There were grave doubt, in <lb/>
minds of many people, as to the <lb/>
wisdom this act, at the time of <lb/>
ts passage A man might have <lb/>
in his an I sheet <lb/>
another as often as ho pleased, and, <lb/>
if he i happened to a <lb/>
poor marksman, could go before <lb/>
a Justice of Peace, pay a sin ill <lb/>
fine, an take time to practice for <lb/>
the next victim of his wrath. De- <lb/>
indicted in the Superior <lb/>
Courts assaults and affray with <lb/>
deadly weapon, were not. slow to <lb/>
the effects of <lb/>
an act, and at once sought to <lb/>
take advantage of it. <lb/>
S hasty were they, indeed, that <lb/>
the Legislature, passed the <lb/>
act, hail scarcely adjourned, when <lb/>
Supreme Court, at its present <lb/>
session, was called upon to consider, <lb/>
upon appeal, a plea to the <lb/>
of one of the Superior Courts, <lb/>
interposed by a defendant who was <lb/>
indicted for an assault with a deadly <lb/>
weapon. After reciting the recent <lb/>
act, the Supreme held <lb/>
State vs. that it was <lb/>
because the jurisdiction <lb/>
of Justices is limited to those of <lb/>
fences the punishment for which <lb/>
exceed a flan of fifty dollars, <lb/>
or imprisonment for thirty days, <lb/>
and under the statute, assaults and <lb/>
affrays are punishable within the <lb/>
discretion of the Court. <lb/>
The Legislature, striking <lb/>
failed to altar the <lb/>
that being the test <lb/>
jurisdiction as fixed by the <lb/>
it remains where it <lb/>
before the passage of this <lb/>
is to say, in the Superior Courts. <lb/>
It is important that Justices of <lb/>
the Peace should make a note of <lb/>
this, as defendants tried and pun- <lb/>
by them under a mistake of <lb/>
their power recent act, <lb/>
would not be protected against in- <lb/>
and punishment in the <lb/>
Superior Courts. <lb/>
Raleigh and A <lb/>

went out to investigate it. He found <lb/>
a man had gone off with his horse, <lb/>
and ordered him to stop, but the man <lb/>
tried to go the faster, Dr. William- <lb/>
son Bred and killed him. The would <lb/>

ABOUT TOBACCO. <lb/>
For tho benefit of those who <lb/>
not familiar with tho methods of <lb/>
growing and curing tobacco, the <lb/>
following will be of <lb/>
Tobacco intended for blights <lb/>
should be set out early May, <lb/>
and not later than the first of <lb/>
June. <lb/>
good preparation of tho soil <lb/>
is half she do not be <lb/>
satisfied until the land is good <lb/>
order. Have tho laud well <lb/>
ed with good manure and <lb/>
commercial fertilizer. Make the <lb/>
rows about throe feet throe inches <lb/>
apart and the hills two feet ten <lb/>
inches apart m tho rows. Plant <lb/>
when the is moist from <lb/>
recent rains. <lb/>
Cultivating should soon <lb/>
after planting, so as to the <lb/>
soil and start tho plants growing. <lb/>
If the preparation of tho soil <lb/>
fore planting has been good, plow <lb/>
the crop three times, followed <lb/>
by a hand hoe should sufficient. <lb/>
Keep the laud well stirred and <lb/>
free from grass, no mutter with <lb/>
what implement. <lb/>
Breaking off the leaves around <lb/>
the bottom is called priming, but <lb/>
this is not done tho hangers <lb/>
are used in curing, for tho leaves <lb/>
are allowed to ripen and cured, <lb/>
thus adding twenty per cent, to <lb/>
the value of tho crop and protect- <lb/>
the leaves from sand and <lb/>
grit and keeping them <lb/>
When the plant commences to <lb/>
button for seed, it must topped <lb/>
the of leaves to left <lb/>
varying to the <lb/>
so that all the leaves will <lb/>
have time to ripen before frost. <lb/>
All suckers should pulled off <lb/>
as soon as appear, and must <lb/>
never be allowed to grow, as they <lb/>
abstract much nutriment from the <lb/>
plant, which would otherwise go <lb/>
into tho loaves. <lb/>
the bottom leaves begin <lb/>
to ripen, and there are of <lb/>
them to fill a barn, pulling <lb/>
must then commence Have cue <lb/>
person carry a basket -a boy or <lb/>
woman will have two <lb/>
men, one on each pull tho <lb/>
leaves them in tho <lb/>
basket, which as fast as they <lb/>
filled arc carried to the barn, <lb/>
and there strung on the hangers. <lb/>
The leaves should be strung on <lb/>
back to back, so that when c up <lb/>
they will not all the same <lb/>
way. Light weight yellow tobacco <lb/>
should not be allowed to wilt <lb/>
hauling to the barn, as it is <lb/>
more easily bruised when wilted. <lb/>
By pulling tho leaves as they <lb/>
ripen you save all tho loaves on <lb/>
tho plant and can cure them all <lb/>
yellow, which was impossible <lb/>
the old methods. This plan <lb/>
has also tho in tho <lb/>
transportation of tho tobacco from <lb/>
field to barn, as the loaves do not <lb/>
braise as easily when carried in <lb/>
baskets as piled in the <lb/>
wagon on sticks; and they do <lb/>
bruise considerably man- <lb/>
aged that way, no matter with <lb/>
what care they handled. <lb/>
curing tho tobacco yellow by <lb/>
this process the extreme heat used <lb/>
is never over degrees, as then <lb/>
arc no stalks to cure, and de- <lb/>
is tho highest heat any veg- <lb/>
can be to for <lb/>
any considerable length of time <lb/>
without injury ; to go much above <lb/>
this dissipates the essential oils, <lb/>
and tends to make the tobacco <lb/>
light and <lb/>

