Goats are gentle, goats are loving, And to serve mankind they try; But; you fool yourself in thinking That a Billy goat ctin die. Death the Reaper still is reaping, But he never reaps a goat; If the reason, you must ask me, l will tell you in tins note.

This brave knight of whom I tell you Eats up all the tin in town, Which would blunt the scythe of : death, sir, Should he try to cut Ihim down." ! Prize fighting is not exactly what might be termed a Sunday topic with some people. But among the "dead game sports" of Raleigh and the balance . of the "sporting" world on this hemisphere it is just now a favorite subject of con versation every day in the week, and speculation and bets on the outcome of the "mill" betwen Fitz;mmons and Jeffries, scheduled to come off ten days hence (or, to be exact, on the evening of June 9) at Coney Island, are rife. As The Post numbers among its seven thousand daily subscribers poo pie wdth all kinds of t a site and mental appetite, including the "talent,"-the of Morgan and Salisbury streets, is a wreck, and soon the last vestige of it will have been removed to make room for a new and handsomer church building. Passing by the scene yesterday of its conflicts and conquests I observed the historic old church-bell dis mantled and laid low upon the earth, and these thoughts ftm through my mind: a fight against oppression. Was It a stroke of State? Where uch disturb ances occur between rhe ruler ami those ruled. Is there not disease in the body politic, and U not nature at tempting to nurge herself by throw- ing off the poison? The war of the Regulation resembles the civil war in England of HH2, and If your brazen tongue could spejik, h Relators, Hampden, Pym and old bell, what a story you would have , , . 0 tii. that great rebel, or hero, Cromwell. -i. r, 5,- rliii.in(r mill' TYWfl f- I mi uiie i. fl0llmvin?? pointers anent the approneh- tes elsteme- ., . . . i"ff scrap are given for the benefit of ell. as I sa;d, I am going into the L others who are advised goat, g-o-a-t bus-mess.

Consider the condition of affairs ot the time of the battle of Alamance. In 1737 there was trouble under Iov eruor oonnston in regard to taxes. These troubles had nor ceased to ex 1st. mere was a lack of cunvnev in the province no old or silver, and li rely enough money to pav taxes Coventor Tryon, like Hheobu.im. made the burden more grievous.

To this the names of the river testify Haw River In the western section becomes ("ape Fear in the eastern. So the time was pecul iarly congenial to tyranny, but the people were not so ulted.
