At the last meeting of the Salisbury
district conference it was decided to
establish a high grade academy for
boys and girls some where in the district
aud a committee was appointed to re
ceive propositions from any place in the
district that would like to have it estab
lished there. Salisbury is the most cen
tral point and has superior advantages
in the wayof rail road facilities and iu
other respects, and it would be well for
some of our enterprising citizens to take
the matter iu baud and see what can be
done.
Everything that can be brought to Sal
isbury will bo a help and this institution
if it can be secured would have a good
moral influence on our community.

5ire and intention of the Execut
l9'U!Uee to make this ouc of the
Wveution'J ever held in the State.
Rev. A. J. Withcrspoon, D. D., Chap
lain of the Seamen's Bethel iu New Or
leans, La., was in the city Sunday aud
preached two sermons, one in the Prcs
byterian church Sunday morning and
another in t lie Methodist church Sunday
night. The Intter was a union service
and was attended by a very large con
gregation composed of all the denomina
tions in town. A number had to stand
up for want of room.
Dr. Withcrspoon gave the history of
the Bethel or Heme for Sailors iu the
.1 M . t III
great soutnern metropolis, mere is a
tmilding with 17 rooms in it, set apart for
chapels, reading rooms, &c. Preaching
for the sailors is had regularly, and Dr.
Withcrspoon related a number of con ver
sions that had taken place under his
ministry. .
The Doctor is very enthusiastic on the
subject of the betterment of sailors, "of
those who go down to the sea in ships
and do business on great waters. He
points with pride to such seamen as
Christopher Columbus and Paul Jones.
He says that there arc 3,000,000 sailors
aud seamen ou the oceans, lakes and
navigable rivers. He loves to dwell on
the characteristics of the seamen among
which are tirmness and bravery. It takes
greater bravery thau even a soldier poss
esses, says the Doctor, to be a sailor and
climb to the top of the mast ou a stormy
night when the ship is careening, and
being tossed to and fro at the mercy of
the waves.
When a bailor is converted the Doctor
says he sticks. There is no hypooraey
among the sailors. They arc very open
about all things. Dr. Withcrspoon men
tioned that tho conversion of the 3,000,
000 of seamen would solve the problem
of the conversin of the world.

have a general cleaning up time when
ESS out goes their name unless they
pony up.
Foi the bcnefitof those who are be
hind we give below the United States
Postal Laws relating to newspapers and
subscribers:
1. Subscribers who do not give ex
press notice to the contrary are consid
ered as wishing to coutinuo their subscription.
2. If subscribers order the di. -
continuance of their periodical the pul -
lislier may continue scudiug them until
all arrearages are paid.
ft. If subscribers neglect or refuse to
take their periodicals from the oHicc to
which they are directed they are held
responsible until they have settled their
bill and ordered them discontinued.
.4. If subscribers move to another
place and fail to inform the publisher,
and the papers are sent to the former
direction they arc held responsible.
5. Any person who receives a news
paper and makes use of it, whether he
ordered it or not, is held iu law to be
a subscriber.
6. If subscribers pay in advance, they
are "bound to give notice to the publishers
at the end of their time, if they do not
wish to continue taking it; otherwise the
publisher is authorized to send it ou and
the subserilier is responsible until express
notice, with payment of all arrears, is
sent direct to the publisher.
The new postal amendment has made
it a penal offense to refuse to pay for a
newspaper and the subscriber may lie
imprisoned for fraud,
