The Press Associa tion at its meeting in Charlotte, disphiy ed more moral courage than our last Leg islature. The Editors fought, as they have always done, the dog, and defended the sheep. The Legislature feared the constituency at home and allow the dogs to play havoc with the sheep. An other courageous thing on the part of the Press was that its members denied them themselves a printed historical record, de tailing the lives and public acta of its members. From these things the Press are exempt. - o Meeting of Coxcord PREsnrrERT. This body met at Thyatira church Hast Friday, 18th instant, aud after examining two young men, Mr. J. A. Ramsay-of this town, and Mr. R. D. Stimson of Statesville, proceeded to ordain and jn stall Mr. Ram say, Pastor of Thyatira church, and to li cese Mr. Stimson as a probationer. It is with sincere pleasure that we note the fact that another of our young men enters upon a useful and promising field of labor, and we trust that this venerable church will renew her youth under the faithful labors of our young friend. Mr. Stimson, we understand, will . go to Suffolk, Va., and our good wishes go with him. At this meeting the Rev. J. H. Col ton, late missionary to the Choctaws, was re ceived from the Presbytery of Indian, and Rev.A. E. Chandler was granted leave to labor outside the bounds of the Presbyte ry. He goes tofieorgia. o Hirer and Marine. Snake! One eve ning last week, a party of three ladies and five gentlemen went to the river for a pleasure ride. After going up the river about half a mile, one of the gentlemen got "behind on water," and insisted on pulling in to shore, where a small branch was emptying its crystal waters into the dark bosom of the Yadkin. Seeing that the young man was really in need of wa" ter, the party decided to do all they could to relieve him, and to the branch they pulled. J ust as they got under the edge of the overhanging boughs and smaller foliage along the shore a water moccasin, about 2 feet long fell from a limb into the lap of jtme of the young ladies. The gen tleman at the rudder saw it yelled, snake! -and turned a summersalt landing in the stream still clinging to the ropes and was towed in to the bank. In the mean time, there was no little confusion on board, the magic word, snake, had been echoed from every lip. As soon as the end of the skiff struck shore, the gent who was so far behind ou water, pitched the girls out in every direction aud got out himself leaving the others in the midst of danger The snake had taken refuge under the helmsman's seat, which was sion torn up by the- lion-hearts on board, and his snakeship dispatched in a little time Then that young man, Still on water bent, Found a log and over it lent, And frontthe crystal waters drank, While the girls stood frightened on the bank. -o- Get your "turnout"" and pick your part ner. There is a party forming for the purpose of the visiting the natural wall at the Kobley place, 9 miles north -northwest. It will probably go up on the 1st or 4th of June. Arrangements have lecu made to have the wall sufficiently uncov iered to admit of a satisfactory exaniina tioD, so that persons going on this excur sion may not lose time on this account. rn i j 11 i . s , , uie uesc roaa leaaing to it is tne "new Mocksville," via tiiti pretty little village of Franklin. . Those who have not trav elled that road will be agreeable surprised to find so promising a village within four miles of Salisbury. The hissing pf steam, the clanking of machinery, the lumber heaps, neat cottages, well kept gardens, school house and a fine new church peep ing through the foliage, altogether make a place of no small interest. They will also be surprised-that the road is leading them through a fine agricultural couutry The farmers are in good condition, and all the signs indicate thrift, peace and plenty. Some oi .the dwellers along the road have had an eye to adornments, and the traveller that-way will now and then see a gleaming white painted residence, surrounded by beautiful shades and shrub bery. Xow and then an eminence is reach ed from which extensive, beautiful land scapes are presented to the eye, jn them selves worth a ride : to go and see. The prettiest view4 may be had at too points near the late residence of lie v. J. Crim, now owned by Mr. II. C. Bost. All the nat ural scenery near the wall, as well as along theroad, is decidedly pleasant, particularly at this season of the year j and the trav eller may slake his thirst with the purest and coolest spirugs to be found any where this side the mountains.

