After making use of the advantages offered by the schools in his native county, he began the study of medicine and continued it until he graduated as a physician at the Medical College in Lexington, Kentucky. In 1832 he married Sarah, daughter of Peter Dicks, Esq., and has spent his life in Guilford, Mont gomery and Randolph counties. Dr. Worth was early called into political life. Three times did he represent the Senatorial district composed of Moore und Montgomery counties ; twice that composed of Randolph and Montgom ery, and twice that composed of Ran dolph and Moore counties. Dr. Worth has never been an olllce seeker in any sense of the word, either before nomi- vention, that framed the Federal Con-- both of mind and body. Both of these stution.

Lee and Norwood : after which he went to Washington College in Tennessee, where he was a school mate of Governor Vance. He studied medicine in Asheville under those noted physicians, Drs. Hardy and Les ter, after which he went to Philadel phia, where in due course of time he graduated at the Philadelphia Medical College. lrr the Legislature of 1854-,55, he was elected a member of the Council of State, during Governor Bragg' s ad ministration, which position he re signed in order to qualify himself for a seat in the Legislature, for which he was then a candidate. He was elect- 4 ed without opposition, and continued to be so elected until the close of the late war, soon after which he returned to private life and resumed the prac tice of medicine. In 1875 he was elected a member of the Constitution al Convention, in which body he did Ever and anon it has vibrated upon the air like the shake of young eartii quake, and we've lived in hope and defied despair until at last the pent- up storm came down'upon 'cm like an Alpine avalanche, or a simoon in the desert, or a typhoon of the trop. ics, or a cyclone of the raging seas.

In 1S57, he settled in Tarboro and began the practice of the law. ,In May, 1861, he entered the military service of the State as Captain and Quartermaster of the 33d Regi ment N. C. Troops. In April, 1862, ji com 1 1 he was promoted to be Major and Quar t's tin 1 termaster of General Braneh's brigade. In December, 1862. he was transferred t near j to General Pender's brigade as its Ad jutant General. In May. 1863, he be came Adjutant General of Pender's Division, afterwards Wilcox's Division, in which capacity he remained 'with it until the surrender at t Appomattox C ourt House. In March 1866, having in December previous purchased Mr. Fulton's interest in the Wdminglou Journal, he went to that place to live intereu below 1 parsed Coming pie. When he has gone before the people, it has been to comply with the demands of others, and to aid in ac complishing the success of the part, whose principles he advocated, rather than : from any consideration personal to himself. In the convention last year he was nominated for the position he now holds by acclamation. Indeed, from one end of the State to the other there seemed to be but cne opinion, and tliat was, that Dr. Worth was to be our next Trcsurer. The action of the convention did but put in formal shape what the public mind had long before settled down upon.
