Oakdale Academy. We have received an invitation to attend the closing exercises of Oak dale Academy, in Alamance county, which will take place June the 9th, 1881. Prof. S. Simpson, A. M., President of Yadkin College, will de liver the literary addres: 3STcw Orjrau. Baptist congregation at tliis The p;a e haw purchased a new organ, which first used at their church last Sunday and gave much satisfac tion. Within the past year or two this congregation have newly painted and repaired tkeir church, making it one of the neatest in the county, and have bought a new bell and organ. Tine Oats. Mr. Thomas H. Harrington has sent us a sample of his oats that beats anything that we have seen or heard of this year. He savs that he has four acres ot the oats all as good as the sample sent, and grown without any guano. If the stalks were much larger they might be used for walk ing fcticks! Large Turkeys. We have noticed several of our ex changes boasting of large wild tur keys that had recently been killed in different counties, but we claim that Chatham can beat theni all. Mr. J. A. Scott, of Bear Creek township, has recently killed three wild turkeys that were remarkably large, one cf them weighing twenty-three pounds and the otiier two weighing twenty two pound apiece, and having beards eleven and eleven and a half inches long. Now, beat this if you can. Changeable Weather. Within a week's time we have had as changeable weather as ever known iu this latitude. The three last days of last week were excessively hot, hotter indeed than it usually is in July, the thermometer indicating a temperature of 9-4 degrees, and yet the first days of this week were unseasonably cool, the thermometer yesterday going down as low as 50 degrees, making fires and winter clothing quite comfortable again. Change of Schedule. There has been a slight change made in the schedule of the mail trains on the Raleigh & Augusta Air Lino railroad, resuming the same old schedule that existed prior to the change made nbout two months ago. The mail train will hereafter leave Raleigh at 7:15 p. m. and arrive at a. m. A passenger coach his been put on the freight train, which yill be a great convenience to persons living along the time of this road. This train leaves Raleigh at 7 a. in. and arrives at 2:10 p. m. Suggestion to Letter-Writers. All persons who write many letters should always have their address written or printed upon the envelope uith request to return if not called for within a certain time. This cus t urn generally prevails among business men and has proved to be of much service. It is state.) that during the last year over 25,000 letters, contain ing one million three hundred and one thousand seven hundred and eighty dollars, were sent to the Dead Letter Office, Washington, a large share of t i em because of a lack of care in the address on the envelope. Every one of them would have been returned to thn writers by the Post masters, within ten days, free of charge, if the return address had been printed or written on the out .side. The New Court-House . Our county commissioners held a special meeting last Saturday and de cid&i upon the plan and specifica tions for the new court-house. Else where we publish their advertise meiit to contractors for proposals for ouuuing it. ii tiie uuildinfir is erect ed according to the plan adopted it will be probably the best arranged court-house in the State, and will cer tainly be an honor to our county, Ihe length will be ninety feet and width lifty-seven feet. There will be four trables and four entrances ihe vestibule being on the western end, and a cupola eighty seven feet high on the northern side. The pas sages are ten feet wide, forming j rotunda m the centre. On the first floor will be six rooms (same number as m our present court house) and two fire-proof vaults. The court room is on the second floor, is seven ty feet long by fifty-three feet wide. and will have comfortable seats for at least four hundred persons. In the roar of the Judge's seat will be a room for him. There will be three stairways, two from the vestibule on the western end and one in the rear leading up to the Judge's room. The building will be made of brick and covered with a tin roof. Chatham County Tobacco. The cultivation of tobacco in this county can be made a very profitable business, as will be seen from the following that is copied from the Durham Recorder : "Iu old times, the Fayetteville to bacco market was largely supplied with the coarse, red sun cured to bacco, raised on the rich red new grounds of Chatham county, rolled roughly to market in hogsheads which trundled along through jiud and water without much regard to the contents of the package. .In truth the tobacco was hardly worth the carriage. A quarter of a century ago, that culture died out entirely, and Chatham was heard of no more as a tobacco count', until very recently, when it has sprung very suddenly in to the very foremost rank as the pro ducer of the very finest bright yel low. The gray lands on the North em border attracted the eye of intel ligeut and progressive farmers, and the experiment was made; with what success is shown by the experience of Mr. W. F. Stroud. On Friday last, he sold in Parrish and Black- well's, and in Meadows and Crews' of his last warehouses, a portion years