Of course it is, and it is the very tax with which to meet a war debt.

Surely it is not a peace tax. " Here is the closing sentence of the insulting and scandalous article the Boston "Smart Aleck" wrote for the Minneapolis Tribune, about which so much has been said ; "It is hard to have respect for a woman who would sell herself to so gross and re pulsive a man as G rover Cleveland, and one with a private record so malodorous, for the bauble ol a bnel social ascenaency.

He began his first regular en gagement at the "Old - Chestnut" (Sixth and Chestnut streets) Philadel phia, as Soto, in "She Would and She Would Not." He was soon pro moted to the position of leading comedian of that theatre, then in its palmy days, where he remained for two seasons, and then he appeared in Baltimore as first comedian. . The complimentary benefit given to him there that season is remembered as one of the greatest ovations ever awarded to native talent in America. Mr. Clarke's success in London has limited, in the past, his professional work to but a Tew cities in America and England. He now proposes, to make a professionol tour of his own country ana appear in tne extensive range of comedy characters at his command.- lie will be accompanied by his son, Creston Clarke, a young actor grandson of the eminent tra- feaian, J unius .Brutus uootn wno as won unstinted praise from critics of London and New York ( Wallack's Theatre) during his brief professional careen :.

Z : r Goldsbobo, October 28. : It is a cause of gratulation'that the managers of the fair association are able at the close of this, the last day of the exhibit, to" state with a good deal of confidence that the fair has paid expenses. . . V '- This, under the .circumstances, is a high compliment to th executive ability of these gentlemen. It is safe to say that if there had been favor able weather this week that this Fair would have been one of : the finest held in the State, as it is it is a fair of which our people are justly, proud. The poultry Supply would have done oredft to an exhibit of the products of any people on the ; globe. Tbenum ber of articles and their meritorious quality in this! department so taxed the judges to decide that thev had to adjourn over until to-morrow to com plete their wozjc: v If there were no praise to the oar- ticularly meritorious, half the incen tive to success would be gone. With this view controlling us we cannot fail to call attention to the fine dis- glay of groceries made by Messrs. I. .' D. Sauls and Edge rton Finlayson & Co., of this city. The useful and the beautiful were never more har moniously blended than in this dis play. Messrs., Smith & Yelverton had a quantity and variety of hardware that ought to be sufficient to make any firm feel proud. The kind and quali ty are indicated by the premiums awarded. There were borne newell posts and balasters made at the shoos of Messrs. N. O'Berry & Co., of this city, that for oeauty of design and artistic finish we nave never seen surpassed, if equaled. The space occupied by Messrs. Rov- all & Borden was carpeted with car- Eeting of pine straw from the Acme anufacturing Company's establish ment, of your city, hence of great interest to us on aceount of its being peculiarly nortn Carolina industry.

' Fatettkvillk. Oct. 27. Synod met Wednesday at 9.80 a. m., when the Moderator announced the standing committees. Orders of the day were fixed for several days. Dr. M. 11. Houston addressed tne Synod on the Foreign Mission work. He pointed out many matters of en couragement, made many practical suggestions, and closed with an elo quent appeal. On bis suggestion a committee was appointed to make arrangements for 'simultaneous meet ings in February next, in the inter est of mission work. A complaint acralnst the action of Mecklenburg Presbytery in regard'to the liquor traffic, and a complaint against Wilmington Presbytery in re gard to the licensure of a candidate for the ministry, were referred! to the Judicial Committee. An overture from Orange Presby tery asking if it be lawful to license and ordain a candidate at the sanre meeting of Presbytery, was referred to the committee on bills and over tures, which reported to-day that it was unconstitutional. The report was docketed for further consideration. Mr. W. S. Primrose, of Raleigh, was elected Treasurer of Synod in place of Mr. Jesse Lindsay, of Greensboro. At 8 p.m. Key. P. H. Hoge preached a most appropriate sermon. Alter E reaching Rev. S. Taylor Martin was eard In behalf of iUnion Theological Seminary, in Virginia. He was fol lowed by many in short and pointed speeches. A subscription was tacen to aid in endowing the fifth professor ship In the Seminary. The subscrip tion amounted to $1,800. Thursday, October 27. Synod met according to adjournment. Mr. John Moljaurin, editor of tne Jr. U. Te$oy terian, was beard in -the interests of that paper. He was followed by sev eral ministers, wno commended the paper most heartily. Kev. w. is. Meiiwain, oy previous appointment, preached an eloquent and most practical sermon on the du ty of the Church in raising up more ministers to enter upon the many fields now white to the harvest. Rev. J. M. Wharey, agent of Hasten -tation, submitted an elaborate report. He directed the attention of Synod to the fact that the ministry is better paid than anv other profession. -Rev. Dr. J. H. Smith submitted the report of the directors of Union Sem inary, endorsing tne administration of its affairs, its appointments for work, and its course of instruction. The Synod reconvened at 8 o'clock, when Rev. Jas. Y. Fair, of the Second church, Charlotte, preached a most eloauent sermon from John, 32. The sermon was really a masterpiece of logic and persuasion; estaoiisning tne divinity of Christ from His influence on the world of morals, oi sestnetics. ofDhilosoDhy. of emotion. After the sermon the Lord's Supper was ad ministered to a large congregation. The music was had by a choir of - gentlemen. , led by Mr. H. R. Nowitzkv. of Favetteville. It has rarely been our privilege to hear such church music, grand and solemn and elevating. The wnole service waa most edifying. Appropriate pa pers in memory of ministers deceased since last meeting oi tne ynoa were read bv different ministers a beauti ful custom this, to stop in the midst of business and record the services of men who have spent their lives In Christ's work. The complaint against Wilmington Presbytery was taken up, pending the discussion of which the uvnod adjourned. '. Friday, Oct. 28.

C, a considerable portion of. the tripghsgvtr' a river: These vessels are of a higher class than canal-boats, and they compete with sea-going sailing vessels.
