U. rArmfle!d Jtudjj;e Norwood was unani- luoiwly elected chairman, and R. UMcLanghlin $nd J. A Haitness secretaries. On ta kinjr the .chair Judge Nor wood said he aid not know Maj. Bingham personally, a . a a a .. out it gave him pleasure to do honor to his memory. It was moved hiy Mr. B. F. Long that Mr. C. H. Armfield reatl the resolutions which had been prepared for the occa e . m a a sion. Mr. Armneia real as follows; Resolved, That in the death of Major Harvey Bingham the State of North Carolina ha Inst an able, patriotic and uwful citizen, who h a served her with credit to him self and profit to the State as Senator and member of the state constitutional con vention, and who, had he not been cut off in the meridian of his manhood, would doubt 1h38 have rendered still great er service to his Staf,o and people. Resolved, 2d. That the le- gal profession has lost in him a profound common law law yer, a man of ever growing strength and usefulness, and one whose genial, happy tern (terment and goodness o heart made his piesence a blessing to his brethren and the people wherever he went Resolved, 3d. That we ten net to ins oereuveu Wile and family our sincere sympathy and condolence in this their irreparable loan, and that we request his Honor, the Judge presiding, to cause these res olutions to be unread noon the minutes of the court, nnr! that an engrossed copy be sent to Mrs. Bingham ant tnetamiiyoy tue clerk anc .a m a a .a that the city newspapers be requested to publish t h same. After reading the resolu tions Judge Arm Held arose and spoke as follows: lhave prepaied no eulogy on the life of my dead friend and brother Maj. Bingham. On occasions like this, I am al weys reminded of the words of the poet who said: Gnu stoned urn or animate bust, Back to its mansion call the fleeting breath. Can honor' voice provoke t h silent dust. Or flattery soothe the dull, cold ... ear of deatu.' These meetings are held for the emulation of theexample of the deceased to the living, Maj. Bingham was mixed country boy Hehad a strong intellect he communed with nature the song of birds and aa a a a . a e round dooks in tne running brooks. The country boy has the advantage in this over the town lad. You alway find them in the front of pd it ics in business and at the bar. Maj. Bingham bad kind and generous heart he thought no evil of any one and was a blessing to those who knew him, wherever he went. He was an able law yer and drank at the deep fountains of t bo common law. Maiorlt'iiltlwell said it was " Jyi . a, . a accorded to, mm tne high privilege to know the -true worth of Alajl, Bingham, be ing hii; partner. He was a nr lawyfcf ftbd the super- trnctureqf thieir suits was aid by him, , He had the im- ilicit confidence of jurors which gave him stfxess and ower in the courts. He was a christian and the first thing he wanted to know about anything, jwa.8 it right. A bet ter man a truer man never ived. He despised hypocra cy. rnesstateand oar nave sustained in him a great loss. ew men equaled him and none was superioi to him. B. F. Long, Esq., said the sentiments and high tribute mid to Maj Bingham by Judge Armfield ought to be preserved, and be endorsed all that wassuid. Maj. Bing ham could not boast of. blood or bullion and did not live high hut he left behind him a treasure in a name, to be ad orned by us all. He was a common law lawyer. Black- stone and Coke were his fa vorite comp'aniona. He had he respect of every body even in the hottest political con tests. In our short sighted- riess we muy deplore his sud den taking of! in the midst of ntlueiiceand power but tvi must submit to the works of providence. Judge Norwood then said in his experience in these meetings of the bar he had alwavs noticed the frank ness with which brethren spoke of their dead brothers. that if they had faults .tbev were told, but iuthiainstonce he bad heard none, the sup position was Maj. Bingham had none. Mr. C. H. Ann field then moved , the "adop tion of the resolutions which was done unanimously , ami Judge Norwood ordered them enrolled on the dockets of the court. What Sam Joneitald. Sam Jones preached at Em jry Grovr. Md.. camp meeting recent lv. He said he ha j been born a democrat and raised a democrat remained a democrat as lug as he thought achristian gentleman could, then he pulled out. At this sally a laugh went up supposed ly trom a number of republicans oresent. Mr. Jones turaed bib attention to them and said: 'You republicans need not l iugh. thank uou 1 never got low en ough down to run with your gang, ine republican parry clttinuMo be the party ot great moral ideas. It s a great big lie, lou ran this Government in al its branches for tnirty years on a dead stretch, and