Oar Taleit aid Energy Cntiiaei U Leave tt Biild aid Dereltp Other States We have frequently called atten tion to the adage, "North Carolina is a good place to be born and a good place to leave," we have inquired for the cause and railed for the rem edy. So much do we regret such a state of affairs and so much wish not to believe it, that we have often been tempted to defend the converse of the latter part of the statement, yet veritable proof forces us to submit that there is something in it. The pages of our country's history is largely sprinkled with the names of men who were born in North Caro lina but became famous in other Stales; and to-day there is in every State of thi Union North Carolina blood.cnergyand talent ranking high in the professions and devoted to building up other plat es and devel oping other resources. This State must (the duty and necessity is im perative) put itself in a condition to keep its young men at home by com manding their talents and remuner ating their efforts. Within the last few months, several such young men, under our own personal obser vation, have thrown their lots in other quarters of this great country. The last to go was a young man from our own town, our esteemed person al friend, W. 3. Thomson. He re gretted to go, as much as we regret ted (o see him leave, but we could not find the arguments to advise him nay; but since he has gone, we wish abundant success, (which he so richly deserves) in the quarter he has decided to cast his fortune. He is a young man of strong parts, with sterling integrity and of high social standing. He goes to Cordele, Geor gia, a new but booming town, to grow up with it. The growth of this town has been almost magical. Two years ago there was not a building on the site ; to-day it is much larger than Clinton, having a population of 2,000. It has a half dozen manu facturing establishments (and here is one of the results of its marvel ous growth) two banks, a sixty thou sand dollar hotel and is already a railroad center, having five outlets by rail. It is not necessary to say that the people are public-spirited, enterprising, ever pushing and ever on the alert, for otherwise such re sults could not be accomplished. To the enterprising citizens of this pro gressive town (soon to be a city) we wish to commend our friend, W. S. Thomson, to be a man iu every way worthy of their confidence and es teem, to which, when once -they know him, his conduct and worth will sufficiently testify. Can North Carolina not profit by such experience and such lessons ? No State in the Union can raise bet ter men, no State succeeds in driv ing luore of them from her borders, and no State succeeds in decently starving more of those who persist in remaining. -mt Vick's Floral Guide for 1891.

Jackson a, very clever young gentleman, is to be on Wed nesday, Jan. 28th, joined in the holy bonds of materimony to Miss Lupluna Barefoot- A Leader in the Senate. During the absence of the editor of this paper wc take the liberty to clip from tht Lexington Ledger the following complimentary notice paid him by the Raleigh correspon dent of that paper: The Joint Committee on Rail road Commission has been appoint ed. This committee, which is the most important one in the General Assembly, has the duty of formula ting a bill which will oe introduced into the Legislature. Senator Ma rion Butler, of Sampson, is chair man ( f the Senate branch of the committee. Mr. Butler is a young man, only 27 years of age, who fought his way to the front in the recent campaign as the representa tive of the great agricultural class, and is their recognized leader in the Senate: He is a graduate of the State University, has read law (though he is not a practising at torney,) is editor of The Clinton Caucasian, and cane to the Senate through more opposition, probably, than any other member of that body. The lawyers, politicians and corporations all tried to down him, but the people were for him. This is Mr. isutier's nrst experience as a law-maker, but native ability, a clo-e attention to men and affairs, varied information, energy and de termination, make him at once a valuable and wise legislator. It has been whispered around that his handsome person and "availability' have already captured some of the fair nymphs who dwell amid tho Sylvan scenes of the classic "City of Oaks." Ime majority or tne lawyers iu this place were with the people in supporting Mr. Butler. II. W. B.J A Card. Mr. Editc r : I ask a small space in the columns of The Caucasian for the following : The mileage and the per diem of the County Board of Education and th6 pay of the County Superintend ent lor the year ending June 30th, 1890, was three hundred and ninety- six dollars and seveaty cents. The amount paid the Institute, Including room rent, board of Prof. !Noble and servant's hire, was fourteen dollars and ninety-six cent. I make this statement, not in spirit of controversy or to enter the discussion as to whether the office of County Superintendent and that of the Couaty Board of Education should be abolished or not, but sim ply to correct a misapprehension in tne mmos ot some about these ex penses.

The opening of the first term of this school took p'ace Tuesday, the 13th ult., conducted by the Princi pal, Rev. F. R. Underwood, who read a chapter, which was followed by a fervent prayer by Rev. W. It. Johnson. Then a beautiful hymn "Must Jesus bear the cross alone" was sung, in wtich the entire s-.-hool, patrons and friends, heartily joined, making the walls ef the school-room echo and re echo with the glad re frain of sweetest music. Thn fill- lowed some good speeches, first be- ing a short but pointed talk by the l rincipai, who introduced and called foraspeech from Cant. J. L.Aiitr. that noble and generous-hearted gen- tleman, whose liberality has caused the erection of the school building. He arose, and draw ing his splendid. magnincent lorm to its full heiirht. responded in the most impressive and eloquent language tnnking ihe room resound with a hestriy welcome t all present. Then followed a short but very in structive speech by Rev. Wm it. Johnson, in which he save good ad vice to both old and young, showing the all importance of a good educa tion in all the avocations of life. After this, the Moderator, Mr. Isham Royal was called on for a speech. In his response to the call he seemed to throw his whole noul into the t ilk with which he greeted the ears of the attentive audience. He appeared to be, and in fact s i id "he felt t home" among the pupiis. My descriptive powers fail me when I attempt to describe his speech. Suf fice it to say that I agree with all present on the occasion in the belief that it was the bst speech ever de- nverea Dy the Moderator.

Then I started home, tired and worn, disgusted with medicine, a friend pursaded me to take S.S.S. and I did it more to erratifv him than from any hope of cure, and the first bottle put me far on the road to permanent cure.
