- Mr. Carlisle ipoke in part as fol
low: :
W NOW HATS PRACTICAL BIMET-
5-': -" V V?? ; .; aujsm,
It ig contended by a largo number
of tho advocate of freo coinage
perhapa a majority of them that
the effect of their policy would be,
sot to abolish the present standard
- . of raiae and substitute the single
ailrer standard in ita place, bat that
it TO old asUbliah What they call
bimetallism and a doable standard.
I confess my inability to under
stand vhat ia really meant by a
doable etiiidard or measure of value;
the idea ia incomprehensible to my
mind, because I cannot conceive how
it ia possible to have two different
legal and authoritative measures of
' the same thing in use at the same
.'time, as, for instance a pound
-weighing sixteen ounces and a
pound -weighing eight ounces, or
only half ' as much, and both de
clared by law to be legal pounds.
I agree entirely with Gen. Jack
son' Secretary of the Treasury, who
said, The proposition that there
can be but one standard in fact is
self-evident." The proposition to
establish and maintain two different
measures of value to be in use at the
'. same time, and to be applied to the
same things at the same time, em
bodies physical and metaphysical
absurdity, and this is so evident that
the ablest thinkers and writers upon
the subject have been at last forced
to abandon it.
We can ail understand how it is
possible to have an alternating
standard and circulation, sometimes
gold and. sometimes silver, and the
monetary history of the world proves
that this ia just what happens when
ever " the two metals are freely
coined in any country and made full
. .-legal tender. - Yalues will always be
measured by the Jcind of money in
- actpal circulation, no matter what
the law may declare, and, therefore,
if the free and unlimited coinage of
silver at the ratio of 16 to 1 should
drive out gold and substitute silver
: and paper redeemable in silver in its
place, we should have a single silver
standard and actual silver monomet--:
allism. : Instead of using both gold
and 8lfpr, as we do now in larger
amount than ever before in our his
tory, we should instantly expel the
."i? more valuable metal from the coun
. trf and make te other the sole
basis cf pur currency. We have
now practical bimetallism the use
' ' of both metals as money; we should
. hve then practical monometallism
the use of only one metal as mon
ey.' This is neither speculation nor
prophecy, but conclusion based ' on
- facts established by the experience
of all nation in all ages.
XXPORT PRICES WILL NOT KISE.
' All who haTe been or may be in
duced to give their support to the
revolutionary free coinage policy
upon the assurance that it will give
. . . v the country more money for use in
. the transaction of business will be
' greatly disappointed, for they will
find, when it ia too late, that in
; stead o baring more money they
-will have lees, and that it will be
depreciated in vajne besides.
- TEe act providing for the pur
chase of ai)rer bullion and the issue
pf legal-tender Treasury notes in
rayment for it was passed on the
4th dJ of July, 1890, ani the
purchasing clause of that was re
pealed November 1, 1893. While it
remained in force, - United States
Treasuy notes were issued to the
. amount of $155,931,003, and there
were many people who believed that
this was making a material and per
manent- addition to the volume of
pur currency; but the official records
show that during the same time the
iSt export)! of gold from this ooun
. try amounted to 1103.419,491, so
that the real addition to our circu
lation accomplished by the issue of
nearly 1156.000,000 of new notes
was about fifty-two and a half mil
lion dollars during a a period of
more than three years The mere
apprehension that the government
wen Id not be able to maintain the
" parity of the two metals under the
- policy inaugurated by that act not
. only discredited the new Treasury
notes themselves, but the whole vol
' m of our currency, and gold went
out about as fast as the new notes
same in.
TJHTRCSTWOKTHT CI KKEX Y.
t . While, therefore, it is not at
C certain that free coinage would
.timatolT snake any considerable
all
dition to our circulation, it ia abso-
lutely certain that it would give us a
-. . depreciated and fluctuating curren
. cy, and the question is whether the
producers of cotton, wheat, corn,
. beef , pork, oil, lard, cheexe, aud
' other exportable articles will be ben-
Refitted injured by such a result.
-'J-. It ia an axiom in trade that the
. '. pricee of ' exportable products are
fixed in the foreign market where
- the surplus is sold, and are fixed in
the currency of that country accord -
: ing to ita nominal value there. If
- sold in England, for illustration, the
' pricee are fixed and paid in pounds,
shillings and pence,, and not in dol
, lars and cents, and consequently it
makes no difference to the foreign
. purchaser what kind of currency
theproducer has at borne.
