, On dit;thattne Supreme Court,
now in session, have decided to entertain

and that th$ opinion will be : unanimous.

years and not four.. So says the. Sentinel.
: The Sentinel says : Forty-two
convicts, up to the present time, have been
received into the penitentiary and put "to

The Eastern' 1 Intelligencer
speaks out in behalf of Washington, in
regard to the Wilson branch railioad.--This
may be in time, says t.he Standard,
but it was a grand oversight in not hav
ing Washington represented in the meet
ing held in Wilmington last" week the
subject is too important to the eastern cen
tre not to battended to. However, we are
glad that thx&rnteUigencer can see this mat
ter in the right light, and we copy its re
marks entire, giving those people the ben
efit of our circulation : "Let tbe people
of Beaufort county Temember that there
will be a railroad meeting in Greenville
on the 18th instant. We want to see
our old town and county well and
fully represented on that occasion. We
have as much, if not more, interest in the
success ot this enterprise, as Pitt or any
other county along the projected line. Let
them not forget, furthermore, that stock in
this road will bo a safe -and profiiblc In
vestment, paying'a round interest of six
per cent. if no, more. We have talked
about railroads, we have dreamed of rail
roads, we have, in. past years, made some
effort to get a railroad, and now that there
is a chance of realizing our fondest hopes,
let us cast aside all dull apathy, . and co
operate actively and energetically with
those who are moving in the matter.
Money will accomplish great . things, but
money without energy is worth nothing.
There is a brilliant future in store for us
if wc will but reach forth the hand and
grasp it. Let us up and bo doing." . , -. ( .
The Goldsboro'. Messenger
learns that Mr." John Bentori, an old citi
zen residing near Bentonsville, Johnston'
county, was attacked by two' vyhite men,
one night last week," wbilein. his own
house. One ot the men . presented a re

them about., twenty-five dollars in money

t From .a 'circular Btatemeht of
the financial condition of the North Caro

all sources, amounted to $344,067 17, and
and the current expenses for the same time
$173,988 ,92-leavingj a . nett amount of
$170,078 ,5. The. increase, of receipts

Female Diseases.
- Large numbers of women-t-m fact - almost
nine-tenths of the entire sex suffer from
some disease peculiar to females.
Da. Lawrence's Woxak's Fariin meets
with wonderful success, in curing them.
This fact should be widely known. If every
lady in the United States were to take one or
two bottles of the Woiiah's Fbibwd, they
would be repaid by a renetval of health and
strength.
It is a safe and reliable remedy, and is n

Messrs. Johnptoh A Laitghokitk:
Gentlemen The very high character of the
testimonials attesting the merits of your
"Vegetable Preparations 'Nolandine," in
duced me to test your " NOLANDINE PROP
ER "in a very desperate case of Hydrothorax
(dropsy of the chest,) combined with Ascities
(droDsv of tbe abdomen). The usual reme
dies known to our profession bad been most'
skillfully administered 'without producing
anticipated effects: The diseases yielded to
tbe action of your "NOLANDINE." I very
grateruiiy state tn&t my patient is now enjoy
ing the blessings of a restoration to good
health, and now, four months since admlnis-
tering your Nolandine, there is not a symp
tom of recurrence. . 1
1 had several opportunities of testing the
merits of your ' NOLANDINE for CHILLS
AND FEVER, -m cases which bad resisted the
usual remedies for months, and had the satis
faction tosce them entirely broken and per
manently removed after a course of your No
landine. -... -
I know that I will incur the displeasure of
some of the profession by departing from its
usages ; but candor and iacts compel me to
call attention of my professional brethren to
the invaluable properties of your preparation
andjrust that prejudice will not deter them
from their use. I have found the action of
your Nolandine on the liver and secretions
more than equal to calomel, which is an addi
tional recommendation. j . . i.'.
