It la do little surprise thai a com munity should feel much iud.g-, nance over the murder of a pcac able citiien by k worthless prowl ing THgrant thai would rather reap thb rewards of others' honest toil, ven by murdering the r:.-'oi.r, than to ern his cwri" bread, but it most bfT'regretted that public pacsion became so extreme as to Uke Willia out and chain him be tween treees aad burn him.

After he silvery corn had been shacked and tbe shocks comfortably housed, while (upper was being served, the buskers waiting their torn at table, hovered around a blazing oat-door fire.

These contest! each between two unlike Webster's defi nition were conducted as follows: No. 1, lying prostrate on his back, is embraced by his antagonist, the bod les of the two lying at sharp angles. The contest is whether No. 1 can get on top by str ngth or artifice. One blatant negro wagered $5 (in brag gart's currency) that no one coo Id bold him down two minutes. A white fellow, to preserve tbe oredit of Caucasian muscle, grappled with ths wagerer, holding him down firmly till time was called. The ebony boaster, however, vociferated, "Yerdidn' do it; yer can't do i !" with other like palaver, more or less copiously flavored with juicy exple tives, whereupon the white youth fulminated, "I don't like to souffle with a nigger, neither do I want to fight a nigger, bat I don't want to be insulted by a nigger."

Brief, N. 0., Nov. 27, '97. The Farmer Hnlaal. The Farmers' Matual Fire In surance Association of Cabarrus met at the court boose Saturday at 2:80 o'clock. President Zeb Morris in ths chair. Agent Chas. M Palmer acted as secretary. There were more than thirty-five members present. Mr. J SO Carpenter, the State agent, was present and addressed the meeting ia his own entertaining way that be insists is not oratory. Agents Palmer and McQueen re poited $330,000 insurance in ths county op to date. The association nasjhad one loss, that of Mr. Flor ence Wallace, as noted in Ths Stahdabd. At tha 'time of this loss, which was $700, the policies of the association amounted to $244,- 000; tba assessment was therefore about 31 cents on every $100; $628 -39 of the amount is already in tbs treasnry and tha time allowed for collection only expires on the l?ib of December. Notice was Riven that at the next annual meeting thera would be a proposition to cre ate small emergency fond tbat tbs township supervisors might meet trivial losses without having to call on the policy holders for too vary small amounts. Tbe question arose as to whether tbe insurance covered stock outside of the buildings insured. The real scheme of insurance do'S rot con template this as it is insurance agaiust loss of is dated buildings aui their cootents. Boms understood that a bone icinrtd in a barn is in snred anywhere, others understand thit only tbe stock as cn en s of s building is insured against loss by fire, storm an 1 lightning. Ic was readily seen that a uniform understanding is well enough to r r ye a', out a deoision either way u tbe smallest f-oaaible evil. Every man knows tbat if tbe insuranot covers bis horse outside his stable it covers all otheis thus insured, and if he baa no inference 00 his horse out- tide bis tarn be has no liabili'y to pay tbe loss of others' horses under the same, circumstances Wha ever deoision is arrived at will be cheer fully acquiesced in, for it tears tqually, in its advantages and disad vantages, upon all. We hays no hesitation in saying mat this association is ote of tbe best institutions we know of, and we were glad to see that it is io the very best of working order. Frank Jackson, colored, refused a Thanksgiving pardon from the Governor of Missouri. He think it would be warmer for him ia tbe penitentiary this winter than oui of it. Tbe new Ilaleigh paper, the Morning Post, is to appear Wednes day, December 1st. Tm Teaahera. IV ' It has been suggested by asms of tha teachers that a Cabarrus county Teachers' Association be formed. The suggestion is a good one, and is in accordanoe with ths recommenda tion of the State superintendent. A well attended and well conducted teachers' association should be or ganised in every oonnty of the State. To carry oat the suggestion, tbe second Saturday tha 11th of Decem ber at 11 a. tn., ia tho oeurt honse, is appointed as the time for meeting All teachers in Gabarros county are respectfully invited to be present then for the purpose of effecting an organization. 1 There is no better way of improv ing tbe public sohools than by im proving ourselves, and there ia no better way of improving ourselves as teachers than coming together for tbe purpose of discussing ths wants of ths schools, . and oar duties as teachers. To make others think well of , the work of the teacher, the leaoher mast think well of it himself. To make others appreciate tha value of the publio sohools, - the teaohers must make them valuable; A well oondaoted Teaohers' As sociation vwill do .' much towards adding to the efficiency of the pnblic schools, ' It Is hoped that every publio school teacher in the county will receive the above invitation with favor and attend the meeting.
