card, in which he says:
'The attention Of the Centennial
Board of Finance has been called to
certain advertisements published in

pectus Of q so.called centennial sub

of these advertisements having been

An lnaumotsnt Plea.

Senator Gain touched veH gingerly,
as We supposed, upon his own part In
the Edge6eld drama, in re-issuing to
TennApt the State arms which bad
been given up. We understood him
to excuse this unwarrauted action, by
saying that other oompauies had arms,
and, therefore, Tsnpant's should. A
poor reason oertainly. but bett-r than
another which he is said to have
made. We fiud hun rsported as hav.
ing said: "Whsn Ned Tennant came
to me with his statement. I gave him
back his arms. because he said he
needed them for protection" This is
an asowal on the part of militia
colonel OF "a right to judge in so seri-
Gus an exigenoy as existed in Edge.

captain had right to nse the arms OF

From n gentleman who arrived Ia Au-
gnsta Thursday morning, from tho

gentleman from this city who went to

turned about 8 o'clock Thursday af-

been made tor Tennant and his mill

and me mbsr OF the Masonic fraternity
Of New. York city. passed through

by his wife and daughter. aud under
MasO nio TempIar :eeoort from Rich.

oity., Monday night, under the follow
ing > cirou instances, he was travelling
through North Carolina, byiraiI, being
then in full heafth, and fell asleep in
one OF the seats 0f the car: He was
awakened by chilly sensation, and
found two ;windowspp one on eaoh
side Of bin. aud the bitter cold night
air was streaming in upon him. BY
the side Of one of the open Windows
was seated q young woman, who had
apparently been moving from one
window to. the other. Mr.. Gilbert
never recovered from his chill. He
took to his bed in Riohmond, and died
before his wife aud daughter could
reach his bedside. This is indeed q
sadly suggestive illustration Of the
great neglect of amenities among rail.

about the prospective decay of the

dsciine. Let him remember his tri-
umphs of old; lot him recall how he
roustioated the web.footed voters of
the Pee Dee Swamp in the last cleo

him refresh his inspiration by the last

peaohment that the Governor is his
objective punt. Well. We'hlIot insist

largest sale of this com % odity ever

what can be done in that limo in this
section. Tho twine made at the fac

said TO be superior to any other, aud
is consequently in demand. In fact,
the demand for everything msnufac.
