It is difficult to see what Foster can gain by putting off, under any and all sorts of excuses, the payment of the appropriations made by the billion dollar Congress. The revenues of tho government are not increasing sufficiently rapid for him to even hope that the economy of the next Congress will allow the Treasury to catch up with the extravagances of the last. The aim of the is doubtless to so manipulate and juggle with the finances of the country as to state off the actual deficit in the Treasury, which would now be of large dimensions if all the payments legally ed for were made, by until after the Presidential Election, then if their party is defeated, and defeat for them appears at this time to be as certain as any future political event can be they will proceed to make the deficit as large as in order to embarrass the in- coming Democratic The Greenville is urging the merchants of that town to put their plus money together and establish a tobacco factory to work the leaf which is sold in the warehouse there. It is a well worthy of the not only of the merchants for whom it is intended but for the farmers who raise or expect to raise tobacco of others who are interested in the prosperity of the county and of the town. While the establishment of a factory would give stability to the home market for the sale of the leaf grown it would its culture by encouraging the farmers to go more generally into it, and at the same time it would prove, if managed by experienced persons, a profitable investment for those who put their money into It.

WASHINGTON LITTER. Regular WASHINGTON, Sept. Secretary Foster, as shown by his latest move, is getting down to small change expedients in bis forts to get the money to meet the demands being made upon the Treasury.

Mr. Harrison is finding his tussle with the big men of ins party over the distribution of the rich plums at bis disposal, a far more difficult at the beginning of his administration, as every my made now will count in the nominating convention next year. It is stated that Attorney General Miller has been compelled in sell defense to acknowledge to republican that the rumor of bis retiring from the Cabinet to ac- a place on the new Circuit Court bench was true. The man wanted the appointment himself and asked Miller for his support. After this the republicans are not to have it all way in Ohio, as they have seemed to do for awhile since their campaign has in full blast and their speakers have been industriously pushing aside the tariff question, Bat now all this is to be changed and the democrat- campaign, just opened, is to be made an aggressive one with the tariff as the uppermost question. Representative Mills, who makes his first speech in that.

Why Sent Girls Lot Power on Ac- It is impossible for any girl or woman to be happy, or even satisfied with herself, if some time in early- life she fails to possess the gift of attracting and retaining the love of desirable wooer. Many beautiful young ladies who are less favored with than their more comely sisters, wonder what the cause of this neglect can be; tor there are very few who do not soon after that both the and fortune fate decrees for them rests wholly within their powers of When girls find that good looks alone do not better their chances, and stop imagining as well that every one they meet is in love with them, they learn some things beneficial; among them, that the majority of men prefer a quiet, simple style of beauty to that of a conspicuous loud- styled belle of fashion. Many a courtship baa been broken off just on the even of a much-wished for proposal for no other reason that the principals have changed their minds. Had they owned the t. it might have been said that the attraction had died out, leaving no warmth in their hearts for each other. Hardly anything is more mortify- to a girl than to know that she has lost a without really why it was so; that for years wasted her time and youth in his society, and, unfortunately, all her friends and acquaintances supposed she had won his heart long ago. The bare shock to women who have suffered losses of affection is quite apt to cause a loss of faith in own charms, as well as to pro- duce a much disturbed mind. The only relief they find is sought in travel, change of scene people. It does not always happen that girls who mingle constantly in society are the most interesting or able to draw to their sides the type of manhood most and whom they believe are fitted for them. Nothing is more pleasing to the average man than unaffected, sweet simplicity in girlhood and natural, unstudied cleverness in women. One man may not by the odd charms that another likes. is and it is well that all men and women do not sec or ad- mire alike, while hearts that beat as are, In the course of true love, oblivious to all others whom they meet. A great many girls think it quite tho proper thing to be brilliant in special company, and do not study the best way to make visitors per- at ease to at when- ever they cross the threshold. No doubt there is not one of those girls out of a dozen who finds out her mis- take until the visits of her male friends become less frequent, if they do not cease altogether. When lovers learn each other's ways they either become more attracted or find out something unsuitable in their tastes or ideas in common, or per- haps in their personal habits. In the place, to feel at ease every person should see that his or her clothes fit and look well. One should always dress becomingly, yet not expensively. Some- times a trivial neglect of their per- appearance turns the tide of affection. Another reason why some of the fair sex attract at first and lose their power afterward is that they assume a forward, gay mannerism in enter-. which they de- themselves into believing is vivacious and Others spoil their progress by too great an effort to make a hasty impression, unduly agitating their powers, as and disgusting their listeners. . Delicacy of intellect, quick capacity for are woman's attractive qualities which every man of taste delights to find. But unwise arguments, self-boast- clamorous talk, flattery, and envious gossip, these things men de- test in the fair sex. Every man hopes it will some day be hi to meet and wed a lovely woman who takes pleasure in pleasing him, keeps his temper ruffled, has tact enough not to keep friends and himself in hot water, but has a knack of devising harmonious pleasures for his spare moments and can cleverly bridge over many trying situations. These are the gifts that men and value men sway and never lose the human affections once gained. Lovers who realize this should choose wives who understand their tastes, whose Ideas blend together, and whose haven is in the When Ton the Bight One. Every man has a natural regard for the fair sex. In the language of the The bee many a garden roves. And hum his lay of courtship o'er; But when he finds the flower be loves. He settles there and hums no more.

