manifest a proper appreciation of the ad
vantage extended to them in the facilities
provided for their education.

pHRE APPEARED IN THE STAR OF THIS
morning an advertisement dated Atlanta, May 38th,
and signed B. D. Cheshire, treating ol questions
beyond the knowledge of the undersigned, and of
no interest to any citizen of North Carolina.
' The malice prompting the publication of this li
bellous Card, so far from its original home, is so
self-evident that it canies its own antidote, and
places it at . once beyond the pale of respectable
criticism.
The undersigned believes that no one in this
community, not even the gentleman who has made
himself responsible for the publication of the li
bel, will doubt his assurance that the Kerosene Oil
sold at this Agency is always as we represent, and
that wo never sell asy thing under 110 degrees .
