A Sensible Preacher. Dr. Preston said last Sunday night,, in the course of his sermon, that he was surprised that as pro gressive a city as Charlotte had no system of organized charity.

The church should take care of God's poor, but not a set of idle, trifling men. J.ir 4i ft ,r J. Vv. Oanxok, W. II . Lilly, 'L' .'',ANE, i ti-di - . liojiie aiid iSov - Core for Headache.
