Mrs. Campbell met Williams at a church, just after the services, and shot and killed hiin. A great scandal and an extreme penalty paid for it a case in which outsiders are dumb. This is certainly a G. A. R. admin istration whatever else it may be. This organization has received every thing it asked for and it has not been at all backward in asking. In no ad ministration has it wielded the power it does now. This seems a little Queer when it is remembered that the war ended more than twenty five years ago. A. W. Shaffer, a carpet-bagger, gets the Raleigh Post Office over Loge Har- lis, a native Republican; one by the way wno has born the brunt of the Republican party and who deserves the ward he failed to get.

A hundrel and twenty North Caro lina school teachers will leave on 6th of July for a foreign tour. They will take in London and Paris and other prominent points abroad, and expect to have a good time for six weeks or two months. Is it not a good sign that our educational facilities are on the mend when so large a number are willing to make an expenditure of this character for the purpose of better fitting them selves for their duties as teachers? We are progressive educationally as wen as mutiKtriaiiv. A peculiar case, and one which makes a person think thatjthere is something wrong in the law, has just been decided in Virginia. A Mrs. Taylor who was ',iviii convicted of murder in the second de gree for poisoning her husband, and senteuced to five years in the peniteu tiary, has just been turned loose on the ground that the Judge before whom the case was tried, erred in instructing the jury that they could find the pris oner guilty of any degree of murder, as by the Virginia law killing by pois on is murder in the first degree. By the same statue, Mrs. Taylor cannot be tried again and is perfectly free.

Next to these bouses was: a street, the ouly oue nut vet cleared of i . debris, and on the opposite side was a wide stretch of ground tightly packed with frame buildings in all manner of decrepit attitudes. . Still farther above were some of the best preserved luild ings in the city. Had the wind carried the flame in the opposite direction fire would have de siroyed what the flood had left. As it was, the fire caused a veritable panic in the immediate neighborhood, as it envel oped one house alter another iu rapid succession. One of the abandoned buildings had bceu a hardware store and the explosion of a keg of powder in it sent the burning roof Hying iu fragments, thus in creasing the danger. Men were put to work smothering the bonfires that stretched across the open space, with earth, and in this manner cut on" the fire's line of com munication to the threatened building ! whose occupants were already moving; the remnant of their furniture. The bank ing of the bonfires with earth and the veering of the wind so that the burning embers were carried into Stoney Creek ended the danger in this direction. On the other side the fire met no op position until it had reaehed the ruin packed street. The militia and a gong of laborers worked hard at cleaning the street and then tore down a number of houses on the opposite side. By this time the streams of water from the fire engines had their effect and the fire was under control after burning for about three hours, aud leavingfrora twenty-five to fifty houses in ashes. The whole population of the valley turned out to watch the conflagration. aud so general became the belief that everything remaining would go up in smoke that in all directions people were loading their effects on wasons Dreoara- tory to fleeing to the hills. The inonev loss will be upward of $35,000. We3kly Weather Crop Bulletin. FOR THE WEEK ENDING FRIDAY JUNE 21 .
