A Good Suggestion.
With his characteristic energy and
disposition to please the public, our
friend, Capt. B. P. Williamson, pro -poses
to have a special show of his
splendid stock at his Fairview farm,
near the city, at such time as may. be
decided upon. Our contemporary,
the State Chronicle suggests May 17,
for the occasion, as many delegates
to the State Convention will be in
the city. The idea is an admirable
one. and we hope it may be carried
out.

of last evening had a somewhat un
favorable effect upon the occasion,

ble turn out. Metropolitan Hall was

of Hon. B. H. Bunn upon the life and
services of Gen. Wm. McTtae, of Wil
mington, N. 0. After th exercises
in the Hall the procession moved to
the cemetery in the order laid down
in the programme. It was a most in
teresting occasion throughout .

(lone Wrong.
W briefly mentioned in our issue

Richmond & Danville Railroad, on
the Oxford and ClarksviHe road, had
decamped with funds belonging to

money whs lost and Wilkins, fled
