FkOM the Wilmington (Delaware; Star we clip the following paragraph: Our esteemed contemporary, the the burning of plantations and facto Kvery livening says it does not regard ries uy the Cuban insurgents, as war, but rather as brigandage. Has our esteemed contemporary every heard of Sherman's raid through (leorgia? Says the Winston Sentinel, and many there are who will endorse its sentiments: "If the defeat of the I'ni versity of North Carolina football team on Thursday, shall result in the abandonment of these brutal contests by oui boys it will be a bigger victory than if they had cleaned up the Uni versity of Virginia team." Tiik public will now have something else to engage its attention for awhile. Congress met Monday. The Repub licans have an overwhelming majority in the House and ex Speaker Thomas 11. Reed, of Maine, will again preside. Shaker Crisp received the unanimous vote of the Democrats for re-election to the siK-akcrship a position he has filled with distinguished ability during the past two years. I i tvas indeed with painful surprise that we read of the death of Mr. Geo. W. Rlount, of Wilson, which occurred at his home in that place Friday morn ing. He had not been in sound health for some time having suffered an attack of apoplexy a few months ago at which trine he came near dy ing. Mr. lilount was owner of the Wilson Minor and brother of Henry lilount, editor of that paper. He was a successful lawyer, a prominent Mason and a trustee of the Wake Forest College. Mr. lilount was an upright, consistent Christian, a member of the liaptist church and high minded gentleman. He was well known throughout the State and his death will be greatly lamented. A MAMMOTH XEWSL'APKU. The "cotton mill edition" of the Raleigh Neics and Observer, issued on Thanksgiving day, was the most gi gantic as well as the most creditable thing yet accomplished in North Car olina journalism. Nor has it been surpassed in the South as far as we know. It was 36 pages, illustrated with cuts of factory buildings, pictures of the owners and managers, female operatives, ike, the whole forming a comprehensive and intelligent epitome ofthecottcn manufacturing industry in North Carolina. It was a marvel ous undertaking and a brilliant achievement and will do incalculable good to the State in giving a belter and fuller knowledge of this particular line of industry. To Mr. F. 15. Aren-, dell, of the Xeics and Observer staff to whom was assigned the task of gath ering the data a' d writing up the va rious cotton mills of the State and the details of business, too much praise can not be given. He did his work well and is entitled to a large share of the credit for the success of this mag nificent number of which we write. MINISTER RANSOM COMING HOME. Evidently, Minister Ransom thinks there is no place like home. I le had not been at his post in the City of Mexico long before he returned to this country on account of his health. He protracted his stay until it began to be doubted that he would go back at all, or if the office he held was really of much importance since it did not seem to require the presence of the Minister to discharge any duties that were supposed to be attached thereto. Now it is announced that Minister Ransom is about to visit his old home again. From an exchange we copy the following: The Two Republics, of Mexico, says lion. Matthew V. Ransom, the distinguished North Carolinian diplo mat who is entered with the high mis sion of the United States Minister of this government, is contemptlat ing a visit to his family by Christmas, lie will be accompanied by his son Robert and expects to be absent one month. Editor E. .1. Hale, of the Fayetle ville Observer, is sending out to the school superintendents of the State a circular letter, calling attentiou to the effort now being made to raise funds for the erection of a Vance Mon ument. He calls attention to the eruest ef forts to give the monument impetus being made by Mrs. Neil W. Ray, of Fayetteville, and suggests that the va rious schools of the State set apart Tuesday, December the Oth, as a day on which to meet and contribute some thing, no matter how small a mite each child contributes towards the fund. THE ATLANTA EXPOSITION It is well worth seeing for the enter tainment it affords, and a critical study of it would result in a liberal education to the student. It is a pleasure to see so many North Carolinians there; they are encountered at almost every turn. If "reading maketh a full man, con ference a ready man, and writing an exact man," travel makes a broad one, if one use the opportunities it affords for observation. The objects set up Atlanta just now for observation are ample f jr a month's study, and they cannot be passed, with even the most cursory examination, without giving impressions which will stay and from which one will derive future benefits. So the staement that it is a pleasure to see so many North Carolinians there is repeated. What they see there will increase their fund of knowledge, and broaden their ideas. "Does the trip pay?" was asked by his neighbors of a citizen of the State who had just returned from the exposition "It will pay any one," was the reply, "who can get the worth of his money out of his eyes." The answer was an apt one. It has been said that the exposition is taking a great deal of