THE KAlLItOA1 COMMIS
SION AT WORK.
Col. Fred. Olds given the follow
ing information about the workings
of the Commission :
The Railway Commission has is
sued its first order. It requires the
Richmond and Danville railway to
remedy the changes of pasenger
cais at Salisbury and Greensboro.
A passenger c ir is to run through
from Paint Rock to Goldsboro with
out change. The railway will read
ily obey the order. Major Wilson,
chairman of the Commission, was
asked If the car could not go right
ou through to Morehead City, lie
said that would in all probability be
arranged.
The Commission has prepared the
following ciicular letter to all rail
ways: "Your attention is called to
sections 20,21 and 22 of the Rail
way Commission Act. We trust
that your depots and stations are al
ready or may soon be placed in Huch
a condition as to promote the securi
ty, convenience and accommodation
of the people, that there may be no
just cause for complaint." This
calls the attention of the' roads to
matter of placing their depots in
good shape for the convenience of
the public.
It having been brought to the no
tice of the Commi sion thsit discrim
inations have been practiced by the
Western Union Telegraph Company,
a notice was .ent to them to tix a
uniform rate of tolls. It was alleged
that the toll from Morgan ton to Ral
eigh is forty cents, while from Ashe
ville to Raleigh it is only twenty
five cents.
The Commissioners have agreed
upon their rules of practice. These
are practically those of the Inter
State Commission, with some alter
tions by this Commission and some
suggested by the rules of the Geor
gia Commission.
The Railway commission llnds
that there are over sixty railways in
operation in the State, including
branches.
Since the above was in type the
Commissioners have issued a second
order, making a general reduction
in freights and passenger rates to go
into effect June .10th. The railroads
will be given a hearing to show
cause (if they can) whv these rates
ehould not go into effect. Com
plaint must bo made to the Commis
sioners of discriminations and over
charges, for otherwise they will not
know of it.
CUMBERLAND FAIR.
At the last meeting of the Cum
berland County Agricultural Socie

been one of the most creditable and

hibits in the State, and we now ex

The News and Observer of last
Friday contained the following item:
Mr. James Moseley lias quite a
poultry yard m the rear ot his store,
and he has a hen which yesterday
topped the record with an egg which
weighed six ounces. This hen usu-
allv lays ordinary sized eggs, but the
egg she laid yesterday far surpassed
any thing on record in the egg-laying
business. It was four times as large
as an ordinary every day egg. This
egg story can be vouched for by re-
liable witnesses.

Dear Mb. Editor: lam away
from my native county and, though
I can't see a copy of your paper, yet
I would like to speak a few words
to my good Sampson friends th ough
your columns and let the people
know that "Cross Eyed Sam" is not
yet dead, but seeing things myste
rious every day.
I was somewhat surprised to see
cotton up ready for chopping in this
county nearly a week ago. A great
deal of cotton is being planted in
this county.
I spent a night with Mr. David
Stewart. He is 77 years old, has
seen his seventh generation and was
in the Mexican war of 1841. 1'as
had 20 children, 13 living. Has 20
great-grand children and 75 or SO
grand children. His youngest son
is 5 years old. Has been married 3
times and is well and hearty now.
Has rever bought a bushel of corn
nor a pound of meat for his own use.
Has never taken but one dose of
doctor's medicine in his life. He
has hopes to live longer, tor I sold
him a lot of peach trees.
I have seen a house owned by a
Mr. Weeks, of Johnston, 80 years
ago, the 'tails made of wrought iron
in a blacksmith's shop near by. I
would suppose that it cost eight or
'en thousand dollars to complete it.
It is a spacious building to day.
Wishmg Tiik Caucasian- success,
I am, respectfully,
"Cross-Eyed Sam."

April 27th, 1891.
Our friend, Mr. Swinbum, of Rose
boro, in last week's issue, asked us
the question "Why does the young
druggist of Roseboro visit Autry
ville so often?" Now we do notlifce
to say, as we have never asked him,
and don't want to be prying into
other people's affairs, but judging
from what we have heard, and in
fact from pers ma' observation we
may say that his visits are doubtless
due to the charms possessed by one
of the fair nymphs who helps by her
presence to adorn the society ot An
tryvllle. Mr. Cotton 1 all, who has been
quite sick for some days, we are glad
to say is convalescent.
Ho, ye. turpentine men, bring it

