It will be well if we new Tear to hone, to dedicate the countrv and to God. Tbe past cannot ,be changed. Whaterer of good is in it we can embalm in sacred memories, and eren the evil we have done may be aa beacon lights to protect as from hidden rocks and treacherous whirlpools. Tbe smile of heaven seems to rest oa sea and land, and tbe stars shine on the evil and the good. Individual effort, wisely directed, is always blessed, and we trust that every one of oar readers w ill realize is the year to come the reward of their labors and the fruition of their hopes. North Carolina heaven b:eaa her! has entered upon a career of enlightened progress and solid prosperity, and her sons and daughters have only to be true to her in order to win success in the various avocations in which they are employed, lier mines are rich iu mineral wealth, her lands bring forth abandantly, and tbe hand of industry is ready to draw from mountain fastness and fertile plain treasures to adorn tbe State and make glad her people. We have no fears for tbe material development of North Carolina; our only concern is for the ever increasing intellectual and moral elevation of her sons and daughters. Reform is the order of the day, and if reformation is needed in this grand old commonwealth, let us address ourselves to its sacred obligations with the resolution of men who dare to tread the path of duty wherever it may lead. Our public school sj item mnst be per fected. A higher standard of scholarship mnst be raised. Every child has a right to demand a prac tical business education. Little children cannot make this demand for themselves, but enlightened public sentiment speaks for them ; the spirit of philanthropy pleads for them? and tbe religion of Jesus intercedes far them. The Legisla ture will be composed of repre sentative men who, we are assnre3, will give this subject the considers tion it demands. We will not take our eyes from North Carolina, bat we look beyond her borders to see that the watch flrea of liberty are burning in all tbe States, lie who can look with oat concern apon the condition of public affairs in the United States is either indifferent to the voice of patriotism, or he is sustained by a sublime laith that enables him to look beyond the clouds and see our Father's hand guiding the storm and directing the tempest. lie who tempers tbe winds to tbe shorn lambs will certainly abetter His children, and we trust that, in Bis own good time, Lie will bring order oat of confusion and say to the aagTy waves "Peace, be still." He who hope-for good must be ' . . willing to won ior iu ixuuipuou ment of good. Individual effort is not to be disregarded nor lightly eteemed ; bat in State and NsUiooal affaira orgaD nation is neoesuarj to grand achievements. There is an ortaaixatlonjin North Otroiiaa, and throughout the Union, which, with the blessing of 1 God, .can bring delirerance to the country. ; That organization is the1 Democratic party. Let us see to it that it is preserved in its purity. Fraud, corruption, the lost of pow er and the sin of inordinate am bition have no" place, in a pare Democrary. Let us keep before as the "great lights that illumine our history, and direct our course by the chart of numan liberty, the American Constitution. K cape from Tf rrlble UlMltlr. AsiiKVii.i.K, N, ('. Dec. L7. The passengers on the regular train from Murphy, due here at 4:0'J P. M., had a narrow escape from a terrible disaster yesterday after noon eighteen miles west of Ashe ville. There were some thirty aboard men, women, and child ren. The train composed of a baggBge, a mail car, one passen ger coach, aud two freight cars, was coming down a steep grade and had just cleared a higbt trestle. The track was hardly wider than the cross-ties. On one side was the rock wall of the mountain, on the other a steep prcipice, meas uring Beventy tive or one hundred feet ;o its base. Suddenly the violent jostling and thumping of the train indicated it was off the track. A panic soon ensued and a wild break was made t for the doors. i Fortunately before man- had succeeded in leaving the car the train was brought to a sudden halt , by the fore-track of a freight car : dropping into a water way some j eighteen inches deep. The train 1 had run on the ties several hund- red yaraa. me occupauus oi iu 8mA'1 bouaee at the toot of the pre- oi..ir.i vara inmlvdil in tliA immi nent danger.