money out of North Carolina. Keeping money is one of the least useful of all the things that can be done with it. The wisdom of its expenditure varies with the value of everything for which it is spent. Spent in seeing the exposition, it is applied to a high and useful purpose; those who are thus spending it are getting a full equivalent for it. It is no part of the present purpose to "write up" the exposition, but to speak of it only in general terms. It is infinite in its details, and many of these, of chiefest local interest, have already been touched upon in these columns. Expression must, however, be given to the regret, which finds such general expression, that North Carolina makes so beggarly a showing, com pared with what she is capable of. She is seen here and there in various build ings, and the glimpses caught of her show the State in an exceedingly tav orable light. The best possible was done, no doubt, under the circumstan ces, but the circumstances were within the State's control, and should have been directed differently. Such another opportunity to show what North Car olina has will notpresent itself soon. An expression of admiration of the pluck which Atlanta evidenced in es saying such an enterprise as this ex position, ought not to be withheld. It is worthy of all praise. It is a com mon observation, and a just one, that not many cities of twice Atlanta's size would have assumed such a burden or, assuming it, would have carried it out so successfully. It is this indomnitable spirit that has made the Gate City what it is. The exposition will not pay out, but the citizens will go down in their pocket for the deficit and look for and realize re-imbursement in' deferred and indirect benefits. All hnoor to them! Charlotte Observer: WHICH IS WORSE? Says the Petersburg Index-Appeal with much timeliness and truth: It is a mere affectation of virtue in a state executive to call out the military to supress prize-fighting when the same state not only tolerates but encourages and lauds football playing. We hazard the assertion that there has never been witnessed at any prize fight such scenes of disorder and rodwyism as disgraced the streets and public re sorts of Richmond last Thursday as the result of the interstate game of football played there on that day. Ribaldry, drunkenness, rowdyism and violence were rampant, and the chief actors in these disgraceful scenes were young men scarcely out of their teens, whose training and opportunities in life justify the expectations of better things. Athletics were well enough in their place and ought to be en couraged, but ruffianism should be sternly suppressed. In teaching our young men to be manly they should also be taught to be gentlemanly. This, after all, is the most important thing in any course of educational training, and any school or college that fails in this, the highest of educa tional standards, is a curse rather than a blessing. An Interesting Announcement for Our Readers. We have secured for the exclusive use of the readers of the Gold Leaf a series of articles on the Sandwich Islands by the distinguished historian and novelist, John It. Musick. These articles are being prepared by the au thor on the spot. He is now at Hon olulu, and will visit each of the islands of the Hawaiian group. They will have the peculiar living freshness that can only be given to such when writ ten at the place ou the very days the writer beholds them. They will be a series of descriptive and historical ar ticles, or letters about that country. Mr. Musick will furnish us therefore ar ticles rich iu descriptive sceuery, filled with authentic history and facts, and lightened by incidents of travel and ad venture, making them more fascinating than a novel. No portion of the world is today at tracting more attention thau the Sand wich Islands: and yet, much as they have beeu mixed in American politics for the last forty years the masses of readers know but "little of the social life and customs of the islanders, and could not tell off-hand whether they lived in modern houses, iu huts, wig wams, or caves. It will be the object of these letters not only to briefly sketch the past aud preseut ot the Hawaiian Islands, but to carry the reader directly into the private life of the people who inhabit them; their past aud present govern ment, the overthrow of monarchy, and the setting up of a Republic will be narrated from a non-political stand poiut. Iu this respect they will have a peculiar interest because iu the com iug Presidential contest the question of annexation will be agitated. These letters will contain hundreds of item of great interest, all told iu a highly entertaining, instructive, and unbiased ruanuer. Iu short we have a rich treat for our readers for the entire winter. We see that Comptroller Eckels has ordered Col. Burgwyu, 13auk Ex aminer, to take charge of the failed Chattahoochee National Bank, of Co lumbus, Ga. The bank had a capital of $100,000. THE GREAT EXPOSITION. No One Can Afford to Miss it Tae South Needs More People to Develop Its Resources Crowds from All Sec tions in Attendauee. f Correspondence Charlotte Observer.! "All roads lead towards Rome" was comrflon observation several cen turies ago. The same to-day is true of Atlanta. A flood of humanity over flows from the Union depot with the arrival of every