Upon an evil journey sped, <lb/>
And like and cruel dart. <lb/>
It pierced a load loving <lb/>
It turned a friend into a foe <lb/>
And everywhere brought pain and woe . <lb/>
A kind word followed it one day, <lb/>
Flew swiftly on its blessed way, <lb/>
It heal. the it soothed the pain, <lb/>
And friends old were friends again; <lb/>
It made the hate and anger cease <lb/>
And everywhere brought joy <lb/>
But yet the word left a trace. <lb/>
The not efface; <lb/>
And, though the heart its love regained. <lb/>
It bore a that long remained, <lb/>
Friends could forgive, but not forget, <lb/>
the sense of keen regret, <lb/>

Then spent an hour in a cherry chat <lb/>
With her neighbor at Number Four; <lb/>
And went for an hour to prate <lb/>
O'er the latest scandal at Number <lb/>

An hour at the window she stood, to look <lb/>
At a horse that was in the <lb/>
street. <lb/>
Then a cold collation she slowly took, <lb/>
And, being with work dead-beat. <lb/>
She into her chamber calmly went. <lb/>
And three hours in well-earned slumber <lb/>
spent. <lb/>
An hour o'er her novel she needs must <lb/>

And at length, when her husband came <lb/>

GOOD OBJECTS <lb/>
Comrades, no argument is needed <lb/>
to secure those objects your <lb/>
enthusiastic endorsement. <lb/>
have burdened your thoughts for <lb/>
many years, yon have cherished <lb/>
them sorrow, poverty and <lb/>
In the face of <lb/>
you held them in <lb/>
hearts with strength of religions <lb/>
convictions. No misjudgments can <lb/>
defeat your peaceful purposes for <lb/>
future. Your aspirations bare <lb/>
been lifted by the mere force and <lb/>
urgency of surrounding conditions <lb/>
to a plane far above paltry con- <lb/>
of partisan triumphs. <lb/>
honor of American <lb/>
the just powers of the federal <lb/>
government, equal rights of <lb/>
States, the integrity of <lb/>
onion, the of law <lb/>
and the enforcement of order have <lb/>
no class of defenders more true and <lb/>
devoted than the ex-soldiers of <lb/>
South and their worthy descend- <lb/>
ants realize the great <lb/>
troth that a people the <lb/>
memories of heroic suffering and <lb/>
sacrifices are <lb/>
A PEOPLE WITHOUT A <lb/>
To cherish such memories and re- <lb/>
call such a past, whether crowned <lb/>
with success or consecrated in de- <lb/>
feat, is to idealize principle and <lb/>
strengthen character, intensity love <lb/>
of country and convert defeat and <lb/>
disaster into pillars of support for <lb/>
future manhood and noble woman- <lb/>
hood. Whether the Southern <lb/>
under their changed conditions <lb/>
ever hope to witness another <lb/>
civilization which shall <lb/>
began with their Washing- <lb/>
ton and ended with their Lee, it is <lb/>
certainly true that devotion to their <lb/>
glorious past Is not only surest <lb/>
guarantee of progress and <lb/>
the holiest bond of unity, but is also <lb/>
strongest claim they can t <lb/>
to the confidence and respect of the <lb/>
other sections of Union. <lb/>
WON POLITICAL. <lb/>
In conclusion I beg to repeat, in <lb/>
substance at least, a few thoughts <lb/>
recently expressed by me to the <lb/>
State organization, apply <lb/>
with equal force to this general <lb/>
brotherhood. <lb/>
It is political in no sense except <lb/>
so far a the word is a <lb/>
synonym the word <lb/>
It is a brotherhood over which <lb/>
genius of philanthropy and patriot- <lb/>
ism, of truth and will <lb/>
side; or philanthropy, because it <lb/>
will succor the disabled, help <lb/>
needy, strengthen the weak and <lb/>
cheer disconsolate; of patriotism <lb/>
because it will cherish the past <lb/>
glories or the dead Confederacy and <lb/>
them into living <lb/>
for future service to the living <lb/>
republic; of truth, because it will <lb/>
seek to gather and preserve as wit- <lb/>
for history the <lb/>
able facts which shall doom false <lb/>
hood to die that truth may n ; of <lb/>
justice, because it will cultivate <lb/>
national as well as Southern <lb/>
and will condemn narrow <lb/>
and prejudice and pas- <lb/>
and cultivate that broader <lb/>
higher, sentiment, which <lb/>
would write on grave of every <lb/>
soldier who fell on either <lb/>
lies an American hero, a <lb/>
martyr to the light as bis conscience <lb/>
conceived <lb/>
ORGANIZATION. <lb/>
rejoice that a general <lb/>
too long neglected has been at <lb/>
last perfected. It. is a brotherhood <lb/>
which all honorable men must <lb/>
prove whir-h heaven itself will <lb/>
I call upon you therefore to <lb/>
organize in every State and com- <lb/>
where ex-Confederates may <lb/>
reside rally to the support of <lb/>
the high and peaceful objects of <lb/>