crop, about $18. obtaining an average of At Parrish & Blackwell's he sold a small lot for 81.55 per pound, and at Meadows & Crews for 31.05 and $1.15 per pound." Against Prohibition. Merry Oiks, X. C, May 14, '81 Mr. Editor : You said iu your pi per some time ago that you would publish articles on the side of liquor as well as on the other side. Now will you give me a short space in your paper to express my views ? Now it is said that all or most of the evils ot the country are caused by liquor. I deny it and call for the proof. Liquor hurts no man unless he drinks it, and it is a first rate medicine in colic and snake bites. But they say if there are stills and bar-rooms men will drink too much spirits, and I heard a certain man not long ago speaking of a girl at Merry uafcs last year killed by drink ing tr much spirits. He was trying to hurt the liquor business by this case. .Now sir, I would just ask this question. Suppose it is true that men and women sometimes drink too much, who have they got to blame for it but themselves ? No one is forced to drink at all. Now sir, there was as much whiskey made, drunk and sold in the time of St. Paul, I believe, as there is now. Now if it is such a great sin to still whiskey and have a bar-room, why did not Paul say so? He did not. He said certain, that it is good to take something for the ft niach's sake. If people want to drink too much it is their own busi ness. If a man wants to get drunk let him get drunk. Let every tub stand on its own bottom. Sir, I am in favor of liberty and I don't want my liberty taken away from me. I wont say whether I have ever made or sold liquor or not. But I say that in this free country, I have as much right to make and sell spirits as Mr. Lasater has to sell calico. Why not ? I thought in a free country every man had a right to do as be pleased. Sir, my forefathers in the Revolution fought for liberty. I have always been of the same principles. I have always been a libertine. All my family are libertines. And I expect to be so till I die. Therefore sir, I call upon all the libertines in Chat ham to vote against this bill next August. I am not afraid nor asham ed to express my principles, I am willing to argue this question with any of them on the other side. We must be particular hereafter who we send to the Legislature. We ought to elect none but. libertines. Sir, it is said by some that the liquor seller makes a great deal of money, I deny it. Some of them I know make something and are thus able to suppott their families, but there are few who do this. The biggist part of them make very little, and yet a poor fellow who follows this business is abused all over the State. I say this is persecution. I say Mr. Editor that a man who sells liquor is just as respectable as any merchant in Mer ry Oaks, and they are better friends of the poor women and children than a great many others. Now sir, I hope every body in Au gust will vote against Prohibition. Liquor hurts no man unless he drinks it. Some times when men are drunk, they have a little fight. But generally no harm is done. That is all. And I say that everywhere, where they have tried Prohibition it has done no good. L9t any one deny this if he dares. And Mr. Edi tor, the tax, iaid by liquor sellers, goes to educate the children of the btate. I say, therefore, that the liquor sellers are the best friends of the poor children of the good Old otate. inereiore 1 hope every body will vote against Prohibition. Liberty. State XUews. News and Observer: Mr. W. M. Jones, of Cary, has a white crow. It was taken, a few weeks since, out of a nest, in company with a brother crow, who was black. Durham Recorder: The commis sioners of Durham county at their adjourned meeting an Tuesday, re solved by a vote of four to one to grant no licenses for the ensuing year. Wilmington Star : Mr. John J. Hicks, of Topsail Sound, informs us that he killed an eagle one day last week which measured seven feet and eight inches from tin to tin of his wings. Baleigh Visitor : The committee appointed by Gen. W. R. Cox to ex amine upon the merits of candidates to fill the vacancy at West Point, unanimously recommend Mr. Wil liam H. Wilder of this county for the position. Concord Register : On Tuesday, about half past six in the evening, a terihic hurricane passed through this section. In many places in this county timber was prostrated, fences blown down and roofs of buildings stripped. Ashboro Courier : The Hoover Hill Mining Co. means business. Con tracts are out now for the expenditure of more than 850,000, and it is said that $350,000 more is to be expended. Randolph can afford to welcome such companies. Kinston Journal : Mr. R. T. Daughetj, of Sand Hill township, had cabbage on the 5th that measured 17 inches across. One dav last week he caught a blue heron in a fish net, which measured 5 feet, li inches in height. Raleigh Visitor : Frederic W. Si- raonds, Esq., Professor of Geology, Zoology and Botany at the Universi ty of rorth Carolina, has tendered hia resignation, which was formally accepted. Prof. Simonds retires on account of ill health. Charlotte Democrat : It is announc ed that there is to be a Convention of the colored people of this State at Raleigh on the 17th inst., to look after their political interests (the offices). They ha 1 