Borden and children left vesterdav for Winston and Moncure to visit lelatives. Thb White Ilouse is closed to the great American office-seeking army, but there is plenty of room outside. Ma. and Mrs. C. F. Griffin have moved into their handsom9 new home recently constructed, on the corner of Slocumb and Walnut street extension. The "Rose Tea" at Mrs. Sarah Komegav's to-night is going to be an elaborate and certainly enjjyable affair. It is for the rectory fund of Sl Stephen s church aud should therefore b liberally patronized. Dr. J as. Spicer, of At'anta, where he is succeeding admirably in bis profession, as he is thoroughly com petent and so well merits, is on i brief visit to his home in this city, where his many friends are always glad to see him. Tab "Glee Club" of the Pennsyl vania University passed through the city in a special rnnman car yes terday afteitoon on a tour of the South, They were a gentlemanly looking and well conducted set of young men, a credit to their Alma Mater. Two marriaged were recently sol emnized in Grantham's township, this county, Mr. W. II. Burch, J. P., officiating. The contracting parties were J. II, Joyner and Miss Minnie McCullec; Mr. Wm, Vernon and Miss Penny Pries. The Abgus wishes them all joy and prosperity. The new grist mill that Mr. Fred 0. Overman has recently con structed and is now operating at the Northwestern end of our city, near the stand pipe, is one of the manu facturing enterprises that Golds boro has long needed. lie is also grinding a fine quality of cow feed. He mills for toll. It is now in order to get the gang plauk" ready. If we can read between the lines of President Cleve land's recent manifesto, he is him self going to decide between the contesting office-seekers all over the country, that have been flooding the President's atmosphere to suffoca tion, and to this end he has asked them to "scatter1' and give him room to swing his beheading axe. So the gang plank is now in order for the rascals to walk. We publuh in oar lo-jal columns this morning an admirable article from the fluent and poetic pen ot our gifted townsman Mr. J no. li. Mor ris, which appeared in the Charlotte Observer ot the 10th ir stan t. It is meet that such articles be written at this timer It is proper that each principles be nurtured alas and inculcated among the rising gener aiipqi everywhere a this fir South land of onri. As the Observer so well says, the Sauthern people may not cherish the hope of another Gon federacy. but they mutt cherish tht memory of the m.'n who died for the one that was. That p?ople is lost which d'shonors iu traditions, by forgetfolness oT otherwise, and PhejB js nq hope for men or 'women wji sue indifferent f the deeds of ancestors, which deeds are by right bart of the'eommon glon of the i THE STAB OF TEE CENTURY T1UBIJTK TO THE OONFEDE RACY Oatlia or QovramataJ VlcUaltad li the NlacUaath Catury-Tk Star, Sa psrnallr BaaiUTal. that lukli Blooa Scorning Conttltatleaal Baaa Th BiUUi oT La and tka Martjrdaai r DavU Lava or tha Daad. Correspondence of the Chvlotte Observer In less than eight. years the nine teenth century will have receded into the milleniums of the past The chronologies of the oentury now so hoary are vital with re vol ox tions and periods of perturbation in human governments. In France barring the throwntng and deposing of Bourbon, or Or loanist, two separate Napoleonic dynasties perished when each of two Napoleons was bereft of throne, crowL and sceptre; while the subse- queney a republio lingers un steadily and unassnringly. Greece, renouncing the authority of the Sultan of the palace oyerhanging the tides of the Golden Horn, has broken from the dominion of the Turk, and the restoration of sover eign state is marked before the ruins of the Parthenon and above the sepulchers of perished art, Spain, twisting from the throes of revolution to confront with anguish the menace of anarchy, has alter nated from confusions of republio to traesties cf feeble, though regal rule. Hope of the restoration of the ancient independence of Hungary no longer thrills the breast of the exile; and the Hungarian arm, with ered and helpless, remains shackled to the robust limb of the Austrian giant. Mexico, tossed by npheavali of insurrection through mockeries of government stretching behind the throne of Maximilliad, now adven tures a new republic, below the Rio Grande; while, northward, expand ing plains and fertile valleys, do main of her ancient realm, are the conquests of the greater North American Republic. Sardinia sent forth a regnant prince, who, with soldiery entering and occupying the Eternal City, reared a secular power against the sacred walls of ot Peter s; workiug civic miracles be fore the porticoes of the Vatigan, despite the scorn and protest of pope, cardinal, priest and monk. The absorption of GermanStates into the federation of empire is djsting uished by the imperial triumph of William, the elder, whose reins transmitted, through princely son, the blood cf Germanic kings to the reigning scion, William the younger. Yet in the chronologies of role and rulership, during the Nineteenth Uentnry, there is an epoch more startling than any eyent of vicissi tude untold or outlined : At a point, one decade this side the midway line of the oentnry, there rose, supernally