".As some of our readers will be
anxious to know who Maj. Ginter
is," we wiU state that before the
war he was a silk, merchant in the
city of ichmbnd,and in the pur
suit of his business went occasion
ally to Europe, was in Paris the
night of the Revolution in 1848
when Louis Philipe was dethroned
and ' Fran ce declared v free. The
Major says things were stormy that
eight. : ' 1
: At the beginning of our ,lato un
rIAaantnesa Mai. Ginter went to
the field on the staff of Gen. Joe
K. Anderson and was assigned to
daty ' with , a . Georgia Brigade
which, when . Gen. "Anderson left
the field, fell to the' command of
CoL Thomas and - with' him the
Major continued np to near the
close of the wan At the battle, of
the second Manassas he was with
CoL Thomas as A. A. A. General
In the column which Gen. Jackson
took to the rear of Gen. Pope on
that occasion,- and contended for
two day with soch fearful odds
until Longstree.t . could - come , up.
It. was ia this -engagement that
Gen, Pender displayed such promp1
titude in repulsing the ; enemy
when he had punctured the Con
federate lines.' and almost attained
a victory.' And It was also on this
day that .Maj. Ginter wore oat the
lining of his cap in carrying, car
tridges from the boxes of dead and
wounded soldiers to reinforce' the
declining supply of the' men In the
line then so hotly engaged.
-' Jost before the eventful d.of
ADril. 1865. he was sent by Gen.
Lee on a tourof observation through
the Soathern depots of supplies and
had just returned, and was permit
ted to spend Sunday, in Richmond
with his sister and other relatives,
but while'at dinner his little ' niece
came rushing in exclaiming, K)h
uncle Lewis, they are burning
heaps of papers ia . the capital
square,7: whicn he at once recog
nized as meaning an evacuation of
the capital of the Confederacy.' He
started Immediately for ; the com
mand then falling back from Peters
burg and joined-it about Amelia

