SIX SENSES

One of tbe Rreatest diecover'.eB of

senses. What the lost sense was tic

will ever know. But that cur fore

f ir the romaina of that part of tte

little oval lobes joined totrelhir, and
lying in a little cavity of the skull,

It is quito poeaibla that it may
have enabled our forefathers to see
.. in the dark before lamps and can

The negro editor, Manly, was no
where to be seen nnd it is thought
lb it he hr.3 skipped for good.
Ool. Wnddell was the le:ider of the

Mrs. Margaret Barrier, relict of
the late Eaniel Hairier, of near Mt,
Plecsactf died Tuesday evening at
the borne of Mrs. M E Welsh in Mt
Pleasant, Tne deceased was sixty
four years of age. Recently she had
snffored from some heart malady
nd the end, though not looked for
at the monent, wag not entirely un
expected .
Mrs. Barrier was the mother of
sevtn living children, viz: Mrs. L
A Lenlz, of Norwood; Mra..W M
Miller of Jifferson, S. 0.;
Mrs. M E tfelsh, Mr. D D
Barrier, Mrs. Dr. W 8 Bow
man, Mrs. 0 G Iloilig and Mr.
George Barrier, all of Mt. Pleasant,
One sou Mr. L W Barrier, died
juBt at manhood.
The deceased waa a good, kind
and indulgent mother, a consistent,
devoted and faithful member of the
Lutheran branch of the Christian
cbnrch and a friend and neighbor,
loved and esteemed by all. She
doubtless er joyed tu a rare degree
the freedom from an earthly enemy.
Ilor Inneral was conducted allloly
Trinity church today, (Thursday) at
11 o'clock by her pastor, Rev. J A
Linn, and the remains were laid to
rest by those ef her late hnaband in
the Lutheran cemetery. Her hus
band preceded her to tbe grave nears
ly twelve years.
We join a large circle of friends
and relatives in condolence to the
bereayed family while we take pleass
uro in reflecting that the dear mother
wus not taken from them till all had
arriyed at mature years.

