Grady was taken sick on his recent visit to Boston, and was taken home crowned with the glorious splendor of an intellectual achievement, the most splendid of all his achievements, because it was the outburst of an eloquence so full of broad, generous, patriotic fervor that it reached the hearts and convictions of those who had been most deaf to hear and most obdurate to truth. He was taken home to receive the plaudits of the whole Southern world whose cause h had pleaded, whose actions he had de fended, and whose wisdom and justice lit had vindicated and established. And hi was taken home only to die, with tin echoes of his glorious triumph ringing into his ears, with the eyes of his people fixed proudlvontheirchanipion, with tilt glorious consciousness that he had won for himself an undying name, not only in the South, but through the whole coun tryit might be said through the whole world tor true eloquence reaches the uni versal heart, and when its topic is the rights or the wrongs of a people, has universal anolication. And so Henry Grady descended from his Boston ros trum with a fame widely spread and everlastinulv fixed, proud achievement for the voting orator who hadgouefortl: the vouthful David to overthrow tin Goliath of sectional wrongnnd misrepre sentation. And he returned home, tlit modest victor, to yield to the mighty conqueror Death, delighting in his power to show how weak was human strength iow short the hour of human triumph A I. is, that one who seemed to be raised ::). v. evidentially to combat error, t "h ng, to check the current o st. .. .. i :'n, to pour oil upon the ,.i,u-,t .1. - to restore the genial .-. , . .,ti;i i. -utual good under- i ul, -cry flush of hi: svi'" goou .1 wt.. 1 ve been sink ten, his.irmv- . ,,.-u. It his actiY L ,, ,-e..-e ft wothigs, anil -- l un filled and silent, H-i have not ended with li. His voice went out to resi. m-w. -It - ' his side. - rden nn ,ue be i" works breath l and rcver- berate through the land never to cease in giving back its echoes until peace shall triumph and the sound of discord shall cease; for the very boldness and candor of his last memorable words so bore the stamp of truth and sincerity that they were caught up as such and ring on the ear and reverberate through the brain as the trumpet tones of the earnest patriot Mr. Grady died at his home in Atlanta on Monday morning from pneumoni contracted on his recent visit to the New- England States. It is said that he had never escaped an attack of that disease when visiting the North in the winter or spring months. This section of North Carolina had pe cuhar interest in the fame and fortunes ol Henry W. Grady. His antecedents fix him as of Buncomlw lineage. We can go no farther back on the paternal sid than his grandfather, Henry Grady, who. before Buncombe county was divided of) '."tO-tVic SUITiCrous counties formed out of its territory, was sheriff of the county ; a man of vigorous mind, genial temper, popular manners, and conspicuous among a race of men remarkable for independ ence of character and energy of action who composed the early population ot the section. His son, W. S. Grady, was the father of Henry W. Henry Grady, sr., married a Miss Woodlin, aunt ol Nicholas W. Woodfin, one of the most remarkable men intellectually thiscottnty has produced. Mr. W. S. Grady moved to Cherokee county after the Indian title was extinguished, we presume, nnd set tled at Tonotla, on Valley river, where he remained until about 1846, when he re moved to Athens. Ga., where his distin guished son was born. Mr. V. S. Grady engaged in mercantile pursuits with great energy and sagacity, and accumulated a large fortune tor those times. His love for North Carolina never abated; and when the war broke out he established himself at Fort Hembree.in Clay county, and raised a very large company. The Georgia line was only a few miles off, in full sight, and the company contained a large number ot" Georgians, some South Carolinians, the remainder being men of Clay, Cherokee and Macon counties. The company was mustered into service as Company G, W. S. Grady captain, of the 25th regiment, of which Thomas L. Clingman wascolonel. Capt. Grady was subsequently promoted for good conduct and was killed in one of the battles be fore Petersburg. The biography of Henry VV. Grady will be written more fully by the Atlanta Constitution, a paper which become part and parcel of himself from its striking in dividuality, Its bold originality, and its striking ability, becoming a leading pa per not only in the South but in the United States, with a circulation and a prosperity without precedent