There will be quite a number of totacco buyers on this market during the coming seasou that were uever kere before. ‘Tobacco asa general thing 1s looking very weil ail over the county but on un average it is the latest crop that we eyer had since 1890. Look out farmers for the August worms. Judging from the numbers of tobaccu flues that have been car- ried out this summer one wouid conclude that there is a very large increase in tobacco acreage iu this cvouoty. ‘Tnere is a consid: erable increase, it is true, remember it has nuw beeu five years siuce most of our farmers put io their flues, aud by this time they ace prevty bai off for the wear aud a» good many who are buying flues this season are replacing their old ones. Last Friday morning we went over to Bethel, spent the furenoon with Mr. Z-D. MeWaorter, and ia the afternoon with him and Rev. Mr. Forbes waiked over to Mr. M,C. S. Cherry’s. We found Mr. Cherry confined to his room, the resuit of an atteck of the L Grippe, two or three years ago. Mr. Cherry says ne has been con- fined almost entirely to his room since January aud his health is very feeble indeed, bat his mind is as bright as a newly coined sil— For sevéi bat Last Saturday the There wastnot a very tendance but just enough for all discussed was the country roads leading to Greenville. Some one suggested that the people of Greene county whe had to bring their tobacco to market over the Adams’ bridge were very anxious to have it repired. O. L Joyner siated that he bad gone before the County Commissioners at their last meeting and was in- formed by them that the last Legislature moved the county line making the creek on which the Adams’ bridge is buil: the line. between Pitt ana Greene counties, and they,the Pits county Com missiouers, would not repair the bridge now unless the County Commissioners of Greene, would help. Mr. W A. Darden stated that the bridge was all right but the butment on the Greene side was in such condition that a load could not be pulled over it and that Mr. J. W. Dixon who was overseer of the road would in a few days repair that part of it. Mr. G@. T. Tysou said that the right step 1n the right direction had neyer beed taken, and if the Tobacco Growers’ Assuciation did nozhing else except to get Some good roads why its mission was a grand and noble one. A committee was appointed to confer with the parties owning al terms Mr.'the Iand from a point on the Cherry represented Pitt county in the lower house of the General Assembly, and in that capacity served his people well and faith- himself the highest esteem of the people of his county. Mr. Cherry has al- ways been a live, active and in- dustrious man and as one of his many friends we sincerely hope that he may be able to rebuild spared for himself Tobacco Grower's met in the Court House. large at- to be comfortable.

The people of Statesville knew a good thing when they see it, consequently they have stood - by the Landmark, which has en- abled it to do more for the town than any other business enter- prise in that thriving little city. A town is judged by the appear- ance ofits local paper, which 1s always atrue index ofthe town from which it is published. Asif in confirmation of the ar. gument here made, the Green- _ ville REFLECTOR, with eqral kind-, ness says - We heard a distinguished citi- zen of Statesville say that he was jnduced to make his home there through reading copies of the Landmark that chanced to fall jnto his hands, his impression be- ing that a town sending out such a paper asthe Zannmark wouid be a good place t live in. This 13 just one illustration among many similar ones that have oc- curred. It isthe home paper that talks for the town, and tosee the business men standing by it shows that they have confidence in their town and believe in maintaining home enterprises. There is eound sense in the propositions here advanced. An -evil tree cannot briag fourth good = fruit and it is eqdally impossible for a dead or dying town to hold alive and first-class newspaper. If, as has been generously said by many papers and people the _* Landmark has attained to ade- good word said of tne Landmark for the paper is what the town bas|she gree of excellence above the av- erage, aud has been able to exert @ helpful inflaence in behalf of its town, it is because the town, un mindfal of political or personal differences, has given the paper a united and generous support: fainess which it could not hav exerted otherwise.

Mr: Eptror:—I notice in this week’s Democrat that Dr. Dodge, of Hamilton, Ill, gives a recipe for hog cholera ; and, while I do not doubt its efficacy, the follow ing is much cheaper, and equally potent: Take enough Doy fen- nel blossoms (known in some sec- tions as “wild chamomile”) to make a strong tea, and give them —say one cup full—(in slop or otherwise), two or three times a week during the cholera season. It is equally potent as a prevent- ative of chicken cholera, by put. ting the blooms in their water trough. It is also an excellent remedy for man, with lung trouble. Take an ordinary handfull of the blos— soms, putthem in one quart of good rye whiskey, aud take a ta ble spoonfall three times a day. “Ah,” says some One, “I thought you were opposed to the use of whiskey.” SolIam, bitterly op- posed.to the use of it as a bever- age, and never use it inany shape or form, but I have very little pa tience with this Puritanical-tom- foolery, which condemns the use of it, strictly as a medicine.

