Governor Jaryis has accept the invitation to delayer the annual address and our citizens we are sure will not so far forget themselves as to give him, the highest officer within our Commonwealth, anything less than a right royal reception, Mr. Willis P. Hazard, of West Chester, the distinguished specialist, will attend the Fair and will deliver an address on the Guenon system of judging cattle.

Of this gentleman the Providence, R. Journal of recent date said For years Mr. Hazard has been impressed with the importance of the Guenon system of judging milking qualities by the estutcheon or milch mirror. This system was discovered by Francis Guenon, who Mas born in France in 1796. As early as 1822 he had mastered the method but he did not make it known to the public until about 1837.

Polk, Tennessee's defaulting Treasurer has been convicted of embezzlement and sentenced to twenty years in the penitentiary and to pay a lino of 4.30,000. There arc thousands of Democrats in North Carolina who do not depend on either the Raleigh News-Observer or the "Wilmington Star for their political pabulum, therefore the fight between these two luminaries matter ii tie to them. The Philadelphia Press thinks that ibc appointment of the son of Senator Vance, of North Carolina, to a lieutenancy in the army, indicates that the work of reconciliation netwecn the sections is making, as much headway as one could expect in this kind of weather. We cordially agree with the Star on the following: "Journalism has grt indeed to a low ebb in North ('aroljna when an editor is not allowed to express an opinion of his own without being insulted. But the attempt to act up a dictatorship will not work.

There are men self-respecting, intelligent, honorable men, who will not dance when the organ plays." Somehow or other the impression lia.s gotten abroad that the preminms at the Wheat arid Cattle Fair to be hU4 here August 30th and 31st, are not open to competion from this county. This is a mistake and calculated to injure the exhibition. This matter ha been called to our attention and the assertion made that the incorrect rumor first started in the columns of the Raleigh News-Observer. We call the especial attention of ur reader to the beautiful poem by John Henry Boner on our fourth page. It breathes so sweetly a spirit of purest poesy, and is so unmistakably Carolinian in all of its feeling and that it must find a place in every piper in the State, and occupy enviaido ftiche near the hearts of the people whose lives are spent amid the moon pfcjes, of which he so beautifully writes.

The Christian or Campbellite hurch of yirgm'a- and North Carolina, have decided to establish a female college in this State at some point conveniently located for both States.

The Unfortunate Escapade H4 Little Brindle Steer.

Last Saturday Uncle Ned came to town, and after having disposed of his load of evaporated fruit to J. E. Gilmer drove his empty cart round to Crawford's and dismounted to purchase some hardware. Having procured the desired articles and placed them in his cart, he mounted his seat and was just about to gather in the clothesvline reins, when a jet of water darted out of the nozzle of a hose connected to a neighboring hydrant, and struck the little crushed strawberrv steer between the sad brown eyes. A scene of direst confusion ensued.

The little steer doubtless astonished at the sudden onslaught of the water jet, lit out up Liberty street at a speed which had hitherto been undiscovered, and whichwould have made "Raurus" blush for very shame. As the outfit hurriedly sauntered by the "American Hotel," it knocked over an old apple woman's stand, quickly passed ou to a lamp post which generously relieved it of a wheel that "wabbled" anyhow and getting away from the sidewalk flew up the middle of the street with a rapidity which suggested the belief that the Louisville Exposition would be reached by sun down. This doubtless would have been the terminus had not" a huge stone obstinately refused to get out of the way. L'ncle Ned, had up to this juncture held the seat with a tenacious grasp and himself with an heroic reserve, both of equal interest to the passing observer. As the solitary wheel struck the rock the concussion was so great as to rupture the gearing that hitched the steer to the vehicle, and sent him flying onward with increased velocity, leaving the cart behind.

Simultaneous with this sudden movement Uncle Ned was hurled up into the air while his old hat apex down hastened back to terra jerma, doubtless being mistaken by the neighbors as another Texas meteor, while the old gentleman himself was probably thought to be a recently discovered comet. His remains fell prone into the dust and accompanied by vociferous yells from the old darkey. A passer by exclaimed "Get up, old man, you're not hurt." 'M dead boss, 'M "dead, I swar 'M dead;" and as lie raised himself on his feet, he continued to express a very emphatic belief in his having passed in his checks. When Uncle Ned arrived home that night the little brindle steer was quietly munching corn out of the trough and looking for the word as though nothing had happened to mar the serenity of his rural existence. PUT A BRAND ON HIM.

''Women are a necessary evil," he said, bringing down his fist hard on the counter to emphasize the heartless remark. It was in the village store at West Milton, Saratoga County, and the speaker was the central figure of a group of bucolic philosophers. He was homely, slovenly and sixty." 'There's where I differ from you altogether, said Mr. George T. Graham, of tlie same place.

"Women are mostly what men make 'em. When husbands are brutes wives will fall into submission or make home hot for the men and they're unnatural in either character. Love them, and especially be good to them when they're sick, and you'll have no trouble. There's my own wife, now. She's suffered a good deal with dyspepsia, nervous prostration and oher ailments that took tlie bloom off her cheeks and the spring out of ler steps.