7m character or value of currency
: ' " ute l tk producing country does
' not mjfecS the' price of the article
abroad to any extent whatever, for
the purchaser there trades in his own
V market and uses his own currency in
. measuring values. The establish
' -, ment of a silver standard here could
t not possibly increase the price of
coUon or wheat or any other Amer
. ican product in Liverpool, London,
Paris or Berlin, whatever effect it
"anight have upon the nominal price
. ; in thin country.
. ' THICHIAP MOSEY ARGUMENT.
One of the most effective argu
. ment made by the advocates of free
'.;.' coinage in some parts of tbecountry,
: at least, is th Ue people are in
;1 debt, and that it is the duty of the
Ejvernment to relieve them by such
gislation as will enable them to
procure cheap monev for the pur
' . pose of discharging their obligations,
and in support of this argument the
mnost exaf srerated statements are
made as to the depressed and suffer
ig condition of our farmers, wage
eamera, and othe producing classes.
Thia argument concedes that under
4he proposed system of free coinage
at the rate of 16 to 1 all the various
kinds of currency in use by the peo
ple, including the silver dollar itself
would be worth lees than it ia now,
for, of course, if this is not to be the ,
result money would be no cheaper ;
thiin it is now. ;
To a&jcrt that the iK-oplo uro in j
debt is simply to say that they hara '
traded with each other on credit
that one part of our fellow citizens,!
relying upon the integrity and ti-j
nancinl standing of tlioir neighbors
and acquaintances, have lent them
money on time and sold property to
them without (kniauilini; immediate
payment in c;ih, ami that in this
way they have enabled many people
to carry on a useful business and live
in comfortable homes who otherwise
conld not have done o. If it is a
crime to lend money to a man who
wants to pnreh.ise it, and 1uik no
ready money to pay for it, let tho
perpetrators !o properly punished,
but let us not involve tho whole
country in confusion and disaster
and immolate the innocent and
guilty alike in order to punish the
real offenders. If our people are in
debt they owe each other, and, con
sequently, about as many would be
actually injured as would be ap
parently benefitted by scaling the
obligations down to a silver stand
ard. NO
DISTINTT DEBTOR
I.
I deny that there
is anv such
thing as a distict
in this country,
debtor class' " in
for while nearly
everv one owes some debts, large or
small, nearly every one has also
some debts owing to him; in other
words, he is both debtor and credi
tor. The laboring people, as a gen
eral rule, owe very little at any one
time, while their employers are
always indebted to them, because
wages are not paid in advance; and
besides, many of them have small
deposits in savings and other banks,
in trust companies, in building as
sociations, and large numbers of
them have their lives insured for the
benefit of their wives ami children,
and consequently they are creditors
of the banks and insurance com
panies Here, then, are about 21,000,000
of our people, generally poor, or at
least people of moderate means, who
have given credit to these great cor
porations and companies, and, in
my opinion, it would be a grjeyous
wrong to adopt any policy which
would deprive them of the legal
right to demand and receive iust as
good money as they paried with
when they made the deposits in the
banks or paid the premiums on
their insurance policies.
SCARCE MONEY NOT THE DISTURB
ING CAUSE
We have an abundance of money
in this country for all the purpose
of trade, and the disturbances and
hard times of 1893 and 1894 were
not caused by a scarcity or con
traction of the currency, but by a
contraction of credit resulting from
a loss of confidence in the stability
and value of currency, So far as
the mere volume of our currency is
concerned, we had then aud have
now an ample supply for all neces
sary purposes, but under the exist
ing system it is not properly distri
buted and is not sufficiently elastic
to meet all the changing require
ment of business at different periods
of the year.
THE GOVERNMENT AS A BANKER.
The United States should go en
tire out of the banking business by
the withdrawal of its rarbitary and
compulsory issue of notes and afford
the people au opportunity to supply
their own currency based upon
their own means and credit, thus
enabling every community to utilize
its own resources when necessary,
and adjust the circulation from time
to time to the actual demands of
legitimate commerce. In what way
this shall be accomplished is a ques
tion which has already engaged the
serious attention of the people and
Snblic authorities, and it will no
oubt continue to be investigated
and discussed until a plan is formu
lated which, if not perfect, will at
j iwv no i c nil? uioiib vi i irrri ng a i cat
improvement upon the existing
system.
