Pasquotank and Edge combe are the only two counties in North Carolina that have more im proved than unimproved acres of land. The Statesville Landmark referring to Judge Boy km, who presided at the last term of Iredell Court, says: "Judge Boykin is patient, courteous and quick and presided to the satis faction of all concerned." The Chron icle knew that, though the youngest Judge in the State, Judge Boykin would sustain himself and win reputa tion. Wilmington Star : A line of rail road is now being located by the Ral eigh & Augusta Air Line from Winder to Carthage, in Moore county, a dis tance of about eleven miles. All the . indications are that it will be quicklv built. The country that this road will open up between Carthage and Deep River is very productive, and its fur ther 'development will no doubt be greatly enhanced by this; road. The Star states that the executive committee of the incorporators of the Wilmington, Onslow & East Carolina TJnilroad have caused books of sub scription to be opened at the banks in That citv and have appointed Mr. S.

Clinton Caucasian: Two months ago we announced that there was a scheme on foot by which the friends of the railroad hoped tor its early com pletion. That scheme was a proposi tion to the W. & W. R. R.i to take our road, complete it and run it. Negotia tions have been going on since that lime looKing to tnat end. a nese neg otiations have reached that stage where it depends entirely upon our own people whether we get tne roaa or not.

Price. at the Opera House, last Thurs day evening, 'was a c fine effort.. : It was earnest, thoughtful; and eloquent n l .! 1 ".. - auu.Bu.uum uaye ine enect or inspiring nis coiored hearers to aspirations for a higher standard of intelligence and morality. : . ., , The good work moves forward; On Friday night . last,' Ruffin Lodge, Knierhta of i Pvthias. donated flvtn to wards supporting the Graded School for the ensuing school year. The Odd Fellows crave 100 some time ao and it is thought that the Masons and perhaps other Societies may make contributions. The detestable and aggravating pests, musquitoes, are unusually troublesome this season. The noctur al zephyrs are laden with their inhar monious monotones and the blood of the best as well as the worst in the land flows from the poisoned dagger thrusts of these merciless offenders. Let us have peace. - We were pleased to receive a visit on Saturday from Mr. S. Lieberman. Mr. Lieberman has long been connect ed with that excellent institution, the Penn. Mutual Life Insurance Com pany of Philadelphia, and we are glad to learn has been assigned to North Carolina, with 'headquarters at Raleigh, as the State Agent of the Company. The Penn. Mutual is one of the very best in the country. The appearance at the Opera House in this city on the 23d of September, of Miss Marion Booth, will be the reerular opening of the season , and will doubtless prove quite an event. Miss Booth is the daughter of Junius Brutus and Agness Booth, and a niece of Edwin Booth. As an actress she has inherited the great genius of the Booth family, and is as beautiful as a poet's ideal. She is strongly sup ported. "UKDER THE LASH" At the Opera House Saturday Night. A rather small audience assembled at the Opera House Saturday evening to witness the three-act melo-drama entitled "Under the Lash," by the talented young actor, Walter S. San ford, and his company. Appreciation was not lacking, however, as was de monstrated by the frequent outbursts of merriment and applause. The play is new and one which ap peals to the sympathies of humanity, and is replete with thrilling incidents and tragic situations. Some of the acting fell short of the requirements of the piece, and yet as a whole, the audience was pieased with the perfor mance. Mr. Walter S.' Sanford, the head of the company and the hero of the play, is quite a young man, and made a good German messenger. In our judgment the best acting was that of Mr. Jos. C. Gorden, as "Italian Joe " Mr. Chas. J. Newton played the negro character well and Mr. T. J. Meegan made a first-rate Dr. Dudley. Miss Annie Russell, as the blind girl, took some of her parts admirably, but in other parts there might have been a little more animation. None did bet ter in their roles than the acting dog and much of the success of the play is due to his thorough training. We learn that the company is to be greatly strengthened at Charlotte, and they will return to this city later in the season, at which time they will propably receive more liberal patron age. FOR THE SENATE. Mount Olive, N. C. Aug. 13, '8C. Mr. Editor: As the time is about to arrive, when nominations will be in order, and I already see the names of several gentlemen mentioned tor the different offices of our county, it is a privilege, if not a duty, of any Dem ocrat to make such suggestions as will advance the interest of the party. We should be very careful to select good men; and men that can be elect ed. It will take good men and good work to secure the election of our ticket; hence we should select men that are personally popular, and can carry the full strength ot the party. The Republicans, being anxious for power, will watch our mistakes and take all advantages possible that will give them any strength. For the Sen ate,! suggest the name of Mr. Daniel J. Aaron of Brogden township. Mr. Aaron is well qualfied to fill that im portant position. He is personally popular, and a practical commonsense asiness man. It honored with the nomination, he has the capacity to make a successful canvas, of this Senatorial district; and would give strength to our county ticket. Democrat. COUNTY CANDIDATES. Editor Messenger: Having seen a erood many names suggested for Leg islative honors, allow me space to suererest a ticket: Forthe benate, W. R. Allen, Esq., a young man of sterling worth, a level head and no doubt a noble and generous heart, just the kind of a man that all true Democrats should delight to honor. For the House, Dr. Geo. L. Kirby and Jas. B. Gardner. Both being very popular and calculated to legislate tor the whole people. If we would win give us the above ticket and all will be well. Yours, &c. B. V. Smith. Editor Goldsboro Messenaer : In a re cent issue of your paper I noticed that . nnrrpisnnndent from Fremont sug gested the nomination of Mr. W. R. Allen, of Goldsboro, as Wayne's can didate for the State Senate. I desire add my endorsement to that of your correspondent. There is no man m tne county wno wouau wvxu iui f nil v serve his neonle. A erentleman of excellent sense, of sound judgment, a lawyer or ability and learning, a man of character and Democrat of 4thfi most straitest sect." Mr, Allen would make a valuable member of the Legislature. I do not know who your correspondent .was but l oeneve ne r.mi1 not have made abetter selection. I should be glad to see Mr. Allen ' re- . . i a t -t i ceive the nomination ana x now mere are many Democrats of the county who concur with me. uoldsboeo.

