Our dear uncle wandered from his home and dear Tuesday morn- August 26th, about o'clock, and after many untiring searches his body was found in Tar river by the captain of the boat ten miles above Washington. His body was brought up on the boat that afternoon, and interred in the family ground the same evening by candle light. For some time his mind had been in an abnormal state, and the tearing down some buildings on his town lots and heart trouble seemed lo perplex him so much, we suppose it caused sudden insanity, and thus he wandered away from his dear home, with its sweet surroundings and plunged himself in the depths of the dark, cold river, perfectly conscious of its mighty dangers.

Thus not only is the Congressional representation, save alone General Ransom, in jeopardy, but also nearly the whole judiciary of the State. To this should be added the officers of the several counties, and finally the Legislature. And so there hangs trembling in the balance the county government system, election laws, the school laws and the management of the penitentiary, and the whole system of internal administration of State and county affairs and the city gov- which the white people have built up. Who will say that they it nothing, for instance, that the towns of Wilmington, New Charlotte, Durham, Winston, Hen- Tarboro, Wash- and and perhaps a dozen others, where the cans have a majority, be turned over into their keeping.

Ho wears the with dignity, and while he pushes the work in a rapid business like manner, there is the utmost accuracy and precision about him. His charge to the Grand Jury is pronounced a good one. it not a long. tedious rehearsal of every crime and technicality as is so often heard from the Bench, but was a clear and practical syn of the duties of the Jurors, given so plain that they readily understood what was expected of them. He is a good Judge, and possesses an excellent knowledge of the law. We have heard the expression several times this that it was a pity he was defeated for the nomination. Washington. D. C. Sept.

Editor see in your last week's issue of the an article in which my name and some remarks I make to yon. I endorse your article and think it not only to the point, to the interest of every tobacco grower in the and every business man in Greenville also. If there was a to warehouse backed up with a factory, in my honest it would be a great to the tobacco growers but a business to your For by stock company in Greenville a warehouse prize factory with machinery attached to make cigarettes, the farmer's and stock company would have a double chance in profits on the tobacco raised in county. We could have a stated day in every week for a brake, buyers would then come to see our famous, Pitt tobacco, and in case it did not bring such prices as was satisfactory it could be bid in for the company of the factory. In so-doing if the planter lost in one way he would gain in the other. It behooves Greenville to for it, as it would be the means of thousands and ten times thou- sands of dollars thrown down to the business men of Greenville that would go to other places, that might and could be kept in our county and town. Mr. Editor, I am a home man. I believe in home enterprise The way Pitt county is going on it will make in a few years and Oxford rich. Let us all join in together in one solid phalanx and enrich ourselves. We get all this up and no one man can be hurt by the enterprise. There are enough men in the county and town to get ibis enterprise started and not half try. If there is in tobacco this year there will be in 1891.- Think of the poor men that have grown rich out of such enterprises as this Carr, Blackwell, Duke, Cooper, Davis, and a host of others that I could mention. There is money in this old county and town. I say lets have it and not let it leave Its in our grasp and we must hold it. M. C. S. Bring The Factorial.

The conductor realizing that something was wrong rushed to the door of Lit. caboose and looked ahead. Taking in the sit- at a glance ho uncoupled his caboose and applied the brakes stopping it only a few yards from the river. The train shot out on the bridge, the immense drive wheels bouncing along over the timbers with crushing force. The bridge could not stand such jars and two spans of it went down, the engine and cars going with it, the whole being completely wreck ed. The who failed to jump from the train went down with the wreck to the bottom of the river and came out with only a cut on the hand where he had caught hold of something. He fell a distance of about feet and his escape almost miraculous. After getting all the goods out of the ruins the wreck Lad to be burned up.

The train shot out on the bridge, the immense drive wheels bouncing along over the timbers with crushing force. The bridge could not stand such jars and two spans of it went down, the engine and cars going with it, the whole being completely wreck ed. The brakeman failed to jump from the train went down with the wreck to the bottom of the river and came out with only a cut on the hand where he had caught hold of something. He fell a distance of about feet and his escape was almost After getting all the goods out of the ruins the wreck had to be burned up.
