A Happy Suggestion that Ought to be
Acted Upon.

Is Monroe still alive and the pOliti-
cal leader of the commemorative of
Virginia and North Carolina as he
was century ago? 1t looks so, for
there seems to have dawned q new
EZRA of good feeling' following the
recentdisagreement about the inscrip-
ton upon a certain monument. The
result justified North Carolina s faith
that Virginia was too broad to re-
sent the right of North Carolina to
write any inscription on it's mOnu-
inert it thought proper to comment
crate the valOr of it's Confederate
soldiers. AS further evidence that
Nirginians entertain the most friend
ly feeling toward the people of North
Carolina, the following editorial ap-
peared in Saturdays Richmond
mes-Dispatch:
To the Press of North Carolina and
Notwithstanding:
We have had bout with our North
Carolina friends concerning the claim
which they set up for their soldiers in the
war between the States But the max
luS-up Is 50 sweet tnat we are GLAD OF the
tilt. 1t is very much like the traditional
lovers quarrel-as we'll as wecan remem-
Der. The Charlotte Observer. the Char
lotte Evening Chronicle and the Raleigh
News and Observer all speak us fair, and
we return the greeting with interest.
The brethren of the North Carolina
press are very pleasant to us. and we
wish that we knew them better. Prompt
ed by that desire, we make a proposal.
We move that the North Carolina Press
Association and the Virginia Press Asso-
citation hold Joint meeting next sum-
mer. Why not? 1t matters not to us
whether the meeting be held on Virginia
soil or North Carolina soil, just so the
brethren get together in neighborly in
tercourse. AS for that. we might meet
IN one State this year and the other State
next year, for we feel sure that if the
brethren did but come together once they
would like to repeat the experience
What say the North Carolina breth-
rem, and what say the Virginia brethren
to the proposal?'
That is a happy suggestion of the
esteemed 1imes-Dispatch. The News
and Observer seconds the motion.
What say you, President Warner and
Secretary Sheriff.?

FIRST At APPOMATTOx.

Under the above heading in his ac-
count OF the North Carolina monu-
ment unwilling at Appomattox last
week, Editor Hart OF the Farmville,
VA Herald, who attended the ex-
ercises, says this:
Differ as we may about the propri-
ETY. OF the inscription upon her monu-
ment which was unveiled on last
Monday we must all agree that North
Carolina will go down in history as
the first at Apppmattox with men,
orial to her dead heroes who once
wore the gray"
Hon. H. A. London, Chairman OF
theNorth Carolina Appomattox Com
mission, raped for order, and the
Rev. J. A. Weston led in prayer. At
it's close Governor Montague was
presented, who in words few but thrill
ing with eloquence, redolent OF the
spirit of brotherly love and delivered
as only our Montague can, welcomed
North Carolina's Governor, citizens OF
the Old North State, Ex-Confederates
from our sister State who added SO
much of the glory to the Confederate
history.
Governor Glenn followed and sim
pie justice compels us to say, and we
say it without envy, or jealousy, or
any such spirit, that he defended the
inscription Oh that memorial pile with
clearness and much force. And in
doing so he was as courteous as he
was cogent, as polite as he was per-
suasive Turning to Governor Mon
tague he said, "Virginia is too great
to be small, too magnanimOus to be
envious, too proud of spirit to be bit
ter OF soul, and has she not given to
the ages RObt. +. Lee and StOnewall

massive mould and massive mind and
made a most pleasant impression on
all who were fortunate enough to
hear him. The "Old North State

standing the band playing a soft,
sweet accompaniment.

mortal ode, Last at Appomattox, .
a short address by Gen. W.P. Roberts
and then the unwilling. All hail to
North Carolina for inaugurating a
monument which we hope will mean
the converting OF historic Appomat-
toN into place of national and in
terstate interest. The histories OF
Gettysburg and Chickamauga have
been carved in stone and why not
that of AppOmattOX?

Young Men Wanted.
Durham Sun.


