Chicago, June 20l This has proved
another exciting day on changeuid the
condition of affairs has been very much
strained, - Great : trading has changed
over somewhat from provisions to
wheat and corn, and the failures which
have occurred in all lines have caused a
suspicion of unsteadiness to attach to
many of the heavier firms. Fluctua
tions in all markets have been sharp
and rapid, and speculators have in con
sequence been calling indiscriminately
. for margins. One failure was announc
ed duriuar the forenoon, that of George
Stewart & Co. They are reported long
on wheat and lard. All the markets op
to noon displayed signs of weakness.
The markets all assumed a firmer tone
towards the close, although tne severe
drop in pork was not altogether recov

heavily in pork, succumbed, and so no

Senator Hampton delivered the me
morial oration. - He paid a glowing
tribute to the faith, devotion and pa
tience of Southern women and said
when the true story of. the war shall
be written they would not only occupy
the first place in our hearts, but the
first in honor. ' They would always re
pel with scorn and Indignation the im-
Eutation that monuments to the Con
ed erata dead marked the place where
traitors slept. : We of the South were
neither traitors nor rebels, nor was our
war in any proper sense a rebellion. It
was strictly a civil war. growing out of
conflicting interests ana different con
structions of the constitution byoppoe
ing sections of the country.- He con
gratulated the country that the t ature
was auspicious, that the scars of war
were obliterated by time, and demand
ed that "our former enemies do justice
to the motives that inspired our con
duct." i .
The great questions which were at
issue between the North and the South
and which were left to the arbitrament
of war were decided against us, but the
sword never has decided and never will
decide questions involving great prin
ciples. The final judgment as to the
motives and actions of man rests with
a higher tribunal than any on this earth,
and to that last great court of appeal
must every question of right and wrong
be submitted. But we have the Divine
command to yield obedience to consti
tuted authority, and it is the duty of
bvery good citizen who receives the
fro taction of the government to obey
ts laws. There is no inconsistency in
our giving to the constitution and laws
under which we live an earnest, con
scientious support, while we hold in
tender reverence the memory of the
men who died for the cause we held to
be just and right.
The oration was received with much

The State Treasurer has sent to Mr
Wilson, clerk of the board of commis
sioners of Pitt county, the following:
"You communicate the desire of the
commissioners to know what remedy
they have in the case where assessors
have been appointed and notified and
have failed to perform their duty or to
make a report by the second Monday in
June.
"The assessors having failed to per
form their duty an emergency has
arisen requiring the action of commis
sioners, tiec. 1 of the machinery act
provides that the assessment when
made shall be in force until altered as
maybe provided bylaw. This is ap
plicable to an assessment of a former
or present year, as this provision of law
enacted in 1879 has been, continued in
the act of, 1883. It is clear therefore
that the board of commissioners on re
vising and correcting the new assess
ments can take the former assessments
of townships from which no return has
been received for the present year, as a
basis of uniform valuation as prebcrib
in sections 18 and 57 of the machinery
act, and this course is recommended to
the board. In revising and correcting
the assessments the board should not
lose sight of their right to consider the
enhanced value of improved property
in a township and increase the valua
tion accordingly. I think the whole
practical management of this question
rests with the board of commissioners,
who must see that all taxpayers in the
county shall equally and uniformly
share the burden of taxation. It is not
practicable for the board to appoint
new assessors. The list takers are now
engaged in receiving the lists of tax
payers, and the performance of their
duty is confined to twenty days after
the second Monday in June."

