from Sidney college, at Hampden, Va.,
in 1843, was admitted to tlie bar, but en
tered .journalism, serving successivelyon
The Washington Union, The Richmond
Enquirer and The South, which latter
paper he established at Richmond. He
fought several duels during his journal
istic career, was elected to congress in
J859 to fill a vacancy, was re-elected in
I860, but did not take his seat. His
sympathies were with the south, and he
went to Charleston to witness the firing
on Sumter. He was elected to the Con
federate congress, but soon after entered
the Confederate army as a colonel and
rose to be a brigadier general. He re
signed in 13(53, was captured in 1864,
and was confined in Fort Lafayette. He
settled in New York in 18G5, where he
has since practiced law.
The steam spinning jinny has reached
Oxford and the boys are happy.

L. Wilson, of Warrenton ; Mrs. Thomas
White and daughter, of Louisburg, all of
whom have been visiting relatives in Ox
ford this week have returned to their

We predict that one of the coming
big things of Granville county will be
the copper mines at Raker City. Large
quantities of ore are now Deing shipped
to the North, and the capacity of the
mines are being increased.
Mr. B. T. Winston, as administrator,
sold quite a number of notes and accounts
in front of the court house on Monday.
The well known Leroy Elliott was on
hand and tried to rival Eugene Crews as
auctioneer.
We learn from Mr. M. L. Coley, who
was in Oxford on Monday, that Greens
will ere long become one of the impor
tant stations on the O. fc C. R. R. as quite
a number of substantial improvements
are to be made this summer.
We were pleased to meet in our of
fice on Monday Hon. W. T. Adams, Messrs.
J. C. Fleming, W. II. Ragsdale, L. 8 El

tobacconists show that his efforts have
been highly appreciated in the. field which
he occupies.
Unless we all harmonize and pull to
gether like Durham, Winston and Reids

and push Oxford far above the mud and
make her the great tobacco center of the
State.

Our citizens were much excited Wed
nesday of last week at 12 o'clock by the
ravages ot a mad dog. The dog ran into
the yard of Mr. M. P. Travis just below
the mineral springs and attacked the little
son Charley, biting him four times in
a severe manner. The bpy was bitten
three times in the face and once in the
arm. The dog then ran towards the de
pot, but made a circuit round in the Dex
ter road where he met Mr. C. T. Wyche
biting him on the leg. Dr. C. D. Wyche
cauterized the wounds and Mrs. Travis
with her little son and Mr. Wyche took
the three o'clock train for Durham. On
their arrival there they went to Mrs.
Walker who had a mad stone which was
applied and readily adhered to the wounds
Mrs. Travis and her little son returned
Friday and Mr. Wyche Saturday and they
both appear to be all right. Slace this
event 15 or 20 dogs which were known to
have been bitten have been killed.

Major N. A. Gregory and W. A. Davis,
the celebrated tobacco warehouse firm

this week with a view, we suppose, of

Our old friendfc Capt. F-. F. Gill, an

with his genial sociability, and to see
him still retaining to a remarkable de

The justly celebrated and widely

A Colored Woman Shot.
On Sunday morning last the report
was flying that a colored woman had been
shot in one of the rooms in the Minor
Block. In company with Drs. James
Paris, R. J. Daniel and Sidney Hunt we
visited the room and found Mandy Green,
colored, lying on the bed with a hie hole
In her face just below the eye. Messrs.
J. B. Williams, S. D. Booth and L. C.
Taylor were busily engaged in trying to
find the ball, but did not succeed as it had
gone through the cheek bone and lodged
in the middle portion of the head. Drs.
Daniel, Paris and Hunt were inexperi
enced, and did not assist the skilful gen
tlemen in trying to relieve the wounded
woman. The cause of the accident was
the careless handling of a pistol in the
hands of Turner Durhanr, colored, who
drives the wagon of Capt." C. P. Powell.
Henry Durham, brother of Turner, was
also in the room. It seems that Turner
Durham had gotten his pistol out for the
purpose of cleaning it, and in doing so it
accidentally went off. the ball striking
Mandy Daniel w ho had but a short time
before come up to bring Turne his
clothes.
Mayor Smith promptly had Turner
Durham arrested and after full investiga
tion, both the wounded woman and Henry
Durham testifying that the pistol was ac
cidentally discharged, he was at once re
leased. At last accounts Mandy was get
ting on very nicely, but it is feared that
she is fatally wounded.
Dyspepsia
Makes the lives of many people miserable,
and often leads to self-destruction. We know
of no remedy for dyspepsia more successful
than Hood's Sarsaparilla. It acts gently, yet
surely and efficiently, tones the stomach and
other organs, removes the faint feeling,
creates a good appetite, cures headache, and
refreshes the burdened mind. Give Hood's
Sarsaparilla a fair trial. It will do you good.

