President Cleveland has called
an extra session of Congress to
meet on the 7th of August. This
is earlier than many bad expected
and it is said that the conclusion
to call it this early was not reach-
ed until a few days ago. The ex
stringency of the money
market and tho threatened
panic hastened his action.
Mr. Cleveland has been very
since the suspension of tho
free coinage of silver in India by
British government and
fully persuaded tho present
threatening aspect to business
justified the issuing of the
call for the assembling of
Congress. The people may
rest assured that the present ad-
ministration will use every en-
to obviate the troubles
that are liable to come upon us in
consequence of the bad laws
which are upon OUT statute books
and which Mr. Cleveland says
most be executed they are
repealed. He and Mr.
have been much in consultation
recently in reference to the
question and it is believed
that they have a plan already ma
to submit to Congress when
it assembles that will give the de-
sired relief. It is thought that the
repeal or at least the suspension
of the Sherman silver law will
be a necessity until some measure
may put in operation that will
change almost instantly the
system of this government.
The people are to be
ed just now upon tho fact that
they have such statesmen as
President Cleveland and Secretary
at the But for this
fears serious trouble would he
well founded.
The investigations that have
followed the failure of the Bank
of New Hanover show the officers
to be entirely responsible for
wrecking the institution. It has
come to light that the officers and
directors and their relatives ab-
more than of the
funds of the bank. One firm
rowed on a mortgage
covering property that is not
worth Another party ob
without giving
any security whatever, and in
other instances large sums were
put out very carelessly. It is not
thought that the bank will
able to pay more than or
cents on the dollar. If all that is
being made public is true, those
in charge of the Bank of New
Hanover are just as of rob
bing depositors, and should be
punished just as severely, as were
Cross and White, the notorious
bank wreckers of a few
years ago. This way of taking
the people's money on deposit
and then stealing it should be
put a stop to, and those who steal
it should be imprisoned just like
any other thief who is caught.
The Raleigh morning papers
have effected tho consolidation
that has been in contemplation
for several weeks, and the result
is a sheet bearing the
head Observer Chronicle,
which serves as a reminder of the
three morning papers that have
in late years existed there- Capt.

Governor of Illinois,
has pardoned out of the
the anarchists that were con-
at the riot. He
goes farther and sharp-
the court and judge in which
they were convicted. His con-
duct is very much condemned,
and it seems justly so. He is ac-
of having been bribed to do
this before his by the
votes of the Socialist party. His
action will probably turn the
State over to the Republicans
again at the next election. It is
claimed that he is a foreigner
himself and that there is no record
that he has ever been naturalized.
His father was a Prussian and in
consequence his sympathies are
very much with these foreigners.
It is unfortunate for the Demo-
party of this State that they
did not select a better for
Governor, and by so doing
able to retain what gained in
the past election.
THE ASSEMBLY.
WASHINGTON LETTER.
our Regular
Washington D-C-, July 1893.
Both ends of the capitol build-
are in the hands of a small
army of workmen who are putting
everything in shipshape for the
extra session of Congress.
Everything is being overhauled
and freshened up or renewed as
the of the case may de-
Although the probability
of President Cleveland making
an earlier date for the extra
than September is regarded
as exceedingly slim it was
thought best to rush the work at
the capitol so that everything
would be ready for Congress to
assemble as early as tho latter
part of July in case the President
should change his mind.
Speaking of calling the extra
session of Congress earlier than
September, a gentleman who had
a long conversation with the
President on the subject says
President thinks, and I.
agree with him, that instead of
being a reason for earlier
the action of the Govern-
of Great Britain in stopping
the coinage of silver on
account in India, furnishes one of
the strongest reasons against an
earlier session. Every one has
some sort of an idea of what will
be the result of cutting off with a
stroke of the pen the market for
about one-third of the world's
but only time can show
what that result will be.

