Dewey Cashier and Col. W. E. Anderson, Clerk. A Good Appointment. As heretofore intimated in the Vis itor the President of the United States has appointed Col. Thos. C. Fuller, of Raleigh, to the high judi cial position of an Associate Justice of the United States Land Claim Court, which was established under a recent act of Congress. In making this appointment Presi dent Harrison has honored North Carolina no less than Col. Fuller. As an eminent lawyer, patriotic citizen and true gentleman he will fill with the highest credit the honor conferred upon him. 5,000 gents hemstitched h'dk'fs, 10c, a great bargain. Gents gauze and merino undershirts 25c, 44c and 48c each. The best unlaundried shirt in the city for 50c and 60c at Woollcott & Son's. Iu Prison Hounds. We believe we voice ths sentiment of many in our community, in the be lief that the State Senate should be called together for the purpose of re-electing a President of the body, who, in the absence of the Governor shall assume executive functions. It is absolutely ridiculous, in view of the constitutional provision, that the Governor of North Carolina, should be kept as it were, "in prison bound," within the limits of the State, not be ing allowed to go beyond its borders, no matter how pressing or urgent the necessity. There are numerous occasions, almost constantly taking place, on which the State of North Carolina, should be represented, in the person of her executive, and for him to be debarred, is almost ap proaching absurdity. Of course the assembling of t he Senate will cost a little something, but not much. It would seem that they might meet and select a President all in one day. But even if the cost were more than it is estimated, it is a matter that should be attended to. Let the Governor be a free man as well as anybody oIru. Complimentary It solutions. The resignation f our steemed townsman, Dr K. Burke Haywocd, as chairman of the Board of Chari ties, is much regretted, us his experi ence was much valued in that impor tant position His private duties, however, were such s to to render the resignation necessary. Upon his retirement the Board passed the fol lowing resolutions: Whereas, This Board is desirous of giving expression to its appreciation of the work of its retiring chairman, Dr. E. Burke BLywood; be it Resolved, That not only in the or ganization and putting in motion the operations of this Board, but also it the oversight and guidance of its af fairs, he has exhibited marked execu tive ab lity. Resolved, That in all rela' ions with the members of this Board his deal ings ha ve been satisfact ry to the full measure of every requirement. Resolved, That in the retirement of Dr. Haywood from the duties of this Board, the object for which it was created, and the State of North Car olina have suffered a great loss.
