tW The business of the superinten
dent, secretary and treasury of the At
lantic, Tennessee. & Ohio Railroad,
since the change of depots, is in a box
car, which stands on the track, and still
Uormley smiles childlike and bland.
tW Somebody dropped an envelope
containing some stamps into the letter
box at the postoffice, evidently through
mistake. If the person will call at the
postoffice and prove his ownership the
envelope and its contents will be re
turned to him.
ZW A little daughter of Mr. John
Black, of Crab Orchard, had the mis
fortune to break one of her arms this
week. She attempted to spring from a
mounting block upon the back of a
colt and fell to the ground on the other
side, sustaining the injury mentioned.
tg The colored Methodists in Crab
Orchard township have been holding
protracted religious meeting for sev
eral weeks past. Tuesday evening
Ais m Blair, a colored exhorter, led in
prayer and dropped dead as he rose
from his knee3. His death is attribu

The BlcSrulth ITIuvic House.
The Concord Sun thus speaks of this
house: "If there is any citizen Char
lotte should feel proud of, it is Mc
Smith, the music house genius. The
success that has attended him is won
derful, but he deserves it all, and will
get yet greater. Qa entering his house,
a large well lighted building, one is.
struck with the immense array of or
gans and pianos, drums, fiddles and one
thing and another which he has stack
ed about. This musical house is the
largest south of Baltimore and it is
really nonsense for any one to send
North for anything in the music line
when McSmith is amone us. This is
not a puff we are not able to puff Mc
Smith but is just a little light thrown
on one of the best institutions in.the
South and for a benefit to our readers."
LUTHER BEXSON,
Tle Author of "Fifteen Tears in
Hell," to SpeaUc Here.
The philanthropic gentlemen in this
city and throughout the State who
nave taken upon themselves the man
agement of the prohibition campaign
have been carrying on in a quiet unos
tentatious manner a great deal of good
work in procuring the best talent to ad
vocate this momentous cause before
the people. Next week the citizens are
r tl gJyen an opportunity to hear
.Luther Benson, the noted and brilliant
victim of intemperance, upon the evils
of the liquor curse. It may not be the
most ennobling of motives that lead
men to take an unusual interest in a
subject when it involves an exhibition
of the suffering and writings of a living
example in the clutches of the torment
or, but it must be the most effectual
means of awakening them to the reali
ty of its horrors, if not enlisting them
in the work of its removal from the
path of their fellows. Mr. Benson is
the author of a book entitled "Fifteen
Years in Hell," written within the In
diana asylum for the insane, where he
had been incarcerated while in a con
dition of liquor madness. He writes
and speaks from his personal experience
which, assisted by a naturally vivid
imagination and talent for description,
produces a powerful effect on his audi
tors. He will speak here next Wednes
day and Thursday nights.
GOVERNOB CASWELL.
Mine Thompson's murderer Caught.
Our local columns a few weeks ago
gave an account of the murder of Miss
Caroline Thompson, in Alexander
county. Several parties suspected were
arrested only to be released, but the
Lenoir Topic of this week says:
We hear that the murderers of Miss
Caroline Thompson, of Alexander,
have been captured. We get our in
formation through the mail rider from
Taylorsville to Petra Mill. He says
that soon after the murder of Miss
Thompson and the robbery of her fath
er, Henry Marshall, living in the neigh
borhood, disappeared, and was traced
to Watauga, (to what part of the coun
ty, our informant did not know), where
he had bought some land and settled.
Suspicion still pointing towards him,
he was arrested and carried to Taylors
ville. Upon the preliminary examina
tion last Friday, Marshall confessed his
guilt and said that he had an accom-
Elice named Lackey.twho was sent for,
ut had not been brought in when the
mail carrier left Taylorsville. Marshall
shows three severe scars upon the
thighs and hip, which he said were in
flicted with an axe in the hands of
Miss Thompson. He says that their
object was robbery alone, but that
Miss Thompson attacked them with
the axe in order to drive them off, and
they were forced to kill her to save
their own lives.
Later We have interviewed the
mail carrier between Lenoir and Tay
lorsville, from whose statement we are
enabled to correct the above account,
which is all right in some of the main
points. The name of the man under
arrest is Dockery. He has made no
confession, but old man Thompson
identified some of the money found on
his person, and another witness swore
that Dockery inquired the way to
Thompson's on the day before the mur
der. Officers are after one Church, a
chum of Dockery. The trial took place
Monday, and Dockery was sent on to
the next term of court. The jail is
guarded to prevent an escape and lynching.
Will Not Accept.
We are authorized to state that Prof.
W. J. Martin, of Davidson College, who
has recently been elected to a chair in
the University of North Carolina at
Chapel Hill, will not accept the position
offered him. We are not surprised that
such an instructor as Col. Martin is
wanted at Chapel Hill, but we are quite
as glad to know that Davidson College
is not to lose him. lie has so much
faith in the future of Davidson College
that he prefers to remain there.
Whether on the field or on the rostrum
Colonel Martin, for by th,at name he
is known to many North Carolinians, is
a born leader, and we trust that he may
be soared vet inanv vears in the -service
of his State, as he will he as a processor

