Lomax are both in the city this week, also Ri v. •iaiob Thomas and Presiding Elders J. A. Tyler acd R. S. Rives. By the patiiotism and loyalty of Rev. L. Blackwell and the wisdom of B shop Hood, Zion connection is saved much trouble and annoyance. Persons holding certificates to collect for the Industrial Association will please nacd them in with the amounts collected to J. M. Goode or J. W. Rrown. The Bishop has so altered his appoint ments as to retain Go.-ien at Wadesboro, Simmons at Monroe. Slade at Charlotte and send Bl.ckwell to Statesville. Rev. Dr. J. T. Bagwell of the SI. E. Church, South, has been expelled from the ministry aid the fellowship of his church, for conduct unbecoming a minister. Rev. Z- A. D. Bloice was among the ministers passing through last Tuesday from conference. He ha 3 our thanks for $1.50, for one year’s -übscription to the Messenger. Circumstances over which wc had no control caused the delay of this issue. Ourcity patrons will please pardon us this time and wc will try to be out on time hereafter. The Virginia conference, of the A. AJ. ! E. Zion church, has adopted the Pre siding Elder system, and elected Revs. \ J- If. Manley and J. McH. Farley, '■ presiding elders.

I Bishop Hood is in the habit of giving ; some very hard blows sometimes. Some poor fellow must have felt the force of his words last night in regard to whis key-breath, safety of daughters, Ac. i The members of Clinton Chapel, S. S. are practicing a cantata for Christmas Eve. It is hoped that all the friends will prepare for this occasion, as it is to be given for the benefit of the church. I’or sometime a suit has been pending in tho courts between Mr. Gray Toole on j one side and Springs and Sims on the ; other. Air. Toole won the suit last week, but it will he appealed to the Supreme Court. Alexander A Hargraves gives us a new advertisement this week. They sell cheap at all times, but their Tuesday bargains cxcell anything in the city. For dry goods, go to Hargraves A Alexander. The Young Ladies’ Independent Club wishes to deny the rumor that they arc not allowed to associate with persons not members of said club They wish to be friendly and have Ihe friendship of other, as in the past. If there is a person in Zion opposed to Elder Slade, it is earnestly hoped, for the sake of Zion, the good of tho church and the persons themselves, that they will be quiet, sober and discreet. Much talk does much harm always. Presiding Elders, R. S. Rives, J. A. Tyler and R. H. Simmons re sin the same districts they had last year. E der A. M. Barrett goes to the Fayetteville district, Elder G. H. Haines to the Statesville, vice Elder H. Williams. The new Legislature of Texas will have three colored members. The new Legislature of No.th Carolina will have twenty colored membe s. There is one thing in which other States are ahead of us. and that is a colored college by the Slate. The emigration fever is still upon our people. Frequently we meet persons who say they are preparing # to go to Li bena and to California. At this time we learn th ro about thr e hundred per sons in the Eastern part of this county, cow waiting to leave for California. Short crops and the hard tenant system has much to do with their going. We fed encouraged and very proud of the improvements in the personnel and workings of the Central Norlh Carolina Conference. The five presiding elders are the peers of the best colored minis-! ters in the South. Among the young of the ministers, we were proud to meet a half-score of our old play-fellows—Revs Bloice, Blackwell, Caldwell, Stitt, Gaskell,Archie and Colbert, are students at Z. W. C., and will prove a blessing t the race. We are in receipt of a copy of the pro ceedings of the State Teachers’ Associa tion, which convened in Kittrell, July Bth. This body seems to be in a posi tion to do much good, end is composed largely of the best men and women in th State. The journal contains a list of the members, the committee", the re ports, lescdulions and papers, read at Ihe meeting in June. Secretary Atkins has opened a registry for the colored te nh ers of the State, tho object of which is to secure positions for teachers. This we think a capital plan All the (etich } eis in the State should send their names ! and fifty cents to Prof. 8. G. A> kins, 1 Salisbury, S. C. Y.

