John E d wards JJeau The Richmond Dispatch of March the 81st says : Rev. Dr. John E. Ed wards, whose death we announced this morning, (which occurred on the afternoon of the 30th at Lynchburg) was a preacher of wonderful magnes ?ism. From youth to old age he pos sessed great power over the multi tudes, and had feW superiors in ear nest plead-' ng and picturesque, im passioned oratory. He was an ear nest and sincere man, and, while de voted to his own denomination, had a kindly heart and helping hand for all who labored in the Master'n. vine yard, j Here in Richmond he spent many years of his life. Here be has great numbers of lo ing friends, and these, with the general community, will lament that his eloquent tongue is forever stilled, while they rejoice in the belief that his more than a half century's pastoral work has entitled him to enter into that kingdom the glories of which he so long preached, 15 bunches Bananas $1 00 to $1.25 per bunch, or 25 cents per dozen at XJ.X. jpUUBOA'ti. Iv Saunders. The announcement of the death of this distinguished North Carolinian which occurred at the Yarboro House in this city, this morning at 1:30 o'clock, will carry pangs of rigret to thensandsof hearts throughout our State Such has been the physical condition if Col. Saunders for several years past,thatit is a matter of won. der that be has survived so long. In spite of this, however, there were liugering hopes that he might yet be spared for still more service to tho grand old commonwealth he has so well and faithfully served. e are not iu possession of sufficient facts to enter into full details of the life and chaiacter of the lamented decease. and, hence, we must confine ourselvf s to such a- limited sketch as our im perfect information will afford. At the time of his death, Col. Saun j ders was in the 66th year of his age, ' having been born in Raleigh, July , 30th, 1831. He was a graduate of the , State University of the class of 1851, . and was during life the firm and last ing friend of the Institution. t In 185G he was admitted to the bar, having studied under that most learn ed jurist, Judge Battle. Up to the time of the breaking out of the Civil War he was a resident of Salisbury. . He soon left the dry technicalities of the law to enter upon what seemed to him the more agreeable life of a ' journalist. He became one of the ' editors of the Salisbury Banner, in which capacity he served until his State called him to her defence. Passing over many of the events in his military career, it can be stated that he served in the most honorable capacity, having been twice wounded once seriously. In 1873, in connec tion with his life long friend, Maj. J. A. Engelhard, he conducted the Wil mington Journal with singular abili ty. In 1876, he became connected with the Raleigh Observer.in connec tion with Maj. P. M. Hale. On the death of Maj. Engelhard, in 1879, Col. Saunders was appointed by Gov. Jar vis, Secretary of State, a position which he held at the time of his eaj.n .

They are known to Him who rules the destinies of all. Charity which we are taught to be lieve covers a multitude of sins was a shining trait in his character, and truly could it be said that he dis pensed it with a willing hand. The remains were deposited in Christ Church today, and, we learn, will be taken to Tarboro tomorrow for burial. Norris' Dry Goods Store.

It does not taste like medicine. It is as pleasant as lemonade, and, sweetened, makes a most refreshing drink. Persons who object to all other medicines take this with , real pleasure, because it is good. I 2, It never nauseates. The most delicate stomach finds in this a perfect remedy with out a single objection. j 3. It never swaps off one disease for another. It does not set up one form of dis ease in order to relieve another as is the case with so many deadly drugs. 4. It does not patch simpiy. It cures. It reaches, as nothing else does, to the hid den sources of disease in the blood, and re moves the cause. It does this with an ease and power that have never been equaled. .nature, in ner secret laooraiones, nas never produced a finer chemical compound, nor imparted to one such matchless gifts of healing. It is absolutely without a rival or a peer iu its superb mastery of disease. It is truly, as Henry W. Grady said of it, "the ultima thule of medicines," Price $1.00 per bottle.
