I nkantu IDK. A case of infanti

Ik rc. A young ngro woman and her
uioii.er. livir.sr on the premises of
Major ( ieo. Collins, the son-in-law of
Mr. Paul Cameron, were the guilty
pir:it. The Srntunl of yesterday
evening g'vet the following, particu-lar-i
of thit crime:
A young n-vro woman was found
iu her cabin, her neck tied with a
rix' t the bed post, nnd the only
words she said were, "Take me out
(uick, or mammy will kill me." She
Oted sxn after the was removed, but
her death if-thought to have occurred
more from the elhVti oT childbirth
than from st ranulation. Major Col
m immediately had search made to
fh.d the child, the woman's mother
declaring there had leen no child
born, end there was no use In look
ing for it. A barrel of ashes stood at
thedo w with a hen's nest on top and
three eggs in the ncst.and as the party
approached it the old negro woman
sung out. "come away from my hen's
nest, don't bother alo-.g with it!"
and thit excited their sutpiciou and
thev searched in the ashes for the
child, the old woman all the time
making a great to do about it, but no
'laid did they find, until Major Col
lint rcsolv-d to empty the barrel,
and turning it over the dead negro
baby rolled out from the bottom and
itt arm and neck were found both
broken. The woman was carried to
llilisboro, and is now in Jail."'

RALEIGH. N. C. TUESDAY MOfcNING. APRIL 6. 1875
Anna Dickinson. On Thursday
evening, the 8th inst., Miss Dickin
son will make her first and only ap
pearance in this city at Tucker Hall.
Her subject "Joan of Arc" is spoken
of so highly by the Richmond (Va.)
press that we feel warranted in urg
ing our citizens to assemble in force
to hear her. The Richmond Dispatch
is slow to praise, but we make the
following extract from its comments
on Miss Dickinson's appearance in
that city :
"Miss Dickinson is not an advocate
of woman's rights. She cannot be
accused fairly of advocating any such
thing.
"It is true she is a politican ; it is
true that she once advocated the abo
lition of slavery ; and it is equally
true that she stum ped North in the
last Presidential campaign against
Grant, and to-day opposes the iniqui
ties of the Civil Rights bill. Her
mission to the South is not that of
an enemy, but a friend. This was
her avowal last night ; and can it be
doubted when it comes from the lips
of a woman whose every word has
been as chaste and as refined as Ihe
most fastidious in our midst could
desire.
"Anna Dickinson is bej-ond all
doubt a pure-minded woman, and the
record of her good deeds which are
nowhere disputed attest the truth of
this assertion. She is modest, retiring
and graceful in her manner, aud yet
a striking-looking lady; and what
ever may be the sensational feelings
which possess her heart, there are
many good traits iu her character
which are stamped upou her face,
and which show themselves in the
thoughts which she utters
"On the evening of her first lec
ture she wore a black silk dress with
a Yak-lace over dress. Her hair,
which is jet black, was cut short, and
curls hung pretti about her grace
ful head. she had on u pair of gold
bands, and wore around her neck a
gold chain, to which was attached a
simple g'ld cross. Upon her left
hand she wore two beautiful diamond
rings, which sparkled and attracted
the eyes of her audience, even if her
personal appearance didn't."
A Cu aki t.mu.k Act and Irs Rk-r-ci.T.s
A contemporary thus truth
fully portrays the work of an editor:
"The gooQ-natured editor, having
had a good night's rest ami a good
cup of coliVe for breakfast, comes to
his (.liU'e in the morning and says:
"I'll do at lea-t one good and chari
table act to-day." Forthwith he
writes: "John Smith is by far the
ablest inun in the entire northwes
tern s'.-;io!i of this great country ;''
and there lie stops ; hut it is enough.
The street lakes John up,
and he is pointed out as " the
ablest man;" the press every
where clips the paragraph and re
produce it, and the editor's exchan
ges come pouring in upon bim with
it, and hit "ablest man" is n made
man. Thus is greatness manufac
tured and the world lil.ed with me
diocrity through the good nature
and god breakfast of some poor,
plodding and unknown journalist,
w ho has ei haps, never seen "John
Smith,-' an I never will see him, or if
he should happen lo meet the in: n
he has boosted into place, ten to one
he would pa-s him by uni-.otlecd,
with a lofty contempt for the very
insignificant and vulgar source of his
succsss. This is the way, however,
we thrust greatne and buckle for
tune on the backs of the uuwoithy
s-nd the worthy alike."
Thk Pkis3 Convention. The
State Press A -social ion will meet in
WihhiiigU-n Miis year on the 11th of
May. The Wilmington Journal lias
this to sny of thi approaching session
of this body :
Th third a "unl Convention of
the North Carolina Press Association
w ill assemble i:i this city during the
second wtek in May. We suppose
two-thirds of the whole editorial fra
ternity of the Stat will visit Wil
mington on that occasion. Repre
senting, as they do, the entire North
Carolina reading populati n, and
being themselves a lody of intelli
gent and influential gentlemen, we
know they will receive a warm wel
come to our city.
"We feel quite sure that their re
ception and treatment while here will
be such as to insure a favorable im
pression of Wilmington. There are
prejudices existing in some portions
of the State to our city, which have
too frequently exhibited themselves
to our injury, in the legislation of
our General Aembly. We will
probably never have so good an op
portunity to be introduced to the
people of the whole State, and make
friends throughout the length and
breadth of North Carolina."
Wake Scpekiou Cm nr Open
ing Day. The Spring term of Wake
Superior Court, Judge Watts presid
ing, ope!;cd yesterday iu this city.
His Honor "delivered his "usual
charge" to the Grand Jury, minus
the spiritualistic portion. The day
wa occupied principally in organiz
ing the ourt aii'! preparing the busi
ness of the session, only orte case
I cing heard, that of Geo. Mass--n-burg,
col . charged with lar-s-uy. He
was acquitted.
There art; some cases oil the
!: Uerei i ! dockets, 1! of which are
what : - known as the poll oix indict
ments, or parties indicted 'or failing
to list their jxill. These iattcr ca.-cs
will come up for hearing ntxt Mon
day. '1 l.c Court will to-day continue
the consideration of the j d! cases,
and on Thur.-day the only capital
case, that of R.ilaam Green, col.,
c harged with breaking into the resi
de i.e-e of Col. L. Stephenson, will
be heard. The bastardy ca-ts, some
thirty in number, have been set for
Thursday week.
FhAG FOR THE RAEEIGH LIGHT
Infantky. A beautiful blue siik
Hag for the Raleigh Light Infantry,
manufactured in New York at a cost
of some 150, h:us arrived, and is now
on exhibition at Weikel's. On cue
side of the flag is a shield bearing the
date of the organization of the Com
pany, while on the other side the
coat of arms of North Carolina stands
in bold relief. The means for the
purchase of this flag was raised prin
cipally hy subscription on the part of
the citizens, and we understand it
will be formally presented to the
Company to-morrow afternoon. The
Light Infantry Company is now ful
lv under way, is in every way
equipped, welt officered, and is com
posed of many of the first young men
In the ctyyY and' they will be second
to but few companies at the Centen
nial Celebration at Charlotte in May.

