Synod met on time and opend in

was largely increased by the night
trains; and this morning on, taking the
vote for the place of next meeting of
Synod, the result was as follows:
i For Fayettville.35; Wilmington, 5;
Concord,1 40.
So two facts were established by the
vote the large additional number of
delegates present, and Concord as the
place for the next meeting of Synod.
I he morning was chieliy occupied m
hearing reports, appointing committees
and making special orders for business
to come up hereafter mostly routine

Dr. J. W. Davis will deliver his lect

other words, that they had a line in con
templation, and that they must see
that out before they were ready to en
tertain a new proposition. Taking that
ground placed the Rowan delegation
in a sad plight the wind was out of
their sails they had gone to listen, to
say "yes, ' if you people intend to go
somewhere with your road, and you
want to come to Salisbury, I the people
of Franklin township and of Salisbury
are blind to no interest involving the
prosperity of their section and town:
they will help ; you may depend on
it. But no such answer" was needed :
"What do you propose to give us?"
they said. The delegates felt-that they
had. no authority to answer such a
question. The.mceting proved of but
httle importance; the only thing done
from which any results may be expect
ed was the calling together of the in
corporators to meet at South River, this
county, on the 17th. of Nov.
Election Frauds. It is alleged that
heavy frauds were perpetrated by the
Republicans in the recent Ohio elec
tions, apd several of the Democratic
clubs of Cincinnati have made up the
sum of 47,500 for the puporse of pros
ecuting the Chief of Police, who is ac
cused of failure in duty to arrest parties
accused of frauds. It is no new thing
for Republicans to corrupt the ballot
box. Tliey take to it like ducks take
to the Water. I et the Democrats lost
nothing: but rather made a gain on the
last year's election, when the Repnbli-

The Statesville Landmark
back at the Watchman thusly:
"In The Landmark office, a year or
two ago, Mr. T. J. Hunter, of Concord
township, this countv, saw a piece of
corundum the first ho had ever seen in
his life. Afterwards he found a strahge
rock on his farm; he remembered to have
seen one like it in The landmark officej
and thus he at once inentified it as corun
dum. Comparison was of some account
to him."
Of course, there are exceptions to all
rule, and it was of rules, or of the
Landmark's suggestion, which, were it
put into practice, would become a rule
that the Watchman was speaking. The
Landmark must, after consideration,
agree that the suggestion would not be
beneficial as a rule, and therefore not
practical. It does not appear that the
Jpndmarli can see through a stone
TOry clearly, in fact, it begs the real
point at issue if 'issue" may be used
m this connection. The real error may
as well be pointed out. It was in the
omission of the word "only.- The
sentence should have read: "Not one
an in a hundred, not thoroughly eon-
ersant with the subject, would be able
identify corundum with the aid of
a half dozen specimens by comparison
only."

The -Watchman thanks the Wil
mington Star for the exceedingly Tlat-
tenns compliment paid it recent
ly. To say that the Watchman is
"wisely and judiciously edited" is high
praise, and is appreciated, especially
when it eminates trooi the ba.t news-
apcr in the State.
A PROSPECT FOR ORGANIZED EFFORT.
Persuant to the Watchman's call, a
meeting of the citizens of Salisbury
gathered at the Courthouse on last
Saturday at noon. Hon. John S. Hen
derson was called to the chair, and T.
K. Brunei and Ii. Eames requested to
act as secretaries. The chair explained
the object of the meeting, which was-
to appoint delegates to represent Kow-
an in a Railroad meeting called to con
vene in Mocksville, on Monday the 10th
mstant, for the purpose of discussing
the possibilities of building a road to
connect the two towns indicated. The
Davie press had been most earnest in
appeals to Rowan to come over and
help, and indicating that the moneys
now appropriated to another road would
be turned toward Salisbury, should pro
per encouragement be given. The
chair, with the concurance of the meet
ing appointed the following delegates :
Wm. bmithdeal, A. H. rJoyuen, H. hi.
Robertson, S. H. Wiley, T. K. Bruner.
Theo. F. Kluttz, Col. V. N. Heijig, P.

