IN the State. We learn there are several other
openings for Divisions in our vicinity, and hope
therefore, soon to announce old Wake as the
Banner County of the State.

Producing the most costly and highly approved
apparatus for making a first rate article; aAd
though hardly under way, and subject to aIEth
inccnVeniences arising from the proper under
standing and management Of vast, complicated
steam machinery, yet their paper is of a very
superior quality, fully equalIing the paper gen,
orally sent froA the North. When they ret
fully to work, they intend to supply their Gus
toners with as good an article, and at as. cheap
rates, as itcan be purchased in the United States,
We are the 6rm advocates Of home industry
and Southern enterprise, and we trust the. gem
tsmanly ~prspnstors of these Bfls, viii be ex-
tensively ~PatrOnised and amply remaneratedfor
the heavy outlays they have made in pupcAas-

the State, with an article which cannot fail to
please, whether needed for book, job or news
paper purposes.

STATE OF THE D

We haye just received a copy of the journal
of Proceeaings of the National Division at It's
9TH annual session. From the Statistical Re-
port Of Che NJ. w. s., We find the total number
of Grand Divisions lobe So whole number of
Subordinates, $3.50 and the contributing mum
bers reported, Pa, 1888. The report is not COM
plete in this respect, owing to the returns from
some Grand Divisions not having been receiv-
ed If all were IN, the whole number would
probably be about 275,ooo. The deaths during
the year in this large membership, were only
2s01l, or not far from one death in each 1900
members-a fact without any parallel probably
in the records of human health.
The general average of mortality in the most
favorable situations, is about one death in eve.
ry forty-6ve of pOpulation-or more than 20 in
every 1900. 1t is true the Order has some
advantages over general society; such as moi
including young children and persons known
to be diseased; but after considering all this
the small number Of deaths is surprising, and
speaks volumes in praise of the temperance anC
other good principles Of our Order.
