CLOSING EXERCISES
Of tlie nuntersvUle High School
To the Editor of The Observer.,
- We axe constrained to send you a few
items relative to this interesting and
most enjoyable occasion, for we Know
that The Observer is an advocate
and guardian of educational interests,
and of all interests that elevate, digni
fy and refine our people. .-.
This school, though of recent origin,
is now a nourishing one, it is an honor
to the town and a blessing to the whole
community. Under the efficient man--"agement
of its principal, Eev, W. W.,
Orr, who combines thorough scholar
ship with indomitable energy, sustain
ed, as he is, by the patronage of a spirit
ed people, it has arisen from an humble
primary go a respectable high school.
The building is a large and commodious
one, nicely finished, and overtopped by
an eight-foot belfry. It consists of
three apartments, conveniently large
for teaching roomsj and one of these
is used for a music room. The whole
can be converted into a large audience
room, by means of adjustable partitions
an ingenious arrangement for "com
mencement" occasions J
The closing examinations were pro
nounced by competent judges to have
been exacting and thorough. They
were conducted under a competitive
prize system, and were as a matter of
course scrupulously rigid.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT.
The program (this, I believe, is now
the approved spelling of the word) for
Wednesday night was a good one, and
consisted of original essays, by mem
bers of the school, who were competing
for a prize. The following is the pro
gram: ..
Our school days and how we should
improve them" Miss Julia Alexander,
Huntersville.
"Home" Miss Anna Brown, Hun
tersville. "The saddest words of tongue or pen, -Are
what I might have been."
Miss Maggie Black, Lancaster, S. C.
"The boy of the 19th Century," Miss
Mary Black, Lancaster.
"The pleasures of memory," Miss
Amity Hunter, Hunterville.
WA true friend "Miss Ellen Hunter,
Huntersville.
"No pains, no gains" Miss Janie
Knox, Huntersville.
"The girl of the period," Mr. M. W.
Gibson, Statesville.
"Honor and shame from no condition rise
Act wlel your part there all the honor lies,"
J. P. Knox, Huntersville.
"Labor," George Steele, Hunters
ville. It was not my pleasure to hear these
essays, but we know they were highly
creditable. They say that is, the ladies
they were perfectly splendid.
THURSDAY MORNING.
Early in the morning the people came
nocking in to town from the whole
country. Every conceivable style of
equippage, from tbe substantial two
wheeled donkey cart to the magnificent
city turnout, might have been seen
wending their way through clouds of
dust to the grove near the academy,
which was soon filled to overflowing,
and mainly with ladies, while the men
and boys stood around the doors and
windows, with distended eyes and gap
ing mouth catching more dust than
tney realized pront and pleasure from
the exercises within. These" were open
ed with an appropriate prayer by the
Bev.D. G. Caldwell, after which the
principal announced the program.
The audience was intelligent and ap
preciative, and evinced their hearty co
operation and sympathy by their re
spectful and patient attention. This
was very noticeable and could be readi
ly seen by your correspondent who
happened to be one of the distingue,
and had a seat on the rostrum!
The speeches of the young men were
well selected, and, their declamations
werereasonablygood. Some of them ex
hibited the genuine fire of the orator,
while others were very placid and sub
dued almost overcome.
The audience was dismissed for din
ner, and there was an abundance of it
too plenty to eat and plenty to drink ;
but nothing stronger than ice water
and lemonade, for Huntersville voted
the prohibition ticket! All honor to
that noble, right-minded people.
AFTERNOON.
The afternoon'exercises consisted of
the annual address to the school by C.
E. Grier, Esq., and the delivery of prizes
by the Rev. W. T. Waller, the efficient
superintendent of public instructions
of Mecklenburg county.
The speech of Mr. Grier was plain,
pointed and practical, and judging
from the frequent outbursts of ap-
a. r it
piause.mec wiui we nearcy approba
tion of his audience. After the apolo
getic remarks customary with profes
sional men because of official duties.
