ers and sisters and many devoted friends to mourn
his early fall. But they mourn not az those Whs
have no hope, for his happy exit afforded them the
joyful anticipation of meeting him again, clothed
in the h~abiliments Of Immortality, in the Kingdom
of God. The Division Of which he was an active
efficient member, paid a just tribute to his memory,
in the passage of the following Resolutions:
Resoired, That We cherish with fond but melan-
chOly recollection the many amisble qualities which
adorned the character of our lament,d brother /;
who, by his upright conduct as a citizen, his exem-
plary walk rs a Son of Temperance, and his deVe-
ted piety, had secured the confidence and esteem Of
the whole community in which he lived.
Resotred, That while We mourn this affective dis.
pensation of Providence, we calmly submit to ths
righteous will of that Almighty Sovereign Whs has
spoken all things into existence.
Resotrcd, That we deeply sympathise with the
reslatives of our late brother, in their bereavsmsni
and sore attic ion, and respectfully tender them ~
assurance of our friendship and protection.
Resolutions were also adopted for wearing the
usual badge of mourning for thirty days and fol
transmitting a copy of these Resolutions to the AZ

Tobacco Sales in Milton.

1t affords us pleasure at all times to make
a favorable record of the advantages of any
of our home markets. Too many Of our peo-
pie are disposed to believe they can get better
prices for their produce in Towns ont of the
State than any in it. It's a great mistake,
and after q while they will get to believe it.
Let them 60 farther, at greater expense, un-
til they learn wisdom. In Milton, last week,
we learn from the Chronicle, one thousand
pounds of fine manufactured Tobacco (be-
longing to Capt. Tkps. Hatchell of Caswei.l
was sold at S25 per hundred; and the same
paper says:
1--WE hear of q number of crops in the coun-
ty having been purchased by our Manutactu-
rers at Sl5-$I4 and $l2 cash. The fact is,
the Planter can do as we'll here with his To-
baccO rs he can ut most any other market
Good Tobacco will command good prices
Holders of the mean article cannot expect to
get big prices. Lugs have been selling here
at 3 and four dollars, for some time-good
Tugs. Other qualities go off at from So to
SIS and S25-according to quality.
Tobacco now in demand, particularly good
leaf and Tugs.
p. S. Since the above was put in type a
considerable quantity Of Tobacco has poured
in from Caswell, Person, Orange and Gran.
Vile counties, and we are gratifed to learr
that every seller left here delighted with hii
sales. We overheard a Planter from Person
yesterday, Dragging on the result ofhis sale.
he said that he rot 50 IS for his tobacco
which, we inferred, was 81 IS more than h
expected to get for Tobacco of the quality h
put in market. Planters, now is your time

"Alas for the salvation of my infatuated
husband and the protection OF my CARING
boys, if the Rum-fend is yet longer to run
riot, scathing and blasting the cherished
and loved objects of the defenceless wife and
doting mother" Such was the ejaculation
of depressed, worse than widowed, wife and
mother, on learning that the Legislature of
the State had adjourned without commisser-
ating, and doing something to relieve, the
helpless condition of woman from the raya-
ges of the liquor traffic. Hers is indeed a
melancholy case-born to ease and af1uence,
nursed in the lap of purity and piety, educa-
ted with all the a~dornments and exceilen-
Rcies of polIahed attainmenfAshe is reduced
to the howell of Indulgence and degradation,
with the oath of the bes0tted grating upon
her car daily, and the rude, obscene Jest and
oath shocking and crushing her refined and
cultivated spirit. Oh! the anguish of that
hOur when she heard that the lar was still
to be a protector of the destroyer, instead of
a defence for the misguided and innocent.
And as | beheld the disconsolate, helpless
grief of the detected one before me, | could
but respond-Yes, stricken one, the cause of
virtue, of justice and humanity, has vet a
while longer to stem the opposition of legis-
lation, and bear the reproaches of men depu-
ted to make laws for the protection of the
weak and innocent, and for the punishment
of vice and crime. Legislators of North Car.
DINA ! have you discharged your duty, in the
fear OF God, TO your country, to injured inno-
%cencc, to suffering, deprayed humanity p
Look ye we'll to the answer ye shall give
here, and in a coming day.
Despair not, dropping Mothcr-he tina
disgraces the name of Husband, may fall {
sacrifice to the bloody Moloch-but teact
those uncontaminated spirits that cluster a
round your desolated hearth, to hate and alb
hhor tho demon, and by theif help, ifthe pres
cnt generation prove craven to the task, "
the young Americas of the rising stock vii
drive the demon from our midst and leayl
him not a hiding place in all the land.