beautiful and transcendently glorious, the whitest star of empire the star of Confed eracy. Above the birth ot govern ment, whose Mesaiabahip was inde pendency and liberty, this star shone wuh a beauty so ineffable that the wise usn of all nations, with sense of itniration and emotion of solici tude, marked the course of its des tiny. But the orb so peerlessly aflusb, sinking through mists of ashes, from above scene of desola tion, passed from the firmament of a dissolving nation and swept into a sea of blood. When I contemplate the Southern Confederacy; the concert Qf its sev eral Commonwealths in the scheme and fruition of confederation, the utilisation of muniments, the pro vision of munitions; the chivalries of its courage; the achievement of vie toriea,thi renewed confidence follow ing defeats; its solemn dissolution aad pious submission, I scorn all arguments based on constitutional reasons to prove, or disprove, the au thority of its existence among the nations of the earth. None need question the right tq do, or to leave undone, since the spoil to history is so inestimable as the. revelation of Rjbert Lee lUDerblv the forefront of carnage and the examp'e of mariyruocn to me pilgrimage oi iei ferson Davis from the dignity and authority of .magistracy to the ser vitude of chain and the sohtnde of dangeou, Agaioi I know enough when 1 am, rerqiaded tlet the. cjase of (ha Confederacy was the cause of North aa m 1 f SB Uarouoa (rom wnere girqies oi sag ron sands bind against her sea to the symbols o! her lofty glory be fore sanctuaries of descendlogstars Men who died for North Caro lina were sacrificed for me, and I am conscious of infi Jelity, deep and sinful, If I revere not the memory of one who brousrhr tbe priceless t'ling a life to tte altar of NtT'.h Carolina. But, if I love the memory of those whose oblation was lite for North Carolina, and, hencoy for me, I have sentiment in my nesri akiu to the world's holiest religion, and I am trenching on the border land of scenes sweeping around Cross and Crocifision, f At this hour, with my heart swelling with inch sensibilities, what bare I to do with the inter pretation of constitution, the aoal ysis of logicians, and the dispata tions ot statesmen! y Tc-lay, o. mmeuiorativo services abave tbe bones and ashes of pur Southern dead will singularly em phasize, by tokens, graceful and tender,our reverence and love, The rite a sacrifice of swoet flowers is not one of asperity toward foes, but of tenderness to the memory of friend-.

Nearly eight years agr, October 27, 1885 Mr. Cleveland issued a similar statemont, in which ho not only saia tuat he would decline to see l.i. a a i those seeking public positions, but their advocates as well. Joel T. Jlive, of Lexington, Ga. as been appointed Special Land Inspector, to succeed Caleb F Davis, rosifirnod. Secretary Hoke Smith has do cided that nnder the act of Con gre68 appropriating $20,000 for the removal of the Cherokee Indians in IN or th Uaroliua and ulsowliore to tho Cherokee- nation, no allowance can oo made exeopl upon certili cate fr m proper authorities of the Nation, tuat the removal lias ae tually taken place aud the Indiana admitted to citizenship. I he President has appointed James H, Blount, of Georgia, Envoy Extraordinary a:'.d Minister Plenipotentiary to the Hawaiian Iilands, succeeding John L. Stevens, resigned, Mi. Blount's c. mmiflsion bears date ofyestord iy and it w.ll be sent him by tho next mail for Ilono'ulu. I ho tact that Mr. Blount would bo transterred rom tho p.st of special com missionor to make report on the advisability of annexing the Hawaiian Islands to tho United Slates, to tho position ot Minis ter was announced in these dispatches last night, and since tho announcement was made it has como to be understood that the change was decided on at the Cabinet meeting yesterday. The report from Mr, B OJnt, mailed in Honolulu during tho last week in April, came to Secretary Gres ham yesterday morning, and was tiken by him to the Cabinet meet ing. Uwing to the confidential character of the report, its contents are kept eecret, but it is presumed that it contained such information that the President determined to oee no timo in commissioning a new Minuter to succeed Mr, Stevons. The stlary of the posit Ln is $7,500. General Schotield to-day re ceived a telegram from McCook, commanding the department of Arizona, repeating a dispatch from Col HuDt,in charge of the troops in tbe field, stating that the situa tion iu the Navajoes country is ap parently quite. Two troops of his command arrived at fruitund, Arizona, on the Sod inst,, and the remainder a few days later. The murderer of Welsh, tbe ranchman, had been arrested and lodged in jail at Az'ec. Tbe Indian agent antic pates no trouble iu arresting others connected with the murder, as B'ack Hone has e:: pressed will ingness and desire to aid in their capture. Col. Hunt expects to move towards the camp ot Black Horse "a m i a in a day or two, Uen. McUook states be has instructed Hunt to exercise bis judgment regarding the troubles, and to determine what troops he shall leave at Fruitland Tbe dispatches received make no reference to tbe reported killing of Lieut. PI u miner by tbe Navajoes, and this fact satisfies tbe Depart ment that the. report is entirely itboqt foundation.
