We have read with great interest this

had & slight acquaintance with the
modest, retiring subject Of this volume,
but never once thought Of him as the
intellectual giant described therein.
The testimony comes, however, from
such men as that We are bound to &C

the greatest Of Virginians lived and
moved amongst us without being recOg-
nized by all as ell ought to have recog-
nized him.
The work of DR.. and Mrs. HATCHER
is well done. We cannot see that there
is any want Of order in the arrange
ment of the materials. If there is
any such defect, it is, to make an Irish
bull, a recommendation. 1t is admira-
ble disorder. We went through the
book in one afternoon, emitting but
few of the 35l pages.
The printers work is none too well
done. The punctuation Of some of
DR.. Browns writings is very badly
done. The fourth line of page 206
ought to be the first. There are other

Pensions.

President CLEVELAND has added
new interest to the subject Of pensions.
His boldness in vetoing non-meritorious
pension bills has attracted the atten-
tion of the entire country, North and
South, and has convinced the people
that since the days Of ANDREW JACK
SON the White House hiss had no occu-
pant more independent, more cour-
ageous, or more thoroughly equipped for
a contest, either offensive or defensive,
with the two houses Of Congress.
The cases to which we called
attention yesterday evidence a crimi-
nal carelessness on the part Of Con-
grees in the matter Of voting pensions.
The House Of Representatives meets on
Friday night Of each week for the pur-
pose of considering pension bills. Often
there are not more than from twenty
to fifty members present. The southern
members, or at least many Of them, alb
sent themselves because they do not feel
free to vote sgainst bills granting pensions
to Union soldiers or their widows and
children. Mr.. CLEVELAND has
"chapged all that" Hereafter, these
bills will be scrutinized, and southern
members will feel as much at liberty as
northern members to refuse to give
the peoples money to persons having
no sort Of claim upon the gratitude OF
their fellow-citizens.
. The immense sum annually paid out
for pensions is serious drain upon the
southern States. These States contain
very few Union soldiers. Consequently
they are impoverished as natural and
unavoidable consequence of annually
paying out in the northern States some
twenty-five millions Of dollars col
lected in the southern States.
In the northern States, it is
true, about sixty millions Of dollars
are annually collected to be used in
paying pensions but as all these sixty
millions, in addition to the twenty-five
millions collected in the South, are dis
bursed in the North, our nothern
brethren are benefited rather than dam
aged by the large pension list.
II is clear case, therefore, that it is
the duty of the southern members Of
Congress to examine carefully every
pension bill that comes up for consid-
GRAFTON in Congress, and to vote for none
except those having real merit. 1t iss
clear case, too, that we Of the South
owe in this matter debt Of gratitude
to President CLEVELAND.

The Confederate Preacher

lNis hbpuDtlNhiAsl
tits remembered that in 1862 a coun-
try preacher somewhere in Central Mis-
souri, was notified by the local militia
that he must cease his reasonable ut
terances in the pulpit or be arrested.
The preacher demanded a bill Of par
ticulars. He was told in an abrupt way
that he must pray for the Presi-
dent, and to the astonishment Of the
militia he promptly declared his willing
ness to comply with the order. On the
following Sunday morning his little
church was crowded with miltamen aud
Confederate sympsthizerS, each filled
with hali-concealed anxiety for the
days results. 1t was a hot day in
June. Outside the church the horses
noighed and whinnied. Over the square,
wooden pulpit the hot breezes toyed'
with the leaves of hymn-book which
had been opened at the ancient tune o!
Near. In the amen corner set the Off
GERS Of the militia. In the opposite
corner were the deacons Of the congre.
cation. The white-haired preacher was
hidden from view behind the pulpit
longer than usual that morning, but at
last the services began aud a breath.
less hush fell upon the assembly as it
sOlemnly knelt for the prayer on which
the fate Of the congregation was hang.

