PICNIC At CHAPEL HILL.

The Joint picnic held at Chapel Hill,
Kinds county, last Friday, by the new
Marty men and Democrats was a sue
cess so far as the attendance and SO
cial feature of it were concerned, but
somewhat of disappointment on &C
count OF the showery weather and
failure of some of some Of the invited
speakers to respond. The Democrats
had invited Maj Barksdale, Mr.. DOdds
and Hon. j. II. Wells, Chairman of
the Kinds county Democratic Eexecu-
tive Committee, none of whom were
present The Prohibitionists and Peo-
pies men were represented by b. L.
Hobbs and Mr.. N. NJ. Hollingsworth, and
break the news gently to the old party
mem the Pros and Peoples party men
appeared to have decided majority
Of the votes on the ground. The edi-
tor OF the LEADER wishes to return his
cordial thanks for the courtesies ex-
tended him by all he met without re-
gard to party, and especially to DIR.

A GREAT SPEECH

Bishop Galloway's address before
the Wesleyan Methodist Conference at
Bedford, England, which we have just
had the pleasure of reading, is, one of
the greatest efforts of his life. 1t is
international in scope, full..of interest
ing historical and current facts, cloth
ed in faultless rhetoric and presented
with the inspiring eloquence for which
Bishop is so justly noted. In 1t we
find the following passage, which ought
to have current application:
sOn the Temperance question South
ern Methodist occupies a foremost po-
sition, insisting upon total abstinence
for the individual and absolute legal
Prohibition by the State. Our own
5000 preachers, with scarcely an excep-
ton, are total abstainers, and our Cen
eral Conference has spoken with tire
mendous emphasis in favor of the lega-
suppression of the infamous traffic.
For the integrity and purity Of our
National Sabbath. which is becoming
an ominous question, we earnestly con-
tend, believing that on the authority
of the Word of God and the sanctity OF
the day of God, the perpetuity of the
Church and the prosperity of the Ma
ton mainly depends"
A specially interesting feature OF the
speech is the treating of the religious,
moral and natural condition Of the
South, which in future issue we
hope to lay before our readers. fa
