y BRIEF STORY WITH
MORAL.

When trade grew slack and
notes fell due, the merchants face
grew long and blue: his dreams
were troubled through the
night, with Sheriff. bailifs
all i'll sight. At last his wife unto
him said: Rise up at once-get
out OF bed; and get your paper,
ink, and pen, and say these words
unto all men: My goods I wish
to sell to YOU, and to your wives
and daughters, too; my prices are
SO very low, that all will buy be-
fore they go He did as by his
wife advised, and in the paper
advertised. Crowds came and
bought off all he had; his notes
were paid, his dreams were glad;
and he will tell you to this day
how we'll did printers ink repay.
He told us, with a knowing
wink, how he was saved by
printers ink.

THE THIRDITES.

The Populists held their State
convention on the end inst, at
Raleigh, and nominated w. T.
Faircloth for chief justice; D. NJ.
Furches, Walter Clark and H. c..
Connor for associate justices. The
first two are Republicans, the
others Democrats, Judge Clark
being now OH the Supreme court
beHch and Common an ex-judge.
The platform, a very long one,
denounces the old parties and
demands the issue of green backs
and free coinage of silver. but
omits the sub-treasury bill.
A resolution honoring the
memory of Senator Vance was
adopted.
Judge Clark says he is a DEM

associate justice if nominated by
the Democrats, but under no
other circumstances will he be a
candidate.