and it is very proper for her to take
your arm when walking in a crowded

The final celebrations of the Enrne

place Tuesday night in their respective
halls. To these exercises none are ad

members of each society, thereby de
barring many of the friends of the col
lege from all participation in the exer
cises which to our mind are the most
enjoyable feature of the commence
ment. We think the old paths should
be departed from in this particular
The board of trustees were in session
till a late hour Tuesday night, and still
have much business of importance to
dispose of. Amongst other important
matters coming before board at this
meeting was the election of three new
professors to fill the chairs of Greek.
Latin and Mathematics made vacant
by the resignation of Profs Latimer,
Sampson and Carson. Dr Latimer has
accepted a call to the 8econd Presbyte
rian church at Memphis, Tenn. Prof
J B Sampson goes to take charge of the
Pantops Academy, a flourishing school
near Charlottesville, Vs, Prof W W
Carson leaves to look after his business
interests in Memphis, his former home.
By the resignation of these learned and.
experienced teachers the college has
lost men, whose places, it was feared,
could never be filled. Davidson 'Jus
always been very fortunate In securing
the services of scholars of, marked
ability, and in this Instance if we mis
take not she has been as fortunate as
ever before. To the chair of Greek the
trustees have elected Prof George F
Kicolassen. A M, Ph D, of the South
western Presbyterian University at
Clarksville. Tennessee. Mr Nlcolassen
is a young man of extraordinary merit.
He was graduated at the University of
Virginia with the degree of Master of
Arts in 1880. Leaving that University,
he went to the Johns Hopxins Univer
sity, where he obtained a fellowship,
and was honored with the degree of
Ph. D. His stay 'at Clarksville has
lasted only a year. Prof Kicolasaen has
already distinguished himself as a
scholar and educator, and Davidson
will do well to keep him.
The chair of Latin has been filled by
the election of Wm. J. Bingham, of
Mebaneville, N. C Mr. Bingham came
of Latin stock, being a nephew of Maj.
Bobcat Bingham, and son of the late
William Bingham, author of a series of
Latin text books. He was formerly a
student of Davidson, and was the re
cipient of the Latin prize. I Upon enter
ing the University of Virginia five
years ago he distinguished himself by
carrying off a scholarship, which had
never been won before. . He was em
ployed for two years as Latin instructor
in that University, from which this
year he carries off her highest honor,
the Master's degree. i : f
The -chair of Mathematics will be
filled by Prof. Vincent, of Austin Col
lege, Texas. He graduated at South
Carolina College. . ; '-V l
The college is to t congratulated on
her success in filling the places made
vacant. The professors, elect are men
who will carry out the noble work, be
gun by their predecessors, who have
helped to raise the standard of the in
stitutlon to such a degree that it now
atandajn the opinion of a distinguished
educator, "second to none South of the

The - Salem cornet band marched in

the students, ranged on either aide of

the chief marshal escorted the orator of
the day to the rostrum of the public
hall. "The exercises were, then opened
with prayer,af ter which President Hep
burn, in a happy manner, introduced to
the audience CoL Bennett ILYoung,of
Kentucky, the annual orator. -
The r speaker, V handsome man of
about 45, arose amid great applause,
and, In a pleasing manner, recalled the
day when, nineteen years ago, he first
entered N5rth Carolina. On a Confed
erate blockade ship he entered Wil
mington harbor, where ;he first met
Davidson's beloved president Now,
after the lapse of twenty years, he re
visits Carolina and finds that great
changes hare taken place. Our late
defeat has taught us many' Important
lessons. It has taught us self-reliance,
and caused a development which would
not otberwisa Lave cone to blezs our
beloved Cocli. TLI3 outh Izzl bz3 a
nctla r-ri to ia lis
Anglo-Saxons, r He . appealed ; to - the
young men to fit themselves for the
tasks and duties which await them.
After speaking thus for about ten min
utes, he announced as his subject : The
True Test of Human Greatness." which
.lies in what we do for others. Men are
great as they are onselfish. In an Im-j
pressive manner he urged upon ther
young men to live not for themselves
but for others, citing examples from
ancient 'and modern history to show
that the truly great men of the world,
have been raised to that distinction by
vj. e inn n wee ua oooub wjl un
selfishness. 1 No selfish man, said
he,' had ever. ; gained a place
in the affections - of his fellow men,
and none ever would. Happiness and
selfishness cannot be united. In " doing
for others we best serve our own inter
ests. "After dwelling upon man's de
pendence upon man . in. every walk of
Jlfe he passed on to the consideration of
the way in which men obtain honor.
In conclusion he advised them to aim
high and be patient. The speech was
an hour long and was intarsperfew ith
frequent applause. In the midlle of
his speech the speaker brought down
the house by saying that he had done a
great many mean things but had never
done anything so mean as to pronounce
Latin as it is pronounced nowadays."
'Altogether the speech was a splendid
effort of a vigorous and wide-awake
gentleman. No higher tribute can be
paid the distinguished speaker than to
say that while he was speaking no one
left the hall, although the exercises
lasted two hours. j

A spectator of the duel at Harrisburg
a few days ago, whI4h was mentioned
at length in these columns yesterday
sends us a few additional particulars
in regard to the affair. He says that
the pugilists took their stand, six feet
apart, when time was called and knock
ing began. In the first rund. lasting
four minutes. Mr Meares was knocked
down but was not hurt. Their seconds
raised them to their posts In the second
round Mr Hoffman was knocked down
and bruised to' some extent. In the
third and fourth rounds neither was
knocked down nor seriously damaged.
Their seconds called time for the fifth
round when Mr Hoffman was unable
to come to the mark. ; Mr Me'ars was at
his post ready for the fifth round when
Mr Hoffman cried out: "I am done and
will give it up." They then shook hands
and parted friendly. ,-.

