Senator Ransom, of North Car- <lb/>
as handsome as <lb/>
ever, dropped into Washington <lb/>
this week, and as he was just from <lb/>
home he was eagerly questioned <lb/>
about the reported rise of a third <lb/>
party in his State. is <lb/>
the Senator said, in <lb/>
my there will not be a <lb/>
third party in North Carolina. <lb/>
The great body of the farmer's <lb/>
Alliance are true, consistent and <lb/>
patriotic Democrats, who will <lb/>
stand by their party. <lb/>
are a few demagogues in <lb/>
the Alliance who would persuade <lb/>
the others to embrace a third <lb/>
party, or, failure in that, will try <lb/>
to get control of the Democratic <lb/>
party for their own purposes, but <lb/>
be this as it may the <lb/>
party of North Carolina is solid <lb/>
and will This <lb/>
not tally with the reports of the <lb/>
speeches made by Col. Polk of <lb/>
the National farmer's Alliance, <lb/>

SYLVAN SOLITUDE. <lb/>
Imagine the writer gazing on the <lb/>
evanescent beauties of a sunset scene <lb/>
on the rich grassy glade of a forest <lb/>
where a hundred broad headed, <lb/>
short wide branched oaks, <lb/>
which have perhaps witnessed the <lb/>
stately march of soldiery, <lb/>
flinging their gnarled arms over a <lb/>
green, mossy, carpet, <lb/>
such as the hand of man can never <lb/>
weave. In some place they are <lb/>
with beech, holly, maple <lb/>
and other woods of various <lb/>
lions so closely as to totally intercept <lb/>
the level beams of the sinking sun, <lb/>
in others they recede each <lb/>
forming those long sweeping vistas <lb/>
in the intricacy of which the eye de- <lb/>
lights to lose itself while <lb/>
lion considers them as the paths to <lb/>
yet wilder scenes of Sylvan Solitude. <lb/>
Here the red rays shoots a broken <lb/>
discolored light that partially <lb/>
upon the shattered boughs <lb/>
and mossy trunks of the trees, and <lb/>
here they illuminate in <lb/>
patches the portions pf grassy earth <lb/>
to which made its way, Just <lb/>
beyond is a deep shady valley, and <lb/>
over cool mossy bosom a <lb/>
brooklet sings. This is the <lb/>
burden of the song. <lb/>
by lawns and gravy <lb/>
I slide by hazel covers; <lb/>
move the sweet <lb/>
That groan for happy lovers. <lb/>
I slip, I slide, I gleam, I glance. <lb/>
Among my skimming mallows,; <lb/>
I make the netted sunbeam dance <lb/>
Against my sandy shallows, <lb/>
And draw them all along, and flow <lb/>
To join the brimming river, <lb/>
For men may come and men may go <lb/>
But I go on forever. <lb/>
The brooks over <lb/>
pebbly bottoms, the wild sings <lb/>
to his chosen mate, the nodding <lb/>
daisies lift their heads, and reveal <lb/>
their golden hearts in gratitude to <lb/>
the in their short lived ex- <lb/>
speak of nature and nature's <lb/>
God. The giant oak, the king <lb/>
the forest, who has in his mighty <lb/>
strength the storms of ages stood, <lb/>
what does he tell us Docs he tell <lb/>
us that beneath his shades the red <lb/>
chief has wooed the maiden <lb/>
of the or that lie heard <lb/>
the whispered vows of the pale faced <lb/>
to whom he most dear <lb/>
on earth, and lender spoken <lb/>

stars, or the silvery sheen a mid- <lb/>
night moon, or would he say, I, too. <lb/>
have seen the brave, heroic soldier <lb/>
of the South yield up their lives in <lb/>
of this our glorious country, <lb/>
crimsoning with their hearts blood <lb/>
nature's flower carpet. Ii <lb/>
seems to the writer that unspoken <lb/>
language of these Kings as <lb/>
they stand with giant arms stretched <lb/>
in mute defiance against the cold <lb/>
gray sky would be, on ft <lb/>

the hole and while the went <lb/>

This old press has a history and is a <lb/>
relic lo be preserved at the State <lb/>

