who participate in this movement, most
earnestly and heartily for the honor such

for the kindly personal feeling toward
myself which inspires it; and I regret
exceedingly that present circumstances,
including the state of my health, render
it advisable for me to decline all public
demonstrations of the kind at this time.
1t is my wish to spend few days at

With grateful good wishes for you all

that town and also to the surrounding
country. A company has been organized
BY some leading business men to make q
suecislty of the examination by able ex
perts of all kinds of mineral properties, to
have analyses made of ores and to establish
general exchange or headquarters where
full information can be had by anyone OF
II the mineral resources of that district
Efforts will be made to attract the atten.
,ion ofoutside capitalists to the work of the
exchange and when necessary local capita
will join that from outside in the develop
ment of the properties that have been
fully examined and favorably reported
upon.
This is q plain, practical, eommonsense
way Of making Charlotte the centre ol
the industrial interests that will be devel
oped in that district, but more than that
ii is an excellent way in which to find ou,
just what are the available resources O
the region, to make thorough investiga
ton of them and then to make known te
the world just what the opportunities tol
Investment are.-MGnufactGrers' Record.

Habit in Q fixed principle of acting,
thinking, and judging. There 10 no &C.
ton however small that does not leave its
impress upon our character. Character
ID the sum of habits, and habit is the sum
Of separate actions.
On one Of the streets of Pompeii, which
was 80 narrow that only one chariot could
pass at time. you can see broad groove
from six inches to q foot deep. If We had
lived thousand years ago, we would
have seen that o single chariot had not
made that groove, but as the different
chariots passed each day, each wearing
away few grains OF dust, deep rut was
made
Every action of ours wears q little
groove in our brain, and if the action 10
repeated, the groove is made deeper, and
80 becomes permanent in . short time.
The more frequently On action is re-
peated, the more fixed becomes the habit.
It is very important for rs to watch our
actions.
Whom we do thing once, it 10 very
easy to do it again, and We should be
careful not to do il once, if we do not wish
to do it again.
As the years pass by, our habits be-
come formed, and it is not easy to change
them. When q man, who has been using
tobacco for many years tries to quit it, he
seldom succeeds.
The habits we form in childhood are
not for this life alone. Just what we
make our character here, so it will be in
the great hereafter.
Every idle word or act which may lead
to bad habit, leaves an indelible stamp
On our very soul.
The Charlotte Democrat., 1893-12-01
The Cause Thereof.

ABOUT the most remarkable case of
deliberate and persistent partisan blind
ness that has ever been exhibited in this
country, is shown by glance at the his.
tory OF the last three years in connection
with the contemporary statements of
certain republican politicians and papers.
In 1880 the tariff act was passed, and pro
nounced to be in the most delightful
harmony with the party platform of 1888.
But 10 the congressional elections of that
year came along, and swept out of public
life nearly every man who was O promin>
ent advocate of that measure. But we
didn't hear anything from republican
sources about the tariff tinkers being re.
buked. 1t was caused by the influx OF
foreigners, or the numbering of negroes,
or the heavy rainfall, or the great drouth,
anything and everything so that it wasn't
the tariff. Then came the presidential
election of 1892. Every prominent man
on both sides declared that protection was
on trial, and that the result must be ac-
cepted as expressing the sentiments oi
the voters on this question. The republi
can platform had declared for protection,
with reciprocity for desert. Mr. Harrison
was in the fullest accord with the plat
form. The democrats declared for rev
enue only, and no public man ever stood
more squarely upon question than had
MIR. Cleveland for five years on the ques
tion of tariff reform. There had been
no business depression, no executive
acts to be rebuked, no foreign complica-
tions to turn the peoples heads, and what
was the result2 The most overwhelming
avalanche that ever bore down policy
swept away the advocates of the Mckinley
Bill. No candidate ever carried SO many
states before, and no president had ever
before received so many electoral votes
as did Mr. Cleveland, and yet not single
statesman or paper opposed to his policy
was frank enough to admit that it was a
rebuke to protectionists. Now, howe YER
when there has been an election in Eve or
six states, at which not q single official
was elected who could influence national
legislation, when the panic which the re
publicans had bequeathed to us was still
with US, when purely local and not
national issues were in the main discussed
the high-priests of the G. o. P. hold q
grand festival and felicitate over the re
cent elections as o great triumph for pro-
lection.

Parody on The Bridge,

stood on the porch at midnight,
As the clocks were striking the hour,
And the old gent rose-what o pity
His look was dark and sour.
Among heI long dark tresses,
Ny trembling fingers lay,
When the old gents number elevens,
Seemed to lift and bear me away.
As sweeping, eddying through me,
Arose my belated pride,
And streaming into the moonlight,
Ny coat tails floated wide.
And like q Cyclone rushing
Among my quaking fears,
A food Of thoughts came DER me,
AS blushed behind my ears.
How often, o. how often,
In the days that have gone by,
Have I stood on that porch at midnight
And gazed on her bangs and eye.
How often, o how often,
l have wished that the eddying tide
Would bear the old gent on its bosom,
Ger the ocean wild and wide.
For my heart was hot and restless,
And my life was full of scare,
And I hardly dared to kiss her,
For fear her pa was there.
But now he has ceased to annoy,
He sleeps beneath the tree,
And only the sorrows of others
Draws q mournful wall from me.
As I thiuk how many thousands,
Of care encumbered men,
Each having burden Of leather,
Has sprung from porch since then.
Forever and forever,
AS thus o courtship goes,
As long % the heart has passions
As long as boots have toes,
A porch and sign of q fflietion,.
And papa shall appear,
AS the symbol Of love at midnight
And swift skedaddling there.