We were pleased to see Prof. Ran
kin with several of his pupils from

day. Mad dogs are all the go now, or
rather all the people go io get away
from them. -Sometime ago a cow
owned by Mr. William Sessoms was
bitten by one and soon showed symp-
tons of hydrophobia and was killed.
A few days later some hogs owned

"The Lord gave and the Lord
hath taken away" is the proper sen
ment and language of every believer
in the christian religion; for has not
the Master said, by way of comfort
a .d encouragement, both by cove
nant and the gate of death, "suf
fer little children to come unto
me, and forbid them not, for of such
is the kingdom of heaven." Then
let us moderate our griet and cease
our tears when the angel of death
calls for our precious jewels, for
they are only removed from the em
brace of earthly arms and lender af
fections to the arms and loving care
of our heavenly father, who sent
His son into the world to save such.

When what we now deplore,

"What mean ye by these . stonesf
(.Toshua iv, C).
The Jordan, like the Mississippi, has
bluffs on the one side and flats on the
other. Here and there a sycamore
shadows it. Here and there a willow
dips into it It was only a little over
waist deep in December as I waded
through it, but in the months of April
and May the snows on Mount Lebanon
tiiaw and flow down into the valley,
and then the Jordan overflows its
banks. Then it is wide, deep, raging
and impetuous. At this season of the
year I hear the tramp of forty thou
sand armed men coming down to cross
the river. You say, why do they not
go np nearer the rise of the river at
the old camel ford? Ah I my friends,
it is because it is not safe to go around
when the Lord tells us to go ahead.
The Israelites had been going around
forty years, and they had enough of it
I do not know how it is with you, my
brethren, but I have always got into
trouble when I went around, but al
ways got into safety when I went
ahead.
TOE COLD AXD UCSHIXa JOIiDAX.
There spreads out the Jordan, a rag
ing torrent, much of it snow water just
come down from the mountain top;
and I see some of the Israelites shiver
ing at the idea of plunging in, and one
soldier says to liis comrade, "Joseph,
can you swim?" And another 6ays, "If
ve get across this stream m fa
there with wet clothes and with dam-
aged armor, and the Canaanites will
slash us to pieces with their swords be
fore wo get up the other bank." But
it is no time to halt. The great host
marches on.
The priests carrying the ark go
ahead ; the people follow. I hear the
tramp of the great multitude. The
priests have now come within a stone's
throw of the water. Yet still there is
no abatement of the flood. Now they
have come within four or five feet of
the stream, but there is no abatement
of the flood. Bad prospect 1 It seems
as if these Israelites that crossed the
desert are now going to be drowned in
sight of Canaan. But "Forward 1" is
the cry. The command rings all along
the line of the host "Forward 1"
Now the priests have come within one
step of the river. This time they lift
their feet from the solid ground and
put them down into the raging stream.
No sooner are their feet there than
Jordan flies.
Un the right hand uod piles up a
great mountain of floods, on the left
the water flows off toward the sea. The
great river for hours halts and rears.
The back waters, not being able to
flow over the passing Israelites, pile
wave on wave, until perhaps a seabird
would find some difficulty in scalinj
the water cliff. Now the priest an
all the people have gone over on dry
land. The water on the left band side
by this time lias reached the sea, and
now that the miraculous passage has
been made, stand back and see this
stupendous pile of waters leap. God
takes his hand from that wall of floods,
and like a hundred cataracts they
plunge and roar in thunderous triumph
to the sea.
How are they to celebrate this pas
sage? Shall it be with music? I sup
pose the trumpet and cymbals were all
worn out before this. Shall it be with
banners waving? Ohl no; they are all
faded and torn. Joshua cries out : "I
will tell you how to celebrate this:
build a monument here to commemo
rate the event ;" and every priest puts a
heavy stone on his shoulder, and
marches out and drops that stone in
the divinely appointed place. I
the pile growing in height, in breadth,
in significance; and in after years
men went by that spot and saw this
monument, and cried out one to an
other, in fulfillment of the prophecy of
the text, "What mean ye by these
stonesf
WITHOUT THE LORD BUXLDtSG 13 VAES.
Blessed be God, he did not leave our
church in the wilderness 1 We have
been wandering about for & year and a 1
half worshiping in the Academy of Mu
sic, Brooklyn, and the Academy of Mu

would never reach the promised land.
Some said we had better take this

we had - better go hack, and some
said there were sons of Anak in the way
that would eat us np, and before the
smoke had cleared away from the sky
after our Tabernacle had been con
sumed people stood on the very ate of
the place and said, '"This church will
never again be built"
We came down to the bank of Jor
dan; we looked off upon the waters.
Some of the sympathy that was ex
pressed turned out to be snowwater
melted from the top of Lebanon. Some
aid, "You had better not go in; yon
I will get your feet -wet." But we waded
1 in, pastor and people, farther and iar-
i i - ,

