THE PANIC is OVER.

The concensus of opinion is that the
panic is about over. Certainly we
have seen the worst OF it and the ten
dency now is toward general improve
ment. The american Wool and Cot
ton Reporter says:
The country has already entered
upon the road to recovery. Following
in this line the Lowell Meas says that
in financial circles there is already an
easier feeling, as is indicated in the
lowering of rates of interest on loans
and the increasing facilities in obtain
ing time loans; the tendency is normal
money, and some OF the keenest OBJ
servers in financial matters have ex-
pressed their opinion that money will
be drug in the market in short
time. In the mercantile and industrial
world there is also evidence that a
change has taken place and that the
convalescent period has set in, which
will lead inevitably to absolute re-
covery.
The mills are starting up, and
orders are being placed by buyers.
Naturally, the mercantile and COM
merclal interests will be the slowest 10
recover, but there is ample warrant
for the belief that the recovery will be
rapid, and that good business will be
an accomplished fact long before the
period pesslmists would have us
expect. 1t is fortunate circumstance,
remarks our contemporary, that the
cause of the depression was not due to
any inherent trouble in the industrial
or mercantile interests that it was
not due to over-expanson of credits,
or to over production of goods; and
to this may be attributed the proba-
bility that the recovery to general
business will be rapid.

Some Remin iscences.

EDITOR GOLD LEAF:-In the Raleigh
Neus- Observer Chronicle of the 5th inst,
Capt. Ashe, in brief editorial article
commenting on some reminiscent re-
marks of Col Creecy, of the Elizabeth
City Economist Falcon touching the origin
and application of the name of Oregon
inlet, states that the steamer Oregon was
the first of the kind that ploughed the
waters of the Pamlico and Tar. In this
he is mistaken. In 1886, or perhaps in
the spring Of 1887, the side wheel steamer
E. d. MacNair was the first that ever
made the trip from Washington to Tar
boro. She was a small but beautiful
boat, and was owned by Mr.. VIM. Tan
Tannahill, of New York City. She made
several excursions between the two
places, but was designed to tow RATS to
the large lumber mills located at Wash
ington, n c., owned by the firm of Tan
nahill & Lavender. In June 1916, the
stern wheel steamer Wayne, owned by
Messrs. Dibble & Bro, of Kinston, N. c.,
commanded by Capt. DeLand, was put
on the same route. She made several
excursion trips to Tarboro, but was
taken off. In the spring of 1848 r1S49
the merchants of Tarboro formed COM
pany and purchased the side wheel
steamer Oregon, commanded by Capt.
Hale, but she, drawing too much water,
was not available and was taken off and
sold to W. H. Willard. l think she was
afterwards used in the barter trade for
several years ON Pamlico river, COM
manded by Capt. Hale. During the war
she was used by the Confederate Govern
ment and name was changed to the
Co.. d. II. Hill. Her hulk lies buried in
the sands of the Tar few miles below
Tarboro.
think about the year 1S49 quite
large steamer, the Gov. Graham, was
placed on the Tar, but proving too large
was taken off. In the fall of 1849, the
stern wheel steamer Amidas, owned by
Messrs. John Myers & Sons, Washing
ton, commanded by Capt. DeLand, piled
between Washington and Tarboro one
or two years. She was sold and replaced
by the stern wheel steamer Morehead,
commanded by Capt. DeLand, afterwards
by Capt. Quinn, and piled between Wash
ington and Greenville. B. F. Ravens
built and put on the same route the
stern wheel steamer Wilson. Other par
ties afterwards put on the stern wheel
steamer Cotton Plant, then the Isis and
North East, propellers, Greenville, side
wheel steamers Idrboro, Beaufort and r. L.
Myers. The last two were owned and
controlled by John Myers's Sons, and
commanded by Capts. Parvin and Hill.

THE PROSPEROUS SOUTH.

