is to be erected as rapidly az possible.
SAYS the LnteUigemcer. That is the
right way. MANY a town would grow
into a city if the residents would give IL
a start nv erecting a good hotel, and
churches. Wadesboro is also building a
hotel and McF arlan's wants me-.

Well, a-many good wishes, indeed.
We are very much gratitied to learn
that the Raleigh Cemetery Association
has recently paid one of its largest
notes-given for the purchase of the
grounds. This is the result of prudent
and economical management on the
part of past administrations. The re-
naming debt is not very large. and
Judging from the past II cannot be long
before it is entirely wiped out. Mr.. r,
| III. Battle, the President of the AssO.
citation. is making noble efforts to &C.
complish this. and when freed from
debt, lakewood Cemetery will be i'm.
proved and made the most beautiful
burial ground III the State.
We call attention of our readers tC
the advertisement of the Raleigh Cotton
Gin Company which appears in thi.
issue. From the information before u.
taken from certificates given by som
of the most prominent farmers i'll thi.
and other counties. We a safely re
commend their gins to be ali the com
pany claim for them. In conversation
with the Secretary we gather from hin
that the company is yet i'll its infancy
being only two years old; but notwith'
standing that, together with the short
ness OF the cotton crop in many local.
| ties in the State, the last two seasons the
company has met with an unprecedenteC
success outstripsin. their most ~sanguint
expectations. The recent improvements
attached to their machines, being Of
their own invention and said to be the
best eve attached to a gin.
We are advocates of home e. ~terlrises
and all things being equal. ad, sc otr
friends to make their purchases of home
institutions. The company have repair
shops where gins OF every make are re-
paired upon short notice.
