceable, hon.
est laborers, tilling their own 1arms'
and now have as fine growing crops
as can be found in Carolina. The
lands are being oRsned everywhere,
and everything seems moving 1or-
ward.
A few years ago, we had only an
old log school house, without win
dows, or seats, the door wide open,
and grounds all grown up in pine
shrubbery. There was no school, no
little children playing beneath the
green shady trees, now we have a
large, convenient and pleasant
school house, good desks, seats,
charts, wall>maps, blackboards and
writing implements, the newest and
most approved books, with all neces-
sary school apparatuses, and best of
all the children can now all read,
spell and write very we'll. Every
Sunday we see the girls and boys,
neatly dressed, with happy faces,
come into the Sabbath school to say
their lessons and join in songs of
praise to the Lamb of God. There is
a nice store being built at the X
Roads, soon to be filed with fine
millinery goods, where ladies can
buy new hats, order rich silks, fine
cashmeres, nice marinoes, and get
good calico. 1t is expected soon to
have erected good steam gin where
all the people can have their cotton
ginned close at home. then we will
Law the foundation for thriving lit
tie town, which we will call Center
vile, to unite Scotland Neck and
Palmyra into one grand body.

DEMOCRACY.

We have always advocated an
honest, economical administration
OF the government. The greatest
good to the largest number is and
has been the motto of the demo
cratic party. The largest freedom
to the individual citizen not incon-
sistent with order and peace is an
other principle Of the party. To
govern as little as possible, land that
little as cheaply as possible, con-
sistent with decency is one of the
cardinal doctrines of democracy.
The bed rock Of democracy is that
sovereign supreme power is deriv>
ed from and rests ultimately with
the people. 1t was with and in
them first, and resides with them
always except so much as they have
seen fit to transfer or delegate to
the governing ruling power for their
conveniences and benefit.
Another fundamental principle of
the party, is that the funds to de.
fray the expenses Of the govern
ment ought to be raised from the
Injuries and not from the necessa-
ries Of life, and with as little incon-
venience and cost to the people as
possible. The great boast of the
ante bellum democracy was, that
the people were happy, prosperous,
rich and powerful. The strength
OF the American people lay in the
hearts of the American people, and
the power Of the government con
sisted not in its Navy, Army and
Golfers full Of silver and gold, but in
the love the people had in their
hearts for the constitutional Union,
and the confidence they had in each
others honesty, integrity and pa
triotism. It was always the policy
of the democracy to shorten the
Federal arms and weaken the Fed.
eral power within the States, and
to lengthen it's arms and increase

M, me a. a forlper resident of Scotland
Neck to tell he people something
about, the .sLend Of Flowers" l
have been here only a few weeks, and
it is simply wonderful to note the
improve ments IN so short time.
You can hear the click of the saw
and the bang of the hammer from
day to day increasingly. Every train
brings car loads of people from the
North. who come to while away the
delightful winter hours here. Every
residence is converted into board
ing house, so as to meet the demand
for board and then all the guests can't
be Accommodated. Taking all the ad'
yancements of Orlando in considera-
ton flor it is of Orlando I am writing)
it is still deficient in one thing and
that is a first class hotel with accom-
modations for 1000 or 1900 guests.
This is needed above all things else
SO long as the present 'boom"
continues, which is likely to continue
as long as the Yankees have money
It is true that there are several hotels
in town, but none are sufficiently
large to accomm odate the number OF
guests that comes here to spend the
winter; and in consequence of this
fact some have to 60 farther south
to towns of less note. There Is an ar
tesian we'll In construction here, and
when finished will be an import ant
element to the promotion of the vel
fare and prosperity of the city. A
depth of nearly 500 feet has already
been reached, and it is hoped that
few feet more will carry it to new
er.ceasing supply of water. The op.
orator broke his drill off at depth
of over 400 feet not long since and
had considerable difficulty In extract.
ing it. He remarked that he would
be unable to proceed until he went
to China for it as it had dropped
through among the heather. Anoth-
er new feature is the fire company.
In testing the new fire engine, it was
found to be very powerful one,
forcing water from lake Eola over
the top of the Court House,a distance
over 100 feet. Florida is without q
doubt, with It's delightful climate,
the Italy of America and Orlando
should be the Metropolis. 1t is not
so exit emely hot here in summer.
The thermometer has not been higher
than SO degrees this year, while far
Their North it has been as high as
1889 & 104o. Florida is "The Place
(for me). Every one who comes here
and is willing to work will succeed
without doubt, 1t is my sincere
wish that Scotland Neck will ever
be prosperous, and that the noble
efforts which her citizens are ever
willing to put forth will always be
| crowned with success.

THE SENATOR'S.

We learn from Washington cor
respondent Of the Cincinnati En-.
suirer, that Senator Hampton, Sen
ator Gibson, Senator Black
burn, Senator German, and Sen
tor Brown, all Southern Sen
ators, are the great stumbling
blocks in the way of removing re-
publican officials and appointing
democrats. The writer goes into
specifications and names the midi
vidual cases in which these senators
have interfered and prevented the
removal of officials when the heads
of the departments and bureaus
had determined to remove republi-
cans and appoint democrats. 1t
is hard to believe this of some Of
these Senators. But we have been
deceived so many times by politi-
clans, and as they are the most in
tangible creatures in human shape,
it may be true. If not true that
correspondent ought to be locked up
in some dungeon, until his love for
light, truth and honesty, was strong
enough to cOnstrain him to ascer-
tain the truth of matters before he
sends it out to the world. If true
each one of these Senators ought
to resign and go home and cease to
misrepresent, insult and outrage an
honest constituency. And il they
will not resign the people ought to
hold meetings of Indignation, con-
denim their courses and demand
their resignation. The people have
submitted to the usurpations,
wrongs and insults of their repre-
sentatiyes, until it has come to pass
as soon as man is elected to an
Office, he begins to look, feel, and
act as though he was the master
and the people his servants. And
if a halt is not called and such men
taught lesson, it will not be long
before we will be their slaves, CHASE
ignoble slaves" and they our mas
tiers. No man is tit to be a Tilted
Senator from the South who
does not use his influence and posi-
ticn in an honorable way to turn
the rascals out. and put intelligent,
honest and faithful democrats in.
And what shall we say of the
man, claiming to be a democrat,
who uses both his influence and
position to keep the rascals int
Language is inadequate to express
our supreme contempt and hatred
Of such men. This matter ought to
be investigated by the constituents
Of these Senator'S, and if found true
the severest political punishment
and condemnation visited upon them
Ill the speediest way possible; if the
charge is not true, they ought to be
exOnerated form it. Tell us the
truth,-be candid. Raise the 20
litical curtain. Turn on the light.
Let truth, right and justice prevail,
though Senators fall. ..
