C. Luxury cf Travel. A recent trip over the Royal Blue lire. New York to Washington and re- turn, impressed the writer most strongly as to the wonderful possibilities regard- speed and luxury in railway travel in America. Having been in nearly every State in the Union over a part of Europe we are prepared to feel ourselves acquainted with railway transportation thoroughly, and while in no way failing to recognize the splendid service furnished the public by the great railway lines of America, the writer be- that he is staling nothing too strongly in saying that in his there is not a service in the world, which taken as a whole, will compare with the famous Blue Line, I of tho Central Railroad New Jersey, the Philadelphia and Reading and Baltimore and Ohio Railroads. Not only is the time made between these points, via ibis line, the quickest ever made between New and Washington, but with a road bed that is simply perfect, and an equipment so luxurious as to leave to be desired, it furnishes no doubt the finest service of any line in the world. Every train via the Royal Blue Line is vestibuled from end to end, and consists not of the most luxurious p. and sleeping cars ever made by the Pull- man Palace Car Company, but also of palatial day coaches far superior to tho parlor cars run on many lines, with smoking fitted in drawing room cars. Although the service is so superior the time so quick, on no train arc there any extra charges. To those who desire accommodations the drawing room or cars only the regular additional charges are asked, and on all of the trains vestibuled day coaches are run open to public with- out any extra charges whatever. The dining car service attached to the Dal trains in keeping with the splendid character of the line's services and the cuisine equal to the best hotels of the country. It is no wonder that the Royal Blue Line has attained phenomenal pop K and not attained its n by any other reason than that it do- It. It so incomparably to any service ever inaugurated be- tween New York and Washington that it would be the public did not it so certainly no one who wants the best should take any other, and it is considered that for the finest service In the world no additional charges of any description are required, it should receive, does, the endorsement and patronage of the p Leaner.

