boro Circuit, and an able aud success
full preacher:
1.-THE series of revival meetings con-
Quoted by Rev. D. w. Akers during
nearly two weeks past, has been an in
teresting and instructive one, and we
trust has been the means CT accom-
plishing great good to the church. One
interesting feature has been an evening
service of bible readings, in which a
great many became greatly interested.
The sermon at II o'clock last Sunday
was a fine effort and was listened to by
a large congregation with great inter-
est. Mr.. Akers is a man of deep piety,
clear thought and expression, pure con-
ception and a t~ireless worker. The
meeting has resulted in q number of
conversions and accessions to the
church."

her five and twentieth year,
She had yet the world beiors her
naught Of past to dread Or fear
And she looked with happy longing, as
the years before her stood
Richer, brighter, better, broader-heri-
tage of womanhood.
Past the wavering, girl;sh fancies, past
the futures fearful gloam,
For her heart had found its doubla-
settled now no more 70 roam.
So she dreamed cf happy home-iife il
to-morrow's fancy day
Home where she could sit in silence, sit
and love her life away,
Where the Joy OF loving deeply brings
no thought save that OF bliss,
Where the soIrows born OF living flee al
touch of husbands kiss,
Where the strong arm is protector, and
the weak heart strong alway,
Where the cynic's snarl is vanquished
by the sunburst of loves day,
Blessed thought CT home-life, swectel
than eyer thought beside could be
Home where two shall build thei,
heaven, loving ever perfectly,
Would the home-life be kept empty
naught beside e'er enter there2

= Fight for a Principle.

One Of the basic ideas claimed
for Democracy as a form OF govs
ernnent is that it incuicates the
strictest devotion to principle.
Thus, according to its teachings, ii
it becomes question Of personal
emolgmeut IS against devotion to
lis fundamental truths, there must
not be a moments hesitation as TO
which course TO pursue- Rather
the nominal ignominy of defeat
and degradation than the real dis
grace of violating ia the least de-
gree the sacred obligations of duty.
One Of these foundation stones
OF Democracy is the right of every
man to form his own opinion, hold
on to it and fight for it to the Bit
ter end. No other course is recog-
nized. Let fidelity to an honest
conviction bring what It may in
its train, it must be adhered to.
Of course, where Democracy as
a party is strongest it is expected
that the principles of Democracy
should be rooted firmest. Whether
the supposition is universally ap-
plicable or not there can be no
doubt Of it in sections. Texas has
long been G banner State of this
great political organization, and
Texas now claims attention as WV
idly illustrating that particular
principle to which reference has
just been made.
How powerful the Democ ratio
obligation to cling to what he be-
lieyos to be right strikes the
Texan of this faith may be judged
by the fact that in the Twelfth
Congressional district there 600
ballots had to be taken before
candidate was nominated, and in
the Seventh at last accounts 1887
ballots were gone through witha
out apparently coming any nearer
to a choice Philadelphia Times.

The Great Issue.

Mr.. Harrison's convention of his
Office holders that gaYe him a re-
nomination, when he Was not first

party, adopted a platform dictated
by their master upou which the is
sues of the campaign are made up.
One of its main planks was the ini-
quitous and doubly damned. infam-
Gus force bill, the darling pet meas
ure of the administration in the last
congress, upon which it relied for a
perpetuation of It's poE er even ct the
expense Of the liberties of the coun-
try and the ultimate destruction OF
our system of free government.
Every Republican state conven-
ton that has since assembled, has
Incorporated this measure into their
creed.
The Republican party as a party
has made it the leading issue in the
present campaign, and the Demo.
cratic party will hold them to it.
In tie presence Of this damnable
Davenport device, with its bayoneted
ballots, all other issues are secondary

to the interests of the people, not
alone of the South, against which It
was chiefly aimed, but also against
Democratic strongholds in all Of the
states Of the Union.

lent after feasting upon the helpless
and defeGseless public, aud after

For Register ofDeeds.

