Can Chatham Beat This!

According to the Sun, of Griffin, Ga :,
Mr.. J. B. Wilson of that city is a remark
able man. He was born at sea- lived in
sixteen different States in as many years;
grew up without education, wild and
wicked A few years ago he became a
Christian, and since then has lived con-
sistently with his profession of faith.
One night lie dreamed that he must read
a certain chapter in the Bible. The dream
so impressed him that he obeyed it, and
although he did not know letter of the
alphabet, found the chapter and read it
through. Since that time he has read his
Bible regularly. He can read any chap
ter in the Bible, but not word in any
other book or newspaper.

BURGAw, NC, Jan. 10, 1888 From the
newspaper accounts the politicians seem
to be on TENDER TOES-aS to who will be
our next Democratic standard bearer for
gubernatorial honors. Whilst the polite
ian may SEEM to grope in stygian dark
ness, in my humble opinion-there never
has been a time in the history of the old
North State when the Democratic rank
and file have been more unanimous than
they are at present. have travelled over
great deal of territory, recently in this
section, and have got to find man who
does not favor that genial, talented aud
princely gentleman Chas. NJ. Stedman-
and the handwriting is upon the wall
Stedman will in the next contest bear the
Democratic standard to victory. In Pen
der county we are unanimous, and have
long since offered a reward for a Pender
county man who opposes Stedman for
Governor. The reward has not been call

How to Become Learned.

Any man of mature years who has en-.
joyed all the advantages of free public
primary, grammar and high school. a
preparatory academy, a college, and a
professional school. will testify that what
he has learned by himself is Of infinitely
more value to him than all he ever ac-
quired in all the institutions of learning
he ever attended. Books on all subjects
are now so cheap and plenty, public
libraries are so large and numerous, in
struction in special studies is so easily OBJ
tanned that any person who can read.
write and compute numbers may become
as learned as the wisest. he can study
what he knows or thinks viii afford him
the most pleasure or profit. He can
cultivate his head, hands, or heels, his
eye, tongue, or ear. his manners, morals
and language to any extent he desires, al

Oyercrowdiug in Siberia.

The overcrowding of the Siberian
prisons is appalling. 1.-The Tomsk trans
portation prison." writes The Siberian
Gazette of that city, sis overcrowded. Tc
the 1870 people we had here 200 new
ones have been added. and 50 the prison
which was built for 900 people contains
1900. There are 207 persons on the sick
list" The central prison, on Sackhalin
island. which was built for 600 people,
contained 1,103 in 1879. Michela, ST.
berian official and ex-prison director,
writes about two prisons which were
under his control as follows: THE jailer
brought me to the rooms. Everywhere
dirt, overcrowding, wetness, want of air
and light. After having visited the
rooms l entered the hospital. As soon as
| entered the first room I was involun-
tarily thrown back by the inconceivable
smell. The water closets were luxurious
apartments in comparison with the
hospital. Everywhere the number of
prisoners is thrice the number permitted
by the law. At Verknendinsk, for in
stance, the Jail is built for $40 inmates,
and it usually contains 500. Michael

GENERAL HARRISON.
Most of the Day Given to Correspondence
Magnitude of the Campaign in Indiana

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Sept. THE day
with General Harrison was quiet and une-
ventful, after the big Republican demon
stration of last night. The general gave
most of his time to correspondence and it
IS presumed he is working on his letter of
acceptance. Among his callers this after
noon was General Hoyey, who remains in
the city until morning, when he leaves for
Connonsville, where he speaks tomorrow
night. The outside public may gain some
faint idea of the magnitude of the great
political attempt that is just getting fairly
under way in every township and every
county in Indiana when it is learned that
the Democrats have !, 500 speakers through
out the state who have already canvaSsed
their own counties and are now speak ing
In adjoining counties. The list of local
speakers on the books of the Republican
state committee is not complete as yet, but
1.500 names are listed, which is an average
of nearly fifteen to each of the ninety-two
counties.

citedly informed Reitz that the occupants
of the fleeing vehicle had made an attempt
to steal the body of Maxwell. Investiga
ton developed tine fact that Shelvin had
been employed and paid by an unknown

fired and the men fled and have not been

LITTLE Rock, Ark, Sept. L-Democratlc
estimates of the majority for Eagle are cut
down again. At first the claim was 25,-
600: then as returns came in it was insisted
that Eagle would certainly exceed Hughes
majority of two years ago, which was Ii,
al. Today it was admitted that the re-
suit will fall short of the last majority
and 5000 is claimed. The Gazette, the
organ of the Democracy, says:
1T is safe to conclude that Col: Eagle
majority will not exceed that which Gov,
Hughes received two years ago, and
that it will not fall below 5000.
Twenty-six counties have reported IN full
They give Eagle less than 5000 majority.
Thlrty-four counties have been heard from
in part and they increase Eagles majority
considerably, but nothing at all has been
received from fifteen counties. Democrats
admit the returns grow more and more IA
vorable to the opposition. That is just as
the Wheelers have insisted would be the
case. They claimed that their strength was
outside of the town and would not be
heard from for two or three days. Wheel
ers claim that with all the frauds which
have been perpretrated and even taking in
account tie stealing of 1000 Norwood
votes from the county clerk here last
