C, Mar. 13th, Mr. Harrison was fortunate in out this week. Ho escaped the first exuberance of the Blame Howlers, who have gone com- wild, because the alleged re treaty has been formally accepted by the Brazilian govern- instead of being rejected as bad been rumored, and because the British government has agreed to submit the Sea dispute to arbitration, reserving the right to insist upon the payment of damages by this government for what it c ills the illegal seizure of vessels sailing under the British flag. Before crowning Mr. Blame king of the world diplomacy the should procure a copy of the dis- Lord Salisbury, sent to the Minister here last Summer, which was a part of the submitted to Congress at the hist, session. They will find that the proposition then made by Great to arbitrate was, with little things, such as may each in exception that it included the Ca- fisheries dispute, ally the same as that now accepted by Salisbury. If there has been diplomatic victory won in these negotiations Mr. Blame was not Its winner. Notwithstanding the that Mr. Harrison had concluded not to make the of the nine United States Judges until Congress met again the applicants these life time are patiently waiting for him How to be Independent. To save is absolutely the only way to amass a solid fortune, and if the wives of poor men would only realize this fact, it would be much the best Tor People who start the without means must either lie content with poverty all through life, or be willing to themselves many things, and save, to lay the basis of the future; there is no other certain mode. Yet we will hear many women, who indulge in dress entertaining and other Ties far, far beyond their means, bemoan their misfortune in being poor. Fortunes do not come, as many suppose, by chance, and we make no more fatal mistake than that we are mere creatures of fate. Every one may make or mar his or her life whichever they may choose Fortune is for those who, by themselves in a position to grasp the boon. If would only study the art of saving itself seem insignificant, but, when put together amount to a great deal it would contribute vastly to prosperity. Then, to learn to curtail all wants as well as to spend money always wisely and much suffering in old age would be avoided, many comfortable fortunes amassed.

Attorney General Miller is said to be studying the law under which these judges are to be pointed, as doubts have been ex- pressed of its constitutionality.

There is a well de- fined rumor here that Mr. Harrison will try get rid of Huston by tendering him an important foreign mission.

As for Mr. Cleve- land it would hardly be, wise to put him up under the present state of public feelings in regard to free coinage. The election of Gen. John M.

In this he has the best legal talent the country has ever had against Mm. It has always before been held by constitutional lawyers that a new office could not be treated as a vacancy. This seems to be the idea of the President also. Hon. James Grant, who was a native of North Carolina, but had been several years in Iowa, recent- died. He was an alumnus of our State University. Ho had amassed great wealth, and was very liberal with it. Last June he gave to the Chair of His- at the University of North Carolina. It is pleasing to note how the hearts of native North Carolinians turn to our State when they are in other States.

Hill, of New York, is trying to straddle both the and Governorship. He has been elected the Sena- and his term commenced March 4th, and ho is entitled to his pay from that time. But he refused to resign the office of Governor until next December when Congress meets. Gov. Hill is looming up as a Presidential candidate, but he should not show himself so greedy of office. It will tend to weaken rather than strengthen him. It does not show well in a man to hold two offices and want a third one. Lynch law is always even though the course of justice be sometimes turned aside by or through corrupt but there are mitigating cir- in the case of the of New Orleans who recently lynched twelve members of the Mafia, an outlawed society organ- for plunder and murder. These men had been acquitted by the intimidation and bribery of the jury, in the face of evidence of the most positive and kind of the guilt of a number of them of having been in a con- which resulted in the cold- blooded murder of the chief of police of that city. The mob which lynched these prisoners was composed of the leading of New Orleans, many of whom carried in their pockets the issued by the Mafia, and who deemed it a of life or death, whether they or the Mafia should be Before condemning the ac- of these threatened citizens who for months been com- to take every precaution to prevent their own assassination it is well to read the opinions of those great commercial bodies, the Board of Trade, the Sugar Ex- change and the Stock Exchange, of New Orleans, as expressed in the following preamble and unanimously adopted by them all on the afternoon of the day the lynching took place The deplorable lien of criminal justice in this city, and the frightful extent to which the of juries been carried, has rendered it for the citizens of New Or- leans to vindicate outraged justice. e it That while we deplore at all times the resort to violence, we consider the action taken by the citizens this to be proper and justifiable. The Italian government has pro- tested and Mr. Harrison has for- warded a communication to the Governor of Louisiana calling his attention to the treaty obligations which compel us to protect of countries Mr. Blaine has an opportunity. Let him show the world the why and wherefore of this unfortunate and the citizens of New Orleans the hearing they are entitled to. The Republican editors through the country seem to dwell with much bitterness on the fact that Senator Palmer was once a Re- publican and turned a Democrat. It stings them very much for one Of their number to turn against them. Gen. Palmer saw the error of his way, and like every true man, turned from it. It is worth noting also that he was a only a short while. We guess he is not tainted with Re- enough to show them and that is just what they do not like. It is a fact that many honest Republicans torn Democrats, while it is only the rotten and corrupt Democrats who Republicans in order to be in their own element. Gen. Palmer is a good Democrat and that is what hurts his enemies. We have read of several cases of lynching, but never have seen one so little condemned as the re- cent affair at New Orleans. It can hardly be called lynching in its true sense. It was done by the best and hitherto most law abiding citizens of the city. Last October Chief Police Hennessey, the discharge of his duty, was by the Mafia, an of outcast Italians, who had fled justice in their own land. Hennessey was trying to find out something about them, and about some murders they had committed when they set upon him and foully murdered him. The people of New Orleans long been noted as a law abiding people, and though they knew that they had been outraged by this secret or- of foreigners, yet they preferred to let the law take its course. In due time the murder- j era were brought to trial, and I though the evidence was clear and convincing enough to convict any one, they were cleared by the of judge and jury. It was then that the indignation of hon- est people burst forth, and they coolly and deliberately to take the law in their own hands. Accordingly they visited the on and without disguise put eleven of the murderers out of the way. If this had not been done, if the Mafia had not thus been punished, it would have been giving them license to do anything they please, and not only the Mafia, but any other secret organization. We do not in any sense approve of lynch- and it is to be deplored that the necessity of such a thing ever exists. While the people did this we do not think they are for it. The responsibility must rest upon the judge and jury who, in violation of their sworn duty, failed to do their duty. This was one case of necessary and justifiable lynching; and it is to be hoped that the effect of it will tend to prevent the repetition of such crimes by the Mafia, or any other organization.

