As eternal vigilance is the price of liberty, o i3 continued vigilance, honest, fair and upright dealing necessary to success in bus iness. Having from the outset (18 years -W), appreciated these facts, and acted up 'jn them, we find ourselves foniay rewarded 'or the countless anxieties, vexations, and iiie loss of hours of rest by seeing our long :herished hopes realized, of making Char ottea Wholesale Mart, and ours an exclusive Wholesale House. In order to be more explicit, we have the pleasure of informing the mercantile world that we have leased the superb store, ad joining oar present, (heretofore occupied by Messrs. Brem, Brown & Co., as their Dry Ooods Store), which we will Occupy by first ol September next for the retail trade only, md will use our present elegant and com modious store for an exchxrive WHOLESALE HOUSE ll,s Riving to the trade a strictly "Whole )lc Establishment," where they can make heir selections from a Stock purchased for at trade only, thus avoiding coming in contact with a Retail Stock and Retail Buy era- The advantages of such a House are oo obvious to need further comment. " ' fo give the general reader a better con ception of the colossal dimensions of our wo Houses we state that we will have, up wards of thirty thousand feet of superficial iioorroora; or if a lane often feet wide were formed of our stores, it would reach considerably over half a mile. At the same time we inform our numer ous friends that our Mr. Rintels is now Win North buying our second stock this ason, and owing to the decline in goods, win again place us in a position to success miy compete with all xther houses.

The reg ular annual examination of the classes in this Institute commenced, as our readers are aware, on last Monday. On that day the Department of Belles Lettres was thorough ly exercised. The Superintendent, Colo nel Thomas, being in charge of the same. On Tuesday the Department of Mathematics, in charge of Prof. Dudley and Asst. Prof. Thomas, was examined. On Wednesday the Department of Physics, Prof. Dudley in charge, was thoroughly examined, and the examination of classes in Ancient Languages, commenced by Prof. Griffith, to be continued to-day. The Com mercial Dep't, Prof. Lynes in charge, was examined ytsterday evening. The exami nation of classes in Modern Languages will commence at 9 o'clock this morning. Prof. Lynes is in charge of this Dep't. These ex ercises have been and are open to the public. We call attention to the fact that the read ing of Essays and Declamation by the ad vanced classes will take place this evening at 8 o'clock. The subjects are as follows: The Genius of Shakespeare. "The Play of Hamlet" "The Progress of Civil ization: The Play of "Much Adoo About Noth ing" History. ., .. . The known reputation of the Superintendent' not only as an instructor, but as a Rhetorician, is sufficient guarantee as to the ability and excel lence with which the subjects selected will be handled. We hope that the closing exercises of this valuable institution will be largely attended both to-night and to-morrow. The Tobacco leaft The next issue of the Tobacco Leaf, J. R.'

