Main Street, Lincolnton, N. C. New York Office, 551, TXT VV (September 14 Yesterday was eulogy day in Congress in the Senate Mr. Quay, Mr. Barbour, Mr.

Piumb, Mr. Daniel, aud a nnmber Df others paid el oquent and touching tributes to the memory of J. Randall, after which, as a mark of respect, an adjournment took place in the House the journal of Tuesday last was unanimously passed, together with that of the three following days, all of the Democrats voting in the affirmative; the rest of the session was occupied in the delivery of eulogies to the memory of the late Senator James B. Beck, ot Kentucky Mr. Breckinridge described iu beautiful language the character and ability of the dead Senator, and he was followed by a number other members, all of whom delivered most appropriate addresses an adjournment followed the deliv ery of the eulogies.

(September 16-) Business on the calendar was considered for an hour in the Senate yesterday, after which the conference report on the railroad land forfeiture bill was considered until adjournment in the House Mr. McKinley reported back the tariff bill with Senate amendments, with recommendation that they be non concurred in, aud at the same time he reported a resolution from the committee on rules for the immedin ate consideration of the bill the resolution gave rise to a lengthened discussion in opposition thereto, after which the amendments were non-concurred in by a vote of 120 to 82 the rest of the session was consumed in the discussion of a resolution offered by Mr. Enloe, of Tennessee, repudiating ancl con" detuning the speech oi Mr. Kennedy, reflecting upon the character and integrity of the Senate as a body. The ways and means committee of the House yesterday rushed through the consideration of the remaining Senate amendments to ibe tariff bill, aud made report to the House non-concurrence was recommended in every case Mr.

McKinley's special rule for the consideration of the bill and amend merits was adopted. The speech of Mr. Kennedy, of Ohio, attacking the Senate and Senator Qaay, which created such a sensation when delivered, ten days ago, appeared in the Record with the language some what modified, but still of an offens si ve character. Exchange of Cotton Seed For Meal. Ought I to exchange my seed with the oil mill, getting meal in return at the rate of one ton of meal for two tons of seed Emphatical ly no, if the meal is not returned to the land either as a mixed fertilizer, or as manure after passing through stock.

Two tons of seed contain forty-six pounds phosphoric acid, 120 pounds ammonia, and forty, eight poands of potash, valued at $20.30, giving the same value as to commercial fertilizers the past seai son. One tou of m-al contains fifty-six phosphoric acid, 172 pounds of ammonia and thirty-two pounds ot potash, valued at $26.76. I give to the oil mill men materials worth $20.30 and they give me in return materials worth S26.76. I make $6.46 by the transaction. This is no fanciful sketch, but actual fact.

Are the oil mill men not fools to give me this $6.46 Oh no, they save the oil, which I do not want (as it contains no fertilizing ingre. dients), and sell it. They have in addition the bulls from the seed which are used for fuel under the engine boilers or for bedding. H. B.

Battle, Experiment Station, Hal. eigh. The Gospel Truth. Extract from the Platform of the Indiana Democracy. We are rejoiced at tbo evidences of an awakening of the farmers of the couutry to the necessity for or ganized efforts to better their own conditiou and protect themselves agaiust unjust legislation and op-preaive administration.

We invite attention to the fact that the farmers are demandingg in substance the same measures of relief which the Democratic party has been advocating for years, but has not had the power to enact, and that the surest and speediest way of obtaining this relief is. to. restore the Democracy to power in every depart ment of the government.

Office, Raleigh, N. C- During th week ending Saturday, September 13, 1890, the rem. perature has been considerably above the normal which has been favorable for the maturing of crops. The earlier part of the week was generally clear with bot little rain, the latter part cloudy with frequent showers, not sufficient to do much injury except in a few counties as Richmond, Mecklenburg and Rowan. Farmers are chiefly employed in picking cotton and cuiing the finest crop of tobacco produced in this State for many years.

Fodder has been nearly all saved; Wheat land is being prepared and the sowing of oats has corn im need. Eastern District TLe temperature has been above the average and the rain-fall below except in a few Southern counties, as Pender, Brunswick. The weather has been generally favorable for saving fodder and picking cotton. Rust still reported in a few places. Central District.

Farmers are very busy curing tobacco and picking cotton, for which the weathi er has been very favorable. Tco much rain has fallen in Richmond coun retarding the work there. Fodder is nearly all saved. Wheat laDd is being broken and oats sowed. Westebn District.

Too much rain has fallen in some of trreioutheast-ern counties of this district, Meek, lenburg, Rowan, etc, damaging cotton to some extent. In other parts the weather has beeu very favorable for picking cotton, caring tobacco and saving fodder. Splen did crops of corn in this district. Everybody VTelRlied. It would astonish many of us sometimes, if we could know what our ueighbors think of us.

Every man has some kind of a standing in the community where he lives, and he is sized up a great deal cl oser than he has any idea of. You may set it down as a fact that there isn't a welve-y ear-old boy in your neighborhood who hasn't got his opinion of you, and he wouldn't: be slow about expressing it either, if a stranger should ask him for it. Evs ery man is always making character, whether he is doing auytbing else or not. Ex. Advertise in the Ooubieb.

