The Gazette, of York, Pa , which is the leading Democratic daily of that section, in i s issue of the 3d instant, says: "Miss Maud E. Young, daughter of Hon. James II. Young, of Raleigh.

To the vic tors belorgthe Fpenls, Civil Service rules or no Civil Service rules. I?t the fur fly. No Democrat in North Carolsna need ex pect to be shielded by such rules, but on the contrary gentlemen, you must walk the plank, therefore prepare to meet your doom. The sixth annual report of Rv. A. B. Hunter, the eflicienc Principal of St. Augustine School, published in the Rec ord of said school is before us, and it phows th at great work is being accom plished for the colored people by that school. There were 323 pupils enrolled in the various departments last year, which speaks well for the able manage ment of the school. Send to the Princi pal and gf t a copy of the Record and read it for yourself. The practice of throwing rocks at ex cursion trains and snatching the hats of excursionists as the train moves t ff is becoming too frequert in North Carolina and, as speaking for Raleigh, we can say that we believe an end is about to be put to it here. The treatment given the Lex ington excursionists last week is severely denounced here by the good people of this city of both races, and several voung men have been arrested and bound over to Court as participants in the affair. If people will not behave the strong arm of the law must be invoked to make them behave. M-iyor Russ is after the offend ers anel is determined to break up such conduct and all good citizens shemld pup port him heaitily in this good work. The Mayor of G ildsborocan find a little some thing to do along this line, as the excur sion passing there last Friday morning was rocked badly. Let the parties guilty of such conduct be given the full extent of the law.

He in attending the Wake Baptist Asso ciation this week, and will le tve for Ashe ville, N. C, on Sunday the 15th inst. Hon. W. T. Prinner. of South Port, came up with the excursionists ls". Mon day. Mr. Printer is an applicant lor the position of Inspector of Customs at that port when the new Collector isappointed. We would like to see Mr. Prinner given the position. He is a staunch Repub lican. T. e Democratic newspapers are the most zealous and enthusiastic advocates of lynch law in North Carolina. While condemning, as they should, the rapist, they ought also to condemn the lynchers, and btind for law and order in both in stances. The write ups of these horrible crimes that these newspapers spread be fore their readers is an ei.courugement to mob law. The ftews and Observer anA the Wilmington Messenger stand in the forefront in this despieaole business. All lovers of law and order, and loyal citi zens, will condemn in equal terms both tt e rapist and the lyncher. Let there be created a healthy public sentiment against b.nh of these violators of the law. Col. Thomas H. Knight arrived in the city last Monday about eleven o'clock with abouc one thousand excursionists from the "City by the Sea," and as usual they were a good looking, orderly set of people. They spent the dny in visiting the State Museum, Capitol, Pen itentiary and other places of interest about the City of O ks. Our people here were, as they always are, glad to wel come the visitors, lhey all spent a pleasant time and left for their home about eleven o'clock that night. By way of parenthesis we will say, and with re gret, that in the base-ball game between Wilmington and R.leigh that Rtleigh was not in it even a little bit as te siore was 8 to 2 in favor of the visitir g team.
