C, JUNE 24, 1891. A BAD BISK. The Prince of Wales carrieB $800,000 insurance upon his life; an exchange suggests that bis reputation is not in sured for a cent and a company could not be found that would take the risk, that is, it is hardly insurable. WHY IS IT ? There are more people taken sick on Sunday, and r. great many more confined at home from sickness, on that day, than any other day in the week. The doctors claim to have more calls on Sunday, and it is claim ed that more children are born on that day than any other. If this later be true, the excess of sickness on that day cannot all be charged to disposi tion to take advantage of the day. Who can tell ns ? THIS IS THE HIND. The Nashua Times says: "The southwest part of Texas has an or ganization of capitalists who will spend $75,000 in an effort to raise tea in that portion of the State." This is the sort of enterprise that has made Texas what she is, and this Is just the kind we need in North Carolina and in Wake county. The enterprise that can see and appreci ate the personal advantage there is in public prosperity. IN TOLERABLE EGOTISM. In a recent speech to a regiment of young recruits, the young German Emperor said : M I warn you, who are mostly young countrymen, against the social dem ocrats. Always remember the oath you have taken binding you to me. The Bible says the girl who marries leaves father and mother and follows her husband. I say to you, having taken the oath of a soldier, follow me Implicitly, shooting even father or brother without question, or hesita tion, when ordered." Here in free America we can not understand how Germany or any oth er people can possibly tolerate such brazen egotism. We frequently hear people talk, when there is nothing in what they say that strikes the atten tion so forcibly and disgustingly as the " big I," but thiB speech takes the cake. purpose, and noi&hsrription of utock in the Exposition Association by the county could be made without the consent of the he rl Inure, as lias been frequently decided; but this of course i not contemplated, lu MB sideriug the matter, however, I think the commissioners should act in con junction with a majority of the jus tices of the peace of the county; and it seems to me that no valid ohjec tion could be interposed to restrain them from giving the enterprise such reasonable and substantial encour agement as the financial condition of the county would in their judgment warrant. Indeed such ation and the aid thus given, would be in har mony with the spirit of the Constitu tion, which requires the legislature to establish and maiutain a Depart" ment of Agriculture; and also with the spirit of The Code, which directs an annual appropriation to be made to the State and to county agricul tural societies (sees. 2218-2222), and empowers the "county commissioner.! to appoint fairs in their respective counties," for the encouragement of industry and to regulate the same by a system of by-laws. Sees. 2790, 2701." Gospel Work. Correspondence of the Visitor. Rev. J. A. Cuninggiin, D. I) , Pre siding Elder of Raleigh district, has been spending a few days in Raleigh and with his good hhlper, "Aunt Lucy," much gospel work has been done by them in visiting, in prayer meetings and in Love Feasts. At 11 o'clock a. in. last Sunday his sermon, on early religious training and conversion of children, and that all must be converted and become as little children, was a most practical, heart searching and soul stirring discourse. The message was of Cod and will be to His glory in the bless ing it will prove to those who so gladly heard and received it. At the 3d Quarterly Conference held on Monday night, 22d of June, there was a good report by the pastor Dr. J. H. Cordon, in a large increase of church membership during the quarter, and the outlook is for very much more soul saving work to be done among the young and old of our city. C. When a young man, the late Charles Rradlaugh was a strong be liever in Christianity, and a member of a Bible class in the parish Sunday school. While thus studying the Bible, he came across one or two ap parent contradictious, ""and went to the rector for light. But the rector was a stern man of the old school and, instead of helping the young man out of his difficulty, rebuked him severely for daring to find any difficulty in God's book, and advised him to believe him in everything he read in it without asking any ques tions. The advice was well meant. but it was the worst that could have been given in this particular case. The young man at once quit studying the Bible or believing in it, and the rest of his career is known to the world. Fourth of July Excursion Kate.

AM IMPORTANT OPINION. In view of the proposition for the several counties of the State to con tribute to the Inter-State Exposition, we give the following extract from a letter written in 1884 by Attorney General Kenan which seems to set the matter at rest. "The movement to have an ex hibit of the resources of the State is one which the people of every county in the State are in some measure in terested. It concerns the public, and was inaugurated with a view to secure favorable results to the State at large. I, therefore, think the case is within the power of the county authorities, and that they may exercise the power by appropriating money to enable the county to make a proper exhibit of its resources at the ensuing Exposition if they shall determine that the same is necessary or the good of the county and to the interests of its inhabitants. No special tax could be levied for the Many years ago, a French gentle man was invited to 5 o'clock tea at Bath, where the guests sat around the room in a stiff circle, holding their teacups in their left hands and eating hot buttered waffles and chipp ed smoked venison with the fingers of their right, hand from plates in their laps. Waiters handed about the tea and coffee,and the French gentleman, unaware that the position of the teaspoon in the empty cup returned to the waiter indicated whether or not it was to be replenished, politely arana louneen cups ot tea, and then, despair, pocketed the cup and in saucer until the general rising of the company enabled him to rid himself of them.