A Chapter of JHUIortunes.
Capt. F. W. Ahrens, who was men
tioned a3 having a house wrecked by
the storm at Chester, S. C, the other
week, met with a two-fold misfortune
tythe accident. The contract for buid
ing the hbiise was rrjadeseveral thontbs
ijgo. About theitime the foundation was
completed, the gentleman who let the
contract died, which rendered the
house almost worthless to e owner,
although it was the intention to com
plete the building as soon as possible.
After the storm leveled it with the
ground, the owner refused to have it
rebuilt, and thereby the contractor
iinds nearly all the material, made to
oruer, into the building, remaining on
his hands. By the accident Capt.
4hren3 loses a contract besides a large
pbrtion of the frame which was destroy
ed; and in addition will have to get
somebody to order a house that will fit
a large lot of doors and sash ready
made.
Lajlns; of the Corner-Stone of His
Blanument A Grand Celebration at
Klnstoa Address of Got. Jarris to
the People.
The following proclamation has just
been issued by the Governor:
Executive Department.
Raleigh, N. C, July 19, 1831.
To the People of North Carolina :
I was charged by the last General
Assembly with the duty of erecting a
monument to the memory of Gov.
Richard Caswell, either in the town of
Kinston or at his grave, three miles
from the town, and a small bnt inade
quate appropriation was made for that
purpose.
An association, however, composed
of public-spirited men of Kinston and
vicinity, was formed with a view of
increasing the fund suffciently to se
cure the erection of a suitable monu
ment, and upon their success I agreed
to use the State appropriation to build
the monument in that town.
By the persistent effort of this asso
ciation, and the liberality of the people,
a sufficient fund has been raised to se
cure quite an imposing monument.
The 3d of August being the anniver
sary of Gov. Caswell's birthday, the as
sociation has designated it as the day
on which the monument shall be un
veiled. Senator Vance, at the request
of the association, has consented to de
liver an oration on the occasion. Sev
eral military companies will be present
and participate in the ceremonies, and
it is hoped that the Masonic fraternity
will join with us in these services, in
honor of one who held the highest
offices in their order.
Special trains will be run with greatly
reduced rates of fare, so as to give the
people an opportunity to attend.
I hope to see large numbers of the
people there to witness these interest
ceremonies, and to do honor to the
memory of this accomplished surveyor,
able lawyer, skillful financier, success
ful soldier, profound statesman, devo
ted patriot and honest man,
It is fit and proper, in these days of
the assassin's greed for the emoluments
of office, that men should give a day to
the memory of one who served his
country without stint and without com
pensation. 1 therefore invite the peo-
Ele to make the 3d of August a general
oliday throughout the Statei
I am, your obedient servant,
Thomas J. Jarvis, Governor.
Mrs. Stonewall Jacknon to the Army
of Tennessee.
We find the following letter, just pub
lished in the New Orleans Democrat
and publish it as a matter of local in
terest :
Captain J. A. Chalaron, president of
the Association of the Army of Ten
nessee, Louisiana Division, having re
ceived a letter of acknowledgment
irom Mrs. Stonewall Jackson, whose
recent visit to New Orleans our citi
zens will remember, submitted it to the
executive committee of the associa
tion, who authorized its publication by
a representative of the Democrat :
Lexington, Va., July 6, 1881.
Capt. J. Ad. Chalaron, President Army
of Tennessee :
My Dear Sir I hope you will par
don my delinquency in replying to
your eloquent letter.which was received
during my visit to New Orleans, but
having been constantly on the wing
ever since, and visiting relations from
whom I had long been separated, I
have found but little time or opportu
nity for writing.
Your tribute to the memory of my
dear husband was very beautiful and
patriotic, and was most warmly ap
preciated by my daughter and myself.
The badges of your association we
will prize and keep as souvenirs, of
your honorable body, and the pleasant
little offering of sweets in the shape of
the knapsacks of bonbons proved to be
very acceptable and delicious.
We beg you tp accept our most
hearty thanks for the distinguished
consideration with which you treated
us during our memorial visit to the
Crescent City, and we trust the bless
ings of heaven may descend upon each
one of the members of the noble Army
of Tennessee. Very truly youis,
Mary Axna Jackson,

The Raleigh
says:
"The bar-rooms in this
number half as many as
five years ago."
To which the Star rejoins :
"Then what's the matter? Does not
that show that temperance is making
yery fair progress in Raleigh?"
Why, certainly it shows that temper
ances is making very fair progress in
Raleigh, and so temperance is making
progress all over North Carolina. We
needn't go back firs year Iq n.nd the
bacdnnine of the nroffreas. The seed
sown' by the tfcrnperance speakers, ridi
culed as they were by those who are
now the ardent mends of moral sua
sion, was not lost. It lay hidden until
less than a year ago when Prohibition
came whistling along like a mmnie
ball. Now behold the progress temper
ance is making. Not only are there
fewer bar-rooms, but there's not a man
in North Carolina no, not a human be
ing, but is in favor of temperance.
Even the liauor-dealers in their mani
festo, declare that they are the friends of
temberarice : the bar-keepers one and
all will sav that they are f riehds of
temperance. No one believes them, da
you say V True enough, but it mark?
the tidal wave that is sweeping eyery
thintr before it.
Wonderful, wonderful change : and
what did it ? Not these bar-keepers, or
liquor-dealers, or Anti-prohibUion pa
pers, whose columns might be ransack
ed for a score of years back in search
of aline or a word urging temperance.
Prohibition did it. and prohibition has
just commenced its work. Prohibition
has done much, but there are far great
er things to come,
