A very sad incident occurred the other day to a young man in this city which has elicited the sympathies of every one in the community. It was the sudden blindness of Walter Webb, of the New York Veterans of the Civil War. As a part of the census of the pie to be taken during the month June special provision has been made by Congress for ascertaining the names of surviving sail- ors, and mariners who were mustered into the service of the States during the war of the rebellion, the widows of soldiers, sailors, and marines have died.

The pedestal and base are of white granite, on the upper portion of which are four darker hued polished columns so ranged about the corners that it appears supporting the mas- bronze horse and rider above. Upon each side in gilt letters is the word This base and pedestal stand feet above the ground, and the horse and rider making feet more. Competent judges from among the most prominent people of our country pronounce it an excellent work of art and a splendid likeness of the immortal Lee. The occasion of the unveiling of this monument is one never to be forgotten, for after those of this generation have long rested the tomb, history will continue to hand it down through ages yet to come. It was a grand day for the South. It was a proud day for Richmond. That historic city was never gayer. Its principal streets were elaborately decorated their entire length. In this particular no pains or ex- had been spared. Building after building was enveloped in flags and banners, until the streets presented great rivers of color. Right along side each other as if portraying our now firmly united country were the stars and bars of the Confederacy and the stars and stripes of the Union with here and there a tattered battle flag that had cheered many a brave soldier on to conflict. Her busy thoroughfares swarmed with thousands of infantry, cavalry, veterans and citizens, all eager to pay willing tribute to Lee. For days prior to the great event people bad constantly poured into the city, and those, to whose memories the sound of war times is still fresh were ready to say how the clash of drum, the glitter of bayonet, the quick meas- tread of marching soldiery, took them back to those days when the hosts were gathering at Richmond for a different object than that for which they bad now come together. Then they had come to follow their leader and lay down their lives, if need be, a willing sacrifice to the cause which he and they espoused as even dearer than life itself; now the survivors of that great struggle had come to do honor to the of their Chieftain, for comrade to greet comrade once more and to talk over those dear old times which tried men's souls and bound them as brother to brother. Thursday, 29th of May, was set apart as the day for the special exercises of the occasion. Nature smiled propitiously upon the and it with a perfect day. At mid-day a procession formed and marched through the principal streets of the city. This procession contained more than men and was three miles long. In advance of the passed a company of mounted police followed by com- on foot who kept the way- clear through which it might pass. Then came the gallant General Lee, chief marshal of the day, with his assistants about in number, all mounted. in open carriages fol- lowed next, these being a number of surviving Generals of the war, of many of the Southern States, United States Senators, members of General R. E. Lee's family and others. Be- hind the carriages came the sold- the largest gathering of troops in peaceful intent ever known. Hardly a Southern State but what had representatives from among its Guard. South Carolina was first with nine companies; North Carolina next with eighteen com- ; us add here by way of parenthesis that the North Car- troops were as fine a body of men as could be found anywhere in the procession, and no more generous cheering was given any portion of the line than that com- posed of our soldiers and then came Mississippi with two companies; Texas with one com- ; Maryland with a whole regiment; the District of two companies; Alabama, two companies; West Virginia, five companies ; Virginia with her whole guard of infantry, artillery and cavalry ; Georgia and Louis- also having representatives in line. Then there were other societies. The procession was in Hue about five hours. It started at o'clock and after get- ting on the street leading to the a halt was made, the soldiery opened ranks and the veterans passed through, it being arranged that they should be in front at the monument. The head of the procession reached the monument after o'clock and it was before the last com- had arrived. Thousands and thousands of people filled the side- walks, buildings, and stands for spectators along the route and cheered the procession con as it passed. There were many impressive incidents along the line of A no- feature were old uniforms, many of which could be seen, some moth-eaten, some having bullet holes in them and all more or less faded and worn. Whenever one of these passed people shouted themselves almost hoarse. At the monument Gov. called the meeting to order with an appropriate speech and introduced Gen. J. A. Early who was to preside over the Prayer was offered by Dr. who was pastor for both General Lee and President Davis in their life time. General Early then introduced Col. Archer Anderson who was orator of the occasion. His effort was a mas- one. When he concluded Gen. Joseph E. Johnston, under escort of two old soldiers marched to the base of the monument. As General Johnston lay hold of the ropes and drew the veil which exposed the beautiful statue to the view of who were gathered in sight of it, a prolonged cheer went up from the multitude The people fairly shouted while flags, banners and handkerchiefs waved, and old vet- wept and hugged each other. While the cheering was at its highest the which had been stationed in a field just north of the monument, opened fire and kept up continuous booming for several minutes, the infantry in the meantime firing volley after volley, and two regiments of began charging upon each other; the advancing forces, the flash of and the roar of can- non and musketry making up such a sham battle as to give the a good idea of what a war would be, and to the veterans bringing back memories of warlike days. It was amid just such scenes as this, and surrounded by such en- expressions of patriot- ism from those who have loved and ever love the name of Leo, that this statue was uncovered to be kissed by the rays of a sun soon to sink in its evening rest, and to be left with no canopy above save Heaven's own blue dome. And there it stands, a monument to the memory of the departed Chieftain, and a testimonial of the love of his people. At night on the field near the monument was a magnificent dis- play of fireworks, which brought to a close exercises of a day never to be forgotten by the participants, and a day to which we can all look with pride, because in thus honoring Lee we ourselves.