better hold a Convention to look after their breal-and-meat interests. Lumberton Robesonian : Wes. Shaw, a negro living on the planta tion of Mr. Henry Fairley, abont five miles from this place, attacked his wife, about ten days ago, in a field where they were at work, and beat her so unmercitully as to render her totally unable to walk. Wilmington Review : We hear it from good authority that Henry Berry Lowery, the out law chief, still lives, and he is now aseargent iu theU. S. Army and is stationed somewhere on the plains in the far we3t. He left the Scuffletown section, about the time of his reported death, in a tool chest and was taken out of the State by the way of Charlotte. Wilmington Review: It known to farmers thnt is well one of their standing difficulties is that our colored laborers dislike to split rails and but few hands are able to split more than one hundred and fifty a day out of ordinary pine timber. But there is a one-armed Confederate soldier living in Pender county easily splits his three hundred rails a day out of common pine trees. Fayetteville Examiner : The dwell ing house ot Mr. Jerry Jones, at Bunn's Level, Harnett county, was consumed by fire last week. The house caught from a defective stove pipe in the kitchen which adjoined the house. There was a total loss of everything in the house except a part of the furniture. We hear that there was no insurance upon this fine property. Alamance Gleaner: An informal meeting of the friends of the Danville and Haw River Railroad met in the Court House this morning for the purpose of subscribing to the capital stock. U41 shares were taken. Ihe number of shares necessaiy to be taken before the company can be or ganized is five hundred. We hope that since such a long step has been taken in the right direction the amount necessary will be speedily subscribed. charlotte Observer: Mr. Henry Pannill, of this city, has perfected an apparatus for catching fish, which meets the ideal of the lazy fisherman, entitles him to the thanks of that en tire class of people. It saves all strain upon the eyes in watching the cork, all labor in holding the pole, and enables a man, if inclined to be literary, to read his book and fish at the same time, or to take a nap or do anything he pleases, so that he keeps within reasonable distance of his hook. Moore Gazette : Business engage ments have rendered it necesary for us to make frequent trips through this and adjoining counties during the past few weeks; and we have been much gratified at the hard, ear nest, paying work being done by the farmers. Every where on large plantations and small farms in the cultivation of cotton, and raising of corn and small grain, the keeping of the farm in good, thrifty order there is an improvement, an advancement, which shows that our people are moving steadily onward to substan tial and permanent prosperity. Com post heaps turned in, piles cf home made manure being utilized, commer cial fertilizer used liberally; and with al, are making this one of the finest farming sections of Iorth Carolina. Wilmington Star: An observant gentleman informs us that there is a belt running through Granville, Wako and into Harnett which lies between sandstone and granite for mations, in which people live upon an average longer that elsewhere, where the hogs never have cholera and cat tle do not suffer with diseases that prevail among them elsewhere. We tell the story as it is told to us. Elizabeth City Economist : Colum bia, the county seat of Tyrrel county is a progressive town since we visi ted it at the last term of the Superior court. Local prohibition hae been the law of the town for a year or more and exerted a most salutary influence upon the place. It seemed to impart new life to business for a while and was building up the place, but the present tendency is to extend the limits rather than build ud the waste places within the carporation. Statesville Landmark : The locusts have come and are infesting the forests and making the woods of Ire dell county sonorous with their nctes. We hear of them south and east of Statesville, and it is said that they aoounu in great numbers in Sharpes burg township, and that the hoo-s are getting faton them. They come up out oi me ground, and hogs will forsake corn for them. These locusts are not accounted destructive, and the greatest objection to them is the monotonous din which thov make in the woods. Tarboro Southerner : The commu nity was shocked on Monday at the sau intelligence ot the death of Lobert H Pender, E9q. which occur red at his homo near Ridcewav on Monday at 5 o'clock A M. He was kicked by a colt, on Friday last, which ue nad gone into the stable to bridle and saddle, evidently for the purpose of riding. When found by the feed boy he was lvmg m the stable rest ing his head upon his hand, with a wound on his iorehead. He was borne into the house, but never spoke until his death. The doctor in attendance said his death was caused by concus sion oi the brain. Fayetteville Examiner : Mr. Gao. Overbaugh has had a Telomacro phoue put iu operation between his livery s able and the Favetteville Hotel. This is the latest invention in this line, and ie a decided improve ment on any telephone we have seen. It not only convoys the sound, but multiplies it, so that a conversation can bo