RALraaa, If. 0., June 18. -There la a
proposition on foot to appoint a solicit
ing committee here for the purpose, of
raising funds for the Jefferson Davis
monument. It is thought that a snug
sum can be raised for the purpose.
The Oowuor today made the follow
log appointments: W. O. Campbell,
Captain Co. O, 4th ittrlmeot; P. &
Vaugban, 3d Lieutenant Co. E, lit reg
iment; ttobt. 8. Young, Major and Ae

Ajjtnt General Olena left today
to attend the encammnent of the Na

regiment will be ia oamp.
Fewer mortgages are being recorded
In this county than for several years
past. The books of the Begiater of
Deeds also show that a larger number
hare been cancelled. Thia ia aa en
oouragiog sign, the effeeta ot the good
crops last year.
There is much sympathy expressed
here for Mrs. Glewnan, a daughter of
the late Wm. Kenneth Bagner. 8m
has been ia feeble health for soma time
past, and recently cams to Raleigh in
nope or recuperation, winging with
her two little daughters. A few days
stnosoneof theee auddenly aiokaned
and died and bow another ia at the
point of death. Mra. Glewnan la hus
ittid is off on the frontier ia military
service. Of coarse kind friends are at
tending her in a most creditable man
