C. Square is a real village, and has business houses and cnLetpri just like other towns. People at a, distance think that because wu carry so lew advertisements for liich Square business concerns Unit it is nothing but a county cross roads with no enterprise, push or ciK'i'gy to build it up. This is not the case. True, oiu' people have not realized the value a live paper is 'o a town and community, but it may be our fault in not impor tuning them for patronage, a thing the Patron anp Gleaner has uev er done, however much in need of it. We do our best to build up our town, community, county aud State, in the order named, aud if our work is not appreciated at home we have no complaints to make. The contest for Mayor of Great er New YAH'k is' waxing warm. Tliere are four leading candidates in 'he field, aud at tliis distance it is hard to decide between them. •Gnce we were inclined to hope Henry George would win, but all New York politici-ins are about alike.

In it Prof. Charles L. pHper begins a history of the Church and Private Scttools of North Carolina, and Prof. Bandy gives an interesting description of Shepherd Mountain iu Ran dolph county. Its otiior doparl- lueuts are well tilled. In a letter in the News & Ob- .server Dr. J. C. Kilgo, President of Trinity College, states that pre paratory or- academic schools are not so numerous or efficient in North Carolina as they were before the war. We were of the opinion that jus' the reverse was true. It is certainly the case in the Roan oke aud Chowan sections. We now have ten academies, doing efficient aud thorough work, iu this sec tiou to one before the war. THE STATE MUSEUM. But few people in the Slate know what a fine exhibit of the resources of North Carolina there is in the State Museum in Ral cigli, free for everybody to visit. In addition to the exhibit of the products of the soil, uiiuesancl forests, there are large codec tiuiis of fishes,fowls and wild ani mals. The museum is worth go ing to RaleiiJi to sec. The State has been fortunate in securing the services of Prof. Brimley, as cuiator. He is a young man, full of euergy, polite and courteous.

THE STATE FAIR. In most of the grocery stores in Northampton at this season of the year, and on until the spring, can be found Northern apples, retail ing at from four to ten dollars per barrel. Our orchards produce fine apples and a few of our people put up enough for winter use, but we never find home grown apples iu the stores. It seems that some might make raising fruit for mar ket a profitable business. Our peo yle even send to other slates for such things a.s onions and pota toes. Wo might at least I'uisf enough of such things for home co^uinption. The trust-, luonopoiies and goU couspirator.s iu North Car (‘lina wlio have able allies are w.-riving to capture the State next year. Every day wo have ev idences of the fine work they arc- getting in while the masses are ap })arent]y unconcerned. They are becoming bolder and more aggios- sivc, and plans are being laid t Ca})turo conventions imd carry elections, though the contest is a year oil'. The agents and tools of the trusts are g.oing about telling the people that there is nothing the matter with the counuy but l.iziucss, while the more cotton wo raise at preseuf prices the poorer we get. The State Fair held in Raleigh last week was a .success in many w'ays. Ono of tie features of the Fair was the presentation of the portraits of Colonels Vance, Bur- gwyii and Lane, of the 2Gth North Carolina Regiment, to the State by our countyman, John B. iVlac- Rae, Esq., of Jackson, which w'as done/in an ! loquent, toucliing speech. Col. Bmgwyn was a na tive of this county and iu an early issue we will print Mr. MacRae’ tribute to his memory. The exhibits were'good. Many exhibits deser ve special moutiou, but we can not go into details, for lack of space. Suffice to say the exhibits yvera a ciedit lo North Carolina. There is one feature of those an imal fairs that we have never been fully able to understand, and that is, why the mauiigement allows the fair gri'unds to be overrun with fa kirs and gambler.s. They monop olize almost everything and man age to carry away quite a large sum of mono'’, besides having a demoralizing effect upon the un suspecting country youth. The managers should advertise that ail kind of gaml)liirg will bo iu full blast atthe fair, aud fakirs have full sway^ Then people who do not; care lor such things would know I what to expect.

PDISIDEST KIICO Lectures ou ‘'OhriBtian Education" in North amptoii 'APlea forlgnorance aud Defense of Monopolies and 'Gold Standard. Rev. johiiO. Kilgo, D. D.. Pn-.s- ident of Trinity Colli g", b'cturud at Pinners M. E church near Rich Square last Sunday inorii- ingon “Christian E-iucation ” He went to great extremes.aud said many a.sioniiding things. It was announced from the puipit that his lecture was about ii:e same as tlie one deiive:«-d in Ral eigh the Sunday previous, so in stead of giving our views upon it, we give the criticism of Dr. Cy rus Thompson, Secretary of State, and a leading Methodist, upon the one delivered in Raleigh, as published iu the News and Ob serve r. Dr. Thomson, in an interview, said: “I went especially to hear and determine for myself whether the criticisms which have been ma'ie lo me uixm Dr.Kilgo'slect- ures on “Christian Education” were just or unjust to him' I listened to him carefully. Atlirst I thought he had been misrepre sented. As he went on and con cluded, I was coiiviuced that, as had been reported to me, there were four thing iu his address, to wit: {]) A covert plea for mono- metalism; (2) a somewhat bolder plea for monopoly; (3) a heartless atlack upon the university aud public education; (4) a very elo quent and masterful plea for ig norance. “No other conclusion can be derived from his address than that he is at variance with aud opposed to the fundamental prin ciples of personal liberty which is the very germinal idea of all the great American republic. He finds fault with the religious tob- eration of our constitution, while, at llie same lime iie appeals to Methodist lo stand by Trinity to Presbyterians to stand by David- S'li! and the Baptist to stand by Wake Forest.

Any cry of burdened hu manity, I gather from his address awakes in him only Iheennui of the well fed churchman, . who would cry peace when there is no peace. In the face of all that Dr. Josiah Strong has said, from tlie standpoint of a loving and broad minded Christian soul, Dr. Kilgo cries out: “I am tired of having lueo, wiih their hands upon the fevered brow and pulse of this nation predictingevih’ "With all the eloquence he can command he cries; Hush!' lu the face of every wail of human bit terness. He damns the spiritof discontent with present attain ments—discouteut which alone gives birth to progress and prophesies better things whether iu affairs spiritu-al or temporal It was discontent that wrought the reformation. I take it that Dr. Kilgo would have quelled it. It was discontent that threw off British tyranny. I lalce it that Dr. Kilgo would have cried at that time that all is well.
