The Populists of the South, led by the Hon. Thomas. E. Watson, the late Vice-Presidential caadididate, have joined in a movement to over throw- Marion Butler and the National Committee of the party in order to preventanv further attempt atfusion with either of the two great national parties. . The movement really started some weeks ago when the reformed press .m.iil for a national convention to Ibl .w be held on the 4th of J uly iu Nash ville for this purpose. That call was looked upon as having no effect but within the last two weeks Mr. Watson has added his influence to it and now it has assumed national ironortions.

The Jones took out from ilmiug- ton a cargo valued at 78,000, the icond in value yet landed in Cuba. This was transferred to the lilionster Dauntless in open sea near the La hamas. The Jones took on, off Palm Beach, Florida, 62 Cubans. These were also transferred to the Daunt less, which made two trips to Cuba.

Theclos- mg exercises Degau octnesday night by a concert by the primary and intermediate department. The programme wa3 happily chosen and executed with great credit to the children, showing the throushaess of the training they have recceived. Bat the cl.ief part of the exercises was the literary address by Rev. J. C. Xiiso, D. D., President of Trinity College. The Methodist church was densely packed from pulpit to door with as pretty a congrega tion as it has ever been my privilege t look upon. ' Extra seat and chairs were crowded ia nntil seating room and standing room was exhausted. On the rostrum with the speaker were the Trustees of the Academy, Messrs. C. C. Griggs, J. K. Dunn auJN. J. Thompson; also Eev. J. P. Boyd, ot Polkton,' Rev. W. J. F. Stubbs, Prof J, A. Baldwin and myself. Dr. Kil- go was happily introduced by Prof. Bald win, lie began on a low key, but soon rose higher, and for an hour and a half his matchless eloquence held ...that densely packed audience spell bound. The boy and girls and young people generally were delighted. The parents and friends were more than delighted with that speech. The subject was, Education and the Family. Even a brief synopsis cannot be undertaken here, lie showed that the family is a di vine institutiou and was for the purpose of educating the children. The speaker militia were having their annual in- 1 . - JIB 1 ublisbed in this city, the editorial spection on the athletic ground ot aweitat some length on the sacred aess i afternoon, "a foul ball struck by a tions of Marion Butler and of the accredited leaders of the party, lur. Yvatson looks upon tnem as student' who was engaged in a game of baseball at the other end of the being iu the parly merely for the of -1 grounds struck the horse of Major D. B. Evans, an officer on Adjutant General Watts' staff.'" " The militia had been given per mission to use only half of the grounds, but General Watts request ed the ball-players to withdraw until the troons could marca. past and. leave the field. This the studeuts tices which they can gain through its influence. He declares that they should be ousted from the seats of power, and that the movement of the People's party, Which has been so seriously handicapped by its leaders, should start afresh; ignor ing all past organization, but taking .ores, jsiiall that the "sins of the fathers be visited upon the children even to the third and fourth gener ation." It comes perfectly natural for a ,Dockery to eulogise negroes and Union Soldiers. Yes it does. Judge Simontou has just render ed a decision, in the circuit court of ' ' . .tsouth Carolina, that will effectually kill the State dispensary, unless it ,58 reversed by the Supreme Court of .ihe countrv. . The Judge holds that .the seizure- of certaiu wines and li quors, shipped into the State from its cue from the proceedings of the refused to do, and the police declin- conveution to be held in Nashville. Mr. Watson Bays, that a man who regular action next is waiting for California in unbroken orieinal ' packages, for private consumption, was a violation of the .inter-state commerce law. Below is an es tract .from the decision: - "Any State may, in the exercise of .the police power, declare, that the nanufacture, sale, barter and ex change, or the use as a beverage of : alcoholic liquors, are public' evils, and having thus declared can for bid such manufacture, sale, barter ,Hiid exchange, or use, "within her territory. But when a State recog vih;es and approves the manufacture, ale, Jjiirter and exchange, and the tise as a beverage of alcoholic li enors, and the State itself encour ages' the manufacture, engages in the sale of and provides for the.j3on jotiinplioh of alcoholic liquors a3 a "'"sverage, and so precludes the idea that such manufacture, sale, barter, exchange or use, are injurious to J he public welfare it is not a lawful xercise of the police power to fer vid the importation of such: liquors, pr their sale ill original; packages jUr personal use atid consumption." vear, trying to catch the opinion of the people and otherwise fighting for delay, is simply in the way of the enemy aud should be go't rid of at once. Mr. Watson in his effort to give a national character to the convention met an unexpected stumbling block in his o.wn State, "when State Chairman Cunningham refused to call a State convention for the purpose of electing delegates. This being the case Mr. Watson at once issued instructions, which were eagerly taken tip. in every, county, by which mass meetings-, were held and instructions forwarded. to Cun ningham to call a nieeting. That officer, who is now dallying with the Republican party for the. patronage of this State, does not take a Tdudlv view of-the movement, and therefore the Ptepulists have begun to elect delegates all over the State for a convention to be held in this city on June 22. At' this convention, it is absolutely asserted, new liue3 will be established, the party w ill be re organised, and the methods of at tack outlined. Delegates will be named to the national convention, to be held iu Nashville on July 4. This Georgia movement is full of iuer to interfere, General . Watts or- dered the troops to advance. The students resisted and some broke through the line. A ' general riot foilwed in the course of which a policeman was knocked senseless and a student named JneUoil mid ms head crushed, from fee effects, of which he mav die. Prof. It.

