necessary to say now whether or not we
thought the former justifiable, though we
think it proper to say we consider the lat
ter the only course consistent with oul
own honor or the welfare of our children,
and to say further that from this brief re-
ference to the past, We are borne out in the
assertion that upon the issue of the right
or the wrong education-so to speak-oi
their children, the people of North Caro-
lima have manifested determination fixed
and unwavering. The Radicals them
selves have learned to appreciate the fixed
ness of this determination and have be-
come convinced that their only hope for
carrying this, our last stronghold. is by
bribery. To this end they propose by the
use of money from the Public Treasury to
support both students and professors, and
thus to bride and buy those whom hard
poverty excludes from other places of edu-
cation. We think they will fail here also.
Our people are not all Rodmans, or Pear
sons, or Reades, or Settles or Pools.

MEMORIAL CELEBRATIoN-THE CoNFED.
ERATE DEAD IN OAKDALE CEMETERY.-Yes-
terday all honor was paid to the Confeder-
ate dead who lie buried in Oakdale Gene
terry. under the auspices of the Ladies Me-
mortal Association. The anniversary of the
death Of the immortal "Stonewall Jack
son was celebrated by visitation to the
graves of our glorious Confederate dead,
and the populace turned out to lay their
annual offering of fresh, pure flowers and
the immortal laurel upon the spot which
marks their last resting place.
At the appointed hour the procession
was formed in front of the school room in
rear of ST. James Church. The cadets OF
the Cape Fear Academy under Gen. r. E.
Colston, appeared in the ever-to-be-r emem-
bered grey, and led off, heading the pro-
cession with drum and fife in regular mil
itary order, each cadet bearing upon his
musket a wreath of evergreen
Then followed the Orator and Chaplain
of the occasion, and large number of
children with wreaths of evergreens and
flowers, and then the citizens. This solemn
procession wended its way to Oakdale, to
that last resting plase of the immortal
dead, where no tattoo lulled them to their
slumbers no bugle notes will ever for
them sound again the reveille. Where