Subscribers to this paper along tho Carolina Central Road, will please pre narc to meet us with their subscription any time after reading this notice. We intend to visit tbe points along this 1 road, also Wilmington and Fayettsville before the holidays. We start out early next week. Raise your money, then get | u a big club for the new year. Need of a Hospital. I With such weather as we have had during this week, one can be very easily i convinced of the necessity for a hospital ;in this town for the colored pc tple. Tiieie is always some suffering among I the poor during t..e Winter in citiis of the size of ours. All are not pr. per sub j jeets for the County poor house, and I they do not get the pr.;per atten.ion there. -Many cases need only a few ’ days attention and help. The ( hristian I char.ty of our citizens will provide a i c ,m( . rtable bemo and hospital for the i | reedy colored people in this cily if the ; proper steps are taken with a united , eilort. Os course there is something for ! us to do, and every one ihoulcl do n.l iu his or her power to h tve a hos, ital and to make it a benefit and credit to our ! race Cur attention has just been called to a rase worthy of mentiou. Last Batur da., night after the snow had been falling ail day, Mr. W. H. Houser, one of our most charitable ci icons had Iris atten tion called toan old colored mac, hun gry and wandering in tho mow with no place to sleep or fr.end to give him* ( food. He bad once been a prosperous) man,but hss lost bis sight and worse for some poor sinner, he had been robbed of a few dollars given him. Mr. Houser took the old man in and made him com fortable. There are many cases of acci dent; a person is shot, injured in rail" road accidents, a stranger is taken sick in our city, and wc have no place for them to go for treatment, except the county poor house in the country. It is hoped that the prayers of these good ladies may be answered and their efforts prove a blessing to the needy iu our midst. The home and hospital for the whites here has proven a great bless ing and our good citizens kindly offer their charity to our people. Resolutions. The following resolutions were passed by an unanimous vote in the church meeting last night after Bishop Hood announced that Elder Slade was re ap pointed to Clinton Chapel: Clinton Chapel, Charlotte, N. C’.. Dec. 10, 1885. Whereas, the Bishop in his Godly judgment appointed Rev. G. L. Black well to the pastoral charge of this church, and, Whereas, the said Rev. Blackwell has seen fit to resign the chaigc, there fore be it, licsolrcc/, That we hold him in the highest esteem as a Christian minister, we 6ball ever be happy to see him in our pulpit, and we hope the time will come when he may receive the appointment to this charge under such circumstances that he will not feel at liberty to decline it. Resolved, That our prayers nliall follow hm to whatever field of usefulness he may be appointed. Grand Fair. The Ebenezer Bapti st Sabbath School will give a fair commencing Tuesday, December 21st and continuing thereafter Wednesday,Thursday and Friday nights in the basement of the church. Change of programme nightly. Admission—lo cents, Children 5 cents. The Peons of Mexioo. A correspondent writing to the New York Evangelist from Mexico, says: “A large class of the population is made up of what are called peons. These are day laborers, and while they are industrious, and in general not morally base, they are ignorant, very poor, and in reality a ser vile class. Having often heard it said that they were slaves, I took pains to make careful inquiry into tho facts of their condition. While the wages of all of this class are very low—only about thirty cents a day—yet such of them as are out of debt are virtually free, though they seldom care to leave the place where they have lived and labored, since they have strong local attachments. But many of them arc not out of debt, in fact, all their lives long are in debt, and these are in a condition which lacks nothing but tbe name of being a condition of slavery. Indeed the very definition of , the word peon is that of a laborer held | in servitude until a debt is discharged, i and as, often, the debt is never discharged, the bondage is life long. Debt is often incurred through the tender sentiments, j A young man wishes to marry. He has not a cent of money laid by,and hence to meet the necessary expenses of his wed- I ding, a largo item in which is the caor mous fee of the prie3t, he must borrow mon- : cy. He cannot do this without selling his labor in advance, whicli amounts to the selling of himself for the sum of money borrowed until full payment is made. As he cau earn but a few cents a day, and must support himself and family out of this miserable pittance, it often hap pens that for years, and sometimes for life, the debt and the consequent servi tude remain. Curious Facts of Dentistry. There is said to be a remai kablo chang6 in the condition oi their teeth among i the negroes at the South since the aboli tion of slavery. This is attributed largely