When daylight fades A silence broodeth over all the land. The waves creep slowly up the glistening sand, , ., The bolstering wind grows strangely still. When daylight fades. When daylight fades. Long shadows gather on the pine-crowned hill. The mossy wheel turns slowly at the mill. The downy chicken seek their mothers' wing, The crickets In the long, lush grasses sing When daylight fades. When dayltjiht fades. The whip-poor-will pipes forth his lonely can, The dewdroDS clisten on the old stone And sunset skies turn dim and faintly While fire-flies flash their lamps across the wav. When daylight fades. When daylight fades, The flowers, drooping, nestle in their beds, And babies, nodding curly, drowsy heads, Are pillowed on their loving mothers bvenst All living tilings are touched to gentle rest, When daylight fades. When daylight fades Into death's dreamless, .lethe-dipped, star less night. With fields Elysian, touched with unkown What sun-kissed, arching, azure skies; What flower-gemmed world will greet our waking eyes? When daylight fades. rrra v WHY SHOULD IT BE THUS? A religious newspaper the Chris tian Herald states that there are in one State of the American Union "one hundred and forty thousand un married ladies!" The same paper regards this as one of the curses of the day. There is cause and remedy for this inversion of the divine rule. Men are too proud to live in humble circum stances. They want a magnificient cage before they appropriate a canary. They forget that "a genuine bird will sing just as well in a plain as in a guilded enclosure." Many of our men, says the same writer, expend in cigars, and wines, and drives, and theatres, and operas as much money as would support a good wife, and when they get ready for domesticity take their dissipations along with them into the holy partnership. The second reason lor the one hun dred and forty thousand unmarried girls in one State is the unparalelled extravagance of woman's wardrope A young man sees one ot these prin cesses of fashion walk through a ferry boat or glide down the street, and says to himself: "If I had to navigate bark with such riggings as that, would eet on the shoals in no time! What would become of my salary I had to support such an outlay that?" if as This is an alarming and abnormal condition of things. How long will men and women pervert the ways of the Lord? How much better for the country and for the race for men to seek an affinity and begin life in Heaven s way. 1 rue happiness is found only in the married relation I here are but lew doomed to "ever lasting bachelorhood or solitary femi ninity." There is a helpmeet for every man une hundred and lorty tnousand un married ladies in one State! Add this number to the unmarried record in all the other States and you will have a tremendous aggregate of single loneliness. Young men, middle-aged men and men of riper years, bestir yourselves and meet this condition There are thousands of beautiful arid lovely Rebeccas to be found at the well. WILL GIVE HIM LOYAL SUP PORT. The New York World has inter viewed the Democratic State Com mittee of New York in reference to the Chicago convention, and the members declare that if Mr. Cleveland is nom inated they will give him a loyal sup port. Uf course, nobody supposes otherwise, except the few who desire to see the ex-President shelved. Messrs, Croker, Cochran, Mayor Grant and McLaughlin are very emphatic in the declaration that they will do their very best to elect Mr. Cleveland if he is nominated. j Of all the committee interviewed only two were positive in the asser tion that Mr. Cleveland cannot carry New York. Boss Piatt, on the Re publican side, together with his as sociates, say that Harrison will not carry "the Empire State" by 50,000. Now the question arises, if Cleveland cannot carry it if nominated, and Harrison will lose it by 50,000, who is to carry it, anyhow? Perhaps some one will say the Farmers Alliance or the Prohibition candidate. The latter proposition is all nonsense, yet , not more so than some of the things that are being urged why Mr. Cleveland should not be nominated. Norfolk Virginian. The dominion of any sinful habit will fearfully estrange us from His presence. A simple consenting act of inward disobedience in thought or will is enough to let fall a cloud be tween Him and us, and to leave our hearts cheerless and dark. Cardinal Manning. ""How well we remember grandmother's attic, so fragrant with medicinal roots and herbs! Poor old soul, bow precious they seemed to her! And yet, one bottle of Ayer's sarsaparilla would do more good