Cotton in Liverpool has reached <lb/>
the lowest point recorded in forty <lb/>
years, there is every <lb/>
of its going still lower. The <lb/>
reason this is production, <lb/>
too much cotton having been <lb/>
last year. The crop 1800 is now <lb/>
estimated at from eight a hall <lb/>
millions to eight and three quarter <lb/>
millions of bales, and the estimates <lb/>
of cotton men are considered very <lb/>
nearly correct. This immense crop <lb/>
necessitates carrying over to the <lb/>
next season one a quarter <lb/>
million bales. To carry all this cot- <lb/>
ton through the mouths <lb/>
to the opening of next seas n means <lb/>
a great expense, hence the <lb/>
This state of affairs is <lb/>
to make the farmer pause and <lb/>
consider. Another big cotton <lb/>

about the crops, but it more <lb/>
than that to make a farmer. <lb/>
Mr. Harrison is getting a taste <lb/>
of Southern hospitality, but that <lb/>

any Southern electoral next <lb/>

Mr. Mills, Congressman from <lb/>
Texas, says this will be his last <lb/>
term in the House. If the people <lb/>
of Texas want him in public life <lb/>
longer they must send him to the <lb/>
Senate. Mr. Mills is a good Con- <lb/>
and the country still <lb/>
needs him, and ho ought to serve <lb/>
as long as they want him whether <lb/>
in the House or Senate. <lb/>
Senator Morgan thinks it is not <lb/>
war but cash that Italy wants. It <lb/>
will be some time before she gets <lb/>
either from United States. We <lb/>
are in a to and <lb/>
Fifty-first Congress not <lb/>
spent all the the money there was <lb/>
in the Treasury but all that is ex- <lb/>
to come in for a year or two. <lb/>
Perhaps if King Humbert knew <lb/>
this he change his tactics. <lb/>
Mr. Blaine's cablegram cost the <lb/>
Italian Government over nine <lb/>
hundred dollars. At that rate <lb/>
Italy will be a great looser if <lb/>
goes on much longer. It <lb/>
will loose a great deal more than <lb/>
it will gain, for Mr. Blaine gives <lb/>
it to understand that the United <lb/>
States does not insure the lives of <lb/>
such trash as they send us. The <lb/>
United States is not a Life In- <lb/>
Company. <lb/>
Hon. B. F. Butler, better known <lb/>
in the South as was <lb/>
put out of court in Boston a few <lb/>
days ago. He said he had been <lb/>
practicing law fifty-six years and <lb/>
it was the first time he had ever <lb/>
known a man put out of court <lb/>
when trying to speak in behalf of <lb/>
his client. After ho was put out <lb/>
he took a good crying spell. Per- <lb/>
haps his heart is a little tenderer <lb/>
than it was during the war when <lb/>
he was in the South. <lb/>
newspapers seem to be a lit- <lb/>
off about birth of a new <lb/>
nation in the recent <lb/>
federation of the Australian <lb/>
into one commonwealth. So <lb/>
far as can be grip of Eng- <lb/>
land is just as strong upon new- <lb/>
federate as it was <lb/>
upon several colonies, when <lb/>
each held independent relations <lb/>
with mother country, and we <lb/>
know of no good reason for <lb/>
that the Australians wish it <lb/>
to be otherwise. We <lb/>
when all become re- <lb/>
publics, but we think <lb/>
an republic is still a long ways off. <lb/>
Whither are we drifting As if <lb/>
the acceptance of a free special <lb/>
train from the railroad magnates <lb/>
was not a sufficient insult to the <lb/>
great mass of the people, who be- <lb/>
that the President is entitled <lb/>
to the privileges of a plain every <lb/>
day American citizen, no more, no <lb/>
less, the front car of the special <lb/>
free train on which Mi. Harrison <lb/>
is making his political tour is em- <lb/>
blazoned with gold letters <lb/>
Presidential Photo- <lb/>
