Vou now, no doubt, consider yourself the happiest of men.and you have reason to think your self so. You have obtained that for which you have been seek- mg. It has been an obiect of your pursuit to find someone worthy of your affections and cal culated to increase your happi ness. You have found the prize, she has leit her home, her family and friends, to share in your pleasures and sorrows. She has given to you her whole heart. On you now rests much, most of her happiness. As the vine twining around the majestic oak makes it a far more interesting object, while at the same time it acknowledges its superior hight and strength, sojjis the love of woman.

T of being with love above ail this fond expectation be disap pointed? Shall these affections be destroyed? Shall this devoted heart be crushed with all these bright hopes clustering thick about it? Ah, no! It is the duty of the husband with a kind and gentle hand to temper, rath er than with a cola hand to chill them. He must never allow that vulgar expression to prove true "Courtship and marriage are very different things." They should not he different. You may, and you ought to, show to your uife all these endearing at tentions which first arrested and fixed on vou her affections. ! Never let her feel the difference ! between a lover and a husband, j or rather be .es much a lover after j marriage as before. It is often i said that man is an active, rest less being, full of excitement ! T 1 1 -.1 1 1 il . A ". ami picascci wuu an uiai is new. But if he is this he is also a social and domestic being. You are actively engaged in business, and while you are so, are con tented. You mix much in so ck tv. enter into public affairs of interest, and join with others in the familiar discussion on the topics of the day. But are you satisfied with these? Will these, and these alone make you happy? They cannot. Wlun the day, with its bustle and cares is over, you return to your own quiet fireside. And then you desire to meet one on whom much of your happiness depends. Do you wish your step to give her pleasure. Would you have her welcome you with smiles and re ceive from her hind words? Do you same by her. Do you Wish your family well arranged? Are you desirous that prudence, order, neatness and good taste should maV-p its several carts? Make these cares a pleasure to her, by being yourself pleased when you see them well performed. She will, if before deficient, gradually acquire a habit of attention and consideration, as indeed they are eminently her sphere of duty. When you chose a wife you did not probably think her hand somer than any other, or more learned than any other, or en tirely becter than any other that union of qualities, that "happy medium" which was best calculated to make you happy. Never fear to let her be sensible of this. Never let the fear of jokes or smiles prevent your showing, in the presence of oth ers, that your wife is more to you than all others. A foolish fondness, an affected ooliteuess, is indeed almost disgusting as we sometimes see it disnlaved bv 1 - sometimes see it displayed by- married people. And it is often to my mind an indication of a want rather than an overplus of affection. But there is a nolite- ness that springs from the heart; there are attentions which a true interest and affection prompt, and these should never be negs lected. Oh, tell it not in Christ endom that your affections are not inviolable. Common con sent and the providence of God has made the husband superior to the wife. But it is not neces sary to assert this superiority. If done, it tends to lessen the affec tion of both. If your wife has the proper views and feelings she will show sufficient defers ence to your opinion without oeing reminded 01 it. It is tne distinguished mark of civilized society, it is a peculiar excell ence of Christianity, that women is made the companion, not the slave and dependent of man. The time is gone by when women were thought to have no souls. In physical strength and active labor they must yield, but they may, and often do, possess as much firmness of mind and strength of purpose as the other sex. In order, then, to make your wife happy, yourself so, and y our ho m e pleasant to both, follow the dictates of duty and affection. Then she will have no desire to seek pleas ures abroad. She will not de sire tne admiration ot others it she have your confidence. She w:T. he ready t give up the al lurements of gaiety and fashion, for the more endearing pleasures of quiet domestic happiness. .. thing in lire is so pure and :ie otet ted is woman love It rt- .tiers not whether it 1 e ex. ed ior husband or child, sister or brother, it is the same pure un quenchable ilamc, the same cou- slant and immaculate glow of feeling, whose most proper food is misfortune, and whose undeni able touchstone is trial, where true friendship is tested and proved. Do but give her one token of love, one kind word or gentle look, even if it be amid desolation and death, the feeK iligs of that faiihful heart will gush forth as a torrent, in de spite of every earthly bond or mercenary tie. More priceless than the gems of Golconda is a virgin's heart, and more devoted than the idolatry of Mexico is a woman's love. It is a principle and characteristic of her nature, a facultv and infatuation which absorbs and concentrates all the fervor of her soul and the depths' ot her bosom. 1 here is more thrilling felicity derived from a union of true, guileless and un contaminated hearts than all the c o u q u e s t s of Alexander or Napolean, the wisdom ot So crates or the wealth of Croesus.

