Thiscommnnity mourns the death
of Major John Hnghes, who died
at iSeaufbrr, Monday morning Sept.
9tS.1889 in the 60th year of his
John Hughes was no ordinary
mark In the home circle, in society,
and in the Church, he was a pillar,
firm and unyielding.
1 Is not lor us to portray his
excellencies, but ve must chronicle
SQtne of the events ur bis life evin
cing his. character and showing the
estimation in which he was .held by
bis oiuinlrymen.
Mafor1 BaehflS was a niulva of
New Be'rue, but, in early life he
moyedto. Pennsylvania where he
sa jmm8ed himself upon the peo-
bpte of his adopted State as to re
ceive irom the WhigB, of the dis
trict in which he lived, a nomina
tion for Congress He bore
himself gallantly in the campaign
and won plaudits from all parties.
He was not elected but he greatly
reduced the Democratic majority
in the district. Not long after this
sectional issues precipitated the
war between the States, and John
Hnghes returned to North Caro-
ina to share the fortunes of her
people. He early enlisted in the
army of the Confederacy and did
efficient service on the staff of Gen
eral Hoke. After the war he ad
dressed himself to affairs of peace
with sagacity and energy. In 1372
he was nominated by the North
Carolina Democracy for Lieuten
ant Governor, on the ticket
with Judge Augustns S. Merri-
mon, and it is no reflection
upon the distinguished men with
Whom he was associated to say that
he led the ticket in that memora
ble contest.
In 1384 he was again brought
forward for nomination for the
same office, but his friends having
united his fortunes with those of
Octavious Coke for Governor, he
was defeated by the Scales and
ternah combination.
For atwejnty , one, . years, Major
Hnghes was President of the First
Rational Babk of New Berne, and
uriBjfnis presiuency me d&uhl
prospered more' than any 'other
similar Institution in the State.
rltt 1877 SndT878, during Gover
nor Vance's administration Major
Hughes was President of the A. &
N. O. Eailroad company.
But whatever may be said of
Major Hughes' public life, it was
in society and in the church that
he wat most potential. The influence
of himself and family in giving tone
to society is not to be exaggerated,
and his Wise council will be held in
grateful remembrance by the chnrch
for years to come. He represented
his ; diocese in the General Con
vention of the chnrch for many
consecutive sessions, and was al
ways .distinguished lor conserva
tism and influence. John Hnghes
has gone to his. reward. Peace to
his ashes 1 ' ,

Blind Staggers.
Dr. F. L. Kilborne, of Washington
City, has been in New Berne and sur
rounding country for two days, but has
not examined any diseased stock. It
is reported that there are sereral cases
of staggers in Pamlico, but none were
brought up for examination-
In conversation with him last, night
he gave us the following prescription
To prevent staggers, i oz. aloes, i oz,
podophyllum and 1 oz. ginger in half
pint of water; give it to the horse
once in 86 hours. For a horse that has
an attack of staggers double the dose
above every 86 hours. Horses that have
staggers should be given loose diet.
We advise the people in communities
where the disease exists to try this rem
edy on their horses.