graphs of this royally equipped <lb/>
train should be distributed from <lb/>
one end of the country to the <lb/>
particularly among the people <lb/>
who have to work for a living and <lb/>
to buy second class railroad tick- <lb/>
or walk, when they wish to go <lb/>
anywhere. The train upon which <lb/>
Her Majesty, Queen Victoria, took <lb/>
recent jaunt was not to <lb/>
compared, for magnificence, to <lb/>
that upon which Mr. Harrison is <lb/>
now traveling. Is it any wonder <lb/>
that the people clamor for a return <lb/>
to Democratic simplicity a <lb/>
own-way<lb/>
A Land Improvement Company <lb/>
has been organized. The Re- <lb/>
hopes it will be of great <lb/>
benefit to Greenville, and will tend <lb/>
greatly to the of our <lb/>
town. This is a step in the right <lb/>
direction. Now for a local Build- <lb/>
and Loan Association. There <lb/>
is no reason why we cannot have a <lb/>
first class local one. Can there not <lb/>
five hundred shared subscribed <lb/>
for that purpose in our town If <lb/>
we were to organize one with one <lb/>
hundred dollars per share on <lb/>
which each one would pay one <lb/>
dollar per share per month, and <lb/>
make the payments weekly instead <lb/>
of monthly, there is not a man in <lb/>
Greenville so poor that he could <lb/>
not carry one or more shares. <lb/>
Every clerk and every body else <lb/>
could easily, and we believe would, <lb/>
take stock in it. Twenty-five <lb/>
cents a week is easily made and <lb/>
saved, and it would make a good <lb/>
investment for the payer. Five <lb/>
hundred dollars per month would <lb/>
build six -right good dwellings <lb/>
in our town each year The <lb/>
land owners here ought to go into <lb/>
such an enterprise, for every <lb/>
house built or improvement <lb/>
of any kind, will enhance the value <lb/>
of real estate, and create a demand <lb/>
for building lots. In a local as- <lb/>
every dollar invested <lb/>
would be used in Greenville. <lb/>
would no expense at- <lb/>
for management as <lb/>
is in those which are not local, <lb/>
and every dollar would be used in <lb/>
improving our town. This is one <lb/>
needed here, and let it be <lb/>
organized. <lb/>
reciprocity is not even <lb/>
to be talked about by the <lb/>
until has had an <lb/>
opportunity to bamboozle the <lb/>
Ohio Farmers by telling them of <lb/>
what they owe him for clauses in <lb/>
his tariff act shutting out <lb/>
agricultural products. It <lb/>
remains to be seen whether the <lb/>
Ohio farmers will swallow this <lb/>
to the extent of voting for <lb/>
for governor. We don't <lb/>
believe they will. <lb/>
Italy was terribly shaken up <lb/>
last Thursday. A magazine con- <lb/>
two hundred and fifty tons <lb/>
of gun powder exploded. It was <lb/>
near the city of Rome and gave it <lb/>
a good shaking. Probably a few <lb/>
more such explosions would re- <lb/>
duce Italy's supply of powder so <lb/>
that it would hardly be able to <lb/>
fight the United States over a few <lb/>
like those killed at New <lb/>
Orleans. A persons were <lb/>
killed and several more were in- <lb/>

Columns have been written <lb/>

the German embargo on <lb/>

pleasant fact remains that the <lb/>
embargo i in existence and <lb/>
that no American meats can to-day <lb/>
be sold in Germany. We do not <lb/>
pretend to say that this injustice <lb/>
to American meats will not even- <lb/>
be righted by the German <lb/>
government, but it has not yet <lb/>
done it, nor has it authorized any <lb/>

but little rain-fall, abundant sun- <lb/>

weather has prevailed. <lb/>
excess of temperature and <lb/>

All around we hear of farmers de- <lb/>
creasing cotton acreage, and we are <lb/>