What must she look like and what is her history t She is 110 years old, built in Baltimore in 17S0. Her name is the Vigilant. 3be has since then been a coaster, i rafAfnl wimmnn carrier of mer. Thomas and Santa Cruz, in the West India Islands. Her owner, Mr. ;S. Penthany, of Santa Cruz, was in liangor and displayed a picture ot the old craft which was taken as tbe vessel was rounding a coral reef under full sail. The picture is a good one and the lines of the craft are well brought out. "How much of the original craft is there now!'' asked the reporter. "The keelson and main tributors of the hall which are laid in the l conitruction of her are still there," said Mr. 1'enthany, "and they arc good for many years to come." What a story would the history of this old craft make! Bangor News. EfTtcta of ihe TmrtT Law, Democrats cannot but feel grim satisfaction over tbe fact that prominent Republican business men as well as prominent Repub lican politicians are suffering because of the passage of Mo Kinley's bill. One of them is Mr Edward 11. Ammidown, ex-presi-dent of the American Protective Tariff League, a protectionist of tbe "rank'' sort. lie was the prin cipal stockholder in tbe Kitten house Manufacturing iCo., which did a big business before tbe lie Kinley bill put a heavier tax on raw wool. As soon as the new tariff act was signed by tha Presi dent the prices of woolen goods went np. Sales of woolens there fore fell off. The Rittenhouse company failed and the rich Mr. Ammidown, its prinoipal stock holder, Is not so rich as he was by some thousands. Perhaps if Mr. Jay Gould were a manufacturer of woolens he would not advise the poor people to buy one coat a year instead of two iu order to make both ends meet under the burden ot higher taxation. If they don't follow Jay's advice, however, they wiJl, according to tbe New York Tribuene Rep. pay 100,000,000 more next year for clothes than they paid last which is pretty nearly 10 per family on an average. This tax will fall lightest on plantation pickininiea and heaviest on Northern and Northwesteren farmers. SOUTH CAROLI A. Death of Hon. vr. D, Slmpion, Chief JuKlo of the Suprcni Court.

Corn is f-elling at 1.1 cents per bushel, eggs 1G cents per dozen, fodder GO cents, fresh pork t cent. per pound. We had the pleasure of attend ing the Methodist Episcopal Snn- day school at Trenton on Sunday last. We were truly glad to see so much interest manifested in this good woik by both pupils and teachers. Married at the home of the bride's mother, December 25th, li!0, Mrs. A. F.

Rhode, of the Trenton High School, with the pupils, gave his patrons the enjoy ment of an entertainment on Mon day the lil'd. which was met by the court house being filled to its fullest capacity. The entertain ment was received with rapturous applause and was highly appre ciated by all of our citizens. The pieces rendered showed that the pupils had had c.ireful training aud convinced every odo that Mr. and Mrs. Rhodes were doing all they could to advance the pupiN under their charge. We learn that the next session of this school will open again on the 7th of January with a 1 irge accession of new pnpus. .o need ot sending your children off, citizens of Jones couu ty, yon have a school right at home worthy of patronage.

Mies Pollie Jacksou was elected the prettiest lady. Mr. S. P. Forrest, of Maple ; Cypress, and Miss Emma Coward, i of Coxville, were married on the ! 24th, at the residence of the bride's ; father, Mr. John Coward, and after the marriage we drove to Mr. A. I Lancaster's, where we found a large i assembly of the neighbors and a 1 table filled with the delicacies of a ' farmer's kitchen. It was a grand occasion and one that will not soon be forgotten. There was a grand horso tourna ment here on the 2G:h. It rained all day, bnt there was a large crowd out. There were ten knights, and how noble they looked as they marched up in front of the judges to hear the "verdict'' as they called it. Mr. El. Edwards, knight of "Edwards' Mill," crowned tbe Queen, Miss Ida Heath; Mr. J. F. Bergerin, "Washington," crowned first Maid of Llonor, Miss Alice Warren ; Mr. C. J. Heath, "Ivan hoe," crowned second Maid of Honor, Miss Belle Edwards, and Mr. S. E Ewell, "Haven't Given it" a Thought," crowned third Maid of Honor, Miss Annie Walters. Svransboro Items. Christmas is past and our old town made the trip without an accident. One accident is reported at Jack sonville. Lather Taylor is said to have entered the house of Mr. Sewell with four cents worth of powder in a paper sack and a lighted cigar which he al lowed to come in contact. Result, Mrs. Sewell, Miss Mary Creear and Miss Agnes Parkins set on fire and badly burned, but not fatally, however. Luther and the furni ture in the house and the wood on the fire all changed places, bat he escaped with slight damage. Mr. Ebanks, at Mr. D. Aman's, had his hand badly lacerated bv holding on too long to a sky rocket. Miss Mary Hill, daughter of Capt. Ed. Hill, and a good looking one, was married Christmas eve to Mr. James Parkins, of Stella. All are pleased at the match, except one or two of her other beaux. The ladies, God bless them, as usual had a nice Christmas tree loaded down with Dresents lor the little ones. Most of the Sunday school girls and boys had appro priate little speeches, which they repeated in excellent Btyle, and the occasion was decidedly enjoy able. Festivals and a Masonic celebra tion supplemented our holidays, Mr. George Morton, of Wilming ton, being the orator. His address was highly complimented. In the double tendency which all things exhibit towards the good or the evil let us resolve in the be ginning of another year to be found combating the evil, and this re quires constant, unceasing watch fulness.