oOhSSON fILLE, 1uAIlDci ititO w.
The cause Of Temperance is in q flourish
ing condition about here now. w haveshad
several very respectable acceseio1s to our
Division lately, and the flood of iquor with
which we were cursed is fast subsiding. The
most notable den has entirely suspended OPP
erations, and the proprietor Of another has
not found Unnecessary to recruit his last years
stock. True, there is still some drinking
done, but since it has become ~disreputable,
it is generally concealed as much as possible.
There was less dissipation last Christmas
than ever was known in this neighborhood,
notwithstanding one Of our Magistrates and
one Of our Elders suffered considerably from
spreeing "Oh! Shame, where is thy blush!"
A Magistrate and an Elder suffering from in
toxication and they were the only cases /
knew of. Some of our churchman arc stern
ly opposed to the Sons, and | think they do
a great deal for the devil in thus promoting
his cause for, if the liquor traffic was
entirely done away with, the devil could new
er invent another scheme by which to ac-
complish his ends so we'll. That the traffic
in intoxicating drinks is a c%unningly devised
scheme fold Satan's to catch immolt tai souls,
there cannot be the shadow of a doubt the
v~eriest drunkard on earth believes it in his
heart, and what surprises me most is. that
ministers OF the Gospel can be found giving
aid and comfort to this enemy. But it is 3
melancholy fact that some Of them openly op
pose and denounce us as fanatics, while 9th.
ers stand aloof and you can't tell by then
conversation, which side they would take IL
the final issue. But | hope they will al
come out on the right side, and then | ex
pect to see Old North Carolina rouse up from
her lethargy and shake off the fotters of il
temperance which bind her down.

that having accepted the position Of Chief
Engineer oflhe Neuse Navigation Company,
he understood duties were required Of him
Incompatible with the Office he held in the
Neuse River Company. The Wilmington
Herald expresses the opinion that $50 00O
more will be subscribed by Wilmington. and
$4,000 by the Directors, thus securing the
appropriation Of $1,000 900 by the State
The salary Of the President is Increased to
8, 600, and he is required to devote his
whole time to the work !; and " assistant

SALEM, N. u, Jan. Y, 1898.
Mr.. EDITOR In yourinteresting paper of
the 10th is q communication signed "A Ca
Diet" referring to the Indifference Of the mem
bers Of the Order Of Sons of Temperance to-
wards the Cadets, and appealing to the Sons
to be aroused to the Importance other much
neglected duty rs regards their concern for
our youthful Order.
1t Is not my purpose to attempt to add a
syllable to the words of the synonymous broth
er but desire to bear witness to that part
that his communication expresses the senti-
ments Of the Cadets Of many a Section in our
State, and to renew the appeal in their be-
half.
1t needs no further argument than has al
ready been advanced, to establish the fact of
the almost entire dependence of the Order of
Sons for the future, upon our own association.
| presume, at least, that therei is no one who
will for a moment doubt that the Cadets form
one Of the strongest guards ofthe Sons, which
any Order or association whatever, can pos
sibly point to.
But the Cadets are mainly dependent upon
the Sens for encouragement and support
Without it, q Section cannot flourish, and II
will inevitably fail.
No Section can have more to complain OF
in this respect than that of which I am a
member. 1t is not a matter of surprise" tc
us here, at the Indifference displayed by the
Sons towards us,-for that has become as il
werea fixed fact; and were it not for the con
descending mercy Of flew, our Section woult
long ere now have died a very natural death
But we hope for better things. We would
call upon Sons of temperance here and ever,
where, in the name of morality and reform
and for the sake of the principles Of their higl
and noble cause, to,look we'll to the futur,
prospects of both-to lend us a helping hand
see US on the high road of prosperity, ~enlivel
our dropping spirits, and cheer us onward il
the great and good work; and they will new
er have cause to regret their steps towards tn
accomplishment of this desirable object.
