There is a man living in Wilson. N. C., fifty
four yeara of age, who never owed n cent to a
living soul in Ilia lifo, and. tut the records will
show, was the first man for the past thirty
yfttrH to pay nib taxes to the sheriff, Though
a blacksmith and plough maker by trade, he
cuts and makes his own clothing, when en
gaged at this work if there is a call at the shop
his wife goes to the uilvlt ettd will shoe a horse,
brace a plough, npiot an axe, Hr perform any
other joi> in that line with as much skill as her
husband.
A gentleman one evening was seated near a
lovely woman, when the ootnpany around him
were proposing conundrums to each other.
Turning to his companion, he said, “ Why is a
* lady unlike a mirror ?” She “ gave it up."
11 Because,” said the rude fellow, “ a mirror
reflects without speaking, nut a lady speaks
v ithout reflecting.” “ And why are you un
like a luirroi !” asked the holy. He could not
hell. “ Because a mirror is smooth and polish
ed, ahtt you tre rough and unpolished.”
Ruled Out.

"knowß of a Washington young lady, a
very excellent n anager in point of toilet, who
received tliia winter throe different invita
tions to l alls. She has had but cite btlll dress,
a beautiful white crepe, brought here from
China by a sailor brother. Go to these balls in
the same dress she would not, and she could
not talk papa into buying anything new j so
she wore the white crepe to the first bath and'
had it dyed pink for the second, had the dye
extracted and the dress re-dyed bide ft>r the
third, and all for the few dollars her father
gave her for gloves, fans, etc If she receives
another invitation to a party she says Bhe will
have the blue dye taken mitj and have tt White

a gentleman who was seated resigned His place
in tavor of a slender, pale woman, whb eairied
a large child in her arms and was being jost

X Glimpse of Medertil Washington.
One other scene may properly be ad
ded to tliis brief record of the stuggle
and triumph of old New York. There
caine a sunshiny day in April 1798, when
George Washington, President elect of
the United S ates by the unanimous
voice of the people, stood on the balco
ny in front of the Senate chamber in the
old Federal Hall on Wall street, to take
the oath ot office. Ati immense multi
tude filled the streets BDd the windows
and roofs of the adjoining houses. Clad
in a dark brown cloth of American man
ufacturc, with hair powdered, and w'th
white silk stockings, silver shoe buckles
and steel billed dress sword, the hero
who had led the colonies to thiir inde
pendence came modestly forward to take
up the burdens that peace had brought.
Profound silence tell upon the multitude
as Washington responded solemnly “I
swear—so help me God.”
Then, amid cheers, the display of
Hags, and the ringing of all the hells in
the city, our first President turned tq
face the duties lus countrymen had im
posed upon hinii In eight ot those who
would have tnade ntt idol of him.
Waslrfflgtou’s first act was to seek the
aid Of other aid than liis'own. In the
calm sunshine of that April afternoon,
fragrant with the presence of seedtime
ani-tlie premise of harvest* wO leave
him on his knees ffi old St. Paul’s, boWed
with the simplicity of a child at the feet
of the supreme ruler of the universe,—
[Scribner.

started at a gallop to take immediate
charge of the pursuit on the Cent* mile
turnpike, hut was soon overtaken by a
courier from Manassas, with a note ad
dressed to me by Col. Thomas G. Khett,
of Gen Johnston's alaft. who had been
left there in the morning to forward that
General's troops as they might arrive by
ml from Winchester. Colonel Hfaelt
thereby informed me that a strong body
of Feocrfii troops had tlofiSed ihe Hull
Kun at Union Mills fold, on tottr right,
' and was advancing on Manasflas, our de
! pot of supplies; Which had befell nerenn

I cate this important dispatch to General
Johnston, and both of us believing the
information to he authentic, I undertook
to repair to the threatened quarter with
KWelV's and ffolmes’ brigades, at that
moment near the Lewis House, " here
they had just arrived, too late to take
part in the action. V* ill’ th-su troopsjl
engaged to attack ihe enemy vigorously
before he con'd effect a lodgment on our
side of Hull Him, but asked to be rein
forced as soon as practicable by such
troops as could be spared from the Cell*

Having reached the neat' vicinity of
Union Mills ford without meeting any
enemy, 1 ascertained, to my surprise,

turned and found them, between halt

lets This will explain to you why the
partial “retrograde movement,” to which
you refer, was made, ami why no sus
tained vigorous pursuit of McDowell's
army was made tha* evening.
Any pursuit of the Federals the next j
day towards their rallying point, at and
around the Long Bridge, over the Poto
mac* could have led to no possible mili
tary advantage, protected as that posi
tion was by a system of field works. No
movement upon Wa-hington by that

1770 NEfT rOffAT 187 0
Eighteen hundred an sevel.ty.mx is the
Centennial year. It is also the year in which
nil Opposition House of Representatives, the
first since the ivar, w be in pow'erat Wash
ington ; and the war °f thf twenty-third elec
tion, of a PresidetH of the United afctutes. All
of events are sure to be of great interest
and importance, especially the two latter; and
all of them and everything connected with
them a ill be fully and freshly reported and
expounded in Thb Sun.
The Opposition Hofise of Representatives;
taking up the line of inquiry opened years ago
by The Sun, will sternly and diligently inves
tigate the corruptions and misdeeds of Grant’s
bdmimstiTtion ; and it will, it is to be hoped,
lay the foundation for anew and bett. r period
ill cur national histojy. Of all this The Sun
will contain complete and accurate accounts,
furnishing its readers with early and trustwor
thy information upon these absorbing topics!
The twenty-third Presidential election, with
the preparations for it, will, be memorable as
deciding upon Grant’s aspirations for a third
term of power and plunder, and still more as
deciding who shall be the candidate of the
party of Reform, and as electing .that candi
date. Concerning all these subjects, those
who read The Sun will have the constant
means of being thoroughly well in farmed.
The Weeki.v Sun, which Httfe attained a
circulation of over eighty tlib’flSAhd copies, al
ready bds its readers ifi Sfety State and Ter
ritory, And we trust tfiat tho year 1876 will
see their numbers doubled. It will continue
to be a thorough newspaper. All the general
news of the day.will be found in it, condensed
when unimportant, at full length when of mo
ment ; and always, we trust, treated in it dlefir;
interesting and instructive m mm r.
It is our aim to make the Weekly Sun the
best family newspaper in the world, and we
shall continue to give in its columns a large
amount of miscelkineous reading, such as sto
ries, tales, poems, scientific intelligence and
agricultural information, for which we are not
able to make room in our daily edition. The
agricultural department especially is one of its
prominent features. The fashions are also reg
ularly reported in its columns ; and so are the
nniFkets of every kind.
The >V eeklt Sun, eight pages, with fifty
six broad columns, is only $l2O a year, pos
tage prepaid. As this prlfle barely repays the
cost of the paper, no disebunt can be made
from this rate tb cliibs, agents postmasters, or
anyone.

Dyspepsia
Dyspepsia is the most discouraging and dis
tressing disease man is heir to. Americans are
prtitidularly subject to this disease and its ef
fects ; such as sourßtomach, sick headache, ha
bitual costiveness, heartburn, water-brash;
gnawing and burning pains in the pit of The
stomach, coming up of the food, coated tongue,
dlsrtgteeable taste lil the mouth, impure blood
and all diseases of the Stomach and Liver. —
Two doses of Green's Axhjust Flower will re
lieve you at once, and there positively is not a
case in the United States it will not cure. If
you doubt this go to your Druggist , Dr. W. H:
Lee & Son, and get a sample bottle for 10 eent.l
and try it. Regular size 75 cents.
