Crops About Warren.
The following is from our Warren
correspondent under date of last Mon
day: "Chinch-bugs are not near so
numerous in the Blackjack section as
they generally are at this time of the
wear. If we continue to have good
seasons, the old corn will soon be in a
state that they cannot damage it much.
The younger corn is also looking nice,
and the prospect for full crop of corn
is more promising than it generally is
at this season of the year."

"God's Love-"
Charlotte Observer, Monday: Rev.
T. M. Lowry, who represents the syn
cd of North Carolina in its work for the
Negro in the school at North Wilkes
boro preached in the First Presbyteri-
an church yesterday morning and
evening. His subject in the forenoon
was, Goods Love-" based on the sew
enth and eighth verses of the fifth
chapter of Romans. He discussed first
the freeness of Gods love; then the
greatness. We can get Gods love by
the right of purchase; the right OF
labor; the right of free bestowal
based upon request or petition. This
love is great in what it accomplishes
for US; in saving US. Mr.. Lowry illus
trated his points clearly and forcibly.
The sermon was listened to most at
tentively. After its delivery, Mr..
Lowry presented the cause which he
especially represents in the North
Wilkesboro school. The work of this
school is first to make Negroes Christi
ans and then industrious. The work
is prospering and bids fair to increase