Unmarried neighbors may fest a courteous interest in each Other, as may who have known each other from childhood up; but only in a few exceptional instances do their regards go beyond mere friendship to that of marriage. Sometimes a new arrival among one's circle of acquaintances causes an electric spark in some heart that has to appeared cold and toward others with whom he has previously come in social contact, and a love match is the result.

There is no science which can predict the tempests to which every human life is exposed; there is no code of signals warning of approach- peril. The strain upon comes often like a tropical storm, which rises without warning over a cloudless horizon or bursts without the possibility of escape from a ant sky. There is only one way in which a man can prepare for these sudden and critical strains which are to test the very tissue of his and that la the flawless building into truth and righteousness. The oak survives the tempest by virtue of the daily accretions of strength which have entered into it year by year; the man survives the swift and tumultuous advance of temptation by virtue of the moral power which, almost unconsciously, be has slowly accumulated from day to day. It is true that sometimes the strong man suddenly breaks under the strain of instant passion; but, as n rule, the man who breaks is a man in whom the signs of disintegration were already evident. The tree which fails in the of the summer day was rotten within; as a rule the man who suddenly collapses morally brings to light a process of decay which has long been going on within him. lie who is faithful to hour hour is all the while preparing to the storm that may sometime burst upon him. storm is certain to come. No human life is so sheltered it escapes those great temptations which. resisted, play havoc with a man's career. He who lives without the thought of this possibility is as criminally unwise as the captain would be who should give up all care of bis ship because, at the moment, waters were smooth and the skies were fair. To prepare for peril ought to be the constant solicitude of every man, and this preparation is nothing more than the daily rectitude which becomes first a habit and then a per- and imperishable character.

THE MURDER TRIAL. Convicted Sentence to Bug December 4th. Court has been in progress for the past ten days. A great deal of business has been done. has held the balances and many a criminal has paid and is now paying the penalty of a lated law. It has been many a year since Pitt county has had such a court as this one. More has evidently been done for the suppression of crime and the fusion of morality, for good gov- and obedience to law, than was ever accomplished here before. A large part of this has been done through the charges and comments of Judge First came his charge to the Grand Jury. We referred briefly to this last week. This has been supple- by succeeding charges and comments that show it was but the beginning of a of such charges which were to, in a largo measure, revolutionize the existing opinions of even law abiding citizens as to the justice, aims, objects and ends of the law and the manner and obligation of obeying it, and the untold and good which would re- to each citizen and the com- at by the proper ob- of its requirements. We heard a minister say from his pit during the past week that the Grand Jury charge was the best he ever heard, that it contained more law, more morality and more than all the charges to juries to which he ever listened and in consequence was worth more to the people and good government. Some of the citizens of the town were arraigned before Judge Connor for playing cards during the week. His lecture to them was full of sound, solid, whole- some admonitions, and must have made them resolve never again to indulge in this habit, so fruitful in demoralizing its victims. He advised them if they could not make a living by their present they had better others in which could, and let gambling alone. Not only these but many others who heard his remarks must have seen the evil to which such a course leads. We heard one of the parties re- mark afterwards that he felt fully compensated for being arraigned in the benefit derived from the lecture. This way of enforcing the law makes men better and makes them do right because it is right and not alone through fear. Another instance we recall now was the to the in reference to the proper raising of their children, forth by a case then under consideration- He told them they could see from what was then transpiring that the white people were to help them if they would do right.

There will be one blank in the Exposition to all of the Pitt conn people who visit it. They will look in vain to see anything done by their county to show to the world that her resources are equal, if not superior, to any county in the State.