Well, she saw an advertisement of PARKER'S Tonic and thought it would be just the thing for her case. Gentlemen, I sent five miles after a bottle. She took it. I sent again after more. So several time3.

Trouble? Why ifyou could see how much good it has done her you would say that women are the greatest of God's blessings, and Packer's Toxic is the next." This preparation, which has been known as Pakkee's Ginob Tonic, will hereafter be called simply Pa it Kin's Toxic. This change has been rendered necessary by substitutes imposed upon their customers by unprincipled dealers under the name of ginger; and as ginger is. really an unimportant flavoring ingredient, we drop the misleading word TWo ino hvrevrr ift itiel and til iwttlea remaining in the hands of dealers, wrapped under the name of Parkkb's Gingeb Toxic contain the genuine medicine if the fac-simile signature of Hiscox 4 Co. is at the bottom of the outside wrapper. no32 4w n-H-E-O-fMT-I-S-M- Aa it is far aU T.ainrol 3i-xases of tlie AND BOWELS.

is "that they are expected to subordinate every interest of the people of the county to the promotion of partisan considerations in the premises." Jcsso! jesso! But they are expected to do such thing, unless choosing elect a Democrat in preference to a Republican is "insubordination." We do cot ask the magistrates of this county to elect a Democrat simple because he i a Democrat, but we do ask, all else being equal, that a member cf the dominant party, the party of the PEOPLE, be chosen to the position in question. It sounds mighty strange for a Republican sheet to offer the shadow of an objection to a Democrat of equal ability being elected to an office that party having a majority of the votes, when tb-e Republicans believe so intensely in the theory that "to the vic tor belongs the spoils." Our farseeiug, but nevertheless forgetful colemporary, says, "We can imagine no calamity so great or so injuriously affecting a people as that their courts of justice should be placed under partisan rule and bias." And then further on, says, "We believe in party and politics in its place, but we submit of all places out of place for it is in a court." Dearly beloved, let us shake on this! ya verily is our heart filled with rejoicing, even to excess, that it has come to pass we have discovered one thing on which our brother scribe and ourself can agree. On the United Slates Supreme Court Bench, the highest tribunal thi side of Heaven itself, sits one poor little lonely Democrat and along side of him are nine Republicans, one of whom, Stanley Mathews, was appointed by President Garfield because of a written understanding he had with Jav Gould, who coiit i -ibnte 1 a large sum to the nuliouai fund, as has been disclosed by Drsey of Stir Route fame. Oil yes, brother, we cordially agree with you that of all places where politics is out of place it is in a court. We can imagine no calamity so great or so injuriously affecting a people as that their courts of justice should be placed under partisan rule and bias, Now let us shake'! A LETTER FROM CAI'T.

Editor Sentinel. I certainly do wish for the respect, esteem and good will of every respectable North Carolinian: and as everv section of the State is dear to me, I have no such prejudice as you mention, to withdraw.

In regard to Winston I have lost no fitting opportunity to commend the enterprise of her citizens, to cite their thrift and management of an example for others, to praise her tobacco ami her tobacco interests, and to express the pride and pleasure with which I view her wonderful growth her merited prosperity and the culture and refined taste displayed in many ways and particularly in the beautiful architectural designs of her residences. If these sentiments often expressed be the offspring or evidence of "prejudice," I do not comprehend the meaning; of language, In regard to the particular item, to which reference was made as showing f' Capt. 4he's Bias," please understand that I never saw it until my attention eaUod t4t-ly yaws article. Mr. Olds for purposes not connected with my paper, addressed inquiries to different parts of the State in relation to the tobacco crop among them Winston.

He received some replies, but got no answer from the gentleman addressed at Winston. Having used the information as he desired, he prepared the item to which you refer. Winston was not mentioned merely because he got no information from there. That was not unnatural. Another word.

I heard some months ago that there was a rumor in circulation at Winston that I would not print Winston items furnished me for publication. No Winston item was ever received by me for publication that was not published. Indeed during the four years I have been publishing a paper I have almost continuously furnished a copy to some resident of Winston without charge, with the yf'uh and hope of getting communications relative to Winston for publication. I beg leave to say this through your paper because I am unwilling that the good people of Winston should be under a misapprehension about this matter. Very Respectfully, S.

G. BYNUM, Aug. 9, '83, Qermanton, Stokes N. C. will nn i iii i mi I sisted in noting the connection between the" milking qualities of cows and the patch of upward growing hair on the back of the udder and adjacent parts.

At first this connection was merely observed. No good reason was known by Guenon for the fact that' a cow with a large and well-formed escutcheon would give more milk and give it longer, than a cow wijh a small and broken escutcheon. He observed the fact, modern anatomical study suggests the explanation. The direction of the growth of hair is supposed to be determined by the direction of the i flow of blood in the arteries which nourish it. The arteries which supply the milk secreting glands, also by innumerable ramifications, supply the skin over a portion of the surface of the udder and the adjacent parts.

The larger these secreting glands the i larger will be the flow of milk, and larger will be the patch of skin over which the ramifications of the arteries extend. The extent of this patch is shown by the direction of the hair.
