Nathaniel r1acon's Funeral.

Since so much is being said and
written of late about Nathaniel Macon
the following account of his funeral
nearly 81 years ago will perhaps not
belwithout interest. The extract is from
the Warrenton On. c. Reporter, OF
date July 5, 1887:
We learn that at Mr.. Macon's fu-
neral. which took place at his late res
idence in Warren county. on the 18th
nit, the number of white persons
present was variously estimated at
from 1000 to 1900 besides several
hundred blacks.
When it is recollected that most OF
these persons must have come from a
distance some idea may be formed q
the veneration in which he was held BY
the people Of Warren. 1t is another
evidence of the goodness of Mr.. Macon =
heart, that by his express directions,
ample provision was made for the hos.
pitable entertainment of this numerous
company and matters were so ar
ranged that even the blacks were not
| suffered to GO away hungry and thirsty.
He gave minute orders about his in.
terment. and took especial care that
his partial friends should not hereafter
erect "the stored urn to indicate his
final resting place. He left a very
handsome estate, which he divided BY
| will to numerous relatives. An
anecdote is told Of him. which strongly
illustrates a prominent trait of bis
character, viz: Never to be influenced
in his actions by what the world might
say of him. 1t is said, that in his las,

the attending physician the amount o
his bill. remarking. that dead mer

Another Way to Look At 1t.

Ordinarily. in dealing with railroads.
it IS often the case that people see only
one side of the question, and that side
unfavorable 10 railroads. But there
are always two sides even if there is
corporation in it. aud the other side
is thus presented by the Monroe Jour
nal. which says:
1t is OF the greatest importance TO
the railroads that every possible re-
source of the State be developed, and
to this end they spend thousands Of
dollars annually. Why : To increase
their business and make their proper
ties grow in value every year. But
mind yOn. while working for their own
interest they work for ours as well.
One of two courses is open to the peo-
pie OF North Carolina and other South
ern States. which just now need every
possible help in their effort Of growth
and development. We can harass
and worry and cripple the railroads in
their efforts By such proceedings as
have been going on for months in this
State. and thus prevent any further in
vestments. or We can give them fair
treatment. fair rates. fair laws and
friendly hand. and trust to them to
help Us and themselves at the same
time.
We don't believe in allowing the
railroads TO dominate the politics of
the State. but what else can we expect.
if the influence Of the State is used IN
such way as to force them into poll
ties to protect their property: II the
railroads are kept out of the business
Of the government it is only fair that
the government keep out of the legi,i-
mate business of the railroads.

4 kNIGHTLY ACT

The latest Newbern scandal, which
draws attention momen,arily from
that in which Robert Hancock is the
principal figure, has at least one con-
spicuous feature which lifts it out of the
Hancock class. It will not do to
make hero out of Hill, whose hea d
instead Of his foot should perhaps
have been shot off, bu, there was
something knightly in his taking Of
his coat, after he had been shot, and
throwing It over the head of the girl
SO that she might not be identified.

cumstances he forgot himself and re-
membered her.-Charlo,te Obserr<r.

New YORK, Feb. 1.-THE E7enfng

"The correspondents of the Madrid
press have sent home foreboding mes

ace there are grave apprehensions and
scant courtesy. When l asked Score
tary Congosto to aid me in talking to
General Salano over securing the re-
opening of the cable for the messages
Of the Names officers, he coldly said
i, vas none of his business, that Cen
eral Salano was in sole charge. For
tunately that gentleman was courteous
and the messages went.
':In view Of this present attitude l

gosto, then the acting governor gener-
al, or, fulfilling the functions of that
responsible position, said to me the
night before the Maine had arrived
Consul General Lee had told him that
afternoon that warship would come.
Congosto belligerently objected. Gen
eral Lee then said: Remember, il
any trouble does occur, shall have
the whole feet here in four hours
Shortly after I saw Secretary Congosto
and he was very mad. He was also
indiscreet. He said to me: IF your
people only let US alone it would be
all right. Spain has put up with more
than any other nation would have
done. l have warned you that there
will be trouble if the Maine comes
here. Now bring your ships here. II

FIGHTING JOE" WHEELER.

1t is somewhat premature, but the
fact that General Joseph Wheeler, who
was Familiarity known during the late
civil war as "Fighting Joe," has ten
dered his services TO President Mckin-
ley in the event of war between the
United States and Spain, gives evil
dence that the men who wore the
gray are willing to fight for the old
flag as though there had never been
any war between the States. There
are thousands upon thousands of men
in the South who are willing to fight
in defence of the Union should their
services be needed, and the old flag
would find no ADLER defenders than the
men Of General Wheeler's class.
The patriotic services Of General
Fitzhugh Lee in Havana, and the offer
Of General Wheeler TO the President,
show very plainly where the men Of
the South would be found in the event
of foreign war with this country.
There is life in the old land yet, and
the patriotism of the Southern people,
is such that they need no urging to
unsheath their swords in the defence
Of the common country.-Norfolk

THERE WILL BE NO WAR.

There will be no war between the
United States and Spain. The Span
ism government is heavily in debt to
foreign bond holders and war with
this country or any other would injure
her chances Of paying them-interest
or principal-and where the pocket
nerve is touched patriotism, American
Ism, humanity, civil or religious lib
er,y are Of secondary consideration
or none al all.
The war between Greece and Tur-
key was a case in point. Does any
one believe for moment that Turkey 5
course would have been permitted by
the Powers but for her bonds held by
subjects Of these same Powers
So, We say there will be no war be-
