Positively Identified.
David Wiggs, the burglar, is in a
weaving way. The j evidence ac
cumulates against him daily. This
morning Hugh Murphy, a well
known colored carpenter who lives
n on McRae street, between Chestnut
and Mulberry, was taken at his re
quest to the jail, where he positive
ly identified Wiggs as the man. who
had entered his house burglariously
few months ago. The evidence
not only accumulates, but it extends
and it is likely that others will soon
be implicated. The belief is that
there is a regular band of burglars
operating here, and that there are
"fences" who receive and dispose oi
the plunder. The recovered arti
cles' are yet at the , City Hall. The
gold cross has been claimed by
Annie Whitehead, colored, who says
that she found it some months ago
on the street. There is hair in the
cross and it must have been a treas
ured reiic with some one. It is
strange that the original owner does
not put in an appearance. The re
port' that Mr. Geo. S. Willis had
identified some of the articles as
stolen from his house is incorrect.

The Peanut Planters.
A very large and enthusiastic
delegation of peanut erroivers from
North Carolina and Virginia assenio
bled in the town of Suffolk, Va., to
take into consideration ways and
means of handling and selling the
peanut crop more to the planter's
advantage.
Eight counties in Virginia and as
many, or more, in j North Carolina
were represented, making a body of
some 250 members, j
The Peanut Growers' Union of
Virginia, lately organized in the city
of Petersburg, was merged into a
union of the goober growers of the
two States, and the Jiame changed
to Alliance Peanut Union of the
South.
A full complement of standing
committees, having very important
duties for their special work, was
appointed, and a statistican elected
--whose duty it is to collect from
and impart to the Alliances full data
as to the area, condition, &c, of the
peanut crop.
I The union adopted resolutions
in regard to farmer's peanut factor
ies and warehouses, on a systein.
Of grading peanuts, and on cotton
versus jute bags for peanut sacksj
The resolution adopting the cotton
bagging, samples of which were
shown to the meeting, was passed
with applause and vim. The cotton"
sacks (manufactured in Tennessee)
are very good, superior to jute, and
destined to give better satisfaction
than the latter. j
The State of Tennessee, on the
peanut belt of the same though
not yet crganiccilly within the union,
is virtually so. Thus we have an
Interstate union . of three States
that are the largest growers . of this
crop. l, ;
The meeting was large! ana im
portant enough to attract the at
tention of r the outiide world, and
telegrams were received from Chi
cago, asking, "What are the farm
ers up to?n And it is known that
there was more than one looker on
in Vienna in the shape of, peanut
buyers. !
The meeting adjourned j to meet
at Waverly, on the Norfolk and
Western Railroad, on the third
Thursday in October next, j
. One of the Mighty.
ven. Llewellyn ij. .testes was
Revenue Collector for this district
for some years following the close
of -the war, and when he left here to
take charge of a farm in Halifax;
county, there was some pretty plain;
talk as to his indebtedness to the
Government. He has always been
a staunch Republican and has al4
ways been alive to the fact that the
white Republicans in th South!
were destined to fill all the offices
in the gift of aRepublicanPresidentJ
We clip the following, relative to
him, from the Chatham Record; " j
The money that was sent to this
State last fall by the Republican
National Committee to buy and
bribe voters seems to have gotten
into trouble one of the leadinxr Re
publicans to whom it was sent. Geni
L. G. Estes, a carpet bag radical
whofigured Conspiculously in the
Reconstruction days, was appointed
last March a Superintendent of
Post Office Inspectors a lucrative
and important office but he has
recently been dismissed and turned
"out to.grass.' And the cause of
his dismissal is alleged to be this;
Senator Quay, the chairman of the
National Republican committee
sent $30,000 to this State last fall to
be distributed by the most skilfull
party workers, and to Gen. Estes
was given the sum of $5,000 to be
used for the party's benefit. It is
said that Quay was dissatisfied with
Estes's expenditure of the $5,000 en-
trusted to him and the latter would
not render any account of how he
spent it. This made Quay angry,!
and through his influence Estes has
been dismissed from office. Thus
one more of the Republican secrets
of the last campaign is divulged,
and proofs are accumulating of the
efforts made by the Repulicans to
carry North Carolina with the cor
rupting use of money.

The subject of this brief but heartfelt no

aamiraDie qualities to require any extended
eulogy after death to keep her dearly cherish
ed memory green in the hearts of her many
disconsolate friends. She was a perfect type

ture decease has wrought a vacuum in a select
social circle that must long remain unfilled.
The writer enjoyed the inestimable privilege
of possessing her sincere and joyous friendship
for a number of years. The grief-stricken
husband and two motherless little boys left in
the beautiful, once happy, but now desolate
home, are the recipients of all possible sym
pathy and attention from friends, hoping to
sooth their anguish; but time alone, the slow
healer of wounded hearts, can effect assuage
ment, or ultimately cure. On of the fairest
and sweetest ephemeral flowers of earth has
just been uprooted, and transplanted in a soil
more congenial to eternal, ever-blooming
purity ana loveliness. Take her for all in all,
we ne'er shall look upon her like again.
