The young folks of this town without regard to color or previous condition, had a livelytime Christmas, and no mistake.

The body of Miss Turlington was found this evening about 2 o'clock at a point a bout one mile and a Quarter west of Cary, near the residence of Mr. Wiley Boughcom be. The body was found! by a negro man earned Prank Marsh, in a niece of woods about one quarter of a mile south of the North Carolina railroad and about the same distance from the country road leading from Raleigh to Durban?. It was found lying on its back, with hands crossed on the breast and one bullet siiot through the head.

Capt. James Crawford, of this vicinitv, has sustained a heavy loss in hogs by cholera, and the disease is still diminish ing his herd. "Copperas, charcoal, wood-. ashes and turpentine are to some extent worm destroyers,"atid may be given to either growing or fatteninglhogs," says a writer in the N. C. Farmer. The hog cholera is believed to be caujsed by woiims or parasites, and anything that will de stroy them without injury! to the hogs may be given. For the Watchman. j On Friday, Dec. 24th, inst., at each of the churches of the Bethel pastorate, Rowan county, we had our Christmas tree services. It was a pleasure to the pastor to be present and to conduct the exercises at two of the churches, viz : St. Paul's and Bethel ; and we would have enjoyed very much meeting the good people and childrennround the Christmas tree at Christ's church, but were hinder ed by heavy rain during the evening. At these services of course the children were but iu full force, to be made glad by receiving the many presents from friends and loved ones. It does the heart good to go into a large congregation and see so many bright eyes looking so intently upon a Christmas tree. Certainly seeing the children rejoice is sufficient in itself to repav us for all nec essary trouble and expense-. And we know of no better way than this, to in terest and encourage the children. And it is the duty of christians to take care of the ".Lambs of the Flock," and to co-operate with the pastor in all his efforts to attract, please, and draw them, for if a congregation refuses to do this, it will soon have a blank history. The interest thatr is taken in the children to day will be the power of the church in the future, and will also tell on the eter nal shore when Jesus maketh up His Jewels." In this connection it gives us pleasure to state that most of our people seem in terested in the Sunday school work, and therefore it was no great tax upon them to give a suitable present to each of the 450 Sunday school pupiis in the charge. Leaving them still m a condition of heart ana purse to remember tne parsons family with quite a number of handsome presents. from the tree in St. Paul church the pastor's wife received a beau- Mlul purse well ulled, ana is now puz zling ua with the ouestion as to the best investment to make of her money. Also this congregation sent its annual load of provisions to our door, while the Bethel people manifest their appreciation in many tangible ways from time to time. We mention these things because they are given not to make up a deficiency iu salary, but as a token of kind christian regard, and for this season we appreciate them all the more. C'A. Rose. Zeb, N. C. Dec. 27th, 1886. were near Momsville. A messenger has been dispatched to notify the searching party that Miss Tin Ungtonfs body has been found. Marsh was not searching for the body when he found it. He had started over to Mr- Boughcoinbe's on business. G. W. Goess. The place is by no means-isolated, houses being in sight in in two directions, and it is a matter of the greatest surprise that the spot should be chosen for the commission of such a horrible crime It appears that Bingham had driven over the road and through Morrisville as before stated, going through that village at about 12 o'clock m., and that he had taken a by-road to the left of the main road, one mile beyond that place, making, a circle outinuallv to the left until he reached the main road near Cary a second time, then turned from the left of the main road again; goins about forty yards into the woods when he stooped and tied his horse. This fact was ascer tained by the marks made by the horse in stamping Ids fore feet. The hat and reti cule of Miss rurh-igton were hanging on the bouf-h of an oak tree at that ix'int. Signs seen here indicate that the young jumped from, the buggy, pursued and over look tier, dealt ner some violent blows on her left cheek, knocking her senseless and then shot her through the' head. Ttae pis tol was evidently very close to her head when fired, her face and her hair being badiy scorched by the powder. Right here were two old rails between which was a large blood stain. From here she was dragged for about fifty yards further into woods, as was evidenced from the particles of fur from her cloak, having been caught by the twigs and brush between the spot and the place she was found. THE BODY AS DISCOVERED. When found the cuff on her right arm was pulled down over her hand and was stained with blood, indicating that she had thrown herband to head when the fatal shot was fired. Her muff was near her left side. There were four rings on her fingers and a necklace around her neck. Her Clothing had not been torn and was in good order. A part of her hair had fallen down and had apparently been pushed into the coil by some one after she had been killed. She seemed to have buen carefully placed upon her back and hands crossed upon her breast and she was lying upon a slight incline, the head being" on the higher por tion and towards the. north. It would seem from the careful arrangement of the body that the maddened and frenzied lover after having committed he horrible Crime realized his inexpressible inhumanity and had as a last and forever lasting farewell to the woman he love'.i best on earth, bestowed every tender caress and token of love opon her that was left iu his power. The coroner went up to Gary last night toView the remains. It is understood on good authority that the body will be brought here on thh 8.45 train and that the inquest will be held here at 10 o'clock. . ; DR. R. P. SNEAD, Physician and Surgeon ' SALISBURY.

ORES BY l I The Hair May Be Preserved To an advanced age, in its youthful freshness, abundance, and color, by the use of Ayer's Hair Vigor. "When the hair is weak, thin, and falling, this preparation will strengthen it, and improve its growth. Some time ago my wife's hair began tojcbme out quite freely. She used two bottles of Ayer's Hair Vigor, which not only prevented baldness, out also stim ulated an entirely new and vigorous growth of hair. I am ready to certify to this statement before a justice of the peace. H. Hulsebus, Lewisburg, Iowa. n two ocoasions, during the past twenty years, a humor in the scalp caused my hair Ao fall out.. Each time, I used Ayer's' Hair Vigor and with grati fying results. This preparation checked the tyair from falling, stimulated its growth, and healed the humors, render ing my scalp clean and healthy. T. P. Druinmond, Char lest own, Va. About five years ago my hair began to fall out. It became thin and lifeless, and I was certain I should be bald in a short time. I began to use Ayer's Hair Vigor. One bottle of this preparation caused my Hair to grow again, and it is now as abundant and vigorous as ever. C. E. Sweet, Gloucester, Mass. I have used Ayer's Hair Vigor for years, and, though I am now fifty-eight years old, my hair is as thick and black as when I was twenty. This prepara tion creates a healthy growth of the hair, keeps it soft and pliant, prevents the formation of dandruff, and is a per fect hair dressing. Mrs. Malcom B. Sturtevant, Attleborough, Mass.
