HIGH COMPLIMENT.
Col. w. II. S. Burgwyn for President
of the University.

OF the university.
From among number of suggestions
by various papers in the State, of the
name of one of our most prominent
and distinguished citizens in connec-
ton with the vacancy caused by the
resignation of DR.. Winslow as presi-
dent of the University, we clip the
following from the Elizabeth City Econ
omist. We heartily endorse all that
Colonel Creecy says of our distin-
guished friend and feel sure that should
the management of our greatest State
institution be entrusted to his hands he
would fill the position with honor to
himself aud in manner to rival the
great success which has attended the
administration of the great men who
for hundred years have kept our Uni
versity among the first of Southern in
situations of learning.
Brother Creecy says:
Being in the Senior class OF the Alum
nj OF the University, and always interest
ed in it's welfare, the subject OF a success
or to DR.. Winston as President OF onr
alma mater has for sometime had mnch
will be pardoned for suggesting to the
Trustees of the University us a successor
to DR.. Winston the name of one who
would follow the footsteps of President
Winston, non inequis possisabus, whose lit
erary culture is OF the highest order,
whose executive ability and business
capacity has been recognized in various
avOcations, whose success in life has been
distingised, who is in the meridian OF life
and health and vigor, and who IS thor
oughly identified with North Carolina
by interest and affection, and by a
long line of disting uished lineage. That
man is W. II. S. Burgwyn OF Henderson,
NC.
Many of the names that have been
suggested for the Presidency OF the Uni
versity are men OF mark and We greatly
admire those we have known, but there
is no one that combines so many quail
fications for the place asiMr. Burgwyn.
He has the energy, push, pluck and per
severance that characterized DR.. VIM
ston, and he is of the same type OF man.
The University would be in safe hands,
with him as its chief executive.

Last summer one of our grand children
was sick with severe bowel trouble. Our
doctors remedies had failed, then we tried
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and DiarrhGa
Remedy, which gave very speedy relief.
We regard it as the best medicine ever put
on the market for bowel complaints-Mrs.
E. G. Gregory, Frederickstown, Mo. This
certainly is the best remedy ever put on the
market for dysinterry, summer complaint,
collie and cholera infantum in children. 1t

ussd in reasonable time and the plain
printed directions are followed. Many
mothers have expressed their sincere graft
tude for the cures it has effected. For sale

Accor ling to q celebrated anatomist
there are upwards of 100000 little
glands in the human stomach. These
glands pour out the digestive juices
which dissolve Or digest the food. Indi-
gestion is want of juice, weakness of
glands, need of help to restore the health
of these organs. The best and most
natural help is that given by Shaker
Digestive Cordial. Natural, because it
supplies the materials needed by the
glands to prepare the digestive juices.
Because it strengthens and invigorates
the glands and the stomach, until they
are able to do their work alone. Shaker
Digestive Cordial cures indigestion GER
tainly and permanently. 1t does so by
natural means, and therein lies the Sc
cret of its wonderful and UNMARRIED sue
cess.

is the purchase of thirty acres of peat
land located near Westminster, in Or
ange county, by w. F. Phillips, who
promises to supply peat for fuel If any
body wants it, but proposes to hedge
against lack of business by planting the
land to vegetables. AS the price of the
land was only $500 per acre, while II is
as fertile as anything that the sun
shines on. the venture is likely to prove
financial success whether or not the
demand for peat fuel materializes.

but Italian, managed to say that his boy
left home on Tuesday and he had since
been hunting for him. The boy spoke
good English and said he had run away

not give him a note to his teacher at
school explaining the reason for his abb
sence from his studies. The boy was
picked up on Main street on Wednesday

as a runaway. Henry said he had been

appear to you almost as imperfect in
their functions as the zoophytes of the
polar sea have a sphere of sensibility
and intellectual enjoyment far superior
to that Of the Inhabitants Of your earth.
Each Of those tubes which appear like
the trunk Of an elephant is an organ of
peculiar motion or sensation. They
have many modes Of perception of
which you are wholly ignorant and al
the same time their sphere Of vision is
Infinitely more extended than yours
and their organs of touch far more per-

sources Of pleasure are Of the highest
Intellectual nature. AsI can
not describe to you the organs of these
wonderful beings, SO neither can show
you their modes of life. But as their
highest pleasures depend upon intel
lectual pursuits, so you may conclude
that these modes Of life bear the strict
est analogy to that which on the earth
you would call exalted virtue.
If 1 were to show you the different parts
of the surface Of this planet you would
see marvellous results of the powers