Minutes of session read approved. Committee on statistics appointed at the morning session made their re port by churches and schools giving number of officers and teachers and pupils of each schools, and was con tinned until the night session to summarize the statistics Rev. A. D. Hunter addressed the convention on the Organization of Sunday Schools, lie gave some practical suggestions as to selection of superintendent and teachers; some teachers are better qualified in departments of the work than The very best teacher in the school should be placed in charge of the infant class. He wanted to sec every church have a special room provided for use of the infant class. Where sufficient number of teachers can be had six pupils are enough for one class, however a large class in the hands of a good teacher is prefer- able to a small class in the of a Sorry teacher. Preparation for Sunday School Teaching was discussed by It. B. John. Preparation absolutely and should be careful. Sunday- School teaching is a high privilege as well as a great responsibility. Prep- is divided into two and first being the preparation for any lesson, the latter for the special lesson for the day. In general preparation, have a knowledge of the Bible and its his- understand something of the condition of those to be taught possess some of the laws of teaching. In special preparation aim to under- stand the meaning of the be- fore you; study this with a view your own spiritual needs and supplying them to the pupil. Analyze the subject in hand, locate the lime, place and persons connect- ed with it. Bring out the facts, doctrines and duties. Study the passages of Scrip- and have a of the meaning. The teacher in thin paring a lesson digs truths out of the Bible, that bring joy to his own and make him a power in the work. Adjourned to 7.40 P. M. NIGHT SESSION.

It is much the fashion with us to matters of religion with the Even members of the church leave Sunday School work with the women and children.- Man boasts of his mental superiority over woman but fails to put it use in Christ's cause. Man has superior for work as he can go into dives sin misery and bring out the waifs en there and take them to San School. The women cannot go lo these places because there arc so of the church among to point the finger of scorn and derision and call her a re- crank. Is Sunday School work a good work. If so it is as good for men to engage in as for men. He also spoke of the Bible, the Book Books, and the beauty of its study. There is great difference be- tween a reader of the Bible and a student of the Bible. The Sunday School system of study affords the best means of learning the Bible. Since reunited with the Sunday School a few years ago and closely followed the system of Bible study laid down, he had learned more of the truths the blessed Book contains than he hail in thirty years given to read- n chapter here and there. Church membership is a high and carried with it the of giving heed to all church ties and work. Look at the example the men arc setting. They are watch ed by the boys who follow in their Suppose could get all the male members of the church to go regularly to Sim day School, what a difference it would in the boys of this community. Rev. G. A. next addressed the meeting on How to Teach a Class. To do a thing a man must be in accord with that which he is to do. In teaching there must be some- thing in common between teacher and pupil that will draw them to- and win their attention, or nothing will be accomplished. The teacher must come down to a level with the scholar and get hold of him. He has been mingling with the world all the week and must be drawn to the truth. Secure their attention apt illustrations a good method of doing this. Voluntary and inquiring attention is wonted. Tho teacher to command this attention is tie one who has first made preparation and must be full of enthusiasm. Certain characteristic in children are to be utilized. Mr. P. Elliott, of Baltimore, was asked to say a few words, which he did, upon the close relation ex- between the church and the Sunday School. Live, active, work- Sunday Schools are always ac by live, active, working churches, and vice versa. Mr. Nicholson, of Baltimore, was also present and by request made a few remarks. he was not much of a speaker, but was always glad to say a word in behalf of Sunday Schools. He referred to that part of Gov. address concerning the study of tho Bible and enlarged somewhat upon it. A collection of was asked for lo meet the pledge made for Pitt county lo the Stale Sunday School work. The was easily ed. The convention then adjourned. Two Items The Reflector is indebted to Mr. B. II. for Hie two items below. Mrs. Isabella Moore, mother of Mrs. B. H. Heart , is the mother of children, grandmother of and great-grandmother of one child. Only one of this entire has died, and that was one of her boys who received a wound and died during the She is years old, hale and and always ready for work. It is remarkable that no natural death has occurred in so large a family. It time for people lo prepare their meat to keep out vermin. A sure way is to dip the meat In bail- water, take it out and cover the flesh side with dry corn meal, hang it up, smoke it a little more and let it remain hanging.