To Be Heid on Saturday, Septern- The Democratic township and pre cinct meetings of JWayncounty are to be held on Saturday next. . The har mony of the party, the strength and DODuIantv of the ticfcet to be nomi nated on the 18th of September, and indeed the success of that ticket at the November, election all-depend to a great degree oh the manner in which the primary work is done in the pre cinct and township meetings. We trust, therefore, that every Democrat who can - possible spare; a few hours time will not fail to attend his precinct or township meeting. The delegates choser at said gatherings should be representative of ' their respective neighborhoods, thoroughly familiar with the views and wishes of their peo ple and firmly resolved to voice the sentiments of those who appointed them so far as it may aid in the selec tion of the strongest and most avail able candidates. There is no lack of good material, and if acceptable, strong'and popular men are nominated, the success of the entire legislative and county ticket is assured. For the Senate we hear the names of J. F. Oliver, F. M. Aycock, W. R. Allen, C. B. Aycock, John W. fsler, W. F. Kornegay, C. F. R. Kor- negay, i). J. Aaron, ioi. itios. J. Kennedy, Col. Lewis vVhitheld and Dr. Geo. L. Kirby. Mr. G. B. Aycock declines to become a candidate. For the House we hear the names of I. W. Hatch, W. G. Burkhead, A. L. Sasser, Henry Lee, F. I. Becton, John W. Isler, J. B. Gardner, A. J. Brown, W. R. Hooks and D. A. Grantham. Some of the gentlemen here named for the Senate and House decline to let their names be used. For Register Capt. W. T. Gardner seems to have the field. At any rate we have heard no opposition. Mr. John H. Edwards appears to have no opposition for Treasurer. Ihe renorn- mation or both these excellent omcers is almost assured. All interest appears to center on the Sheriff's nomination. The present popular incumbent, Sheriff Grantham, has friends who push him tor renomi- nation. tiis chief competitor seems to be Mr. B. F. Aycock likewise a stron g and popular gentleman . Messrs. W. G. Broadhurst, James Beiry Gard ner, Albert Aycock, "W. H. Ham, W. F. Rose and B. W. Bowden are also canvassed in that connection. Mr. W. W. Slocumb is so far the only aspirant we hear mentioned for Clerk of Superior Court, and Drs. Tom Hill and M. E. Robinson are spoken of for County Coroner. THE VOTE.

Paragraphs Cauglit on the Fly by Our Clinton Reporter. Our farmers are all busy pulling fodder. Crops have improved materially, and the yield will no doubt be better than many expect. Mrs. R. C. Holmes, of Goldsboro, continues quite sick at her father's residence here. The health of Clinton is remarkably good. No town rn.the fotate, m point of healthf ulness, surpasses ours.

For a long, long time we have anxi ously looked and wished for rail-road communication with the outside world, and now our hopes are about to be realized. With railway facilities our already prosperous little town will assume proportions it should have attained long since. Clinton most assuredly has a bright future. Our county will most heartily en dorse the action of the State Conven tion, in its nomination of the present Supreme Court "Justices, and the full strength of the Democratic yote will be given the ticket. We now patiently await the action of our county Con vention, which meets next "Wednes day, Sept. l;t. Philo. TOWNSHIP MEETINGS To Elect Delegates to County Nominating Convention.

Yours truly, 8. M. FINGER, Secretary Slats Board of Education. TESTIMO NI ALjS W.A.Blair, rofessor of English Grammar and English LiUrature, State Normal, Winston, N. V. I am very much pleased with "Harrington's Speller," and have adopted it in our school at High Point.. I have never believed In cook books, but shall use Harper's. We use Sw ton's "Language Lessons- and "English Gram mar" In our graded school here, and like them very much. II. L. Smith, Principal Selma Academy, Selma, N. C. I have carefully examined "Harrington's Graded Spelling-book." and am much pleased with it. IU adoption by our public schools would aid very much in doing away with the foolish though time-honored custom of teach ing spelling orally, which prevails among so many of them. Hugh Morson. Raleigh, N. V. After a careful examination I have intro duced into my classes Harrlnj?ton'8 Graded Speller" and "Harper's Graded Copy-books," and a in very much pleased with them. I re gard the speller as greatly superior to aDy book of the kind I have yet seen. I have also examined "Swinton's Language Series," and am so much pleased with it that I shall intro duce it as soon as practicable. M. J. Goldsmith, Penman and Consulting Ac- countant, Atlanta, Oa. I have carefully examined "Harper's New Graded Copy-books," and find them very prac tical as regards the character of the ooples and grading. They come nearer my ideal of public school requirements than any other books with which I am acquainted, and I take pleas ure in recommending them. Terms For Introduction. I.