than her whole collection of "yarbs" VALEDICTORY. BY MISS NANNIE K. CHAPMAN. At the request of many of her friends we publish the valedictory of Miss Nannie K. Chapman, of Mary land, read at the closing exercises of the Henderson Female College, June 9th : When, in the course of human events, if I may dare paraphrase that venerable Palladium ot our liberty, the Declaration of Independence, it becomes necessary for us to dissolve the ties that bound us with others and to assume the separate and equal station to which Nature and Nature s God- entitle us, a decent respect for the opinions of mankind, requires that we should declare tne causes which impel us to the separation, and, a matter of sentiment suggests that we should make a formal farewell. This mournful but Jefferson ian duty devolves upon me. First, as to the causes, which impel me to this separation. Frankly I declare, the one sole suf ficient and moving cause is, that hav ing come to the parting of ways in life, we shall walk together no more. Unlike the "Original Thirteen" whose protest against oppression I began by paraphrasing, I have no grievances to redress, no provocations to plead in extenuation of my action in departing from you, my friends and fellow-collegians. I go because I must, because other ties and duties claim me, but before I say farewell, let me indulge in a brief retrospect, which tho' sad with the penumbra of parting is never theless cheered with the auroral gleams of happy home-going. When nine months agone, I turned my face Southward, singing "Mary land my Maryland" in doleful accents, I little dreamed how dear the Old North State was to become to me. I little knew then that I should number among my "fate's devoted few" so many daughters and shall I not say sons? of the Old North State. Pleasant in many ways has been my stay in N. C, and tho' my first and latest memories are not a little blurred by refractory French and Latin voca bles, and tho' my most lasting im pressions cling tenaciously around the xstnontal Iheorem, yet 1 can lay my hand on my heart and say, it is well for me to have been here. I have made acqusitions that will be mine forever. I have gained experience that will tide me in safety over many bridgeless possibilities of the future, and last, but by no means least. I have learned what a great and growing Commonwealth the Old North State is, and how fitly she ranks foremost among her prosperous and progressive sister States of the South. The days of the year of my pilgrim age have not been all sunshine, nor yet all shadow: a wholesome, blending of both, tvmcal of what shall be in after years, has been my lot. My worst wrangles and struggles have been with that doughty warrior of antiquity, of whom our fair young Latin Orator has told us so much to night. I have wrestled with him and thro' him with the Ethical Dative and with other sad consequences of the Dispersion ot tfabel until 1 am com pelled to admit that Caesar, ghost as he is, is too much for me. But tho' all this, like any other chas tening, seemed grievous enough at the time, yet I knew I should reap the peaceable fruits later on, when some day, "In my noisy mansion skilled to rule With patient peace 1 should teach my SCHOOL It 1 were asked what lesson ot my College life has been most effectually impressed upon me, I should unhesi tatingly say, "I have been taught o do my best," my best in technical work, my best in mental out-put, my best in the exercise of high and en nobling virtues, and I should go from this ' Institution the Apostle of its cardinal teachings which represent the broadest and most thorough in culture, the highest and most liberal m opin ions, and the best we can do along all the lines of life. And now, my friends, me thinks I hear the sweet cadences of "Maryland my Maryland" calling me home. Of you my fellow students, I ask one little boon in parting; think of me as kindly as I shall ever think of you; remember me as one who loved wisely and well in loving you, and who will hold you in happy thought "while memory holds a place in this distracted globe." For the inmates of the owl-cote I have a special word. Let us hope, gentle owlets, that our characteristics and proclivities more than our utterances have made the owl our College emblem and let us live up to the character of that solemn, sapient bird of night. As each succeeding Leap year comes, will not the "Owlet Quintette club" sing 'whof who?" till the answer come more satisfactorily than from the Dream-book? Ah well, who? who? knows what we shall be, and who we shall be when the next lucky Leap