A brave soldier himself, and more favored than most since tbe days of service in the army of his country,' he bus uever forgotten his - less fortunate comrades, never failing to speak a word in their behalf whenever and wherever opportunity afford ed, and always and everywhere contributing largly and liberally of his means to help aud support "1 hem. Hundredsof homesin North Carolina attest his liberal heart ed ness in behalf of tbe men who wore tbe gray, and their widows and orphans. He has ever been be is today, the old soldier's best and truest friend. Not only this. General Carr has proven himself friend to every movement and institution in the Stile that makes for a be'.ter, broader, and nobler citizenship, a more cultured, en lightened and useful manhood and womanhood. With a large purse, a liberal heart and a ready hand, he has contributed more to tbe educa tional apd Charitable institutions of North Carolina than any other man in tbe State. In this gener ous spirit and in these princely gifts "be has known no creed, no system, ho party, but has always helped wherever there w is an honest purpose 10 give better ed ucatiocal facilities by theindivid ual, the Church.; tbe State, the town, " or the city. " He seems never to tire in his efforts to quicken tbe educational life of his State nod country. By his personal attention aud presence, by contributions and donations, he baa helped many a struggling institution io this State to a high er plane of usefulness and influ ence, many worthy needy youth to a better, nobler and more suc cessful carrer, Are we then to reward men for their gifts acd freewill offerings to charity? Not at all. A virtu ous, manly charitable life carries its own reward. But we should delight to honor, and put into positions of trust and confidence those wbp have in the truest and best sense of the word, in the largest and most unselfish man ner shown themselvs worthy of boner,, trust and coi.firie ice. General Carr is a successful business man, a clear thinker, a forceful speaker. atrue patriot, a friend to tHe people, a generous, noble-hearted ( philanthropist. North Carolina can but honor itself Cm entrusting to him the privilegea . of the high' office to which be aspires. Fidelity to Friends. There is one quality too rare too little esteemed, perhaps but still always admired in every age of the world, and that is fidelity to friends, tit is diffloult nay, I may say, Impossible to conceive of any t hi ng ' i n " h n m an relations more beautiful, or that more on mistakabiy- evinces a trace of a godlike being' than true Iri. s d ship,' with the single exception of the still holier and cloter rela tions of heaven blest love. . The stories - of David and Jonathan, Damon and Pythias are well worthy of Immortality. And there are iostances today even io what some would have ns believe Is a a age of selfish greed, that are not less beautiful and sublime Some of 'these may live in the chronicles of men just as long as those mentioned; the vast major ity will never be widely kno wn, but will be a redeeuing feature io -the history of the raca,( will beautify the pages kept by the recording angel and will live lu the memory of God Philadelphia Times, -----,-. y "--- i"MRS;BtlT.H - No Patience With People Who 1 Are Alwa.it Being-lag Up '' ' The Past.' r,- : Mrs. ?flut" ia our pext-door neighbor.; Her real name Is G roe but Jona, whenever be sees h marcbiogi up the waUt,eniark "My j. near, here comes Mrs. 'Bur."