V North Carolina Press Aiciatioi The Press Association met in the city of Charlotte last Tuesday at 12 o'clock, M., iu the IIll of the Hornet Fire Com pany. The President, Dr. II. E. T. Man- uiug, oi uie juaryiana MeUcal Journal, occupied the phair. Rev. Theo. Whitfield, of the Baptist church opened the conven tion with prayer. Mr. F. B. McDowell, then welcomed ihe association in an able and well timed address of some length, wnich was responded to by the President The regular) business of the Association was then gone into. We are sorry we can't give thfe proceedings, but space for bids. Invitations from Asheville, Greens boro, Taiborp' and from Dr. Elliotte of the Sparkling Catawba Springs, were ten dered the Association for their next annual meeting. The constitution was changed in several particulars. All arrangements for future meetings is to be made by the Executive Committee. This committee is elected annually. The following are the officers elected for the ensuing year : President, Col. Wm. L. Saunders, of Raleigh. Vice-Presidents, Col. Chas. R. Jones, of Charlotte, Dorsey Battle, of Tarboro, and J. S. Tomlinson, of Hickory. llecordmg Secretary, W A. Davis, of Uxlord. Corresponding Secretary, R. T. Fulghnm, ot Kaleigh. j Treasurer, f. F. Duffy, of Greensboro. Executive Committee, W. J. Yeates, Char lotte, R. M. ljurman, Ash'eville, R. T. Ful- ghum, Raleigh, T. K. Bruner, Salisbury, and J. P. Caldwell, Raleigh. Just after tjie regular morning session, the Association, by invitation, visited the residence of jCol. Wm. Johnson, where that most courteous gentleman had pre pared a festive board, which was highly appreciated by the fraternity. They then kindly shown by Col. Coles. visited the mint and were the most interesting points At 5 o'clock they visited the Caro- liua Military Institute, one of the best regulated and most thorough Institutions in the State Col. J. P. Thomas, the Principal, is ft. South Carolinian of the first order, and. has Droved himself worthy the confidence and esteem of every one. A bettef man could not be selected to guard the interests of the young and train them up to a noble standard of true nianhooijL After the students had gone through the drill, which rivals Uing- ham's in rootl training, the editors were invited iu to pirtake of refreshments. Col. Thomas made the visit most interesting aud pleasant. Next, the Association vis- itcd the residence of that veteran editor, W. J. Yeates, j where again refreshments were spread aid the visit made, pleasant to all, and doubly so to the younger mem bers of the Prjess. Ihe speech J of Col. E. S. Gregory, of Virginia, befoije the Association and the citizens of Charlotte in the Opera House, came fully up to the expectations of all who heard it. It was clear and forcible aud thoroughly interesting throughout. The Grand Banquet given by the city Press andafewjprominent citizens of Char lotte to the Association, at the Central Hotel, was aii affair long to be re membered by the Press of the State. The large dining Hall of the Central was full of tables wellj arranged aud piled with delicacies. Asjthey ate and were merry, there were many reports and a shower of corks, succeeded by toasts, and the night wore pleasantly ou till the cocks began to crow, then the festive hour(s) was ended. This gathering of the members of the Press iu "convention was a fruitful and pleasant one. We have learned some what of each other and the needs of re spective sections, and if our plans work as harmoniously as did our deliberations we may expect aj decided advancement in journalism and also in internal im provements. Vith singleness of heart and hand it wajs agreed to labor for the elevation of the! State Press, and also for the prom otiou of internal improvements in the State. No j two objects successfully carried out wquld do more to give the State that character and position to which she is entitled. The Executive Committee have not yet decided where will be held. ithe next, annual meetinsr Ample notice will be given and we hope io see a much larger atten- dence in 1878. BUSINESS LOCAIi COLUMN.

The MASON & HAMLIN ORGAN CO. have the honor to announce that the organs of their manufacture have been unanimously assigned "the FIRST RANK in the SKV EKAL REQUISITES of instruments of the class" bv the Judges at the CENTENNIAL EXHIBITION at Philadelphia, 187fi, and are the ONLY INSTUMENTS OF THIS GEN ERAL CLASS AWARDED THIS RANK. This is after the severest competition by the best makers, before one of the most competent juries ever assembled. They have also received the MEDAL, but, as i8 well known, medals of equal merit have been awarded all articles deemed worthy oi recognition; so mat it will De easy lor many makers to advertise that they have received "first medals." The differences in competing articles, and their comparative excellence, are recognized in the Reports of the Judges, from which the following is an extract : " THE MASON & HAMLIN ORGAN CO.'s exhibit of Reed Organs and Har moniums shows Instruments of the FIRST RANK IN THE SEVERAL RE QUISITES OF INSTRUMENTS OF THE CLASS viz.: Smoothness and equal distribution of tone, scope of expression, resonance and sinking- aual ity, freedom and quickness in action oi Keys ana Deiiows. wnn inorougn ness of wor manship, combined with simplicity of action."
