Hundreds of sorrowing people be gan to gather at an early hour, anxious to testify by their presence the respect they bore to their deceased fellow-citi-gen and former chief magistrate. Carnages began to arrive from every direction, and soon the side streets were filled frith them. By 8 o'clock a viit throng, numbering many thousand peo ple had gathered on the opposite side of the ayenue, extending for a block or more in every direotion. President Cleveland and Postmaster General Vilas arrired in a carriage di rect from the train at 8 20 a. m. and entered the house of mourning. Many feople uncovered their heads when the resident stepped out of his carriage. Shortly afterwards Governor Hill and Judge William Muller arrived and also alighted from their carriage and entered the house. They were followed by the Senate eommittee. There was no servioe at the house. 'At 8 o'clock the black casket, covered with palmetto leaves, sprays of violets and a; wreath of white roses. wa lifted by the undertakers' assistants and borne from the house. The silent form cf Chester A. Arthur passed through the door iof its earthly tenement for the Let time and was reverently placed in the funeral-draped hearse. There was no display of pomp or oeren:ony, militsry, musie or proecr sion, but the mighty throng of sorrow ing people bore witness to their love, nod respect for the deceased statesman. iNext came out of the residenoe Chester A.

The mourners filled 25 carriages, but over 100 earrisses filled with friends who had been unable to gain admission to the house followed the proeetsion to the church. The exterior of the church was elab orately deeorated, the .porticos over the entranoe and the msfsive pillars sup- Dortiss it beug cotered with heavy black cloth draped in festoons, hiding the stone entirely from view.

The Bishop then offered a prayer and pronounced the beneditien. tbo earth was thrown into the grave and pressed down and when the dusk of veninsr began to settle on the forest and bill, deft hands eovered the newly made mound with sheets of sod.

The counties; created while his land ofnoe was open for pur chasers derived their rectangular shape from being made comformablc to his boundaries, just as tbe counties of our new States are not defined by running streams and mountain ridges and the curved limits of swamps, but by the ui?eyor's chain and the theodolite.

In the begining of this century tiere occurred at Raleigh a BATTU Of oiAim The icene of the coiflict was the circuit court of the United States. The arbiter of the foray was J udge Potter. On the side of the plaintiff the leader was Wm. uaston. Un tbe side of the defendant the most eminent wss Duncan Cameron. It was Earl Granville struggling to get back from the people of Worth Carolina tbe magnificent estate which they had won by tbe sword. When tbe fight was ended all that remained to tbe noble earl was the honor of naming two of our counties, urenvilie and Carteret, He carried his futile quest to the su preme court cf the United States, but the war of 1812 came on and the plain tiff returned from tbe pursuit. : .Lord Carteret took possession of hi North Carolina territory in 1744. sent forth his agents, Childs and F o- hech, -and opened bis land moes and made his sales. His praetiee w is to re quire reservations of quit-rents to be paid yearly. The settlers had the double burden of paying rents on their lands to Granville and poll taxes to the royal governor at Newbern. The same exactions were for rich bottoms and barren rock hills, so. much per acre. The officers who collected the exactions were appointed by Earl Gran viile or the royal Uovernor. : The peo ple regarded them as foreigners aid enemies, and the officers on their parts were often unfeeling and brutal. Roads were horrible. Crops could not be turned into money. Speoie was almost unknown and paper money was for bidden.

He told of the es tablishment of the orphanage, its pro gross, present need" and prospects During the oourse of Mr Mil's' remarks he gave out these rules far guidance for church building. A brick house oov- ered with slate will cost as many dollars as the house oover equare feet; if wood, with shingle roof, will cost half as much as it covers square, feet. And then the house will seat one for every four f qare feet of the oovered area.