in Southern journalism. Henry W. Grady and the Constitution were convertible terms. One cannot be named without naming the other. When he died his paper must sympathize with him. Every render of it will feel for the while that its light is dimmed, every one of them feel that he has lost "friend, companion and guide." That if not so ; for the Constitution was not dependent on the ability of any one man; and Howell, another man of North Carolina antecedents, is not inferior in capacity to his illustrious coadjutor. But the mourning for Grady will be deep and sincere. There was but one Grady. It is a sad coincidence that two of the most striking figures in Southern history have been removed from their pedestals within the past two weeks. Jefferson Davis and Henry Grady were unlike, yet akin in purpose. Both were intensely patriotic, both intensely faithful to the constitution. The first was lorcea to show his faith by the supreme appeal to arms to secure the observance of the con stitution. Tin other, more happy in his circumstances, made his appeal to the sentiment of justice and brotherhood through the potent weapon of a concil ating and convincing eloquence. It is ; proud reflection that his last work on earth was the tiplilting ol the olive hrnm-h. not in simiiliauce, but with manly courage in what seemed to have been the very temple of discord ; and that his appeal reached generous ami reflect ing minds. It is probable that Henry Grady's siieeeh at Boston set in motion a train of thought and suggested ideas that will ultimately pervade the whol of Northern sentiment, uud at last bring about the era of good feeling, and (lis place forever the cmbittemicnt which lias made two antagonizing sections of our great and glorious country, Around Henry Grady can stand the mourning irieuds of both sections, for both of them have lost u true, able and sincere patriot When Wayne McVeigh, the son-in-law iif Simon Cameron, trained in the Penn sylvania school of polities, all his active life wedded to the most rigid doctrine ol a high protective tariff, comes out squarely against that doctrine there is hope for tariff reform. There is a radical change going on when New England clamors piteously for certain free raw materials once used in ninnufacturesupo" which, in the past days of hw tariffs fenr no competitor, slit- built her prosperity ; and when lY-nnsy! v.mi.-i. lit.iininir through the same tgency, the preeminence in the woolen in lustrv, feel the ground slipping from un der her. It is not from any feeling of sympathy for them that we hope con ;;rcss will mercifully hear their cry. When they were strong they had no pity upon others. When they grow weak and con less their weakness, and obtain what they ln-g for, then will the voices of others who have been denied have a hearing For this we welcome the accession of Mr McVeigh who makes himself the leader of the enforced penitents. Congress has ailjourneil anil gone home for the holidays. The temple of Janus is shut, and peace and good feeling hold for a short fortnight. It would be a vain expectation that the belligerents will return to the seat of their warfare in better temper with each other. It i discreditable to human nature that when they stand with all christian )eo pie during this blessed season of jieace and good fellowship that good influences shall soon exhale under the heats ot party passion, and that so soon shall the pleasing memories ot the Christmas season pass away. Hut there is a short truce to strife, and we will forego while it lasts all temptation to crimination and recrimination. Let us hope, if we cannot believe, that things are not so bad as they seem, and look to the future as one to which contention is not to be the heritage of the coming generation as it has been to the one now passing off the stage. The usually accurate statistical inform ation of the Wilmington Messenger is evidently at fault when it gives the num ber of men of northern birth in North Carolina in INTO at 2,971, and in lHNii at .1(12. That enumeration was for men of foreign, not northern, birth if we are not greatly mistaken. Wilmington Messenger: The rice barn on Messrs. Robert and W. K. Morrison's place a few miles from the city, ways de stroyed by fire on Monday morning, to gether with lietween 3,0(JU, nnd .00(1 bushels of rice.

Smith died very suddenly at the residence of her brother, Ii. T. C. I.utterloh, in Hadley town ship. She went to b d in the same room with two of her nieces in her usual good health, and next morning when they tried to awake her she was dead, having died during the night without a struggle or making any noise.