the Confederate <lb/>
aim move forward until by the pow- <lb/>
of organization and persistent <lb/>
effort your beneficent and Christian <lb/>
purposes are fully accomplished. <lb/>
J. B. Gordon. <lb/>
Commanding General. <lb/>
Tho Cotton Plant. <lb/>
According to good authority, says <lb/>
tho and fireside, the cotton <lb/>
plant was grown long before the <lb/>
Christian era. Many persons are <lb/>
under the impression that Cortes <lb/>
was first discoverer of cotton, <lb/>
having found it in Yucatan 1519. <lb/>
There seems to be some doubt as to <lb/>
this species of cotton being the <lb/>
same as that which was known to <lb/>
the ancient inhabitants of India. <lb/>
These people, according to En- <lb/>
cyclopedia raised cotton <lb/>
as early as B. C, made <lb/>
something of it. too, at remote <lb/>
period. India still produces cotton <lb/>
something over bales a <lb/>
is shipped to England <lb/>
and there manufactured. Still, a <lb/>
large portion of the cotton crop of <lb/>
the United States goes to England <lb/>
for manufacture also. American <lb/>
cotton is of much better quality <lb/>
than India cotton, and is used <lb/>
for making finer classes of Eng- <lb/>
cotton goods. The India cotton <lb/>
is for fabrics and even <lb/>
then a good deal American cotton <lb/>
is mixed with it to improve the <lb/>
texture. <lb/>
Cotton was also raised In <lb/>
years B. C, though that <lb/>
try was never regarded as a source <lb/>
of supply for staple. Central <lb/>
and South America and the West <lb/>
Indies, though now but little re- <lb/>
as cotton-producing <lb/>
tries, formerly ranked high in this <lb/>
respect. <lb/>
Cotton fabrics have long been <lb/>
known to Peruvians. Is <lb/>
evidence it was successfully <lb/>
cultivated by them as early as <lb/>
or in the rime of the Incas. <lb/>
The West India or Sea Island <lb/>
has the longest, silkiest <lb/>
and it is of this variety sewing <lb/>
thread is mostly made. The <lb/>
of cotton in West India <lb/>
Islands, however, has been largely <lb/>
supplanted by sugar, which seems <lb/>
to be more <lb/>
Brazil is a good cotton country, <lb/>
and of the staple has been <lb/>
raised there for a number of years. <lb/>
Cotton is also raised in Italy, <lb/>
Cape of Good Hope, Natal, <lb/>
Fiji and Tahiti, in small <lb/>
ties compared with the production <lb/>
in Southern States of this <lb/>
try. <lb/>
Cotton began to be raised in the <lb/>
United States to a limited extent, <lb/>
as early as it was not <lb/>
Eli Whitney got bis cotton gin <lb/>
on the market cot- <lb/>
ton began to assume such <lb/>
as to become of South- <lb/>
Whitney was <lb/>
poorly rewarded for bis wonderful <lb/>
invention, however, as many an- <lb/>
other public benefactor has been. <lb/>
A TRAVELING CORRESPONDENT <lb/>
Mr Albert the traveling <lb/>
correspondent of the <lb/>
Record baa had headquarters <lb/>
in Winston Salem and we desire to <lb/>
say now no agency has done <lb/>
more to bring out the development <lb/>
and crowing prosperity of North <lb/>
Carolin i than the bright and inter- <lb/>
letters written to the <lb/>
by Mr. <lb/>
The above utterance from <lb/>
conies an ill grace <lb/>
especially from a North Carolina <lb/>
journal. To speak disparagingly of <lb/>
tho efforts of the State press in <lb/>
order to pay a complement to some <lb/>
one else might be keeping with <lb/>
Chronicle's methods, but it is <lb/>
treating with unfairness <lb/>
great majority of State <lb/>
journals that not only given <lb/>
their time and labor without <lb/>
pay, but have given it of <lb/>
cost. <lb/>
The Chronicle may be ignorant of <lb/>
fact, bat it is nevertheless true <lb/>
North Carolina was discovered, <lb/>
inhabited and in a slight measure <lb/>
developed prior to January 1891. <lb/>
Of course there has been <lb/>
things done since then. Capital <lb/>
has into our State in such a <lb/>
lavish that we are seriously <lb/>
contemplating building a dam on <lb/>
the State line to keep it oat for fear <lb/>
that all of our people may get too <lb/>
lazy to work or will go in tho <lb/>
business, thus demoralizing <lb/>
trade, while Governor has or- <lb/>
out the State guard to move <lb/>
to the front stop the of <lb/>
migration that la flowing into our <lb/>
so fast and thus <lb/>
old time order things that <lb/>
even Alliance Is <lb/>
ginning to grow happy content- <lb/>
ed- When people pay a large round <lb/>
handsome sum for a thing have <lb/>
reason to expect something real nice <lb/>
catchy. <lb/>
Excuse from gull away <lb/>
from the real issue, but we mist say <lb/>
just as soon as we build a few <lb/>
more cities on top of the <lb/>

