It is proposed to make it as near-
as possible a direct line

thence to Charleston, thus short-

will open up a vast section of
country and not come directly in
competition with any existing

between Norfolk and Wilmington,
lying in eastern North Carolina
and between Wilmington and
Charleston in South Carolina

make it what it ought to be and
what it is capable of being. Hun-

land in country could thus

They have issued a neat pros-
of the road which sets forth
very clearly the resources of the
counties and entire section
through which the road is to pass,
and from this it looks as if the
local traffic of the road ought to be
made a paying business outside
of the through freight and travel.
It looks as if this road will beyond
doubt be built at an date,
and we are glad that there is a
strong probability of its coming
by Greenville. To avoid heavy-
bridging over the Roan-
and Tar it will have to
go as far west as here, and at the
same time it will not be but very
little out of a direct sin-
hope the road will be

folly the growth, resources, and

been marvelous, and shows what
push, pluck, energy and capital
will do. There are iron furnaces
and manufacturing establishments
of almost every kind. In fact it is
a thorough going place. It would
pay Greenville to develop such a
spirit of enterprise as is showing
itself in Basic City.

that in some way they had been

it had grown better and was soon out

sick fir two or three days. It was

in time next season's sales. Sat-
afternoon he talked among
some the leading farmers who
were in town and in a short while
had several hundred dollars sub-
scribed for the warehouse, Mr.
is a man of pluck and energy, and
with him to push this enterprise it is
expected to go forward to success.
Of course when one warehouse is
built others will and yet
expect to see Greenville a great to-
market.

toes are promising.
Mr. W. S. Brooks, from southeast
Greenville township, could not give
altogether as good report from his
section, but said with favorable
weather this week the farmers could
replant and get a good stand of cot-
ton and corn.
Mr. John Fleming, of upper
township, gave a still less fa-
report from his neighbor-
hood. Many acres of corn that had
been killed by the frost and some
cotton planted in dry weather and
failed to come up in time to
the cold had to be plowed up and re-
planted. He hoped with good sea-
sons this trouble could be overcome
in a great measure.

Last Thursday it was talked
around among some of the colored
people, and a few of the white people
heard it, that the night before Red-
Blow, a young colored man of
this town, had fallen down on an
open and cut himself quite
No special attention was
paid to the matter outside, it being
thought only an accident that would
not amount to much.
But on Friday morning the affair
took a different turn. The wounded
man died about o'clock, and it be-
to be talked that he did not re-
the wound in the manner first
stated but that he had been stabbed
in a gambling room. Inquiries be-
at once as to who was with him
Wednesday night. It was found out
that George Dudley and Peter Clark
had been with him and a warrant
was issued for their arrest. A game
of base ball between Wilson and
Greenville colored clubs was going
on at the time up
and it was known that Dudley and
Clark were both at the game, the
latter being a player with the Green-,
ville club. While the warrant was
being issued some one knowing of it
and of Dudley's connection with the
cutting slipped up to the base ball
ground and told him what was going
on down town and that he had best
leave. So when Deputy Sheriff King
got up there he found only Clark to
arrest. Clark was placed in jail and
a search at once began for Dudley,
both white and colored engaging In
it. A little later a warrant was
issued for James May, who was
rested placed in jail. In the

to give any results of the Closing
services of the meeting conducted by
Morton in Hie Opera House.
There were several professions at the
and when those desiring to
unite any church were requested
to come quite a number of
persons presented themselves, two of
which united the Presbyterian
church, the night before,
increasing the total membership to
nine. were applicants for
membership in the Baptist,
dist, and Catholic Church-
es. It was regretted that the meet-
closed at a time when there was
so much interest, but an appoint-
had been made elsewhere for
Dr Morton which he had to fill.
Sunday morning the doors of the
Baptist were opened and
nine persons presented themselves as
candidates for baptism, which
will be administered at the
prayer meeting services to-night.
Another member was received
by restoration at the night service.
Sunday the doors of the
Methodist Church were opened and
four persons presented themselves
who were baptized and received into
the full fellowship of that church.
It is believed there are others who
will unite with the two last mentions
ed churches and the doors of the
Baptist again opened
to-night, giving any who may wish
to join an opportunity to do so.

Be Very Much More Control Ora
the Army Than Over the Nary.
The president of the United States ts
made by the constitution commander-
of tho army and navy.
enough, his control over the two
branches of the service differs material-
So far as the navy is concerned ho
has comparatively little executive
but his power in army matters
is very great
For example, he might, if the senate
did not object, take any fresh graduate
from West and him the
general of the army. In fact, with this
condition granted, he can turn Gen.
Schofield out of his place of command,
drop him from the list altogether, and
replace with he
chooses. Indeed, more, implying no
contradiction from tho upper house in
congress, he has to take any
private in the army, and make him the
general.
The law in this regard seems to be a
curious one, inasmuch as no like power
is vested in the president with regard
to tho navy. The president, however
willing tho might be, could not
a sailor in tho service and make
him admiral. Neither could he pro-
mote a midshipman just of
to such a position. Nor would it
be possible for him to advance to the
I dignity even a captain, for it Is only tho
senior commodore on the regular list
j who can legally become an admiral,
and throughout the entire navy pro-
motions must follow this invariable rule
of seniority.
That is one advantage possessed by
the navy over the army. A midship-
man entering the service at a given ago
has the absolute and comforting
that, with reasonably good con-
duct, he must at a certain time
in the future, supposing that he
at a definite rank. If lie is grad-
wit h high rank in his class he
may count upon being at tho head of
the service before ho is retired, as if it
were a mere matter of mathematical
calculation.
On tho other hand, after the grade
of colonel has been readied, appoint-
are made by the of tho
president, only restricted by tho sen-
was made a
brigadier general over the heads of a
considerable number of those atop of

chief turns things about as
he desires beyond tho rank of tho
. though lie usually picks out for

best qualified for command. But it
will be seen that tho young soldier in
I the line has no certainty to anticipate
i such as is held by tho junior naval
lieutenant from the start
It has been maintained in contention
; that has been carried as far as tho

When Alabama was a territory its
capital was at St Stephens, in Wash-

framed the constitution under which it
was admitted into the Union was held
in where the first legislature
met In October, 1819, and the first gov-
was inaugurated. be-

The of Chinese Speech.
There is in China not only an
association music and
poetical speech, but also between music
and speech generally. The Chinese
being a monosyllabic language, it de-
pends to a great extent upon musical
intonation to convey meaning. If yon
listen to the conversation of your Chi-
laundrymen you will discover that
their ordinary speech is almost as
cal as the recitative of tho Italian
opera.
Many words in the Chinese language
take from to six different mean-
according to intonation. These
intonations, as Dr. S. Wells Williams
forcibly urges, have to do
with accents or They
are distinctly musical, and it is much
to regretted that Dr. Williams was
unable, for obvious want of the musical
talent, to study them from a musical
point of view, as it is all but impossible
to convey a clear understanding of
their nature by description.
