ORANGE COIWTY OBSERVER. SATURDAY, Dec. 181880. Entered at tin Post Office it Hills borough, ,N. C,f as second class matter. Men gr-w weak by taking too much strong drink. The Raleigh papers announce the suspension of thej Raleigh Sentinel for want of sufficient patronage. The New York Herald saya that women can vote in Texas, owing to a provision of the Texas statuies which declares that "the masculine gender fchall include the feminine and neuter." But the 'women have not found it out as yet. Wil. Star. Well, this is the first time we ever heard the women accused of not finding out anything. . Every Legislature that has met since the war was the "ablest." Wonderful U-Wil. Star. Wo can't speak! lor the balance of the State, brother Star, but so far a Orange c unty in j concerned, it will le the OrceneM. We think our brother of the New bernian, brother Cap. in or, :.iii ' say lit' same con tret aing Craven county. Speak out, hi t.tlter. . 1 ! TflK Baptist State (convention held in Goldsboro a lew weeks ago, paused resolutions meinor ializing the Legislature n the subject. of prohi bition, and the Methodist Confer ence, at Winsjop, adopted similar resolutions. The County Commis sioners of Halifax, Chatham and Moore' have refused to grant license for the sale ti spirituous liquors in those counties. The prohibitionists arc concentrating their forces, and we may look forward to lively limes in the near future between the tem perance advocates on one hand, and the friends of license on the other. The New York Herald is daily exposing the dishoiu-sty of John Kelly, and appears determined to hound him down. His withdrawal from the politics ot the country would materially benefit t lie Demo cratic party.. and we wish the Her ald success. Hancock owes his de feat to Kelley's treachery. Bonier Review, Henderson. m i i i Any party tliat will allow one wan to defeat it in a national elec tion, deserves defeat. We hope no other paper, especially in North Carolina or the South, will admit that one man defeated the great Democratic party in a Presidential election. It it is true, we ought to be ashamed of o. 1 WUA T IS THE MA TVER ? When old age overtakes a man who has spent his young and best days in the nervice of church or any other organization, hp should not be east aside without provision being made to take care of him. See the good old preachers, (and if there are people in the world that we dove, they ar the gxxl vhl preachers,) who have spent their lives in doing good, now that they have arrived at old age, cvst off, given some inferior appointment, any where, just to get rid of them. It is wronu. The peopU say they don't want an old man. The trouble in, wo fear, the good old men live too close to God for most of the churches and ootigre- gallons. This is a Ktranre world. NEARLY all of the Democratic papers in the State Lip an heard trom, are in favor of giving the State lriM"."'.r t lhe News and Observer. vv. i,... i...... ., ) r V..1U l' mm .1 1 'I III" I .1 1 II. j t I.i'jsl.tUii'O, with an ouiu-e of if rat i- tude in it, eotild do lhecwie than! i te this paper the printing.'

The details of the murder ot Mrs. Kennedy, in Clarendon county, and the subsequent lynching of the mur derers, have been received. Mrs. Kennedy, a lady twenty years of age and of tine family, had been left alone in her house by her husband. She sat by a window writing, aud saw Joe Barnes, a negro lad, loafing about the premises. This he had been incited to do by Vance Bfandt and Julia Brandt, the purpose beinr to ascertaiu when Kennedy left the house, and then enter and rob it of a considerable sum of money which they believed was in ii. Brandt and his ister lay in a thicket near by, aii.l u-lion Itarrioa aiur liii.m..i. ... he at once cave a sicnal to them. 1 Brandt made repeated attempt to enter the window, but was thrice pushed back by Mrs. Kennedy. Fi nally, seeing that he was determined t gel in. she ran out ot the front door and was going through the gate ot the yard when Brandt seized a hoe and knocked her down. She begged for mercy, but he cursed her, saying, "J s beeu wantm to kill you i a louir time." With this he twice! agan struck her, almost cutting her arm off. At this moment Julia, the I ueirress. came ud. and with another he comtlcteIv severed Mrs. Keuue- dv's head from her body. - hours later, he found his wibVs dead body outside the gate .stiff in death and horribly mutilated, wkh the ifiMins -catteied over the irr.iUtid.
