MI. K. E.. and DIR. J. S: Bizzen
of the firm Of Bizzell Bros & Co.,
who have been on ain extended
business trip to the leading north
ern centres of trade, making
purchases of stock, in shoes,
clothing, dress goods, notions,
dry goods. &C., for their new
business, soon to be opened here,
in their beautiful three storyiron
front corner on Walnut and West
Centre streets, returned to the
city yesterday. Their purchases
will follow rapidly, and by the
first of September they hope to
have their new stock on display
and ready for customers.
THE next great pleasure event
of the season is the cheap ex-
cursion to Norfolk and return
a two days trip, leaving here on
the morning of Tuesday, August
21st and returning on the even
ing of the next day. Fare for
the re und trip 50. IS. This will
be one of the most enjoyable ex-
cursion trips that our people
will have the opportunity of talk
ing this season. Norfolk is a
great, beautiful and populous
city, enjoying many attractions
and having one of the finest
water fronts in the country. The
excursion will be run under the
management of our townsman
Mr. r. E. Pipkin, who always
makes a success of whatever he
undertakes; consequently all
who go can be sure of a delight
full trip.
WHAT is the matter with all
the sore-head, Cleveland '.cus-
ing" Democratic(Dn of
the country that they do not
have anything to say about the
great Cleveland victory in Ala
bama? They are as dumb as the
little boy when the calf ran over
him. The Alabama Democrats
have set an example which is
worthy of imitation in every
other state. They have fought
a straight, brave battle, and have
won on principle. They have
elected a strong honest and
experienced man as Governor,
and have insured the continu-
ance of honest government in
Alabama. We congratulate the
Democracy of our sister State.
They have shown what an hon
est Democratic platform, a
simon-pure Democratic candi-
date, and a fearless fight will do
against the most threatening OPP
position.
Mr.. T. B. Lyman and family,
who have so long been residents
of Goldsbor1, and who have
hosts of friends in our commun-
ity, left yesterday for Newbern
to make their home there, as it
is more convenient for Mr.
Lyman, whose lumber milling
Interests are now centered at
Dover. Few families, if any,
tcould leave Goldsboro, whose
going would cause more sin
cere regret or whose loss to
the community would be
more generally felt in all
the avenues of daily life, in
saeiety, in church, in the sick
rooms of friends, in the homes
of the poor, than these good peo-
ple. They will not be long in
winning friends in their new
home, but they will never find
warmer ones anywhere than
those they leave behind them
here, whose good wishes and
kindly remembrances will abide
with them wherever they may
Ilgo.
