The tube rose business in tl e Magnolia section is of much larger proportion than many would suppose. There are plenty of lands near Goldsboro suitable for the raising of tube roses. The phosphate rock recently placed on the streets is getting in excellent condition and shows the wisdom of the Aldermen. Good streets and good roads are essential to the prosperity of any country. A young colored boy, son of Jim Sykes, while out hunting be yond Stony Creek, on Thursday, was shot at from .ambush and wounded in the leg by a 32-cali bre ball. N. Baker, dealer in dry goods, Wilson, N. C, has made an as signment with liabilities of about $25,000. The Times says the sufferers are mostly Northern firms, and that the assignment will be attacked, Mr. Baker has retained five lawyers. The many friends in the city of Prof. Cralle, at one time of the faculty of the Goldsboro Graded school, will be interested to learn that he was married last Wednes day in New York, to Miss Ruth Celia Tice. They will make their home at Blackstone, Va. Invitations have been issued by Mr. and Mrs. W. B. Lane of Newbern, to the marriage of their daughter Miss Harriet to Mr. Thos. G. Hyman, December 8th. The groom has many friends in this city, whose best wishes will be with him on the coming happy oc casion. Goldsboro has excellent rail road facilities. This fact alone should bring us many citizens We have the best town in the State, but are we content with our present population, and the present size of the town.' in iy(J0 the census will be taken. What population will Goldsboro then have? More wheat has beea sown in this county than for many years IE our farmers would prepare their land as thoroughly as do the farmers in the western part of the State, they would make just as much wheat. We will not have prosperous times until we have diversity of crops, and good state government. We have before us the current number of the Charlotte, N. C. Medical Journal, and among its very readable and instructive con tributions from medical men of the State and country at large is an able article from, the pen of our talented young friend and townsman Dr. Paul C. Hutton, on "Ancetanilid in Malaria." The more one lives, the more is he impressed with the truth of man's dependence. The yellow fever in the South bas been more far-reaching in its effects than one would, suppose. Among other things, it bas shut out hundreds of theatrical people who expected to nil engagements in that sec tion during tbe fall months Hence, the section of country outside! of tbe lever district is bow run over with companies: so many, in fact, that they can hard ly live.

It was a hard life they led among the difficulties and dangers of the early settlement of this New World, and it is small wonder that their doctrines also seem grim aud hard to their lass strenuous descendants; but we shall miss much of the signifi cance of our American history if j we neglect those impulses of faith and devotion that, with all their now obvious errors, con trolled the development of our institutions and that found char acteristic expression in the civic formality of Thanksgiving Day. How or why our civic organic zation has gradually drifted apari from the religious convictions of the people need not be here dis cussed. It is simply a fact to be recognized. Yet the annual re currence of Thanksgiving Day, set apart by official proclamation, is an acknowledgment that the separ ation is not a natural one; that the State is still bound by God's law, and for its achievements in the ci vilization of the world is still de pendent upon Him. The day is thus a challenge to every believing man to testify his faith by a pub lic acknowledgement, in such form as his own religious associations direct; and furthermore to show his thankfulness by the spirit of Christian sympathy. And it is also a challenge to everv man who belieyes in truth and righteousness to bring all his best influence to bear for the promotion of truth and righteousness in civic affairs . It is a narrow and selfish view of the day that recognizes only the family festival and thinks neither of the duty of personal charity on the one hand, nor on the other of the obligation of membership in a Godvfeaiing Commonwealth. The domestic side of thanksgiving is well enough, but it is trivial in comparison with the public side of it, and only so far as this is recog nized can the day be made of any ! real importance or profit either to the individual or to the State. It is in this higher spirit of thankfulness aud in this broader impulse of humanity that the day has come to be observec in Goldsboro. This spirit of obser vance has been inculcated in the children of the community, as well, and so the levin will work on through the years, as the gen erations come and go, making the people better, drawing them closer together in bonds of fras ternal sympathy and reading them up to higher conception of life, its duties, its possibilis ties and its supernatural res wards. What a delightful con templation at this time, and how gratifyingly was it sustained by the manner of the day s obser vance by our people yesterday. In the Goldsboro Baptist church a large congregation wor shipped and listened to inspiring music, and a fine sermon by the pastor, Rev. Jas. Long, and the generous collection for the Thorn asville Orphanage attested the fealty of the congregation s thank fulness. At St. Johns Methodist church a goodly congregation worship ped, and the Rev. W. H. Frost preached. At the Hebrew Synagogue Rabbi Meyerberg discoursed ably on the significance and observ ance of the day, and the splendid Ky.l Manyaniiin who would bs v'sMs bare tnoiitrnt S'j) of sitting 'JsJ ilnwn anil dtliberateijr 622 drinking a dose of poi son, allovri bunself to te regularly and system atic aily poisoned day after day by accumula tions of bile in the blood.