Vie endorse every word Sen- <lb/>
so well says above. <lb/>
of influential p out- <lb/>
side the State have much to <lb/>
aid its development and progress, <lb/>
but all they have does <lb/>
not amount to of the <lb/>
good accomplished by untiring <lb/>
work of home papers. <lb/>
As a role correspondent of an <lb/>
outside paper writes one general <lb/>
and says on more, while <lb/>
home sheet goes on week by week <lb/>
and piles argument top of <lb/>
argument and fact top of fact <lb/>
in showing the advantages we have <lb/>
to offer. To say State <lb/>
owes its prosperity to all the <lb/>
written for outside papers, <lb/>
much less to give the credit to <lb/>
paper, no matter though the paper <lb/>
be a great influential one like <lb/>
Manufacturer's Record, is <lb/>
sheerest nonsense and <lb/>
We appreciate what the Record <lb/>
and other papers have done for us, <lb/>
but they should not be given all <lb/>
praise while those who bear <lb/>
heaviest part of the load are <lb/>
ed. As the papers of North Caro- <lb/>
are not generally seekers after <lb/>
glory they are satisfied to see <lb/>
loved old State going forward so <lb/>
rapidly, and if it does a member of <lb/>
the gang any good to give credit for <lb/>
this work to outsiders they will say <lb/>
him gush Herald. <lb/>

of taking a look at Grimes- <lb/>
land farm this week, and it was a <lb/>
revelation. He has under <lb/>