In the meantime our highest duty
is to preserve the present standard
of value, maintain the parity of the
two metals, and keep all the money
in circulation among the people,
whether it be gold and silver coins,
or paper based upon them, equal
in purchasing power, so that no
discrimination will or can be made
between those who receive silver or
paper and those who receive gold.
A great government should do
nothing to discredit its own obli
gations or diminish the value of
the money in the hands of its citiz
ens, nor should the people of a great
country ever consent to the
adoption of a policy, through ex
perimental financial legislation or
otherwise, which would vitiate the
obligations of their contracts, in
terrupt the regular course of their
business and destroy the founda
tions -upon which their industrial
aud commercial systems have been
constructed.
The spirit of conservatism is still
strong among our people, and not
withstanding the delusive promises
and selrish appeals that are now
largely influencing their opinion iu
some parts of the country, the truth
will ultimately prevail and I have
no doubt of the result when the
time for final action comes.
REPLIED TO CARLISLE.
Senator Blackburn Speaks at Lawrence
bart; for Free Silver,
Lawrenceburg, Ky., May 2o.
Senator Blackburn, who was adver
tised to answer Secretary Carlisle
here to-day, was greeted by a large
audience. He spoke substantially as
follows:
They were not satisfied to
let Mr. Buckner, Mr. Brown and
myself win this battle on itsmerrits,
but they imposed a man who is
greater than is "John the Baptist,"
to drive back this silver craze, as
they call it. Now understand that
what I am going to say about Mr.
Carlisle will oe said in the kindest
terms possible. I do not mean to
complain of Mr. Carlisle for coming
here to his own State to sneak. He
has the right to come. It was not
nece&sary for him to apologize for
coming. I do not know in what
capacity the gentleman came and
spoke, whether he came as a repre
sentative of this grand old Common
wealth or as Secretary Carlisle, of
Treasury. Bnt God knows I am not!
willinc to believe he came in the !
capacity of Secretary of the Treas- i
urv to dictate to his people what to !
do'about this all important question. ,
But no matter how he came or who
he is, I have the right to answer him j
and that is what I am going to do. ;
It was called sacrilege for me to reply j
to so great a man, but I would reply j
to the President should he come ,
down and take issue against me. I
Applause. No man can get so1
big in mind or person that he can
not be met.
Mr. Blackburn went on to ohow
what he termed Mr. Carlisle's incon
sistency in saying in Covington that
he had never been for free silver. If
the speech lie made in 1ST may not
be called a free silver speech, what
was it? 11c let this speech go for
seventeen years without saying
anything ngainst it. and now lie
comes out and savs it was not a sil
ver speech. Well, then, we will lx'
lieve Mr. Carlisle and not his
speech, and I will go on and give
you a little proof that is proof.
On the Tth day of November,
1877, Mr. Carlisle, while sitting by
my side iu the House of Representa
tives, voted for the Bland bill,
which, as you all know, was a silver
bill out and out. 1 do not ask you to
take my word on this vote, but look
on pages 14.1 and 144 of the Jour
nal of the Fifty-fifth Congress,
Book No. 193.
Only five years ago the Sherman
bill passed. I voted against that
bill. So did Carlisle, yet he is mak
ing the same old speech that Sher
man made then. Now I know you
will say showing his inconsistency
does not answer argument. 1 know
that, and I am now going to answer
argument, every point of it, 1
thought when the mightly Carlisle
came they were going to throw new
light on this subject, but they did
not. He did not advance a single
new idea. First he made the asser
tion that if you have free coinage of
silver you will put tbecountry on a
silver basis, aud drive all the gold
out of the country. This is not
true. We have tried it once, and
when we quit, wo had three dollars
to every dollar in gold, more than
when we began, lie says this coun
try would be the dumping ground
for all silver bullion, lie is off
there, for ours is the only nation
under the snn that has silver.
The speaker went into every point
of the Carlisle speech, and was gen
erally applauded. Mr. Blackburn
then paid liis respects to the Admin
istration. "I am greatly handiaip-
Eed,"hesaid, "hut let me answer
Ir. Carlisle, and all the rpst take
the stqmp aud 1 wjll win this race
in spite of the combination."'
skbb.taryTrkham DEAD.
The Chief of President Cleve
land's Cabinet.
Died Tuesday Moraior at 1:12 O'clock
of Pleural aad Pneumonia -Particular?
of Ills Illness and U. ath,
Washixgtqjt, May 28. Dr.