BEN TERRELL IN OXFORD.
A GALA DAY FOR THE FARMERS OF
GRANVILLE.
Ben Terrell, the Great Alliance Lec
turer Tell Some Plain Truths His
Speech Gave Mueli Food for Thought
A Large Number Present.
The Farmers of Granville turned out
in large numbers Wednesday to hear th
great Alliance apostle lien Terrell ex
pound the great principles of that giant
order that Is increasing at a rate of 1,000
per day. 1 1 is speech was a strong, manly
and straight forward effort. Every one
who heard him must be convinced of the
tremendous movement that is going on
all along the agricultural line. He stated
facts that should be known to every citl
zen His honest, sincere and earnest man
ner of urging his points was just such a
talk as suited the farmers.
The Alliauce were fortunate in secur
ing the services of one so well equipped
for the mission he has in hand. And
while all of us may not coincide fully in
every position lie took, still his position
in th-i main, if not altogether is correct
We are gratified that we had an opportu
nity of listening to his words of wisdom
as he showed the importance ot the move
ments of the Alliance and the rich fruit
age for the good of the country that will
follow, as night follows the day, if Alii
ance principles should be triumphant.
The seed he is sowing we trust will bring
forth a bountiful harvest to the agricultu
ral people of th is country, whose wrongs
inflicted by autocratic legislation cr
aloud from the ground for relief. Onlj
in union will the ' farmers find that they
have strength. We plead for unity of aim
and purpose among the Alliance people.
The gigantic work they have on hand
does not admit of division and strife
among the brethren of this noble band.
Everybody who hears him cannot fail
to see that Hon. Ben Terrell is a sincere
man. He is conscious of the rectitute of
his principles and relies upon no mere
claptrap to win the applause of his hear
ers. He takes a magnanimous and Ingen
uous position In regard to merchants, law
yer, etc., not wishing to wage a warfare
on any branch of trade or profession. His
speech will not only help the farmers, but
such speeches invigorate and give strength
to our Republican form of government.
He should be greeted everywhere with
large audiences.
We forbear any further remarks of our
own substituting the following report of
the distinguished Texas Alliance man:
Hen. A. II. A. Williams introduced the
speaker to the audience assembled at the
Opera House in his usual forcible and
pleasing style, Among other things he
said there are some events which the peo
pie should be thankful for, among which
was the adjournment of the 51st Congress
as it had enforced slavery upon the agri
cutural people.
Alliancemen and others My address to
you today will be to the pnblic, citizens,
alliancemen, as well as all others. Dis
abuse your minds of prejudice; hear us
for our cause. 1 will state to you that my
coming into North Carolina has been
deemed a necessity by your Executive
Committee. Misunderstandings arose,
and a misunderstanding of its objects
maintains among nearly all classes. Ther
are causes for this misapprehension or
misunderstanding of its organization,
which I will be compelled to state. Thej
could not have been avoided. I am not
here to censure, but to state facts, wheth
er appreciated or not. They may touch
some and they may feel that it is leveled
at them, but such is not the case, but they
are in defence of the organization which
I represent. We don't deny the right ol
any class to do what they think to ad
vance their best interests. We farmers
have organized an Alliance, claiming the
right to use the intelligence our Creator
has given us. 4 We cannot object to others
doing this; they must provide for their
household, save their wives and children
from starvation, and so must we. The
man who will not, says the good book, is
worse than an infidel, and I agree with
it.
The question comes up, as to what the
Alliance, under the circumstances, should
do. Looking from this point what should
we do? Should we modify our demands
to suit their obj ects, or seek for the truth
whether they object to the parties or not?
Upon this point it seems to me every
true-man, every farmer who has the least
particle of principle will stand with me
when I say the Alliance will never de
sert Its principles, will strike error
wherever found and seek and defend
truth always. Taking that position for
the Alliance we must expect opposition,
but we are not afraid of it. Having truth
on our side, opposition only brings it out
clearer and discussion of facts impresses
them upon the people. Then I am not
objecting to opposition to the Farmers'
Alliance. 1 expect it. To gain our aims we
must meet it. Those eujoying class privi
leges will do all in their power to pre
vent our aims. Producers must unite.
We hold in our Alliance motto that,
"In things essential unity; In all things
charity." . We cannot accomplish any
thing unless we become a unit. Allow
