RE1Dsv1LLE, n. c., Jan. 10, 1884.
-Snow-bound, is my excuse for re-
naming here, but there is some doubts
as to the truth Of the matter. Some
times pleasant people have an infiu-
with ones going out and coming in.
Yes, Major Sloan, when I was a little
chit of child, used to stand on the
outside ofa candy store and my mouth
would water at the good things in sight
and my determination was, that on
reaching maturity, l would own one.
Now the banks has untold charms for
me, with its safes of wealth. No won
der you look hale, hearty, and happy.
The bank has subscribed for the SEN
TINEL and one must feel that they
have friend in the bank if there is
no chance for our money to lay idle in
its capacious safes (for we haven't
much on hand,) but when we get it,
Off we ever do) right here it lands, if
there is any room for US. Here is the
fountain head of all business, free as
grace, and just as desirable to some.
The business done here is marvellous
and in good hands.
Williams & Hopkins, subscribers to
our SENTINEL who stands ready to
say good and truthful things about
its friends, lead in the mercan-
tile line They have commo-
dious room in the Ray block, and
keep everything from needle to the
most elegant suit Of clothes to be found
in Reidsville. Mr.. Robt Williams is
one of the best and busiest men one
most ever sees. His motto is to ac-
commodate his customers no matter
how much work it takes.
John Waynick follows ON our list
of subscribers and he keeps the incest
candy and confeetioneries the girls
ever did eat Our Winston friends
must give him a call this summer
when they visit Reidsville and they
will find ice-cream fit for a queen,
made by his mother. Soda water fit
for Prince Albert or Oscar Wilde, and
last but not least, see the biggest stick
Of striped candy in this world, in a
show case, behind which stands
blooming little maiden, ready to deal
out her wares IN the most pleasant
and affable style.
Now for Courts and Andrews, the
leading warehouse men in Reidsville.
They have joined our band Of sub
scribers and we always take care of
the interests of all who are in our care.
Doctor Courts sits like a Solomon on
his throne, giving every good old
farmer hearty good welcome and if
one should happen to mash his hand,
stump his toe, or have the tooth ache,
why he is ON hand and cures all in
minutes time Capt. Andrews is a
busy little soul, that makes tobacco
sell well, and who hands out the cash
to his patrons with pleasantness that
they all carry home and love to think
OF, as they go digging through the
long tobacco rows during the working
season OF the year. RAMBLER.

He Thinks of Winston
(SpeciaL Cozrespondence of The Scnsinel.l

Especial Correspondence Of the Sentnel)
SUNNcooK, n. H., Jan. Is, 1884,
In travelling through North Carolina
there are many things to instruct and
amuse Northern man. Taking the
road from Weldon to Raleigh there
are quite number of towns of impor-
tance in their speeialties. Henderson
and Oxford for their Tobaccoo, &c.
Cotton also is a prominent feature all
the way through as far as Charlotte
with a good wooded country in pine
and other varieties, which, at the pres
ent time, are being worked up into
useful articles and shipped.
Returning to Raleigh, by way of
Hamlet, we find considerable manufac-
turing being done along the route. Cot
ton cloths are being made and other
industries beginning to show them
selves and ere long, with a little push
and enterprise, the effect will be motto
ed, both at home and abroad.
At Durham We find large Tobacco
warehouses in full operation, with 9TH
ers partly completed; also, the raw
material is worked up into cigarettes,
&c, on an extensive scale, and con-
siderable building is going on.
Next comes Company Shops with
cotton mills, and hosiery mill MAX
ing regular ladies and gents stockings.
At this spoint we find hotel With
home comforts, bird dinners, &c.
A short ride brings us to Greensboro,
a thrifty place with handle factories,
sash and blind factories, &c. At this
point we branch off and 90 to Win
ston and Salem, two towns in one,
where the monotony is broken, and
here we find symptoms of thrift and
enterprise developed to remarkable
extent, with remarkable climate and
cordial welcome to those who come for
pleasure, health or business. At some
future time l will give my impression
of Winston and Salem in special
letter. j. WILKES.