W. Johnson, the physician who
been in daily attendance 014
w.
lias
Mr.
tho
Gresham, has just given out
following statement of the case:
secretary Cresham s illness
baa
been an acute pleurisy with effusion,
beginning on May 1st. frm May
13th his condition was favorable
and his speedy recovery was confi
dently expected. On May 25th
symptoms of relapse appeared, due
to the development of acute pneu
monia. Ilis present alrrming con
dition is due to weakness of the
heart's action and there seems to be
little or no hope of his recovorv.
Dr. Prentiss, one of the Secretary's
physicians, said at 10 o clock that
the Secretary might live through
the night, and possibly until the
forenoon tomorrow.
At 8:30 o'clock a telegram was
sent to Judge Otto, of Philadelphia,
telling him to come to the bedside
of the Secretary, as he was dying.
Judge Otto was a comrade of the
Secretary in the late war.
A telegram was also sent to Secre
tary Gresham'a son, Qtto Gresham,
at Chicago, informing him that the
end was near, and to hasten to Wash
ington without delay. President
Cleveland, who is at his villa at
Wood ley, a few miles from the
White House, has been kept fully
informed of the Socretary's condi
tion. The Arlington Hotel in the cor
ridors and at the private entrance is
crowded with distinguished officials
aexiously awaiting news from the
sick-room.
At 11 o'clock the physicians of
Secretary Gresham ceased their
efforts to revive him, as his system
was entirely too weak to respond to
their efforts. He died at l.l'l a. m.
During the day the Secretary lay
in a stupor, which was the founda
tion for the report that he was
"resting easily." As soon as the
physicians, however, realized that
the end was approaching, the heroic
measures usual iu such cases, were
adopted. Notwithstanding their
efforts the patient sank rapidly.
The physicians in attendance were
Messrs. W. W. Johnston and Pren
tiss of this city, the latter having
been called into tho case within the
past few days. This evening Dr.
Vantteussellaer was also called in
and it wag he who performed the
operation of injecting the normal
saline. At lo o'clock tonight the
physicians acknowledged that they
considered the case a hopeless one,
but they did not relax their efforts.
The Secretary, who has been con
scious during his entire illness,
seems to have been more concerned
for his wife thau for himself. He
realized that the end was approach
ing, hut his constont suggestion
made iu feeble whispers to his
daughter was: "Iook out for your
motlier; give her all your attention:
don't worry about me."
The news of Secretary Gresham's
relapse did not become known until
six o'clock this evening, at which
hour his niece, Mrs Fuller, wife of
Capt. Fuller, of the Army, was sent
for. It spread rapidly and by S
o'clock scores of persons prominent
in public life had called to express
their sympathy. Among tho early
callers wero Secretary and Mrs.
Lamont. Mr. Thurber, the Presi
dent's private secretary, also arrived
at an early hour, and was requested
to notify the President that the
Secretary of State was rapidly sink
ing. He did so, and later in the
evening communicated the fact that
the President was detained at Wood
ley by illness; that he desired to
come to the city as soon as the in
formation of the Secretary's serious
condition was made known to him,
but that he refrained from doing so
at the advice of his physician. The
members of the diplomatic corps,
who are extremely punctilious in
matters of this character, called dur
ing the evening and left their cards.
Other callers were Chief Justice
Fuller and Associate Justice Harlan
of the Supreme Court, Assistant
Secretaries Uhl and Adee, of the
State Department, Col. H. C. Cor
bin. Assistant Postmaster-Generals
Maxwell and Jones, and Comptroller
r ckels.

ceeded :
"Wo do not deny to Mr. Carlisle
the right to change his opinion, but
it has been more than a change of
opinion: it has been a change of
heart, Mr. Carlisle at that time
was the Moses of the common people:
he is now the commander-in-chief
of Pharaoh's army, lie was then
the courageous and zealous leader of
the masses in tho effort to restore
the gold and silver coinage of the
Constitution; he is now the foremost
champion of the very forces that he
then denounced with eo much vigor.
"In li is denunciation of Senator
Sherman at that time, Mr. Carlisle
stated in substance: First, that the
interests of tho idle holders of idle
capital are different from the inter
ests of the struggling masses; second
that Senator Sherman sympathizes
with the capitalists rather than with
the masses; and third, that Senator
Sherman, as a public official sworn
to do his duty, would be governed
by his sympathies and, therefore,
coin only half as much money as he
would coin if his sympathies were
with the straggling masses.
