A Disastrous Cyclone- News reaches us that a mo4 dis astrous windstorm visited a pait of Wilson county last Saturday night. It was particularly severe in Old Field's township in the viviity of the farm of Mr. J, M. Burnett. We learn that his pi intation and dweK ling house were almost totally wrecked. The front porch was blown away carrying the chimney with it. Ilis buns and all out houses are torn completely to pie ces, and his stock narrowlv escaped with severe bruises. Ovei 1,000 pan els of fence on his farm were blown down, j A new - twostory tenant honsct was entirely demolished, and the rock foundation of the chimney scattered, The 'floor was torn from the sleepers as thiugh it had not been nailed down. The old P. L. Burnett gin house was . torn down and the lences ot Mr. C. H. Glover lifted np and carried away. Not a house was left standing on Mrs. Theresa Hamilton's farm. Such is the news that reached us on Mon day. It is very distressing. No one noticed teat the wind blew here with unusual violence. The scene of destruction above chronic cled is only between seven and eight mi!e3 from Wi'son, . A ?in3 C:apany.' : The annual statement of The Mat.ial Life Insurance Company of New York shows the remarkable progress made by this institution daring twelve months. The record made by the Mutual eclipses its own best efforts, ana naturally exceeds that of any other financial Institus tion in the world, -The new busis ness written amounted to $160,985 1)86, showing a continuous and phe nomenal advance. The assets of the Mutual Lite now aggregate $149,151,061,20 indicating a gain for the year of 10,753,633.18. The Company has now an outstanding insurance account amounting to 038,226,865. Its total income from all sources is reported at $34, 978,778.09. It paid to its members during the year for death claims and endowments and other obliga tions $10,973,200.05. Up to date the Mutual bad 206,054 policies in force, showing a gam in members ship for the year of . 23,745 thus forming the biggest army of policy holders in suy regular Lile Insur ance Company in the world. The surplus fond is now $9,981,223.33 over and above every liability. The Mutual Life was the first to practically undertake the simplifi cation of the insaranca contract and strip it of a verbiage in the mazes of which could be found in numerable refuges against claims of policy-holders who had, however unwittingly, departed from the strict letter of the agreement. That this appealed powerfally' to the popular taste is evident from the fact that in 1890 the Company wrote over $1 90,000,000 of new in surance. , Th3 Musicale Tue musicale last Friday night was pronounced by all who attea ded, the best thing of the kind Wilson people ever enjojeJ, Not a large house was present, but it was an appreciative one. Capt. Cun ningham and Miss Waddell were very kind and obliging and readily responded to repeated encores. The following program was presented: PART FIRST Quartet-Old Home down od the Farm ty J. M, Leath and others. Vocal olo Stella by Miss Lily Gay. Trio Flower Greeting Misses Lily Gay, J. Gav and Mrs. Alex Quails. Vacal solo Capa Fatal Mestrla, by Miss Waddell.

Frank Cunning ham's singing. His fame had pre ceded him. We expeeted much. We were not disappointed. A Wil son audience had never before heanl &ueh singing. His voice is singuhuly sweet, pure, and the words cume ringing out as distinct ly a though he were talking. And set there is a world of melody and genuine music in it. His favorite songs are those with strains of sad ness dwelling in them and when he breathes it forth the tear involunta rily Spiiuga to the eye, a sparkling tribute to nature'. artist. Socially Capt. Cunningham is as pleasant as bis music is sweet, if that be possible We met and liked him. Miss WaddellV songs evoked prolonged applause and also hearty and repeated encores. Her voice is( wonderfully rich ' in volume and' flexibility, unsurpassed ; in sweet uess. and correctness of tone, and coupled with a most winning ex pression is dangerous to near. She will be heartily welcomed to Wils sen again and her coming eagerly looked forward to. . . : The home talent acquitted them-, selves, as usual, with much credit. As one lady was beam to remark: 'You may get singers from where ever you may, but Wilson can equal tbem " .The Musicale was presented again on Saturday night, with a changed program, we hear that S100 were realized. , The home folks who participated were: Misses Lilly Gay, Julia Gay'and Nora Graves, Mrs. Alex Quails, Mrs. Dr. Albert Anderson, Messra J. M. Leath, Jno. F. Bru -ton, J. D. Bardm, Abe Einstein and Dr. E. K. Wright. The Meeting Continues. The series of revival services which have been conducted in the Methodist Church here for the past three weeks closed last Friday night. Rev. Mr. Riddick left Sats urday for his home in Hertford. He is a most earnest preacher, cool, calm and dispassionate in manner, logical, learned and "convincing in his reasoning. The meetings have been a source of much pleasure to the congregation and others who have attended, and yet there have "V T oeen no conversions, ino one has been persuaded to turn into the path ot righteousness and seek the Kingdom. He had but one object n preaching to save souls. We are moved to remark, in the language of a reepected exchange, that it striues us as a little cu rious and somewhat unfortunate that so many of our good modern evangelists mix their motives by having some secular object closely associated with their religious ef forts. One has a new bouse of worship to complete, another a school to endow, aGother an or phanage to support and another a young man's association ball t3 erect, and another is .laboring to pay off debts contracted by indul gence in gross w.ckedness before he set out as an evangelist, The first one we ever heard of was buys ing lota m California on which to erect houses of worship, &c. We are not opposed to evangelists. We are in sympalhy with every move ment to spread the gospel and save souls, but we do most heartily wish that evangelists would have but one motive one object before them. Then we could co-operate with them more heartily and endorse them more fully. And sow it does seem a 'little etiange that here is a man who for three weeks has earnestly pointed out to men their imminent danger, has eloquently pointed the dark future for the unsaved and the good flowing out of a consecrated christian life, and men and women at by unmoved and seemingly indifferent,- It does seem as though something besides the gospel some outside Influence mast' be brought to bear before men can be moved. It does seem so. It was the forcible, if unpolished, remxrV of a former citizen: Tlrx n -to git 'em, is to hM 'em over hell L-y a single t air aud threaten to drap 'em." v Since the above was written Dr. L. L. Nash, of Kaleigh, arrived on Monday and the meetings will be continued on through the week. His serLaon on Monday nijjht w&8 a strong, earnest plea for Christia co-operation, without ..which it would be impossible to accomplish anything.. His intense zeal and warm fervor made a profound im pression. Personal Col. J. F. Bruton is in Ral eigh. Miss Nellie Waddell left Sunday for Goldsboro.

