THE LARGEST MEETING EVER
HELD.

Correspondence of the Progressive Farmer.
NASHVILLE, N. @.
The last regular meeting of Nash
County Alliance convened with Spring
hope Sub-Alliance, No. $50, at White
Oak church, July 10. This was much
the largest meeting we have ever held.
The crowd present was estimated by
"old war veterans" to be at least 1000.
This was a gala day for the Alliance.
Everybody seemed to enjoy it and the
meeting was very harmonious and en-
thusiastic throughout.
At about 1 o'clock the Alliance ad-
journed for dinner. Now, MI. Editor,
this reminds me that the Alliance for
got one important thing, that was to
thank those generous and noble hearted
brethren and sisters of White Oak and
vicinity for their kind and hospitabIe
reception. Surely everybody's appe-
tite must have been fully satiated with
the many good things so skillfuIIy pre-
pared by the good sisters, judging
others by ourself and the big baskets,
boxes, cart and wagon loads we saw in
passing around. During the intermis-
sion speeches wer made by Lawyer B.
+. Taylor, Rev. L. A. Lloyd and Isaiah
Carver. We have not space to COM
ment on the speeches. OF course Bros.
Lloyd and Carver have been with us
all the time; but we are very glad to
see and know that even those of the
legal professionalism not even eligible
to u Order-are now ready to join
heart and hand with US ''~hayseeders'
to battle for that grand principle which
is our motto: Equal rights to all and
special privileges to none.?'
The following officers for the ensuing
year were elected and installed: W.
"A. Moore, President; W. Fl. Robbins,
Vice President; C.H Baines, Secretary
Treasurer; Rev. T. II. Matthews, Chap
lain Rev. l. A, Lloyd, Lecturer; Isaiah
Carver, Assistant Lecturer A. D. VIII
liams, Door-keeper; Ct. M. D. Langley,
Assistant Door keeper; s.. r. Joyner,
Sergeant a farms. Executive Commit
tee, P. A, May, Gideon Coggin and V.
B. Carter. Bro. w. A. Moore was
elected delegate to the State Alliance.
After meeting in the afternoon and
finishing up what business was not
completed in the morning session, the
Alliance adjourned to meet with Oak
land Sub Alliance at our next regular
meeting iu October.
l close by saying hurrah for the Al
lance and the reform movement! We
are in it to the finish.

allowed when the levy is on personal
property. In Delaware, 9months. In
Georgia, so days. In Maryland, in the
counties outside of Baltimore, execu-
tions cannot be issued until the ensu-
ing term after the obtaining of judg-
ment. This is true both in courts Of
record and in the case of judgment be-
fore magistrates. In the city Of Balti-
more, judgments rendered in courts of
record may be superseded for 6 months
by giving security. In Minnesota, 6
months is allowed. In Nebraska, 8
months for $50 or less, 6 months from
$50 to 800, and in all other cases 9
months. In Pennsylvania, 6 months
for 5000 or less, 9 months from 5000 to
$500, n year for over $500. The same
remark applies as in the matter of
judgments by confession and warrants
of attorney, as in the case of q judg-
ment before a justice of the peace.

I've missed the so these many years.

To leave me In a vale Of tears
Without one joyful dole.

Oh do you miss me much up there

Lest mundane grief its blight invade

I'd yield it all for one brief day

For such a boon, the parting frain
To be renewed tomorrow,
I'd brook for one days feast of love,
And meet the coming sorrow.
Oh would, that now. with soul prepared,
This life might end right here
And leave this tenement of clay
Without a doubt or fear!
On upward wing I'd cleaVe the air
And soar beyond the sky
To reach hat bright, eternal home,
With the, no more to die.
The thought Of bliss like this to come
Makes death a pleasant thing,
For If it frees my soul to fly
To thee, where is the sting?
But oh, till then, III miss the sore
Impatient here I stay
And, from such bondage to be free,

HIS PAST WAS A LANK.
Pathetic Scene From One of Life's
Dramas in a Hospital.

Pathetic Scene From One of Lies
Dramas in a Hospital.
There is Sd much pathos in life that
one almost sees it at every turn of the
eye. The other day the writer dropped
into a hospital and at once noticed a
little group, a sort of a family gather
ing, in the far corner of one of the
wards. The father, a bright, brainy
man of mercantile life, had met with
an accident a year ago.
His skull had been fractured severe
ly, and it was thought at first that he
would not recover. The physician, how
ever, labored very hard on the case and
the man had become so for improved
mat he was about to be taken from the
hospital. His pretty wife and faxen-
naired and blue eyed child had called
70 see him, as they had done daily for
the weeks that his life had been hang
Ing by a thread.
On this day they found the husband
and father propped up in bed. His
eye looked bright for the first time and
the wife thought the time of recogni-
1on of her on his part had arrived.
he had failed to do so before.
James are you feeling betterG" the
pretty wife inquired, as she placed one
u her hands on his bandaged fore
mead. The patient looked at the woman
ne had once loved so well with a
S'acant stare and then mumbled out
some l~narticulate words.
Don't you know me, dear, your
Wife" cried the unfortunate woman,
SAocking back her sobs. Again the
STARE and inarticulate words.
Papa. Papar" cried the little child,
Kiss me-" stretching out her little
arms. But the little one was received
as her mother.
Papa doesn't love me any more"
Soooed the little one, as she placed her
eurly head m her mothers lap. Tears
rolled down her mothers cheeks as
sue kissed her child. She made no
reply. She couldn't.
II was what the doctors had told
U0E, Her husbands life before the
accident was a blank to him. He was
not6ing more than the babe in the
6Scaoie. He would even have to be told

va the thought that the love he once
assessed Tor her and the child was

A A KICKING MACHINE.

Correspondence of the Progressive Farmer.
GoLDsBoRO, N. Q.
1 met an old friend the other day,
and he said he was looking for some
good, honest man to kick him for vot-
ing for Mr.. Cleveland in the last cleo
ton. Says he: 1T il not often I vote
the tickst straight, but 1 thought the
Democrats should be given a chance,
so I swallowed it whole. I saw here
was a chance to sell Of your ma
chimes, 80 I asked him if he could con-
trive to kick himself. would he an
swer9 The idea struck him and he said
yes, for then 1 would know I was being
kicked by an honest nan Now this
friend is a poor man, and he wishes to
know if you would not send him the
machine. He says that he will not
need it after now, for he don't aim to
be such a fool any more. You car send
the machine to me and 1 will see that
you get your pay or the rent if you
will send it. Send it in care Of the rail
road agent. I am going to see If I can't
get him and his deputy Ito use it on
themselves while it is in the warehouse,
free of charge. Ny friend says as you
know how to work it, fix it so it will
give him a pretty good lift; and in
order that you may know what pres
sure will be necessary I will state that
he weighs about 100 lbs. However, if
I can get the agent and his deputy to
use it 1 don't know but you had better
set it a little lighter, asthe agent is
quite q delicate little fellow and will
not weigh much over 100. But that's
all right since reaecting that he is a
bicyclist and rides a great deal, and
consequently is tough where the blow
is to be received. Set it for 40 lbs.
anyway. l don't know that / shall
be able to get the agents to use it, as
they are in the employ of a great COR
poration, and they would hardly dare
to acknowledge their r I'll try to
fool them into monkeying with it
while it is in the warehouse and get
them both kicked into kingdom come.
1 may not return it for some time as 1
think there will be quite a demand for
it, especially after the tariff farce, and
I will look out for the rents.
Yours for business as well as reform.