cotton is splendid, the corn on his <lb/>

be desired, but other farm shows <lb/>

grown thereon for years. Every <lb/>
is in a fine state of cultivation, <lb/>
and bis farming operations promise <lb/>
great success- His potato crop was <lb/>
excellent, but with railroad facilities <lb/>
he tells us, he would cleared at <lb/>
least a thousand dollars more on that <lb/>
crop. He is now curing tobacco, and <lb/>
such quantities of the bright and <lb/>
leaf we have not seen <lb/>
many a day. He has seven barns <lb/>
near each other and a large pack- <lb/>
house, in these he has already <lb/>
cured thirty-one barns full, and will <lb/>
cure as many more. This crop of <lb/>
tobacco is as fine as we ever saw, ex- <lb/>

farms on scientific principles. He <lb/>

In its of Saturday <lb/>
Raleigh -New and a <lb/>
article in reply to what <lb/>
the Reflector said last week con- <lb/>
the quarrel between Capt. <lb/>
Ashe, of the editors of that <lb/>
the editors, as our <lb/>
valued contemporary stated and <lb/>
Col. Polk. The argument set <lb/>
forth in the reply degree <lb/>
changes tho from the <lb/>
ideas it has already advanced. <lb/>
wrote only of the bitter con <lb/>
that was waging between <lb/>
these two gentlemen that it was <lb/>
calculated to work injury, rather <lb/>
than good, both sides; and in- <lb/>
tended what was said no more for <lb/>
Capt. Ashe than for Col. Polk. <lb/>
Notwithstanding the <lb/>
Observer defends its course with <lb/>
the assertion that it conceived it a <lb/>
duty it owed the Democratic party, <lb/>
we are frank to confess our belief <lb/>
that if every Democratic journal <lb/>
in the State had pursued a similar <lb/>
course and followed the precedent <lb/>
laid down by it the breach would <lb/>
road than <lb/>
it is. boo no good to be de- <lb/>
rived from leaders standing up <lb/>
hurling the bitterest epithets <lb/>
and most scathing anathemas at <lb/>
each other. <lb/>
The is Democratic, <lb/>
it has never anything but <lb/>
Democratic, and Knowing that a <lb/>
great majority of Alliance are <lb/>
Democrats we see no reason for <lb/>
raising a quarrel with them and <lb/>
undertaking to read them out of <lb/>
the patty, our silence <lb/>
along line, Very true there <lb/>
are third party enthusiasts, Col. <lb/>
Polk a prime leader among them, <lb/>
but we not look upon them or <lb/>
him as being the Alliance, nor do <lb/>
we believe they are voicing the <lb/>
sentiment of the masses of that <lb/>
organization. Likewise we do not <lb/>
Buys <lb/>
and able things <lb/>
when the Newt <lb/>
to bitter extremes it <lb/>
of the muss- <lb/>
es of the Democratic party. <lb/>
As Polk, admit <lb/>
that personally have very little <lb/>
confidence in him. But we do <lb/>
have confidence in the. Alliance, <lb/>
and at no distant day <lb/>
it that Col. Polk is <lb/>
an unsafe leader, <lb/>
and that U they recklessly follow <lb/>
him into a third party they <lb/>
but lose the reforms they hope <lb/>
to obtain. <lb/>
Things seem to have changed <lb/>
considerably in Ohio recently. In <lb/>
fact the situation now is unique. <lb/>
The Republicans nominated <lb/>
solely because he was the <lb/>
author of the bill which bears <lb/>
his name. The fight was to be <lb/>
made along this line. This was <lb/>
necessary for the vindication of <lb/>
and the approval, <lb/>
of the present administration. <lb/>
But what do we see now Every <lb/>
Republican journal in the State is <lb/>
deserting this line of policy for the <lb/>
campaign and devoting their at- <lb/>
to the free coinage plank <lb/>
in the Democratic platform. <lb/>
Even himself has de- <lb/>
be found <lb/>
upon the same plank. Ohio Re- <lb/>

