people can attend the fair, they should

compelled to work more than six days
in each week.

The Newbern Journal on Gov. Holt's Ad-
ministration,

The administration of Gov. Holt
has been characterized by great prac-
tical ability, high common sense, and
by the most patriotic devotion to the
honor and interests of the State. He
seems to be, from his intellectual en-
dowment, and his enlarged and varied
business experience, common GEN.
ter, about which all the Democratic
elements of the State could rally,
with the brightest prospects of
succe IS in the approaching campaign.
He is a farmer, manufacturer, well
equipped politician, a patriotic states
man, and a typical Democrat. The
interest of no class of Democrats
could, if entrusted to his care, suffer
injury, for the reason that he is the
personal and interested representative
of each class. We hail him as one OF
the people, and devoted to the people
and he is entitled to receive the high.
est consideration and warmest com
mendatien from the people.

W. L. Royal Lectures in Richmond on

RICHMOND, Va, March 22.-Mr.
VIM. NJ. Royal delivered a lecture
here tonight, at the Richmond thea
tire, on the life, times and "reminiscences
of the private soldier Of the Confed-
crate soldier. Mr.. Royal was pris-
oner of war at Fort Delaware from
June, 1864, to June, 1865. In the
course of his lecture he stated that the
rations furnished the prisoners were
four ounces of bread and one ounce
and quarter Of salt pork when it was
pork, or one ounce and three-quarters
of fresh beef, when it was fresh meat
That they were given only two II eals
day, no coffee, but occasionally a
small cup of thin soup and that vital
statistics show that man compelled
to live on this amount of food, must
die of slow starvation. He said he
had many times seen prisoners
scramble over the slop tubs. as they
were being carried from the kitchen to
be emptied into the river for pieces Of
bread or meat. He said the prisoners
were in open barracks, practically
without fire; that the prison regula-
tions only allowed each prisoner
one blanket; that a friend in the \ Orth
occasionally sent him money, with
which he always bought blankets but
that once in every two weeks the
whole prison was ''hacked out" fan(
every blanket excepting one was takel
from each prisoner. He said that th
prisoners were half frozen during al
the cold weather; that they never ha
half enough to eat, and that life wa
day by day succession of miserie
that could not be described.
