WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 25, lHXSt. ANSiOl'JiCEMKNT, To the Patrons and Friends of The CmzKNjj It is necessary to say to you that sinci the first issue of this puK.-r. nowoncycar mm 1 have been unable to come to an r, - - understanding with its principal stock holders as to our respective interests ii the business, and in consequence this will lie its last issue until some definite ranirement is iicriccted. While I hope this may be in time for it resmmntion on lanuarv 1, candor com pels me to say that what I have notbcei able to accomplish in a year can scarceh lie expected in a week. As this may, then, be the final issue, it is appropriate and only just to myself am' others who have faithfully labored through the past twelvemonth, to say o few words of the results which have been accomplished. In the first place, I wish to assure thosi who have made advance payments on subscriptions and advertisements, that 1 declare myself personally responsible to sec that unless this paper is resumed within one week they shall be reimbursed such proportion of their money as ha not been earned according to contract. The same 1 say to all other creditors ; their claims will be met promptly at ma turity. This same spirit I espect to in fluence all who are indebted to this com pany, and that settlements will be m.'iili punctually, as gentlemen nlwav . i - ' at"! ' - Tin.""- The s-i. .

I sincerely hope that some news paper in North Carolina may speedily se cure his able services, and that the influ ence of his pen, the most gifted I have ever known, may not be lost to North Carolina. Mr. H. D. Child, who is well and favor ably known in business circles, hasserved this company most faithfully, and has my most sincere thanks and acknowledg ments. Messrs. Randolph and Kerr have done all that men can do to keep up the im mense and increasing amount of work in their respective departments, and I am glad to say that thev will prosecute with their usual energy the job department, nfter a rest of one day for Christmas. The volume of work in this department will require and tax the energy of both these gentlemen. Every printer and other employe has sustained toward me the position of a friend, which they have proved always by their courtesy and their readiness, in season and out of season, to perform their laborious duties and extra services of many kinds whenever called upon. 1 only can hope that the feeling of warm frienship may brand continue mutual. Mr. Arthur Child in a special degree has won my affection by repeated acts of kindness outside of the duties of his po sition; and to Mr. Marx, although our acquaintance has been of but recent, date I owe and tender acknowledgments for faithful, ready and efficient work. To each one and every one of these gentlemen I wish every success in what ever business they may undertake, and to-day a most Merry Christmas. T. W. Patton, Business Manager Citizen Pub. Co. BIOGRAPHY OF MR. GRAIJY The deatb of no journatist anywhere in the United States has ever created a profounder sensation. There was genu ine sorrow at the premature loss of a man so admirable personally, and so gifted intellectually. There is a feeling that a real calamity has befallen the country. Mr. Grady was many-sided, and each facet of his brilliant mind spark ling with a lustre of it own, and that mind was one that gained in splendor with each new test of its genuine worth. Measured by years, his trial was a brief one; measured bv results, he had accom plished already what no journalist, no orator, had ever attained, with excep tions so rare that they scarcely present themselves in comparison; and he had effected what none other had done in the troublous times since the war, gained patient, candid, willing hearing in a section where candid presentation of a distrusted section were rebuke akin to insult. Those were noble sentiments uttered by the men of Boston. In time they may be the voice of the whole North. When men of each section be lieve and trust each other, then comes lull and complete pacification of till mis understanding. We present the following outline of Mr. Grady's career: Hon. Henry Woodfin Grady, says the Chattanooga Times, was born in Athens, Ga., in 1S"1. During his boyhood he ujoved the best educationaladvantages. hut the four vears of the civil war scri- insly interrupted his studies, and much of his time was spent in visiting the vari us points where his father, Col. Grady, was stationed with his regiment. When peace came it found the hid ,'athcrk-ss. Col. Grady having fallen in battle while leading his men in a desper ite charge. Young Grady found that lie mid no time to lose equipping himscll or his career. Alter graduating at the State t'niversity he went to the t'uiver sitv of Virginia, where he took a post graduate course. He was, during his term in each of these institutions, the louugest student in attendance. He aiiilicd diligently such studies as suited his lient, and paid but little attention to studies in which he felt no interest. iHistorv, belles litters, Anglo-Saxon and ;",reek attracted him, and his standing was very high in all of these. I'rom the first his command of lan guage was remarkable. His pen trans erred his thoughts to pa)er in graphic and growing phrasts with lightning like rapidity and his ready, magnetic style ol quaking won for him the name of the ' Silver-Tongued Orator." In the literary societies ot the two universities he car ried off the highest honors as a speaker. DRIFTS INTO JOt'KN'AMSM. While still a student, he wrote a letter to the Atlanta Constitution. It was printed and the editor was so much struck with the sparkle and dash of the .omuuinication. that he signified his de sire to hear from the writer again. When the first press excursion alter the war was tendered a ride over the "State ioad," the editor telegraphed his boyish correspondent who had 1 hen returned to hi Ivinu '.n thens, that he wished to . ami 1 1 '.: .'.dy ) represent the Consti a on 'lv; trip, and write up the . . i.iiliy .mil 5 resources along the line ii' tlir : Mr. Grady accepted the ommi -i i'i a .1 of the hundreds of lct t rs wi ilic: on the occasion lus. over the i -lu'n.Uiuv ' 'King Hans." were tiie ... .Hilar i i'l ost widely copied.

It would be impossible in this brief space to sreak in fitting terms of the work ot the Constitution s managing ed itor. His editorials anil letters ol travel ire in so many scrap books all over the land that it is tainecessarv to describe their characteristics. The puier under his management energetically seconded hv his associates has become the one Southern dailv whose utterances are I tin ted throughout America and in toreign atids as the liest and truest expression of Southern sentiment and progress."

"Hanks is a very popular fellow, isn't he?" "I should say so. He'd lend his last cent to n friend in need." "But 1 though he was poor." "So he is; that's the reason." It sounds strunge, perhaps, but a Massachsetts man calls one of his cows Pony. We believe it is a shorthorn. Pelham's Drug Store is conducted on merit, and his patrons save "ten per cent."