Near Goldsboro Sunday after noon an escaped prisoner from Wayne county jail, named Bunn, was killed bv Sheriff Scott. The j sheriffs people had been hunting L. . . Bunn several weeks, l lie siierm was returning from church in the country when he met Bunn in a road cart with his wife. The sheriff called to him to sur render. Bunn made no reply but from the bottom of the cart drew a double-barrelled gun which he levelled at the sheriff. Before he could fue the sheriff fired three times in rapid succes sion. Bunn fell from the cart dead. The ball took effect at the base "of the spine. Bu tin's wife was uninjured. The senti meut is that the sheriff was justi fied. Bunn was known to be a desperate man. The numerous cures of rheumatism by the use of the old standard blood purifier, Aycr's Sarsapurilla, show con clusively that it is an effective remedy, if not indeed the specific, for this most painful and persistent of maladies.

The first general Thanksgiv- ing Day was observed in Massa- chusetts. There had been a long, hard winter, one of great sever-' ity and suffering. There was not only famine, but disease. A vessel had been sent out for pro-' visions. Day after day passed and it did not return. On the very d iy appointed for lasting nd prayer, in came the ship. ; The day was in 1631. Jhereat-; ter it became an annual observ-: ante. ; Whence came the custom of . eating turkey at Thanksgiving?! It is related that on one of the ' 1 Thanksgiving Davs in New j England, the corn and b rlev i laving yielded a rich return, bur hunters were scnt out to i , i procure wild lowi to r- 1 with the grain in the feast. They returned with an abuud r- 1 mi d ailUC VJi L 11 1 IS. V .3. X LlL CW turkey became the Thanksgiv- j ing towi Eor many years the people had observed an annual day of Thanksgiving, but "the first national Thanksgiving procla mation was issued by President Washington, dated 'at the city of New York, the third day of Oc tober, in the year of our Lord one thousand seven hundred and eighty-nine.' The day recom mended for this service was No- vein be r 26, 1789." 1 The first Thanksgiving was observed in the month of Sep tember. It was President Lin coln who set the time definitely for the last Thursday in Novem ber. Since that time it has al ways been a fixed day. Hx. Dr. George T. Winston, Presi dent of the State University, is to deliver the commencement address before the University of Texas. How to Succeed. "D. R. Walker," writing of the success of the Rocky Mcuut Fair, says of its President.- Hon. B. II. Bunn says that Jesse Brake's success in life lias been brought about by paying his way as he went. He has for twenty years made it a rule whenever coming to town to bring something to sell, and "I alwavs make the load which I bring to town worth more than the load I carry back home," has been his motto. It is the looking well after the small things in life that tells in every calling'. Jesse Brake has succeeded in farming better than many of his neighbors be cause he has carried more things to town than he brought away. There are other farmers like him. Their experience ought to be an object lesson to their neighbors.

Eating Miss Foster, a school teacher of Pecatonica, Illinois, severely whipped a pupil recently because the odor. of onions was on his breath. The children of the school promptly rebelled against the in'roduction of the rod as punishment for eating onions, and all have eaten raw onions at every school-day meal since. The parents of the children have taken up the cause, and now nearly all the inhabitants of the town are eating onions. MURDERED AND ROBBED. j A well-known citizen ok au- IIIKD AND THROWN AMONG WEEDS. Saturday night at 8 o'clock on r 1 Aurora, Beaufort county, N. C, about forty yards from J. W. Chapin's gate, and the same dist ance from li is own, some one shot down John B. Bonner kill ing him, it is supposed, instantly, but he was not found until Sun day morning about sun-up. He was shot in the left side, the ball passing through the body. The other shot was in the forehead, making a wound as large as a silver dollar. He was picked up and thrown over the fence in the weeds. He is a man with a host of friends and the shock to the com munity is great. There is no suspicion on any yet. Blood hounds have been sent for and everything will be done to catch the guilty parties. Tracks were found leading from the body towards the creek. Everything valuable was taken from the body with the exception of a ring. Mr. Bonner was engaged in the banking and brokerage busi ness and was a vestryman in the Episcopal Church. He was worth considerable property and did much for the advancement of his part of the country. He leaves nine children. This is the second murder to occur in that part of the country this year, beside "Judge Lynch" visited there last Christmas. Considerable excitement is - ornfl orl if tbp o-nilKr nnps ! a-ViVlA-J.