the speaker laid aside all formality and
talked in a congratulatory manner, to
the principal, pupils and people oi tneir
school, of their distinguished educa
tional advantages, or tne Dngnc pros
pects that surround them, and the still
brighter future that awaits them. He-
thought that if our country were dotted
with well regulated schools we would
have no need of our court houses, peni
tentiaries and jails, no need for so ma
ny professional men, the "poor lawyer"
not excepted! He spoke of ante-bellum,
or slavery civilization, as ne styled
it, and thought that it was not only hu
miliating, but degenerating; that it im
posed a shackle upon our people that
stands out in glaring contrast with that
enterprising spirit that independence
of thought and action which now char
acterizes us as "the Southern people,"
and -.that social and intellectual ad
vancement that material development
which has won for our fair country the
distinctive appellation, "the new South
land." -
He advised the young men to direct
their, attention and energies to me
chanical pursuits, to manual occupa
tions; for there was a great and grow
ing demand for muscle-power as well,
as Drain-power, and that there were re
sources abundant and sufficient to com
mand the time and talents of the ris
ing generation, if it would only realize
that labor is honorable, and the only
sure road to independence. The speak
er also thought that a period of peace
and prosperity was dawning upon us,
and referred to the late assassination,
as an event that has cemented the
hearts of a great people and evoked
therefrom one grand universal prayer
that Almighty God might spare our,
President to his loyal, loving people.
Such an outburst of sympathetic en-1
thusiasmmust be indicative of better
thines vet to come. Mr. Urier, referred
to the perpetuity of the principles of
our government , that ,tney .were the
precious heritage bequeathed us by our
patriotic ancestry that they had sur
vivpirVthft wreck of empires and were
destined to be perpetuated in 1 imper
ishable character throughout all com
ino crenerations. His remarks on our
duties in view of our privileges and
prospects were pertinent ' and suggest
tivew .The speech had much -else, in it
that was good,-and some : things that
your correspondent did .not exactly en
dorse, but ne is charitable enough to
think that they; were t prompted by tb
inspiraUcrn .of tJie... occasion, andCwefe
simply a lapsus ixngva. ,- h t..v-d
Mr. Waller's speech was 5a good-one
run or wholesome au vice and judicious
counsel, and .was- presented' in a most
forcible : and : eloquent manner.
He. addressed'' a few -,rverda
to the, contestants, for prizes spokeL

students, and proceeded to deliver the
prizes to the successful .competitors.' '
The committee pn essays decided, in
favor of Mjss Maggie .Black and hon
orably mentioned iMiss Janie - Knox.
The prize in Rhetoric and Latin was
awarded to Miss Janie Knox. In Eng
lish Grammar the prize was given to
wiine uuey ; in spelling, to Miss Anna
Brown; in composition, to Miss Mag
gie Black ; in oratory, to J. P. Knox.
Alter the presentation of tne prizes,
Mr. Waller spoke for some time, and
with, great effect, on the subject of
Truth, as an essential element of man
hood, r would make copious extracts
from tthls speech, but my communica-
say it was a strong appeal to the young
ror tne cultivation or tne ecernai prm-
'a - in . i
cipiea oi trutn, of morality ana religion
without" which there is no true man
hood, and upon which the stability, the
moral power, and grandeur or Docn
Church and State are absolutely depen
dent.
The exhibition Thursday night cap
ped the climax of the occasion. It con
sisted of dialogues, burlesques, charades
etc., ana everytningm mac line oi en
tertainment. The sentimental largely
predominated and seemed to be the
style which the boys and girls most
enjoyed. .
it is estimated tnat not less man one
thousand two hundred people were
in attendance upon these exercises.
This is the highest evidence of the ap
preciation by this people of their edu
cational advantages, and speaks well
for them. It is that spirit that has al
ways estimated the true hearted people
of Mecklenburg; they are abreast with
the great tide of advancement and pros
perity both material and educational
-which is now rolling oyer our fair
country. M. P.
Chronic Pyaemia.
Dr. Robert F. Weir, a well-known
New York surgeon, says that the Presi
dent has chronic pyremia or septicaemia.
It began with the chills of July 23, and
from that time the pus exposed to the
air has decomposed and been absorbed
into the system. Acute pyemia occurs
in the early stage of an injury and is
almost universally fatal. Chronic pyae
mia is a disease only recently recog-
i i- i ; mi b
Hizeu uy uie piuieaaiun. jLuero isiever
with numerous abscesses in the glands
and muscular tissues. The mortality
is great, from 75 to 80 per cent He
thinks the President's outlook bad, as
enougn fuel cannot be put into him to
run the machine on its up-grade course.
The best treatment is good air, full diet
and slimulants, with early and free
opening of abscesses. Pyaemia was once
common in hospitals, but Lister's treat
ment, based on the fact that the dis
charges from a wound become poison
ous oh contact with the air. has driven
it away. Tbe wound is covered by Lis
terism from the very start with dress
ings peculiarly impregnated, with car
bolic acid, because tne acid has been
found capable of destroying all life in
the germs that, floating in the air, cause
the decomposition of the pus. Had
complete antiseptic treatment been re
sorted to in the beginning of the Presi
dent's case, a feeling of security would
have ensued, and the present complica
tions would have been avoided.