Every part of the body is polluted. The digestive juices are suppressed and weat ened. The kidneys and skin are clogged with imrmrities ar.d the lungs and bronchi ul tubes overloaded with morbid secretion which eat away the delicate tissue, and bring about bronchitis and consumption. All the diseases caused by this subtle pro res3 of bilious poisonhipf are cured by the marvelous alterative action of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.

At St. Paul Methodist church the observance was in the nature of a union service, in which the Presbyterian minister and con gregation and tbe public gen3r ally participated. The decorations were elaborate and beautiful, of fruits and flowers, serials and vegetables and autumn leaves in richest colorings. The music was unusually fine, and the selections rendered appropriate to the day. The services were presided over by the pastor, Rev. R. B. John, and 'the opening prayer was of fered by the pastor of the Pres byterian churcn, Rev. P. W. Farries, It was an elcquent, com prehensive and moving supplica tion that brought ail hearts among his hearers in unison with the spirit of thankfulness and hallowed theai with the grace of service. The set programme for the oc casion," as published in the Argos, was interestingly carried out. Mr. W. C. Muuroe was the first speaker, His theme was "Bour tiful Harvests." Mr. Muuroe is always a fluent spoakar; but oa this occasion he surpassed evec himself, giving to the large con gregation a rare treat, as ferule in thought, as beautiful in dic tion, as satisfying in its rounded sentences as the bountiful har vests of which he taiked. He was. followed by Mr. F. A.