On motion of T. K. Bruner, delegates
who could not attend, were requested
fo name their own alternates, and urge
such alternates to attend.

Davenport's past is well known to a large
number of people in Western N. C, but
in the present phase of its existence it is
a young shoot and deserves the sunshine
of patronage to enable it to spread it's
branches to the four winds and become a
giant institution of learning in N. C, if
not in the South. Lenoir might apprppri
tely be termed the portal to a lovely por
tion of our celebrated "Land of the Sky,"
and Davenport occupies aa eminence
over-looking this Arcadian village and
commanding an extensive view of the
encircling Hue hills with the lights and
shadows Tying so gracefully and lovingly
uponthem. An impression formed in the
village, would not suggest the rare beau
ty of one's surroundings at the College,
and even the fatigue of climbing the emi
nence on which it is built, does not fully
prepare one for the grandeur that bursts
in full force upon the visitor as he turns
at the main entrance and beholds the fair
vision.
"What scenes of high grandeur now loom to the
view
Northeast and southwest Is the region that's
blue
Arounrt aad afar the peaks will arlse-
And point to their builder who lives in the skies."
Aside from the feast of beauty that greets
and refreshes one at Davenport, the
thoughtful person atonce concludes that
such a location must be conducive to
health. Then after inspecting the large,
well ventilated rooms, so very tastefully
and comfortably furnished, he is more
than ever convinced that here, the pupil
may drink fully from the fountain of
health and thus suitably equip herself for
the exertion of a deep dive into the wells
of knowledge.
Last year (the first term of the school)
I am told, not a single case of sickness
occurred; and that the physician was in
the building professionally only twice,
and then only for a cold. In the list of
hygienic advantages Devenport possesses,
thte table deserves to be favorably men
tioned. The Principal seems to make it his duty
to see that the food is prepared in the
most digestible manner, and on the table
is fouud a nice variety of dishes.
Of course the main thing to be desired
in a College, isthe proper instruction, and
I do not see how any one could be dis
pleased with the course at Davenport
under the present corps of teachers. Mjr.
Sanborn (the President) after graduating
at a noted American College spent four
years investligating the methods pursued
in the best schools of Europe and in study
ing music at the Royal Conservatory at
Leipzig, at Burlin and at Vienna.
Mrs. Sanborn has charge of the vocnl
department and about her beautifully
trained voice top much could not be said.
She too, completed a thorough course at
Leipzig and has recently returned from
Berlin and Y ienna where she again studi
ed under the test masters. Her voice is
wonderfully powerful, clear and sweet
and reminds one of a mountain stream in
son at nam labor tor ten years. The
Judge, in pronouncing the sentence, re
minded him that his crime was the result
of idleness. The day has passed when
men can live on their family name. The
watchword of the. present is "work."
Our people look with suspicion upon liim
who seeks not to better Ids condition or
support himself either by brain or muscle,
and the spirit of the times demands that
the criminal be punished, whether born
in a mansion or in a negro's cabin. All
honor to Judge Clark and Solicitor Gallo
way, who have, by their adherence to du
ty, become a terror to evil-doers.
Plantations Submerged by a Tidal
Wave.
savannah, October 12.-A strong
northern gale, which was blowing all day
yesterday, caused a tidal wave in the
Savannah river at noon, and another at
10 p. m. The rice plantations are all sub
merged, the banks are badly broken, and
the crop is all under water. The loss is
estimated at from 60 to 75 per cent. Hutch
inson Island, opposite Savannah, is inun
dated, and all of the residents came over
to the city last night. The rice crop along
the Ogcechee and Satilla rivers is also
damaged, and many fields will be a total
loss. The heavy rain has flooded the
country south of here, and the track of
the Savannah, Florida and Western rail
road is washed out in several places. A
freight train ran into a washout near
Folkeston, and the engineer and fireman
were seriously injured. The Jacksonville
and Savannah express is also off the track
at Callahan.
