The citizens of Goldsboro and vi cinity who intend going this summer to some resort for health or pleasure will not find a better and more de lightful place than Carolina Beach. This "Coney Island of North Caro lina" is becoming more popular every day, judging from the large number of visitors already there at "The Oceanic." This hotel is conducted by the ever courteous and obliging Phil Wright, which can easily be accounted for why the- tables are constantly loaded with the substan tials and luxuries of the season. Carolina Beach is reached by a very convenient boat schedule from Wilmington. The palatial steamer "Wilmington," under command of that ever obliging and whole-souled gentleman, Capt. J. W. Harper, glides smoothly but swiftly along the waters of the grand Cape Fear and after a delightful sail of a little over an hour a distance of about 15 miles you are met at the wharf by a train of airy summer cars which after a breezy ride of about ten min utes will deposit you almost in front of the great Atlantic Ocean. Ihe surf at Carolina Beach is the best wre ever saw and every evening it is literally lined with bathers. We spent Friday night at "The Oceanic and to the credit of the hotel be it said that we were not pestered by a single mosquito or 11 v. In fact the guests told us that these insects are rarely ever seen there. The hotel has been so changed and improved that old patrons will hardly recog nize it. Mr. J. D. Smith, a Wil mington boy, is the chief clerk, whom everybody who has been to Carolina Beach heretofore knows as most clever and accommodating gentleman. Mr. J. A. Burns, of Fayetteville, who easily tips the scales past 200 pounds is the proprie tor of this famous hotel. Augusta Female Seminary. One of the best known institutions of learning for girls and young la dies, is the Augusta Female Semi nary of Staunton, Va. This old and favorably known school, during the thirty years that it has been under the management of Miss M. J. Bald win, whose fame as an educator ex tends not only.over the entire South, but also over many of the western and northern States, has reached a degree of prosperity seldom attained by any college, and during the past session, has drawn pupils from twenty-four States. The Seminary lias long been noted as a refined Chris tian home for girls, for the health fulness of its location, its beautiful and extensive grounds, and above all, for its extensive course of study, and the thoroughness of its teaching. The buildings are convenient and comfortable, and during the past session an elegant gymnasium, well equipped, and a swimming pool have been added. The terms are very low for the advantages offered. For years the institution has been failed to its utmost capacity, and parents and guardians are urged to write at once for a catalogue, which gives the full est details. Resolutions of Respect. Adopted by the Young People's Temperance Association of Stony Creek, Wayne county. Y hereas, It has pleased Almigh ty God in the execution of His holy and righteous will, to remove by death, our beloved brother, Stephen Howell, who was one of the oldest members of this society. In his daily ne tne manuestations or a thorough ly temperate man were vividly exem plified ; while in his death was lost a devoted christian and temperance worker. He left behind him an ex ample which is commendable and truly worthy of imitation for both the old and the young. Resolved, 1. That in the broth er's demise this Temperance Society has lost one of its shining lights and the surrounding community one of its best and most benevolent citi zens. His love and charity toward his neighbor are standing illustra tions of his piety. Knowing that wine was a mocker and that strong drink was raging" his advice was al ways to shun the bitter cup in which was secreted the demon of drunken ness. 2. That while we bow in humble submission to the will of Him, who performs his wondrous works for his own glorification, we thank God for his life and example among men, knowing that he has reaped the re ward, which awaits only the true and faithful. 3. That this society tenders its love and sympathy to his bereaved iamiiy, praying the blessings of high heaven upon them, that they may see by an eye of faith through the uark misty clouds of bereavment i loving and sympathizing Saviour, who will never leave nor forsake them ; but will be a husband to the widow and a father to the fatherless. 4. That these resolutions be made a part of this Temperance Society xeuoru, ana a copy be sent to the be reaved family and also to The Head light for publication. J. P. Pate, Nora F. Smith, " Committee. A drug clerk recently wrote to th ramous newspaper correspondent, Eleanor Kirk, that he did not think it wrong to substitute witchhazel for Pond s Extract.