He lowered it from his shoulder and bad just rested the butt on the ground with the muzzle against or very near his body, perhaps for the purpose of examining it, when gun suddenly discharged, the entire load entering his throat just to right of the chin making a most horrible wound that caused instant death. Seeing him fall to the ground Eddie Flanagan ran towards him and upon the first sight of blood he called to Charlie Dancy lo run for a doctor, that George Nelson had shot himself. A few steps nearer revealed to him that George was dead, and threw him- self upon the and began ling and screaming in agony. Ed- screams attracted the attention of some ladies living in who had also heard the report of the gun, and fearing someone was they rushed out to ascertain. They arrived upon the scene to be con- fronted with a most distressing spec, George lying dead upon the ground, his blackened with smoke from tho gun beside him while blood was from a ghastly wound in his throat. The sight was appalling. News of the sad accident was quickly sent over into town that friends might go and take the body of the unfortunate youth home.

She was carried home before being told of what had happened, and when the sad words were spoken her shrieks of anguish melted the strongest hearts to floods of tears. The blow was sudden and severe, her with intense grief. There is a touch of humanity that all mankind kin, and there are times when the grief of one be- comes the sorrow of us all. Never was this more true than in this dis- Divine Providence. While could feel it so deeply as she, the grief of the heart broken mother shared by every soul in the community, and every Christian heart was lifted In supplication to our Heavenly Father to send Spirit to comfort in her sorrow. All Sunday and Monday many ex- of profound sympathy were conveyed to her, and numbers of beautiful floral offerings were sent to be placed upon the bier of the dead boy, a harp, a cross, and initials of h s name being among designs. At o'clock Monday afternoon the remains were laid at rest in the church yard, being borne by six young men, Messrs, Alex.

The sequence of events had been so different from his own conceived arrangement of them that his the moment was thrown out of gear, and stood supine, accepting that which came as though it were a finality. The thing most evident to him was that he had ensnared himself with a net- work of egregious blundering, and that egress from it, to be graceful or even endurable, would require more skill of management than he had any right to accredit himself with possessing. The terms in which he apostrophized him- self summed up the case, and were none the less hearty and comprehensive for being inwardly given. all the inter- fools in this so r;. his thoughts, are entitled to the lead. Hart Royal. And a beautiful mess you've gotten yourself this time, with your damned The preoccupation of his manner and careworn expression of his face caused the to surmise that lie mast be in acute physical pain. For the few moments allowed to friends at try church weddings they crowded round him, striving to re- call themselves to his memory, and speaking pitifully of the accident and enthusiastically of his pluck in not lowing it to interfere with his marriage. They were so kind and cordial that Royal could have gnashed his teeth and shouted at them that he was no better than an impostor. Instead of which he nailed his false colors to the mast, as it were, and smiled and bowed and shook with everybody. Hi brain worked with feverish rapid- and by the time they had shut him into Squire Brandon's carriage for the short drive to the house, where the young lady would change her dress for the wedding journey, a sense of the of his own position touch- ed mm, bringing with it a sudden strong desire to laugh, and creating a reaction which restored equilibrium. He had made a mess of it, he was willing to ad- but circumstances had seemed to wall him into a narrow track, along which he had cantered like the most obliging of donkeys. At this stage of the proceedings did little good and was provocative of and of reliable foresight he was fans, in all humility of soul, to confess destitute. There was nothing for it but to face the situation in the present and endeavor to adjust it with the minimum of pain and discomfort all around The only solution which itself was to carry out the plan as originally proposed, striving to blunder less in the end than be had done in the beginning. He would take the young lady straight to John Royal, making such explanation to her as would insure her recognition of the love and anxiety for her future which had been the main- spring of a scheme which he bow de- as idiotic. In the presence of the dying man all personal pique, all womanly sensitive- would shrivel and vanish before the majesty of love and the awful mystery of that which was to come. A strange journey it would be, with a strange end- For the first time came realization is the natter from the woman's stand- point, and with it a great for her a strong desire to shield her from the curiosity and multiplicity of detail to which his story must give rise, at least until this travesty of marriage be made real by the true man's ac- of it. He would keep his own counsel until he should have given the wife into the keeping of her husband, then it would be time enough to ad- text the outside world to enter upon ex- and w justification. Arrived at a definite conclusion, he his shoulders and put aside that strange sense of and per- implication which had oppressed during the ceremony. In truth, little time for thought, leas for the need action was omnipresent He turned to look, for the first time definitely, at John Royal's bride. As he did so a low laugh startled him, and a hand was thrust out to touch his arm and then withdrawn. It was glove- leas, and on the third finger gleamed the ring. She was enveloped in a wrap which MM her white dress, and her head and face were hid- M folds of soft dark from at throat and crown, the lace of bridal veil peeped forth, like white under gray ones.

