A LINE TO Tin: DELEGATES.
The following rhyme, dedicated to
the colored delegates at St. Louis,
has been sent to the Press-Visitor:
Watermelyum most ripe,
Roastenears in de patch.
Red bugs a biten,’
How dey makes a fellow scratch !
Out west deys got a 'vention.
Nigger stands no show;
Got no place to sleep and eat.
Dare’s bound to be a row.
Nigger’s got no lover
Cross de Mason line;
Dis shows up at de meetin’
Whar de gold bug’s tryin’ to shine.
Dey had better stick to the white
folks,
Whose 'nowed ’em since dey was
born,
And who dey has to go to
When de hopper needs more corn.
Old Nigger.
Hon. Chas. F. Crisp ±n Asheville.
The Asheville Daily Citizen says:
Hon. Chas. F. Crisp and Mrs.
Crisp arrived here last night, and
are staying at the Battery Park ho
tel. The distinguished Georgian
has not enjoyed good health for
some time, and he came here for re
cuperation.
The handsome ex-Speaker was
asked for a history of the last Con
gress. Mr. Crisp replied that Con
gress had passed a large number of
very heavy appropriation bills, and
that was all. “Very little if any
good was accomplished,” he con
tinued. “The majority studiously
avoided doing anything, and there
was no general legislation.”
Mr. Crisp thought it a foregone con
clusion that the Democratic national
convention would adopt a free silver
platform. While the Republican
platform would probably not declare
unequivocally for gold, yet he was
of the opinion that it would be prac
tically a gold platform.
Mr. Crisp said his State was easi
ly in the silver column; that a lively
campaign was now in progress there,
but his health had not permitted
him to take an active part. He
thought politics in North Carolina
decidedly complicated. He remark
ed: “I do not pretend to understand
the situation and do not see how
anyone can.”
The Summer School for Teachers.
The University Summer School
for teachers will begin June 23rd
and last one month in the Univer
sity buildings. Chapel Hill is a de
lightful summer resort, and many
teachers are already there enjoying
the campus and library, and resting
in the shade of the majestic oaks.
Tickets on the certificate plan with
agent’s signature will be bought
by teachers going, and on the return
~the agent in Chapel Hill will sell
tickets at one-third the regular rate.
It is expected that 300 teachers will
attend the Summer School this ses
sion.
“THE TRIUMPH OF LOVE
IS HAPPY, FRUITFUL MARRIAGE.”
Every Man Who Would Know the
Grand Truths, the Plain Facts, the
New Discoveries of Medical Science
us Applied to Married Life, Who
Would Atone for Past Errors and
Avoid Future Pitfalls, Should Secure
the Wonderful Little Book Called
“Complete Manhood, and How to At
tain It.”
“ Here at last is information from a high
medical source that must work wonders wit h
this generation of men.”
The book fully describes a method by which
to attain full vigor and manly power.
A method by which to end all unnatural
trains on the system.
To cure nervousness, lack of self-control, de
spondency, &c.
To exchange a jaded and worn nature for
one of brightness, buoyancy and power.
To cure forever effects of excesses,overwork,
worry, &c.
To give full strength, development and tone
to every portion and organ of the body.
Age no barrier. Failure impossible. Two
thousand references.
The book is purely medical and scientific,
useless to curiosity seekers, invaluable to men
only who need it.
A despairing man, who had applied to us,
soon after wrote:
“Well, I tell you that first day is one I'll
never forget. I just bubbled with joy. I
wanted to hug everybody and tell them my
old self had died yesterday, and my new self
was born to-day. Why didn’t you tell mo
when I first wtoto that I would find it this
way?”
And another thus: V
“If you dumped a cart load of gold at my
feet it would not bring such gladness into my
life as your method has done.”
Write to the ERIE MEDICAL COMPANY,
Buffalo, N. and ask for the little book
called ^COMPLETE MANHOOD.” Refer to
this paper, and the company promises to send
the book, in sealed envelope, without any
marks, and entirely free, until it is well intro
duced.
