For the first time in the history
of Wayne and Greene a Normal
School for the instruction of col
ored teachers, opened its session
of four weeks on the 13th of June,
with eighteen teachers present,
The worthy County Superinten
dent of public schools, Mr. C. B.
Aycock, was present, and deliv
ered an able, instructive and elo
quent address to the teachers,
which was received with marked
attention; and be assured ye ene
mies to popular education, that
with such a chief at the bead of
school affairs in this conuty, we
cannot fail in the effort of improv
ing the youth of said county. The
yonng men and women should in
terest themselves in the cause of
education.
The teachers have heard during
tbe session, instructive addresses
from such distinguished gentle
men as Prof. E. E. Green, of Wil
mington; Hon. John C. Dancy, of
Tarboro; Chas. N. Hunter, Esq.,of
Raleigh Banner, and Prof,
-oore, of Wilson.
The teachers seem now to ap

The Stab arges every person
that instructs the youth, not only

vantage of every privilege offered
by the government tendiDg to
raise the. standard of education
among them. Be ye assured, that
any person seeking to instruct the
youth in the future mast be up
with the times or the wheel of
progress will grind the would-be
instructor into powders, and none
bat those persons traly interested
in the proper training of the youth
can seek preferment from the more
intelligent in the near future.
Too much cannot be said in
praise of our honored County
Superintendent; he has shown
himself the friend of education ,
and in the establishment of the
Goldsboro Normal School he has
enshrined himself in the hearts of
the friends of education in th!a
county.
The address has had the
wholesome effect of causing the
school to Increase at the present
time of going to press to thirty
five teachers, eager for improve
ment. A BRIDE NOT TWELVE

In the northeastern portion of
this county, on Monday last, there
was a romantic matrimonial sen
sation which is unparalleled in the
history of the county, and, so far
as we know iu the State. We
briefly give the facts as they have
been detailed to us from reliable
sources. They are about as fol
lows: It seems that one Louis B
Fosky, a young man about 22
years of age, had been playine the
devoted to Mfss Martha, daughter
of Mr. wade Evans for some
time, whenever an opportunity
presented itself, althongh she was
a child under 12 years of age. In
deed his attentions to the girl had
become so marked as to arouse the
suspicions of the parents, and . to
-cause them to be on the alert. But
Monday last her father being
aged in shearing sueep at his
brother's, a short distance from
his home Miss Martha took ad
vantage of his temporary absence,
and met her would-be lieee lord
at Mr. Tom Bennett's, a neigh borjS
house, about two miles from her
home. The necessary license had
previously been obtained, and the
justice of the peace, J. C. Thomp
son, was sent for. Upon seeing
the extreme. youthful and child
like" appearance of the would-be
bride, it is said that Mr. Thomp
son declined to perform the cere
mony until assured by Mr. Ben-
nat, at whose house they were.
that the father had consented to
the marriage.
Judge Thompson then proceed
ed to tie the knot, and about ten
minutes after the couple had been
pronounced man and wife, the
vexed father, who had been noti
fied of his daughter's absence from
home, appeared upon the scene
The groom was standing in the
doorway, -and, as the father, wild
with anxiety, attempted to enter
tbe house, the groom drew a pis
tol, and, it is said, snapped it at
Mr. Evans, whereupon Evans ran
upon Fosky, seize1' tbe pistol aud
wrenched the same from his hand.
proceeded to pommel him with it
over the head . Fosky succeeded
in getting away from Evans, how
ever, and ran into the bouse. The
girl bride in the meantime had
gone out the back door and was
walking in the direction of tbe Da
rental home she had abandoned
but a short time before. The
groom, seeing her movements, at
tempted to ionow, out Mr. ifivans,
leveling the pistol upon him which
he had but a few moments before
wrenched from his hand, com
manded him to stop, which he
did. Mr. Evans then overtook
his daughter and accompanied her
home, where she still remains.

CREMATION; "
The Pennsylvania University, in
TPest Philadelphia has established
a crematory, and the bodies dis
sected by the students am reduced
to ashes very quickly, and at little
expense. The Philadelphia Board
of Health has under consideration
a proposition tocremate the fMies
of small-pox patients who i .j at
the hospital, thus averting the
danger of infection to the living
while burying the dead.
It seems, says the Philadelphia
Times, that the hanging of Gui-
teau is not to remove the ill-starred
Guiteau family from public notice.
A late report from Milwukie
indicates that Mrs. Scoville Gui-
teau's sister, has applied for a dii
vorce at Waukesha from her husb
and, Gorge Scoville, on account of
failure to support her properly. He
will resist the application for the
divorce, but desires a sepration. He
claims that she left an unpaid board
bill at the" Aator House when she
left there on the day she was to
deliver her lecture Two or three
very bitter quarrels are described
as having taken place between the
couple, in one of which Mr. Scoville
threatened to jump overboard from
the boat on which they were cross.
