PUBLIC EXECUTIONS.
We are with the Wilmington M

We are with the Wilmington Mes
senger when it says:
All executions ought to be private.
Such is the conclusion of an over
whelming number of people of the
most intelligence SO far as we can
learn. Public hangings are now held
among most right thinking people to
be public curse and nuisance, and
good citizens everywhere should frown
upon such unseemly exhibitions to
crafty morbid appetite of an unreas-
oning multitude.
1t is to be regretted that the author
tiles in some of the counties in North
Carolina order public executions. Why
| is this done? Is it to save cost or is
it done to crafty a morbid curiosity
and desire on the part of certain peo-
pie to see 4 poor wretch launched into
eternity at the end of a rope? Let US
have no more such sickening specta
cles as that recently witnessed in Chat
ham county. What a commentary
upon our civilization when $500 or
1900 people flock to a town to see
human being put to death by the law!

only a good newspaper man, but

WE have read that Salisbury is
on a boom, but we do not need any
further assurance of that fact than the
following which we find in one Of it's
local papers. The Herald of last
week said:
Over five columns of new ADVERTISE
ments were received yesterday after
noon.
We always know how to gauge the
trade and standing of town whose
business and professional men give

IT is said that more compost has
been put on the farms this year than
any previous year. We expect better
times next Fall.-Goldsboro Eyening
Dispatch.
This is indeed a very gratifying
statement. 1t is always encouraging
to see farmers giving proper attention
to matters of that kind. Good COM |
post not only is beneficial to the crops
the first season, but it permanently !
enriches the land, which commercial |
fertilizers do not do.

warm winter. If one has no cedar
chests to store woolens in, very good
substitute is trunk or flour barrel.
The barrel should be we'll washed in
cold water, dried and lined with news

thick flour paste, with a large spoonful
Of alum added to quart of paste. Cover
every place on the inside of the barrel,

side of the barrel Cleat the cover to-

The woolens should be thoroughly

when by accident it was discovered that
the ears were much inflamed and very

The mausoleum of the Emperor Fred
erick is completed externally with the,
exception of the copper-roof of the cupola.
In the interior the stone-masons and
sculplors are still at work. The decora-.
tions of the interior are very rich and
carried out entirely in light gray Sile-
sian sandstone. The sober color of this
is only interrupted by the polished dark
green Syenite pillars. As finish to the,
arch which spans the opening of the.
altar niche, a beautifully formed es-
cutcheon has been chosen, over which tho,
imperial eagle scars with outspread
wings. This is thanked on both sides
by figures of angels holding religious
symbols in their hands. The span
arels of the upper gallery are adorned
with cherubs. Within the last few days
the Emperor's consent has been given to
the carrying out of the mosaic in the
3upola and on the ceiling Of tho altar
space. The designs for tho mosaics
were worked out by Prof. Ewald after
early Christian works. The eupola is to
receive figures of angels on a gold
ground between palms. 81 ondon Tele-

RUSSIAN HEBREWS.
Some of the Trials Jews Suffer in the
Cars DominiOns.

Some of the Trials Jews Suffer in the
Cars DominiOns.
A curious and important appeal case
has just been decided by the court of
Cessation of the Senate, which affords
q striking example of the complicated
disabilities of the Jews in Russia. A
law student of Jewish race executed u
deed of transfer by which he made over
his property in Kictf, consisting of
house and land, to his wife in her own
right. but the notary public refused to
legalize it on the ground that the wife,
who was also of the Jewish faith, had
no right to acquire landed property in
Kieff, whatever might be the rights of
her husband.
The matter went to court and it was
decided that, although Jew possessing
a diploma of either of the three learned
degrees had the right to reside in all
parts of the empire, and in virtue of
such right might acquire property in
the district of his residence, yet this
right to acquire property was the result
of an exception to the law granted in
favor of the Jewish doctor or master of
law or arts, as the case might be, indi
vidually, and was not communicable to
his wife or children.
This decision was upheld and con-
firmed on appeal to the Senate in st.
Petersburg. Possibly we shall soon
hear of the wives and families of Rus
sian Jews not having the right to reside
with their husbands and fathers in dis
tricts where the standard of their edu-
cation gives them the privilege to live.

CHARACTER OF CATS.
The View Puss Takes of the Philosophy
of Nature and Life.


The bent of the cats mind was pleas
antly defined few years ago by a
writer in the London Spectator, who
said there could be no doubt as to the
view Puss took of the philosophy of
nature and life. She is quite satisfied
that the world and every thing in it
were made and exists for cats. This
appears in all that well-bred and cared
for cats do, and in every accent and tone
Of their voice. Puss possesses herself
with the air of a proprietor of the best
place and the best food; expects to be
waited upon; demands share of every
dish; and looks upon US as at once her
Providence and her servant.
Cats are not demonstrative like dveS--
and do not submit to training like the
the horse. The dog has been credited
with unbounded affections, and the
horse with almost human sagacity; but
the cat still suffers under the bad char
acter that Buffon-who can not have
been acquainted with any reputable
specimens of the race-gave her. She
is said to be selfish, spiteful, cruel,
crafty, troacherous, loving places and
not persons, and in every way unworthy
of fellowship in the household. ]. G.
Wood answers these accusations by saw
ing that the cats with which he has
been most familiar shave been as do
cile, tractable and good tempered as any
dog could be, and displayed an amount
of intellectual power which would be
equaled by very few dogs, and surpassed
be none" To all persons who have
given their confidence to Puss and re-
ceived hers in return, they need no
answer.--W. H. Larrabee, in Popular
Science MONTHLY.

He Watches the Operations of Two Hunt
With Great Interest.
On one occasion, in company with my
brother, had gone to the woods and
was there to wait for farmer, at whose
house we had stopped over night, and
who was to come on later with fox
hounds, for we were to try for reynard
that day. We had got out of the road
which ran through the forest, and over
a rail fence, and were standing under
large hemlock when we heard a ruffed
grouse in the distance. He came directly
toward us, and alighted on the ground
about forty feet away. There was a
small gully or water course between us
and tho bird. Before he struck the
ground ne had taken about two-thirds
of circle to break his lightninglil,e
flight As soon as he lit he Strengthened
up and took q survey. He soon saw us,
but instead of again flying he swelled
up in most pOmpous manner. Never
had l seen grouse appear larger or
more magnificent. My brother looked
at me and l suggested that he snap a
cap at him. Neither of our muzzle-
leaders was charged. At the sound of
the first cap the grouse slightly shook
himself, but seemed to swell his breast
out more. My brother continued taking
caps from his pocket and swapping them
at the grouse, bringing his gun up each
time and taking deliberate aim until
nine were exploded. The grouse seemed.
to like the sound and to be fascinated
by it, and the scene generally. The
man coming down the road with the
dogs alarmed him, and turning he ran
several feet and took wing, and we
heard him going through the thick ever
green's away in the distance.