Dear 1rgas: AS the time draweth
nigh for the assembling Of ths
county nominating convention
please aliew me little space in your
valuable paper to present to the con
sideration Of this convention the
name of e. E. Grantham for Reg
lister Of Deeds.sGid is too well known
all over the county for any words OF
praise from me; but when | am
aware Of the fact that I have been in
constant association with HIM since
| was a child, and know of his many
rare and excellent qualities, I can't
quite keep quiet. Besides this we
are getting ready for a hot campaign:
as we haYe now the devil and all his
angels to fight, we certainly need
our strongest and most available
men on the ticket. In Gid E. Gran
than we have solid Democrat
who has spent his time and means
for the success of the party-a man
whose character is undefiled, pure
and stainless-a man who is kind
and charitable, always ready to help
those in need; by his pureness of
heart and generous and obliging dis
position he commands the highest
regard from all who know him. And
last, but not least, he can carry as
many Democratic votes IN his town
ship as D. A. Grantham did twelve
years ago, and that was enough to
perch victory upon our banner.
I hope the convention will not for
get these facts in making a selection
for Register OF Deeds. We will stand
by him with that zeal that carries
triumph to our cause.
Now a few words to the Demo
Gratis o. Grantham's township and 1
will close. lis rumored that jos
E. Byrd is to be the nominee from
this township for Tax Collector, but
I hope TIE report is untrue. Now,
I can't conceive the idea that our
Democrats will so far lose sight OF
themselves as to even mention Byrd's
name for any office. He is the same
little Singing Byrd that failed te
give $500 constable bond o few
years ago, after we troubled the com
missioners to appoint him, and is
the same big hearted Democratic
Byrd that four years ago SO bitterly
denounced D. c. Grantham for
bolting the Democratic party. and
run independent for constable; and
he is the same Grow Byrd that two
years ago bolted the Democratic par
ty and run independent for consta-
bic, and in spite of his going among
the negroes and folding his name in
with their ticket he got left beyond,
well-beye- recognition. Now,
brethren, please don't say anything
more about this perfidious little
Byrd for any Office. l don't vote for
bolters, perJurers and drunkards.

Public Schools.

In answer to Enquiry" we give
the following facts on this subject:
In 1868 there were, practically,
no public schools in the State. From
1868 to 1870 there were only dis
bursed for public schools about
$4,000, while the balance of the
school fund, over a thousand dollars,
was voted by the republican legisla-
tors to pay their per diem So much
for what the Republicans did for
education in two years. Of course,
there were, practically, no public
schools.
Into 1870 the Democrats came in
to power, and in 1877 there were
3,378 public schools taught for
white children, and 1,761
taught for colored children. In
1878 there were 146.6S1 white chill
dren, and 81.411 colored children
enrolled on the public school books.
The average school term was nine
weeks per year.
In 1888 there were 4,438 public
schools taught for white children,
and 2,317 for colored children. The
school books show an enrolment in
1888, of 211, 1,498 white children, and
125, 1884 colored-the average school
term being 123 weeks per year.
In 1891 there were 4,574 public
schools taught for white children,
and 1890 for colored; and an enroll
ment of 214.9O7 of white children
and 1852 colored-the average
school term being 123 weeks.
In 1892 the increased taxation
will make the average school term
about IA weeks, and will show the
amount disbursed for school pur-
poses to be about $500, 900. Thus it
will be seen that the public school
system, under our excellent Demo-
cratic superintendents, sustained by
Democratic legislation. hrs been
prosperous from year to yes I. This
is clearly evidenced by the fact that
the first year of Democratic rule in
the State $177,497.94 were disbursed
for public school purposes, in 1881,
$409, ,65S.S8; in 1888, $691, 1880,
and in 1892, as stated, about $780,
600. Do our people want the public
schools closed and the school fund
taken to pay negro legislators? If
not, they can prevent it by voting
the Democratic ticket and no other
way.-RaleigA Chronicle.