trust their pet hobby to the <lb/>

In its issue of the 4th the <lb/>
i gave the dates of <lb/>
the County Days at the Southern <lb/>
Exposition to open October 1st. <lb/>
Each county is to have a day, or <lb/>
rather a day, two counties <lb/>
being assigned a day together <lb/>
from the fact that the Exposition <lb/>
will not continue long enough <lb/>
for each county in the State <lb/>
to a separate day. <lb/>
Pitt county day, as the <lb/>
Ton published a few weeks ago, <lb/>
has beep put on October <lb/>
Chatham county the same day. <lb/>
These two splendid counties might <lb/>
make a grand display on that day, <lb/>
but if Pitt does not do some stir <lb/>
ring in the meantime it is very <lb/>
evident she will not be in it. <lb/>
Ever since receiving the letter <lb/>
Oct. 19th as Pitt county day the <lb/>
has tried to awaken an <lb/>
interest in the matter, but so far <lb/>
the effort has proved a failure. <lb/>
Only one man in the county has <lb/>
expressed a willingness to make a <lb/>
contribution to tho enterprise, and <lb/>
only one has declared an intention <lb/>
of exhibiting anything. <lb/>
Now, the wishes to <lb/>
ask Can Pitt county afford to <lb/>
take such a stand as this and fair <lb/>

The public might think us insane <lb/>
Should we never speak of the rain. <lb/>
Tho Norfolk of the <lb/>
2nd inst., devoted nearly a page <lb/>
to interviews with many of the <lb/>
leading business men of that city <lb/>
upon Norfolk's business out- <lb/>
look for the coming cotton year <lb/>
beginning with September. There <lb/>
is always something bright and <lb/>
interesting about the <lb/>
and these interviews prove no ex- <lb/>
They picture the bright <lb/>
est prospects just ahead, and fores <lb/>
tell tho heaviest trade and largest <lb/>
cotton receipts that the city has <lb/>
ever known. The cotton receipts <lb/>
for last year were sixty per cent, <lb/>
over the previous year, tho in- <lb/>
crease being from bales <lb/>
during tho year <lb/>
August 31st, 1800, to bales <lb/>
for the year ending August <lb/>
1891. If there is anything a <lb/>
corresponding increase the next <lb/>
year the receipts will foot up over <lb/>
three-quarters of million bales. <lb/>
Norfolk's general business in <lb/>
creased nearly one hundred per <lb/>
cant last year, its continued <lb/>
growth indicates that it is to be- <lb/>
come tho principal commercial <lb/>
of the South. At no far <lb/>
distant day it will hold that dis- <lb/>
The Reflector is clad to note <lb/>
such prosperity at Norfolk- Many <lb/>
people from Eastern North Caro- <lb/>
have made that city their <lb/>
home and are numbered among <lb/>
her principal men and <lb/>
the largo trade and cotton ship- <lb/>
that go there from this sec- <lb/>
are a great factor in making <lb/>
Norfolk what she is to-day. <lb/>
But we have long since adopted <lb/>
the plan to let the weather take <lb/>
care itself, and though the <lb/>
winds blow, storms come, de <lb/>
the creeks and rivers <lb/>
their banks, we try to look <lb/>
through the most seeming <lb/>
cloud and view the side <lb/>
which has the silvery So <lb/>
amidst I be darkest hours, eye <lb/>
of hope glances forward, trying to <lb/>
discern amidst the blackness a <lb/>
gleam of light. <lb/>
The outlook now is that cotton <lb/>
instead of being handled by <lb/>
money kings at the starving price <lb/>
or cents will bring to the <lb/>
horny handed former the lair price <lb/>
cents So is well that <lb/>
ends <lb/>
We hear it reported on the <lb/>
streets that a horse a small <lb/>
fell in the bridge that spans the <lb/>
creek ibis place. It seems to us <lb/>
that it would be well for the proper <lb/>
authorities immediately to look into <lb/>
the safety of the bridge. We have <lb/>
been taught to think that sound <lb/>
bridges are cheaper than to risk the <lb/>
lives of the public. word to the <lb/>
wise is <lb/>
please don't tamper with the safety <lb/>
or limbs much longer. <lb/>
Before this to the we <lb/>

