Harvey vs. Brevard et al. Plaintiffs had sued defendants on their bon dto 'indemnify the sheriff for seizing certain goods, and de fendants moved to remove the action from Lenoir to Buncombe county, under sections 191 and 195 of the Code. Held, That obligors in a bond of indemnity are now entitled to have the cause removed Under the statute. Perry vs." Peterson. I ' Held, Where an order of sale made by the late Court of Pleas and Quar ter Sessions in a proceeding to sell land -was "irregularly made, and it becomes a matter of inquiry whe ther the purchaser at the sale had notice of the irregularity and such inquiry is not fully made, there should be a new trial to ascertain the fact. Townsendrvs. McKimmon. ! ' Defendant had given plaintiff a written instrument conveying his crop to secure advances, which plain -tiff undertook to enforce in a summa ry way under the statute as an agrt cultural hen, defendant objecting thati the instrument was a chattel mortgage. j Held: It appearing from the in etrument that the purpose was to create suoh a lien as that contempla ted by the statute, and in effect only alien being created by the words of conveyance used, that no particular form is essential to create the lien qnder the statute Held: That though the instrument bave the form of a chattel mortgage yet it must be so treated as to effectuate the intent of the parties under the statute which be comes a part of it and gives char acter to the lien. Allen vs. Griffin. Plaintiff, heirs of B. L. Allen, seek to recover possession of land which ft. L. Allen had in 1880 rented to one Lassiter who sub let it to .defendant, who has kept possession ever since. Defen dant showed a deed from R. L Allen, dated in 11879. Among the tiro issues submitted to the jury- was nrst, was this land embraced m j Allen's deed . to defendant'; and wecoud, did defendant enter as tenant of Allen. The jury found the first issue in the negative and the second in the affirmative, but the court set aside the nnding on tne nrst issue as being against . the weight of evidence, j ; On the second issue, judgment was rendered against defendant, who ap pealed. I Held, That when the error as eigned sufficiently appears on the face of the record the court will take notice of it. j j Held, That the first issue being un decided, the defendant was entitled to a new trial, for notwithstanding bis entry as tenant, he would be en titled to the possession, if the land A 1, : f? T All v was vuutrcjreu w uiui ujr jlv. xj. auou McKinnon vs. Mcintosh. j Plaintiff sold to defendant a lot of guano foo $297.66 and sued for the price. 1 Defendant answered that plaintiff falsely represented the value of the guano, and that it was not worth $297, but only about $150, which he offered to pay.' ; Plaintiff , moved for judgment, as the answer does not constitute a de fence, and the Court offered to allow defendant to amend his answer, which being declined, it gave judg ment for plaintiff. Held: That in a case so plain the Court would have been warranted in requiring the answer to be amended. Held: lbatinan action for a de ceit by false representation three things are essential: first, that the representation was false; second, that tne party maKing it Knew Uv was false; third, that it was the false rep resentation mat induced tne con trading party to purchase. , Held, That the defence stated in the answer is. set out with sufficient accuracy to present fairly and unmis takably the defence relied on, and defendant further had the right to have .the jury pass on the question wueiuer piaiuun warranted tne qual uy or tne tertuizer. If a vender represents an article as possessing a value which it does not possess, he is liable on a warranty, expressed or implied, although he may not have known his affirmation to be false, if his representation was fact upon which the purchaser acts: f V MWVB VIVU J I ( iNew. trial awarded.

