Published by Alfred Williams & Co?, Raleigh, at one dollar a year. Prof. W. D. Toy delivered a very interesting lecture last Saturday night before the students and citizens of Chapel Hill. The subject of his dis course was "(jerman universities. The professor has attended lectures in German universities, and, as was ex pected, gave a full and exhaustive treatise on the subject. All were en tertained highly and benefited much. At the quarterly examination of Mount Olive High School, March 19th, the following received the highest grades : Adele Bright, Ed.

His pro fession was that of the law. He was highly esteemed.. " -Our editorial articles in recent is sues of the Messenger inviting sub stantial immigrants with means to North Carolina, seem to be attracting attention. We have already bad sev eral enquiries, while others write for copies of the Messenger. A Scotland colonization company wants a tract of 10,000 to 20,000 acres in Eastern Caro lina, and another tract in the Western part of the State. We hope to hear soon again from the manager. We invite, attention to theT new advertisement of Messrs. H. Weil & Bros. This excellent firm continues to hold the lead in the mercantile trade of Eastern North Carolina and justly so. They are clever gentlemen, liberal, generous and progressive. They do a large and successful busi ness, and are never known to crowd any of their patrons so long as that patron is any way disposed to act hon orable and right. Their stock of gen I eral merchandise is quite complete, and they are able to sell at lowest cash ; prices.

The Club grounds are m the uraded fccnooi parK. We are nleased to know that Miss Kate Gallowav's class in painting and drawing is increasing. She has now several pupils and the progress tnat some of them are making is creditable to Miss Kate and gratifying to par ents. The old infirmary building, on East Centre street, purchased a few months since bv Mr. W. C. Munroe, is assum inrr an attractive aDDearance under the artistic manipulations of Mr. G. W. Thinner, the architect. This is one of the greatest improvements that has been made in the city tor some rime. Petitions are in circulation asking the county commissioners to order an election in Goldsboro township, on the first Monday in June, to determine whether or not spirituous liquors may be sold in the township. It the peti tions receive the signatures of one fnnrth the voters the election will be ordered, we presume. Farmers ought to know more about farming than editors, and yet events have demonstrated the fact that for several years past the editors have been right in advising against the nlantinef- of cotton to the exclusion of other necessities, and that the farmers have been wrong in not heeding this advice. This year the editors repeat the warning, but we tear that the farmers will, as usual, stick to cotton. Look out for Belostoma Americana, of the Pedirapti family. This is not a distinguished personage, nor the title of a show, but in the opinion of Mr. Withers, of the Department of Agriculture, is the appellation of the peculiar bug that nas put m an ap pearance at Raleigh, Durham and Wilmington. Mr. vv. says they are included in the sub-order to which the sauash-bug, bed-bug, water-measurer, &c, belong. They live principally in water, and subsist on aquatic, larvae, insects, voung n$h and probably nsn ecs. Their sting is poisonous, though rerh&rs not deadly to the human body. GOLgSBQRO M-bSSENGR, APRIL 1, inquiries relative to the races" to be given by the Goldsboro Jockey wuu; on tne i:otn and znh ol May. feuouia oe aa a res sea to, Mr. b u. Cas tex, Secretary. The question as to the best method of collecting f unds for j the pastor's salary and for incidental expenses is a perplexing pne to many, it not most, congregations. Our Methodist friends in this city have adopted a pian which we think a jcapital one and which, we understand; works very satisfactorily. The amount assessed against each member is divided into ten parts and about the first of each month a col lector calls in person upon the mem ber for the part then due. It is much easier for mtost people, and especially is it so for those of moderate means, to pay thej tenth or twelfth part of any given amount once each month than to pay; the whole amount at any one time during the year. We do not know how j this plan would work in farming septions, but it strikes us as being the best method that can be de vised for town and cities. Mr. Wm. A. Brand is the collector for St. Paul Church and he makes an energetic and efficient officer. "ONLY A FAIWIERS DAUGH TER" At the Opera House I April lOth. Friday, The charming Miss Blanche Car- tisse will appear at the Messenger Opera House on Friday the 16th inst., in that excellent plav "Only a Farm 's Daughter," in which she is sup ported by a strong and talented com pany. The Charleston News and Courier of the 24th ulto. says of this company : "Miss .Blanche (Jurtisse made her first appearance before a Charleston audience last night, in Eliot Barnes's melodramai"Only a Farmer's Daugh ter." The audience was a large one for the season and was entirely can- ured before the handsome and bril lant star had been on the stage ten minutes. 1 The play, to begin with, is entirely original, embodies many commendable features, and is free from the sickly sentimentalities and trashy French isms that even some authors Qf ac knowledged ability deem essential in catering tocertain depraved tastes. It possesses a wholesome, refreshing moral tone, and the plot, though at times intricate, holds its interest from the beginning to the close, and is suf- hcietly versatile to awaken frequent enthusiastic outbursts. The audience was well-nigh unbounded in its mani festation of approval of the conceo- ion and rendition of the leading roles. and even the minor readings elicited appreciative applause. Miss Curtisse in the role of Madame Laurent has a work that any one but a woman ot unquestioned dramatic tal ent would utterly fail in performing. The part of an adventuress an un seemly one for any woman to assume, but Miss Ourtisse makes it the central figure of the thrilling and interesting drama, and compels the attention and at times, the sympathies of her au dience by the verv witchery of her art. Nothing in woman-kind could be more bewitching than the pretty, pouting archness with which she bends ner suapeJy head, and with pouting ips that would force a frenzy of pas sion rrom an anchorite, pleads for peace, while throughout the entire play the ruling passion, love, although it be love for a convict, compels a-respect which even the diabolical ma chinations of the heartless adventuress fail to obliterate. The support was admirable and the play was received with repeated rounds of genuine applause, Miss Curtisse being twice called before the curtain." The Company played in Wilmington Monday night and the Star speaks well of them and says they were well received. The usual low excursion rates will be arranged over the several railroads.