ORDEK OUT OF CHAOS.
Col. A. n. Waddell May or of Wllmlnc
ton Eleyen Dead Hegroee and
Three Wonndrd White Ben the
Prlofc of the White Han'a tuovern
ment. The Wilmington affair briefly told
is about as follows:
The oitizens in en orderly way but
under the sting of greet wroags and
feeling that the government of the
oity was impotent or disinclined to
aff rd protection to life and prop
erty, both of which were threatened
by the negroes assembled and by reso
lution demanded the resignation of
the city government. They also de
manded of the negro editor Manly
td remove his printing equipments
from the city of Wilmington within
24 honrs. There was nothing empty
in these demands. Tbe old city
government resigned in perfect order
only a few at a time Thursday
afternoon. Their resignations were
accepted and their places filled by
men nominated by the citizens'
committee.
Ool. A M Waddell was elected
mayor. Two hundred and fifty exs
tra policemen were sworn in,
Defore all thh, howeyer, in tbe
moreing, COO men proceeded to tne
Rooord cffi?e and demolished taut
print chop. It was set oa fire either
accidentally or by some rash person.
It was not tbe intention to burn tbe
building. It is ruined though. The
negross qnit the'r work in the
morning when trouble began and
were threatening. From a sworn
testimonial by an eye witness not
participating it is shown that a ne
gro fired first, wounding a white
man in the hand. Very Boon there
was a f usilade in which three negroes
were killed. At different times and
places smaller difficulties occurred
till the roil stands eleven negioes
killed and three white men soudded,
one Mr. Wilkaui Mayo was shot
through (ha Juns by a retreating
negro. The wound is very seriou",
but may not prove fatal. The ne
gro was followed, caught nnd killed.
It is believed that the troubles are
practically over and that Mayor
Waddell and his new oity govern
ment will be able to cope with the
sitnation.
THE OUIEF DEVIL OF ALL.
Htroiic Word Well Nald By tbe
NtateavJIle Landmark..
"'The two worst ennmiea that
North Carolina has in this great
crisis of tbe white citizens of the
State are Jeter Pritchurd, United
States Senator from North Carolina,
and Dan Russell, Governor of Nortb
Carolina.' "
We find the above in a contempo
rary. It was written and printed
before the elections. Yes, Pritch
ard and Ruseell are bad enough in
all consoienoe, aud so are Thompson
Hoi ton, Ayer and all the other lead-,
era of the fusion deviltry. But we
desire to go on reoord here and now
as saying that we have had litte pa.
tience with thepolioy of the cam
paign which has sought to place all
the icfimy on Prltcbard and Russell
et al, and their ignorant negro
dopes, while the very chief of them
all the most infamous of them all
Marion Butler, is allowed to go
practically witCout blame. Tbe
others are bai enough, God know,
and tho wrongs tbey haye done the
State should and will haunt them to
their graves, but we believe in glv
ing even tbe devil his dura and in
placing the responsibility where it
belongs.
Erery man of intelligence in the
State knows that Butler is raaponei"
ble for the conditions which now exs
ist and which have existed in tbe
State for four years. The others
Lave given as.-is'ance to tbe beU r.f
their ability, it is true ; but surpass
ing all of them in ability and cspaci
ty to engineer and prou.ote the eudd
wbich gave tbe fueionlsts 6ucceaa,
he worked out the plot to its suc
cessful conolusion and to him is due
the infamy of its success.
It was Marion Butler who, by per.
sistently and ssaiduously iostilling
prejudioe and bate into a portion of
the people whose confidence he had
succeeded in winning, divided the
white people in 'cJ'i. It was he who,
step by step, led his foroes into a cos
alition with the Republicans and
negroes in '94 and '1)6 and thus
elected Pritchard to the Senate and
Russell Governor. It ws Butler
who, realizing that the conditions
which he had h: ought about in
North Carolina; realizing tbat the
bores', white people of the State cf
all partiea would not long tolerate
the infamous dynasty which be bad
Set up, but would come together and
overthrow it ; and knowing that if it
ffjs overthrown he would be crushed
in its ruins it was Boiler .who
sought by overtures last spring to
unite with tbe Democrats on condi
tion that he be allowed to dominate
them ai be had dominated and
traded anon his handful of follow
err .
When his proposition wes soomcd
Butler, filled with venom end bate,
went up and down tho State in this
oampaign and made the meanest
speeches by far tbat any white man
has made in North Carolina. Pos
sessed of all the arts of the dema
gogue, hllea with Insatiable amui
tion, greed, malice, hatred and re
venge, he used every means within
his power to so incite and inflime
his followers that; tbey would once
again vote with the negroes and the
Republicans to keep in power the
infamona gang whioh now controls
tho Stato, and to humble the De.jo1
crats and if psiblc bring them to
bis (Ca'.!er6) feet.
To him good govtrnKeut in Aorth
Carolina ie nothing; to him the bo
lition of trusts, free silver and the
other things of which he grates so
glibly are nothing. Ho u;ed ti.eni
as a part and parcel of his
scheme. Proclaiming tbat he is for
white supremacy, he would see every
every county in the Ete.e dournaled
by negroes rather than surrender one
ot his own ee.iijti schemes. As a
brazen hypocrite, as an uttertr cf
falsehoods the slanders against men
the latcbetB of whose shoes he ia un
worthy to loose, he has had no equal
in all the history of North Carolina,
and if future history hi correctly
written futu-e generations will be
taught that of al! the sons of North
Carolina who ht-vc al ..ined promi
nence !3utlT alone reuohed the very
acme of infamy.
These are the facta about this man
who, to the disgrace of North Caw
lica, holds a seat iu tho United
Str.tes Senate, and no intelligent
man iu the State can successfully
deny them.
flo'H and l.oiTtafor turetiia.
1. Do visit the schools and get
acquainted with teachers and with
your children. Sam Jcnes would
say that if you had some one caring
for a lot of pigs co, we'll say epars
rows yoi'd irsnt to go occasionally
to see how they are getting along.
Are these not of more value thun
many sparrows ?
2. Don't expect perfection in
children. Mot of them are "a chip
off of the old block." We should
not forget how it once was with
ourselves.
3. Den't let children remain out
of school to go to the show. School
will cloje in plenty of time to see
the show.
4 Don't ask (please don't) to
have obildren excused from school
in order to help about church en
tertainments. It disoounts school
work and ia injustioe to both teacher
and child. Timers are others, not
in school, who would be the batter
for doing the church work.
5. Don't complain because chil
dien atk for an tscusa to be written
after they haye been tardy or abs
sent. Wec-ia't hav jood schools
and net giva attention to euch
things.
0. Do look afi?r the cor.-j aiiicai
of jour child. Oi:e lad t :oc!ate
will often destroy all the good in
fluence of school, home and churoh.
7. Don't let children spend their
eTeninf;8 on the stretto rod i;t pir
tlcs and then blame tie acb'ois be
cause they do not mak prcfire.-a in
their studies. It's hard to C I a
basket with app'es wb-'n it's al

8. Do see tbat children huve s)..ie
blacked end Lair brns-:ed be:e
going to siihoo1. TUejo ure ba'-i's
tbat will ever be helpful .
9. Don't ep rt '. sellers to make
your children c! y !.en you can't
control them yourself, ibe teacher
has about thirty to look after to
your oue.
10. Dou't say that b:eaua- ton
have but little or no educilioj that
it is not necessary for your child to
go to school. Times are not as
they naed to be. One must know
more now in order to get on in tbe
world.

