We advise the parents of children in Edenton and the country around to read the advertisement of the Edenton Gra ded School which will be found in this paper, and to consider fully their inter est in it. For several years the school has strug gled with the various difficulties inci dent to it infancy. During last year a which involved Among the best features of the Eden ton Law as it now stands are these: The opportunity of education of indigent children is virtually assured; every resident citizen is offered the benefit of that part of the public school fund ap portioned for his children; and the par ents of children who attend the school have the right of electing each year Trustees of their own choice. This school has already done a great deal for the education of the young, and appearances indicate that its usefulness has only fairly begun. The Trustees state in their circular of July 8th 1887 that, in case the school is not made entirely free by subscriptions, etc., the charges for instruction will be very moderate. We have no hesitation in saying that it should have a general and liberal support. pa YSthe FREIGHT Ton Wm Hea.le. Iran Laven. Steal Baariof. AraM fui Xta m4 Bw B tec 2360. VrvrrfttMBokto.

When death invades a household and removes some loved edlerly member of .the family circle, the relatives and friends of the departed one, sooner or later, regain, to some extent, their com posure by reflecting, that it was but what might be expected in the ordinary course of nature, death being the com mon destiny of all humanity. But when one is taken, standing as it were on the very threshold of mature exis? tence, just budding into womanhood, and lookiug hopefully foward to many years of happy and useful life, it scatters all philosophy to the winds, and leaves us nothing in the way of consolation, but our faith in the wisdom and good ness of our Creator, impressed by the assurance of our S.iviour that "what is done we know not now, but we shall know hereafter." These reflections have been prompted by the recent sad decease of the young lady whose name stands at the head of this tribute. In alt the relations of life, the performed the full measure of her duty Asa daughter and a sister she was warm-hearted and affectionate; as a frien.. sh ? was truja.d synj pathetic; as a christian and uuMiioer ot the churoii, sue was faithful and prompt, particularly delighting in the services of the Sanct uary and tie exer-dses of the Sabbath S -booh Of her it nitty truly be said, ''Biessed are the dead, who die in the Lord." She has passed away L ke a eent'e breath, And her eyes are closed with the sleep of death. The leaves on the trees will flutter aud fall, And the urifting snows will cover all, But 6he wiil peacefully, calmly re6t, Forever happy By : n ,les blest.
