aohioSlol, ~. w., NOV. 0U.-
South Caroiua is going to havc trou.
bic in securing reimbursement from
the Federal government for tho
money she expended to assist in
equipping troops for tho war with
SPAN. Senator McLaurin, at the in.
stance Of Governor Ellcrbe, recently
brought the matter to tho attention
o. the troasuary officials, and ho dis
covered that the amount expended
by Governor Ellerbe is to ho held as
set off against an old debt which is
charged up against the Palmetto
State on the book Of tho accounting
officer Of the treasury.
Senator McLaurin in relating tic
circumstance says:
"Govo,nor E!lerbo when tho first
call for troops was made went ahead
and used all his contingent fund to
defray tho expenses of mobilizing
the troops from South Carolina.
Other Governors responded in the
samo patriotic manner, and repeated
assurances were x ven All tho war de-
partmcnt that they would be rciu.-
barsed rs soon rs their claims wtro

Lincoln on Champagne.

Selected.
Several times during his presidency,
Abraham Lincoln had occasion to re-
buke his governmental associates. One
of the most effective Of these, because
administered in Linco!n's own inimit-
able, good -natured way, Is recounted by
Gen. Porter in reminiscent article in
the Century.
It was on trip down the Potomac to
visit Gen. Grants army. Lincoln did
not feel quite we'll. Perhaps he was a
trifle seasick, and he said so. In Gen.
Porter's words:
can officer of the party now saw that
an opportunity had arisen to make this
the supreme moment OF giving him a
chance to soothe the digestive organs OF
the Chief Magistrate of the nation.
He said: TRY glass of champagne,
Mr.. President. That Is always acertain
cure for seasickness.' Mr.. Lincoln look
ed up at him for a moment, his lace
lighted up with smile, and then re-
marked: No, my friend haye seen
too many fellows seasick ashore from
drinking that very stuff
"This was a settler Tor the officer, and
all present joined heartily in the laugh
at his expense"

Rose Tree 1000 Years Old.
Pall-Mall Gazette.

PAIL Mall Gazette.
One of the most interesting curiosl-
ties In Germany is the rose tree at Hill
deshiem, which is more than l,OOO
years old. Its existence can be traced
back to the time of Charlemagne, and
it is a fact that it was mentioned as
curiosity in old chronicles of the ninth
century. 1t twlnes round large part
of the ancient Cathedral OF Hildesheim
near Brunswick, and with its countless
blossoms presents in the season an en-.
trancing spectacle. This venerable
witness from bygone ages has been at
tackled by some insidious insect that
threatens it with destruction. The
Hildesheimers, to whom the roses are
a sacred heirloom, have summoned the
best authorities III arborculture to
their aid, but the fate of their tree fills
them with anxiety.

We are surprised that the New York
Sun, a paper that hears and sees and

name of Rev. Baylus Cade, OF North

talents. They first glittered in the pull
pit. then as political editor OF the State
Alliance organ, next as lawyer, then
again in the pulpit, then as Populist
campaign orator, then as Chaplain ola
Western penitentiary, and at present
are shining as Secretary OF the Rail-
road Department in Republican Cow
ernor Russell's Office, under the title Of
Major. If the Sun is yet willing to do
Justice to its North Carolina constitu-

T. A. Hobbs in Wilmington Messenger.
In the issue of your paper OF last
week I read an article from you on
fruit culture, Or rather growing apples
in this state. Perhaps there are few
who take the interest they should in
growing fruit. My father, w. P.
Hobbs. planted an orchard of about
five acres of apple trees, and about
five OF peach, about fifty years ago.
He, like most others, thought it too
small a business to sell fruit. He died
in September, 1885. Alter his death l
got possession of the old homestead.
1 shipped apples from the orchard that
sold for one dollar per bushel in north
ern markets, and summer apples, too.
Such varieties as the Carolina June,
Summer Rose, most delicious apple,
that lipens on July lst +; the we'll known
Yellow Haas, which there IS none bet
ter, except, perhaps, the Magnum
Bonum, that rlpens in August here
Then there is the Wlnesap, of which
you spoke; the Ben Davis, as we'll as a
splendid winter apple.
It may interest you to know that
having been convinced that there Was
money in fruit growing right here IL
Sampson county, set about to plant
about all ot-my cleared land In fruit
trees and vines, until now [ have about
200 acres planted in fruit trees ano
vines. about 10000 trees and vines
about 100 acres in apple trees, consist
ing of about sixty varieties of apples
peaches of almost every kind grown
here many kinds of grapes, about 50(
peach trees, and some pears and othel
fruits.
This his not been done without en-
ergy and considerable outlay of money
There is more to do than 10 stick I
tree in the ground and say, "Grow ant
some day satisfy my desires" 1t re
auires great care and attention to max
a successful fruit grower.
