What has proven to be the long-
est session of Congress ever known
within the history of this govern-
came to an end by adjourn-
last For several
weeks past not a quorum could be
secured in either house and no
business was transacted. In
many respects the session was
of the most interesting ever held.
If after reading this of the
and seeing how he is
proven to have been of false-
hood and misrepresentation, the ed-
of the Bethel does not
feel mean and wish he had kept his
mouth shut, then lie has become so
thoroughly impregnated with
lie is insensible to all feel-
of shame or regret.
Hon. S. S. Cox, one of the ablest
of Northern Democrats, has been
renominated for Congress in his
New York district. He is
supported both Tammany
and the County Democracy, and
his election by an overwhelming ma-
is beyond a doubt.
This compliment is well deserved
by Cox, for surely there
no more able or brilliant Democrat
than he in the halls of our Nation-
legislature.

For ways that are dark, sneaking
and contemptible, commend to
the Republican party. The white
leaders of the party in this county
are now industriously circulating
among their brethren literature of
some kind. What the contents of
the papers given to the by
their white bosses are we are unable
to say, for we are yet to find the
first Democrat who has been able to
get his on any of them. The
are told not to let any one
see what is given them, to take
the papers to their homes after
reading them to lay them away in
their trunks. At last Fri-
day while one of the white bosses
was distributing his papers among
his followers, a young Dem
went up to him and asked that
ho be given some himself. re-
quest was not granted, nor could a
who had been supplied by
his white brother be induced to let
Democratic eves see
his precious possession. A party
that is reduced to such depths of
pollution and infamy that its white
leaders have to resort to the con-
practice of strewing per-
literature among its ignorant
and superstitious colored followers
which it is ashamed to be seen by
honest white men has about outlived
its usefulness, and should be
infamous oblivion. arc

To the end that the of

A Base Slander.
Not content with discrediting the
statements of the Reflector, the
Bethel Herald doubts even the
of the assertions made by a gen-
over his own signature. A
few weeks since Hon. C. Blount
published a card the Reflector
declaring in unmistakable terms
that he was a Democrat and intend-
ed to work and vote for every

rover Cleveland down to township

Blount, the last issue of the Herald
has the following very remarkable
We. learn that Mr. Blount,
Democratic representative from
Pitt the last Legislature, re-

Our neighbor seemed to forget,
in his zeal to find dissatisfaction In
the Democratic ranks, that in the
article immediately following the
above he has discredited the state-
of the because
our author was not given, and pub-
his announcement accusing
an honorable man of perjury with-

for an instant believe a word of
what the Herald said concerning
Mr. Blount, for were sure it was
not but a friend neighbor
of his in the office short-

handed him the paper and asked
his opinion of it. Mr. P. H Kittrell

no sooner had he seen the article
than he it absolutely

verdict is given in favor of the two
gentlemen first mentioned.
Ad Indecent Demagogue.
On last Tuesday Clinton was dis-
graced by the presence of a fellow
who delivered one of the most foul,
loathsome, and
harangues that it has ever been
our misfortune to hear. It fell from
the venomed lips of none other than
Moore, Republican for
the State a large.
We would not dare, or even think
of, publishing an extract from his
speech for common decency and
due respect for our readers forbid.
The gross personalities and vile
slanders in which he indulged were
base enough to bring into further
disrepute lo his own personality
and the corrupt party which he I
claims to represent. But he
even more base his party for
he lost it many votes and drove all
decent hearers square into demo
ranks We understand that
Mr. Clifton Ward, Republican can-
for the Legislature, said that
it would have for his
party if Mr. Moore had not. come
to Clinton. Further comment is
necessary for neither he nor his
talk is worth this of
able Caucasian.
Can White Men Support Them,
On one side this has been a
campaign of slander and lies.
We knew that were gift-
ed in both of these but
they are even more accomplish-
ed than we had supposed. They
have improved wonderfully of
late. They slander the true, be
cause they themselves are so
devoid of truth that they hate
an honest man. They abuse t tie
good because they are so
that they cannot
ate ability of character. They
slander and vilify the brave, be-
cause they know a brave man
will not stoop to the level of a
coward. But the crowning shame
to all their meanness is, they
slander the honored dead. It
takes the low and the vile and
the mean to do this. It takes
the personification of a fiend
incarnate. And even the devil
himself would be ashamed of
work like this. His heart is
black; but we are nowhere told
that he ever invaded the
of the tomb to find an object
upon which to vent his infernal
malice. No, old thinks
too much of himself to stoop to
deeds like this. It has been
said that some people are mean-
than the devil wants them to
be. And its the truth. The
devil seeks to deceive living,
but the sainted dead are
his control. He only does that
kind of work which he deems
essential to the accomplishment
of his ends and purposes. To
the dead, then, is not only
mean but unnecessary Hence any
servant of his who slanders the
dead is meaner and viler than
Satan wants him to be. These
are tho kind of creatures, white
men, that the Republican party
is beseeching you to support.
They have put forward men
whose chief joy is to
slander the pure and the good,
male and female, both living and
dead. No white man who has a
spark of love for himself, or his
family or his country can afford
to sanction by his ballot these
file traducers of the pure and
the good his own people.
Remember, men of
blood, when they attempt to de-
fame the character of your
low citizens, they would like-
wise slander you and your wife
and children. And if they will
do this when they are not in
power, what would they not do
if they had the reins of govern-
in their hands Heaven
knows it would be a sad day for
North Carolina if these hungry
wolves should succeed in get-
ting control of our good old
State. These radical candidates

