Dry Goods.

NEW YORK. Jan. 3.-The changes in the
dry-goods market, though slight, have been
generally favorable. The talk is generally
more cheerful, but as yet the greater conn
dence has not been expressed TO any con-
siderable extent in the actual takings or
buyers. The more bullish talk as to the
cotton market, based on the falling off in
the receipts is reflected in a rather frmer
market for cotton staples without resulting
in quotation changes in price. The diff
ference seems to be based on the hope of
q general revival Of business interests.
Print cloths hold about steady, at full
prices, but are quiet, with the demand re-
stricted almost altogether to spring styles.
The market for ginghams and woven fab
rics and dress goods generally is steady and
moderately active. The jobbing trade opens
up in pretty good form with a good attend
ance of buyers and some larger confidence
shown in providing for future wants.

THE RISE AND FALL OF EMPIRES.
K. G.. AvERITT.

Correspondence of the Progressive Farmer.
In the infancy of q nation it was
composed of the middle classes and
there were few rich and poor. AS the
nation grew older wealth accumulated,
the rich increased on the one hand and
the poor on the other and the middle
class diminished in the same ratio and
in time the nation was composed of the
rich and poor and the middle class had
disappeared In the ratio that the
wealth Of the country was concentrated
into the hands of the few and the
masses poverty stricken, drunkenness,
licensciousness and crime increased.
The stability of a nation rests with the
moral forces of the middle class and
their destruction is the forerunner of
dissolution. The nation composed of
the rich and poor fall an easy prey to
younger nations. The history of every
great nation in ancient times shows
that the wealth of the country was
concentrated into the hands of the few
by the control of money and the accu-
mulative power of interest. Money
loaned has always possessed an accu-
mulative power greater than labor and
in time piled up a mountain of debt
and the interest from this depleted the
volume from the channels of trade and
concentrated it into the hands of the
few, shrunk values, and this was the
first step in the decadence of the nation.
After money was concentrated into the
hands of the few it was easy to absolve
the wealth of the nation, and this was
the second step in the nations decline.
AS the poor became poorer and the
rich richer, l-icensciousness, drunken
ness and crime increased, the nation
became effeminate, and when they were
not crushed by younger nations dis
ease and impotency terminated their
career.
We are in the first stage of decline
and it is easy for the people to politi-
cally cooperate and apply the remedy.
Allow the second stage to be com
pleted and the disease will pass beyond
control. Let every patriot resolve to
do his whole duty and dethrone the
power that threatens us with prema.

State. In regard to these two points
the doctor is very much mistaken. In
the first place it is impossible for the
University to be self sustaining. Wake
Forest College itself is not self sustain
ing and the doctor is fully aware of
this fact. If the college could average
300 students every year at the present
rate of tuition-$6O per year-the in
come would only be $12, 600 per year,
and the college, in order to be up to
the standard, must have at least twelve
professors, and this would only give
each professor $1,000 per year, pro-
vided they get all of the $12, OOO, and
every one knows there must be some
outside expense connected with a Col
Iege. Now where is the money to come
from to pay these 'professors9 Surely
no man, who is competent for a college
professor, can work for much less than
81, 900 per year, and the college is
obliged to receive outside aid in the
shape of donations, etc. Just SO it is
with the University. If the University
averaged 800 students a year, the in
come would only be SIS, 900, and any
one can see that this is not enough to
pay a competent corps of teachers to
carry on a University. It must re-
ceive aid and where is this aid to come
from if the State does not give il We
must have a University. Everybody
admits this fact, and as there is no de-
nomination to aid it, the State must
come to its rescue.
Perhaps some will say that the
money ought to go to the public schools.
We are willing to admit that the pub
lie schools need more aid, but at the
same time we need a University and,
the State must aid or we can't have it.
Admitting that the public schools need
aid there is still nc reason why the
State should not aid her University,
because she is fully able to give the
public schools and the University both
all the aid they need. Indeed I long
to see the day come when the Univers-
ity shall receive aid sufficient from the
State to enable it to give free tuition to
every boy who will go there. So let us
lay aside the narrow lines of sectarian-
ism and come together and give the
University and the public schools all
they need in the way of State aid.

FROM JACKSON COUNTY.

Correspondence of the Progressive Farmer.
The Alliance cause in Jackson still
stands the storms in spite of all the
political fusion and confusion that a
be paraded by designing politicians in
side and outside of the Alliance. The
true Alliance principles in Jackson
county are on a boom and have been
gradually but surely on the uphill pull
for the past year and are still climbing
the hill that we true Alliancemen are
working to get to the top of. The
motto OF the Sub to which your scrib-
bier belongs is, Alliance first, Alliance
Last and Alliance all the time. Let the
politicians and off se seekers have their
