County' Treasurers will do well to examine the law passed by the last Legislature requiring them toxhibit a full, perfect and itemized statement to the examining Committee, of the use made of the public money received by them.

Mr. Kenyon, a northern gentleman who had recently established a private bank: in Newton, NC, took typhoid fever! after having nursed a'child sick of that ' disease, and whilejn the delir ium of the fever, leaped out of the up per story window and sustained inju ries which caused his death. His. body was taken North for burial. A ten thousand dollar soap factory is to jbe btiilt at Charleston, S. C, aud it is confidently expected that it will pay a good dividend.

Five ; bilities of the near f uture; mill dams were broken and the mills and machinerv of the Pee Dep, the Great Fdls, and the Midway, damaged. ; The Carolina Central railroad between Lilesville and Hamlet, was also badly broken up. The damage to property if estimated at $100,000. and five hundred fersons thrown ' out of em ployment. . The navy department has had to issue new proposal'. for ; building "the-J five new cj-u ism' provided for at the ! last session of Congress, because bid received for those first issued were all in accessqf tliet auoifnt appropriated. Iris fpnred that vessels of the rbiss idestred'eannot be built for the amounts stipulated by Congress, and that the matter will have to be referred back to that body for further action. We seem to have all sorts, of drawbacks in the building of our, new navy. The Wilmingtou Star says it is quite common for rice farmers in that sec tion to lose 10 per cent, of their crops by the depredations of the rice birds. Men are employed to watch the fields 'and drive away the birds by the use of guns, but the birds get their share of the crop for all that. The birds are getting their share of the grapes in this part of the State the catbirds and the robbins are the leaders in the steal not and English Sparrow seen among the vines. Chicago is in dead earnest in trying to have the Exposition of 1892 held in ithat city. We have a circular signed by ten of the leading editors in the city, in which they set forth at length the reasons why Chicago should be selected as the place. The hotel ac commodations are said to be ample for 150,000 visitors, to say nothing of 5,000 boarding houses. They claim every desirable advantage for such an occasion, and say there cau le an agri cultural and live stock exhibit there such as the world has never seen. The Navy department has received a cablegram from Rear Admiral Gher- ardi, commanding the North Atlantic squadron, asking that the New Anier can minister to Hayti be ent imiuwl iately as Legit iue had abdicated and HipK)lyte is now on top in that changeable island. The rench and English captains h ive placed them selves under Adminil Glieranli's onlers in case of any trouble at Port-au-Prince. Fred Douglass is the new minister. It is said that the Haytians object to Douglass as Minister; they want a white man. The pension list has heretofore re quired from $75,000,000 to 80,000,000 annually. That was enough to stag ger the people who have the burden to carry; but the demand will increase about one-half, or fifty per cent, under the present administration. It will.be rememlered that Mr. Cleveland fought against the corrupt gang who were continually trying to extend the pen sion. Commissioner Tanner will ask the next Congress for about $30,000,000 additional appropriations for this ser vice, and it may not stop at that. A pension list amounting to $110,000,000 twentyfive years after the war is an item worth talking about. A fearful riot occurred among a gathering of negroes in Sevier county, Arkansas, on the night : of the 25th. Tbey "had, been holding jolly gather ings in the woods near the little town of Lockesburg; and on Saturday night they were to have a grander time than ever, and for an inspiration a good supply of whiskey, was provided. A fght occurred among them in which a manj was fatally, shot, ind this seems to hare been the signal for- a general fight, in which pistols were freely used. Three men were killed and a number wounded, some of them fatally. ITJie women fled to get out of the. danger, and confusion i reigned the. men shot at each other without know ing who they shot. ; Mahone Nominated for Governor.

It wsts an excursion train that had on board a select company of distinguish ed persons; but of fifty-six, forty-one were either killejtl or wounded. Among the killed were.; Judge George Andrew, the most prominent:, lawyer in E ist Tehnessef T. Powers,' leading mer chant andformer President of the E.ist Tennessee Fire-insurance1 Corn- pane; Alex: mder Ueeder, leading noli tician whohas held many offices oE trust. The accident was caused by the bad condition of the road. Part of the train left the track and went down froai a, trestle. New Yorkers are still planning in regard to the proposed World's Fair, of 1892, in commemoration of the discov ery of America and the Star of the 25th canvasses the surrounding coun try iii the. vicinity of the city, settling down on some point north of the Har lem river, as the most suitable ground on which to hold it. Meantime, the Manufacturers' Uecord has obtained and published letters.from all the Gov ernors of the Southern States, and the Mayors of all the principal cities in the South, and many of the leading citi zens of that section, who with singular unanimity say that Washington, the capital of the country, is the place where the exposition ought to be held. Out of thirty letters on the subject, there is only one which favors New York, one for St. Louis and one for Chicago all the rest say Washington is the place for it. Thus the question of location seems to bo unsettled, and the New Yorkers a l.ttle too fast in their claim.' and preparations. The Twin-City Daily of the 2-tth August presents ' a list of premiums awarded to the exhibitors of fruits at the Fruit F air recently held in Win ston. There was a large number of exhibitors, and they took in every va riety of fruits, dried and green, can ned and preserved. The exhibit must have been very fine, and highly inter esting especially to those who have a taste for horticultural pursuits. Dr. G. K. Faust, of Graham, took the largest number of premiums of any one exhibitor. N. W. Craft, of Shore", was awarded $10 on the bjst aud largest collection of grapes. Special mention is made of the goods exhibited by the can nning factories of Messrs. Jenkins Bros., Salem; Hanes Co., Lexington:, G. L. Anthony, Vandal ia; and Dr. G. K.
