T.Ts HEADLIGHT, Cheapest Advertising Medium Ti,i-i:siay Mokxixg, July 10, 1888. LOCAL FLASHES. The law requires a new registration 0f voters this year. 'j "he killing of Mr. Wm. Porter is the talk of the day. t is still in order to provide your pt dog with a badge and prolong his d.iys. White beavers are all the go here now, the man without one looks lone some. . A colored man who was an inmate of the asylum near this citys died a few days since. We suggest that the Democratic primaries in the different townships he held early in August. The cemetery in this city is in the best condition that we have ever seen it. We are glad to see this. The large Crowd here on the 13th was the best behaved that we ever saw to take the crowd as a whole. From what we can learn, there is ery little sickness in this city. The health of Goldsboro is remarkable. Our merchants will be glad to see one month pass away, then trade will improve some, though this life is short This city is very quiet at this time. Our officers are not as busy as they were during this month last year. One advantage; cf the' excursion to Morehead cn the 24th, is that the trip going and coming, is made in the day time. Our authorities are still correspond ing with Water-works contractors, and we believe we shall yet have Water works. The sermon of Rev. J. 8. Dill at the Baptist Church on Sunday night was greatly enjoyed by a br0c congre gation. A crowd of colored excursionists c.une to this city from Wilmington list Monday, and returned to that city the fame evening. There will be an important meeting of the Cleveland and Fowle Club on Friday night. It is hoped all the members will attend. W e learn the street pumps in our city will soon be put in nice condition. This will be a good thing; good water is essential to health. Farmers complain that crops especi ally corn is suffering severely for rain. The prospect for crops in this section is not very encouraging. The trains on the Atlantic Coast Line was crowded on Tuesday evening, not only with soldiers, but many others svho were going along with them. The Y. 31. C. A-, in this city are gaining in numbers, and in interest, the outlook is good for accomplishing much for the benefit of young men. One of our city farmers, J . E. Peter son, planted his cotton crop over after the hail on June 7th, and July 17th had cotton blooms. This was quick growth in about five weeks. Our efficient Superintendent of Pub- lie Schools, Capt. D. J. Broadhurst, was the busiest man in town on Monday, eximiuing teachers and at tending to the duties of his office. The Rev. P. D. Gold, cf Wilson, conducted the morning services at the Primitive Baptist Church in this city lust Sunday, and pivached n eloquent sermon before a devout congregation. William Lynch from Greene county, charged with illicit distilling waived an examination before U. S. Commis sioner Cogdell cn Tuesday. Not giv ing bond he was committed to prison j again. Merchants ought to be sure that their places of business are securely locked at night, several cases have been re ported by the policemen to the Mayor recently where parties left their doors unfastened. And still the good work of our Con gressman, the Hon. Chas. W. McClaru my continues, lie has recently estab lished a new postoffice in this county and named it "Cogdell," with Capt. v. A. Cogdell as postmaster. Mr. Joshua Johnson, a brick mason M as painfully hurt by a section of brick falling on his head and back while ot work on a brick building for Mr. John Slaughter Jr. It is hoped that his injuries will not prove serious. The complimentary concert given ' deserves the happiness that the love on Thursday night for the benefit of j and companionship of a true voir an Miss Clara Jones, the vocalist, was a j will bring him. Our readers may now success in every respect. The Opera j look forward to still greater improve House was filled to its utmost capaci- j ments in the Hkadhght. The hap ty, and everybody was highly delight- ; py couple, passed through the city ed with the fine music rendered by the members of the "Momens Musi- r; cWnr of rare uiusiclc talent and wc predict a sue - cessful future for her. I .... . . . r: zfL??J:imM'-MXam-'- "'!?Ji?.! iinini 'in ii wm a There was an alarm of fire on Tues day caused by an outside building in the rear of the Gregory hotel being on fire. The fire was oon extinguished by buckets of water and our excellent fire department was not called out. Mr. Samuel Ireland a highly respect ed citizen of the Faison section and father of Mrs. L. D. Giddens of this city died on Monday last, aged 8G years on the day he died. The family have the sympathy of this community.- On Tuesday night as Wm. Lynch th man charged with illicit distilling was being carried to Italeigh, and as the freight train was near the colored asylum he sprang from the train and escaped from the officers, who had him in charge. There was less drinking at the larqe Democratic ratification meeting here on the 13th than we ever saw for 6uch an immense crowd. Our officers say that there Is nothing like as much drunkenness as there was a few years ago. We trust some steps will be taken to remove the old stables next to Mr. L. I. Giddens new b'riek store on Wal nut street. This much frequented street Mill look much better. and some valuable property will not be endanger ed by fire: The young men of La Grange brought down a club to this city on Friday evening, numbering over twenty. They were headed by their President, C. W. Joyner, and with their plug hits and red bandannas presented quite a hand some appearance. The Coroners Jury in the case of the killing of W. IT. Porter of this city on Friday night last, concluded their labors on Tuesday, Bud Ander son the man charged with the killing was committed to jail to await trial before the next Superior Court. The trial of Ed. Long as accessory to the killing of W. II. Porter in this city on Friday night last was heard on Monday before J ustices Peterson and Broadhurst, after examining a large number of witnesses, the case was dis missed and Long discharged. The Crescent Opera Company com posed of twenty-one members, will hold the boards of the Opera House in this city cn July S:Oth, '27th and 28th, The company is first class in every respect, mid we trust that our music-loving citizens will give them a full house. Don't fail to bear in mind the ex cursion to Morehead on the 24th. The gentlemen running this excursion know how to make it pleasant for all who go on their excursion. Fare round trip only one dollar. Reduced rates for board, train will leave here at 9:30 a. m., on the 21th returning on the evening of tlie 2Gth. Our nice soldier boys, the Golds boro Hides, went down to the encamp ment at Wrightsville Sound on Tues day evening. The people of Golds boro cannot too highly appreciate the Rifles. They are a noble band, and are always ready when needed. May they have a pleasant trip, and a safe return to their quarters here. We want to call attention to the road that leads to the colored asylum, near this city: not that the road is in bad condition, but that iu some places it is so narrow that it. is almost im possible for two vehicles to pass, there was almost an accident there on Tues day, when a buggy containing some ladies was force d in the ditch by a passing wagou. Let the road be wid ened.

