KING OF AMERICA.

In 1775 when the people of
this country were beginning to
think of separating from Great
Britain, since they had always
been used to having a King,
much concern was expressed as
to who should be their King.
The author of The Crisis, a
powerful paper devoted to
American Independence, re-
ferred to that, saying-"You
ask, who shall be your King.
l will tell You who shall be
King in America: I would have
all the people to assemble in a
vast field and / would erect
there q great statue, statue o:
the Law, and the people shall
crown it; and the Law shall be
your King, the Law shall be
King in America. News &
Observer.

SOUNDING THE KEYNOTE"
That bright and newscy daily,

That bright and newscy daily,
the Durham Globe, says
The CAUCASIAN recently in
advocating the establishment
in the town Of Clinton of soap
and starch factories gave vent
to Il sentiment that is becoming
more and more reOrgan.zed
wherever the experiment of
manufactures is tried.
Our contemporary says that
"Auy merchant in Clinton could
make more money by taking
his capital ont Of the mercantile
business and starting such fac
tories. The manufacturer is the
man who makes the profit"
That is the keynote that the
business men in North Carolina
towns will sooner or late have
to re-echo. Gradually they are
having the fact burned into
them that there are too many
men engaged in merchandising
in North Carolina in proportion
to the population of the state,
We are an army of consumers,
without producing one thous-
andth part of the things we
need, and have to buy at Il dis
lance, With freight to be add

We must awake to the impor-
lance of making among US more
Of the articles thatare necessary
to our comfort and being. Our
grocers, our dry goods me-
chants, our shoe and hat men
and our business men generally
will sooner or later see the prac
tical wisdom Of not risking all
of their eggs in one basket. This
realization will not be reached
without cost. Many hard les.

abled to live respectfully, edu
cate his children, and lay some

MIR. COX'S "SUNSET."
He Won th.. Famous SObriquet
While an Editor.

In 1854, Hon. Samuel Sullivan
Cox (then plain Mr.. Cox was
editing the Colum bus Statesman
(Ohio). On the 10th Of May
that year the following article
appeared in his paper:--
What a. peculiar sunset was
that of last night9 How glcri-
Gus the storm, and how splendid
the setting Of the sun! We do
not remember ever to have seen
the like on our round globe.
The scene opened in the west
with a whole horizon full of
golden inter-penetrating luster,
which colored the foliage and
frightened every object in it's
rich dyes. The colors grew
deeper and richer, until the
golden 1uster was transfused in
to a storm-cloud, full of fierce
lightning, which leapad into
dazzling zizzags all around and
over the city. The wind arose
with fury, the slender shrubs
| and giant trees made obeisance
to It's majesty. Some even
snapped before its force. The
strawberry beds and grass plants
"turned up their whites" to see
Zephyrus march by. AS the
rain came and the pools formed
and the cutters hurried away,
thunder roared grandly, and the
fire bells caught the excitement
and rang with hearty chorus.
The south and east received the
copious showers, and the west
all at once frightened up IN
long, polished belt of azure
worthy IF a SicillIan sky.
Presently a cloud appeared in
the azure belt of the form Of q
castellated city. 1t became
more vivid, revealing strange
, forms of peerless fanes and ala
baster temples and glories rare
and grand in this mundane
sphere. 1t reminded us o.
: W ordsworth's splendid verse il
: his "Excursion"-
The appearance instantaneously disclosed
Was OF a mighty city, boldly say
A wilderness OF buildings, sinking far
! And self withdrawn into wondrOus depti
tl Far sinking into splendor without end.
But the city vanished only t.

e ified air.
