2nd. of April. He is now on a tour
of the State with his ' 'Evening of
Story and Song" or "Old Times
Down. South."
At each place he has. appeared, ht
has been complimented to the high
est degree and has, with his delinea
tion of the old plantation, negro,
captured every audience. He is ad
mitted to be the finest lecturer, on
his subject, that- has ever appear
ed before the public and deservedly
so, for, he knows the negro of ' the
old South.
His present tour is conducted in
the in terest of a cause dear to the
hearts of every North Carolinian,
that of erecting a monument to the
memory of our greatest Senator and
most beloved patriot, Zebulon B.
Vance.
Senator Vance was an alumnus of
the University and his life was de
voted to the interests of our State,
reflecting honor on himself, the Uni
versity and the State by his faith

Ohl happy man whose sight is blessed
With all thy beauty's perfectnessl
When Love, with gentle influence warm.
Shall once enfold thy faultless form
He then shall find a sweeter saint
Than Fancy's pencil ere could paint.
The fairies gave thy heart so true;
The fairies gave thine eyes' deep blue;
Where Cupid sits, an archer bold,
To wound all men who dare behold,
And Freedom's lost beyond repair
To thqse who linger gazing there.