1t would be hard to assign an &C
ceptable reason for the South's present
prosperity, for while the North, West
and East have been troubled by a
restless condition in financial circles,
the South seems solvent and quiet.
Possibly, their bank deposits are not
made up as largely from class of
small depositors as are those in the
other sections of our country. But
the cause lies deeper. Changes in
many directions have placed the
South on sure and stable foundation.
But a few years ago the expectation of
fruits and vegetables from this favored
land was no element of trade. Now,
with rapid train service, this trade
probably aggregates $50, 100000 a
year, and rapidly growing. New and
large orchards of small fruits will be
adding, from year to year, to this
total. While cotton is low in price,
the production has nearly doubled in
ten years, and now the United States,
or the South, produces two thirds of
the cotton used in the worlds manu-
| facture.
In permanent value, however, the
development of manufacturing es-
adjustments in new lines has been
much more important factor than
the products of the soil. The cotton
| that blossoms and blooms in the sun is
now being turned into thread and
cloth within sight of the fields wherein
it grew. Coal and iron are so largely
produced that the day may not be far
distant when Pennsylvania's crown of
iron will be placed on Alabama S
brow. And that Massachusetts,, too,
will be compelled to give up her
pre-eminence in the making of cotton
goods and congratulate Georgia upon
her success in the race.
The production of corn has increased
largely, and naturally Herewith more
cattle and hogs. In short, all the
possibilities of this section OF our
country are being developed. No
man in the North begrudges the South
one iota of her prosperity. Indirectly
all enjoy the usufruct. The prosperity
of one part is the prosperity of all. 1t
is but the beginning of greater things.
Not generation ago it was desolate
land. 1t required person with a
stout heart to even hope. But the
changes came, and came with a rush.
1t has not stopped, nor will it stop so
long as the natural advantages of the
South exist and need Development

The clouds of financial depression
are passing away. Money is gettin g
easier and more plentiful in the great
business centres. Times are growing
perceptibly better. Suspended banks

The premium on currency has disap-
peared, and contemporary notes the

The Washington correspondent of the
Richmond Dispatch, writing to that
paper under recent date made the fol-
lowing mention OF Senator Ransom =:
Senator Ransom does not often
make speech in the Senate, but he is
regarded as one of the greatest party
workers in the body of which he is a
member, and the talk here is that he
has done as much as any one else to
create a sentiment toward liberal
compromise, so far as the financial
legislation is concerned. The Caro-
lima Senator is indefatigable in his
work, and has great influence among
his legislative associates.

WE agree with the Wilmington
(Delaware) Sta, when it says:
The rage for illustrations in the
daily newspapers has reached a point
that imperatively demands reform.
Illustrations are we'll enough in their
way, and when they are reasonably
accurate, and tend to assist in explain
ing the subject-matter of the article
with which they are connected, they
are timely and valuable. But with
many papers there is simply craze
for illustrations, no matter whether
they are accurate or not, and often
with an entire indifference to their
unsightly character. The so-called
portraits of public men printed in the
big metropolitan dailies are frequently
sufficiently scandalous to furnish their
subjects with ample grounds for libel
suits.

TO COIN MORE SILVER DOLLARS

~ NOAN MChG OIL En- DOAIAno.
A dispatch from Washington dated
Saturday says:
President Cleveland and Secretary
Caxlilse had a conference to-day and
agreed that of all the plans proposed
the best was TO coin the seigniorage of
silver now in the treasury. That
amounts to $50 100000. Mr.. Carlisle
talked with the leaders of both houses
of Congress about the matter to-day
and found them all in favor of the
plan.
Whether or not bill providing for
this will be adopted at once or delayed
until after the passage of the repeal
bill by the Senate has not been
decided. Senator German is inclined
to the opinion that it had best be
delayed until after the passage of the
repeal bill. Secretary Carlisle and
several senators who rank among the
leaders think such action would
facilitate the passage of the repeal
bill, it being just what the silver men
are crying for.
The President has been urged to
send special message to Congress
urging the immediate passage of such
bill, but whether he does or not, the
plan has been agreed upon and bill
providing for the immediate issue of
S52,ooo,ooo of silver certificates and
the coinage of the S52 200, 900 of bull
lion to be held in the treasury for the
redemption of the notes will probably
be adopted within less than two
| weeks. =
Everybody in both houses will
favor this bill. There will probably
not be a score of votes against it.
This is certainly further recognition
of silver as money metal.

On the occasion of the presence of
the West Point cadets at the Worlds
Fair, the Chicago Herald took
occasion to pay the Southern boys
and the records made by them at that
famous institution, high and merited
tribute. 1t says:
One curious thing about the cadets
is the fact that the Southern boys as a
rule stand higher in their classes than
do their Northern brethren. 1t is
easy to understand that they should
more readily grasp the military spirit,
for their fathers before them were
lovers of arms, and had excellent
military companies in every city in the
South, while men of the North were
busy making money. But why should
they excel Intellectually is not SO easily
understood. Yet it seems to be an
admitted fact that they do.