Two of the oldest and most respec

Lewis, are lyiDg ill at their resi
dences. The Petersburg Tobacco Mar
ket. The Petersburg News of yester
day says : I
There has been very little doing in
aaything except those samples which
are in such soft order as not to be
safe to hold longer. The general tone
of the market is somewhat better,
and any sample fit for shipping
would find ready sale at full prices.

The Proposed New Baptist
Church. The Baptists of this city
determined on Sunday to erect a new
church, and committees were ap
pointed to obtain subscriptions for
this purpose. It is undersood that a
large amount has already been sub
scribed, and a church will bi built at
a cost of some $30,000 or $40,000. The
location for this new building has
not yet been selected. We are pleased
to chronicle this evidence of in
creased prosperity of this denomina
tion in our midst.

A New York Herald correspond
ent has recently visited the old man
sion iu Philadelphia formerly occu
pied by the dead tragedian Edwin
Forrest. It is now offered for sale
and has beeii partly dismantled,
Here, in his old library, are two large
photographs, life size one of Forrest
in citizen's dress, the other as Lear,
holding his sceptre of straw, and
saving. "Aye, every inch a king !"
Around the wal. there is a collection
of PI otographt of Forrest, in all of
his chaiacttrs, imperial size. He
took a great deal of pride in these,
anil when the Photographs were
printed he persisted in buying the
negative, so that they could not be
reproduced. Here he is in all his
characters Lear, Hamlet. Othello,
Holla. Claude Melnotte, Jack Cade,
Metnmora, Spartacus, the Broker of
Bogota, and so on down the list.
Here, on a table is the glass casein
which he kept his acting ewords ;
for they are a noted collection. The
first is Richard the third's sword,
with themonoram "J. P. K." engra
ved upon it, for John Philip Kemble,
to whom itoiiginally belonged. Then
there is a Roman sword, with "Tal
ma" engraved upon it. This was the
properz of Talma, thegreat tragedian,
and, who woie it in his Roman parttJ
and the tradition is that he received
it from the Emperor Napoleon, his
friend. And her also is a bowie
knife, the first ever made, and pre
sented to Forrest by Colouel Bowie,
the inventor of that interesting em
blem of American civilization. Here
is a case that belonged to George
Washington, and another signifying
that it "nad been presented to Forrest
bv the artists of the Broadway
Theatre, New Y'ork, on the sixty
ninth night of his performance iu
that city, April 30, 18-5. An immense
array of personal relics of the great
actor are her stored away.

For twentv-flve years I have been using
Mason's Blacking. When offered ny

good enough lor me." Repeated trials ol
Reams' Piish have convinced me of Its
superiority over my hitherto fovorlte.

A s ngle trial Is all that is necessary to
convince that "The Durham Boot and hhoe
Polish'" is the best. Without doubt it will
soon have ihe largest sale ol any Blacking
made. J. HOWARD WARNER.

We have used the "Durham Boot and