Our best wishes for the lit tle stranger at Gray Gables is that or Wastes Described. i, > 5 b 4 Ld - = He Spends a Great Deal of Money witb His Tailors But Much of It Is for Uniforms, of Which He Has Many. In a chatty article on the prince of Wales and his clothes, a writer in a matter of fact the ‘‘First Gentle- man in Europe” does spend a great deal of money with his tailors. It should be remembered, nevertheless, that much of this is for uniforms. The prince is popularly supposed to ess seventy military uniforms, and this is about accurate. When we remember that a cavalry outfit may cost £150 as a low esti- mate, and that subalterns entering a line regiment rarely begin witha lower disbursement than £50 or £60, the amount that the prince’s uni- forms has cost him is easily to be gauged. The prince, of course, possesses, for the most part, colonel’s uniforms, but as afield marshal he is compelled often to renew the terribly expen- sive outfit suited to that rank, and it is in this fine tunic that he appears at most military ceremo- nials and at royal weddings, or other great occasions of state. In addi- tion, he possesses many naval uni- forms and the dress of a large num- ber of German, Russian and Austrian regiments. Putting aside the question of uni- forms, upon which his royal high- ness cannot spend less than threeor four hundred pounds a year, we come to his ordinary dress. It is admitted universally that very few men in town manage things with more taste or have a quicker eye for good cloth. There are youths, no doubt, whose tailors’ bills are far larger than the prince’s, for he is by no means extravagant, although exceedingly particular about his clothes. ; Nor does he, says the writer, pay absurdly fancy prices, as many peo- rate of a west end house. This meeos that a frock coat may cost him twelve guineas, which most peo- ple would regard as very ‘‘fancy” indeed; a dress suit somewhere about fifteen, trousers four guineas, and an ordinary ‘‘ditto” suit from eight to ten guineas. When in town the frock coat is in- variably worn by the prince. No doubt during the London season be consumes a large number of these articles—perhaps which one will be a light gray. And it is a habit of his never to \wear @. coat two seasons running, even if it has been used only two or |three times by him. As he is in ‘| town perhaps six months in the year, Cassell’s Saturday Journal says: As ple suppose, being charged the usual!) two a month, of} his total of ‘‘irocks’” may be set down roughly at twelve. in dress suits he is sapposed to be particularly extravagant, but this is not really the case. Any man about town has five or six dress suits a year. The prince may have a dozen, but the story told in a ‘con- temporary recently that he had one a@ week is pure nonsense. When the prince is going to New- market he often wears a “‘ditto” suit with light covertoverit. In ‘‘ditto” suits, perhaps, his total would as- tonish the humble man who pays his tailor £30 a year and considers that heavy. It is certain that he never wears one of these suits more than two_or three times, and his stock of them is tremendous. Of shooting suits for the autumn he bas an immense variety, using a different style of dress for battue work to that adopt- ed for ordinary work with the dogs. Here alone for a country dress he can scarcely spend less than a hun- dred pounds a year. In the matter of hats, it is a well- known fact that the prince has three a fortnight, also buying a large number of bowler and square black hats for country use. At Sandringham there is a hat- room with aman whose chief duty it is to keep the prince's ‘‘tiles” ina high condition of polish. In the same palace a number of vast ward- robes contain the bulk of the uni- forms and clothes which are not in regular use. Those large scarfs which are now worn with a frock coat often cost half a guinea. There are scores of up-to-date youths who have fifty pairs of gloves per annum; three dozen shirts would be regarded as an absolute minimum. So far as the prince is concerned, he never wears: a pair of gloves twice, and in this, and in the matter of boots, he is un- questionably the best dressed man in the kingdom.

The man who can give a new way to pay old debts is now in de- mand. The “people” consists princi pally of politicians and statesmen out of jobs. A man never argued himself into heaven yet, but there are lots of them trying to dc it. It don’t take much money to control the man who is always talking about somebody else’s be- ing bought. Free silver talk does not make meat nor gold standard make bread. A “non partisan” is the man who wants his own side to get there.
