The Financial Statement.
We observe that our neighbor, the
Recorder, is publishing the annual
financial statement of the county
"by order of the Hoard of Countv
Commissioners." We have no cen
sure for the Recorder in the matter,
but we ask if it would not have been
the proper thing for the Commis
sioners to have let this work out to
the lowest bidder? It strikes us that
this isjust what a set of fair minded
business men should have done,
both through courtesy to the two
papers, both Democratic, and The
Plant having as much claim upon
official patronage as the Re order, and
in the interest of the tax-payers,
whom the Commissioners are sup
posed to represent.

We take pleasure in extending a j

A Itrilliant Aflhh- at St. Philip's
-Church. 1
On yesterday afternoon at o o'clock
our popular young townsman, Mr.
James S. 3Ianning, was united in
marriage to 3Iiss Julia T. Cain, all
of this city. The ceremony was per
formed at St. Philip's Church, and
was pronounced by all to have been
the most beautiful of the kind that
Durham has ever witnessed. The
church had been most evimisit..!
dressed and the chancel, where the
Hev Mr. T. 31. N. George awaited the
bridal party, was a scene nt' tm;,...i
loveliness.
In full accord with the beautiful
strains of Tannahausers weddim

the altar in the following order 31r

arm of her father.
The impressive words of the Epis
