particularly regrets to lose this distinguished

but we send after him our best wishes' for
his happiness and an addition to his already
great success that will be a' marvel even to,
himself.
Dr. -Pritchard in bidding the Mespexger
representative good bye, said in his happy
manner: i" ,
"Yf- T am snrrv to leave Wilmington. It
is a delightful place of residence, and the
pedfele have been very kind to me and mine;
Indeed. I can trnlv sav that- while I have
.had Dieasant pastorates in Baltimore, Pe-
.tershurt?. Raleieh and Louisville, I have
never lived araoni! a people to whom 1 1 be
came so much attached, and I feel espe
cially grateful for the sympathy and kind

rnmTTinninn - I am not eoine far. however.
only to Charlotte, and we will come back to
see you eften, as we shall still retain our
home at the sound, which we prize very
highly." - ..
- Who will succeed Dr. Pntchare here "as
pastor of the First Baptist Church? This is
a question that deeply concerns that influ
ential and prominent church and greatly
interes, our entire community. In speaking
of this matter Dr. Pritchard said: I
"I can't tell vou whtf will succeed me
here. There are a dozen names : before the
committee to nominate a pastor at least a
half a dozen of whom are strong men and
would meet the demands of the place. There
is no ene in night yet; and no one can give
the slightest-guess a3 to who will be the man
chosen. Judge Mitchell of this State used
to say "that there were no two things in
this world so uncertain as ho w a jury would
find and who a woman would marry;'! and
Dt. Jeter, of Richmond, used to say that vif
there wa3 anything the Lord did not know,
it was who a Baptist church would call to be
pastor." The committee will prfibably re
port at an early day, and some good, man
will take my place. This is regarded,. as a
desirable pastorate; It i& an excellent church
and better now than it ever was. Notwith
standing serious disturbances in the church,
the record for the past year is better than
that of any year, save one of the nine, that
I have been here. Eighty-three members
have- been received, sixty-three of whom
were by baptism. The congregations were
fine all through the summer, and the
prayer meeting were -never so large, spirnea
and profitable as during the last six months.
Indeed, all the interests' of the church have
prcspered, and the pastor who takes charge
may promise himself a pleasant field. !
Dr. Pritchard spent Christmas here, and it
seems thit Santa Glaus paid him a visit, for
he said to the reporter: t i
"Oh, yes, I have received some nice Christ
mas presents. Counting sin the books the
good women of the church. gave me I have
7iad over a hundred dollars-worth of pres
ents, for all of which I am very grateful.'
With reference to .his new charge, Dr
Pritchard said: ; ; t
-'No. the Baptists are not strong in Char
lotte, but the church is a good one, having
many taithlul members, andtne field is a
mpst important and inviting one, as the
'tueeu City, as they love to call it. I Know
I shall find a pleasant field of labor there. I
was born there, yon know, and most of the
prominent citizens of the place are my warm
personal menus."
t. Dean Detached.
capt. iii h. JJean, w ho has i been com
mander of the Revenue Cutter Colfax, on
duty in this port, has beeft detached from
service on account of bad. health, and ; left
yesterday at 9:30 o'clock for his home in
Hampden Corner, Maine. Capt. Dean i has
been in command of the Colfax for about
three years and has made hosts 1 of friends
who hope his. retirement from active duty
will restore him to his usual health.- He
was ever a gjilknt officer anil courteous gen
tieman,and no stranger ( has rarelv ever
come into enr midst tmd won more esteem
and popularity than he. . ;
In. Captain Dean's absence, our clever
friend, First LieutenantO. S.Willey, will be

The foundations for the increase in the

To the Messenger: ! i , f
11 seems mat mere exists an impression
that the city in contracting with certain
lawyers for the recovery of taxes jagainst the
1 .tn.iiipvn biuuu xamuu vir
tually given to tnem a bonus amounting jto
something between ten thousand and ten
million of dollars. . b nder ordinary circum
stances twenty-fivepercent. of the recovery
witnout any retainer tor. legal services jn
advance, and uncertain ntigationl requiring
professional capacity would be, regarded as
tow compensation, x am told that some
good people thmfc it's excessive m this case
Their reason is that they have taken up the
erroneous notion that the lawyers have
nothing'to do but to make out a bill for two
hundred and fifty thousand dollars and walk
up to tne railroad omce and shake it at the
President and shake the money ofut of him
before breakf ast. On the contrary, so far as
I know, the money must be recovered by
uam una in me courts-ana legislature.
To Col. Thos. W. Strange is dne tlie
of discovering the rights of the city' against
lu-iauurporauon ana 01 evomng tne princi
ples upon wnicn its case rests. The recent
ueuiaioii oi me r eaerai oupreme ! court - has
nttie or no application to 1 this ease. Col
Strange consulted me about it last summer.
1 agreed witn him that the claim' was a good
one. There were legal reasons then which
rendered . immediate action . impracticable
I did ndt devote much time to it then h.
cause there was no way to push it and he-
cause I saw that Strange' was master of the
iacts ana tne law 01 the case. My services
have consisted mainly in trying to look
wise aim 111 agreeing witn tne -man who
anew more aoout it than 1 did. Ul to these
presents, Strange has done thej work and
furnished the brains. If in the Bweet bye
and bye his associates do not do anore than
1 nave, btrange ought to have thewhole fee,
iuoouy iui now ever anegea that the city
attorney should undertake and conduct
heavy litigation for the little salarv
is paid,to him for attending the meetings of
the Bdard of Aldermen and giving general
advice. I think it always has been the cus
torn to pay, the city attorney regular fees for
all suits and work in the courts, s 1
If the matter had been brought; before the
City Boards last Summer, or at any time be
fore tne recent "Supreme Court srulirg it

Of honor and beauty and truth,
Which will still with a-gloir enfold you
When faded the spell of your youth. -
And now, with the new book, endeavor f
To write its white pages with care; -
Each day is a leaflet, remember
To be written with watching and prayer.
And if on a page you discover . 1.

Kneel quickly and ask the dear Saviour ;
In mercy to cover it alL
So when the strange book shall be finished,
And claspedlay the angel of light. i
You may feel, though the work be im-
- i perfect. .
You have tried to please God in the