It is interesting not only for the use <lb/>
made of it but to illustrate by con- <lb/>
the great improvement made <lb/>

days when it was young. It is the <lb/>

used by him in the publication <lb/>

later in the publication of the Iredell <lb/>

destruction when raiders <lb/>

Ad Awkward Predicament. <lb/>
A New Haven letter carrier was <lb/>
his last round for the day, not long <lb/>
ago, when ho unexpectedly found him- <lb/>
self a prisoner. It was about past <lb/>
in tho evening, and he was hasten- <lb/>
from box to box, taking up their <lb/>
contents. <lb/>
file key was attached to a small but <lb/>
strong chain, which was fastened about <lb/>
his waist in such a way that it could be <lb/>
taken off only by having the key end <lb/>
of tho chain. It is customary for the <lb/>
carriers to put the key in a breast pock- <lb/>
et after opening a box, the box being <lb/>
fastened again with a spring look. <lb/>
the present case the key happened <lb/>
not to enter the man's pocket, but slid <lb/>
down the box unobserved. He <lb/>
slammed the loosely closing door. <lb/>
put on tho padlock, snapped It and <lb/>
darted <lb/>
He took two steps, and was brought <lb/>
up with a that jarred both <lb/>

Inside the box and the carrier was a <lb/>
prisoner. To remove the chain from <lb/>
his body out of the question. He <lb/>
stood still, therefore, until a young <lb/>
man happened along. To him be ex- <lb/>
plained his predicament, and in half an <lb/>
hour or so a duplicate key was brought <lb/>
from the and be was released. <lb/>

other things he been taught to <lb/>
friendly and to think of other persons <lb/>
before himself. The boy was on a <lb/>
visit in the town where the man lived. <lb/>
They met on the street, and the <lb/>
younger, recognizing the elder, prompt- <lb/>
went to his side and spoke to him in, <lb/>
his cordial, happy, yet respectful way. <lb/>
Of course the man was pleased, and <lb/>
knew that anybody would have been , <lb/>
pleased. The sentence above was the i <lb/>
outcome of it <lb/>

of this happened on the occasion of <lb/>
a fashionable city wedding. Young <lb/>
Mr. Jerome had been invited <lb/>
to be usher at the of Mr. <lb/>
and Miss Everett As soon as tho in- <lb/>
came his mother said, <lb/>
you must send Miss Everett a present <lb/>

She ordered a rare sent to <lb/>
Miss Everett, and put her son's card in <lb/>
it. When be called at o'clock he was <lb/>
shown the gifts already sent to Miss <lb/>
Everett, and directly began especially <lb/>
admiring this vase, not observing his <lb/>
own card with it <lb/>
Again and again be returned to this <lb/>
vase, praising its color and outlines, <lb/>
and saying at last that he thought it <lb/>
the prettiest of all her gifts, while <lb/>
Everett gazed at him curiously. <lb/>
When he met his mother at the din <lb/>
per table be described to her this <lb/>
and said he hoped she would get <lb/>
Everett something as handsome as that <lb/>
for his gift to her. <lb/>
I sent her t hat exclaimed <lb/>
Mrs. and the laughter that fol- <lb/>

There was nothing to be done but to <lb/>

that she took praise as a piece of <lb/>
modest, airy intended to prevent <lb/>
her from expressing her gratitude. <lb/>

