More than ten thousand people
were murdered in the United States
last year. In the year 1888 less
than four thousand were murdered.
The increase of population in seven
years has been considerable. Last
year business was bad, and people
were cross, and more murderously
inclined, no doubt, than common.
Still taking everything iato consid-
GRAFTON, the increase of murders
was astounding. II ought to be
checked, and the only practicable
way to check it is to have murder
ere suffer the legal penalty Of their
crime. It is shocking to kill any,
one, but if one aust choose between
killing the guilty after conviction
and having the innocent killed off,
hand, there cannot be any hesitation
about what duty and common.sense
demand. Murder must be made
more unpopular in the Uuited
States.-Harper's Weekly.

You have been NO prodigal sons, for

streets which thrilled to the tread
of your legious while they were
passing to the ranks Of the best
army that the world ever knew.
lou shall be confronted by the
Virginians who were the comrades of
your immortal glory and who are
your brothers forever.
You shall see again the women
who nursed you back to vigor from
the feebleness of wounds and want,
from the wretched woe of your
losses, and who pointed the dying
gaze of your fellows to the heaven
which stopped to enfold them.
Your eyes shall behold for them

from which she has emerged thing
of beauty and a joy tor always.
You shall revisit The battlefields
which have been consecrated by
your blood, and where, if you lost

Heartily helped by our city and
her citizens, we are building for you
a place of reunion in which ten

welkin ring to the music of Dixie
and to the chorus Of the Rebel yell.
On some appropriate day of the
Reunion you shall be part and par.