Dr . J. F. Miller was the third and last speaker. Hi3 subject was "Spiritual Privileges," and right earnestly and feelingly did he por tray the blessings of religious lib erty, and bring home to the heart of every one of his hearers a thankful realization of the sreat privilege of the freedom of wor ship which we enjoy and im pressed them sternly with the commensurate duty or service m accoriance with these pr Ciless privileges. The collection taken up it this service tor the Barium Sorins's and Oxford Orphanages was gen erous indeed. In business circles throughout the city the day was. generally observed and all the factories suspended operations for the day. So that we can say of Golds boro, not only in material things, but patrioctically, intellectually and spiritually, we . go fo -ward. We are able to give our readars two of those addresses to-day, that of Mr. M unrce and that of Dr. Miller, and later on we hepe to get that of Mr. Daniels in type, but up to this time we have not been able to secure the manuscript. - Mr. Munroe said: Ladies and Gentlemen: In obedience to a tirne-lionored custom, and in compliance with the proclamations of the President of the XJnited States and the Governor of our State, we 'are-here to-day; these- beautiful and appropriate dec orations eloquently suggest the pur pose for which we haye assemVed. I have been requested to make a short talk on "The Duty of Grati tude for the Bounties . of Provi dence," and I will premise what I have to sav with the remark that obedience to God, righteousneBW and i faith are not theories, or arbitrary rules without a reason, but are conr ditions, necessary to human happi ness and progress; this is none the less true of gratitude. I do not know that it would be true to say that ingratitude is a nat ural -attribute of the human heart, but the observation, if not the expe rience of all of you will bear me out in saying that, in our present condi tion, it is not an uncommon charac teristic of the human soul. We are largely the creatures of education, and among the desirable things to learn, none is of more importance tnan mat oi gratituae. ims is one of the most beautiful and lovely of human virtues, as ingratitude is one of the ugliest and most unlovely of numan vices. vv nen we go out on one ot our country roads and behold the hill sides all glorious with green and sil ver and gold and scarlet, our hearts must be dead indeed not to feel, to some extent at least, the stirrings of trie emotions oi gratitude. In the spring time, after a cold and dreary winter, when the tree and shrub are Duacimg into leat, ana irom every nook of yard and forest gentle flow ers are smiling ou us, we must for an instant at least know what it is to be grateful. "When, after a spell of bad weather, and the sombre clouds have for days, perhaps weeks hung like a pall over the earth. suddenly the sun pierces the gloom and floods our hearts and all around us with the brightness of its cheer, we cannot help, for a moment at least, lifting up our hearts in gratitude. Vhen we read of India, of the dried up rivers, the parched and cracked earth, the withered and dried herb age, of the starving millions; and then look over this fair land of ours, witn its magmUcent rivers, its bab li- i i 'i i ' Dimg DrooKs, its gurgling springs, its prairies burdened with wheat and corn, its fields white with cot ton, its granaries and wharves filled to overflowing, and all gorgeous with the glories of autumn, if our hearts are not stone, they must swell with gratitude for the blessings that are around us. But to whom are we grateful? To the forest, for its glories? To the flowers, for their beauty and fra grance? lo the sun, for its bright ness? To the land, for its plenty? Or to God, the maker of them and us? Let us hope that, in some dim way, behind these material things, that are seen and that per- isheth, the worst of us, at times, beholdeth Him, who is unseen, but is eternal. But it is not these sud den, transient emotions of gratitude tnat are to ttnng giaaness into our hearts and blessings to our homes and lives. Yre must learn being grateful as a duty, and exercise it as a pastnne. if we would experience it as a pleas ure and a blessing. In the very twilight of human his tory we behold Abel rendering : thank-ofiering to God, and "by it he being dead yet speaketh." We are here to-day, in some humble way, to imitate the example of Abel, and let us cneiisn tne nope that the act mav not be unfruitful of good, not only upon our own' lives, but upon the lives of future generations, that by it when we are dead we mav vet speak. fourteen hundred and ninety years belore Ulmst we see Moses prescribing the rules for offerings for thanksgiving. Four hundred years later we hear the psalmist ex claim "Enter into His gates with thanksgiving and into His courts with praise; be thankful unto Him and bless His name, for the Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting, and His truth endureth to all genera tions. All 1 It ii. uiousana years later on we see Christ giving thanks just before His coming death. And in Revelations, when it was vouchsafed to John to project him self into eternity, he heard "Blessing and glory, and wisdom, and thanks giving, -and honor, and power, and might be unto our God forever and ever!" Thus it will be seen that thanks giving, as a duty and -condition to happiness, runs like a golden thread through the whole human story, and ScroiDla ' Is a deec-seated blood disease which all the mineral mixtures in the world cannot cure.

We should not forget also on this interesting occasion to give thanks to God for His faithful minis ters who preach His word and bear the consolations of the Gospel throughout all lands. To the pio neers of the Cross should we be es pecially thankful, who, on horse-back and on foot in the early history of our country, in log-cabins and under brush arbors, "spread scriptural ho liness over these lands." The Gospel seed sown bv them took root in many hearts, and have borne a bountiful harvest in the many spiritual privileges we enjoy to-day. In view of all that God has done for us in the kingdom of His Grace and of His Providence, how great are our responsibilities to Him.

