The steward and assistant surgeon of the asylum prefer the charges. The investigations have been pushed with great zeal and will be carried further still. Mr. Busbee, who was employed for the prosecution has withdrawn and A. M. "Waddell has been secured in his stead. The charges are cruel tv to patients, gross immoral ty and mis-appropriation of funds. It is to be hoped one so long trusted bv the State may be able to show them untrue. Soon To Be. The ONE thing that Hickory has long needed is a new depot. We have had something to say on this subject before, and we are glad to announce now that the new depot i a thing of Ihe not far distant future. It is to be built at once. Emoloves i • of the railroad were in the city Tuesday laying of! the ground and taking measurements. The lumber is bong hauled, and not long have ~ O we to wait for this improvement. Tobacco blindness is becoming a common affliction. At present there are several persons under treatment for it at one London hospital. It lirst takes the form of color blind uess, the sulierers who have smoked themselves into this condition being quite unable to distinguish the color of a piece of red cloth held up be fore them. Sonu times the victim loses his eyesight altogether. Al though smoking is to a large extent n u c 1 the cause of the malady, ai.d so gives it its name, heavy drinking is also partly responsible. The farmers in a s ction ( f Row an, N. C., have addressed an affecting appeal to the State alliance for aid, they say their gardens truck patch es, wheat, winter oats and fiuit crops were all swept from them by a destructive hail storm. The Salis burv l"feraid thinks such, an appeal casts a slur u n on the county. ,;nd -a\ s the men w hose names are sigi ed are ail weil to do farmeis anil abie to bear their losses without inurmur mg. The Ith Regiment Band boy- have receivt d tlu ir fat:gue uniforms and are about ready, in ail particulars, for the contest at the encampment. Tli' y!♦ iv* 011 the 81h and with their e\peri diiiimgand | i >ticienc\ in the musical department we ieei sure of th« il* success, and ail patiiots in ur grand county of C.itawba should t"e. proud to have such a representati >ll as the 4th at such a grand and glo rious occasion. People cook up a lor of "vittals" and pay a lot of money to be hauled otV m the wood> to eat it. and ca » it a "pic nic A lot of our people who engaged 111 this luxury ia-t Fri day think a rainy day not best for a pic-nic. The "Hickory Racket St>;e," which has been run by Mr. L. H. Phillips in the storeroom n \r d- or to t tie beef mark it, has been moved into the handso ue br.ck building, tothefurmt ire st»r . which wa lately occupied by S. S.

'l'lie* Atlantic. To the people of this eastern sea board and particularly to the people of North Carolina is the above name pregnant with meaning. Ancient mythology had the giant Atlas who supported the wcrld on his sho ri ders; Africa has that grim sentinel and pillar of the universe. Mount Atlas: many nations and tribes have the pleasure and profit of the vast Atlantic ofcean; but North Carolina has the individual distinction of pos sessing that chief ot he alth and pleas ure resorts, the Atlantic Hotel. The disposition lately developed among our readers of this city and section to spend their vacations at the sea side just as persons from the low country spend theirs our no ble mountains makes it eminently proper that the PKESS AND CAROLINIAN should tell them something of what it ias found to be the surpassing advantages of the North Carolina coast. And now of Morehead city, the terminus of the A. iV N. C. R. R. and of the last annual session held there of that most delightful and in structive institution, the Teachers' Assembly—merely reversing the 01 der. We use the term "delightful" deliberately because we have read it in the faces of those wl o are there fresh from the confining life of the school-rot m eagerly nn eting broth ers ami sisters in the cause from ail directions of the compass as though they were really re united n emla of one family; we say "instructive" with fip.ia! deliberation because we have sat in that elegant and commo dious Assemby Hall and iis'.ened to the words of such great educators as Gov. Col. Saunders and Maj. Finger of the board of State ( flicf-rs—Dt s Battle and Tit i " and Prof's Winston. Humes ami Alexander of the Stare Vniverib Prof's Smith of Davidson. Poteal of Wake Forest. Alderman, MtTver. Holt. Claxton and many other dis tinguished teachers in the high ami d r> graded schools. No greater tribute can be paid to the character of our people than to say that they, by their actions, are repelling as an insult and falsehood the former taunt of their unparalh lit d illitera cy. And never before have oui childten enjoyed the advantages of sucii imjutived irntln'ds or enthusi astic teachers as have been the -ur growth of this communion of similar ambitions and exchange of expni ! nee and ideas. 1 ruth lias depart* i frnsn the "»ld sentiment that "Gave is the Master s look: forehead wears Thick rows of wrinkles, print- of \\ orr\ itig cares : l*t;easv lie the heads of ail that 111 !e. His wor-t of all whose king loin i a school." Rut the question is often as! • ,1. **Whv is an extrt me location -elected in ]"» reference t(> a central one The solution is simple. The co Ist is preferred for a 1 f he pleasures of delicious breezes, surf and sound bathing, fishing, boating, etc . an t the Atlantic Hotel for its capacity to accommodate so vast a crowd with perfect ea»e and comfort and its willingness to do so at such nod ♦ rate rates a- are within the reach of a'J. Everything is conducted upon a } erfect system, rooms e'ean and well furnished, tables supplied with the pro lucts of -ea and land, sei vants rumtrous at d polite, and b--t of all the proprietor a mos' at!'a >'e ami obliging gentleman. itit the 11 rangements and help u: lei Ranee's control he i- alve to care *•» r a thousand people as ♦ tsilv as a hundred and does it in sucn a manner that the pleasure of all ire looked after 1:0 less than tbeir wants. Perhaps after all the open secret of our weakness for this resort is that it is patronized by many of the most delightful ladies, both married and 1111- ("mostly uu-") it has often been our good fortune to meet. They are here iu all the beauty and charm of figure and of mind, using without stint the powers they possess. If there is any hope for the future do mestic happiness of some of our more youthful editors it must dwell in the intoxicating atmosphere fresh fanned from the wings of Venus which hovers about the parlors and balconies of the Atlantic Keep Insured. Mr. W. H. Wilfong, whose house was burned some shoit time since, had his property insured in the Ya. F. A. M. Co., through the Hickory Fire Insurence Agency, L. G. lUv cV Co., manager*. Trey have settled in full with Mr. Wilfong for his loss, the same company satisfactorily adjusted te» all concerned. This enables Mr. Wilfong to now rebuild, which he sa}s he will commence to do at once. About a y* ar ago this same building was struck by Ligtit ning. and for which he then received through Mr. Hay for the Co.. a considerable amount for damages, although tire didn't occur. Ail of this goes to show the great importance of keeping}our property well protected by imsurance against os- or damage from tire, or Light ning. The above agency is comprised of a member of first; class standard and old companies. 3Ta£2tziiie Notes. The June number of the Old Homestead contains Cleopatra by H.