' : ' school cojuittexs.
The action of the Board of J2du
cation of Craven : in the appoint
ment of school committees is, in
our Judgment, rifht in law , and in
policy. ' The " convenience of the
two races Is made the condition of
the .establishment of. two separate
sets of districts by the board, which
is constituted under' the law the
supreme judge of this convenience.
What is there contrary to this con
venience in having only one set of
school districts!.. The colored peo
ple are now: getting two-thirds of
the money, they hare nearly, twice
as many schools la the connry as
the whites, their schools are visited
regularly - and sopervised by the
Saperintendeat,aad they are lo
cated as nearly possible central
to the colored, children.. As to the
appointment' or colored school com
mittees,' -thai also is at the dis-
crelioa of the Board of Education,
and is made dependent upon com
petence. Who will say that the
colored people of this county are
competent to ran their own schools!
Bdt very few intelligent people, we
imagine. Besides, there is another
side to this question. Eight-tenths
of this money which goes to colored
schools comes out of the pockets of
white men. The white children of
this county are suffering for the
want of it. Their parents are be
coming very restless under the in
justice of paying their money to
educate colored children, while
their own children are growing up
n ignorance for the want of it. And
it strikes as as very bad taste and
gross ingratitude for the colored
people to vote against our graded
schools, and then to demand the
spending of money which is paid
into the school fund by white tax
payers. IT is quite as honorable to carry
a hod as a halberd. There is as
mnch merit in making a horse shoe
as In making air oration. But the
difficulty ia to find people who will
act apon such a belief.
OCR STATE FAIR.
- On the fifteenth of this month
the North Carolina Sfate Fair opens
at Raleigh, and we learn that the
Agricultural Association of the
State, as well as the Agricultnral
Bureau, have used every effort to
make it a grand display of the
numerous articles of the growth
and manufacture of the State.
North Carolina seems to have at
tained some notoriety at the Bos
ton Exhibition, in minerals and
woods, but we fear that in the mat
ter of the products of labor she has
made but little impression; indeed
it would be more than remarkable
if she bail, as competition was in
the heart of a manufacturing sec
tion of the country, and where the
people have long been regarded as
the shrewdest and most expert
manipulators of things and material
on the globe. Where sand hams,
wooden nutmegs and rubber wheel
tires are said to have originated,
and shoe pegs sharpened at both
ends are sold for seed oats, where
green goggles are put over the eyes
oi horses to induce them to eat
shavings for green forage seem to
be too sharp n climate for our back
woods ideas of progress.
Vow we are far from saying these
things of New England as true, but
that they are an ingenious, active,
industrious people, much longer
accustomed to manufacturing than
we of the South, and no doubt excel
in all those things as it would seem
but reasonable they should, we are
quite certain is a fact.
Then we. must crowd all our
forces to make our own exhibition
at Raleigh as creditable as possible
The efforts at Boston were to attract
outside attention, to draw capital
energy and population to the State,
while that et Raleigh is, or should
be, to stimulate our own populace
to greater improvements in the
matter of agriculture and horticnl
ture manufacturing, stock raising
and all that adds to the wealth,
comfort and happiness of a people
whose advantages are superior to
their attainments. And while we
all wish it success, there is but one
way of inanrinar that object, and
that is for each one to look around
and see - what he can find tbat
would contribute a mite to that end
and at ouce arrange to have it on
exhibition at the Fair.
Premiums are profitable and
eratifyine to those who receive
them at the hands of the commit
tees, but those who go in the spirit
of trying to benefit others more
than .themselvas, have their pre
mioms in advance, and the golden
medal that always attaches to
duties well performed and can only
be awarded by . the severe but j ust
judgment of: their own conscience.
Then let every one use the means
indicated above to bw ell the nnm
ber of , exhibits at Raleigh and
make the Fair what it should be,
an' eminent success.
This being an agricultural sec
tion, we should look well to pro
ducts of the soil and have a good
representation in tbat line. Then
we have a fine list o water products
that. would be of interest to the up
country visitors And show up one
of the chiei sources of wealth in the
East, and while we cannot boas of
mnch manufacturing attainments,
yet we have several times made
more than an ordinary display of
needle work and such things as are
made by the ingenious and pains
taking ladies of this city and vicin
ity. Will they tfy again!
, MBS.. JACKSON'S CARD.
We think it to be deplored that
a portion or the southern rress
should have been so severe in
criticising the course of Mrs. Jack
son in making her recent visit to
Boston as to have given that
amiable lady a moment's discom
fort, to say nothing of 'pain and
mortification. Mrs. Jackson had
an anqnestionaDie right to visit
Boston, as has every other lady in
the bind. She also had the right
to select her travelling companions,
as every one else has, and in select
ing the Governor of North Carolina
and his estimable lady as such she
not only exercised a right but also
privilege that many would be
proud of, and if the good people of
Massachusetts saw fit to extend to
her the hospitality of the Common
wealth, we think she would have
been sadly in want of a proper re
gard for the amenities of refined
society had she declined to accept
them, and any criticism upon such
coarse as jshe pursued may Le
well spoken of by her as "not en
tirely jnst."
If the people of Massachusetts
feel that in showing distinguished
honors to her, they are but honor
ing her dead husband, we should
feel gratified that such was the
case. lnev nonor mm iur ins
valor his devotion to a cause
which, while they esteem it an un
worthy one, yet commend the
irtnes of his life and his soldiery
bearing even as an enemy to them
and in this respect set us a good
example.
As to her having leeu, or having
not wen the guests ot Governor
Butler we think is not of sufficient
mportance to have even evoked
the deuial which she has set forth
in the card, and we hope the North
ern press may be more forbearing
and not constrne that paragraph as
reflecting upon the Chief Magis
trate of a noble State at whose
hands she had received nothing but
distinguished attention.
General Bntler and General
Jackson bore arms in opposing
forces and we must not deny the
right, to each side, to honor their
chiefs whether living or dead; nor
allow our sensitive consciences to
cause us to lorget, that others have
consciences as well as ourselves.

