DEATHS.

Whereas it has pleased Almighty God, in
the dispensation of His Providence, to sum-
mon by death on the 28th of Oct. 1853, our
venerable and worthy Brother w. B. Wood,
late a member of this Division, in whose
death the Scotch Ireland Division, his Family,
the Church of which he was a ruling Elder,
and the vicinity in which he lived have sus-
tanned an irreparable loss.-Therefore
ReSOlUed, That while we bow with submits
sion to Him who gave and who hath taken
away" we do most unfeignedly sympathize
with the family and relatives of the deceased,
in their sore bereavement.
I'd. That in the death of Brother Wood,
this Division has lost one Of its most %cOnsis-
tent and devoted members. That the fdeli-
ty and ~punctuality which he uniformly man
ifested to our Division, are virtues esteemed
worthy of our emulation.
Resolutions for wearing the funeral badge
&C., were also adopted.

FOR THE SPIRIT OF THE AGE.

Mr.. EptroR | do not suppose there is q
county in the State Of North Carolina in
which there is more dissipation and drunk
cnness than in the county in which | reside
but Notwithstanding, prohibition is not ua-
popular. Ii is an acknowledged fact, that
alcoholic drinks are the common enemy to
the interest Of the souls and bodies of man
kind but owing to that force of habit, the
strength Of appetite, and the ~depravity Of
human nature, they are unable to resist the
temptation therefore moral suasion falls
powerlcss ut their feet. Seeing then, that
our fathers, brothers and friends are slaves
to habit and appetite, and are led captive at
its will, the question is, what means shall be
used 10 rescue them from n life of misery. a
drunkard's grave and q drunkard's hell?
| should not have written these lines had
! not been called on, last night, TO witness a
scene such rs results from q life of drunk
enness.
The last patient to which / have been call
ell was u young man of our town-a young
man, too, Of unusual strength Of mind, and
were it not for the prostratlng consequences
Of intcmperanee, might be one Of the bright
est members of the legal profession but
alas, he is miserably doomed to intemper-
ance. When | saw him he was laboring UNI
der u slight attack Of delirium tremens. Ills
nervous system was like q d~eranged machine
whose centre was all on fire, as his stomach
seemed to be. lie begged to die and raved
and lamented-and as more rational feelings
would be upon him, he would pray for a pro-
hibitory law, and VOW his determination to
vote for it.
| hope the day is not far distant when
things will be different, and | look with con-
fdcnce to the dawning Of u better day, when
through the instrumentality of the " Spirit
of the Age" and the spirit and patriotism O
the freemcn Of the old North State, we shall
be n redeemed people. l am looking TO mex
summer as the time when the scales will fal
from the eyes Of deceived and deluded men
when the position of designing demagoguei
will be rent as with q great earthquake
shock.
| may be called sanguine by some, but
do firmly believe we are upon the eve OF re
demption-the hour of delivcrance is in view
the haven Of rest is just before-thc time o
general peace is coming. Now, if men vii
20 to work with their sleeves rolled up, witt
n spirit Of determination, as men working
for life, resolving to meet freedom or death
battling against the enemy of all on
rights. no doubt but victory will turn upol
the side of temperance.
AS for myself, | have enlisted to do battl
while battling is to be done. Death or lib
erty, is my motto. We must do one of tw
things, fight for life, or fly as from a cit
threatened with obstruction.

months, all is beauty to the eye, and music

air so(tcns into balm and flowers in album
dance spring wherever we tread, and bloom
wherever we look. Amidst the burning
heat of summer, He expands the leaves,
and thickeus the shades. He spreads the
cooling arbuurs to receive us, and awakes
the gentle breeze to fan us. In Autumn, his
bounty covers the fields with a profusion of
nutrimental treasure, and bends the boughs
with loads or delicious fruit. But is it only
In these smiling periods Of the year, that

TN offering this School to the public, the Trus-
tees fatter themselves, that they have procured
the services of a gentleman, ~pre-eminently qualified
to direct it with ability. He comes we'll recon-
mended as a Teacher of the highest order a Grad
uate, capable of teaching a thorough course, pre-
paratory to entering the highest Glasses in the Uni
versity of North Carolina, and from the experience
he has acquired in teaching, he 1atteFs himself tina:
be will be able to give undoubted satisfaction.
There is now nearly completed in the Town of
Henderson, removed from the business Of the place,
one of the neatest Academies in the State, which
has been built by the patriotic citizens of the
place, bringing also TO their aid the friends of Ed
ucation round about, and that too at a heavy ex-
pense, and it would be suicidal in US as Trustees,
not to place it on the best footing.
The gentleman whose services we offer to the
public, is a native of Virginia, by birth and educa-
cation and therefore has feelings allied with our
own, as he wishes to make this permanently his
home, he would ask all who know him to aid in this
great work, the education of he heart as wen as the
head, and when this shall be done, he can have the
pleasing qualification of knowing that he has per-
formed the part of the philanthropist-the scholar.
Henderson presents one of the finest fields for
the encouragement of education in the State, COM
bining healt J., morality and intelligence. 1t has
also other advantages; it is easy of accesS-being
situated Immediately on the Raleigh and CASTOR
Rail Road also at the terminus of a branch of the
great Western Stage Line, ~affOrding to all who may
wish to patronize the School easy Of access.
The Scholastic year of this Institution is divided
into two Sessions of five months each. The Spring
Term to commence the first bfenaay in January,

day in July following, and at the close ofcach Term
there will be n public examination.
Board can be had in the Village &c country, as
may be desired, at usual rates.
No deduction for loss of time, except in casesof

ReSolced, That this Division has beheld,
with great modification, candidates, aspiring
to high Office, bartering spirituous liquors for
votes or, in other words, treating during the
electioneering campaign to gain Office thereby
greatly demoralizing the community and
condemned both by the letter and spirit Of
our laws.
Resolred, That we do heartily regret such a
course, and hereby express our entire disap
probation of such a practice.
ResolUed That the above resolutions bC

rs A child of mine showing symptoms of
worms, | gave it a bottle of Dr. M'Lane's Celebrated
Vermifuge, which brought away a bunch of worms,
numbering, l should judge, about thirty. The child
was very sick during the operation, but is now web
and hearty.
Mrs. Twist, No. Is Avenue D., writes under date
of August 10, 1852, and says she had been troubled
with worms for more than a rear, and that she took
one bottle of DR.. M'Lane's Celebrated Vermifuge,
which brought away from her over three hundred
worms, big and little. She now believes herself to
be entirely free from disease.
Mrs Buggins, a German woman, residing at 2O4
Rlvlngton street, says, that after using one vial OF
MLane's Celebrated Vermifuge, she passed two
large tape worms.
The above certificates are all from parties well
known in this city. IF there are any who doubt,
they have the names and addresses, and can satisfy
themselves by personal inquiry.

his Liver Pills, can now be had at all respectable