M. ¬ Davidson College Commencement The day for the exercises at Davidson College was selected with regard to -the weather, the hottest being the one preferred. But for a sweet, swift breeze that gladdened the hearts and cooled the faces of the many on the cars bound for the College, the heat would have been well nigh insufferable. With social chat, pleasant jest and amiable compliment the hour or two on the road passed, and shortly before 10 o'clock we found ourselves on the classic ground of Da vidson College. The principal attraction of the day (always and respectfully excepting the pretty girls, who seemed far prettier than every was the address before the liter ary societies by Rev Dr. Hoge, . of Rich mond,' Va.. His subject was some of the missing Jinks in a modern 'education' In this age of steam and telegraphy, it seems almostf a necessity to hasten the process or shorten the term of education, to open some new and roytl road of learning by which the distance to the temple of fame might be annihilated. But in defining the word cul ture he demonstrated that time was an essen tial element in perfecting a thorough' man of culture. A full and thorough classical and mathematical education will enable a man to do any work better to which he may be called, eyen manual labor;- The culture of the aesthetic part of a man's na ture is often one of the defective links in a man's education. But the greatest and most deplorable defect is a spirit of materi alism which has found its place in the pul pit as well as the lecture room the giving no place to the culture of the supernatural. The orator s argument at thi3 point of his address was close and logical, and was lis tened to with the most rigid aud breathless attention. lie proved the fallacy of the ma terialistic ideas of several of the most distin guished scientists of the day, showing that the laws of nature, to a certain extent, are nndei the control of man, and, if so, how much more under the control of God, in whose hand are all the chains of causation. while to man only a few links are visible. It is impossible, in a short notice, to do jus tice to an address which was, in argument, terse and logical, in illustration apt and for cible, and in style and manner lighted with those inimitable touches that genius, united with culture, alone can give. But it fully sustained the character of the distinguished divine. The exercises were opened and clos ed with strains of music from the Salisbury Band. At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the annual ad dress before the Alumni Association of the insti tution, was delivered by Dr J G Ramsay, of Rowan. At the beginning of the exercises, the Band played, after which prayer was offered by Rev F H Johnston, of Lexington. Then Prof P P "Winn, introduced Dr Ramsay, who address ed the assembled crowd. He spoke for about three quarters of an hour, and delivered a lec ture of considerable power. His theme was the necessity for popular education, and he argued to show that no nation can become great and prosperous when the citizens are ignorant He urged the people ot the South to arouse from their lethargy shake off their Inactivity and en dure what they could not cure. Dr Ramsay was a graduate in the class of '41. He spoke quite feelingly of the departed mem bers of that class, and the changes, many and great, which had taken place since he stood a graduate upon that platform. Space forbids us saying more of this speech. The Excursionists. The Committee of Ar rangements from the Chamber of Commerce will meet the excursionists from Charlotte, who are to arrive on a special train, this afternoon, at 5 o'clock, at a point ten miles from the city, and will conduct them to the freight depot of the Wilmington, Columbia & Augusta Railroad, op posite the city, where they will be met by Mr. Chas. H. Robinson, Vice President of the Cham ber and a delegation of the merchants. They will be conducted to the quarters provided for them at the hotels,where,lt 13 needless to say, they will be "looked after." Wednesday is the '-agla day," and arrange ments have been made for conveying them to the Sound, where they will have a good taste of -salt water and something else. If they don't swear by Wilmington when they go back home it will not be the fault of our merchants, Wilmington Journal. communicated. Ch erry Mountain Crops Politics Air line Railroad. Messrs. Editoes Time, like a ' star un- hasting yet unresting," has passed on, and two weeks have elapsed since I wrote about ,' Nondescripts alias Independents." I join ed last week a pleasant party of twenty young gents add ladies fair on an excursion to Cherry Mountain, distant 20 miles fro n Shelby. Our party had a nice time with "youth on the prow and pleasure at the helm." The mountain scenery is sublime, especially at sunset, when the day god gath ers around the distant peaks his golden, saf fron and purple hues to make gorgeous his departure. The mountain has left its impress upon its inhabitants, some of whom, living in rustic simplicity have imbibed its rough ness. Eizhtv vears aso a man named Melton' brought from Virginia and planted a dozen cherry trees on this mountain. Since then the birds and man have scattered the seeds for miles. Now this mountain is