Gathered by a Messenger Corres pondent. The cold of last week damaged the early blooms of the strawberries; but the much needed rain that has fallen for two or three days has to some ex tent counteracted the influence. Some of our truc&ers are departing from the paths "trod so oft before" and are this year devoting consider able attention to the cultivation of onions. YV e trust that their recei nts may be equaled only by the breeze they raise. Question: Was the' Capt. poisoned: if so, who did the work ? The eastern section of Warsaw1 bears unmistakable evidence of im-! provement. Lots already occupied are being beautified while new lots are being cleared and prepared for resi dences that are to be erected this sea son. There is not a vacant house in town and still they come. Mr. J. E. Sprunt will remove his family from Kenaus- ville to Warsaw this week. Friends of Kenansville: we sympathize with you over your loss and ask you to bear with us in our rejoicings. Since our last communication, we have had some business changes of importance. Messrs. Blanchard, Owen & Co., carriage manufacturers, have, by mutual consent, dissolved copart nership. Messrs. Blanchard & Owen continue the carriage business, while Mr. Parker, a former partner, has as sociated himself with Mr. J. W. Hun ter in the manufacture of boots and shoes. On Friday morning last, Mrs. Boy- ette, wife of our townsman Ned Boy ette, departed this life. Mrs. B. had been a great sufferer for months and, to those who knew her condition, the announcement of her death was no surprise. Mr. Boyette and the chil dren have the sympathies of the entire community. Keports ot forest fires come to us almost daily. The sufferers so far as we have learned are: D. I. Wood ward, 180 pannels of fence': E. J. Hill. considerable woodland burned; W. L. mil, 1UU acres of turpentine pints destroyed; R. J. Williams, 15 or 20 thousand rails and a body of as fine timber as there was in the countv: Dr. Moore, several thousand rails and con siderable timber. They Have had a most disastrous fire in lower Sampson and Duplin but we can not give suffi cient information to make a report. Rev. Mr. Weston, of Maine.-avho has been spending the winter in Dup lin and supplying the Baptist Church at Magnolia, will, in a few days, leave for his home in New England. Dur ing his stay Mr. Weston has greatly endeared himself to our people, and he will carry away with him the best wishes ot a host ot friends. Ellen Fussell is no more. She has joined Joe Scuffice in the scufflle for existence. We hope that Miss Fus sell may have a pleasant and pros perous scuffle with her Shuffle. Sylvester Pope, recently sentenced from New Hanover for bigamv. to ten years in the State prison was raised in Duplin and has a number of relatives in Duplin and .Sampson counties. Hope induced Miss Wil liams, his last victim, to believe that i years separation from his wife gave him a divorce and entitled him to marry again if he saw fit. He has received a iust recompense for his re ward and it is to be hoped that his fate will deter others who would lead in nocent women astray. Un bunday last, Rev. W. B. Pope, pastor of the Warsaw Baptist Church, preached from the text "Remember the Sabbath day to keep it Holy." Among other violations of this com mand he mentioned those of visiting, feasting indolence, buying and sell ing, working, worldly amusements and traveling. The speaker was hon est and bold in expressing his convic tions and we honestly believe that good and only good will be the result of the effort. K.

Mn fivcrtfiv. W. Jordan, the son of B. B and Sarah A. Jordan, in Grantham Township, Wflvnn oniintv. N. C. on thA tpnth riav of March. 1886, there was a meek and quiet spirit awaiting the beckoning smile of the great Judge of the "quick and the dead." Gradually but surely did that fatal monster, consumption, waste away tne vitality of this loved one ; but for three years he bore v.ia offli-na with Christian lortitude and heroic resignation, He had connected himself with the M. E. Church, and Christ from first t loot wn his Rhield and supports in which that soul had dwelt twenty-six years, during which time the two, ever acting harmoniously, had been a living testimony of the beauty of ,inincr nntn nthers as ve would that they Rhould do unto you," and no sacrifice ever seemed too great, nor labor too arduous, if he been with Jesus, and that he had had a fore only thought it necessary to umu iwreuw aim friends happy.
