DR. VOOD.
"OL'Ii FOLKS,"
MtO.M (,'Mjr) OLD TVKItKI.I..
The Economist gets off the follow
ing interesting hi-tory of Dr, Wood:
"There have been different ac
counts of the life record of Dr. W.
Ii. Wood , the new Superintendent
of the Inaane Asjlum and they were
so conflicting that we haye enquired
his history from authentic sources
and learn that be was a native of the
good old county .of Tyrrell, which
has become so distinguished ao a
good starting point for distinguished
men , that younj lawyers, doctors
and others who have ambition's
young dream , generally settle in
that county to take a running start
for life's leap. Gen.lltigrew start
ed from Tyrrell , Gov. Jarvia started
from Tyrrell, Dr. Edward Warren
Hey started from Tyrrell, Itev. Wm.
S. Fettigrew, the brother of Gen.
JohnstoM Fettigrew, all men of mark,
started from Tyrre'l, and now Dr.
W. It. Wood, Superintendent of the
Insane Asylum, turns up from the
soil of Tyrrell. It is a good toil to
vegetate in. Dr. Wood was born in
Tyrrell, as our trusty informant tells
us, and not in 1'lyraoutb, as the
newspapers have it. Put a peg there
on Tyrrell's sido of the board. When
Dr. Wood was a bud of a b:jy, just
out of the seed time, his father emi
grated to Texas, where another lamb
was added to his fob!, that he named
Mirabeau Lamar Wood, aftr the
distinguished Texan, who we believe
was Governor of that revolted Mex-
: icaii province , in the troublous lone
; star perio 1. M L. Wood now lives
: in Bertie county. ly some fortuit
ous and PVr-.. catenation of cir-
' cumstances Dr. Wool drifted from i
Texts to the countv of Gate,, where !
he took root for some time and was
married and practiced the curative
art, we presume with success. He
marrieel the daughter of our okl
friend Mills Daugbtry , who died
early , leaving one son , who is now
a citizen of Bertie county, and is
practicing that profession whose
business it is to make ';the worse
appear the better reason" or words
to that elfect After living in Gates
a considerable period, and having
thoroughly imbibed its atmosphere
,)f independence, Dr . Wood drifted
over Into Scotland Neck, and having
succeeded in professional business
he drifted from there into Dr. Gris
som's vacant seat, where he is now
seated, happily we hope. From these
authentic facts we gather these con
clusions ; that Dr. Wood has always
been under the guide-star of luck.
His nativity was an augury of sue
cess in life. Probably his Infantile
cries were soothed by copious
draughts of Tyrrell juniper water,
and his earliest inspirations were of
the aroma of resinous juniper, both
of wtjic!l gave tenacity t his
con
stitutional fibre. Tbe budding period
of his life was developed ani hard
ened in the rough frontier life of the
carbine and the bowie knife, and he
was fortunate when he reached the
threshold of life in having drifted
into the bounds of old Gates county,
the banuer county of North Caro
lina for all the sturdy and masculine
qualities of manhood, where self
respect is a degree higher than any
county in the State, where a man
will knock you down quicker for
calling him a liar than any where
else in the State, and where the tie
of fraternity of county is stronger
and tighter than any part of tbe
State. Hence we can say with con
fidence, that in his administration
j of the State'
s greatest charity, he
i wU not restrain a
Gate9 county
patient by throwing him down and
putting his foot upon his neck,

How useless our lives seem to us
sometimes. How we long for sn op
Iortun:ty to perform sorre grat ac
tion. We becotLe tired of the rou
tine of home life, and imagine we
would be far happier in other
scene. We forget that the world
bestows no titles as nobis as father
and mother, sister or brother. In
the Bacred precincts of Lome we
have many chances of heroism.
Tbe
daily acts of Hclf-deniai for tbo good
of a loved one, the gentle word of
soothiDg for another's trouble, the
care for sick, may all Boern as no
thing ; vet who can tell ti e good
they may accomplish? Our slightest
word may have ai influence over
another for good or evil. We are
daily sowing the seed which will
bring forth some sort of harvest.
Well will it be for us if the harvest
will be one we will be proud to
garner. If some one in that dear
home can look back in after years,
and , as he tenderly utters our ratne,
say 'Tier words and example pre
pared me for a life of usefulness, to
her I owe my present happiness,"
we may well say :"I have not lived
in vain."

