found on the farm Of Mr.. Hodges Gal
lop, on Powell's Point, Currituck coun-
ty, N. C. The piece was found on the
surface, which led to an examination
of the locality, when a quarry was dis
covered. 1t has not yet been ascertain
ed whether it is large enough to be call
cd gold mine or not. The little ore
unearthed so far, however, has been
pronounced genuine.

GENERAL CANBY AND OUR CITIZENS.
We are pleased to learn, says the
Richmond Wing, that many of our clti-
zens have called on General Candy
since his arrival in the city, and that,
without exception, so far as we have
heard, they have been very favorably
impressed. The Generals appearance
and manner are highly prepossessing-
blending as they do the better types OF
the Virginia and Kentucky lineage and
breeding, of which he is the represen-
tative. His figure is tall and imposing,
ard his bearing easy, calm and cour-
teous ard there is no truth in physiog-
nomy if he be not 4 fair-minded, rea-
sonable, just aud honest man. We
hopa that his residence in Virginia may
be mutually agreeable to himself and
our people.

terday, according ito previous notice.
tho Odd Fellows of this city with their
invited guests, after marching through
the principal streets, repaired to the
Court street Baptist church, where the
preliminary exercises were gone through
with, in the order in which they were
published.
The address was delivered by Rev,
James E. Martin, who commenced by
giving the origin of Odd Fellowship;
which in 1919, in the city of Baltimore,
was established, and charter obtained;
this society was called by many secret
society, for the purpose of carrying out
that which would be antagonistlc to the
rules of Government; and the members
were excluded from society, but gradu-
ally tho prejudice wore off, and they
were looked upon as shining lights in
society, whose influence was felt as their
numbers increased; and to-day thous-
ands have their names enrolled upon
the lodges throughout the United States,
who swear that they will conform to
the laws that govern and control this
society, whose influence is felt in every
part Of the United States.
The stranger in city feels at loss
for friends, but the order of Odd Fellows
happily comes to their relief; they have
acted upon that idea, and have estab-
lished lodges in all parts of the United
States, to make second home for the
Odd Fellow, whilst absent from his first
loved spot. Although they cannot
make thelodge as happy aplace as home,
it 10 a great degree alleviates the loss OF
absent loved ones.
After the address was delivered the
choir sang piece appropriate to the
occasion, after which benediction was
pronounced by Brother Charles Petit.
The line of march was then taken
up and the band of Edward Wiersdorf
gave the admiring crowd beautiful
strains of music.
At 2 o'clock the whole line repaired
to the Ocean House, where a splendid
dinner had been gotten up under the
management of j. E. Stokes, who
knows his business to letter.
All being in readiness, grace was said
by j. D. Black, Patriarch of the Grand
Lodge of Virginia.
The signal being given, they with ye
local) made an attack upon sundry eat
abes, which all appeared to enjoy.
After dinner, toasts were proposed by
CIV. Grice, &C. of Portsmouth Lodge;
E. G. Robinson and G.. M. Hill, &. W.
M. of Norfolk, and others.
Once more the line was formed, and
the members of the Portsmouth Lodge
l
and members of the Encampment, by
invitation, accompanied their guests tc
Norfolk, where the Inequalities were
exchanged. We tender our thands tt
Prst Grand Master for his kind invita-
ton to partake of the supper given BY
the Lodge. Thus endeth the fiftietl
anniversary of Odd Fellowship.
ARRESTED. William Harris and G
Sawyer, negroes, arrested, charged with
waylaying, robbing, and killing Corne'
leus Hayes, and robbing j. d. Mirer
These offenders will be tried before the

FIRE SUNDAY NIGHT-On Sunday
night, about u O'Clock, the Section
House of the Norfolk and Petersburg
railroad, near Obendorte r's, a little be-
yond the Iron Bridge, was discovered to
be on fire. Every exertion to extin-
guish the flames proved unavailing, and
the building was totally consumed. AS
it was merely shed and contained but
a small quantity of road material, tie
loss, fortunately, was trlt1lng.
of fire on shovel were found
under the house, which is pretty good
evidence that it was the work of an in
cendiary, and that some one in that i'm
mediate vicinity, either accomplished,
or was party to the hellish deed. 1t
was a two story shed, in the top of
which slept the Section Master, Mr..
Cote. and five or six hands slept below;
the latter escaped without any difficulty
from the building, but the former mar
| rowly saved himself from being burnt
to death. When aroused from his sleep
he discovered that his room was fillec
with smoke, and it was sometime ere hi
found the door-the only avenue of es
cape. When he did, he was almost ex
hausted from suffocation, but, fortunate
ny escaped serious injury.
