The horse-traders had it lively on
Tuesday.
The crowd in town on Tuesday was
the largest we have seen here in years.
Hardy, of the Carolinian, and Rog
ers, of the News-Observ er," were here, this;
week.
Mr. C. ML Cooke, Jr., killed two hogs

450 pound, the smaller 275. : J .

that hoar. The .only business attended
to. Monday evening was the- selection - of
the Grand J nry, and the delivery of the
J udge's charge. His charge was soond
and forcible, and its delivery was clear
in every respect so clear that no man of
ordinary intelligence could fail to under-?
stand the duties of a grand juror. Solic

hand, and prosecuted the State's side., of

township, this con ntyeame op fortrial
at this term of the Superior Court.; The
grand jury found a true bill on Tues
day, and the prisoners were at once ar
raigned. The prisoners had no eoansel
and Judge By nam assigned Messrs. F.
S. Sprnill and W. M-Person to defend
them. The Sheriff was ordered to sum

men, returnable on Thursday morning.
The Con rt House was filled before the
hour for the opening of the Court ar
rived, bat when the J edge came into the
Loart House he ordered the crowd to
clear the Court room, as he had been In
formed by an nmbe of. men that there
was danger of the floor giving way.
.The special venire was called and the
selection. .of the jury began at 11.S5

no mistake?' They know just exactly Uuiltv
what their, patrons want, and hardly ever
Ro8anna
fail to satisfy. Thev will have a new
advertisement in the Times next week,
too busy to write it np this week.
A special from Raleigh to the Wil
mincrton Messenger says: To-day the
heirs of the estate of Mrs. Mary Smith
Morehead were paid a $40,000 dividend
here. This is after all the legacies are
paid. Other dividends will be paid.
The Times welcomes its good friend,
W. K. A. Williams to town, tie is one
of the rising young men of this county.
He will be glad to have his friends call to
eee him at J ones & Cooper's, where he
has accepted a position as salesman.
In addition to the local bar the fol
lowing lawyers were in attendance at
Court this week : Shaw and Zollicoffer,
Henderson; Batchelor and Basbee, Ral
eigh; Cooley, of Nashville; Shaw, of Ox
ford; Galley and Bullock, Franklin ton;
Paul Jones, Tarboro.
As will be seen elsewhere in the
Times B. T. Ayescue & Co., have gone
into the fish and oyster business in Louis-
burg, and they are receiving on the days
named in their advertisement nice fresh
fish and delicious oysters We have
tried some of their fish and oysters and
are prepared to say that Doth are very
fiue. Mr. Ayescue says that if the pub
lic will appreciate their jefforts to-supply
the market with nice fresh nsn and oys
ters at the moderate and reasonable prices
named, they will make arrangements to
receive them oftener. See their adv.
As an exchange says, there is a sad
propensity in human nature; very sad.
It is to listen to scandal, and help to
spread it, too. Without intention to do
oar neighbor an injury, a careless remark
may be seized by a babbler, and as a
snowball grows by rolling it so does a
story by telling. It passes through the
babbling tribe, growing larger and larger
and darker and darker, and by the time
it has rolled through Babbletown it has
assumed the largeness and blackness of
base slander. Curb this- propensity as
far as possible. Thewuri&has much in
it that is unpleasant without adding any
thing more.
There was considerable complaint on
the part of those who were anxious to wit
ness the.proceeding of selecting the jury
in the murder trial on Thursday, bat
were prevented from so doing because of
the fact that Judge By nam ordered the
Court room cleared before the work of se
lecting the jury begun. The Judge said
that his reason for clearing the room was
that he had been informed that there was
danger of the floor giving way, and if
such was the ease he desired and intended
to see to it that no such calamity should
take place, if he eoald prevent it. So the'
eosaplainers will see that the J ndge was
looking after their : safety, and. at the
same protecting th$ county from loss. j

oar experience who may be described as r
being "moire nice than wise: And as an
exchange says, they have manifested this
in different ways--8ome in the manage
ment and training of their children, and
the constant surveillance kepi ever them
in every -way, In this ; connection -.Iwe
would say that there are two Tery; efflca
cious ways of making children- bad-one
is by telling them too. much' about mee
for their yearsand 'warning them -too
frequently against it, and the other is by
not telling them enough- on the - subject,
and not advising them enough against
the world's temptations. Sensible par
ents know what the middle ground is and
stay on it; fanatical ones go to ju&" ex
treme always and raise eulprita 'of chil
dren when they think they are going . to
raise pinks of perfection And "more
nice than wise' parents are very apt to
be fanatical, observation has taught us.

The Compliment Mutual.
Before adjourning court Saturday
J udge Bynnm spoke very complimentary
of Solicitor Woodard, of the ofBeers of
the court, of the bar, and of Greenville
and her people. The Reflector is glad he is
tocome back to Pitt for the other spring
terms. He and Solicitor Woodard make
a splendid battery to strike out the evil
doers. It stands to the credit of Judge
Bynum also, that he never jtravels on
Sunday when it can be avoided, and for
that reason he remained here until Mon
day morning. 3reenville Reflectosr
Some New ear Advice.
Don't wait for the wagon while the
walking is good.
Don't grieve over spilt milk while
there's one cow left in the pasture.
Don't say the world is growing worse
when you are doing nothing to make it
better. ' -
Don't tell the world your troubles.
You can't borrow $10 on them.
Don't let the grass grow under yoar
feet. The cows can't get at it there.

Potato Contest.
Some time ago the editor Of the Times
tendered to a lady member of the Bap.
tist chareh at Frauklinton, two sub
script iona to the Times, one for one
year and another for six months, to be
awarded to the person who delivered
the largest and the second largest five
sweet potatoes, at the post-office at
Franklinton, the same to be sold for the
benefit of the new Baptist church. The
following were the contestants, and
weights of potatoes :
$. P. Weaver brought fire potatoes
weighing 24 pounds, raiwd on N. Y.
Gufiey's farm. J . R. Jones 222 pounds,
Mrs. J.I. Moore 18 poundx, W. H.
Mitchell 17 pounds. W. H. Harris 17
pounds, W. C. Dnke 16 pounds, Chas
McGhee 14 pounds, R. O. Pernell 12
pounds. J. L. Mitchell and H. C. Duke
having no very largos potatoes said they
would bring more in weight anyway
Mr. Mitchell brought 91 pounds and Mr.
Duke 50 pounds. Mr. Q. P. Weaver
gets The Frahkuit Times for twelve
months. Mr. J . R. Jones gets the same
paper fcr six months. Mr. S. H. Card
brought the largest corn. He will get
The Franklinton Weekly for twelve
months.
It will be seen that Q. P. Weaver gets
Charges Against Mr. Simmons.
A late number of the Fayetteville Ob
server states that charges affecting the
honor of Hon. F. M. Simmons had been
filed with the finance committee of the
United States Senate. Mr. Simmons'
attention having been called to thut
statement, he nays : "If any charge af
fecting my character in any respect has
been filed with the committee.! have not
been informed of it, and Senator Vance,
who is a member of the committee, has
told me that no such charges had been
preferred, and woald havjnotified me
if such were the case Mr. 'Hale has
shown a bitterness toward me which is
inexplicable. This statement is simply
in keeping with his other statements
regarding myself. I am not aware of
any charges preferred against me by
others than the Repobl leans the Popu
lists and Mr. Hale. I am willing to rest
my case with the people in 'the fae ef
charyes from such sources. I have no
fear that my appointment will not be
confirmed. I eertaialy know that Sena
tor Vance will not permit me to be at
tacked without notifying, me of, it, . and
he uimself has said that b - has
charges to prefer against me."
