TLo recent llods have
n-rouJit havoc and desolation
in mnny parts ol our country.
Bridges on many of the princi
pal lines of railroad have been
washed away and traflic and
transportation greatly hindered.
Aloii' the Connnrtiurh river in
Pennsylvania tli results havo
been most di.-2sti.u.-. On this
river was s'tualed the latest
artiHe'aJ lake In th' country,
iind when the Mirin waters

thti up cnmtiy the 'lain tfavc
way and truiu-H of desolation
and death beyond di i-er.ption
followed. The town of .Johns

fare of tho earth almost in an
instant and a reat number of
it; unfortunate inhabi tant.s per-i-l.-d

enil Hayings who has charge of
every tiling, .-tated this morning that
In' hij -posed that tfieie were at hast
two thousand people under the; burn
ing dfbri-s, but the only way to find
out how many lives were lost was
t.i take a census of the people now
living, and subtract that troni tlie
c-'iill he fore the flood. It is a mo.-t
distres-ing vi:;lit to see the relatives
of people who are supposed to be
lost standing around watching ei :!i
b dy as it is pulled out, and acting
more like maniacs than sine people.
The water has subsided to a great
extent and the .streets in the main
part of town are free from .water.
The falling water has l.ii I bare the
terrihle work of the Hood,, and the
full extent of the terrible disaster
is only b'nig ascertained now. The
streets are one sickening, foul smell
ing mass of wood and debris, and
the work of searching for dead bodies
lias only begun.
The latest estimates put the loss of
life at from ten to twelve thousand.
It is impossibl" to get any account
of the number lost.
Thousands of dollars have been
raised all over the country and
sent to ths relief of those who
were scared, and a sanitary com
mission has been sent by Presi
dent Hairison to direct the re
moving and burying of the de
caying animal llesli, to pr3vent

Chapel Hill, C, June 4th.
Chapel Iltil is a lovely and
delightful place at all times,
especially so at this season of
the year. Hut the fact that this
is the Centennial Commence
ment gives to the place and the
University an additional inter
est. A large crowd is already
1 lore and it will be simply tre
mendous by Thursday.
liishop Duncan, of South Car
olina, preached tho liaccalau
reate Sermon to the graduating
class yesterday. Probably the
most interesting fi atir e of the
week took place this morning
ths Classday oxc'cises by the
Seniors.
This afternoon the speech by
the representatives of the soci
eties were delivered in the Me
morial Hall. To-night the re
unions of all the members of
the societies will be interesting
and enjoyable.
To-morrow will be givcu up
"entirely to tho Centennial Exer

will be delivered by Senator
Ransom. At 12 M. will be the
meeting of the . luinni Associa

trustees will be present, and al
so delegatis from other colleges,
a number of whom will ba in
attendance from the leading in
stitution of the country. The
members of each clas will sit
together, and there will be
speeches and talks. It is ex
pected that this will be one of
tho most entertaining events of
the celebration. At 8 P. M.
there will be special memorial
exercises with a roll call of the

