Closing" Exercisks dp CatawbI High
ScnooL.--The closing exercises of this
school, under charge of tbe Itevs. Clapp
and Foil, took place at Newton last Tues
day. Gov. Vance delivered tbe address,
which was practical aud to tbe point.
His theme was practical education. Gov,
Vance has been preaching this all impor
taut subject to the people of this State for
yearn, and to our knowledge, tbere is not,
iu the. State, a single institution designee
to fitji boy tbe a farmer or mechanic;
Ou the contrary, all are 'giving young men
what is known as a liberal education; for
wliich the majority of the people, have no
use; because tbe majority of the people
have to woik, and they want an educaj
tion to fit themselves specially for what
ever trade they propose to follow
Vance says you may spout latin : to a
mule all day "and he won't move, a
peg; but yell out 'git up" and away be
goes. Give the farmer boy an education
iu Agricultural Chemistry, and leave off
the Latin and Greek. We would like for
the Governor to have his ideas on this
subject published and we would be much
more pleased if the teachers would give
their attention to the matter. Let some
enterprising man start an institution of
the eb a rater described aud ho will find
t'.iat it will prove a success, both finau-
cialhvaud o-the jrreat cuod of the rising
population.
The young men who took pait in the
exercises showed that careful" and sound
instruction had been given them aud they
reflected credit ou themscWres aud their
preceptors.
Baud "Xo2," of this place, furnished
the music aud we believe pleased all
they say they were treated as good as the
Governor aud w ill remember their trip to

thanks to the Bicdnwnt Press, for its com

THE CINCINNATI SING. '
The May Musical Festival (the nation's
musical prule) has now passed into his
tory, and has become a thinji of vesterdav:
but ere the sod which now rests so light
ly over its silent tenement, is drv, the
exhalation of the roses that have sprung
up. aud blossomed to its honor thas filled
the air of St. Louis, and sent a halo of in
spiration to the hearts of her musical
devotees, aud soon she, too, is to have a
Musical Festival. Music, the pabulum
of the soul is the world's greatest civilizer.
Truly, "Music hath charms to soothe
the savage breast." It is this electric
w ire, when touched, "makes all mankind
kin." The baton of Rosini in the Acad
emy of Music at Leipzig re-echoes the
symphony of Beethoven under the baton
of Thomas in Springer Hall, and the na
tive language of Liszt and Schubert be
comes the language of our own Dexter
ami Cary.
Ciueiuuati, the Paris of America, is now
the acknowledged Alma Mater of Music,
art and science. Last week: the holy
communion was administered to her after
the baptism of the immortal Jlozart. The
orchestra waa perfect, as also was the
solos duets and quartets. Ouly one mis
take occurred in the chorus. " One young
man whoso soul was . overcharged with
musical Xitro Glycerine exploded,1 and
sent the tune flying up above the highest
seat iu the gallery. An able bodied boy
was immediately detailed to go and hring
it down, but at last accounts the afore
said seeker, the inspirational, had suc
ceeded in only reaching the foot of the
ladder upon which it had proudly perched
itself. After this accident everything
went on as merry as a marriage bell, aud
as harmonious as the sw eetest strains of
divine music could blend.
Xo citv in the Xew World has ever en
joyed feuch a feast. May the name of our
munificent philanthropist, Keuben It.
Springer be engraven iu letter of gold
upon tho tablet of the heart of every lover
of music, and may the friction of time's
Wheels serve only to polish his uame and
make it shiue brighter and brighter unto
the perfect day. Cleaveland was ably
represented in our Medical Academy and
at the Musical Festival. Alas! we looked
in vain for the Hon. Chas. Price, of Salis
bury, hoping to enjoy the pleasure of giv
ing him an airing on Spring Grove Ave
nue and Eden Park (for sometimes disci
ples of yEsculapius aire as vain as disci
ples of Gamaliel.) Xo place of its size in
the State represented as much beauty and
talent as Euclid. In fact all of the cities
and provinces in the west seut hi
creditable representatives to
both the
State Medical Society and May Musical
Festival. Xo such outpouring of talent
beauty aud wealth has ever been seen iu
this city lefore, but these things must
needs be, and the cud is not yet.

