On that ' day -the 24th -happened what our most sanguine citizens evenwo years : ago fefgned io hope-rhe inauguration of a d4lf mail train. Surelyjt was aday'of no little'potence. W'hat'ouUur'ancestors yonderrestihg in our already filled church yards say if they could awake and look upon Windsor of i8s9-tMtTmany large nck buildings, its busy-mills, its .many other, internal improvements and then realize the relegation; of "mule" transportation to everlasting eternity (we ' hope) and the inaugration of a daily.mairsrvicel We say that this means much to our people.

" ' ' . We learn that the postmaster . at Plymouth declined to recommend 4the fchange in the mail . route from here to Plymouth.

His public addresses reflect the noble senti ments that appear in his paper. He believes in a higher and a better citizenship. In addition to his religious edi torials he fills the Recorder witbTable comment on current events. He is helping to shape North Carolina . citizen ship in the direction of 1 intelligence, virtue and truth. Our people met him with much pleasure, and he ' carries home with him most favorable impressions of our county It would give them much pleasure, and give the - State a first class school system, if he was nominated for Superin tendent of Public Instruction.
