meeting a want long felt. The rais-ing
of improved stock is also being
extensively engaged in. whilst the
iron anil coal developments in the
northern counties of (ioorgia, Ala-bama
and Mississippi is simply
marvelous. Gen. Maury says that
everywhere throughout the South
he found evidences of great energy
and prosperity—that ••the vast rail
road developments tire carrying
activity into every department of
industry; regions are penetrated
and developed hitherto unknown
with all their treasures," and that
it --is. always a recurring surprise
to see how progress in all commer-cial
Success keeps along these new

adds that there is not a town of

the liner grades of pine or in coin-end
embrace any
thickness. Unlike lumber, how-ever,
narrow widths are the most
costly. The straw lumber may be
ripened with the handsaw or the
buz/, saw. may be run through the
sticker for the manufacture of moul-dings,
and takes a narrow or serew
aliout as well as oak. It may be
finished with varnish or with paint,
and is susceptible to a high polish.
It is practically water and lire-proof,
being manufactured under .">00 de-grees
of heat, and wc are assured
has been boiled for some hours
without any apparent change of
structure. Its teusil strength is
greater than that of walnut or oak.
and its weight about one-fifth
greater than the former when dry.
It is made from any kind of straw,
including hemp and flax-filar—in
fact from tiny material that will
make pulp—and a ton ofstiawwill
produce 1,000 feet of boards. The
pulp is rolled into the sheets, a
number of which, corresponding
with the thickness of the lumber
desired, are placed together with a
peculiar cement, which is claimed
to be water-proof, and are then
rolled under a pressure sufficient to
amalgamate them into a solid mass.
which may be worked with a plane
if desired.

takes hundred years to grow a

The Charlotte Journal pub-lishes
ti "special" from Washing-ton
under date of August -1st as
follows:
There is quite a stir in
can circles, over the fact that ex- I
Congressman Leach, of North Car-olina,
has received about two thou-sand
dollars from the Republican
campaign committee, rendering a ,
plea that he was using il for dc
leal ing democracy in North (1110
lina, whereas it is said to have been
traced to numerous creditors.
This statement is denied by the
secretary of the Republican exec-utive
committe, as published in
yesterday's PATRIOT. It would be
curious to know how such a report
obtained currency.
A correspondent of the \\ in-si,,.,
Sentinel who has interviewed
Dr. Tyre York, of Wilkes, slates
by authority that he will not run
as an independent candidate for
Congress in the Tth district. That
means Bobbins' election beyond
peradventure.
—The applejack crop of New
Jersey will be unusually large this
year. The usual annual average
is 120,000 gallons. New York pro

large a proportion of the inhabi-tants

It is assumed that the mongrel'
izing of political parties in differ-ent
Slates means the disintegra-tion
of old parties. It would seem
that the assumption is abundantly
sustained by the facts. A glance
tit the different political combina-tions
will interest the reader Of
current politics. In Michigan tlu
North Carolina. Very recently
both Chalmers and Leach have
been denounced by Republicans
for all that is mean and vicious in
politics. How is it in Virginia?
But a little while ago the Demo
crtits denounced Parson Mass.y as
representing all that waa base and
despicable in politics. Now he is
the Democratic candidate for C011-
gressmau-at-large in that Slate.
He is now pictured by them 08 a
»giand old man,'' while the Repub-lieans,
who in the days of Demo-cratic
abuse, saw in him all that
was lovely, have discovered that
he is a '•scoundrel, a forger and a
traitor." Democrats denounce '-fu-sion'in
North Carolina and sup-port
it in Maine and Michigan.
What has become of the principles
of the two parties ! The policy of
••fusion." or coalition, which is so
unspairingiy denounced in some
Slates by both parties, is readily
embraced by either wherever it may
tend to success. In view of BUCh
glaring inconsistency and such
readiness to grasp al any means to
attain political power, is it surpris-ing
that the old party organisations
tire falling to pieces. And if the
Democratic combinations in Maine
idea that the grand old party does
business exclusively on principle is
too antiquated to be endurable. It
is money that makes the parly go,
and as no one who is not interested
in a job cares to contribute to
the maintenance of a tot of
other jobbers "this Committee tan-is
not hope to succeed if those most
directly benefited by success are
unwilling or neglect to aid in a
substantial manner." it is pretty

If Leach made any such state-ment
he ought to bored for the
simples. In the first place a court
martial is never signed by the brig
ade commander. The sentence of a
hold divided against itself has
washed its dirty linen everyday in
the week. Sunday not execpted,
and the steam from its kitchen,
like a dread miasma, has settled
down on the face of the whole land.
A nauseated public demands a
ujar with cessation of this kind of warfare,
demands it in the name of decency
and ill the interest of all classes.

Kecenl reports from Washington
seemed to indicate that Hubbell's
assessments had been so successful-ly
pushed that there was money
enough on hand to take care of all
the doubtful districts. But some
j new demand seems to have dropped
upon the Bepul'liean Congressional ,1(11|(.s||v .,,,,„
Committee, for a new circular,
headed with the names of Senators
Allison. Hale and Aldrich, Rcpre-
Mlialives Hubbell. lliscock. Kobe

Ryan, Wasbbum, Honk. Van
Horn and Tubbs, and signed by
Secretary D. B. Henderson, reads
as follows:
WASHINGTON. D.C., Aug. 15,1882.
Siu Your failure to respond to
the circular of May r>. 1882, suit
In you by this committee, is noted
with surprise. It is hoped lhal the
only reason for such a failure is
that the matter escaped jour atten-tion
owing to puss of other cares.
Great political battles cannot be
1 won in this way. This committee
cannot help to succeed in the pen-i
ding struggle ifthose most directly
benefited by success arc unwilling
or neglect to aid in a subs'antial
manner
painted for the gallery of eternal:
infamy—while this sort of work is
tlie leading industry of each faction, |
the effect of it on the general pub-lic
is similar to the influence of a
six-month*' perusal of the Beccher-
Tilton scandal on the inmates of a
girl's boarding scl 1.
Earthen jars, charged with pow-der
and various chemicals of most
offensive smell were for rly used
in vessels of warns halidgrciiados
in boarding ships. Webster des-cribes
I hem and calls them "Stink-pots."
But such vile contrivances
are no longer empty -d in any
navy. Why, Hun. will tiles'; Sghl

The latest scandal—last in aline
of hundreds—represents Mr. Conk
ling as lhe agent of monopolist try-ing
to bribe Governor Cornell to
si'-n certain bills that he could not
live. The country
does not believe that Conkliug
would, either directly or indirectly,
attempt to do so shameful a thing.
The country does no! want to be-lieve
that Governor Conn II is a
bribable man. The scandal is an
outrage on public decency, bill ii i-nol

almost numberless predecessors.
