The week ending Monday, May 17th
was very favorable for agricultural in»
terests and the crop pi ospects haye ce"
cidedly improved throughout the State.
The drought was broken by warm and
generous rains on four days of the week
avoraging nearly 2.00 inches over the
State; and was too heavy with a little
hail at only a few places. The tem-
perature was above the normal to. the
15th after which it turned cooler and
growth slightly checked. The season
was especial'y ravorable for transplant-
ing tobacco whic:: made good progress ,

growing crops which have impréved

with fine rains from 12th to 15th, but
cooler loth and 16th. Land now in
vood condition for cultivation, The
farmers are about up with work. The
rain has turned crops green aud started
them to growing nicely. Corn looks
better but the stand is rath2r poor, caus-
ed chiefly by ravages of cui worms. It
is now being plowed. Cotton replanting

The Meeting.
Rev. N. M. Wataon led the opening
services again at the meeting in the
Baptist church last night and the con"
gregation was larger than on the night
belore. We never saw Christians cfthe
town working more earnestly together
than ia this meeting and it foretokens a
great blessing. Rev. Mr. Elsom preach"

was dalice
they could never expect to get to Heav-
en, Atthe close of the sermon a large
number went ferward to ask tor prayers
that they might have more love one for
another. Several unconverted people
also stood to request prayers tor them
selves.
The cottage prayer meeting this
morning was a very precious one and
tull of interest. Requests for prayer
were made there. ~Those who fail to
uttend these meetings miss a blessing
to their souls. The meeting tomorrow
morning wil be held at the home of
Mr. Wiley Brown.
Services in the church every day at

3 oTclock there will be a special mect-

Mr. J. A. Ramsey, who was expect.

near to 600 subdaltern officers have

official reports of the war depart-

that 2,000 so'diery have died ip

~North Carolina must have bet-
ter Public Schools. Her people
are poor because they have no
education. They have strong
arms and abundant natural re
i Ve ~sources, " but generation upon
eration of | the children of the
people rises up unequal to

urces, not by lack of phy-
~| opower and industry, but

world of opportunity within them
aud before them. When a gen-
eration of her citizens have been
invigorated with education, the
whole character of our State will
be changed for the better. Intel:
ligent people know this. Know-
ing it, it is their duty hamanely"
not to say patriotically or religi-
ously"io emphasize it.
daty falls first upon the editors of
North Carolina papers. If they
will plead for a yote in favor of
local taxation in the August elec-
tion, they will do more for the
public good than any one now
dreams possible. The duty falls
ers, the teachers, the public men,
and npon every intelligent citizen;
indeed not citizens only, but upon;
every intelligent woman, too.
The work ot renovating, regever-
ating in truth, or Pablic School
system has commenced. [ive
years mvre of constant effort will
witness the glorious achievement
of a yood and adequate public
in North Carolina; and in that
achievement there will be a clear
prophecy of a North Carolina,
new in strength, new in happiness,
new in wealth, new in government,
new in religion, new but none the
less rich in her glorious past.
With such a vision before us, men
and brethren, let us fight the
present battles against darkness,
against prejudice, against cove-
tousness, sure of the light of a
brighter day whose dawn the eye
of faith even now beholds."Bib-

Ciicago or New York,
mailed tree,
The Newbern Journal, which
does not agrees with Senator
Pritchard politically, had an ar
ticle a few days ago compliment-
ary of the fidelity with which he
sticks to his friends. The Sena-
tor seems to be entitled to all the
credit that is due on that account,
for he 1s certainly a good sticker.
He may haye, and doubtless has,
the regulation amount of osena-
torial dignity,T but he doesnTt
seem to think that this conflicts in
any way with hustling for tho
boys who hustled for him and
helped to make him Senatear, in
which he differs very much from
some other gentlemen who as
soon as they atrike Washington
in the Senatorial capacity become
inflated, forget the ante election
services rendered them, and deem
it beneath their dignity to do
anything to help the men who
did a great deal to help them, un-
less in the case of special friends
jor dependents or members of
their own households. The con-
trast is. creditable to Senator
Pritchard, who acts on the prin-
ciple that one good turn deseryes
another, and that becoming. a
Senator does not release a mat
from obligations incurred when
he peeded friends. Whatever
may be thought of the spoils
system, devotion to friends is a
commendable trait, and Senator
Pritchard has shown that in this
respect he is e stalwart. We
donTt like his politics, but we do
|hke the fidelity with which he
sticks to the fellows who stuck to
~him."Wilmmgton Bier, ora

* After Many Years.
Many years ago a young maa
loved a maiden fair, but from
some cause or other the course of
true love did not ransmooth. At
any rate they did not wed and
their lives drifted rpart.
Time went cn and each married
but to another. Thrice was the
man leit a widower. ~Twenty

husband.
Feeling that it was not good to
~be alone the old suit was recently
renewed, the courtship this time
being done entiely by corres"
pondence. The spark of love that
glowed and kindled in the heart
of each long years ago was soon
| revived, und the sequel was a
marriage without the usual for-
malities ot woomg and winning,
of sighing and waiting.
On the 2ist of April Mr. Jordan
¥. Jones, of Franklin couuty, was
united in marriega to the cbject
of his first love, relict of the late
Dr. Mark Perry, of Warren
county. They met by appoint-
ment in Henderson and proceeded
to Franklinton where the ceremo-
ny was performed. The groom
is seventy six and the bride is
sixty six."Henderson Gold Leaf.

J. R.KENLY,
Captured a Wild Negro. :
A wild negro, about 60 vears
old, a horrible object, was ¢iptur-
ed ten miles north. of Brewster
yesterday by some farmers. His
hair- was matted solidly to his
head with ervde turpcntine,
|making his head lock twice its
normal size. The upper part of
his body was naked and was
covered with coarse hair. He
wore aremarkable pair of short
pantaloons,. consisting of seyen
pairs of old pants, placed one
inside of the uther and quiltea
together with leather strings:
they had evidently seon years of
service. He was birebeaded,
barefooied, and wore no cther
garment than the wonderful pan-
ta'oons. He ran when he saw
the hunters, but they overtook
him.
Since his capture he has acted!
in all respects like ~a beast rather
than a man, his talk being
inarticulate and his intelligence
being a micimu.a. His body is
ahve with vermiv. He will not
eat, but drinks water und tramps!
about the place to which he is
chained like a confined beast. It
is believed he escaped from
bondage before the war, and has
since jiyved in the swamps like a
wild animal. He will be held and! }
tamed.~ Brewton (Ala.) i ispatch