Every young man i'll Durham is
wanted! Wanted from the street
corners, from the loafng rendezvous,
from the idler's promenade; turn your
steps into the highway of noble aim
and earnest work. There are prizes
enough for every successful worker,
crowns enough for every honorable
head that goes through the smoke of
conflict to victory
There is within the young man an
upspringing of lofty sentiment which
contributes to his elevation, and
though there are obstacles to be sur
mounted and difficulties to be van
quished, yet with the truth for his
watchword, and leaning on his own
noble purposes and exertions, he may
crown his brow with hOnors. He
may never wear the warriors GRIM
son wreath, the poets chaplet of
bays, or the statesman's laurels,
though no grand universal truth
may at his bidding be confessed to
the world, though it may never be
his to bring to successful issue a
great political resolution-to be the
founder OF republic whose name
shall be "a distinguished star in the
constellation of nations more.
though his name may never be heard
beyond the limits of his own neigh
borhood, yet is his mission none the
less high and holy one
But why do SO few young men of
early promise. whose wise hopes, pur-
poses and resolves were radiant as
the colors of the rainbow, fail to dis
tinguish themselves? The answer is
obvious. They are not willing to de-
vote themselves to the toilsome cul-
ture which is the price of success.
Whatever aptitude for particular
pursuits nature may donate to her
favorite children, she conducts none
but the laborious and the studious to
distinction

"Now that man has the sort of re-

observant citizen yesterday after

tenance, strobe by with sprightly
step. "That man always wears a
genial ceuntenance, has a kindly
smile aud cheerful word for every
person he meets, loves a good Joke
and takes plenty OF hearty exercise.
He keeps the physical man SO healthy
that he can devote all OF his mind to
the spiritual ills of others. Ii he
moped around with long face he'd
have to devote considerable thought
to his liver. If folks up in Heaven go
around with long faces | don't want
to go there, and furthermore | don't
believe we are going to be bothered
with livers in Heaven either. Give
me the cheerful religion every time.

Cures For witchery.

Rev. Joseph Doderidge in his "Notes'
Of the Settlement and Indian Wars In
Pennsylvania and Virginia." in that
portion Of the work treating Of witch
craft says: 'The diseases Of children
supposed to be inflicted by witchcraft
were those Of dropsy Of the brain and
the ricketts,. These were diseases which
could neither be accounted for nor
cured, consequently they were ascribed
to some supernatural agency. For the
cure of diseases inflicted by witches
the picture Of the supposed witch was
drawn on a stump or piece Of board
and shot at with a bullet containing
little bit OF silver. This silver bullet
transferred a painful and sometimes
mortal spell on that part Of the witch
corresponding with the part Of the pic
ture struck by the bullet"

Don't coddle Rubber Plants.

OF all the freak remedies that are
sometimes proposed for sick house
plants those which are recommended
for rubber plants are the worst. They
run all the way from applying beef
steak and castor oil to the roots to coat
ing the leaves with milk. Give your
plants n properly prepared soil and
sufficient light and keep the leaves free
from dust and scale, and you will find
no necessity for such nostrums as
these. Make 1t a practice to go over the
plants daily with a soft cloth and re-
move any indication of dust. scale or
nsects.-Country Life In America.

Religious and Irreligious Towns


The southwest corner of Vermont
was settled on the principle that men
of like religious belief mostly keep
together. The Congregationalists went
to Bennington, the Episcopalians went
to Arlington, the Baptists to Shafts
bury, and those who professed no par
ticular religion to Pownal. The stamp
then given has never been lost. From
the first settlement TO this day the
three towns first named have been
almost unique among country towns Of
that size for the strength of the churches.
of the given denomination, and these.
denominations have almost monopo--
lized these towns. These three towns
have also been in good repute for pro-
gressive civilization.
As for Pownal, no church las ever
been able to thrive there, nor has
civilization thrived; though it is the
town next adjoining Williams college,
and two presidents of the United
States have taught school in the same
school house in Pownal, Intelligence
aud progress have not developed much
among the Pownalese. Last spring
Pownal was in the papers OF the scene
of two white-cap affairs within month
or so.-Truth Seeker.