famous for its gigantic and prolific cherry trees, num bering about 500, which produce luscious black and red cherries ; these trees rival in size and height the huge oaks of theforests. Mr. Melton dead, but his trees still live, and will publish to future generations this small but noble act of a poor countryman' for the benefit of posterity. Here is a lesson from which many might profit. i ! Cherry Mountain has been for 20 years the Mecca to which hundreds of young and old in Rutherford and Cleveland (not Cleave land) make a yearly": pilgrimage to gather cherries better than the golden apples in the gardens' of the Hesperides. The Cbops. Since the recent trains corn and cotton have been in a flourishing con? dition. The farmers have :tised ; this .year four times the Quantity of guano over last year, while the ,-acreage in cotton is two fold. Hence1, large crops are anticipated in Cleveland county. - Wheat' has? been, har vested ; the crop is yery good. " 'Tis . pity, 'tis true,' and tis true 'tis pity" that the far mers ship no hay or clover to market ; more attention should bef .paid to the gras ses. Politics. The dissatisfaction against Mr. Schenck, the nominee foir Judge, is getting "small and beautifully less." The "waters of discontent" have flowjd over a portion of this county, but are now rapidly subsid ing, and will leave some of the "Indepen dents," who wish to serve their county, "high and dry" in August. Air-Line Railway- Dickens, in "Dom bey & Son," says, "Great Britain is a land upon which the sun never sets and the tax coliecjpr never goes to sleep." The Air-Line Railway Company thinks that the ubiquitous tax-collector of York county, S. C. neyergoes toIeep, for the two have, been playing ;'bide,Hud seek" for three weeks at Whitaker's and Black's. The tax-collectors have tried' day after day to levy upon the train, but the train eludes the collection of $1,400 tax by passing Whit aker's and Black's at full speed. Thecellec tor was about to seize the train one day, but the sharp engineer "backed" the engine, and then passed Black's at full speed, leav ing the collector alone in his disappoint ment. It is thought the tax question will soon be settled by the parties. More anon. Tic Toodx.es. June 22, 1874. COMMUNICATED. Daily Observes: In your valuable paper a few days since, I read with some interest, the communication signed "L," on the all Impor tant subject of City Taxes and expenditures. The writer "L" mentioned some Items of increas ed expense, but omitted one of some magnitude, which I will mention. Our City Fathers seem to want money, judging from the published tax list. Then, why elect two cotton weighers, at a salary of eight hundred dollars each. Why not have saved that eight hundred dollars and not have put that amount of taxes on a hundred house keepers, who have taken a boarder or two to help support themselves and their children. Two cotton weighers cannot be put on the plea of necessity, for I am informed that the assistant cotton weigher last winter was paid fey a cotton committee, composed of farmers and cotton buyers, and did not cost the city a dollar. The arrangement seemed to work well, and gave more general satisfaction than any previous year excepting two or three days of a great rush of cotton, and then, more for the want of platform room than anything else. It was an old maxim ; "to let well enough alone," Jkc. Housekeeper. COMMUNICATED. Schenck and Montgomery at Rutherford ton. Butbebfordton, June 22nd, 1874. Editor Observes: Our candidate for the Judgeship made one of his most happy efforts here to-jlay, before a large and intelligent audi ence. ' It would hardly be too much to say that he de molished all opposition so far as the people who heard him are concerned. We have never seen a more complete triumph. Sir. Schenck spoke for two hours. He vindi cated his character from all the charges that have been made against him, on the Ku-Klux ques tion, to the satisfaction, of nearly every man present Many who went into the meeting opposed to him, come out for him, and mauy who went in for him cold and indifferent and merely because he was the party nominee, came out most en thusiastic supporters and thoroughly convinced that the best possible selection had been made by the convention. . 1 Old Rutherford will redeem the pledge of her convention of the 13th of May, to support the nominee, if anything can be judged by the feel ings and expressions of those who heard Mr. Schenck to-day. Mr. Montgomery also acquitted himself well, and made many friends and supporters. The Conservative party of Rutherford is al most a unit on the nominees. If all the coun ties in the district will do as well as this, Schenck will be your Judge and Montgomery your Solic itor. Yours truly, G M W. The Atlanta Dally Constitution in its issue of June23nd, pays Col Tom Long, the following well deserved compliment : Col T B Long, of North Carolina, the Travel ing Agent of the U S Post-office Department, reached the city last evening. His effective ad ministration ot the duties pertaining to his office, has elicited the universal applause of the press without respect to party, and we are to be con gratulated that so many impositions upoa the 'postal regulation, have ceased under his supervision.