PROF. BLAIR IN GREENVILLE. <lb/>
Prof. F. S. Blair, of Hertford <lb/>
Alliance Lecturer for the first <lb/>
District of North Carolina, spoke in <lb/>
Greenville last Friday. There was <lb/>
a good gathering to hear him though <lb/>
it was not so large as expected, as <lb/>
his coming happened at a time when <lb/>
the farmers were very busy and <lb/>
many of could not spare <lb/>
day from their work. <lb/>
The speaker was introduced by <lb/>
Hon. E. A. Superior Court <lb/>
Clerk, who in his remarks said they <lb/>
Lad met to-day on an important <lb/>
of the great purposes <lb/>
of the Alliance, which had become <lb/>
one of the strongest organization in <lb/>
our land and increases in numbers <lb/>
every day, is to educate the people. <lb/>
want make this year a year of <lb/>
education with the Alliance, hence <lb/>
adopted this method of having <lb/>
Lecturers to visit from place to place <lb/>
and give instructions. He said they <lb/>
propose to educate the Alliance and <lb/>
the masses that they may be the <lb/>
better enabled to act with prudence <lb/>
and discretion. <lb/>
Prof. Blair, after expressing <lb/>
at kindly manner in which <lb/>
he was introduced by Mr. and <lb/>
expressing pleasure at meeting with <lb/>
so many people on this occasion, for <lb/>
he realized there were those who <lb/>
were so busy that, they could not <lb/>
come, said he wished he had the <lb/>
ability of him for whom this county <lb/>
was named, the elder Pitt, that he <lb/>
might better impress the important <lb/>
facts to be presented. He was a <lb/>
plain man and would talk to them in <lb/>
a plain, practical manner. <lb/>
To accomplish anything <lb/>
is needed, No age has felt this <lb/>
so much as the present. The <lb/>
has been sot us by those In <lb/>
most every other calling and <lb/>
and we arc forced to follow. <lb/>
These others have organized for their <lb/>
owl interest and benefit, and not <lb/>
the purpose of crushing us. Farmers <lb/>
representing as they numerically <lb/>
more than all other trades and pro- <lb/>
combined, have the best <lb/>
right to organize for their interest <lb/>
and benefit. <lb/>
There an objections to our <lb/>
by some of those outside who are not <lb/>
in a position to understand One <lb/>
of these is that the Alliance is a <lb/>
organization, and that do <lb/>
not other organizations. <lb/>
Do the other organizations mingle <lb/>
us, or invite us to participate in <lb/>
in any of their meeting V They are <lb/>
right in not doing sq. farmer <lb/>
he much out of place in a <lb/>
convention of doctors who had <lb/>
met to advance the interests of this <lb/>
profession, and both the farmers and <lb/>
the doctors would be very <lb/>
of place k lawyers <lb/>
pertaining to their <lb/>
profession. For these same reasons <lb/>
the others are not invited to our <lb/>
meetings. Still there is no secrecy <lb/>
about the Alliance that <lb/>
endangers anything qr Interest <lb/>
of is no iron <lb/>
oath which would a member <lb/>
who should divulge any secret of the <lb/>
order to be secretly annihilated. <lb/>
From such simply withdraw <lb/>
fellowship. We are not organized to <lb/>
injure the lawyer, the doctor, the <lb/>
merchant, or any others, fur <lb/>
protection, by helping our. <lb/>
selves to help all classes, <lb/>
The idea has gone out <lb/>
that intended to injure and break <lb/>
down the even some <lb/>
uninformed farmers before they get <lb/>
in the Alliance and learn. think <lb/>
w against the mer- <lb/>
this is not so, as Is soon <lb/>
learned. wish the merchant no <lb/>
harm, bu; all good. We arc only <lb/>
opposed to the combine and trust <lb/>
merchants, who <lb/>
of <lb/>
m a great Massing to the <lb/>
and we could not get along <lb/>
without them. But there are some <lb/>
who go too far in their transactions <lb/>
and use unfair means of gain. I am <lb/>
also sorry to say there arc farmers <lb/>
who try to swindle the merchants <lb/>
with whom they trade Some do so <lb/>
in this They mortgage their <lb/>
crop to the merchant and get liberal <lb/>
advancements them, then go off <lb/>
and lot tho crop take care itself, <lb/>
the merchant to get bis pay as he <lb/>
can. No class is perfect in all things <lb/>
even in the churches and the min- <lb/>
you find some men not what <lb/>
they ought to be. There are quack <lb/>
doctors as well as quack anything <lb/>
else. The man of high principle and <lb/>
true character is worthy of honor. <lb/>
To the lawyer is due much for <lb/>
noble work they do in their <lb/>
yet there are those who <lb/>
one while you the <lb/>
He used the illustration of the two <lb/>
neighbors who disputed the owner- <lb/>
ship of a cow and went to a lawyer <lb/>
with their grievance; and while one <lb/>
lay hold of each end of the cow the <lb/>
lawyer milked her for all she was <lb/>
worth. The merchants, and these <lb/>
other classes, cannot do without us, <lb/>
more taxes toward maintaining any- <lb/>
other class, yet they have the small- <lb/>
est representation in the government <lb/>
councils. <lb/>
When he reached the sub-treasury <lb/>
he said that is the point we are <lb/>
so much on now. There <lb/>
should be no objection to this. It <lb/>
has been instigated by the best men <lb/>
of our order and even by many out- <lb/>
side. Some charge that it is <lb/>
I am not much of a <lb/>
lawyer, but it seems to me that if a <lb/>
majority of the American <lb/>
want a thing they have the to <lb/>
make it constitutional; they have <lb/>
the right to change the constitution <lb/>
to meet their requirements. <lb/>
the constitution has stood as is for <lb/>
years is no reason why should <lb/>
not be changed. If majority <lb/>
want it changed they have the right <lb/>
to do it. <lb/>
Not everybody outside of the Alli- <lb/>
ore against our views. <lb/>
There are many people whose <lb/>
renders them ineligible to <lb/>
with us, yet they are with <lb/>
us in sentiment and wish us God <lb/>
speed in the good purposes for which <lb/>
we arc organized. The Alliance is n <lb/>
wonderful educating organization. <lb/>
Already many benefits have been <lb/>
derived from it. Many men have <lb/>
been led to think for and <lb/>
become more intelligent The <lb/>
should not be discouraged, but <lb/>
go forward with vigor in the work <lb/>
Hi. <lb/>
In the above, the Reflector gives <lb/>
only a brief synopsis his speech, <lb/>
which was of little more than an <lb/>
hour's length. There was no marked <lb/>
eloquence or ability about the speak <lb/>
or ho no to <lb/>
oratory, being be stated in the <lb/>
outset only a plain, practical man, <lb/>
but be said many good things and <lb/>
his hearers something to think <lb/>
about. His speech here was free <lb/>
from any spirit of or <lb/>
force that wanted to down <lb/>
everybody whose ideas did not ex- <lb/>
accord with his. He was fair <lb/>
to all classes. <lb/>
In Hie afternoon Prof. Blair <lb/>