Alexander otherwise was pulling his boat tip harbor, and as he pulled, with long, even strokes that many ft college crew might have envied, he looked with contempt and dis- at the lobster pots that filled the stern opposite him. don't wonder the boys hate and despise for being only a fish-boy, as Ned calls mo. but I don't sec as it is any of their business, anyway, what I he grumbled. wouldn't so much if I hadn't beaten thorn last week in tho race. Gee wasn't Nod Var- in his at this remembrance Sandie gave such n pull that he nearly ran down a rowboat, and was to his senses by it clear voice calling out, there, Sandie, suing to run me down and looking around Sandie beheld one of those boys, but one who had always been kind to him when the other boys were down on him. With one or two vigorous strokes the new-comer, Ray North, brought his boat alongside and holding the two boats together with one sunburned hand, he brought his merry tanned face look squarely sulky one. he said in a tone he tried to make severe, is all row about Ned says that. you smashed into his boat night, and carried aw his boom and broke things up generally, and he threatens to make things lively for you. What did you do it for What is tho use of that sort of thing I know you hate the boys and they have been mean to you, but there is a limit, you know, and you can't go round de- property like a was all the reply that Sandie made as ho settled his oars more firmly in his grasp. he is if he told you that replied Sandie. here, Ray North, you know all you boys hate me since tho scrape at the all; don't be so sweeping in your remarks, Sandie; I don't hate you and you know if Sandie's voice softened a little in spite of himself as ho went you don't, but the rest do. The way of that smash was I was up tho harbor last night in my sail boat, and Ned and three other boys were out in the a and they bothered mo all the way in, arid when I was most to my they tried to cut across my I was going at a humming speed, and couldn't stop, so I ran into them. I am glad of it, and I hope I smashed the boat badly, and it's only part of what I will do when I fret the I am ashamed of let go my boat, Ray, I'm in a hurry; I won't hurt you any- it is not myself, or Ned, or any of the boys, but yon yourself, Sandie, that I think of, to give way to such a wicked, wicked wait and was all the answer Sandie made, as with a strong push ho shoved the boats apart, and with quick stroke soon put a broad sheet of water be- tween him and Ray. For some days the boys kept a watchful eye oat for Sandie and his revenge. fortunately for Ned and his story of the col onion, old Cap- Hunter had the whole performance and unhesitatingly declared that Ned was a rascal or a fool to run in front of a boat Ned and his friends were left to make a choice between the two epithets. Meantime Sandie was watching his chance, it came, as chances often do, at a time and in a man- wholly unexpected. One afternoon about a week after the talk with Ray, Sandie was coming across the bay in his small sailboat. It was a dull, cloudy afternoon, tho sea was kicked up into a rough chop, and the wind came in fierce squalls and gusts from the puffy, low hanging clouds. It had taken all Sandie's seaman- ship to keep his small boat upright and he was glad to be almost tho lee of the when look- to sea he saw a sight that for a moment paralyzed About a to port of him a small yacht was straggling with tho waves, tho persons on board of her had lost all control, evidently, of both sail and helm, and as Sandie at the yacht, a gust of wind struck her, and pausing for an instant on the crest of a huge wave, with a sickening plunge she turned completely over throwing her crow into the water. She was near a roof called Men's Reef as she went over, and Sandie could see that the crew had managed to swim to the reef. He had at once turned his boat's head to the place of the disaster, but is he caught sight of the yacht now drifting rapidly down on him, he saw it was Ned boat, the Vera. Then those four forms on tho reef must his enemies. They were safe now, for it was dead low- tide, but at high tide tho reef was almost covered with water and what then No other boats were visible on tho sea, the rough weather keeping the yachts in the harbor and nothing but these crazy would have ventured out- Hero his revenge ready to hand. All ho had to do was to sail home, and leave them, and the hungry sea would work his revenge, without any more thought from him. And as he thought this, there swept over him the that, though he was, he came of a nice that had again and again risked their own lives to save others, here he was going to let four drown. With a little gasp of horror at his own wickedness, he quickly bore down for the reef. Tho wind was right abaft, with the main sheet run out almost as far as it would go, the tiller held firmly in his grasp, his little cockleshell of a boat flew over the waves that threatened every mo- to engulf it. The four boys saw him coming, and with and waving of arms watched with feverish inter- est the approach of the boat that meant life to them. Sandie had lost his hat, and as ho stood grasp, the tiller, with all his crop of hair standing out over his face, ho looked queerer than ever; but if he had been a veritable angel he could not have been more or been more welcome to the four watchers on the reef. The boys did not try to thank him as they tumbled hastily and exhausted into the boat, but when the was reached safely and they were landed, each one of them grasped his hand and tried to speak their shame and thanks as best they could. But whether the boys thanked him or not Sandie had learn ad his lesson well, and through the naval life longed for by him that the gratitude of the rescued fathers opened up to the horror of that moment, when he held four lives in his hand with intent to throw thorn away, followed him closely and kept him from any form of or revenge.

