Oh ! lovely is the April time When warming zephyrs from the south Are bringing bumble bees, and rhyme To smoothly flow from poet's mouth, The cherry blossoms, frequent showers From fleecy clouds, and the round moon; But lovelier dawn and evening hours Are given us with leafy June. And lovely, too, the month of May With all its wealth of song and rose, Perfuming each melodious day F'ora morning gray to evening's close. Ah ! bright the day and fair the flower, And sweet each soft ornithic tune; But softer song and fairer bower Come with the lovely, leafy June. For like a maiden plump and sweet, With rounded limbs and breasts mature, A' trippiug with unsandaled feet Along some shining, fruitful shor2, And carrolling a heavenly tune, Doth come the lojely, leafy June. Now sings the sprightlj' oriole, The martins chatter from the eaves, The mated partridges are bold, The moaning dove no longer grieves. The mocking bird trills all the night, While shines the radiant, silver moon, And fairies dance, by fire flies1 light, Through all the shaded nooks, in June. The peach is ripe, the roses blow, Thie field and wood are decked in green, Strawberries down the meadows grow With portulaca in between. Oh ! perfect days, fair sunny land, Are these that come to thee in June, The sun is bright, the sky is bland, And summer's chords are all attune. June 22 J, 1888. UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA. SPECIAL ANXOUSCEMKXT. The Legislature of 1885 passed an act poviding for the establishment of an Agricultural and Mechanical College, and transferred to that college seventy five hundred dollars of income then used for Agricultural and Mechanical instruction at the University. This transfer of funds hus made necessary the reduction of the Faculty of the University, in certain special departments; and a f-dse impression may be made in regard to the effect of this reduction upon the general work of the Uni versity. The authorities deem it proper, therefore, to make a state ment of the facts, It had been demonstrated by experience that there was little demand among our people for instruc tion in certain departments of the University, notwithstanding their importance, and the efficiency and zeal manifested by the professors in charge; and it was evidently the desire of the Legislature that certain other special studies bs taught at the Agricultural and Mechanical College instead of at the University. Hence, in the re adjustment cf the work of the University, the authorities have omitted the following special branches of study : Pedagogics, Ornithology, Metallurgy, Mining Engineering, Feeding and Breeding of Animals, and Practical Horticulture. No diminution nor change has been made in any of the regular collegiate courses of study. The University still has a large Faculty, and offers full and thorough instruc tion in all general branches of study. Its Faculty now consists of a Profes sor of Constitutional and Interna tional Law and Political Economy, a Professor of Mental and Moral Science, a Professor of Mathematics, with an assistant, a Professor of Latin, a Professor of General and Industrial Chemistry, with an assist- ant, a .rrotessor 01 oecuogy ana Natural History, with an assistant, a Professor of Natural Philosophy and Engineering, a Professor of English Language and Literature, with an assistant, a Professor of Modern Languages, a Professor of Greek, a fully equipped Law School, making a total of fifteen professors and assist ants. Although the Chair of Pedagogics has been abolished, vet a course of study extending through two years has been arrange I for the special benefit of students preparing to teach; and a special course of three monhts is offered, each spring, to teachers who desire to extend their education. The general studies of especial benefit to farmers, merchants, manu facturers and other business men, have been grouped into a small course of two years, for the benefit of students who are unable to complete a full course. The completion of this course would be of great value to any business man. Students of Medicine will find at the University a short course of two years, comprising such general studies as are essential to the educa tion of a physician, and such special studies in Chemistry, Botony, Zoology, Physiology, &c., as are included in the curriculum of all Medical Colleges. By taking this short course at the University, they wiil not only receive the benefit 01 training in gener-il studies at the University of their State, but will also save one vear, at least, which would have to be spent at a Medical College. Full particulars concerning these shortert special courses, as well as the regular four vears courses, mav be had by addressing the President cr the Bursar of the University, at Chapel Hill. A. M. Scales, Chairman ex-ofTice of the Board 01 Trustees. W. L. Saunders, Secretary of State. Raleigh, N. C, June 18, '88. A DESPERATE BATTLE BETWEEN MOONSHINERS AND REVENUE OFFICERS. St. Louis, Mo., June 27th. A speaial from Little Rc!v, Ark., to the Post-Dispatch says : A desper ate battle occurred between revenue officers and moonshiners near Black Springs, Montgomery county, yerter day. Internal Revenue Collector Frye and posse raided the moon shiners' camp in the vicinity destroy ing three distilleries. Shortly after wards the posse waa attacked from ambush by an armed band of moon shiners. A regular battle ensued in which Deputy United States Marshal Trammel was killed. Collector Frye has telegraphed to Fort Smith for reinforcements. THE VIRGINIA DIFFICULTY AT CHICAGO. Washington letter in Alexandria Gazette, 29th : From people who have just returned from Chicago it is learned that not only Senator Ilid dleberger, bat ex-Senator Lewis and his son Shelley, "made up' with Gen. Mahone there, and that in the row that took place in the room of the Committee on Credentials General Groner stepped up to Mahone's side and 3aid, -"though opposed to your policy, in a personal fight I am with you." These returned Virginia del egates also say that Republican meetings will be held in all the Virginia districts to ratify the Mahone electoral ticket, and that nobody except, possibly, Messers Brady' and Wise, will oppose that ticket.

The following, taken from the News and Observer, shows that Har rison, the Republican nominee for President, will ruin our country if elected : 'The Chinese question is not a burning one with us, but on the Pacific slope and at the North a bad Chinese record is a heavy load for a Presidential candidate to carry and that is a weak point with Harrison. Tn Ifitf? n hill nnssed f!ontrrfi?s na- pending Chinese immigration for twenty years, and the Republican President vetoed it. On the question of passing the bill over the veto Harrison voted no. The bill failed to pass. Later when ano.ther bill was up making it unlawful to land any Chi nese labore.s in the United State3, and prohibiting the courts from admitting Chinese to citizenship, Harrison voted against that; but nevertheless it passed over his oppo sition.