U: j i; , H ., uuo uuuuaiu, wuu naa a crop or cot ion growing on tne premises.! .Flam tiff claimed that he was entitled to the rent cotton by virtue of the sheriff's levy and his purchase. I Held, that plaintiff acquired no tU we w tun erop oy uis purchase of the iana under execution. I Prior to 1884 growing crops' were the subject of levy as personal proD-r erty. , Since 1884 they are not sub ject to levy until they have matured. I Although under section 1754. thn crops are deemed to be vested in thA lessor, that in only to secure a com puauce oi tne ieaBe. ana tor other purposes the title to the crop is in the lessee. The estate in the land during the lease was in the lessee and ', there oould be no levy, on the grow-: ing crop, and the sale of the land un der execution ing crop.. did not carry the grow: Foreman vs. Drake and Andrews. Foreman leased a hotel to Drake who agreed to famish the hotel and stipulated that "all such furniture is sold and conveyed to Foreman in j trust as security for rent and possi ble damages." Drake subsequently reoeived trom Andrews furniture for the hotel un der an instrument styled "a lease," in which Drake certified "I have agreed to hire said furniture for four and a half months, paying $295 as rent in instalments; and reserving the right to . purchase within the term by paying the same amount of $295, less any rent he may have paid." 1 ' -h .' ' Foreman claimed the property un der the conveyance to him. An drews claimed the property, and of fered his "lease in evidence wnicn was rejected because not registered. Held, That tne agreement De- tween Andrews and Drake was neither a sale nor a conditional sale, but a mere lease or bailme'nt and did not need registration. Held, That Drake had no title which under the hotel lease could be conveyed to Foreman. . - i Held, That the agreement that the lessee might purchase during i the lease did not alter its character; nor did the agreement in regard to the price to be paid alter the contract. ouch an agreement suggests a want of good faith, but cannot alter the purpose of the contract. . . . r - a 1 Acontraos oi mriug neeu,jiui, uoiu writing and need not be registered. J oreman I vs. Hough. Held. ' When in a special proceed ing to sell land for partition, before the clerk, issues, of fact are raised, the case should be transferred to the Court in term time. When this is done, and the parties a crpfi u nnn the facta and snbmit the case to the Court, all possible regu larities of pleadings and proceedings are cured, i Held: That where the maker of a deed conveying land In fee recites a desire to give to the grantees partic ular rights to use the water in a val- uaoie spring on tne premises, tne grantees took nothing additional thereby, the conveyance-of the fee being of the whole estate included all other interests. Wooten vs. Hill. Watkins, a farmer, had executed two chattel mortgages owned by Hill, in which were conveyed his growing ,crop. subsequently Wat kins gavetb plaintiff an agricultural lien to secure advance?, and the con- ttot nr n a n a ' ttiAiitn iield: l bat an unplanted crop is the subject of mortgage, but ! under the statute an agricultural lien for advances to make a crop has priority over mortgages although of earlier date, buch agricultural liens are preferred by the statute.

' Editor of. th& Star t It - appears to me. that-; &H who are acquainted with. what has been attempted and what has ben accomplished - in the way of internal improvements in this j3tate;aa well as the' different roads under contract, and that seem lifeeiy tor be soon constructed cannot fail to see the importance and neossky of having .he j North Carolina and the; Atlantic and North .Car olina Railroads united and operated as one road: f com Charlotte to More head City junder a lease, with all necessary and proper restrictions for a term of ninety-nine years to the Richmond ifc Danville Railroad. ? All who are well posted as to what is doing and will soon be done, can not fail to see that such a step Bhould be taken at as early a , day as possi ble. If this is not done, I cannot see how it is possible to prevent great and lasting injury being done to the roads In question and to many of our towns1, cities and to the State generally, j : J . -: v. ' y ;: I am largely interested in our railroads, and I have been driven to this conclusion from stubborn facts that have been forced on my au tention. : j: 1 i -t If we wish the above roads to con tribute the' greatest good possible to our people the consolidation .and lease should certainly be made and that at an early day. Such was , the design of those who first projected the Central -Railroad from Beaufort harbor to jthe Tennessee line and their purpose should be carried out, and can only be done by adopting the plan I have suggested. Time and experience have conclu sively demonstrated in this and most of the other StateB and that at the cost of untold millions,that improve ments of no kind, cOst or length, can be prudently and profitably managed by State officials appointed by parti zan legislators or State officials, how ever partiotio or gifted thev may be. The Cape Fear & Yadkin Valley Railroad is soon destined I iiope to be extended: toWilmington,and to the Virginia line, there to connect with the Norfolk & Western Railroad. When this 1 important connection is made it -will open a long and direct line of road from Jf ulaski City to W u mmgton, which will pass through as fipe and productive a country as is to be found south of the Ohio river. When the road and its branches are all completed and fully equipped the freight that will be crowded on it from the great coal and iron mines aod furnaQes of western Virginia, to say nothing of the lumber and other articles of; freight that will be offered for transportation along the line, will soon surprise tne most sanguine of its friends. ! In oue word, the two roads will be the great North Carolina State high ways that are soon destined to tell with great power upon the growth and prosperity of our State and people. So in order that every part of the State may. share in the grfeat benefits that may by good management be made to now from thff( two general lines of im provement. 1 New Bern if she is wise will exert herself to the utmost to have a railroid speedily constructed from Wilmington to her own wharves there to IconnHCt" with the above named roads, j which if managed as they houlji hi, will do alt that cm now be doii6 by such improvements for our State. ' The Seaboard system is essentially a Norfolk system, and the road now under contract from Henderson via Dauville, Madison, Winston, Wilkes boro, Tayforsvilie to Charlotte, promises to lo as little for the com mercial growth and prosperity of North Carolina as they do to benefit and enhance 'the value and prosperi tv of the North Carolina Railroad from Charlotte to Goldsboro and still less for the JAtlantio and North Car olina and Nelw Bern road. A full and ! useful survey of all that is going Ion in the State it seems to me, caunptj fail to convince any and all well. informed minds that the policy I have above attempted in a hurried way! to describe, ia the only one that can be adopted that will prevent great harm coming to my native State; J ! . j I Nobth Cabolixa.

