Col. F. A. Odds, the Raleigh cores
pendent ofthe Wilmington Messenger,
contradIcted such statement, saving !:

| Col. F. A. Olds, the Raleigh cores
pendent ofthe Wilmington Messenger,
contradicted such statement, saying !:
"The absurd sympathy for the hood
| lers, which interested parties sought
to seek and to foster, really amounts to
little Public opinion is quite fckle,
and people who are pretty steady IL
their ideas and remarks laugh at some
who week ago spoke of Gross and
White, the thieves" and who now al
lude to them as "Mr. Cross and Mr..
White" But the remainder of the
State must know that The number of
sympathizerz is very few and their talk
amounts to nothing at all.
We make a few extracts from a col
umn editorial in the Siatesville Lana-
marx, enc of the ablest Of our Safe
weeklies, whose cool headed, fair
minded and impartial editor is not
given to pre-judging or rushing
thoughtlessly into wild expressions Of
opinion on every vaporing subject.
Commenting upon the paragraphs
from the NeWs- O5sey5er above quoted,
the Landmark says:
$50 much as touching upon the mat
ter Of mawkish sentiment.
The people of Raleigh, as our friend
(the Nez0s- O6seyUe1) remarks, doubt
less have good deal of human nature.
There is more or less of it everywhere.
There is some here in Statesville. x
1t is that side Of human nature, how
ever, that makes the Landmark SICK.
1t can have good deal of sympathy
for the fellow who gets drunk over
night and is sorry Tor 1t the next morn
ing or even for the wretch who, in
sudden passion, Stays his fellowmen.
But from the cold, calculating. DELHI
crate, trusted, conhded-ln scoundrel
who robs a bank or fees with the
funds of a State, we turn with
loathing. If he speculates with money
entrusted to him, and loses it, he is
very guilty, but some sort Of excuse
can be patched up for him-if he
steals the money and runs away he is
purely and simply thief, with all that
the term implies. x We wish
the world were "free" alike .sof that
venality which corrupts the conscience
and that pity which corrupts JUSTICE
But what inducement is there for men
to be honest if the crime of White and
Cross is to be looked upon with any
degree of allowance? and what are we
to say to our boys in explanation Of the
fact that the poor devil who sells
pint of whiskey without license is hustled
off to the penitentiary, while the cold
blooded scoundrels who wreck a bank
are given the sheriff room in the coun-
ty prison and are spoken Of in the pub
lie press as 1.-The gentlemen?

A TALE OF WOE.-We won't give
names, but we must give away the
story Its too good to keep. Farmer
Nameless had been overpersuaded by
his wife to trade at a store that made
big promi es Of superior goods at less
than cost. The farmer didn't see how
it could be done, but, like good
man. Welded to his wife's whistles.
But they hadn't asked the opinion Of
the buggy horse, which turned out to
he more knowing than Balaam ass.
The farmer comes to town and drives
up Garnet stteet, and when he gets to
the cheap store hauls on the bit.
whoa - he saws whoa! whoa But
the more he whoas the more the horse
won't, but just carries him along and
pulls into the hitching post at f. c.
Davis. 'sOf all the contrary Critters"
avs the old man, as he goes into the
store to escape the laughing loafers.
But when he saw Davis goods and
prices he said: "Blamed If the old
horse didn't know more than me and
the old woman together. He can Just
go his own way next time if he only
brings me to Davis store.

The NEzss- Ob5cr0er laid itself liza
bic to criticism, and the GOLD LEAF
saw fit TO give it. For committing
this high ofense in the sight of the
Great Oracle OF the Press of North
Carolina, this office shall no longer
have the benefit Of the news observer
OF the worlds doings as recorded at
the end Of each day in the columns Of
its greatest(?) newspaper. We arc
sorry, but do not propose to stop pub
fishing the GOLD LEAF on that ac-
count and while our friends may en-
terrain grave apprehensions as to our
ability 70 ''get along without it," we
will make the effort and do the best
we can with the half hundred other
exchanges that some how or other
reach this Office unaffected bv the dis
continuance Of the News- Observer s
visits. Capt. Ashe and his paper may
hope to throttle the GoLD LEAF and
silence the voice OF the Press against
1t when its conduct is worthy of criti-
cisin or condemnation) by such intiu-
idation, but IN this we have no fears
whatever that it will be successful.
The NfUs Observer has not come 70

TOLD BY A TRAMP.

