A sheet of paper, pure and white, Comes forth trom out the mill, In readiness fur sale and use, Its mission to fulfil ! What will that use or mission be ? And who will fill out its page ? Of what import shall its impress be ? And that for a day or an age? Will its {pen or print tell of noble deeds ? Or of ignominy and shame ? Will it tell of death and mourning weeds ? Or of wreck by flood or flame ? Will it note the loss of friend by death ? Or of sad misfortune’s frown ? Or yet, again, of treachery base’ Of hearts with grief bowed down ? Will it tell the tale of greed and wrong, Or that of the good and right ? Of darkened days and dreary hours ? Or those of life and light ? Will it echo for good the pulpit’s voice ? Of the teeming printing press ? And help to choose the better part, Mankind and the world to bless ? A ministering spirit may this paper sheet Be in dress of snowy white, Bearing messages of good to man, Kach day, from morn till night, Would that its wings might be the dove’s, Whose mission is that of peace, Of good will from heaven to man below, Of joys that ne’er may cease. That its virgin surface may never be Marred by record of wrong or sin ; That its outer garb may well reflect A mission for guod withia ; That the pen and ink, or printer's hand, Which colors its open page, May minister only the pure and true, In its impress from age to age. —Clark W. Bryan, in Paper World. GREENVILLE, oe nee The Central and Natural Marxet for the Tobacco of Eastern North Car- Olina. Such is the Opinion of Those in High Positions to Know, Sa esimce BY 0. L. JOYNER, A few days ago the writer was on a car between Goldsboro and weldon. Mr. J. T. Erwin, an old school mate and friend, was on his way home from Nashville, Tenn., where he has been for the pas‘ two years, We were dis- cussing matters of various kinds in gen- eral, and Greenville in particular. Tom was saying that from what he could learn Greenville had a brighter future than any tobaccc market in the east. and jast‘at this juncture a rather hand- the seat just in our rear leaned over C. He was toid yes and drawing him- self up in a most impressive way he that place on account of its tobacco and said he handled nearly all the tobaczo grown in North Carolina and Virginia, that is marketed in the east. “That is. said he handled it over hig road and during the past few years had handled ally Greenville. ; We were} of Eastern North: Carolina}, produced in the world and this one fea ture aione is a great. deal more thah many more thickly populated sections that there were a good many people in Eastern North Caralina who said that tobacco had done Eastern North Caro- lina more harm than it had good, al— though that class of people were greatly in the minority. Well, said he, those people ought to go away from home and spend some time in a section where forthe past ten years farmers have grown nothing but cotton and then come back home and contrast the dif- Tobacco would have no oppo— sition from this class of people any more if they would do this. We told him we were glad to hear him express himself thus about our home town. Why said he do you live in Greenville ? And on learning that “reenville was ovr home he become more pronounced in his praise of it, He then handed us his card but said I don’t want you to quote me over my name in this matter This gentlman is in a position to know just how people on the outside think of our town and this section of our State and if his word is worth anything as to what others think of us in some respects at least we are held in higher esteem by others than we value our- selves. : He paid a high regard to our section of the state, said he himself was a Vir- ference, dence and contentment in al] other changed cars for Greenville.

The past week has been very un- favorable nearly throughout the whole district. Rain occurred on every day ofthe week, and “on the 8th in con. junction with high winds. The pre cipation was very excessivé.; all low- ground was covered with water, and streams overflowed banks, destroying many low crops. ,Grass 18 gaining again very rapidly as no work could be done during the week. So far cot- ton has not been greatly damaged, a fittle shedding of forms is reported, go.ue turning yellow and some. little damage occurrec by wind. The crop is running up fest; in south portion of district there are pleaty ot -half grown bolls. Corn suffered more severely. ('onsiderable corn was reported blown down by high wind on] the, 8th. and many lowland crops destroyed along. streams Corn and cotton were in good rows which helped to ran of. Damage is probably overestimated at present. Tobaceo curing progressing very well. Sweet potatoes fine. Pea- nut3 being hilled. In northern coun- tics of the district where this is third or fourth week of too much rain, farmers are much Elsewhere general conditions still very favorable. discouraged. CENTRAL DISTRICT. The crop prospects have retrograded considerably. The area: of, hepvidst rain-fall centered over the counties of Anson, Randolph, Alamance, Guilford and Stokes. Storms and floods ‘did “much damage, particularly on 8th, lands were badly washed ; many bridg- es swept away and some crops damaged by winds. Cotton is running up very fast and shedding some lower leaves andtruit, but generally outlook con- tinues fine ; picking will probably begin eatly in August. Corn in bottom lands’ flooded to top of stalk and difficult to estimate damage ; much of it may be completely destroyed. Outside of alight additional damage by wind the rain has benefitted crops. Early corn practically made and ,. yield, will be vevaverage.” ‘Sweet potatoes best wheat in shock washed away, and oats yneut beaten down and tangled jn north portion.

On Thursday afternoon, at a time when Bland seemed to be the leader in the race, when Boies was a laborious second, and when McLean, brainiest and most conservative of them all, was enacting the role of the dark and dan- gerous hoise, this young man Bryan suddenly appeared, tall, shapely, hand- some as a Greek demigod, classic of outline, impassioned of address, thril- ling with his tremendous message to the people—appeared like a fairy. upon a dull and Tifeless scage, and in one mo nent threw 20,000 humaa beings into a fever of indescribable exaltation. He called back trom the vanished past, the witchery ot Orpheus, the magic of De- mosthenes, the irresistible forces of the great Napdleon. He stood there, and with a dozen fiery phrases he converted. thoughttul men into fanatics ; he changed them as utterly as. the wizard changes the toys he plays with on the stage. In all, the annals of politics chere was néVer such a scene. We.do not wonder that in the fol- lowing day, still palpitating under the spell of Bryan’s. wondrons. eloquence, the convention turned to him as a needle toa magnet. Jt may not be capable of analysis, it may not be coldly and The fact remains, Bryan swept the floor of the convention as the fire sweeps the accurately demonstrable. autumn prairie. The delegates went to him ina strange passion of desire. Nothing could check the fury of their He was nominated—slowly at first, swiftly next, and at last in a wild crescendo of enthusiasm, he was lifted on a whitecap of animosity and thrown high and diy upon the beach of his sur- passing triumph. The country at large knows little of this extraordinary ‘young man. He has been in Congress. -He delivered a speech upon the tariff that enchanted and enchained’ the Howse. He nas spoken many times since with reference to the tariff, and always he has held his audience as the-sirens held the fated erew that sailed with Ulysses from the | shores of Troy. He isa minstrel, a form of ' What he is beyond that, who knowg? He has no record in statesmanship. | He was too young to assert his pairidt- thirty-five years ago.

American people, aftefour’months of Solémn de- liberation, will confide their destinies to his untried hands, we do not undertake to propnesy.