Moilie's Little Ram. Mollie had a little ram as black as a rubber shoe, and everywhere that Mollie went he emigrated too. He went with her to church one da)-, the folks hilarious grew, to see him walk demurely into Deacon Allen's pew. The worthy deacon quickly let his augrypas sion rise and gave it an un christian kick between the sad brown eyes. This landed rammy iu the aisle: the deacon followed fast, and raised his foot again, alas!; that first kick was his last. For Mr. Sheep walked slowly back, about a rod 'tis said, and ere the deacon could retract, he stood him on his head. The congregation all arose and went for that 'ere sheep; several well directed butts just placed them in a heap. Then rushed they straightway for the door. grumbling long and loud, while rammy struck the hindmost man, and shoved him through the crowd. The minister had often heard that kindness would subdue the fiercest beast. "Ahha," he said, "I'll try that little game on you" And so he kindly, gently called: "Come rammy, rammy, ram, to see the folks abuse yon so, I grieved and sorry am.M The ram quite dropped his humble air. and droppedjfrom off his fee and when the parson anded, he was in the hindmost seat. And as he shot out ot the door and closed it with a slam, he named a California town, I think 'twas Yuba Dam. Ex. An Unequalled Combina tion of Advantages. Nature has given the South advantages unequaled by those of any other country. More than I 60 Per cent- of the world's cotton r 1 is raiseu in tne soutn. m i uns cotton crop is nou exceeded iti value by its grain crops, which aggregate about 650,000,000 bushels a year, a fact which comparatively few seem to know. More than one-half ot all the standing timber in - the United States is -in the South. Iron ore and coal arc in unlimited supply, and owing to their prox imity and to the low cost of min ing, pig iron is now made at a smaller cost than in any other part of the world. Pittsburg and Chicago are now using Alabama iron for busic steel making, and soon large steel plants will be built in the South. Nearly every Southern State has an abundance of the best water power to sup plement the advantages of cheap coal. It is not an exageratiou to say that this favored land has greater advantages and resources, such as mineral, timber and ag ricultural wealth, than all other sections; it also has greater ad vantages for the profitable utili- xatiou of these natural resources than any other country in the world; by virtue of its rivers and long sea coast it has the guaran tee of the lowest freight rates, regardless of railroad combina tions; it has a climate that is con ducive to good health and long life a climate that reduces the cost of living to a minimum; it has all of these mighty factors to llisre lts prosperity, and with than any fewer disadvantages other equal area in America or Europe. It can produce every- i.l 1 - l .l ,.f limit of manufacturing and min- S diversity, at a iowei cost uuui other sections. It is becoming the market garden of the North. 1 i. 1 Ail Iu the aggregate the shipment of early fruits and vegetables North and West probably amounts to $50,000,000 a year; this business is increasing very rapidly. Ten years ago it was of trifling importance. Some countries have iron and coal, some have timber, some have good agricultural lands, some have a good climate, some have water power, some other advantages, but no other except the South combines all of these, and to them adds cotton, which, in all its ramifications, is the foundation of what is probably the greatest manufacturing in terest in the world. On Monday, says the Wash ington Gazette, a very 11 11 fori us uate accident happened to Fred erick YVerren, the bright and gentlemanly eleven-year old son of Capt. Chas. F. Warren. An accidental shot from little Murray Short's air gun, striking him in the right eye, caused such injury as to necessitate taking him to Baltimore for treatment. He was carried by his parents and Dr. Juo. G. Blount to Baltimore Monday nignt by special train. Mrs. Jno. G. Blount followed on Wednesday to be with Mrs. Warren. A telegram received after their arrival states that it was necessary to take out the eye at once. A negro who stole a cow from the editor of the borest City Ledger was recentlyse.it to the penitentiary for four years, if all the fellows who steal from editors were sent to the peniten tiary it would be so full of them that their feet would stick cut of the windows. In our twenty odd years' experience publishing a paper we have accumulated $ Spoo of subscription debts that we will take one-fourth of a cent on the dollar for. Our deliber ate opinion is that the men who have defrauded us out of the just fruits of our labors are as guilty of theft in the sight ot the Al mighty as the negro who stole editor Green s cow. It is no consolation to think that they will not escape hell in the next world as easily as they have the penitentiary iu this. Mt. Airy News. OUR NEW DRUGGIST. Mr. F. H.