There is seldom any rain on these plains. Nearing Colorado the country becomes hilly. After passing B few smaller places La Junta La is reached, the point where the Santa Fe one branch going out to the city of Denver. Being two hours from Trinidad. I telegraphed to our former townsman, Hon. S- S- Wallace, who has been living in that city for years, that I be glad to see him at tho depot. Stepping off the train there it was a pleasure indeed to see both Mr. and Mrs. Wallace. I have spent no minutes of the trip more de- that in talking to them. Mrs. Wallace did not appear to have grown a day older, but seemed as young and buoyant as when she first left her old home in Greenville. While the years had put a few streaks in Mr. lace's locks and seems to grow old but slowly and retains all his youthful vigor. He is a man of recognized ability in tho local prof of his section, and I was glad to know he has met with much success and prosperity in his western home. The city of Trinidad is in midst of the mountains, and has an altitude of about feet. Snow capped mountains are in full view and it was so cold here that people had fires in their houses all day. From Trinidad to the top of mountain, a distance of miles, the grade is feet to the mile, and affords beautiful views in the ascent. In some places the reminded me of the West North Carolina road over the Blue Ridge from Round Knob to the tunnel- Near the top of mountain, which belongs to the Rocky range, the road passes through a tunnel three quarters of a mile long- This is feet sea level. Reaching such an elevation and in the mi of mountains covered with snow, the air is rarefied that it very sensibly affects the breath- of persons unaccustomed to it, I was told that persons with sometimes suffer seriously in passing over this mountain- To make the steep grades in the as- cent two. frequently three locomotives are necessary. There were three to our train. The de- scent was easily and rapidly made with one. On this route only the South Eastern portion of Colorado is traversed, and a few miles west of the we were in New Mexico. At o'clock a stop was made at Los Vegas a new city that has population- Leaving this city our party took to their berths and the night knew nothing of what was transpiring in the great desert surrounding. And perhaps it was fortunate that we all oblivious of what occurred, other- wise somebody might have been a trifle frightened. Arising early next morning it was ascertained that the train had been consider- ably delayed during the night, at one there being a dead stop of half an hour for sand to be re- moved from the railroad track. Across our path had passed what is called in the desert a sand storm, and the drifting sand had in some covered the roadway. However, there was no trouble ex- the delay, and Saturday morn- found us whirling along across the plains of New Mexico as merrily as ever. And what a country this is Stretching out both sides of the railroad was a vast sand barren that looked like nothing could live upon it. In most places there was scarcely any vegetation but scrub- by sage An interesting freak of nature was that along the journey across this arid desert the land scape was abruptly broken by great boulders and of rocks towering their heads like mountains on either side, that help a constantly changing panorama of views passing the eyes of the traveler- Sometimes we were near these flying under their shadow or following a serpentine path around them, and again they were far away making a back- ground to the misty distance- At some points these rocks were so smooth and perpendicular as to give them the exact appearance of a huge fort, or at times like a para- pet wall Strange m it may seem, and while at places it looked like there was man or beast to exist anon, were . . signs of habitation all along. The to tho administration, yesterday, rocks, cliffs and showed; in a speech the action many odd dwellings. Perhaps none of these were more interest- in to our party than the Mexican adobe of Those houses are built of very large brick which are made of mud and sun- dried. The houses are only from to feet high, and have the rock or bare ground for a floor. The roof is flat with just enough slant to run off water. This is made by laying poles across from the side walls, crossing these with boards and over a lot of loose adobe. Under the effects of the sun this roof becomes perfectly hard and impervious to rain. The entrance to most of these houses was a small doorway at the ground while now and then the entrance was made through a hole near the roof by means of a short ladder. The houses built on this latter plan were those of the early settlers, who so constructed them as a safeguard against any wild animals that came along. There were frequently whole villages of these adobe houses and they looked queer indeed- At La- is an Indian settlement com- posed of this class of houses, only some of them were than the rural ones. It was the first time on the journey that our party saw a real live Indian. In this reservation are of the tribe as the Pueblo As far back as when the Spaniards occupied this territory this tribe were known to be about half and have never shown them- selves to be hostile. The govern- is interested in them and has established a mission school here- Many of the Indians here have learned our language and can read and write well. There is also a church at Laguna- When the train stopped there a number of squaws and maidens came out to sell articles of small earth- they had to the pas- They are usually ally patronized and love our money. They were all in their native cos- and were objects of much in- though they would not con- verse with the passengers except to tell the price of any article in- quired about- But few men or boys were about the reservation, as they were out at work upon the small farms in tho vicinity, there being a small area of very fertile land here- These Indians are quite expert farmers and raise much grain and vegetables. A young lady from Boston, who has taught a year and a half in this mission school, was on the train and it was my pleasure to hear her much information about the Pueblo In- and the school at Laguna. In western part of New Mex- miles from the continental divide is crossed. This divide has an altitude of feet, the water upon one side flow- to the Mississippi, and upon the other the Pacific slope. Upon the plains I saw immense mounds and beds of a black, rocky sub- stance, that were pointed out as deposits. These beds and the great rock boulders along the plains are no doubt the results of volcanic disturbances and con- of nature in the years long gone.

