Rockingham, the county seat of
Richmond county, was laid off into
town on the 10Th of July, 1888, by
John Cole and Henry VIM. Harring.
ton. commissioners appointed for that
purpose. The old deeds in the keeis-
ter's Office show that about that time
ali she deeds for land we're signed by
Richard Oaswell, first Governor of the
Ssxte under the Constitution, and
lead US to believe that the country
was but sparcely settled. It had
formerly been included in the large
county of Arson.
Rockingham is now just eigthy-eight
years old. It contains 9 dry >goods
stores, 2 drug stores. 2 hotels, 2 news
paper Offices, cotton factories, 1 tin
shop, 3 churches, 2 schools, 4 preach
ers, 4 doctors, lawyers, 6 grog-shops
and barber shop. about 900 inhabi>
tsnts, noisy flock of goats, and quite
a number of struggling hogs and
COWS. By far the noisiest and
most impudent Of all the inhabi-
tants is noted billy-goat who is con-
tinually displaying his antics and
odoriferous ueliness in the streets, to
the great annoyance of the ladies and
visitors who come into the business
part of the town.
[ arrived here on last Friday just in
time to witness a game of base ball
between the Monroe and Rockingham
clubs. The weather was very warm
and the base ball gfound, the Acade-
my green, was warm. The game
lasted till about 2 O'Clock, when the
Monroe Club came out victorious.
On Friday ] learned that the Demo-
Gratis held one of the largest and most
enthusiastic conventions ever held in
the county. Many old men, who had
taken no interest in politics for years,
were out to seIe ct straight out Dem

ABBorTsBURG, N. c., Aug. %.
MIR. EDIToR:-I ask the favor
through your valuable and widely cir
culated paper of making a suggestion
in regard to our candidate for member
of the General Assembly from Bladen.
There are several estimable gentlemen
spoken of, such as Robert J. McEwen,
Esq. Mr.. N. A. Stedman, O. @. Lyon,
and Major T. D. Love, Jr', who are
popular in their various localities, but
the people of Brown MARSH where Mr..
Clark resides), Abbottsburg and Blad-
enboro townships all::demand the NOM
nation of Jno. H. Clark, Esq, of
Clarkton. This partiality for Mr. Clark
ought to say, Is not by any means
canfined to these townships, but Is
equally strong in all the townships
south of the Cape Fear, where Mr..
Clark is best known; and indeed among
all thinking men all over the county
there is q desire for his nomination.
This general demand for Mr.. Clark
to represent US in the General Assem-
bly, is in consequence of his high per-
4onal and business character. which Is
recognized by all who know him.
It is not too much to say that in all
social, personal and business relations
NO man in Bladen county is held in
higher consideration by the people OF
both parties than John H. Clark. and
what il worthy of consideration is that
his large family, social and business
position render him 80 strong in the
county that he will almost certainly
be elected. VOx POPULI.

Very respectfully,
JOHN ". ELLIS.
As will be seen above. the boys own
statement leaves no doubt as to the
relation that existed between him and
his negro master Hill. His concluding
declaration, if it was his own honest
sentiments, would be sufficient to show
to what degradation his servitude had
brought him. The fact is undeniable.
that for years in our midst, white
boy has been under charge of negro.
Under the old Constitution no such
outrage could have occurred; that 1t Is
possible now is because We live under
the Candy Constitution. Hill is
a magistrate and candidate for
the Legislature. The boys mother
died on a Saturday; on the Monday
following he was taken by a straPpine
negro and carried before Radical
Judge Of Probate and turned over tc
his tender merc4es, and the result Is
that the negro has the boys property
and that the boy gloves" the negro ano
his wife aud regards them as his bes
friends ! ..... f...a. .... ......- -..s. ....-
Is it any wonder that white mer
hate the Candy Constitution when i
permits such outrages I? Is it an.
wonder that white men look with g
much repugnance and abhorrenc
mon Radicalism and it's fruits whel
such things as these can occur In