The first thanksgiving exercises in this country were held by the Plym outh colonists in 1623, on which occasion a meeting for fasting and prayer on account of drouth, was turned into one of thanksgiving and praise on account of a copious rain.

Well may we say, somewhat m tne lan guage of the psalmist, "Our garners are full, affording all manner of store; Our engines are strong to la bor, there is no complaining in our streets. Happy is our people, yea happy is that people whose God is the Lord." Let us then, one and all, in ac knowledgement for the bountiful har vests that have been sent on our and, and the other advantages we enjoy, ' Thank Lod and take cour age." CONCERNS OUR DAILY FOOD. Dr. Miller's theme was "Spirit ual Privileges," and he spoke as follows: Ladies and Gentlemen: Man has a dual nature. e is both material and immaterial, or car nal and spiritual. It is proper that we should be thankful to God for all material blessings. These are nec essary to supply the wants of the physical man, but we are taught that "Man shall not live by bread alone," and being a spiritual being, he needs spiritual blessings, and for these we should be even more grateful than for the blessings which minister to the physical man. It is this spirit ual nature which differentiates man from the lower order of animal crea tion. To save the spiritual man God gave His son to die for him and sent the blessed Spirit to lead him in the way of all truth. We should render thanksgiving to God for the privil ege of prayer that we mortals, bur dened with the sense of sin and un worthiness, are permitted to stretch out the arms of our faith and pray for itis iorgrvmg love. To us all there come times and circumstances when we need the strength of an arm which is almighty and a wisdom which is infinite to support and direct us, and it is blessed privilege to "take everything to God in prayer." We are invited to do this every day and hour, through Jesus Christ our Lord. We should feel thankful for the privilege of attending upon the ministry of God's word. It hath pleased God by the "foolishness of preaching to save them that are lost." Christ, the blessed Saviour, gave this commission to His apos tles: "Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature." We who live in this free and happy land, in which we have so many op portunities of hearing the gospel preached, are m danger of not ap preciating this great spiritual privil ege. With the preaching of the gospel we have the church and her ordinances, the fellowship of Christ ian people, and the communion of saints. How much happier are we than millions ot our fellow-mortals wno live in heathen lands and are de prived of all these 1 christian privile ges. - Lastly we have the Bible m which God has been pleased to reveal Him- self to man as .r ather, irriend and Saviour. He has revealed Himself somewhat to us by the visible work manship of His hands. Sun, moon and stars, and the earth, with bloom ing flowers, forests and seas, speak to us of His infinite and creative Dower. : . ' We sometimes hear His voice in the thunder when the mad storm king stretches his dark wings over the Heavens, and with cyclonic fury sweeps as with a besom of destruc tion everything before him, but in His word alone has He been pleased to reveal Himself as a God of love that He loves us and does not hate us, and that He so loves ns as to give His son to die for us. In His word the blessed Saviour answers the question, "If a man die will he live again?" To the weeping sister of His dead friend He uttered the grand and glorious words, "I am the resurrection and the life; he that be lieveth in me though he were dead, yet shall he live." The Bible is the basis of all our hopes, and the Frof. Mallet Bel lares There is Serious Dan cer In the Alum Baking Powder. The increased cost of cream of tartar, the chief ingredient of a pure baking powder, has induced some manufacturers to substitute burnt alum (which costs but three cents a pound) largely or wholly in lieu thereof, making a very low cost but unwholesome baking pow der; and efforts are made to sell these inferior powders by the in ducement of a lower price, and by false representations as to their in gredients and comparative value. Our most eminent physicians are continuously warning the pub lic against the use of alum baking powders, because of the unwhole some qualities which chey impart to the food . Dr. J . W. Mallet, Prof, of Chemistry at the Univer sity of Virginia, a scientist of the very highest reputation both in this country and abroad, who has made an elaborate and exhaustive investigation of the subject, says: "lam decidedly of opinion that both the substance (alum) itself and the products to which it gives rise in course of making bread, are in jurious to health, and on that ac count fall into the list of such food accessories as should on sanitary grounds be prohibited by law. ' ' AVhen an authority so well known and highly respected as Dr. Mallet makes this statement, it behooves every housewife to take every means in her power to insure her family against the use of these dangerous goods. It would be quite impossible to give the name of the alum baking powders m the market, but the danger from alum would seem to be serious and alarming, because of their prominence in almost every grocer's stock. Generally speaking, they are sold at a lower price, oometimes, Decause or their tendency to cake and spoil, they are put up in bottles. Under the circumstances and as a matter of safety, Prof. Mallet favors the use of the well known brand of baking powder, Royal, which his tests have shown, he says, to be made from the most healthful ma terials, entirely free from alum and every adulteration .