Durham. j As this convention, the W. N.

J. D. Huf ham. the same committee on the memorial church at Greenville was continued. This church was built as a memorial to the organization of the , Baptist State Convention, the first meeting of, the body having been held in Greenville a meeting out of. which have grown the ideas and enterprises wnicn nave advanced we rsaptist de nomination to its present position in the State. The idea , was given by Thomas Meredith, Chas. pfcinner and others. There remains a debt 'of $4 500 upon this building, but the .idea oi a debt on a memorial is unpleasant, and the Convention should see that the debt is paid. J . ; Ur. overoy agreed io De one ot sa number to give so much each ' year to pay the debt. Seven hundred and fifty dollars were raised. i The special order ior tms session viz: The .Baptist Historical oociety, was taken up. i Rev. J. S.

EXKRCISKS OF THB CONVEN TION SUNDAY NIGHT SESSION, f After a sermon of much strength by Dr. Huf ham. President Pace took the chair for the closing exercises of the most successful, harmonious and enjoyable session of the Convention that was ever held. . The President addressed the Con vention, the idea of which .address was as follows: I " 1 Ten years ago this Convention met at Durham in a little house in the woods- . I j I The amount contributed to State missions was between f 1.400 and tl.- 600; tbe number of missionaries em ployed was five. How there are eighty-two missionaries, with an ex- penditure of $10,000, and there is no l debt, all missionaries paid in full, over $o,uuo to foreign missions. I The education board has no debt ana its expenditure is larger than ever before. The college then had $40,000 endowment and had then 100 students. Now there are 198 students and an endowment of nearly $200, 000 and no embarrassment save the' ill health of one of its professors. The denomination is larger by 40,000 or 50,00fr than at that meeting ten years ago. All the Boards are out of debt and a great deal has been done ior other causes. JN early 2.000 was raised for the Southern Baptist Theo logical Seminary, $500 for the church at Concord, over $500 for the Orphan age printingipress, $1,037.58 for, the Bryan house in China. Nearly $5,000 were raised for these various objects during the meeting of the Conven tion. ! " I The report of the Women's Central Committee shows that the ladies have raised for different missions over $1,'00 in the last twelve months, and their hearts were in every appeal giving their contributions freely and witnout stint, OUR STATE CONTEITJPORARIES. The Wilmington Stab, (Sunday.) in most excellent editorial disapproves of the State Ezeeutive Committee assuming to themselves the right to formulate party principles. In such company the SoutM erner does not feel lonesome. Tarboro SouVierner. j J It happens that we heartily approve of the declarations of the State Democratic: Committee, but we are free to confess, that if it were at all necessary we would be bold to contend that what they said bas no; binding effect upon the party, if when Ui meets iu convention it chooses to adopt; another policy. It will never happen that 10 or 12 men can bind 150,000. The thing is impossible, and we bave no fears on that; head. Goldsboro Argue. x . Every child ought, at least, to learn the! Ten Commandments, and that they were given for all men by One who has the right to command; and that obedience to tbem increases tbe happiness of the human family. For example, let the teacher show the children how stealing degrades and in jures the rogues themselves, how it injures the owners of property, and the commu nity atlarge, bow it injures the State, and how it offends the Judge of all the earth,. Let him make it plain that a rogue violates three Commandments at once. Let him show that he who violates one Command ment can be relied upon to violate all. if he bas the opportunity.

Well, Judge Russell is about the size man the Democrats can beat out of his boots. - The union revival, conducted by Rev, R. G. Pearson, grows in interest. The church is crowded night ly, and there have been nearly 100 convert sioas up to this time. Charlotte Democrat: Sunday night last, Nov. 20. the thermometer dropped down to 25 degrees. It does really seem to be a fact that the Richmond & Danville Railroad Company is going to give Charlotte a respectable depot building in place of the dog kennel concern we have had for many years. - Judge Russell is a man of pure personal character, and, from what we hear, we think the Republi cans want to run him for Governor. "Virginia will certainly have two very able men ia her next Legislature, Col. A. 8. Bufotd from Richmond and Col. L. D. Starke from Norfolk. Col. Buford is a North Carolinian, and we think Col.