train. The streets are as crowded as those of a country town during court week, with a circus and a horse trot going on at the same time. Notwithstanding me incon veniences, long waits, unavoidable dis appointmentsand vacilating trifles that all rr.ust meet, good nature rules on all occasions, and in a several days' visit the writer saw no case of loss of temper nor heard a single "cuss wori." The old political habitues of the Kimball House have had to surrender their regular stamping ground in the foyer and retire perforce to the cloak rooms of the State House before this cosmopolitan horde that have taken possession of the city. A glance at the hotel registers shows the present floating population to have been drawn from all parts of the compass, though in numbers the citizens of the neigh boring States predominate. Frag ments of conversation whenever over heard are all complimentary to the efforts made and results there from for the exposition is representa tive, as "Was intended, of the whole Scuth, 3.nd it is a very frequent com ment from some distant and surprised stranger that the country and exhibits are both so different from what they had imagined or expected to find. The general concensus of opinion gatnered from many sources is that the South only needs population to immediately develop its resources and under any circumstances has a great future before itself. Of the fair and what there is to see, probably little that has not been said could be told. The writer found the train of Pullman cars which are open for inspection very interesting, the government exhibit very fine, and under this head the United btates Fish Commission have a very extensive and pleasing display of live fish which aitrart a preat deal of attention. In the War Department the topograph ical map of Central America, show ing water of the Panama and Nicaragua canals furnishes useful knowledge on a subject that is soon likely to occupy Congress. No one who can spar the time can afford not to go to this great exhibition at the present .low rates of fare. Asa matter of education, patriotism and, a pleasant memory to carry through life every one who possibly can should manage to do so at once. Louis De LaCroix. Charlotte, N. C, Nov. 22, '95. A STAND OFF. Some papers take a great pleasure in Walter R. Henry's failure to se cure Kentucky, but these identical sheets fail to see that the vociferous Johnny R. Morris didn't even make "My Maryland" hold her own, but let her slide out of the old regime. When two such statesmen partici nate in the campaign of other States, it is hardlv the correct thing to note the result in one and fail to see the gigantic joke that happens in the other. Rockingham Index. The point in the above would be well taken if the facts in the case bore it out. But it loses its force for the simple reason that Mr. Henry had no part in the work of "securing Ken tucky." He made no speeches in the Blue Grass State during the campaign, although invited to do so. NORTH CAROLINA EXHIBIT. An Interesting Feature in the Mining and Forestry Building. The North Carolina mineral exhibit in the Mining and Forestry building, which has just been awarded a gold medal, is as it was planned to be, a practical one throughout. The rare species and fancy specimens have been left at home, and the materials which make up the exhibit there have been selected from the best known workable deposits of iron, gold, silver, copper, coal, corundum, kaolin, stone, and other geological products. The more important mines are indi cated on the geographical maps and beautifu illustrated transparencies in the wiudows over the exhibit, and a colored chart, 240 feet long, shows the various geological formations across the eutire State, including valuable mineral deposits in the middle aud western counties, and artesian water supplies iu the eastern counties. An important feature of these Xorth Carolina exhibits is that their complete ness, arransemeut and labelling, give an educational value not elsewhere seen. The exhibits themselves tell the whole story. Thus the monazite ex hibitthe rare mineral used in the manufacture of the new Welsbach gas burner, shows the rock and soil in which the mineral occurs large photograph transparencies in the window and a complete mining outfit sh.ow.the meth ods of mining and washing the sand, aud the illumination of the building with Welsbach lights completes the ex hibit. A similar completeness charac terizes the phosphate, iron, gold, kaolin, and other exhibits. The building stoue collection includes marble, serpentines, quartzes and granite, of all colors, texture, aud sandstone in great variety and the large carved vase and doorway of browustone, from Sanford, X. C, shows a perfection of stone and work mauship rarely met with anywhere. In gems and gold nuggets the North Caroliua collections surpass those from any other State. Indeed, in the gem collection for the whole South, Torth Carolina contributes more thau half of the entire exhibit. Iu the forestry end of the building the Old North State has an exhibit of specimeus of valuable woods and pho tographs and maps, such as shows up her wouderful forest resources in good shape. Here, as elsewhere, Killers' fine transparencies of North Carolina landscapes show off to good advantage. THE BEST is what the People buy the tnost of.