to changes in food, whereby more fine wheat flour and more sweets are eaten than were eaten formerly. In addition to the injurious effects upon one's teeth • from improper food, the Popular Science Neve adds: “Another important case of | dental decay is the undue de nan 1 upon nervous energy, probably often combined with insufficient or improper ailment. I Recent observations have shown that I carious teeth are common in modern schools in proportion to the odu ational standard adopted, and that the chi d en in the h gher grades have (out of all pro portion to their more advanced age) worse teeth than those below them; while caries havo not in'requently been ob served to begin su Idenly, or to extend rapidly,during the period of examination strain.” Her Challenge. The maiden sat so near my arm. Around her waist I threw it. And then, not meaning any harm, I kissed her e’er she knew It She threw an angry glance at me, Her face grew red, and then Bhe frowned and said: “I'd like to see You just try that again!” “Why certaluly. sweet meld,” I said, | I did—could i be blamed! This time she only blushed and seld: ■‘You ought to be ashamed!” —Boston Courier. ( LAND OF THE CZAR. AN AMERICAN'S OBSERVATIONS IN RUSSIA. A Country Whose Frontier is Guard ed at Every Point by Sentinels— Cronstadt's Frowning Guns— Scenes in St. Petersburg. Russia is a sphinx, says Demas Barnes, in the Brooklyn Eagle. She may not in aptly he compared to a great bee-hive, with walls so thick that to outsiders a sound is seldom heard, while within is an intensely active population, whose oc cupation is not merely to gather pollen from Cossack roses on their own vast plains, but whose pinions are capable of flying from the Black Sea on the south to the Arctic Ocean on the north, and from the German Empire in the West of Europe to Behring Straits of Eastern Asia. Neither is the imperial stomach gorged by swallowing small provinces on her own borders, but she gulps down, apparently without discom fort, whole nations, like Poland, Turke stan, and Finland, and now, judging from appearances, she isaboutto establish herself on the Pcrsiau Gulf. A cordon of sentinels guard her frontier at every point, and censors control the press, inspect telegrams, and overhaul the mails. The gauge of railroad tracks is broken at the frontier towns, so that no car nor its commodities can enter or leave the territory without scrutiny. Even her language is a bar to inter course. The Russian alphabet contains thirty-six characters, partly Roman and partly composit. Seeing my own name written in Russian I could not read it. The multiplied vowels and peculiar con sonant sounds effectually prevent a for eigner f.om understanding a word when pronounced, and it is impossible for a foreigner to inquire for a person, town, street or number—a bad place to be lost in. The Russian dictionary contains over 90,000 words. Poetry in such a diluted language would seem to lack that epigrammatic terseness which is essential to convey force and emphasis. To de scribe such a people under such condi tions and at a single sitting is impossi ble. It would require a local residence for years and the entire space of twenty newspapers to convey anything like an adequate idea of tho Russian Empire— the country and its people, to say noth ing of its history. I entered Russia from the north. It would have made no difference had it been from the east, the south or the west. Russia is fortified on all sides, •ot alone by fortresses and big guns, but by a secret espionage which, without being able to locate or describe, is felt, and one insensibly proceeds with cau tion. One is not permitted to leave a car or a boat or to enter a hotel, or again to leave a city, without showing a pass port and having it duly indorsed. Cronstadt is the seaward sentinel of 6t. Petersburg. Seven islands in the middlo of a wide, shallow bay, the islands covered by immense forts, and the channel to be traversed by vessels winding between them, create an im pression that this is not one of Russia’s weak paints. Indeed, one look into the throats of those frowning guns conveys an idea of impregnability. The next impression of strength made upon my mind was by the extent of Russia’s wheat fields. It has so happened that I fol lowed the harvesting of cereals through Bslgium, Denmark, Sweden, and parts of Russia. From the English Channel to the Vrai Mountains, and, I under stand, far beyond them, it seemed to be a nearly unbroken field of yellow grain. America has no longer a corner on wheat. The average crop of the United states is about twelve bushels per acre. If Russia, by reason of poor farming, averages eight bushels per acre, she can, I think, owing to the cheapness of her land and labor, undersell us. Appar ently, she has enough wheat harvested this year to feed th” entire world. Bt. Petersburg m y well be styled the Magnificent City of the Neva. Its streets are broad, buildings massive, parks nu merous, museums interesting, and its monuments grand. I have endeavored to refrain from giving space for reference to