Nashville Advocate. - ; ' I We ought never to be afraid bf God's providences when they seem to break up our lives and crush our hopes and even toj turn us away from our chosen paths of usefulness and service. God knows what he wants to do with us, how he can beet use us, and where and in what line of min istry he would hare us serve. When he abuts one door it ia because he has another standing open for our feet. When he breaks our lives to pieces it is because they will do more for his glory and the world's good broken and shattered than whole. Presbyterian. i While at Aonteagle, "in the Tennessee Mountains," ' last August, the Rev. R. A. Young, D. D., our scholarly ex-Missionary Secretary, mentioned Dr. Mosea D. Hoge, of this city, as without an equal in the pulpit., on either Continent At the recent Presbyterian Convention in Norfolk, Dr. Hogs preachad for our Granby Street church, and it was with difficulty Dr. Tudor could get his eloquent guest through the thronged aisles to tbe chancel. The house held only a part of the people eager to hear a minister renown ed beyond English-speaking people. Richmond Advocate. i Bishop Warren, of the, North ern Church, tajs that the Methodist mis sionaries have established a Theological Institute and spent much money in build ings. Our Church is to furnish a Professor of Old Testament Exegesis. In the midst of thirty millions of heathens hungry for the gospel an apostle crosses the Pacific and squats down in a house to drool and twaddle about Old Testiment criticisms, Hebrew points and such stuff! We can see why God burnt up the seminaries of Dr. Coke to save the "brush college". of the itinerancy. Tho grand old race 'of prophets went to seed in the schools that bred scribes, lawyers, Pharisees. Rich mond Advocate There are hardly ' any civilized men who are not apparently good in points. Some have pet commandments which, they would not break for the world. Almost every man has chosen one commandment, and thinks in keeping that he is keeping - the ten . There are persons who would not steal ior tne worm, yet iney wouia DreaK all tbe other nine commandments as quick ly as they could be handed to them. This is not obedience. This is the worst kind of disobedience. The man who will have nothing to do with tbe commandments at all may take to himself some kind of repu tation for grim consistency; but he who palters with pledges and histories and vows and moralities, pleases himself, and is not exemplifying a spirit of unquestionable obedience. How, then, does it stand with men to day ? We cannot rid men of this sophism, that to do one good thing is to have at least so much reputation for good ness. Dr. Joeeph Parker. It will be seen by a careful reading of the extract appended to this that tbe question at issue is, whether Jesus did condemn the spirit of the modern practice of. conferring the title D. D. when he used the following words, recorded by Matthew in chapter 23:8. "But be not ye .called rabbi, for one is your teacher and all ye are brethren." If we understand them, brother Broad us takes the ground that to construe this language of our Savior into the condemnation cf conferring the title D.jD. is to do what Uteralists do, when they destroy the spirit of a command by interpreting only the letter of that com mand. Upon the other hand, brother Ry land assumes that it is not literalism in that objectionable sense, but that to interpret that Scripture as condemning the confer ring of the title D. D. is to follow the teachings both of the letter and of the spirit of our Master's words. We have not the slightest doubt in our mind that the position of brother Ryland is correct. Western N. C. Baptixt. POLITICAL. POINTS. The result of the election in New Tork is of national importance. It settles the nomination of the President by acclamation, and it makes the nomination of Mr. Blaine extremely improbable. Harperl Weekly, Mugwump. : Shirts are being exported from this country, and the women of New York who make them get 85 cents a dozen for doing it. Wouldn't it be well for Great Britain to adopt a protective tariff against the pauper labor of New York 7 Boston Olobe, Bern. j- The new Assistant Secretary of State from New York is. it seems, a Demo crat of Mugwump tendencies, as he voted for JNicoll in the late New York city elec tion! We presume, however, the Presi dent did not take him because of bis poli cies. -Boston Herald, Ind. Rep, , si ssa , Charlotte ITornet: Yesterday morning, at Monroe, Emanuel Bristol, a colored man, shot and killed another col ored: man named Will Matthews. The killing was the result of a quarrel on the preceding night, which was renewed yes terday morning. Both of the men were section hands of Capt. Fortune, the section master at that place. Bristol was very close; to Matthews when he fired, and the bullet went iu just over Will's heart He expired in a very short time . Bristol es caped in the confusion.