A BREEZY LETTER FROM HIGH
POINT.
Bits of Information and Some Interest

Especial Correspondence Of The Septinel)
HIGH POINT, n. c., Jan. Il, 1884.
-Seborn Perry, in this town of 1900
inhabitants, has built no less than fif-
teen substantial stores and residences,
many of them being the largest and
finest in the place. He is also the or
iginal progenitor of that magnificent
hostelry, Jarrell's Hotel This build
ing is memorable for several facts.
Gen. Leach once chopped out whiskey
with hatchet in it. Gov. Jarvis
spoke and DR.. Worth was robbed in
it. Jim Boyd, the handsomest and
best dressed politician in the State,
has drank champagne and held bob
tail hushes'' in it, and. at times Shed
Hill calls around. The Greensboro
lawyers and Trinity boys have made
it their headquarters for years, and
that settles it. The most remarkable
characteristic OF this noble pile is that
no two rooms are the same size, or on
tho same level 1t is covered with
tin, sheet iron, shingles and slate 1t
has rs rooms, is 800 feet long, has 400
feet Of piazzas and is managed by the
heartiest host in North Carolina, NJ
FARRELL, ESQ, and whenever a man
stops with him, he will feel at home in
five minutes and be assured of perfect
attention in every respect.
And, by the way, speaking Of Jim
Boyd, causes me to think Of our dear
old friend, Geo. B. Everett, who for a
short time Of starvation and ready
cash, was resident Of "fersythe," az
Reuben Coltrane calls it. | asked
one Of the most prominent politicians
in North Carolina the other day, what
he thought Of Everett. "Well, young
feller, [ think he had more good
clothes and more cuss words, than any
young man I ever knew"
We are sorry to learn that that
handsome and genial gentleman, Lor-
EMO Mendenhall, was so unfortunate
as to get his leg broke by the kick of
a mule, a short time ago. Lorenzo is
sadly missed in High Point, as his
visit to US was God send in the way
of a local, the afore said mule invara-
bly, acting as only a mule can, upon
the approach of Railroad car
The most wonderful thing about our
beautiful town, is that it is a matter Of
utter impossibility to get even short
without paying for it-yet it is said
that nine retail liquor dealers license
are on record in the Collectors ofico
as having been sent here.
Mr.. Gilmer, formerly of your city,
is succeeding finely as hoteIist.
Trinity College has seventythree
students and more coming.
Bush Hill High School has seventy
pupils and nearly half of them are
boarders.
Stock law failed here. Too much
gate. C.

A violent ring at the door and the
doctor poked his head out of an up

whats wanted?"
"For PHYS sake make haste" came
back the answer. "It's q case of lie

you are wanted at the house immedi-
ately."
The doctor closed the window, and
in about fifteen minutes later saunter-
ed leisurely out of the front door and
said:
"Ah, Simpson, your wife has anoth-
er fainting spell, ! suppose"
'No, no; worse than that, it's her
little dog, her pet poodle. s'c~ all

"Whatr' shouted the now alarmed

your wife wouldn't live week"
And the two men dashed madly up

The breeziest thing out is the at
tempt of certain papers which are pub
lished in counties which give all the
way from 1000 to 5000 Republican
majority, to force certain policy on
the great Democratic party Of North
Carolina, and it is not surprising to
see them getting from this to debating
who the party shall and who it shall
not nominate for this, that and the
other office.

The Tariff Wrecker of Parties Since 1924.

From Simon cameron's Political "reminiscences.
1t is curious to witness how the old
party refuses to learn wisdom from the
expensive lessons of the past. There
is an old saying that experience keeps
a dear school, but some folks will learn
in no other. This adage applies to the
political folly of the Democracy in
thus reviving issues hurtful to the
country and dangerous to themselves

From the Farmer and Mechanic.

North Carolina is noble State to
look upon-on the map. And noble
State to talk about-on paper, or on
the stump-with a big salary paid you
for putting her. But North Carolina
in fact and in figures-makes but a
poor show! A very sad showing for
one who has already wasted one half
his lite in her service, and is likely to
keep on at it.

Kinder Strikes us that Way.

The robust Democracy has no place in
its leadership for mere screamers.
The statesman whose sole claim to
position is the energy of their lungs
must get themselves as fast as they
can to the rear ranks. They are
most useful where they can do the least
harm. The solid work of the party
can only be done by the solid men Of
the party.

The Impecunious Harpy.

The greediest man after local
newspaper is one who is too mean to
subscribe. He is always in waiting for
the latest paper and it is not two min
utes on the owners premises until the
non-subscriber pounces upon it, and
never lets up till the last line in it is
read, and then perhaps will cast it
aside with the remark that he could
make better paper himself

not paid in 80 days if under $50 or so
days if over $50 in value they may

At 7:30 o'clock the triangle sounded,

Brother Hamiltonian Smith arose
to make an inquiry. He had often
been asked if it was forbidden in the
constitution or the bylaws of tho
Limekiln Club for a member to hold
position under the State or United
States Government.
81 should reckon it wasn'tw replied
the President as Smith sat down. "De
