Light rain last week, a groat deal of tobacoo was'plaoted but the season was ■o light that a large number of the plants died. Mr. S E. Allen and family, of Win ston, N.

Hill was in town Monday and Tuesday Ukiog the list for Meadows towuship. The very best thin* for North Caro lina is that she should manufacture her two great staples, Cotton and Tobacco.

This should uot be, it being a question in which tbe people are individually in. terested, and should be fairly and hon estly discussed, so as to thr»w the great est amount of light on the subject that tbe people may vote' intelligibly on it next August We believe that any dis position to use fraud by the ami men will add strength to the prohibition cause, or, if used by th« prohibitionists, will add to the strength of the opposition. It ii said that "seeing is believing," and that "acts gpeak louder than words " Be that ai it may, the anti prohibition ists are doing more tor the cause in this oounty than all the prohibition speakers and papers combined. By manufactur ing and selling poison liquors, and law lesa men collecting at blockade still houiat for the purpose of protecting per aons who hare violated the criminal laws of the State. They are fust turning public opinion against the legitimate, a well as the unlawful traffic in whiskey. If public opinion once set squarely against it, the traffic will ba killed quick er, and more effectually than n score of prohibitory laws could do it with publio opiaion divided. [Troy.. (N.Y.) Press.] Editorial Approval. Mr. W. J. Melvin, Editor YVarren, Mats. Herald, was oured of severe Neuralgia by the use of St. Jaeobs Oil. Danbury praseo d quite n war-like appearance last Saturday evening, squads of armed men galloping around town re minded one of the days of 18G1-65 They belonged to the posse summoned by the sheriff, and had mot here for the purpose of attempting th» arrest of a number ol lawless men, (about thirty in number) who madam rumor said l> ad collected at a certain blockade still house in the northern part of the county. The still house was found the uext day iu full blast, but not a man was to be seen, it was doing its own stilling, a revenue officer witli the sheriffs posse put an end to ita Sunday work, by demolishing the still, and lelliug out several stands of beer. His LAST DOSE —Said a sufferer from kidney troubles wheu asked to try Kidney-Wort. "I'll tiy it but it will be my Lst d'ise " Tlio man got well, and is now reoouiuiending the remedy to all. When derangement of the stomach acts upon the kidneys und liver bringing disease and paiu, Kidney-Wort is the true remedy. It removes the cause and cures the disease. Liquid (very concentrated) nr dry act squally efficiently.— A in . Cultivator SYMPTOMS.—SIight pain in the side, the skin and eyei assume a thick yellow ooat, degestion is impaired, an unpleasant sinking sensation at the pit of tho stom ach is experienced, the bowels are irreg ular, the mind fretful, tho memory weak ened, sometimes a slight cough, coldness of the hands anil feet, sometimes loss of apjiCfito and at others unnatural craving for food, dizziness of the head, depretsed spirits, feeling ol uncertainty, of having left something undone, but can't tell what it is. Take Simmons' Liver Reg ulator, it will remove all unpleasant feel ings ar.d make you well. ".WI THER HAS RECOVERED,"—wroIo an Illinois girl to her Eastern relatives. "She took bitters 'for a long t':u)« but without any good So when she heard of the virtu?s of Kidney-Wort she got a box and it has completely cured her, so that she can do as much work now as Bbe could before we moved West. Since she has got well everyone about here is taken it." See adv. GRF *T EXClTEMENT.—Commissioners couit met Monday, though tho crowd waj small, madam rumor was vory busy on tho streets. Five hundreu reports, more or lesa, were eirculuted regarding the desperadoes in tnc northern part of tho county Another man- repotted shot Russell* creek church Sunday, from thirty to two hundred armed mea report ed banded together for the purpose of resisting the Stale authorities. Talk of calling on the 'Jovcrnor for troops, send ing ler artillery &c , and almost anything else you wish to hear. Re quiet gentle men, no danger whatever, only half a doien men trying t J bully the couuty au thorities. Stukes has five hundred as good, true and tried men as can ba found in the bouude of this great country. FROM THE Hun—There is perhaps no tonic offered to tho people that poss esses as much real intrinsic value as the Mop Litters. Just at this season of the year, when the stomach needs an appo tizer, or tho blood needs purifying, tho cheapest and best remedy is Hop Ritters. An ounco of prevention is worth a pound of cure ; don't wait until ynu aro pros trated by a disease that may take months for you to reoover in.— Boston Globe. The Eastern end of the locust belt i,i said to be about D mbury, Stukes County. The belt extends westward as far as Franklin, Macon Couuty, and how much farther, we have not heard.— Lenoir Topic. Mistake brother Topic , no lucust in these diggings. The San Francisoo Post insists that our navy should b- 1 provided with arte sian wells, so that each craft can have fresh water all the lime. Would it not be better to carry along a nice littlo cow lot with a clump of shade trees surrounding cue of those 000 l mountain springs, and a nice little spring houso just below it; fresh cream, butter and 000 l spring water would bo so nice when one was away out in uiid oeean. Plenty of those beautiful springs around the base of the mountain here, cheap too, much cheaper than artcsiaa wells HACK FOR SALB.— A real No. 1 two-horse hook made of tho best timber, well ironed, and painted, three springs, three seats, frame top, leather cushions and dash, with steel tire, for sulo by Pepper & St>ns. 15c it remembered that a joint meet ing of tho Bovra of C iinnitL'siiTiers KIIJ Justices ol the peace was held at tho Court IIOUPO in Danbury on tho C'li day of June 1881.
