one Of the great evils OF unbinding the
feet is that after the deformity Of the

The growth seaward of Dungeness
Point. in England. caused by the east
ward drift of shingle, has caused the
erection of a new lighthouse there to
become necessary, and the contract has
been placed with Deal firm to carry
out the work for $4,000. This will
be the third lighthouse erected upon
Dungeness Point. The first, built about
sixty years ago. is now mile inland,

A ESTIMATE.

We desire to commend the. southern
people, and particularly the editors,
for their keen perception and correct
estimate of character. The Charleston
News and Courier says:
"Of all the governors that have Wis
tied Charleston since the opening of
the exposition there is none finer look
ing than Governor Richards of Wyo-
ing. his face is mild yet denotes great
strength of character n determine
ton. His features are clear cut and
his eyes are as soft as those of a wo-
man, and when engaged in converse,
tion they light up with animation.
Governor Richards is a modest
man. He does a great deal, but he
never gives out what he does Or what
he intends to do. For instance. he
came to Charleston yesterday morn
ing. No one knew that he was com
ing and consequently there was no one
to meet him and extend the glad hand.
He came quietly and alone and wend-
ed his way to the exposition grounds,
arriving there just at the conclusion
of the exercises of the North Carroll
mans. A member OF the Young Mems
Business league reception committee
learned that he was in the audience,
and hunted him up and escorted him
to the stage and presented him to Gov
ernor McSweeney and Governor Ay-
cock and the oficial members OF the
North Carolina party. The meeting of
the governors was happy and they
chatted together pleasantly.
Governor Richards is pleased with
the exposition and will remain here
until Nondly."
