I was afflicted for several years with
disordered liver, which resulted in a
severe attack of jaundice. I had as
good medical attendance as our sec
tion affords, who failed utterly to re
store me to the enjoyment of my
former good health. I then tried the
favorite prescription of one of the
most renowned physicians of Louis
ville, Ky., but to no purpose ; where
upon I was induced to try 8lnsmns
liver Ilre-nlntor. I found imme
diate benefit from its use, and it ulti
mately restored me to the full enjoy
ment of health.

A rather singular incident is
mentioned in connection with the
burial of Mr. Jas. Robinson, who
died at Matthews station last
Sunday. Mr. Robinson had htn
engaged in gold mining during the
greater part of his lite and h;ul lor
a long time managed the Balti-

Pleasant Grove church yard, near
Matthews. The grave diggers had
just completed the crypt when
their picks uncovered a vein of
rich gold ore. This discovery waj
regarded as a very singular one
and the old miner was literally
laid at rest in a gold mine.

How to Cirow Rich.
Nothing is more easy than to
grow rich. It is to trust nobody,
to befriend none, to get everything
and save all you get, to stint our
us, to be the friend of no man and

beap interest upon interest, to be
to have no man for our friend, to
mean, miserable and despised for
ome twenty or thirty years, and
riches will come as surely as d,V
ease and disappointment. And
after you have become wealthy
you may live a few years longer,
but death comes and your body is
buried in a hole, the heirs rejoice,

Our Public Schools.
Wilson A ' -nce.
The gratitude of the negroes to
the Democratic party for the mon
ey paid them under 'v.m'- atic
administrations is something as
tonishing. The white people of
North Carolina have taxed them
selves to give the nngr :teful ne
groes the benefits of an education.
What returns have they .vce'ved
therefrom! Nothing except con
tinued and hostile opposition to
every measure proposed by the
white people of the State. It may
be well to see, in figures, just whaV
the Democratic party has done for
the education of the negroes in
North Carolina. The Wilmington
Messenger gives the figures on the
subject:
Apropos of matters educational,
how many people know that of
the 82,000,000 annually raised by
taxation, State and county, for
public and educational purposes,
the white people pay 81,875,000
and colored people only 8125,00 J.
It is auother evidence that the
Democrats are the liest friends
the negro ever had and do moie
for his welfare. The negro pays
about 8100,000 poll tax and about
825,000 property tax. He gets for
education every year 8250,000, or
twice as much as the whole vol
ume of his raxes. White men pay
all the State and county expenses,
pay tor all their schools. Can any
people on the face of the earth
beat that record I Here are facts
in cold ami accurate figures.
The Advance believes that the
Democratic party has done ami is
doing too much for the education
of the negro in camparison with
what is being done for the educa
tion ot the white people of the
State. It believes as it has be
fore said that the money collect
ed for educational purposes should
bo given out according to the
needs of the respective schools
white or black. It does not believe
that the money should be distrib
uted per capita, but that a Board
should be appointed in every coun
ty that will see to it that both
schools are run the same length of
time. Let it be the duty of this
Board to engage the teachers.
white and black, at such salaries
as they can lie procured. We do
not believe the average negro
teacher is worth as much, nor do
we believe he should receive as
much pay, as the average white
teacher.
A change in our school law, in
corporating the idea above set
forth, would work untold blessings
to the white children of North
Carolina. We are heart and soul
in favor of such a law aud we be
lieve people over the State are iu
full sympathy with us in it. What
do the brethren of the press think
of the proposition? Wo would
like to hear Irom them on the sub
ject. A Woman's Discovery.
"Another wonderful discoverv
has been made aud that too by a
lady in this county. Disease last
ened its clutches upon her and for
