IS the Southern Presbyterian ' General Assembly last Saturday a ' resolution was offered severely con demning the Louisiana Lottery. ' This was not necessary as declara tive of, Presbyterian sentament, but to emphasize the position of the Church on that subjeot. ' Birmingham Alabama has been selected as the place for the next meeting of the Southern Baptist Convention, and also for the next meeting of the Southern Presby- terian General Assembly. This is an appropriate compliment to the , central city of the New South. It must be pleasing to noble na tures to see tbe interest taken by Northern men in the ceremonies that will be observed in Richmond, at the unveiling of the Btatne of Gen. Lee, on the 29th instant. The Northman at last - feels as much pride in the military genius of Lee and Jackson as the Southerner does in the achievements of Grant and "McClellan. . Thb Programme for Commence ment at the State University is an attractive one, and we confess that no part of it is more pleasing to as than that which announces that Dr. T. B. Kingsbury will speak at tbe Alumni Banquet -in response to the toast: "Tbe Press of the State." The press could not have a better representative, nor the ocoasion be graced by a more knightly gentle man. IT is gratifying to know that in all the exciting scenes that have transpired daring the present Con gress tbe Democratic Representa tives of North Carolina bare stood by their colors.- Fortunately for the State they are men of integrity, courage and intelligence, who com mand the respeotful consideration of their fellow members. They are wedded to honor, and. nothing can divorce, them. Mr. Tucker, of Virginia, having offered and, advocated an amend ment Abolishing the tax on tobacco, Mri iMcKlnley, in opposing Mr. TuckerV amendment, said, 'The committee on Ways and Means had noi entirely abolished the tar on tobacco, first, because the conn try needed the money and, secondly, because It was not necessary to abolish it In order to preserve in tact the great protective system of the Bepublican ,arty.": ; What is this hat an admission that' ."the great protection system" is dearer to the Republican party than the ,. liberties of ihe people! EvBBT thing that concerns "the Davis Family" Is of interest to oar ' - peopled Mrs. Jefferson Davis, in a ; letter t gojoneim,; Hj Soss, of " MaoQnGa., writes:. VJNOt that you ,r have nob probably J heard it., bat ; ' my kind' regard for yon causes me to ahnonnoe my daughter's engage- ' meat to Mr. Arrred ,WUktoson 'of ' SyracusN ' : , couple ilia've every chance of happl- l : ness together,; my hnsbatid knew and liked him, and appreciated that a regard which had existed 5 nearly foot years' could not bevnprooteI. , Send your good wishes for her as she sails on bet retarn; home on the :i0thof May. I Jxoped ' to join , her , 'I, there; bnt find Ioannotdo so. ; . Thkbb are abundant profcheoies " of good for the farmers.'; The sugar; , beat Ui';ittraeting.ani(l - give! promise of greatly increased prominence in the future: the fibre of the cotton stalk is said to be the beat material from which cotton bagging, can be made, and soon we are to have oil from corn. An ex change says: Oil from corn is one of the latest products which modern science every now and then throws upon tbe world. The maize, which is now grown in the United States at the rate of some 2,000,000,000 bushels per year, has been experi mented with and fonnd capable of yeilding per cent, of its weight in oil, the germ of tbe kernel beiDg the part from which the oil is ex tracted. The new material is of a pale yellow color, somewhat thicker than either the olive or cotton-seed oil, and does not seem to be readily avilaole as a substitute for them, but it is well adapted for lubricating purposes, and may bo used as a salad dressing, while it seems to be adaptable for liniments.

No serious damage was done. The deck railing was broken and the corner of tbe cabin torn away. Yesterday a little daughter of Mr. J.W. Traylor was returning home from school and in passing Mr. Thomas Gaskill's a dog ran out and bit her. When Mr, GaBkill heard of the unfortunate cir oumstanoe he sent the dog to Mr. Tray lor to be killed. We sympathize deeply with the little girl, and hope that she wiil soon recover. Tho conduct of Mr. Gaskill in the matter is praiseworthy Beginning next Saturday a truck train will be ran daily, except Sunday, on the Atlantio and North, Carolina railroad. A. & N.