The happy time has come when our
luminous faced fellow citizens, whose
proboeces shine like the under lip of a
turkey gobbler, either through a gift of
nature, or through a gift secured at the
price of ten cents for a . straight, may
rejoice in their luminosity, for in truth
red is now all . the style, even to red
noses. - Pale, languid men who cannot
get up enough color in . their faces to
give them a fashionable tint are- to be
pitied, so long as red is the rage. These
pleasant afternoons bring the ladles
out in full force and it is then that an
opportunity is presented to get an idea
ofhe extent of this red, red mania. A
gust of wind discloses an ankle fitted
with the reddest sort of hose, the gloves
are red, the sash red, and so is the jack
et. : Eight times out of. ten the hat is
red and the parasol is always red. One
of our dry goods bouses commenced the
season with 100 red parasols and 150
parasols of other colors, and now have
150 on hand, but they are all of the
other colors. .When a young lady walk

XXaJ. Biafaasa's Address at Davidson
CoUesre . -' :"Vvi'- .; t
Major Bobert Bingham, of ' the Bing
ham School, addressed the Y. M. C JL
and students ot Davidson College Mont
day evening. June 18th. on "The Physi
cal, Intellectual nd Moral Culture of
Man." This address, which was so
highly .praised when delivered at the
University of Virginia, fully justifies
all the nattering accounts we have
heard of Uv The critical audience at
Davidson, composed not only "of stu
dents, but also of trustees and profes
sorsjcould pass but favorable criticisms
upon, the lecture, in which the speaker
displayed great originality, and made a
fine impression. He was peculiarly apt
in bis illustrations and forcible in his
manner of : pressing a truth home.
Coming from such a practical man, the
lecture was eminently practical. .With
such an enterprising man to speak and
to work, for the cause of symmetrical
education. North Carolina has reason
to be proud, and the South can do no
better than by following the lead of
this "man of ideas." ," .;
Joaraeys of Twa Little Girls. . ;- -;J
; Mr. O. M. Sadler, of the Southern Ex
press Company, was in the city yester
day having in his charge two young
girls, 0 and 11 years old, who recently
arrived in this country from Brazil,
and np to yesterday hadibeen in charge
of a relative at Sock HilL The story of
their travels Is an interesting one.' Some
years ago a Mr. Schofield, of Summit
Hill, Pike county. Miss, went to South
America and settled in business. He
married and a few years afterwards his
wife died, leaving the two children on
his hands. . He was soon attacked by
consumption, and fearing to die there
and leave his children alone, he sold
out everything he had and bought them
tickets to this country and sent them
over here in charge of a friend. Their
grandfather. Bev. L. Schofield. an old
gentleman 70 years old, lives at Suav
mit Hill, Miss, and was anxious to have
the two children sent to him, but was
in a quandary as to how to proceed, as
they are so young to travel such a jour
ney alone. Mr. Schofield is a Mason
and through the Grand Master of the
Lodge at Jackson, Miss, opened com
munication with. Mr. M. J. O'Brien.
General Superintendent of the- South
ern Express Company, laying the case
before him. As a result. Mr. O'Brien
instructed Mr. T. D. Gillespie, the super
intendent, Who at once arranged for
their transportation to the old Missis
aippi homo. The children were taken
from here to Atlanta under the per
sonal care of Mr.' W. J. Cross well, and
from there they are to be sent on their
journey in charge of another specially
appointed agent, with instructions not
to leave them until they reach the
arms of their grandfather .The girls
are named Georgia Eunice and Edith
L. Schofield. and are bright, intelligent
children. This is one instance of the
benefits of Masonry, and one can hut
admire the action of a corporation that
interests itself in two little waifs and
cares so tenderly for them as the Ex
press Company did in this instance. .