It is an outrage to build a house like
this, so vast and so inagniflcent. unless
iiere be some tremendous reasons for
dom it: and so mr friend i tmhia
you tonight with the question of my

text, and I demand of these trustees
rad of these elders and of all who have
contributed in the building of this
structure, "What mean ye by these
Tories f But before I get your answer
to my question yon interrupt me, and
point to the memorial wall at the side
3f this pulpit, and say, "Explain that
dn usual group of memorials. What
mean you by those stones P By per
cussion of the people of my beloved
Charge I recently visited the Holy
lAnds, and having in mind by day and
night during my absence this rising
house of prayer, I bethought myself,
"What can I do to make that place
significant and glorious."
On the morning of December the
3d we were at the foot of the most
sacred mountain of all the earth, Mount
Calvary. There is no more doubt of
the locality than of Mount Washington
or Mont Blanc. On the bluff of this
mountain, which is the exact shape ol
the human skull, and so called in the
Bible "The place of a skull," there is
loom for three crosses. There I saw a
stone so suggestive I rolled it down the
lull and transported it It is at the top
of this wall, a white stone with crim
son veins running through it the white
typical of purity, the crimson sugges
tive of the blood that paid the price of
our redemption. We place it at the
top of the memorial wall, for above all
Jn this church for all time, in sermon
and song and prayer, shall be the sacri
fice of Mount Calvary. Look at it
That stone was one of the rocks rent at
the crucifixion. . That heard the cry,
4It is finished." Was ever any church
on earth honored with such a memo
rial? MOUNT SINAI AND MAKS HILL.
. Beneath it are two tables of stone
which I had brought from Mount
Sinai, where the law was given. Three
camels were three weeks crossing the
desert to fetch them. When at Cairo,
Egypt, I proposed to the Christian
Arab that he bring one stone from
Mount Sinai, he said, "We can easier
bring two rocks than one, for one must
balance them oh the back of the
camel;" and I did not think until the
day of their arrival how much more
suggestive would be the two, because
the law was written on two tables of
words "Mount Sinai" felt the earth
quake that shook the mountains when
the law was given. The lower stone of
the wall is from Mars Hill, the place
where Paul stood when he preached
that famous sermon on the brother
hood of the human race, declaring,
"God hath made of one blood all na
tions." Since Lord Elgin took the
famous statuary from the Acropolis,
the hill adjoining Mars Hill, the Greek
government makes it impossible to
transport to other lands any antiquities,
and armed soldiery guard not only the
Acropolis but Mars Hill
That stone I obtained by special per
mission from the Queen of Greece, a
most gracious and brilliant woman,
who received us as though we had been
old acquaintances, and through Mr.
Tricoupis, the pi ime minister of Greece,
and Mr. Snowden, our American minis
ter plenipotentiary, and Dr. Manatt,
our American consul, that suggestive
tablet was sawed from the pulpit of
rock on which Paul preached. Now
you understand why we have marked
It 4 "The Gospel." Long after my lips
shall utter in this church their last mes
sage, these hps of stone will tell of the
law and the sacrifice and the gospel.
This day I present them to this church
and to all who shall gaze upon them.
Thus you have my answer to the ques
tion, "What mean you by these stones ?"
But you cannot divert me from the
Question of the text as I first put it I
bave interpreted these four memorials
on my right hand, but there are hun
dreds of stones in these surrounding
walls and underneath us, in the founda
tions, and rising above us, in the
towers. The quarries of this and trans
atlantic countries, at the call of crowbar
and chisel, have contributed toward this
structure. "What mean ye by these
stones?"
You mean among other things that
they shall be an earthly residence for
Christ Christ did not have much of a
home when he was here. Who and
where is that child crying? It is Jesus,
born in an outhouse. Where is that
hard breathing? It is Jesus, asleep on
a rock. Who is that in the back part
of the fishing smack, with a sailor's
rourh overcoat thrown over him? It
b Jesus the worn out voyage-. O Je
sus! is it not time that thou hadst a
house? We give thee this. Thou didst
give it to us first, but we give it back
to thee It is too good for us, but not
half good enough for thee.
Oh, coine in, and take the best seat
here. Walk up and down all these
aisles. Speak through these organ pipes.
Throw thine arm over us in
arches. In the flaming of these brack
ets of fire speak to us, saying, "I am the