Although this is his mai den effort iv tobacco, the result shows that he made a success. How about those Factories? There is hardly a' day but what some inquiries are made for a place to handle tobacco. Let it be known that you. (I mean you,) are going to build and you will flud no trouble iu disposing of it. There were some prominent tobacco men here this week, ou the lookout, but no factory to handle tobacco. We bad with ut last week, Mr. Jones, warehouseman Iroro Raleigh Maj. J. Y. WhitteJ, of Durham and Col. Ohas. E. Wilson, of Rocky Mount. Charles speaks in glowing terms of our young city. He says its location and advantages are over any town lie has visited in N O. and our tobacco, being of batter body aud character than auy he has seen. We would add what !e said of our beautiful girls, but his better half might hear of it. Come again, Charles. If you wish to enrich the beds while lhe plants are growing, put about one half of a bushel of refuse from the hen roost iu a coarse sack and immerse in a bar rel of watir; after 24 hours you have a rich bath, free from sedK meat, to clog your sprinkler, which will fairly make your plants jump. Always sprinkle yoir plants in the evening, which prevents the beds from baking, and the water will not evaporate so reartily, thereby givs ing the roots more time to absorb the much needed moisture. I Take the frames off on warm nleasaut days, and after the leaves of the plants are as large as your finger nail keep them off entirely, except during cold days or violent storms. The plants are too tender if the frames are left on longer. In selecting the proper place to burn for a plant bed, get a South- ern exposure in the woods, trim out so the bed can get the warm rays of the sun. If possible select a spot near a branch, let it be protected by woods or pines on the North side. First clean off the land of all rub bish and growth. 50 square yards is enough to burn in one place. First lay you several lines of skids, 3 or 4 feec apart, and upon this put your wood alter placing your light wood first, then fire and permit to burn long enough to assure yon that all vegetable matter in or on land has been bnrdt. Keep xour fire mended by throwing on brush. It will take from one to two hours to sufficiently cook the laud. Any mode is good enough provided the work is well done, after it has been thoroughly burned and cooled off, rake off the large coals, but let the ashes remain, then with a grubbing hoe mate une the soil by repeated chopping and raking. Try not to bring the subsoil to tba surface- Remove all root 8 and 'manure with wen iottea siaoie, nen house ma nure or reliable fertilizer aud chop all m thoroughly. A little of all is better than any one. Rake it over good and now you are ready to sow your seed. Sow about A oz. which is about a tablespoonfui of seed on every 50 square yards. Mix the seed well in dry lifted ash es, mare on the bed with a line like you would do to edge a barn log, just so it will mark the ground Sow regularlv over the bed, then with the remainder cross to make sure of regularity and uniformity, tht tread with your feet m akin 2 the bed even. After this get you a ronnd pole 6 inches in diameter, lay across your bed and go on it forc ing it in the land. Take it off to make a drain to carry off the water. Cut a ditch' on upper side to pre vent hill side from washing over the bed. , Some few moro of the patrons who had tobacco here last week.

AGOOD CPINING- Lm ' , ... Good Beginning. . As announced in last weeks' Advance the opening sale of leaf tobacco in the Planters' Warehouse was held last Fri day. Considering the inclem ent weather and the limited time in which to advertise the sale it was a? big success. Capt. T. M. Anderson, the obliging proprietor is a good warehouseman the right man in the right place as tba events of the day demonstra ted. The break in quality of tobacco was most ordinary. There was not a pile of good tobacco on the floor. The prices paid for what was self' were unusually good tobacco. Here is a for such summary of the sale: No. of pounds sold. A. 3,357 Gross amount paid, 1,344 76 An average of over ten cents per pound. Among the farmers who had tobacco on the break we saw the following: Cawthorn & Finch, J Y Finch, W P Stallings, A M Thomas, C A Young, J W Porter, Miss Kato Barnrs, E B Hilliard, Thomas Felton, D L Hardy, J B Singletary, W T Farmer, A S Copeland, Jas Tomlinson, C D Jones, Moore & fciutchiudon T R Atkinson, David Hardy, Arthur Fulgham, A L Wiins L F Williamson, K II Liles, Warren Woodard. We desire to emphasise the fact that there is no place like Wilson in which to sell the to bacco of; this section. Two warehouses are now selling daily. The breaks are full and prices are very satisfactory. There is no brag, no blow, no bluster about Wilson as a to bacco market except such as is made by its patroDS. It is now the best market in the State for the farmers of this section. We believe it &.nd we are preaching our belief. DIEJD At Centreville, in Franklin coun ty.; Wednesday, February llth, '91, Dr. Washington Peters, aged 40 years, Dr, Peters was a most esti mable gentleman.

He was buried Monday evening, lhe tu neral services being conducted by Rev. John N. Cole of Wilscu. Mr. Williamson was a good citizen and will be greatly missed in- bis community. He leaves a wife, seven children, one brother anu a large number of friends to mourn the loss of one who was dear to them, The writer sympathizes with the bereaved ones in this the hour of sad visitation and tp tbem wo would say "God givet'u aad God taketh away.
