Durham, of this town, as Pres ident of the N. C. State Dental As sociation. ' We read all but a page or so, and with real pleasure. It is written in a graceful, ornate style and is instructive and pleasing. It reviews the j progress of Dentistry from its beginning and sets up some strong claims for it that will be new to the unprofessional reader. ; He claims among other things, that it is to the dental profession that anas- thesia owes its existence. The ad dress is unusually well written and is highly creditable to the Doctor and his profession. We see it announced that Messrs. J ulian S. Carr, J. W. 'Alspaagh and Walter Gray have"agreed to pay the deficiencies of salaries of the Profes sors at Trinity College for three years. If the preachers and other laymen $o not manifest more interest in Trinity than they have manifested heretofore, the College will collapse after the three years have ended. It is generous in the three named to as sume so much responsibility, but it is not creditable to the 100,000 Methodists in the State that the Col 1 ege is not thoroughly manned and supported. . The New York Times has a theo logical editor who thinks he knows it all. His last is to declare "the doc trine of eternal punishment a mon strous and hideous lie." That fel low will wake up some sultry morn ing and find out his egregious mis-r take. Sam Jones tells of a hard looking old soak who replied to Bob IngerBoll when he said there was no hell; "Be mighty sure with your proofs, Bob, for there are a great many of its' who are depending on ye."

At 9 :10 o'clock last evening Mr. William' Henry Jones died at his residence, corner of Fayetteville and East Cabarrus , streets. He was one of Raleigh's oldest and most valued citizens. He was born near Louis burg, Franklin county, in November, 1817. He married a Miss Mary.C Nixon, of Wil mington, December 21, 1847. She died October 26, 1878. Raleigh hai no cleverer gentleman. He was the cashier of the old Bank of Cape Fear at Raleigh. 8 tar. When the legislature passed the bill appro priating $30,000 for the payment of pen sions to disabled Confederate soldiers and widows of soldiers, it was estimated that there were 1,000 of all in the State. This was regarded as an outside estimate, 800 being deemed . nearer the exact figure. But it was a poor estimate. Auditor Ro berts yesterday remarked to a reporter that thus far he had sent out 8,000 blank forms of application. The nnmber of applicants is apt to be four thousand. Dr. R. B.

' Tin General Assembly of North Carolina do enact: Section 1.

Aeeom plUnlag, : t- :.j.;:-.VK- .. . j " A day 4r two since we paid avisit to Capt. a,.W. Nobles' vineyard, a short dls-i tance from this city on the old, New Berne road. We found his vines loaded with tempting bunches of luscious grapes, the most of them on the eve of turning. The vines are much fuller than last year. and his crop will consequently be much larger, it is worth a-walk oi ten miles to see this vineyard. Everything is. done by and under the immediate supervision of Capt. Nobles, and it is done regularly and systematically. The long rows of vigorous and healthy ; vines, struggling upward with their heavy weight of - delicious' fruit, are as atraight and regular as the lines t'a-Tegunent 6t soldleEL dtSit ing for a critical inspection. He has about forty-three thousand vines in all. fifteen thousand of which are now bearing fruit, besides which he has a large num ber of cuttings. In a year or two he expects to have nearly fifty thousand vines bearing fruit. In April last he received seven differ ent varieties of vines from California, the consignment embracing twenty-five of each variety, which made a total of one hun dred and seventy-five vines. This number he increased by the process of grafting to two hundred and fifty vines, which are now growing vigorously and actually bearing grapes. He also recently received through Mr. C. F. Bissinger, six different varieties from Germany. We do not remember the number of each, but he has increased.it by grafting to two hundred vines, which are doing finely. Capt. Nobles.is rapidly increasing the ca pacity of. his vineyard. He has plenty of and, and is of the opinion, after thorough experiment, that none better adapted to grape culture can be found anywhere. He is an intelligent, energetic, progressive far mer. He is also ambitious. There is said to be a man in California who has ten thou sand acres of land in grape vines, which he is claiming to be the largest vineyard in the world. When Capt. N. has ten thou sand and one hundred acres in vines his ambition will have been gratified. Under the brow of a hill on Capt. No bles' grounds, about three quarters of a mile fiom the road, is one of the most delicious springs of water which it has ever been our fortune to sample. It is well shaded, and on the hill overlooking it is a bench where a good rest and "cool off" can be had after a long tramp through the vineyard and orchards. There is a tiny stteam'of dear water which escapes from the spring and meanders through the low shrubbery and finally loses itself in the denser growth not far distant. Along one side of this little streamlet Capt. Nobles placed the moss which came from Germany around the vines, and also the small willow throngs and a delicate vine with which they were tied; and moss and willow and vine have already become domesticated in their adopted home and are looking as green and vigorous,, no doubt, as before they left their native beds in the fatherland The German moss and the native moss cling to the bank side by side, and there is but little difference in the appearance of the two specimens. MAYOB?8 COURT. Caeea for Investigation Yesterday The only important case before Mayor Hall yesterday morning was that of Gil bert Hendricks alias Gilbert Hadley, ar rested on Saturday night on the charge of the larceny of a pair of shoes from the store of Messrs- George R. French & Son. The evidence was to the effect that the ac cused looked at a pair of shoes which did not exactly suit him, when he was shown another pair, which he purchased and paid for and placed them in a basket he had with him." Directly after he left the store the clerk who waited on Hadley missed from the counter the pair of shoes which the latter had refused. He looked into the box where they belonged and they were not there. Then the clerk knew they had been stolen. He followed Hadley to the stove of Mr. B. Solomon, which the latter entered, and the clerk there waited patiently until the man had made his purchases and was about to leave, when he charged him with the theft of the shoes. Hadley denied the charge; upon which the clerk lifted the lid of the basket and there lay the missing pair of shoes, which were readily identified by some peculiarity about the sole. The clerk arrested him, but he resisted. He got him as far as .the door, however, when Officer W. T. Williams, Sof the police force, appeared and Hadley was delivered into his custody and taken to the guard hous e . Hadley was given the privi lege of testifying, and acknowledged that the missing shoes were in his basket, but said he was drinking, pretty freely Satur day night and could not imagine how they got there. "If I put them in the basket, said he, "I didn't know when I did it" If he can- satisfy a jury to that effect he will be all right. To give a chance : in that direction the Mayor ordered him to give bond in the sum off 75 for his appearance at the next term of the Criminal Court, failing in which he was turned over to the Sheriff and sent fo jail. Henry Richardson, colored, arrested pn suspicion, said he was from Florence, S. C. It appeared from the testimony that two or three boxes had been broken open in the box cars at the W. & W.

In this we have found on examination that the demand for office is so much greater than we had supposed that we find it impossible to do justice to all. Therefore, we have concluded to open a relief office in this city with the following plan: 1. A full list of office applicants; 2. A correct record of party work done by each; 3. All applicants found worthy to be divided into four relief?, which shall go on duty in regular order. First relief to draw no pay for six months, and only half pay for the other six months; second relief to draw no pay 'for four months, and only two-thirds pay for the next eight months; third relief to take the place of the second relief at the end of two years, and draw only half-pay for a year; when the fourth relief comes in, with full pay and amounts due to the first, second and third reliefs. All applicants have concluded this to be the most equitable way to settle this most mixed question oi falling office. JfRO .BONO PUBLICO.