Raleigh Visitor: One of the
boldest robberies of which we have
heard in a long time occurred near
this city yesterday. M. B. Mann,
who lives near Holly Springs, was
knocked down and robbed of his
pocketbook containing ten dollars
by a person answering the descrip
tion of a penitentiary convict. In
the early part of the day Mr. Mann
being in the city, had occasion to
walk out Ilillsboro road. While on
his way to the place he intended
going, lie mot on the road, in the
vicinity of the Fair Grounds, a man
who, he says, was attired in the
garb of a penitentiary convict.
Instantly alter passing each other
Mr. Mann received a blow from the
onvict which felled him to the
ground. After being thus knocked
down, the convict, evidently de
termining to take the life oi" his
ictem, stamped him severely about
the breast and left him for dead.
Mr. Mann after lying insensible for
some time recovered, and feeling in
his pocket, discovered lie had been
robbed of his pocketbook coutaiu-
ng ten dollars. He also received
an ugly cur in tne heau. ins
wounds, though painful, are not
serious, jso clew to the per
petrator of the foul, bold
deed has been obtained.
The cholera has become epidemic
among the chickens around, and
through the city and country. One
who has tried it recommends the
following as a sure remedy and pre

will save the poultry: With one

of laudanum aud a teaspoouful of

can for $150,000 damages for alleged

Philadelphia, Oct. 5. The in
bound train on the North Pennsyl
vania branch of the Philadelphia &
Reading Railroad ran into a street
car of the Union line at Susque-
haunah avenue and Amorgana
street, this morning. The car was
demolished and all of the passen
gers were more or less injured. Ten

Ou the 3rd iust., in Franklin,
Southampton couuty, the straight-
out Republicans held a political
meeting, and while a colored orator
named Prescott was- speaking he
was frequently interrupted by Sam
Gregory, also colored. Not satis
fied with the privilege of interrupt
ing the speaker Gregory became
incensed at the replies which the
latter made, and drawing a pistol,
shot him. Gregory then made his
escape to the forests, and from last
accounts was still at large.. His
father, Rev. Jos. Gregory, was ar
rested for the part he took in the
affair, but afterwards escaped and
is also a fugitive. The Gregorys
are leaders of the Mahonites in
Southampton.
Washington, Oct. 5. The New
Orleans National Bank, through its
counsel, to-day instituted a suit for
$100,000 damages in the District
Court against the Postmaster Gen
eral, on account of the latter s or
der of September 19th, forbidding
the delivery to the Bank of regis
tered letters, and the payment to it
of money orders by reason of its re
lations with the Lottery Company.
The Bank's bill of complaint sets
forth that the order contained de
famatory and libellous matter, and
was intended to change it (the
Bank) with fraudulent practices
and illegality about transacting its
banking business, and to have its
customers believe that it was pro
curing money by fraudulent pract
tices.
Paris, Oct. 6 The Figaro and
Gaulois both report that the Due
de Fernan Nunez, Spanish ambas
sador, yesterday handed to M
Ferry, prime minister, and M
Challeinel-Lacour, minister of for
eign affairs, a note setting forth
the grievances of Spain in connec
tion with the arrival of King Al
fonso in Paris, and demanding the
punishment of the authors of the
manifestations against his Majesty
and satisfaction for Spain in, pro
portion to the gravity of the out
rage. The note, these papers say,
was well received by M Ferry and
M Challemel-Lacour. M Ferry sub
sequently held a conference with
President Grevy.
San Francisco, Oct. 4. A letter
received to-day from George Treat,
the well-known pioneer of Cali
fornia, better known as the owner
of the famous race horse Thad.
Stevens, dated Mazatlan, says: "In
order to give some idea of the viol
ence of the yellow fever scourge in
this city, out of an opera company
numbering thirty-one members,
seventeen died including the
prima donna, Peralta in less than
three weeks, At the end of the fol
lowing two" weeks only five of the
original troupe were left living.
The medical men were all sick, and
two of them died. The victims
were buried hastily, and uncoffined,
three hours being the usual interval
between death and burial. For the
last week the deaths have not aver
aged more than twenty per day
The disease, however, is sweeping
the interior towns like wildfire.
The courts are all closed, the Judges
having ned."
