Even the most imlifforent perusal
of North Carolina exchanges will
convince tho reader that the circus
is the leading topic of local interest.
While tho Charlotto Observer as
it claims is not 'controverting,"
yet it.kceps carrying a chip around
on its shoulder and invites someono
to knock it off.
If the Raleigh tfeiva-Obnerver's
"specials" from other counties of
the State have as little basis as those
it credits from Craven county, its
"outrage" news editor ought to bo
put on the retired list.
CHARLES A. SANA, SHAD.
"Charles Anderson Dana, Editor
of the Sun, died yesterday after
noon." Nothing could be more character
istic of the late great editor of tho
New York Sun, than tho above
brief notice which appeared at tho
head of the editorial columns of the
Monday issue of tho Sun.
As in life, so in death, Charles A.
Dana did thinks differently from
other men, and instead of turned
rules in his paper, with extended
comments of the press, and hun
dreds of letters and telegrams from
mourning; friends, a sentence of ton
words said it all,
Mr. Dana was a great editor in
the way that he mado bis paper re
flect his own individuality, for in
every column of the Sun is exhibited
the unmistakable finger and thought
of Dana.
There was always too much Dana
in the Sun for that paper to be con
sidered a political power, in fact to
have the Sun ou the sido ot a can
didate was regarded as a certaiu
hoodoo.
Nothing could be more erratic
than Mr. Dana's political course;
against Crant, favoring Greely:
against Hancock, favoring Butler,
and championing Tammany II all
and Tweedism.
Throughout the war, Mr. Dana
was held in very high esteem and
favor by President Lincoln, and yet
probably every succeeding President
has received a scoring fro.n his
keen pen.
In the newspaper work of the
Sun, Mr. Dana was ever resource
ful, and made its columns readable
to a large class ot readers who took
took his paper for its news matter,
while the had no sympathy for its
position on political and national
questions.
There can be no question that Mr.
Dana made a distinct impression on
the journalism of his time, elevating
it and showing by his grand com
mand of the Kuglith language, that
simple plain words had more
Strength in them, than the vulgar
isms and slang tco current in the
editorial columns of the press today.
In his moral cm rage Mr. Dana
stod unquestioned, and his thor
ough Americanism was sincere and
hearty, no matter what political par
ty he might advocate.
Ia his death, as during his TS
years of life, Mr. Dana continued to
simply represent himself, and with
him passed a rugged journalism of
individuality and character, which
will not again be seen in journalistic
fields.

Tho Lost Qneno
The story is told that there has
recently died in tho East End of
London an old gentleman (a cente
narian) who is locally reported to be
the lust person in England to wear
that curious fashion of headdress
common in George Ill's time, a
"pigtail."
With his ttieor little queue of
white hair, nattily tied behind with
a knot of blue ribbon, his corded
knee breeches ami low buckle shoes,
a largo flowered waistcoat down to
his hips, and plum-colored open
coat that showed tho big frilled
shirt and tight stock, the old man
was a picturesque featuro amid
squalid surroundings.
lie had been considered quite a
dandy in his youth. He was very
vain of his tail, and often prided
himself, in his weak, quavering
voice, of being "the only gentleman
left that was dressed as a real gen
tleman should be."
His sole regret was that he was
obliged to have h is hair braided by
others, when his own hands grew
too feeble to perform '.he duty; but
to the very hist he always chose his
own particular tint of hair rib
bon, a certain "correct' shade of
dark indigo blue. Pearson's Week-
