DEATH OF MRS DR.. w. 7.
LEARY.

AS the Enquirer so beautifully
chronicles the death of Mrs. DR.
Leary, who died suddenly on Sunday
night last, we publish it in full as
taken from that paper:
Another sheaf has been gathered home,
Another place left bare,
And the stubble has pierced our bleed
ing hearts
Till the wo1 Id with it's joys and its many
arts,
Can bring no solace there.
Monday morning the sad news Of
the death of Mrs DR.. w. J. Leary
ran, like an electric message, from
place to place, until every home in
the town, apprised Of the sad intelli
gence, was wrapped in gloom and
mOunrnful numbers bewailed their
loss irreparable. Her dea h, unex-
peCted, was, therefore, more intensely
sad than it would have been had any
mark of the destroyer premonlshed
her friends. Age had dealt kindly
with her, and though her years had
ripened into the sixties, the beautiful
traces of her younger self, when
matchless in her personal grace, still
fingered the adornments of perfect
mould, challenging the aesthetics
even of the best endowed and most
cultivated. AS a member of society
in Edenton, from her early woman
hood, she moved without peer in
the almost matchless perfection of her
personal beauty and with but few
equals in those high and enobling
elements of christian character which
give to beluty its finish and lend to
excellence its most exquisite charm.
Beautiful and good. kind and benev-
olent, a Jealous and f,ithful christian,
she has gone to the silent tomb, and
while We say farewell, angels with
harps unseen repeat the joyful echoes, /
quiet and long, of "Welcome home"
The funeral occurred Tuesday |
afternoon at ST Paurs. Rev. Mr..
Eborn, of Creswell, and Rev. H. A.
Skinner, of Elizabeth City, conduct
no the services. The esteem in !
which the deceased was held could
not have been more thoroughly
,ttested than it was in the large con-
course Of people that followed her
.enains to their last but beautiful
eseting place-in the yard of the
.hurch Of which she was life long

 WHO SHALL JUDGE {?
BY CHARLES EUGENE BANKS.

God made the universe and hurled It forth to being, world on world; AS hopefully tn inventive boy Sets spinning his new fashioned toy, But with this difference: Nature wrought Perfection from perfect thought, And as 'tis true the spinning top Must, from it's imperfeciions, stop, So true the world, of perfect plan, Will on forever. Dreaming man Sees only by a darkened light; Clear all things to the Infinite Poor, blind humanity must feel It's way through life, and woe and veal, Fer winding pathways, near allied, Running forever side bv side What wonder man 80 often strays From that to thIs throughout hls days? To-day we deem ourselves n-proof And from the wayward hold alOOf; Tomorrow founder deep in woes While he we scorned straight onward goes That heart Is truest, nOblest, best, Which makes brothers grief it's guest, That gives to famished souls feast, And judgeth of its neighbor least. The humble toiler trlls along And lightens labor with song. The worshipers of Mammon sheer Because, mayhap, the poets ear Hath caught the harmonies that roll In rhythmic cadence round his soul, FOrgetful of tho pen and brain Which gave the tOiler his refrain. The poet, gentle still of heart, Signs softly as he turns apart: "Id rather be lark, and sing My song on free, empyreal wing, If but one ear of all the throng Be upward turned to list my song, Than any selfish lord of earth To whom Dame Natures given birth; And if at eve my pulsing breast To damp and chilly heath be pressed, And frowning skies my comfort blight, I'll spring as gay at morning light, And pour my rlpnlng melody Out OCT the earth as full and free As though thousand fairies strove To make my couch as warm as love-" Thus minds, as worlds, still circle round, And Truth 'twixt Opposites is found; Thus every human bears part To stir the blood in Natures heart; And when at last this worldly guise Shall vanish in the light of eyes, True, perfect, clear as He shall give, Methinks twill be to move and live Tbe proud, the loving, great and small With all their acts made plain to all Each read the heart that's now unread, And, howsoe'er our paths we tread, So shall we sup of woe or bliss In that world as we move in this. And He, of all the Life and Soul, Must view His product onward roll Forever, for the worlds that be Swim in an everlasting sea.

"I was thrown into raging perplex- ity. My orders were to join the regi. ment at once. Any delay seemed to me like dashing the cup from my lips in the moment of attainment. I could not endure the hindrance, and the message seemed to be one of quite sec- ondary importance. Bellamonte came to my help and undertook to carry the communication. I could not see that there was any risk in connection with 1t; % Lsthankfully accepted his offer, and departed to join my regi- ment, which was then s,sar Larhorn.
 "A week afterwards I received a letter from Milan, directed in hand that was somewhat familiar to me. | opened it and saw to my amusement the signature of Inchkeith at the end. Inchkeith, of Corpus.

 "That letter" he continued broken ly at last, "t0ld mo that Bellamonte was dead-his wife dying-that he had named me a guardian of their boy, who might or might not live until I arrived. No particulars were giv6n. There was pas enclosed from tho Austrian general, and an urgent appeal to como at once to Milan. I got leave. I supPose, and went hle .

 '1I remember all the circumstances perfectly" replied, "though how you ever succeeded in reaching the station whole and sound in wind and limb, has been subject of speculation for my leisure moments ever since"
 He did not seem to hear, and after . few moments of absorbed reflection, leaning forward with his handi plunged in his hair, went on.

 A roar of laughter went up from us when we perceived Atherstone's un- dignified manner of departure on his romantic mission. The vehicle was in that last stage of decrepitude then a matter of course with Oxford convey ances let us hope the age of hansoma has changed all that now. The knight-errant was scarlet with his ex- ertions and frenzied with anger, but the cab crawled on, and %, amid shouts of derisive laughter, Don Quirote of Balliol made his exit from Oxford and set out on his quest.

The vineyard was completely surrounded by detachment of the cavalry regi- ment to which Inchkeith belonged. He himself was of the party, as also Margherita's eldest brother.
 "The message brought to me had been an entire fabrication, c trap of the enemy's, who were watching the spot, but who had not known how valuable 8 prey was to fall into their hands. Bellamonte was, of course, overpowered immediately. That was . war waged with deadly hatred on both sides; deeds of violence were common enough.
 "The order had been given before hand that whoever was taken prisoner at this rendezvous should be shot as . spy on the spot, and the officer in com- mand bade them make ready to carry 1t out Margherita clung to her hus- band like . mad woman. He was quite calm and collected. He smoothed her hair and soothed her like . child, en- treating her to go home at once with her boy, to take him away directly, 60 that they might not see tho end. The rough soldiers themselves began to be deeply moved by the scene, and with admiration of his courage. Inchkeith was tolerably inurcd to bloodshed, but he turned away, sickened at the thought of butchering this brave man, whom he recognized as his old ac- quaintance at Oxford.

The symptoms of biliousness are un-
happily but too well known. They
differ in different individuals to some
extent. A bilious man is seldom a
breakfast eater. To frequently, alas,
he has an excellent appetite for liquids
but none for solids of a morning. His
tongue will hardly bear inspection at
any time; if it is not white and furred
it is rough, at all events.
The digestive system is wholly out of
order and diarrhea or constipation may
be symptom or the two may alternate.
There are often hemmorrhoids or even
loss of blood. There may be giddiness
and often headache and acidity or flat
ulence and tenderness in the pit of the
stomach. To correct all this if not