Southgate and Mrs. Port lock, of Norfolk, are in the city, baring come over on the steamer Manteo, which arrived yesterday morning. Quarters for Veterans Who Go to Richmond. As it is probable that a good many veterans will go from this locality to Richmond to attend the unveiling of tbe Lee Monument, we copy from the Dispatch information about getting quarters in the city: "The committee from Lee Camp ap pointed to procure quarters and feed alt organized veteran associations have secured the following places for that purpose: No. 1213 Main street, first floor, will be used as a restaurant; the upper floors for lodgings. "No. 1303 Main street; restaurant on the first floor; upper part for lodgings. "No. 1311 Main street, restaurant. "The committee has also secured the three upper floors of No. 1009 Main street. Steam's block, the Old-Market Hall, the old Tobacco Exohange, Medi cal College of Virginia, and Bishop Van de Vyver has tendered the committee the use of Cathedral Hall if it should be needed." Free Sites and Free Transportation. Elizabeth City is making the right elorts to become a permanent oyster canning centre. A correspondent of the Norfolk Landmark says: "Mr. C. C. Allen, proprietor of the press brick yards and owner of the cottago farm, has authorized us to say that he will give free sites for as many oyster packing firms as desire to looate here, and if necessary will transport their stock free to the railroad station. The cottage farm is just outside the city limits, and has a beautiful water front of more than three-quarters of a mile. The smell arising from oyster houses make them objectionable, and it is more than probable that the author! ties will move them from the heart of the town in time to come, as they have done in other cities. By accepting the proposition or Mr. U. B. Thompson, Capt. Sam. Waters Allen and others, who have authorized us to make offer of free Bites, and by following the example of oyster packers who have already been here and looated sites on the outskirts of town where they will work next Winter, all trouble in this line will be avoided if it should ever arise. To be sure nothing has been said officially so far, but private in dividuals who live in the neighborhood of these paoking houses complain of the smell, though they are too enter prising to enter any thing like a kick." The Mecklenburg Declaration of In dependence. Charlotte, N. C, May 20. The 115th anniversary of the Mecklenburg Deola ration of Independence was celebrated here today. Senator Vance waa the orator of the day. In his speech he said every aggrieved class seeking redress should be cartful not to let redress be turned into revenge. Governor Fowle and State Auditor Sanderlin also spoke. The finest trades parade ever eeen in this city was made by the local mer chants, assisted by four military com panies and nine fire companies. There were four entries for the mili tary prize drill: The Raleigh Gover nor's (iuard, Wilmington Light Infan try, Monroe Light Infantry, and the Charlotte Hornet's Nest Riflemen. The Wilmington company won the first prize of $200. Charlotte the seoond of $100, and Monroe the third of $25. The firemen prize contest and band contests will take place tomorrow. The State Fireman's Association is in see eion here. In Respect. Whereas, It has pleased the Great Architect of the Universe to remove from us our late brother, Alpneus W. Wood, who was born July 13th, 1854 and who died in San Antonio, Texas, on the third day of May, 1899; and whereas, it is but just that there should be a fitting recognition of his many virtues, therefore, be it Resolved, That in the death of A. W. Wood this lodge laments the loss of a brother who was ever ready to proffer the hand of aid and the voiee of sym pathy to the needy and . distressed of the fraternity.

