A careful inspection of last Sundays
twelve page Messenger will reveal the
fact that there is but little if any of
it that is not readable, and nothing that
can injure. The aim is to get up an
enjoyable, serviceable, improving issue
every Sunday. A very able southern
religious weekly, The Nashville,
(Tenn.) Christian Advocate, of the 18th
inst. said this:
There are signs that the day of the
extrayagantly big newspaper is pass
ing away. That these signs may not
prove delusive, is to be sincerely
desired. We never see one of the big
dailies of from t~wenty-four to fifty
pages without a feeling of disgust. The
most of the matter that these pages
contain is the purest drivel, unworthy
of a moments notice, and much of it
is a sort of neral sewage, defiling
everything with which it comes in con-
tact. That it should nave readers
enough to warrant it's publication, is a
serious reflection upon the intelligence
Of the age"

The Greenville Daily Reflector settles
the question as to Henry Wyatt's ma
tivity. 1t says:
Henry Wyatt was not a native Of
North Carolina, but was born in the
city of Richmond, Va. His father, john
Wyatt, came to Greenville from Rich
mOnd some years before the war, and
engaged work at the coach shops Of
James Nelson, then located on the cor
ned of Pitt and Third streets. Finding
that he could get permanent work he
sent back to Richmond after his son
Henry, then a little boy about 4 years
old The two went to live with a WO-
man o as Miss Cloudy who had a
house on Pitt street about 100 yards
south of Fifth street, the place now
owned by Daniel Foreman's children.
Henry Wyatt grew up in Greenville,
and was nearly grown when the war
came on. When companies were being
here he wanted to join one
of them out his father objected because
of his age. Young Wyatt then ran
away and went to Tarboro where he
joined a company"
We said yesterday hat we believed
he was born in Richmond. It has been
stated since the day he was killed at
the skirmish at Bethel, Va.

barrassing, but the president is loath
to act. 1t is hoped he a be induced to
