Mr. ij. R. Randal), editor and
Washington correspondent of the
Augusta Chronicle, in the last num
ber of hia. paper says of the most
popular man in North Carolina:
"Few Senators have inmroved more
than Vance, in late vears. He used to read
his speeches from manuscript, and though
they were remarkable for wit and humor as
well as argument originally put, thoir fuSl
effect was marred by resort to the essayical
style or aiding the memory. During the
last session of Congress, however, he trust
ed more to bis native genius and inspiration,
with the. happiest results. His extempo
raneous speeches in debate were powerful,
eloquent and 'sonorous. They were also
salted down into snu&'sentenccs, avoiding
all repetition. Thd" Kentuckiau wearied
everybody by-his rehashing of the same old
thoughts, expressions, sentences and illus
trations ad nauseam, l ne Piortn uaroun
ian was ever fresh, sparkling and full of
novelty. We can say this with all the
more grace as ;w. did. not agree, at all
times, with his line of argument, and are
largely opposed to his economic views.
Senator ance is a great favorite with the
newspaper men. and deservedly so."
Vance never read his speeches often
until he had the very bad example of
the Senators to influence him. He is
recovering from the effects of "evil
communications," and grows in fame
as he grows in years and experience.

select one. for herself."

Petersburg Index-Appeal : Yes
terday Mr. W. -S. Hawkins, acting under
instructions of -U. Marshal H. S. Sprag
ein8, of North Carolina, swore out a war
rant before Commissioner Gallagher for the
arrest of John F. Hawkins, of Warrenton,
N. C. About eighteen months or two years
ago Hawkins was charged with the viola
tion of ths postal laws. The prisoner Haw
kins, we believe, is a native of Petersburg,
and is a printer by trade. He is accused of
having stolen $95 from T. A. St. Clair, Sr.,
while on a visit to this city some years ago.
The charge which the Government brings
against him is for opening letters addressed
to other parties, it is thought, for the pur
pose of robbery. He was not connected
with the "postal service. He was required
by Commissioner Gallagher to give bail in
the sum of $3,000, and on his failure to do
so was committed to jail. The county
court of Halifax, N. C... now in session, has
several criminal cases on its docket. Among
those that have so far been disposed of are
the following: Jennie Clark, colored, in
dicted for manslaughter; found guilty and
sentenced to the penitentiary for two years.
Pattie Thompson, colored, indicted for mur
der; convicted of manslaughter and her
punishment fixed at four months in jail,
The punishment was made light in conse
quence of the accused being in delicate
health, and having recently given birth to
a child.

Our Friends Remember
that we nold
ROYSTER'S CANDY
from the start at Thirty-Five Cents per pound,
but were forced to raise the price to Forty Cents,
and then to Fifty Cents, as Royster's trade in
ether portions of the State complained at the
low price we were charging .
We did not Intend to reduce this price, as
ROYSTER'S CANDY HAS ALWAYS 8TOD ON
ITS OWN MERITS. AND WILL BEAR COMPAR
ISON WITH ANY CANDY IN THE COUNTRY.
OTHER CANJ MANUFACTURERS, not con
tent with the custom they are receiving, have re
duced their best Candy to Forty Cents per pound,
which art, in turn, has induced us to REDUCE
THE PRICE OF ROYSTEK'S CANDY (Best and
Purest Mixture), for the present, to
35c per Pound, or Three Pounds for $1.
Of course there is no money in this for us, but
we will see if the old adage, "The fittrst will
survive," has any truth in it or not.