Rileigh News and Observer: Four teen bicycles for the Raleigh Biiycle Club arrived here yesterday consigned to Mr. Will Wynne. The dress parade will come off shortly. Raleigh Progressive Farmer: A Reidsville doctor is making fame by writing a book entitled, "Tbe History of the Grip in North Carolina."" A Smithfield colored man is in jil charged with selling meat from a hog that had died a natural death. Wilmington Star: A dispatch from Washington, D. C, says that the resig nation of Col. W- P. Canaday, Sergeant- at-Arms of the U. S. Senate, will prob ably not be presented until May 20, and will take effect July 1st. The an nouncement of the postponement has brought out a big crop of aspirants. Greensboro Workman: Our reporter, while "prospecting" in Randolph coun ty for old people, some days ugo, was told of a certain old lady, Mrs. Fox, of whom it was ascertained that she could jump into a wagon and drive off in a trot standing up, and preserve her balance as well as any young man could do. And Mrs. Fox is 90 years old, or close thereabout. Wilmington Messenger: A gentlemen who has just been through Mississippi is quoted in an interview in the Char lotte Chronicle as saying: "At Vicks burg I met a negro man from North Carolina who used to drive a stage from Louisburg to Franklinton, and whom I knew. He told me that one of the levees breaking killed seventy negroes from North Carolina. Those who were not drowned starved to death in the trees in which they fled for refuge. The ground had been perfect ly dry the night before when they re tired. If I lived in that country I should never go to sleep without a boat being changed to my bed." Stonewall Items. There was one fight in front of the court house on Monday between one Williamson and a MdGowan. No dam' age done. Xbe prevalent belief is that court week is always a wet one, and this one did not falsify the prevailing idea. We were full wet when court came, and got sun wetter atter its arrival on Monday. There was a severe and destructive hail storm passed below here about nine miles, which did considerable damage to the orops of C. A. Flowers, Jno. Moore, and all in the immediate neigh borhood; and tho wet in our section has added quite an amount of work for the farmers. The Irish potato crop bids fair to be a big yield. Some have dug, and there will be a good lot shipped next week if there is any means of shipping. Where is the lahomai' Echo answers where! We surely are in need of some reliable means of transportation? M. Hahan bad a runaway after court adjourned. His horse took fright at some hogs running under him and took a boust around among the crowd. No damage, only ridding the buggy of its top, upsetting S. J. Lane's buggy, and oausing a small amount of excitement and curiosity. Our court was convened on Monday at 11 o'clock, Judge Whitaker preeid ing, and on Tuesday evening at t O'ciock it was adjourned, having ex hausted the docket; and I can truth tuny say mat no rudge that has pre sided at one of our courts has given more satisfaction than Judge Whitaker. There was but one word of complaint and that was because the Judge failed to convene the court until 11 o'clock, and held the court until past 8 o'clock at night on a frivolous suit of four dol lars damages, to the detriment of all who had to be at home to attend to their own interests, for it was evident that there was no necessity, as there was but a small amount of business and none pressing, as there was not a single criminal in our jail nor a single State case of much importance. It was the opinion that it was solely for the conve nience of the Judge to get home, no difference who was inconvenienced No cases of public interest were on the docket. What Englishmen .Say of R. E. Lee, Invitations were sent to several die tinguiehed men in Europe asking them to come to the unveiling ef the Lee statue, but, as was expected, the great distance will probably preclude any of them from visiting luchmond on tha occasion . Two of those who were invited have responded to the invitations, and while they cannot be here they speak of Gen oral Lee as the very highest type of manhood. AN OFFICER'S OPINION. Lieutenant-General Feemantle, of the department of tbe Adjutant-General for auxiliary foroes, writes to the Gov ernor from London under., the date of May vtn aa follows: I am extremely flattered by the in vitation which has been sent me to at tend at the unveiling of General Lee statue at Richmond, Va. I regret yery mucnmai my omoiai duties will pre vent my being able to attend at a oere mony of so interesting a description. shall always regard General Lee as the greatest and best man I ever had the good fortune to meet." WOULD LIKE TO HONOR HIM, Colonel L. Lanoliffe writes to Gov ernor McKlnney from Wortley Hall Bnemeia, May luth, the following: "I have received through Mr. Frank Lawley the invitation to be present at roe . unveiling or a monument to Gen Robert Edward Lee afRichmond. Va, on Thursday, May 29th, and I request vou. sir, to believe me when I say that I felt highly honored, by the reoeipt of that Invitation from one in' your high poi It ion. Were la younger man, and therefore probably more unencumbered than I am with duties and engagements of various characters, I might be able to profit by the kind ness extended to me, I am afraid that it is quite impossible for me to spare the time required for a journey and voyage to Virginia and back, and I am therefore reluctantly compelled, to decline the invitation. It would have been a sinoere pleasure to me to do as much honor as possible to the memory of bo great a general and so good a man as General R. E. Lee. Sunday School Picnic. The Sunday School of the Church of Christ, Hancock street, will picnic at Pollokaville Friday, leaving on steamer rent, foot of Craven street, at 8 'clock, a. m.
