Letter TO Jerry Harris.
Goldsboro, n. G.

Dear Sir: You buy your horse
shoes and nails: your grandfather,
if he was a blacksmith, made 'em.
You can't afford to hammer them
out by hand, when you can buy as
good, or better perhaps, readymade
to your hand, for little more than
the cost of the iron.
What do you think of a painter
who goes on buying his linseed oil
and whitelead, and mixing, and tint
ing by hand, and charging his time
for work that is far better-dOne than
he can do it, done by machinery,
done as you horseshoes and nails are
made.
Mistake isn't it?
He is wasting his chance in the
world There is no better stuff to do
business with than good horseshoes
and paint; and no better work than
putting them on. Good horseshoes
well put on: It's the putting 'em on
that makes you a blacksmith: no
matter who makes 'em.
Who wants to go back to old times,
and make his own horseshoes?
Between us two, that painter don't
know how to make good paint-he
used to; but paint has run away from
him.
Yours truly,
F. w. DEvOE & Co.

Keep Up Jh9 Balance.

It has been truthfully said that
any disturbance of the even balance
of health causes serious trouble. No
body can be too careful to keep this
balance up. When people begin to
lose appetite, or to get tired easily, the
least imprudence brings on sickness,
weakness, or debility. The system
needs a tonic, Graves it, and should
not be denied it; and the best tonic
of which we have any knowledge is
Hoods Sarsaparilla. What this med
icine has done in keeping healthy peo-
pie healthy, in keeping up the even
balance of health, gives it the same
distinction as a preventive that it
enjoys as a cure. Its early use has
illustrated the wisdom of the old
saying that stitch in time saves
nine. Take Hoods for appetite,
strength, and endurance.

New York, May 12.
Miss Minnie Raynor, of Colds

3rd, from the result of an operation
for appendicitis, which was perform
ed few hours before her death.
She had been in i'll health for sew

she seemed to be rapidly improving,
then grew suddenly worse, and her
physicians deemed an operation
necessary. From some cause blood
poisoning set in almost Immediately,
resulting fatally.
Miss Raynor was a member of the
the triumphant faith of the Gospel.
A few weeks previous, she wrote to
an absent sister that she was glor-
iously happy, and had perfect peace
in God and felt as if she would like
to bear the burdens Of the whole
world. She was conscious to the
last, and few minutes before she
passed away, she talked to her saint
ed mother, whose spirit seemed to
be lowering near her, and in re-
sponse to her sisters questioning,
she expressed wish to go to her
Saviour and be at rest. Then clos
ing her eyes she peacefully and
sweetly fell asleep in Jesus.
A large number Of relatives sur
vive her, who deeply lament her
death.
The remains were temporarily in
tered in the Episcopal Cemetery in
this city.

DIR. MILLER DEFINES HIS
POSITION.
Gofdsboro, May II.

GOIdSDOrO, May IL.
EDITOR ARGUs:-At the risk of
offending the intelligence of some of
my friends who antagonize my views
ON the appropriateness of holding
Memorial services in honor of our
Confederate soldier on the Sabbath,
I will say that there is often a vast
difference between funeral services
and memorial services and the two
must not be confounded. The lay
ing of corner stones of monuments
and buildings in honor to and in
memory of men and women who
have blessed mankind, and brought
honor to their names and country,
are Memorial services; but because
these services are necessarily secular
lied the Sabbath is not considered
an appropriate day for such. I re-
specfull submit that as usually con-
Quoted, the Memorial services in
honor of our dead heroes are secular
lied to such a degree as to make
them inappropriate for Gods holy
day.
yield to no man or woman in my
devotion to the memory of our Con-
federate dead. I gave four years of
my young life to the Confederacy,
joining as private in the ranks;
two brothers fell on the field of bat
tie, as did many other relatives: and
if memorial services in their honor
when held on the Sabbath consisted
in prayer and appropriate song,
and laying of flowers upon their
graves, then no offence would be
done. But when fire companies are
called out, the playing Of bands, the
firing Of guns and speech, which,
however admirable for another day,
is delivered, often of a political char
acter, / must beg the privilege as a
citizen and as a Christian man, to
say the occasion is SO secularized
that another day tran the Sabbath
would be more appropriate.
The tenth of May has often fallen
on Sunday, but never before has the
dav been observed as it has been
this year in our city, nor have I
knowledge that anywhere else in
our good old State, except in Ra-
leigh, and then the Oration was
omitted in Difference to the sacred
ness of the day. In our city obser-
vances / believe horses were ruled
out of the procession, in Difference, /
suppose, to the ''moral sentiment" of
the T Furitans.
One more word and I am done
with this subject. In all that / have
written on this question / have not
intentionally reflected in a personal
way upon anyone connected with the
tenth of May observance; my only
object has been to enter a protest
against what I conscientiously be-
lieve tends to a loss Of a proper re-
gard for the day on which God rest
ed and which he blessed and hal
lowed.
