It is-l that in towns aui cities of America N you will call the roll of the most successful men in life--men who have acquireniost success in busines or renown in professional life you will in a large majority pf instances find that they were brought HP under the health ful influence of life inhe country. Strange as this may appear it is an in disputable fact. The matfage of Mr. John H. Bullock, of Oxford, Miss Sal lie M. Bragg, who is truly one of Gran ville's most winsome ladies, just the ami able and lovely woman blending the qual ities of mind and heart to cheer the fife of our worthy friend John Bullock with' joy and happiness. He is one of the rising tobacconist, a successful warehouseman, a self-made man, who each succeeding year has ad ded to his fortune and business reputa tion. Those who know him appreciate very highly his estimable qualities, his kind and obliging disposition and his un bending integrity. The ceremony which blended these two hearts together as one took place Wednesday afternoon, the 24th, at 3 o'clock, in the Methodist church at Stems, in the presence of a large num ber of friends from both town and county, Rev.

Marriage of Two of Northern Gran ville's Popular You us People. For some weeks past the subject of this notice has been the one event of para mount interest to all others transpiring or to transpire in this neighborhood. A mar riage at any time or place or under almost any circumstances is of peculiar interest to most of us. When you add to this fact the prestige, popularity and high social standing, not only of the contracting par ties but of their entire families, incident to the one now to be noted there is no wonder that the community stands on tip toes in anticipation of its consumation. Few who were fortunate enough to be present at Grassy Creek Baptist Church, on Wednesday afternoon, December 17th, will ever forget the beautiful marriage solemnized there at that time. The church unadorned is a pretty one, but after hav ing been touched in decoration by the skillful hands of a few lady friends of the parties it was scarcely recognizable by its most frequent visitors. From corner to to centre, from centre to corner, from centre to side, from side to centre, and around and above the Pulpit hung beauti ful evergreen decorations, festooned with grace and symmetry. The terminus of the aisle was spanned by a magnificent arch trimmed with lovely cedar, hand somely and profusely decorated with fern leaves. From the centre of this hung the 'Marriage Bell" whose artistic "arrange ment was brightened by its lily white clapper as it chimed forth the marriage notes of love and happiness. Directly in front of this stood a snow white pyramid adorned with evergreens, rare flowers and lovely vases of every hue that seemed tr vie in loveliness with the pure crystalline flakes of the beautiful snow which were "floating and waltzing'J to their own sweet music without. Above and on each side of the pulpit were the letters "P & W. Taken all together, and especially for harmonious adaptation to produce a de sired effect your correspondent has seen these decorations equalled but seldom surpassed. It was fitting that this appropriate place should be thus appropriately adorned for the marriage of Mr. John L. Pittard and Miss Sallie A. Winston. The bride is the daughter of B. T. Winston, Esq., of this place, who is known not only in this" com munity but throughout the county as a man of sterling worth, high social stand ing and unbounded hospitality. Miss Sallie has been for the past two years the most popular, beautiful, highly accomplished and cultured lady of this portion of the county. The groom is the son of Mr. G. W. Pittard, a man as well and favorably known as any one man in this community No place has among its young men a man of more intrinsic worth than John L. Pit tard. He Is honest, upright, popular, in. dustrious and pious. The bridal party arrived at the church at 3 o'clock and entered in the following order to the music of tli wedding ninrc rendered by Miss Occie Wilkerson: Mr. Thomas S.Ragsdale and Miss Lilla Bowling; Mr. A P. Harris and Miss Lizz Overby; Mr. Robt Davis and Miss Elt Pittard; Mr. Charlie Ward and Miss Flory Clement; Mr. James W.Winston andMi.44 Sallie Pittard. Following tlie-e came thf bride and groom handsomely attired. The ceremony was performed by Dr. R H. Marsh, of Oxford, in an impressive, manner in the presence of a large numbed of friends. 1 Messrs. J. K. Clement and W. H. Rags dale acted as ushers. Immediately after the ceremony the bridal party with a few invited friends re turned to the residence of B.T. Winston, Esq., the father of the bride. After the usual congratulations and some sly glance? between those pulling for the same bless ed haven supper was announced. Up to this tiine the sense of the beauti ful had been gratified, and now we were thinking onlv of the "inner man." but if Impossible the loveliest scene of all presen ted itself. The table was a "thing of beauty" and could we have remained there wvould have been a "joy forever." Everything that appetite could desire!-or mind suggest was furnished in abundance and in the best style. Those of us vho knew Mrs. Winson had no meager Ex pectations, but none of were prepared to expect and enjoy what she had prepared. Mrs. Winston has one daughter left, aid if she intends to duplicate that' supr?r when she embarks on this blissful sya your correspondent desires to give noti;e of his presence unless fortune fails to pre sent the opportunity. A glimpse at the parloc after supjler impressed one with the fact that the cfu ple just married were not the only oife.s that believed that marriage is not a fail ure. We venture the assertion thatilbe future will show that some, of that lo;fly party will soon do likewise. The bfi'de looked unusually well and was the corre of attraction and the groom did not fail to present his most, manly appear arce. The 'presenfs""we?Fr-njinier(us, valuable, useful and handsome.

