Guilford Battle Ground.
The Greensboro Record saye: "The
Maryland Historical Society some
time ao resolved to erect a monu
meat on the Guilford Battle Ground
Park, to commemorate tbe heroic
conduct of the Marylandera on the
sanguinary battle field of Quilford C.
H in 1781. At a meeting of the so
ciety, held in Baltimore last Monday
night, a report of the committee was
accepted. It recommends the erec
tion of a bon'der monument 6 feet in
length, 4 feet wide and 4 feet high, to
cost $850. Tbe money to be raised by
a valuable acqni ition to the me
morial stones already upon these
sacred grounds."
Tbe Suspended Bank.
Tbe following from the President of
the First National Bank of Wilming
ton which recently suspended will
prove of interest:
The causes which led to the suspen
sion of tbe First National Bank have
existed a long while The capital was
impaired by heavy losses several
years ago, as is generally understood
from the fact that no dividends have
been declared since 1887.
Tbe Directors hoped that by care
ful and conservative management tbe
earnings of the Bank would be suffi
cient in a few years to cover these old
losses; but slow collections, in conse
quence of the general stringency pre
vailing in our section this fall, have
compelled them to abandon this hope
and close tbe Bank to protect the de
positors, as well as the stockholders,
against further risk. Notwithstand
ing the shrinkage in value of many
securities on account of the general
depression in business, it is hoped
that the resources of the Bank under
prudent handling will yield more
than enough to pay the depositors in
full.
Respectfully,
B. F. Hall,
President.

We had a pleasant call to day from
Mr. Millard T.Toft, Assistant Manager
of the Wilmington, Delaware Eve
ning Journal.
We had the pleasure this morning
of a call from Mr. R. E. Capron, of
the Central County Courier, Ware
River News, and the Monson Mirror,
all in Massachusetts, and Mr. M. L
Schaffof the Peoples Register, ('ham
bersburg, Pa. These gent'emen are

extend them a most cordial welcome

Why They Do Not Marry.
Washington Star.
A pretty young woman, with a
ruddy bloom produced by the crisp
November air on her cheeks and an
earnestness in her manner that
showed she meant just what she
wrote, left the following at this office:
"Several papers inquire in alarm,
'flow ts it that there are so many nice
young girls in our cities unmarried
and likely to remain so?" Our an
swer is compromised in one word to
bacco. In old times, when you could
approach a young man within whis
pering distance without being naus
eated by his breath, he used when
his day's work was over to spend his
evenings with some good girl, or girls,
either around tbe family hearth, or in
pleasant walks, or at some innocent
place of amusement. The young man
of the present day takes his cigar and
puffs away bis vitality till he is as
stupid as an oyster, and then goes to
some saloon to queLoh the thirst crea
ted by smoking,, and sheds crocodile
tears every time bis stockings are out
at the toes that girls nowadays ar so
extravagant that a fellow can't afford
to get married. Wine young men out
of ten deliberately give up respecta
ble female society to indulge tbe soli
tary, enervating habit oi smoking
until their broken-do wu com titu t ion
clamor for careful nursing; then they
coolly ask some nice girl to exchange
her health strength, beauty and un
impaired intellect, for their sllow
ace, tainted blood and breath and
irritable temper and mental imbecili
ty. Women ratv well hate smoking
and siu 'kers. W hare known the
moat gentle and refined meu to grow
harsh in temper and uncleauly in
their personal habits under the
tbralldom of a tyranny which they
bad not love nor respect enough for
women to break through "