We know that a small country
paper, faithfully edited, is really
worth more to the county m which
it is published and mainly circu
lates, than a dozen mammoth
Northern or Southern weeklies or
huge dailies published beyond tbe
State. North Carolina needs always
North Carolina papers. It has
never received justice at the hands
of even Southern papers in other
States. Rut home patronage is not
"neu to newspapers, i lie pnu-.
j ...
l)!e hiX!i a ft sweeping, all-
embracing application. The people
who rush from home to buy every
thing will live and die a poor, de
pendent people. Mark that. The
people who produce what they con
sume are tbe only independent peo
ple. This way of going out of the State
to procure articles that are produce
ed in the State is a bad way to build
up and to, foster a spirit of indc-i
pendence. You are not expected to
patronize home folk? when they are
exorbitant in charges when they
practice upon your extortion. But
when you can get at home any ar
ticle at a small advance upon what
it can bo procured elsewhere it is
not r.ciglil orl y or sj'mpathetic or
public spirited to send away for it.
Help develop home industry and
home enterprises. That will be
foiinu a good rule to work by.

My Dear Sir: I bate long been of

the opinion that we ought to have commercial and manufacturing itn
small, comfortable homes for our ; portance. Ve were pleased to see
i sged- inhrm and disabled ConfrJer-

sections of tbe State. I have on tbe
Raleigh v Gaston Railroad at Ridge

sqnare, a .'0 thirty) room, Mansard
roofed, brick building, with long
porticos, &c, whiei. I think, would
be suitable for one of these ''Homes"
If your association should ' be of t be
6ame opinion, after examination of
the property, and will me it for that
purpoH they may have the free use
of it for 25 years ; or as long as used
for a Confederate soldiers' home.
We may not be able to give large j
tensions and maintain in atlluc-nce j
thpse aged, inGrm and disabled sol-j
diers, who risked all and have suffer- j
ed so much for the defence of what j
they beiieved to be right, but we can
gie them such care and comforts as!
will make their lives more pleasant
and convince them that they have
not been deserted by their old com
rades, "who have been more fortunate
in the hard battle of life, which has
been so manfully fought under ad

furling of the Confederate flag at

We clip tbe following interesting
article from the Wilmington Star :
The rice planters near Savannah
have found a way of utilizing the
rice straw, which has heretofore been
burnt on many of the plantations.
The Morning Navs says: Tt has been
found, after having been submitted
to a practical test , to be valuable in
paper manufac ure. II. McA, Schlej
has been in correspondence for some
time with the Fitzgibbons Paper
Manufacturing Company in New
York, with a view to having the mill
handle the rice straw of this section,
and as experiments have proved that
the rice straw is adapted to the man
ufucture of iaper for wrapping, for
grocers' bags , and even for finer
grades of commercial paper, the
company has placed its order with
51r. Schley for 3.000 or 4,000 tons of
straw."
ICice I'uddin-.
Beat six eggs with twelve table
spoonfuls of sugar, then add irrad-
j ually two teacupfuls of rice that has
170 j been boiled soft, and one tablespoon
0 ful of butter. Flavor with grated
nutmeg or
lemon. Add last one
quart of fresh milk, pour into a bak
ing dish, and when you put it m
the oven cover it so that it may not
brown too quickly. Just as soon
as- it is done remove it from tbe
oven ; if allowed to remain in too
long it becomes watery, but if taken
out as soon as done it will be firm
all through.

The Twin City Daily says the fol
lowing concerning the bashs of South
ern prosperity :
All the history of the past stands
forth in support of the assertion that
an agricultural neonlo hav alwivs
j , , . . .
! been more sturdy and less proRi2ate
than those engaged in any other pur- j
suits They are free from the cor J
rupting influences that entangle the
unsuspecting of other occupation
in more crowded communities. There
is no better safe-guard for the stability
of a nation tban a sturdy, prosperous
agricultural populace. Tbe fact that
its material value is not always its
greatest value is recognized whi n
the character of an agricultural peo
ple is considered, and when we re
flect that the noblest types of man
hood, tbe men that have done most
for tbe world, have come from the
rural district'?.
We are fortunate to haye so firm u
basis to build upon, and to have tbe
influence of our conservative and
powerful agricultural populace to
counteract the influence of the dis
turbing elements that usually follow
rapid industrial growth.
l.auglil er it aooI.
(Spirit of tbe Age.)
It is the proper thing to be sober
sometimes, but it is not the proper
thing for a man to be all the time
looking just as if he bad buried his
last friend. It is unnatural. We
must have our dark days our rainy
da s it is true but after tbe dark
neso and the storm have passed, the
sun comes out again as bright anil
glorious as ever, and the birds eintr,
and the very leaves of the trees seem j
to clap their hands for joy .
We love to see a man lauzb, and
there is nothing better for a dy s
peptic than to fall into the company
of men who cai, with their good
humored witticisms, shake him up a
little, and make him for a time, at
least, put on a cheerful face. A
good, hearty laugh is better many a
j time, than a liver pill. Laugh apd
! grow fat, is an old proverb, but.
somehow or somehow else, we never
coald do enough laughing to make j
the flesh grow on our bones but we !
like to see cheerful people and a
good laugh all the same. What we
mean by this article is simply, that
people should be cheerful and not i
go through the world looking like
omb stones, ami thereby
making
h ers miserable.