Text Matthew 13th chapter, 3Mlt
verse: "Tho field is the world."
feubject : "The ere. t malady of Chris-
tianily." He said : The field is
the world." What docs it mean?
The world Ls the field in whlrh in
work, In which to sow the seeds of
Christianity, in which to reap the
precious fruits through Christ, for
the glory of God's kingdom. Not
your own country, not your own
State, not your own county, not your
own community, hut the world is
the field for your labors if vou are a
child of (Sod and a worker In the
vineyard. Notwithstanding the
plain, unmistakable and iMisItive
command cf Christ, hi command as
he was about to quit this sin-ridden
world, to which !.e came, and for
which he tuflered and died. vea.
notwithstanding the command, "Go
into all the world and preach the
Gospel M was nearly 1000 years ago,
yet it has been only recently that a
m.ejudiced, selfish and ungrateful
world has heralded he nartinL'
word of a Saviour, selfsacrificine
and bleeding for our lor the world's
redemption.
I might say that the Presbyterian
Church Is in the lead executing this
great command, but I will only claim
that it is in the front rank and sec
ond to none in its efforts to accom
plish the great work of spreading
the gospel in heathen lands. Yet.
though the Church is to-day a leader
in the foreign minion caus, it was
lass than a hundred years airo that
it lurneu us nacK upon tnc cause
;i i .1 1 . . m
when presented to it. 1 1 thcasscm
bly of the Presbyterian Church of
fecotiand 197, a motion was made
that the Church raise a fund to spread
the gospel in foreign lands. The
vigorously opposed. Such a great
preacher &s George Hamilton, hick
ed and seconded by such a prominent
layman a-lawyer David Boyle were
among the leaders of the opposition.
The proposition in spite of the plain
isew I est anient injunction wa-j over
whelimngly voted down. They
claimed that the idea wa preposte
rous, and that no member sh ni'.d he
countenanced who would dare make
a proposition to take up a collection
lor such a purpose. Their souls were
circumscribed by narrow bounds.
they could not tolerate the word
foieign" and they had no heart for
"missions" outside of their own
small horizons. It was less than fifty
years ago, and within twenty-five
miles ot this place that a motion
was made in a Baptist Association to
appoint a certain preacher, and pay
him a certain price to travel, preach
as a missionary (not to foreign parts)
bui in destitute parts of their Asso
ciation, '.his pioposition was
promptly met and vigorously opitos
led, and the motion was lost by a
large majority. Before the Associa-
tion adjourned a certain member who
detected the work ol prejudice In
the delcat of tho first motion, made
a motion that a certain preacher (the
same preacher) be appointed at a
certain salary (the same salary) to
work as an Mineral. t preacher In the
destitute portions of the Assoc! dion
me red shirt oL the missionary be-
ing left i'ff, the ire of the bull of pre
judice was not aroused, so the nio-
tion passed without any trouble.
But if the word "foreign" or the
word mif-sionary'? had appeared in
the motion, down it would have
gone. It has been only a few years
since then, but the world is progress
ing fasit. Lnder a brighter light of a
true and purr Christianity, narrow
and false notions are passing away.
But still to-day, there is yit stern
oppeit on among even God's eople
to foreign missions. es opposition
among God's people to God's com
mand. A startling paradox, a terri
ble fact ! They do not come out and
attempt to oppose our effort to carry
out the divine command, but thev
meet us and pass by the divine com
mand with stolid indifference.
TJIttEE CAUSES.
For every effect, result or cor.di
tion there i. a cause. What is the
cause of the church's lethargy the
latent opposition of its member to
this great neglected work. As they
appear to me there are three causes :
First is
SELFISHNESS.
Man by nature i a seifi-di animal,
all men are selfish. -Selfishness is a
sin. Naturally man Is selfish, natu
rally man is sinful. There s no such
thing as a feood ln and a bad sin.
but there are bad ?insand worse sins;
so fconie men are seinsu anu nome ate
more selfish. Men are felflsh inbus-
iness, selfish in politics, selfish in so
ciety, ' elfish in all the affairs of life.
Men make tor themselves vatlous
systems of Theology. One system
they call Theocentric, they place God
for the centerof this system; another
system they call Christocentric, they
place Christ as the center; another
may be called Autocenti ic, they place
