About years ago tho world was gladdened by tho coming of a Savior. It is well that the of this happy event is so wide spread and so enjoyed. It is that many customs have crept into its ob- that rob it of much of its religious significance, yet there are still many things that remind forcibly the thoughtful of the hap- is designed to celebrate- Many of its customs should never grow old because they largely augment the happiness of the most innocent of this world. That custom which deserves to live longest we believe is the visit of Santa Claus to that interest- part of the human dear little children. No one can fail to be made happier and better as he sees the joyous little as they beam forth with unalloyed happiness at the of the little gifts of their ideal of givers. No one. either, should ever dis- courage the custom of friend presents. All are made better thereby. All are happier. Remembering the poor, too, is one of the most Christ-like customs that still cling to the observance of the day. This is too little by us all. The happy reunion of families and friends long separated by time and space cannot fail to point to the grand reunion which is to as the great final result of the advent of Him whose natal day the occasion celebrates. These and other similar customs deserve to live as long as time shall exist and ought to be by all of us. On the other hand those things which are wicked and tend to de- the hallowed influences and tender associations of the day ought to be discouraged and con- until they shall cease to form so largo a part of its by many. Tho now bespeaks for all of its many readers and patrons a joyous one unmarred by sin and debauchery but one in keeping with the in- finite happiness it was designed to commemorate. To one to all we say, merry, merry it appears that Cleveland re- four thousand more votes in North Carolina than Governor- elect Carr did. This does not tally with predictions made by many that Hip farmers would not vote for Cleveland. Every that is made shows that he was the strongest man that could have been nominated at Chicago. AN APPRECIATED LETTER. Several days ago the editor of the received a letter from ODe of the foremost men of North Carolina which he intended to publish sooner, but only until now had opportunity. We more than can be expressed here that part which refers to us individually, and sure that the other members of the State press will appreciate what is said of them collectively. No man is more interested in the welfare of North Carolina than is Col. Btu- and no man is more ready than he to praise to those who labor in behalf of the State- The letter N. C, Nov. D- J. Esq., Greenville, N. C have intended for time to write you and con- you on your enterprise in having on your Wednesday's issue of the 9th inst., such a com- account of the election. It was a surprise to me to be able to obtain from your Wednesday's paper about as much information on the subject as I could get from any paper that I received that day- This was certainly quite a feat of journalism, and you should be congratulated. It seems to me when we ascribing to certain parties the credit for our recent success, we ought not to forget that to the Democratic press of the State as much credit is due as to any one source. At a time when few were raising their voices in behalf of the Democratic party, the Democratic press came out in no uncertain sound and rallied the hesitating Democracy around the banner of tho pure faith, and I hope in the distribution of the re- of the victory they will come in for their share of the reward. Yours very truly. Wk- H. S- The Press of the South are pretty unanimous in favoring the extra session of Congress and is much feeling in favor of it at Wash- and in the North and West The people have asked the Demo- party to take control of the legislation and change the policy of this government and it seems reasonable that they should ex- that this be done as early as possible. Senators Gorman and Brine were appointed on the com- to advise with the Demo- in Wyoming, Kansas, Ac, where the Republicans are to steal the Legislature, so th.-t they can elect Senators and if keep the United States Sen- ate- The Democrats may expect good work from any committee composed of these three men- A bill has been introduced in Congress to the time of the meeting of Congress from De- to March. If this should pass as it ought there will be no necessity for an extra session to be called after Mr. oration. There is no sense in requiring that more than a year should elapse after an election before the men who are elected shall begin to serve their constituents. A few suggestions to all may not out of place just now on the eve of the joyous holidays that now almost upon us. First, be careful what you think thoughts may lead to deeds. Second, be careful what you say you may regret too late. Third, be careful what you do one act may mar many days of after life- Fourth, be careful what you see Vice b a monster of SO frightful mien, That to be hated needs but to be seen ; But seen to oft, familiar its face. We first endure, then pity, then Fifth, be careful what you hear hearing of may lead you to evil; it may direct you- Sixth, be careful how you think, speak, do, see and hear, and life will not be filled with regrets. It is so late now that we do not print our full report of the sixty- second annual meeting of the State Convention held in to 12th From the of interest and attendance it was the most successful meeting in the history of tho convention. In every department of work the reports showed had been large increases during the year, and the amounts expended footed up A large gain in membership was also reported. Subscriptions were taken to help various objects during the coming year and large amounts raised in cash and pledges. The discus- on different topics, as well as the sermons delivered, were excel- lent and much enjoyed by the large congregations. Raleigh has heard no better preaching. Raleigh entertained the Con- handsomely and with characteristic North Carolina hos- Tho home of the writer while there was with the excellent family of Prof. D. H- Hill, one of the faculty of the A. M. College, whose exceeding courtesy we long remember. A visiting editor returned home from a trip to Greenville recently and boastfully in paper of having obtained twenty-one ad- for his coming Xmas edition and nineteen annual sub- while here- The first is that this was a good piece of journalistic enterprise, but when it is known that the sum total received for the twenty one advertisements whole page he and the nineteen annual sub- is only the question arises, did the said editor throw in a year's subscription to bis paper in order to receive a dollar advertisement, or did he throw in the advertisement to get a subscription Either he must have considered the ad worth less or that a year's subscription to his paper is of no value. It is just this kind of shoddy Cheap John transactions that help to bring North