We must leave by that train. It is that we should. You are ready, He intended to take her whether she should be or not, but put the question from sheer nervousness. Anything was better than sitting beside her in a state of absolute passivity. yes. My trunks were packed some days ago, and all the arrangements made. You were so another rippling laugh have not changed in that, John. Yon love your own way still. Is it not so But the arrangements need make no difference. We can stay over a day or two to rest if it will be better for you. You will like to see the old place and to visit Aunt Anne's grave. She was so fond of you. We could stop over for But Royal would not hear of stopping over for anything. His private feeling toward the deceased lady was one of dis- animosity. He hoped orthodoxly and that she might be doing spiritual penance for the trouble and dis- tress likely to be entailed by the acts of her material life, and would gladly have known that she was aware of the mis- carriage of her plans and greatly tor- thereby. He generalized for a moment in regard to the old home and the desire to see it which he was expected to feel; but he made it evident that he intended to leave by tho first down train. Unlike brides in general, this young lady appeared docile and amenable to an exceptional degree. Royal, in the midst f his anxiety, wondered over her, and felt the within him moved to Then his professional experience reminded him that women are usually submissive to the power conferred by Buffering. In the eyes of this woman he, perhaps, appeared a wounded hero. Her next words made evident that such was indeed the case. horrible she and a quick shudder ran through her frame. can't help feeling that half not been told you have all conspired to keep the worst back and make light of it, in order to spare me pain. You poor fellow how you must have suffered It was terrible a home coming like that, after six When I think of it what yon have done for what you are doing for me and enduring for my then think of the anxiety in store for feel that a lifetime of love and devotion will hardly pay interest on the debt I owe you. Am I worth it to you, John Will I ever be worth it to Her voice trembled a little, and Royal had an intuition that she was holding back tears. He felt a sudden stricture of the heart, as though the blood had been drained away. This was not the happy chatter of a girl bride, loving and beloved. Through this woman's voice pulsed an undercurrent of pathos, thrill- its sweetness like minor chords in music. He felt, somehow, that in spite of his best endeavor he was taking fair advantage of the man who had trusted him, was getting a glimpse into arcana which no stranger unauthorized should penetrate. His pity grew apace, and beside it developed a devouring curiosity, until his very breast strained by stress and complexity of emotion. He yearned to to her, but durst not for lack of proper words and an assured position, and so dumbly waited, feeling that if she should con- to talk in that strain during the rest of the drive he could not be held ac- countable for his actions. She did not appear to notice his silence or to be hurt by it; perhaps she was in some subtle way conscious of the tension of his mood, or she may have been occupied by her own thoughts. For a little space there was silence. old time is so long ago that yon can't love me in the old way, John. It isn't possible. There has been so much in your adventure and quantities of new and interesting people. Not quite in the old way, but enough still to enable me to develop a new and stronger love. They say a love increases with the strain put on it, and in that case yours will grow as compact and firm as the heart of an oak. That's pretty to think of, isn't Then with a sudden change of is six years since we have seen each other, John. Just think of it They say that I have changed very little, and I suppose yon would have known me anywhere. Have you changed, I wonder Let me Royal involuntarily turned his face away and drew his breath hard. This was the moment he had dreaded; for if she should detect the imposture there would be the end of his scheme for spar- her still a little while. And how would it be possible for her not to detect it She must have had a series of photo- graphs of the other John Royal during those years, pictures that would have chronicled each gradation of change. There was no help for it, however, so ha braced bis nerves and faced round half defiantly toward her. The veil still covered her face, and she made no effort to withdraw it.
