If there is any one evil with which
this country seems pre-eminently ours
ed with, it is an insane desire on the
part of great many of our people
to become suddenly rich. Notwith-
standing the scriptural warnings or
the every day lessons taught by the
fall of those who, in their insane de-
sire for wealth, have become utterly
bankrupt in pocket and principal,
the desire for suddenly accumulat-
ING a large share of this worlds
goods continues. Every catch-penny
enterprise that promises a large re-
turn for the investment of few dol
lars, is eagerly sought after. Thons.
ands of dollars are annually invested
in lotteries from Halifax county
alone. The hard earnings Of the
laborer, the savings of the clerk, the
surplus Of the well.to.do man all
go to swell The grand total. Is it
not time to cry a halt ? We think
so. A number of those taking a
chance in lottery ticket would be
Mortified if they were accused OF
gambling, and yet many of them are
ashamed to let it be known, hoping
that a lucky turn in fortunes wheel
will bring money enough to quiet
conscience and the voice of censure.
We confess that we see very little
difference, morally speaking, between
the old fashioned game of cards, the
modern three card monte, and "a
chance" in the lottery drawing, and
if continually followed will lead to
ruin. We have laws in our statute
against gambling and dealing in lot
teries, but they seem to be Disregard
ed, or so fromed as to amount to
utilities. We hope that they will be
amended at the next meeting of the
Legislature so as to meet. the evils
now existing.
Since writing the foregoing we clip
the following telegram, pertinent to
the question under consideration, and
which we hope will accomplish much
good:
POSTMASTER General Gresham to.
day forwarded to the postmasters at
New Orleans and New York copies
of his decision in the lottery case, to.
gether with letter directing those
postmasters to discontinue the deliv-
cry of money-orders or registered
packages to agents of the Louisiana
Lottery Company"

SCOTLAND NECK.

Ours is beautiful town, ana IL Is
a most pleasant place to live. me
plan or plat of the town approaches
perfection. The principal streets
run from North to South at a dis
lance of four numbered feet from one
another-these are intersected at
every four hundred feet by cross
streets, thus dividing the town into
blocks of about four acres each.
Main street, with row of trees on
each side walk and row on the cen.
ire walk, is one inbred feet wide.
Though in its infancy, our people
have reason to be proud of the
growth of the place. The population
is near q thousand, and the town is
steadily advancing, The citizens are
courteous, hospitable, energetic, and
progressive. They endeavor to keep
pace with the world in all things
that tends to enlighten and instruct.
Her male and female schools are an
ornament to the State, and the young
of both sexes can be thoroughly
equipped here for any of the practi.
. cal duties of life.
The Methodists, Baptists, Episco.
palians, and Primitive Baptists
have churches here, and the Presby-
terians have one close by.
The town is upon a water shed,
we may say. Our doctors say that
no part of North Carolina is healthier
Several valuable mineral springs are
near by. The people are intelligent.
orderly, and peaceably inclined; as
an evidence, there were less than
twenty five violations of law brought
to the notice of the mayor during
the last year.
The town is surrounded by one Of
the finest agricultural countries in
the South. Going towards the river
as you near the large plantations
you feel as if you were approaching
new world. AS far as the eye car
reach, nothing save vast extent Of
magnificent arabic and pasture lane
is to be seen. The song of the plow
man, as he tills the soil the rounde
lays of the hooking bird the thrilling
notes of the partridge; the fine cat
tie grazing in the pastures tn,
splendid crops, all these make ,
scene that is inspiring and elevating
On whatever side you approach til
town you will see rich lands.
