What a fall! From State House to prison cell. Yet the same temp tations which lured him from his honored state are daily held out to others. Messrs, Edwards & Rogers an nounce this week that they are prepared to furnish tobacco flues and flue iron on the very best terms. The large store rooms of this firm, furnishing ample fa cilities fer handling such goods, with plenty of capital, is a suffi cient guarantee that it will be to the interest of farmers to call on them. We have recently taken a trip through Granville, Person and Caswell counties. The C/ ops of' Caswell are almost a failure. Those of Person are but little better. The best crops we saw in a travel of some two hundred miles, ai*e those near Oxford which are Jar below an average T. he is assisted by Rev. Dr. Man- gum, of Chapel Hill. Rev. R.H.

We are very caveful to mail the Friend to all its subscribers properly. Complaints reach us that some fail to receive it. We do not blame you to complain if you fail to get the paper. If you will state to us on a postal card that you do nor receive it, we will try to correct the irregulari ty. If our books are wrong we will make them right, and if we find that the fault is with mails, we will strive to call attention to it, in such way as to secure amendment. Let all our sub scribers feel assured that we shall do our utmost to send the paper to them properly. It is rumored that Rev. T. J Horner will turn o ver his inter est in the Horner School, at Henderson, to his son, Mr. W. 1). Horner, m order that he may devote his whole time to the ministry. Shoald this be true, the people of his Church are to be congratulated. He is a devout man. Mr. W. D. Horner is fully competent to sustain the repu tation of the school. Cigars, Chewing Tobacco, Smo king Tobacco &c. Williams & Furman’s. James Carey, the informer in the Pheenix murder case, was assassinated on the 29th of July, by one O’Donnell. The assai is in Jail. The goveroment had taken special and expensive measures to protect Carey. The foundation for Edwards & Rogers new brick store is being laid. By-the-by—Oxford seems to have taken new strides of propress. A tobacco factory has j uBt been, opened. Several large brick priise houses are in course of erection, and ourtobaccii men and merchants generally are making arrangements for a per manent and growing trade. Bev. C. T. Bailey, of the Bib lical Recorder, has been bereft by death of an infant son. We ten der sympathy to our afflicted brother. We are glad to see that the contributions are on the increase. Yet they are not what they have been. We ca i assure our friends that every dollar is needed, and that it will be judiciously expen ded. The residence of Mr. W. H. Elam, near Clifton, Mecklenburg county, Va., was totally destroy ed by fire last Saturday morning. It is supposed to have caught from sparks falling on the roof. The building was a very valua ble one, and Mr. E. has many friends in this State who will deeply sympathize with him in his heavy loss. Insurance, three thousand dollars. The streets of Raleigh are be ing posted and the houses num bered. When this is done, our oapitai city will enjoy the benefit of the post-office delivery system We are indebted to Grand Secretary, Donald W. Bain, for a copy of the proceedings of the Thirty-fifth Annual Convocation oftheAfost Excellent Royal Ai’ch Chapter of North Carolina, The wires tell* us that a con trolling interest in the Richmond and Danville Railroad system has been purchased by the syn dicate that is behind the East Tennessee, Virgsuia & ^Georgia Railroad, which is said to be the most powerful organiza tion that has ever taken hold of Southern Roads. How the sale will af fect North Carolina, renuaids to be seen. The company now con trols about 4,000 miles exf road, the net earnings of which are from ten to twelve millions a year. The resident ministers of Ox ford, who have charge of coun try churches, are now conduc ting special revival services. Rev. J. T. Gibbs is this weelc at Mt, Tabor. We undierstaud that The Louisiana State Lotery has attempted to dodge the de cision of the post-office depart ment by having its registered mail and money orders addressed to the New Orleans National Bank. The post office has acted wisely in refusing the concern the benefit of postal facilities. Would it not be well for our State papers to stop adyertising for this and all other loteries? By thus giving publicity to their drawnings they encourage a spe cies of gambling that all good citizens should disvountenance. world-renowned Horace Mann was the first president, and since his day Antioch has Often been called the“Harvard of the West.” It is the first c. liege of high grade ever known to admit both sexes with equal privileges and in dis tinct departments. Since that time over a hundred colleges have followed the example. While we rejoice in the success of President Long, and are truly glad to see that his talents are thus appreciated. We regret to seehim leave•ar State. North Carolina needs hundreds of just such men as Mr. Long. BUFFALO LITHIA WATER DISSOLVES STONE IN THE BLADDER.

