LIGHT AND SHADOW.
You who judge by what you see,
O'ten fail to judge aright ;
Stars are shining solemnly,
In the day as in the night ;

MK! All the day they lie concealed

By the glory of the sun,
But at eve they stand revealed
In the azure, one by one,

So the daylight of the smile
May but veil the human face
Hiding for a little while
Doubt and care and sorrows trace ;
So, when shadow clouds ef woe
O’er a happy face arise,
Still beneash the shadows glow
Stars of joy in gentle eyes.

Life is arched with changing skies,
Rarely are they what they seem ;
Smiles we have, and also sighs—
Much we know, but more we dream;
Lock beneath the outward show
To the shadow or the light,
And from what you surely know
Learn to see’ and judge aright.

 

A Fickle Lover.

Winston, N. C., March 28.—The
particulars of a peculiar marriage have
just been received here. ‘The event was
celebrated in’ Goldsboro last Wednes-
day night. Miss Sallie Lee Mitchell
and Mr. John D. Smith are the names
of the contracting parties, both of whom
formerly resided in Winston. Recently
Mr. Smith sent out invitations announc-

Goldsboro. Miss Mitchell, his present
bride, was to be one of the attendants.
She left here for that city for the pur-
pose of witnessing the coming nuptiais.
After her arrival there, however, she
met Mr. Smith, and the two (who, by
the way, were old sweethearts) renewed
their former affections. The first invi-
tations were then called in, and Mr.
Smith, in a few: days, sent out a fresh
“batch” notifying his triends of his
change of mind. According to the
first. announcement he was to have been
married in the First Presbyterian
church at Goldsboro, but the marriage
took place at a private residence. Miss
Mitchell was married in the dress she
had prepared for her duties as brides-
maid.

 

Week Ahead of the World.

A special from Tacama, Wash., dated
March 30th, says: It was Easter Sun-
day yesterday on the Pacific slope, al-
though probably not more than halfa
dozen people knew it. Those who aid
know it are ambitiout astronomers and
mathematicians. They find that the
first full moon after the spring equinox
put in an appearance on this coast short-
ly after 10 o’clock Saturday night ; and
it is a fact that the first Sunday after the
first full moon after the spring equinox
is Easter Sunday the world over. But,
in this peculiar case, said to be the first
instance of the kind.| since the | the be-
ginning of the Christian era, only this
part ot the Pacific slope has its Easter
Sunday a week in advance of the rest of
world. When the moon filled Satur-
day night, reckoning by Pacific-cost-
time, it was already Sunday in New
York and London, Consequently, for
the East and the remainder of the
world, excepting the Pacific coast, the
first Sunday after the first full moon

until next Sunday.

THE MURDER TRIAL.
The. Jenkins, Lanear Jenkins and

“ Geerge Davis Arraigned for the
Murder of Patrick Whitehurst.

 

At the opening cf Court this morn-
ing at 9:30 o’clock, The. Jenkins, La-
nier Jenkins and George Davis were

charge of murder. The grand jury
found a true bill against these and also
against William Jenkins, but the latter
run away about thetime of the death
ot Whitehurst and has not been cap-
tured.

The regular jury for the week was
first called and seven of them excused,
the other five being retained on the
murder case. Then calllng of the spe-
cial venire was ordered, and it was ex-
actly 12 o’elock when the last of the
twelve jurors was selected and Judge
Boykin instructed Clerk Moye to em-
pannel them.

The jury to try the case is composed
of William McArthur, Seth Tyson, W.
J. Jackson, D: J. Holland,*Caleb Can-
non, J. J. Tucker, Josephus Gaskins
H.C, Hemby, Fred Edwards, G. B.
Kilpatrick, Ceaser Blount and J. C.
Tripp.

The witnesses for both sides were
called and sworn and were ordered kept
separate without the room while the
case was in progress.

The police census of Raleigh, just
taken, gives that city 13,081 popula-

Hon. C. M. Stedman, ex-Lieutenant
Governor of North Carolina, will move
to Atlanta from Asheville May 1st, and
enter the practice of his profession, law.

At Concord some days ago some
one entered the Episcopal church and
robbed the box that contained the con-
tributions for the poor. About $6 was
taken, together with a bottle of wine
which was gotten from a chest.

 

On a plantation, in Mississippi, lives
an old “before the war” darky, too old
to do any work harder than throwing
feed to the poultry. She has known
no other home, and is a character.
Visitors to the plantation always go to
her cabin, and to their question,
“How are you this morning, Aunt
Chris ?” never fail to receive the fol-
lowing reply: “Well, honey, I’m

Dr. Kingsbury, the able editor of
the Wilmington Messenger, reviews a
book and cautions his readers against
it—because the morals of the book are
not such as to recommend it to chaste
people. Then a chronic kicker says
that the doctor only gave the work
popularity by condemning it, and , thus
prompted pure women to eat’ of for-
bidden fruit by its perusal. The doc-
tor replies by saying that such cattle
need but little pompting. © He is right.
