An Unrnistakable Barometer.
From the ReidsriILe Bellies Letters.

Taking up the newspapers-the un-
mistakable barometers of civilization
we find sufficient and evincive indi-
cations OF what we say. For example,
in the two latest issues Of the Winston
Sentinel, we notice two original stories
and four poems In the latter num-
Der is "The Phantom Isles," a poem
By Mr.. J. G. Rockwell, which is one
of the most delicately and exquisitely
conceived things we have ever read.
Mr.. Rockwell's story, "Love Among
the Lowly," in the preceding number
is also one of the most inimitable in
stances of precocity we ever witnessed;
and places him at once within the
rank of high-class story writers.
Among the Sentiaeps regular CORES
pondents are Edward Payson Hall, Of
Mount Vernon, n. c.; 'fCarine," of
Clayton, n. c., who is also constant
contributor to that excellent little
contemporary, the Clayton Bud; and
the famous MADAM ADAM" whose
natural writings have excited unusual
admiration. Mr.. Oldham, the editor
of the Sentinel, is also a poet and wri-
ter of more than State fame. His
writings have found their way into
the Harper periodicals, the Chicago
Current, and others, of similar rcpu-
tation.

ington Theatricals.
Special Correspondence Of the Sentinel.
WAsHINGToN, d. c., May 11.-The
presence of Capt. Doherty in Wash
ington city calls to mind Wilkes
Booths handouts, of which very
little has ever been said, but
that little untrue. 1t is we'll
known that the handouts never grac-
ed the wrists of Booth, but innumera-
BILE stories have been circulated con-
corning his capture. Capt. Doherty,
however, carried the handouts with
him, intending to use them, if necessa-
ry, and thus they became linked with
the name of Wilkes Booth. Perhaps
ten years ago Miss Margaret Ciagett,
a Maryland lady, exhibited the hand
cuffs to The SENTINEL representative
and informed him that they were a
present from the hand of Capt Doher-
ty. They were an ordinary pair, lock-
ed, and well-preserved. Our astonish-
ment was followed by longing to Sc
cure the handouts at any price. We
were much younger than we were to-
day, and felt all of the enthusiasm of
youthful heart. We could not offer
the lady money, but we did offer her
everlasting gratitude. She refused
naturally, but we pleaded with youth,
full fervor, and was finally rewarded.
Our youthful fervor had SO nearly ap-
preached tearfulness that our eyes
perhaps proved more eloquent than
words. She presented the handouts,
not without considerable reluctance
and charged us to preserve them for
ever. 1t was our intention to obey
the lady's injunction, not only for her
sake, but for the sake of the history
surrounding the relic. The scene took
place in the drawing room of The la
dy's residence. As the lady left the
room, we hugged the handouts as
though they we're a new-found treas
ure. 1t may be imagined that hand
cuffs are not very pleasant articles to
have clinging in ones pocket, especial
ly when ones pocket is youthful, ano
guilty OF all of the extravagances o
youth. When We started to join ou
comrades in game of II Spy!' tn,
handouts began to feel uncomfortable
We sought relief from a burden VIZ
had so willingly shouldered. Their