Gen Zollicoffcr
Wilmington Star.
' Gen. Felix Zollicoffer was born in
Halifax county, North Carolina, as
were Gen. Ben. McCullough and Gen.
Junius Daniel, all of whom were kill
ed. We doubt if three braver men ever
lived, or ever died in battle. Gen. Zol
licoffer perished in an attempt to re
trieve a battle lost by the bad conduct
of Gen. Crittenden, of Kentucky. When
Fry shot him he shot "the bravest of
the brave." He was once attacked near
the postoffice in Nashville by the per
son he was canvassing against for Con
gress. The enemy opened fire at about
twenty paces, advancing and shooting.
Zollicoffer had but one single barrel
and the cap failed to explode. He cool
ly took a pin from his coat, picked the
tube, recapped, took deliberate aim,
fired and knocked over his antagonist,
hitting him in the head somewhere.
He escaped himself and the enemy re
covered. He was a man of sense, of
honor, of the highest courage. North
Carolina will do well to cherish his
memory among its other fallem braves.
More than twenty North Carolinians
who rose to the rank of general per
ished in battle during the war.

A Stallion Puts a Baltimore Drum,
nier to Flight.
Milton Chronicle. .
While Mr. ,a well-known
drummer of huge corporosity, hailing
from Baltimore, was wending his way
from Milton to Roxboro, in a two-horse
hack driven by old man Jim Bass, col
ored, when they reached a point beyond
Dr. Thaxton's, in Person county, they
descried a stallion horse standing in the
road as if awaiting their approach. The
Baltimorian took in the situation and
suggested a halt until the brute of a
beast could be run off, but uncle Jim,
having on more "anti" than prohibi
tion, said "cuss de hose, if he don't git
away I'll drive over him," and by this
time the stallion flung his heels ten feet
high in the air, and backing on the
horses in harness he continued to kick
and actually kicked the harness off one
horse by breaking the hamestring. In
the melee he kicked the hack and in
flicted damages, whereupon the drum
mer jumped out and made for a tree,
leaving uncle Jim to fight it out on
that line, if it took all summer.

Death of major F. D. Poisson.
Wilmington Star.
It is with regret that we are called
upon to announce the death of Major
Frederick D. Poisson, a prominent
member of the legal profession of this
city, which took place at 0 ;45 a. m. Mon
day. He was attacked with a stroke
of paralysis two weeks ago, but was
thought to be rapidly recovering. On:
Friday, however, he was visited by a
second stroke, from which he never
rallied, remaining in an unconscious
stupor until the hour mentioned, when
he passed off without the least percep
tible struggle. Major Poisson was bornj
in Wilmington on the 10th day of April,
1886, and was consequently in the 46th
year of his dge. lie graduated with
honor at Trinity College, Hartford,
Connecticut, in 1855, and received his
license to practice law in 1857.
Hot teood for Dogs.
Wash. Cot Baltimore Sun.
Orie'of tthe army surgeons here who
has never; had any faith in the nutritive
qualities of the beef extract furnished
the government dispensary, and who
thought it useless to give it to the-President,
undertook about three weeks
ago a novel experiment to test its qual
ities. He procured twelve dogs, six of
them he fed with the beef extract, and
to the other six he gave no nourish
ment whatever. At the end of two
weeks the six dogs who had been nur
tured on the beef extract were dead of
starvation, and the other six, who had
not received a morsel of food of any
kind, although emaciated, were still
alive. " --i '.

Mrs, Wlnslow's Soothing Syrup.
Rev. Sylvanns Cobb thus writes In the Boston
Christian Freeman: We would by no means re-'
commend any kind of medicine which we did not
know to be good particularly for infants. s But of
Mrs. Wlnslow's Soothing Syrup we can speak from
knowledge; in cur own family It has proved a
blessing Indeed, by glvin g an infant troubled with
colic pains, quiet sleep,-and its parents unknown
rest at night. Most parents can appreciate these
blessings. Here is an article which works to per
fection, and which is harmless; for the sleep
which it affords the Infant is perfectly natural, and
the little cherub 'awakes as "bright as a button."
And during the process of teething, its value Is
incalculable. We have-frequently heard mothers
say they would not be without it from the birth of
the child till it had finished with the teething
