A CLEVER DODGE.

One day, last week, two young fel- lows passed through town ostensible selling paper and envelopes, their stock in trade consisting of the contents of a single box. After trying to make sale one of them would take a pair of eye glasses, apparentlysgold mounted, from his vest pocket stating that he had found them in the cars offering to sell them for $2, though really worth 80. After talking while he fell to dollar and made sale. At different places the story varied. Sometimes the glasses were found at one place and sometimes at another. One man who was up to dodge tried on q pair and not fitting his eyes asked the fellow to go out and find a pair that would whereupon "the art ful dodger' left. Judging by the quan- tity of money they exhibited, the dodge had been successful.

New YORK is now interested in a spectacle
which is an entertaining counterpart of the
scenes in which Bob Acres and Sir Lucius
O'Trigger played so amusing part. 1t will
be remembered that when the courage Of
Acres began to ooze from his finger tips in
spite of the blood-curdling oaths in which he
INDUCED TO sustain his collapsing nerves. Sir
Lucius. who was acting the role of second,
proclaimed very loudly his desire TO have a
shot at anybody who was willing TO stand up
before him pistol in hand. Mr. Borrowe, Of
New York, has been branded as a coward by
Mr.. Drayton. and the accusation seems TO
have excited the ire of Mr. Milbank. his English
second, VINO has killed his three men, Mr.. Bor-
rowe himself remaining somewhat supine
under the charge, probably because. like Bob
Acres he is conscious that he IS unequal TO
all the demands upon q duelist. Like his
great predecessor. Sir Lucius. Mr.. Blllbank
has publicly announced that he will fight any
one who is dissatisfied with MIR. BorTowe's
conduct, generosity OF friendship which
probably no one appreciates more than Mr..
Borrowe himself. We are curious 10 see
whether the challenge of the modern O'Trig-
ger will meet with an earlier response than it
did in the play.

THE DRAYroN- BoREowE SCANDAL

The New York papers continue still to
publish day by day whatever sensational in
cident they can get hold of touching the
Drayton-Borrowe scandal. To our mind this
is one of the most disgusting evidences pos
sible of the low plane upon which public SEN
timent moves in New YORK. Newspapers
aim at publishing what they think their read
ers wish to see and when the New York
papers cleave to this scandal as they do. it is
because they know New Workers wish to read
it.
One would naturally expect those who long
to look into. if not enter, the exclusive circles
Of high life, to seek eagerly for items of this
nature. but the New York dailies are not pub
lished for their reading. They aim at secur-
leg the attention of the great body of the
people in New York. and we are therefore
justified in judging of the tone Of the readers
from the nature of the matter furnished them.
New York gloats over the Drayton-Borrowe
scandal from those who frequent her most
gaudily furnished bathrooms to those who
who polish up the brasses of the l. road cars.
One of the most peculiar phases Of the
affair is the fippancy with which al classes
talk of a duel between Messrs Drayton and
Borrowe, as if dueling was not as absolutely
dead all over this country as the methods
OF the Inquistion. The duel served a great
purpose when delicate honor and the cloanest
integrity we're qualities without which no
man could hope to enter the highest walks in
society. let even there common sense has
condemned it as illogical and barbarous. But
for New York's heterogeneous mob, pursuing
the dollar with all its speed, and aiming al
the dollar by whatever route it may be
reached, to take on paroxysms OF chivalry, and
publish to the world that it is for blood OF
nothing IS of that amusing character to make
horse Taught is trayesty.
Some one in New York recently sent some
books TO u police station with which the
policemen might amuse themselves when
not on duty. Amongst the books was Glib.

Roman Empire. A cop" coming of his beat

A few days ago we called attention 10 a fact
upon which Representative Stone. of Penn
sylvania, had already dwelt at some length,
namely. that the Silver bill which Dir. Bland
has been advocating with so much earnestness
in Congress is notable counterpart Of a
measure which was passed through the Viz
ginia House OF Burgesses in the early part Of
the eighteenth century. largely through the
influence Of his ancestor, Richard Bland, a
distinguished member Of that assembly.
1t is remarkable how history repeats itself
in the unenightened acts of national leeisla-
lures. The famous tobacco warehouse cer-
tihcate law. upon which Mr. BANDS bill was
modelled is not the only measure of those
times which has been reproduced and re-
enacted IN the present century. Go back oue
hundred years prior TO tho passage of the
Bland act Of the eighteenth country and we
find law in operation which was in many re-
spects an exact reflection. so fur as il bears
upon the interests of landowners. Of the
tariff system which now prevails in the United
States. This law was the celebrated nayiga-
ton act Of Charles H.. passed originally
under the administration of Cromwell but
not in force in Virginia until the second
Charles came into possession of the English
throne
The navigation act was a direct blow at the
Interests OF the Colonial planter. although it
was passed ostensibly for the encouragement
Of the British sailor. Three classes were in.

Our Weldon correspondent informs US that
few days ago one John williamson prom
inent negro politician Of Raleigh, made a
speech in which he advised the negroes of that
State 10 stand solid. because the white peo-
pie were splitting to pieces, and as soon as
the gap was wide enough the negroes could
slip in"
This is a candid and wholesome warning
If the white men of North Carolina will per-
sist in forsaking the Democratic party to run
after such dangerous will-o'-the-wisps as free
coinage of seyenty-cent dollars and SUBJ Treas
ury schemes they will soon find themselves
hopelessly split in twain and the negroes
with their regular carpet-bag, scallawag
and Radical contingent OF robbers In
full possession of the State. Free silver IS
dead beyond any hope Of resurrection. and
what the white people of the old North State
should now do is to throw overheard all
sheming tricksters grid up their loins and
pull hard together for Democratic principles