more of them than any individual <lb/>
merchant of the town, and we have <lb/>

not as represented. He will show <lb/>

Fine Cotton. <lb/>
Saturday Daniel King brought us <lb/>
a stalk of cotton from the prize patch <lb/>
about which he wrote the Reflector <lb/>
two weeks ago. The stalk was <lb/>
feet high, as broad across <lb/>
and contained over two hundred <lb/>
boils, squares and blossoms. It is <lb/>
as fine a stalk of cotton as we ever <lb/>
saw. Daniel says it was not a picks <lb/>
eel stalk but only shows a fair aver- <lb/>
age of his patch. He also says that <lb/>
notwithstanding the ten days of bad <lb/>
weather recently he is still hopeful <lb/>
of making four bales on the acre. <lb/>
He is confident of winning the <lb/>
gold prize offered by the <lb/>
Guano Co. <lb/>
Pitt County Boy Abroad. <lb/>
We were somewhat surprised lo <lb/>
receive a letter last week dated a. <lb/>
Jefferson, Texas, from T. C. <lb/>
Manning, a young man of this <lb/>
who is winning quite a reputation <lb/>
throughout the Southern States as a <lb/>
teacher of penmanship. He left <lb/>
home last September on a tour ex- <lb/>
not to return until after the <lb/>
s Fair, but has changed his <lb/>
mind and will work back lo <lb/>
Carolina from where he is through <lb/>
Arkansas, Missouri Tennessee, <lb/>
reaching home in time for the Teach <lb/>
era Assembly in June of next year <lb/>
He will spend the summer months in <lb/>
this section, then strike out for a <lb/>
trip through the West to last until <lb/>
after the World's Fair. He is seeing <lb/>
much of the world in his travels. <lb/>
There is a demand cottages <lb/>
here, a fact that we hope the Green- <lb/>
ville Land and Improvement Com- <lb/>
will consider while developing <lb/>
their property. <lb/>
There will be an excursion to the <lb/>

Work on the extension of the rail- <lb/>

hear the company has hired con- <lb/>

it sixty days. <lb/>
There is some complaint in <lb/>
circles here over the change of <lb/>