Which is the Liar
For two months or more the
Bethel Herald has been using
every means possible to provoke
a quarrel with the Reflector,
and has lost no to
strike a, us. Some few weeks
ago we noticed what was being
said about us, and answered the
Herald. Learning that by doing
this we were bringing that paper
into notice, and good many
people were subscribing to it for
the sole purpose of reading both
sides of the controversy, and
seeing that the editor of that pa-
per either did not have sense
enough to answer the questions
we asked him or was afraid to
do so because he knew he could
not answer them truthfully with-
out damaging the cause he pro-
fessed to advocate, we decided
not to notice anything else he
said and so announced our de-
termination. Since that time
every issue of the Herald has
contained thrusts at the
tor and in addition to what has
appeared as editorial its
can assistants, whom we
too contemptible to notice,
have fired their guns at our
head. We noticed none of these
attacks, nor would we take up
space to notice the Herald now,
had not the last issue of that pa-
per overstepped the bounds of
decency and truth in its attempt
to make the Reflector appear
to its readers and the public as
having published things that
were false. We therefore notice
the of that paper once more,
regretting that it has been forced
upon us, and promise our read-
that in the future nothing it
says will provoke a reply from
us. The following appeared in
the last issue of the
The Reflector professes to have

do not. believe Mr P. said
of the kind, and have no doubt
that tho is the
of the report.
As soon as the above was read
we called of our in-
formant to it, and he, together
with three or four ether gentle-
men who were present at the
time the conversation took place,
prepared certificates with their
names attached to them
that the Reflector had
simply stated the truth. Before
the certificates were handed in
to us Mr. Parker came to town,
and being informed of this fact
the editor went out to ascertain
from his own lips what he had
said. We found Mr. Parker in
the store of Messrs, Harry Skin-
Co., and there showed
him the articles in both the Re-
and Herald, and asked
if he had been misrepresented by
us. Without hesitation Mr.
Parker said our report of the
conversation was accurate, that
he did make the statements
and he repeated them
over again, not only in our pres-
but in the presence of near-
a dozen gentlemen, among
them the one who had informed
us of the conversation with Mr.
Wilson. As the acknowledge-
of Mr. Parker is sufficient
to brand as utterly false the
charges of the Herald, we deem
it unnecessary to print the
alluded to above. Fur-
comment on the above is
necessary, and we leave our mis-
guided contemporary to the con-
it can derive from the
exposure of its falsehood.
Messrs. Sanderlin and Waddell
failed to reach Falkland last Wed-
as advertised, owing to a
break down with their team. Quite
a number of people assembled to hear
them and regretted that they were
prevented from coming. However,
the disappointment was not so great
when it was found out that speeches
would be by several of the
county candidates, also by Dr. C. J-
and by Messrs. J. D.
F. G. James and A. L. Blow.
These gentlemen made excellent
speeches and the people were well
entertained.

the fee charged is so high that tho purse
of the peasants will not enable them to
buy, or if they do buy they usually step
aboard the American bound packet in a
penniless condition. Boys commence as
soon as they arc able to work to save
as American lads do, for
Fourth of July firecrackers, but to pay
the exacted by tho government
the price demanded for their rights, their
privileges, for their freedom, the right to
go forth a free man. This is Europe.
This is but tyranny is
by only one small mouth of the
monster, whose arms and creepers have
so long held down in ignorance, in penury
in want the masses of the continent.
To evade if the passport laws
many attempt to board the packets by
stealth. It is a most hazardous under-
taking, and to be caught in the act en-
tails no end of future surveillance if not
imprisonment. Nevertheless, many do
succeed in getting off, and some of
the incidents connected with the carrying
off of islanders arc full of adventure and
excitement.
The method usually resorted to by the
captains of the packet ships which touch

Gen. Sheridan has often visited Omaha,
and face is familiar to many of our
citizens, in whose hearts ho holds a warm
place. Of all his visits to Omaha none
is more than in January,
1872, when ho and his staff came hero
to meet the Grand Duke Alexis of Russia
and suite and to go with them on a grand
hunt in the western part of the state,
which was then thickly with
buffaloes.
The buffalo hunt, which was conducted
under tho direction of Gen. Sheridan,
was a very successful affair. Tho de-
tails were executed by Buffalo Bill, who
was a great favorite w Sheridan.
During the hunt a grand war dance was
given by Spotted Tail and his Indians,
1,400 in all, who had been down
from then- agency by Buffalo Bill to en-
the visitors. On tho return from tho
hunt the grand duke Gen. Sheridan
took seats in a double seated open carriage
drawn by four splendid cavalry horses,
which w. re not much used to tho harness.
Tho driver was Bill an overland
stage driver. On the way in the grand
frequently expressed his admiration
of tho skillful manner in which Reed
handled tho reins. Sheridan informed
him that Buffalo Bill had also been a
stage driver in the Rocky mountains, and
thereupon his expressed a desire
to see him drive. Buffalo Bill was in ad-
and Sheridan shouted out to
get in here and show tho duke

prairie.
When they were approaching

time stage Bill gave the horses
a crack or two of the whip and they
struck an unusually rapid gait. They
had a light load to pull and kept
their at every jump. Bill
found it difficult to hold them. They
fairly flow over the ground. At lust they
reached a steep hill or divide, which led
down into the valley of tho

tho horses were not much on hold
back. Bill saw that it would be
to stop them. All ho do was to
keep Straight in the track and let
them go it down the hill for throe miles,
which was made, it is claimed,
in about six minutes. Every once in a
while the wheels strike a rut and
take a bound, and not touch ground
again for fifteen or twenty feet. Tho
and tho general kept rather
busy in holding their positions tin tho
seats, but when they saw that Bill was
keeping the horses straight in the road
they seemed to enjoy the dash. Bill was
unable to stop the horses until they ran
into the camp they were to obtain
a fresh relay. The grand duke said ho
didn't want any more of that kind of
driving, as ho preferred to go a little
slower. Gen. Sheridan laughed and
