as a means of correction for vagrants
and trifling criminals. " Every week the
Mayor has before him a class of offen
ders upon whom no punishment can be
inflicted except imprisonment, and that
is too severe for' the offence.. They are

At Squire Hill s court, on Monday,
one Mary Williams (col.) was brought
, ,up for vagrancy. She was strong and
healthy, aboutj 17 yara, old, and cqn-J
f essed that she was guilty and had never
done a day's work in her life. U.nd her
case was a sample of nine others who
v. ere before the same Justice this week.
In these cases the excuse of '.'no work
to do" can not' be g'ivent for the farms

ment to even' the women and children
for the greater part of the year; Cotton

TheEx'efciseis on yesterday lacked
6me of the spirit and enthusiasm shown
f'ln Some former occasions. We were
prebent in 1879 ;when Hon. A. M, Wad-
dellf delivered the address: and the
military contrast between then arid now
is very striking, On that day Eiheton
was repieseuieu uy iniiiy-siX; rmes
Goldsboro with a well drilled company
and NfV Berne wth two fuU companies
the whole Mv Idly? recfalliiug tne tune's
of real war. Yebtejdayt not uniform
was visible aiid the only incident sug
gestive of battle was the tattered battle
flag of the 43th Begimeht in the hands
of Cf:t, ICE. Joneaof the, 27th Regi:

lua well enough that such a change
should occur. While the memories of
the fallen oona of our State should be
honored and"' their graves decorated on
stated occasions, it is sensible "to be will
pig to-folget tlie causes of the struggle
and to'abandon those things that are
uggestive of a divided nation. 1
j The programme of Exercises was car
tied out jabout as heretofore published
in the JotJRNAL"and the "two noticeable
features of the Exercises were the vocal
music ana tne aaaress. . The singing
was exceedingly sweet, the voices of
Mrs. McLean' and Mrs. Kilburn leading
With, remarkable power and purity of
tone.

i:en. -.in. jong b yqice not suited to
6ut-dooi- u9,-and he suffers some in
that respect, by ; comparison with
trained: speakers. But his thoughts and
language come out inj rich ; profusion,
and he.-possesses all the graces of orato
ry save deliverery . . His address should
be read to be appreciated.
As the speaker progressed with hio
theme we could but make a comparison
with Mr. Waddell's, addreso in 1879,
which we thought then, and so stated
in the Journal, to be a master piece of
oratory. To-day the address came like
the waters of a sparkling brook glit
tering and effervescing; then it was as the
flow of the -quiet and peaceful river.
To-day it was a choice and fragrant bo-
quet of rare exotics, rich in color and
reaoient witn a sweet odor.tnen it was
a collection of natures lilies and roses.
Simply arrangedand -reflecting innate
beauty. To-day it was as drinking rare
old Chion wine; then, clear cold water
brewed in Natures vast , reservoir.. They
were totally different types of oratory
each possessing many attractions.
An Old Battle Flag; , ; J
Mr. Howland of Beaufort, brought
Up to the Memorial Services the old
battle flag of the 48th N. C. Troops. It
is all tattered and torn by minnie balls,
and it bears 1 the name of many hard
fought battlefields. Sharpsbursg, Frted
ericksburg,' Frasers Farm, Harper's
Ferry and Bi fetoe Station are. to be seen
there, but none of those of the campaign
of 1864-r4he: hardest during the' war
were to be seen. During that campaign
Cooke'n Brigade, to which the 48th be
longed, never yielded an inch of ground
while in a contest with the enemy, but
always drove the enemy or held their
own.
; In looking on this old s relic, still re:
vered . by those who., followed it, in
stances in Its history" flash through the
memory in rapid succession. Though it
is well dotted with the names of impor
tant battlefields, yet it does not mention
others where the writer knows ,it, or its
successor did wave. The Wilderness
SpotsylvaniaT Gary's Farm, Cold Har
bor Ream's Station and Hatcher's Run
are not there, but the old veterans who
followed that old flag will never forget
those places. We are reminded too of
several ; incidents in the life of the Col
of this regiment, S. H. WalkUp. After
the fight at BriRtoe Station in which
Gen. Cooke, was wounded and his brig
ade terribly cut to pieces, the command
of the brigade fell upon Col. Walkup
Of the 48th. A short time after he as
sumed command a soldier of his brigade
was court martialed for desertion, found
guilty and iShot. " The army regnlations
required the commander of a brigade
to give a condemned soldier seven day's
notice of the sentence of the court
This Col. Walkup forgot until two days
before the unfortunate man was tied to
a stake and shot to death. , For this neg
lect of duty the Col. himself was court
martialed and the eentenee of the court
was that he should be relieved of his
command for three months. In coriver
sation with some of the officers of, the
brigade about the sentence the Col.: re
marked: "I think it mightyjhard that
I should be suspended for three months
for not giving one man seven day's no
tice that he had to die while Gen. Hill
had three hundred killed the other day
at Bristoe' Station without a moment's
warning, and no' charges are preferred
against him." Geri. Lee 'reprimanded
the Col. for neglecting So solemn a duty
and revoked the sentence of the court.
Col. Walkup was very awkward in
mjahce.uverlng troops but he was noted
for his cool bravery. The battle of the
Wilderness which began the; 5th of May
18C4, was opened on the right hy Cooke's
and Kirkland V brigades., The . 46th
and 15th, of Cooke's brigade were on
the right of the public, road while the
27th and 48th rested on the left. s Dur
ing the whole of that memorable evening
Col. Wakup stood erect and urged his
men, who were! all loading and firing in
lying position, to give it to 'em I give it
to 'em 1 1 And at night when the battle
was being talked over some one reported
that the 15th and 46th after being re
lieVedY late ill WWe'ning' by McGow:
an's and other brigades,- retired in some
confusion.' CoL' Walkup promptly res
ponded. "Gentlemen the 27th and 48th
regiments when they, were relieved,
arose to their feet, right faced, filed

