Quoted this school the past two years,

Prof. Buchanan has made it his life
work, having been engaged in teaching
for twenty-three years, thirteen OF
which were spent in Durham. He also
taught in Raleigh and other places in
the State.
Boarding or day pupils can be ac-
commodated, and the charges are reas.

which is fine criterion.

Too Vile for Publication.

A clean newspaper IS worthy Of admit
ration and cOmmends itself of the con-
fdence and support Of the people. 1t
peddles out scandal as little as possible
consistent with publishing the news,
not going into revolving details. This
is especially true regarding those things
that do not concern the general public.
But there are things Of the scandal
type that become public property,
which the people have Il right to know
about, for the reason that they affect
the entire State and every citizen of
the State, and many modest journals
will publish them wholly or in part at
the risk Of being called immodest.
For instance, there was the case of
DR.. Smith at the penltentlary, charged
with undue intimacy with the female
criminal insane of whom he was placed
in charge. a most revolving affair.
Again, only few days ago, it came
to light that. Robert Hancock, the man
whom Gov. Russell had appointed
president Of the A. & n. G.. Railroad,
had robbed his wife's sisters daughter,
to whom he almost stood in the rela-
ton of parent, of the jewel Of pure
womanhood-her chastity. He lives
in Newbern and the Baptist church of
which he was a member, outraged by
his vile conduct, has expelled him from
membership.
Then, later, there comes from one
of the State farms, news Of the crlmi-
nal intimacy of those placed there by
the powers that be with the female
cOnvicts.
Ii is all too vile. What shame and
degradation has our old State come to!

is easily cultivated and well adapted to
the growth of fine bright tobacco, corn :,
small grains and grasses, fruits vege-
etables, &c. Peaches, apples, grapes
and strawberries do we'll, though they
are not cultivated as money crops.
The leading pursuit is farming, the
largest profit being found in the pro-
ductOn of tobacco, for which the IA

uarly noted.

here would do well. The section is
healthful, above the average, and it is

out from the shops of J. r. Neathery,

riages, buggies and wagons, I dropped

his business and loves his work.
The people of this section are fort
innate in having this establishment in
their midst. For the class Of work
executed and the line of vehicles han
died this enterprise would be credit
able to a much larger place.
Mr.. Neathery keeps in stock nice
line of high grade buggies, and sells
them at prices to suit the times. Being
at little expense he is prepared to offer
bargains that will be interesting to his