RALEIGH, N. c., July 6.-Tht
bridge over Tar river on the Whining
ton and Weldon railroad between Colds
boro' and Weldon was partly washed
away Sunday night. II caused some
delay to passengers, but travel is now
uninterrupted. The bridge, which was
wooden one, will be replaced by ar
iron one.
Last night, at Manly, N. c., q station
on the Raleigh and Augusta railroad, q
fire broke out in the dry-goods store Of
0. S. Jones, burning 1t to the ground
and consuming another store, restau'
rant, and six. houses occupied by ne
croes. The cause of the fire is sup
posed to be from contact Of rats with
matches. This is the second time
Manly has been burned recently.
Some of our newspapers have lately
been publishing lists of inventions by
North Carolina men. People are sur
prised at the number of inventors.
Lately Mr.. w. r. Self, Of Newton,
patented q most valuable road-engine.
lie has been offered 100000 for his
patent.
An incendiary FIRE destroyed the
valuable mill property of r. E. Jones, a
few miles from Goldsboro'. This was
probably the best property Of the kind
in the State. Several parties are under
suspicion, and will probably be brought
to justice.
Wilmington was fortunate enough
lately to have as itss guest Professor
John c. Calhoun, of the Alabama Uni
versity. He is the Granddaughter Of
the great metaphysician and southern
statesman. lie holds a degree from
Heidelberg University, and in his at
tainments honor his great name.

ton with two counties and parts Of
three others. Mr.. Dortch will get
Wayne and parts Of two others. Mr..
Mclean will get two, and Mr.. Nc
Clammy will get one. So you see it
will not be a walk-over for any one of
the candidates.
The Board Of County Commissioners,
which met in this city to-day, were pc
titioned by several liquor dealers Of the
city for license to sell wine and beer,
claiming that the law passed at the last
election prohibiting the sale of spirit
uous liquors within this township did
not include yinous and malt liquors.
After hearing argument Of counsel on
both sides the Board decided not to inter-
fere with the law, claiming that it was
matter for the Board Of Aldermen of
the city to decide. This is a victory
for the prohibitionists.
There is bitter fight against Con-
gresham Reid in his district. The
friends Of Mr.. Reid are fghting-mad
and say he shall be elected, and from
the way various conventions are en-
dorsiDg him his prospects seem flatter-
ing.
In some parts of the State prohibi-
ton tickets have been nominated, and
the candidates are showing some
strength. The movement, however,
can never be anything but local. The
most jealous prOhibitionists in the
State oppose the movement.

Extravapance in College.

Some of our northern contemporaries
are discussing the extravaganza of stu
dent life at several Of the northern in
situations of learning. The Boston
Herald, in an article headed Social
Distinctions at Harvard" says:
Unfortunately for the general popu-
larity Of Harvard, the belief has be-
come quite widely diffused that the
standards established thereof course,
among the students-are largely de-
termined by the wealth, or, If not by
the wealth, by the extravaganza, of the
under. graduates. There is, of course,
nothing to prevent young man Of hum
bic means from living during his four
years. stay at Harvard University as
simply and economical as he chooses !;
but there are feelings Of personal pride
common to most Americans which
make it extremely distasteful for them
TO place themselves in positions that are
considered degrading by those with
whom they are forced to associate"
The Boston Globe, in treating Of
"Luxury in College," says;
taking the rooms at Harvard, Yale,
and Princeton right through, it is proba-
bic that the cost Of their furnishing TO-
day is three times what 1t was thirty
years ago. Then in the matter Of So
eisties there has been great change.
Entertainments that cost 400 are no.
rare to-day, whereas the fathers Of
these society men thought $40 bill

An O.toway (Ont.) special says In
quiry at the Department of Marine and
Fisheries elected the fact to-day that
so far as that department was aware
the American fishing schooner City
Point had nothing to do with the affair.
The whole matter has been transferred
to the Department Of Customs, as it
was for violation Of customs and not
fishery regulations that vessel was
seized. The Minister Of Justice will
shortly leave for the maritime provinces
in order to direct the prosecution on
behalf Of the Government in the cases
against American vessels seized for vio-
lation Of the fishery regulations.
The authorities here point to the
energy with which the work is being at
present carried out as an indication Of
the vigor with which the Government
proposes to deal with the unpleasant
question. The Minister of Marine and
Fisheries left on the same mission TO-
night.