year comes? To you, the honored heads and Fac ulty of Henderson College, I would tender my most grateful thanks and lay at your feet my willing tribute of deep appreciation and gratitude. In the future, should success crown my effort, I shall know whence I drew my inspiration, I shall know who gave me the quickening impulse that will live while I have life. May your suc cess and influence know no bounds save the limits of your desires. As said Tiny Tim, so say I tonight, "God bless us all: And now, tho' "Farewell is a word that hath been and must be A sound that makes us linger. Yet farewell!" PRACTICAL RELIGION. When practical religion gets its full swing in the world,' says an exchange, it will go down the streets, and it will come to that shoe store and rip off the ficticious soles of many a fine- looking pair of shoes, or show that it is pasteboard, sandwiched between the sound leather. And this practical religion will go right into a grocery store, and it will pull out the plug of all the adulterated syrups and it will dump into the ash barrels in front of the store the cassia bark that is sold for cinnamon, and the brick dust that is sold for cayenne pepper, and- it will shake out the Prussian blues from the tea leaves, and it will sift from the flour plaster of Paris, and bonedust, and soapstone, and it will by chemical annalysis separate the one quart of water from the few honest drops of cow's milk, and will throw out the live animacules from the brown sugar. AN INCORRIGIBLE PARROT. An old maiden lady, who strongly objected to "followers," had as a com panion a gray parrot with a wonder ful faculty for picking up sentences. One day the old lady had caused to severely reprimand one of her maids for a breach of the "follower' ordi nance. This so itritated the girl that as a wmdup to the recital of her wrongs, in the hearing of her fellow servants and Polly, who happened to be with them, she exclaimed passion -nately, "I wish the old lady was dead." The parrot lost no time in showing off its newly acquired knowledge when next taken into the drawing room, to the alarm of its elderly mistress, who superstitiously thought it was a warn ng from another world. She at once consulted the vicar, who kindly volunteered to allow his own parrot, which could almost preach a short sermon, sing psalms, &c, to be kept a short time with the impious one in order to correct its language. To this end they were kept together in a small room for a few days, when the lady paid them a visit in company with her spiritual adviser. To their intense horror, immediately the door was opened, the lady s parrot saluted them with the ominous phrase, "I wish the old lady was dead!" the vicar's bird responding, with all the solemnity of an old parish clerk. "The Lord hear our prayer." Ex. Luther used to teach his children to read tne DiDie in the following way: First to read through one book care fully, then to study chapter by chap ter, and then verse by verse, and lastly word by word; for, he said: "It is like a person shaking a fruit tree: first shaking the tree and gathering up the fruit which falls to the ground, and then shaking each branch, and after ward each twig of the branch, and last of all looking carefully under each leaf to see that no fruit remains. In this way, and in no other, shall we also find the hidden treasures that are in the bible." The Governor of New York has signed the bill to enable married women to contract with their husbands in the same manner and with the same effect as if unmarried. In 1884 the wife was given authority to contract, except with her husband, as if un married; in 1887 husband and wife were enabled to deed directly- to one another; in 1890 a confusion respect ing the wife's right to sue for inju ries to her person or character was settled, and the husband was relieved from his still-existing liability as at common law for her torts. New York is to be congratulated on the wisdom of her legislation. Richmond Trade Journal. The true use to be made of all the imperfections of which you are con scious is neither to justify nor to con demn them, but to present them be fore God, conforming your will to His, and remaining in peace; for peace is the divine order, in whatever state we may by. Fenelon. It was Mr Emerson who said "the first wealth is health," and it was wiser than the modern philosopher who said that "the blood is the life." The system, like the clock, runs down. It needs winding up. The blood gets poor and scores 01 diseases result. It needs a tonic to enrich it. A certain wise doctor, after years