"History bore out the prophecy
made by Mr. Carlisle, because Mr.
Sherman and his successors never
coined more thau the minimum
amount. Senator Sherman and Mr.
Carlisle are now in hearty accord.
Has Senator Sherman at last become
the champion of 'tho struggling
masses, or has Secretary Carlisle bo
come - the champion of the 'idle
holders of idle capital?' "
Mr. Bryan discussed various phas
es of the money question ; quoted
frequently from Secretary Carlisle
and answered his arguments by
arguments formerly made by Sena
tor Carlisle or dy statistics. He
closed by saying that Secretary Car
lisle had deserted the struggling
masses for whom he formerly spoke,
but even without his leadership,
they would be able to cast their bal
lots for the restoration of the gold
and silver coinage of the Constitu
tion and that the present efforts of
Secretary Carlisle, instead of retard
ing the movement, would make his
former speech familiar to the Amer
ican people, and show the danger of
entrusting our financial policy to
the "vile holders of idle capital,'' cr
to their representatives.
After arguing the inconsistency
between the utterances of Mr. Car
lisle in 1S78 aim his recent speeches,
he said the opponents of free coin
age had for years shielded themselves
behind ambiguous phrases, and
have pretended to be adherents of
bimetallism. It has for that reason
been difficult to make the issue
clear and distinct. Since Mr. Cleve
land and Mr. Carlisle have now pro
nounced for glod, there is no longer
any need for doubt or concealment.
A universal gold staudard would be
a crime against mankind. Our na
tion, as a debtor nation would suf
fer much more than England from
a gold standard. The speaker quot
ed from a memorial presented yes
terday to the Chancellor of the
English Exchequer, regretting the
growing agitation in favor of bime
tallism. The United States should
take the lead for the restoration of
silver.
The ratio of 10 to 1 is tho most
practical one. If it it should be
fixed differently, 'H to 1 by inter
national agreement, it would con
tract the metallic money of the
world one sixth, increase the debts
of the world billions of dollars, and
decrease the market value of the
property of the world. "I believe
the United States is large enough to
afford au unlimited market for all
the silver that would come to it, aud
maintain the parity at the present
ratio. It is absurd to speak of the
silver dollar as a cheap tloJJjj-, and
then complain that freo coinage
would enrich the mine-owners. Mr.
Cleveland and his associates seem to
be trying to run the Democratic
party on the financial policy of John
Sherman "
"The agitation now going on will
aoon be over, aud the Democratic
party will rest again in undisturbed
possession of Democratic principles,
and will present an almost unbroken
front in favor of the gold and
silver coinage of the Constitu
tion. S eretary Carlisle Hanged in ElHjry.
St. I joris, Mo., May 25 A special
from New Orleans says that Secre
tary Carlisle was hanged in etligv
in Natchitoches Thursday night
on account of his anti-silver
speech.
A negro appeared on the streets
in the evening, carrying around a
placard announcing that there
would be a hanging at the bridge
at 8 o'clock. A large number of
people assembled, imagining that
there was to be a lynching. They
found instead the effigy of the
Secretary of the Treasury hanging
from the bridge.
Natchitoches is a unit for free
silver but some of the people regret
the effigy business.

The chairman then laid before the

to ( 'oin m,ander John li. Cordon,
fxpres.-ing hi.-: appreciation of the

ders of the great contending armies
agreed on a conference in lSiio the
world was astonished at the terms
of the convention. There was to be
no punishment meted out to the
Confederates, but they wero to be
defended so long as they maintained

Those expressions meant not only to
terminate the conflict, hut to pre
vent any conflict among the sections
thereafter.

and dishonesty of the operation, no
body would be materially helped or
injured by the new condition,
l'riees would adjust themselves ti
the eighteen inch yard ami all would
go on as before.
Now our standards of value are
inucli tlie same thing. A dollar is

indebtedness that is only a small
part of the world s wealth the part
that is used in facilitating exchanges
but the real wealth of the world i.s
m houses, lands, railroads, farms,
orops, goods of all kinds, and it is
comparatively little importance' just
now how long a yard stick we use in
measuring off the value of these
things, so long as we know what tho
yard stick is and treat debtors and
(ucditors alike in its use,
The gold standard has given to
the world a uniform dollar. While
commodities in certain instances
cheapen by reason of improved pro
cesses of production and greater
competition the gold dollar contin
ues to represent about the same
amount of human labor and human
exertion as applied to the average
sphere of production. There is no
more sense in scaling down the
standard of value because certain
commodities have grown cheap than
there would be in tinkering with
the yard stick because cotton cloth
was being more easily made as im
provements in looms were discovered
and applied.