carried on in an ordinarv tone. and be heard an v where in his large office. There is no bell signal at tached, but this is obviated bv tan ping on a button in the centre of the box, which can be heard distinctly at the other end of the Hue at a con siderable distance from the instru ment. Wilson Advance: On Tuesday morning of this week Mr. Thomas AmerBon, together with several others, was ploughing in Mr. J. H. Draughau's field, about three miles from town, when a storm came up and Ihey took shelter under a shed near by. The lightning striking a tree near the shec, passed down a post within two feet of the place where Mr. Amerson was sitting, knocking him senseless, burning his shoulders and the side of his head, and at the same time striking a horse, which fell on Mr. Amerson. The others who were under the shed "were j not injured. Robesonian : Mr. Geo. E. Rancke, Proprietor of Rancke's Hotel, of this town, is the owner of a milch cow, which is very vicious and which can not be milked without disabling her from kicking, fighting, &c. Often when something to oat is given her she will paw and break in pieces the vessel containing it. Last Sunday morning she was especially obstreper ous, her looks Bwearing sudden de struction against all that could be in jured, owner included. Having heard binding a cord around just above the udder would render docile the most refractory cow, Mr. Rancke tried it with the best results. The cow stood perfectly still while she was being milked and until the cord was re moved. Durham Recorder : In our last wo briefly mentioned the accident which befei Dr. W. R. Hughes, with some inaccuracies of statement. He was driving homeward, late in the even ing at a somewhat rapid rate, when the wheels of his buggy ran into a drain which crossed the road, caus ing him to lose his seat and fall violently out on hid face which was severely cut by 'pointed rocks. His right arm was badly broken, the boues protruding. He was taken to the residence of Mr. Richard Thom son, near by, where he remained until next morning when he was taken to his home. There was unfortunate de lay, in procuring surgical aid. Ery sipelas rapidly supervened, and he died on Sunday morning at 2 o'clock Newbernian : The shipment of fish from Newberne from the 1st day of October, 1880, to the 1st of April, 1881, numbered 7,680 tubs, contain ing an average weight of 175 poundr, aggregating 1,344,000 pounds of fresh fish ; this statement does not include salt fish, such as mullet, mackerel, herring and other varieties, of which hundreds upon hundreds of barrels are shipped throughout the year, but embrace only fresh fish, iced and intended for immediate use. When we inform our readers that Newbern fish compete in the Southern cities, Augusta, Atlanta and even Macon, with fish from Savannah, and that they find ready sale in the larger cities of the North, then they can form some estimate of its importance. To supply the local demand, we are informed, requires from 500 to 1,000 bunches of fish daily. Of the edi le fish offered for sale in our market, there are over sixty different varieties, among which are some of the most delicious and highly-prized fish that swim in tho waters of America. Granville Free Lance: The stock holders of a railroad to run from Roxboro to some other point, either Uxiord, .Durham or South Boston, met in that place last Saturday. A Board of Directors was elected, and the Board afterwards elected the following officers: Col C. S. Win- stead, Pretident; Thos H. Stroet. Treasurer, and W. E. Webb, Secre tary. The private subscription amoun ted to $17,000. Mr. W. T. Black weli sent word to the meeting that he would subscribe $10,000 or more if the road was run to Durham. Statesville Landmark: Intelligence of an occurrence at once comical and tragical, comes from Union Grove township, in the extreme northern part of this county. One day last week a youth of the name of John Brown, aged twenty or twenty-one years, with a view to breaking a little nephew of the habit of eatiog dirt, which he had unhappily contracted, took him out to a tree and told him of his purpose to hang him for his vile habit. Ho accordingly tied a rope around his neck and swung him up to a limb. After letting him hang awhile, for the purpose of frightening him thoroughly, he cut the child down, but unfortunately the experi ment had been carried too far. The same night the child died. No one ascribes to the uncle any criminal purpose and he has not been taken into custody. With all due respect to the opin ion of our esteemed contemporary we cannot see anything " comical " in this homicide, but think the murder er ought to be nuuished. or tdaced in an insane asylum. Ed. Record. Woman's Wisdom. "She insists that it is more imoor- tance, that her family shall be kept in full health, than that she should have all the fashionable dresses and styles of the times. She therefore sees to it, that each member of her family is supplied with enough Hop bitters, at the first appearance of any symptoms of any ill health, to prevent a fit of sicknese with its attendant expense, care and anxiety. All women should exercise their wisdom in this." New Haven Palladium. At his residence near LockvilleN. C.,on the 17th lust., William Hack.net, aged about 45 years, NOTICES. Tombstones for Sale.
