The Condition of the Crops-East

bSnu commencement EXC.
.rresponderce Of The Sentinel
MANA, n. c., NJ ay 22.-The wealth
er is beginning to get very warm and
it is bringing out corn very rapidly.
Some of the farmers are over their
corn crop first time. Very little to-
bacco is planted yet. Farmers only
waiting for a season. The crop will
be fully up to the average, but the
farmers have also increased their corn
crops. Wheat is heading out well
and oats are doing fairly Well. Quite
d number of farmers yet have part of
their last years tobacco on hand hon
ing for Il rise IN prices. Bugs ar d
flies are damaging tobacco plants
that have been transplanted very
much.
Mr.. j. Springer Conrad, of Lexing-
ton, spent last week here at his old
home. He speaks of going to Wins
ton, as he is closing up his tobacco
business in Lexington.
Rev. Il. G. Myers, of this county,
delivered a very able and eloquent
lecture here Sunday in the Baptist
church to very large and attentive
audience. 1t was one of the best lee
lures the writer has had the pleasure
of hearing for some time.
Rey. Stanly May, our pastor, filed
the pulpit on Saturday and delivered
well-Seasoned sermon.
The commencement exercises of
the various excellent schools of the
county are the order of the day now,
and if weather is fair, the crowd that
will attend East Bend commence
ment 18th and 26th will be very large.
The program is a very fine one, be-
sides President Ciewell, of the Salem
Female Academy, will deliver an ad-
dress to the scholars. Health of the
section still remains good.

Dizziness in Tobacco Manufacture.

The dizziness in tobacco manufac-
turing in the past few months is strik-
ingly illustrated, says the Western
Tobacco Journal, in comparisons be-
tween the manufacture of the first
four months of 1892 and 1893 In the
first four months of this year the
total does not exceed 81, 600, 900 pounds,
as against s., 3l5, 900 pounds the, same
period of 1892, showing a clear decline
of at least 100000 pounds, which, if
continued throughout the year,
would show practically 10000, 900
pounds of shortage, whereas in form
er years tie increase was always from
100000 to 100000 pounds. OF
course we do not look for such de-
cline as is indicated above, as later
along manufacturing will improve,
but it is questionable if 1893 will eX-
coed 1895 figures much in tobacco,
and if it does not the loss of the nat
ural increase will be something that
manufacturers will regret.

AS THE NEW YEAR.

In the year just ushered in, as in the
one just kicked out by Col. Father Time,
THE GLOBE proposes to sttemp printing
news, it proposes to be honest in what
it says, and it proposes to uphold Right
no matter how humble the author Of
that right-ara it proposes to denounce
Wrong, no matter how prominent may
be the author of that wrong.
There is nothing in sight for newspa.
per in North Carolina, yet THE GLOBE has
demonstrated the fact that fearlessness
and honesty are respected-and that
they will finally triumph.
We want to keep up with the times,
and will try TO be as entertaining as pos
sible, and suggest to those not now in
the ranks, that this is very good time
to subscribe

THE WIDOWS AND ORPHANS.

The following from our esteemed co.
lab0rer in the cause of truth and eternal
Justice, the New York Morning Adver
tiser, is worth a short talk about:
AS we understand it, the remarks Of
COLONEL FAIRBROTHER, editor Of The
DURHAM On. c. GLOBE, concerning the
personal character of pensioners do not
apply to the southern gentlemen who
served in the war with Mexico and after
wards in the Confederate army, their
widows, orphans, heirs, administrators or
assigns. 1t is our impression that they
are intended to apply only to the Union
army pensioners If we are in error We
will be glad to be corrected by our es
teemed friend, the Tearing Terror Of the
Tar Heel State, in such moderate terms
as he may see fit to employ.
The widows and the orphans, indeed
Their heirs and assigns-bah
According to the history, and modern
history runs pretty straight, the Mexican
war ended about forty-five or fortysix
years ago!
Then what a charming lot Of helpless
orphans-45 years of age-must now be
on the cold yet tender-if even clammy
charities of this great government!
Bring up the orphans and let US count
'em-let us look 'em square in the face,
and let our old callOused heart bleed a
tub Of blood for 'em.
In opposing such sentimental claptrap
no Tearing Terror, or fearful Terror of
any state, could use moderate language.
The fact of the business is we cannot
write more concerning those poor little
shivering and hungry 10 year old or
phans!
Our eyes are filled with salted steers
our hand must drop the pencil and reach
for our pocket. book.
Aye, COCKERILL, it's terrible--it's tuff :,

WHAT IT HAS DONE.

OF the many institutions established in
North Carolina during the year just
closed-and there have been many-in-
stitutions which have added thousands
to our population and put in motion
hundreds Of wheels which are to work
untold wonders in developing the grand
resources of one Of the richest states in
the Union, none has made better time in
the march of real progress than the in
stitution which has restored to honor
and usefulness many of the brightest in
telIects in the state, and given them the
moral courage to do and dare.
This is what KELLEY has done, and
this is why North Carolina counts it a
lucky day when, through the liberaliy
and enterprise of few Durham citizens,
an institute for the cure Of unfortunates
who loved too we'll the flowing bowl, was
established within her borders.
Since the day it was opened, the his
tory Of the Greensboro institute has been
a succession of triumphs - triumphs
which have laughed at science as held by
the medical profession, triumphs which
spread the fame of the wonderful cures
and brought hundreds Of patients from
all parts Of the country to be healed
by it.
The Greensboro institute lacking room
TO accommodate so many, another was
established at TarbOro for the cOnve-
nienCe Of those living in the eastern part
Of the state, and that, too, has met with
unprecedented success.
The fact that few o. the worse cases
who took the treatment have fallen,
argues nothing in the face of the thou
sands who have been perfectly restored
physically, morally and intellectually
and who have borne testimony to it's
efficacy as speedy and lasting cure fer
the drink habit, the opium habit, the
tobacco habit, and all kindred diseases
KELLEY says that inebriety Is disease
and sets about curing it as he would any
other malady. He gets at the root Of the
disorder, destroys the germ or whatever
it may be which excites thirst for alco-
h0lic stimulsntS, and in three weeks time
sends the patient home new man
healed and in his right mind
With such a remedy in reach Of all
drunkenness is no longer tolerated
There has been a perccptible falling of
in the saloon business, and the coming of
hEFLEY marks a new era in the morals
and msterial progress of the nation