Carolina journalism in more or less disrepute, and prevent it reaching the high standard it should maintain. The of Carolina has labor- ed hard to bring the profession up to that sphere where it could de- the highest estimation of the people, but as long as there are those who, to say the least, stoop to methods in the conduct of the j business tho pro. will suffer. i FROM THE UNIVERSITY. Chapel Hill, N. C, Dec. 1892. Mb. that the election is over and your readers will have time to think about some- thing else than politics, if you will allow me a little space in your columns I will try and tell the pie of Pitt county something about what we are doing here. Three years ago when entered college there were less than two hundred students on the roll, since that time our number has been steadily increasing and at the be- ginning of this year we opened with a Freshman class of over one hundred and we have now on our roll three hundred students. Now this means two things That we are doing better work as an and that the people of North Carolina finding it out and are seizing the opportunity to educate their sons for the great life work that lies before them- Not only are the people of North Carolina awakening to the advantages offered by the University, but those of other States as well and we have representatives here from Pennsylvania, Virginia, see, South Carolina and Texas, and our president says that this scholastic year shall close the voices of three hundred students will shout the white blue- The boys are now worked up to fever heat excitement over the laurels won by our Foot Ball Team in the recent series of frames play- ed in Durham, Nashville and At- ; playing four games end each time leaving the opposing forces with nothing but a big zero with which to count their score. University of N- C. of Alabama, sixty to nothing. University of N. C vs. Vander- of Tennessee, thirty-four to nothing. . University of N. C vs. of Virginia, twenty six to nothing. University of N. C vs. Trinity College of N- C, twenty four t nothing. This places the University tho champion of the South- We have the finest trained team m the South if these results may be taken as a Among the of this team is a Pitt county boy, G. Roscoe Little, who stands to none his place, and when good playing is desired Roscoe can always be relied upon. On the base ball team is E. A. Jr, whose fielding is always certain and in the coining season of base ball we predict that the University will again bear off the honors. banquet Friday night by the faculty and students to the eleven was a success and every one came away that it was good to have there. I would like to write more, Mr Editor, but time will not but hope to let you hear from University again some time in the future. like having holidays. Yes, North Carolina has attractions too. It is a lovely State, but the lands are work makes them worse, people do not get out of their debts, but get deeper in, and poor, old North what will become of There are a great many North Carolinians out here and prosper- They love North Carolina, they like to visit it, but to live there any more. I fear have worried you too long, but I wish young hopeful men would come out here and better their lot. Here you need not put your barn and smokehouses under lock, you need not lock your doors in the night, there is perfect of everything. The picked cotton is lying out in the field until a bale is complete, nothing is touched. I will let you hear from me from time to time, until next summer, when I shall see you again. Truly yours, J. A. DE LETTER FROM TEXAS. Gonzales, Co. December 3rd Editor a little over three weeks ago. I was last time in Greenville and at your office, I had requested you to send the to this stating that I would leave North Carolina, i. e. the Peasant little town Farmville a days. Now I am almost three weeks hero and the has not made its appearance yet. I miss the spicy paper, for I like to hear what is going on in Pitt county, where my family is still residing, and where I have made the acquaintance of a many a noble son of North Carolina during my ten-mouths stay. Of course when the cold set in my heart was longing for the land of flowers and glorious Texas, where jack frost is almost powerless, where even now in December, nature is clothed in beautiful verdure, where lovely flowers greet and charm the eye everywhere, where during the day the temperature rises to degrees, the night we have balmy breezes with dew, and OW flower gardens show a flora that would indeed surprise visitors from the land of ice and snow. My wife writes from Farmville that is so bitter cold there that water freezes out-doors it is exposed only half an hour, and here we take off our coats and do our chores in shirt-sleeves without even wear- undershirts. I brought my overcoat from North Carolina and I do not know what to do with it. I am sleeping out in the piazza with only one blanket me. And the formers, what smiling faces do they have.

Speaker mail has been unusually large this week, owing to the unfortunate occurrence at the banquet of the New York Re- form Club, but he still maintains tho dignified position has occupied from tho first. He has made no complaint and will make none; and neither he nor his friends have ever even for a moment entertained the belief that President-elect Cleve- land had any other connection with the banquet than that of tho chief guest of honor. As usual, the Re- publicans have tried to make mountains out of mole hills, and to make it appear that the Demo- party was already divided into two great factions, with the at the head of one tho Speaker of the House at the head of the other. It is tho wish to see tho Democratic divided that is father to tho false statement.

Monday night an hailed at the home of Mr. Whichard, when the latter went out told him that his wife's sister, who lived over in Ma tin county, was very sick, and if they wanted to see her alive they had better go there. The stranger also said that as he was from Martin over this way he passed the house and the family asked him to stop and deliver this message at Mr. Which- Mrs. Whichard was attracted by the conversation between her husband and the stranger and out to they were talking. As she drew near them the stranger retreated and she did not recognize him. Next day Mr. Which- ard took his wife to the home of her sis- and found the latter in perfect health, and that no message had been sent as told by the stranger. This led Mr. to believe that something was wrong and he turned to go back borne at once. He stopped at bis father's just night, left his wife there, borrowed a gun and accompanied by one of his brothers went on to his home. When he came in sight of his house about o'clock It was on Are. As he drew nearer he thought he saw a man with a torch walk through the house. He stopped to hitch his horse and ran up to the house could not see any one. He only had time to save one bed from the building, everything else being destroyed.