U.S.A MADE FROM Nigh Grade Tobacco ABSOLUTELY PURE SHORT TALKS ON ADVERTISING. IC'opj right by Charles Austin Bates. 1 The use of illustrations in advertising is becoming more and more general and more intelligent. The English are great adiiiirws of what the call "blocks" in their advertising, and have always used more and better illustrations than Americans have. The stiff, old, stereotyped Bond cut, representing a watch, or u shoe, or a trunk, has been out of use with us only a few years. Such cuts are used even now in many plnces. . I am not sure that Wariainaker origi nated the use of artistic outline cuts in advertising, but it is certain that the Wanamaker cuts have had a great influ enee on advertisement illustrating. - Their chief merit lies in the fact that they fdiOw the article pictured as it looks 111 actual use. If the advertisement is about shoes, the picture is of a man pulling on an easy shoe, or of a dainty, stylish woman lifting a pretty and shapely foot. The illustrations are always sugges tive and always well drawn. I may as well say here that I do not think much of the alleged humorous cuts that are used more or less all over the country; the ones which run to puns and "cuteness." The may attract atten tion isn't the best an ad. can do. A comic cut isn't convincing. It doesn't tell anything, about the man or the goods advertised. I don't believe that such ads. se.ll goods. The English idea is very largely th use of some pretty picture, irrespective of ita subject, or its relation to the thing advertised. The idea in this case also is to attract attention. I think it is wrong. A cut should be used merely to illustrate the advertisement, and not as the ad vertisement, itself. Illustration should be subordinate. In ordinary, daily newspaper advertising the cut should be email. I like the outline cuts about an inch and a half wide, with reading mat ter set down one side, (ienerally speak ing, I would not have more than three display lines in the ad, and more often only two the head line and the name of the advertiser. And the name should be smaller than the head line.

Two very important facts in connec tion with the new era of magazines are illusttraed in the December Cosmopoli tan. Its fiction is by Stevenson, the last story written before his death, "Ouida," Sarah Grand Zangwill, and the begin ning of James Lane Allen's new Kentucky realistic story 'Buutternies." Probably no stronger array of fiction has ever been presented in any magazine money could not buy better. Xor has any magazine ever had a larger number of really dis tinguished artists engaged upon the il lustration of a single number. The reader might puzzled to know how such a number can be made at the price of ten cents. It contains 13!) pages of adver tising, which as the publishers announce, is from $4,000 to $8,000 more net cash advertising than was ever before printed in any magazine, for any kind, and iu any country. It broaks the world's record in the publishiug business. More over, the cost of the artists and authors who apjiear in this number is divided among -400,000 copies bringing the cost per copy proportionately low. The Cos mopolitan thinks that the ten cent maga zine, bringing, as it does, the best in art and literature into all classes, is an edu cational movement second in import ance only to that of the public schools.
