A GOOD BILL.

A bill has been introduced in the
New York legislature making it a
criminal offense for a newspaper to
make false statements as to its cir
culation in order to obtain advertis-
ing.
It is said that the bill will surely
pass. 1t ought to pass and there
should be such a law in every state.
A newspaper that lies about its
circulation to increase its patronage
is clearly guilty of obtaining goods
under false pretenses and should be
treated like any other swindler.
The Chicago News puts the case
correctly when it says:
"The statement regarding the
circulation of a paper should be as
truthful and correct as that made
by an honest banking Institution.
The advertiser should he assured
that he is getting the worth of his
money, and when deceived should
have soma means of inficting pun
ishment."

Hon. Thomas R. Jernigan.

The many friends and admirers
of Hon. Thomas r. Jernigan will
read his card elsewhere published
with unfeigned regret. On his re-
turn from Japan, nearly four years
ago, Mr.. Jernigan at once entered
journalism here at Raleigh and inv
mediately took rank with the fores
most editors of the South, and has
rendered the Democratic party fine
service-especially in North Caros
lima, where he has been amongst
the unfinching supporters of the
Democratic organization and Dem
ocra:ic principles when secret and
open wal was being made against
them by adroit men who handled
their specious arguments with
great persistence and power.
Indeed, Mr., Jernigan proved an
example for other editors, and
greatly strengthened the Demos
cratic by his devotion and
answering fealty to the Demo-
cratic organization. And his re-
tirement from the field of journal
ism will be regretted by none more
than his brothers who haye learnt
to appreciate that he is as sound
tn doctrine as he is brilliant and
masterful in composition.
1t is understood that he will now
seek an appointment in the Census
lar service, a position for which he
is especially equipped by training
and experience. He was one of our
Consuls in Japan under Mr.. Cleves
lands former administration, and
he achieved such a fine reputation
as a representative of our gov
eminent, that the japanese
Minister at Washington has ex~
pressed a particular wish to the
Department that he should be res
turned to that country. Ex-Gov.
Porter, Of Tennessee, who is now
Minister to Chill and who was the
first Assistant Secretary of State
under Cleyeland's former admin
istration, bears testimony that Mr..
Jernigan's "record grades with
the best known to our foreign sers
vice." while Gov. Hubbard of
Texas, who was our minister to
Japan, gives him the highest ems
dorsement as being thoroughly
acquainted with consular duties.
At home Mr.. Jernigan has the
merited endorsement Of the Exes
cutive and judicial departments OF
this State, and also of a large
number Of the leading and most
Influential men of North Caros
lima.
Indeed, SO generally is he en-
doreed, ard SO much interested are
the people of North Carolina in his
appointment, that this appoint
ment when made, should be made
from the State at large, and not be
credited to any particular section
or district of our commonwealth.
We trust that his desires may be
attained at an early date.-Ra-
leigh Neaos, Observer.

A Skeleton in the Street.

AS the street force was grading
Broad street yesterday a whole hu :
man skeleton was dug up about a
foot below the surface. It was bur-
led lying east and west just as the
street runs and exactly in the mid
die of the street, in front of Mrs,
Windley's residence. 1t was of such
an age the bones could be crumbled
to pieces in the hands almost as
easily as a piece of dry hard clay.
The teeth were perfectly preserved,
but the skull had been broken in.
A ~retreating forehead indicated that
the individual vas of some other
than the Caucasian race. There
was no sign Of a box or coffin: no
nails, screws or handles, which would
be almost sure to be there if one
had been used-could be found.
An explanation of the body's not
being any deeper in tie ground lies
in the fact that that portion Of the
street is an elevated one and the
road bed has at soma former period
been made lower than it formerly
was. But how came the body there
at all? None could tell and it is
not at all likely that any more
light will aver be thrown on the
subject. Conjectares were rife, but
the nearest any n came to SOLVING
the problem was to suppose that it
was an Indian. There is a tradi-
ton that prior to the coming of De
G~raffenrejd to this country, when the
present site of Newbern vas an In
dian village named Chatoka, that
this burying ground was in the vi
cinity where the skeleton was ex-
humed.-New6ern Journal.

