at noon. Their evolutions were
highly successful. The vessels of
the American squadron have con-
tinued to be objects of admiration
aud curiosity to the officers of all

without exception, have inspect
ed them. The consensus of opin-
ion is that the San Francisco is
the neatest, cleanest and smart

Columbia one of the finest and
best.

Tribute to Minister Ransom
ON the Two Republics.

From the Two Republics.
The THO Republics announced a
few days ago thot Hon. Matt W.
Ransom, United States Minister
to Mexico, who had been taking
the baths at Topo Chico, near
Monterey, for the benefit of his
health, had gone to the United
States on a sixty days leave
of absence.
This news probably came as a
surprise to many of our readers,
owing to the fact that Mr. Ran
som had been in Mexico but a
short time. The condition of
Mr.. LRansom's health rem
dered this step advisable, if
not absolutely necessary. AS a
matter of fact, Mr.. Ransom ar
rived at Mexico i'll and has not
been a well man since he came.
He now returns to the United
States for the purpose of recov-
ering his health, and everybody,
regardless of nationality, who
had the pleasure of meeting him
while in the city, will join in the
hope that that purpose may be
realized to the fullest. MIR. Ran
som made a most excellent i'm
preston during his stay here in
this capital, not alone on his
countrymen, but on other for
eigners, and especially on Mexi-
cans. His information is vast
and varied, his experience, in
war and in peace, is most extern
sive and interesting, his man
ners are elegant and genial, and
altogether he possesses exactly
the qualities that go to make up
a charming personality and
| which are supposed to be indis-
Ipensable to an accomplished dip
lOmat.
His first official act, the pre-
senting of his credentials to
President Diaz, marked an era in
Mexican diplomacy; his address
on that occasion is pronounced
the most remarkable, the most
sincere and the best of it's kind
on record in this country, and
was commented on ~favorably by
by the press, and in a two-col
umn editorial by the Partido
Liberal, which paper bestowed
upon it the most enthusiastic
and unstinted praise. In com
menting on his reception anc
speech, a European paper pub
lished in this city called on dip
lomats in future to follow the Elk
ample set by Mr.. Ransom in two
respects, viz: by speaking
frankly and sincerely and also
by showing that Difference and
respect to the National palace
that it's history, uses and sur
roundings deserve.
In short, MIR. Ransom's recep
ton in Mexico, official and un
official, taken in conjunction
with the admirable qualities
which adorn him, place him in
position to become a most inhu
entail and useful minister, and i
would be a matter of deep regre
should the condition of his health
prevent his return to his post o
duty. Mr.. Ransom's host o
friends, Americans and Mexican
here, most earnestly hope tina
his health will permit him to re
turn and that the end of his leav'
of absence will find him in
stalled in the legation in again
in this CITY.

LOCAL BRIEFS.

LICE have made their appear
ance on cotton in some sections
of this county. The cool weather.
especially cool nights, is said to
be the cause.

titles of tobacco fues that are
being shipped from this city
daily the tobacco industry must
be on a boom.
The excursionists of Durham
seemed to enjoy themselves very
much and expressed themselves
Is being greatly pleased with our
city and people. We will be glad
to have them come again.
PEACHES and apples have
made their appearance for sale
on the streets. The peaches are
of fair quality, the apples small
and very inferior.
SOME improvements are being
made to the side walks on West
Centre street. A substantial
brick pavement is being put
down and the walks graded.
Mr.. E. T. Atkinson, County
Examiner, desires US to an'
nounce that the examination for
white teachers will begin the 1st
Monday in July, and will close
the Wednesday evening follow
ing. The examination for col
ored teachers will begin Thurs
day July 4, and will close the
Saturday following.
YESTERDAY several of our
citizens attended a large picnic
near Princeton at Poplar
Springs, whose waters possess
rare medicinal qualities. The
spring was but recently discov-
cred and is owned by MI r. H,
Baker. The visitors n loud in
their praises of this fine water
and of the generous hospitality
of Joe Perry and his clever
neighbors who know so we'll how
to prepare some of the best
barbecue they ever ate.
A CANNING factory in a small
way is one of the new industries
talked about being started soon.
We see no reason why such an
industry would not pay and pay
we'll in this city. Large quaint
ties of fruit and vegetables are
shipped away from here that
could be used if there was a fac
tory. Many of these VI sent
away and sold at a small price
and sent back to us and sold at a
good profit. The sooner our
people look to their home inter
ests more closely the sooner they
will be prosperous and happy.
ONE of the most enjoyable al.