C, June The rumpus has reached h stage dangerous alike to both of them, and of the prominent Republicans who have left here for Minneapolis within the last hours have ex- pressed themselves as opposed to nominating either Blaine or Secretary Poster is much at the boomerang effect of the document, signed by Fred Douglass, Auditor Lynch, Register Bruce, and Con- which was sent out at his suggestion through one of the press associations early this week for the purpose of Blaine- It is, according to in- formation received here, hurting Harrison more than Blaine. It is among the probabilities that the fight may be at Minneapolis and a dark horse capture the nomination. The Harrison men are making desperate efforts to get Blaine to announce that he will not accept if nominated, and is an induce meet, it is said that Mr. Harrison has offered to nominate his son-in law, Col. to the made by the retirement of Brigadier General David Stan- a few days ago. Mr- Blaine has been very anxious to get Col. promoted, and one of the reasons for his late coolness towards Mr- Harrison was his failure to secure the last vacancy for him. bat the sulks now and the offer may have no effect- THE TEACHERS ASSEMBLY. of the Next The Ninth Annual Session f the above Assembly will convene in N- C- commencing June and continuing through to July 4th. The work of the is annually growing in interest and value to the teachers of our State, and to its influence is largely due the general prosperity which is now being enjoyed by the schools throughout our borders. Its de- midsummer meetings in the own by the at Morehead City, bringing many thousand teachers and their friends for most educational work and in charm- s-nodal intercourse, have given a new and to the teachers and induced Z. stronger support and appreciation of the teachers work among those who patronize the school. And the enjoyments and benefits which the teachers and friends of in North Carolina are to derive from the Assembly are yet but just begun to be realized. Besides the intellectual and social enjoyments of the As- the physical benefits which are derived from the trip cannot be over-estimated. There is which can be so completely and effectually restore strength and energy to thoroughly exhausted nature as the rest and of a sojourn at the seashore. The pure salt air, the plunge in the splendid surf, the excitement of fishing and sailing and the of the presence of the mighty ocean soon make us forget the fatigue of the school room, and every hard-worked teacher finds the recuperation so greatly needed. There is no place in the United States so valuable to the North Carolina teacher as tho sessions of the Assembly. The Executive Committee has been hard at work to prepare a for the coming session which shall of the greatest possible interest and benefit to the teachers who desire to make steady progress in their work- To this end the very highest ability among the profession in North Carolina has been placed at the disposal of the committee for selection, and liberal has been made of this array of talent, ability The work of the session will be properly classified and assigned to special days for each depart- Among the days so far appointed are, and Each day is in the charge of a special committee, which will arrange an excellent of live and interesting subjects with the very best of our popular speakers to present them- In addition to this regular work, there will be two public entertain- and a special course of instruction to teachers, by the inimitable who, as a popular and witty and lecturer, has no equal in America. His instruction will have special reference to the of the blackboard in the school and Sun- day-school, by every teacher, in rapidly illustrating important sons and information.

At the end of his first fifteen years in the profession, he found himself doing the utility parts at the Globe theater, in as has slated. The desired opportunity had not yet come. No manager had ever to see beneath Phineas Gunny's commonplace exterior a soul full of Othello. Yet it was there. One morning tho manager, Mr. Michael Francis, walked upon the stage, and called to one side his stage manager, Mr. Orpheus Smith, and my boy, my daughter is coming home for it The manager's daughter, Miss Francis, was the leading lady at a theater in New York.

For a moment he was speechless. He stared at her intent- until the prompter on, Mr. Gunny; you've played this part a dozen With an effort Phineas recovered himself, and went on with his hues. When he made his exit, Virginia turned to her father and who is that tall, homely man, who stared so oddly at my dear, is Mr. Phineas What a name for an he's a little bit eccentric, but in small When Phineas had reached the shelter of the wings, ho turned to the nearest person, who happened to be tho old an gossip, and can you tell me who that voting lady is, sitting be side- the his Phineas stood and gazed at her long after he had his port- end was at liberty to leave tho A new feeling dawned in his heart.

He daily became more moody and melancholy, and she daily became more sorry for him. At length, morning, while she was sitting at the prompt table during a rehearsal, she saw Phineas standing well back In tho first en- trance and devouring her with his eyes.

She felt that ought to have been very angry, but in spite of herself was pleased. The next time she passed Phineas in tho street completely upset that gentleman by bestowing upon him a smile and a bow. Tho days rolled on, and Phineas Gunny's new passion grew. As for the young lady, her pity for her strange lover also grew. Site always spoke to him kindly, which added fresh fuel to tho which was con- his being. Tints matters went on until Virginia bad been in two weeks. Tho citizens of that enterprising then conceived the brilliant idea of giving a grand benefit to the young lady whose talents shed luster upon the town.
