If advertising does not pay, then why do those who advertise the largest, so willingly continue the use ofprinter's ink f It pays to tell the people of your wares. The people like to read in their borne paper, what their merchants keep and bow the goods are priced &c. The Roller Mill has been in full blast this week. The machinery works to perfection, and the flour is as good as can be made out of wheat. Mauy families in town have given it a trial and pronounce it equal to any roller process flour.- 2fewtQn Enterprise. Col. W. H. H. Cowles, our able and heroic Representative, strack the key note when he introduced the Revenue bill and had it reftered to the committee on Appropriations. The Northern and Southern daily paper almost daily contain notices of 'Cowles' Bill". The Charlotte Chronicle is a credit to the beautiful and enter Rising city of Charlotte.. Surely the citizens are delighted with the;r bright, neat newsy paper. The tone otthe paper shows that the editor 13 not hampered and that be is free to speak right out in meeting. Success to the Chronicle. It is almost without doubt that the present Legislature will estab lish a railroad commission.

' o Hickory Grove Alliuuce, Xo 99 We, the cotumitte appointed by the President, to look after the mat ter aud investigate, without preju dice to either party, the Guano Co. or the Farmers Alliance, We, the Farmers Alliance of Hickory Grove, No. 949, after takiug the whole matter iuto consideration have come to this ccnclusion: that owing to uncertainty of auytbiug like a full crop of cotton, &., and prices of cotton ruling low, aud are astou isbed to learn, through our county agent -and from other sources, that Guano Companies, or a portion of them, have advauced iu prices ou their Guano. And we heieby, as a whole, Besolve, 1st. That we, the farmers of Hickory Grove, will go to work and make all the home made manure that we possibly can. Resolve, '2nd. That if we cannot make enough of home made manure to supply our cotton lands that we will trust to providence and to our lands tor the balance. Resolve, 3rd.

The rain falls incessantly, and the ground is wet forty feet deep. The roads are good and soft. Too much dry weather makes the roads so hard that they cannot be put iu - a condition that would pacify the Hpairnf the traveling uuhlic : too .' much wet weather reuders them so muddy that it is unnecessary to throw dirt in the low places, there by making more mud and mortar. The traveling public", and some other people who think themselves a little better than their equals, think the roads ought to be worked and worked, leveled, drained, and cleared of all obstructions. Now, I would like to know why the roads should be so nice and smooth!; They are as good as the cartways ou our farms, aud mill and church roads. It is very seldom, if ever, that a vehicle Is broken, a beast falls in a gnlly, or a man is pitched into a mudfhole solely on account of the roads being in an unlawful condition. Remember the addage, "let well enongh alone.'" There is no use in a man always going at a break-neck speed; he will get through the world soon enough any way. Some people are never sat isfied only when, they are ciscon tented -t and are never at peaoe ex cept when engaged in war. These stuck up folks think they know best, but they don't.

McAaden, ot Charlotte, wh-ch occurred last week, was quite a great loss to Mecklenburg and Gastou counties, especially. He was an enterprising man, aud able to carry out whatever he undertook. The Charlotte Chron- cle contains the following: The estate is vilued at 8350,000 not iucludiug the life inturance which was $110,000: Tnis is the largest estate that has ever been re corded iu the county of Mecklen burg. Tne will was made last April, and in it Mr. McAden appoints his brother, Dr. J. H. McAadeo, his sole executor and the guardian of his cbildteu. The witnesses are Mr P. Pegram and Archibald Graham.

Dow Do Y'ou Spell Cleveland That was the questiou that agitat ed the minds of the members of the House last Friday. Mr. L. Y, Wal ser, of Davidson, had introduced a bill to change the spell'ug of the name Cleveland couuty to CleAve land county. He contended that the revolu tionary hero, tor whom the county was named. spelled the uame Cleavelaud aud that it was an act of vandalism in the last Legisla ture to change the spelling toCleve. land. Dr. Hmrick, representative from Cleveland, took the ground tuat the penple knew how they wanted their county uamd' Mr Blanton, of McDowell, who was raised in Cleveland, agreed wi'h Dr. Hamrick and added that the old Revolutionary hero, Ben Gleve Iaud, spelt his name as does Grover Cleveland, and said that the mistake origr.ally made was when the coun ty was organized. The introducer of the bill spelt it CleAveland, when he should have omitted the first a. Mr, Hoke thought the same way. At this juncture a txo tion who made to lay the bill ou the table. But tor the motion to lay it on the table, which was car ried, Dr Hamrick would have in troduced this resolution- "Amend bv changing the name of of Zeb Vance Walser to Oliver Dockery Walser.

If we know all the methods of approach adopted by an enemy we are the better en abled to ward off the danger and postpone the moment whn surrender becomes in evitable. In many instances the inherent strength of the body suffices to ecab'e it PPe lhe tendency toward death. Many however have lost these force to such an extent that there is little or no help. Id other cases a little aid to the weakened Lungg will make all the difference between sudden death an 1 many years of useful life. Upon the first symptoms ot a Cough, Could or an? trouble of the Throat or Lungs, give that old and well-known rem edy Boschee's German Syrup, a careful trial.