GLORY IN THEIR NATION. AMERICANS IN EUROPE CELE BRATE THANKSGIV ING DAY. Embassador Hay's Bright Wit He Is the Principal Speaker at the Sinner Given by tbe American Society in London. Second bassy; Mount deacon London,- Nov. 25. Over 300 American men and women, and a few English persons, celebrated Thanksgiving Day by a dinner at the Hotel Cecil to-nisrht. The party included John Hay, the United States Ambassador, and his wife aud daughter: Henry White, Secretary of tbe United States emhassy: J. R. Carter Secretary of the em Lord Strathcotna aud Royal, of Canda; Arch Sinclair, Louis Astor Chandler, and William Puich, United States Minister to Uru guay, Tne rr-enu, wmcn was specially designed for the occa sion, was ornamented with American and British flags, and over the seat oi the chairman was an enormous eagle. The list of toasts was long. The health of Queen Victoria was proposed by the chairman, who read a let ter, dated Windsor Castle, from Sir Arthur John Bigge, private secretary to her majesty, saying: "The Queen desires me to beg that the American Ambassador will be so good as to convey to the members of the American Society in London the expression of her maiesty s sincere thanks for the beautifully illuminated address of congratulation she received from that body. I have further to assure your excel lency how deeply the Queen was touched by the sentiments of sympathy with the enthusiasm of her own subjects on the sixtieth anniversary of her accession to the throne, which was contained in this address from citizens of the United States." Hon. Sir John Garrell Barnes, Justice of the High Court of Jus tice, proposed the health of Am bassador Hay, dwelling upon the friendliness that he be- lieyed exists between England and the United States, and say ing: "If the two countries will only put their backs together they can rule the destines of tbe world." i;oi. nay responded with a bright speech. He sketched the origin of the day, which began, he said, "in that pathetic thank offering of our forefathers when they were keeping alight the spark of freedom which . was aesunea to mndie into such'- a beacon blaze, enlightening and admonishing the world. Some of our peculiar institutions, continued Mr. Hay, "thanK heayen, we have lost. The worst passed away In the temrjest of the war it caused, but this, the most unquestionably peculiar of all, we can trust to abide with us forever. This is one of the few things we can do that offends no body, threatens no one, and com petes with no one. There can never be too much gratitude in the world.

Mr. Hay then paid an elcquent tnbuto to "the unknown, name less artist who in tbe days of eauy mew xuvgL&no. hrst brought to perfection the pumpkin pie." He indorsed Benjamin Franklin's suggestion that tne turkey should be the national emblem instead of the eagle, "who, with arsto cratio profile, loud voice, and predatory disposition, hardly commends himself as the pm- blem of modest, industrious, and conscientious democracv. whila the turkey, like a true altruist. exists only for the good of others and perishes by thousands yearly tor rne puonc welfare." in concluding his SDeetih. Mr- Hay enumerated the causes for tharjkfuluess, and said: VV e are thankful that we snpak- English; or if our friends on this side of the ocean think that, ia boasting, that we talk United States, which answers equally as wen xur Leinng tne truth.