June 3rd, lss'.i.
A meeting of the corporators
of the Payettevdle it Albemarle
railroad is called for June l"th,
for tf.e purpose of organizing
under the charter. An organi
zation and a small sum of mon
ey seen es this road for this city.
The commencement exercises
of the State Colored Normal
School in this city took place
last week. Prof. J. F. K. Sim
mons delivered the address. A
number of white people attend
ed and say the exercises were
ve:y ci editable.
Mr. J. M. Lamb's little son
seven years o!d was shot in the
chest by a little neg o bov who
was fooling with a pistol. The
negro ran awav but ihe little
boy is getting well.
Over loO accessions have been
made to the various churches
he e since the Petisou meeting
More are being made every Sun
day, and the total will not fall
far short of 200.
Rev. F. R. Underwood, of
Samp.-on, filled the pulpit of
Rev. It. T. (J ray, of the llaptist
Church, and M : (J ray tilled Mr.
Undo wood's. We have heard
several speak of M Unde.
wood's sermon ;ti being thought
ful and oiuate.
The C. F. it- Y. V. railroad
is abreast of the times. The
I lay Street crossing h is been
furnished with the litest im
proved railway crssing gates.
As a train approaches the gates
fali, extending across the street,
and a gong strikes to warn peo
ple of the approach. It is a
protection the pblic have need
ed for a long time.
The North bound train on the
C. F. & Y. V. railroad ran over
an old colored woman on last
Wednesday. She was alive at
last accounts.
An adjourned mooting of the
citizens for perfecting arrange
ments for the Centennial next
Xovember was held Thursday
af'ernoon. The committee an
nounced that Senator Matt. W.
Ransom has. accepted the invi
tation to deliver the oration.
The committee of o0 will meet
this week and sub committees
be appoirted. A letter from
ex-President Davis since the
meeting conveys the gratifying
news that his first letter was
pioperly construed as he intends
to be here, and may be expect
ed. A private letter f.om him
also assures that he will be he e.
So what doubt there was is dis
sipated. Fayelteville will cel
ebrate this occasion on a big
scale, because it commemorates
a big thing and she will have
big men with her.
A numbei" of teaches from
here will attend the meeting of
the Assembly at Morehead City.
We learn that one or two are
bound for the European trip.
John Reynolds is in jail on
the charge of assaulting a ten
year old girl. This makes two
prisoners in the jail a'vaiting
trial at the July term of court
for similar charges.
The completion of the Max
ton & Rowland railroad gives
this city an all rail connection
with Charleston, South Carolina.
It is hoped tbi will hurry the
completion of the Short Cut
South of here. There is onlj
a gap. of 25 miles.
There is a general desire here
that a military school be estab
lished. There is a good deal of
talk and nothing is needed but
a competent man 'with nerve
and pluck, and we will have a
great success.
Iluckleherrios have made
their appearance on this mar
ket. They are very nice, but
not equal to the celebrated
"Sampson Blues."
Your correspondent real wiih
a great deal of pleasure the ac
count of the closing exercises
of Salem High School, together
with the sketch of Hon. Kemp
P. Rattle's address. The bene
fits of such a school can not be
estimated in dollars and cents.
Mr. W. P. Fife's little girl,
j'essie, died on last Sunday af
ternoon. She had been a great
but patient little sufferer. Mr.
Fiftf has determined to become
an evangelist and will leave in
a short while for Asheville,
where he wi'l study during the
summer with Rev. 11. G. Pear
son, who ha- become a warm
friend of his. His family will
remain here.
The fine rains came in good
time, as the crops were suffer
ing. There was some too much
in this county.
This is the Centenn al of the
University's charter existence,
but not of its real existence.
The charter was granted in 1789,
but was sixjyears before its. doors
were, open to students This
centennial ought to be followed
by one ou a still grander scale
l in 1895.

besides, the farmer 1a today
truly in a better condition than
the factory hand a'ul laborers
in all other vocations of life.
Mythology tells ns that Hercu
les could never conquer Auliu,
son of fellus, until hn allu
hi in away from mother earth,
from which he received h's
s'rength. So the hone.t, Indus
trious and Intelligent fanner
can never fail till he is allured
into other professions.
8th. Farming inspires a love
for freedom and libertv in its
broadest seme, therefore it is
an antidote to the centializing
tendencies of the day. There
fore they are justified in form
ing alliances or any similar or
ganization to check such leud
ences. Our Constitnt'on has al
ways found its staunchest defen
de s in the farming class. It
makes no difference where the
farmer is, nor under w hat con-'
ditions and ciicumstauces he
may be, vet he i:s always the
qirckest to resent oppression
and therefo'e it is to be hoped
that the South will never lose
its charade', istics as an agricul
tural section.
9th. There never was a time
when the e was such a tenden
cy to skepticism. Farming is
the antidote to this, for a con
s' ant communion with nature
natu rally leads its votaries up
to a noble religion. The fa-mer
with a heart and soul and the
least sensibility "finds God eve
rywhere and in every th -rig."
Lastly, in farming (or rathe.
in the garden) was f und the
blessing j of married life.
This advice comes last, but
would profitably be put into
practice first.
At this point a liavy shower
came up and stopped the inimita
ble speaker just as he was about
to regale the young people with
a treat which they would have
re.-.iembered and enjoyed, not
only through courtship and hon
eymoon, but even all through
married life.
A review like the aoove is
necessarily very imperfect, for
it is impossible to do such a
speech justice ou paper. You
who did not hear him havo lost
his genial manner and facinat
ing delivery, the presence of
which makes a ioor speech su
premely interesting and the ab
sence of which makes a good
one tainw and dull.