In conclusion we but voice the senti ment of the entire community, and a lajjge circle of friends in this State, Virg:na and Texas, when we express the wish iliat the life of the wedded couple may btl iut a continuation of the joys and pleasures that cluster around and crowded them selves into Iheir lives and the livejs of their friends during this joyous occasion. With this no cloud can darken their pith their future will be sunshine, their hrfme happiness and their lives a success. f ' w. Tr . i. Adoniram, N C, Dec IS, lSflf). Ir. S. II. Cminaily. ?

" -Vow the Only Question Open Is: Jio the People Want to Instruet Senator Vanee to Yote for the Sub TrenHury Bill?-If No, They Can do it. The last Progressive Farmer contained the following corre.spoi:t!cnca between Mr. Ellas Carr, President of the State Farmers' Alliance and Senator Vance. It will be of great interest to every citizen 75f the State, for it absolutely and un Changeably settles the Senatorial ques tion in North Carolina. Pkeside.ntt Catch's Letter. November 20, 1800. Hon. Z. B. Vance, Black Mountain, Bun combe Co.: Dear Sir.: After carefully consider ing the political situation in our State. I deem it wise to write you and ask the following question: "If the Legislature instructs you to advocate and vote for the Sub-Treasury plan of financial reform, will you carry out said instructions in good faith ?" I hope that you will under stand I do not reflect in the slighest de gree on your devotion to the people of North Carolina, but there are precedents where United States Senators have carried out instructions, and also precedents where they have disregarded them. I trust that you will give me an answer at your earliest convenience. Very respectfully, Elias Carr, Pres't N. C. F. S. A senator vance's replt. United States Senate, Washington, D. C, Dec. 0, 1890. Elias Carr, President of N. C. Farmers' Alliance, Old Sparta, N. C: Deaii Sir: in answer to your official comrnunicition of the 20th ult., which did not reach me until the 1st inst., I have to say that I recognize the old Democratic doctrine of the light of he people to in, struct their represesatives to the fullest extent tdSih itever been carried h Carolina. I hold that the will of the people, clearly and unequivocally expressed, must be obeyed unless compli ance would involve the representative in a moral wrong, in which case It would be his dntr to resign and give place to a repre sentative who would obey. Good faith In the observance of instructions and public pledges is absolutely essentiakto a gov ernment based on the popular will. Very respectfully yours, Z. B. Vance. what the progressive farmer says. By reference to the correspondence be tween President Carr and Senator Vance, printed in another column, it will be seen that the Senator agrees to obey the In structions of the General Assembly, if it shall "unequivocally" direct him to vote for the Sub-Treasury "plan" of financial reform. It is now the duty of the peo ple of North Carolina to meet in their several townships and indicate to their representatives in the Oeneiv.l Assembly their will, as to whether Senator Vance shall be instructed to support the Sub Treasury "plan" or not. In these meet ings there should be the fullest and freest discussion of the merits and de merits of the Sub Treasury "plan," with a view to ascertaining its practicability, as scheme of reform. It has been said, more than once, that the majority of the farmers in North Carolina were opposed to the Sub Treasury bill. If this opposi tion exists, now is the time for it to mani fest itself. The Alliancemen of North Carolina are impregnable in their demands for reform. But they are not wedded to any special scheme of bringing.it Bbout. If a better scheme of reform can be de vised than the one embodied in the Sub Treasury "plan," the Progressive Farmer, for one, is in favorof the better scheme. This i3 our position now ; and this has been our position all the while. Any other position, as it seems to us, would be irrational. This agreement of Senatoj Vances' to obey the instructions of the General As sembly in the matter of supporting the Sub-Treasury "plan", should, and, we doubt not, will, allay all opposition to his re election to the Senate, which arose from his expressed opposition to the scheme of reform, to which the Alliances are committed. The Alliances have it in their power to secure for their reforms the support of Vance by issuing instruc tions to him through the Legislature; and if they neglect to secure these instructions that will not be the fault of Senator Vance. The Progressive Farmer is delighted to know that a way to the conpoting of the differences between Vance and the Alli ancemen of North Carolina has been found; and it sees a splendid vista, lined with opportunity to make a careful and wUe embodiment of Alliance principles I in the plans of reform which will be brought before the next Congress. We see the way clear to the accomplishment of all that this paper has ever Contended for ; and we are content.
