The States in contention in 1884 are still
olasscd among the doubtful, and the ques-
ton with both parties is "Can we carry
New York, Indiana, New jersey
and Connecticut" But besides these
California, Illinois, Iowa, Michigan,
Minnesota, Nevada, New Hampshire and
Wisconsin, States that were Republican
in that year, are now Chased among
the doubtful. The total OF tie cleo.
tora votes OF these States is 81,
which. supposng that the Democrats
carry them, together with all the States
they had in 1881 would make a
grand total Of 500 OF the iOl votes that
make up the strength oil the Electoral
College. This is, perhaps, too much 10
hope for. but the fact that the Dom.
ocrats have oighty.onc additional votes
to contend for Is, to say the least,
that much more encouragement than
they had in 1884 They are sure
OF tho 1853 electoral votes OF the South,
this leaves iorly.cight votes TO DO gained,
which cannot be had without the vote Of
New York The thirty-six votes Of that
state added TO the fifteen OF Indiana will
make it, and three over; or the votes Of
New Jersey (ninc), Connecticut (Six)
added 10 New York will make IL, aud
three over. Can these States be car
ricd? The Democrats aud Democrat
ic managers answer Eyes" But in
dependent newspapers, like The Ncg
York Hddid, that have heartily Is
pouscd the Democratic cause, consider
New York doubtful. However, il aud
Connecticut aud Indiana are moro likely
to go for Cleveland than for Harrison, for
the same reason that California, Illinois,
Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota,
Nevada, New Hampshire and Wis.
consin are TO go for Harrison rather
than Cleveland. Thcy arc more
Democratic than Republican, and
their lcaningS are that way. They are
States In which The Democrats have more

publican in 1854, are classcd as doubtful

Special Correspondence Of The Sentinel.
GREENSBORO, March 5.-Our Superior
Court closed on Saturday night at II o'clock
! days the civil action of Stanton VS.. Hughes
had been the stock in trade for lawyers and
witnesses. The same case had run a three
days heat at some previous session. 1t is a
noteworthy case from the fact that it may
be taken for typical one. Ostensibly, it
was contest over about $4,000 worth of
property. Plaintiff sued to collect certain
notes given on deferred payments
ant countercharged that he had been deceiv-
ed in intrinsic value of property. Seven
or eight lawyers and about twenty live wit
nesses played havoc with the litigants. Late
on Saturday evening the jury went out on
the case and at II that night they stood 10
to 2. Mistrial. Already has the case con-
sumed good part of two sessions. If ex-
penses have Cleaned up" the available as
sets of the parties, the case will, in all prob
ability, be compromised. Otherwise anoth-
er contest.

in successful and profitable operation ever
since. Letters If incorporation have been
taken out, and the prospective stock is 200
shares, of which 80 have been taken. This
enterprise demonstrates the wisdom and

michael strog orr Coming.


Charles L. Andrews Michael Strogof'
Company will appear before the footlights
of Browns Opera House Saturday evening.
Tickets are now on sale at Browns Drug
Stor- Prices 500, rs and so cents. Of
this LAY tn. Detroit Free Press says:
There was large audience at the initial
peri rmance in this city of the spectacular
play Of michael Strogof." The play was
thoroughly enjoyed by the audience, and
the expression of their pleasure was at times
very decided and emphatic. The piece opens
in Moscow where young officer of the inn
perial messengers is intrusted with dis
patch to the Grand Duke, the commander
of Irkutsk, that city being besieged by the
Tartars. Strogof. who accepts this mis-
sion, is obliged to penetrate through the
country held by the Tertars. The incidents
which befall the messenger are such as only
theteeming fancy of Jules Verne can create.
His romances, however wild and improba-
BILE, are so filled with traits of human nature
mingled with the fanciful, that a seeming
realness pervades their pages. The same
feature prevails in the play, the lines of
which endow hero and heroine with stern
devotion to duty which all men instinctively
applaud. The company do their work ac-
ceptably and SO even was the work of the
various members that there is no need of
making any distinctions between them. The
play can be commended to those DESTROYS
os hearty enjoyment.

A Remarkable Family.

The Greensboro Patriot came across We
ry remarkable family in the mountains OF
Stokes last week. The head of the family
is gentleman of about fifty summers and
has six daughters, all grown and unmarried.
Each Of them owns horse, bride and sad
die and always ride horse back to preaching
by two, the father and mother bringing up
the rear, also on horseback. This is one OF
the families of ancient ideas who spin and
weave all their wearing apparel, while the
father tans the leather and manufactures
their own shoes. He says he knows nothing
of and wants to know nothing of the tariff,
but "confound the internal revenue"
