Thero is!; no paper in the State of North Carolina, that I know any thing' about, that U edited in a style to meet the populaij want, to match the Era' And under its present manage ment, it should sopn become the leading Baptist Educational Convention. This meeting is exciting much in terest among our public men. Gov. Graham. Judge Kerr, Hon. C. C. Clarke and not a few of our leading citizens, regardless of church relations, are ex pected to attend and take part in the deliberations of the Convention. Education is at a low ebb in this State, we are sorry to say, and the cause of Boston now is the cause of the whole country. We learn that this Convention will be largely attended by teachers and preachers from all parts of the State, and we hope it will inaugurate an era of new interest in this most important work. Dr. Barnabas Sears, Agent of the Peabody Fund, will be here, and Drs. Curry, Broadus, Cutting and other gen tlemen have been invited.

Lawyer Parrish of Ilillsboro has shown us sixteen pack ages of seeds of all kinds thai he has just received from Commissioner Watts of the Agricultural Bureau in Washing ton city. He wrote on to him and re ceived by mail, bags of corn and peas and beans, and papers f onion seed, beets, parsnips, and vegetables of every description. Among them the "Gen. Grant tomato." The. commissioner wrote a very polite letter and requested to be informed of the result of the planting. That was all he charged. M. Houzeau says the mule is suppos ed to be able to count as far as five at least, and this is considered to be estab lished by the following observation : There is a short branch line of omni buses in New Orleans, where each mule makes the journey five times success ively before being changed. The vet erinary surgeon of these animals called attention to the fact that at the end of each of tho first four journeys they are silent, but as they approach tho end of the fifth they neigh. But this is not satisfactory. The end of the fifth trip may bo marked by preparations for feeding the animals, which they hear or smell at a distance, and these may have produced responsive neighs. Scribner's for Februarg. Read about the good cow: Perfect Number and condition of Teats. If one teat is wanting, about a fourth less milk will be the result. A cow's udder is not, as some suppose, a barrel with four taps, but is divided into four different compartments, called " milk glands," each of which has its own tap or teat. It is not only important that the full number of teats be present and in work ing order, but it is desirable that they be well placed, not crowded together, but pretty far and uniformly apart ; rather long and tapering ; all pointing out and downward, equal in size and even in appearance. Docility and Quietness of Disposition. These are indicated by large, mild and clear eyes, and an air of contentment generally. A cow ; that is quiet and contented feeds at ease, chews her' cud .with entire satisfaction, and will secrete and yield more milk than any restless and turbulent animal having similar milking chdracteristics iu other re spects. Brilliant White Wash : Many have heard of the brilliant stucco white-wash on the east end of the President's house at Washington.

Strain the liquid through a fine sieve or strainer, and add to it a peck of salt, previously well dissolved in warm wa ter, 3 pounds of ground rice, boiled to a thin paste, and stirred in boiling hot, J. pound powdered Spanish writtingand a pound of clean glue which has been previously dissolved by soaking it well, and then hanging it over a slow fire, in Ffftetf town was it ? lie find the following in the Chicago Post : Just at the conclusion of a recent circus per formance in a North Carolina town, the clown stepped forward and informed the vast assembly that they had taken in about 600 that day more money, he ventured to say, than any minister of the Gospel in that county would receive for a j-ear's service.

Butler made a brief but eloquent speech in advocacy of the measure. He said these old veterans should have their dues, even if during the rebellion they were led by circumstances to sympa thize with treason. They had won the right to be wrong once in their lives, and the government should deal gener ously with them. He ended by hoping that the time was near when the New Orleans of 1S12 would be remembered and the New Orleans of 1SG2 forgotten. He was loudly applauded several times by the members who gathered around him, and the Speaker made no attempt to suppress tho demonstration. figg" Rtilroadmen, we bet on you.

The crab hitherto inert now recovered its self possession, aud took hold of the mon key's nose between the large claws. The other, with a piercing cry, rushed to the roof of the building, clinging to a cord. The crab continued to maintain its hold, the monkey frantically endeavor ing to tear it away. Weary of the struggle, he suspended himself to a bar by the tail, and swung violently to and fro, hoping thus to throw off his enemy? the other apes sitting below on the ground, looking on with astonishment at the strange spectacle. Suddenly the poor animal became motionless. He was, an eye-witness suggests, thinking, and his reflections, we are told, were of a melancholy character, as they ended in a suicide. He let go the bar to which he had been suspended, and falling head foremost was killed instantly, his nose still in the claws of his persecutor." DESCRIPTION: James Alexander, alias James Brad shaw, is about thirty years of age, but looks older; is about five feet seven inches high, quite black in color, rather oval face, teeth good but a little wide apart, and ;is inclined ,to smile when spoken to, but has a down-cast look ; weight about loo pounds ; is quite intel ligent and inclined to arguo for his opinions. jnlo-4w.