THE SUX, THE SLANDERER OF THE
SOUTH.
(From Tarboro suotherner.)
7or Southern men can contribute to
the circulation of the paper and pecuni
ary beuefit of so bitter a South hater as
Chas. A. Dana of the Xew York Sun is a
mystery to us. We do not believe in
carrying the doctrine of lieking the hand
that despitefully uses yo i too far. We
publish two extracts from tiiat niaglig
nant sheet and ask our readers, in all
candor, if they can conscientiously sup-
j port it. Dana has alwayshated the South,
illewa assistant Secretary of tli3 War
! under Mr. Stanton, and U'eause ho failed
I to ret a desired appointment, turned
a,r;lj ,lst (.J rant and all tho powers that be
ever since
lie is totally without princi
ple, unscrupulous blatherskite whose
pen is pointed against every one not a
worshiper of his immaculate self.
He has never .said a w ord for the South,
except it was his own personal interest
to do so. Expecting to get oiTice under
Greely, he sup-ported that great man and
became a warm advocate of Reform and
Reconciliation. For the .same reason he
espoused the cause td" Tildeu. But these
extracts show his sincerity. He "would
'rather support Beast Battler than a South
ern democrat."
The. New York World comes ably to
the rescue td the South and deals the Sun
bad blows. If you must take a North
ern paper, whv not take the World, but
do not subscribe for the miserable South
hater aud slanderer as the New York
Sun. These extracts speak for them-,
sel ves :
tiii:"slx"i)i:ci. nr.s fuu ui ttleu auaxst
"tiik south kun kkukls."
(From the X. Y. .Sun May 13tii.)
There are a few former rebels in Con
gress who, if they have ever heard th
war is over, seem to think the South was
the conquerer ; and there are a few North
ern doughfaces id Congress of such ab
ject natute ihat they prostrate themselves
to the manes of the departed institution
of slavery, and remembering the despotic
sway it once held, conceive that its very
ghost may lift some of their number, more
fortunate than the rest, into the White
House !
Vain and fatal delusions! It is said
the Democrats will start iu the contest
in ISSO w ith all the old slave States solid
in their favor, and that they are certain
of the comparative small additional num
ber of electoral votes requisite .to a ma
jority. That makes easy reckoning. It
is a simple sum. . Anybody can do it.
There happens, however, to be anoth
er, just as easy and just as simple. If all
the old Slave States can combine, so can
all the old free States. The only thing
needed for this is au occasion, made plain
to . the comprehension of the masses.
Then there is this difference: All the
old slave States combined still require
help to elect their candidat ; whereas
the old free States combined need no
help, but in themselves constitute a ma
jonty, and can elect their candidate with
out extraneous aid. The Democratic
candidate in l?r was tainly elected, co
we maintain, on the evidence, at all
events. Certain old rebels in the Demo
cratic party traded off tha election to the
friends of Mr. Hayes. They connived at
the fraud by which Haves was counted
in, anil they now couspire with their
Northern doughface Democratic allies to
block the way to au investigation which
would uncover and expose the great
fraud. Do men who conduct themselves
in this way suppose that the mass of the
Northern Democracy are so base-liorn, so
absolutely waufing in self-respect, as to
continue to act, to cooperate with them
What guarantee can these treacherous
men give that they would not again sell
out the party on tho heels of a second vic
tory ?
The North the old freo States will
not loose sight of the fact that the Demo
cratic candidate who, after he had been
lawfully elected, was sold out by South
ern rebels, was pledged agaiust the pay
ment of rebel war claims. It is evident
that this now constitutes the greatest
barrier to an investigation which would
'be liable to put Hayes out and Tildeu
in.
It is all very well to talk sentinieutal
Iv about burying the dead pai-t, only we
want the rebellion buried at tho bottom
that is all. !
We regard the question of patting an
end to the election frauds of 1870 as the
supreme political question of the times.
We are therefore for those who nro witlT
us on that issue, and against those who
are agaiust us. If a pronounced Republi
can like General Butler or Senator Howe
should take the lead in exposing these
frauds and destroying their fruits we
would support him for President in 1880
in preference to any Democratic candi
date who opposed to the invesgation or
lukewarm about it.
The next Presidential election is not
yet decided.
AN LXJUST INDICTMENT OF THE SOUTH.
(From tho X. Y. Sua May 13th.)
What the slaveholders rebellion failed
to achieve by force to-day stauds accom
plished by fraud. The Govemtment of
the United States, wliich the Southern
armies were unable to overthrow, has
been underminded by corruption.
It is not surprising to liudsomeof thoss
who were most active iu the futile at
tempt to destroy the Government by arms
now delviug under its foundations with
the devices of fraud. It is quite con
sistent for various Southern rebels, now
ycleped Democrats, to bolster up Hayes in
the office of President. There is no other
way they could do so much to destroy
the Government against which they once
openly appeared in battle array, and
which there is ot late too much reason to
believe they still regard with feelings of
hatted in this crisis extremely ill con
cealed. :
Those Northern Damocrats who look
to au alliance with these former rebels of
the South as their own road to political
promotion naturally but basely go with
them in resisting an exposure of the
Presidential frauds. These modern ser
viile lollowets of the determined South
ern conspirators had their prototypes iu
the Xorthern doughfaces of the slavery.
The people see into the true condition
ot things. The day of retribution will
come
ANOTHER CHURCH ORGANIZED.
A meeting has just closed at the Meth-f
odjst Church in this place, conducted by
Rev. A. P. Smith, D. D., of Dallas, aud
Rev. (i. W. Boggs, the Evangelist of East
Texas Presbvterv.
During this meeting a Presbyterian
Church was organized in connection with
the Southern General Asscmby, cousist1
ing of twelve members, two of whom
Mr. L. V. Brown and II. W. Devault
were ordained and installed as ruling El
ders. Mr. D. R. Long was appoiured as Trus
tee, to receive and hold any property
which mav b.' given for the beuefit of this
organixation.
We take this opp-irtuuity of expressing
our thanks to the Pastor and members of
the Methodist Church for the use of their
house of worship.
Wc hope those, who belong to this
branch of the Presbyterian Church, who
may be coming into this community, will
lenoit themselves to tho above named
Elders, as we expect to have preaching
from time to time. B.

GOOD DIGESTION.
"Give ns this day our daily bread," ami good
medecine to digest it, is both reverent and hu
man. The human stomach and liver are fruit
ful sources of life's comforts; or, disordered and
diseased, thev tingle misery along every nerve
and through every artery. The man or woman
with good digestion see beauty as they walk,
and overcome obstacles they meet in the rout
ine of life, where tire dyspeptic sees only gloom
end stumbles and growls at even imaginary
objects. Tlie world still needs iwo or three
new kinds of medecine before death can be per
fectly abolished; but that many lives liavo been
prolonged, and many sufferers from Liver dis
ease, Dyspepsia and Headache, have been cur
ed by Merreli.'s Hepatike, is no longer a
doubt. It cures lIdohe in twenty minute,
and there is no question but what it Hthe most
wonderful leovery yet mane in meoieai ,
science. Those afflicted with DiUiousness and j
Liver Complaint should use Merkell b lltr
