.Adraace IN North Carolina Land.-A
correspondent of the Petersburg (Ya.) Ex-
press writing from Iredell county N. c.,
says:
Rapid changes have been going on in this
part of our State for the last few years.
Ten and fifteen years ago, land sold in this
county from so cents to 81 per acre. Now
it is worth from so to $50, and some sells
even as high as $75 per acre. Our inter
nal Improvements, together with the inn
proyements in agriculture have been main
ly instrumental in producing this change.
Political Suit.-A. W. Darden, of Hart
ford county, n. c., recently sued John A.
Anderson and others for $4,000 damages
for libel, for publishing in the MurfresbOrO'
Gazette, the cause which led to plaintiffs

Jury gave him one dollars and fifty cents
damages.

The Scarcity Of Niniaers-Thoughtful
Christians are alarmed at the rapid falling
off of the number of candidates for the
Ministry. DR.. McCosh, of the Belfast Col
lege, says that the annual number Of can
didates from the Irish Presbyterian Church,
in the FIVE years ending 1916, was forty
seven; in the five years ending 1857, it
was only thirteen. In Scotland, too, tie
same fact is noted, and it is attributed, in
no small degree, to the inadequate salaries
given to clergymen, many Of whose families
are in a state of restitution. In the Free
Church of Scotland an earnest effort is to
be made to secure from the General Sus-
tentation Fund an everage salary of $3.50
for the pastors of the smallest churches.

1t is painful thing to announce the death
of those who have been cut down in the
very spring time of life, with the bright pic
ture of hope and happiness painted out be-
fore them, but it makes no difference how
bright and glowing the picture of our future
happiness may be, when the summons comes
we must obey the stern command, and hap
py are we if we are ready to depart and be
with Christ, where we shall see him as he
is, which is far better than to remain in this
world of sin and sorrow. Such we believe
was the case with her to whose memory we
pay this humble tribute of respect. When
the summons came she was ready to &C
forth with her lamp trimmed and brightly
burning to meet the Bridegroom at his
coming.
She was remarkable from her childhood
for evenness of disposition and kindness o.
heart, she never murmured or spoke harsh
ly to any one, she was affectionate and ODE
dent to her parents, kind and afectionatt
to her brothers and sisters, she was beloved
and esteemed by all who knew her, she
followed the counsel Of the wise man anc
remembered her Creator in the days of hel
youth, and in 1853 she embraced the reli
gion of Jesus Christ, and united herself tc
the Presbyterian church, at Namozine, IL
Amelia county, Va, in which she lived al
acceptable member until called to join thu
church triumphant in heaven, where doubt
less she is now singing the sweet songs tina
angels sing. During her illness which wa
protracted to six or eight weeks, she suffered
great deal, but bore her Suferings Will
patience and Christian fortitude, being re
signed to the will Of God;. she spoke Of hel
departure to her mother, and told her she
should soon leave her and go to rest, Hnc
that she must meet her IN heaven. Sire lin
