GrS's HUI. August IS. Our section Of
tbe State has been blessed with most cx-
collent seasons for the growth and ma
turitv of all the hard crops, and wherever
the crops Of corn, tobacco, peanuts, and
cotton have been properly cultivated the
promise Of a bOuntlfIl harvest was never
better. The crop Of spring oats, owing to
late seeding, was a failure, but those VINO
seeded crops Of winter oats last fall raised
very heavy crops. Ihearea OF land seeded
to wheat was small and the yield was very
unsatisfactory. The crop IS all threshed
and will not exceed an average OF SIX
bushels per acre. Pastures are very green
and the Cattle are looking sleek and lazy.
PEOPLE ENJOYING THEMSELVES.
This is the season for plc-pics and pro-

bravery. Then add to these traits IA
tience, steady work, Godlness or God
likeness, which is its equivalent, and to
all these add knowledge in order that we
NAV take broad views Of things and not
be contracted and become fanatical.
The speaker in his successful endeavor
to show or establish the fact that the
highest type of character must be built
upon the word of God, cited seveeal in
stances in the bible to prove this-such
as Daniel, Joseph and MOses-in this
connection saying that no one could have
such traits Of character as these men had
without being a GOd-fearing and a God
! loving man or woman.
The reverend gentleman here took up
| the subject of calling and election, say
| ing that some were called and elected of
God, and that these in other words were
predestinated into holiness, and that
onlv the called and elected could be
saved, stating that the question with
us then should be, are We called and
! elected by God, and then to the question
that would suggest itself how are we 10
determine whether we have been or not"
| Answer it by putting ourselves to this
test. Is our character built upon faith,
love, hope, charity and all other traits
which our individual minds show US
! ought to be possessed by a true christian.
The speaker stated that this faith should
be used as the foundation stone while
love would be the capstone. Mr.. Dar-
nall handled his subject well, delivering
this sermon in his usual impressive style.

HIS SERMON.
Col. Bill Yates Gives Short Review OF
the Sermon by Rev. Darnall.

Quite large audience assembled at the
Presbyterian church yesterday at II a
M, to hear the Rev Mr.. Darnall.
The choir composed of some of the
best talent in the city seemed to excel
themselves, rendering some very fine
music.
The speaker took his text from the
10th verse of the 1st chapter of the 2nd
Epistle of Peter, using the first half Of
this verse "Wherefore the rather, breth-
ren, give diligence to make your calling
and election sure" saying that in order
to make your calling and election sure
you must necessarily be diligent, and
build up character founded upon faith
and virtue, here saying that the apostle
starts out with the idea that character
cannot be built up without faith, and
that in regard to virtue the word in the
Latin meant manhood, strength and

Will They Do 1t?

THE DURHAM DAILY GLOBE has started
a subscription to have North Carolina
represented at the Worlds fair. 1t heads
the list by donation of $3.50 and asks
all North Carolinians to swell the amount.
Since the $4,000 appropriation (?) by
the last General Assembly proves of no
avail we feel warranted in saying that
all loyal North Carolinians will encour-
age this effort and appropriate according
to their respective means.

The tariff organs continue TO impress
upon their Protectionist readers beauti-
ful lesson in political economy in the re-
peal Of the sugar duties. This remission
Of taxation, they declare, will be felt by
every family in the land; altogether for
getting, IN their newborn zeal for free
trade in sugar, their own assiduous teach
ings that the tariff is paid by the foreign
manufacturer or producer, and not by
the American consumer. The sugar duty,
amounting to about one dollar yearly
upon each head Of population, the Pro-
tectionist now admits, was paid by the
consumer; and every cent Of it, except
the small cost Of collection, went into the
Treasury to help pay pensions, as well as
| principle and interest Of the public debt.
Since taxes must be raised in large
amounts for such objects they could not
fall more lightly than upon the consnmp-
tion Of sugar. But how much revenue
for the support Of the government is
raised from the enormous taxes upon
wool, clothing, blankets, drugs, medi-
cines, salt, coal, lumber, fish, glassware,
hardware, cutlery and numerous other
necessaries Of living? Let the taxes upon
these commodities be repealed, or re-
duced within reasonable rates, and the
tariff organs would have an occasion for
singing q newer and better song Of free
trade than that which has been inspired
in them by this removal Of the sugar
duties. They would nave another and
more favorable opportunity for inculcst-
ing the lesson that home consumers, and
not foreign producers, pay the duties on
on imports, whether the money be paid
into the Treasury or diverted by cunning
legislation into the Golfers Of monopoly

The constitutional convention bill pro-
vides that the trainers may in their dis
cretion provide for the election Of state
officers at the same time that the constitu-
ton is voted on. Those who advocate this
step do so on the ground that il we are
admitted this coming winter we can take
hold at once without the tormality Of an
election and can place two senators in
congress almost Immediately. Those op-
posed to it believe there is job in the
whole inception Of the statehood scheme
TO place the schemers in fat offices. This
latter objection is hardly well taken, mas.
much as the bill was taken up by a re-
publican and its strongest supporters are
"schemers," as some are pleased to name
them, were republicans, and they still
advocate this plan Of electing officers. Az
the territory is democratic by q large
majority. and the election Of democrats
to office is assured, it scarcely seems
plausible that the republican leaders
would put up job Of that kind.-Pros

Of the excursion il TO combine pleasure

complete circuit OF the Territory. The
trip will probably consume most Of the

stops as the company may choose. Among
the interesting places that will be
visited il the old mission church of San

The supreme court Of Missouri has
given a decision that is Of more than
passing interest TO mining men, in that ii
holds that the claim originally monu-
mented hold precedence over a corrected
survey. In the case in point the plaintiff
and defendant owned adjoining mining
lots. Defendant mined quantity Of ore
on the side Of his lot next to plaintiffs !;
corrected survey OF the whole tract
showed that the land from which the ore
was taken was within the true lines oi
the plaintiffs lot, and he brought forcible
entry and detainer against defendant
The evidence showed that when the par
ties went into possession the lots were
marked by stakes and that the defend
ants operations had been confined to his
own lots as originally staked of. "These
stakes were as matter OF law, monu-
ments, which must prevail over the
courses and distances OF the subsequent D."