Free silver would noi mean what
its advocates expect. It would tem
porarily relieve debtors at the ex
pense of creditors and a general
financial panic would ensue a "loss
of confidence" panic. IJ tit free silver
does not mean silver freely distri
buted. The same commodities
would have to be given in exchange
for silver that are now given for
gold, and if cotton, for instance,
brought more in silver dollars under
the silver standard, these same dol
lars on the other hand would buy
correspondently less of the things
which the farmer must have in ex
change for his crop. Free silver
would not increase tho sunshine, or
temper the storm, or improve pro
cesses of production, or change the
law of demand and supply, or lessen
the rate of interest; since that, too,
will always be regulated by demand
and supply and prosperity makes a
demand for the use of wealth which
will keep up the rate of hire of
wealth, as in other things. Free sil
ver would work no panecea, would
bring no permanent or pratical
improvement in the condition of
anybody, except tho silver-mine
owners, and the dangers aud disad
vantages of the policy are well
known and clearly seen.
The greatest fundamental of suc
cess in a nation as in an individual
is a reputation for honesty, and in
no way can we discredit ourselves
and our investments before the
world so quickly as by tempering
with our standard of value, and
thus allying ourselves with the poor
er nations of the world rather than
the richer and stronger. Let us
continue to use the standard of the
civlilized nations of the world, and,
thus give a guarantee to those whp !
would favor us with loans whojCL vve
need them, that our obLigaAio.'ns
honestly incurred will be fuifl' met,
ami thus we shall go on to. a. lusting
prosperity among the uAtijons of the
earth.

FIRST CONFEDERATE KILLED.
He Was Henry L VyaU, or tlu First
North Carolina Resijnout.
The "Hrief Sketches of North
Carolina Troop.,"' say.-:
The very first life hist in. the final
direct struggle over secession was on
the Federal side at Fort Sumter in
an accidental explosion, after the
fort had surrendered, April Li. lSn;i.
Put the first Confederate, to be kill
ed in line of hat tie was Private
Henry Lawson Wyait. a soldier in
Company A. First, North Carolina
Itegimont... Lni.an.try. His life was
lost in the battle known as that of
"Pig' Bethel."' fought June- (". liSol,
near Yorktowii.,
The conflict at Pig JJethe,! was the
first land battle- of t lie war. Though
on a minor scale, it was a brilliant
victory for the Southern arnLs. The
Confederate troops engaged belong
ed to the command of Ceneral John
P. Magruder, the infantry force be
ing chiefly the first .North Carolina
Regiment, under the immediate
command of Colonel I). 11. Hill,
who was afterwards a lieutenant
general in the Confederate service
and who has been quite universally
regarded as the hero of the battle.
The lieutenant colonel of the regi
ment, was C. C. Lee, and the major
was James II. Lane, both of whom
subsequently rose to the rank of
brgadier general in the Confederacy.
The regiment passed into history as
"The Bethel Pegiment" of North
Carolina troops.
The Federal troops engaged in
the action were under the immedi
ate command of Ceneral P. F. Uut
ler. Henry Lawson Wyatt was a. son of
Ishani and Lucinda Wyatr. Henry
had learned the carpenter's trade,
and was working in Tarboro, 7S'. C,
when the war broke ous his father
having moved from Pitt comity, X.
C, in ls.ji;.
Young Wyatt was cue of the very
first men to enlist a soldier for
the Southern cause when the Gover
nor of North Carolina called for
volunteers in Api'iJ, 18dl, after the
Lincoln proela&uition declaring war
against the Soutnern States. He

Young Wyatt lost his life under
circumstances of great g-allautrv
and heroism. In the beginning of

shooters of the enemy occupied a

"(iitmleis."
