Formtij) months Mr. Wilson ha-, .rt-u prominently before the country because of bis being Chair man of ihe Wys and Means Com mittee ol the HoaHe and theacored ite;i an' hor ot the VVilson bill. Al wiiys an objec: of interest to bis country mm, he in especially so now that he is seriously ill in a far away Mexican c ty. jt is sad indeed to see a great man stricken down in the midst of a high aad honorable career, and oar sorrow is intensified with the reflection that he is a martyr in his country's cause. Every North Carolinian indeed we may say every American who is famnliar with the history of the timet, knot's that our own beloved Vance log', his health through over exenionni hehalfofhis people. It is with profound gratitude, to the giver of all good, that we have leared that oar great Seoator is bet ter and is expected to be at his post at no dUtant day. This is a digress ion. We commenced to write of ; Wilson and the allusion to Vance is incidental. We often hear the remark that Character is what a man is: Repu tati n is what he is suppoesd to be. In both character and reputation Mr. Wilson has reaohed an eleva tion seldom attained He is known to the comitjy ar large as a states man, in the narrower circle of honie tnd peis-mal acq i ai n t ancesb ip he is hived ss1 a dev. iled husband, a f.-nd I i h-T. a .-o 10I ir, a gemle m-411 Mid a cht isn in .

NEWS IN BRIEF. The Reidsville Review says: Ransom has on hand 900 bales of last year's cotton The senior Senator is something of a hay seed, after all. Mr. J. . Jones had a car load of St. Louis horses and mules to arrive dast night. He means to see that farmers have all the teams they need to work with and for pleasure too. The grand jnry returned a true bill for murder in the first degree against Dr. L. Snapp, who shot and killed James Lamar in Kernesville, last December. The de lendant plead not guilty. The schooner loaded with dynamite that is adrift without a orew la the AtUn. tic ocean is prepared to shock anything taat it comes in contact w itb. Dr. Geo. Slover will aoon build him self a reaidence, a neat cottage ou Union street adjoining the old homestead. The building once used by Dr. Slover as an office, now occupying a portion of the lot will be torn down. Rev. R. G. Pearson's revival services at Davidson resulted in a total of 150 pro fessions of religion. The piritaal con dition of the community was greatly strengthened. The News-Observer-Chronicle states that Dr. W. S. Black has accepted the appointment as presiding elder of the Warrenton District ot North Carolina aod will at once tender Irs resignation as Supeiintendent of the Oxford Orphan Asylum. I Dirty-one cnicsens. we learn were hatched out by the small incubator at the Fair grourds while the Fair was in pro gress. It was shown by Mr. J. L. Hahn. We hope next year that a good dzed one will be shown rcguUrly at work in a conspicious place. The negro, Chas. Mann, recently con victed in Pamlico Superior court of an attempt at rape was taken up yesterday by Deputy Sheriff Campen to the peni tentiary. An appeal was taken in the case, but the appeal was afterwards waived. From the Washington Gazette we learn that a negro has been placed in Washington jail for killing another in the Roper Swamps. The negroes were ' fooling" and Flynn snapped a pistol, supposed to be unloaded, at the victim, and as is neaily always the case it was loaded and the bullet took effect in the other darkey's stomach and he died in a tew hours. The Salisbury Herald says there is a freak of nature near Big Creek, Stokjs county. It is"a white negro girl who is about six years old and in go id health. She was born to p-irents as black as the "ace ef spades," so to speak. While the child is as white as any Caucasian, as far as the cuticle is concerned, she has all the regular features of a full blooded African, flat nose, thick lips and kinky hair. The lat.er is as white as wool. The Raleigh correspondent of the Wil mington Messenger says that the case of Turner against Holden occupied the en tire time of Wake Superior c-Ourt Tuesd dav. The lawyers on both sides are con testing every inch of ground and all sorts ef evidence is being introduce. Tuesday night the evidence for the plaintiff was concluded and that for the dsfendant begun. Mr. Win. Dunn had a trio of Light Brahma at the Fair purchased from one of the most noted breeders of the country a few months ago at a cost of $40 for the three, besides the express charges. He exhibited these snd also some of his own raising. The New Riroe raised birds outscored the others. This speaks well for the succee? that is attending New Berne breeders. The finance committee of the Deaf and Dumb Asylum at Morganton have a knotty question to wresUe with. $10, 000 is needed to complete the building and have it ready by September at which time it was proposed to open the school. The legislature appropriated $70,000 for the work instead of the $80,000 which had beeu figured down to be exactly what was absolutely necessary. Hence the trouble. Uuless the committee borrows the oney the sehool eannot be opened this year. , A SUDDEX, SAD DEATH. A Northern Visitor to Oar City Dies Fits Days After Her Arrlral.
