' The Transcript-Messenger desires a weekly! letter from every county in which it circulates.and invites all its old correspondents in these localities to re sume their letters to the paper. We especially desire articles on farming arrd manufacturing topics. It is the purpose to make the paper of partiular interest to those engaged in these industries. And we would also ask those engaged in the development of our fishing and aystering interests on the coast, to con ribute articles bearing upon the prog ress of our fisning enterprises, and giv ing such suggestions J as experience and observation indicate as necessary o the promotion of th ese great inter ests. . ; r .

Such enterprise merits the highest and most substantial appre ciation of business men and the mass of aewspaper.readers, and the Argus, for this effort to promote the material in terests of the county of Wayne and the town of Goldsboro, should receive large additions to its subscription list, and a rharked increase of its advertising pat ronage.

Korb. v The election is ordered for the second Monday in June," and the campaign promises to be an earnest and hard fought one on both sides. In advance of the opening of the contest, we dep recate all bitterness of speech, assault . upon character and personal abuse. We had hoped that the matter would not. come up to distract our people at this . time, for many and obvious reasons, but inasmuch as it comes through the forms and requirements of the aw, and properly constituted authority, it is a malter of the highest dignity, and the " public duty is to approach it with a solemn sense of solicitous regard for the pnblic welfare and the promotion of the well being of the community, and the peace and concord of our neighborhood. For a utaoaDKEED Lrvxs try Bsscn 4310 FOiLa Department The Death or Mr. Tylek Smith. Mr. Tyler Smith, of Pikeville town ship, this county, died on Saturlay last at 8 o'clock a. m. Mr. Smith had been down with pneumonia about ten days, brought on by the exposure of himself during the very inclement weather pre vailing at that time, in going from house to house, sitting up with and nursing the sick of his neighborhood, thus show ing that he had "a heart to feel for others' woes." Mr. Smifh was a brother of the late Hon. W. A. Smith, of Johnston, and Mr. B. V. Smith, of this county, and was about 44 years of age. He leaves a wife, five children and a large circle of relatives to "mourn his loss, to all of whom we extend the sympathies of the Transcript-Messenger. "Greater love hath no man than this, that he lay down his life for another." Volng Men's Christian Association. A very large audience of young"1 men. middle-aged men, old men and boys were present Sunday afternoon at the Young Men's Christian Association hall in the Weil building. , The subject under consideration was; "Confessing Christ;" Mr. Charles Dewey leader. He opened.the meeting by reading an appropriate Psalm, and then special prayeii were made for the gift of the Holy Ghost, led by Messrs. Thos. W. Dewey, John L. BdTrden, D.JL. Jackson, H.Y.Moore and T. B. Hyman. the meeting was then thrown open, giving all an opportunity of making an open verbal confession of Christ and many did so, and then all who had not thus confessed Him and desired to do so, were requested to rise, when all but three iri the audience arose. The sing ing was excellent, the spirituality good, and all felt that it was good tobejthere. Blizzard Weather. ' .

Our farmers generally are now plant iner highland corn.and making all dcd arations forlhe sowing of cotton, which will soon commence. A greardeal of wheat and other smaH grain has been sowed and these crops are looking well. Under favorable seasons we look for fine crops. We had the pleasure of attending di vine l. v:cr: Ti..:.. rh ennv n,Vht ,nH Church Sunday night, and heard the pastor, Rev. J. S.

I The subject of Rev. JC. McMullen's sermon at our city Presbyterian Church last Sunday morning was, Christ's question to Peter, John, 21st chanter 17th verse: "Lovest thou- me? The sermon was fine and forcible in keep ing with all the sermons preached by this learned , divine. It was regular communion service many partook of. ne iioiy tucnanst, and taken alto frether, it was a most enjoyable occa sion. Mr. CT. Willis, a travelling com mercial agent of this city, is at home with his family this week. We know of co religious institution thatis doing more good in this city at this time than the Sunday school in ,Webbtown, over which Mr. John W. Bryan is Superintendent, This school has been running a little over one year and from very small beginnings, has grown to be nourishing, with eight teachers and seventy-five or eighty en rolled pupils, with an average atten dance of about sixty. Many attend this school that will not go to any other. Notwithstanding the congregation was quite small, comparatively speak ing, last Sunday at St. Paul M. E. Church, the Rev. Dr. Robey preached oe of his finest sermon from Matthew XVI chapter, 26th verse: "For what is a man profited if he shall ga?n the who'e world and lose his own soul: '.or; what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?" The congregation was not com fortable on account of the coolness of the weather, but paid as good attention to the sermon as circumstance: would permit, and all seemed ediSed.