pictures, statuary, churches, archi tecture and art, which most travelers describe with minuteness. But a part of the charm and bloom of Eastern coun tries would he wanting wero the icsthetic wholly eliminated from what I say. In front of the Hermitage Museum at St. Petersburg arc ten monolith Siberian mat bio statues supporting the portico, each one of which is fifteen feet high, fully developing in the most ideal man ner Herculean strengih. In this great depository of national wealth, among other things, is a solid jasper vase ten fret broad, sixteen feet long, and about nine feet high. St. Isaac’s Cathedral hat four equal fronts in tbe form of a cross. At each of tfie facades project great por ticos supported by double rows of mon olith columns seven feet in diameter and sixty feet high—sixty four in all. Sub lime y beautiful and in effect upon thi mind not unlike that produced by a view of the Egyptian pyramid!. The River Neva is here about half i mile wide. It is crossed by ten bridges, lighted by gas or electricity. Bcea it tho evening, with miles of similar Hghti reflected in the water from the quayi made busy by hurrying crowds of men, j women, and vehicles, the sight is one ol j exceptional beauty. Driving in the street! of St. Petersburg is something to be re membered. The private carriage! are fine barouches, quite like our own, and | generally drawn by black Tartarian ot j Bulgarian stallion horses. These ani- i raals have long manes and tails, and are driven at a rate of speed that would ! make the Commissioners of Ceqsr.il Park j stare and clear the concourse of people ; in a short time. The drosky is a small four-wheeled, one-horse carriage, very low in the body, seating two passengers, and a driver in front. All drivers weai long surtout coats reaching to their feet, plaited over the hips and hustled behind. The cap is low, broad on top, with i curved rim, exactly like that of a gen tleman’s stovepipe hat Around tho to I of the hat are attached several smal quills or feathers, in numbers according to the Cossack or provincial rank of thi driver. The harness is made of verj small pieces of strong leather. It is at tached to the carriage or wagon b double traces, one to the whiffletroe, and one at the end of tho axletree outside of the hub—an extra precaution against ac cidents. Over the horse’s shoulders and his cellar is raised an ornamental ox bow, about twenty inches in height. Within and on this bow are arranged pretty tas sels and small bells. In Moscow horses attached to omnibuses, hotol coaches and private carriages are driven four abreast. Being conveyed from the depot in one of those Oriental equipages one feels as if he or she were entering the chariot races oi the Olympian feats. Wealth of the Presidents. Os the earlier Presidents, Washiigtan wa3 the wealthiest. When ho died hi! estate at a moderate valuation vu worth $300,000. Adams was a poor man, but independent in his last years, thanks to the good management of his wife. Jef ferson was wealthy when he became President, but lost his property and died insolveut. His home was sold, and his daughter was saved from want by the generosity of Seuth Carolina, which gave her $30,000. Congress bought his library, and with the pro'eeds his debts were paid. All of his decendanti are poor. Madison left a handsome prop erty, ar,d was wealthy when President. Congress bought his manuscript papers, paying $30,000 for them. Sirs. Madi son's son, Payne Todd, squandered her property, and in a few years after her husband's death she was poor. His es tate was valued at $380,000 in 1816. James Monroe died insolvent. He sold his Virginia estate after the death of his wife, and died in New York. John Quincy Adams left $50,000. His successor, Andrew Jackson, was a rich man for his day. The Hermitage, which he left to his adopted son, is now the property of the State. Martin Vanburen left a fine estate value at $300,000. J as. K. Polk left about half this amount, and, as he had no children to make use of it, his widow has enjoyed it since his death. John Tvler was not a rich man. though he owned a fine farm in Y irginia aafS a number of slaves. He had a large fami ly, and was so long in public life that he went to the White Housr poor. What he saved in office enabled him to live in comfort afterwards. His second wife had means, and their eight children weg“ well educated. Mr. Eilmore, by a second marriage, became a wealthy man. Franklin Pierce left no child to in herit his property, which was valued at $50,000. President Buchanan was worth $250,- 000, which he gave to his nephews an/, nieces. Abraham Lincoln’s estate was valued at $75,000. Andrew Johnson had $150,000 when ho left the White House. A part of this amount was lost by tho failure of the Freedman’s Bank. President Grant never had money un til he became Lieutenant-General. His salary and the generous gifts of his friends made him a millionaire. All of his property was lost in the Grant- Ward failure. His wife is indepen dent again through the sale of his book. Hayes is very wealthy. The gifts to Mrs. Garfield made her rich. Her husband left a small prop erty, worth not more than SIO,OOO. Ex-President Arthur is worth about SIOO,OOO. Cleveland has about the same amount.