A Sensible Preacher.
Dr. Preston said last Sunday
nighty in the course of his sermon,
that he was surprised that as pro
gressive a city as Charlotte had no
system of organized charity. He
held up Wilmington as an example.
This city, he said, was trampridden;
he wondered ;why all the tramps in
respondence. I wonder if the Cau
casian has a better book to offer? If
so I would like to see him trot 'er
out, I wonder if he didn't learn in
a Blue-back what a B A was,
and get from it also the schooling
that might be better utilized than
in writing free silver editoriaie?
They may all say what they please
about. "Old Webster," but they .all
have to look betweon its lids for
their "accenta"ana "pronunciations."
Free silver has a black eye in this
neck of the woods just at this time,
as the boys have all gone a duck
hunting, Chrstmas is on our handa,
