PHILLIPS BROOKS, BISHOP OF MAS
sAcHUSE77S, DEAD.

Rt. Rev. Phillips Brooks died at
his home ill Boston, Mass, on the
% iust., and in his death the Pros
testant Episcopal church undoubta
y loses its greatestB ishop.Since the
death OF Canon Liddon, ofEnglann.
Bishop Brooks, as a preacher, has
not had a peer. Vast multitudes
have sat tpeil-bound under the
mighty torrent of aimcs t inspired
eloqutnce that flowed without a
break from his lips. When it was
known that Phillips Brooks was to
preach in any church. that church
was strained to it's utmost seating
capacity. 1t was an unusual
thing for him to see the aisles of
the church in which he preached.
Boston and New England do not
contain all the admirers of this
great man; for indeed they are
everywhere, both in and out of the
Episcopal church. Goldsboro is
strong in her love for Phillips
Brooke, and many a heart here will
be saddened by his unlooked-fo r
death. Pneumonia produced heart

KOONCE VS., GRADY.

the OlueOHlt0 CduuludtG
against Hon, B. F. Grady il the
second Congressional district in the
last election, is now GROWING his
supreme folly by contesting the
l~atter's seat in the coming Congress,
Hon. f. M. Simmons has been
employed by Mr.. Grady to represent
him before the committee, and from
the latter's "answer," which We were
permitted the privilege of reading
yesterday, w have copied the fol-
lowing pungent conclusion to his
very able and comprehensive pre-
sentation of the case.
Further answering the said notice,
and expressly reservlng the right to
amend or supplement this answer, l
charge and allege that many of the
votes cast for you at said election
and counted for you by the said
Boards of County Canvassers in
Craven, Jones, Onslow, Duplin.
Sampson, Bladen, Cumberland and
Moo e counties, to wit: the mum
Der of several thousard,voted for sou
through duress and the fear of pun
ishment and expulsion; and said
votes ought not to have been counted
for you by the said Boards, because
they did not express the will and
wish of the electors SO casting them.
That for the purpose of unlaw-
fully, fraudulently and %corruptly
controlling, Influencing and coerc-
ing the electors in said District and
in the State of North Carolina, to
vote for you aud the other Candidates
of the so-called Pecp'es' party at
said election, there was organized
and existed in said District and in
the several counties comprising it,
both before and on the day of said
election, an unlawful, oath-bound
secret political society, known as the
"Gldeons' Band', the members of
which were required and did bind
themselves by SOLEMN oaths and
obligations under the penalty of
death, to act and vote as directed by
the Chief Of said "Band", without
question or cavil and without re-
gard to their Judgment, conscience
or duty; and the Chief of said
"Baud" and his sub-chiefs in the
several counties in said District be-
ing your friends and favoring your
election, ~conspired and confederated
together and with you to unlawfully,
fraudulently and by force and threats
of expulsion and punishment for
dlsobedience as aforesaid, over-awe,
intimidate, coerce and compel the
SURFACES of a large number of elec-
tors, members of said "Band', and
through its banefrl influence a large
number of electors, not members
thereof, to vote for you at said elecs
ton, to-wit: 200 electors in Craven
County, two hundred and fifty in

Duplin County, three hundred and
fifty in Sampson County, one hun
dred and fifty in Bladen County,

chiefs and their willing coadjutors
IN said "Band", overriding and dom
their will and wish, would

for you did not express their soYs