Wouldn't have our pants as gift.
"A very ragged tramp, to whom we
offered a pair OF pants, positively re-
fused to have them after seeing Davis
name on the waistband. Being pressed
tor his reason he explained
sYou see, boss, l was held up (or
should say, held DOWN by dawg
the other day; and all because of a
pair of E. G. Davis pants. When |
was given the pants l just drawed EN-
on over my rags, as my Saratogy was
full, thinkin' I'd struck a bonanza.
After day or two | was round solic-
ting help for dear friend. l had
walked SO long on an empty stumick
that it was about wore out, and my
solicitin' for my dear friend got to be
a matter of dead earnest, when, right
in the midst of a burst of e.oqueDCe,
the unfeelin' wretches turned a bull
dawg loose on me; which he al once
took seat on my pants, holding HIM
self down with his teeth. | made a
move to unseat him on the ground of
backbitlng and undue pressure to
secure his seat, but he stuck like
starved office seeker just elected TO
seat in Congress. We kept shakin'
for the pants, but it was a draw every
time There he hung, and the blamed
pants wouldn't rip, tare or split. Now,
| admire good cloth, but I've just no
use for pants like Davis that wont tare
when a bull -dawg, with a barb-wire
jaw, sets his teeth in 'em. While the
enemy was harrisin' my rear | saw the
old man maxim a flank movement
with loaded pitchfork. The dawg af
fectionotelv chung to me, offelin' large
inducements if I'd squat right there,
but | felt l wanted larger field. |
painted for freedom, and slipped out
of the legs Of them pants and went
West, leavin' the old man to cut loose
the dawg's teeth. That's why, boss,
you can't give me old clothes that has

Monday mornings mail brought us
a letter to which was attached clip
ping from an exchange (the Roxboro
Courier, we think), both Of which will
be found below. First we give the
newspaper extract. 1t reads as fol-
lows:
The Henderson GOLD LEAF copies
an article from the Greensboro No,tt
State in reference to the agreement
between Messrs. Cross and White and
Mr.. Busbee, and then publishes rasp-
ing editorial on the lVezo5 and o.
seyUer for its course in reference to the
matter. 1t says that when there seem
ed TO be no prospect of the bank
boodlers being aPprehended and
brought to justice, the representative
paper at the capital was loud in its
condemnation of their acts, but as
soon as their return it seems to regard
it as its special mission to manufacture
sentiment ia their behalf, and to de
ride and rid ,culc the Solicitor within
whose jurisdiction these men must
come to trial for declaring his intcn-
ton to do his duty and to maintain
the fair name OF the State, and to up

AMERICAN EXPLORERS.
What They Have Done and the Won.
ders They Have Learned.
Prof. G. G. Gardener.

Prot. G. G. Gardener.
Explorers from America are in every land
and on every sea. Already she has con-
tributed her quota of martyrs in the frozen
North, and has led the way to the torrid re-
gions of Africa. The people of Europe,
through Columbus, opened up a new world
for us; and we, through Stanley, have dis
covered new world i'll the old for them.
Much has been done on land, little on the
other three-quarters Of the earth's surface
But here America has laid the foundations
of a new science the geography of the sea.
Our explorers have mapped out the sur
face of the ocean and discovered the great
movements of the waters. They have
traced the southwark flow of the Arctic wa
ters to temper the climate of the torrid zone.
They have folio wed the northward flow OF
the heated waters of the equator and have
shown how they form those wonderful rivers
of warm water that flow, without walls,
through the colder waters of the sea till they
strike the western shores of Europe and
America, and how they render habitable
the almost arctic country of Great Britain
and Alaska. They have even followed
these warm currents farther ard shown how
they penetrate the Arctic ocean to lessea
the rigors of the Arctic cold Bravely but
vainly have they sought for that ignis fatuus
of explorers-the open polar sea-produced
by the action OF the warm waters from the
south.
American explorers have sounded the
depths of the ocean, and discovered noun
tafns and valleys beneath the waves. They
have found the great pleateaus on which
the cables rest that bring US into instanta-
neous communication with the rest of the
world They have SHOWN the probable ex-
istence Of vast submarine range of noun
tains, extending nearly the whole length of
the Pacific ocean-mountains so high that
their SUBMITS rise above the surface to
form islands and archipelagoes in, the Pa
cific And all this vast region Of the earth,
which, few years ago, was considered UNI
inhabitable on account of the great pressure,
they have discovered to be teeming with
life. From the depths Of the ocean they
have brought living things, whose lives
were spent under conditions of such pres
sure that the elastic force Of their own
bodies burst them open before they could be
brought to the surface; living creatures
whose self-uminous spots supplied them
with the light denied them in the deep abyss
from which they spra8g-abysses 50 deep
that the powerful RAYS CT the sun could only
feebly penetrate to illuminate or warm.