Henry Keel says the man who can <lb/>
down, his tobacco has not shown up <lb/>
It some man with money wants to <lb/>
make more money let him erect a <lb/>
prize house here at once. <lb/>
From some of the country pa- <lb/>
we see that the farmers have <lb/>
just begun curing their tobacco. <lb/>
Down here the majority of them are <lb/>
done curing. <lb/>
Greenville makes her debut among <lb/>
the tobacco markets Thursday, <lb/>
1st. Watch her how rapidly <lb/>
she comes to the front as the leading <lb/>
market of the East. <lb/>
Mr. James Galloway, of <lb/>
has added a tobacco sample to the <lb/>
Reflector collection. It was cured <lb/>
by Mr. Charles Hester, and shows a <lb/>
splendid, rich color. There was <lb/>
some dark mahogany in the sample. <lb/>
Saturday Mr. J. T. Dunn brought <lb/>
us a tobacco curiosity. It was an <lb/>
ordinary. leaf of tobacco from the <lb/>
stem of which another leaf <lb/>
had formed about two inches from <lb/>
the tip. The second leaf is very <lb/>
small. <lb/>
Pitt farmers are nearly <lb/>
through curing their tobacco and <lb/>
have a good crop. Up country they <lb/>
are just fairly in to curing and the <lb/>
crop is reported the poorest they <lb/>
have had in years. This shows that <lb/>
Pitt county is the place to raise to- <lb/>
successfully and get it cured <lb/>
early. There plenty of room down <lb/>
here for all tho country farmers <lb/>
who wish to locate among us. <lb/>
The stockholders of the Greenville <lb/>
Tobacco Warehouse Company held a <lb/>
meeting Saturday and perfected an. <lb/>
for the of <lb/>
their warehouse, now nearing com <lb/>
and selected Thursday, <lb/>
1st. opening day. The first <lb/>
sales upon the warehouse floor will <lb/>
place that day. <lb/>
The company have made excellent <lb/>
selections in the who are lo <lb/>
conduct the business of the ware- <lb/>
house, as these names will G. <lb/>
F. General Manager; O. T. <lb/>
Forties, Floor Manager; O. L. Joy- <lb/>
Book-keeper; R. J. Hart, <lb/>
The Reflector would hardly <lb/>
to offer a word of <lb/>
lion to Mr. Evans. He is the pioneer <lb/>
tobacco grower of the and <lb/>
success with which its cultivation <lb/>
here has met is due largely to him. <lb/>
Everybody knows what an upright, <lb/>
reliable man be is and Hie general <lb/>
management of the warehouse <lb/>
not have been placed in better hands <lb/>
Mr. O. T. Forbes is a young ma., <lb/>
who has ha i experience at handling <lb/>
tobacco and will make an excellent <lb/>
floor manager. He was one season <lb/>
Davis A Gregory, at Oxford, in <lb/>
this capacity. <lb/>
Mr. O. L. Joyner will admirably <lb/>
fill the position of book-keeper. He <lb/>
is a graduate of the Commercial <lb/>
College at Kentucky University, <lb/>
where he took a special business <lb/>
course. <lb/>
Mr. R. J. Hart, the auctioneer, is <lb/>
from Henderson. He has had large <lb/>
experience in the tobacco warehouse <lb/>
work and knows all about every de <lb/>
it. He was with Y <lb/>
Cooper four years. Besides being <lb/>
auctioneer he will buy for a large <lb/>
manufacturing establishment. <lb/>
These men selected to conduct the <lb/>
warehouse will begin work for it at <lb/>
once. Tis week Messrs. Evans and <lb/>
Hart go to Richmond and Danville <lb/>
to interest buyers in this market and <lb/>
to arrange with the factories to take <lb/>
the purchases of the warehouse. <lb/>
Next week Mr. Jo, will visit <lb/>
Henderson, Oxford and Durham <lb/>
securing buyers and acquainting <lb/>
himself with warehouse work. <lb/>
One thing is Pitt county- <lb/>
tobacco is wanted, it will be sought <lb/>
after, and the buyers arc going to <lb/>
come here to get it. <lb/>
Now a word to the farmers. Green <lb/>
is going lo be as good a <lb/>
as there is in the Slate and tobacco <lb/>
will bring just as high prices here as <lb/>
anywhere. Bring your tobacco here <lb/>
and the amount saved in freights <lb/>
traveling expenses will be that <lb/>
much clear profit over what you can <lb/>
get by taking it elsewhere. <lb/>
Steps should begin at once for <lb/>
betiding prize Louses and another <lb/>
warehouse. <lb/>

panorama of beauty, and it is truly <lb/>
an emporium of fashion. To say <lb/>
nothing of the splendid bargains he <lb/>

