while of necessity the very new and

have asked but a reasonable profit on
them, and tried to offer a good variety at
all prices. . Knowing that articles of real

than ever before, also in Crockery-and

What The Think of Hut.. :
The Raleigh Newt Dtsener says of Dr.
Nelson, who has accepted the call of the
Baptist church in this place : "
"The people of Raleieh. will learn with
profound regret that Rev. Dr. W. A. Nel
son, who has for several years been pastor
of the Second Baptist church of this city,
and under whom the chnrch has grown
largely in every particular, has accepted
a call to the pastorate of the Baptist
church in AsheviUe. Dr. Nelson has
by his earnest straightforward and faith
ful work greatly endeared himself to his
congregation, and it is difficult for them
to see how they are to do without him;
but as he thinks his duty lies in accept
ing the .AsheviUe call, they bow to the
necessity of his departure with sorrow.
yet with wishes for his welfare wherever
he may make his home.'
Wbstebn Nobth Carolina Wins a Com-
PUMENTABY Prize.
On the first of January, 18S6, the N. Y,
Tribune offered a prize of f 250 for the best
true story of the late war, and a prize of
(100 for the second best. About 500
responses were received, comine from
every portion of this country and a large
number from the Old World. Twenty-
seven were selected to publish, and Mr.
Edmund . C. Stedman was selected to
award the prizes. He - has made the
award as follows :

Mb. Will H. Osborne.
The last issue.of the Shelby Aurora has
this to say of this gentleman, who is at
present in AsheviUe, but who leaves to
day for the.Sonthern Baptist Theological;
College at Louisville, Ky. Says the
Aurora:
"We sincerely reeret the departure of
Mr. win h. usborne from bnelbv and
his withdrawal from North Carolina
journalism. Very often we have been
unable to take tbe same views of tbmgs
as he did and there were great differ
ences between us, but a close association
with him has taught us always to respect
the many admirable qualities which he
possessed. " Young men like Mr. Osborne
are capable of much trood in their day
and generation and we are glad to know
that he has not withdrawn from active
labor, but proposes only to "go up high
er." The Aurora, we are sure, will sadly
miss the brains he carries with him. In
common with many others, we wish Mr.
Osborne abundant success in tbe high
calling which it is his purpose to enter."