I very often heal' some badly
plaining about something,
would like to say a word along
line. If the human inhabitant!
oill
aml this
; of
this earth were divided with a strict
reference to t heir habits, we would
have a class called grow lers. Growl
ers seems to be the best name we
can find grumblers is too mild a
term. I hey are a t lass w hose com-l
pany is not desirable. If you are
going on a pleasure trip be sure that
you have none of this class with yoo;
for. if you call their attention even
to the sublime works of nature they
are ready to find some fault and sav
that there is nothing beautiful there
they have seen that many a time.
The habit of fault-finding is f?o
deeply rooted in them that it seems
a jiart of their very nature. It is
always too hot or too cold, too wet
or too dry. If we have a drought,
they say they would be glad to i;ee it
rain a week, bnt let tho rain des
cend for a few hours and it looks to
them like so much wet weather will
ruin everything.
Let them become offended at some
' imaginary injustice, and they go
around growling about the way they
are treated in this world, and seems
I to believe that thev have more
trouble than any one else.
lint I suppose such people are
necessary to make a complete human
family. So 1 reckon its all right, or
i it wouldn't be so.

N KWI'OKT'S SCHOOL.
A Public Met-tUua: Resolutions and
Movements for its Continuance.
At a called meeting of the citizens !
of Newport ami vicinity, at the j
Academy, F. II. Hill was called to.
the chair and A. O. Newberry was'
appointed secretary. The chairman j
stated that the object of the meeting j
was to indorse Mr. Mewborn's school ,
ami to make arrangements for its:
continuance. After remarks of
approval by many of the citizens,
Dr. L. V. Perkins offered the fol
lowing resolutions which were unan
imously adopted.
Whereas, G. W. Mewhorn has
successfully established in our
midst the best school ever known in
the village, and has by his untiring
devotion to the interest of his pupils
and' his arduous labors and wise
counsels met the approval of the
friends of education, .we feel that he
should meet the encouragement
from all classes and conditions of
society, whose interest he has shown
himself to have fully at heart, bv
extending free tuition to the indi
gent boys and girls of the com muni
fcy. Mr. Mewborn's high moral
character, superior school govern
ment and ripe scholarship places his
school before the public in a superi
or light, and we consider it the
chief pride of the community in
which it is located.
Therefore, Resolved, That we
endorse with great pleasure Mr
Mewhorn as a wise, prudent and
pains-taking teacher; impartial in
atl ministration of the laws of his
echool. loved by his pupils and re
vered by all who understand his su
perior methods. We regard him as
n gentleman of the highest moral
type and one well qualified to im
part lessons of wisdom and morality
tt those entrusted to his care.
TJesoIved, That we view with
- . . i.
scorn ana uiaignaiion any eiiori, ou
tlu? part of any one, to make dis
paraging remarks, in public or pri
vate, of the school or the methods
employed for aiding the pupils to
advance in the various branches of
literature, and in the development
of every variety of talent.
Resolved, That a copy of these
resolutions be presented to Mr.
Mewborn and that a copy be sent to
the Nkw Bkusk Journal and also
to die Beaufort Herald for publica
tion. A building committee was appoin
ted to take the work in hand of en
larging the Academy, by adding
two new rooms, one for music and
drawing, and one for telegraphy,
stenography and kindred branches.
E. H. Hi ix, President.
A. 0. Nkwiiekry, Secy.
dii:o.
At his residence on Queen's creek,
Thursday night, May Kith, at 10
o'clock, Wilber Hatsell, son of Mr.
and Mrs. Bryant Hatsell. He seem
ed to be perfectly ready to tlie. lie
Kaid he was going right to heaven
and didn't fear death at all.
After several weeks illness with all
the skill and kind treatment of sev
eral physicians and the diligent
nursing of a loving wife, mother
and sisters, the Great and Allwise
Being in his wisdom and mercy saw
fit to remove him from among our
midst, and the community at large
tleem if. indeed a irreat blow to lose
such a noble and benevolent young
man. He leaves behind, a loving
wife, three little children, his motli
er, father and brothers, sisters, and
host of tlear friends.
Ami vet while it is hard to part
vith those we love when we know
osie has led the life of such an up
right man as Wilber has, we should
comfort ourselves by feeling that
our great loss is his everlasting gain
and remember that we are taught
that: Plessetl are t he deatl wlm-ii inc
in the Lord from henceforth: Yea,
s.Mth ihe snirit that thev may;
rest from their labors: ant
their
works do follow them, and
( Kind friends forbear to weep,
Since death has lost his sting,
Those Christians that in Jesus sletq
Our God will with him bring.