— New York Sun, “The prevalent mania for performing insane feats of endurance appears to have ‘caught on’ iu India,” say- the London St. James's Ornette, “with resulta that m’ght have been anticipated. With an ard nt desire for fame and with stupid originality, a Mohammedan made a wager with a coreligionist that he would stand gazing at the Indian aun for tea hours on end. On the appointed day. at 8 o'clock in the morning, the aspirant to immortality took up his position face to face with tbe sun go<L As tbe hours went by a vast crowd of excited sports men surrounded the man and eagerly looked on whi'e he was suffering visible defeat. At ?, o’clock he fell down in s fit, b aten by three hours, and very shortly afterward he died.” A TEXAN RANCH. ; LIFE ON A STOCK FARM IN THIS SOUTHWEST. A “Tenderfoot's” Experience as De* scribbd by an English Maga zine—Native Hospitality—A Healthful Occupation. From an interesting article in CaeulV* Magazine (London) wo make the follow extracta: However, to return to our young “tenderfoot" as he first appears on the ranch, clothed in a dapper suit, quite ludicrous to Southern eyes, and hit face radiant with hope and self-confi dence. Let us suppose that he owns the surrounding acres, and the live stock thereupon; also that he has sufficient capital for his purpose, and business,” as they say. He bays land for a song, and also sheep or cattle, or both, in what would seem to us enor mous quantities. These animals are kept entirely in thi open air, quite at liberty in the day-time, under the eye of a skilful herder, with horse or dog as assistant; and at night fall they are merely penned into what is called a sheep-corral or a cow-pen, placed in the most sheltered spot available, to be sure, but with only the mesqnita bushes and tall grasses for protection against tbe wind. During the night there is usually a reg* alar watcher to keep off the prqwllng coyotes, and especially if a cow-boy of dubious character is known to be in the neighborhood. The patient watcher sometimes sleeps on tbe bare ground, r» | gnrdless of dews and rattle-snakes; bat i if he is on a large ranch, there will be a I rude dwelling of variable size and (true* lure. Our young gentleman-farmer puts h't different corrals, or cow-herds, in eharg* of subordinates, who may be cither hit friends or his inferiors. He himself will doubtless spend mush of his time in rid ing about from post to post; in fact, ta be a successful farmer he must have a keen eye over all his affairs, and must acquire a good judgment in selecting and managing his stock and his over seers. He may ride for hour; in this semi civilized tract of country without seeing a single habitation, for the houses ara situated from two to fifty miles aparA Wherever he arrives at night he halts outside the gate, awaiting tho invitatio* to dismount, which is always given in*, mediately, but without which it woull be a gross breach of Texan etiquette t# enter the house. The best that the plan* affords is then set before the weary trava eller, and he is offered and accepta a bell for the night. The next morning, after breakfast, he is always expected to rid* away and make room for other possibl* wayfarers. He may give his name <* not, as he chooses. It is probable that the head of th* house may be travelling about at th* tame time on a similar errand. This indiscriminate hospitality <tt house-owners, and the rude honor of th)* guests, is one of the peculiar features of Texan farm-life. Another one is th* great dependence of men upon their horses, owing to the immense distance* to be traversed daily; the result of which is that horse-stealing in this State is r» ; garded and punished as a more heinous 1 crime than murder. i For those who own sheep the “lamb ing season,” of about six weeks in dura tion, is the busiest and most trying tint* -of the year. The climate of Texas has been greatly maligned, and, except upon the coash 1 docs not merit the reputation it be* gained of being unbearably hot in sum* . mer and equally cold in winter. Eve* ' on the coast, during the most trying hot teason there it always a breeze for * touple of hours during the eav’y evening. In the southeastern part of the j State the climate is really delightful; and ss for the fierce winter winds—th? famous l “northers,” so hurtful to beasts—they arc really highly exhilarating to one pot* lessed of an average - onstitution. Indeed, invalids are now sometimes sent to th* vicinity of Ban Antonio. You can see that a hardy young farmer, who lives much in the open air, will greatly benefit his health by such a life; and if he has a taste for his occupation, a certain amount of capital, and stead? business habits, he will in the course of a few years return to his family (that is if he does not bring them to Texas) richer in money, hedth, and individual force, in' romantic experience and knowledge of hii fellow-men.
