dresser, He also procured chloroform, a
billy and a large revolver. After Grant

and struck him heavy blow with the
billy, expecting to knock him insensible.
Latin also had chlorform ready to keep
him quiet, intending to take all the money
of Grant and tell the landlady be was
not feeling we'll, and not to wake him IN

murderer time to get out OF the country.

and sprang out of bed. Latin had a
large revolver In his hand and in the

shot at Giant and missed him, then got

stable, testified to the facts of the hiring
of the white horse, as testified to by Di-
nan on Saturday. He said that when the
horse came hack, at 9:30, he was puffing
and gave evidence of having been hard
driven. The buggy was covered with
sand aud mud.
Mrs. Conkl,D, at whose house DR.. Gro

told at great length and with minuteness
the story of how DR.. CronIn was called
for by man, who ostensihly wanted him
to go to attend one of P. O'Sullivan's ice

the evening of the murder. She iderti-

taken away as the white horse and top

PUBLIC SPIRIT.

The Richmond Tunes of the nth
contained an editorial on the subject
of "Public Spirit-Local and State"
from which we make the following ex-
tracts. That part that refers to local
public spirit we wish to emphasize es-
pcciully. What the Times says OF
Richmond will apply with equa force
to Henderson and every other town.
Read it:
The direction of public spirit in
Richmond should be towards a united
sentiment of all the business interests,
and along with this must be a conser-
vative political opinion in our munich
pal affairs. * x The only difficulty
with our people is that they lack that
n ted 81 lit Of action called public
spirit, which has made the great COM
munltles of the North and West. With
the ie son before US, why should our
moneyed men withhold their capital
from manufacturing enterprises, or put
1t in places far away from their home
IN which the advantages can be made
equal to any if they will act together?
All the business interests of a commu-
nifty should be brought to bear in such
manner that a conservative sentiment
IN politics will represent those mate
rial interests in the form of the great
commune Of social organization. x =
Now, we call the attention Of the peo-
pie Of Richmond to these truths, and
beg them to consider that the great
thing in modern affairs is to pull to-
gether. With all our advantages, we
have only to do right by them for prac-
teal results, and very great results.

THE RIGHT SPIRIT.

WILMINGTON IS moving to increase
her population and wealth, and to null
tiply her manufacturing industries.
This is commendable. To further the
end in view s:Chamber Of Industry"
has been organized, ofwhich the 1Nfs-
Scn%|r says this:
| 1t is to be conducted on the usual
! plan OF organization Of such bodies,
with President, three Vice Presidents,
Secretary and Treasurer, and Board Of
Directors. Eligibility for membership
consists only in the known fact of good
citizenship, and interest in the growth
and progress CT the city. There will
be dues Of 50 cents per month from all
! members, for the purpose Of defraying
the current expenses Of the organiza
ton, and to be employed in such ad-
vertising IS the "Chambcr" may see
proper to employ in behalf of the city.
4 resolution was adopted for the ap-
pointment of committees as follows:
Sanitary, Advertising, Streets, and
Sewers, Manufacturing, immigration
and Good and Welfare of the city.
Meetings are to be held the first and
third Mondays Of each month.
Now that looks like business. Such
an institution, by organized and united
effort, can do much for the good of
the town. Why can't we have such
an organization in Henderson? Why
WAS the Chamber of Commerce allow
to go down after it was organized?
There has not been a single meeting
held since the first one. Let the Cham
Der of Commerce or the Chamber Of
Industry, be brought into life and &C
tivity and let us so earnestly to work
to promote the growth and welfare Of
the town and section.

The whipping post ought to be re-
vived. You may talk about its being
relict of barbarlsm if you like, but
just such thing is needed in this day
and generation for the punishment of
petty offences, larcency especially.
Here is an illustration, and if any
stronger proof or argument can be de-
manded we will try to give it. The
Wilmington Messenger gives an item
lied statement showing that the theft
of chicken valued at fifteen cents
cost the tax payers Of the State s6o4.-
10 before the State was finally rid of
the offender. Would not the whipping
post be much better, cheaper and
more effective way of dealing with such
a case as that3 We think so.

FROM 4 private source the MessfH-
ger is informed that the additional
appropriation asked for the State Guard
has been defeated in the House, but
that the matter should be persisted in,
and that there are sanguine hopes en-
tertalned of success. The Nessenge,
strongly urges that no efforts be spared
in this laudable endeaver,an that the
matter be pressed with all reasonable
vj9Or. The State Guard is too essen
tial to the State to admit of any show
of Indifference toward it by our Legis-
lators, and those of the latter commit
ted to such policy, should be relega-
ted to very private life VILWins-
ion Messenger.
The Legislature ought not to hest
tate about this matter. The appropria-
ton should be made. AS the Messen-
ger remarks sthe State Guard is too
essential to the State to admit of any
show of indifference toward it by our
Legislators. Let the friends Of the
State Guard champion the measure
and urge that the increased appropia-
ton be allowed. 1t ought to be done
without moments hesitation.
