I've long since knowed the war is over An’ that the world is rollin’ right ; No red dews fall upon the clover An’ every lily’s spotless white. But what I didn’t know for certain Was this: If England crost the sea An’ foreign flags was round us flirtiu’, Where would the boys of “Dixie” be. But yesterlay—the sunshine streamin’ Upon their curls, so soft an’ sweet, (Me settin in my doorway dreamin’), The children played around my feet. “An’ come!” says Jim, “My gun is ready ! qo An’ there’s my sword !” says little Jack ; “Now, march away there—steady— steady ! We're goin’ to beat the British back |” “Qh, wait !” says little blue-eyed Sally, An’ handed them a fluttering rag ; “Here’s somepin’ makes the soldiers rally— } How can you fight—without a flag!” An’ then I got to ruminatin’, An’ all was plain as day to me ; An’ if it’s war I’m clear in statin’ I know just where the south would be! IN NORTH CAROLINA, Taian Matters Of Interest Over the State. Coenen Two young men in Charlotte. stole a lot of goods from a merchant -by way of having a little fun. Their explana- tion that it was a joke failed to satisfy the owner of the goods, and when they were bound over to court it did not seem altogether so funny. While a large pine log: was, being | sawed Tuesday at the mill of S. R. Fowle & Son the saw came in contact with a bard substance slightly. injuring it. Upon investigation it was found to bea large bomb shell imbeded in the ‘timber six inches deep with the wood and bark entirely grown over it.— Washington Messenger. Mr. John J. Hill, a member of the firm of Parker & Hill at Ahoskie, was overcome by gasin his room in Balti- more last week. He was there for the pruchase of goods, and was found un- couscious in his room at the Carollton hotel, with the gas partly turned on. It was thought that he did not proper- ly turn off the gas when he retired.— Scotland Nesk Democrat. Good Friday. cifixion of our Saviour, and the day is observed as a most solemn fast by the ereater portion of the Christian world. It is aday commemorative of the great Christian tragedy . when Christ took upon himself our sius and there, by his own oblation, made _a_pertect, full and sufficient sacrifice for all who with meek hearts and due reverence will come unto Him and live. Let each and every one examine their hearts on this most ' | solemn day and see if there is not some sin to be eradicated, some evil to be ‘|discarded, calling upon the Lord for help, strength and light. ~ ‘What's the Matter With Robinson ?

Epitork Rertector :—I think it would be a good thing for the mer- chants of Greenville to join we people on the north side of the river in a pray- er to the County Commissioners to stop the bridge reparing until the spring freshets are over. If the bridge is torn up at this season of the year when there are weeks ata time that the ferry flat can not be used on account of an_ over- flow in the low grounds on the north side, you can see ata glance what a great inconvenience it will be to the people and also to the merchants, for if a big treshet. comes like we often have at this season of the year the north side trade will be cut off for weeks at a time. The case is not so urgent, I suppose, but what it would be deferred a month or twoat least, at“which time, if it is ag I have seen it,the river is often fordable. It is a bad time of the year to stop travel. REASON. Alarm at the Jail. About 8 o’clock Thursday night the cry of fire was raised in the jail. A crowd rushed there and Sheriff King with others went in. The smell of burning cloth was very distinct, but a close examination failed to disclose any fire. The supposition is that William Perry and W. H. Barnes, two prisoners who have just been sentenced to the penitentiary for seven years each for highway robbery, had set fire to some clothing and raised the alarm with the view of making their escape in the ex- citement when the jail should be opened. The smoke and odor was in their cell and they were already dressed for going out. | Memorial Address at bg ahinelie: Editor H. A. Londen, of, tlie Pitts- boro Record, will deliver, the Memorial address in Washington on May 11th, his subject being “Life and Services of Maj. Gen. Bryan Grimes.” Major London will delight his hearers with an admirable address on that occasion, and we predict that some Greenville folks will take advantage of the oppor— tunity to hear him, The memory of General Grimes is dear to many hearts in Pitt aad surrounding counties. All in Foar Days. Tuesday night at Bethel, Henry Cole Broke in Knox’s store and stole ; Wednesday he gave his girl cologne, Which proved to be some he had stolen. Thursday Henry to Greenville came, Knox and a Constable did the same.

The hog chains ‘with areport likes cannon and t, heavily “hogged” or bulged a in the middle, began ‘te sink.- She had struck a hiige submerged sycamore tees of huge dimensions, having got out of the channel in the fog. ee passengers were cared for by poe rmers in the vicinity and taken to Kafisas City , 20 miles distant, by a boat that'came up the river that night. The cargo of the Twilight was Very rich. It was‘eomposed of 300 barréls of whisky, hund eds of cases of wines, liquors and eanne goods and a large MOCK of gen- éral mehchandise. “For several years she on the lng in tlie riv er, visible when. the water was low and again covered. She ‘was a thing: of fascination to country boys, who dreamed of ‘all sorts of exploits to get the treasure out of her, There was an air of mystery about her that thrilled the farm lads like the tales of Capt. Kigd or the stories of the adventures of wreel: eTs. - Four years after elie was sunk an un- successful attempt was ‘made to get the cargo. Several years after that farmers in the. yieinity got. two. barrels..of whisky out of her and when they went for more she could not be found. The’ treacherous river“had shifted and she was buried in a sand bank. Then the river ent in along the south bani: ciose under the bluff ‘and the great rise of 1887 made a sand bar on top of her,’ -buvied her deep and left her far inland under 39 feet of kand, 100 yards from: the bank of the river at high water and ‘half a: afr from shore when the river was down Last year a number of Kansas City gentlemen organized a company to re- eover the sunken cargo, By a serics of ingenious mechanical devices they lc- cated the wreck in 59 feet of water and .found the freight in comparatively ‘good condition. Therehave been ria iny ‘interruptions of the work, but a large part of the merchandise has already been recovered, The 300 barrels of whisky in the hold are in a perfect state of prescrvation. One of them was tapped and the whisky was found to be beyond compare. A glass of is, which was pourcd out before a,company of men in the Kansas Vity elub, filled the emtire floor with its aroma. It was thick and oily, almost | of the consistency of New Orleans mo- lasses, and after the glass was emptied it clung to the sides as sirup would. The “whisky will not be taken out until! the government, officials shall be- come satish ied that it is tax fred. The taxes were paid at thé distillery where the ‘stuff was made more than 30 years ago. There is.a rumor that, abaft of where the whisky was found is the purser’s cabin, and in it is a safe containing a large sum of money, which was being carried from St. Louis to up-river mer- chants and army posts. The money question, however, is forgotten for the present in the joy of the wreckers at the finding of the whisky. Speculation is rife as to what will be the profits cf the wreckers. Experienced dealers say thatthe whisky: will sell readily for at least $400 a Derrel i= Bt Louis Globe- Democrat. ie C ' Glused! Ghope.
