DEATH OF THE DISTINGUISHED
SCULPTOR, N. CApPEAUX.

\ cable dispatch from Paris au-
ounces the death of jean Daptiste
Carpcau1, the French sculptor. NJ.
Carpcaux was born ut Vulcnciennes,
Nay Ii, 1927, and went 10 Paris TO
study sculpture under the best masters.
lie was the pupil Of Rude, Of Durcr and
Of Abel Pajol, and won fourteen medals.
lie also carried Of tho Roman prize in
1851. In 1859 he exhibited u bronze
statue, "Lo Jcune Pecheur," which i'll
dlcated the peculiar talent Of the artist
and his determination to avoid the
classical convcntiunalitics. Tho latter
disposition manifested ITSELF TO q still
greater degree in tho group
"Ugolin ct ses Enfants I" exhibited in
1863, which WINS purchased by the Gov
ernnent and n copy in bronze placed in
the garlen Of the Tuilcries.
In 1866 he was intrusted with the
decoration of the Pavilion do Flore,
at the Louvre, and executed a group
representing Imperial France bring
ing light into the world and protecting
agriculture aud science" In 1869 n
group, executed for tho facade of tho
new opera house, "Ln Danse," and
placed between the classic groups Of
NM. Joutfroy, Guillaume and Perrnud,
excited n lively controversy by its ~renlis-
tic IRE, and gained him M equal share
Of praise and adverse criticism. N,
Carpeaux threw aside tho traditions of
his art and tho laws of architecture,
md did not fear to create picturesque
effect at tho expense OF the general
harmony of the monument. He has
secured II OF the first places in the
ranks OF modern artists by his eminent
qualities and even by their excess,
The exquisite marble decorations nj
Chiselhurst, which adorn the grave of
Napoleon, were also designed and exc
cntcd by his genius; but the crowning
glory OF his fame is the royalty mngni-
iicent fountain III tho place de Luxem-
bourg, which he had but recently COM
plctcd, and in recognition Of an exalted
genius, coupled with n true devotion 10
France and her glory, the cross of the
LEGION OF Honor was conferred upon
him. lie had nobly earned the glorious
badge so fondly coveted by the sons OF
France and i'll his death he was not dis
appointed
The gentleman referred 10 in the
above cable dispatch is an elder brother
10 our old time and esteemed friend f.
j. CarpeauI, Of Railroad District, in
this county, and We all sincerely mourli
with him ill his sal bereavement. The
loss TO the nrt world and to France
must be well nigh irrepairablo by the
death OF such an eminent and distin-
gnished sculptor as ". Carpenux.

"GwINE FUR TO JINE THE BAND. :"


The other night Fayetteville gen.
tleman was greatly disturbed by a
dismal hewling in his kitchen which
he first supposed was the sad refrain
of some low-spirited tom-cat dying
with the bronchitis. Tracing up the
noise, he found it proceeded from an
old negro woman who was rocking
back ward and forward in chair,
singing as vociferously as her feeble
lungs would allow.
"What are you doing, Amt Peggy p
exclaimed the irate Fayettevillain.
''I'm singing of hime, honey"
"The ID you are, what 'hime' are

In Carolina forest of thousand
acres you can scarcely find a tree that
is not dead and crumbling to decay.
No fire has swept over it, no light
ming scathed those naked, bleaching
pines. This ruin was wrought by a
little insects larvie, no larger than q
grain of rice. What hundred axe
men could not accomplish by years of
hard labor, this seemingly insignifi-
cant insect sent its feeble offspring to
perform. One alone could haye little
power, but millions were marshaled,
and all the skill of man could not stay
their course. zmrz IA esa- 2rE7

over an anonymous signature in = London

It's sailing am at the dawn of the day
To my brother that's over the sea;
But it's little I'll care for my life anywhere
For it's breaking my heart will be-
But . treasure take for ould Ireiand's sake.
That Ill prize all I'm taking above:
It's . handful OF earth from the land OF my
birth
From the heart of the land that 1 love.
And won't the poor lad in his exile be glad,
When he sees the brave present bring?
And won't there be flowers from this treasure
oil ours,
In the warmth of the beautiful springi
Och, Erin Machreei though it's parting we be.
It's blessing I'll leave on your shore.
And your mountains and streams will see in
my dreams,
Till cross to my country once moreI

WHEN paint has an old, dingy look.
take flannel cloth, dampen it and ap-
ply as much first quality Spanish
whiting as will adhere to it and rub
the paint. But little rubbing will be
required to remove all dirt and grease.
Rinse thoroughly with pure water and
then rub dry with soft cloth. Paint
thus cleaned looks like new, and does
not receive any injury as from soap
suds. This process of cleaning is
good one to perform before laying
varnish over old paint.

OBJECTIONS TO SPRING.

Kin you tell me why potes and
peanut sellers, and filOsophers and
fools and ministers and "musclcmen,"
and lawyers and loafers, and doctors
and dry goods clerks, men, wimen and
children, ct ceterer and so forth, all go
in with sich a rush for spring? Cos
if you kin tell me, blamed if l
wouldn't like to know. I've been a.
thinkin' this ere subject oyer for some
time, and I've come to the conclusion
that Spring is jist the meanest season
in the whole year. She is the deceiv
inest critter ever was. She is every
thing by turns and nothing long. She
blows hot and cold with the same
mouth all the time. The most favora-
BILE thing that can be said of her is
that she is little green and q great
blower, and that, judgin' from the
standard of human nature, ought to
be a positive disadvantage. Her
principle productions is rumatiz, fever
and ager, consumption. and cold in the
head. A feller don't know halt the
time whether to wear his overcOat or
go in his shirt-sleeves. 1 amt been
able to do anything at legitimate bus
mess since Spring sot in. It's took all
my time to blow my probosis, and I've
had to keep both hands a-gein at that.
Ny face is like piece of raw beef
steak, and I'm Altered shall commit
an involuntary suicide by blowin' my
brains out through my nsstrils. If l
do happen to ketch spare mint oc-
casionally, I'm obleeged to fill up my
time by sneezin', coughing, or shakin'
with ager. I've shook all the hair off
O. my head, and I've been brought
down SO fine in flesh that l think
somethin' of exhibitin' myself st the
museum for livIn skeleton. / havn't
felt any of Springs balmy breezes, or
sighin' zeffyrs, or health-givin' odors
Il haven't seen any of her lapful of
flowers, or her singin' birds, sich as
we read about-nary oneI Her balmy
breezes has been cold, easterly winds !;
her sighin' zeffyrs shrill key-hole mu-
sic her latin streams, nasty, drizzly,
chilly rains her health-g giving odors,
the steam from manure heaps her lap
full of flowers, few miserable white
things that locked frightened to death
for havin come into the world before
their time; her singin' birds, lot of
half-drowned, wretched loOkiH' barn
yard fowls. L do hate any halfway
business. alters likes to have either
one thing or the other, out and out,
1 never see mcan-spirited, vacillatin'
half-determined sort of a man, who
tells YOU he will do a certain thing
one minute and then do something
directly contrary the next, but wot l
think his name orter be Spring. 1
never see tickle, changeable, unprin-
cipled cokwet but l think her name
ought to be Flora. I'm down onto
Spring. She roasts us, she soaks us,
she shivers us, and she burns US up
with fever, and finally and to conclude
she starves Us to death, for she never
brings anything to eat with her. She
gives US the very worst taters that we
have the whole year round, and this
alone, if she wasn't guilty of any
thing else, would be enough to set me
agin her teetotally. Once more 1
say Pm down onto Spring.-Es.
