The reports have it that the .re cent heavyand general rains have done much damage to the cotton crops in the cotton state. About this time, every year there is always wild estimates as to the crop. It is done for a purpose. More it is, the lower the price. And the boast3 that go up here and there, has a damaging effect on the price. It is less sin to underate than to overate the crop of cotton.5 The crop is now. estimaed at 7,500,000 last year iT was 9,500, 000, A shortage of 2,000,000 ought to make a big difference in the price as compared to last year. Did you ever hear so much talk of gold and silver ? Did you ever see so litle of either ? Captain J L McCormack, of Knoxville, Io., has a "madstone" as large as a man's fist. It was found in the bladder of a hog. The Salisbury Herald is now talsirg the press dispatches. The Standard congratulates its neigh bor on the north upon this evidence of enterprise and progressiveness. .A child born in the northern su rerabs of Omaha last week has finger nua nu men long ana a iniCK growth of hair all ever his body.

It wouldn't.do for a financial question to be sprung there Secretary Carlisle declines to speak for Mr. Cleveland on the third term question, and is evidently of the opinion that Mr. Cleyeland is suCfi- ciently ablebodied ana sufficiently gifted with speech to do his owu talking i on ' that subject when he feels like it. . At Crawfordsville, Ind., in the summer of 1890, there was a shower of fish and angle worms. The fish were without eyes and all about two inches long. It would have been a blessing had it been a shower of fere tilizer. At San Francisco a young woman has been appointed deputy sher iff. Her especial duty is to escort women who have been adjudged insane to their asylam. By her combined firmness and kindness she is very successful in dealing with. them. This is not the "New Woman"; be sides not being built that way, she has firmness and kindness. Some people are wondering how Corbett could marry again when the recent divorce decree obtained by his first wife restrain :d him. The divorce was obtained in New York. Corbett and his new wife married in New Jersey, claiming to be residents of that State. The marriage holds good in any State except New York, If the Corbetts should ever settle down in that State Mrs, Coibett wolud not be a wife, and the chil dren of the the couple would not be legitimate. But they are husband and wife everywhere else. In pass ing, it might be well to say these people have had their marriage more generally noted than had they been decent people. The brute is on top. A Mr. Ufford, a much travelled man and a resident of Philadelphia, Pa., said from what he had heard and read, he expected to find North Carolinians promoters and defenders of drinking Blums without any tem perance proclivities He freely ads mits that this country and people form a paradise to his. Yet Over Sea and Land is published there. It is the unprotested published lies against the South that put us in a false light, yet there are some good people among us who think we ought to take all these slanders without protest just for the sake of harmonv and new comers. -Thank' the Trrt such are few. Mr. Ufford would nnd a warm welcome for him any time he comes. It is honest, truths ful, decent men we want to make their homes among us, either for a timocr permanently.

Hearing Ayer's Hair Vigor highly spoken of, I commenced using this prepaia- tion, and was so well satisfied with the result that I have never tried any other kind of dressing. It stoo ped the htiir from tailing out, stimur lated a new growth of hair, and kept the scalp free from dandruff. Only an occasional application is now needed to keep my hair of good natural color.
