THE WcE-PREsIDeNT's SPEECH.
Some Extracts From His Address 10
the Graduates.

The first twenty minutes of the
NIce-President's speech was a pleas
ant reference to the fact that this was
the home of his ancestors, and that
he fulfilled a long cherished desire
in coming TO the University of North
Carolina. He adverted to the imr)or
tant epochs in the history of North
Carolina, and named the declaration
at Mecklenburg in connection with the
grant of the Magma Charta at Runnv-
mede. The Vice-President then gave
statesman-like discussion of the a.
doption of the Constitution. and its
perfection as evidenced during the long
time 1t has met the needs of the Amer
lean people, and the growth and
changing conditions of our ciyiliza-
ton. Concluding he said:
/ trust that no apology is needed
for the brief reference. to the glorious
achievements of our ancestors. One
of the greatest of modern writers has
truly said: "a people which takes no
pride in the noble achievements of
remote ancestors, will never achieve
anything worthy to be remembered
with pride by remote descendants"
Let me here recall, young gentlemen,
the words of admonition of Washing
ton as he laid down the great office
to which he had been twice elevated
by his grateful countrymen. The hun
dred years that have passed since these
words were uttered have not lessened
their value.
He said: "The great rule of con
duct for us, in regard to foreign ma
tions, is in extending our commercial
relations, to have with them as little
political connection as possible. 1t is
our true policy to steer clear of per-
manent alliances with any portion of
the foreign world. Taking care always
to keep ourselves, by suitable estab-
lishments, in n respectable defensive
posture, we may safely trust to tenn
porary alliances for extraordinary pur-
poses. Harmony and liberal inter
course with all nations are recon-
mended by policy, humanity and in
terest. Constantly keeping in view
that it is folly in one nation to look
for disinterested favors from another;
that it must pay with a portion of its
independence for whatever it NAV
accept under that character, there
can be no greater error than to expect
or calculate upon real favors from ma
tion to nation. 1t is an illusion which
experience must cure, which a just
pride ought to discard"
While we believe that "our greatest
interest is peace" yet, we cannot close
our eyes to the perils that possibly in

A LYNCHING is PROBABLE
All Cherokee County Excited Over a
Horrible Crime.

Murphy, N. c., June 4.-(SpeciaD-
Special deputies, Bell and Beavers
brought Angus Brown to town to-day
and lodged him in Jail, charged with
the heinous crime of committing rape
On Mrs. Robert Hampton, young
married woman, whose baby is only
five months old.
The crime was perpetrated in Hot
House township, and it was all the Of
ficers could do to keep the people from
lynching Brown, who was at the time
under the influence of whiSkey.
He went to Hampton's house, drag
ged Mrs. Hampton out in the woods,
struck her three blows on the head
with a fire shovel, one lick cutting to
the skull, and was only frightened off
be hearing some one shout in the dis
tance.
In less than twenty minutes after
committing the crime, he was caught
and ordered to Jail by the magistrates.
The injuries of Mrs. Hampton will
probably cause her death. Her hus-
band was away from home at the time
the deed was done.
Brown has a bad character. He
has only part of his skull now, the
result of a fracas at Ducktown some
time ago. He may yet be lynched.