when you turned it over to the democrats ten yean ago it was soaked in whiskey from Maine to Califor nia, and the Government w is in co-partnership with the whole damnable business." The Press and Carolinian says: "Senator Marion But ler is reported to have sain in his uary speech: "if you had been put iu the Garden otEden where Christ w a born, antl earned u dollar above expenses every day, you wouldn't be worth a million dollar." All which shows that Marion Butler, together with Cy Thompson, is better fitted for Populist oratory than for Sunday school work." The South Sees Ferward. . . . j Vice-President St. John of the Seaboard system, who hus been in New York, was iu terviewed by the New York Jonrnpl reporter, and be talk ed encouragingly and truth fully about the progress of Southern enterprise. From his long experience in imigra tion matters Mr. St. John think that it is ridiculous for settlers-to prefer such States of Kansas when they have their choiw of lands in Virginia, tne Carolinas and Geoigia. The capitalists and insiness men of New York in ve been among the first, he mi ,vp, to reorganize tnesplen did opportunities!!! the south and they are confident that he future field of industrial activity will be in this region. To be convinced of this fact a stranger has only to visit the Sou th aj.d in vest iga te the situation. Hundreds of oth er occupations are profitable here besides the' cultivation d cotton and cereals. The ort lines of the future will be made in the development of Southern mineral and manu actnring resources. We have otton at our doors ready for the spinner, iron find oth r ores ready for the smelter, and tobacco rops ripening for the manufacturers. The a . 'fforts already made show t hat can be done. Last year a great North Carolina man ufacturing concern spent one hundred thousand dollars in advertising, and the results were so sitisfactory that has increased its advertising fund for this year to two bun dred and fifty thousand dol tars. News and Observer. - A Untune ColoaeV The following good story- is told in connection with the Forty-eighth Ga. Regiment: As the regiment was on the march to Gettysburg, some of the soldiers stepped out of the ranks and confiscnttd a couple of geese, and one ol the drummers unbended his drum and put the captured birds in it. Shortly afterwards the co lonel came nlong, and notic ing the drummer fail d to do his usual drum whacks, rode up und said: "Why dontyou beat that drum ?" "Colonel," said the start led man, "I want to speak to you." The colonel drew close to him and said: "Well, what have you to say?" The drummsr whispered: "Colonel, I've a couple of geese in here." The colonel straightened up and said: ' Well, if you are sick you needn't pluy," and rode on. That uight the colonel had roast goose for supper. Con stitution. "It is an infamous slander to say thttrjechurch8tands on the side of human slavery The man or party that would slander or debase the Chris tian church for political pur poses deserves the contempt of every decent, ? law-abiding Citizen," says the Charlotte News. Oafeafafiwriarer, Miss Flager, who moves in the wealthiest Washington society, shot a colored ,boy who stole pears rom her fa her's orchard. The coroner ury rendered a verdict of ac quittal. The question has been raised Would the jury have brought a similar ver dict, had tha boy been a sou of Gen. Flager and the wo man the colored mother of the little boy Green ? Others call attention to the verdict of murder brought against Marie Barber ie, and draw a comparison between the ot- fense of Ma He's betrayer and that of the Green boy. It is a cause of congratula tion that the district court will not let the matter pass a"d will bring MissFIager be fore the grand jury at t h e next sitting. It is als'i a hap by circumstance that Gen. Flager is judicious and pub lic-spitited enough to decline to accept the verdict of the coroner's jury and give bonds for hisdaughter's appearance before the higher tribunal. Had the case gone no further the announcement would have gone out to every ham let and to ev?ry slums dis trict In the country, that the law was for the punishment only of the poor, and ft,r the protection of thejrich against the consequences of t h e i i crimes. What the grand jury wit find, no one Knows of course. It is maintained by Miss Fla ger's friends, first, that she is near sighted, and did not see the boy, and second, that she fired simply to frighten the boys from the orchnrt and with no idea of hitting any one. In any case there is a lesson to boys to leave a lone the property of others and to adults to refrain from the permiseuous use of fire a Tins. Housekeeper. While in Chicago, Mr. Cbns L.