event in history of that sec- <lb/>
and will attract general at- <lb/>
as much for the moral and <lb/>
lesson that it teaches as <lb/>
for the industrial progress that it <lb/>
illustrates. thirty years ago <lb/>
the ten Southern States which are <lb/>
now represented in exhibiting the <lb/>
of peace at Raleigh were <lb/>
united in the effort to vindicate by <lb/>
their title to political <lb/>
They had at that time, <lb/>
or supposed they had, but one <lb/>
commercial resource. <lb/>
Cotton wan believed to be king, <lb/>
aWl it was hoped <lb/>
that it would prove a potent factor <lb/>
in a speedy and <lb/>
termination of hostilities. <lb/>
This hope was not realized, and in <lb/>
view of the varied and wonderful <lb/>
resources that have since been <lb/>
brought to light and developed by <lb/>
the conditions that followed the <lb/>
War, what seemed at the time to <lb/>
people the calamity of defeat <lb/>
must be regarded as the crowning <lb/>
its history. To <lb/>
properly the difference be- <lb/>
-the South of that period <lb/>
and the South of tho present, it is <lb/>
only necessary to contrast the <lb/>
showing it would have made thirty <lb/>
ago had it cared to make an <lb/>
exhibit of its products, with that <lb/>
which it is making to-day. Cot- <lb/>
ton, tobacco and fine stock would <lb/>
theft constituted its chief <lb/>
exhibits, and had not the travail <lb/>
of a great revolution come upon it, <lb/>
would have still continued to rep- <lb/>
its highest commercial and <lb/>
position at to show well it <lb/>
has merited the confidence of other <lb/>
sections, and to make an <lb/>
reply to the schemers <lb/>
who have been seeking to arrest <lb/>
her progress appeals to <lb/>
cal prejudice and by such <lb/>
as the Force bill. Tho logic <lb/>
of the argument that she makes at <lb/>
Raleigh is irrefutable. To words <lb/>
she opposes achievements, to <lb/>
charges and idle assertions, <lb/>
lute and splendid results. Is she <lb/>
benighted or behind tho age <lb/>
The products of her mills and <lb/>
of her mines and furnaces <lb/>
are a sufficient reply, a reply that <lb/>
makes the manufacturer and the <lb/>
monopolist of other sections feel, <lb/>
exceedingly <lb/>
comfortable. Is the colored race <lb/>
oppressed and terrorized The <lb/>
colored race answers for itself in <lb/>
the exhibits which it makes at its <lb/>
Southern Exposition and in the <lb/>
property and wealth which it is <lb/>
accumulating in all parts of the <lb/>
South. Tyrants and oppressors <lb/>
should be made of sterner stuff <lb/>
than the men who are thus help <lb/>
the freedmen up to a higher <lb/>
level and teaching them how to <lb/>
reach the full stature of manhood. <lb/>
There is not much solace or en- <lb/>
in the Raleigh expo- <lb/>
far disturbers of the nation- <lb/>
tranquility. The evidence that <lb/>
it furnishes strikes a death blow <lb/>
to their malice. It proves that <lb/>
the heart and soul of the South are <lb/>
wholly enlisted in the pursuits of <lb/>
peace, and that her population, <lb/>
white and black, are working <lb/>
shoulder to shoulder for the gen- <lb/>
advancement. All they ask <lb/>
is to be permitted to carry out <lb/>
their own fortunes in peace. <lb/>

When Mr. Harrison determined <lb/>
upon doing the act, in the <lb/>

Greenville. It witnessed something <lb/>
entirely new for our <lb/>
opening of a tobacco market. In- <lb/>
in it was at its highest and all <lb/>
through the day throngs of people <lb/>
gathered around the handsome new <lb/>
warehouse. All seemed to <lb/>
what it meant for Greenville, and <lb/>
were bent on making the opening <lb/>
break a grand success. The eve- <lb/>
before the break farmers began <lb/>
bringing in their tobacco and long <lb/>
before the hour of sale Thursday <lb/>
morning all the available space in <lb/>
the large warehouse was packed full <lb/>
the golden weed and scores of <lb/>
loaded carts and wagons stood out- <lb/>
side awaiting their turn to drive in. <lb/>
Enough tobacco came in first day <lb/>
to continue the breaks days. <lb/>
Pitt county already being famous <lb/>
for her line tobacco it was expected <lb/>
a large number of buyers would be <lb/>
here to get a chance at some it. <lb/>

The first load of tobacco for the <lb/>

the sales the second day and kept up <lb/>
his end of the racket in good order. <lb/>
Mr. of the firm of Bullock <lb/>

buying extensively at the opening <lb/>
break. <lb/>
C. W. put up lye pounds <lb/>
Friday to be sold for church; it <lb/>
was bid off by Col. Sugg for <lb/>

The books showed that fifty seven <lb/>
different farmers sold tobacco the <lb/>

The ladies took much interest in <lb/>
breaks, numbers of them going <lb/>
out every day. The second day the <lb/>
auctioneer knocked off one lot of to- <lb/>
to Miss King. <lb/>
We made many inquiries among <lb/>
the farmers during and after the <lb/>
sales and all with one exception de- <lb/>
themselves pleased the <lb/>
prices their tobacco brought. <lb/>
Andrew Joyner told the <lb/>
tor that he had just been to several <lb/>
Other markets and the prices <lb/>
brought here showed that Greenville <lb/>
was up to any of them and was <lb/>
as good a market to sell on. <lb/>

second day he was a buyer. Jenkins <lb/>
don't get left every time, <lb/>
when it down to talking. <lb/>
After all the sales of the first day <lb/>
were over several parties lifted Col. <lb/>
Sugg up on a tobacco hogshead and <lb/>
demanded that ho give them a <lb/>
speech. We did not hear this but <lb/>
learned that he for Pitt <lb/>

a lightning speed that it would keep <lb/>
kinks in your cars to try to keep up <lb/>
with him. Neal is a clever fellow, <lb/>
and everybody he met froze right to <lb/>
him. <lb/>
After the floor had Ween gone over <lb/>