of patient study, discovered a medicine which purified the blood, gave tone to the system , and made men tired, nerveoas, brain watstlng men feel like new. He called it his "Golden Medical Discovery." It has been sold for years, sold by the million of bottles, and people found such satisfac tion in it that Dr. Pierce, who discovered it, now feels warranted in selling it under a positive guarantee of its doing good in all cases. A man jumped from the new Mem phis bridge with the same sad result so often noted in cases of bridge-jumping. He was not hurt. Asa blood-purifier, the most eminent physicians prescribe Ayer's Sarsaparilla. it is the most powerful combination of vegetable alteratives ever offered to the public.

The Henderson Contingent of the Ladies' World's Fair Auxiliary, do Themselves Great Credit Tuesday Night. In all the history of this town, never before has so creditable an entertain ment been presented, on boards of Bur well Hall, by either amateurs or pro fessionals, as that to "which our people were treated on Tuesday night. It had been previously announced in the press that the beauty of the participants, the elegance of the their costumes, and courtly demeanor, would' rival the court of any Eastern Princess. The thousand or more spectators who en joyed to the fullest extent this spec tacular and literary treat will attest that the prediction was more than ful filled. The entre in the grand spectacular opening march was grand beyond com pare, and Miss Emma Averett, as pianist convinced all that, she was absolute nv-stress of the instrument. If comparisons were admissible in such a galaxy of talent and beauty, there are several who deserve more space than we have, and more praise than our knowledge of language will permit. Mrs. H. Perry, as "Queen of Trade," accompanied by her train berrers, little Clos8 Parker and Sudie Whitmore and little Claude Hunter as scepter bearer, opened the exercises in that inimita ble style so popular with all who have heard her. As the only man in the show Capt. C. J. Voorhees acted both a comedy and farce without saying a word. His costume and march would have made the Priest laugh. Ilight, jeweler, was admirably rep resented by Miss Fannie Parker, in a becoming speech. Ulrich, the fancy grocer, was pre sented to the audience by Miss Walker, who impressed them that his was the place to by something good to eat. J. M. Norwood, Raleigh, cigars, song by Miss Lena Edwards, well ren dered. Henderson water works, by Mrs. P. T.Jones. She told how much better water was than other beverages, particu larly for married men. Ilartmaier, the popular butcher, was well represented by a class of three little girls in song, Misses Parker, Cheek and Clements. W. W. Parker, with his love and other various powders, persuaded Miss Annie Manning, to represent his medi cines, perfumes, tooth brushes, &c. A "cheeky" thing but a good advertise ment. Miss Sallie Dunn was the fair repre sentative of the Gold Leaf, and pre sented a charming picture as she stood before the audience and delivered the ode to this publication. She recites well ami her costume was most ex quisite. She was loudly applauded and greatly admired for the creditable man ner in which she acquitted herself. Whitmore, baker, by Miss Jessica Smith, in her usual happy style. She possesses elocutionary powers worthy of note, and was well received. The Citizen's Bank was most charm ingly presented by Mrs. Rose. Miss Hawkins honored tho Bank of Henderson with her presence which was a good advertisement. Davis & Rose were exceedingly for tunate in being represented by the lovely Miss Theda Phillips. Her cos tume was very pretty. Young's dairy was brought before the public by Miss Robards, who rang the bell and warned all to wait for the wagon. Miss Powell was the representative of Mc Adams & Berry, Richmond, and her part was well performed. Miss Josie Clack made a good speech for N. F. & W. W. Alston, which was received with applause. Miss ahone told the vast throng of spectators that Rowland & Powell was the place to get the worth of their money for anything in the line of dry goods or groceries. C. Hunter, the well known insur ance man, was represented by Miss Florence Young. Her part was well done. Miss Annie Smith did honor to the Lassiter-Parham Co. in excellent style A class of three pretty little Misses represented D. Y. Cooper's warehouse, and though they were Sunday-school scholars, insisted that he was the first man and certainly the first warehouse man of North Carolina. Miss Annie Robards took the boards for the R. & D. railroad, and