When old Sol reaches the sum-
mer solstice so many of his rays
strike every square inch of our
corporal surface that we are in-
to look around for a more
congenial clime- The question
where to go naturally arises and
until late years gave us some
trouble to decide. The first
pulse now, however, is to go

and comfort More-
head City, the Summer Capital
not alone of North Carolina but
of the whole South.
Following this inclination we
found ourselves during last week
at this most delightful of all tho
resorts on our coast.
The teachers of North Carolina
after trying various places have
made this their summer home.
They have a handsome building
of their own, nicely fitted up
with all the modern conveniences
of an Assembly room. In this
they hold their sessions daily and
nightly. This was the last week
of the session and there were so
many good things that space will
forbid our writing specifically of
any one exercise. It was very
evident that the best had been
saved for the last and no one who
was present at the musical con-
test on Tuesday night, Dr. Smith's
lecture on Thursday night, and
the grand musical concert on Fri-
day night, could fail to see that
in these meetings of tho teachers
at Morehead are intellectual feasts
and ought to attract a
large part of North Carolina to
these meetings. Owing to the
fact that a large party of the
teachers are to go to the World's
Fair the attendance was not so
large as usual, but
nothing in saying that the As-
never had a more pleasant
or satisfactory meeting. This
was due in a very large measure
to the accommodations received
at the hands of Mr. B. L- Perry
the princely proprietor of the
Atlantic hotel- No man who has
run this hotel since the teachers
have been meeting there has ever
been so careful, so painstaking,
so courteous, so untiring in his
efforts to give every comfort to
every teacher that would make
his Stay the most pleasant of his
life, and no man has ever been so
universally commended for this-
During the entire week we heard

Investigation has brought out
the fact that many men who are
drawing disability pensions
living in Soldiers Homes without
cost to themselves and are earn
regular wages for the per-
of manual labor. Fur-

draw pensions under the act of

is evident that the whole system
of pension remarked a
who was himself a
Union soldier, faulty and in
need of a thorough revision, but
I have serious doubts as to the
courage of Congress to make that
revision. Pensions have been
used as capital so long by
that the people at large
will have to educated on the
subject before the pressure upon
Congress becomes strong enough
to compel action. The
nary steps in this educational
work are being taken by the ad-
ministration in its endeavors to
clear the roll of illegal pension-
Later, the revision of tho
laws will come answer to a
public demand in which thous-
ands of old soldiers will join, in-
deed, many of them have already
done so- As soon as pensions
are entirely divorced from
politics justice will be done,
alike to tho taxpayer and the old
Among the fraudulent pension-
whose dropping from the roll
was officially approved this week
were eleven men shown by the
records of the War Department
to have been deserters and who
are still deserters at large, one

President Cleveland was asked
by the committee in charge of the
preparations for the celebration
of the centennial of the laying of
the corner stone of the U- S- Cap-
building to deliver tho
oration upon that occasion,

have his hands full about the

that he could not comply with
their request, but would gladly
make a short speech introducing
the man they selected to deliver
the oration.
To-day closes the fiscal year,
and while the financial condition
of the Government is not all
that could be asked for it is very
much better than there was any
good reason six months ago, for
expecting that it would be at this
time. In fact there wore
reasons six months ago for
the fear that, instead the com-
cash balance on hand,
the administration would have to
begin the new year with a deficit.
the teachers are largely indebted
for the success of these meetings
and he was assured of tho fact

heart- But we must turn aside
from this most subject
upon which to write, and say
something in reference to the
many attractions in around