Yadkin College.—We have as yet had no written report from the late meeting of the Board of Trustees. It seems important to have a clear and definite anounce- ment of the Faculty, etc. We have simply learned of the elec tion of Rev. R. H. Wilis as Chair man of the Faculty, and Prof. A, Baker as a member ol the Faculty. Do tobacco chew ers who spit their abominable nauseous spittle all over chapel and church floors, know what refined and cultivated people think of them? Bah! Young man, if you must chew, go and hide youi’self in a hollow-log and chew as’muoh as you please. It is not a habit to parade before the public.—Our Monthly. It seems to us that a proper respect .for the house of God would refrain every one from using tobacco in a church. A gentleman would, not think of spittii jg upon the floor of a friend’s parlor. Is not the tabernacle of the Lord more sacred. We read that the Jews spit upon Chirt. If we spit upon and make filthy a house dedicated to His service, are we not also guilty of a grave sin ? How disrespectful some people are to their Master ! Rev. Dr. T. E. Peck was elected last week by the Board of Trustees to the position of Professor of Theology in Union Theological Seminary, to fill the vacancy oc casioned by the resignation ot Dr Dabney Miss Mary S. Conwell, a grand daughter of the late Bishop Soule, won the prize for the best essay from the literary class ot the Van derbilt University, against a class of one hundred and twenty-one male students.

Williams & Furman. In our advertising columns this week appears an announce ment of Central Institute, loca ted at Littleton, N. C. This is a new educational enterprise. It is favorably located and well equipped. The Priucipai, Rev. J. M. Rhodes, we believe to be well qualified to conduct such an institution, and well adapted to the work. It is a pleasure to see institutions of this grade spring ing up in the State, and to see such men devoting themielves to the important work of educa tion. The recent District Con ference at Plank Chapel, passed the following resolution with reference to it : Resolved, That we are gratified at the visit of Rev, J. M. Rhodes, Principal of Central In stitute, Littleton, N. C., to this District Conference, and we commend hid school to the favor able consideration and the pat ronage of our own people. For further particulars see ad. When people turn from a course of conduct to its oppo site, they are said to repent of the former. So, when j wicked man,regrets the wick' ed past, turns away from it and dedicates the future to Grod, he repents. Tears mourning, convulsive strug* gles, all outward signs of grief and sadness, are non-es*- sential. The only question is, does the man’s life actually change? does he “bring forth fruits meet for repentance?^^ This point settled, he has at least obeyed one of the Di^ vine commands, and is so far a reighteous man and accep table to God. mmi iMiTUTE Rev, D. A. Long, President of the Graham Normal College, in this State, lias^accepted a call to Presidency of Antioch College, Ohio.

J, WeistUny, Middleton, Pa.,stated by himself: “Experience in its use in Stone of the Bladder in my own person enables me to attest the wonderful efticioncy of the Buflalo Lithia Water hi tliis painful mala-dy. After having been long subjected to sufferings, the intensitv of which cannot be described, I have, under the influence of this water, passed (I am con fident that I am within the bounds of reason) at least an ounce of Calculi (Uri c Acid) some of which weighed as much as four grains; affording inexpressible relief and leaving me in a condition of comparative ease and comfort. I am now passing only occasionally small Calculi, and they are not attended by the in tense suffering which their passage has hitherto occasioned. “On one occasion I passed thirty-five Calculi in forty-eight hours The ap pearance of this Calculus Nuclei indicates unmistakably, 1 think, that they were all component particles of one large Calculus, destroyed by the action of tlie water, by means of solution and disintegration. At my advanced period of life {I am now seventy-seven years and six months of age) and in my feeble general health, a surgical operation was not to be thought of, and the water s^ms to have accomplished all that such an operation, if .successful, could have done Besides greatly increasing the quantity of the Urine, this water exerts a decided influence on its chemical constitution, rendering it rapidly neutral if previously acid, and afterwards alkaline from being high-colored, it become:, pale -nd * having deposited copiously it becomes limpid and transparent.’’ ’ RHEIJinATlC com. Case of Dr. J. A. Hanhy, o/ Patrick C, H., Va., stated by himself: “For four years I was afflicted with Rheumatic Gout to an extent Avhich in capacitated me entirely for the discharge of the duties of my profession and was finally reduced to such a condition as to subject me for the most part to confinement to my bed. By the advice of one of my medical attendants and emphatically as a dernier resort, I determined to make use of the Bifflalo Lltliia Water, Spring No. 2,1 am frank to say without faith in its virtues, having but little coiitideiice in mineral waters. I’he use, however, of a few eases of the water was attended by .beneficial results, so remarkable, that I was soon able to be out of bed and upon my feet, and my improvement has continued until I am now actively engaged Ill the practice of my prolession, meeting without any unusual inconvenience all the exposure and hardship incident to the life o£ a mountain country. I cannot, in candor, do otherwise than a.scribe my recovery solely to this water, the value of whicli I regard as beyond estimation.” Dyspepsia, with Suppression of the M nsfsual Flow, Hypochondriasis, &t. Case of Miss—stated by Dr. lUm. jB. Towles, University of Virginia, Member Medical Society of Virginia: “I was consulted as to the use of the Buflalo Lithia Water in the case of Miss . She was suffering from a distressing form of Dyspep.sia, of some two years’ duration, pale, greatly emaciated, and weighing only sixty-seven pounds, Ihere was want of appetite, acid eructations, gastric pahi after inge.stion of al-. most any article of diet, nausea (tlie food often rejected by vomiting), consump tion, ex rerae langor.