Capt. C. J. Voorhees, apparently principally for the latter, and did justice to all parties concerned. Miss Cheatham told the people of what advantage was the storage ware house in a clear, concise and credita- ' ble manner. Mr. W. S. Parker was fortunate in having Miss Thomas to represent his wholesale grocery business. Literary people will bear evidence A. to the elegant representation of Ste phen's book store by Miss O'Neil. If Mr. Newell our photographer, could give his patrons pictures like his representative, his business would be larger. Miss Bessie Shaw did the honors. Cooper & Mitchell got there in fine style by the splendid action and elocu tion of Miss Louise Bosshamer. Miss Massenburg took in the juniors of the Lassiter-Parham Company, part of the town authorities, and the audi ence generally.' ; . ; ; Massenburg, mine host, added to the attractions of his place by a fair Young representative. The Citizen's Bank was honored by the championship of Mrs. E. G.Davis, who performs well what she under takes. Among the numerous other fair damsels who spoke for S. & C. Wat kins Miss Hartmaier was among the foremost. Miss Willie Dunn spoke for Barnes, Stainback & Co., and spoke well. Jim Poythress had a good represent ative. It's a cold day when Jim gets left, and Miss Allen kindly gave him good representation. Miss Ivey Walker, told about H. Thomason's flour, baton, herrings and codfish in a pleasing speech. Miss C. Thomas, as representative of Cheatham's drug store, should be sat isfied with what she said, as Mr. Cheatham surely is. Miss Whitten presented a pretty ad vertisement' for McAdains & Berry, of Richmond. Watkins was again well advertised by Miss Morton. Miss Clements spoke of the ex cellency of Mrs. Buchan's fruits. Mrs. J. S. Burwell sang the praises of D. Y. Cooper, warehouseman. Mrs. Burwell is one of our most popular vocalists, and her singing was fine and showed dramatic talent. She delighted ! the audience, and retired amid rounds of applause. The following- is Mrs. Burwell's song: D. Y. COOPER'S WAREHOUSE. As 1 was walking out one dav. Because I could not ride, . 1 thought I'd go the longer way, To see the city's pride. To see the city's pride, I did, Which is too big to hide, And 'tis David Cooper's warehouse. That is the city's pride. Chorus. Come in, ye farmers all. Ana an your neignbors call. To sing his praises loud tonight, yes tonight. As grand as warehouse well could be. linn, n t . . ... r mi live uuiiion ids., a year. For farmers all in this aerea To bring their "backy" here. To bring their "backy" nere. I say; 10 Dring ineir "Dae icy to (tell. For at David Cooper s warehouse They always sell it well. " Chorus. Come in, ye farmers all, And all your neighbors call. x o sing nts praises loud tonight yes, tonight. All open wide its nortals stand. Where all the wagons drive Such men to work and strira Such men to work and win. I say. such men to work and win. So come you farmers all this way And drive your wagons in. Chorus. Come in, ye farmers all, And all your neighbors call. To sing bis praises loud tonight, yes tonight. Dave Cooper is a model buyer As all the farmers know, And always sends the prices higher When e're thev are too low. When e're they re too low, I say He sends 'em up in a triee. That's why the farmers come this way To get a better price. Chorus. Come in, ye farmers all. And all your neighbors call. To sing his praises loud tonight yes, tonight. Miss Willie Smoot, in elegant and . appropos costume, gave a cnarming object lesson in the pretty shoes sold by the Lassiter-Parham Co. They could hardly have selected a more artistic model. Davis & Rose dry goods department, by Mrs. Fletcher Harris. She arrayed their fancy fabrics in excellent style and impressed the audience with her good acting. Walter D. Moses & Co., Richmond, 1 riifltMiit sons; by Miss Willie Smoot; a piece, but he r singing was full of sweet ness and effect and was appreciated by the hearers. Farrar, the popular book and station ary dealer, by Miss Dean, who told of his fine goods, nice cool summer drinks, etc. Amerson, general merchandise, was on the list and highly pleased with the representation of Miss E. B. Boyd, who did him credit. O'Xeil, hardware, was well repres ented by Miss Edna O'Neil. She car ried a handsome revolver, and made a pretty speech, emphasizing it at the conclusion, with two shots from the weapon. One of the crowning features of the occasion was the singing of Miss Mamie Wvcbe in behalf of the Bank of Hen derson. She sang it with complacency and ease and captured the audience by her