a few striking illustrations
which will enforce the lessons I am
seeking to emphasize, better than
any general of them
could do.
We have here a building

of beauty and bravery to which

From what has already been said
I draw two important lessons which
I wish to emphasize. first is
we live for good or evil. There is
such thing in this life is stand-
still. cannot, if would,
shut ourselves up and live entirely
to ourselves. Day by day and year
by year we are influencing the lives
of those with whom we come in
contact and so they ours. While
it is true that we are all largely
creatures of circumstances it is also
true that some one has much to do
with making these circumstances;
and that they must be held
in this life and in the life to
come the circumstances and in-
by which they surrounded
us. so are we to be held re-
the sight of God and
for the circumstances in-
by which we
others.
The second lesson which I wish lo
emphasize grows naturally out of
the first and it is this, we are deep-
interested each If we
influence or effect each other's lives
we. are interested each other.
Yea Society is interested,

There is a subdued, but intense and
bitter feeling existing, not in all of

against public schools, and neigh-
broils and fends are
not uncommon.
It was proposed by one in
our last Legislature to so change
the law as to have one Committees
man for each school district, instead
or three. We think it would have
been better this change had been
adopted. It would bate saved
teachers a good deal o time and
trouble. The applicant a school
goes to see Mr. A-, a Committee-
man. He refers him to Mr. B. and

ever they may say about it. He
goes lo see Mr. B. lie not at

finally winds up by pronouncing, in
a very emphatic manner, her
anathemas upon it, or he may

Nor e'er will her bright face be seen
For God, the Father hath seen fit
To call from us our friend.
And, oh how sadly we miss her,
But feel e'er now our loss her gain,
For she with Jesus happy it,
And no grief, or toll, or pain
Oh when they all together meet,

IA GALA DAY AT MT. PLEASANT.
Large Din-
of
Order
As previously announced Sun
day School at Mt. Pleasant held its
annual picnic on last Friday. At an
early hour, carriages, buggies
wagons began to arrive with
the prettiest, sweetest and most
lovely girls we have seen in . long
time. The counties of Beaufort,
Martin, Edgecombe and Greene were
handsomely represented. The beau-
white in which the belles were
attired made them exceedingly be-
witching and fascinating.
Promptly at o'clock the choir,
led by Miss Claudia Spain, the beau-
and attractive daughter of S. H. j
Spain, Esq., called the crowd
the house. The music as pealed
forth from the organ was simply
grand and heaven inspiring. At the
conclusion of the song Mr. L. A.
Mayo, the Superintendent of the
school, delivered a short, pointed
and able historical address, reciting
the origin of the school and the
names of the founders and those who
have ever been its The
remarks were timely, very
ate and were well received. At the
conclusion the remarks, Mr. Mayo

The address was one of the ablest
most practical we have heard in
many a day. He got out of the old
ruts and made a speech that will
have its effect for year to come.
The speaker was truly eloquent and
his flights of oratory captured the
audience and held the crowd for fifty
five minutes. Such addresses arc
needed in every part of the Slate.
Beaufort county has an honored son
in person of the speaker.
At the conclusion of the address
the choir sang with much

The afternoon was spent in riding,
walking, selling and courting. You
will hear a good report from the work
begun at the picnic.
The entire day was marked by the
best order, decorum and good will.

This brand has been used in Pitt county for years and never fails to give
faction. It is a line Tobacco Fertilizer, and is sold cheap enough to be used under

So much of this Guano has been sold that every farmer knows what it will