An examination disclosed large <lb/>
bruises upon his back, thigh, left arm <lb/>
and leg. He charged Mr. Lawrence <lb/>
Carr, of Farmville township, with <lb/>
whom ho had been living for nearly <lb/>
three months, with having inflicted <lb/>
such inhuman punishment- <lb/>

Politics is the science of govern- <lb/>

We want to see good government. <lb/>
Nothing affects the farmer or any <lb/>
other class without true politics <lb/>
We have not kept pace with other <lb/>
organizations because of lack of <lb/>
cation. The farmer needs education <lb/>
as well as any professional man. He <lb/>
needs specially to understand science, <lb/>
chemistry and botany. He used on <lb/>

accumulated much wealth, yet did <lb/>
not his children an education <lb/>
because he thought his boys were <lb/>
entitled to no better chance for get- <lb/>

This was a mistaken idea. We <lb/>
ought to give our children every op- <lb/>
possible to get an <lb/>
it will of more benefit than <lb/>
anything else that could be done for <lb/>
them. The best men and leaders in <lb/>
land often come from between <lb/>
the plow handles, <lb/>
formers are principally owners of <lb/>
land. They are tillers of the soil <lb/>
and should own the soil they till. <lb/>
To own the land makes them take <lb/>
deeper interest in what is going on <lb/>
around them. Forty ago no <lb/>

foreigners and corporations, now <lb/>

During those eight years his parents <lb/>

when work was slack or his <lb/>

like a gray cloud, and the longing for a <lb/>

was her sanctuary, with which he had <lb/>
to do until she herself should <lb/>

He went out presently, shutting the <lb/>
door gently, as though afraid of disturb- <lb/>
some one. Then he turned off the <lb/>

the watchman of the square, who was <lb/>

As he opened th door his ears were <lb/>
assailed with the Brand of <lb/>

prone on her face on the floor. He <lb/>
picked her up and comforted her. The <lb/>
baby put her arms around his neck and <lb/>
nestled her wet cheek against his. As <lb/>
she did so a letter slipped from her apron <lb/>
and fell at his feet. <lb/>

Later he examined his letter. There <lb/>
were many closely written pages <lb/>
Mrs. Hart; but these he laid aside, <lb/>
pouncing on a little note the <lb/>
first he had ever had from Phyllis. It <lb/>
was a tiny sheet covered with a dozen <lb/>
