To the Patrons of the Russell.
 yIIle Public School:

To make our school success requir es the earnest CO., operation of each parent. Our purpose as teachers and parents is one, and that is the development of the minds and hearts of our pupils and children. Our common interest and common responsibility demand a mutu- al confidence. The confidence you ex- press in teacher by placing your chil- dren in his care should not be an as- sumed one. You should trust his judg- ment as to the advancement of the pu- pil and in all things pertaining to the ordinary routine of school life.
 You will help the teachers greatly I by assisting the pupils and giving much encouragement at home. Don't expect perfection in teachers. Encourage them and the pupils by visiting the school and especially by speaking well of the teachers and the sch ool if they merit it. The Course of Study will be sent to each parent. Please become familiar with it.
 Don't buy text books until the teach CT sends you list of what is needed. and then be so kind as to get them promptly.
 Let us have a united effort of parents, pupils and teachers and success will crown our efforts.

Catarrh

IS blood disease. Until the poison is l expelled from the system, there can be no cure for this loathsome and dangerous malady. Therefore, the only effective treatment is thorough course of Ayers Sarsaparilla a-- the best of all blood purifiers. The sooner you begin the better delay is dangerous.
 1T was troubled with catarrh for over two years. l tried various remedies, and was treated by a number of physi- ciaus, but received no benefit until I began to take Ayers Sarsaparilla. A few bottles of this medicine cured me of this troublesome complaint and com pletely restored my health. Jesse NJ. Boggs, Holman's Mills, N. c.
 owhen Ayers Sarsaparilla was rec commended to me for catarrh, was in- clined to doubt it's efficacy Having tried so many remedies, with little ben- eft, had no faith that anything would cure me. l became emaciated from loss of appetite and impaired digestion. I had nearly lost the sense of smell, and nv system was badly deranged. l was about discouraged, when friend urged me to try Ayers Sarsaparilla, and re- ferred me to persons whom it had cured of catarrh After taking half a dozen bottles of this medicine, am convinced that the only sure way of treating this obstinate disease is through the blood" - Charles II.

From the Leaksville Gazette:
"And this same Holden, "disowned"
and repudiated by both parties, after
eighteen years of charitable oblivion
now has the objectionable egotism
to ask an intelligent and patriotic
legislature to condone his high
crimes and damn its own character
by proclaiming that the gravest
outrages ever inflicted upon a peo-
pie were prompted by ''good motives"
and for the chest and highest inter-
ests of the State !" He was fairly
tried, honestly found guilty, and
should forever bear the odium ofhis
misdeeds."
No, Mr.. Holden, the time has not
come, nor will it ever arrive, when
the liberty-loving, patriotic sons of
North Carolina, who are sent to
Raleigh to represent their constit-
uency, will stultify themselves and
their people by forgiving you, even,
for the outrages you perpetrate6
upon free and a proud people.
To ask them to endorse your
damnable acts is indeed the height
af impudence.

He is now the victim of times and
seasons, and must go directly home
when the proper hourarrives. Some
times, again, the effect of marriage
is to transform an exquisite into a
solven, especially if the cares OF
poverty and of an increasing family
rest upon his shoulders or it may
be that. he is sloven by nature, and
relapses into that condition when
the vanity of YOUTH ceases to act as
a spur. Husbands of this kind
commonly let their boards grow,
never black the heels of their boots,
and have an irritating tendency to
wear rubbers in fine weather. Their
hats, even if worn actually shabby,
are antiquated, and their trousers,
beside being worn short, invariably
bag at the knee. They wear long
overcoats, and carry either no UNI
brella (relying upon their old
clothes for protection or umbrellas
huge in size, cheap in material, and
warranted to- turn inside out in a
moderate breeze. These. men, if
living out of town, are almost sure
to develop fondness for poultry,
spending their Saturday afternoons
and Sunday mornings in pottering
about hen-coops and watching the
strut of their favorite cocks. They
care nothing for society, not much
for the. theater, and are apt to fall
asleep over a newspaper in the ev-
sning. They usually prefer pipes to
cigars, and they are mighty drinkers
of beer. To such base uses may
matrimony bring its victims

Canal bendholders have addressed letter

manship Of new canal company to be

the concern from the old Company.

SENSIBLE SUGGESTIONS.

~ =
In his annual message, Governor
Hill, of New York, calls attention
to the variety and conflict of laws
relating to marriage and divorce in
the different States and suggest that
the Legislature take some action
looking to conference of represen-
tatives Of all the States, to consider
the question of uniformity of di-
vorce laws.
He also suggests that the I1egisla-
ture recommend to Congress the
following amendments to the con-
stitution of the United States:
1. That the term of office of the
President and Vice President be six
years.
2. That the President shall be in
eligible for reelection.
3. That the President shall i'm
mediately upon the expiration OF
his term become a member of the
United States Senate for life, and
receive an appropriate salary. This
amendment shall apply to all living
ex-Presidents.
He also urges that some changes
be made in the election laws where
by the increasing complication which
has become incident to our elections
may be be prevented, all of which
are sensible suggestions to which

THE U. S. SENATORSHIP.

AS the time for the u. S. Sena-
tor to represent, with Zeb. Vance,
this State in the. upper house Of
Congress for the Next six years
draws near, there appears to be
more doubt than ever as to who is
most likely to be chosen by the leg
islature for that exalted Office. There
is Ransom, and Jarvis, and Sted-
man, and Alexander, and Waddell---
all thoroughly advocated by their
friends and by the press of the State.
We extract from the Iarboro South
erner the following:
'sThere is one man who has had
the hearty endorsement of his party,
yet of whom we see but little said
anent the Senatorial contest.
We allude to Charles M. Stead
man.
Those who attended the State Con-
vention will remember with what
acclaim the mention of his name for
Senator was received.
There were bnrsts of applause for
Fowle and all the other candidates,
but none equalled this.
81 nominate Charles Manly Sted-
man for the next United States Sen
ator," exclaimed a delegate from the
9TH, or 9Th district, and then, "All in
favor of him say AYE"
The writer heard the response.
He doesn't believe that there were
dozen Threats in that vast throng
that failed to yell an affirmative.
Stedman deserved this burst of con-
fdence and enthusiasm and he de-
serves it still. At no time and un-
der no circumstances has he
ever failed, with voice or purse, to
respond to the calls of his party. His
Democracy is of the highest order,
and he is a statesman of rare ability,
and man of unsullied character.
We know not whom the Legisla-
ture will choose to succeed Senator
Ransom, but we confidently be-
lieve that Major Stedman is the peer
if not the superior of any man mem
toned for the place"
THE SENTINEL is not advocating
either of the candidates for the Sen
atorship, but we can heartily en-
dorse the above. Gov. Stedman
said to the writer, however, on the
night he delivered his famous speech
IN Winston about three months ago,
that he did not aspire to the Senator
ship, but that he did want the Dem
ocratic nomination for governor in
1892.
There is no office within the gift
of the Democracy too good for
Charles Manly Stedman, and he
richly deserves all the honor at its
hands which it ought, and is reason
ably sure to bestow upon him.