the House of Commons. and for-
merly Chief Secretary of Ireland,
arrived in Belfast tosday to deliver
the addresses in support of the ul-
ster Unionists to home rule, a
vast concourse greeted Balfour on
bis arrival, and thousands of Un.
ionists cheered loudly as he made
his appearance. The multitude was
so enthusiastic that they took the
horses out of the carriage which
bore the Conservative Statesman
and eagerly sought the honor OF
drawing the vehicle through
the streets. There was an
extensive display of flags, and
bands played Orange and
Loyalist airs. The numerous depu.
tations presented a formal and
cordial greeting to the ex-Secretary,
dwelling upon the loyalty of Ulster
to the Union with Great Britain
and extolling the services of Bal
four to the canse. Balfour replied
with an earnest declaration of his
resolution of the Conservatives te
resist home rule to the utmost. A.

enthusiastic greeting, :

THE DUTY OF TIE HOUR.

It will be we'll enough, for the in
terest of our country, that we con.
slider the demands of the present
time, and endeavor, as far as in us
lies. to see to their success.
The history of the decline and
fall of the Roman Empire is indeed
a warning to US.
1t is true, that, ostensibly, it seems
as if undue taxation was the cause,
but this, when fairly examined, was
not the primary cause, but really
and obviously an effec-. Let us
see: The people had become de-
moralized on account of their las
%civious disposition,an the tendency
to luxurious living.
Every conceivable means was
used to cater to their sensual appe-
titles, and any and everything that
would conduce to that end, was Gag
erly seized upon and made available
for that purpose, and the people be-
came a sensuous mass, and the en-
pire fell.
The fact is, all physical degener-
alton, to a more OIL less extent, weak
ems the body polite, and its constit-
uents become e~nerTated. Our coun-
try, it seems to US, alas! is now
threatened with this fearful evil
We are very far from being a pessi-
mist, and yet We cannot resist the
conviction, that the manly charac-
ter of our people is in danger in this
direction.
By a surprising verdict of the
people the Democracy has attain ed
to a lofty and powerful position,
and upon it has devolved the i'm
potant duty of bringing order out of
chaos, and the Government back to
the sound, healthy and vigorous
principles that governed us in tn.
days of Democratic administration.
The fabulous fortunes made by
many an adventurer within the last
fourth of a ceLtury has even leen
the means of controlling legislation,
and inaugurating the reign of a
plutocraey, which, If not checked.
will result in disastrous effects.
In Grover Cleveland we believe
we have the man who, if faithfully
aided, will see to it that all these
evils entailed upon us by the unwise
administration of a misguided
power, shall be removed and g
healthier influence prevail.
Let us, then, lay aside all personal
ard selfish feelings and rally to the
support of the administration that
Judging from the character Of the
men composing it, bids fair to bring

lover note, requesting that he would
have carriage in waiting in the shady
lane at eight o'clock that evening, to
take them to the nearest railroad sta
tion.
How delighted the dear boy would
be to find his troubles ended at last );
and surely he would prize and love
her all the more for the trials
through which they had passed.
1t was rainy evening, yet punctual
to her appointment, Miss Fitzsimmons
was in the lane as the town clock
struck, disguised this time in q cloak
and sunbonnet over her handsome
travelling suit.
There was no carriage in sight, and
after waiting an hour, she concluded
to go to Carols studio, feeling sure
that he could not have received her
note.
She found the door open, and step
ping within discovered everything as
usual, except that the artists palette
and brushes lay strewn about the floor
as if purposely thrown there, while
Miss Waymack's portrait, still mounted
on the easel, was adorned with a pair
of spectacles, and moustache daubed
across the upper lip.
While Elaine gazed wouderingly at
this singular conception, there entered
the old woman whose duty it had been
to keep his studio in order.
"Where is Mr.. Caroli?" inquired
Elaine, hastily.
"Deary me miss you don't mean as
you haven't heard the news?" ans
wered the old woman, with something
of pity in her tone.
"What news?"
"Why, that Mr.. Carols gone away,

nine o'clock train-him and Miss
Josephire-to get married, Miss
"Married?" shrieked Elaine.
"To be sure, miss the which it's my
opinion they ought to be- ashamed OF
themselves, though he did tell me /

guv me besides"
But Elaine heard no more. The
shock was too great for her, and she
tainted.
Mr.. Fitzsimmons took his daughter
abroad with him that summer. On
her return she married the sensible.
practical son of her fathers business
partner, who had long been devoted to
her, and to whom she makes good
wife.
She has never been known to allude
to the pretty and fanciful little romance
which she had arranged, and which
ended in real one upon which she
had not counted Saturday Night.