Gameron, former Govs ernor of Virginia, and who has been a Republican a number of years has renounced his allegiance to that party. Hear what be has to say "Iha been taught by the events of eighteen months past, that men of our antecedents and connections cau no longer with self-respect lend our voices, our votes, or even the negative support of silence, to the Re ublican party as it is expounded by the organization in this State, or as it is administered by the present executive and Legislative departments of the United States government. "The Republican party preserves no longer the semblance of speaking for the entire bases its claim 8 to supremacy on sectional predjudices and sectional interfered, pure and simple! Not only so, but the directors of its policy have not hesitated, in the attains ment ot their ends, to prostitute the j. lighted faith of the party, in sight of all the world, and to re-nownceJn their Congressional en, actinentsl the promises solemnly made in the Chicago platform. ''Their objects was and is to force the lighting as between a solid North and a solid South, and at the same time to use the small contingent of Southern Repubiicaus in Congress to minimize the power of the South by such a polical abomination as the Lodge bill, and by so framing a tariff law (uuder pretect of protection of American labor and Amer oan products,) so as to increase every burden of the customs upon the weaker section, and as to force, in all its shameless en- equality, the revenue tax upon the tobacco of Virgiuia, Carolina, Tennessee, Kentucky, Missouri, Maryland aud Florida." PLAN TO STORE 2,000,000 ijai.es of cotton.

A Montgomery, special of Saturday to the Atlanta Constitution sa At the last meeting of the National Farmers' Alliance, the mat ter of arranging some plan by which the cotton praducers could hold their crop for better prices, was referred to the Cotton Corn, mittee with power to jnake any arrangement possible to effect this end. The committee at once opened communication with European capitalists, which has now in progress several mouths, and it is given out in New York today that arrangements have been at last perfected. A correspondent of the Atlanta Journal sayt-: The National Alliauce has achieved a gi eat work. The cotton com-mittee of the National body has completed arrangements with Eu ropan capitalists to advance 32 per bale ou 2,000,000 bales of American cotton to be stored in the warehouses of the South for a period of oue ytar, allowing the farmer to dispose ot the cotton any time duiing the year should the price advance to his satisfaction The European syndicate -which advances this money on the cotton will charge 4 per cent, per annum in thtir interest, aud will be fully secured, on which the advance is made. Ihee arrangements mean that the farmer will have the use of $04,000,000 and at the same time keep 2,000,000 bales of cotton oat CAR LOAD BINdERS, MOWERS, and RAKES at low prices.

It was our privilege a few days ago to pay a visit to the mineral spring known as Wilson's, now owned by Miss Dovie Jetton.

I submit a few words descriptive of the spring and its surroundings in the hope that it may prove of iu terest to your readers. This spring is situated about 15 miles east of Lincoluton and two miles southwest of Triangle. One mile from Triangle on the road leading to Lincolnton is a left hand which traveled a mile brings us to the spring, one hundred and fifty yards before we arrive at the fording of Seagle's Creek. A visitor is at once struck with the location ot the spring. Approaching it from the creek you ascend a hill until you are at an elevation of thirty or for- ty feet above the creek before you come to the spring in a level beautifully shaded spot by the roadside.

The spring is large, boldNlooking about two feet square, walled with granite, the water in it a foot deep but the water runs from it very timidly and after, trickling off about fifty feet again sinks into the ground. The water is strongly impregnated with sulphur and there are yellow deposits on the rocks in the spring which have the appear- auce of sulphur. There has never been a boarding house or health retort at this place but the water has been frequently used with good effect. The variety of trees and vegetation growing around this spring is also worthy of notice, the woodman's axe has kindly spared the original forest in a circle from ten to fifteen feet around the spring and along the streamlet that flows from it. In this area and down the stream a distance ot thirty feet, observing that almost every tree was a different kind from the others forming the little group, we made a list of therq as follows, some of which were small Mulberry, persimmon, wild cherry, poplar, red oak, birch, sycamore, sumac, sassafras, hickory, asb, pine, chinquapin, white oak, dogwood, cedar, walnut, crab apple, and one grape vine.

Observing the great variety of wild flowers, grasses, luxuriantly growing around the spring and in the oasis below, the writer was tempted to gather a wild boquet and on actual count was surpiised to find it composed of 24 different kinds of vegetation, all gathered in the same space, but our familiarity with them was not sufficient to em able us to submit a list of their uames. N. Congress Outlines, (Wilmington StarSept. 11.) The consideration of the tariff bill was closed in the Senate yesterday, after six hours discossion in which Messrs. Hoar, Hiscock, and Jones represented the Republican side, and Messrs.

Turpse, Vest and Vauce that of the Democratic; Mr. His cock, in his speech, made a vituperative attack on the Democratic Senators and the Democratic party, whi was replied to in a very effective way by Mr. Vest Mr. Vance got in some very strong poiuts against the bill, and indulged in some ludicrous remarks, which caused much laughter the debate beibg closed, a vote was taken on the passage of the bill, which re suited yeas 40, nays 29, a strict party vote six pairs were announced in the House the session was principally occupied iu efforts to obtain a quorum, aud the only thing done was the reading of the journal this, however, failed of approval, no quorum being in sight,.