Newton flourishes. It has enterprise.
Since the beginning of the year it has
seen estblished within its limits a cotton
factory, a cigar- factory and a hat fac
tory. The latter is to be a branch of one
of the largest establishments of Newark,
New Jersey. That is what we like to
see. We want Northern men to begin
their operations here and lead the way.
There must be in the hands of the
Eeople any quantity of capital capable of
eing turned into such channels. But the
way is new to them. They have no ex
perience. All they want is to be in
structed and then they will push their
own fortunes. And it is these little
industries that we most desire. First
the acorn and then the oak; the small
industries and then the larger. We
bught to manufacture here at home all
pf our wearing apparel, all of our home
iitensib; our stoves, wagons, furniture
and materials used in buildings; our
railroad cars, engines, etc., etc. Let
the beginning be small; the business
will grow. We may plant now; the
harvest will come in season. Our popu
lation is steadily increasing, our towns
growing. In 1870 we had but one mil
lion to supply; in 1890 we will have two
millions, and perhaps before 1900 North
Carolina may bear on her bosom a popu
lation' of three millions, whose wants
are to be supplied. Those who enter the
field now and start business operations
on a small scale will, before thev are
aware of it, find a demand for all they
?1 1 - It i 4..
can possioiy manuracture, and those
who occupy the field earlyj will reap a
rich harvest. Neics and Observer.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
THE CHIEF OF THE DISTRICT TRIUMVIRATE
dead auiteau s appeal to-day
the Garfield memorial hospital
FAIR.
Washington, May 9, 1882.
No death, since that of the late Presi
dent, has caused more sorrow in Wash
ington than of Major Twining, Presi
dent of the Board of Commissioners for
the District of Columbia. You know,
perhaps, that the District of Columbia
and the Territory of Alaska are the only
despotisms over which the stars and
stripes wave. All the other States and
Territories, whether composed of rail
roads or ranches, have a representative
government. That is, the railroads and
ranches vote. The District of Columbia,
though partaking of both the nature of
a railroad and a ranch, cannot vote.
No citizen of Washington can exercise
this sovereign right or rite. But Wash
ington has been all the . happier and
cleaner for the deprivation of the ballot
box. If it had been in her power to se
lect a governor, aristocrat, autocrat or
Democrat, she would have not have se
lected one so wise, honest and able as
Major Twining. He .came to take charge
of the improvements of the National
Capital at a time when there was great
dissatisfaction on account of the dilatory
and uncertain manner in which great
contracts tor improvements had been
given out and performed during the
four years that followed the removal of
the Board ot Public Works. He soon
showed that he was master of the situ
ation, and quietly, impressed upon his
two associates the force of his ability.
There are three District Commissioners,
but Napoleon the First was not more the
head of the government when ruled by
the triumvirate, Bonaparte, Seyes and
Camberces, than waa Major Twining
the autocrat in the matter of District im
provements. He had none of the arro
gant supercilousness that usually at
taches to a west rointer placed in an
important civil position. He was cour
teous and kind to those under him, and
at the meeting of the District employees
on Saturday tears attested the genuine
ness of their sorrow at the loss of the
Commissioner. His death is regarded
by property owners as a real calamity,
and much anxiety is felt in relation to
the appointment of his successor.
To-day the appeal ot Uuiteau to the
Court in banc will be heard. The Chief
Justice is desirous that a full bench,
with the exception of Judge Cox who
is prohibited by law from sitting on a
case originally tried by him shall sit
on this appeal. But Judge Wylie 's time
is so completely taken up with the Star
Route caes that he will not be able to
leave court. Four Judges, Carter,
James, Hagner and McArthur, will, at
all events, occupy the bench. The Gov
ernment will be represented by Messrs.
Corkhill and Davidge, while Mr. Charles
Reed, of Chicago, will appear for Gui
teau. The National Ladies' Aid Society of
the Garfield Memorial Hospital, held a
fair in the rotunda of the Capitol last
Saturday evening, the object of which
was to raise money for the proposed hos
pital. The fair was attended by the
President and by the elite ot Washing
ton official, diplomatic and social cir
cles. Many of the different States
were represented by distinctive booths
or pavilions, from which chicken salad,
coffee, deviled crabs, etc., were sold by
the fair maids and maidens at fabulous
prices. It is not yet known how much
was realized, but it is supposed that the
tund tor tne hospital was considerably
increased. :

of sueh days as any other place, at least.
