to us with its usual freshness and
variety of topics. It is an able
college journal.
"He that til'eth his land shall
have plenty of bread ; but lie that
followeth alter vain persons shall
Lave poverty enough,"
It is sometimes said a person can
do but one tiling at a time. If this
weie .strictly true, it would be im
possible to teach school. In fact,
the teacher must do several things
at once, and do them all well. It is
largely this ability which makes
the born teacher. .vovo-' J-Jd,,

The JUjhitor says that there are prob
abilities of a tobacco warehouse being
built at ("reenville this yea.r There will
be much more tobacco raised in Pitt this
year than ever before. Our neighbor is
urjing the people of Greenville to petition
the railroad company to build a hand

is sensible, as are most of the Retiextvr's

that cotton stalks sprouted from the

cotton.

Grady are attracting attention away
from home. A gentleman of observation
and fine judgement said to us that The
DKMocKATis the only county paper in the
State that has published them. By the way,
some of our exchanges have clipped from
these articles and said that the quotation
was from Mr. Grady's speech published
in this paper. We did not publish the
great speech. We publish a series of

uuiet and every body settled down at
home again. About 11 o'clock Mr. Hryan
and Dr. McDowell made further examin
acon to assure themselves that the fire
was certainly extinguished, and they
found every thing satisfactory and Dr

of Mr. Bryan's house was again blazing
and the family in bed unconscious of toe
danger. About that time Mr. Bryan
heard the roaring of the flames and rush
ed out agiiu to find his house hopelessly
enveloped in the Lambent flames.
The call of distress rang out clear
again over the illumined town and help
quickly gathered and succeeded in get
ting the family and almost all the furni
ture out before the roof all fell ir. The
rain and stillness of the night kept Dr.
Johnson's lot and stables from burning.
The spectacle was truly saddening. A
comfortable home in flames aud the
father, mother and grandmother, with
five small children, in the drizzling rain
at the midnight hour. The homes of the
neighbors were open to them, however,
and they found comfortable quarters and
sympathetic friends all around them. The
house was one of the oldest in the town,
having been built in 1S53. It was fairly
well covered by insurance.
Mr. Bryan's family next day took
rooms in the building in front of the
Baptist church where he lived last year,
and are now quietly settled down and he
will re-build on his lot at an early day.

Mit. Editor: You had a notice of
Mr. J. R. Pettitt'j premium acre in your
last issue, but I wish to write more at
length, particularly of the cultivation.
Mr. Pcttitt received the first premium
$io'j in from, ins yieiu uemg i,:j4 ids
lint. The second premium was awarded
to Mr, Thos. II. Conyers, of Franklinton,
$59 in gold, his acre making 1,120 lbs of
lint.
Mr. Ptttitt's acre was very highly
manured for a number of years previous;
and last year he gave it 200 loads swamp
mud and 100 bushels cotton seed broad
cast, turned under with single horse
plow, followed by sub-soil plow, done in

Mr. W. P. Simpson, of Wilson, form
erly cashier of the Wilson bank, and one
of the best business men of the state, is
looking after his property in this section.
He says tobacco growing will do away
with hard times.
Not many of our colored population
have emigrated, and as I intimated last
week, some have gone to work with com
mendable zeal and earnestness.
Mr. W. S. Totte'n, the new M. P.
pastor of this circuit, preached in town
last Sabbath.
What is the matter with the Alliance
here? There seems to be wanting the
enthusiasm and hopefulness that charac
terized the members when they first
espoused the cause. It's a grand organic
zation founded on truth. It is needed.
Farmers should fraternize.
It would be quite a hdp to us if Fish
ing creek could be made navigable. We
need some means of transportation. We
have timber in large quantities, and I
know of no section in the state that
needs transportation facilities more than
this.
yr. Kitchin's nine reasons for the
truth that is in him are well considered.
His la;t reason seems to be a most
potent one. G. E. M.