May Mr. Plumb has introduced a in the Senate which en- able us members to learn what I hey are voting when they pass a tariff bill affecting the prices of most. or all of the productions and of the United States. The present practice with tariff bills enables a committee inspired by the pi elected interests to force a bill through without any consideration and which none but an expert can understand. Until the day that the bill is presented to the House it is shrouded in mystery. the party lash is applied The desperate opposition of a industries calls their particular cases notice. A pretense is afforded for airing a little oratory and bill passes. The members don't know why or what they have increased or decreased in duties in the long lists of tariff rates, and a great part of the details of the bill the committee that drafted it are guilty of the same ignorance. The resolution directs that finance committee report to the Senate, connection the tariff bill, a statement showing the duties levied the present law, under the House bill, and under bill it shall itself produce, in parallel columns for convenient comparison examination. committee is specially instructed that where it shall recommend a levy of duty now provided for by law, or increase of rate above that now imposed, to furnish the Senate the reasons therefor each case, writing.

Look For It The Reflector is in receipt a very interesting letter from Austin Tex., written by a gentleman who lived in Greenville in 1835-36, when it was but a small village. He tells something about our town and people in that long ago time that many will find pleasure in reading. The letter will be published next week. At the same time a letter from Florida will also be published. Jail. A broke jail Sunday night.

Just before the exercises closed, Dr, D, L. James, in a few well remarks informed the school that one of its best most faithful teachers had on this occasion bled with them for the last time. He referred to Miss May Bridgers, of Petersburg, who for ten months has been teacher of music at Greenville Institute, and who while here has had charge of one of the Sunday- school classes and over the same very Her engage- at the Institute closing this week she will leave Greenville after the commencement.

Mrs aged years died at her home in Carolina town- ship last Thursday. We regret very much to learn of the of Harriett Rogers, who died at her h me near this county, last Thursday, May 20th. She was years old at the time of her death. We hear of a very sad accident, which occurred at the residence of Mr S. R. Ross, in Carolina township, last Saturday morning. A tub of hot water had been placed on the pi preparatory to house cleaning, and a little year old grandson of Mr. Ross accidentally fell in the boil- water, and was scalded so badly that it died from the effects next morning. A telegram was received in Green- Monday afternoon, stating that Capt. W. A. Darden had died very suddenly that day at Gates, in Gates county. No particulars were given. Capt. home was in Greene county. He was a lecturer the Alliance, and was filling an appointment in Gates at the time of his death. Dates had already been made for him to lecture in Pitt at an early day. In his death Greene county and the State lose a valuable citizen. Little Mary Wales Jones, six year old daughter of M.

The Justices of the Peace of the county met here Monday for the pose of making the tax levy for the next year, and to elect a Board of County Commissioners and a Super- of Education. In making the tax levy the Board of were in session with them. The Chairman of the Board made a statement to the Justices that there was on hand and to the credit of the county between and amply enough to defray all county expenses for the remainder of this fiscal year, and that after the Board was of the opinion that a levy of cents on the would be sufficient to meet all requirements of the county governs for the next year. This is cents lower than the levy of last year. After a full discussion of the matter by the Justices a motion was adopted to make the property levy cents as the Commissioners had recommend- ed. The poll tax levy was placed at cents. The different schedule taxes were levied the same as hereto- fore, A motion was offered to re- place the tax on marriage licenses, but was very promptly voted down, the Justices standing by their de- of a ago that there shall be no county tax on marriage licenses. Several speeches were made upon this question. The matter of constructing a dam and new roadway from the north end of Tar river bridge at Greenville out beyond the high water mark was dis- cussed at length and the Justices authorized the Board of Commission- to expend as much as if upon the same. Quite a number of Justices from various of the county spoke favorably to the project and expressed them selves as anxious to see the roadway built. During this discussion a strong sentiment was developed in favor of working convicts of the county upon this roadway and also upon the roads, and there was a request by vote that the Board of Commissioners make an order to this effect. Such a step will materially lessen the expense of constructing the roadway, and also give a better system of public roads, while at the same time the tendency will be to the lessening of criminal offenses in the county. The Commissioners then withdrew and the Justices went into an of a Board of for the two years beginning December 1st, 1890. The entire old Board was placed in nomination and a number of speeches complimentary of their past faithful service were made, but the highest compliment that could be paid was re-electing them unanimously by acclamation. The present County Superintendent of Public Instruction was also re- elected by acclamation. This coins the work for which the had assembled, and after hear- a brief statement from the Super- of Public Instruction the meeting adjourned, There are inmates in Pitt jail.

If one wants to get a lively sense of what it means to rush through space at fifty or sixty miles an hour he must get on a locomotive. Then only does he begin to realize what trifles stand between him and destruction. A few weeks ago a lady sat an hour in the cab of a locomotive hauling a fast express train over a mountain road. She saw the narrow bright line of the rails and the slender points of the switches. She heard the thunder of the bridges, and saw the track shut in by rocky bluffs and new perils suddenly revealed as the engine swept around sharp curves. The experience was to her magnificent, but the sense of danger was most palling. To have made her complete she should have taken one engine ride on a dark and rainy night. Rev. E. C.
