The Governor's Reception. The Governor's Reception last night was a very brilliant occasion. We had good opportunity to become a judge of crowds 30 years ago, but that training was all in open field, we cant judge by the house f ull.espicially so large a one as the Governor's resi dence. For hours the stream of at tendants arriving and departin was undiminished and the spacious man sion was crowded in every part. The Governofand his very accomplished daughter, Miss Hellen, seemed just as fresh and hearty in their gratula tions after having received for hours, as if you alone were being cordially greeted, when their attention was unexpectedly called to the approach of another just behind you. "The Governor and his fair daughter did the honors of the new mansion with the dignity and grace fully becoming the occasion; and the large number of persons in attendance npon this the first occasion of the kincMn this grand' old commonwealth for nearly a generation, f uliy attest the endorse ment of thepeople of our Governor, and of the establishment of his new home. : : . ' Card ot Thanks. 1 Mr. Editor: I beg leave through the columns of your paper to thank the good people of Raleigh and else where for the great sympathy and substantial aid that has be n extend ed me and my family in my late uiis fortunes. I hardly know how to ex press my feelings, my heart is too full of honest, sincere gratitude for utter ance. Taken as 1 was, suddenly from my home and family, it is impossible for me to tell you, dear friends, how anxious I felt about the condition of my dear wife and little babies; but what could I do except trust God the Father of us all, and when a jury of my country said I was "not guilty " I went in great hasts to these loved ones and they told me with their eyes filled with tears of joy for me and gratitude to you how much the good people of Raleigh and elsewhere had done for them. I realized then that my prayers had been answered, and the good Lord had sent in you the good Samaritan. May God bless you, one and all my friends, and may He so direct me that I may always prove worthy of your confidence and re spect. W. E. Hogtjk. The Meeting Last Night.

Oh that awful word credit, how many men have had their wealth scattered to the wind, and many of them their souls ushered into eternity by the use of credit ? Ninety-nine out ot oue hundred will abuse it, and when abused often destroys the soul with it. This is no idle word but facts. We could point you to many instances that come under your own observa tion who lost their property,' if not their souls by this awful thing called credit. You had better when you leave your home with a memorandum made out for $20 worth of goods and with only $10 to pay on same, you had better stop and reflect and re member that you can buy more good at D. T. Swindell's than anywhere else for $10. Remember we buy for cash and leave no stone nnturned to take all the advantages of cash which you all know is powerful and will pre vail. We sell for the self- same musi cal stuff called cash. D. T. SWIUDELL. Wake Superior Court.
