THE TROUBLED IN BRAZIL.

Brazil, after two years Of
peace-that is, some two years
of about as much peace IS the
average South American repub-
lie could be expected to enjoy
mas another revolution to deaI
with. The first news of the outs
break, which, SO far, is confined
to the province Of Bahia, was
that it was caused by religious
fanaticism, and was a sort OF
Mahdist movement. AS such, the
Brazilian Government seems tc
have been disposed, ia the lbs
cipiency Of the movement, to
treat it, but the experience OF the
several comparatively small mill
itary expeditions that were sent
against the insurgents points to
the conclusion that the inspira~
ton is not altogether religious
The fanatics" were found to
have .planned their campaign
with great military skill, and the
fact, together with the supplies
and the character of the arms
ia their possession, has excited
the suspicion that the Monarchi-
cal party in Brazil is behind the
uprising. Indeed, so strong is
the suspicion that when news
was received in Rio that the lat>
est expedition sent against the
insurgents had been cut to pieces,
serious riots directed against the
leaders of the Monarchical party
occurred in that city.
The last revolution in Brazil
showed very plainly that the vir-
tue Of MONARCHY" was far from
being extirpated. 1t is still strong
in a large faction of the body
polite, and there have been signs
lately that it has been doing a
quiet, but steady work of inocu>
lation. If, therefore, the suspi>
cion that the Monarchists are at
the. bottom of the Bahia outbreak
shall prove to be we'll founded,
no one need be surprised to hear
of uprisings in other parts of the
country, and the precipitation Of
a very serious condition of affairs
for the republic. Assuming that
the suspicion is we'll founded
and, under all the circumstances,
the assumption is quite a logical
one-the successes the Bahia in
surgents have met with in their
encounters with the government
troops are well calculated to en-
courage the Monarchists to vens
tule on a general movement for
the attainment of their ends.

Raleigh, N. c., March 15-The
assertion is now made that the
legislative act, which was drawn,
it is understood, by Governor
Russell's own hand, to take con
troll of the three hospitals for the
insane from the Democrats, is de-
fectiye and does not really repeal
the former charters of the hos
pitfalls, but re-enacts them and
gives the officers the same dutien
and rights as before. The old
boards of directors have retained
counsel and will act in concert, it
is understood. Among the coun-
sci are James E. Shepherd, F. 1.
Osborne, Bnsbee & Busbee, w.
C. Monroe, G. B. Aycock, Isaac
f. Dortch, and f. A. Daniels.
The new boards of directors are
called to meet next Thursday. The
act of the Republicans and boiling;

pitfalls is everywhere condemned.

A VIRGINIA
A Mob Gain Access to a Jail and
Desperately Wounds a Negro.

Lynchburg, March 49, Will
liam Clement, colored, who was
put ia the county Jail at Rustburg
last week for assaultiug Mr..
George Rosser, was taken from
his cell at an early hour this
morning and shot several times.
Shortly before 2 o'clock this
morning Jailor Cattle was
aroused by crowd of men. esti-
mated to number about forty,
who said that they had with
them a prisoner from Concord,
and asked the jailor to open the
Jail. AS soon as he had done this
they rushed by him and broke
into the cell where the negro
Clement was confined. Clement
fought SO fercely that although
shot four Or FIVE times and des>
perately wounded, he managed
to escape. The crowd, believing
that he would die shortly, then
dispersed, and this morning
Clement was found still alive by
the jailor and was locked up.
The crime for which Clement is
in prison is a very brutal one. He
had been spoken to by Mr.. George
Rosser, who lives les .sRustburg,
about having mistreated a team,
and in revenge he called Mr.. Ros-
ser out of the stable last Tuesday
and beat him with a stick most
cruelty about the head, breaking
the upper part of his cheek bone,
and would have killed him had he
not been driven off by other col
ored men.
In the struggle with the negro at
the Jail several of the mob had
their masks knocked off. The
negro claimed to have recognized
them, and it is stated that war
rants have been issued for theil
arrest.

TOWN AND COUNTRY HAND
AND ARM,

1t is gratifying to the people
of Goldsbo to know that the
farmers Of the surrounding coun
try are pleased with Goldsbor
as a tobacco market. The farmers
have found after trying other
markets, that they can bring or
send their tobacco to Goldsboro
and get for it the highest market
price. On this happy condition
both the farmers and town folks
are to be heartily congratulated.
The prosperity of the farmers of
the country contiguous to Colds
boro means prosperity to the
town. On the other hand, a
healthy, growing, thrifty town
means dollars in the farmers
pockets, and increase of wealth
for them on account of the in-
creased value of their property.
Suppose you blot out Colds
boro from the map, and in place
Of a town of six thousand souls,
have a county seat, a court house
a jail, and a population of 40 or
so people? There are in North
Carolina many county seats no
larger than that. Then thai
great boon to the farmer, the
home market. would be gone,
and many articles, such as fruit,
watermelons, wood, etc.. for
which they receive annually
thousands of dollars would be
absolutely worthless, and many
other kinds of produce which the
farmers now bring to market,
they would then be forced to
ship to large towns, and ofccurss
pay freight, commission for sell
ing and other expenses, thereby
receiving much less than they
now get. But more than that,
the value of the lands would des
crease No one will deny that
the nearer the farm is to market,
the mor valuable the farm.
Furthermore, the larger the
town, the more valuable are the
farms within reach of the town.
If Goldsboro had twelve thous-
and inhabitants instead of six
thousand, it is plain that every
farm in the county would be
worth mor than it is to-day. 1t
is self evident, the bigger the
towns, the mora valuable the
farms.
These things being true, it is
plain that the interests of the
country people and the interests
of the town people are the same.
The prosperity of one means
prosperity of the other They are
like the hand and the arm-de-
pendent one upon the other.

has there ever been a remedy that was
welcomed in so many intelligent, pru-
dent. homes where pains is taken
to get only the sbest in so vital a
matter. In such families al over the
country Pafne's Celery Compound is
the first. last and only remedy used.
Prof. Phelps had studied the nerves
in health and disease, when well-nour-
rished and when under-nourished, in
raen women and childrn years beforehe
looked for the remedy. Paine's Celery

professional life. It is the only remedy
that tho world could not lose to day at
any price.
Paine's Celery Compound induces
the body to take on solid flesh.

Compound as the one scientific spring
remedy, and it ~isuniversally prescribed
by them wherever there is great need