vendition. North Carolina Music Co., by Miss Lena Edwards, superbly rendered. She was in fine voice and her good singing n a rraattv anntanr1? Mr. Teiser could not have done bet- ter im selecting his representative than in the person of the graceful M iss Man- gum, who gave bun a first cl? send off. Howard, the horse and mule mil liner, was anion1,' the best represented firms. Miss Boykiu showed hiiu up in proper style. Teiser was agaiu brought out by Miss Boykin, who did him justice. . Miss Emma Freeborn lent her superb grace and elocution to the Postal Telegraph Company in the following Words. "Hail!! to tho lighten in gs mighty power, and 'bow to its wondrous tpeed; . Caught from , the ' clouds, and made a slave by man's God given in tellect, It performs miracles akin to Omnipotence. Ilaill! to the memory of Morse, who taught us by its use to over come distance and annihilate time: Hail! to him who made it a pathway in ocean's bottom less fathoms, and liuked the old world and the new: Hail to him who broke up the monopoly of its control, and gave to the world a more reliable, a cheaper and a quicker service: Hail! and a benediction upon the Postal Cable Telegraph Company, and it's obliging agent J. E. McCraw." Miss Freeborn's banner was most sugges tive of telegraphy. Mrs. T. A. Davis honored the Wat kins house by encomiums well said. Mrs. Maj. Harris received a pro longed encore for her dissertation upon her husbad's mineral well. Miss Person wanted people to in sure with Claude Hunter. She did not say it must be for her benefit. Miss Mattie Marrow told us how the job printer, D. E. Aycock, furnished furneral notices to marriage couples, and wedding tickets to burials, at which he was well pleased. Miss Mary Hood gave Beacom Bros., a most creditable send off, and did her self justice. Miss Lena Edwards sang of the Senger Sewing Machine. We have no idea what skill she may possess with the needle, butshe's a Singer. The feature of the occasion most enjoyed and most commended was "the old woman," not on programme, as personated by Miss Lena Edwards, who showed more histrionic talent than she or her friends were before aware of. For a batchelor of his age, Henry Macy was peculiarly lucky in having such a representative of himself and the S. A. L. as Miss Pat Lou Jones proved to be. Miss Annie Robards handsornely represented the Richmond & Danville Railroad, and incidentally, its bachelor agent, Capt. C. J. Voorhees. The managers, Mesdames W. S. Parker. H. Perry, W. H. Walker and M. C. Cooper desire to return thanks for valuable assistance to Miss Willie Smoot, Mrs. T. A. Davis, Mrs. E. G Davis; also to Miss J. Buford and Mrs. B. Smith of the Henderson College faculty, and Miss Emma Averette and Mrs. W. H. S. Burgwyn aud Mrs. M Parham, for original poems. The lady managers desire to return their sincere thanks to the public geuerally both for their generous patronage and the compliments paid to the manner in which the Carnival was conducted. Mrs. Virginia S. Patterson, of Ka koma, Indiana, is the author of the book from which much valuable in formation was obtained, particularly in outlining the stage drills and posi tions. Over one hundred dollars was real ized after paying expenses and it is hoped the ladies will sive another en tertainment at an early date. SALT FOB THE THROAT. In these days when diseases of the throat are so universally prevalent, and in so many cases fatal we feel it our duty to say a word in behalf of a most effectual, it not positive, cure for sore 1 throat. For many years past indeed we may say ior tne wnoic 01 a jiic 01 more than forty years we have been subject to a dry hacking cough, which is not only distressing to ourselves Imt to our friends and those with whom we are brought into business contact. Last fall we were nlinei to try what virtue there was in common salt. We commenced using it three times a day, morning, noon and night We dissolved a large tablesxmful of pure table salt in half a small lumber ful of water. With this we gargled the throat most thoroughly just before meal time. The result has been that during the entire winter we were not only free from coughs and colds but the dry, hacking cough had entirely dissappeared. We attribute these satisfactory re sults solely to use of salt gargle and most cordially recommend a trial of it to those who are subject to diseases of the throat. Many persons who have never tries. - the salt gargle have the impression that it is unpleasant but after a few day's use no one who loves a nice mouth and first rate sharpener of the appetite will abandon it.