THE CONFEDERATE SOLBIEP

The foliuivifig extract from th(
famons address delivered by the la'.i
Uen.y W Grady before tbe New
England Soc'e'y of New York, on
the cccasioa of i'a annual dinner ii
13S6, derives ppecial interest and
appropriateness from the ascocia1
tions of Memorial Di-y:
"Dr. Talisiase has drawn for yon
with a master hand the picture ol
your returning armies, Kj has told
you In-, ia pomp and circumatanoe
of war, they came back to you,
marching with proud aud victorious
tread, reading teir glory ia a na
tion's eyes.
Will you bear with me while I tell
you of another army that sought its
home at tbe clo3e cf the war an
army that marched homo in defeat
and not in yietory, in pathos and
not in splendor bat in glory that
qualed yours, and to hearts that
were as loving as ever welcomed he
roes home ?
' hi t me picture to jou the foot"
sore Conftderale Boluicr, a, buttons
ing up in his faded gray jacket the
parole wbic'j was to btar testimony
io his children of hia Cdelity and
fuilh, he turned bis f;ice soathwaid
from Appomattox in 18G5. I think
of him, as ragged, half atarved,
heavy-htarled, enfeebled by want
and Kounda, baviDg fought to ex
hauslieo, he surretdfrs hia gun,
wrings the Lands of his comrades in
diiecoj, .:m', lifting bis tear-stained
and pallid face for the laet time to
the graves that dot old Virginia's
bills, pulls bis gray cap over his
brow and begins the alow ond pain
ful journey.
'Whatdoci he find? let me ask
yon who went to jour homes eager
to find, in a welcome yon bad justly
earned, foil payment foryonr year'a
faenflce what docs he find when,
having followed the battle-stained
crosa ajainet overwhelming odda,
dreading death not half so much as
surrender, he reaches the home he
left so prosperous and beautiful? He
finds hia house In ruins, hia farm
devastated, his slaves free, hia stock
killed, his barns empty, his trade
destroyed, his money worthless, his
scciai sysieni leuaul in ita mag
niflcence swept away, hia people
without law or legal statue, hia
comrades slain, and thd burdens of
others heavy on hia shoulders
Without money, credit, employment,
material or training, and, besides all
this, confronted with the gravest
problem that ever confronted hu
man intelligence the establishing
of a status for the vast body of his
liberated sh.vea.
"What does he do, this hero in
gray, with the heai t of gold ? Does
he sit down in snlicunees and de
spair? Not for a day. Surely
God, who had atrippod him of his
prosperity, inspired him in his ad
versity. As ruin was never before
so overwhelming, neyer was Testers'.
tion swifter. Tho soldier stepped
from the trenches into the furrow;
horses that had charged Federal
guns marched before the plow, and
Gelds t'-iiit ran red with human
blcoi in April were green with the
barreet in June; women reared iD
luxury cut up their dresses and
ms'.e drePSM for their husbinds;
with a pa'ience arid a heroism that
Ct women always ae a carrueut, they
gave their hands to work. There
was little bitterness in all this,
t'heerfulncas and frankness pre
vailed. 'B 11 Arp' s'ruak the key -no's

many of tbem as they did of me,nd

A Deserter Canifht.
Fletcher B Handle, a de.
serter from the First North
Carolina Regiment, waa ar-
rested here Friday night, and
haa been labeled, "Keep un
til called for." Captain Ed
ward Hill wrote Chief Orr
from camp at Savannah that
Handle had deserted; that he
was from Salisbury, that he
wu3 a printer by trade, and
that he expected to go to
Charlotte. As soon as he
landed here he was arrested
and locked np, says the Char
lotte Observer.
The Tereia la on Cat (lalanil."
It is no longer a question, but a
fact that the Teroea did float out on
the beach of Cat Island, where she
ia ready for another raising. She
may be too much damaged by
healing upon tbo ooral reefs to be
worth raising, but it ia worth much
to obtain her as a trophy.
