' Col. Short. The Tarboro Guide pays a handsome and a by no means undeserved compii ment to a most excellent Igentleman, Col. H. B. Short, of Columbus county, when it nominates him for Lieutenant Governorjof the State.

" : The Guide says: " ' - - r ' .y 1 We enjoyed a visit on Tuesday from Col. H. B. Short, now ol Flemington, on Waccamaw Lake.

Wharton J,! Green. We rise tosav the State does need the ser Vices ot such men, and we j don't want to send them out of the btate to serve u. I Let's make him Lieutenant) Gov ernor. His knowledge of: parliamen tary usaires would well become the pre sidio r officer of the i Senate where he has served his . constituents and State so acceptably. . ' j Col. Short is admired wherever he Is known, and his circle of acquaintances covers the greater portion ol the: State. Amiable, polished, genial, witty, far sighted and able, he stands in the full stature, a well rounded man. i ' - ; By his own industry he has carved a large fortune out of the timber business, which, with his triends, he enjoys to the full. Charitable to a fault, his poor neighbors and laborers daily bless his bounty. He has converted Flemington from the abode of bat and swain p owls . , iii l : l : n into a beautiful village, and since his residence there of 14 years, Waccamaw Lake has become historic. - H. B. Short is the man for Lieutenant Governor. A Paiofal Injury. We are sorry to learn of a painful accident which befell Mr. J. Bakeri of this citv, on last Sunday night.