The case against George Dudley for murder was tried on Thursday of last week. The special drawn was called in and the following jury selected to sit upon the W. A. Stokes, Charles E. C. Smith, Jacob Joyner, B. A. Davenport, ton, Jr. W. Allen, W. W. Little. E. J. Lang, E. C. W R. Turner and W. James. Peter Clark was the principal wit- for He that on the of May he with Irvin Joyner, George Dudley and Redmond Blow was at the latter's house. George and Redmond played cards and got into a dispute over cents in the progress of the game. George said the cents belonged to him and Redmond said he was liar. George asked Redmond if be did not like it. Redmond said no. George was sitting in rocking chair and Redmond was standing over him with bands on his hips George said, well you take revenge out me, here I am. Redmond said no like you too well to hurt you. Redmond turned off. George jumped up out of his chair and cut at him but did not hit him. He then caught hold of Redmond with his left arm and backed up lo the side of the and stuck his la him. Witness said he ran out and Red- called him back and said that George had cut him, to go for the doctor. Witness went back in the house. George and Redmond were standing at the table at which had been playing cards. Redmond was pulling the shirt out of the bole made in his body by the knife. He said, George sec what you have done. George said you made me do it, I am sorry tor it, crime and go for the doc- tor and I will pay all doctor bills. They started toward the door and Redmond fell on bis . and said be was too weak to go. Witness started for Dr. Zeno Brown and George overtook him and went on together. George called doc- tor and told him to come down that Redmond bad cut himself. Doctor came down asked George how I Redmond got cut. George said lie fell on his knife. They all started to Redmond's and when about half way George left them. When witness and doctor reached Redmond's, George and Redmond's grandfather were there. Dr. Brown asked Red- bow he got cut. George an- that he fell on his knife. Redmond's grandmother came in and asked witness how he got cut. George answered and said that he fell on bis knife. George told the doctor to attend lo Redmond and he, George, would pay for it. Witness told Redmond to tell the doctor how he got cut. doctor was to come -gain in morning. Jesse L. Mayo, officer who rested the prisoner near Richmond, and the grandfather of deceased were put upon the stand but was not of much importance. Dr. Zeno Brown testified that be was called to see Redmond Blow by George Dudley and Peter Clark. George got back first. Found Red- on the floor wounded with a cut in the abdomen. Saw him the next day, he was worse. The wound caused bis death. Redmond said lie fell on his knife and cut him-. If. Told it three limes. Do not think it possible he could have made the wound himself. Redmond said he had the in bis pants pocket. Had the knife been in his vest pocket the wound would have been higher up. pants pockets were very deep. The wound was cross ways the body. The State rested the case here. The defense had no witness. In the argument before the jury speeches were made by Solicitor Woodard and Col. G. W. Johnston for the prosecution, and by Mr. F. G. James and Col. Harry Skinner the In his instructions to the jury Judge Connor said, from a of the whole of the the jury are fully satisfied that the deceased was known by and bore the name of Redmond Blow and that he came to his death by a wound inflict- ed upon his body by a knife in the of the prisoner at bar, in the manner and under the stances testified to by Peter Clark, only witness introduced and in- in regard to the manner in winch the wound was by deceased, I charge you that oner at the bar is guilty of murder. There is no evidence tending to ex- the act or mitigate offense to manslaughter. If, however, your minds are not brought to a full con. that a person by the name of Redmond Blow bas come to bis death or that if such a person has come to his death, it was from s wound in- by the prisoner, that is if your minds are left in doubt whether the wound was inflicted by de- ceased upon himself by falling upon his knife or was inflicted by the oner or by other person, you should give to prisoner the fit of the doubt and acquit You should carefully consider whole of evidence, the character and bearing of the witnesses, their re- to the deceased, and the per, bias or interest of witnesses. You should not permit any feeling of sympathy for or prejudice against the prisoner or deceased to affect your verdict. Yon should not permit the consideration of the effect of your verdict to affect minds, except to cause you to examine and gate testimony with great care and arrive st your conclusion with caution. The case was given to the jury about o'clock Thursday evening. They remained in consultation until o'clock Friday evening when a guilty was returned. The prisoner was brought before court Saturday afternoon and bis counsel offered two motions relative to errors. These were overruled by his Honor who proceeded to pass sentence upon the prisoner. His lecture before sen- is spoken elsewhere in this paper. The sentence of court was that George Dudley be taken to the jail of Pitt county there to re- main until Friday, the 4th day December, of the present year and on that day to be taken by the Sheriff execution prepared by law, a the hours cf and o'clock, and be by the neck until he lie dead. Notice was given by the prisoner's counsel that an appeal would be taken to the Supreme Court, but up to the lime of the Reflector in press it is not definitely n- ed win or not the lie sent up.