The speaker reached the climax of this part of his address when he described the enthusiasm of the mother in the child the day he first "stood alone.' lie thus followed up the process of educa tiou to graduation. Such an address to such an audience as that cannot fail to do great good At 8:50 o'clock p. m. came the debate by the Hesperian Literary Society at the Academy. Tiie subject was a timely. one, viz: "Resolved, That the migration of the agricultural classes to the towns and cities is beneficial to the whole country." The speakers.on the affirmative were D. L. Ilill and W. 11. Whitehead, while the negative was discussed by B. S. Moore aud Johu W. LeGrand. . The judges were Rev. M. Mc- Leod.of Cheraw, Prof. Clarke, of Cedar Hill, and Mr. R. T.S. Steele, of Richmond coun ty. The speeches were all good and show ed careful and painstaking preparatibn. The judges rendered their decision in favor of the negative side, and of Mr. LeGrand as the best speaker, aud he was presented a nice bouquet, no doubt arranged by the deft fingers of some fair and lovely maid. While Mr. LeGrand carried oil the flowers, the speech of Mr. Moore deserves special mention, as showing a grasp of the subject hardly to be expected in one so young. These young men have a great future. The closing exercises were completed by the concert at night by the academic de partment of the school. This programme was also well chosen, and rendered with honor to the whole school. At its close Prof. Baldwin-, iu a happy little speech, bade farewell to his pupils and patrons. He has been among us two years and has won the unbounded confidence and affec tion of the entire community. We part with him reluctantly, but commend hirn to God aud whomsoever ha may be called to .

The school has been on a broad non-sectariau basis, supported by all the denominations, work i n2 together to the same end. There hajbeen scarcely any friction, non9 to hurt the school, and we hope and expect the same for the future. The school is uuder the control of Trinity College and will be supplied with a first-class teacher for an other year The streets of our little town are pain fully quiet and still since the close of the school, but we look forward to the next term and pray for its coutined prosperity R.

Truly it can be said ot her that a "Mother in Israel has fallen." But it was only the falling asleep or laying aside the old teat to dwell in a mansion. The funeral service was conducted, at the Baptist church, by Eev. J. G. Biaiock, af ter which she was laid to rest ia the Liies ville cemetery. Her life on earth is finish ed.