lead so many people to More-
head.
First and foremost of these in-
for this season is the
Management of the Atlantic Ho-
tel. Too often it is the case that
the accommodations and the fare
at this and other similar places
are given only for the of
money making- No such charge
can be made in reference to More-
heed this season. There is order
and system in everything. The
comfort pleasure of every
guest is carefully looked to by
every person in the management,
and no praise can be too high for
the Proprietor, Mr. B. L. Perry.
A trip down there will convince
you that this is not fulsome flat-
tery.
Hardly second in importance
to make a stay pleasant is the
music and the opportunity for
dancing. Orchestra
from Augusta, Ga., furnishes the
music and it is conceded on all
hands that it is superior to any
former seasons at Morehead. It
is useless to say that the ball
room is the most commodious in
the south. Every lover of the
dance knows this, and those who
participated in the
every night last week fully
realized it. Greenville was well
represented along this line. The
germ an Thursday night was in
honor of Miss Estelle Williams of
our town, and we detract nothing
from the beauty, charms, grace
and elegant ease of the ladies
participating when we say she
excelled in each. H you will
dance go to Morehead and you
can enjoy it to your hearts con-
tent-
No one who loves tho surf can
afford not to go there. Every day
from o'clock until night the beach
is gay with hundreds looking
on enjoying this most de-
pleasure. We had the
honor of being one of a party of
in a sail given to the surf com-

of Tarboro by Mr. H. A. Lath-
am of the Washington Gazette.
Mrs. Wiggins of Wilson, and
Mrs. of Greenville were
chaperons of the party. All
voted H. A. Latham as a first-
class success in giving sails as he
has been in all his undertakings.
The fine opportunities for fish-
come in for their share of
credit in making Morehead the
most desirable place to spend the
summer. We noticed parties com-
from a single -morning's fish-1
with as high as or of I

good day for fishing either.

brought it about was all one sided-
We could have repealed the Sher-

grave one, but the present

little while, and with time to

much easier- I am neither

there was no occasion for hurry

Lay Your Plans.
We have turned the half mile
and started the last half of the
year now. and many of the business
men arc already casting looks ahead to
the fall work. In making plans no one
should overlook the importance of
liberal advertising- Already some have
intimated to the that they
will want a large space during the fall,
and those who to secure special
positions should not delay about
contracts. The fall business is
going to be good the man who doc
the hustling a is the one who
will get the trade. Every man or Iran
to sell any goods ought to
have advertisement.

The Encampment.
The next thing that will demand gen-
re attention is the encampment of the
first second regiments of the State
Guard which begins next Thursday,
13th. The Pitt County Rifles have not
received their uniforms yet but ex-
them to arrive next Monday. The
company will drill and put in a good
day's work Wednesday of next week.
They expect to go to camp in good
shape.
Cotton Crop.
Farmers are reporting the cotton crop
the poorest for a number of years. Mr.
B. B. Cotten and Mr. J. R. Warren,
both of the Falkland section, say the
cotton crop up that way is exceptionally
poor. Mr. R. M. Spier, of
says that between his house and Green-
ville it is as poor as he ever noticed.
all the years he ha; been living at
his place lie has not had as sorry a pros-
for a crop as this year. Mr.
J. J. Bawls, of Carolina, says that,
around him the farmers did not plant
much cotton and what they have is
very sorry. From all over the county
there is about the same report. Other
crops are doing very well but the cotton
outlook Is bad. Good seasons from now
on would improve It

Mrs. V. L. Pendleton.
It is With much regret that we learn
that Mrs. V. L. Pendleton, who has
taught the female school here for the
year, will leave us this fall. She
has been offered and has accepted
admirable position in Institute,
Va . and will be present at the opening
of next session. Mrs. Pendleton
has given entire satisfaction here and j
we believe the whole town will regret
very much that she has been induced ,
by a superior offer to go
Her place here will hard to fill.
Mrs. Pendleton is one of the most ac-
and intellectual ladies of
the South. Her opportunities have been
good and none of them have been
lowed to pass unimproved. In addition
to a line education both of head

is thoroughly fitted to fill any position
to which she may aspire. She goes to
one of the finest schools in the South,

even this school is fortunate, is to
be congratulated upon having
the services of so estimable,
and sweet Christian woman as
Mrs. Pendleton. Our loss is

she will there exercise her beneficent
and benign influence upon a much
larger number of girls than she could
possibly do here. We learn that she
will Mm her school here over to a very
accomplished lady that she can heartily
recommend for the position, this
will go way towards
confidence in her successor,
her a large share of the patronage.
