mustache, the eleemosynary
ewes and the double chin. Think
Of it-not simply q dimpls, but
a really well developed double
chin. The exquisite boutiniere
which always adorns the lap
pei of Col. Carr's coat is dis
played in,the cut, and none OF the
details Of his attire are neg
lected. The monogramnaic au.

Col. Carr does not received his

Of Messrs. N. w. Aver & Son.
of course some of the cuts we
have seen did not print as clear
as possible, but an ordinary cut
will not stand over 100000 inn
pressions. Besides the South
ern Newspapers Unions press
work is not always the best.
Col. Carr is an imitator OF
Wanamaker's ..metho Is and
therefore, he would make .
worthy successor of that rious
worthy. Both seem to be under
the impression that the Post
master eneralship is a posi-.
ton to be EARNED ouG"--an
official psrsimmon which the
largest advertisers pole knocks
off the tree. But Col. Carr may
as we'll understand that tn,
public is thoroughly sicksnsc
with Wanamaker and his
Cheap John, bargain counter
methods and they don't want 1
repetition of it. We suppose Mr.
| Cleveland is too.
The spectacle of a man hay
ling himself advertised for ;
position of profit and trust jus
as he would advertise the pecu
liar merits of a particular bran'
of smoking tobacco is some
thing new under the sun. Ii
mounts the auction block, dis
plays his charms, tells wher
his "peints" lie and asks for

i What next?
The editor of Webster
Weekly has expressed our view
fully in regard to the article,
such it may be called, in tn
Reidsville Review.
The wisest thing for the ed
tor of that sheet to do is to ''re
view" his life, for he will hsv
to spend much of his time i
righting his wrongs, and if h
does not begin very soon he wi
not get through. The whole @
his defamatory editorial was in
situations without any charg
whatever except that Mr.. Car
was blowing his own horn 0
words to that effect, and why
man should try to injure one O
his fellows, without 9 cause, W
are unable to see.
| We advocated, and do yet
Mr.. Carr for the important posi-
ton of Postmaster General, an,
Mr.. Carr had no hand IN it. w
received no pay for what W
did and did not expect it. w
applied to Ar. Carr for a cut o
himself, and after some della!
we got it, but no. until we wen
to his Office and called for it.
i The editor Of the Review ha
made a heavy draw upon hi
'insinuatiye" genius.
Vixen we read his famous
editorial we vera reminded of |
little rit-terrier dog that use'
to tackle every railroad engin'
that passed him, and for seyera
months he escaped injury
though at times in great peril
He became very bold and final!
stsed upon the track and defist
the engine to come in his way
These engines never stop TO
dogs-the little terrier wa
ground fine enough for sausag,
meat in a few seconds. Mr.. Car
is too heightened to take note o
the base insinuations throw
out by a little weakly weekly
and knowing as we do that th'
charges, or rather the insinua
lions, are false, we do not hest
tate tosayso. We DO not eIpsc
an appointment of any kind il
our government, and we ar
not seeking for such Whsl
Mr.. Carr lays the foundation
for abuse through the journal
Of the State then we will JON
in trying 10 Down him.
Now let 1.-THE Review" stat
its grievances, and be careful Il
state the truth.
