HONOR MORE PRECIOUS THAN GOLD. 1-liQ following letter taken from ' the Wilson News of a recent date, is Appropriate to the times and being "in accord with our sentiments we jpublish it below : Editor Wilson News: That is a uggestive paragraph" of yours that 'Vas been going"the: rounds, pointing ''out a difference between the North erner, Admiral Dewey, and the southerners',' Generals Hampton and "Gordon." The latter refuse to per 'iiiit their admirers to erect for them dwellings in place of those dis 'troyed by fire, while the former gives 'kirectibus'tp the committee in charge of the "Dewey Home Fund" to get "everything ready so that he will need 'only 4to Valk in and order dinner." If the history of the Sou thern peo ple were written it would no doubt Record "many instances, besides that "bt Gebrge Washington of devotion to duty aud to principle without reward ''or the hope of reward, or the uccep "tance of reward' when tendered. 'Nathaniel Macon served as a private soldier three-years of the Revolution ary war, refusing to accept pay or prombtionl (See Lives of Distin- f' rushed North Carolinians p. 83). tichard Caswell held the oSice of "governor of North Carolina "during the stormy and perilous period of 1775, 1777 and 1778", and refused "any compensation for his services." "See Wheeler, 1,'90) And tho dar iog band of North Carolina heroes 'who assisted in defeating Fergerson's forces at King's Mountain, turning Iho tide of war, and making York Tjt6wn possible, did it "without pay, Rations, or 'ipiiniunition, or reward, r the hope of' re ward." (Wheeler, 1, 98). Kl 1 ' ' We are all familiar with "Warren's Address to the American Army" a p9dy' of Massachusetts militia com 'riiauued by Col. Prescott, with the 'Rattle 'of Bunker Hill (which was fought on Breed's Hill), with the. story of the "Mohawk Indians" who 1d)mped' the East India Company's 'tea' into the sea, with Go.

W. Haywood, Bedford Brown and Robert Strange, to resign their commissions, we are iot so familiar." The North ha3 supplied us with school books, magazines, novels, newspapers, &c. ; with few exceptions the heroes wlioni we have been in irited to emulate were Northerners ; i'he exploits, real or fictitious, which tirred our youthful hearts as Paul tevere's Ride usually camo to us from, the - Ncrtli ; ' and ' today our ydting rheii are turning their faces from the "old South" Wherein honor was more precious than gold, and ire exalting a "new South" wherein thrift promises to bo one of tho chief divinities.
