OCCUPACIA, Va, August %, 1889.
All persons who we're at our last court
give glowing accounts OF the excellent
speeches that were made IN an I'M
promptu Democratic nesting and the
enthusiasm elected, but it is time that
Democrats were beginning to learn that
noise will not do what organization,
work, and money can only do. The
Democratic County Committee will
meet at September court TO take mea-
sures for the success of the ticket.
The Democratic convention that was
called to meet at Saluda, Middlesex
county, the 3lst of August to nominate
a candidate for the State Senate IN the
Thirty ninth senatorial district has been
postponed to the 4th OF September.
With the bad advice, management, and
assistance OF the Republican party head
men here, the work that FIrst-Assistant-
Chopper Clarkson is getting in
is not giving satisfaction to all hepubli-
cans. and there are indications that the
party will lose ground under its local
management. One OF the appointees
who has managed to make the patrons
of his Office thoroughly dissatisfied and
has been twice reported to the depart
ment without any notice being taken OF

that he must consent to vote openly the

CHARLOTTE, n. c., August 3I.-A very
romantic marriage occurred in New Han

{. Herring, a man about thirty seven
years Old, wooed and won the heart OF
Miss Cornela Grady, the beautiful
daughter OF A. j. Grady, a wealthy
western planter. Herring being only
common mechanic, the parents OF his
sutton strongly objected TO the match,
and the old man forbade him to call on
her The lovers, however, were deter
mined, and after some weeks arrange
ments for an elopement were perfected.
Early last Tuesday morning about an
hour before daylight Herring drove up
quietly in front Of the home Of his lover.
The old folks were peacefully slumber-
ing, but Miss Cornelia was sitting at
her window in waiting. She was
quietly assisted to the ground, seat
ed in the buggy, was rapidly
driven to Castlehayne, fourteen miles
away. A justice of the peace was called
for and witnesses summoned, and as the
san was sending its first rays over the
eastern hills, the two, still seated IN the
buggy, were pronounced man and wife.
This being done, an officer with proper
authority was sent for the young lady's
trunk, while the newly-wedded lovers
boarded a train for Wilmington. from
which place they came on to Charlotte
and are now here. The officer succeeded
in getting the trunk, which was shipped