So much is about tho <lb/>
and impudence of the clerks in the <lb/>
big dry goods stores that when one is <lb/>
found that cannot be made cross by <lb/>
any combination of circumstance he <lb/>
ought certainly to have the lit of <lb/>
that fact being heralded oven <lb/>
if for obvious reasons neither his i <lb/>
nor the name of the store which is so <lb/>
fortunate as to have his services ran be <lb/>
given. The store Is, however, in Four- <lb/>
street and tho clerk Is the <lb/>
most a one in the whole <lb/>
retail dry goods district so it may not <lb/>
be a bard matter for shoppers to <lb/>
him. <lb/>
It was on the very hottest day r the <lb/>
month that this clerk was put t bis <lb/>
severest test An lady from tho <lb/>
country had, with an infinite amount <lb/>
of trouble, succeeded in making <lb/>
what extensive purchase of linen for <lb/>
her table. To pass over the <lb/>
nary incidents of tho showing of about <lb/>
all the tablecloths and napkins and <lb/>
In stock before the purchase <lb/>
was made, the real trouble began with <lb/>
the payment <lb/>
Tho old lady emptied out on the <lb/>
counter the contents of n small hand- <lb/>
bag. The contents were dimes and <lb/>
five cent pieces, and there was a big <lb/>
heap of them. The purchase came to <lb/>
Just under twenty dollars. After <lb/>
counting it over twice, tho clerk bad to <lb/>
charter two extra trains on tho cash <lb/>
railway in order to get the money to <lb/>
tho cashier's desk. <lb/>
Tho old lady gave minute directions <lb/>
for the doing up of her package, and <lb/>
started for the door. She stopped to <lb/>
think, and came back Again. She said <lb/>
that the napkins she had picked out <lb/>
were too coarse after all, and she be- <lb/>
that would take finer ones. <lb/>
The bundle was sent for, and the <lb/>
was mode. More dimes and <lb/>
five cent pieces dumped down be- <lb/>
fore the smiling clerk. <lb/>
Once more the old lady started for <lb/>
tho door, and more she came <lb/>
She thought that she would like to <lb/>
look at the tablecloths that she had <lb/>
bought. The clerk laid out her pack- <lb/>
age before her, but she decided not to <lb/>
make any in the tablecloths, <lb/>
and started away again; but she came <lb/>
back once more and the tray- <lb/>
cloths changed and the clerk had to <lb/>
fix her bill again. There did not seem <lb/>
anything that she could want <lb/>
changed, and the clerk sent the bundle <lb/>
upstairs. <lb/>
In ten minutes the troublesome buyer <lb/>
was back again. This time she wanted <lb/>
a of New York newspapers <lb/>
sent to be done up with her bundle. <lb/>
The clerk took them a gracious <lb/>
remark that It would not be the least <lb/>
trouble In world to them put <lb/>
with her package, and then ho bis <lb/>
attention to another customer as if all <lb/>
this had not been an incident worthy <lb/>
of notice. <lb/>
Of course, stories told of <lb/>
clerks much more accommodating than <lb/>
this one, but they possibly might not <lb/>
have tho advantage which this has of <lb/>
being strictly York Times. <lb/>
A Lesson In <lb/>
Many inventions have been suggested <lb/>
in dreams, and it should be <lb/>
that tho mechanical faculty Is <lb/>
situated above temple, as was first <lb/>
learned from a supposed skull of Ra- <lb/>
and from the head of a milliner <lb/>
who uncommon taste. Self <lb/>
esteem is high on the back of the head. <lb/>
It is always found large in beggars <lb/>
who excuse their poverty on account <lb/>
of pride. On either skis of esteem <lb/>
arc the bumps of love of approbation, <lb/>
which are greatly developed as a rule <lb/>
in lunatics, who imagine they are kings <lb/>
and queens. <lb/>
Benevolence is on top of tho head, a <lb/>
little In front of the middle; <lb/>
is in front of and <lb/>
wonder is still farther forward. This <lb/>
last is prominent in psychic researchers <lb/>
and vision seers. is In the <lb/>
middle of the forehead; it is touched <lb/>
by the hand when is composing <lb/>
poetry. Nearly every one comp <lb/>
remarkably good poetry in his dreams <lb/>
if only he could remember it after- <lb/>

As a rule dentists make a good living, <lb/>
and during year the colleges in <lb/>
Philadelphia turned out graduates. <lb/>
most successful practitioners are <lb/>
said to make from to a <lb/>
year; but this is doubtful. <lb/>
The vegetable Ivory plant of South. <lb/>

article. Its seeds at first contain a <lb/>
clear, insipid liquid, which changes by <lb/>
degrees until it becomes as bard as <lb/>

United States payout more <lb/>

examinations. Three companies pay <lb/>
more than each per annum. <lb/>

toward the middle of the Sixteenth <lb/>
century pins began to win appreciation <lb/>
so high that statutes were enacted pro- <lb/>

of numerous minor articles. <lb/>