He was put in there the day before on the charge of running an illicit distillery. o Cur Chief Married. "Oh, married love ! each heart shall own, Where two congenial souls unite, Thy golden chains inlaid with down, Thy lamp with heaven's own splendor bright." ' The local-editor and typos of th Headlight extend their sincerest congratulations to Mr. A. Roscower, the editor-in-chief, in his marriage to Miss Victoria Womble, of Gary, X.

Hilton THE GUARD RATIFICATION Goldsboro Aroused. Grand Torchlight Precession. The Democrats of Wayne, joined by many from the adjoining counties, as sembled in this city last Friday night to ratify and endorse the nominations of the State and National conventions. A special train arrived from Newberne at G:30 that evening, bringing Judge lowle, Maj. S. M. Finger, Theo. F. Davidson Esq., and Rev. G. W. San- rr. T m aeilm. The Lagrange M. D. C, was also in attendance iu force and in campaign uniform. At 8:30 o'clock a procession was e , . L . , . formed in front of the court house , . , ., . , , ... about two miles in length, with the Goldsboro Band in front followed by i a- n t -i r t , the . M. D. C, of Lagrange, the Goldsboro Club and a large number of other Democrats, till bearing torch lights and transparances with appro priate mottoes. The procession march ed through the principal streets follow ed by carriages containing the speak ers, and the first stop was made at Mr. D. Creech's store, where Dr. W. J. Jones in his usual happy style intro duced the Rev. Geo. W. Sanderlin, who was greeted with tremendous ap plause. The speaker said that his text would be the Young Men's Demo- cratic Clubs. lie told them of th importance of organizing for effective work His arguments and exhorta tions were illustrative and enforced by manv rich and humorous anecdotes ad Wre intarruPud with foment amlaus The next stop was made at the beau tiful illuminated residence of Mayor Peterson who in a happy and well con ceived speech, very appropriate and well delivered, introduced Col. A. M. Waddell and who was received with loud and long continued applause. "The Democratic party," Col. Wad dell said," would gain no victory by terrorism, by the corrupt use of power and money, but would wiu by a sober appeal to reason. Cleveland was the synonym of every civic virtue and Thurman was the noblest Roman of them all." Co!. Waddell was often interrupted by applause, and his speech was as usual, a model of pn priety and eloquence. At the spacious and beautiful illu minated grounds of the Messrs. Hcjiry and Sol. Weil, there were hundreds of ladies gathered while the outside was packed with an enthusiastic crowd of men. Capt. Swift Galloway had been selected to introduce our next Gover nor, the Hon. Daniel G. Fowle, and he did it well. Judge Fowle was greeted with tre mendous applause. II is heart, said he, would be cold indeed if it did not throb at such a reception. In feeling terms and beautiful language he allud ed to Kastern as the land of his birth and after telling cf his love for the whole State went on to National poli tics. He spoke of Cleveland as the man of destiny and the first Democrat of the land. He pointed cut several instances where the Republican party had made war upon the constitution, one of which was the imposition of excessive taxes. He told the people how they were humbugged by the cry of protection. He was frequently ap plauded and made a firm impre sion. At Mr. John II. Hill's residence Mr. J. Y. Joyner, in a few eloquent re marks introduced Maj. S. 31. Finger. The Superintendent of Public Instruc tions seemed to like the looks of the people present, liked their hats, and the things tied around their hats. He spoke of the pension frauds that slip through congress and are vetoed by the President. He was not much of a . color line man but believes intelligence wou.d and should rule the country. I The next stop was made at the Gra ! ded school, where C. B. AvcocTi Esq., introduced Capt. W, A. Darden, of Greene county. Capt Dardsn's speech was a masterpiece of oratory and elo quence and was interrupted with frc puent applause, Arriving at the G reg ory House, where the dispersion was to take place calls were made for Messrs. 0. B. Aycock, Capt. Swift Galloway, and Col. A. M. Waddell, they all re sponded promptly and their soul in spiring words of Democratic doctrine almost set the crowd wild with enthu siasm. This ended cue of tht most enthu siastic meetings ever held in Golds boro, and too much praise cannot be given to the Y. M. D. C, of this city for the good work and hearty endeav ors in making it a success. The Davis Band and the Goldsboro Band added much to the pleasure of the evening, and the music discoursed was "liard to beat." The city was beautifully illuminated throughout, our guardians of the peace preserved the strictest order all along the line of march. ; Our country- friends were here in full force, young and eld, oa foot and cn horseback. i IT! 11 t-r..- It-inv n.-.-nvtiA 1 cj i-rie, , xij a. w.y and we believe it too.
