For fifty years or more there has stood at the coiner of Crayen and Pol lok streets a faithful sentinel, guarding the children in their innocent amuse' ments, the wearied laborers, the over worked business man, the matron and the maid from the scorching rays of the summers sun. Beneath its sheltering boughs the old North Carolina Bank was builtused and torn away ; around its rotun body has passed the gay and fashion :iblo of the city in search of the latest styles of dry goods and most attractive ornaments over which it kept silent watch. Across the Btreet it has witnessed the anxious messenger sent for remedies heeded to alleviate suffering mortals, and the nervous approach to the postoflice of those who might receive tho draped envelope so much dreaded and yet so eagerly sought. Just beyond, it had been the silent observer of tho building of the old church and also seen the devouring flames leap up the spire and the build ing reduced to a mere wreck. It had been present here at tho rebuilding of the edifice, heard again the sound of the bell calling tho devout to. prayers and sinners to repentance, had seeu once more the spire lifted up and pointing heavenward. It had seen the devout pass in at the doors as well as those of other motives and with each returning spring spread ont its genial shade to the sporting youth and braced its form to support the ever faithful lounger. . Bnt alas 1 decay had taken hold on its stalwart form and crept stealthily to its uttermost branches and man, thoughtful, grateful, man, came in tho spirit 'of mercy and put an end to its vigils, felled it to the ground and con veyed from the sight of mortals forever THE OLD ELM ON THE BARK CORNER.

It is said not one woman in ten knows how to wrap a newspaper for mailing or can fill an application for a money oruer Women have too often been compared tonowers; there will always be this an- terence between them; when the flower is beautiful it kno ws nothing of it, ir we were the creator or man, we would make a race of people who would understand their own business as well as they do the affairs of their neighbors. Our cautious mayor advertises that the June days have come and that the dog collars are ready. All dogs "that wisn to be saved" are warned that sal vation comes only from the mayor's collar. The nomination of Blaine and Logan is encouraging. A big foreign war is just what the country wants. There are too many who want office and wish to vote. The population needs a little winning out.

Mr. Coburn, the telegraph operator at Dr. Ward's,' came very near losing his life a few days ago. He started across Brown's Inlet with Mr. A. Redd, his assistant, when the boat sprung aleak, and having nothing to stop the leak, Mr. C. was compelled to use his clothing, which he did, and finally got ashore about midnight. we are living in a thriving com munity now. Plenty of vegetables, both tame and wild; huckleberries and briarberries in abundance. Miss Waroy and sister, Annie T. LI., went out only a little way from the house and picked about a naif bushel huckleberries in a very short time. I reckon they eat some, too, from the way their mouths looked. Some sickness among us now. Mr. L. Watson is very sick, and Mrs. George Freshwater is not expected to live long One death in our midst: Mr. W. Aman, son of Rev. D. J. Aman, died of dropsy of the heart last week, aged la years, He was a good boy and leaves a great many friends. We heard a good ser mon by his father at Ward's Mill Church last Sunday.

Owing to the great difficulty hereto fore experienced in getting enough del egates together to hold a Convention in the Second Congressional District, the State Executive Committee at its last session suggested that the counties. when selecting delegates to. the State Convention, might also elect Congres sional delegates to meet at Raleigh the 2ulh.oi June, for the purpose of com pleting the organization made necessary by reason of the reaistricting the state. There seems to be some misunderstand ing as to the purpose of the Committee; I, therefore, as chairman of the old Sec ond District, request the delegates of the new beconi District to meet in conven tion at Weldon on Wednesday, June 18, 1884. -.. --. , A.
